[00:00] <El_Presidente> good morning, i recently installed intrepid but i have a problem with my sound within wine, when i kill pulseaudio it works like a charm but with pulseaudio i have an extreme choppy sound any idea to solve that?
[00:00] <kpthunder> does anybody know why a mouse (which currently works fine in windows, linux mint 8.04, and ubuntu 8.04) would fly to the right side of the screen in 8.10? I recorded a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6ExRumWmSk
[00:00] <Scunizi> Flannel, I'm using the one on my laptop and want to switch to the external usb drive that use to be in my desktop
[00:00] <psiforce> youssrr: sure does
[00:00] <ldiamond> How do I get ubuntu to allow me to put my laptop in sleep mode (adding the option in the shutdown menu + making it automatic when I close the lid)
[00:00] <psiforce> youssrr: running firefox from the command line I get "*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPObject 0x4846e20 is not valid!"
[00:01] <Hydrant> Hey all... I think I might have to downgrade my kernel from the one with Intrepid back down to what I had with Hardy... is there a general way to do this via apt-get ?
[00:01] <crtoe> SkinnYPuPp: i don't get the windows hate. it has its place. if you game, for the most part, it's much easier on windows than on linux. not having a go at either, just saying that's how the market is right now and to hate on either one of them absolutely, seems very emotionally based
[00:01] <Flannel> Scunizi: Alright, you'll need to boot to a liveCD and rename the /home folder (thats on your /)
[00:01] <jNoxx> I had problem
[00:01] <youssrr> kpthunder, did you look to make sure your speed and sensitivity are not all the way up in mouse settings?
[00:01] <Drizzel> kpthunder: that has happened to me the entire time I've been using Ubuntu.. On any rls
[00:01] <a2828> anyone can help me
[00:01] <a2828> to try to fix it
[00:01] <jrib> a2828: -ENOCONTEXT
[00:01] <a2828> when i try to use it on linux i can't connect
[00:01] <jNoxx> With sleep or hibernate..
[00:01] <Flannel> Scunizi: since, otherwise you'll be trying to mount the external drive to /home, which already exists as a folder inside of /
[00:01] <kpthunder> yes, my sensitivity is all the way down
[00:01] <zchef2k_> ubottu: thanks, but where are things like compiz?
[00:01] <tarelerulz> legend2440 ,  This is what  Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)  . I see what I think is an s-video and something that looks like monitor hook up ,but I don't know about sound
[00:01] <a2828> jrib no on this webpage
[00:01] <jNoxx> i have 3 gb ram
[00:01] <jrib> a2828: "this webpage"?
[00:01] <Drizzel> messing with the mouse settings doesnt help
[00:01] <tovella> INFORMATIONAL NOTICE...
[00:01] <tovella> I've seen quite a few posts about people interested in getting an 8.10 .iso onto a flash device for installing it without burning a new CD.
[00:01] <tovella> I'd found a port of the new "usb-creator", but wasn't sure if it would work on 8.04.
[00:01] <tovella> Those who are interested may wish to take note that I've just done a fresh install of 8.04, and the port seems to work fine on it.  The link is:
[00:01] <FloodBot3> tovella: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:01] <tovella> http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18940109/usb-creator_0.1.10_all.deb
[00:02] <zchef2k_> in what repositories can I find compiz?
[00:02] <jrib> zchef2k_: compiz is installed by default
[00:02] <Flannel> zchef2k_: main (its also installed by default)
[00:02] <andresj_mibbit> hey anybody can help me? networking is not working on my test computer with Intrepid.
[00:02] <zchef2k_> hmmmm
[00:02] <SlimeyPete> zchef2k_: compiz is in the standard repositories
[00:02] <Logikos> erUSUL: i went here: http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml?ff3 ... and the test for java failed ...
[00:02] <a2828> http://www.vagipe.com/profile.php?user=Nobody%205497&lang=english&setage=28&setgender=male
[00:02] <Kemayo> In case anyone was wondering about my earlier mouse-button-rebinding query, I found https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Logitech_Marblemouse_USB which got me where I wanted to be.
, do you have 8.10?
[00:02] <kpthunder> right now my mouse is working, but that's happened before too
[00:02] <pw-> who's willing to help with AR242x? =)
[00:02] <bartho> how can i install a .bin? (need to install the java jdk)
[00:02] <kpthunder> it's most likely going to start being retarded again
[00:02] <Logikos> erUSUL:  should i jsut uninstla it and try it again?
[00:02] <ldiamond> andresj_mibbit, type ifconfig -a and check that your network interface is there
[00:02] <zchef2k_> is the executable in path by default?
[00:03] <zchef2k_> its not in mine
[00:03] <temppy> bartho: why not use the ubuntu package?
[00:03] <kpthunder> on another note: Does anybody know what would cause the shutdown/resart screen to hang?
[00:03] <andresj_mibbit> idiamond: it is not there.
[00:03] <legend2440> !tvout | tarelerulz not sure about Intel i use tv out with ati card
[00:03] <bartho> i cant find it in the installer
[00:03] <kpthunder> It takes about 5 minutes to shutdown
[00:03] <Scunizi> Flannel, ok.. that's doable..
[00:03] <andresj_mibbit> Idiamond: it is not there
[00:03] <a2828> can any one help me fix this thing
[00:03] <kpthunder> On a Core 2 Quad 3ghz
[00:03] <temppy> bartho: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
[00:03] <tarelerulz> tovella  , are there distro that  have usb flash drives as normal media for installing from ?
[00:03] <ldiamond> andresj_mibbit,  "Ldiamond"
[00:03] <Scunizi> Flannel, I thought the change in fstab would just "take care" of that?
[00:03] <krismoffett> can i turn compression off for ssh port forwarding for faster loading of remote application?
[00:03] <a2828> or i have to run firefox as root?
[00:04] <ldiamond> andresj_mibbit, Sorry, I'm not sure what to do then, but I think you'd have to load the net module
[00:04] <ldiamond> How do I get ubuntu to allow me to put my laptop in sleep mode (adding the option in the shutdown menu + making it automatic when I close the lid)
[00:04] <jrib> jNoxx: yes
[00:04] <andresj_mibbit> ldiamond, lol. sorry. on a windows computer with no middle-click paste nor Tab-completion :P
[00:04] <andresj_mibbit> ldiamond: u mean modprobe?
[00:04] <bartho> temppy: thx
[00:04] <jNoxx> Have you problems with compiz?
[00:04] <zchef2k_> or is there no compiz for 64 bit ibex?
[00:04] <tovella> tarelerulz: yes, there are... in fact there was a company that sold a usb flash device with ubuntu pre-installed.  not sure if they're still doing it, though.
[00:04] <temppy> np
[00:04]  * kpthunder needs help
[00:04] <jrib> zchef2k_: there is
[00:05] <zchef2k_> sorry for sounding like a noob
[00:05] <ldiamond> andresj_mibbit, yea
[00:05] <jNoxx> Window-headers missing sometimes
[00:05] <jNoxx> what i can do?
[00:06] <kpthunder> are there gigabyte chipset drivers available for ubuntu?
[00:06] <tarelerulz> tovella, I have been interesting in using usb flash drive as install media for while.   Seem better then using a cd/dvd .  The next step or at lest an option
[00:06] <andresj_mibbit> ldiamond: is it modprobe net? i think its something else, cuz dat doesnt work :)
[00:06] <a2828> guys can any one help fix firefox problem please
[00:06] <temppy> a2828: whats the prob?
[00:07] <jrib> a2828: ask your question with details on a single line and wait patiently please.  I still have no idea what your issue is and I suspect that's true of most (all) people here
[00:07] <ldiamond> andresj_mibbit, I'm sorry, I'm kind of a newbie. maybe google could help you tho. check for loading the net module. And check /etc/modules to see if its in there.
[00:07] <tovella> tarelerulz: the new "usb-creator" comes standard with 8.10.  it really makes it convenient.
[00:07] <andresj_mibbit> ldiamond: ok, thanks :)
[00:07] <a2828> temppy i got ubuntu 8.04 running on amd64 machine when i want to use web site that they have chat useing adobe flash  i can't connect to server i try different sites
[00:08] <kpthunder> can somebody who can help me with a hanging shutdown screen please contact me via pm?
[00:08] <temppy> a2828: are you using 64bit?
[00:08] <a2828> yes
[00:08] <ldiamond> tovella, I havent seen the usb-creator. I really struggled to get ubuntu installed from a USB HDD
[00:08] <tarelerulz> tovella , I thought that was making a boot disk and not turning usb fash drive install into a install media
[00:08] <temppy> a2828: maybe you should switch to 32bit.  Other than that, I can't help ya
[00:08] <a2828> how can i do that :)
[00:08] <ldiamond> tarelerulz, Pm me, I successfully installed Ibex from a USB HDD
[00:08] <a2828> u mean firefox 32 bit
[00:08] <Cygal> temppy: you say he should switch to 32bit just for flash?
[00:09] <pan234> yup
[00:09] <temppy> a2828: no, ubuntu 32bit.  And you would reinstall the whole OS
[00:09] <fallore> i'm backin up my data to do a clean 8.10 install. i've backed up everything in my home folder, but is there anything else i should save?
[00:09] <Cygal> you can have 32bit flash on ubuntu 64bits
[00:09] <tovella> tarelerulz: if you use the "desktop" .iso image, it can do both together in one "request".
[00:09] <favro> !flash64
[00:09] <pan234> just get firefox 32bit
[00:10] <Uplink> how do i continute the debconf?
[00:10] <a2828> but why i can't use on 64 bit?
[00:10] <temppy> fallore: you are all set, unless you run server programs like apache or a db like mysql
[00:10] <pan234> there is no flash 64bit for firefox 64bit that i know of? correct me if i'm wrong
[00:11] <emorris> correct IIRC
[00:11] <fallore> temppy: nope. thanks
[00:11] <Logikos> hi, i tryed installing java via rpm, which didnt work (i now realize why) then i tryed useing applications>add/remove .... it gave an error when it was almost done, but finished the instal anyways, then the update thing told me there was an error that is usualy because of dependancies, i instaled the update for java and it also told me when it was done that there was an error and that it was 'broken' because of dependancies ...
[00:11] <Cygal> there is flash 32 bits working on firefox 64
[00:11] <pan234> yes
[00:11] <pan234> working on firefox 32bit
[00:12] <Logikos> now i'm trying to remove java and it says it cant remove it because of other stuff is dependant on it! ... please advise
[00:12] <luke__> hello ~~~~~~~ all
[00:12] <fallore> Logikos: it would probably be beneficial to you to group your problem into a single message next time
[00:12] <dickovich> hello everyone
[00:12] <temppy> Cygal: there are other problems that you can run into on 64bit.  Don't know what they are, don't care myself, since you can just install 32bit and be done with it.   Thats just my take
[00:12] <ldiamond> How do I get ubuntu to allow me to put my laptop in sleep mode (adding the option in the shutdown menu + making it automatic when I close the lid)
[00:13] <cliechti> how can i map functions to my mouse buttons? i'd like to map the thumb button to middle click
[00:13] <Logikos> fallore: thanks for teh advice .. i was worried it would get cut off, do you have ideas with respect to my problem?
[00:13] <Uplink> how do i continue installing the updates when im on a terminal?
[00:13] <dickovich> is there anyone that can give me a bit of a hand with video driver issues in a new install of ubuntu 8.10
[00:13] <Zelut> I have "Aquire::http::Proxy foo" defined in my /etc/apt/apt.conf file.  Is there a way to use that in an if statement somehow?
[00:13] <tovella> Logikos: if you have Sun's java installed, you might try using OpenJDK, instead.
[00:13] <fallore> I'm going to remove my 8.04 install and do a clean 8.10 install over it. Will there be an easily discernible way to do this with the 8.10 installer or is there another step I have to take?
[00:13] <mankash> I have a problem with filesystem
[00:13] <Zelut> ie; if this proxy is available, use it.  if not go direct.
[00:13] <zchef2k_> good god, is the compiz executable not 'compiz'? I fear I was just stricken with retardation
[00:13] <Cygal> temppy: I just installed a package, it used nspluginwrapper, and never had problems (not more than on 32 bits machines)
[00:13] <mankash> I am not able to access /var/www/html directory
[00:13] <temppy> Logikos: why are you removing  java, when you have programs that need it?
[00:13] <fallore> Logikos: i had a similar problem this morning, although less complicated. I fixed it by removing it in synaptic package manager, perhaps that would work for you? I'm not very experienced though
[00:13] <dickovich> i was running linux mint on my toshiba laptop with no video issues
[00:14] <tovella> Logikos: ...try installing OpenJDK first, then try removing Sun's java.
[00:14] <mankash> I can see files/folder inside html folder through the desktop but not through the commandline
[00:14] <dickovich> now i have installed ubuntu 8.10 and it wont let me install nvidia drivers
[00:14] <luke__> who got the right driver for the Thinkpad middle-key which is colored blue
[00:14] <pan234> video drivers r a pain
[00:14] <dickovich> so that i can use the enhanced desktop effects
[00:14] <tovella> Logikos: some packages don't care which java is installed.
[00:14] <dickovich> yes pan234....
[00:14] <dickovich> im hearing you
[00:15] <dickovich> but i did have it working FINE on linux mint
[00:15] <van> anyone use mkvtoolnix to convert MKV to AVI?
[00:15] <mankash> Please help me with filesystem
[00:15] <Logikos> tovella: k, i'll try, thanks
[00:16] <fallore> mankash: are you sure you're using the right command?
[00:17] <\Kira> Does anyone know of a program that can quickly close and hide all open windows with a button push?
[00:17] <pan234> fluxbox?
[00:17] <fallore> \Kira: the show desktop button in the bottom left might help until someone can give you a better answer
[00:18] <mankash> yeah
[00:18] <mankash> You can tell me the command I can try
[00:18] <pennyg> I updated a minimal kubuntu 8.04 using kde4 to 8.10 and my screen has flashes every 20 seconds or so like a window is trying to open? Anyone else had that?
[00:18] <KumoGone> Who else has no wireless after upgrading?
[00:18] <\Kira> fallore: okay, i forgot about that (I removed it a while ago). thanks
[00:19] <ldiamond> How do I get ubuntu to allow me to put my laptop in sleep mode (adding the option in the shutdown menu + making it automatic when I close the lid)
[00:19] <fallore> \Kira: no problem
[00:19] <willfrand> hey
[00:19] <willfrand> que tal
[00:20] <willfrand> como estan
[00:20] <willfrand> este es el ubuntu-co?
[00:20] <fallore> I'm going to remove my 8.04 install and do a clean 8.10 install over it. Will there be an easily discernible way to do this with the 8.10 installer or is there another step I have to take?

[00:22] <willfrand> can somebody help me?
[00:22] <echosystm> hi guys, is there any way to get windows to snap to half-screen?
[00:22] <arooni-mobile> i dont know *how* this happened but on my laptop i have: unison version 2.27.57, but on desktop i have: unison version 2.13.16.... although both computers are running ubuntu hardy.  on desktop i did sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install unison; but got message: unison is already the newest version. ... ideas?
[00:22] <echosystm> eg. if i want two windows side by side...
[00:22] <waxhead> hi everyone
[00:22] <echosystm> in windows there is a program called gridmove that does this, or you can go "tile windows horizontally"
[00:23] <arooni________a> nick arooni
[00:23] <waxhead> How do I get the network manager icon back in the task bar after the upgrade to ibex?
[00:23] <karsten> HTF do I set menu font size in firefox?  Default is IMO too big.
[00:23] <Guest53842> hi, nice new version. Is there a problem with PAM and LDAP? I get CLEARTEXT-PASSWORDS... Dont know why. Maybe md5 (/etc/pam.d/common-password) is not working? Did work on etch, lenny, feisty and hardy. Any hints?
[00:23] <threeseas> I'm watching 100% cpu usage and my memory and swap slowley being used up. only apps I have running are xchat and system monitor - using ibex upgrade from 8.04
[00:24] <simmerz> I've installed intrepid as a brand new install on my laptop. how do i recover my firefox passwords (not the whole profile) from a backup?
[00:24] <fallore> karsten: edit > options > content > advanced button in the fonts and colors section. i THINK that might be what you're looking for.
[00:24] <waxhead> threeseas: open a command prompt and type in top
[00:24] <olskolirc> hey fellas i need a good mp3 player
[00:24] <waxhead> threeseas: it will show you what is using the CPU
[00:24] <fallore> !mp3 | olskolirc
[00:24] <fallore> er wrong one
[00:24] <ToHellWithGA> in what file are vino preferences saved?
[00:25] <olskolirc> i just want a player smh
[00:25] <fallore> smh?
[00:25] <karsten> fallore: That's the in-page font.  I'm trying to set the *menu* font.  I think it's tied to gtk / gtk-2.0
[00:25] <fallore> ah, sorry i can't be of more help, karsten
[00:25] <qwerty121> olskolirc: use amarok
[00:25] <fallore> !players | olskolirc
[00:25] <waxhead> olskolirc: there are a zillion mp3 players... depends on what you want
[00:25] <Guest53842> anyone having trouble with LDAP?
[00:25] <Logikos> tovella: k, i installed openjdk or whatever ... but in firefox i still cant play this: http://www.miniclip.com/games/robot-rage/en/ .... and on the java test page it fails ... firefox cant seem to find whatever plugin i need... ... i assume its java?
[00:25] <karsten> fallore: NP, thanks.
[00:25] <pan234> anyone know anything about ramdisk? /dev/shm?
[00:25] <olskolirc> thanks :-)
[00:26] <karsten> fallore: I keep finding the oslution to this, then forgetting.
[00:26] <temppy> Logikos: did you install the -plugin?
[00:26] <itai-michaelson> hi, is there anywhere else i can get flash player for linux, the adobe website doesn't work for me
[00:26] <tovella> Logikos: let me see what i've got....
[00:26] <fallore> !flash | itai-michaelson
[00:26] <karsten> itai-michaelson: On what arch?
[00:26] <itai-michaelson> karsten, i386
[00:26] <Logikos> tovella: tyvm for looking into it
[00:26] <karsten> itai-michaelson: There's a free player, gnash, and I think a free plugin, but it doesn't work for all flsash content as Adobe haven't released full specs.
[00:27] <karsten> itai-michaelson: Um.  Should work.
[00:27] <waxhead> I have to say that Ibex is a nice update...
[00:27] <karsten> itai-michaelson: Browser?
[00:27] <fallore> I'm going to remove my 8.04 install and do a clean 8.10 install over it. Will there be an easily discernible way to do this with the 8.10 installer or is there another step I have to take?
[00:27] <waxhead> I've done all 4 machines lastnight and this morning...
[00:27] <tovella> Logikos: gcjwebplugin is a little web browser plugin to execute Java applets. i think it used OpenJDK.
[00:27] <threeseas> there is a memory leak somewhere slowly using up my memory - network manager is constantly using over a 1/3 of both memory and cpu
[00:27] <itai-michaelson> karsten, opera, firefox
[00:27] <waxhead> only downside is network manager not appearing... I can't find anything about it either
[00:27] <jimminy_cricket> is anyone getting serious video flickering after the upgrade??
[00:28] <arooni-mobile> i dont know *how* this happened but on my laptop i have: unison version 2.27.57, but on desktop i have: unison version 2.13.16.... although both computers are running ubuntu hardy.  on desktop i did sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install unison; but got message: unison is already the newest version. ... ideas?
[00:28] <tovella> Logikos: uses openjdk, i mean.
[00:28] <seclm193> Got a question: i'm running ubuntu intrepid and can't get my resolution any higher than 1280X800
[00:28] <Sertse> quick confirmation. If I use the minimal netinsall iso + ubuntu-desktop.
[00:28] <arrrghhh_> so since updating to intrepid, sound in firefox doesn't work.  works fine in opera, but not firefox.
[00:28] <blahblahx> hey guys. on ibex, im trying to install the restricted-extras package, but on the part with the mscorefonts it keeps hanging on the server (a different one each time) with the "http request sent, awaiting response..."
[00:28] <Sertse> I get the normal ubuntu yes?
[00:28] <karsten> itai-michaelson: Hardy or Intrepid?
[00:28] <Logikos> tovella: ok... so what does that mean, i need to figureout how to instal gcjwebplugin ?
[00:28] <temppy> Sertse: pretty much
[00:28] <itai-michaelson> karsten, hardy, just installed , adobe keeps timing out
[00:28] <karsten> itai-michaelson: Hardy, amd64,  ii  flashplugin-no <IP_ADDRESS>ubunt Adobe Flash Player plugin installer
[00:29] <karsten> itai-michaelson: flashplugin-nonfree
[00:29] <pennyg> jimminy - yes im getting a flicker every several seconds like a window trying to open .. is that what your getting
[00:29] <threeseas> gonna try shutting down the network manager
[00:29] <karsten> itai-michaelson: Working w/ firefox
[00:29] <arrrghhh_> i use kde and my gf uses gnome, my firefox is fine.  i'm guessing it's a different between phonon and pulse?
[00:29] <itai-michaelson> karsten, in the repos ,you mean
[00:29] <Hydrant> is there a way to use packages from hardy on intrepid?  other than downloading straight from the site ?
[00:29] <Logikos> tovella: when i search for it in add/remove i get icedtea java plugin
[00:29] <Logikos> sounds good ...
[00:29] <karsten> itai-michaelson: Yeah.
[00:29] <arrrghhh_> Hydrant, why?
[00:29] <karsten> itai-michaelson: Don't d/l from Adobe.
[00:29] <blahblahx> hey guys. on ibex, im trying to install the restricted-extras package, but on the part with the mscorefonts it keeps hanging on the server (a different one each time) with the "http request sent, awaiting response..."
[00:29] <itai-michaelson> karsten, will work with opera?
[00:29] <tovella> Logikos: from a terminal window you could type the command, "sudo apt-get install gcjwebplugin".  alternatively you could use the Synaptic Package Manager to install it.
[00:29] <lu_31415> hi all
[00:29] <Guest53842> soone having problems authenticating to LDAP?
[00:29]  * Atomic_UE is getting really annoyed by the major wifi signal fluctuations which are causing major inet connectivity issues. Probably need to go back to 8.04 :\
[00:29] <Guest53842> noone
[00:30] <karsten> Hydrant: Like what?  In general, no.  I'd say bakcports, but that's going the other way.
[00:30] <lu_31415> can anyone help with ati hd2400pro driver problems in ubuntu8.04?
[00:30] <Hydrant> I'd like to downgrade to the 2.4.24 kernel
[00:30] <blahblahx> actually it seems to be the same server each time.
[00:30] <Logikos> tovella: thanks, where is the 'synaptic package manager' when i try to uninstal sun java it says some junk about useing that?
[00:30] <blahblahx> which is down or something
[00:30] <karsten> Atomic_UE: ... or stop swiping wifi from your neighbor ;-)
[00:30] <karsten> lu_31415: Just ask
[00:30] <Scunizi> Flannel: actually the /home on the laptop is pointed at a different partition.. so by changing just the fstab reference and renaming home to oldhome on the laptop created a problem booting.  Since it's a different partition should I just leave the home reference on the laptop as home instead of oldhome?
[00:30] <blahblahx> and i would like to finish the insallation
[00:30] <arrrghhh_> Hydrant, might as well go back to hardy.  i wouldn't try to run that kernel in intrepid.
[00:30] <threeseas> system monitor closes down when I try to stop the network manager
[00:30] <itai-michaelson> ok thanks
[00:30] <sameer> hi
[00:31] <Hydrant> why's that ?
[00:31] <Logikos> tovella: nevermind, found the synaptic package manager
[00:31] <jimminy_cricket> is anyone getting serious video flickering after the upgrade??
[00:31] <Guest53842> gn8
[00:31] <tovella> Logikos: on the gnome panel (the top bar) click on Sys... OK.
[00:31] <qwerty121> !hi | sameer
[00:31] <Atomic_UE> karsten, it's actually my wifi from the other room, but on an upside in 8.10 i do seem to be able to pick up a few more networks
[00:31] <Logikos> tovella: i instaled icedtea-gcjwebplugin or something like that in just add/remove .... did that do basicly the same thing?
[00:31] <KumoGone> Okay, I've managed to get the ethernet adapter working, meaning it actually lights up.  But I can't get it to network.
[00:31] <KumoGone> Any ideas?
[00:31] <lu_31415> karsten: actually I don't know what to ask specifically - tried installing the drivers some different ways, to no success, and performance is very, very bad :(
[00:31] <tovella> Logikos: which version of ubuntu?
[00:32] <itai-michaelson> karsten, but that package still directs me to macromedia's site....
[00:32] <Logikos> 8.04
[00:32] <Logikos> tovella: 8.04
[00:32] <Logikos> tovella: LTS
[00:32] <tovella> Logikos: then yes, use that one.
[00:32] <temppy> Logikos: icedtea sucks on 8.04 IMHO.  that is, it never worked for me
[00:32] <threeseas> Network manager is eating up my memory - I wonder if this has something to do with problems others are having with wireless connections in ibex
[00:32] <KumoGone> Also, lshw -C network reports that the network is diuabled.
[00:32] <grav> I'm having a problem installing to a local HD from LiveCD.  When I get to the partitioner, and try to go through 'guided, largest free space', it displays that it is going to take up 100% of the disk.  When I hit next, it doesn't 'guide' me.  And I don't want to overwrite the other partitions on that drive
[00:32] <KumoGone> *disabled
[00:32] <Logikos> tovella: k, thanks! i'll give it a try
[00:32] <bouma> how can i get kpdf for ubuntu ??
[00:33] <anm_> moin
[00:33] <tovella> Logikos: on 8.10, it's listed as a "transitional" package, ...going to be replaced by gcjwebplugin, i think.
[00:33] <Uplink> my pc powered off in the middle of dist update, and now my ubuntu wont load :(
[00:33] <blue_mushroom> Hmm, it seems that if I have an application that plays sound, open, I can't start another one, because it says something like Cannot open /dev/dsp or /dev/sound/dsp!
[00:33] <arrrghhh_> grav, do a manual install.  the guided means it chooses the partition setup for you.
[00:33] <Logikos> temppy: ok, so incase it doesnt work for me, what did you end up doing?
[00:33] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, reinstall.
[00:33] <temppy> Uplink: can you get a terminal
[00:33] <grav> argh: I kinda wanted to go through guided... If you have 30GB, how would it suggest partitioning and what mount points?
[00:34] <blue_mushroom> is there a solution if I have a soundcard that apparently plays only on one program?
[00:34] <Uplink> it was on the "memtest86+"
[00:34] <pw-> having problems with AR242x here, any help would be appreciated =)
[00:34] <Ahri> hi, i've installed kubuntu on my mum/sister's laptop to convert them away from windows, but i can't get amarok to play stuff off my sister's ipod nano (1st gen i think), how can i fix this?
[00:34] <temppy> Logikos: start by removing all the java stuff you installed, then install the sun version, or install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:34] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): how am i gonna reinstall? no way
[00:34] <temppy> Uplink: can you get a terminal?
[00:34] <echinos> ok, so we're talking Ibex for help questions now? ;)
[00:34] <Uplink> (temppy): where? on the boot?
[00:34] <itai-michaelson> fallore, thanks for the link but the flash-nonfree package still sends me to adobe's ftp server which keeps timing out on me
[00:34] <Scunizi> funny.. the hardy live cd wants to do package upgrades.. didn't expect that
[00:34] <Logikos> temppy: when i try to uninstal it says i cant cause stuff depends on it
[00:34] <incidence> Uplink, What do you get when boot?
[00:34] <Uplink> (temppy): it boots up to the loggin...
[00:34] <bouma> can i install kpdf for ubuntu ??
[00:34] <Ahri> the amarok error is "Some media could not be loaded (not playable)." -- it's just random stuff off her ipod i want her to be able to manage...
[00:34] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, how did you install in the first place?
[00:35] <temppy> Uplink: anywhere, if you can boot, thats preferable, but you can use the livecd also
[00:35] <bouma> ive tried apt-cache search kpdf
[00:35] <Uplink> the only cd i have is 7.04
[00:35] <temppy> Logikos: the install the sun java first
[00:35] <temppy> Logikos: s/the/then/
[00:35] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, you can get a new one sent to you or download a new copy & burn it.
[00:35] <temppy> Uplink: then can you get a terminal at boot?
[00:36] <Uplink> (temppy): idk if i can...
[00:36] <tyrant> pw-, still having those problems ??
[00:36] <grav> arrrghhh_: I've got 30GB, what would the recommended partition sizes and mount points be?
[00:36] <Uplink> (temppy): im on windows right now cause my ubuntu wont boot, and my livecd is 7.04 so my wi-fi doesnt work
[00:36] <temppy> Uplink: well, its not too hard to recover, just run: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[00:36] <pw-> tyrant, well, i got it working for a bit, even showed all my networks! but wouldn't connect to any, so i rebooted, and now it won't show anything =(
[00:36] <arrrghhh_> grav, i've done ubuntu on paritions as small as 10gb.  but that doesn't leave a lot of wiggle room for downloading much.
[00:37] <Logikos> temppy: thats how all this started, i made the mistake of trying to instal sun java by rpm, then i tryed to instal it by add/remove programs, which gave an error but instaled anyways, then it said it had dependancies ... i dont know what to do with it ... so now i tryed this openjdk or whatever it was ...
[00:37] <itai-michaelson> can anyone help me upload flashplayer somewhere, i can't download it from here
[00:37] <Uplink> (incidence): well i get some stuff like checking stuff and [OK] [fail]
[00:37] <mondtefrio> ubuntu.de
[00:37] <temppy> Logikos: rpm?????  never!!!!!!
[00:37] <grav> well, I can re-size the partition that's right in front of it.  And I could get up to 50GB... But what sizes and mount points would be recommended?
[00:37] <tyrant> pw-, what version of ubuntu do u have ?
[00:37] <Uplink> (temppy): how can i get a terminal if it doesnt load up to the desktop?
[00:37] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, ctrl-alt-f1 or do recovery mode from grub.
[00:38] <tovella> Logikos: my apologies... after trying the website you posted, i see that it does in fact require Sun's java.
[00:38] <tyrant> pw-, and is your system 32 bit or 64 and what version of ubuntu uhave 64 oder 32 bit os
[00:38] <mondtefrio> hi
[00:38] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, but since you powered off your system during the dist-upgrade i'd just say reinstall.  a lot less headache than trying to recover your system.
[00:38] <Logikos> temppy: yes yes, i'm learning :)
[00:38] <pan234> wats the use of having 6 consoles f1 - f6?  anyone can explain?
[00:38] <tovella> Logikos: i'll really be glad when Sun is able to release a 64-bit version.
[00:39] <Logikos> tovella: i dont have a 64bit os right now so no big deal, but still ... its not working...
[00:39] <pw-> tyrant, 8.10, fresh install
[00:39] <tyrant> pw-, try  installing mad-wifi-hal
[00:40] <van> is there a way to convert h264 video mkv file to avi quickly?
[00:40] <Rock1> TAch
[00:40] <arrrghhh_> van, avidemux
[00:40] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): well it was asking me on the grub, then i chose, "load terminal to see whats going on" then it froze and then it gave me a terminal on the package manager window and then i cat a bin file by accident and terminal went nuts
[00:40] <tyrant> pw-, u will have to compile it from source though ,
[00:40] <van> arrrghhh_: it always show me this error h264 detected
[00:40] <van> arrrghhh_: then when i convert avi with copy codec .. it end without image.. only sound
[00:40] <tovella> Logikos: i guess i should have asked before... how did you come to the point of installing via RPM?  why not the .deb that's in the repositories?
[00:40] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, you need to reinstall.  download a cd, burn it, reinstall.
[00:41] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): but i dont want to lose all my config :(
[00:41] <van> arrrghhh_: you're able to do it?
[00:41] <pw-> tyrant, i blacklisted ath_pci and ath_hal, and installed the backports package, this is what made my network show up, but it would not connect, though i put in the right WEP
[00:41] <pw-> tyrant, then i rebooted, and it no longer sees my network
[00:41] <ferronica> how to get text based boot screen
[00:41] <arrrghhh_> van, yes.  probably codecs.
[00:41] <KumoGone> Might get the wired working.......
[00:41] <KumoGone> Come on....
[00:41] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): but i dont want to lose all my config :(
[00:41] <van> arrrghhh_: what video codec you use?
[00:41] <Logikos> tovella: i clicked a link online to get java, java only offered a few options for instal, rpm was one of them, i recignized it, so i read the instructions and tryed to do it, it didnt work though because of a bunch of dependancies ... so i didnt end up installing it by rpm ... i just tryed to
[00:42] <Strife89> What's a port that most routers have open?
[00:42] <tyrant> pw-, have u put the name of the driver in the modules.conf????
[00:42] <van> arrrghhh_: are you using copy codec?
[00:42] <temppy> hello?
[00:42] <Logikos> tovella: i didnt see a .deb option
[00:42] <KumoGone> Strife: 6000
[00:42] <Uplink> (temppy): wb
[00:42] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, whine whine whine.  you probably shouldn't have powered off during a dist-upgrade then.  besides, if you have your /home on a separate partition you won't lose anything really.
[00:42] <Logikos> tovella: now i'm in synaptic package manager looking for sun-java-6 to uninstall it, then i'll try again?
[00:42] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): ummm really? so how do i reinstall?
[00:42] <arrrghhh_> van, ubuntu-restricted-extras probably.  i dunno if i have anything additional.  i was just mentioning software that would do that conversion for you.
[00:43] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, uh... download iso... burn cd... pop in drive... install.  you installed it in the first place, right?
[00:43] <pw-> tyrant, no
[00:43] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): yea i install 7.04 in my pc
[00:43] <Uplink> (temppy): wb
[00:43] <tovella> Logikos: i see.  in situations like those, it's usually best to see if there's a version of the plugin available in the repositories.  add/remove won't show you nearly as many of the packages as Synaptic Package Manager does.
[00:43] <runpain2> i installed Ubuntu on a usb hard drive can i transfer it to the hrd drive with out losing my settings i have all the hardware working now and the wireless which was a bear to do and dont want to lose it all i have windowsxppro on the laptop on main hdd
[00:43] <temppy> Uplink: did you get any of my messages?  pidgin was acting way weird
[00:43] <tyrant> pw-, add "ath_pci" to the end of the file /etc/modules , u ll have to open the file with with sudo
[00:44] <ferronica> how to get text based boot screen
[00:44] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, so download the iso for 8.10 burn it and install it!  simple.
[00:44] <Uplink> (temppy): the last i got was "can u get a terminal?"
[00:44] <Fr0zen_> is there anyway that has a fix for the broadcom cards
[00:44] <Fr0zen_> the new drivers in 8.10 dont worl
[00:44] <Irishmanluke> omg omg omg I'm upgrading to Intrepid now
[00:44] <Irishmanluke> ...
[00:44] <Fr0zen_> work
[00:44] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): but i dont want to lose my config and my programs installed :(
[00:44] <ldiamond> How do I get ubuntu to allow me to put my laptop in sleep mode (adding the option in the shutdown menu + making it automatic when I close the lid)
[00:44] <Logikos> tovella: yes, i'm learning :)
[00:44] <temppy> Uplink: yeah, can you get a terminal?
[00:44] <runpain2> iwant to daul boot ubuntu and xp on that hdrive
[00:44] <tyrant> pw-, sudo gedit /etc/modules
[00:44] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, well then you shouldn't have powered off in the middle of a dist-upgrade.  quit whining about it.
[00:44] <pw-> tyrant, aye, got it, rebooting =)
[00:44] <Uplink> (temppy): where? in desktop? or in boot?
[00:44] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): i couldnt continue... my update froze
[00:45] <temppy> Uplink: anywhere in ubuntu
[00:45] <Logikos> tovella: ok i used synaptic package manager to completly remove sun-java-6 ... now what method do you recomend i use to add it back again? synaptic package manager also?
[00:45] <Uplink> (temppy): idk how to get a terminal other than desktop
[00:45] <rivalarrival> Anyone else having issues installing ibex? Worked OK on two machines, but on my primary, it seemd to install OK, but just before it gets to the login screen, everything seems to lock up.
[00:45] <temppy> !tty | Uplink
[00:45] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, were you being impatient or did it really freeze...
[00:46] <runpain2> i installed Ubuntu on a usb hard drive can i transfer it to the hrd drive with out losing my settings i have all the hardware working now and the wireless which was a bear to do and dont want to lose it all i have windowsxppro on the laptop on main hdd i also want to daul boot ubuntu and xp on that hdrive
[00:46] <tovella> runpain2: if you install it to another hard drive the default settings will be put in place, however, when booted from the usb-hard drive, you should make a backup of the settings.
[00:46] <Atomic_UE> ldiamond, System > Preferences > Power Management
[00:46] <runpain2> how
[00:46] <quentusrex> How do I find any where the text 'mycustomtext' is located in a directory of files?
[00:46] <temppy> arrrghhh_: try to be nice
[00:46] <Strife89> I'm looking for someone to help me test VNC Viewer.
[00:46] <runpain2> tovella, how
[00:46] <tovella> Logikos: yes.
[00:46] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): it did really freeze, debconfig froze on me and terminal got some WEIRD characters cause i cat a bin file by accident
[00:46] <Uplink> (arrrghhh_): the terminal on the window of dist-update
[00:47] <runpain2> i know ii need to partion the hard drive to fit both
[00:47] <ldiamond> Atomic_UE, I dont have a Power Management menu in system preferences
[00:47] <arrrghhh_> Uplink, i don't see why you were "cattin" anything while the dist-upgrade was going on.  suck it up and reinstall.
[00:47] <tovella> runpain2: i would backup everything in at least /etc and /home.
[00:47] <Atomic_UE> ldiamond, o_O ubuntu with gnome?
[00:47] <hvgotcodes> how do i do an upgrade to Intrepid from the command line?
[00:47] <temppy> !upgrade > hvgotcodes
[00:48] <runpain2> where can i back them up too
[00:48] <Uplink> arrrghhh_: cause it asked me about the grub, and then i chose "run terminal so see whats going on"
[00:48] <tovella> runpain2: is there a lot of stuff in your /home directory?
[00:48] <ldiamond> Atomic_UE, yes, but I made a minimal install and I setup gnome and x manually
[00:48] <drone_> on 64 bit ubuntu intrepid, I'm having a rather annoying problem installing multimedia codecs as per instructions on ubuntuforums... could anyone maybe point me in the right direction?
[00:48] <quentusrex> How do I find any where the text 'mycustomtext' is located in a directory of files?
[00:48] <Strife89> I'm looking for someone to help me test VNC Viewer. All you have to do is punch a command in the terminal.
[00:48] <ldiamond> Atomic_UE,  I'm trying to install gnome-power-manager package
[00:48] <temppy> Strife89: Ill do it
[00:49] <tovella> runpain2: ... sorry i should have asked how much stuff... in KB, or MB.
[00:49] <Uplink> (temppy): so what after i get a terminal?
[00:49] <drone_> I added the sources and the gpg key and now when I try to do the first step of installing the codecs, it says "E: couldn't find package libflash-mozplugin"
[00:49] <arrrghhh> Uplink, it's just when an dist-upgrade fails, it's difficult to recover.  there's a lot of stuff you can try, but it's usually A LOT easier to reinstall.
[00:49] <Atomic_UE> ldiamond, yeah that's what you want and it should be threre then
[00:49] <Atomic_UE> ldiamond, otherwise the commands is gnome-power-preferences
[00:49] <temppy> Uplink: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade            and if it says it cant continue because you need to run another command, run that command
[00:49] <Uplink> (arrrghhh): how do i "reinstall" mister...
[00:49] <Logikos> tovella: i marked sun-java6-bin, sun-java6-plugin, sun-java6-jre marked itself, i also see sun-java6-jdk ... should i mark jdk also? or any others? such as doc, fonts, javadb,
[00:49] <Uplink> (temppy): ok thanx will try
[00:50] <runpain2> what if i copied the usb partion of ubuntu to a partion on the hardrive that i would make and make a boot loader to that hard drive on it
[00:50] <arrrghhh> Uplink:  we've been over this....
[00:50] <thiebaude> drone_:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[00:50] <drone_> thank you :)
[00:50] <tovella> Logikos: not for what you're doing, just check sun-java6-jre... any others it requires will be marked automatically.
[00:50] <runpain2> i could edit boot loader for the hdrive and partions right
[00:50] <thiebaude> yw,drone_
[00:50] <Logikos> tovella: thanks
[00:51] <snowveil> my wireless keyboard is currently recognized as dev/input/js0 ....how can I make my joypad (dev/input/by-id/usb-Honey_Bee_AIRFLO-joystick) js0 instead?
[00:51] <tovella> Logikos: actually, jre or plugin, should work just fine.
[00:51] <runpain2> tovella,
[00:51] <tsrk> Hi, i'm on ubuntu 8.10 and when I try to install guest additions it can't download them with "Connection timed out."  I can download them w/ firefox, but why can't virtualbox download them?
[00:51] <tovella> runpain2: yes?
[00:51] <Logikos> tovella: i checked them both... jre and plugin ?
[00:51] <runpain2> what if i copied the usb partion of ubuntu to a partion on the hardrive that i would make and make a boot loader to that hard drive on it
[00:51] <runpain2> i could edit boot loader for the hdrive and partions right
[00:51] <tovella> Logikos: you should be fine with that.
[00:52] <stage3> runpain, do you want to install it from HD?
[00:52] <tovella> runpain2: i suppose that could work (as long as you set it up properly).
[00:53] <jvrmrtn> HEllo every one
[00:53] <masque7> its strange because after installing mysql-server and phpmyadmin i thought that if i went over to http://localhost i would see 2 folders: apache2, and php. unfortunately(?) i just see a "it works!" but i need to get into phpmyadmin. anyone know how?
[00:53] <jvrmrtn> Its necessary install motherboard's drivers like in Windows ??
[00:53] <arrrghhh> jvrmrtn, noppers
[00:53] <arooni-mobile> i have two 320GB hard drives, A and B.  A has /home and /.  B is completely empty.  i want to do some kind of backup solution.  im thinking between s3 and backing up to hard drive B.  what are thoughts about (1) s3 versus backing up to anohter hard drive?  (2) which program to use to make it happen?
[00:54] <stage3> runpain2, do you want to install ubuntu 8.10  from HD?
[00:54] <lu_31415> hum, how do you update from ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10? it hasn't appeared yet in update manager
[00:54] <tovella> masque7: try  http://localhost/phpmyadmin
[00:54] <masque7> tovella: was the first thing i tried :P
[00:54] <runpain2> does ubuntu 8.10 have wireless working already
[00:54] <runpain2> stage3,
[00:54] <blue_mushroom> How the F... can a user loose the ability to type under X in ubuntu
[00:55] <ADjames> anybody know why i get an error 550 whenever i try to upload a folder to the ftp?
[00:55] <blue_mushroom> (lose)
[00:55] <ADjames> vsftp
[00:55] <tovella> masque7: that's weird... that's usually what works on the systems i've installed it on.
[00:55] <ldiamond> I'm looking for a very lightweight music player that supports mp3 and flac (At least)
[00:55] <runpain2> it was a bear to load wireless on this laptop i have atheros 5006
[00:56] <masque7> tovella: i was actually following a tutorial as well :/
[00:56] <masque7> tovella: one minute my ssh tunnel works (ulta vnc, putty/x11vnc) and then it doesn't haha
[00:56] <masque7> tovella: seriously, you lose sleep over this kinda thing
[00:56] <blue_mushroom> I have a problem: I lost the ability to type under X/Gnome/Ubuntu, if I'm in the login screen I can type username password, but as soon as I start the session I cannot type anywhere... Anybody know how I can reset this thing and maybe give more ability to the user?
[00:56] <blue_mushroom> I logged out and it's the same
[00:56] <tovella> masque7: i would completely remove, then re-install phpmyadmin.
[00:57] <runpain2> i notice in administration it has an istall feature would that work for what  i want to do
[00:57] <masque7> tovella: i tried that as well..

[00:57] <drone_> so from what I understand there is no way to run flash on 64 bit firefox
[00:57] <drone_> correct?
[00:57] <masque7> tovella: i'm actually getting an error when i log in... "cannot find hostname <my hostname>"
[00:57] <blue_mushroom> cliechti: it's good you at least can type
[00:58] <blue_mushroom> under X
[00:58] <masque7> yet i have an internet connection working
[00:58] <blue_mushroom> I'm now on tty
[00:58] <mankash> i am unable to acccess html folder
[00:58] <VvWolverinevV> hey is there a way to access secure webdav servers in 8.10??
[00:58] <cliechti> blue_mushroom: a guy was here with a similar problem and he came back telling a reboot helped
[00:58] <masque7> blue_mushroom: maybe you could remove gnome, then reinstall it?
[00:59] <blue_mushroom> Well I have rebooted, but I fear I may be unable to type here again...
[00:59] <masque7> blue_mushroom: also make sure your xorg.conf hasn't been changed. do you have a backup?
[00:59] <tovella> masque7: ahh, perhaps your /etc/hosts file doesn't have an entry that corresponds the the name in /etc/hostname ?
[00:59] <blue_mushroom> masque7: that's the grim idea I got :(
[00:59] <blue_mushroom> masque7: or maybe just --reconfigure it.
[00:59] <blue_mushroom> masque7: I doubt I do.
[00:59] <mankash> please help me with file system

[00:59] <FloodBot3> mankash: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:59] <masque7> tovella: it actually suggests i add my hostname in there.. i guess it's something i need to spend more time on.
[01:00] <cliechti> mankash:  what do you type to "access" it?
[01:00] <temppy> blue_mushroom: do you have evdev installed?
[01:00] <mankash> ls /var/www/html
[01:00] <blue_mushroom> temppy: I don't know, let me check
[01:00] <masque7> blue_mushroom: don't know if you thought about, say, instead of totally losing a GUI maybe installing XFCE, then remove gnome,then switch back?
[01:00] <Kumo> Okay, I can get ethernet interface active, but I can't seem to connect to the network.
[01:00] <Kumo> Okay, I can get ethernet interface active, but I can't seem to connect to the network.
[01:00] <Kumo> It hangs on obtaining the IP address
[01:00] <FloodBot3> Kumo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:00] <temppy> blue_mushroom: which flavor of ubuntu are you using?
[01:00] <blue_mushroom> temppy: I don't seem to have it.
[01:00] <Logikos> tovella: on this page: http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml .. the java test seems to work, however this page still says it requires a plugin: http://www.miniclip.com/games/robot-rage/en/ - i do have flash installed ...
[01:00] <blue_mushroom> temppy: 8.04 normal
[01:01] <favro> Kumo: what is in /etc/resolv.conf?
[01:01] <tovella> masque7: does /etc/hosts show your correct hostname for the address <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:01] <LF|Irssi> is there a way to bypass having to type in my password everytime i want to access synaptic package manager? Its past annoying now.
[01:01] <snowveil> hmm...purpley
[01:01] <sfire> anyone have a broadcom wireless card and having problems getting it to work?  I have time to help 1 person with it
[01:01] <VvWolverinevV> hey is there a way to access secure webdav servers in 8.10??
[01:01] <snowveil> my wireless keyboard is currently recognized as dev/input/js0 ....how can I make my joypad (dev/input/by-id/usb-Honey_Bee_AIRFLO-joystick) js0 instead?
[01:01] <temppy> blue_mushroom: well, try this exact command: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^               and dont forget the ^
[01:01] <blue_mushroom> OK...
[01:02] <Kumo> favro: three global dns ip addresses
[01:02] <temppy> snowveil: cant you just use a symlink?
[01:02] <blue_mushroom> temppy: what exactly does the ^ do?
[01:02] <blue_mushroom> Reconfigure it?
[01:02] <snowveil> temppy, how would I do that?
[01:02] <cliechti> mankash: and you get an error?
[01:02] <mankash> yep
[01:02] <favro> Kumo: sounds like you might need to comment out the ones that don't match your routers ip then
[01:02] <blue_mushroom> snowveil: ln -s
[01:02] <tovella> Logikos: i don't know what more i can do with that problem.
[01:02] <ldiamond> Good job in Ubuntu 8.10 for making the mousewheel enabled by default!!!!
[01:02] <blue_mushroom> snowveil: but check the parameters
[01:02] <temppy> blue_mushroom: just try the command, and you will see, its safe and cancelable
[01:03] <tovella> Logikos: i'm just about out of ideas.
[01:03] <masque7> tovella: i'm afraid i haven't got time to boot into that box at the moment (was setting it up to be a file/web server).. but i will check that out. i mean, i think i might have messed around with it when i couldn't get samba shares working properly - so maybe a clean reinstall is my best bet. might learn something in the process.. :) i guess i was just looking for an alternative way to phpmyadmin
[01:03] <harushimo> hey is all the applications for gutsy gibbon closed
[01:03] <harushimo> I can't get any of them
[01:03] <mankash> ls: cannot access /var/www/html: No such file or directory
[01:03] <teratorn> what is the replacement for the ~/.Xmodmap file when using X.Org with evdev?
[01:03] <K_Dallas> Hi again! Since my installing 8.10, a few times while working, my cap-lock key start blinking and the system just is blocked, nothing working and have to use the reboot button. Is it 8.10 (8.04 used to work pretty flawlessly) or it is a improbable coincidence that my toshiba laptop is broken partly (I havent have this under windows, at least before I installed 8.10 as since then I havent used windows much). Thanks
[01:04] <mankash> i can see contents through windows
[01:04] <blue_mushroom> temppy: it installed the linux headers or something
[01:04] <snowveil> if I do that, what will happen to my current js0 device?
[01:04] <temppy> blue_mushroom: thats it? o well
[01:04] <Logikos> tovella: well at least the problem is different, the past problem was a failed instalation of java, java is now installed correctly near as i can tell ... that java test page works, but this game, and some others dont work?
[01:04] <tovella> masque7: oh, in that case, not having any data or configuration stuff you need on it, by all means - do the fresh install.
[01:04] <blue_mushroom> temppy: so it should have gotten everything to the newest state and configured?
[01:04] <LF|Irssi> is there a way to bypass having to type in my password everytime i want to access synaptic package manager? Its past annoying now.
[01:05] <K_Dallas> LF|Irssi, you can keep it open and not to log out
[01:05] <temppy> blue_mushroom: no, it checks the default dependencies.  It doesn't do any upgrading particularly, and no configuring
[01:05] <tovella> Logikos: it could be that the site checks for a (dare i say it) microsoft browser.
[01:05] <masque7> tovella: yeah it's no skin off my nose. total experiment for me is this. isn't it frustrating when you're following a how-to word-for-word and, say, a command doesn't work? :P
[01:05] <blue_mushroom> temppy: ... well that didn't work, should I restart and see if it works?
[01:05] <tovella> Logikos: ... & plugins.
[01:06] <LF|Irssi> K_Dallas: my tray is already full of stuff, keeping that open 24/7 is not really desired
[01:06] <temppy> blue_mushroom: since you are on 8.04, you could try reconfiguring x, but I dunno
[01:06] <Logikos> tovella: its miniclip ... some of the other miniclip games work fine, even before i installed java, because they only required flash
[01:06] <K_Dallas> LF|Irssi, but frankly, you shouldnt be needing it that often ;)
[01:06] <ldiamond> How do I test my sound in Ubuntu (is there any sound files anywhere I could test with)?
[01:06] <blue_mushroom> temppy: I'm just in awe that a user can ACTUALLY lose it...
[01:06] <K_Dallas> ldiamond, do: locate *.wav
[01:06] <tovella> masque7: is this based on the how-to i recently saw on howtoforge?
[01:06] <ldiamond> K_Dallas, how do I play it?
[01:06] <cliechti> mankash: sound strange.. do you have a space in the folder name? like " html" ot "html "?
[01:06] <Kumo> favro: I've got global dns disabled.
[01:07] <blue_mushroom> temppy: The same thing happens if I disable the touchpad... when I want to enable it I can't .
[01:07] <Segaja> http://pastebin.com/d6511963e << can somebody help me with that error?
[01:07] <K_Dallas> ldiamond, it depends what you have installed, I have mplayer so i do: mplayer *.wav
[01:07] <ldiamond> K_Dallas, locate doesnt work
[01:07] <blue_mushroom> temppy: unless I restart X
[01:07] <favro> Kumo: that file shold say   nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>   or whatever the routers ip address is
[01:07] <ldiamond> K_Dallas, isnt there a sound manager with stuffs I could test with?
[01:07] <K_Dallas> ldiamond, maybe it is not installed or you need to do updatedb first
[01:07] <zrak> does anyone knows unix regexp
[01:08] <temppy> blue_mushroom: yeah, it sucks.  I go for the separate /home, and just reinstall if anything craps out, or I screw anything up.  Clean install, I'm up in running, and I haven't lost any settings
[01:08] <K_Dallas> ldiamond, alsamixer is one but is it that hard to find a sound file
[01:08] <DaveCave> yellow fello ubuntus
[01:08] <tovella> Logikos: but now it looks like some of them require a specific vendor's java (Sun).  i don't have any experience with miniclip.
[01:08] <psiforce> anyone else having problems with navigation buttons in firefox (running intrepid 64)
[01:08] <zrak> how come this doesn't work echo '+3892322541zzz9' | grep -qE '00|\+[0-9]{2}|[0-9]{3}[1-9][0-9]{6}' && echo YES || echo NO
[01:08] <zrak> i get YES, but i should get NO
[01:08] <K_Dallas> ldiamond, when you log into ubuntu (if you use gdm, gnome) you should hear something
[01:08] <cliechti> lol, such a simple regex ,-)
[01:08] <ldiamond> K_Dallas, I have mp3's on a windows partition, but I try to play them with Audacious and nothing happens (it doesnt even start playing)
[01:09] <Tyrath> where's the garbage bin located?
[01:09] <Logikos> tovella: well isnt that what i installed? sun-java6-bin ...
[01:09] <DaveCave> anyone sucessfully installed nvidia drivers on intrepid? and have openGL/GLX?
[01:09] <ldiamond> K_Dallas, so its either the sound thats not installed (so audacious just doesnt play it), or audacious has trouble getting files from that partition
[01:09] <temppy> DaveCave: only 177s work
[01:09] <K_Dallas> ldiamond, in which case, I think you need to install the codec files
[01:09] <Tyrath> DaveCave: not me, I posted a topic on launchpad. hopefully it gets SOLVED
[01:09] <ldiamond> K_Dallas, I have a minimal installation, so I setup only the basic gnome
[01:09] <K_Dallas> ldiamond, copy them to your linux partition
[01:09] <Flynsarmy> Is there a way to make kde apps use the win2k theme like gnome without installing kde-desktop and adding 50 trillion items to the menu?
[01:09] <ldiamond> K_Dallas, whats the package
[01:09] <temppy> Tyrath: are you using 177s?
[01:10] <DaveCave> tyrath: ive reinstalled 5 times today, cause i kept getting stuck at TTY1 after restart once drivers installed, same problem with you?
[01:10] <QS> does anyone have experience with vmware unity under intrepid? it's doing strange things for me
[01:10] <cliechti> zrak: maybe oyu need to define groups ()  you have several or'ed | expressions and the second will match
[01:10] <DaveCave> temppy: yes 177s
[01:10] <Tyrath> temppy: I'm using Intrepid Ibex
[01:10] <K_Dallas> ldiamond, not sure but i think you have to add the multimedia repository
[01:10] <tovella> Logikos: yes, the one compiled for Ubuntu, but some websites may be able to check to see which Sun java you have installed (as well as which web browser).
[01:10] <K_Dallas> Q: Since my installing 8.10, a few times while working, my cap-lock key start blinking and the system just is blocked, nothing working and have to use the reboot button. Is it 8.10 (8.04 used to work pretty flawlessly) or it is a improbable coincidence that my toshiba laptop is broken partly (I havent have this under windows, at least before I installed 8.10 as since then I havent used windows much). Thanks
[01:10] <Kumo> favro: still no luck
[01:10] <lenios> hi, i'm having file system is mounted read only after installing intrepid on eeepc and rebooting, does anybody know about it?
[01:10] <jrib> zrak: why do you believe you should get NO?
[01:11] <_pisecx_> Hi, All. Am I write that started from 8.10 neither GParted nor Ubuntu setup can resize NTFS partitions?
[01:11] <Mappa> list
[01:11] <Tyrath> temppy: the reason I want to know is cause the GUI is insisting I delete something I don't want to. So in order to fulfil its desires I'm going to copy the file to another directory, and then delete it in that directory
[01:11] <favro> Kumo: you need to restart the network - sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[01:11] <aprilhare> .leave
[01:11] <zrak> jrib: because in the pattern there isn't charcter
[01:11] <cliechti> K_Dallas: uh. caps lock blinking... kernel panic.. we had that on a box that overheated
[01:11] <arooni-mobile> i have two 320GB hard drives, A and B.  A has /home and /.  B is completely empty.  i want to do some kind of backup solution.  im thinking between s3 and backing up to hard drive B.  what are thoughts about (1) s3 versus backing up to anohter hard drive?  (2) which program to use to make it happen?
[01:11] <Logikos> tovella: that seems doubtful, so when you go to the website it says your missing a plugin also? - there are some plugins i dont have .. adobe shockwave and igloader ... which i cant find linux versions of?
[01:11] <Tyrath> DaveCave: I don't think restarting it will do anything. I think you'll need to manually set it up
[01:11] <K_Dallas> cliechti, oh!
[01:12] <jrib> zrak: that pattern matches +38 with \+[0-9]{2}
[01:12] <Segaja> is there a bug in inteprid with AR ?
[01:12] <_pisecx_> Hi, All. Am I write that starting from 8.10 neither GParted nor Ubuntu setup can resize NTFS partitions?
[01:12] <DaveCave> tyrath: this is after following like 3 different install guides cause the way i did it in 8.04 doesnt like 8.10 lol
[01:12] <zrak> but i wrote | which means or
[01:12] <K_Dallas> cliechti, so it is the laptop overheating nothing about ubuntu.
[01:12] <DaveCave> tyrath: when i had 8.04 i had the nvidia drivers working
 you are great, there is space in the last. Iwas trying to find the solution from yesterday
[01:12] <jrib> zrak: yes... so it only needs to match one thing
[01:12] <Kumo> favro: got a bunch of no such device messages
[01:12] <MaT-dg> how do I install the java runtime environment on intrepid 64bit?
[01:12] <mankash> cliechti> thanks a lot
[01:12] <zrak> jrib: but i get YES, i should get NO
[01:12] <Segaja> http://pastebin.com/d6511963e << i get this error while compiling fluxbox on 8.10. the fluxbox people say it is an inteprid issue
[01:13] <tovella> Logikos: i just don't have any real knowledge of how that particular website is setup.
[01:13] <jrib> zrak: no, because it matches.  Do you agree the pattern matches?
[01:13] <K_Dallas> cliechti, could it be that ubuntu is not handling the fan correctly?
[01:13] <Segaja> intrepid*
[01:13] <flo__> Good Evening. I asked Ubuntu to remember a password forever for an ftp connection. Now the password has changed. How do I tell it to forget the old password??
[01:13] <Flynsarmy> flo__, maybe check the keyring manager
[01:13] <cliechti> K_Dallas: dont know if that is your problem. but it was in our setup. 2 pc were placed close together and the hot air could not get out
[01:13] <favro> Kumo: is eth0 listed in /etc/network/interfaces?
[01:13] <Logikos> tovella:  its not just that website, if you google specific games, such as robot rage, it wont work on the other websites either ... but if the game wont load for you either... then i guess there just isnt a way...  thanks so much for trying
[01:14] <Tyrath> DaveCave: go to your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file, pastebin the contents, and submit a bug report of exactly what happened on reboot to launchpad
[01:14] <cliechti> K_Dallas: you may run the sensors applet and look at the temperatures
[01:14] <K_Dallas> cliechti, no, it could also be my problem, the laptop underneath is getting very hot and that only when i use ubuntu 8.10
[01:14] <gleesond> anyone else haing the issue with python-setuptools crashing the upgrade?
[01:14] <Tyrath> ok does anyone know where trash is located? it shouldn't be a hard question
[01:14] <gleesond> s/haing/having
[01:14] <Kumo> favro: no
[01:14] <cliechti> K_Dallas: it could also be something completely different. like broken drivers etc
[01:14] <tovella> Logikos: i wish i could help more, but i just don't play online games.
[01:14] <DaveCave> tyrath: i couldnt, it wouldnt allow me to open anything kept saying GLX-warning no screen or some crap, so i couldnt even check my logs or anything
[01:15] <gleesond> Tyrath: ~/.trash
[01:15] <Tyrath> DaveCave: set the driver to default
[01:15] <Tyrath> gleesond: thanks
[01:15] <DaveCave> tyrath: command for setting default?
[01:15] <favro> Kumo: that'll make it hard to connect
[01:15] <flo__> Flynsarmy: I'm in the keyrings application. But, I don't see anything for that specific connection.
[01:15] <jrib> !trash | Tyrath, DaveCave
[01:15] <Tyrath> DaveCave: can't you access the GUI at all?
[01:15] <_pisecx_> All, starting from ubuntu 8.10 I can not resize ntfs partition in setup and even in gparted. Is it ok or it's some bug with my hard disk?
[01:15] <teratorn> how to remap keyboard scan codes without the .xmodmap?
[01:16] <gleesond> jrib: oh snap
[01:16] <gleesond> heh
[01:16] <Tyrath> jrib: that's was my question. DaveCave is having trouble with nvidia and ibex, not finding trash
[01:16] <flo__> Does anyone have any other suggestions of where to look?
[01:16] <memeemeee> are there any known issues with Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller? I can't get it to connect to my linksys WGR54 anymore. I'm running Kubuntu 8.04 KDE3 and thinking about upgrading to 8.10 to see if it makes a dif. any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been working at this for days-- no weeks now to no avail
[01:16] <Tyrath> jrib: besides that's useless - i'm using ibex
[01:16] <jrib> Tyrath: *g* maybe it's the same and you could at least check?
[01:16] <favro> Kumo: someone with a default interfaces file might be able to give you the needed line for eth0 in that file
[01:17] <DaveCave> lol i think i can find the trash thanks
[01:17] <Tyrath> gleesond: apparently ~/.trash doesn't exist
[01:17] <DaveCave> >.<
[01:17] <jrib> DaveCave: ignore what the bot sent you, sorry about that :)
[01:17] <scandal> anyone else set up ecryptfs-utils in Ibex?  I'm getting errors when I try to `cp -r` directories into ~/Private ("out of memory")

[01:17] <DaveCave> tyrath: i queryed u

[01:17] <tacone> anyone knows how to restore a dmraid raid0 after having lost 1 disk metadata ?
[01:17] <AntiLaVista> 1
[01:18] <gleesond> Tyrath: someone just said it's acctually in ~/.local somewhere
[01:18] <arooni-mobile> ive got a new hard drive;  how do i mount it on ubuntu hardy? and mount it so it stays mounted between reboots?  its formatted to ext3
[01:18] <blue_mushroom> well it actually was slow keys... how the heck is that activated?
[01:18] <Segaja> can anybody tell me if it is an ubuntu bug?
[01:18] <Tyrath> gleesond: yep jrib. he's right
[01:18] <Kumo> favro: my mistake, eth 0 was there.  eth 1 isn't
[01:18] <squirkey> does anyone know where I can find the wallpaper from the gnome 8.10.  I would like to make xubuntu look like gnome
[01:18] <scandal> tacone: do you mean raid1?  raid0 has no metadata
[01:19] <SupremeNerd> Is it official Ubuntu policy to discourage users from compiling their own custom kernels ?
[01:19] <tacone> scandal: raid0.
[01:19] <ldiamond> What package do I need to read mp3s? (and flac)
[01:19] <scandal> tacone: there is no way to recover from a raid0 failure
[01:19] <tacone> scandal: i mean metadata you get from dmraid -rD
[01:19] <MnemonicPunk> Alright, I can now boot into 8.10 from the liveCD but for some reason I get I/O errors when installing. The CD check from the boot menu doesn't report any errors though, MD5 sums are correct as well. What could be wrong?
[01:19] <Flynsarmy> The kcontrol app doesn't appear in the intrepid apt repository but does in hardy. howcome?
[01:20] <scandal> tacone: oh , i dont not know the answer to that
[01:20] <favro> Kumo: which device didn't exist in your errors restarting the network?
[01:20] <chickengirl> how are the servers holding up with the new release? should I wait to upgrade or can I go ahead and try it now?
[01:20] <tacone> scandal: ok, well, thx anyway :)
[01:20] <PassionFRUI7E> Are there any SMTP protocols for terminal in 8.10?
[01:21] <psiforce> hmm must have corrupted my profile somehow :(. "rm ~/.mozilla" fixed the problem
[01:21] <ivantis> !bots
[01:21] <scandal> chickengirl: pulling down the updates was a bit slow today.
[01:21] <SupremeNerd> can someone please answer my question ?
[01:21] <jrib> SupremeNerd: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to answer you
[01:21] <KenBW22> can anyone here see me having a problem installing ubuntu to the external SD card on my eeepc?

[01:22] <jrib> ivantis: why did you call !ops?
[01:22] <ivantis> whats the new bot policy?
[01:22] <SupremeNerd> favro: ok
[01:22] <favro> Kumo: and   lspci | grep net   returns the two cards
[01:22] <elkbuntu> ivantis, there is no 'new' policy. it's still the same. no unofficial bots.
[01:22] <favro> ?
[01:23] <SupremeNerd> favro: that's good news because it lessens my negative view I had of ubuntu
[01:23] <jrib> SupremeNerd: I'd say that you are not encouraged to recompile your kernel unless you *need* to

[01:23] <alexander> hi, is there anybody who can help me to install a subversion repository on ubuntu ?
[01:23] <PassionFRUI7E> Q:  Is there any way to send mail from terminal built into ubuntu 8.10?
[01:23] <ivantis> how do i make a bot official?
[01:23] <Terabyte> hey is it possiblet to run ubuntu in a virtual machine, and how stable is it?
[01:23] <DragonRift> anyone?
[01:23] <Terabyte> on windows*
[01:23] <ivantis> and i meant new as in the bot being new, not the policy
[01:23] <staticvector> it is possible, and assuming you have enough ram it is very stable
[01:23] <Kumo> favro: no output
[01:23] <gleesond> alexander: ubuntuguide.com?
[01:23] <Pici> ivantis: Please join #ubuntu-ops
[01:24] <alexander> is used this, but it doesnt worked:http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Subversion
[01:24] <ldiamond> What is the package to read MP3
[01:24] <Terabyte> staticvector do you recommend any partiuclar software?
[01:25] <alexander> i get this: svn import /tmp/projekt1/ http://localhost/svn/projekt1 -m "initial import"
[01:25] <alexander> svn: PROPFIND Anfrage fehlgeschlagen auf »/svn/projekt1«
[01:25] <alexander> svn: Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
[01:25] <staticvector> Terabyte, virtualbox is my favorite windows vm
[01:25] <staticvector> http://www.virtualbox.org/
[01:25] <Terabyte> thankyou staticvector very helpful
[01:26] <favro> Kumo: try just   lspci   and browse for the ethernet cards
[01:27] <cliechti> alexander so you have an apache with mod_svn running at localhost?
[01:28] <Kumo> favro: the only network controller it's showing is the wireless.
[01:28] <Kumo> and I've been trying to get that to work for two days without any results.
[01:29] <favro> Kumo: hard to help without knowing the cards - do you know what they are?
[01:29] <waxhead> has anyone else had the networkmanager icon go missing iwth the ibex update?
[01:29] <waxhead> I've been googling and haven't foound anything...
[01:29] <cliechti> waxhead: yes
[01:29] <waxhead> cliechti: did you get it back?
[01:29] <waxhead> I checked the sessions manager and I can see it in the list to start...
[01:30] <chickengirl> anyone know how well the servers are holding up and if it would be too painful trying to upgrade now, or if I can go ahead and try it?
[01:30] <MnemonicPunk> Guys? How do I check the integrity of /dev/sda including all partitions on it? o.o
[01:30] <Kumo> I believe that they are an Atheros chipset.  I tried to find out the exact model onece and failed.  Laptop is a Dell Latitude D600
[01:30] <waxhead> chickengirl: use a local(ish_ mirror
[01:30] <cliechti> waxhead: i dont have it back yet
[01:30] <ari_stress> hi hi :)
[01:30] <waxhead> cliechti: bummer... it's annoying me a bit... :)
[01:30] <Genius314> I have a separate partition for /home in 8.04. If I do a clean install of 8.10, I should be able to make this my home folder without formatting it, right?
[01:31] <favro> Kumo: I thought dell would list the hardware on their site...
[01:31] <Kumo> Broadcom 57xx chipset
[01:31] <waxhead> I like knowing the wireless strength and things like that...
[01:31] <Kumo> You'd think so.
[01:31] <ldiamond> Is there a way to talk over Gtalk Skype or MSN (using the microphone)
[01:31] <waxhead> cliechti:  it's happened on both laptops now...
[01:31] <ari_stress> Genius314: yes it is, i always do that
[01:31] <Kumo> They don't list the exact chipset.  At least I couldn't find it.
[01:31] <waxhead> currently doing a work station, so yet to see what happens with that..
[01:31] <bpat1434> anyone else having problems with 8.10 and nvidia restricted drivers?
[01:31] <waxhead> bpat1434: nope...
[01:31] <Ging> nope
[01:31] <ari_stress> bpat1434: what about it? it's not working? :(
[01:32] <Genius314> ari_stress: Great. Thanks.
[01:32] <Ging> but i dont have an nvidia card
[01:32] <favro> Kumo: have a google - use the model and ubuntu as search terms
[01:32] <bpat1434> In 8.04 I had to use the nvidia restricted drivers, but now in 8.10 (clean install) it doesn't list it in the Hardware Drivers
[01:32] <ari_stress> Genius314: it's best to backup your data first though
[01:32] <bpat1434> I've isntalled every nvidia-1xx* package i could find...
[01:32] <K_Dallas> Q (continued): I installed lm-sensor (I have also noticed that the laptop fan is not working at all, will log into windows to see if it is just ubuntu or not). Now, I would like to actually monitor the temp and the fan speed. How do I check them? Thanks
[01:32] <elvirolo> hi everyone
[01:32] <stage3> bpat1434, nvidia is not able to install yet. look at the
[01:33] <todd> My laptop has intel GM965 video driver.  Ubuntu recognizes it and uses vesa driver instead of xorg-intel driver.  How can I get this card to work with compiz?
[01:33] <Genius314> ari_stress: Well, of course.
[01:34] <cliechti> waxhead: nm-applet is actually running, but it doesnt show an icon
[01:34] <Kumo> Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5702 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 02)
[01:34] <Genius314> Now... my Wacom tablet (Graphire 3) doesn't work on the live CD in 8.10. Will it work after installing 8.10 (maybe the drivers aren't on the CD or something)?
[01:34] <elvirolo> i have an ATI 9800 pro video card, with proprietary drivers installed - compiz works fine but 3d games (tremulous) don't work that great (low FPS/strange shapes on the screen, etc.) why is that?
[01:34] <waxhead> cliechti: yep same here!!!
[01:34] <waxhead> cliechti: go figure huh...
[01:35] <K_Dallas> (well, the fan has started to work but still I appreciate if someone let me know which application shows the actual speed fan or cpu temp) Thanks
[01:35] <waxhead> cliechti: I haven't found anything in google yet... only some old posts on the forums...
[01:35]  * Tyrath wonders how hard it would be to learn C, given he knows Java and PHP
[01:35]  * pw- got his atheros working

[01:36] <waxhead> actually even the battery icon is missing too!

[01:37] <Tyrath> when you reinstall on ubuntu does it overwrite the old files?
[01:37] <blue_mushroom> My wireless worked by default
[01:38] <blue_mushroom> Tyrath: I think it formats the / drive

[01:38] <blue_mushroom> Kumo: sean9461 can you like modify the background light using the keyboards?
[01:38] <Genius314> My wireless card works, but for some reason, the setting I need isn't listed. I need to select WEP 64/128-bit hex, but it's not an option.
[01:38] <Tyrath> blue_mushroom: ah k
[01:39] <zrak> can anyone help me about this
[01:39] <Kumo> blue: the backlight levels?  Yeah
[01:39] <blue_mushroom> zrak: with what? shoot the question
[01:39] <Tyrath> blue_mushroom: i'm just wondering. I reinstalled vim with different configure settings. I'm wondering if when I launch vim it will be the old or the new
[01:39] <zrak> just a second
[01:39] <sean9461> blue mushroom what about the light?
[01:39] <Tyrath> blue_mushroom: given both versions are the same :P
[01:39] <zrak> echo '1' | grep -qE '1' && echo YES || echo NO
[01:39] <blue_mushroom> Tyrath: I doubt they will be.
[01:39] <Tyrath> blue_mushroom: so I can't do a vim --version lol
[01:39] <zrak> i get NO for this
[01:40] <sean9461> can anyone help me get connected to the net on ubunto please....
[01:40]  * Tyrath wonders if he should report a bug but really is running short of time to do his assignment
[01:40] <Tyrath> does anyone feel like reporting a bug for me?
[01:40] <Tyrath> :P
[01:40] <zrak> blue_mushroom: any suggestions?
[01:40] <Tyrath> you'll be benefiting the ubuntu community if you do
[01:40] <Gigacore> hi guys, when I try to use my downloaded gtk2 themes in my 8.10, it says GTK+ aurora is not installed.. so now how to install it
[01:40] <jj_galvez> has anyone been able to install ia32-libs on 8.10 amd64?  I've not been able to and now lots of stuff is broken like flash and wine
[01:41] <blue_mushroom> zrak: Hmm... not quite because I haven't meddled with grep settings ... someone in here could help though, probably.
[01:41] <fallore> i'm currently installing ubuntu 8.10. i'm setting up the partitions and i'm not sure if i should use ext3 filesystem or ext2. I would like to be able to access these files from my windows boot, which should i pick?
[01:41] <arooni> i just formatted a brand new 320gb drive.  gparted says size is: 298GB, used is 2.54GB, and unsused is 295.55GB.  i recently mounted the partition to /media/seagate320 ... and according to nautilus Properties... i see:  280.6 GB free .. why am i losing 15GB of space?
[01:41] <sean9461> is there actually any ubuntu staff on here to support us?
[01:41] <Tommo-dmc> I've got an ethernet cable from my ubuntu desktop to the router. Router is giving it DHCP (i.e IP) and I can ping that ip from a separate computer, but the ubuntu machine can't ping the router, any other computers, and the router doesn't recognise it as being connected. I've done every possible option within the network manager.. what the hell is going on?
[01:41] <zrak> arooni: because 2^n
[01:41] <blue_mushroom> fallore: you will not be able to with any partition
[01:41] <waxhead> FFS... vim settings are broken again...
[01:42] <blue_mushroom> fallore:  you'd need a special program
[01:42] <arooni> zrak, i dont follow
[01:42] <csilk> for some reason my openoffice installation lost it's ubuntu based theme, i know have some horrible win95 grey OOo. anyone know how to revert this?
[01:42] <jrib> waxhead: how so?
[01:42] <csilk> *now
[01:42] <fallore> blue_mushroom: you can enable ext2 support in windows, but i'm not sure if you can do this with ext3.
[01:42] <waxhead> man.. what's with getting vim to just work..
[01:42] <zrak> well it all start with
[01:42] <zrak> bits
[01:42] <zrak> on byte equals
[01:42] <Kumo> favro:  apparently, the BCM57xx cards have native linux drivers.
[01:42] <waxhead> jrib: syntax highlighting is broken again..
[01:42] <zrak> for bits
[01:42] <blue_mushroom> fallore:  that's a new thing ... I didn't know about that.
[01:42] <jrib> waxhead: no it's not.  works fine
[01:42] <waxhead> jrib: took me ages mucking about last time to get it to work...
[01:42] <zrak> arooni: one KB equal 2^10 B
[01:42] <MnemonicPunk> Can someone at least help me recover my boot record? =(
[01:42] <waxhead> jrib: sure...
[01:42] <blue_mushroom> zrak: 1 byte = 8 bits
[01:43] <fallore> blue_mushroom: i don't know if it's new, but yeah, you can download the drivers or whatever from online.
[01:43] <jrib> waxhead: you installed vim?  By default, ubuntu comes only with vim-tiny
[01:43] <zrak> blue_mushroom: yes, i made a misake
[01:43] <zrak> mistake
[01:43] <fallore> Is there currently a way for windows to read ext3 filesystems, or should I stick to ext2 when making my new partition for 8.10?
[01:43] <blue_mushroom> Oh... sorry. :D
[01:43] <zrak> arooni: 1MB = 2^10 KB
[01:43] <Wicked> hmm anyone know if using the official virtualbox package for 8.04 from there site would work on 8.10?
[01:43] <zrak> so 2^10 = 1024
[01:43] <favro> Kumo: I know nothing about bcm cards sorry
[01:43] <Gigacore> arooni: maybe you should use 64bit version of ubuntu ???
[01:44] <boozkachu> Hi, im having a bit of a mare getting my box to start up after doing the upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10. There is lots of moaning from klogd and x server about not being able to write files, and read only file system. Any ideas what's up? I can get into rescue/safe mode and get into gnome, so not sure what the problem is.
[01:44] <arooni> Gigacore, why would that make a difference?  i would just have more addressable memory
[01:44] <jrib> fallore: ext3 is just ext2 with journaling.  The ext2 drivers for windows can read your ext3 partitions
[01:44] <jrib> !ext3 > fallore
[01:44] <cliechti> blue_mushroom: and your keyboard? working again?
[01:44] <fallore> thanks a ton jrib :D
[01:44] <Gigacore> arooni: coz 64 bit version OSes will support large memory and storage spaces
[01:44] <Genius314> Is it possible that my tablet and wireless won't work on the Live CD of 8.10, but will work after installing?
[01:44] <ldiamond> Can anyone help me setup sound on Ubuntu 8.10?
[01:45] <Tyrath> ok, no one wants to report my bug so I'll do it sometime later :P
[01:45] <arooni> Gigacore, are you saying my 320GB hard drive is not supported in 32 bit ubuntu?
[01:45] <blue_mushroom> cliechti: yes... it was something like slow keys
[01:45] <Tyrath> maybe after exams
[01:45] <zrak> jrib: can you help me with this echo '1' | grep -qE '^[0-9]$' && echo YES || echo NO
[01:45] <blue_mushroom> I don't know HOW I enabled them
[01:45] <zrak> no
[01:45] <Gigacore> arooni: not really, but just guessing it
[01:45] <BHSPitLappy> Genius314, wouldn't count on it.
[01:45] <csilk> anyone know how to set openoffice.org  theme to default?
[01:45] <cliechti> blue_mushroom: so it was some setting? where? in gnome?
[01:45] <Wicked> !virtualbox
[01:45] <jrib> zrak: what about it?  that matches
[01:45] <amt2> WHat is the best way to install Eclipse in ubuntu? Using the package manager or via the web site/
[01:45] <zrak> arooni: 4 gb of memory canno't be addresed by 32 bit processor
[01:45] <Genius314> arooni: It will most likely work. I have 500GB in 32-bit Ubuntu.
[01:45] <zrak> yes
[01:45] <blue_mushroom> cliechti: but if I disable the touchpad it is still disabled
[01:45] <csilk> amt2, depends what version you want
[01:45] <zrak> but it says NO
[01:45] <CMD_L1N3> hello
[01:45] <blue_mushroom> cliechti: in gnome
[01:45] <zrak> try it
[01:46] <Gigacore> haha
[01:46] <Tommo-dmc> I've got an ethernet cable from my ubuntu desktop to the router. Router is giving it DHCP (i.e IP) and I can ping that ip from a separate computer, but the ubuntu machine can't ping the router, any other computers, and the router doesn't recognise it as being connected. I've done every possible option within the network manager.. what the hell is going on?
[01:46] <MnemonicPunk> !error 5
[01:46] <MnemonicPunk> =(
[01:46] <Gigacore> now solve my prob
[01:46] <jrib> zrak: not here.  It says YES
[01:46] <Gigacore> now solve my prob
[01:46] <zrak> really?
[01:46] <BHSPitLappy> amt2, if the version in the package manager is new enough for your taste then do that, if it's not, then the site.
[01:46] <CMD_L1N3> i just updated to ubuntu 8.10 and i have no nm-applet icon..?
[01:46] <zrak> jrib: sorry
[01:46] <zrak> try this one
[01:46] <Gigacore> when I try to use my downloaded gtk2 themes in my 8.10, it says GTK+ aurora is not installed.. so now how to install it ?
[01:46] <kitty_> ok guys, i'm having problems with booting a windows installation, it is on /dev/sda1 i have ran ms-sys, supergrub and tried the "ntldr missing files" fixes and i'm still not getting anywere. anysuggestions besides "use the windows install cd"?
[01:46] <boozkachu> Hi, getting errors about read only file system and klogd and x server cant start, just upgraded to 8.10 any help would be appreciated. Cheers.
[01:46] <zrak> echo blah | grep, '1' | grep -E '[0-9]' && echo YES || echo NO
[01:46] <BHSPitLappy> amt2, I needed a newer version than the package manager has for Android development
[01:47] <jrib> waxhead: did that fix your issue?  (You still need to do  :syntax on)
[01:47] <boozkachu> oh and the network card driver segfaulted, which is odd cos it didnt under 8.04
[01:47] <jj_galvez> someone asked about virutalbox and 8.10 - I've got it running
[01:47] <amt2> How out of date is the package manager version?
[01:47] <Genius314> I just don't understand why my Graphire 3 would work in 8.04, but not in 8.10, unless they removed the driver from the default install or something...
[01:47] <CMD_L1N3> can some help me with nm-applet icon
[01:47] <jrib> zrak: what about it?
[01:47] <zrak> jrib: do you know why it doesn't work
[01:47] <zrak> well it says NO
[01:47] <amt2> I need to do a web application involving Oracle, Struts, Jetty/Apache. Do you have any idea if the package manager version is good enough?
[01:48] <kitty_> can someone help me with the problem i stated?
[01:48] <Lando-SpacePimp> Why did the inventor of Ubuntu got to go into space and I didn't?
[01:48] <Flannel> amt2: Should be.
[01:48] <jrib> zrak: it does work.   echo blah | grep 1   is going to return nothing.  Then you are grepping nothing.  And grep doesn't find [0-9] in nothing
[01:48] <Flannel> Lando-SpacePimp: Please take non-support questions to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks
[01:48] <boozkachu> Guys, lots of things saying that they cant create lock files or the ownership is wrong on startup of 8.10 after upgrading, help please :)
[01:48] <rdvon> I'm trying to make a liveusb to install ubuntu but I can't mount the iso on to cdrom0, it says it's not a block device.
[01:49] <kevin083> i installed the package "speakup-source" on 8.10... how do i compile this module into the kernel?
[01:49] <MnemonicPunk> rdvon: Add -o loop as option
[01:49] <kitty_> rdvon, mount -o loop /pathto/file /cdrom0
[01:49] <rdvon> Thanks
[01:49] <boozkachu> rdvon: I had that problem earlier
[01:49] <Tommo-dmc_> I've got an ethernet cable from my ubuntu desktop to the router. Router is giving it DHCP (i.e IP) and I can ping that ip from a separate computer, but the ubuntu machine can't ping the router, any other computers, and the router doesn't recognise it as being connected. I've done every possible option within the network manager.. what the hell is going on?
[01:50] <zrak> jrib: but why do i get YES for this string also       echo '+3892322541zzz9' | grep -E '^00|\+[0-9]{2}|[0-9]{3}[1-9][0-9]{6}$' && echo YES || echo NO
[01:50] <kitty_> Tommo-dmc_ goto a terminal and type in "ifconfig ethwhatever" and see if you have an ip address
[01:50] <Tommo-dmc_> kitty_:  Yeah it's assigned the IP address
[01:51] <kitty_> ok, so how many other interfaces do you have on this box?
[01:51] <jrib> zrak:  run it like this to see why:        echo '+3892322541zzz9' | grep --color -E '^00|\+[0-9]{2}|[0-9]{3}[1-9][0-9]{6}$'
[01:51] <MnemonicPunk> Is there any way to install Ubuntu from the net from within a live CD? I don't know where the I/O error occurs exactly and I want to rule out the CD.
[01:51] <kitty_> have you tried taking the other ones down with ifconfig and seeing if it works with just the one interface up?
[01:51] <blackvd> I just built a new desktop computer and need a wifi device for it. I was wondering if anyone in here new which would be  better to buy a PCI wifi adapter or a USB wifi dongle? thanks.
[01:51] <Tommo-dmc_> kitty_: only have eth0 (IP) and lo
[01:51]  * MnemonicPunk is really out of ideas... =(
[01:52] <rdvon> Thanks kitty, boozkachu and MnemonicPunk. :)
[01:52] <Genius314> Does anyone know if the newer Wacom tablets work by default in 8.10 or not? Maybe it's just the fact that I have an older one?
[01:52] <owen1> do i need to install update-manager-core to upgrade to 8.10?
[01:52] <kitty_> ok, are you running dhcp-server  ?
[01:52] <cliechti> MnemonicPunk: isn't there a cd-check option when you boot from the cd? ms5 sums or something like that
[01:52] <boozkachu> Anyone else having "read only file-system" errors at boot up?
[01:52] <MnemonicPunk> cliechti: There is, it doesn't report any errors though.
[01:52] <Tommo-dmc_> kitty_: on ubuntu? i dont think so. the router has a dhcp server
[01:52] <rdvon> boozkachu: how did you partition?
[01:52] <dfgas> what is a good program to rip audio cds to mp3 that is easy to use?
[01:52] <kitty_> ok, can you pastebin me some info ?
[01:52] <rdvon> dfgas: there are a bunch.
[01:52] <owen1> is 8.10 stable? any issues u had while upgrading?
[01:53] <prower> owen1: just a few, yes :>
[01:53] <zrak> jrib: when i do it like this i don't get nothing
[01:53] <kitty_> cat /etc/resolv.conf | ifconfig eth0 | route -n
[01:53] <Tommo-dmc_> kitty_: sure, but itll take some time since im typing from oher computer
[01:53] <zrak> echo '+389232zzzzzz25419' | grep --color -E '^00|\+[0-9]{3}[1-9][0-9]{6}$'
[01:53] <owen1> prower: like what?
[01:53] <boozkachu> rdvon: I didn't nothing has changed in that respect, just did the update. I have a disk for linux
[01:53] <kitty_> hmmmm
[01:53] <rdvon> dfgas: try soundjuicer
[01:53] <prower> owen1: for starters expect your cd/dvd drive to close as soon as you open it
[01:53] <ArShAm|awaY> hi all
[01:53] <lucax> can i downgrade gnome 2.24 to 2.22 in intrepid?
[01:53] <rdvon> boozkachu: you did the ubuntu update then? I had problems last time I tried that.
[01:53] <MnemonicPunk> One odd thing I noticed: My install hangs for a long time (few minutes) after it says "loading partitioning program" and actually displaying the partitioning menu.
[01:53] <owen1> prower: wow. will it be resoved if i wait a few days/weeks?
[01:53] <jrib> zrak: well I get something here
[01:53] <dfgas> rdvon, thanks
[01:53] <boozkachu> rdvon: Yep
[01:54] <rdvon> dfgas: remember to go to options and change the file type to the format you want.
[01:54] <kitty_> ok then don't do that tommo, lets just try "dhclient eth0" and tell me what the output looks like
[01:54] <zrak> jrib: and for this one echo '+38923225419' | grep --color -E '^00|\+[0-9]{3}[1-9][0-9]{6}$' && echo YES || echo NO
[01:54] <prower> owen1: there's a workaround on launchpad for it now :> gentoo has included it in their upstream so hopefully
[01:54] <jrib> zrak: anyway, like I said before "+38" matches from +[0-9]{2}
[01:54] <boozkachu> rdvon: Im having problems with things like klogd not being able to make lock files etc
[01:54] <TubbyCat12> what's the best alternative to Windows Movie Maker?
[01:54] <zrak> i modified that
[01:54] <boozkachu> rdvon: But i can get into gnome fine in rescue mode
[01:54] <lucax> how can i downgrade gnome 2.24 to 2.22?
[01:54] <zrak> jrib: i modified it
[01:54] <jrib> lucax: you can't
[01:54] <Red_Wraith> Hi all.
[01:54] <boozkachu> rdvon: Something has gone awry
[01:55] <rdvon> boozkachu: I can't help you there sorry, it sounds like you've surpassed my expertise.
[01:55] <prower> owen1: beware if you have a network card that's e1000e based as well...although the final version of intrepid was supposed to include a fix my card was bricked by it :<
[01:55] <leftfinger1> hi, anybody can help me? I downloaded a ubuntu theme <BurntOrangeIce> and tried to install it via the theme manager. It said successful but nothing new is showed on the preview list. I clicked <customize> button and found <Burnt Orange Ice> item appeared on the list of <controls> tab. But when I selected it, a warn text appeared saying <This theme will not look as intended because the required GTK+ theme engine '' is not installed.>. I don't know how to d
[01:55] <ArShAm> I need to do this : to start some application with a prefix , like nice
[01:55] <boozkachu> rdvon: No worries, thanks anyway
[01:55] <rdvon> boozkachu: I'd usually just reinstall the os at that point, but I'm lazy ;)
[01:55] <Tommo-dmc> kitty_: dhclient eth0 did a dhcpdiscover and remapped my ip to a different address which immediately started working, connecting to network etc
[01:55] <Rave1_> MnemonicPunk, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[01:55] <kitty_> so ?
[01:55] <ArShAm> lets say change the find behavior , to run with a nice level of 5 by default
[01:56] <zrak> jrib: did you try this one echo '+38923225419' | grep --color -E '^00|\+[0-9]{3}[1-9][0-9]{6}$' && echo YES || echo NO
[01:56] <Eviltechie> Hi. Does anyone know of any good network attached storage that will work with Ubuntu, XP, and Vista?
[01:56] <Tommo-dmc> kitty_: So it's working now, I'm not sure what initial problem was. Looks like the original dhcp assignment was local and incorrect
[01:56] <zrak> jrib: it says NO
[01:56] <boozkachu> rdvon: I think i may go down that route, bit pissed off but I should have just made a new partition and gone for a clean install. Oh well.
[01:56] <harushimo> I'm having problem with Intrepid
[01:56] <jrib> zrak: that's fine, it doesn't match
[01:56] <kitty_> ok, well you're welcome
[01:56] <harushimo> I can't install it
[01:56] <kitty_> can anyone help me with some boot problems i am having ?
[01:56] <zrak> but why?
[01:56] <prower> owen1: on the bright side of things, though, if hardy works for you now then there's no need to upgrade at all until at least 2011 :>
[01:56] <rdvon> kitty: I'll try
[01:56] <Tommo-dmc> kitty_: thanks ;)
[01:56] <kitty_> yay :D
[01:56] <boozkachu> kitty_: I am also having boot problems
[01:56] <ArShAm> as soon as there are bunch of applications that I want to do the nice before running, I cannot think of making symbolic links
[01:56] <harushimo> I boot into the cd but it never loads
[01:56] <Red_Wraith> I just upgraded, and I have a problem: My old nvidia driver, 173, stoppped working because of kernel interface. The new driver, 177, works insanely slow because I'm running an old Geforce 6600. Also, when I try to install 173 instead, it fails. All packages install, but no glx. When I try to compile Nvidia's 173.80.xx it fails. Help please!
[01:56] <MnemonicPunk> Rave1_: So no way of doing that from within a running system?
[01:57] <MnemonicPunk> (liveCD system in my case)
[01:57] <boozkachu> kitty_: Have you just updated to intrepid?
[01:57] <rdvon> harushimo: burn the disk again, if that doesn't work download the iso again.
[01:57] <jrib> zrak: I'm not going to decipher regexps all day, take a look at http://www.regular-expressions.info/ .  If you're still not sure why it isn't matching after going through that site, feel free to ask me again
[01:57] <CMD_L1N3> my gnome deskbar does not have the nm-applet icon
[01:57] <kitty_> ok, i upgradded from dapper to fiesty
[01:57] <CMD_L1N3> help?
[01:57] <kitty_> like months ago
[01:57] <harushimo> I just downloaded the iso
[01:57] <owen1> prower: ok. i'll wait.
[01:57] <Rave1_> MnemonicPunk,  not that I know of
[01:57] <rdvon> harushimo: go into the options menu, there should be an option to check if the disc has any erros.
[01:57] <boozkachu> insipid
[01:57] <rdvon> *errors
[01:57] <kitty_> my problem is that now i can't boot my primary ntldr drive
[01:57] <prower> i don't know if anyone else noticed this either, but when i enable weather information in the clock applet it doesn't actually show the weather? :<
[01:57] <Red_Wraith> Holy shit, the ubuntu forums are down?
[01:58] <rdvon> Red_wraith: I was just on them.
[01:58] <harushimo> I had this same problem Hardy. I couldn't install it
[01:58] <jrib> zrak: here's a hint: if you change the '6' to a '7' in the regexp, it will match
[01:58] <Red_Wraith> I get 404
[01:58] <harushimo> I have no idea to work this problem
[01:58] <boozkachu> Intrepid = insipid = not really that fair to the canonical team but i wanna play with my linux
[01:58] <Red_Wraith> excuse me, 503.
[01:58] <factotum> ive had nvidia issues too, for the last year or so, just doesn't work as well as it did on my win install. Moving file manager windows around is jittery, opening new windows renders kind of funny etc
[01:58] <flo__> Every time I enable the nVidia drivers in Ubuntu 8.04, the screen turns black and the monitor has no signal after booting. (nVidia 7600 GT) Any suggestions?
[01:58] <rdvon> harushimo: you're talking about booting into the livecd right? what program are you using to burn the disc, if any?
[01:58] <factotum> and thats without compiz or anything
[01:58] <csilk> OOo has chanegd to some weird theme, i cant set human or any other theme for that matter, anyone had similar problems?
[01:58] <zrak> jrib: yes i saw that
[01:58] <kitarian> I'm trying to troubleshoot my wireless internet connection, I have a netgear card and the first step in troubleshooting is to go to system-preferences-hardware information and the hardware information is not listed under preferences. I'm new to ubuntu and I don't know where it should be.
[01:58] <Red_Wraith> My framerate in a game dropped from 60 to 14 with the new driver.
[01:59] <harushimo> I use K3b
[01:59] <prower> boozkachu: i'd recommend installing it in virtualbox before installing it over your existing hardy installation :> too many bugs
[01:59] <rdvon> factotum: try envy, google it.
[01:59] <zrak> jrib: btw thanks a lot for the --color options it's a lifesaver
[01:59] <Red_Wraith> The ubuntu forums ARE down...
[01:59] <boozkachu> prower: Too late dude :)
[01:59] <harushimo> yeah booting into the live cd
[01:59] <rdvon> harushimo: what program are you using?
[01:59] <kitty_> kitarian: what is the problem you are having, describe it in your own words
[01:59] <harushimo> I can't boot into live cd but I can boot into the main menu
[01:59] <factotum> rdvon: i tried envy once upon a time
[01:59] <n8tuser> kitarian-> lspci   is it listed?
[01:59] <harushimo> program for burning the cd?
[01:59] <Red_Wraith> I tried envy. It thought it installed the 173 driver, but glx was still disables.
[01:59] <harushimo> K3b
[01:59] <gleesond> is there a way to rerun the upgrade script?
[02:00] <kitarian> Kitty_: I'm trying to get my wireless internet to work using a netgear card
[02:00] <csilk> cant change OOo theme, anyone had similar issues?
[02:00] <Red_Wraith> I tried nvidia-xconfig, which also apparently worked, but still no glx.
[02:00] <csilk> I want to change it to w/e is default
[02:00] <kitty_> kitarian, you using ubuntu ?
[02:00] <rdvon> harushimo: try burning it again, maybe just use the normal gnome iso burning tool.
[02:00] <prower> boozkachu, well yeah, i've installed it as well :> didn't expect so many issues after the last few releases being so well done
[02:00] <rdvon> kitarian: try ubuntu wiki
[02:00] <kitarian> kitty_: yeah
[02:00] <factotum> then again, I'm still using 8.04
[02:00] <prower> i'm glad i backed up everything, i doubt the network chipset on my motherboard is going to work properly again though :<
[02:00] <hvgotcodes> in upgrading to intrepid im getting a warning about replacing a customized conf for dhclient -- i never customized that file.  should i just replace?
[02:00] <Red_Wraith> Dammit! When will the foums be up again?
[02:00] <harushimo> I did that with Hardy. it didn't work but I'll try it again
[02:00] <kitarian> rdvon:i am using the ubuntu wiki
[02:00] <kitty_> kitarian, open a terminal, try "iwlist eth0 scan" or whichever interface is your wireless card
[02:00] <MnemonicPunk> I'm kinda disappointed with intrepid yet. The mouse/keyboard thing was annoying to say the least. :D
[02:00] <leftfinger1> anybody know how to deal with <This theme will not look as intended because the required GTK+ theme engine '' is not installed.> issue?
[02:01] <rdvon> kitarian: is this a laptop card or a pc card, I had a pc card once and got it workign.
[02:01] <kitarian> pc card
[02:01] <jrib> zrak: yep, I have my grep aliased to grep --color=auto.   You might also take a look at glark
[02:01] <rdvon> kitarian: do you have your driver cd?
[02:01] <harushimo> be back in a few. I need to restart the system
[02:01] <kitty_> is this an ndiswrapper card?
[02:01] <MnemonicPunk> leftfinger1: You probably have to install another GTK engine. Open synaptic and seach for gtk-theme-engine
[02:01] <csilk> I would like to revert openoffice.org to the default theme although I can't seem to do it, any ideas?
[02:01] <MnemonicPunk> leftfinger1: Maybe the one you need already exists as a package (probably it does)
[02:02] <factotum> i thought about using a BSD for the longest time, but it kernel panics at the cd boot up
[02:02] <rdvon> kitarian: I'll pm you with instructions
[02:02] <leftfinger1> MnemonicPunk: leftfinger1: You probably have to install another GTK engine. Open synaptic and seach for gtk-theme-engine
[02:02] <leftfinger1> thanks! I'll try it
[02:02] <kitarian> kitty_: it says interface doesn't support scanning
[02:02] <MrKeuner> hi all, does 8.10 still needs medibuntu repository
[02:02] <boozkachu> Is there a "revert" option so I can ditch intrepid's goodness?
[02:03] <kitty_> kitarian try "iwconfig" and see which one it says supports wireless extensions
[02:03] <Sertse> anyone have any experiences replacing network manager w/ wicd?
[02:03] <boozkachu> sorry that's a stupid question. bugger.
[02:03] <factotum> i would like to thank you all for going ahead with installing 8.10, it's making my life a lot easier har har...that was a joke
[02:04] <favro> funny...
[02:04] <hvgotcodes> also with a core2 duo machine should i be running a 64 bit version of ubuntu?
[02:04] <MnemonicPunk> I can see why Ubuntu tries to appeal to Windows users... but there's some parts of Windows it really should not mimic. >_>
[02:04] <harushimo> i'm back
[02:04] <factotum> hvgotcodes: if its a 64-bit processor
[02:04] <harushimo> i was installing the new kernel
[02:04] <harushimo> I download the 64 bit version
[02:05] <Red_Wraith> Yes, I finally found 173.14.12 on the nvidia website, installing now. Cya all.
[02:05] <MnemonicPunk> Before updating any graphics drivers, make sure you have irssi installed. :D
[02:05] <kitarian> kitty_: it says no wireless extentions
[02:05] <kitty_> kitarian, on all interfaces?
[02:05] <cyhdudu> 晕死～咋都是英文哪～有能讲中文的没？
[02:06] <harushimo> I can't get Intrepid to work
[02:06] <fanqo> cyhdudu, 有啊
[02:06] <flo__> When I reboot after enabling the nVidia drivers, the screen is black. Any suggestions?
[02:06] <MnemonicPunk> Woa, Pidgin speaks UTF-8. xD
[02:06] <mallochigh> why do my ata-ide disk come up sata ?
[02:06] <damn> hey guys im looking for a voip peer to peer tool with encryption is there any?
[02:06] <mallochigh> i think it may be killing my sata controller.
[02:06] <tovella> does the amd64 version do something like irqbalance on it's own or should irqbalance be installed on all multicore PCs?
[02:07] <kitty_> mallochigh, you mean they're listed as sd? instead of hd?
[02:07] <mallochigh> yes
[02:07] <hvgotcodes> factotum: how do i tell what version of the core2 duo i have?
[02:07] <MnemonicPunk> flo__: Log in at another tty, look into /var/log/Xorg~SUMTHIN~.log and see if it says anything about errors.
[02:07] <mallochigh> I also have sata_sx4 driver that is bombing.
[02:07] <mallochigh> Maybe a conflict?
[02:07] <factotum> hvgotcodes: try uname -a
[02:07] <kitty_> mallochigh just upgraded kernel huh, get used to it "P
[02:07] <cyhdudu> 啊呀～还真有讲中文的啊～太好啦～这个咱们怎么聊啊？这里全都是英语的！
[02:07] <harushimo> could it cd not work because of the mirror I d/l from doesn't have all the neccessary files for iso
[02:07] <harushimo> I mean the not it
[02:07] <cliechti> !cn
[02:07] <hvgotcodes> factotum: it just gives me kernel info
[02:07] <factotum> or lspci or something
[02:07] <hvgotcodes> i want to know the processor versioon
[02:07] <kitty_> when i upgraded from dapper to fiesty i noticed it did that too, and i had to redo my configs and stuff
[02:08] <mallochigh> I introduced a sata pci card and notice the difference between ubunuto and knoppix in its ability to handle the code.
[02:08] <mallochigh> Both same kern version
[02:08] <mallochigh> Both configSx4=y in the config-kernel file.
[02:08] <tovella> hvgotcodes: from a terminal window you could type "cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[02:08] <danc3> hvgotcodes: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[02:08] <flo__> MnemonicPunk: ok, I'll have a look at that. Thank you
[02:08] <hvgotcodes> tovella: thanx
[02:08] <factotum> yup, that'll do it
[02:08] <fallore> i tried to install and i got an installation failed [error 5] input/output error (often due to a faulty cd/dvd disk or drive). i know with ubuntu i was having some trouble burning it, but it worked (or so i thought) with nero in windows. does anyone have any idea what i should do to make sure this doesn't happen again?
[02:09] <CMD_L1N3> can someone help me with the new network manager?
[02:09] <hvgotcodes> is clflushsize the number of bits
[02:09] <kitty_> fallore, its called using the md5sum to makesure your iso image is intact
[02:09] <cyhdudu> 这个聊天软件有没有中文的房间啊？
[02:09] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> whats the issue?
[02:09] <tovella> fallore: try burning at a really slow speed (like 4x).
[02:09] <blahblahx_> on ibex, when i enable the cube, roatate cube, and four workspaces, i dont get a cube (only a two sided "wall") and i can't access the bottom two on the panel app
[02:09] <fallore> kitty_ thanks, i'm glad i know what it's called. k3b checked that.
[02:10] <Flannel> !cn | cyhdudu
[02:10] <harushimo> is a there way to install Intrepid through the command line
[02:10] <Flannel> harushimo: install or upgrade from Hardy?
[02:10] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: my nm-applet icon has disappeared
[02:10] <kitty_> if the image is good when you burn it, and the image is good after you burn it (like you used the "check cd contents" in the boot menu) and it still bombs, then you'll probably have to use the alternate install cd
[02:10] <harushimo> Flannel: hardy never worked for me, so install
[02:10] <Flannel> harushimo: You need the alternate CD, and thats a textmode installer
[02:10] <danc3> harushimo: you just boot the CD
[02:10] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> try to restart x.. ctrl+backspace  and re-login
[02:11] <CMD_L1N3> i have tried that. restarted computer. restarted network manager
[02:11] <harushimo> because I got the textmode installer for Hardy, it didn't work for me
[02:11] <PATX> hello
[02:11] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: i have tried that. restarted computer. restarted network manager
[02:11] <harushimo> i'll try it again
[02:11] <NotADJ> Is there a way to set up a Linux print server that will tunnel to one over SMB?
[02:11] <harushimo> where would I get the text mode installer
[02:11] <MnemonicPunk> fallore: I was getting exactly the same error but for some unknown reason it seems to be installing now.
[02:12] <PATX> is it possiple to download Ubuntu but still have windows?
[02:12] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> if you right click on that panel and then add it
[02:12] <danc3> harushimo: the "alternate" installation CD
[02:12] <kitty_> PATX yes
[02:12] <woli> hi. If i installed 8.04 over 8.10, would that work as a downgrade?
[02:12] <NotADJ> !dualboot | PATX
[02:12] <PATX> thanks
[02:12] <MaT-dg> I want to install azureus <IP_ADDRESS> in intrepid but synaptics installs vuze instead (azureus 3.x.x.x), can I still install the older version without the vuze crap?
[02:12] <danc3> blahblah5: why do you keep leaving and then re-joining?
[02:12] <NotADJ> !test
[02:13] <NotADJ> :P
[02:13] <NotADJ> !fail
[02:13] <n8tuser> woli only fresh install
[02:13] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: i don't need network monitor. i need the icon that you click and it lists available networks
[02:13] <woli> n8tuser: ah...
[02:13] <danc3> blahblah5: why do you keep leaving and then re-joining?
[02:13] <kitty_> CMD_L1N3, apt-get install wifi-radar
[02:13] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> its not on the list of icons to be added ?
[02:13] <GodfatherofEire> n8tuser, I'm having a bit of trouble with the wireless. again
[02:14] <blahblahx_> on ibex, when i enable the cube, roatate cube, and four workspaces, i dont get a cube (only a two sided "wall") and i can't access the bottom two on the panel app
[02:14] <waxhead> jrib: sorry... was having lunch... did what fix my problem?
[02:14] <flo__> MnemonicPunk: I don't see anything that stands out to me.
[02:14] <waxhead> jrib: I've installed vim full too BTW...
[02:14] <n8tuser> GodfatherofEire-> you do? what did we do to make it work last time?
[02:14] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: no.
[02:14] <Dorobo18jp> can some one help me out i downloaded firefox 3 adn dont know how to install it
[02:14] <fallore> mnemonicpunk: how far did the install get before it failed?
[02:14] <jrib> waxhead: did you do    :syntax on
[02:14] <Flannel> Dorobo18jp: What version of Ubuntu are you on?
[02:14] <CMD_L1N3> kitty_:  i would rather keep the gnome applet. it is running just no icon
[02:14] <waxhead> my ~/.vimrc has syntax=on already
[02:15] <gleesond> so it looks like all the pkgs were installed correctly
[02:15] <GodfatherofEire> Yes, you had me check the /etc/network/interfaces file, and when I rebooted the xorg.conf file, it started working
[02:15] <MnemonicPunk> fallore: First few %. But now it got past copying the files.
[02:15] <Dorobo18jp> hmm good question not the new one the one before
[02:15] <gleesond> but It keeps thowing an error
[02:15] <MnemonicPunk> fallore: It just crashed with an error. =(
[02:15] <gleesond> http://pastie.org/305686
[02:15] <Flannel> Dorobo18jp: lsb_release -a
[02:15] <GodfatherofEire> (Was on my friends laptop, why I'm using a different name)
[02:15] <fallore> that sucks, mnemonicpunk :/ i think i'm going to try burning the iso again
[02:15] <kitty_> CMD_L1N3, it doesn't replace it, it just lets you have something if you can't get your network monitor applet to work
[02:15] <azhang2110> hi, anyone can help me, i install vmware in ubuntu 8.10 but it reminds  "asm/semaphore.h: no such file or directory"
[02:16] <Dorobo18jp> 8.04
[02:16] <Flannel> Dorobo18jp: Then you already have firefox 3 installed
[02:16] <waxhead> oh lord....
[02:16] <jrib> waxhead: hmm?
[02:16] <ffej2ffej> Hello, everyone
[02:16] <GodfatherofEire> n8tuser: You had me edit the /etc/network/interfaces file. Didn't initially work, but after restarting the xorg.conf, it did.
[02:16] <waxhead> jrib: I think it's been an error in my .vimrc file
[02:16] <waxhead> sigh...
[02:16] <mimor> hello ffej2ffej

[02:17] <jeeves_Moss> what causes my Samba server to be limited to 330KB/sec on a 100Mb/Sec on a wired connection
[02:17] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> you may have to click application launcher or customized launcher and have nm as the command behind it
[02:17] <waxhead> I'm ot of here...

[02:18] <n8tuser> GodfatherofEire-> can you paste in pastebin that /etc/network/interfaces file ?
[02:18] <DeVnOrE_> and diskts,cpu and such limits as welll
[02:18] <pawan> unable to install nvidia drivers
[02:18] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: i don't need the launcher. the icon that you can view available networks is missing
[02:18] <jeeves_Moss> DeVnOrE, how do I squeeze ANY extra speed outta it?
[02:18]  * DeVnOrE_ shound be ignored
[02:19]  * DeVnOrE_ is drunk
[02:19] <ffej2ffej> I have been working on a project on an Ubuntu server.  I write my scripts then upload them to the server using FTP.  2 days ago, I started getting messages that said, "permission denied."  C'mon!  I'm the administrator for the server!  I grant permissions!  I checked the permissions of the folder, the file I'm trying to upload, etc., etc.  I can't figure out what's wrong.  Any suggestions?
[02:19] <kitty_> CMD_L1N3, right click on one of your panels, add to panel, then find "network monitor" and click it
[02:19] <jeeves_Moss> DeVnOrE, it just seems that the trans level is slow
[02:20] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> if you click on application launcher and down near the bottom is the administration, then select network
[02:20] <ffej2ffej> Also, I went to the office where the server is today, and all the ownerships and permissions seem to be just like they should be.

[02:20] <Terabyte> hey, mirc equivalent for linux?
[02:20] <Terabyte> (ubuntu)
[02:20] <kitty_> bitchx
[02:20] <Cycom> Terabyte: irssi, xchat, mIRC under wine...
[02:21] <Terabyte> thanks
[02:21] <Flannel> kitty_: Not bitchx.  It's dangerous (and not in the repos)
[02:21] <PATX> Another questtion... I do not have a recovery CD will it be safe to download Ubunta?
[02:21] <DeVnOrE_> jeeves_Moss: i can awnswer that in the morning. at the moment i'm just comming home strom a frat-party
[02:21] <n8tuser> GodfatherofEire-> which interface do you want connected to the internet? btw line 7 is wrong  it is dhcp not dhcpow
[02:21] <Cycom> Terabyte: given that you are one of those masochists that uses mIRC, I'd suggest the last one for the least difficult switch.  irssi will likely make you cry.  It's too simple and easy :)
[02:22] <jeeves_Moss> DeVnOrE, lol, must be nice
[02:22] <GodfatherofEire> Must've accidentally added that
[02:22] <DeVnOrE_> jeeves_Moss: @ the moment i can just say that samba has alot of overherad
[02:22] <kitty_> i am trying to restore a dual boot system, sda1 -> fat16 win95 system, sda3 -> /boot, sda6 -> win2kas... when i try to boot the "other operating systems" in grub, it just stalls with a "Starting up ..." prompt, there is no other warnings or errors, anyone want to offer helps?
[02:22] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: that is not one mine
[02:22] <Flannel> Terabyte: The equivalent of mIRC would be Xchat in Ubuntu, Konversation in Kubuntu
[02:22] <n8tuser> GodfatherofEire-> and i have suggested you read   man interfaces  so you may understand those parameters.
[02:23] <Cycom> Terabyte: I like irssi.  In all seriousness, mIRC works, as do all the other suggestions presented (except bitchx, I guess.)
[02:23] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: i am using ubuntu 8.10
[02:23] <jeeves_Moss> DeVnOrE, well, I just think it's REALY sad that this thing is transfering so slow
[02:23] <DeVnOrE_> Terabyte: a nother less graphical solutaion is irssi
[02:23] <arooni> for anyone familair with rdiff-backup can i just run: rdiff-backup --print-statistics /home/chasetoys /media/seagate320/backup/  ..... as a cronjob entry every day and and rdiff-backup will do the right things, i.e. backing up the changes from the last time it synced.  and will i always have the latest files on the backup?
[02:23] <incadudeF> wow Ubuntu 8.10 is awesome
[02:23] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> after you click application launcher, do you see adminstration on the menu ?
[02:23] <incadudeF> everything works perfect
[02:23] <MaT-dg> can I add a repo from hardy in my intrepid to download older versions of packages?
[02:24] <incadudeF> is there anyway i can donate via paypal?
[02:24] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: yes. but there is only 'network tools'. no 'network'
[02:24] <DeVnOrE_> jeeves_Moss: that's just the way samba works
[02:24] <Visitor15> Anyone run Ubuntu 8.10 on a Macbook with Atheros wireless card in it?
[02:24] <NotADJ> Is there a way to set up a Linux print server that will tunnel to one over SMB? (On another host)?
[02:24] <Flannel> MaT-dg: Probably not, they likely depend on newer versions
[02:24] <NotADJ> Visitor15: Me
[02:24] <Flannel> incadudeF: contact your LoCo team and see how you can help.
[02:24] <Visitor15> NotADJ: How is it? Detected automatically?
[02:24] <DeVnOrE_> guess nfs could be faster, (but less secure)
[02:24] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> hang on..let me check
[02:24] <Cycom> Terabyte: do you know how to use ssh? How about screen?
[02:24] <NotADJ> Visitor15: It is fine, but its range is limited, yes.
[02:24] <incadudeF> LoCo team? Sorry im a newb
[02:24] <Flannel> incadudeF: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList
[02:24] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: ok. thanks
[02:25] <MaT-dg> Flannel, I just need 1 java based application..
[02:25] <Barnabas> ssh what? to do what
[02:25] <Flannel> MaT-dg: Which one?
[02:25] <Visitor15> NotADJ: Ah well, glad to see it's finally recognized without having to manually install it.
[02:25] <GodfatherofEire1> Sorry bout that, I use both n8tuser
[02:25] <tom___> I'm having major problems; X doesn't want to load. It just freezes...
[02:25] <GodfatherofEire1> I.e. I need both working
[02:25] <jvrmrtn> hello every one
[02:25] <tom___> any ideas?
[02:25] <jblp> Incadude of course
[02:25] <DeVnOrE_> tom___: what does xorg.log say?
[02:25] <kitty_> were would be a more appropriate place to ask for help with boot problems in dual boot?
[02:25] <MaT-dg> Flannel, azureus <IP_ADDRESS>, hardy installed that version, intrepid installs vuze <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:26] <Cycom> tom___: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:26] <DeVnOrE_> /var/log/Xorg.log (or something)
[02:26] <tom___> ok hold on
[02:26] <Terabyte> Hey cycom
[02:26] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> go to system -->preferences-->menu and then add that network  and it should show up on the application launcher afterwards
[02:26] <Terabyte> yes i know how to use ssh
[02:26] <Cycom> Terabyte: da comrade?
[02:26] <Cycom> oh
[02:26] <binMonkey> hi, guys.
[02:26] <jvrmrtn> I need help to install Nvidia drivers in intrepid, i have a GeForce mx 440
[02:26] <Visitor15> NotADJ: How about the sound? Does it still require some tweaking?
[02:26] <Flannel> MaT-dg: azureus exists in intrepid, version 3.1.1: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/azureus
[02:26] <Ravic> Hi :) I've a little problem. I've to intall a Ubuntu Livecd, but i haven't got a cd reader :P Can i copy the cd contents into a folder (or a partition) and use grub to boot it?
[02:26] <Cycom> Terabyte: screen is another command.  Is the machine you have linux on a desktop or a laptop?  Do you leave it on all the time?
[02:26] <n8tuser> GodfatherofEire-> will both interfaces be connected to same router/gateway?
[02:26] <NotADJ> Visitor15: Speakers are fine
[02:26] <Flannel> MaT-dg: just don't choose to install vuze as well.
[02:27] <fallore> is there a way that i can install intrepid without burning it to a cd?
[02:27] <GodfatherofEire1> Not always
[02:27] <DeVnOrE_> jvrmrtn: it said somthing bout that in the relaesenotes
[02:27] <Terabyte> ok thanks
[02:27] <Terabyte> it's a virual machine
[02:27] <Terabyte> desktop tho
[02:27] <NotADJ> fallore: USB
[02:27] <GodfatherofEire1> The wired, most likely, the wireless, not always
[02:27] <MnemonicPunk> brb, trying to boot from installed Ubuntu 8.10. Wish me luck! :D
[02:27] <binMonkey> i have a broadcom wireless card.  if i upgrade to 08.10 will i retain my ndiswrapper setup or will i have to do it all over again?
[02:27] <Terabyte> just wondering what the command 'build essentials' or something, is exactly for being able to do g++ stuff
[02:27] <NotADJ> !usb | fallore
[02:27] <DeVnOrE_> jvrmrtn: about beeing not supported and has to use the nv drivers
[02:27] <Feldegast> i upgraded to 8.10 and now i have no DNS resolution, i am able to connect to the internet and browse webpages using ip address...any sugestions?
[02:27] <n8tuser> GodfatherofEire-> only one at a time, or else you'd get a hell of a routing problem, so choose now, which one?
[02:27] <incadudeF> i guess i can buy a shirt. :-D
[02:27] <n8tuser> !who | GodfatherofEire
[02:28] <DeVnOrE_> w/o graphics opt,,,
[02:28] <kitty_> no help here at all?
[02:28] <DeVnOrE_> kitty_: ?
[02:28] <Ravic>  Hi :) I've a little problem. I've to intall a Ubuntu Livecd, but i haven't got a cd reader :P Can i copy the cd contents into a folder (or a partition) and use grub to boot it?
[02:28] <NotADJ> kitty_: ?
[02:28] <tom___> i'm in  command line at the moment, is there any way I can post Xorg.0.log to you guys?
[02:28] <Terabyte> kitty repeat?
[02:28] <n8tuser> Feldegast-> what is the contents of your /etc/resolv.conf ?
[02:28] <cliechti> CMD_L1N3: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/249404/comments/4
[02:28] <GodfatherofEire1> Well, I'm using the wired connection right now to Connect, so I can just run sudo ifup eth0
[02:28] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: i don't think i stated my question right. I don't need a nm-applet launcher i need the icon that show available network and lets you switch from wired to wireless networks
[02:28] <NotADJ> !usb > Ravic
[02:28] <Flannel> Ravic: How about a USB drive?
[02:28] <CMD_L1N3> n8tuser: please i mean no offense
[02:28] <kitty_> trying to find help with boot issues (dual boot) that stopped working after upgrading from dapper
[02:28] <Flannel> kitty_: Dapper to Hardy?
[02:29] <Ravic> My old laptop don't support USB boot :( :(
[02:29] <incadudeF> 8.04 didnt work on my Toshiba Laptop. But 8.10 works perfect.
[02:29] <kitty_> fiesty
[02:29] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> no offense taken ..but for that network icon to show up, it has to be added in the main menu first
[02:29] <MaT-dg> Flannel, nope, install vuze again, I even installed this .deb https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/amd64/azureus/<IP_ADDRESS>-1ubuntu4 and guess what? It installed vuze <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:29] <NotADJ> Ravic: Netboot
[02:29] <DeVnOrE_> kitty_: grub is using UUIDs from now on
[02:29] <NotADJ> !netboot
[02:29] <Terabyte> ah, can't help, i've got rid of all boot issues by virtualisations, no doubt opening another can of worms
[02:29] <Feldegast> n8tuser> it is empty
[02:29] <n8tuser> CMD_L1N3-> and i didnt say nm-applet
[02:29] <binMonkey> i have a broadcom wireless card.  if i upgrade to 08.10 will i retain my ndiswrapper setup or will i have to do it all over again?
[02:29] <Flannel> kitty_: er.... you upgraded from dapper to feisty? recently?
[02:29] <Ravic> No way... Only cd or HD
[02:29] <kitty_> ubuntu works fine, other os's don't work at all
[02:29] <Ravic> :/(
[02:29] <DeVnOrE_> you have to check the UUIDS of the disks...
[02:29] <n8tuser> Feldegast-> what is empty?
[02:29] <incadudeF> Anyway to see if i can get a better OS driver for my intel graphics chipset?
[02:29] <NotADJ> I think I may redo sister's PC...
[02:30] <littlelambda> hmmm, is there anyway I can eject the live CD while running it?
[02:30] <DeVnOrE_> kitty_: check the UUID of the windows partition.
[02:30] <Feldegast> n8tuser my resolv.conf
[02:30] <n8tuser> Feldegast-> oh, then thats the reason you can not resolve a hostname , you are not pointing to a nameserver
[02:30] <kitty_> grub doesn't care about uuid
[02:30] <Danny1> Hey, I just installed Ubuntu 8.10 and its asking me for a Username and Password, I have not set one is there a default one? Thanks
[02:30] <Flannel> kitty_: Did you upgrade from Dapper straight to Feisty?
[02:30] <cliechti> my keyboard is screwd up since the upgrade. very annoying
[02:30] <Ravic> My Motherboard don't support Net and USB boot... So i want to use grub to load the live cd... I think it's possible, but i don't know which params i've to use in menu.lst
[02:30] <Terabyte> if i apt-get install a program (say irssi), how do i make it appear in the 'start' menu?
[02:31] <kitty_> i had to use the alternate install cd and i had to over-write my dapper install
[02:31] <GodfatherofEire1> n8tuser, I also use the wireless more often, so its probably a better idea to go with the wireless
[02:31] <DeVnOrE_> Terabyte: depends of the program
[02:31] <kitty_> cause the apt-get update, and distro broke my box
[02:31] <Feldegast> n8tuser i set 2 dns servers in what i thought was edit network connections
[02:31] <n8tuser> Danny1-> you should have created one during install
[02:31] <Terabyte> DeVnOrE irssi specifically then
[02:31] <factotum> man, i wanna drive out to suns headquarters and hug the virtualbox devs, i can keep InDesign and Illustrator around now! Wooo!  Problem now is that I can keep taking my work home with me...grrr
[02:31] <Flannel> MaT-dg: vuze is "recommended" by azureus, which means in most package managers, it installs vuze as well as azurues if you tell it to install azureus.
[02:31] <Terabyte> DeVnOrE in principle what is needed?
[02:31] <maynards-girl> how do i change my resolution since upgrading to 8.10?
[02:32] <Danny1> n8tuser: this is what I have done in the past but the installation did not promote me to set one
[02:32] <maynards-girl> it wont going higher than 800x600
[02:32] <Flannel> MaT-dg: Ironically, vuze *requires* azrueus.  You should have regular azrueus as well.
[02:32] <binMonkey> i have a broadcom wireless card.  if i upgrade to 08.10 will i retain my ndiswrapper setup or will i have to do it all over again?
[02:32] <Feldegast> !dns
[02:32] <MnemonicPunk> IT WERKS! :D
[02:32] <MnemonicPunk> Thanks for your help. =)
[02:32] <Cycom> !screen
[02:32] <n8tuser> GodfatherofEire-> then comment out line7 and add   auto wlan0 at the end
[02:32] <ohzie> !proftp
[02:32] <Flannel> kitty_: Alright, so you're on a fresh install right now?
[02:32] <DeVnOrE_> -> Off
[02:32] <kitty_> i've been using it for about 3 months or so so "freshish" i'd like not to have to reinstall either windows or ubuntu
[02:33] <n8tuser> Feldegast-> so whats the contents of your /etc/resolv.conf now?
[02:33] <n8tuser> Danny1-> you can reboot to a liveCD and add the user manually
[02:33] <ohzie> Is there any reason that using a usb hard drive as an ftp root for proftpd would make it so that I cannot write with that ftp connection?
[02:33] <Flannel> kitty_: Feisty isn't supported anymore.  You should have installed something more recent.  You should either attempt an upgrade to Gutsy, or reinstall Hardy.
[02:33] <GodfatherofEire1> Ok, save, restart and If when I'm back I'll let you know if it worked or not
[02:33] <MaT-dg> Flannel, ok, u know how I can 'un-recommend' vuze when installing azureus?
[02:33] <Smegzor> I'm stuck upgrading my wife's 8.04 to 8.10.  I keep getting an error like 'upgrade from intrepid to hardy is not supported by this tool'.  Its messed up somehow and I don't know how to fix it.  I can do a clean install, but I shouldn't need to.   What do I do to fix a bad upgrade?
[02:33] <Flannel> kitty_: In the future, upgrade LTS to LTS (which is possible, you can go straight from 6.06 to 8.04, and in a few years you'll be able to go straight from 8.04 to 10.04)
[02:34] <Flannel> MaT-dg: Just deselect it for installation
[02:34] <kitty_> whatever help me with the dual boot problem?
[02:34] <arooni> \\for anyone familair with rdiff-backup can i just run: rdiff-backup --print-statistics /home/chasetoys /media/seagate320/backup/  ..... as a cronjob entry every day and and rdiff-backup will do the right things, i.e. backing up the changes from the last time it synced.  and will i always have the latest files on the backup?
[02:34] <GodfatherofEire1> n8tuser: Also, would there be any way to roll back to the 0.6 Network manager just in case 0.7 becomes too problematic?
[02:34] <binMonkey> i have a broadcom wireless card.  if i upgrade to 08.10 will i retain my ndiswrapper setup or will i have to do it all over again?
[02:34] <Feldegast> n8tuser it is blank (except for the comment at the top) i need to know how to tell ubuntu to use specific dns servers i think
[02:34] <Flannel> kitty_: It's not whatever.  Right now you're on an unsupported version of Ubuntu, which is dangerous.  You really need to upgrade, and I wanted to impress that upon you.  Now, what "doesn'
[02:34] <Flannel> kitty_: what "doesn't work" when booting to the other OSes?
[02:35] <andresjatsaint> wow
[02:35] <andresjatsaint> ok
[02:35] <n8tuser> Feldegast-> an entry of   nameserver  x.x.x.x     x.x.x.x if what your isp allowed you to use
[02:35] <agoole> can anyone help me shut down apache on ubuntu ? having problems not that i've set it up...
