[07:31] <daleth> Can anyone outside the US try to open the webpage http://www.futureflex.com for me?  I've gotten complaints that non-us people can't get there.  Trying to troubleshoot...
[07:31] <_jvictor> np..anytime :)
[07:31] <kupesoft> daleth: Way off topic.
[07:32] <Meltdown79> MystaMax hehe... seems like it got everything i wont.. but the most important thing... PHP support..hehe
[07:32] <variant> daleth: that is not really an ubuntu related issue, this is not the place to ask that kind of thing (a cynical man would think you were just trying to generate hits)
[07:33] <surripui> can anyone hlep me with my boot without X on 6.10 desktop question?
[07:33] <MystaMax> Meltdown79, easy eclipse can help with that. you're going through the same steps i went through. I also do webdev work
[07:33] <Zaggynl> !prism
[07:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about prism - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:33] <slippyr4> is there a way to list all currently loaded kernel modules
[07:33] <variant> slippyr4: lsmod
[07:33] <_jvictor> lsmod
[07:33] <slippyr4> thanks
[07:33] <variant> slippyr4: you might want to pipe that to more or less, there will be a lot of modules on ubuntu
[07:34] <variant> TabooTreez: #wine is the place to ask
[07:34] <TabooTreez> variant: ive done so
[07:34] <Meltdown79> MystaMax, yeah, but all programs i have checked does miss one thing that i need... no program does have all the support that dreamweaver has =)
[07:34] <Meltdown79> Guess i just have to live with it if i want to go linux =)
[07:35] <MystaMax> Meltdown79, thats the conclusion i came to
[07:35] <wolferine> when I try and dl the unbuntu .iso using FlashFXP, it shows as a shortcut in the dir (the icon it), and I still cannot get the file, is this a common problem?
[07:36] <MystaMax> wolferine, doesn't sound common
[07:36] <ndee> hello there, is the open source driver for ATI cards more stable than the proprietary driver?
[07:36] <MystaMax> wolferine, what server are you going to
[07:36] <ndee> the problem is, when I sometimes restart my X server, the whole computer freezes and I can't do a thing and I read, that it's a problem of the ATI driver.
[07:36] <wolferine> ndee been working on it for awhile now? (i am just starting to get ati to work) ?
[07:37] <ndee> wolferine: hm?
[07:37] <Meltdown79> MystaMax if i would only be working with php etc i could be using phpED wich is a very nice phpeditor.... then linux would work really nice.. but when needing photoshop and dreamweaver this looks hard.. Gimp is just not good enough and there is no program similar to dreamweaver..hehehe... I guess i will just have linux at home for now... to play with
[07:37] <redguy> is there any difference between the -386 kernel and the -generic kernel?
[07:37] <Shaffox> !wiki
[07:37] <ubotu> wiki is http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Loads of user-contributed documentation
[07:37] <variant> Meltdown79: you can install dreamweaver in wine
[07:38] <redguy> if there is - what's the difference?
[07:38] <wolferine> ndee your trying to get the ATI drivers to work in linux
[07:38] <wolferine> correct?
[07:39] <HymnToLife> redguy, the 386 kernel is designed to work even on veeeeeery old hardware
[07:39] <ndee> wolferine: no, I have the driver running and also had beryl running etc.
[07:39] <HymnToLife> so it has no optimizations, and thus will run slower on new hardwre
[07:39] <Meltdown79> variant, yepp.. I have been trying to do it... two ways, first i installed it in windows and copied all the files like the tutorials tells me... then I found a tutorial that told me to install the program using wine.. nothing worked though... didnt get it to run on my Ubuntu 6.10.. dreamweaver MX 2004.. =)  Maybe it was me who screwed up
[07:39] <wolferine> sweet
[07:39] <ndee> wolferine: I'm thinking about switching to the open source driver, if it's more stable.
[07:39] <variant> Meltdown79: real men use emacs
[07:39] <wolferine> thats the point I am trying to get to
[07:39] <shatrat> ndee, what card do you have?
[07:39] <variant> Meltdown79: http://www.z123.org/techsupport/lxdrtut.htm
[07:39] <ndee> shatrat: I have the ATI T2 Firegl 128, in a Thinkpad T42p
[07:39] <Meltdown79> =)
[07:40] <HymnToLife> redguy, so unles your PC is ~15 years old, you should go with the generic :p
[07:40] <wolferine> ndee, can I talk to you in pm, to see what I need to do to get past some pitfalls?
[07:40] <shatrat> ndee, do you know what core that uses?
[07:40] <nofxx> hi.. my samsung LCD is offset to the right... using 'nv' driver.... samsung says 30-81 HSync... can I play with that value?? what can I do?
[07:40] <ndee> wolferine: yep, np
[07:40] <ndee> shatrat: let me check
[07:40] <MystaMax> Meltdown79, is vmware overkill for u?
[07:40] <jove> can the i686 kernel run on an AMD-K6?
[07:41] <Meltdown79> MystaMax, im running vmware... thats how i survive =) Got DW and photoshop installed heheh
[07:41] <nofxx> jove: nope
[07:41] <shatrat> noflxfor starters I wouldnt use the "nv" driver.
[07:41] <redguy> HymnToLife: ok, so the generic is equivalent to the old -i686 ?
[07:41] <ndee> shatrat: FGL 9600
[07:41] <shatrat> redguy, not entirely, -generic also supports dual core and hyperthreading
[07:41] <HymnToLife> redguy, more or less, actually it is a replacement for all the optimized kernels
[07:41] <nofxx> shatrat: its a thin client..... apt-get is not working on the ltsp chroot... so I can install nvidia
[07:42] <HymnToLife> !generic | redguy
[07:42] <ubotu> redguy: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[07:42] <daleth> variant: kupesoft: OK, where *do* you recommend I go for that.  I just thought there's a stable of people of an international flavor... Maybe they can help...
[07:42] <Meltdown79> MystaMax, only problem with running windows xp in vmware is that it is kind of slow.... it slows my computer down a bit... i only have 1 gig of ram.... probably need more to make vmware to run nicely =)
[07:42] <shatrat> nofxx, I see.  not sure what you can do in that case
[07:42] <redguy> HymnToLife: thanks this seems what I was looking for
[07:42] <variant> daleth: ask a friend
[07:42] <ndee> shatrat: I think it's a 9600 core, radeon 9600 or something
[07:42] <nofxx> shatrat: *can't install ... ahh ok.. ty man
[07:43] <shatrat> ndee, well if it is related to the 9x00 series then it should be able to work with the open source driver.
[07:43] <variant> daleth: would you phone the gas company to check if your website was working? no, so don't ask such things here either please
[07:43] <MystaMax> Meltdown79, i can't say the same, although I've got more RAM. I can run 3 vm, beryl, on dual desktops no problem
[07:43] <Voria1> hey guys
[07:43] <daleth> variant: nice.  #ubuntu... where the otterly obvious is handed off as assistance.
[07:43] <ndee> shatrat: but do you think it would be more stable than the proprietary driver?
[07:43] <Voria1> is this the support channel?
[07:43] <variant> daleth: #ubuntu an ubuntu support channel where support for roasting chickens and other unrelated things cannot be found
[07:44] <variant> Voria1: indeed it is
[07:44] <Voria1> variant: i got a simple question
[07:44] <Voria1> i hop
[07:44] <nofeardjb> What's the command to turn off or 'remove' your sound module?
[07:44] <Meltdown79> MystaMax, yeah.. Im able to run Windows Xp nicely.... it works good, but... it doesnt work as good as a windows machine... with only windows installed..hehe... When im running photoshop, dreamweaver, browser and a few more apps in windows.. it get very slow.. =)'
[07:44] <variant> Voria1: ask away
[07:44] <shatrat> ndee, meth addicts are more stable than the proprietary ATI drivers.
[07:44] <sable> In the package manager, what is the difference between romval, and complete removal?
[07:44] <ndee> shatrat: lol
[07:45] <Voria1> I just installed 6.06, but apt wouldn't download anything so i replaced sources.list with the one on the ubuntu website. I'm trying to compile a driver but i keep getting errors
[07:45] <red_star_bg> hi
[07:45] <Meltdown79> MystaMax , i love having Windows xp virtual machine on one desktop.... and using beryl makes it really cool... =)  Very easy to switch between linux and windows.. =)
[07:45] <red_star_bg> i love you red star belgrade
[07:45] <nofeardjb> beryl ftw
[07:45] <variant> Voria1: put the errors at www.rafb.net/paste
[07:45] <Voria1> k
[07:45] <Meltdown79> beryl ftw
[07:45] <Voria1> what language do i use
[07:46] <variant> Voria1: plain text
[07:46] <nofeardjb> anyone know how to remove the sound module?
[07:46] <sacater> Meltdown79: beryl sucks, way too cpu intenive with xgl
[07:46] <sacater> cant play games or antyintg
[07:46] <nofeardjb> if your gpu sucks, then beryl will suck
[07:46] <shatrat> nofeardjb, why do you want to do that?
[07:46] <variant> sacater: works better with aiglx
[07:46] <nofeardjb> on my laptop
[07:46] <nofeardjb> i don't want sound on it
[07:46] <Voria1> http://rafb.net/p/mjQ62Y94.html
[07:46] <shatrat> nofeardjb, why not just mute the sound?
[07:46] <variant> nofeardjb: actualy, i have a radeon 7000 igp and beryl works rather nicely
[07:46] <MystaMax> Meltdown79, yea, beryl works well for me
[07:46] <Meltdown79> sacater im not having any problems at all runnig beryl, my cpu is the same when turning it on
[07:46] <nofeardjb> would that work when it boots up?
[07:47] <nofeardjb> cuz i don't want the boot up sound to play when i log in
[07:47] <royel> anyone know what would be preventing a theme from updating the "start" button applications, places, system area, everything else updates correctly but those items.
[07:47] <shatrat> nofeardjb, I think you can disable that in the GDM setup, and then mute everything else in alsamixer
[07:47] <nofeardjb> variant: nice
[07:47] <variant> Voria1: did you run ./configure?
[07:47] <shatrat> nofeardjb, alsamixer migth mute GDM as well
[07:47] <Voria1> variant: lol im such a noob, did i run WHAT?
[07:47] <nofeardjb> shatrat, gdm setup? do explain
[07:47] <variant> Voria1: before you run make run ./configure
[07:48] <Voria1> in the driver source dir?
[07:48] <shatrat> nofeardjb, are you running ubuntu, the gnome version?
[07:48] <nofeardjb> you bet
[07:48] <variant> Voria1: yes
[07:48] <Meltdown79> MystaMax ... I got this program that bugged on me and I just cant make it shut down... I know there is a way to find out what the process id is and then kill it in shell.... you know how to do it, i have forgotten. lol
[07:48] <variant> Meltdown79: killall appname
[07:48] <Voria1> no such file or directory :(
[07:48] <Meltdown79> oh
[07:48] <Meltdown79> thanx variant
[07:48] <variant> Meltdown79: if it wont die do killall -9 appname
[07:48] <nofeardjb> oh!
[07:48] <Meltdown79> kk
[07:48] <shatrat> nofeardjb, in System - >Administration -> Login Window go to the accessories tab and uncheck the sounds
[07:48] <nofeardjb> i found the sound in "sound preferences"
[07:48] <sacater> Meltdown79: go into terminal and do killall 9 <programname>
[07:49] <variant> Meltdown79: you can also press alt f2 and type xkill then any window you click on will die
[07:49] <Voria1> variant: i type "./configure" and it says no such file or directory
[07:49] <Meltdown79> damn, this is a nice channel, i have been working with ubuntu for a couple of months without any help at all.. lol... I should have joined this channel much earlier...haha =) Learned a lot when googeling though
[07:49] <variant> Voria1: fromyour pastebin you seem to be int he wrong dir, type cd .. first
[07:49] <nofeardjb> shatrat: Thank you!
[07:50] <sebrock> hey I'm sitting here with this problem and I know the answer is simple... I cant use the volume changer in ubuntu, ie it doesnt alter the volume. But sound works fine. How do I fix this???
[07:50] <wolferine> whats ggoogle?
[07:50] <variant> Voria1: so, cd.. && ./configure
[07:50] <shatrat> nofeardjb, no problem
[07:50] <Meltdown79> variant LOL... xkill rulez!
[07:50] <MystaMax> Meltdown79, i like to use htop from the commandline
[07:50] <variant> Meltdown79: indeed
[07:50] <shatrat> sebrock, sounds like the volume changer is set to change the wrong volume slider by default
[07:50] <nihilocrat> Does anyone know which package provides openGL headers? I can get glu and glut headers, but not plain old opengl ones
[07:50] <nihilocrat> I've already installed libgl1-mesa-dev
[07:50] <Meltdown79> thanx for telling me about xkill.. =) I have been doing the killall in shell, but xkill works much faster =)
[07:50] <Voria1> variant: what dir am i supposed to be in? im in the same dir as the driver source. is there supposed to be a config file?
[07:50] <britishseapower> using nautilus to browse my samba server works (it sees it and i can copy a 5 mb file)....but when i try to copy a large file (700mb) the transfer just gets slower and slower and eventually times out...any ideas?
[07:51] <shatrat> sebrock, you can right click it and go to preferences and select device to control, you probably want either Main or PCM
[07:51] <sebrock> shatrat, yes something likew that
[07:51] <variant> Voria1: did you install build-essential etc as well?
[07:51] <Voria1> O.o
[07:51] <variant> Voria1: the top leve of the source directory probably
[07:51] <shatrat> sebrock, its PCM for me.
[07:51] <hitammanis> hello once again
[07:51] <user123> I booted into single usermode, how do I mount my filesystem read and write?
[07:51] <HymnToLife> Voria1, what are you trying to compile ?
[07:51] <variant> Voria1: apt-get install build-essential
[07:51] <Voria1> as we speed, variant
[07:51] <nofeardjb> i sure wish beryl would work with integrate intel graphics
[07:51] <Voria1> speak*
[07:51] <wolferine> whats the command to check what X i am running?
[07:51] <variant> wolferine: what version? X -version
[07:51] <chrisjw_> how do you uninstall a package?
[07:51] <shatrat> nofeardjb, what makes you think it doesnt?
[07:52] <variant> chrisjw_: apt-get remove packagename
[07:52] <sebrock> shatrat, now thats strange I dont have PCM as an option
[07:52] <pbureau> chrisjw_, apt-get remove <packagename>
[07:52] <nofeardjb> i tried?
[07:52] <nofeardjb> lol
[07:52] <shatrat> sebrock, well, different strokes for different chipsets, folks
[07:52] <nofeardjb> i just got a white screen
[07:52] <user123> I booted into single usermode, how do I mount my filesystem read and write?
[07:52] <HymnToLife> wolferine, X -version
[07:52] <Meltdown79> MystaMax, you know if there ar any tweaks to get vmware to work better? =) I just gave my windows xp virtual machine 20gig of HD and 512 mb of ram i think.... any other setting so make it run better? =)
[07:52] <nofeardjb> its possible that it wasn't configured correctly as well hehe
[07:52] <shatrat> nofeardjb, possible
[07:52] <HymnToLife> Meltdown79, get a better CPU :p
[07:52] <Voria1> variant: i have gcc, make, kernel hearers, build-essential, what else shold i need?
[07:52] <Meltdown79> MystaMax, and when im running it, it seems like its faster to run it using vmware player, is that how you are suppose to run it right?
[07:52] <variant> Voria1: depends on what your installing
[07:53] <Meltdown79> HymnToLife, yes!! hehe
[07:53] <variant> Voria1: I have to go home now, sorry
[07:53] <pbureau> Voria1, what your trying to get done ?
[07:53] <nofeardjb> hehe
[07:53] <variant> Voria1: refer to pbureau
[07:53] <HymnToLife> Voria1, what are you trying to compile ? (second attempt)
[07:53] <chrisjw_> what's the best emulator to use?
[07:53] <variant> just finished work :D
[07:53] <pbureau> lol variant dont start !

[07:53] <Voria1> i keep getting make errors
[07:54] <chona> i cannot run any command (written in c)..after installing libmysqlclient14-dev...i cannot use "./"
[07:54] <pbureau> Voria1, so you read the README and INSTALL files in that package ? whats does it depend on to make it ?
[07:54] <nofeardjb> do you know what the difference between the xgl and aiglx version is?
[07:54] <Voria1> hm
[07:54] <chrisjw_> what's the best emulator to use???
[07:54] <pbureau> chona, try sudo ./ command

[07:57] <chona> it can find it
[07:57] <nofeardjb> i really didn't know the difference
[07:57] <ptrg> i haven't had too many bugs with 6.10
[07:57] <hitammanis> ptrg: wait one
[07:57] <bauer77> works for me too

[07:58] <shatrat> sebrock, I dont mess with multimedia keyboards myself, not sure.
[07:58] <bauer77> Se2: maybe your hardware is not configured properly
[07:58] <Se2> the windows system is more stable then ubuntu 6.10

[07:59] <trainer__> hi, where do I download the edgy iso that is NOT a live cd??
[07:59] <AMD> Se2 give it some time
[07:59] <nofeardjb> trainer: not possible
[07:59] <shatrat> trainer__, there is an alternate installer available usually in the same place
[07:59] <nofeardjb> trainer: unless its the server iso
[07:59] <HymnToLife> trainer__, at the same place you downloaded your live cd from
[07:59] <AMD> trainer__ you looking for an alternate install
[07:59] <bauer77> only issue I had was Terminal Server client and I resolved that myself
[07:59] <trainer__> AMD yes that one
[07:59] <LjL> !alternate | trainer__
[07:59] <ubotu> trainer__: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[07:59] <Se2> eh, i feel that system will crash son
[07:59] <Se2> :))
[07:59] <LjL> nofeardjb: not really...
[07:59] <LjL> !minimal
[07:59] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[07:59] <nofeardjb> nofeardjb:or alternative install like they said ^^
[08:00] <trainer__> the live cd can't detect my hdd, somone here told me yesterday to get that alternate cd
[08:00] <nofeardjb> LjL: i know... lol
[08:00] <nozey> how can i make apt reinstall the config files of a package?
[08:00] <AMD> http://www.linuxemporium.co.uk/products/ubuntu/
[08:00] <LjL> nofeardjb: then why did you state the contrary? :o)
[08:00] <HymnToLife> nozey, reinstall that package ?
[08:00] <trainer__> LjL thanks
[08:00] <nozey> i unninstaled apache2, then when i reinstall it, apt dont create the /etc/apache2 folder, for exemplo
[08:00] <chona> i cannot run any command (written in c)..after installing libmysqlclient14-dev...i cannot use "./". i can compile using gcc but i can't even run even a simple "hello world" written in C
[08:00] <nofeardjb> LjL: I get jumpy and ahead of myself... =/
[08:00] <HymnToLife> chona, are you sure your bin is in the current dir and executable ?
[08:00] <trainer__> no sweat ;)
[08:01] <IanLiu> Hi
[08:01] <HymnToLife> !hi | IanLiu
[08:01] <ubotu> IanLiu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:01] <nozey> HymnToLife, any tips
[08:01] <sable> In the package manager, what is the difference between romval, and complete removal?
[08:01] <nozey> ?
[08:01] <IanLiu> I am using Dapper Drake, and I wanted to upgrade my GLIBC to 2.4. How I do it?
[08:01] <AMD> trainer__ live cd is better and faster
[08:01] <HymnToLife> IanLiu, compile it from source, or upgrade to Edgy
[08:02] <chona> yes my bin is in the current directory and is executable..
[08:02] <chona> ls
[08:02] <trainer__> AMD but the partitioner hangs
[08:02] <HymnToLife> [20:02]  <AMD> trainer__ live cd is better and faster <= I sincerely hope you're joking
[08:02] <hitammanis> ptrg: are you still here if so http://pastebin.com/881121
[08:02] <AMD> HymnToLife its true http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/02/01/live-cd-vs-alternate-installer/
[08:02] <LMJ> nozey : try  'apt-get install --reinstall <package>' or something like this, check the man apt-get
[08:02] <wolferine> now to check the version of XFree?
[08:02] <Se2> 2 minutes ago the totem was able to play music, but now it doesn't, 2 programs have crashed unexpectly, one program is not responding...
[08:02] <IanLiu> is there a way to upgrade to edgy without reinstalling all ubuntu, or losing data?
[08:02] <Se2> =)
[08:03] <wolferine> how do I do that?
[08:03] <hitammanis> ptrg: I followed this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[08:03] <nozey> LMJ, already tried that and checked the man
[08:03] <sebrock> anyone else who knows where to alter the mapping of a key one the keyboard
[08:03] <Se2> need an restart
[08:03] <AMD> trainer__ burn the cd at a slower speed
[08:03] <nozey> tryed dpkg-reconfigure package too
[08:03] <HymnToLife> faster, maybe, I never really paid attention to the time it took
[08:03] <AMD> Se2 sudo reboot -r now
[08:03] <HymnToLife> but better, no way
[08:03] <shatrat> IanLiu, yes there is, you might want to check the forum thread about it though, it doesn't work 100% reliably
[08:03] <LMJ> sable :   remove the package simply,  remove complete (apt-get --purge)  remove also all config file you modify & directories created
[08:03] <AMD> HymnToLife imho
[08:04] <IanLiu> hmm
[08:04] <IanLiu> better compile from source
[08:04] <nozey> LMJ, it removed. but it dont install the config files again
[08:04] <IanLiu> I must compile libc6 right?
[08:04] <LjL> Se2, if you have a specific question, ask - but just complaining about various less-than-well-defined problems will not be of much use, unfortunately.
[08:04] <Se2> i want to make an 5days uptime but its seems is to hard to make todo with ubuntu
[08:04] <AMD> trainer__	also make sure you drives are set up correctly
[08:04] <hitammanis>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[08:04] <trainer__> so, where do I download the alternate iso? ubotu didnt say
[08:05] <HymnToLife> trainer__, the same place you douwnloaded your live cd from
[08:05] <wolferine> how do I check which XFree I have on my system?
[08:05] <HymnToLife> wolferine, you most likely don't have it at all
[08:05] <nozey> LMJ, take a look: http://paste.ubuntubrasil.org/1631
[08:05] <wolferine> i do
[08:05] <wheels3572> How do I mount a CD?
[08:06] <HymnToLife> but have Xorg instead
[08:06] <sable> anyone know an easy way to install the newest gcc?
[08:06] <wolferine> whats the command to check the version?
[08:06] <bauer77> wheels3572:  google mount a CD
[08:06] <wolferine> for either then, Xorg of XFree
[08:06] <LMJ> nozey : "dpkg -l | grep -i apache"   what is gives to you ?   remove all apache related packages with --purge option,   do a "deborphan" command (or install it if you don't have it,   "apt-get --purge"  all packages who are orphelan,  then do  "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade"  then,  "aptitute install apache2"   etc...
[08:06] <haxality> wheels3572: sudo mount /media/cdrom0
[08:06] <HymnToLife> wolferine, X -version
[08:06] <haxality> wheels3572: in a terminal, of course
[08:06] <rob123> I recently changed my webserver from gentoo to ubuntu server, and now server seems to loose connection every 20 min or so and the come back online again, I did not have this problem before. Any ideeas?
[08:06] <wolferine> doesnt say in X -version
[08:06] <chona> i cannot run any command (written in c)..after installing libmysqlclient14-dev...i cannot use "./". i can compile using gcc but i can't even run even a simple "hello world" written in C
[08:07] <wolferine> just has the rls info about X window system
[08:07] <wolferine> not XFree or Xorg
[08:07] <HymnToLife> wolferine, and what do you want to know ?
[08:07] <raeez> Hi, my computer crashes when loading ubuntu at boot time, but this only happens if any external usb hdd's are in. If i take them out, and then boot, it boots fine into ubuntu. How can i fix this?
[08:07] <wolferine> what version I have of either XFree or Xorg
[08:07] <wheels3572> haxality, not working hmmmmmm
[08:07] <wolferine> thats what I asked wasnt it?
[08:07] <mrkris> I can't seem to recall, what's the package that installs the restricted formats for you?
[08:08] <shatrat> wolferine, try Xorg -version
[08:08] <bauer77> s
[08:08] <sable> anyone know an easy way to install the newest gcc?
[08:08] <HymnToLife> wolferine, it definitely tells you then
[08:08] <pbureau> raeez,  tell your bios to not boot from usb
[08:08] <mc44> wolferine: the version it gives *is* the version of Xorg
[08:08] <mc44> wolferine: most likely 7.1.1
[08:08] <wheels3572> haxality, if I do wheels@wheels-desktop:~$ ls -l /mnt
[08:08] <wheels3572> total 0
[08:08] <wheels3572>  that's the outcome
[08:08] <raeez> pbureau:
[08:09] <raeez> pbureau: It loads perfectly fine in windows..
[08:09] <nozey> LMJ, humm. it worked. seems that apache2 was not the package that had the config files. thank you and im sorry for my english (im brazilian).
[08:09] <wolferine> and to check the kernel version?
[08:09] <raeez> pbureau: and i get to the grub loader and all, just once i select ubuntu then it loads for a while and then crashes
[08:09] <LMJ> raeez :  do you have something related to this USB stoage device on fstab ?  It boots with another OS on it ?  Are you sure that's not a USB poweer cosumption
[08:09] <pbureau> raeez, humm then I dont know.
[08:09] <chona> i changed the permissions and now it says "cannot execute s binary file"
[08:09] <shatrat> wolferine, it will be in that same string
[08:09] <LMJ> welcome nozey
[08:09] <raeez> pbureau: It doesnt actually crash, it sort of just stops responsing
[08:10] <mc44> wolferine: well for one it says so in the X -version :) but you want "uname -r"
[08:10] <raeez> responding*
[08:10] <nofeardjb> shatrat: AIGLX works! weee beryl on my laptop! :D
[08:10] <wolferine> oh it does
[08:10] <shatrat> raeez, try booting without "quiet splash" at the end of your kernel options.
[08:10] <wolferine> well arent you just smrt
[08:10] <shatrat> nofeardjb, Icongratulations
[08:10] <nofeardjb> woohoo!
[08:10] <raeez> shatrat: i have, and i get the same result
[08:11] <nofeardjb> shatrat: ok, give something else to do with my time now lol
[08:11] <raeez> shatrat: it gets to the mounting local fielsystem part and stops there
[08:11] <shatrat> raeez, but can you at least see where it stops?
[08:11] <mrkris> anyone happen to know the tool that aids in install restricted formats and what not?
[08:12] <shatrat> raeez, k, well then it is definitely related to mounting the USB disk.  Maybe adding it permanently to your fstab would help, I dont know.  I dont like to use usb for anything but mice personally
[08:12] <Pici> !easyubuntu | Are you thinking of this mrkris:
[08:12] <ubotu> Are you thinking of this mrkris:: easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[08:13] <nofeardjb> you may be thinking of automatix?
[08:13] <mrkris> ahh yes.
[08:13] <mrkris> both of those would work. thanks :)
[08:13] <nofeardjb> :D
[08:13] <shatrat> mrkris, I wouldnt recommend either, dont
[08:13] <mc44> !automatix | mrkris
[08:13] <ubotu> mrkris: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[08:13] <nofeardjb> hehe i was waiting for that
[08:13] <mrkris> so i shouldn't even use easyubuntu ?
[08:13] <nofeardjb> you guys are quick
[08:13] <Pici> nofeardjb: Then why did you suggest it?
[08:14] <nofeardjb> Pici: cuz i knew that's what he was trying to remember
[08:14] <mrkris> I don't mind doing it by hand, but i'd prefer to just clicks a few buttons so i can get back to work.
[08:14] <nofeardjb> we weren't recommending it, just helping remember what he had forgotten
[08:14] <leafw> any guide on installing .deb packages from sources, so that I can tune the -march=nocona a la gentoo ?
[08:14] <shatrat> mrkris, its not much harder to go and do it using the guide I linked, and it wont hose your upgrade system
[08:14] <ndee> which ATI open source driver can I use for after 9200 chips?
[08:14] <mrkris> Ok.

[08:15] <ndee> shatrat: the FGL 9600

[08:18] <shatrat> ndee, try the steps for the driver listed in this guide.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BerylOnEdgy   I believe the open source driver works with everything up to the x800 currently
[08:18] <shatrat> ndee, just the driver part of that guide, not necessarily any of the other stuff :)

[08:22] <LMJ> what did you do recently ?
[08:22] <shatrat> ndee, well, I think that part is out of date.  I believe code is in the xorg "ati" driver for everything up to x800 by now, , but I dont use my 9600 anymore so I am still looking for confirmation
[08:22] <LMJ> did you edited some scripts or conf files ?
[08:22] <mc44> shatrat: I think thats the case, radeon doesnt exist anymore at least
[08:22] <ndee> shatrat: oh okay.

[08:26] <nofeardjb> how can i get rid of all the server messages in IRC?

[08:33] <plagerism> I am planning on creating a cluster(which kind and how I dont know) and I want to be able to deploy all nodes from the master using either a diskless system or a pxe network install.  I found a guide for using systemimager with 6.0.6 to deploy images across many computers, however in feisty the latest version of systemimager is fairly old(3.2.3).  Because I have no idea how well systemimager works, I am wondering
[08:33] <plagerism>  if anyone has experience using either systemimager or can suggest another approach to deploy images to nodes on a cluster
[08:34] <Aaron> Is there a modification I can make to restore access to my drupal admin account in drupal 4.7?
[08:34] <swimmerino88> LMJ how can i findi it if i can't do nothing!?
[08:34] <chona> i did..i sun it in the same directory..
[08:34] <LMJ> you can start your box and access to this box by pressing  "CTRL+ALT+F2" or via SSH to this box
[08:34] <chona> i can't even perform ./configure
[08:34] <nofeardjb> plagerism: norton ghost does something similiar, but idk if its related to what you want
[08:34] <Nitro> um
[08:34] <AMD> how come im the only one who has a hissing noise problem
[08:34] <dan_> hello
[08:35] <LMJ> swimmerino88 : or boot on a liveCD
[08:35] <plagerism> nofeardjb, I am aware of ghost, however would prefer a free alternative
[08:35] <TwoPints> hello, does anybody know if rdesktop can be used to help somone with remote assistance?
[08:35] <nofeardjb> i thought  that may be what you where thinkin..
[08:35] <Nitro> I have this annoying problem, I managed to install ubuntu, but I can't boot to it. You get the loader, it finishes,  you get a flashing _, 5 secs later it disappears, and nothing happens.
[08:35] <dan_> does anyone know how to connect to a windows remote desktop through ubuntu?
[08:35] <hawke> plagerism: preseed and kickstart do the job nicely for the pxe network install bit
[08:36] <ndee> shatrat: so, direct rendering is not enabled, I think I have to read up some more :D
[08:36] <swimmerino88> LMJ i put my  live cd
[08:36] <TwoPints> dan_: yes use rdesktop
[08:36] <_bt> dan_, rdesktop
[08:36] <Nitro> anyone know why it's happening?
[08:36] <LMJ> chona : ./configure is available only if you have a script called  configure to run it, it you want to compile a little C source code, you have to use a compiler like gcc with  "gcc -o ..." or so
[08:36] <ferret_0567> Ubuntu 6.10 generic kernel is weird. First of all, it's old. Second of all, I was running FAH on the same computer, a P4-M laptop, on FC6 and Ubuntu 6.10; Ubuntu 6.10 and FAH said: "Extra 3DNow boost OK.", FC6 and FAH said: "Extra SSE2 boost OK.", like it should.
[08:36] <dan_> thx guys
[08:36] <TwoPints> dan_: type.. rdeskop <machine_name>
[08:36] <ferret_0567> FAH seems to run slower on Ubuntu 6.10 than FC6
[08:37] <shatrat> ndee, im afraid so :(
[08:37] <wolferine> is there something like partition magic, which I can use to partition drives? (w/o losing data) ?
[08:37] <dan_> is it built into the default install or will i have to get the packages?
[08:37] <chona> i did..i can compile using gcc...but running is the problem...i cant make use of ./
[08:37] <plagerism> hawke: kickstart looks promising thank you, however whats preseed?
[08:37] <TwoPints> i believe it comes with the default install
[08:37] <wheels3572> Can someone help me with mounting my CD-Rom look at my fstab http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5800/
[08:37] <pollywog> wolferine: qtparted or gparted
[08:37] <swimmerino88> LMJ is there a comand who i can see the lat files that i have modified?
[08:37] <TwoPints> dan_: but otherwise just apt-get it
[08:37] <dan_> its there
[08:37] <nofeardjb> preseeding all information i think is what s/he means
[08:37] <hawke> plagerism: preseed is the debian/ubuntu installer configuration system
[08:37] <evanschreier> hey guys i need help .. im trying to set up wireless using gtkwifi, i can connect to the network but i get no internet connection saying dhcp failed
[08:38] <aoirthoir> hey we are all snowed in...but I have my laptop with my work stuff with me..and can anyone guess what OS is on it?
[08:38] <aoirthoir> :D
[08:38] <hawke> plagerism: preseed is to ubuntu/debian as kickstart is to redhat
[08:38] <_bt> wheels3572, what problem are you having
[08:38] <nofeardjb> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KickstartCompatibility
[08:38] <chona> after changing the permissions, from an error command not found, it changed to cannot perfprm binary file
[08:38] <LMJ> swimmerino88 better to check in your history command, you did the modification with the root account ?
[08:38] <TwoPints> dan_: in gnome its called terminal services client
[08:38] <hawke> though ubuntu also has a kickstart compatibility layer.
[08:38] <royel> anyone know what would be preventing a theme from updating the "start" button applications, places, system area, everything else updates correctly but those items.
[08:38] <wolferine> chone, you check your pm?
[08:38] <swimmerino88> LMJ http://www.psql.it/?q=comment/reply/49 i think that i did it
[08:38] <aoirthoir> what is kickstart
[08:38] <wolferine> or do you not know what that is ?
[08:39] <hawke> aoirthoir: an automated network-based install system
[08:39] <chona> wolferine, how can i check my pm?
[08:39] <plagerism> hawke: oh I definately would like a debian based node so preseed, however hawke after the install will this also retain my manual configuration changes?
[08:39] <swimmerino88> LMJ yes i did!
[08:39] <signature16> Is there a way to get VLC Media Player to play files over a network?
[08:39] <wheels3572> _bt, nevermind i figured it out.  the fstab was pointing to hdd and my cd-rom now that I only have 1 is hdc and it was noauto instead of auto
[08:39] <wolferine> nm
[08:39] <ferret_0567> I hope for Ubuntu 7.04, the kernel version is VERY recent, the kernel does not have useless junk compiled in and that weird things like that are fixed by giving the user i686, i386, and i586 kernels like it used to be, plus giving a "generic" kernel.
[08:39] <wheels3572> got it though ty
[08:39] <aoirthoir> hawke COOL!
[08:39] <hawke> plagerism: there's a compat. layer for kickstart, so you can also use kickstart with debian/ubuntu
[08:39] <chona> i checked everything in the permissions but still it can't work
[08:39] <LMJ> to the cdrom problem guy, you could type  "mount /media/cdrom0"
[08:40] <ferret_0567> I do NOT have 3DNow
[08:40] <aoirthoir> i hate 3dnow
[08:40] <hawke> plagerism: preseed/kickstart only cover installation, so yes of course they'll retain manual config changes
[08:40] <LMJ> where is the editing like swimmerino88 ?
[08:40] <hawke> plagerism: of course, if you're talking about upgrades that's an entirely different matter
[08:40] <chona> please help me...i wrote a simple program in C which prints hello world. it compiled properly, but i can't run the object file..i changed the permission to 777 but still it can't run using ./..what shall i do???please..
[08:40] <Lynoure> ferret_0567: more efficient to voice that kernel concern on #ubuntu+1 or even on the developer channel
[08:40] <mc44> ferret_0567: it makes neglible difference to your performance, and is optimised for i686 anyway
[08:40] <Lynoure> chona: please stop repeating that
[08:40] <ferret_0567> I have SSE2. Something is wrong. I checked the MD5SUM on the FAH, too.
[08:40] <YoshiG3> Hey guys, is it safe to update now? I have like 24 updates that are still waiting, including the kernel
[08:40] <wolferine> lol
[08:40] <chona> i need answers..
[08:41] <chona> please
[08:41] <wolferine> goto C
[08:41] <hardcampa> chona you shouldn't be able to run object files
[08:41] <wolferine> they will help you
[08:41] <wolferine> this is an OS help room
[08:41] <silox> Hi, I have a problem with my laptop, a Dell Inspiron 8100. Both internal USB ports are broken so I have to use an external card. This works well but there is one problem, the internal USB ports gives this error "hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 1" and "hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 2" over and over again in the terminal. I cant disable USB in BIOS.. Any ideas?
[08:41] <LMJ> chona : you are on an Ubuntu chat, NOT a C channel, nothing related to Ubuntu in your problem
[08:41] <swimmerino88> LMJ I have found yhe site!!!!!!!
[08:41] <ferret_0567> Thanks, I
[08:41] <swimmerino88> LMJ now i know the file!!!!
[08:41] <aoirthoir> mount /media/girlfriend
[08:41] <ferret_0567> Thanks, I'll do that later. For now, schoolwork.
[08:41] <plagerism> hawke: thank you very much,
[08:41] <LMJ> yes, i saw the tutorial swimmerino88,   what is the file ?
[08:41] <evanschreier> should i go to a diffferent channel for help on wifi connections in ubuntu?
[08:42] <Hairy> mount /media/girlfriend - ROFL. I feel lonley today
[08:42] <ted_> hi. I have a USB HP Deskjet-990C printer connected to <IP_ADDRESS>. I am trying to print using another machine. On that other machine I have entered the following in the Admin - Printing settings : 'ipp://<IP_ADDRESS>:631/printers/Deskjet-990C'. When I send a text file to the printer, the printer activates but just prints garbage. Any ideas?
[08:42] <Hairy> :P
[08:42] <aoirthoir> Hairy: :D lol
[08:42] <Lynoure> !wifi | evanschreier
[08:42] <ubotu> evanschreier: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:42] <Hairy> clean  the print heads?
[08:42] <Lynoure> evanschreier: nope, this one is fine :)
[08:42] <wolferine> have a google trigger?
[08:42] <Hairy> Could be a driver error?
[08:42] <hawke> Is there an installation manual / documentation for Dapper anywhere?
[08:42] <swimmerino88> LMJ i put this lines yesterday->LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/lib
[08:42] <swimmerino88>                                                  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
[08:42] <YoshiG3> Hey guys, is it safe to update now? I have like 24 updates that are still waiting, including the kernel
[08:42] <chona> my problem is with ubuntu...i installed the packages i needed but i can't make use of it..
[08:42] <aoirthoir> hawk go to http://www.ubuntuguide.org/
[08:43] <LMJ> hawk ; look for something like this in google  : "perfect installation of ubuntu dapper"  or so
[08:43] <mc44> YoshiG3: when was it not safe to update?
[08:43] <hawke> I can find one for breezy and warty, nothing for dapper
[08:43] <YoshiG3> mc44: Well there was an error with the linux kernel update a while back
[08:43] <YoshiG3> probably a week
[08:43] <evanschreier> thanks
[08:43] <aoirthoir> hawk i gave you the address
[08:43] <aoirthoir> chona how did you install the packages?
[08:43] <mc44> YoshiG3: its fine now
[08:43] <swimmerino88> LMJ and then i did            cd /etc               kedit profile
[08:43] <wolferine> hehe
[08:43] <LMJ> ok swimmerino88    expert only modify the environnement variable inside the session, it doesn't stay up after a reboot
[08:44] <wolferine> this channel is nutz
[08:44] <Lynoure> mc44: last summer, when there was the X problem in Dapper :)
[08:44] <LMJ> yes wolferine ;)
[08:44] <rpc> WARNING: `aclocal-1.4' is needed, and you do not seem to have it handy on your system <---damn it, i have it in /usr/bin and it says i got none
[08:44] <hawke> aoirthoir: ubuntuguide is only an "unofficial" manual; I'm looking for something like the official manual at http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/main/installer-i386/current/doc/manual/en/
[08:44] <rpc> how do i solve this puzzle?
[08:44] <hawke> only for dapper
[08:44] <swimmerino88> LMJ:now i'm in the live cd how can i modified that thing?
[08:44] <drake> hey guays
[08:45] <drake> how would i be able to reinstall edgy
[08:45] <drake> without losing everything?
[08:45] <aoirthoir> hawk ok
[08:45] <chona> using sudo apt-get install...it installed properly, i guess... because i've used it before..its only after installing the libmysqlclient14-dev that everything can;t work
[08:45] <Lynoure> rpc: What's the it that is saying that you do not have it?
[08:45] <mc44> drake: well, you could backup your home directory
[08:45] <Zaggynl> !blacklist
[08:45] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add "blacklist modulename" to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type "sudo update-initramfs -u"

[08:46] <drake> mc44: alright
[08:46] <ferret_0567> Does the zip command/File-roller compress zip files as well as WinZip 9.0?
[08:46] <dan_> anyone familiar with gfire?
[08:46] <chona> using sudo apt-get install...it installed properly, i guess... because i've used it before..its only after installing the libmysqlclient14-dev that everything can't work
[08:46] <ferret_0567> What is gfire?
[08:46] <mc44> ferret_0567: Im pretty sure they will be using the same compression algorithm
[08:46] <hawke> aoirthoir: nope, but this does: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/index.html  Thanks for pointing me in the right direction
[08:46] <LMJ> swimmerino88 switch in root, then   in a console :   mkdir /mnt/myhd     then, mount /dev/(sda?/hda?)  /mnt/myhd    and then, cd /mnt/myhd  and edit the file your modified using a command line text editor like "vi" or "nano"
[08:46] <pollywog> is that a gaim plugin for xfire?
[08:46] <dan_> it is xfire plugin for gaim
[08:46] <ferret_0567> !gfire
[08:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gfire - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:46] <dimeotane> anyone know a good way to password protect or encrypt a folder?

[08:47] <LMJ> dimeotane  gpg in command line
[08:47] <ferret_0567> Try TrueCrypt or GPG
[08:47] <aoirthoir> hawke:  your welcome
[08:47] <mgmiller> anyone know of a good standalone music equalizer?
[08:47] <swimmerino88> LMJ with the live?
[08:47] <dan_> windows media player!
[08:47] <LMJ> ye
[08:47] <mgmiller> hah
[08:47] <ferret_0567> Both are very good for different scenarios
[08:47] <chona> please help me...i wrote a simple program in C which prints hello world. it compiled properly, but i can't run the object file..i changed the permission to 777 but still it can't run using ./..what shall i do???please..i have installed build-essential using sudo apt-get install...it installed properly, i guess... because i've used it before..its only after installing the libmysqlclient14-dev that everything can't work
[08:48] <wolferine> lol
[08:48] <LMJ> chona : we don't care actually
[08:48] <dimeotane> ferret_0567: I tried to get truecrypt to work... have you used it?   a) it's moderated. b) does anyone read it? (i was actually secretly hoping it sends to debian :)
[08:49] <scheuri> hi all
[08:49] <iratik> http://pastie.caboo.se/40324   on line 11, i'll reject http requests and https requests if I don't put something here !? what do i do ?
[08:49] <dimeotane> howdy
[08:49] <exwebjunkie> evening
[08:50] <dimeotane> exwebjunkie: you must be in europe?
[08:50] <mc44> salty-horse: its not moderated
[08:50] <elyon225> For some reason, every now and then when I log into Ubuntu, it opens up about four file browsers for my home directory.  Anyone know how to fix that?
[08:50] <pap3rw8> hey i've got an atheros wifi card that isnt working in 6.10, any ideas? it has power but doesn't show up in networking
[08:50] <scheuri> My DVD-Multidrive (LG GSA-H10A) gets recognised by my Barebone (Asus V2-P2G965 with intel G965/ICH8), and loads the install routine of Ubuntu, but the install routine then does not recognise a cd-rom to get the packages from...its on IDE not SATA...anyone an idea?
[08:51] <exwebjunkie> dimeotane:  i am
[08:51] <mc44> salty-horse: and because launchpad isnt set up to do bugs like that yet
[08:51] <swimmerino88> LMJ now i am as root and i am in /mnt/myhd/ and now?
[08:51] <exwebjunkie> London to be more specific.
[08:51] <mc44> salty-horse: and lots of people do read it
[08:51] <salty-horse> mc44, i got a standard mailman reply: "The reason it is being held: Post by non-member to a members-only list"
[08:51] <ndee> shatrat: ok, now I have direct rendering enabled. So, how can I get OpenGL to wokr?
[08:51] <ndee> :D
[08:51] <firephoto> scheuri: what version of ubuntu are you trying to install?
[08:51] <shatrat> ndee, same thing
[08:51] <mc44> salty-horse: yes, you have to be signed up to the list to post to it, its not moderated though and anyone can sign up
[08:51] <scheuri> firephoto: I tried 6.06.1 and 7.04 Herd 3....
[08:51] <LMJ> pap3rw8 , any modules related to wifi loaded ? can you see it in "lspci -v"   can you see a device  with  iwconfig command ?
[08:52] <mc44> salty-horse: its to prevent spam
[08:52] <scheuri> firephoto: actually even netinst of Etch
[08:52] <dan_> when i updated my nvidia driver, it installed another kernal....would it be a good idea to re,ove the old one?
[08:52] <shatrat> ndee, if it says direct rendering then you have openGL acceleration.
[08:52] <LMJ> swimmerino88 you mounted your hd partition ?
[08:52] <firephoto> scheuri: the live cd or the alternate?
[08:52] <scheuri> firephoto: alternate...
[08:53] <Hairy> Stork?
[08:53] <pap3rw8> iwconfig shows no wireless devices, but it does show up in lspci as an ar5212 chip
[08:53] <ndee> shatrat: but when I let a opengl screensaver running, it's incredibly slow.
[08:53] <swimmerino88> LMJ yes now i am in root@ubuntu:/mnt/myhd# but if i write dir i can't see nothing!!!!
[08:53] <rpc> do you know which file holds info for checking stuff? so the configure produces output like checking for working aclocal-1.4... missing <[08:53] <salty-horse> mc44, it's a trivial bug in debian too - is it ok to post in debian after i sent it to ubuntu-users? (i usually craft by debian bug reports by hand and not with reportbug)
[08:53] <firephoto> scheuri: that was broke, i think the latest daily might be fixed. the live cd should work with that though. feisty. edgy cd won't.
[08:53] <mc44> salty-horse: you could just file it on launchpad directly
[08:53] <LMJ> swimmerino88   did you do something related with  "mount"  yet ?
[08:53] <mgmiller_> anyone know of any decent standalone audio equalizers?
[08:53] <scheuri> firephoto: do you know what is broke exactly? and why does edgy not work? is ICH8 too new?
[08:53] <swimmerino88> LMJ nothing!
[08:54] <salty-horse> mc44, but then it will bounce back to debian and up to ubuntu again. i'd rather prevent the bouncing
[08:54] <firephoto> scheuri: the edgy cd is missing the module for the ide controller. edgy + updates would work but that isn't much good for a new install.
[08:54] <mc44> salty-horse: its probably better to just report it to debian then, if you are sure it is a problem in debian too
[08:55] <LMJ> swimmerino88 , why you just don't simply mount the partition who is your / on the system, edit the file your fucked, umount the partition, reboot the livecd ?
[08:55] <scheuri> firephoto: oh, that is actually bad...do you know which module that would be? and is it included in feisty?
[08:55] <LMJ> swimmerino88 : google now
[08:55] <LMJ> fucked file*
[08:55] <shatrat> ndee, well, I can't help you there.  It's possible that its just because opengl support through the open driver for newer ATI cards is fairly recent and very fast yet
[08:55] <mc44> LMJ: please dont swear
[08:55] <ndee> shatrat: ah ok :) thanks anyway :)
[08:55] <DigitalNinja> Does anyone know when Feisty comes out?
[08:55] <ndee> don't need opengl so far
[08:55] <swimmerino88> LMJ i search in google but i didn't found nothing!
[08:56] <LMJ> i don't mc44,  let's go for  "messup file"
[08:56] <firephoto> scheuri: i'm running feisty on an intel dg965ss, works good.. mine uses the pata_marvell module, your might be the pata_jmicron module.
[08:56] <ndee> that's also the reason why I installed ubuntu, no more gaming during school ;)
[08:56] <LMJ> swimmerino88 :  how to use a live cd to edit to mount a partition ;)
[08:56] <abhinay> hi all
[08:57] <scheuri> firephoto: heyheyhey...yes....jmicron rings a HUGE bell...its is exactly the name that appears during POST...so jmicron is broke and I need new feisty (daily), right?
[08:57] <abhinay> iam getting this error while i do ./configure to any source package, checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X libraries. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!, Any Idea ?
[08:57] <firephoto> scheuri: yep, should be fine. it's not really broken, just watch the updates carefully.
[08:58] <P-E> a
[08:58] <erf> Im tired of using fluxbox in freebsd
[08:58] <erf> is there anything else I can use
[08:58] <scheuri> firephoto: I will...any hint if there is a good URL to get updated about the updates of feisty?
[08:58] <n2diy>   ! FTA
[08:58] <dimeotane> ok I've installed pgp and seahorse... I right click on the file and made a .pgp file.... now when I want to open it what do I use?  no program is associated with .pgp files
[08:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fta - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:59] <dimeotane> erf: how about xfce  that's nice and light
[08:59] <ubuntus> hello, can i update ubuntu 7.04 alpha to the official realise?
[08:59] <pavement> skarface: try ubuntu for your desktop
[08:59] <firephoto> scheuri: http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/feisty-changes
[08:59] <erf> for freebsd?
[08:59] <pic_> heya all
[08:59] <nofeardjb> xfce rocks
[08:59] <erf> is there a port for it and do I have to restart
[08:59] <erf> I mean I like my uptime stats
[08:59] <ubuntus> does ubuntu 7.04 support any security updates?
[08:59] <abhinay> Where are by x libraries then ?
[09:00] <scheuri> firephoto: thanks a lot!!!
[09:00] <scheuri> firephoto: now I know what keywords to google for
[09:00] <LMJ> dimeotane  why not simply  try the command line way with pgp ?
[09:00] <firephoto> scheuri: np
[09:00] <ubuntus>
[09:01] <dimeotane> LMJ:  I'm listening..
[09:01] <salty-horse> mc44, i could have used reportbug --bts debian :)
[09:02] <LMJ> dimeotane ; let's say, something like  gpg --help and then,  man gpg,  you will learn how to encrypt a file or a partition or so, and decrypt it easily,, you have to be aware about private/public key maybe too
[09:02] <ferret_0567> TrueCrypt will only allow you to map and mount the encrypted file or partition from root but if you select that you don't want to mount the file/partition you can do this to mount the encrypted file user writable with vfat partition type: sudo mount -t vfat -o defaults,uid=<your user id>,gid=<your group id> /dev/mapper/truecrypt* <mountpoint>
[09:02] <erf> downloading the tar now
[09:02] <erf> for xfce
[09:02] <erf> thing is
[09:03] <Pici> !enter
[09:03] <elyon225> For some reason, every now and then when I log into Ubuntu, it opens up about four file browsers for my home directory.  Anyone know how to fix that?
[09:03] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:03] <erf> am i going to have to restart the machine for xfce
[09:03] <ferret_0567> Surprisingly, you don't even have to use "-o loop"
[09:03] <scheuri> firephoto: thanks again....

[09:04] <exs> guys, I'm having a bit of trouble. A few programs will not work on my ubuntu 6.10. First, my vmware player and server stopped working. They would load for about 5 seconds then quit. This is the same behaviour as aMSN, it loads then quits before the GUI comes up. I think synaptic might have made an error and removed a certain needed library/file etc... is there any way I can make aMSN run via installing all the file sit needs al over again so that
[09:04] <exs>  the files it needs are defintely not damaged? Thanks!
[09:04] <Hairy> HAH yeah. Or you have  a hot girlfriend
[09:05] <Hairy> tunfortunatly. I have none of the above >.<
[09:05] <YoshiG3> Guys, I have a new font- and I don't know where it goes. It's a .tff. Where do fonts go in linux?

[09:09] <Hairy> :)
[09:09] <YoshiG3> um, guys, why is my ubuntu telling me that "you are not the owner, you cannot change the permissions to these files"
[09:09] <YoshiG3> ?!?!?!
[09:09] <HymnToLife> YoshiG3, because you are not the owner
[09:09] <dimeotane> YoshiG3: maybe its a file owned by root?
[09:09] <YoshiG3> um, yes I am
[09:09] <HymnToLife> thus you can't change permissions :)
[09:09] <pbureau> YoshiG3, probably owned by root try using sudo in front of the chmod command
[09:09] <YoshiG3> so I have to sudo?
[09:09] <erf> ok if I log out and start a new session
[09:10] <pap3rw8> i've got 3 network cards, none of which can get an IP in ubuntu. the cable is fine, and one of the cards tested worked out of the box in fedora
[09:10] <matt1234> anyone know how to enable CLI php execution?
[09:10] <matt1234> i've got apache and php setup, but it wont work on the command line
[09:10] <erf> what would i type to start the sesssion
[09:10] <erf> xfce
[09:10] <erf> ?
[09:10] <HymnToLife> matt1234, sudo apt-get install php(4|5)-clo
[09:10] <HymnToLife> cli*
[09:10] <pap3rw8> if it matters the current card is a realtek 8169
[09:10] <pbureau> pap3rw8, lspci whats cards are reconized?>
[09:10] <matt1234> HymnToLife, thanks
[09:11] <pap3rw8> linksys gigabit network adapter, and it shows up in networking and lspci
[09:11] <pap3rw8> but it cant get an ip, and static doesnt work either
[09:12] <Crescendo_> From a fresh install, I'm connecting to some servers (places>>connect to server) and when I open the resulting shortcut on the desktop, it just hangs there "connecting to server" - WTF?
[09:12] <Hairy> Must be a dogey card?
[09:12] <bones_> can an open office slideshow be converted to a movie somehow?
[09:12] <pap3rw8> it was working fine yesterday in a different system, and two other cards i tried also failed
[09:12] <YoshiG3> how do I sudo from a file browser?
[09:12] <dimeotane> ferret_0567: in the example you gave.... is the mountpoint the truecrypt file location?  or is it /media/tc
[09:12] <n2diy> ! HTPC
[09:12] <matt1234> HymnToLife, its working now, but now when i run a script, it brings the bash prompt to the end of the script output, instead of the lower left like normal, any idea what thats about?
[09:12] <Hairy> drivers?
[09:12] <LjL> YoshiG3: gksudo nautilus, if you really have to
[09:13] <Hairy> Is it a PCI card?
[09:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about htpc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:13] <Hairy> Is it seater properly?
[09:13] <pap3rw8> yea its pci, its in there snugly. how do i check drivers?
[09:13] <erf> ok done
[09:13] <dimeotane> erf
[09:13] <erf> now
[09:13] <matt1234> HymnToLife, its working now, but now when i run a script, it brings the bash prompt to the end of the script output, instead of the lower left like normal, any idea what thats about?
[09:13] <erf> i log out
[09:13] <erf> and start xfce
[09:13] <erf> ?
[09:14] <erf> or run xfce
[09:14] <erf> ?
[09:14] <dimeotane> the command for xfce from the command line is something like startxfce4 i think
[09:14] <syzygyBSD> how can I get rsync to show what files it is copying?
[09:14] <dimeotane> Or .. at least in ubuntu you can log out and choose a new session with the new windows manager from the login screen
[09:15] <unop> syzygyBSD,  rsync -v ...
[09:15] <midgetg0at> anyone know how to get a dv cam working as webcam in ubuntu edgy?
[09:15] <midgetg0at> sony dcr-hc21
[09:15] <syzygyBSD> heh, should have guessed that, thought it would show other ugly stuff though
[09:15] <syzygyBSD> thanks
[09:15] <ferret_0567> The mountpoint is like /media/tc, yes
[09:15] <dimeotane> thx
[09:16] <tanascar> Can anybody tell me why I get a invalid module format when I try to do modprobe 8139too?
[09:16] <ferret_0567> Wherever you want the mountpoint to be
[09:16] <pbureau> pap3rw8,  do lshw -class network and look for driver= also check they if the device is not DISABLED or UNCLAIMED
[09:16] <dimeotane> ferret_0567: so I don't need to specify the location of the truecrypt file ?
[09:16] <likwidtek> trying to install sunbird on ubuntu 6.10 I am trying to create the menu item using "sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/sunbird.desktop" but it just hangs at the terminal with a blinking cursor
[09:16] <erf> hmm fluxbox started again
[09:16] <likwidtek> any idea why?
[09:16] <erf> do I have to edit a file
[09:16] <ferret_0567> You do, when you map the TrueCrypt volume under /dev/mapper/truecrypt*
[09:16] <Tominator> hi i've got a problem compiling cdemu: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/7545/ somebody gave me this link http://diveintomark.org/archives/2006/09/19/bad-fd-number , but "bash make" doesnt work either...
[09:16] <dimeotane> erf: dunno.. i use ubuntu
[09:17] <pap3rw8> lshw shows disabled
[09:17] <YoshiG3> Why won't it let me find a file on my desktop
[09:17] <dyrne> Tominator: is there a reason you couldnt grab the binary?
[09:17] <pap3rw8> how do i enable it?
[09:17] <carbm1> rsync -v --progress
[09:17] <YoshiG3> I navigated, in terminal, to my desktop- still will NOT let me copy a file..."cannot stat file not found etc etc etc"
[09:17] <pbureau> pap3rw8, ah, try ifconfig <card> up
[09:17] <Tominator> dyrne: what do you mean?
[09:18] <n2diy> ! Freevo
[09:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about freevo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:18] <pap3rw8> ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: device or resource busy.
[09:18] <Crescendo_> From a fresh install, I'm connecting to some servers (places>>connect to server) and when I open the resulting shortcut on the desktop, it just hangs there "connecting to server" - WTF?
[09:19] <likwidtek> trying to install sunbird on ubuntu 6.10 I am trying to create the menu item using "sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/sunbird.desktop" but it just hangs at the terminal with a blinking cursor - Any idea why?
[09:19] <YoshiG3> Why is it telling me that afile isn't there, although it really is?!?!!
[09:19] <root____1> ah its working
[09:19] <carbm1> Anybody know of a good IP scanner similar to Angry IP Scanner?
[09:19] <root____1> I did a startxfce
[09:19] <dimeotane> ferret_0567:  the truecrypt manual shows the -u flag as " useful when mounting a filesystem like FAT under a  non-admin
[09:19] <dimeotane>               user account."  I tried that but it didn't seem to help... Don't you think that's what should work to mount a file under a user?
[09:20] <root____1> and its up and running and it looks purdy on a freebsd 6.0 server box
[09:20] <root____1> thanks dimeotane
[09:20] <matt1234> can someone help me figure out why after i run a script, my command prompt is not where it normally is?
[09:20] <dimeotane> np
[09:20] <ProN00b> is there any solution to make gui programs as easy as with the .net stuff on linux ? (a gui designer with a ide)
[09:20] <dimeotane> I like xfce for use on 'lighter' systems
[09:20] <root____1> lets see if I can post a pic
[09:20] <VrilutZa> A have edition server
[09:20] <ferret_0567> That's different
[09:21] <ProN00b> carbm1, nmap is not similar, but some might say its better
[09:21] <ferret_0567> That's if you want to let TrueCrypt call the mount command for you with "-t auto"
[09:21] <likwidtek> anyone use sunbird?
[09:21] <ferret_0567> I don't let truecrypt mount stuff for me because I don't think it works
[09:22] <Crescendo_> carbm1, nmap
[09:22] <Crescendo_> !nmap
[09:22] <ubotu> nmap: The Network Mapper. In component main, is extra. Version 4.10-1 (edgy), package size 702 kB, installed size 2436 kB
[09:22] <VrilutZa> HOWTO Traffic Control per ip
[09:22] <signature16> It seems the Gnome menu bar has frozen...is there a way to fix that without restarting?
[09:22] <ferret_0567> killall gnome-panel in terminal
[09:23] <ferret_0567> Go to Ctrl+Alt+F1, login, and type that
[09:23] <pap3rw8> or do ctrl-alt-shift-F1 to kill gnome
[09:23] <carbm1> I have used nmap before... and yes it does give, sometimes in great detail, what you need. But IP Scanner is fast... I can my DHCP network with well over 200 clients and I can quickly click on them to remote desktop. Is there a similar program for Linux?
[09:23] <unop> ProN00b,  check out glade and GTK .. i believe you can also use .NET (mono) bindings for GTK
[09:23] <ferret_0567> That requires a logout
[09:23] <YoshiG3> Guys, this is really pissing me off. I'm tryign to copy a damn file, and it's not working.
[09:23] <tanascar> can someone help me with sudo modprobe 8139too causingan invalid module format?
[09:24] <YoshiG3> I'm doing everything correctly, I"m pretty sure
[09:24] <signature16> ferret_0567:  I cant access terminal without the panel.  is there a way to do it without ctrl alt fx
[09:24] <ProN00b> unop, i don't want to use anything .net, but rather something based on c or c++
[09:24] <unop> ProN00b,  then gtk and glade are exactly what you want
[09:24] <ProN00b> unop, well, glade just creates those design xml files which i can then use.... somehow *_*
[09:24] <ferret_0567> Yeah, kill GNOME and logout, Ctrl+Alt+Backspace or what the other person said
[09:24] <ferret_0567> Ctrl+Alt+Backspace will work
[09:25] <SpudDogg> Is there more than one source to get the w32codecs package?  The one I found via a search is freecontrib.org and it had been down for DAYS now.
[09:25] <pbureau> !w32codecs
[09:25] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[09:25] <ferret_0567> Ctrl+Alt+F1 is just like Terminal, except less colorful :)
[09:25] <unop> ProN00b,  really, if you spend a little time learning how to bind the glade in your c code, you'll be ok
[09:25] <unop> glade xml*

Then if the entry is still in /etc/fstab when i restart, and the usb hdd is still in, kubuntu refuses to boot! If i remove the usb hdd (with the entry in fstab still) then kubuntu boots. If i have no entry for that usb hdd in fstab (in other words i remove it from fstab after its automatically added) then kubuntu boots fine with the hdd

[09:36] <silox>  Hi, I have a problem with my laptop, a Dell Inspiron 8100. Both internal USB ports are broken so I have to use an external card. This works well but there is one problem, the internal USB ports gives this error "hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 1" and "hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 2" over and over again in the terminal. I cant disable USB in BIOS.. Any ideas?
[09:37] <wolferine> can I run a webserver and and FTP server and an SSH server in unbuntu?
[09:37] <ubuntus> is the ubuntu 7.04 apha 3 more stabble then ubuntu 6.10 ?
[09:37] <wolferine> or should I be looking after the .server iso?
[09:37] <shatrat> wolferine, of course
[09:37] <Chadarius> wolferine: Yeah you can run all of those
[09:37] <mwe> ubuntus: no it's not released yet
[09:37] <banditti> nothing alpha is ever more stable than release
[09:38] <wolferine> so the server just has al the packages installed already and is just run from command line?
[09:38] <mwe> ubuntus: it's going to be the next release in april
[09:38] <wolferine> so no desktop?
[09:38] <IdahoEv> first install help:  ubuntu booted off the CD with screen res 640x480.  On the first screen of the installer (select language), I cannot see the "OK" button, it is off the bottom.  I can't resize the window, scroll the window, move the window up far enough to see the button.  Nor can I change my screen resolution via the system control panel.  How do I proceed?
[09:38] <Chadarius> siodine: You can also check out this wiki http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:38] <heygab1> Idaho: Use the alternite install cd.
[09:38] <nofeardjb> what is a good harddrive/partition backup software?
[09:38] <heygab1> Your life will improve greatly.
[09:38] <rojo^> silox: maybe boot using a rescue disk and rm the defective entries from /dev?  I dunno, that might make things worse though.  0_o

[09:38] <nofeardjb> ty
[09:38] <tanascar> Does ubuntu have a restore process to fix a messed up install?
[09:38] <Erealz> ummm how do i find out my whats my windows partion.
[09:38] <nofeardjb> !backup > nofeardjb
[09:39] <nofeardjb> hmmm
[09:39] <IdahoEv> heygab1:  thanks.   Don't really want to have to download another 600mb cd, but oh well
[09:39] <nofeardjb> oh! there's the message lol
[09:39] <Chadarius> IdahoEv: Have you tried using xrandr in the command line to change your resolution?
[09:39] <LjL> Erealz: "sudo fdisk -l /dev/yourdrive"
[09:39] <heygab1> If you don't want to redownload, you can install the nvidia drivers on your live cd.
[09:39] <LjL> Erealz: that is a lowercase L
[09:39] <IdahoEv> Chadarius:  no, i'll look up how to do that
[09:40] <Chadarius> IdahoEv: You can open up a terminal and just type xrandr
[09:40] <Spec> How does one convert a midi file to a .wav file?
[09:40] <Chadarius> IdahoEv: will give you a list of valid resolutions for your system
[09:40] <LjL> !timidity | Spec, using a software MIDI synth
[09:40] <ubotu> spec, using a software midi synth: timidity: Software sound renderer (MIDI sequencer, MOD player). In component universe, is optional. Version 2.13.2-7.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 534 kB, installed size 1716 kB
[09:40] <IdahoEv> Chadarius: is it interactive, or do I need to know ...  ah thanks
[09:40] <Spec> i can use timidity to convert it?

[09:40] <Erealz> now
[09:40] <mareks> when compiling something, how do i set an environment var?
[09:41] <Erealz> how do  i mount that
[09:41] <Chadarius> IdahoEv: Then you can change resolution by typing "xrandr -s #" where the # is the resolution line number in the list it gave you before
[09:41] <dyrne> mareks: export BLAH=blah
[09:41] <LjL> Spec: "convert" is not the right word. MIDI is a format that encodes notes and information about notes -- WAV is just one PCM (digital audio) format. so it's more like rendering a 3D scene into a PNG picture than "converting"
[09:41] <IdahoEv> Chadarius:  xrandr gives 640x480 as my only option.
[09:41] <Spec> LjL: yeap
[09:41] <Coll1er> DCC SEND hjmsvhjmsvhjmsvhjmsvhjmsvhjmsvhjmsvhjmsvhjmsvhjmsv
[09:41] <mareks> dyrne: is that a temporary thing
[09:41] <mareks> dyrne: or does that go on the same line as ./configure ?
[09:41] <LjL> Spec: timidity is quite good, but it's only as good as the patch set (i.e. the instrument samples) that you use
[09:41] <Spec> it is more like rendering
[09:41] <LjL> !midi > spec    (spec, see the private message from Ubotu) | so see this
[09:42] <Chadarius> IdahoEv: Yeah I thought it might... the alternative CD is your best bet. Live CD is having trouble figuring out your video card setup
[09:42] <Spec> i understand how midis work a little
[09:42] <Spec> LjL: the instrument samples are on the soundcard, right?
[09:42] <dyrne> mareks: its a temp thing as long as the shell is open i think
[09:42] <AMD> guys how do i get beryl to use "xserver-xgl" and not AIGLX
[09:42] <LjL> Spec: if you browse the internet, there are probably better patches available than the ones that are in Universe (though surely the best ones will be commercial)
[09:42] <LjL> Spec: no
[09:42] <IdahoEv> Chadarius:  My LCD is connected via a KVM switch, which could be confusing it i suppose.   off to find the alt install disk.   thanks...
[09:42] <LjL> Spec: wait a second, i'll banforward the exploit victims, then i'll go on explaining

[09:47] <likwidtek> aside from mounting a SMB share... how do you "map a drive" in ubuntu?  instead of having to type smb://blah blah blah is there a way to alias it?

[09:47] <iamtheric> the talk protocol is for tty communications
[09:47] <hid3> fuck.. but I need this in real :-)
[09:47] <mwe> LjL: cleaning the ban list? ;)
[09:47] <iamtheric> likwidtek: just add the share to mount to a folder in fstab

Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[09:49] <dimeotane> !automatix
[09:49] <Erealz> im isnt ubuntu easy enough to install crap  anyways
[09:49] <Erealz> like i cant really see a use for it
[09:49] <Erealz> at all....
[09:49] <mwe> dimeotane: copycat
[09:50] <Akuma_> i just changed windows partitions to use ntfs-3g, and now gparted can't find them - is there a trick or do i have to revert to ntfs?
[09:50] <Potti> my only prob is getting wine installed = (
[09:50] <dimeotane> codec throw people off sometimes... cause it doesn't work out of the box.. so they want easy install scrips
[09:50] <dimeotane> mwe: I owe u a beer
[09:50] <mwe> Akuma_: gparted should see your partitions no matter how you mount them I think
[09:50] <mwe> dimeotane: ;)
[09:50] <phaedra> Potti, What's the prob?
[09:51] <Potti> i install wine  w/ synaptic
[09:51] <Potti> but the install file do not go where they should go or even pop up anywherer
[09:51] <crusoe_> How do I got about installing Azureus on my Ubuntu box using terminal?
[09:51] <mwe> Erealz: installing non free stuff requires a little work but it's quite easy
[09:52] <Akuma_> mwe: it gives me a warning for both hda1 and hda5 (win partitions), saying it cannot find the mount point - could that because of something else?
[09:52] <exwebjunkie> crusoe_: sudo apt-install Azureus
[09:52] <phaedra> Potti, No problem there.  Are you having trouble with configuration?
[09:52] <Potti> i guess that could be it
[09:52] <exwebjunkie> sudo aptitude install azureus even
[09:52] <phaedra> Potti, What do you get if you type wine at a console?
[09:52] <mwe> Akuma_: but it still sees the partitions, right?
[09:53] <Potti> Usage: wine PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS...]    Run the specified program
[09:53] <Potti>        wine --help                   Display this help and exit
[09:53] <Potti>        wine --version                Output version information and exit
[09:53] <Akuma_> mwe: yes, it does. it doesnt seem to see how much data is on it though
[09:53] <phaedra> Potti, Try this url > http://www.von-thadden.de/Joachim/WineTools/
[09:54] <mwe> Akuma_: I don't think it knows about ntfs-3g. I think you can change the size of the partitions anyway.
[09:54] <brombomb> My network has been acting finicky, Is there anything else I cna use besiades ifconfig, ifdown, ifup?
[09:54] <phaedra> Potti, Wine is installed okay.  Just configure it now.
[09:54] <mwe> I need to ignore foo sets/removes ban on bar
[09:54] <Lynoure> hmm
[09:55] <LjL> Sorry for the inconvenience and the spam.
[09:55] <Akuma_> mwe: thanks. although i think i know the answer: is it safe?
[09:55] <mwe> Akuma_: it *should* be. the rule of thumb is to backup when messing with partitions, though.
[09:56] <AMD> LjL you better be :D
[09:56] <Akuma_>  mwe: yeah i backed up. it would really suck to have to reinstall though. thanks a lot

[10:13] <Flamekebab> Another quick question - if I want to write a tiny bashscript to convert MP3 files to Ogg with a hardcoded quality, shouldn't it require but a single line of code?
[10:13] <Chadarius> interesting
[10:13] <Flamekebab> something like mp32ogg --quality=5 *files*
[10:13] <drx> (it says cdrom_pc_instr: The drive appears confused (ireason=0x01) and the bios changes the name of my DVD drives to some generic ATAPI CD
[10:13] <Chadarius> drx: as long as the drive can be seen with the install CD you should still be able to do it
[10:14] <sh4rm4> Flamekebab, use perl
[10:14] <Flamekebab> sh4rm4, I don't speak perl though..
[10:14] <drx> Chadarius, I seem to be able to see ONE drive with the LiveCD booted, but both are a problem.  I can switch the hdd boot order.
[10:14] <Chadarius> drx: does the drive still remain as hd0,0 when you boot from CD?
[10:14] <bruenig> Flamekebab, that will work
[10:15] <bruenig> Flamekebab, you could just alias that though
[10:15] <Flamekebab> bruenig, I'm just not sure how to get my nautilus script to accept it
[10:15] <khronus> lo all
[10:15] <Chadarius> drx: ah yeah... so this might not all be a grub issue
[10:15] <bruenig> Flamekebab, oh for nautilus, not sure on nautilus scripts
[10:15] <s|g> re
[10:16] <khronus> just installing for first time and am selecting mount points, my system is split with a root partition, a swap partition and 'the rest' what mount point do i give 'the rest'
[10:16] <khronus> ?
[10:16] <s|g> someone know a ubuntu drupal theme download url ?
[10:16] <kane77> some disk usage statistics? (i'm on dapper and I have seen something in edgy, I'm not sure what it was...)
[10:16] <Flamekebab> bruenig, as far as I'm aware nautilus scripts work basically like bash scripts
[10:16] <drx> Chadarius, I'm not sure.  The thing is, that in Enhanced mode the bios shows all 4 drives (2 SATA HDD and 2 DVDRW PATA) but Live CD won't boot
[10:16] <Anders> Hi Experts. Can anyone help me - how do I log on to Ubunt as a root user? I need to add some commands to a script in order for my wireless card to work with kernel 2.6.17-11
[10:16] <bruenig> I use xfce therefore thunar, so I don't know
[10:16] <dacks> Anders, type 'sudo su' in a console
[10:16] <kane77> Anders, you either use sudo in front of the command
[10:16] <drx> Chadarius, if I switch into compatibility mode (which is what I recall doing to install Linux & Vista) I seem to lose the ability to boot from the Live CD
[10:17] <bruenig> !sudo | Anders
[10:17] <ubotu> Anders: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:17] <Flamekebab> bruenig, fair enough, thanks anyway
[10:17] <kane77> or you use sudo passwd to set password...
[10:17] <dyrne> Anders: sudo command  or sudo -i   or sudo -s
[10:17] <khronus> just installing for first time and am selecting mount points, my system is split with a root partition, a swap partition and 'the rest' what mount point do i give 'the rest'?
[10:17] <Flamekebab> I've managed to get hold of an audio converter script, it's just that it's needlessly complex
[10:17] <Chadarius> drx: hmmm interesting
[10:17] <bruenig> khronus, something like /media/whatever
[10:17] <Flamekebab> I don't need to convert to any format under the sun
[10:17] <Anders> Ok, so I can not use the text editor in Ubunt to add the lines?
[10:17] <bruenig> khronus, or any place really, it doesn't matter
[10:17] <khronus> oh right, it gives mne a few options bruenig,
[10:17] <Flamekebab> I just want to be able to right-click on a load of MP3s and have them converted to Q5 Oggs
[10:18] <khronus> such as /var /tmp /boot
[10:18] <khronus> but this is the whoile of the system seems weird calling it that
[10:18] <dyrne> Anders: sudo nano /etc/file.txt
[10:18] <Crescendo_> From a fresh install, I'm connecting to some servers (places>>connect to server) and when I open the resulting shortcut on the desktop, it just hangs there "connecting to server" - WTF?
[10:18] <bruenig> khronus, this rest of stuff is for personal files right?
[10:18] <phaedra> khronus, What type of filesystem is 'the rest'?
[10:19] <Anders> Great - thanks. How to I get Ubuntu to load a script during boot?
[10:19] <phaedra> khronus, /home might be good...
[10:19] <drx> my recollection is that I needed compatbility mode with SATA+PATA in order to operate, so I've put that back.  I can see the GRUB menu if I choose boot from 1st HDD from the Live CD menu, but choosing either Linux or Windows results in "Error 21:  Selected disk does not exist"
[10:19] <greywolf777> i ocasionaly get a APIC err when booting but not all the time i was wodering why
[10:19] <khronus> i select ext, noi not just personal stuff erm my partitions so far are root (3gb) swap (1gb) and then all of the rest of the filesystem (34gb )
[10:19] <kleinweby> hello, i have a littel problem with lilo. i wan't do added the vga boot parameter, if I added vga=0x035c to append lilo says thats don't allowed. if I add vga=0x035c as an normal option lilo says at the boot: unkown vga mode or so. can any body help me?
[10:19] <khronus> ext3 soz
[10:19] <drx> and Error 13:  Inavlid or unsupported executable format in the case of Vista
[10:20] <|Z_E_R_O|> nobody help me in ubuntu-it, i'm trying to install ubuntu from cd but I got I/O erorr, I have e I/O card with 2 hdd attached. what can i do?
[10:20] <bruenig> khronus, root has everything, are you just using this partition for storage of stuff or do you want it to have system files on it
[10:20] <Chadarius> drx: It sounds like its a bios issue and not a grub one, although once we fix your bios issue we might have to change some grub entries
[10:20] <fbarc> how do I run a chkdsk on an fat32 drive???
[10:20] <drx> that's cool with me, we can even hose Vista (it's a fresh install) if we need to
[10:20] <khronus> bruenig no idea, its for a friend who is non tech savvy at all so it just needs to be nice and basic
[10:20] <grimboy> What's that program that shows information about hardware?
[10:20] <drx> I just can't afford to lose Linux
[10:20] <Chadarius> drx: what bios do you have? Perhaps there is already a wiki or forum post on this that we can find together
[10:20] <bruenig> khronus, having it mount at /home would be good then
[10:21] <khronus> ok ty !
[10:21] <khronus> :)
[10:21] <kane77> grimboy, lshw
[10:21] <hdx> hello, maybe someone know any progam, to remove some stuff from boot
[10:21] <grimboy> kane77, Ah yes, thanks.
[10:22] <drx> I think I'm past the BIOS problem, I reset everything back the way I remembered it and it looks like the Live CD is booting now (it didn't on 3 prior attempts but I *may* have changed a setting
[10:22] <kane77> grimboy, I believe in kde there's some graphic frontend to it...
[10:22] <|Z_E_R_O|> nobody can help me?
[10:22] <Chadarius> drx: Awesome! So now we just need to figure out what the right drive pointers should be in Grub
[10:22] <grimboy> Them and their fancy-pants kde.
[10:23] <kane77> yeah
[10:23] <fbarc> Can someone tell me how to chkdsk a fat32 partition from ubuntu?
[10:23] <Anders> Thanks for your help - take care
[10:23] <pbureau> grimboy, look under system - admin you will find hardware soemthing (dont ask I use gnome easier :))
[10:23] <finn> !media
[10:23] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[10:23] <drx> Ok, the only thing now is that I can't see Drive 2 (Vista) inside GPARTED.
[10:24] <grimboy> pbureau, Uh, I use gnome.
[10:24] <finn> is there some place where I can read about how the folder /media works with the mounts etc. ?
[10:24] <Chadarius> drx: hrm weird
[10:24] <juan2> hello
[10:24] <drx> it could be that drive 2 isn't in the bios now, let me check...
[10:24] <pbureau> grimboy, then system - admin - device manager
[10:25] <grimboy> Oh, duh
[10:25] <grimboy> I mean thanks.

[10:25] <Frost^-> Can anyone tell me where can I find ubuntu packages' control files?
[10:26] <dyrne> finn: sudo gedit /etc/fstab  or google for udev tutorial
[10:26] <drx> nope, only drive 1, not drive 2 and if I switch from compatible mode to enhanced mode, I can't boot the Live CD
[10:26] <Potti> need help "Could not open the file /home/pottie/Desktop/cedega_timedemo_installer using the Western (ISO-8859-1) character coding."
[10:26] <finn> thanks dyrne
[10:26] <kane77> Frost^-, what control files?
[10:26] <LjL> Frost^-: after they've been installed, or in the .deb itself?
[10:26] <Frost^-> I want to rebuild a certain package.
[10:26] <drx> I'm trying compatible mode + PATA only
[10:26] <flog22> bonsoir
[10:27] <Chadarius> drx: man there is something whacky happening there. OK
[10:27] <drx> nope, that kills my SATA drives
[10:27] <Frost^-> Essentially, upgrade it to a newer version.
[10:27] <LjL> Frost^-, the hacky way is "ar x package.deb", then "tar xf control.tar.gz"
[10:27] <drx> trying compatible + SATA only
[10:27] <|Z_E_R_O|> What can i do if installing ubuntu i receive I/O error?
[10:27] <LjL> |Z_E_R_O|: try booting with noapic or acpi=off
[10:27] <drx> that kills my DVD drives
[10:28] <Frost^-> LjL, I see.
[10:28] <LjL> |Z_E_R_O|: also, check that the CD is ok
[10:28] <|Z_E_R_O|> cd is ok
[10:28] <LjL> !verify > |Z_E_R_O|    (|Z_E_R_O|, see the private message from Ubotu)
[10:28] <Potti> Hello
[10:28] <|Z_E_R_O|> the problem is the i/o card
[10:28] <Potti> i need some help
[10:28] <dyrne> |Z_E_R_O|: rule of thumb when burning iso is to use slowest speed you can and verifiy md5sum
[10:28] <drx> What now
[10:28] <Potti> "Could not open the file /home/pottie/Desktop/cedega_timedemo_installer using the Western (ISO-8859-1) character coding." what do i have to do?
[10:28] <Chadarius> drx: There is either a BIOS setting or perhaps the way your drives are wired that is causing this
[10:29] <|Z_E_R_O|> to the i/o card are connected 2 hdd
[10:29] <kleinweby> or if i will use grub on my macbook i get The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly. :(
[10:29] <LjL> |Z_E_R_O|, i'd still try the noapic and noacpi
[10:30] <|Z_E_R_O|> ok i'm going to try thanks
[10:30] <drx> trying Enhanced mode SATA+PATA
[10:30] <LjL> !pm | hdx
[10:30] <ubotu> hdx: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first.
[10:31] <LjL> hdx, there is not very much that you can turn off during boot, which will give an appreciable speed increase, short of removing X
[10:31] <flocks> please can you telle me where can I find a list of all PCMCIA card which are supported by linux kernel ?
[10:31] <LjL> hdx: what i suggest (if you're on Edgy) is that you boot with the "profile" kernel option *once* (and only once)
[10:31] <hdx> tnx
[10:32] <darkbaneaway> Does anyone know of a text-editor which supports multi-gig text files that works well with ubuntu?
[10:32] <drx> so here's the thing, when I use this mode, I can see all the drives but the Live CD freezes at "Mounting root file system" -- can we fix this without Live CD?
[10:32] <faLUCE>  Hi. i have compiled a  simple kernel module and generated the .o file. now, how can I insert it? kernel version is 2.6.17-10-generic
[10:32] <AlexC_> darkbaneaway: multi-gig? as in 5gb file size? :S
[10:32] <Potti> im guessing there is no help for me
[10:32] <Potti> = /
[10:33] <Chadarius> drx: Yes and No... if you can figure out the order of the ive CD
[10:33] <AlexC_> Potti: you've waited 4 mins. You can not say "There is no hope" after 4 mins!
[10:33] <drx> Chadarius, the order?
[10:33] <darkbane> AlexC_ 2 gigs right now, but i could have to deal with larger ones eventually
[10:33] <Potti> i had no idea was being timed
[10:33] <drx> Chadarius, I printed out the gparted screens before upgrading Vista
[10:33] <Chadarius> drx: then we can go in and use the Live CD to fix grub and boot with grub in that mode
[10:34] <AlexC_> Potti: you're not. I simply have timestamps enabled in my IRC client - I saw the time from when you asked for help, then when you started moaning - and worked it out as 4 mins =)
[10:34] <drx> Chadarius, I can't boot from the Live CD
[10:34] <padziak> elo
[10:34] <AlexC_> darkbane: I'm not sure really, never had to open a text-file that big before!
[10:34] <drx> Chadarius, unless I select a BIOS mode that disables drive 2
[10:34] <AlexC_> darkbane: what does open-office or gedit do when you open it?
[10:34] <Chadarius> drx: OK cool... you can make it so you can boot to the CD and edit your menu.lst file though right?
[10:34] <Potti> if your not gonna be any help. id suggest you keep to your self k thnx bye
[10:35] <BigMac> can someone give me a link to a guide with visuals on setting up evolution for gmail? I had one before but lost the link and can't find it on google anymore. or any guide that would tell me who to set up evolution specific for gmail would be great
[10:35] <drx> Chadarius, probably, Oh and I also have a Win32X flash drive that boots Linux if that helps, but it's not ubuntu and theres no GUI
[10:35] <Chadarius> drx: well we don't really need a gui either so however you want to boot so we can edit the menu.lst file is cool with me
[10:36] <darkbane> AlexC_ gedit said "this file is too large" and openoffice just sits there trying to open it
[10:36] <wheels3572> how do I do a search in the repos with a partial spelling of a package?

[10:37] <drx> Chadarius, can you boot from flash drive?
[10:37] <soundman89> how so i go about resetting the root password
[10:37] <AlexC_> darkbane: well a 2GB file _will_ take a long time to open, if you leave open-office does it load it?
[10:37] <Chadarius> drx: yes I have in the past
[10:37] <AlexC_> darkbane: 2gb.... that's mad, can you not split it up at all? =D
[10:37] <eetfunk> how do i specify the default group with adduser under Ubuntu?  the -g switch doesnt work... it works with other distros.
[10:37] <drx> Chadarius, bios setting?
[10:37] <gu014> how can i check to see if my sound card is muted from the command line?
[10:38] <ice63> vista RIGHT!
[10:38] <darkbane> AlexC_ nope ^_^ it's an inbox file from a mail server that's corrupted
[10:38] <Chadarius> drx: yeesh depends on your bios. On My Dell laptop I have a boot up menu I can use to choose on the fly
[10:38] <pbureau> soundman89, use gnome ?

[10:40] <guerrillawon> Does anyone want to help me try to restore my flash sound by any chance? firefox32 on a 64 bit system flash 9
[10:40] <david_> yes
[10:40] <guerrillawon> My audio stopped working I think maybe a program conflict all signs leading to gstreamer.

[10:41] <david_> don't know let me check
[10:42] <AlexC_> Shaffox: how is that Ubuntu related?
[10:42] <wheels3572> Is there a different version of X-Chat other then Gnome X-chat cuz the one I had before was a bit more colorful and not so black and white
[10:42] <bard> i have installed broadcom-wl-<IP_ADDRESS> firmware but still do i get [  299.468000]  bcm43xx: YOUR FIRMWARE IS TOO OLD. Firmware from binary drivers older than version 4.x is unsupported. You must upgrade your firmware files.
[10:42] <Bassetts> hey, i have an ati card and I am so fed up with it, so what is a devent nvidia card that is well support in ubuntu?
[10:42] <gdb> wheels3572: there is xchat and xchat-gnome, you want xchat
[10:42] <AlexC_> Shaffox: this is _not_ a drop-in-and-chat channel to ask random questions. For offtopic disccusion go in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:42] <darkbane> AlexC_ any ideas?
[10:42] <guerrillawon> I run firefox 32 on my 64 bit architecture.  I've tried everything on the forums, and I believe gstreamer may be the reason.
[10:42] <Shaffox> AlexC_: wrong tab, sorry, don't kill me
[10:42] <bard> what do i need to do to get bcm43xx to see that its not older then 4.x
[10:42] <AlexC_> Shaffox: I'll try not to :P
[10:43] <darkbane> AlexC_ open office has been opening the file for 10 minutes or so, and still nothing.
[10:43] <AlexC_> darkbane: it is a 2gb file :P
[10:43] <wheels3572> gdb: Yes i want xchat itself but it installed xchat-gnome on me grrrrrrrr
[10:43] <Chadarius> Bassetts: I have a 6100 a 7800 and a 5700 nvidia all running in Ubuntu. Its all using the same drive. I haven't had any issues with any of them
[10:43] <david_> it says not found
[10:43] <AlexC_> darkbane: how about opening it with nano ?
[10:43] <drx> Chadarius, my printout indicates that Linux is /dev/sdb

[10:43] <Bassetts> thanks Chadarius
[10:43] <gdb> wheels3572: Yes, you can apt-get install xchat to get the "original" -- personally, I much prefer xchat-gnome.
[10:43] <ice63> hmm
[10:43] <darkbane> AlexC_ hahahaha
