[00:00] <eXlin> _steve_ yea, i remember that tested once on friend laptop one really simple program what tooked snapshots from webcam
[00:00] <Raylz> ActionParsnip: does the disk resizer work too?
[00:00] <admin_masu3701> LittlLambda: i see
[00:00] <eXlin> it might been even in default setup of 8.04
[00:00] <psyferre> hey folks, I hope there's someone out there that can hit me with a cluebat on this one.  I'm trying to connect to a ms sql database on ubuntu hardy through python.  Every time I do anything that has to do with compiling a module however I get: mssqldbmodule.c:1194: error: expected â;â before âreturnâ       error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
[00:00] <LittleLambda> Raylz: Im on my macbook, and the wifi worked out of the book with 8.10
[00:00] <psyferre> i ran apt-get upgrade and got a bunch of upgrades, including one to gcc, but it hasn't changed anything.    I currently cannot log into this user with SSH
[00:01] <trontonic> psyferre: if you do a "gvim mysqldbmodule.c +1194", is there a missing ";" on the line above?
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> _steve_: you are just inexperienced which doesnt make you stupid
[00:01] <admin_masu3701> Littlambda: so to be root i have to say sudo su?
[00:01] <Raylz> ActionParsnip: i try to get him take a look at linux
[00:01] <_steve_> well, that was what I meant
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> admin_masu3701: use sudo -i
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> _steve_: you'll learn
[00:01] <marshall> for some reason, intrepid shows all my wireless networks and wired connections two or three times (sometimes) in the network manager dropdown. I'm on a thinkpad T61p and I get disconnected frequently, does anybody know why this might be happening?
[00:01] <sfears> ok.. scan completed
[00:02] <admin_masu3701> ActionParsnip: ok
[00:02] <LittleLambda> admin_masu3701: That will give you a root prompt, but I have only used ubuntu for a day or so. ActionParsnip may well be right with sudo -i
[00:02] <sfears> keep in mind trontonic i have two wireless cards.. each with it's own issue
[00:02] <_steve_> it's like a saying ... I want patience - and I want it RIGHT NOW
[00:02] <_steve_> loll
[00:02] <wallabee> anyone know how to delete a stubbor file from trash? I can delete other files but not this folder.  When i try and delete manually i get "error while deleting" and my owner permissions for the file are set to create and delete.
[00:02] <imchrislabeard> hey guys im trying to run ubuntu on vpc 7 but i can't get it to work anyone done this before
[00:02] <eXlin> _steve_ dont worry. beside there isnt stupid questions, only stypid... how it goed. well anyway. all of us been noobs at start
[00:02] <Raylz> LittleLambda: do you have one of the new macbooks?
[00:02] <LittleLambda> ubuntu: sorry. back to you
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> LittleLambda: its not really needed just put sudo at the start of all commands, ten you'll never need it
[00:02] <LittleLambda> ubunut: what was the problem
[00:02] <perillux> hello, suspend and hibernate did not work for me at first.  I then installed uswsusp, and it now works beautifully if I run the commands s2both or s2disk.  How can I make this ubuntu's default method of suspending/hibernating.
[00:02] <noelferreira> how can i reduce the volume of my system events (gaim, mail alerrts, ...) and increase the volume of mplayer streaming?
[00:02] <trontonic> sfears: well, the first step is to make them both show up with "ifconfig", then both of them with "iwconfig", then both list networks with "sudo iwlist DEVICE scanning"
[00:03] <LittleLambda> raylz: No, I have one of the first issue white ones, brought 2006.
[00:03] <trontonic> sfears: do they both show up with "ifconfig"?
[00:03] <jlilly> is it possible to run a remote command via ssh like: ssh myserver "my_command"   and keep the connection open?
[00:03] <sfears> they all show up in ifconfig
[00:03] <trontonic> sfears: do they show up with "iwconfig"?
[00:03] <psyferre> trontonic:  installing vim real quick... using nano the file appears to be empty
[00:03] <mgolisch> is there any tool that allows setting a new desktop background in gnome?
[00:03] <sfears> iwconfig they show up.. but only one shows my wireless network
[00:03] <_steve_> I see in Emesene, in preferences, Connection
[00:03] <LittleLambda> ubuntu: is the installer complaining about not being able to resize it or something?
[00:03] <perillux> mgolisch: yes there is
[00:03] <_steve_> is there something to learn there?
[00:04] <ActionParsnip> jlilly: so when you connect a command is automatically executed?
[00:04] <trontonic> psyferre: you could use "gedit" too and just jump to the right line. If the file is empty, you might have forgot to use the path to the file as well. Like "my/source/bla&bla/somefile.c"
[00:04] <auxpat> i just upgraded to 8.10 on my ibm t42, and now my graphics settings are all bad. do i need to get a new ati driver or something?
[00:04] <sfears> my internal card shows "network" as the essid the other one shows not associated
[00:04] <perillux> mgolisch: I think there are programs that will do it too.  But for now, if you want, I have a script that will do it
[00:04] <sfears> my internal card shows "network" as the essid the other one shows not associated trontonic
[00:04] <jlilly> ActionParsnip: yes. Assuming that I can't touch things like bashrc and such.
[00:04] <imchrislabeard> any body ran ubuntu on a virtual pc
[00:04] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: a few times
[00:04] <diskin> if my laptop periodically freezes (halts), but nothing can be found in logfiles - it just stops responding, with all information on screen, etc - can it be a software problem (e.g., ATI driver), or it is only hardware problem?
[00:04] <_steve_> HTTP, debug in console, and binary codes in debug?
[00:04] <felix-da-catz> I just reloaded Ubuntu 8.10 from scratch.  I backed up my .evolution directory.  Do I just replace the entire directory or do I just move the mail in there?
[00:04] <trontonic> sfears: okay, so both show up in iwconfig, that's at least one good thing. :)
[00:04] <noelferreira> how can i decrease the volume of my system events (gaim, mail alerrts, ...) and increase the volume of mplayer streaming?
[00:04] <mgolisch> iam in search for a cmdline tool that would allow me to change the desktop background , so i could use it togeher with some shellscript magic to have random automaticaly changing wallpapers
[00:05] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: im doing it on a mac and i have ubuntu 8.10 on a dvd and when i select install ubuntu from the menu it runs all this stuff and then just stops
[00:05] <trontonic> sfears: I have experiened that a bad driver/kernel combination made the card show up but not actually work, though
[00:05] <perillux> mgolisch: I know the command you need, hang on, let me find it
[00:05] <sfears> when i click on knetwork manager it used to show available wireless networks.. now it's kind of greyed out and doesn't list the available networks
[00:05] <trontonic> sfears: so.. "sudo iwlist DEVICE scanning" works for all but one of the cards?
[00:05] <eXlin> _steve_ i recordmend you to check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam
[00:05] <_steve_> ok
[00:06] <sfears> DEVICE    Interface doesn't support scanning.
[00:06] <eXlin> in case you get it working by those advices then its about your skype
[00:06] <sfears> i have to go.. will return
[00:06] <trontonic> sfears: it's easier to keep networkmanager out of the loop for now. Actually, networkmanager meddles in the background, so it's best to shut it down with "sudo /etc/init.d/networkmanager stop"
[00:06] <eXlin> and then it just to point on your device in skype
[00:06] <trontonic> sfears: DEVICE was just an example. Use "wlan0" or "ath0" or what it is called :)
[00:06] <yosyp> i want to run i810 driver with 3d acceleration; i put the default depth to 16 bit

[00:06] <MaT-dg> noelferreira, with gaim u mean pidgin right?
[00:06] <perillux> mgolisch: are you there?
[00:07] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: when does it stop?
[00:07] <xim_> how can i make ubuntu line my icons up on the desktop instead of them all being random sizes and disorganized?
[00:07] <ActionParsnip> jlilly: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/help-running-program-to-ssh-623648/
[00:07] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: it doens't actually ever get into the splash screen
[00:07] <trontonic> yosyp: try removing the "tracker" application as well if you experience lag. Also, I think perhaps there are some tweaks you can add to xorg.conf to make it go faster
[00:07] <scopecreep> im having wifi speed issues, using an iwl4965 on a g network. any suggestions?
[00:07] <noelferreira> MaT-dg, anything in the system
[00:07] <mgolisch> perillux: yeah
[00:07] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: try disabling acpi and dma on the first boot
[00:07] <Sate_GameBoy> hi
[00:07] <jaakkome> Is there still a lot of trouble with nvidia and 8.10?
[00:07] <yosyp> trontonic, tracker application?
[00:07]  * elektrikz cya:P
[00:07] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: how do i do that
[00:07] <Rods_Tiger> I want to show ubuntu to my students, but I've downloaded a 8.10 image and took the cd in to try it on their student machines and it doesn't work. It just (eventually) shows a black screen with a mouse, nothing else, no response.
[00:07] <perillux> mgolisch: ok, the command you will need is gconftool
[00:07] <wallabee> i need to delete a file from trash that is a permanent fixture can anyone offer any advice
[00:08] <trontonic> yosyp: yes. Remove it
[00:08] <MaT-dg> noelferreira, in pidgin you can change volume here -> tools > preferences > sounds
[00:08] <yosyp> trontonic, i dont have gnome at all . . .
[00:08] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: are you running the desktop or alternative cd?
[00:08] <trontonic> yosyp: unless you need quick search for files in exchange for a slow computer
[00:08] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: desktop
[00:08] <mgolisch> perillux: will try that
[00:08] <mgolisch> :)
[00:08] <Sate_GameBoy> How could I use eclipseme
[00:08] <nikitis> Off topic question: Anyone know if you can get a replacement voter registration card on election day?
[00:08] <trontonic> yosyp: then check if strigi is running
[00:08] <Sate_GameBoy> under ubuntu
[00:08] <wallabee> i cant remove it that is the problem
[00:08] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[00:08] <Numer0bis> is it possible to install ubuntu and kubuntu via wubi ? so I could choose from the windows bootloader if i'd like to boot, xp, ubuntu or kubuntu ?
[00:09] <yosyp> trontonic, ps ax | grep strigi returns nothing, im guessing now
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> !trash | walla
[00:09] <trontonic> yosyp: what does glxgears show now?
[00:09] <yosyp> not*
[00:09] <Sate_GameBoy> ?
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> !trash | wallabee
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> wallabee: try rm'ing the files manually
[00:09] <cougar_> hi, does anyone know how to get an emu 1212m working?
[00:09] <yosyp> trontonic, 2138 frames in 5.0 seconds = 426.585 FPS
[00:09] <trontonic> yosyp: you can also install and run "htop" to get an excellent overview of which processes might take your resources
[00:09] <jaakkome> nikitis: I assume you're talking about the Finnish municipality elections - in that case you don't need the card anymore, just your id if enough!
[00:10] <nikitis> jaakkome, the USA elections
[00:10] <noelferreira> MaT-dg, ok i saw thanks. but i was more looking for a way in genereal to decrease all system's events. The one in particular is also thunderbird new mail alert notification sound

[00:10] <trontonic> yosyp: that's still a bit low for 3D, but it doesn't sound completely wrong. Which graphics card do you have?

[00:11] <tsrk> Question about Ubuntu security: By default configuration, is there any damage a non-administrative account can do to the system?
[00:11] <tsrk> (if they try to do damage)
[00:11] <Maligne> Why do I get piss poor performance in Ubuntu w/ the NVIDIA drivers? I have a 6600 GT.
[00:12] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: that didn't fix it
[00:12] <trontonic> yosyp: a search for "82845G ubuntu" gives many interesting results
[00:12] <DigitalFiz> ok so i have 2 mpegs i used tovid to convert how do i get them on a dual layer disk now?
[00:12] <Zach1> hi I need help
[00:12] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: it says abunch of garbage about like ?text_poke_early+0x52/0x70 etc..
[00:12] <Zach1> my restricted drivers wont install
[00:12] <Rods_Tiger> what other livecds should I show my students, that actually work on their machines?
[00:12] <Zach1> it hangs at 0%
[00:12] <_steve_> don't understand
[00:12] <xim_> how can i make ubuntu line my icons up on the desktop instead of them all being random sizes and disorganized?
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> tsrk: only to your own files and anything owned by you. short answer is no which is why you shouldnt log on as root as many idiots do for daily tasks. If you get affected by malware / virii, this will also limit the damage they can inflict
[00:13] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, did you try OpenGEU? :B
[00:13] <_steve_> it is 1:15 am here, so I will go to sleep
[00:13] <Rods_Tiger> never heard of it
[00:13] <diskin> if my laptop periodically freezes (halts), but nothing can be found in logfiles - it just stops responding, with all information on screen, etc - can it be a software problem (e.g., ATI driver), or it is only hardware problem?
[00:13] <_steve_> but I am getting upset
[00:13] <trontonic> yosyp: it seems like it's a possibility that you're out of memory.  I'll get you a screenshot.
[00:13] <yosyp> trontonic, i have no resolution issues; the previous drivers sucked, the latest one works
[00:13] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, it will definitely win them over in the looks department.
[00:13] <qwstar> i'm getting only USB 1.1, the ehci module is not loading!
[00:13] <Rods_Tiger> it's chinese
[00:13] <psyferre> trontonic: thanks for taking an interest :)  I don't really see anything wrong syntax wise with the code in mssqldbmodule.c but here's a pastebin of some of the error text... maybe it will make more sense to you than it did to me if you have a moment to take a look? http://rafb.net/p/uef5v298.html
[00:13] <Rods_Tiger> that's no good
[00:13] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, what is?
[00:13] <yosyp> trontonic, dont think so, i have 512 or 1gb ram
[00:13] <tsrk> ActionParsnip, I'm more concerned about creating accounts for other people that may not be completely trustworthy
[00:13] <perillux> mgolisch: are you still there?
[00:13] <Zach1> can someone help me please?
[00:13] <Rods_Tiger> "OpenGEU? :B"
[00:14] <yosyp> trontonic, how do i check again? :P
[00:14] <Zach1> my restricted drivers for my ATI video card wont enable
[00:14] <Zach1> on intrepid ibex
[00:14] <trontonic> yosyp: "htop" is great for checking that
[00:14] <Zach1> it hangs at 0%
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: you need to edit the boot option for the kernel with Press the F6 key to select Other Options. Then add noacpi dma=no
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: its all there
[00:14] <Rods_Tiger> I put "OpenGEU? :B" into google and it's chinese
[00:14] <eXlin> _steve_ install luvcview and type "luvcview" in terminal

[00:14] <simon__> HI! anybody know where i can find decent info on how make audio on ubuntu???
[00:14] <eXlin> tell me what was output after that

[00:14] <ActionParsnip> tsrk: the default user is a lowly user, they are not a member of admin by defaulty and a sudoer or root must add them to give them sudo ability
[00:15] <newton> hello
[00:15] <trontonic> Zach1: checked this one? http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Main_Page
[00:15] <yosyp> trontonic, and current xchat, eterm and htop are the top 3 memory users :P
[00:15] <Maligne> Why do I get piss poor performance in Ubuntu w/ the NVIDIA drivers? I have a 6600 GT.
[00:15] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: i pasted that from the site i gave you but anyway...
[00:15] <Rods_Tiger> so this will work, where ubuntu 8.10 doesn't? Excellent - I'll try it. Thanks
[00:15] <trontonic> yosyp: htop will give the answer to how much memory you have and how much you use
[00:15] <tsrk> ActionParsnip, I know that, but I mean are there any important files or directories that a non-administrative user can edit and can cause problems?
[00:15] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, I dunno about all that. It's actually based on Ubuntu 8.04.1, atm.
[00:15] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: yeah well i can't press f4 im on a mac
[00:15] <newton> I just upgraded my ram to 4 gb, how do i get ubuntu to utilize all of it?
[00:15] <obf213> ahh system beep!!. how do i disable!
[00:16] <Maligne> newton, 64-bit or a pae enabled kernel methinks.
[00:16] <tsrk> newton, install 64-bit
[00:16] <yosyp> trontonic, oh, thatś right! 311/1002 physical, while 38/956 swap
[00:16] <Maligne> tsrk, don't forget about that pae enabled kernel thingy.
[00:16] <Rods_Tiger> That's a bit of a risk then. 8.10 doesn't work on their student machines.
[00:16] <skaoz> hi
[00:16] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: of course you can , the keyboard is captured
[00:16] <skaoz> hi
[00:16] <skaoz> hi
[00:16] <skaoz> hi
[00:16] <tsrk> Maligne, ok, I don't know what that is though :P
[00:16] <FloodBot1> skaoz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:16] <_steve_> what is the name of the thing I need to install?  lucv ... ?
[00:16] <ActionParsnip> tsrk: autostart stuffs will make issues for the individual but can be cleared up with another users account
[00:16] <trontonic> psyferre: are you installing an Ubuntu package? Where does the source come from?
[00:16] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: it won't let me it keeps bringing up the dashboard
[00:16] <tsrk> ActionParsnip, ok, thanks
[00:16] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, worth a shot. very beautiful. just try the live cd. :P
[00:17] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, it's a mix between gnome and E17, used to be called Geubuntu (gnome enlightenment ubuntu)
[00:17] <Rods_Tiger> ok. I don't really care what it looks like, just as long as I don't get a repeat of last time - everyone tried the cd and nothing worked
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> imchrislabeard: if its a virtual system you boot to the host OS
[00:17] <newton> Maligne, tsrk my video card wont support 64 bit linux, can it run in 32 bit linux?
[00:17] <trontonic> psyferre: ah, I know, try installing "libmysql++-dev". If that doesn't work, install all packages with "mysql" and "dev" in the name
[00:17] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, oh.. hm. Have you tried Mandriva One?
[00:18] <Rods_Tiger> no - that's a good thing to do
[00:18] <Maligne> newton, why won't it support 64-bit linux?
[00:18] <complexity_> Firefox menus and it is really laggy with a fresh home directory in fluxbox or if I just run x with nothing but firefox
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> tsrk: its one reason linux is more secure than microsofts systems with very little effort, obv windows can be screwed down but it takes more effort
[00:18] <skaoz> fack
[00:18] <complexity_> but it seems fine in gnome desktop .. wtf ?
[00:18] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, yes. might wanna try 2008.1, though. 2009.0 is kinda "out there" atm.
[00:18] <skaoz> putos maricones
[00:18] <Maligne> Rods_Tiger, try it, worked fine. but i like kde 4.1. >.>
[00:18] <tsrk> ActionParsnip, yeah, that's one of the main reasons i switch to it
[00:18] <spi343> hi all, i am trying to set up my wireless connection in ubuntu 8.10 with the network manager and i have some problems. My card is a senao 2511 CD and i am using host_ap drivers (everything went ok in 8.04). So i go to System->Preferences->Network Configuration, then i go to Wireless i click Add (i set up the connection ) i check "connect automatically" and "system setting" hit OK and wait for a connection but nothing. When i restart
[00:18] <spi343>  i notice the wireless card (wlan0 in my case) is not even up by itself, and if a try to manually connect to the AP it won't work either, i mean it connects (wavemon says so) but it doesn't receive any IP with dhclient. AGAIN this only happens with the latest kernel 2.6.27-7, if i start ubuntu with say .. 2.6.19 i can connect to my AP with iwconfing (not with the network manager) HELP
[00:19] <Rods_Tiger> I know the old 7.10 ubuntu used to work, but the new 8.10 simply doesn't. I haven't got the 7.10 any more
[00:19] <zeth_> I am testing out XIRC ... can someone say my name? thanks ..
[00:19] <vasiliev> jewbuntu
[00:19] <Maligne> zeth_
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> spi343: desktop or laptop?
[00:19] <imchrislabeard> ActionParsnip: for some reason its not capturing my keyboard on those keys
[00:19] <tsrk> ActionParsnip, do you know that command to switch user account creation home folder permissions to 700 instead of 755?

[00:20] <gub> heh
[00:20] <tsrk> ActionParsnip, I mean when an account is created
[00:20] <spi343> trontonic, nope, i have not
[00:20] <ActionParsnip> spi343: is it shown in lspci?
[00:20] <trontonic> spi343: then make sure ifconfig is right, then iwconfig, then sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning

[00:20] <ActionParsnip> tsrk: sure, just look at how permissions work in linux and chmod as you see fit
[00:20] <musashi> can i install amarok 2 beta from the ppa on an ubuntu system (i.e. no kde libs yet) and have it automatically pull in dependencies or does using a ppa cause problems?
[00:20] <sa7a> help
[00:21] <Maligne> musashi, if it's a good ppa, it should automatically include the deps.
[00:21] <sa7a> xandros users
[00:21] <Maligne> sa7a, yes?
[00:21] <vasiliev> on jewbuntu.org NOTE: This isn't real. There is no Jewbuntu yet, and this site is a great 'what if'. Tell us if you want to add your own suggestions or give us feedback - info is the name, jewubuntu dot org is the domain.

[00:21] <trontonic> psyferre: good luck :) If you get several error-messages, just continue installing packages that resemble the error, but with "dev". For instance, if you get a strawberry-error, try installing libstrawberry-dev. It usually works.
[00:21] <musashi> Maligne, okay thanks. any idea if the kde ppa is a "good" one? or will i know if it doesn't pull in dependencies?
[00:21] <pugsly> postfix makes my head spin.  i am failing completely
[00:21] <Maligne> sa7a, this is the ubuntu support channel. o_O
[00:21] <spi343> trontonic, i know how to connect, i have this bash script that works with other but the latest kernel 2.6.27, so it does everything ok, thing is the network manager stays in the way
[00:21] <LjL> sa7a, look at this channel's name. does it look like a channel for xandros users? :)
[00:22] <s0n1cm0nk3y> hello guys, i currently have a aspire 6920 and am having trouble using the install script for 1.0.18 in this link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=962695
[00:22] <Maligne> musashi, you'll know. it won't get past the dependency checkign (before it starts to download the packages). i reckon it is.
[00:22] <sa7a> look ubunt = debian build
[00:22] <psyferre> trontonic:  haha :D thanks :)
[00:22] <musashi> Maligne, cool. thanks for the info. i'll give it a go.
[00:22] <Trapecista> trontonic: how can i use an older version of g++? 4.1 insted of 4.3 in ubuntu

[00:22] <pugsly> I'm running postfix and egroupware on ubuntu server and I have no idea what i'm doing wrong

[00:22] <wallabee> i get the following when i "rm" the directory in the trash that cannot be deleted :
[00:22] <s0n1cm0nk3y> can someone with 1.0.18 help me install it on my machine, is there a repository that has the file in there? need help asap :(
[00:22] <pugsly> I went through the postfix configs and i don't see what port or auth method is being used
[00:22] <LjL> sa7a: that's not quite completely true, and anyway it doesn't matter, this is the *Ubuntu* support channel, not the Debian, and not the Xandros channel.
[00:22] <wallabee> rm: descend into write-protected directory `synce-gnome-0.11/dist'? y
[00:22] <wallabee> rm: remove write-protected regular file `synce-gnome-0.11/dist/synce_gnome-0.11-py2.5.egg'? y

[00:23] <Maligne> Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting piss-poor performance in Ubuntu w/ the nvidia drivers?
[00:23] <trontonic> Trapecista: If you install g++4.1, I think you can just say "CPP=g++41 make"
[00:23] <sa7a> where is #xandros
[00:23] <Maligne> It's almost like it's still using the nvidia drivers. o_o

[00:24] <Maligne> ActionParsnip, I don't really consider piss-poor a bad word.
[00:24] <trontonic> Trapecista: let's see, I'll try to find the accurate command
[00:24] <spi343> trontonic, i'm going to try what you said about stopping the network manager, any other idea about getting it to work ? i mean it does some pretty weird things, sometimes it deletes by it self the wireless network entry i just added, and stuff like that
[00:24] <Maligne> ActionParship, I'm on 8.04, 8.10 is even worse.
[00:24] <ninja> anyone else having a problem where all the 'nautilus' links under the Places menu (i.e. Desktop, Computer etc) are trying to start rhythmbox instead of nautilus?

[00:24] <trontonic> Trapecista: how about: CXX="g++4.1" make
[00:24] <spi343> trontonic, anyway on it's homepage it says it supports prism 2.5 with host_ap

[00:25] <ActionParsnip> Maligne: what spec system are you running?
[00:25] <trontonic> spi343: it's the networkmanager's fault.  I cannot enter a key in ubuntu 8.10. There is no way to do it.

[00:26] <ActionParsnip> Maligne: keep it there indefinately :D
[00:26] <secion8> @ActionParsnip: What version are you using?
[00:26] <wallabee> LjL: sorry what is the pastebin for future reference and how can i use it?
[00:26] <trontonic> secion8: bluetooth pairing is somewhat painful. There is supposed to be a bluetooth "pin" file somewhere in /etc
[00:26] <spi343> trontonic, let me try without it, i get back thanks
[00:26] <Maligne> ActionParsnip, no, it works better with Linux (much better) than this pc does.
[00:26] <trontonic> spi343: good luck :)

[00:28] <shawng> any idea why this is happening or any ways of fixing it ?
[00:28] <LjL> Tetracomm: i honestly don't know, due to the changes in how xorg is configured... but out of curiosity, why would you?
[00:28] <ActionParsnip> Maligne: looks fine http://pastebin.com/f499529d2
[00:28] <trontonic> Tetracomm: there are at least three ways. Editing /etc/xorg.conf is one way. Finding a gui-tool that does it for you is another.
[00:28] <Maligne> ActionParsnip, I agree.
[00:28] <ActionParsnip> Maligne: i run 1024x768
[00:28] <Maligne> ew.
[00:28] <Trapecista> trontonic: THANKS man :)
[00:29] <secion8> The way bluetooth is implemented in 8.10 appears to be changed.
[00:29] <Tetracomm> The colour depth at the moment is 16 bit, I think, and it looks awful.
[00:29] <Trapecista> g++-4.1 works
[00:29] <trontonic> Tetracomm: sorry, I meant /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[00:29] <trontonic> Trapecista: great :)
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> shawng: did you md5 check the server cd?
[00:29] <LjL> Tetracomm: that would be a bug, though... unless you have some really weird graphics card, bitdepth really shouldn't be 16-bit by default

[00:31] <secion8> @ActionParsnip: I also have no file called /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf
[00:31] <trontonic> ninja: there is a list somewhere that says which filetypes ("mime-types") should be opened with which applications. It sounds like the list is changed somehow so that directories are opened with rhythmbox instead of nautilus

[00:35] <hubar> question, I just downloaded firefox 3.1 beta for Linux. (I am using ubuntu intrepid) why does it look a lot more coarse than the FF3 that comes with intrepid?
[00:35] <s0n1cm0nk3y> LjL, sadly it does not work on my aspire 6920, that is the reason for my questioning about upgrades. i am following a forum post since it says 1.0.18 is what supposidly works
[00:35] <sfears> sorry about that
[00:35] <mrintegr1ty> does anyone know what is used to create the release schedule for ubuntu?
[00:35] <sfears> when i iwlist my cards it looks like it is pulling up some information from cache
[00:35] <valros> nah, no one in it
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> Tetracomm: what video card do you use?
[00:35] <trontonic> sfears: what are your cards named? wlan0 and wlan1?
[00:35] <sfears> eth1 & eth2
[00:36] <secion8> @secion8: I do not understand. bluez is already running. i can pair my BT mouse just fine. But when i try to pair a headset or my BT GPS it doe snot work because those devices ask for a 0000 PIN. bluez wants to make a random pin which these devices reject.
[00:36] <trontonic> sfears: that doesn't look like wireless cards
[00:36] <Tetracomm> ActionParsnip: An integrated Intel one.
[00:36] <sfears> eth0 is my networking card, eth1 is my internal network card and eth2 is my linksys card

[00:37] <hubar> question, I just downloaded firefox 3.1 beta for Linux. (I am using ubuntu intrepid) why does it look a lot more coarse than the FF3 that comes with intrepid?
[00:37] <ActionParsnip> Tetracomm: you could add: DefaultDepth    24 in the screen section maybe
[00:37] <sfears> nope.. i'm trying to get my wireless working
[00:37] <secion8> meant. @ActionParsnip:
[00:37] <funkja> hubar: maybe the fonts?
[00:37] <ActionParsnip> hubar: because its beta
[00:37] <sfears> my wired connection works fine.. that how i'm connected right now
[00:37] <s0n1cm0nk3y> anyone mind helping, i could really use some help
[00:37] <funkja> !ask
[00:37] <sfears> even though eth1 isn't wlan1.. in iwconfig.. it still shows my wireless network in the essid field.. but i'm not sure how to get connected to it
[00:38] <hubar> ActionParsnip: beta doesn't mean the coarse font issue.
[00:38] <Ravi> Just want to say THANK YOU to all the developers....I installed Ubuntu on my laptop and Xubuntu on desktop (kindaa old)...And I LOVE THEM BOTH!
[00:38] <ActionParsnip> hubar: it very well could
[00:38] <Jakoo> hubar the firefoox that comes with intrepid is ok why change it?
[00:38] <Tetracomm> Thank you ActionParsnip.
[00:38] <ActionParsnip> hubar: the browser renders the font and that part of the current beta maybe unpolished

[00:43] <Jakoo> i am trying to get why since i have installed a gtk theme on intrepid gedit opens slow like the hell , any idea?
[00:43] <nowimproved> something must have updated. wtf.. firefox is slow if im not in gnome now,  i cant even click the top menu without it laggingg ..........
[00:43] <qowao> ActionParsnip: now reboot?
[00:43] <nowimproved> and it is a default home directory
[00:43] <trontonic> crashsystems: possibly, change to another mirror using the menu in Synaptic (to get a faster mirror)
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> qowao: if you know what you want you dont have to waste time while synaptic messes around, you can tab complete package names too
[00:43] <oerms> does anyone know how to totally disable the HDMI ouput of intel GMA in intrepid?
[00:43] <qowao> perfect ActionParsnip
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> qowao: no, you hardly reboot linux
[00:43] <Humaan> hi I installed ndiswrapper and the drivers for my wireless card but it seems ndiswrapper and wireless card drivers with it give me worse connection than the built in ones on ubuntu. So how do I reverse this and go back to ubuntus rt2500pci drivers?
[00:44] <oerms> i have issues with gdm
[00:44] <qowao> restart FF?
[00:44] <shawng> ok
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> qowao: close all firefoxes
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> qowao: nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[00:44] <qowao> ok
[00:44] <JonathanEllis> Can anyone help me to get a Logitech Wingman Warrior joysst
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> qowao: sudo nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[00:44] <shawng> so now what burn another cd ?
[00:44] <MaT-dg> I can ping from my XP-system to my intrepid-system but not from intrepid to XP, what is wrong?
[00:44] <qowao> ok
[00:44] <tvp> 2
[00:44] <crashsystems> @trontonic I've got CLI access only. I'm simply not sure if it is possible to upgrade directly to 8.10, or if I must go through 8.04 first.
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> qowao: then rerun firefox
[00:44] <LjL> MaT-dg: probably nothing at all. XP's firewall doesn't let it reply to pings by default
[00:44] <funkja> MaT-dg: possibly a firewall issue?
[00:44] <Joe_Knight> anyone?
[00:44] <trontonic> crashsystems: it's possible, I did it.
[00:45] <Humaan> hi I installed ndiswrapper and the drivers for my wireless card but it seems ndiswrapper and wireless card drivers with it give me worse connection than the built in ones on ubuntu. So how do I reverse this and go back to ubuntus rt2500pci drivers?
[00:45] <shawng> but why would the check cd tell me the cd is fine when it is not =(
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> qowao: if flash crashes, run ps -ef | grep nsplug
[00:45] <sfears> MaT-dg, make sure you have samba installed & enabled
[00:45] <Joe_Knight> i cant get internet up and going on kubuntu help please
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> qowao: you can kill nspluginwrapper instead of firefox and you will be ok]
[00:45] <trontonic> crashsystems: you can do it from the CLI too. Search and replace "hardy" with "intrepid", sudo aptitude update, sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[00:45] <MaT-dg> LjL, funkja: firewall is turned off on the XP-system
[00:45] <LjL> sfears: what would that have to do with icmp ping?
[00:45] <crashsystems> @trontonic ok, is it riskier than the average upgrade to a new version?
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> qowao: all good?
[00:45] <trontonic> crashsystems: is this a production system? :)
[00:45] <qowao> hold on
[00:45] <qowao> loading
[00:45] <crashsystems> @trontonic yeah, its a workstation.
[00:46] <Guest53124> Trying to turn on Visual Effects on a Lenovo T61. Had it running fine /wo issues in 8.04. Did a cdromupgrade from the alternate CD. System has onboard Intel video. Any ideas?
[00:46] <funkja> MaT-dg: can you ping other things from your linux box?
[00:46] <sfears> not sure
[00:46] <b4b3> why i can't here sound in my lenovo...? somebadoy help me
[00:46] <BenwaH> hey all! I have just finished installing Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex server edition on my home-server, I am trying to "aptitude update" but it's verrrry slow, did anyone else notice the slow-speed?  It's an old Logitech Wingman Warrior with a gameport and a 9 pin D connector that looks like a serial port.  I also have a Thurstmaster FLight COntrol System that I would like to get working also.
[00:46] <qowao> WORKED ActionParsnip
[00:46] <qowao> TX
[00:46] <sfears> Guest53124, install envyng-qt
[00:46] <ActionParsnip> MaT-dg: can you ping by name or ip
[00:46] <funkja> BenwaH: Usually happens after a new release. Lots of load on the servers.
[00:46] <MrP0cketz> all workstaions but my 8.10 workstartion work
[00:46] <ActionParsnip> qowao: np bro, nsplugin wrapper is awesome
[00:46] <MrP0cketz> i can ping the router
[00:46] <Pav5088> Any people here with shell/sed knowledge?
[00:46] <MrP0cketz> but not google.com
[00:46] <luddite> my swap partition isnt enable. I have done mkswap /dev/sda1 and also swapon -a - this enables it. I have added the uuid to the the fstab but on reboot it doesnt add it. Any reason why?
[00:46] <qowao> perfect man
[00:47] <BenwaH> funkja, alright thx
[00:47] <sfears> MaT-dg, installing samba might configure the network
[00:47] <shawng> ok............
[00:47] <Humaan> hi I installed ndiswrapper and the drivers for my wireless card but it seems ndiswrapper and wireless card drivers with it give me worse connection than the built in ones on ubuntu. So how do I reverse this and go back to ubuntus rt2500pci drivers?
[00:47] <shawng> so burn another cd it is.
[00:47] <trontonic> crashsystems: hm. Then, to do it really properly, I would take a backup of at least /etc and /home, then install Intrepid from a CD while not formatting the filesystem and keeping /home as it is. That would do it properly, and you would keep your settings. Unless you've been editing files in /usr/bin and so on, it should work fine. And it would be a proper upgrade.
[00:47] <MaT-dg> funkja, yes for examle ping www.google.be works
[00:47] <vialas> hello everyone
[00:47] <b4b3> where can i find lenovo sound driver
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> qowao: help where you can and remember to kill nspluginwrapper if flash falls over
[00:47] <BenwaH> funkja, but it's at crawling speed.. 242 B/s right now hehe
[00:47] <LjL> Pav5088: ask your question instead of asking "anyone" questions. still, #sed and #bash might be better places for that.
[00:47] <JC_Denton_> how do I ensure my apache install is only accessible locally?
[00:47] <ubuntu__> anyone tell me how to fix error 17 with grub?
[00:47] <vialas> question on installing 8.10 --- after i log in i just get a mouse courser and nothing else..... anyone know what this could mean?
[00:47] <funkja> MaT-dg: doesn't seem to be a problem with Ubuntu then. Probably some windows fun.
[00:47] <mercutio22> my laptop media keys are broken in ibex
[00:47] <bender1337> hi im trying to play d2 on ubuntu and my monitor says out of range h: 81.3khz V:65.0hz
[00:47] <MrP0cketz> try accessing it from outside?
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> b4b3: run lspci in terminal, you will see your soundcard in the list, websearch from there
[00:48] <oerms> does anyone know how to totally disable the HDMI ouput of intel GMA in intrepid? xrandr doesn't do...
[00:48] <crashsystems> @trontonic I might just upgrade to 8.04, and then go to 8.10 latter
[00:48] <L00ker> Trying to turn on Visual Effects on a Lenovo T61. Had it running fine /wo issues in 8.04. Did a cdromupgrade from the alternate CD. System has onboard Intel video. Any ideas?
[00:48] <funkja> Benwah: :) did it just start going slow? is the rest of your connection slow?
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> mercutio22: is the input language correct?
[00:48] <qowao> strange thing ActionParsnip  i have no sound in flash vids
[00:48] <qowao> but otherwise
[00:48] <qowao> neverhad before in falsh
[00:48] <qowao> flash
[00:48] <FloodBot1> qowao: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:48] <trontonic> crashsystems: if there were to be any problems, it would probably be with graphics drivers or wireless network cards
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> qowao: theres loads of guides for that
[00:48] <BenwaH> funkja, the rest of my connection is fine, I can wget at 700K/s
[00:48] <crashsystems> no wifi cards, and an older graphics car
[00:48] <trontonic> crashsystems: if it's a server, I think an upgrade should go perfectly smooth either way
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> qowao: try: no sound flash ubuntu
[00:48] <qowao> k
[00:49] <trontonic> crashsystems: sounds safe to me
[00:49] <crashsystems> direct, or to 8.04?
[00:49] <ActionParsnip> qowao: in your favourite search engine, therres millions
[00:49] <MaT-dg> funkja, I don't know it worked on hardy (even with xp firewall on) and not anymore in intrepid, XP-config hasn't changed
[00:49] <funkja> Humaan: You'll want to uninstall ndiswrapper. If you used apt, you can do sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper-utils. So long as you didn't uninstall or disable the orginal drivers, ubuntu will fall back to them.
[00:49] <qowao> found something
[00:49] <BenwaH> funkja, only ca.archive.ubuntu.com is slow, anyways, I guess it's just that everyone is doing an update at the same time
[00:49] <MaT-dg> ActionParsnip, what do u mean with that?
[00:49] <mercutio22> ActionParsnip> how do I verify?
[00:49] <L00ker> How do I force Ubuntu to re-probe for video configuration
[00:49] <decherdt> !wireless > decherdt
[00:49] <ezzieyguywuf> so i'm pretty stoked because it seems that the new open source video driver in ibex fully supports my ati video card!!! that being the case, i'm going to try to stick to as much of the 'stock' installation as possible, in order to avoid unneccessary bloate. so, is there any easy way to config compiz from the stock installation or does the compiz config package need to be installed?
[00:49] <funkja> BenwaH: yup. You'll just have to be patient I guess. Go for a walk. :)
[00:49] <vialas> question on installing 8.10 --- after i log in i just get a mouse courser and nothing else..... anyone know what this could mean?
[00:49] <qowao> sudo aptitude install alsa-oss ??
[00:50] <luddite> my swap partition isnt enable. I have done mkswap /dev/sda1 and also swapon -a - this enables it. I have added the uuid to the the fstab but on reboot it doesnt add it. Any reason why?
[00:50] <trontonic> crashsystems: Synaptic is very good at resolving broken packages compared to apt-get, in my experience. I would actually install synaptic (including a small X-server that follows), just to do the upgrade.
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> MaT-dg: you are  trying to ping a windows system, can you ping by name? can you ping by ip?
[00:50] <rickforth> My sound used to work on 8.04...  under 8.10 it only works on AC-3.  Anyone have any ideas of what I can do to fix it?
[00:50] <funkja> MaT-dg: hm. Well. I guess you could get a packet sniffer to make sure that Ibex is actually sending the packets.... but it seems likely as you can ping other t hings.
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> qowao: sure
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> !sound | rickforth
[00:50] <ezzieyguywuf> luddite: i had problems with my swap when i was trying to install. i ended up just deleting all my partitions and then re-partitioning them. i don't know of your problem is related to a bad install or not...
[00:50] <trontonic> crashsystems: You can also use "upgrade-manager", the gui for upgrading that comes with Ubuntu, but it's a bit flakey
[00:51] <Humaan> what if I did disable them
[00:51] <crashsystems> @trontonic what about aptitude? synaptic is really not an option for me, as I only have an ssh connection.
[00:51] <LjL> luddite: what does the fstab line say exactly?
[00:51] <Humaan> how can I check if there still there?
[00:51] <trontonic> crashsystems: here's what I would do, if you take advice from strangers on IRC ;)
[00:51] <trontonic> crashsystems: hmm...
[00:51] <rickforth> hi ActionParsnip, i've read the faqs and tried all of those links.  Any more ideas?
[00:51] <auxpat> upgraded to 8.10 on an ibm t42, and i cannot get out of low graphics mode... any ideas?
[00:51] <trontonic> crashsystems: only ssh, that is more risky again
[00:52] <s0n1cm0nk3y> where is the repository file in ubuntu? sources.list
[00:52] <crashsystems> I've updated a server that way
[00:52] <IndHlp> help please, someone
[00:52] <L00ker> auxpat: I'm on a t61 -- having the same problem
[00:52] <funkja> s0n1cm0nk3y: /etc/apt/sources.list
[00:52] <LjL> s0n1cm0nk3y: /etc/apt/sources.list
[00:52] <ActionParsnip> rickforth: id run lspci and see if they need more config
[00:52] <ezzieyguywuf> omg, i am seriously loving ibex.
[00:52] <LjL> !ask | IndHlp
[00:52] <trontonic> crashsystems: yes, me too. It's not really risky, but still
[00:52] <qowao> hey ActionParsnip i should do sudo gedit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc but i got an empty file
[00:52] <MrP0cketz> DNS doesnt seem to be working on my 8.10 box
[00:52] <auxpat> L00ker: yay i'm not alone
[00:52] <ezzieyguywuf> does ibex come with a frontend for compiz-config?
[00:52] <MaT-dg> ActionParsnip, I tried pinging by name and ip, both didn't work -> "Destination Host Unreachable"
[00:52] <L00ker> auxpat: you also have the default Intel video card ?
[00:52] <ActionParsnip> qowao: never sudo gedit, use gksudo gedit
[00:53] <methods> can i get grub to auto detecct my windows installation ?
[00:53] <qowao> ok ActionParsnip
[00:53] <crashsystems> @trontonic a connection drop would be risky, but I'm using screen.
[00:53] <auxpat> L00ker: yea i think so
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> MaT-dg: do you have ips in the same subnet mask?
[00:53] <MrP0cketz> methods, yes
[00:53] <methods> how ?
[00:53] <CCoolty> i hear you can run linux on this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150307525184
[00:53] <MrP0cketz> install windows
[00:53] <MrP0cketz> install ubuntu
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> qowao: sudo is for apt and mv (apps staying in terminal) gksudo is for apps like gedit and synaptic
[00:53] <qowao> still empty ActionParsnip
[00:53] <qowao> ok ActionParsnip
[00:53] <LjL> MaT-dg, are you *completely sure* that you've enabled the XP box to reply to icmp pings?
[00:53] <MrP0cketz> grub should automatically detect it
[00:53] <methods> MrP0cketz:  to late ..process was done backwards
[00:53] <clint> someone help me install a theme if you have time please
[00:53] <trontonic> crashsystems: okay, how about this: 1. replace "hardy" with "intrepid" in /etc/apt/sources.list, 2. aptitude update, 3. aptitude dist-upgrade
[00:54] <s0n1cm0nk3y> does anyone know if alsa 1.0.18 is in the testing repository?
[00:54] <IndHlp> I want to install ubuntu, but I can't get beyond the third step
[00:54] <funkja> clint: what type of theme?
[00:54] <trontonic> crashsystems: (or feisty with hardy first)
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> qowao: try more websearching, there are a few things to try which is the fun of linux, rarely a single fix is right
[00:54] <auxpat> L00ker: i tried changing the xorg.conf but that did not help
[00:54] <crashsystems> @trontonic ok, I'll do that (intrepid)
[00:54] <qowao> maybe its just empty
[00:54] <qowao> haha damn ActionParsnip
[00:54] <jimv2000> @Clint:  DOwnload the theme.  It should be a tar.gz file.  Drag the file into the Appearance control panel window.
[00:54] <qowao> ill just put it in the emptyf file
[00:54] <Uplink> how can i check my partition sizes?
[00:54] <qowao> and save it
[00:54] <MaT-dg> ActionParsnip, yes both are set up witch DHCP, mask is <IP_ADDRESS> on both systems
[00:54] <LjL> trontonic, crashsystems: i'd add "make sure ubuntu-desktop (or whatever the relevant metapackage is) is installed, as well as ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-standard"
[00:54] <trontonic> crashsystems: I think it will go smoothly
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> qowao: maybe you need to use alsa in sound preferences of your system
[00:54] <funkja> IndHlp: What instructions are you following?
[00:54] <crashsystems> @trontonic yesterday I upgraded 13 desktops via apt-cacher. That was quite fun ;)
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> MaT-dg: ok cool
[00:55] <rickforth> Hi ActionParsnip, i've run lspci and my sound card comes up (ICH9 family).   What would I do next?
[00:55] <trontonic> crashsystems: nice :)
[00:55] <jimv2000> @Uplink:  Install gparted
[00:55] <secion8> @trontonic: how do i start "trayer"
[00:55] <bwoodruff> Has anyone got toshiba_acpi working in Intrepid?
[00:55] <shawng> burning cd as 4x we will see how it works..
[00:55] <trontonic> secion8: intall it, then just start it. Alt+f2, trayer
[00:55] <Uplink> jimv2000: any other easier way?
[00:55] <crashsystems> @trontonic thanks for the advice
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> rickforth: copy the line for you card to your favourite search engine and see what you can see
[00:55] <trontonic> crashsystems: good luck, I don't think you should expect any problems with the upgrade
[00:55] <clint> funkja, see idk what kind i need to download...im using ub 8.04 and looking at this site...http://www.gnome-look.org/
[00:55] <clint> gtk 1.x gtk 2.x???
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> i gotta hit the hay, im up in 6 hours
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> peace out kiddies
[00:56] <Uplink> clint: need help with themes?
[00:56] <funkja> clint: gtk 2.x most likey.
[00:56] <billybigrigger> is anyone else aware of any other content managing like wordpress? but not wordpress?
[00:56] <clint> yea but what kind of theme do i need to get
[00:56] <clint> what kind does ub8.04 require?
[00:56] <dulak> billybigrigger: drupal and joomla are both pretty complete CMS systems that can double as blogs
[00:57] <trontonic> billybigrigger: wrong channel. plone is another cms
[00:57] <clint> yes uplink
[00:57] <jimv2000> @Uplink:  Oh, this is new...go to System> Administration > System Monitor and click the FIlesystems tab
[00:57] <funkja> clint: ubuntu uses gtk and metacity by default. it doesn't have it's own themes.
[00:57] <L00ker> auxpat: yeah -- not sure what to try...
[00:57] <L00ker> using T61 /w onboard Intel video card. Cannot turn on Visual Effects -- was working in 8.04. Any thoughts on where to start ?
[00:57] <zer0o> somebody tried ibex? how is it?
[00:57] <Uplink> jimv2000: thanx a lot bud
[00:57] <Uplink> clint: what you need
[00:57] <clint> ok i saw the mac style icon selection style...im trying to get that working
[00:57] <trontonic> zer0o: google
[00:57] <clint> the bottom scrolling icons
[00:58] <d00kiejones> #ubuntu-boot
[00:58] <vialas> so anyone got any ideas of ubu hanging just after i enter my password???
[00:58] <Uplink> clint: make sure to type my name if you want help
[00:58] <billybigrigger> dulak, are they packaged for ubuntu like wordpress?
[00:58] <trontonic> vialas: at the commandline, graphical login or when you enter the system password in another context?
[00:58] <funkja> clint: if you are referring to some sort of dock at the bottom - that requires a different program, not just a theme.
[00:59] <d00kiejones> ?
[00:59] <d00kiejones> how do i change channels here?
[00:59] <trontonic> d00kiejones: "/j #somechannel"
[00:59] <clint> funkja, what kind of program?
[00:59] <funkja> !dock
[00:59] <funkja> !docks
[00:59] <funkja> darn :)
[00:59] <trontonic> funkja: just install "trayer", for instance
[00:59] <jimv2000> @clint: lookup Kibadock or CairoDock
[00:59] <dulak> billybigrigger: the older version of drupal is, but for a web app it's probably best to install into your webspace yourself, cuz packages tend to update really slowly compared to actual development
[00:59] <d00kiejones> thanks tron
[00:59] <clint> funkja, http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/willibex?content=86844
[01:00] <vialas> trontonic its after i install ubu, the gui comes up asking me to log in, i put the correct details, and the screen goes black, i can see the mouse pointer wich moves around, but nothing works, not even numb lock, and i left it at that stage all night, and it didnt log in.
[01:00] <jimv2000> !kibadock
[01:00] <nevans> the "detect displays" button-combo (Fn-F7) on my thinkpad stopped working in Intrepid.  :(
[01:00] <jimv2000> !cairodock
[01:00] <dulak> billybigrigger: both are really easy to install actually, you extract into your web space and run a setup file from your browser and it's done
[01:00] <LjL> !fishing
[01:00] <nevans> has anyone else had a problem with that
[01:00] <xorlim> /j/j #wikipedia
[01:00] <trontonic> vialas: ah, it's a windowmanager-problem. When you start up and you get the graphical screen ("gdm"), you can click the "session" button and select different windowmanagers. Is it currently on "GNOME"?
[01:01] <trontonic> nevans: most likely. Have you searched the web?
[01:01] <funkja> clint: okay. What you would do is download the GTK theme, which will download it to your desktop. Then open up System->Preferences->Appearance. There is an Install button in the lower right on the window that opens. You can then install the theme you just downloaded.
[01:01] <vialas> trontonic i belive so
[01:01] <iRocK_> yo
[01:01] <iRocK_> where is botserv?
[01:01] <nevans> trontonic, doing that right now, actually.
[01:01] <vialas> trontonic thats the one i like :D
[01:01] <jimv2000> is there a way to hide the join/leave notifications
[01:02] <trontonic> vialas: great, then we've narrowed it down to a GNOME-problem
[01:02] <Uplink> how can i get rid of /.miro/? i tried rm -rf .miro/ but wont go away? >:|
[01:02] <qowao> hey i tried to fix the firefox sound issue but there was no /etc/firefox/firefoxrc on my disk, why not/???
[01:02] <clint> i extracted the theme i want and browsed from the theme editor and nothing....what kinda file am i looking for
[01:02] <clint> when i browse
[01:02] <compengi> Uplink, rm -R .miro/
[01:02] <vialas> trontonic cool , is it easyer if i pm you?
[01:02] <BunTai> my new 8.10 cant enabled visual effect..im using acer aspire 4520 nvidia 7000m..anyone help me
[01:02] <qowao> there was not eve n etc/firefox folder on my disk!
[01:02] <trontonic> vialas: neh, it's fine here. Whenever you say "trontonic" it turns yellow :)

[01:03] <Guest3470> Can I use 32-bit Opera on amd64 using ia32-libs? This package have not libqt-mt, so Opera does not work. Can I compile it by myself or use ia32-libs-kde from an older version like 7.10 ?
[01:03] <vialas> trontonic would be much esyer
[01:03] <funkja> clint: you shouldn't extract it. You should keep it as a bzip or gz or tar, the theme manger installs it compressed.
[01:03] <secion8> Why are the most common of tasks so hard in linux. This is why it will not beat windows out of the market.
[01:03] <vialas> trontonic thanks for your help thus far :D

[01:05] <funkja> Uplink: right click on the trash icon and click "Empty Trash"
[01:06] <Uplink> jrib: is that a command?
[01:06] <think_linux> hello....has anyone used webmin before? if yes for what?? tha ks
[01:06] <AstralSin> did the upgrade to intrepid kill anyone else's nvidia driver?

[01:07] <qowao> there was not eve n etc/firefox folder on my disk!
[01:07] <rebel_kid> is there an alternative for no-ip (a dynamic dns pointer?) free is best :)
[01:07] <jrib> Uplink: why aren't you using the GUI?
[01:07] <secion8> When i try to pair my GPS it does not let me enter a PIn of 0000. Which is what the device requires. Also cannot enter the pin into my phone because it does not show up and tell me what key to enter on the laptop.
[01:07] <funkja> clint: was it the one that you linked to?
[01:07] <compengi> Uplink, delete files that you don't want them :D
[01:07] <secion8> @jrib: Wher eis the rant forum.. there really should be one. this is nonsense.
[01:07] <LjL> luddite: i figured that, it looks right but have you double-checked the uuid? honestly i'd try with /dev/sda1 instead of the uuid if all else fails
[01:07] <jrib> secion8: /dev/null
[01:07] <Uplink> compengi: i dont want anything in trash and its taking 400MB of my HDD
[01:08] <clint> funkja, yea
[01:08] <compengi> Uplink, huh?
[01:08] <jrib> secion8: if you think it's a bug, file a bug
[01:08] <secion8> @jrib; yeah, figures.
[01:08] <funkja> clint: I'm not sure... it didn't show up for me either.
[01:08] <Ward1983> anyone have tried a PVR-150 with mythtv by any chance?
[01:08] <secion8> Why, it will never get fixed..
[01:08] <Ward1983> it wont see channels when i scan
[01:08] <jrib> secion8: especially if you don't file it...
[01:08] <Uplink> compengi: ugh never mind
[01:08] <luddite> LjL : checking now - so  i can have /dev/sda1 3 none swap sw 0 0 ?

[01:09] <think_linux> any advice before getting ready to configure linux router on a new nachine? :)
[01:09] <compengi> hello LjL, how's doing?

[01:09] <d00kiejones> can anyone help me with a easy hibernate issue
[01:09] <Genius314> Can someone help me install 8.10 without formatting my existing /home partition?
[01:09] <luddite> LjL: 3 was a cut'n'paste typo
[01:09] <think_linux> anythinhg i should consider?
[01:09] <secion8> Anyone care to drive attention to this. it is a serious problem for me not to be able to use my cell phone and have GPS paired.
[01:09] <compengi> Genius314, back up you /home
[01:09] <jrib> Genius314: just don't check "format" when you install
[01:09] <Ward1983> think_linux, NSUML :D i found it recently it looks promising but i didnt try it myself yet
[01:09] <funkja> clint
[01:10] <Genius314> jrib: I tried that. It checked automatically, and I couldn't uncheck it.
[01:10] <secion8> Same goes for any device asking for a 0000 PIN
[01:10] <LjL> secion8: ah so it's specific to GNOME? that must be why i don't remember having that problem myself...
[01:10] <funkja> clint: i'm sorry. I don't know about that theme. I also need to leave. Sorry I couldn't help more. Try googling for Ubuntu and themes, there are quite a bit of helps out there. good luck.
[01:10] <jrib> Genius314: install without a separate /home then and change your fstab later
[01:10] <mdmkolbe> How do I get a *minimized* list of installed packages? (i.e. I only want things that are not automatically installed due to dependencies; dpkg --get-selections doesn't cut it)
[01:10] <LjL> secion8, jrib: i'd definitely call it a bug anyway. there are several devices (headsets for instance) that have no means of inputting a PIN, and just always use 0000
[01:10] <Uplink> how do i remove a lot of dirs in a dir?
[01:11] <think_linux> Ward1983 .  yeah looks promising...but the config looks kinda mond twisting
[01:11] <Genius314> jrib: Okay. I guess that will work.
[01:11] <think_linux> mind
[01:11] <sfears> trontonic.. still here?
[01:11] <jrib> secion8: there are some workarounds there
[01:11] <Ward1983> think_linux, it are all just virtual linux hosts

[01:12] <Ward1983> think_linux, do you have routing experience? what are you trying to achieve?
[01:12] <compengi> Uplink, /* means root directory. i hope you didn't use sudo too, because you shouldn't be here by now

[01:13] <Ward1983> you
[01:13] <jrib> secion8: that link shows you how to rebuild packages.  I'll be back later if you're still stuck, but many other people can help you rebuild a package as well
[01:13] <Uplink> compengi: lol i didnt use sudo... it said "permission denied" like 1000000 times
[01:13] <compengi> good.
[01:13] <sfears> my wireless cards are showing up as eth1 & eth2 instead of wlan1 & wlan2.. i think that is incorrect
[01:13] <LjL> Uplink: that doesn't mean it didn't delete stuff (from your home for instance)

[01:13] <felix-da-catz> I upgraded to 8.10 and loaded the nvidia 177 driver.  Now for some reason my title bars are going screwy.  Sometimes it gives a multicolored (tye-died) look to the title bar.  Most of the time though it just doesn't show the minimize, maximize and close buttons.
[01:13] <jrib> Uplink: this is why you should be using the gui to empty trash...
[01:14] <Ward1983> think_linux, are all those people on one switch by any chance?
[01:14] <think_linux> Ward1983 : thy are
[01:14] <Ward1983> think_linux, is it a cisco switch?
[01:14] <think_linux> Ward1983 : yes
[01:14] <Uplink> jrib: lol yea but i only got one panel, and its full so i took off the trash icon
[01:14] <think_linux> Ward1983 : not sure on that
[01:14] <Uplink> LjL: yea lol >.<
[01:14] <secion8> @jrib: i guess i will give it a shot.. Seems like alot of work to get such a simple thing working though. I guess i will be learning something new today.. Thanks for the help..
[01:14] <secion8> And sorry for the rant..
[01:14] <jrib> Uplink: I told you about the "File -> Empty Trash" menu item in nautilus (the file browser)
[01:14] <Ward1983> think_linux, its on the device, there should be a brand, should you have it near you
[01:15] <Uplink> jrib: what is nautilus?
[01:15] <jrib> secion8: yeah, bugs are annoying, but at least with open source you can do something about them (even though it sucks sometimes)
[01:15] <secion8> Ubottu: Can you please resend that link. I lost it..
[01:15] <jrib> Uplink: the file browser

[01:16] <jrib> secion8: you edit the source before the dpkg-buildpackage part
[01:16] <lindenle> !openldap
[01:16] <Uplink> why is my root partition bigger than my home?
[01:16] <Ward1983> think_linux, ok then you should check the exact type and name, brand, etc of the device, check if its a switch or a hub, if its a hub all traffic goes to all ports so you jsut have to open up wireshark and fileter by ip :) (very easy)
[01:16] <felix-da-catz> Uplink:  You have to answer that one.
[01:16] <Uplink> what i meant is that, is it supposed to be like that?
[01:16] <think_linux> Ward1983 : haha wireshark is great lol
[01:16] <compengi> Uplink, because root contains all your operating system files.
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> Uplink, i'd say you screwed up while installing.
[01:17] <felix-da-catz> uplink:  Depends on the system really.
[01:17] <Ward1983> think_linux, if its a switch and its cisco you can use port spanning, you can get all the traffic out of one port then, you hook a machine to that port with wireshark, done
[01:17] <felix-da-catz> uplink:  If it is a server, then it is not a big deal.  But if it is your desktop, then you might be regretting it.
[01:17] <Uplink> IndyGunFreak: yea i know, i didnt know a bit of a thing to install linux
[01:17] <think_linux> Ward1983 : yeah that sounds good
[01:17] <Uplink> felix-da-catz: its a notebook... 120GB lol
[01:17] <think_linux> Ward1983 : didnt think about it! thakns!!
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> Uplink, why did you even create a separate /root partition?
[01:17] <felix-da-catz> think_linux:  Port mirroring is another name for port spanning.
[01:17] <Ward1983> think_linux, only for the last option it would be best if you used a faster port, some switches have a gigabit port next to 100megabit ones
[01:18] <Ward1983> think_linux, wireshark is your friend if you need to monitor peoples traffic :)
[01:18] <klos> argh new flash player plus ubuntu 8.10 SUCKS BIF TIME
[01:18] <Joe_Knight> i need help connecting to my router
[01:18] <felix-da-catz> uplink:  Did you do automatic disk setup?  Or did you configure the partitions yourself?
[01:18] <clint> klos, how so?
[01:18] <wnet1> wwwfatur
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> klos, sorry to hear that, its quite fabulous for me
[01:18] <Uplink> felix-da-catz: myself lol
[01:18] <clint> klos, no sound mebbe?
[01:18] <klos> clint, i have to restart firefox every ten minutes or so
[01:18] <think_linux> Ward1983 : i gotta check that too....yeah wireshark is great, i need to make sure its gonna work!!
[01:18] <Ward1983> think_linux, also if its not a hub, not cisco and you cannot connfigure portspanning... you can still do it :p
[01:18] <klos> no sound AND no video
[01:19] <klos> it just stops after 3 seconds
[01:19] <wnet1> wwwcom
[01:19] <felix-da-catz> uplink:  Sounds like time to backup and reload ubuntu.  :D  I just did so myself.
[01:19] <clint> i downgraded due to the problems i had
[01:19] <think_linux> Ward1983 : so wireshark is the thing then!
[01:19] <wnet1> wwwnn
[01:19] <klos> yea i gonna kill the system in a month anyway
[01:19] <felix-da-catz> uplink:     This time I did custom partitions because I hated backing up my 40gig /home directory.
[01:19] <klos> so it doesnt matter
[01:19] <clint> kill the system?
[01:19] <klos> but the upgrade didnt work out being good for me, however
[01:19] <wnet1> www...cow
[01:19] <Ward1983> think_linux, so if al lthe above is not possible you can use arp spoofing to monitor specific hosts :p but i would not recommend that if you dont have experiendce with networking
[01:19] <Iradieh> Has anyone here used Xbox Media Center with a remote?
[01:19] <klos> yea im selling this computer as im going overseas
[01:20] <Uplink> felix-da-catz: why would i reload ubuntu? i rather resize
[01:20] <wnet1> www...com
[01:20] <klos> and gonna setup a new mahcine then
[01:20] <think_linux> Ward1983 : i have talked to some IT guys, and they told me that by creating ur own linux router, yuou could have the advantage of installing any program u need on it....for ur needs
[01:20] <klos> is there anyway to downgrade to flash 9 ?
[01:20] <felix-da-catz> think_linux:  It is easy, but hard.  wireshark rocks, but it takes a little knowledge before it is useful.  I would start reading up now.
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> Uplink, that will take you longer than reinstalling
[01:20] <felix-da-catz> uplink:  Go for it.  If you can resize, great.
[01:20] <Ward1983> think_linux, what kind of IT guys?
[01:20] <think_linux> Ward1983 : yeah im not really into netorking
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> resizing that will be disastrous
[01:21] <think_linux> Ward1983 : network admin
[01:21] <MaT-dg> how can I see what my DNS adres is that ubuntu uses?
[01:21] <Ward1983> think_linux, what they probably mean is a linux server as a gateway to the internet
[01:21] <Uplink> IndyGunFreak: why is that...
[01:21] <onetb> my system is booting at a display configuration outside of the boundries of my video card.  when I get past the ubuntu load screen, my monitor reads "out of range".  what can I do from here?
[01:21] <think_linux> Ward1983 : explain please
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> Uplink: well, go ahead and try it, and have fun doing it, just be prepared to just reinstall anyways.
[01:21] <Uplink> i never reinstalled an OS except windows so idk what is like
[01:21] <Ward1983> think_linux, that way you cannot see any traffic between the hosts in your network itself
[01:21] <CardiacKid> I remote into my Ubuntu machine through a vnc. Since I do not have a monitor plugged into the machine, my available screen resolution maxes out at 800 x 600. How do enable higher resolutions?
[01:21] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  ifconfig -a
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> Uplink: well you installed Ubuntu didn't you?
[01:21] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  It is your hw-address
[01:22] <Rafeiro> whats up
[01:22] <think_linux> Ward1983 : no one can see?
[01:22] <Rafeiro> can anyone tell me whats the expose plugin name for ubuntu? i cant find it
[01:22] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Sorry.  cat /etc/resolv.conf
[01:22] <mikebot> Can someone help me get the network thing (that shows all the wireless networks near me) in 8.10?
[01:22] <Rafeiro> the one that organizes window in grid view
[01:22] <Joe_Knight> netgear wg511v2
[01:22] <mistercash> MaT-dg, /etc/resolv.conf
[01:22] <Ward1983> think_linux, depends lol
[01:22] <think_linux> Ward1983 : lol...how come u know so much about networking

[01:23] <wombat_> hi guys. On a new Intrepid 64bit install, why can't Synaptic find packages? they are there from the command line.
[01:23] <onetb> can i change my screen res from the recovery console?
[01:23] <Genius314> So before I click "next"... if the format box isn't checked, it WON'T delete any data, right? (Unless of course there's a bug or something) I'm setting this partition as /home, but not formatting it.
[01:23] <mikebot> Can someone help me get the network thing (that shows all the wireless networks near me) in 8.10?

[01:24] <Ward1983> but not certified (yet)
[01:24] <MaT-dg> mistercash, felix-da-catz: thx, but is there no other way like 'ipconfig' in windows?
[01:24] <onetb> izzy: just ask
[01:24] <felix-da-catz> joe_knight:  Figure out what your gateway address is.  From there open up a browser and go to that IP address.  Unless you changed the default username/password it should be admin/password
[01:24] <think_linux> Ward1983 : i see
[01:24] <Ward1983> think_linux, i only have my diploma for the school you go to untill you are 18 (dunno how its called)
[01:24] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Not that I know of.
[01:25] <Pici> !ot | Ward1983 think_linux
[01:25] <onetb> can i change my screen res from the recovery console?
[01:25] <Ward1983> Pici, is networking considered offtopic? then weĺl continue trough /msg
[01:25] <izzy200198> I have a dualboot win xp and Ubuntu 8.04 PC. I upgraded to 8.10 via internet. After rebooting I noticed the cd/dvd drive is missing in ubuntu. Only showing hard drives. I rebooted and from the GRUB menu selected the previous kernal. cd/dvd shows and works just fine as before the upgrade. Rebooted again to new kernal and once again the cd/dvd player is missing. Anyone know how to resolve this? I'm stuck and will be forced to go
[01:25] <Rafeiro> is my question that hard
[01:25] <Rafeiro> lol
[01:25] <onetb> can i change my screen res from the recovery console?
[01:25] <BuckWild`> hey, I upgraded to 8.10 and now ubuntu doesn't seem to be able to find my hidden wireless network until I open network connection manager, anyone else encountered this problem and know of a workaround?
[01:25] <sYskk> does anyone know why i keep getting an error when trying to set a ESSID to an interface ? "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "essid_here"" ?
[01:25] <think_linux> Ward1983 : alright man, theyr gettin mad..hha...i gotta go anyway....thanks a lot for the help
[01:25] <mikebot> Can someone help me connect to the internet with 8.10?
[01:25] <Rafeiro> someone please? can anyone tell me whats the expose plugin name for ubuntu? i cant find it
[01:26] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: cna you be more specific
[01:26] <Ward1983> think_linux, well i think its semi-offtopic since you can hookup ubuntu in a network to monitor your hosts liek you were possibly gonna do :p
[01:26] <IndyGunFreak> you're obviously online
[01:26] <Pici> Ward1983: Ubuntu networking is ontopic, discussing certs is offtopic, but ##networking exists for that.
[01:26] <Ward1983> think_linux, ok good luck, if its a cisco device go to #cisco for assistance
[01:26] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Well, I no longer have the thing in the top-right corner that shows me all the wireless networks near me.
[01:26] <izzy200198> anyone?
[01:27] <bioboti> help, newbie here. I can't get my laptop to output on my VGA panel. I have nvidia-settings installed but it won't output
[01:27] <MaT-dg> I found out that the nameservers (DNS) of ubuntu are outside the ranges of my local network, is that the reason why I can't ping other machines with ubuntu?
[01:27] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: I'm on a different computer, sorry, haha.
[01:27] <Pici> sYskk: What error are you getting?
[01:27] <Ward1983> Pici, lol ok, that was like one sentence but ok
[01:27] <msk> Hi, can someone tell me how to get TTYs to show up on both windows under a dual monitor laptop setup? When I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, for example, I want it to always show up on both of my monitors. I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers, if that makes any difference.
[01:27] <secion8> @jrib: you here?
[01:27] <think_linux> Ward1983 : thanks alrigt...keep it up with the good work...peace
[01:27] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: well what device do you have?
[01:27] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Uhh, what do you mean?
[01:27] <Pici> Ward1983: I just popped my head in, so it was the first thing I saw.
[01:27] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg: probably not.
[01:27] <Coded1> BuckWild`: it could be the upgrade reset your /etc/network/interfaces, you have to fill in the wireless settings in there
[01:27] <onetb> can i change my screen res from the recovery console?
[01:27] <darkdancer> Hello all....
[01:27] <secion8> @jrib: i downloaded the source, now what do i do? Is there a good manual for editing tand building the package?
[01:27] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: open a terminal and type "lspci" no quotes.. hit enter, and see how it idenfities your wireless device
[01:27] <Ward1983> Pici, ah ok sorry it seemed liek you focussed on me, now i know better :)
[01:27] <sYskk> Pici: SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
[01:28] <CardiacKid> nialli, IE view add-on for firefox
[01:28] <BuckWild`> Coded1, I thought the new network manager overrides the network interfaces stuff
[01:28] <Rafeiro> dudes
[01:28] <gandalfcome> I have a list [77,88,200] and I want to make a list [77,77,88,88,200,200] i tried LC but that gives me [[77,77],[88,88],...]. thanks
[01:28] <Rafeiro> whats the compiz plugin that allows a window organize effect similar to expose?
[01:28] <darkdancer> When I installed 8.10 I can't get one of my drives to mount, any help?
[01:28] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  I would think it is the default route that is your problem.  route -v
[01:28] <Coded1> BuckWild`:  is the problem that you have to reconnect from scratch on each boot?
[01:28] <Pici> sYskk: Does wlan0 show up when you do iwconfig alone?
[01:28] <onetb> can i change my screen res from the recovery console?
[01:28] <sYskk> yes it does
[01:28] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG {Golan] Network COnnection (rev 02)
[01:29] <BuckWild`> Coded1, no, I just have to start the network connection manager and it immediately starts
[01:29] <sYskk> everything works except ESSID...
[01:29] <Genius314> Rafeiro: What's expose? It sounds familiar... can you explain it?
[01:29] <gandalfcome> sorry wrong channel
[01:29] <BuckWild`> Coded1, it looks to me like it's a keyring problem or something actually
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: thats weird, intel usually works out of the box to my knowledge...
[01:29] <niall> hi...um if i need to get to a webpage that is only supported by IE how can I get to it?
[01:29] <secion8> Where is source files downloaded to? I am trying to edit wizard/main.c for bluez-gnome
[01:29] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Well, how can I get that list of networks? I didn't have a problem connecting with 8.04, but in this I can't even see the available networks.
[01:29] <izzy200198> anyone?
[01:30] <Pici> sYskk: How about if you try: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid -- "essidname" ?
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: i really don'tknow.... i take it you're not attempting to connect to your own personal network?
[01:30] <onetb> can i change my screen res from the recovery console?
[01:30] <Coded1> BuckWild`:  that could be, i just upgraded but I dont use the network manager, the interfaces file works right off the boot
[01:30] <princethrash> I'm looking at a tutorial that wants me to use the command "kismet_server --daemonize".  However, this command is not recognized by kismet_server.  Does anyone know the equivalent command?
[01:30] <Pici> secion8: if you used apt-get source, then your current directory.
[01:30] <Coded1> (still works right off the boot)
[01:30] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: default route is the adres of my router but 'Genmask' is <IP_ADDRESS>, is that an error?
[01:30] <bioboti> I can't get my laptop to output on my VGA panel. I have nvidia-settings installed but it won't output....
[01:30] <GeorgeAScott> hi, im looking for some support for rndis tethering.  i had it working two days ago, but now can't get an ip from the device
[01:30] <Rafeiro> Genius314, found it, its the scale effect ;-)
[01:30] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: I am, but I don't know any of the details of it.. plus I want to be able to connect to other networks when need be.
[01:30] <Rafeiro> Genius314,  just had to initiate it on upper corner
[01:30] <sYskk> let me see..
[01:31] <msk> Hi, can someone tell me how to get TTYs to show up on a certain monitor under a dual monitor laptop setup? When I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, for example, I want it to always show up on my laptop screen. I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers, if that makes any difference.
[01:31] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Yes, that can be a big problem.  Make sure your netmask is set properly.
[01:31] <onetb> can i change my screen res from the recovery console?
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: makes sense but i have no idea what your problem might be.. maybe try the forums, or see if someone else chimes in here... surprises me Intel doesn't work.
[01:31] <darkdancer> When I installed 8.10 I can't get one of my drives to mount, any help?
[01:31] <sebastian> i resently installed ubuntu and its running really slow, can it be caused by anything?
[01:31] <mikebot> IndyGunFreakOK, thanks.
[01:31] <msk> onetb, i dont' think so, but why would you need to?
[01:31] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  No, sorry.  That means anything that is not on your local network goes out of the default gateway
[01:31] <izzy200198>  I have a dualboot win xp and Ubuntu 8.04 PC. I upgraded to 8.10 via internet. After rebooting I noticed the cd/dvd drive is missing in ubuntu. Only showing hard drives. I rebooted and from the GRUB menu selected the previous kernal. cd/dvd shows and works just fine as before the upgrade. Rebooted again to new kernal and once again the cd/dvd player is missing. Anyone know how to resolve this?
[01:31] <secion8> @Pici: Thanks, found it. Do you know how to edit source and then rebuild a package?
[01:31] <mikebot> DOes anyone know how to display the list of available wireless netowrks in 8.10?
[01:31] <secion8> or know a good manual.
[01:32] <Pici> !compile | secion8 this might help you
[01:32] <bioboti> sebastian, go to the terminal and type "top", then press enter. Should show you a list of what's running and taking up resources
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: what happens when you got o system/pref/network config and click the wireless tab?
[01:32] <BuckWild`> Coded1, is there a way to shut off the new style connection manager and revert to the old one?  I know the new one has features and whatever, but the old one was a lot more reliable
[01:32] <onetb> msk: after the ubuntu load screen, monitor shows "out of range" because the res is higher than my card will suport
[01:32] <wbk> it
[01:32] <compengi> darkdancer, sudo fdisk -l (see if your drive is listed there)
[01:32] <sYskk> Pici: uh... it gives me a trace call coming from ndiswrapper
[01:32] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: 3 things listed: Auto linksys (7 months ago), Auto linksys-3420 (10 mon., ago), Auto tmobile (10 mo. ago)
[01:32] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  can you ping your dns servers?
[01:32] <Pici> sYskk: Thats odd
[01:32] <BuckWild`> Coded1, I can't even get a manually configured IP address to work right with a wired network, which really was pissing me off the other night
[01:33] <bioboti> anyone have experience with nvidia cards? I can't get my laptop to output on VGA
[01:33] <sYskk> Pici: "ndiswrapper (set_essid:59): setting essid failes (C0000001)"
[01:33] <secion8> @Pici: thanks
[01:33] <Pici> sYskk: I'm not too familiar with ndiswrapper, perhaps something else is going on here.
[01:33] <Coded1> BuckWild`: i dont use either myself but i would guess you could use add/remove
[01:33] <darkdancer> compengi um, not sure
[01:33] <Fish-Face> Hey all. The VPN widget of nm isn't saving my MPPE setting
[01:33] <Genius314> So if I select a partition as my /home partition, but don't select "format," nothing should be deleted from it, right?
[01:33] <sYskk> Pici: maybe I should edit the interfaces file ?
[01:33] <sebastian> bioboti: its the same thing as last time :( made me stop using linux, the xorg process it using a lot of my cpu, can i fix it?
[01:33] <sYskk> maybe
[01:34] <izzy200198>  I have a dualboot win xp and Ubuntu 8.04 PC. I upgraded to 8.10 via internet. After rebooting I noticed the cd/dvd drive is missing in ubuntu. Only showing hard drives. I rebooted and from the GRUB menu selected the previous kernal. cd/dvd shows and works just fine as before the upgrade. Rebooted again to new kernal and once again the cd/dvd player is missing. Anyone know how to resolve this?
[01:34] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: But you know what I'm talking about, right? Like the thing you click on and it shows you the avilable networks and their strengths and whether or not they require a password?
[01:34] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz, the one's in resolv. conf? yes I can ping both adresses shown (those are adresses of my ISP)
[01:34] <stevensnewest> hello, do any of you know where i can find a Adobe Flash installer thats compatible with the PS3's cell processor? (PowerPC)
[01:34] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: I can't get to that thing.
[01:34] <nintendork87> what is the command for installing java sdk?
[01:34] <Pici> princethrash: Are you running it with sudo?
[01:34] <compengi> darkdancer, can't you tell by size?
[01:34] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Can you visit a website?
[01:34] <phix> nintendork32: apt-cache search jdk
[01:34] <GeorgeAScott> im looking for a support channel for rndis-lite and tethering with smartphones.  im stuck using the smartphone and cant /list to search myself
[01:34] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  I am assuming you are on the same machine you are using to connect to irc?
[01:34] <msk> Hi, can someone tell me how to get TTYs to show up on a certain monitor under a dual monitor laptop setup? When I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, for example, I want it to always show up on my laptop screen.
[01:35] <phix> nintendork32: sun-java6-jdk looks promising
[01:35] <izzy200198> no one knows?
[01:35] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: yeah, thats nm-applet
[01:35] <izzy200198> anyone?
[01:35] <princethrash> Pici yep, I am.  the --daemonize option is also not printed out when kismet_server tells me that I have given it a bad option
[01:35] <Pici> GeorgeAScott: /msg alis help list
[01:35] <Fish-Face> Hey all. The VPN widget of nm isn't saving my MPPE setting - it's being set to off as soon as I press "OK" in the Advanced dialog
[01:35] <Fish-Face> Oh
[01:35] <Fish-Face> actually
[01:35] <Fish-Face> it's being set off if I change it to 128bit encryption
[01:35] <nintendork87> phix thought that was runtime
[01:35] <FloodBot1> Fish-Face: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:35] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: is it visible, or is it just when yuo click it, you seeno networks?
[01:35] <bioboti> sebastian, have you tried any other distros to see if the same problem happens?
[01:35] <nintendork87> well then whats the command to install runtime
[01:35] <sebastian> bioboti: no i havent.
[01:35] <darkdancer> compengi um, not sure
[01:35] <darkdancer> Oh yay, I'm lagged out...
[01:35] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: I don't see it at all, should I try running that command in terminal?
[01:35] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz, yeah internet works perfectly, I just can't ping my XP-pc (pinging ubuntu-pc on XP-px works however)
[01:35] <darkdancer> compengi: oh, I think I may see it....
[01:35] <Pici> princethrash: What version of kismet? kismet_server -v should tell you?
[01:35] <bioboti> can anyone help me get my external VGA monitor running with my nvidia card??
[01:35] <xorlim> how do I see what packages I have installed?
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: hmm,
[01:36] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg: Check your firewall on the XP machine.
[01:36] <princethrash> Pici;  2005.08.R1
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: try right clicking your panel, add to panel, and add "Notification Area", and see if you see it then
[01:36] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Haha, I did it, it showed up..
[01:36] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz, firewall is turned off
[01:36] <nintendork87> whats the command to install java runtime?
[01:36] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: But I have a feeling now that I can't close this terminal..
[01:36] <deftone> for some reason when i boot up my system a file browser starts up....where can I fix this??
[01:36] <compengi> darkdancer, you can try sudo mount -a /dev/sd.. if it won't then we would do something else
[01:36] <felix-da-catz> Try pinging the IPAddress of the XP machine.  If that is the case, then you need to setup an entry in your /etc/hosts file.
[01:36] <musikgoat> nintendork sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: yeah, you can't.. add "notification area" to your panel, and it will load on startup
[01:37] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Is there a way to open nm-applet without running it through a terminal?
[01:37] <rickforth> HI, i'm able to get limited audio working in Ibex.  Can anyone help - this topic doesn't seem to be covered in the FAQs / etc.
[01:37] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg: Try pinging the IPAddress of the XP machine.  If that works, then you need to setup an entry in your /etc/hosts file.
[01:37] <nintendork87> thanks
[01:37] <izzy200198> thanks anyway
[01:37] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: are you listening to what i said?
[01:37] <msk> Hi, can someone tell me how to get TTYs to show up on a certain monitor under a dual monitor laptop setup? When I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, for example, I want it to always show up on my laptop screen. I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers, if that makes any difference.
[01:37] <sebastian> does anyone know how i can fix my xorg process? its taking all of my cpu
[01:37] <onetb> how can I adjust screen res if running in text-only mode
[01:37] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz, pinging ip fails -> "Destination Host Unreachable"
[01:37] <Joe_Knight> adept cant find ndiswrapper then crashes
[01:37] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Yeah, I'm rebooting now..
[01:37] <Joe_Knight> any clue
[01:37] <deftone> for some reason when i boot up my system a file browser starts up....where can I fix this??
[01:38] <felix-da-catz> +
[01:38] <natalie> Is there anyone who could help me with a problem that I am having.  My computer freezes regularly when I am surfing the net, but seems to be fine when it idles
[01:38] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: ok, if you added the notification area like i aid, it should be there when you restart, and you can move the notification area whereever you want it(i guess most have it by the clock), most likely you removed it on accident
[01:39] <darkdancer> compengi:  can't find /dev/sda3 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[01:39] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: The thing is, I had all my other stuff up there (like the system mon. thing, the clock, volume control, etc.)
[01:39] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  You sure the firewall is turned off?  Windows and anti-virus firewalls?
[01:39] <Pici> princethrash: Its possible that this argument is not supported on the version in Dapper.  I can tell you it works on at least anything from hardy-backports onward.
[01:39] <Genius314> Do I have to import the settings from my old install if I'm using the old /home partition as my new one?
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: ok... well unless you have an 8in screen.. you should have plenty of room for notification area
[01:39] <thilmegil> anyone feel like helping Ubuntu noob who has reinstalled about 6 times in a week? I can't get my drive mounts and partitions right.  using 8.04
[01:39] <compengi> darkdancer, okay, then create a directory in /mnt/<name>
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: and you should keep notification area anyways, because it will alert you to updates, etc.
[01:39] <princethrash> Pici, thanks for the help.
[01:39] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Haha, right, I meant I don't know how I would have removed it.
[01:40] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: 100% sure, only have the windows firewall
[01:40] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: oh ok.., wel, accidents happen
[01:40] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: She's almost done booting.
[01:40] <intangir> nalioth: hey
[01:40] <deftone> for some reason when i boot up my system a file browser starts up....where can I fix this??
[01:40] <rezor21_> In the 8.10 release notes they I should use the "nv driver" for my monitor now instead of the nvidia legacy package. Does anyone know which package the "nv" driver comes in?
[01:40] <musikgoat> natalie: are there specific sites or just in general?
[01:40] <Ward1983> natalie, try epiphany, that one seems faster then firefox, maybe it helps
[01:40] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  What is your ultimate goal?  Is there something else you want to do that is not working?  Or is it just ping?
[01:40] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: when firewall is on ICMP requests are allowed and filesharing is an exception
[01:40] <sYskk> what is the difference between iwconfig and /etc/network/interfaces ?
[01:40] <Ward1983> natalie, (epiphany is a browser)
[01:41] <jrib> secion8: the stuff in !compile is not what you want.  Have you figured it out?
[01:41] <natalie> It's not specific sites, it just seems to happen whenever I am surfing the net for any length of time.  Once I reboot, it seems to happen more often
[01:41] <darkdancer> compengi: with the name of the drive or the sda3?
[01:42] <compengi> darkdancer, anything you want, it's just a mount point with anyname you want
[01:42] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: did it work?
[01:42] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: I'm trying to set up samba and running the checklist http://ftp.easynet.be/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/diagnosis.html
[01:42] <darkdancer> compengi: ok, created.
[01:42] <ypahnu> hi , ( im on desktop ubuntu 8.10 ) I instaled mysql-server  I forgot the password, what can I do ?
[01:42] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: It popped up asking for a password, one second.
[01:42] <compengi> darkdancer, then try sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/<name>
[01:42] <musikgoat> natalie: test epiphany and if you see that the problem doesn't exist, then firefox must be doing something funky, like bad mem management or something
[01:42] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: currently stuck at pinging ;)
[01:42] <felix-da-catz> Mat-dg:  So you can't see the shares on your linux box from Windows?  Or the other way around?
[01:42] <rickforth> i'm doing an audio pass through to my amp.  Can anyone explain why AC-3 at 48khz would work, but nothing else will (eg. AAC)
[01:42] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: then that would indicate that network is password protected
[01:42] <musikgoat> natalie: or the weasel or seahorse or whatever else mozilla offers
[01:43] <msk> Hi, can someone tell me how to get TTYs to show up on a certain monitor under a dual monitor laptop setup? When I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, for example, I want it to always show up on my laptop screen. I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers, if that makes any difference.
[01:43] <darkdancer> compengi: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[01:43] <natalie> thank you, I will give that a try
[01:43] <WIGGMPk> How do you remove any source packages that were downloaded????
[01:43] <compengi> darkdancer, what system type is it?
[01:43] <msk> sudo apt-get remove ____
[01:43] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: The paossword I have is a HEX key, is that WEP 40/128-bit key, WEP 128-bit passphrase, LEAP, or Dynamic WEP (802.1x)?
[01:43] <msk> ?
[01:43] <darkdancer> It's an ext3 drive
[01:43] <bioboti> anyone? nvidia won't let me output on VGA
[01:43] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: that i'm not sure of, but wep 40/128 sounsd good..lol
[01:44] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: that is correct
[01:44] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Which way?
[01:44] <darkdancer> compengi: It's an ext3 drive
[01:44] <compengi> darkdancer, then sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda3 /mnt/<name>
[01:44] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: Both ways there is nothing found
[01:45] <ypahnu> tomorow I will format my PC because I forgot MySQL server passoword
[01:45] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: AH wonderful, I seem to be connected.
[01:45] <dave_> omg everytime i upgrade
[01:45] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Thank you very much for your help.
[01:45] <vialas> hi here
[01:45] <dave_> i get this nvidia nightmare
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> mikebot: np
[01:45] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Humm.  That is weird.  apt-get install smbfs is one thing I would try for linux to windows.
[01:45] <darkdancer> compengi: Ok, that must not be the drive
[01:45] <vialas> anyone help me with a login problem?
[01:45] <Uplink> !reinstall
[01:45] <Uplink> uhhh
[01:45] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: yeah I know, it worked perfectly on hardy
[01:45] <compengi> darkdancer, umount it and check others :)
[01:45] <darkdancer> compengi: mount: wrong fs type,
[01:45] <compengi> darkdancer, you might want to add it to fstab too
[01:45] <Uplink> how can i get a reinstall ubuntu without losing my config?
[01:46] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Humm.  That is weird.  Anything else change?
[01:46] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Router or something else?
[01:46] <mikebot> IndyGunFreak: Goodbye,m thanks again.
[01:46] <ypahnu> ubotttu, I tried to do that.. my config don't delete
[01:46] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Do you have a router?  How are you getting your IP addresses?
[01:46] <msk> Hi, can someone tell me how to get TTYs to show up on a certain monitor under a dual monitor laptop setup? When I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, for example, I want it to always show up on my laptop screen. I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers, if that makes any difference.
[01:47] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz, nope router is the same, XP-config is the same, ip's are the same, only thing that changed is ubuntu going from 8.04 to 8.10
[01:47] <yoyoned> msk: it sounds like your trying to run x on one monitor, but not the other
[01:47] <darkdancer> compengi: not real sure how to umount....anyway, don't think that's it, that must be the windows drive
[01:47] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  I would reboot the router, just to make sure.
[01:48] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Is there anything else on your network you can try to ping?  Like the router?
[01:48] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: both machines get there adresses with DHCP
[01:48] <compengi> darkdancer, you need to make sure of file system first and your drive :)
[01:48] <msk> yoyoned: no, what I mean is this. Sometimes I have my laptop with an external monitor plugged in and other times I don't. When I don't have it plugged in, if I hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a TTY, nothing shows up. When I have the monitor plugged in, the terminal is only on the external monitor, so I"m assuming that this is the problem.
[01:48] <ypahnu> ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) ? Why am I getting this?
[01:48] <compengi> darkdancer, as i said, you could figure out by sudo fdisk -l
[01:49] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: ping to router works
[01:49] <Franny> MaT-dg, cant mount a win share?
[01:49] <felix-da-catz> ypahnu:  Is mysql running?
[01:49] <msk> yoyoned: also, if I change my xorg.conf so that it's only set up to output to my laptop but I leave the external mon. plugged in, then the TTY still outputs to the external monitor
[01:49] <darkdancer> compengi: I know the file system, I don't think the drive is showing in fdisk -l
[01:49] <fallore> I have the exact problem described here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=968391 . I don't know, however, how to do what he describes as the solution. It looks like it'd be pretty simple, can anyone help me out?
[01:50] <ypahnu> ohh , right !
[01:50] <ypahnu> now it is.. but I cannot connet because of password
[01:50] <compengi> darkdancer, it should. or less it's lost
[01:50] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  That is pretty weird.
[01:50] <compengi> else*
[01:50] <jrib> fallore: pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and the output of 'lspci'
[01:50] <vialas> anyone help?
[01:50] <vialas> :$
[01:50] <jrib> vialas: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to answer you
[01:50] <storrgie> how can i edit the things in the gnome menu?
[01:50] <fallore> jrib: i have a command line, i don't have a browser
[01:50] <natalie> Unfortunately, shortly after opening Epiphany and beginning to surf the net, my computer froze and had to be manually reset
[01:50] <darkdancer> compengi: it's a sub off the drive that I boot from....
[01:50] <droids> hm, anyone handy with networking?
[01:50] <felix-da-catz> ypahnu:  That is easily solved.  You have to use a startup switch that doesn't load the mysql tables when you start mysql, then you can reset the password.
[01:51] <jrib> fallore: use the 'pastebinit' command
[01:51] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz, yeah first thing I should try to get working is pinging my XP-machine I guess
[01:51] <chocobo17> hi
[01:51] <vialas> i tried jrib but no one helping :S
[01:51] <jrib> storrgie: right click on the ubuntu icon -> edit menu
[01:51] <fallore> jrib: oh neat. hold on, i have to reboot. brb
[01:51] <droids> i need to set up static ip so i can ssh my home box from work.
[01:51] <chocobo17> fdllld
[01:51] <dave_> WTF nvidia drivers killing me
[01:51] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  But you can ping the linux machine from XP right?
[01:51] <ypahnu> startup switch !?
[01:51] <vialas> Can somone help me with ubuntu not loading after putting in my pw...? any help would be much appreciated
[01:51] <jrib> vialas: I can't help you if I read "help me" instead of a question though :)  Better to just repeat it instead of saying things like "help me"
[01:51] <storrgie> jrib: thanks, where are those located? In the .local/share?
[01:51] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: that is correct
[01:51] <felix-da-catz> ypahnu:  Just search for reset mysql password
[01:51] <wombat_> Never mind, fixed it myself :http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=969983
[01:51] <ypahnu> the menu before booting?
[01:51] <jrib> droids: does your isp give you a static ip?
[01:52] <dave_> i got the nvidia nv18 geforce4 mx 440 agp anyone know how to get this going?
[01:52] <jrib> storrgie: yeah
[01:52] <droids> jrib: yes, but i'm connected through a router with roommates.
[01:52] <dave_> i used to use nvidia 96.43.7? from nvidia site, now that doesnt work
[01:52] <dave_> any ideas?
[01:52] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Have you checked the firewall on the ubuntu machine?
[01:52] <compengi> darkdancer, maybe install gparted and check it out there?
[01:52] <droids> jrib: i just need to figure out how to setup the router for it.
[01:52] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Maybe you could setup wireshark to see if you notice anything funny.
[01:52] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: no how do I do that?
[01:53] <storrgie> jrib: thanks buddy :D
[01:53] <jrib> droids: your just configuring a static ip on the router then?  not on your machine on the local network?  Do you know about dyndns.org by the way?
[01:53] <felix-da-catz> try iptables --list and see what it shows.
[01:53] <jrib> you're*
[01:53] <droids> jrib: i do not.
[01:53] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  iptables --list to see soemthing and iptables --flush to clear all of your rules.
[01:53] <droids> jrib: but yes, i am just configuring it on the router.
[01:54] <ThomasG33K> How do I get vmware tools to work in Intrepid Ibex with the 27 kernel
[01:54] <CardiacKid> I need to install a driver, but I can only fin it in .rpm format. How do I install?
[01:54] <vialas> anyone have any ideas on geting ubuntu to load up after pw has been enterd?
[01:54] <wandana> I always ahve trouble with unison
[01:54] <jrib> droids: your router runs ubuntu?  dyndns.org and ddclient (in the repos) will let you access your machine as droids.dyndns.org for example
[01:54] <wandana> Can I keep an older version of unison on my just updated ubuntu 8.10?
[01:54] <compengi> vialas, could you be more specific?
[01:54] <storrgie> When i mount my mdadm array I always get this little bar in gnome that says f-spot cd, or brasero etc. Can i make this not happen?
[01:55] <harmonizer>  /msg NickServ identify 123sterf
[01:55] <droids> jrib: no, the router doesn't run ubuntu, i suppose.  whatever firmware linksys puts on there.
[01:55] <fallore> jrib: hey, i'm here again. can you tell me what to do again?
[01:55] <musikgoat> suggestion for a screen capture recorder that can function with compiz
[01:56] <Coded1> i was going through this howto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CairoDock but it says intrepid has it built in?
[01:56] <jrib> droids: then if you want to configure your router, you need to read the documentation or try a different channel, this channel can only help you with setting stuff up on ubuntu really
[01:56] <Coded1> if so where do i activate it?
[01:56] <vialas> I put my password into ubuntu, press enter, brown screen loads up, Nothing happens, keybaord stops working, mouse still moves
[01:56] <jrib> fallore: pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and the output of 'lspci'
[01:56] <lakota> trying to run a .bin file as root threw terminal and I am getting denied because of no permissions can some one help me. im very new to linux
[01:57] <wandana> So, how to keep an old package version on ubuntu 8.10?
[01:57] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz: there seems to be no rules in iptables
[01:57] <jrib> lakota: what .bin?
[01:57] <droids> jrib: i know, i was just looking for someone who had experience on the matter.  i'll see if i can get dyndns to work out, though.
[01:57] <tarelerulz> I have an install of Ubuntu 7.10 and I update the kernel ,but it don't show that in the grub menu so I try to do it by hand. I Don't under stand what this means  root=UUID=e9bd9541-5f57-4034-b3d6-7a4fea191077 . I understand what is in the rest of the grub file I think ?
[01:57] <Coded1> lakota: type 'sudo' infront of commands that give you that error
[01:57] <secion8> @jrib; not too sure what i have figured out. I found the file wizard/main.c and edited a couple lines to match the address of my bluetooth device and saved the file. not sure what too do now. Do i have to delete what is currently installed? How? Do i have to build this main.c file?
[01:57] <lakota> ./jre-6u10-linux-x64.bin
[01:57] <littlelambda> Any know what package iwconfig is in? or better, how I would find out myself?
[01:57] <secion8> Not even sure i am doing the right thing here?
[01:57] <fallore> jrib: so do i just enter "pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" ?
[01:58] <msk> yoyoned: also, if I change my xorg.conf so that it's only set up to output to my laptop but I leave the external mon. plugged in, then the TTY still outputs to the external monitor
[01:58] <jrib> secion8: run 'sudo apt-get build-dep NAME_OF_PACKAGE' and then follow the steps on the link I gave you to build the package (dpkg-buildpackage ...)
[01:58] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  There has to be something that is preventing it from working.  tracert would be nice to try, but it isn't going to work in this situation.
[01:58] <msk> Hi, can someone tell me how to get TTYs to show up on a certain monitor under a dual monitor laptop setup? When I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, for example, I want it to always show up on my laptop screen. I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers, if that makes any difference.
[01:58] <darkdancer> compengi: k
[01:58] <jrib> fallore: I think so (may need some switch)
[01:58] <e-frame> littlelambda: iwconfig is preinstalled. man iwconfig for description
[01:58] <ezzieyguywuf> where's a good place to check what the normal operating temperature of my cpu is? i'm running an intel core duo in a lenovo thinkpad t60p
[01:58] <fallore> jrib: okay lemme try
[01:58] <scunizi> fallore, yes that's one of the ways of using pastebinit
[01:58] <fallore> thanks scunizi
[01:59] <fallore> jrib: scunizi: how do i pastebinit an output?
[01:59] <natalie> I'm not entirely sure what is causing it, but it seems that my os is locking when it is making gconf calls.  Is there any good way to determine what is causing the freezes that happen on my pc?
[01:59] <scunizi> fallore, np... great tool
[01:59] <jrib> fallore: lspci | pastebinit
[01:59] <xorlim> my libSDL is broken.
[01:59] <xorlim> it doesn't work with supertux2.
[01:59] <xorlim> what do I do?
[01:59] <secion8> What did i edit in the wizard/main.c file. That is what was talked about here. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez-gnome/+bug/284994
[01:59] <fallore> thanks jrib
[01:59] <lakota> said command not found and I am and I already did  su and then password
[01:59] <jrib> secion8: huh?
[02:00] <erisco> the new nvidia drivers for ubuntu are very noticeably worse than the old ones in 8.04... is there any way I can use the old ones?
[02:00] <fallore> didn't work, jrib, nor did "pastebinit lspci"
[02:00] <thilmegil> anyone feel like helping with mount point issues?
[02:00] <Uplink> can i resize my / partition from 20GB to 8GB and my /home from 6GB to 20GB without giving any conflicts to my ubuntu?
[02:00] <jrib> lakota: java is in the repositories.  Use your favorite package manager
[02:00] <littlelambda> e-frame: thanks, but Im planning a minimal install. It may not be, im guessing.
[02:00] <danbhfive> thilmegil: whats the problem?
[02:00] <ezzieyguywuf> anyone know a good resource to check safe operating temperatures for my cpu? intel core duo in a lenovo thinkpad t6op
[02:00] <lakota> ok
[02:00] <xorlim> how do I list what packages I have installed on my system?
[02:00] <jrib> !java > lakota
[02:00] <danbhfive> Uplink: size wise, that works.  Unless you are installing lots of stuff, I think you can get by with 6g on /
[02:00] <MaT-dg> felix-da-catz, I'm going to boot another XP-machine and see what happens, brb
[02:01] <thilmegil> tried installing ubuntu 6 times this week alone
[02:01] <jrib> fallore: just do lspci > temp-file   and then pastebinit tempfile
[02:01] <felix-da-catz> mat-dg:  Cool.  :D
[02:01] <secion8> @jrib: I am trying to do the workaround that Daniel Newman talks about on that link.
[02:01] <thilmegil> cant get all of my drives seen with me as the owner
[02:01] <jrib> secion8: right.  So what step are you on now?
[02:01] <Uplink> danbhfive: yea but im wasting space on my root, and my /home is a bit tight...
[02:01] <jrib> thilmegil: what does that even mean?
[02:01] <e-frame> littlelambda: ubuntu minimal doesn't have iwconfig?
[02:01] <secion8> i just finished editing wizard/main.c
[02:02] <RobH1> xorlim: You can go to Synaptic Package Manager in the System > Administration menu
[02:02] <jrib> secion8: did you run sudo apt-get build-dep NAME_OF_PACKAGE?
[02:02] <jrib> !who | secion8
[02:02] <fallore> jrib: http://www.pastebin.com/f2c2fe94f and http://www.pastebin.com/f620c571 for lspci (hopefully) and xorg.conf
[02:02] <|Zippo|> how can I fix the problem with firefox + flash plugin?
[02:02] <msk> can someone explain the difference between apt-get, aptitude, dpkg, etc.?
[02:02] <thilmegil> it means that i cant move files around on the drives that dont show me as owner
[02:02] <|Zippo|> it's consuming 100% of my CPU

[02:04] <m3nar8> what is the best nvidia or vesa drivers for sli (2 8600 gts)
[02:04] <jrib> fallore: you should be able to just edit your xorg.conf the same way.  You can use the same busid
[02:04] <|Zippo|> i'm on 32
[02:04] <RobH1> has anyone heard of 8.10 problems with keyboards?  When I hold both control buttons and scroll on the touchpad, X.org crashes
[02:04] <Gnea> nick123: did you install it from the repositories?
[02:04] <RobH1> ...and also sometimes when I don't do that
[02:04] <fallore> jrib: i don't know what my busid is, or which one i should use, and i don't know how to edit my xorg with just a cmd line interface
[02:04] <nick123> um, no
[02:04] <nick123> im on arch
[02:04] <jrib> fallore: just add    BusId "1:0:0"   to the nvidia section
[02:04] <nick123> their irc channel is just dead
[02:04] <fallore> m3nar8: be careful when you update your nvidia drivers when you're SLI'd, i did that and things broke
[02:05] <Gnea> nick123: we support Ubuntu in here. not Ubuntu-derivatives.
[02:05] <fallore> jrib: i don't know how to do that with a cmd line. also, do i include quotes?
[02:05] <nick123> nvm
[02:05] <jrib> fallore: use 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' to edit
[02:05] <xorlim> how do I see what graphics driver I have installed?
[02:05] <secion8> @Jrib: Just ran it.. now what?
[02:05] <jrib> fallore: yes, include the quotens
[02:05] <|Zippo|> Gnea: i've installed, <IP_ADDRESS>, and I just found a tutorial to fix <IP_ADDRESS>
