[07:57] <Zach_> angel
[07:57] <Zach_> you don't need antivirus
[07:57] <purpzey> Is there a way to protect a partition which contains factory defaults when installing Ubuntu, such that if my ubuntu install goes totally fubar or something goes wrong I can recover from that partition?
[07:57] <variant> Jordan_U: ahh, k :)

[07:59] <variant> !anyone | Sam_

[07:59] <ubotu> optix: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:59] <Sam_> i have a windows computer, how do i connect my windows computer to my pptpd server
[07:59] <variant> Sam_: printer server?
[08:00] <Sam_> no file server
[08:00] <purpzey> variant: Well, if I leave the partition as it is, and then have Ubuntu remove my XP partition, but leave the backup partition remaining....If I wanted to, how would I then restore the Ubuntu partition from the backup partition?
[08:00] <optix> any here have a lot knowledge on ubuntu?
[08:00] <Sam_> so when someone connects to my vpn server, they can read the files
[08:00] <variant> Sam_: and it's an ubuntu server right?
[08:00] <Jordan_U> Sam_, Maybe that is a better question for #windows
[08:00] <Sam_> the VPN is on ubuntu yes
[08:00] <purpzey> It is a factory installed default partition.
[08:00] <CraZy675> okay what is the trick to installing flash player 9?
[08:00] <Sam_> but i have a windows computer i want to read the files of of
[08:00] <variant> purpzey: sorry, i thought you ment a winxp backup partition
[08:00] <Jordan_U> CraZy675, Go to a site that needs flash, let firefox install flash9 :)
[08:00] <optix> putang ina nyo
[08:00] <genii> optix The best thing is just to ask your specific question that is causing you an issue, then see if someone may have the answer for you
[08:01] <nailbiter> Sam_: So the Ubuntu computer is the VPN _client_?  And you want to connect to a VPN server running Windows XP?
[08:01] <variant> purpzey: so how would you normally back ubuntu up from that?
[08:01] <Sam_> no
[08:01] <monaleilani> how do I install software from source? I understand I type "make" in the directory.. but then what?
[08:01] <kronoman> hello
[08:01] <Sam_> the ubuntu server is the VPN server
[08:01] <variant> !compile | monaleilani
[08:01] <homanj> monaleilani: usually make install
[08:01] <ubotu> monaleilani: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:01] <Sam_> i want to be able to like connect this computer to the VPN server the files off this computer i want to be on the vpn server
[08:01] <kronoman> I installed KDE on top of my Ubuntu... now the splash screen changed to Kubuntu... how I switch back to Ubuntu splash screen??
[08:01] <huey> hi, anyone know the Path to TRASH BIN, and how to access that TRASH folder in Terminal?
[08:01] <CraZy675> Jordan_U: it never seems to download
[08:01] <Pijiu> how do I get rmvb files to play without having to use realplayer
[08:01] <variant> !splash | kronoman
[08:01] <ubotu> kronoman: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[08:01] <genii> monaleilani: First you need certain things as prerequisite, like the package build-essential    then the normal process would be to do: make   then make install
[08:01] <Sam_> the files are on this server, so when people connect to teh vpn server (on ubuntu) they can read files all over my copmuter
[08:02] <kronoman> ubotu: I mean the boot splash and powerdown
[08:02] <orbin> huey: ~/.Trash
[08:02] <variant> kronoman: ubotu is a bot
[08:02] <huey> Orbin: let me try
[08:02] <variant> !bootsplash | kronoman
[08:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootsplash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:02] <variant> bah
[08:02] <kronoman> huey: the path to trash is .Trash
[08:02] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, You will need to do "sudo apt-get build-dep ndiswrapper ( or whatever the package is )" first though
[08:02] <Sam_> so like is there anything i need to do so that my files on this computer a read when people login the vpn server
[08:02] <purpzey> variant: Maybe I was unclear...If so I apologize completely...I am looking to install Ubuntu on my laptop which is currently running XP...It also has a partition installed by factory, that restores to straight up factory settings...If I removed the XP partition and replaced it with the Ubuntu partition...but leaving the backup partition in place..If I then wanted to restore from that partition, how would that work?
[08:02] <kronoman> huey: in example, cd ~/.Trash
[08:02] <orbin> !restricted > Pijiu (read pm from ubotu)
[08:03] <huey> thanks
[08:03] <huey> I got it
[08:03] <kronoman> huey: what I don't know if the path to trash is the same in gnome and kde
[08:03] <kronoman> any clue on that?
[08:03] <huey> I used GNOME so it should be OK
[08:03] <Sam_> is there anything i can do i have webmin and webmin stuff, but i can do command prompt too
[08:03] <Jordan_U> purpzey, GRUB will probably detect the recovery partition and make a menu item for booting it.
[08:03] <variant> purpzey: with your OEM windows cd i presume. ask that question in #windows if you want a decent answer
[08:04] <nailbiter> Sam_: If you already have the VPN service set up, you just need to enable file-sharing
[08:04] <Sam_> .....
[08:04] <Sam_> ok
[08:04] <purpzey> Ok. Thanks guys.
[08:04] <Sam_> do i need to enable file sharing on the server
[08:04] <huey> Anyone know the Command Line for PURGING all of the FILES in TRASH BIN? Because I could not EMPTY my TRASHBIN
[08:04] <Sam_> or is it a client to client thingy
[08:04] <Toma-> huey: you dont NEED to use CAPS that mucH :)
[08:05] <genii> purpzey On some machines like Dell or some Compaq the grub boot manager sees these system partitions fine and makes entries for them
[08:05] <Toma-> huey: 'rm -rf .trash/*'
[08:05] <optix> any here offer chat?
[08:05] <nailbiter> Sam_: Did you want to share files on the Ubuntu VPN server? Or did you want to make the VPN clients' file shares visible to each other in the Windows Network Neighbourhood browser?
[08:05] <optix> i need hhelp to my ubuntu thnx
[08:05] <Sam_> second option
[08:05] <Sam_> i want this computer turned on, connected to vpn
[08:05] <huey> Toma: thanks
[08:05] <Sam_> and when im at portable location
[08:06] <Sam_> i can see the files on this computer adn use them
[08:06] <orbin> optix: after your last post? :P
[08:06] <bullgard4> nailbiter: Using Midnight Commander, I did explore the /proc file hierarchy several times before. I also peeked at /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info. Still I do not know how this connects with the 'battery' driver.

[08:06] <Jordan_U> huey, rm -f ~.trash I *think* ( I don't ever use the trash :)
[08:06] <variant> Sam_: just enable samba on the server
[08:06] <Sam_> samba?
[08:06] <Jordan_U> huey, rm -rf ~.trash I *think* ( I don't ever use the trash :)
[08:06] <huey> Thanks Jordan_U
[08:06] <Sam_> just in the poptop config enable samba

[08:07] <optix> ok thnx i wily trry
[08:07] <monaleilani> i keep typing make and it tells me: no rule to make target 'hal_exports.h', needed by 'gen_exports'. Stop.
[08:07] <Sam_> so i need to enable samba in teh pptpd server
[08:07] <monaleilani> make: *** [all]  Error 2
[08:07] <Sam_> i dont have the samba server isntalled on my webmin, so im installing that now
[08:07] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, You need to ./configure first
[08:08] <optix> what is the best linux out now?
[08:08] <monaleilani> okay
[08:08] <variant> optix: thats a stupid question in an ubuntu channel
[08:08] <variant> which is asked suprisingly often
[08:08] <homanj> optix: what variant said
[08:08] <homanj> optix: i'd say whatever you feel comfortable with.
[08:08] <variant> optix: obviously, ubuntu
[08:08] <variant> :P
[08:09] <Frogzoo> optix: there is no best - it's which distro best meets your needs
[08:09] <Sam_> ok so i need to install samba server and config it to work with Pptpd
[08:09] <Sam_> ??
[08:09] <optix> coz im having problem using ubuntu
[08:09] <optix> :(
[08:09] <genii> optix It depends what you want to do with it. for normal people Ubuntu is about the most friendly and does what they need. For people that run servers, there are other types like Debian and RedHat for instance
[08:09] <h4wk0> optix; red hat ftw.
[08:09] <pr0tekk> my pony ate my ubuntu disk
[08:09] <varka> bullgard4: http://www.oreilly.de/german/freebooks/rlinux3ger/ch057.html
[08:09] <nailbiter> bullgard4: What exactly are you looking for? Normally, the stuff in /proc is used mainly by programs, not humans to talk to low-level drivers
[08:10] <variant> Sam_: if you have a working vpn then you don't need to change samba at all, just use the default config
[08:10] <Frogzoo> optix: perhaps if you described your problem people might help
[08:10] <Sam_> but samba i not installed
[08:10] <Sam_> people can connect to vpn fine
[08:10] <variant> Sam_: install samba, as you already know
[08:10] <monaleilani> ./configure didn't work..
[08:10] <monaleilani> Wow, I suck.
[08:10] <optix> Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[08:10] <optix> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

[08:12] <variant> t94xr-lappy: -R

[08:14] <Sam_> are you supposed to lose internet connection adn only communicate with teh vpn
[08:14] <Sam_> like you cannot go on website through IE or FX
[08:15] <genii> optix Many games for windows run in ubuntu (using wine) but if they use something like directX it can be a headache to configure them properly. also they do not neccesarily run as quickly as you would like

[08:15] <kon> hello, i have to question: how can i make my nvidia raid5 array work (it's asking for raid45 kernel module but it isnt there) and how do i enable PAE for 4GB RAM? i have downloaded the 7.04 x86 installer.
[08:15] <optix> bro i try to install and follow all instruction installing wine but always fail
[08:15] <optix> :(
[08:15] <optix> no luck

[08:15] <nokorit_> how reliable is ubuntu as a serer?
[08:16] <nokorit_> server*
[08:16] <leninIdebian> @optix: did you install the windows lib stuff?
[08:16] <variant> nokorit_: as any other gnu/linux distro
[08:16] <Red15> nokorit_:  about as stable as any other linux
[08:16] <Red15> lol variant
[08:16] <nailbiter> Sam_: When the Windows client connects to the VPN, _all_ their traffic goes through the VPN connection. So if the client cannot connect to the Internet, it means the VPN server isn't forwarding their traffic properly
[08:16] <genii> nokorit_: Since it is based on Debian, it is fairly stable
[08:16] <nailbiter> Sam_: You can fix this by enabling NAT on the VPNserver
[08:16] <trpr> nokorit_: i have heard good things. personally i use debian sarge for my servers
[08:16] <elazar_> Beryl get's stuck after a while I'm using it. However if I'm not using the computer, it seems to be stable.
[08:16] <nokorit_> how is it compare to redhat?
[08:16] <Sam_> ok thank you
[08:16] <Sam_> do you know how to do that with
[08:17] <Sam_> poptop
[08:17] <pr0tekk> So, now that my pony ate ubuntu, say i had sex with the pony, would it make ubuntuponies?
[08:17] <elazar_> There's no particular effect I'm using, it's just being dead
[08:17] <Sam_> or pptpd
[08:17] <Sam_> enable NAT?
[08:17] <variant> nokorit_: try it and se
[08:17] <leninIdebian> nokorit_: if you dont need the newest pakages use debian
[08:17] <nailbiter> Sam_: You can install the 'ipmasq' package to turn on NAT. That's all you need to do
[08:17] <Red15> nokorit_:  we at work switched recently from CentOS to ubuntu server can't say I regret the ease
[08:17] <variant> pr0tekk: that is rather offtopic (and innapropriate)
[08:17] <Sam_> ipmasq
[08:17] <Sam_> is that like apt-get ipmasq?
[08:17] <Sam_> apt-get install ipmasq?
[08:17] <nailbiter> Sam_: That's right. "apt-get install ipmasq".
[08:17] <leninIdebian> nokorit_: otherwise ubuntu is a good thing
[08:17] <Sam_> kk thxs
[08:17] <genii> nokorit_: It depends on what the server is mainly used for. If standard type LAMP server, then they are about the same. It is just a matter of preference. Ubuntu and debian use a different way to install packages which some prefer to the rpm system in redhat
[08:18] <optix> i didn't install windows lib stuff. . aand how to install it? :)

[08:26] <kuma__> variant: i ran both commands and nothing happened, i think it might be a hardware problem
[08:26] <bullgard4> nailbiter: Thank you, anyway, for guiding me further.

[08:26] <Myrtti> I'm just about to get annoyed

[08:28] <pyrohotdog> variant: thank you. :)
[08:29] <variant> v3n0m`: at what point?
[08:29] <v3n0m`> variant: the problem is detailed here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=445664
[08:29] <AD|Sleep> Ill stop spamming usless things to the channel when you stop spamming the channel about me spamming the channel o_O
[08:29] <pr0tekk> How do I turn on ubuntu?

[08:29] <AD|Sleep> pr0tekk
[08:29] <AD|Sleep> beat it...

[08:30] <Myrtti> ok, this is about the last warning.

[08:30] <kon> i have read the RAID info but i don't understand how i should make a module when i do not yet have a partition
[08:30] <pyrohotdog> can  someone make thhe executive decision to boot him?
[08:30] <AD|Sleep> Can anyone see what im typing?
[08:30] <pyrohotdog> :)
[08:31] <varka> thx
[08:31] <zcat[1] > excellent.
[08:31] <lobster> lv 5? I run everything on rc 3...
[08:31] <leninIdebian> thx
[08:31] <|_ocke> heh
[08:31] <Madpilot> Myrtti, multilingual /remove messages, even. Classy.
[08:31] <variant> v3n0m`: ok, when you boot up switch imediately to a virtual terminal (ctrl alt f1)
[08:31] <|_ocke> i thought rc2 was normal runlevel
[08:31] <variant> v3n0m`: from there run this command "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[08:31] <Myrtti> Madpilot: it is, isn't it :-)
[08:31] <variant> v3n0m`: that should speed up the command line a bit based on the issues you're having and we can go from there
[08:32] <Myrtti> I'd paint the kick messages pink and attach lace into them, were it possible
[08:32] <lobster> I'd expect that sort of empirical logic from you, Locke
[08:32] <mamoru1> Okay.  I installed....again.... and again....it didn't work.
[08:32] <|_ocke> lobster, i am not john
[08:33] <[uplink] > HELLO!
[08:33] <|_ocke> and i have no ties to governmentalis,
[08:33] <|_ocke> and i have no ties to governmentalism
[08:33] <v3n0m`> ok, but I could easily just have gone into recovery mode (command line) which also ignores the gui
[08:33] <elazar_> Is there a nice program to display the load of the computer, memory usage etc. in the gnome interface?
[08:33] <v3n0m`> variant: which I have done
[08:33] <Madpilot> elazar_, System Monitor
[08:33] <variant> v3n0m`: ok, run sudo X -configure
[08:33] <elazar_> Madpilot: is that the one which comes with gnome?
[08:33] <v3n0m`> variant: ok
[08:33] <Madpilot> elazar_, System->Admin->System Monitor - there's a panel applet too
[08:33] <Madpilot> elazar_, yes
[08:34] <elazar_> Madpilot: where's the panel applet?
[08:34] <v3n0m`> variant: I'm going to have to re-install though
[08:34] <elazar_> I want something I can always see
[08:34] <variant> v3n0m`: why?
[08:34] <homanj> elazar_: add it to the panel
[08:34] <Madpilot> elazar_, right-click on either of your panels, choose "Add To Panel", select System Monitor. Once it appears, right click on it to configure it how you want it
[08:34] <Madpilot> lobster, kill the /away msg spam, thainks
[08:34] <v3n0m`> variant: because I deleted the partitions,.. but I won't be able to talk to you after I re-install because I only have one computer and all irc clients i've used on linux so far require gui
[08:35] <variant> v3n0m`: use irssi
[08:35] <variant> v3n0m`: it's a gui (ncurses) client that works from a command prompt
[08:35] <v3n0m`> variant: thanks, I will look that up
[08:36] <pyrohotdog> v3n0m`: bitchx is a nice console irc client as well
[08:36] <variant> v3n0m`: look me up if you run into problems. will be here off and on most of the day as I am at work (*lol*)
[08:36] <variant> v3n0m`: the live cd comes with irssi afaik
[08:36] <chief__> Hi. I've never had this kind of problem before. When I click the "Turn Off" button, it just goes to black screen and won't power off unless I press the power button for several seconds.
[08:36] <v3n0m`> variant: since I have to reinstall I just want to mention, that I could not install from the alternate iso (because it stalls midway on a blue screen), and that I could not install via safe-graphics mode (see http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/9832/2nderrorscreenlinuxsaferf1.png), and so I will retry installing from the regular live-cd gui.. ok?
[08:37] <variant> v3n0m`: yeah i saw the images in your forum post

[08:39] <^CrispY^> quit
[08:39] <^CrispY^> exit
[08:39] <kon> please someone give me a hint, when i try to activate my raid5 on feisty it needs the raid45 module but it is not available, but raid456 is.
[08:39] <cwraig> join #gnome
[08:40] <blind> variant: im looking for something to turn down the bass/up the treble. not adjust the volume.
[08:40] <v3n0m`> variant: I will join you hopefully next on chatzilla for the firefox on the live-cd and then afterwards on irssi

[06:26] <sivik> livecd6ten, default is good
[06:27] <livecd6ten> i read that dell 6400 frezzes when booting
[06:27] <EightEleven> Molluck: Did any of the other toshiba packages help?
[06:27] <slinky_> Does Ubuntu 64-bit support ATI Crossfire cards?
[06:27] <livecd6ten> but if u change where grub is installed it will be fine
[06:27] <Molluck> EightEleven, i didn't see any, and i was unable to add any more repositories.
[06:27] <slimz> im trying to run an xdmcp session using cygwin on winxp, i see the login screen for ubuntu, but when i logon, nothing happens, only a brown screen, is there a step i might of missed?
[06:27] <Molluck> EightEleven, settings > repositories lead me to a dead end.
[06:28] <lou_> default should be fine
[06:28] <EightEleven> Are you using Ubuntu 6.10 or 7.04?

[06:32] <walrus> PriceChild: jpjacobs: thx
[06:32] <jpjacobs> np
[06:32] <timmay> Frogzoo: I see, I copy/pasted the primary one and didnt change the root= param, I see it is set to UUID= and then a GUID, I am assuming that is the ID of the drive. I tried changing to /dev/hdb1 but that didnt work..
[06:32] <EightEleven> Molluck: No problem, under settings>repositories, you will probably see a list with 5 options, right?
[06:33] <yeniklasor> Hi, when system is booting I want to disable splash screen and add system information to it. How can I do this?
[06:33] <EightEleven> Molluck: And an option to select your local server
[06:34] <Molluck> EightEleven, it says, downloadable from the internet... then 4 options. another one that says "source code" and beneath that is a dropdown list button.
[06:34] <sivik> what am i doing wrong to make java not work, i installed the plugin and its still not working trying to play gemes at games.yahoo.com

[06:41] <beni> when i want to burn a dvd, the error message is input/output problem...
[06:42] <sivik> rambo3: it works there, but not at yahoo games
[06:42] <khin> and have 'libpng12-0' installed. but it says it cant install 'libpng12-dev' because it is dependent on 'libpng12-0'. but it says i have this installed!
[06:42] <sivik> the page that i pasted shows the error i'm getting
[06:42] <sivik> khin: trying to install enlightenment are we?
[06:42] <Molluck> i love ubuntu's scrollbar.  if you scroll and your cursor deviates too far away, it does not stop scrolling like windows xp's scrollbar. <3
[06:43] <sea> yeah molluck its awesome
[06:43] <rambo3> sivik, ok it might be some secuirty thing .  you have java console in firefox that you can check . but if it is java security i dont know how to solve it
[06:44] <rambo3> sivik, Edit -> error console
[06:44] <michup> hi, ive problem with performance after booting ubuntu edgy from CD
[06:44] <sea> are you sure you installed JRE 1.5
[06:44] <michup> some suggestion what may cause that sittuation?
[06:45] <truz_`24> Is there a good guide on compiling kernel modules in ubuntu?  I tried to compile a basic kernel module and keep getting errors and the like.
[06:45] <sivik> rambo3, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21456/, thats what i get, and then i click on trust and that other page is what happens when i go
[06:45] <truz_`24> Apparently kernel interfaces are different?
[06:45] <delta9thc1> why you're using edgy? it's old! before anyone using breezy,right now edgy,mah...
[06:45] <EightEleven> Molluck: How do you usually adjust the brightness of your laptop?
[06:45] <Molluck> EightEleven, via windows xp.. using the radeon gamma adjuster.
[06:46] <sea> what? no one likes Feisty?
[06:46] <khin> anyway, basically im just trying to install gtk+. but when i try to run configure it says it needs updated versions of a bunch of stuff, and of that, what exists in synaptic is dependent on other stuff
[06:46] <sea> Feisty is the best evarrr
[06:46] <Molluck> EightEleven, having more control over colors is better than just setting the brightness output lower...
[06:46] <khin> is there some simpler way to do this
[06:46] <delta9thc1> i'm using feisty !
[06:47] <Molluck> EightEleven, perhaps i should submit my question to a forum and wait for a reply?
[06:47] <rambo3> sivik, i dont know , you might try to ask somone else or in #firefox on their irc server
[06:47] <sivik> rambo3: what is their server
[06:47] <beni> did anyone solve an input/output error problem while burning dvds?
[06:48] <sea> I have to wonder why fwcutter worked on feisty and not on Dapper, when i ran it on Dapper it said i had broadcom 4318, but Feisty and fwcutter says i have 4311 airforce
[06:48] <rambo3> i'dd guess  irc.mozilla.org
[06:48] <sea> my guess is that Yahoo detects you are using *nix
[06:49] <EightEleven> Molluck: Did you try rakeer's suggestion to type in terminal window: xgamma 1  ?
[06:49] <Molluck> Molluck, people are gonna have to start typing my name ... i just ignore text that isn't directed to me.
[06:50] <Molluck> EightEleven, so no, I did not try it because i did not see it.
[06:50] <EightEleven> Molluck: rakeer suggested to open a terminal and then type xgamma -gamma 2
[06:51] <Molluck> EightEleven, it worked, but i need to make it darker.
[06:52] <beni> i tried to burn a data dvd, but it says input/output error. what could be the problem?
[06:52] <EightEleven> Molluck: Okay, then try xgamma -gamma 0.5
[06:52] <Molluck> EightEleven, ooh nifty ^^
[06:52] <Molluck> EightEleven, it seems to be, the whites are too white and the darks are too dark
[06:52] <Quintin> beni, have you tried again with a different blank disc?
[06:53] <beni> yes
[06:53] <khin> actually, what i need is the gtk+ development files. so trying to install them off synaptic says i need (among other things) libcairo2-dev. this in turn needs, for one, libpng12-dev
[06:53] <nitrocks> how do i automatically mount another hard disk on boot?
[06:53] <beni> i also tried several burning programs
[06:53] <nitrocks> in 7.04
[06:53] <EightEleven> Molluck: Too bad rakeer is already offline, maybe he knows other nice tools too
[06:53] <jpjacobs> nitrocks, i guess it already does mount everything it finds
[06:54] <Molluck> EightEleven, well this is a hundred times more usable now that the gamma is less!
[06:54] <Molluck> EightEleven, thanks for the help :)
[06:54] <delta9thc1> do you have tried brasero also?
[06:54] <bubux> i need tabs in gedit to ident selected code instead of replacing all selected text with a tab.. please help me
[06:54] <delta9thc1> but i ever use k3b,is the best for me :-)
[06:55] <kendale> hello
[06:55] <ImBrian> bubux: apt-get install scite
[06:55] <EightEleven> Molluck: You're welcome
[06:55] <delta9thc1> i've sorry
[06:55] <kendale> hi i need som help with my wireless
[06:55] <Molluck> Is there a way that I can enable 3d capability in Ubuntu 7.04?
[06:55] <bubux> ImBrian:  thnx but i already have scite and i prefer gedit.. i would like to use TAB keys to ident in gedit
[06:56] <ImBrian> bubux: I see.  I don't know that it's possible in GEdit (been a while since I've used it).  If it's a simple one-time task and you have scite, I know it does it.
[06:56] <Gerro> Anyone about that is really good with webcams?
[06:56] <Henica> Hey guys. It seems that after watching a movie, my screen resolution has changed drasticly. Is there any way I can fix this without restarting? I've got too many files open and I don't want to lose them. :p
[06:57] <bubux> ImBrian: thank you for your help
[06:57] <Gerro> Henica: do xrandr -s heightxwidth or something
[06:57] <EightEleven> Molluck: My Radeon card was automatically working
[06:57] <sea> system/preferences/screen resolution ?
[06:57] <dhtechs> Henica:  system.preferences.screen resolution
[06:57] <Henica> I have a custome set resolution, as ubuntu doesn't like my video card.
[06:57] <Molluck> EightEleven, not here. i think it is because i am using a laptop.
[06:57] <Gerro> EightEleven: working or working working as in able to render 3d?
[06:58] <sea> my radeon worked too but i went ahead and installed the restricted driver
[06:58] <kendale> hi i need some help with my wireless on an acer 3000
[06:58] <jsd> good morning.  all my audio is coming out of the headphone jack and the pc speaker.  any way to shut the pc speaker up?  seems like the audio devices are the same in the sound control panel - there's no way to address just one.
[06:58] <sea> well it renders 3d witht he restricted drivers
[06:58] <ImBrian> jsd: which sound panel?
[06:58] <Gerro> sea: through mesa right?
[06:58] <Enselic_> jsd: sudo make install gnome-alsa-mixer
[06:58] <Enselic_> jsd: there you have a bunch of audio sliders and on/off buttons
[06:58] <Henica> Ehh. I'll just restart my PC.
[06:59] <EightEleven> Able to render 3D i think. Beryl was working and ufoai and xmoto also respond well
[06:59] <ImBrian> jsd: what Enselic_ said ;)
[06:59] <jsd> ok i'll try it
[06:59] <sea> i clicked 'manage restricted drivers' and there it was so i went ahead and installed it
[06:59] <EightEleven> And I'm also using a laptop
[06:59] <Gerro> Henica: wait
[06:59] <dyrne> jsd: i had a similar problem but dont remember what i changed in alsamixer
[06:59] <sea> Im on an HP dv5000 media center laptop
[06:59] <dhtechs> Henica:  system.preferences.screen resolution
[06:59] <Gerro> Henica: do ctrl alt f1 to get command prompt then do randr -s 1024x768 if you need root do sudo su then enter pass
[06:59] <Gerro> Henica: ctrl alt f7 for graphics mode
[07:00] <lou__> henica alt+ctrl+backspace
[07:00] <jsd> jsd@testing:/usr$ sudo make install gnome-alsa-mixer
[07:00] <jsd> Password:
[07:00] <jsd> make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[07:00] <kendale> hi i am a noob do i get in line for hel?
[07:00] <kendale> p
[07:00] <Gerro> jsd: don't forget to do ./configure and make before make install
[07:00] <PriceChild> kendale, Just ask your question and someone will answer if they know the answer :)
[07:00] <dhtechs> kendale: just ask
[07:00] <kendale> ok thanks
[07:01] <kendale> i have a broadcom wireless card and i screwd it up and it is not woring anymore
[07:01] <kneeki> Anyone know of a good torrent client other than BitTorrent (that came with my Ubuntu install)? I was unable to find uTorrent in the lists =(
[07:02] <ImBrianJ> kneeki: azarius (sp?) is popular - a java app IIRC
[07:02] <jsd> i installed it with synaptic and now i am golden.  thanks!
[07:02] <EightEleven> kendale: So it was working before?
[07:02] <Gerro> kendale: do ndiswrapper -l to list which driver its using and modprobe ndiswrapper to load driver up
[07:02] <kneeki> ImBrianJ, Thanks bud, I'll check into that. =)
[07:02] <kendale> can someone tell me what i need to how to set up my wireless i have tried the fourms and still no dice
[07:02] <kendale> yes
[07:02] <Svenstaro> kneeki, tried automatix's torrent client? I don't know what's it called but it supposedly pretty good. Automatix provides Azureus and some other Utorrent like.
[07:02] <kendale> it was working
[07:02] <ImBrianJ> http://azureus.sourceforge.net/
[07:03] <PriceChild> !automatix | Svenstaro kneeki
[07:03] <ubotu> Svenstaro kneeki: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:03] <dyrne> kneeki: deluge is much less resource intensive than az
[07:03] <dyrne> kneeki: even ktorrent
[07:03] <EightEleven> kendale: What did you do just before it stopped working?
[07:03] <Svenstaro> =(
[07:03] <chamunks> would someone know how to mount a cd image as if it were a regular cd in feisty?
[07:03] <ImBrianJ> kneeki: I shoudl preface that I'm not a torrent person.  What little I do, I use the cli torrent client
[07:03] <dyrne> chamunks: mount -o loop file.iso /directory
[07:04] <Svenstaro> Anyway, I meant deluge know that you mention it.
[07:04] <Smygis> !WorksForMe
[07:04] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[07:04] <ImBrianJ> but I know Azureus is popular
[07:04] <kneeki> Thanks guys, I'll look into all of those. =)
[07:04] <Znortfl> Hey ubuntu people, how do I unpack ".tar.Z" archives? Ark doesnt support it, apparently
[07:04] <ImBrianJ> there's another one I used in Gnome that was good (torrent).  Freeloader I think
[07:05] <ImBrianJ> kneeki: another good option (if you're Gnome): http://www.downloadsquad.com/2006/08/21/freeloader-bittorrent-client-for-gnome/
[07:05] <ImBrianJ> I stopped using it only because I switched to XFCE
[07:05] <dyrne> Zambezi: the Z is a unix compress i think so uncompress then tar xfv file.tar should work
[07:05] <mIgUeL_sAn> i've already installed ubuntu 7.04, does it have and apache and php installed in my system?
[07:05] <sea> how could i change to xfce
[07:05] <rambo3> mIgUeL_sAn,ask ubotu
[07:05] <kendale> eight eleven i sent you a prvate message
[07:05] <ImBrianJ> sea: apt-get install xubuntu-bas
[07:05] <sea> miguel open a terminal and type apache
[07:06] <kneeki> ImBrianJ, I am using gnome, thanks =)
[07:06] <sea> thanks brian
[07:06] <ImBrianJ> xubuntu-base rather
[07:06] <ImBrianJ> sea: you're familiar with xfce?
[07:06] <sea> no but ive seen it
[07:06] <mIgUeL_sAn> ubotu: i've already installed ubuntu 7.04, does it have and apache and php installed in my system?
[07:06] <rambo3> !lamp | mIgUeL_sAn
[07:06] <dyrne> sea: ? xfce is gtk like gnome so the gnome themes will work. was that your question?
[07:06] <ubotu> mIgUeL_sAn: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[07:06] <ImBrianJ> sea: know that it'll be a pretty big install, it's an entire desktop environment
[07:06] <sea> mine says apache is not installed
[07:06] <sea> so your is probably not installed either
[07:06] <ImBrianJ> sea: read about the "official" xfce version of ubuntu here: http://www.xubuntu.org/
[07:07] <sea> i used the feisty dvd
[07:07] <sea> ok
[07:07] <Sgm> hi all
[07:07] <chamunks> dyrne, will that be just as good as a virtual cd drive in windows?
[07:07] <EightEleven> kendale: Sorry, I did not receive it
[07:07] <kendale> how do i start privete chat
[07:07] <EightEleven> Are you logged in?

[07:08] <kendale> not sure
[07:08] <kendale> i am chiatting
[07:08] <mrclean> Trying to update /and/or update a ubuntu 6 system and getting error:  " Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/f/firefox/firefox-gnome-support_1.5.dfsg+<IP_ADDRESS>-ubuntu0.6.06_i386.deb"
[07:08] <mrclean> or several like it.
[07:08] <gaten> yimmmy: you need to be specific about your problem
[07:08] <EightEleven> kendale: IRC will by default not send private messages from unregistered users
[07:08] <mrclean> I think it's ubuntu 6.....
[07:08] <Sgm> does anyone know something about audio problems in feisty with an intel 82801g (ich7) chip?gnome and esound
[07:08] <kendale> ok
[07:08] <EightEleven> And yes, this view is sometimes a bit messy
[07:08] <yimmmy> wine is not working i click on the app and it dosent do any thing
[07:08] <Molluck> I have a ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M IGP -- is that going to be a problem for enabling 3d capability?
[07:09] <kendale> where do i register
[07:09] <gaten> yimmmy: try running wine "program name" from the terminal
[07:09] <Sgm> does anyone know something about audio problems in feisty with an intel 82801g (ich7) chip?gnome and esound
[07:09] <mrclean> how do I find the version number?
[07:09] <CheshireViking> yimmy, for help with wine, you might be better asking in  #wine
[07:09] <ethereality> kendale: do you need to register your nick for IRC?
[07:09] <gaten> yimmmy: and make sure you are in the directory that the program is installed in
[07:09] <tanath> need help. since i upgraded to feisty my scanner doesn't work
[07:10] <Molluck> can somebody help me enable 3d capability with my laptop?
[07:10] <kendale> yes
[07:10] <Sgm> molluck have you Googled enough?
[07:10] <tanath> xsane says no devices available
[07:10] <ethereality> kendale: type /msg nickserv help register
[07:10] <ethereality> i think.
[07:10] <Molluck> Sgm, probably not :(
[07:10] <Quintin> Molluck, what laptop?  what gfx card?
[07:10] <EightEleven> kendale: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration
[07:10] <Molluck> Quintin, it is a toshiba satellite laptop.  ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M IGP
[07:10] <Sgm> does anyone knows something about audio problems in feisty with an intel 82801g (ich7) chip?gnome and esound
[07:11] <ethereality> or that, except type 'register <password> <email address>' ... i'm not sure of the format, which is why i suggest messaging 'help register'
[07:11] <Quintin> Molluck, that card has drivers from ati that you can use.  do "apt-cache search xorg-video | grep fglrx"
[07:11] <tanath> anyone?
[07:11] <Molluck> Quintin, attempting now.
[07:11] <gaten> tanath: when you plug in the scanner, what does dmesg tell you
[07:11] <kendale> i will register and come back
[07:12] <EightEleven> kendale: You don't need to leave for that
[07:12] <tanath> gaten, well, it's a printer & scanner. prints ok, but has lost scanner functionality
[07:12] <kendale> i know i will be reading how to do it in the web i wont disconnect
[07:13] <hydan> how big is the default 7.04 iso download?
[07:13] <sivik> has anyone else having problems with games.yahoo.com and the java applet for firefox in fiesty
[07:13] <sivik> hydan: just under 750 mb
[07:13] <hydan> ooh
[07:13] <gaten> tanath: beyond checking to see if dmesg reports a problem, i dont know, ive never hooked a scanner up to linux before
[07:13] <hydan> thanks
[07:13] <EightEleven> good luck
[07:13] <Molluck> Quintin, it says "xorg-driver-fglrx - Video driver for ATI graphics accelerators"
[07:13] <khin> is there some reason why these development packages don't (apparently) have valid release packages? im trying to install libgtk2.0-dev and having issues
[07:13] <sea> can i enable repositories from the terminal?
[07:14] <sivik> sea: yes
[07:14] <dr_willis> sea,  you can edit the sources.list file  with an editor..so yes.
[07:14] <sivik> sea: go into your /etc/apt/sources.list file and add them there
[07:14] <sea> oh ok
[07:14] <sivik> dr_willis, can you help me with some java issues
[07:14] <dr_willis> !apt
[07:14] <Quintin> Molluck, yea, go figure.  install it :-P  then in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , change "ati" or "radeon" or whatever to "fglrx" under the Driver section , then do /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:14] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[07:14] <sivik> !ati
[07:14] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:14] <Molluck> Quintin, how to install?
[07:14] <datrigg> anyone in here got SLI to work in ubuntu?
[07:15] <dr_willis> sivik,  proberly not. leaving for work in 10 min..  id have to say yuse 'java --version' to be sure you are using the actual SUN java - not the alternatives. for a starter however.
[07:15] <Quintin> Molluck, sudo apt-get install <package-name>
[07:15] <sea> dr_willis i had the same problem, it said java was installed but it wasnt or it was not JRE
[07:16] <jetroo> ive installed u6.10 on laptop and now dwnlding the updates (169 of them!) i have the 7.04 disc but it wont install cuz the x-server breaks or something. should i be able the upgrade to 7.04 after i update 6.10? or will it break after upgrade
[07:16] <sivik> Unrecognized option: --version
[07:16] <sivik> Could not create the Java virtual machine.
[07:16] <chamunks> will this command "mount -o loop file.iso /directory"  mount a cd image just the same as if it were burnt to a cd??
[07:16] <kendale> eighteleven am i register now
[07:16] <sivik> jetroo: u will have to fix the xserver after you install the newer version
[07:16] <Molluck> Quintin, I just checked synaptics for fglrx, it is marked green.
[07:16] <sea> jetroo  the CD wouldnt work right for me i had gotten the DVD of feisty and viola
[07:16] <dr_willis> ret -version then. (logicial eh?) :)
[07:16] <colbert> how do I burn an iso with a .mds file ???
[07:17] <sivik> dr_willis, i have 1.4.2-02
[07:17] <jetroo> how will i do that, i wont be connected to internet
[07:17] <dr_willis> colbert,  convert it to iso. but you will lose the special data/features that may be in the mds.
[07:17] <Quintin> Molluck, yea, well if you're a big pansy you can do it that way too, whatever.  just install it :P
[07:17] <dr_willis> java version "1.4.2"
[07:17] <dr_willis> gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu5)
[07:17] <Molluck> Quintin, it is already installed doofus.
[07:17] <dr_willis> seems that I am using the Gnu java. not the sun one - on this box.
[07:17] <sivik> jetroo: do something like dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and use the vesa driver until u can fix it
[07:18] <sivik> jetroo: but u can get on the net via CLI, its called lynx
[07:18] <colbert> dr_willis: i already have file.iso and file.mds, together.. how do I burn them?
[07:18] <tanath> gaten, i turned it off & on. here's dmesg output: http://paste.uni.cc/15611
[07:18] <khin> actually i was doing something stupid, never mind it worked
[07:18] <Gat0rvean> I'm trying to install a desktop theme, or in my mind, I want to change the window borders, default login screen and fonts and stuff, I've read the article on the Wiki, but when I try and download something, it tells me it's the wrong file type, can anyone help?
[07:18] <sivik> colbert; burn the iso in k3b via burn image
[07:18] <Molluck> Quintin, since it is already installed, doesn't that mean i already have it?
[07:18] <dr_willis> colbert,  k3b and other tools can burn .iso files. but if its a copy protected game cd. the game proberly wont work once burnt
[07:18] <aceoflobster> hi guys, if i do /etc/init.d/networks restart will that reload drivers or just the network settings?
[07:19] <Quintin> Molluck, yes, but it's not being used by X.  edit that conf file as I instructed you to do please
[07:19] <jetroo> i dont know any of this stuff, im linux beginner. but i have in built wifi on laptop. im afraid it wont work after i upgrade
[07:19] <Molluck> Quintin, roger
[07:19] <Yggdrasil> ljl are you in
[07:19] <Quintin> aceoflobster, that just starts and stops networking, it will not reload your drivers.  If you have a need to do that, you'd have to rmmod and then insmod them
[07:19] <zer> Whats the easiest method to watch use dvb-t?
[07:19] <aceoflobster> quintin: thanks
[07:20] <Amadeo> Anyone know why the Ubuntu installer is detecting my IDE drives as SCSI drives?
[07:20] <gordboy> anyone else think that the default feisty freetype library is deficient ? i made a new .deb drop-in for libfreetype6. i have proper rendering now. woohoo
[07:20] <Molluck> Quintin, it says I do not have the permissions necessary.
[07:21] <pteron> Hi! How to enable write on a automaticly mounted NTFS-partition?
[07:21] <Quintin> Molluck, right, you don't.  You have to be root.  So use sudo or gksu
[07:21] <itnas> hi all there, may anybody answer a question regarding terminal size when controlled from .bashrc?
[07:21] <Quintin> pteron, you'll need ntfs-3g or simialr.  If you want to share data between windows and linux, ext3 is a better solution
[07:21] <bspindler> I need help! you know the normal Ctrl-Alt-Backspace that restarts X ?  Mine got mapped to something else, I need to change it back, how can I?
[07:21] <Dame> Is it possible to install ubuntu 6.06 server on VirtualBox?
[07:21] <Quintin> bspindler, That's in /etc/X11/xorg.conf .  Saerch for "zap"
[07:21] <lbci_irc> /leave
[07:22] <bspindler> Quintin: k, one sec
[07:22] <Quintin> Dame, no idea what that is but it should be possible.  works with vmware or qemu or whatever
[07:22] <XBehave> is this channel at all linked to the ubuntu forums
[07:22] <tanath> need help. since i upgraded to feisty my scanner doesn't work. xsane says 'no devices available'. can anyone help?
[07:22] <bspindler> Quintin: pattern not found
[07:22] <Quintin> XBehave, no
[07:22] <Quintin> bspindler, man xorg.conf
[07:22] <bspindler> I thought it would be in gconf-editor but I can't find it
[07:23] <pteron> Quintin, linux is installed on a ext3-partition, but all my stuff is on a large ntfs-partition. There is no simple way to enable write?
[07:23] <Quintin> pteron, no.
[07:23] <Molluck> Quintin, it says it is already fglrx.
[07:23] <Dame> Quintin, it freeze after "booting kernel" message is displayed
[07:23] <XBehave> cant he just install ntfs-3g or a something like that
[07:23] <Quintin> Molluck, open a terminal, and type "glxinfo | grep rendering"
[07:23] <Wipster> how can I get windows to read ext3?
[07:23] <Molluck> Quintin, beneath "section "device""
[07:23] <Quintin> XBehave, he said "easy"
[07:24] <gordboy> pteron, Quintin : what's wrong with ntfs-3g ?
[07:24] <codecaine> how you change the port for remote desktop?
[07:24] <Quintin> Wipster, use the IFS driver for ext3.  maybe if you helped yourself on google you'd find it
[07:24] <Quintin> Wipster, with "ext3 windows" or a search similarly obscure and hard to guess.
[07:24] <Molluck> Quintin, "direct rendering: Yes"
[07:24] <Wipster> Quintin, yeh thanks man just found it
[07:24] <pteron> gordboy, nothing i havnt tried it. I justed wanted to hear if there was a simple way, but ill use ntfs-3g instead
[07:24] <XBehave> Wipster:  it can read ext2 with drivers i think google should be your friend, ext2 is ext3 without jouraling and so it will see ext3 drives just not journal changes
[07:25] <Quintin> Molluck, then you have 3d support.  try "glxgears"  does it run smoothly?  try the 3d screensavers.
[07:25] <gordboy> pteron, ntfs-3g is simple. a lot simpler than trying to configure ext2fsd from within windows
[07:25] <pteron> There is not problem using (reading/writing) on a ntfs partition with linux? like dataloss or stuff like that
[07:25] <Quintin> Wipster, np
[07:25] <daedra> HELP I have lost graphical display of my 7.04 Ubuntu desktop!
[07:25] <jetroo> if i try to reconfigure the xserver-xorg after upgrade will the vesa driver be available to me? in 7.04
[07:25] <pteron> gordboy, can i apt-get it?
[07:25] <Quintin> daedra, what did you change before that happened?
[07:25] <Quintin> jetroo, yes
[07:26] <Molluck> Quintin, oh no wonder!  the previous version of ubuntu enabled 3d screensavers by default.  they were off in ubuntu 7.04
[07:26] <gordboy> pteron, yes you can
[07:26] <daedra> Quintin: I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:26] <pteron> gordboy, thx m8. Ill try
[07:26] <Quintin> Molluck, what 3d stuff are you trying to do exactly?  cause glxinfo says you have direct rendering... shouldn't be problems
[07:26] <tanath> need help. since i upgraded to feisty my scanner doesn't work. xsane says 'no devices available'
[07:26] <jetroo> ok, and if i select it. would i then type in restart gdm or something like that?
[07:26] <Molluck> Quintin, yes it runs very smoothly.  thanks for the help
[07:26] <Quintin> daedra, Ok, then what?  do you get a blank screen, or an error message?
[07:26] <DShepherd> I have an intergrated camera. Is there an app that I can use so that I capture pictures with my camera?
[07:26] <Quintin> Molluck, any time
[07:26] <XBehave> pteron: last time i used an ntfs partition was about a year ago and there were lots of bugs but it worked for me no coruption however some people had serious problems
[07:26] <jetroo> would that load the log in screen
[07:27] <Molluck> Quintin, well, I was unable to activate 3d chess... and that lead me to believe nothin worked 3d
[07:27] <Quintin> jetroo, /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:27] <Molluck> Quintin, silly ubuntu!!! hah
[07:27] <Quintin> Molluck, oh.

[07:29] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[07:30] <Quintin> daedra, this will kill irssi, since it takes the system to single-user mode..
[07:30] <daedra> Quintin: isn't that suspend
[07:30] <daedra> oh ok

[07:31] <jpjacobs> codecaine, and don't repeat

[07:33] <DShepherd> !sound | Molluck
[07:33] <ubotu> Molluck: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[07:33] <DShepherd> Molluck: that might help..

[07:51] <michup> dyrne: and without downloading another CD is it possible to run basic installation CD in text mode and install system from there?
[07:51] <jpjacobs> Timmytom, what is that?
[07:51] <Molluck> DShepherd, I guess i should always search the forums :S
[07:51] <dyrne> michup: the livecd if that is what you have does not include the text installer.
[07:51] <michup> dyrne: this computer hanges after i click on installation icon on desktop
[07:51] <Molluck> DShepherd, any solutions?
[07:52] <DShepherd> Molluck: yes you should.. let me get the link
[07:52] <Timmytom> jpjacobs: File manager/browser for windows (Which again resembles Norton Commander)
[07:52] <dyrne> michup: the alternate or server cd might have better luck.
[07:52] <jpjacobs> michup, you could use debootstrap to make an install... there should be docs on the wiki for that

[07:53] <Gerro> nigro: do you know how to work uvcvideo??
[07:53] <thomas__> in which channel should i change ?
[07:53] <dm> hi people. I have sine issue with raid controller.
[07:53] <gorski> It is said that linux is stable
[07:53] <leperkhanz> lorenz_: OK, but I've never even considered it.  Hold my hand?
[07:54] <dm> in which channel should i change ?
[07:54] <nigro> jpjacobs: I can change the resolution, but I, can't fix this for others programs
[07:54] <jpjacobs> Timmytom, or emelfm (dunno if it is available for ubuntu though)
[07:54] <lorenz_> leperkhanz: I just tried it the first time a week ago - it worked without problems
[07:54] <nigro> Gerro: yes, an PC-Cam 350
[07:54] <thomas__> any ideas
[07:54] <Gerro> nigro: when I use gqcam it says segmentation fault
[07:54] <leperkhanz> lorenz_: Aight... gonna give it a shot.
[07:54] <gorski> i just changed the graphic card and now i cannot boot ubuntu
[07:54] <Gerro> nigro: the webcam light turns on though
[07:55] <jpjacobs> nigro, well, that's normal, a program should set the camera to whatever resolution it likes, and if it is a decent program, that shopuld be adjustable
[07:55] <thomas__> in which channel should I change when I want to know how to get the mac address in C ?
[07:55] <lorenz_> leperkhanz: check this http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-help/60462-how-compile.html
[07:55] <kenthomson> jpjacobs: would you be in a position to report an error with a country-specific official ubuntu server to the proper authorities?
[07:55] <jpjacobs> gorski, sure the grafics card is not bogus?
[07:56] <jpjacobs> kenthomson, eurm, please explain?
[07:56] <Cyrus25801> I can't get any .mkv file to play.can anyone help
[07:56] <kenthomson> jpjacobs: i have been in india for a month and the official ubuntu server doesn't respond properly for the official multiverse sources subsection of the repos
[07:57] <C-gato> Hi, hola, cmo les va
[07:57] <kenthomson> jpjacobs: constantly it gives me the following error every time i update the repo (since one month), i think there needs to be done something by the package managers on the server side
[07:57] <kenthomson> jpjacobs: the error: gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[07:57] <kenthomson> Err http://in.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/multiverse Sources
[07:57] <kenthomson>   Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[07:57] <dm> guys, does anyone use Promise SATA raid with ubuntu?
[07:57] <ion> is there any way to stop the asking of root password??
[07:57] <jpjacobs> kenthomson, i'm not from india, nor am i an ubuntu 'official'. does this concern the nl or be server?
[07:57] <saigon> ion: su root
[07:57] <ion> i want to be able to run anything without the password prompt
[07:57] <Molluck> DShepherd, i am not sure what i am supposed to do.
[07:58] <ion> saigon, when I login
[07:58] <C-gato> bye
[07:58] <rollerskatejamms> Anybody know how to get dual monitors working?
[07:58] <saigon> nope, in the shell
[07:58] <Molluck> DShepherd, i opened the modprobe.d/alsa in gedit, but there are several options to tinker with... i'm not sure where to start
[07:58] <Frogzoo> dm: mostly people just use software raid
[07:58] <leperkhanz> When I try ./configure it says No such file or directory.
[07:58] <kenthomson> jpjacobs: but if you are active on the mailing list or have contact with the proper "channel" than could you please pass this on to the proper authorities? This really seems to be a serious bug. I have only seen this error on the INdian server
[07:58] <tiraeth> _ problem width usb sd card reader speed - mounted via /dev/sda _
[07:59] <kenthomson> jpjacobs: you "dont" need to be in INdia to help, i realised that you could have some contacts with proper people to bring this issue to their notice
[07:59] <ion> defcon@ion:~$ su root

[07:59] <ion> su: Authentication failure
[07:59] <ion> Sorry.
[07:59] <kenthomson> jpjacobs: thanks
[07:59] <ion> wtf?
[07:59] <ion> why cant I "su root"
[07:59] <leperkhanz> *sigh* I wish people would just release .deb s of all linux related stuff.
[07:59] <ion> I can sudo bash
[07:59] <tiraeth> _ is there anybody who know fstab and mounting tips?? _
[07:59] <ion> but not su root
[07:59] <yeniklasor> how can I disable this "[something]  has been mounted 30 times without being checked, check forced"
[07:59] <dm> Frognozoo: Well, when installer boots I see two HDDs. But there should be HW RAID1
[07:59] <tiraeth> _ i have problem with usb memory card reader... it's too slow _
[07:59] <jpjacobs> kenthomson, well, ermm, i don't know anyone of ubuntu india.. sorry. you could perhaps mention it on #ubuntu-in.?
[08:00] <Shadowpillar> tiraeth: sounds like a problem with the card reader
[08:00] <leperkhanz> Is there another #irc where they can walk me through compiling?
[08:00] <Cyrus25801> ion: I think you need to type : sudo -i
[08:00] <neverblue> leperkhanz, compiling?
[08:00] <nigro> jpjacobs: thanks...
[08:00] <kenthomson> jpjacobs: they are equally clueless but you could tell this to the ops or the package managers for the us/international server, i sure think they would be glad to help
[08:00] <tiraeth> Shadowpillar: i think it's a problem with ubuntu, on 6.10 usb reader were mounted automatically via HP photosmart 7200 in computer://
[08:00] <leperkhanz> yeah.  I'm getting No such file or directory when I type ./configure
[08:00] <nigro> jpjacobs: maybe I must recompiler my program  :D
[08:01] <ikonia> leperkhanz: your in the wrong dir
[08:01] <dru> hey
[08:01] <jpjacobs> kenthomson, you can try telling seveas, he's more an official then i am
[08:01] <neverblue> leperkhanz, what are you installing?
[08:01] <dru> how do i install a theme
[08:01] <tiraeth> Shadowpillar: in 7.04 this file is fake... (can't mount - no disk inside)
[08:01] <Shadowpillar> odd
[08:01] <ikonia> don't tell ops, log a bug
[08:01] <leperkhanz> a Nintendo 64 Plugin.
[08:01] <Shadowpillar> dunno, I havent used fiesty yet

[08:02] <ikonia> leperkhanz: thats a header file
[08:02] <saigon> ion: u firtst have to reset root password with "sudo passwd root"
[08:02] <neverblue> leperkhanz, do you see a README or INSTALL ?

[08:03] <leperkhanz> no readme or install.
[08:03] <neverblue> hmm

[08:04] <neverblue> leperkhanz, where, I do not see it
[08:04] <ikonia> ion: there is very little reason to set the root password
[08:04] <leperkhanz> Since it's the best plugin for Linux n64 emulation, I'll probably post a compiled version in the Ubuntu Forums when I'm done.
[08:04] <leperkhanz> soz....
[08:04] <leperkhanz> http://www.emutalk.net/showthread.php?t=37658&page=9
[08:04] <ikonia> leperkhanz: posting a compiled version is not much use to anyone - more so when you don't really understand what your doing
[08:04] <leperkhanz> It was one page previous.l
[08:05] <ikonia> leperkhanz: tell me the name of the package
[08:05] <Frogzoo> anybody noticed that emacs run in a terminal doesn't respect the ansi escapes? is there a fix?

[08:06] <gunnar> Q:  I am trying to setup selinux and when I run update-grub it overwrites my /boot/grub/menu.lst with the old version of the file.  Any Ideas?
[08:07] <ikonia> leperkhanz: if you want help - what is the name of the package
[08:07] <freeza> jetroo: did you download the livecd?
[08:07] <neverblue> ikonia, in case you missed it
[08:07] <neverblue> i was helping him
[08:07] <maddog39> i was searching google pantents and found something that FOSS might be infringing on
[08:07] <maddog39> its a microsoft patent
[08:07] <jetroo> yes
[08:07] <ikonia> leperkhanz: are you able to tell me the name and version of the package
[08:07] <ikonia> neverI did miss it, I'm lagging a bit
[08:07] <leperkhanz> glide64-wonder+-linux-v11.tgz
[08:07] <neverblue> glide64-wonder+-linux-v11.tgz
[08:07] <ikonia> neverblue: I did miss it, I'm lagging a bit for some reason
[08:07] <freeza> jetroo: and the gui loads fine when loading the livecd?
[08:07] <jetroo> i was going to download it again. i thought there might be a newer iso on the swensite, with a fix included
[08:07] <aos> bonsoir
[08:07] <ikonia> neverblue: thank you
[08:08] <neverblue> ikonia, you asked him for it about 5 tiems :)
[08:08] <kenthomson> ikonia: are you talking to me about that multiverse source repo error? What do i need to do?
[08:08] <higltypig> I have a cd with the .iso on but can't get terminal to see the file
[08:08] <jetroo> website**
[08:08] <neverblue> that might be your lag-reason ;)
[08:08] <ikonia> neverblue: I was lagging, he just kept posting a link
[08:08] <jetroo> no it dosent
[08:08] <leperkhanz> I don't really know the "name of it".
[08:08] <jetroo> it dosent even load into the live cd
[08:08] <ikonia> kenthomson: if you think you have a real bug, log it to the ubuntu support group
[08:08] <jetroo> i didnt have this problem with 6.06 or 6.10
[08:08] <swatF1RESTORM> can anyone help me with getting me ATI radeon mobility 9700 m10 setup? Tried most of what's on the forum and still no luck
[08:08] <gil> hello
[08:08] <jetroo> those live cds work perfectly
[08:09] <freeza> jetroo: first thing i would try is redownloading the livecd at the ubuntu site to see if it works
[08:09] <leperkhanz> It's a modification of the Glide Wonder + plugin that allows video emulation of the Nintendo 64, and over OpenGL with the Hactarux glide wrapper.
[08:09] <gil> I got some questions regarding dual monitor display
[08:09] <ikonia> gil: go for it
[08:09] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: feisty?
[08:09] <gil> ikonia: thanks
[08:09] <freeza> jetroo: what are the specs of your laptop? video card, wireless, cpu
[08:09] <swatF1RESTORM> Frogzoo: yes
[08:10] <jetroo> dell 6400 / ati x1300
[08:10] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: you run the restricted driver manager?
[08:10] <jetroo> intel wifi
[08:10] <dru> where do i find themes?
[08:10] <gil> in my laptop bios i have selected that the display be directed automatically. Thus if crt is connected the laptop lcd should not be on......
[08:10] <dru> and how do i install them
[08:10] <ikonia> gil: that seems reasonable
[08:10] <ikonia> dru: gnome-look.org
[08:10] <dru> what category?
[08:10] <gil> right but ubuntu forces the monitor on
[08:10] <ikonia> dru: what ever one you want
[08:10] <pimuri> erm .. after installing ubuntu it reboots .. then grub says "grubstage 1.5       grub loading, please wait...     Error 22"  ("22 : "Must load Multiboot kernel before modules"
[08:10] <pimuri> This error is returned if the module load command is used before loading a Multiboot kernel. It only makes sense in this case anyway, as GRUB has no idea how to communicate the presence of location of such modules to a non-Multiboot-aware kernel.", from some homepage)  what should I do?   the computer is kinda old (end of 90ties ...     I installed ubuntu on scsi disk which is connected to a scsi controller)
[08:10] <gil> i cant explain it
[08:10] <swatF1RESTORM> Frogzoo: yes I installed the restricted driver manager
[08:11] <dru> but then how do i install it?
[08:11] <jetroo> it has intel core duo processor
[08:11] <dru> i tryed before, it said wrong file type
[08:11] <ikonia> gil: that bios setting is normally which is the primary monitor
[08:11] <ikonia> dru: instructions on the gnome site
[08:11] <gil> right
[08:11] <ikonia> gil: use the function key and an F key to disable the laptop lcd display
[08:11] <leperkhanz> Any luck on that glide plugin?
[08:11] <freeza> jetroo: do you get any kernel panics when loading the live cd? also use safe mode option when booting live cd, that way you use vesa
[08:11] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: now run it - does it pick up the ati ?
[08:11] <dru> it has different types of themes .. like xxxms
[08:11] <jetroo> i was using the 6.10 live cd, ive just installeed it
[08:12] <dru> i dont get it
[08:12] <jetroo> the screen goes black for a while
[08:12] <ikonia> dru: you download hte theme for the component you want
[08:12] <dru> what do u mean
[08:12] <ikonia> leperkhanz: I'm looking at it
[08:12] <jetroo> then i get a message saying something wrong with the x server
[08:12] <ikonia> dru: if you want an xmms theme - you download an xmms theme and install it through xmms
[08:12] <jetroo> this is just tryingt o run live cd
[08:12] <freeza> jetroo: ok boot up the livecd using safe mode option
[08:12] <dru> i dont know what xmms is
[08:13] <swatF1RESTORM> Frogzoo: yes. when i bring up the restricted drivers windows there is a check box that is enabled (enabled = checked) and status says it's in use
[08:13] <ikonia> dru: a media player
[08:13] <dru> i just got linux .. could you explain to me more?
[08:13] <Megaqwerty> Does anyone know of a program like sub-etha edit for linux?
[08:13] <leperkhanz> ikonia: sweet.

[08:13] <jpjacobs> Cyrus25801, what is an mkv file? (use file ;))

[08:13] <ikonia> dru: read the forum
[08:14] <yeniklasor> !anyone
[08:14] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:14] <Paddy_EIRE> ikonia, re read the question
[08:14] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: glxinfo |grep vendor
[08:14] <freeza> jetroo: that way we can see if the problem is your video card or the motherboard and they way it loads the video
[08:14] <ikonia> Paddy_EIRE: apologies "and" bluetooth
[08:14] <gil> ikonia: i cannot seem to use the function key to turn of the lCD
