[06:53] <spikeb> emphetamine: the hardware isn't supported very well yet with drivers
[06:53] <KenSentMe> gianluca: do you use breezy or dapper?
[06:53] <spikeb> brb
[06:53] <NoUse> gianluca I'm not on my ubuntu box
[06:53] <emphetamine> skippy81: btw, do you know some pages about that?
[06:53] <bigcx2> so no one in here uses nm-applet?
[06:53] <gianluca> breezy
[06:53] <brettzilla> so to mount the ntfs partitions, should i have it auto mount on boot up? or no
[06:53] <skippy81> http://cipherfunk.org/diary/archives/monthly/2006-04.html   http://modular.math.washington.edu/macbook/ emphetamine
[06:54] <emphetamine> skippy81: thank you very much..
[06:54] <emphetamine> ;)
[06:54] <KenSentMe> gianluca: i use dapper and have installed it following the wiki and all works. I use Kaffeine instead of mplayer
[06:54] <emphetamine> bye
[06:54] <Eftarjin> bigcx2: i'm using nm-applet
[06:54] <Otsego> Hi again guys. More problems during the install. Ubuntu is trying to install the ELILO bootloader, but I don't need it as I already have LILO as a bootloader, how can I abort the install and proceed with the rest?
[06:54] <gianluca> if you go there http://www.allmusic.tv/streaming.asp
[06:54] <gianluca> it works?
[06:55] <NthDegree> brettzilla:  NTFS sucks in ubuntu, since you have to apply an everyone write permission to it from within winblows (which is as bad as FAT32)
[06:55] <KenSentMe> gianluca: i can see the video, but can't hear any sound
[06:55] <skippy81> http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h183/tommyr2006/DCP_2021.jpg emphetamine - cool picture of dapper on a mac :)
[06:55] <NthDegree> Otsego:  Use the install CD and use Expert mode!!!!
[06:55] <brettzilla> im not trying to write to my ntfs partition
[06:55] <gianluca> better than nothing :)
[06:55] <brettzilla> i just want to read mp3s from it.. so my ubuntu experience isnt as boring
[06:55] <Otsego> NthDegree, I use the alternate install CD, but how can I enable expert mode?
[06:55] <Otsego> (dapper drake)
[06:56] <gianluca> i'll try to install kaffeine...
[06:56] <gianluca> i'll be back
[06:56] <KenSentMe> gianluca: that's true. Normaly it works most of the time but sometimes firefox crashes when video is played
[06:56] <NthDegree> Otsego: F6 twice and it should let you choose
[06:56] <gianluca> ok
[06:57] <NthDegree> Otsego: then when you go through the setup you can choose between LILO, GRUB or not bother to install a bootloader
[06:57] <Otsego> okay, thanks for the help, I'll let you know how it goes afterwards, thanks NthDegree
[06:57] <skippy81> guys has anyone managed to use linuxbios to launch ubuntu ? does it work
[06:57] <NthDegree> Otsego:  one other thing, you may prefer GRUB to what you have now!
[06:58] <Otsego> NthDegree, I'll stick to LILO. I use an Intel Mac, and rEFIt (a bootloader) takes care of everything, LILO is just there as "a middle man"
[07:00] <KarlsBerg>  now my ipw3945 is unload, but the wireless led is ON ! need reboot ! ?
[07:00] <KarlsBerg> (module)
[07:00] <gui> is it true that dapper will include XGL?
[07:00] <KarlsBerg> NO
[07:00] <KarlsBerg> its possible that the next version
[07:00] <gui> really? it's on wikipedia
[07:00] <brettzilla> brett@brett-desktop:/$ sudo mount /dev/hdh /media/winstorage -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222
[07:00] <brettzilla> mount: /dev/hdh already mounted or /media/winstorage busy
[07:01] <brettzilla> how come it says its busy or already mounted?
[07:01] <KarlsBerg> the wikipedia dont have supervision
[07:01] <gui> that's a truth
[07:01] <gui> anyway, is it ok to install it following the ubuntu wiki?
[07:02] <walkover> hey! how do i remove a program COMPLETELY in ubuntu?
[07:02] <NthDegree> gui, follow the official instructions :)
[07:02] <NthDegree> walkover: use synaptic package manager
[07:02] <Eftarjin> gui: you may do it ... at your own risks
[07:02] <KarlsBerg> walkover: purge
[07:02] <gui> NthDegree, where?
[07:02] <walkover> KarlsBerg, not enough
[07:02] <NthDegree> on the ubuntu website
[07:02] <gui> Eftarjin, really, is that so hard??
[07:02] <KenSentMe> walkover: sudo apt-get --purge remove package
[07:02] <NthDegree> gui: opn the ubuntu official site it has documentation!
[07:03] <drew> now I feel my ubuntu is complete
[07:03] <NthDegree> on*
[07:03] <Eftarjin> gui: i don't think it's hard but it may not work at all
[07:03] <exhale> when i upgrade to a new kernel, do i need to remove the older one or does it do that automaticaly?
[07:03] <walkover> i had gaim installed and it jammed on startup and then i dpkg -P'ed it and installed it again but it seemed to keep my settings
[07:03] <gui> NthDegreehm, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager/Xgl   is that it?
[07:03] <trevor> Skippy81, are you around? you helped me last night with my ATI drivers...
[07:04] <KenSentMe> walkover: in your home folder there is a folder .gaim. Delete that and reinstall gaim
[07:04] <skippy81> hello trevor
[07:04] <walkover> oh ok
[07:04] <skippy81> im still here :)
[07:04] <trevor> cool
[07:04] <trevor> ok....you gave me that new xorg.conf file....it worked
[07:04] <PPower> hello all. i am having trouble getting into ubuntu. it logs in ok, plays the startup sound then locks up but i can still move the mouse
[07:04] <sergiol> hello
[07:04] <CoOlGhOsT> FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.15-23-686/volatile/fglrx.ko): Operation not permitted
[07:04] <CoOlGhOsT>  <-- what could cause such an error???
[07:05] <PPower> i dont get a splash
[07:05] <drew> wait any way to get rar support
[07:05] <skippy81> ok so your card is working ok now trevor?
[07:05] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT are you using sudo?
[07:05] <sergiol> dpkg -P removes the instalation or removes only an etry from the package database?
[07:05] <trevor> yes
[07:05] <skippy81> good :)
[07:05] <trevor> but i still dont have dual screens...
[07:05] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: yep.. tried both with sudo and as root
[07:05] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT what kind of video card do you have?
[07:06] <CoOlGhOsT> ati radeon 9550
[07:06] <ShastaMaroon> I followed the ubuntu wiki to install ATI's driver, but X is still loading the Mesa version...I do have Driver "fglrx" - what needs to be changed?
[07:06] <skippy81> ok one sec trevor ill look into it, could you put me a copy of your file up on pastebin again please
[07:06] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: ^
[07:06] <trevor> yes
[07:06] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT check the output of 'dmesg' and see if there are any clues
[07:07] <trevor> skippy81, http://pastebin.com/747113
[07:07] <PPower> my motherboard is a nforce 4 one. i have heard they are causing problems with linux
[07:07] <kemik> !mysql

[07:07] <skippy81> ok trevor are you trying to get dual display, or do you want a different desktop on each display?
[07:07] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: http://pastebin.com/747115
[07:08] <trevor> well, thats just it Skipp81...I want to be able to drag a window to the other monitor

[07:08] <brettzilla> haha
[07:08] <paul_> sure pass me a joint. lol
[07:08] <kemik> do i dare upgrade to dapper today on my server...
[07:09] <PPower> i wouldnt. upgrades have been going bad
[07:09] <Frogzoo> kemik: nope ;)
[07:09] <skippy81> ok trevor im going to have a fiddle with your config file, dont worry if i go quiet for a bit :)
[07:09] <kemik> ack :(
[07:09] <trevor> ok Skippy81
[07:09] <kemik> i need MySQL5, or i need to write some nasty queries :/
[07:09] <kemik> or go through the trouble of installing postgres ....
[07:09] <PPower> can i have a hand with my login prob please?
[07:09] <extern> does anyone have working 5.1 surround?
[07:10] <phrowzen> extern, yessir
[07:10] <Frogzoo> kemik: or just chill for a day or two...o_O
[07:10] <KarlsBerg> if i unload a module of my wireless but the LED dont off, i save energy on my laptop ?
[07:10] <dizy> hi.. im trying to install nvidia drivers for dapper... im following the wiki guide but when i get to "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" ... it tells me that my X configuration has already been altered  and it can't proceed and tells me a workaround if im sure to do so... and im not sure
[07:10] <PPower> now reboot your pc.
[07:10] <PPower> ^ dizy
[07:11] <dizy> oh.. reboot ?
[07:11] <extern> phrowzen, how did you got it working?\
[07:11] <dizy> ok.. brb if it doesnt work :)
[07:11] <Frogzoo> KarlsBerg: if it's pcmcia you need to use cartctl to turn it off
[07:11] <PPower> ^ thats what i did on other ones
[07:11] <paul_> Is there a newsreader complarible with same functionality of outlook express. The reason I ask is I use newsgroups to access my university classrooms and so far I have found nothing that will access the schools nntp server.
[07:11] <phrowzen> extern, i donno, my audigy2 card was picked up automatically by ubuntu.. then i jused used alsamixer to adjust the sound levels on the other speakers
[07:12] <extern> I have an integrated card
[07:12] <Frogzoo> paul_: consider pan
[07:12] <extern> and I only get 2.1 sound
[07:12] <Bardamu> anyone know a software for sub a video ?
[07:12] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: any ideas?
[07:12] <phrowzen> ahh ic, that sux ;)... umm, do you have level options for the other channels using alsamixer?
[07:12] <phrowzen> if not, maybe there is another driver you can try
[07:12] <jobezone> paul_: and knode.
[07:12] <errordeveloper> how to invoke this from the root shell http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/nwam/stateoftheart/ubuntu/network-settings-connections.png ? i'm in filesafe session , so cannot have a panel menu ..
[07:12] <PPower> as for my login bug, i cant change the session type without locking up.
[07:13] <KarlsBerg> cartctl ?
[07:13] <amphi> Bardamu: mencoder can do it, I believe
[07:13] <walkover> whats the name of the gnome filemanager?
[07:13] <errordeveloper> walkover: nautilus
[07:13] <walkover> thanks
[07:13] <g-nome> paul_ tried thunderbird?
[07:13] <titan> why does disk manager like never work for me? I am trying to access my windows partition but can not figure it out for the life of me. I know which one is my windows partions and have mounted it at one time but now it is mounting bad or something and when I try to disable under status, it just blinks at me but does not disable.
[07:13] <KarlsBerg> walkover:  caution
[07:13] <Bardamu> amphi,  i don't want to encode i want time
[07:13] <walkover> caution?
[07:13] <KarlsBerg> cautilus run the file manager and the desktop
[07:14] <Bardamu> as sub station alpha
[07:14] <walkover> thats why i need to get rid of it:D
[07:14] <KarlsBerg> if dont wanna the desktop, run nautilus --no-desktop
[07:14] <walkover> i run xfce :D
[07:14] <jobezone> errordeveloper: network-admin
[07:14] <drew> what it a rar program I can get with apt-get
[07:14] <walkover> need xffm instead
[07:14] <errordeveloper> KarlsBerg: nautilus --no-desktop or something like that , man nautilus , yeah ..
[07:14] <extern> phrowzen, it isn't muted
[07:14] <extern> and I still don't get no surroudn sound :/
[07:14] <errordeveloper> jobezone: cool, thanx
[07:15] <phrowzen> extern, what about the volumes themselves though? like, do you have adjustments for like.. 'rear' 'front' 'center' etc etc
[07:15] <extern> I do
[07:15] <extern> LFE
[07:15] <extern> center
[07:15] <extern> front
[07:15] <jobezone> errordeveloper: welcome :)
[07:15] <extern> what is LFE though
[07:15] <extern> it always gets muted
[07:15] <paul_> Yep I have tried thundervbird and pan. Neither have enough options in the setup to access universities servers.  If I can get something to work in linux then I am going totally unbuntu instead of a dual boot machine.
[07:15] <extern> for some reason
[07:15] <phrowzen> extern, i am not sure what lfe is
[07:16] <paul_> Personally I hate having to boot from os to os
[07:16] <jobezone> paul_: there's also knode. And I'm not sure, but maybe evolution also handles newsgroups?
[07:16] <extern> I foudn in internet that it is the sub
[07:16] <KarlsBerg> cardctl only is for PCMCIA no ?
[07:16] <extern> (low frequency speaker)
[07:16] <KarlsBerg> not pci
[07:16] <extern> although it is muted
[07:16] <extern> in the mixer
[07:16] <paul_> ubuntu runs so much faster than windows I swear. Im trying knode right now.
[07:16] <extern> it still is playing sound
[07:17] <loststar4545> whats kynode
[07:17] <sergiol> what package i need to have apache2 with ssl over ubuntu?
[07:18] <phrowzen> extern, i donno, i dont know what my lfe levels are i dont recall, i cant really check right now. i just changed my rear/front/center etc... are you sure the sound utility you are using is using ALSA for ouput?
[07:18] <KarlsBerg> what is the best method to emulate the wireless enable/disable hotkey on a laptop ?
[07:18] <extern> yes
[07:18] <extern> alsasink
[07:18] <phrowzen> extern, for example.. xmms for me will upmix 2 channel mp3s into 5.1, however if i recall, say vlc, it wont do 5.1 ch on a 2ch track
[07:18] <jobezone> sergiol: Just had a look, and it seems to be apache-ssl
[07:18] <phrowzen> extern, hmm im really not sure, im actually not an expert at this at all, i just adjusted my levels and it pretty much just 'worked' for me
[07:19] <sergiol> i think apache-ssl is from older versions
[07:19] <jobezone> sergiol: ahh..
[07:19] <extern> I don't get it why do each linux program use different sound properties and stuff...
[07:19] <phrowzen> extern, they dont really.. just mostly asks if you wish to use alsa or oss as sound output server
[07:20] <drew> wats a rar compresion program that I can get
[07:20] <extern> why does linux need to have several sound servers? :/
[07:20] <jobezone> sergiol: haven't you found it by searching for all apache packages (in synaptic, or using 'apt-cache search')?
[07:20] <spikeb> the same reason it needs several anything elses
[07:20] <spikeb> because.
[07:20] <phrowzen> extern, im really not an expert i dont know :) i would assume each has its own advantages, although for the most part i believe things use alsa
[07:20] <Jimmey__> 72% of my RAM ( it's reported ) is being used as "cache". What does this mean?
[07:21] <FunnyLookinHat> Jimmey__, probably that it's not currently being used for anything and is available.
[07:21] <extern> what are other alsa configuring applications?
[07:21] <Chousuke> Jimmey__: it means linux puts frequently used files into RAM for faster access.
[07:21] <FunnyLookinHat> Chousuke, hmm... always figured that's what SWAP was for
[07:21] <FunnyLookinHat> ^_^;;
[07:21] <Chousuke> no.
[07:21] <Jimmey__> Okay, thankyou both
[07:21] <jobezone> drew: see the packages rar, unrar, and unrar-free .
[07:21] <amphi> Jimmey__: it means the kernel is working hard on your behalf ;)
[07:21] <drew> k
[07:21] <Chousuke> into swap goes things that are _not_ used. :)
[07:21] <phrowzen> FunnyLookinHat, RAM is faster than hdd swap ;)
[07:21] <KarlsBerg> what is the best method to emulate the wireless enable/disable hotkey on a laptop ?
[07:21] <Chousuke> because swap is slow.
[07:22] <Chousuke> and RAM is fast.
[07:22] <extern> omg
[07:22] <extern> I can't believe it
[07:22] <extern> I scrolled left and saw "channel"
[07:22] <jobezone> drew: unrar is non-free, but opens .rar files compressed with the newest rar versions.
[07:22] <phrowzen> extern, ? found the prob? something dumb?
[07:22] <extern> set to 2ch
[07:22] <extern> then I changed it to 6ch
[07:22] <phrowzen> haha
[07:22] <extern> zomg
[07:22] <SurfnKid> something is wrong with my wlan0 thing
[07:22] <drew> i need something free
[07:22] <sas171> hi, I dont want those fancy feuters like 3D desktop, I just want to have accelarated desktop... what should I install, is there some howto?
[07:22] <extern> I didn't think that it was possible toscroll right :/
[07:22] <phrowzen> extern, which tool is this, sorry? i dont recall seeing a 2ch setting or whatever
[07:22] <Chousuke> you should've set it to 4ch ;P
[07:22] <SurfnKid> im online but it doest show the blinking send/recv ligghts
[07:22] <extern> alsamixer
[07:23] <phrowzen> ahh in alsamixer you didnt know you could scroll right? lol
[07:23] <extern> scroll right and you'll see ;)
[07:23] <phrowzen> actually, i did the same thing before
[07:23] <SurfnKid> i think im just gonna reboot
[07:23] <phrowzen> ;)
[07:23] <Chousuke> SurfnKid: what are the blinking lights good for?
[07:23] <jobezone> drew: and that's why it isn't automatically installed. Use file-roler to have a graphical view on compressing/decompressing files. It automatically uses rar, etc.
[07:23] <Chousuke> if you're online, what else do you need? :D
[07:23] <phrowzen> extern, enjoy :) btw.. you will probably have to play with the volume levels alot for the front/rear/centre speakers... i find it they are anywhere past 82% or so, they become really distorted
[07:24] <amphi> Chousuke: it's axiomatic that blinkenlights are a Good Thing(TM)
[07:24] <drew> also Im instaling vnc
[07:24] <SurfnKid> Chousuke true
[07:24] <Chousuke> amphi: heh
[07:24] <drew> how would I run the graphical gui for vnc server
[07:24] <drew> and make a password for it
[07:24] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT sorry, I would try googling that last error message
[07:24] <SurfnKid> brb
[07:25] <jobezone> drew: vnc is automatically installed in ubuntu, I think. There's a page about it in ubuntu's wiki at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VNC
[07:26] <bigcx2> vnc is installed by default
[07:26] <bigcx2> vino
[07:26] <skippy81> trevor, ok http://pastebin.com/747149 save a backup because there is at least a 50/50 chance of you not being able to get into xwindows if this fails
[07:26] <phrowzen> damn.. ive learned so much more about linux since running it 24/7 these past 4 months or so ;)
[07:26] <sergiol> apt-cache serches where? in the repositories that are in the /etc directory?
[07:26] <walkover> I cant remember how to make my not-super user have acces to my cdrom drive, does anyone remember?
[07:27] <skippy81> trevor do you know how to overwrite a file with a backup from the terminal?
[07:27] <phrowzen> walkover, i think it has to be added to the cdrom group
[07:27] <bigcx2> walkover: put them in the cdrom group
[07:27] <walkover> with chown?
[07:27] <phrowzen> walkover, i would just edit /etc/groups or /etc/group whatever it is
[07:27] <brettzilla> does anyone know if there is cd cover printing software for linux?
[07:27] <bigcx2> walkover: usermod will work
[07:27] <phrowzen> walkover, usermod would probably work too
[07:28] <bigcx2> hehe
[07:28] <walkover> hehe ok
[07:28] <ramvi> Heya fellow ubuntuers
[07:28] <brettzilla> i have an epson r320, and i want to be able to print my cd labels (directly on the cd)
[07:28] <phrowzen> walkover, if you use usermod, make sure you APPEND cdrom to the groups, i mesed it up once and i removed my self from sudo'ers ;)
[07:28] <brettzilla> but i dont know if software exists..
[07:28] <PPower> i still have my login problem. lockup after sound on login, no splash screen, mouse can move but cant do anything else
[07:28] <ramvi> How do I crack the password of a zip file?
[07:28] <jobezone> sergiol: yes, but not directly. Meaning, if you change the /etc/apt/sources.list file, you'll have to run 'sudo apt-get update' first.
[07:28] <brettzilla> isnt that illegal?
[07:28] <trevor> skippy81, i got it
[07:29] <ramvi> brettzilla, it's mine
[07:29] <trevor> going to reboot
[07:29] <PPower> brettzilla: it depends
[07:29] <brettzilla> oh
[07:29] <PPower> if it is something like a commercial package then yes.
[07:29] <brettzilla> yeah thats what i meant
[07:29] <ramvi> It isn't ;) It's from my school
[07:29] <PPower> then it is
[07:29] <brettzilla> ah i see
[07:29] <PPower> ramvi: i guess your ok then
[07:29] <brettzilla> shit i forgot what i was going to ask
[07:30] <drew> ever tried controlling your own pc in vnc its fun
[07:30] <PPower> brettzilla: your lucky. i have to put up with windows untill i can log in
[07:30] <walkover> i have this line "cdrom:x:24:walkover" in the group file and walkover is my user so that should be alright, right?
[07:30] <KarlsBerg> what is the best method to emulate the wireless enable/disable hotkey on a laptop ? and save battery
[07:30] <ZeuGiRDoR> brettzilla, xDDDD
[07:30] <brettzilla> stoner moment.. god damnit.
[07:30] <StR> hi there....  how can I reconfigure alsa to change the driver to use for my sound card?
[07:30] <phrowzen> walkover, yeah that should be fine
[07:30] <walkover> hmm strange
[07:30] <ramvi> Yeah, on the legal part -- but how do I hack it? zipcracker.sourceforge.net had an app, but it needed a dep that I couldn't find
[07:31] <phrowzen> walkover, and not working eh? hmm..
[07:31] <jobezone> drew: one day I'll want to do that
[07:31] <phrowzen> walkover, is it listed properly in /etc/fstab?
[07:31] <PPower> ramvi: hex edit it
[07:31] <skippy81> ok trevor just make sure you are prepared to restore the backup from the shell prompt
[07:31] <walkover> maybe not
[07:31] <trevor> skippy81....im back
[07:31] <walkover> ill have a look
[07:31] <brettzilla> hah this is pissing me off. wtf was i going to ask
[07:31] <drew> cant wait till my dad gets this hotel with wifi
[07:31] <drew> then I can control it with my psp
[07:31] <skippy81> ok trevor, you got the file ok?
[07:32] <PPower> brett: well could you help me with my login bug then?
[07:32] <drew> thats the shiznit
[07:32] <trevor> ya
[07:32] <brettzilla> whats going on with your login bug?
[07:32] <skippy81> just make sure you make a backup and know how to restore that backup from a plain terminal :D
[07:32] <ramvi> PPower, What should I do when "hexing" it?
[07:32] <PPower> i log in to ubuntu. it works fine. i get my startup sound but no splash screen then it locks up
[07:32] <walkover> i have this "/dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0"
[07:32] <PPower> ramvi: look for any possible strings. jsut a guess
[07:33] <walkover> should that be fine?
[07:33] <trevor> skippy81, restoring is using the "cp" command, right?
[07:33] <ramvi> Right, okay. Thanks :)
[07:33] <brettzilla> have you added anything to your sessions PPower?
[07:33] <phrowzen> walkover, i donno what to tell you, looks fine to me.. what happens when u put a disc in? nothing @ /media/cdrom0?
[07:33] <ramvi> Is there a place where I can find deps?
[07:33] <PPower> no. its a fresh install onto a nforce 4 system
[07:33] <brettzilla> hm
[07:33] <walkover> i can browse it alright but i cant execute anything
[07:33] <skippy81> trevor yes :)
[07:33] <trevor> cool
[07:33] <phrowzen> i have to poo at work but im all alone in the store :(
[07:33] <skippy81> make sure you know how to do it, then try a reboot :_
[07:33] <PPower> i think its the sound. when i go to sesssion and choose a option it makes a sound then locks up
[07:34] <trevor> skippy...i already rebooted :)
[07:34] <brettzilla> you havent been able to boot yet?
[07:34] <brettzilla> oh, so you have been able to boot
[07:34] <brettzilla> er, log in
[07:34] <phrowzen> walkover, hmm.. ive never tried to 'execute' anything.. you can read files peroprly?
[07:34] <skippy81> oh i see, what is happening then? any change trevor?
[07:34] <titan> alright, I am stumped. I have used Disk Manager to mount my windows partition. I am not trying to copy stuff from that partition to my linux desktop but when I click paste it does nothing. Anyone know why?
[07:34] <phrowzen> properly*
[07:34] <PPower> well it validated me but didnt load the desktop
[07:34] <trevor> no...
[07:34] <walkover> thats what i mean by executing
[07:34] <titan> now*
[07:34] <walkover> so no
[07:34] <brettzilla> im not sure man, i'm still new to linux too
[07:34] <PPower> ok. thanks.
[07:35] <phrowzen> walkover, ahh ok.. check your dmesg?
[07:35] <brettzilla> what distro are you installing w/ ?
[07:35] <PPower> ubuntu 5.10
[07:35] <walkover> dmesg?
[07:35] <skippy81> what card is it you have again trevor, i assume it has duel heads and you are using it with 2 crt monitors?
[07:35] <brettzilla> breezy?
[07:35] <trevor> on lcd, on crt
[07:35] <PPower> yuo
[07:35] <brettzilla> or dapper? or what
[07:35] <phrowzen> walkover, .. yeah.. insert a disc and issue 'dmesg' at a terminal
[07:35] <PPower> breezy
[07:35] <brettzilla> hm. maybe try dapper?
[07:35] <nicolas_> does anyone has a way to fix that libdbus lib issue with skypemate ?
[07:35] <trevor> skippy81, ATI All In Wonder 9600
[07:35] <brettzilla> im using dapper
[07:35] <PPower> ill give it a go with suse first to see if it is a bug with my pc or ubuntu.
[07:35] <skippy81> two crt monitors? or crt + tv?
[07:36] <PPower> thanks.
[07:36] <jobezone> StR: good question.. alsa is part of the kernel (linux) now. Try this: install the package 'modconf' . Then run it like 'sudo modconf' . Then look at the kernel/sound category. Inside that category, will be a bunch of linux modules (=drivers) which you can load/unload.
[07:36] <brettzilla> yeah
[07:36] <trevor> skippy, one crt monitor, one lcd
[07:36] <brettzilla> sorry i couldnt be any more help
[07:36] <brettzilla> oh, damnit. lol
[07:36] <brettzilla> im going to reboot to see if my stuff mounted.
[07:36] <brettzilla> brb
[07:36] <StR> jobezone: thanks....let me try
[07:37] <skippy81> trevor try "sudo aticonfig --initial=dual-head --screen-layout=right --desktop-setup=horizontal"
[07:38] <trevor> skippy, i did it
[07:38] <trevor> (but i did layout=left"
[07:38] <walkover> phrowzen, what to look for?
[07:38] <trevor> because the second monitor is on the left Skippy81
[07:38] <AImtyBob> I set up an ssh server on port 21 of my box and I connect to it from my other PC which is on the outside the firewall, but when I try to connect from work I get a blank screen with no login.  In the event log I can see my server and Putty exchange versions and then putty says it's using SSH Protocol 2, but then that's it, no keys exchanged
[07:38] <StR> jobezone: how can I know which sound card driver to use?
[07:38] <skippy81> ah ok
[07:38] <EmxBA> hi
[07:38] <EmxBA> intelikey:hi
[07:38] <EmxBA> what's up
[07:38] <EmxBA> any problems
[07:39] <EmxBA> etc
[07:39] <skippy81> try a reboot now trevor
[07:39] <trevor> ok
[07:39] <phrowzen> walkover, well, if you dont see anything bad that catches your eyes hehe its probably fine in that sense
[07:39] <walkover> but its huge
[07:40] <phrowzen> walkover, what happens if you mount the disc as root and browese as root? its fine?
[07:40] <phrowzen> walkover, it would be towards the very end
[07:40] <jobezone> StR: hmm, if you're asking, it means that the correct module wasn't automatically loaded. So, the best way would be for you to search on the web for your souncard name and the word linux, to know the specific module for it.
[07:40] <walkover> ill have another look
[07:40] <walkover> and try as root
[07:40] <phrowzen> walkover, :)
[07:40] <titan> is there a way to mount my windows partition a little more effectivly and user friendly ( =P) than Disk Manager?
[07:41] <trevor> skippy81, still nothing
[07:41] <jobezone> StR: run 'lspci', then see what it says in 'Multimedia audio controller'
[07:41] <skippy81> hmm im really stumped trevor
[07:41] <trevor> ok
[07:41] <StR> jobezone: nothing there
[07:41] <trevor> that's alright...not a big deal
[07:41] <jobezone> StR: to see the soundcard/chipset you have

[07:42] <bestadvocate> hey guys I forgot the technical name of that gnome program that used to be default with Ubuntu, but does not seem to be there with the fresh install.   When I type the Danish letters () into nedit they display as two characters in a row (which are nonsensical). Also when I try to compile a latex file containing one or more of these letters it complains, displaying the nonsensical characters instead of the actual text. This happens even if I write the particular file in gedit which displays t
[07:44] <jobezone> StR: had a search, and the module is snd-i8x0 . BUT, I'm seeing other people with the same problem in ubuntu dapper, and suse.
[07:44] <skippy81> trevor try doing "sudo apt-get fglrx-control"
[07:45] <jobezone> StR: not having sound, that is. Have you tried increasing all the sound levels?
[07:45] <trevor> skippy81, how about apt-get install fglrx-control?
[07:45] <phrowzen> walkover, are you sure its not the disc?
[07:45] <skippy81> it will probably sy its allready intalled though
[07:45] <jobezone> StR: by running 'alsamixer'
[07:45] <skippy81> yeah thats the one trevor :)
[07:45] <StR> jobezone: that is the weid part..It only has 2 channels, the "master" and the "PCM"
[07:45] <trevor> skippy81, installing...
[07:45] <walkover> i can browse it alright and it was running in windows today
[07:45] <trevor> skippy81, done
[07:46] <sergiol> to walkover: noroot in /ets/fstab
[07:46] <fundacite> hola
[07:46] <sergiol> to walkover: noroot in /etc/fstab
[07:46] <jobezone> StR: hm, yeah, that's exactly what I saw on this page.
[07:46] <thomsen> hallo, ik heb een vraag over openoffice writer, kan iemand me helpen?
[07:46] <StR> jobezone: URL? so I can read about how they fixed it?
[07:46] <jobezone> StR: are you using smp?
[07:46] <skippy81> ok now try any of these commands "fglrx-control" "flgrxconfig"
[07:46] <ompaul> !nl
[07:46] <ubotu> Op #ubuntu-nl staat de koffie al voor je klaar.
[07:46] <jobezone> StR: http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=286
[07:46] <sergiol> at the line where your CD-drive is located
[07:47] <thomsen> hello, i'm using openoffice writer and i have a question about it
[07:47] <jobezone> StR: so far, they are all stuck.
[07:47] <ompaul> !es
[07:47] <skippy81> if neither of those work type fglrx and hit tab a few times, see if any interesting commands appear, we are looking for a gui control panel program
[07:47] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[07:47] <StR> jobezone:  cat /proc/version :: Linux version 2.6.15-23-686 (buildd@rothera) (gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)) #1 SMP
[07:47] <StR> jobezone: so.. it is with SMP, right?
[07:47] <skippy81> shoot thomsen...
[07:48] <thomsen> when i'm trying to put the cursor a line down, it's going 2 lines down. Like in a list. ,
[07:49] <thomsen> how can i put this back to normal
[07:49] <StR> jobezone: should I try to load the snd-i8x0 driver?
[07:49] <StR> str@eva:~$ modprobe snd-i8x0
[07:49] <StR> FATAL: Module snd_i8x0 not found
[07:49] <jobezone> StR: I asked you that, because people in that thread also were using SMP.
[07:49] <trevor> skippy81, neither of those worked :(
[07:50] <skippy81> try format - paragraph on your menu thomsen, see what the values for spacing above and below paragraph do
[07:50] <StR> jobezone: it didn't work without SMP either
[07:50] <jobezone> StR: forget about that driver :/
[07:50] <blue-frog> thomsen, choose default from upper left text box
[07:50] <StR> jobezone: ok
[07:50] <jobezone> StR: I misread what someone said at the thread. But, see this one : http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=432260
[07:50] <skippy81> hmm trevor, do this "cd /" then "flgrx" and hit tab a few times
[07:51] <skippy81> it should list all the commands availiable starting with flgrx
[07:51] <paddygman_> anyone in here clued up on the installation of azureus an running the xml_http_if plugin????
[07:51] <jobezone> StR: again, they're using spm. At the end, a person requests some information as he intends to write a patch to alsa.
[07:51] <skippy81> then try the same for "ati" and "catalyst"
[07:51] <trevor> skippy81, display all 2453 possibilities?
[07:51] <skippy81> no
[07:51] <trevor> ok
[07:51] <jobezone> StR: perhaps you could try e-mailing that person with that info.
[07:52] <njan> trevor, you hit enter after flgrx
[07:52] <njan> well, I'm guessing.
[07:52] <trevor> i did
[07:52] <njan> Don't. :)
[07:52] <njan> you're tab completing every executable file in your path otherwise, as opposed to those starting with flgrx :P
[07:52] <jobezone> StR: ok, just had a look at more results (from searching), and found https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/33719 .
[07:53] <trevor> ooh njan, i got alist...
[07:53] <drew> man I cant believe peeps think linx is hard
[07:53] <paddygman_> azureus plugins anyone?
[07:54] <skippy81> ok treveor, paste the list to pastebin
[07:54] <trevor> ok
[07:54] <skippy81> i really wish linux has an easy way of telling you the names of recently installed programs
[07:54] <drew> why
[07:54] <trevor> http://pastebin.com/747195
[07:54] <drew> just go to installed
[07:54] <skippy81> it really winds me up having to go through a stupid process of installing stuff and then figuring out its name lol
[07:55] <skippy81> nope thats not it trevor
[07:55] <jobezone> StR: actually, unless this person's laptop and hardware configuration is the same as yours, your best bet is to: Search launchpad.net (ubuntu's bug database) for a previous report like yours. If you don't find anything, report one yourself, using the same format as in the bug report link I gave. Oh, and if you are using Breezy, you could also download Dapper Release Candidate, and see if it works.
[07:55] <trevor> ok...
[07:55] <drew> dangit bad rom dump
[07:56] <skippy81> trevor you have to just type a few letters of start of what you are looking for, then press tab twice
[07:56] <skippy81> try again
[07:56] <StR> jobezone: it is in dapper
[07:56] <skippy81> i would do it myself, but i really cant install the ati drivers on my machine ive got enough stuff on it as it is lol
[07:56] <trevor> skippy81, still nothing
[07:56] <trevor> i type "flgrz" then press tab twice?
[07:57] <trevor> no enters?
[07:57] <skippy81> yes no enters
[07:57] <skippy81> trevor try this, open synaptic
[07:57] <trevor> ok
[07:57] <skippy81> lol trever wait
[07:57] <trevor> kk
[07:57] <skippy81> its not "flgrz" its "fglrx"
[07:58] <drew> sweet got a working rom dump
[07:58] <trevor> did i type it wrong?
[07:58] <skippy81> think of it as "fire GL RX"
[07:58] <jobezone> StR: ahh.. I searched for '82801G' in launchpad, and there was a bug submitted concerning it: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/44338
[07:58] <trevor> there!
[07:58] <Larsson-Sweden> When using gtk-theme-switcher , i can choose Clearlooks in the menu, but when clicking i apply, i get the error message: larsson@ubuntu:~ $ switch2
[07:58] <Larsson-Sweden> /home/larsson/.gtkrc-2.0:2: Unable to find include file: "(null)/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
[07:59] <Larsson-Sweden> Any ideas?
[07:59] <trevor> skippy81, i got this "fglrxinfo     fglrx_xgamma"
[07:59] <skippy81> how annoying, so obvously that package doesnt contain a gui interface
[07:59] <l__> can someone tell me why i cannot find glib anywhere in the repos?
[07:59] <trevor> yaya
[07:59] <drew> man computing at its finest
[07:59] <linchriss> Why does some apps look like crap?
[07:59] <linchriss> its like the fonts have been streched out or somthing
[08:00] <skippy81> ok try this trever. open synaptic and search for "fglrx-control" when you find it right click and read its properties
[08:00] <l__> i have another question too, when i select subpuixel smoothing for my fonts i get weird colors and distortion on the fonts, anyone know why?
[08:00] <skippy81> it should list the files it contained
[08:00] <trevor> ok
[08:00] <jobezone> StR: perhaps you could comment on that bug report, and confirm it for your hardware (point out which laptop it is, if it is in fact a laptop). Also, the reporter gave a few links on ways users using other distributions solved it (it may not be easy).
[08:00] <skippy81> we are looking for an executable file inside it
[08:00] <NoUse> l__ probably because you aren't looking hard enough :-)
[08:00] <skippy81> im postive ive seen ATI people with a graphical catalyst style configuration utility running under gnome
[08:00] <StR> jobezone: man!  you are the man!!!
[08:00] <jobezone> StR: you're probably desperate by now, so yeah, things like these suck a bit!
[08:01] <trevor> skippy81, in the installed files tab?
[08:01] <l__> NoUse: i have both universe and multiverse enabled in my repos and i cannot find the package
[08:01] <NoUse> l__ its already installed
[08:01] <skippy81> search tab
[08:01] <jobezone> StR: yeah!!! Nahh, just used to doing that myself! (seeing the chipset, then search with it on cyberspace)
[08:01] <skippy81> and do search
[08:01] <NoUse> l__ it needs to be installed for ubuntu to run
[08:01] <trevor> i found the properties for fglrx-control...
[08:02] <l__> NoUse: i got an error while trying to compile a program saying it was not
[08:02] <drew> hey skippy wats a n64 emu that is in synapatic or apt-get
[08:02] <NoUse> l__ you need the dev libs
[08:02] <NoUse> l__ its call libglib... search for that
[08:02] <StR> jobezone: how do I contact the man who posted the bug?
[08:02] <skippy81> i doubt one exists drew
[08:02] <skippy81> snes maybe
[08:02] <drew> I got snes
[08:03] <drew> both snes9x and zsnes
[08:03] <skippy81> ok trevor do you see any files listed under "installed files"
[08:03] <drew> and vba
[08:03] <l__> anyone know why i get distortion when using subpixel smoothing for my fonts? i never got that on previous installs
[08:03] <trevor> yes
[08:03] <jobezone> StR: you can't, I guess.
[08:03] <trevor> skippy81, http://pastebin.com/747224
[08:03] <jobezone> StR: why do you want to contact him=
[08:03] <jobezone> ?
[08:04] <l__> NoUse: i already have that installed
[08:04] <StR> jobezone: maybe he compiled the alsa pkg with the patch
[08:04] <nicolas_> does anyone knows a substitute for skypemate, because skypemate will probably never work under ubuntu i guess we have some kind of replacements ?
[08:04] <errordeveloper> how to make sure that network interfaces will be UP on next boot ?
[08:05] <kspath> nicolas_: apt-cache search skype else search engine
[08:05] <skippy81> trevor type "fireglcontrol"
[08:05] <trevor> ok
[08:05] <nicolas_> kspath: all done
[08:05] <skippy81> stupid ati i hate them so much, why not give it a matching name with the drivers lol
[08:05] <trevor> skippy81, still nothing
[08:05] <skippy81> says it cant find it?
[08:05] <jobezone> StR: ah.. you could comment on the bug, saying this happens to you too, and specyfing your laptop (it is one, right?). This would be good, because the bug is still marked as unconfirmed. Then, you could ask if he has a patched alsa package available.
[08:06] <nicolas_> how come do i need skypemate to make work my usb phone ?
[08:06] <StR> jobezone: ok, I will
[08:06] <Otsego_> Is there any way I can install .rpm packages in Ubuntu?
[08:06] <l__> does ubuntu come with gtk installed? i cannot find it in the repos
[08:06] <nicolas_> isnt it just a speaker and microphone, the speaker already works, only the mic is missing
[08:06] <kspath> Otsego_: apt-cache search rpm
[08:06] <NoUse> l__ its installed, what are you trying to compile?
[08:06] <skippy81> trevor, have a look in your gnome menu for the control panel icon, maybe it will be under applications menu
[08:06] <Otsego_> kspath, I found KPackage something
[08:07] <kspath> Otsego_: you should try to avoid it.
[08:07] <Otsego_> but it wont open the file
[08:07] <l__> NoUse:  gaim beta 3
[08:07] <trevor> skippy81, what does the control panel icon look like?
[08:07] <kspath> Otsego_: you should try to avoid rpm and rather try to get deb
[08:07] <skippy81> no idea trevor, ive never seen it
[08:07] <NoUse> l__ how are you searching the repos?
[08:07] <skippy81> i use nvidia
[08:07] <trevor> aww ok
[08:07] <Otsego_> I know, but there is no deb of this package
[08:07] <l__> NoUse: synaptic
[08:07] <Otsego_> but Ill try something else
[08:07] <Otsego_> BRB
[08:07] <skippy81> i swear, i will never buy an ati product again after all the linux issues ive seen
[08:07] <skippy81> :_
[08:08] <skippy81> hehe
[08:08] <trevor> :(
[08:08] <Rambo3> skippy81: did you read ati comments about linux?
[08:08] <NoUse> l__ its libgtk
[08:08] <skippy81> well i know that they think various open source products are a deadend
[08:08] <NoUse> l__ most libraries start with lib
[08:09] <l__> NoUse: according to synaptic i already have it installed
[08:09] <skippy81> i would love to read em if you have a link Rambo3
[08:09] <Rambo3> NoUse: /J #ubuntu-trivia
[08:09] <jobezone> StR: you'll probably have to register at launchpad. And, if you don't get any answer, or a patched alsa package from the submitter of the bug report, you'll either have to wait for a fix ( :/ ), or patch it yourself...
[08:09] <NoUse> l__ you need the dev packages
[08:09] <StR> jobezone: I already posted a comment
[08:09] <trevor> skippy81, i can't find anything
[08:09] <skippy81> ok mate, im sorry im out of ideas im afraid
[08:10] <trevor> ok
[08:10] <skippy81> ask around about how to get the control panel up
[08:10] <l__> NoUse: thanks
[08:10] <skippy81> sorry trevor, i did try :(
[08:10] <trevor> ya
[08:10] <trevor> thanks a bunch tho
[08:10] <StR> jobezone: I will write to this philipp    maybe he already has a patched  alsa  to install as a .deb in ubuntu
[08:11] <skippy81> at least your computer is in a better state than mine the time i did "rm -r /" and deleted 60gb of movies and music :)
[08:11] <Some_Person> Hey
[08:12] <Some_Person> Why wont usplash work?
[08:12] <skippy81> brb
[08:13] <NoUse> Some_Person it probably doesn't like you
[08:13] <NoUse> :-)
[08:13] <Some_Person> And how do I remove that message after login with the little icons?
[08:13] <NoUse> Some_Person did you change something or has it never worked?
[08:13] <Some_Person> lol, nouse
[08:13] <Some_Person> never worked
[08:13] <Some_Person> i use LILO
[08:13] <NoUse> Some_Person thats probably why
[08:13] <Some_Person> really?
[08:13] <NoUse> Some_Person if you feel comfortable ediitng your lilo.conf, you need to pass a boot option of 'splash' I believe
[08:14] <Rambo3> Some_Person: i was going to say grub ,emu . but you probobly misscongifured lilo
[08:14] <Rambo3> menu
[08:14] <Some_Person> ok
[08:14] <Some_Person> I'm comfortable
[08:14] <Some_Person> How do i do that?
[08:14] <Rambo3> you ll have to add lines for spalash screen.
[08:15] <Some_Person> what lines?
[08:15] <Some_Person> and where in the file?
[08:15] <Rambo3> and rerun liloconfig . Last i used lilo was on redhat 7.2
[08:15] <kemik> !postgresql
[08:15] <ubotu> kemik: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:15] <kemik> !postgres
[08:15] <ubotu> kemik: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:15] <NthDegree> Some_Person:  why use LILO? GRUB is much easier
[08:15] <linchriss> some gtk apps looks wierd.. not like the screenshots on the net?
[08:15] <linchriss> why?
[08:15] <Larsson-Sweden> Am i the only one with flash problems in Linux? Flash is working with sound, but after a while the sound lags behind.
[08:15] <Some_Person> I can't get GRUB to install.
[08:15] <Some_Person> And I don't think GRUB works with BootPart
[08:16] <linchriss> e.g ardour
[08:16] <NthDegree> BootPart?
[08:16] <pally> my Flash doesnt have sound at all
[08:16] <linchriss> and NeroLinux
[08:16] <jobezone> StR: ok, good luck then! On, and he also mentioned that it's already fixed in alsa 1.0.11 . You can get it here : ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.11.tar.bz2
[08:16] <Some_Person> BootPart allows you to boot to other partitions with NTLDR (Windows MBR)
[08:17] <NthDegree> GRUB supports booting everything
[08:17] <NthDegree> GRUB can boot windows
[08:17] <Some_Person> I want to keep the Windows MBR.
[08:17] <NthDegree> YOU WHAT?
[08:17] <NthDegree> WHY?
[08:17] <walkover> when i start xffm it put icons on my desktop, which is fine. But it also removes my background image. Does anyone know how to have both icons ang background image?
[08:17] <Some_Person> So BootPart loads LILO on hda6.
[08:18] <Rambo3> Some_Person: you need to run  "grub-install  /dev/hda1" if you only want it for linux parition
[08:18] <Some_Person> And even so, the GRUB install always fails.
[08:18] <crimsun> don't bother with 1.0.11, I've already backported it to our kernel
[08:18] <Some_Person> Tried that
[08:18] <Some_Person> I gave up on GRUB.
[08:18] <Some_Person> I have LILO working fine
[08:18] <jobezone> StR: it just won't be as easy as installing a .deb . It has a INSTALL file inside, which explains how to install it.
[08:19] <titan> I don't like LILO, I just went grub, it's all automatic
[08:19] <wilem> Has anyone tried play WoW with XGL + Compiz installed?
[08:19] <Some_Person> I dont know how to install DEB files? Can you tell me? I want to install WINE without internet in ubuntu
[08:19] <graft> wilem: try #ubuntu-xgl
[08:19] <navas> elou
[08:19] <wilem> thanks
[08:20] <titan> quick question, how do I set the permission on a whole folder of files again?
[08:20] <navas>  no
[08:20] <graft> chown <whatever> *
[08:20] <NthDegree> Some_Person:  try the package manager
[08:20] <soundray> titan: man chmod (look for the -R option)
[08:20] <graft> err chmod, not chown
[08:20] <PPower> i think my login problem is computer related, suse refuses to come up too though this time it is a fraction before the login
[08:20] <kspath> titan: man chmod ; man chown; man ls
[08:20] <KenSentMe> Some_Person: try sudo dpkg -i package.deb
[08:20] <titan> Thanks guys
[08:20] <navas> is hispaa
[08:20] <Some_Person> Just opening the DEB file fails
[08:21] <KenSentMe> !es
[08:21] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[08:21] <NthDegree> Some_Person: <KenSentMe> try sudo dpkg -i package.deb
[08:21] <graft> man ls?
[08:21] <Some_Person> Thanks
[08:21] <Some_Person> Now, how do I make LILO load USPLASH
[08:21] <KenSentMe> Some_Person: your welcome ;)
[08:22] <PPower> some_person: it will do it automaticaly as long as usplash is installed
[08:22] <Some_Person> It doesn't.
[08:22] <Some_Person> And I'm sure it's installed
[08:23] <Crescendo> Join http://gwing.net
[08:23] <PPower> ah. since i cant use linux right now i am stumped. i use grub myself.
[08:23] <Crescendo> Whoops.
[08:23] <Crescendo> Wrong server, guys.  My bad.
[08:23] <NthDegree> Some_Person:  You need to run LILO after each update before you reboot or else the add-on/update won't work
[08:23] <NthDegree> Some_Person: Hence why LILO is inferior to GRUB
[08:23] <PPower> agreed
[08:24] <Some_Person> NthDegree: So I just go to Terminal and type in "sudo lilo"?
[08:24] <NthDegree> Some_Person: I'm not sure, different instructions for each thing
[08:24] <graft> NthDegree: err what? update won't work?
[08:24] <graft> NthDegree: where did you get that idea?
[08:24] <PPower> does anyone have any idea why my nforce motherboard with onboard ck804 sound would cause login problems?
[08:25] <Some_Person> NthDegree: What do I type in Terminal?
[08:25] <crimsun> PPower: what sort?
[08:25] <NthDegree> graft, I mean that you need to run LILO for every major thing that affects the boot
[08:25] <Crescendo> Anyone have a recommendation for setting up Ubuntu/Windows dual boot? | Should I use GRUB or NTLoader?  | Two HDDs or one?
[08:25] <NthDegree> Some_Person,  I don't use LILO so I don't know
[08:25] <graft> NthDegree: um. sure, but that doesn't apply to 99.9% of updates
[08:25] <graft> Some_Person: yeah sudo lilo will do it
[08:25] <Some_Person> Shouldn't it already be configured? LILO is the last thing to install from the CD.
[08:25] <PPower> when i log in all i get is a brown screen and a sound effect, no splah. suse doesnt even get on to the login screen
[08:25] <NthDegree> Crescendo, use GRUB as it works better than windows MBR
[08:25] <planetcall> Crescendo, Grub
[08:26] <Some_Person> I need the Windows MBR.
[08:26] <NthDegree> planetcall: great minds think alike :)
[08:26] <graft> Crescendo: use two HDDs... if you need to reinstall windows it might get hairy otherwise
[08:26] <planetcall> Crescendo, Grub can do all your windows will do in coming 10 years
[08:26] <aLPHa_LeaK> Some_Person: use grub with the chainloader +1 option
[08:26] <Some_Person> And I can't get GRUB to install at all.
[08:26] <dizy> i followed the guide on wiki to install nvidia drivers... but after i restart x it doesn't want to.. i checked the xorg.conf and the video section had a wrong identifier... i have a geforce6200 but it was showing Radeon 7000... the driver however was correct "nvidia" ... anyone know why ?
[08:26] <NthDegree> Some_Person:  Why do you, you don't need the Windows MBR
[08:26] <dizy> btw.. this is on dopper
[08:26] <Some_Person> My dad has Linuxphoebia.
[08:27] <dizy> dapper*
[08:27] <graft> Some_Person: just don't tell him the bootloader is linux
[08:27] <planetcall> Some_Person, I had it as well before I used Ubuntu
[08:27] <NthDegree> Some_Person: LMFAO, well does he have NSAphobia?
[08:27] <PPower> dizy: hmm. ovioulsy my fix didnt work. im downloading dapper now to see if i can fix my login trouble
[08:27] <Some_Person> I have it set to ask me for one second for Ubunty or Windows XP.
[08:27] <aLPHa_LeaK>  gd'evn
[08:27] <capgadget> Wait until he sees the $650 Office 2007 and $350-$450 M$ Vista prices Some_Person.
[08:27] <Some_Person> lol
[08:27] <planetcall> capgadget, He can torrent it all for free !
[08:27] <planetcall> :P
[08:28] <ShastaMaroon> They're not going to sell any at $350-450
[08:28] <graft> dizy: i think the identifier doesn't matter anyway...
[08:28] <Some_Person> My dad has Non-MS-OS'sPhoebia
[08:28] <amphi> Some_Person: perhaps he'd like plan 9...
[08:28] <PPower> crimsun: what do you think?
[08:28] <planetcall> Stop piracy and go for FOSS
[08:28] <NthDegree> Some_Person: Windows has backdoors made by the NSA and GRUB can do everything you need to sort out windows and Linux systems on one HDD
[08:28] <dizy> graft, yea i thought so to.. but either way it wasn't loading.. not sure why
[08:28] <graft> dizy: what does X die with?
[08:28] <Some_Person> I have a 6-partitioned HD
[08:28] <Some_Person> Is that OK?
[08:28] <crimsun> PPower: have you tried booting with noapic or pci=noacpi?
[08:29] <ShastaMaroon> NthDegree How do you know there are backdoors by the NSA?
[08:29] <amphi> Some_Person: odd numbers of partitions are better
[08:29] <PPower> hmm. i only have suse right now but how do you do it?
[08:29] <Some_Person> 6 is even/
[08:29] <graft> ShastaMaroon: this is a well-known rumor about Microsoft... um lemme find a link
[08:29] <NthDegree> ShastaMaroon: I'll Private Message you all the info.
[08:29] <dizy> not sure... it asks if i want to see the detailed info and theres quite a lot of info.. duno what to pay attention to
[08:29] <skippy81> dizy did you computer actually get into xwindows?
[08:29] <ShastaMaroon> graft, NthDegree, thanks
[08:29] <amphi> Some_Person: I was joking
[08:29] <zach> What is a dock bar type program for ubunutu (like osx dock)?
[08:29] <EmxBA> hi
[08:29] <dizy> no
[08:29] <Some_Person> lol
[08:29] <kemik> !backports
[08:29] <ubotu> somebody said backports was Add "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-backports main universe multiverse restricted" (without the ") to /etc/apt/sources.list.  More info @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports
[08:29] <capgadget> Has anyone tried 6.06-RC in vmware?  Seems to get hung onthe timezone selection.
[08:29] <EmxBA> skippy, are you skippy_ from yesterday
[08:29] <graft> ShastaMaroon: http://www.networkworld.com/newsletters/sec/0927sec2.html
[08:30] <skippy81> yes :) and skippy81
[08:30] <kspath> zach: apt-cache search dock
[08:30] <dizy> skippy,  i had to get back to the backup xorg file to get back in
[08:30] <ShastaMaroon> thanks graft
[08:30] <Some_Person> I want USPLASH
[08:30] <capgadget> LOL might as well wait 1-2 more days anyway.
[08:30] <Some_Person> How do I configure LILO for it?
[08:30] <graft> dizy: look at your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:30] <PPower> dont use lilo is what i say
[08:30] <EmxBA> skippy81: i'm glad to see you
[08:30] <graft> dizy: the last few lines should tell you why it crapped out
[08:30] <Some_Person> GRUB is beta software
[08:30] <planetcall> Hey its midnight here....how should I greet ? GoodMidnight ? or will Good evening do ?
[08:30] <EmxBA> Some_Preson: you mean vootsplash, right
[08:31] <EmxBA> GRUB i splashable
[08:31] <graft> dizy: although the most obvious reason would be your kernel module didn't load properly
[08:31] <Some_Person> No, I mean USPLASH
[08:31] <skippy81> thankyou EmxBA :)
[08:31] <EmxBA> planetcall: not everywhere, my time is 20:31
[08:31] <PPower> planetcall: 19:31 over here ;)
[08:31] <EmxBA> skippy81:oh, never minds
[08:31] <EmxBA> can i private you
[08:31] <jobezone> ShastaMaroon: and for Vista something funny also happened. First, someone from microsoft sent a press release (or simillar) saying that the next windows would conform with police guidelines in the world, and provide them with acess in some way to windows machines. Later, a microsoft developer in his blog said it wouldn't have such a thing. My guess is that this last one thought (correctly), that why it would be good PR for police forces around the world,
[08:31] <dizy> graft, the last 3 lines are all the same... ProcXCloseDevice to close or not ?
[08:31] <planetcall> yeah...but how should I greet it for my time :P....can u tell me
[08:31] <Marlun> When viewing my routers DHCP-Table the connected computers show up and the ones with windows on them also has a host name, but the server with ubuntu on it doesn't have anything under host name, why is that?
[08:32] <zach> only thing i found was for kde---- kooldock - Dock for KDE with cool visual enhancements
[08:32] <EmxBA> planetcall: hi folks, that's ok :D
[08:32] <planetcall> nevermind ! Goodmidnight to all of you :)
[08:32] <EmxBA> thanks
[08:32] <planetcall> enjoy !
[08:32] <skippy81> ok dizy, i have a 6200 in my machine, so i can pretty much copy my xorg file for you
[08:32] <kubuntu> I was wondering.. I'm running a dual boot with kubuntu and windoze, is there a way where i can edit the fstab so i can get into my windoze partition?
[08:32] <planetcall> kubuntu you can
[08:33] <rolando> Hello"
[08:33] <skippy81> but i think the reason your boot failed is because your kernel driver did not match your xdriver dizy
[08:33] <skippy81> the message that x gave when it failed is very important
[08:33] <dizy> so what should i do ?
[08:33] <apokryphos> kubuntu: /msg ubotu ntfs
[08:33] <rolando> Any one can help me please...?
[08:33] <graft> dizy: does your nvidia kernel mod load ok?
[08:33] <EmxBA> !ntfs
[08:33] <ubotu> ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions there is no write support for ntfs that is safe.
[08:33] <rolando> I dont remember th IRC Channel of the COuncil
[08:33] <dizy> graft, not sure .. tell me how to check
[08:33] <planetcall> kubuntu,  see what i did for a window partition  ->       /dev/hdb6       /mnt/download   ntfs    auto,owner,exec,umask=000       0      0
[08:33] <phosphor> hey, anyone running ubuntu from an external hdd here?
[08:33] <graft> dizy: just type lsmod
[08:34] <skippy81> dizy can you link me the guide you used please, that way I can easily see what youve attempted to do
[08:34] <EmxBA> phosphor: i assume no
[08:34] <kubuntu> planetcall ok got cha! thanks =)
[08:34] <planetcall> yw !
[08:34] <NoUse> rolando what council?
[08:34] <phosphor> EmxBA: looks like it
[08:34] <planetcall> goodmidnight!
[08:34] <didimo> hola  a todos
[08:34] <dizy> skippy, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?
[08:34] <phosphor> just that i am, and im a bit scared to update to dapper
[08:34] <dizy> skippy, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[08:35] <phosphor> cos, I had a lot of trouble getting it to work with breezy in the first place
[08:35] <PPower> crimsun: no luck yet
[08:35] <saxin> you don't have to upgrade.. breezy is still working ;)
[08:35] <skippy81> ok dizy are you using dapper or breezy?
[08:35] <PPower> ill try disabling onboard sound
[08:35] <crimsun> PPower: is this on breezy or dapper?
[08:36] <PPower> breezy and SUSE 9.3
[08:36] <crimsun> PPower: you should try dapper
[08:36] <planetcall> phosphor, its a personal opinion....if yr breezy is working fine then you may stick with it. BWT.....i am using Breezy as well for now.
[08:36] <PPower> so it looks like a hardware thing
[08:36] <zach> can anyone help me enable dual monitors with ati 9500 NP and nvidia nforce 2 motherboard
[08:36] <PPower> ill try tommorow. ill disable sound and see how i get on
[08:36] <EmxBA> zach: what's the problem
[08:36] <delta> Hi.
[08:36] <delta> I'm having trouble with frequencies under the nvidia driver 87.62.
[08:36] <PPower> crimsun: how does ubuntu express work. is it good enough to give xp a run for its money ;)
[08:37] <Blue89> I am experiencing monitor problems with a  desktop that has ubuntu 5.10. is there a key combination I can use to shut down the computer properly with my mouse?
[08:37] <Hso> question, when mounting windows partitions, i read somewhere it about not being "safe" to write to it.. does that mean it could damage the partition, or it's vunerable to hackers?
[08:37] <dizy> graft,  i see "nvidia               4550772  0"
[08:37] <phosphor> planetcall, yeah breezy is doing me fine at the minute, just i would like to get my hands on some of the nice dapper features
[08:37] <dizy> skippy, dapper
[08:37] <planetcall> try live CD
[08:37] <PPower> thats the new isntaller one isnt it
[08:37] <HymnToLife> phosphor> why not upgrade then ?
[08:37] <planetcall> or for that reason you may go for an upgrade
[08:37] <skippy81> dizy open a terminal, and type the following: "sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` linux-restricted-modules-common nvidia-glx nvidia-settings nvidia-kernel-common".  Paste the output to http://pastebin.com/ please
[08:38] <NoUse> Blue89 Ctrl+Alt+F1 will take you to a terminal and then Ctrl+atl+delete will reboot
[08:38] <PPower> DO NOT UPGRADE. Sorry for shouting but loads of peoples boxes has been screwed up by upgrades
[08:38] <skippy81> once that is done you should have a 'clean' system
[08:38] <EmxBA> hey
[08:38] <EmxBA> does anyone know why espresso is so buggy
[08:38] <phosphor> HymnToLife: im running ubuntu completely from an external hdd, which can complicate booting a LOT
[08:38] <zach> I installed fglrx driver with synaptic..but i dont think its set as default driver.... then when i try aticonfig it says to run initial but that doesnt work because driver is not set to default and I had this once but set to dual monitor when it should just be set to one large monitor(horizontal) because it just set up 2 separte x windows
[08:38] <PPower> 8-[[08:38] <PPower> its buggy?
[08:38] <EmxBA> while installing, it disables swap partition (swapoff) and everything goes to hell
[08:38] <delta> skippy81: sorry, did you se my question? it's related to nvidia.
[08:38] <PPower> um...
[08:39] <PPower> i think osnews got it ok
[08:39] <skippy81> could you repeat it pls delta, i can see it above
[08:39] <EmxBA> PPower: what could I do
[08:39] <planetcall> phosphor, I am having 2 HDD. Primary is an old 20GB one with Breezy and another one is 80GB with Windows............it is in many ways better to have 2 HDD
[08:39] <EmxBA> it just crashes
[08:39] <NoUse> EmxBA how much RAM to you have?
[08:39] <skippy81> dizy once you have done step 1), do this :"sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`"
[08:39] <EmxBA> 256
[08:39] <EmxBA> :D
[08:39] <Blue89> NoUse, ty I will type shutdown in the terminal, that should work
[08:39] <dizy> skippy, http://pastebin.com/747336
[08:39] <EmxBA> NoUse: can i private you?
[08:40] <NoUse> EmxBA I'd prefer not
[08:40] <NoUse> EmxBA I'd report a bug if its a crashing
[08:40] <delta> skippy81: I'm having trouble with frequencies under the nvidia driver 87.62. They're too low. It worked well with previous version (shiped with Breezy) and "nv" worked good as well. What can I do?
[08:40] <zach> EmxBA: can you privately help me out...?
[08:40] <phosphor> planetcall: i have a laptop with win on the internal, but the drive is almost too small for a dual boot
[08:40] <EmxBA> NoUse: than we will spam the main channel
[08:40] <skippy81> good dizy step one went fine, now do step 2
[08:40] <EmxBA> zach: yes
[08:40] <phosphor> plus i want to build a desktop and slot the external drive in it at a later date
[08:40] <skippy81> delta, i think it is a known issue, my refresh is locked at 75
[08:41] <phosphor> so ill have my working system straight away
[08:41] <delta> skippy81: !
[08:41] <dizy> skippy, http://pastebin.com/747342
[08:41] <EmxBA> on first beta 6.06 it works fine till starting gparted, tha it disables my swap, because i have only 256 MB of RAM, everything...dies
[08:41] <skippy81> oh sorry delta  you mean clock speed frequencys? or monitor refresh?
[08:41] <EmxBA> but on flight 7 I get error with python
[08:41] <delta> skippy81: monitor refresh
[08:41] <EmxBA> something in /usr/bin/python
[08:41] <didimo> alguien de ecuador
[08:42] <EmxBA> undefined something
[08:42] <skippy81> delta, the more info about your monitor you can get the better
[08:42] <skippy81> dizy ok good job
[08:42] <NoUse> EmxBA have you tried the RC?
[08:42] <EmxBA> NoUse, no i haven't
[08:43] <EmxBA> i have dialup
[08:43] <EmxBA> :(
[08:43] <delta> skippy81: but, it worked with these settings before, that's why I'm surprised.
[08:43] <skippy81> now i want you do "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[08:43] <NoUse> EmxBA well then we can't confirm that this problem still exists
[08:43] <planetcall> dialup exists ?
[08:43] <skippy81> delta, that is strange, is there anyway that the nvidia program overwrote your settings
[08:43] <Besso> When turning on ESD ther comes no voice on my flashplyer
[08:44] <EmxBA> NoUse, no i have dialup, ti would take days to download RC
[08:44] <EmxBA> i got flight 7 from my friends :D
[08:44] <skippy81> dizy when its open, i want you to save a copy as xorg-backup.conf, then i want you to paste the file to pastebin and i will edit it for you
[08:44] <dizy> http://pastebin.com/747354
[08:44] <NoUse> EmxBA I'm just saying, this may have been fixed
[08:44] <skippy81> delta,  i dont suppose you use xgl/compiz by any chance?
[08:45] <skippy81> it is possible to override the default refrest with compiz
[08:45] <EmxBA> NoUse: maybe there were problems with making flight 7
[08:45] <delta> skippy81: I just edited xorg.conf to be sure :) Do you want to check any detail? No, just Xorg :)
[08:45] <NoUse> EmxBA Flights are alpha releases
[08:45] <EmxBA> i know
[08:45] <SurfnKid> hey guys how many desktops you think any pc can handle, i have 8 now
[08:45] <SurfnKid> workspaces
[08:45] <NoUse> EmxBA you can use the text-mode install CD, that doesn't require much memory
[08:46] <maruchan> if upgrade today, do i still have to update on the 1st
[08:46] <Besso> dose enyone know how to solve the problem with a webcam with microfon that takes over my soundcard

[08:49] <skippy81> dizy: if you fail to start x again, please try and note down the errors x gives you
[08:49] <NoUse> Besso it probably needs more question marks

[08:51] <grndslm> RancidLM, I think you're talking about a domain controller
[08:51] <g-nome> just saw a screenshot of vista - I'm impressed by the sidebar! Is there any way to get this "rss-reader" sidebar. or  a skin for the gdesklets-clock? Here the screenshot: http://scr3.golem.de/?d=0602/Windows_Vista&a=45506&s=6
[08:51] <zach> can anyone help me setup dual monitors
[08:52] <phosphor> Besso: looks like a no
[08:52] <kspath> Is there an ubuntu channel that does not mention M$ products every few minutes?
[08:53] <g-nome> hey it's good to compare
[08:53] <DevilsAdvocate> speaking of which
[08:53] <ompaul> kspath, they loose time and again :)
[08:53] <skippy81> g-nome ive seen better results done with gdesklets
[08:53] <g-nome> and the rss-reader is really cool i have to admit
[08:53] <DevilsAdvocate> is there a good way to access my ntfs hds?
[08:53] <planetcall> Good Exists.........because there is something bad !
[08:53] <DevilsAdvocate> i already mounted them
[08:53] <ompaul> !stfs
[08:53] <ubotu> ompaul: My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:53] <DevilsAdvocate> but they're read online
[08:53] <Besso> I will be glad if you can help phosphor
[08:53] <ompaul> !ntfs
[08:53] <ubotu> ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions there is no write support for ntfs that is safe.
[08:53] <g-nome> skippy81: i'm just interested in the rss reader and the clock
[08:53] <delta> skippy81: certainly, it worked like a charm with Breezy :)
[08:53] <grndslm> g-nome, did you search google?
[08:53] <phosphor> Besso: what is the make of the webcam?
[08:54] <planetcall> DevilsAdvocate, /dev/hdb6       /mnt/download   ntfs    auto,owner,exec,umask=000       0      0
[08:54] <g-nome> grndslm: the internet is vast$
[08:54] <skippy81> g-nome http://gdesklets.gnomedesktop.org/categories.php?func=gd_show_app_list&gd_sub_app_list=13
[08:54] <zach> is gdesklets like osx dock?
[08:54] <monk> hi, i have a problem with ubuntu 5.10 and acer travelmate 2354LCi
[08:54] <planetcall> edit your fstab DevilsAdvocate
[08:54] <phosphor> g-nome: take a look at gdesklets, lovely and open source :P
[08:54] <fuba> is there an ubuntu equivelant of fedora's system-config-display?
[08:54] <nox-Hand> Does anyone know a program that can record my desktops stuff?
[08:54] <skippy81> delta, well you could pastebin your xorg.conf and ill have a look, but personally i would blame the drivers
[08:54] <graft> that's Vista? holy cow, they totally ripped off Mac OS-X
[08:54] <nox-Hand> I wish to record an xgl demo.
[08:54] <monk> when i try to switch displays with FN+F5 it freezes
[08:54] <maruchan> gksudo "update-manager -d" are some fo the links down?
[08:55] <maruchan> i cant upgrade
[08:55] <node23> ye nox, frame buffer dumps glued together ;-p ( joking )
[08:55] <Besso> It is a Philis webcam .... and the built in microfon on it taks over my voicecard and then no sound comes from my computer
[08:55] <skippy81> yeah vista aero theme is basically a cheap ripoff of OSX, but you have to pay extra to get it lol
[08:55] <sindrum> whats gonna mack me want vista over xp?
[08:55] <sindrum> make**
[08:55] <delta> skippy81: http://pastebin.com/747387 :)
[08:55] <g-nome> skippy81: phosphor: thanks! i knew of gdesklets but never saw this site
[08:55] <planetcall>  graft.....remember the OS-X promo..?    Redmonds Start your Copiers !
[08:55] <node23> vista == hardware intense
[08:55] <g-nome> it's 10000 better than vista
[08:55] <phosphor> Besso: are you runing breezy?
[08:55] <grndslm> anybody know if the ubuntu would be able to support the core duo processor in the new macbooks?
[08:56] <Morrowyn> apple should free tiger from the apple hardware and let it run loose on pc hardware
[08:56] <sindrum> hardware intense
[08:56] <kspath> sindrum: What is going to make you want Dapper is you are asking about M$ product?
[08:56] <soundray> !info msttcorefonts dapper
[08:56] <ubotu> msttcorefonts: (Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts), section multiverse/x11, is optional. Version: 1.2ubuntu2 (dapper), Packaged size: 21 kB, Installed size: 164 kB
[08:56] <sindrum> ?
[08:56] <ompaul> !offtopic
[08:56] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[08:56] <grndslm> g-nome....it was the first link on google
[08:56] <Besso> no Dapper Drake
[08:56] <ompaul> !dapper
[08:56] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install,  or other conversation, dapper will be in #ubuntu starting 1st of june :-) But not until then
[08:56] <node23> ie: its hard on your hardware sindrum
[08:56] <sindrum> ohh...
[08:57] <skippy81> delta, one thing you could try: if you run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" towards the end of the process it asks if you want "advanced, medium or easy" monitor settings
[08:57] <dizy> skippy,  thanks that worked
[08:57] <yylex> hello.
[08:57] <node23> its min requirments are high apprently sindrum
[08:57] <skippy81> good dizy :) horray :)
[08:57] <nox-Hand> back
[08:57] <phosphor> so, when you use the webcam, you can't hear any other sounds?
[08:57] <skippy81> delta, if you go for the medium option, you can specify a given refresh rate and resolution
[08:57] <nox-Hand> Anyone?
[08:58] <skippy81> delta that may work
[08:58] <g-nome> grndslm: to be honest i never thought about GDesklets
[08:58] <Minty> how do i get a apt get NOT to look at my E ?? 'E: Couldn't find package azureus'
[08:58] <g-nome> search
[08:58] <delta> skippy81: thanks. Let me try that :)
[08:58] <alex19> para terminar mi sesion como termino?
[08:58] <dizy> skippy, one more q.   for my tablet to work i haveto do   sudo ln -s /dev/input/wacom /dev/wacom   but that resets every time i reboot... how can i make sure that the link stays
[08:58] <Besso> NO ..... there is nothing when the webcam is plugged in but when I unpluggit .... the sound works nicelly
[08:58] <grndslm> g-nome, i'll forgive you this time, since i just asked a question i easily found on google after changing my terminology
[08:58] <NoUse> Minty E means error there
[08:59] <NoUse> !tell Minty about azureus
[08:59] <phosphor> sounds like (mind the pun :P) its just a volume setting problem
[08:59] <delta> skippy81: oh, did you have a look at xorg;conf? anything wrong there?
[08:59] <wubrgamer> hey, how do i put icons.....like the trash can on my desktop ? i want to remove it from the panel and move it to the desktop
[08:59] <phosphor> when you plug the webcam in, open the volume control
[08:59] <Besso> no I have tryed everything
[08:59] <phosphor> right
[08:59] <phosphor> hmm
[09:00] <node23> ok now im worried :S my ubuntu install didnt ask me to set a root password X_x how the fock am i ment to drop to root with su now when i want to make changes only root can make
[09:00] <zerny> Hello, I am installing Dapper RC from a Desktop CD and having problems with the partitioning step of the installation. First, can one resize a ntfs partition with the graphical tool in Ubiquity? If so I am getting the error message: "Faild to create space for installation"
[09:00] <NoUse> !tell node23 about root
[09:00] <NoUse> !tell zerny about dapper
[09:00] <kspath> node23: sudo
[09:00] <eduardo> ola, sou virgem neste mundo
[09:00] <phosphor> im not sure to be honest Besso
[09:00] <eduardo> alguem pode me dar um help
[09:00] <node23> ah :-) happy again
[09:00] <NoUse> !br
[09:00] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[09:00] <LKRaider> eduardo: entre no canal ubuntu-br
[09:00] <kspath> !tell eduardo about br
[09:01] <skippy81> delta, your xorg conf looked ok to me
[09:01] <monk> !ro
[09:01] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, monk
[09:01] <phosphor> sorry :(
[09:01] <Besso> The problem is that Ubuntu makes the microfon in my webcam like its default voicecard .... but the microfon is no voicecard
[09:01] <eduardo> ok, vo procurar
[09:01] <Besso> and therfot no vouce
[09:01] <ciruzzo> hi
[09:01] <phosphor> right i see
[09:01] <skippy81> http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14 delta, lots of people mentioning refresh problems on this forum
[09:01] <ciruzzo> how can I read wma files on ubuntu?
[09:02] <NoUse> !wma
[09:02] <ubotu> restricted is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[09:02] <dizy> skippy81,  im trying to change my resolution but it doesn't allow me to go as high as I want.. only to 1024x768
[09:02] <Sammi84> install automatix on breezy or bumps on dapper
[09:02] <phosphor> i know very little about multimedia on ubuntu
[09:02] <spikeb> !automatix
[09:02] <ubotu> I guess automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, such as !easyubuntu.
[09:02] <spikeb> do no tuse it.
[09:02] <NoUse> Sammi84 don't recommend automatix
[09:02] <phosphor> automatix is a good idea, if it worked
[09:02] <Sammi84> hey it worked fine for me
[09:02] <ke> !easyubuntu
[09:02] <ubotu> easyubuntu is, like, an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/.
[09:02] <phosphor> i have a lot of broken installs from it
[09:03] <NoUse> phosphor easyubuntu is better
[09:03] <node23> Besso:May be likely your cam is using a chipset that has soundsupport but is not used, i had the same problem with my Trust Spacecam
[09:03] <node23> if that makes sense
[09:03] <Sammi84> I'll recomend it to anyone!
[09:03] <NoUse> Sammi84 its a really bad piece of sofware
[09:03] <NoUse> Sammi84 we recommend easyubuntu
[09:03] <Sammi84> if it works then it works and that's all I need
[09:03] <skippy81> dizy, can you pastebin you /etc/X11/xorg.conf for me again please?
[09:04] <skippy81> i will alter it for higher resolution
[09:04] <NoUse> Sammi84 but it has the potentially to severly break the system its on
[09:04] <Besso> Node23 how did you solved it?
[09:04] <errordeveloper> i have instlled ubuntu from stcratch , and evrything is set up fine already, but it doesnt wanna bring the eth0 up on boot .. what could be wrong ?
[09:04] <phosphor> NoUse: easyubuntu? havnt seen it before
[09:04] <NoUse> !tell phosphor about easyubuntu
[09:04] <NoUse> Sammi84 easy ubuntu does the same thing but much safer
[09:04] <skippy81> also dizy do you know what resolution you normally work at? is 1280x1024 good for you?
[09:05] <skippy81> the gnome resolution changers is useless i will have to write your res into xorg for you
[09:05] <eduardo> voltei, no sei como entrar no canal ubuntu - br
[09:05] <phosphor> NoUse: ill take a look, not that i need much of the software anymore anyway :P but its useful for codecs and stuff
[09:05] <delta> skippy81: ah, thanks for the link. Let me read there :)3
[09:05] <eduardo>  mas nem sei como
[09:05] <node23> Besso: I didnt, but that may not be the problem with yours, if you can find out what chipset your cam uses internaly you may be able to find out what the deal is
[09:05] <Sammi84> dude where do you get this from that Automatix is undafe?
[09:06] <brainlessbob> I have a .deb package. How do I run it?
[09:06] <Sammi84> *unsafe
[09:06] <skippy81> delta, you should have luck - i think i read there that if you define a "modeline" you can beat the 75hz limit
[09:06] <kspath> eduardo: solamente ingles
[09:06] <NoUse> !tell Sammi84 about automatic
[09:06] <NoUse> !tell Sammi84 about automatix
[09:06] <dizy> skippy81,  1920x1600     if theres a place that i can choose my monitor driver... i remember seeing it somewhere that its available.. im on the hp L2335
[09:06] <phosphor> brainlessbob: you have to install it
[09:06] <Besso> OK
[09:06] <brainlessbob> phosphor: how?
[09:06] <eduardo> ok, thanks
[09:06] <phosphor> look at the wiki
[09:07] <NoUse> Sammi84 take a look at the source code
[09:07] <Besso> It seems to be a good step to a solution
[09:07] <skippy81> lol dizy, are you sure your monitor can handle 1920x1600? is it a 23 inch?
[09:07] <brainlessbob> will do. thanks
[09:07] <dizy> yes.. 23"wide
[09:07] <skippy81> ok dizy, paste me your xorg conf
[09:07] <phosphor> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebInstaller?highlight=%28deb%29%7C%28install%29
[09:07] <errordeveloper> i have installed ubuntu from scratch , and evrything is set up fine already, but it doesnt wanna bring eth0 up on boot .. what could be wrong ?

[09:08] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: u still around?

[09:08] <delta> skippy81: oh, very interesting.  Thanks a lot for the help you're providing nicely to everybody here :)
[09:08] <errordeveloper> was it for me phosphor ?

[09:12] <grndslm> errordevloper, the forums might be a better place to let your question sit still for awhile and catch somebody with a little more networking knowledge
[09:13] <errordeveloper> i see, but i dont have a kernel related problem , it something to do with rc scripts, but it's not clear to me how the scripst work on ubuntu
[09:13] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT try 'sudo rmmod drm && sudo rmmod radeon'
[09:13] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT then try inserting the fglx module
[09:13] <CoOlGhOsT> ok.. lemme try that

[09:15] <mountingstuff> how can I mount a DOS parition??
[09:15] <phosphor> thugy: have you codecs installed?
[09:15] <dblpd> hi, does anyone in here know if banshee actually supports DAAP?
[09:15] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: cant... it says radeon is in use and drm depends on radeon
[09:15] <grndslm> I recommend that ubotu show a link to the wiki every 2 or 3 minutes!
[09:15] <mountingstuff> mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 /mnt
[09:15] <mountingstuff> mount: only root can do that
[09:15] <CoOlGhOsT> i think i need to reboot
[09:15] <mountingstuff> i receive that
[09:15] <CoOlGhOsT> brb
[09:15] <thugy> phosphor,  how do i do that?
[09:16] <lnostdal> mountingstuff, add sudo before the command
[09:16] <mountingstuff> oh! thks :P
[09:16] <phosphor> thugy: you can find them online yourself, but there are other pieces of software to do it for you
[09:16] <thugy> phosphor,  im saying cant i sudo for them or w/e
[09:16] <mountingstuff> /dev/hda5 already mounted or /mnt busy
[09:16] <thugy> or can you guiide me a site to get it from
[09:16] <mountingstuff> that means
[09:16] <mountingstuff> that is mounted?
[09:16] <thugy> im new to linux and trying to get accustom to it
[09:16] <Toba> can I use dpkg or apt-get to ask when a package was installed/what version it is?
[09:16] <phosphor> thugy: ill send you a link: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/index.html
[09:17] <lnostdal> (you can also use system -> administration -> disks .. that program will ask you for password)
[09:17] <mountingstuff> i've tried to run with wine
[09:17] <mountingstuff> and couldn't
[09:17] <planetcall> errordeveloper, for your rc scripts problem......try bum   link :  http://www.marzocca.net/linux/bum.html
[09:17] <Toba> I'd rather not use synaptic to find the version
[09:17] <thugy> phosphor,  thanks.
[09:17] <lnostdal> mountingstuff, check what is mounted, and where by typing mount
[09:17] <skippy81> dizy, http://pastebin.com/747446 remember to backup your old one again:)

[09:19] <monk> hi, anyone can help me with external vga on acer laptop?
[09:19] <PPower> back with my login trouble again. it isnt the ck804 audio controller. i guess it could be the pci-e or the graphics card now as i can log into a terminal
[09:20] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: its working... put fglrx in /etc/module
[09:20] <Lord_Athur> hi all
[09:20] <CoOlGhOsT> s
[09:20] <PPower> crimsun: your still here. ill try the dapper soon. it isnt the audio thing.
[09:20] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT yeah the probably was radeon has already claimed the card
[09:20] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT glad its working
[09:20] <Lord_Athur> I've got ubuntu 5.10 currently, where can I get the sources.list of drapper to upgrade?
[09:21] <ompaul> !upgrade
[09:21] <ubotu> I guess upgrade is Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades . Note command line: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the bleeding edge.
[09:21] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: yeah that would explain it
[09:21] <CoOlGhOsT> NoUse: me too... and thanks a whole bunch for helping!
[09:21] <|Tom|> did i d/c ?
[09:21] <NoUse> CoOlGhOsT no prob
[09:21] <ompaul> Lord_Athur,  please go to the channel #ubuntu+1 for the dapper help cheers it will be back here in 2 days
[09:21] <callie>  anyone here exprienced problems converting wma to mp3 using soundconverter?
[09:22] <kbrooks> what will happen on june 1
[09:22] <Noah0504> Yay!  Just two days until Dapper Final!  hehe, I'm already using Dapper and think it's the best thing since sliced bread.
[09:22] <kbrooks> Noah0504: hehe.
[09:22] <|Tom|> if only those ralink drivers would at least be a bit stable in dapper :(
[09:22] <ompaul> kbrooks, are you serious, dapper
[09:22] <skippy81> yeah dapper is quacking excellent :)
[09:23] <kbrooks> um
[09:23] <kbrooks> i am in fedora, but i should reboot to ubuntu :)
[09:23] <kbrooks> and update it...
[09:23] <kbrooks> so brb
[09:23] <ompaul> offtopic
[09:23] <kbrooks> ompaul: no, you mean +1
[09:23] <thugy> !nvidia
[09:23] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[09:23] <ompaul> kbrooks,  no your offtopic :-) your chatting
[09:24] <Otacon22> How can i see what is the power of my processor from the ubuntu shell?
[09:24] <Otacon22> ???
[09:24] <kspath> Otacon22: power?
[09:24] <Otacon22> hem
[09:24] <ompaul> Otacon22, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[09:24] <Otacon22> mhtz
[09:24] <Otacon22> tnz
[09:24] <monk> !laptop
[09:24] <ubotu> hmm... laptop is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops or http://www.linux-laptop.net/ or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam, or tuxmobil.org
[09:25] <PPower> any tips for my continuing login trouble?
[09:26] <skippy81> PPower what do you mean by login trouble please?
[09:26] <PPower> when i log in the brown screen comes up, sound plays and then it locks up with no splash screen. it is not the sound driver as i have tested that and suse has trouble too. i can log in to terminal
[09:26] <kspath> Otacon22: please turn that off
[09:27] <kspath> !tell Otacon22 about away
[09:28] <lurker99> PPower: system hardware is?
[09:28] <PPower> nforce 4 motherboard (foxconn ck804 one, there is only one) amd athlon 64 3200, xfx geforce 6600le on pci-e
[09:28] <PPower> ubuntu 5.10 x86 as i need flash and stuff
[09:29] <phosphor> just a minor annoyance, my breezy still plays the logon jingle even when its been cleared in the sound prefrences
[09:29] <phosphor> any idea how to turn it off, what config file its it?
[09:29] <delta> skippy81: in case it may help someone else: it finally worked :)
[09:29] <skippy81> PPower, before you enter your user name and password you should be able to choose a different session, see if there is a "safer" option
[09:29] <PPower> when i choose a option on the sessions menu it locks up
[09:29] <delta> skippy81: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=861453&postcount=18
[09:30] <phosphor> PPower: are you getting any error logs?
[09:30] <PPower> not that i can see. i can not quit x once it has locked up
[09:30] <PPower> though i can move the mouse
[09:30] <skippy81> delta, oh cool, you used the modeline thing then?
[09:30] <kspath> PPower: alt-ctrl-F1 works?
[09:30] <PPower> no
[09:30] <Lord_Athur>  mmm I need some cds, for me and for a lot of friends who want to use drapper, so I made requests for some cds with my account, can I get another account of launchpad for more cds?
[09:31] <skippy81> delta, maybe if you have chance you could post a mini how-to on www.ubuntuforums.org
[09:31] <delta> skippy81: modeline didn't suffice. I had to add 3 option lines in the Device section.
[09:31] <kspath> PPower: shift-alt-ctrl-F1 works?
[09:31] <PPower> no keyboard input can be used once it has locked up.
[09:31] <PPower> cant even ctrl+alt+backspace
[09:31] <delta> skippy81: my english is, well, ahm, how to say, very, very bad :)
[09:31] <kspath> PPower: always locks up in X ?
[09:32] <mnvl> stop being so modest delta :)
[09:32] <PPower> yeah. but it seems to be related to sound output
[09:32] <skippy81> hehe, seems allright to me :D well im glad you sorted it anyway delta
[09:32] <skippy81> those nividia/linux forums are very good
[09:32] <PPower> but turning off the onboard ck804 soudn makes no effect
[09:32] <lurker99> PPower: had a similar problem on an older labtop.  boot option 'acpi=off' solved it.  MNBYP though...
[09:32] <delta> mnvl: argh, au secours !
[09:32] <PPower> tried that on suse which was having the same problems with no effect
[09:32] <delta> what are you doing here mnvl?! :)
[09:32] <planetcall> past my bed time...GoodMidNight Once Again !
[09:33] <skippy81> PPower,  "noapic, nolapic" are good for laptop freezes
[09:33] <PPower> i have a desktop
[09:33] <skippy81> PPower, oh i see sorry :D
[09:33] <mnvl> stalking you.. not really. i installed ubuntu two days ago
[09:33] <delta> Thanks a lot for all your help, skippy81 :)
[09:33] <PPower> imagine a 3200+ in a laptop
[09:33] <skippy81> np delta, glad your all set now :)
[09:33] <delta> mnvl: dapper?
[09:33] <mnvl> breezy
[09:34] <delta> mnvl: dapper is due in... 2 days!
[09:34] <eyequeue> delta, with breakage in ... 1? ;)
[09:35] <PPower> skippy81: what do you think?
[09:35] <mnvl> i couldn't wait that long. wireless has been broken in my previous distro for roughly 6 months
[09:35] <skippy81> PPower, are you running dapper?
[09:35] <PPower> no.
[09:35] <eyequeue> mnvl, welcome to ubuntu btw ... everything as expected so far?
[09:36] <skippy81> I think that your best option is to download the dapperdrake RC1 desktop CD and try to run it in live mode
[09:36] <Noah0504> mnvl: What distro were you using before?
[09:36] <PlumTree> hello
[09:36] <PlumTree> I have just installed ubuntu and I do not know what to do :P Help
[09:36] <skippy81> you pc is pretty new PPower and you will probably have better support in dapper, i had stability problems in breezy also
[09:36] <PlumTree> I have some problems.
[09:36] <mnvl> eyequeue, all good thanx except windows file and printer sharing..
[09:36] <Noah0504> PlumTree: What are you problems?
[09:37] <PPower> skippy: thanks. ill try that. i have a thread on ubuntuforums. just search for nforce lockup
[09:37] <eyequeue> PlumTree, you appear to be in irc well :)  what is the next thing we can help with?
[09:37] <thugy> !tor
[09:37] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, thugy
[09:37] <skippy81> PPower, if you have a decent connection you should be able to download the cd in < 3 hours
[09:37] <PlumTree> Well, I am a girl :P
[09:37] <PPower> 1mbit.
[09:37] <thugy> !tell thugy tor
[09:37] <PPower> i am a bit tired now
[09:37] <PlumTree> :P
[09:37] <eyequeue> mnvl, sadly i'm no use with either, sorry
[09:37] <NoUse> PlumTree thats not usually considered a problem
[09:37] <thugy> how do i get tor?
[09:37] <PlumTree> Everything is so small
[09:37] <skippy81> PPower, just make sure you get the 'desktop' CD, it has a live mode so you can test without installing it
[09:37] <mnvl> eyequeue, i wasn't really expecting them to work, sadly..
[09:38] <skippy81> if it makes you feel better, i had issues running breezy also
[09:38] <T_CAN> ubotu tell T-CAN about boot manager
[09:38] <NoUse> PlumTree you mean like icons on the desktop are too small?
[09:38] <|Tom|> PlumTree: change your resolution or buy yourself a decent pair of glasses
[09:38] <|Tom|> (or get a bigger monitor :s)
[09:38] <PlumTree> I have to be closer and closer to the screen to see anything ;P
[09:38] <PPower> ok. the thread number is 184687 so it shouldnt be too hard to find it. thanks. if your not on ill post there. bye
[09:38] <eyequeue> mnvl, oh, i know others have done that, i just have zero experience with either .... "samba" is typically the first step
[09:38] <T_CAN> ubotu tell T-CAN about automount
[09:38] <PlumTree> my monitor is enough big :P 17' is ideal for me.
[09:38] <|Tom|> change your resolution then ;)
[09:39] <skippy81> i hate my 17inch, i have a 21 at home
[09:39] <PlumTree> I do not know what to do with this problem and how to increase the letters etc.
[09:39] <extern> where can I find a script file which would be executed each time ubuntu is loading?
[09:39] <NoUse> PlumTree System -> Prefs -> Screen Resolution and change it to a lower Resolution
[09:39] <PlumTree> |Tom|, how I can do this?
[09:39] <skippy81> extern,  what is your goal?
[09:39] <eyequeue> extern, /etc/init.d/*
[09:39] <phosphor> extern: ?
[09:39] <extern> to configure iptables
[09:39] <|Tom|> in ubuntu? Dunno ... am using KUbuntu ;)
[09:40] <|Tom|> isn't it somewhere in System or Utilities in your meny?
[09:40] <delta> skippy81: I'm on the live cd btw :)
[09:40] <T_CAN> anyway I can automount a device so that it mounts automically on bootup?
[09:40] <red-sox> I have no GUI on my dapper live CD
[09:40] <disinterested_pe> my goal is to get my volume to work from my keyboard
[09:40] <PlumTree> wonderfull :P
[09:40] <PlumTree> NoUse, big kisses for you :P
[09:40] <delta> skippy81: which wm are you running?
[09:40] <PlumTree> my biggest problem doesn't exist now.
[09:40] <eyequeue> PlumTree, look at System > Preferences > Font or System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[09:41] <skippy81> delta - gnome with xgl/compiz
[09:41] <NoUse> PlumTree :-)
[09:41] <hithere> hi m8s
[09:41] <xanavim> my network card doesn't get an IP address.  the device manager says the card is a "texas instruments 1450".  Is there a way to get an IP address?  it worked with warty ubuntu
[09:41] <extern> does all the files get executed in the init.d folder?
[09:41] <delta> skippy81: oh, you're a warrior :)
[09:41] <hithere> how can I mount my c: windows hard disk?
[09:41] <NoUse> !tell hithere about ntfs
[09:41] <PlumTree> but I am sure I will come here often :P
[09:41] <skippy81> delta, hehe, yeah a warrior with too much time on my hands
[09:41] <|Tom|> xanavim: are you using dhcp to get an ip address? or do you work with static ip addresses
[09:41] <skippy81> its all been pretty smooth though
[09:41] <PlumTree> I am a total noob with linux
[09:41] <xanavim> |Tom|: I'm using DHCP
[09:41] <crane> hello and howdy
[09:42] <eyequeue> extern, man update-rc.d for the boot philosophy, and an explanation of how it's ordered .... most do, not all will
[09:42] <hithere> ty
[09:42] <crane> Wish I was playing Quake4
[09:42] <delta> eyequeue: really?
[09:42] <|Tom|> xanavim: if you launch "ifconfig" in your console - does it recognise the card?
[09:42] <T_CAN> anyway I can automount a device so that it mounts automically on bootup?
[09:42] <skippy81> i have futher complcaed my life with running 64bit dapper so i have had to compile wine etc from scratch
[09:42] <georgeguitar>  Hello I'm trying to install this driver: spca5xx-20060501 on Ubuntu BREEZY, but when I write "make" I have this message:
[09:42] <|Tom|> xanavim: (and is the interface up?)
[09:42] <georgeguitar>  /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/build: don't exist
[09:42] <klebao> T_CAN > which device ?
[09:42] <xanavim> |Tom|: ifconfig says the interface is UP, yes, everything looks ok except for lack of assigned IP address
[09:42] <eyequeue> delta, /etc/rc.2/S23foo is usually a symlink to /etc/init.d/foo, for example
[09:42] <skippy81> georgeguitar, dont compile it
[09:42] <T_CAN> hard drive
[09:43] <phosphor> xanavim: is configure by DHCP on?
[09:43] <red-sox> I have no gui on the dapper live disk, I've an ATI video card.
[09:43] <|Tom|> xanavim: try sudo dhclient3
[09:43] <T_CAN> i have to mount it everytime i reboot
[09:43] <delta> skippy81: it doesn't make anymore doubt. I confirm you have too much time :)
[09:43] <georgeguitar> skippy81 yes
[09:43] <T_CAN> i would like to have it automount
[09:43] <xanavim> phosphor: yes
[09:43] <|Tom|> xanavim: it shoould try and get an ip address via dhcp then ...
[09:43] <Firerabbit> how do I get the "Sleep" button back in the GNOME Quit dialog?
[09:43] <skippy81> georgeguitar,  you allready should have the driver on your disk, its a standard part of the kernel just "sudo modprobe spca5xx"
[09:43] <extern> eyequeue, so can I make a seperate file or should I append to some other?
[09:43] <biocoded> T_CAN > edit /etc/fstab
[09:43] <delta> eyequeue: no, I meant: "delta, with breakage in ... 1? ;)" :)
[09:43] <eyequeue> delta, S*foo are executed sequentially, in runlevel2 in the above example
[09:43] <PlumTree> oops. I do not know how to close queries in ubuntu xchat :P
[09:44] <biocoded> T_CAN > You know /etc/fstab ?
[09:44] <georgeguitar> skippy81, I'll try, I don't know that was part of it
[09:44] <NoUse> PlumTree what do you mean by queries?
[09:44] <eyequeue> extern, i wojuld make a separate, then run the update-rc.d command to give it it's very own place in the boot sequence ("S20" is average)
[09:44] <T_CAN> yeah
[09:44] <eyequeue> delta, geez i hope not, lol
[09:44] <skippy81> yeah its always worth doing a filesearch of your disk before attempting to compile a driver, linux comes with a vast selection of them precompiled georgeguitar
[09:45] <phosphor> xanavim: did dhclient3 work?
[09:45] <xanavim> |Tom|: no, I get "No DHCPOFFERS received."
[09:45] <|Tom|> hmm
[09:45] <T_CAN> thanks bio
[09:45] <skippy81> what verison of ubuntu are you running georgeguitar ? im on dapper and have that module sitting on my disk
[09:45] <red-sox> How do I install the ATI drivers with no gui on the live cd?
[09:45] <eyequeue> extern, one otehrfactor, package upgrades could overwrite any changes you make, whereas separate is always safe
[09:45] <mnvl> skippy81, doesn't that seem to be a CVS version of a driver?
[09:45] <red-sox> Or even just install ubuntu dapper with no gui
[09:45] <hithere> lol nouse was easier that i founded on google
[09:45] <phosphor> who is your dhcp server?
[09:45] <hithere> thks a lot man :d
[09:45] <phosphor> do you have a router?
[09:45] <georgeguitar> spippy81 I have 5.04
[09:46] <xanavim> phosphor: I think it's an NT box somewhere in my company
[09:46] <extern> eyequeue, is those files executed as root user?
[09:46] <NoUse> hithere sorry what?
[09:46] <skippy81> mnvl, his one? im not sure, but he may as well try the included one frist
[09:46] <habenix> is it still a problem for grub to have an lvm boot or root partition?
[09:46] <mnvl> or a nightly version rather skippy81 (with a date)
[09:46] <hithere> nouse just that your help was really succesfully for me :)
[09:46] <eyequeue> extern, typically, though i believe there may be a "runas" option
[09:46] <NoUse> hithere oh ok :-)
[09:46] <phosphor> xanavim: is the ubuntu box a personal machine, the router might only assign ip addresses to certain MAC addresses
[09:46] <georgeguitar> skippy81 it works, and now how can I know if the driver runs?
[09:46] <pianoboy3333> Is there a way to uninstall something with a setup.py script that comes with a program? install, installs it, then ______ removes it?
[09:46] <extern> so I need to just type the commands to be executed?
[09:47] <hithere> bye m8s :) I hope one day i'll know a lot and can help the noobs like me :P
[09:47] <xanavim> phosphor: it worked fine with warty when I installed warty three days ago
[09:47] <skippy81> georgeguitar,  what is the piece of hardware ?
[09:47] <xanavim> phosphor: on the same machine
[09:47] <|Sivik|> how do i install the java plugin for mozilla?
[09:47] <eyequeue> extern, that man page (man update-rc.d) should point to all the info, but read over /etc/init.d/EXAMPLE or similarly named file, if present
[09:47] <skippy81> you can see if driver is loaded with "lsmod | grep spcaxx"
[09:47] <daniele> `
[09:48] <georgeguitar> skippy81 it's a EZonics webcam, the chip model is UVT8532
[09:49] <hugo__> ??
[09:49] <red-sox> How do I install ubuntu from the dapper live CD with no gui?
[09:49] <|Sivik|> red-sox, i don't think you can
[09:49] <daniele> hello. i have upgraded my ibook to dapper. now pbbuttonsd is replaced by gnome-power-manager. how i'm supposed to set up my mouse and keybord now?
[09:49] <red-sox> UGAHL
[09:49] <T_CAN> how do i edit /etc/fstab?
[09:49] <T_CAN> i cant save it from text editor
[09:49] <xanavim> red-sox: you could try starting up in text-only mode
[09:49] <red-sox> HmM...this really bites
[09:49] <red-sox> xanavim: K
[09:49] <dusty_> Hey guys whats the package name for gtk2.6 I need it installed for development purposes?
[09:49] <red-sox> good idea
[09:49] <|Sivik|> xanavim, but you can't install from a live cd
[09:49] <skippy81> ok georgeguitar, "lsmod | grep spca" will tell you if the driver is running
[09:50] <White_Lightning> T_CAN: you need to give yourself rights to it from a sudo username
[09:50] <biocoded> T_CAN > you must be root
[09:50] <phosphor> xanavim: drop a thread in the forum, im not big into networking but you might get a better response there once people have a chance to look over it
[09:50] <red-sox> |Sivik|: from the dapper live CD you can
[09:50] <habenix> any XEN gurus here?
[09:50] <NoUse> red-sox what kind of video card do you have?
[09:50] <skippy81> and then, georgeguitar, try downloading gnomemeeting or something like that and test your camera out
[09:50] <xanavim> |Sivik|: you can't start the new livecd, which is an installer, in text-only mode and install?
[09:50] <xanavim> phosphor: ok
[09:50] <skippy81> im afraid i dont have much specific knowledge on webcams, but i assume once the driver is loaded you should be on your way there
[09:50] <zcat[1] > mystery; I have just installed ubuntu on this box, sound works fine but I can't adjust the volume at all. Also I have two mixer controls SiS7012 and CMI9761 .. neither have any effect on what rhythmbox is playing...
[09:51] <|Sivik|> red-sox, then thats something new
[09:51] <georgeguitar> skippy81 thanks a lot I'm going to try with gnomemeeting
[09:51] <T_CAN> so just sudo -u username|#uid   ?
[09:51] <skippy81> ok georgeguitar good luck
[09:51] <skippy81> i hope it works out for you
[09:51] <NoUse> |Sivik| as of dapper, the live cd is the 'preferred' installation method
[09:51] <eyequeue> T_CAN, sudo gedit /etc/fstab, works
[09:52] <skippy81> im am logging for a few hours, cya all around :D
[09:52] <|Sivik|> NoUse: like i said, that must be new
[09:52] <phosphor> xanavim: can you assign an ip manually?
[09:52] <T_CAN> gotcha
[09:52] <|Sivik|> how do i install java support for firefox?
[09:52] <georgeguitar> I hope so :)
[09:52] <eyequeue> T_CAN, sudo -s, gets you root until you exit, if you need that
[09:52] <zcat[1] > liveCD is actually rather nice to isntall from too... very impressed..
[09:52] <T_CAN> thanks
[09:52] <PlumTree> well, I have another problem. If I do not disturb, could I ask you?
[09:52] <xanavim> phosphor: I guess I will try  (:
[09:52] <zcat[1] > a few questions at the start and the rest of the install is fully automated!
[09:52] <eyequeue> T_CAN, do exit as soon as you don't need root of course
[09:52] <ben_60657> can anyone recommend a good multiprotocol IM client...i know about GAIM...are there better ones?
[09:52] <|Sivik|> where can i download the dapper stuff?
[09:53] <xanavim> ben_60657: there's also kopete
[09:53] <ben_60657> xanavim: that's KDE based, correct?
[09:53] <CokeNCode> ben_60657 depends on what you mean by good
[09:53] <eyequeue> ubotu, tell |Sivik| about dapper
[09:53] <benplaut> ben_60657: kopete is very nice
[09:53] <CokeNCode> ben_60657 what features are you looking for
[09:53] <PlumTree> Is there a person who is patient and could explain some basic things with ubuntu for me?
[09:53] <tom-away> ben_60657: if you use KDE, definately try Kopete ...
[09:53] <benplaut> if you don't mind using qt
[09:53] <eyequeue> ubotu, tell |Sivik| about breezy->dapper
[09:53] <White_Lightning> T_CAN: sudo +766 filename
[09:53] <xanavim> ben_60657: it runs in gnome if that's what you mean
[09:53] <ben_60657> CokeNCode: yahoo, aim, irc mostly...i guess Gtalk too
[09:54] <CokeNCode> oh, if you want something that does them all, then trillian or gaim is your best bet
[09:54] <tom-away> i think kopete supports all protocols gaim supports
[09:54] <NoUse> |Sivik| http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/releases/6.06/
[09:54] <zcat[1] > anything in linux that does yahoo cams ?
[09:54] <ben_60657> CokeNCode: one client to rule them all, eh?
[09:54] <CokeNCode> ben_60657 a jack of all trades and a master of none
[09:54] <CokeNCode> amsn is good for msn tho ...
[09:55] <|Sivik|> NoUse: found it
[09:55] <tom-away> amsn is a but slow though ... and it looks too much like the real msn messenger ;)
[09:55] <phosphor> amsn is the only one with web cam for msn isnt it?
[09:55] <RadiantFire> Anusien: how would I go about adding new shortcuts
[09:55] <ben_60657> CokeNCode: i don't have any friends who use MSN
[09:55] <CokeNCode> when you try to get one piece of software that does everything, it usually ends up lacking in a few areas
[09:55] <T_CAN> anyone have a list of handy terminal codes? :)
[09:55] <RadiantFire> Ii still have about 4 buttons left over that won't nicely fit into the shortcuts listed
[09:55] <biocoded> phosphor> mercury have cam in msn
[09:55] <tom-away> didn't gaim have this "experimental" plugin/extension for webcam support too?
[09:55] <FariSS> hi guys
[09:55] <ben_60657> so what's the basic difference between trillian and gaim
[09:56] <NoUse> !tell T_CAN about cli
[09:56] <crane> good greief I step away for 5 minutes and the messages are scrolling by
[09:56] <icecrash> hi

[09:56] <FariSS> please how can i burn DVD ?? i have a DVD with some data and i want to make some copies of it ):
[09:56] <xanavim> I prefer irssi for irc
[09:56] <phosphor> tom-away: it didnt really work did it?
[09:56] <icecrash> I have a question to cups in daper
[09:56] <zcat[1] > xchat is nice..

[09:56] <factotum> hey all, looking for an app to label my mp3 in a more proper fashion with artist and song title in file name, any suggestions? Cant remember what its called, tag editor or something similar?
[09:56] <tom-away> phosphor: not for me. but it was "experimental" so ;)
[09:56] <FariSS> please how can i burn DVD ?? i have a DVD with some data and i want to make some copies of it ):
[09:56] <FariSS> help
[09:56] <FariSS> me
[09:56] <tom-away> FariSS: K3B?
[09:56] <icecrash> anyone who can tell me how to enable printer browsing???
[09:57] <RadiantFire> FariSS: if you have gnome, you can right click on the icon and hit copy CD/DVD
[09:57] <FariSS> tom-away what ? k3b ??
[09:57] <RadiantFire> er 2.14
[09:57] <tom-away> k3b is the CD / DVD burning program i use.
[09:57] <icecrash> I'm feeling stupid not to get it working, in previous releases it was so easy
[09:57] <tom-away> apt-get install k3b ;)
[09:57] <RadiantFire> FariSS: there is also GnomeBaker
[09:57] <ben_60657> speaking of burning DVDs...does linux have anything comparable to DVD Santa?  something that would take an .avi or .mpg and convert to DVD format?
[09:57] <FariSS> tom-away where to get it ?
[09:58] <tom-away> apt-get is your friend ;)
[09:58] <FariSS> tom-away i know , but where ?
[09:58] <xanavim> FariSS: command-line
[09:58] <PlumTree> NoUse, can I have a query with you ;-)?
[09:58] <tom-away> open a terminal in ubuntu
[09:58] <FariSS> i know
[09:58] <xanavim> FariSS: or you could use synaptic
[09:58] <CokeNCode> console is also your friend
[09:58] <FariSS> but complete command
[09:58] <tom-away> type: sudo apt-get install k3b
[09:58] <tom-away> :s
[09:58] <FariSS> apt-get wht after
[09:58] <FariSS> :s
[09:58] <disinterested_pe> i wish i could get volume control from my keyboard
[09:58] <eyequeue> FariSS, sudo apt-get install k3b
[09:58] <NoUse> PlumTree sure
[09:59] <FariSS> ok ill try and tell y guys
[09:59] <FariSS> thanks
[09:59] <g-nome> can i use aptitude-get the same as apt-get (same repos)?
[09:59] <tom-away> aptitude and apt-get use the same repositories yeh
[09:59] <eyequeue> g-nome, minus the get, but yes
[10:00] <g-nome> so only aptidu install APPNAME
[10:00] <g-nome> aptitude
[10:00] <eyequeue> right
[10:00] <wubrgamer> hey guys, how do i change my icons for nautilus ? i hate this bright goldish orange and i want to switch over to something like the standard icons with clearlooks
[10:01] <gnomefreak> wubrgamer: system>prefferences>themes
[10:01] <wubrgamer> i did
[10:01] <wubrgamer> it doesn't change my icons
[10:01] <wubrgamer> i'm using clearlooks ....
[10:01] <wubrgamer> oh
[10:02] <wubrgamer> never mind guys
[10:02] <g-nome> the icons of dapper are so nice :-)
[10:02] <gnomefreak> wubrgamer: under themes click theme details there is a icon section
[10:02] <wubrgamer> no they aren't
[10:02] <wubrgamer> theyu are ugly as anything
[10:02] <wubrgamer> i mean
[10:02] <wubrgamer> shiny
[10:02] <g-nome> yes they are
[10:02] <tom-away> get KDE then ;)
[10:02] <xanavim> I wouldn't know, I can't see any icons  :D
[10:02] <wubrgamer> but very though
[10:02] <wubrgamer> anyway
[10:02] <wubrgamer> i upgraded
[10:02] <tom-away> i like the kde theme more than the gnome one for ubuntu :s
[10:02] <eyequeue> "art" always has differing opinions :)
[10:02] <stef> hoi
[10:02] <wubrgamer> and it messed tieh my themese
[10:02] <wubrgamer> it made a custom theme for me
[10:02] <wubrgamer> no
[10:02] <wubrgamer> this isn't art
[10:02] <tom-away> hoi stef
[10:02] <gnomefreak> i like xfce themes the most ;)
[10:02] <wubrgamer> it's system design
[10:02] <g-nome> xfce rules
[10:02] <stef> is there a sort of MSN MEssenger on Ubuntu?
[10:03] <tom-away> gaim
[10:03] <wubrgamer> and there ARE things that should be followed
[10:03] <wubrgamer> amsn
[10:03] <eyequeue> wubrgamer, actually, i believe the package is named ubuntu-artwork :)
[10:03] <tom-away> or you could install amsn or kopete
[10:03] <Blippe> stef, gaim among others
[10:03] <xanavim> wubrgamer: the fact that you disagree proves that it's art  (:
[10:03] <tom-away> but gaim works nicely for msn
[10:03] <stef> war can i download it?
[10:03] <tom-away> it should be installed already
[10:03] <g-nome> normall i hate dark themes, but the only one i've ever had, and for a long time, was an xfce one
[10:03] <kspath> stef: apt-cache search msn ; apt-cache search chat;apt-cache search irc
[10:03] <kspath> stef: man apt-get
[10:03] <g-nome> plus xfce will be GREAT in version 4.4 with new file manager and finally DESKTOP ICONS (standard)
[10:04] <eyequeue> stef, gaim seems to be popular, but the searches will show you many alternatives
[10:04] <wubrgamer> alright
[10:04] <phosphor> id still recommend gaim
[10:04] <wubrgamer> but still
[10:04] <wubrgamer> it's artistic
[10:04] <tom-away> stef: if you did a default install of Ubuntu GAIM should be installed already.
[10:04] <phosphor> the new beta is very nice :D
[10:04] <wubrgamer> and involves art
[10:04] <thiebo> When is xfce 4.4 ready ?
[10:04] <Hso> question, when mounting windows partitions, i read somewhere it about not being "safe" to write to it.. does that mean it could damage the partition, or it's vunerable to hackers?
[10:04] <petrik> Anyone know a good reference for setting up a LAN between two PC's through a ADSL router?
[10:04] <stef> thanx
[10:04] <wubrgamer> but it's still along the lines of a science
[10:04] <Hso> uh.. vulnerable **
[10:04] <stef> thanx tom-away
[10:04] <stef> trying
[10:05] <eyequeue> Hso, i believe it means that ntfs is proprietary, hence there's no specs released on how to write without trashing it
[10:05] <Hso> can anyone tell me how to block someone from viewing a website in firefox?
[10:05] <wubrgamer> it's not a painting it's my desktop, a painting can be brash and be praised thusly, BUT i stare at my desktop for hours at a time..........it sux
[10:05] <NoUse> PlumTree you there?
[10:05] <wubrgamer> Hso: why ?
[10:05] <eXistenZ> When the final will be released?
[10:05] <Hso> eyequeue, - so... it's in my best interest not to write to it?
[10:05] <kbrosnan> Hso, hosts file
[10:05] <NoUse> eXistenZ June 1
[10:05] <eyequeue> Hso, right
[10:05] <PlumTree> NoUse, yes, I wrote some words at query
[10:05] <eXistenZ> great
[10:05] <PlumTree> sorry telephone.
[10:05] <Hso> wubrgamer,  - 'cos my sister is spending wayyyyy too much time on my pc uploading ugly pictures of her onto her crappy website :P
[10:06] <NoUse> PlumTree I'm not getting them, you might have to register
[10:06] <wubrgamer> no
[10:06] <wubrgamer> haha
[10:06] <Hso> kbrosnan?
[10:06] <wubrgamer> well
[10:06] <holo> hi
[10:06] <NoUse> !tell PlumTree about register
[10:06] <wubrgamer> i suggest setting up a password if it's your computer
[10:06] <wubrgamer> lol
[10:06] <Hso> can't ;(
[10:06] <holo> is there some bug that the /dev/dsp simply disapears?
[10:06] <Hso> it's a livecd, I might add :P
[10:06] <kbrosnan> Hso, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts
[10:07] <holo> the kernel image is 2.6.10 from package
[10:07] <Hso> k
[10:07] <walkover> hey im from denmark. I have a danish keyboard and the danish special characters does not work. I need them to work. Does anyone know how to make them work?
[10:08] <Hso> special danish characters = accents? o.O
[10:08] <PlumTree> ok, one moment
[10:08] <eyequeue> wasn't keymapping one of the first questions on the live/install cd?
[10:09] <walkover> maybe but somehow its all english now
[10:09] <grndslm> disinterested_pe, you still there?
[10:09] <astrisk> can any one tell me how to install a .deb package downloaded on my desktop
[10:10] <NoUse> !deb
[10:10] <ubotu> To install a .deb file: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb  (but note that the program you want might be installable using !apt from the !repos)
[10:10] <Hso> x_X;
[10:10] <Hso> fine.. :P
[10:10] <walkover> dpkg -i <package>
[10:10] <g-nome> a small question: how to have the things i copy (ctrl+c) to STAY in the clipboard when closing the app where it's copied from?
[10:11] <g-nome> in gnome (i know of klipper in KDE)
[10:11] <Hso> no idea.. I normally open the text editor and paste it into there before closing firefox
[10:11] <astrisk> ubotu, its not there in repos...
[10:11] <ubotu> astrisk: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:11] <Hso> astrisk, o.o
[10:12] <xanavim> ubotu: repos
[10:12] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[10:12] <Hso> astrisk, open the terminal and go to your desktop, and type "sudo dpkg -i <filename.deb>"
[10:12] <chasmarang> Hi people
[10:12] <Hso> yo
[10:12] <eyequeue> !easysource
[10:12] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[10:12] <extern> how do I add a script to startup?
[10:12] <Hso> no idea, extern :(
[10:12] <Jowi> walkover: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, you should only need to put Option "XkbLayout" "dk" if your "XkbModel" is correct
[10:12] <extern> so it executes a couple of bash commands
[10:13] <eyequeue> man update-rc.d
[10:13] <grndslm> g-nome, did you know that you can copy and paste without using the keyboard?
[10:13] <PlumTree> is there any command to register the nick?
[10:13] <astrisk> Hso, thnx very much ubotu had told earlier b4 u... :)
[10:13] <g-nome> with mousewheel?
[10:13] <eyequeue> !tell PlumTree about register
[10:13] <grndslm> yup, just highlight and then click mousewheel
[10:13] <xanavim> PlumTree: /msg nickserv identify <password>
[10:13] <extern> eyequeue, I studied some .sh files in the init.d folder
[10:13] <PlumTree> i have tried this - /msg nickserv register <password> <email>
[10:13] <grndslm> i rarely use ctrl-c anymore
[10:13] <PlumTree> xanavim, thanks
[10:13] <extern> and they are written in some special language
[10:14] <extern> can my scripts be just pure commands?
[10:14] <g-nome> still it's not more in the clipboard when closing the app where it's copied from....
[10:14] <Hso> astrick - I coulda type it first, but I was lagged :P
[10:14] <Hso> typed**
[10:14] <hithere> hi m8s
[10:14] <eyequeue> man update-rc.d  tells how to get them to execute, and yes, you can write simple scripts there too
[10:14] <Jowi> hithere hithere
[10:14] <extern> k
[10:14] <hithere> for running a windows games (wwp) i need to install it on linux with wine?
[10:14] <disinterested_pe> does anyone know how to get volume working from keyboard?
[10:15] <xanavim> hithere: yes
[10:15] <Hso> hithere, sounds about right
[10:15] <chasmarang> Is Ethereal seeing what's going to my ethernet card or what's going into my computer?
[10:15] <eyequeue> disinterested_pe, this may or may not be your fix, but it worked for me
[10:15] <eXistenZ> where can I ask questions about the ubuntu translations in launchpad
[10:15] <hithere> oh! ok... and if the folder has spaces
[10:15] <hithere> how I do it ?
[10:15] <Hso> no idea, eXistenZ
[10:15] <Spec> chasmarang: ethereal sees all network traffic to and from your nic
[10:15] <Some_Person> Hey
[10:15] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:15] <eyequeue> disinterested_pe, from console, sudo alsamixer, then set things OFF that you don't have, etc
[10:15] <hithere> with just spaces doesn0't work, I had to go to win and leave the spaces
[10:15] <Jowi> disinterested_pe: you can change the sound volume with "alsamixer" if that was what you meant
[10:15] <astrisk> Hso, ya i have to go to desktop or issue the command by simply opening the terminal an at the prompt..
[10:15] <Some_Person> I can't get USPLASH to work with LILO
[10:15] <hithere> program files
[10:15] <Spec> chasmarang: It sets your nic to passive mode i think, and just reads all traffic
[10:15] <PlumTree> ok, my nick is registered now :P
[10:16] <Hso> hithere - have you tried trapping the full dir in " ?
[10:16] <disinterested_pe> ok i'll try it
[10:16] <dblpd> i'm new to linux, can some one help me with a few questions?
[10:16] <hithere> nop xD thks
[10:16] <g-nome> can anyone test if also in ubuntu (gnome, in kde it works) the copy-to-clipboard-even-after-closing-source-app is working?
[10:16] <Hso> dblpd, i'll try :P
[10:16] <g-nome> dapper
[10:16] <Hso> g-nome, how?
[10:16] <hithere> and the last question
[10:16] <chasmarang> Spec: Thank you - are these ip's from italy,china,sweden etc. dangerous to me because I dont have a firewall
[10:16] <hithere> opening a ISO (for installing the game)
[10:16] <eyequeue> eXistenZ, i might try #ubuntu-locoteams
[10:16] <hithere> which program can I use?
[10:16] <Some_Person> Ubuntu is my first Linux ever, and I'm on my first ever install, and I already have a Ubuntu/Windows dualboot!
[10:17] <petiteconne> yeah is working g-nome
[10:17] <instabin1> 6.06 IS BEAUTIFULL
[10:17] <g-nome> Hso: for ex. copy a text from a document/firefox, then close it (completely) and try to paste it anywhere, does it work?
[10:17] <Some_Person> Now, how do I get USPLASH to work with LILO?
[10:17] <petiteconne> g-nome: it works ... since i have upgraded to dapper
[10:17] <Hso> hithere - well, in WindowsXP, I use both DaemonTools and Alcohol120%.. never used Wine, though :P
[10:17] <g-nome> petiteconne: that's FINE, finally
[10:17] <Spec> chasmarang: Depends if you're dealing with servers in italy, china, sweden or not ;)
[10:18] <Hso> g-nome - it normally does with me.. lemme try
[10:18] <Spec> chasmarang: If your system is secured you don't -really- need a firewall
[10:18] <hithere> ya, but not that, how I open a .iso file on linux
[10:18] <g-nome> 'cause in breezy it doesn't
[10:18] <Hso> nope.. the clipboard is blank :(
[10:18] <g-nome> hmm
[10:18] <dblpd> I am having trouble getting a touchscreen to work in ubuntu
[10:18] <instabin1> Hso: you can mount cd images in linux so  you dont need deamon tools
[10:18] <g-nome> petiteconne: are you using KDE?
[10:18] <Hso> I've never used a touchscreen before :(
[10:18] <disinterested_pe> yes grndslm
[10:18] <Hso> instabin1, that's interesting :P
[10:18] <dblpd> hmm...
[10:19] <chasmarang> Spec: Thanks -  I'm runnung Breezy Badger and I don't have anything running except ethereal
[10:19] <dblpd> most of the stuff i'm reading explains hjow to get it to work, ut the monitor wont even boot into gnome
[10:19] <petiteconne> g-nome: ja that was really something what was quite nerve-racking with the clipboard
[10:19] <dblpd> it works fine at the command
[10:19] <hithere> and how I mount a .iso??
[10:19] <dblpd> but it dies when it tries to load
[10:19] <Jowi> hithere: you can mount it normally, for example (adjust to fit your needs) "sudo mount file.iso /media/iso/ -t iso9660 -o loop"
[10:19] <Hso> can't help ya, dblpd  :(
[10:19] <sedrake> Does anyone know about a program, that can edit files on a ftp server, or upload files at the same time as you are saving them?
[10:19] <chasmarang> why would they query me
[10:19] <hithere> oh
[10:19] <hithere> ok :)
[10:19] <disinterested_pe> ive got no idea of how to turn stuff off from sudo alasmixer its open though
[10:20] <g-nome> petiteconne: but do you have kde or not? because HSO says it does NOT work
[10:20] <disinterested_pe> alsa
[10:20] <Hso> jowi - Hmm... is there a way to add "sudo mount *** /media/iso/ -t iso9660 -o loop" to the right click menu, so it does it automatically without needing the terminal?
[10:20] <eyequeue> disinterested_pe, "M" ?
[10:20] <Jowi> disinterested_pe: press "M" to mute/unmute
[10:20] <dblpd> anyone else familliar with getting a monitor to work in gnome?
[10:20] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:20] <Hso> i'm using Gnome :D
[10:20] <Hso> KDE is too filled with junk for my liking :(
[10:20] <aLPHa_LeaK> exactly
[10:20] <eyequeue> disinterested_pe, mute what is unneeded, uparrow those that need more volume
[10:21] <petiteconne> g-nome: as i understood you, you wanted to know whether int works under gnome? and there it works maybe i misunderstood you
[10:21] <g-nome> ok then, very stranfe tough
[10:21] <g-nome> Hso, do you have dapper installed?
[10:21] <Hso> no, breezy
[10:21] <petiteconne> ja thats the problem :D
[10:21] <g-nome> aaah ok then
[10:21] <Hso> i'm thinking about grabbing the latest version of dapper, though..
[10:21] <Jowi> Hso: probably. a quick google search found this (no idea if it works or not) http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/24/nautilus-script-to-mount-iso-files/
[10:21] <Hso> cheers, jowi :P
[10:22] <g-nome> because in dapper the copy-paste thing is FINALLY FIXED, HSO
[10:22] <dblpd> my other question relates to banshee... is anyone using DAAP in banshee?
[10:22] <kovzany> join #ubuntu+1
[10:22] <Hso> g-nome 0.0 hurrah! :P
[10:22] <Hso> 6months of coding well spent, right :D
[10:22] <petiteconne> i upgraded to dapper 2 weeks ago and there is nothing that i miss in comparisson to breezy
[10:22] <g-nome> right
[10:22] <Hso> kovzany, - try "/j #ubuntu+1#
[10:22] <Hso> uh..
[10:23] <Hso> kovzany, - try "/j #ubuntu+1" **
[10:23] <Hso> so.. at the moment, is dapper better?
[10:23] <disinterested_pe> hummmm when i mute pcm all sound goes off im sure thats normal but the master volume still doesnt work
[10:23] <kspath> Hso: Better than what?
[10:23] <Hso> I don't actually have breezy installed.. i'm using the livecd.. what's the dapper livecd like?
[10:23] <petiteconne> in my opinion it is
[10:23] <Hso> compared to breezy? :P
[10:23] <g-nome> hope so
[10:23] <kspath> Hso: Try it.
[10:23] <Lozzy`> Dunno if any of you guys are involved in the production of Ubuntu, but if so I have to congratulate you on such a fantastic product. Just tried a Live CD and am instantly a convert.
[10:24] <petiteconne> never tried the dapper live cd
[10:24] <disinterested_pe> the volume bar goes up and down but not the sound level
[10:24] <g-nome> Hso: it boots 1000 times faster
[10:24] <Hso> kspath, I will, but I will need to reset and log into windows XP so I can download the dapper iso x_X;
[10:24] <Hso> 1000 times? wow! :P
[10:24] <g-nome> not exactly
[10:24] <g-nome> but 999
[10:24] <Hso> speaking of which, i was reading a website about a command called "runit" being alot faster than "init".. is there any truth to that?
[10:25] <disinterested_pe> any other options?
[10:25] <oden__> hallo all
[10:25] <chaos_of_apocaly> can anyone tell me what prog can i use for ssh2 ?
[10:25] <g-nome> any FreeBSD users here?
[10:25] <petiteconne> g-nome: i cant agree with you :) my boot time is similar to that of breezy ... but that could be the cause of that i simply upgraded with no new installation
[10:25] <Jowi> disinterested_pe: adjust Master _and_ PCM
[10:26] <Hso> g-nome - try in #freebsd :P
[10:26] <Spec> chaos_of_apocaly: openssh-client
[10:26] <jdmpike> how do you get full duplex sound in ubuntu?
[10:26] <disinterested_pe> i did that
[10:26] <dblpd> can anyone recomend a program to recieve DAAP from another machine?
[10:26] <maccam94> hey, i'm in knoppix right now and i'm trying to copy the settings for the ethernet card from the cd to the ubuntu install on the hard drive, anyone got any ideas?
[10:26] <chaos_of_apocaly> yes spec
[10:26] <jdmpike> dblpd: try banshee
[10:26] <disinterested_pe> but i still dont get volume on my keyboard
[10:26] <g-nome> petiteconne: i mean the boot -time of THE LIVE-CD (not the dapper boot time, tough it sohuld ALSO be faster)
[10:26] <oden__> so where are you all from?
[10:26] <dblpd> jdmpike: I am, but it's not seeing my iTunes share
[10:27] <petiteconne> ah ok
[10:27] <g-nome> i just want to know if freebsd is really THAT fast & stable compared to linux/ubuntu
[10:27] <Hso> okay.. I have a question... is it actually possible to run ubuntu(installation or livecd)  via a usb stick?
[10:27] <Jowi> disinterested_pe: volume "on the keyboard"? explain. you have speakers in your keyboard?
[10:27] <dblpd> jdmpike: maybe I'm not configuring it right?
[10:27] <hithere> let's see
[10:27] <hithere> is like this?
[10:27] <hithere> sudo mount /home/feryana/Desktop/worms.iso -t iso9660 -o loop
[10:27] <Spec> Hso: probably
[10:27] <Spec> Hso: I run ubuntu off a usb harddrive
[10:27] <hithere> after appearsa lot of text but I dont find the image loaded
[10:27] <oden__> that only works with isos
[10:27] <igorzolnikov> how can i install opera 9 beta 2 for ubuntu 6.06?
