[09:36] <erUSUL> tvade: yes 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'
[09:36] <libnet-problem> i am tryin to compile something from a source
[09:36] <tvade> erUSUL: so changing keyboard could cause such strange behaviour?
[09:36] <scguy318> thatguy: use aMSN
[09:37] <libnet-problem> configure: error: Bad libnet version found in /libnet.h:
[09:37] <thatguy> i prefer gaim
[09:37] <dgjones> chuxxsss, as long as you've not used automatix or envy, its should upgrade ok
[09:37] <luddite> Agent_bob : ok - ill back it up first
[09:37] <erUSUL> tvade: no, it shouldn't just trying to get all the information
[09:37] <Agent_bob> luddite and while you do,  i'll go hide just in case it blows chunks...   ;/
[09:37] <thatguy> sersly .. i dont like haveing all that open i love how gaim and pidgin are so compact..  and powerfull .. just like msn messanger its so big and cluncky
[09:37]  * luddite starts backing up
[09:37] <luddite> :-)
[09:37] <rubydiamond> do any body have idea how to remap capslock to escape in ubuntu......
[09:37] <chuxxsss> ok I use the first one
[09:37]  * luddite can see around corners Agent_bob
[09:37] <esr> General question: is there any reason to believe recent Gutsy upgrades might cause X crashes?  My downstairs machines are behaving very oddly --they boot fine, getting to gdm or kdm, then X crahes or hangs on login to any user account (even a teat one I just created).
[09:38] <thatguy> ... and kde preplacment kopeta.. dont work right ether.. idk..
[09:38] <luddite> esr: yes
[09:38] <Agent_bob> rubydiamond console or gui ?
[09:38] <tvade> erUSUL: one more thing it seems that when i run any command it asks for password and login but it does not authenticate me anymore
[09:38] <rubydiamond> gui
[09:38] <libnet-problem> hey anyone who can help me
[09:38] <rubydiamond> Agent_bob, gui
[09:38] <phoenix_> use   /nick <raven-->
[09:38] <esr> luddite: Tell me about it, please.
[09:38] <Optimus110103> ]is it good when the screen says ubuntu in big pretty letters and gives me a start install option?
[09:38] <erUSUL> rubydiamond: to esc? i have it swapped with leftcrtl with a line in my xorg.conf...
[09:38] <Optimus110103> hehe
[09:38] <thatguy> YES..
[09:38] <libnet-problem> i am tryin to install from source i get problem
[09:38] <libnet-problem> configure: error: Bad libnet version found in /libnet.h:
[09:38] <Agent_bob> rubydiamond sorry i'm a cli guy   but someone in here can tell you.
[09:38] <thatguy> oks.. now just boot and play with the live enviorment..
[09:38] <thatguy> if you liek it.. click install and read along
[09:39] <MatthewV> libnet-problem, what are you trying to install from source?
[09:39] <abcent> Optimus110103: We have a touch downnnnn
[09:39] <Optimus110103> good deal
[09:39] <Optimus110103> we do
[09:39] <Optimus110103> thanks so much guys
[09:39] <erUSUL> rubydiamond:  Option         "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"  check the man page maybe there is something similar for Escp
[09:39] <phoenix_> 'lo
[09:39] <Agent_bob> thatguy you should point out that liveCD's are inhearantly slow/sluggish
[09:39] <thatguy> devenatly .. it just takes one or two open minds to push opensource... and to shake a world
[09:39] <Optimus110103> lets just hope it works on my machine
[09:39] <luddite> esr : do this. sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx    then reboot  then do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx then reboot and x will be back to normal. do that at the x-server failed term prompt when it fails
[09:39] <tvade> Agent_bob: the recovery window, after it failed i write at the end
[09:39] <abcent> Optimus110103: it was all Thatguy's credit ... good work :)
[09:39] <Lumpy^> how i restart firefox using shell?
[09:39] <tg3plus> rubydiamond: xmodmap -e 'remove lock = Caps_Lock' ; xmodmap -e 'keycode 66 = Escape'      (untested)
[09:40] <jscinoz> Whenever any program at all tries to output sound over alsa, the program in question freezes, and gives no terminal output different from normal, this happens when programs are run both normally and as root so it isnt a permissions issue. What can i do?
[09:40] <Optimus110103> well
[09:40] <luddite> Lumpy type firefox
[09:40] <Optimus110103> you both helped a lot
[09:40] <jscinoz> i'm this | | close to switching back to windows as no one has helped in more than 2 days...
[09:40] <thatguy> thnx i gess.. i honestly love helping out but like this irc is realy odd...
[09:40] <thatguy> i hate typing names every time..
[09:40] <Optimus110103> the little bar is bouncing back and forth
[09:40] <riotkittie> jscinoz: what do you need help with?
[09:40] <MatthewV> thatguy, just type the start and hit tab - works in most irc clients
[09:40] <Optimus110103> dont type the name
[09:40] <thatguy> but good luch with your unix expericance... its fun ...
[09:41] <Optimus110103> just type the first letter or two and hit tab
[09:41] <abcent> thatguy: I click up, till name comes up :))
[09:41] <thatguy> Optimus110103:  lmao.. wow thats easy
[09:41] <jscinoz> riotkittie this:
[09:41] <jscinoz> Whenever any program at all tries to output sound over alsa, the program in question freezes, and gives no terminal output different from normal, this happens when programs are run both normally and as root so it isnt a permissions issue. What can i do?
[09:41] <thatguy> well thank you then!
[09:41] <Optimus110103> np
[09:41] <Optimus110103> the little orange bar is still bouncing back and forth
[09:42] <Optimus110103> wait its loading
[09:42] <riotkittie> jscinoz: is this something that just started happening? new install or no?
[09:42] <Agent_bob>  for password and login but it does not authenticate me anymore <<< can you be a little more specific ?    where are you having this issue ?
[09:42] <jscinoz> Just started happening, had perfect alsa since gutsy tribe4
[09:42] <thatguy> ya like agent bob said.. live disk are kinda dinky slow.. if it runs kinda good expect it to run good once installed.. because that delay from the cd is taken out
[09:42] <abcent> Optimus110103: Ha Ha the birth of a new Ubuntu
[09:42] <Agent_bob> err  tvade  ^
[09:42] <riotkittie> jscinoz: any updates just before this started?
[09:42] <jscinoz> none thati know of
[09:43] <jscinoz> and icant recall changing anything alsa related
[09:43] <Optimus110103> is the screen supposed to turn tan and start flashing random colors?
[09:43] <abcent> Optimus110103: yes
[09:43] <k31th> If i my subnet is <IP_ADDRESS>/24 and my linux box has a eth adsl modem with the ip of <IP_ADDRESS> and i want to access it from computer on my lan, would i do "route add -net <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS> dev eth0" eth0 being my wan interface (the modem is obv on the wan interface).
[09:43] <Agent_bob> flashing random colors???
[09:43] <Optimus110103> the graphics look all screwed up everything is digitized
[09:43] <riotkittie> jscinoz: hate to say this, but i have no idea :P
[09:43] <Optimus110103> and phasing in and out
[09:44] <Optimus110103> this can't be right
[09:44] <tvade> erUSUL: thanks i go try
[09:44] <zetheroo> I am looking for a Ubuntu pro ...... please contact me if you are one
[09:44] <abcent> Optimus110103: using Ubuntu is very slow from the CD , as Agent Bob said .... once installed, it takes off like a rocket
[09:44] <thatguy> ks Optimus110103... i have a odd qestion
[09:44] <gluonman> how do you force mount an external hdd?
[09:44] <Agent_bob> yeah that don't sound right.   try the safe graphics mode.
[09:44] <jscinoz> >_<
[09:44] <tvade> Agent_bob: Thanks I go try
[09:44] <thatguy> do you have a graphix card...
[09:44] <Optimus110103> i do
[09:44] <thatguy> dual plugs?
[09:44] <Optimus110103> nvidia 7300 gt
[09:44] <Agent_bob> tvade err not you...
[09:44] <thatguy> siwtch the plugs.. if your pluged into the dvi.. move to the vga
[09:44] <Optimus110103> it has vga dvi and svideo
[09:44] <Optimus110103> im on vga
[09:44] <riotkittie> have you tried searching the forums to see if anyone with a similar sound device is having the same issue?
[09:44] <tafsen> How do I get xvid support to ffmpeg?
[09:45] <Agent_bob> tvade i need more info from you before i can answer you.
[09:45] <Optimus110103> would my refresh rates be an issue
[09:45] <thatguy> ohs.. well i know when i have a montior pluged in both.. one works just fine and the other flickers...
[09:45] <jscinoz> woot i fixed it :D
[09:45] <abcent> Optimus110103: That should be o with Ubuntu
[09:45] <jscinoz> asoundconf fails...
[09:45] <thatguy> .. umm... when you move your mouse dose it seem to effect the screen?
[09:45] <abcent> Optimus110103: could be
[09:45] <jscinoz> i wiped out the config made by asoundconf and did it manually, works now
[09:45] <Optimus110103> not at all i cant even see my mouse
[09:45] <Agent_bob> i hate it when four/five people all think that you are talking to them...  then  they get mad because what you say doesn't work.
[09:45] <riotkittie> yaaaay.
[09:45] <Optimus110103> its just blocky colors
[09:46] <abcent> Optimus110103: reduce res
[09:46] <thatguy> oks... like somone else just said... try booting in save graphix mode
[09:46] <MatthewV> Agent_bob, try prefixing your responses with a nick :)
[09:46] <thatguy> from the boot screen
[09:46] <thatguy> hit ctl alt del
[09:46] <Agent_bob> optimus110103  yeah that don't sound right.   try the safe graphics mode.
[09:46] <Agent_bob> MatthewV i have been.
[09:46] <Optimus110103> gotcha
[09:46] <thatguy> thats odd normaly a namebrand card is always well suported
[09:47] <Optimus110103> ill try safe mode
[09:47] <Agent_bob> safe grphics option at boot time.
[09:47] <abcent> thatguy: I agree there, I had no problem with two installs .... one high-end card, one low-end card
[09:47] <esr> luddite: I doubt that's it -- bith misbehaving systems have ATI cards and don't have nvidia-glx installed.
[09:47] <thatguy> normaly when my 5900 fx  has dual montiors pluged in.. ( for xp ) and i boot to unix with one display the second montor ( normaly the one on the dvi to vga adaptor ) FLIPS out.. like with the colors and crap
[09:48] <riotkittie> what kind of atis?
[09:48] <Agent_bob> thatguy abcent i always have trubble if the chip is ati...  never if nvidia or intel
[09:48] <MatthewV> thatguy, have you set both monitors up correctly using System --> Administration --> Screens and Graphics ?
[09:48] <abcent> thatguy: to which you would expect
[09:49] <abcent> Agent_bob we agree 110%
[09:49] <thatguy> lol.. same here.. nvidia is flawless for me.. now my freind swears by ati.. just he has had better time with ati then i have..
[09:49] <Agent_bob> 10-4
[09:50] <thatguy> i have no CLUE how to setup dual montiors.. cuz i set it up .. and test it..it works i hit save xorg.. and reboot .. and then xserver crashs.. so i replace the xorg with the backed up one..and gave up
[09:50] <thatguy> i did it like 4 times.. so i just give up with dual monitors on unix
[09:50] <Optimus110103> ok
[09:50] <Optimus110103> back to the bouncy bar
[09:50] <thatguy> lol
[09:50] <Optimus110103> this time in safe raphics mode
[09:50] <Optimus110103> with a g even
[09:50] <Agent_bob> can anyone set my mind at ease, and tell me how i can have this proccess running ???   " /USR/SBIN/CRON "
[09:51] <thatguy> Optimus110103:  i have a realy dumb qestion... that outa make somebody laugh ... are these two compuer in the same room.. or like in diff rooms..a ndyou have to run back and forth?

[09:52] <riotkittie> why?
[09:52] <Agent_bob> it's like totally 'wak' !   there is not anything with all caps on this box   so how can it be all caps in the proccess table ?    this is weirding me out.
[09:52] <abcent> Optimus110103: I hold up a cross when somebody comes in with HP pc
[09:53] <Optimus110103> here theres about to be a lot of text on screen guys but this might help you understand

[09:53] <Agent_bob> Optimus110103 no
[09:53] <gluonman> How do you force mount an external hdd?
[09:53] <jscinoz> What does "Option        "FastTLS" "2"" in xorg.conf do?
[09:53] <Agent_bob> !paste | Optimus110103
[09:53] <ubotu> Optimus110103: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:54] <Optimus110103> its not that much
[09:54] <Optimus110103> about twenty lines
[09:54] <thatguy> LMAO...
[09:54] <Optimus110103> is that too much>
[09:54] <Optimus110103> ?
[09:54] <riotkittie> sigh.  that's obnoxious.
[09:54] <Agent_bob> you'll get kicked for 3 linse
[09:54] <Polis_ttt> zetheroo: yes, you need alsa
[09:54] <Agent_bob> lines even
[09:55] <Optimus110103> oh btw it loaded its all pretty and purple swoopidy
[09:55] <Optimus110103> ok
[09:55] <Optimus110103> how do i use this paste bin thing
[09:55] <thatguy> hey optimus..im gona give you a hinty ... ubuntu has partnerd with dell so the dell your using will boot ubuntu no problem if you just wana try it
[09:55] <Agent_bob> see the link   ^
[09:55] <zetheroo> Polis_ttt: but I have it
[09:55] <jscinoz> WTF....i was listening to some music in rhythmbox, it hung, i ran "killall rhythmbox" and it said permission denied... checked the ownership, the process had somehow become root...
[09:55] <riotkittie> you cant understand their accent, great. but don't label things asinine, and then type things like that. :P
[09:55] <x0k``> lol jscinoz
[09:56] <zetheroo> Polis_ttt: I have reinstalled alsa.... and still nothing
[09:56] <gluonman> My external hdd cannot be mounted ever since my computer froze while in the middle of writing files to the external hdd (NTFS format). Now, to try to recover it, I am wondering how I can force mount it and what the risks of that might be. But I at least need someone to exlain how I force mount it.
[09:56] <thatguy> ( im learning too) .. yes
[09:56] <Optimus110103> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46069/
[09:56] <thatguy> now when i click paste whats gona hppen?
[09:56] <Agent_bob> jscinoz app is suid or you called it with sudo/gksu....
[09:56] <thatguy> WOW.. thats easy
[09:56] <Optimus110103> did that work
[09:57] <riotkittie> gluonman: do you have access to a Windows OS? i'd suggest a defrag and a chkdsk.  forcing may result in data loss.
[09:57] <Agent_bob> Optimus110103 looking now.
[09:57] <Optimus110103> if so thats my system
[09:57] <Optimus110103> ok
[09:57] <thatguy> yep thats a shoping list
[09:57] <Optimus110103> its sitting next to me in a pretty black and blue case
[09:57] <gluonman> riotkittie, the data I have on my external hdd is also on my laptop. I could always rewrite it if I lost the data.
[09:57] <Optimus110103> and its running ubuntu
[09:57] <gluonman> riotkittie, I don't have access to a Windows OS.
[09:58] <Joshooa> Can I get some wireless help? I keep getting disconnected from my game!
[09:58] <thatguy> oks... now you got it working?
[09:58] <Optimus110103> its working
[09:58] <Optimus110103> it loaded in safe mode
[09:58] <Optimus110103> any tips on getting it to load in standard
[09:58] <thatguy> i got nothing
[09:59] <gluonman> riotkittie, so, given that, I would still like to try force mounting it fully prepared for data loss. It just seems easier with my lack of Windows OS availability.
[09:59] <riotkittie> gluonman: i think that you just add --force to the line as you try to mount it but its been so long i'm not 100% on that. mount -t ntfs /dev/path /mount/path --force
[09:59] <abcent> Optimus110103: What res does your monitor support up to?
[09:59] <jscinoz> Agent_bob i definately didnt call it with sudo/gksu
[09:59] <abcent> Optimus110103: mines 1440x900
[09:59] <Optimus110103> 1440x900
[09:59] <gluonman> riotkittie, I'll try that.
[10:00] <Optimus110103> samsung syncmaster
[10:00] <riotkittie> but if you dont have access to a win OS, one has to ask... why use a windows fs?
[10:00] <thatguy> it was nice talking to you alls ... but it is totaly my sleep time... optimus i hope that you have tons of fun with ubuntu ..  and agian... enjoy.... opensource..its GREAT... its just a learning curve that kicks
[10:00] <Optimus110103> 19 inch wide
[10:00] <gluonman> riotkittie, but I don't know the path. How do I check that?
[10:00] <abcent> Optimus110103: ViewSonic
[10:00] <jscinoz> well im off to play wow, bye all :)
[10:00] <Optimus110103> thaks thatguy
[10:00] <thatguy> oks .. qestion for any one else that has .... 19 widescreens why dose it keep reconsing it as 1440 1xxx somthing..
[10:00] <gluonman> riotkittie, I'm only keeping the external hdd formatted to ntfs just in case I ever go someplace where there is a Windows computer and I want to have access to my files.
[10:00] <thatguy> DRIVES ME NUTS.. that i cant get it to 900 like i can in xp..
[10:01] <Agent_bob> Optimus110103 safe graphics mode uses vesa vidio driver rather than trying to use a card specific one.   you can install your driver from the propritary source.    ubotu knows a page on that   "/msg ubotu ati "   for more.    but while using the cd just use the vesa driver,
[10:01] <odb|fidel_> hi
[10:01] <kartofelek> hi
[10:01] <Optimus110103> ok
[10:01] <odb|fidel_> i am getting several 104-errors while updating my ubuntu dapper
[10:01] <gluonman> riotkittie, but how do I determine what the path is?
[10:01] <riotkittie> gluonman: i'd try. uhm. assuming you have one internal hd, i'd try /dev/sdb1 ... you could also /dev/sd<tab tab>
[10:01] <Optimus110103> thanksill be back im gonna go play for a minute
[10:01] <thatguy> well agian..im outie... i had fun helping every one... nighty from me.. good morning to you
[10:02] <Optimus110103> thanks again
[10:02] <thatguy> np
[10:02] <abcent> thatguy: mines works perfect, did you install the latest drivers from Nvidia
[10:02] <riotkittie> wait. does this drive normally automount?
[10:02] <thatguy> yep... its just every once in a while some linux distros find my displays as 1440 by 1000 some crap..
[10:02] <thatguy> and like the display is all streached out
[10:02] <gluonman> riotkittie, hmm. Still not sure what the specific path is.
[10:02] <thatguy> i have two acer's ... so it could jsut be cuz cheap displays..idk
[10:03] <abcent> thatguy: strange indeed
[10:03] <thatguy> they look good and with alittle fidling it works just anyoing at times
[10:03] <savvas> how can I find out information about a server? i.e. its operating system
[10:03] <thatguy> i didnt know if any one else with widscreens has this happen
[10:03] <Agent_bob> riotkittie sudo fdisk -l    or cat /proc/partitions    will reviel what's avalable.
[10:03] <odb|fidel_> any ideas howto get rid of those 104-errors while updating from security.ubuntu.com ?
[10:03] <thatguy> but agian .. laters
[10:03] <abcent> thatguy: catchya
[10:03] <gluonman> riotkittie, it does normally automount.
[10:04] <riotkittie> Agent_bob: bless you, you're a saint. i knew that  but ... it's 5am and my brain long since went to bed :P
[10:04] <savvas> odb|fidel_: something with "Translation"? if so, ignore them
[10:04] <riotkittie> gluonman: do what Agent_bob suggested... open a terminal and sudo fdisk -l
[10:04] <gluonman> riotkittie, but I was busy writing data to the ext hdd when my computer froze.
[10:04] <Agent_bob> riotkittie heh  yeah.   maybe you should join it   lol    :)
[10:04] <odb|fidel_> savvas: no. i.e. for samba-common, locales,mysql-client
[10:05] <erUSUL> savvas: nmap can guess te oss by its tcp/ip fingerprint
[10:05] <erUSUL> the OS*
[10:05] <savvas> odb|fidel_: can you paste a log at www.pastebin.ca and give me the link?
[10:05] <riotkittie> Agent_bob: i was thinking the same thing but my kid has a doctor's appt this morning. i took a sleeping pill at 1, and it just kicked in. i go to bed and i'm not getting up til like 3 :x
[10:05] <gluonman> riotkittie, when I add --force it says that it is an unrecognized option.
[10:06] <odb|fidel_> savvas: yeah, gimme a sec
[10:06] <savvas> erUSUL: with the -O option?
[10:06] <erUSUL> savvas: if it's a public (notorius) server maybe netcraft.com knows about it
[10:06] <brobostigon> hi
[10:06] <Agent_bob> odb|fidel_ check the mirror you are using,   the security repos shouldn't have a mirror i think.   i.e.  deb http://??.web/addr/here    no ??.  on the security
[10:06] <savvas> ah erUSUL I forgot about that site :) thanks
[10:07] <gluonman> riotkittie, and when I try to mount it without --force it doesn't do anything.
[10:07] <luddite> Agent_bob : ok - backup worked now i will run  sudo fsck.vfat -a /dev/sdb1 : is that correct? or should i run without the -a option (which will auto repair) and then usr the backup bootsector?
[10:07] <Agent_bob> yes
[10:07] <luddite> hahah
[10:07] <luddite> yes to both?
[10:07] <odb|fidel_> savvas: http://www.pastebin.ca/800314
[10:07] <Agent_bob> assuming the device is sdb1
[10:08] <luddite> it is
[10:08] <luddite> so -a?
[10:08] <Agent_bob> yes or without it.
[10:08] <luddite> ok
[10:08] <luddite> cool
[10:08] <luddite> here goes nothing
[10:08] <gluonman> riotkittie, you there? What do I do now?
[10:08] <luddite> i no there is no warranty - but it wont(cant) effect other partitions can it?
[10:08] <odb|fidel_> Agent_bob: i am using security.ubuntu.com
[10:09] <luddite> no = know
[10:09] <riotkittie> okay, gluonman try mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/path /mount/path -o force
[10:09] <JPSman> how do I link a desktop icon to a command ran in the terminal?
[10:09] <Agent_bob> odb|fidel_   sudo apt-get update    and see if it throws any errors at you.
[10:09] <riotkittie> JPSman: right click, create launcher
[10:09] <odb|fidel_> Agent_bob: apt-get update works like a charme
[10:09] <odb|fidel_> Agent_bob: problem comes while apt-get upgrade
[10:10] <JPSman> riotkittie - thank i'll try that
[10:10] <Agent_bob> JPSman make a launcher with the command in it
[10:10] <JPSman> Agent_bob - ditto thank you
[10:10] <Agent_bob> odb|fidel_ yes but update will update the package database
[10:10] <savvas> odb|fidel_: sometimes you have to wait a bit, the security server gets a lot of hits
[10:11] <odb|fidel_> Agent_bob: yes. but actually i have entered that cmd severa ltimes before joining here :D
[10:11] <odb|fidel_> mh
[10:11] <gluonman> riotkittie, it's still not mounted. I typed sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb -o force
[10:11] <JPSman> Agent_bob - works wonders thank you :OD
[10:11] <JPSman> riotkittie - Works wonders thank you :OD
[10:11] <odb|fidel_> savvas: would make sense, as it looks like i get the 104-errors not always for the same packets
[10:11] <Agent_bob> odb|fidel_ so if you do that and it has no error  then do the   apt-get upgrade   or dist-upgrade   and watch for the first error.
[10:11] <odb|fidel_> but its always for about 5 or more
[10:12] <riotkittie> gluonman: you need a partition number, and a mount point :P  /dev/sdb1 /media/wherever the drive should mount
[10:12] <Agent_bob> odb|fidel_ the first error message is the one we need.
[10:12] <odb|fidel_> Agent_bob: its  http://de.archive.ubuntu.com dapper-updates/main locales <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:12] <gluonman> riotkittie, I don't know what the partition number is nor the mount point.
[10:12] <odb|fidel_> a 104 error for locales
[10:13] <odb|fidel_> lol
[10:13] <odb|fidel_> which is not security related in this case
[10:13] <Agent_bob> odb|fidel_ ok then change the mirror,   try  http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com
[10:13] <Optimus110104> hey agent bob
[10:13] <Optimus110104> get this
[10:13] <riotkittie> gluonman: open up a term and sudo fdisk -l ... it should list multiple drives and devices. should be easy to spot. look for the last device listed, and ntfs.
[10:13] <Agent_bob> you'll have to apt-get update after you change it.
[10:13] <kaan> ubuntu FR
[10:13] <riotkittie> err drives and partitions.
[10:14] <odb|fidel_> Agent_bob: is there still a gui way for adding mirrors or is manualy editing interfaces file the only choice in ubuntu ?
[10:14] <luddite> Agent_bob  : partial success so far.
[10:14] <kaan> joint ubuntu fr
[10:14] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104 ?
[10:14] <Optimus110104> im on the other pc using ubuntu im on th pidgin thing
[10:14] <riotkittie> kaan: #ubuntu-fr
[10:14] <punzada> I have an NTFS drive mounted on one machine, I'm ssh'd into that machine, does the nfts-3g driver not work over an SSH connection? when I ls nothing is in the directory.
[10:14] <odb|fidel_> erm, sources.list
[10:14] <Optimus110104> this is so ....COOL
[10:14] <Optimus110104> !
[10:14] <luddite> Agent_bob : now i "mount -a" what happens to those drives already mounted in fstab?
[10:15] <gluonman> riotkittie, found the partition number. I just need the mountpoint, then.
[10:15] <riotkittie> punzada: i have no problem accessing my ntfs partition over ssh. are you sure that its mounted?
[10:15] <Agent_bob> odb|fidel_ yes still in adept  and probably in synaptic   but i just edit the /etc/apt/sources.list  by hand so i can't exactly walk you through the gui way.
[10:15] <punzada> yeah it's mounted
[10:15] <Optimus110104> I am liking this
[10:15] <odb|fidel_> Agent_bob: :P
[10:15] <odb|fidel_> ok thank you so far
[10:15] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104  like i told you.  it will ruin you.
[10:15] <punzada> actually
[10:15] <punzada> maybe not
[10:15] <punzada> hold on
[10:16] <Optimus110104> now i have to redo my email stuffs
[10:16] <Optimus110104> no biggie
[10:16] <luddite> Optimus :- congrats
[10:16] <Optimus110104> thaksa
[10:16] <Agent_bob> there is an importer thingy i think....
[10:16] <Optimus110104> pretend i typed that right
[10:16] <ccube> hi
[10:16] <_6StringKng_> new to linux or something?
[10:16] <luddite> hi ccube
[10:16] <riotkittie> gluonman: we'll make one. sudo mkdir /media/external &&sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/path /media/external -o force      [fix /dev/path to point where it needs to]
[10:16] <bazhang> hi ccube

[10:16] <_6StringKng_> yep
[10:17] <ccube> thx
[10:17] <riotkittie> && sudo, rather. not &&sudo.
[10:17] <ccube> i love it! :)
[10:17] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104 check the forums/wiki   i think there's a tool now that can import mail settings and that sort of thing.
[10:17] <Optimus110104> they just got me up and running maybe 15 minutes ago
[10:17] <MatthewV> ccube, anything we can help you with ?
[10:17] <savvas> odb|fidel_: system > administration > software sources, you can add/remove even third-party repos

[10:18] <bazhang> 7.10 Optimus110104
[10:18] <Optimus110104> ok thats what I am running
[10:18] <Optimus110104> im over on the other pc using xp
[10:18] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104 the versioning nomenclature is   year dot month
[10:18] <_6StringKng_> I found an old 6.06 disc in my dresser
[10:18] <_6StringKng_> lol
[10:18] <deal_> When I first booted up with my Ubuntu ISO, I got a desktop, and I could turn on some cool desktop settings. Now I cant find them. Anyone here can point me in right direction ?
[10:18] <romano> hi
[10:18] <_6StringKng_> System, Prefrences, Appearance
[10:18] <bullgard4> man usplash writes: "usplash - userspace bootsplash daemon." When booting my Ubuntu 7.10 computer shows an Ubuntu usplash but System > Administration > Gnome system monitor > Processes does not show 'usplash'. Why not?
[10:18] <MatthewV> deal_, System --> Preferences --> Appearance
[10:18] <deal_> Thanks
[10:18] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104 and they release every six months
[10:18] <gluonman> riotkittie, $MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 0). Failed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Input/output error NTFS is either inconsistent, or you have hardware faults, or you have a SoftRAID/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot into Windows TWICE. The usage of the /f parameter is very important! If you have SoftRAID/FakeRAID then first you must activate it and mount a different device under the /dev/map
[10:18] <gluonman> per/ directory, (e.g. /dev/mapper/nvidia_eahaabcc1). Please see the 'dmraid' documentation for the details.
[10:19] <_6StringKng_> then visual effects, extra
[10:19] <Optimus110104> isnt ther supposed to be a new version every 6 months or something
[10:19] <MatthewV> oh _6StringKng_ beat me to it :) btw _6StringKng_ i have 5.10 disks still
[10:19] <_6StringKng_> or whatever ytou want it on
[10:19] <savvas> bullgard4: usplash is running only during the bootup
[10:19] <MatthewV> Optimus110103, yep :)
[10:19] <odb|fidel_> savvas: how do i launch that from cli ?
[10:19] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104 and they release every six months  <<< repost
[10:19] <gluonman> riotkittie, that's the same error I get when I try to mount I try to mount it normally by clicking on the disk mounter.
[10:19] <_6StringKng_> lol, I think 6.06 was the first version of ubuntu I used
[10:19] <MaskedOne> So has anyone tried installing and running World of Warcraft in a WinXP VirtualBox install?
[10:19] <_6StringKng_> before than I was using mandriva
[10:19] <_6StringKng_> that*
[10:19] <luddite> Agent_bob : SUCCESS Thanks very much
[10:19] <Optimus110104> oh btw Agent_bob i allready installed my nvidia drivers for my gpu
[10:19] <savvas> odb|fidel_: you mean: gksu --desktop /usr/share/applications/software-properties.desktop /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk
[10:19] <odb|fidel_> savvas: i know howto do it inside sources.list manualy, but its the learning aspect :D
[10:19] <Agent_bob> luddite welcome.
[10:20] <bullgard4> savvas: When this is true (and I believe that it is true), why is it called a daemon?
[10:20] <_6StringKng_> messed with other distros, but Ubuntu imho is the best one I've used
[10:20] <erUSUL> MaskedOne: virtualizers do not have powerfull graphic hardware. Try wine instead

[10:20] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104 good on ya then mate.
[10:20] <Optimus110104> i havnt restarted yet though so it hasnt taken effect
[10:20] <riotkittie> gluonman: okay, so forcing isnt working either. without a Win OS to check the data from, I think it's safe to say it's hopeless.
[10:20] <kaatil> !mx063
[10:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mx063 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:20] <luddite> i cant believe that vfat screwed all ntfs drives from mounting : obviously insane :-)
[10:20] <MaskedOne> Have tried Wine and it does terrible FPS with my ATI 200M card
[10:20]  * Optimus110104 susspects that bob might be an aussie
[10:20] <kaatil> oops wrong channel
[10:20] <MaskedOne> So been trying Virtual XP
[10:20] <testuser> thnks to the developers for doing such a good job on gutsy... just one prob. firefox crashes all the time
[10:20] <gluonman> riotkittie, okay. Thanks for the effort anyway.
[10:20] <_6StringKng_> ati + linux dont work so well
[10:21] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104   /me wonders how you can install vidio drivers and then reboot if using the live cd ....
[10:21] <openuser> hi how i install openssh. i try sudo apt-get install openssh it can not find packet
[10:21] <MaskedOne> However I cant even get it to autorun the install, says it cannot find setup data
[10:21] <Agent_bob> ;/
[10:21] <testuser> on the live cd I mean. any advice?
[10:21] <riotkittie> poor guy. :|
[10:21] <Optimus110104> i tried to do the whole extra graphics  thing and it installed the drivers by itself
[10:21] <ukubuntu> Hi all, I am having problems with browsers and liferea not starting up since recent update. Bar  shows program starting but then disappears.
[10:22] <Optimus110104> recognized my gpu and all too
[10:22] <MatthewV> openuser, sudo apt-get install ssh
[10:22] <_6StringKng_> test, u overclocking your cpu at all?
[10:22] <riotkittie> and he left before i could give my final suggestion. oO
[10:22] <_6StringKng_> testuser*
[10:22] <savvas> bullgard4: you got me there, no idea, but it could be because it's a daemon running during bootup on specific time, plus it has a "bar" that shows you how much it took to load the modules and all the other funky gnu/linux stuff
[10:22] <Optimus110104> oh yeah does ubuntu suppot overclocking well?
[10:22] <_6StringKng_> yeah
[10:22] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104  but rebooting the liveCD you loose all that of course,  so it will be just like it is now...
[10:22] <Optimus110104> oh
[10:22] <Optimus110104> oh well
[10:22] <_6StringKng_> I have my old Linux box overclocked by about 200Mhz, works fine
[10:22] <riotkittie> openuser: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[10:23] <riotkittie> openuser: assuming you want the server. client's preinstalled.
[10:23] <Optimus110104> well i have my x2 5400 over clocked from 2.8 to 3.02
[10:23] <openuser> thanx
[10:23] <savvas> Optimus110104: or: sudo apt-get install ssh
[10:23] <savvas> ;)
[10:23] <Optimus110104> and it seems to be doing fine
[10:23] <Agent_bob> Optimus110104 heh i think it does.  "support over clocking"   i have a p1 100mhz that i run at 233mhz     heh  that's kinda over clocked.
[10:23] <Optimus110104> of course 20 minutes isnt much of a test
[10:23] <_6StringKng_> lol
[10:24] <Optimus110104> i guess so
[10:24] <_6StringKng_> depending on what temps I'm getting I overclock it betweem 180-240MHz
[10:24] <savvas> oops sorry Optimus110104 :P
[10:24] <Optimus110104> my readout right now is 23.8 C
[10:24] <savvas> openuser: or this, installs server and client: sudo apt-get install ssh
[10:24] <slash|crisis> hey everyone. can anybody tell me what measure the ouput of /proc/ide/hda/capacity is in? its not byte i think... (or i am to dumb to calculate it)
[10:24] <Optimus110104> with all my fans turned down
[10:24] <aldren> Agent_bob: did you repair your partition numbers?
[10:24] <erUSUL> Optimus110104: over clocked hardware is by definition a non supported configuration ;P
[10:25] <Optimus110104> hehe
[10:25] <Optimus110104> what kinda games does ubuntu have
[10:25] <ukubuntu>  I am having problems with browsers and liferea not starting up since recent update. Bar  shows program starting but then disappears. Evolution works OK. Cannot delete firefox and reinstall
[10:25] <_6StringKng_> a bunch, go to Applications, Add/Remove
[10:25] <_6StringKng_> then games
[10:25] <luddite> Optimus: check synaptic - search for games
[10:25] <Agent_bob> _6StringKng_ oc on old p1's is not much of a problem with heat  you don't even have to water cool them,   just put the heatsync and fan off of a p3/4 on them and go...

[10:34] <odb|fidel_> Agent_bob: savvas changing the sources from  de.archive.ubuntu.com to archive.ubuntu.com solved the problem
[10:35] <christofer> hi
[10:35] <_6StringKng_> anyone
[10:35] <_6StringKng_> ?
[10:35] <odb|fidel_> strange...do they really have mirror problems on that german mirror or what ?
[10:35] <jlakha_> hi
[10:35] <ukubuntu> erUSUL:  I get Segmentation fault (core dumped) on firefox and liferea
[10:35] <bullgard4> savvas: But not very well.
[10:35] <erUSUL> ukubuntu: ouch!!
[10:35] <savvas> bullgard4: you can always ask at http://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[10:35] <ukubuntu> Uh oh
[10:35] <erUSUL> !bugs | ukubuntu
[10:35] <ubotu> ukubuntu: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots
[10:35] <Agent_bob> Condoulo you can just make the partition,  and format from the cli    sudo mke2fs -jc /dev/hda1  <<< example.
[10:35] <jlakha_> any doc about joomla
[10:35] <_6StringKng_> the onyl modems I ever had any luck with in linux, was extrernal ones
[10:36] <_6StringKng_> only*
[10:36] <Condoulo> I have a question, why is it, when I am partitioning, it mounts the drive.
[10:36] <erUSUL> Condoulo: it is the disk blank? maybe it is asking for a now partition table....
[10:36] <ukubuntu> thx erUSUL will need second pc then :(
[10:36] <jane_> ukubuntu, think after a restart that should go away
[10:36] <Condoulo> erUSUL- it used to have ntfs. But I deleted the ntfs partition
[10:37] <erUSUL> Condoulo: gparted never asked me for a disklabel (or my memory is failing me...)
[10:37] <ukubuntu> jane_: hanks, I have tried soft and hard restarts with no change :(
[10:37] <Condoulo> erUSUL- ah
[10:37] <jane_> ukubuntu, i think a crashed instance of firefox may be the problem
[10:37] <Agent_bob> Condoulo that would probably have something to do with everyone whining and demanding that disks/partitions mount automatically   and then that automounting gets in the way of partitioning/cd-burning/floppy-formatting....
[10:37] <ukubuntu> thanks :$
[10:37] <erUSUL> ukubuntu: install epiphany or other webbrowser
[10:38] <Agent_bob> i'm with erUSUL on the gparted issue
[10:38] <ukubuntu> Thanks guys, I have tried Epiphany and galeon but no joy.
[10:38] <Agent_bob> ukubuntu konqueror ?
[10:39] <Condoulo> Agent_bob- Ah. yeah, the auto-mounting is annoying and screwing up the formatting every time I do format.
[10:39] <ukubuntu> I am guessing it must be in a collective net library as liferea is also affected
[10:39] <jane_> ukubuntu, im running lifera and firefox at the moment without problems perhaps a reinstall may help
[10:39] <luddite> ubuntu sucks becuase i cant run Nuendo under wine in it... therefore i must remain on windows xp ...
[10:40]  * luddite is a sad sad luddite
[10:40] <erUSUL> ukubuntu: then the culprit is gecko (the html renderer used by the three browsers and probably lifarea)
[10:40] <Condoulo> ok, when I am formatting my second hard drive, is there any options I should specifically chose? Primary or Extended?
[10:40] <_6StringKng_> only reason I use windows is for Counter-Strike, tried it using WINE, didn't like the results to much
[10:40] <ukubuntu> thanks jane_ I cannot reinstall firefox as it has other dependants so it may need a complete OS reinstall :(
[10:41] <_6StringKng_> primary for space I believe
[10:41] <Agent_bob> luddite nuendo is a must have eeh...   well don't blame linux for the writers of the app not sharing the code...
[10:41] <christofer> firefox can be uninstalled using synaptic package manager
[10:41] <Agent_bob> luddite if they'll opensource the code, we'll make it run in linux too...
[10:41] <ukubuntu> Thanks for the lead erUSUL not sure how to tackle that then but willing to learn. I will try via synaptic, add/remove would not allow it.
[10:42] <luddite> Agent_bob : yeah i know : its a must have for me : i have about 10 years...well cubase and nuendo.) worth of multitrack songs in nuendo.
[10:42] <H264> how do I download from a CVS?
[10:42] <luddite> on dvd
[10:43] <luddite> Agent_bob : i moved to ubunto studio after trialing ardour on about 60 different distro's
[10:43] <erUSUL> H264: with the cvs client
[10:43] <luddite> mainly debian distros
[10:43] <erUSUL> !info cvs | H264
[10:43] <ubotu> h264: cvs: Concurrent Versions System. In component main, is optional. Version 1:1.12.13-8 (gutsy), package size 1629 kB, installed size 3560 kB
[10:43] <ukubuntu> Synaptic appears to be removing, will let you know.
[10:44] <H264> erUSUL: yeah... I'm looking at man cvs but its not telling me how to use it
[10:44] <H264> cvs -R <url>?
[10:45] <gsuveg> is other editor than gedit  what support gnome-vfs  ?
[10:45] <gsuveg> re
[10:45] <Agent_bob> kate ?
[10:45] <Agent_bob> not sure tho.
[10:46] <gsuveg> Agent_bob, bluefish dont  :(
[10:46]  * Agent_bob </shrugs>
[10:47] <babo> locate *.pdf won't work
[10:47] <babo> it just shows me 3 pdfs in the pwd ...
[10:47] <babo> i want all the pdfs in the system
[10:48] <babo> anyone know what's going on ?
[10:48] <Agent_bob> babo locate uses a database and thus needs updated first.     find /base/dir -type f -iname *.pdf
[10:48] <erUSUL> H264: projects that have cvs access normally do have a how to with the url the username and login etc to check out the sources
[10:48] <babo> Agent_bob, I've updated the db
[10:48] <tarelerulz> anyon have an HP Pavillion dv600 ? with 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 02) 02:00.0 0280: 14e4:4311 (rev 02)
[10:48] <Agent_bob> babo /base/dir being /   ^
[10:49] <erUSUL> H264: example http://common-lisp.net/project/slime/
[10:49] <babo> Agent_bob, locate used to always work fine, since the upgrade though it doesn't seem to work at all.
[10:49] <babo> did someone change the locate program ?
[10:49] <mahousaru> does anyone know if it is possible to encrypt a raid 1 set of drives?  I can set up raid 1, and I can encrypt, but when i mix the two it fails
[10:49] <MatthewV> babo, does slocate do any different?
[10:49] <Agent_bob>      you may want to chuck the errors in /dev/null as well    2>/dev/null
[10:49] <H264> erUSUL: for some reason they don't really like showing how on their website
[10:50] <odb|fidel_> thanks again for the help.
[10:50] <odb|fidel_> bye
[10:50] <erUSUL> H264: what are you trying to check out?
[10:50] <babo> MatthewV, slocate gives the same results
[10:50] <MatthewV> :(
[10:50] <H264> erUSUL: http://fs2source.warpcore.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/cvsweb.cgi/fs2_open/
[10:50] <MatthewV> just a random guess :S
[10:50] <Agent_bob> babo not that i know of.   same old "frustrating" app.   as far as i know.
[10:50] <MatthewV> both return system wide results for me
[10:50] <M-> mahousaru: How are you trying to encrypt? AFAIK, you should be able to create a RAID1 device (i.e. /dev/mdX) and then setup DM-crypt on top of it (create a new device, /dev/mapper/xxxx)
[10:51] <Condoulo> finally! I got the drive to format properly! And I figured out why I couldn't create files. Because the drive was formatted in root. so I just changed permissions.
[10:51] <babo> root@eire:/home/babo# find / -type f -iname *.pdf
[10:51] <babo> find: paths must precede expression
[10:51] <babo> i hate the find tool
[10:51] <Agent_bob> quote it.    find / -type f -iname '*.pdf'
[10:51] <babo> program
[10:51] <babo> Agent_bob, k thanks
[10:52] <_6StringKng_> I use gparted live for formatting/partitioning etc, seems easier
[10:52] <Rockj> how do I get latest (java 1.6) web plugin for firefox?
[10:52] <Agent_bob> you have *.pdf files/dirs in your pwd and the asterisk was being expanded by the shell into those file/dir/names...
[10:52] <gluonman> Okay. I'm back revisiting an issue that I abandoned a while ago. Trying to set up my laptop as a gateway for my desktop to access the internet. Using a cross-over ethernet cable to connect the two boxes. The laptop is receiving an apartment router's wireless signal via a wireless card (this is the internet connection I want to share). And I followed the instructions at http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubunt
[10:52] <gluonman> u.html but to no avail, since the desktop is still not connected.
[10:52] <erUSUL> H264: http://scp.indiegames.us/e107_plugins/custompages/CVS%20-%20Getting%20Started.php
[10:52] <mahousaru> M-: I tried that using the Gutsy alt cd, but on reboot, it doesn't seem to want to decrypt the dm partition.  I'm encrypting the home partition
[10:53] <M-> mahousaru: Did you try decrypting it manually? (i.e. cryptsetup -y /dev/mdX)
[10:53] <Agent_bob> babo reason,  you have *.pdf files/dirs in your pwd and the asterisk was being expanded by the shell into those file/dir/names...
[10:54] <erUSUL> H264: cvs -d :pserver:anonymous:anonymous<EMAIL_ADDRESS>co slime
[10:54] <erUSUL> /home/fs2source/cvsroot
[10:54] <M-> mahousaru: You could also try setting it up manually; there may be some sort of installer bug
[10:54] <ukubuntu> I´m back, uninstalled firefox, restarted, reinstalled ffx same issue is here. thanks for the help, I will perhaps try later in case any other ideas come up but I think it wil end in an OS reinstall.
[10:54] <mahousaru> M-: currently I only tried it via setup, but actually now you mention it, it might be easier for me to set the box up and then do the encrypted partitions
[10:54] <Agent_bob> babo single qoutes preserves wildcards and some special chars
[10:55] <mahousaru> M-: Thanks for the suggestion, I'l do it that way saves me the frustration of installing each time
[10:55] <erUSUL> H264: that should be the command to use afaics -->>> cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anonymous@warpcore.org:/home/fs2source/cvsroot co fs2_open
[10:55] <luddite> Agent_bob thanks once again im going to reboot now - hopefully all will be ok :-)
[10:55] <M-> mahoursaru: No worries. Good luck. :)
[10:55] <Agent_bob> luddite luck with is.
[10:55] <Agent_bob> it
[10:55] <Agent_bob> IT !
[10:56] <scriptha> I need mime magic for apache, but apt-get says libapache2-mod-mime-xattr conflicts with apache2.2-common.. how am I going to install it?
[10:56] <brobostigon> hi
[10:56] <luddite> tHANKS
[10:56] <gluonman> If anyone can, I would like some clues as to how I can connect my desktop computer to the internet by sharing the wireless connection that my laptop is picking up.
[10:56] <Agent_bob> gluonman lappy running linux ?
[10:57] <Optimus110103> im doing the install now
[10:57] <gluonman> Agent_bob, both boxes are running Ubuntu 7.10.
[10:57] <murrayc> Does anyone know if the PPAs can be for Gutsy, or just Hardy?
[11:00] <erUSUL> gluonman: wire the two comoputers and share the conection (firestarter on the laptop can do that iirc)
[11:00] <Agent_bob> gluonman install dnsmasq and ipmasq on the lappy   setup a static ip for the eth card   probably something in the <IP_ADDRESS>/24 range  enable ipv4 forwarding in the /etc/sysctl.conf of all boxen, then set the routing for the other boxen to use the static ip from the lappy as a default gateway   there are plenty of howtos on the web.
[11:00] <simmerz> when i set a directory up for sharing over smb, trying to access it with a windows machine asks me for a username and password. entering mine don't work. any ideas?
[11:00] <simmerz> using gutsy
[11:00] <Optimus110103> I have a question?
[11:01] <gluonman> Agent_bob, I followed a how-to and installed dnsmasq and ipmasq, etc. But when all was finished, I'm guessing that I'm just confused about what to do with the second computer.
[11:02] <Optimus110103> if i make a document with the word processor in ubuntu can i later go and open it on a windows pc using ms word
[11:03] <just_leaving> !samba
[11:03] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[11:03] <threefcata> why does my xchat connect to the same server twice?
[11:03] <brobostigon> yes optimus:: just make it a format both can read
[11:03] <pitoow> Optimus110103
[11:03] <pitoow> yes
[11:03] <Optimus110103> cool
[11:04] <Optimus110103> so all in all thisubuntu thing seems to be leaving the windows os in the dust
[11:04] <Optimus110103> as far as im concerned anyway
[11:04] <brobostigon> it is.
[11:04] <just_leaving> Optimus110103 yes.  but i sujest using a format that is fully supported by both os's     rtf  pdf  txt and the likes...
[11:04] <Optimus110103> installs almost complete
[11:05] <pitoow> just save with doc
[11:05] <Optimus110103> what is this mount and unmount drives thing
[11:05] <luddite> Agent_bob : new error LOL -> fsck.ext3: Unable to resolve 'UUID=37857ad3-5156-4326-b0e6-78325e017ddd'
[11:05] <luddite> fsck died with exit status 8
[11:05] <brobostigon> i use pdf uite often
[11:05] <gluonman> Agent_bob, what do I need to do with the second computer once I do the configurations on the first?
[11:06] <simmerz> what is causing my keyboard and mouse to freeze up in gutsy?
[11:06] <just_leaving> gluonman route add default gw 192.168.blah.blah...
[11:06] <luddite> simmerz : the cold?
[11:06] <simmerz> luddite: yeah. thanks. a great thing when i can hardly do my work!
[11:06] <just_leaving> luddite blkid can show you the UUID info   and sudo fdisk -l can show the partition info
[11:07] <luddite> simmerz : describe the situation
[11:07] <Optimus110103> will ubuntu support lightscribe?
[11:07] <luddite> just_leaving : wikkid thanks
[11:07] <gluonman> just_leaving, and then go to network and put that in static IP address and connect?
[11:07] <Ziroday> simmerz: is your keyboard and mouse coonected via USB, PS2, or wireless?
[11:07] <just_leaving> so say good night to Agent_bob,  cause i'm just_leaving :)
[11:08] <just_leaving> gluonman yep.
[11:08] <Optimus110103> night
[11:08] <simmerz> Ziroday: mouse is usb, keyboard is ps2
[11:08] <luddite> goodnight Agent_bob
[11:08] <gluonman> just_leaving, I'll give that a try.
[11:08] <Ziroday> simmerz: does the keyobard caps lock num lock or scroll lock keys flash when the computer freezes up?
[11:09] <simmerz> Ziroday: no. it just freezes every ten seconds or so and then comes back. I can keep typing but nothing appears on the screen for a while
[11:10] <Ziroday> simmerz: ah, then I have no idea
[11:10] <ecraven> how can i permanently disable the Trash? i want everything to be deleted completely, no Trash on any mount
[11:11] <Tm_T> ecraven: does your filemanager has options related to it?
[11:11] <Optimus110103> will ubuntu support my lightscribe drives
[11:11] <ecraven> isn't there a global setting
[11:12] <Radi01> Optimus: yes
[11:12] <Optimus110103> cool
[11:12] <Radi01> I have 2
[11:12] <Optimus110103> is it imperative that I install the 89 available updates?
[11:13] <_6StringKng_> updates arew important
[11:13] <Optimus110103> well im installing now
[11:13] <Radi01> Which ones...install the cd..the rest are optional.
[11:13] <_6StringKng_> good man
[11:13] <Optimus110103> sor some reason now it wont run any higher thatn 800x600 res
[11:14] <Optimus110103> says it cant support my nvidia gpu
[11:14] <Optimus110103> drivers
[11:14] <_6StringKng_> what card is it?
[11:14] <Optimus110103> hope the updates fix that
[11:14] <Optimus110103> 7300 gt
[11:14] <_6StringKng_> hmm, shoudl work fine
[11:14] <Optimus110103> 512 mb
[11:14] <_6StringKng_> you install the drivers via restricted drivers manager?
[11:15] <Optimus110103> i tried but it said it couldnt do it
[11:15] <_6StringKng_> hmm
[11:15] <_6StringKng_> weird
[11:15] <CISTERNA> kj
[11:15] <Optimus110103> hang on let me see exactly what it says
[11:16] <Optimus110103> something about proprietary drivers
[11:17] <Optimus110103> should I try installing the drivers from the disk that came with the card
[11:17] <Optimus110103> ?
[11:17] <_6StringKng_> no...thats for windows most likely
[11:17] <Optimus110103> thats what i figured
[11:18] <Optimus110103> believe it or not it ran better off the live cd
[11:18] <Optimus110103> it at least ran 1024x768
[11:18] <_6StringKng_> fnny how that stuff works huh, lol
[11:18] <_6StringKng_> 7.04 I had to manually configure xserver but with 7.10 it setup fine when I installed it
[11:18] <Optimus110103> and now i get no better than 8x6
[11:19] <gluonman> Agent_bob, okay. I went through everything again and then wrote sudo ip route add default via <IP_ADDRESS> in a terminal on my second computer (desktop). It just outputs RTNETLINK answers: No such process. Now what?
[11:19] <Optimus110103> bob left
[11:19] <user-ubuntu> hi how can i find my root password, i try su then my password it does not work
[11:19] <_6StringKng_> sudo passwd in terminal, u can change ti that way
[11:20] <Optimus110103> im using a lot of bandwidth right now
[11:20] <gluonman> oh crap, he left.
[11:20] <Optimus110103> runnin kinda laggy
[11:20] <user-ubuntu> no i don't want to change i want to go into root
[11:20] <gluonman> Anyone else know a thing or two about sharing an internet connection with two computers by configuring one of them to act as a gateway?
[11:20] <_6StringKng_> ah
[11:20] <_6StringKng_> recovery mode maybe?
[11:21] <_6StringKng_> in the terminal, or actually login as root?
[11:21] <gluonman> With my laptop, I did ipconfig, configured NAT, installed dnsmasq and ipmasq and configured those, I set a static IP address, etc. Now I'm just having difficulty connecting with the second computer.
[11:22] <gluonman> I also enabled IP forwarding with the first computer.
[11:22] <Optimus110103> completely off subject
[11:22] <_6StringKng_> buy a switch...
[11:22] <Optimus110103> can you polish a titanium ring?
[11:23] <_6StringKng_> google knows all my friend
[11:23] <zpg> hi all
[11:23] <gluonman> I tried inputing sudo ip route add default via <IP_ADDRESS> into a terminal on the second computer but I just get back, RTNETLINK answers: No such process.
[11:23] <Optimus110103> i guess so
[11:23] <gluonman> _6StringKng_, I would buy a switch, or just a wireless adaptor for my desktop, but I have no money. So I'm trying to figure it out the cheap, though more complicated, way.
[11:23] <_6StringKng_> hehe, I hear that
[11:24] <gluonman> Optimus110103, a titanium ring? I have no idea.
[11:24] <_6StringKng_> I want a wireless access point but no money, so may have to conjure up some money for a cheaper wireless router instead
[11:24] <zpg> I have a problem on this ubuntu installation (and am new to the distribution). basically, i find the console font unreadable, so i switched to 80x50. Once I enter X11, however, the consoles are fried. Fried meaning: there's a blank line between each line of text, and scrolling is broken (i.e., scrolling means I can't see the bottom of the screen).
[11:24] <gluonman> google
[11:25] <zpg> There's a netbsd thread about this, but I can't see any ubuntu-specific information...
[11:25] <zpg> anyone have any idea?
[11:25] <jscinoz> is there anyway to reset all alsa configuration?
[11:25] <gluonman> _6StringKng_, I've been trying to figure out this whole gateway thing for the last two days. Someone will walk me part of the way through, then I'm stuck. I have yet to find an online how-to that really covers EVERYTHING.
[11:27] <_6StringKng_> I'm afraid the only internet connection sharing I've ever dealt with was with windows, sharing a crappy dial-up connection with my cousin when he would visit, lol
[11:27] <_6StringKng_> in windows
[11:27] <_6StringKng_> never dealt with anything like than using linux
[11:28] <gluonman> _6StringKng_, I'm just going to give it a rest for yet another night. I have all day tomorrow off so I'll work on it then. Now I need some sleep.
[11:28] <gluonman> good night every one!
[11:28] <_6StringKng_> cya
[11:29] <riotkittie> remove & --purge alsa then reinstall? surely, there's a better way. but i dont know what it is.
[11:30] <brobostigon> gluonman:: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/howtos.html
[11:30] <linux_> help?
[11:31] <riotkittie> with?
[11:31] <linux_> how can i stop my mouse from glitching on ubuntu
[11:31] <_6StringKng_> when you say glitching?  you mean?
[11:32] <linux_> like my mouse gose crazy for a sec then stops
[11:32] <_6StringKng_> hmm
[11:32] <linux_> yea
[11:32] <_6StringKng_> have you tried a different mouse, or is specific to ubuntu, do you also run windows?
[11:32] <linux_> no just ubuntu on my pc
[11:32] <linux_> and i have no other mouses
[11:33] <_6StringKng_> when did this problem start occuring?
[11:33] <linux_> when i first put ubuntu on my comp
[11:33] <cool> my mic is not working!!
[11:33] <_6StringKng_> lol
[11:33] <linux_> ?
[11:33] <cool> anyone ?
[11:34] <brobostigon> !mic | cool
[11:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mic - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:34] <brobostigon> !sound | cool
[11:34] <ubotu> cool: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[12:04] <Gordon_Freeman> i never seem this here
[12:04] <antillusionati> chinese and spanish as i know it
[12:04] <madera> antillusionati: the third in the world
[12:04] <madera> POrtuguese be it Brazilian or Portuguese is _very_ hard
[12:04] <madera> antillusionati: Chinese if counted by HEADS, but if counted by COUNTRY, then it's a whole different story.
[12:04] <cool> nah never seen hindi speaker here
[12:04] <Gordon_Freeman> humm
[12:05] <Gordon_Freeman> madera: yes is very hard
[12:05] <Mouldy> depends if you're on about native language or just a language people can speak

I just copied a 16gb folder to my usb drive, copied that to another computer, and then bought it back to this computer and deleted it. linux says its deleted, however, the space has never been reallocated. its like the 16gb of stuff is still there but its not.
[12:10] <madera> FluxD: thanks, but how can I solve the problem?
[12:10] <FluxD> madera: sorry no clue
[12:11] <Gordon_Freeman> CppIsWeird: maybe this can be a bug of the program with some kind of hardware

[12:15] <jacob_> copy and paste your results at www.pastebin.com
[12:15] <jacob_> lshw stands for list hardware

[12:16] <jacob_> MartinW, note that i'm also new to linux, but have gained experienced installing drivers
[12:16] <MartinW> I've got a bit of a problem since my modem is the one I'm talking to you on, I've got a spare one but it hasn't got a SIM card.
[12:16] <jacob_> MartinW: but hold that i'll be back
[12:16] <tarelerulz> have any of you try the bcm43xx replacements
[12:16] <MartinW> The modem is on a Windows computer shared over a LAN.
[12:17] <jacob_> what type of modem is it? broadband or narowbrand?
[12:17] <TrioTorus> how should I install 32bit python on my 64bit gutsy installation?

[12:20] <MartinW> The outputs more than the terminal buffer.
[12:20] <Gordon_Freeman> jacob_: what is a narrowbrand connection?
[12:20] <MartinW> I'll redirect it to a file.

[12:46] <Beefcake4000> ctrl-alt-del continues the startup but seems to kill rcs and rc6
[12:46] <aldren> gaurish__, the things come back to their own places, hehehe
[12:47] <gaurish__> aldren, still the problem is not solved!!!!!
[12:47] <jacob_> MartinW: in the mean while, let me read the page so i get started with you
[12:47] <WorkingOnWise> how can I install an older version on a newer version with apt?
[12:47] <MartinW> ok
[12:47] <aldren> gaurish__, control +alt +backspace, restart the X :)
[12:48] <jacob_> MartinW: narrowbrand is the same as dial up, just wanna make sure where in the same page
[12:48] <jacob_> MartinW: is that clear?
[12:48] <MartinW> Yes.
[12:48] <jacob_> ok
[12:48] <MartinW> Yes.
[12:48] <jacob_> give me a sec
[12:49] <Ximal> mail delivery agent... what is that ?
[12:49] <Beefcake4000> can somebody maybe just tell me where the rcS script is - maybe that's causing the hang?
[12:49] <gaurish__> aldren, will that reset my network also, as this work also serves as a server for small LAN
[12:49] <Ximal> !mda
[12:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mda - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:49] <aldren> no
[12:49] <aldren> it isn't reset your network...only the X
[12:49] <aldren> X server.
[12:50] <jacob_> MartinW: type....
[12:50] <sharpie> Ximal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_delivery_agent
[12:51] <wertigo8888> hi
[12:51] <fevel> hello
[12:51] <fevel> im having trouble with my mouse
[12:52] <Ximal> would a mail delivery agent be OUTLOOK EXPRESS or Thunderbird by mozilla ?
[12:52] <Beefcake4000> I think rcS and/or rc6 are hanging my startup - could anybody help?
[12:52] <Gordon_Freeman> some here are using modem 56k in linux?
[12:52] <_6StringKng_> lolz
[12:52] <Gordon_Freeman> or trying to use
[12:52] <_6StringKng_> I have this extra button on my mouse I use on my laptop, just figured out the extra works as copy/paste
[12:52] <jacob_> http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gnome-ppp/gnome-ppp_0.3.23-0ubuntu2_i386.deb
[12:52] <jacob_> download this file
[12:52] <_6StringKng_> extra button*
[12:52] <_6StringKng_> you can get it from add/remove but yeah
[12:53] <_6StringKng_> still doesnt help me
[12:53] <wertigo8888> I've a big problem with my wifi key D-link G122. With live distro all is fine but with an installed 7.04 system I have a total block of the os
[12:53] <fevel> its a usb optic mouse on a pavillion notebook and from some time ago it started having trou ble with the sensitivity, the poiter sticks if I mave a little faster
[12:53] <Beefcake4000> Ximal - my understanding of mda is an application that takes mail from one location (pop/mail directory/smtp) and passes to a program like procmail which is capable of saving the mail as an actual message
[12:53] <jacob_> MartinW: download http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gnome-ppp/gnome-ppp_0.3.23-0ubuntu2_i386.deb
[12:53] <MartinW> Done
[12:53] <fevel> it doesnt reproduce on windows
[12:53] <brobostigon> i also have a dlink g122, but never got it working on any linux ever.
[12:54] <brobostigon> even with ndiswrapper
[12:54] <Ximal> beefcake4000 : I noticed in the postfix tutorial i am about to do ... It says something about changing my mda .. But I dunno what mda it uses.. as I only use smtp ... smtp only.. not a smarthost..
[12:54] <jacob_> MartinW: go to the terminal and type....
[12:54] <Ximal> so does this mean i will be ok when i set my maildir properly etc ?
[12:54] <jacob_> MartinX: put the downloaded file in the desktop
[12:55] <wertigo8888> I've tried also with ndiswrapper
[12:55] <jacob_> MartinW: put the downloaded file in the desktop
[12:55] <Gordon_Freeman> VouEmboraLogo: change this!!!
[12:55] <wertigo8888> all is fine with a live os
[12:55] <jacob_> MartinW: to make things easier
[12:55] <MartinW> ok
[12:56] <w8> iiiiii
[12:56] <jacob_> MartinW, now go to the terminal and type...
[12:56] <jacob_> MartinW, did you install the downloaded package?
[12:56] <Gordon_Freeman> girlinuxx: hi
[12:56] <UstasW> Hello
[12:57] <MartinW> Should I?
[12:57] <Freeman> girlinuxx: did you see me?
[12:57] <jacob_> MartinW: yes
[12:57] <girlinuxx> yes
[12:57] <Freeman> girlinuxx: hahahahah
[12:57] <girlinuxx> :-D
[12:57] <sharpie> MartinW: just wondering - what exactly is your problem?
[12:57] <Freeman> girlinuxx: so i can use the recorder with 1 hour or more of duration time?
[12:57] <MartinW> I have a USB modem that I want to install.
[12:58] <Freeman> girlinuxx: whithout complications... right?
[12:58] <girlinuxx> yes
[12:58] <Freeman> humm

[12:58] <Freeman> girlinuxx: very well
[12:58] <MartinW> Couldn't open <package name>
[12:58] <jacob_> MartinW: after you install the file, in the terminal type in sudo dpkg -i Desktop/gnome-ppp_0.3.23-0ubuntu2_i386.deb or install it manually
[12:58] <Freeman> girlinuxx: without problems?
[12:58] <girlinuxx> yes
[12:58] <MartinW> Corrupted or not correct permissions.
[12:59] <sharpie> MartinW: what kind of modem?
[12:59] <Beefcake4000> Ximal - I have the following... fetchmail polls a pop server for new mail, on retrival it pipes this information to procmail (which is an mda) . procmail then processes the piped data and turns it into a physical e-mail on the disk
[12:59] <girlinuxx> its recordind beautifulzinho
[12:59] <Beefcake4000> I think!
[12:59] <girlinuxx> hahahaha

[12:59] <Ximal> i'm trying to figure out how to host my own email.. I'm tired of waiting to check etc.. my email / for it etc..
[12:59] <Beefcake4000> you need to setup a .fetchmailrc
[13:00] <Freeman> girlinuxx: but the preocupations is very
[13:00] <Ximal> If I run this server and I make it so all can send to me and i them.. then i'll be ok
[13:00] <girlinuxx> my convocation to presidente prudente still didnt out

[13:02] <Freeman> hahahahaha
[13:02] <girlinuxx> Freeman: .amr
[13:02] <girlinuxx> Freeman: i never see this
[13:02] <jacob_> MartinW, i never used this app but if we connect each other's system i can gain control over it and install it for you
[13:02] <MartinW> ok.
[13:03] <Freeman> girlinuxx: i think its a little hard to find a program that convert this file to wav or mp3
[13:03] <MartinW> The package is still installing.
[13:03] <girlinuxx> Freeman: humm
[13:03] <girlinuxx> Freeman: and now?
[13:03] <Freeman> girlinuxx: there is no problem with this
[13:03] <MartinW> Setting up gnome-ppp. It freezes at that.
[13:03] <Ximal> amr is a cellular file
[13:03] <Ximal> for cell phones girlinuxx
[13:04] <Freeman> Ximal: it is possible to convert to wav?
[13:04] <Ximal> I convert them in windows / from wav mp3 files.. but you'll need to shrink them etc..
[13:04] <Ximal> no..
[13:04] <Ximal> You will need to be able to listen to them in windows..
[13:04] <Ximal> I never really tried in linux yet..
[13:04] <girlinuxx> Freeman: Ahhhh... so it's goooood
[13:04] <MartinW> jacob_: What should I do now?
[13:04] <Ximal> It's a bluetooth sapped file from the cellphone such as a ringtone or midi
[13:04] <jacob_> MartinW: give me a sec
[13:04] <Freeman> Ximal: hmmm

[13:05] <Ximal> why would you want to change it to a file useable in linux anyhow ?
[13:05] <Ximal> shouldn't you be converting the files of ogg and wav to amr's instead ?
[13:05] <Freeman> girlinuxx: repply girl!
[13:05] <Freeman> girlinuxx: the good linux users peaple

[13:09] <jacob_> MartinW: i'm sorry, but the book only explains the modem installation in a way but there are many different ways, if the modem is not detected then i can't solve your problem
[13:09] <punzada> Okay, general gnu/linux question that's been bugging the shit out of me, when the uptime command is called you get the three load averages, what is the scale of the load reading? i've seen it under one and as high as 17?

[13:11] <Freeman> aldren: heheheh
[13:11] <Pici> punzada: the uptime manpage explains what the load averages mean
[13:11] <MartinW> I use pidgin.
[13:11] <Freeman> aldren: you too?
[13:11] <Ximal> pidgin ftw!
[13:11] <jacob_> MartinW: i have beginning ubuntu book, but make sure you have the latest version of it, research it in the internet like ebay or amazon or basically go to barnes and noble or borders

[13:13] <nanushka> oops
[13:13] <flo> Anybody knows if i can use my 6.1 soundsystem with audigy 2 zs at ubuntu ???
[13:13] <punzada> no
[13:13] <punzada> it still doesn't make sense
[13:14] <punzada> I've seen load averages on certain systems as high as 16
[13:14] <Pici> punzada: What part are you confused about?
[13:14] <punzada> they don't have 16 processors taxed out
[13:14] <Ximal> flo : if it has the speaker ports in the back.. why not test them by watching a movie with 6.1 surround system Setup on it ?
[13:14] <Pici> punzada: Perhaps they have 16 processes running though
[13:15] <punzada> hmm I didn't know it scaled per-process
[13:15] <blackfox_> igtg now
[13:15] <blackfox_> bye
[13:15] <flo> Ximal :  yea good idea
[13:16] <Ximal> flo : does ur soundcard only have 1 audio out port ? or specific speaker outputs ?
[13:16] <Ximal> mine has speaker outputs itself and a center channel too
[13:16] <flo> My question was bit crappy ^
[13:17] <Ximal> flo : no question is awful enough ti can't be asked .. k 8 ?
[13:17] <Ximal> m8*

[13:18] <misc--> hi. On my ethernet interface, when I unplug the network cable, the interface automatically goes down. How can I disable this? When the network is unplugged, I want the interface to remain up with the IP assigned to it (static) ?

[13:18] <marckie> hello?
[13:18] <marckie> !ping
[13:18] <ubotu> pong
[13:18] <flo> i think thats better  my audigy supports 7.1 thats not the problem
[13:18] <Ximal> Flo .. you see the speaker icon ? up top right ?
[13:18] <flo> yep
[13:18] <Ximal> double click it like u would in windows to open the vol control
[13:18] <Ximal> ok ?
[13:19] <misc--> the only reason why I want it to stay enabled is because when a network cable is plugged in, it doesn't come back up, I always have to manually assign the IP again
[13:19] <Ximal> Let me know when you have it up
[13:19] <Ximal> k ?
[13:19] <flo> ok
[13:19] <Ximal> see the word FILE ?
[13:19] <lol_pop> lol
[13:19] <Ximal> click it and then hit change devices..
[13:20] <Ximal> it will shwo you your current device and alternate devices..
[13:20] <MartinW> How do  find out whats my kernel version?
[13:20] <flo> yes i can c that my audigy is active
[13:20] <Sharpie> MartinW: uname -a
[13:20] <Ximal> If you look @ it .. You will notice if it says ICH0 through 6
[13:20] <Ximal> if it says like ICH6
[13:20] <MartinW> thanks
[13:20] <Ximal> then it's 6 channel capable
[13:20] <Ximal> and active to emulate those channels onto your soundcard ;)
[13:21] <flo> hmm it say nothing to me
[13:21] <Ximal> lemme paste a screenshot and alter it on pastebin for u
[13:21] <Ximal> it will help u to understand what i mean
[13:21] <Ximal> ok ?
[13:21] <flo> ok
[13:26] <atlfalcons866> will my drive start to become fragmented with 30% free space
[13:27] <heekee> quakenet.
[13:27] <atlfalcons866> will my drive start to become fragmented with 30% free space
[13:28] <Ximal> flo : you should see the word FILE .. on volum control.. do you not ?
[13:28] <brobostigon> a linux drive doesnt fragment
[13:28] <Ximal> and then the word CHANGE devices..
[13:28] <flo> yes i made it
[13:28] <flo> but it don´t say something
[13:28] <Ximal> Well.. It wll say something like Intel ICH6 ( Alsa)
[13:28] <Ximal> what does your say ?
[13:29] <flo> yo i can see Audigy ZS 2[SB0350] alsa mixer
[13:29] <flo> but it doesen pup ups anything
[13:29] <Ximal> ok
[13:29] <Ximal> hmm
[13:29] <Ximal> if i is noticing your audigy ..

[13:30] <gaoyangbest> ye?
[13:30] <Ximal> what's the terminal command guys.. for configuring your sound card in terminal ?
[13:30] <Ximal> pls
[13:31] <Pici> Ximal: alsamixer? asoundconf?
[13:31] <Ximal> aye .. something that tells your your sound card's status/config
[13:31] <mikubuntu> could anyone please tell me how to convert image from png to jpeg with gimp?

[13:39] <Witch1> ankur, you mean how to switch off your ethernet NIC?
[13:40] <brobostigon> ankur, only users that can use sudo can open the net config, so you can restrict which users can use it, by choosing which users have access to sudo.
[13:40] <ankur> no

[13:45] <Noya> i think im doing something wrong... perhaps you could help me
[13:45] <chazco> Hi... sometimes when i start Ubuntu my USB keyboard wont work - if i move it to another USB port (on a seperate board) it'll start working... ideas?
[13:46] <ger_3D> Toshiba U300, is anyone using that laptop with ubuntu?
[13:46] <Noya> i created a file using dd (dd of=foo bs=1G seek=48 count=0)

[13:47] <chazco> Yes, yes... realised i should have done that :D
[13:47] <IanLiu> oh
[13:47] <IanLiu> thanks
[13:47] <Ximal> welp
[13:47] <Arsanerit> Why does "dpkg -S /usr/bin/java" give no results, and why does it take many seconds (it should be a simple database query?)
[13:47] <Noya> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/loop0
[13:48] <chazco> On the u200 GRUB doesnt work quite right... the SD reader doesnt work (yet)... otherwise its perfectly well supported
[13:48] <Noya> then after 100Mb it tells me that no more size is left
[13:48] <Ximal> time to go to the bathroom and then take out the trash etc..
[13:48] <Noya> but the file should be around 50gb

[13:48] <Noya> anyone has an idea whats going wrong?
[13:48] <Arsanerit> $ type -p java -> "/usr/bin/java" - I would like to find out who owns the package, but "dpkg -S /usr/bin/java" says "dpkg: /usr/bin/java not found." - How do I find out who owns /usr/bin/java?
[13:48] <Noya> (theres enough space on my harddisk)
[13:49] <chazco> So... any ideas with the keyboard?
[13:49] <ger_3D> chazco: and compiz-fusion works on that graphics card
[13:49] <Cap_J_L_Picard> Arsanerit: because it is a symlink set up depending on what java vm package you installed (might have multiple) and not to one package itself.
[13:49] <chazco> All the stange graphics that are included in Gusty work fine, so i guess so
[13:49] <geirha> Arsanerit: none of the java packages put the java executable in /usr/bin, they put them in /usr/lib/jvm/..., update-java-alternatives creates symlinks for /usr/bin/java
[13:50] <Arsanerit> I see. So then how do I find out where the jdk is installed, what my jdk root is?
[13:50] <ger_3D> chazco: good to hear, thinking of buying that one
[13:50] <geirha> Arsanerit: dpkg -S java should be more helpful
[13:50] <chazco> According to dmesg the keyboard is setup... just doesnt appear to work (not on the u200, on my desktop)
[13:50] <chazco> ger_3D - I think the u300 is similar to the u200, and the u200 is _very_ well supported in Linux for a laptop :)
[13:50] <Cap_J_L_Picard> chazco: paste?
[13:50] <geirha> Arsanerit: and, ls -l /usr/bin/java probably links to /etc/alternatives/java, and ls -l /etc/alternatives/java should link to the actual binary
[13:51] <Arsanerit> geirha: That gives in fact 6829 results;
[13:51] <Arsanerit> geirha: ok
[13:51] <chazco> Trying to paste... it doesnt like it
[13:51] <ger_3D> chazco: what wireless do you have on the u200?
[13:51] <Arsanerit> geirha: Actually: "dpkg: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java not found."
[13:51] <chazco> Not sure... some Intel thing
[13:52] <ger_3D> and that works fine?
[13:52] <Lunz> pike_,http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46090/
[13:52] <chazco> Cap_J_L_Picard: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46091/
[13:53] <brobostigon> good afternoon
[13:53] <chazco> ger_3D: seems to so far... even the built in bluetooth works fine
[13:53] <geirha> Arsanerit: try dpkg -S java | grep /java$
[13:53] <chazco> Afaik the only thing on the u200 with problems is the built in SD (xd and so on also) reader
[13:53] <ger_3D> chazco: grat thats the one i'm thinking of buying
[13:53] <mikubuntu> http://www.flickr.com/photos/14483391@N03/2070702491/ .... we just installed ubuntu on my friends machine, and he boots up, then goes along a little while, until his screen does this (see photo link)... can anyone venture a guess as to the problem?
[13:53] <Arsanerit> geirha: Ok, I found some.
[13:53] <geirha> Arsanerit: /usr/lib/java-sun-6 is yet a symlink to /usr/lib/java-sun-6-specific_version
[13:54] <chazco> The u200 (theres a few)?
[13:54] <Arsanerit> I see
[13:54] <chazco> Battery life rocks under Ubuntu on it also :D
[13:54] <Ximal> anyone know if with ekiga you can use it like a normal phone line ?
[13:54] <ger_3D> chazco: the U300
[13:54] <Arsanerit> can I tell dpkg to follow symlinks?
[13:54] <Ximal> where people can call you ?
[13:54] <chazco> Think its pretty similar, good luck :)
[13:55] <Lunz> pike,did you view it?
[13:55] <ger_3D> chazco: that one
[13:55] <jrib> Arsanerit: what do you mean exactly?
[13:55] <ger_3D> chazco: http://www.komplett.no/k/ki.aspx?sku=337738&view=detailed#ProductTabs
[13:55] <chazco> From what i can see on there most of that is the same
[13:55] <Arsanerit> jrib: I mean that it tries to resolve what package owns the actual file rather than just the path that I happen to use to refer to the file.
[13:56] <geirha> Arsanerit: I doubt it
[13:56] <|Kamen|> not really tech support, but can someone recomend me a good telnet client for connecting to a bbs? one that supports zmodem transfers and ansi and such?
[13:56] <ger_3D> chazco: great, I would like to avoid having to hack on that for a week to get it working
[13:56] <Arsanerit> ok
[13:56] <jrib> Arsanerit: use: dpkg -S $(readling -f /path/to/some/symlink)
[13:57] <eyemean> no worries, i found out wat main problem wa, my home folder had only 44k space left, hahaha
[13:57] <jrib> Arsanerit: use: dpkg -S $(readlink -f /path/to/some/symlink)
[13:57] <shriphani> !python > shriphani
[13:57] <Arsanerit> jrib: right
[13:57] <shriphani> can someone tell me what the deafult version of python in gutsy is ?
[13:58] <shriphani> default ^
[13:58] <jrib> !info python | shriphani
[13:58] <ubotu> shriphani: python: An interactive high-level object-oriented language (default version). In component main, is important. Version 2.5.1-1ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 137 kB, installed size 600 kB
[13:58] <Arsanerit> How do I find if there exists a ubuntu package providing a certain java package (sqlitejdbc)?
[13:58] <jrib> Arsanerit: use apt-file or search online at packages.ubuntu.com
[13:59] <TiagoK> irc.irchighway.net
[13:59] <tuna> when a fullscreen app crashes, mouse gets stuck. how can it be fixed?
[14:00] <Arsanerit> ok
[14:00] <jrib> tuna: try ctrl-alt-f1 and kill the app from there or try ctrl-alt-backspace to restart X
[14:00] <Arsanerit> Seems there is no java sqlite package
[14:01] <chazco> Any ideas on the keyboard?
[14:01] <jrib> !please > chazco (read the private message from ubotu)
[14:01] <tuna> jrib: no need for that. you can kill the app, then start a new fullscreen app and quit it properly, then the mouse works again. I think there has to be a key combination for just unfreezing the mouse
[14:01] <tuna> if there isn't I'm gonna make one
[14:02] <|Kamen|> unfreezing the mouse? can the mouse driver be reinitialized?
[14:02] <tuna> kamen. i think that is too drastic
[14:02] <Lunz_> pike_,did you view the pastebin?
[14:03] <tuna> it's all just x, it doesn't think it needs to listen for mouse when a fullscreen app is doing it
[14:03] <tuna> a program that just tells x it's ok to do mouse is enough
[14:04] <|Kamen|> ah
[14:04] <mikubuntu> http://www.flickr.com/photos/14483391@N03/2070702491/ .... we just installed ubuntu on my friends machine, and he boots up, then goes along a little while, until his screen does this (see photo link)... can anyone venture a guess as to the problem?
[14:04] <|Kamen|> does anyone know a good telnet program for connecting to a bss? one that supports ansi and zmodem?
[14:05] <Junkie_> Hey, I dualbooted windows after i had an ubuntu install, but it seems my grub installation was tainted
[14:05] <Junkie_> I can't boot into linux
[14:05] <Junkie_> and I can't get into a livecd
[14:05] <thor> Kamen: you might look at minicom. I used to use it when I was running via modem
[14:05] <Junkie_> Any suggestions on what to do?
[14:06] <Lunz_> can someone help me with my grub file,it doesn't boot on my xp. here is the link at pastebin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46090/
[14:06] <|Kamen|> thor: does minicom suppor telnet?
[14:06] <tonyyarusso> I have a video in Ogg Theora format, and would like to strip out just the audio portion to use separately.  How could I go about doing that?
[14:07] <tonyyarusso> !grub | Junkie_

[14:07] <Arsanerit> How do I install java packages on ubuntu? I have a .jar-file, but where do I put it?
[14:07] <thor> Kamen: not sure...like I said I haven;t used it in a while. I always turnoff telinet and use ssh instead...and it offers sshcp and sshfs
[14:07] <ubuntu_> Hi all.
[14:07] <Sharpie> Arsanerit, /usr/share/java
[14:07] <Junkie_> tonyyarusso: appreciated
[14:07] <Junkie_> thanks
[14:07] <Arsanerit> Sharpie: thanks
[14:08] <ubuntu_> I'm trying to install Ubuntu next to Windows. My harddisk is 80GB capacity and Windows is using something near 40 or 50. How do i install Ubuntu next to Windows? when trying myself i get an error.
[14:08] <jrib> Arsanerit: probably should use /usr/local somewhere so the package manager does not mess with it
[14:08] <|Kamen|> thor: I'll check it out, but I know not the first thing of ssh. the bbs in question is a majorbbs running telnet
[14:08] <insllvn> can i read or write from a NTFS partition using a 7.10 LiveCD?
[14:08] <darrell3457> Newbee needs install instructions for Gnomesword-2.3.1.tar.gz
[14:08] <geirha> ubuntu_: what's the error?
[14:08] <thor> Kamen: I am installing minicom as we speak...will check to see if it supports telnet
[14:09] <tonyyarusso> ubuntu_: Try doing disk cleanup, defragmentation, and chkdisk in Windows before attempting anything.
[14:09] <geirha> insllvn: yes
[14:09] <tonyyarusso> insllvn: yes.

[14:09] <tonyyarusso> darrell3457: Why are you trying to compile something that's in the repositories?
[14:09] <ubuntu_> geirha: hold on, let me try again
[14:09] <|Kamen|> thor: cool, I went wandering through synaptic and found Qterm. looks promising as well
[14:09] <Arsanerit> oh
[14:09] <jrib> Arsanerit: no idea about java
[14:09] <Arsanerit> ok
[14:09] <ubuntu_> tonyyarusso: It just did a chkdsk. And it went well. What option should i select in the alternate install CD partitioner?
[14:09] <Arsanerit> Sharpie: Do you know? Do I need to recompile a search path or so? The application still says "package org.sqlite does not exist"
[14:10] <froglet> !medibuntu
[14:10] <ubotu> medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[14:10] <oj> can anyone help explain to me why my pc sits idle for a good 5-7 seconds if i want to open my home folder, any installed application, or and media ?
[14:10] <tonyyarusso> ubuntu_: I believe it's called something like "Resize sda1 and use freed space"
[14:10] <froglet> is medibuntu semi-official, or is it a hack like automatix?
[14:10] <darrell3457> I have downloaded 2.3.1 currently installed 2.2.0 on 7.04
[14:10] <bofh8O> #join #fluxbuntu
[14:11] <froglet> oj: does top say anything useful while it's sitting idle?
[14:11] <thor> Kamen: at first look it seems minicom is limited to serial ports...don't see a way to point it to a network device
[14:11] <tonyyarusso> froglet: It's recommended in the documentation at least.  You take responsibility for the legal implications, but it should be safe, since you're just adding things through normal means, rather than hackjob scripts.
[14:11] <jane_> hi  since my update to gutsy i lost my consoles ctrl alt f1 till6 just gives me a blinking cursor not an loginshell - ctrl alt f7 takes me back to gnome as usual then
[14:11] <froglet> tonyyarusso: ok, cool
[14:12] <thor> Kamen: looks like Qterm might be a better choice
[14:12] <tonyyarusso> jane_: I'll link you to the bug - one sec
[14:12] <oj> froglet: what is top?
[14:12] <pike_> oj: open a terminal and run 'top' then keep this terminal open itll tell you process cpu usage
[14:12] <Junkie_> tonyyarusso: the main problem here is i can't get into a livecd

[14:16] <Mouldy> in other news; hey all. Why does cd-ing to the right directory then doing "wine gta-sa.exe" works fine, but doing  wine "/media/E/Program Files/Games/San andreas/GTA San Andreas/gta_sa.exe" doesn't?
[14:16] <jrib> Mouldy: what happens when you try?
[14:17] <|Kamen|> ish. what kind of prick would botflood a help channel
[14:17] <dahitokiri> Mouldy, maybe cuz of PWD settings?
[14:17] <Lunz> PriceChild,http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46090/
[14:17] <Arelis> tonyyarusso: "an error has happened while writing to the storage devices. Aborting."
[14:17] <tonyyarusso> Mouldy: Probably because of the spaces in the filename, which need escaping with \
[14:17] <Mortice> Mouldy: it's probably because the working path needs to be the directory in which gta-sa.exe is found
[14:17] <thor> Mouldy:: you need to escape spaces in the filename path....San\ Andreas
[14:17] <tonyyarusso> Arelis: odd.  I'm not really sure.
[14:17] <dahitokiri> no, the " " would take care of the spaces
[14:17] <Mortice> Mouldy: yea, or it could be spaces. lol, sorry
[14:18] <dahitokiri> you only need to escape when you aren't quoting
[14:18] <Mouldy> jrib, it looks like wine is trying to start it, but it crashes out because some sort of sound error. But it'll do it fine if I first cd to the dir and then run it with wine
[14:18] <|Kamen|> thor: if you didnt see my ealier message in the spam, check out package modemu
[14:18] <Mortice> Mouldy: working directory then.
[14:18] <Mouldy> thor, I put "" around the whole path so that the spaces wouldn't need escaping?

[14:18] <DrSmall> Greetings, I have a very quick question.
[14:18] <LjL> Arelis, a little attack. sorry for the inconvenience, but we had to restrict the channel to registered users only, that's why you couldn't talk.
[14:18] <Mortice> probably trying to access the sounds on a relative path, eg "sounds/blah.mp3" and not finding them because you're not in the dir it expects.
[14:18] <Mouldy> Mortice, wouldn't it just start from root though as the path starts with a /?
[14:18] <jane_> tonyyarusso, thank you
[14:18] <LjL> !register > Arelis    (Arelis, see the private message from Ubotu) i suggest you do this
[14:19] <thor> Mouldy: I have had problems doing that on menu entries and such
[14:19] <dahitokiri> y'know what sucks? gentoo has less users than ubuntu now, but their doscs for various things to do on linux is still much better
[14:19] <Mouldy> thor, That's what I'm trying to do :)
[14:19] <Arelis> LjL: already did?>
[14:19] <Arelis> did.*
[14:19] <genii> Bah. Need to swap machines but that k-line has the other messy. BRB
[14:19] <DrSmall> How can I take a screenshot with icewm. Or rather, is there some screenshot program that I can install from the repository ?
[14:19] <tonyyarusso> Arelis: I haven't run into that particular error before, so I'm a tad stumped (and just woke up, so...)  Sorry.
[14:19] <Mouldy> I'll try escaping each of the spaces rather than just having the path in quotes
[14:19] <rpj8> DrSmall: lookup Scrot
[14:19] <Lunz> i have booting problem on my xp paste my menu list at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46090/
[14:19] <thor> Mouldy: I use xfce so that might have something to do with it...but especially with shortcuts and menus quotes sometimes caused me problems
[14:19] <DrSmall> thanks
[14:19] <jrib> DrSmall: 'import' from imagemagick
[14:20] <Arelis> tonyyarusso: Alright. no problem :). Yeah, it's in dutch, so i had to translate it.. but it came down to something like that
[14:20] <Arelis> LjL: Oh alright. I saw a ctcp something-exec.exe everywhere
[14:20] <Arelis> LjL: Means other people have been infected
[14:21] <Mouldy> thor, just tried escaping the spaces, did exactly what it did before. wine crashes out with an error about alsa
[14:21] <thor> Mouldy: that sounds like a problem with alsa...did you run winecfg when you installed wine?
[14:22] <geirha> Mouldy: it's not uncommon for windows progs to expect that you run the prog from the directory it's located in
[14:22] <Mouldy> yeah, wine will run the game 100% fine with no errors if I cd to the directory that the directory first though
[14:22] <geirha> Mouldy: you'll just have to cd into the dir and run it like that... cd /path/to/game;wine the.exe;cd -
[14:22] <LjL> Arelis, hardly any ubuntu users though
[14:22] <Mouldy> geirha, Ok, I'll give that a go thanks
[14:23] <Mouldy> geirha, "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal" apparently
[14:24] <nixnoob> my new keyboard shortcut for my panel menu is not working the old shortcut is still in effect anyone know why?
[14:24] <smultron> when i use the rsync --exclude 'something' it works the first time, but after that, it never works. any ideas?
