[12:00] <NickGarvey> sethk: so stupid..
[12:00] <moparfan90> hello everyone
[12:00] <sethk> NickGarvey, boot a rescue cd
[12:00] <aaron_> are there any problems with setting up unrealircd with ubuntu
[12:00] <mwe> NickGarvey: just add init=/bin/sh at the end of the line and change ro to rw then type passwd when you are booted to set the password
[12:00] <NickGarvey> mwe: ah ok, thank you
[12:00] <jadaz87> NickGarvey do you know how to run php from commandline? it should be: php bot.php right??
[12:00] <mwe> NickGarvey: or /bin/bash
[12:00] <moparfan90> whats that command thing in this IRC channel to make the bot tell you about how to install NVIDIA drivers?
[12:00] <mwe> NickGarvey: init=/bin/bash
[12:00] <sethk> mwe, I'd expect a /bin/sh link
[12:01] <moparfan90> o wait nevermind
[12:01] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, /etc/init.d/networking restart worked , i can now see eth0 in ifconfig eth0, but when i ifconfig eth0 up i get this error, i tried ifconfig eth0 down then up and same error, SIOCSIFFLAGS: Device or resource busy. then i do an dhclient eth0 and it comes back with send_packet network down.
[12:01] <sethk> mwe, so either should work
[12:01] <morose> nickrud: right, the idea was to avoid babysitting it at first..it's going to be enough work installing and configuring all the services
[12:01] <bolsh> No PPC flash answers?
[12:01] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: You should not have to perform "ifconfigh eth0 up".  Once you have a working server, you will spend an astonishingly small amount of time babysitting.
[12:03] <morose> i just booted the kernel and installing a ton of crap i don't want...like nano
[12:03] <Lynoure> 01:00, time for me to give up for today.
[12:03] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: I've had no good experience with ifconfig up/down, it just seems to set a flag and not the affect the actual network. All you should have to do is start the network and get an IP using dhclient, and then you're set to go.
[12:03] <morose> nickrud: yeah..that's what i am hoping for...everytime the gentoo box gets updated, my sh!t breaks to my complete and utter dismay
[12:04] <nickrud> morose, the specific example you mention, nano, is a required package. A design decision, a simple usable editor that always works.
[12:04] <morose> nickrud: vive vi :>
[12:04] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, ok, i restarted it again ran dhclient eth0 and it is still down, what happened is my 10 month old daughter was sitting on my lap  when i was in the terminal and she typed something into it and since then i lost it, i dont even know what she typed in heh :)
[12:04] <morose> vi++
[12:04] <kbrooks> morose: flamebait!
[12:04] <morose> vim++
[12:04] <nickrud> morose, so add it :)
[12:04] <nickrud> !editorwars
[12:04] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, nickrud
[12:04] <morose> nickrud: i will
[12:04] <nickrud> !editor wars
[12:04] <ubotu> nickrud: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:04] <morose> kbrooks: pfft :)
[12:05] <nickrud> heh. Gone :)
[12:05] <kbrooks> !editor war
[12:05] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, kbrooks
[12:05] <kbrooks> !editor
[12:05] <ubotu> [editor]  ed, vim, nano, emacs, gedit, kate, bluefish, gvim, pida, eclipse, nvu, quanta
[12:05] <Jowi> where is mousepad in that list?
[12:06] <HaxoR91> how do i make totem work with any media files?
[12:06] <HaxoR91> i cant run anything on it
[12:06] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: she probably typed something like "aboogabaa" which is a secret command to turn off the network. On a more serious note, sometimes restarting the network won't do it. I've had this problem too, I've tried most of what I could think of, and yet I ended up rebooting the computer to get it to work again. So my advice to you is to reboot the computer when you can't get the network to functino properly again using /etc/init.d/network start.
[12:06] <wpr> hello! another problem with ubuntu dapperdrake 6.. trying to add a norwegian keymap using Keyboard preferences, but I get the error "Error activating XXB configuration", and it refers to errors in libxklavier library, and the X server... any ideas?
[12:06] <morose> wtf!@#!@#!@
[12:06] <rustlerharv> HaxoR91: what version ubuntu are you rinnig
[12:07] <HaxoR91> 5.10
[12:07] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, ok i will give that a go, i have rebooted it before but i will try again,
[12:07] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: type "history" in the console and you will see the last 500 commands typed into it.
[12:07] <nickrud> wpr, you will probably get more traction in #ubuntu+1
[12:07] <morose> nickrud: i'm hating this already....in the stupid gui install, there was never a place to set up a root passwd....!@#!@#!
[12:07] <ciplogic> Hello... how do I change the drive name to Ubuntu?  I have as name:
[12:07] <ciplogic> +
[12:07] <ciplogic>  // End;
[12:07] <nickrud> morose, heh. welcome to sudo
[12:07] <gnomefreak> morose: ubuntu doesnt have a root password
[12:07] <HaxoR91> rustlerharv: how do i fix it?
[12:07] <gnomefreak> it does just disabled
[12:07] <rustlerharv> HaxoR91: there are packges in synaptic you can install idk what they are for breezy
[12:08] <nickrud> morose, sudo gives you so much more control over adminstrative issues than a root account
[12:08] <linxeh> I'm having a problem with my SD/MMC card reader - [4490680.628000]  generic_make_request: Trying to access nonexistent block-device mmcblk0 (0). I have tried mknod to create the device (even though there was a device there already) and it still isn't working. Any ideas?
[12:08] <Jowi> HaxoR91: gstreamer0.8-plugins is what you want. that will install them all
[12:08] <morose> nickrud gnomefreak: euhhhh and if you type su, you are prompted for a password, what then?
[12:08] <ciplogic> I use ubuntu dapper :)
[12:08] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, fc ?
[12:08] <nickrud> morose, sudo -i
[12:08] <Jowi> HaxoR91: you also have gstreamer0.8-plugins-multiverse
[12:08] <nickrud> morose, that gives you the exact same situation as su -
[12:08] <morose> nickrud: oyeeeee  em em *runs around in circles*
[12:08] <navidjoon> I downloaded firefox <IP_ADDRESS> and I want to have it running by typing firefox in the Alt+F2 dialog box. What should I do?
[12:09] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: that just opens vim, a text-editor
[12:09] <nickrud> morose, lol, you amuse me :)
[12:09] <gnomefreak> navidjoon: if you follow the guide it should just work
[12:09] <ciplogic> How/where I change the drive names to GNOME?
[12:09] <seamus-laptop> ciplogic: clarification?
[12:09] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: By the way, are you using wlan ?
[12:09] <navidjoon> It works
[12:09] <gnomefreak> should meaning it did here
[12:09] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, no just lan
[12:09] <ciplogic> seamus-laptop: one drive gets a strange name: a multiline drive name
[12:09] <gnomefreak> navidjoon: type firefox in alt+f2
[12:09] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: k, reboot and let me know if it works
[12:09] <ciplogic> The all others are normal (drive size)
[12:09] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, k
[12:10] <navidjoon> The problem is if I type firefox in the Alt+F2 dialog in brings on the older version since it's in the path
[12:10] <seamus-laptop> ciplogic: where are you seeing this?
[12:10] <navidjoon> Now I want to have the new firefox running
[12:10] <ciplogic> In places... anywhere :)
[12:10] <gnomefreak> navidjoon: if you ran the divert command it should use firefox <IP_ADDRESS> for default
[12:10] <ciplogic> The name is: + \n //End;
[12:10] <ciplogic> For that drive
[12:10] <dabaR> Remove old one from the path, link to new one in the path.
[12:11] <navidjoon> divert command? What is it?
[12:11] <gnomefreak> the instructions are there for that i think there is a divert command and an ls command
[12:11] <gnomefreak> navidjoon: its on the wiki
[12:11] <morose> nickrud: mkay so any secret switches needed for apt-get?  i'm about to install apache2
[12:11] <ciplogic> My question is how to define at least even after a format...
[12:11] <seamus-laptop> ciplogic: what drive?
[12:11] <dabaR> morose: --super-secret-special
[12:11] <ciplogic> Was an old C letter from WIndows
[12:11] <morose> dabaR: seeee..that's what i thought :/
[12:12] <ciplogic> I removed Windows and I format as ReiserFS
[12:12] <ciplogic> Using System->Admin->Disks
[12:12] <nickrud> morose, secret switches? (and I am going to strongly recommend aptitude)
[12:13] <ciplogic> seamus-laptop: anyway: if it needs another format to another FS please to say... I backup data... and I will do everything to not be multiline drive
[12:13] <ciplogic> As name
[12:13] <navidjoon> Found it gnomefreak, thanks for help
[12:13] <ciplogic> Is really annoying that bug :(
[12:14] <NickGarvey> I win!
[12:14] <seamus-laptop> ciplogic: have you tried cfdisk?
[12:14] <ciplogic> nope
[12:14] <rustlerharv> does anyone know how i can fix having to run gaim as root
[12:14] <ciplogic> but cfdisk is a fdisk
[12:14] <ciplogic> I don't know if knows to format a drive
[12:14] <redguy> ciplogic: it doesn't
[12:14] <nickrud> NickGarvey, heh. You been a loser too ? :)
[12:15] <gnomefreak> navidjoon: your welcome
[12:15] <wobble> What package do I need to be able to see shares on a networked Windows computer?
[12:15] <NickGarvey> nickrud: heh I locked my root password
[12:15] <seamus-laptop> ciplogic: you may need to repartition / reformat that drive
[12:15] <wobble> Samba?
[12:15] <NickGarvey> wobble: yessir, /msg ubotu samba for me
[12:15] <navidjoon> wobble: samba
[12:15] <NickGarvey> wobble: s/me/more/
[12:15] <nickrud> NickGarvey, why did you ever unlock it in the first place ;)
[12:15] <wobble> Okay, thankyou guys
[12:16] <seamus-laptop> ciplogic: resier4 is still fairly new, untested, and ubggy
[12:16] <ciplogic> seamus-laptop: in which FS?
[12:16] <NickGarvey> nickrud: suse 10.0
[12:16] <Ali> hi all
[12:16] <ciplogic> I used reiser
[12:16] <ciplogic> Not reiser4
[12:16] <Imperio59> stupid quick and dirty question: if i did "sudo rm -r /" would that delete every file on my system?
[12:16] <seamus-laptop> ah
[12:16] <ciplogic> Imperio59: yes
[12:16] <Imperio59> hmm'k :)
[12:16] <rustlerharv> Imperio59: i thing its -rf but ya you can
[12:16] <ciplogic> Don't do on your system
[12:16] <Imperio59> couldn't be assed to check, thanks :p
[12:16] <redguy> Imperio59: most of them, yes
[12:16] <gnomefreak> Imperio59: i doubt it because you didnt give it enough parameters but feel free to try :(
[12:16] <Imperio59> yea that's why i ask
[12:16] <mlehrer> cat /dev/random > /dev/hda
[12:16] <Ali> how can i make a pppd connection on startup ?
[12:16] <ciplogic> you may chheck after a chroot command
[12:17] <Imperio59> I don't really feel like trying
[12:17] <Imperio59> :)
[12:17] <mlehrer> just kidding there
[12:17] <redguy> mlehrer: not funny
[12:17] <ciplogic> seamus-laptop: I shoud reformat?
[12:17] <Ali> anyone ?
[12:17] <ciplogic> Ali:
[12:17] <funky> hi
[12:18] <ciplogic> Preferences-
[12:18] <ciplogic> .Sessionm
[12:18] <nickrud> Imperio59, it's a learning experience, if you have the partition to examine afterwards :)
[12:18] <funky> when is finally planned the next release ?
[12:18] <Ali> ciplogic: startup, not login
[12:18] <nickrud> !dapper
[12:18] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[12:18] <gnomefreak> Imperio59: yes it will remove all directories and their contents
[12:18] <funky> nickrud: thx
[12:18] <gnomefreak> man rm will give you the info
[12:19] <morose> nickrud: heh...i got it fixed up now so root can log in anyways..none of this sudo -i stuff
[12:19] <Ali> anyone ?
[12:19] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, its booting now , it gets to configuring network interfaces and says ok, then goes to waiting for network to come up, pauses for a while says ok, then when it gets to syncing time it fails the time sync. maybe it is a hardware problem and just a coincidence when my daughter went ape in terminal, when i ifconfig eth0 i get HWaddr FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
[12:19] <rustlerharv> is there a way i can change it so i dont have to be root to run progs
[12:19] <ciplogic> Any idea how may I setup the drive names in Ubuntu/GNOME?
[12:20] <linxeh> apt-get nightmare - how can I fix this error which stops me installing/removing anything?   dpkg-divert: mismatch on divert-to when removing `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/share/fglrx/diversions/libGL.so.1.2 by xorg-driver-fglrx' found `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa by xorg-driver-fglrx'
[12:20] <nickrud> morose, there are a lot of useable security models. But, please use the sudo one on this channel
[12:20] <morose> are you ppl using openssh?
[12:20] <morose> nickrud: emmm oki
[12:20] <Ali> morose: yes
[12:20] <fiendskull9> hey guys
[12:20] <endersshadow> ciplogic: are you talking like C:\ in windows?
[12:20] <nickrud> morose, it'll make it easier for the next guy :)
[12:20] <fiendskull9> what basic language would you reccomend for programming a simple multi-user chat? server-client
[12:20] <svu_> why oh why mt-daapd is not in ubuntu repository?
[12:21] <morose> nickrud: understood....only two ppl have access to the actual physical box, here, so its no huge deal to login as root
[12:21] <Ali> fiendskull9: python or ruby
[12:21] <NickGarvey> yeah python is very easy
[12:21] <morose> nickrud: i mean, in my case, but i understand the desire for consistency on the channel
[12:21] <ciplogic> endersshadow: I have an ex-drive of C:\ of windows
[12:21] <nickrud> morose, yeah :)
[12:21] <ciplogic> endersshadow: and I format it
[12:21] <fiendskull9> Ali, ok, i was thinking python :), im waiting for a guy to send me a TCPcommunications class for REALbasic.
[12:22] <alekz> hi, im going to buy a new pc thinking on a AMD 64 3200 FX, how good is ubuntu 64 ??
[12:22] <endersshadow> ciplogic: all right, linux deals with drives and the file structure a lot differently than windows does
[12:22] <Ali> fiendskull9: REALBasic is closed source
[12:22] <biovore> I am running kubuntu 64bit here.. works fine
[12:22] <ciplogic> endersshadow: as reiserfs and at the end I sow a strange name as was plus a new line //End;
[12:22] <Ali> fiendskull9: and you won't get enough support from community
[12:22] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: You daughter should by no reason be able to have done anything to your system. That it fails time sync is because it cannot find ntp.ubuntu.com. Have you tried "ping <IP_ADDRESS>". You can also check "lshw -C network" to find informatino about your hardware specifics. Make sure it's eth0 and the fields are accurate.
[12:22] <fiendskull9> ok
[12:22] <Ali> fiendskull9: python and asynchat module
[12:22] <rustlerharv> how differnt is kbuntu
[12:22] <Ali> fiendskull9: or ruby
[12:22] <ciplogic> biovore: my question is how do I setup that to change a name to drives
[12:23] <nickrud> rustlerharv, the desktop will be totally different, but the guts are all the same
[12:23] <ciplogic> endersshadow: At least the coresponding to /media/C
[12:23] <biovore> ciplogic: setup what for what?
[12:23] <rustlerharv> how differnt is kde
[12:23] <endersshadow> ciplogic: what does your /etc/fstab look like?
[12:23] <NickGarvey> rustlerharv: try it and find out ;)
[12:23] <ciplogic> is normal
[12:23] <rustlerharv> ive only run ubuntu
[12:23] <jadaz87> does anyone know how i set an username and password  for mysql?
[12:23] <nickrud> kde is evil, gnome is heaven :)
[12:23] <gnomefreak> rustlerharv: its different
[12:23] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, k
[12:23] <NickGarvey> xfce > all
[12:23] <rustlerharv> i like gnome
[12:23] <linxeh> rustlerharv, : I have ubuntu with the kubuntu desktop added, so I can switch between both
[12:23] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: That you said, about ifconfig tells you your MAC address is ff:ff:ff... That's a good sign to that your system doesn't recognise your networking card properly. You should have a uniqe mac-address.
[12:24] <ciplogic> like that: /dev/hda1       /media/C        reiserfs defaults      0        0
[12:24] <gnomefreak> rustlerharv: it makes me think of windows desktop :(
[12:24] <rustlerharv> eww
[12:24] <gnomefreak> lol
[12:24] <endersshadow> ciplogic: all right, so it's mounting to /media/C just fine or do you just want to change the name in media?
[12:24] <NickGarvey> how do you make an ubotu factoid refer to another one?
[12:24] <nickrud> rustlerharv, gnomefreak is exaggerating, it's not that bad
[12:24] <gnomefreak> rustlerharv: it has a K in lower left hand corner (your start menu)
[12:24] <biovore> jadaz87: use mysql admin to set the password for root.. then use the grant command to setup users
[12:25] <ciplogic> endersshadow: name is ok... mounting too\
[12:25] <jadaz87> biovore what is the terminal command for mysqladmin?
[12:25] <gnomefreak> nickrud: no? than you have your "launchers" to the right of the K
[12:25] <Ali> anyone willing to help me with pppd ?
[12:25] <ciplogic> endersshadow: but in GNOME the name is really strange
[12:25] <gnomefreak> and the apps dock at bottom
[12:25] <biovore> jadaz87: see mysql.com support documents
[12:25] <ciplogic> endersshadow: and takes 2 lines as name :-S
[12:25] <rustlerharv> red hat is kde isnt it
[12:25] <N2DIY> Hi, how to I get email with evolution, the send/receive button is ghosted out.
[12:25] <nickrud> gnomefreak, er, I'm thinking kde 2.2 or so, it can't have gotten truly evil, only relatively :)
[12:25] <linxeh> is there a way to manipulate the package installation list by hand?
[12:25] <gnomefreak> that reminds me way too much of windows lol
[12:25] <jshriver> Greetings
[12:25] <endersshadow> ciplogic: okay, give me just a second
[12:25] <ciplogic> Sure
[12:25] <redguy> jadaz87: also, you might want to check /usr/share/doc/mysql
[12:26] <jshriver> Is it possible to convert from Debian stable to ubuntu?
[12:26] <A[D] minS> Nighty all
[12:26] <rustlerharv> i tinhk my schools computers use kde
[12:26] <ciplogic> jshiver: install first the kernel, reboot
[12:26] <nickrud> jshriver, no, you should do a fresh install for debian
[12:26] <jshriver> w/o FFR
[12:26] <ciplogic> jshiver: then after reboot to me works
[12:26] <gnomefreak> jshriver: its not recommended things have a 98% chance of breaking badly
[12:26] <biovore> jadaz87: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/grant.html
[12:26] <linxeh> ie I want to remove a package that is installed from the lists, but keep the package installed (well, I want to remove the package, but I cant, so I figure if I can overwrite it I might be able to uninstall)
[12:26] <linxeh> or should I do a fresh install?
[12:26] <jshriver> I've been a debian user for years.. and starting to get tired of the lack off applications... some of the ppl in my lug are big ubuntu fans.. so thought I'd give it a shot
[12:26] <nickrud> linxeh, eh, more info?
[12:27] <gnomefreak> linxeh: what package and what errors when you try to remove it
[12:27] <nickrud> jshriver, unstable?
[12:27] <linxeh> apt-get nightmare - how can I fix this error which stops me installing/removing anything?   dpkg-divert: mismatch on divert-to when removing `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/share/fglrx/diversions/libGL.so.1.2 by xorg-driver-fglrx' found `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa by xorg-driver-fglrx'
[12:27] <biovore> linxeh: is that package a dependancy for another package
[12:27] <jshriver> nickrud, na stable.. and another machine is running testing
[12:27] <linxeh> Removing xorg-driver-fglrx ...
[12:27] <linxeh> on that package
[12:27] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, ping <IP_ADDRESS> works, lshw -C network comes back with, network dissabled, though it recognises the n/w card
[12:27] <biovore> linxeh: I have noticed alot of people having problems with this fglrx stuff
[12:27] <jshriver> but some of the apps Iwant are in testing, but I dont want to upgrade to testing just to get a couple applications
[12:27] <borgista> Anybody else having Dapper MPlayer-plugin woes too?
[12:28] <jshriver> ubuntu is debian like right? I can still use apt-get/apt-cache dpkg?
[12:28] <Bilange> for the record, I also had this kind of problem-- dont remember what I did to get rid of the nag
[12:28] <redguy> Ali: the initscript check if file /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot exists on boot
[12:28] <nickrud> jshriver, the tools are identical
[12:28] <gnomefreak> jshriver: yes
[12:28] <NickGarvey> borgista: most likely in #ubuntu+1 would be the best place to check
[12:28] <linxeh> biovore: yeah,  its because there arent any real suitable packages yet - I want to drop it and stick with standard I guess
[12:28] <biovore> borgista: I built mplayer from source, newest cvs works alot better then that package in multiverse
[12:28] <borgista> Thanks
[12:28] <linxeh> although Xgl is so nice to use :o
[12:28] <gnomefreak> jshriver: the packages are _not_ the same hence the reason things will break on cross platform upgrade
[12:28] <Beakster> hi, im thinking about installing Ubuntu in a Athlon 800 512MB to use for mythtv.  DOes that soud like a good idea?  or better to stick with debian?
[12:28] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: network disabled ? That's odd. I'm not really sure how to fix that. I'm guessing you can't ping a local server or your router?
[12:28] <NickGarvey> xgl is beautiful..
[12:29] <nickrud> xgl is october away (I hope)
[12:29] <NickGarvey> mian1ak: ifconfig eth0 shows stuff though?
[12:29] <redguy> Ali: if it's set as executable it will be run, otherwise pppd call provided is issued
[12:29] <biovore> nickrud: I had it working in dapper just a little while ago
[12:29] <rustlerharv> Beakster: i cant get mythtv to work right but im and idiot so
[12:29] <fiveiron> whats a good php editor?
[12:29] <NickGarvey> fiveiron: vi
[12:29] <redguy> Ali: s/issued/executed/
[12:29] <NickGarvey> ;)
[12:29] <dabaR> eclipse, vi, gedit, bluefish
[12:29] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, nope cant ping local NickGarvey yes
[12:29] <fiveiron> NickGarvey: heheh
[12:29] <redguy> fiveiron: vim, emacs, kate
[12:30] <fiveiron> sorry let me clarify
[12:30] <NickGarvey> mianiak: do you have an IP?
[12:30] <ciplogic> endersshadow any result?:
[12:30] <NickGarvey> mianiak: like 192.168.*.*?
[12:30] <Bilange> fiveiron: bluefish was a favourite of mine, although eclipse might be a good idea if you have a fast machine too
[12:30] <endersshadow> ciplogic: yeah, i'm looking for the program to rename reiserfs partitions
[12:30] <fiveiron> i'm looking for a php code beautifier which IDEALLY also has the capability from within the application to open and save files on a remote ftp server
[12:30] <mianiak> NickGarvey, nope, ifconfig eth0 would show ip yes?
[12:31] <N2DIY> how do I get Evolution to fetch my mail, the send/receive button is ghosted out.
[12:31] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: But it won't show mac-address (but ff:ff..) ?
[12:31] <ciplogic> endershadow: I think that is only a GNOME issue, and to remane it in GConf or somelike that
[12:31] <NickGarvey> mianiak: I don't understand what you just said? could you pastebin ifconfig eth0?
[12:31] <ciplogic> endersshadow: for my knowledge reiser FS haven't names
[12:31] <nickrud> biovore, so have I, but I hope for better tools, like better window management
[12:31] <mianiak> ENE|Toxic, yeh ff:ff....
[12:31] <biovore> nickrud: don't we all :-P
[12:31] <ENE|Toxic> mian1ak: Line NickGarvey said, pastebin :)

[12:34] <gnomefreak> also anjuta is good
[12:34] <ENE|Toxic> NickGarvey: ooo now I get it haha :)
[12:34] <fiendskull9> it does python?
[12:34] <gnomefreak> but iirc eric will only do python
[12:34] <gnomefreak> fiendskull9: yes anjuta does python
[12:35] <ciplogic> endersshadow: the name is asigned in Volume name
[12:35] <fiendskull9> gnomefreak, oh, i thought it only did c and cpp, i have it.
[12:35] <ciplogic> When I choose property on the drive
[12:35] <endersshadow> ciplogic: there's a bug filed about it in launchpad
[12:35] <endersshadow> ciplogic: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/30867
[12:35] <haasteem> bilange: ahhh, ok... i was having some font trouble
[12:36] <ciplogic> endersshadow: Nope... it is good... is not like bug
[12:36] <haasteem> so i guess it is in fact more gtk related
[12:36] <nickrud> ciplogic, rierserfstune --label  ?
[12:36] <ciplogic> nickrud
[12:36] <ciplogic> Nickrud: I try right now
[12:36] <nickrud> ciplogic, man rieserfstune for the details
[12:37] <haasteem> does gedit use gtk?
[12:37] <nickrud> haasteem, of course it does, it's gnome
[12:37] <biovore> haasteem: I think it dose
[12:37] <redguy> haasteem: the g suggests so
[12:37] <nicolas__> ok, i just upgraded from sarge to breezy, everything worked almost without problems, except for the last step, which is apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[12:37] <haasteem> right
[12:37] <haasteem> stupid question
[12:37] <nicolas__> broken deps with gaim, synaptic, python-apt etc
[12:37] <rustlerharv> what is gtk
[12:37] <nickrud> haasteem, no, not a stupid question, just a brain fart :)
[12:37] <redguy> nicolas__: erm
[12:37] <haasteem> but how come then that it does not listen to my setting in the gtkrc-2.0 file?
[12:38] <nicolas__> redguy: what?
[12:38] <redguy> nicolas__: updated from sarge to breezy? since when sarge was an ubuntu release?
[12:38] <ciplogic> I cannot umount partition :P
[12:38] <nicolas__> redguy: it is not
[12:39] <gnomefreak> redguy: sarge was never a ubuntu release
[12:39] <redguy> nicolas__: you should say: I broke my sarge install when I was tryng to change my distro to ubuntu
[12:39] <nicolas__> redguy: well, someone else did it on ubuntuforums, and so i did
[12:39] <redguy> !debian
[12:39] <ubotu> Debian is "the rock upon which Ubuntu is founded"; see http://www.debian.org Thank You Ian and DEBra Murdock! 1994 Vers. 0.9.  Debian and Ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship/
[12:39] <nicolas__> everything is working well
[12:39] <gnomefreak> redguy: sarge nad ubuntu dont use same packages there is no doubt it will break
[12:40] <nicolas__> redguy: i dont think you have anything to teach me
[12:40] <nickrud> nicolas__, were you the guy that said he was going from sarge to breezy when I came in today?
[12:40] <nicolas__> nickrud: yes
[12:40] <juztin> if i use an alternative wm, for instance blackbox, will the icon that notifies you of available updates still pop up when updates are available?
[12:40] <NickGarvey> nicolas__: good luck
[12:40] <endersshadow> ciplogic: the more i look into it, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to change volume labels, but there are people working on it...i'm sorry
[12:40] <nicolas__> NickGarvey: its done
[12:40] <redguy> nicolas__: hmm, I thing dpkg's ubuntu factoid is more clear on that
[12:40] <nickrud> nicolas__, I commented cuz I know it's a difficult road, you will have serious issues.
[12:40] <toby_> justin: no
[12:40] <haasteem> nickrud: it looks like the rest e..g x-chat, gimp, etc. run ok, but not gedit, the update manager.. it is rather strange
[12:40] <Bilange> abotu xfce4: does apt-get install xfce as the default window manager when installing packages, or some tuneup is required?
[12:41] <biovore> nicolas__: I done a sarge to brezzy dist-upgrade as well
[12:41] <nicolas__> nickrud: not too much
[12:41] <juztin> bummer :/
[12:41] <nicolas__> just a couple dpkg segfaults ;P
[12:41] <toby_> you can do an apt-get something or other as a cron job
[12:41] <|austin|> quick question: I have a 5 gig partition which just became free.  is this big enough for a ubuntu install with gnome?
[12:41] <redguy> nicolas__: I doubt that you will learn anything usefull other than debian != ubuntu
[12:41] <kbrooks> |austin|: ubuntu requires min 1 gb
[12:42] <|austin|> awesome
[12:42] <toby_> fluxbox is nice
[12:42] <|austin|> does that include gnome?
[12:42] <_jason> |austin|: it's big enough with and without gnome (~1.8 is min for gnome included)
[12:42] <Bilange> austin: yes, 2 and more gb is required to install it, after the installation 1.5 gig is really used
[12:42] <nicolas__> redguy: almost
[12:42] <nickrud> haasteem, I've fought that, and gave up. I stick with the tools for themes, and maybe alter a theme slightly here and there
[12:42] <rustlerharv> i tinhk i used 4 for everything
[12:42] <nicolas__> biovore: had any problem with installing ubuntu-desktop ?
[12:42] <redguy> nicolas__: but maybe you could educate me: what's the point in such an "upgrade" ?
[12:42] <biovore> nicolas__: I didn't have any problems with it here
[12:42] <haasteem> nickrud: ok. i do not really want to use gnome-font properties, i am using blackbox (without a desktop manager)... and if i did run gnome-font-properties other unecessary gnome stuff is loaded...
[12:43] <ciplogic> reisertune works... but no effect :)
[12:43] <nickrud> nicolas__, 'just a dpkg segfault *cough*(
[12:43] <nicolas__> redguy: prevent data loss while preventing data backup when changing distro
[12:43] <rustlerharv> |austin|:  right now im using 3.4 gigs
[12:43] <nicolas__> and also
[12:43] <endersshadow> sorry :(
[12:43] <nickrud> haasteem, I've never used blackbox, so I don't have much to offer
[12:43] <nicolas__> i saved almost 30 minute
[12:44] <slavik> I got dapper working :D
[12:44] <slavik> no wifi yet
[12:44] <ciplogic> The name change from C in + even I choose as label: test
[12:45] <netgeek60> Is the Dapper beta worth taking for a spin? <relatively stable?>
[12:45] <redguy> nicolas__: there are at least several way better ways of acheiveing the goal you described
[12:45] <rustlerharv>  netgeek60 yes
[12:45] <rustlerharv> i havent had any problems
[12:45] <nickrud> netgeek60, if you're comfortable with the tools provided to fix problems, yes. Otherwise I'd suggest waiting.
[12:46] <nicolas__> redguy: did i told you it went almost perfectly ?
[12:46] <Sanne> haasteem, there's lightweight the gtk-theme-switch utility to control some of the gnome/gtk appearance when you haven't installed a full Gnome.
[12:46] <nicolas__> in less than 20 min
[12:46] <gn0m3> hi
[12:46] <gn0m3> can anyone help me with the gaim messenger
[12:46] <nicolas__> !upgrade
[12:46] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades .
[12:46] <netgeek60> Cool... i don't mind fixing problems as long as there are only a few now & then.
[12:47] <rustlerharv> gn0m3: whats up
[12:47] <gn0m3> how do u add pictures to your profile?
[12:47] <gn0m3> it gives u the option
[12:47] <rustlerharv> i tinhk thats your buddy icon
[12:47] <redguy> nicolas__: "broken deps with gaim, synaptic, python-apt etc" <-- you call this "almost perfect"
[12:47] <gn0m3> but is there a specific format or a specific size?
[12:47] <ciplogic> gn0m3: you have in account property
[12:47] <gn0m3> i know but it did not allow me
[12:47] <matth-w> nickrud, hey did you ever find anything about the cd-r?
[12:47] <gn0m3> i added the pic but nothing came up
[12:47] <redguy> nicolas__: I call it "broken system"
[12:48] <redguy> nicolas__: a amtter of perspective
[12:48] <kbrooks> OK
[12:48] <kbrooks> i have this idea
[12:48] <_Dez> how do i mount a usb drive in terminal
[12:48] <rustlerharv> what messenger are you using
[12:48] <kbrooks> i think
[12:48] <haasteem> Sanne: i know that one, it has no effect unfortunately...
[12:48] <kbrooks> ...
[12:48] <rustlerharv> aim msn etc
[12:48] <nickrud> matth-w, your issue scrolled out of my xchat window, what was it again?
[12:49] <gn0m3> im using aim
[12:49] <gn0m3> but its gaim here
[12:49] <haasteem> Sanne: by the way, i do have a full gnome installed
[12:49] <codecaine> anybody using gaim2?
[12:49] <Milk_> ello
[12:49] <matth-w> Oh, I need mp3 plugin's to burn with serpentine or gnomebaker
[12:49] <moparfan90> hi everyone/......... how do i give write access for everyone for    /usr/games
[12:49] <moparfan90> ?
[12:49] <rustlerharv> codecaine: i am
[12:49] <nickrud> matth-w, ah
[12:49] <codecaine> is it real nice does it have webcam?
[12:49] <rustlerharv> my only problem is i have to run it as root
[12:49] <moparfan90> .. in a terminal
[12:49] <Sanne> haasteem, it hasn't? It should... oh, if you have gnome, then you could run the gnome theme manager from the command line.
[12:49] <Milk_> I'm having issues getting any software to recognise my joystick.. any sugestions on where I can edit a config file or otherwise get this setup correctly?
[12:49] <__nev__> moparfan90: chmod 1777 /usr/games
[12:49] <rustlerharv> no web cam
[12:49] <biovore> gaim2 is in beta 3
[12:49] <moparfan90> ok
[12:49] <moparfan90> thanks
[12:49] <sb_> salve
[12:49] <redguy> moparfan90: what for?
[12:49] <diomedes> so whats with ubuntu install not asking for a root password? and assuming i want to use dhcp?
[12:50] <codecaine> oh nothing really new
[12:50] <nickrud> matth-w, I answered up on that one thinking it was ripping, not writing. I've never written a music cd in my life :)
[12:50] <sb_> oh merda
[12:50] <nxvl> hi
[12:50] <sb_> hi
[12:50] <redguy> !tell diomedes about root
[12:50] <sb_> i have Dapper Drake
[12:50] <Milk_> diomedes, thats the default, its meant to make install easy and safe
[12:50] <haasteem> Sanne: yeah.... gnome theme manager does not invoke other gnome stuff?
[12:50] <sb_> what i use to see a divx?
[12:50] <sethk> diomedes, it asks for a root password in expert mode
[12:50] <matth-w> nickrud, never burned a audio cd?
[12:50] <_Dez> how do i mount a usb drive in terminal
[12:50] <biovore> sb_: xine or mplayer will do it
[12:50] <sethk> diomedes, and the dhcp assumption isn't unreasonable for a default
[12:50] <redguy> diomedes: if you want to have more controll on what is actually done during the install do an expert install
[12:50] <sb_> but i haven't a codec
[12:51] <rustlerharv> sb_: totem will do it
[12:51] <ciplogic> nickrud: I have write with a soft crayon and say the content of it ;)
[12:51] <biovore> sb_: google for divx4linux
[12:51] <sb_> ok
[12:51] <biovore> or divx5linux
[12:51] <redguy> !tell sb_ about restricted
[12:51] <diomedes> grr, linux is becoming windows
[12:51] <rustlerharv> you nmeed to install the good bad and ugly pcks
[12:51] <nickrud> matth-w, only once, I just put a bunch of mp3's on a data cd, which my dvd player recognized. That was for fun, and never repeaed
[12:51] <ciplogic> nickrud: do you know how to change the volume in GNOME?
[12:51] <Milk_> diomedes, why do you say that?
[12:51] <matth-w> okay
[12:51] <diomedes> os aren't meant to think for you
[12:51] <Sanne> haasteem, well, it will load the libraries it needs to run, as would for example gimp or firefox or openoffice, if you run them.
[12:51] <nxvl> i want to install ubuntu but i haven't a CD-drive or a Floppy
[12:51] <nickrud> ciplogic, no, I'd look at that bug report someone pointed you at
[12:51] <s|k> !dapper
[12:51] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[12:52] <Milk_> diomedes, so defaulting to static IP and defaulting asking for a default root is not thinking for you?
[12:52] <redguy> diomedes: sorry, I must have missed the expert mode in the Windows setup
[12:52] <nxvl> is there any way to install it throu the net?
[12:52] <ciplogic> nickrud: the bug say that: should display the volume info but displays the names of the drive
[12:52] <sethk> diomedes, not really.  you want expert mode behavior, install in expert mode
[12:52] <ciplogic> To me display correctly the volume info
[12:52] <steel> what were the commands to see who's in the FTP server? for proftpd?
[12:52] <redguy> diomedes: if you like to think for the os try slackware
[12:52] <__nev__> steel: ftpwho
[12:53] <steel> thanks
[12:53] <ciplogic> And that bug doesn't apply to me... the bad part is that the drive name is really wrong
[12:53] <ciplogic> My question is how to change it
[12:53] <codecaine> anybody have file sharing problems with windows on ubuntu using samba?
[12:53] <ciplogic> I have nothing with name, only my question is how to change ;)
[12:53] <diomedes> milk did i say default to anything? no i said ask, ie static or dhcp
[12:53] <redguy> diomedes: aor lfs even
[12:53] <Milk_> codecaine, its all about setup, what problem are you having?
[12:53] <rustlerharv> doesnt nautilis do file sharing
[12:53] <nickrud> ciplogic, if using reiserfstune --label doesn't show the correct name in gnome but will on the command line, that's a bug to be filed
[12:53] <redguy> codecaine: no, what is your problem?
[12:53] <haasteem> Sanne: ok, i will give it a try, thanks
[12:54] <matth-w> Well is there someone that might help me, I'm needing plugin's for my serpentine to burn a audio-cd from mp3's
[12:54] <Sanne> haasteem, you're welcome
[12:54] <nickrud> ciplogic, I haven't used rieserfs under ubuntu so I'm not up on the latest
[12:54] <diomedes> redguy this install is for my wife, i use solaris.. its just sad that the defaults for linux are now dumbed down
[12:54] <ciplogic> nickrud: changing to xfs may fix that things?
[12:54] <mianiak> NickGarvey, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12906
[12:54] <sethk> diomedes, that's not true.  the defaults for ubuntu are dumbed down
[12:54] <codecaine> I click on share folder under system then choose a external hd I want to share give it an name as a windows file server but when I try to open it up in windows theres no folder showing
[12:54] <nickrud> ciplogic, what's wrong with ext3?
[12:54] <sethk> diomedes, use slackware
[12:54] <diomedes> are native debian and slackware the only old school distros
[12:55] <sethk> diomedes, no, but of the majors possibly
[12:55] <jmg> diomedes no there are others that predate and have died out
[12:55] <sethk> diomedes, there are a slew of distros now
[12:55] <jmg> yggrdasil
[12:55] <ciplogic> nickrud: I heard that may remain corrupt the transaction log on a power break
[12:55] <NickGarvey> mianiak: whoa is that messed up
[12:55] <ciplogic> nickrud: reiserfs haven't that problem
[12:55] <mianiak> heh
[12:55] <codecaine> ?
[12:55] <nickrud> ciplogic, heh. I have totally useless power here, and never had that issue.
[12:55] <sethk> ciplogic, reiserfs has many many other problems, though
[12:55] <NickGarvey> mianiak: show that to someone smarter than me I have no idea at all..
[12:55] <spoons> I'm having trouble installing Blender 3D 2.41, I could only get blender 2.37 from the repositories, so I found a copy that was supposed to be packed for Ubuntu. when I try to install it with this command "dpkg -i blender_2.41-1ubuntu4_i386.deb" I get dependancy errors.
[12:55] <spoons>  blender: Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.0.2) but 1:4.0.1-4ubuntu9 is to be installed           Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 4.0.2-4) but 4.0.1-4ubuntu9 is to be installed
[12:55] <diomedes> a slew isn't really a good thing, they all just try to be dumber then the other so the pc mag reader uses their version
[12:55] <sethk> ciplogic, ext3 is really quite stable, and doesn't claim to be totally bullet proof
[12:56] <redguy> diomedes: Note that ubuntu is mostly a desktop distro and dhcp is what most desktop users want. The install should be simple to attract more users from the Windows world, don't you agree?
[12:56] <NickGarvey> spoons: then get the dependancies :)
[12:56] <mianiak> NickGarvey, ok , i post it int he forum, thanx for your help
[12:56] <diomedes> what happened to unix being selective about its friends
[12:56] <Milk_> diomedes, whats the difference, use expert or fix it afterwards
[12:56] <nickrud> ciplogic, I rebooted on power failure in probably 10 times in a month before buying a ups, and never lost data
[12:56] <spoons> NickGarvey how do I do that?
[12:56] <NickGarvey> mianiak: :)
[12:56] <sethk> diomedes, you have the behavior you want.  why bitch because it isn't the default?
[12:56] <Milk_> codecaine, you need to setup samaba users for the user
[12:56] <NickGarvey> spoons: apt-get what it says, libgcc1 or smotheing
[12:56] <kingspawn> diomedes: chill out, install Arch Linux from archlinux.org
[12:56] <spoons> NickGarvey that just gives me the same errors.
[12:56] <codecaine> for windows user name
[12:57] <NickGarvey> spoons: exact same? like it depends on itself?
[12:57] <Milk_> codecaine, yes
[12:57] <spoons> Nick, it gives me the blender error
[12:57] <Sanne> spoons, I always use the blender from blender.org and install it manually in /usr/local/<whereveryouwant>.
[12:58] <spoons> Sanne do you not need these dependancies that way?
[12:58] <zanth> good day
[12:58] <Milk_> diomedes, if your looking for a completely configurable, highly selctive distro, try standard debian or slackware, but don't fault ubuntu for being EXACTLY what it advertises
[12:58] <ciplogic> nickrud: I backup the partition and I will format as EXT3 :)
[12:58] <redguy> diomedes: so you say that linux and/or unix should be only for "the chosen ones", right? Or do you expect that every computer user knows about IP configuration?
[12:58] <noaxispoint> I have looked online for this; is there a way to make the gdm route the X session to a remote X server already started?  The other machine would have a static IP address.
[12:58] <ciplogic> nickrud: I believe you... I was only affraid of that side...
[12:58] <zanth> I was wondering if there was anything like kxdocker for gnome?
[12:58] <sethk> redguy, not only that, but it has a mode that does exactly what he wants.    That's not reasonable at all.
[12:59] <Sanne> spoons, no, I don't have those problems on Breezy. But there's one: you would need to get blender for python2.3 and also install python2.3 from apt (if you want to use that), because breezy's python2.4 isn't compatible with blender/python2.3
[12:59] <kingspawn> the os wars are getting old. no need.
[12:59] <_jim_> hey guys , can anyone help me ? ubuntu cant see my other Fat32 partitions
[12:59] <NickGarvey> I'd use !wars but I had to delete it (cough)
[12:59] <sethk> _jim_, why do you think that?
[12:59] <diomedes> redguy if they dont know about ip config then i highly doubt *nix is the os for them
[12:59] <kingspawn> NickGarvey: heh
[12:59] <nickrud> ms1.2!!
[12:59] <_jim_> i cant see my other partitions
[01:00] <rustlerharv> _jim_: is it your fstab
[01:00] <Milk_> diomedes, your a bit of a windows user then?
[01:00] <_jim_> whats fstab ?
[01:00] <sethk> _jim_, did the partitions exist when you installed ubuntu?
[01:00] <kingspawn> Milk_: let it go, man
[01:00] <codecaine> user under security? in the smb.conf?
[01:00] <_jim_> no seth
[01:00] <Milk_> kingspawn, but but but
[01:00] <_jim_> they was RAW
[01:00] <sethk> _jim_, that's the reason
[01:00] <_jim_> so
[01:00] <sethk> _jim_, you'll have to add them manually now
[01:00] <_jim_> is there a reason to fix that ?
[01:00] <redguy> diomedes: right, let that herd stick in the Windows world, so that we, the True Computer Users can have the power of unix just to ourselves
[01:00] <Milk_> codecaine, in the smb.conf... well... kinda
[01:00] <nalioth> !offtopic
[01:00] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[01:00] <_jim_> ah yeh :D
[01:00] <nickrud> _jim_, it's actually the file /etc/fstab , it's the definition of where disk partitions are mounted in the unified file system
[01:00] <rustlerharv> you need to add lines to fstab
[01:00] <nicolas__> ok i fixed all those broken packages, due to my usage of debian backports, everything would have go really well, from a fresh sarge to breezy, this is nothing risky
[01:01] <sethk> _jim_, a reason?  the reason is that you want to see the partitions
[01:01] <Sanne> spoons, I hope I wasn't too confusing...
[01:01] <Milk_> codecaine, check out the samba docs for adding a user
[01:01] <Milk_> codecaine, let me see if I can find a link
[01:01] <_jim_> sorry mistake
[01:01] <sethk> _jim_, it is easy to do, you simply have to edit /etc/fstab, as several have started to tell you
[01:01] <_jim_> so
[01:01] <_jim_> i open fstab in etc ?
[01:01] <baconbacon> !mount
[01:01] <ubotu> it has been said that mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[01:01] <sethk> _jim_, yes, with an editor
[01:01] <rustlerharv> sudo gedit
[01:01] <nickrud> _jim_, read the ubotu link that baconbacon so kindly provided
[01:01] <sethk> _jim_, rustlerharv 's was for you
[01:02] <diomedes> redguy no its horses for courses,  look at the lashing lindows/linspire got when if came out
[01:02] <_jim_> wow
[01:02] <Milk_> codecaine, http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2002-May/043748.html
[01:02] <nickrud> !mountwindows
[01:02] <ubotu> Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter to make your windows or mac partitions mount automatically.  If you wish to set it up yourself by hand, read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[01:02] <_jim_> so much support in here lol thanks alot guys !
[01:02] <_jim_> ubuntu rox :D
[01:02] <nickrud> _jim_, check out the ubotu one just above as well
[01:02] <nalioth> diomedes: redguy: distro discussion can take place happily in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:02] <diomedes> sorry if i feel someone should know something about an os that can be used to be harmful to others if not looked after correctly
[01:02] <_jim_> alright
[01:02] <redguy> sorry nalioth
[01:02] <baconbacon> i glance once in a while to type !something and im praised for it :)
[01:03] <amphi> diomedes: dos can be used to be harmful to others ;)
[01:04] <dylonium> hey
[01:04] <rustlerharv> _jim_: the little life peserve has alot of this stuff in it
[01:04] <ciplogic> amphi: MS distros may be on #ubuntu-offtopic :P
[01:04] <amphi> ciplogic: ack
[01:05] <_jim_> hey guys
[01:05] <_jim_> i dont know the hda0 / 1 things
[01:05] <dylonium> Does anyone know how to boot on GRUB if its on an external HDD?
[01:05] <_jim_> and i cant access System/Disks
[01:05] <dylonium> it messed up my whole computer
[01:05] <baconbacon> hda is first hard disk, hdb first slave, hdc second master..
[01:05] <sethk> dylonium, your BIOS has to support it
[01:05] <Milk_> dylonium, thats dependent on your bios
[01:05] <sethk> dylonium, and most don't
[01:06] <dylonium> it does
[01:06] <codecaine> so you have to set a password for a user :/
[01:06] <dylonium> huh?
[01:06] <rustlerharv> _jim_: hda is your master hdd 1 is the first partition on it
[01:06] <Milk_> codecaine, you have to have the same user on both systems with the same smbpassword
[01:06] <amphi> _jim_: hda is the first disk on the first controller, hda1 the first parttion on that disk, hda2 the second, etc.
[01:06] <dylonium> i already screwed my comp. up, im running on a live version
[01:06] <dylonium> how can i get back on windows
[01:06] <sethk> dylonium, you can install grub on the MBR of the internal disk and have it boot from the external
[01:06] <baconbacon> hda1-2-3-4 are 1st,2nd,... primary partitions
[01:06] <dylonium> when i boot, it immidiately gets a gruub error
[01:06] <sethk> dylonium, what's the error?
[01:06] <rustlerharv> i love how 20 ppl answer the same ?
[01:06] <dylonium> hold on one sec
[01:06] <baconbacon> hda5-6-7-8-... are logical partitions
[01:06] <kingspawn> dylonium: have you still got the original partition?
[01:07] <NickGarvey> how do you make cat continue to dump a file?  like a log for example
[01:07] <kingspawn> dylonium: windows, that is
[01:07] <Milk_> rustlerharv, its called good service
[01:07] <sethk> rustlerharv, you want one right answer and 19 wrong ones?  :)
[01:07] <kingspawn> NickGarvey: doesnt tail have some kind of option?
[01:07] <amphi> NickGarvey: tail -f perhaps
[01:07] <Sanne> NickGarvey, I don't use cat, I use: tail -f <filename>
[01:07] <dylonium> yes i do
[01:07] <kingspawn> thats it
[01:07] <rustlerharv> at least you nkow its right
[01:07] <dylonium> i do have the original pertition
[01:07] <Milk_> rustlerharv, yep
[01:07] <dylonium> par*
[01:07] <NickGarvey> yeah I was thinking of tail, just wondering if cat had it too, alright though thank you
[01:07] <Milk_> codecaine, did that help?
[01:08] <dylonium> but i heard i have to use the recover disk in order to recover the MBR
[01:08] <sethk> dylonium, if you mean you have the original MBR, you can restore it
[01:08] <dylonium> but i lost it, and it doesnt work
[01:08] <codecaine> kinda but on windows I do use passwords for file sharing
[01:08] <sethk> dylonium, no, not true
[01:08] <dylonium> i do ahve it
[01:08] <dylonium> but how?
[01:08] <codecaine> I have a password to login to windows
[01:08] <sethk> dylonium, dd if=filename of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1
[01:08] <dylonium> Grub Loading stage 1.5.
[01:08] <dylonium> Error 21 ----thats the error btw
[01:08] <Milk_> codecaine, good, but you need the same user and password on linux
[01:08] <baconbacon> _jim_ you can use fdisk /dev/hda (command line) or disk manager in system menu to check partitions
[01:08] <dylonium> dylonium, dd if=filename of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1 *whats that?*
[01:09] <kingspawn> dylonium: you can boot the windows cd and use fixmbr utility in rescue mode, if you just need to get back your windows mbr
[01:09] <Milk_> you know.. I asked a question when i came in. and I have no idea if it got answered
[01:09] <Milk_> hahaah
[01:09] <sethk> dylonium, that's how to restore the mbr
[01:09] <sethk> dylonium, which is what you asked
[01:09] <Milk_> Anyone here using a Joystick and maybe.. gl-117
[01:09] <_jim_> i mounted
[01:09] <dylonium> so how do i do it
[01:09] <_jim_> should i reboot now ?
[01:09] <dylonium> where do i type what u jsut gave me?
[01:09] <dylonium> that *dylonium, dd if=filename of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1*
[01:09] <sethk> _jim_, no
[01:09] <rustlerharv> _jim_: yes
[01:09] <_jim_> lol
[01:09] <sethk> _jim_, rebooting for what reason?
[01:09] <_jim_> to see them
[01:10] <_jim_> i got no confirmation
[01:10] <sethk> _jim_, just do mount -a
[01:10] <rustlerharv> you can reboot or mount manually
[01:10] <_jim_> and dont see them
[01:10] <dylonium> hello?
[01:10] <phoul> Excuse me
[01:10] <dylonium> where do i type *dd if=filename of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1*
[01:10] <NickGarvey> phoul: excused

[01:10] <dylonium> thats my problem
[01:10] <nickrud> sethk, what's filename?
[01:10] <NickGarvey> !tell phoul about dapper

[01:11] <ciplogic> nickrud: I have clean up the partition, I format it as ext3 and no success :(
[01:11] <phoul> Umm could somone just check that list out tho
[01:11] <rustlerharv> _jim_: i reboot
[01:11] <sethk> nickrud, I'm not sure, what'a file?

[01:11] <dylonium> hello?
[01:11] <dylonium> where can i get a command prompt to type dd if=filename of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1
[01:12] <baconbacon> diomedes: ubuntu with KDE is kubuntu, check #kubuntu
[01:12] <sethk> _jim_, I'm not sure what you mean by a confirmation, but probably not, no
[01:12] <nickrud> ciplogic, what exactly are you trying to do? Last we talked, I thought you simply wanted to label your reiser partition
[01:12] <_jim_> alright
[01:12] <sethk> _jim_, you can do  ls /media/windows and you'll see files
[01:12] <rustlerharv> _jim_: you should get an error or see the drie were you told it to go
[01:12] <phoul> anyone here who can see it
[01:12] <dylonium> seth???
[01:12] <baconbacon> diomedes: but if you want kde and already have ubuntu installed, you can install the package kubuntu-desktop
[01:12] <dylonium> can you see my typing?
[01:12] <baconbacon> no
[01:12] <blind> nope.
[01:13] <kingspawn> diomedes: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, i believe.
[01:13] <dylonium> all joking aside
[01:13] <nickrud> ciplogic, ?
[01:13] <dylonium> someone help me out please
[01:13] <ciplogic> nickrud: the partition is /dev/hda1 mounted to /media/C an ex-FAT32 partition and as name is seen in GNOME as "+ \n //End; "
[01:13] <dylonium> where can i get a command prompt
[01:13] <dylonium> to type *dd if=filename of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1*
[01:13] <NickGarvey> dylonium: I see your typing, applictions > terminal
[01:13] <sethk> dylonium, sorry, I have to handle work stuff at the moment
[01:13] <ciplogic> nickrud: And is anoying at least because use 2 lines in places, and everywhere
[01:13] <NickGarvey> dylonium: wait.. of
[01:13] <blind> applications >accessories terminal
[01:13] <rustlerharv> dylonium: apps
[01:13] <dylonium> huh?
[01:13] <NickGarvey> haha sorry, no gui
[01:13] <dylonium> so just go to terminakl and paste dd if=filename of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1
[01:13] <deepak> hello
[01:14] <dylonium> and it should make my MBR recover?
[01:14] <nickrud> ciplogic, ok. You have a partition that's /hda1 , it's a fat32, and it has a totally useless label name. You want to change it to something useful ?
[01:14] <blind> yes dylonium
[01:14] <dylonium> THANKS SO MUCH
[01:14] <ciplogic> nickrud: was fat32
[01:14] <dylonium> ill be back in shortly
[01:14] <nickrud> ciplogic, was fat32, is now?
[01:14] <dylonium> can i set this irc chat as a favorite?
[01:14] <ciplogic> nickrud: now ext3 :P
[01:14] <ciplogic> nickrud: was until some moments ReiserFS
[01:15] <_jim_> k ill go rebooting now
[01:15] <_jim_> brb
[01:15] <dylonium> ill be back possibly
[01:15] <dylonium> pray for me-- hah
[01:15] <ciplogic> nickrud: every case mounted well, I know how to edit fstab,etc. only has a bad label :((
[01:15] <nickrud> ciplogic, if it's an ext3 partition, do:   sudo e2label /dev/hda1 <name you want>
[01:16] <ciplogic> should I logoff from gnome?
[01:16] <linxeh> I'm having a problem with my SD/MMC card reader - [4490680.628000]  generic_make_request: Trying to access nonexistent block-device mmcblk0 (0). I have tried mknod to create the device (even though there was a device there already) and it still isn't working. Any ideas?
[01:16] <ciplogic> nickrud: no effect :(
[01:16] <ciplogic> I umount and mount again :(
[01:16] <nickrud> ciplogic, no, you can do that from a terminal from inside gnome
[01:17] <ciplogic> I've done that
[01:17] <biovore> http://packages.ubuntu.com/  good for looking up package depencies
[01:17] <Seewai> is it possible to change the xorg bit depth on the fly?
[01:17] <Seewai> does anyone know
[01:17] <dylonium> it didnt work people
[01:17] <dylonium> *dd if=filename of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1*
[01:18] <ciplogic> seewai: nope... xrandr can change refresh and resolution
[01:18] <dylonium> it said, dd: opening `filename': No such file or directory
[01:18] <blind> what error did it give you, dylonium ?
[01:18] <jarle> How do I install a .deb file that I have already downloaded to my HD? (Opera)
[01:18] <Seewai> but it's not possible to change the bit depth?
[01:18] <rustlerharv> Seewai: idk if anything you would have to reboot x
[01:18] <Hobbsee> !tell jarle about deb
[01:18] <Jowi> Seewai: not possible. i can change resolutions though and refresh rate
[01:18] <nickrud> ciplogic that works here
[01:18] <blind> no no, you have to put an actual filename
[01:18] <dylonium> whats that mean?
[01:18] <Seewai> nuts
[01:18] <biovore> Seewai: hit ctrl alt + a few times..  if xorg is setup right you will flip though different modes and res
[01:18] <dylonium> what filename
[01:18] <dylonium> mbr?
[01:18] <kingspawn> dylonium: filename is just the filename of the mbr you said you had saved
[01:18] <dylonium> i dont know the actual directory
[01:18] <nickrud> ciplogic, on my mounted home partition (the things I try for people here :)
[01:18] <ciplogic> nickrud: life is anfair :)
[01:19] <dylonium> anyone know of the mbr extension for windows?
[01:19] <ciplogic> *unfair
[01:19] <Seewai> oh well
[01:19] <dylonium> do you guys get paid to help out?
[01:19] <Hobbsee> no
[01:19] <nickrud> dylonium, I get plenty of razzies, I live on them :)
[01:19] <biovore> no
[01:19] <dylonium> just makes u guys better right?
[01:19] <redguy> no
[01:19] <Seewai> cheers anyways
[01:19] <kingspawn> we get paid in smiles
[01:19] <kingspawn> (/cheese)
[01:19] <dylonium> wait, so anyone know the filename i can try?
[01:20] <blind> dylonium, you have to use the filename of the mbr
[01:20] <redguy> dylonium: did you do a backup of your mbr with dd earlier?
[01:20] <biovore> dylonium: mbr extention?
[01:20] <kingspawn> dylonium: did you specifically do "dd if=/dev/hda of=file bs=512 count=1" at one time?
[01:20] <dylonium> yes
[01:20] <kingspawn> dylonium: what did you call the file?
[01:20] <dylonium> idk about a backup
[01:20] <niocin> hey when i type mkdir /media/partitionname
[01:20] <dylonium> i still have it tho
[01:20] <niocin> it says "access denied
[01:20] <dylonium> its just GRUB tries to override it on the boot
[01:20] <kingspawn> niocin: sudo
[01:20] <blind> sudo, niocin
[01:20] <dylonium> so do you know where i can find this file?
[01:21] <kingspawn> dylonium: grub cant override this one, if youve got it
[01:21] <kingspawn> dylonium: where did you save it? thats the question.
[01:21] <niocin> so type sudo mkdir /media/pat
[01:21] <redguy> niocin: is it by any chance a windows partition?
[01:21] <dylonium> my internal hdd
[01:21] <dylonium> and i partitioned my ex hdd
[01:21] <niocin> yeah redguy
[01:21] <blind> yes niocin
[01:21] <dylonium> and then it tries to load grub, btu its on the ex and it tries to read the internal one
[01:21] <redguy> !tell niocin about ntfs
[01:21] <dylonium> and then my comoputer gets stuck
[01:21] <nickrud> dylonium, people hang out here to help for a lot of reason, but every single one of us does it for one reason: we want your os to work
[01:22] <dylonium> nice
[01:22] <blind> diskmounter for ntfs. can't beat it in ease and quickness......
[01:22] <dylonium> get what im saying?
[01:22] <kingspawn> dylonium: you put the mbr on your external hd?
[01:22] <dylonium> no, its on my internal hdd
[01:22] <redguy> niocin: read the wiki link ubotu sent you
[01:22] <niocin> thank you
[01:22] <redguy> niocin: if it's NTFS then write access is not supported
[01:23] <dylonium> i have to go eaty, ill be back in 5min
[01:23] <ciplogic> nickrud: how do I choose to reconfigure GNOME and reget the all configs?
[01:23] <dylonium> eat*
[01:23] <ciplogic> nickrud: I believe that is a problem of GNOME
[01:23] <dylonium> please stay ehre, give me 10 minutes
[01:23] <dylonium> thanks!
[01:23] <nickrud> ciplogic, you mean, reset your desktop to as if you have just started from scratch?
[01:23] <amphi> niocin: you might want to check out 'captive ntfs'
[01:23] <ciplogic> nickrud: yes
[01:23] <moparfan90> im trying to lunch boot-up manager and i get this error "Failed to run bum as user root:
[01:23] <moparfan90>  Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file"     what do i do??
[01:23] <ciplogic> I use GNOME
[01:24] <ciplogic> and as metapackage: ubuntu-desktop
[01:24] <amphi> ciplogic: shh ;)
[01:24] <nickrud> ciplogic, rm -r .gconf/* .gconfd/* .gnome/* .gnome2/*
[01:24] <_jim_> hey guys
[01:24] <_jim_> i made the dir /media/windows
[01:24] <_jim_> but when im trying to mount first the ntfs
[01:25] <_jim_> it says      mount: special device /dev/hda1 does not exist
[01:25] <ciplogic> I log off and I will relogin
[01:25] <julien> hello
[01:25] <rustlerharv> if its ntfs you need differnt options in fstab
[01:25] <amphi> _jim_: what does ls -l /dev/hda1 show?
[01:26] <codecaine> I have samba installed I don't see smbadduser anywhere
[01:26] <_jim_> root@10:~# ls -l /dev/hda1
[01:26] <_jim_> ls: /dev/hda1: No such file or directory
[01:26] <amphi> _jim_: how did you do that? ;)
[01:26] <rustlerharv> it shoulden if it didnt mount it
[01:27] <_jim_> so , what i should do ?
[01:27] <rustlerharv> _jim_: is hda 1 ntfs or fat
[01:27] <_jim_> ntfs
[01:27] <rustlerharv> did you put the same lines in fstab as the fat
[01:27] <niocin> okay i did the diskmounter thing and it says no available partitions
[01:27] <_jim_> no
[01:27] <_jim_> its different
[01:27] <rustlerharv> what did you put
[01:28] <amphi> _jim_: it seems you lack the file in /dev for some reason
[01:28] <NickGarvey> _jim_: which is bad
[01:28] <niocin> redguy: i type sudo fdisk -l it gives me my 200gb external, like it lists it there, but i cant access it anywehre, or am i just blind?
[01:28] <_jim_> surt
[01:28] <NickGarvey> _jim_: because even if there is nothing there.. /dev/hda10 should still be there
[01:28] <ciplogic> I hate my drive C :)
[01:28] <NickGarvey> wel 9
[01:28] <_jim_> rustlerharv, i typed something different before for fat
[01:28] <kingspawn> niocin: what does the fdisk -l output? pastebin it
[01:29] <NickGarvey> oh wait
[01:29] <NickGarvey> maybe not.
[01:29] <niocin> kingspawn: pastebin?
[01:29] <kingspawn> !pastebin
[01:29] <niocin> kingspawn: oh i didnt that earlier
[01:29] <ubotu> pastebin is probably http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[01:29] <redguy> niocin: sorry, cant help you, got to go
[01:29] <rustlerharv> the option is differnt too
[01:29] <Bog_> is there an ubuntu virtual machine?
[01:30] <rustlerharv> _jim_: i tihnk its umask=002 for ntfs
[01:30] <crimsun> for version 5.10, yes, Bog_.
[01:30] <_jim_> oo
[01:30] <niocin> kingspawn: i mean i did that earlier
[01:30] <Bog_> crim: where would I download it?
[01:30] <crimsun> _jim_: 022.
[01:30] <_jim_> in FAQ it says 0222
[01:30] <rustlerharv> look it up cuz thats off mory
[01:30] <kingspawn> niocin: oh, I didnt know that
[01:30] <crimsun> Bog_: from vmware's Web site
[01:31] <Bog_> crim: I dont mean the player, I mean a pre-installed ubuntu image
[01:31] <_jim_> still the same about special device dont exist
[01:31] <ciplogic> I will remove gtk and I will reinstall metapackage Ubuntu-dekstop and will reconfigure the drives
[01:31] <amphi> _jim_: you can recreate the device file (if you need to) by doing 'cd dev; sudo mknod -m 660 hda1 b 3 1 && sudo chgrp disk hda1'
[01:31] <niocin> kingspawn: are you looking at my pastebin? or what. I'm new to this.
[01:32] <rustlerharv> _jim_: 0222 is right
[01:32] <amphi> _jim_: make that 'cd /dev' above, sorry
[01:32] <_jim_> guys , i tried to mount fat and it saying same thing : mount: special device /dev/hda2 does not exist
[01:32] <amphi> _jim_: note the leading slash
[01:32] <kingspawn> niocin: I dont know where your pastebin is
[01:33] <kingspawn> niocin: I would need the url
[01:33] <_jim_> im in /dev
[01:33] <produkt_> what's libdb-4.2.so and how do I get it?
[01:33] <nickrud> _jim_, sudo fdisk -l will tell you about your available partitions, does hda2 appear?
[01:33] <amphi> _jim_: ok - no hda? files at all?
[01:33] <Sivik> i need some help with some wireless drivers
[01:33] <ciplogic> _jim_ : use sudo fdisk /dev/hda
[01:33] <_jim_> Ooo
[01:33] <niocin> kingspawn: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12903
[01:33] <_jim_> with fdisk -l i see many things
[01:33] <ciplogic> _jim_: if starts means that you have hda
[01:33] <_jim_> non of them is HDA
[01:33] <_jim_> every is SDA
[01:34] <amphi> _jim_: arrgh
[01:34] <ciplogic> _jim_ : pressing P will show the partition list
[01:34] <nickrud> _jim_, ah
[01:34] <kingspawn> niocin: okay, is the 200gb drive the one you want to interact with?
[01:34] <niocin> kingspawn: yeah and i have ubuntu installed on the 30
[01:34] <_jim_> is it bad ?
[01:34] <nickrud> luckily (for me) I know nothing about sda stuff, I get to bow out
[01:35] <ciplogic> _jim_: SDA is for SATA/RAID drives
[01:35] <rustlerharv> ive never heard of sda
[01:35] <ciplogic> in rest works as HDA drives
[01:35] <_jim_> so
[01:35] <kingspawn> niocin: okay. problem is that there are no valid partitions recognized on that disk. what kind of filesystem have you got on it?
[01:35] <amphi> rustlerharv: first scsi device
[01:35] <_jim_> i can mount them too , right ?
[01:35] <Jowi> how do I export display :0 in tightvncserver?
[01:35] <_jim_> i got sata
[01:35] <niocin> kingspawn: its a fat16 i believe
[01:35] <_jim_> so i just change the letter H with S and try ?
[01:36] <niocin> kingspawn: or is that not what your asking haha
[01:36] <ciplogic> _jim_: to mount a /dev/sda1 like vfat you may use that command: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 -fs vfat
[01:36] <kingspawn> niocin: yes, thats what i am asking. if you do sudo cfdisk /dev/hdd, and choose print, what does it output?
[01:37] <ciplogic> you should have created a folder named: /media/sda1
[01:37] <bobbyd> hi
[01:37] <dylonium> im back
[01:37] <NickGarvey> hello
[01:37] <ciplogic> Soon my Linux will quit :)
[01:38] <dylonium> wait, so where is the MBR located for windows?
[01:38] <bobbyd> i want to add: "export PATH=$PATH:$PSPDEV/bin/" every time I log in, where should I put that so every shell I open has that set? .bashrc?
[01:38] <kingspawn> dylonium: I am telling you, this really does depend on where you saved that file
[01:38] <niocin> kingspawn: raw - sectors - table - cancle
[01:38] <kingspawn> bobbyd: /etc/login.defs
[01:38] <dylonium> the default place
[01:38] <dylonium> for windows
[01:38] <bobbyd> kingspawn, thanks
[01:38] <kingspawn> niocin: no info about partitions at all?
[01:38] <dylonium> should it be like C:/WINDOWS/filename
[01:38] <bobbyd> kingspawn, but I just want it for my user, not everyone...
[01:39] <_jim_> do i need to mount my ntfs primary boot sda1 ?
[01:39] <nickrud> dylonium, the mbr is on the very beginning of a device: far more often than not on the first hard drive on the first socket on the mother board
[01:39] <kingspawn> dylonium: there is no default place. the MBR is 512 bytes at the beginning of your disk telling grub/windows where to boot
[01:39] <_jim_> its already in desktop but i cant access it
[01:39] <niocin> kingspawn: yeah like name: hdd1 ---part type : primary---FS type: FAT16
[01:39] <txoinas> wenas gente
[01:39] <txoinas> algun espaol ?
[01:39] <nickrud> !es
[01:39] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[01:39] <kingspawn> niocin: now we're talking
[01:39] <dylonium> how can i fix my problem then?
[01:39] <niocin> kingspawn haha
[01:39] <moparfan90> hello... im running xubuntu and downloaded a theme... how do i extract it?
[01:39] <dylonium> i was told i have to get my recovery disk and go into the recover mode and type: fix mbr
[01:39] <kingspawn> niocin: okay, out of cfdisk, and: sudo mkdir /media/hdd1
[01:40] <Sivik> anyone use the drivers for the bcm43xx wireless cards?
[01:40] <NickGarvey> Sivik: pick me pick me
[01:40] <kingspawn> dylonium: not "fix mbr" but "fixmbr"
[01:40] <NickGarvey> !bcm43xx
[01:40] <ubotu> To use your broadcom or airport extreme card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx for info and firmware.
[01:40] <nickrud> !bcm43xx
[01:40] <NickGarvey> I win
[01:40] <nickrud> heh
[01:40] <dylonium> yes
[01:40] <niocin> kingspawn: okay
[01:40] <txoinas> i try, sudo apt-get install etherboot but not install, how install it
[01:40] <kingspawn> niocin: done that?
[01:40] <niocin> kingspawn: yep
[01:40] <dylonium> but how can i do this in a shorter form?
[01:40] <dylonium> cause i cant get into my CD
[01:40] <dylonium> it needs a pw
[01:40] <dylonium> and i dotn ahve itm, and its not my windows default username
[01:41] <dylonium> and troubleshooting ideas?
[01:41] <linxeh> is there any way I can manually remove an entry from the installed package list ?
[01:41] <kingspawn> niocin: now: sudo mount -t msdos /dev/hdd1 /media/hdd1
[01:41] <Sivik> that url doesn't exsit
[01:41] <niocin> kingspawn: okay, and it didnt say anything after, was it supposed to?
[01:41] <NickGarvey> Sivik: oh that sucks, let me check it
[01:41] <codecaine> I did smbpasswd -a codecaine then enter the password twice same password I use on window and linux and user name but still can't see the shared folder on winxp pro
[01:41] <niocin> kingspawn: OMG IT WORKED
[01:41] <niocin> kingspawn: i love you
[01:41] <nickrud> dylonium, if you were trying to get an mbr that booted linux, you'd probably get lots of help here, for fixing windows ?
[01:41] <niocin> kingspawn: haha
[01:41] <kingspawn> niocin: :)
[01:41] <NickGarvey> Sivik: yes it does..
[01:41] <kingspawn> niocin: lets get married ;)
[01:42] <NickGarvey> Sivik: 1. Using Broadcom Wireless in Ubuntu Breezy 5.10
[01:42] <kingspawn> niocin: great
[01:42] <Sivik> This page does not exist yet. You can create a new empty page, or use one of the page templates. Before creating the page, please check if a similar page already exists.
[01:42] <niocin> kingspawn: OKAY! hha
[01:42] <Sivik> thats what it gave me
[01:42] <dylonium> im so confused
[01:42] <Sivik> Nick: thats what it gave me
[01:42] <NickGarvey> Sivik: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[01:42] <niocin> kingspawn: is there an easier way instead of typeing or coyping out kingspawn: every time?
[01:42] <niocin> kingspawn: haha
[01:42] <dylonium> does anyone know how to troubleshoot a windows admin passwrod?
[01:42] <kingspawn> niocin: Yes there is, you need to add this entry to your /etc/fstab
[01:42] <NickGarvey> !windows
[01:42] <ubotu> For help with microsoft windows, please visit ##windows
[01:42] <nickrud> I thought I heard somewhere that cafuego had done some work on the bcm43xx recently
[01:43] <Sivik> there we go
[01:43] <Sivik> it worked that way
[01:43] <kingspawn> niocin: sudo nano /etc/fstab
[01:43] <dylonium> thanks
[01:43] <niocin> kingspawn: mmk now?
[01:43] <Jowi> how do I export display :0 in tightvncserver? i can export :1 and so on without problem.
[01:43] <cafuego> nickrud: I only packaged the firmware, nothing else.
[01:43] <_jim_> YUPEEEEEEEEE I mounted my 2 fat32 partitions!
[01:43] <dylonium> ill still stay in here
[01:43] <nickrud> cafuego, I brought it up because of :
[01:43] <_jim_> now guys , i need help how to access the already mounted Primary Boot partition
[01:43] <dylonium> just in case i need help
[01:43] <nickrud> !bcm43xx
[01:43] <ubotu> To use your broadcom or airport extreme card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx for info and firmware.
[01:44] <kingspawn> niocin: look at the other entries, at the bottom, start a new entry, and make it like: /dev/hdd1 /media/hdd1 msdos,umask=0000,fmask=0111,auto
[01:44] <moparfan90> how do i extract a .tar.gz file in terminal???
[01:44] <kingspawn> moparfan90: tar zxvf file
[01:44] <derekS> moparfan90: tar xvzf file
[01:44] <nickrud> cafuego, was mentioned as a bad link, my bad for not checking
[01:44] <derekS> haha
[01:44] <moparfan90> ok
[01:44] <kingspawn> derekS: ;)
[01:44] <moparfan90> thanks

[01:44] <jimcooncat> nautilus question: I want to right-click on a file and get the md5sum. How to set this up so it's easy?
[01:45] <dylonium> zip cvf filename.zip ?
[01:45] <dylonium> nvm
[01:45] <linxeh> zip filename.zip list.of.files
[01:45] <linxeh> you may need -r for recursive
[01:45] <_jim_> hey guys how i can label my mounted partitions ?
[01:46] <niocin> kingspawn: i have no clue haha, its fine i'll just stick to typing it out for now lmao
[01:46] <moparfan90> where are the themes stored for xfce?
[01:46] <kingspawn> niocin: if you just add the line i gave you to the end of /etc/fstab, you should be okay
[01:46] <xnull> linxeh filename.zip dirs ?
[01:46] <chucks> hello , could someone help me with a trouble i got with my laptop?
[01:47] <linxeh> xnull: zip -r filename.zip dirs
[01:47] <zyth> Anyone here ever install/use ISPConfig on Ubuntu?
[01:47] <nicolas__> how do i manually get the pubkey for aptget ?
[01:47] <xnull> linxeh thanks
[01:47] <morose> oyeee i'm back :(
[01:47] <moparfan90> sudo apt-get install pubkey .... maybe
[01:47] <Caminomaster> Hello

[01:48] <nicolas__> no
[01:48] <Caminomaster> How can I configure aMSn to talk? (audio)
[01:48] <christianpiper> GAH! Anyone know how to find/install libcario1 on a ubununtu dapper machine?
[01:48] <niocin> kingspawn: i type that out and then i hit ctrl+x to get out then hit y to save and it says error writing /ect/fstab
[01:48] <jmg> apt-get install ubuntu-keyring
[01:48] <niocin> kingspawn: no such file dir
[01:48] <kingspawn> niocin: /etc, not /ect
[01:48] <johntramp> hey i have a problem with the xorg in ubuntu on my brother's computer.  he just installed 5.10 and then updated everything overnight and then this morning xorg wouldn't start,  so I reinstalled the ATI modules and now xorg starts but there are 8 overlapping screens
[01:48] <johntramp> has anyone seen this before?
[01:48] <xnull> linxeh i got some warnings zip warning: name not matched: acs39co/acs39co/homedir/catalogs/acs39co/images
[01:48] <nicolas__> jmg: thx
[01:49] <nickrud> nicolas__, gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv  437D05B5      gpg --export --armor 437D05B5  | sudo apt-key add -
[01:49] <xnull> linxeh: its everything ok? or ?
[01:49] <linxeh> johntramp: I've had no end of trouble with the ATI drivers so far
[01:49] <linxeh> but I'm using Dapper, so :o
[01:49] <morose> does one have to install spamassassin manually on breezy badger
[01:49] <linxeh> xnull: does that path exist ?
[01:49] <morose> (5.10)
[01:49] <nickrud> nicolas__, erm, sorry  use :gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv  437D05B5  && gpg --export --armor 437D05B5  | sudo apt-key add -
[01:49] <linxeh> morose: think its in either multiverse or universe
[01:49] <niocin> kingspawn: er thats what i typed haha
[01:49] <xnull> linxeh: its a link
[01:49] <nicolas__> nickrud: thats what i was looking for but installing ubuntu-keyring fixed it
[01:49] <Caminomaster> How can I configure aMSn to talk? (audio)
[01:50] <johntramp> linxeh, well he doesn't need 3d rendering,  just to be able to use the computer
[01:50] <kingspawn> niocin: there is no doubt that you have a /etc/fstab - you arent on a live cd are you?
[01:50] <nickrud> nicolas__, I'm always glad to hear of a shortcut :)
[01:50] <morose> linxeh: s'anks
[01:50] <matth-w> It actually almost seems like I'm having a problem running my hardware...
[01:50] <matth-w> Because my cam isn't working, my cd-r is having problems.
[01:50] <ciplogic> nickrud: I was reinstalled GNOME and no progress :(
[01:50] <niocin> kingspawn: nope i'm on a install cd
[01:50] <_jim_> why i cant access Systen>Administration>Login Screen Setup ??????????/
[01:50] <linxeh> johntramp: have a look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf, see the card/screen/Driver whatever section, and change it to "ati" from fglrx if that is what is there
[01:50] <kingspawn> niocin: then /etc/fstab exists, undoubtedly.
[01:50] <linxeh> xnull: humm
[01:50] <kbrooks> Caminomaster: #amsn ?
[01:51] <linxeh> xnull: zip files wont handle links well - its not a windows concept I guess; why not use tar.gz ?
[01:51] <nickrud> ciplogic, labels on a volume are nice, but not critical.
[01:51] <niocin> kingspawn: actually bro it doesnt
[01:51] <xnull> linxeh : cuz tar is not working
[01:51] <_jim_> hey whats the FAQ ubuntu official site ?
[01:51] <ciplogic> nickrud: you have right... :P
[01:51] <Jowi> !vnc
[01:51] <ubotu> [vnc]  http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-36715.html, or http://www.tightvnc.com/docs.html, or see 'x11vnc' (VNC server which uses your current X11 session)
[01:51] <linxeh> xnull: what does tar do ?
[01:51] <christianpiper> Hello-- Does anybody know if it is possible to install libcario1 on dapper? I am trying to get Dr Queue installed...
[01:51] <_jim_> !faq
[01:51] <ubotu> The most Frequently Asked Questions of #ubuntu are summarized on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FaqOnIrc - please have a look - see also !desktopguide
[01:51] <kingspawn> niocin: seriously? you are 100% sure here? ls -l /etc/fstab
[01:51] <xnull> linxeh: core dumped i was hacked
[01:51] <johntramp> linxeh, ah yes that was the first error -  missing module fglrx
[01:51] <amphi> xnull: see the -y option for zip for symlink option
[01:51] <niocin> kingspawn: wait, isnt /dev/hdd1 my 200gb one, i didnt install ubuntu on that
[01:51] <Jowi> !info x11vnc
[01:51] <steel> anyone have any idea how to get symlinks working in proftpd?
[01:51] <johntramp> linxeh, ill try that
[01:51] <ubotu> x11vnc: (VNC server which uses your current X11 session), section universe/x11, is optional. Version: 0.7.1-3 (breezy), Packaged size: 420 kB, Installed size: 920 kB
[01:52] <ciplogic> christianpiper: it is installed by default
[01:52] <kingspawn> niocin: this is just to tell the system that it should make /dev/hdd1 available all the time
[01:52] <linxeh> johntramp,: it should work to get you up and runnign again - its what I've had to do here
[01:52] <linxeh> xnull: ouch; want a binary for tar?
[01:52] <xnull> linxeh: nope
[01:52] <ic56> Trying to install on a bad harddisk.  How do I tell the installer to run
[01:52] <niocin> kingspawn: yeah dude i'm in on file browser on etc and i dont see fstab
[01:52] <ic56> badblocks(8) when creating the filesystems?
[01:53] <kingspawn> niocin: get into a terminal, and type ls -l /etc/fstab
[01:53] <linxeh> maybe another thing you could do is make a ext2 filesystem in a file, and mount it with loopback?
[01:53] <linxeh> assuming you are trying to backup files
[01:53] <ciplogic> is name is: /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2
[01:53] <kingspawn> niocin: if it didnt exist, you probably wouldnt be able to boot your os
[01:53] <nickrud> niocin, are you saying that /etc/fstab doesn't exist?
[01:53] <christianpiper> On DAPPER? Really? Cause the .Deb installer said it couldn't fix the dependency- and apt-get install libcario1 didn't find the package....
[01:53] <ciplogic> you may use a symlink to your old references
[01:53] <xnull> linxeh: or can I do it with bunzip2? or gunzip ?
[01:53] <denisbr> Hi, What is include in the package ubuntu-desktop?
[01:53] <linxeh> xnull: those will only handle single files at a time; you normally use them with tar
[01:53] <ciplogic> the package is named: libcairo2
[01:54] <linxeh> xnull: you might be able to use cpio to create a cpio archive (older form of tar really), and gzip that etc
[01:54] <niocin> kingspawn: it says -rw-r--r--  1 root root 464 2005-07-08 06:08 /etc/fstab
[01:54] <ciplogic> but inside has references to libcairo1
[01:54] <kingspawn> niocin: it exists! now: sudo nano /etc/fstab
[01:54] <amphi> xnull: why can't you use tar?
[01:54] <scorchsaber> Hey, I want to install firefox <IP_ADDRESS>, and I was wondering: Should I compile from source, or follow the directions for the default tar.gz that you can download (instructions:https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion)
[01:54] <linxeh> amphi: it cores
[01:54] <nickrud> christianpiper, try libcairo2
[01:54] <niocin> kingspawn: hahaha woops, i was typing ect the entire time.......*slaps self*
[01:54] <Elazar> Can anyone recommend a simple tool for Ubuntu that I can use to add text to a PDF file or export it to some editable format that won't rip the document formatting to shreds?
[01:55] <nickrud> christianpiper, but dapper questions should be in #ubuntu+1
[01:55] <kingspawn> niocin: I was suspecting that ;)
[01:55] <amphi> xnull: try running the tar command under gdb and see why/where it segfaults, perhaps
[01:55] <niocin> kingspawn: sorrya bout that
[01:55] <kingspawn> niocin: its cool
[01:55] <linxeh> amphi: he was hacked; I think he's just trying to backup a bunch of files
[01:55] <farruinn> scorchsaber: If there is documentation on the wiki I would follow that
[01:55] <niocin> kingspawn: mmk did that, brb food
[01:56] <kingspawn> xnull: how did you get yourself hacked?
[01:56] <amphi> linxeh: ah
[01:56] <scorchsaber> farruin: There is documentation for both precedures
[01:56] <slavik> !ubotu
[01:56] <ubotu> ubotu is probably useless
[01:56] <kingspawn> niocin: k, leaving in about 5-10
[01:56] <Caminomaster> kbrooks, Yes,... can I configure aMSN to voice?
[01:56] <scorchsaber> Which should I choose?
[01:56] <kingspawn> nickrud: You know what I mean
[01:56] <denisbr> Elazar, use the pdftotext for edit a pdf file
[01:56] <linxeh> nickrud, depends if you are running a honeypot :)
[01:57] <nickrud> kingspawn, heh. It's all about voice :)
[01:57] <kingspawn> nickrud: :)
[01:57] <spoons> I need to update libgcc1 to 1:4.0.2, though if I go to remove the old one it says it will take 600 and some odd meg off my hdd and that it is critical.
[01:57] <spoons> what do I have to do to get Blender 2.41 installed!
[01:57] <zyth> hmm
[01:58] <linxeh> why remove the old one ?
[01:58] <Elazar> denisbr: That'll convert it to plain text, though, won't it?
[01:58] <nickrud> linxeh, and I stand corrected, that would be right voice
[01:58] <scorchsaber> Should I install from source or prebuilt tar.gz?
[01:58] <niocin> kingspawn: okay i'm back
[01:58] <spoons> linxeh don't I need to remove the old one to find the new one?
[01:58] <NickGarvey> spoons: same say you need to sell your soul...
[01:58] <chucks> linxeh- hey can i ask you some help?
[01:58] <linxeh> spoons: can you not just upgrade the packet ?
[01:58] <linxeh> err
[01:58] <linxeh> package
[01:59] <denisbr> Elazar, yes, convert all text
[01:59] <scorchsaber> Should I install Firefox from source, or from the prebuilt tar.gz?
[01:59] <farruinn> scorchsaber: I would go with the the tar.gz - it won't take as long
[01:59] <spoons> it says "libgcc1 is already the newest version."
[01:59] <scorchsaber> thank you
[01:59] <Elazar> denisbr: That's why I specifically said _won't_ rip the document formatting to shreds. :P
[02:00] <rustlerharv> scorchsaber:  what about repos
[02:00] <scorchsaber> repos doesn't have up-to-date anything, really
[02:00] <lilminimey06> hi everyone
[02:00] <nickrud> scorchsaber, from http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[02:00] <lilminimey06> everytime i connect my ipod i need to type this in a console: "mount -o users,exec,suid,umask=0 /dev/sdb2 /mnt/ipod/" how can i make this auto?
[02:00] <romulo> hi, how i prevent one module from loading on kernel?
[02:00] <kingspawn> niocin: well, now you can test the fstab by first doing: sudo umount /media/hdd1  and then  sudo mount -a
[02:00] <niocin> kingspawn: mmk
[02:00] <scorchsaber> nickrud: I know, I have that page
[02:00] <johntramp> linxeh, no that didn't change anything :(
[02:00] <denisbr> What it is include in the package ubuntu-desktop? I want delete the package update-notifier, more is removing the package ubuntu-desktop
[02:00] <nickrud> scorchsaber, that wiki page will integrate firefox 1.5x properly with ubuntu
[02:00] <dylonium> aha, i got the pw problem
[02:01] <spoons> If I upgrade to the new Beta unbuntu, will it run blender3d 2.41
[02:01] <dylonium> so im fixed
[02:01] <dylonium> hopefully
[02:01] <lilminimey06> anyone?
[02:01] <niocin> kingspawn: mmk i did that, now i check in file browser?
[02:01] <scorchsaber> Yes. Thanks though
[02:01] <kingspawn> niocin: seems clever
[02:01] <denisbr> Elazar, Sorry, I don't program for it
[02:01] <amphi> denisbr: don't worry about that - ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package
[02:01] <rustlerharv> spoons: it runs blender
[02:01] <scorchsaber> the one on compiling also mentions that page to integrate your compiled version
[02:01] <nickrud> scorchsaber, if you'd already seen that page, why even ask
[02:01] <rustlerharv> idk about that version
[02:01] <niocin> kingspawn: yep its there
[02:02] <farruinn> spoons: You can check versions of packages on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[02:02] <kingspawn> niocin: then you're good to go, and it will mount every boot
[02:02] <scorchsaber> nickrud: I didn't know whether to compile or use the default tar.gz
[02:02] <spoons> rustlerharv do you know if it is version 2.41? I can install blender 2.37 but its missing features I need for the tutorials.
[02:02] <scorchsaber> it was a deciosion
[02:02] <ic56> denisbr: dpkg -L ubuntu-desktop
[02:02] <denisbr> amphi, humm, then How I removed the update-notifier our disabilited the automatic run?
[02:02] <scorchsaber> bleh
[02:02] <lilminimey06> dont anyone know?
[02:02] <niocin> kingspawn: mmk saweet, now about the whole typing out kingspawn: thing, is that something i'm just gonna have to do, or can i like shift click?
[02:02] <nickrud> scorchsaber, ah. Sorry, I hadn't seen it since some effort to mention self-compiled packages had been added.
[02:02] <amphi> denisbr: huh?
[02:02] <kingspawn> niocin: what do you mean now?
[02:02] <lilminimey06> i need to do that my ipod automaticly mounts when connected
[02:03] <amphi> ipod schmipod
[02:03] <scorchsaber> nickrud: I don't understand. What?
[02:03] <rustlerharv> spoons: im running 2.41
[02:03] <nicolas__> is there a metapackage for all the stuff that is normally installed at first boot ?
[02:03] <denisbr> amphi, How I removed the package update-notifier ?
[02:03] <niocin> kingspawn: how i have to type out kingspawn: every time, is there an easier way?
[02:03] <kingspawn> niocin: oh, heh, just type ki and hit tab
[02:03] <amphi> denisbr: htf would I know how you removed it?
[02:03] <nickrud> scorchsaber, never mind me. I'll just point at that page, and shut up :)
[02:04] <niocin> kingspawn, nice
[02:04] <rustlerharv> idk how to use it yet but thats what im runnning
[02:04] <scorchsaber> nickrud: :D
[02:04] <niocin> kingspawn, that makes me less typing haha
[02:04] <Sivik> what is the easy way to upgrade from breezy to dapper?
[02:04] <grungy> I ruined my sources.list and ran apt-get upgrade-dist
[02:04] <kingspawn> niocin: does, doesnt it? :)
[02:04] <spoons> rustlerharv do you know if I can upgrade ubuntu to the latest version without messing up my setup?
[02:04] <scorchsaber> thanks anyway nickrud
[02:04] <niocin> kingspawn, lol
[02:04] <amphi> niocin: soon you'll find yourself trying to tab-complete every word ;)
[02:04] <hondadarrell> anyone know where the C: drive is in wine?
[02:04] <niocin> amphi, LOL yeah watch
[02:05] <NickGarvey> hondadarrell: need to mount it.. !mount
[02:05] <kingspawn> oh well, im off for the night
[02:05] <rustlerharv> spoons: upgrading to dapper in general or for blender
[02:05] <amphi> niocin: there's a script for irssi that uses a dictionary to let you do just that
[02:05] <denisbr> amphi, yes, our How I then for to remove the execute automatic?
[02:05] <spoons> rustlerharv upgrading to dapper
[02:05] <hondadarrell> !mount
[02:05] <ubotu> mount is probably the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[02:05] <scorchsaber> Is there any terminal that accepts a command like Ctrl-V and C?
[02:05] <scorchsaber> I mean, i makes it a bit difficult
[02:05] <grungy> Is it possible to edit the sources.list in /etc/apt/sources.list from the cli?
[02:05] <greenbmw530i> can someone help me out with the flashplayer plugin for firefox?
[02:06] <scorchsaber> it* makes it a bit difficult
[02:06] <niocin> amphi, LoL wow you linux users get WAY lazy huh?
[02:06] <kingspawn> scorchsaber: ctrl-insert is copy, shift-insert is paste
[02:06] <kingspawn> grungy: yes yes
[02:06] <niocin> kingspawn, hey wait, if i want to put somehting on the hd, or change the name it wont let met
[02:06] <inazad_> Anyone can help me about my nividia tv out ?
[02:06] <greenbmw530i> can someone help me  with the flashplayer plugin for firefox?
[02:07] <rustlerharv> spoons: i tihnk it would prolly depend ive upgrade b4 with no problems other then having to reenable me nvidia drivers
[02:07] <linxeh> niocin, it's not a linux thing :p
[02:07] <grungy> could you possibly tell me a way
[02:07] <niocin> linxeh, haha
[02:07] <grungy> it would be most appreciated
[02:07] <farruinn> scorchsaber: if you're in gnome-terminal just add shift for your ctrl-c/v type stuff
[02:07] <amphi> denisbr: sorry, you are hard to understand; you can use apt-get to remove the package; nothing else will be removed, just the ubuntu-desktop meta-package will no longer be installed, because one of the packages it 'contains' is being removed
[02:07] <scorchsaber> Hm.. thanks
[02:07] <kingspawn> niocin: type !vfat in the channel here, and read the link on the wiki
[02:07] <niocin> !vfat
[02:07] <ubotu> Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter to make your windows or mac partitions mount automatically.  If you wish to set it up yourself by hand, read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[02:07] <amphi> niocin: heh
[02:08] <NickGarvey> amphi: where can I find that script!? I have done that more than once, be like... supercali (tab tab tab) hey what the?...
[02:08] <rustlerharv> spoons: what tutorial are you r\unning
[02:08] <greenbmw530i> can someone help me  with the flashplayer plugin for firefox?
[02:08] <amphi> NickGarvey: heh - irssi.org
[02:08] <vinboy> hi
[02:09] <nickrud> green_earz, sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree
[02:09] <vinboy> how do I check my Xorg version?
[02:09] <varsendagger> ahh my computer keeps rebooting when i leave   how can i find out why it is doing this?
[02:09] <varsendagger> hig
[02:09] <Sivik> green: are you using i386 or x86_64?
[02:09] <varsendagger> hi
[02:09] <greenbmw530i> i get a "NOTE:  Please ask your administrator to remove the xpti.dat from the
[02:09] <greenbmw530i>  components directory of the Mozilla or Netscape browser"
[02:09] <nickrud> vinboy, X -version
[02:09] <greenbmw530i> i386
[02:09] <Sivik> then it should be very simple
[02:09] <amphi> NickGarvey: dictcomplete.pl it's called
[02:09] <grungy> could someone possible tell me how to edit a text file from the cli?
[02:09] <greenbmw530i> when i try to delete the two xpti.dat's, it says I don't have access.
[02:09] <Sivik> just go to a page that needs the plugin and click on the plugin
[02:09] <greenbmw530i> yeah
[02:09] <Sivik> cli?
[02:09] <greenbmw530i> then i download
[02:09] <_jason> grungy: nano /path/to/file
[02:09] <grungy> gedit will certainly not work
[02:09] <scorchsaber> scorchsaber@ubuntuDJ:/$ mv .mozilla/firefox .mozilla/firefox1.0.x.ubuntu
[02:09] <scorchsaber> mv: cannot stat `.mozilla/firefox': No such file or directory
[02:09] <Sivik> try vi
[02:09] <grungy> command line interface
[02:09] <varsendagger> anyone?
[02:10] <Sivik> vi works
[02:10] <Sivik> vi filenam
[02:10] <grungy> damn, I don't know vi
[02:10] <greenbmw530i> read the readme...do it, but i get "NOTE: Please ask your administrator to remove the xpti.dat from the
[02:10] <greenbmw530i>       components directory of the Mozilla or Netscape browser"
[02:10] <grungy> how about emacs?
[02:10] <scorchsaber> Whats up with that? .mozilla is a hidden file, and there, and so is firefox in it. What do I need to do?
[02:10] <NickGarvey> grungy: nano then?
[02:10] <nickrud> greenbmw530i, use sudo to remove those files (although I never had to)
[02:10] <grungy> seems more intuitive
[02:10] <Sivik> green: it should it do automatily
[02:10] <amphi> grungy: there's mcedit too
[02:10] <greenbmw530i> it tells me i need an administrator to do so
[02:10] <vinboy> thanks nickrud
[02:10] <greenbmw530i> but i'll try sudo
[02:10] <greenbmw530i> ty
[02:10] <grungy> would sudo vi filename work also
[02:10] <grungy> ?
[02:11] <nickrud> grungy, for editing system files, yes
[02:11] <greenbmw530i> btw, how can i just log in as root/admin so i don't have to worry about things like this?
[02:11] <sethk> grungy, sure
[02:11] <nickrud> greenbmw530i, use sudo
[02:11] <j1p> gr33npho3nix, logging in as root is bad, use sudo
[02:11] <grungy> cool, thanks, this is great
[02:11] <grungy> I love it
[02:11] <sethk> greenbmw530i, it's better to do sudo -i to get a root command shell
[02:11] <greenbmw530i> k
[02:11] <scorchsaber> greenbmw530i: You really don't want to, bad for security and all
[02:11] <greenbmw530i> ok, thanks
[02:11] <nickrud> greenbmw530i, it's a way of getting admin/root privileges, and a safe one
[02:11] <dli> greenbmw530i, I enable root passwd on ubuntu :)
[02:11] <scorchsaber> whats up with this:
[02:11] <scorchsaber> scorchsaber@ubuntuDJ:/$ mv .mozilla/firefox .mozilla/firefox1.0.x.ubuntu
[02:11] <scorchsaber> mv: cannot stat `.mozilla/firefox': No such file or directory
[02:11] <farruinn> sethk: What's the difference between sudo -i and sudo -s -H?
[02:12] <nickrud> dli, don't tempt people :)
[02:12] <scorchsaber> There is that directory
[02:12] <scorchsaber> But it won't move it?
[02:12] <johntramp> linxeh, hmmm now all i get is a black screen
[02:12] <grungy> well the problem is is that I ruined my sources.list for apt, so I'm stuck sans gui
[02:12] <grungy> I'll try vi
[02:12] <sethk> farruinn, -s sets the shell for each command, it isn't about getting a shell to enter multiple commands
[02:12] <grungy> thanks guys
[02:13] <nickrud> farruinn, you can see for yourself: do sudo -i , then env | sort. Then do sudo , then env | sort .
[02:13] <Sivik> how do you upgrade from brezzy to dapper
[02:13] <scorchsaber> solved it
[02:13] <_jason> !upgrade
[02:13] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades .
[02:13] <scorchsaber> had to add ~/ in front
[02:13] <_jason> Sivik: beware that dapper is still beta
[02:13] <scorchsaber> I'll change the wiki to support that I guess
[02:13] <Sivik> i don't care
[02:13] <greenbmw530i> bah, whats the command to delete files in terminal?
[02:13] <nickrud> farruinn, the critical issue is what is your home dir, sudo -i uses /root and sudo uses /home/<you>
[02:13] <Sivik> i need the newer kernel
[02:13] <_jason> greenbmw530i: rm
[02:13] <_jason> ubotu: tell greenbmw530i about cli
[02:13] <Sivik> rm green
[02:14] <Redbluefire> Hey, X refuses to start on my fresh ubuntu install
[02:14] <Sivik> green: its rm and if its a folder, its rm -r
[02:14] <greenbmw530i> many thanks
[02:14] <Redbluefire> I've tracked it to the config file, but dexconf errors out
[02:14] <Sivik> green: yw
[02:14] <johntramp> can't i browse the ubuntu forums without registering?
[02:15] <nickrud> Redbluefire, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't get you a working X?
[02:15] <niocin> Will someone help me install wine?
[02:15] <newbuntu> can anyone tell me what the best way to convert a downloaded avi movie into  mpg so I can turn around and have k3b burn it to a vcd that can be watched on a dvdplayer?
[02:15] <crimsun> niocin: enable universe, then use Synaptic to install wine
[02:15] <nickrud> no, wine is evil (rflmao)
[02:15] <NickGarvey> newbuntu: I saw a perl script, avi2mpeg
[02:15] <newbuntu> niocin apt-get install wine  then install winetools
[02:16] <ic56> cat: ../q1: No such file or directory
[02:16] <j1p> niocin, you should use the wine apt repository, instead of ubuntu's
[02:16] <newbuntu> im still shakey on scripts
[02:16] <Redbluefire> Password? what's the default root password, or is it my password?
[02:16] <niocin> jlp, how woudl i do that?
[02:16] <linxeh> johntramp: humm; maybe you dont have the xorg-driver-ati package installed ?
[02:16] <nickrud> Redbluefire, there is no root password
[02:16] <j1p> niocin, add deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/ to your sources.list
[02:16] <nickrud> !tell Redbluefire about root
[02:16] <linxeh> johntramp, or the display settings (refresh, resolution etc) is incorrect for the driver ?
[02:17] <niocin> jlp, i've done that
[02:17] <ic56> Trying to install on a bad harddisk.  How do I tell the installer to run badblocks(8) when creating the filesystems?
[02:17] <nickrud> Redbluefire, that msg you just got will give you an overview
[02:17] <j1p> niocin, alright, have you updated /etc/apt/preferences?
[02:17] <Redbluefire> nope, x still has the same error
[02:17] <niocin> jlp, nope
[02:17] <steel> how do i mount only a subdirectory of a hard drive into another hard drive
[02:17] <j1p> niocin, http://www.winehq.com/site/download-deb should have all the information you need
[02:17] <linxeh> ic56: ctrl+alt+f1, get a command prompt and do it by hand, then dont let the installer format maybe ?
[02:17] <niocin> jlp, okay
[02:18] <rustlerharv> steel: what file systems
[02:18] <nickrud> Redbluefire, if you'd post your /var/log/Xorg.0.log to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[02:18] <dougiefresh> greetings, what is the latest stable release of ubuntu?
[02:18] <Redbluefire> hmm, it's on the other computer, can i do that via command prompt?
[02:18] <amphi> steel: you mount partitions
[02:18] <steel> a windows partition
[02:18] <johntramp> linxeh, usually when they are the problem xorg wont start tho wont it?  would it have anything to do with the dri line?
[02:18] <rustlerharv> ntfs or fat
[02:18] <steel> fat
[02:18] <nickrud> Redbluefire, hm, yes, there's a script to help with that, a sec
[02:18] <Redbluefire> hehe
[02:19] <schultzi> hey, quick question, is there any way i can get an image background for my framebuffer?
[02:19] <amphi> steel: mount -t vfat /dev/whatever /mount/point
[02:19] <rustlerharv> you should be able mv them
[02:19] <dougiefresh> anyone?
[02:19] <johntramp> linxeh, is there an xorgconfig of some sort which i can run so that it generates the same xorg file as after a new install?
[02:19] <steel> but how do i mount only part of the drive... i dont want to mount the whole HD only a subdirectory within it
[02:19] <majd> hi
[02:20] <rustlerharv> steel: y not the whole ting
[02:20] <amphi> steel: you mount partitions
[02:20] <majd> can i use wine to install my camera's driver and then load up msn messenger (also using wine) and use my webcam?
[02:20] <dougiefresh> breezy is out of beta isn't it?
[02:20] <crimsun> breezy released in october 2005.
[02:20] <brandon_> steel: the path to the subdirectory should be in the /dev/whatever section
[02:20] <steel> im sharing it for FTP, don't need to FTP my personal files
[02:20] <ic56> dougiefresh: breezy badger (5.10) is current.  Dapper Drake, the next one, is due June 1st
[02:20] <schultzi> majd: it probably wont work, something as low-level as drivers dont play well with wine
[02:20] <brandon_> steel: so /dev/drive/pathtodirectory
[02:21] <steel> thanks
[02:21] <myleftfoot> \join #ubuntu+1
[02:21] <nickrud> does anyone have seveas's python pastebin script at hand, I can't seem to google it
[02:21] <steel> wrong slash
[02:21] <myleftfoot> hehe, wrong slashy
[02:21] <dougiefresh> so if I'm running breezy what would I put in apt.sources file?
[02:22] <Seveas> nickrud, perhaps it's linked on the pastebin site....
[02:22] <nickrud> Seveas, doh, kick me again :)
[02:22] <Redbluefire> heh
[02:22] <majd> what kernel version does breezy 5.10 use?
[02:22] <rustlerharv> dougiefresh: change breezy to dapper
[02:22] <Seveas> majd, 2.6.12
[02:22] <majd> k thanks
[02:22] <Sivik> 2.6.12
[02:22] <dougiefresh> but isn't dapper beta?
[02:23] <steel> what kernal do i have to have to mount things to multiple places
[02:23] <schultzi> anybody good with framebuffers?
[02:23] <rustlerharv> ya
[02:23] <dougiefresh> dont wanna use beta
[02:23] <Sivik> how do i upgrade from breezy to dapper
[02:23] <amphi> steel: what do you mean?
[02:23] <Seveas> !tell Sivik about upgrade
[02:23] <nickrud> Seveas I meant the one that doesn't need a gui, I know I saw it once
[02:23] <steel> amphi: there's a new kernal that allows mounting HDs to multiple places, i might not be that high up
[02:23] <scorchsaber> Firefox is correctly installed, and an error in the wiki changed
[02:23] <rustlerharv> dougiefresh: then dont upgrae
[02:24] <scorchsaber> Hooah!
[02:24] <biovore> steel: thats nothing new
[02:24] <nickrud> Seveas, and you need a better sense of humor, or a better sense of context
[02:24] <dougiefresh> nothing trying to upgrade?
[02:24] <dougiefresh> :)
[02:24] <dougiefresh> trying to bootstrap it
[02:24] <varsendagger> Seveas, ahh my computer keeps rebooting when i leave   how can i find out why it is doing this?
[02:24] <astro9040> hello
[02:24] <steel> well i dont think mine is doing it
[02:24] <astro9040> on .deb files i use dpkg right?
[02:24] <steel> because when i try to mount it it says it doesnt exist
[02:25] <steel> and it does
[02:25] <PuMpErNiCkLe> steel: Wouldn't using a symlink be easier?
[02:25] <amphi> steel: you can't mount a directory
[02:25] <varsendagger> is there a crash report that i can read, it weems to do it everyday since i redid my system
[02:25] <steel> i thought... i could mount a subdirectory, and symlinks dont work in ftp
[02:25] <PuMpErNiCkLe> varsendagger: check the output of dmesg
[02:25] <Sivik> Saveas: the command on that page doesn't work
[02:25] <myleftfoot> Sivik, you can use    gksudo "update-manager -d"  to upgrade to dapper
[02:25] <NickGarvey> steel: oohh.. thats why I couldn't cd over ftp to a sym link.. oh...
[02:25] <twinge> anyone had any luck getting xinerama working with a dell laptop?
[02:26] <astro9040> or the command sudo dpkg -i <.debfile>
[02:26] <steel> hehe
[02:26] <nicolas__> how do you call that gnome applet that reminds you of updates ?
[02:26] <Sivik> i get an error that says "Xlib: connction to ":0.0" refused by server
[02:26] <PuMpErNiCkLe> nicolas__: update-manager
[02:26] <Sivik> myleftfoot: i get that error and it stops
[02:27] <nickrud> Redbluefire, http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/pastebin
[02:27] <Redbluefire> wget it?
[02:27] <brandon_> steel: you could just change your shared ftp folder fromt eh default, which i think is var/pub, to this fat folder you're mounting
[02:27] <zith> test
[02:27] <NickGarvey> ing123
[02:27] <sinnerg> test back :p
[02:28] <Sivik> myleftfoot: it says my system is up to date
[02:28] <steel> brandon_: I have other things i need to have in there and the fat is read only
[02:28] <NickGarvey> harvard.stanford.edu
[02:28] <NickGarvey> show off
[02:28] <Sivik> there it goes
[02:28] <Sivik> myleftfoot: nvm
[02:28] <steel> this is what the proftpd guide says to do,"Work arounds to allow access to other parts of the file system include exporting the part of the filesystem to be accessed from inside the chroot and mounting via NFS" how do i do that?
[02:28] <nicolas__> PuMpErNiCkLe: this is an application
[02:28] <nicolas__> it doesnt appear on gnomes applet list
[02:29] <Sivik> what kernel does dapper use?
[02:29] <linuxgeekery> Sivik: 2.6.15
[02:29] <Sivik> is the bcm43xx drivers in that on?
[02:29] <Sivik> one*
[02:29] <cafuego> yes
[02:29] <Sivik> kick
[02:29] <NickGarvey>  Sivik: ndiswrapper is what I use
[02:29] <steel> it also says "As of the 2.4.x Linux kernel tree it is possible to mount filesystems multiple times and to mount subdirectories of filesystems elsewhere on the filesystem."
[02:30] <Sivik> ndiswrapper is old and i could never get to work
[02:30] <PuMpErNiCkLe> nicolas__: It iconifies if there are any updates.
[02:30] <NickGarvey> Sivik: old?
[02:30] <niocin> mmk so i did pretty much everything the wine site told me, and it installed i think but it went from settiing up wine to ... and stopped
[02:30] <Sivik> the old way to do it
[02:30] <Redbluefire> nickrud, what's it's usage, how do I execute the script?
[02:30] <Sivik> since there are drivers now
[02:30] <NickGarvey> Sivik: if its old and it works why not do it?
[02:30] <NickGarvey> I still eat with my mouth but people have been doing that for thousands of years ;)
[02:30] <Sivik> Nick: i never can get it to work
[02:30] <brandon_> steel: maybe when you tried to mount the folder, you got the path wrong
[02:31] <NickGarvey> ah, okie, worked fine when I compiled the newest version from svn
[02:31] <steel> i hope so
[02:31] <steel> let me recheck
[02:31] <Sivik> well, then you must be a better man than me
[02:31] <niocin> NickGarvey, hey can you help me getting wine to work?
[02:31] <brandon_> steel: and remember, it's case sensitive
[02:31] <NickGarvey> niocin: mm I use suse, it was very easy for me, not sure how to get it to work for you
[02:31] <steel> yea
[02:31] <majd> hi
[02:31] <majd> how can i "2) run 'make'"
[02:32] <steel> i did it right...
[02:32] <niocin> can anyone help me get wine working?
[02:32] <Sivik> what wrong with it niocin?
[02:32] <Sivik> do you have it installed?
[02:32] <linuxgeekery> niocin: what's the problem?
[02:32] <PuMpErNiCkLe> majd: If you have the 'build-essential' package installed, make sure you're in the right directory, you've run ./configure, and then just invoke 'make'.
[02:32] <steel> how do i check my kernal version?
[02:33] <Sivik> man /proc/version
[02:33] <PuMpErNiCkLe> steel: uname -r
[02:33] <niocin> I think i got it installed, it sayd it finished downloading then it says Setting up wine (0.9.12~winehq1-1) ...
[02:33] <niocin>  and then goes back to niocin@jakin:
[02:33] <linuxgeekery> steel: uname -r
[02:33] <biovore> steel: uname -a
[02:33] <biovore> lolz
[02:33] <steel> heh
[02:33] <nickrud> Redbluefire , a sec.
[02:33] <Sivik> niocin: then type wine --help
[02:33] <Sivik> and see what you get
[02:33] <biovore> 1 question 4 valid different answers
[02:33] <Redbluefire> k
[02:33] <linuxgeekery> niocin: or winecfg - configure wine
[02:33] <Sivik> that works as well
[02:33] <brandon_> steel: uname -r
[02:33] <steel> heh thanks
[02:34] <niocin> linuxgeekery, okay that seemed to come up haha
[02:34] <nickrud> Redbluefire, I thought it was a simple 'paste the following file to the pastebin', but it's a bit better than that it seems
[02:34] <majd> grr
[02:34] <Redbluefire> lol
[02:34] <majd> i have a Logitech Quickcam Orbit
[02:34] <NickGarvey> steel: I think it might just be uname -r
[02:34] <majd> i read that it can work in linux
[02:34] <majd> but i can't get it working for the life of me
[02:34] <steel> im not... sure
[02:35] <varsendagger> PuMpErNiCkLe, hey i got the dmesg   output, what should i be looking for?
[02:35] <majd> http://kerneltrap.org/node/5402
[02:36] <niocin> linuxgeekery, if i have a other hard drive mounted, can i access a program to run off of that?
[02:36] <niocin> linuxgeekery, because i go to applications>add app and try and find it, and it wont let me
[02:36] <PuMpErNiCkLe> varsendagger: Anything that looks like 'fatal error' or 'panic' or 'something really bad is happening and I don't know how to handle it'.  It could be anything, really.
[02:37] <niocin> linuxgeekery, or do i have to run the .exe off the disk and re-install it?
[02:37] <varsendagger> linux is so articulate
[02:38] <NickGarvey> varsendagger: expressing yourself easily or characterized by clear expressive language; "articulate speech"; "an articulate orator"; "articulate beings"
[02:38] <NickGarvey> varsendagger: so.. thats good?
[02:38] <niocin> Or, i an not be helped..

[02:39] <NickGarvey> jerware: "saved form information" clear that
[02:40] <jerware> amphi:  isnt oomkiller Rawplayer?

[02:42] <jerware> lol
[02:42] <RobyX> DO I type "sudo apt-get install PACKAGE.deb" to install a .deb from the desktop?
[02:42] <_jason> !deb
[02:42] <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)
[02:42] <varsendagger> NickGarvey, Thou beslubbering reeling-ripe vassal!    that is an insult
[02:42] <RobyX> thanks.
[02:43] <varsendagger> like 384
[02:43] <varsendagger> amphi,
[02:43] <niocin> _jason, okay, now how do i run it
[02:43] <NickGarvey> varsendagger: eek take it easy man you are going to make me cry with insults like thta
[02:43] <NickGarvey> s/thta/that
[02:43] <amphi> varsendagger: you could make more swap, 512 or so
[02:43] <amphi> varsendagger: what ran you out of ram?
[02:43] <varsendagger> ok
[02:43] <varsendagger> xorg
[02:43] <majd> Why can't i copy-paste folders from my windows drive to my linux drive?

[02:43] <niocin> okay
[02:44] <varsendagger> majd, !samba
[02:44] <majd> !samba
[02:44] <ubotu> methinks samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[02:44] <varsendagger> amphi, NickGarvey thanks
[02:44] <NickGarvey> any time?
[02:44] <RobyX> Jason, will that  "sudo dpkg -i filename.deb" install the file that is placed on my desktop?
[02:45] <Sivik> thanks for telling me how to upgrade my kernel all
[02:45] <_jason> RobyX: first you will have to change the current working directory to the Desktop, this command would do that: cd ~/Desktop
[02:45] <ranix> How do I run Enlightenment instead of Metacity on login but make no other changes to my GDM startup? (.Xsession hoses everything)
[02:45] <_jason> ubotu: tell RobyX about cli
[02:45] <Sivik> ranix: did you install entrance?
[02:45] <NickGarvey> !tell ranix about enlightenment
[02:45] <codecaine> when im playing flash on a webpage the sound it off from the video how can I fix that?
[02:45] <ranix> I have enlightenment
[02:45] <ranix> what is entrance, Sivik?
[02:45] <codecaine> I use firefox monzilla
[02:45] <Sivik> nvm, i'm wrong
[02:45] <NickGarvey> oh okie sorry
[02:45] <_jason> codecaine: are you using the default firefox in breezy?
[02:45] <amphi> varsendagger: do you run gnome?
[02:46] <codecaine> naw I upgraded to the newest firefox
[02:46] <Sivik> just set the session to default when it asks you if you want to join just this time or set as default
[02:46] <majd> varsendagger, do i access it normally after installing samba?
[02:46] <ranix> sivik, that will load up my normal session
[02:46] <ranix> Sivik, I want to replace metacity with enlightenment in the default session
[02:46] <nickrud> Redbluefire, just to let you know I'm still struggling, if you still need non X pastbinning
[02:46] <Sivik> then edit the .xsession file
[02:46] <Redbluefire> yea, still need it, thanks a ton :)
[02:46] <farous> hi all just fast c question what is := stand for
[02:46] <ranix> where?
[02:46] <_jason> codecaine: install alsa-oss and run firefox as 'aoss firefox'
[02:47] <codecaine> did that
[02:47] <nickrud> Redbluefire, I don't currently, but I can see it in my future :)
[02:47] <farous> codecaine: is it for mplayer plugin
[02:47] <codecaine> youtube
[02:48] <_jason> codecaine: did you close all instances of firefox and then run it through aoss?
[02:48] <codecaine> yes
[02:48] <codecaine> aoss is saved in the config file
[02:48] <Sivik> ranix: you may have to create the file, just read the readme for installing elightenment.  It will explain how to change the xsession file
[02:48] <myleftfoot> Thanks to All. I Love Dapper!!!
[02:48] <_jason> codecaine: no, you need to actually run it as 'aoss firefox' on a command line
[02:48] <Sivik> whats new in dapper?
[02:48] <_jason> codecaine: that config file only works with the firefox that comes from ubuntu afaik
[02:48] <codecaine> oh
[02:49] <codecaine> its a older firefox though has security holes
[02:49] <_jason> codecaine: really?  what are they?
[02:50] <hou5ton> I installed spamassasin and associated packages, but don't see it anywhere ..... how do I get it to interface with Evolution?
[02:50] <NickGarvey> hou5ton: eek no idea use google, I use kontact
[02:50] <Sivik> does that make sense ranix
[02:50] <nickrud> Redbluefire, well, I haven't figured out how to use the pastebin script, sorrry
[02:51] <Redbluefire> gah :P
[02:51] <nickrud> Redbluefire, ask the authority
[02:51] <Redbluefire> whossat?
[02:51] <codecaine> let me find the link
[02:51] <nickrud> Redbluefire, I got it from http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/pastebin
[02:52] <Redbluefire> yea, I wgetted it and tried to get it working
[02:52] <iff> hi has anybody had their fonts change in xfce after ctrl-alt-backspace such as the menu and titlebar?
[02:52] <farous> codecaine: is it for plugin for mplayer or just for flash
[02:53] <abk> hey guys, I'm trying to get WPA working with wpa_supplicant, with the ipw2100 driver. when I run "sudo wpa_supplicant -i eth1 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -D ipw -w" I get a message "ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA] : Operation not supported
[02:53] <abk> " and then nothing. any ideas?
[02:53] <abk> my instructions are all off the WPAHowto wiki page
[02:53] <spoons> 9 minutes!
[02:54] <codecaine> http://www.pro-linux.de/security/5299
[02:54] <codecaine> for flash
[02:55] <farous> codecaine: than use _jason way you need aoss firefox
[02:55] <hou5ton> NickGarvey:  you running KDE in Ubuntu?
[02:55] <_jason> codecaine: that page states ``The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package toversion 1.0.8-0ubuntu4.10 (for Ubuntu 4.10), 1.0.8-0ubuntu5.04 (for buntu 5.04), or 1.0.8-0ubuntu5.10 (for Ubuntu 5.10).''
[02:55] <codecaine> did it from terminal the sound is still off
[02:55] <NickGarvey> hou5ton: nope, suse 10.0
[02:55] <abk> ack, ka-durr. mis-set the SSID in wpa_supplicant.conf
[02:56] <hou5ton> NickGarvey:  Now you got me REAL curious ... so ... you run SuSE and hang out here to help wannabe's like me?  :-)
[02:56] <_jason> codecaine: did you close all instances of firefox beforehand?
[02:56] <amphi> NickGarvey: debian here ;)
[02:57] <NickGarvey> hou5ton: if you want to put it that way.. I find theres a lot more newer linux users here and I like to help them get on their feet
[02:57] <farous> codecaine: first type killall firefox-bin
[02:57] <Sivik> thanks Nick
[02:57] <Sivik> by the way
[02:57] <NickGarvey> yup
[02:57] <niocin_> how do i change my resolution with ubuntu
[02:57] <Sivik> hey Nick: how do i get flash to work in a 64 bit version of FC or Suse
[02:58] <codecaine> yes
[02:58] <NickGarvey> Sivik: suse uses a 32 bit firefox, so get the 32 bit flash player
[02:58] <hollywoodb> iff: i believe your session is saved when you log out, if you ctrl+alt+backspace X, then your settings won't be preserved
[02:58] <farous> codecaine: than type /usr/bin/aoss /bin/sh /usr/bin/firefox
[02:58] <Sivik> ok
[02:58] <NickGarvey> Sivik: that easy
[02:58] <nickrud> !tell niocin about fixres
[02:58] <Sivik> that would explain why its not working
[02:58] <Sivik> cause i'm trying to download the 64 bit flash
[02:58] <NickGarvey> yup
[02:58] <Sivik> thanks
[02:58] <farruinn> Trying to build a kernel from the linux-source-2.6.12 package but can't even get to configuration: http://pastebin.com/682136
[02:58] <nickrud> !tell Seveas about heh
[02:58] <Sivik> cause the auto doesn't work
[02:58] <MHobbit> !fixres
[02:58] <ubotu> fixres is, like, Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:58] <_jason> codecaine: what else do you have playing sound?
[02:58] <ubuntulin> anyone know how to delete old kernels?
[02:58] <spoons> 5 minutes!
[02:59] <amphi> spoons: ?
[02:59] <codecaine> just the system
[02:59] <spoons> *Laughs*
[02:59] <codecaine> when u click on icons etc
[02:59] <hollywoodb> farruinn: you need gcc-3.4 (ubuntu ships with gcc-4.0), apt-get install gcc-3.4
[02:59] <farous> codecaine: did you set default multimedia to alsa
[02:59] <farous> anyway got to go now care codecaine  and care all
[03:00] <hollywoodb> farruinn: you can have both versions installed without problems
[03:00] <farruinn> hollywoodb: Thanks - wasn't mentioned in the wiki :)
[03:00] <spoons> upgrading my ubuntu from breezy to dapper. getting board watching my terminal screen. So I decied to tell everyone how much time was left before it was done.
[03:00] <ubuntulin> anyone know how to delete old kernels?
[03:00] <hou5ton> Apparantly Thunderbird has built-in spam filtering ...
[03:00] <NickGarvey> hou5ton: heh sounds good to me
[03:00] <amphi> ubuntulin: apt-get remove <old_kernel_package>
[03:00] <nickrud> ubuntulin, just run synaptic, and remove all the kernels you don't wnat
[03:00] <ubuntulin> nickrud: how do i find them in synaptic?
[03:01] <amphi> hou5ton: yeah, the baysian filters are said to work well by friends how use tbird
[03:01] <spoons> 2 minutes!
[03:02] <ubuntulin> nickrud: i'm not sure what to search for
[03:03] <nickrud> ubuntulin, simplest way is ctl-f , and linux-image -> all your installed kernels should show up there
[03:03] <codecaine> oh well I guess its not that important
[03:03] <niocin> okay does can anyone help me along with installing World of Warcraft?
[03:03] <NickGarvey> !wow
[03:03] <ubotu> it has been said that wow is To run WoW properly, Wine needs to be built from source: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/WoW and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingWineFromSource
[03:03] <niocin> haha that rules
[03:03] <NickGarvey> :)
[03:04] <steel> how do i access windows networks after i've installed samba?
[03:05] <ubuntulin> nickrud: is it okay to remove "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-18-386" it's affected by removing "linux-image-2.6.15-20-386"
[03:05] <spoons> aaaah my systems going bonkers now!
[03:05] <halazea> Hi folks.  I was hoping someone here could tell me how to rearrange the control, win, and alt keys for my system.
[03:06] <niocin> anyone know how to make terimal opaque?
[03:06] <hollywoodb> ubuntulin: what kernel are you running? (uname -a)
[03:06] <nickrud> ubuntulin, you're gonna want to remove all the restricted modules that match kernels you want to remove ; -21 is the latest (why are you asking here, that's a #ubuntu+1 question :)
[03:06] <niocin> nevermind
[03:06] <ubuntulin> hollywoodb: 2.6.15-21-386
[03:07] <Falstius> is there a windows manager that looks okay on a TV?  I don't want to use mythtv since there's no actual recording involved, just display.
[03:07] <codecaine> is it was faster the kernel ubuntu installs for u?
[03:07] <hollywoodb> ubuntulin: then you should only need linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-21-i386 unless you plan on downgrading kernels
[03:07] <ubuntulin> nickrud: didn't want to join +1 b/c removing kernels isn't *directly* related to dapper
[03:08] <ubuntulin> hollywoodb: nope :)
[03:08] <sifl_> i'm starting to learn how to use php and mysql, does anyone know what apps i should install to just mess around with till i learn it full on?
[03:09] <nickrud> ubuntulin, if you're running dapper, all questions belong there. Breezy is really different.
[03:09] <ubuntulin> nickrud: okay, i'll keep it in mind -- problem solved
[03:09] <ubuntulin> nickrud: thx for your help
[03:09] <spoons> I'm just upgrading to dapper, been running breezy for a few weeks. :)
[03:09] <Sivik> i'm upgrading to dapper too
[03:09] <Sivik> didn't know there was a newer one
[03:09] <ubuntulin> hollywoodb: thx, deleted all but linux-image...21..
[03:10] <spoons> I didn't relize this channel was more for dapper.
[03:10] <NickGarvey> its not

[03:14] <nickrud> NickGarvey, I swear I cut and pasted :)
[03:15] <TehUni> how can i get 2 monitors working in ubuntu? got a nvidia 6600gt with 2 monitors plugged in, but only 1 active.
[03:15] <codecaine> mplayer is the best player for linux right?
[03:15] <NickGarvey> codecaine: never use the word best ;)
[03:15] <lvraab> codecaine, VLC
[03:15] <j1p> codecaine, for what purposes?
[03:16] <ubuntulin> nickgarvey: interesting, i used to run ubuntu on vmware, but my computer didn't have enough ram
[03:16] <codecaine> to watch movies like divx wmv files etc
[03:16] <j1p> codecaine, try VLC, it works with a lot less hassle than mplayer
[03:16] <codecaine> only down fall you can't can't strech the movies to full screen :/
[03:16] <hollywoodb> ubuntulin: yep
[03:16] <codecaine> cool ok
[03:16] <amphi> codecaine: I prefer mplayer
[03:16] <niocin> how come i cant copy from my other hard drie
[03:16] <nickrud> spoons, there's this whole thing going on, slicing the processor between different operating systems. vmware is the granddaddy, xen is what edgy eft is supposed to have, and microsoft is claiming they'll have a working slicer. It's the most exciting thing I've heard of in the last ten years, that this is actually happening
[03:16] <NickGarvey> I like amarok
[03:17] <ubuntulin> hollywoodb: thx for your help, i'm going to restart
[03:17] <codecaine> VLC has alot of codec support?
[03:17] <GoDawgs> hey ya'll..
[03:17] <amphi> codecaine: they all use the same codec libs AFAIK
[03:17] <GoDawgs> wanna know how to add programs to the applications menu once their installed through synaptic
[03:18] <_jason> GoDawgs: applications > system tools > applications menu editor
[03:18] <j1p> codecaine, VLC supports almost all codecs out of the box, except for RealMedia i think
[03:18] <GoDawgs> _jason: ok... let me give that a shot... thanks
[03:18] <_jason> vlc in the repos will not play wmv9
[03:19] <GoDawgs> _jason: I don't have that open... even when I go into alacarte menu editor
[03:19] <_jason> GoDawgs: you don't have what open?
[03:20] <GoDawgs> I dont' have the applications menu editor
[03:20] <GoDawgs> don't
[03:20] <amphi> _jason: just say 'no' to evil proprietary codecs
[03:20] <_jason> GoDawgs: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[03:20] <GoDawgs> dapper
[03:20] <GoDawgs> didn't think this was a dapper specific question though
[03:21] <_jason> GoDawgs: well applications menu editor is alacarte
[03:21] <_jason> amphi: I would love to, just tell that to the content providers :/
[03:22] <GoDawgs> _jason: ok, then I'm confused... why aren't the programs I downloaded there?  could they be somewhere else?
[03:22] <ubuntulin> hollywoodb: good, thx
[03:22] <_jason> GoDawgs: what program in particular?  (not all programs get a menu item, although if it is a gui program it should and you should file a bug0
[03:22] <ubuntulin> can anyone explain to me what "memtest86+" is?
[03:22] <GoDawgs> _jason: it's a gmail notifier
