[08:24] <ChrischiO`GER> yeah but my nonse user is not allowed to read after i mounted it with root
[08:24] <ChrischiO`GER> *nonsu
[08:24] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, then add umask=0000 to the fstab line
[08:24] <Seveas> in the options fiels
[08:24] <ChrischiO`GER> what?
[08:24] <Seveas> field*
[08:24] <ChrischiO`GER> <-- linux n00b
[08:24] <onur> Tomcat_, thx. btw the forums are not searchable how should i suppose to find it out
[08:24] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, hehe, remove it completely from /etc/fstab then
[08:24] <acid2_> thoreauputic: thats on the backports server, right?
[08:24] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER: Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/winmac_fstab to make your windows and mac partions mount automatically
[08:24] <thoreauputic> acid2_: yep
[08:25] <acid2_> oki doki
[08:25] <ChrischiO`GER> wtf is fstab?
[08:25] <PurpleMotion> Seveas:  I spoke with my wife. She's buying me the o'reilley book for the lpi exams today
[08:25] <skalpel> how do i unmount a filesystem?
[08:25] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, did you mount it manually with the mount command?
[08:25] <ChrischiO`GER> <-- TOTAL Linux n00b
[08:25] <Seveas> skalpel, umount
[08:25] <PurpleMotion> i'm going to schedule the exam next week
[08:25] <ChrischiO`GER> i did
[08:25] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, then unmount it again
[08:25] <thoreauputic> ChrischiO`GER: it's /etc/fstab - the file that defines where filesystems will be mounted
[08:25] <Seveas> umount /dev/something
[08:25] <shinu> anyone know why i am not able to play a movie with mplayer but i can with totem player?
[08:25] <Seveas> where /dev/something is the thing you used in mount
[08:26] <onur> Tomcat_, also i realized it adds smt to .bashrc how ever this means the tomcat installation is not system wide but user wide
[08:26] <PurpleMotion> shinu:  codecs
[08:26] <skalpel> seveas: what does it mean if term says that the dev is busy?
[08:26] <PurpleMotion> shinu:  totem uses codecs in a plugin fashion.. mplayer has to compile them in
[08:26] <shinu> PurpleMotion: should i install codecs before mplayer?
[08:26] <topyli> shinu: perhaps you have totem-gstreamer and you have the codecs for gst but not for mplayer
[08:26] <Seveas> skalpel, it means that you still have some program open using files on it
[08:26] <PurpleMotion> you should install codecs then apt-get source -b mplayer-686
[08:26] <thoreauputic> PurpleMotion: erm, no that's not so
[08:26] <acid2_> hmmm, what about libfaad?
[08:26] <PurpleMotion> its not?
[08:27] <Seveas> or a terminal with the mountpoin as curent dir
[08:27] <PurpleMotion> this is how i understood it to be
[08:27] <thoreauputic> PurpleMotion: for instance w32codecs work fine with the ubuntu binaries of mplayer
[08:27] <shinu> topyli: but i did the same thing i did on this comp on anyther comp and it worked perfectly fine
[08:27] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - done
[08:27] <PurpleMotion> so then why did i recompile mplayer?
[08:27] <shinu> yeah, i have those w32codecs
[08:27] <thoreauputic> PurpleMotion: I have no idea
[08:28] <PurpleMotion> oh well, it's faster now either way ;)
[08:28] <topyli> shinu: it's weird but mplayer is a mystery anyway
[08:28] <ma3x> Why the hell black screen with blinking cursor shows when I close the lit of my laptop
[08:28] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, no type: wget http://ubuntulinux.nl/files/winmac_fstab && sudo bash winmac_fstab
[08:28] <Tomcat_> onur: A user that replied in the thread has posted a startup script for the system... I'm sure that will contain systemwide environment variables.
[08:28] <ChrischiO`GER> oO
[08:28] <ChrischiO`GER> whats this?
[08:28] <shinu> topyli: i very much like it 8)
[08:28] <PurpleMotion> shinu:  yeah, mplayer is nice
[08:28] <samu> whats the best gui ftp client?
[08:28] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, a little (already famous) script I wrote for automatic mounting of windows partitions
[08:28] <PurpleMotion> samu:  i rather like gftp
[08:29] <shinu> and guess what, i can open the movie with mplayer on my other comp but cant with ttem x)
[08:29] <samu> ive just been getting annoyed with gftp
[08:29] <shinu> totem*
[08:29] <Stern-> yo
[08:29] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - no, it shouldnt be mounted everytime
[08:29] <Seveas> oy
[08:29] <PurpleMotion> howso?
[08:29] <Amaranth> shinu: totem-xine?
[08:29] <Stern-> my install is stuck at 25% of installing repository
[08:29] <Stern-> apt
[08:29] <anacron> can someone help me installing some files to run stepmania?
[08:29] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, you can change that later
[08:29] <shinu> Amaranth: i guess just totem, i dont know, the one that comes with ubuntu
[08:29] <cefx> ideas? ;D
[08:29] <ma3x> anya nswer for me?
[08:29] <cefx> Amaranth: I'm formatting for the 32bit install :P
[08:29] <PurpleMotion> that's totem-gstreamer
[08:30] <shinu> it says: Could not open resource for writing
[08:30] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - just wanna know how I set the right to be read by nonsu on my mounted drive
[08:30] <Amaranth> shinu: if you want w32codecs support and all that you need totem-xine
[08:30] <anacron> i need libavformat.so file, which is not provided with ubuntu
[08:30] <PurpleMotion> try sudo apt-get install totem-xine
[08:30] <ma3x> when I close the LID of the laptop I get BSOD
[08:30] <topyli> shinu: ubuntu has two totems, with different backends
[08:30] <onur> Tomcat_, what about the apache connector jk, i have installed it but how do i configure them all ?
[08:30] <shinu> uh...
[08:30] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, that's what I said: add umask=0000 to the options field of mount or /etc/fstab
[08:30] <acid2_> Would someone mind posting a nice sources.lists ?
[08:30] <tigliona1bit> how do I get gkrellm to check mail on my gmail account?
[08:30] <acid2_> -s
[08:30] <SDFH_FreeBSD> guys whats the command to get the kubuntu desktop on ubuntu
[08:30] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, but you did not understand that, so I was trying to make it easier :)
[08:30] <shinu> i think i have just totem
[08:30] <PurpleMotion> acid2_:  I will
[08:30] <acid2_> PurpleMotion: thank you :)
[08:30] <Seveas> SDFH_FreeBSD, sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[08:30] <anacron> SDFH_FreeBSD: i suppose it's apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[08:31] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - but it should not be this way on ALL mounted drives but just at one
[08:31] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - is there no way to do with chmod??
[08:31] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, no
[08:31] <Tomcat_> onur: No idea about that... I have never installed that. Try searching the Ubuntu wiki and the Ubuntu forums, and if you can't find anything turn to Google or feel free to ask the channel again.
[08:31] <topyli> shinu: totet mis a dummy package that just depends on totem-xine
[08:31] <ChrischiO`GER> hm
[08:31] <Seveas> ntfs does not know a bot about that
[08:31] <Seveas> so you will have to specify it when mounting
[08:31] <rob_newbie> Hello First time using a tar file anyone able to help
[08:31] <PurpleMotion> acid2_:  http://pastebin.ubuntulinux.nl/903
[08:31] <shinu> topyli: oh...
[08:31] <acid2_> thank you :)
[08:32] <topyli> shinu: uhh. totem is...
[08:32] <acid2_> What is that last one?
[08:32] <anacron> rob_newbie: just ask, someone will answer
[08:32] <cefx> I restarted..hmm
[08:32] <PurpleMotion> the debian.neo.pl one gives you all kinds of kde window decos
[08:32] <ma3x> is anybody listening to me?
[08:32] <anacron> so anyone how to run stepmania?
[08:32] <acid2_> ah, no use for me then
[08:32] <PurpleMotion> right on
[08:33] <PurpleMotion> the rest will do you well, though
[08:33] <calamari> hi
[08:33] <rob_newbie> how do you complie a package from a tar file
[08:33] <acid2_> Yey, im all good now - thanks PurpleMotion !
[08:33] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - so if i change the accessrights of my mkdir made dir(where later a drive is mounted) doesnt work??
[08:33] <calamari> I tried to upgrade to Hoary using Synaptic, but it failed and now I'm missing like everything from my system
[08:33] <thoreauputic> ma3x: there's no such animal as BSOD in linux :)
[08:33] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, nope
[08:33] <calamari> I haven't rebooted yet
[08:33] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - why?  :)
[08:33] <anacron> rob_newbie: you have to extract tar first
[08:33] <calamari> someone please help me
[08:33] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, because it works different :)
[08:34] <ma3x> thoreauputic, I meant Black Screen of Death
[08:34] <DekaPink> Huh... Gimp doesn't seem to want to let me crop. :3
[08:34] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - damn WindowsThinking^^
[08:34] <Seveas> calamari, try again: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:34] <Seveas> calamari, or else: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[08:34] <PurpleMotion> rob^:  first unpack the tar file (tar zxfv file.tar.gz -or- tar jxfv file.tar.bz2), then (cd file-directory) then (./configure) then (make) then (sudo make install) -usually-
[08:34] <thoreauputic> rob_newbie: chances are you don't need to compile whatever it is...
[08:34] <eyequeue> ma3x:  alt-cltrl-f7
[08:34] <rob_newbie> anacron:  Ok sould I just do this on the desktop?
[08:34] <ar3ac> can you tell me if there is a unstable livecd ? with new kernel ?
[08:34] <Seveas> calamari, and: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[08:34] <ar3ac> i need at last the kernel 2.6.10
[08:34] <anacron> rob_newbie: do as PurpleMotion saod
[08:34] <shinu> any idea why ubuntu might kick me off gnome and put back the login screen? 0.o
[08:34] <anacron> said*
[08:35] <calamari> seveas: invalid operation "dist"
[08:35] <Seveas> calamari, try again: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:35] <ChrischiO`GER> How can i login on gnome as root?
[08:35] <eyequeue> as root?  eww
[08:35] <ChrischiO`GER> jap
[08:35] <anacron> shinu: have you used windows recently, sometimes ubuntu get's very angry if you do
[08:35] <ma3x> eyequeue, I figured that out, but why does the blackscreen show up with a blinking cursor?
[08:35] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, you should NEVER do that....
[08:35] <thoreauputic> rob_newbie: what are you wanting to compile? It might be in the repositories already
[08:36] <cefx> Seveas: What would I do to upgrade to -current?
[08:36] <cefx> The same thing you told calamari?
[08:36] <calamari> should I install packages without verfication (I had to use apt -f)
[08:36] <rob_newbie> cd file-directory?
[08:36] <eyequeue> ma3x:  my guess is that it's a security feature, semi-like a screenlock, but not as aggressive
[08:36] <Seveas> cefx, what do you mean>
[08:36] <shinu> anacron: er... damn... my parents always use windows :/
[08:36] <Seveas> ?
[08:36] <cefx> the amd64 install was much  much faster
[08:36] <shinu> anacron: xP
[08:36] <cefx> Seveas: Kernel upgrade
[08:36] <skalpel> does anyone else here use bootsplash?
[08:36] <cefx> to -current
[08:36] <rob_newbie> It is xmms
[08:36] <ma3x> eyequeue, does it happen to you too?
[08:36] <PurpleMotion> rob_newbie:  yeah, change to the directory that was created when you untar'd the source package
[08:36] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - whats the diffrence between loggin in as root in terminal and as root on gnome??  oO
[08:36] <calamari> yikes .. scrolling too fast
[08:36] <cefx> I'm installing 5.04 -- does that come with a -current kernel then?
[08:36] <calamari> cant read this in ircii
[08:36] <cefx> :)
[08:36] <skalpel> what is a .diff file?
[08:36] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, as root in X it is very easy to do damage
[08:36] <eyequeue> ma3x:  yes, it took some getting used to, but it's apparently normal
[08:36] <ar3ac> someone can help me ?
[08:37] <ar3ac> i need a live install cd with kernel 2.6.10 ?
[08:37] <anacron> shinu: so you have to choose, ubuntu or parents?
[08:37] <ma3x> eyequeue, u know how to disable it?
[08:37] <PurpleMotion> ChrischiO`GER:  because when you log into gnome it spawns about 20 or so processes.. all of these running uid=0 is a BAD thing
[08:37] <eyequeue> ma3x:  btw, sometimes it moves from f7 here to 710, still have not determined why, but experiment if f7 doesn't work
[08:37] <PurpleMotion> I'm all for having a root account, but I would _never_ log it into X
[08:37] <ChrischiO`GER> uid=0  ?
[08:37] <shinu> anacron: i have ubuntu on my laptop so it doesnt really matter xP
[08:37] <shinu> hm...
[08:37] <rob_newbie> Ok I am in the directory now
[08:37] <PurpleMotion> yeah, root is uid=0
[08:37] <anacron> shinu: keep it cool
[08:37] <eyequeue> ma3x:  no, i suspect it's in acpi-related packages somewhere
[08:37] <ChrischiO`GER> ah.. user ID^^
[08:38] <topyli> skalpel: it contains the differences between two or more files, so that the whole files don't have to be distributed again
[08:38] <shinu> my mplayer still gets stuck after finding this soundcard... ;.;
[08:38] <ma3x> ok eyequeue thanks for the info
[08:38] <eyequeue> ma3x:  np
[08:38] <calamari> I should file a bug report on that
[08:38] <shinu> anacron: *my* ubuntu works like wonder~
[08:38] <shinu> anacron: i think its something wrong with this comp ;)
[08:38] <skalpel> topyli: so that would be useful for making alterations to the kernel?
[08:38] <DekaPink> Hmmm... Anyone know where I might find a Ubuntu-themed splash for gimp? :3
[08:38] <anacron> shinu: well usually there is if it won't work :D
[08:39] <PurpleMotion> if there were one, dont u think ubuntu would have included it :D
[08:39] <shinu> :D
[08:39] <topyli> skalpel: yes, it's nicer to download a 100k diff file than a 30M kernel tarball :)
[08:39] <cefx> "be cool"
[08:39] <cefx> hehehe
[08:39] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - so how can i tell my drive it should be readable by nonsu when mounting it?? (without editing fstab (couse i dont know how to edit a file  -.-))
[08:39] <skalpel> topyli: what do you do with them? how do you applyu the changes?
[08:39] <PurpleMotion> load up gimp and make one :D
[08:39] <topyli> skalpel: you apply them with diff :)
[08:39] <topyli> man diff
[08:39] <cefx> ChrischiO`GER: vi /etc/fstab
[08:39] <skalpel> o
[08:39] <cefx> hehe
[08:39] <skalpel> ok
[08:39] <PurpleMotion> ChrischiO`GER:  learn :) it's not hard
[08:39] <shinu> which mplayer should i get? (apart from the nogui one)
[08:39] <cefx> or uh
[08:39] <DekaPink> PurpleMotion, I'm still rather bad with it... I don't think it would be very pretty. :D
[08:39] <skalpel> is it safe to do this?
[08:39] <cefx> in ubuntu it's vim isn't it?
[08:40] <ChrischiO`GER> narf
[08:40] <PurpleMotion> and dont do it via vi unless you're masochistic
[08:40] <shinu> 386? custom?
[08:40] <thoreauputic> ChrischiO`GER: editing fstab isn't really that difficult or scary you know :)
[08:40] <deprave> Razor-X: where is my gaim plugin for looking at irc chick's boobies?!
[08:40] <ChrischiO`GER> gnnaaaaa
[08:40] <cefx> thoreauputic: it is in FreeBSD.
[08:40] <cefx> ;D
[08:40] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, mount -t ntfs /dev/bla /mount/point -o umask=0000
[08:40] <PurpleMotion> vi/m is evil
[08:40] <skalpel> does anyoen in here use bootsplash?
[08:40] <Seveas> vim is good
[08:40] <thoreauputic> cefx: well, we aren't in freeBSD ;)
[08:40] <PurpleMotion> good and evil
[08:41] <ChrischiO`GER> THX thats all i wanted to know  ;)
[08:41] <cefx> Seveas: What's the difference of vi vs vim?
[08:41] <PurpleMotion> nano is your friend
[08:41] <PurpleMotion> hell, ee rocks the socks off vim
[08:41] <deprave> PurpleMotion : whazup
[08:41] <topyli> skalpel: i'd like to, but have been too busy to play with it. i'm on vacation you see ;-)
[08:41] <Choubaka> vim is usable.
[08:41] <PurpleMotion> sup deprave
[08:41] <PurpleMotion> seig heil
[08:41] <deprave> HAHA
[08:41] <deprave> he didn't do anything
[08:41] <skalpel> topyli: ok. i want to know how stable it is before i apply it. im assuming you apply the bootsplash .diff file to the kernel, right?
[08:41] <Seveas> cefx, on ubuntu vi is a symlink to vim
[08:41] <deprave> it's an inside joke
[08:41] <Seveas> k
[08:42] <Seveas> but that talk is not appreciated...
[08:42] <cefx> oh I see.
[08:42] <deprave> he is apologetic over it
[08:42] <deprave> thanks
[08:42] <topyli> skalpel: something like that. actually, patch may be the correct utility. diff is for creating diff files
[08:42] <PurpleMotion> yeah uhh sorry for whatever i did
[08:42] <deprave> hehe
[08:42] <cefx> What was that URL about the behaviour expected in #ubuntu?
[08:42] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - do i have to tell him that it is ntfs (-t ntfs) everytime a mount an ntfs?
[08:42] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, yup
[08:42] <deprave> cefx : www.lemonparty.org i think
[08:42] <skalpel> topyli: do you know when breezy will be released?
[08:42] <DekaPink> Huh... Has anyone tried installing the NeroLinux deb on Ubuntu? :3
[08:43] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - if i do not??
[08:43] <PurpleMotion> deprave:  do you know how to remove tattoos? i got this big number on my arm, suddenly....
[08:43] <topyli> skalpel: september
[08:43] <skalpel> i really like bootsplash graphics, but i do not want to go altering my kernel just yet
[08:43] <skalpel> ok
[08:43] <deprave> lol!
[08:43] <cefx> oh dear.
[08:43] <cefx> This is turning into chaos.
[08:43] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - cause did it   oO
[08:43] <PurpleMotion> skalpel:  splashy
[08:43] <thoreauputic> PurpleMotion: I guess a lot of people get offended by nazi references - even if they are intended as jokes
[08:43] <deprave> Razor-X are you here sir
[08:43] <cefx> ChrischiO`GER: Yes.
[08:43] <PurpleMotion> thoreauputic:  i guess so.
[08:43] <skalpel> purplemotion: ok
[08:44] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, mount may guess it
[08:44] <deprave> anyone here know of a way to view web cams on gaim via msn messenger and yahoo im?
[08:44] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - ok^^
[08:44] <Seveas> but I prefer to explicitely say it :)
[08:44] <PurpleMotion> but yaknow seig heil is nothing more than a statement of alleigance (I murdered that word)... they heil things allt he time in germany and it doesnt mean they're nazis
[08:44] <PurpleMotion> deprave:  gaim-vv
[08:44] <ChrischiO`GER> Seveas - and umask=0000 is the option for readable by everyone or what?
[08:45] <Choubaka> PurpleMotion: hint: allegiance.
[08:45] <deprave> PurpleMotion is that an application of some sort
[08:45] <Choubaka> :)
[08:45] <cefx> no
[08:45] <cefx> by nobody
[08:45] <Seveas> ChrischiO`GER, yup
[08:45] <ChrischiO`GER> h?
[08:45] <cefx> ChrischiO`GER: try =0222
[08:45] <cefx> Oh.
[08:45] <cefx> Seveas: that's bad though, -anyone- could fuck with him
[08:45] <PurpleMotion> deprave:  it's a dev branch of gaim that supports voice and video for the msn protocol, and will soon do the same for yahoo
[08:45] <cefx> pardon my language
[08:45] <cefx> :)
[08:45] <ChrischiO`GER> what is 0222??
[08:45] <cefx> read only
[08:46] <topyli> PurpleMotion: you even misspelled it. small wonder people are pissed ;-)
[08:46] <Seveas> PurpleMotion, I know the meaning, but it's so much abused by nazis and nazi-like people that the word triggers action quite easily
[08:46] <levander> There is a command to compare the contents (recursively) of two directories?
[08:46] <ph8> i have a total nub question, can anyone tell me the difference between 386 and 686?
[08:46] <ChrischiO`GER> readonly by who??
[08:46] <PurpleMotion> Seveas:  i'll concede that
[08:46] <cefx> everyone
[08:46] <levander> ph8: 686 is the pentium ii, 386 is the old intel 386, the oldest intel chip linux supports
[08:46] <skalpel> purplemotion: can you tell me what this means? dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of splashy:
[08:46] <skalpel>  splashy depends on libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-21); however:
[08:46] <skalpel>   Version of libc6 on system is 2.3.2.ds1-20ubuntu13.
[08:46] <ChrischiO`GER> hm? and 0000 is.. ?
[08:46] <MrMaDSeN> how do I mount what i see at smb://mediabox ?
[08:46] <svizzero> anyone knows a package for measuring cpu temperature on linux?
[08:47] <PurpleMotion> what version of splashy do you have?
[08:47] <PurpleMotion> cause mine didnt do that
[08:47] <cefx> read/write/etc
[08:47] <PurpleMotion> try: apt-get -f install
[08:47] <PurpleMotion> lemme see what version of splashy i have
[08:47] <skalpel> i have 1.5, the most recenet version
[08:47] <PurpleMotion> ii  splashy        0.1.5          A complete user-space boot splash system
[08:47] <thoreauputic> svizzero: lmsensors - but configuring it is a bit of a pain
[08:48] <PurpleMotion> hrmm
[08:48] <eyequeue> svizzero:  gkrellm
[08:48] <shadrach> can u use regular deb's with ubuntu?
[08:48] <PurpleMotion> try: apt-get -f install
[08:48] <ChrischiO`GER> cefx - by what? everybody?
[08:48] <PurpleMotion> does it remove splashy?
[08:48] <svizzero> eyequeue, does gkrellm display also the cpu temperature?
[08:48] <graabein> shadrach, i want to know this as well. or at least how to try them
[08:48] <cefx> Yes.
[08:48] <graabein> before i install
[08:48] <cefx> You don't wnat to write to NTFS though
[08:48] <cefx> that is a -bad- idea
[08:48] <eyequeue> svizzero:  mine displays both cpu and hdd temp here
[08:48] <shadrach> well, there are certain apps i want that I know are not in the ubuntu repos
[08:48] <rob_newbie> ok after I am in the directory that it was extracted to what do I do?
[08:48] <ChrischiO`GER> cefx - and what is the code for suonly?
[08:48] <shinu> should it make any difference whether i use mplayer in gnome or xfce4?
[08:48] <skalpel> purplemotion: i got the same arror using aptitude
[08:49] <topyli> shadrach: a deb is a deb. it depends on which system the package was built on. debian packages may or may not work -- better not use them
[08:49] <cefx> su only? um mount it with sudo and specify nothing
[08:49] <PurpleMotion> skalpel:  try: apt-get -f install
[08:49] <cefx> and only root will get it
[08:49] <ChrischiO`GER> hm  :/
[08:49] <skalpel> purplemotion: i did, i got the same error
[08:49] <PurpleMotion> does it remove splashy? or upgrade your library?
[08:49] <Seveas> topyli, a deb is a deb of course of course, and no one can talk to a deb of course, ....:)
[08:49] <thoreauputic> shinu: mplayer works fine in any window manger / desktop
[08:49] <shadrach> ok, so i guess ubuntu aint for me then
[08:49] <topyli> heh
[08:49] <skalpel> purplemotion: er, sorry i did not
[08:49] <eyequeue> svizzero:  i may have added some extra gkreallm-* packages too, browse through synaptic or aptitude to see if there are any you like, if you decide to install it
[08:49] <PurpleMotion> what command, exactly, are you entering?
[08:49] <skalpel> purplemotion: it is removing splashy now
[08:49] <PurpleMotion> ah
[08:49] <PurpleMotion> try
[08:49] <calamari> seveas: the apt-get dist-upgrade has finished.. do I need to do anything else?>
[08:49] <kemik> PurpleMotion:  i think its "sieg heil" not "seig heil"
[08:49] <shinu> thoreauputic: well... it seems to fail with both my configurations under gnome
[08:50] <Seveas> calamari, yes reboot
[08:50] <PurpleMotion> dpkg -i --force-all splashy
[08:50] <shinu> thoreauputic: though on my laptop it works very fine under xfce4
[08:50] <svizzero> eyequeue, k thx
[08:50] <calamari> seveas: okay.. there was another command you mentioned but I didn't do it yeytdoes it matter?
[08:50] <skalpel> purplemotion: dpkg: error processing splashy (--install):
[08:50] <skalpel>  cannot access archive: No such file or directory
[08:50] <deprave> PurpleMotion ok thanks
[08:50] <thoreauputic> shinu: hmm - dunno then
[08:50] <shinu> damn
[08:50] <deprave> PurpleMotion can i apt-get it?
[08:50] <shinu> ok
[08:50] <Seveas> calamari, apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:50] <PurpleMotion> kemik:  whatever it was a joke and you people have killed it, resurrected it, killed it again, and crucified it
[08:50] <shinu> going to install xfce4 on this comp
[08:50] <Seveas> it does matter a lot
[08:50] <PurpleMotion> so let it go
[08:50] <thoreauputic> shinu: here it seems OK in any WM
[08:50] <shinu> thanks a lot for your help ^^
[08:50] <Chaotic_Shield> hmm....
[08:50] <graabein> can anyone tell me which of these (i have 0.4*) running and i want to get 0.5*
[08:50] <graabein> http://tuxcmd.sourceforge.net/download.php
[08:50] <PurpleMotion> deprave:  i doubt it
[08:51] <shinu> thoreauputic: seems my bad luck keeps following me around... :P
[08:51] <shinu> thoreauputic: though i prefer xfce anyways xP
[08:51] <shinu> k, bye
[08:51] <ChrischiO`GER> juhu  i worked  :)
[08:51] <Chaotic_Shield> bah
[08:52] <PurpleMotion> deprave:  it is installable via cvs though
[08:52] <PurpleMotion> deprave:  gaim-vv.sf.net
[08:52] <ChrischiO`GER> *it
[08:52] <kemik> PurpleMotion:  of futurecrew ?
[08:52] <skalpel> purplemotion: any ideas on how to install splashy? i cannot use synaptic either
[08:52] <Chaotic_Shield> any way to update locate db?
[08:52] <Chaotic_Shield> locate -u or somesuch?
[08:53] <PurpleMotion> skalpel:  dpkg -i --force-all splashy.deb
[08:53] <rob_newbie> I am working on installing xmms from a tarball   what am I suppost to type ./configure in??
[08:53] <kemik> Chaotic_Shield:  sudo locate -u
[08:53] <thoreauputic> Chaotic_Shield: sudo apdatedb
[08:53] <kemik> Chaotic_Shield:  try the man-pages ;)
[08:53] <PurpleMotion> although i get no such errors with splashy
[08:53] <PurpleMotion> odd
[08:53] <thoreauputic> Chadza: sorry typo sudo updatedb
[08:53] <skalpel> purplemotion: dpkg: error processing splashy.deb (--install):
[08:53] <skalpel>  cannot access archive: No such file or directory
[08:53] <kemik> rob_newbie:  apt-get install xmms instead, always the better option
[08:53] <calamari> seveas: thanks a lot for your help, btw :)
[08:53] <PurpleMotion> well you're gonna have to change it to the actual name of the .deb file
[08:54] <ChrischiO`GER> how can i make a link to my mounted drive on my desktop?
[08:54] <skalpel> purplemotion: k, i did =) forgive me, im new to linux
[08:54] <PurpleMotion> it's all good
[08:54] <kemik> rob_newbie:  but concerning your question, you open a terminalwindow, goto the folder where you've unpacked the tarball and type ./configure
[08:54] <skalpel> purpemotion: k, that worked. how do i configure it now?
[08:54] <ChrischiO`GER> dont tell me to make a dir and mount it there..
[08:54] <rob_newbie> Ahh K
[08:54] <noname> yay
[08:54] <PurpleMotion> skalpel:  man splashy... alternatively take a look in /etc/splashy
[08:55] <rob_newbie> so what is better about apt anyway
[08:55] <PurpleMotion> particularly at /etc/splashy/config.xml
[08:55] <kemik> rob_newbie:  everything
[08:55] <PurpleMotion> I heart apt
[08:55] <Chaotic_Shield> ChrischiO`GER, make a link that points to wherever you mounted the drive to.
[08:55] <ChrischiO`GER> how?
[08:55] <thoreauputic> ChrischiO`GER: middle mouse button drag the mount point icon to the desktop and choose to make a link, if I remember correctly
[08:55] <PurpleMotion> okay, im gonna go watch herbie... talk to you guys later
[08:56] <skalpel> purplemotion: thank you for your help
[08:56] <kemik> rob_newbie:  only time you wanna compile stuff is when it's not available as a .deb package or in the apt-repositories ;)
[08:56] <PurpleMotion> netime, man
[08:56] <ChrischiO`GER> ah ok
[08:56] <ChrischiO`GER> can i do links manually too???
[08:56] <rob_newbie> kemik:  LOL well I found it in a deb but am equally lost there too
[08:56] <ChrischiO`GER> make one and then specify a target?
[08:57] <kemik> rob_newbie:  try "sudo apt-get install xmms" (without the quotes)
[08:57] <kemik> rob_newbie:  installing a .deb package is: "dpkg -i name.deb"
[08:57] <ChrischiO`GER> like chaotic told
[08:57] <thoreauputic> ChrischiO`GER: sure, you can do a link in terminal with ln -s (see man ln )
[08:57] <ChrischiO`GER> hm
[08:57] <topyli> rob_newbie: really, you should use apt-get since xmms is in the ubuntu universe
[08:58] <J_P> I not like users have root access, then I remove all from admin group and I change root password. But  when I try change some preferences gnome show me one window for enter with user passowrd. Is possible change for accept root password for change preferences ?
[08:58] <ChrischiO`GER> but i could also make a dir and mount my drive there??
[08:58] <rob_newbie> hmmm
[08:58] <topyli> skalpel: the splashy deb fails here too. i guess i'll build a new one
[08:58] <ChrischiO`GER> ..on my desktop?
[08:58] <rob_newbie> I am so new to this
[08:59] <rob_newbie> I like it but Am confused
[08:59] <loorni> How can i erase my PPPoE connection
[08:59] <loorni> ?
[08:59] <kemik> rob_newbie:  im assuming you've not touched the /etc/apt/sources.list file, a suggestion is to edit that file and remove the # infront of the universe/multiverse repositories, in a termina type "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[08:59] <Seveas> J_P, whoah you're not making sense there. Can you rephrase that question please
[08:59] <J_P> Seveas: ok!
[08:59] <thoreauputic> ChrischiO`GER: you can mount filesystems on the desktop if you wish, yes -but making links is the approved/better way
[08:59] <kemik> rob_newbie:  after that is done, type "sudo apt-get update" "sudo apt-get install xmms"
[08:59] <DekaPink> NeroLinux is pretty. :3
[09:00] <Chaotic_Shield> thoreauputic, you know where apt-get installs programs? /usr/bin?
[09:00] <Chaotic_Shield> nvm.
[09:00] <rob_newbie> kemik:  ????? brb
[09:00] <Chaotic_Shield> it is.
[09:00] <kemik> DekaPink:  nerolinux is ok, but growisofs works for .img files which Nero does not :)
[09:00] <thoreauputic> Chaotic_Shield: to see where a package is installed type dpkg -L <package>
[09:00] <skalpel> topyli: i got it to work using purplemotions last command recommendation, i now have it installed
[09:00] <kemik> rob_newbie:  i'm leaving in about 5minutes
[09:00] <ChrischiO`GER> and links stay on my desk after reboot .. and mounts i have to make evertime new if they are not written in fstab???
[09:01] <DekaPink> kemik, not a problem for me yet... Since I've never had to use any .img files. :3
[09:01] <J_P> Seveas: I click system->admin-> config_my_init_session and show message "Please enter your password for run gdmsetup". but i like password accept is only root password..
[09:01] <kemik> DekaPink:  lucky you;) just remember that growisofs works for them aswell when the time comes ;)
[09:01] <topyli> skalpel: the comment about you using an incorrect filename?
[09:01] <thoreauputic> ChrischiO`GER: that's what /etc/fstab is for: so you don't have to manually mount stuff all the time if you don't want to
[09:01] <Chaotic_Shield> I heart locate -ucl 0
[09:02] <ChrischiO`GER> ok
[09:02] <J_P> Seveas: i change root password using #passwd root; and i get out all users from admin group. Becouse i not like users have access to suso
[09:02] <DekaPink> kemik: What would one need .img files for? :)
[09:02] <J_P> Seveas: understand now ?
[09:02] <Seveas> J_P, yep
[09:02] <skalpel> topyli: yes
[09:02] <kemik> DekaPink:  DVD and CD imagefiles
[09:03] <DekaPink> kemik: Okey dokey. :3
[09:03] <Seveas> J_P, you can specify that in /etc/sudoers
[09:03] <J_P> Seveas: how i do for i write root password for setup preferences and not user password ?
[09:03] <skalpel> topyli: use dpkg -i --force-all splashy.deb substituting splashy.deb for the package name
[09:03] <Seveas> J_P, that file is just a pain in the ass to edit
[09:03] <catolh> Is the amsn site down?
[09:03] <Seveas> hang on
[09:03] <kemik> J_P:  only edit sudoers with "visudo"
[09:03] <skalpel> topyli: it worked over here
[09:03] <kemik> it's a picky file, and you DONT want to mess it up
[09:03] <J_P> Seveas: humm
[09:04] <topyli> skalpel: ahh, force. i guess i'd rather build from the debian source
[09:04] <Seveas> J_P, try this command: EDITOR=gedit sudo visudo
[09:04] <DekaPink> I decided to get nerolinux to see if it would work for better than gnomebaker and k3b, which always error right at the end of writing a CD. :3
[09:04] <Seveas> J_P, that opens an editor window
[09:04] <onur> I tried to add the repos in http://ubuntuguide.org/#extrarepositories but they dont seem work furthermore referring that page i am trying to install flashplayer with sudo apt-get install flashplayer-mozilla but it says theres no such package, am i doing something wrong ?
[09:04] <Chaotic_Shield> http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/?t=archives&date=2005-08-01 <--- HAHAHAHAH
[09:04] <Seveas> J_P, did that work?
[09:04] <ohay> can someone help me with something? I've just installed Ubuntu 5.04 on a machine which already has others distros and selected the existing /home partition as Ubuntu's home partition
[09:05] <thoreauputic> onur: did you run sudo apt-get update after editing the file?
[09:05] <topyli> onur: yes, you're getting help from a page that's incorrect :)
[09:05] <Chaotic_Shield> ohay, well that wasn't very smart was it?
[09:05] <ohay> the problem is that it doesn't allow writing on /home, and I can't understand why
[09:05] <J_P> Seveas: yes, but i not understand how do now for accept only root password ? becouse root are in /etc/sudoers
[09:05] <onur> thoreauputic, no i'll do right now
[09:05] <onur> topyli, are u sure ?
[09:05] <topyli> ohay: your user id is different on different systems
[09:06] <topyli> onur: no. but the guide is known to be wrong sometimes
[09:06] <Seveas> J_P, hang on :)
[09:06] <thoreauputic> ohay: probably your user has a different uid on the other distros
[09:06] <Seveas> J_P, search for the line that starts with Defaults:
[09:06] <Seveas> paste that line in here
[09:06] <ohay> topyli: but I'm using diferent users
[09:06] <onur> topyli, but it mentioned to run update, somehow i missed it, my fault it was
[09:07] <Chaotic_Shield> anyone know where to get more login themes?
[09:07] <topyli> ohay: hmm., well that's different
[09:07] <topyli> onur: oh, that happens too :)
[09:07] <Seveas> Chaotic_Shield, art.gnome.org / gnome-look.org
[09:07] <J_P> Seveas: # Defaults
[09:07] <J_P> Defaults        !lecture,tty_tickets,!fqdn
[09:07] <shinu> oh yes, i have another question 8)
[09:07] <calamari> hi
[09:07] <Seveas> J_P good
[09:07] <ohay> since Ubuntu doesn't come with an enabled root acount I'm trying to create a folder for my user
[09:07] <Seveas> you need to change that line
[09:07] <shinu> how do i put xfce4 as my default wm?
[09:07] <J_P> Seveas: for waht ?
[09:07] <calamari> I've upgraded to Hoary, and I lost all my menus from Warty .. can I get them back?
[09:07] <J_P> for what ?
[09:07] <Seveas> Defaults        !lecture,tty_tickets,!fqdn,rootpw
[09:08] <Seveas> that
[09:08] <ohay> just by typing mkdir user_name
[09:08] <Seveas> so add ,rootpw
[09:08] <J_P> Seveas: ok, goin to test
[09:08] <thoreauputic> shinu: in the login screen when you select it from Sessions, it should ask you if you want it as default
[09:08] <Seveas> J_P good luck :)
[09:08] <Seveas> J_P, but!!!
[09:08] <thoreauputic> shinu: when you login
[09:08] <catolh> i just got this error configuring amsn cvs.. "checking tcl build dir... configure: error: Unable to find Tcl directory or Tcl package is not tcl-dev
[09:08] <catolh> ".. anyone know what might be wrong?
[09:08] <shinu> thoreauputic: k, will try that one
[09:08] <Seveas> keep your user in that file!!
[09:08] <Seveas> otherwise it will not work :)
[09:09] <Spudchat> allright guys one more question
[09:09] <Spudchat> iroffer can be installed in ubuntu correct?
[09:09] <calamari> I've upgraded to Hoary, and I lost all my menus from Warty .. can I get them back?
[09:09] <J_P> Seveas: what ?
[09:09] <J_P> Seveas: not work.. :-(
[09:10] <Seveas> J_P if you remove users or groups from that file it will not work, users still need to be in there in order to be able to run sudo
[09:10] <shammy> hello, i've been trying to install linux on this system for a very long time, unsuccessfully. the problem is the ati video card, and getting drivers to work with it and a proper xserver config. last night I downloaded damn small linux and burned it to a cd as a livecd, and it works perfectly. Is there anyway I can use this to help figure out how to get Ubuntu to work?
[09:10] <AlexBO> hello evrybody. I've a strange problem.I have copied some files from a cd and now i can't unmount it. "Device is busy": that's impossible! i've fusered it too: nothing.how can i do?
[09:10] <ohay> I can't remember now, but what's the command for changing the owner of a file/folder?
[09:10] <Seveas> J_P, and one more thing: changes become effective only after you closed the editor. simply saving the file is not enough
[09:10] <Seveas> ohay, chown
[09:10] <J_P> Seveas: ok, i only remove user in /etc/group in admin group
[09:11] <shinu> thoreauputic: ok thanks a lot 8)
[09:11] <shinu> k.
[09:11] <J_P> Seveas: i need restart X ?
[09:11] <Seveas> J_P, unfortunately users must be in the admin group to be able to run sudo
[09:11] <shinu> gnights people ^^
[09:11] <thoreauputic> shammy: dsl uses a very basic x-server, not xorg: to get a similar effect you could select the vesa driver in ubuntu
[09:11] <ohay> Seveas: and does it have any parameters like the three permission numbers?
[09:11] <milwatts> hey ppl
[09:11] <shinu> thanks a lot for your help
[09:11] <Seveas> ohay, chown new_owner filename
[09:11] <milwatts> where do i get a print version installation guide of ubuntu?
[09:11] <J_P> Seveas: but i cannot give super user permission for tht user...
[09:12] <Jakestah> I am starting to install ubuntu for the first time and I downloaded the AMD64 installer and it told me my CPU doesn't support long mode and to get a 32bit distro. My friend told me to try the Intelx86 Install but when I burn that ISO to a disk it doesn't read it. It just says it's a blank cd. What is it I should do?
[09:12] <Seveas> J_P, is that user in the admin group?
[09:12] <J_P> Seveas: yes
[09:12] <J_P> Seveas: sorry, now not are mor
[09:12] <shammy> thoreauputic: how do I select the vesa driver?
[09:12] <J_P> Seveas: i get out all user in admin group
[09:12] <thoreauputic> shammy: of course the vesa driver won't give you anything approaching the potential performance of a dedicated driver
[09:12] <Seveas> J_P, if the user is not in the admin group, he cannot run sudo
[09:12] <shinu> gnights
[09:13] <Seveas> J_P, or you must add the user to /etc/sudoers
[09:13] <wabble> anybody with raid1 setup on sil3112 chip here? Wondering about installing the raid1 during install or after.. how to?
[09:13] <shammy> thoreauputic: but atleast it is something, that i can use until i figure out getting the card working
[09:13] <J_P> Seveas: sill be testing..
[09:13] <thoreauputic> shammy: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select it
[09:13] <Razor-X> Seveas: I see that doing complex tables in LaTeX is a pretty big pain
[09:13] <shammy> thoreauputic: ok thanks
[09:13] <thoreauputic> shammy: yeah, it's a starting point
[09:13] <Seveas> Razor-X, even simple tables are a pain :)
[09:13] <Jakestah> Would anybody mind helping me installing. I'm having issues : (
[09:13] <Razor-X> is there some sort of better environment for tables than tabular? or does it come with a fit-to-page thingie?
[09:13] <Razor-X> Seveas: well, ok, but it's more of a pain than usual ;)
[09:13] <Seveas> there is tabularx
[09:14] <Seveas> that is one with wrapping
[09:14] <Razor-X> ahhh, thank god ;)
[09:14] <Seveas> :D
[09:14] <Razor-X> any different syntax from what I already have?
[09:14] <calamari> is there any way to get my old Warty icons back.. the Hoary icons suck
[09:14] <Seveas> tabularx is a different package
[09:14] <oris_wolfbane> hey guys
[09:14] <Seveas> google CPAN for instructions :)
[09:14] <Razor-X> I mean, some of my lines look good, but the rest are chopped off at the wrong places, and it looks like shit
[09:14] <Razor-X> Seveas: mmmkay ;)
[09:14] <oris_wolfbane> is thera command to reload all the printers/ redo hot plug
[09:14] <milwatts> kubuntu or ubuntu installation is similar?
[09:14] <Seveas> oris_wolfbane, reboot :)
[09:15] <Razor-X> err, CTAN Seveas ;)
[09:15] <Seveas> milwatts, yes
[09:15] <PM-Mewvee> ive come to the conclusion that its not my codecs or players, these two mp4's are both bad
[09:15] <Seveas> Razor-X, ehrm, true :)
[09:15] <milwatts> Seveas thnx :)
[09:15] <milwatts> brb
[09:15] <oris_wolfbane> seveas thats the problem in middle of a huuuuuge compile and dont want to stop
[09:16] <Seveas> oris_wolfbane, then wait for the compile to finish :)
[09:16] <Chaotic_Shield> lol
[09:16] <Chaotic_Shield> is there a  way to refresh hotplug though?
[09:16] <oris_wolfbane> seveas, its already been going for 9 hours!
[09:16] <Seveas> oris_wolfbane, there is invoke-rc.d hotplug restart
[09:16] <PurpleMotion> yeah
[09:16] <calamari> please anyone.. where are  my Warty menus?
[09:16] <PurpleMotion> killall -1 hotplug
[09:16] <PurpleMotion> or
[09:16] <oris_wolfbane> seveas, thanxs
[09:16] <Seveas> oris_wolfbane, wtf are you compiling? KDE?
[09:16] <calamari> I need stuff off them that Hoary screwed over
[09:16] <PurpleMotion>  /etc/init.d/hotplug restart
[09:16] <oris_wolfbane> seaves, openembedded
[09:17] <MartenH> lo all.
[09:17] <Mrk> Hello
[09:17] <Seveas> oris_wolfbane, is that simulator or SDK?
[09:17] <adiabatic> What's the proper way to run a program once a day in Ubuntu? I'm used to using /etc/periodic, but I haven't found it in my install nor through synaptic
[09:17] <oris_wolfbane> the pakages
[09:17] <Seveas> adiabatic, cron
[09:17] <thoreauputic> calamari: I wonder if when you upgraded you didn't have the ubuntu-desktop metapackage installed?
[09:17] <Razor-X> Seveas: when specifying tabularx's width. do I specify it in points? is there any way to specify the whole page minus margins?
[09:17] <PurpleMotion> adiabatic:  /etc/cron.daily
[09:17] <adiabatic> thanks
[09:17] <Razor-X> I really don't want to use a spreadsheeting tool, because LaTeX looks so good ;)
[09:17] <Seveas> Razor-X, ENOCLUE, never used it myself :)
[09:17] <calamari> thoreauputic: I did apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:18] <Razor-X> Seveas: ahhh, ok, ;)
[09:18] <thoreauputic> calamari: OK
[09:18] <Jakestah> Can someone help me Install ubuntu? It's my first time
[09:18] <Seveas> Jakestah, what's the problem?
[09:18] <Jakestah> I am starting to install ubuntu for the first time and I downloaded the AMD64 installer and it told me my CPU doesn't support long mode and to get a 32bit distro. My friend told me to try the Intelx86 Install but when I burn that ISO to a disk it doesn't read it. It just says it's a blank cd. What is it I should do?
[09:18] <Jakestah> By the way I have an AMD 3000+ Processor
[09:18] <Seveas> Jakestah, hmm, are you sure the cd is burnt right (ie: can you see files on it in windows?)
[09:18] <Jakestah> No I can't
[09:19] <thoreauputic> Jakestah: did you burn the CD as an iso image?
[09:19] <Jakestah> I tried reburning like 5 times with different programs
[09:19] <calamari> thoreauputic: so I've lost my menus completely then?
[09:19] <Jakestah> Yes I did
[09:19] <Seveas> Jakestah, maybe the .iso file is nad
[09:19] <Seveas> bad*
[09:19] <Jakestah> Maybe.
[09:19] <Seveas> check the md5 sum
[09:19] <Jakestah> Ok wheres that at?
[09:19] <thoreauputic> calamari: I don't know, sorry
[09:19] <shammy> thoreauputic: what was the command to reconfig xserver? I usually use xorgcfg -textmode but it doesn't give the option to use vesa.
[09:19] <Seveas> !md5sum
[09:19] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, Seveas
[09:19] <hammer3008> can anyone help me with installing ubuntu...i am now using xp
[09:20] <thoreauputic> shammy:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:20] <shammy> thanks
[09:20] <Jakestah> Thanks!
[09:20] <Razor-X> Seveas: do you know how much space you have without the margins on a LaTeX letterpaper ?
[09:20] <Jakestah> !md5sum
[09:20] <ubotu> Jakestah: I give up, what is it?
[09:20] <hammer3008> and tell me why i should install ubuntu will it run faster.
[09:21] <thoreauputic> hammer3008: no spyware, no viruses, complete freedom to do as you wish with the OS ...
[09:21] <Razor-X> hammer3008: Linux in general will run faster, your network speeds can become faster (my Linux box seems to get more throughput from the same connection versus the Windows equilavent), it's more powerful than Windows, and almost everything is no cost
[09:22] <Razor-X> you also have the advantages of an almost virus-free environment, and an adware/spyware-free environment
[09:22] <popey> ..and a warm fuzzy feeling inside
[09:22] <Razor-X> yes that too ;)
[09:22] <Razor-X> and you get to learn something -- although I suspect that's more of a detractor for most ;)
[09:23] <hammer3008> can you still use torrents on linux
[09:23] <thoreauputic> and you get to make rude jestures in the direction of Redmond *grin*
[09:23] <wabble> i cant get raid1 to work on install and get error 18 from grub, anybody?
[09:23] <popey> download torrents? yes
[09:23] <thoreauputic> *gestures
[09:23] <calamari> how do I edit my menus.. is it Applications:/// ?
[09:23] <calamari> (that's not working(
[09:23] <hammer3008> ok now how do i install it the file that i downloaded is alittle bigger than 2gigs
[09:23] <thoreauputic> hammer3008: torrents were an open source invention
[09:24] <hammer3008> and i dont know what to put on cd
[09:24] <popey> install what?
[09:24] <thoreauputic> hammer3008: 2 Gigs ? Was it a DVD or something?
[09:24] <popey> it may be multiple ISOs
[09:24] <popey> fedora do that with their torrents
[09:24] <hammer3008> i tried to put the launch on a cd and reboot with the cd
[09:25] <popey> one torrent, 4 isos
[09:25] <hammer3008> i got it from the ubuntu site
[09:25] <popey> what files do you have?
[09:25] <popey> are they .iso files?
[09:25] <BobaFett> Hey guys, anyone knows what 'gst-register' is? i can't run rhythmbox because of a 'scheduler' issue :(
[09:26] <Razor-X> back
[09:26] <uber_newber> can sum1 please help me install my toshiba usb fdd kit
[09:26] <Razor-X> hammer3008: download torrents? hah
[09:26] <thoreauputic> BobaFett: have you run ' gst-register0.8 ' ?
[09:26] <hammer3008> what is so funny
[09:26] <Razor-X> a great majority of torrents around the internet are Linux isos
[09:26] <uber_newber> can sum1 please help me install my toshiba usb fdd kit, im running ubuntu 5.04
[09:26] <hammer3008> i didnt know that
[09:26] <Razor-X> most of the larger torrents are large Linux distributions
[09:26] <wabble> and the rest is movies and such
[09:27] <Razor-X> exactly
[09:27] <Razor-X> ;)
[09:27] <BobaFett> thoreauputic: Nopes, but tried just now and I get the 'command not found' thingie from the bash :(
[09:27] <BobaFett> thoreauputic: what's that? i've never had that problem before :(
[09:27] <popey> it's gst-register-0.8
[09:27] <popey> note the extra minus sign
[09:27] <thoreauputic> BobaFett: hmm - it should be there - try typing  gst-reg <tab>
[09:28] <thoreauputic> popey: ah yes you are right
[09:28] <catolh> is the amsn that supports webcam in ubuntu's repository?
[09:28] <BobaFett> thoreauputic: I just ran gst-register-0.8 and it seems to be doing something :)
[09:28] <thoreauputic> BobaFett: sorry my bad
[09:28] <thoreauputic> popey: thanks
[09:28] <popey> catolh: i don't think it does
[09:28] <popey> np
[09:28] <catolh> popey, ok, so i need to install from cvs?
[09:28] <popey> dunno, i use gaim
[09:28] <wabble> so is there anybody here who knows installing a raid1 set via the ubuntuinstaller now? sil3112
[09:28] <BobaFett> thoreauputic: I got 'loaded 148 plugins with 490 features'...and rhythmbox runs again! :)
[09:29] <popey> wabble: yes
[09:29] <popey> wabble: i did it yesterday
[09:29] <thoreauputic> BobaFett: :)
[09:29] <popey> wabble: what you wanna know?
[09:29] <BobaFett> Thanks a bunch, guys! :) :)
[09:29] <wabble> popey, howto

[09:29] <icewt> catolh, it is
[09:29] <thoreauputic> BobaFett: you're welcome
[09:29] <Razor-X> uber_newber: what's a fdd kit?
[09:29] <hammer3008> those are tghe names of the files and folders that i have
[09:29] <popey> wabble: i used boot: server-expert
[09:29] <uber_newber> a floppy disk drive
[09:29] <catolh> icewt, what version is it?
[09:30] <uber_newber> cuz i dont have one built into my laptop
[09:30] <Razor-X> uber_newber: so, it's a USB Floppy Drive?
[09:30] <Razor-X> ;)

[09:30] <wabble> popey, ok.. i just used the server, but you do it from the manual pratitioning tool?
[09:30] <popey> wabble: yes
[09:30] <uber_newber> Razor-X: correct
[09:30] <Razor-X> have you tried ``hotplug'', uber_newber ?
[09:30] <crimsun> hammer3008: any reason you keep pasting that?
[09:30] <jipitore> in first time sorry for my english
[09:30] <popey> crimsun: he has downloaded an ubuntu iso and wants to know how to install
[09:30] <Madpilot> hammer3008: you don't open the ISO, you just burn the whole thing to a CD as an ISO
[09:30] <Razor-X> hammer3008: if you want to check the integrity of your CD, don't paste that here, check the md5sum of the CD
[09:30] <uber_newber> Razor-X: i dont even know what hotplug is
[09:30] <icewt> catolh, er.. or maybe it isn't a versiont that supports webcam, don't know.
[09:30] <popey> Crane: i asked what was in the iso
[09:30] <uber_newber> Razor-X: im a complete newb
[09:31] <Razor-X> uber_newber: in a terminal type in ``hotplug''
[09:31] <uber_newber> k
[09:31] <jipitore> anybody was configured a tv card with chip conexant 878
[09:31] <jipitore> ?
[09:31] <Razor-X> oh wow, my new headphones are incredible
[09:31] <icewt> catolh, http://packages.ubuntu.com/hoary/x11/amsn
[09:31] <thoreauputic> hammer3008: I'm not sure you have the right download there... most people download the CD iso for the installation CD
[09:31] <wabble> popey, so how do i set it up? i set up the scsi2 as a raid disk and copy the content from scsi1?
[09:31] <popey> wabble: no
[09:31] <popey> wabble: you have two disks the same yes?
[09:31] <Razor-X> thoreauputic: you want to get the iso, and then burn the iso onto the CD using a burning program that supports ISOs
[09:32] <popey> wabble: create two partitions, one on each disk
[09:32] <wabble> popey, yes
[09:32] <Razor-X> (which is the majority of burning programs out there, free or not)
[09:32] <popey> wabble: that are the same size
[09:32] <wabble> both primarys?
[09:32] <popey> wabble: then there's an option at the top of the partitioner to create raid
[09:32] <hammer3008> the whole thing is too big what do i download to the cd
[09:32] <Madpilot> hammer3008: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto <-- has info on burning Ubuntu ISOs
[09:32] <hammer3008> i have nero
[09:32] <thoreauputic> Razor-X: I assume that was meant for hammer3008 ?
[09:32] <popey> wabble: you create an md device, it's pretty simple from there
[09:32] <popey> then select the partition (the raid one that gets created) and make it /
[09:33] <thoreauputic> !download
[09:33] <ubotu> I heard download is get Ubuntu LiveCD & install ISOs at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/download/ and if you need information on burning ISOs, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[09:33] <thoreauputic> hammer3008: ^^^
[09:33] <wabble> popey, but the partitions i create.. do i set them as primarys?
[09:33] <Madpilot> hammer3008: it shouldn't be too big. the Ubuntu install is 586Mb, the live CD is 625Mb roughly
[09:33] <popey> ummm, it's all getting kinda hazy now
[09:33] <popey> i just created one big partition
[09:33] <wabble> popey, i have to create two "physical volume for raid"?
[09:33] <Razor-X> thoreauputic: yeah, it was
[09:33] <popey> yes
[09:33] <wabble> popey, ok
[09:34] <Razor-X> hammer3008: then use nero to open the ISO file
[09:34] <wabble> popey, do i enable the bootable flag on any of the drives?
[09:34] <popey> can't remember
[09:34] <wabble> ok
[09:34] <Razor-X> go to Nero Burning Rom, hit the ``Open'' button, now in the filetypes drop box, select ``Image files (*.iso) and open the iso
[09:34] <Razor-X> (if you don't know how, that is)
[09:35] <calamari> how do I edit my menus?
[09:35] <thoreauputic> !smeg
[09:35] <ubotu> well, smeg is a Simple Menu Editor for GNOME. Get it at http://www.realistanew.com/projects/smeg/ or from backports.
[09:35] <thoreauputic> calamari: ^^^
[09:35] <Razor-X> and, calamari, thank Amaranth after that ;)
[09:35] <Razor-X> (since he made it)
[09:36] <thoreauputic> indeed
[09:37] <wabble> popey, think i got it figured out. Thanks for the help, hope i wont see the error 18 from grub anymore :)
[09:38] <calamari> thanks Amaranth .. but I don't see any comment by you :)
[09:38] <wabble> popey, hold on. it crashed haha

[09:41] <nox> catolh, sudo apt-get install cvs?
[09:41] <crimsun> calamari: not in Hoary, no.
[09:41] <samu> why does the users command make it seem like theres three of me logged in?
[09:42] <calamari> crimsun: is this a bug or on purpose?
[09:42] <Distro^Junkie> is the latest kubuntu buggy or stable ?
[09:42] <Seveas> samu, you probably have 2 terminals open :)
[09:42] <crimsun> calamari: on purpose.
[09:42] <speel> on purpose to make us all mad
[09:42] <Seveas> Distro^Junkie, Kubuntu Hoary is rock solid
[09:42] <nox> samu, gnome runs on its own user
[09:42] <calamari> no wonder my menus are gone :(
[09:42] <speel> lol
[09:42] <Distro^Junkie> ok Seveas
[09:42] <Camo> anyone use the I386 liveCD yet? how fast does it start on somewhere around P3-P4 processor?
[09:42] <samu> oh, so its like i log in to the system another time for every terminal?
[09:43] <Seveas> Camo, a few minutes (much too long, it's being worked on)
[09:43] <Camo> k.. thx
[09:43] <speel> wow 1st time ive seen a real op in here
[09:43] <Camo> thats alot of people for just 1 person to be OP
[09:43] <Camo> make me op ^_^
[09:44] <linukso> Seveas: is it possible to remove lvm, raid and evm from boot?

[09:45] <LasseL> uber_newber, try the System > Preferences menu first :)
[09:46] <Camo> <3 ubuntu
[09:46] <zAo^> agree ^^
[09:46] <uber_newber> Lassel: tried that already but thanx :)
[09:46] <jipitore> anybody was configured a tv card in ubuntu?
[09:46] <LasseL> jipitore, I am trying :)
[09:46] <jipitore> and?
[09:47] <john_> hi everybody
[09:47] <LasseL> jipitore, mine worked with xawtv out of the box
[09:47] <john_> hi dr nick
[09:47] <raDeon> what's the difference between JuK and amaroK
[09:47] <speel> Seveas, you should put ubuntuguide.org in the topic line
[09:47] <LasseL> jipitore, but getting mythtv up and running is arcane
[09:47] <jipitore> lasset, sorry for my englis, i'm spanish
[09:47] <Seveas> speel, nope
[09:47] <Seveas> ubuntuguide is a Bad Thing
[09:47] <jipitore> i show the video but the sound is imposible
[09:48] <linukso> wiki.ubunutu.org is goooood
[09:48] <linukso> :)
[09:48] <jipitore> i have a card with a conexant chip 878 and you?
[09:48] <Burgundavia> jipitore, #ubuntu-es might be able to help you
[09:48] <speel> the wiki is the sloppyest thing ive ever seen
[09:48] <Seveas> speel, then help fixing it...
[09:48] <linukso> speel: then get involved.
[09:48] <LasseL> jipitore, I think I have a brooktree 8x8 chip too
[09:48] <speel> no i hate all wikis
[09:48] <linukso> speel: whats wrong with it?
[09:49] <LasseL> jipitore, the bttv module should be loaded by default by the kernel
[09:49] <speel> ive never been a fan of the wiki i personally thinks its kinda sloppy
[09:49] <LasseL> jipitore, I don't know about sound. My tv card is in a server
[09:49] <shinu> hm...
[09:50] <linukso> speel: hmm, I think that is a rather odd point of view... :)
[09:50] <jipitore> i'm load the bttv module: modprobe bttv card=1 pll=1 tuner=1
[09:50] <raDeon> what's the difference between JuK and amaroK
[09:50] <thoreauputic> raDeon: amarok is better *grin*
[09:50] <jipitore> but the sound don't work
[09:50] <raDeon> how so?
[09:50] <speel> i suppose lol
[09:50] <john_> irc is just miltiplayer notpad
[09:50] <jipitore> i try with xawtv, tvtime, zapping
[09:51] <thoreauputic> raDeon: it was just a joke ;)
[09:51] <LasseL> Seveas, why is it that the topic doesn't mention the national ubuntu channels. Like "Try your #ubuntu-es, -de, -fr, -pt, -dk and so forth for ubuntu support in your own language"
[09:51] <jipitore> the msp3400 is the module sound?
[09:51] <Seveas> LasseL, the topic is not large enough for all of them :)
[09:51] <LasseL> Seveas, still you could shorten them like I did
[09:52] <BrianB04> Got kind of a stupid question: Is the kernel that installs by default in Ubuntu tweaked in any way, or is it a typical debian kernel image?
[09:52] <john_> wanna play pong?
[09:52] <john_> |.
[09:52] <john_> |   .
[09:52] <john_> |     .

[09:56] <rob_newbie> LOL
[09:56] <thoreauputic> KamiVIP: you need to fix your /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:56] <KamiVIP> yes
[09:56] <thoreauputic> KamiVIP: apt-get clean does something else entirely
[09:56] <KamiVIP> i use backports
[09:56] <drkstar> hi, i just installed ubuntu. I think it is recognizing my wireless adapter because it's light is on/blinking and it's getting warm.. but is there an app to manage networks, so i can put in the ssid, channel, wep, ect?
[09:57] <linukso> KamiVIP: are you using the official backports, or from the "old" backports?
[09:57] <thoreauputic> KamiVIP: I suggest you comment backports out and do  sudo apt-get update
[09:57] <KamiVIP> thats my sources.list file

[10:02] <mark2410> i did well not in root though
[10:02] <eyequeue> can't really attribute the cause to anything other than "elderly woman driving" i guess
[10:02] <eyequeue> she didn't ave a medical incident or anything that caused it, i checked
[10:02] <KamiVIP> thanks gonna try it
[10:02] <mark2410> it went throught the process fine but in the end x just refused to start
[10:02] <eyequeue> oh well, keeps the day interesting ;)

[10:04] <nox> KamiVIP, whats the problem?
[10:04] <linukso> yes
[10:04] <linukso> its the same, just changed the backport mirror to the official
[10:05] <KamiVIP> k
[10:05] <KamiVIP> am nox
[10:05] <KamiVIP> am i got some big problems. When i try to install different applications like Quanta i get message that e.g Quanta depends on some others packages (about 8 other packages) but they cant be installed. If i try to install some of those packages which are listed above most of them will depend on some more packages and i will get same message when ill try to install it (xxx depends on xxx package but it cant be installed) any solutions? because i
[10:05] <KamiVIP> cant install most of the software
[10:05] <raven3x7> configure: error: Library requirements (libgnomeui-2.0) not met; consider adjust but libgnomeui exist although it 2.10.0 in ubuntu
[10:06] <nox> KamiVIP, there are packages that can`t work with other packages installed
[10:06] <thoreauputic> MarkShuttleworth: nice nick ;) only he doesn't use that one ;-)
[10:06] <MarkShuttleworth> har har
[10:06] <fredforfaen> KamiVIP had the same trouble after i installed a bad pkg...i had to reinstall...but im a noob so dont listen to me
[10:06] <ubuntu_> jhdjhasd
[10:06] <ubuntu_> jkqejkqwermads
[10:06] <KamiVIP> well message says that application depends on some x libs which cant be installed
[10:06] <dArtagnan> some? always be exact :)
[10:06] <raven3x7> KamiVIP, are you using marillat or backports
[10:06] <nox> KamiVIP, use screem instead of quanta
[10:07] <nox> raven3x7, marillat is for debian
[10:07] <KamiVIP> my sources.list
[10:07] <KamiVIP> http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/904
[10:07] <raven3x7> nox i know
[10:07] <imper> hej
[10:07] <KamiVIP> another guy said i should use this http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/907
[10:07] <linukso> imper: hey
[10:08] <raven3x7> anybody experienced with solving ./configure errors?
[10:08] <nickrud> KamiVIP, I like the new list :)
[10:08] <linukso> raven3x7: yes
[10:08] <cafuego> raven3x7: Such as? What are you compiling?
[10:08] <topyli> raven3x7: more than enough :)
[10:08] <BockBilbo> hey
[10:08] <linukso> autoconf is my middle name...
[10:08] <KamiVIP> it works with new sources.list
[10:08] <KamiVIP> thanks all:)
[10:08] <linukso> KamiVIP: np
[10:08] <drkstar> is there an app to manage wireless networks that comes with ubuntu?
[10:08] <raven3x7> cbrpager its for viewing cbr comic books
[10:09] <cafuego> drkstar: The network util in the gnome top panel, in theory.
[10:09] <linukso> just paste the error in pastebin, and we'll see if we can help you
[10:09] <drkstar> cafuego: thanks
[10:09] <raven3x7> KamiVIP, your troubles were probably caused by backports
[10:10] <KamiVIP> oh
[10:10] <KamiVIP> corrupted files there?
[10:10] <BockBilbo> i have a problem with the name of some files i have on my system. They are encoded in a wrong way and nautilus doesnt show up the correct characters for .... anyone knows if there is a tool for fixing all the name of the wrong files?
[10:10] <raven3x7> http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/908
[10:11] <BockBilbo> (so i dont have to search for them and fix them manually)
[10:11] <cafuego> !find libgnomeui
[10:11] <MarkShuttleworth> seveas your fired
[10:11] <cafuego> raven3x7: libgnomeui-dev
[10:11] <linukso> raven3x7: sudo aptitude install libgnomeui-dev
[10:11] <raven3x7> KamiVIP, no some backports may screw up dependencies due to installing newer packages
[10:12] <raven3x7> stupid me
[10:13] <raven3x7> thanks btw
[10:13] <thoreauputic> Seveas: a little harsh for a harmless prank, surely ? ;)
[10:14] <deprave> *** exact error that occurred. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.configure: error:
[10:14] <deprave> *** GLib 2.0 is required to build Gaim; please make sure you have the GLib
[10:14] <Raf99> hey everyone.  does FAQ cover installing nvidia linux drivers ? or can someone please help.
[10:14] <thoreauputic> !drivers
[10:14] <ubotu> drivers is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com//BinaryDriverHowto
[10:15] <ma3x> yo
[10:15] <ma3x> phukers
[10:15] <ma3x> how to install gstreamer
[10:15] <topyli> deprave: you need the development package. anyway, why are you building gaim when there are packages already?
[10:15] <raven3x7> ma3x, gstreamer is installed by default
[10:15] <deprave> topyli : it's gaim-VV
[10:15] <topyli> ah
[10:15] <Raf99> thanx ubotu.
[10:16] <linukso> ma3x: user synaptic from System->Admin menu
[10:16] <deprave> i installed build-essential
[10:16] <deprave> =-(
[10:16] <topyli> deprave: glib-dev or similar
[10:16] <ma3x> linukso, what's the package name dood?
[10:16] <linukso> deprave: you need lots of -dev-packages... just start searching
[10:17] <deprave> this is a lot of work to see irc girl boobies on gaim!
[10:17] <topyli> ma3x: how about you search for gstreamer0.8
[10:17] <thoreauputic> deprave: apt-get build-dep gaim might help
[10:17] <deprave> this is gaim-vv tho
[10:18] <deprave> because Razor-X went to go build me a plugin and he never did!
[10:18] <linukso> deprave: if you dump the entire output of ./configure in pastebin, it would help a lot.
[10:18] <topyli> deprave: might help still :)
[10:18] <cefx> Question.  Why can't Ubuntu find 90% of the packages that are mentioned in the Ubuntu Guide?
[10:18] <psychonate> what is gaim-VV?
[10:18] <thoreauputic> deprave: yeah - I just thought it might get some deps for you
[10:18] <Raf99> when installing linux driver (which is a simple sh "file"), its telling me to exit X-server.  Is this implying to exit the GUI and be at a root terminal ?
[10:18] <cafuego> cefx: Do you have universe and mltiverse anbled in sources.list?
[10:18] <PurpleMotion> psychonate:  it's a version of gaim that supports msn voice and video, and aims to support them for yahoo and aim as well
[10:18] <linukso> cefx: because ubuntuguide is not an official part of the ubuntu distro...
[10:18] <holycow> Raf99, yes, but ... what is the driver for?
[10:18] <holycow> nvidia drivers maybe?
[10:18] <thoreauputic> cefx: because you haven't configured your sources correctly
[10:18] <rob_lt> psychonate:  doesn't google work for you?
[10:18] <psychonate> PurpleMotion, sounds complicated heh
[10:18] <holycow> if its nvidia drivers, use the ubuntu packages, it will make your life a lot easier
[10:19] <topyli> cefx: because you haven't enabled all the repositories that the guide assumes. also, the guide might just as well be incorrect
[10:19] <cefx> cafuego, ah!\
[10:19] <raven3x7> cefx what packages you mean?
[10:19] <cafuego> !repos
[10:19] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, repos is at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto
[10:19] <psychonate> rob_lt, no, it doesn't, but I can still manage to find assholes heh
[10:19] <Raf99> holycow, just the linux driver from nvidia site for geforce2mx i got here.
[10:19] <PurpleMotion> psychonate:  yeah, but if they get it working, it will surplant everything as the best messenger program in existance :)
[10:19] <psychonate> funny how that works
[10:19] <sravi> Is it possible to gain a remote "tty" session, or only locally (not pts)?
[10:19] <rob_lt> psychonate:  heh
[10:19] <Razor-X> what are the processors that support mmx2?
[10:19] <Distro^Junkie> can i update to the new kubuntu version from the old cd ? or is it best to download the new one ?
[10:19] <raDeon> LMAO "TTY"
[10:19] <cefx> duh
[10:19] <raven3x7> cfx you may need to add srepositories to your souces.list
[10:19] <PurpleMotion> Razor-X:  everything from p-3 on
[10:19] <deprave> and i can see irc girl's boobies!
[10:19] <cefx> Sorry guys :) I seem to suffer from a kind of retardation :P
[10:19] <Razor-X> PurpleMotion: how 'bout SSE ?
[10:19] <[set] > does anyone know how to run the setup files of a linux distro cd after booted from floppy and are in this position now boot
[10:19] <psychonate> PurpleMotion, I didn't even know they were using voice and video nowadays in messengers :(
[10:19] <[set] > the cd wouldn't boot, so i did the floppy boot and now i am at boot: i dont have linux installed on that harddrive, but i do have the cd with setup.. how do i proceed?
[10:19] <PurpleMotion> dunno, same i think
[10:19] <rob_lt> psychonate:  well, I guess I can excuse you if google is not working for you, otherwise I would think you were just lazy and wasting people's time
[10:20] <f_newton> ya know, the more I use ubuntu the more I like it...
[10:20] <PurpleMotion> psychonate:  for some time now
[10:20] <cafuego> Raf99: That driver is already in ubuntu, don't install nvidias .run file.
[10:20] <deprave> Razor-X : where is my plugins for gaim slacker?! =>
[10:20] <uber_newber> Razor-X: i typed in hotplug and nuthing happend
[10:20] <raven3x7> Raf99, why dont u use the ubuntu driver?
[10:20] <Razor-X> raDeon: the abbreviation ``tty'' has been there almost as girls have
[10:20] <Razor-X> deprave: meh
[10:20] <Razor-X> uber_newber: try and mount it after that
[10:20] <Raf99> ok.  thanx for clearing the confusion cafuego.
[10:20] <psychonate> rob_lt, I'm just lazy and wasting people's time. I hope that makes you feel better.
[10:20] <uber_newber> Razor-X: how do i do that
[10:20] <PurpleMotion> that just confused me more... why would you not use the official nvidia driver?
[10:21] <f_newton> well it makes ME feel better
[10:21] <catolh> is it possible to get the CVS version of aMSN to dock in systray?
[10:21] <sravi> So is it possible to start a TTY session onther than CTRL-ALT-F1/2/3.. ?
[10:21] <vpalle> Hello there, how do I make my PATH setting available for alle gnome apps ??
[10:21] <Razor-X> uber_newber: try ''sudo mkdir /mnt/sda1 & sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1''
[10:21] <uber_newber> k
[10:21] <bartekp> hi
[10:21] <Raf99> PurpleMotion, guessin just like windows, the default driver that comes with ubuntu will do the trick.
[10:21] <Razor-X> sravi: those are the historic shortcuts, you can probably configure X to do something about that
[10:21] <psychonate> I don't see what's wrong with asking a simple question like "What is <program>?" If I wanted an in-depth answer and a place to download from, then I would google it.
[10:21] <cafuego> PurpleMotion: Beacuse it's unpackaged; you can't manage what it does via the package tools. Also, precompiled is far easier.
[10:22] <cafuego> PurpleMotion: It's not as if Ubuntu uses an _older_ driver or anything.
[10:22] <PurpleMotion> Raf99:  there's a big difference between 'will do the trick' and 'is optimized and will run wondefully'
[10:22] <PurpleMotion> cafuego:  ah
[10:22] <sravi> Razor-X, what I am asking is if it is safe to say that if the session is "tty", as opposed to "pts", that it can be considered secure and did not come in over the network
[10:22] <deprave> liglib 2.0 is installed =-/
[10:22] <Raf99> PurpleMotion - yes.
[10:23] <rob_lt> psychonate:  what's "wrong" with that is that it floods this channel with useless chatter that could otherwise be solved with a 3 second google, and other people's legitimate questions might be missed.
[10:23] <deprave> PurpleMotion : operation gaim-vv failure
[10:23] <drkstar> hi, i can't get my wireless internet working. It recognizes the adapter, it's listed in the device manager, the adapter is also working because its on and the light is solid, indicating it's connected to something. The problem is it isn't getting internet access, and it is connected to a network.but not my own because i have wep on and don't know where to put in my password or network info. Under networks it's connected to someone elses
[10:23] <PurpleMotion> deprave:  eh
[10:23] <cafuego> PurpleMotion: The "unoptimised" ubuntu one is compiled for stability by people with over a decade of experience. Your self-compiled one isn't ;-)
[10:23] <vpalle> how does one change gnomes $PATH ?
[10:23] <Raf99> cafuego - if I did want to install a updated driver though, how would I exit X server todo this installation properly? ( will I ever need to ? )
[10:23] <calamari> note on smeg.. it requires python-xdg >= 0.14, but the latest version is 0.9-1, so it won't install
[10:23] <PurpleMotion> cafuego:  i have an ati card, and i use the r128 driver, so NEENER NEENER
[10:23] <Amaranth> calamari: use the install script
[10:24] <psychonate> rob_lt, well, from scrolling up, I can see that you were extremely busy helping people in the last few minutes, so I apologize if I distracted you from further helping people. In fact, I think you have caused more spam in the channel from complaining and making me retort than I did when I asked one simple question.
[10:24] <cafuego> Raf99: When nvidia release a new one, it will e added to Ubuntu a short while later. No need for manual intervention.
[10:24] <uber_newber> can sum1 help my install my toshiba usb fdd kit on my toshiba tecra 8000 processor 2 laptop
[10:24] <Amaranth> calamari: If you install it any other way I don't support it.
[10:24] <sravi> So a "tty" session can be considered secure?
[10:24] <cafuego> PurpleMotion: My mighty radeon 9200 trumps you!
[10:24] <PurpleMotion> I'm just saying there's nothing wrong with installing your own if you want to :D
[10:24] <Raf99> thanx for your help cafuego :)
[10:24] <PurpleMotion> cafuego:  yeah i have a really shitty 16mb ati rage pro 128 ultra
[10:24] <cafuego> PurpleMotion: Yeah, the G3 has one of those too.
[10:25] <PurpleMotion> cafuego:  i *had* a 9500 pro 128m w/9700 pro bios
[10:25] <sravi> sravi, :-(
[10:25] <raven3x7> cafuego i dont think nvidia driversget updated
[10:25] <cafuego> raven3x7: They do :-)
[10:25] <cefx> cafuego, no! My mighty 9600 trumps you!
[10:25] <cefx> :P
[10:25] <cefx> non pro, even!
[10:26] <cefx> lol
[10:26] <PurpleMotion> my 9700 decimated all
[10:26] <raven3x7> 7174 is still the one in the repos unless apt detects my card and doesnt show me the newer ones
[10:26] <f_newton> oy  the vidcard wars are gonna replace the distro wars eh?
[10:26] <cefx> I hope Cedega works.
[10:26] <Amaranth> cefx: A 9250 would be better than a 9500 :P
[10:26] <cafuego> Your canadian trash is no match for my toys
[10:26] <PurpleMotion> it did YEEExHAWxUNF
[10:26] <cefx> 9600
[10:26] <calamari> Amaranth: ahh, didn't see the script.. I was trying the .deb.. thanks
[10:26] <cefx> :P
[10:26] <thoreauputic> f_newton: nothing will ever replace the editor wars, though ;-)
[10:26] <fredforfaen> damn i like ubuntu , must be one of the best distros out there......im impressed
[10:26] <f_newton> cafuego, canadian trash?
[10:26] <aceb747> i am not able to do an apt-get for gstreaner0.8-lame and i updated the repositores.... is there something I am missing?
[10:26] <Amaranth> cefx: no, 9250 is the best ATI available
[10:26] <cafuego> f_newton: ati
[10:27] <PurpleMotion> im gonna go play with my childrens now
[10:27] <f_newton> you are so right thoreauputic

[10:29] <deprave> Amaranth your nickname looks incredibly familiar
[10:30] <MANOWAR^> i have kerberos setup and it works fromt he command line
[10:30] <Amaranth> cefx: yeah, so far it only kinda works, can potentially break your card, and is agp only
[10:30] <cafuego> deprave: You're missing a few -dev packages
[10:30] <Amaranth> deprave: i'm on gimpnet
[10:30] <MANOWAR^> while logged in as root i can call upon an AD user and get it to authenticate
[10:30] <cefx> heh
[10:30] <Firetech> aren't there deb's for OO.o 2 beta somewhere (real deb's, not the alien rpm to deb script from Evolutioncolt)
[10:30] <MANOWAR^> but now I am tryaing to configure PAM so I can login with that AD user from the command line
[10:30] <deprave> cafuego : what do you suggest i do
[10:30] <cafuego> deprave: Like libglib-*dev
[10:30] <rob_lt> uber_newber:  what isn't working.  What does dmesg say when you plug it in?  Is the module being loaded?  Please provide more info.
[10:30] <cefx> Amaranth, what are the drivers for linux like that ATI makes?
[10:30] <f_newton> I dont think my video card is set up to read "millions of colors"  is there a setting I can check for that?
[10:30] <MANOWAR^> http://pastebin.com/327811 <-- this is what my system-auth looks like
[10:30] <Raf99> ahh ctrl+alt+backspace got me to the terminal.  forgt about that
[10:30] <flodine> anyone can help with openbox
[10:30] <Amaranth> cefx: I dunno, they don't support my card.
[10:30] <cafuego> deprave: apt-cache search silc | grep -- -dev
[10:30] <cefx> pewp
[10:31] <cefx> they have one for the radeon family
[10:31] <cafuego> deprave: and same for libglib
[10:31] <cefx> http://www.freewebs.com/wickkidda/38116174_l.jpg
[10:31] <deprave> ok im installing -dev 2.0 now
[10:31] <deprave> via synaptic
[10:31] <Amaranth> cefx: not for the 7000
[10:31] <WebMaven> Can anyone help with my mouse setup? I need to do it again without reinstalling the whole machine.
[10:31] <cefx> ah
[10:31] <cafuego> WebMaven: The mosue steup in X?
[10:31] <cefx> Amaranth my heart goes out to you!
[10:31] <cefx> :P
[10:31] <WebMaven> cafuego: yes.
[10:31] <cafuego> WebMaven: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:32] <uber_newber> rob_lt: i dunno whats not workin and what is, i just wanna install it. and how do i find it in dmesg
[10:32] <Amaranth> cefx: I accept donations of hardware and cash for hardware. ;)
[10:32] <cefx> haha well I have an old 7500
[10:32] <f_newton> Amaranth, where are you?
[10:32] <cefx> if I get a new card, I'll send you my 9600 :)
[10:32] <Amaranth> f_newton: iowa
[10:32] <f_newton> I am getting rid of a lot of old hardware... I may have some you can have
[10:32] <cefx> private ryan!
[10:32] <topyli> Amaranth: you should be able to bum your way to an old matrox pretty easily
[10:33] <rob_lt> uber_newber:  well, dmesg is a command that you can run that shows kernel messages.  When you plug in the usb device, and then type dmesg in a terminal, it should show that you machine recognizes the device.
[10:33] <f_newton> would ya like a couple of pro servers maybe?
[10:33] <topyli> Amaranth: they're the best cards :)
[10:33] <Amaranth> f_newton: I accept all free things. :)
[10:33] <WebMaven> cafuego: I trhink I chose the wrong mouse during setup.
[10:33] <Amaranth> topyli: for 2D, sure
[10:33] <cefx> Hey!
[10:33] <f_newton> well I will see how much it costs to ship these heavy puppies...
[10:33] <cefx> I accept freebies too
[10:33] <kleggas> Im trying to share my internet to my laptop using 2 network cards in my server....eth0 connects to the net, and eth1 is supposed to share it....eth1 has ip <IP_ADDRESS>, submask <IP_ADDRESS>, gateway is the IP of eth0, and then I use on my laptop an IP <IP_ADDRESS> and submask <IP_ADDRESS> and gateway is <IP_ADDRESS> wich is the ip of servers eth1.....I can ssh to the server, ping it, but I can't get out on the net from the laptop...anyone h
[10:33] <cefx> I need a new old linux box
[10:33] <topyli> Amaranth: oh yeah, there's this 3d thing too, i've heard of it ;)
[10:33] <uber_newber> rob_ly: k i plugged it in and did dmesg and got a bunch of stuff. how do i find it in dmesg
[10:33] <cefx> kleggas, do you have a crossover cable to connect directly to the laptop?
[10:33] <RQ> hey]
[10:34] <RQ> X still broken, eh? ;D
[10:34] <LeeColleton> cefx: I need an old new linux box, maybe we can trade
[10:34] <kleggas> cefx: no, I use switch
[10:34] <cafuego> WebMaven: The command I gave you should bring up the entire configuration dialog again.
[10:34] <f_newton> we just had a church group from iowa visit us Monday
[10:34] <_icebreaker_> is there a tutorial to use 2 monitors on a dualheaded nvidia card?
[10:34] <cafuego> f_newton: Free food, nice.
[10:34] <Locutus266> Hello folks, I just installed ubuntu, but I can't seem to login as root. Is there some kind of default password for root account?
[10:34] <kleggas> Locutus266: there is no, use sudo
[10:34] <thoreauputic> !root
[10:34] <cafuego> Locutus266: No, the root account is disabled by default.
[10:34] <ubotu> I heard root is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RootSudo
[10:35] <Locutus266> Thanks
[10:35] <kleggas> Locutus266: or you could type "sudo su" then enter your default acount passwd, and you are root...then change root passwd, but why? just use sudo
[10:35] <rob_lt> uber_newber:  also, I think that is a scsi device, so doing an "lsmod" should show the proper scsi modules being loaded.  You could try mounting the device.  It should show up as /dev/sda or something like that.
[10:35] <f_newton> yes cafuego we handed out enough free food to feed nearly 500 people
[10:36] <deprave> *** GTK+ 2.0 is required to build Gaim; please make sure you have the GTK+
[10:36] <deprave> jebus!
[10:36] <crimsun> deprave: apt-get build-dep gaim
[10:36] <deprave> demanding software
[10:36] <cafuego> f_newton: Deary me, how fat were they?
[10:36] <Locutus266> Is there a way to reactivate the root account? I feel godlike today
[10:36] <kleggas> cefx: why did you ask about the crossover cable? does it make any difference if I use that instead of the switch? I mean, does it need to be setup different in the network settings?
[10:37] <f_newton> cafuego I run a street feeding homeless ministry ...these people are starving
[10:37] <kleggas> Locutus266: yes, allready told u
[10:37] <topyli> Locutus266: open a root terminal from the menu
[10:37] <sklp> Lucutus266: why would u want to activate root?
[10:37] <WebMaven> cafuego: can I do that from a terminal window, or should I do it from a tty session?
[10:37] <Locutus266> I don't know. I love being root.
[10:37] <sklp> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[10:37] <Locutus266> That's not for discussion, either :)
[10:38] <anacron> Locutus266: sudo -i does same thing
[10:38] <sklp> well just type "sudo -s" type in your password and u are essentially root
[10:38] <Locutus266> Well, maybe I should read the man page
[10:38] <Locutus266> thanks anyway
[10:38] <levander> Email I'm sending to my root user is going to my isp's root user.  Anybody know why this is?
[10:38] <kleggas> Locutus266: "sudo su" enter your passwd, now you are root....type "passwd" and enter a root passwd
[10:38] <anacron> sudo -s is bad (c) seveas
[10:39] <Seveas> sudo -i is better
[10:39] <f_newton> waht is the -i flag?
[10:39] <Seveas> -s but with reset $HOME and $USER
[10:39] <Seveas> and you really want that...
[10:39] <thoreauputic> levander: you have entered your ISP's domain as your own? Dunno...
[10:39] <sklp> Seveas: not in all cases :D
[10:39] <aceb747> does anyone know why w32codec is not included in the deb http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ hoary-extras main universe multiverse restricted repository?
[10:40] <Seveas> sklp, name one...
[10:40] <thoreauputic> aceb747: could be because it's w32codecs (plural)
[10:40] <levander> thoreauputic: entered that where?
[10:40] <drkstar> does ubuntu install python-gnome2-extras, python-gtk, and python-gnome2 on install?
[10:40] <psychonate> aceb747, you can get them easily from mplayer's site. Need a link?
[10:40] <aceb747> Seveas, that didnt do it
[10:40] <Seveas> drkstar, apt-cache sepends ubuntu-desktop will tell you :)
[10:41] <drkstar> Seveas: ok, thank you
[10:41] <thoreauputic> levander: I mean did you use your ISP's domain when you installed, so that root became<EMAIL_ADDRESS>? Just guessing really
[10:41] <Seveas> aceb747, w32codecs
[10:41] <psychonate> aceb747, I think there is only a dummy package for w32codecs. You have to actually install the real codecs yourself.
[10:41] <Seveas> with an s at the end
[10:41] <psychonate> Seveas, isn't it only a dummy package?
[10:42] <Seveas> psychonate, w32codecs?
[10:42] <psychonate> yeah
[10:42] <Seveas> nope
[10:42] <f_newton> the win 32 codecs is a 12 meg tarball
[10:42] <aceb747> psychomate, the instructions online are saying to use apt-get
[10:42] <drkstar> if my wireless adapter is recognized, how can i connect to my network? is there an app?
[10:42] <aceb747> can someone with this codec send me there sources.list?
[10:42] <psychonate> ah, I guess it's not
[10:42] <levander> thoreauputic: do I have to create an email box for the root user?  Email sent to my local user name, I receive okay.
[10:43] <vpalle> anybody how how I can change gnome's $PATH ?
[10:43] <vpalle> know
[10:43] <thoreauputic> levander: it should have been created for you
[10:43] <linukso> levander: email to root will be sent to you admin user.
[10:43] <deprave> what command do i use to check how much data is in a directory in gb
[10:43] <thoreauputic> levander: I seem to recall you can configure postfix to send all root's mail to your box
[10:44] <nickrud> levander, is mail to yourself (no domain) being sent through the isp?
[10:44] <linukso> levander: check out /etc/aliases
[10:44] <yuval> deprave: du -sh <dirname>
[10:44] <vpalle> deprave, du -h
[10:44] <topyli> aceb747: mine: http://siltala.net/comp/sources.list -- i got the codecs from the marillat repository. don't use his binaries otherwise
[10:45] <deprave> thanks
[10:45] <thoreauputic> vpalle: I think maybe you are asking the wrong question: if you mean "Where is the global system PATH set I seem to recall it is in /etc/bash.bashrc
[10:45] <aceb747> topyli, this is the dvd::rip repository... right?
[10:46] <topyli> aceb747: i guess he has it too. his binaries just might not work on ubuntu
[10:46] <lamont> thoreauputic: it autoconfigs to send root email to uid 1000's name
[10:46] <vpalle> thoreauputic, thx.. and gnome respects that? it doesnt reset it..
[10:46] <lamont> at install, that is
[10:46] <topyli> aceb747: i'd use the sources from his repository and build packages locally, except for stuff like codecs
[10:46] <Locutus266> Does anybody know why the totem player won't work? It wouldn't even start. It just says "resource in use or unavailable"
[10:47] <thoreauputic> vpalle: not as far as I know - it works here
[10:47] <thoreauputic> lamont: right - root's mail goes to the first user (the one who has sudo rights)
[10:47] <aceb747> topyli, it looks like this repository is going to help my setup with alot more than just the codecs.... thank you
[10:47] <lamont> thoreauputic: and it's just an entry in /etc/aliases
[10:47] <vpalle> thoreauputic, thx
[10:48] <topyli> aceb747: as long as you're lucky and the packages work. fiddling with sarge and etch sources might work some of the time
[10:48] <topyli> aceb747: source packages of course work almost always
[10:49] <nickrud> I've had that problem :) thoreauputic's idea of the isp's domain as the mail domain was my problem.
[10:49] <aceb747> topyli, if this dont work then i will prob go to the source
[10:49] <vpalle> thoreauputic, its /etc/profile though ;)
[10:50] <sexcopter8000m> can anyone suggest a programme for stringing together some jpegs into a video clip?
[10:50] <topyli> aceb747: just enable christian's deb-src line and build with apt. it's easiest
[10:50] <_icebreaker_> how can i use 2 displays under ubuntu?
[10:50] <aceb747> topyli, ok.... i thought it was the mallirats
[10:51] <python_> sexcopter: I think Gimp can do that for you
[10:51] <topyli> aceb747: yes, christian marillat :)
[10:51] <aceb747> topyli, i see there the same :)
[10:51] <topyli> yep
[10:51] <f_newton> gimp makes animations from stills but I dont think its a video editor
[10:53] <python_> depends what we define what a video is though
[10:53] <f_newton> I am not sure if there is a tool in linux to do that readily available
[10:53] <python_> a video in truth is many moving images
[10:53] <python_> what output do you need for this video
[10:53] <f_newton> python_, I dont think he is worried about the philosophy of video
[10:54] <f_newton> I think he wants to join clips together to make a flowing video
[10:54] <levander> linukso: actually, /etc/aliases has root aliased to my local user name
[10:54] <python_> sexcopter: what file ouput wld u like from your images
[10:54] <DrFalken> hi people!
[10:54] <raDeon> hi!
[10:54] <Bubbling_Zombie> hello
[10:55] <raDeon> what's up my friend from argentina
[10:55] <f_newton> some say mythtv will do that sexcopter8000m but I dont know myself
[10:56] <DrFalken> i've recently installed the artwiz-fonts from deb, but they doesn't appear in some gnome font lists, but they appear in xfontsel
[10:56] <DrFalken> and... i want to use them in fluxbox
[10:58] <linukso> levander: wasn't that what you wanted?
[10:58] <python_> sexcopter: have a look at an app could kino
[10:58] <aceb747> topyli, it is not letting me do an update because I dont have a debian PUBKEY
[10:59] <DrFalken> any suggestion to that???
[10:59] <topyli> aceb747: the update still works. if it bothers you, you can get his key from the site
[11:00] <Razor-X> linukso: hah!
[11:00] <xav> gentoo > debian > ubuntu > fedora > mandriva > arch
[11:00] <black13> where would i find the source packages for unbuntu
[11:00] <Razor-X> I had to use Open Office for a Spreadsheet, it's faster than Word, but I have now seen just how slow WYSIWYG office stuf is ;)
[11:00] <levander> linukso: i was saying it works for my regular user, but not for the root user
[11:00] <Razor-X> black13: ary source package would work
[11:00] <equex> could some one point me in the right direction with kubuntu (tried the chan) ? i lost my keyboard layouts and i am not able to add new layouts (only english available) and it seems KDE doesnt recognize my keyboard either (thogh i configured it as pc104 in x)
[11:00] <Razor-X> there's no ``Ubuntu specific'' thing when you compile it
[11:01] <black13> ary?
[11:01] <black13> or any
[11:01] <linukso> levander: any reason you want to send mail as root?
[11:01] <Razor-X> equex: hmmm
[11:01] <sexcopter8000m> hi, sorry, went afk a mo
[11:02] <DrFalken> raDeon: the things someone knows watching the hostnames, no?
[11:02] <Razor-X> equex: i'm googling for you
[11:02] <equex> i was running ATI's config to set up X though
[11:02] <sexcopter8000m> yeah, well i took some pictures using an intervalometer, and i want to string them into a video
[11:02] <python_> sexcopter: Use kino i think the package will be ideal for what you need
[11:02] <sexcopter8000m> like they do in the nature programmes
[11:02] <sexcopter8000m> ok cool, is it fairly self explanatory?
[11:02] <Razor-X> equex: try ``loadkeys name-of-layout'' where name-of-layout is the name of your keyboard layout
[11:02] <equex> damn
[11:02] <python_> Go to the website sexcopter type kino in google
[11:03] <sexcopter8000m> kk
[11:03] <sexcopter8000m> thanks
[11:03] <linukso> Razor-X: the only "office suite" that works is vim in latex mode and octave for calcs :D
[11:03] <python_> sexcopter: http://kino.schirmacher.de/
[11:03] <Razor-X> linukso: I use emacs in LaTeX mode, with emacs-maxima for calculation ;)
[11:03] <raDeon> DrFalken, you got a problem with that?
[11:03] <Razor-X> (not too different, meh)
[11:03] <Razor-X> still, LaTeX spreadsheets.... uggh ;)
[11:04] <equex> trying that razor
[11:04] <DrFalken> raDeon: none... :D, it's nice know ppl who care those lil' details
[11:04] <linukso> Razor-X: heh, cant argue with that :D
[11:04] <Belutz> can i have different wallpaper for each desktop?
[11:04] <linukso> Belutz: you can, at least with fluxbox, but its slooooooooooooooooow
[11:04] <Razor-X> linukso: I was trying a LaTeX spreadsheet earlier today
[11:04] <Razor-X> tabularx was _ok_, but, I just gave up on it ;)
[11:04] <Razor-X> there are some things LaTeX just can't do very well
[11:04] <raDeon> DrFalken, :)
[11:05] <Belutz> linukso: can't do it with gnome?
[11:05] <Razor-X> is there some sort of spreadsheet generating language?
[11:05] <linukso> Razor-X: only made small tables...
[11:05] <linukso> Belutz: nope, dont think so.
[11:05] <topyli> Belutz: not with metacity
[11:05] <Razor-X> linukso: 44 vocab words and their definitions ;)
[11:05] <Razor-X> s/44/42/
[11:05] <Belutz> linukso: ic..
[11:05] <Belutz> too bad
[11:05] <topyli> Belutz: with enlightenment you can, and perhaps other window managers that work with gnome
[11:06] <Razor-X> for a small table, LaTeX is very nice (like a table showing commands and what they do), but a full-blown spreadsheet is real hard
[11:06] <DrFalken> Belutz: if u have lots of RAM... GO ON!!!
[11:06] <Razor-X> is there like, a LaTeX equivalent of a spreadshet generating program, anyone?
[11:06] <wajokki> Why mp3 files doesent work in ubuntu
[11:06] <linukso> Razor-X: I can imagine...
[11:06] <f_newton> python_, actually gimp would do what sexcopter8000m was wanting
[11:06] <Belutz> topyli: i was once install enlightenment... how do i activate it?
[11:06] <DrFalken> 'cause storing multiple wallpapers eats memory... :)
[11:07] <Razor-X> linukso: can you google for me? (because MPlayer is compiling)
[11:07] <topyli> Belutz: killall metacity && enlightenment &
[11:07] <linukso> Razor-X: shure!
[11:07] <Belutz> DrFalken: ic...
[11:07] <Razor-X> thanks!
[11:07] <wajokki> Why mp3 files doesent work in ubuntu
[11:07] <topyli> Belutz: if you like it, save the session when you log out
[11:07] <Belutz> topyli: ic... thx :)
[11:07] <Razor-X> I downloaded all the codecs for MPlayer, so it'l take a while ;)
[11:07] <python_> f_newton it probably could, but i feel kino will be more geared to what he wants with added capabilities such as transitions, etc
[11:07] <Raskall> wajokki: bacause you havent read www.ubuntulinux.org. :)
[11:07] <pinky2000> I've switched to XFCE for my window manager, anyone know how I can 'auto-launch' apps when XFCE starts? For example I'd like to start xfce-calander and vino-server when I log in.
[11:08] <Razor-X> woohoo!
[11:08] <f_newton> I misunderstood his need
[11:08] <Razor-X> pwnage, it finished
[11:08] <Razor-X> 573.7 seconds
[11:08] <python_> However i must point out to photoshop users (which i once was), i use GIMP all the time and its a great piece of software
[11:08] <thoreauputic> !mp3
[11:08] <ubotu> hmm... mp3 is read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats for information about mp3 support
[11:08] <Razor-X> that's 9.562 seconds??? ;)
[11:08] <Razor-X> weird, I thought it was more
[11:08] <f_newton> yes it is linux's answer to photoshop
[11:08] <Razor-X> s/seconds/minutes/
[11:09] <Locutus266> Somehow my /dev/dsp Device is always in use. No application can play sounds, although those gnome system sounds work
[11:09] <Razor-X> woohoo!
[11:09] <Razor-X> time to try out MPlayer
[11:09] <python_> f_newton i laways use it at work instead of Photoshop, it takes photoshop 2 hours too load
[11:09] <linukso> Razor-X: http://latexss.sourceforge.net/
[11:09] <Razor-X> linukso: sounds good from the URL ;)
[11:10] <f_newton> yer being funny, but photoshop is a very good program
[11:10] <linukso> doesn't look that bad either....
[11:10] <python_> f_newton it is but i refuse to use proprietry software at home
[11:10] <jowi> Locutus266, i had the same problem, especiall with Skype. Solution; turn off sound server at startup (gnome sound settings) + change sound output sink to ALSA
[11:10] <f_newton> python_, adobe is the ultimate in propriety software too
[11:10] <Locutus266> Thanks, I'll try that
[11:10] <python_> And i dont really see much that photoshop can do that GIMP cant do
[11:11] <f_newton> I agree with that
[11:11] <jowi> Locutus266, oh and 'killall esd'
[11:11] <Locutus266> what's esd? sound daemon?
[11:11] <Locutus266> esound
[11:11] <jowi> Locutus266, yeah
[11:11] <Locutus266> Is there some kind of runlevel editor (like in suse linux?)
[11:11] <f_newton> gotta reboot
[11:11] <python_> If people didnt crack software, then people would have to use open source, i use free software, open source for ethical reasons
[11:11] <jowi> Locutus266, it was driving me nuts until i figured it out
[11:11] <thoreauputic> Locutus266: esd is the scourge of ubuntu sound configuration ;)
[11:12] <levander> linukso: I don't want to send mail as root.  I want to send mail to root.  I've got a cron job set up to backup my system. This script has to be run as root.  I don't want the email going to the root user, I never check that email.  And, I certainly don't want that email going to my ISP, as root's email is now.
[11:12] <Locutus266> Well, let's see
[11:12] <Locutus266> Wow, it actually works! Thanks
[11:12] <python_> Imagine, first you buy win xp, then macromedia suite, then photoshop, illustartor, .net, you upto 4000 already
[11:12] <levander> linukso: But, apparently, mailing to 'root@localhost' works fine, it's just mailing to 'root' that's not working.
[11:12] <CircleofChaos> What does this mean: "The channel demigods have stolen your voice"?
[11:12] <thoreauputic> !bum
[11:12] <ubotu> I don't know, thoreauputic
[11:12] <thoreauputic> hmm
[11:12] <jowi> Locutus266, you are welcome
[11:12] <axylfyre> hey all
[11:13] <Belutz> is 800mb too much for /swap ?
[11:13] <axylfyre> can I get some help installing ubuntu on windows xp? please
[11:13] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: probably that some channel has you +q - are you registered?
[11:13] <levander> Belutz: it's not out of the ballpark
[11:14] <nox> axylfyre, you can`t "install ubuntu on windows xp"
[11:14] <CircleofChaos> What is +q?
[11:14] <python_> People it is wrong to create class's out of software, and keep secrets, if we want a better computing world with better interoperabilty then we must go this way
[11:14] <axylfyre> ok
[11:14] <CircleofChaos> How do I register?
[11:14] <axylfyre> what can you install to do a dual boot?
[11:14] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: +q is a mode that silences a user
[11:14] <CircleofChaos> I thought all you needed was a nickname.
[11:14] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos:  /msg nickserv help
[11:14] <nox> axylfyre, install ubuntu, and it should automaticly add your windows xp installtion to the grub.
[11:14] <Belutz> levander: ic, because i see my system only use a little space of swap memory
[11:14] <python_> axylfire: just get rid of xp
[11:15] <axylfyre> oh forget it
[11:15] <deprave> im deleting stuff with a file manager, is it all going to a trash bin of some sort?
[11:15] <Belutz> axylfyre: use vmware ?
[11:15] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos:  and /msg nickserv register <nick> <password> IIRC
[11:15] <shammy> wooo got xserver working finally
[11:15] <nox> Belutz,  vmware costs money, installing ubuntu is free.
[11:16] <Belutz> thoreauputic: what's IIRC stands for?
[11:16] <python_> axylefare: You could use Virtual PC too
[11:16] <levander> Belutz: yeah, people put even more than that in swap, dunno why, I put like 500MB because it was recommended somewhere.  But, if you're every using more than say 100MB, you're system is going to be unbearable slow
[11:16] <Locutus266> XMMS works fine now, but Totem Player still won't start (resource busy or not available)
[11:16] <shammy> if i recal correctly, Belutz
[11:16] <Belutz> nox: i know... just proposing a solution to him
[11:16] <thoreauputic> Belutz: If I Remember Correctly  ;)
[11:16] <python_> we should let windows users rot in there own problems
[11:16] <Burgundavia> Locutus266, change to totem-xine
[11:16] <mcphail> Any idea why I can't connect to my Apache server from the outside world?
[11:16] <Belutz> i thought IIRC is an IRC client LOL
[11:16] <CircleofChaos> Thoreauputic, how I can I tell the channel to let me speak again?
[11:17] <python_> mcphail: there could be 101 reasons to tht
[11:17] <linukso> mcphail: you need a real ip address
[11:17] <hybrid_> Belutz:  heh
[11:17] <mcphail> python_: I think I've tries the 1st 100
[11:17] <shammy> could someone help me get my wireless internet up and running? I looked under device manager and the netgear adapter is listed, so it's recognizing it.. what else do I need to do?
[11:17] <CircleofChaos> The channel is #perl.
[11:17] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: depends - if you are registered normally you can speak in any channel
[11:17] <CircleofChaos> I cannot talk in #perl. :(
[11:17] <python_> mcphail: Good im glad your trying
[11:17] <Locutus266> totem-xine is not available through synaptic is it?
[11:17] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: I don't know what #perl's policy is
[11:18] <python_> mcphail: Perhaps a forum would be better for that question
[11:18] <vader1102> shammy: do you have internet connection?
[11:18] <CircleofChaos> What is your policy?
[11:18] <shammy> vader1102: available? or on ubuntu
[11:18] <CircleofChaos> How do I become an operator in #perl?
[11:18] <equex> Razor-X: i loaded up my keymap but there is no changes anywhere.. i think i need to make it recognize the keyboard *model* first.
[11:18] <vader1102> on ubuntu
[11:18] <Belutz> hmmm someone just want to try ubuntu, and maybe he do not know about the live cd and wants to try it, it's better to propose a solution, he might be migrate to ubuntu if he likes it :D
[11:18] <wajokki> why mp3 files doeset work
[11:18] <shammy> vader1102: No I don't
[11:18] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: in #ubuntu anyone can speak - within reason :)
[11:18] <Belutz> that's what i thiught
[11:18] <wajokki> need some plugin or something
[11:18] <Razor-X> gah!
[11:18] <Belutz> *thought
[11:19] <mcphail> python_: maybe. Just wondered if ubuntu had any quirks that i might be missing
[11:19] <Subliminal> when i start gaim it tells me my version is out of date, but apt tells me my packages are all up to date, how can i upgrade gaim?
[11:19] <CircleofChaos> What do you mean?
[11:19] <Razor-X> my MPlayer's audio and video are out of sync
[11:19] <python_> totem-xine is accessable through apt-get
[11:19] <python_> i just tried it
[11:19] <CircleofChaos> By "within reason"?
[11:19] <vader1102> shammy: try iwlist scan and tell me if it sees the router
[11:19] <python_> you must have your repositories enabled
[11:19] <nox> wajokki, because mp3 is a registered patent, and in some countries such as USA it is illegal to use it
[11:19] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: within the Code of Conduct for Ubuntu
[11:19] <Belutz> Razor-X: i uninstalled my MPlayer hehehe, now i just use totem and vlc
[11:19] <jowi> Razor-X, you should be able to adjust the sync with z+x buttons if i remember it correctly (i do not use mplayer myself)
[11:19] <thoreauputic> !conduct
[11:19] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, conduct is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/conduct/document_view
[11:19] <CircleofChaos> Isn't this a free country. Freedom of Speech?
[11:20] <Razor-X> Belutz: I use VLC
[11:20] <wajokki> what files work?
[11:20] <Razor-X> but, VLC can't playe H.264
[11:20] <wajokki> in mandrake mp3 files work
[11:20] <Belutz> Razor-X: ic
[11:20] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: which country? THis is international
[11:20] <nox> VLC is another xine based.
[11:20] <python_> Locutus266: Do you need a hand installing totem-xine?
[11:20] <Razor-X> nox: VLC is not xine based
[11:20] <shammy> vader1102: it says none of my devices support scanning
[11:20] <nox> wajokki, just install xmms-mp3: "sudo apt-get install xmms-mp3"
[11:20] <python_> VLC rocks
[11:21] <Distro^Junkie> Amarok rocks
[11:21] <vader1102> ok, then you will need to google ubuntu and your wireless card
[11:21] <nox> Razor-X, are you sure VLC is not xine based? i heard different from someone
[11:21] <shammy> vader1102: even though it is recognized as the right adapter in device manager, that doesn't mean it is set up for internet access though does it?
[11:21] <linukso> shammy: you should take a look in the ubuntu wiki.
[11:21] <Razor-X> nox: 100% sure
[11:22] <vader1102> no
[11:22] <Razor-X> VLC has it's own engine and plugins ground up
[11:22] <wajokki> E: Pakettia xmms-mp3 ei lytynyt
[11:22] <linukso> shammy: there is lots of info on supported hardware
[11:22] <python_> VLC is not Xine based
[11:22] <CircleofChaos> Oh, okay. Thank you! How do I tell #perl to let me in again?
[11:22] <vader1102> one sec
[11:22] <nox> Razor-X, ok :) thank you for the information
[11:22] <wajokki> package xmms-mp3 doesent found
[11:22] <vader1102> shammy: what card is it?
[11:22] <Razor-X> no prob
[11:22] <python_> VLC in my opnion is one of the best media players out there
[11:22] <Razor-X> same here
[11:22] <Locutus266> @python_ I never used apt-get before
[11:22] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: you might want to ask in #freenode, or /msg a freenode staff member
[11:23] <nox> wajokki, sorry, the package is mp3-mad
[11:23] <python_> ill help u Locotus266
[11:23] <nox> wajokki, sorry, the package is xmms-mad =\
[11:23] <shammy> linukso: netgear wg111, it's a usb adapter
[11:23] <python_> can i pm u
[11:23] <shammy> err
[11:23] <nox> wajokki, sudo apt-get install mp3-mad
[11:23] <Belutz> time to hit the bed...
[11:23] <nox> wajokki, oops: sudo apt-get install xmms-mad
[11:23] <shammy> vader1102: netgear wg111 it;s a usb adapter
[11:23] <wajokki> okk :D
[11:23] <Locutus266> "totem-xine has no installation candidate "
[11:23] <nox> wajokki, xmms-mad - mp3 input plugin for xmms based on libmad
[11:23] <shammy> sorry about that linukso, didn;t mean to addres you :)

[11:25] <Kev0r> grr how do i get stuff in Ubuntu to mount automatically!?
[11:25] <Subliminal> one of my terminals seems to have gone hyroglyphic after i ctrl^c lynx, how do i get english back?
[11:25] <jowi> thomerz_, finally: thank you!
[11:25] <Kev0r> i'm not using gnome
[11:25] <aceb747> i still cant get w32codecs working....
[11:25] <jowi> spelling is a pain sometimes
[11:25] <thoreauputic> Subliminal: try typing  reset  blindly
[11:25] <CircleofChaos> Thoreauputic, the same thing is happening in #freenode.
[11:26] <topyli> aceb747: you got the package to install ok?
[11:26] <Subliminal> thoreauputic: didnt work :-/
[11:26] <CircleofChaos> What do I do now?
[11:26] <Subliminal> thoreauputic: even the prompt is hyroglyphic
[11:26] <topyli> aceb747: which player are you using?
[11:27] <CircleofChaos> :(
[11:27] <aceb747> topyli, i am not using a player yet... it is saying i dont have it in the repository.... but even the ubuntu wiki says that it is there
[11:27] <shammy> vader1102: so I need ndiswrapper? does it come with ubuntu or can I get it via synaptic?
[11:27] <Jemt> aceb747: Have you added Universe and Multiverse ?
[11:28] <vader1102> you may have to download it from the net and compile it
[11:28] <_icebreaker_> how can i enable twinview with the nv driver?
[11:28] <aceb747> jewt, yes i have hoary main restricted universe multiverse
[11:29] <ChynphaT> big newb right here, just installed kubuntu and id like if someone can help me figure out how to install stuff and how to navigate with the terminal, or just refer me to some good help pages, help would be greatly appreciated
[11:29] <dave> helo
[11:29] <mcphail> Subliminal: try typing stty sane [ctrl-J]
[11:29] <dave> hello
[11:29] <dave> new to linux just trying
[11:29] <CircleofChaos> ChynphaT,  have you asked that question in #KUBUNTU?
[11:29] <topyli> aceb747: enable the marillat unstable repository temporarily and install w32codecs. then disable the repo again
[11:29] <ChynphaT> oh, no, thanks ill go do that
[11:30] <Subliminal> mcphail: it printed pictures at me
[11:30] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: are you sure the ops in #perl didn't silence you? maybe /msg a #perl op or something
[11:30] <Subliminal> mcphail: ahh, it told me [ctrl-j]  was an invalid argument :-/
[11:31] <mcphail> Subliminal: try 'return' instead
[11:31] <Razor-X> is my system really too slow for H.264 ?
[11:31] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: I take it you have now registered?
[11:31] <Gorth> !!
[11:31] <ubotu> I heard ! is what u add before a sentence to talk to me
[11:31] <aceb747> topyli, it is saying there is no installation canidate
[11:31] <CircleofChaos> I did, but then I dropped the nickname.
[11:31] <CircleofChaos> It was useless to talk in #perl when no one listened.
[11:31] <Gorth> when i try to access my shared folder over a network, it asks for a user, so i made a user "guest"
[11:32] <Subliminal> mcphail: as in press enter?
[11:32] <Gorth> and set a folder to 777
[11:32] <Gorth> and it says unknown username!
[11:32] <topyli> aceb747: are sure you ran "apt-get update"?
[11:32] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: well, this isn't magic -if you change your nick you are no longer recognised
[11:32] <CircleofChaos> Gorth, are you using Samba?
[11:32] <Gorth> yeah
[11:32] <aceb747> topli, yes
[11:32] <Gorth> circleofchaos: yeah
[11:32] <mcphail> Subliminal:  yes. Sometimes when the terminal screws up enter doesn't work and you have to type ctrl-J instead
[11:32] <Subliminal> mcphail: aah
[11:32] <aceb747> topyli, i even added the malliat pubkey
[11:32] <dbernar1> Can anyone spare some change?
[11:32] <CircleofChaos> Gorth, did you create a user for yourself?
[11:33] <CircleofChaos> "smbpasswd"
[11:33] <Subliminal> mcphail: it seems to work, but in a rather odd language
[11:33] <Gorth> hm?
[11:33] <mcphail> Subliminal: ??
[11:33] <jowi> dbernar1, what currency?
[11:33] <topyli> aceb747: and "apt-get install w32codecs" doesn't work?
[11:33] <CircleofChaos> When run by root:
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>     smbpasswd [options]  [username]
[11:33] <CircleofChaos> otherwise:
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>     smbpasswd [options]
[11:33] <CircleofChaos> options:
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -L                   local mode (must be first option)
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -h                   print this usage message
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -s                   use stdin for password prompt
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -c smb.conf file     Use the given path to the smb.conf file
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -D LEVEL             debug level
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -r MACHINE           remote machine
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -U USER              remote username
[11:33] <topyli> aceb747: maybe his repositories are just b0rken right now
[11:33] <CircleofChaos> extra options when run by root or in local mode:
[11:33] <Subliminal> mcphail: like mangled, but when i copied and pasted in here it was in english
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -a                   add user
[11:33] <CircleofChaos>   -d                   disable user

[11:34] <LinuxJones> CircleofChaos, omg dude don't paste here
[11:34] <CircleofChaos> Oops, sorry.
[11:34] <CircleofChaos> Gorth, that was for you.
[11:34] <CircleofChaos> Sorry everyone. :(
[11:34] <Gorth> haha
[11:34] <Gorth> sorry about that
[11:34] <synd> !paste
[11:34] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, paste is please use http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/ or #flood to paste large amounts of text
[11:34] <Gorth> thanks circle
[11:34] <aceb747> topyli, right.... it is saying no installation canidate.... possibly could be broken
[11:34] <dbernar1> jowi: well,  I am hungry. But that is unrelated. Anyhow, I like how there is this Unix lab here at my university, and Sun machines, with gnome on them, pretty nice.
[11:34] <mcphail> Subliminal: sometimes stty sane or reset work. Sometimes they don't. The key is not to ctrl-c less in the 1st place...
[11:34] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: if you did *that* in #perl, you would never be allowed back, I would say
[11:34] <CircleofChaos> No.
[11:35] <aceb747> topyli, what is the best way to add the debian pubkey.... cause that one might have it
[11:35] <topyli> aceb747: debian doesn't have the codecs for sure
[11:35] <dbernar1> CircleofChaos: so you can use that instead of interrupting everyones conversation
[11:35] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: in many channels that would have been an automatic kick
[11:35] <Subliminal> when i start gaim it tells me my version is out of date, but apt tells me my packages are all up to date, how can i upgrade gaim?
[11:35] <aceb747> topyli, it is also wierd that there not in the ubuntu repo when they say it is in the wiki
[11:35] <dbernar1> CircleofChaos: ya, so be careful, and dont paste like that.
[11:35] <CircleofChaos> Thoreauputic, why?
[11:36] <topyli> aceb747: just get the package from ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/ :)
[11:36] <Seveas> CircleofChaos, NEVER do that again
[11:36] <dbernar1> cause you interrupt everyone's conversation
[11:36] <CircleofChaos> Thank you for giving me a second chance.
[11:36] <CircleofChaos> :)
[11:36] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: you just spammed the channel with a huge paste
[11:36] <dbernar1> anyhow, on to more exciting topics
[11:37] <dbernar1> hahaha, ubotu urinates on circle of chaos??
[11:37] <dbernar1> weird.
[11:37] <dbernar1> who made a lart entry?
[11:37] <aceb747> topyli, that makes sense.... will be easier this way
[11:37] <topyli> dbernar1: even bots have feelings :)
[11:37] <topyli> aceb747: yeah, then just install it with dpkg -i
[11:37] <dbernar1> radeon is back?
[11:38] <f_newton> the more I use ubuntu the happier I am about it...
[11:38] <f_newton> lol
[11:38] <aceb747> is there any things i should be aware of with the amd64 that i would not know if i was running i386
[11:38] <Kev0r> how do i start something when booting Ubuntu?
[11:38] <f_newton> although I really dont like the name
[11:38] <CircleofChaos> What does the term "trolling" mean?
[11:38] <dbernar1> CircleofChaos: go check wikipedia, it has a cool entry, if I remember correctly.
[11:38] <Seveas> CircleofChaos, it means being obnoxious
[11:38] <f_newton> CircleofChaos, people who come in a room baiting others pretending to be unknowing
[11:38] <f_newton> trolling so to speak for a response
[11:38] <dbernar1> both are approximations of what I think trolling is.
[11:39] <hybrid_> anyone know if the D-link DWL-122 works under Ubuntu?
[11:39] <dbernar1> hybrid_: looked at the wiki?
[11:39] <Kev0r> Seveas: How can i start (let's say) gnome-volume-manager when i boot my pc?
[11:39] <LinuxJones> Kev0r, do you mean a service ?
[11:39] <hybrid_> dbernar1:  nope whats the link?
[11:39] <topyli> aceb747: please don't say you're running amd64 :)
[11:39] <aceb747> hybrid. is that a router?
[11:39] <vader1102> hybrid: I am using the dwl-g650 and working great here
[11:39] <Kev0r> LinuxJones: see my question
[11:39] <aceb747> topyli, yes i am
[11:39] <dbernar1> wiki.ubuntu.com there is a search, and also it is under hardware support
[11:39] <jowi> hybrid_, i heard that it use the prism2 driver and should be ok.
[11:39] <Kev0r> the automatic mounting was so easy, just had to apt-get gnome-volume-manager
[11:39] <Kev0r> ^:|
[11:40] <jowi> hybrid_, but i'm not 100%
[11:40] <hybrid_> jowi:  dbernar1 : thank yall
[11:40] <topyli> aceb747: grr. those repositories are not going to work. i should have asked in the first place i guess :(
[11:40] <dbernar1> ya, also, look for a wifi entry, and the ndiswrapper page has a list of working cards.
[11:40] <LinuxJones> Kev0r, go System >> Preferences >> Sessions >> Startup Programs tab
[11:41] <dbernar1> LinuxJones: isnt that only gonna start it when he starts gnome??
[11:41] <Kev0r> that's just for a session, it just needs to boot every time
[11:41] <dbernar1> cause I am fairly sure it is.
[11:41] <Kev0r> yes idd, with a gnome session dbernar1
[11:41] <MartenH> ok, I tried this yesterday but got occupied so I'm giving it a new shot today... I am trying to set up my webcam but it won't work. Another cam works fine right away.
[11:41] <tium> hi all,
[11:41] <stevenj> can't believe Google is down
[11:41] <Kev0r> i need it to start when Ubu-y boots
[11:41] <thoreauputic> CircleofChaos: don't take anything too much to heart - IRC is a strange subculture with it's own netiquette and rules :)
[11:41] <LinuxJones> dbernar1, you can't start gnome-volume-manager in a bash terminal
[11:41] <gardiner> I am come here for windows and I would like to see how I eject CD with button if possible ?
[11:41] <tium> Is X really still broken in breezy ?
[11:41] <aceb747> topyli, is that why i am not able to find the stuff?
[11:42] <hybrid_> stevenj:  works for me
[11:42] <LinuxJones> dbernar1, but I could be wrong
[11:42] <Kev0r> why not LinuxJones
[11:42] <dbernar1> LinuxJones: go ahead a nd try, I am suure you can
[11:42] <MartenH> Right now I think  Ineed to update some drivers and replace the old ones, can someone help me? I have the tar file but need to compile which I'm new to
[11:42] <vader1102> me 2
[11:42] <Kev0r> i can just run it from an xterm
[11:42] <dbernar1> stevenj: it works here.
[11:42] <topyli> aceb747: yes. w32codecs are called "32" for a reason :\
[11:42] <stevenj> hybrid, interesting....everything works but google.com--then again I am using comcast
[11:42] <dbernar1> other pages load for you?
[11:42] <LinuxJones> dbernar1, well I jsut assumed that's what he wanted to do using Gnome
[11:42] <dbernar1> haha, stevenj...
[11:43] <Kev0r> no LinuxJones
[11:43] <aceb747> topyli, should i revert to a i386 installation?
[11:43] <stevenj> dbernar1, I guess comcast is banned from Google now....banned from everything else
[11:43] <dbernar1> LinuxJones: cool...
[11:43] <dbernar1> stevenj: just a sec.
[11:43] <topyli> aceb747: marillat has a amd64 repository, scroll down at ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/index.html . but there's no w32codecs package
[11:43] <dbernar1> dont leave.
[11:43] <hybrid_goth> stevenj:  i hate comcast (techtv) the google ig and firefox search works for me
[11:43] <ixion> hi, whats the kerberos package called please? something to do with the number 5? :)
[11:43] <dbernar1> I may be able to fix this for you.
[11:43] <dbernar1> can yo uping google?
[11:43] <LinuxJones> Kev0r, you want to say run a script or something when your pc boots in general ?
[11:43] <stevenj> I'll try
[11:43] <hybrid_goth> yea
[11:44] <slashdevnull> Hi, all.
[11:44] <Kev0r> yes! exactly
[11:44] <dbernar1> ixion: did you hear of synaptic's search capabilities?
[11:44] <topyli> aceb747: some people run amd64 and run a selection of multimedia 32 bit apps in a chroot jail. i don't know offhand how it's done
[11:44] <hybrid_goth> lol
[11:44] <ixion> yes, its showing up kerberos 4 stuff, there was a specific package for kerberos 5 support and its not showing up
[11:44] <linukso> topyli: that might be because there are very few codecs for 64 bit windows :)
[11:44] <dbernar1> hm...whats the 4 package called?
[11:45] <topyli> linukso: i would imagine so ;)
[11:45] <stevenj> I am unable to ping www.google.com
[11:45] <LinuxJones> Kev0r, you can create a custom script and place it in /etc/init.d, make the script executable, then update-rc.d scriptname defaults and it will run when you boot your computer.
[11:45] <ixion> well there are lots of kerberos packages, mentioning the number 4
[11:45] <HakonBH> hello
[11:45] <dbernar1> stevenj: what is the error? timeouts?
[11:45] <thoreauputic> ixion: apt-cache search krb5
[11:46] <dbernar1> ixion: I cant find 5 neither.
[11:46] <HakonBH> join #ubuntubr
[11:46] <jowi> stevenj, try <IP_ADDRESS> (since you might have a DNS problem)
[11:46] <hybrid_goth> stevenj:  thats weird!
[11:46] <dbernar1> thoreauputic: ya that works.
[11:46] <stevenj> dbernar1, using ping in network tools...no errors...but a time out it looks like
[11:46] <Kev0r> do i have to type update-rc.d scriptname defaults litterally?
[11:47] <topyli> aceb747: http://snipurl.com/gocm describes building a 32bit chroot on ubuntu, and installing 32bit apps
[11:47] <dbernar1> stevenj: please use the terminal:) open a terminal, and type in ping www.google.com and hit enter.
[11:47] <dbernar1> name of the script/.....
[11:47] <topyli> aceb747: otherwise, you might want to run the 32 bit ubuntu
[11:47] <LinuxJones> Kev0r, yes sudo update-rc.d scriptname defaults (it will run the script for  runlevels 2-5)
[11:47] <ixion> thoreauputic, dbernar1 - thanks looking
[11:47] <stevenj> dbernar1, this is all I see -- PING www.l.google.com (<IP_ADDRESS>) 56(84) bytes of data.
[11:47] <ixion> krb5 is right :)
[11:47] <MartenH> Seveas, doing some chan cleanup? :)
[11:48] <Kev0r> ok thanks
[11:48] <dbernar1> ok, that means timeouts.
[11:48] <stevenj> thanks
[11:48] <dbernar1> hit ctrl+c to end application
[11:48] <Seveas> MartenH, yup
[11:48] <thoreauputic> Kev0r: where <scriptname> is the name of your script
[11:48] <Seveas> shall I clean you out the channel? :)
[11:48] <wajokki> xmms doesent work fine when i try play some file it freezing and it must kill
[11:48] <MartenH> "To get things running, load the kernel module "ovcamchip" at startup. " how do I do this?
[11:48] <stevenj> yes 100% packet loss ;)
[11:48] <rikva> Hi all, my new notebook is arriving this week and I want to install Debian OR (k)Ubuntu on it. I'll only use Ubuntu if I can use the Debian (testing/unstable) repositories. Is that possible?
[11:48] <Seveas> MartenH, sudo modprobe ovcamchip
[11:48] <dbernar1> wajokki: only some files, or all files?
[11:48] <thoreauputic> wajokki: in Options Preferences, set the output plugin to esound
[11:49] <Seveas> rikva, to a certain extent, but all in there is also in the UBuntu repositories
[11:49] <wajokki> all
[11:49] <stevenj> strange thing is I can get to www.gnome-look.org
[11:49] <thoreauputic> wajokki: see above
[11:49] <MartenH> Seveas, ty
[11:49] <rikva> Seveas: Personally I find the standard ubuntu repositories a bit small - for example, it has no airsnort afaik
[11:49] <Seveas> rikva, it has
[11:49] <dbernar1> stevenj: did you contact Comcast at all about this?
[11:49] <Seveas> rikva, you just need to enable universe
