[00:00] <patogen> Huffalump: Try iwconfig your-id essid "name of AP"
[00:00] <OmegaCent1> aaronm I think one of the problems is I don't know what kind of share it is.
[00:00] <Pirate_Hunter> whats the command to disconnect USB device through terminal?
[00:00] <Huffalump> Is there a command I can run which will identify which security scheme is being used?  I thought the network I am connecting to is WEP, but perhaps I am mistaken.
[00:00] <Slart> OmegaCent1: samba is a pretty big collection of utilites... but connecting to a network drive is pretty straight forward.. check the samba internet site.. or the man page for specifics
[00:00] <Huffalump> ok
[00:00] <Slart> OmegaCent1: thankfully I've been spared the wrath of vpn's =)
[00:00] <MotherDear> No one I guess...
[00:01] <patogen> Huffalump: iwlist eth1 scan gives me the results ...
[00:01] <OmegaCent1> Slart: so go ahead and install the samba package from synaptics package manager?
[00:01] <Itaku> im trying to install g++ but im having a problem
[00:01] <Slart> MotherDear: not a lot to go on there.. the installation froze.. do you have anything "weird" in your computer?
[00:01] <Huffalump> Thanks, patogen!
[00:01] <OmegaCent1> Anyone know how to JUST turn off "tapping" on a laptop touchpad?
[00:01] <blah2345> why is flash plugin -nonfree going to work on amd64 again ... ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
[00:01] <Huffalump> There are 12 networks here.
[00:01] <Itaku> i do sudo apt-get install g++
[00:01] <Slart> OmegaCent1: I'm not sure if you need the whole thing or just the client
[00:01] <Itaku> with the cd in
[00:01] <PriceChild> blah2345, adobe don't release a 64bit version of flash
[00:01] <Itaku> but then it stops at 50%
[00:01] <Huffalump> And mine is not WEP, but WPA2.
[00:02] <Huffalump> Big difference.
[00:02] <neverblue> blah2345, your excessive question marks are not necesary, please read the topic
[00:02] <Itaku> i ctrl+c and it stops
[00:02] <Itaku> but then i cant eject the cd
[00:02] <blah2345> neverblue: ur response was not helpful
[00:02] <Huffalump> let's test =]
[00:02] <blah2345> neverblue: please refrain from answering in the future or give useful info
[00:02] <MotherDear> No, not the installation, when I was done the installation, I removed the live CD adnd restarted.
[00:02] <neverblue> blah2345, obviously, but you havent read the channel rules
[00:02] <Slart> blah2345: ask adobe about it instead.. we're not the ones creating the package
[00:02] <blah2345> neverblue: obviously, you didn't read what I said above
[00:02] <blah2345> Slart: how did the old flashplugin-nonfree plugin work on amd64?
[00:03] <blah2345> Slart: ... I have it working on my laptop before the md5sum problem came up
[00:03] <bill_> i'm trying to write a package that will install some config stuff for me and i'm having trouble getting it right
[00:03] <neverblue> blah2345, I just couldnt see past all those question marks
[00:03] <con-man> is there a way to open .7z files in linux?
[00:03] <bill_> basically i want to override the stuff in ldap-auth-config
[00:03] <Itaku> im trying to install g++ but im having a problem, i do sudo apt-get install g++ with the cd in but it goes to %50 working and stops, i ctrl+c and it halts and then when i try to eject the cd it doesnt eject saying only root can eject it. PLZ HELP
[00:03] <patogen> Check the launchpad site, it has a flashplugin (nonfree) that works for me
[00:03] <blah2345> neverblue: it's okay, I forgive you; please don't make the same mistake again
[00:03] <Huffalump> I misread the info. In actuality, it confirms i was correct -> Group Cipher: WEP
[00:03] <Slart> blah2345: how?.. well.. it played flash files.. I don't know how it did it
[00:03] <patogen> con-man: Search for 7zip tool.
[00:03] <Huffalump> Well, WEP-40
[00:03] <p34r> does anyone know if i can protect the passwords (encrypt or something) in svn's passwd file?
[00:03] <neverblue> blah2345, that was on apology, dont get me wrong
[00:03] <Pirate_Hunter> whats the command to disconnect USB device through terminal?
[00:03] <Huffalump> Which I assume is what Ubuntu network tools uses (as opposed to, say, 128).
[00:03] <mike8768> does anyone have time to answer a quick question?
[00:04] <neverblue> !ask | mike8768
[00:04] <ubotu> mike8768: 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. :-)
[00:04] <Slart> mike8768: just ask.. if someone knows the answer they will tell you.. perhaps
[00:04] <con-man> patogen: not in repositories
[00:04] <blah2345> ... anyone know how the old flashplugin-nonfree package worked? (i.e. it somehow download the flash package; then does some magic [THIS IS THE MAGIC PART I WANT TO KNOW]; then it wokrs on my amd64 machine ...)
[00:04] <Jay-Oh-En> are there any programs to mod v3 razrs (the phones)
[00:04] <Itaku> im trying to install g++ but im having a problem, i do sudo apt-get install g++ with the cd in but it goes to %50 working and stops, i ctrl+c and it halts and then when i try to eject the cd it doesnt eject saying only root can eject it. PLZ HELP
[00:04] <Huffalump> When setting up a wireless connection, how can I can firm that 'WEP (ascii)" is 40 bit and not 128 bit?
[00:04] <Huffalump> *confirm
[00:04] <aaronm> Itaku: have you tried getting rid of the CD-ROM from your repos in the Software Source List and then "sudo apt-get update" then trying "sudo apt-get install g++"?
[00:05] <patogen> con-man: ok, when i do apt-cache search I find p7zip that can open it...
[00:05] <con-man> ty
[00:05] <Itaku> i dont know
[00:05] <Itaku> lemme try that
[00:05] <MotherDear> OK, so after installation, I took out CD and restarted like the wizard told me to, then while the computer was booting up, the first message it gave me was Loadinbg GNU. Loading GNU Please Wait... and then it freezes at that for more then 3 hours, (after that I shut it down)
[00:05] <mike8768> ok then, for calendars is there one that will start up with ubuntu and be open in the background so that when im on my computer i can look at it without haveing to open it im using evolution for my calendar right now
[00:05] <georgy_28> Huffalump : wireless-key s:key
[00:05] <Slart> Pirate_Hunter: I'm not sure you can disconnect a USB device.. you can unmount it and then disconnect it by pulling it out..
[00:05] <Itaku> after i updated it still stops at %50
[00:05] <p34r> Megaqwerty: hey again; how could i set up my users so only my account has access to a specific passwd file i want to be kept from other ssh users accessing?
[00:05] <Huffalump> georgy_28, bash says command not found
[00:05] <neverblue> mike8768, selecting your clock (clicking on it) opens a calender...
[00:06] <Itaku> After unpacking 31.0MB of additional disk space will be used.
[00:06] <OmegaCent1> Slart: Uh, is smbmount a package? I can't seem to find it.
[00:06] <Itaku> Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
[00:06] <Itaku> 50% [Working]
[00:06] <Megaqwerty> p34r: sudo chmod 700 filename
[00:06] <Megaqwerty> p34r: assuming it's owned by root
[00:06] <Megaqwerty> no one other than root can see it
[00:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Slart: I'm sure there is a command to umount usb devices that dont show on desktop through gnome terminal, I just dont remember/know what it is?
[00:06] <Itaku> i hsbr 175 upates is that good or bad?
[00:06] <Slart> OmegaCent1: it might be in the samba package.. I just dont know..  unless you're really short on space just install samba.. it won't do you any harm
[00:06] <mike8768> woooooow
[00:06] <levander> I've got a XP box I want to add a hard drive to and install Gutsy so that I can dual boot between the two.  Anyone got a link to good instructions?
[00:06] <mike8768> thanks alot
[00:06] <neverblue> mike8768, that help ?
[00:07] <mike8768> i need to be slapped
[00:07] <neverblue> mike8768, good :)
[00:07] <aaronm> Itaku: Oh so its frozen getting the packages them...Hmmm...I'd double check that your internet to that machine is working fully, then maybe switch the server you use from Main Server to US Server or vice versa.
[00:07] <mike8768> dang ubuntu soooo sweet
[00:07] <Megaqwerty> p34r: sudo chown root:root filename to change ownership to root
[00:07] <neverblue> welcome mike8768 :)
[00:07] <jonny239> i just installed ubuntu tday also got 175 updates
[00:07] <Slart> Pirate_Hunter: unmount is very different from disconnect.. "sudo umount /media/disk" unmounts whatever is at "media/disk"
[00:07] <Itaku> ive never had a problem
[00:07] <p34r> Megaqwerty: what is root:root? can i change that to my ssh username and also root?
[00:07] <jonny239> took about an hour though
[00:07] <p34r> just so i dont have to re-login as root
[00:07] <Itaku> i just reinstalled linux cuz someone hacked me and deleted my /bin
[00:07] <Huffalump> levander, did you install your new hard drive?  if you have, just boot up with the ubuntu CD and during the install, tell it to use that empty disk.
[00:07] <viator> i cant acces my other machine which has a samba share on it
[00:08] <Megaqwerty> p34r: root:root means owned by user root and group root
[00:08] <Slart> MotherDear: isn't there some kind of rescue mode?
[00:08] <viator> i can see it on the network
[00:08] <levander> Huffalump: What about installing grub, is there anything special I do?
[00:08] <viator> but cant connect
[00:08] <p34r> Megaqwerty: then i can make a group 'root' and add my user to it?
[00:08] <Megaqwerty> p34r: you can change it to root:username because I think ubuntu makes a group for every user
[00:08] <MotherDear> OK, so after installation, I took out CD and restarted like the wizard told me to, then while the computer was booting up, the first message it gave me was Loadinbg GNU. Loading GNU Please Wait... and then it freezes at that for more then 3 hours, (after that I shut it down)
[00:08] <jonny239> how can i login as as root from login screen in ubuntu?
[00:08] <Megaqwerty> p34r: there is already a group named root
[00:08] <Huffalump> levander, by default grub will -at boot- give you the option between ubuntu and windows.  you can edit a simple text file to change defaults.
[00:08] <MotherDear> anyone?
[00:09] <p34r> Megaqwerty: ok great, ty
[00:09] <viator> do i have to add this laptops ip or name to the samba file
[00:09] <Megaqwerty> p34r: you're welcome
[00:09] <Slart> jonny239: you can't.. and you shouldn't.. use sudo
[00:09] <Huffalump> levander, I did what you're doing several times last year when I was testing Ubuntu on different machines.  It works pretty painlessly.
[00:09] <VideoGoBoom> Hello, Everyone. :-)
[00:09] <p34r> Megaqwerty: and i just do the sudo chown line, i dont need the chmod 700 line anymore, right?
[00:09] <Slart> !root | jonny239
[00:09] <ubotu> jonny239: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[00:09] <jonny239> but u cant login to root from login screen
[00:09] <Megaqwerty> p34r: no, you still do. the chmod line makes it so no one but the owner can see it
[00:09] <MotherDear> OK, so after installation, I took out CD and restarted like the wizard told me to, then while the computer was booting up, the first message it gave me was Loadinbg GNU. Loading GNU Please Wait... and then it freezes at that for more then 3 hours, (after that I shut it down)
[00:09] <Slart> jonny239: no, you can't.. and you shouldn't.. as in "do not do it"
[00:09] <Huffalump> levander, take a walkthrough here -> http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/Installing_Ubuntu_with_Windows_Dual-Boot
[00:09] <iclebyte> !flash
[00:09] <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
[00:09] <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.
[00:10] <VideoGoBoom> I am logged in via a LiveCD. How do I fix my video/screen resolution? I messed with a setting and now it is blank when I boot Ubuntu.
[00:10] <p34r> Megaqwerty: but group 'root' can?
[00:10] <Pirate_Hunter> Slart: how different? let me explain i plugged in my n73 but it didnt pick it up in media so i needed to disconnect it before unplugging the cable... however ubuntu knows it plugged in but it doesnt show any interface... thats why it has to be done through terminal
[00:10] <levander> Huffalump: The other complication is that after I finish getting my Linux box all right (I have several things I have to configure) I want to take out the XP hard disk.  You think the only complication will be reconfiguring grub?
[00:10] <Megaqwerty> p34r: so you might actually want the line to read chmod 770 if you want the group members to be able to see it too
[00:10] <Slart> jonny239: log in as your normal user and use sudo for root stuff
[00:10] <jonny239> i changed the root pasword but i need to be able to acess it through login screen
[00:10] <Huffalump> levander, I would agree with that
[00:10] <neverblue> MotherDear, how many times have you started/restarted your system ?
[00:10] <p34r> Megaqwerty: how would i specify which group that would be? would it assume group 'root'? or what
[00:10] <MotherDear> I've re-installed about 3 times now.
[00:10] <levander> Huffalump: cool, tx, I'm trying it.  Guess I just needed to verify my suspicions with someone.
[00:10] <OmegaCent1> Anyone know how to turn off "TAPPING" on touchpads in linux?
[00:11] <Huffalump> levander, if you transplant that hard drive to a different system.... keep in mind Windows has some setting you have to change
[00:11] <Slart> jonny239: why do you want to login as root?
[00:11] <Dr_Willis> !touchpad
[00:11] <ubotu> For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[00:11] <Megaqwerty> p34r: by changing the ownership of the file. chown root:root file means the file will be owned by the user root, and the group root
[00:11] <neverblue> MotherDear, always stopping at the same location, after the install ?
[00:11] <levander> Huffalump: did you say something to me right before I logged out?
[00:11] <MotherDear> Install, complete
[00:11] <p34r> Megaqwerty: so chmod it 770 then do the chown?
[00:11] <MotherDear> Loading GNU
[00:11] <Huffalump> levander, I forget the name of the setting, but if you don't change it then the Windows hard drive will not recognize it's new environment.  So, check on Windows forums about transplanting hard drives.
[00:11] <MotherDear> Loading GNU Please Wait...
[00:12] <Megaqwerty> p34r: right. that should work
[00:12] <neverblue> MotherDear, so the install appeared to be fine (please respond with only one line) ?
[00:12] <MotherDear> and those are the first 2 and only 2 messages that ever appear/
[00:12] <Huffalump> levander, previous message -> if you transplant that hard drive to a different system.... keep in mind Windows has some setting you have to change
[00:12] <syn`> Hey all. Brand new to Linux, have an ATI Radeon 9200. Made a thread on the forums asking for help, someone told me I had to do something about making a new kernel to get the drivers to work. Have a few questions, tho.
[00:12] <levander> Huffalump: Thanks, but the XP drive is getting reformatted in a different box after I'm doing with it.
[00:12] <Huffalump> gotcha
[00:12] <Huffalump> good luck and have fun
[00:12] <Megaqwerty> p34r: note that by the user doing sudo nano file, they can still read it because sudo gives them root privileges, and you can't hide anything from root.
[00:12] <levander> Huffalump: I didn't know that you could move XP hard disks around.  That might be handy for the future.
[00:12] <MotherDear> Yes, Install was fine.
[00:12] <Slart> Pirate_Hunter: I don't think the usb protocol can disconnect things.. you can finish writing to them.. you can yank the usb plug from the usb socket.. you can unmount usb drives.. but I don't think you can "disconnect" stuff from usb
[00:12] <p34r> Megaqwerty: oh...
[00:13] <levander> Huffalump: I gotta shut down to take a hard disk outta this box.  Anything else?
[00:13] <neverblue> MotherDear, put the CD back in, run memtest, to confirm your RAM is working fine (it does take sometime to test)
[00:13] <VideoGoBoom> Could someone point me in the right direction as to where my video resolution files would be?
[00:13] <Huffalump> levander, nope I think you have your head on straight
[00:13] <Itaku> Megaqwerty on the topic of sudo im trying to eject a cd and it says only root can unmount this device. how do i do this?
[00:13] <levander> Huffalump: cool, thanks
[00:13] <p34r> Megaqwerty: ok well i guess i'll just use another password not my main one then
[00:13] <Megaqwerty> Itaku: sudo eject
[00:13] <Dr_Willis> !fixres | VideoGoBoom
[00:13] <ubotu> VideoGoBoom: 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
[00:13] <MotherDear> K, brb.
[00:13] <Megaqwerty> Itaku: or sudo umount devicename
[00:14] <VideoGoBoom> Thanks Dr_Willis. :-)
[00:14] <Pirate_Hunter> Slart: maybe you're right but i dont believe thats the case it wouldnt make sense but than what do i know :3 well will check online just encase when im done with this. But thanx for the response
[00:15] <Megaqwerty> p34r: well, the passwords are encrypted
[00:15] <Slart> Pirate_Hunter: hehe.. let me know what you find out..
[00:15] <Megaqwerty> p34r: the passwd file doesn't contain the plaintext password
[00:15] <p34r> Megaqwerty: not in svn's passwd file :(
[00:15] <p34r> Megaqwerty: i asked #svn and they said i can't encrypt it which is dumb
[00:15] <Megaqwerty> p34r: I'm not sure what that means...
[00:15] <Megaqwerty> p34r: but the user's password is encrypted in a root only file called /etc/shadow
[00:15] <wan> hi all
[00:15] <Pirate_Hunter> Slart: will do so if you're still on
[00:16] <syn`> Hey all. Brand new to Linux, have an ATI Radeon 9200. Made a thread on the forums asking for help, someone told me I had to do something about making a new kernel to get the drivers to work. Have a few questions, tho.
[00:16] <p34r> Megaqwerty: i'm talking about subversion
[00:16] <p34r> Megaqwerty: how can i revert the chown and chmod for the files i was working on :P
[00:16] <neverblue> syn`, before you get into it, have you tried to use the restricted drivers manager to install the drivers for your card ?
[00:16] <Jay-Oh-En> are there any programs to mod v3 razrs (the phones)
[00:17] <viator> i get an error saying homes directory is missing
[00:17] <viator> or has been deleted
[00:17] <wan> ??
[00:17] <pike_> syn`: the 9200 is very well supported i wouldnt think youd need to worry about the kernel certainly not have to recompile
[00:17] <viator> when trying to connect via samba
[00:17] <Megaqwerty> p34r: if the file was readable by everyone, you probably want chmod 755
[00:17] <viator> where should the homes file be anyway?
[00:17] <syn`> everytime i click it, it tells me that my system doesn't require any. but everyone's told me to do that. could it be that i don't have the onboard gfx card disabled?
[00:17] <Megaqwerty> p34r: and if it was owned by your user, you should probably do chown username:username
[00:18] <syn`> i ran envy, by the way, and when i hit the ati driver, it told me my card required legacy drivers and legacy wasn't supported by my OS :( using 7.10
[00:18] <jonny239> ok i got it i changed the root password then added root to the login window user list now i can run the package that i need to run as root
[00:18] <bjames> Slart: I've been hacking at it for a while and there doesn't appear to be a simple solution, maybe a project for another day
[00:18] <MotherDear> NeverBlue, All It's done so far is close main menu and start a prompt, and just sit there.
[00:18] <bjames> cheers for the help
[00:18] <Slart> bjames: you're welcome
[00:18] <pike_> syn`: use the restricted managager in place of envy in 7.10 and above
[00:18] <pike_> syn`: envy is no longer supported by us at all
[00:18] <neverblue> MotherDear, did you boot from the CD and see a menu ?
[00:18] <syn`> ahh. okay.
[00:18] <MotherDear> yes,
[00:19] <MotherDear> then I chose memory test.
[00:19] <neverblue> MotherDear, and you selected memtest
[00:19] <MotherDear> Ya.
[00:19] <viator> ghomes dir shoud be all home directories
[00:19] <neverblue> MotherDear, then let it run :P
[00:19] <viator> woner why it isnt working
[00:19] <syn`> okay, so then what do i do when i hit it and it tells my my system requires no restricted drivers? i have an integrated card, and then my ati. but the integrated isn't disabled.
[00:19] <MotherDear> Should there be text
[00:19] <syn`> i don't know if that matters. i never disabled in windows.
[00:19] <MotherDear> all i see is the flashing _
[00:19] <neverblue> MotherDear, there should be results, yes
[00:19] <Keigo-kun> Is it possible to use .kss screensavers in Gnome? I found a really nice one called kanjisaver
[00:20] <smultron> why do some capital letter "M"s look bolded in Firefox?
[00:20] <neverblue> syn`, how many video cards/monitors does your system have?
[00:20] <pike_> syn`: ive heard the open source drivers are best for 9200 so you might not require any.. im sorry im not familiar at all with ati but i know the open source drivers for that model work well
[00:20] <syn`> i have the integrated card, my radeon 9200.
[00:20] <neverblue> MotherDear, run the tool to confirm the CD is good
[00:20] <syn`> and just one monitor.
[00:20] <Itaku> umount: /media/cdrom0: device is busy
[00:20] <Itaku> umount: /media/cdrom0: device is busy <--- how do i make it un-busy?
[00:20] <Itaku> or find what process is using ti
[00:20] <neverblue> syn`, so its enabled if you can see anything on your display :)
[00:21] <syn`> well, when i hook it up, i get nothing. other than envy, i haven't tried to install any drivers. i just plugged it in and it's black.
[00:21] <neverblue> !evy | syn`
[00:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about evy - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[00:21] <syn`> same on the 9250 i tried putting in. i just can't get into the restricted drivers for some reason with how my setup is.
[00:21] <neverblue> !envy | syn`
[00:21] <ubotu> syn`: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[00:21] <Itaku> umount: /media/cdrom0: device is busy <--- how do i make it un-busy or find what process is using it?
[00:21] <neverblue> syn`, is this a new install ?
[00:21] <syn`> yea, completely fresh.
[00:22] <crdlb> syn`: you do not need the ATI driver with a 9200
[00:22] <LjL> Itaku: lsof | grep cdrom
[00:22] <crdlb> and you cannot use it
[00:22] <neverblue> syn`, and the install didnt recognize that card ?
[00:22] <Enron> Hi just wondering i'm trying to install snapapi26-module package on debian, I was able to do it on ubuntu but debian couldn't find it. I added ubuntu's source list and updated apt-get and tried again still can't find
[00:22] <Enron> can someone help
[00:22] <crdlb> syn`: ubuntu will automatically use the only driver available
[00:22] <syn`> never said anything about it. when i look @ hardware manager it shows up as recognized. but that's pretty much it.
[00:22] <neverblue> there yeah go syn` thanks crdlb
[00:22] <LjL> Enron: 1) this is #ubuntu, not #debian 2) adding an ubuntu repository to debian isn't any better than adding a debian repository to ubuntu 3) both things are incredibly bad
[00:23] <pike_> syn`: or you can use vesa driver for just 2d alt-ctrl-f2 then login then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select vesa then enter for everything else and then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[00:23] <neverblue> ok, im going home
[00:23] <InGunsWeTrust> Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu
[00:23] <neverblue> laters
[00:23] <Enron> so how do I install the package if ubuntu doesn't include it
[00:23] <Enron> LjL
[00:23] <Itaku> LjL how long does grep take?
[00:23] <neverblue> Itaku, as long as you like
[00:23] <Rockoman> Hey can someone help me with getting World of Warcraft to work on Ubuntu?
[00:23] <syn`> since we got the drivers situated, i guess. is there a way to get display stuck off my integrated? that's what my monitors on right now, not my radeon.
[00:23] <syn`> sorry if these are stupid questions, by the way. all new to me.
[00:23] <LjL> Itaku, that command should take a very short time.
[00:23] <Itaku> but how long does it really take
[00:23] <tuXXXinator> does anyone know of a gui for airsnort?
[00:24] <Itaku> well
[00:24] <Itaku> its going on 2 mins
[00:24] <LjL> Enron: but you said you *could* install it on ubuntu?
[00:24] <neverblue> Itaku, then let it finish, and find out just how long it will take :)
[00:24] <Enron> Ljl when I do apt-get install snapapi26-module it found it
[00:24] <crdlb> syn`: disable the integrated video card in your BIOS
[00:24] <LjL> !info snapapi26-module
[00:24] <ubotu> Package snapapi26-module does not exist in gutsy
[00:24] <syn`> hah. i knew that was what it was going to be. gotta update my BIOS, no place to do it in current.
[00:24] <Enron> moduels
[00:25] <Itaku> i need my cdrom unbusy
[00:25] <Enron> modules*
[00:25] <InGunsWeTrust> itaku: how are you using grep. Usually when you grep something it is used in the fassion "find / | grep fileimfinding
[00:25] <syn`> thanks so much :D
[00:25] <LjL> !info snapapi26-modules
[00:25] <ubotu> Package snapapi26-modules does not exist in gutsy
[00:25] <Enron> !info snapapi26-modules
[00:25] <crdlb> syn`: you can do it another way then
[00:25] <Itaku> i did how LjL told me to
[00:25] <syn`> oh, if that would be any easier.
[00:25] <InGunsWeTrust> itaku: and grep is instant but the find may take a while
[00:25] <Itaku> grep cdrom
[00:25] <Enron> apt-cache search snapapi
[00:25] <Enron> snapapi26-modules - Acronis SnapAPI Linux kernel 2.6 modules
[00:25] <LjL> Enron, not on Gutsy.
[00:25] <InGunsWeTrust> Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu
[00:25] <Enron> snapapi26-modules is already the newest version.
[00:25] <crdlb> syn`: in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, in the Driver section, it should have a BusID line which tells it which card to use
[00:26] <Itaku> is there a way to force the cdrom to get unbusy?
[00:26] <LjL> Itaku, i told you to do « lsof | grep cdrom». not just grep cdrom
[00:26] <Enron> LjL so would it be that I have an entree in source.list that might have the package
[00:26] <Enron> thats why I can
[00:26] <syn`> just switch that over to my ati?
[00:26] <Itaku> i did lsof before it first
[00:26] <LjL> Enron, if it says it's already the newest version, it means it's installed.
[00:26] <Enron> LjL yes thats in ubuntu
[00:26] <InGunsWeTrust> Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu
[00:26] <Enron> but I need it in debian :(
[00:26] <crdlb> syn`: and change the Driver line to "ati", yes (you can get the proper BusID from 'lspci | grep VGA')
[00:26] <DigitalNinja> I tried compiling the latest kernel from kernel.org. It won't boot. Is there a trick to compiling a new kernel for Dapper?
[00:26] <Enron> #debian nobody has any info so i'm just trying to ask here if someone can help
[00:26] <Itaku> it got unbusy!!!!
[00:26] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, why on earth are you?
[00:27] <LjL> Enron: yes, it most probably means that. type « apt-cache policy snapapi26-modules » to find out where it comes from.
[00:27] <simion314> hi, i tried the other desktops xubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop, and i found that i can;t uninstall them, i uninstall but the uninstall frees only 50 Kb of space, why?
[00:27] <syn`> dude, you're amazing. i love you.
[00:27] <daxroc> Hi all
[00:27] <Dr_Willis> simion314:  because you are unistalling a meta-package.
[00:27] <LjL> Enron: however, i repeat once again, debian and ubuntu packages are NOT necessarily compatible, and using a debian sources.list on ubuntu or vice versa may have VERY bad effects
[00:27] <Enron> LjL this is what the output is http://phpfi.com/290280
[00:27] <viator> my samba shres permission is 755 it says its read only
[00:28] <viator> whats read write?
[00:28] <syn`> well thanks so much for the help. gonna restart and try to get this to work.
[00:28] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: I've got a system with a core 2 6300. On dapper I only see one processor. I gutsy I see two. I would like to use gutsy server but the software I'm using requires Dapper.
[00:28] <georgy_28> viator :766
[00:28] <PriceChild> digital_, install the -smp kernel
[00:28] <LjL> Enron: that means that you don't have the repository you got it from anymore. (or that it's no longer in that repository)
[00:28] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: I did that. No luck
[00:29] <simion314> Dr_Willis: then i must uninstall  all small packages manualy from synaptic
[00:29] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: With the SMP Kernel I still see only one processor.
[00:29] <Itaku> ok now i need help installing g++
[00:29] <LjL> !build-essential > Itaku    (Itaku, see the private message from Ubotu)
[00:29] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, -686-smp?
[00:29] <Dr_Willis> simion314:  basiciall;y yes.  There might be some sites that list all the packages to remove. I rarely remove anything.
[00:29] <Itaku> its a problem with apt-get
[00:29] <blaylock> itaku, apt-search -n g++
[00:29] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: I tried that one. I still see only one processor.
[00:29] <daxroc> Would there be any problems for ubuntu on an 8core system ( 2x quad ) 8+gb ram generally speaking?
[00:29] <luddite> Hi all
[00:29] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, I would suggest going gutsy, then upgrading to hardy in a couple of months (after tests) and leaving it there as its LTS.
[00:30] <pike_> daxroc: that would...rock
[00:30] <InGunsWeTrust> Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu
[00:30] <LjL> Dr_Willis, simion314: however, you can try "sudo apt-get autoremove" after removing kubuntu-desktop. sometimes, it seems to not have effect for some people... i don't know why... but it's worth trying. also, for Kubuntu at least, removing "kdelibs4c2a" mostly does the trick.
[00:30] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, a new kernel on dapper will bring a lot of problems
[00:30] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: I have software that requires Dapper
[00:30] <daxroc> pike_: Do you know from experience?
[00:30] <LjL> Itaku: what problem is it?
[00:30] <danbhfive> LjL also there is gtkorphan
[00:30] <luddite> what is the URL of the website that allows you to install ubuntu(i think it was ubuntu anyway) from the web with one click over the top of windows to effectively remove windows?
[00:31] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: Well, the big problem at the moment is that it won't boot with the new kernel.
[00:31] <Itaku> sudo: apt-search: command not found
[00:31] <acidfire2008> was wondering if anyone could help me out.. Ive installed no-ip in terminal threw ssh term and i need to change the host for it so im wondering whats the command to update no-ip?
[00:31] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, what software is this?
[00:31] <pike_> daxroc: i cant see a problem youd want 64 bit and the generic kernel supports smp
[00:31] <reya276> Does anyone know if Gutsy supports, Wacom Bamboo Tablets yet?
[00:31] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: Zimbra
[00:31] <DigitalNinja> it's an email server package
[00:31] <Itaku> w/e im idle now
[00:31] <LjL> Itaku: 1) there is no valid reason on earth why you would need to use "sudo" to just *search* for packages. 2) it's apt-cache search
[00:31] <LjL> !apt > Itaku    (Itaku, see the private message from Ubotu)
[00:31] <xsystemx> I am trying to choose an ftp daemon? Which one do you guys prefer ?
[00:32] <daxroc> pike_: yeah going all out on upgrade thought I would do some reasearch first :>
[00:32] <LjL> !polls > xsystemx    (xsystemx, see the private message from Ubotu)
[00:32] <Dr_Willis> xsystemx:  its prboberly best to not use ftp unless you have to. ssh can transfer files securely
[00:32] <georgy_28> acidfire2008, : try in a terminal : sudo dpkg-reconfigure no-ip
[00:32] <aethereal> NICK aethereal

[00:33] <Omegacenti> Anyone have any information on attempting to map a network drive on linux?
[00:33] <DigitalNinja> Can someone tell me if I should see two processor on Dapper. Again, I have a Core 2 6300.
[00:33] <acidfire2008> Shutting down dynamic address update: no-ip.
[00:33] <acidfire2008> Starting dynamic address update: no-ip.
[00:33] <pike_> DigitalNinja: using generic kernel? cat /proc/cpuinfo
[00:33] <daxroc> pike_: any known hw pitfalls I should avoid, you know of ?
[00:33] <acidfire2008> georgy_28 that do it/
[00:33] <acidfire2008> ?
[00:33] <patrock> Omegacenti: nfs ot smbfs?
[00:33] <Omegacenti> patrock: I am sorry?
[00:33] <DigitalNinja> pike_: I only see one processor
[00:33] <tyone> guys, how do i set my ubuntu to boot into the login screen ??
[00:34] <DigitalNinja> pike_: I'm using the SMP kernel
[00:34] <pike_> daxroc: 64 bit is mostly software pitfalls and those have been largely sorted out. desktop stuff occationally may require chroot
[00:34] <pike_> tyone: auto login?
[00:34] <tyone> dno
[00:34] <tyone> just login screen
[00:34] <Dr_Willis> tyone:  if you mean the console. You disable the gdm or kdm service
[00:34] <pike_> tyone: gksu gdmsetup in a terminal and enable it
[00:35] <tyone> mine boots to "dos@
[00:35] <olouzada> tem Brasileiros?
[00:35] <daxroc> pike_: as in 32bit chroot ?
[00:35] <LjL> !br | olouzada
[00:35] <ubotu> olouzada: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado.
[00:35] <blaylock> anyone having issues with firefox <IP_ADDRESS> freezing in kubuntu?
[00:35] <pike_> tyone: oh.. sudo update-rc.d -f gdm defaults  assuming gdm is installed

[00:35] <DCorleone> Hey there.  Got a problem with gnome-applet-install.  It starts up in the wrong language.  Couldn't find any .conf for it anywhere.
[00:35] <DCorleone> gnome-app-install rather
[00:35] <pike_> DigitalNinja: dunno ive heard it mostly just works.
[00:35] <olouzada> aqui não tem Ubuntu-br como eu faço pra colocar?
[00:36] <jonny239> thanks 4 the help guys
[00:36] <LjL> olouzada: escribe /join #ubuntu-br
[00:36] <daxroc> pike_: no problem there , thanks Much appreciate your help
[00:36] <DCorleone> Anybody know how I can set that to English?  Seems like everything else is fine, just that one program.
[00:36] <DigitalNinja> pike_: What kernel and processor? I did an install on a Xeon server and got both cores to work.
[00:36] <DigitalNinja> That was dapper
[00:36] <acidfire2008> i tried the command georgy_28 told me but no luck on my dns connecting is there anything else i should do anyone/
[00:36] <DCorleone> Unfortunately that just happens to be one of the more useful programs.
[00:36] <acidfire2008> ?
[00:37] <luddite> ah -got it -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/install.exe
[00:37] <daxroc> Night all
[00:37] <tyone> System startup links for /etc/init.d/gdm already exist.
[00:37] <daxroc> Have a good one
[00:37] <tyone> says that when i set to defaults
[00:37] <pike_> DigitalNinja: if it doesnt id check forums for that proc i suppose it could be a bug but ive never been fortunate enough to play around with muliticore too much on ubuntu
[00:38] <pike_> tyone: so does sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart just work to take you to login
[00:38] <DigitalNinja> pike_: Searching

[00:40] <bbeeche2> Theres a couple of good guides for my model
[00:40] <bbeeche2> well
[00:40] <bbeeche2> I think once I get it working wired I can do it myself
[00:40] <bbeeche2> but all the guides for this model depend on lan working
[00:40] <foug> mavi-: PriceChild thanks, i am trying to change the colour of user@host, my friend showed me the line of code to put, but i forget where to put it. In the PS1 value?
[00:40] <bbeeche2> and mine isn't working out of the box
[00:40] <bruenig> plug the wire in, open a terminal and do "dhclient eth0"
[00:40] <bbeeche2> The green light isn't even coming on when I insert the cord
[00:40] <bbeeche2> k
[00:41] <bruenig> if the green light isn't coming on, that is probably a hardware issue
[00:41] <bbeeche2> Hmm
[00:41] <bbeeche2> I might be
[00:41] <bbeeche2> it
[00:41] <bbeeche2> the software seems to find it
[00:41] <georgy_28> acidfire2008: sudo no-ip -c then restart with sudo no-ip
[00:41] <bbeeche2> lspci picks it up
[00:41] <bruenig> well does dhclient get an ip or not?
[00:42] <bbeeche2> umm
[00:42] <bbeeche2> looks like no
[00:42] <InGunsWeTrust> Is there any way to open p7m files used by outlook express in Ubuntu

[00:45] <MotherDear> Guys, what IRC do I ghet for Ubuntu
[00:46] <viator> im trying to copy a file folder from my laptop to a samba share on a desktop
[00:46] <BlueFusion> xchat
[00:46] <viator> and it keeps giving me errors
[00:46] <MotherDear> k
[00:46] <Starnestommy> MotherDear: xchat, irssi, or konversation
[00:46] <viator> says access denied
[00:46] <viator> the samba share on th desktop says its read write to everyone
[00:47] <tcpdumpgod> viator then you need to modify permissions on the samba share.
[00:47] <laptop> hi friends can you tell me how i reproduce a picture
[00:47] <blaylock> MotherDear: kopete works just fine
[00:47] <pike_> laptop: from memory?
[00:47] <tcpdumpgod> viator http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=34795074
[00:47] <viator> they are currently 766
[00:47] <tcpdumpgod> viator not the folder permissions, the samba mount permissions.
[00:47] <tcpdumpgod> inside smb.conf viator
[00:47] <zoom> gimp ?
[00:48] <viator> the samba permissions
[00:48] <viator> are 766
[00:48] <bbeeche2> well, can anyone tell me how to get wireless working on a laptop, without a current working internet connection on it? the lspci alredy picks it up
[00:48] <viator> im looking at it in webmin
[00:48] <MotherDear> Guys.
[00:48] <tcpdumpgod> viator once again, you need to modify the samba configuration to allow USERS to write to the share.
[00:48] <MotherDear> Ok, so I downloaded the Installer for Ubuntu 6.06 LTS and after Following the whole guide on burning it and checking it's validity, I ran it on start up, went through the install wizard once it booted, and used my entire drive for it, then it told me to restart after installing, and once i did that I took out the CD and let it oot up into Ubuntu, while it was booting up, It froze at Loading GNU.

[00:57] <Jids> a friend of mine is trying to install Ubuntu on his laptop, he's got winxp on the first partition, vista on the second (dunno why), OSX on the third, and he's trying to put it on the fourth, but it keeps giving him the error: "Executing 'grub-install (hd0)' failed\n This is a fatal error." ... anyone able to help?
[00:57] <muesli> pike_: ?
[00:58] <pike_> muesli: i was bracing for mass paste
[00:58] <oxeimon> can someone help me install the nvidia drivers for gutsy? I just swapped out my ATI card for a nvidia 8800GT, and the restricted driver manager doesn't seem to recognize it...
[00:58] <muesli> pike_: i'm not silly :P
[00:58] <zoom> bbeeche2, iwconfig eth1
[00:58] <muesli> pike_: but pastebin'ing a one-liner would be silly ;-)
[00:59] <muesli> anyways, i forgot to mention it's on hardy
[00:59] <bbeeche2> iwconfig eth1?

[01:02] <zoom> Gearsmith, no Shockwave support with linux
[01:02] <viator> my soamba conf doesnt have users in it anyway
[01:02] <patrock> Gearsmith: The only way I can get shockwave to work is w/ie in wine
[01:02] <viator> samba
[01:02] <two_bits> the error looks like this:

[01:02] <Gearsmith> Why isn't there Shockwave support in Linux?
[01:02] <Odd-rationale> Gearsmith: nope
[01:03] <Jids> the laptop is provided by our university, so it had XP on the first partition of the drive and the other partition he partitioned to install Vista and MacOSX, and he's trying to install Ubuntu on the remaining partition
[01:03] <viator> gearsmith dont ask us ask adobe
[01:03] <two_bits> And I'm not quite sure what to do in this situation
[01:03] <Odd-rationale> Gearsmith: You need fireofx or ie on wine
[01:03] <zoom> adobe sux
[01:03] <viator> gearsmith the mac version only works in rosetta

[01:03] <Gearsmith> Can I install the Windows version of FF without installing the Linux version?
[01:04] <Odd-rationale> Gearsmith: How will you download it?
[01:04] <anas> can some body  help me .. why there is a diffrent in colors and fonts between  : (xmms, amsn) and (vlc/emesene/kopete and other programs ) ?
[01:04] <Gearsmith> Without uninstalling*
[01:04] <matthew> gearsmith: ?
[01:04] <two_bits> No one has any ideas?
[01:04] <Odd-rationale> Gearsmith: Yes.
[01:04] <Odd-rationale> Gearsmith: The windows version of FF will install using wine.
[01:04] <anas> can some body  help me .. why there is a diffrent in colors and fonts between  : (xmms, amsn) and (vlc/emesene/kopete and other programs ) ?
[01:04] <georgy28> two_bits : sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:05] <rich4> I'm running on the live cd for ubuntu, and gparted won't run because it needs root, qtparted wont for the same reason. Any ideas?
[01:05] <branko> Unable to unmount the selected volume.
 umount: it seems /media/cdrom0 is mounted multiple times
[01:05] <Jids> preaction: the laptop is provided by our university, so it had XP on the first partition of the drive and the other partition he partitioned to install Vista and MacOSX, and he's trying to install Ubuntu on the remaining partition
[01:05] <Odd-rationale> Gearsmith: so make sure you have wine
[01:05] <preaction> Jids, what's he running for a bootloader currently? are you sure you need grub on the MBR? maybe grub can just install itself to hd(0,3)
[01:05] <Gearsmith> I have WINE.
[01:05] <preaction> Jids, and i heard you the first time, thanks
[01:05] <Gearsmith> Okay, thanks, installed it.
[01:05] <rainwalker> hey if you install restricted drivers while using the live cd, how do you use them?
[01:05] <Gearsmith> But why is the font so weird on the Windows FF?
[01:05] <two_bits> wow, that did it. Thanks georgy
[01:06] <jdh6403> cuz windows is just weird
[01:06] <Jids> sorry
[01:06] <viator> because its windows 2000 style
[01:06] <preaction> Gearsmith, because your windows machine has different fonts and a different way of rendering those fonts
[01:06] <Omegacenti> Anyone know how to mount an smb share permanently in a user friendly manner?
[01:06] <georgy28> two_bits : no pb

[01:07] <Gearsmith> Can I install the fonts in WINE and will that fix my font problem with FF?
[01:07] <Omegacenti> preaction: I've been there, not too terribly user friendly :(
[01:07] <anas> can some body  help me .. why there is a diffrent in colors and fonts between  : (xmms, amsn) and (vlc/emesene/kopete and other programs ) ?
[01:07] <rich4> How can I get root on live cd?
[01:07] <preaction> Omegacenti, meaning what? you can't do it? what happens when you try?
[01:07] <preaction> rich4, sudo -i <- root shell
[01:07] <andresj> "1,6,11,16,21,26,31,36,41,46,51,56 * * * * /path/to/my/program &" will this run it every 5 minutes? 7:06 already passed and it wasn run...
[01:07] <Jids> preaction, he's using the XP bootloader
[01:07] <Dr_Willis> anas:  not all of those apps use the same widgetset/libs/theme settings.
[01:08] <preaction> andresj, why not */5 * * * * instead?
[01:08] <olskolirc> hi hi.  how do I have my friend enable ssh daemon so that I can connect
[01:08] <Omegacenti> preaction: Just looks so intimidating to the point that I am afraid something will break if I try and perform what that comunity doc has said to do. It does not look like it support 7.10 Gutsy users.
[01:08] <Gearsmith> Can I install the fonts in WINE and will that fix my font problem with FF?
[01:08] <Dargor> I have a problem when installing Ubuntu 7.10.. When it should bootup to the GUI (using Live CD)  it freezes trying to launch local bootscripts... anyone know what to do?
[01:08] <andresj> preaction: because i don't know crontab very well :) I'll change it now.
[01:08] <preaction> Jids, the xp bootloader loads OSX?
[01:08] <georgy28> olskolirc, : sudo apt-get install ssh
[01:08] <anas> Dr_Willis : could u tell me where can i get more of these information ?
[01:09] <olskolirc> hes on suse GeorgeA
[01:09] <Dr_Willis> anas:  its just how the old programs work. they are not all gnome native programs. so they dont use the gnome fonts or other settings.
[01:09] <dehspehl> Gearsmith: if you are running FF in wine, but I don't see why you would be
[01:09] <olskolirc> oops
[01:09] <olskolirc> he's on suse georgy28
[01:09] <solexious> Can any one feilda samba question?
[01:09] <Jids> preaction: OSX uses Darwin ... legal
[01:09] <georgy28> olskolirc, : he have to install the packege open-ssh
[01:09] <Gearsmith> Can I install the fonts in WINE and will that fix my font problem with FF?
[01:10] <anas> Dr_Willis : tank you very mach ..
[01:10] <georgy28> olskolirc, : server
[01:10] <jtt> solexious, just ask and see if it gets answered
[01:10] <anas> Dr_Willis : thank you
[01:10] <olskolirc> whats the name of the open-ssh server
[01:10] <BoostedSS> whats the name of the utility that manages the wireless better than the one that comes with ubuntu?
[01:10] <preaction> Jids, which isn't what i asked, though using Darwin is legal yes. Using the OSX GUI and such without a license is not. you can install grub to /dev/hda4 (or whatever the ubuntu partition is) and try to get XP bootloader to see it somehow
[01:11] <georgy28> olskolirc, : i don't know
[01:11] <jetscreamer> there are windows boot loader grub images
[01:11] <th0r> olskolirc give me a sec
[01:11] <solexious> I've made a samba shared public no auth folder, but I cant seem to change that the folder name is public when viewed from a windows box
[01:11] <jetscreamer> in sources... least in debian sources
[01:11] <dehspehl> having grub or lilo chain it is probably the better way though
[01:11] <olskolirc> ok th0r
[01:11] <jtt> olskolirc, openssh-server
[01:11] <andresj> using "* * * * * /path/my/program &" doesn seem to wrok...
[01:11] <th0r> olskolirc beat me to it ... ^^^
[01:12] <preaction> andresj, why do you have the &?
[01:12] <georgy28> thor : well done
[01:12]  * olskolirc lap dances jtt
[01:12] <Jids> preaction, well, he has a license, he bought a separate copy
[01:12] <andresj> preaction: mmm... to not hang crontab
[01:12] <Abyssal>  according to this document http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon-lamp-server-setup.html i now can see the username and password prompt in my browser window. :-) yes!!! now i would proceed with the fine tuning for this forum software http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?P=e92acd400c2ad8d4f1fea42d0a4acf96&topic=8 fine?
[01:12] <th0r> andresj you don't have enough *
[01:12] <solexious> [Rephrase] I've made a samba shared public no auth folder, but I cant seem to change that the folder name is "public" when viewed from a windows box
[01:13] <dehspehl> could one _technically_ run an OS X program under Linux?
[01:13] <favicon>  http://www.pornofamosas.es !!.
[01:13] <favicon>  http://www.pornofamosas.es !!.
[01:13] <th0r> andresj actually you have too many...you need to define when the program is run
[01:13] <Dargor> when I try to install Ubuntu 7.10 it freezes when loading the /local Bootscripts    anyone know what to do?
[01:14] <andresj> th0r, i want it every minute... maybe i need to run something to update crontab? (I edited it with crontab -e)
[01:14] <dehspehl> this means having Mach-O compat, at the minimum. But I don't see why that would be too hard
[01:14] <BoostedSS> I know there is some gui that makes managing the wireless networks easier, does anyone know what I'm talking about?
[01:14] <th0r> andresj I write a text file (cron.txt) and then load it using crontab -l.
[01:15] <preaction> !grub | jids
[01:15] <ubotu> jids: 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
[01:15] <th0r> andresj that way I always have a record of what I am running and can even keep old tasks by commenting them out
[01:15] <preaction> Jids, look under the quick start section. it might give a better error message
[01:15] <Jids> ubotu, neither link will help... 1) it's installing Ubuntu *after* 'doze, and the laptops we're using don't have floppy drives
[01:15] <sc123> Hi there, can someone help me to finish my madwifi installation?
[01:16] <Jids> -.-
[01:16] <eugman> What's the most obscure lnaguage I can compile on ubuntu and run on windows?
[01:16] <sc123> i've installed madwifi, modprobed, ath0 is up
[01:16] <andresj> th0r, mmm... though i think that method won help me alot in this...
[01:16] <preaction> Jids, ubotu is a bot, i told it to send the links. i don't see that you need a floppy drive, just to boot the CD. you'd do this after the installer said it couldn't install grub
[01:16] <sc123> shouldnt I see my wireless connection on the system tray?
[01:17] <Jids> yeah, i realized that it's a bot now...
[01:17] <th0r> andresj maybe not...but it seems to work. I was a little off though..load it with 'crontab <filename>' and display it with crontab -l
[01:17] <preaction> eugman, i don't know of any language you can cross-compile to windows, except maybe certain languages that compile to bytecode (like Java)
[01:17] <trafalgar> would it be correct to move /dev/sda5 from one hard drive to another can using well if you must using an intermediate .bz2 file using "dd if=source | bzip2 > somefile"  to create it and "bzcat somefile | dd of=destination" to copy it to the new drive?
[01:17] <Laurenceb> how do you change screen brightness?
[01:17] <Jids> preaction, he's going to re-do the partition table... removed OSX, and i guess we'll see what happens...
[01:17] <eugman> hmmm
[01:17] <sc123> can someone help me bringing up my wireless device?
[01:18] <BoostedSS> sc123;  I'm working on the same thing lol
[01:18] <preaction> Jids, good luck. for my money i would've invested in some sort of virtualization technique by now, rebooting into various OSes gets annoying
[01:18] <dehspehl> preaction: eugman: can also go for something like Perl, Ruby, Python, Tcl, or something which you don't need to compile
[01:18] <branko> can I start the photoshop from xp partition?
[01:18] <sc123> Ohh BoostedSS... :) Anyproblem till now?
[01:18] <branko> wine doesnt work
[01:18] <branko> its crash
[01:19] <solexious> [Rephrase] I've made a samba shared public no auth folder, but I cant seem to change that the folder name is "public" when viewed from a windows box
[01:19] <telee> if i rip a dvd to my hardrive about on average how much space should it take up ?
[01:19] <eugman> deshspehl, well I'd have to install the envirment on the windows computer. Then again i might jsut write soemthing in python and py2exe it
[01:19] <BoostedSS> sc123;  I have the wireless card recognized, but cant't get it to actually connect to my wep encryption :*(
[01:19] <|ns|nR8> telee, depends if its duel layer dvd
[01:19] <th0r> telee if you store it as a dvd...about 4 GB
[01:20] <sc123> do you have any tutorial there?
[01:20] <|ns|nR8> duel layer dvd is about 9 gig
[01:20] <sc123> cuz after modprobe ath_pci im stuck
[01:20] <telee> th0r, so i used k9copy and most take up about 10 gigs
[01:20] <Jids> preaction, he does have it, but he prefers physical for the power available to the systems...  While he believes VMWware, QEMU, and Parallels are all extremely good when it comes to virtualization, they don't match physical abilities
[01:20] <BoostedSS> sc123; there is supposed to be some gui wireless thing that it supposed to just make it work.  I'm looking now
[01:20] <sc123> what have you done after that? (webpage is good too)
[01:20] <sc123> ok
[01:20] <BloodyScum> i dont know if anyone uses gtk-gnutella, but i have just started useing it and it says i'm firewalled udp and tcp, but i forwarded the ports through my router, i cant figure out why it says that..
[01:20] <telee> th0r, so is there away to make it less ?
[01:20] <th0r> telee you need dvdshrink for dvd or lemonrip for avi 9about 650MB
[01:20] <telee> well i know there is
[01:21] <telee> ok

[01:34] <sc123> so u said to click on the two monitors on the tray

[01:35] <Darkmystere> Can some 1 tell me how i could run a Game Server thing from Ubuntu?  The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:36] <Eyemean> hi got slight problem, i had to reinstall windows so i did, then reinstalled grub, now when i start windows i get NTLDR is missing message
[01:36] <gouki> Darkmystere: For which game exactly do you want to run a server?
[01:36] <acidfire2008> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52214/
[01:36] <|ns|nR8> use dmz instead of port forwarding
[01:36] <acidfire2008> im getting that georgy28
[01:36] <acidfire2008> dont see how to stop or restart it
[01:37] <bod_> Eyemean: http://www.anetforums.com/posts.aspx?ThreadIndex=10606
[01:37] <jdh6403> aznyone have a issue with video media being played seeming to be too dark?
[01:37] <Darkmystere> gouki: Well i made like A Server Its customized from a base Server and then u can broadcast it and people can play like www.dodian.com
[01:37] <jdh6403> happens with a a dvd or avi wmv or whatever
[01:37] <Eyemean> thank you bod_
[01:37] <bod_> Eyemean: no probs
[01:37] <Darkmystere> TGhats an example u need no-ip or himachi to broadcast it
[01:38] <mkr> I have enabled the backports repository and now i am trying to install kde4, while i hve installed most of the packages(sudo aptitude kde4), some packages were not installed. They have entered into an infinite sort of dependecy hell. Installing kde4 requires that I should install kdeamusements-kde4 and other packages and installing amusements thing saya that i can not install these things...
[01:38] <gouki> Well, like |ns|nR8 said. If your router doesn't support port-forwarding, which I'm pretty sure it's required, place it on the DMZ (you should have a option like 'virtual server')
[01:38] <mkr> ...unless i install the KDE4 package. is there any way for me to override the dependency thing and install every single package manually?
[01:38] <gouki> Darkmystere: I don't think it's weird a router with no port-forwarding. But like I said, place it on the DMZ (it's not the best security measure, though)
[01:39] <hdevalence> Is there a Free alternative to unrar
[01:39] <gouki> *I do
[01:39] <levander> Can someone tell me why I am successfully writing to a NTFS drive off the LiveCD?  I thought you had to install ntfs-3g if you wanted to write.
[01:40] <bod_> hdevalence: is that for windows?
[01:40] <x-X-x> why do some games not use my usb sound card ( creative xmod ) even after i have made it the default sound card through asoundconf ?
[01:40] <Starnestommy> levander: I think ntfs-3g might be in the livecd by default, but I'm not sure
[01:40] <hdevalence> bod_: no, the unrar program you can get with Apt
[01:40] <Eyemean> bod_ i dont think any of that applies cause windows was working ok befor ei installed grub
[01:40] <Darkmystere> gouki:Hmm ok is there a way to make Certain programs think that the script that lets u run compiz isnt on because some games cant run if they notice its running?
[01:40] <x-X-x> why do some games not use my usb sound card ( creative xmod ) even after i have made it the default sound card through asoundconf ?
[01:41] <bod_> hdevalence: not sure then m8
[01:41] <Eyemean> could it be somehting with windows being g drive now bod_
[01:41] <levander> Starnestommy: I just mounted the ntfs drive via the regular mount command.  I thought you had to use some ntfs3g-config if you wanted to mount via ntfs-3g?
[01:41] <Starnestommy> x-X-x: not all games use asound
[01:41] <gouki> Darkmystere: Don't know about that
[01:41] <bod_> Eyemean: let me have a quick look
[01:41] <driftwood> i maybe wrong  but i understand that grub and the windows bootloader will occupy some of the same sectors at start of your hard drive , so one will always overwrite and interfer with the other (( am a beginner but did try hard at one stage to research this as Grub had some how totaly screwed up any way of booting into windows ))
[01:41] <Eyemean> ok thank you bod_
[01:42] <driftwood> acidfire , stranger still u can create a new profile for a wifi connection (by clicking on new ). u can even give it the same name as your old one. this IS editable but does not help make connection ( maybe because i had to guess or leave blank some of the settings). sorry of little help here.. consider resetting your wifi to have minimum number of options, edit a new profile in wifi radar ,...
[01:42] <driftwood> ...and connect from there ???
[01:42] <bod_> Eyemean: wot exactly is ur problem?
[01:42] <x-X-x> stranestommy but this game uses alsa ? is there a way ?
[01:42] <ubuntu> is anyone kind enough to help me with my ubuntu problem relating to setting up a wireless connection?
[01:42] <Darkmystere> My problem is i usualy use Avant windows navigator and it needs Compiz running to function
[01:43] <Darkmystere> Ubuntu: I may be able to..
[01:43] <bod_> ubuntu: wots the problem
[01:43] <Eyemean> bod_ i reinstalled windows which is for some reaosn on G drive, it worked fine so i installed grub so i could access ubuntu again, but wen i start windows i getNTLDR  is missing message
[01:43] <ubuntu> well my ubuntu is all up to date, got ndiswrapper, and it shows that there is a wireless network
[01:43] <ubuntu> my network
[01:43] <ubuntu> but it doesn't connect... im guessing my driver is not enabled?
[01:43] <jbinder> I want to install pidgin from source.
[01:44] <chewd> hello?
[01:44] <jbinder> Should I keep the pidgin from apt-get or remove it first?
[01:44] <Darkmystere> Ubuntu: Are you sure you needed ndiswrapper?
[01:44] <ubuntu> i have WMP54G linksys PCI card
[01:44] <ubuntu> yes im sure, I have tried wifi-radar too but it did not work
[01:44] <th0r> jbinder I would remove it first
[01:44] <Darkmystere> ubuntu: Somtimes ndiswrapper messes things up
[01:44] <ubuntu> and ubuntu did not recognize my card
[01:44] <lex0> when i use checkinstall why does it not recognize the command?
[01:44] <bod_> Eyemean: did u try the link in the forum?

[01:46] <alison> um, yes the green light is on
[01:46] <chewd> anybody know how i can set my desktop size to 1280x1024?
[01:46] <sc0123> omg..
[01:46] <Darkmystere> Ubuntu: Ubuntu shows networks when my cards switch is turned off and it wouldnt connect to any and then 3 days later i noticed it was off >.> and turned it on solved my problem
[01:46] <chewd> actually i guess it would be 1280x1024 x2
[01:46] <sc0123> Im back
[01:46] <LinuxPH> ola
[01:46] <bod_> chewd: in the screens and graphics mune
[01:46] <alison> sounds weird darkmystere
[01:46] <sc0123> Ola LinuxPH
[01:47] <alison> darkmystere do you have wireless now?
[01:47] <LinuxPH> olaaaaaaaaaaaa
[01:47] <chewd> bod: that just sets the monitor resolution
[01:47] <bachstudies>
[01:47] <chewd> for some reason the desktop resolution is a different setting
[01:47] <sc0123> LinuxPH: aqui só se deve falar em ingles
[01:47] <lex0> when i use checkinstall why does it not recognize the command?
[01:47] <MrMist> I need help to fix the resolution... I just upgraded to Gibbon, and I'm stuck with an 800x600 res
[01:47] <Darkmystere> alison Yea I was telling Ubuntu to make sure his card was on Because ubuntu shows networks on mine even when its off
[01:48] <alison> i can't get my wireless working either
[01:48] <syn`_> hey everyone. what's the command to find out the busid of one of my gfx cards is?
[01:48] <alison> ;(
[01:48] <chewd> bod: do you follow?
[01:48] <Starnestommy> syn`_: lspci?
[01:48] <bod_> chewd: have u tried this -- dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:48] <Darkmystere> alison: Is ur card supported?
[01:48] <syn`_> that's it :) thanks.
[01:48] <HAIDEN> anyone know how you use rsync over ssh while executing find? there is an example on the rsync website... but i cant get it to work http://samba.anu.edu.au/rsync/examples.html
[01:48] <sc0123> bod_:  when you can check PVT plz :)
[01:48] <chewd> put that in console?
[01:48] <alison> lspci doesn;t detect my card
[01:49] <bod_> sc0123: wot,.,. im confused
[01:49] <alison> i belive ndiswrapper supports it
[01:49] <sc0123> bod the private windows
[01:49] <alison> but i need .inf or sys file for it
[01:49] <sc0123> but we can keep on here, if you prefer
[01:49] <chewd> ahh, says i must run it as root
[01:49] <bod_> chewd: yer ,.,. it will run a configuration program
[01:49] <alison> i dont know i've read a lot of forums today and they all said different stuff
[01:49] <alison> kinda confused now
[01:49] <sc0123> I've my wireless working just fine now..
[01:49] <bhind8ball> Last year, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said his company also expects payment from computer users who run a version of Linux distributed by Red Hat.
[01:49] <Starnestommy> sc0123: unregistered users can't send PMs to most users on freenode
[01:49] <alison> sc0123, how?
[01:49] <LinuxPH> tem alguem ai do brasil?
[01:49] <MrMist> Anyone? Seems gibbon can't recognize my GPU
[01:49] <MrMist> ??
[01:49] <chewd> bod: is that the same configuration program i got when i enabled twinview for the first time?
[01:49] <th0r> alison you should be able to download the drivers from the manufacturer website...the windows drivers
[01:50] <bod_> sc0123: good stuff,.,. how did u fix it?
[01:50] <Eyemean> bod_ is there a way to get list of all hard dirve locatsion, i think i remeber windows was aimed at h0,0 which it isnt at
[01:50] <bod_> chewd: dunno m8
[01:50] <alison> th0r, what do you mean?
[01:50] <sc0123> The reason why my wireless wasnt appearing on the "two monitors" on the tray
[01:50] <sc0123> was just because I had to uncheck "enable networking"
[01:50] <chewd> i dont have any problem setting the screen resolution... but for some reason ubuntu isnt scaling down the desktop size to match
[01:50] <alison> i have a linksys WMP54G PCI card
[01:50] <kaje> If I have a laptop with a core 2 duo chip, does that mean I can/should install the 64bit version of ubuntu?
[01:50] <lex0> when i use checkinstall why does it not recognize the command?
[01:50] <sc0123> and re-check it to recognize wireles
[01:50] <chewd> ive got a 1600x1400 or whatever desktop on a 1280x1024 screen resolution
[01:50] <th0r> alison the sys and inf files you need are the windows drivers for your card...ndiswrapper uses the windows drivers
[01:51] <alison> right...
[01:51] <bod_> Eyemean: wot are you trying to find,.,. i dont no a command for it ,. but just use ur file manager, all mounted disks r listed in there
[01:51] <sc0123> alison, what have to tried so far?
[01:51] <alison> th0r i have ndiswrapper instaled
[01:51] <alison> i opened SYSTEM - ADMINISTRATION - Windows Wireless Connection
[01:51] <alison> but i cant install the new driver
[01:51] <chewd> oh man im so close to getting this working
[01:51] <chewd> argh
[01:51] <sc0123> bod_:  my problem now is how to choose the right encryption lol
[01:51] <Eyemean> bod_ trying to find list of hard drive mounts
[01:51] <Eyemean> but comes up here as just windows
[01:52] <bod_> chewd: r ur graphics card drivers up to date
[01:52] <sc0123> alisonalready , tried madwifi?
[01:52] <chewd> yea.. just got em 30 min ago
[01:52] <th0r> alison do you have the windows drivers installed in ndiswrapper?
[01:52] <alison> i tried wifi-radar
[01:52] <alison> not madwifi
[01:52] <sc0123> madwifi then
[01:52] <bod_> Eyemean: cant help with that im afraid
[01:52] <alison> th0r i think so, how to check?
[01:52] <alison> sc0123 do you use madwifi?
[01:52] <mattsqz> both madwifi and ndiswrapper make me angry. wont let me change txpower. maybe its not the driver..
[01:52] <bod_> sc0123: dunno bout encryption ,.,. my dad set that up ,.,.lol,.,.
[01:53] <Eyemean> ok no worries bod_, i read that sire aswell, thats goes on about reapiring it, but i dont think grub damaged it
[01:53] <sc0123> you just need to install the package : build-essentials - check for a madwifi wiki to get madwifi via SVN
[01:53] <chewd> i guess i could just bump my screen res up to 1600x1400 or whatever the desktop is... to eliminate the pan&scan virtual desktop crap... but 1280x1024 is my favorite screen res
[01:53] <chewd> everythings too small otherwise
[01:53] <sc0123> then.. make, install, mod_prob ath0
[01:53] <alison> SVN?
[01:53] <solexious> [Rephrase] I've made a samba shared public no auth folder, but I cant seem to change that the folder name is "public" when viewed from a windows box
[01:53] <sc0123> subversion, check for a Wiki or Howto
[01:53] <sc0123> about Madwifi Ubuntu
[01:53] <alison> you mean SPM?
[01:53] <bod_> Eyemean: just search for "Repairing windows NTDLR"
[01:53] <sc0123> SVN, subversion
[01:54]  * alison confused
[01:54] <sc0123> hehe alison, first of all
[01:54] <sc0123> just note this
[01:54] <sc0123> install package: build-essentials
[01:54] <bod_> chewd: have u rebooted since u installed the drivers?
[01:54] <sc0123> you need it for madwifi
[01:54] <chewd> theres gotta be some way i can manually set the desktop size
[01:54] <chewd> bod: several times
[01:54] <alison> i already did build-essentials
[01:54] <sc0123> after that, just use google to find a madwifi tutorial
[01:55] <Darkmystere> Anyone know how to make a script in Ubuntu to Install multible .deb packages With Bash or somthing? Its heck load of Packages..
[01:55] <patrock> solexious: is the heading [public] in smb.conf?
[01:55] <todd_> I am getting.. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel and execute '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv start' as root. how do I fix this???
[01:55] <bruenig> Darkmystere, dpkg -i *.deb
[01:55] <lex0> im sorry is someone able to answer my question?
[01:55] <solexious> lol, i see where your going with this, yes
[01:55] <Darkmystere> bruenig?
[01:55] <bruenig> Darkmystere, ?
[01:55] <sc0123> if everything goes ok, then on the tray icon of network, disable networking and re-enable it
[01:55] <J-_> Can anyone tell me what I need to install to get Ruby on Rails running locally on my desktop?
[01:55] <bod_> Darkmystere: #bash
[01:55] <sc0123> wait a few seconds
[01:55] <Onyx> I'm trying to find out where amarok keeps its default icon.  Can anyone help me out with this?  It'
[01:55] <bruenig> I don't recommend #bash for that
[01:55] <patrock> solexious: you know what to do?
[01:55] <Onyx> It's been a very frustrating 3 days trying to track this thing down...
[01:56] <alison> sc0123
[01:56] <sc0123> J-_: Apache, PHP, Mysql (LAMP)
[01:56] <solexious> guess, change that name to what i want it to be?
[01:56] <alison> can you walk me through this again?
[01:56] <chewd> bod: i think the problem is, once you get into dual displays, ubuntu (or xserver, or whatever) no longer updates the desktop size to match your screen resolution
[01:56] <interruptz> hi all
[01:56] <Darkmystere> bruenig: Its like 50-60 .debs...
[01:56] <patrock> solexious: yeah and make sure it has the param  public = yes
[01:56] <Darkmystere> I wasnt specificly meaning bash just the easiest 1 to work with
[01:56] <sc0123> alison I just need to make a test
[01:56] <sc0123> let me find you a tutorial online
[01:56] <solexious> thank you patrock
[01:57] <patrock> solexious: np
[01:57] <alison> ok
[01:57] <Thorsten11> hello hello
[01:57] <iNtERrUpT> hello
[01:57] <alison> hello
[01:57] <sc0123> if you get stuck on installation of madwifi like "stdio.h" is missing it's about the build-essentials just google about "stdio.h" but you have already said that you have it installed...
[01:57] <sc0123> just a second, brb
[01:57] <Slart> Onyx: try this "find /usr | grep -i amarok | grep -i png".. see what kind of hits you get
[01:57] <chewd> every time i try to search for a solution.. all i get is stuff telling me how to set my screen res
[01:57] <alison> sc0123 is there an easier way to get my wireless working?
[01:58] <Slart> Onyx: looks like /usr/share/apps/amarok/icons/ would be a good place to look
[01:58] <bod_> alison: wireless on ubuntu is weird,.,.lol,.,. i had to switch to ethernet ,.,.lol,.,.
[01:58] <todd_> Anyone know how I can install /dev/vboxdrv??/
[01:59] <Onyx> Slart: I've been through /usr/share/apps/amarok/icons already -- no dice.
[01:59] <kronos> hi
[01:59] <levander> mount says I got this one filesystem mounted as type 'fuseblk'.  What's fuseblk?
[01:59] <Slart> Onyx: what icon are you looking for?
[01:59] <kronos> How do I find the compiz configuration file?
[01:59] <kronos> I want to do an automated backup
[01:59] <Dr_Willis> levander:  thats used by the FUSE tools.
[01:59] <chewd> so where would the desktop size be? xorg.conf?
[01:59] <Dr_Willis> !info fuse
[01:59] <ubotu> Package fuse does not exist in gutsy
[01:59] <Dr_Willis> !fuse
[01:59] <ubotu> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE.  Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here:  http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems
[01:59] <Slart> levander: user space file system block device.. or somthing like that
[01:59] <zetheroo> why is Skype using 45-50 % of my CPU power?
[01:59] <Onyx> Slart: Amarok's main program icon (the one that would sit in the tray)
[02:00] <Darkmystere> Dr_Willis: Try !fuse?
[02:00] <Darkmystere> !fuse
[02:00] <levander> Yeesh, it only gets more complicated.
[02:00] <kronos> How do I find the compiz configuration file?
[02:00] <stevie125548> hi all do you think ubuntu would run on a 1ghz computer
[02:00] <stevie125548> well
[02:00] <kronos> yes
[02:00] <zetheroo> anyone?
[02:00] <Slart> stevie125548: yes
[02:00] <InGunsWeTrust> how can i make a link to my trash on the desktop
[02:00] <Slart> zetheroo: it doesn't do that for me
[02:01] <stevie125548> ok thanks all i will give it a try
[02:01] <Darkmystere> Brb im gunna need ur help soon Dr_Willis: lol
[02:01] <zetheroo> Slart: it never used to do it with me either
[02:01] <krazyj> any support here for wireless bandiwdth?
[02:01] <tomd123> does anyone know a program that acts like dreamweaver for site designing?
[02:01] <levander> Okay, if the drive is an NTFS drive, is it safe to assume that it's mounted via ntfs-3g?  Or, could it still possibly be mounted via that other, older filesystem driver?
[02:02] <alison> can anyone help me, im trying to get my wireless network working on ubuntu
[02:02] <chewd> anybody know how to re-size the desktop?
[02:02] <levander> chewd: System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution
[02:02] <InGunsWeTrust> how can i make a link to my trash on the desktop
[02:02] <syn`_> hey guys, me again. i got some help earlier, having problems with ati card. i changed my xorg.conf and tried to change it to my ati, but i think i put the wrong pci thing in there. i reset and now using vesa. but the pci on lspci is 01:04.0, how would that translate to what i put in?
[02:02] <chewd> levander: thats screen resolution... i need to change desktop size

[02:02] <chewd> 2 different things
[02:03] <chewd> right now my desktop is larger than my screen res...its doing pan& scan
[02:03] <patrock> tomd123: bluefish maybe, then theres another that starts with n I think

[02:09] <Onyx> Slart: I'm trying to get Avant Window Navigator (awn) to use the icon I want it to use for amarok -- it fails to do this because apparently it's difficult to get awn to respect system-wide icon themes.

[02:44] <shaft0r> Visual Effects Issue: I seem to have solved my dual monitor/scrolling desktop by disabling the second monitor which didnt disable it, but actually fixed it. Anyway, I am unable to Enable Visual Effects now... using nvidia restricted drivers or whatever. Anyone?
[02:44] <bod_> kinglet: do things slower
[02:44] <bod_> chewd: did the xorg thing not work?
[02:44] <mikeylikesit5805> shaft: what kind of card you have
[02:45] <kinglet> bod_: no its too fast!!
[02:45] <nickrud> kinglet: um, that factoid is a bit harsh, try repeating a little less often so new people can cycle in
[02:45] <shaft0r> mikeylikesit5805, 7600GT
[02:45] <kinglet> bod_: I do it slower but capturing is too fast! i don know why!
[02:45] <ablyss> kinglet: are you using xvidcap to capture you desktop ?
[02:45] <kinglet> ablyss: Yes
[02:45] <bod_> kinglet: try turning down something like the refesh/capure rate in ur vidcap program
[02:45] <shaft0r> mikeylikesit5805, it worked a minute ago and has stopped working since 2nd monitor has been enabled.. the only other thing that changed was software update
[02:46] <ablyss> kinglet: i'd recommend using gtk-recordmydesktop instead.. it is actually supported by ubuntu whereas xvidcap isnot
[02:46] <mikeylikesit5805> ahh, i had the same problem but with a diff card let me remember what i had to do
[02:46] <kinglet> ablyss: You mean I use gtk-rec... ?
[02:46] <bod_> kinglet: yes
[02:46] <ablyss> kinglet: gtk-recordmydesktop
[02:47] <sebas_> @nl2br

[02:47] <kinglet> ablyss: tnx
[02:47] <mikeylikesit5805> dont thank me yet i havent fixed it ;-)

[02:47] <ablyss> yvw
[02:47] <shaft0r> mikeylikesit5805, hehe i was just thinking that but hey... effort is effort. :-)
[02:47] <mikeylikesit5805> hey thanks
[02:47] <bod_> kinglet: hey thank ablyss not me ,.,. i just said yes,.,.lol
[02:47] <sebas_> s
[02:47] <cgould> how is ubuntu different from Debian ?  just more packages pre-installed ?
[02:48] <kinglet> bod_: I said thank to him! don worry :D
[02:48] <jahisthebalance> still not getting my bluetooth to work, has anyone had a similar problem?
[02:48] <nickrud> cgould: more complete configuration, integration, that kind of thing. Same packages pretty much
[02:48] <no0tic> justin_, perhaps /msg ubotu ntfs-38
[02:48] <bod_> kinglet: lol,.,.good good
[02:48] <AFarris01> Hey everyone
[02:48] <shaft0r> jahisthebalance, what type of BT dongle is it? I have a bluesoleil and cant seem to make it work. wasnt sure if it was even supported.
[02:48] <nickrud> cgould: nothing you could't do in debian though
[02:48] <rm_you> I installed the mdadm and dmraid packages on a totally clean gutsy install so that I could mount my pre-existing raid drive, and whenever I reboot now, it kicks me into an "initramfs" ash shell... wherei CAN in fact see my raid... but can't mount my root drive (not on raid) or continue to boot :(
[02:49] <Steve2922> is there an X11 channel?
[02:49] <cgould> is there a site where i can find details ?
[02:49] <chewd> oy.. well im back where i was
[02:49] <AFarris01> can anybody here help with sound issues, or is that a different channel?
[02:49] <rm_you> This is the second time I've done a complete format / install of gutsy and had this problem right after installing mdadm/dmraid and rebooting
[02:49] <schwepps> my hard drive seems busy for no reason. how can i find out what it's doing? (ie, what processes are using it?)
[02:49] <chewd> a theory
[02:49] <nickrud> cgould: wiki.ubuntu.com is the developer's site, roadmaps and specs and the like
[02:49] <mikeylikesit5805> ok shaft: i cant remember what i did, i think i might have updated the driver (im looking for it now) but check this out now, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=553409 ( sorry all i dont know how to correctly send a link in xchat)

[02:50] <cgould> thank you

[02:50] <phreck> whenever i plug in my wired connection it doesnt work
[02:50] <chewd> for driver it just says "nvidia"
[02:50] <phreck> wireless works fine
[02:50] <phreck> anyone got any ideas?
[02:50] <AFarris01> schwepps...go to system, administration, system monitor
[02:50] <chewd> should it be more specific than that?
[02:50] <rm_you> schwepps: if it is a drive you have mounted somewhere like /media/something, you could do "lsof | grep /media/something" and see what programs have files open on it
[02:50] <chewd> like "nvidia gforce 6600" ??
[02:50] <AFarris01> it should show running processes
[02:50] <shaft0r> mikeylikesit5805, thats fine, thanks, i'll check that out. I'm in mirc (RDC in from my 7.10 install hehe) so the link worked ok
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> chewd: I run a 6600, want me to check mine
[02:50] <bod_> chewd: talk in prvt
[02:50] <chewd> yes plz
[02:51] <BlueFusion> hello
[02:51] <rm_you> schwepps: but if it is your root drive, tons of stuff will have open files :/ so it won't be very helpful
[02:51] <mikeylikesit5805> no prob shaft: let me know how it goes
[02:51] <phreck> I cant get my wired connection up, anyone have any ideas?
[02:51] <justin_> whats the terminal command for mounting a partition

[02:51] <BlueFusion> can i fix it bod_?
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> chewd: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52220/    see if anything in there helps you
[02:52] <justin_> bruenig: does that work for ntfs or is there another command?
[02:52] <bruenig> justin_, you may need to specify the filesystem with -t
[02:52] <chewd> k thanks sparrow
[02:52] <BlueFusion> is it fixable more like, or do i need a new CD or machine
[02:52] <bod_> BlueFusion: dunno ,.,. reboot,.,. i was just wondering if u were gonna post wot happened,.,.lol,.,.?
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[02:52] <BlueFusion> well
[02:52] <schwepps> AFarris01, rm_you, apparently it was "trackerd", apparently for indexing in gutsy; killed the process and now my drive is quiet :-)
[02:52] <BlueFusion> i keep trying
[02:52] <BlueFusion> it keeps happening
[02:52] <rm_you> schwepps: :P glad it helped
[02:53] <Eyemean> is there a way to check out the grub settings?
[02:53] <shaft0r> mikeylikesit5805, ah ok, that link is actually for getting the 2nd monitor to work... i have actually gotten that far. my problem is mainly the visual effects... ya know, the pretty stuff that makes it all worth it lol.
[02:53] <bod_> Eyemean: wot do u wanna check
[02:53] <Starnestommy> Eyemean: check /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:53] <musikgoat> BlueFusion: check your iso that you downloaded, and try burning at lower speed?
[02:53] <Eyemean> its settings see if i can edit grub for windows or something
[02:53] <shaft0r> mikeylikesit5805, how would i go about updating the nvidia drivers? i doubt there are new ones but maybe i can reinstall them or something.
[02:54] <BlueFusion> k thx musikgoat
[02:54] <mikeylikesit5805> your using 7.10 right
[02:54] <chewd> jack: are you running dual displays?
[02:54] <shaft0r> yup
[02:54] <bod_> chewd: hows it going?
[02:54] <Jack_Sparrow> chewd: Just single
[02:54] <chewd> dunno how you guys do it
[02:54] <chewd> sometimes i think i need 3

[02:55] <Jack_Sparrow> chewd: I have 5 different systems available plus a kvm switch for a couple more...
[02:55] <chewd> looks like youre using generic monitor drivers too jack
[02:55] <mikeylikesit5805> ahh shaft foud it
[02:55] <bod_> chewd: u can have as many virtual desktops as u want ,.,. what do u need 3 screens for when u can have 8 sepret desktops?
[02:55] <mikeylikesit5805> this is what i used http://albertomilone.com/driver.html
[02:55] <rm_you> This is the second time I've done a complete format / install of gutsy and had this problem right after installing mdadm/dmraid and rebooting. Any ideas?
[02:55] <chewd> well yea.. ive got another box here for playing movies
[02:55] <rm_you> ack
[02:55] <chewd> it doesnt count tho
[02:55] <Jack_Sparrow> generic monitor drivers but set to my monitors v/h refresh/sync rates
[02:55] <jlw65_> is there any fax programs for ubuntu?
[02:55] <rm_you> I installed the mdadm and dmraid packages on a totally clean gutsy install so that I could mount my pre-existing raid drive, and whenever I reboot now, it kicks me into an "initramfs" ash shell... wherei CAN in fact see my raid... but can't mount my root drive (not on raid) or continue to boot. Any ideas?
[02:56] <chewd> monitor drivers arent all that important in windows either
[02:56] <chewd> good to know
[02:56] <bod_> chewd: use another esktop,.,.lol,.,. thats the solution for people like me hu dont have 2 monitors,.,.lol
[02:56] <chewd> :)
[02:56] <chewd> that just confuses me
[02:56] <shaft0r> mikeylikesit5805, ok so I assume I use the "latest" ones... but I dont see 7.10
[02:56] <chewd> ill end up with the same program open in all 4 desktops
[02:57] <pkundu> Adobe Flash plugin is not working for me.....only gnash works. I need adobe flash plugin in firefox. what to do?
[02:57] <MasterShrek`> !brokenflash
[02:57] <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.
[02:57] <jahisthebalance> is there anybody who has experience getting the cheap bluetooth dongles to work?
[02:57] <mikeylikesit5805> i used 7.04 should be pretty good but i can not garentee anything :-(
[02:57] <chewd> maybe i should try compiz
[02:57] <chewd> how likely is it that compiz will just screw me up worse?
[02:57] <AFarris01> im having trouble with my sound...actually, i have no sound now that ive installed pulseaudio according to the instructions in it's wiki
[02:57] <rm_you> blegh, i will try some stuff...

[02:58] <mikeylikesit5805> shaft: look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=583214
[02:58] <shaft0r> mikeylikesit5805, gotcha. i'll see where i can get with that, thanks.
[02:58] <marlon00> I Just installed fglrx 8.42.3 but fglrxinfo reports vendor stirng as Mesa GLX Indirect and glxgears runs very very slow..
[02:58] <chewd> cant?
[02:58] <chewd> just make matters worse?
[02:58] <Jack_Sparrow> jahisthebalance: I gave up and bought one that has drivers/supported

[02:59] <seans_> anybody here use Anjuta IDE  for programming in C, I have a problem when executing a prog. I get a message "Program '/home/seans/programs/Test' is not a local file" any sugestions?
[02:59] <xoqa> has anyone had this problem: in kubunut, it doesn't start kdm, instead i'm taken to a tty login screen and right above the login field, i'm told that grub couldn't find the resume image?
[02:59] <xoqa> xoqa, i tried to resume about a week ago
[02:59] <xoqa> but i've since shut the computer down properly
[02:59] <chewd> theres gotta be somewhere in all these configs where xserv gets its desktop size
[02:59] <Jack_Sparrow> chewd: If you are having problems.. adding effects will not make life easier..
[02:59] <justin_> when i enter the command ntfs-3g /dev/sda2 /mnt/win -o force in terminal i get
[02:59] <justin_> Error opening partition device: Permission denied
[02:59] <justin_> Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Permission denied
[02:59] <chewd> im just hoping itll give me access to the desktop size
[02:59] <Starnestommy> xoqa: the absence of a resume image wouldn't cause this.  Try sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start
[02:59] <jlw65_> where do you get the best tutiorals for unbuntu?
[03:00] <bruenig> justin_, need root
[03:00] <Jack_Sparrow> chewd: /j #compiz         people are good are that stuff.. That is where I go for answers
[03:00] <chewd> maybe its got virtual extra-big desktop settings for the crazies who actually want that
[03:00] <justin_> bruenig: what do u mean
[03:00] <bruenig> !root
[03:00] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[03:00] <viator> sudo
[03:00] <MasterShrek> bruenig, but that wont give his user write access will it?
[03:00] <phreck> lolll
[03:00] <bruenig> MasterShrek, why not
[03:01] <justin_> bruenig: oh duh thnx
[03:01] <xoqa> Starnestommy: http://pastebin.ca/858061
[03:01] <chewd> compiz isnt even showing up in add/remove
[03:01] <viator> sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda2 /mnt/win -o force
[03:01] <mikeylikesit5805> jlw65: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/
[03:01] <bod_> chewd: press alt+F2 ,.,. then type 'ccsm'
[03:01] <MasterShrek> well i dunno, i rarely mount ntfs partitions lol, but if its mounted as root, would it give user write priviledges, i always remember mounting using ntfs-3g as a user i think
[03:01] <justin_> bruenig: then i get
[03:01] <justin_> fuse: failed to access mountpoint /mnt/win: No such file or directory
[03:01] <justin_> FUSE mount point creation failed

[03:01] <bruenig> justin_, create /mnt/win first
[03:02] <pkundu> thanks MasterShrek`
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> jlw65_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/   might be useful
[03:02] <MasterShrek> justin_, first sudo mkdir /mnt/win
[03:02] <bruenig> MasterShrek, everything is mounted with root
[03:02] <despineira> how to correctly debug ACPI?

[03:02] <taigeR_> I'll find out
[03:02] <jlw65_> mikeylikesit5805: do you know if there is anything about fax programs help there?
[03:02] <MasterShrek> fuse = filesystem in user space environment or something, its for users to mount things i thought
[03:02] <chewd> could not open location file:///ccsm
[03:02] <xoqa> Starnestommy: nope, i've installed dwm, but that shouldn't affect the login manager, i don't believe. i have installed kde4 components
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> chewd: It isnt called ccsm
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> !ccsm
[03:02] <ubotu> To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion
[03:02] <bruenig> chewd, file:///ccsm is /ccsm, of course that file doesn't exist
[03:02] <mikeylikesit5805> jlw65_ i will look into it for you did you look in the "add remove in ubuntu"
[03:03] <Starnestommy> xoqa: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[03:03] <bod_> chewd: u do not have compiz installed ,.,. installing it may resolve things(unlikely) it may make them worse (more likely)
[03:03] <chewd> well whyd he tell me to type it?
[03:03] <chewd> im just following directions lol
