[07:44] <SilentDis> maikel:  did you get those links within all the spam? :P
[07:44] <CANCIO> Hello
[07:45] <Maikel> Yea, but I need a way to update for edgy to feisty..
[07:45] <ragnar_123> Hey guys!
[07:45] <wastrel> i'm looking for a cli password manager with an encrypted database - anyone have a favorite?
[07:45] <SilentDis> Maikel:  best to ask over in #ubuntu+1 :)
[07:45] <Maikel> k
[07:46] <dabaR_> Maikel: if you do not even know how to upgrade that, why do you want to use a system that is in early development, 4 months before release?
[07:46] <new2ub> helo al
[07:46] <lassegs> So, i have this ethernet card on board on my asus a8n-sli motherboard. Its name is marvell yukon. it shows up in lspci but ifconfig -a only shows my wlan card
[07:46] <Maikel> I'm bored, I want to see how broke it is in vmware
[07:46] <SilentDis> maikel:  I do agree with dabaR_ though, might be best to stick with edgy, as no one here will really be able to help you when stuff goes wrong...
[07:47] <Infeliz> Maikel: drink beer
[07:47] <SilentDis> maikel:  this early in development, any bugs are officially considered features :D
[07:48] <lassegs> ive tried installing the sky98lin driver but nothing happens
[07:48] <new2ub> i installed Ubuntu on my system few days back. now i added another hard disk on the system in which there is xp. new hard disk is SATA my problem 1. how to auto-mount it 2. what to add in grub.conf that i can boot windows xp from grub
[07:49] <lassegs> new2ub, nr1 add the disk to you /etc/fstab file
[07:49] <SilentDis> !grub | new2ub
[07:49] <ubotu> new2ub: 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
[07:49] <Lattyware> I have a friend with a GAIM problem. He runs Dapper, and Gaim crashes as soon as he logs in.
[07:49] <Lattyware> Any suggestions?
[07:49] <SilentDis> new2ub:  check that second part for info on setting up grub to see it.  as for autoloading it, you'll be editing your /etc/fstab file
[07:50] <dabaR_> new2ub: is the xp disk /dev/sda, or /dev/sdb? sudo fdisk -l can tell you that.
[07:50] <wastrel> why are you using epiphany? does it suck less now?
[07:50] <wastrel> ww
[07:50] <ragnar_123> Lattyware: does he log into msn? or just irc?
[07:50] <new2ub> SilentDis: thanks
[07:50] <Lattyware> ragnar_123: Just MSN
[07:50] <SilentDis> lattyware:  any errors?  something in the logs?
[07:50] <foomanchew> how do i use my Dlink USB camera on Ubuntu ?
[07:51] <Lattyware> SilentDis: I don't know really, as I'm not there myself.
[07:51] <foomanchew> i want to have  ichat type functionality
[07:51] <ragnar_123> Lattyware: does he have any bots in his account? (like spleak)
[07:51] <Lattyware> ragnar_123: I don't think so, but there is a chance.
[07:51] <foomanchew> anyone using a dlink webcam
[07:51] <n2diy> I'm trying to boot from the CD, and I got a Grub prompt, any idea what is happening?
[07:51] <new2ub> yes SilentDis my another problem is this > which foomanchew is having >> USB camera not working
[07:51] <SilentDis> lattyware:  if anything, have them install a different irc client, and drop in here themselves.  :)
[07:52] <Lattyware> heh
[07:52] <Lattyware> xChat it is then :P
[07:52] <ragnar_123> Lattyware: okay - mine also used to crash.. but it did stop when removed them..
[07:52] <SilentDis> new2ub:  sorry, haven't played with vid capture under linux yet.  i'd be of no help :P
[07:52] <new2ub> ok SilentDis
[07:52] <Lattyware> ragnar_123: Hmmm... I'll mention it, thanks
[07:53] <SilentDis> lattyware:  bitchx for the win though! *giggle*
[07:53] <Lattyware> SilentDis: This is a recent windows convert, I think bitchX may be a little over his head
[07:53] <Lattyware> he needs pretty UIs
[07:54] <Lattyware> :P
[07:54] <n2diy> I just rebooted without the CD, and the same thing happened, the box isn't playing with the CD drive.
[07:54] <SilentDis> *sigh* anyone have a 600w psu to send me for free?  :(
[07:54] <randomc0de> anyone know what the really cool fstab gui in dapper was? I think it was under System->Preferences?
[07:54] <lassegs> SilentDis, free as in liberte, not as in free beer
[07:54] <Lattyware> *sigh* anyone have a decent CPU to send me for free :(
[07:54] <Lattyware> :P
[07:55] <Lattyware> os[Linux 2.6.17-10-386 i686]  distro[Debian testing/unstable]  cpu[1 x AMD Sempron(tm)  2400+ @ 1.66GHz]  mem[Physical : 503MB, 35.3% free]  disk[Total : 377.41GB, 76.20% Free]  video[nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5500] ]  sound[]
[07:55] <Lattyware> randomc0de: Wasn't it 'Device Manager'?
[07:55] <Lattyware> *Disc Manager
[07:55] <Lattyware> lol
[07:56] <randomc0de> maybe...
[07:56] <randomc0de> it's not in edgy though
[07:56] <randomc0de> and I can't seem to find a package for it or reference online
[07:56] <sud0> you're boring
[07:56] <Lattyware> Probably because of the switch to UUIDs
[07:56] <SilentDis> lassegs:  rofl yes.  i traced back all my issues to a slightly wonky PSU at this point.  pulled a bunch of (needed) cards and drives, and the machine started working properly again.  add in that the PSU is 5 years old...  *sigh*
[07:56] <randomc0de> possibly
[07:57] <SilentDis> lassegs:  a bit odd to put "antec 600w psu" on my x-mas list with a bunch of neophytes for relitives...
[07:57] <randomc0de> it was so nice not to have the mess around in the fstab though
[07:57] <sud0> 'neophytes'.. lol
[07:57] <Lattyware> randomc0de: I make my fstab all pwetty
[07:57] <Lattyware> :P
[07:57] <lassegs> SilentDis, :D
[07:58] <SilentDis> sud0:  they're lucky if they've got their stereo speakers on the right sides :P
[07:58] <spikeb> my fstab is all pretty too: at the top it has #i feel pretty, oh so pretty
[07:58] <Thuryn> yo
[07:59] <sud0> SilentDis: we're all a bit stupid sometimes, you probably couldn't tell me the differce between egrp and eigrp ;) we're not perfect
[07:59] <sud0> difference*
[07:59] <spikeb> heh Lattyware that cpu is better than mine
[07:59] <jarnoz> How do I set PATH so that it is how I set it after reboot?
[07:59] <Thuryn> ??
[07:59] <randomc0de> put it in you .bashrc file
[08:00] <SilentDis> sud0:  very true!  and I never admit perfection... they simply don't wanna learn about ANYTHING though... computer or LIFE related :P
[08:00] <Osio> Hallo
[08:00] <drkwol1> hi who to install ubuntu in console mode, is there something like baseconfig ?
[08:00] <Osio> Can someone help me with a broken xserver
[08:00] <drkwol1> how*
[08:01] <lassegs> SilentDis, you should lock them up in a room full of technology, and dont let them come out before they and tech has become friends
[08:01] <Osio> i can't enter die console anymore as well as gnome
[08:01] <Osio> just have errors
[08:01] <SilentDis> sud0:  ignorance is correctable.  apathy is fine on some topics too.  ignorance + apathy = bad mix :P
[08:01] <foomanchew> anyone have luck with usb webcam ?
[08:02] <SilentDis> lassegs:  that would be bad.  I'd start getting calls within 5 min to come fix things :P
[08:02] <eilker> my ip is 169.254.x.x , what is the problem ? any idea ? dhcp problem....
[08:02] <Osio> okay no answer. i will go google some more
[08:02] <Osio> ex5t
[08:02] <Osio> exit
[08:03] <SilentDis> osio:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg should walk you through most problems.  what error do you get when you try to start x?
[08:03] <jarnoz> randomc0de: Thanks, I'll try. Don't know what is non-login shell, though.
[08:04] <lassegs> eilker, that is an IP you get when your computer dont get any DHCP requests... Its not connected properly to your router/ISP
[08:04] <Ulixes> can anyone tell me if for the version 6.10 exist the dvd too or it is only on cds?
[08:04] <Ulixes> thz
[08:04] <apokryphos> Ulixes: take a look at the FAQ (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions) as linked to in the channel /topic
[08:05] <apokryphos> a DVD release is always made
[08:05] <Ulixes> where to find it
[08:05] <Ulixes> i didn't
[08:05] <SilentDis> ulixes:  i have the ubuntu and kubuntu DVDs sitting here next to me, so I'd say yes, they exist ;)
[08:05] <Ulixes> could you send me the links??
[08:06] <Ulixes> anyway i mean versione 6.10 edgy
[08:06] <SilentDis> Ulixes:  to buy, to have sent to you free, or to download?
[08:06] <Ulixes> not dapper
[08:06] <Ulixes> download
[08:06] <Ulixes> dvd version edgy
[08:06] <lassegs> So, i have this ethernet card on board on my asus a8n-sli motherboard. Its name is marvell yukon. it shows up in lspci but ifconfig -a only shows my wlan card
[08:06] <xipietotec> Ulixes: it's on the website under downloads
[08:06] <lassegs> ive tried installing the sky98lin driver but nothing happens
[08:06] <SilentDis> Ulixes:  should be able to just head to http://www.ubuntu.com/ and click the 'download' link :)
[08:07] <jrib> Ulixes: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/6.10/release/
[08:08] <Ulixes> the second link works
[08:08] <ailean> how do i set the default boot for grub?
[08:08] <Ulixes> in the website i couldn't find dvd
[08:08] <jrib> ailean: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst with your favorite text editor
[08:09] <lassegs> edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:09] <ailean> jrib, just put the one i want at the top or what?
[08:09] <lassegs> dang to late
[08:09] <ailean> lol
[08:09] <jrib> ailean: no, read the comments about "default"
[08:09] <ailean> i appreciate your answer too lassegs :)
[08:09] <ailean> cheers
[08:09] <SilentDis> alright, gonna wander off and watch Jack Bauer blow things up, kill people, and solve mysteries better than any dog ever could.  i'll check in later :)
[08:09] <drkwol1> hi how to install ubuntu (edgy) without X (i've the cd but my graphic card is not supported )?
[08:09] <lassegs> wow thaks
[08:09] <pestilence> drkwol1: use the alternate install cd
[08:09] <jrib> !alternate | drkwol1
[08:09] <ubotu> drkwol1: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[08:09] <SilentDis> drkwol1:  you're looking for the server install cd :)
[08:10] <drkwol1> pestilence: no other way ?
[08:10] <lassegs> drwoll: :D
[08:10] <FernandoCordes> !grub | ailean
[08:10] <ubotu> ailean: 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
[08:10] <SilentDis> or alternate, yeah, that too :)
[08:10] <pestilence> drkwol1: not that i know of
[08:10] <Capslock118> Does anyone know how I can mount my NVIDIA RAID? Ive searched many forums but everything points to how to install edgy on a raid
[08:11] <pestilence> Capslock118: is it a hardware raid?
[08:11] <Capslock118> well....I think it would be considered a fakeRaid
[08:11] <pestilence> Capslock118: what's wrong with "mount /dev/sd{whatever} mountpoint"?
[08:11] <SilentDis> byeeeeeee all :)
[08:11] <Capslock118> nforce chipset
[08:11] <drkwol1> pestilence: on debian there's baseconfig or somthing like that, i just want to install the base system
[08:11] <Capslock118> it sees the sda and sdb but it doesnt see both drives togetehr
[08:12] <pestilence> drkwol1: right, i just don't think that's possible off of the livecd
[08:12] <pestilence> drkwol1: you have to use the "alternate" cd or the "server" cd
[08:12] <pestilence> they have the old installer on them

[08:16] <lassegs> _Rebecca, hi. how did the streaming issue go?
[08:17] <h08817> what does everyone use for a media player that plays WMV files?
[08:18] <Seven_Six_Two> i have .0.2 and .0.3 hooked up to a router that forwards port 80 to .0.2    ---   my desktop, (.2.3),  is hooked up to the second nic (.2.1) on the same box as .0.2   ---   I want apache to serve pages to all port 80 req's on .0.2 but to transparently pass all other requests to my desktop's .2.3   ---  is iptables all I need to use?
[08:18] <Capslock118> I installed a program by compiling it and i put its folder in my main home folder. I cant seem to delete the folder, it sais I do not have the privalges, how do I work around this?
[08:18] <h08817> everytime there is any kind of video online that i find it seems to be WMV and i can't watch it
[08:18] <dabju> Hi, I've got fglrx working. And the aticontrolpanel is working. But it isnt cloning the screen to my projector..? Anyone know why?
[08:18] <h08817> Capslock118, use sudo
[08:18] <lassegs> ho8817, use vlc then. itll play it
[08:18] <h08817> lassegs, k thanks
[08:18] <jarnoz> Which is better file in which to add a directory to PATH: :  ~/.bash_profile or  ~/.bashrc ?
[08:18] <lassegs> dabju, try sudo aticonfig in the terminal
[08:19] <lassegs> jarnoz go forbachrc
[08:19] <lassegs> *bashrc
[08:19] <h08817> is there a keyboard shortcut that minimizes all windows?
[08:19] <h08817> !keyboard shortcuts
[08:19] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[08:19] <Capslock118> h08817: root@joel-desktop:/home/joel# sudo rm xhub-0\ (another copy).2.9.6
[08:19] <tkooda> can anyone tell me how to fix it so I can display ansi chars in an rxvt term properly (i.e. `dialog`) on my edgy box?  (changing LANG=en_US.UTF-8 dosn't seem to do anthing?)
[08:20] <h08817> Capslock118, you might have to delete individual files before removing the directory
[08:21] <lassegs> Capslock118, sudo rm -rf /home/joel but why do this?
[08:21] <Capslock118> Im trying to get rid of it
[08:21] <lassegs> Capslock118, what directory?
[08:21] <Capslock118> xhub-0\ (another\ copy).2.9.6
[08:22] <Capslock118> thats how it is displayed in console
[08:22] <monoxide> !compile
[08:22] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:22] <lassegs> right. then sudo rm -rf xhub-0\ (another\ copy).2.9.6
[08:23] <gostview> hi all, is there a program like frontpage for linux?
[08:24] <Infeliz> haha
[08:24] <dogsthat> http://nvu.com/index.php
[08:24] <lassegs> gostview, maybe screem or quanta +
[08:24] <dabju> lassegs, it gives me lots of options. And I can change them. But it dosent use my projector..
[08:24] <Infeliz> why to use frontpage
[08:24] <ubox> hey all
[08:24] <Capslock118> lassegs: well it still said I had a syntax error, but I just changed the file name to take care of it
[08:24] <dogsthat> that's a frontpage type program but way better
[08:24] <lassegs> Capslock118, nice
[08:24] <gostview> lassegs> is those a kind of wysywyg?
[08:25] <lassegs> gostview, kinda... google them
[08:25] <Capslock118> now my biggest problem is trying to get my RAID to be seen
[08:25] <phaedra> gostview, nvu or bluefish is your best bet...
[08:25] <lassegs> dabju, then man aticonfig
[08:25] <Capslock118> ive read that dmraid is broken aside from the latest version, which i believe i have
[08:25] <dabju> lassegs, I dont know if aticonfig is the problem..
[08:26] <dabju> lassegs, how do I know if linux finds my dvi output?
[08:26] <Capslock118> and it can see the raid, but I dont know where to go from there to mount (i have a windows partition with the rest unformatted, I want to be able to utilize this drive
[08:26] <lassegs> dabju, lspci ?
[08:26] <gostview> phaedra> I got Nvu, but it too difficult 'cos need html knowledge
[08:26] <h08817> lassegs, where can i find that vlc? i don't see it in the repos or on sourceforge
[08:27] <phaedra> gostview,  Then try bluefish.
[08:27] <lassegs> gostview, use 15 minuits to learn html, its really easy
[08:27] <dabju> lassegs, right. thanks. 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device 71c5
[08:27] <gostview> ok, tnx all
[08:28] <lassegs> h08817, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[08:28] <dogsthat> Hi, having problems installing Ubuntu 6.10 on a Pentium 866MHz PC. After choosing _any_ of the options (standard, safe graphics, VGA etc.) the install progresses until the screen goes blank - *out of range*. It has a Matrox G200 graphics card and I've tried out *3* different monitors (19" LG Flatron, 17" Dell, 17" Mitsubishi). Any ideas? tia
[08:28] <gostview> lassegs> yet I tried to study html, but better a wysiwyg method, more simple, more immediatly
[08:28] <ubox> i am configuring postfix on my machine for LAN..do i have to add lines in /etc/postfix/main.cf for pop and smtp, if yes whr and wht should i add??
[08:28] <h08817> lassegs, found it elsewhere but thanks
[08:28] <phaedra> dogsthat,  Is this the graphical install?  Try the alternate cd install.
[08:29] <ianp> dogsthat: sounds like the settings (ranges?) for the monitor are wrong ...
[08:29] <nweaver916> Anyone here use the Deskbar applet?
[08:29] <tx22> Guys u gotta give me some insight. I've found a macbook (13") core 2 duo, 1.83ghz boxed for 489... Is this too cheap?.. is there a catch?.. Are macbooks good at running ubuntu??.. need to know this soon cos' the sale is going to end
[08:29] <nweaver916> Mine will only show Websearches for Wikipidea and Ubuntu packages
[08:30] <dogsthat> thanks, what is the alternate cd install?
[08:30] <dogsthat> i've looked for 6.06 but can't find it for download :(

[08:37] <bones78> Is it worth upgrading ubuntu to 6.10 from 6.06?
[08:38] <Smotang> what is the list of useful packages?
[08:38] <Smotang> Ie how do I pull it off ubotu
[08:38] <tx22> I don't like to troll, but guys can you please help
[08:38] <Smotang> !packages
[08:38] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[08:39] <tx22> I've found a macbook (13") core 2 duo, 1.83ghz boxed for 489... Is this too cheap?.. is there a catch?
[08:39] <renihs> the catch is its the smalles core2 duo
[08:39] <renihs> with only very small L2
[08:39] <Smotang> ubotu smotang !packages
[08:39] <renihs> apt-cache,...lol
[08:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smotang !packages - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:39] <Capslock118> would I be better trashing windows to mount this Raid device then reinstall it once I have everything taken care of?
[08:39] <Smotang> >.<
[08:40] <renihs> why does apt-cache search give back seamingly random results?
[08:40] <Smotang> ubotu smotang| !packages
[08:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smotang - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:40] <renihs> stuff that has nothing todo with my search word
[08:40] <Infeliz> ramdom?
[08:40] <Lynoure> renihs: can you give an example?
[08:40] <renihs> Lynoure, no matter what, anything
[08:40] <Smotang> ubotu smotang : !packages
[08:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smotang : !packages - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:40] <Lynoure> renihs: (maybe in the pastebin, if it is long)
[08:40] <renihs> i type apt-cache search dmraid and i get just i dont know
[08:41] <renihs> apt-cache search kernel and i get stuff back which has nothing todo with kernel
[08:41] <python> hi guys
[08:41] <renihs> etc ec
[08:41] <renihs> but maybe i cant use it correctly
[08:41] <dogsthat> phaedra, thanks. very weird. if you click on the choosing 6.06 link on safari or camino on a mac, it opens up the 6.10 list of localities, and gets rid of the 6.06 list. Finally got link to here: http://releases.ubuntu.com/dapper/
[08:41] <renihs> doesnt matter
[08:41] <python> I just installed vncserver and im setting up gnome on my server right now
[08:41] <renihs> we are running away from ubuntu asap :)
[08:41] <python> with apt-get
[08:41] <Lynoure> renihs: search includes stuff in the description too.
[08:41] <Help> hi can some one help during install im getting a partition problem
[08:41] <renihs> Lynoure, howto turn that behaviour off?
[08:41] <|markie|> anybody knows how these 3d desktop workplace switchers works ?
[08:42] <renihs> i want todo a packet-search not a description search
[08:42] <renihs> if i want todo a description search i should be able to but ...
[08:42] <Lynoure> renihs: do apt-cache show  if you just want to see the package by exact name
[08:42] <renihs> all packages?
[08:43] <renihs> i just want to see all packages which have kernel-source in the description for example
[08:43] <renihs> in the name
[08:43] <renihs> package name i mean
[08:43] <renihs> but never mind
[08:43] <Lynoure> renihs: or  apt-cache search foobar | grep foobar   if things with that in the name or short description
[08:43] <renihs> ya, thats what i do but thats filthy
[08:43] <Lynoure> filthy?
[08:43] <renihs> anyhow, since ubuntu doesnt run on plattforms it is certified for we cannot use it
[08:44] <renihs> which is good because then my distro is next in row :)
[08:44] <Lynoure> renihs: what is your distro?
[08:44] <renihs> based on gentoo
[08:44] <renihs> narf livesystems are desktop
[08:44] <renihs> zod livesystems are servers
[08:45] <renihs> the desktop has more than 3000 packages pre-installed, 12gb in size (uncompressed)

[09:06] <Ulixes> hi
[09:06] <Help> okay thanks oike
[09:06] <Help> pike
[09:06] <Ulixes> can you explain me what are the differences btwn dvd alternate and desktop cd????
[09:06] <mdke> what is the simplest application for me to use to directly copy an audio cd? I tried banshee but it failed rubbishly
[09:07] <carutsu> hello
[09:07] <wbadger> can someone please tell me how to keep /etc/resolv.conf from changing?
[09:07] <Ulixes> pls
[09:07] <carutsu> I recently instaled ubuntu and i installed kde, now i want to totally remove ubuntu
[09:08] <||arifaX> wbadger: it is good when it changes dynamically upon changing the locations ( use package resolvconf for that) and I like it. what to you mean exactly?
[09:08] <randomc0de> wbadger: it's set whenever your network connection gets new DNS servers
[09:08] <carutsu> but when i tried to do so it uninstalled everything even synaptics and the icons and i couldn't fix it
[09:08] <carutsu> so i reinstaled ubuntu
[09:08] <carutsu> but i stil want kubuntu
[09:09] <canine_kouji> question, I've a new Core2Duo 2.4Ghz
[09:09] <carutsu> currently i'm downloading kubuntu-desktop
[09:09] <carutsu> any ideas?
[09:09] <canine_kouji> core2 is 64bit, I'm suposed to be using the amd64 iso, right? also, I was looking at the 6.06 amd64, does this not have all drivers?
[09:10] <wbadger> ||arifaX, randomc0de, it sets my nameserver to my router's address and though that's usually good my router has a known problem of not resolving DNSs right. So I can change the file to my ISPs DNSs, but every time I reboot the file reverts back to the router's address (<IP_ADDRESS>).
[09:10] <pike_> carutsu: you could try uninstalling the libgtk packages that should clear out most gnome stuff i would think
[09:10] <canine_kouji> if I use the livecd of the 6.06, the timing is ALL out of whack and everything acts like it is going 2x faster(audio/video/everything)
[09:10] <carutsu> libgtk? ok
[09:10] <carutsu> i'll try it out
[09:10] <canine_kouji> does 6.10 have all the needed drivers for a 64bit build for a new computer?
[09:10] <pike_> carutsu: trick is finding a very common dependancy and removing it
[09:11] <randomc0de> wbadger: I had that problem earlier this year, you either have to fix your router to stop being a DNS server, or hack it to correct the resolve.conf on startup
[09:11] <canine_kouji> note: I could use the 32 bit build of ubuntu, but I want to use 64
[09:11] <carutsu> but the dependants will be removed too?
[09:11] <randomc0de> there's probably a better way, but hacking it's easier
[09:11] <canine_kouji> the 32bit runs fine, but it is kinda irritating
[09:11] <pike_> carutsu: yeah the package manager will remove anything that could no longer run
[09:11] <mborg> root@mborg-laptop:~# sudo cp -t libflashplayer.so /usr/share/mozilla/plugins
[09:11] <mborg> cp: accessing `libflashplayer.so': No such file or directory
[09:11] <canine_kouji> mm
[09:11] <canine_kouji> thinking about it
[09:12] <carutsu> ok i'll let you know
[09:12] <mborg> but libflasplayer.so is in /tmp
[09:12] <wbadger> randomc0de, this router serves 2 other windows machines so I don't want to change it, instead I'd like to change my machine alone, meaning configuring whatever program it is that changes resolv.conf to stop changing it.
[09:12] <canine_kouji> what software is not 64bit?
[09:12] <canine_kouji> as in flash, etc
[09:12] <||arifaX> wbadger: i use resolvconf and guessnet package and a custom /etc/network/interfaces file. eg. when I write a configuration like yours in my interfaces file it will automatically set up my nic and a resolv.conf that represents my settings. maybe you take a look at this packages?
[09:12] <canine_kouji> can wine run right under 64bit right now?
[09:13] <carutsu> partially off-topic: see this linux video you'll just love it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZmJ63sHoKU
[09:13] <canine_kouji> damned nvidia and 64 bit builds > I only wish I could use FreeBSD :/
[09:14] <satiee> Does Ubuntu work with Core 2 Duo processors?
[09:14] <canine_kouji> satiee: same question I have
[09:14] <carutsu> yep, but it may not use full potential
[09:14] <mdke> what is the simplest application for me to use to directly copy an audio cd? I tried banshee but it failed rubbishly
[09:14] <wbadger> ||arifaX, thanks I'll look them up. I have to restart now since I just updated a lot of software (a fresh install of ubuntu)
[09:14] <carutsu> i used sound juicer from GNOME
[09:15] <canine_kouji> satiee: I think the way for getting a good computer setup is by unfortunately using Gentoo or FreeBSD :/
[09:15] <pike_> mdke: not rip just create an iso and burn?
[09:15] <mdke> carutsu: afaics, sound-juicer doesn't copy a cd
[09:15] <mdke> pike_: yes, just copy the cd as it is
[09:15] <freefall> can i ask a off topic question
[09:15] <carutsu> oh sorry i though rip music, lol same word in my language
[09:15] <satiee> canine_kouji, I see :(
[09:15] <pike_> cat /dev/cdrom > filename.iso   then just burn it
[09:15] <canine_kouji> satiee: both gentoo and freebsd you can rebuild the OS to be optimized for a core2
[09:15] <mdke> freefall: by definition, you can only ask on-topic questions. That's what the topic is for
[09:16] <canine_kouji> satiee: the binary builds of ubuntu or any OS will not be core2 specific
[09:16] <Capslock118> would updating the kernel be a good idea?
[09:16] <canine_kouji> windows is in the same boat
[09:16] <mdke> pike_: alright... I'd hoped there would be something a bit simpler. I'll try that if I have to
[09:16] <freefall> well there isnt really a channel made for routers
[09:16] <satiee> And how does this 'rebuilding' work? Anything possible for newbs like me?
[09:16] <mdke> pike_: ah, right click, copy CD... not sure if it works though
[09:16] <canine_kouji> satiee: it wont. You're stuck with crappy binary builds ;)
[09:16] <mdke> freefall: #ubuntu-offtopic is for anything related to ubuntu
[09:16] <mdke> try that
[09:16] <satiee> great :p
[09:17] <satiee> I'm considering to run Ubuntu as my one and only OS, but problem is that I'm something of a gamer. Do you reckon it's worth the hassle or should I just stick with XP for now?
[09:17] <canine_kouji> I like FreeBSD much more, but.. you know.. desktop working machine and all..
[09:17] <ady> which antivirus software do u use for ubuntu?
[09:17] <canine_kouji> satiee: games suck, stick with XP if you want to game
[09:17] <carutsu> if you are a gamer you shouldn't change
[09:17] <||arifaX> carutsu: nice video
[09:17] <mdke> ady: most people don't use antivirus software

[09:20] <prOMiNd> im use this command and i can't push GNOME ...
[09:20] <prOMiNd> sudo apt-get install fluxbox ...
[09:20] <cmdrwill> regeya, I get the login screen (kubuntu), but when I put in my credentials it goes blank because I typed it right and then you think the splash screen is going to load but it just goes black and comes back to the login screen
[09:21] <prOMiNd> and my Ubuntu load only FLuxbox ...
[09:21] <regeya> cmdrwill: this probably won't help then, but here goes anyway:  http://wiki.kdenews.org/tiki-index.php?page=Troubleshooting+KDE+Problems

[09:21] <prOMiNd> fluxbox don't have a normal skins and don't have a start menu and etc....
[09:21] <pike_> prOMiNd: you can choose which to load at the login screen click 'sessions' button
[09:22] <regeya> cmdrwill: also, try hitting ctrl-alt-2 (or whatever) to switch to a different virtual console, and try to log in from the console.  if you can, see if you can write to your home dir (try something like "echo 'I like pie' > temp.txt")
[09:22] <matt____> can i uninstall ekiga?
[09:22] <intrepidus> Well here's a random question: why can't I use my keyboard to move left, right, up, and down? O.o
[09:22] <regeya> cmdrwill: I didn't have it happen on dapper, but had it happen on (I think) warty where the permissions were never set correctly on the home dir.
[09:22] <intrepidus> If I type a sentence, I can't hit left and make it go back

[09:37] <LjL> you mean
[09:37] <LjL> !ubuntu-desktop
[09:37] <ubotu> k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.

[09:53] <ValMarko> How do I intall that theme?
[09:53] <AlexC_> clay: for examle if I enter a command that isn't there I get bash: dfdfgd not found
[09:53] <carutsu> how do i change language settins on KDE?
[09:53] <clay> i do not know how to fix this, but when i used to use dos that would be a sign that you have changed the prompt
[09:53] <AlexC_> clay: I've never had it say bash: sdfsf before

[10:00] <enyc> startswithz: hrrrrrm well you would be best to ask somebody who is familiar with KNOPPIX grapical kde file tools
[10:00] <PowerJC> /close
[10:00] <reverseblade> clay, so in default it should have been working
[10:00] <clay> reverseblade, here is the thing i had this same laptoe before
[10:00] <enyc> startswithz: erm... if you are familira with commands to do things you can tar up the files you need and send the tar file wtih smbclient
[10:00] <reverseblade> clay, wireless working ? what card ?
[10:00] <tannerld> Klick: killall -9 6040

[10:01] <reverseblade> clay, ah, I don't think there is a display for that
[10:01] <clay> I love top

[10:02] <reverseblade> right now
[10:02] <startswithz> ok enyc how would I access it with a ubuntu computer?
[10:02] <Klick> tannerld did you do that as root?
[10:02] <Klick> err sudo

[10:03] <tannerld> Klick: yes
[10:03] <gwayne> lol whoops
[10:03] <reverseblade> clay, err, you can check out glxgears -printfps, if it is 1000+ then you should be fine. Which gives a rough estimation about your cpu performance
[10:03] <Klick> tannerld and you just want to  turn it off and be at a console prompt?
[10:03] <reverseblade> clay, other than that I don't know
[10:03] <tannerld> Klick: err, no...I'm trying to kill a program that won't die
[10:03] <reverseblade> clay, again said, probably it is working now

[10:13] <Flamekebab> Evening all (for those of you in Europe, at least). I need a hand with the command line, can anyone spare a minute to help me out?
[10:13] <DigitalNinja> What's a good psie vid card? I'm thinking of something Nvidia.
[10:13] <HuibertGill> Flamekebab: what's your problem?
[10:14] <narvik86> Flamekebab: ?
[10:14] <DigitalNinja> I had the nx7600 geforce
[10:14] <DigitalNinja> but it didn't work
[10:14] <Flamekebab> HuibertGill, narvik86, I want to take down my network connection, eth0, run macchanger to change my MAC address and then start it back up again
[10:14] <oneseventeen> Okay, for anyone interested I found the command "dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/disk.iso" (where "disk" is whatever you want to call it)
[10:15] <zylche> I remember that command from rockbox..
[10:15] <HuibertGill> Flamekebab: ifconfig eth0 down....
[10:15] <Flamekebab> basically, to get around the fact that I can't connect my Nintendo Wii to the internet here in university due to the need for a web-based login
[10:15] <Flamekebab> I've successfully done it in Windows, but I want to create a bash script to do it in a single click under Ubuntu
[10:15] <finalbeta> oneseventeen, http://www.mandrivaclub.nl/site/lofiversion/index.php/t4171.html << looking for backups? English lower on the page
[10:15] <HuibertGill> Flamekebab: I don't know about changing a mac adress though
[10:15] <Flamekebab> I'll give that a shot, HuibertGill, thanks
[10:15] <slicky> hey.. can someone pls give me a hint on where to start.. i want to uninstall my current fglrx drivers.. and replace them with new once..
[10:16] <soothsay> Can anyone tell me how to enable/disable the 'less' command from keeping its output on the screen after quitting?
[10:16] <h08817> narvik86, i have all the vlc plugins
[10:16] <Flamekebab> I do though, there's an app, of the highly original name - "macchanger" available in the repos
[10:16] <narvik86> Flamekebab: i us esudo /etc/init.d/networking stop
[10:16] <narvik86> Flamekebab: i use sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop
[10:16] <ValMarko> /usr/share/themes :)
[10:17] <Flamekebab> narvik86, if I did sudo /etc/init.d/networking start would that start networking back up again?
[10:17] <Slyboots_> Hi
[10:17] <narvik86> h08817: http://membres.lycos.fr/sethnakht/
[10:17] <narvik86> Flamekebab: yes
[10:17] <Slyboots_> Ran into a.. intresting problem, Trying to install Ubuntu 6.06.1 from the Live CD, but it thinks my Drives are totaly blank (Im planning on Dual-booting)
[10:17] <narvik86> Flamekebab: sudo /etc/init.d/networking start
[10:17] <Flamekebab> thank you
[10:17] <oneseventeen> finalbeta thanks, that's a very interesting post.  My purpose is for installing a VM on a machine that has no CD Rom, but the whole backup concept looks prety cool too.
[10:17] <Slyboots_> I think the problem might be Im using Nvidia stripped RAID on the discs
[10:18] <DARKGuy> How do I know what's my computer's timezone and to change it? (it's 5 hours in the future :/ )
[10:19] <Fleebailey33> i deleted my sources.list for feisty by mistake
[10:19] <reverseblade> DARKGuy, click to your time diplay at top right
[10:19] <Fleebailey33> can some pastebin another
[10:19] <lkusmir> Flamekebab, ifconfig eth0 down; ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55; ifconfig eth0 up;
[10:19] <reverseblade> Fleebailey33, doh :)
[10:19] <Fleebailey33> yes reverseblade
[10:19] <DARKGuy> reverseblade: that'd work - if I had the full ubuntu, I installed it with the alternate CD and I'm using fluxbox atm (Gnome is slooooooooow) so :/
[10:19] <reverseblade> Fleebailey33, search for the forums, I am sure you will find one
[10:19] <Fleebailey33> probably due to chroot
[10:19] <Fleebailey33> tried
[10:19] <Fleebailey33> send me yours?
[10:19] <Fleebailey33> and ill change edgy to fiesty
[10:20] <DARKGuy> reverseblade: besides when it installed, my timezone wasn't in the list and there was no option to choose another one though
[10:20] <Fleebailey33> you sound like an edgy guy
[10:20] <Fleebailey33> heh
[10:20] <reverseblade> Fleebailey33, too lazy for that

[10:20] <Fleebailey33> come on reverse blade
[10:20] <startswithz_> how do I log into gnome as the root user?
[10:20] <raavi> zor0 what kind of corruption is that
[10:21] <startswithz_> or get root access in gnome
[10:21] <reverseblade> Fleebailey33, really just search the forums, and still can't find, I'll help
[10:21] <Fleebailey33> humbug
[10:21] <raavi> startswithz_ sudo su

[10:21] <Fleebailey33> anyone else
[10:21] <zor0> raavi: dead hard disk in a laptop, still sort of works with errors, I just want to read as much stuff off as I can
[10:21] <Fleebailey33> epsecially kubuntu
[10:21] <reverseblade> startswithz_, console would be enough ?
[10:21] <Fleebailey33> want to send there edgy or feisty sources.list to me!!
[10:21] <Dial_tone> startswithz_, did you set a root pw?
[10:22] <startswithz_> yeah
[10:22] <raavi> zor0: try to use live CD and see whether you can mount that or not...
[10:22] <zor0> raavi: I'm booting to a gentoo live disk, but I get an io error trying to mount the drive
[10:22] <reverseblade> startswithz_, try sudo su
[10:22] <DARKGuy> Does anybody know how to change the computer's timezone inside the command line?
[10:22] <startswithz_> reverseblade didn't do anything
[10:22] <raavi> zor0: can you able to understand the dmesg
[10:22] <raavi> or
[10:22] <startswithz_> well, actually in the console I am now root
[10:22] <startswithz_> but not in gnome
[10:22] <reverseblade> startswithz_, that logs you as a root into the console
[10:23] <zor0> raavi: something about i/o error sector 2
[10:23] <reverseblade> starkruz1, why exactly do you need root access for gnome ?
[10:23] <startswithz_> I need to be in root in gnome
[10:23] <reverseblade> startswithz_, why ?
[10:23] <startswithz_> or I need to know how to use chmod to change the permissions on a folder
[10:23] <reverseblade> startswithz_, oh no need to, try gksudo nautilus
[10:23] <raavi> zor0: may be you have tell more about IO error...
[10:23] <lkusmir> startswithz_, man chmod
[10:24] <reverseblade> lkusmir, he wants to do it via nautilus
[10:24] <zor0> raavi: sorry I'm a bit slow, booting into the live cd now
[10:24] <startswithz_> I don't really care
[10:24] <startswithz_> I just want to do it
[10:24] <reverseblade> startswithz_, just type gksudo nautilus and you will be fine (and could change any permission)
[10:24] <zor0> raavi: its an ibook g4 with hfs+ on the disk
[10:24] <jrib> startswithz_: what folder?
[10:25] <startswithz_> its a folder in /
[10:25] <lkusmir> gksu nautilus then
[10:25] <startswithz_> I want to alter the permissions so that an smb user can alter it
[10:25] <jrib> startswithz_: chmod things outside your home is a way to end up reinstalling
[10:25] <raavi> zor0: can live CD able to detect the file system correctly or...
[10:25] <startswithz_> it's a folder i've added
[10:25] <jrib> startswithz_: ok
[10:26] <Slyboots_> So.. anyone any ides why the installer thinks my hard-drives are all blank?
[10:26] <raavi> zor0: I can suggest to use knopix live...
[10:26] <ValMarko> what is samba ?
[10:26] <zor0> raavi: I used to be able to mount the disk by specifying the fs, now it won't mount at all
[10:26] <reverseblade> Slyboots_, what are you up to ?
[10:26] <jrib> !samba | ValMarko
[10:26] <ubotu> ValMarko: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[10:26] <fenrig> can anyone
[10:26] <reverseblade> !samba ValMarko
[10:26] <Slyboots_> The Partitioning section of the Installer
[10:26] <ubotu> samba: a LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.22-1ubuntu4 (edgy), package size 2836 kB, installed size 7200 kB
[10:26] <zor0> raavi: knoppix dosn't work in ppc, I'm using a gentoo live disk
[10:26] <fenrig> help me with cracking turboprint
[10:26] <Slyboots_> When I set it to manualy partition the drive, it shows both discs as unpartitioned
[10:26] <reverseblade> fenrig, lol
[10:26] <jrib> fenrig: no, buy it if you want to use it
[10:26] <fenrig> yeah i know
[10:27] <wy> Is anyone using ATI drivers with xorg? I've got problems with it on my Thinkpad T60. It hangs the computer sometimes when I'm using VMware
[10:27] <raavi> zor0: may be it has further corruption....
[10:27] <fenrig> but just help
[10:27] <fenrig> im almost there
[10:27] <Infeliz> dont use wmware
[10:27] <reverseblade> wy, I was using in my old comp, no problems
[10:27] <reverseblade> no
[10:27] <reverseblade> use it
[10:27] <zor0> raavi: thats what I was afraid of, I'd like to take an image of the drive
[10:27] <reverseblade> vmware rocks
[10:27] <h08817> narvik86, yeah it opens the file i see it buffering but i dont see any video just sound
[10:27] <raavi> zor0: on the disk. I like to know the nature of the corruption.
[10:27] <fenrig> im trying to crack it for 2 hours
[10:27] <fenrig> so if u could just help
[10:27] <zor0> raavi: no idea, Ill get you the error though
[10:27] <reverseblade> fenrig, if you give me 50 bucks I will do it for you
[10:28] <sonicGB> fenrig: there's a simple method that should only take you another sixteen minutes
[10:28] <sonicGB> fenrig: first, spend fifteen minutes begging your mum for a loan of her credit card, then
[10:28] <sonicGB> fenrig: buy the software online!
[10:28] <reverseblade> hehe
[10:28] <Music_Shuffle> fenrig, The amount of help you will receive in this channel is proportional directly to the legality of your endeavor.
[10:28] <fenrig> ah so
[10:28] <fenrig> i dont care
[10:29] <fenrig> i cracked a lot
[10:29] <reverseblade> fenrig, I'll do for 50 bucks
[10:29] <fenrig> but turboprint
[10:29] <graft> hey, i'm trying to configure apt-build and wondering what my architecture should be if i have a celeron M?
[10:29] <fenrig> is really a thing apart
[10:29] <startswithz_> ok so chmod 666 /directory name would give everyone permission to read and write correct?
[10:29] <raavi> zor0: Once, you are aware of error message, you can try mailing to Linux Kernel Mailing List, I hope there are many who has good knowledge in ppc
[10:29] <reverseblade> starkruz1, yes but not execute
[10:29] <tuna-fish-> is there a case insensitive method of comparing files in dirs?
[10:29] <graft> startswithz_: directories need to be executable
[10:29] <Slyboots_> So.. No ideas, anyone at all?
[10:29] <reverseblade> startswithz_, not executing entering dirs
[10:30] <pike_> tuna-fish-: diff -ir i think
[10:30] <h08817> nothing works for me to play wmv files i've installed win32 codecs and installed vlc and i installed the mediaplayerconnectivity for firefox.. Any ideas?
[10:30] <reverseblade> startswithz_, 777 for everyone
[10:30] <tuna-fish-> thanks
[10:30] <startswithz_> reverseblade right.  Is that going to be important for transfering files?
[10:30] <phiqtion> how can i check if my swap partition is mounted correctly?
[10:30] <DARKGuy> Does anybody know how to change the computer's timezone inside the command line?
[10:30] <startswithz_> ok
[10:30] <fenrig> i hate that turboprint isnt opensource
[10:30] <reverseblade> startswithz_, via samba ?
[10:30] <zor0> raavi: what I was hoping for was the names of some tools to start researching, is dd good for making a drive image?
[10:30] <graft> anyone? apt-build, what's the correct architecture for a celeron m?
[10:30] <startswithz_> ok so I need to do it 777?
[10:30] <Music_Shuffle> fenrig, its not going to get you any help in HERE ;P
[10:31] <sonicGB> "hate" is such an ugly word fenrig
[10:31] <blue-frog> DARKGuy: tzconfig
[10:31] <phiqtion> how can i check if my swap partition is mounted correctly?
[10:31] <reverseblade> startswithz_, if you want to give full permissions to everyone yes, but it is a bit insecure
[10:31] <raavi> zor0: I never had any experience on recovery or so...I can't suggest anything to you.
[10:31] <reverseblade> phiqtion, man swapon
[10:31] <startswithz_> ok so what permissions would I need to allow a computer on my network to pass files to the folder?
[10:31] <DARKGuy> blue-frog: thanks a lot :D
[10:31] <lkusmir> phiqtion, swapon -s
[10:32] <reverseblade> phiqtion, top
[10:32] <Intangir> are some of the ubuntu servers down right now? when i try to upgrade to edgy it gives me an error about alot of freecontrib repos being down
[10:32] <jrib> startswithz_: why not just try 666, and if it deosn't work then use 777
[10:32] <phiqtion> thank you
[10:32] <frying_fish> graft: i386?
[10:32] <usr_rob_> defauld keyring keeps asking for password, i did save it, but it's keep asking everytime i login, suggestions ?
[10:32] <reverseblade> startswithz_, what is the method for passing ? samba ?
[10:32] <ValMarko> How do I change the look of the toolsbars ?
[10:32] <startswithz_> reverseblade yeah
[10:32] <zor0> dang it, there isn't enough nerdiness on irc to fix this?
[10:32] <graft> frying_fish: err, wants pentium4, etc.
[10:32] <mc44> Intangir: freecontrib repos are not official ubuntu repos
[10:32] <ValMarko> toolbars
[10:32] <reverseblade> startswithz_, have you configured samba itself ?
[10:32] <Intangir> why is the upgrade process relying on them?
[10:32] <startswithz_> I don't know
[10:32] <jrib> Intangir: because they are in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:33] <startswithz_> I think I have
[10:33] <mc44> Intangir: because you out them in your sources.list
[10:33] <reverseblade> ValMarko, System > preferences > themes may be
[10:33] <Intangir> k ill check and remove them
[10:33] <reverseblade> startswithz_, local permissions will be AND'ed with samba permissions
[10:33] <graft> startswithz_: you cannot access a directory unless it has +x permission, so it MUST be 777 not 666
[10:33] <Intangir> oh ya there they are for w32codecs ;)
[10:34] <startswithz_> thank you graft
[10:34] <ValMarko> reverseblade, tanks. it really changes the of the desktop but the toolbars remain unchanged
[10:34] <reverseblade> startswithz_, that depends on your users, if they have samba passwords or not, if you have configured them as guests
[10:34] <startswithz_> ok
[10:34] <reverseblade> ValMarko, right click to toolbar properties
[10:34] <phiqtion> After installing Ubuntu on the HD, Grub won't boot winxp and i believe error says: "filesystem error" or something similiar. I believe this is a Grub error or maybe an HD error? should i change anything in the BIOS?
[10:34] <startswithz_> how do I configure the knoppix user to get on?
[10:34] <ValMarko> tanks :)
[10:34] <startswithz_> I have a samba remote user account set up
[10:34] <reverseblade> startswithz_, configure what ?
[10:35] <startswithz_> reverseblade I do not know anymore
[10:35] <linux_kid> phiqtion: what partition manager did you use?
[10:35] <startswithz_> I just want to move files from one computer to another
[10:35] <phiqtion> linux_kid: livecd partition manager which comes in the install process
[10:35] <Intangir> well im upgrading to edgy
[10:35] <Intangir> prey for intangir ;)
[10:36] <reverseblade> startswithz_, if you want to use samba, normally you create a samba user , set that user's unix permissions , set that users samba permissions and you are good to go
[10:36] <Intangir> its downloading 870 megs
[10:36] <graft> startswithz_: what's wrong with scp?
[10:36] <linux_kid> phiqtion: well, im not sure if it is nondestructive....  it may have not moved your files so all of the existing files are not overwritten... :(
[10:36] <startswithz_> why is this so complicated
[10:37] <reverseblade> startswithz_, to access to the server from client, you need to use a samba client, your options are, smbclient command from console, smb://server from nautilus or //server from internet explorer , for more info consult #samba
[10:37] <drcode> I install p7zip , but I can;t find 7za or 7z
[10:37] <Music_Shuffle> startswithz_, both Linux? Or one windows?
[10:37] <drcode> any idea?
[10:37] <linux_kid> !! is gparted non-destructive?
[10:37] <sonicGB> startswithz_: do you mind re-stating the problem please... I missed the beginning of the conversation
[10:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is gparted non-destructive? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:37] <startswithz_> music_shuffle both linux
[10:37] <Music_Shuffle> startswithz_, use NFS.
[10:37] <graft> or scp...
[10:37] <startswithz_> sonicgb I think I missed the beginning too
[10:37] <reverseblade> startswithz_, that's the philosophy of linux, it is first difficult, when you learn it , you start to enjoy the power you have.
[10:37] <phiqtion> linux_kid: i just want to boot winxp from GRUB, i already know the files weren't overwritten
[10:37] <Music_Shuffle> startswithz_, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249889
[10:38] <jrib> drcode: dpkg -L p7zip | grep bin
[10:38] <startswithz_> ok so what program should I use? bear in mind one of the computers is running knoppix
[10:38] <graft> yo, transferring files is much EASIER on linux than it is on windoze... is there even any support for remote file access at all unless you're on the same subnet?
[10:38] <linux_kid> phiqton: ok, did you run disc check before installing ubuntu?
[10:38] <Music_Shuffle> NFS is all Unix systems.
[10:38] <graft> startswithz_: man scp!
[10:38] <drcode> jrib, I have install p7zip
[10:38] <startswithz_> !scp
[10:38] <ubotu> SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/
[10:38] <sonicGB> startswithz_: what do you need to achieve? a one-off copy, or something regular, or ....?
[10:38] <Rob423> I need some help lol
[10:38] <reverseblade> startswithz_, you could use a simple method, right click to a folder and share it
[10:38] <HDS43> !ati
[10:38] <jrib> drcode: yes, that command will tell you what commands you have
[10:38] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:38] <drcode> jrib, In what dir it put the 7za?
[10:39] <Music_Shuffle> !ask | Rob423
[10:39] <ubotu> Rob423: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:39] <startswithz_> sonicgb I need a one time copy
[10:39] <phiqtion> linux_kid: no. because i used an official CD
[10:39] <jrib> drcode: it seems to install 7zr and p7zip as commands you can run
[10:39] <reverseblade> startswithz_, what I have told you was a full samba server to be used as a file server
[10:39] <startswithz_> reverseblade that's what I was originally trying to do
[10:39] <sonicGB> from a box running knoppix to a box running some other linux?
[10:39] <reverseblade> startswithz_, and does it work for you ?
[10:39] <startswithz_> how do I just share the folder?
[10:39] <reverseblade> startswithz_, right click to that folder and click share folder
[10:39] <sonicGB> startswithz_: is sshd running on the destination box?
[10:39] <drcode> jrib, so in xarchive I need to change to 7zr?
[10:40] <startswithz_> I can see the folder on the other computer
[10:40] <startswithz_> well not the one I made in my home folder
[10:40] <jrib> drcode: I don't know what xarchive is
[10:40] <linux_kid> phiqton: no, i mean did you run a windows scan disk or NT's discchk?
[10:40] <startswithz_> so basically I have become very confused
[10:40] <reverseblade> startswithz_, are you following me ?
[10:40] <sege> I'm having trouble with gnome-terminal when I'm running Beryl. My tabs have the same color, active and inactive. Same thing with drag&drop in Evolution, the target marker have the same color as evolution-background or no color. Good solution anyone? =)
[10:40] <ToHellWithGA> how do you scp directories?
[10:40] <sonicGB> startswithz_: if it's a one-off, get a shell on the source box and type something to the effect of "rsync --archive --stats --progress /dir/where/files/are username@destination.box:/dir/where/I/want/the/files"
[10:40] <reverseblade> startswithz_, right click to the folder and click share folder than
[10:40] <Rob423> I am running VM-ware with Ubuntu.  I'm trying to install VM-tools.  now i can't install anything because i just realized im not in "super user" mode.   I only made 1 account so far .. how can I grant Super user access to this 1 account i've made?
[10:40] <startswithz_> reverseblade I did that
[10:40] <ToHellWithGA> i can handle files but directories don't go
[10:41] <usr_rob_> Why do I receive multiple prompts to login to my keyring?
[10:41] <usr_rob_> This is a known issue with 0.6.2, the problem is resolved in 0.6.3.
[10:41] <startswithz_> wait on which computer?
[10:41] <startswithz_> I'm gonna just go try to figure it out myself
[10:41] <sonicGB> on the source computer startswithz_
[10:41] <fuffe> hey.. I get this error when transfer a zip file with nautilus
[10:41] <raavi> rob423: try sudo su
[10:41] <fuffe> BAD FILE HANDLE
[10:41] <nuked_omen> good luck
[10:41] <sonicGB> startswithz_: pm me, I'll talk you through it.
[10:41] <Rob423> just type that into the terminal?
[10:41] <reverseblade> fuffe, prolly broken archive
[10:41] <wy> Is there a way to remove grub from the disk from Windows XP. I've tried many ways but none works
[10:41] <usr_rob_> Apparently not. I use 0.6.3
[10:41] <fuffe> to an ftp server
[10:41] <linux_kid> Rob423 do "sudo" or "gksudo" work
[10:41] <raavi> yeap
[10:41] <jrib> ToHellWithGA: -r
[10:41] <fuffe> I make a new archive.. same shit
[10:41] <reverseblade> wy, what ?
[10:42] <PriceChild> !language | fuffe
[10:42] <ubotu> fuffe: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:42] <Rob423> k i typed that and i got some stuff pop up
[10:42] <||arifaX> wy: shouldn't it work to boot recovery console from xp cd and type "fixboot" and "fixmbr" ?
[10:42] <reverseblade> fuffe, search it in google, really !!
[10:42] <ToHellWithGA> ok
[10:42] <ToHellWithGA> thanks
[10:42] <sonicGB> wy: in dos, "fdisk /MBR", in *nix, "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=1024 count=1"
[10:42] <darrel> sdefbs
[10:42] <reverseblade> fuffe, BAD..whatever
[10:42] <sonicGB> BUT, either of those will bork whatever's on your disk
[10:42] <Rob423> -p prompt... -u username - e file -i  -s
[10:42] <fuffe> reverseblade, I allready did.. find nothing useful
[10:43] <sonicGB> take the DOS option if you need to keep what's on the disk
[10:43] <reverseblade> fuffe, try creating different archives from different files, try to create extract it via command line
[10:43] <sonicGB> well done with all the samba silliness for that startswith guy folks... talk about making him do it the hard way... *sigh*
[10:43] <wy> sonicGB: Thanks! I can't book into dos. So are you sure the second command line is accurate?
[10:44] <sonicGB> wy: give me a minute to double check the second one
[10:44] <sonicGB> I know the bs=1024 is too big
[10:44] <wy> sonicGB: Thanks.
[10:44] <Slyboots_> Well this is just great.. I cant even install Ubuntu, and no-one seems to know why
[10:44] <sonicGB> wy: is there anything on the disk you need to keep, or are you just wiping it out to prepare for a complete re-install?
[10:44] <reverseblade> Slyboots_, what happens ?
[10:44] <wy> sonicGB: I don't want to break the system. That's my wife's computer now
[10:44] <Slyboots_> When I reach the partiion stage, It thinks both discs are blank
[10:44] <reverseblade> Slyboots_, just format your drive and go for it
[10:44] <Slyboots_> So I woudl rather not destroy all my date
[10:44] <Rob423> i typed sudo and just got some options.. i didn't see anything that says grant access or anything
[10:45] <Slyboots_> No I'll not bloody format my drive!
[10:45] <sonicGB> wy: then don't type the dd command line I gave you!
[10:45] <sleepytom> Can somebody tell me how to open a microsoft access .mdb file in Open Office?
[10:45] <reverseblade> Slyboots_, than it is not ubuntu's fault, but you have special requirements
[10:45] <Slyboots_> That it cant read SATA-RAID?
[10:45] <sonicGB> wy: what's on the box now? it's just winders xp and nothing else?
[10:45] <wy> ||arifaX: Is it something like safe mode but only with a console?
[10:45] <adrian> Does anybody know how to access aegis antivirus
[10:45] <Slyboots_> Heck, Even DOS could read the drive correctly
[10:45] <jhaig> I've found the wiki page on CompositeManager, and it warns against using Xgl and AIGLX because they are alpha, but the page is pre-Edgy.  Are these still considered unstable or do people use them now?
[10:45] <reverseblade> Slyboots_, it can read SATA but not sure of the RAID part
[10:46] <jrib> !sudo | Rob423
[10:46] <ubotu> Rob423: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:46] <Slyboots_> I see
[10:46] <linux_kid> Slyboots_ : you have to use the alt. cd for RAID partitioning
[10:46] <wy> sonicGB: Just windows XP
[10:46] <reverseblade> jhaig, AIGLX rocks
[10:46] <mjr> jhaig, yes and yes :]
[10:46] <Slyboots_> Oh goody.. What a waste of a cd..
[10:46] <graft> AIGLX is reasonably stable for me
[10:46] <reverseblade> jhaig, however, there might be some simple glitches that might annoy you
[10:46] <fuffe> reverseblade, ok, it seems to work with other files.. but the folder I want to create a zip archive contains thausands of files
[10:46] <jhaig> Thanks.  I was going to set it up, but I wanted to be sure it isn't going to mess things up.
[10:46] <wy> sonicGB: I wonder if there is a program can do this just inside windows XP.
[10:46] <Slyboots_> But does the Alt-CD just not use the same programs?
[10:46] <Slyboots_> Why would the results be any different
[10:47] <adrian> how do I access Aegis virus scanner
[10:47] <sonicGB> wy: with no access to dos, I think you need to play with the xp recovery console... that's something I really don't know much about....
[10:47] <krystyna> i have warnings when i install one program
[10:47] <graft> easy enough to undo AIGLX, since it just runs within your existing x-server anyway
[10:47] <UbuntuRob> Hey guys anyone care to help me install LIGHTTPD on Ubuntu 6.10? lol
[10:47] <reverseblade> Slyboots_, no, it is esp, prepared for your kind
[10:47] <UbuntuRob> I need elp
[10:47] <jrib> krystyna: what program?  and what are the warnings?
[10:47] <UbuntuRob> help*
[10:47] <wy> sonicGB: Press F8 when it starts?
[10:47] <sonicGB> wy: scratching my head here.... it's a bit over the top, but a re-install of XP, telling it to "repair" would definitely do it.
[10:47] <krystyna> its program wrote by my friend
[10:47] <jhaig> Thanks.  I'll have a go.
[10:47] <adrian> anybody useing aegis
[10:47] <krystyna> so i dont know how install without warnings
[10:48] <sonicGB> wy: yes... but after that, I don't know what to do. Googling for ideas here....
[10:48] <reverseblade> UbuntuRob, ruby on rails ?
[10:48] <jrib> krystyna: you need to provide more information
[10:48] <crouic6> hello everybody

[10:48] <krystyna> what is this program
[10:48] <krystyna> ok?
[10:48] <UbuntuRob> Reverseblad yes...
[10:48] <UbuntuRob> :)
[10:48] <reverseblade> ubuntulog, use mongrel, it is default installed in edge
[10:48] <jrib> krystyna: why not just say it here?
[10:48] <UbuntuRob> reverse how do I do that?
[10:48] <Slyboots_> Well back to windows to download..

[10:49] <peter07> hi, can smb help me to configure wifi?
[10:49] <crouic6> ok
[10:49] <reverseblade> UbuntuRob, I think you're new to Rails too. Are you trying to learn Rails ?
[10:49] <krystyna> i dont konw so much english :| to say
[10:49] <UbuntuRob> lol yes
[10:49] <reverseblade> peter07, !wireless
[10:49] <jrib> krystyna: what language do you prefer?
[10:49] <UbuntuRob> I used to have Redhat6
[10:49] <reverseblade> !wireless | peter07
[10:49] <ubotu> peter07: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:49] <malex> http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download#currentrelease downloads - If I get the ver. 6.10 CD - is it a "Live CD"? Thanks.
[10:49] <sonicGB> wy: do you have an XP install CD?
[10:49] <crouic6> I have an old zip drive paralel and how can i do with edgy ?
[10:50] <linux_kid> peter07: please tell me we are not talking about broadcom cards...
[10:50] <sleepytom> help with opening .mdb anybody?
[10:50] <UbuntuRob> Reverse; Basically I  need C+=/PHP5/Mysql/Rails/Perl/CGI all in one.
[10:50] <reverseblade> ubuntero_, you don't need any of those just install the rails package via synaptic and you will be fine
[10:50] <UbuntuRob> I want this Ubuntu to be a development machine
[10:50] <sonicGB> wy: your answer is here (boot into recovery console from install CD, use 'fixmbr' command) http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/483/xp_repair_fix_master_boot_record_recovery_console
[10:50] <UbuntuRob> I want php/mysql, etc.
[10:50] <UbuntuRob> I do know the languages.
[10:51] <UbuntuRob> Just not sure what a good server package would be
[10:51] <sonicGB> sleepytom: opening an mdb on *nix is a bit tricky...
[10:51] <reverseblade> ubuntulog, I see, but will you use rails actually ?
[10:51] <jrib> !lamp | UbuntuRob
[10:51] <ubotu> UbuntuRob: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[10:51] <crouic6> I had no problems with dapper bu under eddgy when I start the pc; the pc is stopped
[10:51] <phiqtion> how can i write with permission to NTFS mounted partition?
[10:51] <reverseblade> jrib, he is another samba'er case
[10:51] <bhudda> sleepytom: check out this program, maybe it will help you. I really have no idea though. http://mdbtools.sourceforge.net/
[10:51] <fuffe> reverseblade, dunno.. I just transfer with nautilus
[10:51] <crouic6> with ntfs3g
[10:51] <jrib> !fuse | phiqtion
[10:51] <ubotu> phiqtion: Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[10:52] <reverseblade> fuffe, nautilus do not have FTP support, you can't use FTP
[10:52] <peter07> ubotu: i've read doc, it doesn't help me
[10:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i've read doc, it doesn't help me - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:52] <UbuntuRob> Ubotu I see that and have woirked with a LAMP
[10:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about I see that and have woirked with a LAMP - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:52] <wy> sonicGB: Can I boot into recovery console from the harddisk?
[10:52] <sonicGB> sleepytom: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/483/xp_repair_fix_master_boot_record_recovery_console
[10:52] <sonicGB> sleepytom: sorry, wrong url... wait....
[10:52] <reverseblade> phiqtion, I tried ntfs3g, works perfect
[10:52] <linux_kid> phiqtion: Warning! using ntfs3g can crash your ntfs partition
[10:52] <sonicGB> sleepytom: http://dba.openoffice.org/drivers/mdb/
[10:52] <reverseblade> linux_kid, no
[10:52] <krystyna> jrib: on my language dont want help me :/ only joke
[10:52] <peter07> linux_kid: no  broadcom card
[10:53] <reverseblade> phiqtion, it is well tested and stable
[10:53] <fuffe> reverseblade, weird.. I have used it for ftp transfers for a week now.. has worked much better than gftp which crashed too much
[10:53] <sleepytom> thanks, guys
[10:53] <linux_kid> reverseblade... no?
[10:53] <devnull__> hello ... i have read the docs but i am having trouble getting fglrx working correctly and i can't figure out why
[10:53] <devnull__> fglrxinfo keeps coming up as mesa crap
[10:53] <reverseblade> linux_kid, no it is well tested and stable, ntfs3g is rather new, not like the older methods
[10:53] <sonicGB> wy: I don't think so, but not 100% sure... press f8 at boot time and see what options it gives you. I think you need an install cd though
[10:53] <jrib> krystyna: ok, join me in #ubuntu-classroom .  There won't be as much traffic there
[10:53] <davro_> people actually still use ftp
[10:53] <reverseblade> fuffe, oh, are you typing ftp://
[10:53] <sleepytom> Cool, thanks Sonic GB
[10:54] <devnull__> davro .. you dont ?
[10:54] <linux_kid> reverseblade cool, thanx
[10:54] <reverseblade> fuffe, sorry it supports ftp, I got it wrong
[10:54] <sonicGB> u welcome sleepytom. good luck
[10:54] <fenrig> can anyone here
[10:54] <UbuntuRob> Crap I need to learn this... :x
[10:54] <devnull__> is there a channel for fglrx issues ?
[10:54] <reverseblade> fuffe, try ftp'ing via different client
[10:54] <fenrig> make printer driver
[10:54] <fuffe> reverseblade, no problem, mate
[10:54] <fenrig> ?
[10:54] <phiqtion> how can i transfer a .rar file to NTFS using fuse?
[10:54] <reverseblade> fenrig, what ?
[10:54] <devnull__> since ubuntu wiki and docs aren't helping at all ?
[10:54] <fenrig> make a printer driver for linux
[10:54] <davro_> no,username password are an issue.
[10:55] <sonicGB> fenrig: yes, I can make printer drivers. I'll give you exactly what you want for USD$50.00....
[10:55] <fuffe> reverseblade, the weird thing is.. the files get uploaded.. but I get that error anyway
[10:55] <fenrig> nah
[10:55] <reverseblade> phiqtion, just create and mount your :NTFS partion and you can use it as if it is a local directory no difference
[10:55] <sonicGB> fenrig: or you could buy turboprint for USD$39
[10:55] <reverseblade> fuffe, try a different client, use console ftp
[10:55] <linux_kid> anyone know if lexmark has linux printer drivers?
[10:55] <phiqtion> reverseblade: it's automatically mounted but i can't seem to write on it with nautilus
[10:55] <mnoir> reverseblade: nautilus doc says it does suppotrt ftp
[10:55] <fenrig> damn
[10:55] <mnoir> support even
[10:55] <fenrig> i really need some drivers
[10:55] <reverseblade> phiqtion, have you used ntfs3g ?
[10:55] <fenrig> does anyone knows
[10:55] <reverseblade> mnoir, oh ok
[10:56] <fenrig> some channel, or sombody
[10:56] <phiqtion> reverseblade: no, should i get it?
[10:56] <davro_> refuse to use ftp unless it is sftp at the very least.
[10:56] <reverseblade> fuffe, just try a different client
[10:56] <sonicGB> fenrig: you really need to buy the drivers you need.
[10:56] <reverseblade> phiqtion, if you want to write to your ntfs partition, yes it is a must
[10:56] <phiqtion> reverseblade: its not available in universe or multiverse it seems
[10:56] <UltimateMacUser1> hi hi
[10:56] <fenrig> *grum*
[10:56] <reverseblade> linux_kid, AFAIK, the support is poor
[10:56] <skianto> hello everybody
[10:57] <reverseblade> !ntfs3g | phiqtion
[10:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:57] <sonicGB> linux_kid: I wouldn't touch a lexmark printer with a ten foot pole myself (so I have no direct experience) but googling for "lexmark linux drivers" turns up a lot of promising looking hits
[10:57] <reverseblade> oh
[10:57] <reverseblade> phiqtion, just google it
[10:57] <linux_kid> ok
[10:57] <cassio> hello everybody!
[10:57] <fenrig> sometimes i hate the canon support
[10:57] <reverseblade> linux_kid, your last resort would be installing windows xp via vmware and use your printer from there
[10:57] <phiqtion> reverseblade: do you know about grub? after installing ubuntu, i cant access my xp partition even though it's listed on the grub list
[10:57] <cassio> i'm runnig kutuntu (dapper drake) in a compal notebook
[10:57] <fenrig> does anyone knows
[10:58] <cassio> it comes with a webcam
[10:58] <fenrig> how i can install the cvs version of gutenprint?
[10:58] <cassio> but i just can't make it work...
[10:58] <cassio> how could i?
[10:58] <reverseblade> phiqtion, I am not very experienced, but I am sure there is a fix for this
[10:58] <phiqtion> reverseblade: im thinking DMA?
[10:58] <reverseblade> phiqtion, what do you mean
[10:58] <nweaver916> anyone here ever try to generate a key in puttygen and then import it using ssh-add? Mine rejects the password :(
[10:59] <reverseblade> cassio, may be you can't for webcams no guarantees
[10:59] <sonicGB> phiqtion: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009
[10:59] <skianto> any x86_64 experts online?

[10:59] <sonicGB> phiqtion: http://everythingelse.wordpress.com/2006/07/19/89/
[10:59] <phiqtion> reverseblade: back then in ubuntu 5.10, grub wouldn't load xp and i changed LBA settings on my HD sorry, not DMA and it seemed to boot
[11:00] <phiqtion> sonicGB: thanks bro
[11:00] <reverseblade> phiqtion, dunno
[11:00] <wy> sonicGB: I get into the command from the install CD. Is fixmbr and fixboot the same?
[11:00] <skianto> I have a problem with my  turion x2  based laptop
[11:00] <davro_> cassio have you asked the manufacture of these compal notebooks for os drivers, never heard of this manufacture before.
[11:00] <reverseblade> skianto, pavilion ?
[11:00] <fenrig> does anyone knows how to install the cvs of gutenprint
[11:00] <skianto> yes :)
[11:01] <phiqtion> how do i know what version of ubuntu im running? DAPPER? EDGY?
[11:01] <reverseblade> skianto, dv ?
[11:01] <reverseblade> phiqtion, System , about
[11:01] <skianto> it's an european model
[11:01] <reverseblade> skianto, dv6000 ?
[11:01] <sonicGB> wy: I don't know dude... I'm really no expert on 'fixing' xp.... I usually just use fdisk/format to fix problems! :-)
[11:01] <reverseblade> anyway what is your problem ?
[11:01] <skianto> v6128EU
[11:01] <pike_> phiqtion: rule of thumb for most distros cat /etc/*release
[11:01] <alaa_> hello
[11:02] <reverseblade> skianto, what is your problem ?
[11:02] <phiqtion> EDGY is newer? i thought dapper would automatically upgrade to EDGY with the updates?
[11:02] <cassio> davro it's from asia i think... they sell "whitebooks", so other companies just put another parts, their name and them sell it
[11:02] <cassio> I bought it here in Brazil
[11:02] <reverseblade> phiqtion, no
[11:02] <wy> sonicGB: fixmbr works. Thank you!
[11:02] <skianto> well, I have some
[11:02] <reverseblade> phiqtion, go for edgy, edgy rocks
[11:02] <KenSentMe> I have a problem with running audacity, it can't use the sounddevices. I have software mixing enabled like in the wiki. Anyone know a solution?
[11:02] <alaa_> i'm having trouble using the ati installer on ubuntu 6.10 for my drivers
 not sure what the easist way its but cat /etc/apt/sources.list should get you there.
[11:02] <sonicGB> wy: u welcome... glad you're sorted! :-)
[11:02] <reverseblade> skianto, if you want solutions you have to tell
[11:02] <skianto> with the kernel installed by edgy eft...
[11:02] <skianto> powernow is working
[11:03] <alaa_> it gives me this error: Could not open the file /home/alaa/Desktop/ati-dler-8.32.5-x86.x86_64.run.
[11:03] <skianto> but sound support is broken
[11:03] <reverseblade> skianto, look, there is no ACPI support, your wireless wont work
[11:03] <john76> anyone know if thier is a way to lock the cpu to the highest speed in ubuntu
[11:03] <phiqtion> 6.06 LTS is EDGY?
[11:03] <skianto> if I try any other kernel...
[11:03] <reverseblade> reverseblade, sound ?
[11:03] <john76> speedstep annoys me
[11:03] <DARKGuy> phiqtion: nope
[11:03] <skianto> I can use the sound, but I lose powernow
[11:03] <EDinNY> can someone tell me what is wrong with this command? "mount -t smbfs -o user=ed //machine_name/ed/ c5
[11:03] <phiqtion> DARKguy: can i update with apt-get? or should i download a fresh .iso and start from scratch?
[11:03] <alaa_> some1 help me =(
[11:03] <reverseblade> skianto, If you can keep up your system I suggest you Fiesty
[11:03] <john76> In windows I use a program speedstepXP
[11:04] <vanberge> can you change your color depth without having to edit the xorg.conf?
[11:04] <skianto> yes, wireless is another problem
[11:04] <reverseblade> skianto, kernels prior to 2.6.18 have some problems with this lappy
[11:04] <skianto> I tried one of the Fiesty kernel
[11:04] <HuibertGill> john76: I have a shell script to flip from min to max cpu speed
[11:04] <skianto> but none of them supports powernow on my laptop
[11:04] <HuibertGill> john76: and back again
[11:05] <reverseblade> skianto, 3 options, deal with each problem (mostly works), upgrade your kernel to 2.6.19 (dunno), use fiesty (works fine but will break in the future)
[11:05] <DARKGuy> phiqtion: Personally, I'd download the ISO and start from scratch. You can, however, update: Change your /etc/apt/sources.list for the one shown in http://www.ubuntuguide.com adn then in a terminal type "sudo apt-get update" If all goes good, you can upgrade by "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[11:05] <john76> HuibertGill can I see the script
[11:05] <phiqtion> DARKGuy: thanks for the tip
[11:05] <fenrig> !gimpprint
[11:05] <DARKGuy> phiqtion: my bad, in http://www.ubuntuguide.org
[11:05] <skianto> I tried 2.6.19 & 2.6.20
[11:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gimpprint - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:05] <fenrig> !gutenprint
[11:05] <DARKGuy> phiqtion: no problem, good luck ^^
[11:05] <skianto> none of them is working
[11:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gutenprint - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:05] <reverseblade> skianto, I do not know about powernowd problems
[11:05] <HuibertGill> john76: to go for full speed: sudo cpufreq-selector -f 2000000 -g performance
[11:05] <reverseblade> skianto, tried fiesty ?
[11:05] <sonicGB> johnI found a thread that talks about fixing another problem by tweaking /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
[11:06] <HuibertGill> john76: to change the speed back to minimal use "-f 1"
[11:06] <sonicGB> john76: I wonder if you could solve your problem by setting min and max to the same number?
[11:06] <skianto> not the whole distribution, just the kernels
[11:06] <john76> how long will it stay at that speed
[11:07] <skianto> I also tried to compile a vanilla kernel myself... same result, powernow is unsupported
[11:07] <reverseblade> skianto, try it with noapic , also 32 bit kernel might result better
[11:07] <john76> where do I set min and max
[11:07] <Alakazamz0r_> skianto, did it taste like vanilla?
[11:07] <john76> I'm willin to try it
[11:07] <reverseblade> skianto, other than that your prolly out of luck
[11:07] <skianto> of course I have to boot every kernel I tried with noapic nolapic
[11:07] <john76> ah
[11:07] <john76> work a try
[11:07] <reverseblade> skianto, otherwise it wont boot ,ehh
[11:07] <HuibertGill> john76: the important parameter is -g performace
[11:08] <skianto> it will hang at some phase during startup
[11:08] <HuibertGill> john76: it is the "speed govenor"
[11:08] <reverseblade> skianto, I see, try fiesty 32 bit, as a last resort
[11:08] <unimatrix9> hi there
[11:08] <john76> well that command seems to set the speed just fine
[11:08] <unimatrix9> just a quick question
[11:08] <skianto>  but... why 2.6.17 works?
[11:09] <unimatrix9> where does the waste go, when i delete thing as root?
[11:09] <Rob423> can someone PM me i need some help installing something on ubuntu
[11:09] <reverseblade> skianto, may be 2.6.19 works too, but custom compiling breaks something
[11:09] <unimatrix9> or , where is the root waste bin?
[11:09] <Slart> Rob423: I don't think you can pm on this server.. just ask the question
[11:09] <reverseblade> Rob423, just ask
[11:09] <graft> Rob423, ask it here...
[11:09] <reverseblade> unimatrix9, doh ?
[11:09] <jhaig> OK, I've configured aiglx a la <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/AIGLXOnEdgy> and I have restarted X.  This may be a silly question but, erm, how do I now use it?
[11:09] <unimatrix9> yeah?
[11:09] <skianto> thinking about a compiler issue?
[11:09] <Rob423> k, well #1.  when i type su- and my pw its saying it's no good
[11:09] <reverseblade> unimatrix9, where is your paste bin ?
[11:09] <graft> jhaig: get beryl?
[11:10] <Rob423> i only made 1 account 1 user name
[11:10] <HuibertGill> unimatrix9: trash is in /root/.Trash
[11:10] <reverseblade> unimatrix9, waste bin
[11:10] <Jet2k5__> Hello I'm new to ubunt,I'm trying to install Ubuntu but my keyboard isn't working :\, any clues?
[11:10] <unimatrix9> oh, hehe
[11:10] <python> weee
[11:10] <unimatrix9> :P
[11:10] <jhaig> graft: Is that the window manager?
[11:10] <unimatrix9> silly me
[11:10] <python> im on ubuntu with gnome plus VNC
[11:10] <python> we
[11:10] <Rob423> when i go to my terminal it says rizzle @ rizzle-desktop:~$
[11:10] <graft> jhaig: yah... runs on AIGLX
[11:10] <Rob423> does this mean im logged in as my root?
[11:10] <reverseblade> Rob423, try sudo login -f user
[11:11] <reverseblade> Rob423, as long as you don't have # you are not root,
[11:11] <Rob423> ok i tried that command
[11:11] <john76> ok I set it lets see what happens when I reboot
[11:11] <reverseblade> Rob423, what exactly are you trying to achive ?
[11:11] <Rob423> it said.  user not known to the underlying authetication module
[11:11] <jhaig> graft: OK, thanks.
[11:11] <Rob423> is it possible i never made a root account?
[11:11] <unimatrix9> ok got the trash out of root waste bin, you are the savers of the day
[11:12] <jrib> Rob423: have you read the page on sudo that ubotu told you about?
[11:12] <unimatrix9> thnx
[11:12] <reverseblade> Rob423, there is the root account, it is impossible
[11:12] <unimatrix9> and bye bye
[11:12] <Lunis> would someone be so kind as to recommend me an ide for langs like c#, ruby, perl, python, etc?
[11:12] <Slart> Rob423: Ubuntu doesn't use the root account like that
[11:12] <youser> anyone know where i can ge help for the program nicotine?
[11:12] <Rob423> when i sign into the ubuntu itself in the begining.. is that my main root account?
[11:12] <youser> not the chemical addiction
[11:12] <jrib> Rob423: no
[11:12] <reverseblade> Lunis, for c# mono develop, for ruby , perl python use vim
[11:12] <willskills> Rob423,  no, it's not
[11:12] <Rob423> oh shit, how can i find the username of the root account
[11:12] <Slart> Rob423: nope.. you have your user account. use sudo for everything root-related
[11:12] <jhaig> graft: Is there a reason to use beryl instead of compiz?
[11:13] <reverseblade> Rob423, no root account is a different thing. your created user becomes a  valid sudo'er
[11:13] <Lunis> reverseblade: :) i personally wouldn't call vim an "ide"
[11:13] <PriceChild> !language | Rob423
[11:13] <ubotu> Rob423: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:13] <jrib> Rob423: read the page ubotu told you about
[11:13] <reverseblade> Lunis, true but it beats all other
[11:13] <graft> jhaig: more stable, under more active development
[11:13] <Rob423> ah sorry
[11:13] <Slart> Rob423: don't ... if you really really need a root console you can do sudo su
[11:13] <pike_> Lunis: vim takes some adjusting but with :syntax on  is very nice
[11:13] <Lunis> reverseblade: not when i need an ide.
[11:13] <Rob423> what page
[11:13] <toma> any clues about https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/73057/ ?
[11:13] <jrib> !sudo  | Rob423
[11:13] <ubotu> Rob423: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:13] <reverseblade> Lunis, when you code, ruby, you don't need an ide
[11:13] <Rob423> do you need to be the root to install a program?
[11:13] <jhaig> graft: OK, thanks again.  It is just that compiz is in one of the default repositories, while beryl isn't.
[11:13] <Rob423> im just trying to load vm tools, cause im running vmware
[11:14] <reverseblade> Rob423, define install in your context
[11:14] <mnoir> Rob423: read. the. page.
[11:14] <Lunis> reverseblade: i meant an ide for c# that i can use for ruby, py, et al
[11:14] <Slart> Rob423: use synaptic... or use sudo apt-get install mysoftware
[11:14] <Rob423> im trying to install VM tools for the vmware software
[11:14] <graft> jhaig: yeah, not yet - but you can find auxiliary repositories pretty easily - try beryl-project.org
[11:14] <youser> anyone?
[11:14] <john76> sigh
[11:14] <Rob423> download synaptic?
[11:14] <john76> editing that did nothing
[11:14] <reverseblade> Lunis, may be eclipse with its plugins
[11:14] <reverseblade> Rob423, VM ?
[11:14] <Lunis> reverseblade: alrighty, thanks, i'll look in to it :)
[11:14] <UbuntuRob> For some reason my Ubuntu is laggy as hell updating the visual screen image; Any clue how to fix that?

[11:15] <Rob423> vm-ware workstation.  virtual machine software
[11:15] <Slart> Rob423: I'm going to refer to what mnoir said.... read the page suggested to you.. it's easier than us repeating it all to you
[11:15] <reverseblade> Rob423, you mean vmware ? ahh to install windows ?
[11:15] <reverseblade> milli, google it
[11:15] <mnoir> it is also very well written!
[11:15] <Rob423> nah, i have windows installed, i used vmware to install linux
[11:15] <reverseblade> milli, seek for linux support not ubunut
[11:15] <Rob423> just to fool around
[11:15] <milli> reverseblade: I did, nothing specific for Ubuntu comes up
[11:15] <UbuntuRob> ?
[11:15] <graft> UbuntuRob: what are you running? gnome?
[11:16] <reverseblade> milli, dont be concerned about ubuntu, if it works for linux it will work for ubuntu
[11:16] <milli> reverseblade: HighPoint distributes a binary driver, but it's core is proprietary, like fglrx is..
[11:16] <UbuntuRob> Ubuntu 6.10
[11:16] <Rob423> yea
[11:16] <Rob423> the newest one on the site
[11:16] <Rob423> it said get this for the latest things or whatever
[11:16] <reverseblade> Rob423, dunno never done before that
[11:16] <milli> reverseblade: I'm concerned,  because the install disk needs to support it  ;-)  All my drives will be on that controller.
[11:16] <HuibertGill> Rob423: yould you be a bit more precise :-)
[11:16] <fenrig> the command
[11:16] <fenrig> cvs  doesnt work
[11:17] <reverseblade> milli, good luck I dunno
[11:17] <Rob423> i got the 6.10
