[21:00] <Kl4m> CaBlGuY: oh, I thought xmms was not available anymore, anyway they're really the same
[21:01] <karsten> Frijolie: chmod g+r.  chgrp <groupid> file.  Make sure you and other user are part of same group.  If it's safe to, make file world-readable.
[21:01] <ghrocks> hey there everybody, how you doing??
[21:01] <karsten> evan_: Don't PM me
[21:01] <ty> !botsnack
[21:01] <ty> lol
[21:01] <evan_> ok
[21:02] <karsten> Frijolie: bulk:  scp -r (recurse through dirs), rsync.
[21:02] <CaBlGuY> Kl4m,  no worries...  thanks though,.,.
[21:02] <ghrocks> hey guys, im having a problem, i dunno if anyone could help me =)
[21:02] <karsten> Frijolie: If it's a one-time deal, scp is fine.  rsync is *much* more efficient at syncronizing large filetrees.  Learn it, it's very, very, very worthwhile.
[21:02] <eddVRS> ghrocks: what is it then?
[21:03] <BikgerGeek> ghrocks: Just ask your question.  If anyone knows the answer, they'll chime in.
[21:03] <ghrocks> thnx
[21:03] <evan_> i finally got it working thanks everyone
[21:03] <Frijolie> karsten: i have experimented with rsync before as a means for backup to an external HDD and wound up deleting 1GB of pictures
[21:03] <jbroome_> Frijolie: the -n parameter is your friend
[21:04] <gigel2007> hello
[21:04] <karsten> Frijolie: http://sial.org/howto/rsync/#s5
[21:04] <gigel2007> I have a question
[21:04] <karsten> Frijolie: ... a decent start.  Lots of other examples online.
[21:04] <ebcl> anyone have a moment to debug my evidently flawed syntax in  /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default ?
[21:04] <Frijolie> so ever since then, i'm hesitant to use it until I can master it's capabilites
[21:04] <gigel2007> if I install like : sudo apt-get install program
[21:04] <halycon> hey everyone I just downloaded the ISO of Intrepid Ibex and am wondering how to upgrade my existing Wubi install using the ISO
[21:04] <karsten> Frijolie: http://diveintomark.org/archives/2008/10/28/essentials-2008 (fixed link)
[21:04] <ghrocks> i have problems with firefox, whenever i open it keeps like loading, but it doesn't freeze, i dont have any bookmark and it appears like if it has loaded completely but i don't see anything, like the blank page as homepage on ie, but i have assisgned a homepage
[21:04] <gigel2007> where does ubuntu put my program
[21:04] <karsten> !ask gigel2007
[21:04] <karsten> !ask > gigel2007
[21:05] <BikgerGeek> ghrocks:  Does it display the firefox window, or only show the "Starting Firefox" button?
[21:06] <Aireas> does anyone know what [   92.670413] ---[ end trace cbe85998192731bd ]--- means? The Ubuntu installation keeps freezing at this point.
[21:06] <karsten> Frijolie: There are some pretty standard recipies (rsync -avz <localdir> <remotehost>:<remotedir>) which give you a lot of mileage.
[21:06] <karsten> Aireas: That's a kernel logging entry
[21:06] <gigel2007> if I install like : sudo apt-get install program , where does ubuntu install the program? like in windows you install sometihng you choose the location and you can view the folder, why do I have limited choices in linux?
[21:06] <karsten> Aireas: What precedes it?
[21:07] <BikgerGeek> Aireas:  Mine did that.  Turns out the CD didn't burn correctly.  Have use the verify cd menu option from the live cd menu.
[21:07] <ghrocks> it displays firefox completely
[21:07] <karsten> gigel2007: it installs the program where the package files go.  'dpkg -L <package>' to list all files in a package.
[21:07] <denis__> hi
[21:07] <lifestream> Does anyone know of a easy way to remove songs that do no longer exist, from my Banshee library?  There's sooo many old songs on my Library!
[21:07] <BikgerGeek> ghrocks:  Sorry, but just to make sure, can your system access the internet?
[21:07] <denis__> someone can tell me what is the command to format my hdd please ?
[21:07] <Aireas> Karsten: ? system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
[21:07] <karsten> gigel2006: Packages install files at various locations which are standardized for the entire system.  usually /usr/bin, /usr/share, /usr/lib, and other bits.
[21:08] <lifestream> denis__,  does it have to be from the terminal? if not, you can use gparted. or type parted from command line
[21:08] <gavagai> Does anyone have experience installing on a dell laptop with media direct?  Can I just use my media direct partition as linux swap, or will something weird happen if i delete that partition?
[21:08] <JulioNeto> #ubuntu-classroom
[21:08] <karsten> Aireas: How about you pastebin a dozen lines or so.  is the system still up?
[21:08] <memeemeee> I'm having serious networking problems. I put the new PCI card in the computer but linux doesn't see it
[21:08] <eddVRS> gigel: in CLI: which <program-name>
[21:08] <lifestream> denis__, you've got to run those as root
[21:08] <denis__> I think it is enough
[21:08] <denis__> thanks lifestream
[21:08] <Aireas> karsten: it's on my laptop but I am typing to you from my desktop :(
[21:08] <lifestream> np
[21:09] <karsten> JulioNeto: Wozzat?
 Thanks, so in linux linux handles it ? so that for example you can use a direct command in a terminal, it does that automatically ?
[21:09] <ghrocks> yes, it can, yesterday i had a problem with authentication software or secure sites, it solved itself after some time, but right now, it's only firefox, i can acces through opera, or any software but i can't with fireox
[21:09] <shameless> does anyone have any experience with cabextract?
[21:09] <JulioNeto> karsten, OpenWeek Channel
[21:09] <xiamx> hey guys, I have a problem with compiling gnome-sharp, I installed all develepement parkage but,  it just don't want to build gnome-sharp.dll
[21:09] <denis__> how can I run it ?
[21:09] <Aireas> karsten: I'll start typing it up as I see it
[21:09] <karsten> Aireas: <alt><F#> will toggle between virtual terminals.  There's different stuff logged in different places.  If you can see any of these, process steps should be described.
[21:09] <denis__> because Im under KDE
[21:09] <karsten> JulioNeto: I sorta noticed that.  What's  OpenWeek?
[21:10] <denis__> and I don't know...
[21:10] <JulioNeto> karsten, join and see :)
[21:10] <karsten> Aireas: If you've got a camera and can upload screenshots, that might be faster.
[21:10] <BikgerGeek> ghrocks:  I'm not too familiar with Firefox's security exceptions, but if you were having problems previously with secure sites, you might want to check a Firefox support forum to see if anyone else is experiencing anything similar.
[21:10] <karsten> JulioNeto: Not enough bandwidth.
[21:10] <karsten> JulioNeto: Pitch me.
 Thanks, so in linux linux handles it ? so that for example you can use a direct command in a terminal, it does that automatically ?
[21:11] <ghrocks> thnx, bikger geek, i just want to make sure if it may be a problem with the os or a script on it
[21:11] <karsten> gigel2006: Sorry, context?
[21:11] <Aireas> karsten: I don't have a camera anymore. I tried hitting Alt+F4 but nothing happened. It seems to have locked up. I'll start typing it if that is okay.
[21:11] <ltghesp> Is it possible to resize encrypted partitions in a lvm? and is it possible to grow the whole lvm partition ??
 it was about knowing where the program is installed like in windows, so in linux linux handles it ? so that for example you can use a direct command in a terminal, it does that automatically ?
[21:12] <karsten> Aireas: alt-sysrq-?
[21:12] <karsten> Aireas: sysrq == PrtSc key on most PC keyboards.
[21:12] <ghrocks> ok guys, thnx a lot, see ya
[21:12] <shameless> i'm trying to get ChemCad to work under hardy, i've got all the pre-requisite components installed, but the installer gives me this error: http://pastebin.com/m282a95b7
 okay, I hit alt+sysrq
[21:12] <Bruk0ut> anyone here had problems auth'ing to a BNC with XChat? i keep getting bad user/pass from server but its correct. I have googled but cant fix :/. in windows (mirc) its fine, and i connect no probs
[21:13] <karsten> gigel2006: Linux defines a standard filesystem layout (FHS) and set of facilities present (LSB).  The package manager (APT for Ubuntu) puts pieces of software  & systems packages where they belong within this hierarchy, manage relationships between packages, configure them, track files, and handle uninstall.
[21:13] <patmaddox> I want to install ubuntu on one of the last-gen MBPs... it's an intel core 2 duo, but not the latest one.  I looked at http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt and the available archs are i386 and amd64.  Which one should I pick?  I thought I can use 64 bit but it looks like that's just amd?
[21:13] <brandon_> Anyone have any suggestions for getting a USB headset to work?
 so therefore it's all automatic ?
[21:14] <karsten> gigel2006: See also Debian Policy (which Ubuntu adopts as well) which defines more stuff about the package management.
[21:14] <arrrghhh> so i swapped my mobo, and now i have no network devices.  i thought linux didn't care what hardware i had installed.
[21:14] <karsten> gigel2006: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/LSB
[21:14] <Sajuta> patmaddox: It's essentially 32 bit or 62 bit, and what your processor can handle.
[21:14] <Sajuta> I mean 64*
 I hit the alt+sysrq but I don't think I can paste it anywhere. The system seems locked up so I would have to reboot it
[21:14] <gigel2006> is it all automatic then ?
[21:14] <karsten> arrrghhh: udev tracks NICs by MAC and will renumber devices.
[21:15] <genii> arrrghhh: If you had eth0 now will be eth1   old eth1 wil be eth2 now. And so on
[21:15] <arrrghhh> genii, all i have is lo.  no eth devices
[21:15] <arrrghhh> karsten, que?

[21:15] <Aireas> sorry miss type
[21:15] <CaBlGuY> well,  I had to install Audacious....  xmms2 is command line and I'm not that uber yet..  :-p    Audacious don't seem that recource intrusive to me but, I got 64 processor and 2 gig of ram..  ;)
[21:15] <karsten> arrrghhh: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net-rules
[21:16] <genii> arrrghhh: udev keeps a list of adapters it finds by mac address and will keep incrementing the ethX number even if the old ones no longer exisy
[21:16] <Koordin> hi, someone is saying me that i may have a conflict in several qt installations ; how can i clean them up with apt-get ?
[21:16] <onexused> For some reason, the software sources program seems to no longer be on my computer.  gksudo software-sources-gtk does nothing but ask for a password, and locate software-sources-gtk gives no results.  How do I reinstall it?
[21:16] <arrrghhh> hrm... how can i get it back to eth0 then?
[21:16] <genii> karsten: Thanks, was just looking for that :)
[21:16] <karsten> arrrghhh: /sbin/ifconfig -a should list all known network devices.  If you see say, eth2, eth3, eth4, rather than starting w/ eth0, you've had devices renumbered.  Or you have a diffeent problem.
[21:16] <gigel2006> Does anyone know how can you use injectin with ath9k, google doesn't know anything about that
[21:16] <karsten> arrrghhh: One sec.
[21:16] <karsten> gigel2006: NP
[21:16] <genii> arrrghhh: Edit the file karsten indicated
[21:16] <patmaddox> Sajuta: so I can download the amd64 iso even though my machine has a 64-bit intel proc?
[21:16] <PastorBones> anybody willing to help me get my sound working now?
[21:17] <Sajuta> patmaddox: Sure can.
[21:17] <patmaddox> Sajuta: cool, thanks
[21:17] <arrrghhh> genii, ok, i'm gonna swap monitors and see if this works.  i'm too lazy to drag my old crt up here lol
[21:17] <karsten> arrrghhh: I think you can just manually edit the file and renumber the high-numbered interfaces to 0, 1, etc.  Or delete the file and it's regenerated at boot when the udev scripts are run.
[21:17] <karsten> patmaddox: yes.
[21:18] <jarco> hello. Anyone an idea why alias nano ='sudo nano' is not working?
[21:18] <karsten> patmaddox: Intel uses the AMD64 instruction set.  IA64 == Itanium which is pretty much deaddeaddead.
[21:18] <karsten> Koordin: what packages are conflicting?
[21:18] <eddVRS> jarco: you have a space after =, try removing that
[21:18] <karsten> Koordin: ... and are they Ubuntu or third-party packages?
[21:18] <jarco> ok eddVRS
[21:18] <eddVRS> jarco: sorry, I meant before the =
[21:19] <shameless> i'm trying to get ChemCad to work under hardy, i've got all the pre-requisite components installed, but the installer gives me this error: http://pastebin.com/m282a95b7
[21:19] <Koordin> karsten: i'm on kubuntu ; i think that's qt4
[21:19] <arrrghhh> karsten, genii, i think you both hit the nail on the head.  there was an entry for eth0 w/my old via crap and a new entry for eth1.  i'm rebooting now.
[21:19] <gigel2006> Does anyone know how can you use injectin with ath9k, I have an atheros AR9281 and the ath9k are already instaled but NO INJECTION
[21:19] <karsten> arrrghhh: Ok.  I think that reboot helps sort things out faster though it shouldn't be strictly necessary.
[21:20] <jarco> ok eddVRS
[21:20] <arrrghhh> karsten, yea i just decided to blast out the file and reboot.  didn't feel like editing it, and the old entry didn't need to be there.
[21:20] <arrrghhh> hooray the server is pinging!
[21:20] <karsten> arrrghhh: renaming is usually better than deleting.
[21:20] <PastorBones> what is the alternative to alsa?
[21:20] <vurv> maco: any response?
[21:21] <jarco> works now eddVRS  thx
[21:21] <memeemeee> I'm having serious networking problems. I put the new PCI card in the computer but linux doesn't see it
[21:21] <arrrghhh> karsten, true, i probably should've renamed the file.  but it's workin and i'm happy.  now to learn how to partition my 1tb hdd at the command prompt!
[21:21] <suleyman> hey folks. I know you can run stuff with "nohup {executable}" so it stays running after logging off. But is there a way to apply nohup an already running process. y backup is taking too long and I want to go home :-)
[21:22] <suleyman> Maybe I can ctrl-z and then bg (background) the brogram
[21:22] <eddVRS> jarco: gd news!
[21:22] <karsten> arrrghhh: mv file file.bak or mv file file.$( date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S )
[21:22] <dmhardison> I am getting an error and the machine does not complete its shutdown it is about NetworkManager nm_dbus_signal_device_status_change: assertion ..... bus_connection` failed. Can someone please help me out.
[21:22] <karsten> arrrghhh: echo $( date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S ) to see what that does.
[21:22] <kenny__> can someone here help me get gmake  ? I am trying to install vmgl and it needs gmake.
[21:22] <djeday> how make wget go through isa proxy server with ntml auth ?
[21:22] <arrrghhh> karsten, yes i know how to rename files.  i know that's what i should've done in case i needed to reinstate, but it's no biggie.
[21:23] <karsten> suleyman: First suggestion:    learn to use screen.
[21:23] <Iradieh> Is there a way to give you permission on files and all subfiles and subfolders with chown? I copyed some stuff from another distro
[21:23] <karsten> arrrghhh: it's the date string substitution to create a timestamp for the backup fi.e
[21:23] <karsten> file
[21:23] <arrrghhh> karsten, 20081105-142309 - why?
[21:23] <jimcooncat> screen is awesome in a most awesome way
[21:23] <gigel2006> Does anyone know the atheros support channel ?
[21:23] <suleyman> :)
[21:23] <arrrghhh> Iradieh, the -R switch applies to everything recursively.
[21:23] <suleyman> man screen
[21:24] <karsten> arrrghhh: That's a datestamp in YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS format.  I find it useful for remembering *when* I created a particular backup file.
[21:24] <arrrghhh> karsten, don't sweat it.  server's already rebooted, and i'm sshed into it now.
[21:24] <karsten> arrrghhh: Yeah, just sharing the Wisdom.
[21:24] <onexused> What do I install to get software-sources-gtk back?  It seems to be gone.

[21:25] <Walkbo> How can I get Amarok to give its song information to Pidgin in Gnome? It works for Exaile, so I figure it may be a package I'm missing that lets Amarok "talk" to other programs.
[21:25] <karsten> suleyman: I don't think you can nohup a running process.  As I said, screen is really the solution you want.
[21:25] <Aireas> same here, sorry
[21:25] <erUSUL> !bugs | Aireas Report it as akernel bug
[21:25] <arrrghhh> karsten, ha, thanks.  i've been very careful about backing up configs to the "cloud" - just in case.
[21:25] <FloodBot1> Aireas: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:25] <djeday> smb advise me how to update machine through isa proxy with ntml auth
[21:25] <karsten> Walkbo: There's a plugin for that somewhere.
[21:25] <karsten> Walkbo: Might ask on #kde
[21:25] <suleyman> karsten thx
[21:26] <Toznoshio> Hi community, is there a picture viewer for Linux that can properly display animated GIFs? I tried with both the built-in "Eye of Gnome" and with gpicview, but they both only show the first frame and stop there. The only way I can display animated GIFs right now is with Firefox. Any ideas?
[21:26] <Iradieh> arrrghhh: chown -r doesnt work
[21:26] <arrrghhh> Iradieh, -R
[21:26] <Iradieh> arrrghhh: chown -R doesn't worjk
[21:26] <karsten> suleyman: ... or I could be wrong:  http://www.usenet-forums.com/linux-general/89848-nohup-running-process.html
[21:26] <djeday> chown /path -R
[21:26] <djeday> =)
[21:26] <arrrghhh> Iradieh, it does, you're command is wrong then.
[21:26] <karsten> suleyman: Hrm.  Maybe "disown":  http://www.goldfisch.at/knowledge/347
[21:26] <Sajuta> Walkbo: There are actually a few plugins. apt-cache search for amarok should return some that work with it.
[21:27] <karsten> suleyman: That's a bash builtin.  'help disown'
[21:27] <Iradieh> arrrghhh: okay sorry, I have to have user there
[21:27] <djeday> anybody know how to pass ntml auth in wget ?
[21:27] <Frijolie> karsten: thanks again, I'll investigate rsync. You're like the Linux guru you're helping like 15 people at a time. I'm envious
[21:27] <karsten> Frijolie: Well, it doesn't pay the bills ;-)
[21:27] <anyo> how would i give a user r/w rights to /var/log/gnump3d/access.log
[21:27] <karsten> Frijolie: ... but it keeps me off the streets.
[21:28] <jagiil> hi (ubuntu 8.04) i uninstalled by mistake some of nvidia files or sthg now hardware driver dt detect nvidia anymore and i'm working on low resolution plz help
[21:28] <Walkbo> Sajuta: I have the music tracker plugin for pidgin that pulls Exaile's status but not Amarok's. I also have the Amarok Pidgin script.
[21:28] <Dyresen> Compiz makes my terminal almost unusable. Disabeling loose bindings helps as a work around, but then it's actually better running metacity because of performance. Does anybody know if there is a fix for this comming?
[21:28] <suleyman> karsten: thx again, clearly you are better googler than I am :-)
[21:28] <Frijolie> karsten: you're not a linux system admin or something? how long you been using?
[21:28] <karsten> suleyman: It's a good question, one I usually assume the answer to is "no".
[21:28] <karsten> Frijolie: 20+ Unix, 10+ Linux, mostly Debian
[21:29] <Walkbo> I figure it's an issue with Amarok "talking" to other apps as it is out of its normal environment?
[21:29] <gangsterlicious> SunOS admlim1 5.9 Generic_117171-07 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100
[21:29] <gangsterlicious> ooops, wrong window
[21:29] <Sajuta> Walkbo: If you go in to configure the plugin (should be Tools> Plugins) select MusicTracker and click Configure, is it set to auto-detect? Amarok? Exaile?
[21:30] <jamiejackson> i just upgraded to intrepid the other day, and it didn't retain my NetworkManager vpnc (cisco vpn) settings. the vpnc configuration dialog has changed a bit, and i'm wondering if someone can help me troubleshoot my current failure to connect. http://pastebin.com/d5700f3dd
[21:30] <Lasivian> Hi, i'm trying to figure out which version of freeciv to install, sdl, gtk+ or Xaw3D, google seems to have lots of technical specs on this stuff, but no useful lamens data
[21:30] <BULLE_> what type of config stuff goes into /etc/defaults and what goes into the specific dirs or files in etc for each service ?
[21:30] <onexused> How do I get back the program software-sources-gtk?  It won't start from the terminal or menu and locate software-sources-gtk shows nothing.
[21:30] <BULLE_> seems i cant find any description of what type of files are suppopsed to go into /etc/Defaults, is it options for the init scripts ?
[21:30] <hsn> hey guys, i cant import my firefox search plugins from windows -> ubuntu. it says permission denied. can someone help me out?
[21:30] <Walkbo> Sajuta: Yeah, I've got it set for Amarok.
[21:31] <Frijolie> karsten: whoa! Well I've been Linux exclusive now for 2 years and I've never looked back. I'm still a noob. Any advice?
[21:31] <karsten> Lasivian: None of the above if you value your sanity.  gtk+ in general (it's GNOME-ish)
[21:31] <karsten> Frijolie: Keep on keepin' on.
[21:31] <LjL> onexused: sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop   will reinstall anything you might have lost from the original ubuntu package set
[21:31] <benno2> hi, any idea how I can enable cupsd listening on lpr port 515 on ubuntu (8.04) so that I can print to that machine from another machine using the lpr -H hostname cmd ?
[21:31] <onexused> LjL: Thanks.
[21:31] <Frijolie> karsten: marry the CLI?
[21:31] <rabe> install tar.gz.......... sry - i still do not know exactly how to install tar.gz packages - could anyone tell me?
[21:31] <karsten> Frijolie: Given my experience, it beats marrying the green-card scammer....
[21:31] <BULLE_> rabe: jsut dont
[21:31] <Lasivian> karsten: well, those are the three client options
[21:32] <Sajuta> Walkbo: Have you restarted each of the programs? Sometimes that helps them pair. Hmm... I'm using that plugin with Audacious myself.
[21:32] <rabe> ?
[21:32] <BULLE_> rabe: use debs instead
[21:32] <Frijolie> karsten: hehe...whoa TMI.
[21:32] <rabe> no i have to compile it i think
[21:32] <onexused> LjL: When I give that command, it asks to remove 68 packages, some of which I definately want.  What do I do about that?
[21:32] <LjL> rabe: a .tar.gz file is merely a compressed archive, much like a .zip file. how you "install" it depends on what's in it. but still, you usually install software on Ubuntu using APT, not random files downloaded from the net. what are you trying to install?
[21:32] <Sajuta> Walkbo: Also, are you sure it's not working? Add yourself to your own buddy list to check. It doesn't -look- like it's changing to you, only on the outbound level.
[21:33] <robacarp> does anyone happen to know if there is a way to add/remove shares from a samba server without restarting the daemon?
[21:33] <karsten> Frijolie: ... yeah, love the CLI.  I got a ton of mileage from "Linux in a Nutshell", "UNIX Power Tools", and "Running Linux".  The Linux Documentation Project (http://www.tldp.org/) rocks.  install dwww and as many docs packages (Ubuntu has tons) as you can and browse in your spare time.  Learn shell, a database, Perl/Python, and basic services admin (mail, web, dns, samba).
[21:33] <LjL> onexused: that is weird. are you on intrepid? are you on GNOME, KDE or something else? are you using any third-party repositories?
[21:33] <BULLE_> rabe: then you will not get any automatic updates, and you might very well get collisions with other ubuntu software and other wierd problems
[21:33] <Frijolie> karsten: green-card scammer? is that a  peripheral?
[21:33] <karsten> Frijolie: /lastlog it and save to a file
[21:33] <rabe> http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tvbrowser/tvbrowser-2.7.1.tar.gz
[21:33] <karsten> Frijolie: No, it was an attractive danish woman with a few too  many secrets.
[21:33] <BULLE_> rabe: i bet there is a readme file in there
[21:33] <BULLE_> rabe: just realise you can easily fuckup your box that way
[21:33] <karsten> Frijolie: http://allium.zgp.org/pipermail/linux-elitists/2008-October/012566.html
[21:33] <rabe> could be - second...
[21:34] <rabe> i know...
[21:34] <rabe> but i know this program
[21:34] <karsten> Frijolie: punchline in the last paragraph, but read the first 3 or so first.
[21:34] <gigel2006> Does anyone know how can you use injectin with ath9k ?
[21:34] <jimcooncat> rabe, you may want to use checkinstall, it will allow you to uninstall afterwards
[21:34] <BULLE_> rabe: doesnt mean that it will work well in ubuntu, and not cause problems
[21:34] <BULLE_> checkinstall is ag reat piece of advice
[21:35] <rabe> its an java application
[21:35] <BULLE_> use taht as jimcooncat said
[21:35] <rabe> how to use?
[21:35] <BULLE_> rabe: if it is a java application, there should be no need to install it
[21:35] <onexused> LjL: I'm using 8.04, whatever that's called.  I'm only using repos that I could check in the software sources program, plus ubuntu alternate install discs I downloaded from ubuntu.com.  I'm using gnome, but I should have KDE installed still.  A lot of the stuff is from KDE, but there are other things like cups and openoffice.org that don't belong to either.
[21:35] <onexused> LjL: in the remove list, I mean.
[21:35] <ltghesp> dammit alternate install installed lilo and now I get a grub error and cant boot
[21:35] <Walkbo> Sajuta: Ok, tried restarting them and adding myself. No dice... Also, I know it was working with Exaile because you can see the status message at the bottom of the Pidgin window. There's just nothing special when using Amarok.
[21:35] <jagiil>  hi (ubuntu 8.04) urgent plz help i uninstalled by mistake some of nvidia files or sthg now hardware driver dt detect nvidia anymore and i'm working on low resolution plz help
[21:35] <XLV> has anyone ever tried an upgrade from 32bit to 64bit, without reformat? i am trying to do so going from 32bit 8.04 to 64bit 8.10.. installer from within 8.04 doesnt start
[21:35] <LjL> onexused: ok, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file please
[21:36] <jimcooncat> rabe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall
[21:36] <hsn> hey guys, i cant import my firefox search plugins from windows -> ubuntu. it says permission denied. can someone help me out?
[21:36] <karsten> Frijolie: /join ##debian-offtopic if you want the low-down on that.
[21:36] <rabe> ok i'll try...
[21:36] <Pirate_Hunter> !media
[21:36] <Sajuta> Walkbo: Mine doesn't change at the bottom, I only know because I'm on my own list.
[21:36] <BULLE_> XLV: most likely because the 8.10 installer is compiled in a 64 bit enviroment
[21:36] <pickknic> !codecs
[21:36] <Sajuta> Walkbo: Huh. Latest version of the plugin?
[21:36] <karsten> XLV: Not Supported.
[21:37] <karsten> XLV: AFAIK.  You're going to have a lot of incompatibilities there.  I'd strongly suggest a from-scratch reinstall unless you hear otherwise.
[21:37] <hsn> hey guys, i cant import my firefox search plugins from windows -> ubuntu. it says permission denied. can someone help me out?
[21:37] <XLV> karsten, yeah, i suppose so..
[21:37] <karsten> !tell hsn about repeat
[21:38] <XLV> anyhow, off to it ;-)
[21:38] <karsten> hsn: Importing how?  What errors?
[21:38] <Pirate_Hunter> !codecs
[21:38] <hsn> karsten: hey. i just try to copy it to the ff searchplugins folder
[21:38] <karsten> XLV: Google suggests no at Ubuntu forums.
[21:39] <karsten> hsn: copy how?
[21:39] <karsten> hsn: cli?  GUI?  What command?  What error?  Where do you get error messages?
[21:39] <Walkbo> Sajuta: I don't see anything on my name when I added myself. My plugin version is 0.4.1. Could this be an issue with Amarok not being able to "talk" to other apps because it's running in Gnome?
[21:39] <karsten> hsn: check ownership/perms.
[21:39] <hsn> karsten: i made a copy of the searchplugins folder from windows and pasted them on ubuntu desktop. i use the gui to copy paste but it doesn't work. i think the folder is "locked"
[21:39] <d3vil__> hi alls
[21:39] <DefamedPrawn> good moaning
[21:40] <d3vil__> i need help?
[21:40] <hsn> karsten: as i'm really new to ubuntu i dont know how to unlock the folder
[21:40] <Frijolie> karsten: dude, you pwned!
[21:40] <howitzermod> hi
[21:40] <howitzermod> new but ubuntu pwns
[21:40] <karsten> hsn: Drop to cli.  ls -lR <dir> and see if you own it.  Not sure if windows/linux plugins are compatible.  /join #firefox.
[21:40] <karsten> Frijolie: PM?
[21:40] <onexused> LjL: http://rafb.net/p/OXaX3E18.html  I don't know why there would be stuff in there for Intrepid, except I tried to do an upgrade to it a couple times over the Internet.
[21:40] <d3vil__> i need a putty  ...iam using ubuntu 8.10
[21:41] <d3vil__> i can find putty
[21:41] <robacarp> karsten: most FF plugins are java-scripted and are cross platform
[21:41] <pickknic> What's the standard way to do RAIDs in 8.10? So many conflicting articles on the net - LVM? mdadm? dmadm?  (NOTE - I don't want to *install* ubuntu to a RAID. Ubuntu is already installed, I want to RAID up disks other than the one with ubuntu installed on it) (NOTE - "!raid" doesnt provide any helpful info)
[21:41] <Sajuta> Walkbo: I'm running 0.4.8 . Maybe getting the latest will help? I've also noticed that keeping pidgin closed during the process helps it (I had it not work the first time and someone suggested that).
[21:41] <karsten> robacarp: OK.
[21:41] <Frijolie> karsten: sure
[21:41] <karsten> hsn: I suspect ownership/perms issues.   #firefox should help
[21:42] <d3vil__> Frijolie can u helo me i need putty for ubuntu 8.10
[21:42] <onexused> LjL: I commented out the stuff for Interpid and uncommented the other repos, and I don't get it asking to remove all those programs anymore, but I don't know if that's what I was supposed to do.
[21:42] <Walkbo> Sajuta: Alrighty, I'll go fetch 0.4.8 and see how it works. Thanks for your help! I'll let you know how it goes
[21:42] <Sajuta> Walkbo: Glad to at least try to help. =)

[21:43] <adi_> is there any music player with equalizer for ubuntu interpid?

[21:46] <pickknic> What's the standard way to do RAIDs in 8.10? So many conflicting articles on the net - LVM? mdadm? dmadm?  (NOTE - I don't want to *install* ubuntu to a RAID. Ubuntu is already installed, I want to RAID up disks other than the one with ubuntu installed on it) (NOTE - "!raid" doesnt provide any helpful info)
[21:46] <erUSUL> pickknic: use software raid with mdadm
[21:46] <hubar> Can anyone help with the problem in here? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=972222

[21:47] <Skry^> adi_, amaroks still the best though
[21:47] <grizzancs> !help > grizzancs
[21:47] <adi_> rhythmbox is just those apps that you get for free on windows
[21:47] <H4nta> my xorg.conf doesnt work after upgrade. " sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" only changes my keyboard settings. halp!
[21:48] <ecclesiastes> Help! I can't stop the wrong device driver from loading! blacklist failed.
[21:48] <adi_> yes amarok is still the best but I dont wont kde packages on my gnome
[21:48] <jarco> whats the command for changing the gnome menus again?
[21:48] <fonzarelli> adi_: banshee is now as good as amarok, imho
[21:48] <onexused> jarco: alacarte
[21:48] <adi_> the solution is to make an equalizer for totem
[21:48] <jamiejackson> how do i downgrade to the hardy version of networkmanager?
[21:49] <jarco> thx thats it :D
[21:49] <ArShAm> hi all
[21:49] <jarco> onexused, thx
[21:49] <adi_> so anyone can play audio and video equalized in one app
[21:49] <Falstaf> I have video problems ... there are some applications that cause lines on my screen ...
[21:49] <H4nta> why does "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" only change my keyboard settings?
[21:49] <Ursinha> hi, i'd like to install mtd-utils on intrepid thru apt but its page on launchpad says it had failed to build for i386
[21:50] <hubar> what service should I restart to force font reload its hinting configuration???
[21:50] <ArShAm> I want to transfer my current installed ubuntu to usb stick (partly, not the whole thing) and I want to make it bootable, how can I do that?
[21:50] <pickknic> H4nta: possibly because as far as that command can tell, that's the only thing wrong with your config.  Try deleting (or better yet, renaming) xorg.conf, then run the sudo line again
[21:50] <Ursinha> what am I supposed to do about it, file a bug?
[21:51] <n8tuser> ArShAm-> what is on your current install that you require transferring to the usb?
[21:51] <ecclesiastes> ArShAm: are you trying to back up or have a bootable USB stick?
[21:51] <jarco> is there an apt-get command to update openoffice to the latest version or at least 3.0 :p
[21:51] <ArShAm> not a back up , I want to travel for a while , and I cannot bring my computer there
[21:51] <hubar> jarco: You need to have a different repository.
[21:52] <ArShAm> but I need it, data, and everything which needs to run a complete distro
[21:52] <hubar> jarco: the default rep doesn't have OO 3.0.
[21:52] <comrademikhail> anyone having problems with the kernel update last night?? my sound is broken since
[21:52] <Doctor_N1ck> :D
[21:52] <ArShAm> ecclesiastes: I mean the bootable
[21:52] <ecclesiastes> ArShAm: you can make a bootable stick but it's only going to work on PCs that will boot from a USB drive.
[21:53] <jarco> hubar,  is there a website or something where i can find the approximate date that it will appear in the normal repos?
[21:53] <neal_> i figured out what was wrong with my monitor configuration apparently 2048x2048 is the largest virtual desktop size supported with 3d acceleration
[21:53] <neal_> DRI support
[21:53] <ArShAm> ecclesiastes: I know what are you talking about , and its ok
[21:53] <H4nta> pickknic: i did as you said and that changes nothing. it only allows me to change only the framebuffer and keyboard settings.
[21:53] <daszorz> i love ubuntu :)
[21:53] <karsten> neal_: I suspected something like that.
[21:53] <jaysonsantos> !midi
[21:53] <neal_> thanks for your help tho
[21:53] <XLV> ArShAm, copy the whole partition, and using vmware, make it a virtual drive of a vm.. then add vmware player in the usb stick, along with the whole virtual drive. on every pc, all you'll have to do is install vmware player, then load the vm and use it
[21:53] <nikolam> comrademikhail, What version of ubuntu you use?
[21:53] <flakeparadigm> Hello
[21:53] <joaopinto> comrademikhail, I am having the same issue on my laptop :\
[21:53] <eddVRS> Hi, I've just ran an update and rebooted, but am geting a blank screen after login- anyideas?
[21:53] <comrademikhail> nikolam: 8.10
[21:54] <onexused> I'm trying to do an upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 with a CD I downloaded from ubuntu.com.  The upgrade says it wants to uninstall 81 things, most of which I want.  How can I get it not to?
[21:54] <comrademikhail> joaopinto: what kinda laptop? i have a dell studiothat's doing it
[21:54] <joaopinto> comrademikhail, I have a ThinkPad T60
[21:54] <Havsalt> Hello everybody. I haaaaaaaave a problem... Until yesterday I was running twinview with nvidia (8800gts) but it died, so I had to put in a ATI card. But my extended desktop, which is my lcd-tv won't go higher then my lcd-screens resolution. With nvidia i could run fullhd on the tv, as I was using the lcds default resolution just to work on..anyone here that knows what im talking about?
[21:54] <ArShAm> XLV: I don't have vm and I have a slow connection, can I just copy the root without home, sys, proc ?
[21:54] <hubar> jarco: hold on plz
[21:54] <ecclesiastes> ArShAm: I haven't any experience with a USB stick, BUT you should be able to run the installer with the stick as the target.
[21:54] <gigel2006> How can you view .doc files in ubuntu?
[21:54] <jarco> k hubar
[21:54] <nikolam> joakim, someone is joking with us with those kernel updates. I hat trouble with adsl modem and stability. They are gone after update of and update..
[21:54] <neal_> it's too bad i was kind of liking the 1680x1050 + 1600x1200, that the last version of ubuntu supported
[21:55] <nikolam> sorry joaopinto
[21:55] <eddVRS> gigel2006: i think Open office can handle *.DOCs
[21:55] <joaopinto> comrademikhail, broken as in, no sound
[21:55] <ArShAm> ecclesiastes: in that way, I am not transfering my current stuff
[21:55] <hubar> jarco: try this # deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main #OpenOffice
[21:55] <comrademikhail> joaopinto: i mean what kinda laptop
 where can I get it ?
[21:55] <pickknic> H4nta: my xorg.conf says to use a "-phigh" option. I'm not sure what it does, but does running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" work?
[21:55] <ng0n> anyone know where ms-sys is located - to dl and install in Ubuntu ?
[21:55] <joaopinto> nikolam, these days I always pray when I see a kernel upgrade :D
[21:55] <nikolam> comrademikhail, I am still on 8.04 because of that kind of stuff
[21:55] <XLV> ArShAm, use dd to copy the partition to a file.. then get vmware.. just copying root wont do it
[21:55] <comrademikhail> joaopinto: i'm having the issue on a dell studio 15 with an hda-intel card
[21:55] <hubar> jarco: you know what to do with a new repository right?
[21:56] <hubar> what service should I restart to force font reload its hinting configuration???
[21:56] <platius> jarco; http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml  but it could be risky
[21:56] <XLV> !vm
[21:56] <comrademikhail> i just recompiled alsa to no avail
[21:56] <joaopinto> comrademikhail, I believe it's the same chipset
[21:56] <jarco> yes hubar  i know
[21:56] <comrademikhail> it was working last night before i went to bed
[21:56] <eddVRS> gigel2006: should already be installed, have a look under applications>office
[21:56] <nikolam> joaopinto, That `s not what the things should work..
[21:56] <jarco> thx platius
[21:56] <jarco> i gonna read some more about it before i try it
[21:56] <joaopinto> the odd is that I have reinstalled the previous kernel, and I still have no sound
[21:56] <ecclesiastes> ArShAm: No. the stick has to be bootable first ..try XLV's suggestion.
[21:56] <hubar> jarco: nice, then try that rep, I did , I have OO3 on my intrepid now. :)
[21:56] <nikolam> joaopinto, Does that updated things get tested?
[21:56] <flakeparadigm> I have had this problem many times but though not too much about it. I just restart my computer and all is fine. But it is getting annoying. When I'm not on my computer for a while (about maybe 6 hours) it will not runn any commands when I get back on. every command says "bash: (path to command): Input/output error" Anyone know whats going on?
[21:56] <jarco> :)
[21:56] <jarco> kewl
[21:57] <ArShAm> XLV: ok , so , dd to make an iso from root, and what to do with vmware again?
[21:57] <platius> jarco; it is working for me, but I have not used it much.
[21:57] <rabe> what is wrong with my machine???? every time i close my notebook ubuntu hangs up instead of switching into suspend
[21:57] <rabe> any ideas?
[21:57] <ecclesiastes> Help! I can't stop the wrong device driver from loading! blacklist failed.
 yes thank you, what about xvid, avi, mp3 can I play that as well ?
[21:57] <nikolam> joaopinto, Thats nothing. on 8.10 by default, floppy disks don`t work,..
[21:57] <jarco> yeah platius  i need the multi page editing functions :p
[21:57] <comrademikhail> i have been struggling with sound for the past week
[21:57] <Molakay> what do i miss "This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system
[21:57] <Molakay> that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification.
[21:57] <Molakay> " .. tell me what to write in term
[21:57] <XLV> ArShAm, i feel you have too little knowledge and you'll end up screwing your existing ubuntu installation
[21:58] <comrademikhail> finally got it runnign great this week and they break it
[21:58] <comrademikhail> great.
[21:58] <patmaddox> so I'm sure this is probably holy war stuff...but I'm just installing ubuntu for the first time, which window manager do I want to use? :)
[21:58] <Walkbo> Sajuta: Ok, after installing tons of stuff to get the plugin to compile it failed, but.... I happened to right-click the Pidgin icon in the tray and checked toggle status changing in the musictracker menu and voila...
[21:58] <H4nta> pickknic: i did as you said and that only creates a blank xorg.conf
[21:58] <ArShAm> XLV: you bet I am!
[21:58] <ng0n> how do i force 'defrag' in ubuntu ?
[21:58] <rabe> does anyone know why ubuntu hangs up when i close my notebook??
[21:58] <LF|Irssi_> i fixed my sound by uninstalling the PulseAudio server, and enabling just the ALSA or whatever its called (for 8.10 that is)
[21:58] <jarco> ngon it isnt needed
[21:58] <XLV> ArShAm, copy the whole partition, using dd, to a file. using vmware, make that file a virtual drive of a vm.. then add vmware player in the usb stick, along with the whole virtual drive. on every pc, all you'll have to do is install vmware player, then load the vm and use it
[21:58] <rebel_kid> how can i get information such as size in a terminal
[21:58] <Sajuta> Walkbo: Ouch! Painful... Accidental working is nice, sometimes, though. =)
[21:59] <pickknic> H4nta: sorry mate, I can't really help then
[21:59] <ecclesiastes> patmaddox: whichever one the installer gives you .. for now.
[21:59] <rebel_kid> .. on a file*
[21:59] <ng0n> jarco:  I'm showing NTFS drives 'open' that aren't open.
[21:59] <Walkbo> Sajuta: I'm just a little embarrassed, but I'm glad the "issue" was resolved. Sorry to waste your time. Thanks again for your help though!
[21:59] <ArShAm> XLV: thank you
[21:59] <andrews> I am having trouble getting a mic to record on Ubuntu 8.10 I had it working in 7.10 but can't seem to get it to work now, I have a Sound Blaster I don't remember what model
[21:59] <evilspawn4> does anyone know if there is a channel for thunderbird?
[21:59] <ljuwaidah> does anybody have any idea why my "save session" isn't working?
[21:59] <nikolam> ng0n, you mostly don`t need to defra your disks just don fill them up to 95 percent and so..
[21:59] <Sajuta> Walkbo: No problem. Why did you compile, though? I nabbed it from the repos.
[21:59] <XLV> ArShAm, theres even a free vm program, instead of vmware http://www.virtualbox.org/
[21:59] <ng0n> nikolam. understood.
[21:59] <jarco> i dunno a solution ng0n  i just kniow it doesnt need to be defragmented :p i does it by itself every once in a while
[21:59] <XLV> ArShAm, use that
[22:00] <ArShAm> XLV: virtualbox does not have a usb support
[22:00] <ng0n> jarco.  right o.   after 25 mounts.
[22:00] <ng0n> but i can't mount.. to build the count.
[22:00] <nikolam> andrews, use lspci to determine you card model
[22:00] <timecist> virtualbox blows
[22:00] <jarco> something like that
[22:00] <Walkbo> Sajuta: I thought that's where I got mine, so I figured the latest in repos were 0.4.1
[22:00] <ljuwaidah> uh, php, later

[22:00] <Havsalt> Hello everybody. I haaaaaaaave a problem... Until yesterday I was running twinview with nvidia (8800gts) but it died, so I had to put in a ATI card. But my extended desktop, which is my lcd-tv won't go higher then my lcd-screens resolution. With nvidia i could run fullhd on the tv, as I was using the lcds default resolution just to work on..anyone here that knows what im talking about?
[22:00] <Walkbo> Sajuta: It's up to .4.11 on the site if you want to check it out
[22:00] <Sajuta> Walkbo: Hardy or Intrepid? Intrepid has the newer.
[22:00] <XLV> ArShAm, yeah, but know that vmware isnt free, only the player is.. so you cant create the initial vm to use with player afterwards
[22:00] <ng0n> super grub wrecked me.
[22:01] <ecclesiastes> XLV: dd will copy the mbr?
[22:01] <rabe> any ideas?
[22:01] <rabe> does anyone know why ubuntu hangs up when i close my notebook??
[22:01] <timecist> anyone who wonders about the future of Sun can look at virtualbox and see how low their standards have gotten
[22:01] <ArShAm> ok , thanks
[22:01] <ArShAm> bye
[22:01] <ecclesiastes> Help! I can't stop the wrong device driver from loading! blacklist failed.

[22:01] <andrews>  nikolam: Creative Labs SB Audigy LS
[22:02] <XLV> ecclesiastes, he wont boot the partition per se, he will load it on a vm... maybe it''ll need some bootblock repairing
[22:02] <Walkbo> Sajuta: wait, I typed my own name there...
[22:02] <Sajuta> Walkbo: I haven't compiled in a long while. I think I became dependent on debs.
[22:02] <Sajuta> LOL
[22:02] <KDB9000> how do I move the applets in my panel that don't have the move option when you right click (ie. Network Manager, Bluetooth, and Battery)?
[22:02] <Sajuta> Walkbo: I saw. ;)
[22:02] <LjL> timecist: this has nothing to do with Ubuntu, and especially not Ubuntu support. please stay on topic.
[22:02] <cliechti> any one else with connection problems to security.ubuntu.com?
[22:02] <Sajuta> KDB9000: The separator is the key to it. Unlock it and drag.
[22:02] <Walkbo> Sajuta: Anyway, I'm not too worried about it as long as it works. Now to get to remove all that junk I installed to compile. Thanks again!
[22:02] <XLV> ecclesiastes, but yeah, dd copies also the mbr, or partition's boot record etc
[22:03] <Sajuta> Walkbo: Welcome!

[22:05] <hubar> what service should I restart to force font reload its hinting configuration???
[22:05] <comrademikhail> so i uninstalled pulseaudio and now sound works
[22:05] <LF|Irssi_> comrademikhail: that's what i did :)
[22:05] <nikolam> andrews, http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&client=mozilla&rls=org.debian%3Aen-US%3Aunofficial&q=Creative+Labs+SB+Audigy+LS+site%3A.ubuntuforums.org&btnG=Search
[22:05] <comrademikhail> kinda sucks though.. i kinda like having multiple programs able to use the soudn at once
[22:05] <LF|Irssi_> yeah
[22:06] <LF|Irssi_> hopefully there will be a fix soon
[22:06] <joaopinto> comrademikhail, found your issue ?
[22:06] <strider_> Wait until they finally get the pulseaudio configuration right.
[22:06] <philippe_> eddVRS, take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=346044
[22:06] <comrademikhail> joaopinto: yeah.. i didn't actually remove pulseaudio.. i nstead prevented alsa from forwarding to it by removing the relevent entries in /etc/asound.conf
[22:06] <ecclesiastes> eddVRS: how blank? empty desktop or blank screen?
[22:06] <cliechti> nikolam: thanks for trying. but here it doesn't work. the connection times out (server ip is <IP_ADDRESS>)
[22:07] <comrademikhail> joaopinto: because if i removed it, that broke the whole installation, not even allowing me to log in.. found that out hte hard way
[22:07] <joaopinto> comrademikhail, you disabled pulseaudio ?
[22:07] <eddVRS> ecclesiastes: it's a blank screen, but has my mouse cursor on.
[22:07] <comrademikhail> joaopinto : yeah
[22:07] <eddVRS> philippe_: thanks I'll have a look
[22:07] <comrademikhail> joapinto: things are still not working right, hoever
[22:07] <ecclesiastes> eddVRS: is the cursor an arrow or an X?
[22:07] <comrademikhail> *however
[22:07] <eddVRS> arrow
[22:07] <nikolam> cliechti, same ip here. i am from europe
[22:08] <joaopinto> erm, the recent kernel upgrade was supposed to be a security fix only, I don't understand how did it mess up with the sound
[22:08] <cliechti> nikolam: hm, me too. maybe my ISP..
[22:08] <joaopinto> comrademikhail, we need to file a bug report (if it's not filed yet)
[22:09] <joaopinto> I am not on my laptop right now
[22:09] <RickZilla> Does it usually take ubuntu a few days to pick up the latest GIMP release?  When .deb are available use this
[22:10] <comrademikhail> *ridiculous.. nothing's working
[22:10] <RickZilla> You asked why it hung up...I just said because it's done with the phone call :-)
[22:10] <rabe> this is wrong
[22:10] <RickZilla> philippe_:  Thanks
[22:10] <eddVRS> ecclesiastes: It's an arrow. I did an upgrade, and rebooted which resulted in this. I wonder if some packages are missing
[22:10] <rabe> it never worked

[22:17] <noupdateplease> joaopinto, oh, now I can see I do not have the latest one. But shouldn't this be shown in the update window? Anyways, do I update it even with the problem out there?
[22:17] <ecclesiastes> gigel2006: If you know which ones you need, yeah.
[22:17] <joaopinto> noupdateplease, it's your choice, on my laptop sound is not working now :P
 I've been searching forever for ath9k injection drivers
[22:18] <noupdateplease> noupdateplease, I see. What's your sound card, btw? Is it Intel?
[22:18] <nikolam> shameless, Try to consult application database and see if it is supported under wine: http://appdb.winehq.org/
[22:18] <noupdateplease> joaopinto, I see. What's your sound card, btw? Is it Intel?
[22:18] <joaopinto> noupdateplease, yes
[22:18] <joaopinto> noupdateplease, but my desktop is also intel hda, and is working fine, so it only affects a specific model
[22:19] <noupdateplease> joaopinto, not good :x I better off wait for the next update, I suppose
[22:19] <eddVRS> ecclesiastes: good work, thanks. I'm using elinks to read it, so its a bit tough...
[22:19] <noupdateplease> joaopinto, I see. How can I check if mine is affected?
[22:19] <ecclesiastes> gigel2006: Sorry. you can specify loading them in /proc/modules.
[22:19] <joaopinto> noupdateplease, no idea :|
[22:20] <ecclesiastes> eddVRS: He installs KDE, but you should be able to install Gnome just as well.

[22:22] <Stele> Hi everyone
[22:22] <Tundrayeti311> ecclesiastes: I apologize, i didn't catch the 1st part of the conversation... for configuring whether a module loads or not, /etc/modules, /proc/modules is basicly the same as lsmod, which will give you the currently loaded modules
[22:23] <alec> it gets detected and there is an error message that says it cant mount volume
[22:23] <benno2> hi, any idea how I can enable cupsd listening on lpr port 515 on ubuntu (8.04) so that I can print to that machine from another machine using the lpr -H hostname cmd ?

[22:24] <joaopinto> ivantis, you question is not really support related, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:24] <zetharx> is there a good reason not to update from hardy?
[22:24] <ivantis> well it just like logged me out
[22:25] <joaopinto> ivantis, ok, that's a problem, not the uptime :P
[22:25] <comrademikhail> okay, so by some form of jypsy magic, i got my sound to work and multiple program can use it
[22:25] <ivantis> it went to the tty1
[22:25] <ecclesiastes> tundrayeti311: still you're correct ..
[22:25] <ivantis> then to the login screen
[22:25] <ryanakca> For encrypting a home dir, should I use TrueCrypt, dmcrypt or LUKS? Why?

[22:26] <comrademikhail> joaopinto: to be honest.. i have no idea.. i still have pulseaudio installed because without it it wouldn't let me log in because it uninstalled ubuntu-desktop.. i removed the entried from /etc/asound.conf that redirected the sound to pulseaudio and set everything back to use alsa
[22:26] <cads_> I upgraded to 8.10 but this broke my video in gnome. When I log in, the windows manager keeps crashing and restarting, causing the windows and panels to flash in an out of existence. Some sections from my Xorg.log highlighting the problem are here http://pastie.org/308302, and this is a complete listing http://pastie.org/308311 . I'd appreciate and help/guidance/direction you guys could give me in this problem.
[22:26] <cads_> what do you guys think?
[22:26] <nyvhax> someone knows how can i chmod a folder ?
[22:26] <ecclesiastes> gigel2006: My err: /etc/modules

[22:26] <comrademikhail> nyvhax : chmod -R
[22:26] <nyvhax> i want it in 777 and by the way, all the folders which will be create in this folder will have the chmod 777 too
[22:27] <noupdateplease> nyvhax, chmod -R user:group /path/to/folder
[22:27] <tyler_> can someone help me get my sound working?  worked fine in 8.04, modules don't even appear to be loaded...

It may also crash your xserver, just a word of warning: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443407

[22:27] <sdfvdvf> Im running Ubuntu(and have tried other distros) on vmware on windows vista. i find it to be quite slow and buggy. slow i can see since it runs on vmware and with relatively little ram. but it seems it is hard to get it to work corrctly and it deos some unpredictable things. is a proper install much better? are there any problems with installing ona vista-computer? like will winows give me trouble when i want to erase it?
[22:27] <nyvhax> comrademikhail, not just the main folder, but all the folders which are in the main folder
[22:27] <noupdateplease> oops, nyvhax, chmod -R perm /path/to/folder
[22:27] <ecclesiastes> Help! I can't stop the wrong device driver from loading! blacklist failed.
[22:27] <comrademikhail> joapinto: a lot of experimenting
[22:28] <noupdateplease> nyvhax, chmod -R 777 /path/to/folder will do the trick
[22:28] <comrademikhail> nyvhax: chmod -R folder/*
[22:28] <ivantis> does anyone have an explanation?
[22:28] <ivantis> it just logged me out
[22:28] <Tundrayeti311> ecclesiastes: Did u add the module to /etc/module.d/blacklist ?
[22:28] <ivantis> but it has been up for 42 days

[22:38] <meizbak> Everytime I do apt-get update I get a error saying a GPG key can't be trusted or something like that. It deeply annoys me. Is there a way to fix this, for gods sake?
[22:38] <stele> demetros: I'm not sure it'll ever run fine with Wine...
[22:38] <erUSUL> !gpgerror
[22:38] <Lytle> i can mount my windows partition but I can not write to it
[22:38] <unop> Neurologic_, are you sure you are using the RDP protocol with the client (i'm not sure how the default ubuntu client works as i don't run gnome) - alternatives are perhaps tsclient and grdesktop
[22:38] <erUSUL> !gpg
[22:38] <harisund> Any suggestions? Please don't tell me Ubuntu is the new OS X ... :(
[22:38] <stele> meizbak: Try adding the GPG key for the repository
[22:38] <newbuntu> LF|Irssi_: was it a fresh intrepid install
[22:38] <aura> #avengia
[22:39] <demetros> Oh! I also needed help with Virtual Drives... how do i do that?
[22:39] <meizbak> stele, yeah, the problem is that I don't know where the key is...
[22:39] <Lytle> hello? is anyone gonna help me?
[22:39] <meizbak> stele, there's no info about that
[22:39] <stele> Which repository is the one with the gpg error?
[22:39] <Neurologic_> neurologic, I am sure it's using RDP, it says that this program (On add/remove programs) only uses VNC, so I'm looking for another, tsclient?
[22:39] <meizbak> stele, which repo is using it or anything like that
[22:39] <meizbak> stele, I wish it told me!
[22:39] <shigutso> Why nm-connection-editor isn't saving my settings in Ubuntu 8.10?
[22:39] <Alrekr> Hi there. My Ubuntu (just updated from 8.04 LTS AMD64 to 8.10 through Update Manager) is looking weird. Like somebody spilled a bowl of 70's over my screen. The boot screen is okay, but the normal screen is really screwed up :(

[22:40] <Lytle> i still need help writeing to windows partition from linux
[22:40] <edmont> hi
[22:40] <vonkleist> demetros, what do you mean with Virtual Drives?
[22:40] <cllaudyu> hello
[22:40] <newbuntu> demetros: fate stay night should work, if u have WINE in stalled
[22:40] <Stele> Lytle: Try with the new ntfs driver... It comes with Intrepid
[22:41] <demetros> Like .iso's
[22:41] <Lytle> where do i get that?
[22:41] <Stele> !ntfs | Lytle
[22:41] <demetros> I do have wine installed but the rendering fails.

[22:41] <erUSUL> !iso | demetros
[22:41] <zivbk1> Install or update to intrepid.
[22:41] <meizbak> Stele, , do I have to go all over apt-get update to see if it prints which one or there's a log where I can look this info up?
[22:41] <cllaudyu> hello
[22:41] <zivbk1> hello
[22:41] <erUSUL> !scaner
[22:41] <Stele> !ntfs-3g | Lytle
[22:41] <newbuntu> demetros: did u configure wine properly? also for isos there's a graphical utility for mounting isos called Gmount
[22:41] <erUSUL> !sane
[22:41] <Stele> !Fuse | Lytle
[22:42] <cllaudyu> is it safe to upgrade to intrepid? i downgraded to hardy cause of errors
[22:42] <Stele> meizbak: Yep, do and apt-get update and it'll show you the repositories with the gpg error
[22:42] <ecclesiastes> Help! I can't stop the wrong device driver from loading! blacklist failed.
[22:42] <newbuntu> cllaudyu : how did u downgrade.. i might want to go back too!
[22:42] <erUSUL> !downgrade

[22:42] <cllaudyu> i deleted 8.10 and reinstalled 8.04 from cd...
[22:43] <l3d> I reinstalled grub after i just added windows but it doesnt ask me what os to boot too how would I fix that?
[22:43] <demetros>  I don't know how to use Gmount. Also I'm not sure if i configured it correctly. I am entirely too new to linux...
[22:43] <newbuntu> cllaudyu : id' call that a clean install.. haha
[22:43] <demetros> Just call me a scrub.
[22:43] <cllaudyu> yeap
[22:43] <Stele> cllaudyu: I'm on Intrepid right now... No problems until now, just my webcam

[22:44] <crtoe> hi all
[22:45] <esay> cllaudyu yes nvidia driver is problem on 8.10 da
[22:45] <newbuntu> demetros: In gmount, after you browse, and then mount onto location cdrom, a cdrom will pop-up
[22:45] <crtoe> blockdev --report /dev/* 2> /dev/null; # gives me a segfault
[22:45] <unop> Neurologic_, I assume you are using the name of the remote machine ?  can you ping that name?
[22:45] <crtoe> anyone else have this behavior?
[22:45] <BK> Hello
[22:45] <cllaudyu> hmmm i don't know if i can install it again i am afraid i'l have the same errors

[22:45] <rebel_kid> erUSUL, that says the file is 1.6 GB but right-click -> properties says its 2.2 GB
[22:45] <newbuntu> cclaudyu: just the official nvidia drivers
[22:45] <demetros> Yes I see that but the cdrom isn't allowing me to do anything...

[22:45] <Spaz926> Can anyone help me reconfigure my screen res in Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop? Thanks.
[22:46] <sysdoc> X Server in Intrepid is a mess!!! Dual monitor separate X session, is broke!
[22:46] <erUSUL> demetros: intel is the driver and you should be using it already afaics
[22:46] <unop> BK, vim?
[22:46] <Stele> !dell
[22:46] <jonaskoelker> erUSUL: okay, so how do I enable EmulateWheel and other driver options?
[22:46] <Stele> !m1330
[22:46] <cllaudyu> yes i searched for nvidia in ubuntu8.10 on hardware drivers but it was empty
[22:46] <Neurologic_> unop, yep =)
[22:46] <edmont> erUSUL: thanks, i need to upgrade hplip, according to this: http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/officejet/officejet_j4680_series.html
[22:46] <demetros> but everytime i full screen anything it gives me a blue screen and crashes...
[22:46] <unop> Neurologic_, yep means you can ping the hostname?
[22:46] <erUSUL> jonaskoelker: you can try the suggested sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup ... but i'm not sure if that will fix your problem
[22:46] <esay> how is intel graphics card on intrepid?
[22:46] <BK> unop, yes, something through the command line, vi, vim, pico, etc.  Unless there is a way to do it through the GUI.
[22:47] <erUSUL> edmont: no problem
[22:47] <curtmack> What's the conventional method for upgrading from Hardy to Intrepid?
[22:47] <newbuntu> demetros: if u went found ur ISO via open and then Open the Mount point onto cdrom and then pressed Mount, a CD-rom will pop-up on ur desktop. If you can ope nthat mounting is working.
[22:47] <jonaskoelker> erUSUL: it won't, but thanks for trying
[22:47] <erUSUL> curtmack: use the update manager
[22:47] <unop> BK, you'll need to make changes to the xorg.conf
[22:47] <jonaskoelker> I think I need to poke HAL
[22:47] <erUSUL> !upgrade | curtmack
[22:47] <demetros> Thanks new.
[22:47] <esay> has it any problem intel graphics card on intrepid
[22:47] <erUSUL> !notes > curtmack

[22:47] <demetros> Anyone know how to use Aircrack?
[22:47] <BK> unop, I have but I don't see anything regarding screen resolution or refresh rates.
[22:48] <Stele> demetros: On the BackTrack Forums there are a lot of tutorials
[22:48] <demetros> I can't figure it out tho...
[22:48] <demetros> p.q
[22:48] <temp1919> just upgraded to intrepid.. when i boot the ethernet doesnt come up... it shows in ifconfig but the static IP from /etc/network/interfaces is not assigend...
[22:48] <Neurologic_> unop, yes.
[22:49] <cllaudyu> i don't know if is it safe... to upgrade to intrepid i allready had major isuess ... if someone can tell me that nvidia driver nvidia geforce4 mx440 is working on intrepid i'l do that upgrade....
[22:49] <ecclesiastes> Help! I can't stop the wrong device driver from loading! blacklist failed.
[22:49] <unop> BK, see man xorg.conf  - not all directives are mentioned in the xorg.conf
[22:49] <erUSUL> !blacklist | ecclesiastes
[22:49] <BK> Here is what my xorg.conf file says now. http://pastebin.com/d5c3d65ce
[22:49] <patmaddox> I'm trying to connect to a WPA-protected network, and I type the password in...then it tells me it can't connect, but the password it shows me is totally encrypted.  It looks like it's doing some hash on it and sending the wrong password?  I'm not sure
[22:50] <demetros> So. I'm trying to play an mmo made for ubuntu, like I installed it via the app. but I swear the graphic driver has to be wrong, kuz it's just failing...
[22:50] <curtmack> okay, thanks
[22:50] <erUSUL> ecclesiastes: did you run sudo update-initramfs -u after blacklisting it
[22:50] <stage3> cllaudyu, Legacy nvidia driver isn' work in ubuntu 8.10, look at the notes release
[22:50] <Stele> cllaudyu: I have an  nvidia 8400gs on my laptop and Intrepid is running without any problems...
[22:50] <_dennister> could someone help me pls? having trouble with basic networking in intrepid...worked at first, now can't even ping my router
[22:50] <Lytle> that site doesnt help me and neither does the driver it recromends
[22:50] <cllaudyu> not all nvidia drivers has the same probl that i have i saw that...
[22:51] <Lytle> can i get a step by step?
[22:51] <Stele> patmaddox: It shows the real password for the WPA network... What you normally enter as the password is known as a pre-shared key
[22:51] <erUSUL> Lytle: install the package named "ntfs-config" then umount all your ntfs partitions and run "gksudo ntfs-config"
[22:51] <BK> unop, it seems to have a bunch of generic references to 'configured' things.
[22:51] <demetros> Anyone know how to use aircrack in the terminal? that can give me a quick run down?
[22:51] <rebel_kid> i need to transfer a 2.2 GB file from a ubuntu machine to a windows machine, is there a simple tool to do this (i know there are ones for win only) or would it just be easier to  upload to my SFTP server and download
[22:51] <cllaudyu> i don't know how to install nvidia on xserver on ubuntu 8.10 is telling me that i can't
[22:51] <BK> unop, the odd part is that I had to change the refresh rate after login through the GUI, but where is that saved?
[22:52] <chaos1> Has anyone seen this site: http://appnr.com? It allows you to see screenshots and read a little more about the programs before you install them. It also has an install button for installing via synaptic.
[22:52] <evilspawn4> can anyone help me with thunderbird and ubuntu?

[22:53] <evilspawn4> well im looking for a way to make ubuntu start on startup in the system tray and alert me when i get emails but this option does come with thunderbird and minimize to tray addon doesnt work with ubuntu so im looking for a way to do this on ubuntu
[22:53] <rebel_kid> erUSUL, never head of netcat... googeling
[22:54] <ecclesiastes_> erUSUL: the last thing I saw was a sudo command and I replied that I had rebooted instead..
[22:54] <Neurologic_> unop, I can ping the hostname, do you have any other suggestion for a solution, or? =(
[22:54] <evilspawn4> when i said ubuntu the first time i meant thunderbird
[22:54] <crtoe> seriously? netcat is essential for every admin to know of
[22:54] <Lytle> what do i put for mount point
[22:54] <erUSUL> rebel_kid: http://oreilly.com/pub/h/1058 <<< note the first comment too is -l in the example not l-
[22:54] <erUSUL> evilspawn4: use gnubiff

[22:56] <Flare183> !upgrade | perillux
[22:56] <evilspawn4> so i just type apt-get gnubiff?
[22:56] <Lytle> i need a mount point plz hlp
[22:56] <perillux> Stele: I got hardy
[22:56] <Flare183> evilspawn4: sudo apt-get install gnubiff

[22:56] <neil_d> can I use wodim (alias cdrecord) to check if there is a blank CD in the drive ?
[22:56] <perillux> Flare183: thanks
[22:57] <Stele> perillux: Thne do a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[22:57] <ecclesiastes_> evilspawn4: this might help : https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Command_Line_Options
[22:57] <unop> Neurologic_, try using rdesktop like this.   rdesktop  servername:3389
[22:57] <Flare183> perillux: Np
[22:57] <insigne> msn
[22:57] <erUSUL> Lytle: a mount point can be any empty folder
[22:57] <BK> unop, I see... so I need to add some more information to my xorg.conf file.
[22:57] <Stele> perillux: But you'll have to enable the update to non-lts versions
[22:57] <Neurologic_> unop, in the terminal?
[22:57] <Lytle> so what do i type in?
[22:57] <unop> BK, right yep
[22:57] <erUSUL> Lytle: usually created in /media/ or /mnt/
[22:57] <unop> BK, otherwise xorg.conf tries to choose some defaults for you
[22:57] <evilspawn4> ok i just installed it now how do i use it?
[22:57] <unop> Neurologic_, sure
[22:58] <erUSUL> evilspawn4: launch it
[22:58] <Neurologic_> unop, Oh hey! That worked!

[22:58] <evilspawn4> oh lol ty
[22:58] <BK> unop thank you... I will add some refresh stuff and resolution info to the file.
[22:59] <evilspawn4> sorry i just installed linux yesterday so im still kinda new
[22:59] <Neurologic_> unop, so, thanks so much, but...does this mean I'll have to use rdesktop in the terminal to do it? Is there no program?
[22:59] <x_or> Can anyone advise me on a simple way to boot a process when the system starts. I am reading up on init.d scripts, but I'd like to find an automated way to write the script if possible.
[22:59] <unop> Neurologic_, then for some reason tsclient isn't choosing the right parameters - you might need to tweak it a bit, bear in mind that tsclient is actually a rdesktop GUI frontend
[22:59] <jarco> lol

[23:03] <Brucee> Flare183 i think its the sources.list

[23:04] <cllaudyu> perillux i'm trying too but no succes ;((
[23:04] <wert613> I've just ascertained that restarting the Xserver fixed the issue
[23:04] <kindofabuzz> is compiz broken in Intrepid or is it just broken with nvidia legacy drivers?
[23:04] <Lytle> thanks guys i got it
[23:04] <unop> Neurologic_, sure, you can create a gnome-panel launcher that runs that command for you - but don't ask me how that's done, i don't use gnome.
[23:04] <purpzey> !font > purpzey
[23:04] <Flare183> Brucee: Its not in the sources.list

[23:05] <Brucee> Flare183 its ubuntu server
[23:05] <Flare183> find out what the program ID is and use sudo kill
[23:06] <Flare183> Brucee: I know but what are you using to connect (e.g. Ethernet, Wireless, etc.)
[23:06] <Flare183> What?
[23:06] <GreedyB> Flare183: I think its coming back cause killing it doesnt do anything
[23:06] <Flare183> umm
[23:06] <Flare183> then stop the fuse service
[23:06] <Flare183> GreedyB: then stop the fuse service
[23:06] <GreedyB> Flare183: okay
[23:06] <Brucee> Flare183 i am trying to get sucrity updates with "" apt-get update
[23:07] <harlekin> tiredbones, normally it should work out of the box since version 7.04

[23:07] <perillux> ecclesiastes_: you can just install it from the terminal
[23:07] <Neurologic_> unop, thanks =) I'll ask someone else then
[23:07] <perillux> ecclesiastes_: sudo apt-get install vlc
[23:07] <unop> Neurologic_, :)
[23:08] <Brucee> Flare183 , thru ethernet cable
[23:08] <Neurologic_> Anyone know how to create a gnome-panel launcher, that will run a terminal command?
[23:08] <Neurologic_> This seems the logical place to look *lol*
[23:08] <Flare183> Brucee: ok And have you ran sudo dhclient yet?
[23:08] <ecclesiastes_> perillux: I was just talking to cllaudyu about that .. he's the one with the actual question.
[23:08] <unop> Neurologic_, i'll guess that you right click on the panel .. etc
[23:08] <Brucee> Flare183 , when i type ifconfig, it shows an ip
[23:08] <l3d> ok I see the grub menu now but I dont know what I should add to get it to boot to the windows side?
[23:08] <tiredbones> harlekin, I have release 8.04 and my son and I can seem to get it working.
[23:08] <Neurologic_> unop, oh, create custom application launcher?
[23:08] <Flare183> Brucee: Well pastebin the output
[23:08] <Maltor124> Hi, I was talking to danbhfive yesterday, but it looks like he's afk right now. Anyways, some help with Grub, it's installed, but for some reason it's not activating when I boot up. I have all of the files there, in /boot/grub/. I dunno what's wrong. Can anybody help me?

[23:09] <[T]ank> I am trying to add a vpn connection in ubuntu 8.10. When i open the vpn configuration dialog the button for adding a new vpn configuration is not selectable. Any ideas on why this would be? I just did the install. I have not done anything custom yet.
[23:09] <Neurologic_> unop, ok, so application in terminal, I assume, and under command I just put the rdesktop stuff?
[23:09] <perillux> cllaudyu: just go to a terminal and type       sudo apt-get install vlc

[23:13] <YlandeFaran> Recomended minimum requirements for the hd is 8GB, I don't understand why my 20GB would be any problem. :/
[23:13] <kindofabuzz> is compiz broke in Intrepid with nvidia legacy?
[23:13] <wandana> Hello everyone, 8.10 is great but currently I've some issues with my VPN connection
[23:13] <perillux> cllaudyu: there is a way to still upgrade without having to find it online.  I forgot though
[23:13] <rhsanborn> lionsong, indeed, didn't give me the option to select a difference driver or resolution though...
[23:13] <tiredbones> harlekin, No not yet, we are going to wait a couple of months.My son is in college now and doesn't have the time to experiment with it.
[23:14] <Maltor124> Hi, I was talking to danbhfive yesterday, but it looks like he's afk right now. Anyways, some help with Grub, it's installed, but for some reason it's not activating when I boot up. I have all of the files there, in /boot/grub/. I dunno what's wrong. Can anybody help me?
[23:14] <Double0> wandana: me too!
[23:14] <wandana> So, where under ubuntu can I set the verbose mode for openvpn
[23:14] <lionsong> rhsanborn >> sorry cant be more help

[23:15] <wandana> Nov  6 09:15:10 ventus nm-openvpn[27003]: write to TUN/TAP : Invalid argument (code=22)
[23:16] <Double0> I get the same thing, but I am PPTP, rather than openvpn
[23:16] <Double0> Do your routes and nameservers change when you connect?
[23:16] <MExTux> clear
[23:16] <wandana> Well, looks all good
[23:16] <Double0> I have not yet determined whether or not that error is the actual cause of the problem
[23:17] <unop> anyone know how to have ntfs-3g used over ntfs when automatically mounting ntfs volumes?
[23:17] <acm1pt> hola vithe
[23:17] <acm1pt> acm1pt
[23:17] <Double0> I have gotten to the point where I can connect to VPN, ssh, nslookup and ping, but nothing else goes through
[23:18] <acm1pt> shut your fucking face uncle fuca
[23:18] <wandana> Ypu can use ssh via vpn?
[23:18] <Maltor124> Can anyone help me?
[23:18] <acm1pt> suck my dick uncle fuca
[23:18] <DoYouKnow> how do I get vmware working in ubuntu intrepid?
[23:18] <Double0> yes
[23:18] <eddVRS> acm1pt: tone down the language please
[23:18] <pen> hi
[23:19] <rhsanborn> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg simply asks about keyboard layouts and doesn't give me any options to handle resolution or drivers.
[23:19] <acm1pt> i want a girl to taste my dick
[23:19] <stdin> !ops | acm1pt
[23:19] <wandana> Double0: But then it seems that you vpn connection is running
[23:19] <acm1pt> shalom uncle fucker
[23:19] <dingumessiah> i need help with getting my 8800gt fan to run on full
[23:19] <harlekin> tiredbones, you have a private message
[23:19] <dingumessiah> im new to linux
[23:19] <ecclesiastes_> Help! Blacklisting the problem module doesn't work!
[23:20] <FreshPrince> i'm using winscp to transfer files from windows machine to linux, what can i use to transfer files from a Linux machine to a windows machine?
[23:20] <dingumessiah> !help
[23:20] <methods> can I ask questions in here for the new ubuntu ?
[23:20] <ecclesiastes_> methods: Yep.
[23:21] <Maltor124> Some help with Grub, it's installed, but for some reason it's not activating when I boot up. I have all of the files there, in /boot/grub/. I dunno what's wrong. Can anybody help me?
[23:21] <Pelo> where do module files need to be located to be loaded with modprobe ?
[23:21] <Maltor124> Sorry for spam, but I urgently need some help!
[23:21] <FreshPrince> methods, don't ask to ask, just ask!
[23:22] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: It sounds like a problem with the master boot record ( mbr ) or the linux equivalent
[23:22] <DoYouKnow> I want to boot x64 Windows Server 2008 R2 in an x86 virtual machine on linux... is this possible?
[23:22] <methods> yea my wireless card only use to work with ndiswrapper... now there is a restricted driver for it... both methods appear to detect networks in network manager... but neither methods seem to be able to actually make a full connect.... does network manager use iwconfig??? cause I don't see any settings on the card when it's connecting... Also does network manager use dhclient3 now ?
[23:22] <DoYouKnow> the pre-beta
[23:22] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: Is that what you were working on last?
[23:23] <wandana> Where in ubuntu can I set openvpn in a verbose mode?
[23:23] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: Exactly, but I don't know what's wrong.
[23:23] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: Uhm, what do you mean by that?
[23:23] <DoYouKnow> perhaps what I am asking for... is too great for even linux to handle
[23:23] <ompaul> Maltor124, this is advice, I don't know if I know the answer to your question, you are going to say something does not work - error messages are good
[23:23] <DoYouKnow> atm
[23:23] <ryanakca> unop: stab in the dark, but, automatically mounting, as in fstab? or in a script?
[23:23] <Flare183> !vpn | wandana
[23:23] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: I was just asking so that I was up to speed with your previous conversation.
[23:23] <DoYouKnow> because there hasn't been enough time to figure out the intricacies of the pre-beta and fix up the problems in the emulators
[23:24] <Flare183> methods: Is a broadcom wireless card?
[23:24] <gigel2007> How can I learn ubuntu like basics and basic commands ?
[23:24] <Flare183> !bash | gigel2007
[23:24] <majd> hey
[23:24] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: Oh, right. Danbhfive last asked me to show him my menu.lst
[23:24] <fefefefe> hihi
[23:24] <philippe_> DoYouKnow, VirtualBox handle Windows Server 2008
[23:24] <unop> ryanakca, well, neither - I plug a USB stick in and have it mounted via dolphin or nautilus
[23:24] <dingumessiah> how do i controle gpu fan?
[23:24] <Guest71960> l
[23:25] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: But since then I've reinstalled Ubuntu, and I now HAVE a menu.lst, while I didn't before.
[23:25] <LostChild1> Hi, I have all my music stored on /home/matt/Music . I own a Zune and thus dual boot into Windows Vista Ultimate to use the proprietary (ick) Zune Software to sync my music. I have fs-driver installed on Vista to allow it to read/write to my Ext3 Drive. However, for a FEW folders say /home/matt/Music/JME/Famous or /home/matt/Emily Haines And The Soft Skeleton/What Doesn't have your back/ Vista will give me a "Cannot Find Fold
[23:25] <LostChild1> er" type error (And thus won't show up in the software) but if I'm using Ubuntu, I can browse and listen to those files a-ok (I can do this in Windows too, just, I can't change permissions to those folders, whereas I can to every other folder)
[23:25] <methods> Flare183:  you got it buddy !! but like i said i use to configure it via ndiswrapper and it would work fine... now it doesn't work via that method anymore... so I'm thinking it's a problem with the new kernel or something...
[23:25] <majd> ubuntu is working fine, i can boot into root CLI and it works fine, i can see the GUI for ubuntu loading, but as soon as that's done, my monitor blanks out and says Out of Range....any ideas?
[23:25] <ecclesiastes_> Malto124: but it's not using the menu ...
[23:25] <Flare183> methods: ok take a look at this factoid:
[23:25] <Flare183> !bcm | methods
[23:25] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: but it's not using the menu ...
[23:25] <philippe_> dingumessiah, with nvidia card, use nvclock : http://www.linuxhardware.org/nvclock/
[23:25] <Flare183> methods: That should help
[23:25] <_MarcoPau_> hello, since my last upgrade to kernel 2.6.24-21 I haven't been able to use alsa. is says there's no modules, and in the reps there only one alsa modules package which si for 2.6.24-18
[23:26] <methods> Fla thanks
[23:26] <Flare183> Flare183*
[23:26] <Flare183> methods: np
[23:26] <majd> my "Monitor" section in xorg.conf only has an identifier
[23:26] <legend2440> Pelo:  modprobe  looks  in  the  module  directory  /lib/modules/‘uname  -r‘  for  all  the modules and other files
 is that all I need to know ?
[23:26] <Double0> wandana: I agree, but I cannot get other types of traffic and applications to traverse :(
[23:26] <majd> when i run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it doesn't give me options for the monitor's refresh rate
[23:26] <rhsanborn> majd, I'm having the exact same problem
[23:26] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: I dunno, I just did what he told me to do. Before that I was given advice to reinstall Grub through the terminal, from a page. It reinstalled without any errors, but it didn't fix anything.
[23:27] <unop> ryanakca, same happens when i use something like  pmount at the shell
[23:27] <wandana> Double0: iptables running?
[23:27] <LostChild1> Hi, I have all my music stored on /home/matt/Music . I own a Zune and thus dual boot into Windows Vista Ultimate to use the proprietary (ick) Zune Software to sync my music. I have fs-driver installed on Vista to allow it to read/write to my Ext3 Drive.

[23:27] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: The error message I'm getting is: BOOTMGR IS MISSING (newline) Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart.
[23:27] <l3d> ok grub is a pain in the but  i need to reinstall it all togeher and also it must see ubuntu and windows is there a site or some one to help me with this task?
[23:27] <jin_> if you put Ubuntu in a ramdisk would it be faster?
[23:27] <Double0> wandana: nope
[23:27] <leandropds> fuck all !
[23:27] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: hold one.
[23:28] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: Okay, thanks
[23:28] <Flare183> !language | leandropds
[23:28] <wandana> Double0: Sorry, no idea. Not really an expert
[23:28] <ryanakca> unop: ah. no clue. Look into configuring HAL though... methinks it works with scripts under /usr/lib/hal or something. Might be able to write one for ntfs volumes that uses ntfs-3g instead...
[23:29] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: Is this a dual boot system?
[23:29] <gordonjcp> ah, forgot I was still connected here
[23:29] <Kassah> does anyone know what pkg kdebase-kio-plugins has been replaced with?
[23:29] <Grey_Loki> So i'm trying to boot Ubuntu from a USB flash drive for a livecd-style experience. I used UNetbootin to create a bootable USB drive, which seems to be recognised. However, i'm confronted with a boot: prompt. On the CD, I press enter and 'it goes', but with this USB thing I need to apparantly specify the kernel i'll be using. What should I be typing?
[23:29] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: No, this system had Vista previously, but I've formatted to ext3 twice since then. No traces are left of that I am aware of.
[23:29] <ryanakca> unop: ah, look at http://forum.ntfs-3g.org/viewtopic.php?t=267
[23:30] <Pelo> legend2440, thanks,  I was testing the proceedure to setup my neigbour's webcam on my comp but it's a MS so I might be out of luck
[23:30] <unop> ryanakca, thanks, i'll have a look at it
[23:30] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: And that's what happened to the mbr.
[23:31] <jspiro> Grey_Loki:  I don't use UNetbootin for booting Ubuntu off a USB volume.  I installed to HDD, then copied to an ext3 partition in the first 8GB of my USB (if it is later, it won't work on many PCs), then installed the "gujin" bootloader in the last 64MB of the USB volume (which I left unpartitioned.)  Gujin finds the kernel for me.  It works perfectly; I could not get grub to work.
[23:31] <jspiro> Grey_Loki: I don't even know anything about unetbootin.
[23:32] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: You mean it's deleted, too? I already booted successfully into Ubuntu twice, maybe three times before this happened. Like I said, Grub is there, though. Is some remnant of Windows screwing with it?
[23:32] <cllaudyu> help! i tried to do an update in terminal using command sudo apt-get update and i get this error Segmentation faultchete... 1%
[23:32] <hanasaki> when i boot my network card does not get an IP... the ip is configured as static in /ectc/network/interfaces  why is this?  what effect does NetworkManager and avahi have?
[23:32] <Spencer> hi
[23:33] <Spencer> UBUNTU ROCKS!
[23:33] <jspiro> cllaudyu:  you found a bug.  Report it in launchpad if you like.  It will be appreciated and help others.  If you refuse:  Try sudo aptitude update instead.   Any ideas?
[23:33] <jspiro> Grey_Loki:  then speak with a friend on MSN and get a CD.  Or go to a 24-hour pharmacy, if you have one in your city.
[23:33] <cllaudyu> jspiro how to repport the bugg? it didn't work...
[23:34] <jspiro> cllaudyu:  do you have a spare 10 minutes?
[23:34] <cllaudyu> ok
[23:34] <hanasaki> why is it that when I i do have an static IP on my interface nic gnome assigns a dhcp ip when I login?
[23:34] <jspiro> cllaudyu:  yes?
[23:34] <cllaudyu> yes
[23:35] <FoeNyx> hello, I have a small question, after an upgrade to ibex, all my kde4 applications refuses to work (even under gnome) ~ (there are no desktop effect or compiz installed) all the kde4 application process run wild (100% cpu) but without anything displayed.

[23:35] <RAdams> nvidia-settings crashes when trying to save to x configuration file after enabling a second monitor, using nvidia-glx-new. Can anyone tell me how to find out what it is trying to write to the xorg.conf so I can add it myself?
[23:35] <jspiro> cllaudyu: please wait 2 minutes
[23:35] <cllaudyu> i'l wait
[23:35] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: Yes, I installed 8.04, then upgraded to 8.10, rebooted, then installed NVIDIA drivers, then rebooted again. On the third reboot is when Grub mysteriously disappeared.
[23:36] <RAdams> Maltor124: Have you tried grub-update?
[23:36] <Maltor124> RAdams: How do I do that?
[23:36] <chrziz> Is there any reason my ubuntu wont connect to my new router when the new router has the same settings as the old one that it was able to connect it?
[23:36] <RAdams> Maltor124: sorry, update-grub. Run sudo update-grub in a terminal
[23:37] <cllaudyu> Segmentation faultchete... 1% every time i use sudo apt-get update :(((
[23:37] <RAdams> chrziz: Is your router set to DHCP?
[23:37] <dingumessiah> can someone plz help me install stuff from the desktop
[23:37] <chrziz> RAdams: yes, both are
[23:37] <ecclesiastes_> RAdams: Maltor124 said he had a good menu.lst
[23:38] <cllaudyu> hmmmm
[23:38] <chrziz> RAdams: Ubuntu finds the network, promps for the network key and fails to connect every time
[23:38] <RAdams> ecclesiastes_: ok. Maltor124, post your menu.lst to pastebin
[23:38] <Maltor124> RAdams: Okay.
[23:39] <jspiro> cllaudyu: please join me in #ubuntu-bugs
[23:39] <Maltor124> RAdams: http://paste.ubuntu.com/68121/
[23:39] <jspiro> cllaudyu: i will explain the question for you
[23:39] <jspiro> in there
[23:39] <cllaudyu> jspiro ok
[23:39] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_:http://paste.ubuntu.com/68121/
[23:39] <RAdams> Maltor124: still try the command I suggested, but backup your menu.lst first: sudo cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst.backup
[23:39] <dingumessiah> i need help installing things!
[23:40] <iztehsux> er does ubuntu intrepid use alsa?
[23:40] <RAdams> chrziz: oh wireless. okay, is the new router the same exact model as the old?
[23:40] <RAdams> iztehsux: defaultly, yes
[23:40] <RAdams> nvidia-settings crashes when trying to save to x configuration file after enabling a second monitor, using nvidia-glx-new. Can anyone tell me how to find out what it is trying to write to the xorg.conf so I can add it myself?
[23:41] <bastid_raZor> dingumessiah; use synaptic under System>Administration
[23:41] <iztehsux> RAdams: i installed the broadcom driver for my laptop and now my sound died unexpectedly. do you know how to reconfigure it?
[23:41] <chrziz> RAdams: no, I upgraded from a Lynksis WRT54GS to a Linksys WRT160N
[23:41] <bastid_raZor> chrziz; do you have a 'N' wifi card?
[23:41] <RAdams> chrziz: are you using the same wifi card in the computer as before? is it a g-only card?
[23:42] <chrziz> bastid_raZor: I dont have a N card but it should be backwards compatible
[23:42] <carlinhos> hi, can anyone help me with my screen resolution 1680x1050 with laptop?
[23:42] <Double0> it appears that I am having nameserver issues with my vpn connection.  resolv.conf gets updates, and nslookup notices the changes, but nothing else does.  Any idea how to force the change to propagate?
[23:42] <chrziz> RAdams: same wifi card as before
[23:42] <RAdams> chrziz: try and set the router to G only
[23:42] <saxofoner> what happened to the gimmie panel applet?
[23:43] <bastid_raZor> chrziz; you may need to set the router up specially to broadcast b/g instead of N ..
[23:43] <chrziz> RAdams: thanks I will try that
[23:43] <bastid_raZor> RAdams; you're on the right path. i'll let you solve his issues :)
[23:43] <RAdams> carlinhos: please state the model of your laptop and your specific problem and post your xorg.conf to pastebin.
[23:43] <chrziz> basid_raZor: I have it set on Auto right now
[23:43] <carlinhos> thanks RAdams, i am new here
[23:44] <Maltor124> RAdams: update-grub reports no directory for GRUB. That's probably because Grub is actually at /media/disk/boot/grub (I'm running from the live CD)
[23:44] <carlinhos> paste all here but not xorg?
[23:44] <Maltor124> RAdams: There any way I can specify a custom dir?
[23:44] <saxofoner> !gimmie
[23:44] <chrziz> bastid_raZor: thanks for the suggestion as well, i will tryi t
[23:44] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: can you mount the disk you want to boot from?
[23:45] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: nevermind.. stupid question. can you check to see that that partition is marked as bootable?
[23:45] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: Yeah, I was gonna say it's already mounted. Okay, checking.
[23:45] <carlinhos> RAdams: my laptop is MSI PR300 and i want resolution on my screen of 22" of 1680x1050 and i dont know how to configure it
[23:46] <japanfred> hey everyone, since upgrading to 8.10, any sound via alsa is just a crackle? is this a known issue?
[23:46] <unop> ryanakca, i couldn't find any hal scripts on my machine - so i did some searching and found this http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#plugandplay  creating the symlink works just right, thanks again :)
[23:46] <RAdams> Maltor124: oh, that's why. Yes, grub will get borked routinely when running from the live cd, because the automagic kernel updater for grub doesn't expect that. You will have to patch grub manually each time you install a new kernel, and stop the automagic updates
[23:47] <RAdams> Maltor124: there might be a way to redirect it, the silly way would be to softlink it in the real /boot directory
[23:47] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: I can't find where it is, where exactly would I find that info?
[23:47] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: RAdams has the answer
[23:47] <RAdams> carlinhos: what video card?
[23:47] <rebel_kid> crud, im using SFTP (openSSH) to connect to my box, it only has public key authentication enabled, i have disconnected the external network (for security) how can i temporarily enable password authentication ( i forgot :( )
[23:48] <yosyp> how much space does a normal ubuntu install take up?
[23:48] <Maltor124> RAdams: Uh, maybe you misunderstood, my real Linux install is on the hard drive. I am just using this for recovery purposes. THis would apply anyway..?
[23:48] <RAdams> rebel_kid: change your sshd.conf
[23:48] <chrziz> RAdams: I for got to tell you that I can connect to the network through Vista on the same computer, so do you think switching to G-only would still help?
[23:48] <RAdams> Maltor124: yes, i did misunderstand
[23:48] <rebel_kid> RAdams, change what specifically
[23:48] <erUSUL> !requirements
[23:48] <jin> hi, is there a way to clear all cache in ram?
[23:48] <RAdams> chrziz: try it
[23:48] <carlinhos> RAdams: this video card  Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller
[23:48] <LF|Irssi_> rebel_kid: Im actaully trying to do the opposite, i WANT key, not password for my sshd, but cant seem to figure out how to do that in the config
[23:48] <RAdams> carlinhos: one moment
[23:49] <RAdams> rebel_kid: hold on, looking, been awhile
[23:49] <chrziz> RAdams: thanks for the help!

[23:49] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: Im looking ...
[23:49] <rebel_kid> LF|Irssi, found it, heres the article i used to set it up http://www.howtoforge.com/set-up-ssh-with-public-key-authentication-debian-etch
[23:49] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: Alright, thanks a lot.
[23:49] <rebel_kid> LF|Irssi, its for debian but debian == preconfigured debian for the most part
[23:50] <RAdams> rebel_kid: /etc/ssh/ssh_config, change PasswordAuthentication to True
[23:50] <rebel_kid> ty RAdams
[23:50] <RAdams> rebel_kid: yes, not true, sorry
[23:50] <RAdams> Although true might work...
[23:50] <LF|Irssi_> ok rebel_kid ty
[23:50] <sdfvdvf> 2 of the main advantages for linux over windows i thought were: 1. stability/reliability/control/speed, ie always being able to tell the computer what to do, no runaway processes eating up all rsources maing thre machine unrepsonsive. 2. programmer convenience, package salways working. yeah some packages dont work for windows but do on linux but hey it is often the other way around too. #### Im running on vmware and i dont have a supercomp
[23:50] <rebel_kid> RAdams, what i meant by that is that setup for many things is the same
[23:50] <mzuverink> Firefox continues to repeatedly take over the whole desktop hiding my upper and lower panel, anyone else having this issue
[23:50] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: can you run GParted? the partion editor?

[23:52] <brandon_> Oh, wait
[23:52] <RAdams> carlinhos: does the monitor show up in the screen resolution utility under System --> Preferences?

[23:52] <ecclesiastes_> Maltor124: Yeah.. we're just going to look for now
[23:52] <brandon_> Then right-clicking on the firefox icon in the lower taskbar and clicking 'move'
[23:53] <brandon_> Or... if that doesn't work, try using the alt key and the arrow keys to get to it from there
[23:53] <brandon_> I... think that works on Linux...
[23:53] <brandon_> Er... no it doesn't
[23:53] <carlinhos> RAdams: no, it shows perfecto on laptop, 1280... but not enough on my screen, 1378x768 and i need 1680x1050. I think i need configure xorg but i dont know how
[23:53] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: Okay, there's only /dev/sda1
[23:53] <RAdams> nvidia-settings crashes when trying to save to x configuration file after enabling a second monitor, using nvidia-glx-new. Can anyone tell me how to find out what it is trying to write to the xorg.conf so I can add it myself?
[23:53] <brandon_> Aha, Alt+F7
[23:53] <brandon_> See if that works..?
[23:53] <RAdams> carlinhos: okay, are you attempting to run dual display, or just single?
[23:54] <Maltor124> ecclesiastes_: It's on ext3, mountpoint is /media/disk, size is 300GB, used is 5.9GB, it's flagged as boot.
[23:54] <carlinhos> RAdams: dual is no need. Just need 22" at home, and laptop outside
