[05:44] <neutrinomass> Warbo: I don't think you *need* eagleconf (or whatever its name). It probably is just a convienience....
[05:44] <neutrinomass> Warbo: I'd guess its just a matter of setting up the firmware and pppd ....
[05:45] <revstray> and btw... as a recent pure debian convert, Ubuntu is refreshing
[05:45] <Warbo> neutrinomass: Well, I would prefer to use network-admin, but I can live with eagleconfig if it means I don't have to edit files by hand (I have actually set up an eagle-usb connection by hand on a Kanotix LiveCD)
[05:45] <Some_Person> what is ubuntu lite and easyubuntu?

[05:52] <webguy> i need the mcrypt php function which does not come with the defaiult bb ubuntu install.  how do i add it?
[05:52] <livevil> sorry I haven't made it with intention
[05:52] <bean> help pls
[05:53] <NoUse> livevil how did you download the ISO?
[05:53] <bean> is it possible to recover my data from the windows dynamic disk?
[05:53] <Codenut> How would I use an ethernet card to connect to a network where the is a CDROM of Breezy to install. The CD rom on my Dell docking station does not work.
[05:53] <jishin> I checked English , Japanese in Language support but it seems to add just about UTF-8

[05:53] <NoUse> livevil with bittorrent or no?
[05:53] <livevil> europe mirror
[05:53] <Pupeno> wastrel: that lets me choose a screensaver, but it doesn't let me configure a screensaver (like, random screensaver used to let me choose which ones to use).
[05:53] <zenithsN00b_> thanks spikeb, I'll check it out.
[05:53] <jishin> I also want to add ja_JP.eucJP , that's why need to add manually
[05:53] <livevil> I haven't bittorrent
[05:53] <livevil> emule
[05:53] <NoUse> livevil did you verify that the ISO was downloaded properly?
[05:53] <webguy> ANYONE? i need the mcrypt php function which does not come with the defaiult bb ubuntu install.  how do i add it?
[05:53] <spikeb> zenithsN00b_: for geek news, slashdot has a feed :)
[05:53] <kieranDOA> webguy: "You need to compile PHP with the --with-mcrypt[=DIR]  parameter to enable this extension. DIR is the mcrypt install directory. Make sure you compile libmcrypt with the option --disable-posix-threads."
[05:54] <NoUse> livevil bittorrent is the best way to get ISOS, for future reference
[05:54] <livevil> I tried to reinstall the old version the eroor message remains
[05:54] <Codenut> Can I boot under windows and then install ubuntu from there?
[05:54] <zenithsN00b_> spikeb: nice, how often does it update?
[05:54] <livevil> I don't think the problem is a corruption in the iso
[05:54] <NoUse> livevil I know, did you verify that the iso was downloaded properly?
[05:54] <webguy> kieranDOA: thanks - where did you geth that from and how do i compile on my server?  is that from a page with more directions?
[05:54] <tritium> Codenut: no, but you can boot into the desktop Live CD, and install from that
[05:54] <livevil> no, How I can verify?
[05:54] <Panda-> I can't install AMSN w/ synaptic... it says it's missing repositories
[05:54] <spikeb> zenithsN00b_: i'm not sure, but every time there's a new story on /. i'd imagine
[05:54] <jishin> where can i manually edit locales in dapper ?
[05:54] <spikeb> zenithsN00b_: so quite often some days
[05:54] <kieranDOA> http://uk.php.net/mcrypt
[05:54] <tritium> webguy: you can apt-get build packages from source
[05:55] <usuario><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:55] <wastrel> Pupeno:  so seems that dapper has replaced xscreensaver with some gnomey version.
[05:55] <zenithsN00b_> spikeb: sweet, maybe I'll do that.  NPR and slashdot sounds like a winning combo.
[05:55] <wastrel> Pupeno:  maybe installing xscreensaver will fix ...  you know how gnome loves to dumb down options.
[05:55] <spikeb> zenithsN00b_: :)
[05:55] <Panda-> depends imlib1, sox and libpng10-o <[05:55] <Codenut> I have only seen the feature set of the live CD, it seems to show off the featurs, but hey, I will try any thing now.
[05:55] <spikeb> Pupeno: install xscreensaver
[05:55] <NoUse> !verify
[05:55] <ubotu> somebody said verify was to check the integrity of your installation media, one way is to visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VerifyIsoHowto
[05:55] <NoUse> livevil ^^^
[05:55] <livevil> ok
[05:56] <webguy> tritium: well how do i --disable-posix-threads if i do apt-get install mcrypt?
[05:56] <livevil> !verify
[05:56] <tritium> webguy: I told you you can _build_ from source packages
[05:56] <livevil> whre I have to execute this command?
[05:56] <livevil> have I , sorry
[05:56] <bobo> anyone??
[05:56] <webguy> sorry tritium i am new at this i do't know how to build from source packages?
[05:57] <webguy> do you mean that I can't apt get rather i need to install from source?
[05:57] <iratik> Alright guys, i've accidentally changed the user ownership of /usr/bin/sudo What is the proper chmod and chown command to revert it back to its intended state??
[05:57] <raptros-v76> iratik: rtfm
[05:57] <tritium> webguy: no, I'm saying there are repositories of source packages, just like binary packages, and you can build from source using apt-get
[05:57] <raptros-v76> iratik: j/k
[05:58] <webguy> so what would i type exactly?  apt-get install mcrypt --disable-posix-threads
[05:58] <kieranDOA> iratik: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LostPassword
[05:58] <phoenixofcha0s> guys im doing a very wierd thing i need to copy a backup of all the files on my system to a folder how do i do this ?
[05:58] <raptros-v76> kieranDOA: hes done that, i belive
[05:58] <phoenixofcha0s> i have all the files ready to copy how do i copy ?
[05:58] <iratik> kieranDOA: I'm on that page, thats for addressing a password malfunction not user ownership of /usr/bin/sudo
[05:58] <wastrel> -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 93844 2006-05-17 04:41 /usr/bin/sudo
[05:58] <tritium> webguy: no, not exactly.  You'll want to read the man page for apt-get for how to build
[05:58] <bobo> The following packages have unmet dependencies:

[05:58] <bobo>  and   Depends: libpng10-0 but it is not installable
[05:58] <bobo>  .... broken package.....what do I do??
[05:58] <phoenixofcha0s> I need to copy from /media/EXTERNAL/backup to /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
[05:58] <tritium> bobo: pastebin!
[05:58] <NoUse> !flood
[05:59] <ubotu> well, flood is for pasting, please use http://pastebin.com , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org or #flood here on freenode.
[05:59] <webguy> can you give me a sample command? tritium?
[05:59] <iratik> wastrel: I don't know how to erad the rwxs stuff, whats the proper chown command- is there any extra flags i have to pass?
[05:59] <bobo> sorry
[05:59] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  depends on the kind of files.   the 'cp' command, or a nice intercface like 'mc' makes it easier
[05:59] <raptros-v76> iratik: do that to get permissions to change sudo
[05:59] <onkarshinde> Any idea when will we see Ekiga update in repositories?
[05:59] <wastrel> iratik:  what does your ls -l /usr/bin/sudo   look like currently?
[05:59] <tritium> onkarshinde: when and if there is a security fix
[06:00] <raptros-v76> iratik: what did you change? ownership? or permissions
[06:00] <daxxar> Hm. I can't seem to disable audible bell and have a visual bell. In .inputrc, I set it to be visible, but this just disables the audible bell.
[06:00] <iratik> ownership
[06:00] <tritium> onkarshinde: after a stable release, only security fixes are made
[06:00] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, um its all the system files what i have done is copied all the files to an external hardrive and then wiped linux and installed windows made a ext3 partion and now ive mde a folder ont he desktop mounted it has hda2 which is the linux partion and im trying to move all the files back
[06:00] <kieranDOA> "<NoUse> iratik that will get you a root prompt, then set sudo's permissions to: -rwsr-xr-x and owned by root:root"
[06:00] <iratik> is it just chmod root sudo?
[06:00] <bobo> does anyone know how to met those dependencies?
[06:00] <tritium> webguy: I'm going to have to get going soon.
[06:00] <daxxar> Anyone have any suggestions?
[06:00] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, make sense ?
[06:00] <raptros-v76> iratik: no
[06:00] <NoUse> iratik chown root:root
[06:00] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  you are saying you are trying to 'restore' a backed up linux install?

[06:01] <krod> How would I go about installing the kernel headers?
[06:01] <Mewshi> Dude
[06:01] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, its not a... like..backup just everyfile on the linux partion i recently had
[06:01] <tritium> onkarshinde: no
[06:01] <Mewshi> do you not understand the meaning of STOP?
[06:01] <kieranDOA> krod:i believe the kernel headers get installed when you install gcc/g++ atleast they did with me
[06:01] <bobo> can someone help me?
[06:01] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  everything as inb the /etc/ /dev/ /root/ /var/ dirs and so forth? or just /home?
[06:01] <spikeb> stop, in the name of love
[06:01] <onkarshinde> tritium: Do you manage any package in repositories?
[06:01] <phoenixofcha0s> yes
[06:01] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_williis thats is corect
[06:02] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis,  that is correct
[06:02] <tritium> onkarshinde: I work on packages in universe only
[06:02] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  ok - the question now is how did you 'back' them up?>
[06:02] <krod> kieranDOA, I don't think so..
[06:02] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis let me see just a second
[06:02] <onkarshinde> tritium: AFAIK, bug fixes are also made that is why we have dapper, dapper-updates, dapper-security
[06:02] <webguy> according to this page there is a package php5-mcrypt http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/source/php-mcrypt
[06:03] <nalioth_> misterj: please don't paste in here
[06:03] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, i used this "sudo tar lvcf - . | (cd /media/EXTERNAL/backup ; tar xpvf -)"
[06:03] <webguy> however, when i run apt-get install php5-mcrypt i am get an error that "coutn' find package.."
[06:03] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  you then want to use that command but you need to reverse the aartuments - if you dont - you will mess up permissions.
[06:03] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, but its not actually a .tar file on the external hardrive just a folder i need to get all the content of the folder into the folder on my desktop
[06:04] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, i've tried that but it didnt work ?
[06:04] <jacopoexchange> hey, is there a way i can remove the dependences i'm not using anymore?
[06:04] <tritium> onkarshinde: those are only _major_ bug fixes
[06:04] <neutrinomass> Warbo: In what package is the firmware? ueagle-atm-data or something ?
[06:04] <dr_willis> You did it wrong ghen. :P what part dident work?
[06:04] <tritium> onkarshinde: or, security fixes
[06:04] <LjL> jacopoexchange: if you install stuff using aptitude rather than apt-get, that will be done automatically when you remove packages
[06:04] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis,  this is what i tried to use "tar lvcf - . | (cd /media/external/backup ; tar xpvf -)"
[06:04] <LjL> jacopoexchange: otherwise, try 'debfoster'
[06:04] <LjL> jacopoexchange: and 'orphaner'
[06:04] <onkarshinde> tritium: Ok. What do you think about the bug fixes in Ekiga 2.0.2 http://www.ekiga.org/
[06:04] <tritium> onkarshinde: I've not seen them
[06:04] <mattikoo> I'm trying to compile plugger and I don't get configure script throught. I got error: configure: error: Unable to find X11 libraries
[06:05] <jacopoexchange> LjL: what are those, other package managers?
[06:05] <webguy> another way of asking the same question is why doesn't apt-get install php5-mcrypt work if i see it is a package on this page http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/web/php5-mcrypt
[06:05] <onkarshinde> mattikoo: Why do you need plugger?
[06:05] <tritium> onkarshinde: and, I think they'll be in edgy in October
[06:05] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,   you need to use where the HD is at you are restoreing to. not /media/excternal/backup,     and you need to be IN /media/external/backup when you do it
[06:05] <wastrel> what's plugger?
[06:05] <mattikoo> onkarshinde: for opera
[06:05] <LjL> jacopoexchange: no, tools that help finding and removing unused dependencies. 'orphaner' is the wrong name though, try "apt-cache search ophan"
[06:05] <Codenut> where do I get a new sources.list file, I have messed mine up majorly
[06:05] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis before doing that i did this cd /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
[06:05] <NoUse> iratik then chmod 655 /usr/bin/sudo && chmod +s /usr/bin/sudo
[06:05] <onkarshinde> mattikoo: I think you need to install development packages for xorg
[06:05] <tritium> jacopoexchange: and start using aptitude.  It removed unneeded dependencies when packages that pulled them in are uninstalled.
[06:06] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  you sure it waswne 'hda1' ?
[06:06] <onkarshinde> !tell Codenut about sources
[06:06] <skydragon38> what is the name of the package for frostwire
[06:06] <jacopoexchange> LjL: i have aptitude installed ,though i didn't know it
[06:06] <jacopoexchange> i'll check it out, thanks
[06:06] <mattikoo> onkarshinde: thank you :) I'm trying get shockwave running opera too
[06:06] <bobo> Can't install AMSN on Breezy Badger... says it doesnt meet dependencies... what do I do??
[06:06] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis its working now...
[06:06] <LjL> jacopoexchange: aptitude is standard. however, it won't be any use now -- you need to use it for *installing* packages as well, otherwise the function to auto-remove dependencies won't work. i suggest you start using it for installing stuff from now on, tho
[06:06] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  :P ya had to use  hda1 ?
[06:06] <onkarshinde> bobo: Does it tell you what dependencies?
[06:06] <bobo> yeah
[06:06] <kieranDOA> Krod: im sure they do, atleast they did with me, I have them installed and i have only installed gcc/g++
[06:07] <bobo> imlibl, sox and libpng10-0
[06:07] <jacopoexchange> LjL: alright, will do
[06:07] <zxc333> Can anyone help my understand an error I get when I make install?
[06:07] <tritium> webguy: it's in universe repo.  Do you not have your sources.list setup for that?
[06:07] <onkarshinde> bobo: Can you patse your sources.list in pastebin?
[06:07] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, no just decided to work ah crap its putting everything into a folder called backup i need it just to put everything out in the  open !
[06:07] <LjL> jacopoexchange: the syntax is basically the same as apt-get: aptitude install blah, aptitude remove blah....
[06:07] <jacopoexchange> that's good
[06:07] <bobo> onkarshinde: alright
[06:08] <Spec> E: Couldn't find package blah
[06:08] <Spec> :-/
[06:08] <webguy> i guess not, how do i set that up tritium
[06:08] <tritium> !tell webguy about universe
[06:08] <Winters> hello guys
[06:08] <Winters> how is it going
[06:08] <wastrel> i!
[06:08] <Winters> may i need some hel of u
[06:08] <LjL> Spec: :-P
[06:08] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis,  i need to copy its not working !
[06:09] <neutrinomass> Where can I find a list of the packages that are on the install CD ?
[06:09] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis i try to access the backup folder in hda and it says permission denied
[06:09] <webguy> ok, i foudn that and uncommented those lines in tehe sources.list file tri
[06:09] <dr_willis> you proberly need to use root to access it
[06:09] <bobo> onkarshinde; I posted my sources.list on pastebin
[06:10] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, i dont want it to go into a folder i want it to go into hda
[06:10] <onkarshinde> bobo: URL?
[06:10] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, its copying all the fies into a folder called backup which i dont want !
[06:10] <bobo> onkarshinde: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15401
[06:11] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  hda is mounted to a directory somewhere. and its probverly 'hda1'   yoy may need to do some reading on the tar command.
[06:11] <Spec> so, umm, how do I install every package available?
[06:11] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, the mounted directory is hda2 the folder i have on the desktop is called hda im working of a live cd
[06:11] <dr_willis> Spec,  better Q. why would you want EVERY package
[06:11] <watson540> haha Spec
[06:12] <raptros-v76> Spec: its impossible
[06:12] <jonathan_> hey guys how can I use openbox as my default window manager for GNOME
[06:12] <LjL> Spec, you could edit sources.list and comment out everything but the CD, then apt-get update, then apt-cache search ""
[06:12] <jonathan_> please?
[06:12] <LjL> raptros-v76: well, it's most definitely not
[06:13] <zxc333> what does install -c -m 755 -p mean
[06:13] <LjL> raptros-v76: but then i agree it's not necessarily very useful either
[06:13] <dr_willis> jonathan_,  ya may waqnt to google the wiki/forums for detaikes on that. Id just make a new 'gnome-openbox' desktop entry for gdm myself.
[06:13] <webguy> tritium i got it working thanks!
[06:13] <wastrel> !openbox
[06:13] <ubotu> hmm... openbox is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Openbox
[06:13] <onkarshinde> bobo: Uncomment the line debhttp://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntubreezyuniverse
[06:13] <phoenixofcha0s> trippeh, are you the guy who helped me before ?
[06:14] <Codenut> That pastebin is just way too coool!!!!
[06:14] <Crescendo> How to install SSH server?
[06:14] <dr_willis> !ssh
[06:14] <ubotu> hmm... ssh is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdvancedOpenSSH
[06:14] <onkarshinde> bobo: Also the line debhttp://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntubreezymainrestricted
[06:14] <Crescendo> No gui,.
[06:14] <raptros-v76> LjL: no, its literaly impossible to install literally every package. its called conflicts.
[06:14] <orbin> Crescendo: w3m <url>
[06:15] <b0ef> my friend is running the livecd (6.06) and using synaptic; he is trying to find clamav, but the search turns up nothing
[06:15] <jonathan_> HEY GUYS, in gnome, how do I find the 'run' dialog, where I can type in the name of a program and it runs it
[06:15] <LjL> raptros-v76: true. although i'm not sure the CD would contain conflicting packages
[06:15] <anakiki252> hello everyone... sorry if my question is too specific, but has anyone tried to install NS2 (network simulator 2) on dapper?
[06:15] <raptros-v76> LjL: but the packages on  the cd will be outdated
[06:15] <orbin> b0ef: clamav is in universe
[06:15] <orbin> ubotu: tell b0ef about universe
[06:15] <onkarshinde> b0ef: I guess clamav is in universe and universe is not enabled by default
[06:16] <LjL> raptros-v76: guess so, but then i think he was only asking about the cd packages
[06:16] <orbin> jonathan_: alt+f2
[06:16] <Kibou> where do I set HISTCONTROL systemwide?
[06:16] <b0ef> orbin: right, thanks
[06:16] <jonathan_> orbin, doesn't work :(
[06:16] <Winters> could any body help me to configurate mi wifi card in the laptop??? Please i dont know what to do im desesperated to make it run!!!!
[06:16] <orbin> jonathan_: you running gnome?
[06:16] <jonathan_> orbin, yeah i promise!
[06:16] <jonathan_> I pressed it a million times lol
[06:16] <orbin> lol
[06:16] <raptros-v76> my lag was really high right there.
[06:17] <jonathan_> I read that it was alt+f2 on a forum too
[06:17] <ana> hola soy ana 18
[06:17] <jonathan_> orbin, is there any other way to reach that dialog?
[06:17] <LjL> !es

[06:18] <ana> de espaa
[06:18] <neutrinomass> daqing: Did you install the "server" or is that you get some error from the X server ?
[06:18] <daqing> no
[06:18] <Winters> yes i have tow
[06:18] <orbin> jonathan_: check what key combo is assigned in k/b shortcuts

[06:19] <Cin> Well, my RAM passes with memtest, I "sorted" my xorg.conf... and it still crashes. :(
[06:19] <orbin> wastrel: i dunno, pretty cool  to ust fire and forget
[06:19] <b0ef> orbin: does he need to install ubuntu to enable universe repositories?
[06:19] <orbin> s/ust/just

[06:19] <orbin> b0ef: afaik, yes.
[06:19] <Kibou> anyone know how to set HISTCONTROL globally?
[06:19] <daqing> my problem is
[06:20] <Warbo> daqing: Hmmm. Have you got some brand new hardware which Ubuntu might not know about?
[06:20] <b0ef> orbin: is there no way to install an application when running the live cd?
[06:20] <Winters> are u there Okarshinde
[06:20] <LjL> b0ef: yes, there is. just install it, and it will work. not sure about adding universe
[06:20] <daqing> i think no

[06:21] <orbin> ana: por favor usen #ubuntu-es
[06:21] <onkarshinde> Winters: No problem
[06:22] <lploisirs> hello
[06:22] <wastrel> daqing - you speak chinese?
[06:22] <daqing> yes
[06:22] <Winters> ok
[06:22] <lploisirs> I have a little question
[06:22] <daqing> i am from china
[06:22] <lploisirs> I want to install the nvidia driver but for that I have to stop the x server
[06:22] <wastrel> #ubuntu-cn
[06:22] <anakiki252> ok... does anyone tried to install libc6_2.3.5-1ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>_i386.deb on dapper?
[06:22] <lploisirs> when I do a kill X, X stop and immediatly restart
[06:22] <Some_Person> HELP ME I CANT REFRESH MY REPOSITORIES I WAS TRYING TO ADD THE UBUNTU CD HELP ME
[06:22] <onkarshinde> lploisirs: who says so?
[06:22] <lploisirs> How to really stop X ?
[06:22] <raptros-v76> lploisirs: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[06:22] <anakiki252> anyone greek here?
[06:22] <Warbo> daqing: OK, so the graphics are coming up? That's good. Basically there are three main drivers. vesa works on anything, but is very slow. Then you have free drivers (which Ubuntu uses) which are better, but still slow. Then you have non-free drivers (which you have to add yourself) which may fix your problem
[06:22] <LjL> lploisirs: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[06:22] <raptros-v76> Some_Person: sudo apt-get update
[06:22] <LjL> lploisirs: then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start to restart it
[06:23] <lploisirs> LjL: I tried that and nothing happens
[06:23] <orbin> LjL: too fast :P
[06:23] <rob_p> Kibou:  You can probably set that in /etc/bash.bashrc and it'll apply globally.
[06:23] <raptros-v76> lploisirs: ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[06:23] <wastrel> daqing:  #ubuntu-cn
[06:23] <raptros-v76> trust me on this
[06:23] <ksaad> hello, i have a question
[06:23] <Warbo> daqing: Do you know what company made your graphics card?
[06:23] <lploisirs> onkarshinde: THe Nvidia driver said that I have to stop it, I will try ctrl+alt+backpsace
[06:23] <lploisirs> thank a lot
[06:23] <ksaad> how can i setup speedtouch modem in ubuntu?
[06:23] <Warbo> !speedtouch
[06:23] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Warbo
[06:24] <Warbo> dammit
[06:24] <LjL> lploisirs: ctrl+alt+backspace will stop it *and* immediately restart it. however, i think that's quite sufficient for getting the driver to work
[06:24] <Kibou> rob_p, I see.. I think I tried that already will try again.. brb
[06:24] <ksaad> yeah, speedtouch
[06:24] <Winters> onkarshinde: are u there sir, the problem is that i have start to use linux and i have left windows so now i need to configurate my laptop wifi
[06:24] <daqing> yes ,it is sis
[06:24] <Warbo> ksaad: There is a page on wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem
[06:24] <ksaad> any iea how to set it up?
[06:24] <b0ef> orbin: ok, I see; he says he can install it, but he cannot find how to do it;), (sorry)
[06:24] <Winters> but i dont have such an idea how to do it
[06:24] <ksaad> hmmm
[06:24] <ksaad> thank you
[06:24] <Some_Person> warbo: google it then add it to ubotu!
[06:24] <lploisirs> LjL: you're right, it restart immediatly, but I don't have enough time to launch the driver installation
[06:24] <Winters> i may need some hgelp to configurate it
[06:24] <b0ef> hmm, he found it
[06:24] <onkarshinde> Winters: Yes. But to get it working you need to provide some details.
[06:24] <LjL> lploisirs: you can install the driver while X is running
[06:24] <Tykan> any help with Wine error saying "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" while trying to compilate wine version for WoW?
[06:25] <Winters> ok
[06:25] <Warbo> Some_Person: I would prefer to make some sort of !eagleusb (because I wrote a wiki page on that today)
[06:25] <Winters> im speaking with u in private do u copy me sir
[06:25] <Winters> ?
[06:25] <daqing> Warbo: my driver patten is sis 650
[06:25] <LjL> Tykan: do you have build-essential installed?
[06:25] <neutrinomass> Warbo: Is the stuff in ueagle-atm-utils *neccessary* ?
[06:25] <Tykan> first time using Ubntu or Linux... no idea on what that is
[06:25] <Warbo> daqing: I do not have much experience with sis cards sorry. I don't know if there is a faster driver
[06:25] <wastrel> hi Tykan
[06:25] <onkarshinde> Winters: No. I didn't get any message
[06:26] <LjL> Tykan: then type "sudo aptitude install build-essential", that should get you a working GCC
[06:26] <Warbo> neutrinomass: I don't know as I haven't set up that driver yet
[06:26] <johnnybong> hi Tykan
[06:26] <_Terry> hey guys
[06:26] <Scorpmoon> i like the way when you go up from a directory, the last visited dir is highlighted
[06:26] <neutrinomass> Warbo: Ok, thanks :)
[06:26] <Some_Person> just use "ubotu: whatever is whatever u want it to say"
[06:26] <Tykan> hello all =) gonna try that LjL
[06:26] <Scorpmoon> i was so stupid I called my username and the computer name (domain name) the same
[06:26] <Scorpmoon> is the home directory named after the username?
[06:26] <spikeb> yup Scorpmoon
[06:26] <_Spire_> Scorpmoon: yes
[06:26] <Warbo> neutrinomass: I want to install a BSD soon, so I can check it out on there without screwing up my eagle-usb
[06:26] <Winters> van u sent me the private maybe im not doing right
[06:26] <_Terry> ok going from this process: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1085375#post1085375
[06:26] <neutrinomass> Warbo: I'm asking because we have to put some pressure for CD inclusion and there's hardly any space on it :(
[06:26] <_Terry> to this process: lilo -v -r /mnt
[06:26] <Some_Person> Err http://security.ubuntu.com breezy-security Release.gpg
[06:26] <phoenixofcha0s> can somebody please tell me how to copy files using terminal
[06:26] <_Terry> is something missing there?
[06:27] <_Spire_> phoenixofcha0s:
[06:27] <_Terry> because I get a bash:lilo command not found error
[06:27] <_Spire_> oops
[06:27] <wastrel> !tell phoenixofcha0s about cli
[06:27] <LjL> phoenixofcha0s: "cp <source> <destination>"

[06:27] <Tykan> LjL can i PM you?
[06:27] <phoenixofcha0s> I need to have super priveledges thoe
[06:27] <Scorpmoon> in windows (sorry, i mean the w word) when you change username, you get a whole Documents dir just taking up space.. is it painless to change my username and/or hostname in ubuntu?
[06:27] <lploisir1> LjL: sorry for the deconnection
[06:27] <_Spire_> phoenixofcha0s: 'cp file1 destination'
[06:27] <LjL> tykan: yes
[06:27] <phoenixofcha0s> ok
[06:27] <orbin> phoenixofcha0s:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands
[06:28] <lploisir1> LjL: the Nvidia driver said that : 'It appears that you have a X server running, please exit X before running"
[06:28] <onkarshinde> Winters: Check wiki.ubuntu.com You can find at least some info about your laptop or wireless card. I have to go now.
[06:28] <Winters> ok than k u then bye
[06:28] <Some_Person> the w word? lol
[06:28] <Spec> apt-cache search ''|awk {'print $1'}|xargs -n1 apt-get install | yes

[06:28] <phoenixofcha0s> cp: omitting directory `/media/EXTERNAL/backup/'
[06:28] <LjL> lploisir1: uhm, what procedure were you following again?
[06:28] <graveson> is there any documentatation for configring DVB's -if so where can i find it
[06:29] <Scorpmoon> where are you supposed to put your own files in the filesystem.. that is, mp3's photos, and the likes?
[06:29] <Scorpmoon> in home dir?
[06:29] <LjL> Scorpmoon: yes
[06:29] <Scorpmoon> k
[06:29] <lploisir1> LjL: I had downloader the .run from nvidia website
[06:29] <johnnybong> graveson: what do you want to do?
[06:29] <_Terry> who here has a macbook pro
[06:29] <_Terry> ?
[06:29] <Warbo> neutrinomass: I agree that there will have to be a switchover soon, but many people may have broken packages on their current CDs (I will include a link to the latest ones on the Wiki if this is fixed, then people with old CDs can still install the working packages.) To be honest I am quite interestedin ueagle-atm, so I will try it out when I am next at my Dad's house (he has sagem modem, but I will try it on MY system first,
[06:29] <phoenixofcha0s> when i use CP I GET THIS ERROR !!!!!! cp: omitting directory `/media/EXTERNAL/backup/'
[06:29] <phoenixofcha0s> can someone help for the love of god !
[06:29] <LjL> lploisir1: uhm, but, why not just try installing nvidia-glx, i think that's the most correct way
[06:29] <_Terry> im trying to triple boot but not having any success
[06:29] <_Spire_> phoenixofcha0s: if you're copying directories, you have to use 'cp -a'
[06:29] <phoenixofcha0s> ok
[06:30] <wastrel> sigh
[06:30] <Warbo> _Terry: Are you using elilo as a bootloader (that is as far as my knowledge goes, sorry :()
[06:30] <lploisir1> LjL: I would like to use the twinview option from nvidia driver, does those nvidia-glx drivar have this option ?
[06:30] <LjL> lploisir1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[06:30] <graveson> johnnybong: mythtv ,but i need to get the DVB working , if you can provide me some ideas it would help
[06:30] <_Spire_> phoenixofcha0s: if the source or the destination directory is owned by root, you have to use 'sudo cp'
[06:30] <lploisir1> LjL: I'm going to read that thanks
[06:30] <LjL> lploisir1: i wouldn't know that. but AFAIK it's the same driver as the one from nvidia, just packaged for Ubuntu. perhaps a slightly older version.
[06:30] <phoenixofcha0s> um
[06:30] <_Terry> elilo froze the installer, so I used the LiveCD to download and (attempt anyhow) to install regular lilo
[06:30] <Warbo> !ubotu
[06:30] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
[06:31] <Tross> How am i suppose to change to swedish characters on Xchat?
[06:31] <phoenixofcha0s> how can i visually see what is happening ?
[06:31] <_Terry> but after extracting and copying it, and running the commands I said above
[06:31] <Warbo> _Terry: Regular lilo cannot use EFI (what Intel Macs use to boot)
[06:31] <_Terry> it gives me a bash: lilo command not found error
[06:31] <_Terry> warbo intel macs use emulated legacy bios'
[06:31] <_absolution_> how do you switch to root
[06:31] <_absolution_> ????
[06:31] <LjL> lploisir1: note that among all the things it tells you to install, you probably only need to "sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx"
[06:31] <_Terry> the bootloader gets installed to the same partition linux is installed on
[06:32] <johnnybong> graveson: ok, i did this last week. try this guide: http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_ubuntu.php
[06:32] <jnieto> jnieto
[06:32] <Warbo> _Terry: Do they? Well now I have even less respect for Apple (really, BIOS would not exist if Windows was gone)
[06:32] <_absolution_> i've tried "su"
[06:32] <Tross> Anyone who knows?
[06:32] <phoenixofcha0s> USING CP, how do I copy everything within a folder instead of copying the folder ?
[06:32] <_absolution_> in the terminal....and typed in the password....nothing
[06:32] <_Terry> I kind of like BIOS better. I dont like the fact that I can't configure an EFI password for my mac
[06:32] <graveson> johnnybong: is mythtv worth the time,my firends ae raving about it
[06:32] <jhaa> phoenixofcha0s cp /from /where -R
[06:32] <jhaa> man cp
[06:32] <phoenixofcha0s> thanks !
[06:32] <_Terry> where as with my PC I can create a BIOS password locking the system out
[06:33] <nik> hi
[06:33] <_Terry> unless theres something I dont know
[06:33] <troy_s> _terry:  pop the batter
[06:33] <phoenixofcha0s> and how can i make it so that it shows what files its copying
[06:33] <phoenixofcha0s> like a visual thing
[06:33] <troy_s> _terry:  your bios password is gone
[06:33] <phoenixofcha0s> what its up to or something ?
[06:33] <_Terry> try it troy , you'll think otherwise :)
[06:33] <nik> adept crashed and the apt system is (b)locked...any hint?
[06:33] <wiggieXpectsLess> Q: I want to upgrade from breezy to dapper. what are the possibilities that  I will lose all my music, videos, pics and document? Can I do the wiki-type upgrade or should I install a fresh copy?
[06:33] <phoenixofcha0s> current file its doing
[06:33] <orbin> phoenixofcha0s: -v for verbose
[06:33] <johnnybong> graveson: it can be a pig to set up, but worth it if you want all of the PVR functionality. If you just want to watch Digital TV, you can use Xine to do that, and it works very well.
[06:33] <phoenixofcha0s> thanks :D
[06:33] <troy_s> _terry:  had to do it a few times.  you need to flash the bios.  it does it every time.
[06:33] <Crescendo> Speaking Ubuntu on a Mac...   how would I go about having it automatically restore power after a blackout?
[06:33] <_Spire_> phoenixofcha0s: 'cp -v' shows what it's copying
[06:33] <_Terry> maybe on your system, not on mine.
[06:33] <troy_s> _terry:  the only persistant way is to write to disk.
[06:34] <troy_s> _terry:  you are hitting the jumpers right?  ;)
[06:34] <_absolution_> i've upgraded...yesterday.....didn't lose anything
[06:34] <phoenixofcha0s> so sudo cp -Rv is correct ?
[06:34] <StyXman> hi all. I'm about to install a dhcp3-server, but I would like to do it without bringing it up yet. is there a way to tell the instalation process to not to bvring up the service?
[06:34] <troy_s> _terry:  it does it on all of them :)
[06:34] <_absolution_> can't log into root though
[06:34] <_Terry> i'm pretty sure it doesnt lol
[06:34] <troy_s> _terry:  you are mistaken
[06:34] <orbin> phoenixofcha0s: think so yes
[06:34] <_Terry> especially the new ones, that are stored to an eeprom
[06:34] <wiggieXpectsLess> root? i thought sudo was the root
[06:34] <Svigi_wlan> styxman: if I remember well it will not bring up after installing
[06:34] <_Terry> i dont think jumpers overwrite those heh
[06:34] <Svigi_wlan> it warns you to set in /etc/default/dhcpd
[06:34] <LjL> wiggieXpectsLess: unless you enable root manually.
[06:34] <StyXman> Svigi_wlan: ah, nice
[06:35] <Warbo> If I want to add a factoid to ubotu, do I put the factoid in quotes or something (Wiki is not clear)
[06:35] <Svigi_wlan> and the dhcpd.conf
[06:35] <wiggieXpectsLess> ok
[06:35] <troy_s> _terry:  there is always a rewrite.  remove battery, reset via jumper / etc.  done.
[06:35] <Svigi_wlan> try it
[06:35] <phoenixofcha0s> exelent
[06:35] <wiggieXpectsLess> so I can update and not worry?
[06:35] <ic56> l
[06:35] <troy_s> warbo:  ask ubotu
[06:35] <gizmo_the_great1> I am desperate...my screen flickers\ripples whenever I play 3D games. I have nvidia drivers installed, fast writes and SBA enabled. I am baffled.
[06:35] <troy_s> warbo:  he will give you the syntax
[06:35] <orbin> Warbo: no need for quotes
[06:35] <_absolution_> not sure
[06:35] <phoenixofcha0s> using CP
[06:35] <orbin> Warbo: blah is whatever
[06:35] <_absolution_> I didn't lose anything
[06:35] <phoenixofcha0s> how do i copy files within a directory
[06:35] <_Terry> removing the battery doesn't reset anything but the clock. Resetting the CMOS jumper only sets the BIOS to fail safe defaults. Passwords are still intact
[06:36] <phoenixofcha0s> and then put them in a differnt directory without copyuing the folder ?
[06:36] <gizmo_the_great1> phoenixofcha0s: cp or mv i think
[06:36] <wiggieXpectsLess>  well i'll update anyways... see what happens
[06:36] <_Terry> at least thats how mine runs
[06:36] <Frogzoo> phoenixofcha0s: cp  dir1/dir2/filename  but I don't think that was your question?
[06:36] <phoenixofcha0s> Frogzoo, well im using this sudo cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/ /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
[06:36] <_Spire_> phoenixofcha0s: if you want to move the directory, use 'mv'
[06:37] <_Terry> and I love the hard drive lock features these new BIOS' come with too
[06:37] <phoenixofcha0s> Frogzoo, and its making a backup folder in hda I dont want that i want to copy the files within
[06:37] <_Terry> hard lock the HDD
[06:37] <daqing> hello,i have an integrated graphic
[06:37] <Warbo> ubotu eagleusb is USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 need the eagle-usb driver. The current packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb
[06:37] <ubotu> okay, Warbo
[06:37] <Warbo> !eagleusb
[06:37] <ubotu> it has been said that eagleusb is USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 need the eagle-usb driver. The current packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb
[06:37] <Warbo> Hmmm. Almost :)
[06:37] <phoenixofcha0s> _Spire_ i want the files within the folder i dont want the actual folder
[06:37] <Fjodor> Does anyone know, why a regular users print jobs seem to go to the manual feed of the printer?
[06:38] <Frogzoo> phoenixofcha0s:  cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/* /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
[06:38] <rob_p> Kibou:  Did it work?
[06:38] <daqing> but it seems that the driver has not yet been installed
[06:38] <phoenixofcha0s> thanks :D
[06:38] <_Spire_> phoenixofcha0s: oh!
[06:38] <_Spire_> phoenixofcha0s: what he said ^^
[06:38] <steve_> anyone having issues with firestarter in dapper?
[06:38] <Tross_> Where can i get swedish characters? Im using Xchat?
[06:38] <nik> how to remove "lvm2" without removing ubuntu-base?
[06:38] <Kibou> rob_p: I'm an idiot.. i didn't see that ubuntu comes with a full .bashrc in the home dir so HISTCONTROL always was exported after the global config files
[06:38] <_Terry> is there anyone here that has ubuntu running on a mac?
[06:38] <_Terry> (intel based)
[06:38] <Warbo> ubotu eagleusb is for USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 which need the eagle-usb driver. The current eagle-usb packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb
[06:38] <ubotu> ...but eagleusb is already something else...
[06:38] <Warbo> ubotu forget eagleusb
[06:38] <ubotu> Warbo: i forgot eagleusb
[06:39] <gizmo_the_great1> I am desperate...my screen flickers\ripples whenever I play 3D games. I have nvidia drivers installed, fast writes and SBA enabled. I am baffled.
[06:39] <Kibou> I guess it gets copied from /etc/skel when an account gets created
[06:39] <Warbo> ubotu eagleusb is for USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 which need the eagle-usb driver. The current eagle-usb packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb
[06:39] <steve_> when I click on firestarter on the menu no window shows
[06:39] <phoenixofcha0s> Frogzoo, _Spire_ its still doing the same thing making a folder called backup i dont want that
[06:39] <rob_p> Kibou:  I think it's commented out by default though.
[06:39] <phoenixofcha0s> i want the files IN backup to be put in hda
[06:39] <steve_> anyone else have similar/
[06:39] <Warbo> !eagleusb
[06:39] <ubotu> Warbo: My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:39] <phoenixofcha0s> I dont want the actual folder backup
[06:39] <Frogzoo> phoenixofcha0s:  cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/* /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
[06:39] <neutrinomass> Warbo: Great work on that guide btw, seems thorough :)
[06:39] <rob_p> Kibou:  At least on a default install of Breezy on the first user account...
[06:40] <phoenixofcha0s> Frogzoo, i tried that
[06:40] <Warbo> ubotu eagleusb is for USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 which need the eagle-usb driver. The current eagle-usb packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb
[06:40] <ubotu> okay, Warbo
[06:40] <Warbo> !eagleusb
[06:40] <rob_p> Kibou:  Anyhow, looks like you got it figured out. :-)
[06:40] <Warbo> AA! ubotu's time limits!
[06:40] <Kibou> yea..
[06:40] <Kibou> works now
[06:40] <ic56> Warbo: what's your problem with ubotu?
[06:41] <Afief> I am having problems using maxima, it used to work find in breezy, in dapper it just doesn't function\
[06:41] <phoenixofcha0s> Frogzoo, its still copying all the files to a folder called backup
[06:41] <Warbo> neutrinomass: I got a GAIM window open when a mate wanted to know how to start the driver at boot (after I already gave him a guide on how to install it) so I thought I'd write something official (since the ueagle-atm page only has an introduction at the moment)
[06:41] <Warbo> ic56: Doesn't matter
[06:41] <Warbo> !eagleusb
[06:41] <ubotu> rumour has it, eagleusb is for USB modems like the Sagem F@st800 which need the eagle-usb driver. The current eagle-usb packages are broken, but the driver can be installed with this guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem/EagleUsb
[06:41] <phoenixofcha0s> _Spire_ ??
[06:42] <phoenixofcha0s> Frogzoo ?? :(
[06:42] <Tross_> Please? how am i supose to do?
[06:42] <neutrinomass> Warbo: Yes, I want to get round to documenting the procedure for Accessrunners as well ...
[06:42] <Warbo> yay (but F@st800 isn't an email :))
[06:42] <gizmo_the_great1> can any1 tell me some diagnostic tools or commands to diagnose issues with 3D (other than glxgears and  cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status?)
[06:42] <ic56> Warbo: why don't you talk to ubotu through private messages?
[06:42] <Warbo> ic56: It's done now
[06:43] <Warbo> neutrinomass: I would document my other modem, but it is ethernet, so plug 'n' play :)
[06:43] <johnnybong> gizmo_the_great1: try 'glxinfo' in a terminal. also, are you getting the nVidia splash screen when X starts?
[06:44] <phoenixofcha0s> GRRRRRRRRRr
[06:44] <benkong2> how do I change the gdm greeter in dapper?
[06:44] <phoenixofcha0s> THis is annoying
[06:44] <phoenixofcha0s> I awnt to copy files within a folder and put them in another directory without copying the actual folder !
[06:44] <phoenixofcha0s>  cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/* /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda that is not working !
[06:44] <Warbo> benkong2: There is an option in System>Administration>Login Screen
[06:44] <gizmo_the_great1> johnnybong: splash screen - yes. glxinfo - already tried but I not sure what bits would reveal problems with 3d - what to look for?
[06:45] <benkong2> Warbo: thanks
[06:45] <Warbo> Login Window, sorry
[06:45] <uglymonke> hi all! need help: i tried apt-get for k7-smp kernel but i cant get internet acess on http och ping any more. not with new or old kernel. writing this mess from stoopid-xp. any ideas?
[06:45] <Kibou> rob_p: another question. does bash.bashrc get sourced before or after /etc/profile?
[06:45] <ic56> phoenixofchaOs: please name the intended source and target directories.
[06:45] <Warbo> uglymonke: Did you install your modem drivers from source (so your new kernel doesn't have them)?
[06:46] <Jemt> uglymonke: Running DHCP ?
[06:46] <Jemt> uglymonke: Is your network card listed in 'ifconfig -a' ?
[06:46] <uglymonke> Jemt/Warbo: static ip - on ifconfig my static addr shows up
[06:46] <bjron> hey, anyone know how set the directory that something is launched from when you create a launcher for the panel?
[06:47] <phoenixofcha0s> can somebody please help me :'(
[06:47] <Jemt> uglymonke: Can you ping your gateway ?
[06:47] <ic56> phoenixofchaOs: please tell us the intended source and target directories.
[06:47] <johnnybong> gizmo_the_great: hmm, might be worth checking that direct rendering is 'on'; otherwise, just checking vendor strings, etc.
[06:47] <phoenixofcha0s> I want to get the files within a folder, and put them in a differnet directory this is not working sudo  cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/* /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
[06:47] <Warbo> bjron: You would have to make a simple script which "cd"s to the right directory then runs the app
[06:47] <uglymonke> Jemt/Warbo: but no rx/tx of bytes.. ah is that the 255.255.... ?
[06:47] <Sojourner> Hello, I am having problems with my sound quality being exceptionally low, can anyone remedy my situation?
[06:47] <phoenixofcha0s> what that is doing is, making another folder called backup which is not what i want !
[06:48] <eugman> !parentalcontrols
[06:48] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, eugman
[06:48] <Jemt> uglymonke: 255... is your submask
[06:48] <Jemt> uglymonke: Can you ping your gateway ?
[06:48] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  you dont want to use 'cp' that will mess up all your permissions and so forth.
[06:48] <Warbo> bjron: just put "#!/bin/bash" as the top line (with no quotes) and the rest of the script as whatever you type in a terminal to get the program up (that includes cd and stuff). Then make it executable and make your launcher execute the script
[06:48] <yuheng108> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
[06:48] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis what do i use then !
[06:49] <ic56> phoenixofchaOs: please name the intended source and target directories.
[06:49] <phoenixofcha0s>  cp -Rv /media/EXTERNAL/backup/* /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda
[06:49] <eugman> Come on ubotu, you really need to get something on parental controls
[06:49] <Sojourner> hello, i am having a problem with my sound quality, can anyone help?
[06:49] <uglymonke> Jemt/Warbo: (im in xp now) if i can ping then where is the error?
[06:49] <johnnybong> gotta go now!
[06:49] <phoenixofcha0s> i want the files in backup to be put in hda but not in a backup folder in hda that make sense ?
[06:49] <Jemt> Not easy to help you when you are not in Ubuntu
[06:49] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  the correct tar commands like you had easlier with the proper options.   It may be worth the errort to fine a HOWTO on backing/up/restoreing a hard drive using tar
[06:49] <bjron> Warbo: thanks,  I was afraid that might be the only way (not that it's all that difficult, but seems like there should be that functionality directly in the launcher properties).  ;p
[06:50] <Warbo> uglymonke: Sorry, I am useless at networking, but I have installed a few kernel modules in my time
[06:50] <phoenixofcha0s> ok fine fine how do i move
[06:50] <phoenixofcha0s> move files
[06:50] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  if the files get copied to the hd. you could then 'mv' them up  one directory. But still i bet you will have to do some tweaking/fixing to get a working system
[06:50] <uglymonke> Jemt: not easy to get your help when im in ubuntu at the time being :)
[06:50] <eugman> !gibberish
[06:50] <Jemt> uglymonke: I would first check that the network card is present (ifconfig -a), that it is configured, that you can ping the gateway. One of these steps probably fails
[06:50] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, eugman
[06:50] <caepc> how in the heck can i install the newest kernel in 5.10 without breaking everything
[06:50] <Jemt> uglymonke: True :)
[06:50] <simonpca> re
[06:50] <opitwin> do you need something simonpca
[06:50] <phoenixofcha0s> ah awseome ill just do that then !
[06:50] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  its best to just backuo your homedir and do a reinstall.
[06:50] <Warbo> bjron: That is only really needed for commercial applications (I'm guessing that's what you want it for) so there is no real need to add it to the Launcher dialog
[06:50] <yuheng108> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
[06:51] <ic56> phoenixofchaOs: the cp command you are listing should work.  Don't forget the star at the of backup/*
[06:51] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, thats far to late.
[06:51] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  or use a dedicated backup program like mondo/mindi, or other similer program
[06:51] <simonpca> opitwin: hmm, not, why?
[06:51] <uglymonke> Jemt: first step works. i tried it. if second step fails where shoul i look for answer?
[06:51] <gizmo_the_great1> can any1 tell me some diagnostic tools or commands to diagnose issues with 3D (other than glxgears, glxinfo, and  cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status?) . Fast writes, SBA and direct rendering all enabled. But I still having problems.
[06:51] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  if your homedir is in that backed up dir.. its still there..
[06:51] <Toge> hellow, how can i change the dns manually? what file?
[06:51] <bobo> how do I update GAIM w/ apt-get?
[06:51] <opitwin> simonpca: just wondering
[06:51] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, i needed to make a windows partion and i had to delete everything
[06:51] <simonpca> bobo: sudo apt-get install gaim
[06:52] <yuheng108> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
[06:52] <Warbo> bobo: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gaim
[06:52] <johnsie> Hi... if i chnage my graphics card how do I configure x to use it?
[06:52] <phoenixofcha0s> so i moved all my files over
[06:52] <phoenixofcha0s> and yeah
[06:52] <gnomefreak> bobo: if you mean gaim2 beta its a bit harder than that
[06:52] <Jemt> uglymonke: No idea. Could be a driver issue - havn't experienced any such problems with Ubuntu. It has quite a large database of drivers. Do you know what chipset your card is based on ?
[06:52] <bjron> Warbo, why only needed for commerial apps?
[06:52] <opitwin> simonpca: Do you know anything about Kubuntu?
[06:52] <Jemt> uglymonke: SIS is known to be very Windows-only
[06:52] <gizmo_the_great1> johnsie: what graphics card you got?
[06:52] <simonpca> opitwin: in fact, I need to have 300 Mo free on my / :D
[06:52] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, after everything is copied, how do i move it up a directory if its in /home/ubuntu/Desktop/hda/backup
[06:52] <simonpca> opitwin: a liitle, i've installed it
[06:52] <eugman> Anyone know of a good howto for setting up dansguardian and some proxy
[06:52] <johnsie> Not sure what one it is
[06:52] <opitwin> simonpca: Does it work as well as Ubuntu?
[06:53] <uglymonke> Jemt: nforce4 but internet was working before - htts how i got the new kernel :)
[06:53] <simonpca> opitwin: yeah!
[06:53] <simonpca> i uninstalled KDE
[06:53] <simonpca> to make some roomo
[06:53] <Jemt> uglymonke: Ohh, I see
[06:53] <simonpca> room*
[06:53] <dr_willis> mv * ..  perhaps.. but that may also mess up your permissions
[06:53] <mattikoo> I tried to configure plugger for opera. And I got error message configure: error: Unable to find X11 libraries. I tried install different libraries and dev-packages, but It doesn't help me.
[06:53] <Warbo> bjron: Usually commercial apps (like ones I use) need to be run from their directory (so they can be generic for any distro), but FLOSS programs can be changed and packaged by distro maintainers to put binaries in $PATH so no folder is needed
[06:53] <Jemt> uglymonke: Why are you messing with the kernel ?
[06:53] <meherenOS-X> is there a program that allows me to convert .ico files to .png files (putting each different layer of the .ico into a different .png)
[06:53] <opitwin> simonpca: I don't like KDE very much either
[06:53] <simonpca> opitwin: very stable; but at my taste gnome is more "productive"
[06:54] <Pupeno> How do I make Evolution show the mails threaded ?
[06:54] <johnsie> is there like some kind of terminal diagnosis tool i can use to check for a graphics card
[06:54] <johnsie> ?
[06:54] <opitwin> simonpca: I really like gnome
[06:54] <simonpca> opitwin: yeah, me too :)
[06:54] <simonpca> XFCE seems to be nice too
[06:54] <JeezGodDamnit> xfce rules
[06:54] <spikeb> xfce is kind of like mini-gnome in many ways
[06:54] <Jemt> meherenOS-X: I think 'magick' is what your are looking for
[06:54] <ic56> phoenixofchaOs: do you mean you are trying to copy your entire root filesystem?  cp won't do that right.
[06:54] <Jemt> !magick
[06:54] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Jemt
[06:54] <wsjunior> is anybody noticing synaptics touchpad kinda crazy?
[06:54] <meherenOS-X> ok thx
[06:54] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  what is your exact 'restore' command you are doing?
[06:55] <Jemt> BRB
[06:55] <phoenixofcha0s> omfg
[06:55] <opitwin> simonpca: What is xfce?
[06:55] <meherenOS-X> jemt and i can install by and apt-get magick right?
[06:55] <uglymonke> Jemt: messing :) ? i found tips on how to speed ubu and kernel choice was one-- everyone else on the thread seemed to have 0 probs...
[06:55] <gnomefreak> JeezGodDamnit: please change you nick
[06:55] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_wilis, im the biggest noob ever, there is actual folder called backup in the folders that need copying
[06:55] <phoenixofcha0s> haha my bad
[06:55] <usuario> hola
[06:55] <simonpca> opitwin: another WM like gnome and KDE;
[06:55] <Warbo> opitwin: It is an alternative desktop environment (smaller, works on older computers)
[06:55] <simonpca> !tell opitwin about xfce
[06:55] <usuario> hkogo
[06:55] <usuario> quetal
[06:56] <wastrel> !es
[06:56] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[06:56] <usuario> quee+
[06:56] <iiiears> Installing Quicktime. What do you do next?   make: *** No rule to make target `i686', needed by `all'.  Stop.
[06:56] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  Linux tip #1 - "THINK" :P
[06:56] <opitwin> simonpca: is it just like gnome?
[06:56] <bobo> what's the shortcut for the terminal?
[06:56] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, after its copied i need to trick it with chroot
[06:56] <simonpca> opitwin: not really
[06:56] <usuario> holka
[06:56] <Shaezsche> how can i add events to my etc/acpi/event directory? i keep getting "permission denied"
[06:56] <phoenixofcha0s> then do something with grub ?
[06:56] <Warbo> iiiears: Sounds like you need to fix some source :)
[06:56] <simonpca> i plan to test it soon
[06:56] <opitwin> simonpca: Is that what Xubuntu runs?
[06:56] <simonpca> opitwin: yeah :D
[06:56] <dr_willis> phoenixofcha0s,  yep. if you are lucky thats all it will need. :P
[06:56] <iiiears> Warbo - lol - NVM then - hahaha
[06:56] <Warbo> bobo: alt-f2
[06:57] <Equin> How would I disallow a user access to any folder but his homefolder?
[06:57] <phoenixofcha0s> dr_willis, i need to change the grub thing after
[06:57] <iiiears> Warbo - Thank You. :)
[06:57] <phoenixofcha0s> so i can dual boot
[06:57] <bobo> Warbo,  thanks
[06:57] <johnsie> How do i configure X from the terminal?
[06:57] <Warbo> iiiears: Try "make i686". If it fails then it is broken
[06:57] <wsjunior> im experiencing problems with my synaptics touchpad, its kinda crazy.. i cant keep the control over it..
[06:57] <opitwin> simonpca: I've ordered the CD's so that I can try them all
[06:57] <wsjunior> should i configure something to get it working normally?
[06:57] <iiiears> Warbo - Good, I will try that then.
[06:57] <simonpca> opitwin: mee too :)
[06:57] <Warbo> johnsie: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:58] <Shaezsche> how can i add events to my etc/acpi/event directory? i keep getting "permission denied"
[06:58] <llpamies> How can I break a loop in ADA ?
[06:58] <Shaezsche> i am trying to bind hotkeys
[06:58] <phoenixofcha0s> can everyone please comment on my current progress with www.blindstream.net/V2/testingserver/
[06:58] <Warbo> Shaezsche: You need to use "sudo" before your commands
[06:58] <phoenixofcha0s> any tips ?
[06:58] <simonpca> opitwin: but from a normal ubuntu, you can try kubuntu with sudo apt-get install kde (as i did), xfce with sudo apt-get install xfce-desktop
[06:58] <johnsie> thanks
[06:58] <steve___> Anyone have any idea how to get rid of this cups error found in /var/log/cups/error_log?  -- cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found!
[06:58] <Warbo> simonpca: There is also a kubuntu-desktop instead of kde
[06:58] <ic56> Equin: what you are asking for is impractical.  Users need access at least to the folders that contain the system commands, documentation, and configuration.
[06:58] <Shaezsche> warbo its not a command. i dont know how to add events with sudo
[06:59] <simonpca> Warbo: ^^
[06:59] <simonpca> logically
[06:59] <Shaezsche> i was trying to just create a txt file with the command and put it in the directory
[06:59] <opitwin> simpca: Can I uninstall it later?
[06:59] <Jemt> uglymonke: Ah, ok. Well, I would just leave the kernel as is if I were you :)
[06:59] <Warbo> Shaezsche: Whatever program you are using, find the command to run it (the file manager is "nautilus") and put "gksudo" in front. That will give the app permission
[07:00] <phoenixofcha0s> tell all www.blindstream.net/V2/testingserver
[07:00] <Shaezsche> ok thanks
[07:00] <opitwin> simonpca: Can it be uninstalled
[07:00] <simonpca> opitwin: yeah, with sudo apt-get remove [what-you've-installed]
[07:01] <opitwin> simonpca: like sudo apt-get remove kde
[07:01] <simonpca> opitwin: exactly
[07:01] <simonpca> that's the fun side of Debian :D
[07:02] <opitwin> simonpca: Thank You, is there a list online of all the programs that I can get for Ubuntu?
[07:02] <simonpca> opitwin: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[07:02] <Warbo> opitwin: Using aptitude will make sure you don't get loads of unneeded packages installed after you remove something (KDE depends on lots of things that GNOME doesn't use)
[07:02] <simonpca> opitwin: also try with Synaptic
[07:02] <gnomefreak> opitwin: sudo apt-get remove --purge libqt3-mt    i think thats the base lib for kde
[07:02] <simonpca> opitwin: or aptitude
[07:02] <gnomefreak> that will remove all or most kde app
[07:02] <gnomefreak> s
[07:03] <simonpca> opitwin: with Synaptic all is graphical
[07:03] <Warbo> simonpca: aptitude seems to remove more stuff than Synaptic (maybe it uses deborphan or something)
[07:03] <opitwin> What HTML Editor do you guys recommend?
[07:03] <JeezGodDang> hello, im on BREEZY, can i install linux-image-2.6.15-23-386_2.6.15-23.39_i386.deb  without borking my system?  if so, how
[07:03] <Warbo> opitwin: nvu
[07:03] <Warbo> opitwin: apt-get install nvu
[07:04] <simonpca> Warbo: aptitude doesn't have the "smart" option of Synaptic
[07:04] <Warbo> simonpca: I suppose so (apt-get dist-upgrade it is then :))
[07:04] <LjL> there's aptitude dist-upgrade too
[07:04] <lastnode> JeezGodDang, dpkg -i ?
[07:04] <opitwin> Warbo: Is there one that doesn't have WYSIWYG in it?
[07:04] <LjL> though i don't really know what the "smart" option of synaptic is
[07:04] <Warbo> opitwin: Screem I think
[07:04] <JeezGodDang> lastnode, it wont break anything?
[07:04] <Warbo> opitwin: or bluefish
[07:05] <lastnode> JeezGodDang, it's just a new kernel, right? shouldn't.
[07:05] <lastnode> JeezGodDang, where did you get that deb from?
[07:05] <eugman> Anyone know how to setup content filtering in dapper? I know I need dansguardian and a proxy.
[07:05] <DarkRavenMixage> someone knows how to play amr audio with mplayer in ubuntu?
[07:05] <JeezGodDang> lastnode, good, now what about modules...do i need to install all these packages by hand
[07:05] <JeezGodDang> lastnode, http://ubuntu.secs.oakland.edu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.15/
[07:05] <Fjodor> Does anyone know, why a regular users print jobs seem to go to the manual feed of the printer?
[07:05] <onkarshinde> I am getting this error. /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.1/xineplug_inp_vcd.so: vcdinfo_get_seg_resolution and gxine is crashing. Anyone has any idea?
[07:05] <Warbo> JeezGodDang: Add that as a repository for apt-get
[07:05] <lastnode> JeezGodDang, whoa, just use the repos mate
[07:05] <jaek> dudes, hal is pissing me off... it takes forever to start the service up during boot, and then after i login get this error dialog... and then it takes forever for nautilus to run. http://<IP_ADDRESS>/~jake/hal_slooow.png
[07:05] <opitwin> Warbo: Can I install Bluefish by sudo apt-get install bluefish
[07:06] <Warbo> opitwin: Yes (I think)
[07:06] <JeezGodDang> lastnode, i dont want it to break anything...i just want the kernel source
[07:06] <Warbo> opitwin: That is GUI, but not WYSIWYG
[07:06] <LjL> opitwin: don't see why not
[07:06] <opitwin> What is bluefish's Website?
[07:06] <opitwin> Warbo: What is bluefish's Website?
[07:07] <Tykan> will ubuntu recognize my USB hard drive when i plug it in?
[07:07] <bobo> can you sort by online/offline in GAIM? and how do you show the display pictures?
[07:07] <LjL> opitwin: so, you haven't learned to type "bluefish" into google yet eh? ;-)
[07:07] <DarkRavenMixage> someone knows how to play amr audio with mplayer in ubuntu?
[07:07] <Warbo> opitwin: Their site is http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=bluefish&btnG=Google+Search&meta=
[07:07] <Warbo> :)
[07:07] <onkarshinde> I am getting this error. /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.1/xineplug_inp_vcd.so: vcdinfo_get_seg_resolution and gxine is crashing. Anyone has any idea?
[07:07] <opitwin> LjL: for a minute I forgot about googel
[07:07] <opitwin> google
[07:08] <JeezGodDang> Warbo, how can i add just the kernel directory for that repository?
[07:08] <giovan> joint #ubuntu-br
[07:08] <giovan> join #ubuntu-br
[07:08] <Warbo> JeezGodDang: Hmmm. You may be able to use the /etc/apt/preferences file to do that, but that is a little deep for me
[07:09] <jaek> failed to initialize HAL! <- i get this when i start gnome...  I like nvu :)
[07:10] <jaek> Warbo, no... i'm not... hal hangs for over a minute during system startup... and then i login to gnome and i get that message
[07:10] <liran_> uhmm, how do i enable tv-out? im on ati with the fglrx package installed.
[07:10] <mo0se> what option should i put for ntfs partitions?
[07:10] <MACO> i got an asus laptop
[07:10] <opitwin> Warbo: I really don't like NVU's way of writing in the code, I like HTML.
[07:10] <mo0se> the one on the wiki doesn't work.
[07:10] <jaek> liran_, you wont get anything to work properly with fglrx
[07:10] <dr_willis> !ntfs
[07:10] <ubotu> to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions there is no write support for ntfs that is safe. <!winfstab>
[07:10] <Warbo> jaek: OK, well you will want to fix that. Maybe you have some weird hardawe HAL doesn't like?
[07:10] <MACO> n' it freeze when my usb mouse is plug in
[07:10] <JeezGodDang> liran_, HAHA
[07:10] <mo0se> that one doesn't work, dr_willis.
[07:10] <dr_willis> !winfstab
[07:10] <ubotu> in fstab it should look **like** this:: /dev/hda1       /media/windows  ntfs    nls=utf8,ro,user,umask=000 0       0
[07:10] <JeezGodDang> liran_, liranuna is a pretty lady
[07:10] <MACO> what can i do ?
[07:11] <opitwin> Warbo: HTML is easier for me rather than figuring out a WYSIWYG program
[07:11] <jaek> Warbo, possibly... but in my office there are 3 same machines running ubuntu and only my machine does that
[07:11] <Warbo> opitwin: :) (nvu is basically the same as Mozilla Composer, but in GTK, so I know it's layout anyway)
[07:11] <liran_> jaek: why is that?
[07:11] <jaek> liran_, cus ATI drivers suck ballz
[07:11] <liran_> :)
[07:11] <liran_> come'on
[07:11] <ic56> moOse: there is a newer version of the !ntfs script.  I wrote it.   Tell me how the old one failed you and I'll tell you if the new one will
[07:11] <opitwin> Warbo: Thanks for your help
[07:11] <meherenOS-X> how can i install the debian menu?
[07:12] <jaek> serious, i never got an ATI machine to work as well as an nvidia machine
[07:12] <JeezGodDang> liran_, i know you
[07:12] <Warbo> meherenOS-X: The package is called "menu"
[07:12] <mo0se> ic56, i didn't use the script.
[07:12] <YogSothoth> Phnglui mglwnafh Cthulhu Rlyeh wgahnagl fthagn!
[07:12] <meherenOS-X> suo apt-get install menu should work then?
[07:12] <mo0se> i wanna do it manually.
[07:12] <gizmo_the_great1> i have just installed wine - when i type 'wine' at terminal I am asked what apps I want to run. I thought wine had a GUI to start you off?
[07:12] <meherenOS-X> xwine
[07:12] <meherenOS-X> gizmo do apt-get install xwine
[07:13] <bobo> can you sort by online/offline in GAIM? and how do you show the display pictures?
[07:13] <liran_> JeezGodDang: you do? :)
[07:13] <ic56> mo0se: and, you say, the manual instructions don't work?
[07:13] <Warbo> gizmo_the_great1: "winecfg" can set up WINE for you, but just type "wine program.exe" to run a program. That easy
[07:13] <mo0se> ic56: yeah. they don't work.
[07:13] <Crescendo> E: Package xwine has no installation candidate
[07:13] <JeezGodDang> liran_, dsdev
[07:13] <Warbo> Crescendo: xwine conflicts with wine
[07:13] <gizmo_the_great1> meherenOS-X: it says ' Package xwine has no installation candidate'
[07:14] <liran_> JeezGodDang: dsdev?
[07:14] <Warbo> gizmo_the_great1: Seriously, there is no "start you off". Just install WINE then run a program
[07:14] <mutil8> im trying to follow the guide at http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/~a9826090/en/projects/linux/hardware/wintv-usb2/ to get my wintv-usb2 working under ubuntu, but it asks for me to install 'linux-tree', but this doesn't seem to exist, has this been renamed to something else?
[07:14] <Crescendo> sudo apt-get remove wine
[07:14] <Crescendo> Wrong window.
[07:14] <Crescendo> =D
[07:14] <Pupeno> How do I make Evolution show mails as threads ?
[07:14] <ic56> mo0se: the instructions are correct.  If you insist on doing something manually, then you must also accept the labour that goes with that.  Read the relevant manpages and figure out what you did wrong.
[07:14] <JeezGodDang> liran_, ok or not :/
[07:15] <Warbo> mutil8: Sounds like it wants the headers to me
[07:15] <shadeofgrey> does anybody know of a better ftp program for ubuntu besides gftp?
[07:15] <gizmo_the_great1> Warbo: but surely the programs have to be 'installed' first? For example, i want to play Americas Army via Wine
[07:15] <liran_> JeezGodDang: hehe
[07:15] <mutil8> cvs make gcc-3.4 linux-tree linux-kernel-headers linux-headers
[07:15] <mutil8> that's everything it wants installed
[07:15] <JeezGodDang> liran_, just a nother liran from israel
[07:15] <mutil8> from apt
[07:15] <mo0se> ic56: i've done it before. someone gave me the right options on irc.
[07:15] <gizmo_the_great1> Warbo: so i would have to install it in WINE first I thought?
[07:15] <Warbo> gizmo_the_great1: Just run the game's windows installer (usually called setup.exe)
[07:15] <mo0se> they had 2's in them.
[07:15] <mo0se> weird.
[07:15] <liran_> JeezGodDang: how about you quit fooling around and help me out with this tv-out thing hehe :)
[07:15] <gizmo_the_great1> Warbo: OK - i will try that - thanks
[07:15] <ic56> mo0se: umask=0222
[07:15] <Scorpmoon> i need to install a kde app called kdissert.. but it's not available by apt-get .. however, it depends on some KDE libraries i guess.. how do I go about installing it?
[07:16] <mutil8> Warbo: so it's already asking for headers, what else could linux-tree be?
[07:16] <Crescendo> XWine still has no E: Package xwine has no installation candidate
[07:16] <Jemt> Scorpmoon: Have you added Multiverse ?
[07:16] <wubrgamer> hey guys, i need some help with compiz / xgl, WHAT ARE THE difference  ?
[07:16] <liran_> JeezGodDang: whats dsdev and who is that liran from israel? you got me all curious now :P
[07:16] <bobo> How do you create an empty file ....
[07:16] <bobo> ?
[07:16] <Cin> touch
[07:16] <Crescendo> touch file
[07:16] <mutil8> bobo: touch <filename>
[07:16] <Warbo> Scorpmoon: If you get the source then when you run ./configure you can check for what it needs (usually -dev packages) [there is an app to do this automatically, but I find it quite hopeless]
[07:16] <Jemt> bobo: 'touch file'
[07:16] <carlos_> hola, algun espaol??
[07:16] <bobo> thanks
[07:17] <tanek> !es
[07:17] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[07:17] <Warbo> mutil8: No idea. Maybe a kernel source tree? (hopefully not because you may have to make your own kernel)
[07:17] <yuheng108> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
[07:18] <Scorpmoon> Warbo, does this link help me in any way? packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/kde/kdissert
[07:18] <Jemt> Scorpmoon: Have you added Multiverse ?
[07:18] <meheren> hmm i install pkg menu nothing happening
[07:18] <meheren> how do i get the debin menu?
[07:18] <refuze> where's a good place to put xmodmap to load on startup?
[07:19] <Warbo> Scorpmoon: Looks like you can just "apt-get install kdissert" (if you have Universe enabled)
[07:19] <meheren> i used to have a menu under applications called debian then i did a fresh install and it's gone...
[07:19] <Scorpmoon> i tried already, what is universe?
[07:19] <Scorpmoon> i have a freshly installed dapper
[07:19] <Warbo> Scorpmoon: Or at least "apt-get build-dep kdissert" to install whatever other packages it needs
[07:19] <refuze> meheren: Applications > Accessories > Alacrate enable it there..
[07:19] <Jemt> !tell Scorpmoon about repositories
[07:19] <Warbo> !tell Scorpmoon about universe
[07:20] <livingdaylight> someone know about about easy ubuntu?
[07:20] <meheren> refuze, i enable it by clicking on the bx right... becaus eif so it won't let me...
[07:20] <Warbo> livingdaylight: Yes, it works quite well
[07:20] <Jemt> livingdaylight: Just ask your question :)

[07:20] <livingdaylight> don't know whether to use source-o-matic or easy ubuntu to get my media codecs

[07:21] <Warbo> mutil8: "linux-source-2.6.15"
[07:21] <Warbo> mutil8: Do you know how to make your own Linux kernel?
[07:22] <bobo> can't update to firefox 1.5.... I followed this http://devhen.wordpress.com/2006/05/11/howto-upgrade-to-firefox-15-on-ubuntu-510-breezy-badger/ but it doesn't work
[07:22] <Warbo> bobo: Are you on Breezy or Dapper (Dapper uses 1.5 by default)
[07:22] <thedesburrito> does anyone here know how to get juk to play?
[07:23] <mutil8> thanks Warbo
[07:23] <bobo> I have Breezy
[07:23] <NoUse> !ff1.5
[07:23] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[07:23] <NoUse> boob ^^^
[07:23] <Gistybit> uhm i accidentally closed the top panel in gnome (fresh dapper install), and now it won't come back. How do i get it back?
[07:23] <Warbo> bobo: OK, follow the ff1.5 guide just posted
[07:23] <meheren> awhile ago someone reccomended the pkg magick there is no such pkg but I saerched for it and found imagemagick i install but i still can't use the image editor...
[07:23] <Gistybit> i've tried putting Gnome-panel under startup in the session-properties
[07:23] <JeezGodDang> ok trying to compile a kernel from kernel.org....is there an easy develpackage i can get to get gcc et. all?
[07:23] <bobo> thanks, Warbo, NoUse
[07:23] <Warbo> Gistybit: Right click on an empty bit of panel and add a new one (you have to add all of it's applets back)
[07:23] <meheren> basically what i want to do is convert a bunch of .ico files to .png files
[07:24] <runes> I really need some help mounting a secondary ide drive in dapper
[07:24] <kyledye> !openflash
[07:24] <ubotu> kyledye: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:24] <NoUse> !tell JeezGodDang about kernelcompile
[07:24] <bobo> !gaim
[07:24] <ubotu> from memory, gaim is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GaimHowto
[07:24] <Warbo> kyledye: Are you after Gnash?
[07:24] <kyledye> i'm not sure to be honest warbo
[07:24] <Gistybit> Warbo: ok.. thx :)
[07:24] <kyledye> just cant get flash 8 pro to work in ubuntu
[07:25] <kyledye> so looking for an alternative
[07:25] <Warbo> kyledye: Ubuntu has GPLFlash, but Gnash has now overtaken it (and GPLFlash people have given up because it is better)
[07:25] <meheren> anyone hagve any ideas on how to convert .ico files to .png? i can use the gimp and open every file and save it as a .png but that is a pin as i have roughly 200 icons
[07:25] <kyledye> !gnash
[07:25] <meheren> *pain
[07:25] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, kyledye
[07:25] <Warbo> kyledye: It is on gnu.org
[07:25] <bobo> !mplayer
[07:25] <ubotu> hmm... mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[07:25] <kyledye> thank you warbo!
[07:26] <kieranDOA> Man, dapper is kickin' ass
[07:26] <r4v5> meheren: check if imagemagick supports .ico (it should)
[07:26] <JeezGodDang> i want to try xubuntu
[07:26] <Warbo> kyledye: www.gnu.org/software/gnash
[07:26] <meheren> r4v5, i can't open imagemagick...
[07:26] <r4v5> then you can do it in a shell script
[07:26] <kyledye> thank you much :)
[07:26] <r4v5> imagemagick is a command line app
[07:26] <NoUse> JeezGodDang sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop :-)
[07:26] <r4v5> command line application suite
[07:26] <meheren> jeezgoddang, suo apt-get install xubuntu
[07:26] <gharz> guys, i'm having problem with my ubuntu. everytime i reboot my system it got stuch from deconfiguring network interfaces... then it hangs. what could be the problem?
[07:26] <JeezGodDang> NoUse, heh i have the iso
[07:27] <NoUse> JeezGodDang ah
[07:27] <JeezGodDang> i was just mentioning that i want it
[07:27] <Warbo> r4v5: I was going to say, "a" command line app?
[07:27] <meheren> r4v5, and waht is the command to execute it?
[07:27] <JeezGodDang> whos used Thunar??
[07:27] <psycose> hi do you know a good tv tunner software ?
[07:27] <psycose> thanks
[07:27] <meheren> i treid imagemagick magick and image...
[07:27] <DarkRavenMixage> someone knows how to play amr audio with mplayer in ubuntu?
[07:27] <Warbo> meheren: It is loads of programs. For instance "display" "animate" convert" etc.
[07:28] <captine> psycose: tvtime is what i use
[07:28] <meheren> warbo, oh lol
[07:28] <psycose> captine, thanks
[07:28] <gharz> Warbo, can i ask for help?
[07:28] <JeezGodDang> psycose, use TVTIME!
[07:28] <meheren> hehe ok convert works for me... thx
[07:28] <r4v5> meheren: i haven't done this in a long time; man convert, but i think you'd use `convert imagefile.ico -write imagefile.png`
[07:28] <Warbo> psycose: zapping is quite good (but my card only gives b/w :()
[07:29] <Warbo> gharz: Go ahead
[07:29] <Jowi> JeezGodDang: I used Thunar, but went back to rox-filer
[07:29] <r4v5> wow, what an unhelpful man page. gg imagemagick
[07:29] <psycose> thanks all
[07:29] <Fjodor> meheren,r4v5: just convert in.ico out.png should be fine
[07:29] <meheren> yeh
[07:29] <gharz> everytime i reboot my system it hangs... it stops at Deconfiguring Network Interfaces...
[07:29] <JeezGodDang> does anyone know how to get my 3c905 to negotiate correctly....im downloading at 14kb/sec...on an oc3
[07:29] <meheren> convert --help kinda explains that...
[07:29] <gharz> warbo, everytime i reboot my system it hangs... it stops at Deconfiguring Network Interfaces...
[07:29] <livingdaylight> why does ubuntu come with Display set at 1600x1200? Moreover when i got to screen resolution it does not allow me to enable change
[07:30] <r4v5> interesting side note: apparently, the ubuntu 2.6.15 kernel sources have two conflicting options for the default 802.11 wireless stack
[07:30] <Warbo> gharz: Hmmm. Sorry, I'm no networking guy (my WiFi card screws the whole bootup)
[07:30] <Scorpmoon> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto is written for breezy
[07:30] <meheren> what if i want to convert say 200 images...
[07:30] <Jowi> livingdaylight: it depends on your videocard + monitor which resolutions are supported
[07:30] <Scorpmoon> i'm still abit unsure about what universe and multiverse is
[07:30] <Warbo> livingdaylight: It defaults to the highest available
[07:30] <Gistybit> I have created the top panel again, and some of the default panel icons back. But i can't find the "sound property" which lets me control master volume which was there from the clean install. How do i get it back?
[07:30] <gharz> Warbo, i also get a message that says apm: BIOS not found
[07:31] <Warbo> livingdaylight: You can use xrandr to get a nice, small display on a nice, high resolution display :)
[07:31] <LjL> Scorpmoon: universe has packages that are maintained by the community and not by the "main" ubuntu devs. multiverse generally contain packages that depend on some non-free stuff (emulators, for instance)
[07:31] <virtuelv> hm. I'm expericencing something really odd here : When I boot, the computer just freezes up
[07:31] <Fjodor> meheren: I can very easyli come up with a few lines that convert from file.ico to file.ico.png. Would that be ok?
[07:31] <r4v5> meheren: for i in "list of image names without prefix and space-delimited" ; do convert $i.ico $i.png ; done
[07:31] <meheren> yeh
[07:31] <Fjodor> s/easyli/easily
[07:31] <LjL> Scorpmoon: adding reps is the same in dapper as in breezy. just change every "breezy" into a "dapper", or use...
[07:31] <bobo> !compiling
[07:31] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware
[07:31] <gharz> Warbo, is there a command to check the log at reboot?

[07:31] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[07:31] <Jowi> Gistybit: you should be able to rightclick on the icon and set if you want to use Master, PCM etc
[07:31] <livingdaylight> Warbo: ok, but why can't i change it like with any other distro at screen resolution? I don't like having ot manually edit xconf
[07:31] <Warbo> gharz: The log is in /var/log/syslog
[07:32] <Warbo> livingdaylight: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:32] <meheren> r4v5,  so what i would have to type 400 names to the name sof these files?
[07:32] <Gistybit> Warbo: Yeah thx! there it was ;).. it had another icon when added.
[07:32] <r4v5> meheren: are they all in the same directory?
[07:32] <psycose> seems i got problems with updates (using dapper)  apt tells me syntax error in /var/lib/dpkg/available EOF after << >>
[07:32] <psycose> any tips ?
[07:32] <Jowi> livingdaylight: only two DEs are able to change resolution on the fly with a nice gui as far as i know; xfce and e17
[07:32] <meheren> r4v5, yes
[07:32] <uXp> how do i install my logitech mouse and eyboard on ubuntu?
[07:33] <Warbo> Jowi: Anything can do it. It is a feature of X (xrandr)
[07:33] <meheren> uxp, pluginplay my freind should work...
[07:33] <JeezGodDang> http://rafb.net/paste/results/NF0RT538.html   ROFLZZZZ help plz
[07:33] <Jowi> Warbo: that's why i added "with a nice gui" :)
[07:33] <livingdaylight> Jowi: what is the point of having screenresolution if i cant use it?
[07:33] <livingdaylight> How do i change my screen resolution, please?
[07:33] <uXp> well i have a nelite keyboard and it has like extra buttons but they don't work...
[07:33] <Warbo> Jowi: Yes, but there has to be a GTK applet somewhere
[07:33] <meheren> system:preferences:screen resolution
[07:33] <nootrope> does a "desktop" installation of ubuntu (dapper drake) automatically install a LAMP configuration? Or is that only done by default with a server installation?
[07:33] <Jemt> livingdaylight: System > Preference > Screen resolution
[07:33] <Warbo> livingdaylight: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:34] <psycose> can i suppress the /var/lib/dpkg/available file i got a syntax error in it
[07:34] <Warbo> livingdaylight: like I said before :)
[07:34] <r4v5> meheren: ls *.ico | sed 's/.ico//' | while read i ; do convert $i.ico $i.png
[07:34] <Jemt> livingdaylight: You should only run dpkg-reconfigure if the resolution you want is not there
[07:34] <Warbo> psycose: not unless you want no packages available :)
[07:34] <bobo> im trying to install firefox, but it says that a few packages are not authenticated.... what does that mean?
[07:34] <Jowi> Warbo: please find one for me. I want it. I haven't found any in the repos at least
[07:34] <uXp> anyone know..
[07:34] <Jowi> brb
[07:34] <Warbo> Jowi: gnomefiles.org?
[07:34] <psycose> Warbo, i can not use apt and update manager anymore cause there is a syntax error in this file
[07:35] <gizmo_the_great1> I am using XChat Gnome 0.11 - I want to join the irc.quakenet.org - how do I do it?
[07:35] <livingdaylight> Jewt: if you read my thread - i cannot change display from screenresolution. this is what is so frustrating me with ubuntu
[07:35] <Warbo> psycose: This is automatically made. Have you added a dodgy repo? try updating apt again
[07:35] <psycose> i've done nothing
[07:35] <psycose> yesterday everything was well
[07:35] <Warbo> livingdaylight: I SAID sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg !!
[07:35] <Jemt> livingdaylight: "Change display" ?
[07:35] <Scorpmoon> but if I want to install kdissert that is based on kde lib, would I put universe on binary or sources?
[07:36] <bobo> anyone?
[07:36] <livingdaylight> Warbo: thx. i don't like doing it that way, but i'll have to, hmpf...
[07:36] <kieranDOA> gizmo_the_great1: /server irc.quakenet.org
[07:36] <Jemt> livingdaylight: If you want me to answer, then please highlight me by my nick (Jemt) - otherwise I might not "see you" :)
[07:36] <livingdaylight> Jewt: yes!
[07:36] <psycose> the update manager tells me updates avalaible ... then i see that the process fail because of dpkg: erreur d'analyse syntaxique, dans le fichier /var/lib/dpkg/available EOF aprs le nom de champ
[07:36] <JeezGodDang> http://rafb.net/paste/results/NF0RT538.html   comments??
[07:36] <LjL> Scorpmoon: uh? you generally install binary packages, not source packages
[07:36] <Warbo> bobo: Packages are checked to make sure they have downloaded properly and that they are trusted. That is what verification and authentication are
[07:36] <Scorpmoon> ok
[07:36] <LjL> Scorpmoon: that's unless you need to compile them for some specific reason
[07:37] <Warbo> psycose: "sudo apt-get update"
[07:37] <Jemt> livingdaylight: What do you mean by "change display" ? Are you running on a laptop and what the image on an external monitor ?
[07:37] <livingdaylight> Jewt: i huh? i have highlighted you
[07:37] <psycose> Warbo, it works well
[07:37] <livingdaylight> Jewt: desktop. by display i mean screen resolution
[07:37] <Jemt> livingdaylight: My nick is Jemt - JeMt, not Jewt
[07:37] <Frogzoo> no problem jezt
[07:37] <Warbo> Jemt: Yes, I get called "Marbo"
[07:37] <LjL> Scorpmoon: installing kdissert will simply result in the needed KDE libraries getting installed. if you use aptitude for installing, they will be automatically removed later when/if you remove kdissert
[07:37] <Jemt> Warbo: Hehe :)
[07:37] <psycose> Warbo, after this command i've got du /var/lib/dpkg/available  | 0       /var/lib/dpkg/available
[07:38] <LjL> Scorpmoon: otherwise (apt-get, synaptic, ...), they'd have to be removed manually
[07:38] <rudeman> guys, how can i install j2me wireless toolkit in ubuntu dapper ?
[07:38] <livingdaylight> Jemt: sorry, you see my display is so small i didn't tell the difference
[07:38] <uXp> does an elite keyboard with the extra play,pause buttons work on ubuntu?
[07:38] <uXp> !keyboards
[07:38] <Scorpmoon> is it redundant to add both Ubuntu 6.06 LTS "Community maintaned" AND Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Backports "Community maintained AND Multiverse"
[07:38] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, uXp
[07:38] <psycose> Warbo i think this is a bug in the update process
[07:38] <Warbo> psycose: ? Sorry I don't understand

[07:38] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, uXp
[07:38] <gnomefreak> uXp: please dont play with the bot
[07:38] <psycose> the file  /var/lib/dpkg/available is empty size = 0.
[07:38] <Frogzoo> Scorpmoon: you're best to avoid backports if possible
[07:38] <uXp> i was seeing if there was anything on it
[07:38] <Scorpmoon> ok
[07:38] <Jemt> livingdaylight: Ok, you are not making much sense. You want to change resolution, right? What's the problem? You resolution you want is not listed in System > Preference > Screen resolution? If so, run 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[07:39] <Warbo> uXp: You need to assign the keys to things (don't ask me how)
[07:39] <tubbie> where can I get a bot like obunto?

[07:40] <opitwin> livingdaylight: ubuntu is the best!!!
[07:40] <Jemt> livingdaylight: "Don't hold" ? Could you elaborate? It's not the same after reboot ?
[07:40] <opitwin> ubotu: tell livingdaylight about ubuntu
[07:40] <psycose> well if some are interested i've just encounter a bug in the update manager that do not allow me to update/install packages anymore

[07:41] <rudeman> does anyone know how to install J2ME Wireless Toolkit in Ubuntu 6.06 ?
[07:41] <r4v5> LjL: change your dhcp client's settings (or chmod -w /etc/resolv.conf, but that's cheating)
[07:41] <Yoric> That's my first problem with ubuntu, but it's rather a big one.
[07:42] <Yoric> Any suggestion ?
[07:42] <LjL> Yoric: sounds like a bug report
[07:42] <psycose> Please do you know guys how to reset my /var/lib/dpkg/available file ? and get a clean one thanks
[07:42] <LjL> r4v5: but i'm using a static IP and all...

[07:42] <kieranDOA> runes: add to /etc/fstab ?
[07:42] <LjL> Yoric: launchpad.net
[07:43] <Jemt> LjL: Did you configure your DNS using console ?

[07:43] <TheSheep> when I try to install RealPlayer package, it says: Depends: xlibs  but it is not installable
[07:43] <psycose> Warbo, can you paste me the first liner of your file please
[07:43] <TheSheep> what I can do with it?
[07:43] <Jemt> LjL: If so, I have expirenced the same thing. I can recommend using the Gnome tools. Otherwise you might loose changes
[07:43] <Warbo> TheSheep: That is a Debian package, not an Ubuntu one
[07:43] <Jemt> livingdaylight: "Don't hold" ? Could you elaborate? It's not the same after reboot ?
[07:43] <Frogzoo> djcabz: no need to patch ipw2200 for  monitor mode these days - on dapper, it just works
[07:43] <LjL> Jemt: i'm using KDE, so i configured it through the KDE network settings. it works, but only until next reboot. also tried adding a "nameserver" entry to /etc/network/interfaces, to no avail
[07:43] <TheSheep> Warbo: thanks
[07:44] <Warbo> TheSheep: You could install the deb file with dpkg -i --force-all package.deb
[07:44] <Jemt> LjL: Whut? Odd! Can recommend Ubuntu - works for me ;)
[07:44] <nootrope> can i use the "install a LAMP server" option in the server install disk to *add* a LAMP installation to a "desktop" installation of dapper drake?
[07:44] <opitwin> Frogzoo: Hello!

[07:45] <Zaggynl> :P
[07:45] <Jemt> nootrope: apt-get install <packages I just mentioned>
[07:45] <Zaggynl> just needed names
[07:45] <opitwin> Frogzoo: Do you know if you can use a U3 Flash Drive with Ubuntu
[07:45] <LjL> Jemt: i'd rather stick with KDE for a number of reasons... what annoys me a little is that all the network stuff is, in a way, a step back from breezy. the breezy installer tried dhcp, but *then* asked me for my static IP settings when it realized no DHCP was available
[07:45] <TheSheep> Warbo: I found the howton on RestrictedFormats :)
[07:45] <djcabz> Frogzoo, I think that works... one more sec ;)
[07:45] <LjL> Jemt: now it's install, then mess with the settings

[07:57] <LjL> Hoxzer_: you too should probably try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. and then use settings that are OK for your monitor
[07:57] <Zaggynl> opitwin: Yup, I actually have to install an antivirus on the server (school project), but as far I can see/know it isn't really neccesary, just good configuring eliminates a lot of security risks.
[07:57] <livingdaylight> Jowi: what will? sudo apt-get install gvidm ?
[07:57] <Jemt> livingdaylight: Well, some hardware is totally "closed source" - like SIS. And it is quite difficult to develop drivers to this sort of hardware
[07:57] <cef> ahhh, just had to go to the default theme instead of what was there.. for some reason it gave me a custom theme
[07:57] <zaggynl^away> ima go play a game on my wintendo now
[07:58] <mcherm> LjL: thanks! Any other suggestions before I spend the 15 min it takes to log off here and reboot into ubuntu? For instance, if it's going to ask me any questions like what hardware I have then maybe I should look up the answers first from in fedora...
[07:58] <Vaporlze> hi...today i tried to upgrade from Breezy to dapper. i used the synaptics manager. some problems occured like: could not load image mplayer.png; and some packages could not be installed (first one cupsys:subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[07:58] <smax> how can i set a limmit on my terminal for the max # of lines till text is not reachable and off the terminal ?
[07:58] <MikkelRev> Kaius: how to check my default route? Just typing 'route' gives no address
[07:58] <opitwin> Zaggynl: Yep, the extra ports are automactically closed
[07:58] <psycose> Well there is a bug in dpkg/apt the /var/lib/dpkg/available can be  corrupted i don't know how
[07:58] <LjL> Jemt: one thing is developing drivers, and one thing is having a decent, working way to set resolutions and refresh rates... let's admit it, this has always been a mess with X, and it's still a mess no matter how friendly the control panel applets are trying to be :)
[07:59] <lee_> MikkelRev, netstat -rn
[07:59] <jacopoexchange> Vaporlze: most people are installing it from cd cause upgrading is causing problems
[07:59] <psycose> but nobody is interested in Ubuntu, hopefully guys in debian help me
[07:59] <LjL> mcherm: it is going to ask that kind of questions, but it should also be smart enough to guess the answers correctly
[07:59] <lee_> speaking of X. would anyone know if the vesa driver can do 1200x800?
[07:59] <Vexmaster> hello all
[07:59] <Kaius> MikkelRev> Try route -n.  You should at least see something for your active network interface.
[07:59] <mcherm> LjL: Okay, thanks!
[07:59] <Kaius> Hey Vex.
[07:59] <lee_> cause it can't be default with dapper installer
[07:59] <MikkelRev> lee_: no addresses shown
[07:59] <opitwin> Vexmaster: hello
[08:00] <lee_> MikkelRev, than you have no routes
[08:00] <Vaporlze> hm...ok...should i backup my data?
[08:00] <lee_> if you know your default route, type: sudo route add default gw <ip>
[08:00] <Kaius> MikkelRev> do an ifconfig and make sure your interface(s) are up.
[08:00] <Vexmaster> is this room newb friendly?
[08:00] <LjL> Vexmaster: try and see
[08:00] <jacopoexchange> Vaporlze: if you have diskspace you can install ubuntu on another partiotion and then copy the datas from the old one
[08:00] <Frogzoo> Vexmaster: mostly newbs here guy
[08:00] <jacopoexchange> i did like that
[08:00] <lee_> Vexmaster, muah muah muah. yes it its.

[08:01] <Kaius> Can someone help with tftp time out issues?  The service is reported as running but I can't even get a file from the same system that the server is running on...
[08:01] <Vexmaster> just wanted to know if its better to install Mplayer through the source code or via synaptic?
[08:02] <Kaius> Hoxzer_> Space I believe.
[08:02] <Vaporlze> ok...then i'll start downloading the iso....and it's save to install it from the iso?
[08:02] <lee_> so...anyone know if it's possible to set X to 1200x800 with the vesa driver?
[08:02] <LjL> Vexmaster: i can only give you the generic answer, which is: via synaptic (or via APT, more generally).
[08:02] <Kaius> Vexmaster> I'd stick with packages unless you're comfortable with compiling from source.
[08:02] <MikkelRev> Kaius, lee_ : Wireless connection ra0 not active. Trying to activate: gets never finished
[08:02] <LjL> Vexmaster: unless you have some specific need, installing packages using APT is the best option
[08:02] <keir> where is /etc/ld.so.conf on dapper? i need to add /usr/local/lib to my shared library search path.
[08:02] <opitwin> Vexmaster: There is one guy that logs on every once in a while that talks about peoples moms though
[08:02] <Frogzoo> Vexmaster: synaptic - always use the supported repos, where possible (but amarok's > mplayer anyhow...)
[08:02] <Kaius> MikkelRev> Driver issue?  Has it ever worked before?
[08:03] <LjL> Frogzoo: uh... amarok's not quite the same thing as mplayer :o)
[08:03] <Vexmaster> thnx so much! just one more question?
[08:03] <Kaius> Vexmaster> Shoot.
[08:03] <lee_> MikkelRev, wireless sucks most of the time with Linux
[08:03] <lee_> MikkelRev, what chipset is your card using?
[08:03] <Vexmaster> are there any packages for DVD playback?
[08:03] <opitwin> Bye
[08:03] <Kaius> lee_> Actually, with Hoary my NetGear wireless works like a charm.
[08:03] <NoUse> !dvd
[08:03] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu.   Have fun. ;)
[08:04] <MikkelRev> Kaius: it works fine with Windows
[08:04] <judah> manufacturers that don't open their chipsets suck.
[08:04] <lee_> my bcm and prism_2 doesn't
[08:04] <judah> atheros 4th gen cards are wicked awsome under linux..
[08:04] <lee_> and WPA is way complicated
[08:04] <Kaius> MikkelRev> I'd check for a driver.  You may be stuck having to use the ndiswrapper.
[08:04] <judah> prism cards work just fine.
[08:04] <Vaporlze> hm...is it possible to downgrade to breezy again? (after my halfway-upgrade?)
[08:05] <runes> Help!  I had to reinstall ubuntu dapper on my primary drive today reformatting only the install drive (/dev/hda1), no problem there..but my secondary ide drive (hdd1) which has the backup data and which was formatted in ext3 cannot be mounted nor recongized properly.  The disc manager sees it as unformatted!
[08:05] <njs12345> Vaporlze: it's probably technically possible
[08:05] <judah> intel has great linux support for their cards..
[08:05] <njs12345> doesn't mean it's a good idea ;)
[08:05] <judah> c/prism/prism2
[08:05] <lee_> judah, the ipw2200 need proprietary firmware
[08:05] <NoUse> runes the secondary HD would be /dev/hdb, not hdd
[08:06] <goibhniu> am i likely to get stuck if I upgrade from breezy to dapper using my ndiswrapper driven wireless card?
[08:06] <MikkelRev> lee_: RaLink
[08:06] <LjL> Vaporlze: everything is possible, but it will be very, very far from easy
[08:06] <judah> the 2100BG is a great card.
[08:06] <Kaius> I don't know why but it still tickles me when people use a regex in chat to correct a spelling error or something. hehe
[08:06] <njs12345> MikkelRev: I have a ralink upstairs!
[08:06] <lee_> MikkelRev, what does iwconfig output?
[08:06] <njs12345> it seems to work fine
[08:06] <Vaporlze> haha....could u guys guide me?

[08:07] <Vaporlze> ok...so it's better to set up a new system...
[08:07] <LjL> Vaporlze: my suggestion is, reinstall. save your home directory and possibly your /etc directory, and reinstall
[08:07] <Kaius> Can someone help with tftp time out issues?  The service is reported as running but I can't even get a file from the same system that the server is running on...
[08:07] <njs12345> Vaporize: You said you had half-upgraded it?
[08:08] <njs12345> Kaius: does telnet work?
[08:08] <Frogzoo> runes: looks like a file system to me   - try 'sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hdd1 /mnt'
[08:08] <Vaporlze> yea...some errors occured, and some packages couldnt be installed....
[08:08] <goibhniu> does anyone know if dist-upgrade downloads everything it needs before starting to upgrade or upgrades and downloads at the same time?
[08:08] <njs12345> downloads everything it needs first
[08:08] <psycose> Vaporlze you got the same problem ?
[08:08] <dixie> goibhniu: it downloads before
[08:08] <Kaius> njs12345> Connection refused.  Is there a firewall in the standard Dapper server install?
[08:08] <njs12345> nope
[08:08] <LjL> Vaporlze: happened to me as well. upgrading from breezy apparently isn't as smooth as a dist-upgrade. ended up installing from scratch
[08:08] <LORDsivanicon> Anyone know why when I run  'sudo cp etc/* /etc/' it tells me its ommiting a file, why does it omit the file?
[08:09] <J0s3ph> Hello. I don't soppose anyone else is having trouble with the Pengiun Liberation Front repository mirrors too?
[08:09] <Kaius> LORDsivanicon> Try adding the -a option.
[08:09] <Vaporlze> started wit cupsys -<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu
[08:09] <Kaius> njs12345> So if the daemon is running why would the connection be refused?
[08:09] <Kaius> Very confusing.
[08:09] <runes> ok trying it brb
[08:09] <njs12345> hmm
[08:09] <ompaul> J0s3ph, they are outside the control of most people, stick the url in a web browser and see if you can get to it, if you can then your having a problem if you can't then your not they are
[08:09] <goibhniu> dixie: cheers, so I shouldn't have any trouble if it doesn't set up my wifi card during the upgrade I'll still have a working system
[08:09] <njs12345> does it work from the computer that the daemon is running on?
[08:09] <J0s3ph> ompaul: Done that, and I can.

[08:11] <J0s3ph> nyarla: Dapper noob here too. I found out the other day that there's a Linux version of AVG.
[08:11] <Kaius> well, technically you don't need an antivirus..

[08:13] <Warbo> If I was going to install something that is not really needed I would make sure it is FLOSS. I only use non-free software when there is no choice
[08:13] <Warbo> In other words I would not install Linux AVG
[08:13] <ompaul> nyarla, in 11+ years of having an OSS desktop my PCs have never had a malware or virus problem other than the clutter as it arrives in email (before it gets deleted), so I guess I don't need one ;-)
