[21:23] <Quentin83> Please, does anyone in here have already install trac and svn on their gutsy ? Because i'm getting probems with the authenfication....
[21:23] <Flannel> Taza: How large is the install? or how large is the download?
[21:23] <RickJames> OEM is the only way i can get it to install on this HP i have
[21:23] <neopsyche> ConstyXIV_: you there?
[21:23] <Taza> Flannel: Install, I've got broadband (for now)
[21:24] <fluffman> !oem
[21:24] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[21:24] <Flannel> RickJames: That doesn't make any sense.  The OEM install and the desktop install (on the alternate CD) should be the same
[21:24] <[chr0n0s]> can anyone give me link to gutsy torrent ?
[21:24] <Taza> I ran into problems with Debian because I couldn't recompile the kernel due to the lack of space
[21:24] <Flannel> Taza: 1.5 GB will be plenty of room.  Full desktop installs on 2GB no problem.
[21:24] <RickJames> the GUI installer refuses to go past 77%
[21:24] <kl4m> !torrent
[21:24] <ubotu> Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt), rTorrent (C++) -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[21:24] <XB23> hey guys using apt-get how do i install xen?
[21:24] <kl4m> oops
[21:24] <RickJames> alt cd installer won't go past 83%
[21:24] <neopsyche> [chr0n0s]: why not just download it from a normal link?
[21:24] <Taza> Flannel: Yeah, and I'm certainly not installing KDE/Gnome/Xfce
[21:24] <Flannel> RickJames: Did you verify the CD (check CD for defects, from the boot menu)
[21:24] <RickJames> OEM so far has gotten me to installing software section
[21:24] <Taza> All of them are crap imo
[21:25] <[chr0n0s]> neopsyche, torrents are lot faster there
[21:25] <Rubin> RickJames, tested your hard disk & memory lately?
[21:25] <[chr0n0s]> neopsyche, torrents are lot faster here
[21:25] <RickJames> flannel : i'm currently using the same OS that i installed this morning as i'm using the same cd on the other machine
[21:25] <neopsyche> [chr0n0s]: can you help me install a phone sync
[21:25] <neopsyche> ?
[21:25] <pjz> anyone know if the ati drivers released yesterday will make it into a gutsy update?
[21:25] <RickJames> hmmm, ram, i dind't think of that .
[21:25] <RickJames> could it be the video card i am using ?
[21:25] <[chr0n0s]> neopsyche, nope, sorry
[21:25] <newcomer> hiiiiiiii
[21:25] <Flannel> RickJames: well, OEM is perfectly fine, just run `sudo oem-config-prepare` (I think that's it) and then reboot, and you'll get a regular system
[21:25] <jarotmm> hi guys
[21:25] <Rubin> pjz, generally once a release goes out, only security fixes and bugs get fixed. you may have to wait for 8.04 for that
[21:26] <RickJames> thanks flannel
[21:26] <poison----> guys, when i: mrp@takedown:~$ kdesu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade"
[21:26] <poison----> i get: sh:
[21:26] <poison----> Can't open /cdrom/cdromupgrade
[21:26] <poison----> any ideas?
[21:26] <l33txor> g'day
[21:26] <jarotmm> i need to link java with firefox, how can i do that ?
[21:26] <RickX> anyone know how to get a windowlist menu by clicking on the desktop?
[21:26] <JeevesMoss> can someone tell me the proper use of the "ln" command?
[21:26] <torrente> anyone know how to setup virtual printer pdf -file?
[21:26] <Flannel> Taza: There is a minimal install on the alternate CD, it might be called the server install (it used to be).  Alternatively, you could get the server CD, but its got less HW support out of the box, and you'll want to switch away from the server kernel after install as well
[21:26] <pjz> JeevesMoss: ln --help
[21:26] <[chr0n0s]> JeevesMoss, use man ln
[21:26] <neopsyche> can anyone help me get syncML running with multisync?
[21:26] <pjz> JeevesMoss: or 'man ln'
[21:26] <XB23> hey guys using apt-get how do i install xen?
[21:26] <RickJames> well, i'm at 97% cleaning up, sometimes fails here, lets see what it does
[21:26] <Rubin> JeevesMoss, its just like cp command, only the target becomes a link instead of a copy
[21:26] <JeevesMoss> wow, thanks.  not like I havn't tried those before comming here.
[21:26] <l33txor> torrente, use cups
[21:26] <olem_> torrente: apt-get install cups-pdf
[21:26] <Taza> Flannel: I've got 40% of the alt install CD downloaded.
[21:27] <olem_> torrente: then, follow the line :)
[21:27] <pjz> XB23: apt-cache search xen ; then look at what it outputs and decide which bits you need
[21:27] <Flannel> Taza: I'd just go with that
[21:27] <Taza> Flannel: Bandwidth isn't a problem for the weekend (unlike for the rest of the time), hard drive space is.
[21:27] <DemonJester> JeevesMoss, what are you trying to do?
[21:27] <ir4d0m> Im trying to find an ip changer thingy> how do i change my ip address?
[21:27] <torrente> olem , iusecups-pdf but when i print to a file there is not pdf file
[21:27] <Taza> Flannel: I don't want something like Gnome or KDE or Xfce-desktop whoring the hdd space.
[21:27] <Flannel> Taza: alt CD has a repository on it a well, got some extra stuff you might find useful once you're installed as wel.
[21:27] <XB23> how can i update the apt
[21:27] <okeefenokee> Anybody proficient with wireless networks? Wanna help me with troubleshooting mine?
[21:27] <XB23> to the latest things
[21:27] <buntunub> hey i have an ati x1600 that wont boot. How to fix?
[21:27] <pjz> Rubin: augh. 6 months to get hat in? ick.
[21:28] <Taza> Flannel: I can download less than 10mb files just fine anytime, and some 10gb on the weekends.
[21:28] <[chr0n0s]> ir4d0m, use ifconfig or ethtool, you need to read man pages, i don't remember the arguments
[21:28] <Rubin> pjz: or you can run the devel version...
[21:28] <John117> How do i restore a deleted folder from the trash to its original location?
[21:28] <torrente> olem_: i am in gutsy ,in feisty there is not problem with it
[21:28] <JeevesMoss> Rubin:  well. I have an install of DtoProject in /home/www_root/dotproject/ and I want my 4 differen't vhosted sites to use the same install so I can save some space.  Every time I try the LN command, it makes a dupe directory (ie/ <site root>/dotproject/dotproject/  I want to make it behave like <site root>/dotproject/
[21:28] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: I'll give it a stab. . .No guarantees.
[21:28] <spine55> does anyone know where I can get the t.fnt.gz console font and how to get ubuntu to use it for the default console font?
[21:28] <Flannel> Taza: You'll probably want to look into AptOnCD then, it'll allow you to build additional repository CDs (including updates) for use anytime
[21:28] <Brandon_> DemonJester, do you know when making the start function in a runscript what is the pidfile for?
[21:28] <okeefenokee> purpzey: of course not - any help is much appreciated
[21:28] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Is it at all ubuntu relateD?
[21:29] <okeefenokee> purpzey: the lot
[21:29] <Rubin> JeevesMoss, ln -s /home/www_root/dotproject  /path/to/site
[21:29] <Taza> Flannel: Not a problem, I can just do it on the weekends. I just need everything large installed by Sunday.
[21:29] <buntunub> hey does anyone know how to get an ati x1600 to load Xwindows in Gutsy?
[21:29] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Ok, lay it on me and we'll see if it's not beyond my scope
[21:29] <olem_> torrente: well... I've just dist-upgraded to gusty... I'm gonna see if cups-pdf has issue (it did not in feisty).
[21:29] <okeefenokee> purpzey: i run my system in command line mode - no gui
[21:29] <JeevesMoss> Rubin:  ok, I think that's the one I tried
[21:29] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Ok, that is not usual for me, but I should be able to keep up.
[21:29] <Taza> Flannel: Bandwidth isn't a problem right now - I just need to delay stuff like dist-upgrade to weekends. The problem is the hdd space.
[21:29] <hvgotcodes> how do i install an icon theme?
[21:29] <nuububuntu> newbie here...installed 7.10 and only 1 of my external 3 usb hdds recognised...works ok in vista..any ideas?
[21:29] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: What is the problem....
[21:29] <zylche> [21:29] <Rubin> JeevesMoss, keep workin on it, you'll figure it out ;)
[21:29] <cello_rasp> ALSA won't let 2 programs play sounds at the same time.
[21:30] <okeefenokee> purpzey: i downloaded the native driver for my card, compiled it, and insmod:ed it
[21:30] <cello_rasp> how do i change this
[21:30] <DemonJester> Brandon_, it is the process ID of the runscript
[21:30] <okeefenokee> purpzey: now i try to set the thingey up with iwconfig, but i just don't get any contact
[21:30] <Taza> Wow.
[21:30] <Taza> "LowEndSystemSupport" is exceptionally sucky on the wiki
[21:30] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Is lspci recognizing your card?
[21:30] <Rubin> cello_rasp, use a sound server, such as esound
[21:30] <c0Ld> Is anyone willing to help me troubleshoot Nexuiz/Open Arena issues? My graphics in both seem to be messed up with major color distortion -- but counter-strike and countless other games run flawlessly under WINE.
[21:30] <hvgotcodes> anyone on how to install an icon pack?
[21:30] <JeevesMoss> Rubin:  lol, this is fun.  Because I don't have access (from my FTP) to the directory where it's installed, I can't open it in my FTP program
[21:30] <Taza> That's like a list of things you should NOT do on low-end systems. Heck, Xfce?
[21:31] <hvgotcodes> i dont see it in preferences
[21:31] <okeefenokee> purpzey: yep, and iwconfig lists a wlan0-connection as well
[21:31] <Urthmover> What is the best way way to have a system always available via VNC? (even if user is logged out)?
[21:31] <sethness> Can anybody help me with my audio? I'm on a Toshiba A135-S4527 with Realtek sound. I've followed some stuff online, but no luck
[21:31] <VINCHENZO28> were do i get beryl for ubuntu 7.10 64 bit?
[21:31] <JeevesMoss> sethness:  good luck,  I'm STILL waiting to get the sound working on my Toshiba
[21:31] <sethness> Vinchen, Compiz-Fusion is the new Beryl and comes with it
[21:31] <DemonJester> VINCHENZO28, try compiz-fusion
[21:31] <John117> ir4d0m The best way is to use a proxy server.  You can create a secure tunnel to access the internet though and everything looks like it is coming from another locaiton.  The best I've found so far is www.findnot.com
[21:31] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: So, the card isn't seeing your network, or you're not getting an IP?
[21:31] <VINCHENZO28> were can i tweak compiz?\
[21:32] <evolutionize> Can anyone tell me if Evolution actually comes with a system tray notifier or do I have to install it to make the plugin work.
[21:32] <sethness> System>Prefs>Advanced Graphics
[21:32] <okeefenokee> purpzey: well, i don't really know which it is. How can I tell?
[21:32] <John117> How do i restore a deleted folder from the trash to its original location?
[21:32] <VINCHENZO28> thanks
[21:32] <sethness> er, Advanced Desktop
[21:32] <Rubin> Urthmover, if you dont care if its the _SAME_ session as if there is a local user, you can run vncserver.. it creates a hidden virtual desktop, only visible via vnc
[21:32] <minimec> Taza: I am a fan of the e17+ubuntu combination on low-end computers. Low-end for me is PIII 800+ with 256MB RAM.
[21:32] <acabre> Hello, is there a way I can add the Fiesty repositories to Gutsy. Vmware player hasnt been added to the 7.10 apparently?
[21:32] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: I am not sure of the exact package name...But I'd try installed kismet, see if kismet will pick up Networks...which will assure you the card is working...I mean, if you know the card is working then kismet is for sure the next step
[21:33] <VINCHENZO28> sethness i dont have that feature
[21:33] <Taza> minimec: "low-end" for me is 233mhz Pentium II with 64mb of RAM
[21:33] <sethness> In Ubuntu 7.10?
[21:33] <VINCHENZO28> i just updated from 7.04?
[21:33] <Rubin> acabre: you can just add the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list but be careful there, your treading on know-what-your-doing water messing with repos ;)
[21:33] <sethness> Advanced Desktop Effects Settings?
[21:33] <Taza> minimec: I figure this "low-end" was 1.6ghz P4 with 512mb of ram and a 20gb hdd¨
[21:33] <l33txor> hvgotcodes, you could just drag n drop the zip but i reckon read this
[21:33] <Taza> minimec: Addition: 2gb hdd
[21:33] <VINCHENZO28> nothin advanced their
[21:33] <l33txor> hvgotcodes, http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[21:33] <hvgotcodes> drag and drop where?
[21:34] <acabre> <rubin: is there a better way to add it if its not in the gutsy repo?
[21:34] <okeefenokee> purpzey: ok, kismet is a diagnostic tool obviously?
[21:34] <smallfoot-> can i change transparency of a window?
[21:34] <sethness> Oh, I forgot, you might have to turn on a restricted driver if you have a video card
[21:34] <spine55> ok found the console font does anyone know how to change the console font in ubuntu?
[21:34] <VINCHENZO28> ahh
[21:34] <smallfoot-> can i change transparency of a window? i use ubuntu 7.10 with compiz thingy
[21:34] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: It's basically a network sniffer...You have to run it using sudo...but it will just tell you if there are networks around...it's a cli program
[21:34] <sethness> You also need to download compiz-config settings from Synaptic
[21:34] <minimec> Taza: Well... You could still use your machine as a server, but I guess 64MB RAM is not sufficiant for an decent X-Desktop.
[21:34] <nuububuntu> guys can anyone help me access 2 external usb 2 drives...can only see 1 of 3 connected? ta
[21:34] <VINCHENZO28> says its in use
[21:34] <[chr0n0s]> smallfoot-, try cccsm
[21:35] <[chr0n0s]> smallfoot-, try ccsm
[21:35] <Taza> minimec: A P2 with 233mhz CPU and 64mb of RAM and 2gb of HDD can do desktop fine even with Bloatbuntu
[21:35] <okeefenokee> purpzey: so if my network card works (and is configured correctly) it will recognize it
[21:35] <VINCHENZO28> is their a name i can enter into terminal?
[21:35] <smallfoot-> [chr0n0s], thats the Advanced Desktop Effects Manager?
[21:35] <Le|nad> i'm being played by my big bro
[21:35] <Le|nad> in 2003ish
[21:35] <sethness> You probably need to download that package from synaptic
[21:35] <Nyle> hi
[21:35] <Taza> minimec: It actually requires some knowledge of linux however, something Ubuntu users seem to be sorely lacking in.
[21:35] <[chr0n0s]> smallfoot-, yes, you can set transparency there
[21:35] <Le|nad> 2001 actually
[21:35] <smallfoot-> [chr0n0s], how?
[21:35] <minimec> Taza: ;)
[21:36] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Yeah...I mean, iwconfig should tell you if the card is working...
[21:36] <snkmad> is it hard to compile wine from source? new version just out, and wanna test steam games on it
[21:36] <Le|nad> definatly after 2000
[21:36] <Nyle> is there a way to do a network install of 7.10.  I need only a linux/inird.gz files (kernel/ramdisk image) and I want to start the netinst that way
[21:36] <Nyle> I can't find these two files anywhere
[21:36] <Flannel> snkmad: the official wine repos should have it
[21:36] <Nyle> could someone please help me out
[21:36] <Taza> minimec: The main thing is picking stuff with few required libraries and depedencies and using something light like fluxbox, ion3 or icewm as your wm.
[21:36] <koudelka_> is there a way to change the font colors that the ones writing to me have on pidgin? i have a dark theme and the original text color is black :/
[21:36] <snkmad> Flannel how do i check? sorry installed ubuntu just this week
[21:37] <Taza> minimec: And in NO case installing stuff suggested in the wiki article. That stuff comes with a TON of libraries, which WILL slow your computer down to no end.,
[21:37] <okeefenokee> purpzey: yep, iwconfig gives me a lot of la-dee-daa about wlan0 (which obv is my wlan-card). I can also set all kinds of things - essid, ap, and so on. But, the connection is never made :(
[21:37] <VINCHENZO28> anyone know where i can open the compiz-fusion program to edit in 7.10 (i want to tweak it nicer)
[21:37] <osmosis> how come my gutsy install has no eth0, but has a eth2?
[21:37] <minimec> Taza: I see that they are on Flucbox 1.0 now. I will give it another try...
[21:37] <Brandon_> I can't figure out for the life of me how to get a program to start via daemons. I make the script in /etc/init.d and make it +x then I make a symbolic link in /etc/rc5.d and rename it with S21 at the beginning. Does that sound right?
[21:37] <Urthmover> sorry Rubin.....so how do I get it to be part of bootup?  and allow sessions even if someone isn't logged in locally?
[21:37] <[chr0n0s]> smallfoot-, it's in one of the options..not use which,, you have to look
[21:37] <Psi-Jack> What would cause my ubuntu-server that I upgraded from 6.10 -> 7.04 -> 7.10, that openssh key usage never has worked? What do I need to do to actually GET it to work?
[21:37] <Flannel> snkmad: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine  has instructions, the second bit abotu using the WineHQ repos
[21:37] <olem_> torrente: with gutsy, cups-pdf is installed by default
[21:37] <cyphase> VINCHENZO28: ccsm
[21:37] <Taza> minimec: Fluxbox works fine (more than fine) once you get used to it's UI. It's not really difficult though.
[21:37] <koudelka_> VINCHENZO28: you have to have compiz-settings-manager installed
[21:37] <Taza> minimec: Most importantly, it's really light these days
[21:37] <olem_> torrente: and configured to write your docs(pdf) to $HOME/PDF
[21:38] <VINCHENZO28> were is that
[21:38] <Rug> minimec: I LOVE fluxbox.   Only thing I use
[21:38] <snkmad> Flannel thx
[21:38] <N3oXid> Hi everyone one
[21:38] <minimec> Taza: I used Fluxbox for about 2 years before I discovered E17
[21:38] <l33txor> hvgotcodes, sorted?
[21:38] <N3oXid> Got a little problem with su and screen
[21:38] <torrente> olem_: but i see ps documents no pdf
[21:38] <Fantasma> hello folks, I recently installed Gutsy Gibbon but my secondary HDD (Windows) wasnt enabled during the install. What can I do now to get a Windows boot from GRUB? Anyone? =)
[21:38] <l33txor> flux is the best thig ever
[21:38] <osmosis> is there a way to disable  70-persistent-net.rules  ?
[21:38] <cyphase> VINCHENZO28: the package is called compizconfig-settings-manager
[21:38] <Taza> minimec: The looks/weight ratio of fluxbox is the best of the wm's out there - you can get better looking wm's and pay dearly in resources, or get faster wm's and pay in looks.
[21:38] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Ok, well, I am not entirely sure about from cli...but you may need to autoconfig.....I'm not positive...that's why I'd check kismet
[21:38] <RickJames> 7.10 sucks
[21:38] <snkmad> Flannel even wine repos still not updated
[21:39] <Moozemunga> !fluxbox
[21:39] <Rug> Fluxbox + Conky = all the eyecandy I ever want
[21:39] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: If you are sure that works, then, just manual configure
[21:39] <ubotu> fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox
[21:39] <cyphase> VINCHENZO28: you can install it via synaptic
[21:39] <RickJames> now it's froze on installing brub
[21:39] <minimec> Rug: Fluxbox is a nice WM, I agree with you, but now I prefer e17
[21:39] <cyphase> RickJames: why?
[21:39] <koudelka_> VINCHENZO28: it's not installed by default you need to install it yourself
[21:39] <N3oXid> When I run a su myuser, then a detacched screen and logout, I can't do a screen -r : Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/1' - please check.
[21:39] <Psi-Jack> RickJames: No, no it doesn't.
[21:39] <RickJames> anyone know where a windows xp torrent is ?
[21:39] <torrente> olem_: what is the printer's name ?
[21:39] <DemonJester> Brandon_, try here http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/28
[21:39] <olem_> torrente: my printer name is "PDF"
[21:39] <RickJames> i've been trying for 2 hours to reinstall7.10 on a machine
[21:39] <sethness> Can anybody help me with my previously asked audio problem?
[21:39] <Psi-Jack> RickJames: Windows XP? Hahahaha. Troll.
[21:39] <JimmyDee> !piracy
[21:39] <ubotu> piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o
[21:39] <Taza> Psi-Jack: Troll.
[21:39] <RickJames> and it refuses
[21:39] <Taza> RickJames: Try a REAL operating system. Go to #debian
[21:40] <acdcZZTOP> RickJames
[21:40] <olem_> torrente: you wanna see my /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf file?
[21:40] <acdcZZTOP> if you're in ubuntu
[21:40] <okeefenokee> purpzey: Ok, let's see...
[21:40] <Winball> loel
[21:40] <acdcZZTOP> try WINE
[21:40] <Taza> RickJames: I'm looking at Ubuntu ONLY because it has better packages for my system.
[21:40] <oscaruss> hi people
[21:40] <RickJames> sure and i need a desktop not a server
[21:40] <Psi-Jack> Anyway.
[21:40] <BulkyoUeno> hii all
[21:40] <Taza> Because I can't compile them myself on my hardware. Same reason I can't install Gentoo.
[21:40] <gnurph69> I have a USB drive but I can't write to the **** thing; owned by root; I tried changing the permissions as root, but they don't seem to stick.  Ideas anybody?
[21:40] <BulkyoUeno> i need help pls
[21:40] <RickJames> <-- using ubuntu and loving it
[21:40] <torrente> olem_: could you pastebin this file?
[21:40] <pike_> RickJames: ill let you in on a secret..most people in ubuntu are actually running frebsd
[21:40] <RickJames> but this stupid HP refuses to reload 7.10
[21:40] <Taza> RickJames: Debian works fine on desktop. In fact, Ubuntu is based on Debian.
[21:40] <osmosis> is there a way to disable rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules  so that it stops doing that.
[21:40] <cyphase> RickJames: what's happening?
[21:41] <Urthmover> hey ubuntu is better because it just works  (usually)
[21:41] <RickJames> i have 6 machines at home with ubuntu, i'm only complaining about one
[21:41] <Taza> Urthmover: Bwaha. I've NEVER seen Debian work worse than Ubuntu.
[21:41] <olem_> torrente: ddc send?
[21:41] <Urthmover> :-)
[21:41] <Brandon_> DemonJester, that's not very useful as I need to insert the script just at level 5 in S21
[21:41] <torrente> olem_: pastebin.com
[21:41] <hvgotcodes> l33txor: yeah its under themes, go to customize and then the icons tab.
[21:41] <Taza> Urthmover: As I said, I'm here only because Ubuntu has better support for some specialized packages I need.
[21:41] <Urthmover> ubuntu is better than windows 95 OSR2
[21:42] <Brandon_> DemonJester, I'm allowed to do that manually right?
[21:42] <RickJames> cyphase, i use the alt cd instaler and it gets to the 77% gathering info for installation, and hangs
[21:42] <nuububuntu> can anyone help? is there any way to rescan usb connections - i can only see 1 of 3 drives
[21:42] <acdcZZTOP> After upgrading from 7.04FF to 7.10GG, i've had a world of problems. thinking it was a mistake altogether.
[21:42] <arghh2d2> anybody know anything about fvwm-crystal?  specifically, an easy way to add programs to menu's?
[21:42] <Taza> Urthmover: I'd use Windows 2000, XP or heck ANY windows over default Ubuntu
[21:42] <Urthmover> Ubuntu has SCHWINGG
[21:42] <RickJames> cyphase, then, i use t he OEM install and it hangs on installing grub
[21:42] <cyphase> hmm
[21:42] <pike_> ubuntu is generally preffered if you need more community support its not really superior to debian but has a great community and a few better gui tools for dealing with nonfree stuff
[21:42] <icheishvili> acdcZZTOP: it's been a joy for me--is your hardware not supported or something?
[21:42]  * cyphase had no problems with Gutsy
[21:42] <[chr0n0s]> Taza, try vista over ubuntu
[21:42] <RickJames> cyphase, i have a hp 3.5 ghz w/ 256 sys ram and an nvidia 125 geforce, and it won't load the GUI installer
[21:42] <berkan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42287/
[21:42] <gnurph69> I have a USB drive but I can't write to the **** thing; owned by root; I tried changing the permissions as root, but they don't seem to stick.  Ideas anybody?
[21:42] <Psi-Jack> FINALLY! I got my ssh key to work on my ubuntu-server. heh. Dang thing wouldn't even READ the .ssh/authorized_keys unless the home dir was chmod g-w
[21:43] <BulkyoUeno> i use ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn, and i am trying using vi, when i type 'test', then i press up key on my keyboard... it would type 'A' and the 'test' is entered to lower new lane, how can that happend ? when i press down key it type 'B', i press left 'D', i press right 'C'
[21:43] <berkan> Guys, i installed the drivers on ati.com
[21:43] <pike_> debian does all the heavy lifting though
[21:43] <Moozemunga> h
[21:43] <acdcZZTOP> Well i have 2 pieces of hardware im trynig to use it on
[21:43] <BulkyoUeno> help plss
[21:43] <DemonJester> Brandon_, try update-rc.d ircbot start 21 5 . stop 21 0 1 6 .
[21:43] <Taza> Urthmover: I'm installing the very minimal install and then building it up to my preferences - much like I'd do with Debian if I wouldn't have to recompile the kernel for some modules which I can't do.
[21:43] <acdcZZTOP> desktop and laptop
[21:43] <berkan> but they dont get detected or something
[21:43] <Psi-Jack> Or, at least: drwxr-xr-x
[21:43] <okeefenokee> purpzey: OK, tried to fire kismet up, got the message "FATAL: Please configure at least one packet source.  Kismet will not function if no packet sources are defined in kismet.conf or on the command line.  Please read the README for more information about configuring Kismet." Got any quick solution for this or should I read the README? ;)
[21:43] <olem_> torrente: http://pastebin.com/mecec189
[21:43] <cyphase> RickJames: i don't know what to tell you.. i've installed it on 3 different computers, and it worked fine each time (with the exception of having to use ndiswrapper for wifi)
[21:43] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Did you run it as sudo?
[21:43] <slaytanic> Why does Ubuntu install a SMP kernel on my UP system?
[21:43] <acdcZZTOP> the desktop, the display is very bad. the images bleed red to the right, and its very hard on my eyes, and i cant use my 85hz refresh rate
[21:43] <JimmyDee> berkan, sorry to hear that
[21:43] <Urthmover> oh don't be a pu$$y  Taza go rebuild a kernel
[21:43] <acdcZZTOP> and on my laptop, the wireless wont work
[21:43] <okeefenokee> purpzey: aye
[21:43] <berkan> oops wrong place
[21:43] <acdcZZTOP> ive tried using the ndiswrapper and wicd
[21:43] <acdcZZTOP> nothin
[21:43] <Urthmover> go write some drivers
[21:43] <Taza> Urthmover: I can't rebuild the kernel on my hardware.
[21:43] <Psi-Jack> slaytanic: It's default. I don't recall seeing a UP-compiled kernel.
[21:43] <Urthmover> it fun
[21:43] <Taza> Urthmover: Otherwise I would.
[21:44] <Urthmover> :-)
[21:44] <c0Ld> is anyone experienced willing/able to walk me through the installation of the newest ATI driver (8.42.3)? I've never done the installation myself and don't want to screw it up.
[21:44] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Check the readme to get the right syntax, but I think you just need to set to wlan0 etc...in a config file
[21:44] <DemonJester> Brandon_, make sure the name of your script in /etc/init.d is ircbot then run the update-rc.d command listed above it will automatically create the links for you
[21:44] <Urthmover> I learned how to grep the other day
[21:44] <Urthmover> lol
[21:44] <Psi-Jack> c0Ld: Use the Restricted Drivers manager. It'll do it for you.
[21:44] <darwin81> What happens if I put an AMD64 CD in an x86 machine?
[21:44] <Urthmover> and threw in some df for good measure
[21:44] <slaytanic> Psi-Jack: So there's just a generic SMP kernel, it's not that the installer fsck'ed up or anything, right?
[21:44] <Taza> Urthmover: The hardware I'm working is VERY restricted HDD-wise and requires support for encrypted drives.
[21:44] <Urthmover> a dash of iptraf   and I was surfin the net
[21:44] <Psi-Jack> slaytanic: Right.
[21:44] <slaytanic> Psi-Jack: Cool. Thankies.
[21:44] <Brandon_> DemonJester, yeah it's there It has a start function. It should have one of those right?
[21:45] <Psi-Jack> slaytanic: SMP kernels work fine with UP systems. Really has no benefits or debenefits for that.
[21:45] <c0Ld> Psi-Jack: It will upgrade me to the version just recently released? I don't see any such option =|
[21:45] <olem> torrente: ok?
[21:45] <Urthmover> I was working on a mod for irssi #intomybrain_bluetooth
[21:45] <BulkyoUeno> anyone ?
[21:45] <evolutionize> Can anyone tell me if Evolution actually comes with a system tray notifier or do I have to install it to make the plugin work.
[21:45] <Urthmover> I can't get the interface drives to go organic on me tho
[21:45] <DemonJester> Brandon_, yes are you getting an error when running update-rc.d?
[21:45] <Brandon_> no
[21:45] <FluxD> evolutionize: I dont think so but u cn using alltray
[21:45] <PurpZeY> evolutionize: I don't know, but I'd imagine there is some documenation on that
[21:45] <Brandon_> I just restered
[21:46] <Urthmover> everything melts in the eustacian tube
[21:46] <Brandon_> DemonJester, it would seem the script isn't running I guess
[21:46] <nuububuntu> guys can anyone help me access 2 external usb 2 drives...can only see 1 of 3 connected? ta
[21:46] <torrente> olem_: i am seeing
[21:46] <Psi-Jack> SWEEET!
[21:46] <DemonJester> Brandon_, is it chmodded 755?
[21:46] <minimec> evolutionize: The systray notifier is started at the beginning of the gnome session. You may have to add it in <system<session if you updated from feisty

[21:49] <m4ytt> hi can some 1 tell me if frostwire is meant to be a shell script and not an executable because i cant get it to run from usr/bin
[21:49] <Brandon_> DemonJester, http://rafb.net/p/9dZNty17.html <--- anything spelled wrong. What is the pid thing? Do I have to make it or is it autmatic?
[21:49] <Brandon_> DemonJester, do I need exit 0?

[21:49] <aolaus> neither sudo gedit or gksudo gedit work
[21:50] <minimec> evolutionize: I am not sure, because I don't use it. There is a package called mail-notification-evolution. This one should be installed.
[21:50] <m4ytt> hi can some 1 tell me if frostwire is meant to be a shell script and not an executable because i cant get it to run from usr/bin
[21:50] <FluxD> aolaus: u cant edit files?

[21:50] <SirBob1701> hey guys i'm reformatting my main drive to take care of a compiz issue (tried working it out for hours with the compiz team) and i was wondering if there is anything in the way of fedora's quickstart so i can quicly reinstall all the programs i have without having to write them all down
[21:50] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: Any progress, did I miss your line?
[21:50] <minimec> evolutionize: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/gnome/mail-notification-evolution
[21:50] <aolaus> so I can't edit any of those pretty config files
[21:51] <FluxD> Brandon_: ??
[21:51] <m4ytt> hi can some 1 tell me if frostwire is meant to be a shell script and not an executable because i cant get it to run from usr/bin
[21:51] <evolutionize> minimec: I saw that, but that looks to be like a complete POP checker and notifier and the -evolution looks like it is a plugin for evolution. I'll take another look
[21:51] <okeefenokee> purpzey: Well, I'm learning all the time ;) Trying to figure out what cardtype I have
[21:51] <Brandon_> FluxD, you CTCP'ed me and joined the channel gpwiki channel. Just curious
[21:51] <Brandon_> ?
[21:51] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: For configuring kismet?
[21:51] <torrente> olem_: thanks
[21:51] <FluxD> Brandon_: I was wondering if u were someone I knew :)
[21:51] <Brandon_> oh
[21:52] <aolaus> f*ck it, i'll just use one of the 5 other text editors
[21:52] <okeefenokee> purpzey: Yup
[21:52] <DemonJester> Brandon_, if the script is in /etc/init.d/ try running it directly and see if it works
[21:52] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: What is it asking for, chipset?
[21:52] <FluxD> Brandon_: goes to same place as u
[21:52] <okeefenokee> purpzey: http://www.desertsol.com/~kevin/ppc/kismet.conf
[21:52] <pike_> m4ytt: its a java app so something like #!/usr/bin/bash; cd /frostwirebinarylocation/; java -jar frostwire.jar
[21:52] <graelb> hi!
[21:52] <minimec> evolutionize: Well... if you giveme 10 minutes to smoke a cigarette I will boot up my notebook. I have the evolution notifier working on it... ;)
[21:52] <gnurph69> I have a USB drive but I can't write to it; it's owned by root; I tried changing the permissions as root, but they don't seem to stick.  Anybody have any helpful ideas?
[21:53] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: ok, bear with me, I'll check it out.
[21:53] <FluxD> gnurph69: ntfs?
[21:53] <olem> torrente: you're welcome. Is your issue fixed?

[21:53] <olem> torrente: ok. see ya so
[21:53] <torrente> olem_: me too
[21:53] <FluxD> gnurph69: ext3?
[21:54] <evolutionize> minimec: Sounds like a good idea, I believe I'll do the same!
[21:54] <gnurph69> Fluxd:  let's see...gparted shows a fat16 partiton and an ext2 partition.  I want to make the ext2 partition RW.
[21:55] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: I'm sorry, I managing two things at once, you said you need the card type?
[21:55] <]Spectre[> hi to all. I can't run gnome anymore,the system restart to the text mode,what can I do to resume gnome ? thanks to all
[21:55] <b0lland> Hi #ubuntu, during the standard configuration/installation of ubuntu one chooses graphical mode for the console (outside of X).  Can anyone please tell me where I can change this option, or any good keywords to google?
[21:55] <okeefenokee> purpzey: Yup, I'm trying to figure out which I have. Googling is slow work !
[21:56] <FluxD> gnurph69: so ur usb drive is ext2 bu read only?

[22:03] <gnurph69> FluxD:  gparted shows the partition as unmounted...but there's no option to mount it.
[22:03] <DemonJester> Brandon_, yep, your original script looks like it is for a BSD system based on the file paths. Here you go http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/28
[22:03] <FluxD> gnurph69: double click it or right clikcand mount
[22:03] <m4ytt> pike_  if it helps yes please
[22:04] <gnurph69> FluxD:  mount isn't an option.
[22:04] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: I believe that is going to be the name you give it in the conf file.
[22:04] <PurpZeY> okeefenokee: as type.
[22:04] <gnurph69> FluxD:  status:  "not mounted" - but there's no option to mount it.
[22:04] <pike_> m4ytt: im assuming you didnt install this from a deb file or this would be working. also make sure you sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre; sudo update-alternatives --config java

[22:05] <Nemizz> Instaling ubuntu now, but I have a problem. How du get Ubuntu now were to have swap?(sorry my bad English...)
[22:05] <Gnimsh> hey everybody
[22:05] <okeefenokee> purpzey: let's see
[22:06] <m4ytt> pike_ the file name  is frostwire-4.13.3.i586.deb
[22:06] <ryan> I'm having trouble with Ubuntu & Gnome -- new application windows are not respecting the space of the top menu bar in Gnome... Firefox & Thunderbird (and other applications) open with their title bar underneath the menu that stretches the length of the top of the screen... I have to hide the menu (or ALT+SPACE with the application in focus and then select MOVE) and then grab the title bar and the show the menu again ... it's very annoying.
[22:06] <PurpZeY> Nemizz: You need to have swap, and in addition, there are language suppot channels
[22:06] <fantum13> Nemizz: format a partition to "linux-swap" and it'll automatically be used as swap. All you really need is 1 gig or so
[22:06] <ryan> any way in Gnome to make the menu bar actually have substance so things can't go over and under it?
[22:06] <pike_> m4ytt: make sure you follow those steps for the apt-get and update-alternatives then it should work
[22:06] <pike_> m4ytt: i can tell you how to set it up with the tar.gz though
[22:07] <Gnimsh> So, I just installed gutsy gibbon and now grub doesn't show my windows installation at all
[22:07] <Nemizz> you format it to linux-swap in gparted
[22:07] <LiMaO> ryan: my applications never go over any of my menus. 1st thing, are you using compiz? what version of ubuntu?
[22:07] <okeefenokee> purpzey: Yep, kismet runs as a dream!
[22:07] <bitnew> nick bitnew
[22:07] <anonymous_> evolutionize: I was playing with that compiz extras and I picked some stuff and then it stopped switching i've removed the compiz and choose normal but yet nothing
[22:07] <fantum13> Nemizz: yes, all you need is one gigabyte, two at the maximum.
[22:07] <gnurph69> FluxD:  disks now mounted

[22:17] <ebirtaid> sometimes they include older versions in the repos, and it creates problems
[22:17] <fantum13> delta16: so you need the /dev/whatever file?
[22:17] <FluxD> gnurph69: oops do sudo chmod 777 /media/ur folder
[22:17] <ebirtaid> but it does suck

[22:29] <Junkie`> Well, i'll check back later... i guess i can keep googling
[22:29] <m4ytt> pike_ both sucessful
[22:29] <Red\\> hi
[22:29] <c0Ld> I installed the newest ATI drivers with this guide ( http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide ) and they don't seem to be working -- I can't enable compiz and my output for fglrxinfo ifglrxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[22:30] <Gamma-X> Who is the person in charge of ubuntus "HR"
[22:30] <pike_> m4ytt: good now sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre; sudo update-alternatives --config java     then frost should just work - assuming i didnt mispell anything :)
[22:30] <ebirtaid> fn'Tat2Yak: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102 follow the ndiswrapper instructions
[22:30] <kidicarus> aw man, even my freakin dvds are b&w
[22:30] <ebirtaid> gamma-x:  check their website?
[22:30] <minimec> acdcZZTOP: http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_8.42.3.html
[22:30] <pike_> m4ytt: like i say this is the hard way. im not familiar with the graphical tools
[22:30] <fantum13> ebirtaid: what makes you think he needs ndiswrapper?
[22:30] <ebirtaid> I doubt a support channel will tell you
[22:31] <LiMaO> e4t: you can also check the md5 of the cd you already have, to make sure it's perfect
[22:31] <c0Ld> I installed the newest ATI drivers with this guide ( http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide ) and they don't seem to be working -- I can't enable compiz and my output for fglrxinfo ifglrxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" -- can anyone help out?
[22:31] <ebirtaid> fantum13:  I have the same chipset and had the same problem?
[22:31] <ir4d0m> any ip changer thingys that a linux newb can set up by himself?
[22:31] <m4ytt> pike_ neither am i
[22:31] <anonymous__> hey, I can't switch workspaces no more
[22:31] <e4t> LiMaO: yes I've checked it. it's perfect.
[22:32] <e4t> LiMaO: thanks for the suggestion. once I get into Ubuntu I'm fine, just I've never really had a problem with the installation before.
[22:32] <m4ytt> pike_  javas installing. did i mess up my list
[22:32] <pike_> m4ytt: no list is good
[22:32] <ebirtaid> ir4dom:  maybe you were banned for a reason?
[22:32] <miha> now i have to enter the video card's bus indentifier
[22:32] <m4ytt> pike_ i mean before u gave me a new one
[22:32] <miha> where can i see this
[22:33] <pike_> m4ytt: maybe. you shouldt have unless you edited it manually. things do happen though
[22:33] <AYBABTU> ir4d0m, get the backtrack2 slax live cd for leet toys l33t toys
[22:33] <fantum13> ebirtaid: his problem doesn't have anything to do with drivers, it has to do with the repos, unless I missed something
[22:33] <LiMaO> e4t: well, as you don't get any output error msg from the cd, it becomes difficult to trace the problem. but using the alternate should give you a chance of having it done. sorry for not being able to give any really helpful tips
[22:33] <ir4d0m> ill google search it
[22:33] <ebirtaid> fnatum13:  he could install fwcutter if he has a wired connection and it might work
[22:33] <fantum13> ir4d0m: google for a proxy and use the GNOME proxy settings interface to set it up, or use tor
[22:34] <snkmad> how do i enable/disable the deskbar applet?
[22:34] <ebirtaid> I am telling him a surefire working method which I used and am using wireless on now
[22:34] <m4ytt> pike_ i did change it manually i think
[22:34] <m4ytt> m4ytt@m4ytts:~$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
[22:34] <pike_> m4ytt: the mediabuntu repo will give you access to the codecs and stuff that im assuming youll want if you are using frostwire
[22:34] <m4ytt> There are 5 alternatives which provide `java'.
[22:34] <m4ytt>   Selection    Alternative

[22:36] <bqmassey> where are drive letter designations stored?
[22:36] <AYBABTU> ir4d0m, makes no difference, backtrack runs on livecd, it will have pre installed tor as well as an ip changer and heaps of ip tools

[22:37] <pike_> Luigi: can you pastebin your entire sources.list file?
[22:37] <KaiForce> are updates coming out to address issues people have been having?
[22:37] <ebirtaid> kaiforce: it has been released, if you want to try it give it a go

[22:38] <Master-DOS> does anyone knows how to configure the fn keys of a sony vaio FE series???
[22:38] <AYBABTU> KaiForce, check compatability with your hardware first maybe
[22:38] <Master-DOS> on gutsy
[22:38] <pike_> Luigi: or just replace it with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42288/
[22:38] <MEtaLpREs> ok i just have to say Ubuntu smokes the pants off Kubuntu,  i had so many problems with kubuntu, nothing was working right and it kept crashing all over the place, ubuntu is running 100% perfect doing everything i couldnt get kubuntu to do
[22:38] <m4ytt> pike_ cheers mate whats mediabuntu repo

[22:38] <KaiForce> good call aybabtu
[22:38] <orangefly> minmec, nothing....i installed with and without automatix, automatix last....where does automatix install software....???....

[22:39] <AYBABTU> coolrazor007, to reboot?
[22:39] <pike_> m4ytt: nonfree stuff that could get ubuntu in trouble
[22:39] <Luigi> pike_ , sorry, but where exactly is sources.list? :-/
[22:39] <coolrazor007> naw, to login remotely on a Windows box.  It is "locked"
[22:39] <KaiForce> Intel Pro Wireless 3945
[22:39] <pike_> m4ytt: dvd decryption and stuff.
[22:39] <Winball> pike_ /etc/apt/sources.list
[22:39] <minimec> orangefly: I have no idea. I do not use crossover. If you start the menu app 'alacarte'? Maybe it is not activated.
[22:40] <DarkLinux> does anyone know how to install ubuntu with Opensuse and use suse's bootloader???
[22:40] <pike_> Luigi: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list  will open your text editor with admin rights
[22:40] <pike_> DarkLinux: is suse lilo or grub?
[22:40] <m4ytt> pike_oh ok cheers. now ive got ubuntu set up to do ma normal stuff im gonna go through every instruction on how to use it thanks again
[22:40] <DarkLinux> suse is GRUB
[22:40] <KaiForce> 945GM graphics adapter
[22:40] <KaiForce> i think that is intel
[22:41] <AYBABTU> coolrazor007, dunno soz
[22:41] <salah> Hello. Is there any way to run a command at the first of the boot? Because my wifi card requires that the power is on, and I have to restart the computer each time because the turn-on takes effect after restart
[22:42] <DarkLinux> I guess my question is-  Can I-  install ubuntu with opensuse,  not destory opensuse, have 1 bootloader?
[22:42] <linuxnewb> salah: put a script in /etc/rc2.d (or whatever runlevel you use)
[22:42] <Lordveda> !find xserver-xorg-video-via
[22:42] <ubotu> Found: xserver-xorg-video-via
[22:42] <c0Ld> I installed the newest ATI drivers with this guide ( http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide ) and they don't seem to be working -- I can't enable compiz and my output for fglrxinfo ifglrxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" -- can anyone help out?
[22:42] <coolrazor007> aybabtu: any idea on where to find out how to send ctrl alt del through vnc?  I tried googling already.
[22:42] <Luigi> finished pike_
[22:42] <miha> pike_: i have done the first point of the tutorial but now it wants from me to enter the video card's bus indentifier. but i dont kvow where this card is connected because i'm using a laptop computer
[22:42] <KaiForce> marvell yukon nic
[22:42] <minimec> salah: You could start your computer in recovery mode, but that wifi-thing sounds strange to me.
[22:42] <salah> linuxnewb, what is the difference of run levels?
[22:42] <KaiForce> any known issues jumping out at anyone?
[22:43] <Luigi> Should I kill Firefox before upgrading?
[22:43] <pike_> miha: just hit enter to use default if you are unsure
[22:43] <AYBABTU> coolrazor007, are you trying to reboot the Windows pc though?
[22:43] <mc44> c0Ld:  sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
[22:43] <FusionMan> Luigi, yes.  It updates firefox with ubuntu extension
[22:43] <linuxnewb> it's a way to customize various services that are enabled.
[22:43] <pike_> miha: the driver and the screen settings (what size) are the big things
[22:43] <KaiForce> or is there a good place to look for known compatibility issues?
[22:43] <linuxnewb> you can specify the default runlevel or , when you do reboot - which runlevel you want to try next
[22:43] <Luigi> Thank you FusionMan
[22:43] <c0Ld> mc44: That fixed one problem, thanks ;p
[22:44] <pike_> Luigi: you replaced with the pastebinned stuff?
[22:44] <coolrazor007> aybabtu: no, I'm at the login screen on a M$ box.  I need to ctrl alt del so I can put in the user and pass to login
[22:44] <salah> linuxnewb, but the wifi should be turned on before the network is enabled, any idea which runlevel?
[22:44] <mc44> c0Ld: what other problems?
[22:44] <Luigi> Yes pike_
[22:44] <coldboot> Has anyone got vmware workstation or server working properly on Ubuntu? My bridged networking isn't functioning at all...
[22:44] <pike_> Luigi: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade     hopefully will work :)
[22:44] <mehevi> Hi guys, I am having a problem with my mouse cursor.  When I select a theme for my mouse it enables it, but when I mouse over my panel it is back to default.  I have saved my session and rebooted, yet it still persistes.  7.10 Xubuntu
[22:44] <KaiForce> coldboot did you do the any-any update?
[22:44] <FusionMan> Is there a way to allow multiple GUI run times on Ubuntu?
[22:44] <coldboot> It doesn't give any error messages on startup, it simply doesn't do anything
[22:44] <c0Ld> mc44: glxinfo | grep direct says I don't have direct rendering
[22:44] <coldboot> KaiForce: Yeah, and I have vmmon and vmmnet compiled.
[22:45] <DarkLinux> I guess my question is-  Can I-  install ubuntu with opensuse,  not destory opensuse, have 1 bootloader?
[22:45] <rb007> I've tried asking this in the rails channel, but I couldn't find an ubuntu-specific answer.  I'm trying to install rails on Gutsy Gibbon with these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RubyOnRails -- When I get to sudo gem update --system it says "sudo gem update --system - Could not find rubygems-update (> 0) in any repository"
[22:45] <coldboot> KaiForce: And loaded.
[22:45] <Luigi> pike_ , wouldn't it be better to use the update manager?
[22:45] <Lordveda> Please help with installation of via s3 official driver on Ubuntu 7.10
[22:45] <edugonch> Does some body know how to make a file transfer with pidgin in a googletalk account?
[22:45] <notv> anyone know how to get freebob working?
[22:45] <rb007>  I saw this issue: http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2007/2/6/in-case-you-re-having-trouble-installing-gems -- but I don't see any source_cache file after following those instructions.
[22:45] <pavan> hello all ubuntu fans
[22:45] <c0Ld> mc44: compiz also still won't enable, but im guessing the two might be related.
[22:45] <KaiForce> hmm, sounds like it should be working
[22:45] <mc44> c0Ld: did you turn on direct redering in xorg.conf?
[22:45] <smacfarl> off topic question: Any news on OiNK?
[22:45] <coldboot> KaiForce: Any ideas?
[22:45] <pike_> Luigi: i suppose. ive never used the manager i wont be much help with it
[22:45] <sioux> hi
[22:45] <Lordveda> edugonch: send file?
[22:45] <pavan> :)
[22:45] <edugonch> yes, but does not work
[22:45] <sioux> i have a problem here with gutsy
[22:46] <FusionMan> sioux, elaborate.
[22:46] <c0Ld> mc44: it was on before i followed the guide to install the new driver =|, im not quite sure how to enable it if it got disabled somehow along the way
[22:46] <mc44> c0Ld: you're going to be disappointed with the slow performance when you do get it working, just so you know ;)
[22:46] <Luigi> pike_: is the GPG error with medibuntu a problem?
[22:46] <sioux>  rhythmbox sh: jackd: not found
[22:46] <KaiForce> i assume your net config is valid for the net you are physically connected to... did you run through the network setup (ie assign the right adapter to the bridge?)
[22:46] <mc44> c0Ld: how could it have been on before?
[22:46] <c0Ld> mc44: figures, then begins the two hour process of reverting to the old ones
[22:46] <AYBABTU> coolrazor007, its here http://www.realvnc.com/pipermail/vnc-list/2001-April/021766.html
[22:46] <xypezza> ; /me waves!
[22:46] <DarkLinux> Anyone???-  Can I-  install ubuntu with opensuse,  not destory opensuse, have 1 bootloader?
[22:46] <FusionMan> sioux, have you tried uninstalling it and re installing it?
[22:46] <Jimb> Luigi no
[22:46] <mc44> c0Ld: this is the first driver to support it
[22:46] <minimec> salah: Your wifi-problem sounds strange to me. It could be a problem of the network-manager. Maybe this could be a solution for you ... http://ralph.n3rds.net/index.php?/archives/194-Replace-network-manager-by-WICD.html
[22:47] <pike_> Luigi: yeah wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update
[22:47] <AnRkey> !webmin
[22:47] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system
[22:47] <sioux> FusionMan: of course
[22:47] <pike_> Luigi: then sudo apt-get update again will fix
[22:47] <AYBABTU> coolrazor007, If you click on the VNC Icon in the upper-left corner of the viewer
[22:47] <AYBABTU> window/title bar, it shows a menu that includes an entry for sending the
[22:47] <AYBABTU> Crtl-Alt-Del keystroke.
[22:47] <mc44> c0Ld: have a look in your xorg.conf for the extensions, composite bit
[22:47] <FusionMan> sioux, some don't you never know : )
[22:47] <pike_> Luigi: or just ignore it for now
[22:47] <bqmassey> besides the boot loader, is there anything that will get screwed up if i format and reinstall my XP installation
[22:47] <FusionMan> sioux, is your sound working other than this?
[22:47] <c0Ld> mc44: Option	    "Composite" "0"
[22:47] <sioux> feisty was ok
[22:47] <Luigi> pike_ : -q isn't an option apparently.
[22:47] <c0Ld> mc44: set it to 1?
[22:47] <pike_> bqmassey: just the boot loader
[22:47] <mc44> c0Ld: change 0 to Enable
[22:47] <sioux> FusionMan: yes
[22:48] <edugonch> Somebody knows how to make the file transfer work for googletalk?
[22:48] <coolrazor007> AYBABTU: yeah, that's for the realvnc package, but I'm using the default client installed in Gnome
[22:48] <mehevi> Hi guys, I am having a problem with my mouse cursor.  When I select a theme for my mouse it enables it, but when I mouse over my panel it is back to default.  I have saved my session and rebooted, yet it still persistes.  7.10 Xubuntu
[22:48] <linuxnewb> somone asked about runlevels: here's a good link http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/ref-guide/s1-boot-init-shutdown-sysv.html
[22:48] <Luigi> pike_ oops nevermind
[22:48] <KaiForce> coldboot did you get my last ?
[22:48] <aoirthoir> does anyone have an idea how to get rid of the giant VOLUME display that appears near the bottom of the screen when you change the volume on a laptop?
[22:48] <galvez> /bye
[22:48] <erat123> can anyone help me install kiba-dock or gnome-dock on ubuntu gutsy?
[22:48] <bqmassey> ok. ill ask you guys too..  my windows partition is the third on the disk.. when i installed it made the windows drive letter E: ....  any clue how I can make that partition be C: when i reinstall?
[22:49] <c0Ld> mc44: it's still disabled according to grep direct, do i need to reboot?
[22:49] <AYBABTU> coolrazor007, my bad
[22:49] <mc44> c0Ld: you need to restart x...
[22:49] <Jimb> Erat123: try avant windows navigator
[22:49] <c0Ld> mc44: k, be back in a second then
[22:49] <KaiForce> yes bq, wipe the partition before you start, make sure you don't have any labeled partitions (ie fat32)
[22:49] <coolrazor007> AYBABTU: no prob  :)
[22:49] <Luigi> Ok, I'm upgrading. Bye all!
[22:49] <erat123> Jimb: thanks, i'll look it up
[22:49] <FusionMan> Sioux, this seems to be a common problem.
[22:49] <DarkLinux> someone heres must know----  Can I-  install ubuntu with opensuse,  not destory opensuse, have 1 bootloader?
[22:49] <Jimb> Yw
[22:49] <pike_> bqmassey: not really the right chan for windows question but you can change  drive letters by right clicking on my computer and selecting disk manager or manage then go into disk manager
[22:50] <sioux> FusionMan: when I start rhythmbox I get that error.. first songs is played ok but at the next it crash
[22:50] <pike_> bqmassey: /j #ubuntu-offtopic if you have a question about it
[22:50] <KaiForce> true pike but not for system partition
[22:50] <FusionMan> sioux, was it open during install?
[22:50] <sioux> FusionMan: no
[22:50] <c0Ld> mc44: direct rendering: Yes -- you weren't kidding about the performance ;p
[22:50] <Jimb> Cant change drive letter of boot dtive
[22:50] <AYBABTU> coolrazor007, Focus on the VNC window, then hit F8.
[22:50] <Mr_Unagi> !info gnome-dock
[22:50] <ubotu> Package gnome-dock does not exist in gutsy
[22:50] <pike_> DarkLinux: yes ubuntu will automaticallly detect and setup suse to boot
[22:51] <gonzo_> server -m irc.recycled-irc.net -j #Darkside
[22:51] <mc44> c0Ld: just try watching a video ;)
[22:51] <KaiForce> where can i find hardware compatibility issues for gutsy?
[22:51] <chetnick> any good PC magazine?
[22:51] <manchicken> Anybody here got a moment to answer what's going on with openvpn not working?  It even gets as far as to say that initialization is complete, but it then just sits there.  I get a kernel message saying this though: tun0: Disabled Privacy Extensions
[22:51] <c0Ld> mc44: I don't think I want to.
[22:51] <manchicken> Anybody got any clues?
[22:51] <Toast> I can't get desktop effects working on a dual monitor setup. I hear this is a common problem. Does anyone know how to fix it? (Gutsy, Nvidea 6800 ultra, AMD64)
[22:51] <sioux> FusionMan: totem too works bad do not play any movie it just crash
[22:51] <linuxnewb> chetnick: linuxmagazine is good
[22:51] <DarkLinux> pike- thanks alot, ill prob go update now----wait one more thing, when it sets it up for boot, it will delete the other boot manager or will it combine them??
[22:51] <FusionMan> sioux, Send the report to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=454251
[22:52] <chetnick> thanks linuxnewb
[22:52] <coldboot> KaiForce: I did the any any update, and have a working and loaded vmmon and vmnet modules.
[22:52] <linuxnewb> chetnick: even better is that they put back issues online
[22:52] <coolrazor007> AYBABPTU: You........ are a genius!!  Thanks SO much.  FYI, all, to send ctrl + alt + del in vnc: use F8 key
[22:52] <sioux> FusionMan: my video card is a nvidia
[22:52] <linuxnewb> chetnick: free registration required to accesss those
[22:52] <smallfoot-> is there no LaTeX or TeX in the Ubuntu repistory?
[22:52] <FusionMan> sioux, this shouldn't be a problem.  I have nvidia and it works fine.
[22:52] <linuxnewb> smallfoot-: there better be
[22:52] <AYBABTU> coolrazor007, np ::D
[22:52] <sioux> FusionMan: gutsy?
[22:52] <KaiForce> coldboot did you bind them to the right (i forget the right terminology) vnet and did you configure the adapter you want to use to be bound to that vnet?
[22:53] <smallfoot-> linuxnewb, i dont find
[22:53] <SunmanXII> quick question - how do I assign a key combination to a process in ubuntu
[22:53] <FusionMan> Yes, of course.
[22:53] <Mr_Unagi> !gnome-dock
[22:53] <ubotu> gnome-dock is a MacOS X -like dock for the gnome desktop, see www.gnome-dock.org
[22:53] <bqmassey> pike_, i directed a question to ya in offtopic
[22:53] <linuxnewb> smallfoot-: apt-cache search tetex
[22:53] <smallfoot-> oh
[22:53] <smallfoot-> i dont know command lines, and stuff, i just want to use GUI tools
[22:53] <coldboot> KaiForce: I just went through the setup, how would I do the binding?
[22:53] <sioux> FusionMan: can you post your xorg?
[22:53] <mrCreosote> I'm new to Linux and Ubuntu and I'm having trouble with innstalling a wireless PCMCIA card. Can anyone help?
[22:53] <FusionMan> sioux, just try reinstalling gutsy, it's your best bet to avoid problems without long fixes.
[22:53] <KaiForce> coldboot I forget, let me see if i can get to my vmhost
[22:53] <linuxnewb> tetex is latex for linux
[22:53] <fantum13> Are there any issues using the nvidia-distributed binary driver on 7.10?
[22:53] <mindframe-> mrCreosote, what kind of card?
[22:54] <coldboot> KaiForce: When I made the virtual machine, I set it to bound ethernet
[22:54] <mrCreosote> Belkin F5D8010
[22:54] <oxeimon> what's the bash command to open up a terminal window?
[22:54] <sioux> FusionMan: do you have compiz-fusion?
[22:54] <linuxnewb> mrCreosote: what's the prob.  most important is to get the module installed
[22:54] <linuxnewb> oxeimon: xterm
[22:54] <FusionMan> sioux, one second.
[22:54] <smallfoot-> linuxnewb, oh so its name "tetex", didnt know, is it "tex live" or something? how many megabyte is tetex?
[22:54] <linuxnewb> smallfoot-: massive
[22:54] <oxeimon> linuxnewb: I just did that. Why's it so ugly? o.0
[22:54] <mc44> fantum13: use the restricted manager
[22:54] <fantum13> I'm on a GeForce Go 6, and every time I try to use the restricted-drivers nvidia driver, on reboot it'll punt me to BP-X, and the same thing on the one I download
[22:54] <brice> ok, installation finished on the external drive, I didn't install grub, and now when I boot up using that external drive I get 'Missing Operating system"
[22:54] <smallfoot-> can someone tell the guy who makes Ubuntu, to put in the package manager, how many megabyte a package is, when i look for packages, i dont know if its 1 mb or 90 mb
[22:54] <shiela> can some one please tell me the command to restart xserver in ubuntu
[22:54] <brice> what's wrong
[22:55] <fantum13> mc44: restricted manager will not work, is it the nvidia released one that's screwing it up?
[22:55] <smallfoot-> i just want to use 'latex2pdf' command, i dont want get massive megabytes
[22:55] <KaiForce> coldboot how did you configure the nic for the guest (what vmnet are you using)?
[22:55] <mc44> fantum13: er, if you installed both, possibly
[22:55] <oxeimon> what I want to do, is write a script to somehow open 3 terminal windows, positioned exactly as I say on the screen, with specified sizes
[22:55] <mrCreosote> Ubuntu does not support the card. I've searched the net fopr information how to solve this and I've innstalled ndiswrapper
[22:55] <fantum13> shiela: same on all X's, ctrl-alt-backspace
[22:55] <shiela> fantum13: thanks
[22:55] <coldboot> KaiForce: vmnet0 is the bridged one
[22:55] <ompaul> smallfoot-, you can report a bug - get an account on launchpad.net
[22:55] <KaiForce> i can't get to any of my vmhosts but I believe the nic configuration was part of the install process
[22:55] <coldboot> KaiForce: So I'm using vmmnet0
[22:55] <Invert314> this compiz fusion is fucking amazing
[22:55] <smallfoot-> oh ok
[22:55] <KaiForce> ok
[22:56] <smallfoot-> ompaul, thanks
[22:56] <fantum13> mc44: I've tried to remove the nvidia-glx and even linux-restricted-blah blah blah repeated times, but neither works.
[22:56] <FusionMan> xious, they changed resolution to this new software.  I don't know how it works.
[22:56] <DarkLinux> pike- thanks alot, ill prob go update now----wait one more thing, when it sets it up for boot, it will delete the other boot manager or will it combine them??

[22:56] <KaiForce> coldboot *vmnet0
[22:56] <brice> anyone?
[22:56] <coldboot> KaiForce: I'm not sure, how do do you configure it to be bridged to the right nic?
[22:56] <oxeimon> why does xterm look different from the terminal I open from Applications->Accesories?
[22:56] <AYBABTU> Invert314, is it, i havent used it yet ...got no gui O_o
[22:56] <sioux> FusionMan: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:56] <twoshadetod> whats a good, clean RSS gui?

[22:57] <minimec> twoshadetod: liferea is not bad
[22:57] <sioux> FusionMan: but are y using compiz-fusion?
[22:57] <rayb0t> oxeimon, because the one you open from applications/accessories is gnome-terminal

[22:57] <osmosis> how can I discover what compilation flags a pkg was created with ?
[22:58] <wind`> hey how do i get fsfn to start when i boot?
[22:58] <KaiForce> coldboot, from memory, when you ran the any-any update (or the vmware install) it asks you at some point if you want to reconfigure networking, say yes to set up the bindings
[22:58] <AYBABTU> Invert314, yeah, just for a while, see how long i can put up without gui and actually learn linux .D , been going abooout 4 months
[22:58] <DarkLinux>  when it sets it up for boot, it will delete the other (opensuse) boot manager or will it combine them??
[22:58] <linuxnewb> oxeimon: xterm has a ton of switches (options)
[22:58] <igiovanni> buona sera a tutti
[22:58] <jaredthane> I'm trying to convert videos(mov, avi, ogg) to flash format (flv). I'm using ffmpeg, but it says it doesn't have any of the codecs. How is that if I can play the videos in movie player?
[22:58] <twoshadetod> how do i get an application to always focus itself when launched? i have a good terminal program i like but sometimes it doens't "pop up to the top"
[22:58] <sioux> FusionMan: use pastebin
[22:58] <c0Ld> mc44: mm, I'm trying to revert to my old driver and it hates me :(
[22:58] <linuxnewb> oxeimon: you may actually want gnome-terminal
[22:58] <twoshadetod> and thanks minimec im checkign it out now
[22:58] <oxeimon> linuxnewb: yeah I think I want gnome-terminal. I'm looking at its man now
[22:58] <coldboot> KaiForce: I can just run vmware-config.pl now
[22:58] <Invert314> AYBABTU, that is so cool
[22:58] <fantum13> mc44: could BP-X be punting me into vesa because it doesn't recognize the driver I'm using?
[22:58] <KaiForce> yes that is correct
[22:59] <mc44> c0Ld: er, haven't tried that, I wouldn't recommend it ;l)
[22:59] <AYBABTU> Invert314, :D
[22:59] <KaiForce> sorry, i'm working from memory
[22:59] <Invert314> AYBABTU, do you use links to browse the internet?
[22:59] <brice> ok, installation finished on the external drive, I didn't install grub, and now when I boot up using that external drive I get 'Missing Operating system"
[22:59] <KaiForce> i'm only equipped with 32MB
[22:59] <mc44> fantum13: it's probably a problem with the driver, I don't know what though.
[22:59] <sioux> FusionMan: than post the url
[22:59] <AYBABTU> Invert314, mean lynx? yeah
[22:59] <delta16> any idea how to retireve the usb device path ??

[23:01] <linuxnewb> mrCreosote: do you know which module it needs?
[23:01] <igiovanni> buona sera a tutti
[23:01] <linuxnewb> delta16: after you plug it in and out, see if dmesg gives you clues

[23:01] <mrCreosote> Sorry for sounding very stupid here - but I do not know what a module is - completly new to Linux:-(
[23:01] <DarkLinux> mrCreosote : it's pretty simple to use
[23:02] <KaiForce> its a driver mrcreosote

[23:08] <napster> Hi. im trying 2 install gutsy and im having major issues. from wat iv read i think i might need to use the only ubiquity thing but i have no clue wat it is or how 2 use it. can any1 help me out?
[23:08] <linuxnewb> delta16: what did cdrecord give you (if anything)
[23:08] <m4ytt> pike_ ok ive got limewire on windows but thought id try frostwire. only came across it today looking through ubuntu forums
[23:08] <minimec> delta16: Did you do what I told you?
[23:08] <wildman> hello there, looks like I had a pb with an external HDD connected through USB and the next time I turned it on, it told me it couldn't mount the partition where I have all my data stored. I run e2fsck on it and answered yes to all questions asked for repair/delete/restore/etc.
[23:09] <pike_> m4ytt: sometimes youll have a problem with lime sometimes frost.. its a crapshoot really :)
[23:09] <napster> ubotu: only ubiquity
[23:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about only ubiquity - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[23:09] <wildman> after e2fsck finished, turned the disk off and then back on... to find out that my data dir is NOT there anymore, and I have 150GB used, though no dirs on the partition, except a recreated lost+found
[23:09] <Flannel> napster: Ubiquity is the liveCD (Desktop) instller.  If you have problems with that, the alternate CD has an installer that works in more places.
[23:10] <Flannel> napster: do you mean the only-ubiquity boot option for the liveCD?
[23:10] <wildman> any ideas on how to recover those dirs? (I know data IS there, but it's not accessible right now) how do I recreate the journal for the ext3 fs now 'downgraded' to ext2 after the check?
[23:10] <c0Ld> mc44: I think it broke again :(
[23:10] <delta16> cdrecord gives also info about the memory , but not the cellphone itself
[23:10] <wind`> yo how do i get fsfn to start on boot?
[23:10] <napster> Flannel: yes. i was readin bout it but couldn't really find an answer
[23:10] <c0Ld> mc44: fglrxinfo is showing "Xlib:  extension "ATIFGLRXDRI" missing on display ":0.0"" and "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual!"
[23:10] <wind`> i know i cna start the thing with "sudo fsfn" but how do i get it to... start automatically
[23:11] <mc44> c0Ld: what did you do?
[23:11] <Flannel> napster: Specify 'only-ubiquity' as a boot option, that would be the CD menu, I believe
[23:11] <wind`> anyone help?
[23:12] <napster> sorry. im a real noob. how do i do that?
[23:12] <c0Ld> mc44: I uh, -think- I successfully went back to the old driver (compiz is working), but I'm not sure if it was all that successful? Everything's running fine, but that command just isn't working.
[23:12] <napster> Flannel: sorry. im a real noob. how do i do that?
[23:12] <linuxnewb> Flannel: F6
[23:12] <linuxnewb> oops that was meant fo rnapster
[23:13] <mc44> c0Ld: er, dunno then :/
[23:13] <linuxnewb> s/rnapster/napster
[23:13] <napster> linuxweb: hit F6 and then just type only-ubiquity
[23:13] <napster> ?
[23:13] <m4ytt> pike_ is it only on linux that you get these problems because i never had any problems with limewire on widnowz
[23:13] <[chr0n0s]> can anyone help me with this ? --> http://pastebin.ca/750931
[23:13] <linuxnewb> napster: you will see a long list of text.  just add the boot option you want to the end of that line
[23:13] <brice> AYBABTU
[23:13] <c0Ld> mc44: Actually, that's weird as hell, compiz is working WITHOUT xgl enabled apparently, but it's running .. smooth, better then the new driver ran? o_O
[23:13] <osmosis> how come there is a freetds-dev  pkg, but no  freetds package?  lame.
[23:14] <brice> damn he left
[23:14] <arghh2d2> Can someone give me the magic command to get sound when running apps in firefox, i've tried nine million different google suggestions and i'm getting frustrated.
[23:14] <mc44> c0Ld: er, thats not possible :/
[23:14] <Mr_Unagi> is there a linux prog that will make mds into iso
[23:14] <napster> thnx. let me give it a try/
[23:14] <mc44> c0Ld: you must still be on the new driver
[23:14] <pike_> m4ytt: i just find java apps like frost and azureus to be a bit buggy but i rarely use em much.
[23:14] <thedefender> if i use synaptic to uninstall XGL will it still try and start it at each boot
[23:14] <Evanlec> pike_, agreed
[23:15] <jkimball4> Is there something I need to do to get my CPU to scale to a lower frequency?
[23:15] <crimsun_> osmosis: why would there be a freetds package?
[23:15] <c0Ld> mc44: Must be, but it's actually running very well with extra effect enabled, it wasn't before I tried to uninstall it, I think I broke it in a good way =|
[23:15] <crimsun_> osmosis: the source package (called freetds) clearly only generates the freetds-dev, tdsodbc, libsybdb5, and libct3 binary packages.
[23:15] <Slike> hi, i just installed ati's brand new graphics driver in order to enable aiglx support for my x1400m card. i removed all the ubuntu fglrx packages, xserver-xgl, and installed the new driver. everything looks ok now (3d support is ok), but i can't enable the desktop effects
[23:15] <minimec> jkimball4: After a lcean gutsy install it worked with my laptop out of the box.
[23:15] <Slike> did i forget anything?
[23:15] <mc44> c0Ld: haha, you need to tell me how ;)
[23:15] <jkimball4> minimec: What's the lowest your processor will go to?
[23:16] <pike_> Slike: might have more luck in #compiz-effects
[23:16] <jkimball4> minimec: I was under the impressions that it would scale much lower than it previously had.
[23:16] <Slike> pike_: k, thx for redirecting me :)
[23:16] <minimec> jkimball4: I have a 1.5 centrino and I can go until 600
[23:16] <pike_> Slike: er.. #compiz-fusion
[23:16] <Pici> Slike: Did you unblacklist your card, I remember seeing something in the proprietary driver steps to do that
[23:16] <linuxnewb> Mr_Unagi: what is a mds file?
[23:16] <Slike> Pici: how do I unblacklist it?
[23:16] <wildman> looks like all my data is in /lost+foudn... geez
[23:16] <jkimball4> minimec: Interesting, my centrino only goes to 1ghx
[23:16] <Mr_Unagi> type of dvd image
[23:16] <Pici> Slike: I dont know off the top of my head, sorry
[23:17] <pike_> wildman: you didnt trust ext. shoulda had more faith ;p
[23:17] <c0Ld> mc44: I just ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[23:17] <osmosis> crimsun_: but there clearly is not 'freetds' pkg. only a 'freetds-dev' package.
[23:17] <c0Ld> mc44: Didn't do anything else.
[23:17] <arghh2d2> Please someone throw me an URL or a HOWTO:  my issue is that i have sound when i'm playing rythmbox but no sound anywhere else.  I've checked forums but nothing is working so far.  I just asking here in hopes theres a cureall technique.
[23:17] <wildman> pike_, I'll give you the reason once I recover my files ;)
[23:17] <rbd> any mysql 5.1 packages available for gutsy?
[23:17] <crimsun_> osmosis: that's what I typed above :-)
[23:17] <minimec> jkimball4: hmm.. interesting...
[23:17] <wildman> pike_, family photos that I still didn't backup... :((((
[23:17] <mc44> Slike: what does fglrxinfo say?
[23:17] <cello_rasp> Slike: I dont know about the new driver bnut you may need to install frglx or w/e
[23:17] <osmosis> crimsun_: i can't get freetds though.
[23:18] <crimsun_> osmosis: because that's the name of the /source/ package.  The source package does not generate a /binary/ package of that name.
[23:18] <nickrud> Slike: the best method I've seen on http://www.howforge.com/how-setup-fglrx-8-42-3-and-compiz-ubuntu-gutsy
[23:18] <Slike> mc44: it says ATI Technologies....my type of card, 2.0.6958 release
[23:18] <osmosis> crimsun_: It seems there is no package that will give me the same results as  getting the tgz directly from freetds.org.
[23:19] <mc44> Slike: ok, did you turn on aiglx in your xorg.cong?
[23:19] <mc44> Slike: xorg.cong
[23:19] <mc44> gah
[23:19] <mc44> *xorg.conf
[23:19] <osmosis> osmosis: so I can't use a .deb.

[23:19] <crimsun_> osmosis: well, what are you attempting to replicate with the tarball?
[23:19] <crimsun_> osmosis: i.e., what functionality is missing (binary package-wise)?
[23:20] <gplunkett> hey everyone, was wondering what i should format my external hard drive to, it's just for music/movie files for linux and mac OSX?
[23:20] <kidicarus> Hey everyone
[23:20] <Mr_Unagi> gplunkett you dont have to
[23:21] <nickrud> gplunkett: format it to match the mac, linux can read that fine

[23:21] <Mr_Unagi> fat32
[23:21] <RickJames> f i have an ati card and a fresh copy of 7.10, is there a package i have to install so the glfrx drivers work?
[23:21] <nickrud> !ati | RickJames
[23:21] <ubotu> RickJames: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[23:22] <minimec> kidicarus: First time I hear that, but I agree... Nice effect ;)
[23:22] <Fish> I'm still downloading the ISO for Ubuntu.
[23:22] <gplunkett> Mr_Unagi: unfortunatly it died, so i'm reformatting
[23:22] <gplunkett> nickrud: ok thanks :)
[23:22] <Mr_Unagi> ok so then i dont understand the question gplunkett
[23:22] <RickJames> anyone know then why the GUI installer for 7.10 goes black screen and does nothing else ?
[23:22] <Flannel> kidicarus: What program are you using?  And, was your computer by any chance made in 1950 somehow?
[23:23] <nickrud> or is it a lisa?
[23:23] <rslarson> how can i install abyss
[23:23] <kidicarus> Flannel: VLC, Totem, MPlayer.. all of them
[23:23] <gplunkett> Mr_Unagi: i was just wondering which would work best for me out of ext3, fat32 etc.
[23:23] <Mr_Unagi> ext3 is more stable and more efficient than fat32
[23:23] <Flannel> kidicarus: Ah, very interesting indeed.  Have you checked launchpad for a bug yet?
[23:24] <brice> can anyone else help? AYBABTU left

[23:24] <brice> finished installation on the external drive, I didn't install grub, and now when I boot up using that external drive I get 'Missing Operating system"
[23:24] <Flannel> !grub | brice
[23:24] <ubotu> brice: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[23:24] <rslarson> I need help with ABYSS
[23:24] <Flannel> brice: follow the first link there to reinstall grub
[23:24] <minimec> kidicarus: I don't have any idea, but try change something in gstreamer-properties for a start.
[23:25] <Mr_Unagi> but dont take my advice
[23:25] <gplunkett> Mr_Unagi: is it read by mac ok? and i think some of my music files have spaces in them, is that ok? and thanks for your help :)
[23:25] <kidicarus> Flannel: I'm thinking I may have done something to it somehow because when I first installed and got DVDs to work everything looked great..
[23:25] <fantum13> so mc44, there isn't anything logged about my error, and even after doing everything that correctly installed the nvidia driver on feisty, I still get punted to "bullet proof" x because it can't "autodetect" my configurarion
[23:25] <KenSentMe> Anyone have any experience using webcam-server as webcam server (duh)? I can make the applet run on localhost, but it doesn't connect when the webserver and webcam server aren't the same machine
[23:25] <kidicarus> minimec: how do i access those properties??
[23:25] <Mr_Unagi> gplunkett: i think you have to install a driver for mac
[23:25] <minimec> kidicarus: <alt>F2 gstreamer-properties
[23:25] <rslarson> I NEED HELP!!!
[23:25] <Mr_Unagi> but if it were me id rather the drive be ext3
[23:25] <kidicarus> minimec: thanks.. i'll try this and brb
[23:26] <Mr_Unagi> gplunkett: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsx/
[23:26] <fantum13> rslarson: the way to get it isn't by using capslock
[23:26] <brice> Flannel: do I need to install grub on the mbr of my internal windows or can I install it to the external drive?
[23:26] <Flannel> KenSentMe: check out plain 'webcam'
[23:26] <gplunkett> Mr_Unagi: ok, thanks :)
[23:26] <KenSentMe> Flannel, can it be used for streaming?
[23:26] <rslarson> my keyboard is kinda messed up sry
[23:26] <Flannel> brice: If you're going to be booting to an external drive, you either need your BIOS to support that, or you'll need a boot disc
[23:26] <sanitarium> hi,...
[23:26] <sanitarium> any 1 tried pclinux 2007
[23:26] <Flannel> KenSentMe: HTTP streaming jpegs you mean?
[23:26] <brice> my bios supports that
[23:26] <nickrud> rslarson: apparently no one here has ever used it

[23:27] <KenSentMe> Flannel, well, webcam-server seems to stream video from the webcam
[23:27] <Flannel> KenSentMe: yeah, it does.  I've never used webcam-server, you might check its configs, see if its bound to localhost (thats a pretty sane default config)

[23:29] <Flannel> sharpie: Its the best one.  And, you've run into one of the largest problems, "best" is in the eye of the beholder.
[23:29] <Pici> Ademan: yes.
[23:29] <bofh80> agh, someone suggested a nifty bittorrent gui client for ubuntu earlier, i don't appear to be logging :( someone? anyone? :)
[23:29] <sharpie> Flannel: it doesn't support resuming

[23:29] <RaverWild> hello. please help - just upgraded to Gutsi. after restart it could not load the graphic mode. ATI video card. what to do?
[23:29] <erichj> deluge-torrent
[23:29] <fantum13> bofh80: deluge is the best one at the moment
[23:29] <Ademan> Pici: so that should work then?
[23:29] <Pici> Ademan: I believe it should.
[23:29] <Ademan> thanks Pici
[23:29] <Flannel> sharpie: yes it does, I resume all the time.
[23:29] <bofh80> fantastic thanks fantum13 and erichj
[23:30] <Ademan> bofh80: a lot of people like Ktorrent as well, but i think i like deluge better myself
[23:30] <Fish> 55% burning .iso
[23:30] <minimec> RaverWild: Can you switch to a console with <alt>F1 ?
[23:30] <sanitarium> gus help plz on pclinux 2007
[23:30] <sharpie> Flannel: i mean, downloading some with azureus, moving to that client and making it check the files and start from there
[23:30] <sanitarium> *y
[23:30] <Slike> hello again :)
[23:30] <Ademan> minimec: ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[23:30] <RaverWild> yes. i can locally login. what to do there?
[23:30] <fantum13> I used to use KTorrent, and I really like a lot of its features, but deluge is just superior
[23:30] <Slike> thanks for the compiz help
[23:30] <Evanlec> sanitarium, wrong channel
[23:30] <Pici> sanitarium: This is Ubuntu support. I dont know where the pclinux channel is, but its not here.
[23:30] <Flannel> sanitarium: this is #ubuntu, PC Linux OS has its own support channels, you'll want to ask there.
[23:30] <minimec> RaverWild: Can you switch to a console with <ctlr><alt>F1 ?
[23:30] <Slike> it works :)
[23:30] <Fish> Does Compiz come with Ubuntu?
[23:30] <minimec> Ademan: thx ;)
[23:30] <fantum13> so, is there a known issue with the nvidia graphics drivers and gutsy?
[23:30] <sanitarium> ok thnxxxxxxxxxx
[23:30] <Ademan> fantum13: i used to like Ktorrent but then i think i got an update from the feisty-backports and it totally changed the interface, and i can't figure it out anymore lol
[23:30] <Slike> Fish: for sure :)
[23:30] <Pici> Fish: It comes with 7.10
[23:31] <zeratul> hi all
[23:31] <Ademan> minimec: no problem lol
[23:31] <RaverWild> minimec yes i told you i can. what to do then?
[23:31] <Fish> I installed Bery awhile back, before it was discontinued and killed X.
[23:31] <brice> Flannel?
[23:31] <thinman1189> does anyone know the best way to go about dealing with a possibly unsupported wireless card for gutsy? (list/help) I'm not sure if the wiki is up to date.

[23:31] <Ademan> ?
[23:31] <Fish> I'm reinstalling Ubunti finally and don't want to risk installing any new window managers. :P
[23:31] <pike_> fantum13: im using 6800gt with no problems after updating. id say general nvidia issues would be addressed quickly
[23:31] <Fish> Ubuntu*
[23:32] <noobie> hey everyone
[23:32] <brice> another 31 users and this channel is 1337
[23:32] <fantum13> pike_: I have a Go 6, and I can't get nvidia-glx-new or the nvidia .pkg binaries to work
[23:32] <Fish> So, what's new since Breezy?
[23:32] <minimec> RaverWild: login and do a 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'. You will be ask some questions... Normally default setting is ok . Take the vesa driver to be sure that X will start.
[23:32] <Fish> I've been out for awhile, :P sorry.
[23:32] <Flannel> brice: then eyah, you'll install GRUB on your USB drive.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB
[23:32] <Ademan> Fish: haha!
[23:32] <Fish> :(
[23:32] <Fish> ?
[23:32] <pike_> fantum13: tried a full update and rebooting? what i mean is are you booted with newest kernel
[23:32] <brice> ty Flannel
[23:32] <Ademan> Fish: just, well, that IS a while :-p
[23:32] <Fish> Ademan, What's new?
[23:32] <brice> will read that
[23:32] <sharpie> oh, and nother question: I enjoy wobbly windows. am I a freak? ;(
[23:33] <Pici> Fish: The restricted driver manager should get you going.
[23:33] <Fish> Only six months or so.
[23:33] <Ademan> Fish: i've been around since dapper so i couldn't really tell you
[23:33] <kidicarus> minimec: is there any way to get my video codecs back to default.. i tried removing/adding them again.. but that didn't work. because after i tooled around with the gstreamer-properties i got color with Xvid in Totem but no other player, and my DVDs are still b&w
[23:33] <noobie> trying to get wine on my 7.10 OS. I have installed the repository fo rit, but wine I do a search for wine in add and remove it doesn't show. help.
[23:33] <RaverWild> minimec thanks. will reboot and try
[23:33] <cello_rasp> sharpie: a sophisticated pervert
[23:33] <sharpie> damn, I knew it =[
[23:33] <fantum13> noobie: have you updated your list with "sudo apt-get update"?
[23:33] <Ademan> Fish: breezy was like a year or two ago i thought   hoary breezy dapper edgy feisty
[23:33] <Ademan> gutsy
[23:33] <Fish> Oh, I still have a Linux partition and a Windows partition, can I reinstall Linux without messing with Windows?
[23:33] <Pici> Fish: fyi, breezy came out 2 years ago.
[23:33] <Flannel> noobie: use synaptic package manager.  Add/remove only has a small subset of all available things
[23:33] <cello_rasp> Fish: yep
[23:33] <Fish> Okay, sorry, I had Feist
[23:34] <noobie> fantum13: probably not 8)
[23:34] <Ademan> Fish: oh! yeah that's not been so long :-p
[23:34] <minimec> kidicarus: So you have to set your other players to Xvid. totem is the only one tat uses the settings of gstreamer-properties.
[23:34] <fantum13> noobie: that's what you have to do after installing a repository so that it gets what's in it into your cache
[23:34] <Fish> cello_rasp, What should I do to not harm my Windows partition?
[23:34] <Ademan> Fish: but yeah you should be able to reinstall without screwing with windows, just make sure you overwrite your old ubuntu partition and not the windows partition
[23:34] <Fish> Okay.
[23:34] <Fish> Logging off to install.
[23:34] <Ademan> Fish: although it should be pretty easy to tell which is which
[23:34] <cello_rasp> Fish: when setting up partitions, set the windows partition to 'do not use this partitition'
[23:34] <Fish> Next time I join this channel I'll have ubuntu running!
[23:35] <Fish> Bye.
[23:35] <Ademan> Fish: the ubuntu partition will probably be ext3 and the windows should be ntfs or fat32
[23:35] <kidicarus> minimec: ooh, i see. the only bad thing about that was i'm not impressed nearly as much with the picture quality in totem as i am with, say, VLC
[23:35] <Alp`> Fish: gl
[23:35] <cello_rasp> the GUI installer shoudl be intuitive enough to go it
[23:35] <Ademan> anyone here use git?
[23:35] <kidicarus> minimec: so i should be able to set vlc to xvid?
[23:35] <rslarson> how do i install itunes through wine
[23:35] <Alp`> Ademan: fat32 is a bad idea
[23:35] <minimec> kidicarus: Maybe you should check your xorg.conf too...
[23:35] <thinman1189> ubotu : my card isn't listed
[23:35] <cello_rasp> fat32 just sucks. Feisty has NTFS read/write
[23:35] <Ademan> Alp`: yeah, but i'm just trying to help him identify the windows partition, if it's an older version of windows it certainly could be fat32
[23:36] <kidicarus> minimec: not sure what that means totally
[23:36] <Alp`> Ademan: ok sorry
[23:36] <minimec> kidicarus: I hardly use vlc. Try to have a look in the properties of vlc
[23:36] <kidicarus> hehe
[23:36] <cello_rasp> Windows 98??
[23:36] <thinman1189> bleh, i like more intelligent bots.
[23:36] <kidicarus> minimec: okay, brb
