[04:28] <sebsebseb> zebastian: if you can't do any of that then  I guess Wubi, hmm and I wonder if one of those links mention the netboot
[04:29] <Out_Cold> i've never had problems with it. and 80% of tutorials say to use sudo su
[04:29] <zebastian> so i can use this wubi thing as a livecd for trial sebsebseb?
[04:29] <lstarnes> shane2peru: by default it uses <IP_ADDRESS>, which listens for any connection going to your system
[04:29] <soreau> aleron6: compiz is installed on ubuntu by default
[04:29] <sebsebseb> zebastian: where you connect to computers together on the LAN, and  send the kernel over to the other and stuff, and install, or something like that, I haven't done it myself
[04:29] <shane2peru> zebastian: wubi is an installer for windows that will install ubunt on the disk
[04:29] <shane2peru> lstarnes: right, I see that, but I want to limit it to my network
[04:30] <logos> i'd used the unetbootin to burn my mp3 player/pen drive with a image of kubuntu, but it inst being recognized, anyone imagine why?
[04:30] <sebsebseb> zebastian: Wubi is not like a Live CD,  it is similar to a proper partitioned install,  except for how the file where it puts Ubuntu is actsauly inside WIndows, and stuff like that
[04:30] <Bluey> where can I find the logitech quickcam driver for ubuntu?
[04:30] <zebastian> hmm, either theres an explicitly loud performance or some jerk in the neighborhood has carl orf's carmina burana playing really loud
[04:30] <lstarnes> shane2peru: that's the firewall's job
[04:30] <zebastian> sebsebseb: so if i click on wubi on a windows pc it will automatically install and install only?
[04:31] <shane2peru> lstarnes: ok, I see, and I did set that in the firewall, so that should be fine
[04:31] <sebsebseb> zebastian: try and always stay on topic in here, or at least do  interesting off topic :D   ,but  the o p s  might have a go at you anyway
[04:31] <zebastian> o p s?
[04:31] <sebsebseb> zebastian: yes so none of them get highlighted
[04:31] <zebastian> sebsebseb: will the UNR install on a laptop?
[04:31] <zebastian> non netbook
[04:32] <sebsebseb> zebastian: The USB install?
[04:32] <shane2peru> ok, thanks lstarnes, much appreciated.
[04:32] <zebastian> yes
[04:32] <sebsebseb> zebastian: should do
[04:32] <zebastian> ok brb
[04:32] <sebsebseb> zebastian: Will Ubuntu just install at all is a question though
[04:32] <sebsebseb> zebastian: How much RAM does the lap top have?
[04:33] <haowan> help me
[04:33] <zebastian> it will
[04:33] <zebastian> its the same model as this one thats running on hardy
[04:33] <sebsebseb> !hi |  haowan
[04:33] <sebsebseb> !ask | haowan
[04:33] <haowan> ubuntu harddisk install ?
[04:33] <aliasp> hello
[04:33] <sebsebseb> zebastian: ok
[04:33] <sebsebseb> zebastian: Thing is with Wubi
[04:33] <sebsebseb> zebastian: oh nevermind your talkking about USB install now anyway
[04:34] <rich> hello... where do I find the program to format an HD ?
[04:34] <sebsebseb> !gparted | rich
[04:34] <zebastian> sebsebseb: what is the thing with wubi though
[04:34] <zebastian> seems like interesting offtopic
[04:34] <sebsebseb> zebastian: it's not off topic
[04:34] <zebastian> ok
[04:34] <sebsebseb> zebastian: since you were considering using Wubi
[04:34] <rich> its not already installed by default?
[04:35] <sebsebseb> rich: On the Live CD it is, but it won't be in a default install
[04:35] <rich> oky thanks
[04:35] <sebsebseb> rich: np
[04:35] <sebsebseb> zebastian: If Windows messes up badly enough so will Ubuntu/Wubi, and  sometimes the boot loaders go wrong for people or whatever, and then they can't boot Windows or Ubuntu, and stuff like that
[04:36] <chuong> hello again
[04:36] <zebastian> sebsebseb: supergrub cd?
[04:36] <chuong> i need some help setting up my internet
[04:36] <rich> guess i can't stay here if I need to go to root right?
[04:36] <sebsebseb> zebastian: that can be used for fixing Grub, but  the Wubi one will be a bit differnet from the standard one I think
[04:36] <sebsebseb> zebastian: or maybe it's not hmm
[04:36] <sebsebseb> !details |  chuong
[04:37] <sebsebseb> rich: I think you already know the answer
[04:37] <chuong> I just install ubuntu v9 last night...I am able to connect to the internet but my connection is very slow
[04:37] <sebsebseb> rich: oh you said root
[04:37] <sebsebseb> rich: not re boot
[04:37] <sebsebseb> !sudo |  rich
[04:37] <chuong> it would take like 2-3 min to load a page
[04:37] <sebsebseb> !gksu |  rich
[04:38] <sebsebseb> !noroot | rich
[04:38] <sebsebseb> !root | rich
[04:38] <chuong> i been monitoring the network history......and the traffic seem to spike alot
[04:38] <Flannel> sebsebseb: The next time you send three factoids at someone like that, I'll be removing you.
[04:38] <aleron6> who was it that imed me when i said fdoes anybody know of compiz
[04:38] <chuong> like it would say receiving 0kb/s for a long time then go up to 1,000kbs for a min or so then drop back down
[04:39] <soreau> aleron6: It was me
[04:39] <sebsebseb> Flannel: Fair enough since the flood,  and  I should  use > more maybe
[04:39] <chuong> this is an wire connection to a linksys router
[04:39] <Flannel> sebsebseb: No, you should try typing.
[04:39] <chuong> any idea?
[04:40] <Flannel> sebsebseb: You effectively just have him a RTFM.  "Here's a bunch of information, hopefully you'll find the answer in there somewhere!"
[04:40] <sebsebseb> Flannel: oh I see
[04:40] <chx> hi. i can't get NFS exports working. showmount <IP_ADDRESS> says Hosts on <IP_ADDRESS>:  and nothing else   /etc/exports is / <IP_ADDRESS>/24(ro)
[04:40] <anonymous165r47> anybody use moovida
[04:40] <sebsebseb> Flannel: Didn't reolize that, but I understand what you mean
[04:41] <anonymous165r47> need help with moovida
[04:42] <anonymous165r47> need help with moovida
[04:43] <roygbiv> chx i think you need to use host names with nfs, not ip's
[04:43] <tnoy> chx, just checking the obvious, did you restart the NFS daemon?
[04:43] <chuong> any idea where i should start researching?
[04:43] <chuong> been reading on forum but found no answer
[04:44] <amitti> I'm having a bad day with mdadm, anyone know where I should go for help?
[04:44] <amitti> I was adding drives and power went out :(
[04:44] <roygbiv> that's a bad day all right
[04:45] <shane2peru> chx: you can use ip's with nfs
[04:45] <shane2peru> roygbiv: ip's can be used with nfs
[04:45] <amitti> Yeah, I've been googling for a couple hours.. Looks like I'm also bit by a bug in the current mdadm in LTS.. I built a fresher version from Intrepid and that got me a bit farther, but I'm no MD expert..
[04:45] <roygbiv> shane2peru aaah ok
[04:45] <shane2peru> roygbiv: what was your question on nfs?
[04:46] <roygbiv> shane2peru it wasn't my question. i responded to chx
[04:46] <shane2peru> chx: oh right. :)  got confused.
[04:46] <brymcon> need help connecting to linksys router?
[04:46] <roygbiv> np
[04:47] <shane2peru> chx: you are lacking quite a bit of options there in that config
[04:47] <shane2peru> chx: did you follow a guide?  Here is a decent one to use:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249889
[04:48] <kprav33n> I want to turn on debconf perl debug.
[04:48] <kprav33n> Anyone knows how to do it?
[04:50] <chuong> anyone good at diagnos internet problem?
[04:50] <worldwarcheese1> Hi there
[04:50] <worldwarcheese1> How do I reinstall my xserver?
[04:51] <willca> chuong | whats up
[04:51] <worldwarcheese1> I think I have a problem and it might be corrupted.
[04:51] <aliasp> yeh contact you isp
[04:51] <willca> worldwarcheese1 | normally....sudo apt-get remove xorg
[04:51] <willca> worldwarcheese1 | then reinstall it, so removing first to try to clean up the cruf...then sudo apt-get install xorg
[04:51] <kprav33n> chuong: What seems to be the problem?
[04:51] <chuong> willca| i just did a fresh install of ubuntu v9 last nite and i am able to get online but the speed is very slow
[04:52] <worldwarcheese1> willca: Thanks, man. I'll just give that a shot
[04:52] <willca> chuong | hwo you connecting? wifi or wired to your ISP?
[04:52] <kprav33n> chuong: How did you measure the speed?
[04:52] <chuong> willca|wire connection to a linksys router
[04:52] <willca> k
[04:52] <chuong> willa|i am using comcast cable
[04:52] <willca> give me a minute and try this out
[04:53] <willca> chuong | look at this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/273228/
[04:53] <willca> chuong | sudo vi /etc/sysctl.conf and then add those at the end
[04:53] <aliasp> congrad u lay shunz
[04:54] <willca> chuong | then save the file, sudo sysctl -p
[04:54] <chuong> willca| another thing i notice is that the connection seem to hang alot...like it would work for one mine then stop then work again
[04:54] <willca> i got comcast too
[04:54] <willca> adding that makes a difference
[04:54] <chuong> let me try really quick
[04:55] <AnnonyMouse> hey guy. quick question. what's the difference between the standard ISO & the "alternative"? is it only LVM? (i usually make use of the mini.iso)
[04:55] <kprav33n> I have Comcast too. I didn't do any tweaking to kernel TCP/IP stack parameters.
[04:55] <kprav33n> I get 12 - 18 Mbps without any issue.
[04:55]  * SirStan has comcast @ 15mbit
[04:55] <chuong> I get that too with window
[04:56] <Flannel> AnnonyMouse: Desktop ISO is a liveCD.  Alternate (and minimal) both use debian-installer (not a liveCD, just an installer).  Gives you LVM options, more choices for install, etc.  Minimal and Alternate CD gives you the same choices, altCD just comes with packages on the CD (minimal you download during install)
[04:56] <SirStan> Sounds like a bad wifi connection
[04:56] <aliasp> i was in a chat with comcast about that very same thing
[04:57] <SirStan> its comcraptic!
[04:57] <aliasp> not 2 worry my friend
[04:57] <AnnonyMouse> k. so alt is install only; std is live. thnx. neet to know what to download to demo karmic alpha 6 @ SFD the w/end
[04:57] <AnnonyMouse> cheers
[04:57] <rich> wow, apparently I can switch users, and come back and still be connected
[04:57] <SirStan> holy crap haiku is fast
[04:57] <k1en> hi, i'm using intrepid and can't find the .trash , wasnt it in /home/user before ?
[04:57] <seidos> can GNU copyright be applied to other creative works aside from software?
[04:58] <lstarnes> seidos: generally a different license should be used
[04:58] <SirStan> seidos: sure
[04:58] <lstarnes> seidos: there is the GNU Free Documentation License for non-code works
[04:58] <chx> shane2peru: / <IP_ADDRESS>/24(ro,async) does not help...
[04:58] <aliasp> comcast is okay
[04:58] <shane2peru> chx: are you running any firewalls?
[04:58] <shane2peru> chx: did you look over that guide I posted?
[04:59] <chx> shane2peru: i read that thread
[04:59] <chx> shane2peru: no fw
[04:59] <shane2peru> chx: you are trying to share root?
[04:59] <seidos> lstarnes: I was thinking more about creative works like art
[04:59] <chx> yes
[05:00] <lstarnes> seidos: wikipedia used that license
[05:00] <chx> backin up laptop
[05:00] <shane2peru> chx: ok
[05:00] <lstarnes> seidos: the creative commons licenses are usually better for art though
[05:00] <seidos> lstarnes: ah creative commons licenses
[05:00] <brymcon> please help......I'm trying to connect to a linksys wrt54g.....ubuntu 9.04.... I can connect to my neighbors netgear and a linksys access points with wpa but not mine
[05:00] <seidos> I wonder if anyone is writing literature under such a license
[05:01] <Kirk> Does anyone know how to do Photo Album in Qt?
[05:01] <shane2peru> chx: here are the options I use: (rw,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,sync)
[05:01] <willca> brymcon .... can you see your linksys at home via iwconfig interface scan
[05:01] <shane2peru> chx: of course rw, would be ro in your case
[05:01] <shane2peru> chx: did you run: exportfs -a
[05:02] <chx> yes
[05:02] <shane2peru> chx: and it is best to restart nfs-kernel-server and portmap
[05:02] <chx> did lots
[05:02] <shane2peru> chx: also you installed nfs-common on the other box?
[05:02] <brymcon> ummm noob i'm not sure about the iwconfig interface scan
[05:03] <willca> k
[05:03] <brymcon> i can see it and it asks me for a wpa or wpa2 key
[05:03] <brodis> is there any way to merge partitions?
[05:03] <brymcon> i enter it correctly and it keeps asking me over and over again
[05:03] <shane2peru> chx: also to make life easier sometimes it is easier to put a specific ip address to work with for the moment and later change it to the network address
[05:03] <willca> brymcon | you using network manager?
[05:03] <Faethin> Greetings
[05:03] <brymcon> yeah
[05:04] <brymcon> i tried wicd the other night same thing
[05:04] <Faethin> I just installed Cheese and I'm having some serious lag problems
[05:04] <shane2peru> chx: what error do you get when trying to mount?  and what are you using to mount
[05:04] <brymcon> i did a fresh install and that didn't help
[05:04] <Faethin> These problems do not occur when I use Ekiga
[05:04] <willca> bymcon | your linksys...you using wpa tkip+aes?
[05:04] <Faethin> Anyone?
[05:04] <willca> brymcon i mean
[05:04] <brymcon> nope i did what the forums said and set it to one or the other
[05:04] <willca> k
[05:05] <willca> brymcon | set it to both...there is normally an option for wpa tkip+aes
[05:05] <brymcon> ok
[05:05] <willca> i had this experience on my POS broadcom pci
[05:06] <Faethin> ...it miraculously fixed itself O_O

[05:07] <linhhoncuacat_89> chi cho tui voi
[05:07] <seidos> what language is that?
[05:07] <linhhoncuacat_89> ah
[05:07] <linhhoncuacat_89> vietnamese
[05:07] <shane2peru> !en | linhhoncuacat_89
[05:08] <linhhoncuacat_89> ok
[05:08] <linhhoncuacat_89> thank you
[05:08] <seidos> I'm not sure what the vietnamese channel is
[05:08] <seidos> !vt
[05:08] <roygbiv> DJCharlie that seems like it could be a simple config file problem. probably somewhere a config file is using a baud speed as a device name
[05:08] <linhhoncuacat_89> what is yours name ?
[05:09] <linhhoncuacat_89> hey
[05:09] <chx> shane2peru: i now try /home <IP_ADDRESS>(ro,async) so that we do not need to deal with root but still showmount shows nothing and we have mount.nfs: mount(2): Input/output error mount.nfs: mount system call failed
[05:09] <linhhoncuacat_89> what's yours name?
[05:09] <DJCharlie> roygbiv, i've gone over the /etc/mgetty/voice.conf a few times, can't find it anywhere.
  ok.. now that the hard drive is formatted, I don't see it.  I'm guessing I need to mount it?
[05:09] <shane2peru> chx: I kept getting that error when I had a firewall running and didn't know it was running
[05:09] <linhhoncuacat_89> boring
[05:10] <chx> absolutely no firewall
[05:10] <shane2peru> chx: go a little more specific and try a user name, I gotta run it is late here
[05:10] <chuong123> willca|i did that sudo command but it doesnt let me add anything
[05:10] <chx> shane2peru: a ... username?
[05:10] <chx> shane2peru: how??
[05:10] <seidos> linhhoncuacat_89: this channel is for solving problems, did you have a question regarding ubuntu?
[05:10] <roygbiv> DJCharlie wherever in your config file you see 57600, you could try replacing it with "modem" or "tty1" or whatever your modem device should be
[05:10] <chuong123> willca|i scroll to the end and keep hearing beep
[05:10] <shane2peru> chx: or a specific folder /home/username/Public or some folder
[05:10] <roygbiv> 57600 is an obvious modem speed setting
[05:11] <shane2peru> chx: I have never shared a root folder
[05:11] <DJCharlie> roygbiv, yes, but there's nothing in the config that matches.
[05:11] <chx> shane2peru: i am now sharing /home
[05:11] <chx> but let me try /home/chx
[05:11] <shane2peru> chx: gotta run, keep plugging away at it you will get it, if all else fails post on the forums on that thread
[05:12] <rich> Hi.. do I need to mount a hard drive before using it?
[05:12] <willca> chuong123 | just edit the /etc/sysctl.conf file in kedi or gedit and then save it
[05:13] <brymcon> no dice
[05:13] <chuong123> willca|u mean the text editor? sorry my first day of using ubuntu
[05:13] <brymcon> on the router the only way i can set it to both is choosing wpa2 personal and that didn't work either
[05:14] <chuong123> willca|i tried using the text editor and that would let me add the text but wont let me save
[05:15] <willca> chuong123 you need to go into a terminal or konsole | from there sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf
[05:16] <willca> brymcon | i would check if there is a new firmware for your box
[05:16] <brymcon> ok
[05:19] <deviant-route> I got a question. If i am using pidgin 2.5.5 do i still get security updates?
[05:19] <lstarnes> deviant-route: security updates are made for ubuntu's packages
[05:20] <deviant-route> lstarnes: thank you
[05:22] <bastid_raZor> willca: for graphical applications use gksudo
[05:23] <willca> sorry cli user most of the time
[05:25] <demonspork> quick, what is the keybind for a screenshot in gnome?
[05:25] <xmnt> print screen
[05:25] <bastid_raZor> demonspork: printscreen
[05:25] <cryptide> why are most apps in the repos old versions?
[05:26] <lstarnes> cryptide: those are the versions that were available when your release of ubuntu was made
[05:26] <lstarnes> cryptide: they are still patches regularly to fix bugs
[05:26] <sagaci> cryptide: you may have to add repo's to access newer versions, what are you after
[05:27] <chuong123> willca|that seem to help a bit but it seem like the browser is stuck at looking www.sometihng.com for a while before it go to the page
[05:27] <dsnyders> Hi all!  Any sed experts?  I need to convert a web page file with urls into a series of wgets.
[05:27] <cryptide> so when a new version ubuntu comes out i'll get access to the latest versions in the add/remove programs?
[05:28] <lstarnes> cryptide: they will likely still be behind a couple versions
[05:28] <duryodhan> hi .. how do I update to latest version of gnome in ubuntu ?
[05:28] <cryptide> lame
[05:28] <duryodhan> without upgrading my distribution ?
[05:28] <lstarnes> cryptide: ubuntu does that for stability reasons
[05:29] <kj4> duryodhan: install arch instead of ubuntu
[05:29] <lstarnes> duryodhan: there may be a PPA for it
[05:29] <willca> chuong123 | try rebooting it and see how it goes after that
[05:29] <cryptide> lstarnes: i understand, but i'm trying upgrade an unstable program... lol
[05:29] <cryptide> this helped: http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/
[05:29] <chuong123> willca|i did reboot after i made the change
[05:30] <chuong123> willca| seem like it stuck at the connecting to www.something.com
[05:30] <hadding> What are bluish/purplish files?
[05:30] <chuong123> willca|after it got past that the page load realy fast
[05:31] <bastid_raZor> chuong123: can you test to see if it is the router and not ubuntu by plugging directly into the modem?
[05:31] <willca> chuong123 | maybe its just that page
[05:31] <bastid_raZor> chuong123: it actually sounds more like a dns issue than ubuntu mucking up the routes.
[05:32] <chuong123> willca|been trying multiple page
[05:32] <chuong123> bastid|anyway to fix that?
[05:32] <dsnyders> hadding, it depends on your settings.  On my system it would be mp3s
[05:32] <bastid_raZor> chuong123: test it by going directly to the modem instead of through the router. that step will help determine some things.
[05:32] <willca> chuong123 | theres a lot of factors if you use a browser, i suggest doing ftp to test instead
[05:33] <obiwan__> please, what's the java virtual machine packet for 64 bit jaunty?
[05:34] <chuong123> bastid|cant do that lolz....i would get my butt kick if i disconnect the landlord connection from the router lolz
[05:34] <chuong123> willca|any specific ftp? or one that I can try
[05:34] <lstarnes> obiwan__: I think I have sun-java6-jre
[05:35] <sylverfox> hi all
[05:35] <obiwan__> ok i'll give it a try lstarnes ;)
[05:35] <sylverfox> i have a globalmenu related problem
[05:35] <willca> chuong123 | just try to download the ubuntu iso
[05:35] <lstarnes> obiwan__: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java may be useful too
[05:36] <obiwan__> thank you boy !
[05:36] <bastid_raZor> lstarnes: good job 'boy' :P
[05:36] <sylverfox> i used it once, but after uninstalling it, gnome still wants to load it
[05:37] <sylverfox> how can I stop that?
[05:37] <Pytlask> Is anyone aware of a recent update (last week or so) that would totally bork wireless? My primary computer is now getting ~50% packet loss and has been unable to update
[05:37] <brymcon> i like the new firmware but nope still can't connect
[05:39] <fallenpoet> brymcon | did you try removing the auto connect profile for that connection?
[05:39] <brymcon> yes
[05:40] <brymcon> every time it asks me for the key again i have to retype it... it returns with the key in hex.. every time i retry the connection i remove the auto profile
[05:40] <sylverfox> now i can use only metacity --replace
[05:40] <sylverfox> nor compiz --replace

[05:45] <fallenpoet> brymcon | what is your neighbors using wpa or wep?
[05:45] <brymcon> just upgraded my firmware on the wrt54g
[05:45] <Pytlask> Is there any way to revert all updates done through the update manager in the last week? It appears one has broken the wireless on my computer :(
[05:45] <calmbola> i allocated 27G to ubuntu and it's using 9, and that only leaves me with 6 after swap
[05:45] <willca> brymcon | disable wep or wpa on your router and start from there
[05:46] <brymcon> neighbor is using wep, dad using wpa and i can cannot to unsecured networks too
[05:46] <sylverfox> soreau, any ideea?
[05:46] <calmbola> Can anyone help me understand why my Ubuntu OS is taking up so much memory?
[05:47] <soreau> sylverfox: I hadn't been following along...
[05:47] <Sedated> brymcon... how old is your wireless card?
[05:47] <soreau> sylverfox: What are you trying to do?
[05:47] <brymcon> probably ancient it's a broadcom 57xx extreme
[05:47] <sylverfox> soreau,  i try to use Desktop effects and emerald themes
[05:47] <calmbola> soreau, any way you can helkp me with my question
[05:47] <sylverfox> soreau,  emerald doesn't started when i rebooted

[05:48] <sylverfox> soreau,  and if i give the command: emerald --replace
[05:48] <dsnyders> calmbola, how big is your hard drive?
[05:48] <soreau> sylverfox: So you just want emerald as your default decorator?
[05:48] <sylverfox> yes
[05:48] <mobster> should i install 64bit version ubuntu with only 3gb?
[05:48] <calmbola> total 80 gigs dsnyders
[05:48] <calmbola> i allocated 27 to ubuntu
[05:48] <calmbola> 30 including swap
[05:48] <leaf-sheep> mobster: 3GB Ram? You'll be fine.
[05:48] <RukusX> I have two new filesystem mounts that only have root access. my user must have access to these mounts. How do i set that?
[05:48] <calmbola> why is it eating up 19 gigs, i just installed it
[05:48] <soreau> sylverfox: Go to ccsm>Window Decoration>Command field and put emerald --replace there
[05:48] <Pytlask> A recent update has essentially ruined the wireless on my computer. Is there any way to undo updates from the past ~week without reinstalling everything?
[05:49] <leaf-sheep> mobster: Also, it does not matter how much RAM you have.  As long as your processor supports 64bit processing.
[05:49] <soreau> calmbola: What are you trying to do?
[05:49] <calmbola> soreau, i just did a dual boot install - xp/ubuntu 9.04
[05:49] <dsnyders> calmbola, how are you determining that it is using 19gigs?
[05:49] <calmbola> i just did df -h and checked memory on ubuntu
[05:49] <brymcon> brb going to try disabling security and connecting
[05:49] <calmbola> out of 27 gigs allocated to /, only 6 are left
[05:49] <dsnyders> calmbola, df is disk free.
[05:49] <mobster> leaf-sheep, yeah only 3gb ram and the processor supports it. so i should?
[05:49] <calmbola> nothing has really been installed and no files of mine are on here
[05:49] <RukusX> sebsebseb: u aorund?
[05:49] <mobster> or just stick with 32bit
[05:49] <Sedated> brymcon, i just ran into this problem with a laptop a few days ago.  it was an old wireless chip that only supported 802.11A and B.  with teh router configured for WPA2, i could connect and authenticate but it would never be able to get an IP address.  if i siwtched it to WPA, it would connect fine.  i also tried a usb wireless G stick and it connected fine.  so your options are probably to drop down to WPA, which probably i
[05:50] <calmbola> df -h, dsnyders shows size, used, avail
[05:50] <leaf-sheep> mobster: I'm using 64bit.  Yes, You should.  Take the advantage out of the situation. :3
[05:50] <dsnyders> calmbola, du is disk used
[05:50] <mobster> k
[05:50] <frk2> 4
[05:50] <Termea> how can I change Shiretoko web browser icon to colorful foxfire icon
[05:50] <calmbola> du is disked used for each process, isn't it?
[05:50] <soreau> calmbola: Use du -hs /
[05:50] <leaf-sheep> calmbola: There are Data Usage
[05:50] <nexes> Termea: just right click it, then click the icon and change it
[05:50] <calmbola> i solved it
[05:50] <calmbola> the trash
[05:51] <soreau> calmbola: Use 'du -hs /etc' for example and keep going till you track down the usage. du -hs /var/log etc
[05:51] <Termea> thanks
[05:51] <calmbola> why doesn't rm * move things to delete them immediately?
[05:51] <soreau> calmbola: Great
[05:51] <leaf-sheep> calmbola: Err... There are Disk Usage Analyzer in Accessories.  Check it out. It'll tell you which folder takes a large portion of data.
[05:51] <calmbola> why is it moving stuff to the trash?
[05:51] <calmbola> *shakes her fist!!*
[05:51] <Pytlask> Is there any way to revert all updates from the past week? One broke all wireless on my computer :(
[05:51] <soreau> calmbola: Did you look at what it's putting in the trash?
[05:51] <calmbola> yes soreau
[05:51] <calmbola> it was a data dump i did
[05:52] <soreau> calmbola: What is it?
[05:52] <calmbola> but i for sure did rm *
[05:52] <soreau> calmbola: Well.. there ya go
[05:52] <calmbola> now i have 23 Gigs
[05:52] <calmbola> soreau any idea why rm * is putting stuff to trash?
[05:52] <dsnyders> calmbola, rm may be aliased to permit oops moments.
[05:52] <calmbola> it should permanently delete
[05:52] <calmbola> ok well il guess it's not the end of the world
[05:52] <calmbola> thank you all very much
[05:54] <soreau> calmbola: Use 'sudo rm -rf /blah' to make it permanent
[05:54] <soreau> calmbola: And be careful with that. It's actually a good thing it's putting it in the trash
[05:54] <dsnyders> Hi all!  Any sed experts?  I need to extract some urls from a file
[05:55] <calmbola> yes it is
[05:55] <calmbola> i've deleted special code that way before
[05:55] <calmbola> although i must protest that ubuntu is becoming a little TOO user-friendly...
[05:56] <RukusX> I have two new filesystem mounts that only have root access. my user must have access to these mounts. How do i set that?
[05:56] <RukusX> Access must be full
[05:57] <brymcon> alright i can't cannot to an unsecured connection? so your saying to set my wireless mode to mixed?
[05:57] <dsnyders> RukusX, you may need to look at the chown and chmod commands.
[05:57] <Pytlask> Does anyone know of an update in the past week that broke wireless support?
[05:58] <RukusX> dsnyders k
[05:58] <chuong321> willca|been looking at the download and it seem like the download hang after a while
[05:58] <SnakDoc> Pytlask i have gotten lots recently for bluetooth thats all i have noticed
[05:58] <fallenpoet> dsnyders | i might be able to help you. how are the url writen in the file?
[05:59] <willca> chuong321 | sounds more like either its comcast alright, or your equipment like cable or router or modem maybe?
[05:59] <Pytlask> SnakDoc: Do you know if there is any way to revert updates in the past week? Running from the Live CD, wireless works just fine, but I get ~75% packet loss on an updated machine
[05:59] <willca> chuong321 | i complained to comcast once about something like this and they just reset my modem remotely and things got better
[05:59] <chuong321> willca|the thing is it hang for a while then got back up again
[05:59] <willca> brymco | sounds like you have a bad router...maybe resetting to factory and then reconfig will help
[05:59] <willca> just a suggestion
[06:00] <SnakDoc> Pytlask wow thats not good i not sure i will do some searching if no one else here can answer
[06:00] <brymcon> i can connect with my windows machine fine
[06:00] <chuong321> willca|i tried downloading from the site with my sister comptuter and it work find
[06:00] <dsnyders> fallenpoet, the urls are of the form www.example.com/mp3/somename.mp3
[06:00] <Pytlask> Alright, so anybody else know of a way to roll back updates? Wireless works just fine from a Live CD, but gets ~75% packet loss on an updated machine
[06:00] <chuong321> willca|was able to download around 800KB
[06:01] <chuong321> willca|she running window with wireless
[06:01] <Frijolie> how do you replace "_" with " " in multiple filenames? is there an easy way?
[06:01] <obliqueee> anyone handy with amarok?
[06:01] <fallenpoet> dsnyders | are there any special character around the url or are they one by line?
[06:02] <SnakDoc> Pytlask what driver is your wiresless car using ?
[06:02] <Pytlask> How would I enable an ethernet cable? (Why do I even have to?)
[06:02] <willca> chuong321 | sounds like driver issues
[06:02] <Pytlask> SnakDoc: I'm not sure. Any idea how I figure that out?
[06:02] <willca> chuong321 | what hardware NIC is that
[06:02] <dsnyders> fallenpoet, the urls are like<PHONE_NUMBER>-audio-player.swf?audioUrl=http://example.com/mp3/Maxine.mp3"
[06:02] <Frijolie> I guess it would have to be part of a script so you could loop through each file in the directory
[06:02] <SnakDoc> i know you can right click the wireless networks and hit connection info and its listed there
[06:03] <SnakDoc> Pytlask i know you can right click the wireless networks and hit connection info and its listed there
[06:03] <Frijolie> I aint gots no skillz for writing scripts, regex, or sed/awk
[06:03] <chuong321> willca|it an Intel gigabit ethernet
[06:03] <RukusX> thanks dsnyders. chown did it all
[06:03] <chuong321> willca|it an onbard ethernet
[06:04] <dsnyders> fallenpoet, All I need is the part between audioURL= and ending in .mp3.  Ideally I'd like to throw a wget in front of it.
[06:04] <chuong321> willca|i have a intel motherboard that have the ethernet on it
[06:04] <Frijolie> nobody's l33t?
[06:04] <dsnyders> RukusX, excellent news.
[06:04] <RukusX> dsnyders: i lied
[06:04] <Pytlask> SnakDoc: ath5k_pci
[06:04] <RukusX> dsnyders: i got more work to do
[06:06] <dsnyders> RukusX, chown changes the ownership of the files.  Chmod changes the permissions.
[06:06] <willca> chuong321 | thats a decent hardware...... does sudo netstat -i show any interface errors?
[06:06] <willca> chuong321 | switch patch cables ? try that
[06:06] <RukusX> dsnyders i am not understanding what i need to do. i just need  read/write permissions for two mounted partitions.
[06:06] <obliqueee> someone know how to get visuals going in amarok

[06:10] <dsnyders> Rukusx, to add write permissions for all users to a file, chmod a+w filename
[06:10] <RukusX> dsny7ders file / folder?
[06:11] <RukusX> dsnyders file / folder?
[06:11] <dsnyders> RukusX, I'm not really an expert with chmod, though.  If nobody steps up, you may need to google it.
[06:11] <trey__> i need help
[06:11] <RukusX> dsnyders k thanks man
[06:11] <Ben64> wait do what?
[06:12] <trey__> i can't see running programs in the gnome menu bar
[06:12] <Ben64> hmm... RukusX: are the partitions ext3? fat? ntfs? ????
[06:12] <dsnyders> RukusX, I think it can be either.  A -R applies chmod recursively.
[06:12] <brymcon_> sedated | you just solved it!!!! thank you!!! thank you!!! only works with b signal.... broadcasted mixed and now i'm talking to you via wifi!!! idk if you got this but i have to thank you again!
[06:12] <Pytlask> Does anybody know of a way to revert a specific driver? (I have the Live CD). Wireless is broken (~75% packet loss) with a recent update, but works fine from the live cd.
[06:12] <RukusX> dsnyders i found a couple good help files in google now that i know what to look for
[06:13] <dsnyders> RukusX, sometimes we're better off with a hint than the actual answer.
[06:13] <trey__> any one
[06:14]  * Pytlask begs for help. Next option is reinstalling windows >< Does anybody know of a way to revert a specific driver? (I have the Live CD). Wireless is broken (~75% packet loss) with a recent update, but works fine from the live cd.
[06:14] <Sedated> brymcon_ yup, i see it.  thanks
[06:15] <trey__> i need help
[06:15] <willca> Pytlask | what driver is that you just put in ?
[06:15] <Pytlask> willca: I didn't put in any new driver. I would assume one of the automatic updates through Apt broke it.
[06:16] <dsnyders> Pytlask, sorry, I don't know how to revert to a previous version.  Perhaps an apt-get remove and apt-get install?
[06:16] <SnakDoc> Pytlask here is a few things i found https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/73108
[06:16] <syk> trying to install splashy in synaptic but i get this error "E: /var/cache/apt/archives/splashy_0.3.13-3ubuntu1_i386.deb: trying to overwrite `/etc/lsb-base-logging.sh', which is also in package lsb-base"
[06:16] <Pytlask> willca: But since ath5k_pci is my wireless driver, my only idea is to try reverting that driver to the version from the Live CD
[06:16] <scm422> Question? Does anyone know if its possible to to select a monitor other then VGA to be set as the primary Monitor?
[06:17] <Pytlask> dsnyders: The driver itself doesn't appear to be a package through apt (as far as I can tell. Though it may be contained within a package)
[06:17] <trey__> is any one going to help me
[06:17] <dsnyders> scm422, You may need to play with /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually.
[06:17] <chuong> willca|did u see anything wrong with the output?
[06:18] <dsnyders> Pytlask, I guess it's too much to ask if you have a recent backup :-)?
[06:18] <Pytlask> dsnyders: Nope ><
[06:18] <SnakDoc> trey__ you saying no apps are listed in gnome menu bar
[06:18] <scm422> dsnyders: Any suggestions on how to go about doing that?
[06:19] <trey__> i can't see running programs in the gnome menu bar
[06:19] <dtx_aeriner> hi, i just ran a 'sudo aptitude install build-essential' and it's prompting to remove linux-headers <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> generic. what did i do wrong here?
[06:19] <willca> chuong321 | can you send the pastebin again on irc
[06:19] <willca> i lost it

[06:20] <willca> Pytlask | i would try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty#Atheros_Cards
[06:20] <SnakDoc> trey__ try right click add to panel and then drag windows list to bar should get it fixed for you
[06:20] <willca> chuong | no errors there
[06:20] <lstarnes> dtx_aeriner: assuming that you aren't currently using <IP_ADDRESS>, then it should be safe to do so
[06:21] <SnakDoc> Pytlask was same idea of slow connection speed figure at 75% lost it be slow
[06:21] <willca> chuong | sorry i guess only thing I can think of is changing your patch cable
[06:21] <Pytlask> willca: Any idea how I'd check to see what card I'm using? (Not even sure if it's an Atheros)
[06:21] <trey__> that did it thank you
[06:21] <SnakDoc> trey__ no problem
[06:21] <leaf-sheep> dtx_aeriner: Nothing. They are likely to be outdated. I assume
[06:21] <willca> Pytlask | sudo lspci -vnn | grep Ethernet
[06:21] <chuong> willca|change the cable i'm using to connect?
[06:21] <Pytlask> SnakDoc: Yup, definitely seems to be a similar problem, if not the same one
[06:21] <dtx_aeriner> lstarnes / leaf-sheep: thanks.
[06:22] <Pytlask> Ah, it is atheros
[06:22] <willca> Pytlask | sudo lspci -vnn | grep Wireless
[06:22] <chuong> willca|i'll try that
[06:23] <chuong> willca|thank for your help :) i guess i'll google it some more tmr
[06:23] <willca> chuong | try the other ports on that router too...sorry nothing more i can think of than that

[06:45] <spyder2314> well when i use the uploader to upload files to thos esites it freezes out on me until the upload it finished.
[06:45] <spyder2314> for some reason it won't disply the progress, no treally a big deal but annoying.
[06:45] <Bluey> spyder -- that's a java issue
[06:46] <karimas> hi all
[06:46] <spyder2314> oh, so i should uninstall th e officail java plugin and get icedtea?
[06:46] <Bluey> spyder I don't know if I am used icedtea or not let me check
[06:46] <Frijolie> the_gamer, plus when I ran 'rename _ \ *' I get this error: Bareword "_" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at (eval 1) line 1.
[06:47] <Bluey> spyder -- nope I am using icedtea
[06:47] <Bluey> the issue with uploading photos though is java

[06:49] <Frijolie> losher, trying it now...
[06:49] <Bluey> what I can't figure out is why ff3.5 under wine, is faster then native windows?
[06:50] <losher> Bluey: someone yesterday was saying his ubuntu machines were much slower than his XP machines when surfing...
[06:50] <Bluey> losher  - wow
[06:50] <Bluey> dunno
[06:50] <Bluey> might be a dns issue

[07:06] <fallenpoet> bhaka | you can reconfigure the xserver using the fallowing command sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:06] <losher> t0s: ok, you should be able to shrink /dev/sda1 by 10G leaving space to create an additional partition....
[07:07] <robox> oh

[07:08] <nemesis1911> anyone any luck with getin' a nexxttech cam to work?
[07:08] <losher> t0s: you can't resize it while running from it. You need to boot the livecd and do it from there...

[07:12] <conjurer> Voodoo: what do you mean it was 'blank'
[07:12] <conjurer> as in nothing showed up on the partioning scheme?
[07:12] <Voodoo> there was nothing there... in the box to partition
[07:13] <Voodoo> conjurer: corrext
[07:13] <conjurer> what hardware are you using
[07:13] <Bluey> conjurer - a logitech quickcam
[07:13] <Voodoo> conjurer: is it because my HD is 1tb? a Seagate 1TB
[07:13] <Reactor> Istarnes: thx - working
[07:14] <conjurer> Voodoo: might be possibly hardware related
[07:14] <Voodoo> conjurer: i'm on it right now it works fine under winblows...
[07:15] <conjurer> Bluey: i've got a 9000, and had a one before that worked pretty good with a bit fiddling
[07:15] <Voodoo> conjurer: i even tryed partitioning it under windows and still nothing.
[07:15] <conjurer> the 9000 works out of the box though
[07:15] <Bluey> conjurer -- I can't find a driver for it - my problem
[07:15] <conjurer> Bluey: any idea on the model?
[07:16] <Bluey> conjurer - let me look -- short of plugging it into windows..
[07:16] <Reactor> lstarnes: thx - working
[07:16] <conjurer> Voodoo: if you have no strange raid arrays or anything, it might be a install bug or no driver is there
[07:17] <conjurer> Voodoo: any idea what the drive is?

[07:17] <w00k> hey guys does anyone use amarok in ubuntu here?
[07:18] <Reactor> !ask | w00k
[07:19] <w00k> I uninstalled my KDE to return back to gnome, and did a reinstall of amarok
[07:20] <w00k> but now it cant play a song
[07:20] <Bluey> conjurer -- it looks similar to this:  http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/webcam_communications/webcams/devices/4266&cl=us,en  but has no microphone
[07:20] <qq99> need help: trying to remove the ubuntu firefox version completely from the system, is this possible?
[07:20] <w00k> it keeps skipping every track and gives me a playback error
[07:20] <bhaka> fallenpoet: did not help, i left most of the options to default, but it still gives me a black screen ;(
[07:20] <conjurer> Bluey: sec i'll pm you
[07:21] <SnakDoc>  i getting this no idea why rndc: connection to remote host closed key hosted on same server and port dhcpd and bind read same txt file any ideas ?
[07:21] <fallenpoet> bhaka | did you try to using a diffrent screen?
[07:22] <demonspork> my volume control buttons (like on my keyboard) don't control the volume of my headphones, I am using Creative Fatal1ty USB headphones and have disabled the onboard soundcard in the CMOS. How do I get the buttons to control the correct volume?
[07:22] <shivek> I've downloaded python-2.6.2 in .tgz format. How to install it ?
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> w00k: try: cd ~/.kde; find . -name "amaro*"
[07:22] <bhaka> fallenpoet: its a laptop, but its working fine showing bios and grub doing its stuff
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> w00k: close amarok then rename the files it finds
[07:22] <CodeWar> is there a way to customize my text mode login screen
[07:23] <w00k> k i am gonna try that
[07:23] <bhaka> fallenpoet: its not even letting me to open a normal terminal, so this is kinda new to me
[07:24] <aaronlborg> anyone wanna give me some advice on the cat command?
[07:24] <Reactor> aaronlborg: --help ;)
[07:24] <aaronlborg> i seem to only be able to cat the last 51% of a long file
[07:24] <Reactor> aaronlborg: strange
[07:24] <Voodoo> conjurer: ST31000333AS
[07:25] <prince_jammys> aaronlborg: what's the command you're running? just cat somefile ?
[07:25] <Voodoo> conjurer: thats the model number.. sorry i was afk dealing with my 2yr old lol
[07:25] <aaronlborg> cat mylongfile (which is a really long httpd.conf file)
[07:25] <Reactor> aaronlborg: maybe the file contains "00" bytes in its beginning?
[07:25] <fallenpoet> bhaka | the resolution might be higher then you screen can support
[07:25] <aaronlborg> well, i can vim it and see everything
[07:25] <myeggo> good morning
[07:25] <conjurer> Voodoo: ok give me a sec
[07:25] <Reactor> aaronlborg: to what file u cat it?
[07:26] <aaronlborg> how can i copy the every line using vim (to paste into another file)?
[07:26] <aaronlborg> some wicked yank command or something?
[07:26] <conjurer> Voodoo: so just a 1tb sata drive, it /should/ work fine
[07:26] <myeggo> i am trying to install ubuntu 9.04 in a computer with motherboard intel desktop board DG41RQ, it does not detect ethernet, and seeking at intel.com they say it is possible, but there is no link for ubuntu, only for redhat
[07:26] <fallenpoet> bhaka | when you were reconfiguring did you pick the vga driver?
[07:26] <prince_jammys> aaronlborg: you can go to the other file, and:  :r file   (to read the other file's contents into the buffer)
[07:26] <myeggo> is there a way for install at least the network driver?
[07:27] <myeggo> or a webpage where i can download
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: run: sudo lshw -C network
[07:27] <Voodoo> conjurer: heh i see nothing in the partition window.. let me see if i can even access it from the liveCD
[07:27] <hanasaki> I turn on visual effects EXTRA and it works.. .when I logout and login again.. they are no longer on.  how can I get them on at login?
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: it will tell you what it is seen as, you can then websearch that
[07:27] <aaronlborg> prince_jammys, thanks!  how would that look exactly?  cat mylongfile :r   ?
[07:27] <Reactor> aaronlborg: u wanna merge 2 files?
[07:27] <w00k> ActionParsnip : no its not working
[07:27] <prince_jammys> aaronlborg: no, i thought you were talking vim.
[07:27] <bhaka> fallenpoet: bhaka | the resolution might be higher then you screen can support <- it would still allow me to open a normal terminal with alt+ctrl+F1
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> w00k: well you now have stock amarok settings
[07:28] <myeggo> ActionParsnip: it says: *-network: DISABLED
[07:28] <bhaka> fallenpoet: bhaka | when you were reconfiguring did you pick the vga driver? <- no, there was no such option. Ill recheck
[07:28] <prince_jammys> aaronlborg: inside vim, the command :r somefile  will read somefile into the present buffer (like pasting the whole file into your present document)
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: whats the product line?
[07:28] <myeggo> intel motherboard Desktop Board DG41RQ, http://www.intel.com/support/sp/motherboards/desktop/dg41rq/sb/cs-030262.htm
[07:29] <aaronlborg> prince_jammys, so how do i then "grab" it to paste into another file?
[07:29] <qq99> does gnome come with any other browsers by default?
[07:29] <aaronlborg> or does that put it on my clipboard?
[07:29] <w00k> ActionParsnip: wats stock amarok settings
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> qq99: no but you can install them from repos or install cd
[07:29] <bhaka> fallenpoet: it only asks if i wanna use the kernel framebuffer (A=yes), after that all the questions regard only the keyboard
[07:29] <snoopy_> Hey i need help
[07:29] <prince_jammys> aaronlborg: you don't. go to the other file first, and then read the one you want to paste into that one.
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> w00k: when you first ran amarok (or any app) you get stock settings
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> w00k: default rubish which you can then tweak
[07:30] <prince_jammys> aaronlborg: of course there's fancier ways, but that way is pretty straight forward.
[07:30] <fallenpoet> bhaka | try this command which should change the resolution to 1024 by 760  xrandr -s 1024x760
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> w00k: i'd ask in #kubuntu
[07:30] <aaronlborg> wow.  that's cool.  just tried it, prince_jammys
[07:30] <snoopy_> how can i get to a directory on terminal?
[07:30] <w00k> ActionParsnip: k i will try that ty
[07:31] <aaronlborg> now.....what if the file i'd like to "r:" in is remote?
[07:32] <ActionParsnip> qq99: i think it comes with lynx or lynx2 too
[07:32] <ActionParsnip> !browser | qq99
[07:32] <snoopy_> ?
[07:34] <bhaka> fallenpoet: it did not help. It might not be able to select my laptops keyboard or screen, cause even the capslock key doesnt do anything
[07:34] <myeggo> ActionParsnip: only for verify: it is incompatible,right?
[07:34] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: i dont know what chip its using, you havent told me
[07:34] <snoopy_> help?
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: use: cd <foldername>  to enter <foldername>
[07:35] <aaronlborg> cool trick.  thanks prince_jammys!
[07:35] <prince_jammys> aaronlborg: heh, welcome.
[07:35] <fallenpoet> bhaka | that graphic card you have and which driver did you try to install?
[07:35] <myeggo> ah sorry, i said the model name, where can i see the chipset? i have the motherboard
[07:35] <snoopy_> like
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: use: cd ..    (notice the space) to go up a folder
[07:35] <snoopy_> cd tSS?
[07:35] <myeggo> Nh82801GB serie 4
[07:35] <myeggo> is it?
[07:35] <snoopy_> OHH
[07:35] <todd__> 9.10 home partition will not work same as 9.04 anyone have info?
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: try: lspci
[07:36] <ActionParsnip> !karmic | todd__
[07:36] <snoopy_> Well that didn't help
[07:36] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: its case sensitive
[07:36] <snoopy_> I'm trying to get to this directory /home/snoopy/Urban Terror/UrbanTerror
[07:37] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: if tss isnt in the location your terminal is in
[07:37] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: cd /home/snoopy/Urban\ Terror/UrbanTerror
[07:37] <bhaka> fallenpoet:  ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650 and I downloaded its driver via the restricted driver manager - however, i had automatically installed some nvidia drivers, because i cloned my old laptop. After installing the ATI driver, I went to a restart and this happened. I have now removed nvidia drivers, but it had no effect :S
[07:37] <snoopy_> thanks :D
[07:37] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: you need to escape spaces with \
[07:38] <snoopy_> but why does it have like
[07:38] <myeggo> ActionParsnip: there is a list of usb, ide, vga, sata, audio and vga controlles, but i dont see any for ethernet
[07:38] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: if you use tab to autocomplete, this is managed for you
[07:38] <Gnea> snoopy_: the tab key helps too
[07:38] <snoopy_> thanks my friend :D
[07:38] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: use pastebin to provide the output
[07:38] <leaf-sheep> This is why I retort to dashes instead of spaces. :)
[07:38] <leaf-sheep> resort*
[07:38] <Gnea> cd Urb<tabkey>
[07:39] <Nachturnal> i prefer underscores to dashes for space-replacements
[07:39] <Gnea> leaf-sheep: these days it's not so bad
[07:39] <Gnea> for i in `find . -name "*.$DESC" -print | sed -e 's/ /_/g'`; do j=`echo $i | sed -e 's/_/ /g'`; mv "$j" $i; done
[07:39] <Gnea> Nachturnal: :)
[07:40] <ActionParsnip> gets a bt hellish with apostophes and other weird characters but tab fixes all
[07:40] <Gnea> oh yeah, don't forget:  DESC=$1
[07:40] <krejustin1979> hey im trying to compile a new 2.6.16 kernel from kernel.org in ubuntu 9.04 im having some problems can anyone help?
[07:41] <ActionParsnip> !kernel | krejustin1979
[07:41] <Gnea> krejustin1979: why such an old kernel?
[07:41] <fallenpoet> bhaha | most likely you will need to play with the xorg config file. this web site might help http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu
[07:41] <ActionParsnip> good ol friday :D
[07:42] <krejustin1979> i thought that was a new kernel? gnea?
[07:43] <ActionParsnip> !info linux-image
[07:43] <krejustin1979> What's the newest kernel for ubuntu?
[07:43] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: ^
[07:43] <bhaka> fallenpoet: thx, ill look into it
[07:44] <krejustin1979> so the jaunty kernel is the newest?
[07:44] <fallenpoet> bhaka | or if you don't need 3d acceleration you might want to try the open source ati driver
[07:44] <myeggo> ActionParsnip: sorry, i needed find an usb for get the output http://paste.ubuntu.com/273275/
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: try: lsusb
[07:45] <OriWB> How do I find out what Graphics card I have?
[07:45] <krejustin1979> anyone know why this happins? sudo cp linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2 /usr/src
[07:45] <krejustin1979> cp: cannot stat `linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2': No such file or directory
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: you'll get an 8 character exadecimal code
[07:47] <krejustin1979> whats cp: cannot stat mean?
[07:48] <mootoo> hi
[07:48] <nemesis1911> yooo dude with the logitech cam.. here is http://mxhaard.free.fr/download.html
[07:49] <mootoo> i just installed my first linux ever, ubuntu!
[07:49] <slated2> I get this error when using gSTM to connect to my local computer "H-2.0-OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5ubuntu1 Protocol mismatch. " (shows up in Firefox) (I'm trying to use SSH as a secure proxy)
[07:49] <KB1JWQ> slated2: You're proxying it wrong.
[07:50] <myeggo> ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/273279/
[07:50] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: try using ./ at the start of the file and use tab completion
[07:50] <snoopy_> Is there any way i can make my internet connection better?
[07:50] <slated2> KG1JWQ port wise? or how so? I do have the server set up only to accept certificates. I can ssh into it via the terminal fine. But I want to avoid having a window open to keep a SSH connection active (just for the SSH proxy)
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> myeggo: 0d3d:0026 kinda shows its a wifi device. i'd use ndiswrapper biut keep an eye out for native drivers
[07:52] <snoopy_> Take that as a no?
[07:52] <losher> snoopy_: what's wrong with it?
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: you waited all of 2 mins, give people a chance
[07:52] <myeggo> it is not a laptop, doesnt have any wifi device
[07:53] <myeggo> i will seek in native drives
[07:53] <snoopy_> Okay, I'll wait.
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: you can install dnsmasq to perform local dns translation
[07:53] <jdb> snoopy_: define "better"
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: you can use about:config in firefox which most people use
[07:53] <snoopy_> I done that.
[07:54] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: and dnsmasq?
[07:54] <snoopy_> No.
[07:54] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: http://sandeep.co.in/2008/01/09/dnsmasq-browse-the-web-faster/
[07:54] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: makes dns take 0ms rather than 40ms
[07:55] <snoopy_> And by better, I mean faster. I used to play AA2 but then it just stopped working it said my internet connection was to slow or something, and i doubt it.
[07:58] <snoopy_> When i put in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf it tells me permission denied
[07:58] <thinkpadx61> i have a bunch of files in the following format "xxxx.xxxxx.avi" that i would like to change to "Xxxx.Xxxxx.avi"
[07:58] <ActionParsnip> snoopy_: buy a faster line. I doubt much tweaking will get you significant speed
[07:58] <thinkpadx61> how should i do that?
[07:58] <krejustin1979> i got this sudo cp ./ linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2 /usr/src
[07:58] <krejustin1979> cp: omitting directory `./'
[07:58] <snoopy_> Well, I believe i do got faster internet
[07:58] <thinkpadx61> krejustin1979: use 'cp -r'
[07:59] <thinkpadx61> krejustin1979: sorry, no
[07:59] <mneptok> thinkpadx61: http://file-folder-ren.sourceforge.net/
[07:59] <mneptok> thinkpadx61: use the "Title Style" rename function
[07:59] <krejustin1979> k
[08:00] <optimus_p> join ##mysql
[08:00] <thinkpadx61> krejustin1979: no, i was right ... use 'cp -r' :-)
[08:00] <Bourreau> What's linux?
[08:00] <krejustin1979> hey do i need to prelink in ubuntu 9.04?
[08:00] <KB1JWQ> !linux
[08:00] <KB1JWQ> Bourreau: ^^
[08:00] <Bourreau> lol I know
[08:00] <thinkpadx61> mneptok: i would like to do it on the command line :-)
[08:00] <thinkpadx61> using e.g. 'sed'
[08:01] <mneptok> thinkpadx61: sorry, regex-fu is a premium service from mneptok ;)
[08:01] <thinkpadx61> which i've started to learn
[08:01] <mneptok> (IOW, i'm lazy)
[08:01] <thinkpadx61> :)
[08:01] <krejustin1979> is saying can not stat not such file or directory
[08:02] <diotro> Does anyone know of an archive mirror that supports the powerpc architecture for the Interpid Ibex (8.10) build? I've been searching all over the place.
[08:02] <thinkpadx61> krejustin1979: what are you trying to do?
[08:02] <diotro> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my PowerMac G4
[08:02] <Total_Oblivion> Is it necessary to install ubuntu netbook release on laptops or can somone install desktop ubuntu too?
[08:03] <krejustin1979> move and unpack a kernel
[08:03] <leaf-sheep> Total_Oblivion: There are no rules.
[08:04] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: try: gksudo nautilus
[08:04] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: you can then move it with GUI
[08:05] <krejustin1979> Whats the best kernel i should use for ubuntu?
[08:05] <snoopy_> Thanks for the help guys, later
[08:05] <Total_Oblivion> leaf-sheep: What is the difference between them? I presume since they have different names they kinda differ:P
[08:06] <KB1JWQ> Total_Oblivion: UNR has a better display for use on small screens.
[08:06] <KB1JWQ> !unr
[08:06] <leaf-sheep> Total_Oblivion: Ubuntu Netbook Remix is a 'remix' of the standard Ubuntu Desktop release to enable it to work better on devices with small screens, such as Netbooks (sub-notebooks)
[08:06] <thinkpadx61> krejustin1979: when copying directories you need to use the -r option with cp (r=recursive)
[08:06] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: there is no one best kernel
[08:07] <Total_Oblivion> Thanx;)
[08:07] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: the kernel you have via updates is known to be good and steady, depends what you mean by best
[08:07] <leaf-sheep> Total_Oblivion: http://tinyurl.com/l3kyke
[08:08] <ActionParsnip> Total_Oblivion: same OS just a different UI more suited to small netbook screens
[08:08] <leaf-sheep> Total_Oblivion: Basically, Ubuntu Netbook Remix is just plain old Ubuntu with some CPU optimizations and a new program launcher designed for devices with small screens.
[08:08] <jlw> if you have at least a resolution of 1024x768, you're best off with the regular old desktop edition of ubuntu
[08:10] <kandjar`> heya;
[08:10] <ActionParsnip> Total_Oblivion: if you like the UI you can use it on any system
[08:10] <kandjar`> something sound really fishy on ubuntu :) security wise;
[08:11] <kandjar`> ubuntu will remember that you did sudo :)
[08:11] <ActionParsnip> kandjar`: theres a grace period, you can reduce it if you wish
[08:11] <kandjar`> so basically if you do sudo once; it asks the pwd; the following usage wont ask for it
[08:11] <ActionParsnip> kandjar`: or use    sudo -k   to end it yourself
[08:11] <Total_Oblivion> aha. So remix is usable by desktops too. Sweet!
[08:11] <kandjar`> but if an app know that leak; it may use the hole right?
[08:11] <ActionParsnip> kandjar`: not for a shot time
[08:11] <krejustin1979> im new to linux and ubuntu I just want to make it as fast... what's some things to do to ubuntu to make it as fast as posible?
[08:11] <kandjar`> ActionParsnip: ok :)
[08:12] <ActionParsnip> Total_Oblivion: sure, ubuntu is ubuntu is ubuntu
[08:12] <xyz> FATAL: Module ehci_hcd not found.

[08:14] <RukusX> I'm trying to get my usb working properly. I read that i should try unloading my ehci_hcd module and uhci_modules. But when i try i get: FATAL: Module ehci_hcd not found.
[08:14] <RukusX> Why would that happen? what do i do to fix that?
[08:14] <UBestB> usb what RukusX ?
[08:14] <RukusX> usb external drive
[08:14] <RukusX> UBestB: usb external drive
[08:15] <UBestB> just modprobe usb_storage
[08:15] <RukusX> UBestB: the drive works, just not usb 2.0 sp;eeds
[08:15] <RukusX> sorry
[08:15] <RukusX> UBestB: its really slow. like less than 1MB/sec
[08:15] <ubuntumau> Hi all can some1 give help with sound device problem?
[08:15] <ActionParsnip> RukusX: did you compile your own kernel?
[08:15] <kandjar`> i dunno why; the video streaming is now broken
[08:15] <RukusX> ActionParsnip:  no
[08:16] <prodigel> hi all. I have an old computer 366Mhz intel processor with 256 Mb Ram, and I want to install ubuntu on it. Any suggestions?
[08:16] <UBestB> hmm... there seems to be a problem with transfers rates, even hard drives don't seem to be up to par, I'm still working on fixing that
[08:16] <ActionParsnip> ubuntumau: run: sudo lshw -C sound
[08:16] <Spike1506> probonic, i suggest Xubuntu
[08:16] <ActionParsnip> ubuntumau: you can use the product line to identify the device and websearch
[08:16] <kandjar`> with 9.04; i try to run any video on youtoube which are longer than 2 minuts; nad between 1m40 and 1m50; it stops playing them
[08:16] <kandjar`> has anybody encounter that issue?
[08:16] <RukusX> UBestB:  I have devices that work at ehci_hcd speed (high speed?)  just not my external drive! and it should.
[08:16] <kandjar`> i tried to copy the flashplayer.so back but it didnt work
[08:17] <ActionParsnip> prodigel: you need a light DE like xfce, lxde or fluxbox
[08:17] <ubuntumau> ActionP: done
[08:17] <UBestB> plug in the usb drive and run dmesg and what does it say?
[08:17] <Bluey> kandjar - ru running 32 or 64 bit?
[08:17] <RukusX> UBestB:  so i decided that i should try to see if i my modules are maybe loading in the correct order, or if i can trick it into not using uhci_hcd ?
[08:17] <ActionParsnip> ubuntumau: use tab to complete my name ;)
[08:17] <ubuntumau> ActionParsnip: kk

[08:18] <Reactor> guys what Linux distribution witn xwindow and RDP server I may install on P333/64MB?
[08:18] <Reactor> with*
[08:18] <UBestB> hmm... running off a hub or straight from the box?
[08:18] <ActionParsnip> Reactor: puppy, dsl, xubuntu, lubuntu
[08:18] <Bluey> reactor - prolly server
[08:18] <RukusX> UBestB:  it looks like it recognizes it can be faster, but chooses not to be
[08:18] <administrator__> if i delete a user is it automatically delete the all document of that user
[08:18] <ActionParsnip> Reactor: crunchbang
[08:19] <ActionParsnip> Reactor: fluxbuntu
[08:19] <Reactor> Ok I'll take a look. Thx to all.
[08:19] <UBestB> administrator_ you can choose whether to remove the user and their directory or just the user
[08:19] <Bourreau> would anyone here happen to have experience using the android API?
[08:19] <OnACow> hello
[08:19] <ActionParsnip> Reactor: i'd personally recommend puppy
[08:19] <anvo> Hi all!
[08:20] <lang2000> hi all
[08:20] <Bluey> Howdy Tex!
[08:20] <anvo> How do I open a CSV file...?
[08:20] <OnACow> my sound is working for music and video playback but it scrambles the sound for login and logout (you know the african ubuntu sounds)
[08:20] <RukusX> UBestB:  any suggestions? i pasted what happens. tell me that i conneected a highspeed device, but its gonna work at full speed anyways because i should connect it to a high speed hub
[08:20] <UBestB> anvo, any spreadsheet software would open it
[08:20] <Reactor> UBestB: from the box
[08:20] <Bourreau> anvo: or just a text editor
[08:20] <anvo> Openoffice Calc does not...
[08:20] <Bourreau> csv = comma separated values
[08:20] <ActionParsnip> anvo: openoffice can do it
[08:21] <Bourreau> it's just a text document with commas and data written in it
[08:21] <Bluey> thanks bourreau
[08:21] <anvo> I choose the correct "file type" but Calc won't open it!
[08:21] <ActionParsnip> anvo: then use gedit, gedit will even open binarys
[08:21] <ubuntumau> ActionParsnip: I've two board : 0: product: Bt878 Audio Capture - and 1:  product: VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller I've lost mic input (maybe after installing gmerlin)
[08:21] <lang2000> why displayconfig-gtk not running in intrepid?
[08:21] <anvo> Neither Gnumeric will!
[08:22] <anvo> ActionParsnip: I'll try!
[08:22] <ActionParsnip> ubuntumau: ok well one it some tv card, the other is what you need. is mic muted?
[08:22] <LaLeche> good time of day folks!
[08:22] <Army> I need applications (with GUI preferably) that can tweak windows from Ubuntu, password changer, intergrity check, etc, and HDD bad sector checker, if any of those is available
[08:22] <anvo> Neither gedit opens the csv file!!!
[08:22] <Reactor> And which light linux distro has RDP srv?
[08:23] <RukusX> any ideas anyone why i can't find my modules?  i can't find echi_hcd or uhci_hcd
[08:23] <karimas> hi all, I have a question, there is a good alternative of Teamviewer that let to give assistence behind routers or firewall?
[08:23] <LaLeche> hey, I installed windows after I put on Linux (didn't have a good partition editor on hand so just went ahead with the installation)
[08:23] <LaLeche> now I've booted up from the CD and chrooted
[08:23] <ubuntumau> ActionParsnip: yes I've cheched different combinations with via or pulseaudio (oss seems to be not available)
[08:23] <UBestB> is that when you run lsmod RukusX ?
[08:23] <raimo_> how do I add more locales to my ubuntu installation?
[08:23] <LaLeche> how do I set up Grub again?
[08:23] <raimo_> there's only C and POSIX when I run locale -a
[08:23] <RukusX> UBestB:  thats when io try to unload them
[08:23] <raimo_> dpkg-reconfigure locales doesn't make it any better
[08:23] <Reactor> raimo_: System>Administration>Language support
[08:23] <UBestB> LaLeche, grub-install I think
[08:24] <raimo_> Reactor: what about with server installation?
[08:24] <LaLeche> UBestB, what if I need to add windows to it?
[08:24] <Reactor> raimo_: from tty?
[08:24] <Reactor> raimo_: hmmmm
[08:24] <UBestB> grub should detect it
[08:24] <raimo_> Reactor: yeah
[08:24] <Reactor> raimo_: sorry idk
[08:24] <UBestB> and create the entries for it appropriately
[08:24] <ActionParsnip> ubuntumau: okwell now we have info, lets see if the room cn reply. Do some websearching for yuor sound card. I gotta check some backups
[08:25] <anvo> Any ideas how to hack Openoffice Calc or gedit to open a CSV file?
[08:25] <matt2154> ikonia: you around?
[08:25] <LaLeche> UBestB, thanks bud
[08:25] <geirha> raimo_: locale-gen
[08:25] <lang2000> thx Anvo
[08:25] <UBestB> anvo, what happens when you try to open it in openoffice calc or gedit anvo?
[08:25] <shrini> I want to free the disk-space by uninstalling big packages. how to  find the big package installed?
[08:25] <RukusX> UBestB:  blond moment here, how can i get lsmod to print everything page by page ?
[08:25] <ubuntumau> ActionParsnip: good I do search
[08:26] <UBestB> lsmod | more
[08:26] <anvo> UBestB: A dialog windows appears which I leave as is...!
[08:26] <RukusX> thanks
[08:26] <raimo_> geirha: it doesn't do anything
[08:26] <geirha> raimo_: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/3707
[08:27] <UBestB> think that window is asking about how the csv is set up, because a delimiter should be a comma but sometimes it can be different, so you need to configure that dialog to make sure it knows how to handle the csv file
[08:27] <RukusX> ubestb the only thing in there remotely close is ohci1394  . other than that, no ehci_hcd or uhci_hcd
[08:28] <UBestB> what does modprobe ehci_hcd do?
[08:28] <raimo_> geirha: thank you very much, I ran locale-gen <localename> and was able to get the locales I needed
[08:28] <anvo> UBestB: I know, but what to choose in that window...
[08:28] <Bourreau> anvo: are you opening the file by opening gedit and then going to 'Open'?
[08:28] <ActionParsnip> UBestB: that'll need sudo
[08:28] <anvo> Bourreau: I did that, too!
[08:28] <UBestB> I thought I'd save me RSI as most commands I say need sudo :P
[08:29] <RukusX> ubestb ? in simple terms because that works best for me, it loads the capabilities of your usb to be able to take advantage of usb 2.0 speeds on your device
[08:29] <lang2000> I have a webcam in Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0c45:6143 Microdia
[08:29] <lang2000>  but camorama did not decet it
[08:29] <ActionParsnip> UBestB: not most, you can damage your system if you run many files with sudo
[08:29] <RukusX> and sudo modprobe -r ehci_hcd unloads that module
[08:29] <Rei-chan> Does Ubuntu 9.04 have drivers for on-board digitizer pens?
[08:29] <Bourreau> anvo: when you go to "Open", can you actually see the file when it's asking you which file to open?
[08:29] <krejustin1979> what's better ubuntu fedora or debian?
[08:30] <anvo> Bourreau: Yes, I can!
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: they are all equal
[08:30] <RukusX> krejustin1979: for you, because you have to ask, Ubuntu
[08:30] <Bourreau> and you're double clicking on it?
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: none are better or best, or we'd all use it
[08:30] <anvo> Bourreau: I did that...
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: best is an opinion so can never be concrete
[08:30] <Bourreau> and the dialog window that comes up...what does it say?
[08:31] <RukusX> krejustin1979: i asked myself that same question about gnome and kde and different flavors of linux before.. and i realized if i had to ask, to go with the one that seemed the most popular among peopel who are coming from windows.
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: there are hundreds of distros other than those 3
[08:31] <RukusX> krejustin1979:  check out linux mint too
[08:31] <anvo> Bourreau: Just double clicking the file opens an empty CSV file!
[08:31] <krejustin1979> well is fedora ext4?
[08:31] <Bourreau> then the file is empty
[08:31] <Bourreau> lol
[08:31] <anvo> Bourreau: The same happens when I open the file through "Open" dialog!
[08:31] <RukusX> anyways i am going to bed. i can;t solve this usb problem tonight. i know i am not the only one. its terrible.
[08:31] <krejustin1979> and i hear debian is fast
[08:32] <Bourreau> lol...maybe it's because the file is empty?
[08:32] <RukusX> good nite
[08:32] <RukusX> thanks anyways
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: try it, see how you like it
[08:32] <Bourreau> anvo: as a test, in gedit go to "New" and type whatever you want it it, with commas if you want
[08:33] <Bourreau> then click Save and save as test.csv
[08:33] <Bourreau> then open it
[08:33] <anvo> Just a sec!
[08:34] <cushiongrip> test
[08:35] <ActionParsnip> !test | cushiongrip
[08:35] <babar-ali> #myspaceid
[08:35] <anvo> Bourreau: I gave "echo "1,2,3">test_csv.csv" and then opened that file in Calc and it shows OK...!
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> anvo: the first one you have must be corrupt or bad in some way, or be badly named
[08:36] <anvo> Hmmm
[08:36] <krejustin1979> how do i check if i have a 64 or 32 bit processor?
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> anvo: what is the output of: file <whatever file you have>
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: uname -a
[08:36] <patzid> Hello! I've got Ubuntu 9.04 installed on a PC with integrated graphics (Intel GMA X4500HD). But video is much worse in Ubuntu than on the dual-booted WinXP. First of all, how do I know/check if I have the drivers for Intel GMA installed?
[08:36] <nemesis1911> I just gotta quick qestion
[08:36] <Spike1506> krejustin1979, most modern processors are 64bit

[08:38] <obiwan__> i need to test sth
[08:38] <Reactor> snuxoll: and what IDE u can advise me to use with python, pygtk or glade?
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> lang2000: websearch for: 0c45:6143     it will give you answers
[08:38] <krejustin1979>  lshw -class cpu worked well
[08:38] <anvo> Some fields are OK but others are ##### !
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: its the arch of te OS that dictates what you install

[08:39] <krejustin1979> so how do i know what linux mint to install?
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> anvo: exceldoes exactly the same thing
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> !mint | krejustin1979
[08:40] <anvo> ActionParsnip: OK it worked!  I was wrong: under windows I opened it with MS Excell!
[08:40] <Army> I would like a list of applications (with GUI Preferably) that tweaks windows from Ubuntu, Change windows password, check integrity and repair (IF available) and check HDD for bad sectors...
[08:40] <parkadodge> can someone please help me unrar ive been trying to figure this out for weeks and cant get it to work
[08:40] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: you need to look at wat your cpu is, you will be able to run 32bit on both 64 and 32bit CPUs, 32bit is limited to about 3GbR RAM
[08:40] <thecommutist> Total_Oblivion: xmms
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: sudo apt-get install rar unrar
[08:41] <Army> parkadodge: what;s the package extension ?
[08:41] <parkadodge> i have unrar
[08:41] <Army> parkadodge: try action's wait
[08:41] <Army> parkadodge: try ActionParsnip's way
[08:41] <parkadodge> package ewhats that
[08:41] <parkadodge> sorry
[08:41] <cheater> hi guys
[08:41] <cheater> i've got a big problem
[08:42] <kandjar`> has anyone encounter issue trying to watch videos (using flashplayer)? video which stops in random position
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: its a terminal command
[08:42] <parkadodge> whats ActionParsnip's
[08:42] <cheater> it seems synaptic has 'hung up' on installing a package
[08:42] <kandjar`> it's freaking annoying
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: sudo apt-get install rar unrar
[08:42] <krejustin1979> well im downloadiing the main addition because it says its more stable but the 64 is optimized for 64 so u would think that would be just as stable if u have a 64 bit right?
[08:42] <Total_Oblivion> thecommutist: do i have to sudo opt to get it?
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: then the command is: rar x <rar file>
[08:42] <parkadodge> ya i know
[08:43] <parkadodge> but then theres a folder thats added and nothing in it
[08:43] <vudoo> anyone know how to fix it where my HardDrive isn't showing up in the partitioner...
[08:43] <thecommutist> Total_Oblivion: I'm not sure whether it is available in the repos, google for it
[08:43] <ActionParsnip> !rar | parkadodge
[08:43] <Total_Oblivion> thecommutist: kk cheers:)
[08:43] <anvo> Calc under windows opens the CSV file, but not under ubuntu!
[08:43] <parkadodge> if i do it in the terminal i never get progress i get an error
[08:43] <thecommutist> !xmms
[08:43] <Army> I would like a list of applications (with GUI Preferably) that tweaks windows from Ubuntu, Change windows password, check integrity and repair (IF available) and check HDD for bad sectors... can anyone help?
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: sounds like a bad file to me
[08:44] <parkadodge> its every file
[08:44] <thecommutist> !xmms | Total_Oblivion
[08:44] <cheater> it's hung up on 'preparing packages...' - and it shows this error: 147: can't open /usr/share/dbconfig-common-dpkg/config.pgsql bandwidthd-pgsql failed to preconfigure with exit status 2
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: check the factoid
[08:44] <matt2154> ikonia: I'm not sure if you'll get this message - but it appears my NFS login problem has to do with the start-pulseaudio-x11 process.  If I log into one of my NFS users, then drop to a console and kill that process, I get to the desktop just fine.  I think gnome failsafe mode doesn't try to provide proper audio support...
[08:45] <geirha> anvo: What does the file-command identify the csv-file as?  file thefile.csv
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: sudo apt-get install unrar-free
[08:45] <anvo> geirha: Empty file!
[08:45] <parkadodge> when i use that it asks for a password
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: try: unrar-free <file>
[08:45] <geirha> anvo: Then it's a bit hard to know it's supposed to be a csv-file ...
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: yes, you need to install a package
[08:46] <parkadodge> what do you mean
[08:46] <Yogotiss> Building drivers for a D610
[08:46] <matt2154> Anyone got any suggestions on testing my sound card?  I cannot get sound out of it beyond the double drum beat when GDM is ready for a username...
[08:47] <krejustin1979> anyone running windows 7?
[08:47] <ActionParsnip> parkadodge: when you ran the install line to install unrar-free you need to provide your password so that the system can validate you as you so that the package unrar-freecan be installed
[08:47] <ActionParsnip> !ot | krejustin1979
[08:47] <vudoo> Conjurer: you still around?
[08:47] <xaashi> hi does anyone know where the  mingw32 package manual is located in the ubuntu repos.  thanks
[08:47] <Bluey> vudoo - I think he's off to work atm
[08:47] <indus> krejustin1979: #windows
[08:47] <vudoo> Bluey: thanks..
[08:47] <UBestB> anvo, who owns the csv file?
[08:47] <qq99> krejustin1979, I was running Windows 7
[08:47] <anvo> I do...
[08:47] <parkadodge> no im saying when i use it to unrar it says something about archive then asks for a password
[08:48] <Bluey> xaashi -- sorry I don't know...
[08:48] <vudoo> how come my harddrive doesn't show up in the partition editor?
[08:48] <UBestB> try sudo file thecsv.csv
[08:48] <krejustin1979> i just wanted to know if anyone liked it
[08:48] <vudoo> or am i missing something?
[08:48] <parkadodge> its not my password either ive tried it a billion times
[08:48] <xaashi> Bluey:  thanks
[08:48] <ActionParsnip> krejustin1979: its offtopic here, this is support
[08:48] <anvo> UBestB: ok!
[08:48] <krejustin1979> ok sorry
[08:48] <geirha> xaashi: Don't know, but look in /usr/share/doc/<packagename>/
[08:49] <UBestB> parkadodge: it's probably a password protected rar file
[08:49] <thecommutist> parkadodge: the rar file itself seems to be password protected
[08:49] <jlw> as far as windows goes, win 7 is good, but you won't catch me saying that in here
[08:49] <anvo> UBestB: sudo file *.csv gives "empty", too!
[08:49] <parkadodge> i think im just going to stay away from rar thanks any way
[08:49] <UBestB> anvo, I guess that file is empty then
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> anvo: whatsthe output of: du -h <file>
[08:50] <xaashi> geirha: just the usual "README.Debian  changelog.Debian.gz  copyright" in /usr/share/doc/mingw32 ... none of the man files
[08:50] <Total_Oblivion> thecommutist: I install via add/remove once downloaded?
[08:50] <anvo> ActionParsnip: Just a sec
[08:50] <Bluey> jlw - seen this about windows 7?  http://tech.slashdot.org/story/09/09/14/1338207/Windows-7-Upgrade-Can-Take-Nearly-a-Day?from=rss
[08:50] <geirha> xaashi: dpkg -L mingw32 | grep man
[08:51] <anvo> ActionParsnip: 0
[08:51] <jlw> yeah, I read about that
[08:51] <vudoo> Should i create an empty partition on my harddrive before i try and install even tho partition editor should do that for me?
[08:51] <Yogotiss> Slashdot
[08:51] <jlw> I've never transfered anything over from installation to installation
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> anvo: theres no data in the file
[08:51] <jlw> I think that's what that article is about, right?
[08:51] <Bluey> okay the kitties are cajoling -- nytol.....
[08:51] <anvo> But it prints under Windows with Calc or Excell!
[08:52] <thecommutist> Total_Oblivion: you can use add/remove to install, it automatically downloads the required packages and proceeds with installation
[08:52] <thecommutist> Total_Oblivion: did u finf xmms in add/remove?
[08:52] <ActionParsnip> anvo: then its being read wrong in linux somehow or is formatted in some weird way
[08:52] <anvo> ActionParsnip: Hmmm!
[08:52] <ActionParsnip> anvo: or you dont have read access to the file
[08:53] <xaashi> geirha:  "dpkg -L mingw32 | grep man" lists "/usr/share/man" and "/usr/share/man1" but there is no entry in them ..
[08:53] <geirha> xaashi: Then it appears there's no manual pages in that package
[08:53] <Total_Oblivion> thecommutist: I find xmms2tray and gxmms2...
[08:54] <anvo> ActionParsnip: What should happened if I make the file executable?
[08:54] <xaashi> geirha: was worried that might be the case, thank you for your time
[08:54] <ActionParsnip> anvo: the file will go green in terminal outputs
[08:54] <UBestB> anvo, it's a text file, it doesn't need executable rights
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> anvo: and the OS will see it as a binary
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> anvo: from windows, email youself the file
[08:55] <anvo> What a mess!!!
[08:55] <jlw> anyone here know ifyou can save color schemes in xchat-gnome?
[08:55] <thecommutist> Total_Oblivion: gxmms2 is the one
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> anvo: if the file is on a partition with no read access or you dont have read access to that file, I am unsure if the file size is reported too
[08:57] <Total_Oblivion> thecommustis: says "xmms2d is not running"

[09:29] <BlackFate> jpds, there is no pidgin in karmic

It works just fine. But when I change my windows manager (openbox, fluxbox, ... ) they all run realy realy sluggish, specially when I try to drag windows. I have no idea how to approach this problem. Any ideas anyone?

[09:46] <indus> shahdharmit: what is the procedure you followed in fedora to connect to the internet?
[09:46] <indus> shahdharmit: ok did you try the network manager applet?
[09:47] <shahdharmit> indus: Simply I click on NetworkManager where modem is automatically detected and that's it.
[09:47] <indus> shahdharmit: this is adsl connection?

[09:48] <shahdharmit> Can't ping google but on Ubuntuforums.org, there was a similar link and I could ping that I{
[09:48] <BaGy> xD
[09:49] <pshr_> Myrtti, try nslookup to see if your ISP uses DNS servers
[09:49] <Myrtti> pshr_: thanks, my Internets works fine ;-)
[09:49] <shahdharmit> myrtti : I did try that but couldn't get any response.
[09:49] <indus> iam not familiar with gprs connections
[09:49] <pshr_> well Myrtti my bad

[09:50] <shahdharmit> indus : Ok m booting Ubuntu and repying you guys in 5 mins. I surf using Fedora 11 right now.
[09:51] <indus> i wonder how he can connect in 5 min if he cant configure the modem
[09:51] <Guest94245> can someone help me unpackage a .tar.bz2 in my /usr file? (I think I prob need the command for terminal)... :/
[09:51] <indus> damn
[09:52] <Guest94245> unpack... not unpackage... well, maybe both work, but I might've made the second one up.
[09:52] <shneedlwoods> Guest94245, man tar
[09:52] <Guest94245> oh yeah... thanks.
[09:53] <shneedlwoods> :P
[09:53] <Guest94245> do you have an easy way that I can find info on how to register my nick on here? haha
[09:54] <DJones> !register | Guest94245
[09:54] <rohit> How do I switch workspaces using the keyboard?
[09:54] <Guest94245> wait... I think I figured that oout.
[09:54] <Guest94245> ooh. thanks!
[09:55] <indus> Guest94245: tar xjvf <filename>
[09:55] <shneedlwoods> rohit, strg+alt+left/right
[09:55] <ZoeyMarie> I suppose that could work... ?
[09:55] <ZoeyMarie> tar kjvf and then the location of the file? or just the file name?
[09:55] <rohit> shneedlwoods, thanks :)
[09:56] <shneedlwoods> np
[09:56] <indus> ZoeyMarie: location  for example tar xjvf /usr/filename
[09:56] <ZoeyMarie> awesome. thank you so much!! :D
[09:57] <indus> ZoeyMarie: also remember if its a tar.gz use tar xzvf
[09:58] <ZoeyMarie> ahhhhh... thanks. I'll keep that in mind. :)
[09:59] <ZoeyMarie> that'll just unpack it to the folder that it's in, right? how would I append it to unpack into a different folder?
[10:00] <indus> ZoeyMarie: hmm that i dont know
[10:00] <ZoeyMarie> haha... it's okay. I don't need to know it right now, anyways. :)
[10:01] <ZoeyMarie> dangit! there's still a build error doing the module assistant. :( what's going on?
[10:01] <acuster> hey all, I have two packages that apt is 'keeping back' and I'd like to find the version numbers of those packages on the command line
[10:01] <acuster> anyone have a hint how to go about that?
[10:01] <shahdharmit> Myrtti: U guys there?
[10:01] <acuster> thans
[10:01] <acuster> thanks
[10:01] <shneedlwoods> ZoeyMarie, -C
[10:02] <ZoeyMarie> on the end of the m-a command?
[10:02] <shahdharmit> I did ping and it did give me a positive response.
[10:02] <shneedlwoods> tar -xvjf filename.tar.gz -C /path
[10:02] <shneedlwoods> oh
[10:02] <ZoeyMarie> oh. haha.
[10:02] <ZoeyMarie> any help with my build error? :)
[10:02] <shneedlwoods> tar.bz2 ^^
[10:03] <indus> shneedlwoods: -C for what?
[10:03] <ZoeyMarie> for extracting it to another dir.
[10:03] <shahdharmit> indus: There seems some problem with Firefox.
[10:03] <shneedlwoods> yes
[10:03] <ZoeyMarie> wait... was that "yes" in response to my question? (oh hope of hopes)
[10:03] <shneedlwoods> yes :p
[10:03] <ZoeyMarie> haha
[10:04] <indus> shneedlwoods: aah yes i see, but his will extract it to another dire? if so,then sh
[10:04] <shahdharmit> indus: there's no issue about the gprs connection, I guess. ping happens perfectly. The only thing is that firefox can't surf
[10:04] <shneedlwoods> http://linuxwave.blogspot.com/2008/02/extracting-tar-into-chosen-directory.html
[10:04] <ZoeyMarie> his?
[10:04] <Myrtti> shahdharmit: with plain ip or with an url?
[10:04] <ZoeyMarie> wait... that's supposed to solve the build error?...
[10:04] <indus> shahdharmit: ahh ok in firefox menu uncheck the option work offline under file menu
[10:04] <ZoeyMarie> (it extracted just fine)
[10:04] <spidla> Hi everyone, I have a question. Since last update (yesterday) I am experiencing some errors on boot saying something about udev. unknown key 'SYMLINK{unique}' in /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules:4
[10:04] <shahdharmit> Myrtti: pLain Ip
[10:04] <shahdharmit> Shall i paste the output here?
[10:05] <spidla> and since than I dont have a boot splash screen on boot
[10:05] <shahdharmit> It's not offline. I know that issue so I always check it when I face some problem
[10:05] <Myrtti> shahdharmit: you can try to change your dns nameservers to <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>.
[10:05] <shneedlwoods> opendns :)
[10:05] <indus> spidla: this is a karmic error, please go to #ubuntu+1
[10:05] <ZoeyMarie> :/
[10:06] <spidla> indus: ouch right sorry
[10:06] <indus> :)
[10:06] <shahdharmit> Myrtti: And what change that would make? I know it's in Edit Connections in NM, right?
[10:06] <indus> shahdharmit: or call the isp to get alternative dns numbers if thats possible
[10:06] <ZoeyMarie> dang... no one has any input to my build errors? :(
[10:06] <indus> ZoeyMarie: what errors? you didnt state the problem
[10:06] <Myrtti> shahdharmit: it looks like you're not getting right dns reversal, ie. urls aren't modified to ip addresses, so getting another dns nameserver might help
[10:06] <shahdharmit> indus: Nice Idea. I need to find some technical person there.
[10:07] <indus> shahdharmit: just dont tell them you using linux,
[10:07] <Myrtti> shahdharmit: you can ask your isp or try if opendns servers work - if the opendns ones work you know you've got a problem with dns
[10:07] <indus> shahdharmit: they are dumb or dont know about it
[10:07] <shahdharmit> Myrtti: Ok. I get same error always-"Address not found". So this is DNS server issue, right?
[10:08] <indus> shahdharmit: Myrtti option is good too, opendns servers work too, i tried it,was too slow for me though
[10:08] <shahdharmit> indus: Yeah.  I don't know how to select all the text in that screen (it won't really let me), and there are several errors in the log viewer...
[10:08] <indus> shahdharmit: Myrtti so i just called my isp and he gave me alternative dns
[10:08] <gioele> hello
[10:09] <indus> ZoeyMarie: run the command with > hello.txt
[10:09] <ZoeyMarie> okay.
[10:09] <indus> ZoeyMarie: i think ,let me check
[10:09] <shahdharmit> indus: Can you give me the address? Maybe that would work...
[10:09] <gioele> what is the correct procedure to report a papercut bug? Should I just add it to the one hundred papercut project?
[10:10] <indus> shahdharmit: i have diff isp :)
[10:10] <indus> shahdharmit: also now iam at work, so proxy server

[10:14] <indus> ZoeyMarie: i dont know that command
[10:15] <indus> ZoeyMarie: what exactly are you trying to do? did u finish untaring the package?
[10:15] <DJones> rdm_: It mentions one called termiatorx described as a realtime audio synthesizer, I don't know anything about the package, but perhaps somewhere to start looking
[10:15] <ZoeyMarie> yeah, it extracted into the right folder.
[10:15] <indus> ZoeyMarie: then what you want to do now?
[10:15] <rdm_> i find some synth in synaptic
[10:16] <ZoeyMarie> but now I need to install the actual thingie (drivers for the webcam)... i am supposed to use module assistant to install it... but I get build errors when I run it.
[10:16] <rdm_> now
[10:16] <rdm_> i look for for yours
[10:16] <rdm_> wait
[10:16] <rdm_> :)
[10:17] <indus> ZoeyMarie: which instructions aer you following for this? what webcam is this?
[10:17] <indus> !module
[10:19] <ZoeyMarie> it's a logitech quickcam communicate STX... it uses the gpsca-source drivers to run... it's in synaptic... I downloaded the package (the tar.bz2) and then extracted it to the modules folder. the readme gave me those commands, but then, after doing the step with the m-a it comes back with errors in the m-a log viewer thingie.
[10:19] <ZoeyMarie> I can paste the readme, or something?
[10:19] <indus> ZoeyMarie: this webcam should work outof the box, did u check the hardware list
[10:20] <aleron6> does anybody know i can find out which version of alsa im using
[10:20] <ZoeyMarie> hardware list? haha
[10:20] <indus> ZoeyMarie: gspca drivers are built into the kernel as a module which is loaded when it detects a device
[10:20] <indus> !hardware
[10:20] <ZoeyMarie> it hasn't been working, though...
[10:20] <indus> aleron6: in terminal type alsactl -v
[10:21] <indus> ZoeyMarie: which application did you use to test the cam?
[10:21] <ZoeyMarie> the last it was checked was in nov. 2008... and it said it didn't work in 8.10... maybe it doesn't work in 9.04?
[10:22] <indus> ZoeyMarie: you always should use latest vrsions for support for latest devices
[10:22] <ZoeyMarie> I've been trying sound stuff, honestly (it has a mic in it)... I tried the f-spot thingie, but it said it couldn't detect a camera.
[10:22] <ZoeyMarie> what what?
[10:22] <indus> ZoeyMarie: logitechs work very well in ubuntu
[10:22] <ZoeyMarie> ...
[10:22] <indus> ZoeyMarie: whats the output of lsusb
[10:22] <indus> !paste | ZoeyMarie
[10:23] <ZoeyMarie> it totally lists it...  I have ubuntu-studio, and there's pulse on here...
[10:45] <indus> aleron6: so is this a laptop?
[10:45] <jahoomr> sometime my ubuntu9.04 is very slow
[10:45] <aleron6> no desktop and jaunty
[10:45] <indus> !pulseaudio | ZoeyMarie
[10:46] <indus> ZoeyMarie: its an audio server which uses alsa or whatever as the underlying library to play sound,it has capabilities for multiple audio devices , lets you play multiple streams of audio simultaneously
[10:46] <ZoeyMarie> so wouldn't I want that one, since I have an audio-intensive computer?
[10:47] <indus> ZoeyMarie: itss installed by default
[10:47] <ZoeyMarie> that's what I thought.
[10:47] <indus> aleron6: so you have removed pulseaudio already?
[10:47] <ZoeyMarie> someone said that it might be causing problems for me, too...
[10:47] <indus> ZoeyMarie: naah it works fine generally
[10:47] <indus> ZoeyMarie: its nice
[10:47] <aleron6> i already to you i dont have pulse audio i have alsa

[10:48] <indus> aleron6: ok
[10:48] <ZoeyMarie> then how do I get this dang mic to work? haha
[10:48] <indus> aleron6: just crackling sound is diffucult to diagnose
[10:48] <aleron6> so i do iupgrade alsa then
[10:48] <indus> aleron6: so is your machine all updated?
[10:48] <aleron6> yes
[10:49] <ZoeyMarie> what would the command line be to run sound recorder? it's not in my applications tab.

[10:54] <pshr_> any ideas on how to decrypt password in unix ?
[10:55] <Sicilia2> indus: i try brasero k3b and ubuntu burn ,, i try in terminal ,, cdrecord .....
[10:55] <mechdave> aleron6, probably would be best to use a command line player for troubleshooting your problems, try mplayer file_name.mp3
[10:55] <indus> Sicilia2: DOES it  burn in windows?
[10:56] <Sicilia2> indus: yes
[10:56] <mquin> pshr_: technically you can't decrypt them - the encryption used is one-way. There are brute force methods of determining what the password was, such as http://www.openwall.com/john/
[10:56] <indus> Sicilia2: which version of ubuntu
[10:57] <ZoeyMarie> okay. I'm really getting annoyed, and I'm really trying everything that I can... can someone help me figure out why this mic isn't recording?
[10:57] <Sicilia2> indus: not only on ubuntu , kubuntu , suse .. but now i used kubuntu 9.04
[10:57] <pshr_> mquin, you referring to JTR
[10:57] <mquin> pshr_: yes
