[17:56] <luisa> How to make Choose a Profile window show up when I launch Firefox?
[17:56] <EADG> aoupi: Thanks for the heads up, better take a look at dban...
[17:56] <iTF|Prometheus> ejer, I'll take a look - thanks
[17:57] <DrOwl> luisa, try firefox -P
[17:57] <aoupi> EADG: :)
[17:57] <S4nt4> hello, I need help with gmd: it s locked on a screen resolution ignoring what I change into xorg.conf...
[17:57] <DRebellion> luisa, perhaps: firefox -ProfileManager
[17:57] <ejer> EADG: DBAN is for totally destroying ALL data on a disk
[17:57] <EADG> Oh, dban is Boot And Nuke... not what I'm need.
[17:57] <ejer> not certain files
[17:58] <ejer> encrypt them using encfs
[17:58] <c1|freaky> is there any tool with which u can see the changes of a directory since the last run of the program?
[17:58] <luisa> Did work, thanks DRebellion
[17:58] <DRebellion> EADG, have you considered dd if=/dev/random of=arg1 or so?
[17:58] <karen> hi
[17:58] <EADG> ejer: Ya, I see that on the link you posted, I just need something to zap files when I delete 'em
[17:58] <danand_> k4k - that usually happens when you are not root or you try to use more than one package to install software. Apt prevents this by using a lock file in /var/lib/apt i think.
[17:58] <mino> hi i just plugin my headset, the sound of the boxes is still there and also on the headset :/ but i want only sound on my headset... already checked the mixer no option to turn boxes off
[17:58] <EADG> DRebellion: I had awhile ago, but thought wipe was a better alternative.
[17:58] <ejer> EADG: depends how securely you want to do it
[17:59] <ejer> but nothing is as good as encrypting
[17:59] <sdsheeks> EADG: I use truecrypt for sensitive stuff.
[17:59] <ejer> nor as easy/fast
[17:59] <DRebellion> EADG, stick it inside a for loop then
[17:59] <mkrufky> who handles those cd requests on shipit.ubuntu.com ?
[18:00] <EADG> DRebellion: how would I set that up to delete one file?
[18:00] <aoupi> EADG: I think the alternate install CD supports encrypting the root drive from the start (I've never tired it though)
[18:00] <erUSUL> mkrufky: canonical
[18:00] <DRebellion> EADG, put it in a script
[18:00] <mysterycool> how can i login to mysqladmin as another user?
[18:00] <mysterycool> mysqladmin -u username ?
[18:00] <DRebellion> mysterycool, have you tried mysqladmin -u username?
[18:00] <mysterycool> yes
[18:00] <vbabiy> mysterycool: it asks you for your useranem
[18:00] <mkrufky> i regularly order those cd's because i am handing them out to people, converting them into linux users .....    i am a contributor to the linux kernel, and they usually approve my requests.....  my latest request was NOT approved -- how do I find out why?
[18:00] <EADG> DRebellion: My scripting abilityies are fail :) But I'll look into it this afternoon... gimme something to do.
[18:00] <mkrufky> erUSUL: ^

[18:02] <ejer> EADG: that is still not securely deleted using /dev/random on journaled filesystems
[18:03] <underwatercow> Is there any major benefit to using an alternate install CD to do a basic install and add things manually?
[18:03] <mysterycool> vbabiy: no
[18:03] <DrOwl> Can any one help with trying to get (compiz) Visual Effects working... when i try enable them i just get a message saying "Desktop Effects could not be enabled"
[18:03] <norml_advocate> will someone look over this terminal stuff and tell me if it will work in gutsy.  It is supposed to give me access to levels.  So I can boot into a terminal and move into the gnome with a command http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56765/plain/
[18:03] <vbabiy> S4nt4: o mine was just larger then it should be
[18:03] <DRebellion> underwatercow, i think you mean the minimal install
[18:03] <S4nt4> vbabiy, lucky you !
[18:03] <IndyGunFreak> underwatercow: well, if you have a system w/ low resources, alt. install cd is good.
[18:03] <pablo889> hi
[18:03] <S4nt4> vbabiy, you have an ati card ?
[18:03] <pablo889> can somebody help me with my internet?
[18:03] <underwatercow> DRebellion: Is that the only reason you would want to?
[18:03] <mosomaci> Good evening
[18:03] <IndyGunFreak> underwatercow: minimal install cd is different from alt. install.
[18:03] <EADG> ejer: scrolling up to hunt for cmd... sec
[18:03] <vbabiy> S4nt4: did
[18:04] <k4k> prince_jammys: when I run that command I get this
[18:04] <k4k> dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system
[18:04] <vbabiy> mysterycool: check out the man pages
[18:04] <underwatercow> IndyGunFreak: I thought a minimal install was done from the alt.
[18:04] <ejer> EADG: you cannot wipe files properly on a journaled filesystem
[18:04] <norml_advocate> pablo889 just ask a question
[18:04] <IndyGunFreak> underwatercow: not that i know of.
[18:04] <vbabiy> mysterycool: mysqladmin -u should work
[18:04] <Donkey718666> i have a question!!
[18:04] <norml_advocate> will someone look over this terminal stuff and tell me if it will work in gutsy.  It is supposed to give me access to levels.  So I can boot into a terminal and move into the gnome with a command http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56765/plain/

[18:05] <Donkey718666> oh ok
[18:05] <prince_jammys> k4k: that command usually takes care of the problem
[18:05] <S4nt4> vbabiy, I can't believe there is no solution to this !
[18:05] <ejer> EADG: that is the command that will not work :)

[18:05] <EADG> Doh!

[18:08] <norml_advocate> ejer do you have a better idea for simpler code?   someone told me you could not access levels in gutsy.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runlevel
[18:08] <S4nt4> Does anyone know how to change gdm resolution when it ignores xorg.conf ?
[18:08] <ejer> norml_advocate: depends what you want to do...
[18:08] <ejer> norml_advocate: I would remove gdm from starting at bootup, so you will always startin command line mode
[18:08] <Silvercircle> hi, i search a tool which can convert mkv container into a dvd image or avi files without loss of quality. anybody knows ?
[18:08] <norml_advocate> how do you remove gdm altogethor?
[18:08] <Lorenz1> Hello all!!
[18:09] <mon^rch> help... my wine menu disappeared. is there a tool that can re-generate it?
[18:09] <danbhfive> S4nt4: why do you even want to do that?  I don't have an answer, but its just a login screen...
[18:09] <thierry> salut
[18:09] <ejer> norml_advocate: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[18:09] <Lorenz1> I just installed ubuntu + ubuntu studio...
[18:09] <IndyGunFreak> mon^rch: it disappeared, or you deleted it?
[18:09] <artti> Weird, my Xubuntu desktop changed to Ubuntu desktop.
[18:09] <norml_advocate> and then how would i access gdm once booted?
[18:09] <ahorriblemess> hello everyone
[18:09] <Lorenz1> first time ever Linux worked with my laptop integrated wifi :D
[18:09] <mon^rch> IndyGunFreak: yeah... I think so :P
[18:09] <Donkey718666> so when i install ubuntu how do i get all my driver back on the computer?
[18:09] <k4k> can someone list the files in their /varcache/apt and tell me howmany files they have please?
[18:09] <ejer> norml_advocate: then to start grafix you do 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start'
[18:09] <EADG> ejer: Naw, not worried at all, I just go through drives alot... usually pass down the old ones to friends/family, no biggie really. I thought wiping on the fly with Wipe would save abit of time nuking the drive before pulling it.
[18:09] <vbabiy> Lorenz1:
[18:09] <pablo889> hola
[18:09] <IndyGunFreak> mon^rch: well thast not really an answer.
[18:09] <S4nt4> danbhfive, sure but its locked into a resolution my screen does not support !
[18:09] <vbabiy> Lorenz1: Wifi works well with ubuntu
[18:09] <mon^rch> IndyGunFreak: er deleted it
[18:09] <ejer> EADG: what you do is use DBAN after you are done with drive
[18:10] <S4nt4> danbhfive, so i have a blank screen
[18:10] <danbhfive> S4nt4: ah, now that IS a problem
[18:10] <ahorriblemess> I've downloaded and extracted a .tar.bz2 file, (MokoiGaming) but how do I install it? I tried "./configre ; make ; make install" but each of those commands come back with errors.

[18:15] <Donkey718666> kk thank you! Also would you say that it is better then Windows Vista?
[18:15] <IndyGunFreak> Donkey718666: well, start at http://www.ubuntu.com then look at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu/Gutsy
[18:15] <ejer> clocKwize: system>preferences>settings
[18:15] <ahorriblemess> Drebellion: xml files
[18:15] <mosomaci> s4nt4 really 1280×1024 resolution
[18:15] <ejer> clocKwize: duh... sessions
[18:15] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, =/
[18:15] <S4nt4> mosomaci, yes, why ?
[18:15] <ejer> clocKwize: system>preferences>sessions
[18:16] <clocKwize> i can't see anyway to add stuff to that
[18:16] <IndyGunFreak> Donkey718666: an abacus is better than Windows Vista
[18:16] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: one is creating games, the other is main, can't seem to open them though
[18:16] <vbabiy> Donkey718666: I personally would say yes... But it all depends on the user
[18:16] <geekahedron> prince_jammys: it already has a 'quiet' line .. does that have to be first?
[18:16] <mosomaci> slowly window
[18:16] <gatestone> ahorriblemess, try "./linuxengine-bin"
[18:16] <ejer> clocKwize: add button?
[18:16] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, have you tried with your web browser?
[18:16] <k4k> prince_jammys: ok, looks like I'm missing pkgcache.bin in /var/cache/apt
[18:16] <ahorriblemess> gatestone: ok
[18:16] <mosomaci> good question?
[18:16] <danbhfive> S4nt4: well, try changing the order of the resolutions on the Modes line, see if that helps, other than that, i dont know
[18:16] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: I just clicked "run file"
[18:16] <ahorriblemess> nothing happened
[18:17] <IndyGunFreak> Donkey718666: download hte live CD, and see if you like it, it works for lots of folks, doesn't work for some, figure out what programs you use in Windows, and see if you can find Linux alternatives.
[18:17] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, open up firefox, and do file:///path/to/xmlfile.xml
[18:17] <ahorriblemess> gatestone: same thing
[18:17] <S4nt4> danbhfive, I've tried in every possible way. Including letting 1280x1024 alone...Does not work
[18:17] <irishdave> hey, ive messed up my install, i had installed ubuntu, then opensuse on a seperate partition. I then decided to format the opensuse partition to give me more space. sadly its not booting anymore, i think i need to reinstall grub to the mbr
[18:17] <irishdave> how?
[18:17] <vbabiy> Donkey718666: Also use that wiki there is a whole bunch of useful information on there.
[18:17] <jimmygoon> How do I compare two directories (recursively) and see what files are different?
[18:17] <erUSUL> !grub | irishdave
[18:18] <ubotu> irishdave: 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
[18:18] <brobostigon> !grub | irishdave
[18:18] <jianfei> anyone got the novell login client working on ubuntu/gutsy?
[18:18] <ejer> irishdave: use livecd, then use install-grub command in CLI
[18:18] <jimmygoon> I need to merge an old backup with my current copy of the data w/o recopying all 20 gig of it becuase that will take an hour
[18:18] <trista1> geekahedron: back in ubuntu
[18:18] <erUSUL> jimmygoon: text files ??
[18:18] <trista1> :)
[18:18] <trista1> finally
[18:18] <morrison666> i
[18:18] <deeptrance> i am looking for a good c/c+/c++ compiler what is a good recommendation?
[18:18] <DRebellion> jimmygoon, try diff
[18:18] <jimmygoon> erUSUL, I don't need to compare the files, just add the new ones - its all my family photots
[18:18] <vbabiy> deeptrance: gcc
[18:18] <S4nt4> Does anyone know how to change gdm resolution when it ignores xorg.conf ?
[18:18] <Lorenz1> ok manged!!
[18:18] <deeptrance> thanks
[18:18] <jimmygoon> deeptrance, gcc - gnu compiler collection
[18:18] <k4k> ok, so now updatedb doesn't work...
[18:18] <IndyGunFreak> !c+ | deeptrance
[18:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about c+ - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:18] <Lorenz1> thanks this community is fantastic!
[18:18] <erUSUL> jimmygoon: maybe with rsync
[18:19] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: I tried that, it says  "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."
[18:19] <k4k> updatedb: fatal error: Unable to create database: /var/lib/slocate/slocate.db
[18:19] <jimmygoon> DRebellion, will try
[18:19] <ejer> S4nt4: try dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg from CLI
[18:19] <natbet> is it possible to install using LVM partitions via the live cd? or will I have to use the alternative cd?
[18:19] <jimmygoon> erUSUL, I wondered if that might work
[18:19] <S4nt4> ejer, I tried that already
[18:19] <S4nt4> ejer, I tried lot of settings
[18:19] <Lorenz1> I hope one day I'll manage to throw away my W|ndowz crap
[18:19] <bmjackal> Hi... I need an advice with NowPlaying screenlet... If I want it to work with Amarok, I have to restart it AFTER I run Amarok, then it shows the names correctly. Is there a way to fix this?
[18:19] <ahorriblemess> I'll keep trying stuff
[18:19] <vbabiy> Lorenz1:  Whats holding you back
[18:19] <prince_jammys> geekahedron: here's a sample line from mine:   kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=3b2d147d-9dc7-4bf1-9105-64c7597403e8 ro quiet splash
[18:20] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, its the authors fault for not including instructions
[18:20] <ejer> S4nt4: next step is to try metamodes, but you should be sure driver is right, check logs for errors etc
[18:20] <joanki> !rq joanki
[18:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rq joanki - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:20] <danbhfive> S4nt4: have you tried this line?          Virtual     1280 1024
[18:20] <joanki> !rq metabol
[18:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rq metabol - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:20] <S4nt4> danbhfive, yes I did
[18:20] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: yeah.. I might just try a different program. thanks for trying to help though
[18:20] <danbhfive> S4nt4: heh, kk
[18:21] <ahorriblemess> gatestone: you too, thank you
[18:21] <S4nt4> ejer, drver is radeon. logs does not say anything because gdm is ok with choosing a bad resolution
[18:21] <Donkey718666> are you able to put on your own program on the OS like Mcafee? Also how can i get Microsoft Office on the computer?
[18:21] <S4nt4> danbhfive, but thx anyway :))
[18:21] <ejer> S4nt4: what rez do you want
[18:21] <NET||abuse> Hey guys, i'm trying to get going with svn here, i've created a local repository, but i'd like to use a good gui tool to use while working on my files, i used a simple tortoisesvn system 2 years back when i was in another job, now i'm working on html documents for project documentation, i wanted to version control them as i'll be in collaboration with 2 others on it. What tools do others use in this manner?
[18:21] <S4nt4> ejer, 1280x1024
[18:22] <gatestone> ahorriblemess, seem like they have support forum at Mokoi Games...
[18:22] <NET||abuse> I've tried esvn and find it sucky,
[18:22] <ejer> S4nt4: can you get it with ati driver?
[18:22] <NET||abuse> i'm looking at wvnworkbench, andhavn't had a great start with it.
[18:22] <ahorriblemess> gatestone: they do, I might have followed the wrong link but there wasn't much on there... or it forwarded me to a list.php
[18:22] <IndyGunFreak> Donkey718666: 1.  in general, Linux does  not need antivirus software, you can run MS Office, but it runs with varing degrees of success.. most people switch to open office.
[18:22] <k4k> anyone know what this means, I get it when I type mount
[18:22] <S4nt4> ejer, isnt radeon the same as ati ?
[18:22] <NET||abuse> what else would people recomend?
[18:22] <sofiankrt> whenever I ./configure I'm getting a configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[18:22] <geekahedron> prince_jammys: i have the same line .. the ubuntu splash loads quietly, there's just a bunch of spam before that (looks as if it's printing out the menu.lst file as it reads it)
[18:22] <k4k> /dev/sda2 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro
[18:22] <ejer> S4nt4: no
[18:22] <S4nt4> ejer I thought it was just an alias
[18:22] <ejer> NET||abuse: maybe http://rapidsvn.tigris.org/
[18:23] <killown>  I have a Nvidia Gefore FX 5500 I would like to disable VSync, how can I dot it?
[18:23] <ejer> S4nt4: ati is free radeon driver
[18:23] <ahorriblemess> gatestone: but I will try again, thanks
[18:23] <DRebellion> sofiankrt, have you installed the package build-essential?
[18:23] <S4nt4> and radeon is proprietary ?
[18:23] <Donkey718666> indy: i have Windows OS at the moment. Is this OS Linux version
[18:23] <Donkey718666> ?
[18:23] <ejer> S4nt4: yes
[18:23] <NET||abuse> ejer, thanks, i think i saw that sometime ago, forgot about it..
[18:23] <prince_jammys> geekahedron: mmm i get a little bit of that too, very short.  i dont know how to suppress that
[18:23] <IndyGunFreak> Donkey718666: yes, Ubuntu is a version of Linux
[18:23] <aoupi> k4k: it means the second partition of the device /dev/sda (/dev/sda2) is mounted on / (your root), it's mounted readwrite and in case of error it should be remounted read only
[18:23] <erUSUL> S4nt4: ati driver will load readeon or r128 repending on the chip the card uses
[18:23] <ejer> NET||abuse: good to learn the CLI anyways tho
[18:23] <sofiankrt> DRebellion: where can I find that? how do I install it?
[18:23] <epswing> i just inserted a "D-Link DFE-550TX FAST Ethernet 10/100 Adapter" into a ubuntu 7.10's PCI, and when i throw an eth cable into it, i get the lights going, but it doesn't show up in ifconfig. any suggestions? am i missing a driver?
[18:23] <S4nt4> ejer, sorry I just checked my xorg.cong it s ati I'm using
[18:23] <Polarina> IndyGunFreak: GNU/Linux, to correct you. :)
[18:23] <DRebellion> sofiankrt, in your terminal, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[18:23] <jimmygoon> erUSUL, rsync works beautifully . thanks!
[18:23] <Donkey718666> So will anything go wrong if i install it on a windows computer?
[18:24] <IndyGunFreak> Polarina: if i need your correciton, i'll ask
[18:24] <ejer> S4nt4: that is prolly problem, use restricted-manager to install radeon
[18:24] <NET||abuse> ejer, well, i'm learning it for running the backend repository anyway
[18:24] <ahmad> i use kaffeine to watch my dvb and it is work fine < my problem is that < i want to scan Channel for other sat < so each time i change the sat i need to delete the old sat channel
[18:24] <aoupi> k4k: you can see 'man mount' for more mount options
[18:24] <erUSUL> jimmygoon: no problem
[18:24] <sofiankrt> DRebellion: when I'm in the source directory?
[18:24] <ejer> NET||abuse: you have no choice, it is integrated
[18:24] <DRebellion> Donkey718666, you don't seem to understand the nature of an operating system.
[18:24] <geekahedron> prince_jammys: okay, thanks. maybe there's something i can do in neogrub to prevent it
[18:24] <IndyGunFreak> Donkey718666: provided you setup your system properly, you can install Linux beside windows w/o issue.
[18:24] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: ah, what about a terminal response to "sudo make install Alchera" that says, "No rule to make target 'install'. Stop.
[18:24] <genius> can anyone help me to test OpenVPN?
[18:24] <DRebellion> sofiankrt, anywhere#
[18:24] <k4k> aoupi: ok, so I can't write anything to /var which is part of /, does that mean I have to reboot?
[18:24] <NET||abuse> ejer, no choice?
[18:24] <S4nt4> ejer, I used to use radeon, but 3D didnt work
[18:24] <sofiankrt> DRebellion: ok, great! thanks!
[18:24] <ahmad> so is there any way to scan for one time  many sat
[18:24] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: doesn't that imply that I should create a target directory?
[18:24] <ejer> NET||abuse: svn comes with ccli tools
[18:25] <gatestone> ahorriblemess, I am trying Mokoi, downloading now
[18:25] <Donkey718666> well i understand i just dont want to unistall this one and not be able to have all my drivers installed on the new one
[18:25] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, erm, where did you get a Makefile from?
[18:25] <S4nt4> ejer, and beside gdm, ati is working 3D effects a lot better
[18:25] <ejer> S4nt4: well, that is another problem :)
[18:25] <erUSUL> ahorriblemess: install is not a target of the makefile
[18:25] <ahorriblemess> gatestone: ok awesome, thanks
[18:25] <S4nt4> ejer, true..
[18:25] <IndyGunFreak> Donkey718666: type this w/o quotes.. "/join #indygunfreak"
[18:25] <ejer> S4nt4: is your card supported?
[18:25] <aoupi> k4k: no, I think that is not related
[18:25] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: http://mokoi.sourceforge.net/
[18:25] <S4nt4> ejer, on feisty I had no problems using ati though...
[18:25] <NET||abuse> ejer, oh this i know ;) i've created 3 repositories already, just for some different projects,, but want to find a decent way to visually manage it also
[18:25] <ahorriblemess> oh wait
[18:25] <S4nt4> ejer, yes radeon 9500 pro
[18:25] <aoupi> k4k: if your root partition had been remounted readonly you'd have noticed it
[18:25] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, different program?
[18:25] <S4nt4> ejer and beside gdm everything is fine !!
[18:25] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: no, sorry, I'm just typing "make install" for whatever I think
[18:26] <k4k> aoupi: I think I did, my computer locked up for about 3 minutes with a lot of hard drive activity
[18:26] <k4k> I just didn't know what to make of it
[18:26] <genius> Please, help me test OpenVPN connection, i will give all configs and it will take 5 minutes of your time...
[18:26] <aoupi> k4k: only root can write to /var
[18:26] <ejer> S4nt4: u r saying that when you log in, rez changes to be right?
[18:26] <ahmad>  i use kaffeine to watch my dvb and it is work fine < my problem is that < i want to scan Channel for other sat < so each time i change the sat i need to delete the old sat channel
[18:26] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: Alchera is in the MokoiGaming folder
[18:26] <k4k> aoupi: I'm root when I try to do things
[18:26] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: I'm just trying things out
[18:26] <S4nt4> ejer, yes ! and 3D is perfect
[18:26] <aoupi> k4k: if your root had been remounted readonly you wouldn't be able to write anywhere
[18:26] <S4nt4> ejer, the compiz cube is smooth and so on...
[18:26] <geekahedron> i do not see my soundcard/chipset listed at alsa, is there a better way to get my sound working?
[18:26] <aoupi> k4k: (except on separate mountpoints of course)
[18:26] <pablo889> i have not broadband, but why have i got broadband with a few pages?
[18:26] <NET||abuse> ejer, thanks for that, rapidsvn already easier to work with :)
[18:26] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, 0.o i'll take a look at this...
[18:27] <k4k> aoupi: ok that answer my question, I'll reboot to see if that fixes it
[18:27] <aoupi> k4k: if your drive made weird noices you should probably run fsck on it
[18:27] <norml_advocate> does anyone know where to get cool login window schemes?

[18:27] <codicealpha> hi to everybody
[18:27] <ejer> k4k: if your drive is making noise, back it up first, then do stuff
[18:28] <k4k> ejer: there's nothing important on it
[18:28] <k4k> ejer: but thanks
[18:28] <ejer> means it will die soon prolly

[18:31] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: I might just try different software and forget about this whole Mokoi fiasco
[18:31] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, cd to the directory, type ./Alchera
[18:31] <kostkon> kwajstabo, you need to install libreadline5-dev and not libreadline5 to compile octave

[18:32] <ahorriblemess> DRebellion: it brought up a window to create (I'm assuming a game), but it crashed, "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"
[18:32] <DRebellion> ahorriblemess, that's a problem in the source code. Seriously, just forget this crap.
[18:33] <kwajstabo> kostkon: will try that, thank you

[18:35] <unenough> thanks.
[18:35] <geekahedron> mon^rch: if you're looking at a plain image in the browser, it's up to the browser to resize it to fit .. if it's an html page that contains an image, it generally won't change its size unless you force it with javascript (which imo is pretty messy)
[18:36] <mon^rch> geekahedron: so I need to js my page to force the images to autofit? can you perhaps provide a sample?

[18:39] <Mardoxx> but does debian auto configure everything? (because im sick of gentoo now lol)
[18:39] <ejer> Raizard: yep, alsa is usually ok
[18:40] <Raizard> ok good

[18:44] <ConstyXIV> luisa: i meant before it boots: i'm installing the livecd in a library, and don't want to PO people
[18:44] <makkan> anyone using *buntu on older hardware <300MHz and willing to give some speedup tips?

[18:45] <mon^rch> geekahedron: here's my gallery----> http://gardenofeden.dyndns.org/galleries/wallpaper/index.html (see what I mean)? if I choose "view image" it autosizes. Page was created with igal. Additional ideas to get the image to autofit (initially) much appreciated.

[18:45] <makkan> kostkon: Already have...
[18:45] <VvWolverinevV> can anyonetell me how to edit the alsa sound mixing permissions?
[18:45] <IndyGunFreak> alumno04: open a terminal and type "lspci" w/o quotes, and tell me how it identifies your sound device
[18:46] <kostkon> makkan, oh, I see. ok.
[18:46] <^CatMan^> ejer: Device Manager says : NV5M64 [RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro]
[18:46] <makkan> ejer: Will I gain much from fluxbox compared to XFCE?
[18:46] <ConstyXIV> makkan: or if you don't mind getting your hands dirty, use a bare Debian or the ubuntu jeos disc

[18:46] <Docfxit> I'm running x11vnc. I followed the instructions to install autocutsel. I made it so it's supposed to start on reboot. It's not working How can I see if it's running?
[18:47] <alumno04> IndyGunFreak: Do i use the tty1 terminal so i can use the local root, or just in a X terminal?
[18:47] <S4nt4> ejer, none of the solutions given on the forum makes a difference...
[18:47] <mengedej>  im running filezilla (synaptic version 3.0.0-ubuntu1), and filezilla ignores the automatic file type classification and consequently picks the wrong tranfer type for many files. I have no idea if this is a problem with my configuration or not? the same thing(?) happens with nautilus..
[18:47] <IndyGunFreak> alumno04: just in an x-terminal is fine
[18:47] <Itaku> how do i login to an afp server off of ubuntu?
[18:47] <alumno04> ok

[18:48] <IndyGunFreak> alumno04: oh ok..
[18:48] <sbrandollo> sorry
[18:48] <alumno04> but if i do this in tty1 i get the client device
[18:48] <sbrandollo> :D
[18:48] <ejer> S4nt4: try taking out any configs done inside ubuntu, then drop to CLI and use dpkg-reconfigure
[18:48] <S4nt4> ejer, i just did it
[18:48] <enzo> i have firefox launched, and i'd like to relaunch it with a script, how can i do that ? i can send a kill signal, but ps uax |grep firefox gives 3 pid
[18:48] <alumno04> which do you need?
[18:48] <enzo> do you know if firefox stores the pid somewhere ?
[18:48] <ejer> S4nt4: if so, rez will not change when you login
[18:48] <S4nt4> ejer wait, what do you mean config down inside ubuntu ?
[18:48] <tux_> my new installed ubuntu only downloading in 250-300kb/s when updating from the local server my other box updates in like 1000-1400.. ??
[18:48] <mon^rch> geekahedron: because if anyone using a small screen res. the image is "cut off" and you cant see the whole image unless you "r-click + view image"... I want the pic to be scaled to the browser window initially. :/

[18:49] <fossilcat> i tried geexbox but it crashed. As soon as any movie is started the screen is just flickered. I use intel 845GVGL mobo. is it driver prob ?

[18:49] <S4nt4> ejer, how do I take those conf out ?
[18:49] <Itaku> how do i login to an afp server off of ubuntu?
[18:50] <mon^rch> ejer: that's what I thought... look at my gallery and you will see what I mean http://gardenofeden.dyndns.org/galleries/wallpaper/index.html
[18:50] <ConstyXIV> Itaku: afp?
[18:50] <geekahedron> mon^rch: the way yours is set up now is what i would expect, a page of thumbnails and then a full-size image when i click on it
[18:50] <Itaku> yes..
[18:50] <ConstyXIV> Itaku: what's afp?
[18:50] <S4nt4> ejer, you mean selecting a low resolution ?
[18:50] <ejer> mon^rch: looks fine to me, you may want to look into lightbox javascript
[18:50] <mon^rch> geekahedron: um, thanks
[18:50] <Itaku> ... i dont know i just need to connect to one
[18:50] <geekahedron> mon^rch: the easy alternative is to have the thumbnails link to images instead of a webpage
[18:50] <Itaku> its the kind of servers Mac's connect to when you go to "Connect to server"

[18:55] <geekahedron> jabez: what is the other OS? vista i assume?
[18:55] <ejer> mon^rch: http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/ is what you want
[18:55] <mon^rch> ejer: and I'm not selling them, so
[18:55] <jabez> is vista
[18:55] <ejer> mon^rch: ok, just a comment... and you don't have to sell them of course to contravene copyright
[18:56] <geekahedron> jabez: the easiest way is to free space using the vista partitioner, then install ubuntu to the unallocated space
[18:56] <DRebellion> Itaku, wikipedia says netatalk, afpfs-ng or jaffer
[18:56] <Itaku> its the kind of servers Mac's connect to when you go to "Connect to server"
[18:56] <ejer> S4nt4: its a tough one, I would manually drop to CLI, move the xorg.conf file, amke sure X won't start then dpkg-reconfigure

[18:56] <mon^rch> ejer: ty for the link... I will check it out
[18:57] <Jouva> aspire: If you're using the GUI it SHOULD just work when you pop it in.
[18:57] <jabez> i did geekahedron, but after that it becomes unbootable for both, vista and ubuntu
[18:57] <Kase1> apache2.conf is loading php5.conf
[18:57] <S4nt4> ejer, ok I'll try to kill every X processes...
[18:58] <ejer> S4nt4: ctrl-alt-f1, then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[18:58] <ejer> then do your reconfigure
[18:58] <aspire> Jouva: it brings up a message can not mount
[18:58] <gatestone> ConstyXIV, to disable sound on the live CD, did you try passing the kernel a paranmeter like ALSA=off or similar...
[18:58] <geekahedron> jabez: you did the "Guided - Use the largest continuous free space" during the ubuntu install?
[18:58] <Jouva> aspire: And the CD loads fine in windows?
[18:58] <aspire> yes it does
[18:59] <aspire> it says invalid mount point
[18:59] <Jouva> Do other CDs load for you on the ubuntu pc?
[18:59] <Jouva> Oh!

[18:59] <ejer> mon^rch: yep and so do many many others
[18:59] <Jouva> Did it tell you where? You probably need to recreate a directory or something

[19:08] <Jouva> _Casey_: I'm not sure if there is one because it doesn't look like win4lin is an open source product and this network is more geared towards open source projects

[19:08] <Jouva> looking
[19:08] <_Casey_> I would like to put Win4Lin in fullscreen mode.

[19:21] <_Casey_> installing virtualbox now
[19:22] <ejer> genius: maybe helps http://www.thebakershome.net/?q=node/56
[19:22] <aspire> Jouva: are you suggesting that there is something wrong with the disk?
[19:22] <wild_oscar> ejer: it's more specific
[19:22] <Jouva> aspire: Nope. Just looking around for answers.
[19:22] <Jouva> aspire: First let's try one of two mounts with the -t
[19:23] <Docfxit> I'm using UltraVNC from XP to connect to X11VNC with autocutsel running. When I copy text I can't get it to paste in XP.
[19:23] <aspire> maybe if I use an option to set it to mount under a different file system
[19:23] <aspire> I have tried iso
[19:23] <aspire> but does not work
[19:23] <genius> ejer, my problem is real problem :) two support companies said that they dno't know what to do
[19:23] <Jouva> aspire: sudo mount -t udf /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0
[19:24] <Docfxit> Disable clipboard transfer is not checked.
[19:24] <aspire> no medium found
[19:24] <genius> ejer, i want to ensure that it could work on linux at all
[19:24] <_Casey_> ok how do i use virtualbox
[19:24] <ejer> genius: i don't doubt it is a problem, but openvpn works, I use it
[19:24] <Jouva> aspire: sudo mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0
[19:24] <gary_> Evening..
[19:24] <aspire> could it be that /dev is incorrect?
[19:24] <Jouva> wait no medium found? is the disk still in there? ;)
[19:24] <sandos_> very quick question: how do I find a SMP kernel?? Suddenly my machine is non-SMP
[19:24] <sandos_> cant find any -smp packages...
[19:24] <Jouva> MAYBE but if it WAS then nothing would load cause your fstab file would be wrong
[19:25] <fus10n_xx> Are there any motherboards or video cards that are support in ubuntu for both video+sound?
[19:25] <aspire> Jouva: no medium found

[19:25] <gary_> Does anyone know the sftp username and password for a Windows Mobile phone?
[19:25] <kostkon> sandos_, the generic kernel is smp, the i386 not, i think
[19:25] <Jouva> aspire: Is there a disk in there? ;)
[19:25] <wild_oscar> ejer: then click print preview
[19:25] <genius> ejer, do you have 5 minutes to test connection to vpn provider? I think, it is configured to work with windows and never tested with linux
[19:25] <sandos_> kostkon: hmm, just installed generic, previous was 386
[19:25] <sandos_> non of them gives me 2 cores :(
[19:25] <AtomicSpark> Does installing Compiz + xserver-xgl disable Direct Rendering? I just did a test and says no. I have the restricted driver installed.
[19:25] <sandos_> oh sorry
[19:25] <sandos_> generic does, apparently
[19:25] <ejer> not really genius sorry, but that is something for provider usually
[19:25] <alumno04> i compiled with make, it seems all ok, but when i do "make install" it says that theres not rules to build ... stop
[19:26] <kostkon> sandos_, so, you are OK then?
[19:26] <Jouva> aspire: No medium found sounds like you took out the other one and forgot to pop the one you're trying to load back in
[19:26] <sandos_> didn two core used to give 2 "cpus" in /proc/cpuinfo ?
[19:26] <sandos_> kostkon: yes.. =)
[19:26] <sandos_> kostkon: now I "just" need to fix my Nvidia driver ;)
[19:26] <kostkon> sandos_, what do you mean by that?
[19:26] <aspire> Jouva: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0,
[19:26] <X-CnupT> hello. In rhythmbox sound in mp3 files very badly, but totem player play mp3 correctly.  Where problem?
[19:26] <aspire> for both the file systems
[19:26] <sandos_> ah, no, sorry, generic gives this, too: WARNING: NR_CPUS limit of 1 reached.  Processor ignored.
[19:26] <sandos_> argh
[19:26] <ejer> wild_oscar: 1 is an odd number? hehe
[19:26] <Jouva> aspire: Interesting. What program did you use to burn it?
[19:27] <sandos_> kostkon: well my GLX was not working
[19:27] <wild_oscar> ejer: precisely
[19:27] <aspire> used windows buring tool
[19:27] <adfw> if I wanted to add something to the 'Applications' menu for all users, how would I do that?
[19:27] <Jouva> Hmmm I dunno what Vista burns with
[19:27] <Jouva> Is this a CD-R or CD-RW?
[19:27] <wild_oscar> ejer: but the print preview shows an odd error, instead of pinpointing the mistake
[19:27] <ejer> wild_oscar: so you are asking it to do something impossible
[19:27] <sandos_> I was on a non-packaged nvidia driver previously, because the one in ubuntu did not work with my particular geforce. I will try the ubuntu bundled one now, it should have been updated to something that works.. I hope
[19:27] <kostkon> sandos_, generic should recognize the two cores, so there's a problem somewhere. nevertheless, how did you install the nvidia driver?
[19:27] <ejer> wild_oscar: I would think this would be an evince bug
[19:28] <aspire> Jouva: CD-R
[19:28] <sandos_> kostkon: it was the downloadable shell thing from Nvidia
[19:28] <wild_oscar> ejer: yes, but the error message doesn't help at all
[19:28] <sandos_> thing is, I cant compile the current one, complained about symbol mismatches.
[19:28] <ejer> wild_oscar: so include that in your bug report
[19:28] <Jouva> aspire: Ok. I know CD-RWs can sometimes apparently be a pain in some cases ;) I'm trying to see if there's anything in the forums or elsewhere about it.
[19:28] <_Casey_> so how do i uninstall win4lin + the XP emu i made
[19:28] <sandos_> hence why I started playing around with my kernel headers etc
[19:28] <sandos_> and noticed I was not on a SMP kernel anymore
[19:28] <norml_advocate> ejer is easy tag in amarok?
[19:29] <ejer> norml_advocate: no it is anotehr program
[19:29] <alumno04> i compiled with make, it seems all ok, but when i do "make install" it says that theres not rules to build ... stop
[19:29] <_Casey_> Anyone?
[19:29] <cdm10> I'd like to revoke a signature I've made on someone's public key. I did gpg --edit-key <ID> and then used the command "revsig", and it went through the process of generating a revocation certificate. Then I used the "save" command. However, it doesn't seem to have done anything.
[19:29] <alumno04> what can id o?
[19:29] <kostkon> sandos_, oh, ok. since it seems you want to use the latest version of the driver (and not the older in the repos) then you it would be better to use Envy.
[19:29] <genius> ejer, I've tryed two providers. the same. They use TCP, and when for example i ping with packet more, then 7kb - it just freezes
[19:29] <sandos_> kostkon: is that the fancy nvidia installer thing?
[19:29] <ejer> genius: i would google the error messages
[19:30] <Leechzilla> I get "init_nvclock() failed!" when try using smartdimmer. Is there a way to fix this?
[19:30] <kostkon> sandos_, yes, it will download the driver from nvidia and install it for you
[19:30] <genius> ejer, I really don't know what to do. to change distro, reinstall or it can't even work
[19:30] <sandos_> kostkon: I will try that

[19:30] <cMad> could anyone help me with Virtual Box please, I'm getting the error "FATAL: No bootable medium found! System halted."
[19:30] <kostkon> sandos_, but remember, everytime time there's an kernel update you will lose your desktop
[19:30] <genius> ejer, there is no error messages. I've googled one issue...
[19:30] <ejer> Jouva: no, you would have to issue mount command
[19:30] <sandos_> kostkon: aaah, right
[19:30] <_Casey_> hey kit
[19:30] <_Casey_> ive played all of those :P
[19:31] <Jouva> ejer: Well I mean I don't have to run any program to "reload" the fstab if said volume is not mounted though, right?
[19:31] <fdsajkl> I get a segmentation fault when trying to install ies4linux. Any suggestions?
[19:31] <_Casey_> do i get a cookie
[19:31] <ejer> Jouva: well until you need the info from fstab it is not used
[19:31] <sandos_> Kitar|st: theyre all 3d! bleuh ;)
[19:31] <genius> ejer, i can pay $ for help.
[19:31] <sandos_> go 2d games ;)
[19:31] <kostkon> sandos_, if you want to avoid this you should install the driver from the repos. or before you reboot the pc after the kernel update you have to change the driver in xorg.conf from nvidia to nv or vesa and then put it back
[19:31] <Jouva> ejer: Ok. Thanks :)
[19:31] <sandos_> been playing around with Phun lately
[19:32] <sandos_> kostkon: I will try the ubuntu one I think
[19:32] <_Casey_> yeah i cant uninstall win4lin :/
[19:32] <Kitar|st> sandos_ i like 2d games

[19:32] <Jouva> aspire: Try editing your /etc/fstab file and changing the "udf,iso9660" part to just say "auto"
[19:32] <kostkon> sandos_, yes, the driver from the repos is "kernel update safe" :) although, it's an not the latest version
[19:33] <cMad> !virtualbox | cMad
[19:33] <Jouva> aspire: And yes, I know there's a "noauto" option there, don't touch that; I don't believe they're the same thing.
[19:33] <mshooshtari> Thanks > MasterShrek
[19:33] <AtomicSpark> sandos_: i was reading about that wine thing for games, and saw that my Direct Rendering = no. Lame? Maybe. I have the restricted driver enabled and compiz works fine for me.

[19:35] <aspire> Jouva: trying to unmount it but that is not possible
[19:35] <IndyGunFreak> ejer: lol
[19:35] <AtomicSpark> i do find it funny that ubotu doesnt know anything about kvm when they're integrating it into ubuntu. :P
[19:35] <sandos_> ah ok
[19:36] <sandos_> so can anybody with a AMD X2 check their specific kernel package on 7.04 ?
[19:36] <aspire> Jouva:  this is according to mtab
[19:36] <fus10n_xx> What would be a better choice for Ubuntu? ATI or NVIDIA?
[19:36] <sandos_> I just cannot find a package that will enable my second core... :(
[19:36]  * AtomicSpark hides from fanboy war
[19:36] <Jouva> aspire: Buh?? What's going on?
[19:36] <fus10n_xx> heh

[19:36] <fus10n_xx> i jus want the most compatibility and features
[19:37] <fus10n_xx> root/dottie :)
[19:37] <mshooshtari> Ive had a problem just after the last kernel update, my USB peripherals stopped working.
[19:37] <gary_> fus10n_xx: No kidding? :p
[19:37] <sandos_> ok, it seems generic "is the one"
[19:37] <danand__> sandos_ - you may need to recompile your kernel to enable smp support
[19:37] <luisa> Aahhh *wonders why OpenOffice Writer is set up to open PNG files :)
[19:37] <sandos_> danand__: are you f***ing kidding me ;)
[19:37] <Cpudan80> So anyone know anything about my problem? Embedded quicktime files in firefox = no go?
[19:37] <erUSUL> sandos_: the generic kernel does support smp
[19:37] <fus10n_xx> gary_: I was kiddin. thats for the iphone :)
[19:37] <sandos_> erUSUL: yeah, I notived that just now
[19:37] <SpacePilot> How do I configure xterm under Ubuntu 7.10? Been testing a lot of guides, but no on seem to work?
[19:37] <sandos_> still, it does not work for me :(
[19:37] <Jouva> BTW speaking of VirtualBox and all, can anybody suggest a program other than Wine to run JUST a specific Windows program under Ubuntu? I don't need a full Windows shell/environment, just the ability to run a specific executable.
[19:38] <sandos_> aha, I need to uninstall the 386 kernel most likely =)
[19:38] <AtomicSpark> lols. xterm, startx, x11, xserver. never know what people actually mean.
[19:38] <sandos_> ah yes
[19:38] <IndyGunFreak> Jouva: well there's virtualbox, vmware, qemu
[19:38] <danand__> sandos - :D .... either that or look for a kernel with smp in its name that suits your needs
[19:38] <Jonty> I'm trying to get jackd working low-latency using realtime-lsm, but I just can't get it working. Is there a guide somewhere or better way of doing it?

[19:39] <kostkon> sandos_, do you know that you have booted with the generic kernel for sure? or i386 is still used. do a "uname -a" to be sure
[19:39] <docmur> The program bittorrent does it support encrpytion

[19:39] <Jouva> IndyGunFreak: No, No, and No :) Those emulate a full Operating System. I just need the application.
[19:39] <kostkon> sandos_, bah!
[19:39] <AtomicSpark> Jouva: ignore the kqemu.. it's KVM now.
[19:39] <sandos_> will check grub and reboot soon
[19:39] <erUSUL> bullgard4: dpkg -S /var/log/udev
[19:39] <sandos_> I really dont like that ubuntu doesnt set the newly installed kernel as default or something
[19:39] <erUSUL> Jouva: wine
[19:39] <IndyGunFreak> Jouva: well, then the only other thing than Wine, that I know of, is not free, is Crossover Office
[19:40] <IndyGunFreak> erUSUL: he said other than wine
[19:40] <Jouva> erUSUL: My original qualifier included !wine :)
[19:40] <DRebellion> CrazyPhil_, i would recommend nmap. install it from the repos. then,  sudo nmap -v -v -sP <IP_ADDRESS>-254 (change the ip for your network)
[19:40] <erUSUL> Jouva: the other two crossover and cedega are wine forks so they are only marginally better if any and semi-closed source
[19:40] <CrazyPhil_> ok, I'll look for that thx
[19:40] <Jouva> Ahhh, suck.
[19:41] <bartmon> Hi! Can someone tell me how to restart fuse via bash? I forgot where the control script is
[19:41] <Jouva> Well Cedega is "claiming" to let you play games easily blah blah blah
[19:41] <bruenig> fuse? the kernel module?
[19:41] <erUSUL> Jouva: go ahead and buy it ;)
[19:41] <Jouva> bartmon: You mean /etc/init.d/ ?
[19:41] <AlexE2> I need help, bad.
[19:42] <Leechzilla> Before I compile something from source, should I uninstall the one from the repositories first, or will it just update it?
[19:42] <bartmon> bruenig: the userspace driver for filesystems
[19:42] <aspire> Jouva: is there any chance that I will be able to get through to this CD?
[19:42] <bartmon> Jouva: oh :9
[19:42] <punQ-arT> hey i upgraded my ubuntu gusty to hardy but my b43 driver didn't work:(
[19:42] <DRebellion> Leechzilla, why would you want to compile from source when there's a package in the repos?
[19:42] <root-----> Hi, i have a server and 30 clients. (10 windows 20 linux.) i want to pxe boot them all. making linux as my server. 2. i want to make a user account (in all those 30 machines) stop or screen lock after every 30 minuts (runing apps should not be closed) the user just have to enter password again. 3.for every such event of unlocking screen and giving pwd.(i 'guess' thats logging in?) i get stats on server.. possible? do i need any thing else. like ldap ? a
[19:42] <bruenig> bartmon: the kernel module sounds like
[19:42] <bruenig> bartmon: rmmod fuse; modprobe fuse
[19:42] <DRebellion> punQ-arT, /join #hardy+1
[19:42] <AlexE2> I partitioned my drive and began to install a windows crack on the new partition, but it asks me for a key.  I have the key on my ubuntu partition, but I don't know how to get to it!  Right now I'm running off the live cd.
[19:42] <DRebellion> punQ-arT, /join #ubuntu+1
[19:42] <root-----> 3.for every such event of unlocking screen and giving pwd.(i 'guess' thats logging in?) i get stats on server.. possible? do i need any thing else. like ldap ? any suggestions?I
[19:42] <aman> can anyone tell me how can i login remotely in ubuntu using putty
[19:42] <Leechzilla> DRebellion, because it doesn't work
[19:43] <erUSUL> AlexE2: use a liveCD
[19:43] <AlexE2> erUSUL, I am, but I don't know how to get to the tomboy note that the key is saved on.
[19:43] <DRebellion> Leechzilla, we need more information than "doesn't work"
[19:43] <Jouva> aspire: You said you couldn't unmount it??
[19:43] <AlexE2> erUSUL, When I open tomboy notes, its not there
[19:43] <Leechzilla> DRebellion, I type smartdimmer -g and it says init_nvclock() failed
[19:44] <aspire> Jouva:  and I cant, nor can I mount it
[19:44] <bartmon> bruenig: Thanks. I umounted the FSs which use fuse but the module is still in use and i can't rmmod it. Got any ideas?
[19:45] <DRebellion> Leechzilla, i seriously doubt building from source will help you. it will probably cause even more headaches.
[19:45] <Jouva> This amuses me for some reason: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56777/
[19:45] <aman> can anyone tell me how can i login remotely in ubuntu using putty????
[19:45] <docmur> The program bittorrent does it support encrpytion
[19:45] <DVDmannen> Hi there! Why can't I rip a dvd-movie? (Make an .iso)
[19:45] <DRebellion> aman, install openssh-server on ubuntu
[19:45] <AlexE2> I can't access my ubuntu partition, can someone help?
[19:45]  * root----- waits for suggestiosn
[19:45] <bullgard4> DRebellion: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/42664/ This does not answer the question which I put. I asked in general. I did not ask what programs are useing this file at the moment.
[19:45] <Leechzilla> DRebellion: It says on launchpad that it does. So should I remove the one from the repo or not?
[19:45] <AtomicSpark> DVDmannen: because that's illegal
[19:45] <AlexE2> How do I access a tomboy note off the liveCD?
[19:45] <bartmon> aman: install , configure and run sshd on ubuntu locally first
[19:45] <DRebellion> docmur, 1) bittorrent is a protocol 2) a good client will support encryption
[19:45] <katakaio> docmur: No, you'll need a torrent client like Azureus or Deluge
[19:46] <DVDmannen> AtomicSpark, ok.
[19:46] <docmur> I know I'm talking about the client bit torrnet
[19:46] <katakaio> Ha, you beat me to it DRebellion
[19:46] <docmur> are either of those text based
[19:46] <docmur> I need it for my server
[19:46] <DRebellion> Leechzilla, fair enough. remove the one from the repo before building from source
[19:46] <aman> DRebellion: on which machine ? mine?
[19:46] <DVDmannen> AtomicSpark, Do you know where I can look for a guide that will help me to do that?
[19:47] <katakaio> docmur: No, I believe they are both graphical
[19:47] <aman> DRebellion: actually i want my friend to logon to my computer
[19:47] <DRebellion> aman, hang on. do you want to login to your ubuntu machine or from your ubuntu machine?
[19:47] <Jouva> aspire: So the CD is stuck in there right now? Paste the /etc/fstab again onto the paste site
[19:47] <brobostigon> trnsmission is a good bittorrent client aswell
[19:47] <DRebellion> aman, okay. install openssh-server on your ubuntu machine
[19:47] <ali_> sa avait coupé
[19:47] <aman> DRebellion: ok
[19:47] <aspire> Jouva: never mind
[19:47] <DRebellion> !fr | ali_
[19:47] <ubotu> ali_: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[19:47] <ali_> j'essaie d'utiliser wifi radar
[19:47] <Leechzilla> DRebellion: It says it'll remove acpi-support, powermanagement-interface, ubuntu-desktop. Can't I compile it without removing the installed package?
[19:47] <ali_> sa a l'air mieu
[19:47] <Jouva> aspire: What now? :)
[19:47] <aspire> OK
[19:48] <Pici> !fr | ali_
[19:48] <ubotu> ali_: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[19:48] <ali_> sorry
[19:48] <DRebellion> Leechzilla, you can, but they may conflict. I don't know. But you really don't want to remove those abovementioned packages.
[19:48] <norml_advocat1> is there a way to install software that is made for windows ?
[19:48] <_Casey_> norm
[19:48] <_Casey_> try wine
[19:48] <_Casey_> WINE
[19:48] <_Casey_> or virtualbox
[19:48] <AtomicSpark> DVDmannen: I googled and found this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#How_to_rip_a_DVD_video try installing/using that program.
[19:48] <DRebellion> !virtualisers | norml_advocat1
[19:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about virtualisers - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:48] <DRebellion> !virtualisation | norml_advocat1
[19:48] <ubotu> norml_advocat1: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[19:48] <_Casey_> !QEmu
[19:49] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[19:49] <norml_advocat1> !wine
[19:49] <aspire> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56778/
[19:49] <ubotu> WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[19:49] <DVDmannen> AtomicSpark, I will do that, thank you very much for you kind help.
[19:49] <WARRIOR> hello friends
[19:49] <aspire> Jouva: is that right?
[19:49] <Jouva> aman: Also make sure that if you are behind a firewall/router and that your friend is not on your local network that your friend can connect to port 22 on your computer
[19:49] <dho_ragus> ubuntu-specific networking question here.....
[19:49] <dho_ragus> i'm running ubuntu 7 in a VM.  i copied it, now the network won't come up.
[19:49] <AtomicSpark> norml_advocat1: use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM
[19:49] <Jouva> aspire: Oh! No no you heard the opposite of what I wanted :) I'm sorry :)
[19:50] <aman> Jouva: he is not on LAN
[19:50] <dho_ragus> fixes tell me to edit the persistent-rules file in /etc/udev/rules.d, except that file doesn't exist.
[19:50] <bruenig> dho_ragus: what happens when you try to get it up using the command line
[19:50] <WARRIOR> somebody can explain to me how can i intall the prozilla 2.0.4?
[19:50] <AtomicSpark> norml_advocat1: it will be fully integrated in the next release of ubuntu.
[19:50] <tekhedz> how can I tell grep to search a manual for an option: e.g. man ssh | grep -x
[19:50] <dho_ragus> bruenig: device not found
[19:50] <bullgard4> erUSUL: "detlef@MD97600:~$ LANG=C dpkg -S /var/log/udev; dpkg: /var/log/udev not found."
[19:50] <dho_ragus> bruenig: if i restart networking, same thing.
[19:50] <Jouva> aspire: The last line should say /dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0   auto user,noauto,exec 0       0
[19:50] <aspire> Jouva:  what do you mean?
[19:50] <tekhedz> i've tried man ssh | grep '-x' even double quotes
[19:51] <tekhedz> it seems the dash bothers grep
[19:51] <aspire> Jouva: does it mater whether it executes auto or not
[19:51] <Jouva> aspire: You removed the "noauto" and didn't add the "auto". I was saying change those two to "auto" but don't touch the "noauto"
[19:51] <erUSUL> bullgard4: :| then dunno
[19:52] <aspire> Jouva: OK it is added
[19:52] <Jouva> aspire: noauto I believe in this case means don't automatically mount (GNOME has other programs working in the background that handle that). So you want THAT in there. The auto I mentioned is FS detection
[19:52] <dho_ragus> tekhedz: man ssh | grep "\-x"
[19:52] <Jouva> aspire: Now try the mount
[19:52] <tekhedz> dho_ragus: thank you very much
[19:52] <EADG> tekhedz: You want to use Amorak to acces a remote music dir via ssh?
[19:53] <dho_ragus> tekhedz: grep -C# for context, very handy for man stuff.
[19:53] <aspire> Same problem, and starts spinning very hard
[19:53] <dho_ragus> tekhedz: or just -A# for stuff after it.
[19:53] <Jouva> aspire: BTW next time you're pasting a config file, use cat and not nano, cause otherwise the ends of lines get cut off and replaced with $ :)
[19:53] <tekhedz> EADG: no, but thanks
[19:53] <MrRoland> Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG , will ybuntu see it on install ?
[19:53] <dho_ragus> tekhedz: eg: man ssh | grep -A5 "\-D"
[19:53] <aspire> using pico
[19:54] <Jouva> nano, pico, same idea :)
[19:54] <niknik> How do I install physics FS?
[19:54] <EADG> tekhedz: sorry, wrong person..
[19:54] <aspire> Jouva: OK
[19:54] <Jouva> nano's a pico clone anyways
[19:54] <dho_ragus> so, how do i get ubuntu to regenerate the udev rules?
[19:54] <tekhedz> dho_ragus: so the # = number of lines after search expressuon right?
[19:54] <patogen> What memory demanding software exists for linux?
[19:55] <dho_ragus> tekhedz: yeah, # is the number of lines to show.
[19:55] <dho_ragus> tekhedz: -A is after, -B is before, -C is context (before and after)
[19:56] <tekhedz> dho_ragus: ooOOoo very neat, I owe you an internet for this one
[19:56] <dho_ragus> patogen: java?
[19:56] <brobostigon> patogen: openoffice, kde, gnome,flash
[19:56] <bartmon> Hey, how can I mount filesystems with fuse with a non-root user?
[19:56] <patogen> dho_ragus: I'm allergic to java.
[19:56] <aoupi> tekhedz: you know you can use / to seacrh in man right?
[19:56] <tekhedz> aoupi: yes, but this is quicker
[19:56] <Jouva> aspire: So it still says something about the bad superblock ?
[19:56] <SpacePilot> Can anyone just tell me how to configure xterm? Where should I put the Xdefault file? Is there any other file? Been reading my eyes red on the forums, and nothing works.
[19:56] <aspire> yes Jouva, still the same error
[19:56] <tekhedz> aoupi: /searchexpression then ender and n for text or N for back
[19:57] <tekhedz> next*
[19:57] <patogen> brobostigon: None of them are *that* demanding. I wanna try to see what happens when I fill up my ram ... right now I'm using ~300MB of 2000MB.
[19:57] <aoupi> tekhedz: indeed it is. oh and -- usualy means "don't look for more arguments", soo grep -C# -- -x would work
[19:57] <brobostigon> patogen: write a python script that writes loads to memory??
[19:57] <patogen> brobostigon: I don't know python.
[19:57] <tekhedz> aoupi: indeed it does, thanks as well
[19:58] <aspire> he does any one know about some sophisticated buring tool for linux that would allow me to see the contents of this disk?
[19:58] <tekhedz> aoupi: two dashes is easier to remember and type
[19:58] <bartmon> Hey, how can I mount filesystems with fuse with a non-root user?
[19:58] <aoupi> bartmon: put them in the fuse group
[19:58] <mundungus> bartmon
[19:58] <brobostigon> patogen: make a ram disk, and then fill it with big empty files
[19:58] <mundungus> dyu now the root pwd?u can sudo
[19:59] <_Casey_> sudo passwd ;x
[19:59] <erUSUL> SpacePilot:  .Xdefault has to be in home (note the dot)
[19:59] <erUSUL> !root | _Casey_
[19:59] <ubotu> _Casey_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

[19:59] <erUSUL> _Casey_: do not advice enabling the root pass here
[20:00] <Casey> GOD
[20:00] <_Casey_> why, i use it lawl

[20:00] <Casey> HIGHLIGHTS = ANNOYING
[20:00] <bartmon> aoupi: i did that. But i have to stop/start fuse for it to know which users are in the group fuse. I don't want to restart my machine
[20:00] <moise7000> !sense of life
[20:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sense of life - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:00] <aoupi> bartmon: System->Users and Groups  then select the user and check fuse in User Settings
[20:00] <Pici> Casey: calm down.
[20:00] <erUSUL> Pici: i was struggling to find the right factoid....XD
[20:00] <aoupi> bartmon: yea, you have to log out and log back in for the group change to take effect
[20:00] <jac0b|w> does screenlets need compiz?
[20:00] <_Casey_> dude how would you have problems
[20:01] <norml_advocat1> is there a way to backup my ubuntu plus all my packages/apps.?  and also burn them to cds?
[20:01] <jpatrick> Casey: please take this elsewhere (in private with him)
[20:01] <_Casey_> please do not advise me to go private.

[20:01] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[20:01] <niknik> I'm sorry to keep asking this, but I really have no idea.  How do I get Physics FS?  I know NOTHING about building from source
[20:01] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: you're gonna make a lot of friends here, i can tell.
[20:02] <_Casey_> I noticed.
[20:02] <Pici> niknik: No one knows what that is, you need to explain what exactly you want to do.
[20:02] <PriceChild> !offtopic | IndyGunFreak _Casey_
[20:02] <ubotu> IndyGunFreak _Casey_: please see above
[20:02] <PriceChild> niknik, Do you mean physx?
[20:02] <_Casey_> Thats my main concern at this point.
[20:02] <Casey> facepalm
[20:02] <niknik> I think so
[20:02] <PriceChild> niknik, could you clarify for us then please? give us links etc. ?
[20:03] <swirv> Any help with the glib-1.2 problem?
[20:03] <dho_ragus> soooo, if my system doesn't see the network card, how do i fix that?
[20:03] <jac0b|w> are desklets and screelets the same? such as are their applets interchangable
[20:03] <leeping2007> Hi there, I'm trying to create a point-to-point vpn with two clients and one server.  Is it possible to do this?
[20:03] <Pici> jac0b|w: No, they are different programs.
[20:03] <sevensevens> Quick question - does anyone have/know of a good USB headset that works with Gutsy (preferably out of the box)
[20:03] <niknik> The error message says 'Error: Could not find 'PhysicsFS'.  Try using the native package manager for Ubuntu 7.10 (apt-get) to install a packge with a similar name to 'physfs'
[20:03] <Pici> jac0b|w: screenlets require a composite desktop, i.e: compiz
[20:03] <leeping2007> There's a "Static Key Mini-HOWTO" on the OpenVPN website but it says I can only have one client with one server
[20:04] <clustermagnet> gents... question about ubuntu installer
[20:04] <moise7000> leeping2007: It's the goal of a VPN ...
[20:04] <jac0b|w> which would be the recommended one screenlets of desklets?
[20:04] <clustermagnet> i am a mandriva user... willing to switch to ubuntu to see how things go
[20:04] <Jouva> aspire: So it no longer says "udf,iso9660" and has auto instead, right?
[20:04] <kostkon> jac0b|w, screenlets
[20:04] <clustermagnet> does the ubuntu installer, 7.1 pick up lvm volumes right off the getgo?
[20:04] <Jouva> ...But then again you specified the file system type
[20:04] <MsK`> hi
[20:04] <jac0b|w> pici: thanks
[20:05] <leeping2007> moise7000, what do you mean?  What's the goal of a VPN?
[20:05] <MsK`> when I type a word in firefox's url bar, it performs a google "i'm feeling lucky" search, which is good, but it doesn't works with more words. How can I fix that ?
[20:05] <jac0b|w> kostkon: thanks
[20:05] <sevensevens> VPN lets you connect to a windows virtual private network (and linux private networks)
[20:05] <niknik> http://icculus.org/physfs/
[20:05] <aoupi> clustermagnet: i _think_ the alternate install CD does, not sure about the normal one
[20:06] <jac0b|w> kostkon: if I have compiz installed do I have it running to use screenlets
[20:06] <norml_advocat1>  is there a way to backup my ubuntu plus all my packages/apps.?  and also burn them to cds?
[20:06] <norml_advocat1>  is there a way to backup my ubuntu plus all my packages/apps.?  and also burn them to cds?

[20:06] <ubotu> norml_advocat1: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers
[20:06] <kostkon> jac0b|w, yes, you 'll have to have compiz running otherwise the screenlets will appear "funny" or maybe even not run at all
[20:07] <two_bits> what does irqfixup do?
[20:07] <two_bits> as a boot parameter?
[20:07] <Jouva> sevensevens: He was complaining that the OpenVPN website says you can only have one client and one server, not multiple clients and one server
[20:07] <aspire> Jouva: it says that it is the wrong filesystem
[20:07] <cthom06> i had a quick question, i can see my wireless card in my devices and with ndiswrapper -l, but for some reason wlan0 wont show up in if or iwconfig

[20:09] <sevensevens> ALSA is having issues turning off my speakers when I use normal headphones, so I'm looking for a good pair of USB headphones

[20:11] <sevensevens> Anyone know of a good pair of USB headphones that work in ubuntu
[20:11] <prince_jammys> !hardware | sevensevens
[20:11] <ubotu> sevensevens: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection
[20:11] <_Casey_> Hmmm
[20:11] <cthom06> and my /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper contains 'alias wlan0 ndiswrapper' but modprobe -v ndiswrapper  returns nothing
[20:11] <_Casey_> I just use normal headphones seven
[20:11] <gatestone> Has anyone expereinced this: my machine boots 2 minutes faster if I press Alt-F1 in the boot process, to see the console. Otherwise I stare at the blank screen for 2 minutes before X kicks in. If I hit Alt-F1, then X starts much sooner...?
[20:12] <prince_jammys> gatestone: laptop?
[20:12] <gatestone> yes
[20:12] <_Casey_> thats weird gatestone, my ubuntu takes like 5 minutes to boot up now :/
[20:12] <Jouva> aspire: I really don't know What to tell you then. Put it back to how it was and if you can maybe look into another burning tool and reburn the CD?
[20:12] <prince_jammys> gatestone: do you see the splash screen?
[20:12] <Jouva> aspire: Somebody else may have better insight but I sure don't
[20:12] <gatestone> prince_jammys, no splash here
[20:12] <Haz> i've got a full LAMP installation running by using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP -- what's the easiest way to implement an FTP server into this installation?
[20:12] <geekahedron> i'm trying to install wine for wow as described in https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/15544, but when running `patch -p1 < wine-wow-fixes.patch` i'm getting the error "can't find file to patch at input line 5"
[20:13] <Haz> correction, *best* way :P
[20:13] <_Casey_> geek
[20:13] <leeping2007> Is "networkmanager" the same as network-admin?
[20:13] <gatestone> prince_jammys, the first thing I see is Gdm, if I don't press Alt-F1
[20:13] <_Casey_> have you installed WoW?
[20:13] <ejer> Haz: you could just use sftp which is part of ssh
[20:13] <prince_jammys> gatestone: see if this applies: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Fix_Slow_boot.2Ffaulty_splash_screen
[20:13] <geekahedron> the line in question is "@@ -183,7 +183,26 @@"
[20:13] <aspire> Jouva: OK no problem, if anyone had a solution I'm sure they would have suggested
[20:13] <_Casey_> If i'm correct you just install it like any other windows program

[20:14] <cthom06> actually with WoW if u already have it installed on a windows machine, just copy the folder and run wow.exe in wine, though you'll prolly wanna change it to run in opengl
[20:14] <ejer> Haz: if they support sftp which many/most do... ie: filezilla
[20:14] <leninIdebian> does anyone know how to force a resolution to a screen
[20:14] <SpacePilot> Anyone know why ubuntu decides to show the memory usage for 6 processes to be "17179869180.0 GB"?
[20:14] <Haz> ^^ k
[20:15] <_Casey_> thats alot of gigs SpacePilot, can i have your computer?
[20:15] <bartmon> Pici: yeah, you'd do the same when you'd have realised you just removed your user from all the groups
[20:15] <leninIdebian> its not a default value for the screen and just for testing
[20:15] <ejer> SpacePilot: that is wicked ram!
[20:15] <Pici> bartmon: 'oops'
[20:15] <geekahedron> i do have WoW installed on the windows partition
[20:15] <SpacePilot> Yeah, I know.

[20:15] <ejer> SpacePilot: paste that?
[20:15] <_Casey_> that computer is wicked
[20:16] <bartmon> Pici: perhaps after 5 minutes when tempers cool that would be the actual respnse
[20:16] <SpacePilot> Paste what?
[20:16] <prince_jammys> deep blue
[20:16] <gatestone> prince_jammys, I will look at that
[20:16] <ejer> SpacePilot: the output that makes you see that
[20:16] <_Casey_> do a pastebin of what you saw SpacePilot
[20:16] <prince_jammys> gatestone: yeah check it out, likely applies to you
[20:16] <SpacePilot> I see it in system manager. Want a screenshot?
[20:16] <_Casey_> sure
[20:16] <_Casey_> uplaod to like tinypic
[20:16] <norml_advocat1> what command do i use to remove all things kde?
[20:16] <scott_> have they found a driver to work with lexmark x5470
[20:16] <prince_jammys> booo
[20:16] <ejer> SpacePilot: try using free -m on cli to compare
[20:17] <VSpike> What can I use to do audio transcoding?  I need to convert wma to ogg, but I don't mind going via wav.  And ffmpeg is no good, it won't read the files.
[20:17] <ejer> norml_advocat1: you could do a search in synaptic for kde...
[20:17] <aspire> IndyGunFreak: I have this disk that I burned with windows burning tool that does not mount with my ubuntu system
[20:17] <ejer> VSpike: wma is not easy to convert
[20:17] <prince_jammys> norml_advocat1: *maybe* sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[20:17] <gatestone> prince_jammys, but the vga values in the table do not have my 1280x800
[20:17] <VSpike> ejer: so I'm finding out :)
[20:17] <SpacePilot> What command is used in a terminal to get the same result as the system monitor?
[20:18] <Pici> bartmon: Try booting from the LiveCD and modifying your /etc/group file
[20:18] <IndyGunFreak> aspire: are you sure the disk is good?
[20:18] <norml_advocat1> ejer i have alot of extra kde stuff like games and apps too.  I want to get rid of all of it
[20:18] <leninIdebian> (norml_advocat1: *maybe* sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop --purge
[20:18] <ejer> VSpike: ffmpeg will do it, or mplayer, unless it is encoded
[20:18] <norml_advocat1> leninldebian will that rid everything kde?
[20:18] <VSpike> ejer: my amarok plays them OK.  Not sure if I can use whatever backend it uses for transcoding?
[20:18] <aspire> yes the disk is fine, not a scratch to it
[20:18] <leninIdebian> (norml_advocat1: and delete afterwards ~/.kde
[20:18] <ejer> VSpike: can you play it in mplayer
[20:18] <VSpike> ejer: ffmpeg will not accept the files
[20:18] <IndyGunFreak> don't know why that would be.
[20:18] <prince_jammys> gatestone: mmmm someone else had that problem, dont remember how they solved it.  try a different res, maybe
[20:18] <leninIdebian> (norml_advocat1: most of it
[20:18] <norml_advocat1> leninldebian will you explain that last commaND?
[20:18] <VSpike> ejer: someone raised a bug for me on it in fact
[20:19] <ejer> well, ffmpeg powers most of the transcoders
[20:19] <prince_jammys> norml_advocat1: removes settings too
[20:19] <leninIdebian> (norml_advocat1: and delete /home/$USER/.kde
[20:19] <jawee> Has anyone come across anything similar to Wakoopa for Linux? They say a Linux version is coming in the future, but I wanted to know if anything exists now, because it seems very interesting.
[20:19] <norml_advocat1> sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop --purge AND DELETE /HOME/$USER/.KDE?

[20:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about groups - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[20:19] <VSpike> ejer: yeah mplayer plays it.  Can I use that somehow?
[20:19] <prince_jammys> norml_advocat1: rm -r .kde
[20:20] <leninIdebian> (norml_advocat1: yes, but i don't trust it too much
[20:20] <ejer> VSpike: mplayer -dumpaudio i think it is
[20:20] <Cpudan80> prince_jammys: should use -f there
[20:20] <ph0rensic> prince_jammys, I always put it before
[20:20] <norml_advocat1> prince_jammys rm -r .kde will remove all kde stuff?

[20:25] <fuffwork> when i select restart from my shutdown menu in ubuntu, it looks like it's shutting down for a bit, and then the screen flashes purple or green, and then goes black. My pc speaker then makes a long beep, and the screen stays black and doesn't startup. To get around it, I have to cut the power to the computer, and then turn the power back on and start it up - any idea what might cause this?
[20:25] <ph0rensic> bartmon, what do you want to know about user groups? As in permissions in the filesystem?
