[10:53] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.

[10:55] <summer_s4> how do i install beryl?
[10:55] <earthling> summer_s4, you're too lazy to fix it now.  is that what you PM'd me?
[10:56] <rolfen> summer_s4: if you fix your synptic everything will become easy
[10:56] <earthling> summer_s4, don't ask for help.
[10:56] <earthling> summer_s4, and don't PM me.
[10:57] <summer_s4> i am to tired to fix my errors.  It is 4 in the morning were i am
[10:57] <togr> then get some sleep
[10:57] <earthling> summer_s4, if you're too tired to fix what's broken, then don't ask for help.  very simple.
[10:57] <BrendanM> summer, this is really easy
[10:57] <togr> try again when you're awake
[10:58] <BrendanM> I've had that problem
[10:58] <BrendanM> just run the dpkg command in a terminal
[10:58] <summer_s4> how do i fix it?
[10:58] <BrendanM> and then synaptic will work
[10:58] <BrendanM> summer, do you know where the terminal is?
[10:58] <netyire> anyone know what the problem is?
[10:58] <summer_s4> umm... 1 problome.  I am new to linux so barely
[10:58] <netyire> or has the same problem?
[10:58] <summer_s4> i am awake enough to fix it
[10:59] <BrendanM> Summer, I think the terminal is under accessories (Somebody else? I'm not on GNOME)
[10:59] <summer_s4> too bad my step-dad isn't working with ubuntu
[10:59] <summer_s4> ok what do i type in it
[10:59] <togr> applications->accessories
[10:59] <BrendanM> sudo dpkg --configure -a
[10:59] <summer_s4> i knew were it was
[10:59] <BrendanM> and then you might have to enter your password
[10:59] <Anton99> :D :D :D
[11:00] <netyire> anyone can help me with deluge, the download stays at 99.xx% :(
[11:00] <BrendanM> after that (assuming you don't get any other weird errors) synaptic should work
[11:00] <Anton99> apt-get moo
[11:00] <summer_s4> how long is it supposed to take?
[11:00] <BrendanM> like a few seconds for me
[11:00] <Anton99> sudo apt-get moo :D :D :D :D :D :lol: :lol: :lol:
[11:00] <BrendanM> it might take longer depending on what you have installed
[11:00] <BrendanM> Somebody correct me, but I think what it's doing is rebuilding the database of installed packages on your machine
[11:01] <summer_s4> sudo apt-get moo
[11:01] <summer_s4>          (__)
[11:01] <summer_s4>          (oo)

[11:01] <summer_s4> ...."Have you mooed today?"...
[11:01] <summer_s4> This appeared on ternimal
[11:01] <summer_s4> sudo apt-get moo
[11:01] <BrendanM> A lot of times stuff on Linux doesn't give you any message if it works, it just gives you a blank thing
[11:01] <summer_s4>  (__)
[11:01] <BrendanM> yeah, that's a little joke
[11:01] <BrendanM> the apt cow
[11:01] <Anton99> yeah :D this is easter egg :D
[11:01] <summer_s4> it says have you mooed today
[11:01] <BrendanM> it's a joke, don't worry about it
[11:02] <Anton99> man apt-get
[11:02] <Anton99> if there is This APT Has super cow powers!
[11:02] <Anton99> then it appears :D
[11:02] <netyire> urm... anyone?
[11:02] <summer_s4> sudo apt-get poop
[11:02] <summer_s4> how do i set up beryl?
[11:02] <Anton99> Anton99	!sex
[11:02] <Anton99> 	ubotu	Sorry, I don't know anything about sex - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:02] <Anton99> lol...
[11:02] <irena> age?
[11:02] <irena> live?
[11:02] <BrendanM> summer, see if synaptic works
[11:02] <BrendanM> and if synaptic works, there's probably a package for beryl
[11:03] <BrendanM> although you might want to wait until you're less tired to start in on beryl
[11:03] <BrendanM> I've heard it can be tricky. You need to right video card drivers.
[11:03] <Anton99> how i can set up AIXGL?
[11:03] <summer_s4> it works
[11:03] <BrendanM> yay!
[11:04] <Anton99> and who is different between XGL and AIXGL
[11:04] <Anton99> ?
[11:04] <netyire> anyone can help me with deluge, the download stays at 99.xx%, yet the download speed is >20kbps
[11:05] <BrendanM> netyire, is this all downloads?
[11:05] <Houdini_User> hello
[11:05] <BrendanM> or just one specific torrent you're having a problem with?
[11:05] <netyire> hmm, its the first torrent I tried, its from a private tracker and is quite well seeded
[11:06] <netyire> I've read the deluge forums or part of it, some other people have posted about a similar situation
[11:06] <BrendanM> netyire, it's possible that there's like 1 or 2 pieces that nobody has. so your speed stays high, but you keep downloading the same parts
[11:06] <netyire> the deluge irc channel ain't responding
[11:06] <netyire> hmm
[11:06] <BrendanM> ok, well, then I'd say keep looking around those forums
[11:06] <netyire> maybe Deluge doesn't ban bad peers
[11:06] <BrendanM> people on there are going to know a lot more than anyone here
[11:06] <netyire> :D
[11:06] <Houdini_User> im a new ubuntu user  ..installed it just yesterday (first time using a linux platform)
[11:06] <netyire> okay then, appreciate the help
[11:07] <BrendanM> cool, welcome aboard Houdini
[11:07] <rolfen> Houdini_User: welcome
[11:07] <BrendanM> sorry I couldn't be more use
[11:07] <BrendanM> try at least one other torrent
[11:07] <daya> raphink, hi
[11:07] <Houdini_User> i have a few questions...maybe someone can help me with then
[11:07] <BrendanM> to make sure it isn't just a problem with that torrent/tracker
[11:07] <rolfen> Houdini_User: ubuntu is not perfect... but it can be made to work :) sure go ahead
[11:07] <BrendanM> sure Houdini, go a head
[11:07] <netyire> :D, I'll try ktorrent
[11:08] <Houdini_User> ok..#1...i have a gf6800...and i want to install the latest drivers for that....but i dunno what driver version is currently installed.....how do i find that out?
[11:08] <Houdini_User> nvidia geforce 6800 gt....videocard
[11:09] <rolfen> Houdini_User: what you could do is go into synaptic and do a search on "nvidia" and see what comes up
[11:10] <summer_s4> why do i have to remove sun java manually
[11:10] <Houdini_User> yeah...i did that search...and installed    nvidia_glx package...
[11:10] <Anton99> nvidia-glx :)
[11:10] <BrendanM> Houdini, try typing 'fglrxinfo'
[11:10] <BrendanM> in the terminal
[11:10] <rolfen> Houdini_User: just near the name there is the version ifo
[11:10] <rolfen> info
[11:10] <BrendanM> that should tell you something about the driver
[11:11] <Houdini_User> lemme check where this terminal is...
[11:11] <rolfen> Houdini_User: it's in applications
[11:11] <rolfen> accessories
[11:11] <summer_s4> oh god this takes a long time
[11:12] <BrendanM> houdini: applications -> accessories
[11:12] <_Lucretia_> ubuntu hung again last night, could change desktops with the mouse but the keyboard wouldn't respond. the power management is set to never on both display and computer
[11:12] <summer_s4> how do i get the linux equivelent of the [ctrl] +[alt] +[delete] ?
[11:12] <BrendanM> the terminal is a big part of using linux.
[11:12] <arnath> hi, my grub is reporting an "error 5"
[11:12] <arnath> 5 : Partition table invalid or corrupt
[11:12] <arnath>     This error is returned if the sanity checks on the integrity of the partition table fail. This is a bad sign.
[11:12] <BrendanM> summer, ctrl+esc will let you kill things
[11:12] <arnath> so...how bad is it exactly?
[11:12] <BrendanM> or, ctrl+alt+esc
[11:12] <arnath> is the harddrive wasted or..?
[11:13] <BrendanM> arnath, that could be bad news
[11:13] <BrendanM> have you tried using the recovery mode? or does it not even get that far?
[11:13] <arnath> doesnt get that far
[11:13] <Houdini_User> ok...i typed that   fglrxinfo....and it said..that the package is not installed....i can install it by typing:  sudo <something>
[11:14] <BrendanM> arnath, you should try booting from a live CD if possible
[11:14] <rolfen> summer_s4: system monitor
[11:14] <arnath> BrendanM: is it my harddrive that is broken?
[11:14] <BrendanM> arnath, it sounds like at the very least the partition table is corrupted
[11:14] <BrendanM> that almost always happens if the hard drive is physically failing, but sometimes other things cause it too
[11:14] <arnath> ye, but i dont know what can cause that :s
[11:15] <arnath> ah
[11:15] <arnath> my computer had been acting weird before, crashing after a few hours, i had to reboot manually everytime
[11:15] <BrendanM> if you boot from a live CD, you might be able to mount the hard drive and recover data off of it
[11:15] <Houdini_User> using this new OS ...reminds me of the time when i first installed  OS/2 Warp 3.0 ...over 13 yrs ago...hehe
[11:15] <arnath> in that respect, im lucky, i have just backed up 80+ gig of files from the drive
[11:16] <BrendanM> houdini, wow. If you can use OS/2 Warp, you can definitely deal with Ubuntu
[11:16] <Houdini_User> hehe
[11:17] <arnath> BrendanM: burning live cd btw, will see wot it does
[11:17] <Houdini_User> ok...next question is... #2...ubuntu will not let me increase my screen res past 1024x768....  how do i get it to 1600x1200?
[11:17] <_Lucretia_> is anybody else getting random hangs in ubuntu? This is only happening when I leave the machine alone
[11:17] <arnath> _Lucretia_: ye me :|
[11:17] <_Lucretia_> is it the same tho? leave the machine alone?
[11:17] <arnath> ye
[11:17] <_Lucretia_> re you 32-bit or 64?
[11:17] <arnath> 32
[11:17] <_Lucretia_> are
[11:18] <_Lucretia_> right, 64 here
[11:18] <arnath> ah
[11:18] <_Lucretia_> is yours pm related?
[11:18] <_Lucretia_> somebody else here had that
[11:18] <shack> Hi guys, could someone take a look on this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30082/
[11:18] <arnath> not a clue
[11:18] <_Lucretia_> arnath: have you got got pm set to never?
[11:18] <summer_s4> can someone get houdini's question answered?
[11:18] <arnath> but now my computer won't boot anymore, getting "error 5" in grub
[11:18] <shack> When I'm trying to install software with apt-get instaal softwarename I get those errors
[11:18] <BrendanM> Houdini, here's some info about nVidia drivers: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_setup_nvidia_drivers_in_7.04
[11:18] <arnath> _Lucretia_: not entirely sure what you mean by that hehe, not really a guru :|
[11:18] <arnath> :D
[11:19] <Houdini_User> thank you BrendanM
[11:19] <Houdini_User> i'll check itout right now
[11:19] <_Lucretia_> Houdini_User: do you have that res in your xorg.conf file? if not, you won't get it to work
[11:19] <_Lucretia_> arnath: go to system -> prefs -> power management, both sliders
[11:19] <arnath> _Lucretia_: can't do that :s pc won't boot anymore as of this morning
[11:20] <_Lucretia_> arnath: ah
[11:20] <avis> what would be the proper command line to tar and compress a home directory ?
[11:20] <_Lucretia_> arnath: will it post?
[11:20] <arnath> _Lucretia_: eh?
[11:21] <Houdini_User> no _Lucretia_...i dunno if that is in the xorg.conf file...i just installed ubuntu a few hours ago....my first time using  a linux platform :)
[11:21] <summer_s4> thanks brendanM
[11:21] <BrendanM> avis, try man "tar"
[11:21] <_Lucretia_> arnath: does it not boot at all or can it get somewhere?
[11:21] <arnath> _Lucretia_: it errors out when grub is starting to load, says grub error 5
[11:21] <BrendanM> wow, arnath and lucretia, sounds like you have the same issue
[11:21] <evm> avis: something like: tar -czvf filename.tar.bz2 /home/homedir
[11:22] <avis> thank you evm
[11:22] <BrendanM> my advice would be to boot from a live CD and run fscheck (file system check) on your hard drives
[11:22] <evm> avis: oops, replace the z with a j if you want the bz2 suffix...
[11:22] <arnath> BrendanM: burning the cd as we speak :p
[11:23] <avis> evm, ok thank you.
[11:23] <_Lucretia_> Houdini_User: yeah, that's probably the problem then, you ned to create a new line in your xorg.conf file, "gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and where the lines are in the "Display" subsections, add in the new resolution "1600x1200" before all the others for all the different bit depths. Adding it first will select that as default
[11:24] <Houdini_User> cool..thanks...
[11:24] <_Lucretia_> Houdini_User: like this: Modes    "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1280x492" "800x600"
[11:24] <Houdini_User> got it
[11:25] <_Lucretia_> arnath: your boot partition might be screwed
[11:25] <Houdini_User> ok...last question for now...#3...is there a yahoo messanger for ubuntu? the yahoo messnager site shows versions for redhat, freebsd, debian linux only....
[11:25] <_Lucretia_> arnath: try the live cd
[11:25] <BrendanM> it sounds like the partition table is shot at least
[11:25] <arnath> it just finished burning
[11:25] <BrendanM> it's possible the partition itself is ok
[11:25] <_Lucretia_> Houdini_User: if they have a deb package, you can ue that
[11:25] <Houdini_User> ok :)  thanks alot
[11:25] <_Lucretia_> BrendanM: or the mbr is knackered
[11:26] <Jordan_U> Houdini_User, Does GAIM support yahoo messenger?
[11:26] <BrendanM> Houdini_User, I think gaim will let you use Yahoo messenger
[11:26] <_Lucretia_> which will require grub being installed again
[11:26] <Houdini_User> what is gaim?
[11:26] <BrendanM> but I don't know about a standalone client
[11:26] <BrendanM> Houdini_User, gaim is the Ubuntu instant messenger program
[11:26] <BrendanM> !gaim
[11:26] <ubotu> Instant Messenger Clients: Gaim (GNOME, http://help.ubuntu.com/community/GaimHowto), Kopete (KDE), both supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC.
[11:26] <avis> gain is a IM client that supports a bunch of different protocols in one
[11:26] <Jordan_U> Houdini_User, A messenger that supports just about everything
[11:26] <_Lucretia_> can anybody help me pinpoint this hang?
[11:26] <BrendanM> hmm, doesn't list Yahoo
[11:26] <Houdini_User> ohh
[11:26] <avis> gaim
[11:26] <BrendanM> unless Jabber = Yahoo?
[11:26] <aperson> it supports yahoo
[11:26] <_Lucretia_> BrendanM: nah
[11:27] <matkix> Can someone help me! I'm following this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=308152 and I need help on a step!
[11:27] <_Lucretia_> BrendanM: dont think it does
[11:27] <thomash_> I've got a laptop with an integrated intel sound card. The problem I'm having is that when I connect headphones the sound still comes out of the laptop speakers as well as the headphones. The mixer doesn't let me change that. any ideas?
[11:27] <aperson> google talk uses jabber
[11:27] <Houdini_User> thank you everyone for the help...
[11:27] <Jordan_U> BrendanM, I think Jabber = google talk
[11:27] <arnath> o fucked up, now my computer isnt getting any power anymore it seems
[11:27] <arnath> wtf
[11:27] <DerangedDingo> GAIM supports yahoo
[11:27] <Houdini_User> once i get all this working...i'll come back with more questions :)
[11:27] <DerangedDingo> i use it every day
[11:27] <aperson> ditto
[11:27] <_Lucretia_> k
[11:27] <BrendanM> Houdini user, it looks like there is a Yahoo messenger standalone client too
[11:27] <arnath> well actually its getting power, but wont start up
[11:27] <arnath> ...
[11:27] <Jordan_U> !ohmy | arnath
[11:27] <ubotu> arnath: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:28] <avis> what are some typical tasks i might wish to run on a desktop to add to my /etc/anachrontab file ?  i've got updatedb down.  not sure what else
[11:28] <arnath> sorry
[11:28] <Houdini_User> ohh..and i need a irc client too.....but i guess there will be a mirc for that..
[11:28] <aperson> xchat is good
[11:28] <Trezker_> I like xchat
[11:28] <BrendanM> Houdini_User, gaim supports IRC too
[11:28] <DerangedDingo> yeah
[11:29] <avis> Houdini_User, i like xchat.
[11:29] <BrendanM> I'm actually using gaim right now (well, pidgin actually)
[11:29] <aperson> wait, you need an irc client, but yet, you are in irc
[11:29] <DerangedDingo> i'm using gaim right now for IRC
[11:29] <Trezker_> Haven't decided whether xchat in gnome is better or worse than wchat in windows...
[11:29] <BrendanM> xchat is probably more full-featured
[11:29] <aperson> I don't like the gnome specific version
[11:29] <DerangedDingo> gaim has a good deal of features... the commands are here.. it highlights your name if it's mentioned
[11:29] <Houdini_User> aperson...im on irc right now on my laptop..hehe...which is windows :)
[11:29] <DerangedDingo> etc, etc
[11:29] <aperson> ahh
[11:30] <BrendanM> well, good luck with Linux Houdini
[11:30] <matkix> Can someone help me! I'm following this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=308152 and I need help on a step!
[11:30] <Houdini_User> thanks
[11:30] <DerangedDingo> Pidgin is the new version
[11:30] <BrendanM> it's called pidgin in Linux too
[11:30] <DerangedDingo> GAIM is the old name
[11:30] <BrendanM> there's a deb for pidgin on www.getdeb.net
[11:30] <matkix> I'm getting an error when running make on an install im doing, can anyone help me to understand the error?
[11:30] <aperson> ahh
[11:30] <DerangedDingo> most people still use gaim because pidgin could have stability problems
[11:30] <BrendanM> and when the new version of Ubuntu launches in October, it'll include "pidgin"
[11:30] <DerangedDingo> on different distros
[11:31] <DerangedDingo> and stuff
[11:31] <aperson> ah, thanks
[11:31] <arnath> BrendanM: my computer won't boot at all anymore, it's still getting power, but nothing happens when i hit the button
[11:31] <BrendanM> arnath, did you get hit by lightning or something?
[11:31] <matkix> http://pastebin.com/m7364f8bb Can someone look at this error and hep me? please
[11:31] <OPENSTORE> Hi all
[11:31] <Houdini_User> when the new version of ubuntu releases.....we'll have install the whole OS from scratch? or is there a quick upgrade thingie?
[11:31] <BrendanM> it's possible your power supply burnt out
[11:31] <DerangedDingo> arnath, is GRUB failing?
[11:31] <arnath> BrendanM: not that i know of :s though there was a storm this morning
[11:31] <aperson> it'll upgrade itself
[11:31] <BrendanM> Houdini_user, nope. there's a really nice upgrade system built in
[11:31] <DerangedDingo> arnath: or is it a hardware problem?
[11:31] <CheshireViking> !upgrade | Houdini_User
[11:32] <ubotu> Houdini_User: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:32] <arnath> DerangedDingo: it was failing yes, but now my computer just won't do anything anymore
[11:32] <Houdini_User> nice
[11:32] <HopFlash> Hi! Anyone here who can tell me why the command df doesn't show me my root dir?
[11:32] <BrendanM> arnath, try smelling the back of the machine near the power supply fan. see if it smells like burning
[11:32] <Houdini_User> sorry for my noob questions :)
[11:32] <BrendanM> what I call "the bad computer smell"
[11:32] <arnath> BrendanM: the power supply still seems to work, as my netwerk card lights up when i turn on the power

[11:50] <rafael__> i want some help :P  i dont know what to do when the google dont answer my questions

[11:50] <rafael__> un.. i know what happened but no how to fix it :P
[11:50] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: so don't stop it
[11:51] <Shafto> GamingX, Ask away, dont bother asking to ask :)
[11:51] <rafael__> Shafto, did u read my question ? :(
[11:51] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: getting a random hang

[11:51] <avis> i am curious how a serial cable from a UPS connected to my computer may or may not enhance its ability to save itself from a power failure with ubuntu ?
[11:51] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: I see
[11:51] <danya> rafael_ : yea the guys at compiz are helpfull ! especially crdlb
[11:51] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: dunno if this is the problem
[11:51] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: process of elimination I guess
[11:52] <GamingX> Ok...I just installed Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.0.4. I tried to install the NVidia Geforce FX 5200 AGP graphics card that I had,
[11:52] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: google your make/model - others may have resolved it
[11:52] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: does powernowd just manage the frequency of the cpus?
[11:52] <skollie> avis: the idea is that the UPS will send a signal to ubuntu to shut down. Never tried so not sure it actually works, but perhaps someone does
[11:53] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: not sure - I didn't think ubuntu used powernowd
[11:53] <aaaaas> DCC SEND startkeylogger 0 0 0
[11:53] <_Lucretia_> installs by default
[11:53] <Hobbsee> sigh
[11:53] <GamingX> I downloaded the nvidia-glx package and installed it and on rebooting I am being redirected to the terminal mode instead of Ubuntu GUI starting up and I get an error saying something about not being able to start X servers

[11:54] <mc44> danya: did you enable universe?
[11:54] <danya> mc44 : yes everything is enabled
[11:55] <Shafto> GamingX, then do 'sudo nano /var/log/Xorg.0.log' and look at the bottom of the document it will give you some error messages, either that or 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' look for the "nvidia" line and change to "nv"
[11:55] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: it's not running here on feisty - is this an overheating issue?
[11:55] <danya> I'm on feisty
[11:55] <mc44> danya: try "apt-get update" then try again
[11:55] <PJ> Ubuntu Brasil

[11:57] <mc44> Hobbsee: get seveas to write an appropriate function :)
[11:57] <GamingX> what do u mean when u say look for the nvidia line and change it to nv
[11:57] <Hobbsee> mc44: he wont write one for konversation
[11:57] <mc44> danya: what does "apt-cache policy wine" say?
[11:58] <mc44> Hobbsee: well, if you will run KDE there is no hope :P
[11:58] <Hobbsee> :P
[11:58] <Shafto> GamingX, Well you'll change your driver back to the open source nv one, which would have been what you would have been running before you installed nvidia driver and borke your X
[11:58] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: amd ?
[11:58] <GamingX> how do u change it?
[11:58] <danya> installed : none , candidate none .. mc44

[11:59] <GamingX> ok
[11:59] <mc44> danya: make sure you have universe enabled
[11:59] <GamingX> Is that it?
[11:59] <danya> mc44 : I'm 100% syre
[12:00] <Shafto> GamingX, Under the 'Section "Device"' you';ll see a line Driver "nvidia" change the "nvidia" to "nv" then press ctrl+x then press y then enter and then you can type startx or reboot :)

[12:05] <mc44> danya: well if you can't find wine its most likely because those aren't enabled properly
[12:05] <nomad111> Shafto: lol thats what i thought
[12:05] <nomad111> ah yes i found it
[12:05] <matkix> gaze_: Well the wifi card required some special installation. So it is not showing up, however it IS working.
[12:05] <danya> mc44 thanks for ur efforts :)
[12:05] <gaze_> what kind of special installation?
[12:06] <gaze_> I'm pretty sure that they should show up automatically
[12:06] <matkix> gaze_: Glad you asked! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=308152
[12:06] <BashBang> matkix: if the card works what do you need manage?
[12:07] <matkix> BashBang:  I would like to be able to manage the card from a gui, so I can move from network to network with ease, the reason I use ubuntu, its a gui thats quick and easy with lots of software.
[12:07] <kraut> moin
[12:07] <gaze_> did you clear out /etc/network/interfaces?
[12:07] <matkix> well i left the info that was there before, however there was no wep or other info.
[12:08] <gaze_> okay
[12:08] <BashBang> matkix: k so you need to manage your network, not your card. if your network doesn't show up make sure you have broadcast enabled on your router
[12:08] <matkix> BashBang:  I need to manage my card, I plan to use more than one networks.
[12:09] <gaze_> that's strange. if the only line is is the auto rausb0 \ iface rausb0 inet dhcp
[12:09] <gaze_> then that's all I can think of
[12:09] <matkix> Umm pm, I will show you what is listed there.
[12:09] <afd_> hi! I'm trying to install ubuntu feisty on a ext3 partition on which I have a /home folder which I don't want erased. I can't do this because when I try to configure the partition as / (root) the installer tells me that it needs to format the partition
[12:09] <scoobtits> has anyone figured out beryl on ubuntu 7.04 for ati cards???
[12:10] <afd_> are there any options to force the install not to format the partition?
[12:10] <afd_> I only have the /home folder there
[12:10] <BashBang> matkix: I understand that, I move my laptop from home to work every day and I don't touch any settings on my network card, i just works
[12:10] <gaze_> did you restart after you got the card working? Sometimes network manager is weird about that kinda stuff
[12:10] <bullgard4> /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[12:10] <gaze_> bashbang: That's not gonna work
[12:11] <alexIdoia> anyone that knowns how to edit /usr/share/X11/xkb/ keyboard layout ? It is fairly simple but no keys refers to the function keys which I need to use
[12:11] <gaze_> I've gotta go get some sleep
[12:11] <matkix> wait
[12:11] <matkix> one sec
[12:12] <gaze_> okay
[12:12] <paolin2> or, is there any other solution to install flashplugin ?
[12:12] <matkix> gaze_: See your pm?
[12:12] <gaze_> yes, and my guess is that since it's not under wlan0 it isn't showing up under network manager, but that's just a wild guess
[12:12] <matkix> BashBang: Thanks but I move to / from un-known networks so I need to manage it.
[12:12] <gaze_> err... wlan*
[12:13] <matkix> So what do I do?!
[12:13] <matkix> :S
[12:14] <gaze_> network manager is a pain in the ass to get working when it doesn't work... best thing to do is tail -f your syslog and restart the network manager daemon and see what it's really picking up
[12:14] <paolin2> is it only me that I have this problem with flash ?
[12:14] <gaze_> and just work from there
[12:14] <matkix> humm
[12:14] <gaze_> good luck
[12:14] <matkix> haha
[12:14] <matkix> thanks.
[12:15] <joey__> is fedora a good distro?

[12:15] <joey__> i meant to ask on another channel
[12:15] <BashBang> matkix: what exactly is the problem, I jumped in, in the middle of this
[12:15] <gaze_> and yes, it's a fine distro
[12:16] <AdvoWork> hi there. if my windows server is(server1, or <IP_ADDRESS>) how can i make a connection to that in ubuntu. I tried connect to network, custom path etc, but it says it cant find the directory :/
[12:18] <bobsomebody> how do you change the user/group settings on files?
[12:18] <bobsomebody> i forgot the command
[12:19] <BashBang> chmod
[12:19] <bobsomebody> thats permissions only i though
[12:19] <BashBang> or chown
[12:19] <bobsomebody> yeah
[12:19] <bobsomebody> that one
[12:19] <bobsomebody> lol
[12:19] <bobsomebody> thanks
[12:19] <BashBang> np
[12:24] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: If I understood your situation all right, then your only solution is to install Samba
[12:25] <matkix_> Question, Say my network manager won't work. How can I connect to a wireless network?
[12:26] <ironfroggy> how do i use a ! in a command line?
[12:26] <ironfroggy> it keeps being interpretted by bash and it doesn't seem to like it either
[12:26] <BashBang> matkix_: have you read the man page on iwconfig?
[12:28] <sreeram> ironfroggy: echo \!abcd works for me
[12:28] <sreeram> so does: echo '!abcd'
[12:28] <sreeram> (with bash)
[12:28] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 why samba/
[12:29] <matkix_> BashBang: I've looked at it. not sure I understand. I see my network listed... but im not sure it connected... It isn't getting dhcp. Ideas?
[12:29] <sreeram> Does Ubuntu have something equivalent to `Debian Testing'? So that I can keep updating to reasonably recent releases on a continuous basis?
[12:29] <ironfroggy> im doing `python -c "print ord('\!')" and the \ is being sent to python
[12:30] <bullgard4> Samba connects Windows and Linux computers in a LAN.
[12:31] <nox-Hand> How do I check procinfo in command line?
[12:31] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: Samba connects Windows and Linux computers in a LAN.
[12:31] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 i think ive got samba installed already :/
[12:32] <Frogzoo_> sreeram: nope - ubuntu has a strict 6 month release cycle - you can find 3rd party backports
[12:32] <matkix_> BashBang: I've looked at it. not sure I understand. I see my network listed... but im not sure it connected... It isn't getting dhcp. Ideas?
[12:33] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: So much better. Then program your Ubuntu client to connect to your server1 at <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:33] <sreeram> Frogzoo_: Ok
[12:33] <sreeram> ironfroggy: This works: python -c print\ ord\(\'\!\'\)
[12:33] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 thats what im stuck on. is there a way i can firstly tell if the ubuntu client pc can see the windows server?
[12:33] <sreeram> It's a bit convoluted. There might be a simpler way.
[12:33] <BashBang> matkix_: can you see you comp in your routers dhcp table? is ssid broadcast enabled on the router?
[12:34] <matkix_> I'm looking now, and ssid is enabled
[12:34] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 i tried ping server1  - couldnt find, ping 192... it pinged that ok
[12:35] <matkix_> BashBang: Its just showing on this end... not connecting as i see it.
[12:35] <ironfroggy> sreeram: crazy
[12:35] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: It depends on what do you consider 'firstly'. I would suggest that you first ping to <IP_ADDRESS>. What is the result of this ping?
[12:35] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 it received all packets, so its found the ip ok.
[12:36] <BlackDesign> Hi
[12:36] <matkix_> BashBang: Wait! I lie, it is connected, I guess I just need traffic now! How might I get things to run over the wireless?
[12:36] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: And if you ping to server1: What is the result?
[12:36] <BlackDesign> could anyone tell me the default lettertype in Xchat?
[12:36] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 unknown host server1
[12:36] <GamingX> Can someone help me with a problem?
[12:37] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: So open your computer 'server1' and program it with its hostname=server1.
[12:38] <tijn> hi all
[12:38] <AdvoWork> its already got that, ie from the windows clients i can ping server1 and connect to the server by doing \\server1  just not from the ubuntu network
[12:38] <BashBang> matkix_: great
[12:38] <summer_s4> so much help with linux
[12:39] <matkix_> BashBang:  So how do I get it to take an ip?
[12:39] <tijn> !fiesty
[12:39] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) is the latest version of Ubuntu. Upgrading to Feisty: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades - Downloading: http://www.ubuntu.com/download - For BitTorrent downloads, see !Torrents
[12:39] <BashBang> matkix_: how do you know that it is connected?
[12:39] <tijn> !sound
[12:39] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[12:39] <matkix_> Clients:  	 00:13:D3:83:EC:38 signal -61dBm
[12:39] <matkix_> My router shows it.
[12:40] <BashBang> matkix_: but no entry in dhcp tabels?
[12:40] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: This would be a troubleshooting step later. Before, pinging to server1 from your ubuntu machine should work all right.
[12:40] <matkix_> no, just one for the wired side.
[12:40] <user1__> what's latest vmware in ubuntu? can i run win2000 in vmware of ubuntu host?
[12:41] <BashBang> matkix_: iwconfig is your friend.
[12:41] <matkix_> BashBang: Yeah got that, read the man and still am attempting to set it up so I get a ip via dhcp.
[12:42] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: You are speaking about an 'Ubuntu network'. I hope that all the computers that you spoke about so far are in the same LAN. Are they or are they not?
[12:42] <tijn> iam having a problem with my mic, if i connect one, i can hear it over the speakers, but i cant record.. is this an know issue?
[12:43] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 i may have it ;)
[12:43] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: I do not understand you very well. What do you mean?
[12:44] <BashBang> matkix_: I hate to beat this to death but, if you run nm "network-manager" from the console does it give you an applet in the system tray?
[12:44] <matkix_> Command not found
[12:44] <tijn> is there an ubuntu multimedia chan?
[12:45] <Shafto> tijn, The closest you'll get is the #alsa channel
[12:45] <tijn> Shafto, k thnx
[12:45] <matkix_> BashBang: Command not found... Is this something I need t oinstall
[12:45] <alexIdoia> how do I know which keyboard layout I am using ?
[12:45] <Stormx2> matkix_: You sure? Type: network-manager
[12:46] <BashBang> matkix_: sry it should be   nm-applet
[12:46] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 ok, ive made a connection to where i need(by Connect to Network > Windows Share)  so in Places ive got <IP_ADDRESS>, if i click it, i can see all the folders on the server. How do I now get to that location from the terminal?
[12:46] <Stormx2> Needs a sudo, too.
[12:46] <kevin__> which layout should i use when i am using a dell inspiron
[12:46] <kevin__> 1501
[12:46] <BashBang> matkix_: on the console it's just nm; or should be nm-applet
[12:47] <matkix_> BashBang: Its open, and shows no wireless, but wireless is there I can see it with iwconfig and ifconfig and see on the router its connected.
[12:47] <matkix_> BashBang:  Just not requesting an ip.
[12:47] <kevin__> how i remove gedit  completly
[12:47] <BashBang> matkix_: k, go to manual configuration in the nm applet
[12:47] <matkix_> kk there
[12:48] <amimusa> hello, i need to configure my apache as secure server, do i need to install apache-ssl ?
[12:48] <an1> hi, I need to get beryl and emerald to load automatically.
[12:48] <Shafto> kevin__, sudo apt-get --purge remove gedit? You'll just have to hope it doesnt try to remove alot of other gnome stuff :)
[12:48] <matkix_> BashBang: and?
[12:48] <amimusa> or apache2 has some module ?
[12:48] <an1> they work if I type beryl in the console.
[12:48] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: I do not remember as I have not done this for a long time. Try to input "cd //server1"
[12:48] <Shafto> an1, System-->preferences-->session-->startup programs-->add-->command 'beryl-manger'
[12:48] <an1> thnx Shafto.
[12:49] <matkix_> Still here?
[12:49] <BashBang> matkix_: does it show a dialog with wireless?
[12:49] <kevin__> yes, i have do that ,but when i try to do a right click on a text file ,it also hava a "open with text edit ", why ?
[12:50] <ironfroggy> how do i give a user rights to change the passwords of other users?
[12:50] <ironfroggy> is that just determined by write access to passwd/shadow?
[12:50] <flush> moo
[12:50] <kevin__> i have install leafpad, i think it should a open with leafpad , any thing i can do ? thanks
[12:51] <matkix_> Am I still connected?
[12:51] <matkix_> Am I here?
[12:51] <matkix_> BashBang: No luck...
[12:51] <movi> anyone has an idea why ksoftirqd/0 is eating up about 25-30% of my cpu all the time ?
[12:51] <matkix_> I opened firefox and it won't load a page
[12:51] <BashBang> matkix_: what did you do?
[12:52] <sh> I have a Thinkpad T60p. My problem is that the volume keys are not working in Ubuntu 7.04. Last time I booted the live CD they were working! How can I activate them?
[12:52] <matkix_> BashBang: Disconnected from wired and attempted to go to wifi
[12:52] <Frogzoo_> ironfroggy: no way I know of doing that - you'll need a tool for it
[12:52] <BashBang> matkix_: go to manual config on the nm applet
[12:52] <kevin__> the function key in my feisty on a dell inspiron 1501 sometimes work
[12:52] <matkix_> BashBang: Now in iw its now showing on a network
[12:53] <matkix_> BashBang: I did
[12:53] <ironfroggy> Frogzoo_: no, i mean what does the user need to use passwd on other users
[12:53] <ironfroggy> so i am using a tool
[12:53] <Frogzoo_> ironfroggy: you could do it with sudo, but that would give permission to change passwords for all users
[12:53] <ironfroggy> thats what i want
[12:53] <BashBang> matkix_ : k no click wireless and the properties
[12:53] <ironfroggy> i just need to make sure the use can sudo passwd? good
[12:53] <Frogzoo_> ironfroggy: you can't run passwd on other users unless you're root
[12:53] <matkix_> BashBang: Did
[12:53] <Frogzoo_> ironfroggy: of course, they could change root's password
[12:54] <ironfroggy> yes, of course.
[12:54] <ironfroggy> its a controlled service
[12:54] <an1> Tried it, logged out, logged back in, no dice. (beryl manager)
[12:54] <an1> do I need to restart x?
[12:54] <BashBang> matkix_ : make sure roaming mode is unchecked and enter you networks name under essid
[12:55] <matkix_> BashBang: I pmed you with what iwconfig is showing
[12:55] <an1> nope, tried restarting x.
[12:55] <an1> still not working.
[12:55] <sonnyjim> hey guys... where can i find the source code for the 'cut' command (i already tried ftp.gnu.org/gnu)
[12:56] <matkix_> BashBang: Its getting a ipv6 .... not v4 why?
[12:56] <BashBang> that's probably your mac address
[12:57] <Theory> sonnyjim: you go to packages.ubuntu.com and find the package cut is in, then you apt-get source that package
[12:57] <an1> I'm not sure I have the right command added to my sessions startup, or do I need to do a full reboot?
[12:57] <Frogzoo_> sonnyjim: it will be in the repos
[12:57] <BashBang> matkix_ : what brand of router do you have?
[12:57] <sonnyjim> Theory, Frogzoo_: okay. thanks guys :)
[12:57] <Frogzoo_> sonnyjim: apt-get source coreutils
[12:57] <an1> ok, gonna try a full reboot.
[12:58] <Frogzoo_> d'oh
[12:59] <Narada> hi guys what are the default permissions of /tmp; i.e. what command can i use to recreate 'drwxrwxrwt'?
[01:00] <Zta> Why does this package exist: libcommons-collections-java?  By reading its description, it seems like a subset of the java rt lib ... which I've already installed, as I've installed the sun-java packages
[01:00] <Zta> Why would anyone be interested in splitting up the java rt lib?
[01:00] <jatt> Zta: it is no subset
[01:00] <Zta> so far so good
[01:00] <Zta> what is it then?
[01:01] <hamza> hey guys a little help needed
[01:01] <an1> Ok, tried a full reboot, turning off desktop effects and restarting X.  Still can't get emerald and beryl to load automatically.
[01:01] <bullgard4> /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[01:01] <jatt> Zta: is a set of reusable componentens by the jakarta commons project
[01:01] <an1> though they do work from the console.
[01:01] <matkix_> BashBang: I really need help with this. I've been trying for hours! It is now not connecting to my network, so i've moved a step back...
[01:01] <BashBang> matkix_ : what brand of router do you have?
[01:01] <matkix_> BashBang: Its running a distro of linux
[01:02] <jatt> Zta: it's an extension of the Java Collections Framework
[01:02] <hamza> i get the error  kinit image not found something..doing normal boot
[01:02] <BashBang> matkix_ : it's home made router?
[01:03] <matkix_> No, its a linksys with linux google sevasoft
[01:03] <davf> Is it possible to change "Applications Places System" to icons only or is there another menu system to replace gnome menu
[01:03] <matkix_> BashBang:  ITS not the router! I just need to be able to configure the freekin card.
[01:03] <BashBang> matkix_ : k, so we'll go through step by step
[01:04] <matkix_> BashBang: I need to tell it what network to connect, get an ip and share traffic.
[01:05] <BashBang> matkix_ : go in to your routers admin interface, and you should have a tab for wireless, yes?
[01:05] <matkix_> BashBang: Do you not understand its not the router?
[01:05] <hamza> hey how come my ubuntu doesnt automatically connect to my wireless network
[01:05] <an1> ah, beryl-manager wasn't installed in synaptic.
[01:05] <an1> *sigh*
[01:05] <an1> gonna restart x again. :D
[01:06] <devcenter> hello, guys
[01:06] <BashBang> matkix_ : yes, but we need info from there to put into network manager to get you connected

[01:42] <gorski> i changed the partition table, and every time i upgrade the kernel my menu.lst brings back to old one. Where can i change grub settings permanetly?
[01:42] <an1> That's a package that should be installed by default!!!
[01:42] <an1> good question.  What's the easiest way to clean up grub?
[01:43] <mohit> see i want to write a program in c++
[01:43] <BashBang> matkix_ : it says in the docs that you may be able to use the stock wpa_supplicant but you will still have to edit the config file
[01:44] <matkix_> I'm attempting to understand the readme...
[01:44] <matkix_> What one are you looking at?
[01:44] <usu516> colo
[01:44] <Pici> mohit: okay, so write one and compile it with gcc
[01:44] <usu516> ola
[01:44] <gorski> i changed the partition table, and every time i upgrade the kernel, my menu.lst brings back to old one. Where can i change grub settings permanetly?
[01:44] <mohit> what about included files?
[01:45] <an1> gorski.  You might want to look at grubed, though truthfully, without an easy .deb and simpler GUI I am not fully endorsing it.
[01:45] <gorski> ok
[01:46] <JayRoe> is there a way to change settings in a program without recompiling it?
[01:46] <BashBang> matkix_ : in the newest drivers (if I had the right ones) there should be a folder for modules, and a folder for wpa_supplicant
[01:46] <mohit> where are my installed applications
[01:46] <matkix_> BashBang: yeah there is that folder
[01:46] <mohit> bashbang?
[01:46] <vbanait> Hi installed ubuntu on my celeron pc. It is not showing my wired pc . lsipc gives following information ; Hangzhou Silan Microelectronics Co RU8139D
[01:47] <BashBang> matkix_ : I think that is your problem right there, no wpa_supplicant
[01:47] <wbadger> mohit, use "which programname"
[01:47] <mohit> i updated ubuntu but cant get installed applications
[01:47] <BashBang> matkix_ : only took about an hour and a half to figure that out :)

[01:51] <wbadger> mohit, why would you download programs into directories instead of using the package manager?
[01:52] <mohit> there is a application call update wizard
[01:52] <mohit> i updated it

[01:58] <wbadger> fredddy, first make UT go into windowed mode (press alt+enter), then press control+G to un-grab the mouse.

[02:11] <kiss> hi
[02:11] <IR_Nub> i have burnt ubuntu desktop image when i try to install i get errors it seems its because of my x1700
[02:11] <mbone> do anyone use Azureus ?
[02:12] <IR_Nub> ill have to install in text mode how will i do that i have no option in the menu
[02:12] <aa^way> hello, my resolution changed 800x600 somehow, how to change it back
[02:12] <Pici> IR_Nub: Unfortunately, the live cd does not have a text mode install, you will need to download the alternative cd if you need to use that option.
[02:12] <Hobbsee> IR_Nub: you need to use the alternate cd to install in text mode
[02:12] <IR_Nub> i'm trying to follow this steps http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414194
[02:13] <IR_Nub> oh =(
[02:13] <mbone> my Azureus crashes somehow > <
[02:13] <IR_Nub> thats the only way to install ubuntu on my laptop right
[02:13] <IR_Nub> =/
[02:13] <sh> I installed the restricted ATI driver. I want to increase the resolution to 1400x1050, but the configuration dialog only allows for 1024x768. What can I do?
[02:14] <aa^way> hello, my resolution changed 800x600 somehow, how to change it back?
[02:14] <Pici> IR_Nub: Thats what I used for my laptop that has an ATI x1400

[02:15] <IR_Nub> Hobbsee
[02:17] <danya_> guys how do I create a shell script ? any recommended links ?
[02:17] <togr> danya_, two simple steps:
[02:18] <togr> 1) create text file with all commands
[02:18] <togr> 2) make file executable
[02:18] <togr> examples, for use in a terminal window:
[02:18] <magnetron> danya_: 3) start the textfile with #!/bin/sh
[02:19] <togr> 1)  $ echo "echo hello world" > my_hello
[02:19] <togr> ($ is your shell prompt)
[02:19] <Geminias> hey does anyone know if ubuntu can dim displays for laptops?  there seems to be no option to dim it and so windows vista outlasts ubuntu on the battery
[02:19] <togr> 2) $ chmod +x my_hello
[02:19] <danya_> togr : I don't know how to do the things u guys just mentioned :| .. I'm a new user
[02:19] <gladierthe2nd> hey guys - have an issue with openvpn in gnome-network monitor. it appears to connect but then fails saying cannot connect to server.
[02:20] <togr> danya_, do you know what a text file is?
[02:20] <Geminias> does #!/bin/sh actually do anything?
[02:20] <danya_> togr : ummm ..
[02:20] <magnetron> Geminias: yep
[02:20] <Geminias> i thought because its commented out it's not necessary,..
[02:21] <togr> Geminias, it is a special kind of comment
[02:21] <Geminias> and tells it what shell to use?
[02:21] <togr> your shell examines the first couple of bytes of an executable file to see what to do with it
[02:21] <magnetron> Geminias: it's not run by /bin/sh, but it makes it run in /bin/sh . perl scripts usually have /usr/bin/perl or similar
[02:22] <Geminias> not run by, but run in?
[02:22] <Geminias> what does that mean?
[02:22] <togr> when the file begins with #! the rest of the line is taken as the command to execute, with the file as the first argument
[02:22] <magnetron> it's a riddle
[02:22] <togr> magnetron, heh
[02:23] <Geminias> ah
[02:23] <shazbot> hi can somebody help me to get vmware and samba working on ubuntu ?
[02:23] <togr> so your file /home/geminas/bin/foobar with #!/bin/sh as the first line will end up as
[02:23] <togr> /bin/sh /home/geminas/bin/foobar
[02:23] <gladierthe2nd> shazbot: i can help with vmware but not samba
[02:24] <Geminias> yes
[02:24] <Geminias> so you could run a perl script without saying perl foo.pl
[02:24] <togr> at which point /bin/sh will ignore the #! line and run the rest of the file as commands
[02:24] <togr> Geminias, exactly
[02:24] <gladierthe2nd> shazbot: what are you trying to do
[02:24] <shazbot> gladierthe2nd:  vmware is installed i just dont get it how i can share folders
[02:24] <akos> is it possible to install the alsa drivers from the gutsy repository, but remain at fesisty? i had problems with gutsy, and I don't want to make the full switch, but my soundcard is supported only in alsa 1.0.4
[02:25] <gladierthe2nd> shazbot: i dont know how to do it myself but i can probably find some stuff in the forums for you
[02:25] <shazbot> gladierthe2nd:  thx but i was reading a lot too, but im from germay so it is hard to understand ;)
[02:26] <Geminias> shazbot: make a folder called shared at ~/
[02:26] <Geminias> then in vmware in one of the options there is a way to make that folder shared
[02:26] <ErsatzHatrack> Could someone point me to a guide to the keystrokes for the standard desktop effects?
[02:26] <Geminias> and to access it from your windows vm you go to networking
[02:27] <phanto2> Pici: Stupid question :rdesktop -A -s "c:\seamlessrdp\seamlessrdpshell.exe c:windowsexplorer.exe" localhost:3389 -u administrator -p XXXXXXX

[02:27] <phanto2> ERROR: connect: Connection refused
[02:27] <Geminias> my networks or something like that
[02:27] <shazbot> Geminias: do you have it working ??
[02:27] <Geminias> yes
[02:27] <shazbot> lol k
[02:27] <shazbot> vmware server ?
[02:28] <Geminias> just look at the options at the top of vmware server
[02:28] <akos> is it possible to install the alsa drivers from the gutsy repository, but remain at fesisty? i had problems with gutsy, and I don't want to make the full switch, but my soundcard is supported only in alsa 1.0.4
[02:28] <Geminias> before you load you OS
[02:28] <trickwire> Trickwire
[02:28] <Geminias> there is a way to make a folder shared
[02:28] <Geminias> without resorting to samba
[02:28] <trickwire> hey sorry i come thumbeling in like this.
[02:28] <juan> ive installed firestarter to configure my iptables, but everytime i reboot my pc, the iptable rules are empty
[02:28] <FnuggleMaster> I am pretty sure /opt/e17 is not in my PATH - how would I add it?
[02:29] <banlieue> wee, an e17 user.. I actually claimed yesterday there weren't any people left running e17
[02:29] <FnuggleMaster> banlieue: haha :P
[02:29] <banlieue> how wrong I was
[02:29] <FnuggleMaster> banlieue: LIAR! ;)
[02:29] <juan> how can i configure them so they're there everytime i log back in without having to start firestarter
[02:29] <fevel> hello
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> juan: there is a checkboix inside firestarter to run every time you boot.
[02:31] <Geminias> how do i check what version of ubuntu i'm running?
[02:31] <gsuveg> re
[02:31] <juan> i'll try that again tosee if it works
[02:32] <akos> this will test my HDD-s read speed, right? sudo dd if=/dev/sda7 of=/dev/null
[02:32] <banlieue> Geminias: easiest way would be start menu > system > about ubuntu
[02:32] <Geminias> k
[02:32] <gsuveg> can i disable background change and more feauter within gnome ? i would like install 30 box to free internet
[02:32] <rolfen> akos: lemme chekc
[02:32] <gsuveg> akos: szia
[02:33] <rolfen> akos: coz you can delete your harddrive with the dd command
[02:33] <akos> gsuveg, szia...
[02:33] <Geminias> 7.02 "the fiesty fawn"
[02:33] <akos> rolfen, yeah :)
[02:33] <Geminias> i hope that is a good thing :D
[02:33] <gsuveg> akos: /join #ubuntu-hu
[02:33] <ErsatzHatrack> How do I make the scale effect work with the standard desktop effects in 7.04?
[02:34] <banlieue> Geminias: it's 7.04 actually :P
[02:34] <Geminias> true
[02:34] <esa-petri> s there any hope to get paltalk working on linuxs (I dont like thease wind*ws only programs)
[02:34] <banlieue> and yes, that's a good thing... 7.04 is the latest stable (non-beta) release
[02:35] <Geminias> excellent
[02:35] <banlieue> next version will be out in October
[02:35] <banlieue> it's a 6 month release cycle
[02:35] <Geminias> i'm curious though... my monitor is meant for 1280x800 resolution and that option isn't available through gnomes display manager thing
[02:35] <Geminias> so does that mean i might be running the wrong driver?

[03:05] <rjune> kahrytan: if it were an X problem, I would expect the keybaord to be funny in gdm too
[03:05] <CVirus> Is there anyway I could run dapper's kernel on feisty ?
[03:05] <rjune> summer_s4: you'll have to boot single user mode and edit the /etc/group file.
[03:05] <kahrytan> rjune: never said it was
[03:05] <gyaresu> CVirus: You can run whatever kernel you want. Why though?
[03:05] <summer_s4> how do i do that
[03:06] <summer_s4> rjune: how do i do that?
[03:06] <gyaresu> Anyone know where the Xorg channel is?
[03:06] <CVirus> gyaresu: is this edgy's kernel linux-image-2.6.15-23-386 ?
[03:06] <gyaresu> CVirus: I don't know. Why do you think you need another kernel?
[03:06] <summer_s4> i have to reboot the thing over?
[03:06] <CVirus> gyaresu: problem with alsa
[03:07] <daftman> can someone points me to how I can retrieve video properties from a video file using the command line?
[03:07] <rjune> summer_s4: at the boot menu, you'll have to add 'single' to the boot sequence.
[03:07] <CVirus> gyaresu: there is filed bug report about it ... sound stopped working after upgrading to feisty
[03:07] <gyaresu> CVirus: Have you found a bug report or someone elses experience?
[03:07] <CVirus> gyaresu: there is a full bug report about it
[03:07] <rjune> then mount the root partition manually, then edit the group file
[03:07] <gyaresu> CVirus: ...Link?
[03:07] <summer_s4> so i restart press enter there then choose the middle option?
[03:07] <Pici> phanto3: I dont know what you are asking. I dont see anything about going into the windows registry on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SeamlessVirtualization
[03:07] <CVirus> gyaresu: don't have it now ... as I don't recall the sound card type .. it's not on the PC I'm currently using
[03:07] <rjune> there is a rescue or something there isn't there.
[03:08] <gyaresu> Ah. Well it's usually better to get the latest kernel. Or even apply a patch and compile it yourself. (Really easy after you've done it once or twice)
[03:09] <gyaresu> CVirus: You possibly lose some updates/upgrades by going backwards. It is getting better after all and Feisty might rely on certain things being in a newer kernel.

[03:18] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: try installing 'envy' and then do a text install. That will get you the nvidia drivers and possibly help.
[03:18] <akos> Where could I set XChat's encoding to ISO-9660-2? Bacuse my unicode characters are all messed up

[03:19] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Did I miss the whole start of your problem perhaps where you were detailing what you'd done to rectify the situation?
[03:19] <fevel> are the vmware packages on the feisty repositories better than workstation 6 for ubuntu?
[03:20] <gyaresu> fevel: Depends if you've got a licence or just want player.
[03:20] <summer_s4> hello
[03:20] <fevel> gyaresu: well I could get a 1 month license
[03:20] <rjune> fevel: I'm playing with that myself.
[03:20] <fevel> and renew it monthly
[03:20] <summer_s4> is anyone going to answer  my question?
[03:20] <rjune> just get the free license for vmware server.
[03:20] <Geminias> your playing with yourself?
[03:21] <akos> Where could I set XChat's encoding to ISO-9660-2? Bacuse my unicode characters are all messed up
[03:21] <fevel> rjune: wich one? workstation6 or the server and player packages?
[03:21] <systemd0wn> anyone have much experience with the command "DD"
[03:21] <gyaresu> fevel: Tried VirtualBox?
[03:21] <gyaresu> akos: Have you tried XChat's help pages.
[03:21] <Geminias> is xchat a win32 proggy?
[03:22] <fevel> gyaresu: nope...Do you think its better?
[03:22] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to get admin privlages to a non admin w/o an admin user or reboot?
[03:22] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: I wanted to install nvidia driver manually but it didnt work. Then I next day I had a blue screen which says "no screen found" and there were unknown characters around the text. After that I have reconfigured xorg several times. And opened ubuntu again and installed envy. And tried to install the driver again...
[03:22] <rjune> fevel: vmware server.
[03:22] <gyaresu> akos: Seriously dude. 3 seconds with google... http://xchat.org/encoding/
[03:22] <Genomsaren> now it crashes sometimes
[03:22] <JayRoe> Can someone tell me how I disable metacity on my second monitor?
[03:22] <root__> Hello guys, i want to wipe out my 160 gb disk, as quicly as posible. Shred is too slow for me. Help me :)
[03:22] <Geminias> use dd
[03:23] <rolfen> root__ dd yup
[03:23] <summer_s4> root__: Do you want os?
[03:23] <summer_s4> root__: or are you willing to install new os?
[03:23] <togr> root__,  define "wipe out"
[03:23] <fevel> rjune: is it easy to set up a vm??
[03:23] <root__> yes i will install kubuntu
[03:24] <Geminias> wipe out means delete all the data on it..
[03:24] <root__> By wipe out i mean tosay replace data on disk with zeros.
[03:24] <rjune> fevel: yea
[03:24] <rjune> I'm having keyboard problems right now though
[03:24] <togr> root__, if you're going to make a clean installation, you only have to delete the partition table
[03:24] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: fevel It's an open source programme that works. Better... nah.
[03:24] <gyaresu> fevel: Not yet...
[03:24] <bullgard4> /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[03:25] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: If you've got up to kdm/gdm then your xserver is configured right. It must be something else.
[03:25] <togr> if you want to be absolutely sure that none of the old data can be recovered, probably shred is what you need, even if it is slow
[03:25] <root__> Thing is that i had problem with my partition table before, and disk does not have bad blocks. So i was planning to wipe out everything
[03:25] <Geminias> root__, if you want to actually erase all data "replace all with zeros" it is going to take a long time regardless
[03:25] <Geminias> of which program you use
[03:25] <Geminias> because it depends on the speed of you hard drive alone
[03:25] <root__> :(
[03:25] <togr> use fdisk, erase your partition table
[03:25] <Genomsaren> I thought the same, because of this I didnt tell that first
[03:25] <Geminias> the head has to trace every byte of memory
[03:26] <Geminias> so no amount of programming logic can speed that up
[03:26] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: can it be a security problem?
[03:26] <root__> Actually shred is running right now. Too sloooooow. Whatever still thank you guys. :) :)
[03:26] <fevel> gyaresu: it looks pretty nice though...I always prefer open source...do you know what lacks in virtual box??
[03:26] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Your errors from Xorg.log are general and not show-stoppers. Look for something in /var/log/syslog & /var/log/messages
[03:26] <Geminias> np
[03:27] <Geminias> i use killdisc personally
[03:27] <rolfen> root__ if you want to be sure your data cannot be recovered use shred or the dd command i gave you, otherwise use fdisk or gparted
[03:27] <gyaresu> fevel: Runs xp for me. Was some messing around cause of a bug but seems very similar. I have lot's of boxes so not a real need for virtual machine.

[03:39] <Dante123> Hi All I have ubuntu on  a Soyo SY-P4VTE mobo with a 2.94 mhz Celeron and 512 mb of ram running at 333 mhz.........should I add the 256 mb stick I have which only runs at 266 mhz (will the two work together??? mobo says pc2100 works in this machine) or will the gain in ram be offset by the fact that both will be running at the slower 266 mhz speed?
[03:39] <valehru> harlan_, check the rendering.....also go to #beryl
[03:39] <magnetron> brizi: use synaptic
[03:39] <JayRoe> what program does the taskbar belong to? Gnome or Metacity?
[03:39] <Seoke> magnetron, So do you recommend GAMBAS then? I'm willing to learn the language
[03:39] <brizi> so /usr/src/blah blah blah
[03:40] <bullgard4> _Lucretia_: I am not a member of a group 'users'. I am using Ubuntu 7.04.
[03:40] <magnetron> harlan_, valehru: #ubuntu-effects
[03:40] <gyaresu> brizi: Modules are drivers not already included in the (monolithic) kernel. So you will need to recompile you kernel modules that you download with kernel source.
[03:40] <gyaresu> brizi: /usr/src/ indeed.
[03:40] <brizi> k thanks
[03:40] <_Lucretia_> bullgard4: it's strange as that group does exist
[03:41] <gyaresu> brizi: symlinking the current kernel source to 'linux'
[03:41] <harlan_> valehru how  do u check rendering
[03:41] <Seoke> magnetron, So do you recommend GAMBAS then? I'm willing to learn the language
[03:41] <magnetron> Seoke: try it, or python
[03:41] <Seoke> magnetron, Which would be better for writing games and small other applications
[03:41] <Thunderhit> I deleted the folder .opera from my user directory, but it isnt in the trash? where can i find it? i only chose move to trash
[03:42] <Dante123> Hi All I have ubuntu on a Soyo SY-P4VTE mobo with a 2.94 mhz Celeron and 512 mb of ram running at 333 mhz.........should I add the 256 mb stick I have which only runs at 266 mhz (will the two work together??? mobo says pc2100 works in this machine) or will the gain in ram be offset by the fact that both will be running at the slower 266 mhz speed?
[03:42] <magnetron> Seoke: python
[03:42] <spikeb> Dante123, going from 512 to 768 isn'
[03:43] <Seoke> magnetron, Thanks any places you recommend to learn the language? I think I'll go with python most likely
[03:43] <spikeb> Dante123, isnt enough of a gain to sacrifice speed
[03:43] <younghacker> is it possible to import an XML document into postgre
[03:43] <bullgard4> _Lucretia_: Neither as a common user nor as an adminstrator I am a member of a group 'users' in Ubuntu 7.04. I forgot the command to list all group that exist. Can you help me?
[03:43] <gyaresu> Dante123: http://www.memtest.org/
[03:43] <genii> Dante123: You can usually mix ram speeds but like spike said 512 to 768 isn't really much of a gain in capacity vs speed in this case
[03:43] <gyaresu> Dante123: Plug it in and see how it goes.
[03:43] <younghacker> is it possible to import an XML document into a postgreSQL database?
[03:43] <_Lucretia_> what should the proper permissions be on a subversion repos? I've just tarred up my old one from my old drive and upacked it, I'd rather not have to have my username as owner of these files, I'd rather the group I was in controlled access to it
[03:44] <bullgard4> Pici: What is the audience of #ubuntu-kernel?
[03:44] <crippler> hi all
[03:44] <Pici> bullgard4: ubuntu kernel devs
[03:44] <shirish> guys I had installed a driver by sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem_<IP_ADDRESS>full_k2.6.20_16_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb
[03:44] <magnetron> Seoke: install the package idle-python2.5 and yahoo for some guides.... there are tons of them
[03:44] <shirish> now how do I uninstall that driver?
[03:45] <younghacker> is it possible to import an XML document into postgres database?
[03:45] <Thunderhit> ok, tried it again, removed everything in the trash bin and deleted a .folder in my home/user directory, it shows that the trash bin has something in it, but when I click on it, it shows an empty window, nothing in it??
[03:45] <magnetron> shirish: with synaptic package manager, search for the package and uninstall it
[03:45] <Falstius> I have a dual monitor setup and I want a VNC client that will properly full screen to one monitor, leaving the other alone (as most programs do when in full screen).  Real vnc's vncviewer takes up both monitors and positions the active area in the middle.  tsclient tries to only use one monitor, but it fails, loses the mouse and keyboard, and I have to kill it from a console.  Any suggestions?
[03:45] <younghacker> the database is already created
[03:45] <bullgard4> Pici: I am no kernel developer. But I will dare listen to that channel before I post there anything.
[03:45] <gyaresu> shirish: 'apt-cache search hsfmodem' 'apt-get remove hfs-blah-whatever'
[03:45] <Dante123> well actually i tried it once......and it locked up on me.....so if the gain in ram is offset by loss of speed in this case I will stay with 512...thanks for advice
[03:46] <Pici> bullgard4: I just think the question you are asking is over the heads of most of the people here.  Including me :)
[03:46] <Dante123> thanks genii and gyaresu
[03:46] <bullgard4> Pici: I see.
[03:46] <Dante123> and spikeb
[03:46] <gyaresu> Falstius: What's the client OS?
[03:47] <gyaresu> Dante123: np
[03:47] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, Is there a package called dpkg-source
[03:47] <genii> shirish: Since you manually installed it with dpkg, if you find apt-get command cannot remove it, use dpkg again to remove it eg: sudo dpkg -r <pkgname here>
[03:47] <Sonic1> anyone know how to get a ATI TV Wonder VE to have sound?
[03:47] <Falstius> gyaresu: you mean the server os?  It is linux.  Both sides are linux (the server is a RHEL3 clone, client is Ubuntu Feisty)
[03:47] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: it's part of dpkg
[03:47] <Lounge> i'm wondering about about the icons on the ubuntu desktop.. @ defualt they get aligned to the left side. is there a way to get them to auto align to the right side like os x?
[03:47] <togr> bullgard4, repeat your q please
[03:48] <Falstius> bullgard4: if you want the list of groups, you could just cat /etc/groups
[03:48] <Malachi> I desperately, desperately need some help.
[03:48] <gyaresu> sangeetha: 'apropos dpkg-source'
[03:48] <Malachi> My job is on the line.
[03:48] <shirish> thanx all, actually synaptic did the trick, I wanted to purge (including configuration files) :)
[03:48] <Malachi> http://www.venturecake.com/a-simple-guide-to-using-your-existing-windows-install-apps-in-ubuntu/
[03:48] <younghacker> i desperately need help as well
[03:48] <bullgard4> togr:  /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[03:49] <younghacker> if anyone is skilled with postgreSQL please help me
[03:49] <magnetron> ask your question and we might possibly be able to help you
[03:49] <Malachi> Read that. I did it all, but I accidentally started in Linux. And it ate my files.
[03:49] <Malachi> Now I can't start Ubuntu.

[03:49] <timewriter> hi
[03:49] <liuchenhao> hello ,everyone
[03:49] <gyaresu> Falstius: I forward X sessions. Now that's the bomb. Edit gdm.conf allow tcp connects (port 6000), client runs 'xhost +'
[03:49] <timewriter> what is ubuntu studio ?
[03:50] <Falstius> Malachi: if your job is one the line, you may want to call in your local Linux professional to fix your problem.
[03:50] <spikeb> timewriter, ubuntu for artists
[03:50] <beatnik> hello, can you help me about sharing internet; i have a laptop which is conneting with wireless and i have a desktop.
[03:50] <sangeetha> gyaresu, I am getting command not found if i give dpkg-source
[03:50] <togr> bullgard4, I presume you have kernel sources installed then
[03:50] <Malachi> Falstius: I am my only local Linux professional.
[03:50] <Malachi> =\
[03:50] <timewriter> it is official ?
[03:50] <Falstius> gyaresu: forwarding x-sessions is less stable and requires more bandwidth than VNC.
[03:50] <gyaresu> Falstius: I run movies from my main machine that's plugged into stereo with X going to laptop into data projector.
[03:50] <bullgard4> Falstius: The proper command would be cat /etc/group
[03:50] <spikeb> timewriter, no.
[03:50] <gyaresu> Falstius: Remote is it?
[03:50] <Thunderhit> Want to know, how do I uninstall gaim in ubuntu? when I want to remove it, it says it also has to remove nautilus-sendto and ubuntu-desktop, and I think think removing ubuntu-desktop is good, isnt it?
[03:50] <spikeb> timewriter, or perhaps the best answer would be "not yet"
[03:51] <gyaresu> sangeetha: 'apropos'
[03:51] <Falstius> gyaresu: yes, telecommuting sort of thing.
[03:51] <genii> gyaresu: If you are interested in remote desktop apps perhaps check out FreeNX , it is very good
[03:51] <timewriter> thanks
[03:51] <timewriter> im not gonna install it
[03:51] <gyaresu> genii: cheers. will do.
[03:51] <beatnik> ello, can you help me about sharing internet; i have a laptop which is conneting with wireless and i have a desktop.
[03:51] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, should i install anyother package for dpkg-source to work
[03:51] <gyaresu> genii: It's on a lot of livecd's. (Never used it)
[03:51] <gyaresu> Falstius: Sorry then. Not very helpful ;)
[03:51] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: no.  if it's not working, you're calling it wrong
[03:52] <anachronik> https://skypecasts.skype.com/skypecasts/skypecast/detailed.html?id_talk=3131137&message=new_talk_created#join --> Gdrive and goobuntu skypecast
[03:52] <rolfen> Malachi: what do you mean you accidentally started in linux?
[03:52] <genii> gyaresu: I find the speed is much more tolerable than VNC or X forwarding
[03:52] <rafaelscj> How can I fix it? > http://br.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz: Sub-processo gzip retornou um cdigo de erro (1)
[03:52] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, this is the command that i gave:dpkg-source -x iceweasel_<IP_ADDRESS>-2.dsc
[03:52] <akos> hello! one-liner: how do I change the mixer to be used?  I guess the OSS mixer is used, becuase if I mute the alsa mixer, sound is still being played (terrible quality), but if I mute the oss mixer, it stops playing
[03:52] <scorp123> Malachi: next time use VMware or VirtualBox .... :-/
[03:52] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: which is correct, yes.
[03:52] <MTecknology> Can somebody tell me how often this cron job SHOULD run? I wanted every saturday at midnight     * 0 * * 6 /usr/local/sbin/backup-exec weekly > ~/backup.log
[03:52] <gyaresu> genii: You're talking to a guy on irssi/screen/unicode-rxvt and this is my desktop...
[03:53] <togr> bullgard4, go to PM?
[03:53] <sangeetha> gyaresu, it is asking apropos what
[03:53] <magnetron> rolfen: started the host os with VMware accessing the physical disk
[03:53] <genii> gyaresu: :)
[03:53] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: as for if/where it's failing, i couldnt tell you without a pastebin of the output
[03:53] <bullgard4> _Lucretia_: Let me repeat: I am using Ubuntu 7.04. In Ubuntu 7.04 the group 'users' exists per default. But I am no member of that group.
[03:53] <gyaresu> sangeetha: I only linked it as a cool command to find out what may be installed. 'man apropos'
[03:53] <_Lucretia_> bullgard4: yeah. I got that
[03:53] <timewriter> anyone knows how to replace the ubuntu logo left upper corner of gnome ?
[03:54] <magnetron> Malachi: it wasn't a good guide you were following, the official ubuntu documentation is better and safer
[03:54] <timewriter> on Applications tab
[03:54] <bullgard4> togr: To whom should I direct a PM?
[03:54] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, bash: dpkg-source: command not found ,this is the output
[03:54] <timewriter> i want the gnome logo there
[03:54] <scorp123> Malachi: I second that. That was a very bad idea.
[03:54] <fredddy> thx wbadger for the answer (ut2004 alt-tab) does this work with other games to ?
[03:54] <Malachi> magnetron: It was. It worked perfectly, I just ran out of the room and forgot to switch to Windows.
[03:54] <Malachi> So it booted Linux on Linux and ate my files.
[03:54] <Malachi> At least, some of them.
[03:54] <togr> bullgard4, to me?  This channels is somewhat noisy at the moment
[03:54] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: then i have no idea.  you wouldnt have removed dpkg, surely...
[03:55] <Malachi> I'm on Windows trying to see what can be recovered.
[03:55] <magnetron> Malachi: if it was such a perfect guide, this wouldn't have happened
[03:55] <rolfen> Malachi: just curious... why would linux do such a thing?
[03:55] <beatnik> Hello, can you help me about sharing internet; i have a laptop which is conneting with wireless and i have a desktop.
[03:56] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, i have installed dpkg
[03:56] <Malachi> rolfen: I have no idea.
[03:56] <rolfen> Malachi: anyway... dont want to bother you with my questions
[03:56] <togr> does python not have an interface to 'getgrent'?
[03:56] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: then i have no idea
[03:56] <Malachi> magnetron: You're right.
[03:56] <magnetron> rolfen, Malachi: actually it was vmware that was accessing the drive
[03:56] <JayRoe> can someone tell me how I permanently remove the gnome panels on my secondary screen?
[03:57] <gyaresu> beatnik: You want to share the wireless from your laptop to your desktop? But you don't have a router?
[03:57] <Seoke> I'm installing the new pythong 2.5.1 and the makefile was created but when I type make it says command not found what am I doing wrong?
[03:57] <Seoke> python*
[03:57] <genii> beatnik: There is much help and info on that subject here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370
[03:57] <beatnik> ping
[03:57] <magnetron> Seoke: no, you should not install it from source
[03:58] <magnetron> Seoke: use add/remove programs to install software in ubuntu
[03:58] <rolfen> Malachi: do you want to recover your data files or rebuild the linux installation?
[03:58] <Seoke> magnetron, But the source is newer then the add/remove programs one =P
[03:58] <Seoke> magnetron, The newest one in there is 2.4
[03:58] <magnetron> Seoke: and will give you a headache (and us too)
[03:58] <Malachi> rolfen: Rebuild, if possible.
[03:58] <gyaresu> genii: Nice! I couldn't quite face explaining that :)
[03:58] <Seoke> magnetron, Alright lol I'll stick with what I have installed now =P
[03:58] <Malachi> rolfen: But I'm moving all I can to a different PC.
[03:59] <Malachi> It seems my /home folder is intact.
[03:59] <Seoke> magnetron, Do you use irssi for your irc?
[03:59] <rgl> how can I change the IP address where inetd listens at?
[03:59] <bullgard4> togr: If you don't mind give me your PM address, and I will send you my question to that address.
[03:59] <scorp123> rgl: for which service??
[04:00] <rgl> scorp123, for example, ftp.
[04:00] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: Hi again
[04:00] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: I think I have found something
[04:00] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Hey. Got desktop?
[04:01] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Drumroll...
[04:01] <scorp123> rgl: why would you do that?   Isn't /msg allowed?
[04:01] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Really long drumroll...
[04:01] <rgl> scorp123, it does not depend on the ftp config file.  since its inetd that creates the listen socket.
[04:01] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: gdm[16146] : gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: [[deadly] ]  X [[error] ]  - :0 [[restarting] ]                                               [[] ]  are translated words
[04:02] <erisco> how do I put multiple commands into an application launcher?
[04:02] <bullgard4> togr: Yes, /msg is allowed here.
[04:02] <rolfen> Malachi: i dont know... i would have reinstalled. alternatively, if you haven't worked on that partition since that happened, you can try to use data recovery software to recover your linux filesystem... but i wouldnt bet on the system working after that... some files might get corrupted
[04:02] <scorp123> rgl: if you know it better than why do you ask???? :-)
[04:02] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Install kdm and see if that works. I've got kdm because of silly gdm faults from ages ago. (And I use fluxbox).
[04:02] <rolfen> Malachi: for data recovery i use rstudio
[04:02] <Cyber_Stalker> hey guys
[04:02] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: No difference (not really).
[04:03] <Genomsaren> ok
[04:03] <rgl> scorp123, becuase I don't known how to make inetd listen at a specific IP address....
[04:03] <Cyber_Stalker> i remember i could get the latest ubuntu cd's sent to my house
[04:03] <Cyber_Stalker> can i still do that?
[04:03] <younghacker> can anyone help me with postgreSQL
[04:03] <Pici> Cyber_Stalker: Yes.
[04:03] <Pici> !shipit | Cyber_Stalker
[04:03] <ubotu> Cyber_Stalker: shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[04:03] <magnetron> Seoke: in feisty, i use 2.5 installed with add/remove
[04:03] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: do you mean KDE I have gnome and KDE in my system...
[04:03] <magnetron> erisco: you write a shell script

[04:04] <erisco> magnetron, that is something I unfortunately do not know how to do... but perhaps I can write something in python
[04:04] <younghacker> can anyone help me with postgreSQL

[04:04] <Bingoo> so,is there anyway to disable ACPI after install Ubuntu Feisty?
[04:04] <EHLOHIM> do you know the command to see the CPU specification?
[04:04] <younghacker> can anyone help me with postgreSQL
[04:04] <Pici> younghacker: Ask the question.

[04:05] <EHLOHIM> scorp123: and about the Hard drive specification plz
[04:05] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: mmm. Dbus system errors eh? That's new. Try kdm first me thinks. Easy fixes are good.
[04:05] <MrKeuner> hi all, I am mounitng a flash/usb stick/drive, whatever its general name is, without any problem. Check the contents and then right click and select eject however, Gnome tell me that it cannot eject the drive, however it looks like it does. I could not locate the related bug, if one exists. Any comments?
[04:05] <daan> eum I just removed all the groups from my user, so I can't sudo anymore... is there a way to fix this?
[04:05] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: ok thanks
[04:05] <Bingoo> because it seems that it doesn't work/start up if ACPI is on
[04:05] <gyaresu> younghacker: Have you tried the postgres chat room?
[04:05] <bullgard4> Bingoo: What comes to my mind is, you could deinstall all ACPI related kernel modules. But I  do not think that this advisable.
[04:06] <gyaresu> daan: You can start in 'recovery mode'. Option at the boot menu.
[04:06] <Becha_> !ask Tcl-dev
[04:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask tcl-dev - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:06] <daan> gyaresu: Am I automatically root then?
[04:06] <Bingoo> but it doesn't start either
[04:06] <napster> hi. when i watch mpeg files and stuff they are very small on the screen and when i make it full screen it stays very small. wat can i do?
[04:06] <Bingoo> i mean on recovery mode

[04:08] <aa^way> hello, how can i detect firewire hardware? I just installed FireWire hardware but no notice came up. How i could see is it plugged or not?

[04:08] <gyaresu> daan I'm old and probably wrong. I strip out most of the ubuntu stuff and drive it like debian.  Is there a way to strip her down to bare bones without reinstalling???
