[11:26] <Bassetts> are there any good bittorrent programs that compare at all to azureus that do not crash
[11:26] <th1> drogomir, what ubuntu version are you using?
[11:26] <emman101> magnetron: sorry I can't find any # before home
[11:26] <modconfig> gdb: so, rhythmbox burns songs in spx and then encodes them into mp3???
[11:27] <Sepero> Bassetts: You can install azureus on Ubuntu. It's written in java.
[11:27] <magnetron> emman101: sorry it's ;
[11:27] <Bassetts> Sepero, it crashes all the time
[11:27] <gdb> I don't know, I don't use rhythmbox.  But if you're seeing audio files with an spx extension, they're likely speex encoded.
[11:27] <Bassetts> Deluge looks good
[11:27] <RAH66> were can I find a list of programs that will work on ubuntu that I currently use in windows?
[11:28] <Sepero> Bassetts: Try ktorrent?

[11:30] <RAH66> can photoshop run in feisty?
[11:30] <Bassetts> Sepero, gtktorrent looks good, now know as deluge

[11:31] <RAH66> starting up ubuntu for the first time today so I wana prepare myself
[11:31] <RAH66> <<< newbie
[11:31] <RAH66> lol
[11:31] <Sepero> Bassetts: These are what I found, search synaptic for "torrent": freeloader gnome-btdownload rtorrent
[11:31] <soundray> RAH66: what do you use Photoshop for?
[11:31] <jlulian38> SLEEPY TIEMS
[11:31] <th1> drogomir, my X command line is much different from yours. Mine is started by kdm.. is yours the same if you start it by kdm/gdm?
[11:32] <RAH66> I geuss the best way to get allong is to run both xp and ubuntu to learn?
[11:33] <th1> drogomir, mine is "/usr/bin/X -br -nolisten tcp :0 vt7 -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-bu6f5P"
[11:33] <soundray> RAH66: in my opinion the best way is to erase Windows and dive into the Free Software world.
[11:33] <modconfig> i swear, i tell it to burn as mp3, and don't have any other formats active...yet it still burns as ogg.
[11:33] <jc-denton> hi all
[11:33] <Sepero> RAH66: You might be better off installing Gimp on XP, and using it for both.
[11:33] <jc-denton> i installed then new version of skpe
[11:33] <Bassetts> hmm, the deluge website says deluge is in ubuntu repos, but i cant find it
[11:33] <jc-denton> Fatal: Cannot mix incompatible Qt libraries
[11:33] <jc-denton> and it does not work (see error above)
[11:33] <jc-denton> google didn't help so far..

[11:34] <norealgravity> im getting sick and tired of window viruses! has linux ever got a virus ever?
[11:34] <Sepero> Bassetts: Make sure you have universe and multiverse repositories  enabled.
[11:34] <Bassetts> soundray, their site says "As of Feisty, Deluge is in Ubuntu's universe repository. DO NOT INSTALL THIS VERSION"
[11:34] <Bassetts> Sepero, i do
[11:35] <th1> RAH66, if you can use Gimp instead of photoshop it is easier for you. But it is possible to run the Adobe apps inside of Linux, see here: http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-adobe-photoshop-cs2-on-ubuntu-10-steps/
[11:35] <RAH66> awesome
[11:35] <soundray> Bassetts: it was in edgy. It seems to have been removed. Not sure what happened there.
[11:35] <sahil> how do i get the trash bin on my desktop?
[11:36] <th1> RAH66, I have used both Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign on linux.
[11:36] <Sepero> Bassetts: Yeah, it doesn't show on my repos either. Perhaps the page is wrong.
[11:36] <norealgravity> someone walk me through partition hard drive so i can install ubuntu with linux?

[11:49] <RAH66> will I be able to upgrade my xp to ubuntu directly?
[11:50] <emman101> magnetron: what particular line?
[11:50] <neii> how to connect to netware server ???? pls advise
[11:50] <ziroday> soundray: yeah but i have since restarted
[11:50] <cotyrothery> NForc3r: go ahead and restart with ubuntu
[11:50] <NForc3r> im going to in a sec
[11:50] <th1> RAH66, you have to decide if you want to keep XP or just want to have Ubuntu but generally yes
[11:50] <magnetron> emman101: 214
[11:50] <ziroday> soundray: could that have been it?
[11:50] <NForc3r> does anyone else here notice that beryl's site is down?
[11:50] <th1> RAH66, if you keep XP as well you can still access your files and stuff from inside Ubuntu if that is what you mean
[11:50] <emman101> magnetron: ngek
[11:50] <anathematic> hi i've just slipped and disabled my desktop account to have root rights how do i fix it?
[11:50] <emman101> magnetron: sorry I must have included a space
[11:50] <soundray> ziroday: log out, start a failsafe session and delete .nautilus from there. Otherwise nautilus recreates the original when it exits (I believe)
[11:51] <th1> NForc3r, ask in #beryl
[11:51] <ziroday> soundray: kk thanks will try
[11:51] <RAH66> cool so will ubuntu be able to run allongside xp?
[11:51] <NForc3r> thanx
[11:51] <emman101> magnetron: so only the home line 214 or the rest of the group inside home?
[11:51] <neii> how to login to  netware server ???? pls advise
[11:51] <th1> RAH66, yes it will, but it needs a separate partition. but the installer can take care of that for you.
[11:51] <magnetron> emman101: yes, remove the ; in front of those lines
[11:52] <RAH66> yeah i understand that
[11:52] <cotyrothery> Not that i want windows but i tried to install it again just so i could take a look at it again and at the end of the install it went to create a user partion and said it could not create the partion! Could that be because linux was on my hard drive or something
[11:52] <th1> if you want to run ubuntu at the *same time* as XP thne you need to install it inside a Virtual Machine.. see http://haacked.com/archive/2007/05/06/installing-ubuntu-on-virtual-pc-for-windows-lovers.aspx
[11:53] <RAH66> kk i'll check it out but performance wise I dont rate this is the best option
[11:53] <th1> RAH66, it's not but it is great if you just want to try ubuntu without changing your setup :)
[11:53] <GeekMaster1> OK, I have given up on installing VMWare. I JUST CAN'T. I was wondering i fyou guys could help me with ONE other thing. I went into my /usr/share/pixmaps/ folder and I manually replaced a all my icons accidently with a bunch of LARGER icons. Now no matter what icon package I install I get those big icons. Is there ANY way to get my default Ubuntu icons back in /usr/share/pixmaps?
[11:53] <modconfig> okay, now using grip instead....works like a charm.
[11:53] <emman101> magnetron: nah , same error.. The folder content could not be displayed
[11:54] <magnetron> emman101: you need to restart samba
[11:54] <Frogzoo> GeekMaster1: much easier to d/l from vmware's site - that works painlessly
[11:54] <RAH66> lol yeah but I wana start using ubuntu to its full potential
[11:54] <Sh3r1ff> GeekMaster1: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-from-canonical-commercial-repository-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[11:54] <GeekMaster1> I will try that
[11:54] <hugolp> hi
[11:54] <th1> GeekMaster1, did you replace ALL of the icons?
[11:54] <emman101> magnetron:how? can I do that without using webmin?
[11:54] <GeekMaster1> ALL
[11:54] <GeekMaster1> Yes
[11:55] <hugolp> anyone knows how to do a right click menu in the gnome background to get a menu like enlightment?
[11:55] <th1> GeekMaster1, well that sort of sucks because they are all in separate packages
[11:55] <magnetron> emman101: i will not answer any questions about webmin
[11:55] <GeekMaster1> How do you guys higlight someone's name like that to talk to them directly BTW?
[11:55] <cotyrothery> Put in there game GeekMaster1
[11:55] <Sh3r1ff> GeekMaster1: just type there name ;)
[11:55] <GeekMaster1> So there is NO way to get the icons back?
[11:55] <modconfig> GeekMaster1, by putting their name in the writing
[11:55] <cotyrothery> name
[11:56] <Frogzoo> GeekMaster1: only be reinstalling every relevant package
[11:56] <magnetron> emman101: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[11:56] <emman101> magnetron: ok then, how to reststart samba using a terminal?
[11:56] <emman101> ok
[11:56] <Zorlin> Anyone need help?
[11:56] <cotyrothery> gordonjcp: lol
[11:56] <th1> GeekMaster1, you can do it like this:
[11:56] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: tell you what you could do
[11:56] <th1> it is a bit tricky
[11:56] <cotyrothery> Zorlin: yea me
[11:57] <Sh3r1ff> emman101: /etc/init.d/samba restart
[11:57] <soundray> GeekMaster1: you could probably copy some of the pixmaps from a running live CD
[11:57] <gordonjcp> hang on, let's see what th1 suggests
[11:57] <gordonjcp> soundray: good call
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> Ahhhhhhhh
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> Good idea
[11:57] <Zorlin> cotyrothery: What can I do for ya
[11:57] <gordonjcp> soundray: actually you could just mount the CD and copy them across
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> I'll do that
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> Copy them from the live CD
[11:57] <gordonjcp> I have deja-vu
[11:57] <th1> GeekMaster1, its two commands
[11:57] <soundray> gordonjcp: could you? I haven't checked.
[11:57] <th1> GeekMaster1, that is not a good solution
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> th1 ok
[11:57] <gordonjcp> soundray: yeah, there's nothing "magic" about the livecd
[11:57] <th1> GeekMaster1, gimme a sec I can't paste into this window ;)
[11:58] <Itr0nic> anyone no a good mp3 player for ubuntu?
[11:58] <GeekMaster1> What shoulk dI do in your opinion TH1?
[11:58] <Sh3r1ff> Itr0nic: rhythmbox is standard in the install
[11:58] <soundray> !player | Itr0nic
[11:58] <ubotu> Itr0nic: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[11:58] <gordonjcp> soundray: it will just appear as a mounted CD, so you'd find them in /media/cdrom/usr/share/pixmaps (or similar)
[11:58] <cotyrothery> Zorlin: well i wanted to try and reinstall windows for a little while and when i got to the end of the reinstall it tried to creat a user partion but faild to do so could that be because i had linux on my hard drives
[11:59] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: you could use a for loop and convert to scale the images back down ;-)
[11:59] <Itr0nic> ty
[11:59] <modconfig> cotyrothery, no..sounds like a bad cd
[11:59] <GeekMaster1> gordonjcp that would require me knowing EVERY icon that is scalled
[11:59] <cotyrothery> its a recovery cd
[11:59] <guillem101> How can I change the default keyboard layout?
[11:59] <soundray> GeekMaster1: unless you knew how to use find
[11:59] <Sh3r1ff> guillem101: preferences, keyboard
[11:59] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: no
[11:59] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: hence why I said "for loop"
[11:59] <th1> GeekMaster1, ok here: http://pastebin.ca/573878
[12:00] <magnetron> guillem101: System > preferences >keyboard
[12:00] <GeekMaster1> One second. I'm gonna pull up that link
[12:00] <GeekMaster1> Thanks guys
[12:00] <GeekMaster1> BRB
[12:00] <guillem101> Sh3r1ff, magnetron, OK, but I mean the way that the installer does at the very beginning (all users, console, etc)
[12:00] <modconfig> cotyrothery, well, you still shouldn't have probs with it b/c another os was on the disk
[12:00] <soundray> th1: I like your solution
[12:00] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: if you made a copy of the pixmaps directory, you could do something like "for i in *; do convert $i -resize 16x16 out/$i; done;
[12:01] <th1> thanks soundray :)
[12:01] <Didaskal0s> It would be kewl if everyone in this channel entered in a message at the same time
[12:01] <Didaskal0s> like three line message, all at the same time, that'd be sweet
[12:01] <gordonjcp> it would be cool if everyone in this channel stabbed people who say "kewl" in the eye at the same time
[12:01] <modconfig> haha
[12:01] <Sergo> hello, anyone know how to add an command line option to an "Make Link"
[12:01] <Didaskal0s> I've been saying kewl since I was 13, I aint gonna stop now
[12:02] <xenex> lol.
[12:02] <Sergo> i want to lunch hl.exe with follow option -nomaster -game cstrike but i don't know how..
[12:02] <soundray> gordonjcp: while they're at it, they should do the same to people who say 'lol' ;)
[12:02] <gordonjcp> Didaskal0s: and you're what, 14 now?
[12:02] <GeekMaster1> th1 did you get my PM?
[12:02] <guillem101> Sergo, you mean "ln -s origin destionation" ?
[12:02] <Didaskal0s> yeah gordon, 14, actually 21, married, and have my own place.
[12:02] <Didaskal0s> *shakes head*
[12:02] <th1> GeekMaster1, btw my command only does it for png icons.. you can also do it for xpm icons etc. whatever you destroyed :)
[12:02] <Didaskal0s> oh, and shitty car.
[12:02] <GeekMaster1> I'm getting "dpkg: /usr/share/pixmaps/palm-pilot.png not found.
[12:02] <GeekMaster1> " everywhere with the command that you gave me
[12:03] <emman101> magnetron:hey I could display my work group anymore after restarting samba.. this is worst nnow
[12:03] <soundray> Didaskal0s: wow, how did you manage to keep your youthful naivety?
[12:03] <gordonjcp> Didaskal0s: and you still say things like "kewl"?
[12:03] <th1> GeekMaster1, that is just those that it can't find a package for
[12:03] <GeekMaster1> th1 It seems NONE of the icons were found
[12:03] <Didaskal0s> yeah, I say kewl....is that a problem?
[12:03] <th1> GeekMaster1, so the "replace-packages" file is empty?
[12:03] <zerro> hi is there some one that will help med with a littel networking problem ??
[12:03] <gordonjcp> Didaskal0s: only if you want to be taken seriously
[12:03] <GeekMaster1> th1 I don't know
[12:03] <Didaskal0s> And why do you care what I say, got anything better to do than pick a part my spelling of a single word.
[12:03] <th1> have a look
[12:03] <Sepero> GeekMaster1: PM me and I can help you out. You have a lot of problems.
[12:04] <gordonjcp> Didaskal0s: if you're not fussed about that, then go right ahead
[12:04] <gnomefreak> Didaskal0s: and gordonjcp if you would like to continue with this topic join #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:04] <gnomefreak> oh and hte bickering needs to stop
[12:04] <emman101> magnetron: don't know what to do anymore
[12:04] <emman101> magnetron: it freak out my server
[12:04] <Didaskal0s> ...yeah that's what I want to do, continue conversation about my long time use of the word kewl.
[12:04] <GeekMaster1> th1 I just PMd you
[12:04] <GeekMaster1> oops
[12:05] <th1> GeekMaster1, I didn't see any PM
[12:05] <emman101> magnetron: I guess this is something to do with [home]
[12:05] <magnetron> emman101: in that case, comment the lines again
[12:05] <Sergo> guillem101: i don't know... i want to add an option "-nomaster -game cstrike" to an shortcut but don't know how
[12:05] <GeekMaster1> Supero I didnt see that it was you that said to PM you
[12:05] <GeekMaster1> Supero I just did
[12:05] <RAH66> yay 1 more hour then me have ubuntu
[12:06] <emman101> magnetron: waaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[12:06] <Vall-k> hi! I need help please... How i can send a value from HTML Form only with a <select>???
[12:06] <Sergo> in windows i could add this option near the name of shorcut in proprietes..
[12:06] <magnetron> emman101: i have to go now
[12:06] <beasty_> hi
[12:06] <emman101> magnetron: what about my network?
[12:06] <th1> GeekMaster1, I still suggest you use my commands that I pasted, run it once for png and once for xpm if you replaced them all, and hten it should have fixed most of them
[12:06] <beasty_> can someone tell me the diff between ubuntu-server and regular ubuntu ?
[12:06] <th1> if there are still some left then it is because they are not in any package.
[12:06] <magnetron> emman101: comment the lines again, add the ; in front of those lines and restart samba
[12:07] <HairyDude> trying to upgrade from hoary to dapper... can anyone point me towards a breezy repo?
[12:07] <soundray> !server > beasty_, please read the private message from ubotu
[12:07] <magnetron> emman101: i see you added a lot of other to your smb.conf, maybe that is the problem?
[12:07] <th1> and GeekMaster1 it is safest to only run scripts and commands that people paste to you in public, especially if you don't know exactly what they do.
[12:07] <soundray> HairyDude: those are closed now. It's better to backup and do a fresh install.
[12:08] <GeekMaster1> th1 this is what I got with you command
[12:08] <GeekMaster1> http://www.geekdum.com/forums/gallery/data/501/Screenshot.png
[12:08] <GeekMaster1> Please see the screenshot
[12:08] <beasty_> thx soundray :)
[12:08] <th1> GeekMaster1, you may get a lot of errors from the first command but that doesn't matter
[12:08] <GeekMaster1> th1 http://www.geekdum.com/forums/gallery/data/501/Screenshot.png
[12:08] <emman101> magnetron: maybe.. heheh.. is it illegal?
[12:08] <guillem101> Sergo, that is not a link in the Unix sense :-P Use the last tab at the properties of the icon.
[12:08] <th1> GeekMaster1, that's ok
[12:08] <th1> it just means it couldn't find packages for those icons
[12:08] <RAH66> will feisty partition my hard drives without messing up windows?
[12:09] <th1> GeekMaster1, when you run the second command it will replace those that it could find packages for
[12:09] <th1> try it and see what happens
[12:09] <GeekMaster1> OK
[12:09] <th1> ah GeekMaster1
[12:09] <GeekMaster1> Thanks so much
[12:09] <th1> you have to be root also
[12:09] <soundray> RAH66: yes, it's quite good at that. You should still have a backup in case of power failures and the like.
[12:09] <GeekMaster1> I'm gonna try that
[12:09] <sahil> how can i navigate to my home folder in the terminal?
[12:09] <th1> so do "sudo -s" before running the second command
[12:09] <soundray> sahil: with 'cd'
[12:09] <sahil> soundray but to the home folder
[12:10] <RAH66> cool 40 minutes then my ubuntu journey starts hehehehe
[12:10] <sahil> cd /home?
[12:10] <gnomefreak> soundray: you should be there by default
[12:10] <soundray> sahil: that will take you to your home folder
[12:10] <gnomefreak> sahil: or just type cd
[12:10] <soundray> sahil: no, that's one above your home folder
[12:10] <gnomefreak> sahil: name@pcname$ is your home dir
[12:10] <RAH66> it supports raid?
[12:10] <sahil> hmmm
[12:11] <wols> RAH66: ise software raid
[12:11] <th1> GeekMaster1, you got that part? do "sudo -s" before you run the commands. the prompt should end with a "#" instead of a "$"
[12:11] <sahil> gnomefreak, what i am trying to do is change the ubuntu logo in the menu bar to a apple
[12:11] <th1> then when you are done type exit
[12:11] <RAH66> ???? huh?
[12:11] <Sepero> RAH66: Go put in the LiveCD already.
[12:11] <RAH66> <<<<<sorry ubuntu noob
[12:11] <Itr0nic> <<<< me too
[12:11] <th1> RAH66, depends on the type of raid but most likely yes!
[12:11] <RAH66> Im downloading the installer what what...
[12:11] <th1> just be careful when you format it
[12:12] <th1> that you don't repartition the real drive but the raid array
[12:12] <sahil> gnomefreak any idea on how to do that
[12:12] <RAH66> wow what?
[12:12] <GeekMaster1> th1 http://pastebin.ca/573886
[12:12] <th1> RAH66, what kind of raid do you have?
[12:12] <Itr0nic> i installed ubuntu on wrong drive and it deleted 5000 mp3s and about 40 movies :(
[12:12] <RAH66> um um
[12:12] <RAH66> lol
[12:12] <RAH66> ??
[12:12] <GeekMaster1> th1 second command gave me an error
[12:12] <RAH66> name a few?
[12:13] <th1> GeekMaster1, you can't just put "sudo" in front, since it is a combined command. just run "sudo -s" on its own before doing the command
[12:13] <th1> or you can put "sudo" just in front of "apt-get"
[12:13] <gnomefreak> sahil: i used to know but you pretty much want to replace /usr/share/pixmaps/nameoficon with /usr/share/pixmaps/nameoldiconwithnewname
[12:13] <th1> since thats the only part that really needs sudo
[12:14] <guillem101> Sh3r1ff, magnetron, nm, I can manage with the way you point :-)
[12:14] <sahil> gnomefreak, i tried that with this sudo cp apple.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png
[12:14] <sahil> but no luck
[12:14] <th1> GeekMaster1, like this:  http://pastebin.ca/573894
[12:14] <gnomefreak> sahil: should have worked
[12:15] <modconfig> gnomefreak, did you log out and back in?
[12:15] <RAH66> 32_STOR_<IP_ADDRESS>5_PV <<<<<<<< well this is the driver I use for my raid any clues?
[12:15] <Zenton> hi all
[12:15] <gnomefreak> modconfig: when?
[12:15] <sahil> gnomefreak, do you know how to get the trash bin on the desktop?
[12:15] <Zenton> how compatible are debian and ubuntu repositories?
[12:15] <modconfig> gnomefreak, woops, meant for sahil
[12:15] <gnomefreak> sahil: drag and drop it should work
[12:16] <sahil> modconfig what was for me
[12:16] <sahil> gnomefreak, no that has no luck
[12:16] <gnomefreak> sahil: restart
[12:16] <modconfig> sahil, asking if you logged out and back in to see if it changed.
[12:16] <gnomefreak> sahil: better yet killall gnome-panel
[12:17] <Sepero> Zenton: Not compatible in many places.
[12:17] <gnomefreak> sahil: it restarts your gnome panels
[12:17] <GeekMaster1> th1 is it running ok? http://pastebin.ca/573922
[12:17] <RAH66> so how would I partition my drives to not loose any data?
[12:17] <soundray> sahil: what was wrong with my earlier suggestion about trash?
[12:18] <sahil> soundray, it didnt show the icon
[12:18] <Zenton> Sepero: at least main in ubuntu is more compatible with unstable debian or testing?
[12:18] <sahil> it was only a folder
[12:18] <usr_rob> strange, i compiled pam 0.0.8 and edited gdm so that nm-applet will stop asking for the pass. rebooted, seems to work fine, but the network-manager has been removed from the gnome panel, how can i get it back?
[12:18] <nox-Hand> Morning OMKers!
[12:18] <sahil> gnomefreak, restarting panels didnt help
[12:18] <soundray> sahil: so right click it, go to Properties and select a custom icon
[12:18] <Bassetts> how long does the verification email for the pgp keys normally take?
[12:18] <usr_rob> i still get a notification about the the wlan connection is established
[12:18] <gnomefreak> sahil: when you tried command did it output anything?
[12:19] <sahil> gnomefreak, my panels flashed
[12:19] <gnomefreak> Bassetts: not long
[12:19] <th1> GeekMaster1, yes it is reinstalling those packages :) so it should be ok
[12:19] <th1> just afterwards make sure you do the same for xpm icons
[12:19] <Bassetts> gnomefreak, thanks, seems to be taking a while
[12:19] <sahil> soundray, i tried that but it did not update the icon when the trash was full/empty
[12:19] <GeekMaster1> th1 thank you so much
[12:19] <sahil> it was a static icon
[12:19] <OuZo> !java
[12:19] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[12:19] <Sepero> Zenton: Debian unstable and testing are so close together, it really doesn't make much difference.
[12:19] <th1> you're welcome GeekMaster1 :)
[12:20] <Zenton> Sepero: well I mean can I at least mix debian unstable with ubuntu's main?
[12:20] <RichW> Master of geeks.
[12:20] <gnomefreak> Zenton: not supported and a bad idea
[12:20] <Zenton> thanks Sepero  and gnomefreak.
[12:20] <gnomefreak> Zenton: debian and ubuntu binaries are not compatible
[12:20] <Zenton> I see
[12:20] <Sepero> Zenton: I wouldn't recommend it unless you did some homework on repository pinning.
[12:21] <sahil> gnomefreak, dragging only work within the panel itself
[12:22] <Bassetts> gnomefreak, if i dont get the email should i cancel verification and readd the key?
[12:22] <sahil> not from panel to desktop
[12:22] <gnomefreak> Bassetts: kill it and retry
[12:22] <dvm> how to catch usb interrupt using d-bus and hal in  my 'c' code?
[12:22] <Sepero> Anyone here use an Intel536ep modem?
[12:22] <GeekMaster1> th1 is there like a yes to all command I can use instead of waiting for the terminal to ask me for permission, then typing "y"?
[12:23] <th1> GeekMaster1 you can append -y to apt-get
[12:23] <th1> what is it asking about?
[12:24] <Sepero> GeekMaster1: apt-get install $package -y
[12:24] <GeekMaster1> th1 so next time it asks me for y or n just type append -y to apt-get?
[12:24] <magnetron> GeekMaster1: there is a yes command that emits ys
[12:24] <th1> GeekMaster1, no
[12:24] <Bassetts> gnomefreak, thanks, got it now
[12:24] <th1> GeekMaster1, not while the script is running
[12:24] <th1> you have to stop it with ctrl-c and then change it
[12:25] <GeekMaster1> Just finished anyway
[12:25] <Bassetts> FireGPG is damn useful
[12:25] <GeekMaster1> I guess I have to reboot to see the changes? I'm sure you guys know I'm a newb to Liinux by now. I've been using it for 3 days
[12:25] <Sepero> GeekMaster1: Try logging out, then login
[12:26] <th1> so it becomes like Sepero said or here: http://pastebin.ca/573929
[12:26] <GeekMaster1> Sepero ok
[12:26] <GeekMaster1> BRB
[12:26] <arpegius> when i try to restart proftpd i get this message. what does it mean? ProFTPd is started from inetd.
[12:26] <SlimeyPete> GeekMaster1: you don't generally have to reboot with Linux (unless you make changes to the core system e.g. the kernel). Logging out and back in again usually suffices.
[12:26] <th1> arpegius, it means it is started automatically when someone connects to it
[12:26] <th1> arpegius, so there is no "restarting " it..
[12:27] <RichW> What do you guys use to encode a video for the PSP?
[12:27] <arpegius> gotcha thanks.
[12:27] <robinho> usb hub can't use in ubuntu?
[12:27] <th1> robinho, that should be absolutely fine
[12:28] <firedrops> RichW, go to http://www.kde-apps.org
[12:28] <firedrops> and search for an app
[12:28] <firedrops> to do that
[12:28] <firedrops> there's one, i've seen it
[12:28] <Sepero> RichW: I've never encoded a video for PSP before...
[12:29] <Sepero> PSP video = PlayStationPocket or PhotoShoP?
[12:29] <nimbo> hi, my wifi-card doesn't work on feisty anymore. what happened to the prism54 module/driver?
[12:29] <|malajenho|> hi
[12:29] <mattl> Sepero: I don't think Photoshop does video.
[12:30] <sek> guys.. whats the best way to search newsgroups?
[12:30] <th1> Sepero, PSP is usually short for PlayStation Portable or PaintShop Pro, I have never heard it mean Photoshop :)
[12:30] <|malajenho|> I want to create an AUDIO DISC with Brasero, and when I add my mp3 to the New Project, it says: "Unhandled song" : Make sure the appropiate codec is installed

[12:37] <Sepero> GeekMaster1: I'm not really sure. That is something i think you did with th1 in private msgs.
[12:38] <magnetron> Itr0nic: this is what you should do: hold the Alt key when dragging the folder to the desktop, then choose "link here"
[12:38] <GeekMaster1> th1 how do I get to the contents of my replace file?
[12:39] <GeekMaster1> Sepero do you have another suggestion for me to replace these icons? They are VERY big.

[12:42] <Surkow> Hello...My internet keeps going on and off...there is no logic in it. I have an ethernet chip from nvidia (ck804) and an ethernet chip from Marvell.
[12:42] <Surkow> both are wired connections
[12:42] <Surkow> when I boot ubuntu
[12:42] <nimbo> hi, my wifi-card doesn't work on feisty anymore. what happened to the prism54 module/driver?
[12:43] <Surkow> I can't connect with one ethernet port...and I have to manually switch the cable to the other
[12:43] <m1r> surkow , pastebin ifconfig
[12:43] <Surkow> ok
[12:43] <m1r> nimbo , sec
[12:45] <Surkow> @mlr - http://pastebin.com/931254
[12:46] <Surkow> no errors atm...but I will reboot and show what it says when it does not connect again. If that happens I need to choose the other connection to make it work again (I suspect a bug in network manager or my router/switch has problems releasing the ip)
[12:46] <m1r> nimbo , did u use original drivers or ndiswrapper
[12:46] <nimbo> m1r: none of them
[12:46] <nimbo> i don't get my card running on feisty
[12:46] <m1r> wait please
[12:46] <m1r> surkow
[12:46] <m1r> sec
[12:47] <nimbo> it also just works on kernel 2.6.17-10, 2.6.17-11 doesn't recognize my card also and above
[12:47] <m1r> surkow, u have static IP set ?

[12:48] <Surkow> I just tested it again mlr
[12:49] <Surkow> ipconfig now says something else
[12:49] <Surkow> (I just connected my other ethernet connection and it failed to get an ip)

[12:58] <ubotu> Dark_Angel_n00b: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:58] <cotyrothery> hey can someone help me with getting an iso image burned correctly
[12:59] <Dark_Angel_n00b> ok how would I edit the host file on ubuntu 7.04
[12:59] <nimbo> m1r: i'm going to recompile the kernel and see where the problem resides
[12:59] <wols> cotyrothery: use gnomebaker or k3b
[12:59] <cotyrothery> i have
[12:59] <wols> Darkwingshadow: editor /etc/hosts
[12:59] <Dark_Angel_n00b> currently on M$ i have edited the host file to allow me to use a domain instead of the ip to contact the server.
[12:59] <cotyrothery> I have burned dsl to give it a try and it never burns right maybe it is my settings
[12:59] <Darkwingshadow> Im having problem running Linux on a Toshiba computer?
[12:59] <cotyrothery> Dsl is live cd also
[01:00] <jatt> Darkwingshadow: are you?
[01:00] <Frogzoo> cotyrothery: burn @ 1/2 speed - but check the iso md5sum before
[01:00] <Darkwingshadow> ye
[01:00] <Darkwingshadow> ye
[01:00] <Darkwingshadow> yes
[01:00] <wols> cotyrothery: you still haven't told us what the error is. will you ever?
[01:00] <cotyrothery> Frogzoo: could you guide me as i go
[01:00] <wols> Darkwingshadow: that's fine. kepp on truckin'
[01:00] <cotyrothery> wols: there is no error
[01:00] <wols> cotyrothery: I don't believe you
[01:00] <Darkwingshadow> yes
[01:00] <Dark_Angel_n00b> when you say editor do you mean text editor ?
[01:01] <cotyrothery> wols: it finishes the burning
[01:01] <wols> however if you are right and there is no error then the CD will be fine. have fun with DSL
[01:01] <Dark_Angel_n00b> I have brwosed to etc/host but it wouldnt let me save
[01:01] <cotyrothery> it just when i insert the cd nothing happens
[01:01] <cotyrothery> its just a no good cd after i burn it
[01:01] <wols> Darkwingshadow: no I mean the commmand "editor"
[01:02] <wols> cotyrothery: you still haven't learnt to do a proper problem description have you? do you think we are psychic so we know what's wrong with the CD?
[01:02] <wols> what is on the CD?
[01:02] <cotyrothery> wols: i really dont know how to explain something like this
[01:02] <Dark_Angel_n00b> wols: right so via cmd. What are the commands to edit the hosts file then, sorry but I am a complete n00b to linux, it like to make a good go of it though
[01:02] <cotyrothery> wols: it is dsl
[01:02] <wols> Dark_Angel_n00b: I already told you
[01:02] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, gksudo "gedit /etc/hosts"
[01:03] <wols> cotyrothery: no it is not DSL. if it were it would boot. it doesn't boot so something is wrong with it, hence: no DSL
[01:03] <cotyrothery> wols: it has done this with ubuntu also
[01:03] <oOpusOoperandi> i am trying to install vmware
[01:03] <oOpusOoperandi> and I get this error

[01:06] <cotyrothery> m1r: the app that comes with ubuntu
[01:06] <wols> oOpusOoperandi: I know. and that's why you are not supposed to install it. simple, eh?
[01:06] <AzMoo> oOpusOoperandi, Yes it is, it's in multiverse.
[01:06] <cotyrothery> m1r: it has no name
[01:06] <oOpusOoperandi> AzMoo: Workstation?

[01:08] <cotyrothery> it says
[01:08] <Darkwingshadow> can anyone help me?
[01:08] <Dark_Angel_n00b> wols: gedit /etc/hosts opens the file up in text editor and defines the file as read only. But admited I did launch this from terminal
[01:08] <haggis> wols, my home directory
[01:08] <cotyrothery> write to disc cdd5501
[01:08] <cotyrothery> or
[01:08] <haggis> wols, /chome
[01:08] <cotyrothery> write to disc image file
[01:08] <m1r> cdd5501
[01:08] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, gksudo "gedit /etc/hosts"
[01:08] <wols> Dark_Angel_n00b: you need to be root. use sudo/gksudo
[01:09] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, that will open it as root
[01:09] <m1r> not image file
[01:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> from terminal right ?
[01:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> right
[01:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> so I need to install this first
[01:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> gotcha now
[01:09] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, no.
[01:09] <cotyrothery> m1r: i have not selected image file as my burning setting
[01:09] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, gksudo is installed.
[01:09] <cotyrothery> m1r: i have tried the other
[01:09] <cotyrothery> m1r: it just leaves my disc useless
[01:09] <Surkow> mlr - I reset my router and it seemed a router problem
[01:10] <wols> haggis: shouldn't be essential to force maintenance mode. which script is mounting it?
[01:10] <Surkow> I will restart a couple of times to see if it really was the router
[01:10] <m1r> then it seems your cdd is broken
[01:10] <m1r> does if wotk under other OS ?
[01:10] <Surkow> my ethernet?
[01:10] <cotyrothery> my burner works
[01:10] <Surkow> brb gotta reboot

[01:11] <Surkow> I hope it was just my router mlr ;D
[01:11] <m1r> cotyrothery
[01:11] <AzMoo> oOpusOoperandi, /media/foo is the standard in ubuntu.

[01:12] <wols> !anyone | Sepero
[01:12] <ubotu> Sepero: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:13] <oOpusOoperandi> AzMoo: I presume I would need add it  in fstab as well
[01:13] <Darkwingshadow> Im getting an error with Gnome it says it cannot start up?
[01:13] <oOpusOoperandi> y
[01:13] <AzMoo> oOpusOoperandi, if you want it to mount automatically then you will have to.
[01:13] <oOpusOoperandi> lol
[01:13] <Sepero> wols: I need a copy of the module for that modem. That is all.
[01:14] <Darkwingshadow> Im getting an error with Gnome it says it cannot start up?
[01:14] <Dark_Angel_n00b> another question I have is, the server is a print server running on the dreaded M$ os and is set up to be a print server. How would I be able to link ubuntu up to use the print server in order to print please
[01:14] <AzMoo> Darkwingshadow, what's the error?
[01:15] <wols> Sepero: http://www.linmodems.org/
[01:15] <oOpusOoperandi> n
[01:15] <AzMoo> Darkwingshadow, please don't pm me.
[01:15] <AzMoo> Darkwingshadow, talk in here.
[01:16] <Sepero> wols: No thanks. That site isn't going to help me.
[01:16] <wols> Sepero: why not?
[01:17] <cotyrothery> mr1: man i messed up my last cd
[01:17] <wols> Sepero: it has a link to the drive you need
[01:17] <Sepero> wols: Because I need the driver precompiled for a kernel that I'm not using.
[01:17] <Surkow> I'm back and my problem is not solved yet. I thought it was my router...but now I get more and more errors with ipconfig. http://pastebin.com/931259
[01:17] <wols> cotyrothery: will you now answer my question?
[01:17] <cotyrothery> wols: um no
[01:17] <wols> Sepero: you can cimpile drivers for another kernel (as long as you have headers for the kernel)
[01:18] <wols> ok then
[01:18] <m1r> cotyrothery , did u try other burning application =?
[01:18] <Surkow> @mlr - http://pastebin.com/931259
[01:18] <cotyrothery> m1r: yea
[01:18] <cotyrothery> m1r: Maybe its the cd's
[01:18] <m1r> then i cant help further
[01:18] <Surkow> the connection died again mlr
[01:18] <m1r> surkow , min
[01:18] <Sepero> wols: Unfortunalely, with the 536, it will not compile unless you are actually using that kernel.
[01:18] <m89> hello
[01:19] <m1r> cotyrothery , cd,s or your cdr drive
[01:19] <wols> Sepero: no. as long as you hand it the proper files (headers mostly) it will compile
[01:19] <cotyrothery> m1r: the cd's
[01:19] <mrcreativity> i need to install older nvidia drivers, can someone help me please
[01:19] <wols> mrcreativity: ask your real question
[01:19] <Sepero> wols: I've tried it before. Trust me, it doesn't work.
[01:19] <cotyrothery> wols: the reason i cant anwser your question is because there is no anwer
[01:20] <wols> Surkow: paste your /etc/network/interfaces and the lsmod output right after boot
[01:20] <Darkwingshadow> okay
[01:20] <Surkow> ok
[01:20] <mrcreativity> i installed the latest drivers from the repositories, and they didnt work properly. i need to install an older version.

[01:21] <AzMoo> Darkwingshadow, what /exactly/ does the error say?
[01:21] <Darkwingshadow> it cannot start up
[01:21] <wols> mrcreativity: the newest drivres will work for that card
[01:21] <Darkwingshadow> it said the themes and sound might not be
[01:21] <m1r> or broken CD trademark
[01:21] <Darkwingshadow> displayed right
[01:21] <oOpusOoperandi> w00t!!! VmWare is hawt!!
[01:21] <cotyrothery> wols: its not broken because i can burn other things to it that are not images
[01:21] <wols> mrcreativity: what error do you get?
[01:21] <AzMoo> Darkwingshadow, no. Exactly. Letter for letter.
[01:21] <oOpusOoperandi> can I now install m$$hit XcraP?
[01:22] <mrcreativity> actually, i found that rebooting and closing X messed up my screen, and i was unable to log in after the screen locks me out

[01:25] <mrcreativity> thank you. does restarting X have the same effect on display drivers as rebooting?
[01:25] <wols> mrcreativity: mostly yes
[01:26] <mrcreativity> thank you. i found an older version of the driver in the repository, ill try that first
[01:26] <Darkwingshadow> okay, i will be back im going to write down the errror.

[01:29] <spifff> hi... i'm having problems getting the lcd of my dell inspiron 6400 to come back on after i close and re-open the lid. it works ok in "normal" mode, but when i have Xorg configured for dual head, only the external monitor comes back on
[01:29] <Surkow> I listed etc/network/interfaces and the lsmod output right after boot
[01:29] <Surkow> you can read it here
[01:29] <Surkow> http://pastebin.com/931264
[01:29] <m1r> surkow, did u set static IP ?
[01:29] <LinuX__> How to change language in Ubuntu with out reload the OS ?
[01:29] <Pici> !locale | LinuX__
[01:29] <Surkow> do I need to set it in my router or in ubuntu mlr?
[01:29] <spifff> i've had a look at the /etc/acpi/lid.sh script, but it quits right away when gnome-power-manager is running (which it is)... any hints how to fix this?
[01:29] <wols> Surkow: after this boot, did the nvidia one work (forcedeth is laoded)
[01:29] <ubotu> LinuX__: To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf
[01:30] <wols> also: which driver is the one for marvell?
[01:30] <Surkow> ehm
[01:30] <Surkow> what I just posted
[01:30] <Surkow> now is the marvell active
[01:30] <m1r> surkow
[01:30] <LinuX__> thanks
[01:30] <m1r> :)
[01:30] <sehute> I have used Debian and now Ubuntu for many years. I have searched the web for answers. How do I pair my mobile device over bluetooth? (for instance with bluez-pin?)
[01:30] <m1r> surkow, set one card static IP
[01:30] <m1r> and i recomend that one dont be marvel
[01:30] <wols> Surkow: what is your third ethernet card?
[01:30] <Surkow> It's really random...when I boot and marvel does not work I switch to nvidia. and if the marvel does not work only switching to nvidia works
[01:30] <Surkow> ehm
[01:30] <Surkow> no third
[01:31] <wols> Surkow: why is there an eth2 in your interfaces then?
[01:31] <wols> also: dmesg |grep eth
[01:31] <Surkow> I have no idea XD
[01:31] <m1r> wols, is a mess :)
[01:31] <wols> Surkow: you also have an atheros or similar madwifi card?
[01:31] <Surkow> mlr -  think it's a feature of my mobo
[01:31] <Surkow> no...
[01:31] <Surkow> that is the problem I think
[01:31] <m1r> just two cards wols
[01:31] <wols> Surkow: then why is there ath0 and wlan0?
[01:31] <Surkow> I don't have that type of mobo
[01:32] <Surkow> because asus also offers a wifi version of my mobo
[01:32] <Surkow> I think the chip is there
[01:32] <Surkow> on my mobo
[01:32] <m1r> it shouldnt be there in /etc/netwrok/interfaces
[01:32] <Surkow> so I don't have wifi...but it does see a chip with wifi
[01:32] <Surkow> I should remove it?
[01:32] <m1r> imho , only eth0 and eth1
[01:32] <Surkow> ok
[01:33] <wols> why do you think it sees a wlan chip? all there is, is a config in /etc/network/interfaces
[01:33] <bullgard4> What is meant with 'Mixer track' in Gnome main menu System > Preferences  >  Sound > General > 'Default Mixer Tracks'
[01:33] <m1r> and set nvidia card to be primary one with static ip m8
[01:33] <Surkow> @wols - network manager does not see the wifi part
[01:33] <Surkow> ok
[01:33] <Surkow> I will do
[01:33] <Surkow> or try to do it ;D
[01:33] <m1r> u dont have wifi :)
[01:33] <m1r> just mess in configs
[01:33] <wols> Surkow: you can check if there is wifi with lspci
[01:33] <Surkow> ok
[01:33] <wols> also: what did dmesg |grep eth say?
[01:34] <Surkow> I will post it @pastebin
[01:35] <Surkow> http://pastebin.com/931265
[01:35] <Surkow> lspci does not show any wifi chips
[01:36] <Surkow> what does ath mean?
[01:36] <tricky> does U7.04 support nvidia NF4 raid?
[01:36] <wols> ath0 is what certain wifi drives (madwifi) use for interface names
[01:36] <Surkow> ok
[01:37] <m1r> surkow, just remove all but eth0 , eth1
[01:37] <Surkow> I should comment all things besides
[01:37] <Surkow> auto lo
[01:37] <Surkow> iface lo inet loopback
[01:37] <Surkow> auto eth0
[01:37] <Surkow> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[01:37] <Surkow> auto eth1
[01:37] <Surkow> iface eth1 inet dhcp
[01:37] <Surkow> ok
[01:37] <wols> Surkow: yes
[01:37] <Surkow> done
[01:37] <Surkow> brb reboot
[01:37] <m1r> NO
[01:37] <wols> sudhanshu: no
[01:37] <wols> doh!
[01:37] <m1r> :)
[01:37] <wols> *sigh*
[01:37] <m1r> he is cool :)
[01:38] <m1r> reboot every time :)
[01:38] <wols> resbooting ater an interfaces change is NOT cool. it's idiotic
[01:38] <wols> ew need to tell him when he comes back
[01:38] <m1r> well he obviusly dont know :/
[01:38] <m1r> yes i will
[01:38] <wols> he ovbiously is a windows user
[01:38] <m1r> :)
[01:38] <wols> *obviously

[01:40] <_Titatovenaar_> What is the current kernel? 2.16.20-16?
[01:41] <wols> _Titatovenaar_: package.ubuntu.com knows
[01:41] <ugarit> I use feisty, gnome, and I got rid of the top panel and only use the bottom, now the little orange star indicating updates does not appear on the bottom panel as it used to on the top one.  How do I solve this?
[01:41] <Slart> how can I, without opening my case, check what kind of memory I've got in my box?
[01:41] <wols> Slart: dmidecode
[01:41] <Slart> wols: thanks
[01:41] <wols> Slart: also your chipset usually tells you what to buy
[01:41] <Surkow> wols, mlr - it seems to work
[01:42] <Surkow> I commented the other devices
[01:42] <Surkow> and after two reboots it still works :D
[01:42] <wols> Surkow: youa re not supposed to reboot evrytime
[01:42] <_Titatovenaar_> wols....?
[01:42] <wols> unless you do kernel changes or new hardware there is no reason to reboot
[01:42] <m1r> surkow
[01:42] <wols> _Titatovenaar_: I gave you an URL. look there
[01:42] <Surkow> @wols - I reboot because I also switch from windows to ubuntu
[01:42] <_Titatovenaar_> there is just a command right to check in terminal what current version is?
[01:42] <Surkow> to see if it causes problems
[01:42] <wols> Surkow: ubuntu has a tcpip stack and a irc client too
[01:42] <defrysk> uname -r
[01:42] <m1r> surkow , /etc/init.d/networking restart = restart network without reboot
[01:43] <wols> _Titatovenaar_: running kernel_ uname -a
[01:43] <wols> _Titatovenaar_: available kernels apt-cache search linux-image
[01:43] <tricky> is seems my nvidia NF4 raid 0 not recognized by U7.04, but it was working in older linux releases like SUSE 10.2... what i should do?
[01:43] <Surkow> @mlr - do you know the restart command for the gnome network manager?
[01:43] <m1r> just typed u above
[01:43] <Surkow> ok
[01:43] <wols> tricky: yous hould not use nvidia raid. it's fakeraid
[01:43] <cotyrothery> wols: is there away i can make it were my desktop icons and folders are smaller like the windows ones
[01:43] <m1r> surkow , /etc/init.d/networking restart = restart network without reboot
[01:43] <wols> cotyrothery: no clue
[01:43] <cotyrothery> wols: it seems like they take a lot of space
[01:44] <cotyrothery> on my screen
[01:44] <wols> cotyrothery: use a higher resolution :P
[01:44] <m1r> cotyrothery , right click on icon, RESIZE
[01:44] <cotyrothery> ok
[01:45] <cotyrothery> m1r: is there away i can have the small size as default
[01:46] <cotyrothery> for all icons for now on
[01:46] <m1r> coty, must be, but i dont know
[01:47] <ugarit> I use ubuntu feisty, gnome, and I got rid of the top panel and only use the bottom, now the little orange star indicating updates does not appear on the bottom panel as it used to on the top one.  How do I solve this?

[01:47] <Surkow> when I reset the connection
[01:47] <cotyrothery> darn
[01:47] <jrib> ugarit: add "notificat area" to your panedl
[01:47] <Surkow> it dies, and then resets itself after that it works again
[01:47] <eX|Joe> hey guys, could anyone tell me why my videos would be slugish?  I'm using a x850xt.
[01:47] <ugarit> jrib: thanks
[01:47] <m1r> so is workable surkow ?
[01:48] <Surkow> well yes...it works. But I reboot to check if it works on reboot.   Does anyone know a solution for this?
[01:48] <m1r> surkow, if u can set static IP
[01:49] <Surkow> I can try that indeed...but I think I should remake my cat5 cables
[01:49] <Surkow> the connections are too fragile and the internet dies often because of that
[01:49] <emman101> anybody knows about how fvwm95 manager work?
[01:49] <wols> emman101: ask your ral question
[01:50] <Surkow> I think that is the reason for the connection errors...but windows does not seem to suffer from it
[01:50] <Surkow> brb
[01:51] <emman101> anybody knows how to minimize memory use in ubuntu?
[01:52] <defrysk> emman101, unused ram is wasted ram
[01:52] <preaction> emman101: what do you want to trade-off? do you want to use swap more?
[01:52] <DjViper> used ram (and cpu) is wasted heat and batteryjuice...
[01:53] <emman101> I use ubuntu 7.04 in a 256mb ram
[01:53] <DjViper> emman101: turn off beryl
[01:53] <emman101> and I want to use eclipse
[01:53] <defrysk> DjViper, unused ram makes your hd spin
[01:53] <emman101> beryl?
[01:53] <wers> in my openoffice writer, the icons on the toolbars were lost and were replaced by text, how do I put the icons back? :)
[01:53] <sahil> gnomefreak, i figured it out you need to open gconf-editor and then go to apps >>nautilus>>desktop>>make trashcan visible to get it on the desktop
[01:54] <emman101> DjViper: beryl what's that? how do I turn it off?
[01:54] <orbin> emman101: desktop eye candy.  it's not enabled by default
[01:54] <defrysk> sahil, you could also install gtweakui
[01:54] <patryk_> siema
[01:54] <orbin> emman101: try using a more lightweight desktop environment
[01:54] <emman101> defrysk: its not unuse its over use
[01:55] <defrysk> emman101, yes you have just a 256 megs

[01:55] <emman101> yah but I want to use eclipse also.. and it run very slow
[01:56] <emman101> orbin: emman101: desktop eye candy.  it's not enabled by default,,,, what is this program about?
[01:56] <defrysk> emman101, try installing xubuntu-desktop, and run xfce4 from gdm and see if you have more ram to use for eclipse
[01:57] <emman101> im actually using edubuntu because im in a school lab seeting which is more friendly to student

[01:58] <Dezine> Hi, can I install the ubuntuserver packages from Ubuntu? I figure it would be an easy way to get all that I need to run a server.

[03:46] <genii> phiwum: What PriceChild just said
[03:47] <gdb> I'm curious if anyone here is still running dapper.  Anyone?
[03:47] <IamJoa> thats no fair
[03:47] <PriceChild> genii, stefg someone's lagging ;)
[03:47] <luke> lol
[03:47] <PriceChild> gdb, yes they are.
[03:47] <IamJoa> i wanna talk in here
[03:47] <luke> i only just got into it when i installed linux
[03:47] <rustalot> does gcc do java?
[03:47] <stefg> PriceChild: one of my several hundred connections must have a got a bad wire :-)
[03:47] <luke> you have to ask for it
[03:47] <wlfR> Hi! what should I download (plugin) for amarok to be able to extract cd's to the computer
[03:48] <eljak> hi what is the default installation folder for java, javahome? i installed versions 5 and 6, jre and jdk and when i install netbeans it wont find any jdk
[03:48] <luke> if there is voice in this room
[03:48] <gdb> PriceChild: Yeah, I get that.  It's pretty obvious. ;-)  If you read between the lines of my question, I'm interested in *who* is running dapper, not "that someone, somewhere, is running dapper." ;-)
[03:48] <luke> is there voice in this room ????
[03:48] <Pici> luke: yes.
[03:48] <PriceChild> gdb, If you are in need of support then ask your real question ;)

[03:49] <gdb> PriceChild: I'm not in any need of support but I appreciate the offer.  I'm just curious how many of us out here are more interesting in going from LTS to LTS rather than every release in between.
[03:49] <IamJoa> can i watch yous answer questions
[03:49] <gdb> er more interestd in*
[03:49] <PriceChild> gdb, well this is a support channel only. If its not support please head to -offtopic
[03:49] <Pici> IamJoa: Of course/
[03:49] <IamJoa> cool

[03:50] <Hobbsee> watching does not involve talking.
[03:50] <rustalot> does gcc do java
[03:51] <stefg> gdb:  Dapper has its merrits in stability. edgy and feisty introduced a lot of new and experimantal features which don't work out in any case. also on the server it's good to have 5 years support
[03:51] <eduhat> hey guys, anyone know a good music player?
[03:51] <Pici> rustalot: Not to my knowledge (although I could be wrong)
[03:51] <Hobbsee> eduhat: amarok
[03:52] <Sepero> eljak: Still need help?
[03:52] <eljak> Sepero: yes i would appreciate it
[03:52] <rustalot> Pici: what kind of compiler / IDE can I get for it
[03:52] <GizDrak> Hey all, got a quick question going to be setting up a file server this week and going to run ubuntu on it. I got all my samba and netatalk worked out now I need a good backup system to take archives of all the files on the server on to a external harddrive. I will need some type of software that keeps a database of the archives we need to be able to restore just parts on the archives from time to time. can anyone recommand a good backu
[03:52] <eduhat> Hobbsee: is that for kde or gnome. because to get that it is a 178mb download. that seems a little much for a music player. plus i see stuf like kdebase-bin
[03:53] <Hobbsee> eduhat: kde.  usable on gnome, though
[03:53] <stefg> !backup | GizDrak
[03:53] <PriceChild> eduhat, yeah it requires kde libraries... only means about 15Mb extra ram usage or something silly like that
[03:53] <ubotu> GizDrak: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[03:53] <Sepero> eljak: To see all the packages installed on your system, type: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list
[03:53] <eduhat> Hobbsee: is there any other music player that is for gnome?
[03:53] <preaction> eduhat: rhythmbox?
[03:53] <PriceChild> eduhat, what's wrong with rhythmbox?
[03:54] <Pici> !players | eduhat
[03:54] <ubotu> eduhat: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[03:54] <eduhat> preaction: its boring
[03:54] <aditya> Hi
[03:54] <spikeb> music players are supposed to be boring.
[03:54] <spikeb> they're not exciting applications by nature.
[03:54] <aditya> I am having some problems with alsa in Ubuntu 7.04
[03:54] <Sepero> eljak: To see the contents (files) of a single package type: less /var/lib/dpkg/info/<packagename>.list
[03:54] <PriceChild> !sound | aditya
[03:54] <ubotu> aditya: 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
[03:54] <Khamael> eduhat: I can recommend amarok
[03:54] <yondie> aditya, compile the latest alsa manually
[03:55] <alduin> Whenever I boot, my X server complains that the nvidia kernel module isn't the same version as the X server module.  If I do a manual install of the nvidia drivers downloaded from nvidia.com it works until I reboot.  Anyone know what packages I need to re-install to get all the version numbers synced up so I don't have to re-install the drivers every time I boot? =P
[03:55] <Khamael> eduhat: even though it is qt/kde
[03:55] <eduhat> Khamael: yeah. but that is an extra 178mb wasted.
[03:55] <PriceChild> aditya, yondie not the best advice at all?!
[03:55] <PriceChild> eduhat, try "listen"
[03:55] <aditya> Ok!
[03:56] <wols> alduin: dpkg -l |grep nividia
[03:56] <wols> the nvidia version numbers for all of them must match up
[03:56] <Khamael> eduhat: if you don`t want to waste anything, try mpg123
[03:57] <eduhat> Khamael: is that mpg123 like a console player?
[03:57] <alduin> wols: well, two are at 1.0.9631, the other is 20051028+1ubuntu7.
[03:57] <Khamael> eduhat: yes, it is a console player. used it long time ago
[03:58] <Khamael> eduhat: I like the integrated lyrics and wikipedia of amarok
[03:58] <alduin> wols: and it doesn't look like there's a newer version of nvidia-kernel-common (the one with the odd version).
[03:59] <ubuntuEdgy> hi guys how can i use you-tube and listen to some music at the same time ?
[03:59] <Khamael> eduhat: seems listen does the same things
[03:59] <eduhat> Khamael: im getting amarok now.
[03:59] <wols> alduin: use the 97.55 driver
[04:00] <wols> alduin: apt-cache search nvidia
[04:00] <luke> yo tigger
[04:00] <Bassetts> how come when i install gparted it does not show in any menus
[04:00] <eduhat> Khamael: now if i want to delete it. how would i delete amarok in total. like all 178mb's
[04:01] <LinuxHelp> If I mark a harddisk partition as "Empty" does that mean that various programs may write to it thinking there is nothing stored there? Such as maybe the ubuntu install cd using it as swap space?
[04:01] <alduin> wols: I assume that's the nvidia-glx-new?
[04:01] <tigeress> yo luke
[04:01] <ubuntuEdgy> why is it that windows can play about 20 different sound files from the same sound card yet ubuntu complains if you try and play 2
[04:01] <Raiden> eduhat> mp3blaster - good plaer for console )
[04:01] <Khamael> eduhat: if amarok alone takes 178, then type sudo --purge amarok. that removes amarok and config files
[04:01] <luke> hi tiggeress
[04:01] <Raiden> *player
[04:02] <PriceChild> ubuntuEdgy, i don't have that problem... I'd suggest you /msg ubotu sound
[04:02] <tigeress> wats happenin
[04:02] <luke> sfa
[04:02] <wols> alduin: what version is your kernel module?
[04:02] <luke> lol
[04:02] <ubuntuEdgy> :-/ getting tired
[04:02] <tigeress> =)) going off
[04:02] <luke> im bourd lol
[04:03] <kikkertje> I, I have a hp 840c printer, and I don't know how to install him in ubuntu 7.04
[04:03] <tigeress> something different
[04:03] <Khamael> eduhat: if it requires any kde/qt packages, you have to hunt down deps, I think
[04:03] <alduin> wols: Not sure... how do I find out?
[04:03] <wols> alduin: I already told you with dpkg -l
[04:03] <bottle> can i recover deleted files from ubuntu?
[04:03] <bottle> which the program can?
[04:03] <alduin> wols: then I already told you, too. =)  20051028+1ubuntu7
[04:03] <wols> bottle: what filesystem?
[04:04] <wols> alduin: no you did not. that's not a kernel driver
[04:04] <stefg> kikkertje: just go to the system-admin-menu, select printer, add a new one. Will be autodetected in 99% of cases
[04:04] <bottle> fat32
[04:04] <bottle> video files
[04:04] <Bassetts> how come when i install gparted it does not show in any menus

[04:04] <CyberMad> how to change the resolution of my ubuntu to 800x600 ?
[04:04] <alduin> wols: only nvidia kernel things I've got installed are nvidia-kernel-common and nvidia-kernel-source.  The source matches up with the 9631 version, but that's just the source.  It's not compiled.
[04:05] <stefg> !fixres | CyberMad

[04:05] <tritium> !fixres > CyberMad (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:05] <wols> alduin: well, what do you expect then? how could it work without having a kernel module?
[04:05] <bottle> wols ??
[04:05] <wols> modinfo nvidia
[04:05] <shawn34> Bassetts, System>Administration>GParted
[04:05] <mehdi> CyberMad, system > preferences
[04:05] <wols> if the kernel module is not compiled it cannot work, period
[04:05] <shawn34> Bassetts, or simply "sudo gparted" from a terminal
[04:06] <Bassetts> shawn34, oh, its GNOME Partition Manager no gparted
[04:06] <Bassetts> doh
[04:06] <CyberMad> thanks :)
[04:06] <alduin> wols: ... that's kinda what I was hoping to get some help on.  As it stands, I have to manually re-install the kernel driver from nvidia's install script every time I reboot.  I'd like to avoid that.
[04:06] <PriceChild> alduin, then use ubuntu's packages.
[04:06] <wols> alduin: I asked you to run a command modinfo
[04:07] <eduhat> Khamael: how would i delete it again?
[04:07] <Bassetts> ubuntu keeps mounting the hidden partition on my sda1 when i gave it no mount point, why
[04:07] <Khamael> eduhat: the easiest is to use synaptic
[04:07] <alduin> wols: I don't have that in my scrollback.  Could you repost that line?
[04:07] <wols> modinfo nvidia
[04:08] <eduhat> Khamael: allright. thankyou
[04:08] <Khamael> eduhat: just search for amarok in synaptic for easy install/uninstall
[04:08] <alduin> wols: http://pastebin.com/931353

[04:09] <eljak> Sepero: i used what sent me thank you but still i used -is:javahome with netbeans but still it fails to find a jdk i tried all combination of paths

[04:10] <cotyrothery> can someone please help me this is urgent i need to get my tool bars back
[04:11] <eljak> Sepero: but i can say i learned something new today :)
[04:11] <alduin> wols: I'm pretty sure that's the situation I'm in now, since the problem started when the last kernel update came out.  Which ubuntu package provides the kernel module that matches the X driver I'm using?
[04:11] <stelki> I am having some trouble with my  nForce 590 chipset. First of all, whenever I boot from the livecd, I'd just get a black screen and my monitor would turn off. (This is the 64bit version). Anybody have an idea?

[04:17] <wlfR> are you able to extract cd's with exaile?
[04:18] <PriceChild> Bassetts, are you sure its actually mounted? type "mount" in a terminal
[04:18] <milestone> hi all
[04:18] <PriceChild> Bassetts, I'm not on feisty atm... but ont he system i'm on, it detects them all but only mounts them when you double click it
[04:18] <Bassetts> PriceChild, it lets me enter the partition and see all files, it should be hidden
[04:18] <milestone> how can i check what is using up all of my inodes?
[04:18] <milestone> system is edgy
[04:18] <wols> milestone: one file = one inode
[04:18] <wols> the more files, the more inodes are used
[04:18] <rem_> hey..just a q , I have a Canon Lide 30 scanner i've been using without any probs with xsane, and since upgrade from edgy to feisty the scanner doesnt move anymore and thus i get a black image in xsane...anyone had similar prob or know what it could be .. ?
[04:18] <SlimeyPete> milestone: lsof?
[04:18] <Bassetts> PriceChild, can i not make it hidden properly, its the hidden partition with the recovery program from the factory on it, i dont want to damage it
[04:18] <dfgas_> my ubuntu drive is hdb, i want to take out hda and move ubuntu to hda, how do i do this, i am using feisty
[04:18] <milestone> SlimeyPete: ok
[04:19] <PriceChild> Bassetts, sudo mount -a
[04:19] <PriceChild> Bassetts, then run "mount"
[04:19] <PriceChild> Bassetts, and tell me if it still shows up
[04:19] <Bassetts> PriceChild, cant see it
[04:19] <milestone> SlimeyPete: hmm 1271 open files
[04:20] <PriceChild> Bassetts, well then it isn't mounted... however does it still show up in computer?
[04:20] <Bassetts> PriceChild, can i not get it to just not show up at all even in Places>Computer
[04:20] <milestone> that should not be the problem should it?
[04:20] <Bassetts> PriceChild, yes
[04:20] <rem_> (usb works, if i plug something else in there it works ..)
[04:20] <SlimeyPete> milestone: 5000+ here, with no consequences
[04:20] <yondie> umount -a
[04:20] <PriceChild> Bassetts, the only way you can mount it is by using an account in the admin group... and putting in your sudo password.
[04:20] <rem_> hey..just a q , I have a Canon Lide 30 scanner i've been using without any probs with xsane, and since upgrade from edgy to feisty the scanner doesnt move anymore and thus i get a black image in xsane...anyone had similar prob or know what it could be .. ?
[04:20] <yondie> Bassetts, check your fstab
[04:20] <milestone> is there a check tool like ncdu or du?
[04:20] <PriceChild> Bassetts, I guess there's an option in gconf-editor somewhere...
[04:20] <milestone> just for inodes?
[04:20] <yondie> probably it automount there
[04:21] <Bassetts> PriceChild, i double click it on my normal account and it lets me in
[04:21] <Bassetts> yondie, its not there
[04:21] <PriceChild> Bassetts, does that user have sudo access?
[04:21] <yondie> hurm
[04:21] <Bassetts> PriceChild, only if i type my pass
[04:21] <PriceChild> Bassetts, gksudo probably has the password still in the timeout then
[04:21] <milestone> how does nagios determine the inode count?
[04:21] <yondie> Bassetts, does your partition is on a external device?
[04:22] <PriceChild> Bassetts, either way its not mounting it unless you actually go to it#
[04:22] <Bassetts> PriceChild, can i just completely hide it though?
[04:22] <PriceChild> Bassetts, there's probably an optino somewhere in gconf-editor
[04:22] <Bassetts> yondie, its a hidden partition on my hdd
[04:22] <Bassetts> PriceChild, any hints on where
[04:22] <yondie> hurm
[04:22] <yondie> sudo mount -l
[04:23] <yondie> paste somewhere around paste-bin
[04:23] <PriceChild> Bassetts, I know how to easily remove it from desktop... but not menus... *searches further*
[04:23] <Bassetts> yondie, its unmounted now, i just want to get it out of Places>Desktop
[04:23] <avinashk> hello
[04:24] <yondie> Bassetts, owh just look around gconf-editor somewhere there

[04:25] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:26] <PriceChild> Bassetts, sudo and gksudo don't keep the same timeout afaik... as a terminal is spawned as a new login
[04:26] <TwigEther> grr, I'm stuck at a console. Anyone know the name of the package to apt-get for nvidia drivers?
[04:26] <yondie> Bassetts,  apps/nautilus/Desktop
[04:26] <yondie> unthick the Volume Visible
[04:26] <PriceChild> Bassetts, you can turn the timeouts off completely so you need to enter your password every time... but again I can't remember where that is

[04:50] <ubotu> xl_peter: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)

[04:58] <cotyrothery> sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt
[04:58] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: i think irssi downloads to home folder
[04:58] <rem_> anyone had problem with xsane after upgrade to feisty .. ?
[04:58] <cotyrothery> wops
[04:58] <NafNaf> is somebody experienced enough with xmms and codecs to help me troubleshoot a frequent skipping when i listen to an MP3 stream?
[04:58] <yondie> beni: man mount and choose a type of image u think
[04:59] <rem_> tried to google...had ppl with similar probs..but didnt find answer ...
[04:59] <beni> yondie: ... sudo mount -o loop Adobe_Photoshop_CS_deutsch.img /mnt/blub does not work. Image type is (as you may see) is  IMG of an CDROM file
[04:59] <mbt> NafNaf, it is most likely an issue of bandwidth
[04:59] <beni> xD
[04:59] <stickerhappy> DrFraiser:  i reach a screen where there's a menu items like Start Ubuntu,  Memory Check, etc.  just the keyboard, no mouse.
[04:59] <NafNaf> the skipping happens since i was playing with different codecs to listen to some unknown movie format
[04:59] <stickerhappy> by the way, i installed 64bit
[04:59] <Pici> beni: You need to convert the file from img to an iso.
[04:59] <NafNaf> mbt, its not in this case. i have 10mbit free of bandwidth
[04:59] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: then sudo apt-get update
[04:59] <beni> Pici: how? ;)
[04:59] <wlfR> Stevethepirate, Grip encodes everything to .wav?
[04:59] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: then sudo apt-get upgrade
[04:59] <xl_peter> i want to make a ubuntu server! is it possible to make the other users using windows make a login with pass always they want to acces the internet?
[04:59] <NafNaf> its a codec problem
[05:00] <Pici> !iso | beni theres a lnk here with some tools to convert it:
[05:00] <ubotu> beni theres a lnk here with some tools to convert it:: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[05:00] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: ohh i see, so you don't even reach the desktop? have you tried selecting "safe graphics mode" in this menu?
[05:00] <yondie> Pici: no need to do dat
[05:00] <mbt> NafNaf, and everything between you and the radio station is clear?  I have 8mbit service, but certain stations I listen to are very flaky in their delivery.  If it were a codec problem it is not likely you would be hearing anything at all.
[05:00] <beni> Pici love you
[05:00] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: if not, you can try to download "alternate livecd" - available from the same mirrors as normal livecd
[05:00] <Pici> :)
[05:00] <cotyrothery> was it sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt
[05:00] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: alternate cd contains text-based installer i think
[05:00] <NafNaf> i just dont know how to find out which of the codecs from medibuntu.org xmms uses to process this MP3 stream
[05:00] <DrFrasierCrane> so it should at least let you install the system
[05:01] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: yes from the dir where it download cd to that download dir
[05:01] <NafNaf> mbt, dude. please focus on my problem or let other people help
[05:01] <Sp4rKy> NafNaf: w32codecs ?
[05:01] <yondie> beni : mount -t iso9660 -o loop theimagename.img /mnt/somewhere
[05:01] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: i think its in your home folder
[05:01] <Ind[y] > My wireless network has a pass. I gave it once, and Keyring Manager wanted me to create a password. I did so, and now it prompts me for that password each time I turn on my pc (and it tries to connect to my network). How can I set it not to ask me for that password but connect automatically?
[05:01] <mbt> NafNaf, I am.  Your problem isn't codecs from medibuntu.  The LAME and MAD libraries are generally used for playing MP3 streams.
[05:01] <cotyrothery> spiderfire ok
[05:01] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: to get there you can just type cd
[05:01] <cotyrothery> so yea
[05:01] <cotyrothery> what do i do once im there
[05:02] <spiderfire> jus sec
[05:02] <NafNaf> mbt, then stop questioning bandwidth quality. this is not the problem here.
[05:02] <stickerhappy> DrFrasier: yup, when i chose the start ubuntu, it loads something (i think kernel)
[05:02] <mbt> NafNaf, which, you'll probably notice, have nothing to do with other (movie) codecs.
[05:02] <stickerhappy> DrFrasier: and then it just goes blackout
[05:02] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: any error messages ? or just a black screen ?
[05:02] <mbt> NafNaf, You must work at the radio station to be able to say that so surely?
[05:02] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: what gfx card do you have ?
[05:02] <arreola> Beginner Here- Looking for help with my wireless notebook card - in the Device Manager it shows up as Marvell 88w8335 - I'm using WEP and on Feisty.....
[05:02] <NafNaf> mbt, dude. the context is the movie codecs because i added the medibuntu.org source because of that. and a few other multimedia related things got updated
[05:03] <mbt> NafNaf, then go back to ubuntu-supported things.
[05:03] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: just type sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt
[05:03] <stickerhappy> ati pci-ex
[05:03] <NafNaf> mbt, you are great help. i slowly get aggressive about your attitude and i have still no solution
[05:03] <cotyrothery> spiderfire: i have an idea why dont i install the ubuntu-desktop
[05:03] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: hmm, me too, which radeon ? i have x1950 and it works
[05:03] <cotyrothery> then reinstall it
[05:03] <mbt> If you're using third party packages that are fussing with other things (sound servers, perhaps, or anything else), then that is a problem.
[05:03] <NafNaf> bla bla bla
[05:03] <yondie> mbt?
