[07:16] <Manstein> ITSa341, well, i can see how that has helped u out :D
[07:16] <Cyber> cha0tic, thats why im here, i dont know how :/ every time i run the installer and set up new partitions is just crashes again later on in the install
[07:16] <hubag_ni_ate> hello people
[07:17] <Cyber> and i tried format but bash doesnt know what im talking about, aswell as man format produces no help \:
[07:17] <Manstein> Cyber, check on the manufacurer's website for diagnostic tools and check for WARRANTY asap
[07:17] <cha0t1c> oh reformat before u install, or run the installer, if it still crashes redownload the installation CD
[07:17] <hubag_ni_ate> no help for step by step installation
[07:18] <Cyber> manstein this hard drive is long dead lol :) its an older one
[07:18] <hubag_ni_ate> hehehe
[07:18] <cha0t1c> lol Cyber
[07:18] <Cyber> cha0tic how do i reformat before i install
[07:18] <Manstein> Cyber, nvm then :D
[07:18] <hubag_ni_ate> better get a new SATA drive
[07:18] <ITSa341> My bro shipped a 2yr old drive back to WD last friday, the replacement ( upgraded model even ) came in today.
[07:18] <cha0t1c> if u have windows, attch it use windows to reformat
[07:19] <hubag_ni_ate> western digital crash very often
[07:19] <Cyber> nah ch0tic thats a mission adn a half :/ i would prefer to just format it from linix, i got a terminal open infront of me
[07:19] <stubblechin> i have a server with dapper on it, raid1 setup with three scsi drives and the ext3 filesystem. i want to resize one of the partitions so i can create a partition for lvm, and i have no way of being physically present in front of the machine so i have to do it with the server running. what do i do?
[07:19] <ITSa341> first one I've ever had fail
[07:19] <cha0t1c> I ahven't had a crash and i'm running 2 raptors and a barracuda
[07:19] <hubag_ni_ate> WD is not a good choice
[07:20] <Manstein> ITSa341, my 2gb is a WD as well :D
[07:20] <ITSa341> only drives I've ever had any bad luck with really was MDT
[07:20] <Manstein> well, i haven't had MUCH problems with WDC
[07:20] <ITSa341> 30% failure rate last year on the MDT drives in our shop and we do use a lot of drives
[07:20] <cpk1> stubblechin: unmount the drive you are partitioning?
[07:20] <Manstein> MDT?
[07:20] <Cyber> ok guys how would i format the HD from linux, there is a terminal open in front of me i just need the syn
[07:20] <Cyber> =D
[07:21] <hubag_ni_ate> better get a SEAGATE or MAXTOR or SAMSUNG
[07:21] <stubblechin> cpk1: the partitions i have are /, /home, and /boot. i'm afraid to unmount any of them with the server running
[07:21] <ITSa341> Magnetic Data Technologies I think.
[07:21] <Manstein> ok, they make HDD's :S. Never knew
[07:21] <grndslm> SEAGATE!!!!!!!
[07:21] <deusjevoo> no Maxtor
[07:21] <deusjevoo> maxtor has sata problems
[07:21] <Cyber> ok guys how would i format the HD from linux, there is a terminal open in front of me i just need the syntax
[07:22] <hubag_ni_ate> no WESTERN digital
[07:22] <cpk1> doesnt seagate own maxtor?
[07:22] <Manstein> Cyber, i think it's something like mke2fs -j /dev/hdx1
[07:22] <jair> hey guys there is a rar application gnu for debian to work with .rar cpmpressed systems?
[07:22] <Manstein> but then again, i'm just new to linux
[07:22] <deusjevoo> yes, seagate does own them
[07:22] <cha0t1c> ok Cyber, try to reformat away from linux if it failed so many times
[07:22] <hubag_ni_ate> whos info was that
[07:22] <Manstein> Cyber, Ull probably have to sudo that
[07:23] <Cyber> cha0tic it was just the installer that crashed, half way through installing the system, it formated tho
[07:23] <Cyber> i need the correct syn :P
[07:23] <ITSa341> Cyber   try burning the install disk at 2x or 4x and try again
[07:23] <stubblechin> is there a irc room for ubuntu server, or is this pretty much it?
[07:23] <cha0t1c> oh that's excellent i thought the installer might have been corrupeted
[07:23] <cpk1> stubblechin: are they all on the same physical drive? my / and /home are on 2 different drives so i can unmount home relatively easy/not so dangerously
[07:23] <Manstein> Hey, the Ubuntu disks feature an option " check cd integrety" or something like that
[07:24] <Manstein> ever tried that cyber?
[07:24] <cha0t1c> yup u shud use that
[07:24] <ITSa341> Manstein   good call
[07:24] <Manstein> its one of the boot options of the live cd
[07:24] <Cyber> nah the installer crashes half way through because of a currupt file system, i have checked the CD
[07:24] <cha0t1c> yup
[07:24] <stubblechin> cpk1: i have raid1, so i think all three of them are spread over all three of my drives
[07:24] <Cyber> nothing wrong with it
[07:24] <stubblechin> software raid1
[07:24] <Cyber> i got this CD from buntu :P
[07:24] <Cyber> they sent it to me
[07:24] <Manstein> mm have u tried another cdrom/dvdrom DRIVE ? just for the sake of it?
[07:24] <ITSa341> ahh cool
[07:25] <cha0t1c> hmm, ok well, i'm outta ideas
[07:25] <slop> is it possible to get mozilla-mplayer to play streaming wmv files?
[07:25] <Cyber> manstein ive installed from that drive onto a virtual machine
[07:25] <stubblechin> cpk1: sorry, there are only two drives. sda and sdb. three partitions
[07:25] <Cyber> !format
[07:25] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[07:25] <cha0t1c> i'm also new to ubuntu and this screen issue is killing me
[07:25] <Cyber> ...!
[07:25] <ITSa341> Cyber are you doing the partitioning manually or letting it do the recommended ?
[07:25] <Cyber> its ive tried both methods :/
[07:25] <Cyber> both crash
[07:25] <Cyber> its the file system for some reason
[07:25] <ITSa341> hmm wierd
[07:25] <kugmuntu> nyay
[07:26] <Cyber> gonna check the manual on mkfs now
[07:26] <Manstein> Are there any raid volumes present in the System Cyber?
[07:26] <Cyber> nope
[07:27] <Manstein> well out of ideas here
[07:27] <cha0t1c> brb
[07:27] <deusjevoo> cyber: you get read or write errors?

[07:36] <kwilliams0> hello, bit of a newbie here.  I have a new Dell e521, running a AMD Athlon 4600, with integrated nic (Broadcom from lspci).  I've installed successfully, but I don't have any internet access.  I type ifconfig, and I see eth0, I just don't get an IP address (DHCP), and when I statically set it, I can't see anything on the network.  Thing is, if I boot to the x86 drake CD, my network works fine.  Any ideas how to troubleshoot?
[07:36] <Cyber> hmm
[07:36] <Manstein> Did u edit the sources.list file urself gharz?
[07:37] <Cyber> seems ive got it formatting
[07:37] <Cyber> !ping
[07:37] <ubotu> ping: network unreachable
[07:37] <noelferreira_>  how can i have four primary partitions at only one hard drive?
[07:37] <gharz> Manstein, i just copied previously
[07:37] <gharz> Manstein, from a certain site.
[07:37] <gharz> Manstein, and now i can't remember which is which
[07:38] <Manstein> well what it basicly says is that apt-get is not sure one of the entries in sources.list is trustworthy
[07:38] <Manstein> i GUESS
[07:39] <nothlit> Yeah, you need to install the ubuntu trusted keys
[07:39] <varsendaggr> i need to get a fps like ut   how should i install it?
[07:39] <gharz> Manstein, uhmmm... thanks. i'll try to search which source is it.
[07:39] <nothlit> reinstall ubuntu-keyring
[07:39] <Manstein> well GL
[07:40] <dbcalo> does anyone her know much about cedega on edgy?
[07:40] <dbcalo> hard locks the system when i run it.
[07:40] <Manstein> which game are u trying to emulate?
[07:40] <dbcalo> haven't got to games yet. cedega itself hard locks the system.
[07:41] <nothlit> dbcalo #cedega
[07:41] <dbcalo> been there, trying to broaden my search.
[07:41] <Manstein> dbcalo, i'm running WoW on Wine, no problems
[07:41] <Manstein> first game ever on Linux
[07:41] <SeyToN> can you crack cedega?
[07:41] <Manstein> wasn't that much of a proble
[07:41] <Manstein> m
[07:41] <dbcalo> tired that but the cursor was always on top.
[07:42] <Manstein> i had that but only in D3D mode
[07:42] <dbcalo> ahh
[07:42] <Cas> I think my apt db is borked, is there a way to regenerate everything (e.g. by deleting /var/cache/apt) ?currently all the apt* programs give me a segfault
[07:42] <dbcalo> latest version of wine?
[07:42] <Pie-rate> This is really, really, really, really, weird. It has to be a bug. When I move my (totally working) WoW launcher from the desktop to the panel, it stops working.
[07:43] <Manstein> latest is 0.9.9 ?
[07:43] <Manstein> i'm using 0.9.26
[07:43] <Pie-rate> when i make a new launcher on the panel, it doesn't work
[07:43] <stalefries> Pie-rate: does your launcher use a relative path to the executable?
[07:43] <Pie-rate> when i make a shell script that cds to the WoW directory and runs it, it doesn't work.
[07:43] <Pie-rate> stalefries: no
[07:43] <Manstein> Pie-rate are u using cedega of wine?
[07:43] <Pie-rate> wine
[07:43] <stalefries> Pie-rate: what errors do oyu get?
[07:43] <stalefries> *you
[07:43] <Pie-rate> no errors
[07:43] <dbcalo> think i was using 0.9.6
[07:44] <Manstein> Pie-rate, what version of wine/
[07:44] <Pie-rate> 0.9.26
[07:44] <Manstein> what gpu?
[07:44] <nothlit> Pie-rate, are you using wine c:/Program\ Files..?.
[07:44] <Pie-rate> that shouldn't matter, it works from the desktop

[07:45] <[Ag0ny] > <[Ag0ny] > can anybody help me switch from gcj to sun's jdk ? I've already installed the jdk but I'm having trouble switching the default associations
[07:45] <Pie-rate> manstein, if you must know, its an evga nvidia geforce 7800gt
[07:45] <edbe> I'm running xfce & want to start amarok that hide in a 'virtual kde panel' ... how to make amarok start WITHOUT going to the panel?
[07:46] <[Ag0ny] > disregard the blatant fact that I copied it from another channel, I haven't gotten an answer anywhere yet
[07:46] <edbe> I know .... just delete all config files related to amarok ... no?
[07:46] <nothlit> Pie-rate, did you try a shell script in PATH that uses an a absolute path?
[07:46] <belfegorash> do you know a good mp3 player ?
[07:46] <belfegorash> for ubuntu
[07:46] <stalefries> belfegorash: rhythmbox, xmms, banshee, beep media player, etc
[07:46] <Pie-rate> nothlit, no, but i tried a shell script in /home/jschall, i'll move it to /usr/bin
[07:46] <stalefries> !mp3 | belfegorash
[07:46] <ubotu> belfegorash: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:46] <Manstein> Pie-rate, i misread, i thought u couldn't get it to work in the first place.
[07:46] <Cas> belfegorash: beep-media-player if you like winamp like, or amarok if you like iTunes like
[07:46] <belfegorash> ok thank you
[07:47] <nothlit> theres xmms, exaile, banshee, muine, quodlibet, and listen as well
[07:47] <Manstein> which one do u guys use btw :D
[07:47] <Pie-rate> nothlit, moving it to /usr/bin worked
[07:47] <nothlit> Pie-rate, yayyyy :)
[07:47] <Manstein> gratz
[07:47] <edbe> bastard ... amarok still hides in a virtual kde panel
[07:48] <belfegorash> i have xmms i will stay on this thanks
[07:48] <dbcalo> can someone read my error output and help me figure out what it means? http://transgaming.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7404
[07:48] <varsendaggr> i like mplayer
[07:48] <varsendaggr> and xmms
[07:48] <stalefries> Pie-rate: it's suggested you put it in /usr/local/bin, to follow conventions
[07:49] <Pie-rate> stalefries: done
[07:49] <Pie-rate> what conventions are these anyway?
[07:49] <stalefries> Pie-rate: good. That's the "conventional" place for users' hand-installed binaries
[07:50] <stalefries> Pie-rate: basically, if you use nautilus to install it, put it there :)
[07:50] <nothlit> Pie-rate, local is for anything specific to that computer
[07:50] <dope> is there any major difference between kubuntu and ubuntu besides gnome/kde?
[07:50] <nothlit> Pie-rate, rather than a system wide thing
[07:50] <Pie-rate> dope: no
[07:50] <dope> :O
[07:51] <stalefries> dope: not really, some gnome/kde specific apps perhaps
[07:51] <Pie-rate> you can turn ubuntu into kubuntu by typing sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:51] <isaac_> Hello
[07:51] <dope> heh
[07:51] <stalefries> !-desktop | dope
[07:51] <ubotu> dope: desktop is <alias> desktops - added by Seveas on 2006-06-19 11:23:31
[07:51] <nothlit> dope, kubuntu still has gnome-app-install i think
[07:51] <stalefries> !desktop | dope
[07:51] <ubotu> dope: The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are Gnome (ubuntu-desktop), KDE (kubuntu-desktop), XCFE (xubuntu-desktop), IceWM, Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM  and others.
[07:51] <stalefries> rather
[07:51] <Manstein> What do u guys advice, gnome / kde ?
[07:51] <dope> i think gnome?
[07:51] <stalefries> Manstein: don't start that flamewar, please :).  KDE is for you :) (please don't kill me everyone :()
[07:53] <varsendaggr> Manstein, use them both and then make a choice.....    use fluxbox a little to
[07:53] <dbcalo> ok, so i think my problem is that my custom kernel is busted. the only reason i compiled is becuase i couldn't get the lastest nv drivers to build a kernel module for the common kernel.
[07:53] <isaac_>  I tried to install mysql, and i can't put the password, and it response an error
[07:53] <Manstein> no flame intended, gnome is just my first installation, never used kde before
[07:53] <isaac_> error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
[07:53] <isaac_> Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!
[07:53] <stalefries> Manstein: right, but you know how these things end up :)
[07:53] <Manstein> yups, i ought to know better :/
[07:54] <Manstein> what have i done :D?
[07:54] <varsendaggr> use kde but leave before it makes you too hard.  use gnome but leave before it makes you too soft and use sunscreen
[07:54] <nothlit> Manstein, i use neither, if that helps
[07:54] <joe7d6> urgent help folks, anyone out there experienced with aiglx + ati config. help would be appreaciated TIA :)
[07:54] <Manstein> ur just running shell?
[07:54] <nothlit> isaac_, sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start

[07:56] <nothlit> xgl was first
[07:56] <nothlit> so it all just gets redirected there for general help
[07:56] <richiefrich> isaac_ did you install it ?
[07:56] <stalefries> ah
[07:56] <Manstein> stalefries: Gnome it will stay then
[07:56] <isaac_> richiefrich... it response the same error

[07:57] <nothlit> isaac_, sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[07:57] <cmt^^> Hey guys
[07:57] <stalefries> FaithX: are you browsing the web?
[07:57] <FaithX> Nope
[07:57] <stalefries> !hi | cmt^^
[07:57] <ubotu> cmt^^: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:57] <cmt^^> what's the longest vpenis you've seen? (virtual penis)
[07:57] <nothlit> cmt^^, inappropriate
[07:57] <edbe> I believe my ubuntu is bloated ... but I just do not know from where should I start to make it leaner & less fatty
[07:57] <stalefries> cmt^^: that belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic, I think
[07:58] <FaithX> edbe: xubuntu
[07:58] <nothlit> stalefries, no ubuntu-offtopic is pg
[07:58] <edbe> I have xubuntu kubuntu ubuntu
[07:58] <richiefrich> isaac_ start it 1st
[07:58] <stalefries> nothlit:  pg?
[07:58] <kwilliams0> ok, how do I figure out what is on each irq channel?
[07:58] <cmt^^> come on, it's a system-info-script
[07:58] <nothlit> stalefries, sry not pg, 'family-friendly'
[07:58] <stalefries> nothlit: oh, ok
[07:59] <cmt^^> stalefries - nothlit - it's not what it sounds like
[07:59] <isaac_> i  can start mysql :S
[07:59] <edbe> to any experience linux user here ,,, after sometimes do you feel that your system is 'bloated' too ... and you dont really experience the same thing with any other distros before?
[07:59] <richiefrich> isaac_ :)
[07:59] <nothlit> cmt^^, regardless, don't use that word
[07:59] <isaac_> sorry, i can't start mysql
[08:00] <stalefries> edbe: sure, I get that feeling, then I uninstall some programs I don't use and feel better :)
[08:00] <nothlit> edbe, ubuntu is relatively bloated compared to other distros
[08:00] <Cyber_Stalker> hmm
[08:00] <FaithX> It is not my box... I installed it... but apparently you can just login and wait... then a fullscreen will appear
[08:00] <cmt^^> nothlit - i'm so sorry then
[08:00] <edbe> thanks nothlit ... I'm not an orphan now ... but do you know why?
[08:00] <Cyber> im still having issues, that hard drive that the install kept crashing on, i cant see it from windows to format it :/
[08:01] <nothlit> edbe, no but it sounds offtopic
[08:01] <edbe> stalefries, my laptop has 120GB .... I dont mind throwing 15GB only for anything linux
[08:01] <nothlit> Cyber, put in the ubuntu livecd, then boot it and go to system -> administration -> gparted and format it from there
[08:01] <stalefries> edbe: it's more like a placebo effect than anything :)
[08:01] <edbe> I do the same with other distros too ... but I dont have the feeling that it is 'bloated'
[08:01] <Cyber> heh, would have been nice to have been told that earlyer :P!
[08:02] <edbe> let me start from the services first
[08:02] <Cyber> do you think the hard drive is busted tho? i can see it in linux tho, windows doesnt pick up the drive
[08:02] <edbe> stopping some unnecessary daemons
[08:02] <nothlit> Cyber, probably not
[08:03] <Cyber> just a windows issues
[08:03] <Cyber> issue*
[08:03] <nothlit> A formatting /partition/filesystem issue
[08:04] <Cyber> ok cool
[08:04] <Cyber> let me restart using the live CD & format it using gparted
[08:05] <Cyber> altho nothlit i did use sudo mkfs /dev/hda1
[08:05] <Cyber> wouldnt that format it?
[08:05] <vonguard> hello
[08:05] <SeyToN> hi
[08:05] <vonguard> so, ok
[08:05] <vonguard> i have had a wireless problem for weeks
[08:06] <vonguard> my card will not disassociate with my home network
[08:06] <SeyToN> did u use ndiswrapper or madwifi?
[08:06] <vonguard> in public, it sees nothing, and only has my home network available
[08:06] <vonguard> neither, my card just worked, before
[08:06] <vonguard> it's intel onboard
[08:06] <dsdg> helo, silly question but how do i get a service like ssh to start up automatically when the pc boots in dapper?
[08:07] <vonguard> dsdg: services control panelo in administration menu under system menu
[08:07] <SeyToN> did u configured samba?
[08:07] <dsdg> vonguard, im in with ssh...
[08:07] <dsdg> how do i do this in the shell?
[08:07] <vonguard> oh, then it's a config and an init.d thingie, i bet
[08:07] <vonguard> samba?
[08:08] <Catshrimp> dsdg: are you using openssh-server?
[08:08] <SeyToN> !samba
[08:08] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:08] <vonguard> i think yeah
[08:08] <vonguard> i do have samba running
[08:08] <Catshrimp> dsdg: because I think upon installation it will start automatically.
[08:08] <vonguard> would samba mess with my wireless preferences?
[08:08] <Catshrimp> dsdg: it's at least placed in init.d upon install
[08:08] <paguilera> Hello
[08:09] <vonguard> hello paguilera
[08:09] <SeyToN> whats the issue driver or connection?
[08:09] <paguilera> Hi vonguard.
[08:09] <dsdg> Catshrimp, yes it starts automattically but i want to know where to enable disable startup services,
[08:09] <vonguard> where can i delete my network prefernces?
[08:10] <vonguard> dsdg: init.d
[08:10] <Catshrimp> dsdg: one of the rc's
[08:10] <vonguard> what is that, /var?
[08:10] <vonguard> or /root?
[08:10] <noodles12> how do i fix this problem when compiling in kdevelop for c++
[08:10] <noodles12> "configure: error: cannot run C++ compiled programs.
[08:10] <noodles12> If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
[08:10] <noodles12> "
[08:10] <paguilera> Any ideas as to what I can do to see what's causing firefox to segfault each time I try to start it?
[08:11] <dbcalo> i cant get the nvidia module to compile or load. any tips?
[08:11] <vonguard> noodles12: check yer compile options
[08:11] <SeyToN> vonguard: have a look to this site
[08:11] <SeyToN> https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/configuring-samba.html
[08:11] <noiesmo> paguilera, did it start after you add a new plugin or flash ??
[08:11] <dsdg> Catshrimp, i see the rc.0 rc.1 and files in them, hmm, with gentoo i cant do rc-update add sshd <runlevel>
[08:11] <paguilera> I had tried adding Java plugin earlier this evening, but when it didn't work, I used synaptic to uninstall.
[08:12] <cmt^^> !irssi
[08:12] <ubotu> irssi is a command line interface IRC client ( "sudo apt-get install irssi" without the quotes to try it out )
[08:12] <paguilera> and it had seemed to be working ok.
[08:12] <paguilera> But just a few minutes ago, it crashed as I was browsing multiple sites.
[08:12] <dope> herro
[08:12] <Catshrimp> dsdg: it's the same sort of thing.  rc1.d seems to contain the ssh startup script
[08:12] <vonguard> SeyToN: thanks, but my issue is with wireless card strangeness...
[08:12] <vonguard> not really a samba problem
[08:12] <dope> so i was playing with something and now my login screen comes up but the little ubuntu bar that's supposed to come up right after it and shows stuff being loaded doesn't come up.  what did i do?
[08:12] <vonguard> unless there is some conflict possible that i am unaware of
[08:12] <dope> and i can't get to my desktop
[08:13] <thevenin> why would ubuntu dapper drake server freeze everytime i do this http://pastebin.ca/271481 and require a reboot
[08:13] <noiesmo> paguilera, not sure then sorry have had firefox crash aftr adding extensions or plugin's and removing them has fix the issue
[08:13] <vonguard> dope: perhaps you didled yer graphic card options?
[08:13] <dope> i installed beryl
[08:13] <dope> i think that's what it was
[08:13] <SeyToN> i guess thats a technical problem...
[08:13] <Hooked-on-GL> <3 beryl
[08:13] <vonguard> yeah
[08:13] <dope> and it wasn't workin so i removed and now i'm still screwed
[08:13] <vonguard> it's beryl
[08:13] <paguilera> noiesmo: It actually took me a couple tries to get Java out.  I'm wondering if maybe I didn't get it all the way removed.
[08:13] <michael__> Quick question... I hope... My university uses something called Air Projector that installs to C:\Program Files\komatsu\AirProjector Client.exe - is there any equivalent of this in Linux?
[08:13] <vonguard> check the beryl install sites out there
[08:14] <vonguard> digg had a bunch
[08:14] <dope> i can't get to my desktop :/
[08:14] <vonguard> links
[08:14] <vonguard> sudo apt-get install links
[08:14] <vonguard> or lynx
[08:14] <vonguard> whichever one is in synaptic
[08:14] <vonguard> it's a text-based web browser
[08:14] <paguilera> links is in synaptic
[08:14] <dope> oh
[08:14] <dope> well how do i just get my desktop to come back :(
[08:14] <vonguard> so, install links, then head to google
[08:15] <dope> i've had nothing but problems trying to get beryl or compiz to work
[08:15] <vonguard> trash yer x11 config?
[08:15] <dope> ah crap

[08:16] <noiesmo> paguilera, you could always move your ~/.mozilla directory then when you start firefox it will be recreated if firefox works ok then a file in your profiles .mozilla folder is causeing the problem
[08:16] <vonguard> what a pile
[08:16] <vonguard> everytime i've tried it, it goes sideways
[08:16] <vonguard> automatix works great for me
[08:16] <dope> ugh i don't know what it is
[08:17] <paguilera> noiesmo: Ahh... I didn't think of that.  Thanks.  Trying it now.
[08:17] <noiesmo> paguilera, if it makes no diff move it back

[08:22] <lovloss> beryl's quiet... how do you make it so that when you load beryl it doesnt erase that bar along the top of each window - close, maximize, minimize , etc
[08:23] <cybermad> i can not find Epson LX-300 too... it really worst! :P
[08:23] <Geoffrey2> cybermad, is that a printer with a parallel printer cable?
[08:23] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : java fun ness, is assured
[08:23] <vonguard> one sec
[08:23] <cybermad> Geoffrey2 yes
[08:23] <[Ag0ny] > I'm trying to get eclipse to work, and gcj just doesn't cut it, so I need to pull the association from it and use sun's jre instead
[08:23] <[Ag0ny] > thanks
[08:23] <lovloss> its some sort of string you add to xorg
[08:24] <vonguard> hrmmm
[08:24] <cybermad> Geoffrey2 i want test install the LQ-1170, then LX-300.. ok.. we're discuss the 1st problem LQ-1170
[08:24] <vonguard> ok, [Ag0ny] : uninstall eclipse
[08:24] <dope> that didn't do it
[08:24] <[Ag0ny] > done
[08:24] <vonguard> install jdk from synaptic
[08:24] <[Ag0ny] > I installed in manually
[08:24] <vonguard> is gcj in synaptic?
[08:24] <dope> man i'm so screwed
[08:24] <cybermad> but i already add LaserJet 1100 from HP and it works..
[08:24] <vonguard> dope: yer gonna be ok
[08:24] <vonguard> just breath
[08:24] <[Ag0ny] > I can't find any jre or jdk in synaptic
[08:24] <dope> heh
[08:25] <dope> so what do i do now? :(
[08:25] <vonguard> dope: sudo apt-get install links
[08:25] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : it's in there
[08:25] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : sun made a big stink about putting it in there
[08:25] <nothlit> lovloss, no, that means emerald isn't working properly
[08:25] <paguilera> I believe it's listed under Sun in the S section instead of by itself.
[08:25] <dope> i think beryl fubared my system
[08:26] <vonguard> dope: yer data is still there
[08:26] <vonguard> are you on that box now, dope?
[08:26] <noiesmo> paguilera, is firefox installed thru synaptic
[08:26] <dope> i know but my desktop isn't
[08:26] <dope> yea
[08:26] <vonguard> ok
[08:26] <dope> i'm using the ctrl alt f1 etc keys
[08:26] <vonguard> we just need to get beryl off there
[08:26] <vonguard> you got gnome or kde installed?
[08:26] <dope> gnome
[08:26] <dope> ubuntu
[08:26] <paguilera> noiesmo: Should be.  It's from the basic install.
[08:26] <vonguard> ok, if kde is installed, we could load into that
[08:26] <paguilera> noiesmo: I'll double check now, though.
[08:26] <vonguard> go vi that x11.conf
[08:26] <vonguard> figure out where it says gnome
[08:27] <vonguard> change it to kde
[08:27] <vonguard> right guys?
[08:27] <vonguard> anyone wanna help me out here?
[08:27] <dope> i do
[08:27] <vonguard> i so shouldn't be the one giving out all this tech support
[08:27] <noiesmo> paguilera, you could try sudo apt-get remove --purge mozilla-firefox && sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox that will cause it to be removed and all config files should be purged then it will be reinstalled
[08:28] <vonguard> dope: you get links installed yet?
[08:28] <dope> i think
[08:28] <noiesmo> vonguard, what do you want to do login to kde instead of gnome
[08:28] <nothlit> noiesmo, lol that will break ubuntu-desktop
[08:28] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : the synaptic pkackage is called sun-java-jdk
[08:29] <nothlit> vonguard, elinks/links2/w3m > links
[08:29] <vonguard> noiesmo: dope has installed beryl, and it's gone sideways on him
[08:29] <vonguard> dope cannot log into gnome now. x11 eats it after login
[08:29] <vonguard> i figure kde might work
[08:29] <dope> my login screen comes up
[08:29] <[Ag0ny] > maybe a repository problem? I can't find any jdk or jre package and I have all the multiverse/universe repositories enabeled
[08:29] <paguilera> ok.  What should I be doing then?  If that breaks Ubuntu, it's something I definitely do not want to do.
[08:29] <vonguard> nothlit: i agree
[08:29] <dope> but when i login it's just the background color and a mouse
[08:30] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : go to the section where packages begin with S
[08:30] <Catshrimp> Hm, okay guys, xserver is install, xdm is install.  xorg has been configured as to my current hardware settings.  when I run sudo xdm, I get a blank screen and am then returned to the command prompt.  I checked /var/log/xdm.log and it says "error opening security policy file /etc/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy"
[08:30] <Catshrimp> Anyone have any idea?
[08:30] <vonguard> sun-java5-jdk
[08:30] <vonguard> that's the name of the package
[08:30] <Geoffrey2> cybermad, ah, here we go....if LQ-1170 is not available, EPSON reccomends the LQ-850 as the next best choice, and that IS supported by CUPS, so install that one and see how it works
[08:31] <lovloss> seriously guys. when i load beryl the window at the top bar goes away. always had. I just have to add some obscure command line to xorg.conf
[08:31] <[Ag0ny] > vonguard: I see sunclock and sunclock-maps only
[08:31] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : are you on Edgy?
[08:31] <[Ag0ny] > yes, using kde

[08:32] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : i dunno what to tell you. i see it in my list, and i have multi and uni only
[08:32] <[Ag0ny] > so I have adept instead of synaptic
[08:32] <vonguard> same repositories
[08:32] <cybermad> Geoffrey2 actually right now i tried install Omni package
[08:32] <paguilera> [Ag0ny] : I see it fine on my side.  Are you looking below sunclock?
[08:32] <lovloss> the guys in #beryl are being stupid
[08:32] <necrodrako> whats a good program for clearing temp files

[08:34] <[Ag0ny] > sudo apt-cache search sun-java-jdk yeilds nothing as well
[08:34] <vonguard> yeah, install multi!
[08:34] <nothlit> noiesmo, yeah but if you tell people to break the -desktop metapackages you have to tell them to reinstall them
[08:34] <Geoffrey2> cybermad, I checked Epson's website, downloaded the Product Information Guide for the EPSON LQ-1170....they give a list of printers in order of preference if your particular model is not supported....back in the days of DOS and Windows 3.1, that was a very real possibility
[08:34] <vonguard> enable multiverse
[08:34] <nothlit> noiesmo, otherwise upgrades won't work well
[08:34] <dope> i'm still screwed
[08:35] <dope> ok brb
[08:35] <[Ag0ny] > that's what I meant by backports, sorry
[08:35] <noiesmo> nothlit, good point I did reinstall kubuntu-desktop when I upgraded from dapper to edgy :) then removed it lol
[08:35] <vonguard> i agree
[08:36] <Pie-rate> I want to run a game server, i want it to start when i start my computer, and i want it to automatically restart if/when it crashes. how would i write a script (or several scripts) to do these things?
[08:37] <nothlit> !offtopic | Pie-rate
[08:37] <ubotu> Pie-rate: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:37] <sushi_> what sort command could i use to sort the passwd file by UID?
[08:38] <vonguard> Pie-rate: diddle init.d
[08:38] <Geoffrey2> I presume the next Ubuntu release would be 7.xx?
[08:38] <vonguard> sushi_: perhaps grep?
[08:38] <[Ag0ny] > ok vonguard, I found the sun java jdk package, I took off multiverse and universe and re-added them and updated
[08:39] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : nice
[08:39] <vonguard> then do eclipse again
[08:39] <vonguard> make sure to uninstall gcj!
[08:40] <[Ag0ny] > ffs
[08:40] <[Ag0ny] > now it crashes
[08:40] <[Ag0ny] > I'll do it from command line
[08:40] <vonguard> doh
[08:40] <[Ag0ny] > and... I get a goddamn segmentation fault?!
[08:40] <[Ag0ny] > wtf can't people code right?
[08:41] <nothlit> !java
[08:41] <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
[08:42] <CountDown> I recently upgraded to Edgy and found that neither Ubuntu's default network monitor nor network-manager work properly anymore.  In particular, wireless networks are not handled by either.  I have to manually go into /etc/network/interfaces to configure a wireless network now.  Anyone else have similar problems and know of a solution?
[08:42] <x-r00t-x> mecan anyone tell me who do i change ubuntu screen after grub menu and before login screen
[08:42] <Catshrimp> Meh, okay, I found the culprit.  I appears not only xserver-xorg needs to be installed, but also x-window-system-core
[08:42] <Geoffrey2> anyone tried Flash 9 for Windows under wine?  Does that work better under Ubuntu than the Flash 9 Beta for Linux does at present?
[08:43] <vonguard> CountDown: I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM!
[08:43] <vonguard> and i cannot find an answer!
[08:43] <x-r00t-x> vonguard, what problem?
[08:43] <CountDown> vonguard: I'm running on an IBM T42p.  What are you using?
[08:44] <vonguard> the network manager is borrked
[08:44] <CountDown> x-r00t-x: See my post above.
[08:44] <vonguard> Asus Az3000
[08:44] <dawkirst> Hi. This is off-topic, but I figured you guys would probably know: what brand of laptop should I be looking at when buying?
[08:44] <vonguard> weird laptop, but it's an intel chipset
[08:44] <vonguard> dawkirst: dell for price, apple for quality
[08:45] <Stork> help, i don't know my sudo password, but do know my root password. what can i do?
[08:45] <Cobain> dawkirst, im happy with my latitude d620
[08:45] <Cobain> cost $900
[08:45] <x-r00t-x> oh man i naver had problem like that so i am sorry
[08:45] <vonguard> Stork: yer sudo password is yer root password
[08:45] <Cobain> dell outlet is the best
[08:45] <CountDown> vonguard: You have the same problem with both network monitor and network manager?
[08:45] <dawkirst> vonguard: why Dell?
[08:45] <vonguard> Dell is cheapest
[08:45] <vonguard> $399, can't beat it
[08:45] <vonguard> CountDown: i have a major network manager problem
[08:45] <Cobain> latitudes come with a 3 year next business day on site warranty standard
[08:46] <Stork> vonguard, it can't be. the root password doesn't work with sudo
[08:46] <jamesbrose> How Do i change the resolution in the boot loading screen and the shutdown screen?
[08:46] <dawkirst> Thanks; what about IBM / Lenovo?
[08:46] <vonguard> CountDown: i can't see any wireless activity outside of my home network's. even when miles away
[08:46] <Tomcat_> Stork: sudo password = user password
[08:46] <Cobain> whoa google is down?
[08:46] <vonguard> no, google is not down
[08:46] <davor> Cobain umm, nope
[08:46] <Cobain> nm back up..
[08:46] <vonguard> yer probably having dns issues
[08:46] <davor> Cobain lol
[08:46] <Cobain> no it was a google message
[08:47] <vonguard> really?
[08:47] <vonguard> heh
[08:47] <paguilera> Hmm... well, that didn't work.
[08:47] <CountDown> vonguard: Yeah, it seems to work on booting up, but afterward goes kaput.
[08:47] <Cobain> said something about "we are having technical problems"
[08:47] <vonguard> CountDown: mine doesn't work at all
[08:47] <Cobain> really old google logo too
[08:47] <x-r00t-x> vonguard, can you tell me the price of core 2 duo laptop price ?
[08:47] <irc> how do you install KDE and XORG when I didn't install the GUI in the first place.
[08:47] <vonguard> CountDown: i used to have issues in dapper, on a different rig. ethereal would pull all traffic for 5 seconds, then see nothing
[08:47] <belfegorash> when i switch user and try to login with root ...the password said that is invalid why?
[08:47] <vonguard> x-r00t-x: no, but the web can
[08:48] <x-r00t-x> irc, kde right ? ok try apt-get install kde-desktop
[08:48] <[Ag0ny] > ok vonguard rebuilt my repository list again and finally got apt-get to let me try an install of sun-java5-jdk
[08:48] <x-r00t-x> vonguard, find the price for me dude :D
[08:48] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : good luck
[08:48] <vonguard> x-r00t-x: dood, come on. you can do this! besides, apple's are 1099
[08:48] <irc> r00tZ thanks bro.  I really appreciate it.
[08:49] <x-r00t-x> irc,  you are welcome
[08:49] <vonguard> belfegorash: because ubuntu does not like it when you login as root
[08:49] <x-r00t-x> irc, if you want to install gnome . apt-get install gnome-desktop
[08:49] <vonguard> belfegorash: it prefers you to login as user, then sudo -s
[08:49] <Cobain> http://www.smokedot.org/screenshot.png
[08:49] <x-r00t-x> irc,  and i dont know about XORG
[08:49] <belfegorash> aha ok thanku u
[08:50] <irc> x-r00t-x: i think it's just a matter of apt-get install xorg...
[08:50] <Cobain> no one else keeps getting that message randomly? maybe its just with the customized page
[08:50] <vonguard> yeah
[08:50] <vonguard> google looks fine to me
[08:51] <x-r00t-x> irc,  maybe its something like xorg-desktop or xorg . you may try ubuntuguide.org
[08:51] <mneptok> sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
[08:51] <jamesbrose> How Do i change the resolution in the boot loading screen and the shutdown screen?
[08:52] <mneptok> but gnome-desktop depends on xserver-xorg, so it should resolve for that dep when you install gnome
[08:52] <x-r00t-x> jamesbrose, umm where ? i didnt get you
[08:52] <mneptok> jamesbrose: by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:52] <Catshrimp> irc: you need to apt-get install kubuntu-desktop to get the kde desktop
 I have a 15 inch lcd, what do i need to change?
[08:54] <x-r00t-x> jamesbrose,   vga=785

[08:54] <vonguard> eh, who cares
[08:54] <jamesbrose> what about depth, Do i need to add something for that?
[08:54] <vonguard> i'm not offended
[08:54] <x-r00t-x> mneptok, i know the rules. ok?
[08:55] <vonguard> jamesbrose: depth is the number of colors
[08:55] <mneptok> x-r00t-x: then please don't paste flood ;)
[08:55] <x-r00t-x> jamesbrose,  find # defoptions=quiet splash
[08:55] <x-r00t-x> mneptok,  its was my mistake. get it ?
[08:55] <mneptok> x-r00t-x: apology accepted.
[08:55] <jamesbrose> kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.17-10-386 root=/dev/hdd3 ro quiet splash vga=791
[08:55] <jamesbrose> correct?
[08:56] <mneptok> correct
[08:56] <x-r00t-x> yes
[08:56] <mneptok> jamesbrose: you can add that parameter to the commented section that gets automatically added with kernel updates
[08:56] <Lovloss> #beryl is silent and dead, but i *REALLY* need someone who knows this stuff :,(
[08:56] <jamesbrose> ok
[08:56] <mneptok> (just do not uncomment it)
[08:57] <Lovloss> every single time i install it, it seems like i get an error starting x after a rooboot
[08:57] <Lovloss> *re
[08:57] <vonguard> Lovloss: check digg for beryl links>
[08:57] <vonguard> ?
[08:57] <vonguard> lots of howtos there
[08:57] <x-r00t-x> Lovloss, everyone knew that :P
[08:57] <Lovloss> I had a guy who made the beryl official website walk me through installation
[08:57] <vonguard> heh, beryl = beta!
[08:58] <[Ag0ny] > :> it crashes
[08:58] <x-r00t-x> he didnt update the grub . sudo update-grub
[08:58] <[Ag0ny] > :(
[08:58] <x-r00t-x> :S
[08:58] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : oh no!
[08:58] <x-r00t-x> crash what?
[08:58] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : have you first uninstalled gcj?
[08:58] <[Ag0ny] > yeup
[08:58] <vonguard> [Ag0ny]  is having problems with the KDE equivalent of Synaptic
[08:59] <Lovloss> Look, i think the problem is that i downloaded an nvidia driver. the errors it gives me are all nvidia
[08:59] <Justy-> Hello, good morning everybody
[08:59] <vonguard> hi
[08:59] <mneptok> [Ag0ny] : do the command line tools work (apt-get, aptitude, etc)?
[08:59] <belfegorash> when in instal ubuntu imust instal and drivers?
[08:59] <[Ag0ny] > :/ hold on
[08:59] <[Ag0ny] > I've been using the command line tools sofar since I gave up on adept
[09:00] <Catshrimp> belfegorash: depends on your hardware config
[09:00] <Lovloss> does anyone know how to go about choosing an nvidia driver for your architecture? Im using a Geforce FX 5500 and my CPU is 1.5 ghz with a cache of 64 kb
[09:00] <belfegorash> is old
[09:00] <vonguard> belfegorash: it should handle it, but for advanced graphics cards, like new nvidias, you have to install the company's version
[09:00] <mneptok> [Ag0ny] : so that's yes, the CLI tools work?
[09:00] <Catshrimp> belfegorash: probably not then
[09:00] <belfegorash> i have nvidia geforce 4 mx
[09:00] <[Ag0ny] > yes
[09:00] <belfegorash> is old
[09:00] <[Ag0ny] > sort of
[09:00] <Catshrimp> belfegorash: probably not then
[09:00] <[Ag0ny] > the eclipse I installed crashes
[09:00] <x-r00t-x> mneptok, hey can you paste your grub.lst to pastebin ? plesae...
[09:00] <vonguard> belfegorash: that card is very underpowered, it may not do even the simplest things
[09:00] <[Ag0ny] > jdk seems fine though
[09:00] <mneptok> [Ag0ny] : and you're trying to use Adept?
[09:00] <belfegorash> ok thanks
[09:00] <[Ag0ny] > not anymore
[09:01] <[Ag0ny] > I can function on a cli
[09:01] <vonguard> heh
[09:01] <mneptok> [Ag0ny] : so ... you want help with Adept, Eclipse, or .... ?
[09:01] <Cyber> hi guys
[09:01] <vonguard> eclipse is in universe, right?
[09:01] <[Ag0ny] > it's more of getting eclipse to install and work that I'm concerned about
[09:01] <vonguard> [Ag0ny]  wants to install SUn JDK and run Eclipse on it
[09:01] <Lovloss> :( *sits on install disk, knowing that he probably has to clean install ubuntu AGAIN*
[09:02] <Cyber> does this look right?  The following partitions are going to be formatted:
[09:02] <Cyber>      partition #1 of /dev/hdb as ext3
[09:02] <Cyber>      partition #5 of /dev/hdb as swap
[09:02] <vonguard> Lovloss: stay away from xgl and beryl for now
[09:02] <x-r00t-x> Cyber,  maybe
[09:02] <[Ag0ny] > I've successfully apt-got sun-java5-jdk and the eclipse packages and dependencies
[09:02] <x-r00t-x> yes Cyber
[09:02] <vonguard> Cyber: yes
[09:02] <Cyber> thanks x-root
[09:02] <[Ag0ny] > but eclipse crashes on launch
[09:02] <Cyber> i been having such issues with trying to get it set up
[09:02] <[Ag0ny] > and the logs aren't telling me much
[09:02] <Catshrimp> Lovloss: it's not the end of the world.  ask me how many times i've installed operating systems just tonight ;)
[09:02] <Lovloss> *sigh*
[09:02] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : hell
[09:02] <[Ag0ny] > worse
[09:02] <Cyber> so i deleted every thing on the hard drive and left it empty, then i let the auto formater do that
[09:02] <tyrone> vonguard: lol you new and not able to install xgl huh?
[09:03] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : perhaps a restart?
[09:03] <[Ag0ny] > :/
[09:03] <Lovloss> i used to use beryl all the time, just in glx mode with the basic driver, not in aiglx...
[09:03] <Cyber> if this thing crashes while trying to install python again im going to kill some one
[09:03] <[Ag0ny] > we'll see I guess
[09:03] <vonguard> tyrone: i just avoid volotile stuff
[09:03] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, are you trying to make ubuntu default
[09:03] <vonguard> tyrone: i use ubuntu on my work machine, so i don't want to have turbulence.
[09:03] <Cyber> yea, its a clean hard drive
[09:03] <Lovloss> I wonder if my hardware is too crappy for AIXGL
[09:03] <tyrone> vonguard: i got the nicks confused nvm
[09:03] <Cyber> it must be the only OS on the system
[09:03] <x-r00t-x> Cyber,  then have fun :D
[09:03] <Cyber> lol why u say taht?
[09:03] <Cyber> some whint wrong in that config?

[09:16] <vonguard> yeah, good idea x-r00t-x
[09:16] <Lovloss> Does anyone know the oslution?
[09:16] <Cyber> done that x-root-x, for both cd's and there are no problems
[09:16] <vonguard> Lovloss: go to nvidia.com and get the drivers
[09:16] <nicholaspaul> Does anyone here know the diff between Ubuntu and Yellow Dog?
[09:16] <tyrone> CVirus: maybe you convict me to start playing it
[09:16] <Lovloss> I already installed an nvidia driver
[09:17] <Catshrimp> tyrone: best of luck to you
[09:17] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: yellow dog is it's own little linux distro for mac
[09:17] <belfegorash> it doesnt work....
[09:17] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: ubuntu is a debian-based distribution built in South Africa by people who talk funny
[09:17] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: oh i see. Should it operate similar to Ubuntu on ppc?
[09:17] <CVirus> tyrone: I haven't started playing it yet as i cant get it working on my Intel ... it needs an nvidia or an ATI ... thats why I need support getting it to work on Intel
[09:17] <tyrone> Catshrimp: thx ^^ i'll just eat enough choc santas then i'll be ok
[09:17] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: oh i talk funny too.. lol!
[09:17] <Cyber> LOL vonguard i dont talk funny
[09:17] <Cyber> !!!
[09:17] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: well, similar in the same way that the mac os 9 is similar to mac os 7
[09:17] <vonguard> like.... same programs, different looks and behaviors
[09:18] <Cyber> but yea, here is the paste of the error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35896/ i can paste the full install log if you like?
[09:18] <Lovloss> vonguard: I installed nvidia driver x86 i think
[09:18] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: aah. so commands should be similar?
[09:18] <tyrone> free medieval fantasy?
[09:18] <vonguard> Cyber: i think all south africans talk funny
[09:18] <CVirus> tyrone: www.Tibia.com
[09:18] <vonguard> in the same way new yorkers talk funny
[09:18] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: some think I'm south african! heheh
[09:18] <vonguard> and australians talk funny
[09:18] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  and americans ;)
[09:18] <Cyber> i am south african =D
[09:18] <vonguard> most of all
[09:19] <vonguard> americans talk like they have sticks up their butts
[09:19] <meshyf> Is there a fairly easy way to get WPA encryption with my wifi card working?
[09:19] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  dont knock it til you try it...
[09:19] <tyrone> CVirus: damn you must be kiddin... you don't need any accerlation for this lol
[09:19] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: hahah
[09:19] <tyrone> it looks like crap :-)
[09:19] <belfegorash> i trywith /usr/bin/ and i find clamscan...but it doesnt open
[09:19] <vonguard> meshyf: not that i know of
[09:19] <vonguard> i have hella wireless problems
[09:19] <CVirus> tyrone: I know
[09:19] <meshyf> Bummer :|
[09:19] <vonguard> to use the american phrasing
[09:19] <Cyber> how do i fix my error!
[09:19] <Cyber> some one!!!!!!!!!!!!
[09:20] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: i'm just worried that if i get into YDL that it will be a whole new set of problems. It does seem to install on ppc easier.
[09:20] <vonguard> Cyber: did you try x-r00t-x's suggestion?
[09:20] <tyrone> CVirus: so why would you need an ati or nv vga in order to play this?? o_0
[09:20] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: it would be
[09:20] <Cyber> vonguard: yes, before he suggested it, ive check both CD's and there are no problems on them
[09:20] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: my advice? use ubuntu
[09:20] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  uh oh. so i should forget all i've learned?! [yea i'm thinking i should too... ]
[09:20] <vonguard> Cyber: he suggested checking the disk
[09:20] <vonguard> Cyber: not the cd's
[09:21] <Cyber> check the disk? how ??
[09:21] <Lovloss> Im just getting zero help. I did *exactly* as people said to do to set up a new directx driver and beryl, and both times ive booted up and got a big "cant load x!" message
[09:21] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: well, yellowdog, as far as i know, does not have much steam behind it. small developer group
[09:21] <Lovloss> im at wits end
[09:21] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: ubuntu is on fire. lots of movement and advancing.
[09:21] <belfegorash> how can i open clamscan?is executable,with what?
[09:21] <vonguard> Lovloss: dude, give up on beryl
[09:21] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  oh yes, The forum is pretty quiet.
[09:21] <Lovloss> vonguard: I like beryl.
[09:22] <Cyber> u mean the HD right? but if the HD is borked, why can i see it in g-parted!!!! hey vonguard?
[09:22] <Lovloss> vonguard: and i enjoyed using it a lot before i clean installed
[09:22] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: yeah. ubuntu is very popular right now. i think it even pisses off some of the fatter, sassier Debian guys
[09:22] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: what flavor of Mac do you have?
[09:22] <vonguard> Lovloss: sometimes, in Linux, you just have to resign yourself to coming back in six months and trying again
[09:22] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: well, the one in question is a Powerbook G3 Lombard.
[09:22] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: you might want to use Xubuntu on that. you'll get better performance.
[09:22] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: go for ubuntu
[09:23] <Cyber> vonguard: how do i check the disk?
[09:23] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, restart your pc
[09:23] <x-r00t-x> ...
[09:23] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: the best thing is Synaptic package manager. All the software that exists for the OS is available with 1 click
[09:23] <Lovloss> Well. how helpfull.
[09:23] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: vonguard.. yea. I think you're right.
[09:23] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: the Lombards and Wall Streets and other pre-G4 P-books tend to be happier with Xubuntu
[09:23] <vonguard> Lovloss: dude, beryl is not complete. software doesn't always work, esspecially when it's not done
[09:23] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: yea? oh ok. i was wondering if YDL did something special for ppc?
[09:24] <tyrone> Catshrimp: what do you study? insomnia?
[09:24] <vonguard> VLC was like that for a long time
[09:24] <vonguard> now it rules, but for the longest time, it pissed me off so bad
[09:24] <Rprp> well
[09:24] <Rprp> does someone know about APF?
[09:24] <Rprp> hostname: Host name lookup failure
[09:24] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: not really. but GNOME and KDE have higher hardware requirements than does XFCE
[09:24] <Cyber> x-root-x ure talking about check the cd to make sure none of the files are currupt right? thats one of the options that comes up at boot "check CD" aswell as "boot or install ubuntu"
[09:24] <vonguard> it's still buggy mind you
[09:24] <Rprp> if i try to stop it
[09:24] <Rprp> hostname: Host name lookup failure
[09:24] <vonguard> damn lazy, riotous french
[09:24] <Rprp> /# apf -f
[09:24] <Rprp> hostname: Host name lookup failure
[09:24] <Rprp> :(
[09:24] <x-r00t-x> Cyber,  yes .
[09:24] <Rprp> Can someone me help?
[09:24] <gemby_> With APF?
[09:25] <vonguard> Cyber: i think he meant to check the hard drive. there should be an option to do that
[09:25] <mneptok> Rprp: APF? or AFP?
[09:25] <Cyber> ok now x-r00t-x i have done that for both ubuntu cd's i have and both time it has said that the cd's are prefectly fine
[09:25] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: one problem i'm running into is trying to find a wifi usb adapter. Do the same rules apply?
[09:25] <Rprp> APF,
[09:25] <Rprp> Its a firewall
[09:25] <vonguard> and literally, check the cd face for scratches and boogers
[09:25] <mneptok> yup
[09:25] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, sorry i cant help more with it anymore
[09:25] <meshyf> Anyone here use Democracy player?
[09:25] <Rprp> But still it doesnt stop :/
[09:25] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: don't the Lombards have built-in ethernet?
[09:25] <Cyber> x-r00t-x:  thank you for ure help, i had already done that tho =D
[09:25] <gemby_> Advanced Policy Firewall?
[09:25] <Rprp> yes
[09:25] <tyrone> can i integrate the password of my remote ssh box in the ssh command?
[09:25] <Rprp> /# apf -f
[09:25] <Rprp> hostname: Host name lookup failure
[09:25] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: ah, so if it doesnt work on Ubuntu it wont work on YDL?
[09:25] <Rprp> How can i fix that?
[09:25] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: yea, they do.
[09:25] <gemby_> apf -f ?
[09:25] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, wc
[09:25] <Rprp> yes, i did
[09:25] <Cyber> ok my next option is im going to paste the entire install log & u guys can maybe check it :/
[09:25] <nicholaspaul> mneptok:  and PCMCIA
[09:25] <mneptok> Rprp: sudo invoke-rc.d apf stop
[09:26] <Cyber> but i can see the HD in g-parted
[09:26] <Cyber> its there and its partitions
[09:26] <Rprp> hostname: Host name lookup failure
[09:26] <Rprp> That does it say
[09:26] <Rprp> :x
[09:26] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: you just want another adapter, or ... ?
[09:26] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: no telling. YDL is very mac specific. but ubuntu is just more mature and capable
[09:26] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, yea everyone can see that . erm
[09:26] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  well, i dont mind giving YDL a spin. I have ubuntu on a couple of other machines already :)
[09:27] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: it doesnt have wifi, and i'm mainly wifi in the house .
[09:27] <belfegorash> i should install something to open this exe?
[09:27] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: yeah, give it a shot
[09:27] <Cyber> but x-r00t-x if he HD had an issue i shouldnt be able to see that ? aswell as that some of the OS files have been written to the HD, but the installer crashes while trying to install the stupid python stuff
[09:27] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: might be fun :-)
[09:27] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: YDL is a distro with little future. PPC is dead as a desktop architecture, it seems.
[09:27] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: the YDL folks just keep plugging away. gotta admire them
[09:27] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: lol
[09:27] <vonguard> mneptok: Xbox 360 is Risc
[09:27] <gemby_> Rprp: Is valid server in resolv.conf ?
[09:27] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: hmmm. Good point.
[09:27] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: do the Rev1 Airport cards fit in the Lombards/W-Streets ?
[09:27] <Rprp> Where can i find resolv.conf?
[09:27] <Manstein> Cyber is it by any means a sata drive with the compatibility jumper ON?
[09:27] <vonguard> mneptok: yes
[09:27] <gemby_> sudo pico /etc/resolv.conf
[09:27] <mneptok> vonguard: XBox 360 is not a desktop computer. :)
[09:28] <nicholaspaul> mneptok:  ooo cool!
[09:28] <vonguard> could be
[09:28] <Rprp> Oke,
[09:28] <Cyber> no its not a sata drive, altho when booting and shutting down my machine, it does say next to raid "failed"
[09:28] <x-r00t-x> hes Cyber stop trying install pythom
[09:28] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: vonguard so i should shop for an airport (non extreme) ?
[09:28] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, you got dvd or cd ?
[09:28] <Rprp> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:28] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: confirm they work in the Lombards. if so, then ja.
[09:28] <Rprp> Thats in it, but its not my server ip
[09:28] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: yeah
[09:28] <Cyber> but x-r00t-x it installs by itself from the cd, i cant select certain packages to install :/
[09:29] <Cyber> cd not dvd
[09:29] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: should be cheap
[09:29] <nicholaspaul> mneptok:  woohoo! i have an Asus that i wanted to get working in it...
[09:29] <vonguard> pull out that keyboard and make sure first
[09:29] <x-r00t-x> :S you must try ubuntuforum.org
[09:29] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  oh right.
[09:29] <x-r00t-x> http://ubuntuforums.org/ *
[09:29] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: you can pop up the keyboard easily, when it's off. there's a spot there for the card, i believe
[09:29] <Cyber> x-r00t-x: check this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35897/
[09:29] <Cyber> vonguard: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35897/
[09:29] <Cyber> check that and see
[09:29] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  oh sweet. i'll take a look.
[09:29] <gemby_> Rprp: Please, check what nameserver should be for you, ask your provider or so
[09:29] <Cyber> thats the complete sys install log
[09:30] <Rprp> Well, it doesnt stop, the nameserver is correct.
[09:30] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  i also need an ac adapter.. i dont suppose you know much about those do ya?
[09:30] <Rprp> Can i delete it? xD
[09:30] <gemby_> I usaly have caching only nameserver on machine
[09:30] <gemby_> What, apf?
[09:30] <Rprp> yes
[09:30] <gemby_> Yes, burt apf is only frontend for iptables
[09:31] <vonguard> Cyber: no idea
[09:31] <Rprp> hm.
[09:31] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, what version are you trying to install?
[09:31] <vonguard> Cyber: are you installing under sudo?
[09:31] <vonguard> Cyber: have you formated the drive?
[09:31] <x-r00t-x> vonguard, he install ubuntu not softwares
[09:31] <x-r00t-x> vonguard, auto format :-"
[09:32] <vonguard> so what the hell is wrong here
[09:32] <Cyber> not that i know of vonguard, i put the livecd in, boot to the desktop, there is an icon called "install" and when u click it, it attemtps to install ubuntu to your HD
[09:32] <Cyber> i used the auto partitioner to set every ting up
[09:32] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: looks like Airport first in the Pismos
[09:32] <Cyber> when it tried to install the python package it dies
[09:32] <vonguard> is windows on there too, cyber?
[09:32] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: looks like Airport first *appeared* in the Pismos
[09:32] <Cyber> no vonguard
[09:32] <vonguard> Cyber:  i think it actually chokes on the gnome screensaver
[09:32] <mneptok> nicholaspaul: so, no. no Airport love for you :/
[09:32] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: Thx for checking :)
[09:32] <Cyber> i dont know but it keeps dying at the same point :/
[09:32] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: i may have been wrong. first gen black g3 laptops = no wireless
[09:32] <nicholaspaul> mneptok: and...doh...! Another brick wall!
[09:33] <vonguard> but no matter, ubuntu supports pcmcia better than apple airport
[09:33] <vonguard> and so does kismac
[09:33] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  oh ok. I wish i could use my Asus WL167g.
[09:33] <vonguard> Cyber: dunno dood
[09:33] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: hmmm. G is not so good,
[09:33] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: ubuntu is sadly lacking in wireless support, esspecially for new stuff
[09:34] <mneptok> smoke break. time to suit up and face the cold.
[09:34] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: but it's not ubuntu's fault. it's wireless card makers
[09:34] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, in what % ?
[09:34] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: so YDL would be sucky too
[09:34] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: yea. I used to have hoary on my G4 and finally got the Airport extreme working.
[09:34] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: yuck
[09:34] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, burn one more cd .................................
[09:34] <mneptok> jebus, it's -13C
[09:34] <x-r00t-x> then try again
[09:34] <vonguard> Cyber: yeah, maybe yer image is borked
[09:35] <vonguard> Cyber: redownload the image
[09:35] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  hmmm. yea... well i do have a Linksys WET thingy, that will work.
[09:35] <fuoco> anyone uses r300 driver in edgy?
[09:35] <vonguard> wet?
[09:35] <vonguard> sounds dirty
[09:35] <vonguard> fuoco not me
[09:35] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  hahahha its a wifi adapter you plug in the wall.
[09:35] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: (wireless  you plug in... hmm..)
[09:35] <x-r00t-x> Cyber, lol @ 082. chroot: cannot run command `apt-get': No such file or directory
[09:36] <vonguard> usb?
[09:36] <x-r00t-x> Cyber,  everything is missing on your cd .. reburn it
[09:36] <vonguard> x-r00t-x: yeah, that made me scratch my head
[09:36] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  no its ethernet.
[09:36] <vonguard> x-r00t-x: redownload the image
[09:36] <x-r00t-x> lol @ vonguard
[09:36] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: oh!
[09:36] <x-r00t-x> what vonguard  ?
[09:37] <nicholaspaul> vonguard:  yea, could be worse. I could spend 4000 hrs making it wireless...!
[09:37] <vonguard> if cyber's discs are always bad, he needs to redownload the image
[09:37] <x-r00t-x> vonguard,  why are you telling me to download the img file again? my ubuntu works as well :P
[09:37] <vonguard> x-r00t-x: heh, not you, sorry. cyber needs to
[09:37] <x-r00t-x> :P vonguard
[09:37] <vonguard> nicholaspaul: usb wireless adapters can work
[09:38] <nicholaspaul> vonguard: but its finding one with the right chipset, isnt it?
[09:38] <x-r00t-x> usb wireless = bluetooth?
[09:38] <ponsfrilus> 'lo
[09:38] <dungodung> I'm guessing it's safe to go with the latest software updates
[09:38] <Cybe1> hmm

[09:46] <mneptok> belfegorash: ClamAV is a background daemon that you configure and initialize from the command line
[09:47] <vonguard> belfegorash: don't worry about a virus scanner. yer not too likely to contract one
[09:47] <opi> hi
[09:47] <poquedoraqu> what will it do to my com to remov linux-restricted-formats-generic ?  They said in #beryl that it may be keeping my computer from using the new nvidia driver. I get an 'x' error message that says it doesnt comply with x
[09:47] <opi> was there an new Xorg upload in Edgy?
[09:47] <sergevn> Is it true that swapping, bottlenecks your cpu?
[09:47] <vonguard> Koffa: what is this keyboard you have?
[09:47] <Koffa> vonguard: pc105, finnish layout
[09:47] <belfegorash> vonguard:ok i hope not:D thank you
[09:47] <Krux0> how can i re-download every package that was installed on my system, trying to take my cache dir to a remote, non-networked pc
[09:47] <vonguard> belfegorash: there are linux virus, but not very many
[09:48] <Krux0> This is the best i can come up with at the time: dpkg --get-selections | grep install|awk -F" " '{ print $1 }' | apt-get -y -d --reinstall
[09:48] <vonguard> belfegorash: nothing like windows
[09:48] <vonguard> belfegorash: and windows viruses... virii do not effect linux machines
[09:48] <belfegorash> this is a release
[09:48] <meshyf> Imma take a wild guess and say, there probably isn't any Flash support for Ubuntu, is there?
[09:48] <belfegorash> because when i have windows...pfff....
[09:49] <belfegorash> a lot of viruses
[09:49] <opi> ekhm, so, anyone knows if there was an Xorg upgrade, or not? My friend lost a desktop and I have to help her over the Internet as she's in Holland :)
[09:49] <vonguard> belfegorash: just remember: all those people sending you viruses via email are expecting windows. you are safe
[09:49] <SeyToN> lol
[09:49] <sergevn> Im from holland
[09:49] <sergevn> :)
[09:49] <vonguard> and porn sites don't expect linux ;)
[09:50] <belfegorash> :D ok i understand.i apreciate your help
[09:50] <vonguard> opi: there was a wine update, and a couple security update
[09:50] <vonguard> x11 was a while ago

[09:50] <vonguard> just doing my time in the ubuntu techsupport barrel
[09:50] <kittyhawk> I have an obscure question if anyone can help
[09:51] <vonguard> cmt^^: not likely
[09:51] <kittyhawk> the colors on my virtual terminal are all screwy, so that I can't read many things (man pages for example)
[09:51] <vonguard> cmt^^: logitech isn't so nice about its drivers
[09:51] <vonguard> kittyhawk: weird
[09:51] <cmt^^> vonguard - :<
[09:51] <vonguard> kittyhawk: someone here has to know where those prefernces are stored
[09:51] <[Nige] > hi all
[09:51] <vonguard>  is that in /root?
[09:51] <cmt^^> vonguard - do you know of anyone who uses skype for linux?
[09:52] <kittyhawk> the highlighted text is dark dark brown
[09:52] <vonguard> cmt^^: nope. but it apperently works in edgy
[09:52] <raphink> cmt^^: what is it exactly?
[09:52] <raphink> cmt^^: only a keyboard, a mouse and a microphone+earplugs ?
[09:52] <kittyhawk> the real problem is that nethack is unplayable :)
[09:52] <raphink> cmt^^: I don't see a reason why this would not work
[09:52] <cmt^^> raphink - yup
[09:53] <cmt^^> raphink - considering skype works, and skype is what it's built for...
[09:53] <[Ag0ny] > vonguard, you still around?
[09:53] <raphink> cmt^^: skype works fine in Ubuntu
[09:53] <raphink> cmt^^: but I would rather use ekiga or wengo
[09:53] <vonguard> yeah
[09:53] <raphink> or jabbin
[09:53] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : what's up?
[09:53] <raphink> skype is crap ;)
[09:53] <meshugga> i have a t30 and i want to run two different x servers on the lcd and on the external vga connector
[09:53] <kittyhawk> if no-one knows, does anyone at least have an idea of where I might look?  I'm out of things to try
[09:53] <meshugga> anyone of you who has done this?
[09:53] <[Nige] > I am running ubuntu on a core duo laptop, but I want to scale the cpu down even further, it sits idle at 996. I want to know  if scaling it will conserve battery power
[09:53] <raphink> kittyhawk: do you mean in the gnome terminal?
[09:54] <kittyhawk> no, the ctrl-alt-fn terminals
[09:54] <[Ag0ny] > well, eclipse still crashes, but now I have the added bonus of being refused any operations on it, as in I can't uninstall or reinstall
[09:54] <vonguard> meshugga: there's gotta be a way to get a tty on the second monitor, but i don't know it
[09:54] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : where did this eclipse come from?
[09:54] <raphink> kittyhawk: oh in ttys
[09:54] <[Ag0ny] > apt-get
[09:54] <vonguard> kittyhawk: check ubuntu forums
[09:54] <vonguard> !ubuntuforums
[09:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntuforums - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:54] <cmt^^> when it says "requires qt 3.2", what package should i download/install?
[09:54] <vonguard> !forums
[09:54] <ubotu> The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org. There is also a channel on IRC Freenode #ubuntuforums.
[09:55] <raphink> kittyhawk: iirc these are set in .bashrdc
[09:55] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : geez
[09:55] <raphink> kittyhawk: .bashrc
[09:55] <[Ag0ny] > yeah
[09:55] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : i have no idea what to say.
[09:55] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : might be help on java.net
[09:55] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : or ubuntu forums
[09:55] <vonguard> manually remove eclipse?
[09:55] <vonguard> like, file by file?
[09:55] <kittyhawk> raphink: thanks, I'll try that.
[09:55] <[Ag0ny] > rm the elcipse dirs?

[09:56] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : i guess
[09:56] <raphink> how did you install eclipse [Ag0ny] ?
[09:56] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : i know it stashes things elsewhere
[09:56] <vonguard> raphink: apt-get
[09:56] <raphink> well then apt-get remove
[09:56] <[Ag0ny] > can't
[09:56] <raphink> removing programs manually when they have been installed by apt-get is the worst idea
[09:56] <vonguard> [Ag0ny] : tried that, i think, right?
[09:56] <[Ag0ny] > get the following error
[09:56] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : how so?
[09:56] <cmt^^> There are a bunch of different qt-packages to download, which one do I install when the application requires "QT 3.2"?
[09:57] <vonguard> cmt^^: uhm.... whatever's not dev related
[09:57] <raphink> cmt^^: isn't there dependencies on the skype package?
[09:57] <[Ag0ny] > For discussion head to hack3r irc #roothack.
[09:57] <[Ag0ny] > Things are unstable now but will return to form as soon as possible.
[09:57] <belfegorash> does anybody know a program to download like...limewire,Ares?
[09:57] <[Ag0ny] > oops

[09:58] <belfegorash> ok i will:D

[09:58] <vonguard> !multiverse
[09:58] <raphink> vonguard: limewire is certainly not in universe
[09:58] <raphink> because it' not open-source
[09:58] <vonguard> multiverse?
[09:58] <vonguard> it's in one of them
[09:58] <mneptok> Frostwire is.
[09:58] <mneptok> Frostwire > Limewire
[09:58] <raphink> no it's not
[09:59] <raphink> in multiverse that is
[09:59] <vonguard> hmmmm
[09:59] <raphink> vonguard: limewire is not distributable
[09:59] <vonguard> i coulda sworn it was
[09:59] <belfegorash> i cant find limewire
[09:59] <raphink> well please check before giving advice :)
[09:59] <vonguard> sorry, no one else was here to help
[09:59] <kittyhawk> everytime I install a development related package apt complains that it's not signed.  I assume I'm missing some public key.
[09:59] <vonguard> but since yer here now, i am done
[09:59] <kittyhawk> anyone know how to fix that?
[10:00] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : seems your dpkg database is screwed
[10:00] <belfegorash> raphink:you got an advice for me?about dld?
[10:00] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : can you try to apt-get udpate ?
[10:00] <[Ag0ny] > without reinstalling the whole base system can I fix that raph
[10:00] <raphink> belfegorash: amule is a good P2P client
[10:00] <mneptok> hmmm, Frostwire seems to have lost its maintainer.
[10:00] <[Ag0ny] > I have
[10:00] <mneptok> grim
[10:00] <belfegorash> ok thank you
[10:01] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : what does it do? Can you post the result in a pastebin?
[10:01] <mneptok> belfegorash: sudo aptitude install gtk-gnutella
[10:01] <[Ag0ny] > update? sure
[10:01] <mneptok> belfegorash: or install Sun's JRE and then use Frostwire
[10:01] <belfegorash> and all this i can find in Synaptic yes?
[10:01] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : otherwise, try "sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update"
[10:01] <mneptok> belfegorash: Frostwire is no longer in the repos
[10:01] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : we'll see if that resets the database properly
[10:02] <mneptok> belfegorash: sun's jre and gtk-gnutella are there, though
[10:02] <belfegorash> ok
[10:02] <belfegorash> thanks
[10:02] <poquedoraqu> sudo dpkg-configure xserver-xorg     gives me the response: command not found
[10:02] <poquedoraqu> does anyone know what i messed up this time
[10:02] <mneptok> poquedoraqu: dpkg-reconfigure
[10:02] <poquedoraqu> ...oh.
[10:02] <poquedoraqu> brb
[10:02] <raphink> poquedoraqu: dpkg-configure doesn't exist ;)
[10:03] <raphink> there's dpkg --configure though
[10:03] <[Ag0ny] > pastebinning it now, still no dice
[10:04] <[Ag0ny] > I get the same error when I try to do dpkg --configure
[10:04] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : can you give me the pastebin link?
[10:04] <qsuc> so here's a general linux question: what's with all the packages named x*?
[10:04] <[Ag0ny] > pastebin's taking forever
[10:04] <dawkirst> Hi. This is off-topic, but what's the difference between Core2 Duo and Core Duo?
[10:04] <qsuc> Core 2 is quadcore
[10:04] <raphink> qsuc: here's a general answer : their name begin with x, so what?
[10:04] <[Ag0ny] > here's the short of it raphink :
[10:04] <qsuc> hahaha, why the pattern
[10:05] <[Ag0ny] > kaz@shokii:~$ sudo dpkg --configure
[10:05] <[Ag0ny] > dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 204 package `librecode0':
[10:05] <[Ag0ny] >  `Depends' field, syntax error after reference to package `libc6'
[10:05] <[Ag0ny] > kaz@shokii:~$
[10:05] <qsuc> why not just make it one letter shorter
[10:05] <bigbro> qsuc: They generally have to do with X11, the graphical interface.
[10:05] <qsuc> ahhhh
[10:05] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : who told you to do a "dpkg --configure" ?
[10:05] <[Ag0ny] > I get the same error when I try apt-get remove eclipse
[10:05] <bigbro> qsuc: So man is a text based man page viewer, xman is the equivalent viewer with a GUI.
[10:05] <[Ag0ny] > <raphink> there's dpkg --configure though
[10:05] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : yes, I was answering someone else who asked about dpkg-recongiure
[10:05] <[Ag0ny] > I tried that after doing
[10:05] <qsuc> sweet
[10:05] <qsuc> ah I get it
[10:06] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : I asked you to do "sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update"
[10:06] <[Ag0ny] > the clean and update
[10:06] <[Ag0ny] > it's taking forever to pastebin
[10:06] <[Ag0ny] > I did that
[10:06] <raphink> did you get the same error with the clean && update?
[10:06] <[Ag0ny] > then tried to remove eclipse
[10:06] <[Ag0ny] > no errors shown with clean && update
[10:07] <bigbro> qsuc: Of course, that's not a strict rule. Something like xine is just a package that has a name starting with the letter 'x' AFAICS :)
[10:07] <raphink> [Ag0ny] : PM

[10:41] <hhyyjj163_> ubotu iptables
[10:41] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[10:42] <ernz> Does anyone know if "Swiftfox" is any good?
[10:42] <hhyyjj163_> realy is a bot,hehe
[10:42] <HuibertGill> dkhan: have you tried reloading the package list with "apt-get update" or the reload button in synaptic?
[10:42] <tonyyarusso> !bot | hhyyjj163_
[10:42] <ubotu> hhyyjj163_: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[10:43] <dkhan> HuibertGill: yes several times
[10:43] <dkhan> HuibertGill: but I changed my sources - do I have to cleanup something or does apt-get update do this for me
[10:43] <edgy> Hi, how can I change the screen color depth in (k)ubuntu?
[10:44] <hhyyjj163_> hehe its wonderful,thank you tony
[10:44] <HuibertGill> dkhan: apt should take care of that.
[10:44] <rastilin> edgy, Hold on, why change the colour depth.
[10:44] <tyrone> is there a way to burn Alcoholsoft (mds, mdf) images in Ubuntu?
[10:44] <dkhan> HuibertGill ok - so then the dependency is broken?
[10:44] <rastilin> tyrone, you can use ccd2iso to convert them to iso files.
[10:45] <edgy> rastilin: when I connected my laptop to a projector the picture is flickering. so I thought may be the color depth has something to do with it
[10:45] <tonyyarusso> edgy: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' lets you go through the setup of various display options, and that's one of them.  That sounds like a refresh rate issue rather than color depth to me though.  Could be wrong.
[10:45] <edgy> rastilin: in windows it works great btw so it's something related to ubuntu
[10:46] <rastilin> edgy, My money's on the refresh rate being the problem.
[10:46] <tyrone> rastilin: the image is secured with securom. Does this make any difference?
[10:46] <HuibertGill> dkhan: looks like it....
[10:47] <edgy> rastilin: the refresh rate? ok when I am there again I would try to change it but why there is no way to change the colors while it's there in windows? is it useless?
[10:47] <tonyyarusso> If you have your ftp server configured to chroot a user to their home directory, and have a symlink in their ~ to /var/www/user, would they be properly limited to ~ plus /var/www/user, and not be able to go up to /var/www, or would the symlink let them out of the chroot?
[10:48] <rastilin> tyrone, I don't think that even a mdf file can be used to bypass securom's copy protection.
[10:48] <dkhan> HuibertGill: so I better wait a few days for it to resolve?
[10:48] <jahid> hi, i am trying to install ubuntu from cd. the cd is loaidng and asking me to choose an option. i am choosing "run or install ubuntu" then it keeps me waiting showing a progress bar. after that it just show black skin with a blinking cursor for long time withou any progress
[10:48] <jahid> can anyone help me about that?
[10:48] <rastilin> edgy, Because there's really no point in changing the colour depth, nothing needs a different depth.
[10:48] <tonyyarusso> jahid: How much RAM?
[10:49] <rastilin> edgy, I mean nothing at all. You CAN change it from the configuration file and in some distributions. But It wasn't implemented in Ubuntu.
[10:49] <tyrone> rastilin: speaking of color depths, how can i change the brightness of my screen?
[10:49] <jahid> tonyyarusso, more then 1GB
[10:49] <tonyyarusso> jahid: So much for that theory
[10:49] <tonyyarusso> jahid: Did you verify the ISO?
[10:49] <rastilin> tyrone, You mean the gamma? Well your video card controls like "nvidia-settings" will handle that.
[10:49] <cadu> hello, i'm with a strange problem  with the pppoe here, i set up a pppoe connection using pppoeconf (the usual way)....when it connects, resolv.conf gets the dns addresses, but after 10 minutes the connection DIES, when i go check it out, the link is still active but something removed the dns entries from the resolv.conf, what can it be or someone knows what program must be doing this?
[10:50] <jahid> no, should i?
[10:50] <vorpal> jahid: yeah
[10:50] <tonyyarusso> jahid: yeah
[10:50] <tonyyarusso> !verify | jahid
[10:50] <ubotu> jahid: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[10:50] <sergevn> jahid, do you have enough RAM, i had the same problem.
[10:50] <c0> o_Fitnes_Sby_Need_SomeOne
[10:50] <tonyyarusso> jahid: And it's recommended to burn at a slow speed (I use 4x)
[10:50] <sergevn> plug in some ram or install the xubuntu cd
[10:50] <edgy> rastilin: ok thanks for your help
[10:50] <HuibertGill> dkhan: it's the only advise I can give you atm, sorry
[10:50] <jahid> sergevn, i think i have more then one giga ram
[10:50] <sergevn> jahid, ok hmm
[10:51] <jahid> tonyyarusso, 4x only?
[10:51] <tonyyarusso> jahid: I've gotten away with 16x as well, but the slower you go the safer, so find what you can put up with ;)
[10:51] <ernz> Before on Dapper, embedded multimedia files would play within a browser fine, after using automatix/easy ubuntu. Now I just have a grayed out box with nothing loading, what is this all about and how can I make it work>?
[10:52] <jahid> is there any way to install ubuntu using network? i mean from my laptop to my desktop? they are connected and my laptop is having faster cd rom drive
[10:52] <tyrone> i am using ati with the fglrx driver. is there a way to control the colour settings of my display like gamma and contrast?
[10:52] <bigbro> tonyyarusso: Burning at a slow speed is generally irrelevant nowadays, unless you have an old burner. Drives tend to be tested and optimised for running at their default (usually fastest or close to) speed.
[10:52] <tonyyarusso> ernz: Using scripts is not the best way, and certainly not automatix.
[10:53] <tonyyarusso> !netinstall | jahid
[10:53] <ubotu> jahid: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[10:53] <cadu> bigbro: sure thing, the -media- should be extremely bad for burning speed to make a difference in these new burners
[10:53] <bigbro> tonyyarusso: I've noticed significantly less jitter when burning audio material at 24 speed rather than at 2 speed (on a modern 24x burner)
[10:53] <ernz> tonyyarusso> So if automatix isn't the solution to my problem, what is?
[10:54] <tonyyarusso> bigbro: Well, regardless, just about anyone who's burned a lot of install disks will recommend it.  /me shrugs
[10:54] <bigbro> jahid: Yes - you need the network install disk. I know about this because I have a laptop with a broken CD-ROM drive. You'll have to google for the mini iso image though - I can't remember where it is, sorry.
[10:54] <tonyyarusso> ernz: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats is the proper method
[10:54] <reverseblade> I have 3 files, I want to burn them to DVD from command line, how can I do it ?
[10:54] <jahid> bigbro, tell me little more or an URL
[10:54] <jahid> where can i get network install disk?
[10:54] <bigbro> reverseblade: Are they ISO files? If not, make one ISO file and burn that. growisofs is your friend.
[10:55] <bigbro> jahid: Gimmee a sec and I'll see if I can re-find it.
[10:55] <tonyyarusso> ernz: You have a few choices for plugins (vlc, totem, mplayer), and there's also a FF extension that lets you use an external player
[10:55] <jahid> bigbro, ok
[10:55] <reverseblade> bigbro, they are tar files, do I have to make an ISO file ? if so how ?
[10:55] <reverseblade> bigbro, note that the total size of 3 files is about 4.5 GB
[10:55] <ernz> tonyyarusso> The one I had before allowed me the option also to right click and say "Save as..." do you know which one that was?
[10:55] <reverseblade> bigbro, each 1.5 GB
[10:56] <sergevn> jahid, in the time you are making that construction, you could work in that time and buy an new cddrive for you pc ;)
[10:57] <jahid> sergevn, its my office pc, i dont want to spend of that
[10:57] <jimcooncat> how can I reset an /etc file back to the original that came with the package?
[10:57] <concept10> how do I list all partitions whether mounted our not?
[10:57] <bigbro> jahid: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD?highlight=%28mini.iso%29%7C%28download%29
[10:57] <sergevn> jahid, you got a point there :)
[10:57] <tonyyarusso> ernz: Can't say I do, sorry.  With any of them, right-click > page info > media lets you save things, albeit more tedious.
[10:57] <reverseblade> I have 3 files, I want to burn them to DVD from command line, how can I do it ?
[10:57] <mneptok> jimcooncat: sudo dpkg-reconfigure $packagename (if you're lucky)
[10:57] <tonyyarusso> ernz: I'd guess either mplayer or vlc though
[10:58] <jimcooncat> thenks mneptok
[10:58] <bigbro> reverseblade: That might not fit on a DVD - generally you get about 4.2GB of data on a DVD+-R IME.
[10:58] <ernz> tonyyarusso> OK, will give that a go. Thanks for your help.
[10:58] <jahid> sergevn, yes i got a point:)
[10:58] <tonyyarusso> bigbro: I thought it was 4.7 myself
[10:58] <reverseblade> bigbro, mines have 4.7 gb, but I can put the two by two, that's not a problem. tell me about the solution please
[10:59] <tonyyarusso> reverseblade: I think the 'cdrecord' tool is what you're looking for, which has various frontends to try to make it more friendly.
[10:59] <vorpal> reverseblade: do a search with aptitude/synaptic
[11:00] <bigbro> reverseblade: Put them in a directory (say called  dvd-files/ ) and run something like  growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -R -J dvd-files/
[11:00] <vorpal> it should trun up a useful utility
[11:00] <reverseblade> tonyyarusso, does it work from the command line ? does it burn files to a DVD ?
[11:00] <reverseblade> bigbro, oh I C
[11:00] <tonyyarusso> reverseblade: cdrecord is cli, yes.  I believe it can do DVD, but you'd want to check the man page on that.
[11:00] <bigbro> cdrecord may or may not work - it's for CDs though some versions have an add-on to understand DVD writing. Using growisofs is the supported and generic solution for Linux.
[11:01] <reverseblade> bigbro, and why I can't just explicitly state the file names rather than to put them into a directory
[11:01] <bigbro> And yes - DVDs are marked as 4.7GB of data - but it depends on the formatting, overhead, blocks and files - I generally get about 4.2GB of actual data on a DVD, but YMMV.
[11:01] <maxsoftX_> goooooooooooooooooooodMorning. !! I've a problem with a wlan. somebdy like join my pc to see the problem? I need only configure it :)
[11:01] <bigbro> reverseblade: Yes - if that's easier.
[11:02] <MarkoKaa> hello
[11:02] <reverseblade> bigbro, My 3 files make up 4.5 GB, shall I try to write them to DVD ?
[11:02] <vorpal> maxsoftX_: what's the problem with your wlan?
[11:02] <bigbro> reverseblade: You may want to separate the ISOFS creation stage (mkisofs) and burning stage (cdrecord / dvdrecord / growisofs) stages if so, though.
[11:02] <sergevn> maxsoftX_, be more specific
[11:02] <usamahashimi> hi everyone
[11:02] <ernz> tonyyarusso> I have mozilla-mplayer now installed but firefox still appears with a gray blank where the plugin should be. Do I have to tell firefox what plugin to use?
[11:03] <reverseblade> bigbro,  I don't know what does that mean
[11:03] <maxsoftX_> vorpal it dont see my acccess point. another 2 pc work well.
[11:03] <usamahashimi> does anyone use nxclient?
[11:03] <sergevn> ernz, in your browser type: about:plugins
[11:03] <dkhan> damn php5_5 is also broken
[11:03] <sergevn> ernz, see if it's enabled.
[11:03] <dkhan> could this really be
[11:03] <philc> can I just start an arbitrary command as a daemon somehow? I have it going via ssh, but I'd like it to keep running if I get disconnected
[11:03] <philc> e.g. tail -f /var/log > myfile
[11:04] <tonyyarusso> ernz: Installing that should do it, but a) has to be default FF, not newer version, b) have to have support for the media type (see !restricted), c) have to restart Firefox
[11:04] <bigbro> reverseblade: Basically, you cannot just 'copy' files to a CD / DVD - it's a completely different filesystem. So what Linux (and every OS that burns CDs) does is it makes an image of the filesystem (often called a .iso file or .cdr file)
[11:04] <bigbro> reverseblade: It then writes this .iso image file to a DVD/CD byte for byte.
[11:04] <willskills> hey guys
[11:05] <maxsoftX_> sergevn: I need configure th eaccess point ESSID the iwconfig dont work well.  ubuntu see the wlan with eth1. (and not wlan0) the iwconfig see the eth1.
[11:05] <edgy> Sirs, how can I install a downloaded .deb so it install its dependencies automatically?
[11:05] <bigbro> philc: I suggest you use screen.
[11:05] <maxsoftX_> But dont work well.
[11:05] <tonyyarusso> philc: You could make a script run by a cronjob perhaps.
[11:05] <willskills> any advice on a nice Media/Movie player, with a Playlist manager? Repeat, etc
[11:05] <ernz> tonyyarusso> It is enabled, I have FF2.0 that came with Edgy
[11:05] <reverseblade> I see
[11:05] <willskills> what are people's favourites?
[11:05] <reverseblade> bigbro,  I got it
[11:05] <rastilin> willskills, kmplayer
[11:05] <philc> bigbro: thanks!
[11:05] <usamahashimi> can anyone guide me about nxclient?
[11:05] <tonyyarusso> ernz: hmm
[11:05] <maxsoftX_> vorpal: sergevn now I go in internet with an ethernet (eth0) .
[11:05] <willskills> rastilin, I dont have KDE
[11:05] <HuibertGill> !nxclient
[11:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nxclient - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:05] <HuibertGill> !freenx
[11:06] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[11:06] <rastilin> willskills, so? Just install kmplayer.
[11:06] <willskills> ok
[11:06] <bigbro> reverseblade: So mkisofs can make the image 0 and if it overruns a DVD size, you don't waste a blank. When you try and burn it, the burning software (dvdrecord / growisofs) should tell you that it won't fit then, but it can't tell you that unless the image is completely created.
[11:06] <tonyyarusso> willskills: Mplayer has a gnome frontend too
[11:06] <rastilin> willskills, set it to use mplayer as the client
[11:06] <maxsoftX_> vorpal: sergevn do you like see it? I've load the pris2 module. it's a usb wlan.
[11:06] <ernz> tonyyarusso> Should I uninstall and reinstall mplayer-plugin?
[11:06] <HuibertGill> usamahashimi: did you read what ubotu just wrote?
[11:06] <tonyyarusso> ernz: Maybe.  I'm not really sure what the problem is any more.
[11:06] <willskills> ok, well guys, how do you chnage the default player on file types?
[11:07] <bigbro> reverseblade: growisofs can generate the image on the fly - writing it to DVD as it goes - so save having to have 5GB disk free each time you want to burn a DVD. It's quite clever - but as you can see has its limitations :)
[11:07] <reverseblade> and what is the official DVD size to check, 4.7 GB or 4.2 GB
[11:07] <sergevn> maxsoftX_, vorpal, hmmm it could be anything, driver, hardware, accespoint etc etc.
[11:07] <bigbro> reverseblade: Depends on your media and your burner and your TOC. THere is no correct answer.
[11:07] <tonyyarusso> willskills: In Nautilus, right click any file of that type, select Properties, then the Open With tab.
[11:07] <tonyyarusso> (We need a better way for that, imo)
[11:07] <reverseblade> bigbro, media claims it is 4.7
[11:07] <willskills> I know that, but that doesnt change the default
[11:07] <willskills> i.e. so when you double click files
[11:07] <willskills> it just opens with that player
[11:08] <maxsoftX_> sergevn: vorpal, you like enter in my pc? I've installed hamachi also.
[11:08] <tonyyarusso> willskills: Yes it will; you have to go through properties, not the higher level Open with
[11:08] <sergevn> maxsoftX_, you have rdp enabled?
[11:08] <vorpal> maxsoftX_: had it worked previously or has it never worked beofre?
[11:08] <sergevn> maxsoftX_, i haven't worked before with hamachi, only with RPD
[11:08] <sergevn> RDP
[11:08] <willskills> ah excellent, thanks
[11:09] <willskills> sorry, just got up, obviously my head is up to reading properly yet ;)
[11:09] <willskills> not*
[11:09] <maxsoftX_> vorpal: sergevn it never worked. rdp ? yes I think. can yougive me a URL to check the rdp configuration?
[11:09] <bigbro> reverseblade: Yes - RAW - but that does not mean you'll get 4.7GB of useful data on it.
[11:09] <sergevn> maxsoftX_, it's the same protocol as Windows Remote Desktop Connection
[11:10] <sergevn> maxsoftX_, query me :)
[11:10] <maxsoftX_> sergevn: I dont have a public ip address for this I use hamachi. install hamachi it's very easy. please try. I've installled it in 5 minutes and I dont know linux.
[11:10] <maxsoftX_> sergevn: please query me cause I'm not registered so I cant :) thank you.
[11:11] <dawkirs1> Hi. Dumb question: how can I navigate to the proper 'Ruby folder' so I can run irb --simple-prompt from my terminal?
[11:12] <maxsoftX_> sergevn:  can you see me in private?
[11:12] <we2by> hi
[11:12] <vorpal> dawkirs1: you can run irb from any directory
[11:12] <we2by> does any one knows a game for linux similar to Counter Strike ?
[11:12] <dawkirs1> vorpal: Just by typing irb --simple-prompt?
[11:12] <rastilin> we2by, what's wrong with counter strike?
[11:13] <sergevn> maxsoftX_, i just query'd you.
[11:13] <vorpal> dawkirs1: yeah
[11:13] <maxsoftX_> sergevn:  can create a new channel please? I'm not registered and I can message in private
[11:14] <we2by> Rastilin, counter strike does not work on linux
[11:14] <LookTJ> Hey, where do i download vmware? i can't find it on vmware's site
[11:14] <sergevn> maxsoftX_, Register yourself then :)
[11:14] <willskills> we2by, I dont think thats true
[11:15] <willskills> I haven't got round to trying it yet
[11:15] <dawkirs1> vorpal: it doesn't work. bash: irb: command not found.
[11:15] <willskills> I am patxching WoW atm
[11:15] <willskills> but I have read a lot of pages saying Steam & CS:S work
[11:15] <willskills> under WINE
[11:15] <tonyyarusso> maxsoftX_, sergevn: We also have #ubuntu-classroom for when people want to look into something more in-depth one-on-one.
[11:15] <we2by> willskills, actually I got CS Source, does it work on Linux?
[11:15] <willskills> from what I have read, yeah, you can get it to work with WINE
[11:16] <vorpal> then you don't have irb yet
[11:16] <willskills> anyone interested to see my desktop? :)
[11:16] <vorpal> type: sudo apt-get install irb
[11:16] <tonyyarusso> willskills: Desktop screenies are welcome in #ubuntu-offtopic ;)
[11:17] <dawkirs1> vorpal: thanks, will do now.
[11:17] <ChrisBradley> how do you launch a daemon in ubuntu?
[11:17] <Rprp> Hmm, how can i restart my apache ?
[11:17] <ChrisBradley> You don't use service daemon start
[11:17] <dawkirs1> vorpal: E: Couldn't find package irb...
[11:17] <Doow> Rprp: /etc/init.d/apache restart
[11:17] <ChrisBradley> Rprp - which apache version
[11:18] <ChrisBradley> ah
[11:18] <ChrisBradley> ok
[11:18] <Rprp> Thnx Doow
[11:18] <Rprp> well
[11:18] <Doow> Rprp: np, could be apache2 instead of apache, depending on your version =)
[11:18] <vorpal> dawkirs1: have you edited your sources.list file?
[11:19] <xorn> is there anybody you got the ATI RADEON X800XL problem solved?
[11:19] <dawkirs1> vorpal: No. Should I have?
[11:19] <xorn> is there anybody who got the ATI RADEON X800XL problem solved?
[11:19] <ChrisBradley> I'm trying to launch imapd as a daemon
[11:20] <Rprp> What is the nwest GD version?
[11:20] <vorpal> maybe. If irb isn't in main or restricted then yes
[11:21] <xorn> is there anybody who got the ATI RADEON X800XL problem solved? i am hanging on this for days now
[11:21] <vorpal> dawkirs1: did you run automatix or easy ubuntu?
[11:21] <chable> hey
[11:22] <dawkirs1> vorpal: I don't want to sound annoying, but I don't know. I just installed it from a CD.
[11:23] <ChrisBradley> how do I restart inetd?
[11:23] <vorpal> dawkirs1: sorry i was just making sure, Open up a terminal and write: sudo nano /etc/apt/source.list
[11:24] <dawkirs1> vorpal: Okay.
[11:24] <vorpal> then get rid of the # before the lines that say universe
[11:25] <dawkirs1> vorpal: It just shows: GNU nano 1.3.10          File: /etc/apt/source.list.
[11:25] <djdarkman> hy ,how can I share my internet connection ,what do I have to set?\
[11:25] <raphink> anyone knows how to use APT::Get::Fix-Missing ?
[11:25] <raphink> what value to give to it
[11:26] <vorpal> dawkirs1: sorry typo i meant sources.list
[11:26] <ernz> tonyyarusso> I still haven't beaten this. Lots of people with the same problem since Edgy's release by the looks of it
[11:26] <vorpal> say ctrl-X to exit then try again
[11:27] <noiesmo> raphink, sudo apt-get install --fix-missing
[11:27] <dawkirs1> vorpal: Does exactly the same :/
[11:27] <tonyyarusso> ernz: Tried the mailing list or forums yet?
[11:27] <noiesmo> raphink, if i have upgrade or install problem with apt-get and it rocmends it
[11:27] <maxsoftX_> vorpal: you like join my pc? sergevn cant cause a problem with router.
[11:27] <raphink> noiesmo: ?
[11:28] <ernz> tonyyarusso> Have indeed. Some point to a firefox plugin called MediaPlayerConnectivity - But that opens an external player and plays NOTHING
[11:28] <carlos> hey room.. anyone knows about squid?
[11:28] <raphink> noiesmo: yes I know about --fix-missing
[11:28] <vorpal> dawkirs1: as in: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:28] <carlos> i have a problem
[11:28] <vorpal> that gives you nothing?
[11:28] <raphink> noiesmo: but I need to know how to use APT::Get::Fix-Missing
[11:28] <noiesmo> raphink, k

[11:28] <lukemh> why didnt i do this ages ago
[11:28] <ernz> tonyyarusso> See why people turn to scripted installers? :)
[11:28] <dawkirs1> vorpal: Sorry, there it goes. So I should get rid of the # before universe?
[11:28] <lukemh> ive nearly got everything set up just as i want
[11:29] <raphink> noiesmo: because I have a program that seeds the --option to apt-get, which requires options of the form of APT::Get::Fix-Missing
[11:29] <vorpal> dawkirs1: any  lines that say universe in them
[11:29] <tonyyarusso> ernz: I can see the appeal, but I've also seen what happens when they don't work right.

[11:30] <kraut> moin
[11:31] <dawkirs1> vorpal: Thank you for your patience.
[11:31] <raphink> but I've read the manual and it's not very clear
[11:31] <vorpal> dawkirs1: :)

[11:34] <noiesmo> lukemh, http://www.urbanpuddle.com/articles/2006/06/10/install-ruby-rails-on-ubuntu-dapper-drake
[11:34] <lukemh> thanks noiesmo
[11:34] <tonyyarusso> tyrone: I'm not aware of anything.  However, on a different note, he may be interested to know that there exist keyboard layouts specifically for one-handed use (modified Dvorak).
[11:36] <KenSentMe> Is there a command to see my system specs, like cpu, gpu and ram?
[11:37] <vook> eh, so if I remove abiword (which according to synaptic is a dependancy of the package 'gnome') will gnome cease to function or will I simply be removing a dummy package?
[11:38] <ernz> tonyyarusso> The Solution FINALLY!!!! >> http://arun-prabha.com/wdpress/?p=407
[11:38] <tonyyarusso> ernz: Yay!
[11:38] <vorpal> vook: gnome will work without abiword
[11:38] <noiesmo> !sysinfo | KenSentMe
[11:38] <ubotu> sysinfo: Simple GTK program that shows some UNIX/Linux system information. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.1-0ubuntu5 (edgy), package size 98 kB, installed size 512 kB
[11:39] <vook> vorpal - I thought so, it's weird though that removing abiword also removes the dummy package gnome ?? oh well.
[11:39] <KenSentMe> noiesmo: thanks
[11:39] <BlackHawk> hi
[11:39] <CaRLiNhO> anyone knows something about the error of SQUID proxy server: No Running Copy????
[11:39] <dawkirst> vorpal: I'll check just now.
[11:40] <CaRLiNhO> anyone knows something about the error of SQUID proxy server: No Running Copy????
[11:40] <meshyf> Anyone know how to set up Last.fm radio player right? I can't get it to show artist, album or track info
[11:40] <vorpal> vook: the package exists to get all the basic stuff and they consider abiword to be basic
[11:40] <flo|va-nu-pied> hi
[11:40] <dawkirst> vorpal: It worked. Thanks.
[11:40] <flo|va-nu-pied> plz
[11:40] <eilker> !gecko
[11:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gecko - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:41] <meshyf> !lastfm
[11:41] <ubotu> lastfm: an audio player for last.fm personalized radio. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.90-3 (edgy), package size 476 kB, installed size 1080 kB
[11:41] <vook> vorpal ah, I see.  so I'll still have gnome, just not the entire gnome-environment as seen by the gnome people.  coo, thanks.
[11:41] <flo|va-nu-pied> what's the correct syntaxe to hold a package version with apt ?
[11:41] <dawkirst> vorpal: And I learned something new. But why doesn't Ubuntu "officially" support irb?
[11:42] <vorpal> dawkirst: cause you don't need irb to have a normal full running system. You can imagine a desktop with out irb but not with out a wordprocessor or an mp3player
[11:42] <meshyf> Anyone know how to set up Last.fm radio player right? I can't get it to show artist, album or track info
[11:43] <flo|va-nu-pied> i found aptitude hold my_package but seem to doesn't work with apt
[11:43] <SeyToN> ubuntu hasnt have the packages of glib and libpng :S
