[00:00] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: i'll try the link you have posted, i must admit that after a few hours of googling, i really haven't seen that one
[00:00] <spoonman> recon69, if firefox didn't shut down properly, then probably
[00:00] <clintchance> cpk1, ok thanks il try it
[00:00] <spoonman> recon69, you can just kill those processes if you're not running FF
[00:00] <cpk1> clintchance: usually you want to use madwifi for atheros chipsets, with this one there was a problem and you couldnt until a patch came out. hence why you had to try ndiswrapper, but it looks like it doesnt always work with ndiswrapper
[00:00] <gabbler> soul_sample: google is a skill in itself, i seem to be quite lucky ;)
[00:00] <fellag_> hello world :p
[00:00] <dimisdas> freshy: I havent worked with that stuff too much. I am a mysql and a php specialist basicaly:P
[00:01] <recon69> spoonman: cant say ff crashed on me, but been having problems with posting data back to web servers
[00:01] <Freshy> dimisdas thanks for the effort!
[00:01] <dimisdas> freshy: You can try the traditional way
[00:01] <dimisdas> freshy: if you are not bored
[00:01] <dimisdas> freshy :P
[00:01] <recon69> I killed them and they gone, it's interesting that they did not show up in system manager
[00:02] <Freshy> traditional being check each one
[00:02] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: do you maybe know why my usb2.0 devices get limited to 12mbps?
[00:02] <dimisdas> recon69: I just saw a fox running...
[00:02] <dimisdas> freshy: results?
[00:02] <recon69> also got 60 or so console kit daemons running
[00:02] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: because i think that could also solve my problem, but i really can't say which solution would be easier
[00:03] <gabbler> soul_sample: not really im afraid im no usb expert, but is that for all usb devices or just that one?
[00:03] <Freshy> i think that i have selected the wrong com during install
[00:03] <Slart> recon69: I've got one.. what are you using to look at the processes?
[00:03] <Freshy> i think i still have xp on this lap, i should check com there
[00:03] <dimisdas> freshy: so try removing and installing again...
[00:03] <recon69> Htop
[00:03] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: my nokia 6234 and my iriver t-60 are unusable. i see the files, folders and everything, but if i try to open anything it gets stuck and disconnects the device
[00:03] <dimisdas> freshy: hehe
[00:03] <spoonman> recon69, are you running ubuntu-desktop? Because I don't think I have 60 processes total :p
[00:03] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: my regular usb flash stick works nicely
[00:03] <ChrissyW> hey all, can anyone help me figure out where I find drivers for my video card? I'm using a Dell Inspiron E1405 Laptop. It has just the default integrated video card in it. I ran a google search but couldn't seem to find anything that helped me
[00:03] <Slart> recon69: mm.. for some reason htop lists lots of console-kit-deamon for me too..
[00:04] <dimisdas> freshy: check with a Virtual Machine if you dont
[00:04] <khari> Guest81952 have you tried changing nvidia settings using the nvidia-settings app?
[00:04] <Freshy> good old vm, i have to play with that again
[00:04] <recon69> spoonman: ubuntu 8.04 desktop , for the moment, cant say I a happy user since 8.04
[00:04] <Slart> recon69: but ps -A | grep -i console-kit-daemon only shows one.. I don't know if htop does something weird
[00:04] <dimisdas> freshy: VirtualBox...
[00:05] <Guest81952> Just downgraded from nvidia-glx-new to nvidia-glx. restarting x now..
[00:05] <euxidia> how can i know if my graphic card is correctly installed??????plz help me
[00:05] <dimisdas> freshy: Back to action ... hehe :P
[00:05] <dimisdas> euxidia: me douleveis?
[00:05] <spoonman> recon69, did you do a fresh install, or an upgrade?
[00:05] <zilda> how do I change the language at login time? I have the additional language packs installed but I still don't see anything that would allow me to specify a different language on gdm. Any info is appreciated
[00:05] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: sorry, but if you said something, i accidentally closed my window, so :S
[00:05] <euxidia> ??????????????????????????????????
[00:05] <recon69> Slart: oddly for me that command does not show it at all
[00:06] <amenado> ChrissyW-> type this  sudo apt-get search xserver-xorg
[00:06] <Slart> zilda: looked at the system, administration, login window dialog? might be something there
[00:06] <filo1234> !firewire
[00:06] <ChrissyW> amenado: thanks I'll try that
[00:06] <Guest81952> Khari: The resolution is set to 1920x1200. What's to change?
[00:06] <Slart> recon69: mm.. I wonder if htop or ps is right.. I'm betting on ps
[00:06] <filo1234> have some wiki for firewire ports?
[00:06] <Freshy> i played with virtualbox, but had more luck with qemu... must have been the docs
[00:07] <gabbler> soul_sample: i wish i did :) but if it is tied to just those devices it looks like a driver problem, could you run a windows vm inside ubuntu, messy but it should work
[00:07] <zilda> Slart: I don't have anything like that.
[00:07] <ChrissyW> amenado: it tells me "E: Invalid Operation Search" when I try that.
[00:07] <zilda> Slart: The pages that I've seen so far suggest that there is a language selector somewhere on gdm, but I don't see it....
[00:07] <oscar_> Where can i get the upgrade for the amd64 proc? how is it called? im running x62 ubuntu
[00:07] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: well, then i'll stick with the max_sectors solution, even if i have to run it manually every time... i really try to get away from windows as much as i can ^^
[00:08] <Freshy> does anyone use hellaNZB?
[00:08] <recon69> spoonman: I upgraded, then I lost my HDD due to kernel panics, then I reinstalled, got loads of kernel panics, then lost my HDD completely ( failed SMART check) reinstalled. and still having lots of weird stuff
[00:08] <amenado> ChrissyW-> my fault.. sudo apt-cache search xserver-xorg
[00:08] <Slart> zilda: hmm.. hang on.. let me get my laptop and I'll take a look
[00:08] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: wine is all the windows i want to see
[00:08] <khari> Guest81952 there isn't much you can change in there, just wanted to check it was picking up the res correctly. you could try clicking on Detect Displays and see what that does for you
[00:08] <zilda> Slart: Thanks. By the way, I'm on hardy heron
[00:08] <Slart> oscar_: upgrade? x62 ubuntu? you mean a 64 bit kernel? don't bother
[00:08] <gabbler> soul_sample: try that link, in fact i am going to use that as well it will be really useful
[00:08] <roastbeef_k> anybody know what is putting the 'search "domain"' at the top of my resolv.conf every time? I want to get rid of it
[00:08] <spoonman> interesting, I have a crapload of console kit running in htop too
[00:08] <dimisdas> recon69: Have you got your settings saved in an another partition?
[00:08] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: i will now, i just hope it'll be easier than it looks on the first glance
[00:08] <Slart> roastbeef_k: dhcp is my guess
[00:08] <Guest81952> Khari: does nothing..
[00:09] <ChrissyW> amenado: wow, that brought up a huge list. so I find my graphics card in that list? How do I install it from there?
[00:09] <Freshy> nite everyone!
[00:09] <Guest81952> I need to try restarting. Hold on...
[00:09] <recon69> dimisdas: fortunately my user dirs where on a different partition and managed to keep everything important
[00:10] <amenado> ChrissyW-> pick the one that matches your video card and sudo apt-get install xserver-xxxxx
[00:10] <roastbeef_k> so, is that either dhclient or dhcdbd? I've looked in dhclient.conf but I don't know what to change
[00:10] <dimisdas> recon69: If i were you: Reinstall :P
[00:10] <ChrissyW> amenado: thanks so much!
[00:10] <amenado> ChrissyW-> i hope it helps..you're welcome ..
[00:11] <gabbler> soul_sample: have had a quick look, all you have to do is make a rule based on your usb and then run a script based on that
[00:11] <Slart> zilda: I have a language button on my login window.. next to the session and actions buttons
[00:11] <ChrissyW> amenado: now to figure out exactly what graphic card I have, lol.
[00:11] <intarwebz> hey have any of you had success spoofing your wifi card mac addresses?
[00:11] <recon69> dimisdas: it a full clean install, I just copied over datafiles from old partition, no settings
[00:11] <legend2440> ChrissyW: for that card install    xserver-xorg-video-intel  and   xserver-xorg-video-i810 it has the   i915   chipset
[00:11] <dimisdas> recon69: and you are still dealing with probs?
[00:11] <gabbler> soul_sample: if you also add a fstab entry it should make the rule simpler as the device will always be mounted as sdX
[00:11] <dimisdas> recon69: wow
[00:11] <recon69> my latest problem is i cant paste to paste bins
[00:12] <ChrissyW> legend2440: thanks a bunch!! I'll try that.
[00:12] <recon69> or post to the ubuntu forums
[00:12] <zilda> Slart: I don't see them. I'm starting to think that gdm is on one resolution while gnome itself is on another.
[00:12] <amenado> ChrissyW-> lshw -C video  or perhaps lspci |grep video  or xdpyinfo  ?
[00:12] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: all my devices so far got mounted on sdd, i don't know if it's luck or something
[00:12] <zilda> Slart: This is a laptop and I have never used ubuntu before, though I'm familiar with Linux
[00:12] <dimisdas> recon69: You can not post to ubuntu forums?
[00:12] <Slart> zilda: try using another gdm theme.. perhaps not all themes show the buttons
[00:12] <Knightly88> Does anyone know why PHP script has no permissions to create/write to files? I am the owner and Group "root" has create/write permissions... do I need to somehow give PHP or Apache permissions?
[00:12] <spoonman> slart, recon69: the appearance of dozens of instances of console-kit-daemon appears to be a display quirk: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4114488&postcount=14
[00:12] <zilda> Slart: Good idea!
[00:12] <gabbler> soul_sample: all your devices, i dont thinks that possible, or do you mean that device, use fdisk -l to check
[00:12] <zilda> Slart: Let m give it a shot and see what happens
[00:13] <dimisdas> gasgion: Geia sou
[00:13] <Slart> spoonman: ahh.. good find.. always wondered about that.. thanks!
[00:13] <amenado> Knightly88-> who owns the script?
[00:13] <recon69> well, had a kernal panic yesterday, but none since the last kernel update which was to day, so hoping that the kernel will stop crashing at least
[00:13] <pucko-> Knightly88, try setting it to the www-data group
[00:13] <zilda> Slart: I'll have to leave the channels for a few minutes as I'm running out of battery. Will try your suggestion and then I'll come back to let you know.
[00:13] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: yes, i meant my cellphone OR mp3, i never had them plugged in at the same time
[00:13] <zilda> Slart: Thanks a bunch!!!
[00:13] <Slart> zilda: I'm using the "Bijou" theme
[00:13] <Slart> zilda: you found it?
[00:13] <Knightly88> I am the owner of the file... my username...
[00:14] <Slart> zilda: ah.. ok.. see you later
[00:14] <amenado> roastbeef_k-> man resolv.conf
[00:14] <zilda> Slart: Bye!
[00:14] <dimisdas> How does theory tells you HOW something works, and it doesnt say why it is not working?
[00:14] <aic_> #ubuntu-de
[00:14] <gabbler> soul_sample: so all you should have to do is create the rule, add it to udev and then write a bash script, just remember to chmod +x
[00:14] <recon69> when i post to the ubuntu forms after about 5 min I get file save dialogue asking if i want to save or open so php file
[00:14] <dimisdas> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft i must be doing sth wrong
[00:14] <recon69> so/a
[00:14] <Knightly88> Pucko  www-data doesn't appear in the Group list... any idea why?
[00:15] <gabbler> soul_sample: so all you now need to do is learn bash ;)
[00:15] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: that sounds encourageing... i think i'll just stick to the music i have on my mp3 @ the moment :D
[00:15] <amenado> gabbler-> thats a monumental task, learning how udev works and events..:P
[00:15] <legend2440> ChrissyW: you will probably need to install    915resolution    also for that card
[00:15] <dimisdas> Wine is not working correctly and the fonts sucks! any idea?
[00:15] <recon69> so i about ubuntu'd out, shame after 3 years flawless use
[00:16] <ChrissyW> legend2440: how do I do that? btw I ran the other installs and it said that I already had the newest version of each. So maybe my video card drivers aren't my problem. hmm
[00:16] <gabbler> amenado: all soul_sample want to do is look for a specific event hopefully not learn everything about udev
[00:16] <elhoir> hello
[00:16] <pucko-> Knightly88, no, www-data is the default user that apache runs as, I think. thus your php script should will run as that user. perhaps check your apache config
[00:16] <gabbler> hopefully :)
[00:16] <roastbeef_k> amenado-> i looked there already. it says the default is the local domain name. mine is 'search "ISP"'
[00:16] <dimisdas>  /msg ubottu etiquette
[00:16] <robdeman> hi all -- my Ubuntu machine is connected to a WIFI network (1 floor above) using a PCI WIFI card --- but youtube etc. play really slow and lots of buffering -- my laptop (winxp) work sjust fine -- I have a really fast UPC 20 mbit connection... -- what makes Ubuntu so slow?/
[00:16] <dimisdas> damm
[00:16] <Lachlan> Hey guys, how can I get the exit code of the last command I ran?
[00:16] <amenado> recon69-> aws..just take a lil nap..have some pepsi or coke, and come back again tomorrow.. :P
[00:17] <elhoir> i dont know if i can ask for this here, but... does anyone know if there is any Getdeb repository working?
[00:17] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: i'll have to chmod both the rule and the script, or?
[00:17] <recon69> amenado: it been 3 months of this, dont think a nap going to work
[00:17] <legend2440> ChrissyW:   915resolution    is in synaptic   or in terminal type   sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[00:17] <trashguy> robdeman, interference, bad wifi drivers, lots of things
[00:17] <Knightly88> Pucko, Any idea what I am looking for in my Apache config? Thanks.
[00:17] <gabbler> soul_sample: just the script
[00:17] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: k, thx
[00:17] <legend2440> ChrissyW: what problem are you having?
[00:18] <gabbler> sould_sample: start off with a really simple script to test the rule and then move on
[00:18] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: but i'm positive i'll do something wrong :)
[00:18] <amenado> roastbeef_k-> that has to be combined with your /etc/hosts file
[00:18] <gabbler> soul_sample: i have confidence in you, don't worry
[00:18] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: well, all i need is a one line script to change the max_sectors... how much easier can it be?
[00:18] <limep1> hey there, I have a USB key that works with my v 7.04  liveCD, but I did something funky to my 8.10 install and now wifi doesn't work properly
[00:18] <pucko-> Knightly88, grep APACHE_RUN /etc/apache2/envars
[00:18] <gabbler> soul_sample: exactly
[00:18] <ChrissyW> legend2440: I installed Wine. And I can't get it to run a game, Ragnarok Online, that I've been trying to play through it. Someone suggested that the problem was my video card drivers but even after doing all of this, it still won't run.
[00:19] <gabbler> soul_sample: and solve world peace
[00:19] <limep1> I'm running off the liveCD right now, naturally
[00:19] <pucko-> Knightly88 envvars that is
[00:19] <alecwh> I want to make a video slideshow (pictures and music), and I don't know how to do this in Ubuntu. What programs do this?
[00:19] <recon69> funny thing is, if i did not have to use a encrypted wireless network I would down grade back to 6.06
[00:19] <spoonman> ChrissyW, did you install the game in Ubuntu, using Wine?
[00:19] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: i'm pretty sure that bashing can solve world peace. you just need to bash the right people
[00:19] <alecwh> !slideshow > alecwh
[00:19] <legend2440> ChrissyW: have you asked in channel  #winehq?
[00:19] <gabbler> soul_sample: :)
[00:19] <neil_d> what is the standard serial port known as ?
[00:19] <amenado> alecwh-> i dont know on top of my head, google for ubuntu making training videos
[00:20] <ChrissyW> spoonman: I installed it in Ubuntu, using Wine, yes.
[00:20] <spoonman> hmm
[00:20] <Knightly88> Pucko this is what I got: export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data
[00:20] <Knightly88> export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=www-data
[00:20] <amenado> neil_d-> ttyS0 or ttyS1
[00:20] <ChrissyW> legend2440: I didn't know there was a winehq channel, lol
[00:20] <roastbeef_k> amenado-> I just want to know what keeps updating that line, because I delete it and it comes back on the next reboot. I read that I don't need it, and I want to rule this line out
[00:20] <neil_d> amenado: thanks
[00:20] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: so if i put in a rule KERNEL=="sd?" and nothing else, it should apply to all usb devices, yes?
[00:20] <klaes> hey, i got some links in my /boot folder, but when i ls -l on them, it seems they link to something non-existent: config -> config-2.6.26-rc3-wl (it appears as red where normal links are light blue) safe to remove it you think?
[00:20] <ChrissyW> spoonman: I previously tried to run it under VMWare, but was unsuccessful as I got a graphic card error message
[00:20] <amenado> roastbeef_k-> look in your dhclient.conf  settings
[00:20] <sigma_> ChrissyW: be sure that you mean you downloaded the RO setup.exe and ran that program using wine -as opposed to installing it on a windows partition and then switching to ubuntu and running that
[00:20] <pucko-> Knightly88, ok. so why don't you have that group? see if it exists in /etc/group
[00:21] <quaal> where is the config file for gnome panel? i want to copy one of the launchers i have on it
[00:21] <roastbeef_k> amenado-> I have it open already. Is it the "request" line? should I delete somethign there?
[00:21] <ChrissyW> sigma_: I am sure. I downloaded it using Ubuntu and installed it using Wine. I didn't install it from a windows partition.
[00:21] <spoonman> ChrissyW, I don't know -- might want to try asking in #winehq
[00:22] <legend2440> ChrissyW: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240319
[00:22] <ChrissyW> spoonman: thanks, I will. XD
[00:22] <roastbeef_k> amenado-> basically all I have is a " send host-name" and "request (bunch of stuff)"
[00:22] <ChrissyW> legend2440: Thanks! I'll read that now.
[00:22] <gabbler> soul_sample: yes but remember to have 1 at the end because sd? is the root device not an actual partition

[00:27] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: what does fi stand for in a bash script? is it like the end of the program or sth?
[00:27] <Knightly88> Pucko, Ok, Thanks for your help.
[00:27] <Xires> can anyone point me to information on getting ytalk to work properly on Ubuntu? I have tried many things including different talk daemons and I'm always told that there is no talk daemon running

[00:27] <giacomo_carissim> i got the drivers off the ati website
[00:28] <spoonman> ah
[00:28] <Xires> Soul_Sample; it denotes the end of an 'if' statement

[00:29] <spoonman> EnvyNG, the most reliable way to install drivers not in the official repository is probably EnvyNG: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[00:29] <legend2440> giacomo_carissim:  have you checked if drivers are enabled in   System>Administration>Hardware Drivers?
[00:29] <spoonman> er
[00:29] <giacomo_carissim> hmmm, let me see
[00:29] <spoonman> giacomo_carissim, the most reliable way to install drivers not in the official repository is probably EnvyNG: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[00:30] <gabbler> soul_sample: its just used if the if statement the syntax is if...else...fi
[00:30] <bazhang> spoonman, that is in the repos envyng-gtk
[00:30] <bazhang> !info envyng-gtk | spoonman
[00:30] <spoonman> right
[00:30] <giacomo_carissim> im enabling the ati drivers under that system>admin>hardware drivers... does that change everything i've done with the downloaded drivers from ati's website?
[00:30] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: ok, so after i've chmoded the script, i need to udevconfig reload_rules and try to connect my device again?
[00:30] <klaes> amenado: got it?
[00:31] <gabbler> soul_sample: yep
[00:31] <Jack_Sparrow> spoonman Sending them to http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html    can lead to problems
[00:31] <spoonman> oh, sorry Jack_Sparrow
[00:31] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[00:31] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: nope, my max_sectors remained the same :|
[00:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy > spoonman
[00:32] <kthakore> how do I open java console to find out why an applet is not working (http://www.ninjavideo.net/applet.php )
[00:32] <gabbler> soul_sample: did the script run?
[00:32] <giacomo_carissim> does ubuntu keep the latest updated ati drivers?  basically i just want 3d to work so i can play some video games, i dont really care for compiz/beryl/eyecandy
[00:32] <Scientus> would it be posible to run a graphical session that is running off the local computer but whose files, etc, settings, everything but graphical packages come from a remote server via sshfs or ftp or samba?
[00:32] <legend2440> giacomo_carissim: that installs the ati open source drivers. if you want the proprietary drivers then use   envy-ng to install them. i have ati radeon and the open source drivers work well for me
[00:33] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: ok, scratch that, it's working now :O
[00:33] <gabbler> soul_sample: cool what did i do ;)
[00:33] <giacomo_carissim> hmm, im going to try and reboot and see what happens... thx guys, ill probably be back in a minute
[00:34] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: but i had to specify the device specifically to sdd, so if i get my usb device mounted as anything else, back to square one
[00:34] <gabbler> soul_sample: fstab
[00:34] <xcesarfrancox> Hello everyone, I have weird colors on my usplash when shutting down, anyone has a similar issue?
[00:34] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: care to elaborate that a bit more?
[00:34] <Slart> Scientus: I guess you could map the root drive using nfs or something and use that to read the files from.. that would use the current computer for all work but use the files, settings and such from the server
[00:34] <ChrissyW> Okay, this is probably a really obvious question, I'm just still getting used to the terminal... how do I navigate to different folders on my hard drive using the terminal?
[00:34] <Xires> xcesarfrancox; LCD panel?
[00:34] <jrib> !cli > ChrissyW (read the private message from ubottu)
[00:34] <xcesarfrancox> yup
[00:35] <Xires> xcesarfrancox; laptop or no?
[00:35] <Slart> Scientus: not sure if you can mount the root drive like that.. but it's worth checking
[00:35] <Bizzeh> if i wanna totaly null a drive so there is nothing at all left on it, even the partition tables, guid tables.. everything that anything might pick up on... i wanna do "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sde" right? (assuming the drive is /dev/sde)
[00:35] <Scientus> Slart: but would graphical programs continue to work--could you still launch them?
[00:35] <ChrissyW> jrib: thanks
[00:35] <amenado> klaes you didnt show if there were any symlinks in htat /boot dir.. try to do a   ls -la
[00:35] <xcesarfrancox> Xires: it happens on my laptop and on my desktop
[00:35] <Slart> Bizzeh: there is a program called wipe.. it writes random patterns and such
[00:35] <recon69> ChrissyW: easy "cd <dir>" or "cd .." to go back
[00:35] <gabbler> soul_sample: fstab controls what is mounted and how, if you look at the fstab you will see a uuid, you can use this among other things to uniquely identify your device so it gets loaded as something specific and the smae each time
[00:35] <Scientus> Slart: or would you have to do a fancy chroot and export path thing?
[00:35] <Slart> Scientus: I can't really see why not
[00:35] <Scientus> ok
[00:35] <gabbler> soul_sample: the command to check uuids, is sudo blkid
[00:35] <Bizzeh> Slart:  wanna make sure it has nothing at all, no data, recognisable or otherwise
[00:36] <Slart> Scientus: all this mapping of drives would have to be done before any graphical system starts though
[00:36] <amenado> ChrissyW-> I hope you remember your dos days using your dos commands, similar concepts..
[00:36] <Xires> xcesarfrancox; then I'd say it's having difficulties switching color depths..if it's a radeon chipset, check radeontool..it might help, might not
[00:36] <Slart> Bizzeh: sounds like a job for wipe.. it's what I use for drives before I give them away
[00:36] <trashguy> linux is no where near dos
[00:36] <trashguy> ^^
[00:36] <Xires> xcesarfrancox; sorry I can't really help further
[00:36] <Agent_bob> hmmm process " 14920 tty24 S+ 0:00 grep -HiRe /z: .  "  seems to be stalled out or looping one'r t'other    is there any way to findout exactly what it's doing ?
[00:36] <Slart> Bizzeh: takes a couple of days for a normal drive ~300Gb
[00:36] <ChrissyW> amenado: Unfortunately, i don't remember many of my dos commands. I think I was probably twelve the last time I really used DOS extensively.
[00:36] <Scientus> Slart: so like mount, chroot, then what?
[00:36] <Bizzeh> Slart: cant be an app that looks up for any data at all... (this is why i used dd in the first place)
[00:36] <trashguy> dos/nt is more like vms
[00:36] <xcesarfrancox> Xires: It's ok, thanks
[00:36] <giacomo_carissim> hey, i think it worked, it didnt just give me a white screen and fglrxinfo came back with ati instead of mesa... but does this mean that i didn't need the ati drivers from their website?
[00:37] <Sithe> I upgraded to 8.04 now when ever I log in it just hangs there at a blank orange screen.
[00:37] <Slart> Scientus: I don't know how to do it.. I just said there ought to be a way to do it =)
[00:37] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: ok, so far i'm with you... but what exactly do i need to put in fstab?
[00:37] <Slart> !info wipe
[00:37] <klaes> amenado: doh, sry, here ya go... http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d18c7b51d
[00:37] <Xires> can anyone point me to information on getting ytalk to work properly on Ubuntu? I have tried many things including different talk daemons and I'm always told that there is no talk daemon running
[00:37] <ShadowKnight> Sithe: did you try running in the command line?
[00:37] <amenado> ChrissyW-> okay, maybe you can get one of these online tutorials for bunch of the command line "commands"
[00:37] <spoonman> Sithe, have you tried booting into Recovery Mode? It's an option in the bootloader before Ubuntu starts loading
[00:37] <Scientus> Slart: ok, just seems like a fancy way to be noobie oriented but not have to install a graphical environment on servers
[00:37] <gabbler> soul_sample: now if i tell you where is the fun for you? :)
[00:37] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: How does one do that? O:
[00:37] <ChrissyW> amenado: Yeah, I'm looking for one right now
[00:37] <recon69> giacomo_carissim: well yes. if you enabled the restricted drivers you got the ati drivers running now
[00:38] <ChrissyW> amenado: *through one, not for one
[00:38] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: fun is in me being able to put some new music on my mp3 by morning when i have to drive for 4 hours? :D
[00:38] <ShadowKnight> Sithe:　ctrl-alt-F1 will open a command line.
[00:38] <legend2440> giacomo_carissim: in terminal type   glxinfo | grep direct  and make sure direct rendering is enabled
[00:38] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: I'll try it hold on
[00:38] <Agent_bob> knee 1 ?
[00:38] <trashguy> That take syou to a different terminal
[00:38] <klaes> amenado: its the config file, System.map and vmlinuz im wondering about ofc...
[00:38] <amenado> klaes->again you used only ls, try   ls -la
[00:39] <gabbler> soul_sample: thats what an alarm clock is for, set it a few hours earlier and voila :P
[00:39] <ShadowKnight> Um Sithe, if you're still there... ctrl-alt-f7 will get you back to the GUI...
[00:39] <jacoblyles> Has anybody gotten the videos at railscasts.com to work in Ubuntu? They appear to be in the .mov format and I can't get them to work.
[00:39] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: ok, ok, i'll try on my own :)
[00:39] <klaes> amenado: ehm... its showing all the links for me... http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d18c7b51d
[00:39] <gabbler> soul_sample: hang on, hang on, im looking for an example for you...
[00:39] <ChrissyW> amenado: Question for you. I'm in directory /.wine/drive_c$. When I type dir, I get "Program/ Files windows" comes up as folders in the directory. I'm trying to get into the Program Files directory, but typing Program doesn't work, nor does typing Program Files or Program/ Files. Any idea how I get into that directory?
[00:39] <jacoblyles> I'm on 8.04 x64 version
[00:40] <amenado> klaes-> ahh i didnt open it..anyways one symlinks points to nowhere so you can delete that
[00:40] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: Yes the command line opens
[00:40] <Slart> ChrissyW: Program\ Files.. remember case sensitive
[00:40] <ShadowKnight> Can you log in, Sithe?
[00:40] <Slart> ChrissyW: or use <tab> for autocompletion
[00:40] <legend2440> ChrissyW: if you inastall   nautilus-open-terminal   it adds a menu item so when you right click inside any folder you can open a terminal there.. save a lot of time and typing
[00:40] <ChrissyW> I tried it case sensitive.
[00:40] <klaes> amenado: :P dont all 3 symlinks point nowhere it seems?
[00:40] <trashguy> ChrissyW, what are u trying to do, show files you use ls
[00:40] <ChrissyW> legend2440 I'll do that, thanks.
[00:40] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: I could already from the GUI. But AFTER I login in it just hangs at that orange screen (the one before the desktop loads). So basically the desktop doesn't load.
[00:41] <recon69> ChrissyW: could be that space causing problems
[00:41] <amenado> ChrissyW-> escape the space with  \
[00:41] <ChrissyW> amenado: okay thanks
[00:41] <Agent_bob> klaes readlink -f blah
[00:41] <trashguy> ChrissyW, also bash support auto complete so type few letter you want and it tab
[00:41] <amenado> klaes-> yes.. so yeah you can delete those useless symlinks
[00:41] <ShadowKnight> Right, Sithe, so what I'm saying is that if you can run everything normally from the command line, the install is probably fine, but you don't have the right video drivers.
[00:41] <Xires> can anyone point me to information on getting ytalk to work properly on Ubuntu? I have tried many things including different talk daemons and I'm always told that there is no talk daemon running
[00:41] <gabbler> soul_sample: here is a start, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131
[00:42] <Bizzeh> Sending a USR1 signal to a running `dd' process makes it
[00:42] <Bizzeh> print I/O statistics to standard error and then resume copying. << how do you send USR1 ?
[00:42] <Sithe> ShadowKnight:  Ohh =\
[00:42] <Agent_bob> anyway to see what a process is actually doing ?
[00:42] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: Is there a command to get the right ones?
[00:42] <ShadowKnight> Sithe: what video card are you running?
[00:42] <klaes> Agent_bob: got it :)
[00:42] <ChrissyW> trashguy: sweet thanks. The tab worked. It was because even though it said it was "Program\ Files" it was "Program\ Files/" odd.
[00:42] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: I honestly have no idea. Its an old laptop with an integrated graphics card.
[00:42] <klaes> amenado: good good, n thx :)
[00:42] <amenado> Xires-> how are you running the daemon?
[00:43] <Storrgie> SeaPhor: you there?
[00:43] <amenado> klaes okay..you're welcome
[00:43] <recon69> ChrissyW: no , it was the space, you can leave off the last / and have no problems
[00:43] <Xires> amenado; I've tried via inetutils-inetd, xinetd and openbsd-inetd
[00:43] <ShadowKnight> Sithe: Hmm. Well that's a problem since there are different drivers for different cards.
[00:43] <Bizzeh> anyone, how would i send a usr1 signal?
[00:43] <ChrissyW> recon69: oh okay, thanks.
[00:43] <euxidia> how to install the ati 9550 pro driver???????,
[00:44] <Xires> amenado; I have also tried default configs, modified(to copy from a working Debian sconfiguration) and something found on forums
[00:44] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: It was working fine before the upgrade
[00:44] <amenado> Xires-> and when you were using xinetd , they dont normally show up in ps,
[00:44] <spoonman> sithe, try lspci in the console, that should list something in the AGP section
[00:44] <ShadowKnight> Sithe: I'm not too experienced with video drivers, so you'd better ask someone else, but I suggest you do as was said above and try booting in safe mode and see what happens.
[00:44] <Agent_bob>    does anybody know anyway to see what a process is actually doing ?
[00:44] <Xires> amenado; I understand, I used netstat -lnpA inet to check that it was running
 SeaPhor: you there?
[00:45] <legend2440> euxidia: have you checked   System>Aministration>Hardware Drivers to see if there is a box in there to enable drivers?
[00:45] <amenado> Xires  the tcpwrappers with xinetd runs and only calls your daemon as needed
[00:45] <Storrgie> SeaPhor: I pmed you
[00:45] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: i think i don't understand this. how exactly do i specify that i want my cellphone as sdd ... the only place where i see those marks in fstab is under comments
[00:45] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: Agi Radeon RV250
[00:45] <Sithe> ShadowKnight: Wups ATI*
[00:45] <gabbler> soul_sample: now that you are a udev expert i have found this as well, http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2006/12/06/how-to-always-mount-removable-drives-in-the-same-place-ubuntu-6061-610/
[00:45] <Xires> amenado; correct, but when the client attempts connection, it reports that no daemon is running
[00:45] <recon69> Agent_bob: think the only way is to have the source, compile a debug version and use gdb debugger.
[00:45] <pavan> hello can anyone help me
[00:46] <Sithe> Spoonman: Thanks
[00:46] <Xires> amenado; this occurs with all above mentioned configurations
[00:46] <amenado> Xires-> try to enable debugging on or syslogging,  so you can see if it is alive
[00:46] <euxidia> i'm having trouble installing my graphic card
[00:46] <euxidia> ???????????????
[00:46] <XB23> guys how do i find the ip to a user currently logged into ssh
[00:46] <euxidia> can u help me?????????????????
[00:46] <recon69> Agent_bob: not a very straight forward thing to try.
[00:46] <ShadowKnight> Sithe: I run an Nvidia, so I definitely can't help you... Sorry.
[00:46] <bazhang> !helpme | euxidia
[00:46] <amenado> XB23-> try   lsof -i
[00:47] <Agent_bob> recon69 nothing in /proc or anywhere that can show it ?     i mean i could start it with strace  but i want to knw what has it hung right now.  might not hang next time.
[00:47] <Xires> amenado; I have checked /var/log/daemon.log and it is reported as alive..inetutils-inetd reported an issue with 'nobody.tty' not existing, I patched /etc/inetd.conf to compensate..the service ran, ytalk still reports 'no daemon'
[00:47] <euxidia> ok
[00:47] <Sithe> I just upgraded to 8.04 and after I log in it just hangs at the orange screen and doesn't load the desktop. Running an ATI Radeon RV250.
[00:47] <recon69> Agent_bob: far beyond my skills
[00:47] <Agent_bob> recon69 k.
[00:47] <pavan> I have 2 hard drives in my pc. and i installed ubuntu in 1st hard drive, now i want to uninstall that and install it in 2nd hard disk,
[00:48] <amenado> Xires thats a tuff one to find then.. sorry dont have much more info
[00:48] <legend2440> euxidia: you are having problem physically installing card in the computer?
[00:48] <Agent_bob> pavan why not just move it ?
[00:48] <spoonman> sithe, I would try booting into Recovery Mode -- all things being equal, Ubuntu should have no trouble identifying your vid card and loading the proper drivers
[00:48] <Xires> amenado; alright, ty..I just wanted to double-check that I'd tried everything
[00:48] <pavan> but how to move it?
[00:48] <Agent_bob> pavan ummm skill level might be a problem then...
[00:48] <Sithe> Spoonman: How does one boot into recovery mode?
[00:48] <Agent_bob> disreguard
[00:49] <amenado> Xires-> come to think of it, is the client on same box or from an external remote host?
[00:49] <ShadowKnight> Brb everyone
[00:49] <amenado> Xires perhaps the firewall is preventing it from connecting in?
[00:49] <pavan> pls try to help me in moving it
[00:49] <spoonman> sithe, it's an option in the boot loader, a menu that shows up before the Ubuntu load screen
[00:49] <Sithe> Spoonman: I don't have a boot loader :\
[00:49] <Sithe> Spoonman: Never have
[00:49] <spoonman> ah...
[00:50] <recon69> Sithe: that menu might not show automatically, not sure of the key you need to press when booting , it's delete or esp
[00:50] <recon69> esp/esc
[00:50] <Sithe> Recon69: Alright I go do that. Brb
[00:50] <Xires> amenado; same machine, trying to ytalk between 2 terms..iptables flushed and policy set to ACCEPT../etc/hosts is set up correctly as well..however, I have not checked /etc/nsswitch.conf and DNS configuration
[00:50] <pavan> pl help me
[00:50] <chmac> Is it possible to install NetworkManager 0.7 in Ubuntu 8.04?
[00:50] <recon69> Sithe: if you go to the bios , just exit and keep tring
[00:50] <bazhang> pavan, move what
[00:51] <Xires> bazhang; pavan wants to move the system from 1 HDD to a newly installed drive
[00:51] <pavan> move ubuntu installed in 1 hard drive to 2nd hard drive
[00:51] <Agent_bob> pavan you could either make an exact copy of the installations partition on the other disk with dd (assuming you have partitions, and that size constraints allow)   or you could make a linux fs and copy all the installed system to the new home.    but if i'm talking gibberish,  your're better off just installing clean on the other hdd and then deleting the partition it's now on.
[00:52] <bazhang> pavan, better to just install unless you want to do some reading on how to do this.
[00:52] <Sithe> Spoonman: Alright I'm in recovery mode.
[00:52] <bazhang> Xires, thanks
[00:52] <Xires> bazhang; np
[00:52] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: well, i must admit taht i got lost now, but nevermind, it's working, it always mounts my first connected device as sdd
[00:52] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: so far i'll leave it at that, thank you so much :)

[00:53] <pavan> but how to delete ubuntu from 1st hard disk?
[00:53] <spoonman> sithe, I gotta go AFK for a few minutes, but take a look at this
[00:54] <spoonman> !res > sithe
[00:54] <Agent_bob> paven simply delete the partition it's on.
[00:54] <gabbler> soul_sample: the thing we need in ubuntu now is actually ATTRS{serial}
[00:54] <pavan> any can that be done?
[00:54] <amenado> pavan worry about it once you have a new install on your new hard disk..you may find out later you want to retrieve some old files there
[00:54] <gabbler> soul_sample: and then the rest should work
[00:54] <bazhang> pavan gparted
[00:54] <pavan> ok
[00:55] <yell0w> NetEcho: update-alternatives --config java
[00:55] <tj83> sudo apt-get install gparted
[00:55] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: i got lost in the process of formatting the file, i really couldn't understand what to write and where
[00:55] <NetEcho> yell0w already got it lol
[00:55] <Agent_bob> paven there are lots of tools that can do that, both from M$ and from linux   gparted cfdisk fdisk  are some linux tools.   fdisk is a standard M$ tool also
[00:55] <yell0w> NetEcho: ok
[00:55] <gabbler> soul_sample: formatting the file what do you mean
[00:57] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: formatting the text,  i meant - i don't understand what information i need to type where
[00:57] <gabbler> soul_sample: did you create you rule and then chmod it ?
[00:58] <Soul_Sample> yes, that part is working great :)
[00:58] <julius> Hello, does one of you know something about librxtx-java ? I need to have com ports in a program but it doesn't appear :/ I don't know why. I don't think It's a daemon. The program needs librxtx-java-2.1. I installed it but nothing has changed :/
[00:58] <Agent_bob> paven "partition magic" seems to be a favorite M$ tool for working with partitions.     as for gparted it's on the ubuntu live CD's and there is a "gparted live CD"  as well
[00:58] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: i've just put some new music on my mp3 and it's working great
[00:58] <cyphase> Does anyone have any suggestions for the best settings to use for when tunneling VNC through an SSH connection over broadband? Should I use SSH compression? What sort of encoding should I use for VNC?
[00:58] <gabbler> soul_sample: cool
[00:59] <cyphase> i haven't had to many problems, but i thought i might try something new
[00:59] <gabbler> soul_sample: glad it works well, the link i sent you about udev and mounting should also work, if you need it
[00:59] <Agent_bob> SOP "if it isn't broken, configure it"
[00:59] <Bizzeh> right, i have a 2gb sd card.. i have seen it be a 2gb sd card.. one day, all the data went off it.. i formatted it.. and for some reason, i can only access 1gb of the card now... even after nulling the whole disk... its still only allowing access to 1gb... anyone ever had any sort of problem like this?
[00:59] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: right now i'll settle with this, but sure i'll explore further regions of udev, bash and other nice things when the right time comes (that is, when something doesn't work again :) )
[01:00] <gabbler> soul_sample: an example to put in the udev rule would be, BUS=="usb", ATTRS{serial}=="RD43Q1OX" , NAME{all_partitions}=="temp"
[01:00] <gabbler> soul-sample: np, glad i could help, i accept all forms of cc :)

[01:00] <Agent_bob> Bizzeh never seen that myself,  but it sounds like the card may be dying.
[01:01] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: that seems to be the running joke in the linux community or i'll really owe a bunch of people a bunch of money? :D
[01:01] <Sithe> Soul_Sample: Oh. He isn't joking
[01:01] <gabbler> soul_sample: really, god knows how much i owe then :)
[01:02] <Soul_Sample> gabbler: well, own-age is one of the reasons why i switched to linux. got tired of having to look for keygens and cracks for everything :P
[01:02] <Sithe> Soul_Sample: Quick I hear the cops
[01:03] <gabbler> soul_sample: i know what you mean, it might take a bit to get where you need to go, but its all free
[01:03] <XB23> guys how do i find the ip to a user currently logged into ssh
[01:03] <euxidia> i'm having trouble installing my ati 9550card can u help me????
[01:03] <Soul_Sample> Sithe: not in croatia, you're not. here piracy is at it's peak for almost... forever now... but i hear that the cops crashed a pc in some bar the other day because it had CROATIAN illegal mp3's on the drive. so the law is working, but only for some things.

[01:07] <armednuke> hey, i'm pretty new to ubuntu and completely new to irc. does anyone know what would be good antivirus software for ubuntu?
[01:07] <giacomo_carissim> ok, new problem.  im trying to install the murrine engine, but when i try to run ./configure, it says there is no GTK
[01:07] <erichammond> My wireless keeps switching back and forth "eth1: switched to short barker preamble" / "eth1: switched to long barker preamble"
[01:07] <bazhang> armednuke, clamav
[01:07] <Soul_Sample> armednuke: you probably won't need antivirus software on ubuntu
[01:07] <kahrytan> armednuke,  Its not needed but avg, avast, clamav
[01:07] <armednuke> thankyou
[01:07] <recon69> euxidia: well how far you got, can you get the GUI up?
[01:07] <armednuke> i will take a note of those names
[01:07] <danbhfive> !virus > armednuke
[01:08] <kahrytan> armednuke,  all three have linux viruses
[01:08] <kahrytan> armednuke,  all three have linux versions ***
[01:08] <armednuke> k
[01:08] <spoonman> sithe, I've been Googling around, and I don't know a good way to fix a completely blank desktop -- you can use fsck, but I don't have a lot of experience with that
[01:08] <kahrytan> armednuke,  Linux only has few viruses and those are inert.
[01:09] <spoonman> fsck can trash your filesystem if you don't know exactly what you're doing
[01:09] <kahrytan> Does having /boot partition enable someone to have multiple distros using the /boot ?
[01:09] <powertool|lappy> I have a bcm43xx card, is the fw-cutter method better, or the ndiswrapper?
[01:09] <Gaming4JC> beli: It worked! IT'S AWESOME!!!!... thanks. :D
[01:09] <SNESLink> Hey, I was wondering if I created a new user account in ubuntu and installed KDE through it, would all of the KDE apps still show up in my other accounts?
[01:10] <Agent_bob> spoonman it "shouldn't"  but you can get it too  yes.
[01:10] <Sithe> spoonman: Alright Ill try that thanks
[01:10] <kahrytan> SNESLink, Yes
[01:10] <Agent_bob> kahrytan yes.
[01:10] <amenado> kahrytan-> yes its possible
[01:10] <ShadowKnight> SNESLink: if you install it as root.
[01:11] <Gaming4JC> It was very elementary, I mean everyone thinks of setting up Open SSH server behind firewalls to allow a virtual computer to SFTP over to the host computer. I should have thought of that. o_O
[01:11] <Gaming4JC> lol but thanks guys.
[01:11] <benny> whats better 7.10 or 8.04 for bcm4318 card
[01:11] <kahrytan> amenado,  what do you mean its possible
[01:11] <benny> 7.04 worked great
[01:12] <kahrytan> benny,  you should upgrade to lts
[01:12] <powertool|lappy> benny: Did you use fw-cutter or ndiswrapper with 7.04?
[01:12] <Brian88> hi. do you know how to set my monitor's resolution to 1152x864? my monitor supports it but in resolution window only displays 1024x768 and 1152x768
[01:12] <Kidfork> Whats the difference between a 32bit computer and a 64bit and how can i upgrade
[01:12] <kahrytan> benny,  have you tried Lint Mint 5 (Elyssa) ?
[01:12] <benny> I was thinking the nic was going
[01:12] <SNESLink> is there a way around that, or will I just have to go in to my menu settings in gnome afterwards ad disable the kde apps individually?
[01:13] <BoNe> anyone ever installed eyeOS onto a Ubuntu Server 8.04
[01:13] <kahrytan> benny,  have you tried Linux*** Mint 5 (Elyssa) ?
[01:13] <ShadowKnight> Kidfork: 64 bits run 64 bit programs faster. You need to buy a new computer to upgrade.
[01:13] <bazhang> kahrytan, are you recommending mint in #ubuntu?
[01:13] <benny> no I havent but older versions
[01:13] <chmac> Can anyone recommend a program (preferably a daemon) to monitor bandwidth usage on my 3g modem?
[01:13] <spoonman> tsk
[01:13] <chmac> I want to avoid nasty over-limit bills at $150 per GB :)
[01:13] <ShadowKnight> Kidfork: unless your mainboard already supports 64 bit cpu
[01:14] <ShadowKnight> Which I doubt it does if it's running a 32 bit now.
[01:14] <Kidfork> shadowknight: can i just buy a new processer or new mother board?
[01:14] <Kidfork> shadowknight: how can i tell?
[01:14] <benny> hey kakrytan I have used lts on my desktop works great
[01:14] <SNESLink> shadowknight: I run 32 bit with my AMD 64
[01:14] <kahrytan> bazhang, lol Of course. It is the same Elyssa is based off 8.04 with better support for codecs and hardware. If people got problems with ubuntu, Mint is a good logical step.
[01:14] <Agent_bob> chmac i know how to search for packages    apt-caghe search "band width" | less     but that's about all.
[01:14] <SNESLink> although it's the earlier 754 chipset
[01:15] <bazhang> kahrytan, that is not supported here. Don't recommend it here.
[01:15] <chmac> Agent_bob: Cool, thanks, I've found a few options there. I'm looking for a recommendation really. :)
[01:15] <Agent_bob> chmac like i said,   that's all i can do for you on that.
[01:15] <chmac> Agent_bob: :)
[01:16] <ShadowKnight> SNESLink: I never said a 64 bit won't run 32 bit programs. It's just not considerably faster.
[01:16] <SNESLink> ah, sorry, I misunderstood you
[01:16] <Roey> Hi, why do I get this weird error when mounting my SD card??  http://forums.opensuse.org/archives/sf-archives/software/345276-unable-mount-removable-media-hal-storage-removable-mount.html    <-- is there a fix for this?
[01:16] <bazhang> !mint > kahrytan
[01:16] <Agent_bob> chmac i'll tell you a channel that normally has some network guru's hanging around in it.   ##linux   might ask there.
[01:16] <ShadowKnight> Kidfork: I highly suggest you consult someone you know in meatspace to help you pick parts and assemble it.
[01:16] <chmac> Agent_bob: Ahh, good idea, thanks, will do :)

[01:17] <SNESLink> does anyone know of an ubuntu supported repository where I can download the 4.1 beta 2? of KDE?
[01:17] <Kidfork> Shadowknight: I built my own computer, im better internaly than virtualy
[01:18] <clop> hey guys, i'm on 7.04 feisty fawn right now, what's the command or program to use to upgrade to the latest?
[01:18] <kahrytan> SNESLink,  did you look in backports?
[01:18] <Agent_bob> !kde4 | SNESLink
[01:18] <ShadowKnight> Kidfork: then very carefully check the motherboard specs when you buy one and see if it supports your 64 bit processor of choice.
[01:19] <BoNe> eyeOS anyone?
[01:20] <SNESLink> clop: in terminal: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

[01:20] <Bizzeh> hey, something i noticed... i thought ubuntu was totaly free?
[01:20] <alinon> for some reason tasks are not showing up in AWN, and it won't let me add programs to it by dragging from the menu
[01:20] <alinon> any ideas?
[01:21] <clop> thanks guys
[01:21] <BoNe> Bizzeh, what is supposedly not free?
[01:21] <Agent_bob> Bizzeh all but the restricted crap
[01:21] <clop> wish me luck :)
[01:21] <SNESLink> clop: goodluck!
[01:21] <spoonman> Bizzeh: free as in beer, or free as in speech?
[01:21] <Agent_bob> oh and some of multiverse
[01:21] <Bizzeh> if ubuntu is totaly free, why are the name and logos trademarked and copyrighted.. this in its self is a restriction
[01:21] <BoNe> spoonman, beer aint free either :)
[01:21] <jpw27_> my computer has taken to shutting itself off.  it seems like it just loses power, but I can't diagnose the issue at all because sometimes I just reboot and everything's fine and sometimes I reboot and it shuts itself off before it hits GRUB.    how should i go about debugging this?
[01:21] <BoNe> Bizzeh, only the OS is free. The entity is protected
[01:21] <dabud>  hi i need some help getting xubuntu to recognize a hard drive
[01:21] <dabud>  it is listing it as a FAT   but I know it is an ntfs
[01:22] <alinon> anyone familiar with AWN?
[01:22] <Agent_bob> Bizzeh hehhe   :)
[01:22] <SNESLink> there are things such as open copyrights
[01:22] <Bizzeh> its still a copyright.. it still means someone owns the name and logos..
[01:22] <bazhang> !awn
[01:22] <ShadowKnight> jpw27_: check that your power button isn't damaged.
[01:22] <bazhang> alinon, see above
[01:22] <SNESLink> this keeps other companies from using their logo and pretending to be affiliated when they aren't really
[01:22] <alinon> bazhang, yeh..need some help with it ;)
[01:22] <Agent_bob> Bizzeh the GNU-GPL is a copyright too
[01:23] <BoNe> Bizzeh, the GPL logo is copyrighted, as well as the entity
[01:23] <spoonman> copyrights come in many flavors, bizzeh -- even man pages are copyrighted, but under GPL
[01:23] <recon69> jpw27_: check your cpu temp
[01:23] <danbhfive> Bizzeh: if you want something that free, you should look at debian.
[01:23] <BoNe> Agent_bob, we are thinking alike, thats bad
[01:23] <giacomo_carissim> ok, another question.  i've got my Logitech headphone/mic plugged in.  i switched everything to the usb audio, but i can only hear out of the right side.  i tried to adjust the levels but the left one stays all the way down all the time, how can i fix this?
[01:23] <euxidia> have ati radeon 9550 pro but get a blank screen when i enable restricted drivers???????????????????????????????
[01:23] <Agent_bob> BoNe :)
[01:23] <bazhang> take the copyright chat to offtopic BoNe Agent_bob Bizzeh
[01:23] <BoNe> Agent_bob, only means we have to be right
[01:23] <BoNe> bazhang, n/p. I'm just trying to get eyeOS help
[01:24] <jpw27_> recon69:  that's what I was thinking, because after I let my box sit for a while it seems stable now.  but i wasn't working my computer very hard when it shuts off, and it just starting doing this all of a sudden, within the last few days
[01:24] <xtknight> jpw27_, you can look at past syslogs
[01:24] <giacomo_carissim> does anyone know anything about usb headphones?  and why both channels won't stay equal?
[01:25] <xtknight> jpw27_, the cpu and motherboadr may by hitting a poweroff threshold due to temperature overheat
[01:26] <spoonman> jpw27_, that sounds like a hardware issue, like a dying fan
[01:26] <recon69> jpw27_: your fan could be busted or clogged with dirt, is this an old machine, and the next time it shuts down , go into the bios and check the temp, if it's over 70 you got a heat problem
[01:26] <xtknight> 70C that is, of course
[01:26] <jpw27_> recon69: no, it's about 6-7 months old
[01:26] <xtknight> i would check the temperatures in the bios right about now
[01:26] <xtknight> just reboot and check it out
[01:26] <euxidia> have ati radeon 9550 pro but get a black screen when i enable restricted drivers???????
[01:26] <PrimoTurbo> How would I use XFCE themes instead of GTK themes under gnome or say openbox?
[01:27] <xtknight> it should have something like PC Health section, if it is a new pc
[01:27] <recon69> jpw27_: still most likely cause of sudden computer shut down
[01:28]  * ace_suares is in da house
[01:28] <xtknight> if it's an oem you might not get those options, but if you got the board yourself it probably would.  but there are also programs that read a series of sensors on top of the CPU, like CoreTemp for windows or even the coretemp module for linux in conjunction with linux temperature programs
[01:28] <thiago> hi every one
[01:28] <xtknight> (lmsensors)
[01:28] <thiago> is anyone there?
[01:28] <ace_suares> !hi | thiago
[01:28] <ace_suares> !ask | thiago
[01:28] <recon69> lol, only about 1200 of us
[01:28] <pgreptom> Hi   I bought a new 19" widescreen monitor.. trying to use 1680 x 1050, but the highest it'll let me go is 1440x990.  It's 1080i compatible.. and I can go higher on other OS's.  Any ideas on how to do this?  I'm guessing my only way is editing xorg?
[01:29] <jpw27_> xtknight: i built the box myself, I'll look around for a temp program and see what it's at
[01:29] <gway9000> euxidia: happened to me last night i rebooted twice and it went away
[01:29] <thiago> hi! nice chatting with u guys
[01:29] <xtknight> pgreptom, do you know which 19" it is?  most 19" are 1440x900 only
[01:29] <xtknight> jpw27_, ok.  most intel core duo processors and AMD K8s have sensors onboard the cpu.  lmsensors should be able to read these
[01:29] <gway9000> euxidia: it went to 800x600
[01:29] <pgreptom> xtknight, I'm not sure.  When I play my PS3, it goes much much higher than 1440x900.. on Windows, it went to 1680x1050, and there was one option higher
[01:29] <xtknight> pgreptom, oh i see
[01:30] <giacomo_carissim> logitech headphone/mic, anyone know why the two channels won't stay consitent?  they stay together until i try and change the volume, at which point the left channel goes all the way down
[01:30] <spoonman> pgreptom, I don't know of any 19" monitors that can do 1920x1080
[01:30] <pgreptom> xtknight, It's 1080i compatible.. so when I play my PS3, it goes nuts.. I think it's.. yeah, as spoonman said.. 1920x1080
[01:30] <xtknight> some 19" monitors can do a "safemode" downscale of it
[01:30] <xtknight> but they do not have the physical pixels of 19201x200
[01:30] <xtknight> 1920x1200
[01:30] <Storrgie> anyone install nvidia-x-server settings?
[01:30] <gway9000> euxidia: when some smart person sees your ? you will be good to go
[01:30] <pgreptom> xtknight, I'm not sure.  Let me start my PS3, and I'll tell you.  give me a second :)
[01:30] <ace_suares> pgreptom: maybe http://www.simplehelp.net/mac/how-to-increase-the-screen-resolutions-available-to-ubuntu-while-running-in-parallels-for-os-x/
[01:31] <ace_suares> pgreptom: oh maybe not :-)
[01:31]  * gway9000 panders to see what the answer is
[01:31] <thiago> I'm having an issue with ubuntu 8.04, on the graphics. My card is a nforce 405, it shows everything correctly. But when I turn on the effects the graphical bugs starts
[01:31] <pgreptom> 1920x1080 @ 660z
[01:31] <xtknight> pgreptom, ya.  this is fine.  we just need to configure your ubuntu
[01:31] <pgreptom> spoonman,  and xtknight  - It just went to 1920x1080 at 60hz.
[01:31] <thiago> visual effects = none = ok
[01:31] <xtknight> pgreptom, first, what video adapter are you using?
[01:31] <xxen> hi
[01:31] <pgreptom> Video adapter?  video card is a nvidia 8500gt
[01:31] <spoonman> pgreptom, and stayed there? are you sure your monitor is 19"? :p
[01:31] <xtknight> pgreptom, have you installed the 'nvidia' proprietary driver for this card?
[01:31] <ace_suares> thiago: nforce ?
[01:32] <thiago> visual effects = normal or extra
[01:32] <xtknight> there's nothing wrong with a 19" showing 1920x1080
[01:32] <thiago> = bugs
[01:32] <xtknight> i know my 17" could
[01:32] <Soul_Sample> thiago: did you install the drivers for your graphic card? and nforce is a motherboard, not a graphic card
[01:32] <pgreptom> xtknight, Yes, it's installed.
[01:32] <pgreptom> spoonman,  lol, I'm pretty sure it's a 19" :P
[01:32] <xtknight> it doesn't have a tft array of 1920x1200 but can downscale
[01:32] <euxidia> have ati radeon 9550 pro but get a black screen when i enable restricted drivers???????
[01:32] <ShadowKnight> xtknight: 17" lcd or crt? Cuz for lcd that's amazing.
[01:32] <spoonman> downscaling is the same as operating at max res...
[01:32] <thiago> yes i know its a mb, but i'm using it's hardy Geforce 6100
[01:33] <xtknight> downscaling means it takes a signal higher than its native resolution, and converts it to the native resolution
[01:33] <Soul_Sample> thiago: did you install the drivers and enable them?
[01:33] <thiago> i've installed all the update, plus the nvidia drvier
[01:33] <pgreptom> so I can configure it to run 1900x1080, and 1680x1050?
[01:33] <spoonman> as far as the end user is concerned, their max res is still capped at the native res, with LCDs
[01:33] <xtknight> (most CRTs can't do this, as they were designed years ago and aren't generally being innovated any more)
[01:33] <thiago> yes've enabled them
[01:33] <Soul_Sample> thiago: and what kind of a bug do you get?
[01:33] <euxidia> have ati radeon 9550 pro but get a black screen when i enable restricted drivers???????
[01:33] <xtknight> if a PS3 can change the lcd to 1920x1200, so should a user be able to
[01:34] <ace_suares> thiago: I have a G70 (GeForce 7300 GT) and I had to enable Xgl to get it work. 'apt-get install Xgl'
[01:34] <xtknight> how, it depends.  sometimes the LCD wouldn't advertise that mode
[01:34] <ace_suares> thiago: sorry 'apt-get install xserver-xgl'.
[01:34] <giacomo_carissim> can someone help me with usb headphone trouble?  the left channel goes off if i try to change the volume
[01:34] <Soul_Sample> ace_suares: when i installed xgl i've lost direct rendering abilites, and games ran like crap
[01:34] <spoonman> xtknight, but it's not changing the resolution, the feed is merely being downscaled to the monitor's resolution
[01:34] <thiago> actually, the effects works, but the words of the window i'm using starts to disappear
[01:34] <thiago> so it's almost unusuable
[01:34] <xtknight> spoonman, ya it is not going to be convenient to use.  i'm honesly not sure why he'd want that for desktop use
[01:34] <nitai> any wasy  way to make a custom ubuntu cd that would include all my packages and my desktop setup meaning icon placements and so on ?
[01:34] <xtknight> but
[01:35] <ace_suares> Soul_Sample: yeah I can't play sauerbraten now but I have the compiz effects. If you know another solution it would be great :-)
[01:35] <xtknight> pgreptom, run "gksu nvidia-settings"
[01:35] <xtknight> the resolution might be available there
[01:35] <euxidia> have ati radeon 9550 pro but get a black screen when i enable restricted drivers???????
[01:35] <ShadowKnight> nitai: not if you have more than a few megabytes of data on your computer.
[01:35] <xtknight>  you may need to install nvidia-settings package first
[01:35] <Soul_Sample> ace_suares: well my deskopt effects work nicely on my nvidia drivers, so xgl is not needed for that. they just conflict with each other
[01:35] <jpw27_> lmsensors reports Core 0 at 48C and Core 1 at 51 C, I'll keep watching them.
[01:35] <ace_suares> thiago: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/89741
[01:35] <xtknight> jpw27_, and that's at fairly idle right?  try a cpu stress program and see what it goes up to
[01:36] <ace_suares> Soul_Sample: but you dont have a 7300 GT ?
[01:36] <giacomo_carissim> euxidia: i was having a similar problem after trying to install the drivers from the website.  is this what you did?
[01:36] <xxen> I want to use nautilus to browse on a remote server via scp, but it uses sftp and if enter scp as protocol it says it can not handle scp, but i read, that it can
[01:36] <Soul_Sample> ace_suares: well, no :)
[01:36] <xtknight> 50C idle is not too optimal although far from serious.  you'd have to see what (100%)load is
[01:36] <pgreptom> xtknight,  I'd settle for 1680x1050.  Nvidia-settings list 1440x900 as the highest
[01:36] <euxidia> have ati radeon 9550 pro but get a black screen when i enable restricted drivers???????
[01:36] <xxen> so what i have to do to use scp?
[01:36] <jpw27_> xtknight: yea, xchat, firefox, a terminal, and pidgin are all I have running
[01:36] <Storrgie> is there a way to run nvidia-x-server config as root, so it can modify the xconf file?
[01:36] <Soul_Sample> ace_suares: i have a 6600
[01:37] <ace_suares> xxen: http://sammoffatt.com.au/knowledge-base-mainmenu/6-daily-linux/9-scp-and-ssh
[01:37] <giacomo_carissim> Storrgie: can you not sudo it or su - or sudo bash?
[01:37] <recon69> euxidia: have you tried to use the envy installer?
[01:37] <ace_suares> Soul_Sample: well it wouldnt work without Xgl so i did that. I know it's bad.
[01:37] <xtknight> pgreptom, ok.  i think the lcd is not giving nvidia-settings the resolutions, through EDID.  there are options to ignore edid.  look up UseEDID in the nvidia linux driver manual, but you'd have to make your own modelines in order to use 1680x1050.  this can be tricky
[01:37] <bazhang> euxidia, people are answering you. Please read what they say and stop repeating the same question so often.
[01:37] <thiago> thanks ace_suares, that's the bug
[01:38] <ace_suares> thiago: I hope it helps.
[01:38] <BlakStone> Hello friends.
[01:38] <pgreptom> xtknight, Thanks for your help.  Sounds like more trouble than it's worth for something I don't even know if I'll like.
[01:38] <giacomo_carissim> hello BlakStone
[01:38] <xtknight> pgreptom, i dont think 1680x1050 on a 19"w is too confortamble
[01:38] <ace_suares> !hi | BlakStone
[01:38] <xtknight> comfortable  *8
[01:39] <xtknight> if you want to use this i would consider a bigger monitor
[01:39] <jpw27_> xtknight: now it's up to 50/53 and I've introduced no extra stress to it
[01:39] <pgreptom> xtknight, I guess it's all what you're used to.  I run 1680x1050 on a computer at work.. it's a 20" widescreen, or maybe a 19" widescreen.  Not sure.
[01:39] <xtknight> pgreptom, probably a 20,21,or 22
[01:39] <lastelement0> hey all im trying to run CS:S under wine. and i have steam set up. yet when i try to start the game, Steam just crashes. no error message or anything. what do i do?
[01:39] <pgreptom> I guess the next 22" I see on slickdeals I'll input my credit card for ;)
[01:39] <ace_suares> pgreptom: that's what I *didn't* say when I met my wife :-)
[01:40] <nitai> anyone have any knowledge on "Ubuntu Customization Kit" and what there end product is like ... do you get an exact copy of your setup including desktop ?
[01:40] <xtknight> pgreptom, yup.. or i could help you in offtopic (i have an lcd site)
[01:40] <pgreptom> It's not worth that much trouble man.  thanks enough for your help.. you helped me more than necessary.  I greatly appreciatei t.
[01:40] <pgreptom> I just have to work on selling this 19", and my 17" lol
[01:40] <xtknight> thats cool im glad youre enjoying ubuntu either way
[01:41] <DIL> i lost some of my screensaver themes
[01:41] <pgreptom> I've been using it for awhile now.. just haven't played with x much.  Casual user I guess.. music, movies, and games
[01:41] <ace_suares> pgreptom: I have 3072 x 1024 !
[01:41] <BonezAU> Hi all, I use auto-login on my Ubuntu box and I want to know how to perminantly authorize the network manager applet so it does not ask me to put in the password every time I reboot?
[01:41] <pgreptom> ace_suares,  Impressive.  What size monitor?
[01:42] <lastelement0> hey all im trying to run CS:S under wine. and i have steam set up. yet when i try to start the game, Steam just crashes. no error message or anything. what do i do?
[01:42] <Storrgie> anyone familiar with nvidia X server Settings?
[01:42] <xtknight> Storrgie, ya
[01:42] <pgreptom> lastelement0, Does it let you get into a game?  Like, actually load a match?
[01:42]  * IndyGunFreak has 2560x1280
[01:42] <giacomo_carissim> lastelement0: if things haven't changed in the last year when i tried it, xp may be your best bet :\
[01:42] <xxen> ace_suares,  i don't see there nothing it tested already. if understand it correct, it says, i have to use scp://  but it still doesen't work. Nautilus cannot handle scp: locations.
[01:42] <ace_suares> pgreptom: 17" lcd, but three of them (the fourth broke down). On two Nvidia G70 with compiz enabled and cairo-dock :-)
[01:42] <xtknight> at one point i had 3840x1200, UT2004 ran great on a 7800gt card
[01:42] <pgreptom> I run CSS in Wine.
[01:42] <Storrgie> xtknight: you have private channel?
[01:42] <lastelement0> pgreptom: i can't even start it. i click CS:S and steam crashes
[01:43] <pgreptom> lastelement0, Try purging the 1.0, and installing an older evrsion.  1.0 has given me many problems, I have resorted to 0.9.60, and all is well again.
[01:43] <xtknight> Storrgie, nope i prefer to chat here
[01:43] <ace_suares> !wine | lastelement0
[01:43] <xtknight> so others can learn too
[01:43] <BonezAU> Hi all, I use auto-login on my Ubuntu box and I want to know how to perminantly authorize the network manager applet so it does not ask me to put in the password every time I reboot?
[01:43] <lastelement0> pgreptom: how do i go about that
[01:43] <Storrgie> xtknight: when I go to add another monitor, it says that it needs to modify the xconf file.... wont work. Assuming it needs to be ran with super user privs
[01:44] <pgreptom> lastelement0, Well, "sudo apt-get purge wine" will purge the current 1.0.  Then just google: "wine 0.9.60 deb" - it'll pop up a result for WINEHQ's old versions.. download the .deb, and install it, and re-load your games :)
[01:44] <ace_suares> BonezAU: I have no clue, but why does network manager applet ask your password ? for what ?
[01:44] <xtknight> Storrgie, right.  you can run the program with "gksu nvidia-settings" to get past this.  i think the way they have it setup in the menu now is annoying without automatic superuser
[01:44] <xtknight> escalation
[01:44] <BonezAU> ace_suares: it says "Enter password for default keyring" and it wont proceed to connect to the network until i've entered the password
[01:44] <pgreptom> lastelement0, if it works - you'll probably want to google how to ignore a new software version in Synaptics.. because it will bug the hell out of you to update to 1.0.
[01:44] <ace_suares> if i start nvidia-settings nothing happens :-(
[01:44] <Ryuho> hi i'm writing a really simple script and i don't understand why it's not working... http://pastebin.com/d1956b806
[01:44] <ace_suares> BonezAU: so you have some kind of authentication for your network ?
[01:45] <xtknight> ace_suares, install it.  sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[01:45] <BonezAU> ace_suares: yes, WPA
[01:45] <spoonman> the easiest way to update to Wine 1.0 is to add its repository to sources.list
[01:45] <lsemple> anyone here know how to configure alsa ?
[01:45] <ace_suares> xtknight: cool I'll try that !
[01:46] <xtknight> ace_suares, but that program is only good if you have a card using the 'nvidia' driver
[01:46] <odinsbane> lastElement0 which version of wine did you get from the repositories?
[01:46] <ace_suares> xtknight: that's UNcool... it wasn't installed ! (but when doing alt-f2 it didn't complain it was not there !!!!!)
[01:46] <ace_suares> xtknight: I have two cards using the nvidia driver !
[01:46] <lastelement0> odinsbane its 1
[01:47] <ace_suares> BonezAU: well, auto-login means that you log in as the user to linux... but doesnt affect any other stuff...
[01:47] <RonLut> when I try to check for updates it says: W: GPG error: http://packages.medibuntu.org hardy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2EBC26B60C5A2783
[01:47] <RonLut> What's the problem?
[01:47] <xtknight> ace_suares, gksu will eat any errors, so you won't see them
[01:47] <odinsbane> have you gone to #winehq?  I upgraded and it stopped working then I went and got a newer version.
[01:47] <ace_suares> BonezAU: you need to check if the WPA key can be stored and remembered somewhere, i don't know ...
[01:47] <phaedral> I've tried installing new themes, and I get a dialog saying I've succeeded, but the new theme never shows in the picker dialog of System>Preferences>Appearance
[01:47] <phaedral> :(
[01:47] <pucko-> Ryuho, so I guess nothing happens after the ftp command?
[01:47] <ace_suares> xtknight: bad! I porb tried without gksudo too. I'll test and bug launchpad ...
[01:48] <dede> so bored
[01:48] <BonezAU> ace_suares: the WPA key is saved in network manager, but I think the problem is that network manager needs permission before it can use it or something?
[01:48] <Ryuho> yeah
[01:48] <Ryuho> pucko-:  that is correct
[01:48] <BonezAU> ace_suares: the password for the default keyring is different to my WPA key
[01:48] <ShadowKnight> gtg cya all.
[01:48] <dede> yep
[01:48] <Storrgie> how do i restart xserver?
[01:48] <Ryuho> <<END_SCRIPT needeD?
[01:49] <lastelement0> pgreptom: i just did that. and it still closed
[01:49] <RonLut> no one knows the answer? :(
[01:49] <ace_suares> xtknight:  hmm syas i dont use nvidia in xorg :-)
[01:49] <pgreptom> lastelement0, Might want to check out #winehq, and their forums - perhaps even regression testing.
[01:49] <xxen> nobody knows why this "Couldn't display<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Nautilus cannot handle scp: locations." happens?
[01:49] <Storrgie> xtknight: how do i restart xserever?
[01:49] <bazhang> dede you have a support question or just wish to chat--> #ubuntu-offtopic for chat
[01:49] <xtknight> ace_suares, nope, you're probably using the free driver instead of nvidia.com one
[01:49] <diecoz> ah
[01:49] <ace_suares> Storrgie: alt-ctrl-backspace
[01:49] <xtknight> Storrgie, you press ctrl+alt+backspace, keep in mind this kills your current session and all your data
[01:49] <recon69> xtknight: think the gksudo is used to avoid the gui messing up permissions on files.
[01:49] <Storrgie> hmm
[01:49] <xtknight> yup
[01:49] <odinsbane> Is there a way to set my ip with dhclient requests?
[01:49] <pgreptom> It's dinner time :)
[01:49] <xtknight> Storrgie, i mean not data
[01:50] <xtknight> Storrgie, but OPENED data
[01:50] <xtknight> like apps :)
[01:50] <Storrgie> xtknight: is it better to have the nvidia bin driver...
[01:50] <xtknight> if you dont save
[01:50] <Storrgie> xtknight: or to download from nvidia site
[01:50] <xtknight> Storrgie, unless you need 3d acceleration, i would say stick with the free driver
[01:50] <ace_suares> xtknight: well you were right before about installing the nvidia-settings, so I grep xorg.conf.
[01:50] <Storrgie> you know, System>Settings>hardware Driver
[01:50] <Storrgie> I need it, but i got it working with the one from hardware drivers
[01:50] <odinsbane> Its on when I do the upgrade it says wine is being held back and so are the new kernel
[01:50] <ace_suares> xtknight: 	Driver		"nvidia" (4x)
[01:50] <pucko-> Ryuho, i think you can fix it with lftp for example.
[01:50] <recon69> odinsbane: as far as i recall you can set that up in the hosts file.
[01:51] <xtknight> ace_suares, ah odd
[01:51] <pucko-> Ryuho, check the -c flag in lftp
[01:51] <egc> man, i love the 'bu
[01:51] <Ryuho> pucko-:  kay, thx
[01:51] <misfitofjoy> irc.rizon.net
[01:51] <odinsbane> recon69 I am not familiar with the hosts file.
[01:51] <xtknight> Storrgie, oh.  stick with the one from hardware drivers.  it's so much easier to deal with overall
[01:52] <xtknight> Storrgie, it's the same thing really
[01:52] <ace_suares> odinsbane: normally in network manager, but you can do it in /etc/network/interfaces too
[01:52] <sonicboom> holaaa
[01:52] <Storrgie> xtknight: thanks bud
[01:52] <Celanor>  I need help getting Skype to work on my 64bit installation, the i386 package from skype.com won't work on it
[01:52] <xtknight> Storrgie, just packaged by ubuntu for convenience
[01:52] <ace_suares> odinsbane: the hosts file is not the right one !
[01:52] <xtknight> no problem
[01:52] <xtknight> Celanor, add the Medibuntu repository.  it has skype for 64bit
[01:52] <Jack_Sparrow> !chroot > Celanor
[01:52] <xtknight> !medibuntu | Celanor
[01:53] <xtknight> most i386 apps can be run directly on 64-bit ubuntu
[01:53] <xtknight> as well
[01:53] <ace_suares> Celanor: you need to install the 32bit libs
[01:53] <odinsbane> It seems interfaces is when I want to do it automatically?  I still like to run dhclient.
[01:53] <Celanor> Thanks
[01:53] <LordOllie> anyone else ever have notification icons "stack", see paste. http://imagebin.ca/view/rbwKWra.html
[01:54] <Chauncellor> Hey, my fans are turning on way too late
[01:54] <ace_suares> Celanor: 'apt-get install ia32-libs'
[01:54] <Chauncellor> They turn on low when it hits 75 C
[01:54] <Chauncellor> How can I make them turn on at a lower temp?
[01:54] <ace_suares> odinsbane: it will run dhclioejnt automatically
[01:54] <Syeem> Celanor: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=432295
[01:54] <fg3> is daemontools a package for ubuntu?
[01:55] <spoonman> LordOllie, I can't get that image to load
[01:55] <spoonman> nm
[01:55] <ace_suares> fg3: yes. I like to install from cr.yp.to but you can install all the djb stuff with apt-get.
[01:55] <LordOllie> spoonman, weird or just me?
[01:56] <Chauncellor> so does anyone know how to change the temperature value to trigger the fans?
[01:56] <spoonman> LordOllie, I'm not familiar with the triangular icon or the note icon, sorry
[01:56] <Slart> fg3: nope.. it's windows only afaik
[01:56] <Slart> !mountiso | fg3
[01:56] <spoonman> i assume that's a musical note
[01:57] <fg3> huh
[01:57] <fg3> ubottu, I think you msged the wrong person
[01:57] <LordOllie> spoonman, the note icon is the same as the one to the left (banshee) and the triangle one (on top of it) is for retroshare
[01:57] <Kidfork> Anyone know where the next version of Ubuntu is coming out and what is it i.e(9.04, 9.10)?
[01:57] <bbto> Hi, need some help with OObase
[01:57] <spoonman> ahh
[01:57] <unop> !ibex
[01:58] <fg3> Slart, you msged the wrong person
[01:58] <Flannel> Kidfork: every six months.  So, 8.10 is next, after that is 9.04 after that will be 9.10, tec.
[01:58] <ace_suares> fg3: but i seem to not be able to find the deamontools package in hardy. It's there for sure in debian...
[01:58] <Kidfork> Flannel: I see
[01:58] <odinsbane> thanks
[01:58] <Chauncellor> Sorry to keep spamming this question, but I need to find out how to make the fans turn on at a lower temperature before my CPU melts
[01:58] <Shaba2> Hello all
[01:59] <Slart> fg3: "is daemontools a package for ubuntu?".. daemontools is a windows application for mounting isos and such... or you meant something else?
[01:59] <fg3> ace_suares, so can I get using apt-get y/n?
[01:59] <Shaba2> How do I stop my xubuntu machine from going to the screen saver.
[01:59] <fg3> Slart, I meant a startup mgmt system for *nix
[01:59] <ace_suares> fg3: it used to be there, but you can for sure use the debain packages (with wget and dpkg -i)
[01:59] <Slart> fg3: ah.. nevermind then
[01:59] <Shaba2> Well actually its not a screen saver it just gets a fuzzy screen with like 10000 lines on it. but then I press a key and its back
[01:59] <Flannel> !bum | fg3
[02:00] <fg3> ace_suares, thanks
[02:00] <pucko-> Chauncellor, that's usually handled in bios. might not be so easy to do in linux.
[02:00] <xxen> now someone who can help me with "Couldn't display<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Nautilus cannot handle scp: locations."?
[02:00] <LordOllie> Chauncellor, it may or may not be possible depending on your hardware.
[02:00] <marek`> hello
[02:00] <spoonman> lordollie, does this only happen with banshee? the multiple tray icons?
[02:00] <fg3> Flannel, thx
[02:00] <bbto> Hi, need some help with OObase. Any?
[02:00] <marek`> has anyone been able to set up dual monitors with dual video cards? one internal intel integrated card and one pci ati rage2 card?
[02:00] <Storrgie> anyone get color depth 30 to work?
[02:00] <pucko-> Chauncellor, though you might be able to use some acpi command.
[02:00] <ace_suares> fg3: packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/misc/daemontools-installer it is there in dapper
[02:00] <DIL> i lost some of my screensaver themes where do they reside on the system
[02:01] <Chauncellor> I can use acpi, but what good does that do me?
[02:01] <bbto> Hi, need some help with OObase. Any?
[02:01] <LordOllie> spoonman, sometimes banshee does that, but I have never had anything get over it so to speak.
[02:01] <spoonman> off
[02:01] <spoonman> *odd
[02:01] <fg3> ace_suares, thx again
[02:01] <bbto> Hi, need some help with OObase. Any?
[02:01] <LordOllie> spoonman, it isn't critical I just thought it was slightly odd.
[02:01] <Chauncellor> I can't find anywhere in my BIOS about temperatures
[02:01] <ace_suares> bbto: i think you need #openoffice
[02:01] <bbto> Hi, need some help with OObase. Any?
[02:01] <Storrgie> Anyone able to get 30bit color working?
[02:02] <carlosandres> hola
[02:02] <ace_suares> !openoffice | bbto
[02:02] <marek`> i have gotten both monitors and video cards to work separately, but when i add them both together and set xinerama to true the pci card/monitor do not show anything except ATI MACH64 BIOS
[02:02] <pucko-> Chauncellor, use lmsensors to read the temperature and then make acpi change settings perhaps?
[02:02] <carlosandres> alguien latino
[02:02] <Syeem> videos in full screen breaking up. ati radeon x2300. using propritory drivers
[02:02] <Chauncellor> hm... how could I go about changing acpi settings?
[02:02] <ace_suares> !es | carlosandres
[02:03] <xxen> Storrgie, i think  30 bit is to much for current hardware, 32 bit under windows is truly 24 bit
[02:03] <bbto> Thanks Ubottu
[02:03] <ace_suares> !br | carlosandres
[02:03] <Felonious> is there some kind of plugin to make gaim's task bar icon flash on a message?

[02:03] <carlosandres> no suerte
[02:03] <Storrgie> xxen: I was wondering, have a 9800gtx card
[02:03] <recon69> getting late, good night and good luck :)
[02:03] <Felonious> err not gaim... pidgin
[02:03] <bbto> Ubottu the channel doesn't exist
[02:04] <pucko-> Chauncellor, look in /etc/acpi
[02:04] <Shaba2> How do I stop my xubuntu machine from going to the screen saver.
[02:04] <Shaba2> Well actually its not a screen saver it just gets a fuzzy screen with like 10000 lines on it. but then I press a key and its back
[02:05] <marek`> bbto, 1) ace_suares was the one that told the bot to send that message to you, 2) you have typed the channel name in incorrectly
[02:05] <DIL> where are the screensaver files located  puhlease somebody.............. anybody............
[02:05] <xxen> Storrgie, im dont know any of this card, maybe it is possible with this card...
[02:06] <spoonman> !es | carlosandres
[02:06] <spoonman> doh
[02:07] <Chauncellor> God, Ubuntu does NOT work on this machine
[02:07] <Chauncellor> I give up. I'll just run it until it dies
[02:07] <Chauncellor> Thanks for your help
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> how do you figure it doesn't work?
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> !doesntwork | Chauncellor
[02:08] <marek`> it probably does work, you just havent figured out how to make it
[02:08] <eldustino> HI all, I need some help getting java working.  I'm running Hardy.  Check out this link http://pastebin.com/df4c82b9
[02:09] <amenado> it does not do windows
[02:09] <EverettgM1819> so what is the difference of irc.ubuntu.com and irc.freenode.net?
[02:09] <clintchance> Guys what do i do to make a modprobe stay with ubuntu after restart? as of right now i have to keep doing it
[02:09] <Flannel> EverettgM1819: The former points to the latter
[02:10] <EverettgM1819> ah
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> eldustino: are you using 64bit/
[02:10] <Shaba2> ace_suares are you here?
[02:10] <eldustino> no
[02:10] <ace_suares> Shaba2: yeah
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> eldustino: then why not just install java from the repos?
[02:10] <eldustino> Looks like I did, no?
[02:10] <EverettgM1819> how do i connect to irc.ubuntu.com?
[02:10] <eldustino> i = installed?
[02:11] <amenado> nope
[02:11] <Flannel> EverettgM1819: Even if you "connect" to it, you still connect to freenode, so don't worry too much about it
[02:11] <amenado> not installed
[02:12] <Chauncellor> Yeah, okay, whatever. Video card incompatibility, network card incompatibility.... okay
[02:12] <Chauncellor> I like it and all, but I really detest having to sit forever finding out why little things like disappearing icons or unresponsive programs happen
[02:12] <EverettgM1819> thanx that is all i needed
[02:12] <eldustino> $ aptitude search j2re
[02:12] <eldustino> i   sun-j2re1.5                                 - Java(TM) 2 RE, Standard Edition, Sun Microsystems(TM)
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> Chauncellor: your experience is the minority
[02:12] <clintchance> Guys what do i do to make a modprobe stay with ubuntu after restart? as of right now i have to keep doing it
[02:13] <DaveKong> you can add it to startup?
[02:13] <Chauncellor> In some aspects, no, it's not. Agere and Lucent winmodem support is something that many people have been wanting for some time.
[02:13] <Kidfork> You know the aluminum sticker you get when you buy a Windows PC it says "Desighed for Windows" where can i get my hands on a Ubunt usticker like that?
[02:13] <spoonman> winmodems?
[02:13] <Chauncellor> I'm hoping when I finally get a desktop it'll work much better
[02:13] <clintchance> davekong how
[02:13] <spoonman> they're called winmodems for a reason, Chauncey
[02:14] <pucko-> Chauncellor, so it's a laptop?
[02:14] <clintchance> Who needs help with a winmodem
[02:14] <Chauncellor> Yep
[02:14] <bazhang> Kidfork, tons of sites have them for printing, you can print them to sticker iirc
[02:14] <eldustino> IndyGunFreak: Am I missing something obvious?
[02:14] <clintchance> chauncellor, whats the brand and board ver
[02:14] <pucko-> Chauncellor, most likely an acpi bug then. an bios update fixes it in some cases.
[02:14] <Kidfork> bazhang: What should i type in google to find these sites
[02:15] <DaveKong> clintchance:  go system, preferences, sessions, add
[02:15] <Chauncellor> Winmodems ARE compatible, you just have to go through a million processes to get it to work because Ubuntu doesn't support it (partly because noone uses dial-up anymore.. >.>)
[02:15] <bazhang> Kidfork, let me check hang on a sec

[02:17] <Chauncellor> So does Ubuntu run a lot better on Desktops? I'd be a happy camper if it did...
[02:18] <DaveKong> clintchance:  My understanding of modprobe is that it is used to install modules... so once you install one then it should be there... I don't know why you would want to run it at startup... if so you would have to sudo though since you do normally

[02:24] <Kidfork> for open office
[02:24] <Dunas2> bazhang: The problem is that this isn't me trying to boot kde4, this is me trying to boot ubuntu after installing then deleting KDE4.

[02:25] <asmo[B]> the only download I could find for ms silver-light is a .exe

[02:28] <Storrgi1> When i leave my laptop for a minute or two and come back.... it takes my keyboard and mouse a while to respond.....
[02:29] <zombiebox> what do the program imapd doing in unix?
[02:29] <pucko-> eldustino, ok, you have several versions there. you can change them with sudo update-alternatives --config java, but to have java functioning fully you probably need to update several links.
[02:29] <Drk_Guy> Hi

[02:29] <eldustino> pucko: Thanks man!  I created a new symlink
[02:30] <cornell> Hi...  Got a new laptop...  with WinXP.  I want to install, dual boot, Gutsy.  During the install of Gutsy, there comes a time when you can resize the partition to create space for a new one.  Is that resize "intelligent", will the WinXP survive?  Or does it just change the partition table?
[02:30] <eldustino> pucko: I just did: $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java /usr/bin/java
[02:30] <pos69sum> i'm trying to upgrade to ubuntu 8 from dapper
[02:30] <AcBush> I installed my drivers for nvidia on a new 8.04 install - now on boot, it shows "No Signal" - how do I fix?
[02:30] <eldustino> pucko:  Think I'll be cool?
[02:30] <pos69sum> i am not seeing the upgrade option in update-manager
[02:31] <bazhang> cornell, the guided normally handles that fine.
[02:31] <genii> cornell: So long as the ntfs is marked clean by XP it will properly resize. So long as you don't make it smaller than how much data is on it right now.
[02:31] <pucko-> eldustino, it will work, but it's not really a good solution
[02:31] <Lounge> cornell: Yes winxp will survive
[02:31] <Drk_Guy> AcBush, try reconfiguring usplash, sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash
[02:31] <pos69sum> i made sure dapper-updates was enabled
[02:31] <Storrgi1> When i leave my laptop for a minute or two and come back.... it takes my keyboard and mouse a while to respond..... is this a common issue?
[02:31] <AcBush> How do I get into Ubuntu? It goes to No Signal as soon as I choose Ubuntu or Windows XP Home..
[02:31] <pos69sum> any suggestions?
[02:31] <AcBush> Windows XP Works fine.
[02:31] <AcBush> Ubuntu, does not.
[02:31] <FAHTAW> how do you install nvidia drivers.   it told me to log out of the x system there is no way to boot to the shell
[02:32] <bazhang> Storrgi1, that is way too little info to give an answer on.
[02:32] <Drk_Guy> AcBush, try reconfiguring usplash, sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash
[02:32] <zombiebox> one of the users at an old unix server I  use have lots of imapd runnig... is that considered normal....
[02:32] <AcBush> Drk_Guy: How do I get into terminal to run that command, if I can't even get to the Ubuntu Login Screen? Should I try to get in using Recovery Mode? I'm confused..
[02:32] <bazhang> zombiebox, how does this relate to ubuntu
[02:33] <Storrgi1> bazhang: its very weird, the information isnt lost... pushed into a buffer for sure, but I am curious as to why it takes a bit to read it all out
[02:33] <Storrgi1> it only occurs for about half a second when i come back to the machine
[02:33] <ice799> Hi - is there a reason why when you set the resolution for your screen in gnome that it doesn't set the resolution in xorg.conf?  I have a hotkey which used to work Fn-F8... Now I can't get it at all, which is down from the other day when I had it outputting, but it was wavy with refresh rate issues.
[02:33] <cornell> Thanks bazhang, genii and Lounge...  Disk C: properties says 6 gig used, I assume that 15 gig would be a sufficient size for winXP, it's not the primary OS (disk is 40 gig in size)
[02:33] <bazhang> Storrgi1, does sound rather normal then
[02:33] <Drk_Guy> AcBush: Recovery mode is your best bet, and, while you there: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf && sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg --plow
[02:33] <pucko-> eldustino, if you do ls -l /etc/alternatives|grep java  you see all the links java uses, a better way is to check them, and update them with update-alternatives if they are wrong
[02:33] <Storrgi1> bazhang: oh really?
[02:33] <shadedmist> am very confused about this website
[02:34] <shadedmist> can someone clear the light for me
[02:34] <zombiebox> bazhang: well not really...  more than the unix connection... but I guess it is too crowded here for gerneric unixquestions...
[02:34] <AcBush> Drk_Guy: Will do. Be back in a few...
[02:34] <Drk_Guy> q_a_z_steve: I've read it has something to do with Xrandr
[02:34] <bazhang> zombiebox, there is likely a unix channel here on freenode
[02:34] <q_a_z_steve> I have grandr installed
[02:34] <Drk_Guy> q_a_z_steve: Not so sure how to use it for that objective, though
[02:34] <bazhang> !irc | zombiebox check the last bit
[02:34] <Drk_Guy> q_a_z_steve: Great, Nvidia or ATi?
[02:35] <genii> cornell: If 6Gb used and you want to make it 15, also in XP make sure swap file size is less than the difference before resizing
[02:35] <q_a_z_steve> Drk_Guy: I can see where it should be, but I don't know how to use it, there are 5 positions in which I can place my default display... Nothing helps. Nvidia
[02:35] <dolphin_noel> ermm can someone tell to me why i dont have wireless in ubuntu whith same network and password ...  and in the other acountthat is admin i have wireless ... and i have wireless in the others acounts only if i run the admin acount first?!
[02:35] <zombiebox> ok
[02:35] <solexious> [Q] How can i let command line apps use there own colours? i.e. kismet rather than what i set as default
[02:35] <Lounge> Drk_Guy: I'd go for neither untill one of them goes open source - but thats just me
[02:35] <Drk_Guy> q_a_z_steve: Try using nvidia0s tool, it's under System -> Administration
[02:35] <cornell> If it's set for automatic sizing, is that ok, or should I just change it to ... say...  5 gig?
[02:36] <q_a_z_steve> System > Admin > What now?
[02:36] <Drk_Guy> Lounge: I dont care, i dont have "the RMS thingy" inside me
[02:36] <craigbass1976> I'm on a dapper box, getting ready to get up to at least feisty.  any advice?  I'm running update right now
[02:36] <Drk_Guy> q_a_z_steve: Look for some Nvidia tool, not sure of the name, my system is in spanish
[02:36] <eldustino> pucko:  Got it.  Thanks a million pucko
[02:37] <dolphin_noel> that why i hate this things on linux :x sometimes looks works anothers dont :x
[02:37] <Drk_Guy> craigbass1976: dont run anything else, it crapped an upgrade i did
[02:37] <dolphin_noel> dah :x
[02:37] <Lounge> Drk_Guy: then I guess nvidia since their restricted drivers seem to work better
[02:37] <Lounge> than ati
[02:37] <Drk_Guy> craigbass1976: And don't update if download fails
[02:37] <Drk_Guy> Lounge: ATi sucks in linux
[02:37] <Flannel> craigbass1976: yUo can upgrade (and should) straight from dapper to hardy.
[02:38] <Drk_Guy> Lounge: anyway, RMS must choose intel
[02:38] <Drk_Guy> XDDD
[02:38] <Flannel> craigbass1976: Edgy isn't supported anymore, and you can't get to Feisty except through edgy
[02:38] <Drk_Guy> No Flannel, it must be done in order
[02:38] <Lounge> ATI seems to want you to have their latest and greatest gpu(s) in order to have working drivers for linux :(
[02:38] <Flannel> Drk_Guy: You're right.  Dapper to Hardy
[02:39] <Drk_Guy> Flannel: As far as i've read, you CANT skip upgrades, Dapper, Edgy, Feisty, Gutsy, Hardy
[02:39] <Flannel> Drk_Guy: If you don't go dapper to hardy, you have to go dapper -> edgy, feisty, and edgy is EOL
[02:39] <Drk_Guy> :)
[02:39] <ramukmar> hey folks, the update manager says there are no updates although there should be...which means I'm still stuck on FF3 b5 for now. Any ideas what could be wrong?
[02:39] <Flannel> Drk_Guy: LTS to LTS upgrades are supported.  Dapper -> Hardy
[02:39] <Drk_Guy> Ah!
[02:39] <Drk_Guy> :)
[02:39] <Drk_Guy> Then go ahead
[02:39] <xxen> im still having problems with scp under nautilus. I get<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Nautilus cannot handle scp: locations.". now i have read, if have to enter sftp, but the server doesnt support sftp
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Lounge it is in their best interest NOT to go back and rewrite drivers for older chipsets
[02:40] <Drk_Guy> Can anyone take a screenshot of the default font configuration in ubuntu?
[02:40] <jrib> Drk_Guy: just create a new user
[02:40] <Drk_Guy> Jack_Sparrow: Still, it's unfai with it's clients
[02:40] <Drk_Guy> Ok jrib, thanks
[02:40] <Drk_Guy> Can i take that info in a file directly into my account?
[02:41] <Drk_Guy> jrib
[02:41] <craigbass1976> Flannel, so, I'm up a creek?
[02:41] <dolphin_noel> that why i hate this things on linux :x sometimes looks works anothers dont :x
[02:41] <dolphin_noel> ermm can someone tell to me why i dont have wireless in ubuntu whith same network and password ...  and in the other acountthat is admin i have wireless ... and i have wireless in the others acounts only if i run the admin acount first?!
[02:41] <dolphin_noel> :\
[02:41] <jrib> Drk_Guy: not really.  You'd just have to delete your custom preferences so the defaults are used again (no I don't know where, but I'd guess somewhere in gconf)
[02:41] <Drk_Guy> jrib: Where are the fontconfig's stored?
[02:41] <Flannel> craigbass1976: What? No.  You want to go from Dapper to Hardy, which is supported (and I'll be doing it sometime in the next month)
[02:41] <Flannel> !upgrade | craigbass1976
[02:41] <Drk_Guy> lol jrib
[02:41] <dolphin_noel> this is cruisel :X
[02:42] <jedimind> can anyone help me figure out why i cant seem to play any movies w/ compiz enabled? it just simply closes the movie player every time i try - but if i disable compiz it works just fine
[02:42] <gronne> I get updates all the time from the repositories. Are people working on linux now more than ever?
[02:42] <xxen> dolphin_noel,  and some works very dirty :\
[02:42] <craigbass1976> Flannel, is hardy better than gutsy?  I had trouble with that...
[02:42] <dolphin_noel> xxen this is unbealiver
[02:42] <Drk_Guy> gronne: Weird, last update was like a week ago
[02:42] <ramukmar> And I'm not getting any updates, sigh. The update manager says there are no updates although there should be...which means I'm still stuck on FF3 b5 for now. Any ideas what could be wrong?
[02:42] <Drk_Guy> gronne: (Major update)
[02:42] <Drk_Guy> gronne: Inlcuding kernel
[02:43] <LordOllie> ramukmar, are the correct repo's enabled?
[02:43] <Flannel> craigbass1976: Hardy is newer than gutsy.  And an LTS.  Newer isn't necessarily a good thing, although it's quickly approaching the stability of older releases from what Ive heard
[02:43] <Drk_Guy> gronne: Maybe you have too many repos, each repo publish it's own upgrades
[02:43] <Drk_Guy> lol Flannel, hardy's real stable
[02:43] <gronne> Drk_Guy: That aswell, but I primarily refered to development of software in general.
[02:43] <Shaba2> Guys
[02:43] <craigbass1976> Flannel, LTS ?
[02:43] <phaedral> no matter what I do I can't seem to get theme manager or emerald to see the themes I'm downloading; I'm running hardy
[02:44] <gronne> I do have too many rep's though... but I love my little updates too :)
[02:44] <clintchance> I have a script that has commands that need to be sudo but i dont want to have a password popup durring boot can i get arround that? (its being run at startup)
[02:44] <Shaba2> my version of xubuntu drops into a funny looking screen when I do not press a key for a while
[02:44] <Shaba2> its on a laptop
[02:44] <xxen> lol
[02:44] <Shaba2> is that screen saver or power management
[02:44] <Drk_Guy> gronne: They pack-up so many stuff
[02:44] <Flannel> !LTS | craigbass1976
[02:44] <pucko-> clintchance, you can set it suid root
[02:44] <hanasakiRemote>  who is running 64 bit and other than more addressable ram what's the reason to it
[02:44] <ramukmar> LordOllie: eek, I thought they were...wonder how it got unchecked
[02:44] <Shaba2> it looks like a bunch of lines
[02:44] <ramukmar> LordOllie: it was working fine till about a few weeks ago :/
[02:44] <clintchance> pucko- how
[02:44] <Flannel> craigbass1976: and as Drk_Guy just said, Hardy's real stable.
[02:44] <gronne> But I was generally curious, has the development on linux increased lately? Someone said they work on it harder nowadays? true?
[02:45] <timbomb> I am trying to install ubuntu via a USB. I have gotten it to the USB and everything, i am using the live USB. But when i go to install i get [Errno 5] Input/output error.

[02:46] <dolphin_noel> xxen will be it to we put it the wireless configuration running in some admin acount?! to force it unless there is some free ... wireless?!

[02:46] <Drk_Guy> Where are font configs are stored?
[02:47] <ramukmar> ok, now I have 226 mb of updates, heh. Silly me to overlook that
[02:47] <craigbass1976> Flannel, AND it came out on my birthday I just read...
[02:47] <craigbass1976> Flannel, must be good then
[02:47] <killux> hey guys, I am having a sound problem. My right speaker will randomly turn off sometimes. Does anyone know how I can fix this/
[02:47] <Flannel> craigbass1976: Its definately good.  Just only been out for two months now.  So, depending on your definition of stability...

[02:48] <craigbass1976> Flannel, well, it can't be any worse than windows...
[02:48] <jsquared> does Ubuntu have any capability for interactive boot mode?
[02:49] <spoonman> FAHTAW, there is a #ubuntu-mythtv channel
[02:49] <FAHTAW> thank you
[02:49] <spoonman> np
[02:50] <ice799> Hi - is there a reason why when you set the resolution for your screen in gnome that it doesn't set the resolution in xorg.conf?   That wiki page has all the info you need for upgrading from Dapper to Hardy
[02:50] <indio> Hi.
[02:50] <jsquared> more specifically does Ubuntu have anyway to replicate Fedora's "Press 'I' for interactive startup" mode?
[02:50] <indio> Can anyone recommend me a pop3/imap server?
[02:51] <craigbass1976> Flannel, looks rather easy...  the last upgrade I did was from dapper to feisty.  This is a client's box that hasn't been online in a while; she refuses to get DSL and I haven't set up a modem for it yet.
[02:51] <craigbass1976> indio, dovecot

[02:51] <craigbass1976> indio, I just set it up on centos and it was pretty simple
[02:51] <crusher> if there is one how can I find it
[02:51] <Flannel> craigbass1976: You went straight from dapper to Feisty?  That mustve been "fun"
[02:51] <craigbass1976> bbto, what do you need?
[02:51] <craigbass1976> Flannel, as I remember, it wasn't too bad
[02:52] <craigbass1976> Flannel, but I had to stop at edgy on the way
[02:52] <Flannel> craigbass1976: Ah.  Not straight from dapper to feisty.  Good.  thats the proper method
[02:52] <bakersfieldboy> has enyone got the lx 3000 working on ubuntu ?
[02:52] <genii> crusher: There is not. So it would be difficult to find. Wine is the compatability layer to run some windows applications under linux.
[02:52] <caoqingshan> hardy can't restart on my laptop?
[02:52] <crusher> genii  thanks for clearing that up
[02:52] <craigbass1976> bbto, hello?
[02:53]  * craigbass1976 pokes bbto
[02:53] <genii> crusher: np
[02:53] <Flannel> craigbass1976: Well, you'll need to first get Dapper up to date, and then that'll allow you to upgrade to Hardy.  You can do the hardy thing with an alternate CD, but dapper's updates... you might have to make yourself (see AptOnCD if you have another box that does have internets)
[02:53] <crusher> anyone know of a program called cinelerra
[02:53] <crusher> or something like that
[02:53] <caoqingshan> anyone can help me? Thanks
[02:53] <crusher> I am looking for a  video editing program
[02:53] <craigbass1976> Flannel, I think dappers update just finished
[02:53] <ddonky> i tried running it from a terminal here's the paste http://paste.ubuntu.com/23229/
[02:53] <bbto> craig: have a list box from table B in Form A need to see (in a text box) the corresponding B record. how?
[02:54] <crusher> I have avidemux but that does not let me edit multiple videos and put them on 1 dvd
[02:55] <craigbass1976> bbto, ahh, sorry.  can't help you then.  I can hook it up to mysql, but then I write php stuff to update/manage the database afterward.  or bash.
[02:55] <Mecha25> is there a xubuntu channel?
[02:55] <craigbass1976> Mecha25, I imagine
[02:55] <Pici> Mecha25: #xubuntu
[02:55] <crusher> also anyone know of a editing program that will allow me to edit .mov files
[02:55] <killux> anyone know how I can get my one speaker to work? It turns off randomly
[02:55] <Mecha25> cool thanks.
[02:55] <bbto> thanks
[02:55] <bbto> Hi, need some help with OObase. Any?
[02:55] <craigbass1976> killux, it's not the physical hookup?  loose wire inside, smooshed wire somewhere along its length?
[02:56] <ShadowKnight> Hello all.
[02:56] <killux> craigbass1976: I don't think so, it works fine in windows
[02:57] <zdn> anyone with experience running cs 1.6 under WINE?
[02:57] <Pici> zdn: Try #winehq
[02:57] <wild_> hey how do you manualy install nvidia-glx-new ?
[02:57] <zdn> ty ty
[02:58] <Prose> anyone have an opinion on the best app to host a mail server?
[02:58] <crusher> anyone know where I can find a cinelerra download
[02:58] <craigbass1976> Prose, postfix
[02:59] <Prose> craigbass1976: thanks, it gives me a trail :)
[02:59] <|Juan|> im running compiz 0.7.4 under hardy, just upgraded to nvidia 173.14.05 and sometimes the window borders get glitched like this http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/3076/pantallazotn6.jpg. any clues?
[02:59] <craigbass1976> Prose, and I may get shot, but I don't really like ubuntu for servers.  It's only personal though, I'm used to complete CLI in something like solaris or RH
[03:00] <spoon_man> but the server version of ubuntu is all CLI
[03:00] <spoon_man> I thought
[03:00] <tannji> I just installed Java plugin and the user agreement is in my terminal, I cant clear it, or accept it... what should I be doing?
[03:00] <Prose> craigbass1976: bah, I'm not advanced enough to work on solaris or even know what CLI means
[03:00] <craigbass1976> Prose, you need a pop3 server too. dovecot is what I used.  You have BIND setup already?
[03:01] <wild_> hey how do you manualy install nvidia-glx-new ?
[03:01] <Prose> craigbass1976: I've nothing setup, the only things server-like I got working is Samba and Appache
[03:02] <Prose> craigbass1976: so I may have to learn with the flow while configuring postfix
[03:02] <craigbass1976> Prose, is this behind a firewall?
[03:02] <perlsyntax> hi
[03:02] <Prose> craigbass1976: yeah but I will just forward through the router and arrange iptables properly
[03:02] <indio> Is there a standard package for pop3/imap server such as there is sendmail for smtp?
[03:02] <perlsyntax> i got ubunu but it take for ever to boot up on the cd that odd?
[03:03] <Prose> perlsyntax: on the LivecD?
[03:03] <craigbass1976> Prose, shoot me an email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and I can help you along the way
[03:03] <perlsyntax> yes
[03:03] <Sylphid|mobile> indio, dovecot
[03:03] <indio> Thanks.
[03:03] <Prose> perlsyntax: yeah it's pretty normal for the livecd to takel onger than usual to boot
[03:03] <|Juan|> im running compiz 0.7.4 under hardy, just upgraded to nvidia 173.14.05 and sometimes the window borders get glitched like this http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/3076/pantallazotn6.jpg. any clues?
[03:04] <Prose> perlsyntax: Ive seen it on every system I used the liveCD on (so I've seen it on like 10 systems, from weak to brand new)
[03:05] <perlsyntax> so that not odd then
[03:05] <phaedral> I still can't get emerald or system->preferences->appearance to admit I've got themes to install.  They simply aren't visible from the "install/browse" dialog, and drag and drop gets a "not a valid theme" message
[03:05] <phaedral> help?
[03:05] <perlsyntax> Prose, i thought it was my latop
[03:06] <craigbass1976> gotta go.  reboot
[03:06] <Prose> perlsyntax: happily, no
[03:06] <perlsyntax> i had no prob oon my desktop
[03:07] <spoon_man> phaedral, where are you downloading these themes from?
[03:07] <killux> if I compile alsa from source, will it automatically replace ubuntu's alsa built-in drivers and stuff
[03:07] <the7thmagus> I'm having trouble getting my mic to work in hardy heron. I enabled 'microphone' and 'capture' in Volume control (ALSA mixer), and I can hear mic input through the speakers directly. when I speak and have the 'vumeter' open I can see the bar move. but both Audacity and Sound Recorder give errors saying my input settings are wrong
[03:08] <Storrgi1> When i try to install from bootable disk i see "197.519901 ata5.01 revalidation failed (errno=-5)"
[03:08] <|Juan|> im running compiz 0.7.4 under hardy, just upgraded to nvidia 173.14.05 with envyng and sometimes the window borders get glitched like this http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/3076/pantallazotn6.jpg. any clues?
[03:09] <Prose> perlsyntax: according to wiki, acd read at  52x transfers stuff at around 7.8 MB/s so the livecd has to load all kinds of stuff in your ram at that slow speed
[03:10] <perlsyntax> fedora was not like this
[03:10] <Prose> afaik
[03:11] <Prose> perlsyntax: :maybe it was on a DVD ? (dvds go to 21MB/s)
[03:11] <Prose> considering the cd/dvd read speed is the bottleneck
[03:12] <driller> hello

[03:12] <wild_> hey how do you manualy install nvidia-glx-new ?
[03:12] <lanuser> Is there a command to determine if a USB port is set at 2.0 speeds?
[03:13] <unavailable> wild_ did you have problems with the proprietary drivers?
[03:13] <spoon_man> the7thmagus, is alsamixer set to your sound card? sometimes it's not if you have both onboard sound and a separate sound care
[03:13] <spoon_man> *sound card
[03:13] <wild_> the laptop im trying to install it to cant connect to the net
[03:13] <wild_> so i had to download them from another computer
[03:13] <driller> does sis support 3d acceleration on ubuntu?
[03:13] <dru> hello .. please help .. there is an annoying beeping noise every 3 seconds comming from my speakers .. if i mute the speakers they stop .. wtf is it?
[03:14] <lanuser> wild_: download it from here http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html
[03:14] <unavailable> wild_ is that problem because you cant get the network drivers working?  or because you cant physically connect?
[03:14] <wild_> i cant physically connect
[03:14] <unavailable> do what lanuser said
[03:14] <ramukmar> dru: try muting pc speaker in the volume control?
[03:14] <Storrgi1> when i boot from live CD i get "BusyBox v1.1.3 Built-in Shell
[03:14] <Storrgi1> what should i do?
[03:14] <wild_> damn
[03:14] <wild_> witch one do i get
[03:14] <ramukmar> dru: every 3 secs is strange though
[03:15] <dru> ramukmar: what? i still want to hear ..
[03:15] <lanuser> wild_ you're connected now, get it from that computer and transfer it on a USB drive
[03:15] <perlsyntax> i got it install on my laptop now.
[03:15] <perlsyntax> :D
[03:15] <wild_> http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_173.14.09.html
[03:15] <wild_> this one?
[03:15] <ramukmar> dru: the beeps usually come from the internal pc speaker...you should still hear music etc, even with that muted
[03:15] <unavailable> i would guess
[03:15] <lanuser> driller: I would imagine not
[03:15] <solexious> [Q] Any one knoe what I need to install and use a serial GSM Modem?
[03:16] <lastelement0> hey all. i just installed steam in wine and downloaded CS:S yet when i try to start CS:S. wine just crashes. what should i do?
[03:16] <Storrgi1> When I boot from disk I get "BusyBox v1.1.3 Built-in Shell" what should I do about this?
[03:16] <WhoNeedszzz> Anyone here a vm guru? I'm trying to get wifi working in virtualbox.

[03:17] <ramukmar> dru: not pcm...it should be "pc speaker"
[03:17] <spoon_man> I don't think wifi can be virtualized, WhoNeedszzz
[03:17] <dru> in the volume control .. all i see is master, pcm, front, frontling, front mic
[03:18] <ramukmar> dru: try changing the device if you can't find it
[03:18] <ramukmar> dru: file->change device
[03:18] <unavailable> storrgi1 try the alternate cd
[03:18] <WhoNeedszzz> spoon_man: i think it is possible by bridging the connection. i saw somewhere that you can do it by bridging. But i don't how to do that
[03:18] <|Juan|> im running compiz 0.7.4 under hardy, just upgraded to nvidia 173.14.05 with envyng and sometimes the window borders get glitched like this http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/3076/pantallazotn6.jpg. any clues?
[03:18] <pwnedulongtime> anyone tell me the default third party repositories in Hardy?
[03:18] <lastelement0> hey all. i just installed steam in wine and downloaded CS:S yet when i try to start CS:S. wine just crashes. what should i do?
[03:18] <ramukmar> dru: or go to preferences and enable it
[03:18] <dru> ramukmar: nothing
[03:19] <pwnedulongtime> i accidentally deleted one
[03:19] <bazhang> pwnedulongtime, proposed or backports
[03:19] <jsquared> does Ubuntu have any capability for interactive boot mode, like Fedora's?
[03:19] <pwnedulongtime> on the rhird party software tab
[03:19] <bazhang> pwnedulongtime, unless you mean commercial ones (canonical partners)
[03:19] <unavailable> |juan| thats better than my glich, at least you have window borders
[03:19] <yoyone1> jsquared: like what
[03:19] <pwnedulongtime> got canonical partners
[03:19] <|Juan|> unavailable, no borders can be fixed
[03:19] <pwnedulongtime> there's one more
[03:19] <unavailable> i know
[03:20] <pwnedulongtime> the one i deleted
[03:20] <perlsyntax> not it just froze the install
[03:20] <crusher> anyone know how to open/install cinelerra
[03:20] <unavailable> but its annoying |juan|
[03:20] <WhoNeedszzz> |Juan|: yeah it is a bug in compiz, install fusion-icon and right click on it and go to reload window manager
[03:20] <dru> ramukmar: is there anyway to backup 2tb of stuff and switch back to windows?
[03:20] <jsquared> yoyone1: if you push "I" during a Fedora startup, you can basically push "y/n" to decide whether to load each service
[03:20] <jsquared> Windows has a similar feature
[03:20] <crusher> i have downloaded it but I cannot get it to install
[03:20] <|Juan|> WhoNeedszzz, that doesnt help
[03:20] <jsquared> alternatively, anything else that would let me pause the boot would be good too
[03:20] <WhoNeedszzz> |Juan|: you don't have fusion icon installed...
[03:20] <Ashfire908> I need help getting Apache to use php on .php pages.
[03:20] <bazhang> jsquared, fedora?
[03:20] <pwnedulongtime> anyone?

[03:21] <|Juan|> WhoNeedszzz, i do. and i did that already.
[03:21] <unavailable> whoneedszzz or he doesnt have it on
[03:21] <WhoNeedszzz> |Juan|: oh nvm u do
[03:21] <yoyone1> jsquared: no, as far as I know  only redhat based distros do that, what are you trying to do
[03:21] <bazhang> jsquared, this is ubuntu support
[03:21] <Storrgi1> unavailable: what alternative CD?
[03:21] <WhoNeedszzz> |Juan|: ok go to select window manager and click compiz
[03:21] <arc_shmoo> it there a way to share folders over a network without making them visable to everyone else on the network?
[03:21] <pwnedulongtime> no one?
[03:21] <jsquared> bazhang: I understand that, obviously. I'm making a comparison for illustrative purposes
[03:21] <pwnedulongtime> please?
[03:21] <unavailable> storrgi1 when you go to download ubuntu, check the box under the download button
[03:21] <spoon_man> WhoNeedszzz, looks like your answer is in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[03:22] <jsquared> yoyone1: well, primarily, pause the boot process so that I can see what's going on

[03:22] <Storrgi1> installer*
[03:23] <|Juan|> i did, it reloaded, didnt fix anything
[03:23] <yoyone1> jsquared: most people want to speed it up, and you are trying to slow it down
[03:23] <tbearden> hi all, any idea why ndiswraper won't work on a broadcom unless I load and unload ssb first?
[03:23] <tech0007> Storrgi1: then use the livecd
[03:23] <ericjung> would i find firefox 2.x in Add/Remove applications? I only see Firefox 3.
