[03:06] <ubunturocks117> any cool ubuntu games you could recommend?
[03:07] <Slaj_R> Anyone available to help troubleshoot wireless networking?
[03:07] <Jack_Sparrow> theFATMAN Please try this in a terminal..  sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cp /etc/fstab ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && sudo fdisk -l >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /home/$USER/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt | pastebinit  (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[03:07] <chmac> croddy: :) I was just looking in synaptic for a configuration manager :)
[03:07] <theFATMAN> does anyone know what to burn from a recovery partition to fix the MBR?
[03:07] <bazhang> !games | ubunturocks117
[03:07] <david_> I guess no one knows how to get my subwoofer working
[03:07] <lgc> Flannel, the login screen config just thrashed my system (and I didn't find the woodstick sound, anyway).
[03:07] <DJ_Cranky> tmapj and it isnt licensed/official dvd compliant copyright blah blah blah- the digital media millenium thing blocks it
[03:07] <SeaPhor> flyingsquirrel32, be sure to type my full name in or i may not see your post and tab works :-)
[03:07] <Scifiguy951> =''(((((((
[03:07] <ubunturocks117> thanks bazhang
[03:07] <theFATMAN> jack_sparrow:thank you, just a sec
[03:07] <SeaPhor> !tab | flyingsquirrel32
[03:07] <Dewi> what's the name of the executable for Restricted Devices Manager?
[03:07] <Flannel> lgc: Its under accessibility, theres only three things in that screen, and two of them are disabled.
[03:07] <dobson> Slaj_R: I can try to help you
[03:07] <tmapj> so its illegal to play a dvd i paid for on my computer?
[03:07] <Jack_Sparrow> theFATMAN Does the livecd give you an option to boot the first hard drive.. that might also let you back in..
[03:07] <flyingsquirrel32> manuel_: ubottu es un robot. no es una persona de verdad.
[03:07] <bazhang> tmapj, not to worry about
[03:07] <croddy> Dewi, jockey-gtk
[03:08] <silverpower> tmapj: Basically, yup.
[03:08] <Steve-cal> silverpower: lspci -vv doesn't give any latency value for my sound card, but has a latency value for my monitor and other devices.
[03:08] <DJ_Cranky> tmapj no but the same program can be used to rip the dvd and make copies or sell or distribute it illegally
[03:08] <tmapj> bazhang, why?
[03:08] <lgc> Flannel, what would be the whole path to it?
[03:08] <Dewi> croddy: oh, that thing just says I have none installed. How would I install some?
[03:08] <Dewi> croddy: ie nvidia
[03:08] <Flannel> lgc: I have no idea
[03:08] <tmapj> well im not planning on copying and distributing it
[03:08] <flyingsquirrel32> SeaPhor: Cool, I never knew that!
[03:08] <silverpower> Steve-cal: Okay, lemme check and see. Like I said, it's been a while.
[03:08] <Dewi> tmapj: welcome to US law
[03:08] <DJ_Cranky> tmapj try telling the government that
[03:08] <j4w4> does ubuntu let you cut'n'paste launcher files or do I have to use terminal commands?
[03:08] <SeaPhor> flyingsquirrel32, :-)
[03:09] <Dewi> tmapj: you are only allowed to play digital media on devices approved by the cartel
[03:09] <`Kermudge> Question using Xchat alas can't seem to get the whois command to work.  :(
[03:09] <bazhang> Dewi, getting offtopic
[03:09] <DJ_Cranky> Dewi tmapj yeah thats what i meant by official dvd thing
[03:09] <theFATMAN> jack_sparrow:it says it cant find the package
[03:09] <croddy> Dewi, you'll need to check and make sure that the restricted repos (universe?) are enabled in your apt sources config, and it should recommend the nvidia driver to you. if it doesn't, in my experience, that means your hardware is not recognized by the restricted drivers manager and you'll need to do it manually
[03:09] <edward_> my pidgin has one question. it said: not  read Sock data!无法读取套接字

[03:10] <theFATMAN> jack_sparrow:the live CD does not
[03:10] <DJ_Cranky> bye everyone, nice to chat!
[03:10] <silverpower> Steve-cal: could you pastebin your lspci -vv output?
[03:10] <tmapj> where can i find information about this new law?
[03:10] <crackerjackz> edward why is it in chinese

[03:10] <tmapj> ok thanks
[03:10] <Dewi> croddy: right... I've got universe/multiverse... if jockey isn't prompting me it hasn't worked?
[03:10] <edward_> beacuse i am chinese
[03:11] <bazhang> DJ_Cranky, please take this to offtopic
[03:11] <dobson> sorry I hate the chat client.. :(
[03:11] <Xcell> really
[03:11] <crackerjackz> edward_, ahhhhh that makes sense :-P
[03:11] <croddy> Dewi in my experience if jockey or restricted-manager does not offer the driver to you then your hardware is probably too recent (or possibly too old) although you can try installing the nvidia stuff anyway
[03:11] <DJ_Cranky> bazhang sorry, will do if convo continues
[03:11] <dobson> xcell ?
[03:11] <crackerjackz> so what does 无法读取套接字 mean?
[03:11] <Xcell> someone else dobson
[03:11] <dobson> K
[03:12] <silverpower> Steve-cal: Mine displays it, but this is an nForce1 board. It also displays the latency as 0ms. >_<
[03:12] <theFATMAN> jack_sparrow?
[03:12] <edward_> it's not read Socks
[03:12] <Steve-cal> silverpower: http://pastebin.com/d58dbffc5   look near the very bottom for my sound card.
[03:12] <Jack_Sparrow> theFATMAN I never recommend wubi... I think you can save your windows install by installing grub even if it cant find windows, or just do a regular install without wubi and you should get windows back
[03:12] <chmac> croddy: Thanks, works like a charm :)
[03:12] <dobson> Which guy was asking for wireless networking help?
[03:12] <Dewi> croddy: actually I get a bunch of 'modinfo' warnings when I launch jockey - there jsut aren't any nvidia files in my /lib/modules/*-generic/volatile
[03:12] <`Kermudge> bazhang you there?
[03:12] <bazhang> edward_, /join #ubuntu-cn
[03:12] <Dewi> croddy: I'm on a live cd....
[03:12] <crackerjackz> edward_ run pidgin from a terminal window
[03:12] <bazhang> `Kermudge, :)
[03:12] <crackerjackz> and then paste the output
[03:12] <Jack_Sparrow> theFATMAN even if it cant find ubuntu is what I meant
[03:12] <theFATMAN> ummmm...what exactly is wubi?
[03:12] <croddy> Dewi, i don't know how to set up nvidia drivers on the live CD.
[03:12] <dobson> Jack_Sparrow: you are right although it may have to be configured manually with grub.
[03:12] <`Kermudge> Need some more help bazhang.   Can't get the Whois command to work.  :(
[03:12] <Bodsda> theFATMAN, wubi installs ubuntu as aprogram in windows
[03:12] <Bodsda> !wubi
[03:13] <Jack_Sparrow> theFATMAN I can link you a faq later.
[03:13] <theFATMAN> ohhh
[03:13] <bazhang> `Kermudge, like this /whois
[03:13] <`Kermudge> Yup like that.
[03:13] <Dewi> anyone know what impact using WUBI might have on the NTFS journal?
[03:13] <theFATMAN> yes, please do
[03:13] <bazhang> Dewi, none
[03:13] <theFATMAN> i have gotten -0- support from M$
[03:13] <`Kermudge> does not do squat when I use it.
[03:13] <flyingsquirrel32> SeaPhor: Not in the list. Should I move on to ndiswrapper?
[03:13] <Dewi> bazhang: can it avoid doing metadata writes because it's just writing sections within one big monolithic file?
[03:14] <edward_> let me try again
[03:14] <crackerjackz> edward_,  do you know how to use wgetpaste?
[03:14] <bazhang> `Kermudge, just right click someone's name then and ask for who is from xchat
[03:14] <dobson> `Kermudge: are you talking about wubi?
[03:14] <Jack_Sparrow> theFATMAN In your position, I would unplug my external drive, boot livecd, shrink my primary drive windows partition and let ubuntu install to that drive
[03:14] <edward_> what is it?
[03:14] <theFATMAN> ok, how do i mount a partiton?
[03:14] <Jack_Sparrow> theFATMAN I need to get to dinner
[03:14] <croddy> with great gusto
[03:14] <theFATMAN> ok
[03:14] <crackerjackz> whats the command for edward to install wgetpaste?
[03:14] <edward_> wait one minutes.  i google
[03:14] <theFATMAN> i understand
[03:14] <crackerjackz> im not sure what it is for ubuntu
[03:14] <`Kermudge> Again nothing bazhang.
[03:14] <Jack_Sparrow> theFATMAN create mount point and mount the drive to that point
[03:14] <DjDoNy> hi
[03:15] <theFATMAN> how to link?
[03:15] <SeaPhor> flyingsquirrel32, tell me your card again, i'll look, aam open a terminal and run lshw -C network and pastebin that while i look
[03:15] <AliP> Mkay, I just got ubuntu to work, now im trying to access my secondary hard drives, they all give me the same message, "cannot mount volume", any idea whats wrong?
[03:15] <`Kermudge> won't even respond to a /who command either.

[03:18] <dobson> thanks bazhang
[03:18] <crackerjackz> is it apt-get wgetpaste ?\
[03:18] <bazhang> `Kermudge, aye :)
[03:18] <yaman> shree_: i am having the same status:in use   enabled=embty checkbox when i click on it again it tells me your hardware will not work without the firmware (brodcom b43 wireless driver)
[03:18] <`Kermudge> Again thanks much.
[03:18] <croddy> crackerjackz, there is no wgetpaste in ubuntu as far as i can tell. what does it do?
[03:18] <shree_> yaman: then you have not completed the installation
[03:18] <crackerjackz> croddy there is
[03:18] <yaman> shree_:in the top of the window there is no proprietary drivers are in use on this system
[03:18] <Nissan_350Z> Any one know what i can do about WINE? Its not working..
[03:18] <Steve-cal> silverpower: OK, seriously though, do you have any idea where I would start as far as tweaking latency values? Maybe it would have to involve a kernel patch I imagine.
[03:19] <streakz> i just installed ubuntu onto my laptop Lenovo 3000 N100 and the keyboard layout is incorrect any ideas?
[03:19] <bazhang> pastebinit crackerjackz
[03:19] <crackerjackz> well
[03:19] <croddy> crackerjackz, what does it do
[03:19] <crackerjackz> i mean not wgetpaste
[03:19] <zenxyz> anyone alive in here?
[03:19] <crackerjackz> but i know there is something like it
[03:19] <croddy> WHAT DOES IT DO
[03:19] <yaman> shree_: i think some thing wrong when installing the driver but how can i reinstall it or remove this problem ?
[03:19] <SeaPhor> flyingsquirrel32, you there?
[03:19] <crackerjackz> it allows you to paste stuff from your terminal window to rafb.net
[03:19] <silverpower> Steve-cal: Nah, it's a tool included with pcitools.
[03:19] <shree_> yaman:you seem to be stopping the installation halfway through
[03:19] <croddy> you could have pasted it by now...
[03:19] <crackerjackz> or like if something errors out and it gives you a log file to check you could type like
[03:19] <`Kermudge> aye sailor response bazhang?
[03:19] <bazhang> pastebinit oy crackerjackz
[03:19] <flyingsquirrel32> yeah, testing to see if ndiswrapper works

[03:26] <crackerjackz> zenxyz, same drive
[03:26] <crackerjackz> partition it
[03:26] <zenxyz> thx all;
[03:26] <ggrrr> but it wont use ssh?
[03:27] <ggrrr> how can i do it?
[03:27] <vitas> hey guys, first time ubuntu install on a gateway laptop, running across issues finding drivers though, looked on gateways website. all i can kind for my model are win drivers. any suggestions?
[03:27] <tmapj> can anyone tell me how to proxy the terminal?
[03:27] <zenxyz> 80 GB is enough for a beginner for ubuntu ?
[03:27] <crackerjackz> zenxyz, your second drive is hooked up as a slave right?
[03:27] <edward_> why ? shut down my computer?
[03:27] <bazhang> zenxyz, more than enough
[03:27] <croddy> zenxyz, 80 GB is fine to start out
[03:27] <dijix> Like my little brother when we were kids... He'd ask if he could ask me a question.. I'd say, "You just did."....   "Can I ask you two questions?"   lol
[03:27] <Bodsda> !ndiswrapper | vitas
[03:27] <crackerjackz> zenxyz, yeah
[03:27] <zenxyz> yeah second drive is a slave
[03:27] <crackerjackz> edward_, what are you talking about
[03:27] <bazhang> !cn | edward_
[03:27] <dobson> Well thanks for the link, but I am back to square one. I cannot get the dvd player to work. The closest I have come is playing an indivdual video file through VLC, but very broken and pixelated. Any other help out that. ??
[03:27] <zenxyz> ok; well I will probably go with that then;  thx
[03:27] <tmapj> can anyone tell me how to proxy the terminal?
[03:28] <croddy> tmapj, can you be more precise with what you mean by "to proxy"
[03:28] <SeaPhor> flyingsquirrel32, ok, this may take some doing and the room is full, can you join me on #SeaPhor and i'll help you as much as i can?
[03:28] <zenxyz> going to partition my data drive
[03:28] <crackerjackz> zenxyz, is your second drive set up as a slave
[03:28] <zenxyz> err i mean my windows drive
[03:28] <bazhang> no slave in linux
[03:28] <tmapj> i want the terminal to download through the tor proxy
[03:28] <zenxyz> and install ubuntu.....
[03:28] <croddy> slavery was abolished in the P1 days i though
[03:28] <lovre> hi all. I was wondering if you know what channel i should ask in about image processing algorithms?
[03:28] <crackerjackz> zenxyz, use your second drive for storage
[03:28] <vitas> ok how do i pull up the cmd line for ubuntu?
[03:28] <zenxyz> i had it installed and deleted it............ i guess it's good practice....
[03:28] <crackerjackz> if you plan on sharing between that drive between linux and windows
[03:29] <crackerjackz> then make it a fat32
[03:29] <croddy> vitas, Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal

[03:29] <rick_> how do u ge
[03:29] <montpelie> any suggestion???
[03:29] <croddy> tmapj, the terminal only displays text. what tools do you use in the terminal that you'd like to connect through tor?
[03:30] <zenxyz> ok i could copy from ntfs to ext3 no problem, but never tried the other way
[03:30] <bazhang> montpelie, apt-get not apt-file
[03:30] <rick_> how d u get the flames on ubuntu ultimate edition 1.7
[03:30] <croddy> bazhang, apt-file exists
[03:30] <montpelie> nope
[03:30] <montpelie> apt-file
[03:30] <crackerjackz> you cant access ext3 from with in windows if thats what your asking
[03:30] <tmapj> when the terminal downloads software, i want it done through a proxy
[03:30] <bazhang> rick_, ubuntu ultimate not supported here
[03:30] <ivan_> holaaaa
[03:30] <Dillizar> where i can find a old ubuntu?
[03:30] <zenxyz> no i am interested in writing to ntfs from linux
[03:30] <croddy> crackerjackz, explore2fs (and others), please be sure you know what you're saying before you say it
[03:30] <Flannel> Dillizar: What version?
[03:30] <ivan_> soy propietario de un cybercafe, y deseo hacer la emigracion
[03:30] <`Kermudge> zenxyz while in windows pop in the Unbutu cd there is a new install method that allows you to install it that way works great.
[03:30] <bazhang> !en | ivan_
[03:31] <croddy> !es
[03:31] <Dillizar> Flannel: for a my laptop 200mhz
[03:31] <crackerjackz> croddy i said it was possible i was just saying i havent been able to get good NTFS support
[03:31] <zenxyz> kermudge I want the full experience.... i have ubuntu in vmware, but want to dual boot
[03:31] <tmapj> hello?
[03:31] <tmapj> hello?
[03:31] <`Kermudge> Oh ok zenxyz.

[03:31] <zenxyz> peace out all and thx;
[03:31] <rick_> bazhang were will it be
[03:31] <dijix> Is there an easy way to open a Terminal in a specific directory?  Ideally something like right-clicking on a folder in Nautilus and selecting a non-existent "Open in Terminal" - that's the behavior I'm looking for
[03:31] <Dillizar> !mkd
[03:31] <bazhang> rick_, not here
[03:32] <montpelie> apt-file update won't work
[03:32] <tmapj> i want the terminal to download through the tor proxy. can anyone help me?
[03:32] <Dillizar> Flannel: what is the first version
[03:32] <croddy> dijix, nautilus-open-terminal
[03:32] <croddy> montpelie, is there any useful error output?
[03:33] <Flannel> Dillizar: Warty, although I'm not sure older is better.  You may want to pick a distro specially designed for older/slower hardware, DeliLinux is one example of such a distro
[03:33] <croddy> tmapj, your question makes little sense. what do you run in the terminal that you want to connect through tor?
[03:33] <tmapj> croddy, WHEN THE TERMINAL DOWNLOADS STUFF
[03:33] <bazhang> tmapj, dont shout
[03:33] <tmapj> sorry
[03:33] <bazhang> tmapj, what stuff
[03:33] <croddy> tmapj, for the last time: the terminal downloads nothing. if you are running tools in the terminal, they might use the HTTP_PROXY environment variable.
[03:34] <tmapj> bazhang,  like software
[03:34] <montpelie> sure, hold on
[03:34] <montpelie> oceanvessel@oceangoingvessel-TPC:~$ sudo apt-file update

[03:34] <croddy> it was a yes or no question
[03:34] <montpelie> pastebin didnt work, just to let u guys know
[03:34] <tmapj> because they told me the software for playing DVD's is illegal
[03:34] <Xcell> have a good day folks
[03:34] <bazhang> tmapj, oh that; never mind
[03:35] <izinucs> montpelie, there's another way with pastebinit from the command line
[03:35] <croddy> nobody cares whether you download libdvdcss2 tmapj
[03:35] <tmapj> bazhang,  what nevermind?
[03:35] <montpelie> oh which one is it izinucs??
[03:35] <bazhang> tmapj, just download it as millions of others do
[03:35] <bpat1434> When I right-click on the menu, and select "Edit Menus" nothing happens.  Same as when I go to System -> Preferences -> main Menu.  Any ideas why?
[03:35]  * croddy did!
[03:35] <tmapj> ok
[03:35] <crackerjackz> brb i gotta get on my other box this wifi driver is too flakey im getting every thing like 5 minutes delayed
[03:35] <tmapj> thnx
[03:35] <dobson> control +p
[03:35] <shree_> yaman: BTW do you know your IP address
[03:35] <croddy> bpat1434, alacarte takes a bit of time to start up even on fast hardware -- not sure why
[03:36] <bpat1434> croddy: I give it like 20 minutes
[03:36] <bpat1434> never taken that long
[03:36] <croddy> that would be too long to wait
[03:36] <izinucs> montpelie, install pastbinit then you can cat <filename> | pastebinit.... it will return an address..
[03:36] <croddy> bpat1434, run alacarte from a terminal and see if there is any useful output
[03:36] <croddy> (but don't paste more than a line or two in here!)
[03:36] <izinucs> montpelie, it's also a different pastbin service.. so the link is a little different.. smaller
[03:36] <afallenhope> hey.. how do I remove an item from the menu? for some reason I have two "Services"
[03:36] <Dillizar> Flannel: lol 10x  there is "Download installation floppy disks".
[03:36] <montpelie> oh ok thanks for the info izinucs
[03:36] <afallenhope> like.. folders.
[03:36] <montpelie> kk
[03:36] <croddy> afallenhope, use alacarte
[03:36] <bpat1434> croddy: permission denied?
[03:37] <redwhitewaldo> I have a desktop PC connected to (wired) cable modem. I would like to share my internet connection with another person in the house.  He has a laptop and he would like to do wireless internet.  I have a Dell Wireless Broadband 2350 Router. As for me, I would like to continue using Wired internet. How do I go about setting up the router?
[03:37] <afallenhope> croddy: I have... and I can't remove it
[03:37] <redwhitewaldo> I have tried doing a physical "rewiring" (the end of cable that went to the back of my computer now goes to the Internet port on the wireless router. Then, with another cable, I connect the back of my computer to "LAN1" at the back of the wireless router) but that doesn't work). Thanks
[03:37] <croddy> bpat1434, i'm out of ideas, sorry
[03:37] <dobson> Can someone please help me with my DVD playback problem? I have tried the links given in here and under support and on the Totum page, and wiki and still get the "you do not have the plugin" for this movie.
[03:38] <afallenhope> croddy: I simply want to remove one item
[03:38] <afallenhope> an empty folder that says "services"
[03:38] <croddy> afallenhope, i have not experienced any flakiness with alacarte so i am at a loss to explain the behavior you are describing, sorry
[03:38] <yaman> shree_: hello
[03:38] <bpat1434> croddy:
[03:39] <dobson> BTW, I installed VLC player and even it doesn't work correctly, barely loads before crashing when I run the dvd
[03:39] <bpat1434> croddy: http://paste2.org/p/29682
[03:39] <afallenhope> croddy: I used the menu editor.... I made a new menu...named "Services" and "Security" I have two folders named Services now
[03:39] <afallenhope>  want to remove the empty one
[03:39] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, that should have worked.. once connected can you see the rom of the router .. usually on <IP_ADDRESS> or <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:39] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: thanks for your reply. How do i know if i can see rom?
[03:39] <croddy> bpat1434, try 'chown -R brett:brett /home/brett/.config/menus/applications.menu' and run it again. looks like someone else might own your menus
[03:40] <russ> Hello Flannel a couple of days ago you referred me to APTonCD and I'd like to ask you some follow-up questions
[03:40] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, type in both of the address i just gave you and see what pops up.
[03:40] <croddy> (might want to go a bit higher up than just the one file though)
[03:40] <montpelie> hey izinicus
[03:40] <montpelie> already setup pastebinit
[03:40] <montpelie> and catted the file in question
[03:40] <yaman> shree_: ?!!?!
[03:40] <redwhitewaldo> ok. I'll have to re-wire right now, and get the router as the middleman again. Because, currently, the router is out of the loop as I'm online.
[03:40] <redwhitewaldo> brb
[03:40] <montpelie> it came up with pastebin.com
[03:41] <bpat1434> croddy:
[03:41] <izinucs> montpelie, and /<link number>?
[03:41] <afallenhope> Anyone else know? I simply want to remove ONE item from the menu
[03:41] <montpelie> nope
[03:41] <bpat1434> croddy:  Was a bad permission on settings.menu and applications.menu
[03:41] <bpat1434> thanks for the suggestion
[03:41] <croddy> cool
[03:41] <montpelie> am I missing something???
[03:42] <izinucs> montpelie, let me try here. brb
[03:42] <montpelie> kkk
[03:42] <Nu2Linux> afallenhope: sorry bud, I'm new to linux too, i could help you if we were talking about menus in IRC.
[03:42] <Dillizar> wait! gnome its gnome? there are not versions like KDA?
[03:42] <Nu2Linux> KDE?
[03:42] <afallenhope> Nu2Linux: the menus on the main pannel. I simply want to remove a folder
[03:42] <Flannel> redwhitewaldo: Alright
[03:42] <Flannel> russ: Alright
[03:43] <redwhitewaldo> testing
[03:43] <redwhitewaldo> hello?
[03:43] <redwhitewaldo> can you hear me, people?
[03:43] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: it says "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at <IP_ADDRESS>."
[03:43] <redwhitewaldo> same for <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:43] <redwhitewaldo> do you hear me?
[03:43] <Nu2Linux> I can see you redwhitewaldo
[03:43] <Nu2Linux> afallenhope: in what "ubuntu?
[03:43] <croddy> redwhitewaldo, is that address running a web server? generally that error indicates it is not.
[03:43] <afallenhope> Nu2Linux: yes
[03:43] <izinucs> http://pastebin.com/f3e7c4f2d
[03:43] <izinucs>   montpelie
[03:43] <colin3> #ubuntu
[03:43] <Nu2Linux> I just installed this myself I have no idea..
[03:43] <montpelie> sup?
[03:44] <redwhitewaldo> Flannel: why'd you say "alright"? did you get my "testing" message?
[03:44] <izinucs> redblacktree, did you try the other number?
[03:44] <AliP> I dont get it, how do I access an secondary hard drive on ubuntu, I just installed this and i have no idea wtf is going on.
[03:44] <Nu2Linux> most panel allow you to edit the contents using a right button click
[03:44] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, did you try the other number?
[03:44] <redwhitewaldo> that's funny. I was able to type things in while the router was connected, but I couldn't see any of your messages
[03:44] <izinucs> sorry redblacktree wrong nick
[03:44] <cateddy28> Anyone know the url for the log for this site?
[03:44] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: yes, both numbers were tried. both said "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at <IP_ADDRESS>."
[03:44] <Nu2Linux> afallenhope: where is the folder ?
[03:45] <redwhitewaldo> croddy, i'm not sure if that address is running a webserver.
[03:45] <colin3> can anyone help me solve a sound problem?
[03:45] <croddy> colin3, ask away
[03:45] <redwhitewaldo> croddy: this i can tell you: i am just a regular websurfer
[03:45] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, if you have the manual for the router it should give you the administrative ip address to see the rom
[03:45] <`Kermudge> <IP_ADDRESS> is your router is it not?
[03:45] <Nu2Linux> afallenhope: apps, places, system?
[03:45] <colin3> ok I just installed hardy and my sound doesn't work on some things
[03:45] <Flannel> redwhitewaldo: no, my nick complete was betraying me.  But, I did get your testing message.
[03:45] <colin3> i hear the drum sound at the login screen
[03:45] <colin3> i hear pidgin sounds
[03:45] <aspoor> is there a listserver email client for linux?
[03:45] <shree_> yaman: I was wondering how I woudl connect to you on VNC, do you know your IP
[03:45] <montpelie> shut, I did not get that izinucs, is that a sample?
[03:45] <colin3> and i hear the test sound on gstreamer-properties
[03:46] <kristjans> dumb question: how do i start up any application in awesome-wm, terminal for example?
[03:46] <colin3> but I can't hear sounds from amarok
[03:46] <crackerjackz> sent, awaiting response
[03:46] <yaman> shree_:
[03:46] <crackerjackz> it wont connect to any of the servers for portage
[03:46] <yaman> shree_: i did sent some messages to you on private ? !
[03:46] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: i have the paper manual. paper manual has no ip address
[03:46] <yaman> shree_: <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:46] <Bodsda> when i use theinternet the application doing so uses 60%-100% cpu! but when i watch this in top it says that my swap partition isnt being used at all,.,.is this normal?
[03:46] <izinucs> montpelie, yep.. just did cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit and that was the address returned.
[03:46] <crackerjackz> by i know my internet works because i can ping google
[03:46] <croddy> colin3, something is probably blocking the sound device. 'lsof |grep snd' might help you find what
[03:46] <abhi> is there any chm to pdf or html converter available for linux?
[03:46] <sigmounte> hello where can i find the patch to create a 2.6.25 ubuntu kernel from the kernel.org version ?
[03:46] <russ> OK Flannel I went and got APTonCD and when I start it, it lists a bunch of packages on my machine, but not all of the apps I have are listed, e.g., audacity, gtkpod, etc.  Are those packages on my machine somewhere? How can I find them? Or, barring that, how can I get them onto a CD for my friend?
[03:46] <shree_> yaman: i didnt receive those
[03:47] <crackerjackz> any ideas?
[03:47] <montpelie> uhhm, I guess I am missing some sort of configuration then
[03:47] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, you might check dell's website for a more detailed manuel.. or their online live help
[03:47] <yaman> shree_: mmm no private i think because not a registerd name
[03:47] <crackerjackz> it keeps timing out when i try to emerge something basically
[03:47] <yaman> shree_:  111111     (im open source)
[03:47] <colin3> this was the output: gconf-hel 6487      colin  mem       REG        8,2   357520  4950267 /usr/lib/libsndfile.so.1.0.17

[03:47] <crackerjackz> crap im talking in the wrong channel
[03:47] <Nu2Linux> is anyone here available for maybe 5 minutes to help me sort out the DVD issue. Nothing will get it playing. It's aggrevating since I can do anything I want in winblows.. But I really want to transition to Linux.
[03:47] <`Kermudge> Nite folks have fun I think.
[03:48] <Flannel> russ: do you have some examples of programs you have that aren't listed?
[03:48] <yaman> shree_: ?? you got it work ?
[03:48] <croddy> colin3, looks like gnome stuff is hogging the sound card. you'll want to look into something like pulseaudio
[03:48] <Nu2Linux> you too Kermudge
[03:48] <izinucs> montpelie, you're not doing it from Alt+f2 are you?  should be in an open terminal..
[03:48] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: good news. CD rom has some stuff. IP   Address   <IP_ADDRESS>.   Subnet   Mask: <IP_ADDRESS>. Does that help?
[03:48] <montpelie> right
[03:48] <mookinator1313> aggg!! im ready to kill some one, im stuck at a step in a tutorial kuz its a little out of date, and i dont know the language, can any one help me out?
[03:48] <colin3> ok thanks
[03:48] <redwhitewaldo> those are default settings.
[03:48] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, try it.
[03:48] <russ> Flannel sure, I listed two - audacity and gtkpod - I'm sure there's lots of others
[03:48] <abhi> is there any chm to pdf or html converter available for linux?
[03:48] <aspoor> is there a listserver email client for linux?
[03:49] <redwhitewaldo> ok. here we go again. pls stand by. i'll get the router in the loop again.
[03:49] <redwhitewaldo> 8-)
[03:49] <shree_> yaman: i am unable to connect
[03:49] <Nu2Linux> mookinator1313: we can use you over in Iraq../Iran.. :)
[03:49] <SanitariuM> abhi/aspoor : that'd probably be best answered by a simple google search
[03:49] <afallenhope> Nu2Linux: it's int the main "Applications"
[03:49] <croddy> aspoor, you want to run a mailing list, or subscribe to one?
[03:49] <mookinator1313> HEY!! JUST KUZ IM RETARTED!!
[03:49] <izinucs> abhi, yes.. search synaptic for chm and you'll see what you're looking for
[03:49] <Nu2Linux> afallenhope: ok the main menu?
[03:49] <abhi> ok
[03:49] <montpelie> izinucs , running it as root as well
[03:49] <mookinator1313> doesnt mean the army is my only option, im not THAT dumb
[03:49] <russ> Flannel I tried just searching for files with ".deb" in their names and a zillion "changelog.Debian.gz" were found but no files *.deb

[03:51] <aspoor> I have a python script that turns everything on the desktop into a SWF movie.  Go Me
[03:51] <colin3> croddy, it seems PulseAudio is already installed... what do I need to do with it?
[03:51] <croddy> montpelie, just paste the output by hand then
[03:51] <montpelie> haha
[03:51] <SanitariuM> How to change autostarted applications (file type associations)... all I see for easily accessible options is "web client" and "multimedia player"
[03:51] <croddy> !pulseaudio
[03:51] <Nu2Linux> afallenhope: I think if you click on : applications then >other then menu editor.. that's what you are looking for
[03:51] <izinucs> montpelie, there's a space between the file name and the | and pastebinit
[03:51] <montpelie> much easier ah
[03:51] <croddy> the link will have better info than i will colin3
[03:52] <montpelie> there certainly is
[03:52] <shree_> have u tried vnc from a dial-up ever b4
[03:52] <croddy> shree_, i have, and it's no fun!
[03:52] <montpelie> oceanvessel@oceangoingvessel-TPC:~$ cat apt-file-error | pastebinit
[03:52] <montpelie> http://pastebin.com/
[03:52] <montpelie> oceanvessel@oceangoingvessel-TPC:~$
[03:52] <Nu2Linux> I'm not positive since everything in linux is installed in a package manager but I think you can customize it there.
[03:52] <AliP> Can anyone help me access a hard drive on my computer?
[03:52] <croddy> you could have had it pasted by now!
[03:52] <montpelie> take a look at it
[03:52] <afallenhope> Nu2Linux:  thanks lol. I should have seen that
[03:52] <shree_> yaman: what port are you serving. i have used vnc  only on windows
[03:52] <AliP> I just installed ubuntu and i have no idea whats going on
[03:52] <yaman> shree_: telnet <IP_ADDRESS> 14314
[03:52] <izinucs> montpelie, apt-file-error is the name of the file?
[03:53] <Nu2Linux> :) Hey I'm lost myself. is that what you were looking for?
[03:53] <montpelie> correct
[03:53] <afallenhope> Nu2Linux:  yeah.
[03:53] <sam_> hi...
[03:53] <babolat> AliP: you'll have to give us more than that, like error prompts, messages and log info
[03:53] <Nu2Linux> :) Yeah, the newbies win a round.. lol
[03:53] <yaman> shree_: the port is automatic configured just i asked for telnet to check if the problem is from the vncserver or from the bad connection
[03:53] <shree_> yaman: unable to connect to you
[03:53] <Firefishe> I'm *still* working on a sync problem with a clie palmOS handheld.  When I sync, here's what <sudo dmesg> puts forth:  http://pastebin.org/37192   I'm using kpilot.
[03:53] <AliP> Well, I just tryed clicking on the harddrive like in WinXP, got "Cannot mount volume"
[03:53] <SanitariuM> AliP, how many hard drives do you have hooked up?  How are they partitioned?  What filesystem are they using?  Are they shown/detected by BIOS?
[03:54] <SanitariuM> does it give you a reason, alip?
[03:54] <yaman> shree_: oh shift
[03:54] <mysterioso> what is a good bit torrent downloading program, other than transmission?
[03:54] <yaman> shree_: i am dead
[03:54] <AliP> I have 5 hard drives, nfts, yes they detect in bios
[03:54] <babolat> AliP: what kind of HD is it
[03:54] <Flannel> russ: When you first start it, it lists the packages you have downloaded and are still in your apt-cache, you can add any dditional packages as well, by just indicating them. Everything in the repos is available
[03:54] <montpelie> d4x mysterioso
[03:54] <AliP> They are all Sata Seagates
[03:54] <croddy> mysterioso, i like deluge, but apt-cache search torrent for an extensive list
[03:54] <shree_> yaman: iam unable to ping you
[03:54] <afallenhope> Nu2Linux: actually I found it myself in the System -> Preference -> Main Menu and I deleted it from there
[03:54] <SanitariuM> sometimes ntfs (windows) drives if not properly shut down go into a read only mode, you have to bypass it with a FORCE option
[03:55] <babolat> Are they all ntfs AliP?
[03:55] <AliP> yes
[03:55] <SanitariuM> I'm new myself, but had to answer this one for myself a lil bit ago
[03:55] <flameon> yo i have a dell latitude c640.... master bios password installed, and i dont know who it was registered under so calling dell is useless... anyone know how to get by it
[03:55] <bmharsha> Hello, I am unable to access my external Harddisk, I am encountering an error saying "Cannot mount volume".
[03:55] <SanitariuM> I'll have to go look the command up on google for ya as I don't remember
[03:55] <Bassoon> Little.
[03:55] <Bassoon> "Lil
[03:55] <babolat> AliP: please install ntfs-3g from Synaptic
[03:55] <izinucs> montpelie, try with a different file name and include the path
[03:55] <croddy> flameon, if you need a bag, steal a camera, not a laptop
[03:55] <Bassoon> " is correctly spelled"little", SanitariuM.
[03:55] <yaman> shree_: this is the dialup protection :P
[03:55] <croddy> ;-)
[03:55] <shree_> babolat: what for is that 3g stuff
[03:56] <yaman> shree_: i used the www.whatismyip.com to find out my ip
[03:56] <shree_> yaman: yeah. i think you might need to forward the apckets to you else i wouldnt be able to reach you
[03:56] <babolat> shree_: it's for NTFS disk read/write capacity in the Linux kern
[03:56] <montpelie> kk, izinux; to let U know I am at the directory the file was generated into
[03:56] <yaman> shree_: this should work but i don't know y
[03:56] <AliP> What then?
[03:56] <hieu> hey im trying the cp command and it say i dont have permission, then i try the su command to get access and it say authentication fails, why so?
[03:56] <montpelie> ok, I'll give that a shot, hold on
[03:56] <izinucs> montpelie, include the path anyway.. just to eliminate that issue
[03:57] <croddy> flameon, you can try pulling the CMOS battery and waiting a couple of days, but any BIOS security that was worth implementing in the first place won't be vulnerable to that
[03:57] <montpelie> kk
[03:57] <russ> Flannel I don't see how to add things in the repos - when I click "add" it takes me to my local file system.  Would the package used to install gtkpod still be on my machine somewhere? How would I indicate to add something in the repos that is not on my local machine?
[03:57] <wurenliang> hi
[03:57] <bmharsha> I am unable to access my external Harddisk, I am encountering an error saying "Cannot mount volume". Please help
[03:57] <shree_> yaman: see when a packet comes to the router with that ip address that you mentioned, it will not know to whom it shoudl be sent and hence will be discarded
[03:57] <croddy> bmharsha, how is your external drive formatted?
[03:57] <montpelie> izinux same thing
[03:57] <shree_> yaman: if you forward i will be able to reach you at that ip address
[03:57] <babolat> bmharsha: what filesystem is your external HD?
[03:57] <bmharsha> croddy: It is an NTFS partition.
[03:57] <Nu2Linux> afallenhope: I hear ya.. :)
[03:58] <SanitariuM> if windows isn't properly shut down (would normally ask you if you want to boot into safe mode), it will not mount normally without being forced
[03:58] <izinucs> montpelie, try with a different file... like xorg.conf.. same address I gave you earlier..
[03:58] <croddy> bmharsha, do you have ntfs-3g installed? you will need it
[03:58] <flameon> croddy... i didt steel it, my little brother put the damn pawssord on it by accident, and my mom got it from the school she used to work at... the laptop was donated so i dont know who its registered to
[03:58] <babolat> bmharsha: do you have ntfs-3g installed?
[03:58] <yaman> shree_: i am not under a router i am not using a dsl it's only a dialup old hsfmodem
[03:58] <bmharsha> croddy: Yes
[03:58] <bmharsha>  babolat: yes
[03:58] <Flannel> russ: Hmm, it seems it doesn't download for you.   Alright, well, you can use apt-get -d install [packages], that'll download packages without installing, then aptonCD can find them
[03:58] <croddy> flameon, i was only kidding. try again to recover the password from your brother and then try pulling the CMOS battery
[03:58] <flameon> i did pull the cmos battery for 4 days, and it didnt clear cuz its NVRAM
[03:58] <shree_> yaman: try ifconfig. you wouldnt have this ip address assigned to you
[03:59] <yaman> shree_: i connect with ppl on windows some times but this is the first time i try on the linux also like you thats y i can't guess what is the problem
[03:59] <croddy> oh well then you're out of options i guess, sorry, it's bricked
[03:59] <montpelie> ok izinux, that came up with a number at the end, but the thing is, why is it not working with a file other than xorg.conf
[03:59] <babolat> bmharsha: try mounting the volume via the terminal
[03:59] <flameon> my lil bro was just messing with the keys... he dont know himself
[03:59] <evilmm> does anyone have any experience in getting intel 4965agn working with advanced wireless auth like 802.1x or LEAP?
[03:59] <yaman> shree_:inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>  P-t-P:<IP_ADDRESS>  Mask:<IP_ADDRESS>
[03:59] <bmharsha> babolat: how do I do that?
[03:59] <croddy> i know there is a little circuit you can build that cracks some revisions of thinkpad BIOS passwords but this is now off topic and we have exhausted all avenues flameon
[04:00] <shree_> yaman: hmmm
[04:00] <Bassoon> "Lil" is correctly spelled "little", flameon.
[04:00] <yaman> shree_: i hate only the connections on the linux lol
[04:00] <orudie> when i'm doing ls -s its not showing the complete list of files
[04:00] <bmharsha> croddy: yes I have installed ntfs-3g
[04:00] <hieu> hey i need to access the root directory, and i type in su in the terminal window, and type in password but it say authentication fails, why? i only set 1 password throughout installation.
[04:00] <babolat> bmharsha: might help -->http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-633002.html
[04:00] <orudie> ls -a
[04:01] <orudie> how can i list all files using ls
[04:01] <SanitariuM> bmharsha : open a terminal (applications, terminal), type "df", and see if your drive is listed.... look for the path to the device listed (example : /dev/sda1)
[04:01] <croddy> bmharsha, i think your ntfs partition was uncleanly unmounted -- someone here earlier mentioned a way to reset the clean unmount flag, but i don't know it
[04:01] <SuperQ> Hestv4: Ubuntu doesn't use su
[04:01] <Ububegin> how do you unzip in Ubuntu... This command "tar -xzvf" is only for tar files...
[04:01] <SuperQ> Hestv4: by default, you can use sudo su
[04:01] <croddy> Ububegin, unzip
[04:01] <shree_> yaman: i should tell you that I had problems earlier with drivers on fedora but Hardy was like damn easy
[04:01] <SuperQ> Hestv4: this is done to prevent people from forgetting the root password
[04:01] <flameon> sorry basson... i didnt know you were OCD as well as particular about spelling
[04:01] <HXSAIMING> HI
[04:01] <mookinator1313> how do i unpack a download source code?
[04:01] <shree_> yaman: i have installed it thrice already, mainly bcoz i keep tinkering with it always
[04:02] <russ> Flannel ok I've made a note of that and will give it a try. But a more general question apropos of the problem is this: what happens to a package once you install it? One of the packages APTonCD finds is emacs21 which is about the first thing I ever installed, but doesn't find a dozen or more packages I installed later. What gives?
[04:02] <yaman> shree_: no problem shree thanx i don't want to waste your time on the linux i am really happy that you tried to help me i ll try to find a way to remove the bad installation if it didn't work i ll reinstall the hardy again
[04:02] <montpelie> which compressor was the file shrunk with UBubegin??
[04:02] <Sleeping143> flameon: i haven't used this tactic in years, but some boards would lose the password with a BIOS flash
[04:02] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 it depends on how it is compressed
[04:02] <leprasmurf> hello all, 8.04 fresh install on a dell latitude d820.  I'm having a problem with alsa/sound.  on a fresh restart I'm able to play a movie with mplayer and everything is fine, it's an mpeg from a myth box so vlc speeds it up, etc... I just closed mplayer and went to start another one and it stops after about .5 seconds and no other application has any sound output
[04:02] <shree_> yaman: one thing i would try is
[04:02] <SuperQ> ~
[04:02] <Ububegin> croddy: merci, dude.. didnt even know .. I had *unzip*
[04:02] <SuperQ> !sudo > hieu
[04:02] <mookinator1313> im trying to make my wireless work faster than 5mbps
[04:02] <yaman> shree_: ?
[04:02] <flameon> Croddy... can we chat really quick on private
[04:02] <shree_> yaman: uninstall the hardware drivers
[04:02] <hieu> what up
[04:02] <russ> Flannel in other words, what causes a package to depart from my "apt-cache"?
[04:02] <shree_> yaman: application
[04:03] <croddy> flameon i am out of ideas, so no
[04:03] <mookinator1313> and im stuck at a step in the tutorial, because its a little out dated, and i dont know the language
[04:03] <SuperQ> hieu: sorry, I had the wrong nick
[04:03] <Flannel> russ: /var/cache/apt/archives, and you can clean them with apt-get clean or apt-get autoclean
[04:03] <shree_> yaman: remove any remnants of the ndiswrapper method, if you had tried
[04:03] <SuperQ> hieu: sudo is how you get root access on Ubuntu
[04:03] <hieu> oh, what's with the sudo command?
[04:03] <flameon> Croddy, about the circut u told me about....
[04:03] <SuperQ> hieu: sudo is like su, but it uses your normal password
[04:03] <croddy> !ot | flameon
[04:03] <montpelie> found something izinucs????
[04:03] <shree_> yaman: i had tried ndiswrapper on GNOME, but didnt get it right
[04:03] <hieu> oh ok
[04:03] <yaman> shree_: ah
[04:03] <SuperQ> hieu: it's better for most people because a lot of people forget their root passwords
[04:03] <shree_> yaman: i later tried this method and it worked in a flasj
[04:04] <yaman> shree_: i ll do it
[04:04] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 are you compiling userland or kernel/modules source?
[04:04] <shree_> yaman: after a reinstall when i tried this method it did work
[04:04] <hieu> so is the root password the password of hte first user created?
[04:04] <croddy> SuperQ, how does this work out when you hose the sudoers file?
[04:04] <SuperQ> hieu: no, the root password is disabled
[04:04] <yaman> shree_: ok i ll try it now
[04:04] <shree_> yaman: after removing both install the hardware drivers again
[04:04] <mookinator1313> uhh, i dont know what that means, so im just gonna say im stuck at step 3.2 in this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4894088
[04:04] <SuperQ> croddy: you boot to Recovery Mode, and it will give you root prompt with no password
[04:04] <leprasmurf> is the ICH7 audio chip family blacklisted in gutsy?
[04:04] <izinucs> montpelie, could just be that file .. you might try to copy it to the desktop then rename it to something more simple.
[04:04] <croddy> nassty
[04:05] <shree_> yaman: until you get the led on after boot, i dont think you can suspect anythign else
[04:05] <SuperQ> croddy: not really
[04:05] <Flannel> croddy: Don't hose the sudoers file, always edit it with visudo
[04:05] <russ> Flannel Kool - so if I do apt-get -d install [xxx] it grabs package xxx and puts it in there without installing?
[04:05] <yaman> shree_: ok , do you have a laptop ?
[04:05] <croddy> i'm gonna keep doing sudo passwd root immediately after installing
[04:05] <Flannel> russ: right
[04:05] <croddy> i like it like that
[04:05] <montpelie> k
[04:05] <SuperQ> croddy: why?
[04:05] <hieu> if it's disabled then how am i using it?
[04:05] <shree_> yaman: yeah, dell vostro
[04:05] <SuperQ> croddy: if I have physical access to your computer, there are 100 ways around a root password
[04:05] <shree_> yaman: i have not had any problem with wlan
[04:05] <ltcabral> hey ppl can anyone help me with my shell script? http://rafb.net/p/SvT0Io48.html the problem is that the file im running ./server is not inside a folder called server and changing to ./server/server wont work :(
[04:05] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 it gives the command for using tar to extract the archive
[04:05] <russ> thanks a million - wonder what caused all those other packages to get "cleaned"?
[04:06] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 what trouble are you having with the command?
[04:06] <yaman> shree_: thanx shree_ i don't know how to thank you ( can't find a good way )
[04:06] <mookinator1313> but its not the right command, because the tutorial is for a different version of the driver
[04:06] <croddy> SuperQ, you're welcome to try. bring your twofish books.
[04:06] <russ> thanks a million Flannel - wonder what caused all those other packages to get "cleaned"?
[04:06] <SuperQ> croddy: init=/bin/bash
[04:06] <SuperQ> done
[04:06] <shree_> yaman: i would have been happy to get your problem solved
[04:06] <SuperQ> :)
[04:06] <montpelie> shuuuut
[04:06] <montpelie> the same s.....t
[04:06] <SuperQ> that's only one way
[04:06] <abhi> I have created a custom Ubuntu 8.04 having all specific applications and codecs and media players. Can i distribute it in net?
[04:06] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: you there?
[04:06] <shree_> yaman: but i dont know where you are comitting a mistake
[04:06] <izinucs> montpelie, k..at this point I'm at a loss.
[04:06] <cdecarlo> Hi, I'm looking for a not-so-heavy IDE but not super light-weight either, any suggestions?
[04:06] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, yep
[04:06] <montpelie> I even tried by renaming the file to a txt
[04:06] <redwhitewaldo> i'm back without the router
[04:07] <redwhitewaldo> Did you get my messages?
[04:07] <montpelie> that's strange
[04:07] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 then change rt2500-1.1.0-b4.tar.gz to rt2500*.tar.gz that will extract it by pattern (version does not matter)
[04:07] <yaman> shree_: no problem thanx i know too much about windows mcse and vb6 12 years programmer i ll be glad if you want to ask about some thing
[04:07] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, no
[04:07] <shree_> yaman: i can assure you that I dont see any problem with the isntallation
[04:07] <yaman> shree_: was so kind from you
[04:07] <SuperQ> croddy: having a root password isn't all that usefull
[04:07] <redwhitewaldo> i can connect with the router, but even the router's Device Status page says that internet is not active.
[04:07] <redwhitewaldo> what's going on?
[04:07] <Firefishe> Palm sync success!  problem solved by switching device entry from /dev/pilot  to   usb:
[04:07] <Flannel> russ: I'm not too familir with what programs clean automatically.  Its possible that synaptic or add/remove does.
[04:07] <shree_> yaman: thanks, i am actually moving over to linux. all the best with yoru attempt
[04:07] <SuperQ> croddy: if login to that account is disabled
[04:08] <Starnestommy> redwhitewaldo: unregistered and unidentified users cannot send PMs to most users
[04:08] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, what kind of connection do you hve.. cable or dsl or ...?
[04:08] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: cable
[04:08] <yaman> shree_: yeah i c its really the best i am moving also thanx
[04:08] <redwhitewaldo> Starnestommy: oh, i'm talking about regular messages (not pm). We're trying to fix my router
[04:08] <yaman> shree_: bye
[04:08] <yaman> shree_: thanx
[04:08] <shree_> yaman: bye
[04:08] <nakedgoat> ey all.
[04:08] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: that didnt work either
[04:08] <eric> hi, my gnome sesion doesnot work after migrate from gusty to hardy, anyone  can help me?
[04:09] <Starnestommy> oh
[04:09] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 what file did you download? what command are you typing in the command line?
[04:09] <nakedgoat> eric: can you be more persise? what doesn't work have you tried creating a new user account?
[04:09] <harriseldon> redwhitewaldo sometimes cable requires that you clone the mac address of your computer. did you try that in the router settings?
[04:09] <mookinator1313> its the most current cvs on this page: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Downloads
[04:10] <eric> nakedgoat: i will try it in a console,
[04:10] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, harriseldon has a point
[04:10] <redwhitewaldo> harriseldon: i didn't touch anything on the router's settings
[04:10] <redwhitewaldo> i guess i could try that
[04:10] <SuperQ> croddy: dm-crypt is an ok solution, but even that's been worked around via the non-wiped ram attack
[04:10] <nakedgoat> eric: so x isn't running at all? whats are the errors?
[04:10] <redwhitewaldo> harriseldon: is that a matter of putting a check in a checkbox?
[04:10] <harriseldon> redwhitewaldo I do not remember off hand. I have seen the option but never used it. Look through the router documentation
[04:11] <logreeval> Hi, is it possible to update to Hardy thruogh the LiveCD
[04:11] <leprasmurf> what happened to the "bulk rename" app?
[04:11] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, it should be a button to push
[04:11] <Flannel> leprasmurf: "rename"?
[04:11] <redwhitewaldo> harriseldon: ok. if it's not a matter of just putting a check, how do i figure out my current (without router) MAC setting
[04:11] <redwhitewaldo> ... i meant "MAC address"
[04:11] <montpelie> hey izinucs, you just let me HIgh and dry man
[04:11] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 which source did you download? There are 5 versions.
[04:11] <montpelie> lol, help me out with it
[04:12] <eric> nakedgoat: you have right, i made an user, and i logged whit him
[04:12] <izinucs> montpelie, been trying... I've exaused all my options...
[04:12] <nakedgoat> eric: working?
[04:12] <eric> yeah, workinh
[04:12] <izinucs> redwhitewaldo, you won't need to know the mac address.. the router will find it by itself
[04:12] <the> hello
[04:12] <nakedgoat> eric: super, have a good night.
[04:12] <eric> it works for him
[04:12] <the> buenas noches
[04:12] <nakedgoat> k, del ur bad user
[04:13] <leprasmurf> Flannel: there was a utility (Applications>Accessories>Bulk Rename) which was a gui for bulk renaming.  extremely useful when you rip an audio book and are trying to load it onto your mp3 player
[04:13] <nakedgoat> and create ur new user AND USE IT
[04:13] <leprasmurf> can't find it in synaptic either
[04:13] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: harriseldon. ok. thanks. i'll do the re-wiring again.
[04:13] <logreeval> anyone?, I only have the ubuntu hardy heron livecd, can you only update through the alternate CD?
[04:13] <redwhitewaldo> i'll be right back. 8-)
[04:13] <eric> then the trouble is a malforming conf  in the other accounts,
[04:13] <mookinator1313> rt2500 cvs
[04:13] <nakedgoat> and stop del; stuff from ur home folder ;)
[04:13] <harriseldon> redwhitewaldo: System-Administration-NetWork Tools -- choose your device (probably eth0) look at hardware address
[04:13] <eric> someone that stopping the gnome panel and desktop
[04:13] <Flannel> leprasmurf: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=rename&searchon=names&suite=hardy&section=all
[04:13] <Jonathan_R> i'm used to rpm, and have read the man pages for dpkg, dselect, and dpkg-deb, i need to know the debian version of rpm -q --requires
[04:14] <nakedgoat> eric: ok, so -- u created a new user and it works fine? and the problem is what?
[04:14] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: i downloaded 2500 cvs
[04:14] <Flannel> Jonathan_R: What does rpm -q --requires do?
[04:14] <leprasmurf> Flannel: nvm, I already looked through those and installed a few, none of them are what was in the previous release from what I can see
[04:14] <Jonathan_R> its like this
[04:14] <nakedgoat> eric: sorry just trying to clarify
[04:15] <Jonathan_R> gonna paste in pastebin Flannel
[04:15] <godlygeek> any way to get a gconf-using app to reset all its gconf keys to their defaults?
[04:15] <Flannel> leprasmurf: Those look to be the same ones that were offered in gutsy
[04:15] <Jonathan_R> http://pastebin.com/m8cfcf89 Flannel here ya go
[04:15] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 then the command should be tar -zxvf /home/yourlogin/rt2500-cvs-daily.tar.gz (replace /home/yourlogin with path of the file)
[04:15] <nakedgoat> brb
[04:15] <leprasmurf> Flannel: and none of them are what was installed by default apparently.
[04:16] <Flannel> Jonathan_R: so, just list depends?
[04:16] <Jonathan_R> right
[04:16] <eric> the problem is tha the old users can log in in a gnome sesion, but the desktop is frozen, not work,. This users can log in kde without probklems
[04:16] <Jonathan_R> i need the deb equivalent
[04:16] <Jonathan_R> with out using apt-get
[04:16] <Flannel> Jonathan_R: apt-cache show [package] or apt-cache showpkg [package]
[04:16] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: where should i send the file?
[04:16] <Flannel> Jonathan_R: They both offer different information, both include depends (in slightly different formats)
[04:16] <Jonathan_R> ok, is there a way to do it with dpkg?
[04:17] <phenom_> hey im having trouble with speakers ... i have a 5.1 onboard sound card with 5.1 setup ... all channels work except center speaker
[04:17] <harriseldon> mookinator: have your performed step 3.1? When you use the tar command it will extract the archive to the current directory
[04:17] <YixilTesiphon> bizarre problem: every time I try and connect to the router (not mine - 2Wire HomePortal 1000HW using WEP) the router loses its link with DSL
[04:17] <YixilTesiphon> anybody got any idea why that would be happening?
[04:17] <Irene> hdoaekj
[04:17] <eric> nakedgoat: the old users can log in in gnome, but their session are not working fine, the desktop not work
[04:17] <russ> Flannel thanks a lot for your help.
[04:18] <Flannel> Jonathan_R: dpkg-deb -I [deb]
[04:18] <mookinator1313> yea, i did step 3.1
[04:18] <Flannel> clear
[04:18] <Jonathan_R> ty
[04:18] <nakedgoat> eric: new users work ok?
[04:19] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 then step 3.2 should work. Do you know where you saved the archive?
[04:19] <jaebird> Ubuntu Live Cancelled?
[04:19] <jaebird> does anyone know why?
[04:19] <Flannel> jaebird: Who said it was?
[04:19] <orudie> does anyone know of ploticus? i'm having trouble to getting pl to be executable
[04:20] <jaebird> I got an email from O'Reilly Media
[04:20] <jaebird> i was registered
[04:20] <Jonathan_R> so Flannel with dpkg, I thought -l was to list the files of a packages
[04:20] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: yea, i have the file browser open to it now
[04:20] <jayk-> is there a way to get the configure time options for a package?
[04:20] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 are you using that full path on the command line with the tar command?
[04:20] <Flannel> Jonathan_R: -L
[04:21] <Jonathan_R> ok so you said I
[04:21] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: what do you mean?
[04:21] <jaebird> We're sorry to tell you that the Ubuntu Live conference, which was scheduled to take place July 21-22 in Portland, OR has been cancelled.  We are planning to include some Ubuntu content in the O'Reilly Open Source Convention (OSCON) also happening July 21-25 in Portland, Oregon.
[04:21] <Jonathan_R> I and l look a lot alike
[04:21] <Flannel> Jonathan_R: -I is for info for depends.  -L is for listing contents.  dpkg -l (lower L) lists packages installed in your system
[04:21] <ce_bth_tmn> hai semua
[04:21] <Flannel> jaebird: #ubuntu-offtopic, not here.
[04:21] <Jonathan_R> ty Flannel
[04:21] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 are you getting a specific error with the tar command? what is the path in the file browser for the file?
[04:22] <jaebird> Flannel, uh
[04:22] <redwhitewaldo> hi
[04:22] <Flannel> jaebird: This is for support only, not general ubuntu discussion
[04:22] <redwhitewaldo> izinucs: harriseldon. help
[04:22] <redwhitewaldo> 8-)
[04:22] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: heh, i seemed to have figured it out, kuz it spat out a whole bunch of stuff i havent seen before
[04:22] <redwhitewaldo> anybody here?
[04:23] <jaebird> Flannel, nice
[04:23] <ce_bth_tmn> yaa
[04:23] <harriseldon> redwhitewaldo what happened? did you figure out how to clone your mac address?
[04:23] <cu3edweb> how can I set keybindings in compiz to change desktops?
[04:23] <orudie> bazhang, do you know of ploticus? i'm having trouble getting pl to be executable
[04:23] <redwhitewaldo> harriseldon: no. 8-(
[04:23] <arooni-mobile> i have a laptop and a PC running hardy.  HOWEVER ... the version of 'unison' ( a cool file sync utility ) are different on each system.  on laptop its 2.13.16; on PC its 2.27.57.  i've already tried running 'sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude dist upgrade' ... and the versions of unison are still different!  help!
[04:24] <redwhitewaldo> i took screenshots. would you like to know the ones related to MAC?
[04:24] <YixilTesiphon> so anybody know why attempting to connect using wep to the router would cause the router to lose its connection to all the other boxes in the house and the DSL line?
[04:24] <harriseldon> redwhitewaldo sure find a place to paste them and I can take a look
[04:24] <daks> hello
[04:24] <Flannel> jaebird: sorry, I realised we probably should take it somewhere appropriate, but you have more information than anyone here apparently.  UDS is going on, so it may take some time for it to trickle down through other channels (planet for instance)
[04:25] <ce_bth_tmn> speak Indonesian please
[04:25] <daks> does anybody know what would cause network manager to say  'Connection ":1.54" is not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo"??
[04:25] <orudie> bazhang, do you know of ploticus? i'm having trouble getting pl to be executable
[04:25] <arooni-mobile> where do i go to turn the annoying system beep off (what happens when you try to delete and you cant delete anymore)
[04:25] <orudie> does anyone know of ploticus? i'm having trouble to getting pl to be executable
[04:25] <harriseldon> orudie what have you tried?
[04:25] <orudie> harriseldon, i really dont know how to get it executable
[04:26] <Starnestommy> orudie: chmod +x filename
[04:26] <cu3edweb> anyone know how to set keybindings for desktop switching with compiz?
[04:26] <orudie> i'm looking at this tutorial http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EasyTimeline/installation#Download_Ploticus
[04:27] <orudie> this is the line
[04:27] <orudie> If you can't put the Ploticus executable pl in /usr/local/bin, or any of the other suggested locations, just make sure it's executable
[04:27] <albert_linux> Hello. I just installed apache and ftp server: apt-get install apache2 AND apt-get install proftpd. The question is: how can I configure the standard folder be /var/www? and how can I enable the permition to create a subdirectory?
[04:27] <orudie> i didnt go to a download link
[04:27] <harriseldon> orudie where is pl installed? you can run which pl from the command line to see
[04:27] <orudie> i just tried sudo apt-get install ploticus and it worked
[04:27] <orudie> harriseldon, which pl returns nothing
[04:28] <blah569> Photoshop CS2 lags as if it would lag on Vista when I am using it on WINE.  Does anyone know of a way to "speed PSCS2?"
[04:28] <harriseldon> orudie then pl is not in your path. did you install it using apt?
[04:28] <daks> I just upgraded to 8.04 from 7.10 and network-manager has stopped working.  when I run nm-applet from the command line, it gives me a cryptic message about not being able to own something.  has anyone else had this proglem?
[04:28] <orudie> harriseldon, yeah
[04:28] <orudie> harriseldon, installed using apt and it seems like it installed fine
[04:28] <blah569> This is primarly with Text editing.
[04:28] <mookinator1313> harriseldon, now im stuck at step 5.1
[04:28] <orudie> harriseldon, i can do 'which ploticus' and 'ploticus --version'
[04:29] <albert_linux> can anyone help me?
[04:29] <krammer_> anybody know when 8.04 will be ready and stable?
[04:29] <harriseldon> orudie does that work? Then use that full path in the php file
[04:30] <orudie> harriseldon, yeah, but it doesnt work i cant find pl
[04:30] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: how do i change the code in step 5.1 so it works?
[04:30] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 the path should depend on the version you installed. If you use ls /root/source you can see the directory name that is correct
[04:30] <vitas> sorry noob question of doom coming up: how do i install my wireless tar.gz drivers?
[04:30] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 or you can use cd rt25* when you are in /root/source
[04:31] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 or you can use tab completion. Type cd rt [tab]
[04:31] <mookinator1313> im soo lost
[04:31] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 are you at the terminal?
[04:31] <teddy> arrgh
[04:31] <mookinator1313> yes
[04:32] <harriseldon> mookinator what do you get when you type pwd?
[04:32] <mookinator1313> i made it up to step 5.1 in that tutorial i sent you earlier
[04:32] <krammer_> Linux is patience but is well worth it
[04:32] <colin3> hey croddy, so after doing everything from the pulseaudio documentation, all of my sound quit altogether... however, i uninstalled that and went back to the way it was, and now i can get the sound working on any application where i can change the audio settings to use ALSA... is there an easier way to set this for everything?
[04:32] <montpelie> sure it is krammer_
[04:32] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 if you got that far, the cd command should be easy. lol
[04:32] <cdecarlo> Hi, I'm looking for a not-so-heavy IDE but not super light-weight either, any suggestions?
[04:33] <mookinator1313> uhh i just kinda followed exactly what the guy said to do
[04:33] <cdm10> I need to get a PCI wireless adapter... what should I look for for Ubuntu compatibility?
[04:33] <teddy> i'm curious if anyone here uses a cisco anyconnect VPN client, mine broke after the SSL/Hardy Heron upgrade
[04:33] <mookinator1313> and i get stuck when his codes are out to date
[04:33] <harriseldon> mookinator1313. I am trying to help. What is the error you are getting with cd command?
[04:33] <redwhitewaldo> harriseldon: pls see http://www.bubbleshare.com/album/382754.0fbd91d0d95 for the pics
[04:33] <montpelie> Ipass VPN Client
[04:33] <montpelie> cd
[04:33] <ari_stress> morning all
[04:33] <mookinator1313> cd command? wich is that? yes, i really am this nooberish
[04:34] <teddy> mookinator1313, cd means "change directory"
[04:34] <teddy> it's how you move through the filesystem
[04:34] <vitas> can anyone tell me how to install drivers? jesus this is so confusing.
[04:34] <mookinator1313> ok, so what do i type into the terminal?
[04:34] <krammer_> Try ultra VNC
[04:35] <redwhitewaldo> harriseldon: let me know if you can see them ok.
[04:35] <redwhitewaldo> 8-)
[04:35] <harriseldon> redwhitewaldo I see the check box! It is on picture 4 (Your ISP requires you to input WAN ethernet Mac)
[04:35] <colin3> croddy did you get that?
[04:35] <teddy> krammer_, i think i tried that in the past, but it was a bit cumbersome
[04:35] <montpelie> cdm10, that's what I meant
[04:35] <teddy> i'm just cureious if anyone has had certificate errors since the upgrade really
[04:35] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: what do i type in to the terminal for the cd command?
[04:35] <redwhitewaldo> yes, i put a check there, which led to Picture 6. Pls see pic 6
[04:36] <cdm10> montpelie: sorry, what? I think I missed your message or something...
[04:36]  * vitas eyes his xp disk
[04:36] <teddy> mookinator1313, type cd
[04:36] <j4w4> can someone please tell me how to navigate to my .wine folder using the terminal??? Is it a hidden directory? I have selected "view hidden filess" from my view menu
[04:36] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 did you try cd rt25*?
[04:36] <redwhitewaldo> harriseldon: The MAC address, as in Pic 6 is all filled out, but internet still doesnn't work. 8-(
[04:36] <cdm10> j4w4: type cd ~/.wine
[04:36] <montpelie> right cdm10, you were talking about some issues with the VPN client
[04:36] <j4w4> cdm10 thanks, ill try it, what does the ~ mean?
[04:36] <cdm10> montpelie: I was not... I was talking about PCI wireless adapters.
[04:36] <cdm10> j4w4: it means your home directory
[04:36] <teddy> montpelie, i had the vpn issue
[04:37] <j4w4> cdm10: ok ill try it, thanks
[04:37] <mookinator1313> cd rt25* came up as no file or directory
[04:37] <montpelie> ok, what kind of issue, terddy
[04:37] <j4w4> cdm10: it worked, thanks.
[04:37] <cdm10> j4w4: np
[04:37] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: cd rt25* came up as no file or directory
[04:37] <harriseldon> redwhitewaldo, you can uncheck the hostname checkbox. When I used cable (5 years) I had to leave the modem unplugged for 10 minutes before switching computers. did you try that?
[04:38] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 can you give the output of ls rt*
[04:38] <teddy> well, i think i might have a corrupted certificate on file, because when i attempt to connect i get a "Connection attempt has failed due to server certificate problem"
[04:38] <arooni-mobile> are hardy backports a good/bad idea?
[04:38] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: i am really really really lost
[04:38] <redwhitewaldo> unplug/power-off modem, harriseldon?
[04:39] <teddy> i know it says server, but i am able to connect with the annyconnect woftware on my Mac
[04:39] <redwhitewaldo> the CABLE modem from the internet company, harriseldon?
[04:39] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: how do i give the output of ls rt*?
[04:39] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 I am trying to have you list the contents of the current directory to find out where the archive was extracted.
[04:39] <arhino> anyone know how to disable the thing where scrolling rotates the desktop cube
[04:39] <redwhitewaldo> I haven't tried switching off the cable modem, harriseldon.
[04:39] <harriseldon> redwhitewaldo at this point it cannot make it worse. you can try it
[04:39] <teddy> montpelie, do you have a favorite vpn client?
[04:39] <mookinator1313> oh, i know where it was extracted, it went to /home/mat
[04:39] <redwhitewaldo> harriseldon: ok.
[04:40] <mookinator1313> herriseldon: it was extracted to /home/mat
[04:40] <tv7497> guys my theme is horrible the inside one it looks like windows classic any help
[04:40] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 if type pwd to print the working directory does it show /home/mat?
[04:40] <vitas> soooooo
[04:40] <mookinator1313> it jsut says /root
[04:41] <setuid_w00t> Are there any programs that can be used to try to read a device repeatedly?  I have a DVD that isn't reading very well and I want to try to extract all of the data from it.
[04:41] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: it just says /root
[04:41] <tv7497> and i have tried almost every theme from gnome.org still no result
[04:41] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 what was the directory when you issued the tar command?
[04:42] <arhino> tv7494: try clearlooks industrial with murrine windowborders.
[04:42] <arhino> it looks really clean
[04:42] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: root@comp-pwnage:~#
[04:42] <arhino> nvm
[04:42] <conwon> hey room
[04:43] <vitas> anyone help me load up my wireless driver
[04:43] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: root@comp-pwnage:~/source# tar -zxvf /home/mat/rt2500-cvs-daily.tar.gz
[04:43] <tv7497> bazhang : sir still no improvement in my theme tried every thing from gnome.org the apllication like start up manager s/w sources the inside theme is horrible like windows classic
[04:43] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: that command, right?
[04:43] <vitas> this is turning out to be a nightmare, and i'm sick of laying on the floor to use my laptop
[04:43] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 then you need to be in ~/source when you issue the cd command
[04:44] <mookinator1313> how do i get there?
[04:44] <teddy> vitas, do you knoa the chipset on your wireless card?
[04:44] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 you can issue the cd ~/source command
[04:44] <neil_d> hi, i am having some trouble with a USB modem :(  it appears that at startup the driver sometimes doesn't find the modem, but if I unplug the modem and plug it back in all is OK :)  is the a way of restarting the USB system or something to simulate a device unplug and plug in ?
[04:44] <empresaria> HOLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa
[04:44] <DanaG> japa -A
[04:44] <DanaG> Alsa_driver: the playback interface doesn't support mmap-based access.
[04:44] <DanaG> Can't connect to ALSA
[04:44] <daks> vitas: me too
[04:44] <ce_bth_tmn> shiet!!!!!!
[04:44] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 ~ is short for your home directory
[04:44] <DanaG> So what if it doesn't support mmap?
[04:44] <DanaG> I should still be able to start an application!
[04:44] <krammer_> nmap?
[04:44] <kajo> wtf? I installed banshee with the intentions of removing it after using it to do what I wanted (which was to extract the music off of a friend's ipod shuffle). I installed it, couldn't get it to work (appeared to be a dbus issue, bellow the ipod library, didn't have time...), and so sudo aptitude remove'd banshee (I used sudo aptitude install so it would keep track of everything).
[04:45] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: im in ~/source# now
[04:45] <vitas> I downloaded the tar.gz - it's a realtek 8185
[04:45] <kajo> And now, I start up my window manager, and it's using gnome. I never had gnome installed before.
[04:45] <vitas> i'm in terminal
[04:45] <apallo> Hello, I lost my wireless applet thingy that's in the top panel, is there a way to get it back?
[04:45] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 then try typing cd rt then hit the tab key without hitting enter
[04:45] <cdm10> apallo: hit alt-f2, and type nm-applet
[04:45] <AS> hy
[04:45] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: now what?
[04:45] <AS> sd
[04:45] <cdm10> apallo: you mean permanently? Have you tried rebooting?
[04:45] <krammer_> apallo right click on panel and add
[04:46] <AS> mkn
[04:46] <cdm10> krammer_: if he's talking about networkmanager, it's not that.
[04:46] <krammer_> i know
[04:46] <DanaG> That app is broken -- it assumes everything can give mmap.
[04:46] <daks> quit
[04:46] <apallo> It doesn't show up in add...
[04:46] <cdm10> apallo: have you tried logging off and back on?
[04:46] <apallo> cdm10: will that fix it permanantly?
[04:46] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 when you hit tab did it autocomplete the directory? If it did, press enter
[04:46] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: should i press enter after hitting tab?
[04:46] <apallo> trying now, thanks
[04:47] <apallo> brb
[04:47] <kajo> wtf? I installed banshee with the intentions of removing it after using it to do what I wanted (which was to extract the music off of a friend's ipod shuffle). I installed it, couldn't get it to work (appeared to be a dbus issue, bellow the ipod library, didn't have time...), and so sudo aptitude remove'd banshee (I used sudo aptitude install so it would keep track of everything). It's important to know that I don't have gdm, wdm, or xdm (o
[04:47] <kajo> r any equiv) on my computer- I just login in the terminal, and then use 'startx'. This takes me to fluxbox, which is the only window manager I had installed... this time when I typed in 'startx', it took my to a jacked up gnome that has issues. ???? why/how? How do I completely uninstall this intrusion? I tried sudo aptitude remove gnome, and it didn't find anything.
[04:47] <cdm10> apallo: it won't, it'll just start it for that session. If it won't come back after logging off and back on, go to System>Preferences>Sessions and we'll go from there.
[04:47] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 sorry type Mo then tab again to begin the autocomplete for Modules
[04:47] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: ok, now it says root@comp-pwnage:~/source/rt2500-cvs-2008051921#
[04:47] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 then hit enter
[04:47] <krammer_> how do you do the highligt red for answering quesitons
[04:47] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 then use cd Modules
[04:47] <rgreening> has anyone setup kontack (korganizer) to use google calendar?
[04:47] <cdm10> krammer_: just say someone's nick, and it'll highlight on their client
[04:48] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 sorry that was cd Module
[04:48] <krammer_> cdm10
[04:48] <cdm10> krammer_: yep, that did it.
[04:48] <krammer_> but i dont c the red
[04:48] <cdm10> krammer_: but I do.
[04:48] <krammer_> ok
[04:48] <cdm10> apallo: hey, is it back?
[04:49] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: now im really lost lol, it spat out this: root@comp-pwnage:~/source/rt2500-cvs-2008051921# mo

[04:49] <cdm10> apallo: alright, go to System>Preferences>Sessions
[04:49] <krammer_> goodnite all
[04:49] <montpelie> ok izinucs
[04:49] <montpelie> http://pastebin.ca/1023475
[04:49] <levander> It'd be cool if someone would write a command line utility that would let you pipe output into it and then paste what gets piped to it to a pastebin.
[04:50] <montpelie> the problem I got with apt-file update
[04:50] <cdm10> levander: ha, that exists
[04:50] <torshido> which kind of ssh key is "better"? DSA or RSA? why?
[04:50] <cdm10> levander: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[04:50] <cdm10> torshido: er, are you sure you're talking about ssh? I think DSA is a PGP thing...
[04:50] <teddy> levander, wouldnt be hard, | clipboard
[04:50] <biochip2k> @ setuid_w00t: sudo apt-get install gddrescue
[04:50] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: did you get that?
[04:50] <levander> cdm10: Sitting in this channel, I was figuring someone had already written one that sent whatever was piped to it to the specified IRC channel.
[04:50] <torshido> ssh-keygen -t dsa
[04:50] <kajo> How does one restore one's system to it's previous state?
[04:51] <cdm10> levander: ha, no, people just copy and paste 'em in, which is bad.
[04:51] <levander> cdm10: I'm gonna try that one next time I get a chance.  Thanks.
[04:51] <cdm10> kajo: unless you have a backup, that's not going to happen...
[04:51] <levander> cdm10: I know, I was trying to make geek humor.
[04:51] <teddy> hmm
[04:51] <kajo> cdm10, did you see my last post?
[04:51] <teddy> would be kinda cool to have a DCC pastebin
[04:51] <cdm10> levander: Sorry, I shoulda noticed :) Sorry for the cyber-sarcasm fail.
[04:51] <torshido> cdm10: it is not a gpg thing
[04:51] <chaqu1> ok i got a quick one for someone
[04:52] <cdm10> torshido: ah, sorry, I don't know as much about ssh as I should.
[04:52] <mookinator1313> herriseldon: hello? now what?
[04:52] <chaqu1> i recently switched over to epiphany web browser, now when i click on links they dont open my web browser
[04:52] <torshido> so, which kind of ssh key is "better"? DSA or RSA? why?
[04:52] <chaqu1> how do i set it?
[04:52] <teddy> i think DSA is newer
[04:52] <teddy> not sure though
[04:52] <kajo> I was under the impression that using aptitude to install software would allow one to completely remove everything that was installed by using aptitude to remove it.  What is that?? What would that try to do?
[04:53] <redwhitewald1> harriseldon: but now I don't know what is the solution: was it the MAC thing, the modem off thing, or the computer off thing?
[04:53] <teddy> redwhitewald1, there was probably an arp issue
[04:53] <teddy> solved by a 60 second timeout
[04:54] <cdm10> kajo: it would try to remove everything that was installed as a dependency and is no longer needed.
[04:54] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: it spat out a few things: root@comp-pwnage:~/source/rt2500-cvs-2008051921# make clean ; make ; make install
[04:54] <mookinator1313> make: *** No rule to make target `clean'.  Stop.

[04:54] <redwhitewald1> teddy: what's an "ARP" issue?
[04:54] <amenado> mookid-> read the error, it is very clear to what the cause of it is.
[04:54] <Ahadiel> mookinator1313, Did you ./configure first?
[04:54] <teddy> address routing protocal i believe
[04:54] <teddy> let me find the wiki page
[04:55] <kajo> cdm10, I fear that installing banshee with aptitude installed gnome with it as a 'dependency', and everything that entailed (including tons of unwanted software...).... will that fix this?
[04:55] <rolando-ve> Hi everyone
[04:55] <mookinator1313> ahadiel: uhh what?
[04:55] <redwhitewald1> so how does arp fit in with my guesses?
[04:55] <teddy> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_Resolution_Protocol
[04:55] <cdm10> kajo: it might.
[04:55] <Ahadiel> mookinator1313, ./configure
[04:55] <tv7497> rolando-ve :hey !!!!!!
[04:55] <cdm10> kajo: no guarantees, sorry
[04:55] <Ahadiel> mookinator1313, It's an executable in that directory no doubt.
[04:55] <teddy> redwhitewald1, arp is how routing gear finds your hardware in the midst of packets
[04:55] <cdm10> kajo: I'm not entirely sure why/how everything else got installed, so...
[04:55] <rolando-ve> I have a question, if anybody can answer it I'll so glad
[04:55] <j4w4> how do i restore something i put in the trash can??
[04:55] <cdm10> j4w4: drag it back to somewhere
[04:55] <rolando-ve> I have in my hands a Classmate PC (intel) and I wanna install on it Edubuntu, where and how can I find an Image or create my image?
[04:55] <j4w4> cdm10 thanks, ill give it a shot
[04:56] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: whered you go? im soo lost
[04:56] <rolando-ve> May I use the UME (moblin-image-creator) to create an Image?
[04:56] <amenado> rolando-ve-> what os does it have on it now?
[04:56] <Ahadiel> mookinator1313, Well? Did you run ./configure? That's the program which makes the makefile.
[04:56] <lobazo> please help me i can't restart cups in a terminal i wrote sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart it's says ok. but my printer hp 3740 is flinking

[04:56] <montpelie> hey, anybody having issues while doing "apt-file update" ??????????''
[04:56] <cdm10> Does anyone have any recommendations for a PCI WiFi card that works nicely with Ubuntu?
[04:57] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 use the pastebin service to copy and paste the output at http://paste.ubuntu.com
[04:57] <montpelie> cdm10 , atheros
[04:57] <SeaPhor> cdm10, i do
[04:57] <cdm10> montpelie: Any specific models that use the Atheros chipset? D-Link, right?
[04:57] <cdm10> SeaPhor: what is it?
[04:57] <montpelie> correct
[04:57] <rolando-ve> amenado: WindowsXP
[04:57] <_2> what's the command to start a pannel ?

[04:58] <montpelie> it also depends on the things you'd like to do with it, let's say packet injection
[04:58] <amenado> rolando-ve-> does it have a cdrom drive? you can try to use the liveCD to install
[04:58] <Ahadiel> mookinator1313, Are you **sure** there's a makefile in that folder?
[04:58] <cdm10> montpelie: I just want to connect to my network :) nothing fancy
[04:58] <Ahadiel> mookinator1313, Maybe look around in the directory structure and see.
[04:58] <montpelie> atheros would be the best as well
[04:58] <SeaPhor> cdm10,  Airlink AWLH4130 108 PCI Wireless-G 108Mbps PCI
[04:58] <rolando-ve> amenado: Nop.
[04:58] <cdm10> SeaPhor: I'll look into that as well.
[04:58] <_2> what's the command to start the panel ?     as kicker is to kde so ___? is to gnome ?
[04:58] <cdm10> _2: gnome-panel
[04:58] <SeaPhor> cdm10, works out of the box!!!
[04:58] <amenado> rolando-ve-> what devices does it have?
[04:58] <_2> k
[04:58] <_2> ty

[04:59] <calm> Hi everyone! Does anyone know how to find out the current value for the hdparm apm setting? (For example, hdparm -B 254 will *set* the value to 254, but I just want to *get* the value.)
[04:59] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: can you continue helpin me out?
[04:59] <rolando-ve> amenado:  In fact: a classmate PC is a spacial Education PC with 256Mb RAM and 2Gb Hard disk
[04:59] <cdm10> calm: try just typing hdparm -B
[04:59] <montpelie> with a wifi card on it
[04:59] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 use the pastebin service to paste your results
[04:59] <rolando-ve> amenado: 2 USB ports
[04:59] <cdm10> calm: iirc, that's how most settings on hdparm work
[04:59] <Qster> anyone know how to raise usb polling rate to 500hz?
[04:59] <calm> cdm10: that doesn't work for -B
[04:59] <cdm10> montpelie: yep, can't wire ethernet in here

[05:00] <chaqu1> can anybody help me making the switch to epiphany webbrowser?
[05:00] <montpelie> at first I thought linksys would be the best choice, nevertheless it's still got some problem with the driver; you need to use it with ndiswrapper
[05:00] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: wich results? of what? the whole make clean ; make ; make install thing?
[05:00] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 whole thing

[05:00] <cdm10> chaqu1: I used to use Epiphany until I switched to Hardy, and now use Firefox 3
[05:00] <cdm10> chaqu1: but, what do you need help with?
[05:00] <amenado> rolando-ve-> does it have a floppy disk? btw, which country is that sold in?
[05:01] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: like my entire terminal history for today?

[05:01] <chaqu1> CDM10: i didn't enjoy firefox so i went elseware and i am now using epiphany, when i click on links say in pidgin it doesnt open the webpage
[05:01] <cdm10> surlyduff: what sorta wireless adapter is it?
[05:01] <cdm10> apallo: hmm... does it start when you run nm-applet from alt-f2?
[05:02] <majikins> hi does anyone know a utility for backing up a system to dvd's for install on another system?
[05:02] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 just the ouput from the last command. That is where is is failing
[05:02] <cdm10> chaqu1: go to System>Preferences>Preferred Applications and see what you can do from there
[05:02] <yusuf_> icha
[05:02] <montpelie> majikins you could use the "dd" command
[05:02] <deserteagle> anyone know how to restore the Applications > Wine > Program Files directory so it updates when there are new apps installed?
[05:02] <chaqu1> cdm10: i have a tendancy to overlook the obvious, thanks
[05:02] <cdm10> chaqu1: no problem :)
[05:02] <squidy> Hi there... Is there a way to configure network profiles with network-manager?

[05:03] <Omlette> Squidy: wired or wireless networks?
[05:03] <harriseldon> deserteagle did you try right-clicking on Applications menu and choosing edit menu?

[05:03] <Qster> anyone know how to raise usb polling rate to 500hz?
[05:04] <deserteagle> anyone know how to restore the Applications > Wine > Program Files directory so it updates when there are new apps installed?
[05:04] <squidy> Omlette, both...
[05:04] <cdm10> surlyduff: I have no experience with that, so I can't really help you there... sorry
[05:04] <Omlette> If you use Network manager, try right-clicking on the applet in your tray. Select "edit wireless networks.." and go from there.
[05:04] <majikins> must be like an windows 3.1 install - just feed disks in until finish
[05:04] <Omlette> The network manager applet, that is.
[05:04] <squidy> Omahn, how about wired connection?
[05:04] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: i pasted it, now what?
[05:04] <harriseldon> paste! mookinator1313
[05:04] <Omlette> It might also work for wired, I don't know.

[05:05] <_2> ok one more question.  how to set gnome as the default session if a person uses startx   ?

[05:05] <cdm10> redwhitewald1: yep... WPA Personal
[05:05] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: its pasted in the pastebin, now what do i do?

[05:08] <amenado> !install | rolando-ve
[05:08] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 you need to be in the Module directory. use cd Module to get there

[05:08] <wuxia> is there a way to force Linux to flush file caches?
[05:08] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 then try the previous command again
[05:08] <montpelie> oh karkin, you know which kind of digitizer your tablet uses?
[05:08] <amenado> wers very possible, he has a router or the ubuntu can be the router, but it requires two interfaces
[05:09] <j4w4> cdm10 thanks,  i did use -s, got the exact command line from a webpage that teaches how to link the wine steamapps to the windows steamapps, not sure whats up but ill keep tinkering with it
[05:09] <karkin> montpelie: its penabled, wacom, thats about all I know.
[05:09] <harriseldon> wuxia explain what you mean by file caches
[05:09] <amenado> wuxia-> come again?

[05:09] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, that part doesn't really matter except to router, tkip ans ascii are fine
[05:09] <wuxia> harriseldon , amenado : certain recently accessed files are cached in memory right? if so, how can I flush taht cache
[05:09] <karkin> montpelie: no idea.
[05:09] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> its a radio, so any thing that can cause the radio tx/rx to fail..
[05:09] <montpelie> which tpc model is it?

[05:10] <wers> amenado, his windows pc is connected to his usb wireless internet (which has no Ubuntu driver). i dont think it can be connected to a router
[05:10] <cdm10> wers: That's more of a Windows question than an Ubuntu question... but, in any case, I'd recommend buying a router, which is a device that will allow him to share the connection between the two PCs without any complicated software setup.

[05:10] <redwhitewald1> what do i put in wpa pre-shared key blank?
[05:10] <karkin> montpelie: whats the low down n it?
[05:10] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, just remember what you choose
[05:11] <montpelie> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-handheld-25/howto-get-your-gateway-or-finepoint-pen-working-497879/page5.html, take a look a this KARKIN, it might work for you
[05:11] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 you did not cd into the Module directory first
[05:11] <amenado> wers, by another router, and use the router to share the connectivity
[05:11] <redwhitewald1> SeaPhor: it has to be a certain length doen't it?
[05:11] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 please use cd Module then press enter
[05:11] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: it is supposed to be eth1, but according to the utilities, eth1 doesn't exist
[05:11] <wers> cdm10: it's an axesstel usb wireless internet
[05:11] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> try  sudo /etc/init.d/neworking restart
[05:12] <SeaPhor> is there a "generate" button near by or something like?
[05:12] <wers> amenado, the two computers should be connected to the same router? after that, how can the connection be shared?
[05:12] <cdm10> wers: Ah, okay. Well, Windows has something called Internet Connection Sharing, which should allow that to happen, but I have never used it. This is more of a Windows question than an Ubuntu question.
[05:12] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, is there a "generate" button near by or something like?
[05:12] <montpelie> karkin, this one seems to be more accurate
[05:12] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: how do i get back to the cd module?
[05:12] <montpelie> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=590747
[05:12] <amenado> wers thats the job of the router
[05:12] <cdm10> amenado: it sounds like the internet connection is some sort of cellular wireless connection
[05:12] <juannicolas> Hi, I'm having some problems with winbind. I'm getting: gateway winbindd[4089]:   Possible deadlock: Trying to lookup SID S-1-22-2-1001 with passdb backend
[05:12] <cdm10> amenado: and the only way the user has of accessing it is via a USB adapter to the Windows PC
[05:12] <harriseldon> wuxia what do you mean then by cached files? I do not know of any file caching
[05:13] <wers> amenado, the thing is, the usb modem cant be connected to the router
[05:13] <j4w4> cdm10 you are the man!! The GUI way to make links is much easier. Thanks. And my Steam is loading and working.
[05:13] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 cd is a command to type in the terminal
[05:13] <cdm10> j4w4: glad I could help :)
[05:13] <amenado> cdm10-> is you and wers same person?
[05:13] <cdm10> amenado: um, not at all
[05:13] <karkin> montpelie: I dont have  a /etc/serial.conf
[05:13] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: I tried it, but still "eth1      No such device"
[05:13] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 type cd Module to change the directory to the Module directory. It is case sensitive
[05:13] <amenado> cdm10-> oh okay
[05:13] <montpelie> create it then, karkin
[05:13] <mookinator1313> yea, im back at the original directory root@comp-pwnage:~#
[05:14] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> is it ethernet or wireless?
[05:14] <montpelie> and put the proper uart and port values on it, dont forget the baud_rate if needed
[05:14] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: yea, im back at the original directory root@comp-pwnage:~#
[05:14] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: it is wireless
[05:14] <apallo> my network manager thingy is still gone....
[05:14] <amenado> wers-> then please visit #windows to get help on sharing internet access via windows
[05:14] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 type cd ~/source/rt2500-cvs-2008051921/Module and hit enter
[05:15] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: ok, now what?
[05:15] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> what is the wifi card? chip for the wifi?
[05:15] <redwhitewald1> SeaPhor: no "generate" button. but i just changed from hexdecimal to ascii
[05:15] <montpelie> I guess you Karkin, already edited the xorg.conf file appending input devices and server layouts
[05:15] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, something that geberates a key for you?
[05:15] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 step 5.2 again
[05:15] <montpelie> and installed the wacom-tools package
[05:15] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, something that generates a key for you?
[05:15] <karkin> montpelie: I installed wcom tools...  i have a /dev/input/wacom
[05:15] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: it is an intel wireless card for a laptop, I'm not sure which version
[05:16] <redwhitewald1> another question. I'm on wireless router BUT am on WIRED connection. I'm sharing my internet wirelessly with Someone. How can I monitor my wireless internet (bandwidth, URLs visited)?
[05:16] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: its doing something, what that is... i dont know
[05:16] <karkin> montpelie: I have no wacom driver in my kernel though
[05:16] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, sorry, typing in total darkness here, monitor is only light
[05:16] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 it is compiling!! That is a very good thing. It is the greatest part about open source software. Enjoy the moment.
[05:16] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> well you can find out from your laptop manual, or search in google?
[05:17] <redwhitewald1> Seaphor, ha. why no light?
[05:17] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: lol thanks, ill brb, i need to reboot
[05:17] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, sick kid, in my bed
[05:17] <calm> harriseldon: Ah, it looks like hdparm -I is what I want. Thanks!
[05:17] <redwhitewald1> oh
[05:17] <redwhitewald1> sorry
[05:17] <harriseldon> mookinator1313 did you run step 5.3?
[05:18] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, so lights are off
[05:18] <harriseldon> clam glad I could help. The gentoo wiki has a lot of good command line help
[05:18] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: the device manager says "PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection (Dell B130 laptop integrated WLAN)"
[05:19] <iddo> how to have evolution use keyring ?
[05:19] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, no worries, mostly allergies, but needs to be close to me
[05:19] <wuxia> how do i edit fstab to have /tmp use tmpfs?
[05:19] <montpelie> karkin, go ahead and install it then
[05:19] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> you have rebooted? you can view what your system detects at boot via dmesg
[05:20] <montpelie> first off do "dmesg |grep ttyS" at your terminal
[05:20] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: I have rebooted
[05:20] <montpelie> it should come up with some  irq values
[05:20] <harriseldon> wuxia http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=119975
[05:21] <SeaPhor> redwhitewald1, didn't i say ascii to begin with??? lol
[05:21] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: im back, and still have 5mbps for internet
[05:21] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> and you typed dmesg  to find out if your wireless nic is detected?
[05:22] <wuxia> harriseldon: how do I specify a max size for the tmpfs?
[05:22] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: one minute....I just piped it to a file and am about to search it
[05:22] <cypha> i've just installed ubuntu, and i'm on a train...i'd like to get the wireless network to work in ubuntu so i can make use of my 5 hours on here to finish setting up ubuntu properly....but i need internet and help files for that (i'm currently on windows, btw),...can someone help me get it going?
[05:22] <cypha> i'm running hardy
[05:23] <mookinator1313> harriseldon: yea, its still at 5mbps
[05:23] <amenado> rolando-ve  why didnt you go for OLPC instead of the intel copycat?
[05:24] <zChris> cypha: what wireless ?
[05:24] <cypha> i have a built in wireless adapter
[05:24] <cypha> broadcomm i believe
[05:25] <cypha> yup, broadcom zchris
[05:25] <zChris> cypha: download this guide -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear , and the proper deb files for your card, then mount your partition in ubuntu and read the guide and install deb file :)
[05:26] <cypha> how can i download?
[05:26] <cypha> i don't have internet
[05:26] <zChris> cypha: but you have it now ?
[05:26] <juannicolas> on windows
[05:26] <cypha> yeah, i'm on windows
[05:26] <giloth> does compiz use opengl for the effects?
[05:26] <SeaPhor> cypha, you are here now?
[05:26] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: does this mean anything? "[   26.830800] ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.2.2kmprq"
[05:26] <zChris> cypha: download in windows and mount that drive in ubntu then you can access the files
[05:26] <nickrud> giloth yes
[05:26] <giloth> hmmm stupid ati cards and their opengl issues >.>
[05:27] <cypha> k...i'll do that
[05:27] <cypha> btw, how can i access files within the my documents folder in linux?
[05:27] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> yes, it uses ipw2200 drivers
[05:27] <zChris> cypha: you mount the correct partitione
[05:27] <cypha> it always shows stuff within my documents as blank from the mounted partition
[05:28] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: okay, then yes, it seems to detect it, as there is another line that says "ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network"
[05:28] <zChris> cypha: well save the stuff in c:\ then ?
[05:28] <juannicolas> cypha you have to mount it with user privileges
[05:28] <juannicolas> create a folder with user prvileges
[05:28] <cypha> ahh, k...so just use sudo?
[05:28] <cypha> i thought i had done that actually
[05:29] <juannicolas> in a folder withing the user you are using in ubuntu
[05:29] <montpelie> need to use chmod to set proper privileges cypha
[05:29] <zChris> cypha: btw you are sure it just dont work out of the box?
[05:29] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> type  iwconfig to see if your wifi is active
[05:29] <Jagged|NZ> Is there an easy way to customise the widgets in Firefox, my theme makes the default widgets hard to read in FF3
[05:29] <cypha> well, i don't see any "available wireless networks"
[05:29] <nickrud> cypha how had you been mounting it? You should be able to simply see it under places, if ubuntu recognized it properly
[05:29] <cypha> but i could juts be retarded
[05:30] <cypha> ...and side note, sometimes i see the ntfs partition on my desktop, and sometimes i don't...why is it random?
[05:30] <cypha> i didn't really mount it before
[05:30] <zChris> i think this is the correct guide for you cypha
[05:30] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: "lo        no wireless extensions. | eth0      no wireless extensions."
[05:30] <zChris> cypha: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766560
[05:30] <cypha> see what tlrokeutoetn just said?
[05:31] <cypha> i was following some offline help file in ubuntu...and it said that whne i ran some command in tnermal
[05:31] <cypha> terminal
[05:31] <cypha> zchris: thanks!
[05:31] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> can you use the network manager to enable it ?
[05:31] <cypha> that looks perfect
[05:31] <cypha> can i save onto my linux partition from vista?
[05:32] <zChris> cypha: just be sure to save the files you need on your desktop
[05:32] <cypha> (not on my desktop)
[05:32] <cypha> (that's priviledged area)
[05:32] <zChris> cypha: what filesystem did you use?
[05:32] <cypha> c:\ i'll use
[05:32] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: I use wicd as a network manager, and that doesn't have an option to disable networks
[05:32] <cypha> vista has ntfs...linux has ext3
[05:32] <harriseldon> cypha http://www.fs-driver.org/
[05:32] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> paste in pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces file
[05:33] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: (network-manager gave me problems such as not reconnecting to the network on resume from standby)
[05:33] <cypha> that's ext2 harriseldon
[05:33] <harriseldon> cypha read the faq
[05:33] <___Alex___> is gutsy or feisty more stable than hardy?
[05:33] <teddy> gutsy is
[05:33] <zChris> cypha: its for ext3 aswell
[05:34] <cypha> woops, gotcha harris...thanks
[05:34] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: It's short enough: "auto lo | iface lo inet loopback" | = newline
[05:34] <harriseldon> mrnotproper great name. lol. It takes me back to the make mrproper days
[05:34] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: that is what wicd says it should be
[05:35] <montpelie> hey boys any way I can set a password for a folder, so that access can be granted by inputting it
[05:35] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> then you are missing the entry for your wireless, insert it in manually
[05:36] <___Alex___> is it worth re-installing ubuntu to downgrade from hardy to gutsy? or should I just wait for hardy to have all it's bugs worked out?
[05:36] <Dillizar> how can i set a program to autorun when i sign in?
[05:36] <montpelie> gnome session dillizar
[05:36] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: what line should I add?
[05:36] <nickrud> Dillizar put it in system->prefs->session

[05:37] <___Alex___> sorry for repeating, but is it worth re-installing ubuntu to downgrade from hardy to gutsy? or should I just wait for hardy to have all it's bugs worked out?
[05:37] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> something like iface wlan0 inet dhcp
[05:37] <gavru> http://www.traffpro.ru - project for russian
[05:37] <montpelie> hey anyway to set up a password protected folder?????
[05:37] <zChris> ___Alex___: thats really up to you
[05:37] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> something like iface wlan0 inet dhcp ;  wireless-essid yourESSID
[05:38] <Dillizar> 10x nickrud you are the best
[05:38] <Dillizar> :D
[05:38] <zChris> montpelie: i dont think you can do that outofthebox
[05:38] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> please man iterfaces for samples
[05:38] <lab> 123
[05:38] <lab> 356
[05:38] <montpelie> what should I do then
[05:38] <lab> 3515136
[05:38] <montpelie> zchris
[05:38] <lab> hfdeyjt
[05:38] <zChris> montpelie: depends on the contex
[05:38] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: thanks
[05:38] <nickrud> montpelie usually you would use group permissions for that, so anyone in the right group can read it after logging in.
[05:38] <montpelie> would I have to encrypt the folder???
[05:39] <Pav5088> Is it possible to set configuration options for a package install from a script?
[05:39] <mephistofun> is there a way to reinstall packages while completely wiping their configuration and data files (i.e. aptitude purge followed by aptitude install).. i try to purge the packages before reinstalling them but aptitude wants to uninstall a bunch of other packages that i don't want to touch
[05:39] <montpelie> right, but in case the folder in question is my HOme folder
[05:39] <zChris> montpelie: do you want to hide the folder from a user that uses the same account as you ? or from another user on the system ?
[05:39] <Dillizar> nickrud: how can i put some other effects
[05:39] <montpelie> right, a user using the same account
[05:40] <nickrud> montpelie you can make the folder rwxrwx--- , add the person you your group
[05:40] <montpelie> using a different one, no permissions are granted by default to access other users' folders
[05:40] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: how do I get it to reread the interfaces file?
[05:40] <nickrud> Dillizar what effects?
[05:40] <klos> anyone can help me out with dv editing ??? im looking for some material like animated backgrounds or music that i could use to create a little video
[05:40] <zChris> nickrud: that wont work since they are using the same account
[05:41] <Dillizar> visual effects nickrud
[05:41] <nickrud> zChris ah, missed that line. not red :)
[05:41] <amenado> tlrokeutoetn-> sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[05:41] <zChris> nickrud: :)
[05:41] <gavru> join #gentoo-ru
[05:41] <S4nD3r> I have a problem... Everytime I turn on my notebook, I need to run in recovery mode, run fix video configuration (xfix)... HOw solve it to normal mode??
[05:41] <nickrud> Dillizar install compizconfig-settings-manager , then in prefs->advanced desktop settings. #compiz-fusion (if someone is around) will show you all the goodies
[05:41] <montpelie> chmod 770 file,  you mean nickrud??'
[05:42] <alecwh> !flash
[05:42] <nickrud> montpelie yes, but you're both using the same account, from what I was just told. Give them their own account, then set up a separate folder, like /shared to share stuff.
[05:42] <tlrokeutoetn> amenado: thanks for your time, but it still isn't working. It's too late at night for me to keep doing this, so I'm signing off now
[05:42] <montpelie> so that only the owner and the group get full access to it
[05:42] <nickrud> montpelie that's the principle, yes
[05:43] <zChris> nickrud: 06:39 < montpelie> right, a user using the same account |:)
[05:43] <mephistofun> is there a way to tell aptitude to ignore dependencies when installing/uninstalling a package
[05:43] <Flannel> mephistofun: no.  That defeats the purpose of package management
[05:43] <Dillizar> how can i install compizconfig-settings-manager nickrud
[05:44] <montpelie> right, as I got some compromising pics in home folder , I dont want my girlfried to see them right..... that's the issue
[05:44] <alecwh> Hello, I'm using Hardy, and I installed libflashsupport with Flash so I can have sound with PulseAudio. However, it's VERY unstable. Firefox crashes every other time I load a page with flash! Has this been fixed?
[05:44] <rrr> hi
[05:44] <S4nD3r> how to setup videocard as default, used in instalation????
[05:44] <mephistofun> flannel, yes, but aptitude wont let me do what i want to do.  i want to completely purge the packages and reinstall them.  it seems like aptitude reinstall leaves the configuration and data files behind
[05:44] <zChris> montpelie: ahahahaha, well i suggest you to hide it with . prefix then :)
[05:44] <nickrud> mephistofun you can use dpkg -i --force-confnew /var/cache/apt/archive/<package-file, that should force a replacement of the config files.
[05:44] <montpelie> and of course if I set up an additional account for her, she'll get pissed off
[05:44] <montpelie> ok zchris
[05:44] <montpelie> good idea
[05:45] <montpelie> haha
[05:45] <mephistofun> ok thanks nickrud
[05:45] <nickrud> montpelie heh. make a hidden folder in /var maybe
[05:45] <lab> ok
[05:45] <lab> i think it's a good ideal
[05:45] <montpelie> hahahah, kk
[05:45] <montpelie> sound good
[05:46] <lab> where are you come from
[05:46]  * nickrud thinks <momentarily> of tracing montpelie and mailing his girlfriend
[05:47] <montpelie> hahaha
[05:47] <montpelie> I'd appreciate that nickrud
[05:48] <montpelie> devil made flesh
[05:48] <nickrud> my it's quiet tonight. I haven't been around for a bit, is hardy that stable for most?
[05:49] <Ontolog> I'm trying to compile something and I get /usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory
[05:49] <Ontolog> Which package should I install to solve this problem?
[05:49] <nickrud> find crt1.o
[05:49] <montpelie> which package are u trying to cimpule ontolog
[05:49] <nickrud> !find crt1.o
[05:49] <montpelie> compile
[05:50] <tom_> Is there any way to boot a 32 bit kernel with some kind of HIGH MEM option, so it'll fully use 4gb without having to recompile?
[05:50] <nickrud> Ontolog probably libc6-dev is what you want
[05:52] <rrr> ÓÐ»áÖÐÎÄµÄÅóÓÑÂð£¿
