[00:00] <^_oo_^> barslow: try mplayer -vo x11 <file> for instance -- see if it plays without the tint ;P im no expert on mplayer though so there could be a ton of easier ways
[00:00] <ArthurArchnix> does kino have an irc channel?
[00:01] <sdferfx> have zombie process. ps xal tells me its parent process id is 1 (init). I'm not really comfortable issuing kill -9 on init. Is there a way to kill this defunct process?
[00:02] <barslow> yea that worked ^_oo_^
[00:02] <barslow> so how do i keep it that way?
[00:02] <Tramp> sdferfx: no. init should take care of it after a while. You can't kill a zombie and it's not necessary either
[00:02] <awmcclain> I'm trying to run adduser from a script, so I don't want any interactive stuff. Is there any way to do that?
[00:02] <jonnyro> I'm trying to compile a kernel module, but i'm having horrific problems.  I keep getting undefined symbol register_chrdev
[00:02] <jonnyro> when trying to insert that module
[00:03] <sdferfx> Tramp, firefox won't let me start more instances of it without first killing zombie firefox-bin. tried to kill the startup scripts but they don't accept
[00:03] <sdferfx> or, they die, but respawn
[00:03] <^_oo_^> barslow: well, smplayer obviously changed some sort of intenral record of the tint, hence the problem x11 is a different "output" than xv (the default), i guess either uninstalling smplayer and restarting X would be the solution. or rather, it was what fixed the probem for me, might be different for you :) sorry hope it helps
[00:03] <Tramp> sdferfx: who respawns them?
[00:04] <Jordan_U> sdferfx, So you are sure that the firefox-bin is just a zombie?
[00:04] <ghfreak51> hey
[00:04] <Dr_Link> Alright, BinaryFu, I did that, but now ... after reinstalling WINE, the WINE menu won't appear in Applications, not even after using Edit Menu!
[00:04] <Dr_Link> (sorry to repeat myself)
[00:05] <ghfreak51> how do i install ubuntu from BusyBox??
[00:05] <KalEl> hi... is there any support/dev channel for ubuntu-hardy?
[00:05] <Jordan_U> ghfreak51, In other words you have booted the LiveCD and are only getting a busybox shell?
[00:06] <ghfreak51> yes
[00:06] <minimec> KalEl: /join #ubuntu+1
[00:06] <sdferfx> Tramp, Jordan_U, yes, firefox-bin was the only thing listed defunct. Tramp, unsure, I tried to kill it. In any case, init has now cleaned up zombie firefox-bin, so all is well again. Thanks everyone. : )
[00:06] <KalEl> thanks, minimec
[00:06] <Tramp> sdferfx: and don't waste your time trying to kill zombies.
[00:08] <Jordan_U> ghfreak51, Have you tried the alternate install CD?
[00:08] <ghfreak51> jordan
[00:08] <Jordan_U> ghfreak51, Actually, first, have you tested the integrity of the CD?
[00:08] <sdferfx> ok Tramp, thanks. : 0
[00:09] <ghfreak51> not yet.. all i did was put the iso i downloaded from the ubuntu site on the cd and i'm trying to install it
[00:09] <Dr_Link> Does ANYONE know how to get the WINE folder back in the Applications menu?
[00:09] <Dr_Link> Edit Menus doesn't do a thing.
[00:09] <Dr_Link> I just reinstalled.
[00:09] <Dr_Link> (just reinstalled WINE)
[00:10] <chatan> I just reinstall 8.04
[00:10] <artenius> when I look at my OS info in shell, it says I'm running i686, what does this mean? it looks very wrong to me.
[00:10] <shawn__> ddoes anyone know the wine channle
[00:10] <chatan> no wrong
[00:11] <artenius> Shawn__ #wine-hq
[00:11] <artenius> well I don't think I'm on an i686
[00:11] <cheesebob> How can I get my email from Outlook to evolution mail?
[00:11] <artenius> This is an AMD64 X2 4200+
[00:11] <chatan> oh~~
[00:11] <artenius> wouldn't that ead as i386?
[00:12] <chatan> ur os is 32bit?
[00:12] <artenius> I'm getting confused
[00:12] <artenius> yes
[00:12] <chatan> so it is
[00:12] <artenius> ubuntu gutsy 32bit
[00:12] <ghfreak51> i just checked the cd for defects
[00:12] <chatan> AMD 64 can run on 32bit os
[00:12] <ghfreak51> it just came up with busybox again
[00:13] <artenius> chatan, it is right or wrong?
[00:13] <chatan> right
[00:13] <ross`> what packages do i apt-get to play dvd's
[00:13] <artenius> ok
[00:13] <chatan> because ur os is 32bit
[00:13] <artenius> chatan, yeah I didn't want to mess with 64bit yet, I heard there were issues still.
[00:13] <Stroganoff> ross`: http://www.medibuntu.org/ ... libdvdcss2
[00:13] <chatan> yes
[00:13] <starscalling> zomg eh
[00:13] <artenius> !64
[00:13] <ubotu> AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/jv6tc for more information.
[00:14] <ross`> there is no package called libdvdcss2
[00:14] <ross`> do i need to add a repository?
[00:14] <Aw0L> what's the best way to install kernel 2.6.24?
[00:14] <legend2440> Dr_Link: when you uninstalled wine did you delete the hidden file in home directory?
[00:14] <willis_> !dvd
[00:14] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs

[00:14] <starscalling> what could cause that
[00:14] <ross`> which link?
[00:15] <Stroganoff> ross`: yes, add the medibuntu repo
[00:15] <ross`> i have been told 3
[00:15] <ross`> what is the medibuntu repo
[00:15] <Pelo> starscalling, will  not boot from hdd ?

[00:16] <barslow> it happen after i installed SMplayer... I've since removed it
[00:16] <Pelo> barslow, are you user it's not the file
[00:16] <barslow> yes
[00:16] <barslow> ive tried 10 different files
[00:17] <Pelo> barslow, how did you remove smplayer ?  you probably need to purge it as well,  sudo apt-get remove pacakgename --purge
[00:17] <artenius> chatan, so what version of ubuntu does it say for you? i686?
[00:17] <willis_> i have NEVER had smplayer work for me  - in like the last 2 releases..
[00:17] <KalEl> hi... what is scrollkeeper? curious because from time to time it takes up a good chunk of my cpu
[00:17] <barslow> hmm lemme try
[00:17] <chatan> artenius:i686
[00:18] <barslow> nope still orange
[00:18] <Pelo> KalEl, you can check the definition of it in synaptic,  it has smoething to do with documents,  I think it migh be a search indexer but I am not sure
[00:18] <KalEl> ok, thanks
[00:18] <^_oo_^> barslow did you try restarting X as i suggested?
[00:18] <TaRDy> is anybody familiar with soundKonverter?
[00:19] <TaRDy> i asked last night for a good wma -> mp3/m4a converter however i forgot to write it down
[00:19] <Pelo> barslow, try and so a search for smplayer , see if anyting is left on your hdd that might be causeing it , also check in synaptic for what it,s dependencies are, remvoe those as well

[00:20] <chatan> cheesebob:desktop-i386
[00:20] <ccharles`> cheesebob: the Desktop CD should work fine.
[00:20] <ghfreak51> so any ideas with how to successfully install ubuntu without busybox coming up?
[00:20] <cheesebob> chatan, aren't the core 2 duo processors 64 bit though?
[00:20] <Pelo> ghfreak51, use the alternate install cd,  it is more forgiving
[00:20] <willis_> ghfreak51,  try the alternative installer cd,  ive also had an odd machine that wouldent isntall a ubuntu disk, but xubuntu installed fine..
[00:20] <ghfreak51> where do i get that .. i'm a newb
[00:20] <chatan>  cheesebob: u 'd beeter choose 32 bit
[00:20] <nomic> ola ubuntu people
[00:20] <Tann> Hello Everyone
[00:20] <cheesebob> y?
[00:21] <nomic> :-D
[00:21] <Pelo> ghfreak51, from the ubuntu.com site,  check the box just below the download button for the alt-cd
[00:21] <ghfreak51> thanks!

[00:21] <chatan> cheesebob: many application program cant run on 64 bit os
[00:21] <nomic> on ubuntu
[00:22] <dimedo> hey there, is there any way to script (simulate) mouse and keyboard inputs for xserver
[00:22] <ccharles`> nomic: a "screen cleaner"?
[00:22] <nomic> took me round about 23 minutes
[00:22] <Pelo> nomic, screencleaner ? as in some chemical to clean your screen with ?
[00:22] <nomic> no i just want to brag about my dual head setup
[00:22] <Tann> How would I bridge two network connections so that i can use the internet from one connection on the other connection.
[00:22] <cheesebob> chatan, that's lame i thought they just ran as 32 bit
[00:22] <nomic> hi pelo :-D
[00:22] <ccharles`> nomic: like a screenshot program?
[00:22] <Pelo> Tann, try reformulating your question
[00:23] <InspectorCluseau> Nomad_, try 600 sandpaper or acetone......
[00:23] <TaRDy> pelo, soundconverter or soundkonverter?
[00:23] <Pelo> ccharles`, he justwantted to brag about his dual monitors
[00:23] <nomic> well i have been thinking a lot about the fact i at least have to set up a screen scraper soon
[00:23] <Pelo> TaRDy, soundconverter
[00:23] <isleshocky77> Does it make any sense that when I type who it says 2 users but only shows one?
[00:23] <InspectorCluseau> nomic,  try 600 sandpaper or acetone......
[00:23] <ross`> what else do i need besides libdvdcss2 for dvds
[00:23] <Pelo> TaRDy, it's a gnome app,  there might be a kde one with konverter in it but i don'T know
[00:23] <ccharles`> Pelo: gotcha :-).
[00:24] <Pelo> ross`, it's all in the link
[00:24] <barslow> pelo, i checked around in the video player forums
[00:24] <Pelo> !dvd > ross`  check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[00:24] <barslow> they reffered me back here
[00:24] <ross`> Pelo: not really
[00:24] <ross`> i looked
[00:24]  * nomic they told me graphics was just a set of codes
[00:24] <nomic> am used to cga
[00:24] <Tann> How do I bridge two connections
[00:24] <TaRDy> thank you pelo
[00:24] <nomic> :(
[00:24] <Pelo> barslow, I realy hae no idea how to solve this problem  maybe try looking it up in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[00:24] <nomic> thinking why just i don't use the framebuffer
[00:25] <nomic> but i have to program graphics cards why
[00:25] <barslow> i did but what should i search for, "orangey video"
[00:25] <Pelo> TaRDy, do you mean use one computer's internet on another, or use two seperate internet connections on the same comp to speed up your transfers ?
[00:25] <^4nDr3s> og
[00:25] <nomic> well i alwas liked the concept of multiplex pelo
[00:25] <Pelo> barslow, bad colors , maybe , weird colors,  color problem etc
[00:25] <nomic> or parallel programming
[00:25] <^_oo_^> barslow / Pelo: i believe restarting X would fix it (as it did so for me when i had the same problem after installing smplayer) not sure if barslow has tried though :p
[00:25] <barslow> whats X?
[00:26] <barslow> i asked earlier
[00:26] <nomic> the windows management and graphics card management system barslow
[00:26] <chatan> !X
[00:26] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[00:26] <TaRDy> pelo are you referring to an old question i asked?  I have not asked a networking one in a while
[00:26] <Pelo> barslow, x is the window manager,  crtl alt backspace to restart it , it will kill all your aps however
[00:26] <bsdnewb07> guys ive changed the details for a user in limits.conf to allow them to have nofiles to 2048 .. but when i try to boot the ircd it still says 1024 is the limit
[00:26] <Pelo> TaRDy, probably the wrong nick
[00:26] <bsdnewb07> any ideas?#
[00:26] <TaRDy> nvm pelo, you were referring to Tann
[00:26] <barslow> ill giv it a whirl
[00:26] <bsdnewb07> ive recompiled the ircd to
[00:27] <ross`> i installed libdvdcss2 and libdvdread3 or whatever
[00:27] <Pelo> Tann, do you mean use one computer's internet on another, or use two seperate internet connections on the same comp to speed up your transfers ?
[00:27] <ross`> and i still can't play dvds with totem or mplayer
[00:27] <^_oo_^> Pelo / barslow: since its only xv thats been affected (i assume) and its not a permanent settig (since it reverted to normal for me)
[00:27] <Pelo> ross`, you can't play dvd's in totem,  try xine
[00:27] <ross`> o.O
[00:27] <ross`> ok..
[00:27] <ross`> ?
[00:27] <ross`> xine package?
[00:28] <Pelo> ross`, you can try and play  the vob files in totem , that will work but not the dvd itself
[00:28] <ross`> nevermind
[00:28] <Pelo> ross`, sudo apt-get install xine
[00:28] <ross`> apt-get install gxine worked
[00:28] <ross`> xine doesnt exist
[00:28] <mouseboyx> is it possible to block ips from pinging or connecting to you? thru tcp?
[00:28] <Tann> Pelo: I want to use one computer's internet on another
[00:29] <bsdnewb07> guys ive changed the details for a user in limits.conf to allow them to have nofiles to 2048 .. but when i try to boot the ircd it still says 1024 is the limit .. ive recompiled the ircd but nothing..
[00:29] <Pelo> Tann, ok , I think you need to use firestarter to do that,  but I'm not sure,  you might want to try asking in #networking
[00:29] <legend2440> ross`: its xine-ui
[00:30] <ross`> oh
[00:30] <amenado> Tann-> what do you want done? share an internet connection?
[00:30] <mouseboyx> nvm http://blog.taragana.com/index.php/archive/how-to-block-ip-addresses-on-linux-server/
[00:30] <ross`> cancel gxine?https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html told me to get gxine
[00:30] <xsystemx> No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found. ? Any ideas?
[00:30] <Pelo> amenado, that is exactly what he wants
[00:31] <Pelo> xsystemx, do yoyu see the volume controler icon in the top pannel ?
[00:31] <amenado> Pelo-> oh okay, simple then..assuming he has his second computer connected to the first in a subnet
[00:31] <Tann> amenado: yes
[00:31] <xsystemx> Pelo - thats the error I get when I open the volume controller
[00:32] <Pelo> xsystemx,  right click,  prefs , select alsa
[00:32] <amenado> Tann-> does your first computer (lets call that as gateway) have to two ethernet interfaces?
[00:32] <caffe_espresso> I need some help, can anyone help me?
[00:32] <thomaslee> This might be an apt-specific question, but is there a way to prevent a certain package from being upgraded if I've made a custom .deb from the ubuntu source of that package?
[00:32] <xsystemx> Pelo - I can't, I get an error
[00:32] <Pelo> xsystemx,  try opening the terminal and typing alsamixer
[00:32] <Netham45> what is the default runlevel for a fresh Ubuntu install?
[00:32] <Pelo> caffe_espresso, we need a question
[00:32] <clarity> hey, i just got a new high powered wifi card ubiquiti src and i can't change the txpower to greater than 16dBm... I believe it goes up to 26dBm. I've tried iwconfig ath1 txpower 20dBm... is there anything else I can do?
[00:33] <thomaslee> (specifically, I've hacked focus-on-first-show behavior out of metacity because it's been bloody annoying)
[00:33] <amenado> Netham45-> level 2-3
[00:33] <xsystemx> Pelo - The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you do not have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you do not have a sound card configured.
[00:33] <Netham45> ok
[00:33] <salem> hi
[00:33] <Tann> amenado: I have one ethernet interface and one wireless interface
[00:33] <xsystemx> Pelo - ok, its open, what next?
[00:33] <caffe_espresso> pelo: i got a problem with the video in ubuntu. When i play a video, any kind of video, in window mode the video goes on-off
[00:33] <xsystemx> Pelo - Alsamixer that is through terminal
[00:34] <Pelo> xsystemx, try selecting a device from there
[00:34] <Netham45> how do I make my Ubuntu computer go to a static IP as opposed to getting a new DHCP one every boot?
[00:34] <xsystemx> Pelo - device is already selected?
[00:34] <amenado> Tann-> how would you like your second computer connected to the 1st (acting as gateway)  ? btw is your connection then to the internet is via that ethernet port? or wireless?
[00:34] <Pelo> xsystemx, yes,  no caps
[00:34] <Fryguy--> Netham45: either edit /etc/network/interfaces, or use nm-applet to manually configure your connection
[00:35] <Pelo> xsystemx,  in the terminal, type  lspci , see if you can locate your soundcard
[00:35] <Netham45> is nm-applet a gui?
[00:35] <Netham45> I'm at a CLI
[00:35] <Fryguy--> Netham45: so then edit /etc/network/interfaces
[00:35] <Netham45> ok
[00:35] <Netham45> what would I put in therE?
[00:35] <Pelo> Netham45, nm-applet is in the top panel usualy , little network icon, two monitors
[00:35] <Netham45> Pelo, no gui.
[00:35] <Fryguy--> Netham45: the settings appropriate for your manually configured connection.  Read the manpage
[00:35] <Netham45> settin' up a server, hopefully.
[00:35] <moose> hello people
[00:35] <Tann> amenado: My gateway connects to the internet through a wireless router. Could the second computer connect directly to the other, or should I use a network switch?
[00:36] <dingweb_max> anyone have any experience putting ubuntu on a dell blade?
[00:36] <moose> does anyone here know how to load games in DOSBOX?
[00:36] <xsystemx> Pelo - The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you do not have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you do not have a sound card configured.
[00:36] <Tann> amenado: by other, i meant the gateway
[00:36] <Pelo> caffe_espresso, I don'T know hat you mean by video mode going on off
[00:36] <willis_> moose,  i make a directory for each game, cd to that dir, run dosbox, assign the C: to be that current dir.. run the game/installer
[00:36] <Pelo> xsystemx,  I read that earlier,   open a terminal and type  lspci , see if you see your audio card listed
[00:37] <xsystemx> Pelo - 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)
[00:37] <amenado> Tann-> you have to use the ethernet port of that gateway then,  use a hub in between your gateway and your second pc
[00:37] <moose> the installer.exe of the game rite?
[00:37] <caffe_espresso> pelo: i see alternating the video and a black image, like a neon lamp... :)
[00:37] <Pelo> xsystemx,  ok , go in to menu > system > admin > users,   find your username in there check it's properties see that you have permission to use sound devices
[00:37] <moose> willis, i made the C root directory and everything
[00:37] <amenado> Tann then its as easy as   echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward;  and...
[00:37] <willis_> moose,  totally depends on the game.
[00:37] <Netham45> bah
[00:38] <Netham45> my "server" crashed opening vi... :(
[00:38] <Pelo> caffe_espresso,  you mean a stroboscope,   I,ve never heard that one before, what player ?
[00:38] <willis_> moose,   I keep each dos game in its own dir. I have dosbox set to assign C: to the dir the game is in.

[00:38] <Lasivian> I feel so dirty, I just applied for a job with Microsoft
[00:38] <moose> willis: so you just run the installer.exe
[00:38] <moose> of that game?
[00:38]  * Pelo looks at  Lasivian  and decides to get that tar and feathers
[00:38] <willis_> moose,  logicially.. yes.. if the game has an installer.exe you would run that... try it and see?
[00:38] <Netham45> willis_, "sence" makes no sense.  I think is relative to the video card, I've an ati x1600. It happens also in the video effect when i play music...
[00:39] <Netham45> meanie
[00:39] <Carbonflux> you can use the money you make working for MS to support open source though Lasivian if you feel guilty ;)
[00:39] <xsystemx> Pelo - I think that was the prob, do I need to restart any services?
[00:39] <Pelo> caffe_espresso, do you have the destkop effect ( compiz) enabled ?
[00:40] <caffe_espresso> pelo: yes
[00:40] <Lasivian> Carbonflux: one of the items on the job description was "Employee will promote a positive image of Microsoft"
[00:40] <Pelo> xsystemx, restarting X would not be too much but I don't knwo if you need to
[00:40] <Netham45> well, this is annoying, vi crashed my server...
[00:40] <dingweb_max> can you use vim?
[00:40] <Fryguy--> Netham45: i doubt it
[00:40] <Carbonflux> Lasivian, lol.
[00:40] <moose> willis: it says illegal command
[00:40] <Jordan_U> Netham45, How can vim crash a server?
[00:40] <xsystemx> Pelo - brb
[00:40] <moose> am i using the right dos command?
[00:40] <Pelo> caffe_espresso, turn off the effect,  see if the problem still occurs,  if it doesn't , go and ask in #compiz which  pluggin you need to turn off to solve the prolbme and have the other effect enabled
[00:41] <Netham45> I typed in, "vi /etc/network/interfaces" and about 2 minutes later, I timed out.
[00:41] <Netham45> now I can't reconnect
[00:41] <willis_> moose,  i would guess you are doing somthing totally wrong.  Note that dosbox does NOT run windows games. only dosgames
[00:41] <dingweb_max> were you root or sudo?
[00:41] <willis_> !tab | moose
[00:41] <Netham45> I was root
[00:41] <Pelo> dingweb_max, just before the command in a terminal
[00:41] <ubotu> moose: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[00:41] <caffe_espresso> pelo: tnx that 's the problem, i go in #compiz
[00:41] <caffe_espresso> pelo:tnx again

[00:42] <Netham45> the server stopped responding locally, too
[00:42] <xsystemx> Pelo - works, but sudo apt-get is not working anymore?
[00:42] <Tann> amenado: I'm not sure i got what you were trying to say
[00:42] <Fryguy--> Netham45: sounds like you've got some hardware issues then
[00:42] <xsystemx> Pelo - thx
[00:42] <Netham45> probabally
[00:42] <Pelo> xsystemx, you need to sudo apt-get install package name , not jsut sudo apt-get

[00:43] <snoopamk> hola

[00:44] <theunixgeek> How can I get my resolution up to 1280 x 1024? It's not available in either Screen Resolution nor Screens and Graphics
[00:44] <cheesebob> I burned a DVD under Vista and Ubuntu won't read it. "Invalid mount option"
[00:44] <Netham45> beatchya, hehe.
[00:44] <Netham45> cheesebob, sounds like a failed burn to me
[00:44] <Pelo> theunixgeek, edit the xorg.conf file and add the extra resolution you want to the list
[00:44] <cheesebob> Netham45, i can read it under vista though
[00:44] <theunixgeek> Pelo: how? :) I have xorg.conf open. where do I add the resolution?
[00:44]  * Pelo finds the join/parts very annoying tonight
[00:44] <Netham45> cheesebob, did you finalize it?
[00:44] <Cray_> do you have grafic card driver installed ...
[00:45] <Pelo> theunixgeek, scroll further down,  you'll see it
[00:45] <Tann> amenado: Either directly, or using a network stitch
[00:45] <cheesebob> Netham45, i closed the session
[00:45] <theunixgeek> Pelo: ok, restarting X now
[00:45] <amenado> Tann-> define your definition of directly or network stitch...im not understanding you
[00:45] <Netham45> cheesebob, then I am fresh out of ideas
[00:45] <Jordan_U> cheesebob, Was it burned in Vista?
[00:46] <cheesebob> Jordan_U, yes
[00:46] <theunixgeek> Pelo: nope, still didn't work
[00:46] <Tann> amenado: Sorry, typo stitch is supposed to be "switch"
[00:46] <Pelo> theunixgeek, you now need to change the rez from the resolution applet in the pref menu
[00:46] <Jordan_U> cheesebob, I have heard that Vista uses a new format for disks, there is a way to get them to mount but I can't remember it off the top of my head
[00:46] <Pelo> theunixgeek, you also needed to add the resolution to each colour dept
[00:46] <theunixgeek> Pelo: I did; it's not there
[00:46] <theunixgeek> Pelo: how?
[00:47] <Pelo> theunixgeek, pastebin your xorg.conf file so I can have a look
[00:47] <Tann> amenado: by directly, i mean an ethernet cable connected to the gateway's ethernet port and the second computer's ethernet port
[00:47] <Incarnadine> For some reason I'm no longer able to run Zend Studio (5.5.1) from my normal user, and must run it as root. I see the java process in the background on ps, but no Zend appears. All of the Zend/ files/folders are owned by me. Any ideas?

[00:49] <killown> hiredgoon, how I do to disable tooltips from gnome-panel windows list ?
[00:49] <Pelo> theunixgeek,  i misinformed you ,  I didn't reallise you have and nvidia card,  check in synaptic, I belive there is a nvidia-settings package , you can do it from there,  ,and remove the resolutions you added in xorg.conf,  it was in the wrong place anyway
[00:50] <theunixgeek> Pelo: thanks :)
[00:50] <Pelo> TaRDy, no I am not , sorry

[00:50] <Pelo> !hi zo0o0ot
[00:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hi zo0o0ot - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[00:50] <Pelo> !hi | zo0o0ot
[00:50] <ubotu> zo0o0ot: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[00:51] <cheesebob> Jordan_U, i just broke that DVD (useless with UDF 2.5) it's cool how dvd layer is in the middle
[00:51] <zo0o0ot> I'm having issues with a pchdtv card- I can't get the dvb utilities to work in ubuntu
[00:51] <Tann> amenado: i was told on #networking that i would need a crossover cable.
[00:52] <zo0o0ot> does anyone have advice or experience?
[00:52] <Fryguy--> Tann: so get a crossover cable
[00:52] <Pelo> zo0o0ot, because fo copyright issues,  dvd don'T work out of the box in ubuntu you have to do a little work
[00:52] <amenado> Tann-> correct or use a switch in between or a hub
[00:52] <Pelo> !dvd | zo0o0ot
[00:52] <ubotu> zo0o0ot: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[00:52] <awmcclain> Ug. Can anyone point me to how I can create a user (with password) from the console? I can't find any good resources.
[00:52] <zo0o0ot> not DVD- terrestrial ATSC OTA HDTV
[00:52] <Jordan_U> Netham45, Sounds like opening /etc/networking/interfaces in vim and the server crashing was more a matter of correlation than causation
[00:52] <jvai> hey all, what's a good make/model external-usb dual layer dvd burner for dapper?
[00:52] <willis_> awmcclain,  sudo adduser, or sudo useradd
[00:53] <Netham45> Jordan_U, those are some big words there.
[00:53] <zo0o0ot> using the ATSC tuner from pchdtv's hd-3000 card
[00:53] <willis_> awmcclain,  old skool linux basics. :)
[00:53] <Pelo> awmcclain, try asking in ##linux  there mgith not be anyone here qho knows
[00:53] <moose> i extracgted the dosbox game in a folder on my desktop and i right clicked and opened it with dosbox
[00:53] <awmcclain> willis_: Sorry.. i meant non-interactively.
[00:53] <dag> what does a SLES cost ?
[00:53] <Tann> amenado: sp a switch will work? What do id do after i connect them using the switch?
[00:53] <moose> it says cd missing
[00:53] <Pelo> zo0o0ot, maybe try to do a forum search for your hardware , www.ubuntuforums.org
[00:53] <willis_> awmcclain,    I recall some of those commands can take alernative input. check their manpages.
[00:53] <Jordan_U> Netham45, Just because it crashed after you started vi doesn't mean vi caused the crash, whatever caused the crash of the entire server is probably what caused vim to crash, not the other way around :)
[00:54] <Pelo> ok gotta go to be, g'night foks
[00:54] <awmcclain> willis_: Already have. Can't figure out how to redirect stdin into passwd.
[00:54] <amenado> Tann-> assign an ip address to your 2nd computer, let it point to a dns server; and ...
[00:54] <zo0o0ot> pchdtv has their own forum, following the forum advice, I can't get the dvb utilities that they need to install
[00:54] <amenado> Tann then its as easy as   echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward;  and...
[00:54] <Netham45> Jordan_U, well, it is a brand new install, all I've done was install openssh-server.
[00:54] <Pelo> amenado, it is a linux util ?
[00:54] <amenado> Tann then its as easy as   sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward;  and...
[00:54] <willis_> awmcclain,  No idea on that. Ive seen it done.. but never done it..  ages ago you could use 'expect' to automate it i guess..  but not sure whats a good way now.
[00:54] <Pelo> nvm , g'night folks
[00:54] <amenado> Pelo which one?
[00:55] <awmcclain> willis_: Well. poop. Thanks for your try!
[00:55] <Jordan_U> Netham45, Can you pastebin your /etc/networking/interfaces ?
[00:55] <Netham45> Jordan_U, why?
[00:56] <Coolguy64537> i keep getting an error when i check my alternate amd cd but the md5sum is normal, whats wrong
[00:56] <jvai> ou
[00:56] <amenado> Tann-> sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wlan0 -j MASQUERADE  assuming wlan0 is the wireless nic
[00:56] <Jordan_U> Netham45, To see if it was corrupted ( did I get the wrong nick ? )

[00:59] <dts> i need bash help. how do i assign the output of a simple command like date to a variable
[00:59] <moose> and just right click and open it with dosbox its that simple
[00:59] <Kyro__> gamergod131, if you have a prompt log in and type startx
[00:59] <moose> you dont even have to run dosbox from terminal
[00:59] <snoopamk> hi

[01:00] <moose> why can somebody have just told me that earlier

[01:00] <gamergod131> I tried unpluging it and plugging it back in but no dice
[01:00] <Fryguy--> Coolguy64537: well, if your image passes md5, and it burns correctly, then you have a fine cd.
[01:00] <gamergod131> There is no error
[01:00] <Fryguy--> gamergod131: what partial update are you talking about?
[01:01] <Kyro__> charlesg3, probably indexing - you can turn it off in system -> preferences -> indexing preferences
[01:01] <gamergod131> I have no clue
[01:01] <gamergod131> I just hit the update button as usual
[01:01] <zo0o0ot> the update, what it online or from a ddisk?
[01:01] <Coolguy64537> fryguy can i pm u
[01:01] <Fryguy--> gamergod131: you obviously have some clue, because you are claiming some sort of update happened
[01:01] <Fryguy--> Coolguy64537: no
[01:01] <gamergod131> The update was online
[01:01] <charlesg3> Kyro__: in kde...?
[01:01] <Kyro__> oh sorry charlesg3 i thougt you were running gnomes

[01:08] <Dr_Link> Fryguy-- I thought WINE setup was *supposed* to create it by itself.
[01:08] <Tramp> gamergod131: then try the other options. maybe one works. If not, you're pretty well screwed.
[01:08] <Fryguy--> flipmode: remove any .bash_profile, .bashrc files in your home directory and try again
[01:08] <Fryguy--> Dr_Link: where did you install it from?
[01:08] <Cray_> any1 know how to activate 3D Desktop on USB version msg me

[01:08] <Fryguy--> gamergod131: you should pay attention to the directions you are following next time haha

[01:09] <Dr_Link> Fryguy--, Add/Remove Applications.
[01:09] <Fryguy--> Dr_Link: you probably found a bug then

[01:09] <Cray_> idd
[01:09] <Dr_Link> damnit.
[01:10] <redips1> Where you have the desktop on a square on screen.
[01:10] <Cray_> or ethernet card is not supported anymore
[01:10] <Flannel> redips1, Fryguy--, he means the compiz cube thing
[01:10] <Fryguy--> gamergod131: you'll probably have to reinstall ubuntu, since you upgraded it to an alpha version, and ubuntu's package system doesn't support downgrading
[01:10] <Coolguy64537> when it gets to the install software screen it shows an error mesage so i just skipped the software part. it will boot into just a plain terminal so i need to know how to change the repositories from cd to internet because the cd will oly install the base system
[01:10] <redips1> Yes..
[01:10] <Cray_> any1 know how to activate 3D Desktop on Life Ubuntu USB version msg me
[01:10] <Fryguy--> Flannel: cube != square, but whatever

[01:12] <Fryguy--> redips1: did you do anything that I said?
[01:12] <czarczar> hi, i have a dual boot setup (sabayon linux & vista). I'd like to install ubuntu over sabayon, will this work without messing up my mbr or grub?
[01:12] <Fryguy--> redips1: you need to install compizconfig-settings-manager and enable the cube there
[01:13] <flipmode> Fryguy: I have no .bash folders
[01:13] <Fryguy--> flipmode: i didn't say you have a .bash directory, i said you'll have a .bash_profile or a .bashrc file
[01:13] <lethalamby> ne idea about the config folder of cheese
[01:13] <Fryguy--> czarczar: should work just fine
[01:13] <amenado> flipmode-> you get a blank screen when you go crtrl+alt+f2?
[01:14] <czarczar> awesome, thanks much
[01:14] <Flannel> Stroganoff: you want to get rid of them all?
[01:14] <johnny53> im trying to install kubuntu from a live cd on an old laptop with no ethernet port, all i have is a linksys wpc54g v.3 wireless card and kubuntu is trying to use the wrong driver for it
[01:14] <nikrud> gnr: once I put a script in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/ , the scripts in right click showed up
[01:14] <Stroganoff> Flannel, yeah why not?
[01:14] <Flannel> Stroganoff: just `sudo apt-get clean` instead.
[01:14] <Stroganoff> ok
[01:14] <Stroganoff> thx
[01:15] <lethalamby> any one knows how to change configuration of cheese
[01:15] <johnny53> anyone?
[01:15] <shawn__> hey guys my computer isnt using any swap
[01:15] <shawn__> is that good or bad?
[01:15] <Stroganoff> bad.
[01:15] <Stroganoff> no
[01:15] <Stroganoff> there IS a swap mounted, right?
[01:15] <Flannel> shawn__: Does it need to?
[01:15] <lethalamby> if sufficient ram then good
[01:16] <david_> i really appreciate the help from everyone as I am noobie to linux
[01:16] <shawn__> yea there is a swap mounted
[01:16] <shawn__> i dont know if it needs to
[01:16] <nikrud> lethalamby: probably neeed to ask in #ubuntu+1 , I'm assuming you're in hardy
[01:16] <shawn__> its running a bit slow
[01:16] <mannytu> !ask
[01:16] <ubotu> Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[01:16] <Tann> amenado: the internet didn't go through
[01:16] <redips1> I found the commands..I'll figure it out.
[01:16] <johnny53> can anyone help me? im trying to install kubuntu from a live cd on an old laptop with no ethernet port, all i have is a linksys wpc54g v.3 wireless card and kubuntu is trying to use the wrong driver for it
[01:17] <Fryguy--> shawn__: the linux kernel does a fine job of allocating memory when and how it needs to, it's working fine
[01:17] <life2atreus> cant get sound to work in firefox anybody know what to do?
[01:17] <amenado> Tann-> did you assign an ip address to your 2nd computer?  can you ping the yahoo from the gateway?
[01:17] <shawn__> okay
[01:17] <shawn__> is there any way to make it run faster
[01:17] <flipmode> Fryguy: it brought me to a black screen where i had to sign in uname and pass
[01:17] <jescis> Why is the fb device created in /dev/.static/dev when you run ./MAKEDEV?
[01:17] <Tann> amenado: how do i assing an IP?
[01:18] <amenado> Tann-> what os is your second computer?
[01:18] <twistedbeatfreek> i can get my sound to work im new to linux how do i play my mp3s
[01:18] <nikrud> jescis: because the devices in /dev are created on the fly by udev, not by MAKEDEV anymore
[01:18] <Fryguy--> flipmode: ?
[01:18] <Fryguy--> flipmode: no idea what you are talking about
[01:18] <amenado> Tann btw, have you tried to google for a tutorial on how to share an internet connection?
[01:18] <flipmode> Fryguy: when you told me to press ctrl alt f2
[01:18] <jescis> nikrud: so how do I get it to make them fb[0...7]?
[01:19] <Fryguy--> flipmode: i never told you to do that
[01:19] <johnny53> anyone have any ideas?
[01:19] <nikrud> jescis: I would expect them to be created when you install the framebuffer module
[01:19] <voidtech> connect irc.rizon.net
[01:19] <amenado> flipmode-> im the one that suggested you try that and see what you get
[01:19] <Fryguy--> johnny53: no
[01:19] <cottima> hello, debbootstrap fails upon "Install the base system", is there a way to restart/fix this without restarting.  The CD checks valid.
[01:19] <lethalamby> @nikrud: cud not get u
[01:19] <lethalamby> wat is meant by ubuntu+l
[01:19] <lethalamby> ???
[01:20] <flipmode> sorry
[01:20] <atlef> !hardy
[01:20] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[01:20] <johnny53> noone has ever run into this before?
[01:20] <jescis> nikrud: and the frame buffer module is in what package?
[01:20] <Kyro__> Hi guys I have a Logitech G15 keyboard - with a LCD Screen on it - how do I get it to work with Ubuntu?
[01:20] <flipmode> amendo: it brought me to a black screen where i had to sign in uname and pass
[01:20] <DJDarkstar> Quick question... are there any OS X emulators that work similar to Wine?
[01:21] <amenado> flipmode-> so there was a login prompt? not entirely just black screen?>
[01:21] <flipmode> amendo: yes
[01:21] <Fryguy--> DJDarkstar: for pure virtualization, there's plenty of options (vmware, virtualbox, and qemu spring to mind).  There is no emulator available though
[01:21] <jescis> nikrud: I've installed the server edition of ubuntu 7.10
[01:21] <DJDarkstar> thanks Fryguy
[01:21] <Absorto> help! I can't get a text-mode console with ctrl-alt-f[1..6]
[01:22] <Coolguy64537> how do i edit the repositories from cd to internet with terminal
[01:22] <Absorto> Coolguy64537: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:22] <amenado> flipmode a new install?
[01:22] <nikrud> jescis: sorry, was away. a sec
[01:23] <amenado> flipmode-> the nick is amenado..
[01:23] <jescis> nikrud: it's ok. I have plenty of time.
[01:23] <Dr_Link> Where should the WINE C-drive be?
[01:23] <flipmode> amenado: i have had for about three months and it worked up intill a couple weeks ago
[01:23] <Coolguy64537> any way to get windows to recognise ext3
[01:23] <david_> cottima, i had a similar problem trying to install ubuntu 7.01.  I dropped it back to 6.xx and it installed fine
[01:23] <malumInSe> Ubuntu won't install, I cleared out 10gb on my drive for it, boot it up and go through the install, but it's not letting me resize/create a partition for it
[01:23] <amenado> flipmode-> you had an update?
[01:24] <Stroganoff> Coolguy64537: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[01:24] <Stroganoff> easy
[01:24] <flipmode> amenado: i have installed several
[01:24] <jescis> Coolguy64537: there is a driver tool or two for that purpose. You might want to try google
[01:24] <david_> linksys WUSB54G + ubuntu 6.02 = headache!   Help!
[01:24] <pepparkaka> Coolguy64537, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[01:25] <a1fa_> hey
[01:25] <a1fa_> where can i get the tftp boot image?
[01:25] <cottima> david_ so after the install did you upgrade to 7.10 through the repository?
[01:25] <metanil> hello, anybody know about libshadow.a library file?
[01:25] <david_> cottima, no.  Currently using 6.xx version
[01:25] <shawn__> hello room i am having this error W: GPG error: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com gutsy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY<PHONE_NUMBER>7EE263
[01:25] <Joelito> anyone know a good ide for highlighting C# syntax...I don't like monodevelop and geany 0.11 doesn't support ii
[01:25] <amenado> flipmode, did you upgrade from feisty to gutsy?
[01:26] <shawn__> it does that when updating can somone help me
[01:26] <flipmode> amenado: I installed gutsy
[01:26] <cottima> david_ did you happen to use a 64-bit install (for 7.10)?
[01:26] <malumInSe> Ubuntu won't install, I cleared out 10gb on my drive for it, boot it up and go through the install, but it's not letting me resize/create a partition for it, can anyone point me in the right direction?
[01:26] <amenado> flipmode installed or upgraded to gutsy?
[01:26] <Fryguy--> either remove that 3rd party source from your list of repositories, or properly add the gpg key for it (follow the directions completely that you followed when adding that source)
[01:27] <flipmode> amenado: Installed from disc 7.10
[01:27] <david_> cottima, i have no idea.  This is the first Linux system i have installed.  I can do fair with windows products, so I am somewhat confused ATM.
[01:27] <shawn__> where is my list of repositorys?
[01:27] <amenado> flipmode that was three months ago, and recent updates?
[01:28] <david_> cottima, I have a dell dimension 4300 w/ P4 processor and 80gb HDD completely formatted for Ubuntu if that helps.  NO other O/S installed at all.
[01:28] <pepparkaka> shawn__, /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:28] <metanil> anybody knew Shadow Suite?
[01:28] <flipmode> amenado: i have installed all reccomended updates
[01:29] <twistedbeatfreek> amendo do you have music/video capabilities yet?
[01:29] <shawn__> it wont let me take them otu of there
[01:29] <amenado> flipmode these failure to get a login prompt on console just started to happen last week?
[01:29] <shawn__> how do i setup my source list again
[01:30] <shawn__> to take out the messed up wine list
[01:30] <amenado> twistedbeatfreek-> nope, i just gave up on sounds :(
[01:30] <Stroganoff> shawn__: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:30] <jescis> nikrud: So, the frame buffer module is in what package? Or what search term would I use in google to find the answer?
[01:30] <twistedbeatfreek> ive made it work before and it goes good
[01:30] <flipmode> amenado: yes give or take it is when i noticed it
[01:30] <Garamond> Hey I'm not sure if I'm in the right channel but does anyone have an experience using the 64-bit drivers for the Marvell topdog chipset?
[01:30] <Jeeves2> does anyone know of a plugin for webin to control OpenVPN?  or have a better soulition for a VPN that runs on M$ clients?
[01:31] <twistedbeatfreek> i need to make my sound work
[01:31] <shawn__> that didnt work
[01:31] <amenado> flipmode-> can you try noacpi  apci=off as boot parameters? try to reboot now..
[01:31] <nikrud> jescis: it would be triggered by a module that's already in the kernel (or should be, I'm finding no udev rule for /dev/fb[0-9] in /etc/udev/rules.conf . Looking for reasons
[01:31] <frutax> is there a known bug for firefox on edgy that causes it to always ask if you'd like to restore session, whether or not you closed it correctly? also it crashes unexpectedly
[01:31] <david_> if i'm trying to install wireless equipment, shouldn't i have some sort of wireless indicator on the system>administration>network...  etc?
[01:31] <flipmode> amenado: how do i do that?
[01:32] <amenado> twistedbeatfreek-> i have not pursued sounds issues.i can play video with no sounds though
[01:32] <amenado> flipmode when booting you hit esc and use arrow key to get to the kernel line and then insert those
[01:33] <jescis> nikrud: I did a modprobe for fb and it gave that it wasn't found :/
[01:34] <flipmode> amenado: so i write noacpi
[01:34] <shawn__> how do i redo my sources list
[01:35] <david_> ah ha..
[01:35] <amenado> flipmode yes and also try  acpi=off
[01:35] <Stroganoff> shawn__: just open it with an editor
[01:35] <cottima> thanks david_
[01:36] <david_> cottima anytime.  not sure if i helped, but good luck.
[01:36] <fa1sal> ./j #linuxac
[01:36] <own1xx> exit
[01:37] <twistedbeatfreek> can anyone help me with sound issues
[01:37] <Garamond> Does anyone know anything about the 64 bit XP (or vista I suppose) drivers for Wireless-N Devices? I was trying to find out if someone had tried them with ndiswrapper yet
[01:37] <david_> YES!  I may have the linksys wusb54G operating...  let me check   :)  (...hoping for posative results)
[01:38] <eegore> Hardy is Alpha 6 but is acting like beta 3
[01:38] <bazhang> eegore: #ubuntu+1 please
[01:39] <flipmode> amenado: i cant hit escape when it says to it has not yet read the keyboard i guess?
[01:39] <amenado> flipmode-> maybe up/down arrow key...right when you get to count down
[01:40] <flipmode> amenado: i have tried all that before it just isnt funtional at that point for some reason
[01:40] <Stroganoff> eegore: is it that stable yet?
[01:41] <bazhang> frutax: no that is normal behaviour
[01:41] <amenado> flipmode can you boot from a liveCD?
[01:41] <frutax> bazhang: it's normal behavoir for it to crash unexpectedly and not be able to restore previous sessions?
[01:41] <flipmode> amenado: yes i can go to the bios but i cant do anything while the grub is loading
[01:41] <Garamond> Um, does anyone use wireless and 64 bit here?
[01:42] <jescis> nikrud: so how is it you can watch a video or look at images with a gui but you can't without a gui?
[01:42] <amenado> flipmode can you boot from a liveCD?
[01:42] <nikrud> jescis: not finding any sugar, but I'm curious about this.  Having a bit of trouble booting from a live CD (7.10). After hitting star/install the screen blacks out and i get beeps from the compy. I think it's a gfx prob. The gard is a nvidia 8500
[01:42] <flipmode> amenado: yes
[01:42] <bazhang> frutax: no the first part; normal to ask if you want to restore orginal session per your original question
[01:42] <nikrud> jescis: because you don't have a working framebuffer
[01:42] <Stroganoff> DFlame, use alternate cd.
[01:43] <eegore> nope
[01:43] <frutax> bazhang: oh, well it asks that every time, even if there is no previous session to restore, and if there is one, it doesn't restore it
[01:43] <amenado> flipmode can you paste into pastebin your menu.lst?
[01:43] <bazhang> frutax: then just choose no
[01:43] <jescis> nikrud: ok thanks for the help.
[01:43] <flipmode> amenado: where do i find this?
[01:44] <a1fa_> hey for netboot do you use tcp/ip or pxe?
[01:44] <DFlame> Stroganoff, I'd like to be able to partition manually. Is that possible on the alternate?
[01:44] <shawn__> can someone help me fix my source list
[01:44] <frutax> bazhang: well, yeah, but it's broken, it's a bug. i was just wondering if it was well-known and if there was a fix
[01:44] <Stroganoff> DFlame, yes it is
[01:44] <xthegoat121x> Gah, so a card I thought was going to be supported in Ubuntu has wound up giving me nothing but issues.
[01:44] <amenado> flipmode /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:44] <shawn__> i am having trouble because the wine list is messing up
[01:44] <DFlame> aight, cheers. I'll give it a shot
[01:45] <xthegoat121x> I have a Radeon 7500 that doesn't seem to work with any of the included Ubuntu drivers...
[01:45] <a1fa_> blah
[01:45] <Garamond> can anyone see what I'm typing? :(
[01:45] <a1fa_> no
[01:46] <bazhang> frutax: describe your problem with some clarity please; when does it crash, is this 64bit ubuntu? watching lots of flash in many tabs, also check launchpad for bugs and file one if you really believe it is one--firefox is a memory hog and if not enough ram may act oddly--you might try another browser as well
[01:46] <flipmode> amenado: i think you can find it here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59987/
[01:46] <Carenthalas> xthegoat121x: My thinkpad T42 has Radeon 7500. It does not have any problem on Ubuntu 6.06, ..., 7.10.
[01:46] <nichos> Hi all, my xorg is crashing on my nvidia/twinview setup when it does anything with glx. Here is the log: http://rafb.net/p/yoo9H710.html
[01:46] <xthegoat121x> Carenthalas, ah, this is a non-mobile chipset, and it's really on xubuntu, but they're both really close anyway, not to mention the fact that #xubuntu is dead....
[01:47] <frutax> bazhang: will do, thank you
[01:47] <bazhang> np
[01:47] <bellkana> hello
[01:48] <bellkana> is this the room i can ask questions about the Ubuntu?
[01:48] <GATO>  :)
[01:48] <a1fa_> i am having issuex trying to pxe boot that new iamge
[01:48] <nichos> any help would be appreciated:)
[01:49] <icesword> !hi | bellkana
[01:49] <ubotu> bellkana: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:49] <amenado> flipmode comment out line 23; and on line 132 remove quiet and splash, but add noacpi acpi=off
[01:49] <bellkana> < ubotu HI!
[01:49] <levander> Are there any alternatives to amule available?
[01:49] <Carenthalas> xthegoat121x: Have you tried to re-configure the X?
[01:49] <a1fa_> tftp client does not accept options
[01:50] <jbwiv_> guys, I had a software raid mirror that failed. I can't boot for some reason from the remaining drive. I've booted into the live cd and am trying to mount, but it tells me "unknown filesystem type linux_raid_member". I searched the forums for awhile, but trying what they suggested (mount -t ext3) doesn't work either. This would make sense, as I had LVM on top of the mirror. Anyone know how I can fix or get to data?
[01:50] <schidamb> I've a file permission with c--xr-x--- . Not sure how this file get to this stage, could you pls help me to remove this file. I've downloaded this file from maven repository
[01:50] <bellkana> OK, can I use the Japanese characters to input as the IME on MS Windows?
[01:51] <Fryguy--> schidamb: just delete it..
[01:51] <schidamb> doesnt'
[01:51] <NeXius> can some one tell me why i dont have sound on everything els but XMMS
[01:51] <schidamb> doesn't let me to
[01:51] <flipmode> amenado: i 23 is command lock?
[01:51] <Fryguy--> schidamb: do delete it as root
[01:51] <Dr_willis> NeXius,  XMMS is geting to be quite old. I would suggest using other players.
[01:51] <shawn__> how do i get to root so that i can edit my source list
[01:51] <Carenthalas> bellkana: I think so.
[01:51] <shawn__> ?
[01:51] <amenado> flipmode are you root? edit as root
[01:51] <Dr_willis> NeXius,  for a guss. i would think that xmms is not set to use ALSA like the rest of the apps are.
[01:51] <xthegoat121x> Carenthalas, yes.
[01:52] <bellkana> carenthalas: I enabled the Japanese function but where do I see the IME kinda icon?
[01:52] <Carenthalas> xthegoat121x: I don't have better suggestion for you, sorry.
[01:52] <jescis> shawn__: ubuntu doesn't have a proper root. You sudo to do things.
[01:52] <amenado> flipmode id also comment those lines 134 144 to remove quiet effects
[01:52] <xthegoat121x> Carenthalas, it's all right.  I appreciate it regardless.
[01:53] <shawn__> so how do i sudo to edit my source list
[01:53] <flipmode> amenado: by comment you mean erase?
[01:53] <jescis> shawn__: in terminal
[01:53] <shawn__> do you know the command
[01:53] <Carenthalas> bellkana: I use SCIM which can configure Asian languages IME such as Chinese, Japan hirangana, and katakana, etc.
[01:53] <Fryguy--> shawn__: sudo <insertnameofyourfavoriteeditorhere> /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:53] <amenado> flipmode  #  is a comment  are you trying to learn unix here step by step?
[01:53] <Starnestommy> shawn__: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.save
[01:53] <Dr_willis> sudo EDITOR /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:54] <jescis> shawn__: sudo gedit <fileyouwantedited>
[01:54] <flipmode> amenado: i guess ive never heard that before
[01:54] <Dr_willis> shawn__,  you may need to use nano, or some other text based editor. Depends on  if  You wan tto use X or console.
[01:54] <flipmode> amenado: so i just put a # at the end?
[01:54] <Fryguy--> benzss:
[01:54] <Fryguy--> beginning
[01:55] <Dez> guys i gots a problem....
[01:55] <amenado> flipmode at the beginning
[01:55] <Tann> amenado: the other comp is windows
[01:55] <jbwiv_> Lord have mercy people...by a book on Linux before you come to irc. Seriously. Basics are *easy*
[01:55] <jbwiv_> er...buy,  as it were
[01:55]  * amenado dont disagree with jbwiv
[01:56] <pantsd_> I've been searching on google and the wiki, but I can't seem to find an answer. I have a core duo, but I can't seem to get the second cpu identifed. dmesg shows "WARNING: NR_CPUS limit of 1 reached.  Processor ignored." I can't seem to find a way to install SMP kernel, any suggestions of where I can look for more info?
[01:56] <amenado> Tann-> you know how to set an ip address on windows right?  i hope you do..or else visit #windows
[01:56] <jescis> jbwiv_: basics are supposed to be easy they're basic ;)
[01:56] <Dez> Q: I recently updated to 7.10 but for some reason that version boots up into a mode that is out of range of my monitor. How can I can the default screen resolution in safe mode (command prompt)?
[01:56] <jbwiv_> jescis: apparently that's missed on a lot of people here...
[01:56] <Fryguy--> pantsd_: ubuntu's generic kernel supports smp by default, and behaves just fine out of the box with multiple processors, namely those in the core2 family.  You must have some done something other than a stock install, or have some very exotic hardware somewhere else in the system
[01:57] <Fryguy--> Dez: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:57] <Fryguy--> Dez: or dpkg-reconfigure it
[01:57] <Fryguy--> (xserver)
[01:57] <amenado> flipmode-> i wonder if you and Dez have similar problem, ie out or range resolution?
[01:57] <pantsd_> Fryguy--: I think I'm using a stock kernel, how can I check/install one?
[01:58] <Garamond> Is it possible to use vista drivers for ndiswrapper?
[01:58] <Fryguy--> pantsd_: well did you install or compile a non-stock kenrel?
[01:58] <Dez> for me im quite sure its the resolution. my monitor is a HDTV and its real picky about resultions
[01:58] <Dez> thanks for the advice
[01:58] <flipmode> amenado: how do i edit as root if i cant use terminal?
[01:58] <eng_xima> malta alguem ai
[01:58] <Fryguy--> flipmode: use gksu as a gui replacement for sudo
[01:58] <pantsd_> Fryguy--:  I don't think so.
[01:58] <Stroganoff> pantsd_: "uname -a" in console
[01:58] <Fryguy--> pantsd_: then you have multi processor support
[01:59] <Fryguy--> pantsd_: does top or anything show you as using 2 processors?
[01:59] <flipmode> huh
[01:59] <jescis> flipmode: Why can't you use terminal? Too hard? :p
[01:59] <eng_xima> i don't have sound in my ubunto
[01:59] <steven_> is there a log file where what happened during bootup is stored?
[01:59] <eng_xima> who help me
[01:59] <pantsd_> Fryguy--: top only shows one cpu and only one cpu shows up in /proc/cpuinfo
[01:59] <flipmode> jescis: it is not working
[01:59] <Fryguy--> eng_xima: english is helpful, along with a more detailed description of your problem
[02:00] <pantsd_> Fryguy--: uname -a = Linux htop 2.6.22-14-386 #1 Tue Feb 12 07:12:19 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[02:00] <Fryguy--> pantsd_: then something is horribly wrong with your hardware setup.
[02:00] <ctgPi> What packages do I need to install to be able to compile kernel modules? My installation seems to lack the asm/local.h file
[02:00] <eng_xima> the sound card is installed,..
[02:00] <shawn__> i went to that editing this for my source list
[02:00] <bellkana> Carenthalas: where do I download the SCIM? I tried Apps > Add/Remove then tried to find it but no luck
[02:00] <eng_xima> everything is ok
[02:00] <shawn__> and the code3 thta i need tot ake out isnnt in there
[02:00] <eng_xima> but no sound
[02:00] <eng_xima> :S
[02:01] <kitche> ctgPi: do you have build-essential installed?
[02:01] <shawn__> the list i ned to get rid of are in sources d
[02:01] <pantsd_> Fryguy--: coool, thanks
[02:01] <ctgPi> kitche: I'm installing it right now
[02:01] <Fryguy--> pantsd_: make sure your bios is configured correctly to use smp, apic etc
[02:02] <ctgPi> kitche: still no asm/local.h
[02:02] <amenado> flipmode you said you can get to liveCd ?
[02:02] <pantsd_> Fryguy--: cool, I'll do that once I finish my download. Thanks a lot for your help :) Greatly appreciated :)
[02:02] <jescis> eng_xima: if you go to /dev is alsa in there?
[02:03] <ctgPi> kitche: I've got already gcc, build-essential, linux-headers
[02:03] <jescis> eng_xima: or oss?
[02:03] <Carenthalas> bellkana: My linux OS is preloaded with SCIM with Asian fonts and IME.
[02:03] <ctgPi> kitche: and there's a bunch of asm-*/local.h under /usr/src/linux-.../include/, but symlinking asm to asm-i386 still gives compilation errors
[02:04] <icesword> Carenthalas, you from china,where?
[02:04] <Carenthalas> bellkana: You may look for the web site: http://www.scim-im.org/ see if you can find the anwser.
[02:04] <steven_> is there a place where I can get the screen output from bootup?
[02:04] <Carenthalas> icesword: Yes
[02:04] <kitche> ctgPi: your might be missing libc6-dev which build-essential should have given you
[02:04] <hischild> i have a small prob ... i just installed ubuntu server on vbox and i'm getting "PANIC: CPU too old for this kernel."
[02:04] <cottima> hello I have an error, debootstrap: 426  (No space left on device)
[02:04] <jescis> eng_xima: sorry no I meant audio
[02:04] <ctgPi> kitche: yep, it's already installed
[02:04] <Carenthalas> bellkana: And you may check the package management see if you can download the SCIM I think...
[02:05] <shawn__> okay
[02:05] <icesword> Carenthalas, your ip points to korea
[02:05] <shawn__>  sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[02:05] <shawn__> i tryed that command
[02:05] <icesword> south korea
[02:05] <shawn__> and i took the list out
[02:05] <Carenthalas> icesword: I am in Shanghai actually.
[02:05] <shawn__> but then they came right back
[02:05] <shawn__> and i need them gone because they are messing up my updates
[02:05] <flyback> why is it that ubuntu mounts my hd partiition as having no permissions and how the hell do I fix that
[02:05] <shawn__>  sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[02:06] <mneptok> flyback: language, please
[02:06] <mneptok> shawn__: that command edits the file. it does not delete it.
[02:06] <icesword> Carenthalas, ok,glad to have a new friend
[02:06] <shawn__> how do i deleate it?
[02:06] <jescis> shawn__: you have to save it too you know
[02:06] <shawn__> how do i save it
[02:06] <mneptok> shawn__: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[02:06] <Carenthalas> brb
[02:07] <jescis> I never used nano liu and giyf
[02:07] <eng_xima> i finished the install of build essential
[02:07] <jescis> liu ++ look it up
[02:07] <eng_xima> but no sound:S
[02:07] <flyback> ugh this is insane
[02:07] <mneptok> jescis: "liu" and "giyf" are not welcome comments here.
[02:08] <amenado> flipmode btw, how were you able to grab the menu.lst you pasted?
[02:08] <mneptok> jescis: if you can;t actually help, we ask you not say anything. :)

[02:11] <coleosis> Hello
[02:11] <a1fa_> what is the option to start the install in ncurses mode?
[02:11] <jescis> mneptok: I help when I can and if google is good for me then it's good for others. I don't see the big deal.
[02:12] <Dez> shit, what was that dpkg reconfigure line fix you had for the "out of range" problem?
[02:13] <Skapare> is it true that one can make an Ubuntu install into a Kubuntu system or an Xubuntu system by just installing the appropriate packages?
[02:13] <Skapare> My ultimate goal is one system that a user on it can choose from among Gnome, KDE, Xfce, and others
[02:13] <jescis> mneptok: and I use a book before I google it too.
[02:14] <sjovan> how did you go back to the normal desktopview and restart compiz? the box around my windows dissapierd. HAven't been in front of my computer for 3 months, so i don't remember how to fix it
[02:14] <jvm> hi. is there some tool like gnu indent for other languages than c?
[02:14] <threeseas> help backed up my system and resized partitions where /home and another directory were sepoarate partitions. can't seem to

[02:15] <coonlokht> pardon
[02:15] <Dr_Link> I installed playmidi, how come I still can't play MIDI files?
[02:16] <Rolcol> Hm...
[02:16] <threeseas> what is a command that tells me the partition size of a mount point?
[02:16] <Fryguy--> alfanick: use the alternate install disc
[02:16] <Fryguy--> err alfa_
[02:16] <tsukasa_> hey, how can i sleep my laptop? i looked in the power manager thing but its not even an option
[02:16] <a1fa_> Fryguy--: dont have one
[02:17] <Fryguy--> alfa_: then you can't text install
[02:17] <bebin> how to install the driver for gigabyet ethernet card
[02:17] <Dr_Link> is there other software I need to play midis other than playmidi?
[02:17] <Daisuke_Ido> Fryguy--, isn't there an only.ubiquity option you can pass to the kernel or something?
[02:17] <Fryguy--> bebin: which card?
[02:18] <Daisuke_Ido> something like that...
[02:18] <Karsyt1> anyone know the netstat command to see direct connections? for example im trying to get the IP of my friend on AIM
[02:18] <Carenthalas> icesword: What is the location now?
[02:18] <hischild> can anyone explain why a fresh install of ubuntu server edition in vbox would give me a panic: cpu too old for this kernel warning?
[02:18] <icesword> Carenthalas, same
[02:18] <Fryguy--> Karsyt1: netstat's manpage will have whatever you need
[02:19] <icesword> Carenthalas, ohhhhh,shanghai this time
[02:19] <jescis> nikrud: I forgot to tell you I have a Nvidia GeForce FX 5200
[02:19] <Carenthalas> icesword: I am newbie on using linux.
[02:19] <Dr_Link> playmidi: No playback device found.
[02:19] <Dr_Link> ^ Eh? The soundcard's functioning.
[02:20] <Dr_Link> why can't I play MIDIs?!
[02:20] <norv> Dr_Link: you need timidity, most sound cards have no hardware midi support
[02:20] <cottima> david_ wow, I should look to see when my partition size in in MB instead of GB
[02:21]  * Daisuke_Ido hugs his Roland MT-32
[02:21] <threeseas> how do I verify a mount?
[02:21] <threeseas> from a shell
[02:21] <hischild> threeseas, type mount and see if it's in the list
[02:22] <mneptok> Dr_Link: with what app?
[02:22] <Dr_Link> playmidi?
[02:22] <Dr_Link> I just want to be able to universally play .mid files.
[02:22] <mneptok> Dr_Link: does your sound card have hardware MIDI support?
[02:22] <Dr_Link> don't think so, I guess I need a wavetable.
[02:23] <mneptok> Dr_Link: you'll need Timidity, and look at FluidSynth

[02:25] <Skapare> pepparkaka: makes it easier to install now and decide later
[02:25] <hischild> threeseas, do you want help in finding out if your backup restore works or can you now find out if it works?
[02:26] <coleosis> What other IRC clients are there besides XChat?

[02:28] <Pasha> Can someone here help me relating to problems loading ubuntu after installation and 8800GT
[02:28] <XPHOX> hey
[02:28] <Pasha> After I installed it, I trying running linux and I get an error
[02:28] <Pasha> with the loading bar
[02:28] <Pasha> I think it might have something to do with my loading bar
[02:28] <sjovan> what error?
[02:28] <coleosis> Did you install the restricted drivers?
[02:28] <Pasha> no
[02:29] <Pasha> I just loaded ubuntu
[02:29] <Pasha> and it fails
[02:29] <whileimhere> hi. If I go into synaptic and remove VLC and then remove the hidden folder in my home dir does that get rid of VLC and then let me re-install it fresh?
[02:29] <Dr_Link> Wrong button.
[02:29] <Dr_Link> ^_^'
[02:29] <coleosis> Are you talking about the Live CD?
[02:29] <Pasha> no
[02:29] <Pasha> I used alt
[02:29] <coleosis> Ah
[02:29] <Pasha> to install ubuntu
[02:29] <Pasha> and now it GRUB loads
[02:29] <Pasha> I pick Ubuntu
[02:29] <Pasha> it gets to the loading bar
[02:29] <Pasha> and freezes
[02:29] <HardyOne> !enter | Pasha
[02:29] <ubotu> Pasha: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:30] <Pasha> kk sorry. So can anyone help me?
[02:30] <AVT> some help perhaps, regarding dual screen problems?
[02:30] <Pasha> I think it might be my 8800GT
[02:30] <Pasha> no I have one single screen through DVI
[02:30] <coleosis> BRB
[02:30] <jescis> Pasha: did you try booting without the graphics( Alt+F1-6)?
[02:30] <david_> ok, I had the Linksys WUSB54G usb device working for a few (Ubuntu ver 6.06), then rebooted.  Not working now.  Any thoughts?
[02:30] <Pasha> no i have not, and I did not know about that
[02:31] <Pasha> so I just press alt+F1, and 6 while holding it all down
[02:31] <Pasha> aight thx im off
[02:31] <xobius> Pasha what Mother board have you got?
[02:31] <Pasha> I have
[02:31] <jescis> I meant F1-F6
[02:31] <zcat[1]_> Pasha: ctrl-alt-F1 when the screen is black and see what happens
[02:31] <Pasha> oh okay, f1-f6. I have an Abit I-P35
[02:32] <Pasha> IP35-E* running an 6750 at 3.6ghz on water
[02:32] <a1fa_> pasha
[02:32] <Carenthalas> david_: try the LiveCD from different distro and different version.
[02:32] <a1fa_> get alternative install disk
[02:32] <Pasha> I did, I installed ubuntnu with it
[02:32] <coleosis> Shazzam, always wanted to try running with water.
[02:32] <jescis> lol @ on water
[02:32] <a1fa_> water is for newbs
[02:32] <a1fa_> i run of liquid teflon
[02:32] <zcat[1]_> can we avoid saying F1-F6 ... any one will do.. and from the gui it has to be ctrl-alt-F1, not just alt-F1
[02:32] <coleosis> lol
[02:32] <david_> carenthalas:  i am new, what is a distro?
[02:33] <coleosis> I wish I could get my keyboard backlight working
[02:33] <Pasha> rofl okay, but yeah I installed ubuntu already
[02:33] <coleosis> Call me crazy, I don't actually like Mac OS X, but I love their laptop design
[02:33] <Pasha> yeah trudat coleosis
[02:33] <Carenthalas> david_: Distribution from others, like Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Mandriva, etc.
[02:33] <david_> ok, ty
[02:34] <jescis> zcat[1]_: But we are talking about the bootup part. He's not even at a gui
[02:34] <Carenthalas> david_: Because the LiveCD will not change anything. You can use it for a diagnostic to see if it is hardware issue, or kernel support/driver issues, etc.
[02:34] <zcat[1]_> 'linux' is a kernel, a small binary program that does nothing at all by itself.. ubuntu is a distro, A collection of many programs including the linux 'kernel' that does useful things
[02:35] <zcat[1]_> jescis: what do you mean by F1-F6 then?? at GRUB it would be ESC to get the menu and pick the second option to get a text-only rescue boot
[02:35] <zcat[1]_> jescis: or are you suggesting they boot the installer disk and reinstall?
[02:35] <tsukasa_> hey guys, problem - i cant put my laptop to sleep. I looked in the gnome power manager, its not even listed as an option for me. How do i enable ACPI sleep?
[02:36] <ASDFG> hi all, I seem to be having some graphics card / desktop problems...
[02:36] <Pasha> How long does ronandi's ban last for? anyone know?
[02:36] <jescis> zcat[1]_: no, I'm thinking the gui refer to the desktop not the ubuntu bootup progress bar
[02:36] <ogre> if i wanted to see what driver my wireless card is using what do I do?
[02:37] <Pasha> How long does ronandi's ban last for? anyone know?
[02:37] <Scunizi> tsukasa_, acpi sleep is different with a lot of laptops.. I don't know if there is one solution for all or not.. that's probably why the option isn't htere.
[02:38] <mindheavy> hello
[02:38] <zcat[1]_> jescis: I am having trouble figuring out what you are trying to tell them to do...
[02:38] <coleosis> Anyone know why my keyboard backlights refuse to work? I installed pommed, and have even modified the keyboard type, I cannot get the LED's to actually come on though.
[02:39] <XPHOX> haha
[02:39] <XPHOX> sup guys
[02:39] <coleosis> hey
[02:39] <zcat[1]_> coleosis: your heyboard has backlighting?!! cool!
[02:39] <jescis> zcat[1]_: and Do you ever reboot your system?
[02:39] <ASDFG> im getting essentially noise on my screen, and im think my desktop isint taking up the whole screen....
[02:39] <zcat[1]_> jescis: occasionally
[02:40] <Stroganoff> ASDFG: raise the refresh rate
[02:40] <mindheavy> i've been curious, why is it that it's preferred not to use spaces in filenames?
[02:40] <alpat> join #callahans
[02:40] <coleosis> Yes, it does. I'm running a MacBook Pro...one of the features I love of the company specifically is the backlit keys as I am generally in a lot of poorly lit areas.
[02:40] <XPHOX> PRIVMSG
[02:40] <alpat> ?
[02:40] <coleosis> Do you happen to know how I would go about fixing it?
[02:40] <Scunizi> mindheavy, linux doesn't like spaces in names..if you have to do something with a "spaced" file name you have to enclose it in "'s
[02:41] <prince_jammys> mindheavy: because the shell uses spaces to separate words (arguments, for example) - so the shell doesn't know that a space is actually just part of the filename unless you quote it
[02:41] <zcat[1]_> Scunizi: or\ use\ a\ backslash
[02:41] <mindheavy> ah, thanks
[02:41] <jrib> Scunizi: just makes you take some extra steps in a shell
[02:41] <orran> helo
[02:41] <Scunizi> zcat[1], never tried that one. :)
[02:41] <jrib> mindheavy: just makes you take some extra steps in a shell
[02:41] <ASDFG> the problem is that I tried that, but since I have a laptop screen, and an external screen, the external screen is displaying at a lower resolution that its meant to, plus I cant turn the laptop screen off, my screen and graphics windows closes every time I change something
[02:41] <prince_jammys> mindheavy: rm crappy song.mp3   (will try to remove two files: "crappy" and "song.mp3")
[02:42] <mneptok> ASDFG: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:42] <orran> Hey I need help with formating my secondary hard drive
[02:42] <lymeca> What is the best way to capture a DV stream from a digital DV camera via Firewire?
[02:42] <mindslant> hey orran
[02:42] <mneptok> ASDFG: do that with the external monitor plugged in
[02:42] <zcat[1]_> rm crappy\ song.mp3 will work though .. or rm "crappy song.mp3"
[02:42] <jescis> zcat[1]_: so what shows up? a graphic of ubuntu with a progress bar. that's not a gui imo. the gui to me is the desktop. So, if you try alt+F1 then it should work I'm thinking.
[02:42] <Scunizi> orran, what do you want to format it to?
[02:42] <quentusrex> What should I install on a dual core Intel 64 bit processor? 7.10 386 or amd64?
[02:42] <Scunizi> 32
[02:43] <zcat[1]_> jescis: yes.. alt-F1.. not "alt-F1-F6" -- what keypress is that exactly?
[02:43] <mneptok> quentusrex: i386
[02:43] <orran> ext3?
[02:43] <Scunizi> quentusrex, 386  less headaches
[02:43] <quentusrex> alright
[02:43] <quentusrex> thanks
[02:43] <jescis> zcat[1]_: that's to sdhow they don't need to use F1 they could use F5
[02:43] <Scunizi> orran, there are different ways.. but gparted is the easiest.. sudo apt-get install gparted.. in a terminal  then sudo gparted to activate
[02:43] <zcat[1]_> jescis: if the screen is going black after bootup (when gdm starts) they probably want "ctrl-alt-F1" to get a text login, and they can reconfigure X from there
[02:44] <seismicmike> Hey guys I was in here yesterday with a problem with my mp3 player. You guys directed me to a website that had good instructions on changing the firmware. I just wanted to let you know that it worked and everything is perfect now. THANK YOU!!!
[02:44] <zcat[1]_> jescis: well you didn't tell them that
[02:44] <Scunizi> seismicmike, glad it worked!
[02:44] <seismicmike> you were a HUGE help man
[02:44] <orran> ??
[02:44] <seismicmike> this rocks!!!
[02:44] <jescis> zcat[1]_: it's a no brainer imo
[02:44] <david_> does Ubuntu 6.06 have a nickname?  some type of animal?
[02:44] <zcat[1]_> jescis: best to just pick one and don't tell them they can choose any. No it's not a no-braner, they seemed to think they had to press alt+F1+6"
[02:45] <Scunizi> orran, when you do sudo gparted it will start a gui app that will let you format and partition any of your drives..
[02:45] <coleosis> Wasn't 6.06 Fawn?
[02:45] <Scunizi> coleosis, dapper drake
[02:45] <coleosis> Ah, thanks. My bad.
[02:45] <david_> ty
[02:45] <Jinxed-> how do you adjust the settings so when you are viewing folders it doesn't open up a new window when you open a folder, but instead just stays in the same window you are in
[02:46] <seismicmike> anyway, just wanted to let you know. I'm off to enjoy my mp3 player :)
[02:46] <orran> explain it a little better
[02:46] <jescis> zcat[1]_: that's because I said F1-6. But when I said F1-F6 he got the message.
[02:46] <cafuego> ghrrm. Does quodlibet not support DAAP music sharing?
[02:47] <Scunizi> orran, if you want to format a drive, 1. it can't be mounted. 2. do it from the terminal/command line or gui 3.make sure you have the right drive picked out before committing to the format
[02:47] <Jinxed-> Like if I am viewing folder foo and I want to open folder bar, how do I get it so when i double click bar, it just opens the folder bar in the current window
[02:47] <riskbreaker> hey guys. I'm running the hardy alpha - this is my first time using gnome in a while, i've been a kubuntu user for a while. in kubuntu the power manger lets you turn down the CPU power. how do you do that in gnome?
[02:47] <Scunizi> orran, do you know where the terminal is in the menu?
[02:47] <ASDFG> alright ive gone through the xorg reconfig, now what?
[02:47] <orran> yeah
[02:48] <orran> I have it open right now
[02:48] <raidium> anyone out there setup eve-online to run multiple clients in hardy ?
[02:48] <Scunizi> orran, the commands I gave you before .. type them in.. sudo apt-get install gparted
[02:49] <orran> I need to install it hold on
[02:49] <Scunizi> orran, ok.. that's what that line does.. it installs it.
[02:49] <riskbreaker> cause like... the battery life right now is pretty dismal
[02:49] <coleosis> brb
[02:50] <orran> KOOL
[02:50] <hischild> riskbreaker, powernowd does that by itself
[02:50] <orran> it working
[02:50] <Scunizi> orran, ok.. now sudo gparted

[02:50] <Scunizi> orran, after it's done
[02:50] <Jinxed->  how do you adjust the settings so when you are viewing folders it doesn't open up a new window when you open a folder, but instead just stays in the same window you are in
[02:50] <prince_jammys> Jinxed-: http://digitalgraphy.wordpress.com/2008/02/16/how-do-i-make-all-my-folders-open-in-the-same-window-in-nautilus/
[02:50] <riskbreaker> hischild: what do you mean
[02:51] <orran> It won't let me run it
[02:51] <prince_jammys> heh, look at what people do to their urls to improve google ranking ^
[02:51] <xphox> join #ubuntu
[02:51] <xphox> pat u here
[02:52] <Scunizi> orran did you type "sudo gparted" ? without the quotes? all in lower case?
[02:52] <musashi> if there is a better channel for multimeida maybe someone can point me, otherwise, can anyone suggest a dvd ripper that will make files useful in final cut? I used k9copy (dvd recorded off tv not encrypted) but the resulting .avi files were unreadable on a mac. i have students needing to edit the video and i'm 100% ubuntu so looking for a good solution.
[02:52] <hischild> riskbreaker, powernowd sets the cpu power by itself on demand. It also has options on setting high/low limits. Type man powernowd for details.
[02:52] <Jinxed-> prince_jammys: you are my hero tonight
[02:52] <riskbreaker> is powernowd a daemon?
[02:52] <prince_jammys> Jinxed-: thank you thank you
[02:52] <cafuego> riskbreaker: yes
[02:53] <xphox> yea
[02:53] <orran_> kool
[02:53] <xphox> pat
[02:53] <orran_> it's working
[02:53] <Sandra24> I'm installing portable openssh 4.7 from source, from a ssh session
[02:53] <InSaneGame> yo
[02:53] <riskbreaker> so i dont get any manual control over my cpu's power level?
[02:53] <mattholimeau> could somebody please point me toward a good room for shell scripting?
[02:53] <xphox> fiqures
[02:53] <Scunizi> orran, are you familure with how drives are labeled?
[02:53] <hischild> riskbreaker, it's a daemon which you can control.
[02:54] <Sandra24> before I run make install, is there anything I should know? like I'm about to lock myself out? Or should I uninstall the portable open ssh (2.6) on there right now first?
[02:54] <InSaneGame> a$ke>Dvb fn5+ftD29m8= ltxq_ie
[02:54] <mattholimeau> i'm trying to figure out a remote query that will tell me the originating IP address
[02:54] <TaRDy> mattholimeau, which language you interested (just curious)
[02:54] <mattholimeau> just shell
[02:54] <orran_> It's scanning
[02:54] <jrib> Sandra24: why are you compiling ssh?
[02:54] <coleosis> I got my backlit keys on my keyboard working =] !
[02:55] <Sandra24> jrib: following: http://www.minstrel.org.uk/papers/sftp/
[02:55] <coleosis> pommed ftw
[02:55] <mattholimeau> bash specifically, i guess - but i prefer portable calls
[02:55] <mattholimeau> or - as portable as possible, hah
[02:55] <Scunizi> orran_, what kind and how large is your original drive IDE or SATA? and the same for the 2nd drive
[02:55] <prince_jammys> mattholimeau: #bash and read the guides in the topic
[02:55] <ClericDelta> I need assistance with my ipod. its not uploading anything anymore. or letting me delete songs from it
[02:55] <mattholimeau> prince_jammys thanks
[02:55] <riskbreaker> hischild: so basically i pick one of the 4 power modes?
[02:55] <orran_> IDE
[02:55] <Sandra24> I've got a ajax rescue shell I can use, maybe I need to switch to that before doing anything to the existing openssh
[02:55] <orran_> 2nd hard Drive
[02:55] <Scunizi> orran_, both? and how large
[02:55] <sarixe> ClericDelta : please be a little more specific?
[02:56] <orran_> 40gb
[02:56] <jrib> Sandra24: what is your end goal?
[02:56] <xphox> pat u here
[02:56] <david_> ok, I had the Linksys WUSB54G usb device working for a few (Ubuntu ver 6.06), then rebooted.  Not working now.  Any thoughts?
[02:56] <nosliw_pilf> Hey all. I'm a linux newbie. Relatively. I've got a customization issue. Anyone feel like helping me?
[02:56] <Fryguy--> Sandra24: theres' better ways to do what you are trying to do than reinstalling ssh.  I'd do some more research before committing to this
[02:56] <Sandra24> a nicely chroot jailed sftp, as per that article
[02:56] <riskbreaker> hischild: and if so which do you recommend
[02:56] <Fryguy--> nosliw_pilf: nobody can help you until you ask a question
[02:56] <hischild> riskbreaker, type man powernowd. It explains what you can do with it. You can select one of the 4 modes, but also give it a upper/lower limit and do a lot of other features.
[02:56] <riskbreaker> k
[02:56] <Scunizi> orran_, ok.. in the upper right of the gparted screen you'll see a box (sorta) that might say something like /dev/sda or /dev/sdb.. do you see it?
[02:57] <ClericDelta> sarixe: it will say original filename not available for  'song name'
[02:57] <nosliw_pilf> Well, I figured I'd ask if anyone wanted to help before I just asked my question.
[02:57] <Sandra24> fryguy: I've been at this one all day, and this seems like the simplest, most maintainable solution
[02:57] <xphox> ok nosliw_pilf
[02:57] <xphox> ill help u
[02:57] <orran_> hold on
[02:57] <Scunizi> k
[02:57] <sarixe> ClericDelta : hm... i'm not too sure
[02:57] <Sandra24> Fryguy: I appreciate your concern though :)
[02:57] <hischild> riskbreaker, what profile you choose depends on what you want. Usually the default will suffice
[02:57] <Fryguy--> Sandra24: I'd rather see you run a *nix that supports this type of thing by default, like freebsd
[02:57] <orran_> It's still scanning
[02:57] <coleosis> Could anyone point me in the direction of how I would go about modifying my desktop in Ubuntu, I'm talking about the little widgets that show resources, memory usage, etc. I'd greatly appreciate it.
[02:58] <InSaneGame> xphox
[02:58] <Fryguy--> coleosis: conky, gkrellm will get you started
[02:58] <nosliw_pilf> Any way, my question is: I'm running 7.10, and you know how you can set the top panel to autohide? On my computer, the top panel takes forever to show back up when I mouse over it. Is there any way to set the mouseover time so that it doesn't take as long before the top panel comes back out?
[02:58] <Scunizi> orran_, it's taking way longer than it should
[02:58] <coleosis> Thanks Fryguy--
[02:58] <ClericDelta> sarixe: with 1204 people here, I'm sure theres someone that will.
[02:58] <engcheng> coleosis, how about screenlets, tried that before?
[02:58] <sarixe> ClericDelta : true
[02:58] <coleosis> Nope, what are screenlets?
[02:58] <orran_> I know
[02:58] <orran_> right
[02:58] <ClericDelta> anyone really handy with gtkpod that can help?
[02:59] <Sandra24> Fryguy: Not an option, surely updating openssh isn't that big a deal. The other alternative is to fall back to plain old ftp, which is tempting
[02:59] <a1fa_> i have a 500mhz laptop.. i am debating on xubuntu or ubuntu desktop
[02:59] <a1fa_> what do you suggest?
[02:59] <Sandra24> what would you recommend?
[02:59] <Mr_> hey there. anybody could point me in the right path to upgrade a server version of 6.06 to the latest release?
[03:00] <orran__> my computer doing a lot right now
[03:00] <Scunizi> alfa_, start with xubuntu then if you want you can install ubuntu desktop at the same time with sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[03:00] <Fryguy--> Sandra24: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=451510
[03:00] <Fryguy--> have you bothered to even look at other solutions?
[03:00] <ronandi> any CoreTemp equivalent for linux (working w/ c2d)
[03:00] <Scunizi> orran__, you keep logging out and coming back.. how's that happening?
[03:01] <Lunks> alfanick: u should go for xubuntu
[03:01] <Lunks> alfanick: ram is more important, though
[03:01] <orran__> Wifi
[03:01] <ronandi> .j #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:01] <Scunizi> !upgrade | Mr_
[03:01] <ubotu> Mr_: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:01] <Mr_> ubotu: thanks
[03:01] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[03:02] <david_> how do i properly install the drivers for a wusb54g linksys usb device?
[03:02] <orran__> I'm
[03:02] <josh__> i have the following in my xorg log: (WW) AIGLX: 3D driver claims to not support visual
[03:03] <josh__> using intel 945
[03:03] <orran__> NM
[03:03] <josh__> and compiz-fusion
[03:03] <Sandra24> Fryguy: been going through the alternatives all day, I found scponly, but there were supposedly issues (which I can't recall) with it, it looks more promising from this link. I may try this first, thanks.
[03:04] <orran__> It's still scanning
[03:04] <Scunizi> orran__, has it actually installed?
[03:05] <orran__> yes
[03:05] <Positronic> linksys wireless adapters are annoying :(
[03:05] <Scunizi> orran__, what else is your machine doing that it's so busy with?
[03:05] <orran__> let me see
[03:05] <Netham45> is there any reason I can't access an incoming port 27015 on a new install of Ubuntu Desktop?
[03:06] <riskbreaker> hischild: how do i see the current cpu frequency?
[03:06] <Scunizi> Netham45, from outside your lan?
[03:06] <Netham45> no
[03:06] <Netham45> within
[03:06] <coleosis> Realtek wireless adaptors are also annoying Positronic
[03:06] <orran__> Limewire is open
[03:06] <david_> testing
[03:06] <david_> strange...  i just pulled the plug on the DSL hardline and wireless is working, but it most likely will not work when i reboot
[03:06] <Netham45> realtek sucks way more than linksys on linux, heh
[03:06] <david_> ?
[03:07] <Scunizi> Netham45, that's unusual if you have a program that's already opened that port. what are you running on that port?
[03:07] <Fryguy--> Netham45: the halflife server has to be running to connect to it
[03:07] <coleosis> Glad I have atheros
[03:07] <Netham45> Fryguy--, it is running
[03:07] <josh__> i have (WW) AIGLX: 3D driver claims to not support visual i  my xorg log, intel 945 compiz fuison
[03:07] <Netham45> but I can't even see it through Steam's server browser
[03:07] <shawn__> HELLO ROOM
[03:07] <Fryguy--> Netham45: what IP is it bound to?
[03:07] <Netham45> I've tried Source DM, and normal HLDM
[03:07] <Fryguy--> Netham45: and did it actually start correctly, or were there errors
[03:07] <Netham45> should be on <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:07] <shawn__> I WAS WONDERING WHY MY ATI CARD DRIVER DONT WORK EVEN WHEN I INSTALL THEM IN XORG
[03:08] <Netham45> no errors

[03:08] <david_> dangit
[03:08] <shawn__> can someone help me with this ati driver
[03:09] <Netham45> Fryguy--, it is a brand new install of the server, on a brand new install of Ubuntu Desktop
[03:09] <shawn__> it crashes my xserver everytime
[03:09] <Scunizi> orran__, yep.. helps if you use my nick in the line.

[03:09] <shawn__> yea ati x1300
[03:09] <LjL> shawn__: yes i think we've seen that
[03:09] <Fryguy--> Netham45: sounds like a problem for the halflife server people, not ubuntu
[03:09] <sbingner> any suggestions on a good imap client? evolution is pathetic at staying in sync with the imap server
[03:09] <shawn__> okay whats the most common approch to fixing it
[03:09] <Starnestommy> ogre: modprobe iwl3945?
[03:09] <Netham45> ogre, I think it is just modprobe iwl3945, then depmod
[03:09] <Fryguy--> sbingner: mutt is nice
[03:09] <unop> ogre, modprobe iwl3945
[03:10] <ogre> ahahhahaha I knew it was easy. thanks
[03:10] <red_phoenix> issue: when i press ctrl-alt-del to go to my desktop (i have desktop effects turned on) and then bring back the windows, sometimes a window will pop back up halfway on one workspace and half way on another...
[03:10] <Netham45> Fryguy--, so there is no firewall, etc... built into Ubuntu desktop that may be killing it?
[03:10] <sola1> hey
[03:10] <red_phoenix> how do i fix that?
[03:10] <Fryguy--> Netham45: no
[03:10] <sbingner> Fryguy--, heh I kind of need it to be a GUI
[03:10] <Fryguy--> sbingner: why?
[03:10] <sola1> everytime when i boot ubuntu 7.10 i get this error:  ata2: SRST failed (errno=-16)
[03:11] <orran__> hey
[03:11] <Scunizi> red_phoenix, might be compiz doesn't like your vid card to much.. anyway .. you might get a better answer in #ubuntu-effects
[03:11] <sbingner> Fryguy--, HTML email, display graphics... drag between folders.  You know, convenience

[03:11] <Scunizi> orran__, hey back.. so what's happening now?
[03:11] <mooboo1> want 10-15 times better file system performance in Ubuntu? vote up this idea on Brainstorm - http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/4983/
[03:11] <Fryguy--> sbingner: so then use a gui client.  You seem to know exactly what you want, shouldn't be hard to do a  bit of research to identify the client that suits your needs as closely as possible
[03:11] <Xaosratt> anyone know what the keyboard shortcut is to change between display meta modes? I had a 3d app that dumped me out and did not return to the previous setting
[03:12] <red_phoenix> thanks scunizi
[03:12] <Scunizi> red_phoenix, np
[03:12] <mooboo1> ok :(
[03:12] <sbingner> Fryguy--, evolution is the closest I can find... but it doesn't stay in sync with the imap server
[03:12] <Fryguy--> mooboo1: reiserfs is not "10-15x" faster than ext3, stop trolling and spamming
[03:12] <mooboo1> LjL, how can you made me leave the channel, without it say i got kicked?
[03:12] <LjL> mooboo1: /remove, see freenode.net
[03:12] <mooboo1> Fryguy--, i am talking about reiser4 not reiserfs
[03:13] <shawn__> what does only 2d support mean
[03:13] <shawn__> ?
[03:13] <mooboo1> Fryguy--, reiser4 is 10-15x faster - http://linuxgazette.net/122/TWDT.html#piszcz
[03:13] <shawn__> that it wont help my gaming?
[03:13] <Fryguy--> mooboo1: if you show me a benchmark of reiser4 being consistently 10-15x faster than ext3, I will join the project and write code for it myself
[03:13] <Fryguy--> in real-world, not benchmarks
[03:13] <Sandra24> Fryguy: that link you provided is awesome, I think you will save me a lot of hassles. But I get an error, "can't find your equivalent of ld.so" do you have any ideas?
[03:13] <LjL> !ot | Fryguy--, mooboo1
[03:13] <ubotu> Fryguy--, mooboo1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:13] <Werenerd> shawn__: that means that you wont have 3d accelerarion
[03:14] <tbwnoob> okay
[03:14] <tbwnoob> does that affect my gaming
[03:14] <tbwnoob> will it help me un faster if i still use it?
[03:14] <Starnestommy> it probably will
[03:14] <tbwnoob> run
[03:14] <Werenerd> tbwnoob: yeah, no 3d aceleration means damn slow 3d games
[03:14] <sola1> how can i test my hdds if they are borken?
[03:14] <Fryguy--> Sandra24: no.  All i do is sit here and copy and paste people's questions into google and link to results, since people aren't smart enough to do that themselves
[03:14] <tbwnoob> hmm
[03:15] <tbwnoob> is there a 3d driver for x1300 ati cards?
[03:15] <Fryguy--> tbwnoob: dont' think so
[03:15] <tbwnoob> awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
[03:15] <tbwnoob> mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
[03:15] <tbwnoob> no good
[03:15] <Werenerd> Fryguy--: I don't know crap about ATI, is that an old card?
[03:15] <tbwnoob> no
[03:15] <LjL> tbwnoob, that's unneeded!
[03:15] <Fryguy--> no
[03:15] <tbwnoob> its just a pci

[03:15] <sola1> can i play starcraft or counterstrike source in ubuntu?
[03:16] <Fryguy--> sola1: yes
[03:16] <Sandra24> Fryguy: sorry, don't want you to do that, just wondering if you knew what ld.so was off the top of your head. But I can figure it out. Thanks for your help.
[03:16] <a1fa_> have you guys ever wondered what happens if you do dist-upgrade from debian to ubuntu?

[03:16] <Scunizi> egc yes
[03:16] <Fryguy--> egc: sure

[03:16] <egc> cool

[03:17] <Fryguy--> egc: every virtual machine server i've ever seen allows mounting isos as cdrom devices in the guest
[03:17] <Werenerd> a1fa_: I wouldn't do it. It would be better if  you move your /home to a separate partition, whack the / partition and install ubuntu there

[03:23] <_polto_> can i set my network card to MDI or MDI-X manually using mii-diag ? I can not find anything about in the manual.
[03:23] <a1fa_> _polto_: try ethtool
[03:24] <_polto_> oh thanks
[03:24] <egc> Fryguy--: ok, i found the place where i can specify to install from an image
[03:24] <egc> thanks!
[03:24] <corinne_> I've typed dmseg output and it just sits there blinking at me
[03:24] <Sonja> a1fa_ it didn't say anything when corinne typed it ?
[03:24] <Sonja> i think it's just "dmseg"
[03:24] <a1fa_> sudo dmesg
[03:24] <corinne_> ahh
[03:24] <Sonja> oh, what a1fa_ said
[03:24] <a1fa_> Sonja : why are you helping him?
[03:24] <Sonja> corinne_ come to #ubuntu-women too
[03:25]  * a1fa_ wants to join #ubuntu-women too
[03:25] <Sonja> a1fa_ what?
[03:25] <Tann> amenado: I probably sound really stupid, but how do i setup a default gateway
[03:25] <tbwnoob> that link didnt help me find out how my intel onboard was crashing my xserver when i use ati does anybody know whatw ould cause that
[03:25] <corinne_> sudo: dmseg: command not found
[03:25] <Sonja> corinne_ again for copy it's control shift c
[03:26] <tbwnoob> my xserver crashes and the default drivers dont work with ym ati
[03:26] <a1fa_> Sojna: tail -f /var/log/dmesg
[03:26] <_polto_> a1fa_, sorry, i can not find anything about MDI/MDI-X in ethtool manual too :( any advise ?
[03:26] <a1fa_> duplex?
[03:26] <Sonja> a1fa_ corinne_ should type tail -f /var/log/dmesg in a terminal?
[03:26] <_polto_> a1fa_, what is duplex ?
[03:26] <jeezy28> hey does anybody know how to create computer software
[03:27] <corinne_> AH NOW IT'S DOING SOMETHING
[03:27] <Fryguy--> jeezy28: way too vague, be more specificd
[03:27] <a1fa_> whats MDI MDIX
[03:27] <Scunizi> corinne_, you spelled it dmseg instead of dmesg
[03:27] <Fryguy--> alfa_: a wrapper for some ne2000 type network cards that are somewhat popular in bigbox stores
[03:27] <_polto_> a1fa_, sorry, never heard the term duplex
[03:27] <corinne_> [   18.592000] EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
[03:27] <Sonja> thanks Scunizi
[03:27] <steel_lady> how can I see the movie I have that tells to be encoded in dom-x???
[03:27] <corinne_> ahh
[03:28] <corinne_> well the last thing I did told me that
[03:28] <TaRDy> anybody know how to setup vnc?
[03:28] <jeezy28> Whats the first steps in amking computer software
[03:28] <jeezy28> making
[03:28] <Positronic> planning what you want the software to do
[03:28] <Fryguy--> jeezy28: this is the wrong channel for learning how to program
[03:28] <a1fa_> jeezy28: know what you want to build
[03:28] <a1fa_> :P
[03:28] <Fryguy--> but the first thing would be requirements gathering
[03:28] <_polto_> a1fa_, duplex is about half or full, i need MDI/MDI-X
[03:28] <Sonja> corinne_ did it say anything when you typed that stuffs? you can paste the output of what it said in pastebin.com
[03:29] <a1fa_> epic fail on dist-upgrade :)
[03:29] <corinne_> ok, I did that
[03:29] <Sonja> tell us the pastebin link
[03:29] <a1fa_> corinne_: type in mount
[03:29] <jeezy28> I know wat I want to bulid but I don't know how to build it
[03:29] <tbwnoob> this thing says if my xserver crahses with at1 x1300 to just type sudo envy -t
[03:29] <tbwnoob> and it will fix it
[03:29] <corinne_> http://pastebin.com/m3519bf7f
[03:29] <tbwnoob> is that tru
[03:29] <orran> anyone tell what to do if my computer is still scanning to format my hard drive
[03:30] <metanil> anyone know how to create directory is both cnd and mod1 doesn't exists using ---> mkdir("/home/cnd/mod1", S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IROTH | S_IXOTH);
[03:30] <Fryguy--> jeezy28: so learn how to program and build it.  This is not the right channel to be asking these questions.  Please find a more appropriate location for learning how to program, because this isn' tit
[03:30] <corinne_> I typed in mount, now what?
[03:30] <_polto_> somebody: any idea on how to force my network card to use MDI or MDI-X and not to automatically negotiate it ?
[03:30] <Scunizi> tbwnoob, don't use envy
[03:30] <metanil> anyone know how to create directory if both "cnd" and "mod1" doesn't exists using ---> mkdir("/home/cnd/mod1", S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IROTH | S_IXOTH);??
[03:30] <jeezy28> And were would that be?
[03:31] <Fryguy--> jeezy28: google to start
[03:31] <Fryguy--> jeezy28: or your local college
[03:31] <Fryguy--> jeezy28: or a book
[03:31] <a1fa_> apt-get remove debianutils fixes most of my issues
[03:31] <david_> How are drivers identified?
[03:31] <Invincible_2> HOLA
[03:31] <jrib> metanil: if you are actually doing this in C, it's better to ask in ##c
[03:31] <metanil> oh
[03:32] <metanil> thanks
[03:32] <david_> pardon me, Linksys driver file extensions
[03:32] <jeezy28> Nothing in google tells me how to do it
[03:32] <jeezy28> or a book
[03:32] <corinne_> a1fa, is apt-get remove debianutils for me?
[03:32] <Fryguy--> jeezy28: there are MILLIONS of resources on google about learning how to program
[03:32] <tuvook> lol
[03:32] <a1fa_> corinne_: no
[03:32] <a1fa_> corinne_: dont type that
[03:32] <corinne_> ok
[03:32] <david_> pardon me, Linksys driver file extensions (.sys? or .inf?)
[03:32] <tuvook> this channel is insane!
[03:32] <a1fa_> corinne_: i am doing something stupid
[03:32] <a1fa_> corinne_: type in mount
[03:32] <Positronic> you need the .sys and .inf files if both are available
[03:32] <a1fa_> corinne_: and send to pastebin.ca
[03:32] <jesusccs> hola panas
[03:32] <corinne_> I did type in mount\ok
[03:33] <Werenerd> hey guys, how do I give myself read/write access over samba from my laptop to my desktop shared medai drive?
[03:33] <Fryguy--> jeezy28: show some initiative, or dont' even bother, programming is about doing it yourself, in every aspect
[03:33] <tuvook> Werenerd, #samba
[03:33] <corinne_> \okay, here is what comes up after mount: http://pastebin.com/m337704dc
[03:33] <tuvook> but most will direct you to the samba faq first
[03:34] <tuvook> users must learn how to read faqs and search google
[03:34] <a1fa_> that cant be all
[03:34] <a1fa_> corinne_
[03:34] <david_> keep getting this error:  david@desktop1:~$ sudo ndiswrapper -i WUSB54G.inf Installing wusb54g couldn't copy WUSB54G.inf at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper line 135.
[03:34] <alecwh> What's a good program for editing sound (fading out sound, splitting, adjusting volume...)?
[03:34] <Fryguy--> alecwh: audacity
[03:34] <corinne_> so this time I do put the whole thing
[03:34] <corinne_> ok
[03:34] <tuvook> otherwise it will be hard to get help in a channel with 1100+ users
[03:34] <alecwh> Fryguy--: is that it?
[03:35] <corinne_> http://pastebin.com/m3120a905
[03:35] <Smegzor> how do I fix this?  Synaptic is saying that my copy of linxine1 is not the right version (for a dependency) but in synaptic its listed as installed and the right version.
[03:35] <Fryguy--> alecwh: ?
[03:35] <corinne_> here is the whole thing http://pastebin.com/m3120a905
[03:35] <alecwh> Fryguy--: I mean, is that the only editor worth trying out?
[03:35] <tuvook> then when you return, if you return, there will be a specific query followed by information concerning what you tried to do to get your resolution
[03:35] <Fryguy--> alecwh: no idea, you asked for a suggestion (in the wrong channel), and I gave you one.  google if you want more
[03:35] <a1fa_> also
[03:35] <a1fa_> i want to see your dmesg output please
[03:35] <a1fa_> send your /var/log/dmesg to pastebin.ca
[03:36] <alecwh> Fryguy--: Ok, thanks.
[03:36] <cge> alecwh: I seem to recall that audacity is by far the most commonly used.
[03:36] <corinne_> permission denied
[03:36] <a1fa_> sudo cat /var/log/dmesg
[03:36] <a1fa_> grrr
[03:36] <a1fa_>  :P
[03:36] <Werenerd> tuvook: it is #dead in #samba
[03:36] <david_> by the way...  Hello all.
[03:36] <a1fa_> anyway is there a package name for base system?
[03:36] <corinne_> I've only been using ubuntu for about 3 hours, cut me some slack! :p
[03:36] <Tann> Fryguy: I probably sound really stupid, but how do i setup a default gateway
[03:37] <hischild> a1fa_, << sudo aptitude install pastebinit && dmesg | pastebinit >> ?
[03:37] <tuvook> Werenerd, check the samba faq. The whole web is full of answers to your very common question.
[03:37] <Fryguy--> Tann: set it to be the IP of whatever machine/network device you are connecting to
[03:37] <tuvook> Google samba permissions
[03:37] <Kyro__> ok LOL why is no C compiler included with Ubuntu
[03:37] <Kyro__> :/
[03:37] <Fryguy--> Kyro__: apt-get install build-essential
[03:37] <tuvook> lol
[03:37] <tuvook> gcc?
[03:37] <hischild> Kyro__, there is ... install build-essential and you have it
[03:37] <Netham45> chmod 777 /hlds/* -R
[03:37] <corinne_> http://pastebin.com/d3d41a485
[03:38] <Netham45> fuxxin hell
[03:38] <zcat[1]_> Kyro__: It's a distro for non-geeks. gentoo is that way --->
[03:38] <Kyro__> thats not included on the install cd tho :(
[03:38] <tuvook> search synaptic
[03:38] <dshawkmoon> server irc.islifecorp.com.br
[03:38] <Kyro__> zcat[1], hehehe
[03:38] <cge> I'm afraid this question is rather bizarre, but does anyone here know how one would go about checking, in C, whether a particular directory is in a filesystem that doesn't have normal permissions (eg, fat), so that I can fix bug 69184?
[03:38] <Kyro__> also no open ssl
[03:38] <Fryguy--> I should start using gentoo (or some other distro) again, I'm getting sick of the complete retards in here :(
[03:38] <tuvook> Fryguy--, lol
[03:38] <Fryguy--> cge: this isn't a programming channel, go join ##c
[03:39] <tuvook> its quite sad
[03:39] <a1fa_> dmesg show the same thing CoasterMaster
[03:39] <hischild> Fryguy--, if you don't like it in here, then leave. Nobody's forcing you to use it.
[03:39] <a1fa_> corinne_
[03:39] <Fryguy--> tuvook: i don't really want to use gentoo though, not sure what else is available
[03:39] <corinne_> yes
[03:39] <cge> tuvook: The hostility here is rather depressing as well, unfortunately.
[03:39] <zcat[1]_> slackware!!!
[03:39] <clarjon1> Fryguy--: I like PCLinuxOS...
[03:39] <Fryguy--> hischild: i'm bored, and it's sometimes fun to just copy and paste people's questions into google and link them to the first result for them
[03:39] <tuvook> Fryguy--, just don't bother trying to help, you'll go mad
[03:39] <mg> hi
[03:39] <Kyro__> cge, you should see #chris on WyldRyde
[03:39] <clarjon1> After all, it is free to try...
[03:40] <Kyro__> so much as talk in caps -> Banned
[03:40] <Netham45> well, I feel like an idiot
[03:40] <a1fa_> it looks like your USB port is not working
[03:40] <legend2440> steel_lady:  http://www.sw-archives.com/ looks like you pay for that decoder
[03:40] <a1fa_> try another port
[03:40] <prettyricky> Ubuntu 7.10 for me!
[03:40] <hischild> Fryguy--, i know that one ... sometimes it actually does give answers ...
[03:40] <tuvook> Fryguy--, most of the answers are totally in google or the forums
[03:40] <Netham45> I just spent like an hour troubleshooting why my server wouldn't start, and then I realized I never issued the command to start it...
[03:40] <a78916a78916> 0 \\
[03:40] <corinne_> really? ok, just a second
[03:40] <Tann> Fryguy-- Thanks, that worked, but the internet doesn't work on the comp. Any suggestions
[03:40] <a1fa_> corinne_: double check your cables and everything
[03:40] <Kyro__> Netham45, LOL
[03:40] <tuvook> Fryguy--, does not appear the users are even searching the web for the answers first
[03:40] <Kyro__> thats aweseome ahahha
[03:40] <a1fa_> its not even recognizing that you plugged it in
[03:40] <clarjon1> lol, here's an old joke I found... "Ok, so /quit and /exit are trolling in ##freenode, and /exit gets k-lined.  Who's left?"
[03:41] <Netham45> =/
[03:41] <a1fa_> are there any mini distributions that can fit on 512 mb flash drive?
[03:41] <Fryguy--> Tann: my suggestion is to set up your network correctly.  I have absolutely no idea what type of network topology you have, and #ubuntu is certainly not the place to be diagnosing network problems
[03:41] <Netham45> \o/ it's working now
[03:41] <cpk1> do changes to /etc/sysctl.conf take place immeadiately?
[03:41] <Netham45> now time to make it so I don't have to issue that damn command
[03:41] <Fryguy--> cpk1: no
[03:41] <Kyro__> alfa, id like that too
[03:41] <tuvook> alfa_puppy linux
[03:41] <a1fa_> no
[03:41] <a1fa_> ubunti
[03:41] <a1fa_> mini ubuntu
[03:41] <_polto_> somebody: any idea on how to force my network card to use MDI or MDI-X and not to automatically negotiate it ?
[03:41] <tuvook> oh god no
[03:41] <hischild> a1fa_, create your own mini distro
[03:42] <a1fa_> god no?
[03:42] <Fryguy--> tuvook: i'm thinking about just doing gentoo because I've been using freebsd a lot lately but I don't think it's suitable as a desktop, and gentoo is probably as close as i'm gonna get to it
[03:42] <tuvook> another buntu
[03:42] <a1fa_> hischild: i need something now
[03:42] <a1fa_> i have no time to fuck with that
[03:42] <cge> Tann: Just ignore Fryguy--; what is the problem you're having?
[03:42] <Fryguy--> alfa_: try damn small linux
[03:42] <a1fa_> dude
[03:42] <cdm10> how do I get my UID?
[03:42] <a1fa_> i want ubuntu
[03:42] <hischild> a1fa_, then use the net based installer and go from there?
[03:42] <Kyro__> Fryguy--, good tip
[03:42] <tuvook> Fryguy--, yeah, I got tired of Gentoo about 5 years ago
[03:42] <a1fa_> it wont netboot
[03:42] <a1fa_> i tried it
[03:42] <Fryguy--> cdm10: type id
[03:42] <icesword> a1fa_, what is up
[03:42] <hischild> a1fa_, base install then?
[03:42] <tuvook> it was novel, but I wanted a desktop in less than 20hrs
[03:42] <cdm10> Fryguy--: thanks
[03:42] <a1fa_> yeah
[03:42] <a1fa_> i just need baseinstall
[03:42] <a1fa_> on usb drive
[03:43] <tuvook> puppy
[03:43] <a1fa_> thats my last chance
[03:43] <hischild> a1fa_, then search for that ... there is one ....
[03:43] <cpk1> Fryguy--: so what needs to happen for the changes to take place?
[03:43] <cge> a1fa_: Look into methods for doing it with debian; they should translate rather well.
[03:43] <Fryguy--> tuvook: heh, you can start from stage 3.  I've got a quadcore machine with 4gb ram, so the system would come up quickly
[03:43] <Werenerd> tuvook: I don't understand the difference between public and browsable in smb.conf
[03:43] <tuvook> dsl
[03:43] <Fryguy--> cpk1: reboot, or just manually set the values yourself
[03:43] <Fryguy--> Werenerd: so then read the documentation about it
[03:43] <a1fa_> cge: i just did dist-upgrade
[03:43] <Kyro__> I just installed the gnome-art tool omg its downloading thousands of things without prompting
[03:43] <tuvook> Werenerd, keep reading, and you will :)
[03:43] <a1fa_> it had an epic fail
[03:43] <Fryguy--> Werenerd: join #samba, this isn't it
[03:43] <HardyOne> trying to setup VirtualBox and gettelling me to run /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup but that returns /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: command not found any ideas?
[03:43] <tuvook> Kyro__, its supposed to
[03:43] <cge> a1fa_: ah
[03:43] <corinne_> switched ports and still failing
[03:44] <Kyro__> tuvook, be nice if it said "I am about to download 1,100+ wallpapers, would you like me to?" lol
[03:44] <Werenerd> Fryguy--: I realize that and if you had been paying attention earlier I said it was dead in there
[03:44] <Fryguy--> HardyOne: seems like you don't have virtualbox installed then
[03:44] <tuvook> HardyOne, install virtualbox from the website
[03:44] <tuvook> lol
[03:44] <tuvook> Fryguy--, :)
[03:44] <Fryguy--> Werenerd: so? that doesn't give you the right or reason to go asking in another random channel
[03:44] <Kyro__> virtualbox ftw
[03:44] <HardyOne> tuvook, I did. compiled it
[03:44] <musashi> i have dvds i bought overseas. is there a way to view them in ubuntu if i have a region 1 drive but region 2 dvds without hacking the firmware or changing the region code on the drive?
[03:44] <Meneertje> hi kyro any luck with the usb install?
[03:44] <Werenerd> Fryguy--: I also know that I come in here and answer far simpler questions. I don't think this is so unusual a question to ask in this channel
[03:45] <Fryguy--> Werenerd: we are busy enough helping people in here with legimate problems suitable for this channel.  samba has wonderful documentation, you don't need live help to figure things out youself, check out /usr/share/doc/samba
[03:45] <tuvook> HardyOne, no reason to compile it, just use the .dedb
[03:45] <BaW> Hi!!!
[03:45] <Kyro__> Meneertje, hey ^_^ I gave up got too complicated
[03:45] <_CitizenKane_> I have an error in a startup script, i know how to fix that error, but the error causes the root partition to mount read-only, how can I get around this?
[03:45] <Kyro__> I didn't need it that badly
[03:45] <BaW> I am having a problem with install the 64bit on a quad core
[03:45] <Kyro__> was just messing around
[03:45] <a1fa_> if there is a way to force 7.10 install cd into ncurses install mode.. iw ill be set
[03:45] <Meneertje> wah. it was actually very easy. maybe next time
[03:45] <Fryguy--> _CitizenKane_: remount the root partition as rw
[03:45] <Tann> cge: I am trying to make it so that a computer that connects to my computer using ethernet (eth0) use the internet that comes to my computer via a wireless network (ath0)
[03:45] <Meneertje> :)
[03:45] <_CitizenKane_> Fryguy--, how would i do that?
[03:45] <Fryguy--> alfa_: you need the alternate install disc for that as far as i know
[03:46] <Fryguy--> _CitizenKane_: man mount
[03:46] <Kyro__> Meneertje, yea I still am interested in doing it, I'll just have to try another day when I have more patience :)
[03:46] <tuvook> alfa_ server install
[03:46] <dylmoore> does anyone know how to turn off fast writes on a radeon 9600? I;m having video stuttering problems in wine, and I think that's the reason
[03:46] <a1fa_> damn it dude
[03:46] <tuvook> then add the packages you want
[03:46] <a1fa_> i only have 7.10 cd
[03:46] <cge> a1fa_: I think I've done it before, but it isn't easy.
[03:46] <Kyro__> does the server ubuntu distro come with a c compiler?
[03:46] <Kyro__> I know the client doesnt
[03:46] <tuvook> doubt it
[03:46] <cge> a1fa_: Can you access the internet with the livecd?
[03:46] <Fryguy--> Kyro__: no, a c compiler is available in the build-essential package, as 3 people told you 5 minutes ago
[03:46] <icesword> Kyro__, dpkg -l gcc
[03:47] <a1fa_> cge: its a 233mhz machine :P
[03:47] <a1fa_> but yeah
[03:47] <tuvook> but you can search the server packages page on the ubuntu wiki
[03:47] <_CitizenKane_> Fryguy--, just doing mount will cause it to remount in rw?
[03:47] <a1fa_> it takes 24h to boot into livecd
[03:47] <Meneertje> I have one question, anyone knows how you can switch off "view hidden files", because sometimes I have to switch "view hidden files" on, for example to mess around with icons and such... (.icons) but it seems that it sometimes doesn't want to go back to normal folder view?  Been trying to install 64 bit/desktop onto a intel quad core, however once i boot from the cd, screen goes blank and unable to do anything else
[03:47] <HardyOne> tuvook, I dont see a .deb on the site
[03:47] <Fryguy--> _CitizenKane_: read the manpage, everything you need is in there, or google.  thousands of people have remounted root as RW before
[03:47] <HardyOne> tuvook, got a link?
[03:47] <Adman65> anyone gimme a hand installing themes? I downloaded some from gnomelook.org, but I can't figure out what to do with em
[03:47] <cge> a1fa_: Hmm... that does make things difficult. I suppose you could try booting the livecd into single-user or something.
[03:47]  * Lunks gives Adman65
[03:47] <Fryguy--> Kyro__: and i just provided an answer
[03:47] <tuvook> Meneertje, try rt-click
[03:47] <Tann> amenado: I got the computer to connect to the network, but there is no internet
[03:47] <Meneertje> rt = (right click?)
[03:47] <a1fa_> cge: then what?
[03:48] <Fryguy--> Kyro__: that's how this channel works, you ask questions, and people either ignore you if they dont' know the answer, or they answer them.
[03:48] <Kyro__> Fryguy--, you misunderstood - I was asking if the c compiler was included in the *server* distro not client distro
[03:48] <zero88> Can anyone help me PLEASE.
[03:48] <jojom1> Hi all. Are there any GRUB gurus in the house? I'm trying to install Gutsy from the Live CD and now amount of Googling, is helping.
[03:48] <cge> a1fa_: Basically, if you can get a shell and internet access, you can do a debian style bootstrap install, I believe.
[03:48] <tuvook> Meneertje, yes
[03:48] <Meneertje> ok, i'll try that, thx.
[03:48] <Fryguy--> Kyro__: the server and client ubuntus are exactly the same, same repositories, same everything, the only difference is the default set of packages and an option or 2 in the installer
[03:48] <Karsyth> anyone here that can make sense of this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59995/
[03:48] <Kyro__> I am well aware you answered my client distro question
[03:48] <tuvook> jojom1, how can installing from livecd be a problem?
[03:48] <a1fa_> that sounds good
[03:48] <HardyOne> jojom1, click on the install icon
[03:48] <cge> a1fa_: There isn't any documentation for it, but I did it about a year ago, using debian's instructions but using the ubuntu equivalents.
[03:48] <a1fa_> i've done that before with debian
[03:48] <Kyro__> okay thanks Fryguy--
[03:48] <zero88> Once i put my info into a .h file. what do i do with it?
[03:48] <Agrajag-> g'day, i've done a dist-upgrade to hardy, just wondering if there's a howto or anything on setting up pulseaudio?
[03:49] <cge> a1fa_: Then you should know what to do. It should be almost the same.
