[02:51] <javes_> or whats the difference?
[02:51] <menisk> klick, use the network manager in  the system tray, you have to connect at every boot, not auto.
[02:51] <R3linquish3r> Prospero2008, Yes?
[02:51] <soundray> javes_: /dev/psaux if your laptop is more than 3 or 4 years old.
[02:51] <Zjoske> yes javes_that port is ok (dev/input/mice)

[02:52] <m0u5e> should i be using it with the bundled ubuntu 7.04 wireless built in?
[02:52] <Zjoske> tecnicodelcomput:  i guess if you run that command, you will be able to see if it works? ^o)
[02:52] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: no, how do i do that?

[02:54] <tunedout> Whats my root password if I just installd ubuntu ?
[02:54] <Slart> !root | tunedout
[02:54] <ubotu> tunedout: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:55] <R3linquish3r> Can anyone help me fix apt when install -f and dpkg --configure -a both fail?
[02:55] <aro> _SpitFIRE, that worked, thank you.
[02:55] <Amaranth> NoorulIslaam: That'd be me
[02:55] <Flannel> tunedout: there is none.  Ubuntu doesn't use the root account, use sudo instead.
[02:55] <Slart> tunedout: you don't have to use root
[02:55] <Amaranth> NoorulIslaam: File a bug if you have a problem with it :)
[02:55] <_SpitFIRE> aro: :)
[02:55] <tecnicodelcomput> i have an ATI with Restricted Driver enabled, the opengl works, beryl-manager is working at startup.
[02:55] <NoorulIslaam> Amaranth, where do i download it from?
[02:55] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: i use yaboot rather than grub, but yes
[02:55] <Amaranth> NoorulIslaam: it's included in ubuntu by default
[02:55] <tecnicodelcomput> but how can i use beryl?
[02:55] <Amaranth> since dapper
[02:55] <Slart> tunedout: "sudo command" runs the command as if root would have done it.. it asks for a password.. that's your USER password.. not the root password
[02:55] <NoorulIslaam> Amaranth, oh btw... since its you.. perhaps you could help me with a problem
[02:56] <klick> menisk, they are both installed

[02:56] <zigico> who can help me how to "su root" i have one user ??
[02:56] <NoorulIslaam> Amaranth, i'm making a program that needs to add/remove application entries from the menu at runtime, on a per-user basis
[02:56] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: good enough I guess =).. but you get at least 2 choices, right? normal boot with kernel bla bla bla and recovery mode.. right?
[02:56] <vm> hrm, i just installed "Slab" from automatix how to I enable it, anyone know?
[02:56] <Flannel> zigico: You don't.  Use sudo, not su.
[02:56] <scales11> vox754:  do you know if madwifi is the driver used by default?  or how i could check
[02:56] <jrib> !sudo > zigico (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:56] <Flannel> !automatix | vm
[02:56] <ubotu> vm: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:56] <Amaranth> NoorulIslaam: xdg-utils
[02:56] <tunedout> thanks
[02:56] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: the options there are 'Linux' and 'old'
[02:56] <zigico> Flannel: I have not password for root
[02:56] <menisk> klick, hmm
[02:57] <NoorulIslaam> Amaranth, according to the specs, per-user goes in ~/.local/share/applications/*.desktop, but entries there aren't being picked up
[02:57] <Ubulindy> can someone tell me how to recover my password for this IRC, cant find pswrd help in nickserv?
[02:57] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: ok.. can you edit the "Linux" boot in some way?
[02:57] <Flannel> zigico: exactly.  Don't use su, use sudo.  You use your userpassword, not the root password when it asks
[02:57] <NoorulIslaam> Amaranth, hmm
[02:57] <vox754> scales11, try "lsmod" it lists the modules loaded, maybe "lsmod | grep madwifi"
[02:57] <Amaranth> NoorulIslaam: xdg-utils :)
[02:57] <R3linquish3r> Can anyone help me fix apt when install -f and dpkg --configure -a both fail?
[02:57] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: add switches, chose what kernel to boot from etc?
[02:57] <vm> Flannel...i know that, i have been using it for a few days, i just installed Slab, (from inside automatix) was wondering it anyone knows how to enable it
[02:57] <klick> menisk, i figured out how to add the network monitor to the sys try, but not sure how to tell it to connect to a WPA network
[02:57] <zigico> Flannel: ok tnx
[02:57] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: i think i can type a custom one at the prompt as well as selecting one of the two
[02:57] <Flannel> vm: Automatix is not supported here
[02:57] <moDumass> hey all, how would i check to see if maby i did jsut run out of disk space

[02:58] <moDumass> im not sure what kind of disk space my install took
[02:58] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: ok.. if you chose that custom one, what do you get? a blank line? something already filled in?
[02:58] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: a blank line
[02:58] <tecnicodelcomput> ok i restart the Xorg with Composite Extension enabled
[02:58] <barbarella_me> R3linquish3r:can you pastebin your error output from the command apt-get install <package>
[02:58] <moDumass> also how would i regain some space, like emptying my trash form command line
[02:58] <R3linquish3r> barbarella_me, stand by ill send u a message
[02:58] <Flannel> moDumass: sudo apt-get clean
[02:58] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: ok.. I'll see what my grub boot says.. perhaps we can work something out... hang on
[02:58] <menisk> klick, left click, connect to other wireless network. Choose WPA personal. put in your password, choose tkip or AES, depending on which you use and that should be it.
[02:59] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart:  thanks
[02:59] <Holliday> Still no luck with nvidia drivers.
[02:59] <emory> Same
[02:59] <scales11> vox754: grep madwifi didnt return anything
[03:00] <NoorulIslaam> Amaranth, should i execute the scripts from my app, or put the relevant code into the app itself?
[03:00] <moDumass> oh my gosh i think i jsut ran out of hdd space
[03:00] <zigico> howto install speedtouch 330 usb modem ??
[03:00] <Amaranth> NoorulIslaam: either way you want
[03:00] <emory> can anyone tell me what is wrong with this X log?  http://paste.stgraber.org/850 I'm having troubles with resolutions using Nvidia Restricted Driver
[03:00] <disinterested> is there any command where i could get gaim's out put?
[03:00] <tunedout> how do I exit X ?
[03:00] <moDumass> which hmmm, so how do i give myself more hdd on the linux partition?
[03:00] <NoorulIslaam> Amaranth, its compatible with the major distros right? or is it just an ubuntu thing?
[03:01] <vox754> scales11, well, you know your system better than I do, so you need to know the module name in order to blacklist it and use ndiswrapper, check the forums, probably someone has done it before
[03:01] <Amaranth> NoorulIslaam: it's compatible with KDE and GNOME on every distro
[03:01] <NoorulIslaam> Amaranth, ok thanks
[03:01] <scales11> i know the module name, i will check the forums
[03:01] <tunedout> how do I exit X
[03:01] <fiveiron> ok so if the system just says that a full speed USB device is detected and is "using ohci_hcd and address 4", but its not mounted anywhere and isn't detected as a /dev node, is there a way to mount the device?
[03:01] <barbarella_me> R3linquish3r:whooow, you can better pasbin it
[03:01] <Holliday> tunedout, I've been told sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:02] <vox754> !modem
[03:02] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto

[03:04] <xtknight> fiveiron, pastebin "lsusb"
[03:04] <xtknight> that info apparently says the USB device is connected and the hub is powered, but nothing more
[03:04] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: can you change it? or this is just a readable copy?
[03:04] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: i can change it

[03:05] <Jordan_U> expert_pc, Are you using fglrx?
[03:06] <R3linquish3r> barbarella_me, it seems the root of the problem is capplets-data. ive tried removing it itself and also installing from a deb and i get that same error message from it
[03:06] <expert_pc> bruenig yes i use fglrx
[03:06] <moDumass> i have 2 hdds, 1 is a 200gig hdd ntfs, and the other is a 160 gig hdd that has winxp and ubuntu sintalled on it, now im looking at disk usage analyser and it says

[03:06] <bruenig> expert_pc, that was Jordan_U

[03:06] <moDumass> then media 71%

[03:07] <d2dchat> where is my path variable ?
[03:07] <Jordan_U> expert_pc, You need to either use the open source ATi drivers instead, or set up XGL. But XGL is a hack :(
[03:07] <R3linquish3r> barbarella_me, nope never found that command in my forum travels. will try it now stand by

[03:07] <xtknight> fiveiron, which device is it?
[03:07] <d2dchat> vox754: how do i add to it?
[03:07] <arro> bruenig, what program do you use to write cd (I found a cd)?
[03:08] <Jordan_U> expert_pc, Did you get 3D acceleration before installing fglrx?
[03:08] <bruenig> arro, are you on linux?
[03:08] <fiveiron> xtknight: the "Pixart Imaging, Inc" ... its a USB keychain picture displayer that my mom bought... wanting to put some pics on it for her
[03:08] <R3linquish3r> barbarella_me, same error as line 13 in the pastebin
[03:08] <vox754> d2dchat, "PATH=/new/path:$PATH"    permanent changes can go in the file ~/.bashrc

[03:09] <NemesisD> barbarella_me, you still there?
[03:09] <arro> bruenig, in the command line?
[03:09] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: do that... I'll be  here
[03:09] <Jordan_U> expert_pc, Then disable fglrx in the restricted driver manager and beryl / compiz should work
[03:09] <bruenig> arro, yeah, and make sure you replace the whatever and path
[03:09] <xtknight> fiveiron, ah, okay.  type "sudo lshw" and pastebin that please also
[03:09] <arro> bruenig, THankyou
[03:09] <xtknight> fiveiron, it does detect the device's name, though that doesn't necessarily mean it has a driver.  with pasting lshw we can check that
[03:09] <moDumass> ok, it looks like its fixed, im just going to restart to see that its all good
[03:10] <Xenos767> Does anyone know how I can get Steam.msi working?
[03:10] <NemesisD> can someone tell me why sed 's/oldpassword/new-password/g' *.php not work and instead just gives me a long reading of source code
[03:10] <expert_pc> ok i disable restricted driver manager & i reboot
[03:11] <usser> Xenos767: whats a steam.msi what are trying to do?

[03:12] <R3linquish3r> barbarella_me, tells me to use install -f
[03:13] <xtknight> fiveiron, sadly, ubuntu did not find a driver for it
[03:13] <xtknight> fiveiron, under configuration: there would be  a driver=.  somebody may have created a driver for it online, though
[03:13] <xtknight> search for pixart driver, perhaps
[03:13] <barbarella_me> R3linquish3r:that's all it said
[03:13] <NemesisD> barbarella_me, i did that then I did cat *.php|grep 'new-password' and got nothing
[03:14] <R3linquish3r> barbarella_me, also says the following packages have unmet dependencies which after that is blank
[03:14] <fiveiron> xtknight: would there be any way to, erm, force it to use a certain driver, i.e. "usb-storage"?
[03:15] <barbarella_me> R3linquish3r:can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list?

[03:16] <Zjoske> photoshop i want it on ubuntu, but photoshop cs, cs2, cs3 won't work in wine...
[03:16] <m0u5e> inscape is pretty good
[03:16] <MrKeuner> hi, sometimes gnome windows that has been maximized cannot be unmaximized. does anybody else has that problem? it is very annoying, you click on unmaximize and instead of going back to the previous dimension before maximized, it just unmaximizes just a very little bit that you can hardly catch the windows form its edges and shrink it dragging it with the mouse. Is it a bug? If yes, it has been there since i knew myself.
[03:16] <m0u5e> i played around in it
[03:16] <m0u5e> havent heard of xara yet though, ill check it out
[03:16] <R3linquish3r> Zjoske, photoshop 8 works
[03:17] <NemesisD> barbarella_me, sorry to hear that
[03:17] <xtknight> fiveiron, not really
[03:17] <Zjoske> does it work with all features R3linquish3r?
[03:17] <xtknight> fiveiron, unless you are certain usb-storage can provide the necessary facilities, that is very dangerous
[03:17] <m0u5e> i wish someone would just go ahead and create an opensource driver for mice
[03:17] <m0u5e> this imwheel xfree nonsense is quite annoying
[03:17] <R3linquish3r> Zjoske, havent messed with it in about a year but from what i remember yes
[03:17] <khaije1> anyone know how i can uninstall SMART drive monitoring on my HDD?
[03:17] <Jordan_U> R3linquish3r, What happens when you run: sudo apt-get -f install
[03:18] <Zjoske> R3linquish3r: (any link to photoshop 8 download?) would be very helpful..
[03:18] <expert_pc> hi, i disable restricted manager & i when i run beryl on terminal i have Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"
[03:18] <R3linquish3r> Zjoske, sorry no. dont want to get kicked out of the channel for pirating :)
[03:18] <NemesisD> are there any text editors that can fine and replace text in multiple files then, since sed isn't working?

[03:18] <Squirrely_Wrath> Got a Newbie question.  I installed ubuntu on my computer about a week ago.  It is on its own partition.  I also have windows xp on a seperate NTFS partition.  the Ubuntu OS is starting first by default when I want to be able to choose which OS. Is htere any relatively easy way to remedy this issue?  By the way, I am using Feisty Fawn.
[03:18] <expert_pc> & my windows now are without title bar.
[03:18] <tunedout> I exited X and tried installing the driver but it still said X is still running anyone know how to install GeForce 4  drivers ?

[03:19] <Jordan_U> expert_pc, ( pastebin )
[03:19] <jexlp> Right, and beryl requires 3d acceleration, so you need to have proper drivers installed. Are you using nvidia or ATI?

[03:40] <Graveling> whats the go with usb->serial devices? I have one I need to install for serial telescope control. any guesses how I might install it? It was hard enough to install with xp
[03:40] <oz> evening, I'm installing from the live CD atm the feisty 7.04 i386 one, did manual partitioning, and every time it goes to format the chosen partition as ext3 it fails, but if I choose ext2 it works, can anyone tell me why its doing this, it does it on both my SATA and EIDE drives.
[03:40] <Croctillo> I need help.
[03:40] <Croctillo> When I start GParted it says there is no disklabel and the partition is gone.
[03:40] <jrib> oz: ok, but wait more than 3 minutes to repeat
[03:40] <oz> :|
[03:40] <Croctillo> But Ubuntu still works.
[03:41] <jrib> oz: does it give you a more descriptive error message than that?  Do past versions of ubuntu work?
[03:41] <zengkhol> guys, i have aspire 5050 with hda_ati sound, before i upgraded to feisty the sound is normal. But now everytime i boot up the sound is gone. I have to manually increase the surround to get the sound working. Any idea what's happening to my feisty ?
[03:41] <rtfm_4> Linux doesn't like me
[03:41] <Squirrely_Wrath> wow...well I found the list and whatnot,  now if I knew how to tell whwat the info is. lol
[03:42] <vox754> oz, I suggest creating the partitions before installing, you can use the same Live CD or try Knoppix or GParted ones, then after you've created and formated the partitions you may install on them
[03:42] <Pupeno> Anyone tried home-encrypted on Ubuntu using Luks, like what it is described on http://pupeno.com/2006/12/17/encrypted-home-in-ubuntu-or-kubuntu-or-debian/ with Ubuntu 7.04?
[03:42] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: for some reason it's booting to a console every time now :S
[03:42] <oz> I've been trying to get Ubuntu working for a week, the first time around it corrupted all my fat32/ntfs partitions, I lost 13,000 mp3's and over 600 GB of anime :( I jusr want to get it working
[03:42] <Croctillo> Can someone please help?
[03:42] <miyako> has anyone experienced a problem in fiesty with desktop effects (either compiz that is installed by default, or beryl from the multiverse repos) not showing window decorations?  Could anyone offer some thoughts on how to fix the problem?
[03:42] <expert_pc> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20567/ why beryl fails?
[03:43] <bruenig> miyako, #ubuntu-effects
[03:43] <miyako> bruenig: thanks
[03:43] <jrib> !please > Croctillo (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:43] <sldkfj> oz, ouch, I'm sorry to hear that.
[03:43] <vox754> oz, haha at you.... no, but seriously, backup anyone?   That is a shame.
[03:43] <bruenig> expert_pc,, #ubuntu-effects
[03:43] <Croctillo> But every time I come in here no one helps... with anything.
[03:43] <Rictoo> how would I change the horizontal and vertical freq of my monitor in xorg.conf? Where is the option?
[03:43] <oz> vox754: got a link to instructions on how to use the gparted on?
[03:44] <oz> one*
[03:44] <sldkfj> croctillo, yep, I know the feeling.
[03:44] <jrib> Croctillo: it's not on purpose I'm sure, it's probably because no one knows how to fix the issues you are having
[03:44] <vox754> oz, it is quite straight graphical interface, no problems with it. I would prefer using the QTParted version included in Knoppix CD but it is up to you.
[03:44] <jrib> Croctillo: try the forums or mailing list when that happens
[03:44] <Croctillo> But anyways, I am running Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04 on a Toshiba laptop. When I start the GParted program my disklabel is gone and my partition has been deleted.
[03:44] <theguyonthecouch> hey
[03:44] <Jordan_U> Rictoo, It is probably easiest to use the debian configuring tool for xorg.conf with: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:44] <Squirrely_Wrath> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20568/   There is my boot grub menu list
[03:45] <oz> is there not one on this live cd?
[03:45] <Rictoo> ok, thanks Jordan_U
[03:45] <theguyonthecouch> trying to share my internet connection between two ubuntu pc's , cant figure out what im doing wrong
[03:45] <Squirrely_Wrath> If you can tell me what I should change and where that would be greatly appreciated.
[03:45] <oz> theguyonthecouch: no router?
[03:45] <theguyonthecouch> im using my first computer as the router
[03:45] <oz> they are cheap nowadays
[03:45] <theguyonthecouch> well, trying to
[03:45] <theguyonthecouch> yeah
[03:45] <theguyonthecouch> so am i
[03:46] <oz> linksys + dmz ftw
[03:46] <vox754> oz, yes GParted is included in the Ubuntu CD, so you can use it right now. But use it before running the installer.
[03:47] <CptFuzzy> linksys + WRT-DD :)
[03:47] <vm> is there like a task manager in linux?
[03:47] <theguyonthecouch> if anyone can take a look and see where i went wrong i'd appreciate it, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20569/
[03:47] <oz> I found a 8 port gigabit wireless router/switch @ the first saturday sale last month for 20 bucks

[03:47] <wastrel> theguyonthecouch:  it's dead simple with firestarter
[03:47] <CptFuzzy> KSysGuard
[03:48] <CptFuzzy> theguyonthecouch: what are you have trouble with (i'm try to catch up?) is your boot not working?
[03:48] <barbarella_me> oz:whow, that is cheap.
[03:48] <disinterested> can somebody help me fix gaim?
[03:48] <theguyonthecouch> well im trying to get a second computer on the internet, using the first as a router
[03:48] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: hmm.. that's odd
[03:49] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: even if you pick the first option?
[03:49] <ic3> Hello, my ubuntu doesn't boot, i always got a error..
[03:49] <theguyonthecouch> eth0 is my cable modem, and eth2 is going out to the second computer
[03:49] <theguyonthecouch> but i cant seem to find it on the second computer
[03:49] <theguyonthecouch> inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>  Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS>  Mask:<IP_ADDRESS>
[03:49] <bluefox83> theguyonthecouch, it'll be eth0 on the second machine
[03:49] <aidan> the default print drivers for my printer sucks. I notice my printer has Mac OSX drivers, can I somehow port them to ubuntu?
[03:50] <theguyonthecouch> which of these is the ip / subnet/gate way ?
[03:50] <Graveling> no bites on the usb-> serial device issue?
[03:50] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: where is your windows partition?
[03:50] <wastrel> aidan:  find the ppd that's being used on osx and you may be able to use it on linux
[03:50] <Squirrely_Wrath> um....is there an easy wau to figure that out.  by loading qtparte or something?
[03:50] <Squirrely_Wrath> qtparted*
[03:50] <SeveredCross> Can any of you leet Bash hackers help me figure out how to make find move a whole crapton of jpg's  into one folder?
[03:50] <oz> Vox: will is there any partitioning tools for windows, that will do ext3
[03:51] <SeveredCross> I know the command to find them all, find /path/ -type f -name "*.jpg" will do it, but I can't figure out how to move them.
[03:51] <ic3> I ALWAYS got this error: hdc: ide_intr: huh? expected NULL handler on exit (2x); plus Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 357564
[03:51] <jp834618> how do i enable universe, multiverse and restricted repositories?
[03:51] <SeveredCross> oz: Partition Magic will do it.
[03:51] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: oddly enough, the recovery option you gave me isn't even in the list...
[03:51] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: wow, first, remove some of those old kernels.  Use a package manager and just emove the linux-image-[version] -(generic|386)  All but two is usually a safe method
[03:51] <SeveredCross> So will Acronis Disk Editor I think
[03:51] <Flannel> !universe | jp834618
[03:51] <ubotu> jp834618: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[03:51] <CptFuzzy> find -type f -iname '*.jpg' -exec mv -vf {} /new/folder/ \;
[03:51] <SeveredCross> Thank you CptFuzzy :)
[03:51] <aro> Are there advantages to using a non-generic kernel?
[03:51] <oz> ok brb time to visit piratebay
[03:51] <CptFuzzy> find /source/folder -type f -iname '*.jpg' -exec mv -vf {} /new/folder/ \;
[03:51] <vm> does anyone know how to open the "Istanbul recorder" preferences?
[03:51] <bluefox83> SeveredCross, if you are moving all of the jpegs in one folder it's simply mv *.jpg /new/folder
[03:51] <vox754> oz, you don't need windows to handle partitioning, you can partition using a live cd like Knoppix or GParted cd. Remember that you can only partition drives that are not mounted or in use.
[03:51] <dss> hola
[03:51] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: could the software have a backup somewhere? so it just rewrites the config file? that doesn't even make sense
[03:51] <Squirrely_Wrath> Flannel: lol, remember.  I am a nOOb when it comes to linus.  don't have the slightest idea how to do that but I will give it a look see
[03:51] <wastrel> CptFuzzy, SeveredCross that'll overwrite files that have the same filename in the desitnation directory
[03:52] <CptFuzzy> this is recursive too
[03:52] <barbarella_me> theguyonthecouch:can you pastebin your ifconfig?
[03:52] <oz> that requires downloading a cd
[03:52] <Squirrely_Wrath> linux*
[03:52] <CptFuzzy> man mv for backup options
[03:52] <oz> dowsn't it?
[03:52] <oz> doesn't*
[03:52] <aidan> wastrel: ppd?
[03:52] <Beowulf_Lives> could somebody tell me how to save installation log files for 7.04 over network during installation?
[03:52] <bluefox83> anyone here know how to do NFS ?
[03:52] <jrib> Squirrely_Wrath: that will overwrite jpg's with the same name but in different directories
[03:52] <SeveredCross> wastrel: There are no duplicate filenames. :)
[03:52] <ic3> Noone can help me? My ubuntu never boots, neither with CD... Always the same error, already md5 checked the entire CD...
[03:52] <jrib> erm too late
[03:52] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: open up synaptic (System > Admin > Synapic Package Manager) then search for "linux-image", it'll return a bunch, remove the lower numbered ones. (keep two versions)
[03:52] <bluefox83> !nfs
[03:52] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[03:52] <NemesisD> guys, im trying to make an htaccess and htpassword file but doesn't the password need to be encrypted, and if so, how do i do it?
[03:52] <Squirrely_Wrath> lolk, will give that a shot
[03:53] <vox754> oz, you are certainly doing something strange or you have strange hardware if you cannot partition using the Ubuntu CD
[03:53] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: i suspect it might. the way yaboot works is it reads the .conf file and uses it to compile a binary
[03:53] <oz> ic3: check your bios, make sure boot from cd is enabled
[03:53] <iMacThere4iAm> so i can't decompile the binary to find out what it's doing lol
[03:53] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: oh.. but you can boot into recovery mode now, at least? =)
[03:54] <oz> vox when you say "a live cd like Knoppix or GParted cd." do you mean a separate cd?
[03:54] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: also, you probably don't want the 386 kernels, Just the -generic ones.  So, remove linux-386 linux-image-386 linux-restricted-modules-386 and actually, all of the 386 kernels
[03:54] <oz> from this ubuntu live cd?
[03:54] <wastrel> aidan:  ppd is sortof like the driver file for cups. osx uses cups and so does ubuntu, so you may be able to use the osx ppd file on the ubuntu side.  check /etc/cups/ppd on osx maybe
[03:54] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: yes :) i'm going resetting it to the default as generated by the installer and see wha happens
[03:54] <felixhummel> where can I tweak/disable fsck at boot time?
[03:54] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: since you don't want to use the 386 ones, just the generic ones
[03:54] <ic3> oz, yes, I got to the menu with "livecd/install" things, then i press enter, some time pass, and i get this:
[03:54] <icebreeze> hey is there an aac plugin for gstreamer 10?  i can't seem to find it
[03:54] <ic3> I ALWAYS got this error: hdc: ide_intr: huh? expected NULL handler on exit (2x); plus Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 357564
[03:54] <expert_pc> now this is my beryl message after installing XGL http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20570/
[03:54] <SeveredCross> Thanks CptFuzzy, that did the trick. :)
[03:54] <vox754> oz, yes, those are separate CDs. If you don't mind getting them, they may come handy.
[03:55] <BZWingZero> Anyone have a second, I tried setting my system to use the proprietary ATi drivers and now X will not start. I have a root prompt. Can you help me revert it?
[03:55] <aidan> wastrel: ah, okay I can get the CUPS driver
[03:55] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: well.. about the freezing.. all this mucking around in boot menues was just so you could read the logs..  there might be sometihng in /var/log/syslog.. it might be in /var/log/kern.log ... look at the timestamps and try to find out what software is dying on you.. then you can start thinking about why it's dying
[03:55] <expert_pc> someone can help me solve beryl error? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20570/
[03:56] <aidan> okay, how do I extract the .dmg :P
[03:56] <Squirrely_Wrath> Removed all the ones I felt safe removing, I think there are still 4 at the moment.  want me to re-post boot list in astebin?

[03:56] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: the only thing I changed in that config file was the "append" option.. "instead of the normal stuff there I just put "single" .. that's what my ubuntu install has as the "recovery option"
[03:56] <Slart> iMacThere4iAm: I have to get to bed.. it's getting late here
[03:57] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: nah, you don't need to
[03:57] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: same here
[03:57] <iMacThere4iAm> Slart: thanks for your help
[03:57] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: you just need to know which partition/harddrive windows is on
[03:57] <Slart> good night and good luck
[03:57] <eAi> I've added a line: "/dev/sda1 /media/disk vfat rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077 0 0" to my fstab file, coped from mtab and if its there, I can no longer mount the disk - anyone know why?
[03:57] <iMacThere4iAm> cheers

[03:57] <Squirrely_Wrath> Flannel: how do I find that out?

[04:05] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: The only things you might need to change is hd0,4;  the 4 might need to change to a 2, depending on which partition has the OS.  Also, the "root" (on that same line) might need to become "rootnoverify"
[04:05] <vox754> arro, type "eject"
[04:05] <jaevel> ok... i keep getting an error "su returned an error"...
[04:06] <eAi> bruenig: any idea?
[04:06] <arro> eAi, I is what vox754 said what you meant by brute force?
[04:06] <variant> jaevel: use sudo -i to become root. not su
[04:06] <Xexyz> I have a 2nd hdd that is read only can anyone help?...it won't let me remove files
[04:06] <variant> Xexyz: file system?
[04:06] <eAi> or anyone know why this fstab doesn't work (last drive refuses to mount)? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20572/
[04:06] <bulmer> Xexyz: is it mounted read only?
[04:06] <CptFuzzy> what fs ?
[04:06] <eAi> file system?
[04:07] <vox754> arro, no brute force is actually using the hands and all, you know muscles
[04:07] <jaevel> variant: says im not in the sudoers files
[04:07] <ElectricMonk> i had a r/o prob with ntfs
[04:07] <ttjl> i get an error with failiure at  /home/tom/.fgfs/autosave.xml
[04:07] <Squirrely_Wrath> Okay, sda 3 had win 95 extended, and sda 5 had ntfs, so which should I put and would I make that hd0,3 or hd0,5 for windows to show?
[04:07] <ttjl> does anyone know how to resolve that
[04:07] <Xexyz> ntfs
[04:07] <arro> oh, I don't think my computer would appreciate that
[04:07] <variant> jaevel: as the adminstrative user add your self to the admin group to use sudo with ubuntu
[04:07] <CptFuzzy> Xexyz, ElectricMonk: install ntfs-3g
[04:07] <variant> Xexyz: you need to enable fuse/ntfs write support to be able to write
[04:07] <variant> !ntfs-3g | Xexyz
[04:07] <ubotu> Xexyz: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:08] <jaevel> variant: im am in the administrator group
[04:08] <ElectricMonk> yeah, i already maneged to convert to fat32
[04:08] <eAi> arro, once you pull the drive out a few millimetres they normally open as normal
[04:08] <variant> jaevel: in that case you made some changes that have borked it
[04:08] <jaevel> variant: im sure i did, anyway to fix it?
[04:08] <vulcan40> anyone running Desktop Effects without problems??
[04:09] <variant> jaevel: fix whatever you broke :/
[04:09] <ElectricMonk> can I safely convert fat32 to jfs3 without losing any data ?
[04:09] <Flannel> ElectricMonk: most likely not
[04:09] <jaevel> variant: well, i need to get into User Management to do so.. ?
[04:09] <Flannel> jaevel: correct.  Use the user that is an administrator on that machine
[04:09] <variant> jaevel: live cd time or single user mode
[04:10] <vulcan40> so exactly what file system does ubuntu use?
[04:10] <eAi> ext3 normally I think?
[04:10] <CptFuzzy> whatever you tell it to at install time
[04:10] <bulmer> several
[04:10] <Flannel> vulcan40: almost anyone you want.  ext3 is default though
[04:10] <variant> ElectricMonk: if you make a copy of your files, format the fat partition as jfs then copy your files back then yes#
[04:10] <CptFuzzy> ext3 is default
[04:10] <jaevel> variant: im am the admin, thats my problem ;)
[04:10] <Squirrely_Wrath> Okay, quick question.  if I make the changes and I messed up on the drive info, all I gotta do is reboot and choose to boot into ubuntu so I can come back here for help, correct?
[04:10] <variant> jaevel: if you can't become root your not the admin
[04:10] <vulcan40> no wonder I was confused lol
[04:10] <Flannel> jaevel: Did this install finish normally?  Since, this sounds like an install that didnt complete
[04:10] <variant> jaevel: reboot to single user mode or chroot from a live cd
[04:10] <bulmer> there are several FS used in ubuntu
[04:10] <ElectricMonk> yeah that would be an option if I had a temporary place to put them
[04:11] <shawn34> trying to add action to nautilus with the nautilus gui, but not showing up when i test it
[04:11] <ElectricMonk> no matter, its a backup drive
[04:11] <ElectricMonk> thanks anyway
[04:11] <BZWingZero> Pyrops: I did that, and rebooted. came back up to a prompt and I tried sudo startx and it came back with "Fatal server error: no screens found"
[04:11] <jaevel> Flannel: this was a completly working system fresh install, till i made a mistake...
[04:11] <griswald> hello, can wise people tell me if it is good to upgrade from dapper>edgy>feisty?
[04:11] <griswald> or should i stay with dapper
[04:12] <CptFuzzy> feisty is nice
[04:12] <Flannel> jaevel: ah.  Made a mistake.  Ok, well, reboot, at grub, choose "recovery console" then add your user to the admin group, with usermod
[04:12] <jaevel> variant: how do i get into "single user" mode?
[04:12] <griswald> hmm
[04:12] <vox754> Squirrely_Wrath, yes
[04:12] <Pijiu> My monitor only has 640x480 Screen Resolution available, how do I correct this so it runs 1360x768
[04:12] <jaevel> variant: just load live dc?
[04:12] <OscarM> good night
[04:12] <Squirrely_Wrath> Here goes nothing!  * holds breath *  and thanks again for the help y'all.
[04:12] <Flannel> Squirrely_Wrath: you can also edit those things at the grub menu, with 'e' (while highlighting them) to sort of shotgun debug your correct partition
[04:13] <griswald> CptFuzzy: i have a bcm4306 wireless built in will it still be supported in fiesty
[04:13] <gaten> griswald: i just installed feisty on another partition seperate from dapper, im liking feisty
[04:13] <griswald> gaten: hmm ok
[04:13] <Squirrely_Wrath> okay.  will make a note of that flannel.  thanks.

[04:30] <wastrel> outRider:  ok, try dropping to a console,  ctrl-alt-f1 (ctrl-alt-f7 to return)

[04:31] <rtfm_4> I'm running off the live cd, trying to install ubuntu onto a usb external harddrive. I don't want to install a bootmanager onto my internal drive. i have the advanced dialog box open on the last part of the install screen where I type in where I want to install grub. Can I just leave it blank to not install the boot manager ?
[04:32] <Xexyz> it says install.sh
[04:32] <EADG> Xexyz: in a term type sh install.sh
[04:33] <outRider> wastrel, i dont see gnome panel running at all, the error only happened once, its just that every time i log on now the panels arent started
[04:34] <Xexyz> x@PC:~$ sh install.sh
[04:34] <Xexyz> sh: Can't open install.sh
[04:34] <Xexyz> x@PC:~$
[04:34] <outRider> sh ./install.sh maybe
[04:34] <EADG> Xexyz: lets try that with 'sudo sh install.sh'
[04:34] <KiloHertz> Hi all.
[04:34] <Flannel> no.  Its the former.  ./install.sd
[04:35] <Punkunity> i need help getting my DVDRW to play DVDs, it already can play CDs and Burn CDs, but I cant play DVDs
[04:35] <vox754> rtfm_4, I think for that you really need the alternate installation disk
[04:35] <Punkunity> ive used almost every player there is
[04:35] <GreyKing> Does anyone know of any software to copy a cd onto an ISO?
[04:36] <Xexyz> ./install.sh" as root....how do install as root?
[04:36] <Pijiu> Intel 800/900 Series VBIOS Hack : version 0.5.2
[04:36] <Pijiu> Unable to obtain the proper IO permissions: Operation not permitted
[04:36] <vox754> rtfm_4, But why wouldn't you install the boot loader in the external USB?
[04:36] <wastrel> outRider:  i dunno, i'm not familiar with how gnome manages its startup stuff.
[04:36] <rtfm_4> vox754, can i specify the usb hd in that field, and will that work. I don't care that it installs it there, i just have to leave the laptop as is because its owned by my company
[04:36] <EADG> Xexyz: sudo ./install.sh
[04:36] <jp834618> why would cinelerra not be found in repositories?
[04:37] <Xexyz> asks for password
[04:37] <shawn34> Xexyz, thats your password
[04:37] <KiloHertz> your password you use to login at the beginning. That password xexys
[04:37] <vm> so how do i get different gnome themes, besides in the default gnome theme manager
[04:38] <Xexyz> sudo: ./install.sh: command not found
[04:38] <shawn34> gnome-look.org
[04:38] <shawn34> vm, gnome-look.org
[04:38] <vm> ty
[04:38] <vox754> rtfm_4, it may work, but it is not guaranteed. It also depends on whether your BIOS can boot the USB instead of internal hard disk. Search the forums for success stories
[04:39] <Punkunity> everyones too busy then i guess?
[04:39] <EADG> Xexyz: you need to be in the directory where the install.sh file was decompressed to.
[04:39] <Xexyz> its on my desktop
[04:39] <teer> Anyone installed from a livecd on a computer using a RAID card?
[04:39] <jrib> Xexyz: that's not the correct way to install divx support
[04:40] <luisgmarine> anyone here got Cedega running on Ubuntu 64-bit?
[04:40] <rtfm_4> vox, yes the bios supports it, and i tried to specify that the last time I installed it but got a fatal error but I believe my syntax was wrong, do I specify the block or the partition, and using /dev/... before it or just (sdb)  ?
[04:40] <jrib> Xexyz: if you read the link I sent you, you'll see it's very easy to get support for divx and other media files
[04:41] <Xexyz> could you send it again
[04:41] <jrib> !restricted > Xexyz (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:42] <QRZ> Punkunity: Did you install libdvdcss?  It's required for playback of encrypted DVDs.
[04:42] <vox754> rtfm_4, well that is very specific, and since I'm not running the installer I can't tell. But I think it is how it appears in the installer.
[04:42] <luisgmarine> Anyone here using Ubuntu 64-bit?
[04:42] <austin_> does anyone have a driver or somethign that will allow ubuntu decoder that will allow windows videos
[04:42] <jrib> !anyone | luisgmarine
[04:43] <ubotu> luisgmarine: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:43] <jrib> !restricted > austin_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:43] <schrollini> When I insert a Compact Flash card, I get a messge "Disabling IRQ #3".  How do I make it mount anyway?
[04:43] <vox754> luisgmarine, no. You of course know that 64 bit distributions are mostly troublesome for normal desktop users
[04:43] <jaevel1> Flannel: still there, i have 1 more question if thats alright?
[04:43] <rtfm_4> vox754, thank you for assisting as you could. I will try again as i'm a persistent S.O.B.

[04:45] <austin_> I never recieved it
[04:45] <vox754> oxy-cotton, pardon?  I wasn't talking to you.
[04:45] <jrib> austin_: you should have a private message from ubotu
[04:46] <oxy-cotton> vox754: I know
[04:46] <rtfm_4> vox754, I make a good example out of myself.. hehe
[04:46] <jaevel1> can anyone tell me how to, from a user account install flashplayer-installer? i have tried "sudo flashplayer-installer" it asks for my password then says wrong password?
[04:46] <oxy-cotton> rtfm_4: What does you nick mean?
[04:46] <flowingfire> jrib: No, I never specifically said I would allow it to remove gnome... It just did it.  What I DID approve was a warning in the terminal that said,
[04:46] <flowingfire> Untrusted packages could compromise your system's security.
[04:46] <flowingfire> You should only proceed with the installation if you are certain that
[04:46] <flowingfire> this is what you want to do.
[04:47] <KiloHertz> jaeveli your going to have to reset your root password somehow.
[04:47] <oxy-cotton> Why is my network spinlocking?
[04:47] <Pelo> jaevel,   capslocks ?
[04:47] <jrib> flowingfire: pastebin the entire output
[04:47] <jaevel1> KiloHertz: ive never had a root password?
[04:47] <meclizine> is there an "more normal" way to get my version info then "cat /etc/issue"
[04:47] <flowingfire> jrib- Ok...
[04:47] <rtfm_4> oxy-cotton, rtfm = read the flippin' manual (replace flippin' with more vulgar term if you like)
[04:48] <jscinoz> Is the evdev input driver broken currently? it won't let X start if it is enabled
[04:48] <jrib> jaevel1: you want to install flash player?
[04:48] <jaevel1> jrib: yes
[04:48] <jrib> jscinoz: you need xserver-xorg-input-evdev

[04:48] <Pijiu> I'm trying to use my HDTV as a monitor, It's connected to my laptop Via a VGA but It doesn't detect the model and won't let me go above 640x480 resolution... I've tried editing the 915resolution but It still doesn't work. Please help
[04:48] <vox754> meclizine, "lsb_release -a"
[04:49] <jscinoz> it still wont allow X to start
[04:49] <jrib> jscinoz: it works fine here, check your xorg.conf
[04:49] <flowingfire> Ohhhh crap.... I think I just found the culprit...
[04:49] <jscinoz> what should i be looking at in it.
[04:49] <GreyKing> does anyone know of any cd to iso software?
[04:49] <oxy-cotton> Why is my network spinlocking?
[04:49] <jrib> jscinoz: the evdev setup.  /var/log/Xorg.0.log probably tells you why X failed to start, so it should give you some hitns
[04:50] <Pelo> oxy-cotton,  try asking the forum
[04:50] <Toma-> GreyKing: mkisofs
[04:50] <oxy-cotton> I would rather ask here
[04:50] <oxy-cotton> I don't want to have to reg

[04:53] <flowingfire> Okay... Obviously I should be more careful with what I do in an apt-get, as I can now see that I approved it to remove Gnome... But would somebody please look at it and tell me why it did it to begin with so I can prevent it from happening again... Contrary to what the computer thought, I actually do use gnome....

[04:56] <Jordan_U> flowingfire, Because ubuntu-desktop brings in gnome, apt was just telling you that since you removed ubuntu-desktop you might also want to remove it's dependencies, one of which is gnome
[04:56] <outRider> i get that sometimes, detects some displays as only being 640x480, but i have nvidia

[05:08] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit

[05:32] <oxy-cotton> xtknight: When your computers CPU goes to 100%
[05:33] <MaxRideAE> Also, It's happening on two seperate machines, but the other one runs Win2k just fine....
[05:34] <defcon> how do I find an application I installed
[05:34] <defcon> the binary files
[05:34] <gordboy> a spinlock is a mechanism in the kernel to prevent concurrent access to volatile address/io spaces
[05:34] <usser> defcon: which <appname>
[05:34] <xtknight> yeah and when he says his computer is spinlocking, that doesnt make much sense now does it
[05:34] <xtknight> lol
[05:34] <defcon> ktorrent
[05:34] <xtknight> as that's the only spnlock i know of also
[05:34] <defcon> or any app
[05:34] <defcon> so I dont have to keep asking
[05:34] <defcon> ;)
[05:35] <crdlb> defcon: why do you need to know?
[05:35] <crdlb> it's in your PATH
[05:35] <aidan> ah dear
[05:35] <crdlb> so you can just run it
[05:35] <aidan> this is going to be harder than I thought.
[05:35] <kevin__> usser nice i never knew the which command
[05:35] <defcon> no im looking for it so firefox opens it
[05:35] <defcon> ;)
[05:35] <usser> kevin__: theres also whereis
[05:35] <crdlb> just put "ktorrent"
[05:35] <Assassin`> hi
[05:35] <Assassin`> how is everyone :)
[05:36] <defcon> ok thnx but for my information, in linux where are binary files stored like ktorrent
[05:36] <defcon> or whats a command line command to search
[05:36] <gordboy> "my computer is going out of control. i think it must be the cfq scheduler. how do i change that ?"
[05:36] <usser> defcon: u dont generally need the exact location of binary files
[05:36] <xtknight> use no op scheduler
[05:36] <xtknight> ;)
[05:36] <Jester> defcon: /usr/bin for user bins and /bin for system bins usually
[05:36] <|chiz|> defcon: binary files are stored the in bin folders
[05:36] <Assassin`> i have a question :)
[05:36] <darwin> How do I know if I'm running a DHCP server?
[05:37] <defcon> ok
[05:37] <usser> defcon: but if u do most of the time they are in /bin /usr/bin /usr/local/bin
[05:37] <gordboy> defcon: which ktorrent
[05:37] <Jester> defcon: type "which ktorrent" to find out
[05:37] <alien8ed> can anyone help me with mp3 playback problems?

[05:38] <vm> hrm okay, so I installed wallpaper-tray, and have it set up, and to start it i type wallpaper-tray into terminal......then do i have to leave the terminal window up for it to run?
[05:38] <michaelpo> is there a shortcut to arrange open windows by cascade or tile? what is it? how?
[05:38] <michaelpo> in gnome
[05:38] <alien8ed> gordboy: i know mp3s will play on my computer because they work fine in rhythmbox.  but when i try to play them in amarok, it says mp3 not supported
[05:39] <defcon> i wish I could bind alt ctrl del to system monitor
[05:39] <defcon> any way?
[05:39] <MaxRideAE> I have a little question....When I try to boot from the CD for the first time, it stops booting at 'SquashFS'. It's not frozen but the boot process stops....CD Verificaiton is fine, and I just put in a good new RAM chip...Anybody have any suggestions?
[05:39] <xtknight> defcon, /usr/local/bin sometimes
[05:39] <xtknight> yes
[05:39] <xtknight> that was in a popular ubuntu tip thread
[05:39] <xtknight> cant remember
[05:39] <bluefox83> alien8ed, amarok needs some gstreamer stuff, i would google amarok mp3 support
[05:39] <defcon> which forum
[05:39] <defcon> i'll do a google site: search
[05:39] <defcon> ;)
[05:39] <mjbrooks> MaxRideAE, laptop?
[05:40] <MaxRideAE> Yes.
[05:40] <gordboy> alien8ed: in synaptic package manager, turn on the "dodgy" repos, and search for mp3
[05:40] <MaxRideAE> Two fo them, different brands.
[05:40] <alien8ed> i have tried installing some gstreamer things, but will look again
[05:40] <jp834618> how can i auto start applications after boot?
[05:40] <alien8ed> gordboy: will try that
[05:40] <Assassin`> can someone answer my question :)
[05:40] <gordboy> alien8ed: just use audacious
[05:40] <mjbrooks> MaxRideAE, try pressing F6 and typing noacpi at the beginning of the line that shows up
[05:40] <jscinoz> hey everyone
[05:41] <gordboy> Assassin`: how do you know ?
[05:41] <Assassin`> please
[05:41] <gordboy> lol
[05:41] <Assassin`> know what?
[05:41] <MaxRideAE> Ah, I was getting some ACPI errors so I had to do that, before it got hung on the 'Blinking cursor' of doom.
[05:41] <alien8ed> gordboy: does audacious integrate ipods
[05:41] <gordboy> Assassin`: how do you know that you need to update your driver ?
[05:41] <mjbrooks> MaxRideAE, hmmm
[05:41] <Assassin`> because i tried to run a program and it didn't work as well as it did
[05:42] <Assassin`> aa2k7
[05:42] <gordboy> alien8ed: not as far as i know. but some bugger has probably written a plugin by now ...
[05:42] <kevin__> Assassin`,  nvidia card?
[05:42] <Assassin`> no sir ati
[05:42] <Assassin`> motherboard
[05:42] <mjbrooks> MaxRideAE, there are a few other options besides that which cause laptops problems as well, can't think of them off the top of my head though :(
[05:42] <Assassin`> oops ati xpress 200
[05:42] <Assassin`> integrated
[05:42] <Assassin`> but i had it where it was flying in windows xp
[05:43] <alien8ed> gordboy:  ill tinker a bit with amarok because i know it does work as i had to reinstall ubuntu and it worked fine before
[05:43] <MaxRideAE> MJ: =(  Yea, I think I need to start looking at the HCL for Ubuntu and verify hardware at this point...  x.x;
[05:43] <jscinoz> i'm writing this from console IRC, evdev broke X again startup error is "PreInit returned NULL for Mouse0" any ideas what causes this?
[05:43] <Assassin`> then i kicked bill gates in the nuts and saw the light
[05:43] <crabgrass> so i'm using .tar.gz's on a seperate disk for backup, and i was wondering if there was any way to append them, rather than deleting and remaking or adding files in?
[05:43] <kevin__> Assassin`, i have a nvidia card And i used the driver and their instructins from their website
[05:43] <dam> where do i go for questions about crossover office and world of warcraft?
[05:43] <mjbrooks> MaxRideAE, try searching google for your laptop model + ubuntu
[05:43] <Assassin`> ok
[05:43] <crabgrass> better yet, anyone know of a proper backup app?
[05:43] <Assassin`> hmmm
[05:43] <mjbrooks> MaxRideAE, I'm sure you aren't the first ;)
[05:43] <Crazytom> is there a way to tell what all packages you have installed other than the default ones?  and then reinstall them when you do a reinstall?
[05:43] <kevin__> Assassin`,  im not much help for an ati card , you might check the ubuntu forums though
[05:43] <gordboy> alien8ed: righty ho
[05:44] <crabgrass> Assassin`: google for "milone envy"
[05:44] <Assassin`> might i add that this is my first day on here and thanks for helping the n00b
[05:44] <michaelpo> is there a way to arrange open windows in gnome by cascade or tile or vertical or horizontal?
[05:44] <Assassin`> ok
[05:44] <kevin__> Assassin`, or do a google search for <model of card> + ubuntu
[05:44] <jscinoz> i'm writing this from console IRC, evdev broke X again startup error is "PreInit returned NULL for Mouse0" any ideas what causes this?
[05:44] <crabgrass> Assassin`: it's an app called envy, and it's worked wonders for my nvidia card, and ive heard nothing but good about his ati support.
[05:45] <mjbrooks> michaelpo, right click on desktop?  works in Kubuntu
[05:45] <MaxRideAE> MJ: Allright, I'm going to step out while I google up this information...although, it just did something new....I'm at a blank white screen now...so....while I leave it to sit and think...
[05:45] <michaelpo> mjbrooks: nope... not in ubuntu...
[05:46] <michaelpo> any ubuntu users here know this secret?
[05:46] <mjbrooks> michaelpo, how about middle clicking?

[05:47] <DShepherd> Assassin`: i dont think so

[05:48] <cbs> crabgrass: it wouldnt work for me eoither...but instead of just importing Tahoma.ttf, I copied my entire windows XP fonts folder to WINE
[05:48] <cbs> and now EVERYTHING runs
[05:49] <zerokill88> Hellooo.Is there anything out there.um..something as a registry cleaner for windows.I want something to check through my file systems and just make sure everything is in place.
[05:49] <crabgrass> Assassin`: choose 'manually install driver'
[05:49] <cbs> before, I was getting crashes in CS every 5 mins
[05:49] <payal> I want DVD download and not CD
[05:49] <cbs> now I can play for hourse, no crashes
[05:49] <DShepherd> Assassin`: http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[05:49] <crabgrass> cbs: did the same here, but brought it from a win2kpro install
[05:49] <mjbrooks> payal, it comes as a CD not a DVD
[05:49] <cbs> all the mem errs in CS point ot font probsa
[05:49] <gordboy> payal: burn the image onto a dvd then
[05:49] <payal> mjbrooks: why?
[05:49] <hikenboot> greetings all just installed ubuntu 7.04 getting cant access tty job control turned off on first boot after install...any ideas..I see hundres of posts for this issue with no solutions

[05:51] <crabgrass> Assassin`: in due time
[05:51] <jscinoz> doesnt work for me crab
[05:51] <gordboy> payal: there are 3rd party (paying for) dvds. none for free download tho. as far as i know anyways
[05:51] <Assassin`> you guys must be patient :)
[05:51] <crabgrass> jscinoz: then i'm out of ideas, sorry.
[05:51] <jscinoz> :P dw
[05:51] <crabgrass> jscinoz: what term are you using?
[05:51] <jscinoz> console (ctrl alt f1) i cant get x going
[05:51] <mjbrooks> payal, http://mirror.utdlug.org/linux/distributions/ubuntu/release/dvd/current/
[05:51] <jscinoz> im using ssh to a remote server and using their IRC to talk
[05:52] <crabgrass> jscinoz: damn, that's intense.
[05:52] <XLV_feisty> gordboy, there's dvd for 7.04 for download
[05:52] <jscinoz> ;P
[05:52] <crabgrass> jscinoz: what's the x error?
[05:52] <payal> gordboy: oh! is there a chance that free DVD will be released officially
[05:52] <jscinoz> one sec
[05:52] <Kinkx> No sound for me I guess since I have a Creative X-Fi sound-card? :(
[05:52] <jscinoz> "PreInit Returned NULL for Mouse0"
[05:52] <jscinoz> i'm trying to get Evdev to work
[05:53] <Assassin`> wow that seems simple enought
[05:53] <Assassin`> enough*
[05:53] <crabgrass> jscinoz: hum. again, can't help ya.
[05:53] <gordboy> XLV_feisty: perhaps you'd be kind enough to paste a url for payal then
[05:53] <crabgrass> jscinoz: sorry, mate
[05:53] <cbs> OH< another VERY important step to getting this to work, is installing mozilla, then the mozilla activex control into wine
[05:53] <jscinoz> np
[05:53] <Assassin`> so this automatically finds whats right for you computer
[05:53] <payal> can I install winzip using wine on ubuntu
[05:53] <hikenboot> crabgrass, all usb devices disconnected same problem
[05:53] <crabgrass> payal: you don't need to
[05:53] <gluttony> where is this option >>> Analog/Digital output
[05:53] <XLV_feisty> gordboy, trying to find the url
[05:53] <bruenig> payal, why would you want to
[05:53] <mjbrooks> I wish I could get kwallet to stop prompting me for knetworkmanager    sigh
[05:53] <cbs> crabgrass: check pm's when you have a min
[05:53] <crabgrass> hikenboot: bummer. well, that's what worked for me
[05:53] <dam> anyone playing WOW in ubuntu?
[05:53] <cbs> im going to play some CS :)
[05:53] <jscinoz> Can anyone help me get EvDev working, currently it prevents X from starting with "Preinit returned NULL for Mouse0"
[05:53] <usser> cbs: i think wine has that already
[05:53] <Toma-> Kinkx: last i saw there was no support for the X-FI line :S do you have an integrated sound chip?
[05:54] <Gekko-State> Anyone know if NwN2 is stable under wine in ubuntu?
[05:54] <Assassin`> ok what about games
[05:54] <mjbrooks> payal, you don't need winzip
[05:54] <usser> cbs starting 0.9.33 u dont have to install mozilla activex
[05:54] <jscinoz> dam, go to winehq.org then appdb then find wow (its near the top of the gold list) theres a link in there to a ubuntu guide
[05:54] <Assassin`> you can only play games that are opengl based right?
[05:54] <crabgrass> usser: is there a nightly for that? 'cause that's something i want.
[05:54] <payal> crabgrass: that was an example - I want to try wine
[05:54] <cbs> usser: ok, i know...it says that....but it wouldnt work for me on latest wine even...
[05:54] <crabgrass> Assassin`: or ones that translate easily into opengl, like WoW
[05:54] <cbs> trust me, I have reinstalled ubuntu 8 times this lpast week alone
[05:55] <bruenig> payal, in general, to use wine you just do "wine whatever.exe"
[05:55] <usser> cbs: thats weird
[05:55] <jscinoz> Assassin, not entirely true, some DX games work but most dont work or have such bad performance their unplayable
[05:55] <Kinkx> Toma-, I do.. guess I should go enable it in BIOS, but kinda feels like a waste to have a X-Fi right now :)
[05:55] <payal> crabgrass: but while installation it is asking for path of istall - c:\program file etc
[05:55] <cbs> usser: tell me about it...but I REALLLY wanted to play CSS :P
[05:55] <usser> crabgrass: come again nightly for what?
[05:55] <bruenig> payal, but make sure that whatever app you are installing isn't available on linux, that is why winzip seemed so odd
[05:55] <payal> how can that path be valid in Linux
[05:55] <crabgrass> usser: nightly build for wine
[05:55] <imperfectus> I'd really like to use wine w/ World of Warcraft
[05:55] <defcon> yo this is a little off topic but, when I run frostwire, for some reason the screen is blank
[05:55] <|chiz|> Assassin, you can get wolfenstien enemy territory for linux
[05:55] <defcon> is that a java issue
[05:55] <cbs> copying winxp fonts folder and inst mozilla activex has be playing lagless
[05:55] <defcon> or wut
[05:55] <crabgrass> payal: yeah, wine will point to a fake c:/ drive
[05:55] <bruenig> payal, it uses the fake drive c
[05:55] <jscinoz> imperfectus, go to the appdb entry for WoW on winehq.org it has all the information you need
[05:55] <usser> crabgrass: i wouldnt know never used csv, development builds in my life =)
[05:55] <XLV> payal, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.04/release/
[05:55] <Toma-> Kinkx: they were ment to be the beginnings of the DRM hardware, iirc
[05:55] <crabgrass> payal: if you're interested, it's /home/username/.wine/drive_c
[05:56] <crabgrass> usser: =P
[05:56] <gordboy> wine. joysticks. gamers. god help us
[05:56] <payal> bruenig: but once I install where do I run winzip from - where is it installed
[05:56] <usser> hahaha
[05:56] <imperfectus> jscinoz: well, I wasn't happy with cedega... I'm just wondering if I'll get any better results using regular wine
[05:56] <payal> crabgrass: oh
[05:56] <crabgrass> gordboy: sadly, linux isn't for gamers, yet.
[05:56] <usser> imperfectus: nope
[05:56] <bruenig> payal, what is the deal with winzip
[05:56] <payal> XLV: cecking it
[05:56] <mjbrooks> why won't kwalletmanager let me add knetworkmanager as a no password needed application? grrrr
[05:56] <crabgrass> payal: wait, have you run winecfg yet?
[05:56] <usser> imperfectus: if anything u'll get worse
[05:56] <gordboy> crabgrass: hopefully, it never will be
[05:56] <payal> crabgrass: no
[05:56] <matman> hello fellow ubuntians!  I just bought a macbook, and i was wondering if anyone has any advice for me on installing ubuntu and getting everything to work.
[05:56] <hitmanWilly> imperfectus: usually cedega is better for games
[05:56] <crabgrass> payal: kill the installer and do that first.
[05:57] <bruenig> payal, you would need to find the executable, it will probably be in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/
[05:57] <crabgrass> gordboy: aww, why do you say that?
[05:57] <jp834618> i love ubuntu
[05:57] <crabgrass> gordboy: i really don't want to have to waste hdd space on a windows install just to play two or three games
[05:57] <Kinkx> I really have the wrong kind of hardware for Linux I think, ATI XT1900 and X-Fi.. guess I'll go back to XP :[
[05:57] <mjbrooks> payal, you DON'T NEED winzip
[05:57] <bruenig> payal, seriously, I am curious, why are you installing winzip?
[05:57] <gordboy> crabgrass: you play games on a game console. you fix xorg.conf in a linux console :)
[05:57] <brylie> matman, have you downloaded Ubuntu for your architecture?
[05:57] <hikenboot> anyone else have a clue why ubuntu 7.04 doesnt like to boot?
[05:57] <defcon> how do I update my java
[05:58] <defcon> lol
[05:58] <EADG> www.happypenguin.org for a start on Linux games.
[05:58] <crabgrass> gordboy: <-- born and raised on pc games, console games are (for the most part) horrible to me.
[05:58] <Mena> Does Ubuntu/Kubuntu Recognize Vista and add it to the grub ?
[05:58] <crabgrass> gordboy: nice pun, though =D
[05:58] <michaelpo> how do you guys autoarrange your open application windows?
[05:58] <matman> brylie, well, it should be the same ach. right? it's a macbook, so it's running the new intel core 2 duo
[05:58] <jscinoz> >_< i fixed evdev... and it was the most retarded fix i could think of...
[05:59] <py_geek> hey all
[05:59] <josh__> hi
[05:59] <bruenig> here comes offtopic
[05:59] <py_geek> ALL:: who in here uses wine?
[05:59] <crabgrass> py_geek: howdy
[05:59] <josh__> do you know about a good program to download music
[05:59] <Toma-> Kinkx: ATI will be releasing open source drivers soon, so theyll quickly become awesome. as for X-Fi, well, you can thank all those turkeys at SoundBlaster for not releasing spec sheets for it to the alsa dudes
[05:59] <bruenig> !anyone | py_geek
[05:59] <talisein> Where is sun-java6-jdk installed to in feisty? I'm trying to set my java_home correctly
[05:59] <ubotu> py_geek: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
