[08:43] <curtis_> hello everyone!
[08:43] <WX9J>  after totem went seeking codecs, I get "could not load repository indexes" any one seem this ? trying to get Rythim box snd such to play mp3's
[08:43] <hexstar> !quit
[08:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about quit - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:43] <Phlogis> WX9J: Thank you :)
[08:44] <Chris____> Hi, I'm having trouble connecting to a WPA encrypted network via command line (still)
[08:44] <WX9J> no worries, would be glad to help ya with that
[08:44] <lockd> Chris____: ouch, what net card?
[08:44] <Chris____> biggest problem is I don't know how to add the syntax to /etc/network/interfaces
[08:44] <curtis_> i just turned on my pc and started browsing the net where i found my connection is extremly low! i looked into firestarter active connections to see whts going on i found 2 sites downloading and using up most of my bandwidth.. these 2 sites are "auckland.ubuntu.com & leningradskaya.canonical.com "
[08:44] <bliss> any lvm people here?
[08:44] <_pirinto_> I got two harddrives on this system. One SAS drive and one SATA drive. The system resides oin the SAS drive. Is it possible to do snapshots (with say rsync) to the SATA drive and edit grub so that booting from the SATA drive is possible in case of the SAS drive failing?
[08:44] <curtis_> could anyone lemme know wht these are! am i cracked!
[08:45] <WX9J> Phlogis: some win modems wont work with Linux
[08:45] <Phlogis> Mhmm.  Like mIRC won't?
[08:46] <fraser> hi guys, for some reason my desktop isn't loading properly today, just got home and booted ti up and there's no wallpaper and no icons appearing, cannot right click the desktop. tried deleting all the news files on there from within a terminal, (in case they were causing an issue), but to no avail. have restarted GDM three times.
[08:46] <sareth> has anyone had experience with a dual core opteron only reporting one core?
[08:46] <WX9J> it depends on how much of the modem is software and not hardware
[08:46] <Darkkish> what does mIRC have to do with win modems?
[08:46] <WX9J> was a big problem in older Linux systems
[08:46] <Music_Shuffle> sareth, I saw a Windows fix for that a while back, never saw a *Nix fix.
[08:46] <eth1c> can anyone here offer me support with the link Seveas gave me for !w32codecs? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[08:46] <eth1c> ive been clicking the diff mirrors, i see nothing to download o_O?
[08:46] <Chris____> the problem with connecting to the network isn't a technical issue, the card is recognized fine. I just need to know how to add a WPA configuration to /etc/network/interfaces
[08:47] <_pirinto_> fraser: Have you checked your /home dir for any changes regarding your profile in gnome?
[08:47] <fraser> sareth, googled it?
[08:47] <Phlogis> Uhm, Darkkish, I have no idea, I'm not that intelligent here?  Bare with my limited questions :/
[08:47] <fraser> _pirinto_, just ran a system update. i don't really know what to look for in there.
[08:47] <bruenig> eth1c, you are meant to add the repository to the /etc/apt/sources.list and download it via apt-get
[08:47] <sareth> Music_Shuffle, im looking at changing the kernel to amd64-smp to try and fix it
[08:47] <sareth> yeah i googled it
[08:47] <Darkkish> haha it's okay Phlogis i was just curious if you knew something that I did not
[08:47] <fraser> _pirinto_, also, the title bar with the menus on it is working fine, but when i try to open say 'home' or 'computer' it just does nothing
[08:48] <_pirinto_> fraser: Alright I know this happened to me once and I fixed it, I remember I saw the solution at the ubuntu forums back then
[08:48] <Phlogis> I just heard certain programes won't work on Linux, one being mIRC, and apparently other Windows "things"?
[08:48] <fraser> _pirinto_, thanks man
[08:48] <bruenig> Phlogis, windows programs don't work on linux...duh
[08:48] <sareth> fraser, i looked, noone has had the problem. i just installed it. I has using dual opteron 144s before
[08:48] <eth1c> bruenig im going to do my best to comprehend that... brb while i fiddle
[08:48] <fraser> bruenig, hey no need to be mean to the poor boy
[08:48] <Phlogis> Well, yea, I meant, uhm, certain files that windows makes
[08:48] <fraser> Phlogis, nah no windows programs will work unless there's a linux version
[08:49] <bruenig> Phlogis, there are some windows programs that are ported to linux, and there is software called wine that will setup a semi stable compatibility layer that will run some windows programs
[08:49] <WX9J>  after totem went seeking codecs, I get "could not load repository indexes" any one seem this ? trying to get Rythim box snd such to play mp3's
[08:49] <xevious> i'm trying to install Adaptec Storage Manager in kubuntu
[08:49] <sareth> WXPJ, sounds like it moved your codecs or is reporting them to be in a different location
[08:49] <Phlogis> I just want to be sure files that say "Word" made will be usable on Ubuntu's Word Processor...
[08:49] <lockd> fraser: some will with wine which is Not an Emulator by definition
[08:49] <bruenig> !repeat | WX9J
[08:49] <ubotu> WX9J: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[08:50] <lockd> Phlogis: word docs can usually be read in KWord/Openoffice
[08:50] <Phlogis> Oh ok good.
[08:50] <bruenig> Phlogis, .doc files are fairly compatible
[08:50] <fraser> lockd, okay technically some can be '(not) emulated', but for all intents and purposes, you can basically forget using windows programs, but WINE is useless, it works for about three games and two little programs and that's it
[08:50] <WX9J> if your watching that closely you night note it was after a number of others checked in
[08:50] <Kitsun> Its generally quicker to call WINE an emulator tho, more understandable than compatibility-layer or whatever its called
[08:51] <fraser> Kitsun, i call it (not) emulation
[08:51] <bruenig> fraser, wine works for a lot of stuff
[08:51] <lockd> at least 10 (and really more) Platinum level apps run under wine
[08:51] <sareth> fraser, wine's not useless just hard to setup correctly
[08:51] <Phlogis> And uhm, what program would you use on Linux, to replace mIRC?
[08:51] <bruenig> fraser, but running it is not preferable to running linux apps
[08:51] <Phlogis> How stable is wine?
[08:51] <Music_Shuffle> Phlogis, mIRC?
[08:51] <fraser> bruenig, it's not an acceptable alternative to a windows partition if you need ti for work or anything. it's fun to play with though
[08:51] <Music_Shuffle> !irc | Phlogis
[08:51] <ubotu> Phlogis: A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines
[08:51] <ziroday> fraser: i think wine works great, its running tunes MS Word, CS:S and more on my comp
[08:51] <Chris____> So nobody knows how to set up a wpa encrypted network interface through command line?
[08:52] <fraser> sareth, okay, granted i most probably have no idea how to set it up correctly
[08:52] <fraser> ziroday, was it hard to get it working?
[08:52] <ziroday> Phlogis: you would run gaim or xchat
[08:52] <lockd> Chris____: let me check, I don't think it's where you pointed to in /etc
[08:52] <ziroday> fraser: which program?
[08:52] <fraser> ziroday, do you have to have specs much higher than the recommende dto run CS:Source?
[08:52] <sareth> Chris____, only know how on wireless. actually i think its just wireless
[08:52] <Kitsun> gaim? isnt pidgin a better version?
[08:52] <Phlogis> I see.
[08:52] <fraser> ziroday, i meant CS: Source
[08:52] <sareth> pidgin is gaim
[08:52] <lockd> Chris____: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo#head-0ea8cdec8956fd98e68d5c887976b6bc331d95cb
[08:52] <_pirinto_> I got two harddrives on this system. One SAS drive and one SATA drive. The system resides oin the SAS drive. Is it possible to do snapshots (with say rsync) to the SATA drive and edit grub so that booting from the SATA drive is possible in case of the SAS drive failing?
[08:52] <bruenig> fraser, ok you are working under a different paradigm, this "work" paradigm is different from me, to demean it as something to play with is just absurd, it has run just about anything I have thrown at it, utorrent, pokerstars, even some super obscure dos program
[08:53] <lockd> Chris____: i will shorturl that sorry
[08:53] <ziroday> fraser: um well CS:S i found the fps rates slower on linux than in windows
[08:53] <ziroday> but playable
[08:53] <ziroday> fraser: if you wanna clone check out digital paintball
[08:53] <fraser> ziroday, okay that sounds reasonable
[08:53] <NETWizz> Is there any way I can set Windows to always be the very first item in Grub?
[08:53] <Kitsun> CS:S played terribly for me, it ran, but was near unplayable
[08:53] <xevious> i'm trying to install Adaptec Storage Manager in kubuntu. Adaptec Storage Manager is prebuild for Redhat EL and SuSE Professional/Enterprise.  I converted the rpm to a tgz, and i've gotten the GUI to run, but the daemon has some precompiled libraries that depend on libstdc++-6.1-1.so.2, whereas my system has libstdc++.so.6.0.8. it loads up, but thinks my system doesn't have the raid controller. is it possible to relink it to the libstdc++
[08:53] <xevious> the version that it's expecting and install that too?
[08:53] <ziroday> NETWizz: yes
[08:53] <Chris____> thanks lockd
[08:53] <bruenig> NETWizz, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and put it on top of the rest
[08:53] <NETWizz> Right now I just have the default set to 7
[08:53] <NETWizz> or something like that
[08:53] <fraser> NETWizz, yes. there's a grub.conf somewhere, type 'locat grub.conf' then simple copy and paste the windows entry to the top
[08:54] <bruenig> there is no grub.conf
[08:54] <NETWizz> The problem is tha tI installed Ubuntu for my father on a second hard drive
[08:54] <bruenig> there is a /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:54] <NETWizz> He has a Dual boot
[08:54] <fraser> NETWizz, or do what bruenig says cos he actually knows what he's doing
[08:54] <NETWizz> I know there is a boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:54] <fraser> goodbye everyone, i've poisoned you enough
[08:54] <ziroday> NETWizz: i have the same setup
[08:54] <bruenig> NETWizz, right, just move the windows entry above the other entries
[08:54] <NETWizz> The problem is that each time he does an Ubuntu Update and the kernel gets updated, there are 2 more entries to the grub menu
[08:55] <lockd> Chris____: http://xrl.us/3q3a
[08:55] <NETWizz> and that means the default has to be incremented twice
[08:55] <ziroday> NETWizz: you can change that in grub.conf
[08:55] <Phlogis> I shall now go install, thank you everyone for being patient :)
[08:55] <sareth> NETWizz, you have to give windows the default tag if i remember correctly
[08:55] <lockd> Chris____: go down to wpasupplicant
[08:55] <bruenig> NETWizz, right, just move the windows entry above the other entries
[08:55] <bruenig> NETWizz, right, just move the windows entry above the other entries
[08:55] <Akjoe> apt-get install girlfriend
[08:55] <Kitsun> you have to add savedefault or somthing to the menu.lst entry
[08:55] <bruenig> my god, never seen someone ask for advice and just yack away like an idiot
[08:55] <NETWizz> burning, if I move Windows above all entries and set default 0
[08:55] <fraser> _pirinto_, any idea what i should be searching the forums for? not having much luck
[08:56] <ziroday> bruenig: please dont
[08:56] <NETWizz> Then Windows will be default
[08:56] <NETWizz> What will happen when he updates Ubuntu?
[08:56] <_pirinto_> fraser: hang I'll check myself
[08:56] <NETWizz> and it installs another kernel
[08:56] <bruenig> it will still be default
[08:56] <NETWizz> Will it go under Windows?
[08:56] <NETWizz> Cool
[08:56] <NETWizz> I will do that
[08:56] <NETWizz> I set it on a 3 second timer for my dad
[08:56] <NETWizz> I have it setup to in 3 seconds automatically boot Windows
[08:57] <NETWizz> if he presses ESC and then selects Ubuntu, it loads that
[08:57] <ziroday> NETWizz: correct. please dont use enter as punctuation
[08:57] <NETWizz> I am trying to convert my dad
[08:57] <ziroday> !enter | NETWizz
[08:57] <ubotu> NETWizz: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:57] <Kitsun> if you add "savedefault" to an entry in menu.lst it will make it the default option when it is selected in GRUB
[08:57] <NETWizz> I am sorry, ziroday.  I am trying to get my dad to switch to Linux, so I installed it for him on a second physical drive with grub installed on the first drive with Windows.
[08:58] <_pirinto_> fraser: what happens if you create a different user and log in
[08:58] <Kitsun> so if you add it to all the entries it should just boot what was last used, or if added to just windows, it would just boot windows
[08:58] <_pirinto_> fraser: do you get the std layout?
[08:58] <NETWizz> I also installed Google Earth, Skype, MEDUbuntu repositories, Codecs Win Codecs, Fonts, Wine
[08:58] <fraser> _pirinto_, that seems a fairly extreme step, just try while i test that.
[08:58] <fraser> _pirinto_, on the forums people seem to be saying to just reformat but that's impractical for me.
[08:59] <NETWizz> I installed his wireless card and everything including the Nvidia driver, printer, and avant window navigator.  I am trying to make it idiot proof for Dad
[08:59] <Vignale> hi guys
[08:59] <_pirinto_> fraser: nah you shouldn't have to do thatt
[08:59] <_pirinto_> fraser: Just check if there's something weird when you log in as a new user
[08:59] <Vignale> i have a Samsung YP-K# mp3 player.....i can't seem to mount it....anyone offering help?
[09:00] <Vignale> i have a Samsung YP-K3 mp3 player.....i can't seem to mount it....anyone offering help?
[09:00] <fraser> _pirinto_, is there a way i can switch user without logging this one off?
[09:00] <eth1c> can i get assistance with this "gpg" think.. "eth1c@eth1c:~$ gpg --keyserver http://seveas.imbrandon.com/Seveas.gpg 1135D466
[09:00] <eth1c> gpg: can't open `1135D466'"
[09:00] <eth1c> i obviously am not using the command right.
[09:01] <NETWizz> Has anyone here installed and configured Ubuntu completely for someone else?
[09:01] <Kitsun> NETWizz, I have
[09:01] <_pirinto_> fraser: in gnome? I don't think so unless you got freeNX installed and can start a new session from there
[09:01] <NETWizz> You are awsome
[09:01] <darwin81> What do you guys think is the best way to install the Nvidia drivers
[09:01] <NETWizz> Did they convert?
[09:01] <lockd> NETWizz: not exactly, the one I set up just went to goodwill
[09:01] <Kitsun> yes, but reluctently
[09:01] <Vignale> i have a Samsung YP-K3 mp3 player.....i can't seem to mount it....anyone offering help?
[09:01] <fraser> _pirinto_, okay trying the new login
[09:02] <Seveas> eth1c, wget http://seveas.imbrandon.com/Seveas.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[09:02] <mikebarta> SMC driver question?
[09:02] <NETWizz> @darwin81, use the restricted drivers manager
[09:02] <_pirinto_> fraser: You could use screen on the terminal and attach this session to it
[09:02] <_pirinto_> too late :|
[09:02] <Vignale> i have a Samsung YP-K3 mp3 player.....i can't seem to mount it....anyone offering help?
[09:03] <darwin81> NETWizz, That sometimes gives me problems with my resolution, so I'm thinking about using Envy. What do you think?
[09:03] <Darkkish> does anyone know what happened to the "command-line" applet?
[09:03] <NETWizz> I don't know what  Envy is
[09:04] <Kitsun> It installs graphic drivers
[09:04] <NETWizz> I just edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and ensure all my monitors supported settings are in there
[09:04] <mikebarta> and that the refresh rates are high enough or it will cut higher res
[09:05] <fraser> _pirinto_, i'm now in the new account
[09:05] <fraser> _pirinto_, works fine and dandy
[09:05] <pr4b1> hi, ive accidently deleted messages from hotmail using evolution, is there any way i can save those message back onto the server? (without fwd them all one by one :(
[09:05] <_pirinto_> how did it go?
[09:05] <_pirinto_> fraser: alright,
[09:05] <warnet04_> hfkfkf
[09:05] <_pirinto_> fraser: what are you missing from your old profile?
[09:06] <_pirinto_> fraser:  the fonts huh?
[09:06] <mikebarta> does anyone know if xubuntu doesn't install the wireless.opts or if this is not in the defualt ubuntu setup?
[09:06] <hole_> hello are there any guitar amp programsfor linux?
[09:06] <mikebarta> noob trying to resurect a free p2/300 armada
[09:06] <fraser> _pirinto_, sorry? as in, why can't i just start using this profile? well no specific reason but i really don't want this shit to keep happening
[09:06] <hole_> i've looked all over google
[09:07] <fraser> _pirinto_, i kinda wanted to know why it happened.
[09:07] <gonzoism> how do i upgrade my kernel ?
[09:07] <_pirinto_> So do I
[09:07] <pr4b1> guess no one knows
[09:07] <fraser> _pirinto_, brb
[09:08] <gonzoism> i want to upgrade my kernel without compiling it myself, is there a repository for that ?
[09:09] <gonzoism> or a checkbox to check ?
[09:09] <fraser> _pirinto_, back in old profile now
[09:09] <_pirinto_> fraser:  you checked the logs?
[09:09] <fraser> _pirinto_, nope, where is said log stored?
[09:10] <gonzoism> i hate this.  my computer keeps freezing.  it gets really old.  it is frozen now....   here in about 40 seconds it will unfreeze and will dump all that i am typing out to the screen....
[09:10] <_pirinto_> fraser: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32339/
[09:10] <Darkkish> how do i reinstall something in apt?
[09:11] <gonzoism> i can't wait for gutsy.  maybe my computer won't freeze then.
[09:11] <gonzoism> Darkkish sudo apt-get install "whatever"
[09:11] <Darkkish> uninstall and reinstall in two steps?
[09:11] <Darkkish> oh.. kay
[09:11] <_pirinto_> fraser: Before you start doing some stuff you should take some backups
[09:11] <gonzoism> Darkkish sudo apt-get remove "whatever"
[09:11] <Darkkish> er crap
[09:11] <gonzoism> lol, you didn't remove apt did you ?
[09:12] <Darkkish> i want to recompile gnome applets with --enable-mini-commander
[09:12] <Darkkish> how would i do that?
[09:12] <gonzoism> install the build tools
[09:12] <Darkkish> k
[09:12] <Darkkish> and then what?
[09:12] <gonzoism> Darkkish then get the source for the applets. then install
[09:12] <gonzoism> ever built from source before ?
[09:13] <gonzoism> Darkkish  know how i can upgrade my kernel ?
[09:13] <gonzoism> Darkkish i think the one i have now is causing my box to freeze.
[09:13] <Darkkish> gonzoism, i am not really sure
[09:13] <Darkkish> i've never built from source before sorry
[09:13] <albert> is dualview possible in ubuntu?

[09:19] <JesusOnStilts> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Upgrade_Ubuntu_Edgy_to_Ubuntu_Feisty
[09:19] <|nLv|Nomad-K> i'm not too familiar with the terminal yet... would that work ?

[09:20] <mikebarta> by default it doesn't seem to have wireless support
[09:21] <czer323_> mikebarta, #xubuntu usually has a few of the developers for it.  I highly recommend them.  Pretty talented guys.
[09:21] <sport> im looking for a front end for Apache config?
[09:21] <JesusOnStilts> ok harmental, open Terminal type "gconf-editor".  then goto apps>nautilus>desktop

[09:23] <harmental> JesusOnStilts: i was hoping for a solution that also worked on kde...
[09:24] <fraser> what the option for command ls that allows you to see hidden files?
[09:24] <bliss> DBO: are you awake?
[09:24] <_pirinto_> fraser: ls -al

[09:33] <gin> rgl, maybe its your configure screen
[09:33] <gin> resolution or something

[10:22] <desertc> tuxcrafter: don't get me started on glibc ... there is glibc, glibc 2.0, glibc2, glibc2 2.0 ...
[10:22] <d4rkmonkey> o_O I hid though!
[10:22] <n00dl3> lmao
[10:22] <Seveas> foug, if you know a filename in the package, do dpkg -S that_filename
[10:23] <foug> Seveas: not sure tbh, it's just the games it comes with. i tried the names of them but it didn't work
[10:23] <[-O-] Apollo> O_O
[10:23] <Seveas> foug, games are in /usr/games
[10:23] <desertc> tuxcrafter: sorry I can't be more help
[10:23] <Seveas> gnome-games is a good start to remove
[10:23] <funcoot> can i format this drive from bios?

[10:23] <foug> Seveas: thanks
[10:23] <[-O-] Apollo> I found a plugin for GIMP that can make it to where PhotoShop plugins can be used with GIMP
[10:24] <[-O-] Apollo> Anyone interested?
[10:24] <d4rkmonkey> [-O-] Apollo, not really?
[10:24] <funcoot> can i format drives from bios?
[10:24] <desertc> foug: use the synaptic package manager
[10:24] <Flannel> funcoot: no.  You'll need to do it from within windows, since I don't think anything can create ntfs partitions currently
[10:24] <foug> Seveas: do you know how to find out package names though?
[10:24] <funcoot> flannel, but my windows wont boot with my linux drive hooked up :<
[10:24] <Seveas> foug, you can't find them out from thin air :)
[10:24] <desertc> funcoot: there are plenty of web pages explaining volume management in Linux
[10:25] <Flannel> funcoot: why not?  And, if it won't boot, why are you trying to give it more space?
[10:25] <Seveas> foug, you could go to applications -> add/remove, go to the games section and uninstall everything that's installed
[10:25] <JesusOnStilts> [-O-] Apollo: yes
[10:25] <Yahovah> foug: apt-cache search program name
[10:25] <[-O-] Apollo> Jesus what
[10:25] <foug> Seveas: that's where i'm at now, i don't see any uninstall button
[10:25] <JesusOnStilts> [-O-] Apollo: yes i am interested?
[10:26] <[-O-] Apollo> o
[10:26] <funcoot> flannel, i just hooked up this hard drive, and my windows boots fine, but when linux is hooked up as slave, windows will not boot
[10:26] <[-O-] Apollo> LOL I just closed the window.. Ill get it for you
[10:26] <foug> Yahovah: ahh good idea, it comes up as gnome-games
[10:26] <Seveas> foug, the ones where the checkbox is checked, are installed. Uncheck them and hit apply
[10:26] <funcoot> can i hook it up after my computer is on, id think thatd be a bit dangerous
[10:26] <Flannel> funcoot: Did you install linux with the windows HDD attached?  Does your windows grub entry just not boot properly? or what?
[10:26] <foug> Seveas: o i see, just uncheck it. So easy ;x
[10:27] <funcoot> this comp used to have 1 hd, i formatted from factory installed windows to ubuntu, i then added another drive and isntalled windows on that, i know want to use this linux drive as extra space

[10:28] <Yahovah> wizard: Have him reboot.
[10:28] <desertc> NETWizz: just a video codec

[10:30] <nox-Hand> Anyone know what sort of RAM I need for my laptop? It's: RAM: 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM @667 MHz (2 x 1GB) in my Dell M65 that currently has 1024MB ram
[10:30] <fleshy> ive just installed 7.04 and in live mode found my video card fine, installed and reboot and now i get a error about X and X config file.... don't knwo what im suppposed to be fixing
[10:30] <Kool-Aid> transcript, you need to change your password to something harder to guess
[10:30] <mkquist> wizard: have him try to shut down and unplug let it sit and see if booting straight to linux allows it to work... a pain i know but ive had that prob in the past and just installed a new card to overcome it
[10:30] <wizard> mkquist: tried that too
[10:30] <desertc> fleshy: video card configuration error in X11 configuration - pretty common
[10:31] <mkquist> wizard: has to sit for a while, if no then install another card, using a linksys in dual boot fine on main machine
[10:31] <desertc> fleshy: what kind of card?
[10:31] <fleshy> desertc, what command do i run or what do i edit in the /etc/X11/xconfig ?
[10:31] <wizard> mkquist: i dont see how letting the computer sit off forever would make a difference.
[10:32] <fleshy> desertc, nvidia 7600gt
[10:32] <desertc> fleshy: are you on another computer?
[10:32] <fleshy> now yes
[10:32] <mkquist> wizard: some cards dont like going back and forth, but for the price of a card....
[10:32] <desertc> fleshy: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_setup_nvidia_drivers_in_7.04
[10:33] <mkquist> wizard: dont know the tech behind it but its a prob ive heard of and run into dual booting w/some cards
[10:33] <desertc> fleshy: actually that won't help much
[10:34] <fleshy> desertc, when i run nvidia-settings i get a error about GTK not present
[10:34] <wizard> mkquist: okay. heres the next issue, in the meantime he'll have to use windows. so we've got windows set up to read linux drives, but it wants to format everytime. any ideas?
[10:34] <desertc> fleshy: did it ever boot to X11 ?
[10:34] <mkquist> wizard: letting it sit for a while like start again tomorrow would allow linux to use the card, just a prob ive heard of might be it, might not
[10:35] <fleshy> desertc, when i whacked in the disc in live mode, works fine
[10:35] <NETWizz> Does ubuntu-restricted-extras install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
[10:35] <mkquist> wizard: can it read it or not, if its trying to format then the drivers prob arent working in windows to read ext partitions
[10:35] <desertc> After the install - did you get a graphical login?
[10:35] <bliss> hi
[10:36] <desertc> NETWizz: your dvds are filled with copy protection DRM
[10:36] <wizard> mkquist: he installed the tool to be able to do it...
[10:36] <fleshy> desertc, no
[10:36] <mkquist> wizard: but does it work? like he can read it after saying no to formatting?
[10:36] <bliss> this is skype related question on ubuntu are all telephone calls free or only local
[10:36] <wizard> mkquist: no
[10:37] <mkquist> bliss - generally only to other skype users i believe
[10:38] <Flannel> bliss: Skype on Ubuntu is the same as Skype anywhere else
[10:38] <willvarfar> I was running ubuntu with a normal hi-res screen and compviz etc.  After the last reboot it now only works in 640x480 and no effects; a known issue with the last pushed upgrades?
[10:38] <desertc> bliss: Ubuntu uses a SIP client (SIP is an open protocol, unlike Skype.  You can use it to talk with Google Talk users)
[10:38] <mkquist> wizard - so he installed it but its not working. ive got the same on mine but i dont really care enough to fix it at the mo
[10:39] <bliss> Flannel: THANKS
[10:39] <foug> i can't get flashplayer to install on opera. It only install into /user/,mozilla, i need to install it for opera. I downloaded the file from opera's site too, funny it isn't working
[10:39] <fleshy> bliss, gtalk2voip
[10:40] <Morsiki> vsem privet
[10:40] <mkquist> wizard - really - easy answer for me was just a new card.... for $20 it wasnt worth fighting with the nic
[10:40] <Morsiki> hi all
[10:40] <Morsiki> pizda vam
[10:40] <desertc> fleshy: sorry, I am not finding an answer for you.  you're going to have to search around on the web - this is a common issue, but I can't find it.  maybe someone here knows, let me ask again...
[10:40] <foug> i can't get flashplayer to install on opera. It only install into /user/,mozilla, i need to install it for opera. I downloaded the file from opera's site too, funny it isn't working
[10:40] <pr4b1> hi offtopic this is but any kind soul here who can provide me a demonoid.com invite? im a student of world cinema but cant afford to buy movies
[10:40] <rgl> Yahovah, found the solution at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MappingWindowsKey :)
[10:40] <funcoot> how dangerous is it to format an unmounted drive? -.-
[10:41] <funcoot> thats busy
[10:41] <desertc> Fleshy is having a problem after Ubuntu installation -- X11 not configured for his NVIDIA card, and can't get to login screen
[10:41] <bliss> fleshy: thanks where can I get the deb package?
[10:41] <Flannel> funcoot: not
[10:41] <funcoot> not dangerous?
[10:41] <Flannel> funcoot: nope, that's how you're supposed to format them, unmounted
[10:42] <pr4b1> hi offtopic this is but any kind soul here who can provide me a demonoid.com invite? im a student of world cinema but cant afford to buy movies
[10:42] <mkquist> funcoot: if its not mounted, how can it be busy?
[10:42] <Flannel> !offtopic | pr4b1
[10:42] <ubotu> pr4b1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:42] <funcoot> no i meeean
[10:42] <funcoot> its mounted
[10:42] <funcoot> and busy
[10:42] <funcoot> is it dangerous to format it if its mounted and busy?
[10:42] <Flannel> !enter | funcoot
[10:42] <ubotu> funcoot: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:42] <mkquist> pr4b1 - ud do better of asking in a forum somewhere i think
[10:42] <Flannel> funcoot: yes.  Which is the exact opposite of what you just asked.
[10:43] <samtb> hi all. is it still necessary to have ubuntu-minimal/standard/desktop installed before doing dist-upgrade to a new release?
[10:43] <funcoot> What could be the possible outcomes?
[10:43] <samtb> how does this apply to the server edition?
[10:43] <funcoot> A permently destroyed hardrive?
[10:43] <mkquist> funcoot: prob unsuccessful format
[10:43] <desertc> fleshy: This is one of the few areas where Linux OS does not use open drivers, so there are always problems.  You might consider petitioning NVIDIA to open their drivers.
[10:43] <funcoot> would the hard drive be useless? or could i atleast then go to windows and format the rest of it through there?
[10:44] <Flannel> samtb: it was never necessary (you'd just possibly break things).  In server (and everything else), you need all the metapackages you plan on still having.  So, for a server, it'd be -minimal and -standard (and your proper kernel metapackage)
[10:44] <mkquist> funcoot: well it wont physically destroy the drive if thats what ur asking
[10:44] <samtb> well, yes, i mean without breaking things...
[10:44] <funcoot> will it make it useless basically?
[10:45] <arn_> hi, is there any GUI based scp program for file transfer for ubuntu? I mean, for windows we had winscp
[10:45] <samtb> it seems a bit annoying if e.g. i don't want openoffice/evolution to have to keep installing and removing it
[10:45] <albert> anyone knows how to fix google toolbar (bookmark) for firefox in ubuntu?
[10:45] <fraser_> does anyone know anything about a linux alternative to peerguardian?
[10:45] <funcoot> Could I hook up the drive AFTER i booted windows? And then format it?
[10:45] <mkquist> no might require a proper reformat to use it again.. if anything
[10:45] <Flannel> !firewall | fraser_
[10:45] <ubotu> fraser_: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[10:46] <fraser_> Flannel, okay, but a firewall doesn't protect me from non-malicious authorities does it?:P
[10:46] <funcoot> but I am having problems formating it, I basically need 2 OS's and a whole nothe rhardrive to format this one?
[10:47] <mkquist> funcoot: maybe - windows has a harder time (sometimes) with situations like that, why not just unmount it if ur gonna format it?
[10:47] <Ze_M> every time  i run adept_manager says: Youll not be able to change your system config (install, removal or software updates because theres already another process using system package database)      but thats impossiblecause i just nowlogin
[10:47] <Flannel> fraser_: it's a firewall.  You can use it to block whatever you'd like
[10:47] <funcoot> no I am trying to format this drive, this linux install.
[10:47] <Ze_M> any help?
[10:48] <NETWizz> I need help with desktop-effects
[10:48] <willvarfar> hmm: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=246988&highlight=640x480 but if this is a recurring problem, someone who knows how should flag this to ubuntu
[10:48] <NETWizz> I cannot make the cube work
[10:48] <fraser_> Flannel, yeah no, seems like it's much harder peerguardian. also, i have a NAT router, does this not to much the same thing?
[10:48] <NETWizz> Once I enable the cube, I have only one side
[10:48] <funcoot> waait I got an idea, what if i flag this drive to not boot
[10:48] <mkquist> FLannel - hed have to manually configure the ip addresses manually that peergaurdian takes care of while using his bit torrent proggie
[10:48] <mkquist> fraser - no
[10:48] <slytherin> Ze_M: It is possible that some process is checking for updates in background because you scheduled it that way. Check updates automatically. Just wait for some time.
[10:49] <Ze_M> slytherin: already killed adept_notifier and continues the same prob
[10:50] <Ze_M> slytherin: theres no other process using package db
[10:50] <Shaddox> Hi everyone. How do I install Envy in order to set up my nvidia drivers?
[10:50] <Flannel> fraser_: looks like there's a peer guardian for linux, that basically automatically manages firewall rules.  I'm sure there's others out there that do it as well, I don't know of any however.
[10:51] <fraser_> Flannel, thanks for the tip
[10:51] <slytherin> Ze_M: I am not using KDE. So can't tell you for sure.
[10:52] <Shaddox> How do I install Envy?
[10:52] <shutDK> Can anyone help a noob who needs some help in Gnome
[10:52] <Ze_M> how can i rebuildpackage databse
[10:52] <Flannel> Shaddox: don't.  Use the inbuilt driver installer.
[10:52] <fleshy> bliss, www.gtalk2voip.com
[10:52] <Flannel> Ze_M: sudo apt-get update
[10:52] <Shaddox> Flannel: I need to get a whole different kernel for it.
[10:53] <Flannel> Shaddox: what do you mean?
[10:53] <FireHazard17> !ask | shutDK
[10:53] <ubotu> shutDK: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:53] <Ze_M> Flannel: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[10:53] <Shaddox> Flannel: It's on the server kernel, and there's no restricted drivers for the server kernel.
[10:53] <shutDK> cool :D
[10:53] <Shaddox> Flannel: I know Envy works, though.
[10:53] <shutDK> Well when I try to add a server nothin appears
[10:53] <FireHazard17> add a server to what?
[10:54] <shutDK> to GNome
[10:54] <Flannel> Shaddox: why are you trying to add accelerated graphics to a server?
[10:54] <Ze_M> Flannel: now is installing packages after running  sudo dpkg --configure -a,seamssomeinstall broken
[10:54] <shutDK> edit, preferences, networks
[10:54] <FireHazard17> shutDK: what type of server?
[10:54] <shutDK> irc.***.*
[10:54] <FireHazard17> a network file server?
[10:54] <shutDK> I tried  few
[10:54] <Shaddox> Flannel: It gets used now and then for small games, that need opengl acceleration.
[10:56] <wizard> so no one really knows why a nic card would work in windows but not in linux?
[10:57] <slytherin> shutDK_: Which menu are you referring to? Where do you see Edit -> Preferences -> Network?
[10:57] <FireHazard17> wizard: no has written drivers for it maybe
[10:57] <bonde> how do i install python2.4-profiler
[10:57] <shutDK_> In the top of of GNome irc
[10:57] <wizard> FireHazard17: it worked 4 days prior
[10:57] <FireHazard17> oh
[10:57] <FireHazard17> then idk
[10:57] <wizard> FireHazard17: it suddenly stopped working in linux
[10:57] <wizard> but works in windows
[10:58] <FireHazard17> hmm interesting
[10:58] <Joshooa> Hey anyone here play that Endgame Singularity game?
[10:58] <shutDK_> Skrmbillede-Ubuntu S
[10:58] <wizard> in linux it doesn't so much as establish a connection link

[10:59] <warnet04> kapteen
[11:00] <shutDK_> Anyway.. In Windows I used to use this command ( /s irc.??.??)

[11:00] <wizard> slytherin: hold up

[11:13] <newb> When I try this command /Connect irc.**.**  it just says " This command is for network staff only"
[11:13] <n00dl3> FireHazard17: lmao!
[11:13] <Kasle> slytherin: it isn't... it's a totaly new disc
[11:13] <ziroday> newb: what irc client?
[11:14] <newb> GNome
[11:14] <FireHazard17> newb: try hanging a round a place for bout a year helping people then ask
[11:14] <n00dl3> ~_~
[11:14] <ziroday> newb: gnome is not a irc client, its a window manager. Do you meant gaim?
[11:14] <slytherin> Kasle: Then do as someone else suggested. Hols the insertion till it actually asks for disk.
[11:14] <kimmey2k3> try xchat
[11:14] <slytherin> ziroday: He means xchat-gnome
[11:14] <ziroday> oh rite
[11:14] <Kasle> slytherin: ok
[11:15] <newb> Xchat - GNome IRC
[11:15] <kimmey2k3> try /server irc.ex.ex
[11:15] <slytherin> ziroday: kimmey2k3: He is not able to connect to different server. Can you help him? /server is not working for him.
[11:16] <kimmey2k3> Then im not sure
[11:16] <ziroday> slytherin: well hes dissapeared now
[11:16] <Kohvihoor> newb: use "normal" xchat, instead that weird xchat gnome thingy
[11:17] <brianski> i ordered a machine from emperor linux and they put two swap partitions, one for swapping and one for suspend... is there any good reason to do this?
[11:17] <newb_> It worked
[11:17] <newb_> But it made this channel/servere disapear
[11:17] <newb_> How do I open new server windows
[11:17] <ziroday> newb_: why dont you try gaim you might find it easier to use
[11:17] <kimmey2k3> xchat is very simliar to mirc, maybe -m would work, im not sure
[11:17] <Frogzoo> brianski: only that if swap is full, you'll have trouble suspending without extra space
[11:18] <newb_> ziroday > Thanks. I will
[11:18] <brianski> Frogzoo - i see. if i'm using 2GB of swap and i try to suspent, i'm screwed... not sure why i'd want to do that tho :) thanks
[11:18] <Seveas> newb_, /server and /newserver are what you are looking for
[11:18] <slytherin> brianski: If the RAM is good enough, your swap will not actually get used. In that case You may not need second swap.
[11:19] <FireHazard17> newb : RTFM is what you are looking for
[11:19] <Seveas> !rtfm | FireHazard17

[11:31] <ziroday> rigo_: thats very odd, can you please press ctrl alt 7
[11:31] <Arnald> it ignores /etc/default
[11:31] <ziroday> *ctrl alt f7
[11:32] <Arnald> and even renaming th init script with a leading dot won't stop it loading
[11:32] <gonzoism> Arnald sudo chmod -x  /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon
[11:32] <gonzoism> Arnald killall -9 avahi-daemon
[11:33] <gonzoism> Arnald sudo killall -9 avahi-daemon
[11:33] <gonzoism> Arnald that should do it.
[11:33] <gonzoism> Arnald   what does avahi do ?
[11:33] <Arnald> gonzoism but that won't stop it working at boot
[11:33] <rigo_> :/
[11:33] <Arnald> I'll try the -x thing
[11:33] <gonzoism> Arnald  the chmod -x will.
[11:33] <Arnald> but if renamiong with a leading dot didn't work I'll be surprised
[11:34] <Darkkish> what do i do with a .run file
[11:34] <Darkkish> and a .bin file?
[11:34] <gonzoism> Arnald  everything that has the executable bit set in /etc/init.d/ gets run at boot.   dots or no dots.
[11:34] <DivideZero_> i want to install ubunto 7.04 , i can do it without damage xp ? [ i want to create with xp and proparition magic EXT3 proparition ]  and to instal on it the ubunto
[11:34] <gonzoism> Arnald  chmod -x turns that bit off.
[11:34] <Arnald> gonzoism: OK trying now
[11:35] <Arnald> gonzoism sure I get it ;)
[11:35] <Arnald> I thought something else (gconf) might be settign it off - why else does it ignore /etc/default settings?
[11:35] <slytherin> DivideZero_: Create apartition for Ubuntu and install it.
[11:37] <Arnald> gonzoism: that didn't work :(
[11:37] <Arnald> it's still running
[11:37] <Arnald> it's indestructible!
[11:37] <rigo_> ok, still not sure what to do :/
[11:38] <gonzoism> Arnald  did you reboot ?
[11:38] <Kohvihoor> Darkkish: ./yourfile.bin; ./yourfile.run; sh yourfile.run, etc
[11:39] <bakoel> huy
[11:39] <Arnald> gonzoism: yep, I do know what I'm doing ;)
[11:40] <gonzoism> Arnald i only asked because i didn't know what you did
[11:40] <Arnald> just all this autoconfig nonsense always ruins my netwroking
[11:40] <gonzoism> Arnald and i was trying to help
[11:40] <Arnald> gonzoism: sorry a bit jumpy there!
[11:40] <gonzoism> Arnald  its ok
[11:40] <gonzoism> Arnald  want me to try to help ?
[11:40] <Arnald> something (HAL) is abviously causing all init scxript settings to be ignored
[11:40] <Arnald> gonzoism: please do!
[11:41] <Arnald> I don't have a good track record fighting autoconfig stuff
[11:41] <gonzoism> is the avahi-dameon script in /etc/init.d/ still named "avahi-dameon" ?
[11:41] <Arnald> yes
[11:41] <Arnald> I took out the dot
[11:41] <Arnald> and it's non-executabl
[11:42] <gonzoism> and you did sudo chmod -x avahi-dameon and it didn't give an error ?
[11:42] <gonzoism> Arnald  do this:  cd /etc/init.d && grep avahi *
[11:42] <gonzoism> Arnald  did any other files mention avahi ?
[11:42] <Kohvihoor> why this line: /dev/hdb1       /media/server               ext3    defaults,user,noauto 0       1 doesn't automount that partition? : (
[11:42] <gonzoism> Kohvihoor noauto  means no auto mount
[11:43] <Kohvihoor> oh
[11:43] <gonzoism> Kohvihoor :)
[11:43] <Kohvihoor> thanks, gonzoism. : )
[11:43] <Arnald> gonzoism: that's the only one
[11:43] <gonzoism> Arnald  does ps ax|grep avahi show it ?
[11:44] <Arnald> not now - I killed it!  but it did before
[11:44] <Arnald> and I get an IP alias in ifconfig
[11:44] <Arnald> which overrrides my regular interface
[11:45] <sauvin> Are there any sftp GUI clients?
[11:45] <Arnald> it ignores my DHCP server and "discovers" a non-existent IP address for me :(
[11:45] <Arnald> it was fine until yesterday, must have been an update of something that I didn't notice
[11:46] <gonzoism> Arnald  try sudo apt-get remove avahi-daemon avahi-autoipd
[11:46] <gonzoism> Arnald surely it won't run if it isn't installed ?
[11:47] <Arnald> hehe it offers to remove ubuntu-desktop
[11:47] <Reubs> Hi, how do I make a program run itself on startup? I have tried sessions but it doesn't work. I believe it's because the program that I want to run on startup requires root privileges before it can run. i also tried appending sudo in front of the command but guess it doesn't work that way. Any suggestions?
[11:48] <ziroday> Reubs: append gksudo in front
[11:48] <evropeitz> hello
[11:48] <Reubs> ziroday so let's say if the program is called mk700bl
[11:49] <Reubs> i do gksudo mk700bl
[11:49] <Reubs> ?
[11:49] <leszek> hi
[11:49] <gonzoism> Arnald so no removing it, right ?
[11:51] <Reubs> thanks ziroday will try first
[11:51] <ziroday> reubsorry yes you do that
[11:52] <gonzoism> Arnald is this the box you are using now to chat with ?
[11:52] <ompaul> Official Ubuntu Support Channel | Please be patient and read the FAQ. | FAQ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions | Support options: http://www.ubuntu.com/support | IRC info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage | Pastes to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[11:53] <evropeitz> i need help with the drivers commands terminal and beryl stuff in here so who want to help talk to me cuz i'm scrowed up :(
[11:53] <Arnald> gonzoism: it's still there, but I'm onto it I think!
[11:54] <Arnald> gonzoism: it's a laptop in the other room
[11:54] <Arnald> so I'm getting a bit of exercise
[11:54] <ompaul> evropeitz, head into #ubuntu-effects  -- they know the answers :)
[11:54] <Arnald> gonzoism: I think it's avahi-autoipd in the network start-up area
[11:54] <Arnald> removing it now
[11:55] <gonzoism> ah.  good luck
[11:55] <gerzel> Are the ubuntu repositories down?  I've not been able to get synaptic to retreive the package lists all day.
[11:57] <ompaul> gerzel, what mirror are you pointing at (I have downloaded about a gig this morning from ie.archives.ubuntu.com
[11:59] <gerzel> ompaul: dunno, just went in and hit select best server.  Hopefully that will fix the problem.  eh yeah the duh soloution
[11:59] <gerzel> oookay no suitable download server was found
[11:59] <fraser_> guys, i have a couple of HD's attached to my comp, but they always appear on my desktop, and i don't want that. how do i remove them without removing the drive and smashing it?
[12:00] <Arnald> gonzoism: OK avahi is now gone but the network manager has still got an entry (wmaster0) that I can't delete - I think this is blocking my real interface
[12:02] <ompaul> gerzel, have you got any network connection from that box?
[12:02] <gerzel> ompaul: Ah tried again and think it cleared itself up.  I'm talking to you from that box
[12:02] <Arnald> why does Ubuntu keep wrecking my wireless??
[12:03] <gerzel> if this box doesn't have network connection I have bigger problems than the repositories.
[12:03] <ompaul> gerzel, check out the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list and tell me what is in a line in there with the http://
[12:04] <gerzel> ompaul: It seems to be fixed, I'm able to install stuff and get the repository lists
[12:05] <ompaul> gerzel, have fun
[12:05] <eth1c> I can now watch divx video's but it has no audio.. any help here?
[12:06] <arn_> hi, I have ubuntu with parallel windows 2k in same hdd.
[12:06] <Arnald> is the delete button on the network manager supposed to actually DO something?
[12:06] <ompaul> !wireless > Arnald (please check out the full information recorded by the community on wireless, it may give you some clue, you have received a url from the bot cheers )
[12:06] <gorski> why my searching application does not find files in directory even i indexed it???
[12:06] <arn_> Now i want to increase the size of my linux installtion. is there any way to do taht?
[12:06] <arn_> My ubuntu is running out of space

[12:06] <arn_> leszek, ok
[12:07] <gorski> why my searching application(Places>Search) does not find files in directory even i indexed it???
[12:08] <leszek> gorski: do you use beagle ?
[12:08] <Arnald> ompaul: hmmm lots of docs about how to set up networking from scratch, but not a lot about how to fix your networking when Ubuntu screws it up . . . :(
[12:08] <gorski> even beagle does not find files.
[12:08] <leszek> hmm is the beagle daemon running ?
[12:09] <gorski> ?
[12:09] <leszek> gorski: start beagled in the terminal
[12:09] <ompaul> Arnald, setting it up right helps lots, I would just start the install of the wireless part again, it should over write it all, wireless is a pain, it is one of the reasons I have a well wired house
[12:09] <leszek> gorski: and then try searching again
[12:09] <Lightenix> hello
[12:10] <Arnald> ompaul: I have my own networking setup, with firewall scripts etc. - I don't want autoconfig . . . it was all working fine until this morning . . .
[12:10] <Lightenix> how can i add device /dev/parport0 to some user, soo i wont need to use sudo to write to the device?
[12:10] <Arnald> I know how to set up networking, but I don't know how to fight Ubuntu . . .  :(
[12:10] <gorski> nothing
[12:11] <eth1c> I can now watch divx video's but it has no audio.. anyone know how to fix this??
[12:11] <ompaul> Arnald, then I wonder what has changed this morning, new apps etc
[12:11] <leszek> eth1c: do you installed gstreamer plugins ?

[12:12] <eth1c> let me see
[12:12] <eth1c> totem-gstreamer is
[12:13] <leszek> eth1c: you need to install gstreamer plugins from multiverse and universe repository
[12:13] <Arnald> ompaul: must have been yesterday's update, but I can't remember what was in it
[12:13] <eth1c> ahh, i dont know how to do that whole repository thing... O_O
[12:13] <Arnald> ompaul: it's a laptop, it gets restarted a lot!
[12:13] <Arnald> yes, I've rebooted at each stage to be sure
[12:13] <ompaul> Arnald,  do some dpkg-reconfigure on the network mangler and some of the other programs

[12:20] <AmyRose> Rayyan: if you want people to talk to you via PM, you're going to need to /msg nickserv set unfiltered on

[12:32] <kritzstapf> i deleted a NTFS partition and recreated it, now i think the UUID changed and the partition is no longer mounted in ubuntu, is there a gui way to fix this or should i edit the fstab?
[12:33] <leszek> kritzstapf: you need to edit the fstab
[12:33] <leszek> kritzstapf: with ls /dev/disk/by-uuid you can display the different uuids
[12:33] <snadge> has anyone else noticed a problem where metacity just fails to start (feisty, all updates applied)
[12:34] <Arnald> hmmm, perhaps Ubuntu has finally crossed that line where in the name of being newbie-friendly it has become just too hostile to experienced users . . . discuss?
[12:34] <polaru_> heloo
[12:34] <polaru_> romania?..
[12:35] <polaru_> enybody?
[12:35] <Geek_> Arnald: hostile how? all the linux underpinnings are there...
[12:37] <Arnald> yeah, but it's Ubuntu's way or the highway as far as I can tell. I had perfectly working networking until this morning, and now I can't restore it because of all manner of auto/zero/cong nonsense
[12:38] <Arnald> Geek_: until yesterday, Ubuntu followed my /etc/networking interfaces file - now it does not - so what of the "underpinnings" in this case?
[12:39] <stian> hi  guys. wondering if Alltray can start Evolution automaticly on startup ?
[12:39] <stian> and how ?
[12:39] <Arnald> Geek_:  betweekn AVAHI, hal, and network manager, I haven't a clue what's going on
[12:39] <Arnald> and googling just puts you into "ndiswrapper hell"
[12:40] <Arnald> I'm not the only one asking WTF wmaster0 is on Google . . .
[12:41] <stian> nobody?
[12:41] <[TGG] B-O-R-N-E-O> identify owned
[12:41] <stian> what ?
[12:42] <stian> ups
[12:42] <W_o_r[l] d> gh
[12:42] <Arnald> I'm seriously considering blowing the whole lot away and installing Debian . . . I wanted to do things on that laptop this AM and now it's lunchtime . . .
[12:42] <Geek_> Arnald: but a real advanced user wouldn't need zeroconf, or a CLI ;p
[12:42] <Arnald> Geek_: you are making my point for me , thakn you!
[12:42] <Geek_> *Gui
[12:42] <Geek_> so... do a server install, and install just what you need
[12:43] <Arnald> Geek_: but what does Ubuntu layer invisbly on top of it's server install, and am I prepared to spend a day finding out?  I know where I am with Debian . . .
[12:43] <Geek_> almost noting, least with my LTS
[12:44] <Arnald> trouble is all this newbie stuff is tied in with ubuntu-desktop, so you don;t get the benefit of the rest fo the intergration if you don't have that
[12:44] <Tinned_Tuna> heya
[12:44] <Arnald> and if you throw away that integration, you might as well just be using Debian
[12:44] <Geek_> i thought you didn't want the newbie stuff?
[12:45] <Tinned_Tuna> how easy is it to get a harware RAID up and running under Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Server?
[12:45] <Arnald> I want the newbie stuff, AND I want Ubuntu to observe the settings it had no problem with until yersterday
[12:45] <Geek_> then again my sole ubuntu install in use now is a VM, and i acess it through putty... so...
[12:45] <filip> Hi, ive got a problem thats hopefully easy to solve, with one of my partitions. It says that i dont have acces to do anything on it.
[12:45] <Arnald> what I DONT want is Ubuntu stomping all over my settings
[12:46] <kritzstapf> everytime i burn a dvd with k3b, after ejecting the disk the drive is note ready for commands anymore ("/dev/hdd not ready for command") - ideas?
[12:46] <Arnald> I like the integration aspect, but I would like it to be optional, as it was yesterday
[12:46] <nielsbosworth> filip: What are you trying to do to which partition? Some partitions aren't accessible to normal users, but only to the super user
[12:46] <Arnald> especially since this is post-release - WTF is a change like that happening post-release?
[12:47] <BaldiNO> ok I wil try again; how do I start Evolution mail with Alltray on startup ?
[12:47] <Dusk_> i have 2 partitions on my harddisk...if i merge 2 partitions is there be any problem with ubuntu??
[12:48] <filip> nielsbosworth. its only made for storage,  but i cant do anything on it.
[12:48] <nanoteker> ok, gurb doesn't understand linux style hdd names? so sda1 = ? hd1? but my main confusion is that fstab and fdisk are showing two diffrent devices as being sda1; all n all my second hdd has windoze on it, and it is comming up as sda1 under fdisk, and the fstab only displays the partition of the first disk, as it should since the active ubuntu install is on it. Question, what's the grub name for the second disk?
[12:49] <BaldiNO> I mean, Can I start Evolution Mail minimized on startup ?
[12:49] <Dusk_> i have 2 partitions on my harddisk...if i merge 2 partitions is there be any problem with ubuntu??
[12:49] <nielsbosworth> filip: in the properties, on the permissions tab, you kan see who has which permissions to access the partition. If you aren't on there, that is likely your problem
[12:49] <leszek> Dusk_: if both a linux partition with the same filesystem : NO
[12:50] <leszek> +are
[12:50] <kwtm> I am *mad*. I just spent two hours trying to get Beryl running again on my Dellbuntu laptop (the one that Dell sells that comes with Ubuntu preinstalled).  It turns out that some new Ubuntu update overwrote my xorg.conf file (withOUT doing a backup), and all I had to do was restore an old backup.  (Good thing I made a backup myself.)
[12:50] <Dusk_> leszek, yes both are linux partition with ext3
[12:50] <leszek> Dusk_: then it will work :D
[12:50] <kwtm> Is there some apt/dpkg log that shows which packages were recently installed and what files they contained?
[12:50] <killerfaultier> Is there an german ubuntu help channel?
[12:51] <killerfaultier> how can I find one?
[12:51] <Geek_> !german
[12:51] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[12:51] <nielsbosworth> killerfaultier: #ubuntu-de glaube ich :)
[12:51] <howlingmadhowie> !de | killerfaultier
[12:51] <ubotu> killerfaultier: please see above
[12:51] <killerfaultier> ok, thx
[12:52] <kwtm> Dusk_: As long as the second one is not the one you are booting from!  (E.g. if you have sda1 and sda2, and you are booting from sda2, then if you merge the two, then sda1+sda2 becomes sda1, and if grub is trying to boot from sda2, it won't find it.)
[12:52] <howlingmadhowie> killerfaultier: oder wenn du willst, kannst du mich fragen :)
[12:52] <howlingmadhowie> (but i think the others would get annoyed if we started speaking german)
[12:52] <filip> niels: "Owner: root, Group: root"  it also says that im not the owner so i can not change the permissions.    Is there a sulution on my problem?
[12:52] <nielsbosworth> howlingmadhowie: they usually do
[12:52] <nielsbosworth> howlingmadhowie: :-D
[12:53] <pawan> how to automatically start compiz in ubuntu
[12:53] <Dusk_> kwtm, sda6+sda7..booting with sda7
[12:53] <kwtm> Dusk_: Then you better not merge the partitions.
[12:53] <Dusk_> kwtm, thanks a lot
[12:53] <leszek> pawan: you need to add beryl in the autostart of the session manager
[12:54] <Jokk> hello
[12:54] <kwtm> Dusk_: Rather, you can try: copying the contents of sda6 to sda7, then shrinkg sda6 so that it's so small that it doesn't matter (say, 3MB or 0.5MB?), and expanding sda7 to take up the space.
[12:54] <Jokk> how to install w32codecs
[12:54] <Jokk> ?
[12:54] <nielsbosworth> filip: yes. You need to edit the permissions as root. press [alt] +[F2]  to see the "run" dialog
[12:54] <CheshireViking> !32codecs | Jokk
[12:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 32codecs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:55] <leszek> Jokk: download the deb and doubleclick it
[12:55] <CheshireViking> !w32codecs | Jokk
[12:55] <ubotu> Jokk: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[12:55] <Tinned_Tuna> !w32codecs | Jokk
[12:55] <Dusk_> kwtm, i don't want any content on sda6 to sda7..i just want more diskspace on sda7(ubuntu)
[12:55] <Jokk> leszek, link to that deb
[12:55] <nielsbosworth> filip: enter "gksu nautilus" without the quotes. This starts a file-manager with root permissions.
[12:55] <eth1c> !w32codecs | eth1c
[12:55] <kwtm> Dusk_: I don't know what program you plan to use.  If it's PartEd, gPartEd, or QtPartEd, know that I had some trouble moving and resizing partitions --some things it can't do.  I ended up using PartitionExpert, but some people like PartitionMagic, which is more popular.  For both of those, you have to pay. (I paid $45 for PartitionExpert.)
[12:55] <leszek> Jokk wait a sec
[12:55] <warnet05> iksan
[12:56] <Dusk_> kwtm, i use gparted live cd generally
[12:56] <leszek> Jokk: http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/
[12:56] <nielsbosworth> Dusk_: I've done merging and resizing several times with qparted without any trouble
[12:56] <leszek> the deb file :D big one ;)
[12:56] <Dusk_> kwtm, so if i format sda6 and merge sda6+sda7 it's a problem then?
[12:56] <filip> niels, strange, as root i cant even see the disk
[12:57] <Jokk> leszek, is it goin to work ?
[12:57] <nielsbosworth> filip: are you in the correct directory?
[12:57] <leszek> yes
[12:57] <howlingmadhowie> Jokk: if you want to watch wmv files etc, i find it easier to just install and use vlc
[12:57] <Jokk> tnx
[12:57] <kwtm> Dusk_: See if gparted works.  Hope it does.  For future reference: I try to put all my boot partitions near the beginning of the disk, and then a large data partition would be at the end.  That way I don't cause too much trouble with names of partitions changing when I merge.
[12:57] <kwtm> Dusk_: Well, you would need to tell grub to boot from sda6, not sda7.
[12:57] <Jokk> howlingmadhowie, i want to watch internet tv
[12:57] <kwtm> Dusk_: I think, in grub, sda6 is hd(0,5) or something like that.
[12:57] <leszek> howlingmadhowie: perhaps he just wants to watch bad bad (scheisse) Real Player videos :D
[12:57] <Dusk_> kwtm, how will i configure grub?
[12:58] <kwtm> Anyone able to answer my question?  How can I get a log of recently installed packages?
[12:58] <kwtm> !grub
[12:58] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[12:58] <howlingmadhowie> leszek: okay :) do people still use real player?
[12:58] <leszek> Jokk: that works with vlc :D
[12:58] <leszek> howlingmadhowie: real player is kacke
[12:58] <kwtm> !drub| Dusk_
[12:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about drub - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:58] <kwtm> !grub| Dusk_
[12:58] <ubotu> Dusk_: please see above
[12:58] <howlingmadhowie> leszek: i see you know the most important words :)
[12:58] <Dusk_> thanks kwtm
[12:59] <Jokk> leszek, so i need vlc ?
[12:59] <kwtm> Dusk_: Sorry, I don't know too much myself, except: you need to find some grub config file, possibly in /boot/grub.conf or something, and then modify it.
[12:59] <leszek> vlc or w32codecs doesnt matter
[12:59] <leszek> howlingmadhowie: schau mal ubuntu-de :D
[12:59] <nanoteker> i am so lame...could someone help? i've been all over the grub manuals and walkthroughs...wtf is the second hdd called for grub?
[12:59] <kwtm> Dusk_: MAKE A BACKUP!!  Once you change the file, grub will start using your changes at next boot.  You do NOT have to "tell grub about the changes", unlike LILO.
[12:59] <howlingmadhowie> leszek: as one says nowadays: the ten-cent piece falls centwise :)
[01:00] <nanoteker> btw...i'm SOOO lame, the i've spent all DAY yesterday on this..
[01:00] <Dusk_> kwtm, ok
[01:00] <leszek> :D
[01:00] <kwtm> nanoteker: 2nd physical hard drive would be hd(1,0), hd(1,1), hd(1,2) etc. (the first, second, and third partitions)
[01:00] <kwtm> nanoteker: The first physical hard drive is hd(0,0), hd(0,1), etc.
[01:01] <nanoteker> i'll let you ppls know if it worked
[01:01] <nanoteker> i'm in vi now
[01:01] <kwtm> When I find the ****ing Ubuntu maintainer who decided to overwrite my xorg.conf file without making a backup, I'll shove his head so far up his ass that every time he sneezes, he farts.
[01:02] <niru> after installation my laptop does not show the function keys working
[01:02] <howlingmadhowie> kwtm: that's quite a vivid mental picture
[01:02] <TomPurnell> I've added a new sata harddrive to my Feisty system and it's detected as /dev/sda. however, the partitions are not auto mounted. what is the preferred ubuntu way to do this? /etc/fstab ?
[01:02] <niru> like for fn+F7 volume up etc
[01:02] <niru> is not working
[01:02] <niru> what is the package for doing that
[01:03] <korncob> Hey can anyone here help me i have a bunch of problems with ubuntu
[01:03] <kwtm> howlingmadhowie: For all its user friendliness, Ubuntu still hasn't figured out how to properly handle the xorg.conf file without overwriting the whole bloody thing.  I can't believe it.
[01:03] <kwtm> Oh, well, I'll go read up on dpkg or something and see if there's some log file.
[01:03] <kwtm> Bye, all!
[01:03] <leszek> cu all
[01:04] <korncob> Hey can anyone here help me? I have a bunch of problems with ubuntu >>
[01:04] <CheshireViking> !anyone | korncob
[01:04] <ubotu> korncob: 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?
[01:05] <nanoteker> oh yeah, the terminal remembering the commands from the last booted session...thank you ubuntu! btw, rebooting...works!!!
[01:05] <korncob> well theres like 5 and their complicated
[01:05] <nanoteker> :)
[01:05] <korncob> Ok
[01:06] <nanoteker> ok, next obstical, parallels on my macbook...
[01:06] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: well let's start with the first one then :)
[01:06] <korncob> My first problem has to do with cedega not installing
[01:06] <nanoteker> but that's for another room
[01:06] <variant> I have multiple java programs that each require a different version of the jvm. Can I select which jvm to use per application or do I keep having to switch the default vm each time I want to start a java app?
[01:06] <korncob> i downloaded it and extracted the CPKG and the TGZ
[01:06] <korncob> and i'm not sure where to go from there
[01:07] <howlingmadhowie> variant: if you're using the command line, you can just select a different jvm for each one
[01:07] <korncob> because the wiki link i was using to install it didn't tell me how to install the rest of it
[01:07] <variant> korncob: read the instructions on transgaming site
[01:07] <variant> howlingmadhowie: how do you mean?
[01:07] <korncob> um i did but they won't tell me what to do after that
[01:07] <insane_alien> hey guys
[01:08] <variant> howlingmadhowie: you mean start it with the full path to the jvm?
[01:08] <insane_alien> can anyone recommend a wireless router to me. my belkin just went to silicon heaven.
[01:08] <howlingmadhowie> variant: the jvms are in /usr/lib/jvm. exactly, just use the full path or create some symbolic links in /usr/bin with similar names
[01:08] <variant> howlingmadhowie: cool, thanks
[01:09] <vb> how to use the movie cover which is in jpg ?
[01:09] <korncob> ok w.e i'll get that later
[01:09] <korncob> my second question is about beryl
[01:09] <korncob> i type ./configure
[01:09] <korncob> and it gives me an error
[01:10] <korncob> and the add/remove programs thing isn't working nor are sudo commands so i can't install it that way
[01:11] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: what error does it give you?
[01:12] <howlingmadhowie> (i thought it was quijibo)
[01:12] <korncob> um
[01:12] <korncob> hold on
[01:12] <korncob> configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[01:12] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: have you installed build-essentials?
[01:13] <IdleOne> build-essential

[01:13] <korncob> er i can't use sudo so apparently no
[01:13] <korncob> because i remember trying to use sudo for that
[01:13] <davf> Is there a package like kmobiletools for gnome?
[01:13] <IdleOne> korncob, why cant you use sudo?
[01:13] <korncob> It just won't install
[01:13] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: you can install software over system->administration->synaptic package manager
[01:13] <korncob> it says it installs
[01:13] <korncob> but when i got to use it it won't work
[01:14] <Pici> !doesn'twork | korncob
[01:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about doesn'twork - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:14] <Pici> ..
[01:14] <vb> how do i use the dvd cover which are in jpg ?
[01:14] <CheshireViking> !work | korncob
[01:14] <ubotu> korncob: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[01:15] <CheshireViking> Pici, was that what your were looking for?
[01:15] <korncob> um theres no description to it
[01:15] <Pici> CheshireViking: Yes.
[01:15] <korncob> if i had to describe it it would be null
[01:15] <korncob> -.-
[01:15] <Pici> CheshireViking: need more caffeine this morning
[01:15] <IdleOne> korncob, try sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:15] <korncob> because the command just plain doesn't move
[01:15] <davf> anyone know how I can get my phone book off my T610. obex works for browsing files.

[01:16] <IdleOne> show us
[01:16] <korncob> how do i make it stop worrying about it
[01:16] <Pici> !paste | korncob
[01:16] <ubotu> korncob: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:16] <korncob> Reading package lists... Done
[01:16] <korncob> Building dependency tree
[01:16] <korncob> Reading state information... Done
[01:16] <korncob> E: The package virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[01:16] <korncob> oh
[01:16] <korncob> >_>
[01:17] <korncob> sorry
[01:17] <howlingmadhowie> davf: i had problems with my old siemens S65 doing this. i eventually managed to export the contacts in the phone book in vcf format and the phone put them in a directory which i coudl see over obex
[01:17] <IdleOne> korncob, sudo apt-get remove --purge virtualbox
[01:17] <mattwalston> Where can I find a list of technical differences between the server and desktop spin?
[01:17] <korncob> says the same thing as above
[01:17] <IdleOne> anything else
[01:17] <IdleOne> ?
[01:17] <korncob> nope
[01:18] <eth1c> ty for the support with the audio on divx files =]  working now
[01:18] <korncob> just says the same 4 lines
[01:18] <IdleOne> what command did you use to install virtualbox?
[01:18] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: at least we know that sudo works :)
[01:18] <korncob> i just opened it
[01:18] <IdleOne> how?
[01:18] <korncob> um i double clicked it lol
[01:18] <Pici> !server > mattwalston (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[01:18] <davf> howlingmadhowie. I'll try that.
[01:18] <IdleOne> korncob, you need to be very specific with your answers
[01:18] <korncob> thats what i did, i double clicked it
[01:18] <IdleOne> ok
[01:18] <korncob> pressed extract
[01:18] <Pici> korncob: Where did you get it?
[01:19] <korncob> and it froze so i relogged to fix it
[01:19] <mattwalston> Pici: thanks
[01:19] <Pici> mattwalston: Yep
[01:19] <korncob> i got it from vmware.com i beleive
[01:19] <korncob> yah
[01:20] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: have a look here: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
[01:20] <korncob> oh i don't need it installed
[01:21] <IdleOne> one time I had to do a clean install because of virtualbox
[01:21] <korncob> i tried to install it before because i thought i needed it but i was told wine or something else would work
[01:21] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: scroll down the page to the list of repositories for  "debian-based linux distributions"
[01:21] <korncob> for playing windows games
[01:21] <predrag> hi
[01:21] <predrag> guzy any way u can run windows
[01:21] <predrag> aplication in
[01:21] <predrag> ubuntu
[01:21] <IdleOne> !wine | predrag
[01:21] <ubotu> predrag: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[01:22] <predrag> is it any good
[01:22] <predrag> okii thanx
[01:22] <IdleOne> try it
[01:22] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: my idea would be to add one of the virtualbox repositories to your repository list (/etc/apt/sources.list) and then try to remove virtualbox
[01:22] <mattwalston> If I am having a fairly minimal graphical install with ltsp do I want a preemtable kernel?
[01:22] <predrag> i just installed ubuntu linux for first time on my x31 running beryl its awsome
[01:23] <davf> anyone familiar with gammu? or can point me to an irc?
[01:23] <korncob> ok how do i do that?
[01:23] <howlingmadhowie> mattwalston: i'd have thought everybody nowadays wants preemptable kernels
[01:24] <mattwalston> howlingmadhowie: thanks, I am coming back to linux after a 2 year motorcycle trek w/o a computer so I am a little time warped
[01:24] <casalgohe> olaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[01:24] <TomPurnell> davf: gammu is the cell phone kit?
[01:25] <IdleOne> korncob, open a terminal and type sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:25] <mattwalston> How about lvm2?  Is their much of a performance hit?
[01:25] <korncob> ok
[01:25] <IdleOne> korncob, what version of ubuntu you running?
[01:25] <korncob> 6.10
[01:26] <howlingmadhowie> korncob: navigate in your file browser to /etc/apt and then click on sources.list. enter your password. add the correct line for your system from the list of repositories on http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads (probably deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian edgy non-free) and save
[01:26] <Splitburst> hello all, i have a problem. When i installed the nvidia driver in ubunto the sytem "broke" down
[01:26] <Splitburst> it says that the x server is miss configerd something
[01:26] <IdleOne> korncob, you got sources.list open?
[01:26] <howlingmadhowie> Splitburst: if i remember correctly, there are lots of nvidia drivers. you have to make sure to install the right one for your card
[01:27] <Splitburst> i see,
[01:27] <korncob> added the line you gave to the sourcelist howling
[01:27] <Splitburst> it was ubunto that chosed =(
[01:27] <korncob> so i think i got it :x
[01:27] <Splitburst> how to redo this then?
[01:27] <howlingmadhowie> Splitburst: for example, i have an old geforce 440 and the current driver no longer supports it, so i have to download the old driver and compile it myself
[01:27] <korncob> so what do i do after that
[01:27] <IdleOne> korncob, now save the changes go back to terminal and sudo apt-get update
[01:27] <Splitburst> howlingmadhowie okay, i got the new 8800gts
[01:28] <TomPurnell> howlingmadhowie: doesnt the legacy driver support it?
[01:28] <Splitburst> howlingmadhowie but how to redo this so i cant install anoter driver?
[01:28] <korncob> ok that ran
[01:28] <IdleOne> korncob, any errors?
[01:28] <korncob> nope
[01:28] <predrag> #bosna
[01:28] <howlingmadhowie> Splitburst: just to get you back to the land of window managers: open /etc/X11/xorg.conf and scan down the file to where you see a driver called "nvidia" or similar. change the driver to "vesa" and restart x
[01:28] <korncob> well wait
[01:28] <korncob> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[01:28] <IdleOne> ok now try sudo apt-get remove --purge virtualbox

[01:31] <Geek_> Splitburst: xchat2 on XP. so? ;p
[01:31] <Pici> proog: No, not really. hmm let me think about this for a minute

[01:32] <Splitburst> got xp, vista and ubunto installed.
[01:32] <korncob> yes
[01:32] <Splitburst> Geek_ hehe what?
[01:32] <howlingmadhowie> Splitburst: and is the computer with ubuntu on which needs to be fixed also running at the moment?
[01:32] <Splitburst> i hate MS i really do thats why am trying to learn ubunto and see if its posible to have a stable fps in games
[01:32] <IdleOne> korncob, got me
[01:33] <Splitburst> howlingmadhowie same pc, so i need to get the first steps so i can start a chat with u when on ubunto
[01:33] <Geek_> Splitburst: i'm on a windows XP system. i SSH into my linux virtual servers ;p
[01:33] <proog> Pici: when i edit the file and reboot/shut off the system and on again, it reverts back to the standard license/warranty message
[01:33] <sk8> hi guys, I have an older ubuntu installation and the grub loader got deleted, how can I boot it using the install cd?
[01:33] <Splitburst> Geek_ am not that skilled hehe, or well its not that hard but i only have one  pc atm
[01:33] <korncob> alright, back to windows XP for me >_> bb
[01:33] <howlingmadhowie> Splitburst: when you start the ubuntu computer, do this:
[01:33] <IdleOne> Splitburst, Ubuntu not ubunto
[01:34] <Geek_> Splitburst: on one PC ;p
[01:34] <Splitburst> IdleOne yeye =)
[01:34] <howlingmadhowie> Splitburst: sudo apt-get install ircii
[01:34] <Splitburst> howlingmadhowie ok np
[01:34] <ZeroA4> Splitburst, If you really hate MS... you should NOT buy games for MS systems... Linux Games are certain to run well on linux ;)
[01:34] <Pici> proog: Okay.  It seems that on debian systems, /etc/motd gets rebuilt at every login. (news to me) So, you need to edit /etc/motd.tail   see `man motd.tail` for more information.
[01:34] <howlingmadhowie> Splitburst: hang on, i'll put it on pastebin...
[01:34] <howlingmadhowie> !pastebin
