[07:27] <grndslm> jeduan:  thanx
[07:27] <sproingie> splitty splitty.  time for my daily bitching about how much irc topology sucks
[07:28] <bulmer> Oritemis: do you have a firewall in front of your machine or machine have firewall enabled?
[07:28] <Tekneek> I tried to boot up from the CD on ver. 6.10 and all I saw was brown background with a distorted window. I heard a sound then nothing happens, just sits there.
[07:28] <jeduan> hey, any recomendation for a b/w laser printer, i'm looking for a cheapo one like samsung 1610
[07:29] <verma> can I run 32-bit applications on an x86_64 arch machine?
[07:29] <Oritemis> bulmer, yes, I have a firewall. The port is set to allow connections, And after stop the firewall I still unenable to connect.

[07:30] <jimmio> configure:7745: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
[07:30] <jimmio> See `config.log' for more details.
[07:30] <jeduan> PiNE, i hear the support is ok, but you can try it first on parallels if you want
[07:30] <bulmer> Oritemis: if I were you, disable your firewall temporarily then trace the problem, then upon confirming connectivity you activate your firewall rules
[07:30] <PiNE> jeduan, what are parallels?
[07:31] <Oritemis> bulmer, already done.
[07:31] <bulmer> Ortemis what is the exact error if you get any when you connecT?
[07:31] <Oritemis> no connection, even with firewall desabled
[07:31] <elvis> can someone help me please
[07:31] <jimmio> configure:7745: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
[07:31] <jimmio> See `config.log' for more details.

[07:33] <Mirrakor> Is it possible that someone insert his install cd, and can set up a ssh server, so that I can access it and do the text-mode-install from remote?
[07:33] <Oritemis> bulmer, tryied many options, live mysql administrator, openoffice and kine(?).
[07:33] <jeduan> rockergurl you can put it on ~/.icons or drag and drop it on gnome-theme-manager
[07:33] <eric> any experience with tuner tv card wintv-pci-fm with the new conexant chipset
[07:33] <ardchoille> rockergurl: You can unpack them into ~/.icons for your user or /usr/share/icons for system-wide use.
[07:34] <bulmer> Oritemis: can you private me the exact command line using mysql client?
[07:34] <eric> wich IRC chanel will be
[07:34] <elvis> anyone help me?
[07:34] <neil__> hey all
[07:34] <neil__> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13392/
[07:34] <neil__> can some1 look at that
[07:34] <ardchoille> bulmer: Did you turn filtered on?
[07:34] <neil__> top is with beryl, bottom is without
[07:34] <neil__> MASSIVE fps difference!!
[07:35] <bulmer> ardchoille: not i, i can connect to his server, its him that cant connect
[07:35] <LjL> /whowas mythos_
[07:35] <Oritemis> bulmer, I don't tryied mysql client yet.
[07:35] <Oritemis> bulmer, can you give me the command throug sql client?
[07:35] <ardchoille> bulmer: He id identified to nickserv, you aren't. He won't be seeing any of your posts in pm. just FYI
[07:35] <jeduan> elvis can you write on it with root access?
[07:35] <Mirrakor> is it possible to do a remote installation via ssh for kubuntu, with the CD version? and If yes, how?
[07:36] <bulmer> thanks for the reminder ardchoille
[07:36] <rockergurl> how can I get to  /usr/share/icons?
[07:36] <elvis32> ok i was here last night then lol
[07:37] <bulmer> Oritemis  i used  mysql -h emysql.mestrar.com.br -u usernamehere -ppasswordhere
[07:37] <Oritemis> bulmer, ok.
[07:37] <elvis32> jeduan i aint tryed that
[07:37] <starz> anyone tried feisty?
[07:37] <rockergurl> jeduan:how do I get to  /usr/share/icons
[07:38] <starz> on something with low hardware?
[07:38] <jeduan> elvis32 try it to see if it's a permission thing or an fstab thing
[07:38] <elvis32> ok will try
[07:38] <jeduan> rockergurl, what do you mean?
[07:38] <CheshireViking> elvis32, is it mounted through your fstab at bootup
[07:39] <xtknight> rockergurl, "nautilus /usr/share/icons"
[07:39] <rockergurl> Juduan: how do I get to that folder to put the files in
[07:39] <Oritemis> bulmer, ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'emysql.mestrar.com.br' (111)
[07:39] <xtknight> rockergurl, you need root for that folder, though.  so "gksu nautilus /usr/share/icons"
[07:39] <rockergurl> thank you
[07:40] <elvis32> my mouse wont share when i go to switch user
[07:40] <mrigns> rockergurl: i think u could put them in /home/<your name>/.icons/
[07:40] <mrigns> too
[07:40] <xtknight> you could also
[07:40] <xtknight> but then gksu synaptic will not pick up the theme
[07:40] <elvis32> cheshshire its auto mounted
[07:40] <merick> when switching from a crt monitor with a standard vga connector to a flat panel with dvi, will ubuntu detect the change or will I need to set it up manually?
[07:40] <xtknight> so /usr/share/icons is a better idea unless you also want to put them in /root/.icons/
[07:40] <bulmer> merick did you try yet?
[07:41] <xtknight> merick, i believe it will.  although may be some complications.
[07:41] <jeduan> oh, xtknight that's a great tip, didn't know that
[07:41] <merick> not yet, i wanted to ask here first
[07:41] <bulmer> merick go ahead you try it, i give you full permissions...lolz
[07:41] <merick> just in case I did need to change something
[07:41] <madmax> hello
[07:41] <merick> lol
[07:41] <xtknight> !hi | madmax
[07:41] <ubotu> madmax: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:41] <kysiragi> can someone give me a guide to loading wifi drivers through ndiswrapper?
[07:41] <xtknight> merick, `sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg`  after you get your lcd
[07:42] <CheshireViking> elvis32, rite, as jeduan suggested, best to check whether you can write to it as something other than your normal user
[07:42] <madmax> I need help regarding an external hard drive
[07:42] <xtknight> !ask | madmax, elaborate
[07:42] <CarlFK> swfplayer says: open dsp: Device or resource busy
[07:42] <ubotu> madmax, elaborate: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:42] <ubuntuEdgy> is wakeon lan and "ring" diffrent ?
[07:42] <CarlFK> how do I find out what is using it?
[07:42] <elvis32> cheshire it wont share the mouse (touchpad)#
[07:42] <xtknight> CarlF1, fuser /dev/dsp
[07:42] <madmax> I can see everything on it, but can not write to it
[07:42] <madmax> using ubuntu
[07:42] <bulmer> madmax man pmount
[07:42] <Jowi> apt-cache policy show me the current and previous version of a package. is there a way to go back to that older version?
[07:43] <jrib> Jowi: sudo apt-get install PACKAGE=VERSION
[07:43] <xtknight> indeed
[07:43] <Jowi> thanks jrib :)
[07:43] <johnficca> anyone know how to install the nimbus theme for amd64?
[07:43] <madmax> it always says that i dont have permission
[07:43] <merick> ok, thanks
[07:43] <merick> exit
[07:43] <elvis32> ok brb need to log of this one
[07:43] <merick> lol
[07:43] <xtknight> madmax, do you know about fstab?
[07:44] <Mirthy> Anyone know what the program is called that can run Windows XP in Linux?
[07:44] <madmax> not reallly
[07:44] <madmax> oops
[07:44] <xtknight> Mirthy, virtualization, i.e. VMware, Xen, VirtualBox
[07:44] <madmax> not really
[07:44] <SlimeyPete> Mirthy: Qemu, VMWare, VirtualBox
[07:44] <Mirthy> You know which of those is the most popular?
[07:44] <Nehal> i can't get my wireless network going, i'm currently following the wireless trouble shooting page, but when i try to run 'sudo iwconfig eth0 essid "myssid" ap any commit' i get error operation not permitted.
[07:44] <xtknight> vmware
[07:44] <Mirthy> Okay, thanks.
[07:44] <xtknight> also the best, probably
[07:44] <SlimeyPete> VMware, but it's not free.
[07:45] <xtknight> it is $0
[07:45] <Mirthy> Oh, not free? :(
[07:45] <xtknight> but not open souce
[07:45] <Jowi> jrib, the package seem to be a metapackage and only the metapackage seem to get downgraded. do you know if there is a way to resolve that as well?
[07:45] <Mirthy> Oh o_O
[07:45] <xtknight> vmware server/player is free
[07:45] <madmax> will fstab change the permissions?
[07:45] <xtknight> workstation $$
[07:45] <fwedew> how can i enable the terminal to accept control+v instead of control+shift+v to paste things?
[07:45] <jrib> Jowi: nope
[07:45] <Mirthy> I see, I see.
[07:45] <xtknight> server/player roughly == workstation
[07:45] <SlimeyPete> mmm, but workstation isn't, and that's the most useful one for an individual
[07:45] <Mirthy> Hehe
[07:45] <xtknight> only thing missing is shared folders i think
[07:45] <jrib> Jowi: (I don't know, there may be a way)
[07:45] <Mirthy> You ever use it before xtknight?
[07:45] <xtknight> Mirthy, tons
[07:45] <rockergurl> jeduan:sorry, one more question. How do i change the icon theme?
[07:45] <tommy> Hello, anyone tried installing the OpenChrome 3d drivers as described on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome ?
[07:45] <Mirthy> Awesome.
[07:45] <xtknight> everyday
[07:45] <Mirthy> Nice :O
[07:46] <xtknight> ive always used Qemu and pretty much everything else
[07:46] <xtknight> vmware is the best
[07:46] <johnficca> anyone know how to install the nimbus theme for amd64?
[07:46] <Mirthy> I'm going to check that out then :D
[07:46] <kcusr1> Hi...can someone tell me how to install Ubuntu using text mode from the CD?  I have an X600 card, which X does not support by default
[07:46] <jeduan> open gnome-theme-manager, go to details and then icons
[07:46] <shmeelAway> hi, i'm on a laptop but want to use a external monitor, but the only way i can get to the external is by restarting, the key fnf6 won't work. can anyone helP?
[07:46] <xtknight> madmax, find the drive in "sudo lshw -short -class disk" and paste the corresponding line
[07:46] <Jowi> jrib, well, i try to find the depends and see if apt will be kind to me
[07:46] <SpOrTiF> wow
[07:47] <SpOrTiF> Nice channel
[07:47] <xtknight> !alternate | kcusr1
[07:47] <ubotu> kcusr1: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[07:47] <xtknight> !hi | SpOrTiF
[07:47] <ubotu> SpOrTiF: Hi!  But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[07:47] <xtknight> ;)
[07:47] <fwedew> anyone knows how to enable ctrl+v on terminal? ubuntu ofcourse :)
[07:47] <xtknight> fwedew, good question.  although right click paste works (guessing you already knew)
[07:47] <elvis32> ok i can edit in rot
[07:47] <jrib> fwedew: use ctrl-shift-v
[07:47] <tommy> guess not
[07:48] <fwedew> jrib i know that
[07:48] <SpOrTiF> xtknight how i can see all operator of this channel?
[07:48] <xtknight> ctrl shift v doesnt do it for me
[07:48] <fwedew> but is it possible to change?
[07:48] <xtknight> SpOrTiF, they are not ops until a request
[07:48] <mrigns> try shift + paste
[07:48] <xtknight> SpOrTiF, just to keep privacy i guess
[07:48] <phoenix87ta> is it possible to format a drive as FAT32 from within ubuntu?
[07:48] <eric> hello, I'm trying to find a suitable chanal for tv & tuner card on ubuntu
[07:48] <xtknight> SpOrTiF, besides, you go slower than the speed limit when the cops are near you, no? :P
[07:48] <rockergurl> xtknight: were can I change the icon theme?
[07:48] <SpOrTiF> Because, on undernet network, all operator have @ on nickname
[07:48] <mrigns> phoeniyes, it is
[07:48] <SpOrTiF> Im new on this network
[07:48] <mrigns> err phoenix87ta
[07:48] <xtknight> SpOrTiF, they do hear too.  but they are called by a command i'd rather not type because i'd disturb the giants
[07:48] <kbidd> Phoenix321, yes...  look at the list of supported types in fdisk
[07:49] <xtknight> here*
[07:49] <mrigns> try gparted
[07:49] <jeduan> rockergurl didn't gnome-theme-manager work?
[07:49] <jrib> fwedew: it's not a good idea to use ctrl-v since it already does something else
[07:49] <xtknight> jrib, ctrl+shift+v doesn't do Paste in my terminal.  any clues?
[07:49] <phoenix87ta> mrigns, great, how?
[07:49] <kcusr1> so the bot wants me to get the alternate install CD, but i don't see it anywhere on the download website...is it not supported anymore?
[07:49] <mrigns> start gparted
[07:49] <phoenix87ta> mrigns, wait, was the gparted bit for me?
[07:49] <jrib> fwedew: you can change it to whatever you want in edit > keyboard shortcuts
[07:49] <mrigns> yes, it was
[07:49] <elvis32> ok it now says roots the owner of the drive
[07:49] <kbidd> xtknight, usually, clicking the middle mouse button will paste.
[07:49] <jrib> xtknight: checked edit > keyboard shortcuts?
[07:49] <phoenix87ta> does that start from console?
[07:50] <phoenix87ta> terminal, rather
[07:50] <neil__> any ideas? 3d is SO slow with beryl
[07:50] <neil__> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13392/
[07:50] <xtknight> jrib, it is <Shift><Control>V
[07:50] <xtknight> weird
[07:50] <neil__> heres an example of glxgears with / without beryl
[07:50] <mrigns> phoenix87ta: alt+f2
[07:50] <xtknight> jrib, seems to work now
[07:50] <b52laptop> apt-cache search java , give me java6  result how can i install java5
[07:50] <b52laptop> ?

[07:51] <duri> ubuntu-server : in what way different from debian ?
[07:51] <lucciola> ..what is systray????
[07:51] <rockergurl> Jeduan: I don't see a Gnome-theme-manager
[07:51] <duri> lucciola: system tray
[07:51] <mrigns> rockergurl: its that "themes" what u've already found
[07:51] <xtknight> lucciola, systray is an abbreviation for system tray (or notification area).  it's the top right of your screen where the icons appear
[07:51] <xtknight> near the clock, etc
[07:51] <jeduan> you can open that with alt-f2, or going to system->preferencies->theme
[07:51] <SpOrTiF> xtknight, you're the programmer of ubotu?
[07:51] <b52laptop> Xteven,  apt-cache give me java6
[07:51] <madmax> will fstab allow me to write to my external hard drive?
[07:51] <xtknight> no
[07:51] <b52laptop> !!!!
[07:51] <phoenix87ta> mrigns, doesn't seem to be available.  synaptic?
[07:51] <lucciola> ah! yes! undestood, tenks
[07:51] <xtknight> SpOrTiF, no
[07:51] <xtknight> that would be Seveas i think
[07:52] <SpOrTiF> oh k
[07:52] <mrigns> phoenix87ta: hmm it should be, but yes try synaptic if it isnt
[07:52] <xtknight> we all know lots of commands for ubotu though :P
[07:52] <elvis32> anyone able to help me?
[07:52] <SpOrTiF> That bot's an eggrop?
[07:52] <xtknight> i guess
[07:52] <xtknight> !ubotu
[07:52] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[07:52] <jrib> SpOrTiF: he's a supybot
[07:53] <SpOrTiF> ok, really nice !
[07:53] <xtknight> SpOrTiF, more info http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/
[07:53] <xtknight> open source
[07:53] <xtknight> lol
[07:53] <madmax> someone, please help
[07:53] <SpOrTiF> wow :p
[07:53] <SpOrTiF> I like open source project !
[07:53] <jeduan> elvis32, try doing gksu gedit /etc/fstab and then adding umask=002 in the drive
[07:53] <xtknight> madmax, sorry.  yes it will allow that
[07:53] <xtknight> madmax, did you get the line from lshw?
[07:53] <kbidd> what is the current stable version of ubuntu?
[07:53] <xtknight> ( madmax, find the drive in "sudo lshw -short -class disk" and paste the corresponding line )
[07:53] <madmax> no
[07:53] <xtknight> kbidd, ubuntu edgy eft, 6.10
[07:53] <mrigns> kbidd: 6.10
[07:54] <xtknight> kernel 2.6.17-10
[07:54] <kcusr1> i need to use text mode install, and i don't see the alternate cd on the ubuntu website...is it not supported/released anymore?
[07:54] <kbidd> thanks
[07:54] <xtknight> last long term support is Dapper, 6.06
[07:54] <phoenix87ta> mrigns, yeah, wasn't installed.  the program should be fairly self-explanatory?
[07:54] <jrib> kcusr1: it's there, just not easy to find.  Use releases.ubuntu.com
[07:54] <xtknight> kcusr1, it exists
[07:54] <kcusr1> thanks jrib
[07:54] <xtknight> google can never find it thou
[07:54] <mrigns> phoenix87ta: it should though
[07:54] <xtknight> we need a !macro to find alternate
[07:54] <ardchoille> !alternate
[07:54] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[07:54] <xtknight> can someone add cdimages.ubuntu.com (dvd) and release.ubuntu.com (alternate) to ubotu?
[07:55] <phoenix87ta> mrigns, thx much
[07:55] <xtknight> no link tho
[07:55] <mrigns> np
[07:55] <ardchoille> xtknight: I see
[07:55] <xtknight> they are difficult to find
[07:55] <xtknight> most people probably dont even know the dvds exist ;P
[07:55] <kbrooks> why, xtknight
[07:55] <MoNkUnClE> does anyone have the right to just ask a question in this channel???
[07:55] <kbrooks> wh y has canonical made the links sooo difficult to find
[07:55] <xtknight> MoNkUnClE, yes
[07:55] <jeduan> what does the dvd have in comparison to the cd?
[07:55] <xtknight> i dont know, dont ask me?
[07:55] <kbrooks> MoNkUnClE, you are asking a question. and we responded. ergo, yes
[07:56] <xtknight> jeduan, lots more packages
[07:56] <MoNkUnClE> i am having an issue installing 6.10 on same sata drive with vista and was wondering if anyone could give me a hand
[07:56] <xtknight> also some more debug options i think
[07:56] <kbrooks> MoNkUnClE, *sigh*
[07:56] <phoenix87ta> *snicker*
[07:56] <kbrooks> MoNkUnClE, you are asking a question. and we responded. ergo, yes
[07:56] <ardchoille> MoNkUnClE: It helps to list the exact issue.
[07:56] <xtknight> MoNkUnClE, what have you tried to fix it?
[07:56] <hajiko> How can I make my Update-Manager work as a user from the desktop icon?
[07:57] <jeduan> oh, so it would be a better fit if installing and internet is not always there, i guess?
[07:57] <kbrooks> MoNkUnClE, in fact, my response was a response to your question.
[07:57] <xtknight> oh quit it
[07:57] <xtknight> god
[07:57] <kbrooks> jeduan, no...
[07:57] <elvis32> jeduan were do i put that in the editor
[07:57] <revslowmo> How would a debug a crash that locks up my system
[07:57] <kbrooks> xtknight, fine.
[07:57] <colbert> how do I set permissions on a file so that it runs as root (sudo) ???
[07:57] <xtknight> colbert, do you want to execute a specific file as root?
[07:57] <jeduan> yeah, put umask=002 on the line that refers to the drive you are trying to edit
[07:57] <sorush20> how do I get information about the properties of my dvdrw and to see what max speed it will write at?
[07:58] <MoNkUnClE> well the issue is i get to prompt during bootup yet it fails somewhere in between during install have tried alternate install discs for both xubuntu and ubuntu
[07:58] <phoenix87ta> colbert, you could enable root login and then change it from the root account.  this works well for masses of files
[07:58] <elvis32> it that the auto mount line?
[07:58] <colbert> xtknight, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297676

[07:58] <hajiko> Does the wheel group need to have a certain number?
[07:58] <predaeus> revslowmo, when does the crash happen usually?
[07:58] <colbert> xtknight, I have installed that script using "sudo bash fixamsn.sh" but when I click aMSN from the menu it starts and doesn't go.. I had it working on a previous install, I just need to set the permissions on it again
[07:58] <ardchoille> phoenix87ta: Please don't recommend enabling the root account. That isn't necessary nor recommended. Sudo can do what you need.

[07:59] <xtknight> colbert, hmm i have no idea.  what permission are you setting?
[07:59] <revslowmo> predaeus: If I use the vesa video drivers it plays if I use savage it locks up
[07:59] <MoNkUnClE> sata
[07:59] <Mirthy> xtknight, you try VMWare Workstation 6.0 Beta?
[07:59] <ardchoille> phoenix87ta: It's not recommended in here.
[07:59] <xtknight> Mirthy, using that atm
[07:59] <Vanwarantio1> hi all
[07:59] <xtknight> (at the moment)
[07:59] <ardchoille> !worksforme | phoenix87ta
[07:59] <ubotu> phoenix87ta: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[07:59] <Mirthy> Any problems with it so far?
[08:00] <sorcere12> it gave me the same problem with windows .. but then .. i lowered the resoloution blam it worked
[08:00] <xtknight> Mirthy, not really.  it's pretty nice.  a bit slow until you disable Debug
[08:00] <sorcere12> but withg ubuntu live cd doesnt work for e
[08:00] <sorcere12> me
[08:00] <medi_cation> xtknight... how did you execute the install script for VMWare?
[08:00] <medi_cation> did  you sudo it?
[08:00] <xtknight> Mirthy, once it's out of beta, debug will be disbled by default
[08:00] <xtknight> medi_cation, sudo vmware-config.pl
[08:00] <Mirthy> nice.
[08:00] <medi_cation> or did you run as root?
[08:00] <Nehal> ok, i have network:0 DISABLED shown in lshw, how do i enable it?
[08:00] <xtknight> medi_cation, just sudo
[08:00] <sorcere12> i think my monitor only can go to 60 hz .. i think ..
[08:00] <phoenix87ta> ardchoille, I would hardly put using root account under the heading of common sense
[08:00] <medi_cation> thanks
[08:00] <xtknight> Nehal, sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[08:00] <Mirthy> Is it easy to disable debug, xtknight?
[08:01] <xtknight> Mirthy, yea
[08:01] <Vanwarantio1> i have a ups connected to my computer via serial cable. is there a known gui for feisty  to see what happens on the ups ?
[08:01] <medi_cation> think that's my problem... it throws an error that it can't 'power on' virtual machine
[08:01] <phoenix87ta> adichoille, perhaps that specific issue needs to be pointed out...I dunno...somewhere
[08:01] <xtknight> Mirthy, rename a couple folders i think, google it it's easy
[08:01] <neil__> how do I add an msn avatar in GAIM? I can see peoples pictures, but not add one! Not sure what to do..
[08:01] <Mirthy> Okay, cool.

[08:01] <Firefoxman> http://www.vidalia-project.net/download.php
[08:01] <Nitro> Tool to mount .cue files?
[08:01] <kbidd> neil__, that would probably be better asked in #gaim
[08:01] <predaeus> revslowmo, hm that's nasty did you try other media players like vlc or mplayer to see if it is totem's fault somehow?

[08:02] <xtknight> i can build debs but i cant put it in the repositories

[08:02] <jrib> Firefoxman: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/Candidates read the top, don't use the page
[08:02] <medi_cation> thanks again xt
[08:02] <MoNkUnClE> so what boot commandss could i run in order to see my sata drive with alternate it just freezes and does nothing at part where the partitioning starts
[08:02] <revslowmo> predaeus: Yeah I tried mplayer and it says it can find the codec
[08:02] <sorcere12> xtknight.. any suggestions
[08:02] <kashogi> hello room need help with read only file
[08:02] <xtknight> Firefoxman, on feisty at the moment? or edgy?
[08:02] <lucciola> .. how can i add an application on the systray (for example amarok) ?
[08:02] <AlucardXXVII> hey everyone, is there a help channel for beryl here
[08:02] <Firefoxman> !livecd > sorcere12
[08:02] <Firefoxman> xtknight: Fiesty.
[08:02] <Vanwarantio1> i have a ups connected to my computer via serial cable. is there a gui for feisty  to see what happens on the ups ? (sorry for poor english)
[08:02] <xtknight> sorcere12, sorry could you repeat your question
[08:02] <Nehal> xtknight: No such file or directory
[08:02] <Nehal> it is a wireless device btw
[08:03] <Nitro> Mounting tool for .cue files?
[08:03] <sorcere12> yeah i have a live cd
[08:03] <xtknight> Firefoxman, were you able to get the program running properly?
[08:03] <sorcere12> thats what i use
[08:03] <revslowmo> preaction:  What is the name of the pkg that the codec is in? I am running 7.04
[08:03] <mc44> AlucardXXVII: #ubuntu-effects
[08:03] <AlucardXXVII> thanks mc44
[08:03] <sorcere12> but my stupid old monitor flickers
[08:03] <xtknight> Nehal, pastebin `sudo lshw -class network` please
[08:03] <jeduan> sorcere12 you could try doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh on a terminal so you can set the sync
[08:03] <sorcere12> when it passes the menu and into the desktop gnome
[08:03] <Firefoxman> xtknight: No, I seem to have trouble getting Qt4.1 installed...
[08:03] <xtknight> sorcere12, it's probably a CRT problem if it's flickering tons.  if it's ujst a slight flicker than increase the refresh rate
[08:03] <sorcere12> whoa
[08:03] <sorcere12> how do i do that
[08:03] <sorcere12> iama  newbie ..
[08:03] <sorcere12> i can do that on a live cd?
[08:03] <conceited> LjL are you around?
[08:04] <Vanwarantio1> i have a ups connected to my computer via serial cable. is there a known gui for feisty  to see what happens on the ups ? (sorry for poor english)
[08:04] <LjL> sort of
[08:04] <jetscreamer> sorcere12: pass xvrefresh and xhrefresh maybe
[08:04] <lucciola> .. how can i add an application on the systray (for example amarok) ?
[08:04] <sorcere12> idont see a terminal or command line only a menu when the cd boots
[08:04] <predaeus> revslowmo, no idea sorry. since 7.04 is still beta you could also ask in #ubuntu+1 that is the channel for 7.04 maybe they know of such a driver or totem bug.
[08:04] <Nehal> xtknight: i can't get it to you, what with my network not working and all :)  ... are there any specific lines you need?
[08:04] <Firefoxman> /ubotu ups
[08:04] <conceited> LjL, do you use conky ?
[08:04] <jetscreamer> when booting
[08:04] <xtknight> Nehal, driver= ?
[08:04] <LjL> conceited: nope
[08:04] <revslowmo> predaeus: Ok
[08:04] <conceited> sheet

[08:04] <kashogi> anyone please help
[08:04] <Firefoxman> !chat
[08:04] <jetscreamer> sorcere12: these http://www.kanotix.com/FAQ-myfaq-yes-id_cat-63.html#q245

[08:04] <Mirthy> xtknight, do I get the .rpm or the .tar file?
[08:04] <xtknight> Nehal, also" logical name" (interface name)...ethX
[08:05] <xtknight> Mirthy, tar
[08:05] <ubuntu_> o
[08:05] <Mirthy> OKay.
[08:05] <conceited> !conky install
[08:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about conky install - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:05] <conceited> !conky
[08:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about conky - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:05] <conceited> hmm
[08:05] <hajiko> Howcome I cannot execute the synaptic from the contextual menu?
[08:05] <Firefoxman> !rpm > Mirthy
[08:05] <Nehal> xtknight: there is no driver line, there is a product line... logical name= eth1  ... *-network:1 DISABLED
[08:05] <xtknight> hajiko, which menu?
[08:05] <ubuntu_> is this the same thing as gaim? ami in the same room if i were using gaim
[08:05] <elvis32> jeduan can u explain what i got to do in a pm please
[08:05] <mc44> kbidd: there should be a list of m5dums along with all the iso links at the bottom of the page
[08:05] <xtknight> Nehal, sudo ifconfig eth1 up
[08:05] <predaeus> revslowmo, you could also look at the end of /var/log/kern.log to see if the kernel logged some serious errror that would freeze the whole machine.
[08:05] <hajiko> gnome's system administration menu xtknight
[08:05] <xtknight> Nehal, also, is it wired or wireless ethernet?
[08:05] <Firefoxman> hajiko: It is at the bottom of the applications menue.
[08:05] <hajiko> yah
[08:05] <kbidd> kashogi, by default, you can't write to an NTFS partition, but you should be able to read from it... if you mounted it as root, it is possible you forgot to give all users permission to read from the partition... try copying the files as root.
[08:05] <Nehal> xtknight wireless
[08:06] <hajiko> but it says run as root.
[08:06] <xtknight> that's actualyl a simplified synaptic
[08:06] <Mirthy> Thanks for that Firefoxman, hehe
[08:06] <Firefoxman> hajiko: Just use the one under applications
[08:06] <Nehal> BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller
[08:06] <Firefoxman> Mirthy: np.
[08:06] <xtknight> hajiko,  system->admin->synaptic  , synaptic must be run as root
[08:06] <hajiko> Cant it sudo?!
[08:06] <revslowmo> predaeus: k
[08:06] <xtknight> Nehal, hmm..i dont know about that.
[08:06] <xtknight> !wireless | Nehal
[08:06] <ubotu> Nehal: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:06] <kbidd> mc44, maybe im at the wrong download page, cuz i dont see it... im using http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[08:06] <ardchoille> !gksudo | hajiko
[08:06] <ubotu> hajiko: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>
[08:06] <guest14564564> Hey
[08:06] <Nehal> driver=bcm43xx  ... there it is
[08:06] <guest14564564> Im just takin a look
[08:06] <xtknight> hajiko, i guess i dont understand the problem
[08:06] <guest14564564> Nice IRc client
[08:06] <jetscreamer> !tell me -about root
[08:07] <xtknight> Nehal, so what happens with "sudo ifconfig eth1 up" ?

[08:07] <lubor> hi, is there anybody experienced with GPRS connection via bluetooth?
[08:07] <jetscreamer> !tell jetscreamer -about root
[08:07] <Mirthy> xtknight, will I have to have my XP partition "mounted" in order for it to work, BTW?
[08:07] <kashogi> i do sudo  cp blah ... but get error read only file
[08:07] <Mirthy> VMWare, that is.
[08:07] <Firefoxman> !root > jetscreamer
[08:07] <revslowmo> predaeus: Nothing in kernel.0
[08:07] <mrigns> !root | jetscreamer
[08:07] <ubotu> jetscreamer: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:07] <kashogi> i am using live ubuntu
[08:07] <jetscreamer> uh
[08:07] <kashogi> cd
[08:07] <mc44> kbidd: http://releases.ubuntu.com/edgy/MD5SUMS
[08:07] <rNIUS> hi!
[08:07] <jetscreamer> i was testing the bot, not the factoid, but thanks
[08:08] <xtknight> Firefoxman, sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev &&  ./configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt4
[08:08] <Firefoxman> Thanks
[08:08] <Firefoxman> xtknight: Thanks!
[08:08] <MoNkUnClE> kbrooks any ideas,xtknight any ideas,anyone please help me please
[08:08] <xtknight> Mirthy, no
[08:08] <kbidd> kashogi, are you sure you have the partition mounted... (you probably already know this, but type "mount" with no options to view a list of currently mounted partitions, and what type they are mounted as)
[08:08] <xtknight> Mirthy, you install XP again in a virtualized environment
[08:08] <Mirthy> Ahhh.
[08:08] <xtknight> Mirthy, put in the cd, just like a new pc
[08:08] <predaeus> revslowmo, is there no file called kern.log in /var/log  ?
[08:09] <Mirthy> Okay, that's even better then!
[08:09] <xtknight> Mirthy, you can boot your existing install but it is *DANGEROUS*
[08:09] <bullgard4> What forum is best suited to discuss Ekiga problems?
[08:09] <Mirthy> Don't want to take any risks xtknight, haha.
[08:09] <kashogi> i can see the files i actually managed to transfer one the file through ftp
[08:09] <sorcere12> jeduan hey man .. so i press what to bring up terminal and then what commands to type in to get that running
[08:09] <xtknight> MoNkUnClE, sorry can't remember your problem
[08:09] <ardchoille> MoNkUnClE: Help with what?
[08:09] <MoNkUnClE> xtknight sta install
[08:09] <kbrooks> xtknight, whats w/ the danger?
[08:09] <MoNkUnClE> sata
[08:09] <xtknight> kbrooks, allowing a vitrualized program access to a physical partition
[08:09] <hmm> Woho, linux at last.... :))
[08:09] <revslowmo> predaeus: Sorry my bad did read kern.log
[08:10] <MoNkUnClE> can't install on same disc with vista
[08:10] <MoNkUnClE> it's a sata disc
[08:10] <hamburglar> i need some help, x windows wont start up, after i tried to update graphics drivers to fglrx
[08:10] <kbrooks> xtknight, i saiid, "what's with ...", not "what's ...".
[08:10] <MoNkUnClE> one disc two partitions
[08:10] <xtknight> kbrooks, what?
[08:10] <revslowmo> predaeus:  Think I should file a bug under totem?
[08:10] <jeduan> on the terminal type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:10] <kbrooks> xtknight, as in, why is it dangerous?
[08:10] <revslowmo> predaeus: or the video driver
[08:10] <sorcere12> and then what it shoudl work lol
[08:10] <bulmer> hamburglar: i hope you save a copy for backup, use the backup now to recover
[08:10] <sorcere12> i dunno how linux works iam really new
[08:10] <predaeus> revslowmo, is it totally empty? you would have to scroll up a bit from the bottom because your last boot will be logged there aswell.
[08:11] <mc44> hamburglar: what video card do you have?
[08:11] <Oritemis> bulmer, You helped me a lot. Thank you!
[08:11] <jimmio> I have a question. I'm using Beryl window manager and everytime I press the shift button the window flashes, is there a way to remove it?
[08:11] <bulmer> Oritemis: you're welcome
[08:11] <xtknight> kbrooks, well for one, you are booting an existing install.  it has to redetect all your hardware, possibly removing drivers you had on there.  it'll undoubtedly screw the install you have on that disk.  plus, if vmware crashes, the physical partition can be more easily damaged
[08:11] <revslowmo> predaeus: Oh its not empty that last thing before the reboot it my wireless interface flapping nothing about segv or oops
[08:11] <MoNkUnClE> ardchoille it's an issue i am having installing 6.10 on same sata drive with vista,it stalls during install and alternate does the same i don't think it sees the drive or blank partition
[08:12] <jimmio> I have a question. I'm using Beryl window manager and everytime I press the shift button the window flashes, is there a way to remove it?
[08:12] <mc44> !repeat | jimmio
[08:12] <ubotu> jimmio: 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
[08:12] <hamburglar> there was an /etc/X11/xorg.conf~, which i renamed to xorg.conf, but x windows still wont start, is there another backup you're referring to?
[08:12] <biosword> ciao
[08:12] <Nitro> Nobody? >.>
[08:12] <predaeus> revslowmo, ah.

[08:12] <nickk> hey, i just installed a new widescreen monitor.. and i set the correct settings in NVidia XServer conf.. and apply it to the /X11/xorg.conf file.. but when i restart the pc the resolution returns to default.. can anyone point me in the right direction
[08:12] <sorush20> how do I get information about the properties of my dvdrw and to see what max speed it will write at?
[08:12] <mc44> hamburglar: what video card are you using?
[08:13] <revslowmo> predaeus: I wanna say its the video driver cause changing the video driver fixes the problem
[08:13] <predaeus> revslowmo, if it does not happen with another driver than it is very likely the driver that causes this.
[08:13] <predaeus> yup
[08:13] <MoNkUnClE> xtknight installing 6.10 on same sata drive with vista,it stalls during install and alternate does the same i don't think it sees the drive or blank partition any ideas
[08:13] <hamburglar> ati 9000 mobile
[08:13] <revslowmo> predaeus: But without any debug info this is going to suck to debug
[08:13] <xtknight> MoNkUnClE, not really.  where does it stall?
[08:13] <valvavas> #ubuntu-br
[08:14] <xtknight> valvavas, /join #ubuntu-br
[08:14] <hamburglar> i followed the 6.10 instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[08:14] <hamburglar> although i'm using 7.04 beta
[08:14] <Nehal> xtknight: i think i have to follow the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[08:14] <Nehal> doesn't look like fun :(
[08:14] <mc44> hamburglar: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and choose the ati driver
[08:14] <xtknight> Nehal, nope :O
[08:14] <MoNkUnClE> xtknight at a ram file system prompt or something like that like i see the file directories but not sure where to go from there i tried sudo fdisk sudo gparted and so on
[08:14] <xtknight> Nehal, (doesnt sound fun)
[08:14] <dazjorz> Hi
[08:15] <nickk> hey.. im running Ubuntu 6.10 and my resolution keeps resetting on restart... anyone know what i could do?
[08:15] <xtknight>  Nehal i got through them though
[08:15] <xtknight> MoNkUnClE, ohh... (initramfs)?
[08:15] <joecool234> hello...I need help with sharing folders and my printer from Ubuntu 6.10 on a windows network
[08:15] <joecool234> is this the right room?
[08:15] <MoNkUnClE> xtknight yeah
[08:15] <xtknight> MoNkUnClE, that sucks.  i have no idea
[08:15] <lufis>  I selected some files to delete on my desktop, clicked in white-space (and thereby unknowingly unselecting them), hit "delete" (real delete, not trash) and POOF! my desktop directory is gone. WTF!
[08:15] <MoNkUnClE> ok thx
[08:15] <Nitro> I'm sorry I'm bugging, but are there nobody which knows of a gui mount tool to mount .cue, .iso etc?
[08:15] <xtknight> on google "initramfs prompt ubuntu" i guess
[08:15] <predaeus> revslowmo, what gfx card do you have again? sorry I forgot and it scrolled out of history
[08:15] <cables> In the Distribution Upgrade in Feisty, it prints the download speed in kb/s... shouldn't it be kB/s? Either that or it's just going REALLY slow.
[08:15] <dazjorz> I'm not sure what's going wrong, but I'd like to type an e with two dots on it, I used to be able to use shift+' e, but now that produces "e. I think it's because the keyboard is configured as dutch and I need to configure it to english. Is there any way to do this?
[08:16] <xtknight> kb/s is kilobytes per second still
[08:16] <xtknight> until SI tried to screw everything up

[08:16] <cables> joecool234, you need to register, then you can.
[08:16] <xtknight> cables, kbits usually.  nobody uses it much
[08:16] <joecool234> ok, coo
[08:16] <xtknight> cables, if you see kb/s in a program, it's kilobytes per second almost undoubtedly.

[08:17] <Factory> kootaphor: apt-get remove  OR  aptitude remove
[08:17] <Bill_Gate> How can I start ubuntu to console with nothing loaded as possible (kernel modules)
[08:17] <Bill_Gate> I need to delete a file.
[08:17] <Factory> kootaphor, Dunno about just removing the binarys. Probably not a good idea.
[08:17] <xtknight> kootaphor, it depends on the program.  but you can use 'checkinstall' to make a debian package for easy removal sometimes.  i doubt it, with hamachi, though.  check the README
[08:18] <xtknight> Factory, hamachi has no deb
[08:18] <xtknight> so apt-get cant do it
[08:18] <Journeyman> when my master volume is ajusted it doesn't ajust any of the sound
[08:18] <jrib> Bill_Gate: reboot and choose "recovery mode" from the grub menu?
[08:18] <FirstStrike> is there anyway to get an external USB cd/dvd drive to be recognized as bootable? my bios sees it. i set it as the first bootable device..stick the ubuntu cd in the drive and..it still doesn't boot from the disk.
[08:18] <Factory> xtknight, ah, sorry.
[08:18] <Bill_Gate> jrib: reboot hanging as well.
[08:18] <kootaphor> right, I tried the remove then realize I must have done a fancy-fancy tar/make/ type install.
[08:18] <Journeyman> I can adjust the PCM volume and it will go up and down as I set it
[08:18] <jrib> Bill_Gate: boot a live cd, mount the partition, and delete your file
[08:18] <joecool234> ok
[08:18] <joecool234> i think im registered
[08:19] <Bill_Gate> jrib: ARG!!! cant do that either. livecd hangs the machine too. :-(

[08:29] <cables> urbs, I don't see why it should be slower, unless you enable new features like desktop effects.
[08:29] <mc44> hamburglar: the ati driver doesnt do 3d acceleration
[08:29] <grndslm> jacksonL:  there is an xgamma command, i believe...
[08:29] <jetscreamer> ati driver does 3d for 'some' ati cards
[08:29] <cables> urbs, you could try Xubuntu, it's way faster on old systems, and it's officially supported.
[08:29] <Bill_Gate> YES!!!
[08:29] <hamburglar> gotcha, so, what are my options?
[08:29] <Bill_Gate> At the least the stupid program made a backup of my kernel!!!!!!!!!
[08:29] <Bill_Gate> YES
[08:29] <hamburglar> try the fglrx drivers again?
[08:30] <jetscreamer> it's not a backup
[08:30] <mc44> hamburglar: hope ati comes out with better drivers
[08:30] <jetscreamer> it's the same one
[08:30] <predaeus> untouch, probably you could do something like sudo /etc/init.d/alsa restart there is other alsa*** scripts there aswell. But not sure it this would do it.
[08:30] <jetscreamer> edit menu.lst bill
[08:30] <mc44> Bill_Gate: please stop ranting

[08:35] <Puppy> I've got a question about screen resolution: how can I get my screen res. above 1024x768. I've got my drivers for my graphics card downloaded and installed. Help?
[08:35] <cables> I got a prompt to do a dist-upgrade today in Feisty beta.
[08:35] <ardchoille> cables: Upgrades the kernel for one thing.
[08:36] <cables> ardchoille, I've had kernel upgrades that don't require a dist-upgrade
[08:36] <cables> ardchoille, is it that it can remove/add new packages instead of just upgrading to new versions of packages?
[08:36] <Alonea> Puppy: you can add the resolutions to xorg.conf (if its the same for ubuntu. should be. (I am on kubuntu))
[08:36] <neil__> any1 know a free 3d linux game I can test my 3d acceleration with?
[08:36] <neil__> preferably easy / quick to install
[08:36] <sogen> j #ubuntu-pl
[08:37] <kbrooks> neil__, frozen-bubble, tuxracer
[08:37] <Puppy> Alonea: how do i do that? What's involved?
[08:37] <cables> neil__, can't you test it witht glxgears?
[08:37] <Alonea> neil__: there is that tux racer and then the open GL screensavers yo can test too
[08:37] <ardchoille> cables: My Ubuntu must be different then.
[08:37] <lucifiel> xtknight: oh btw, do you happen to know any utility program that'll help to import bookmarks and other profile data(from firefox)? 'cos i actually want to add in to my current profile, not overwrite the profile folder.
[08:37] <cables> ardchoille, weird...
[08:37] <neil__> cool, is tux racer in the repos?
[08:37] <grndslm> of course
[08:37] <[WaZ] > cables: no, ubuntu uses ubuntu-desktop metapackage for that
[08:37] <SlimeyPete> neil__: it's called something different these days though
[08:37] <[WaZ] > (installing new packages/software)
[08:37] <SlimeyPete> neil__: it's called "planetpengiun-racer"
[08:37] <cables> [WaZ] , ok, so what does upgrading do?
[08:37] <xtknight> lucifiel, not sure off the top of my head.  although in the next Ubuntu they have a 'merge documents&settings' feature which may allow the importing of some user settings including firefox
[08:37] <Alonea> Puppy: you just add whatever res you want like this "1440x900"  to a line in xorg.conf. At least thats all I ever had to do
[08:37] <grndslm> neil__:  just aptitude search tux
[08:38] <neil__> SlimeyPete: thanks :)
[08:38] <Puppy> Thanks Alonea!
[08:38] <lucifiel> xtknight: bahhh lol
[08:38] <[WaZ] > cables: i think dist-upgrade also upgrades system files
[08:38] <cables> [WaZ] , is that for modifying things that aren't in the metapackage?
[08:38] <xtknight> lucifiel, there is lots of helpful info regarding that on the forums, especially about sharing Firefox profiles between Windows and Linux
[08:38] <grndslm> supertuxkart
[08:38] <[WaZ] > cables: not sure tho, i guess if dist-upgrade: reboot needed
[08:39] <cables> ok...
[08:39] <[WaZ] > cables: well if dist-upgrade: reboot possibly needed
[08:39] <cables> ok
[08:39] <Alonea> Puppy: the file is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and it will be in the Screen section, Display subsection
[08:39] <Alonea> Puppy: and you will need to edit the file as root.
[08:39] <[WaZ] > cables: makes sense for servers at least, to make the difference
[08:39] <cables> ok

[08:41] <ALEX319> no i can use wine
[08:41] <[WaZ] > cables: I was wrong: http://www.mepis.org/docs/en/index.php/Upgrade_vs._dist-upgrade
[08:41] <cables> SlimeyPete, I think WOW works in wine
[08:41] <ALEX319> thats what they say
[08:41] <cables> [WaZ] , thanks
[08:41] <[WaZ] > cables: you were right apparently
[08:41] <SlimeyPete> cables: does it? oh right
[08:41] <xtknight> lucifiel, the u+w granted you permission, right?
[08:41] <cables> ALEX319, for wine support, go to #winehq
[08:41] <ALEX319> do u have an aim we can talk in
[08:41] <ALEX319> and can help me
[08:41] <cables> ALEX319, no.
[08:41] <ALEX319> ..
[08:41] <lucifiel> xtknight: yes, right...
[08:41] <cables> ALEX319, like I said, go to #winehq
[08:42] <xtknight> what's the different between IRC and AIM anyhow
[08:42] <ALEX319> i dont understand there commands
[08:42] <ALEX319> im very nooby
[08:42] <[WaZ] > xtknight: how did it go?
[08:42] <xtknight> [WaZ] , hrm how did what go ? :P
[08:42] <ALEX319> irc is loaded with people
[08:42] <[WaZ] > irc is multiplayer Aim
[08:42] <[WaZ] > xtknight: upgrade/beryl
[08:42] <ALEX319> aim is faster and easier to communteica
[08:42] <xtknight> [WaZ] , i have bad memory
[08:42] <cables> ALEX319, go to http://appdb.winehq.org and search for WOW
[08:42] <xtknight> [WaZ] , you'll have to describe the whole situation.  i havent installed any beryl here though
[08:42] <lunaz> dumb ? of the day: if i install all the apps i want as user1 (created @ install), then make a new limited user2 to do daily stuff, can he use the software user1 installed? how do i set that up? i'm use to windows & only one user :P
[08:43] <Alonea> ALEX319: you get used to it. You just have to be patient and have you read all of the roubleshooting pages for WOW under the wine site?
[08:43] <[WaZ] > xtknight: someone with the same nick did then
[08:43] <ALEX319> no im a noob
[08:43] <cables> ALEX319, you can private chat on IRC too, but that's not what you need right now. Go to #winehq for help with Wine.
[08:43] <[WaZ] > xtknight: well was trying last night
[08:43] <xtknight> [WaZ] , i havent installed Beryl, recently, at least
[08:43] <xtknight> [WaZ] , ahh i said iwas going to
[08:43] <ALEX319> i dont understand shit i bdont even know if i have 3d drivers set up
[08:43] <xtknight> i haven't gotten around to it
[08:43] <cables> !ohmy | ALEX319
[08:43] <ubotu> ALEX319: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:43] <ALEX319> ok
[08:43] <xtknight> [WaZ] ,  i said i was going to 'give it another whirl'?  one of these days ;)
[08:43] <ALEX319> im sry
[08:43] <xet7> How can I recreate /etc/mysql directory, which I deleted accidentally? Reinstall mysql?
[08:43] <xtknight> probably nto today
[08:43] <cables> ALEX319, like I said, go to #winehq
[08:43] <sproingie> ALEX319: glxinfo | grep direct
[08:43] <[WaZ] > xtknight: I have helpaed an xtknight89 last night, wasn't you right?
[08:44] <ALEX319> i dont understand there stiff
[08:44] <sproingie> ALEX319: that'll tell you if you have 3d set up or not
[08:44] <xtknight> [WaZ] , 89?  must not have been
[08:44] <ALEX319> its to complicataed
[08:44] <xtknight> [WaZ] , i never use that nickname
[08:44] <cables> ALEX319, go to the #winehq channel!
[08:44] <xtknight> [WaZ] , i would be xtknight, xtknight_, or xtknight__ :
[08:44] <[WaZ] > xtknight: okay, wasn't you then, sorry bout the confusion
[08:44] <Tom_Ness> does anyone know how come i have 2 power / battery monitors ?
[08:44] <ALEX319> oh
[08:44] <ALEX319> ok
[08:44] <xtknight> ahh hehe
[08:44] <elvis32> jeduan has disappeared and i need help mounting an external drive can someone pm me please
[08:44] <ALEX319> wine hq?
[08:44] <ALEX319> ok
[08:44] <Alonea> ALEX319: dear, how long have you had linux? is it wine you dont understand or linux?
[08:44] <xtknight> odd
[08:44] <ALEX319> thanks guys
[08:44] <Mirthy> xtknight:  Im installing VMware 6 now, and it's asking me to size the Virtual Disk (default 8GB).  Is this size just dedicated to JUST the Virtual Machine?
[08:44] <ALEX319> well i had linux for  days
[08:44] <ALEX319> 2
[08:44] <[WaZ] > Mirthy: yes
[08:45] <raul> hi
[08:45] <Mirthy> Hrm...
[08:45] <xtknight> Mirthy, yea
[08:45] <xtknight> Mirthy, vmware 6 WORKstation?
[08:45] <ALEX319> i have been pampered on windows all my life
[08:45] <cables> ALEX319, please register with NickServ. To do this, type /msg NickServ REGISTER passwordyouwant
[08:45] <StoneNote> Mirthy, yes.  but you get the choice to allocate it now or as needed. I suggest as needed unless there is a good reason to preallocate it all now
[08:45] <[WaZ] > Mirthy: keep in mind your installing a whole OS
[08:45] <Journeyman> ALEX319, define pampered
[08:45] <Alonea> ALEX319: ah, no wonder. linux has a bit of a learning curve. for one, you MUST get used to the terminal.
[08:45] <Mirthy> Yeah
[08:45] <xtknight> Mirthy, then you can use shared folders to get more space for some stuff.  but 8GIG for OS install/ etc.  shared folders are via SMB
[08:45] <Journeyman> I feel pampered on linux
[08:45] <Mirthy> Yeah, this is Workstation
[08:45] <cables> ALEX319, that'll let you private message people.
[08:45] <Tom_Ness> does anyone know how come i have 2 power / battery monitors on my gnome panel ?
[08:45] <Journeyman> Alonea, you dont HAVE to use the terminal
[08:45] <xtknight> Mirthy, you can install programs to SMB probably
[08:45] <sparr`> hi
[08:45] <Wazm> Hello
[08:46] <ALEX319> how do u private message
[08:46] <Wazm> tell me
[08:46] <ALEX319> ?
[08:46] <xtknight> Mirthy, although case sensitivity/linux filesystems makes it tricky.  i recommend allocating 20-30 gig for an OS
[08:46] <cables> ALEX319, first do the register thing
[08:46] <sparr`> private
[08:46] <lunaz> i want my weekend back. :(
[08:46] <ALEX319> i did
[08:46] <xtknight> Mirthy, i have my XP64 with 20 gigs.  Word 2003 and all, it's pretty much full
[08:46] <Journeyman> ALEX319, linux is just different, not really harder
[08:46] <ALEX319> ok
[08:46] <ALEX319> i like linux alot
[08:46] <Mirthy> damn, lol
[08:46] <ALEX319> its realy cool
[08:46] <Alonea> Journeyman: but most help you get will tell you to do commands in the terminal and shying away from it isn't the way to go
[08:46] <Mirthy> I only have an 80gig laptop drive.
[08:46] <Mirthy> So, if I choose "Allocate All Disk Space", it uses whatever space I have leftover on my whole drive?
[08:46] <xtknight> Mirthy, i think you can expand the VM later but it's tricky
[08:46] <ALEX319> but its kinda hard switch for me
[08:46] <xtknight> Mirthy, give it 15 gigs.
[08:46] <Journeyman> Alonea, sure
[08:46] <shmeelAway> hi, i'm on a laptop but want to use a external monitor, but the only way i can get to the external is by restarting, the key fnf6 won't work. can anyone helP?
[08:46] <xtknight> Mirthy, allocate all space may mean fill it all with NULs for quick writing
[08:47] <[WaZ] > Mirthy: no
[08:47] <xtknight> not allocate every byte on your HD
[08:47] <Mirthy> Oh
[08:47] <Tom_Ness> at least on linux, if something goes wrong, there's usually a reason, and a way to debug it
[08:47] <ALEX319> ok
[08:47] <Mirthy> So it'd be bad to do that?
[08:47] <[WaZ] > Mirthy: it will allocated the 8GB directly
[08:47] <Mirthy> Oh.
[08:47] <Tom_Ness> on windows sometimes thing *just_dont_work*
[08:47] <ALEX319> wwlell thanks guys
[08:47] <xtknight> not bad
[08:47] <cables> ALEX319, I'm not sure how to do it from PJIRC with clicking, but you can do /msg WHO-YOU-WANT-TO-CHAT-WITH MESSAGE and it should open up a new tab when they send a message back to you.
[08:47] <Journeyman> Tom_Ness, and a way of fixing it without a reinstall :)
[08:47] <xtknight> i did it
[08:47] <xtknight> reducing into 2 G fragments reduces fragmentation
[08:47] <StoneNote> xtknight, I've had good experience with 10gb for the appliances. though I tend to use a full 252mb for memory rather than the 160mb default
[08:47] <xtknight> i should have done that...
[08:47] <Tom_Ness> indeed
[08:47] <Mirthy> I only have 18 gigls left on my Ubuntu partition :(
[08:47] <[WaZ] > Mirthy: makes sure you don't run out of disk space without VM knowing it
[08:47] <Mirthy> Ohz.
[08:47] <xtknight> i use XFS filesystem for big VMs
[08:47] <xtknight> less frags than ext3
[08:47] <elvis32> jeduan has disappeared and i need help mounting an external drive can someone pm me please (i would talk to you in tis window but i cant follow it)
[08:48] <xtknight> plus xfs_fsr (a defrag tool) is available
[08:48] <nexeus> ALEX319,  persist in using linux at least for a week little by little you will understand
[08:48] <xtknight> and it comes in handy
[08:48] <ALEX319> ok
[08:48] <ALEX319> i will
[08:48] <Tom_Ness> and support who dont ask questions like "is it plugged in", yes. "is it switched on", yes. "are you sure", yes. "then i dont now"
[08:48] <xtknight> StoneNote, i use 768m for my VMs hehe
[08:48] <ALEX319> now how do i go to that winehq channel
[08:48] <raul> i have a problem, i've a wireless card that work ok when I run the live version of ubuntu, but it doesn't work if I use the installed version. Someone knows a command to recognyse automatically the hardware?
[08:48] <xtknight> ALEX319, /join ##winehq
[08:48] <Tom_Ness> single "#" ?
[08:48] <cables> xtknight, there's only one #
[08:48] <linkmaster> join #poo
[08:48] <linkmaster> #poop
[08:48] <linkmaster> join #poop
[08:48] <[WaZ] > raul: you have to be more specific, IE: what wifi card are you using
[08:48] <linkmaster> =D
[08:48] <deepsa> raul, wtf. you still not got it working
[08:49] <StoneNote> xtknight, VMware tends to page a lot when you use above 252mb.  have you studied how that effects your appliances performance?
[08:49] <Tom_Ness> does anyone know how come i have 2 power / battery monitors on my gnome panel ?
[08:49] <cables> He's still not in #winehq... maybe sensory overload? :)
[08:49] <cables> xtknight, have you tried virtualbox? I found it a lot easier to set up... and it's free.
[08:49] <xtknight> StoneNote, more ram seems to postively affect it
[08:49] <xtknight> ahh winehq is official?
[08:49] <elvis32> no one help me?
[08:49] <xtknight> the channel
[08:50] <ALEX319> no one
[08:50] <raul> the wifi card is a smc with a atheros chipset
[08:50] <xtknight> nevermind
[08:50] <[WaZ] > xtknight: yes
[08:50] <StoneNote> xtknight, it could be that I'm using the free version.
[08:50] <xtknight> cables, i have not tried it.  it didnt not work on 64bit
[08:50] <Alonea> ALEX319: you can try clicking on the link #winehq or type in /join #winehq
[08:50] <xtknight> cables, thou now that i have a 32bit host i'll give it a shot.  i'd have to use xp32 though as a guest, which seems slower than xp64 for me
[08:50] <cables> xtknight, ok. It's nice though :)
[08:50] <mbd> hi! i cant get 3d acceleration working, info at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13397/ , please help!
[08:50] <xtknight> StoneNote, nope
[08:50] <xtknight> StoneNote, no difference there
[08:50] <baktaah> Where is the Icon folder, I want to swap 2 icons, in a theme?
[08:51] <cables> xtknight, it's really nice for 32-bit stuff. Easy UI, free, some people say it's faster than vmware
[08:51] <xtknight> StoneNote, it shouldn't matter.  VMs are pretty intensive sometimes that's all
[08:51] <raul> the wifi card works porperly with the live version of edgy
[08:51] <xtknight> cables, well interesting
[08:51] <StoneNote> xtknight, true
[08:51] <nexeus> ALEX319, /join #winehq
[08:51] <xtknight> opensouce version of virtualbox?
[08:51] <xtknight> !virtualbox
[08:51] <cables> StoneNote, remember you need enough RAM for 2 OS's at the same time.
[08:51] <ubotu> VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[08:51] <ALEX319> hey cables
[08:51] <cables> xtknight, the open source version isn't great.
[08:51] <xtknight> oh
[08:51] <ALEX319> how do i do it again?
[08:51] <[WaZ] > mbd: XGL doesn't work on dual screen with screens higher then 1024x768
[08:51] <ALEX319> message
[08:51] <xtknight> is there a $0/closed source version
[08:51] <xtknight> or do i have to pay $$
[08:51] <cables> xtknight, but the closed version is free
[08:51] <cables> xtknight, yep
[08:51] <xtknight> k cool
[08:51] <ALEX319> can u come to channel winehq
[08:51] <ALEX319> cables

[08:52] <cables> ALEX319, but you're not...
[08:52] <psycho78> is there anyway to change to look of the login where it's loading gnome, the desktop, and nautilus?
[08:52] <[WaZ] > mdb: well beryl doesn't work at least
[08:52] <cables> NessieLiberation, on your notification area or the other parts of the panel?
[08:52] <StoneNote> cables, yeah I know.  that's why depending on which appliances I open, I can have four or just one open.  some use more resources than others
[08:52] <xtknight> i'll see if i can get it to run on Feisty
[08:52] <ALEX319> no ur not
[08:52] <cables> ALEX319, #winehq
[08:52] <[WaZ] > mbd: well beryl doesn't work at least
[08:52] <NessieLiberation> cables : yes, notification area

[08:52] <baktaah> Where is the Icon folder, I want to swap 2 icons, in a theme?
[08:52] <cables> baktaah, ~/.icons or /usr/share/icons

[08:53] <Journeyman> erm
[08:53] <NessieLiberation> cables : the preference windows are caled: "Battery Charge Monitor Preferences" and "Power Management Preferences"
[08:53] <[WaZ] > mbd: your setup doesn't work without? lemme check
[08:53] <cables> psycho78, System>Preferences>Themes
[08:53] <cables> NessieLiberation, you can remove them and use the gnome-panel ones.
[08:54] <Journeyman> cables, he said login screen not gnome
[08:54] <[WaZ] > mbd: you should uncomment the Extensions section
[08:54] <xtknight> cables, installed on Feisty with .run file. giving it a shot
[08:54] <cables> xtknight, they have a .deb!
[08:54] <xtknight> cables, edgy/dapper not feisty
[08:54] <[WaZ] > mdb: and disable AIGLX
[08:54] <cables> Journeyman, he also said nautilus
[08:54] <xtknight> different libc
[08:54] <mbd> [WaZ] , its not beryl not working.. its 3d in general
[08:54] <cables> xtknight, ah.
[08:54] <IDislikeIdentify> is there some sort of help channel for this forum?
[08:54] <mbd> [WaZ] , i dont have aiglx, or xgl, just standard X
[08:54] <cables> IDislikeIdentify, you mean an irc help channel?
[08:54] <IDislikeIdentify> well i want to get into the python channel

[08:56] <Sarthor> Hi, Using ubuntu, Just newuser, my squid is not working in transparent mode for my clients, port 80 has been redirected to 8080, Any Help?
[08:56] <IDislikeIdentify> i appreciate your help, u ubuntu guys are always on the ball
[08:56] <cables> psycho78, System>Administration>Login Window. Also check out gnome-look.org for more themes.
[08:56] <[WaZ] > mbd: you haven't run sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv
[08:57] <NessieLiberation> cables : the 2 notifications are artefacts from upgrading from breezy to edgy [via dapper of course]  ?
[08:57] <yoda> hi
[08:57] <psycho78> cables: I'm able to change to login theme n/p. But it's the popup after I login that I would like to change. The brown ubuntu box that shows gnome loading and desktop and nautilus.
[08:57] <yoda> I have a wifi called eth1 and I want to share it to eth0, how can I make it easily?
[08:57] <raul> does someone know a command to install automatically the new hardware installed, like the installation do?
[08:58] <mbd> [WaZ] , no, but this is based on a nvidia config based of a known working ati config (silly me not doing backups)
[08:58] <xtknight> how do i add user Bob to group Asdf?
[08:58] <[WaZ] > mdb: you should also uncomment Disable Composite and add AIGLX off
[08:58] <mbd> [WaZ] , but it was for a older version
[08:58] <cables> psycho78, there used to be a gui thing to do it, no it's somewhere in gconf. look around in gconf-editor (alt-f2, then gconf-editor)
[08:58] <MrDevil> I have a problem with beryl, when they are on msn, or am installing programs, or I make other, jams all, and I more do not succeed to move the mouse, and the keyboard

[08:58] <xtknight> !adduser
[08:58] <ubotu> To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo
[08:58] <MrDevil> someone knows the problem?
[08:58] <xtknight> !sudo
[08:58] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:58] <psycho78> cables: will do, thanks
[08:58] <mbd> [WaZ] , i dont have AIGLX, and dapper has composite off as default. yes i have ATI radeon 9800
[08:59] <Sarthor> Hi, Using ubuntu, Just newuser, my squid is not working in transparent mode for my clients, port 80 has been redirected to 8080, Any Help? Using edgy.
[08:59] <yomen> xtknight: go to system->administration->users and gorups
[08:59] <HT> hi, is sagem fast 800's driver installed default in ubuntu 6.10 or i have to download and install?
[08:59] <[WaZ] > mbd: okay, doesn't hurt to put it, but you should still run sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv i believe
[08:59] <MrDevil> I use aiglx, I have a card video nVidia GeForce FX 5200, and have 512MB of RAM
[08:59] <MrDevil> :|
[08:59] <xtknight> yomen, thanks
[09:00] <meme4> hey folks... have a strange prob with ubuntu. It started with Firefox behaving oddly. So I restarted FF and it no longer had my profile. Then I rebooted. Now I cannot log in. Ubuntu no longer recognizes my login OR the admin login. Prior to this... nothing was modified (except a few security updates)
[09:00] <xtknight> meme4, sounds like /home folder damage
[09:00] <zligacy> ok, so i've tried the guide on ubuntu wiki docs, and my wireless card still isnt working
[09:00] <zligacy> is there anything else i can do?
[09:00] <NessieLiberation> nautilus splashscreen: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=322516
[09:00] <xtknight> brb
[09:01] <xtknight> VirtualBox kernel driver not accessible, permission problem. Make sure that the current user has write permissions to /dev/vboxdrv by adding him to the vboxusers groups. Don't forget to logout to take the change effect.
[09:01] <meme4> xtknight: But why would that affect the admin login. Other than plugging in the Ubuntu Live... any other suggestions. I can't even get to terminal
[09:02] <xtknight> added 'andy' to vboxusers, logged out.  still failure.  xboxusers is listed in 'groups'.  ideas?
[09:02] <cables> hey, can DEB packages include scripts to be run when they're installed? It sorta seems like they can.
[09:02] <xtknight> cables, post install scripts
[09:02] <xtknight> see debian docs
[09:02] <xtknight> !MOTU
[09:02] <ubotu> motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU
[09:02] <cables> xtknight, ok. So by that logic, couldn't nvidia-glx run nvidia-xconfig themselves?
[09:03] <xtknight> cables, they could but it's messy.
[09:03] <xtknight> not everyone wants to run nvidia-xconfig
[09:03] <xtknight> it would replace Xorg.conf spontaneously when not always needed
[09:03] <cables> xtknight, ok, what about an nvidia-easy package or something?
[09:03] <xtknight> cables, they could.  though feisty takes care of it nowadays
[09:03] <nexeus> anyone manage to get aiglx with ati card here
[09:03] <Sarthor> Hi, Using ubuntu, Just newuser, my squid is not working in transparent mode for my clients, port 80 has been redirected to 8080, Any Help? Using edgy.
[09:03] <cables> xtknight, i have a problem with feisty taking care of it... if you modify your xorg, it gets angry at you.
[09:04] <xtknight> cables, it gets feisty does it?
[09:04] <xtknight> cables, i dont know i havent tried it :)
[09:04] <cables> xtknight, it does :)
[09:04] <xtknight> havent had to touch xorg.conf
[09:04] <xtknight> and i'm glad
[09:04] <xtknight> Feisty is awesome
[09:04] <cables> xtknight, neither have I, but I've heard it does... I haven't had to touch it because I'm running in a VM with no acceleration :)
[09:04] <Sarthor> I am asking again and again. Some one will mind my this act and will get angry... Need help.
[09:04] <jrib> Sarthor: ask your question
[09:04] <cables> !ask | Sorth
[09:05] <xtknight> cables, did you have problems getting VBox to run initially?
[09:05] <ubotu> Sorth: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:05] <cables> wtf, sorry

[09:05] <cables> xtknight, I had to add my user to vboxusers, i think that was it.
[09:05] <ramza3> I want to do an update for gedit, get the newest release, is that possible, apt says it is up to date
[09:05] <Sarthor> WaZ and jrib asked.
[09:05] <cables> xtknight, try running as root, see if it works then.
[09:05] <xtknight> cables, i'd rather not but i'll tryt
[09:05] <geekunit> i've got an mp3 player that's set for MTP.  Anyway to get Ubuntu to mount it?
[09:05] <cables> xtknight, i wouldn't try it...
[09:06] <[WaZ] > Sarthor: never used squidmail
[09:06] <S0UL> Hi...
[09:06] <cables> xtknight, root = dangerous :)
[09:06] <cables> xtknight, but you know that.
[09:06] <S0UL> will somebody help me out with somefing real quick...
[09:06] <xtknight> pain anyway
[09:06] <xtknight> 'cause my VMs are in ~/
[09:06] <Sarthor> WaZ, Its proxy server, not squidmail.
[09:06] <jrib> S0UL: ask your question

[09:06] <merick> can someone help me with setting up my monitor?
[09:06] <S0UL> Is anybody familiar with Secirut Auditor Collection live cd?
[09:06] <cables> xtknight, VBox won't run your existing vmware VMs...
[09:06] <Sarthor> WaZ, any thanks for Reply,
[09:07] <xtknight> cables, i know that
[09:07] <Sarthor> No i can say that some used to reply on irc. ;)

[09:07] <budluva> can someone help me here, im having problems mounting a 2nd harddisk, everytime to go to open the folder /media/hdb1, i get an error saying i don't have permission to mount, i have ownership of /media/hdb1 and i have the user option set in my fstab, anything i am missing here?
[09:07] <cables> xtknight, if you have VBox VMs, make sure that not only are they in ~/, but they're also not owned by root.
[09:07] <cables> xtknight, you need to reboot after the vboxusers trick
[09:07] <xtknight> cables, actually it is on /media/sda3, owned my Andy atm
[09:07] <[WaZ] > Sarthor: no reply usually means noone feels able to help ;-)
[09:08] <xtknight> cables, restarted gdm.  group seems to appear when i type in bash (it didn't earlier).  i assume i'm in the group atm
[09:08] <Sarthor> Was i have correct my no as now* you can see that. ;)
[09:08] <qbert> i need to get my right control to act as delete, someone knows how to do that with xkb ?

[09:08] <S0UL> I am trying to get Wellenreiter and Kismet running on my Laptop using a live Knoppix cd I have with penetration testing tools...things is...the live cd won't allow me to use my WLAN card to do these test...
[09:08] <[WaZ] > Sarthor: yeah i have
[09:09] <robinlinth_> Anybody know where you can set the port the standard Ubuntu bittorrent client uses?
[09:09] <qbert> hehe , he said penetration
[09:09] <[WaZ] > Sarthor: theres a #squid channel
[09:09] <S0UL> Linux Bible gives some troubleshooting commands to try...but these aren't that intuitive.
[09:09] <Sarthor> WaZ thank you , that nice, Let me go there, Thank you again.
[09:10] <S0UL> Anybody?
[09:10] <spox> hi seems like rc.local is not being executed on my Edgy installation - can anyone help me to diagnose?
[09:10] <[WaZ] > Sarthor: no problem, hope someone is alive in there
[09:10] <ardchoille> S0UL: Questions about the knoppix livecd should go to a knoppix channel.
[09:10] <S0UL> When I run the WLAN gui to configure my WLAN settings...ssid, encryption key and so on....
[09:11] <baktaah> What does tarball mean, or PKG?
[09:11] <jrib> Sarthor: if no one knows what's going on there, what does 'apt-cache policy squid' show for the version?
[09:11] <NessieLiberation> tarball is .tar
[09:11] <S0UL> the utility comes back with a fatal error stating: it was not possible to find any wireless devices, connot continue...
[09:11] <NessieLiberation> ie multiple files joined together in an archive
[09:12] <ardchoille> S0UL: This is with the knoppix livecd?
[09:12] <NessieLiberation> often zipped as .tar.gz or .tar.bz2 to compress as well
[09:12] <S0UL> Yes....
[09:12] <ardchoille> S0UL: Questions about the knoppix livecd should go to a knoppix channel.
[09:12] <NessieLiberation> when i upgraded from Breezy to Dapper and from Dapper to Edgy, it left the boot options on the boot page, so now i have 6 options instead of 2, manual edit required, or will that screw it up?

[09:12] <tgalus> hello all.. i have a question about the Nvidia-Legacy driver in Feisty
[09:12] <S0UL> is there such a channel?
[09:13] <[WaZ] > Nessie`: it shouldn't
[09:13] <kitche> Nessie`: nope just delete the entries you don't want
[09:13] <Lowe> Nessie`: i don't think it will screw up
[09:13] <Nessie`> oki thanks
[09:13] <Sarthor> jrib, Where to paste the output, because i will be out if i paste here.
[09:13] <Lowe> Nessie`: to be sure, make a backup
[09:13] <Nessie`> is it supposed to happen? or just my bad luck
[09:13] <jrib> Sarthor: I just need the part after "Installed:", but for larger pastes you can use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[09:14] <kitche> Nessie`: that's how ubuntu works if you upgrade kernels it keeps your old ones on your computer
[09:14] <Nessie`> oki
[09:14] <Nessie`> and to remove them to save some diskspace?
[09:14] <tgalus> when i start up GDM to bring up X with the nvidia driver it squashs the picture off to the left half of the screen.. i've tried everything i can think of.. even fed it the modeline for my monitor
[09:14] <ugn> i really am getting to love ubuntu
[09:14] <Sarthor> jrib  Installed: 2.6.1-3ubuntu1.3
[09:15] <ugn> eventhough the first time it's usually not so easy esp the terminal
[09:15] <ugn> hi Hypnotic
[09:15] <jrib> Sarthor: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squid/+bug/68818 does this describe your problem?
[09:16] <Sarthor> jrib let me check.
[09:16] <atomiku> For some reason I cant add/edit/delete policies in firestarter, the add/edit/delete buttons are greyed out. Why is this?
[09:16] <[WaZ] > atomiku: you need to be root?
[09:17] <atomiku> yezh
[09:17] <tgalus> anyone heard of problems with the nvidia legacy driver and a 420MX GO adapter?
[09:17] <atomiku> well
[09:17] <atomiku> i gksudo started it
[09:17] <meme4> hey folks... have a strange prob with ubuntu. It started with Firefox behaving oddly. So I restarted FF and it no longer had my profile. Then I rebooted. Now I cannot log in. Ubuntu no longer recognizes my login OR the admin login. Prior to this... nothing was modified (except a few security updates)

[09:17] <ugn> i need some help on how to compile and run some source codes in C
[09:17] <ugn> can anybody help?
[09:18] <meme4> I am in Ubuntu live now. But I cannot see volumes in disk manager. Gnome partition manager sees the partitions,
[09:18] <kbidd> Has anybody gotten 6.10 to successfully run under Microsoft Virtual PC 2007?
[09:18] <[WaZ] > meme4: your partitions aren't mounted
[09:18] <ugn> wat are u tryn to do meme4
[09:19] <xtknight> ugn, yes.  what kind of source code?
[09:20] <soxneon> Can anybody tell me if Cool n' Quiet is enabled by default in the AMD64 version of Ubuntu 6.10 ?
[09:20] <xtknight> soxneon, i don't believe that it is.
[09:20] <xtknight> soxneon, you need to adjust powernowd
[09:20] <soxneon> Is there any way to enable it at the present time?
[09:20] <ugn> xtknight, i compiled some programs in windows and when i changed to ubuntu i need to know how i can edit and run those programs
[09:20] <xtknight> soxneon, not sure of the details but powernow/powernowd are some keywords with regards to Linux
[09:21] <spox> is there any special syntax of listing scripts in rc.local ?
[09:21] <tbuss> looking for help with openoffice calc. does anyone know how to select nonconsecutive cells to be used in a SUM() function
[09:21] <soxneon> xtk, I tried using sudo /etc/init.d/powernowd start but it returns that CNQ is not supported.
[09:21] <ugn> xtknight, can u help?
[09:21] <xtknight> ugn, like in visual studio?
[09:21] <[WaZ] > tbuss: press ctrl
[09:21] <xtknight> soxneon, hrmm interesting
[09:21] <xtknight> soxneon, is it enabled in your BIOS?
[09:21] <roshan_s> Does anyone know how to get the X server to ungrab the mouse?  Is there any way to remove the grab without killing the X server?
[09:21] <ugn> xtknight, nope in the terminal
[09:22] <xtknight> ugn, " gcc -o <output_object> Cfile1.c Cfile2.c Cfile3.c Cfile4.c "
[09:22] <soxneon> xtk, yes, it works in Windows XP (not Vista 64, which is on my other partition).
[09:22] <ugn> xtknight, wat?
[09:22] <xtknight> for cpp, g++ -o <output_object) Cppfile1.cxx Cppfile2.cxx Cppfile3.cxx Cppfile4.cxx
[09:22] <ugn> xtknight, i didnt get that
[09:22] <xtknight> ugn, you have a directory of .c files, right?
[09:22] <tbuss> [WaZ] : i tried that but it selects the range between the cells?
[09:23] <ugn> xtknight, i called it source codes
[09:23] <[WaZ] > tbuss, just a sec
[09:23] <xtknight> ugn, well gcc/g++ are the compilers.  ld is the linker
[09:23] <ugn> xtknight, ok
[09:23] <xtknight> ugn, i would need more detalis to help you further
[09:23] <xtknight> ugn, details*
[09:23] <meme4> [WaZ] : Ty but how does one mount a volume from Ubuntu live.... when the /mnt folder is read only?
[09:24] <tbuss> [Waz] : =sum;'44Hr Week'.L10:L13 (I just need L10,L12, and L13)
[09:24] <[WaZ] > tbuss, press ctrl before you select the first field
[09:24] <soxneon> Is it possible then to use the AMD-supplied linux drivers to enable CNQ if the kernal won't?
[09:24] <glj12> Hey um... quick question. How come my sound was working great on Ubuntu during the livecd, but not on the installation version? Any troubleshooting help?
[09:24] <tgalus> ok i also have a wireless networking problem too... my interface refuses to automatically come up at 54M.. it comes up 11M and i can manually get it to 54M. I added a 'wireless-rate' line in my interfaces file but it didn't seem to help
[09:25] <ugn> xtknight, i have a directory called source codes containing files. but if i double click it opens with the editor. how do i make it run? how do i run the program?
[09:25] <xtknight> soxneon, #linux may have a better idea
[09:25] <[WaZ] > tbuss:  it will liik like other are not selected, but they are in the formula
[09:25] <soxneon> ty xtk
[09:25] <xtknight> ugn, so the directory contains a bunch of *.c and *.h files?
[09:25] <xtknight> ugn, and you want to 'run' these..
[09:25] <meme4> I would seem logical to automount Linux partitions. Crazy!  So can anyone tell me how to mount partitions on Ubuntu live?
[09:25] <ugn> xtknight, yep
[09:25] <xtknight> ugn, is this a simple program ?  does it require any extra components to run?
[09:25] <glj12> erm, anyone ever dealt with this before?
[09:26] <xtknight> ugn, does it need to be linked with any libraries other than the standard C?
[09:26] <kitche> mem4: sudo mount /dev/xxx /media/mountpoint/
[09:26] <oxigen> hey, which are decent audio cards (pro?) for pc?
[09:26] <xtknight> #includes don't matter right now
[09:26] <oxigen> it's hard to find on google
[09:26] <ugn> xtknight, i dnt understand u but no it doesnt.they are simple programs
[09:26] <glj12> Hey um... quick question. How come my sound was working great on Ubuntu during the livecd, but not on the installation version? Any troubleshooting help?
[09:26] <glj12> What changed between that point and now?
[09:26] <xtknight> ugn, i am guessing all you have to do is compile all the c files together into an object
[09:26] <kitche> glj12: did you check volume levels?
[09:26] <xtknight> ugn, to installer your C compiler and linker: `sudo apt-get install build-essential`
[09:26] <glj12> yes
[09:27] <glj12> everything is set high
[09:27] <[WaZ] > glj12: even PCM?
[09:27] <glj12> everything i can see
[09:27] <kitche> glk12: do lsof /dev/dsp just to see if something is using it
[09:27] <tbuss> [Waz] : same result, I want the sum of L10, L12, L13. I want to exclude L11, I tried the crtl before the selection but it still inputs the range L10:L13
[09:27] <xtknight> glj12, may need to adjust digital/analog switch in gnome-volume-control
[09:27] <glj12> you see, i have an audio card as well, with integreated
[09:27] <pcircle> anyone else have xchat crash on dcc get?
[09:27] <xtknight> glj12, also you may need to set a primary audio card
[09:27] <[WaZ] > glj12: go in Edit>preferences and add PCM
[09:27] <glj12> how do i set a primary audio card?
[09:27] <glj12> ok
[09:27] <meme4> kitche: thanks but I cannot create a folder in media. read only. I am booted on Ubuntu live right now.
[09:27] <sebaskate> :)

[09:31] <[WaZ] > glj12: was it muted?
[09:31] <glj12> no
[09:31] <kestaz> better*
[09:31] <xtknight> kestaz, tickless, undoubtedly is the best
[09:31] <xtknight> kestaz, for battery life
[09:31] <kestaz> ok
[09:31] <tbuss> [Waz] : I had tried that, I had the syntax wrong for seperating the cells, I used the advise you gave and it worked
[09:31] <glj12> i had already unmuted all devices and raised volume to the max setting
[09:32] <kestaz> xtknight, any other laptop optimizations ?
[09:32] <xtknight> kestaz, i suggest applaying the realtime patches to get tickless.  i don't believe it is in the defualt kernel tree right now.
[09:32] <glj12> and have tried audio on each device, but nothing
[09:32] <kitche> conidu14: your forgeting the / infront

[09:35] <pcircle> Xchat on Edgy seems to crash on dcc get. Anyone else have that problem?
[09:35] <glj12> [WaZ] : when it says testing, that means that it is playing sound? b/c i have tried all of theme one by one with no luck.
[09:35] <chobo2> hi
[09:35] <fr500_> kbidd: the installer?
[09:35] <[WaZ] > glj12: yeah it should
[09:35] <chobo2> i need help
[09:35] <glj12> weird
[09:36] <chobo2> i got a problem
[09:36] <glj12> i wonder why all worked well on the livecd from the get-go.
[09:36] <ardchoille> chobo2: With what?
[09:36] <chobo2> i just installed kubuntu(i have ubuntu too)
[09:36] <chobo2> but now in unbuntu
[09:36] <kbidd> fr500, yeah, off the install cd... don't see the option for text mode... did they take it off the menu, and if so, how do I get to it?
[09:36] <chobo2> my openoffice will not load
[09:36] <chobo2> but in kubuntu it loads
[09:36] <KurtKraut> chobo2, please, explain your problem in fewer lines.
[09:36] <fr500_> kbidd: download the alternate installer
[09:36] <[WaZ] > glj12: have you tried disabling your onboard card in BIOS?
[09:36] <glj12> no i haven't, there isnt an option for that.
[09:37] <Duran> Can someone help me set up my partition table for dual boot install of ubuntu?
[09:37] <clparker> anybody here know how to upgrade to Azureus <IP_ADDRESS>?
[09:37] <glj12> shouldnt the settings remain the same from livecd to hdd install?
[09:37] <[WaZ] > glj12: they should...
[09:37] <JoKer23> @Duran, just query me
[09:37] <chobo2> well like I said i have ubuntu and then I installed kubuntu so i could see what it is like now when i go into ubuntu i can't load any open office program up but with i go into kbuntu i can load openoffice up
[09:37] <glj12> [WaZ] : very odd
[09:37] <glj12> anything else come to mind?
[09:37] <[WaZ] > glj12: happens, conflicting hardware...
[09:38] <glj12> yeah
[09:38] <JoKer23> is there someone who can help me with disabling my onboard-snd-card under linux ?
[09:38] <glj12> i wish i could disable that crap trap of integrated audio
[09:38] <chobo2> so anyone have any ideas?
[09:38] <[WaZ] > glj12: see your not the only one ;-)
[09:38] <JoKer23> ;-)
[09:38] <glj12> hehe
[09:38] <glj12> nice
[09:38] <[WaZ] > glj12: you could blacklist the onboard snd driver
[09:38] <glj12> hey joker, did your audio work in the livecd?
[09:38] <KurtKraut> chobo2, you installed kubuntu-desktop package, right ?
[09:38] <JoKer23> i've found one article which was working good in my case
[09:38] <JoKer23> nope
[09:38] <glj12> hmmm
[09:38] <kcusr1> does anyone know if the Radeon X600 (and others) driver issues have been fixed in the Feisty Fawn beta?  i can't install with the "alternate cd" edgy eft either, i get the "sydlogd" freeze :(
[09:38] <glj12> [WaZ] : how do i go about that?
[09:39] <mbd> glj12, [WaZ] , usually possible in the bios. press delete when the computer starts
[09:39] <glj12> mbd: Not an option.
[09:39] <mbd> k
[09:39] <[WaZ] > mbd: i told him that, he says its not an option
[09:39] <mbd> oh, sorry
[09:39] <[WaZ] > mbd: did you try what I told you to do?
[09:39] <andy_> at the moment, I only have a console, what's the best way to configure my xserver so I can use it with my ATI Radeon card?
[09:39] <glj12> mbd: The weird part was that it worked steller in the livecd, but not in the hdd install
[09:39] <A55A551N> does anybody know where I can find a good Knoppix channel?
[09:39] <Duran> @JoKer23, check your query window
[09:39] <JoKer23> glj12: try this tutorial, i will do so as well ;-)
[09:39] <glj12> A55A551N: #knoppix ?
[09:40] <A55A551N> nobody is alive in there...
[09:40] <mbd> [WaZ] ,  yes. it returns Found fglrx primary device section
[09:40] <mbd> Nothing to do, terminating.
[09:40] <glj12> oo
[09:40] <A55A551N> no conversations what so ever about anything...
[09:40] <chobo2> ya i used a tutorial where you used command line to install it it
[09:40] <kbidd> andy_, you could edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[09:40] <glj12> JoKer23: What tutorial?
[09:40] <[WaZ] > and did it add two lines?
[09:40] <matt_> how can i get gtk-gnuttella on edgy? the one in my add/remove is an "old version", is there a new version?
[09:40] <mbd> [WaZ] , no
[09:40] <facugaich> Any program suitable for creating GIF animations?
[09:40] <[WaZ] > mbd: okay, ill give you the lines to add
[09:40] <JoKer23> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=44753
[09:40] <chobo2> so i am not sure what to do
[09:40] <glj12> k
[09:40] <kbidd> facugaich, i like gimp with gap (gimp with the gimp animation package)
[09:41] <JoKer23> it's old, but was working fine under my dapper
[09:41] <[WaZ] > mbd: might be because of the two devices
[09:41] <glj12> JoKer23: but the weird part is that the livecd worked fine with it
[09:41] <chobo2> i don't understand why it works in kubuntu but not ubuntu
[09:41] <andy_> kbidd: which module works for the radeon?
[09:41] <JoKer23> this is strenge
[09:41] <facugaich> kbidd, I'll check it out thanks
[09:41] <KurtKraut> chobo2, it wasn't supposed to happen. Are you using Edgy ?
[09:41] <mbd> [WaZ]  no, i dont use that serverlayout, i use the one named Default ATM
[09:41] <chobo2> yes
[09:41] <kbidd> andy_, not sure
[09:41] <mbd> [WaZ] , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13401/ for updated info
[09:41] <A55A551N> Is anybody familiar with Wellenreiter?
[09:41] <KurtKraut> chobo2, if nobody here pop up a solution, ask for help in ubuntuforums.org
[09:42] <chobo2> ok i will ask on the fourms then
[09:42] <JoKer23> r u familiar with stupid nicks ?
[09:42] <ugn_> xtknight, are u there?
[09:42] <kbidd> facugaich, i know that there is a ubuntu package for gimp... not sure about gap... if not, you can download the source off of gimp's sourceforge page
[09:42] <facugaich> kbidd, gimp-gap :)
[09:42] <[WaZ] > mbd: thats my device section, which works with opengl http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13405/
[09:42] <xtknight> ugn, yea
[09:42] <A55A551N> how does one manually install drivers?
[09:42] <kcusr1> will the fiesty fawn beta use the fglrx driver for the x600 by default?  i can't install ubuntu otherwise (text install freezes on syslogd daemon start)
[09:42] <kbidd> facugaich, that would be it :-P
[09:42] <WhoDaBear> Hi folks. Newbie in need of help - my sound crackles horribly all the time.  Have tried the forums to no avail.
[09:42] <duranxx> @JoKer23, check your query window
[09:43] <SlimeyPete> A55A551N: usually it's a case of compiling a module, or re-compiling your kernel with the module built in.
[09:43] <Jeeva> can someone PLEASE help me with samba shares? i want to create a read/write share for 2 users, how do i do it ?
[09:43] <ugn_> a friend told me there was a way to do that by using the *vim syntax in thye terminal
[09:43] <SlimeyPete> A55A551N: some drivers are available via synaptic, though.
[09:43] <xtknight> ugn_, not sure about that
[09:43] <A55A551N> Pete: which module?
[09:43] <MikeCamel> folks - due to a rather nasty upgrade from dapper, I've just done a clean edgy install, and it fails to find either of my soundcards.  any ideas?
[09:44] <ugn_> xtknight, i tried what i gave me but there were errors
[09:44] <SlimeyPete> A55A551N: that depends on the driver. Drivers are contained in modules - your system is currently running lots of driver modules. There's a different module for each driver.
[09:44] <A55A551N> how do I locate which module is specific to a hardware piece?
[09:44] <xtknight> A55A551N, is it listed in "sudo lshw"
[09:44] <SlimeyPete> A55A551N: if you're looking for a specific driver it's worth checking synaptic first (try typing in the manufacturer or model)
[09:45] <xtknight> A55A551N, "sudo lshw | strings > lshwOutput && gedit lshwOutput"  then look through
[09:45] <hajiko> Why can't I execute synaptic, update-manager or add / remove programs from the gnome menu's? Shouldn't it use gksudo by defualt?!
[09:45] <A55A551N> Pete: Thanks! Let me see what the command brings back...
[09:45] <rambo3> yeah that much simpler then rolling side bar
[09:45] <SlimeyPete> xtknight: isn't that just modules that are already installed?
[09:45] <ugn_> xtknight, are u there?
[09:45] <SlimeyPete> hajiko: yes, it should
[09:45] <xtknight> ugn_ yes.......
[09:46] <xtknight> ugn_, tried what?
[09:46] <hajiko> SlimeyPete: what should I do?!
[09:46] <Boing> I am tearing my hair out with Beryl - minimized windows show on every viewport of the cube - am I missing something simple?
[09:46] <SlimeyPete> A55A551N: if you have no luck with synaptic or the lshw thing, google for your make/model of hardware and append the word "linux"
[09:46] <kcusr1> does anyone know what causes the syslogd freeze?
[09:46] <ugn_> xtknight, the sudo thing
[09:46] <xamox> what is the command I need if I want to mount a samba share to a directory and have write permissions as a normal user? I know it's something like smbmount //IP_address/share /mnt/dir fmask=777,dmask=777, etc.   I formatted and don't remember what it's suppose to be.
[09:46] <LjL> !beryl > Boing
[09:46] <tung> what is the best plug or way to view videos on sites like kontraband?
[09:46] <SlimeyPete> hajiko: first of all, check whether gksudo is installed (it should be by default, but you never know)
[09:46] <xtknight> ugn_, i have no idea what you're talking about
[09:46] <MikeCamel> anyone help with edgy soundcard problems?
[09:47] <SlimeyPete> what card?
[09:47] <mbd> [WaZ] , it didnt help :\
[09:47] <SlimeyPete> MikeCamel: ^^
[09:47] <MikeCamel> slimeypete - I've got two in, but the one I want to use is an Ensoniq.  was fine until a clean install of edgy - now neither is seen.
[09:47] <ugn_> xtknight, u gave me this command //sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:47] <[WaZ] > mbd: arf, was sure it would
[09:47] <MikeCamel> 02:02.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI (rev 02)
[09:47] <stjepan> hi
[09:47] <stjepan> gnome-look.org seems down
[09:47] <hajiko> SlimeyPete: I have it
[09:48] <stjepan> can someone send me humanblue gtk theme??
[09:48] <meme4> hey folks... have a strange prob with ubuntu. It started with Firefox behaving oddly. So I restarted FF and it no longer had my profile. Then I rebooted. Now I cannot log in. Ubuntu no longer recognizes my login OR the admin login. Prior to this... nothing was modified (except a few security updates) - I am shocked that thus far and in five IRC channels, no one seems to have any solutions!
[09:48] <HT> hi, i want to install the 7.04 today, but when the final version will be released (19 april), do i have to do just a Up to date, or download the last one and reinstall?
[09:48] <xtknight> ugn_, oh
[09:48] <xtknight> ugn_, why did it fail?
[09:48] <xtknight> HT, just update
[09:48] <xtknight> though you may prefer a clean
[09:48] <SlimeyPete> hajiko: hmm, odd. Might be worth filing a bug. Also, I'm not sure how you do this but presumably Gnome will allow you to look at what command the menu items are calling (sorry, I don't use Gnome atm)
[09:48] <merick> can someon tel me how to setup my new monitor? I already tried using dpkg-reconfigure but I had to restore my backup of the xorg.conf because the screen got all scrambled after reboot
[09:48] <ugn_> xtknight, there were errors
[09:48] <xtknight> just because of all the .deb cache
[09:49] <xtknight> ugn_, well what errors? pastebin :O
[09:49] <SlimeyPete> MikeCamel: if you do an lsmod, is there a likely-looking module listed there?
[09:49] <mbd> [WaZ] , this is a tough nut.. im starting to suspect package problems... as ive fucked around alot with my computer (no non .deb installed), and have a few nonworking programs and broken packages
[09:49] <ppepp> hi, i got ubuntu 6.06 about a month ago and had some sound and visual problems. i sorted both out, but now my sound has completely gone again. what command do i type to list the sound card info ?
[09:49] <A55A551N> Pete: Thanks...but it seems that as much as linux distro are similar...Knoppix is different.  I'm using this ubuntu channel cause nobody is talking in the Knoppix one. I figured ubuntu wouldn't be too far fetched from Knoppix..
[09:49] <bulmer> meme4 you know how to recover your the account? boot off liveCD and mount the hd where /etc/shadow is on , then modify accordingly
[09:49] <[WaZ] > mbd: want me to post my whole xorg.conf ?
[09:49] <grndslm> meme4:  you can go to a virtual terminal, right?  and can login without gdm??
[09:49] <MikeCamel> slimeypete - yes, snd_ens1371
[09:49] <JoKer23> meme4:  can you logon on "normal" console ?
[09:49] <mbd> [WaZ] , yeah

[09:50] <[WaZ] > its for edgy Beryl/xgl
[09:50] <SlimeyPete> harmental: np
[09:50] <bulmer> ugn stop pasting too many lines
[09:50] <SlimeyPete> erk
[09:50] <mbd> [WaZ] , could u scroll up for the adress to my pasted page? and post that also
[09:50] <sanityx> What do you guys reccomend for burning MP3s to cd form?
[09:50] <SlimeyPete> MikeCamel: So it's not listed in the mixer at all?
[09:50] <[WaZ] > okay
[09:50] <SlimeyPete> sanityx: k3b will do it, I think?
[09:50] <MikeCamel> nopoe
[09:50] <MikeCamel> nope
[09:50] <MikeCamel> soz
[09:50] <ugn_> xtknight, did u see that
[09:50] <grndslm> ugn_:  use www.pastebin.ca or something like that for large pastes, any paste really
[09:50] <CheshireViking> sanityx, k3b works for me
[09:50] <sanityx> SlimeyPete, yeah but that's a qt app
[09:50] <rysiek|pl> guys, how to check if I am running a 64bit or 32bit system?
[09:50] <sanityx> I'd prefer a gtk app
[09:50] <[WaZ] > mbd: mine: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13406/
[09:51] <xtknight> ugn_, i got it (though use pastebin in the future)
[09:51] <SlimeyPete> MikeCamel: is there anything interesting in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base?
[09:51] <MikeCamel> rysiek|pl - try less /proc/cpuinfo
[09:51] <SlimeyPete> maybe it's being misdetected or something
[09:51] <[WaZ] > mbd: yours: <mbd> [WaZ] , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13401/ for updated info
[09:51] <xtknight> ugn_, it looks like a network problem on your end.  not much i can do
[09:51] <meme4> JoKer23: no... suddenly after I booted ubuntu no longer recognizes my login OR the admin login. GUI or text logins
[09:51] <mbd> [WaZ] , thanks.. bbl prob, found a wiki =)
[09:51] <JoKer23> shice
[09:51] <MikeCamel> the file doesn't even exist.
[09:51] <[WaZ] > mbd: hehe k
[09:51] <ugn_> xtknight, ok. how do i use the pastebin?
[09:51] <xtknight> !paste | ugn_
[09:51] <ubotu> ugn_: 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)
[09:51] <MikeCamel> yes it does. sorry - completion problem.
[09:51] <grndslm> sanityx:  k3b all day long...only other real option is gnomebaker which was very buggy the last time i used it...could only burn coasters
[09:52] <sanityx> hehe
[09:52] <xtknight> jhaha
[09:52] <JoKer23> meme4: did u tried the recovery boot ?
[09:52] <SlimeyPete> rysiek|pl: "uname -a" in a terminal. If it says i686 then you're running 32bit (assuming you're on a PC)
[09:52] <sanityx> grndslm, I'll try gnomebaker, if its no good I'll use k3b
[09:52] <SlimeyPete> MikeCamel: that might be the issue then, as far as I know there should always be a file there.
[09:53] <MikeCamel> slimeypete - can't find alsa-base in /lib/modules/*, though
[09:53] <ardchoille> sanityx: I've been using gnomebaker for a few months on Dapper and it hasn't produced any coasters yet.
[09:53] <Lanken> anyone have any idea why konqueror might do this: http://tinyurl.com/2jsrrt
[09:53] <JoKer23> meme4: do you have signs (i.e. #+~ ...) in your password/or username ?
[09:53] <sanityx> Oh now that I see it, I've used gnomebaker before. Worked fine for me.
[09:53] <Lanken> ?
[09:53] <MikeCamel> slimeypete - sorry, there is a file there.
[09:53] <rysiek|pl> SlimeyPete: right, thanks
[09:53] <SlimeyPete> rysiek|pl: np
[09:53] <ugn_> xtknight, thanks alot. i hope i see u again
[09:53] <meme4> JoKer23: Is that available on the LiveDVD?
[09:53] <tgalus> ok does anyone have any experience with wifi or the nvidia legacy drivers?
[09:54] <MikeCamel> tgalus - some.
[09:54] <JoKer23> no should be available from grub
[09:54] <xtknight> ugn_, cya
[09:54] <ugn_> xtknight, i will get my friend to teach me wat he was talking about and i will tell u about it
[09:54] <meme4> JoKer23: no special chars. in my username/pass.  It worked fine for the last 3 weeks since the install
[09:54] <[WaZ] > !anyone > tgalus
[09:54] <MikeCamel> lanken - there's a redirect that will cause anything you load to look like that.  someone may be playing wth your head.
[09:54] <xtknight> ugn_, ok sounds good
[09:54] <tgalus> ok... my wifi problem is how do i get it to come up in 54M (g) mode.. it always comes up in 11M mode
[09:55] <tgalus> but i can force it to 54M with iwconfig
[09:55] <JoKer23> meme4: it's strange, i remember such case, that my keyb was switched from DE to US
[09:55] <Lanken> crap...you think maybe it's some sort of man-in-the-middle?
[09:55] <MikeCamel> tgalus - what does "iwconfig <iface> scan"  give you?
[09:55] <ugn_> xtknight, are u online always?
[09:55] <MikeCamel> lanken - possibly.
[09:55] <xtknight> ugn_, quite a bit
[09:55] <Lanken> MikeCamel: I should stop stealing my neighbor's wireless
[09:55] <meme4> JoKer23: No, I don't believe this is a keyboard issue.
[09:55] <tgalus> should that be iwlist <iface> scan?
[09:55] <xtknight> ugn_, dont worry about it but if u happen to catch me let me know
[09:56] <MikeCamel> lanken - I've heard it done for _exactly_ that reason.
[09:56] <JoKer23> meme4: you're @ std-us qwerty ?
[09:56] <Lanken> huh, well, good, at least I didn't break my system.
[09:56] <MikeCamel> slimeypete - any thoughts?  do you know where the alsa modules reside, package-wise?
[09:56] <chasetoys> oh noes;; sudo apt-get update fails:  chasetoys@LilArooni:/etc/apt$ sudo apt-get update E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the list directory
[09:56] <chasetoys> any ideas?
[09:56] <chasetoys> how can i fix this
[09:57] <mbd> Lanken, yeah, that is some plugin for a proxy
[09:57] <tgalus> MikeCamel: it shows my work AP with all rates listed (1M-54M)
[09:57] <grndslm> you have synaptic open??
[09:57] <Harry_Callahan> Can somebody explain why I'm getting the "500 FTP server shut down errore" after successfully installing and trying out proftpd?
[09:57] <mbd> Lanken, search digg
[09:57] <grndslm> chasetoys?
[09:57] <meme4> JoKer23: yes. keyboard is standard.
[09:57] <ugn_> xtknight, ok . i will get online 2mrw from school and im sure by that time i will have the info
[09:57] <mbd> Lanken, exactly for fucking with wifi stealers
[09:57] <chasetoys> grndslm: no i dont have synaptic open
[09:57] <MikeCamel> chasetoys - you may have another process running which is using it.  like auto-update.  might be worth waiting a while.
[09:57] <JoKer23> meme4: anyway, did you found recovery in grub-menu / startup ?
[09:57] <ompaul> !language > mdb
[09:57] <MikeCamel> tgalus - sorry - nothing springs to mind.  it usually just works for me.
[09:58] <chasetoys> MikeCamel: chasetoys@LilArooni:/etc/apt$ ps -lA | grep update 0 S  1000  4949     1  0  75   0 -  8311 1      ?        00:00:00 update-notifier
[09:58] <grndslm> chasetoys:  if you don't have another apt-get or synaptic process running, then it *should* work
[09:58] <eyalw> how do i check kernel version?
[09:58] <chasetoys> grndslm: should i restart
[09:58] <grndslm> no
[09:58] <MikeCamel> chasetoys - that'll be it.
[09:58] <MikeCamel> eyalw - "uname -a"
[09:58] <SlimeyPete> MikeCamel: there's an "alsa-base" package which might provide what you want
[09:58] <chasetoys> MikeCamel: how do i proceed?
[09:58] <SlimeyPete> it should be installed by default, but.... shrug
[09:58] <MikeCamel> slimeypete - which is apparently installed.
[09:58] <grndslm> update-notifier will prevent apt-get from working???
[09:58] <MikeCamel> where will the alsa modules live?
[09:58] <chasetoys> oh shit
[09:58] <chasetoys> now it works!~
[09:59] <tgalus> MikeCamel: ok.. my other problem is the nvidia legacy driver loads but displays wrong on my screen.. i've even tried putting a modeline into my xorg.conf for it to use
[09:59] <chasetoys> thanks MikeCamel ... i didnt see that window open
[09:59] <MikeCamel> gnrdslm - if it happens to have the lock at that time.

[09:59] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:59] <MikeCamel> tgalus - that can be a real pain.  what exactly is the problem?
[09:59] <chasetoys> my bad ompaul ... i was excited;
[09:59] <baktaah> sorry ompaul
[09:59] <ompaul> baktaah, you got a pm from the bot :)
[10:00] <chasetoys> how can i get eclipse?
[10:00] <SlimeyPete> MikeCamel: sorry, but I'm not sure.
[10:00] <ompaul> !compile > baktaah (please read message from ubotu)
[10:00] <chasetoys> can i use apt-get install?  or do i need to download it from eclipse site
[10:00] <SlimeyPete> wish I could be more help.
[10:00] <baktaah> !compile
[10:00] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[10:00] <SlimeyPete> chasetoys: you can use apt-get A
[10:00] <tgalus> MikeCamel: when i start gdm to get X running it only displays on half the screen but there's a white bar across the whole lower screen.. i've tried giving it other resolutions and it always comes up the same
[10:00] <SlimeyPete> chasetoys: it's called eclipse-sdk
[10:00] <chills42> i used the apt-get for eclipse... works fine for me
[10:01] <ompaul> baktaah, read the message / tab from ubotu - that is where the info that goes from  !$fact > $nick goes
[10:01] <chasetoys> SlimeyPete: do you get version 3.2 with that?
[10:01] <ugn_> is Dennis Kaarsemaker online?
[10:01] <MikeCamel> slimeypete - could you do an ls "/lib/modules/<currentkernelver>/kernel/sound" pls?
[10:01] <baktaah> ompaul read the page
[10:01] <baktaah> nothing about buildpkg
[10:01] <baktaah> pkgbuild*
[10:01] <ugn_> this is it  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13409/
[10:01] <SlimeyPete> chasetoys: I think not, but eclipse has an update manager built in
[10:01] <SlimeyPete> Mi	will
[10:01] <SlimeyPete>  do
[10:01] <pcircle> nalioth: iam there
