[08:40] <god> wols_http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26767/
[08:40] <krismer> hola
[08:41] <duro> hi
[08:41] <god> wols_ thanks a lot for the help by the way :D
[08:41] <DirigibleMan> I've pored over the forums, asked for help on #alsa, tried what seems like every possible combination of settings, and still have no input of any type from my microphone, in any number of programs.  I have an ICH4 card, running the Intel8X0 driver.  Any troubleshooting advice?
[08:41] <krismer> hey?
[08:41] <stefg> supremesonic2: c++ , java and the term /vrey nice/ don't go along well in one sentence :-)
[08:41] <dnbc722> I can't seem to make my scanner work. Xsane has a backend for it but I don't know how to install it
[08:41] <Ravenndude`> supremesonic2, how is it better than plain old vim?
[08:41] <krismer> how are you duro?
[08:41] <dedi> can i list my folders and show the folder size?
[08:41] <supremesonic2> stefg, what do you mean?
[08:42] <supremesonic2> Ravenndude, its a patch you use on vim.
[08:42] <titof49> http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/
[08:42] <titof49> http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/
[08:42] <persica> DirigibleMan: have you set up an .amixer file (or whatever the .a* file is your home directory?)
[08:42] <supremesonic2> ravenndude, patch or plugin whatever you wanna call it :)
[08:42] <duro> goo, and u krismer
[08:42] <wols_> god: before you start any new ppp connection, STOP the old ones first. you only want pppp0
[08:42] <stefg> supremesonic2: just joking about java and c++ .... never mind
[08:42] <Jester_> hello
[08:42] <ferronica> when ubuntu will  update k-torrent ?
[08:42] <Ravenndude`> supremesonic2,  graphical vim, or command line?
[08:42] <cpcarey> september 07
[08:42] <DirigibleMan> persica: no .amixer file
[08:42] <NeXtDaY> what is the program that can help me designing webpages like microsoft front page ?
[08:42] <Jester_> What driver should I use for my graphic card (SiS650 VxD AGP)?
[08:42] <krismer> fine . where are you?
[08:42] <supremesonic2> stefg, I love java, and I love c++ most perfectly languages ever :)
[08:43] <god> wols_ i have no other connections on that pc ... i installed the sys from scratch...than i only configured adsl
[08:43] <kiwi_> question: has anybody with an audigy2 zs platinum pro got the external bay working with feisty?
[08:43] <supremesonic2> ravenndude, I hope for the last, I haven't tested it yet :)
[08:43] <Ravenndude`> ahhhh
[08:43] <wols_> god: it more looks like a modem hardware or ISP issue. but I still donw't get how you can connect via wireless to it. also, your 2nd PC you have, is it connected to the internt too when you use ppp?
[08:43] <persica> DirigibleMan: I remember configuring my input a year or two ago and having to mess with some alsa settings via a file in my home directory to get it to work.  let me see if I can find a link.
[08:43] <DirigibleMan> I've looked into using a .asoundrc file
[08:43] <god> wols_ it is the same problem on 2 computers :(
[08:43] <krismer> hey duro where are you?
[08:43] <alecjw> Jester_, sis i think
[08:43] <DirigibleMan> thanks persica
[08:43] <wols_> god: are both computers connected via ppp?
[08:43] <Jester_> thanks..
[08:44] <scorp123> Hi all
[08:44] <Jester> <_<
[08:44] <pi3> does Ubuntu automatically block a certain IP if a DoS (excessive pings) is detected?
[08:44] <god> wols_ maybe i messed things up?!  2 computers are conected seperately ( i only have one cable to go to internet )
[08:44] <wols_> p1ls: no
[08:44] <persica> DirigibleMan: Ah, it's called .asoundrc.  http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/asoundrc.php
[08:44] <duro> krismer private
[08:44] <wols_> god: are both computers connected via that ppp connection on that modem?
[08:44] <dedi> can i list my folders and show the folder size?
[08:44] <wols_> god: at the same time?
[08:44] <p1ls> wols_, what
[08:45] <dedi> la --help
[08:45] <Jester_> alecjw: I got drivers for Windows 98, Me & XP. And I want to use Linux
[08:45] <wols_> pi3: no
[08:45] <persica> DirigibleMan: You know where you'd probably find a lot of good info on this?  The Cedega forums at transgaming.org.
[08:45] <krismer> how? i new... i dont know
[08:45] <wols_> p1ls: p1ls is so similar tp pi3 :(
[08:45] <alecjw> Jester_, do you know how to set the driver?
[08:45] <p1ls> ;-p
[08:45] <Jester_> I think so
[08:45] <necro> so i have a radeon 7000 ati card, will opengl work ?
[08:45] <god> wols_ the only way i was able to go to internet through ubuntu... i set up a network in windows, so that the win PC is connected to internet and others connect through this win PC through wireless to internet...than i used ubuntu pc to connect to win wireless...and internet worked perfectly with no config ...
[08:45] <wols_> necro: yes. with the "ati" driver already in ubuntu
[08:46] <duro> krismer you got at the left column channel name and my nic
[08:46] <duro> nick
[08:46] <pi3> wols_: ??, does firestarter?
[08:46] <duro> click at my nick
[08:46] <alecjw> Jester_, then set it to sis. im not sure if its available in feisty and earlier. if you dont have sis/it doesnt work, try s3, s3virage, or as a last resort, vesa
[08:46] <god> wols_ yes, i am using the same connection right now, and it works perfectly with windows
[08:46] <scorp123> I am trying to boot the Ubuntu 7.04 (i386) Live CD on a system but I get this error: "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" ... any suggestions?
[08:46] <wols_> god: yes. either that or use the ubuntu PC only to go tto the internet and connect the Windows PC to the ubuntu PC via 2nd network car din ubuntu or wireless
[08:47] <fiXXXerMet>  I've installed the wifi-radar package.  wifi-radar detects my network(s), though I do not have a "connect" option - only "disconnect".  "connected to None (IP address:  old.ip.from.ethernet) is at the bottom of the program.   Also, I can not delete or edit any of the found profiles.  This is in xubuntu, but they didn't have any answers over there.
[08:47] <wols_> god: and as soon as you use ubunut and the windows machine is still on you get problems?
[08:47] <pi3> scorp123: have you checked the CD integrity?
[08:47] <duro> is the xfce more light as gnome?
[08:47] <endo> wols_: the command " echo "deb http://www.getautomatix.com/apt feisty main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list" doesn't seem to be working for me. Do you know why?
[08:47] <god> wols_ but how i make it so that ubuntu pc goes to internet on its own? da solo ? with no other pc connected?
[08:47] <wols_> !automatix
[08:47] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:47] <scorp123> pi3: it's the same CD by which installed *this* laptop here (which I am using *right now* )
[08:47] <wols_> endo: we don't support automatix systems here
[08:47] <endo> ok :D
[08:47] <necro> can ubuntu replace windows xp?
[08:47] <fiXXXerMet> duro: Yeah, it is lighter.  Runs much faster (much faster) on my older laptop
[08:48] <wols_> god: does that give you the error when you do that?
[08:48] <duro> k, thx fiXXXerMet
[08:48] <jiliang> hello
[08:48] <dyrne> necro: pretty much
[08:48] <DirigibleMan> persica: I'll check those forums
[08:48] <pi3> scorp123: then I don't know
[08:48] <supremesonic2> necro, the question is more can windows replace ubuntu, and the answer is no.
[08:48] <fiXXXerMet> Or, can anyone recommend a wifi connection manager?
[08:48] <wols_> god: cause you said you had your problems with both. you can only have one PC connected directly to the internet. never both
[08:48] <scorp123> pi3: I tried to search the forums ... but this error seems to be very common out of very different reasons :-/
[08:48] <wols_> necro: it can. but it depends what you want
[08:49] <Flannel> endo: You're lucky it doesn't work.  You don't want automatix.  What are you looking to install?
[08:49] <scorp123> pi3: on the same PC that is affected by this error Win XP and OpenSUSE 10.2 are already installed ... so it can't be the hardware.
[08:49] <krismer> hola
[08:49] <wols_> just like windows can replace ubunutu in certain applications but no all
[08:50] <god> wols_ no no no... first i tried to connect to internet using my first pc...i failed... so i installed ubuntu an the other pc...but the same problem came up :( ubuntu just doesn't want to work with internet :( i am not connecting two pc's at the same time
[08:50] <wols_> god: well you said the windows pc worked on the internet. and you sais both PCs had the same error
[08:50] <god> wols_ i can only go to internet using windows... or connecting ubuntu pc to the windows pc using wifi

[08:54] <krismer> hey dark?
[08:54] <BRPCubuntu> i just built this system wanted to see how it would be instead of getting vista
[08:54] <DarkX> yes kris?
[08:54] <Flannel> BRPCubuntu: #ubuntu-effects is the beryl/eyecandy channel, they'll set you up (check in the topic of that channel, there are howtos and such)
[08:54] <blind> Hey, I've been running fluxbox for a while, and wanted to run gnome, but when I try, it doesn't do anything. All that loads is the background, and I'm just sitting there waiting for something to happen.. any suggestions?
[08:55] <scorp123> dyrne: OK, I'm trying out that suggestion ... but so far all I get is a black screen :)
[08:55] <BRPCubuntu> flannel.. thanx.. i'll join and check it out
[08:55] <scorp123> dyrne: but never mind :)  It was worth trying :)
[08:55] <alecjw> pi3, probably sudo /etc/init.d/SERVICENAME start|stop
[08:55] <pi3> blind does your hardware support GNOME?
[08:55] <krismer> of where you are?
[08:55] <blind> pi3: yes, i used to run it.
[08:55] <colbert> Can I burn a .daa image file with any program in ubuntu ?
[08:56] <alecjw> blind, what happens if you do ping localhost ?
[08:56] <persica> blind: What about (re)moving your gnome config in your home directory and trying again?
[08:56] <pi3> blind: try #gnome
[08:56] <blind> persica: what file is that?
[08:56] <wols_> wth are all those warezkiddies using .daa to distribute their stuff now?
[08:56] <blind> alecjw: wrong person? O_o

[08:56] <alecjw> blind, nope. your loopback interface might be down. gnome doesnt work if it is
[08:56] <SinnerG> anyone know a way to backup my firefox bookmarks + saved passes and use them again @ ubuntu ?
[08:56] <god> wols_ did u give up on me ?
[08:57] <SinnerG> (aka now I'm on windows ftm)
[08:57] <pi3> is ping a service?
[08:57] <blind> alecjw: nope, pings localhost just fine.
[08:57] <bronze> Does anyone know of an application that can rip a CD into FLAC _AND_ include a log?
[08:57] <persica> blind: I believe it's the .gnome directory.
[08:57] <Gnea> pi3: no, it's a network reliability tool
[08:57] <scorp123> dyrne: ha ... selecting standard VGA resolution works :)
[08:57] <krismer> boys excuse is that I am new and much English and in addition I am not myself Venezuelan

[08:58] <krismer>  boys excuse is that I am new and much English and in addition I am not myself Venezuelan
[08:58] <pi3> Gnea: do you have any idea of how to configure it? like setting how many pings allow per minute..
[08:58] <Gnea> krismer: no problem - just take your time and ask your question.
[08:58] <Gnea> !repeat krismer
[08:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repeat krismer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:58] <blind> no luck, persica.. same exact thing happens.
[08:58] <wols_> god: give me a clear ppp log without wout ppp1 and ppp2 used. one pppd at a time for clarity
[08:58] <persica> blind: I'm thinking maybe your config is messed up or there's a weird startup item that's not set correctly anymore.
[08:58] <persica> blind: hrm.
[08:59] <Gnea> !repeat | krismer
[08:59] <wols_> also: does the same happen on windows now or not?

[08:59] <Gnea> helps if i remember the pipe
[08:59] <Flannel> SinnerG: the bookmarks are in C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox (well, eveything is, but I dont know if you'll be able to transfer saved passes).  Also, as of Feisty, there's a migration tool, that'll copy that sort of stuff over.
[08:59] <alpha> ubotu - have name of equivalent that would work?
[08:59] <wols_> and does it only happen on web pages or does it happen with, e.g. irc too?
[08:59] <persica> blind: no errors, just blank?
[08:59] <Gnea> alpha: ubotu is a bot
[08:59] <wols_> alpha: no equivalents
[08:59] <blind> just a blank screen. wallpaper's there, nautilus doesn't load, gnome-panel doesn't.. metacity doesn't..
[08:59] <alpha> oh great - feeling dumb here ....
[09:00] <persica> blind: I think you've now passed beyond my knowledge of gnome.

[09:00] <god> )
[09:00] <blind> bronze: have you checked freshmeat.org ?
[09:00] <Flannel> SinnerG: I'd back them up, then try the migration assistant.  Also, I don't know if just saving those files will work.  However, you can export them (Manage Bookmarks, Export) which will produce a file that you can later import
[09:00] <blind> errr, freshmeat.net
[09:00] <lupusbeta> how do i get the PID of a process i started through a shellscript, so that i can kill that process within the script?
[09:00] <wols_> god: hose are webpages too even if you don't see it. try irc
[09:00] <krismer> ok my question is...
[09:00] <alpha> so there is no prog thsat runs in linux that would extract a rar file correct?

[09:07] <imbecile> hi you guys! what are some things about my laptop i will need to know while configuring kismet?
[09:07] <tek-ops> I'm doing a netboot, and the kernel loads up however whether I use /dev/rd/0 or /dev/ram0 for the root= argument to the kernel, it still says cannot mount root, any ideas?
[09:07] <god7> wols_ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26771/
[09:07] <Gnea> krismer: snap, you're now on /ignore
[09:07] <gnomefreak> krismer: please drop the caps
[09:07] <CyberCod> I'm having trouble keeping feisty connected...

[09:07] <pi3> preaction: heh, wouldn't it be an inf loop "!abc is !abc"??
[09:07] <Ernz> Hi, does anyone know where I can locate the icons for the theme I am currently using, so I can mod them?
[09:07] <gnomefreak> wols_: ?
[09:07] <gnomefreak> wols_: im on it ty
[09:07] <wols_> imbecile: you need to know about the wireless card and configure it
[09:08] <S1NGH> Looking for an ubuntu moderator
[09:08] <gnomefreak> wols_: btw its !ops | message
[09:08] <god7> wols_ my nick changed from god to god7
[09:08] <kiwi_> Ernz: usually /home/yourname/.icons/
[09:08] <Pici> S1NGH: ?
[09:08] <gnomefreak> S1NGH: what can i help you with?
[09:08] <tek-ops> here is my PXE config file http://pastebin.ca/584411
[09:08] <wols_> gnomefreak: I'm a debian user and in love with dpkg. sorry :)
[09:08] <tek-ops> which is actually loading correctly
[09:08] <imbecile> wols_,  so i just need to know what kind of card then disable my connection right?
[09:08] <gnomefreak> wols_: its all good
[09:08] <Viden> this script is failing  ... what modules do i have to have to get this to compile in perl ?
[09:09] <bronze> Flannel, I assume you have grip or sound juicer. Can you see if you can get a log somehow?
[09:09] <mcquaid> i've been lazy and didn't upgrade from edgy to feisty yet, but doing so now
[09:09] <CyberCod> is anyone else having problems where the eth0 connection mysteriously turns itself on when the machine is left alone for a while?
[09:09] <wols_> imbecile: if you have a connection with it already, pretty much. what does kismet say/do (not all cards and drivers work with kismet)
[09:09] <necro> so how do i get mp3 support
[09:09] <bronze> Btw, I'm trying with grip now.
[09:09] <Flannel> bronze: no, I have neither.  I've used them in the past though.
[09:09] <mcquaid> is it correct that one should have the meta pkg ubuntu-desktop installed?
[09:09] <jrib> mcquaid: for upgrades
[09:09] <mcquaid> i see no mention of it in the upgrade guide here:
[09:09] <mcquaid> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading
[09:09] <wols_> god7: and the connectin ever stops? does it time out or what? let it time out, when pppd on its own stops working
[09:09] <CyberCod> damn.  I must be invisible

[09:09] <mcquaid> but i remember reading it in various places
[09:09] <Ernz> kiki_ - Tut - what a stupid place to put them!!! ;)
[09:10] <Pici> mcquaid: if you're running ubuntu and not kubuntu/xubuntu/etc. or if you're running ubuntu server
[09:10] <scorp123> Viden: PERL is an interpreted language ... it is not compiled, e.g. you don't get binaries in the end. .... Usually ...
[09:10] <imbecile> wols_,  i have ipw3945.... im not too sure what it says to do.. im pretty new at this stuff
[09:10] <jrib> mcquaid: I believe update-manager will take care of it or warn you... at least I hope it does
[09:10] <wols_> imbecile: paste its output in a pastebin
[09:10] <mcquaid> well i installed ubuntu but use kubuntu mainly now
[09:10] <kiwi_> Ernz: i usually move all themes and icons to /usr/share/
[09:10] <Viden> I am getting this:  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at perl.pl line 3.
[09:10] <scorp123> Viden: but PERL knows various add-ons and plugins ... could be that the program you try to run needs one of those? That would be most likely mentioned in a README somewhere somehow?
[09:10] <krismer> excuse boys is that my English is not very good and I must be translating everything what they say to me for that reason takes as much time responding me! pardon that jeje SHOUTS upps
[09:10] <god7> wols_ in firefox it just says server not found
[09:10] <mcquaid> hmm, the reason being, i removed openoffice and i believe ubuntu-desktop flags that as to be installed
[09:10] <krismer> sorry
[09:11] <Flannel> krismer: which language do you prefer?
[09:11] <mcquaid> just dealing with some space issues, i'd rather install open office after the fact
[09:11] <wols_> god7: that's not what I said. wait til pppd is timing out and not running anymore. that will produce a message too
[09:11] <Gnea> krismer: what is your native language?
[09:11] <Ernz> kiwi*_: Yea, makes sense I suppose. That is where I looked first. .icons was exactly right, thanks.
[09:11] <krismer> and in addition it costs to me to understand what they explain to me!
[09:11] <god7> wols_ when it actually works, it would some up with the message problem loading the page
[09:11] <preaction> krismer: there's probably an ubuntu support channel in your native language
[09:11] <wols_> god7: and from that I see it's the remote end that stops the connection. either modem or ISP. but a log where pppd exits on its own would tell us that

[09:12] <ReServe2> I have ubuntu 6.10 and downloaded nvidia drivers via synaptics, but the drivers where not started?
[09:12] <hwilde> hey when I login, the desktop is there, but the gnome panels are all blank. any idea what I messed up or how to fix it ?
[09:12] <hwilde> !nvidia | ReServe2
[09:12] <ubotu> ReServe2: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:12] <kiwi_> Ernz: .icons under your home folder is where the icons and themes you isntall go... but those will only affect yourself, (apps run with sudo will look ugly then...) so i cope them to /usr/share for all users to use
[09:12] <ReServe2> ok, thanks
[09:12] <god7> wols_ "where pppd exits on its own would tell us that " how do i produce that log?
[09:13] <wols_> god7: by waiting until it shows up in syslog pppd[17263] : Exit
[09:13] <god7> ok
[09:13] <Ernz> kiwi_ : I Use a theme downloaded from gnome-look, is there a way I can make this the default theme for sudo views also?
[09:13] <krismer> ah ok then I look for the page of ubuntu.es and there I look for the information that I need?
[09:13] <smultron> i'm on a 1024x768 display. Rhythmbox seems to be too big for my screen and won't shrink anymore. can this be fixed?
[09:13] <god7> gimmi a moment i ll switch internet again :)
[09:13] <wols_> god7: and when you connect, only thing you should do is "ping google.com"
[09:13] <wols_> no webbrowser or anything else
[09:13] <Flannel> krismer: use gksu
[09:13] <god7> wols_ wait i type ping google.com in teminal ?
[09:13] <wols_> yes
[09:13] <Flannel> krismer: gksu is sudo for graphical programs
[09:14] <god7> wols_ ok i ll try it now
[09:14] <Gnea> krismer: yes, type this here: /join #ubuntu-es
[09:14] <wols_> god7: wait
[09:14] <god7> wols_ yes?
[09:14] <xst> In edgy I configured the fonts size in emacs in .Xresources but this file isn't loaded in feisty. Neither are .Xdefaults. What to do?
[09:14] <wols_> open two terminals. in tone you you do a sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
[09:14] <wols_> in the other you ping google
[09:15] <krismer> good very many small thanks for the information. And they excuse to the annoyances or problems caused with respect to my language! Tendre that to learn English, no? jaja bye
[09:15] <wols_> god7: then you will see when pppd exits
[09:15] <god7> wols_ ok... i ll be back in 2-3 minutes, once i do it

[09:17] <gsteixei>  hi people
[09:17] <hwilde> what is the package for right click on desktop "Open Terminal"
[09:17] <Wanderer> 'lo
[09:17] <gsteixei> My ubuntu workstations are doing something weird, when someone sends more than one job, just the first one gets in the server, the other ones, keeps waiting util the fist is printed.
[09:17] <wols_> Wanderer: ~/.xsession
[09:18] <gsteixei>  i believe that is something with that distribution, the other ones sends every thing to the server.
[09:18] <gsteixei> does anyone knows why this is happening???
[09:18] <Wanderer> wols: not a more user friendly method than that for kde based apps?
[09:18] <krismer> ok thank you very much equal you and thanks for its patience! I someday hope to return to treat them and jaja already has knowledge of the English language a greeting from Venezuela for where they are
[09:18] <wols_> Wanderer: maybe. I dunno. maybe there is some autostart?
[09:18] <persica> Wanderer: There should be an auto-start list in the KDE control panel.
[09:18] <imbecile> wols_,  I'll give it a good look, this stuff is sort of intimidating for me
[09:18] <wols_> Wanderer: I usually only know the methods that work always. I ahte the spcific ones even when more user firendly
[09:19] <Wanderer> didn't see it, I'll look again
[09:19] <wols_> imbecile: you can destry any of your hardware unless you drop it 3 feet
[09:19] <Wanderer> yeah, nothing labeled as cuch
[09:19] <Wanderer> err, s/cu/su/g
[09:19] <DShepherd> is there any free apps that can open MS publisher files?
[09:19] <wols_> Wanderer: I'd google "kde autostart"
[09:19] <krismer> ciao is italian it is said is "chao" duro bye everybody
[09:19] <wols_> krismer: au revoir ;)
[09:19] <persica> Wandersr: You want the "Service Manager" in the kde control panel I believe (kcontrol)
[09:19] <duro> cu
[09:20] <supremesonic> anyone know where to find the netbeans icon?
[09:20] <Wanderer> googled "kde control application start"
[09:20] <Wanderer> didn't think of "autostart", lets see what that does
[09:20] <nj786> do you guys know how to open a MS IE page into linux
[09:20] <jrib> nj786: google for "ie4linux" if you need to install IE on linux
[09:20] <wols_> nj786: google IE4linux
[09:20] <nj786> basically a site that only allows IE
[09:20] <Wanderer> Dang it.  "service manager" was under the advanced tab I didn't even see
[09:21] <krismer> ok arrivederchi!!!
[09:21] <Pici> !ies4linux | nj786
[09:21] <ubotu> nj786: ies4linux is a script that quickly and effortlessly helps you install 3 versions of IE in Wine. Information can be found at http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page including instructions specifically for Ubuntu. ies4linux is aimed at web designers and ie-only sites, so please, dont use any of the IEs to navigate! Use Firefox!
[09:21] <wols_> nj786: you can also use "user-agent-switcher" extension for firefox
[09:21] <imbecile> wols_,  hehe I just always feel like i dont know where to start in command line stuff... any books or webpages you can recommend to learn?
[09:21] <nj786> wols_ can i search it in synapytic
[09:21] <nj786> ?
[09:21] <bronze> Does anyone know of an application that can rip a CD into FLAC _AND_ include a log?
[09:21] <W3ird_N3rd> hi, where can I force Ubuntu to use UDMA5/ATA100 for my harddisk?
[09:21] <Wanderer> hmm, now how to add one :>
[09:21] <persica> Wanderer: I think that's it.  I'm just running kcontrol while in fluxbox.
[09:21] <nj786> wols_ explain "user-agent-switcher
[09:22] <gsteixei> W3ird_N3rd:   try lookin on   man hdparm
[09:22] <persica> Wanderer: At the very least you can just add scripts/links in ~/.kde/Autostart.
[09:22] <capiira> haha this in funny in synaptic there is a menu entry called " Mark recommended for Installation" and i was reading "Mark(Mark Shuttlework) recommends for installation" :D hehe
[09:22] <W3ird_N3rd> gsteixei thx I'll take a look
[09:22] <mcquaid> ok, using upgrade manager for the first time. before i click upgrade, does it tell me how much space it needs to complete the upgrade?
[09:23] <gsteixei> can someone help me with a a cups issue???
[09:23] <mcquaid> running a little low on room and want to make sure I have enough
[09:23] <Wanderer> perisca: that's what I'm working on now :>
[09:23] <persica> Wanderer: I guess service manager is just for KDE modules.
[09:23] <wols_> nj786: those things are not in synaptic. user-agent-switcher is a firefox extension. addons.mozilla.org
[09:23] <Pici> capiira: what package?
[09:24] <nj786> wols_how do i get it?
[09:24] <capiira> all
[09:24] <capiira> hehe

[09:24] <capiira> default menu option when you right click
[09:24] <wols_> nj786: your firefox has an extension manager
[09:24] <capiira> i was thinking that this is a list that MArks recommend for installation
[09:24] <wols_> and i gave you the url
[09:25] <mcquaid> can anyone tell me if upgrade-manger checks for space needed before applying the updates?
[09:26] <nj786> wols_ it gave me a download curruption
[09:27] <Pici> capiira: oooh.
[09:27] <capiira> see?
[09:27] <capiira> :D

[09:28] <god> wols_ can u pls gimmi the commands again
[09:28] <wols_> which one?
[09:28] <wols_> sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog           add "| grep ppp" if you wish

[09:30] <capiira> :)
[09:31] <wols_> kazim59: worth
[09:31] <puff_> gsteixei: Generally speaking, the open end is the top. You want to keep it vertical until you're ready to drink.  But make sure it's at your mouth before you start tipping it.
[09:31] <Music_Shuffle> puff_, you forgot to mention that you should make sure to stop for breath occasionally, its a bad way to go.
[09:32] <puff_> gsteixei: Just kidding... I had a bad experience with CUPS on debian, several years ago, haven't been back to it.  I should try it out though.

[09:40] <_peerless>  hey, I am trying to install xubuntu from a usb drive (on a laptop that doesnt have a cdrom drive).  I made the stick bootable using syslinux.  I copied over the alternate cdrom iso to the stick, renamed isolinux folder and .bin and .cfg to syslinux.  Booted up, started the install. I get to the point where it tries to detect cdrom, cant.  I go to a shell and try to mount the usb as cdrom, but I am stuck at this step.  If I check the syslog when plugging in
[09:41] <nj786> wols_ no i havnt sorry
[09:41] <wols_> finalbeta: freenx

[09:43] <DELUDE> Help: I updated to 7.04 from the update manager and the system halted at "6 min left", now it gets stuck at X login (before i login)
[09:43] <wols_> nj786: you search for the extension there
[09:43] <finalbeta> Gnea: yep :P
[09:44] <Gnea> finalbeta: so what's wrong with vnc?
[09:44] <gnomefreak> Tikka: what is the command?
[09:44] <imbecile> wols_,  where is the conf file for kismet again?

[09:45] <wols_> nj786: no category. use the search
[09:46] <gnomefreak> ryan__: did you look in system>admin>printer
[09:46] <finalbeta> Gnea: It's much slower then rdp, refreshes take more resources. Often when going into a network, I have one terminal server, from which I can take over other boxes. I terminal into work, terminal to the ts from some company, from that box I start a terminal session to the adc or whatever. Doing that with VNC is impossible.

[10:03] <wols_> crabgrass: have you done what I told you?
[10:03] <soundray> alexnick: click on the right upper X and wait for gnome to offer to kill it for you.
[10:03] <wols_> shishirjh: what chipset?
[10:03] <finalbeta> Gnea: the rdp client that comes with ubuntu ain't 100% ok. But it should work.
[10:03] <gnomefreak> wols_: btw ndisgtk is the gui to ndiswrapper
[10:03] <wols_> alexnick: man kill
[10:04] <Gnea> finalbeta: i'm actually trying this from a debian system
[10:04] <crabgrass> wols_: "dpkg zombie" in term returns "dpkg: need an action option"

[10:08] <dpomp> wols, are you familiar with ndiswrapper?
[10:08] <ahorner> whats the package command for evny
[10:08] <ahorner> well i mean the last part
[10:08] <crabgrass> !envy
[10:08] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:08] <ahorner> ..
[10:08] <ahorner> duh
[10:08] <gnomefreak> ahorner: dont use envy
[10:08] <crabgrass> !worksforme
[10:08] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). 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.
[10:08] <ahorner> well im not usin that other piece of crap
[10:08] <god> wols_ it says modem adsl on it...it can't be the router :(
[10:08] <fred__> corp123: only thing i see on port 80 is firefox
[10:09] <ahorner> everybody i talked to before said they had problems wit it
[10:09] <gnomefreak> ahorner: use the restricted-manager
[10:09] <ahorner> hell no
[10:09] <god> wols: i have to put it in manually in windows when i log in to internet
[10:09] <ahorner> wow
[10:09] <soundray> Asauce: have you configured a proxy?
[10:09] <wols_> dpomp: familiar enough that I know it doesn't depend on X
[10:09] <scorp123> fred__: sudo netstat -ln
[10:09] <ahorner> god people somebody give me the packagename or link to envy please
[10:09] <wols_> god: what device is it? what model/brand?
[10:10] <nickrud> god, try pointing your browser at <IP_ADDRESS> ; if it's like most of the asdl modems or routers I've used, you can set up it up from there
[10:10] <ahorner> not to be rusde.
[10:10] <ahorner> or <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:10] <wols_> nickrud: it's <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:10] <gnomefreak> ahorner: join #ubuntu-offtopic for unsupported help
[10:10] <ahorner> ya
[10:10] <ahorner> ok..
[10:10] <fred__> corp: what am i looking for here
[10:10] <fred__> ?
[10:10] <dpomp> wols, when i do ndiswrapper -a net5211, it says where 'devid' is either PCIDD or USBID of the form XXXX:XXXX, as reported by 'lspci -n' or 'lsub' for the card, so how do i add my wireless card in xterm?
[10:10] <wols_> !envy | ahorner
[10:10] <ubotu> ahorner: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:10] <god> d-link dsl-302t
[10:10] <scorp123> fred__: check the upper half of the output if there is anything saying "<IP_ADDRESS>: 80"
[10:10] <nickrud> wols_, not mine, well true I've only used a half dozen or so, but they all were 0.1
[10:10] <ahorner> ...
[10:10] <wols_> dpomp:  find out the pci id or usb id
[10:10] <Gnea> finalbeta: hrm, i almost have it working...
[10:11] <dpomp> how?
[10:11] <god> wols_d-link dsl-302t
[10:11] <wols_> nickrud: mine is .2.1 even and mayn are 1.1
[10:11] <DemisM> anyone use nm-applet?
[10:11] <fred__> corp: nothing on port 80 there
[10:11] <Gnea> finalbeta: xrdp runs on the remote ubuntu system, tsclient will connect to it and ask for a user/pass
[10:11] <nickrud> wols_, but the key is to heck with anything but setting up the modem directly
[10:11] <gnomefreak> dpomp: try lspci
[10:12] <ahorner> anybody know why when ii install feisty on my emachines w3502, it wont recognize it as a boot disk
[10:12] <Gnea> finalbeta: looks like it works just fine, not entirely sure how to get it going from there tho
[10:12] <finalbeta> Gnea: great, you got it working then? Or the password you input is not accepted?
[10:12] <dpomp> infront of the card name is 02:02.0
[10:12] <dpomp> is that it?
[10:13] <Gnea> finalbeta: well i put in password and it recycles back to the user/pass screen
[10:13] <soundray> ahorner: probably something went wrong at the grub stage. Follow the Recovering... instructions from ubotu:
[10:13] <soundray> !grub | ahorner
[10:13] <ubotu> ahorner: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:13] <gnomefreak> ahorner: your bios are not set to boot from cd
[10:13] <wols_> god: look on your manual on page 16. or look at page 16 here: http://dlink-me.com/ftp/modems/DSL-302T/DSL302T_Manual_2_00.pdf
[10:13] <finalbeta> Gnea: don't know how that rdp client is bound to the system, in windows it just takes the user to the logon screen. And you start a normal session from there. In linux it can't be that easy, so I don't know, you probably need to set some options as to how you want it working.
[10:14] <Gnea> finalbeta: oh wait, i just had to wait.. holy ****, it works!
[10:14] <ahorner> gnome.
[10:14] <Gnea> it just loaded E
[10:14] <ahorner> i already installed it
[10:14] <wols_> god: you remove ALL ppp stuff and then use a browser to connect to http://<IP_ADDRESS> and there you configure it
[10:14] <Gnea> finalbeta: oh... it's that easy
[10:14] <ahorner> im not retarded, i know how set it to boot fomr the hd
[10:14] <GizDrak-Server> Anyone know anything about netatalk and users. I can get only 1 out of my 3 accounts to login to the netatalk volumes. but there seems to be nothing wrong with the accounts.
[10:14] <DemisM> in nm-applet if i change it to manual config how cna i change it back? Now when i left click i don't get a list of networks like before or anything similar, any ideas?
[10:14] <finalbeta> Gnea: nice, I hope it's as fast as on windows, it's also encrypted.
[10:14] <wols_> god: you enter usename password there on the modem and let it connect
[10:14] <ahorner> but it thinks theres nothing on the hd to boot fromn
[10:14] <Gnea> finalbeta: yeah, this is MUCH better than vnc... wow
[10:15] <capiira> hmmm what is a good secure trustful ftp server with lot of features?
[10:15] <soundray> ahorner: did you get mine and ubotu's messages?
[10:15] <ahorner> no
[10:15] <Tremitos> you tell me ;)
[10:15] <shut-> can i make it so ubuntu and windows are installeD?
[10:15] <soundray> ahorner: probably something went wrong at the grub stage. Follow the Recovering... instructions from ubotu:

[10:15] <ahorner> i just put 6.1 on and ill upgrade in a bit
[10:15] <ahorner> im using it now.
[10:15] <simpleH> Hi, my startup is hanging for a few minutes at configuring network interfaces, what should I do?
[10:15] <slowfast> I boot into Kubuntu.  However, when I log out and log into a new gnome session, the window do not have any title bars.  When I attempt to execute a gnome program, e.g., gdmflexiserver, the error message "GDM (The GNOME Display Manager) is not running"  How can I fix this?
[10:15] <dpomp> wols_, this is what i get is lspci, 02:02.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
[10:15] <dpomp> whats the ID?
[10:15] <Gnea> finalbeta: hrm, i can't move windows around in it... weird
[10:16] <god> wols_ ok thank you...it is just that i had tu use a software packeage for pc
[10:16] <god> wols_ thanks a lot
[10:16] <livingdaylight> i've installed Democracy through Synaptic but i can't find it anywhere in my Applications Menu... anone got any ideas?
[10:16] <god> u r the best :)
[10:16] <god> good bie
[10:16] <wols_> god: if you do that you shouldn't need a software package anymore
[10:16] <EI-GrAd> Hello!... Is there anybody wrote drivers? sorry for my english... Need to make up webcam on Acer... not by Logitech... by ALi... it seems to be there is no driver for it...
[10:17] <ahorner> uhh
[10:17] <ahorner> www.acer.com
[10:17] <wols_> EI-GrAd: unlikely you find a usb webcma driver programmer here. very unlikely
[10:17] <finalbeta> Gnea: if you have a vnc server running at the same time, it might give problems.
[10:17] <EI-GrAd> no intresting there
[10:17] <nickrud> livingdaylight, dpkg -L <packagename> | grep bin ; that will tell you the executables in the package, and you can then add it to the menu
[10:17] <ahorner> el-grad if it came with your machine, go to acer's site and download the driers there
[10:17] <ahorner> drivers*
[10:18] <fr3ddy> anyone know how to boot a laptop from network plz ?
[10:18] <dpomp> how do i get the pic id?
[10:18] <imbecile> can someone tell me how to change sources in kismet for ipw3945?  im not sure what im doing.. here is the line i need   "source=none,none,addme" what does this mean?
[10:18] <Gnea> finalbeta: oh wait, i just had to tell tsclient to let it use window manager borders - works now
[10:19] <Gnea> finalbeta: this is pretty nice. so what was the problem?
[10:19] <finalbeta> Gnea: no problem, just asked if anyone had tried it. I'll probably install it myself now. Since I dislike VNC so much.
[10:19] <HariYukai> Hey, um, I need a little help here please.

[10:20] <HariYukai> Can someone tell me where I'm supposed to put this?:  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)
[10:21] <livingdaylight> nickrud, thx
[10:21] <HariYukai> Ohhhhh!

[10:21] <EI-GrAd>  soundray, yes... it listed as  "Bus 005 Device 007: ID 0402:5602 ALi Corp. "
[10:21] <HariYukai> But anyways, sorry for the flood.
[10:21] <wols_> 2doesn't do" is no error message
[10:21] <finalbeta> Gnea, I'll try right now then.
[10:21] <simpleH> wols_: it takes like a minute to get past that stage at bootup...there isn't an ethernet cable plugged in, I'm just using wireless
[10:21] <fred__> ok when i run that command ... nothing happens
[10:21] <fred__> just returns to prompt
[10:21] <dennis__> have an  issue with USB stick sandisk cruzer  4 gig
[10:21] <Gnea> oh WOW, the wireless epplet is actually *working*
[10:21] <HariYukai> But anwyays, about said text; Where am I supposed to put it in Ubuntu?
[10:22] <fred__> when i type in http://localhost   .... nothing there either
[10:22] <nickrud> livingdaylight, yw
[10:22] <wols_> fred__: I asked you to run a command some time ago. do that
[10:22] <fred__> i did
[10:22] <ahorner> dennis i have the same flash dirve :) i love it
[10:22] <wols_> HariYukai: man interfaces. but it looks like dhcp to me, so no need
[10:22] <dennis__> ehhm it fails to mount  properly ..
[10:22] <HariYukai> Main interfaces? Dhcp?
[10:22] <HariYukai> Well, okies.
[10:22] <wols_> fred__: then there are error logs. look at them
[10:22] <ahorner> umm
[10:22] <HariYukai> I'll try it.
[10:22] <nickrud> imbecile, something like ipw3945,eth0,Ilikethisname
[10:22] <ahorner> do sudo fdisk -l
[10:22] <ahorner> thats an L
[10:23] <ahorner> lol
[10:23] <imbecile> nickrud,  ty
[10:23] <wols_> ahorner: what card? and is the interface listed when you do /sbin/ifconfig -a ?
[10:23] <dennis__> ehm  tried that   first  sudo su  got #  tried then fdisk -l  .. it hangs
[10:23] <ahorner> wols what are you talking about
[10:23] <soundray> EI-GrAd: it seems that there is no mature driver at present. Have a look at this article: http://mediakey.dk/~cc/bisoncam-ali-m5603c-linux-driver-round-up/
[10:23] <dennis__> cheers
[10:24] <ahorner> hmm
[10:24] <ahorner> is it possible for you to format it on a different computer?
[10:24] <wols_> ahorner: nothing. he's gone
[10:24] <ahorner> oh
[10:24] <fred__> wols: where are these apache error logs located at?
[10:24] <alexnick> I'm having some problems with Synaptic.

[10:24] <livingdaylight> nickrud, dpkg -L democracy  | grep bin             and it says that it is not installed; i tried with capital D too but that produced the same result, yet i clearly installed it with synaptic?! :o
[10:25] <alexnick> I tried running 'dpkg --configure -a' but it says I need a superuser priviledge.
[10:25] <dennis__> I'll try that ..   not to worry  cheers
[10:25] <simpleH> how would I lower the priority of networking in the boot process? so it doesn't hang at "configuring network interfaces" for 3 minutes or so?

[10:25] <wols_> simpleH: you don't. you remove the auto eth0 from /etc/network/interfaces

[10:27] <fred__> im just trying to get this resolved, read tons of how tos, and all through the ubuntu boards
[10:27] <livingdaylight> wols_, thanks again... but it still doesn't tell me where it is or how i can launch it

[10:29] <wols_> !envy | ahorner
[10:29] <PIPBoy_> oh actually, can anyone tell me what the difference between kde and gnome is? like is one better than the other?
[10:29] <ubotu> ahorner: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:29] <simpleH> wols_: remove "auto eth0" and nothing else from /etc/network/interfaces ?
[10:29] <nickrud> livingdaylight, if it showed as installed, add the | grep bin.
[10:29] <wols_> simpleH: yes
[10:29] <simpleH> alright, thanks
[10:29] <wols_> PIPBoy_: it's just different. and people love choice
[10:29] <darwin81> My cursor keeps randomly disappearing in Firefox.
[10:30] <soundray> PIPBoy_: it's a matter of taste. KDE generally leaves you more choices, while gnome is not as easy to mess up.
[10:30] <jrib> PIPBoy_: try both and see what you like (you can install both and choose at login)
[10:30] <wols_> livingdaylight: I am waiting
[10:30] <Geoffrey2> nickrud, I instlled libdvdcss2, when I go to play the DVD, I get a message...Totem could not play 'dvd:/'.   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)

[10:33] <carajea1> yes it is mounted
[10:33] <carajea1> i can see it and access the files i just need to copy to it
[10:33] <kaktuskatta> wols_: any idea?
[10:33] <Geoffrey2> nickrud, totem-xine is the version I have installed
[10:33] <Blissex> ack: lots, quite professional ones. There are a number of ''audio and GNU/Linux'' sites out there...
[10:33] <carajea1> and it wont let me
[10:33] <Blissex> acke: lots, quite professional ones. There are a number of ''audio and GNU/Linux'' sites out there...

[10:34] <Tikka> gnomefreak, sorry for delayed reply http://rafb.net/p/AXaNmf73.html
[10:34] <wols_> kaktuskatta: where do you expect to get 0.1.5 from?
[10:34] <nickrud> Geoffrey2, how'd you install the libdvdcss?
[10:34] <ahorner> in my pants
[10:34] <Tikka> anyone know why grep and cat would play up, claiming an invalid parameter.. such as.. cat * will claim that -a was used. grep also errors with a different parameter. http://rafb.net/p/AXaNmf73.html
[10:34] <Blissex> acke: look at this list of audio software: http://demudi.agnula.info/wiki/DocumentsSoftware
[10:34] <kaktuskatta> wols_: I have already installed that manually through the gnomad oages
[10:34] <kaktuskatta> wols_: pages*
[10:34] <acke> blissex youve got some application names for me to take down on paper? hould you help me get a list or something?
[10:34] <Blissex> Tikka: that's pretty obvious.
[10:35] <acke> Blissex: ooh ill look there
[10:35] <wols_> kaktuskatta: why and how?
[10:35] <soundray> carajea1: what's the mountpoint?
[10:35] <Tikka> Blissex, yea?
[10:35] <kaktuskatta> wols_: http://gnomad2.sourceforge.net/
[10:35] <wols_> kaktuskatta: and how?
[10:35] <Blissex> acke: you got some files with names beginning with "-".
[10:35] <kaktuskatta> wols_: That was the recommended software for my player
[10:35] <Geoffrey2> nickrud, through Synaptic
[10:35] <livingdaylight> wols_, at last ^^ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26796/ and now i create launcher with path pointing to /usr/bin ?
[10:35] <wols_> !info gnomad
[10:35] <ubotu> Package gnomad does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[10:36] <Tikka> Blissex, http://rafb.net/p/7fYJaC74.html different install
[10:36] <wols_> livingdaylight: sure. whever it is
[10:36] <kaktuskatta> They also recommended me to upgrade to the latest version since 0.1.3 doesn't work with Gnomad
[10:36] <nickrud> Geoffrey2, you added a repo for that then
[10:36] <Blissex> Tikka: just write "./*" instead of just "*", and miracles will happen.
[10:36] <kaktuskatta> wols_: manual installation from source
[10:36] <Geoffrey2> nickrud, yes
[10:36] <livingdaylight> wols_, is this my line? /usr/bin/democracyplayer.real
[10:37] <wols_> livingdaylight: probably. never run it. jsut try it in a xterm

[10:37] <doobeh> Is it possible to install Ubuntu from the shell, or do you have to go via the GUI?
[10:37] <Tikka> Blissex, thats the first time its happened to me. thanks for solving :)
[10:37] <wols_> doobeh: alternate install de. or when it's installed, use aptitude to install stuff
[10:37] <wols_> all on the CLI
[10:37] <Geoffrey2> nickrud, it's libdvdcss2 from the mediabuntu repository
[10:37] <carajea1> sda2
[10:37] <livingdaylight> wolki, xterm = konsole?
[10:38] <Blissex> Tikka: the big point here is that "*" is expanded _before_ the command is run, which is different from other operating systems and shells.
[10:38] <mike3_> Is the linux kernel under Ubuntu compiled to have every single module enabled? The udev to detect all necessary modules to auto load?
[10:38] <wols_> livingdaylight: sure. anything that's your xterm
[10:38] <carajea1> here is another small question i dowloaded a dvd iso how do i burn it in linux???
[10:38] <nickrud> Geoffrey2, huh. I just realized I haven't installed dvdcss on this machine. A few secs
[10:38] <wols_> mike3_: mostly yes. sorta
[10:38] <wols_> mike3_: but some hardware needs special firmware for example
[10:38] <mike3_> wols_, what do you mean sorta?
[10:38] <scorp123> carajea1: k3b
[10:38] <wols_> carajea1: k3b, gnomebaker
[10:38] <doobeh> wols, what's de. short for? :)
[10:39] <mike3_> well some hardware isn't supported. I know that
[10:39] <wols_> mike3_: that not all can be included in a immediately working way
[10:39] <doobeh> "alternate install de." could you explain that a little more? :)
[10:39] <Tikka> Blissex, yea i understand that. although cat and grep can normally take multiple filenames so why did it not work properly that time ?
[10:39] <carajea1> now it has to be bootable
[10:39] <wols_> doobeh: de = CD. typo
[10:39] <Blissex> Tikka: because some files have names beginning with "-".
[10:39] <mike3_> wols_, what?
[10:39] <wols_> carajea1: doesn#t matter. just burn it as image
[10:39] <carajea1> which is better or should i say easier
[10:39] <doobeh> Ahh, okay, alternate cd.  Brilliant, thanks wols
[10:39] <soundray> carajea1: what about your other question? You stopped replying to me.
[10:39] <Tikka> Blissex, ahhhh damn it! hah. ok thanks lol.
[10:40] <carajea1> i followed the ubuntu fiesty guide and it seems easy just write click and hit write
[10:40] <Tikka> Blissex, much appreciated :D
[10:40] <wols_> mike3_: I already answered you
[10:40] <Blissex> Tikka: so if you say "./*" they no longer begin with a "-"....
[10:40] <carajea1> but i do need to get that other drive mounted so i can save some stuff to it
[10:40] <mike3_> wols_, Does udev do the auto detecting?
[10:40] <carajea1> its is sda2
[10:40] <wols_> mike3_: usually yes
[10:40] <Tikka> Blissex, yea i can see what you mean now. makes total sense.
[10:40] <mike3_> usually? What would be the alternative then?
[10:41] <scorp123> mike3_: prayers? :)
[10:41] <carajea1> its /media/Storage is the full name
[10:41] <wols_> mike3_: do your question lead to something ubuntu specific?
[10:41] <acke> blissex starting with "-" ?
[10:41] <kaktuskatta> wols_: For some reason I managed to get it to work by adding and removing libmtp 0.1.3 once more

[10:42] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[10:42] <ubotu> ryan__: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:43] <ryan__> so it doesnt come standard?
[10:43] <mike3_> wols_, No I am new to Ubuntu and I just have some questions
[10:44] <scorp123> ryan__: NTFS is a Microsoft thing ...

[10:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about drupal - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:44] <ryan__> lol yes thanks scorp for the obvious
[10:45] <ryan__> I have a dual boot system
[10:45] <ryan__> with xp
[10:45] <hosk> so occasionally my system will hang for a half second and the last letter i typed will turn into about 166666666, i mean 8, is there a way to fix that
[10:45] <ryan__> Im just moving files from the windows partition
[10:45] <A[D] minS> Guys
[10:45] <A[D] minS> i installed drupal
[10:45] <A[D] minS> but to be honest i duno where it installed
[10:45] <Tikka> A[D] minS why?
[10:45] <Tikka> ;p
[10:45] <A[D] minS> or where i should fined the files
[10:46] <Asauce> I have this weird problem... I manually configured my wireless card, and I can now browse the net and IM just fine, but the downloading updates and packages doesn't work.
[10:46] <W3ird_N3rd> is it normal for Kaffeine to take 20 seconds to start, and 12 seconds for firefox?
[10:46] <TaJMoX> asauce try sudo apt-get update
[10:46] <ndee> not really an ubuntu question but how would you search for sounds of rain on google?
[10:47] <TaJMoX> ndee : rain filetype:wav

[10:47] <Asauce> "apt-get update" it won't connect.
[10:48] <HariYukai> Sorry to sound dumb, but where's the "Main interfaces"?
[10:48] <Flannel> Asauce: what errors does it give?
[10:48] <darwin81> Azureus is still crashing when it starts for me.
[10:48] <acke> Blissex: guess not
[10:48] <kanpachi> hello, i'm using feisty, and i installed the nvidia driver via the envy script, and it feels abit sluggish, esp when using rhytmbox with epiphany, what do i do please?
[10:48] <Asauce> "Cannot resolve securty.ubuntu.com" or something to that extent.
[10:49] <ryan__> do you ever need to defrag in ubuntu?
[10:49] <carajea1> ok this is crazy i cant boot to any disk cause of an unclean logfile
[10:49] <wols_> !envy | kanpachi
[10:49] <ubotu> kanpachi: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:49] <carajea1> im getting really angry
[10:49] <carajea1> all i need to do is save wow
[10:49] <wols_> ryan__: not really. there are some corner cases but they are very rare
[10:49] <PIPBoy_> yeah id like to know if you ever have to defrag ubuntu also
[10:49] <Littlebob> when installing ubuntu with windows on another partition will the installer set it up to dual boot?
[10:49] <kanpachi> is there any way back? i mean, will it be ok if i uninstall it now?
[10:49] <ryan__> ok excellent
[10:49] <wols_> Littlebob: yes
[10:50] <ryan__> is a swap file necessary for regular every computing use?
[10:50] <wols_> kanpachi: don't ask us. ask envy
[10:50] <Littlebob> wols_: thanks
[10:50] <ryan__> everday**
[10:50] <Bassetts> is there a guide to doing a dist upgrade?
[10:50] <W3ird_N3rd> is it normal for firefox to take 12 seconds to start after a cold boot?
[10:50] <wols_> ryan__: it's recommended. doesn't have to be big
[10:50] <PIPBoy_> do you ever have to defrag ubuntu?
[10:50] <Flannel> !upgrade | Bassetts
[10:50] <ubotu> Bassetts: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:50] <Bassetts> thanks Flannel
[10:50] <Tikka> W3ird_N3rd: using any addons ?
[10:50] <dyrne> PIPBoy_: answer to defrag is no. the file system is sort of 'self correcting'
[10:50] <ryan__> ok I made one but it didnt work out during the installation
[10:50] <ryan__> so I skipped it
[10:50] <wols_> dyrne: to a degree, yes
[10:50] <W3ird_N3rd> Tikka: all applications load slowly. Kaffeine takes 20 seconds
[10:50] <HariYukai> ...Help me someone? Please? ^^;;
[10:50] <ryan__> is there anyway to add one after the fact?
[10:51] <wols_> ryan__: you can later use a swap file
[10:51] <W3ird_N3rd> Wine takes 8 seconds
[10:51] <wols_> ryan__: there is. but manually. or a swap fil
[10:51] <wols_> file
[10:51] <ryan__> ok is there any guides to adding one after you installed ubuntu
[10:51] <Asauce> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=419709 That's the guide I used, and as I said.. it half works.
[10:51] <Tikka> W3ird_N3rd: maybe hdparm may help
[10:51] <Tikka> W3ird_N3rd, that or prelinking
[10:51] <wols_> W3ird_N3rd: dmesg|grep dma
[10:51] <wols_> W3ird_N3rd: dmesg|grep -i dma
[10:51] <W3ird_N3rd> harddisk seems ok
[10:51] <Flannel> !swap | ryan__
[10:51] <ubotu> ryan__: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[10:52] <wols_> W3ird_N3rd: hdparm -tT /dev/sda (or /dev/hda). what speeds do you get?
[10:52] <ryan__> what does !swap Ryan mean?
[10:52] <ryan__> lol
[10:52] <htraki> hi,everyone
[10:52] <wols_> ryan__: it's a command for ubotu as you can see

[10:54] <ryan__> good god people
[10:54] <ryan__> heh
[10:54] <ryan__> simple questions
[10:54] <supremesonic> wols_ he said he didn't wanna talk :(

[10:55] <Kaitlyn2004> I have no idea where I would ask this question.. .so I'll ask here :). I am trying my motherboard out of a case... how do I turn it on? :)
[10:55] <wols_> W3ird_N3rd: then it's possible
[10:55] <wols_> notebook drives are slow
[10:55] <W3ird_N3rd> yes, but 12 seconds for firefox and 20 for kaffeine?
[10:55] <wols_> Kaitlyn2004: #hardware
[10:55] <asherZ> anyone know how to get main menu config editor in system.. preferences working again??
[10:56] <wols_> W3ird_N3rd: low RAM?
[10:56] <W3ird_N3rd> 1GB PC3200
[10:56] <ryan__> interestingly I made a swap file with more than 2 gigs
[10:56] <HariYukai> So, um...
[10:56] <HariYukai> Where's the "Main interfaces" located on Ubuntu?
[10:56] <ryan__> in gparted and then when I went to install ubuntu it didnt recognize the swap file as bigger than 1 kb
[10:56] <soundray> HariYukai: System-Administration-Network
[10:56] <doobeh> Kaitlyn2004: you need to create a connection between the jumpers used on the power switch
[10:56] <doobeh> that's all your power button does
[10:56] <ryan__> I even reformated it in ubuntu as a swap during the installation
[10:56] <nickrud> asherZ, try running alacarte in a terminal (that's what's run by the menu item)
[10:56] <HariYukai> Alright, thanks! ^_^
[10:56] <wols_> ryan__: you make a swapfile with ubuntu you can't do it outside
[10:57] <wols_> and you need ro format it too. mkfs.swap for example
[10:57] <asherZ> nickrud~ thx ill try it now
[10:57] <ryan__> I made it with gparted
[10:57] <W3ird_N3rd> any other ideas wols_?
[10:57] <ryan__> a swap file partition
[10:58] <soundray> W3ird_N3rd: run 'top' in a terminal to see if something is hogging the CPU
[10:58] <W3ird_N3rd> nope
[10:58] <asherZ> nickrud, it gave me importerror: no module name Alacarte.MainWindow
[10:59] <frandavid100> hi guys
[10:59] <W3ird_N3rd> vino-server takes some CPU time, but live it's just as slow.
[10:59] <frandavid100> where are packages downloaded through synaptic stored?
[10:59] <teamwork> W3ird_N3rd, wols_ , localhost not set up correctly, perhaps?
[10:59] <soundray> W3ird_N3rd: if you exit firefox and start it again, does it come up quick?
[10:59] <W3ird_N3rd> yes when I do that it's very quick
[10:59] <nickrud> asherZ, try sudo aptitude reinstall alacarte
[11:00] <asherZ> nickrud, ok thanks 1 sec
