[21:42] <white_eagle> my computer detects 1 other monitor, and i don't have any other monitor connected to my pc, oand I want to remove it permamently from my configuration, here is my xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63111/
[21:42] <apexcol> I have a 1Gb Realtek lan card but it only has a 100 mbps setting, how can I fix it to 1Gb?
[21:42] <Orbixx> Jack_Sparrow: How could I possibly tweak it, and get drivers from nVidia when I can't even boot?
[21:42] <fbc> How do you make 'shares-admin' ask you what network services you'd like to install?
[21:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbixx, We try to get people to run 32bit until they become familiar with ubuntu before going 64..
[21:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbixx, vesa mode...
[21:43] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: so would he still have this issue in 32bit?
[21:43] <Orbixx> Jack_Sparrow: I administer Linux servers.
[21:43] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[21:43] <Orbixx> I've never used Linux as a destkop OS.
[21:43] <DJones> IndyGunFreak: re Orbixx i wonder whether the problem is the 8800gtx graphics, I thought I'd seen mention here that it was a difficult card to get set up
[21:43] <Jack_Sparrow> IndyGunFreak, yes
[21:43] <pharoh> hey if i develop all my apps in linux...will they work on windows?say i make all my C,python and all programs using ubuntu.will they work?
[21:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbixx, are you trying to boot the livecd?
[21:43] <Orbixx> Yes.
[21:43] <IndyGunFreak> DJones: i seem to remember that also.
[21:43] <murlidhar> sachael, lm-batmon       ibam
[21:43] <apexcol> I have a 1Gb Realtek lan card but it only has a 100 mbps setting, how can I fix it to 1Gb?
[21:43] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate | Orbixx
[21:43] <ubotu> Orbixx: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD.  Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal
[21:44] <unop> pharoh, it really depends on whether you program around platform specifics
[21:44] <sachael> murlidhar, thank you! I will check them out.
[21:44] <nickrud> pharoh if you use os agnostic functions, mostly
[21:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbixx, one sec..
[21:44] <Orbixx> Thanks IndyGunFreak.
[21:44] <dma315> Hey, I have a serious problem with my network manager, it does not display wireless, wired, or anything and I can't get onto the inernet
[21:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbixx, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[21:44] <stefg> apexcol: usually the NIC configures itself depending on what speed the port on the other side of the cable supports. so i'd guess the router is only 100 mbps.
[21:44] <bluefoxx> are there any daap capable programs for win98?itunes is null and winamp doesnt install at all
[21:44] <Itaku> is anyone good woth vmware workstation?
[21:44] <Itaku> cuz i need help with it
[21:45]  * Orbixx notes all this down.
[21:45] <unop> pharoh, python scripts can be run on both linux and windows (and whatever else) but python scripts that require linux files, libraries, etc won't work on windows
[21:45] <Orbixx> Much obliged fellas.
[21:45] <Orbixx> I'll try your suggestions out.
[21:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbixx, I have a bigger list of command line options for troublesome hardware if you want it
[21:45] <pharoh> unop: okay, in this world we live in,most pipo use windows,would someone make it in the IT industry if he were full time linux user?
[21:46] <RAdams> murlidhar: grub created a boot/grub inside /boot, because /boot is it's own partition. it did that because I kept referencing /boot/* instead of just /
[21:46] <Orbixx> Jack_Sparrow: I'd love to have it, thanks.
[21:46] <RAdams> murlidhar: it works now
[21:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbixx, noapic acpi=off, pci=irqroute, xmodule=vesa, vga=normal, vga=771, vga=791, pci=irqroute, framebuffer=false, ide=nodma, nomce, pnpbios=off, xdrvr=vesa, res=800x600, apm=off,pci=noapci, nolapic, all_generic_ide, nolapic, pci=assign-busses, pci=irqpoll, pci=biosirq, pnpbios=off, hpet=disable
[21:46] <RAdams> murlidhar: thanks for your help
[21:46] <LstHorizon22> what does the phrase "during call tear-down" mean?
[21:46] <murlidhar> RAdams, good to hear that it works
[21:46] <unop> pharoh, it depends if you wanted to get into the parts of the industry that incorporate linux into their infrastructures or not -- and plenty of them do
[21:46] <dma315> Hey, I have a serious problem with my network manager, it does not display wireless, wired, or anything and I can't get onto the internet
[21:46] <bluefoxx> anything?
[21:47] <AzaTht> I've problem getting my huawei e220 to work all the time; anyone that might have some ideas how to solve it?
[21:47] <pharoh> unop: oh..whew!well then i guess its gudbye windows for me:)
[21:47] <bluefoxx> anyone know of a daap music player for win98? other than itunes or winamp, which i cant use
[21:48] <benanzo> win98
[21:48] <benanzo> wow
[21:48] <Orbixx> For Windows 98?
[21:48] <Orbixx> You're asking that in #ubuntu?
[21:48] <stefg> bluefoxx: win support is next door
[21:48] <dma315> Can anybody help?
[21:48] <bluefoxx> yes win98. i made a gaming box -. -
[21:48] <Orbixx> What?
[21:48] <benanzo> But even they won't support Win98
[21:48] <unop> pharoh, if you were looking to make a career move - i'd say it'd be wise to learn the more popular technologies for the forseeable future (and continue to do so as long as you were in the industry) and not depend on one particular technology to be dominant always - that'd be foolish
[21:48] <AzaTht> bluefoxx: probably wrong channel
[21:48] <Orbixx> No one supports w98.
[21:48] <Jack_Sparrow> dma315, Provide your network hardware info to get a better response to your questions
[21:49] <ubutom> bluefoxx: vlc
[21:49] <Orbixx> Jack_Sparrow: Much obliged for the help, mate.
[21:49] <AzaTht> anyone has an huawei e220 and made it work?
[21:49] <Jack_Sparrow> np.. let me know if it does or does not work.. feedback helps all of us
[21:49] <dma315> I don't think its a hardware problem, it worked 20 minutes ago
[21:49] <Orbixx> Will do.
[21:49] <bluefoxx> ubutom: there a guid on it? i tried using it to stream music from one pc to another
[21:49] <fbc> How do you make 'shares-admin' ask you what network services you'd like to install?
[21:49] <nickrud> Dang Jack_Sparrow thats a long list
[21:50] <dma315> The only thing I did different was roll back my xorg file and reboot, which should have nothing to do with my internet connection
[21:50] <fbc> Is there anyone here good with ubuntu networking?
[21:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Howdy Nickrud...  My vacation was awesome
[21:50] <pharoh> unop: the more popular being....?coz the way i see it,with the announcement that linux is unhackable,plus the open source software privilages,i think it'll dominate pretty soon.
[21:50] <ubutom> vlc has a gui, yes, or do you mean guide? bluefoxx
[21:50] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow good to hear
[21:50] <unop> fbc, the only two services i know that shares-admin controls are nfs and samba .. and it should warn you if you were trying to enable a samba share and samba wasn't installed - nfs is almost always available
[21:51] <bluefoxx> ubotum: i mean a guide on connecting to a daap network music sjare with vlc. i can stream videos, but music doesnt work >. >
[21:51] <dmsuperman> why is it that some of my apps keep turning to this mode where there's just a tiny little square window open with the app's icon in it, and that hides and show the main window? the little window gets annoying. so far, it's only been apps that minimize/close to systray
[21:51] <fbc> unop, Yeah, but I deselected vfs the first time I ran it,,, how do I go back and check it off??
[21:51] <fbc> unop, I meant nfs
[21:52] <unop> pharoh, i wouldn't like to make predictions about the position of linux in 5 years - yes, it's getting to be quite popular, but will it take up a significant percentage of the market then only remains to be seen.
[21:52] <fbc> unop, I tried going to synaptic and ununstalling samba and nfs thinking it would be forced to ask me agian, but it didn't.. how do I get it to ask me again?
[21:52] <Orbixx> What are the different Ubuntu channels?
[21:53] <pcglue> Anyone know a gigabit pci express nic that'll work with gutsy out of the box?
[21:53] <stefg> !irc | Orbixx
[21:53] <ubotu> Orbixx: A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines
[21:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbixx, too many to list here.. anything specific you need

[21:53] <bluefoxx> other computer's chat client sucks >>
[21:53] <gNewPower> Hi, can somebody confirm to me that the Ubuntu DVD  contains all the packages from ubuntu, kubuntu, edubuntu, xubuntu, etc.
[21:54] <abrakadabr> how to copy file from cd to home dirictory?
[21:54] <pharoh> unop: oh well.anyway,i'm learning programming on windows in college en i practice at home on ubuntu..so i guess i'll just stick to both OS's but be more dominant in linux.
[21:54] <unop> fbc, i don't use gnome - so i am not sure, but given that shares-admin only works around two file sharing services, it's just easier to install them rather than count on shares-admin prompting for them.
[21:54] <pharoh> unop:here in india,they advise that you must know linux
[21:54] <bluefoxx> ubutom: thanks
[21:54] <Jack_Sparrow> gNewPower, The repositories cover over 4 dvd's so not everything will be on one dvd.. the basics yes..
[21:55] <abrakadabr> how to copy file from cd to home dirictory throught terminal?
[21:55] <gNewPower> Jack_Sparrow: thanks.
[21:55] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[21:55] <AzaTht> I have only one /dev/ttyUSB0
[21:55] <AzaTht> not three
[21:55] <unop> pharoh, knowing linux is an advantage sure, only knowing linux might not be enough, get what i mean? :)
[21:55] <AzaTht> though it has worked some times, but usually not
[21:56] <pharoh> unop:yeap..i understand:)
[21:56] <abrakadabr> how to copy file from cd to home dirictory throught terminal?
[21:56] <damaltor> abrakadabr: with "cp [from-path] [to-path]
[21:56] <Odd-rationale> abrakadabr: cp /media/cdrom/file ~/
[21:56] <stefg> !cli | abrakadabr
[21:56] <ubotu> abrakadabr: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[21:56] <AzaTht> and /var/log/messages identifies it as GSM modem (1-port)
[21:56] <abrakadabr> thx
[21:56] <abrakadabr> i'll try
[21:56] <theunixgeek> How do I run Wine in 256 color mode?
[21:57] <chetnick> i just bought a new 64 bit machine, i am wondering should i install 64 bit version of ubuntu or should i stay with 32bit?
[21:57] <damaltor> theunixgeek: try to run "winecfg" and configure it
[21:57] <AzaTht> does anyone has a clue what I should do?
[21:57] <theunixgeek> damaltor: there's nothing there about colors :(
[21:57] <stefg> chetnick: if you're not planning of stuffing more than 3,6 G of ram into it 32 bt is more convinient
[21:57] <damaltor> theunixgeek: just a sec
[21:57] <pcglue> I have a 400GB HD that's failing.  I want to copy the contents over to a 500GB HD so it's a duplicate.  Can I use dd even though the sizes are not the same?
[21:58] <Jack_Sparrow> pcglue, yes
[21:58] <Jack_Sparrow> bbl  Play nice..  Nickrud.. see you tomorrow...
[21:58] <chetnick> stefg: i have right now 2GB i am planing to upgrade to 4GB ... Doesnt 32bit version support 4gb of RAM?
[21:58] <abrakadabr> root@server1:/cdrom# cp /media/cdrom/ISPConfig-2.2.22.tar.gz ~/
[21:58] <abrakadabr> cp: cannot stat `/media/cdrom/ISPConfig-2.2.22.tar.gz': No such file or directory
[21:58] <stefg> pcglue: yes, if you don't mind wasting the surplus space. you'll have an exact copy of the filesystem (as opposed to partition)
[21:58] <abrakadabr> but it is on cd...
[21:59] <MaDeX> Hi guys, does nvdia driver only supports 50hz on plug and play montiors/tv?
[21:59] <Jack_Sparrow> chetnick, yes 4 gig but not all is available for programs...
[21:59] <navilon> what command can i use to test the speed of my hard drives
[21:59] <chetnick> ok Thanks ...
[21:59] <theRealballchalk> hey anyone got and is using totem?
[21:59] <unop> navilon, hdparm, see the hdparm manpage on how to accomplish this
[22:00] <navilon> unop: thanks!!
[22:00] <theRealballchalk> i can't get libdvdcss to work
[22:00] <pcglue> stefg,  if I don't want to waste the space, will cp (making sure all permissions stay the same) work?
[22:00] <Odd-rationale> abrakadabr: use tab to make sure you complete the line correctly. e.g. cp /media/cdr<TAB>/ISP<TAB>
[22:00] <unop> abrakadabr, is your cdrom mounted ?
[22:00] <Slant> Does anyone know of a tool that allows me to filter / process individual messages in a mailbox?
[22:00] <abrakadabr> unop, yes
[22:00] <Jack_Sparrow> pcglue, dd wont waste the space man dd or I can give you a link
[22:00] <Slant> Something like how you can use fetchmail on an external IMAP and run it through a filter.
[22:00] <unop> pcglue, you'll need to use cp -a if you use cp
[22:00] <damaltor> theunixgeek: hmmm i thoughgt i was sure.. but there doesnt seem to be an option like that. what is the reason for running something in 256 colors?
[22:00] <tim167> hello, i try to make a partition on a disk with gparted, but when it starts creating it the disk automatically mounts and then gparted says it cant create a partition ...what should i do ?
[22:01] <pcglue> Jack_Sparrow, would you send me the link please?
[22:01] <unop> abrakadabr, see what Odd-rationale just said ..
[22:01] <F3d0rA_> has Ubuntu 8.4 out of beta yet?
[22:01] <theunixgeek> damaltor: an old game :P
[22:01] <theunixgeek> F3d0rA_: no
[22:01] <theunixgeek> #ubuntu+1
[22:01] <damaltor> theunixgeek: what dows happen when you just run it?
[22:01] <andi5> tim167: does gparted allow you to umount it again?
[22:01] <pcglue> I wasn't sure if the partitions need to be the same size or not, and what will happen to the extra space on the bigger HD.
[22:01] <stefg> chetnick: 32 bit can only access 4 GB with a trick called PAE, so 64 bit is advisable for lots of ram. but you'll have trouble with things like flash and some codecs on 64 bit, meaning that you'll have  32bit compatible libs on the system then, too
[22:01] <Itaku> i get an error with vmware how do i fix it
[22:01] <abrakadabr> unop, what is 0dd-rationale?
[22:01] <bluefoxx> >>
[22:01] <Itaku> its some buffer userif.c error
[22:01] <MaDeX> theunixgeek: let me know what you got like 10 mins spare, I need to ask a few things :D
[22:02] <F3d0rA_> so there looking at a few more weeks?
[22:02] <theunixgeek> MaDeX: ok
[22:02] <AzaTht> asking again, anyone that could help me with my hsdpa usb modem?
[22:02] <theunixgeek> damaltor: it says it can only run in 256 color mode
[22:02] <tim167> andi5: not really, it gives an error
[22:02] <Odd-rationale> abrakadabr: me
[22:02] <unop> abrakadabr, <Odd-rationale> abrakadabr: use tab to make sure you complete the line correctly. e.g. cp /media/cdr<TAB>/ISP<TAB>

[22:02] <F3d0rA_> kewl thanks again
[22:02]  * nickrud has wondered about Odd-rationale
[22:03] <Jack_Sparrow> pcglue, dd wont waste the space man dd or I can give you a link          http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Dd
[22:03] <AzaTht> bluefoxx: still wrong channel I believe
[22:03] <chetnick> stefg: thats what i wanted to know ... i heard about some issues with 64bit OS when it comes to drivers, flash, codecs etc ... just wanted somebody to confirm that ...
[22:03] <theunixgeek> MaDeX: what do you need to ask?
[22:03] <pcglue> stefg, Jack_Sparrow, thanks
[22:03] <Jack_Sparrow> chetnick, yes starting with 32 bit will make the learning curve easier.
[22:03] <damaltor> theunixgeek: thats weird. i dont have any ideas but setting X to 256 colors wich doesnt make the thing nicer.. you could try to use "wineconsole" instead of "wine", wineconsole was made for some dos progs
[22:03] <MaDeX> care for a priv chat so i dont spam here :D
[22:03] <Jack_Sparrow> pcglue, np
[22:03] <abrakadabr> how can i see what files are on cd? maybe my PC don't see them...
[22:04] <kitche> pcglue: the extra space will just be there but if your doing byte by byte then the partitions will most likely needt o be the same size such as in doing a hard drive copy instead of like a directory
[22:04] <chetnick> Thanks
[22:04] <fbc> unop, OK I've create the export configuration and started up both the nfs.common and nfs-kenel-server daemons.. Do they automatically advertise the service on the network for other ubuntu machines running nautilus to discover?
[22:04] <theunixgeek> damaltor: I'll look at that
[22:04] <damaltor> theunixgeek: ok.. good luck
[22:04] <theunixgeek> damaltor: still doesn't work
[22:04] <theunixgeek> :P
[22:05] <Odd-rationale> abrakadabr: "cd /media/cdrom && ls"
[22:05] <tim167> andi5: gparted can unmount it,and then shows it as if the partition is made, but i cant write anything on it and it contains a file named "lost and found", wierd...
[22:05] <Odd-rationale> abrakadabr: or just "ls /media/cdrom"
[22:06] <damaltor> theunixgeek: thats bad.. then i dont have any ideas sorry
[22:06] <andi5> tim167: did you boot from the gparted cd or is that not necessary on your computer?
[22:06] <abrakadabr> root@server1:/media/cdrom# cd /media/cdrom && ls
[22:06] <abrakadabr> root@server1:/media/cdrom# cd /media/cdrom && ls

[22:06] <Odd-rationale> abrakadabr: then you cd must not be mounted...
[22:07] <tim167> andi5: its an external USB disk that i am trying to format with a ext3 partition
[22:07] <unop> fbc, errm, i don't think so - you'll need to get the nfs clients to mount directories from the nfs server - nautilus does this (but there's no auto discovery) as does mount and other utilities
[22:07] <r00723r0> Hi, I'm having issues with my graphics drivers.
[22:07] <abrakadabr> i use a small-cd, maybe it works only with normal?
[22:07] <r00723r0> Namely I cannot modprobe nvidia.
[22:07] <r00723r0> Any suggestions?
[22:07] <ikonia> r00723r0: what happens when you tried to mobprobe
[22:07] <tim167> andi5:  i dont know if i should boot from a gparded CD...should i ?
[22:07] <AzaTht> r00723r0: updated kernel reecently?
[22:08] <andi5> tim167: ok, i see... is that really a file named "lost+found" or rather a directory?
[22:08] <r00723r0> AzaTht: seems to be the case. ikonia, wait a bit.
[22:08] <r00723r0> Error running install command for nvidia.
[22:08] <r00723r0> Is what it shits out.
[22:08] <andi5> tim167: no, probably not in case of a usb device, unless you booted from it
[22:08] <AzaTht> hmm
[22:08] <ikonia> r00723r0: watch the language
[22:08] <abrakadabr> i use a small-cd, maybe it works only with normal?
[22:08] <r00723r0> ikonia: sorry.
[22:08] <AzaTht> install command?
[22:08] <r00723r0> AzaTht: I know, I've never seen this before either.
[22:08] <tim167> andi5: a directory,but with a red [x] icon
[22:09] <andi5> tim167: what does "sudo touch $mountpoint/somename" do?
[22:09] <lovehandles> Hello there, I've got a fresh Gutsy install here, and I've just added a second HD (/dev/hdb) to my system. I have partitioned and formatted it ext3 and i've added it to my fstab. When it's mounted it puts a "new volume" icon on the desktop. Is there a way to have it mounted and not showing on my desktop?
[22:09] <ikonia> lovehandles: you need to use gconf2 to edit a gnome setting to remove that
[22:10] <ikonia> lovehandles: the exact setting is not on the tip of my tongue
[22:10] <r00723r0> ikonia, AzaTht: any recommendations?
[22:10] <tim167>  andi5: it creates the file test.txt
[22:10] <ikonia> lovehandles: if you want to change the label of the disk you'll get a "nicer" desktop icon
[22:10] <AzaTht> r00723r0: sadly, none
[22:10] <r00723r0> AzaTht: understood.
[22:10] <lovehandles> That might be good enough for now
[22:10] <ikonia> r00723r0: I'm still waiting to see the error message when you try to modprobe
[22:10] <r00723r0> ikonia: I just showed you it.

[22:10] <AzaTht> I my self is trying to get help here (without any sucess I might add)
[22:10] <andi5> tim167: that sounds like a permission problem, caused by improper mounting, rather than gparted's mistake :)
[22:10] <ikonia> r00723r0: thats not an error message
[22:10] <ikonia> r00723r0: what command are you using
[22:10] <r00723r0> ikonia: "sudo modprobe nvidia".
[22:11] <tim167> andi5: the mounting is automatic
[22:11] <r00723r0> Want me to exec -o it?
[22:11] <nohelphere> floodbot is repeating itslf
[22:11] <r00723r0> FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
[22:11] <ikonia> r00723r0: is the error in another language and your translating it ?
[22:11] <nohelphere> itself
[22:11] <r00723r0> No.
[22:11] <r00723r0> That's directly from the output.
[22:11] <ikonia> r00723r0: how did you install the nvidia module ?
[22:11] <r00723r0> ikonia: nvidia-glx-new from Synaptic.
[22:11] <r00723r0> This is the first time I've seen something like this as well.
[22:12] <xteven> How do I list the numerical representation of the permissions a file/folder ?
[22:12] <ikonia> r00723r0: and your running gusty
[22:12] <r00723r0> No, Hardy.
[22:12] <ikonia> xteven: you don't
[22:12] <ikonia> r00723r0: ok, that explains it, join #ubuntu+1
[22:12] <r00723r0> Roger, soldier.
[22:12] <xteven> ikonia, so it's impossible to list the numerical value?
[22:12] <ikonia> r00723r0: that error message is "new"
[22:12] <ikonia> xteven: I'm not aware of a tool
[22:12] <stefg> lovehandles: everything in /media gets a desktop icon, because it's considered as a removable medium. put it somewhre else (/mnt) and write an /etc/fstab entry for it
[22:12] <MaDeX> anyone able to help me?
[22:12] <maynard> excuse i have deleted the directory of the desktop... how i can come back?
[22:13] <lovehandles> i have an fstab entry that mounts it at /storage
[22:13] <ikonia> MaDeX: if you ask a question
[22:13] <pirattrev> how do u get your own personal channel listed on the main channels list?
[22:13] <Danish989> hi everyone
[22:13] <lovehandles> and when i umount /storage the icon dissapears
[22:13] <MaDeX> ikonia: I have
[22:13] <MaDeX> :D
[22:13] <ikonia> maynard: is it in the trash bin ?
[22:13] <ikonia> MaDeX: I've not sen it
[22:13] <maynard> yes
[22:13] <andi5> tim167: hm... i am not sure then... maybe it is still mounted by gparted?
[22:13] <ikonia> maynard: pull it out of the trash can then
[22:13] <stefg> lovehandles: try a reboot, if fstab is set up. hal/dbus might be confused
[22:13] <lovehandles> ok, I will try that. Thank you stefg
[22:13] <saikobee> maynard: mkdir ~/Desktop
[22:14] <maynard> but the desktop directory is changed
[22:14] <Danish989> I have a quick question: I want to isntall ubuntu on a partition with fat32 file system, which install option should I choose from the ubuntu install partioner, so that my existing data doesn't get removed and ubuntu creates a ext3 partition for itself without touching any other data on that disk?
[22:14] <MaDeX> I have issues with the nvidia, running kubuntu movies /refresh rate is fine, however I want ubuntu, getting codecs not running well, and 50hz refresh (running media pc on 42" tv)
[22:14] <ikonia> MaDeX: none of that makes any sense
[22:14] <MaDeX> :/
[22:14] <fbc> unop, when I try to mount the nfs from my laptop I get a timeout error. If there anyway I can check if there is somthing in my iptables files?
[22:15] <ikonia> MaDeX: ubuntu is the same as kubuntu in terms of codec packages
[22:15] <MaDeX> hmm
[22:15] <tim167> andi5: no, thats not the case, i closed gparted, i see a volume in my filebrowser, but i cant write on it
[22:15] <MaDeX> maybe its the nvidia drivers
[22:15] <ikonia> MaDeX: how can getting codecs not be "going well"
[22:15] <MaDeX> its the drivers ikonia
[22:15] <ikonia> MaDeX: the nvidia driver will be the same in gnome/kde
[22:15] <ay> if it ungoes well!
[22:15] <maynard> is possibile change the desktop directory?
[22:15] <ay> impossible is nothing
[22:15] <andi5> tim167: can you umount it from the filebrowser?  if not, try "sudo umount $mountpoint"... then unplug and plug the device... maybe that helps, i do not know :)
[22:15] <slipttees> paste
[22:15] <slipttees> !paste
[22:15] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined 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 channel topic)
[22:16] <MaDeX> ikonia: well its saying 50hz on ubuntu, and I can get 60 with kubuntu
[22:16] <Danish989> can someone answer a quick installation question please?
[22:16] <maynard> ay: do you know how?
[22:16] <MaDeX> ikonia: movie playback is laggy, and doesnt look detailed enough
[22:16] <ay> well no, but i think i could google it
[22:16] <tanto_> hello
[22:16] <andi5> Danish989: you do want to install into the fat32 formatted partition or not?  i think that makes no sense at all, just make sure you have enough space for linux on its own
[22:16] <tim167> andi5: hmm i tried but no, actually i dont need a partition to dd a disk, do i ?
[22:16] <ay> but its my way of seeing things, nothing is impossible
[22:16] <ikonia> MaDeX: is xorg using the nvida driver on both, do you have compiz running on both, what are teh differences other than the desktop
[22:17] <unop> fbc, if you have iptables enabled, disable it for the moment so you can verify that nfs is working, because your nfs problem could also lie elsewhere -- anyway, for nfs to work, port 111 and 2049 (tcp) need to be open
[22:17] <Danish989> I do want to install into the fat32 formatted partition
[22:17] <monofuel> i'm getting issues with my wireless pci card. it's a realtek 8185, the support page says the card was confirmed to work with 2 previous version of ubuntu, but i can't get connected to my home network to go online.
[22:17] <ikonia> andi5: you won't be able to install onto a fat partition
[22:17] <Danish989> but doesnt ubuntu format the space into ext3?
[22:17] <MaDeX> ikonia: its hard to explain i think it could be totem then
[22:17] <Danish989> and when it does that, does that mean the whole drive will be erased?
[22:17] <ikonia> Danish989: you won't be able to install ubuntu onto a fat32 partition
[22:17] <andi5> tim167: you can dd into files or raw devices... no need to create a file system
[22:17] <slipttees> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63114/
[22:17] <Wibble-> I've recently installed a new SATA DVD burner and trying to burn a DVD using "growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/scd0 ." used to work with my EIDE burner on Ubuntu 7.10, but now does not produce DVD player compatible DVD's with the SATA burner on Ubuntu 8.04.  Is there something I need to be doing differently?
[22:17] <ikonia> andi5: no you can't
[22:18] <andi5> ikonia: i cannot what? :-)
[22:18] <fbc> unop, how do you do that?
[22:18] <ikonia> andi5: dd'ing the files onto raw devices will not work as an installtion method
[22:18] <Danish989> do I need to use Gparted to first resize the partition?
[22:18] <MaDeX> ikonia:  I also have a second pc, where the I have nvidia 8800 gts, the setup cd runs, but when i select try, the screen goes blank
[22:18] <xeer> does Ubuntu have any DLNA support? aka, streaming audio/video to PS3/XBox360?
[22:18] <ay> maynard: what exactly do you want to do?
[22:18] <tim167> andi5: i have a crashed disk and i want to try dd-ing it to this new one...ok i'll try it...was the command this : dd -if /dev/olddisk -of /dev/newdisk ? or do i need to add more stuff ?
[22:18] <unop> fbc, i don't remember these iptables commands at the top of my head .. but please do !google, you'll find something.
[22:18] <ay> because you can bind a folder to desktop
[22:19] <owen1> how to do right click with keyboard?
[22:19] <andi5> ikonia: i did not know anyone was trying to use that as an installation method
[22:19] <ikonia> andi5: Danish989 appears to be, unless you where not talking to him
[22:19] <tim167> andi5: i had all that in memo's but they are on the trashed disk ... :/
[22:19] <MaDeX> I think ill go back to kubuntu
[22:19] <andi5> tim167: dd if=/dev/olddisk of=/dev/newdisk bs=4k (or whatever blocksize you prefer), there are also count or offset, but i guess you do notneed them
[22:20] <andash> hello, my dvd-burner have suddenly stopped working. it worked perfectly until a few days ago. it can read but not burn in any way, what may be the cause?
[22:20] <Danish989> Ok, here's my question re-phrased : if I resize using the partition, how should I resize it? On the partition 7.51 GB is free and I have 1GB of ram on the computer ... how should I resize the partitions for ubuntu? Including space for a swap partition?
[22:20] <ikonia> andash: faulty drive ?
[22:21] <ikonia> Danish989: your call, it's personal taste
[22:21] <andash> ikonia: well thats a possibility but i dont think so..
[22:21] <ay> indeed
[22:21] <tim167> andi5: ok, so bs=4k is good to recover data from a broken disk ?, also do you know anything about what i can do with the image afterwards ? are there tools to recover the actual files from it ?
[22:21] <ikonia> andash: try it from the livecd ?
[22:21] <arcticpenguin380> DOES the alt cd install faster than the live cd?
[22:21] <unop> Danish989, 6.5G for / and 1 for swap ..
[22:21] <Danish989> but what would you recommend, ikonia?
[22:21] <ay> Danish989: just try 1.5gb swap and aut rest
[22:21] <xeer> does Ubuntu have any DLNA support? aka, streaming audio/video to PS3/XBox360?
[22:21] <andash> ah, good idea. ill do that then
[22:21] <ikonia> arcticpenguin380: it will do as there is no gui running in memory
[22:21] <andi5> tim167: fortunately i have never had the pleasure to have a broken disk, so no, i am sorry
[22:22] <ay> I have.. :(
[22:22] <tim167> andi5, ok no problem
[22:22] <stercor> I'm looking for a window manager that I used a long time ago.  It had 6 panels, all with nothing in them.  When one panel was full, I could switch to a new, blank panel.  MUCH better than getting the same icons on a new panel.
[22:22] <Danish989> ok thanks for everything :)
[22:22] <ay> np :)
[22:22] <monofuel> i'm getting issues with my wireless pci card. it's a realtek 8185, the support page says the card was confirmed to work with 2 previous version of ubuntu, but i can't get connected to my home network to go online.
[22:23] <kitche>  umm sounds like twm stercor maybe unless you mean by panels a new desktop
[22:23] <stercor> kitche: thanks, I'll go nose around.
[22:23] <andi5> kitche: is not metacity the one with only 4 panels? ;-)
[22:23] <maynard> ay: I have to change the directory of the desktop because i deleted the director /home/user/desktop...
[22:23] <ay> oh..
[22:24] <theexecutor> hi guys...I've got a problem running flash plugin...I normaly install it via Firefox' xtension manager, but that flash things doesn's work. Could u help me pls??
[22:24] <kitche> depends what he means by panels
[22:24] <maynard> ay: and the desktop directory is changed in /home/user/
[22:24] <azexian>
[22:24] <mio> theexecutor: try sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[22:25] <gatestone> I would have resizex my Windows partition with PartitionMagic but it failed. Any other suggestions, with Linux tools?
[22:25] <theexecutor> okay, but it'll follow the same process as via firefox or not??
[22:25] <mio> theoretically yes
[22:25] <mio> what version of ubuntu do you use?
[22:25] <tylerflick> gatestone: Use the live ubuntu cd and run gnome partitioner
[22:26] <theexecutor> I've got xubuntu gutsy
[22:26] <sidelil> excuse me how can I ssh to a computer behind a router?
[22:26] <mio> 32 or 64 bit?
[22:26] <theexecutor> sry 32
[22:26] <mio> kk
[22:26] <mio> what is the error message the installation gives you?
[22:26] <tylerflick> gatestone: You cannot resize a partition from the same hard drive you are running an OS on. Hence the need to run Gparted from the live cd.
[22:27] <andi5> sidelil: forward port 22 from your router to your computer,... (or even change port 22 to some other, not well-known number)
[22:27] <Ashex> Luck be with me, fsck failed on my laptop
[22:27] <Ashex> is manual check fsck -p /dev/sda3?
[22:27] <theexecutor> that's that problem..no error does appear..it simply doesn't run
[22:27] <mio> did you try to remove it and to reinstall it?
[22:28] <sidelil> andi5, and then? When I've forwarded the port, should i ssh to the internet address of the router?
[22:28] <Ashex> nevermind, running it now
[22:28] <ay> maynard:  pardon my ignorance, but why can't you re-create the directory?
[22:28] <Ashex> it's been awhile since I've had this happen :/
[22:28] <andi5> sidelil:  sure
[22:28] <azexian>
[22:28] <theexecutor> no...I'll try it...thx
[22:28] <mio> sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree :-)
[22:28] <theexecutor> sudo prompts it's installed in the newest vs
[22:28] <sidelil> andi5, just the internet address, nothing else like the local address of the computer in the LAN?
[22:28] <maynard> ay: i re-create the directory but the desktop directory is changed...
[22:29] <theexecutor> i know thx:D
[22:29] <mio> then enter about:plugins in firefox :-)
[22:29] <mio> and check whether flash is listed or not
[22:29] <andi5> sidelil: that is the part of information you tell your router beforehand: "if something wants to talk with you on port 22, rather redirect it to blaa"
[22:29] <theexecutor> k
[22:29] <Joth> Dual desktops is working on my login screen, but not after I actually login; is it possible that when I login, it's using a different xorg.conf file?
[22:29] <sidelil> andi5, ah, ok cool. Thanks.
[22:30] <bharadwaj> while I was trying to customise my live CD I don't remember wht I did but while deleting the one file I get it is read only file..now I am unable to delete it..anyhelp would be grate..
[22:30] <theexecutor> would lsmod work??
[22:30] <ay> maynard: oh and since you deleted it your desktop is set to /home/user/.. hmm then I dont know really but you couldn't be the first with this problem
[22:30] <ay> I shalt investigate
[22:30] <theexecutor> or better q...would lsmod list that plugin??
[22:30] <mio> dont know
[22:31] <maynard> ay: thanks
[22:31] <mio> but firefox should list it
[22:31] <maynard> ay: i too
[22:31] <mio> otherwise it will probably not work
[22:31] <navilon> when running a file system check, what does "10.5% non-contiguous" mean
[22:31] <andi5> maynard: there is a magical gconf key, somewhere in /desktop, i think... just use gconf-editor and search for desktop :)
[22:31] <sangprabo> Hi, all. I've downloaded javadoc from sun's site, copy it into /tmp and extract it with synaptic. But, in NetBeans 6.0, when I want to include it as the javadoc (using Library Manager) and input the URL (/usr/share/doc/j2sdk1.4/1.4.2/jdk/api ), nothing happens. What should I do?
[22:31] <azexian>
[22:32] <Flyerfye> Anyone know how to get S-video to work
[22:32] <mio> theexecutor i misunderstood you, lsmod just lists kernel modules and no browser plugins...
[22:33] <andi5> sangprabo: do not use /tmp and that directory is typically used for temporary storage... some distros (ubuntu? i do not know) clear that directory at each boot
[22:33] <theexecutor> no plugins r installed said firefox...so I'll try to sudo again??
[22:33] <mio> remove and install again
[22:33] <mio> but before do a sudo apt-get update
[22:33] <theexecutor> k...thx
[22:33] <jessid> hello I am using moto4lin and everything goes right but when i press the connect button, i cant see the files sotred in th phone. My phone is a supported device....when i run p2ktest it shows a biiiig list, what could it be????
[22:33] <mio> than check in firefox about:plugins whether it is installed or not
[22:33] <Hooplah> Does anyone know how to get rid of terminal "logs">
[22:33] <sangprabo> andi5: I don't boot my PC
[22:33] <kitche> andi5: if you notice he said /usr/share/doc/ he only used /tmp for temporary storage like you said
[22:34] <andi5> theexecutor: out of curiosity, did you check the url "about:plugins"?
[22:34] <Flannel> Hooplah: which logs?
[22:34] <Hooplah> Like, the previous commands I've used.
[22:34] <sangprabo> andi5: after I've copied the file, I went to synaptyc
[22:34] <Flannel> Hooplah: that's ~/.bash_history
[22:34] <theexecutor> checked...not installed
[22:34] <Hooplah> okay. and doing rm -fr should do the trick?
[22:34] <andi5> kitche: oops, i did not read the synaptic part, i assume he extracted it right there
[22:34] <kitche> sangprabo: if you compiled the program then why are you using synaptic?
[22:34] <Flannel> Hooplah: No.  just rm.  no -r and no -f
[22:34] <theexecutor> installing now:)
[22:35] <milesd> Hi, everybody. I'm trying to run the Gutsy livecd/installer but I can't get it to boot. when I take the "silent splash" keywords out of the boot parameters I can see it get as far as starting hald, I get an "ok" and then the box hangs
[22:35] <azexian>
[22:35] <sangprabo> kitche: I mean I used sudo apt-get (again)
[22:35] <gatestone> I googleds  ntfsresize, But I can't find it in the Ubuntu packages?
[22:35] <milesd> acpi=off didn't help much, either... Has anybody else run into this?
[22:35] <chetnick> try no apic
[22:35] <sangprabo> kitche: I am using sudo apt-get autoremove, and it automatically solved the problem, but I still have a problem with NetBeans
[22:36] <gatestone> ok, ntfsresize in in ntfsprogs. Found it with Synaptic, thoug aptitude search gave nothing.
[22:36] <Adys> is it a reasonable idea to remove ubuntu-docs if i never use the help files, or does it contain more than just that?
[22:37] <J-Unit> is there any software for ubuntu that allows me to contruct stem and leaf plots and box and wisker plots?

[22:38] <theexecutor> install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[22:38] <theexecutor> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[22:38] <mio_> executor do the apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree again
[22:38] <theexecutor> where's the problem??
[22:38] <mio_> there is an update of flash
[22:39] <theexecutor> k
[22:39] <mio_> and the deb package checks the download size of the old version
[22:39] <mio_> so there is an mismatch

[22:47] <gatestone> Pelo and others, BTW I don't suggest doing ntfsresize (or similar, if your Linux partition is low on disk space. I started this process now because my Linux programs started to silently crash due low disk space..

[22:49] <arcanistherogue> is xfce better than gnome?  ask yourself that

[22:53] <gfetco> I dont want to know if someone is entering the chat or not
[22:54] <Pelo> millertime_018, then you probably don'T need a driver,  I think you probably just need to install xgl or some such but I am no expert, try asking in #compiz they will know waht you need

[23:00] <theexecutor> and run sudo install again??
[23:00] <Pelo> cannon, open synaptic search for gstreamer0.10 and install everythng you see

[23:00] <mio_> then you just visit youtube
[23:01] <mio_> and firefox should downlaod flash to its home dir

[23:01] <cannon> k, pelo
[23:01] <theexecutor> k..thx...I'll try that
[23:01] <Pelo> gfetco, hold on that 's for gtxboot
[23:01] <dmsuperman> I have KTorrent. I go to the file tab, and try to open an mp3. It says that the link is malformed, and it's pointing to amarok to open it with. I used to have amarok, but I have exaile now. I've changed it from amarok to exaile in my Preferred Applications, what else do I have to do to make KTorrent follow this new command?
[23:01] <n0dl> ok. I have created a variable with the string NAME="Aquabats,The". Im trying to get awk to search for the string via this command awk -F':' "/$NAME/"'{print $0}' mp3list. However its not printing anything out. When i set the variable to just Aquabats it works correctly. How would i get special characters such as , to be parsed?
[23:01] <gfetco> Should i search for gtxboot?

[23:01] <_Silhouette_> Hello...I am trying to load ubuntu from an external HD using EasyBCD....I don't know what the bootloader path is, though, or if I have grub installed properly. How can I tell?
[23:01] <Flyerfye> Pelo: Ill brb, checking if it works
[23:02] <theexecutor> it's got some problem with that??
[23:02] <Pelo> _Silhouette_, are you booting from the interenal drive or from the external ?
[23:02] <gfetco> Thanks Pelo your a great man or woman xD
[23:02] <djnm> is anyone using the weather.pl script and having problems with the 5 day forcast?
[23:02] <theexecutor> i mean flashplugin with ffox xtension
[23:02]  * Pelo is the spirit of the internet
[23:02] <mio_> flashplugin got updated again
[23:02] <mio_> and ubuntu does not update its packages every 2 days
[23:03] <mio_> so you could just wait a week or so and then installation would work flawlessly
[23:03] <gfetco> The great spirit of the internet?
[23:03] <Pelo> djnm, is that part of conky screenlets , gdesklets ?
[23:03] <_Silhouette_> Pelo: I would assume the internal, although ubuntu is on the external hard drive
[23:03] <mio_> they normally release updated packages
[23:03] <gfetco> I doubt internet has a spirit
[23:03] <gfetco> lol
[23:03] <MagoonD> when I use tsclient to rdp to a xp machine in full screen mode I can only get back to my ubuntu desktop if I disconnect, how can I switch back and forth without disconnecting?
[23:03] <ay> you saying pelo is dead?
[23:03] <Pelo> _Silhouette_, if you can , try booting from the external , supossing ubuntu was completely installed on the external grub incluede
[23:03] <J-Unit> andi5_, im making decent stem and leaf with tomboy anyway...if u no of any good app tell me tho :)
[23:04] <dmsuperman> Magoon: Try alt + tab? or does windows capture that?
[23:04] <Pelo> gfetco, go and read some Gibson
[23:04] <andi5_> J-Unit: that is not my favorite topic, but have you tried those r packages, like r-gnome?
[23:04] <MagoonD> dmsuperman, let me try that brb
[23:04] <_Silhouette_> Pelo: I don't know if grub was installed. I used the alternate CD install, live didn't work
[23:04]  * Pelo never told anyone to go and read Gibson , he must realy hate gfetco
[23:04] <Pelo> _Silhouette_, grub is always installed,
[23:05] <J-Unit> andi5_, no, ill try that as soon as my terminal is done doing wat it is currently doing
[23:05] <_Silhouette_> Pelo: EasyBCD's bootloader path mentions a \NST\nst_grub.mbr , which I don't see on the HD.
[23:05] <MagoonD> dmsuperman, windows captures alt + tab
[23:05] <gfetco> What is gibson?
[23:05] <Pelo> _Silhouette_, just to recap here can you actualy boot ubuntu or not ? what exactly is the issue ?
[23:05] <gfetco> lol
[23:05] <_Silhouette_> Pelo: Ubuntu shows on the vista bootloader, but I can't boot into ubuntu
[23:05] <dmsuperman> MagoonD, what about Winkey + Tab? I'm not sure if that's enabled by default in ubuntu, but it switches for me
[23:05] <_Silhouette_> Pelo: I'm using EasyBCD
[23:05] <Pelo> gfetco, and author or ciberpunk novels, realhy bad lit
[23:05] <theexecutor> mio thanks a lot it's working!! Now I can view all that beatiful blinking anoying ads:D

[23:06] <mio_> give noscript and adblock plus a try
[23:06] <mio_> but no problem
[23:06] <andi5_> theexecutor: have fun while clicking them :)
[23:06] <ay> noscript <3
[23:06] <gfetco> Well you cant be mad at me for saying internet has a spirit
[23:06] <Odd-rationale> _Silhouette_: a fool-proof method of installing ubuntu to external hdd is to remove all other drives (internal) and install ubuntu as normal. that way, grub will automatically be installed in the correct location.
[23:06] <gfetco> Its just numbers
[23:06] <theexecutor> yeah i know...adblock is my favourite:) just a joke
[23:06] <gfetco> well bye
[23:06] <ay> NO!
[23:06] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: it's a laptop
[23:06] <Pelo> _Silhouette_, that's when you boot from the internal hdd I assume,  try booting from the exxternal, see what happens,  I can't realy help you much,  I don'T know about bdc and about vista bootloader
[23:06] <ay> LEAVE MY INTERNETS ALONEZZ!!1
[23:06] <djnm> Pelo: no its a perl script i got off the forums
[23:07] <mio_> okay :)
[23:07] <Odd-rationale> _Silhouette_: sure. same thing...
[23:07] <thenetduck> Can some one help me with a question about upgrading my Ubuntu machine?
[23:07] <dmsuperman> MagoonD, then I'm not sure, I'm not familiar with the client. I know that Windows RDP client has a little bar across the top that allows you to minimize and close, but I think that's part of the client not the server

[23:07] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: ubuntu is already installed to external drive. I just need to boot it
[23:07] <djnm> Pelo: yeah
[23:07] <ay> andi5_: true.. so we have pelo!
[23:07] <Pelo> _Silhouette_, I'll stop now I'm realy not able to hlep you
[23:08] <Pelo> djnm, try asking in #conky then
[23:08] <willie> Can someone point me at the correct forum to enquire about 8.04 on sparc?  Thank you    I have a problem specifying the keyboard -- no option for sun6 usb
[23:08] <djnm> Pelo: k
[23:08] <andi5_> willie: #ubuntu+1 is a good starting point, i suppose
[23:08] <thenetduck> ay, Ok, I would like to install the new Hardy Heron edition of Ubuntu but I want to have it installed and working for a long time. My question is, if I install the beta version, when the official release comes out will it just be a couple of updates?
[23:08] <Pelo> ay, if you realy knew how little I know you'd  be very very disapointed
[23:08] <RAdams> Does anyone know why I can't see the mp3 option I created in rhythmbox under the music tab? I'm trying to set it as my preferred option. I set it to "active" when editing its profile, but it isn't a preferred format option
[23:09] <ay> Pelo: and thus I don't know!
[23:09] <thenetduck> ay, or will it be a full OS upgrade from beta to whatever
[23:09] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: do you have any suggestions? what is this \nst\ folder?
[23:09] <andi5_> ay: do not trash our deep trust in you :)
[23:09] <theexecutor> bb
[23:09] <ay> thenetduck: that one I don't know, so I hope one of our fellow knowers do!
[23:09] <andi5_> sorry, Pelo i mean
[23:09] <Teo-> i have lenovo 3000 and some keys are not working like / ?  help pls..
[23:09] <nickrud> thenetduck you'll see a bunch of updates between now and then, but no os upgrade
[23:09] <willie> andi5_: thank you
[23:09] <ay> andi5_: hehe :D The force is strong in this one
[23:09] <_Silhouette_> Pelo: where is the .mbr usually on Ubuntu?
[23:09] <Pelo> thenetduck, if you install the beta , when it comes out officaly you will just get updated, , but I would wait for the official , it's got several little bugs left to fix
[23:09] <Odd-rationale> _Silhouette_: dunno what is /nst. can your laptop boot from usb?
[23:10] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: yes
[23:10] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: at least the bios says it can
[23:10] <Odd-rationale> _Silhouette_: how are you trying to boot it right now?
[23:10] <Pelo> _Silhouette_, no idea
[23:10] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: easyBCD, via vista bootloader
[23:10] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: it can't find the nst_grub.mbr file, and neither can I
[23:10] <thenetduck> Pelo, will it just be a cleaner install if I wait?
[23:11] <nickrud> _Silhouette_ the mbr? usually on the first sector of the drive
[23:11] <wesolek> nickrud?
[23:11] <Odd-rationale> _Silhouette_: you need to install grub on the external hdd.
[23:11] <Pelo> thenetduck, yes , much cleaner, only 11 days,  be patient
[23:11] <_Silhouette_> nickrud: where is that? I can't find it
[23:11] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: did it do that when I installed ubuntu?
[23:11] <Odd-rationale> _Silhouette_: the easybcd disk should not be needed.
[23:11] <boolka> I installed 8.04 on my laptop which is connected to tv through Svideo cable. When I press power button on laptop and function + svideo out, i see the pic on tv. When it all loads up to the screen where im asked to enter user and pass, it turns of and i see image only on laptop, and cant get it to show anything on tv after that. How can this be fixed?
[23:11] <Odd-rationale> _Silhouette_: probably not...
[23:11] <Pelo> boolka, you need to ask in #ubuntu+1
[23:12] <_Silhouette_> odd-rationale: how do I install grub to the external drive, then?
[23:12] <thenetduck> Pelo, :/  .... my firefox doesn't work and I can't seem to get it working... so that's whats pushing me to install the new os
[23:12] <nickrud> _Silhouette_ I don't think I've ever seen an nst_grub.mbr on a standard ubuntu install, sounds like something windows would use in it's loader
[23:12] <GIn_> can u use berul themes with compiz?
[23:12] <boolka> Pelo thanks, whats the ubuntu+1 channel?
[23:12] <andi5_> time to reveal my secret blocker glibc bug... :-)
[23:12] <Odd-rationale> _Silhouette_: what do you have running on you laptop? vista?
[23:12] <ay> thenetduck: whats up with firefox?
[23:12] <Pelo> thenetduck, what is it that is not working in FF  FF itself or some part of it ?
[23:12] <zcat[1]> GIn_: you can use emerald, yes..
[23:12] <ay> thenetduck: tried to installed the FF beta?
[23:12] <Pelo> boolka, #ubuntu+1
[23:12] <nickrud> _Silhouette_ how did you install to this external drive?
[23:12] <wesolek> nickrud can you help me with my wireless?
[23:12]  * zcat[1] is using emerald with compiz-fusion now..
[23:12] <Flyerfye> Pelo: I dled nv-tv and I think it will work, ill try it out when I get home and report back
[23:12] <nickrud> wesolek heh. I know jack about wireless
[23:13] <boolka> Pelo is that channel specifically for 8,04?
[23:13] <Pelo> nickrud,  wireless has no jack that,s the point
[23:13] <ay> whoops daughter awoke, brb
[23:13] <nickrud> Pelo is Punchy today :)
[23:13] <wesolek> nickrud, oh I see... I just remember you helped me last time
[23:13] <Pelo> boolka, it,s the channel for the "next" version , we'Re the official one , we'Re still doig 7.10
[23:13] <boolka> ah thanks
[23:13] <thenetduck> ay, pelo ya I installed FF 3 successfully but wanted to switch back to reg. So I downloaded the reg release and deleted my /usr/bin/firefox (the beta one) and replaced it with the reg folder.
[23:13] <zcat[1]> ten more days?
[23:14] <andi5_> boah, that is rather old... would be interesting how many percent of the folks here upgraded already
[23:14] <dtolj> zcat[1]: until what?
[23:14]  * zcat[1] upgraded already :)
[23:14] <thenetduck> ay, Pelo the problem is, when I type "firefox" in the terminal, it says there is no /usr/bin/firefox but there is!
[23:14] <Pelo> thenetduck, delete it again , and reisntall FF 2.o freom the repositories
[23:14] <CorbinFox> Can anyone recommend a laptop that works with 7.10 without issue?  I'm looking for a 17" screen if possible.  If there is a forum post that I am failing to find then feel free to yell at me
[23:14] <thenetduck> Pelo, tried that... doesn't work
[23:14] <CelticLord> nuit!!
[23:14] <nickrud> thenetduck bet that's a directory, not a file.
[23:14] <jj3666> it's standard in HH which plenty are already running
[23:14] <ODB> does anyone know what could cause the sound device to fail although i followed this guide here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[23:14] <Pelo> CorbinFox, check out the dell website or the system76 one
[23:14] <dtolj> CorbinFox: asus eee
[23:15] <ODB> its strange since i have the device listed under hardware and
[23:15] <nickrud> thenetduck ls -ld /usr/bin/firefox , what do you get back?
[23:15] <zcat[1]> dtolj: which model of the asus has a 17" screen?!
[23:15] <CorbinFox> I am looking to dualboot tho, and I don't think the eee is 17" screen :P
[23:15] <jj3666> system76 has been good to me so far
[23:15] <Pelo> ODB, do ou get an error msg ?
[23:15] <ODB> it "should" be working
[23:15] <andi5_> nickrud: does -d work on non-directories, like files?
[23:15] <nickrud> andi5_ yes

[23:16] <andi5_> nickrud: cool...
[23:16] <Draconicus> Hey there. I couldn't help but notice that a lot of packages that were in Feisty have disappeared from Gutsy...
[23:16] <jj3666> and nvidia 6xxx in particular
[23:16] <Draconicus> Such as qjackctl
[23:16] <nickrud> thenetduck sure enough, it's a directory. delete that directory and all it's contents, then  reinstall firefox from the repos
[23:16] <Pelo> ODB, check in admin > users , make sure you have permission to use the audio devices
[23:16] <Draconicus> Oof. Why do I bother coming in here? :|
[23:16] <thenetduck> nickrud, ok will update one second
[23:16] <wildwobby> Hey guys, when I try to use firefox 3, this happens: Carol,
[23:16] <wildwobby> What were you thinking? It is frustrating to me when I see someone so
[23:16] <wildwobby> involved in children's education who act so stupidly. Quit your job,
[23:16] <wildwobby> you suck at it.
[23:16] <FloodBot1> wildwobby: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:16] <ay> jj3666: dunno about HH but I always have problems with my GT6600 it seems :)
[23:17] <nickrud> Draconicus and your question is?
[23:17] <Pelo> Draconicus, same reason nickrud and I do , you have no life

[23:18] <GIn_> zcat[1]: do I need to install another stuff beside emerald to use its themes?
[23:18] <Draconicus> I see qjackctl here http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/sound/qjackctl - I have universe repositories enabled. Where is the package in apt?
[23:18] <Pelo> nickrud, if he wasn'T asking for it before well tell him it was a freebee
[23:18] <Draconicus> andi5_: See my previous input
[23:18] <ODB> pelo yeah
[23:18] <zcat[1]> GIn_: no.
[23:18] <Pelo> GIn_, not realy , you need to intall themes howver
[23:18] <ODB> i even enabled sound devices for root
[23:18] <ODB> just now didn't change anything
[23:18] <andi5_> Draconicus: just for confirmation, does /etc/apt/sources.list show universe for gutsy or feistsy?
[23:19] <GIn_> I have installed a theme, but I don't any how I can apply it :\
[23:19] <Draconicus> andi5_: Yes, of course.
[23:19] <Pelo> !sound | ODB did you reveiew this ?
[23:19] <ubotu> ODB did you reveiew this ?: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[23:19] <zcat[1]> GIn_: just install emerald package then alt-F2 and type 'emerald --replace' in the box
[23:19] <Draconicus> andi5_: Oh, sorry. Lemme check
[23:19] <RAdams> I need to restore rhythmbox back to ALL of its default settings. I tried doing a "complete removal" with synaptic and re-installing, but this didn't work. suggestions?
[23:19] <LjL> wof: Konversation here.
[23:19] <ODB> let me check
[23:19] <nickrud> RAdams  gconf-tool --recursive-unset  /apps/rhythmbox
[23:19] <jj3666> quit
[23:19] <GIn_> zcat[1]: thanks, worked
[23:19] <wof> conversation?
[23:20] <ay> RAdams: does rhythmbox have any settingsfiles stored in you /home/user/?
[23:20] <wof> NO means of conversation, just browsing
[23:20] <LjL> wof: Konversation. the IRC client. i thought you wanted to know since you VERSION'd me.
[23:20] <wof> oh dear...
[23:20] <wof> bitchx-1.1-final freebsd 6.3-stable(corp) cypress.1.0k stock
[23:20] <wof> =D
[23:20] <nickrud> RAdams also, delete ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox
[23:20] <LjL> wof, are you versioning everyone in the channel or something?
[23:20] <RAdams> nickrud: there is no "gconf-tool"
[23:20] <tim167> hi, i am trying to dd a damaged disk onto a new one, it starts the copying but after a while it stops and doesnt finish, what can i do ? thanks
[23:21] <nickrud> RAdams sorry, typo: gconftool
[23:21] <Draconicus> andi5_: Gutsy
[23:21] <nickrud> RAdams always mix that one up with gconf-editor
[23:21] <|Porsche> would anybody know why if a setup a firewall startup script with update-rc.d the script blocks all the traffic, but if i mounted manually after i log in it works with no problem?
[23:21] <andi5_> Draconicus: you could also check the files in /var/lib/apt/lists, i think
[23:21] <wof> ljl, Forgive me ... I just do it so often on EFNet without anyone caring ... its hard for me to forget can't do it on other nets that easy :p
[23:21] <ay> |Porsche: does it perhaps block anything nonroot?
[23:21] <wof> boredom really
[23:22] <LjL> wof: well, please don't do it here :)
[23:22] <elmer> I give up. I can't find a download for ruby-gtk2
[23:22] <thenetduck> nickrud, hey it worked but I haded to install it with aptitude also, for some reason it isntalled firefox beta 5
[23:22] <wof> ljl, not allowed on freenode?
[23:22] <thenetduck> weird
[23:22] <elmer> Anybody know where to get ruby-gtk2?
[23:22] <tim167> can i tell dd to skip bad sectors ?
[23:22] <Pelo> wof please don't
[23:22] <nickrud> thenetduck are you on hardy?
[23:22] <RAdams> nickrud: that worked, but didn't reset what I was hoping. You know the profiles for perferred formats under "music" tab? I want to reset those, and add a new one.
[23:22] <thenetduck> nickrud, nope
[23:22] <andi5_> elmer: sudo apt-get install ruby-gnome2?
[23:23] <Pelo> elmer, have you searched in the repos ?
[23:23] <|Porsche> what do i have to change so that it would allow nonroot traffic through?
[23:23] <elmer> andi5_, O RLY? It's not ruby-gtk2?
[23:23] <elmer> that may be my problem
[23:23] <nickrud> thenetduck that's odd it did that .. Do you have backports enabled?
[23:23] <thenetduck> nickrud, that is weird
[23:23] <ODB> pelo yeah i checked the SoundTroubleshootingSolutionsGuide
[23:23] <unop_> I have backups of my old internet explorer bookmarks from a few years ago -  a folder containing .url files, any way i can import these into firefox?
[23:23] <fade_> I have a problem when I have a full screen application and then it goes to a window and I can't do anything alt-tab doesnt work or anything can anyone help me?
[23:23] <thenetduck> nickrud, what are backports
[23:23] <Pelo> ODB, that's all I have for you
[23:24] <andi5_> elmer: libgtk2-ruby1.8
[23:24] <ay> |Porsche: I don't know, but I just know sometimes running things at boot/log-in(I really don't know which) could result in running as root
[23:24] <elmer> andi5_, Oh, OK.
[23:24] <nickrud> RAdams not sure what you mean there. You can delete ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox as well, maybe it's in the database
[23:24] <ODB> it's listed when i do aplay -l and lspci -v
[23:24] <Draconicus> andi5_: All clear.
[23:24] <ay> |Porsche: learnt from my many days hacking away with DSL :D
[23:24] <tim167> if i get input/output error from dd, how can i tell it to skip that sector ? thanks
[23:24] <nickrud> thenetduck a repo that includes newer stuff than was available on release, the only place that firefox 3 would be
[23:24] <RAdams> nickrud: tried that. What I mean is under Edit --> Preferences --> Music --> Preferred Format
[23:24] <|Porsche> ok well thanks for the pointer, i will go investigate
[23:24] <|Porsche> hehe
[23:25] <Pelo> later folks
[23:25] <andi5_> tim167: stop it there and restart with an offset on input and output
[23:25] <elmer> thanks andi5_ !
[23:25] <thenetduck> nickrud, oh my software sources are all gusty
[23:25] <ay> |Porsche: Do so, glhf :)
[23:25] <thenetduck> nickrud, i just checked that
[23:25] <|Porsche> thanks you do the same ;)
[23:25] <nickrud> thenetduck look for gutsy-backports
[23:25] <thenetduck> ok
[23:26] <GIn_> zcat[1]: how do I set it back to compiz?
[23:26] <kyncani> tim167: conv=noerror, or use gddrescue
[23:26] <nickrud> RAdams that's not rhythmbox, try  gconf-editor /apps/sound-juicer , you might find it in there
[23:26] <sveakex> hey, if i were to install a beta version of ubuntu 8.04
[23:26] <sveakex> could i update it to the released version later?
[23:26] <zero88> how do you force quit in FluxBox?
[23:26] <RAdams> nickrud: the preferences set through rhythmbox depend on soundjuicer?
[23:26] <ay> sveakex think so, but it's due in 11 days
[23:26] <Pici> !final > sveakex (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[23:26] <andi5_> zero88: killall fluxbox ;-)
[23:27] <tim167> kyncani thanks ill try gddrescure
[23:27] <Pici> sveakex: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Hardy/8.04 support/discussion.
[23:27] <nickrud> RAdams rhythmbox uses sound juicer for ripping iirc
[23:27] <ay> zero88: killing fluxbox?
[23:27] <MrStitch> Hoochie Mama! That's a lotta people......
[23:27] <RAdams> nickrud: makes sense thanks
[23:27] <zero88> ay andi5_  i jsut want to kill a specific process
[23:27] <thenetduck> nickrud, nope but I have two other ones... one for my Miro player and nother for KDE4 from launchpad I am going to disable the kde one (don't eve use kde anyway) update and try again
[23:27] <andi5_> zero88: then check ps faux output and kill the correct pid :)
[23:27] <Draconicus> andi5_: Could you maybe send me your clean sources.list file? I think there must be something wrong with mine. It's been hand-modified and auto-updated since Dapper. It could be full of weirdness.
[23:27] <ay> zero88: do this, open terminal ps aux | grep "you APP"
[23:28] <nickrud> thenetduck stop
[23:28] <ay> kill "pid"
[23:28] <zero88> andi5_, sorry how do i do that
[23:28] <tim167> kyncani: would it be harmful to interrupt dd while it is copying ?
[23:28] <thenetduck> nickrud, ok
[23:28] <elmer> hmm...
[23:28] <zero88> ay ty
[23:28] <MrStitch> hmmm... am I gunna have to take a number to ask a question? ;)
[23:28] <nickrud> thenetduck you can determine the repo with   apt-cache policy firefox
[23:28] <ay> MrStitch: nope ;)
[23:28] <andi5_> Draconicus: you modified those files? ... hm, remove them all and issue "sudo apt-get update"
[23:28] <ay> Tho I'm outta here for now, the wife commands me
[23:28] <zero88> ay what if ur not sure of the name of the process?
[23:28] <MrStitch> Well then... here we go....
[23:28] <Pici> !ask
[23:28] <ubotu> Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[23:28] <Draconicus> andi5_: Only sources.list, to add a few back when you had to do it that way. Some eye candy repos.
[23:28] <andi5_> Draconicus: oops, sources.list, i am sorry, it is late
[23:28] <ay> then you could type "top"
[23:29] <ay> and se if its in there
[23:29] <elmer> anybody know a way to install ruby-gettext?
[23:29] <ay> I think
[23:29] <zero88> ty
[23:29] <ay> nn
[23:29] <kyncani> tim167: nope, and i prefer to use gddrescue than dd with conv=noerror, but that's just me
[23:29] <zero88> ay i think top is for power usage
[23:29] <andi5_> Draconicus: i cannot send you anything because i am not at linux right now... but does the gui add the repos when after you moved the file away?
[23:29] <nickrud> Draconicus don't know what all you have there, but if they were for dapper, you'll almost certainly want to remove them
[23:29] <merouen> hello
[23:29] <ay> zero88: oh I just took a guess you needed to kill the most consuming process
[23:29] <ay> :)
[23:29] <ay> you could typ ps aux
[23:29] <ay> and scroll through it
[23:30] <zero88> ay thanls
[23:30] <tim167> kyncani: ok, i apt-get installed gddrescue, but still gddrescue gives "command not found", where is the program ?
[23:30] <nickrud> or feisty or any other not matching your current release, Draconicus
[23:30] <Draconicus> nickrud: No no no, just the format. The distro name has been changed to Edgy and Feisty and then to Gutsy through the respective upgrades. I started with Dapper, though.
[23:30] <andi5_> tim167: you could test by issueing "dpkg -L gddrescue"
[23:30] <nickrud> Draconicus format is the same, just the names have changed ;)
[23:30] <Tigerplug> blogmeet
[23:30] <kyncani> tim167: it's called ddrescue i think, and check the manpage
[23:30] <viator> whats a easy to use video editing application my daughter could use to edit videos before placing them on you-tube?
[23:31] <Draconicus> nickrud: Tell that to the five entries that no longer work. :P
[23:31] <merouen> i wanna expose exposition for open src and especially linux ,  do you know where can i find some docs explaining open source and linux , why linux  ?
[23:31] <Draconicus> nickrud: I think I was in a beta at one point. My memory's not so good.
[23:31] <viator> she is 8
[23:31] <merouen> why should use linux
[23:31] <nickrud> Draconicus put your copy up on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[23:31] <thenetduck> nickrud, It said it installed firefox 2.0

[23:31] <nickrud> thenetduck type   ls -l $(which firefox)
[23:31] <Tigerplug> merouen - you'll never know until you try. Ubuntu is the way to go if you are thinking about it!

[23:33] <merouen> this the good question
[23:33] <nickrud> thenetduck then you should be running the firefox 2, I don't see how you're getting the beta. Unless the launcher points elsewhere;  exit all firefox windows, do ps -A | grep firefox to be sure it's not running, then type   /usr/bin/firefox
[23:33] <merouen> you wanna help me after all
[23:33] <merouen> :)
[23:33] <RobC269> Could anyone offer a suggestion here? I've been using Linux for a short time, however only used Live CDs until now, such as Slax. I would like to install Ubuntu in a seperate parition to dual boot, as Windows Xp is totally busted so I can't load it (recovery console won't even let me fix >.> damned MS..) but my files are still intact - and that is how I would like them to remain. HOWEVER - the problem is I am now at the (manual) parition page of the insta
[23:34] <nickrud> RobC269 are you using the live desktop?
[23:34] <RobC269> yes
[23:34] <MrStitch> I've acquired an old server from a friend. Cute little machine... It's got an Intel board, 1ghz processor, on-board SCSI, two 17gig 10k rpm IBM drives, and the usual other small peripherals. I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but it keeps giving errors, and the error I get will depend on changes I make in the bios while trouble shooting. At first, I figured maybe Ubuntu wasn't able to read/write through the on-board scsi controller. But then I ditched the scsi

[23:35] <Draconicus> nickrud: Here's the monstrosity: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63119/   Looking back, I'm not even sure where some of those lines came from.
[23:35] <thenetduck> nickrud, i will restart
[23:35] <nickrud> RobC269 you should use the partition editor to resize the ntfs partition, so you have some empty space to install to
[23:35] <jessica_lilly> dose firefox beta work now i found it crashed with me all the time is it any better ?
[23:36] <Andropov> hi people.. I'm having problems with my screen resolution.. I configured my 19 LCD monitor with a 140x900 res, but there are two black stripes on the sides... what can I do?
[23:36] <Andropov> 14400x900
[23:36] <Andropov> 1440.. :P
[23:36] <RobC269> Is that not what I have open now? (step 4 of 7) or is that in one of the menus?
[23:37] <RobC269> im using irc through laptop, installing on desktop
[23:37] <nickrud> RobC269 not sure, I don't have that disk at hand.

[23:40] <RAdams> nickrud: yes, but any profile I create doesn't show up in the list
[23:40] <nickrud> RAdams you did the steps at the bottom of the preferences section of sound-juicer help?
[23:40] <MrStitch> Isn't there a command to disable the showing of who joined and left on irc?

[23:44] <zoidberg> does anyone know whats going on?
[23:44] <nickrud> RAdams yes, I see that
[23:44] <nickrud> Draconicus yes, you did. Or, I got sidetracked and missed it
[23:44] <nickrud> Draconicus found it
[23:45] <Draconicus> nickrud: Ah. Good. Have a look at the mess. :P
[23:45] <nickrud> Draconicus first look, you do not want   'web'  on any line
[23:45] <zoidberg> hey guys, I was looking for jobs at the ubuntu website but the email addresses i think are wrong...i keep getting undelivearble mail messages instead
[23:45] <zoidberg> does anyone know whats going on?
[23:46] <Draconicus> nickrud: 'kay. What does 'web' indicate? I don't remember where I got that.
[23:46] <nickrud> Draconicus no freaking clue, except that it's not right :)
[23:46] <Draconicus> nickrud: Hehe. Alright. :P
[23:47] <Draconicus> nickrud: That line near the bottom is crazy. I have no clue where it came from. It's like an attempt at an all-in-one repo line.
[23:47] <RobC269> partition editor isnt opening, I've told it to open thru system menu about 5 times now - should I just restart Ubuntu?
[23:48] <RobC269> seems to be going pretty slow with the installation prog running

[23:48] <nickrud> RobC269 erm, installation going already? too late for gparted
[23:49] <jorgerosa> Hello all
[23:49] <nickrud> Draconicus the proposed? that's a well formed line, you can collect each component from each resource into one line like that.
[23:49] <RobC269> no - its not actually installing, just at step 4, the bit where u handle partitions - so Im presuming it hasn't done anything at all yet
[23:49] <nickrud> Draconicus except for the  'web', of course
[23:50] <dmsuperman> Ok, I have a question.  Once I move my mouse off it and back, it disappears, but it bugs me. You can see a screenshot at http://dmsuperman.com/ss.png
[23:50] <Draconicus> nickrud: Huh. I did always wonder about that. Is it reundant at all? I can't really look right now.
[23:50] <dmsuperman> Any clues what causes that?
[23:50] <tim167> i am trying ddrescue to recover a disk, it stalls at 3215MB, no error messages, is there anything i can do ?

[23:52] <Draconicus> nickrud: Gotcha. I always only hada vague understanding of what these apt lines mean. You've really cleared it up for me. I remember back on breezy I would add "universe multiverse" to every line, back before Synaptic got all sophisticated and took the fun out of it. :P
[23:52] <talash> what can I do?
[23:54] <talash> and which directory is it supposed to be installed in if it is not in the path?
