[08:06] <MehAdult> mgorbach: Usually you need a SMP kernel.
[08:06] <rdz> how can i add a script to the "gnome session startup programs"?
[08:06] <mgorbach> iv got one
[08:06] <nightcoder> ydnar: you can download sources if it are not in repos yet ... or you can wait a few days ...
[08:06] <mgorbach> tried both the k7 and the i686
[08:07] <MehAdult> Did you choose it while booting?
[08:07] <ydnar> is it easy to install the sources?
[08:07] <mgorbach> yep
[08:07] <soundray> mgorbach: you need the k8
[08:07] <blibbity123> mwe: but I have nothing to create it from, i need the config file it comes with so I can modify it per the wiki instructions
[08:07] <MehAdult> It gives you several options
[08:07] <mgorbach> Linux montecarlo 2.6.15-23-k7 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue May 23 14:20:54 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[08:07] <tijn> i have installed my ati card drivers (ubuntu ones), d3d works, but i have installe COD and it says my driver are bad
[08:07] <troytroy> soundray: totem works for u?
[08:07] <green_earz> mgorbach:  i think its the smp kernel you need
[08:07] <nightcoder> Xchat 2.6.2 has some feature that you need (especifically) ?
[08:07] <MehAdult> mgorbach: Sounds like the wrong kernel.
[08:07] <SpirosChronis> anyone: I am having such a problem getting my wireless pcmcia card working. i have installed ipw2200 and still no luck. The thing doesn't even show the power light. could anyone help???
[08:07] <avis> mgorbach, i think your good
[08:07] <DBO> soundray, he shouldnt need the 64 bit kernel for dual core, just the smp kern
[08:07] <mgorbach> shouldnt it be showing two processors if i do cat /proc/cpuinfo
[08:07] <ydnar> nightcoder, not really.
[08:07] <nightcoder> ydnar: install 2.6.1
[08:07] <ydnar> but thank you very much for your help
[08:07] <MehAdult> mgorbach: Once you get the right kernel.
[08:07] <ydnar> ok
[08:08] <soundray> mgorbach: it's possible that you have to activate a BIOS option before you will.
[08:08] <mgorbach> iv got SMP ... is there something else i need?
[08:08] <MehAdult> ydnar: On Mandriva I can get 2.6.2 and I have 2.6.1 on Dapper and you're not missing much.
[08:08] <iiiears> nightcoder - it is vastly changed. with a simplified interface. - I miss some faamiliar features
[08:08] <mgorbach> well ... windows is detected the dual core correctly
[08:08] <mgorbach> i dont think its a bios issue
[08:08] <ydnar> nightcoder, will it update automatically later?
[08:08] <MehAdult> soundray: Good point.
[08:08] <SpirosChronis> Hello All, i am having such a problem getting my wireless pcmcia card working. I am the biggest NoooB. i have installed ipw220 and still no luck. The thing doesn't even show the power light
[08:08] <nightcoder> ydnar: yes
[08:08] <MehAdult> mgorbach: Did you buy this computer with the X2?
[08:08] <ch_604> soundray, thx ^^
[08:08] <mgorbach> yep
[08:08] <mgorbach> got it built at a shop here
[08:08] <mwe> blibbity123: yeah I guess the wiki is deprecated
[08:08] <MehAdult> Did it ever work like on Winblows or anything?
[08:09] <nightcoder> iiiears: sorry, I dont know what changes was made in Xchat 2.6.2
[08:09] <mgorbach> windows came installed and works correctly showing  two processors
[08:09] <troytroy> hi anybody using totem here
[08:09] <MehAdult> Ok.
[08:09] <crimsun> mgorbach: are you running -686?
[08:09] <green_earz> mgorbach: what dose uname -a say ?
[08:09] <SpirosChronis> help please
[08:09] <ydnar> iiiears, you like v.2.6.1 better?
[08:09] <brosio> is possible found an usb to serial converter that isn't linux compatible
[08:09] <mwe> blibbity123: you should read /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.Debian instead
[08:09] <brosio> ?
[08:09] <t35t0r> anyone know how to set a central plugin directory environment variable for opera? OPERA_PLUGIN_PATH doesn't work
[08:09] <soundray> SpirosChronis: have you read the wiki pages?

[08:10] <mlehrer> is Dapper going to stay with 2.6.15?
[08:10] <spikeb> yes
[08:10] <crimsun> mlehrer: yes.
[08:10] <soundray> mlehrer: yes
[08:10] <mlehrer> i need 2.6.16 for some driver updates
[08:10] <tijn> hmz, when i install orignal ATi drivers, and i run aticonfig, i get aticonfig: error while loading shared libraries: libfglrx_pp.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[08:10] <SpirosChronis> soundray: which pages should i read?
[08:10] <iiiears> nightcoder - I just installed it so am not comeplete in all the changes but The logged in names have been moved to the left. (meh) nick comepletion using a comma is gone. spell checking is added. etc.
[08:10] <mlehrer> but i really don't want to start maintaining my own kernel fork on Yet Another distro
[08:10] <crimsun> mlehrer: we've backported many of them from .16 and .17-git
[08:10] <mgorbach> im pretty much stuck here ...
[08:11] <soundray> SpirosChronis: read ubotu's line on wireless ^^
[08:11] <brosio> i have an athlon64 but i'm running dapper i386 is better that i use a k7 kernel or not ?
[08:11] <bliss_> soundray http://pastebin.ca/62212---why three entries for one vmware machine?
[08:11] <simulcra> hello, how do i detect my external modem? thanks
[08:11] <mlehrer> crimsun: this is Alsa, the snd-intel driver
[08:11] <mgorbach> perhaps i need a kernel switch?
[08:11] <paolob> Hi guys! Still unresolved the problem of a usb epson printer unseen by gnome-cups-manager. Any one knows something?
[08:11] <mgorbach> on boot?
[08:11] <green_earz> mgorbach: and cat /proc/cpuinfo
[08:11] <mlehrer> crimsun: S/PDIF doesn't work properly on the older driver release, the maintainers claim that the "latest" alsa fixes it as of a few weeks ago
[08:11] <soundray> mgorbach: have you looked at the BIOS? It could be setting that Linux honours, but Windows overrides.
[08:11] <crimsun> mlehrer: I personally backported hda-intel from hg-git, so it's newer than what's in 1.0.11.
[08:11] <SpirosChronis> soundray: Thanks, i'll have a look see. ndiswrapper didn't work for me
[08:11] <crummage> brb
[08:11] <green_earz> mgorbach: pastbin
[08:11] <MehAdult> mgorbach: Is your BIOS updated to the latest?
[08:11] <mlehrer> crimsun: excellent
[08:12] <mgorbach> ok ... 1sec
[08:12] <zach_> can someone help me set VLC to defualt video player and banshee to default audio player?
[08:12] <MehAdult> That's another thing to try with 939

[08:12] <mgorbach> http://pastebin.com/760288

[08:12] <mgorbach> thats /proc/cpuinfo
[08:12] <squid> #ubuntu-es
[08:12] <mgorbach> bios is updated
[08:12] <MehAdult> CarinArr: Yeah. I'm new here because I just installed KUbuntu 6.06 to try it out.
[08:12] <whiter> hello, i dont have any sound when trying to play mp3's with any media player
[08:12] <mlehrer> crimsun: ok cool.  what kind of motherboard do you use with that driver?
[08:12] <whiter> including mplayer
[08:12] <soundray> brosio: k7 will make better use of your CPU than 386
[08:13] <crimsun> mlehrer: I don't use it. I just do sound for Ubuntu kernels.
[08:13] <tijn> hmz
[08:13] <CarinArr> does anyone know if there's an easy way to display a warning message when someone chooses to reboot from the gdm menu?
[08:13] <Bizzeh> where does ubuntu install the linux headers too?
[08:13] <mgorbach> motherboard is ASUS a8r-mvp
[08:13] <brosio> are u sure ?
[08:13] <tijn> Bizzeh: /usr/src
[08:13] <tijn> afaik
[08:13] <HymnToLife> !kernelheaders
[08:13] <ubotu> kernelheaders is, like, To install the kernal headers do sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[08:13] <MehAdult> It's got the HT flag on the thing.
[08:13] <zOap> Does anyone know if it is possible to specify the firefox width, height and alignment from top, left?
[08:13] <avis> someone said the 386 kernel would be more resource intensive than a 686 on a p4 intel ?
[08:13] <soundray> brosio: why are you asking that? It's rude.
[08:13] <Hattori> where to set the 128bit wep key on ubuntu?
[08:14] <avis> or rather the other way around
[08:14] <hmpedersen> Allright.. Can anyone tell me..
[08:14] <hmpedersen> No nevermind
[08:14] <crimsun> avis: 386 would hardly do that
[08:14] <ghozt> !xgl
[08:14] <ubotu> somebody said xgl was "XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/"
[08:14] <RadiantFire> avis, 386 can't use the nifty execution paths that have been put into a p4
[08:14] <HymnToLife> avis > The 686 will give better perfs
[08:14] <avis> For easy WPA support in Ubuntu 6.06, install the package network-manager-gnome, then log out and in. Otherwise, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WPAHowto
[08:14] <DBO> avis, a 686 kernel would better take advantage of your processor
[08:14] <crimsun> mgorbach: have you booted with ht=on?
[08:14] <avis> ok
[08:14] <avis> thank you
[08:14] <avis> i can't reboot now
[08:14] <DagaZ> I need a little help... does anyone know how to change mode on a usbdrive? sudo doesn't work..
[08:14] <mgorbach> nope ... is that what is needed?

[08:14] <crimsun> mgorbach: I don't know offhand, because I don't know the core duos that well.
[08:14] <tijn> hmz, when i install orignal ATi drivers, and i run aticonfig, i get aticonfig: error while loading shared libraries: libfglrx_pp.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[08:14] <brosio> soundray: are u sure
[08:14] <brosio> ?
[08:14] <brosio> :D
[08:15] <tijn> someone? plz
[08:15] <mgorbach> crimsun, this is not a core duo ... its an X2
[08:15] <NoUse> tijn did you install the drivers via synaptic?
[08:15] <crimsun> mgorbach: I have no idea what that terminology means
[08:15] <st0ne> hi
[08:15] <tijn> NoUse: yes
[08:15] <tijn> thats work
[08:15] <Bizzeh> HymnToLife: where do they install to though?
[08:15] <MehAdult> crimsun: He has an AMD processor.
[08:15] <tijn> but
[08:15] <DBO> crimsun, he means he has an AMD processor, not an intel
[08:15] <MehAdult> crimsun: It has NO HyperThreading.
[08:16] <Intangir> all of my fonts look the same, where in the repositories can i get alot of good fonts?
[08:16] <tijn> to play COD is probally need the original ATi drivers
[08:16] <mgorbach> oh ok crimsun ... its just processor branding
[08:16] <MehAdult> !ati
[08:16] <ubotu> it has been said that ati is http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/ch04.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers.
[08:16] <mgorbach> MehAdult, so any suggestions?
[08:16] <green_earz> mgorbach: it looks like its a 64 bit  ?
[08:16] <mgorbach> yes
[08:16] <NoUse> tijn I don't use ATI so I'm not sure, but make sure the installation script ran ok
[08:16] <MehAdult> green_earz: It's def. 64 bit.
[08:16] <mgorbach> but im running 32bit ubuntu
[08:16] <tijn> NoUse i ran ok, but, after install run aticonfig
[08:16] <MehAdult> 32 or 64 bit makes no difference or shouldn't.
[08:17] <crimsun> mgorbach: can you boot with "smp-alt-disable" ?
[08:17] <tijn> that gives me an error
[08:17] <Alacrit> oh it does, it does..
[08:17] <ghozt> is xgl going to be standard next release?
[08:17] <crimsun> mgorbach: that should force it into smp mode.
[08:17] <soundray> ghozt: unlikely
[08:17] <crimsun> mgorbach: also, please pastebin current ``dmesg |grep -i smp''
[08:17] <green_earz> mgorbach: i bets that the problem you are running a 32 bit install
[08:17] <binks120> does anyone no howto get tovid to create better quality video
[08:17] <NoUse> tijn you might try googling that error message
[08:18] <ghozt> :(
[08:18] <crimsun> MehAdult: thanks for the clarification
[08:18] <mirak> where am I supposed to put  "dmesg -n 1" to have it at bootup ?
[08:18] <bliss_> soundray: did you see my post
[08:18] <mgorbach> why would that cause issues?
[08:18] <MehAdult> crimsun: You're welcome.
[08:18] <crimsun> mirak: /etc/rc.local, for instance
[08:18] <tijn> NoUse ok i will look further
[08:18] <tijn> thnx
[08:18] <sergiol> is that what i want

[08:19] <mgorbach> crimsun, http://pastebin.com/760311
[08:19] <MehAdult> In debian I could do apt-file something or another.
[08:19] <DBO> apt-get
[08:19] <mirak> crimsun: there is no thing to be put in /etc/default for exemple ?
[08:19] <crimsun> MehAdult: apt-file, or use packages.ubuntu.com's search.
[08:19] <soundray> bliss_: I am not an expert on vmware (or on any other proprietary technology)
[08:19] <crimsun> mirak: use /etc/rc.local, which was merged specifically for that.
[08:19] <MehAdult> Hmm apt-file wasn't installed.
[08:19] <MehAdult> Thanks :)
[08:20] <mirak> ah ok
[08:20] <wastrel> apt-file isn't installed by default
[08:20] <wastrel> i had cheap chinese for lunch
[08:20] <crimsun> mgorbach: yep, precisely as I suspected. Boot with smp-alt-disable
[08:20] <bliss_> soundary:ok what about the rest the space is my problem i mentioned vmwarwe as an afterthought
[08:20] <mgorbach> so ... i boot that into the grub menu file?
[08:20] <zach_> can anyone help me get and ATi and fglrx working for dual monitors?
[08:21] <crimsun> mgorbach: I'd test it first by editing the grub kernel command line

[08:25] <NoUse> __doc__ ok, try 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop && sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start'
[08:25] <soundray> mirak: in that case, you can set a spindown timeout with hdparm (no need for laptop-mode)
[08:25] <jhons1> Is Dapper's live cd also the install CD?
[08:25] <DBO> yes
[08:25] <NoUse> jhons1 yes

[08:25] <__doc__> NoUse: same thing
[08:25] <jhons1> How do I install Ubuntu then??
[08:25] <bliss_> soundray: your quite correct its attacking me and the rest?
[08:26] <soundray> mirak: 'sudo apt-get install hdparm', then edit /etc/hdparm.conf (bit hairy, but full of examples)
[08:26] <tahorg> jhons1: choose install at boot time
[08:26] <Bizzeh> is there a sudo option i can use to stop needing to use it in this 1 terminal session?
[08:26] <DBO> jhons1, there should be an icon on your desktop on the live CD that says install

[08:31] <altprsona> how do i remove the pcimia , brltty, and pcimia-utils from my bootup process
[08:31] <nightcoder> LordElph: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:31] <Ron_o> always DBO? :_)
[08:32] <NoUse> __doc__ run 'sudo modprobe nvidia'
[08:32] <LordElph> nightcoder: heh, that easy :) thanks
[08:32] <spikeb> DBO, there was a short beta test of 8.5 for linux, but the final never appeared
[08:32] <DBO> Ron_o, unless its something like samba or proftpd...
[08:32] <iiiears> dos000 - aptitude is also good (CLI)
[08:32] <Ron_o> or when in doubt?
[08:32] <Ron_o> OK..
[08:32] <Ron_o> thanks.
[08:32] <dos000> iiiears, i need the name of the package that does the does the hd install from the live cd
[08:32] <troytroy> nightcoder: hi how do i switch on code highlighting in vim
[08:32] <Intangir> where do i get msttcorefonts
[08:32] <soundray> mirak: for a disk that you don't use at all, don't use laptop-mode. Use /etc/hdparm.conf (-S option)
[08:32] <nightcoder> syntax on
[08:32] <__doc__> NoUse: FATAL: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.15-23-386/volatile/nvidia.ko': No such file or directory
[08:32] <nightcoder> troytroy: set syntax on
[08:33] <NoUse> __doc__ you don't have the kernel drier installed
[08:33] <wastrel> ok the new version of mutt in dapper no longer works with my old .muttrc to login to my imap server.  anyone got an idea how to fix this?  i've been trying different things but :[
[08:33] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Intangir -about fonts
[08:33] <nightcoder> troytroy: to make it default, create a .vimrc and add 'syntax on' in it
[08:33] <NoUse> __doc__ did you follow the wiki HOWTO?
[08:33] <mirak> soundray: I might mount it occasionaly
[08:33] <__doc__> NoUse: which one?
[08:33] <DBO> !nvidia
[08:33] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia, or http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1083433&postcount=3
[08:33] <soundray> mirak: still, you're better off with hdparm alone.
[08:33] <iiiears> dos000 - I am sorry, no idea on that one. maybe one of the more experienced users here has the answer.
[08:33] <hmpedersen> Hmm.. Right now my laptop sounds like a dotmatrix printer.. It's retrieving 874 files from cd..
[08:33] <amarokker> Hello all, i am unable to get any sound anymore....it was working yesterday's well...and I dont recall making any changes to the configuration-
[08:33] <NoUse> __doc__ the one ubotu just posted
[08:34] <soundray> mirak: laptop-mode is advantageous only when you want to spin down a disk with Linux filesystems on it.
[08:34] <mirak> soundray: lol, laptop mode is that bad ? I found the config of laptop mode a bit handier
[08:34] <mirak> soundray: what do you mean ?
[08:34] <Ron_o> amarokker, did you restart the computer?
[08:34] <troytroy> nightcoder: thanks
[08:34] <Ron_o> or anything?
[08:35] <DBO> amarokker, does "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp" make any noise?
[08:35] <mirak> soundray: you mean mounted devices only or filesstem?
[08:35] <amarokker> yeah, several times...
[08:35] <amarokker> wait a bit.
[08:35] <__doc__> NoUse: I ran sudo apt-get install nvidia-kernel-common nvidia-glx
[08:35] <amarokker> DBO: nada-
[08:35] <Ron_o> do you see a speaker type device no your gnome panel?
[08:35] <dos000> anyone: what is the installer name ??/
[08:35] <Ron_o> what's it say when you put your mouse over it or click on it.
[08:35] <DBO> amarokker, what kinda sound hardware do you have?
[08:35] <__doc__> NoUse: but nvidia-kernel-common was already installed
[08:35] <NoUse> __doc__ ok, but thats not what the howto states you should do
[08:36] <NoUse> __doc__ you need to get the restricted-modules package, read the howot
[08:36] <__doc__> NoUse: the howto tells me to do the same over the gui package manager
[08:36] <soundray> mirak: laptop-mode changes the way buffering/caching is handled to control the risk of data loss in case of system crashes.
[08:36] <amarokker> DBO: have intel on board ac'97 and an audigy card.
[08:36] <__doc__> NoUse: I read that howto, and the restricted-modules package comes preinstalled with dapper
[08:36] <octan> i have just installed ubuntu(last version) on a compaq9030 that comes with the intel2200 wireless nic,everything works but the wireless.It detected by the system and it has been able to detect my wireless connection but a ping doesn work
[08:36] <DBO> amarokker, which are you using?
[08:36] <octan> have tried tons of things
[08:36] <octan> any hep will be great!
[08:36] <amarokker> the intel one-
[08:36] <soundray> mirak: you can of course use laptop-mode if it does what you want it to do.
[08:37] <__doc__> NoUse: i.e. in the gui thingy for packages it was already installed for the processor I use
[08:37] <mgorbach> figured it out
[08:37] <mirak> soundray: have you heard of some gui ?
[08:37] <mgorbach> cpus=2 did the trick
[08:37] <amarokker> i changed the asound.conf card's option to 'card 1' - earlier it was 0- after that i restarted (/etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart)
[08:37] <KenSentMe> octan: do you use any kind of security like wep or wpa?
[08:37] <DBO> amarokker, is it selected in system -> preferences -> sound ?
[08:37] <NoUse> __doc__ the howto doesn't even mention nvidia-kernel-common
[08:37] <marlun> If I need to set something at startup what should I use .bashrc or .bash_profile?
[08:38] <amarokker> yeah, DBO- it is
[08:38] <NoUse> __doc__ I would read it again and follow it closely
[08:38] <troytroy> nightcoder: am new to vim
[08:38] <__doc__> NoUse: no it doesn't, that's from http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=131267
[08:38] <soundray> mirak, no, but that doesn't mean that there isn't one.
[08:38] <Ron_o> Knoppix has an grea alsoconfig app that works wonders.
[08:38] <DBO> amarokker, both cards are showing in there?
[08:38] <soundray> mirak: use apt-cache search
[08:38] <amarokker> yeah, it is- right now, there's a hardware prob with the audigy card, so i am not using it anyway
[08:38] <__doc__> NoUse: because that binary install instructions got me where I am now. "couldn't load nvidia kernel module..."
[08:38] <troytroy> nightcoder: let say i want code highlighting for a file config what the command syntax
[08:38] <amarokker> i can hear this static noise though
[08:39] <amarokker> when i turn on the line jack sense
[08:39] <NoUse> __doc__ I understnad that, which is why I'm telling you to follow a different set of instructions
[08:39] <cusco> udes
[08:39] <DBO> amarokker, the command I gave you produces white noise, did you stop the command?
[08:39] <cusco> shipit.ubuntu.com only allow 10 cd's this time??
[08:39] <nightcoder> troytroy : syntax on too
[08:39] <cusco> is it possible to make a special request?
[08:39] <__doc__> NoUse: no you don't udnerstand. I *did* follow the binary howto before, and I ended up where I am now.
[08:39] <__doc__> NoUse: no difference
[08:40] <NoUse> __doc__ then you didnt' follow it correctly
[08:40] <cusco> we are going to have a presentation about linux and would like to have some cd's to offer
[08:40] <CarinArr> cusco, you could just burn some;)
[08:40] <M-Rev> Hi, when I try tro install Ubuntu 6.06, I get this errmsg: Invalid fs for this mountpoint.... ext3fs for / in partition #7 of SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sda)
[08:40] <cusco> altho other distros we are going to burn them, it would be advatage that we would have quite some large quantitty for people to take and try!
[08:40] <Drakonik> Is Ubuntu's partitioner non-destrucitce?
[08:40] <M-Rev> Tried with reiserfs too, but same result
[08:40] <__doc__> NoUse: when I execute that sudo nvidia-xconfig it configures something that will not boot for the same reason after ctrl+alt+backspace
[08:41] <__doc__> NoUse: and that was following the binary howto to the letter
[08:41] <wastrel> i h8 u
[08:41] <troytroy> nightcoder: eg "vim -syntax=on config" right?
[08:41] <DBO> __doc__, did you install the drivers from nvidias site or from repos?
[08:41] <cusco> is there really no way arround to make a special request?
[08:41] <mirak> soundray: I searched with synaptics but nothing
[08:42] <nightcoder> yes ... the easy way is to write a .vimrc and put 'syntax on' inside :P
[08:42] <__doc__> DBO: I did apt-get install nvidia-glx and I didn't need to install the restricted modules because they're already there
[08:42] <avis> the nvidia kernel i believe is on another repo
[08:42] <Drakonik> Is Ubuntu's partitioner non-destructive?
[08:42] <gnomefreak> __doc__: in dapper they are
[08:43] <__doc__> gnomefreak: I'm on installing dapper
[08:43] <Chousuke> Drakonik: it doesn't destroy anything you don't tell it to destroy.
[08:43] <gnomefreak> Drakonik: you mess up than yes it very much is destructive
[08:43] <DBO> __doc__, so "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`" doesnt do anything for you
[08:43] <Intangir> apparnetly the msttcorefonts arent in any of the repositories that are in ubuntu dapper by default anymore?
[08:43] <Intangir> or werent when i installed
[08:43] <Intangir> im nto sure which ones they are in
[08:43] <M-Rev> Hi, Need help installing Ubuntu 6.06. When I try tro install, I get this errmsg after setting up partitions: Invalid fs for this mountpoint.... ext3fs for / in partition #7 of SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sda). Same problem with reiserfs
[08:43] <Chousuke> Drakonik: if you modify a partition, the data on the partition is lost
[08:43] <Intangir> the wiki is out of date and doesnt help
[08:43] <Chousuke> Drakonik: but if you don't touch a partition, then the data is safe.
[08:43] <Drakonik> So there's no possible way for me to keep my XP install?
[08:43] <Intangir> nm i just found one that worked
[08:43] <NoUse> __doc__ did you install the nvidia-xconfig package?
[08:44] <troytroy> nightcoder: eg "vim -syntax=on config" did not work
[08:44] <Chousuke> Drakonik: the partitioner can also resize some filesystems
[08:44] <gnomefreak> Drakonik: why not everyone else does ;)
[08:44] <zach_> i have a mouse with backward and forward buttons how can i configure them to work in ubuntu and firefox?
[08:44] <Chousuke> gnomefreak: can parted resize ntfs?
[08:44] <jpoje> Drakonik: partition magic :)
[08:44] <Drakonik> Free?
[08:44] <Chousuke> partition magic isn't free. :)
[08:44] <octandeocho>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[08:44] <gnomefreak> Chousuke: yes i am pretty sure it can
[08:44] <__doc__> DBO: http://rafb.net/paste/results/n7ledC97.html
[08:44] <NoUse> Chousuke I used gparted to resize my ntfs drivesr a couple weeks ago, no prob
[08:44] <jpoje> No, it isn't free
[08:44] <avis> disk director by acronis is much better than partition magic
[08:44] <Drakonik> Hm.
[08:45] <jpoje> Of course I can't recommend copyright infringement...
[08:45] <spikeb> hah, partition maggot
[08:45] <Chousuke> Drakonik: so the ubuntu installer can resize your windows partitions
[08:45] <Burgwork> Chousuke, for NTFS, yes it is non-destructive
[08:45] <DBO> __doc__, ok, you have it installed, try "sudo apt-get install nvidia-kernel-common"
[08:45] <Drakonik> Well, I'd like a free partitioner that will resize my Windows without destorying it.
[08:45] <amarokker> DBO:  back.
[08:45] <nightcoder> troytroy: try open vim without parameters
[08:45] <__doc__> NoUse: there isn't really a way to do the Binary howto "wrong". I did follow it tree time taking great care, all the while arriving at the same result.
[08:45] <nightcoder> and, in interactive mode, type
[08:45] <oezguer> hi
[08:45] <nightcoder> : set syntax on
[08:45] <NoUse> __doc__ did you install the nvidia-xconfig package?
[08:45] <Drakonik> Chousuke: So I can resize my Windows install without losing it?
[08:45] <Chousuke> Drakonik: but you need to choose "edit partitions manually"
[08:45] <Chousuke> Drakonik: yes.
[08:45] <Drakonik> Awesome.
[08:45] <amarokker> and oh yes, i am using dapper
[08:45] <Chousuke> Drakonik: though always make backups of important data. :)
[08:46] <NoUse> __doc__ don't install it if you haven't
[08:46] <Drakonik> Thanks.
[08:46] <Chousuke> Drakonik: if you lose power or something goes wrong...
[08:46] <Drakonik> Yeah.
[08:46] <__doc__> NoUse: no nvidia-xconfig mutually exclusive with nvidia-xgl
[08:46] <Drakonik> Alright.
[08:46] <Drakonik> Edit partition manually, backup data...
[08:46] <NoUse> __doc__ yeah but I thought you mentioned something about it earlier
[08:46] <Drakonik> Keep my feet away from the power strip.
[08:46] <oezguer> i need help :( for Amsn , cos of firewall router  i cant use my cam at Amsn, anyone can help me?  a way without router setting!!!
[08:46] <__doc__> DBO: that apt-get install nvidia common kernel was what I did about 15 minutes ago
[08:46] <Drakonik> Gotcha.
[08:46] <gnomefreak> Drakonik: i would backup first ;)
[08:46] <__doc__> NoUse: no I didn't
[08:47] <Drakonik> Well, I didn't mean in that order.
[08:47] <Drakonik> It'd be silly.
[08:47] <gnomefreak> Drakonik: ive done it :(
[08:47] <zach_> anyone help with dual monitors?
[08:47] <Drakonik> Thanks for answering my questions.
[08:47] <b0ef> Drakonik: isn't your problem that you are trying to put / on a secondary partition?
[08:47] <__doc__> DBO: instructions from this manual here http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=131267
[08:47] <Drakonik> Yeah, but it's been taken care of b0ef.

[08:54] <nightcoder> M-Rev: try using /boot as a ext2 partition
[08:54] <CactusWiZaRd> btw, what's the difference between unrar and unrar-nonfree?
[08:54] <michaels> Azureus's warning are always rendered unreadably and the buttons don't work. anyone know what to do?
[08:54] <M-Rev> nightcoder: makes it easier to have multiple OS's, like Windows in addition
[08:55] <Czar> Whats does LTS stand for?
[08:55] <NoUse> M-Rev you can't have /boot as fat16
[08:55] <soundray> Selaiah: the ralink module in dapper doesn't support WPA as far as I know. You can compile a module with WPA support from more recent sources.
[08:55] <NoUse> Czar Long Term Support
[08:55] <nightcoder> M-Rev: Windows will not use /boot partition
[08:55] <M-Rev> nightcoder: Ubuntu lets me format my disks as ext2fs, ext3fs, reiserfs, so it should be supported
[08:55] <Czar> NoUse: As in Final Release? or is that still something different?
[08:55] <b0ef> M-Rev: grub will install itself in the MBR
[08:55] <NoUse> CactusWiZaRd nonfree is the proprietary version of unrar
[08:55] <KevinIN72> how do i go about installing apache
[08:56] <nightcoder> M-Rev: use ext2fs for your /boot partition
[08:56] <M-Rev> nightcoder: no, but Windows uses it as C:, the first partition, on a scsi-drive
[08:56] <Ron_o> in synapitc package manager, there is a section under <Status> > Not installed (residual config). I gather they are leftover files from deinstallations.
[08:56] <tanath> i'm trying to run a command like such: for i in pattern*; do echo $i; done   and it's not working because the file names have parentheses in them. how do i get around this?
[08:56] <NoUse> Czar its been released, it means its to be supported longer than other releases of ubuntu
[08:56] <soundray> !apache
[08:56] <ubotu> methinks apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[08:56] <Ron_o> it's safe to remove all of those, right?

[08:56] <b0ef> M-Rev: fsck /boot; there is no use for it
[08:56] <bliss_> whats the command line in parted to check size of partition?
[08:57] <NoUse> CactusWiZaRd proprietary?
[08:57] <tanath> i get zsh: no matches found:
[08:57] <b0ef> grub is able to access secondary partitions, isn't it?
[08:57] <CactusWiZaRd> NoUse: yup
[08:57] <tanath> can anyone help?
[08:57] <nightcoder> M-Rev: Let windows using only their single partition sdb5

[08:57] <soundray> Selaiah: I've seen wiki info on that, but I can't remember where exactly.

[09:00] <Shaezsche> its an hsf modem driver
[09:00] <Shaezsche> i have problems installing other programs that require compiling a kernel
[09:01] <b0ef> M-Rev: why do you need a /boot partition?; isn't grub able to access secondary partitions?
[09:01] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: are you using default ubuntu kernel ?
[09:01] <Shaezsche> such as acpi4asus
[09:01] <zach_> what do i need to type to enable dual monitors? with ati config
[09:01] <Shaezsche> default? i dont know i used the apt-get install linux headers command
[09:01] <Shaezsche> put a 2.6.15-23-386 in my usr/src
[09:01] <tanath> soundray: that's not right either
[09:01] <zach_> aticonfig --dtop=horizontal --overlay-on=1   I've been trying that but no luck
[09:01] <jjazz_> I am trying to get my ipw2200 wireless card working.  I can see it in lspci, but it doesn't show up in iwconfig.  I compiled and modprobed the modules recommended in various howtos, and I'm not sure what my next step would be.  Any advice would be appreciated.
[09:01] <tanath> soundray: find: paths must precede expression
[09:01] <tanath> Usage: find [-H]  [-L]  [-P]  [path...]  [expression]
[09:01] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: what error messages are you getting ?
[09:02] <Shaezsche> it cannot find prebuilt modules
[09:02] <nevchen_> bis spte
[09:02] <Shaezsche> it needs to configure and compile them i guess
[09:02] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: probably you will need to install kernel-source
[09:02] <Shaezsche> ok, what is the apt-get command for that?
[09:02] <M-Rev> b0ef: perhaps I dont need to mount it as /boot
[09:02] <b0ef> M-Rev: ask in #grub
[09:03] <tanath> how annoying. isn't there a simple way to get this command to work when the filenames contain parentheses? for i in pattern*; do echo $i; done
[09:03] <KevinIN72> Has anyone here ever ran a counterstrike source server on ubuntu
[09:03] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: sudo apt-get install linux-source

[09:03] <sergiol> goodbye
[09:03] <spine> can some1 plese explain to me how to get cdrecord to under ubuntu, i used a scsi scanbus sript and that returns: scsi subsystem not active so i cdrecord with devname and it warns me that devname is unsupported then it freezes, BTW i just burned a cd with devname but it wont let me do it again
[09:04] <macsim> hi, anybody use phpeclipse ?
[09:04] <gomek> anyone here have any clue how to set a screensaver on the gdm login screen?
[09:04] <mirak> is there a way to make the kernel use an USB KEY as a cashing media before loading data to hard drive to reduce the spining ?
[09:04] <wastrel> tanath:  works in bash...
[09:04] <b0ef> M-Rev: the only partitions you need is / and a swap
[09:04] <jtd> How do I remove Evolution's configuration files, or just all of Evolution itself so I can start over, without removing ubuntu-desktop as well?
[09:04] <MisterN> hi
[09:04] <spine> al the guis to cdrecord kill my X somehow
[09:04] <nightcoder> spine: are you using a scsi cd recorder ?
[09:04] <roicominutsoup> hi, is there a way to restore ubuntu configuration after a dpkg-reconfigure -a ?
[09:04] <Shaezsche> nightcoder that command does nto work, i get this error E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[09:04] <Shaezsche> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[09:04] <spine> nightcoder: IDE
[09:05] <jjazz_> Shaezsche: did you run it as root?
[09:05] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: probably synaptic is open
[09:05] <Ron_o> jtd, I think you're stuck with Evolution.
[09:05] <Shaezsche> i used the sudo command
[09:05] <gnomefreak> Shaezsche: it looks like you have maybe synaptic open?
[09:05] <tanath> wastrel: hrm, echo does work in bash, but oggdec gives file not found errors...
[09:05] <M-Rev> How would you prepare partitions for dual booting GNU/Windows ?
[09:05] <Shaezsche> lol yea
[09:05] <gnomefreak> Shaezsche: or another apt running?
[09:05] <Shaezsche> k thx
[09:05] <jjazz_> Shaezsche: Then, nightcoder is probably right.
[09:05] <mahogny> any way to check recently installed packages?
[09:05] <gnomefreak> Shaezsche: yw
[09:05] <nightcoder> spine: if youre using 2.6 version of kernel you wont need to emulate scsi
[09:05] <mahogny> a suitable log file somewhere?
[09:05] <Shaezsche> OH it looks like i ALREADY had that installed
[09:05] <jtd> Ron_o: I added a mail server to Evolution and it seems to make the app hang.  So I need to remove that server at the very least, but I have no idea where Evolution keeps its configuration files.
[09:06] <octandeocho> anyone help setting up wireless network?
[09:06] <b0ef> M-Rev: this is just a grub setting
[09:06] <Ron_o> I don't know either, jtd..
[09:06] <Shaezsche> now what?
[09:06] <gilianima> how to convert into utf8 an "AppleDouble encoded Macintosh file" ?
[09:06] <Ron_o> have you tried /home/<name>/.evolution?
[09:06] <jjazz_> I am trying to get my ipw2200 wireless card working.  I can see it in lspci, but it doesn't show up in iwconfig.  I compiled and modprobed the modules recommended in various howtos, and I'm not sure what my next step would be.  Any advice would be appreciated.
[09:06] <slackern> mahogny: /var/log/dpkg.log should contain that information for you
[09:06] <mahogny> slackern, thanks
[09:06] <Ron_o> the '.' means it's a hidden file so you must enable hidden files.
[09:06] <spine> nightcoder: so i just let it sit untill it burns it? i got impatient cuz it was only the Gparted live cd, that about 30MB
[09:06] <spine> thats*
[09:06] <jtd> ...
[09:06] <maikol> octandeocho: how far into are you
[09:06] <jtd> Wow, I'm a retard.
[09:06] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: let us to know what error messages are you getting
[09:06] <tanath> wastrel: why would echo work, but not oggdec?
[09:06] <jtd> thanks, Ron_o :)
[09:07] <nightcoder> spine: can you use gnomebaker ? or bonfire ? or k3b ?
[09:07] <juanbobo> hi people running live ubuntu cd to resize a hd  when i apply changes to gparted it goes to the routine but no message and it does not resize the partition,  any log to look at???????  TIA
[09:07] <wastrel> tanath:  echo just spits the string out to stdout, oggdec is then trying to open the file with unquoted special characters in the filename.
[09:07] <hmpedersen> Does dapper install continue after a raboot as breezy did?
[09:07] <zach_> gnomefreak: all that had for ati was an x11 file which was nothing like mine....nor did it have any info on setting up xinerama....
[09:07] <spine> nightcoder: gnome baker kills my X and so do most front ends to cdrecord
[09:07] <hmpedersen> reboot*
[09:07] <Shaezsche> ok its a long msg, should i copy paste in channel? or want me to pm you??
[09:07] <wastrel> tanath:  i'm not enough of a bash guru to fix it but maybe #bash can help
[09:08] <gnomefreak> zach_: it gave you 2 forums posts to look at to teach you how
[09:08] <Ron_o> juanbobo, you must start the changes after you apply them.
[09:08] <Ron_o> try up in the menu.
[09:08] <Ron_o> you should see changes on the screen.
[09:08] <nightcoder> spine: when you X die, did you see any error messages ?
[09:08] <nightcoder> Look in /var/log/messages
[09:08] <jjazz_> !tell Shaezsche about pastebin
[09:08] <Shaezsche> nightcoder here is the first msg i get No pre-built modules for: Ubuntu-6.06 linux-2.6.15-23-386 i686
[09:09] <juanbobo> i dont see the changes in the gparted gui  var log messages does not show naything
[09:09] <mirak> does hdparm.conf overrides the default hard drives settings ?
[09:09] <spine> nightcoder: well die isnt exactly the best word, but my system gets very sluggish and i run all the graphs on the taskbar and they report normal usage but the it freezes and i have to force reboot
[09:09] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: are you using hsf installer ? Or are you trying to compile the driver by hand ?
[09:10] <Shaezsche> hsf installer
[09:10] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: that installer gives you some other option ?
[09:11] <Shaezsche> i dont know why?
[09:11] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: tell me exactly whats your modem (Ill try to find a suitable module for it)
[09:11] <lsuactiafner> root@infant-finite:~# glxinfo | grep dir
[09:11] <lsuactiafner> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[09:11] <stevekl> Does anyone happen to have any idea how much space dapper would take up if you didn't install Xorg?
[09:11] <lsuactiafner> how do i fix that?
[09:12] <nightcoder> spine: we need some 'error' to work on. Please try run your GUI-cdwriter from a terminal ... and see if it send error messages to console behind it
[09:12] <KevinIN72> !samba
[09:12] <Shaezsche> im on a laptop, its built in to my sound card, ive been told the ID is 82801fb

[09:12] <OwlofDoom> hello everyone! has anyone got any experience building ndiswrapper for a custom kernel on dapper?
[09:12] <spine> nightcoder: k, il try k3b, il BRB.
[09:12] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: lspci returns what ?
[09:13] <wastrel> bah i still need to configure modem, printing, mail server, 3d accel, and i haven't finished restoring my backed up files yet either :p  remind me not to upgrade anymore :p
[09:13] <Shaezsche> Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) IDE Controller (rev 04)
[09:13] <__doc__> DBO: that's rather interesting. after removing the restricted kernel modules it also removed nvidia-glx
[09:13] <philippic> Hello - would anyone care to help me set my clock with NTP?
[09:14] <__doc__> DBO: then I reinstalled the restricted kernel modules, and glxinfo gives me back lots of good locking info
[09:14] <oezguer> i need help :( for Amsn , cos of firewall router  i cant use my cam at Amsn, anyone can help me?  a way without router setting!!!
[09:14] <jjazz_> philippic: sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntulinux.com  should do it.
[09:14] <nightcoder> wastrel: here in almost 5 machines the transition breezy -> dapper was really nice and easy
[09:14] <__doc__> DBO: then I apt-get install nvidia-glx and ctlr+alt+backspace, and all good info's gone
[09:14] <wastrel> nightcoder:  i wanted to repartition so i wiped & installed fresh
[09:14] <__doc__> DBO: back to square one
[09:14] <nightcoder> wastrel: hmmmm
[09:14] <der1> hey guy, does anyone know if its possible to install ubuntu and have windows dual boot with it when you use the 'use largest available space' install option
[09:14] <jjazz_> wastrel: I upgraded to dapper and lost my sound, my dual head config and my wireless card.  I'm still trying to figure it out.
[09:14] <DBO> __doc__, I need that gdm log =)
[09:14] <OwlofDoom> :( has no one here built an ndiswrapper with module-assistant?
[09:15] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I have
[09:15] <maddy> i want to install dapper drake is this want i need ubuntu-6.06-server-amd64
[09:15] <Kyral_FreeBSD> long time ago
[09:15] <philippic> jjazz_: Thanks - I was thinking about running ntpd, but maybe I'll just script ntpdate instead.
[09:15] <nightcoder> derl: your hard disc have 'free space' ?
[09:15] <apokryphos> maddy: do you want to install it for your desktop or for your server?
[09:15] <apokryphos> maddy: and, is it an amd64?
[09:15] <Shaezsche> nightcoder: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) IDE Controller (rev 04)
[09:15] <der1> nightcoder, not yet but i can create some with the rescuedisk
[09:15] <maddy> desktop amd 64
[09:15] <jjazz_> philippic: Use cron and run ntpdate daily.  Unless you need super precise time, the daily drift of a few seconds shouldn't be a problem.
[09:15] <der1> freespace is unpartioned space right
[09:15] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: nice. Wait a minute please
[09:16] <apokryphos> maddy: then that's not the one you want
[09:16] <Codenut> t
[09:16] <apokryphos> maddy: get the one that isn't "server"
[09:16] <maddy> apokryphos  ok :)
[09:16] <tanath> wastrel: just needed quotes ("") around $i
[09:16] <OwlofDoom> Kyral_FreeBSD: hmm, i have a feeling this is dapper-specific (the package has the wrong version number when built) but thanks anyway
[09:16] <wastrel> tanath:  so simple, yet so difficult :]
[09:16] <Kyral_FreeBSD> OwlofDoom: When in doubt, build from source
[09:16] <__doc__> DBO: http://rafb.net/paste/results/MXIA7G80.html
[09:16] <jjazz_> I am trying to get my ipw2200 wireless card working.  I can see it in lspci, but it doesn't show up in iwconfig.  I compiled and modprobed the modules recommended in various howtos, and I'm not sure what my next step would be.  Any advice would be appreciated.  Thanks.
[09:17] <OwlofDoom> Kyral_FreeBSD: yeah, might be best... or i may just go back to the stock kernel.. this'un's been nother but trouble
[09:17] <der1> if I change the size of my windows partition and have a couple gigs without a partition will the ubuntu installer do the rest and make my machine dual bootable?
[09:17] <freezer> hi
[09:17] <der1> or do i have to partition stuff myself for that
[09:17] <wastrel> jjazz_:  i have ipw2200 - worked out of the box w/ dapper
[09:17] <philippic> jjazz_: I have ipw2200 too, works out the box for me too.
[09:17] <jjazz_> wastrel: Hmm... it didn't for me.
[09:17] <DBO> __doc__, your xorg.conf please =)
[09:17] <jjazz_> So why am I so special?
[09:17] <freezer> anyone from the UK here?
[09:17] <mgorbach> does networkmanager support WPA?
[09:18] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: is it your modem device ?
[09:18] <njan> freezer, me, for one.
[09:18] <OwlofDoom> anyhow, thanks everyone
[09:18] <jjazz_> wastrel: philippic:  was that an upgrade from breezy or a fresh dapper install?
[09:18] <OwlofDoom> bye
[09:18] <wastrel> jjazz_:  fresh install for me
[09:18] <philippic> jjazz_: Upgrade from breezy.
[09:18] <Shaezsche> nightcoder: thats all the information i have, i emailed the maker of this laptop about the chipset and they just told me to dl the hsf driver
[09:18] <__doc__> DBO: http://rafb.net/paste/results/xL0sAh64.html
[09:19] <spine> nightcoder i give up, im not using the gparted live cd, im going back to debian with a complete reformat.
[09:19] <Shaezsche> furthermore that program on linuxant detects thats the driver i need
[09:19] <spine> nightcoder, thx though
[09:19] <jjazz_> philippic: I just wish I knew what steps I could take to debug this.
[09:19] <wastrel> jjazz_:  i'm using the stock ubuntu kernel, you rolled your own?
[09:19] <wastrel> hmm i should install the 686 kernel.
[09:19] <der1> still wondering... f when installing ubuntu i select "use largest available space" will it make it dual bootable with my windows?
[09:19] <DBO> __doc__, ok, lets see your xorg.log now... (wow Im confusing even myself with your issue)
[09:19] <jjazz_> wastrel: Nope.  Using the stock kernel.
[09:20] <QPAD|warlock> I typed chmod +x steam to give permission to run the file called steam, but now it answers with: -bash: ./steam: No such file or directory
[09:20] <QPAD|warlock> Anynoe ?
[09:20] <QPAD|warlock> anyone '
[09:20] <philippic> jjazz_: Hmmm. I wonder if you've overwritten something trying to install it manually?
[09:20] <__doc__> DBO: http://rafb.net/paste/results/6TKQoD11.html
[09:21] <maddy_> whats the app to burn CD?
[09:21] <Shaezsche> if i use the sudo command does that mean i am running from root?
[09:21] <jjazz_> philippic: Maybe, but it didn't work at all after I upgraded and rebooted, so whatever I overwrote wasn't correct in the first place.
[09:21] <wastrel> jjazz_:  yeah the stock kernel works for my 2200bg - no fuss no bother :/
[09:21] <jjazz_> wastrel: What does uname -r say for you?
[09:21] <wastrel> 2.6.15-23-386
[09:21] <QPAD|warlock> Anyone got any clues of how to give premission to the file steam so it can run trough ./steam ? (is it chmod +x ./steam or what) ?
[09:21] <DBO> __doc__, does your x server load?
[09:21] <jjazz_> wastrel: I'm using 2.6.12-10-686
[09:21] <apokryphos> QPAD|warlock: yes
[09:21] <njan> QPAD|warlock, yes, that's exactly it.
[09:22] <jjazz_> philippic: What does uname -r say for you?
[09:22] <QPAD|warlock> It is?  but it answers with:
[09:22] <__doc__> DBO: yes it does
[09:22] <QPAD|warlock> root@game-server:/home/cz/swe-randommaps# ./steam
[09:22] <QPAD|warlock> -bash: ./steam: No such file or directory
[09:22] <weedar> Hey, after correcting the time by setting it back two hours I keep getting errors, in console I see "timestamp too far in the future" - Any ideas as to what I should do?
[09:22] <DBO> __doc__, run glxgears in a terminal
[09:22] <maddy_> whats the app to burn CD?
[09:22] <philippic> jjazz_: 2.6.15-23-386
[09:22] <QPAD|warlock> http://pastebin.com/760469

[09:22] <Wyred> kb3
[09:22] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ac97-modem/
[09:22] <QPAD|warlock> but the file STEAM is there?!
[09:22] <macsim> DBO: gnomebaker
[09:22] <gnomefreak> maddy_: gnomebaker, k3b,cdrecord .....
[09:22] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: this is your driver ?
[09:22] <wastrel> 2.6.15 seems to be the current kernel in dapper - at least for i386
[09:22] <CrippsFX> maddy, mkisofs, cdrecord
[09:22] <apokryphos> QPAD|warlock: then you're executing it from the wrong directory
[09:22] <CrippsFX> ;)
[09:22] <QPAD|warlock> Im not, im in the dir..
[09:22] <jjazz_> wastrel philippic: Maybe I should use the same kernel as you folks.
[09:23] <hmpedersen> Hmm..
[09:23] <DBO> macsim, what???
[09:23] <gnomefreak> nautilus will burn cds also
[09:23] <__doc__> DBO: runs, but it sort of jumps
[09:23] <Wyred> brb
[09:23] <hmpedersen> That's weird..
[09:23] <philippic> jjazz_: Probably :)
[09:23] <__doc__> DBO: I suspect that's software renderer
[09:23] <Shaezsche> nightcoder: it might be i dont know, but that file to download is broken
[09:23] <philippic> jjazz_: I asked you a question in private too, about whether the module is loaded.
[09:23] <hmpedersen> Does anyone know if it's normal for xchat (windows) to loose the menu?
[09:23] <macsim> DBO: sorry wrong person
[09:23] <wastrel> i'm installing the 686 kernel now :]   it's also 2.6.15
[09:23] <macsim> DBO: was for maddy
[09:23] <QPAD|warlock> apokryphos, im in the dir /home/cz/swe-randommaps and im trying to execute ./steam, http://pastebin.com/760469 - see the file steam is in there..
[09:23] <der1> has anybody installed a dual boot onto a windows machine using Dapper's "largest available space" install option?
[09:24] <DBO> __doc__, glxgears -printfps
[09:24] <der1> will it work?
[09:24] <bananafly> does anyone here have a HP Pavillion, with the default MBR?
[09:24] <Sum1> Anyone found that when they tried to install Dapper, the system locks at 92% (detecting hardware)? Can only find one comment about it (bottom of http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1069590) but it's just happened to me.
[09:24] <bananafly> i kind of fucked up mine, including the part. table
[09:24] <wastrel> !language
[09:24] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[09:24] <jjazz_> philippic: I didn't get it for some reason.  Bu the module is loaded.  lsmod | grep ipw shows ipw2200, ieee80211, ieee80211_crypt and firmware_class
[09:24] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell bananafly -about language
[09:24] <apokryphos> QPAD|warlock: that's very weird; maybe friends in #bash could be more helpful
[09:24] <bananafly> sorry
[09:25] <__doc__> DBO: 3664 frames in 5.1 seconds = 722.356 FPS
[09:25] <philippic> jjazz_: Unload the module with modprobe -r..
[09:25] <jjazz_> philippic: which one
[09:25] <__doc__> DBO: alright so it seems right now I have gl support
[09:25] <philippic> jjazz_: and load it again. See what dmesg or kern.log says.
[09:25] <DBO> __doc__, seems that way
[09:25] <wastrel> QPAD|warlock:  ./steam is referencing a file that doesn't exist - maybe in the bangpath
[09:25] <wastrel> (my guess)
[09:25] <philippic> jjazz_: I'd try modprobe -r ipw2200
[09:25] <bananafly> anyway does someone have a HP Pavillion, one of those with 250GB HDDs and a recovery partition?
[09:26] <philippic> and then modprobe ipw2200.
[09:26] <Shaezsche> what does it mean to run commands from root?
[09:26] <__doc__> DBO: so now I need to install nvidia-glx again?
[09:26] <jjazz_> philippic: ipw2200-bss.fw request_firmware failed: Reason -2
[09:26] <jjazz_> philippic: Maybe I have the wrong firmware version installed.
[09:26] <Drakonik> Okay, I've got Norton Partition Maigc 8, and i'm making a partition for ubuntu.
[09:26] <msid> my system gets stuck on boot when it saying mounting the root filesystem and it does not do anything for 10'. any ideas how to solve this thing ?
[09:27] <avis> what ports need to be open for samba to work on ubuntu ?
[09:27] <maddy_> when installing dapper drake can i choose to build my kernel during install?
[09:27] <Drakonik> What type of files system shoudl it be?
[09:27] <DBO> __doc__, why??? its working
[09:27] <philippic> jjazz_: That's a good start then...
[09:27] <__doc__> DBO: alright ^^
[09:27] <gnomefreak> what is the gnome default cd player called?
[09:27] <jjazz_> philippic: Yes.  Good usggestion.  Thanks
[09:27] <__doc__> DBO: continuing with other glx instructions now
[09:27] <gnomefreak> watch it be cdplayer :(
[09:27] <avis> ugh :(
[09:27] <jjazz_> avis Netbios ports are 137-139

[09:28] <wastrel> ok i'mna reboot with my fancy new 686 kernel l8r
[09:29] <Sum1> Is there a good faq for problems people have had with installing Dapper?
[09:29] <apokryphos> Sum1: /topic
[09:29] <watson540> hrmm
[09:29] <philippic> jjazz_: Google thinks you have the wrong firmware version..
[09:29] <shwag> how do I setup my bluetooth  mouse?
[09:29] <Sum1> apokryphos: thanks. didn't find my problem there, unfortunately.
[09:29] <gomek> anyone here have any clue how to set a screensaver on the gdm login screen?
[09:30] <Drakonik> Any ideas on what file system my Ubuntu should be?
[09:30] <apokryphos> Sum1: what is it?
[09:30] <Jemt> Greetz. I have just installed Ubuntu Dapper. Am I the only one having graphical errors on my buttons? A lot of dashed stribes are visible on top of the buttons
[09:30] <Drakonik> Does it matter?
[09:30] <Pupeno_> I am trying to compile dsywindows, when I run autogen.sh I get the error "aclocal: configure.ac: 31: macro `AM_PROG_CC_C_O' not found in library", any ideas ?
[09:30] <hmpedersen> oh.. gettin closer now..
[09:30] <apokryphos> Drakonik: ext3 is default
[09:30] <Shaezsche> how do i issue commands from root?
[09:30] <Shaezsche> is that what sudo does?
[09:30] <Drakonik> ALright.
[09:30] <Sum1> apokryphos: system hangs at 92 percent installed "detecting hardware".
[09:30] <Drakonik> That's what I'll go with.
[09:30] <apokryphos> Shaezsche: /topic
[09:30] <hmpedersen> I can almost -see- dapper booting (97% installed) :)
[09:30] <Sum1> apokryphos: Breezy had no problem.
[09:30] <apokryphos> Sum1: hm, haven't seen that no. I recommend trying to install with the alternate cd
[09:30] <Wyred> Shaezsche, yeah thats what sudo is for
[09:31] <Weirdbro> !tell Shaezsche about sudo
[09:31] <jjazz_> philippic: Yes, I'm googling the error now too.  What page are you looking at?
[09:31] <Wyred> anyone know the ftp url for mulitverse?
[09:31] <gomek> bwahahaha, i figured it out.
[09:31] <apokryphos> Wyred: same as http but with ftp://
[09:31] <bananafly> is there any tool that can recreate partition tables, and find the beginning of the lost partition?
[09:31] <Sum1> apokryphos: Okay, will do. Unfortunately, I now can't burn the alternate cd because I have one cd drive and a wiped hard drive! Typical ;)
[09:31] <meuserj> bananafly, gpart
[09:31] <__doc__> DCO: thx, that reinstall of the restricted kernel modules seems to have been it, and in this case installation of the nvidia-glx stuff is really missleading
[09:32] <Wyred> just had to reinstall ubuntu, after trying sarge
[09:32] <apokryphos> Sum1: dang 8). You've tried to install with the desktop CD more than once?
[09:32] <meuserj> bananafly, http://www.stud.uni-hannover.de/user/76201/gpart/
[09:32] <bananafly> meuserj, can it find my lost partition too?
[09:32] <jjazz_> Wyred: ubuntu is a lot closer to etch/sid than sarge.
[09:32] <msid> my system gets stuck on boot when it saying mounting the root filesystem and it does not do anything for 10'. any ideas how to solve this thing ?
[09:32] <meuserj> bananafly, that's what it does
[09:32] <Wyred> yeah, sarge never can find my internet connection
[09:32] <Sum1> apokryphos: Nope, just thought I'd check if it was a common problem first. It's weird that the livecd has no problem detecting hardware, but suddenly does on install. What other hardware is it likely to be looking at?
[09:33] <Wyred> yet ubuntu, or kubuntu does
[09:33] <zuhause01xx> hello does anybody here run limewire inside ubuntu, i am pretty new to ubuntu and dont know how to install it.. :)
[09:33] <jtd> does anyone here have a Wacom tablet, and can they explain to me how they got it working?  Ubuntu seems not to have installed support for it by default
[09:33] <bananafly> meuserj, this ain't the same thing as gparted, right?
[09:33] <jjazz_> Wyred: If you really want sarge, you can bring up the connection manually during install.
[09:33] <apokryphos> Sum1: no idea. I'd try the desktop CD once more; it's certainly not a common issue though
[09:33] <jtd> zuhause01xx: you want Frostwire instead.
[09:33] <intelikey> msid make the root partition about 3g  rather than 200g  in size ?
[09:33] <stevekl> Can someone point me into the direction that I need to install dapper on a machine without a monitor (using a serial cable, i've never done it and am confused as heck)
[09:33] <meuserj> bananafly, right... different programs
[09:33] <Wyred> jjazz_, it never finds it, even after I use my full ip, hostname etc etc
[09:33] <zuhause01xx> ok, thanks ilkl check that out
[09:33] <jjazz_> Wyred: I've been in that situation where I can bring it up myself (by specifying the essid), but the installer for some reason doesn't.
[09:33] <Sum1> apokryphos: I found the same issue at the bottom of http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1069590... but no other references to it, and no solutions there.
[09:34] <jjazz_> Wyred: weird
[09:34] <Sum1> apokryphos: oh well, I'll try again and see what happens. Thanks for the help!
[09:34] <Wyred> my pc uses eth1
[09:34] <jjazz_> Wyred: I guess that's a good reason to use ubuntu, then.
[09:34] <Wyred> as the main connection
[09:34] <nightcoder> Shaezsche: your driver is linuxant ?
[09:34] <msid> intelikey: what kind of answer is this? i cannot even boot on my system and i have data on it. and it is auto partitioned the way the installer did it.
[09:34] <facefaceface> yo yo yo
[09:34] <Wyred> and eth0, is a dormant eth port
[09:34] <facefaceface> I 'have update
[09:34] <intelikey> msid you can not boot ?
[09:34] <hmpedersen> I don't get why I can't read the dapper disc from my bootable dvd drive..
[09:35] <shwag> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto  seems to be out of date.
[09:35] <msid> intelikey: no
[09:35] <facefaceface> but they are all unsigned. I think I am missing a gpg key
[09:35] <hmpedersen> Oh well.. Gonna unplug it and reboot so i can install from the other one..
[09:35] <hmpedersen> ahh.. now laptop is installing grub :)
[09:35] <intelikey> what did you upgrade that cause the inabilty to boot msid ?
[09:35] <Wyred> hmpedersen,  saved it as a data file instead of a bootable media
[09:35] <Wyred> ?
[09:36] <facefaceface> when I click
[09:36] <msid> intelikey: i just did a fresh installation. and it doesn't work
[09:36] <valberg> when upgrading to ubuntu 6.06 LTS I get this:
[09:36] <rackerz> can someone help me setup my webcam at all?
[09:36] <valberg> Could not calculate the upgrade
[09:36] <valberg> A unresolvable problem occured while calculating the upgrade. Please report this as a bug.
[09:36] <facefaceface> sorry, when I click 'update' it says - you are upgrading unverified packavges
[09:36] <bananafly> when I try to run gpart i get an Acces denied error, what's wrong?
[09:36] <hmpedersen> bbl
[09:37] <meuserj> bananafly, you can't run it and scan the drive that you are booted to... you need to make abootdisk
[09:37] <zuhause01xx> cool thanks jtd!! ;)
[09:37] <facefaceface> 'not authenticated'
[09:37] <facefaceface> am I missing a key from some repo somewhere?
[09:37] <meuserj> bananafly, if I recall.. I may be wrong.. it is on the Ubuntu live CD
[09:38] <sanmarcos> what is the difference between server and normal?
[09:38] <intelikey> msid the you don't have data on the root system in the sense of valuable files that need to be saved.    you did a fresh install and it wont boot.   reinstall it.  and use expert mode.
[09:38] <bananafly> how handy!
[09:38] <apokryphos> sanmarcos: server has no desktop things, i.e. X, GNOME, etc
[09:38] <facefaceface> sanmarcos, in what context?
[09:38] <paul_> Can someone point me in the right direction for setting up a linksys wireless router ?
[09:38] <abo> is there a project manager like program in ubuntu?
[09:38] <msid> intelikey: i have data, it worked until i rebooted it for the first time
[09:38] <meuserj> abo, planner
[09:38] <facefaceface> paul_, you can config it manually by going to <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:39] <sanmarcos> apokryphos: not even in the repos?
[09:39] <apokryphos> sanmarcos: what?
[09:39] <jjazz_> paul_: Go to <IP_ADDRESS>.  Username is admin.  pasword is blank.
[09:39] <facefaceface> paul_, or google ... - I booted into windows actualy
[09:39] <abo> meuserj, thanks
[09:39] <intelikey> msid then again i ask what you changed (between the time it booted correctly and the time it failed to boot)  ?
[09:39] <apokryphos> sanmarcos: the server install is just an install made specifically for servers (hosting websites etc). The desktop install is what you'd want, most probably
[09:39] <sanmarcos> apokryphos: on the install cds no gnome, but its on the repos, right?
[09:39] <meuserj> abo, np
[09:39] <paul_> cool thanks foks
[09:39] <sanmarcos> apokryphos: no, else I would not be askijng
[09:39] <facefaceface> can anyone hear me?
[09:39] <sanmarcos> anyways, I got my answers, thanks apokryphos
[09:40] <apokryphos> sanmarcos: the install CDs have gnome, presuming you don't have a server CD
[09:40] <DBO> facefaceface, no, you'll have to speak up
[09:40] <jacopoexchange> does anyone knows where i can find the package "qtutils" in binary?
[09:40] <ajeeb> Is there a way to share a directory from the filesystem via USB?
[09:40] <intelikey> msid if a system boots one time and the next time it doesn't,  something changed.
[09:40] <avis> i tried to setup samba to share my home directory through smb4k because i thought it would be easy but i could not do it
[09:40] <msid> intelikey: yes, data got on the hard drive. isn't that unusual now ?
[09:40] <facefaceface> OK, IS THIS ... loud enough -- ahem... 'Apply the following changes'... Warning... You are about to install softwar that can be authenticated.... what shoudl I do?
[09:40] <avis> i opened 137-139 on this machine
[09:41] <ajeeb> that is can my ubuntu laptop server as a USB hardrive/mem stroage for another device?
[09:41] <intelikey> msid what data ?
[09:41] <apokryphos> facefaceface: no shouting please; we hear you. If someone is able/willing to help, they will :)
[09:41] <avis> i need an easy way to share my home dir
[09:41] <msid> intelikey: MY data
[09:41] <facefaceface> apokryphos, only joking
[09:41] <facefaceface> just my little joke
[09:41] <intelikey> msid a file called vmlinux perhaps ?
[09:41] <facefaceface> !tell facefaceface about authenticated
[09:42] <msid> intelikey: word documents, mp3, videos
[09:42] <DBO> apokryphos, facefaceface was only responding to a joke I made... yell at me instead =P
[09:42] <facefaceface> !tell facefaceface about packages
[09:42] <DBO> !msgthebot
[09:42] <ubotu> Please message the bot (me) in private, more info about the bot: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[09:42] <jjazz_> !tell facefaceface about msgthebot
[09:42] <blaster8> Is anyone using an Atheros card with the original madwifi drivers on dapper successfully?
[09:42] <blaster8> reference: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15/+bug/37773
[09:42] <facefaceface> OK, I get it
[09:42] <avis> !tell avis about samba
[09:42] <intelikey> msid none of the will affect the system.    what else did you change ?
[09:42] <zipper_> Grr, no matter what i try, i cannot get my monitor to be the primary screen instead of my tv. Any hints? My xorg.conf :  http://pastebin.dk/index.php?show=1742
[09:43] <stbrenner> new red hot chili peppers album = awesome
[09:43] <msid> intelikey: i am not in the mood to play with words man. i say it for the last time, NOTHING
[09:43] <eNons3nse> to get my ATi card working do I just need install the "fglrx" package?
[09:43] <intelikey> then it will still boot.
[09:43] <msid> intelikey: it doesn't
[09:43] <ghozt> !nvu
[09:43] <M-Rev> stbrenner: if its more Californication than One Hot Minute/Blood Sugar, its probably not
[09:43] <ubotu> hmm... nvu is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingNvu http://www.nvu.com/ Linux/Mac/Windows Web authoring.
[09:43] <valberg> ahh.. the reason was some unwanted repos
[09:44] <stbrenner> M-Rev, it's funky :)
[09:44] <TimothyP> Hello, in latest ubuntu/gnome when I hold my mouse over an MP3 file it starts playing, but the players in ubuntu can't play it, what do Ineed to do
[09:44] <stbrenner> get w32codecs
[09:44] <TimothyP> and why is it gnome can preview these files
[09:44] <TimothyP> apt-get can't find it
[09:44] <M-Rev> stbrenner: I've read its very soft, sweet and laidback, like Californication
[09:44] <apokryphos> TimothyP: see teh FAQ in /topic
[09:44] <valberg> dam'it! that wasn't the reason... i still get: Could not calculate the upgrade
[09:44] <valberg>  A unresolvable problem occured while calculating the upgrade. Please report this as a bug.
[09:44] <stbrenner> oooh
[09:44] <TimothyP> k
[09:44] <stbrenner> you want that preview thing...
[09:45] <TimothyP> no the preview works
[09:45] <TimothyP> that just it
[09:45] <stbrenner> M-Rev, do you believe everything you read?
[09:45] <TimothyP> if that works that means there's support for MP3 somewhere :p
[09:45] <TimothyP> but it only works in preview not in applications :)
[09:45] <intelikey> msid i'm in no mood to play either.  you havent described any problem you just said "it will not boot... after i rebooted"   thus it did boot.  but now doesn't  unless you can give us some error message to work with, or remember what you changed that might have caused it.  i can not help.
[09:45] <jjazz_> !tell TimothyP about w32codecs
[09:45] <apokryphos> TimothyP: interesting, it shouldn't; mp3 is a patented format.
[09:45] <jjazz_> Maybe that will help?
[09:45] <TimothyP> I know that's just it :)
[09:45] <eNons3nse> to get my ATi card working do I just need install the "fglrx" package?
[09:45] <Anusien2> If I'm starting over from scratch to set up a dual boot, I just need to clear out the hard disk, set up a partition for windows through the windows installer, put Windows there, then put up a Linux partition and put ubuntu there?
[09:45] <TimothyP> why does it ?
[09:45] <shwag> I need someone to explain to me how to use the Respository Selection dialog in Synaptic. All the HowTos are out of date. wtf?
[09:45] <apokryphos> and guys, the mp3 codecs in ubuntu are NOT w32 codecs
[09:46] <lordgreg> can someone please tell me how to install the "add/remove applications". i think i accidentely removed it. now it's gone. it's not even in Alacarte
[09:46] <TabooTreez> heyyyy
[09:46] <TabooTreez> newbs
[09:46] <ghozt> would apt-get grab the newest nvu?
[09:46] <jacopoexchange> eNons3nse, i tried to install fglrx, but doesn't work too well in dapper
[09:46] <TabooTreez> anyone know a good windows irc client
[09:46] <jacopoexchange> and i switched back to linux ati
[09:46] <TabooTreez> right now im running bitchx threw cygwig
[09:46] <dfccbn> hi has anyone tried using ubuntu + XGL inside of qemu?
[09:46] <TimothyP> I figured win32 codecs were WMA and the likes
[09:46] <apokryphos> TabooTreez: xchat ;-)
[09:46] <palo> Is there any way to push updates to ubuntu clients from an ubuntu server?
[09:46] <TabooTreez> xchat cost money on windows
[09:46] <ghozt> TabooTreez:  mIRC on windows
[09:46] <jjazz_> TimothyP: I believe it's a bunch of proprietary codecs.  Some win specific, but not all.
[09:47] <TabooTreez> mirc blows
[09:47] <TabooTreez> i want something like konversation
[09:47] <TabooTreez> that kicks ass
[09:47] <TimothyP> ok but still I haven't got it and yet gnome plays them :p
[09:47] <ghozt> TabooTreez: try hyrdairc then
[09:47] <apokryphos> TabooTreez: it doesn't cost anything on windoze
[09:47] <intelikey> msid there are only two things that cause a system to "stop" booting.  software change  or hardware failure.
[09:47] <apokryphos> TabooTreez: heh, oh wait, I see you have to register. That is funny.
[09:47] <linkd> xchat on windows is free. just the offical precompiled binaries arent. silverex precompiled binaries are free. google "silverex" for more info
[09:47] <TabooTreez> no funny
[09:47] <apokryphos> dual license, like Qt
[09:47] <TabooTreez> lame
[09:47] <eNons3nse> jacopoexchange:  so if i install linux-ati, turn of my computer and swap out the card it will work when i turn it back on?  or are there other things to do?  and will linux-ati work with compiz & such?
[09:47] <Anusien2> To set up a dual boot Windows/Ubuntu, If I'm starting over from scratch to set up a dual boot, I just need to clear out the hard disk, set up a partition for windows through the windows installer, put Windows there, then put up a Linux partition and put ubuntu there?
[09:48] <jjazz_> TimothyP: I don't know what that's about.  I suspect demonic possession.
[09:48] <TimothyP> hehe
[09:48] <Sadek-> Hey I want to move a file to /usr/share/firefox/icons but it says I don't have access, how do I give myself access to do this?
[09:48] <nightcoder> Anusien2: yes
[09:48] <sk4jvoker> how can i chage the permission to the file
[09:48] <Anusien2> nightcoder2: of course it'll never be that easy, but here's to trying
[09:48] <valberg> Sadek-, run sudo mv from-file to-file
[09:48] <apokryphos> Anusien2: see the FAQ in /topic
[09:48] <intelikey> Sadek- sudo
[09:48] <jjazz_> sk4jvoker: man chmod
[09:49] <sk4jvoker> thanks
[09:49] <ajeeb> Does my question make sense a all: can i export/share files via USB to a device like an mp3 player?
[09:49] <jacopoexchange> Nons3nse: i'm just a newbie, all i have done was just apt-get remove xorg-fglrx-driver and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with ati instead of fglrx
[09:49] <jjazz_> ajeeb: depends on the player
[09:49] <intelikey> sk4jvoker which file may i ask ?
[09:49] <jjazz_> ajeeb: some players can be mounted like usb drives.  Other ones require you use an application
[09:49] <jacopoexchange> eNons3nse: i'm just a newbie, all i have done was just apt-get remove xorg-fglrx-driver and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with ati instead of fglrx
[09:50] <ghozt> ooo nvu is nice.
[09:50] <uscg_corey> anyone using dapper and totem-xine plugin for ff1.5 experiencing really bright streaming video pictures?
[09:50] <Anusien2> On the upside, I'm getting good at this "Installing OSes" thing
[09:50] <facefaceface> what is the equivelent term for a reop with atp vs. yum?
[09:50] <QPAD|warlock> how can i support 32 binaries to run under 64 -bit kernel ?
[09:50] <Anusien2> QPAD|warlock: you need to set up a 32bit chroot
[09:50] <ajeeb> jjazz: no, I m asking if my laptop could be the "usb driver" that the device would mount... can that be done?
[09:50] <facefaceface> get three coffins ready... no make that 4
[09:50] <QPAD|warlock> Anusien2, how do i do that ?
[09:51] <Anusien2> QPAD|warlock: um, let me look.  I have the script saved somewhere, but I'll find the forum post
[09:51] <tomas__> can anyone tell me if there is any tools (gui) in gnome for handling tv-out & multiple monitors?
[09:51] <meuserj> ajeeb, no.. that can't be done... you are trying to use a USB perifial as the host... doesn't work
[09:51] <facefaceface> repo to yum is what to apt?
[09:52] <sk4jvoker> ok how can i see the permisions of file
[09:52] <intelikey> facefaceface see /etc/apt/sources.list    or  man apt-get
[09:52] <facefaceface> ah... man
[09:52] <intelikey> sk4jvoker ls -l
[09:52] <[NP] Tangent> wooooooooo
[09:52] <ajeeb> meuserj: are there any projects to make that happen that i could try?
[09:52] <[NP] Tangent> got my upgrade to Dapper done
[09:52] <[NP] Tangent> now I just need to find a make sure my DNS always works
[09:52] <stbrenner> hmm
[09:53] <tritium> [NP] Tangent: how is it not working?
[09:53] <meuserj> ajeeb, unless the mp3 player is capable of being in host mode, then this is impossible.. I don't know of any that can do this.
[09:53] <eNons3nse> jacopoexchange: Thanks for the help.
[09:53] <intelikey> sk4jvoker may i ask what error you are getting   (assuming errors)
[09:53] <stbrenner> is there anyway to view the .wine directory in the file browser?
[09:53] <stbrenner> oof
[09:53] <stbrenner> just saw it
[09:53] <intelikey> stbrenner view hidden
[09:53] <ajeeb> meuserj: thanks
[09:53] <sk4jvoker> i get a error when i try to login
[09:53] <meuserj> ajeeb, np
[09:54] <intelikey> sk4jvoker what error ?
[09:54] <[NP] Tangent> tritium: it's working now, but it likes to default to not working
[09:54] <[NP] Tangent> just editing the GNOME network manager settings real quickly solves it
[09:54] <sk4jvoker> the file .dmrc needs to have 644 permision
[09:54] <[NP] Tangent> but it keeps setting my router as a DNS lookup server
[09:54] <tritium> [NP] Tangent: what ISP do you have?
[09:54] <[NP] Tangent> which doesn't work
[09:55] <tritium> [NP] Tangent: Qwest DSL with Actiontec modem?
[09:55] <sk4jvoker> and i can not login to my profile
[09:55] <[NP] Tangent> yes
[09:55] <tritium> I knew it...
[09:55] <TimothyP> damn the new ubuntu is FAST
[09:55] <[NP] Tangent> I love the new Ubuntu
[09:55] <siezer> uh.... where can I find the 'normal' (non dvd sized)  installation iso for dapper?
[09:55] <[NP] Tangent> it's pretty fancy
[09:55] <intelikey> sk4jvoker then chmod 644 /home/sk4jvoker/.dmrc       or rm it.
[09:55] <TimothyP> bootime is superb and the ui is so responsive
[09:55] <boogaloo> there's a new ubuntu ?
[09:55] <tritium> [NP] Tangent: in your /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf, prepend the DNS servers (the proper ones)
[09:55] <meuserj> sk4jvoker, chmod 644 .dmrc
[09:55] <[NP] Tangent> ah
[09:55] <[NP] Tangent> thanks
[09:56] <sk4jvoker> ok will try thanks
[09:56] <gnomefreak> boogaloo: dapper
[09:56] <TimothyP> now I need to find a way to convert 1TB of data without losing it to ReiserFS or Ext3
[09:56] <boogaloo> ok*
[09:56] <Kyral_FreeBSD> ..from?
[09:56] <Kyral_FreeBSD> TimothyP: from?
[09:56] <TimothyP> NTFS
[09:56] <QPAD|warlock> Anyone know where to get the old ubuntu version then dapper drake which is on the ubuntu.com download page; I need a version for my 2 intel xeon proccesors on 64-bit.
[09:56] <Kyral_FreeBSD> ..hehe thats gonna be FUN
[09:56] <chavo> siezer, it's the alternative CD
[09:56] <DBO> TimothyP, lots and lots of DVD's
[09:56] <Alacrit> gparted
[09:56] <Kyral_FreeBSD> TimothyP: a full TB you say? :P
[09:56] <tritium> [NP] Tangent: like this:  prepend domain-name-servers <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>;
[09:56] <TimothyP> got 1 terrabyte of NTFS data, near enough 2 terrabyte of space
[09:57] <TimothyP> but 500GB of that is on external drive
[09:57] <Ariel_> hello everyone
[09:57] <jpoje> TimothyP: that's a lot of pr0n ;o
[09:57] <TimothyP> I wish :)
[09:57] <dfccbn> anyone used dapper with qemu succesfully?
[09:57] <tritium> [NP] Tangent: your nameservers may be different.
[09:57] <Kyral_FreeBSD> TimothyP: oh in that case...just shrinkout the NTFS down to as far as you can
[09:57] <boogaloo> the new ubuntu needs a most powerfull computer ?
[09:57] <fonto> join #symfony
[09:57] <Kyral_FreeBSD> boogaloo: nope
[09:57] <DBO> dfccbn, you mean dapper as hoster or hostie?
[09:57] <boogaloo> yeah
[09:57] <jpoje> boogaloo: I'm running it on a 500mhz lappy
[09:57] <BHSPitMonkey> hey all
[09:57] <TimothyP> I've to deal with 7 hard drives, there's not much spacing out :p
[09:57] <Kyral_FreeBSD> boogaloo: Same requirements
[09:57] <boogaloo> i'm still with the breezy
[09:57] <dfccbn> DBO, hostie
[09:57] <gnomefreak> boogaloo: no im running dapper on a 450mhz 512 ram P2
[09:57] <boogaloo> ok
[09:57] <boogaloo> nice
[09:57] <Kyral_FreeBSD> boogaloo: you can upgrade freely
[09:57] <jpoje> boogaloo: Dapper is noticably faster
[09:57] <DBO> dfccbn, donno, dont see why not
[09:58] <TimothyP> but I'm willing to put some time in it, so might just have to bring a few external drives of 500GB from work
[09:58] <TimothyP> but can I format an external drive as ReiserFS?
[09:58] <[NP] Tangent> hey tritium
[09:58] <TimothyP> don't care about windows compatibility
[09:58] <[NP] Tangent> can I put in more than one?
[09:58] <jpoje> gnomefreak: I'm going to steal some of your RAM ;(
[09:58] <BHSPitMonkey> is the Alternate CD good for just regular text installations? I find the installer in the livecd to be prone to hanging
[09:58] <dfccbn> DBO, is xgl already in there, and do you think it would work?
[09:58] <Kyral_FreeBSD> boogaloo: Doncha llove  Linux and not have to buy a new Computer to use the new upgrades?
[09:58] <meuserj> TimothyP,
[09:58] <meuserj> TimothyP, yes
[09:58] <Kyral_FreeBSD> TimothyP: I would say Reiser blows
[09:58] <boogaloo> huhu
[09:58] <Kyral_FreeBSD> TimothyP: Go with JFS or ext3
[09:58] <TimothyP> blows as in good or bad and why
[09:58] <gnomefreak> jpoje: ;)
[09:58] <DBO> dfccbn, xgl is not installed by default, nor will it work in a VM
[09:58] <tritium> [NP] Tangent: see my example above.  I added 2
[09:58] <gnomefreak> i only have 256 in other pc on dapper
[09:58] <Kyral_FreeBSD> TimothyP: For one it takes a LONG time to mount the FS
[09:59] <msikma> Hmm. I've been trying to update an old 400 MHz laptop to Dapper for a few times now (from Breezy). The automated installer constantly fails.
[09:59] <Anusien2> QPAD|warlock: Somewhere someone wrote a script that does this, which I can't find, but try this: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575
[09:59] <meuserj> TimothyP, I disagree... ReiserFS is the best one out there
[09:59] <dfccbn> DBO, ah ok, thanks
[09:59] <[NP] Tangent> oh
[09:59] <Kyral_FreeBSD> and 2) I just had a very bad experiance with it and my data
[09:59] <mrw> where is the /dev/null on ubuntu?  Why don't I see it in /dev/?  is it somewhere else?
[09:59] <msikma> It says that it can't get an exclusive lock on a certain directory in /var.
[09:59] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Wee FS Wars :D
[09:59] <intelikey> TimothyP yes external drive or internal drive  makes no differance.  mkfs.rieserfs /dev/<devicee.node>
[09:59] <[NP] Tangent> sorry tritium, it split it onto two lines above
[09:59] <meuserj> heh
[09:59] <tritium> meuserj: yeah, best at corrupting my FS, twice!  ;)
[09:59] <jpoje> gnomefreak: my desktop has a gig - I'm just too cheap/lazy to try and put in another stick of ram into this laptop
[09:59] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Seriously, give JFS a shot
[09:59] <mrw> msikma: more than likely the command you are using needs sudo power.  sudo command
[09:59] <BlueNinja> If I may intrude... Since my upgrade to Dapper, I can't lock screen. If someone has an answer, please send it in a query.
[09:59] <QPAD|warlock> Any ideas of which one i should use for intel xeons x2 running on  64bits? is it: 64-bit PC (AMD64) install CD ? I want breezy badger.
[09:59] <gnomefreak> jpoje: i know that feeling (i hate laptops)
[09:59] <DBO> ReiserFS is like a rocket, it goes really fast for a short while, then it explodes
[10:00] <Kyral_FreeBSD> bingo
[10:00] <tritium> indeed
[10:00] <schloob> does anyone know if it's possible to get a system tray/notification area in the ion3 window manager?
[10:00] <Kyral_FreeBSD> when in doubt, use ext3 :D
[10:00] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Tried and true
[10:00] <jpoje> BlueNinja: ctrl-alt-l
[10:00] <meuserj> TimothyP, if you have space in several different drives that you want to use, you should also check out using LVM.. makes all you drives look like one giant drive
[10:00] <BlueNinja> jpoje: I'll try it
[10:00] <sk4jvoker> still no go i get the following message when i try to login to gnome
[10:00] <msikma> mrw: I'm not using a command
[10:00] <luca__> ciao
[10:00] <Anusien2> QPAD|warlock: here it is.  this worked 100% for me: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=157412&highlight=chroot+32bit+script
[10:00] <mrw> msikma: nm then, I came in halfway on your conversation :)
[10:00] <OneSeventeen> How do I disable the sound that plays at the logon screen?
[10:00] <msikma> mrw: I'm using the automated installer. The one you get when you click on "upgrade" from the updater.
[10:00] <tritium> OneSeventeen: yes
[10:00] <BlueNinja> jpoje: nothing happens
[10:01] <TimothyP> one more thing I do have with ubuntu is we have a server with hardware raid, and I configured a raid array there but ubuntu kept seeing it as seperate drives so we had to go for software raid instead :p
[10:01] <DBO> TimothyP, you have fakeRAID
[10:01] <tritium> OneSeventeen: System->Preferences->Sounds, and change the sounds for Log out to "No sound"
[10:01] <DBO> TimothyP, its not TRUE hardware raid, its actually software raid that is managed with a system driver
[10:02] <dos000> when generating openssl certificate authorities it does not look like you can define the startdate !
[10:02] <li1> how do i set tv-out? i've got an svideo cable connected to the tv
[10:02] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Yanno, one of these days I'm gonna write something that replaces Synaptic
[10:02] <Kyral_FreeBSD> with PERL!! :P
[10:02] <TimothyP> why does reiserFS explode?
[10:02] <tritium> li1: nvidia?
[10:02] <Anusien2> I'm trying to set up Windows XP as a dual boot with Ubuntu.  The Windows install doesn't seem to want to let me partition my hard disk into two pieces.  Would it be better to throw up a LiveCD and split it now or take over the whole thing and scale it back later?
[10:02] <TimothyP> oh :)
[10:02] <OneSeventeen> tritium: I have "Play system sounds" unchecked, so there are no sounds at all in my session, I'm wondering about before my session starts, at the logon screen
[10:02] <TimothyP> omg
[10:02] <TimothyP> oh well :)
[10:02] <Kyral_FreeBSD> TimothyP: seriously, in doubt just use ext3
[10:02] <li1> tritium: laptop, it's an ati x1400 card which is already working with fglrx
[10:02] <Kyral_FreeBSD> it works
[10:02] <jpoje> Anusien2: format your drive, install XP, then install ubuntu
[10:02] <Kyral_FreeBSD> people know it works
[10:02] <Kyral_FreeBSD> its good :D
[10:02] <tritium> li1: ah, okay
[10:02] <Anusien2> jpoje: so scale the partition down later?
[10:03] <li1> tritium: i still need help :)
[10:03] <jpoje> Anusien2: what partition? an existing one?
[10:03] <TimothyP> most of our servers run ubuntu-server, most of them are HP Proliants 380 machines :)
[10:03] <tritium> li1: sorry, I have the answer for nvidia, not ati
[10:03] <KaiSVK> hi all
[10:03] <TimothyP> some with more than 6 network interfaces and it still doesn't lock up pr slow down, I'd love to see windows try that :p we couldn't even get it stable with 3 cards in SBS :p
[10:03] <BHSPitMonkey_> if the computer is amd64, should I get the amd64 version of ubuntu? or is it too unstable?
[10:03] <KaiSVK> someone needs help with ATI ? :)
[10:03] <marlun> When Installing -dev packages like python2.4-dev, where is (what is the path to) the source?
[10:03] <li1> tritium: i see
[10:04] <rhyddin> hey all
[10:04] <Kyral_FreeBSD> TimothyP: Ext3 Full Journalling with Dir_Index for the win (What I run on my server :P)
[10:04] <Anusien2> jpoje: I cleared out all my partitions and I have 80gigs.  I just wiped it out.  I want to take like 50 gigs for XP and 30gigs for Linux.  Should I boot up in Ubuntu LiveCD and run parted now, or have Windows take over the entire 80 and then repartition?
[10:04] <TimothyP> I've to start teaching end users how to work with ubuntu soon :)
[10:04] <rhyddin> hey quick q: how do i get to a plain old command line?
[10:04] <DBO> MMMMMMONSTER KILL
[10:04] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Holy heck!
[10:04] <TimothyP> omg mager netsplit
[10:04] <BHSPitMonkey_> good little split there
[10:04] <rhyddin> crapola
[10:04] <TimothyP> magor netsplit I mean
[10:05] <BHSPitMonkey_> major you mean.
[10:05] <KaiSVK> :D
[10:05] <DBO> rhyddin, CTRL + Alt + F1
[10:05] <KaiSVK> what is this ?
[10:06] <DBO> KaiSVK, its called servers gone loco
[10:06] <Kyral_FreeBSD> ITS THE END OF THE WORLD!!
[10:06] <mrw> msikma: It could be that some other program was just trying to do updating simultaneously.  I've also seen that type of error message if I run apt and then run like one of the updater programs too quickly before programs have closed or something.  I don't know the full error or situation, but if it isn't updating at all I would just close the program down and then restart that program and see if it gets a lock then
[10:06] <boogaloo> i'm trying to upgrade
[10:06] <Anusien2> rhyddin: Accessories->Terminal?
[10:06] <meuserj> looks like one of the freenode servers went down...
[10:06] <jpoje> Anusien2: better to partition up before hand, nondestructive partitioning can be iffy - make the first partition XP, then ubuntu/swap - then install XP, then Ubuntu
[10:06] <stevekl> Cripes, i'm getting corrupt package warnings while installing dapper!
[10:06] <SL|warlock> lol

[10:06] <Ariel_> is there any quick and easy way to install something like vnc on ubuntu 6.06?
[10:06] <BHSPitMonkey_> hey, can anyone tell me if the amd64 version is stable, or should be avoided?
[10:06] <Anusien2> jpoje: Yeah, trying to repartition NTFS in the first place gave me the problems.  I'll leave 50gigs in one partition and 30 in the other and let the respective OSes do what they need with the free space
[10:06] <jpoje> Anusien2: just make sure XP is in the first slot or else it gets bitchy
[10:06] <SL|warlock> BHSPitMonkey_, its shit, messed up my system :(
[10:06] <paradizelos1> Ariel_: you need server or client?
[10:06] <Anusien2> BHSPitMonkey: the amd64 version has its own quirks, but it seems to be stable
[10:06] <rhyddin> nah - not a terminal .. i mean how do i actually quit X altogether?
[10:06] <TimothyP> Ariel_ xtightvnc
[10:06] <SL|warlock> Anusien2, the link you linked to me. What is it ?
[10:06] <Ariel_> paradizelos1, server
[10:06] <TimothyP> apt-cache search xtightvnc :)
[10:06] <intelikey> sk4jvoker the dmrc (by default) tells the display manager to load gnome  or some other wm.    what are you trying to set in .dmrc ?
[10:06] <redrum> BHSPitMonkey_,  do you have an nvidia card?
[10:06] <vbgunz> everybody here is ugly
[10:06] <jpoje> vbgunz: so is your mom
[10:06] <KaiSVK> vbgunz, why ? :)
[10:06] <TimothyP> vbgunz compared to my girlfriend , yeah :)
[10:06] <vbgunz> jpoje: haha
[10:06] <paradizelos1> apt-get install vncserver
[10:06] <KaiSVK> :D
[10:06] <jpoje> vbgunz: but the paper bag fixed that ;d
[10:06] <mitcheloc> Ariel_: you use ubuntu?
[10:06] <BlueNinja> jpoje: I've also tried rebooting, and I get some message at startup-I can't remember exactly what it is, but something about gnome mixer
[10:06] <sk4jvoker> i am not trying , i am trying to get in
[10:06] <valberg> Could not calculate the upgrade <- i get this error when trying to upgrade... any ideas to why ?
[10:06] <vbgunz> screen moving so fast, aint think anyone would catch it :P
[10:06] <BHSPitMonkey> redrum: the system I'm talking about doesn't, it just has onboard
[10:06] <Ariel_> mitcheloc, yes for some desktops
[10:06] <ciruzzo> hi
[10:06] <sk4jvoker> but i get the message that the file is being ignored

[10:06] <BlueNinj1> ah
[10:07] <ciruzzo> where cn I download screensavers for gnome?
[10:07] <ciruzzo> *can
[10:07] <mitcheloc> Ariel_: cool ;), just installed it yesterday
[10:07] <intelikey> sk4jvoker well did you try just rm'ing the .dmrc ?
[10:07] <jpoje> BlueNinj1: did ctrl-alt-l work?
[10:07] <BlueNinj1> jpoje: nope
[10:07] <vbgunz> anyone know why I cannot join ubuntu+1?
[10:07] <BHSPitMonkey> redrum: I've just always gotten the opinion that 64bit OS's aren't stable enough yet, and to use x86 versions, but the guy has an amd64
[10:07] <shwag> programs for gnome, programs for kde, programs for gnome, programs for kde.  How about just programs for Ubuntu.
[10:07] <sk4jvoker> yes i rm and i still cant login
[10:07] <Vaske_Car> !tell Vaske_Car about SSH
[10:07] <jpoje> BlueNinj1: then yeah, your lock screen is broken (that seems to be a default keycombo for lock screen) - retrieve that error message from your logs and google it
[10:07] <KaiSVK> have anyone read the DaVinciCode ? :)
[10:07] <vbgunz> !ubuntu+1
[10:07] <ubotu> vbgunz: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:08] <uscg_corey> anyone using dapper and totem-xine plugin for ff1.5 experiencing really bright streaming video pictures?
[10:08] <redrum> BHSPitMonkey, 64bit is stable but it requires a lot more messing about to set things up - Wine etc, arent so.. intuitive to install
[10:08] <BlueNinj1> jpoje: great.
[10:08] <BHSPitMonkey> ah...
[10:08] <BHSPitMonkey> thanks
[10:08] <BlueNinj1> Would it be in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages?
[10:08] <KaiSVK> :D
[10:08] <intelikey> sk4jvoker hehhe oh   i think i know what the problem is .     do this  sudo rm /home/*/.*auth*
[10:08] <valberg> Could not calculate the upgrade <- i get this error when trying to upgrade... any ideas to why ?
[10:08] <KaiSVK> who is lilo ? :)
[10:08] <BHSPitMonkey> KaiSVK: lilo's the boss.
[10:08] <jpoje> BlueNinj1: no idea, I am a noob when it comes to the real work ;)
[10:08] <BHSPitMonkey> :)
[10:08] <TimothyP> stiches friend :p
[10:08] <sk4jvoker> what is that for
[10:08] <BHSPitMonkey> grub's enemy
[10:08] <BlueNinj1> heh
[10:08] <KaiSVK> BHSPitMonkey, so I am ... ;)
[10:09] <intelikey> sk4jvoker to let you login.
[10:09] <KaiSVK> TimothyP, aaah ... never seen that cartoon :)
[10:09] <redrum> BHSPitMonkey,  also there is no 64 bit flash support... you require to set up 32 bit chroot applications or download firefox32 and link it to 32bit libraries
[10:09] <meuserj> valberg, try using synaptic instead
[10:09] <intelikey> sk4jvoker you ran nautilus with sudo didn't you ?
[10:09] <sk4jvoker> no
[10:09] <gnomefreak> redrum: they can use gplflash
[10:09] <redrum> that too
[10:09] <BHSPitMonkey> redrum: I'm trying to make it easy for the guy, he's a linux virgin... so I'll go with the x86 on him for now :)
[10:09] <sk4jvoker> i ran cedega with sudo
[10:10] <intelikey> sk4jvoker some other gk app perhaps.  but at anyrate try that command.

[10:12] <Burgwork> TimothyP, it uses DAAP sharing, same as iTunes
[10:12] <facefaceface> am I missing a GPG key
[10:12] <ablyss> rhyddin: that will not stop X, you need to tell gdm to stop
[10:12] <TimothyP> hmm perhaps I haven't got the required libs then and it doesn't throw an error (the help file doesn't mention anything about it)
[10:12] <Anusien2> rhyddin: "sudo apt-get install bum" which gives you a graphical utility to shut down gdm and keep it from restarting automatically.  Then in CL, to bring it back up, "/etc/init.d/gdm start"
[10:12] <intelikey> too much server side trubble today.   i'll be back when lilo and the rest get done.

[10:13] <gnomefreak> oh well

[10:15] <valberg> meuserj, you mean that i should update all packages ?
[10:15] <BlueNinja> blargh. What do you suggest?
[10:15] <BHSPitMonkey> Chris_H: #lfd ?
[10:15] <gnomefreak> Chris_H: for what?
[10:15] <jpoje> BlueNinja: does the command xscreensaver work?
[10:15] <Chris_H> for Linux
[10:15] !lilo:*! Apparently level3 is also having 'typing issues' today, so I'm not alone. :)
[10:15] <Anusien2> rhyddin: Stopping 'gdm' through bum (boot-up manager) will stop gdm from starting automatically when you start linux, so you may want to re-enable that again through bum
[10:15] <gnomefreak> Chris_H: for ubuntu?
[10:15] <neoxan> mh
[10:15] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[10:15] <BlueNinja> jpoje: yeah
[10:15] <neoxan> whats the standard port for realvnc?
[10:15] <gnomefreak> jpoje: wasnt xscreensaver pulled out of dapper?
[10:15] <linuxboyfriend> what is a usenet?
[10:15] <zukalk> has anyone had problems with Ndiswrapper in Dapper? i can't get it to work
[10:16] <SystemBomber> zukalk, i need to get my Broadcom 4303 to work :P

[10:16] <Chris_H> basically, im experimenting with my PC upstairs with Kubuntu running linux, and i want to try and set up a network so that i can transfer files from this Windows XP pc upstairs to the Linux machine and if possible, connect Linux up to the internet

[10:16] <gnomefreak> linuxboyfriend: irc server?
[10:16] <gnomefreak> jpoje: do your updates ;)
[10:16] <jpoje> BlueNinja: try xscreensaver;xscreensaver-command -lock
[10:16] <jpoje> gnomefreak: I did!
[10:16] <Chris_H> #kubuntu said im looking in the wrong place, but couldnt help with any alternatives
[10:16] <sk4jvoker> any other users can login just one cant
[10:16] <gnomefreak> jpoje: iirc they pulled it cause too many issues with it sometime in flight 4-rc
[10:16] <zukalk> SystemBomber: mine's a Linksys WMP54G. won't work. it did fine in Hoary and Breezy
[10:16] <linuxboyfriend> gnomefreak, hi
[10:17] <jpoje> gnomefreak: or did I need to upgrade after upgrade+dist-upgrade?
[10:17] <Anusien2> zukalk: what wireless card?
[10:17] <klaidas> hello. I have recently intsalled xubuntu-desktop (using aptitude). Now, when shutting down ubuntu, a Xubuntu logo is displayed instead of a Ubuntu one. How could I change that?
[10:17] <linuxboyfriend> gnomefreak, irc server? sorry
[10:17] <gnomefreak> jpoje: you might have to
[10:17] <SystemBomber> zukalk, lol ive never gotten mine to work yet, still experimenting with linux..:P
[10:17] <gnomefreak> linuxboyfriend: theres an irc server with a name simular to that if not that
[10:17] <valberg> what is the repo for 6.06
[10:17] <zukalk> Anusien2: you have a WMP54G too?
[10:17] <Anusien2> zukalk: for routers?  I have a WRT54G, but my wireless card is a bcm43xx
[10:18] <rhyddin> Hey this BUM thing is cool. I was trying to figure out how to turn off Bluetooth services since my laptop doesnt use them anyway. This makes it easier than 'bummin' around in the scripts (ok, lame jok)
[10:18] <jpoje> gnomefreak: but I like my xscreensaver ;(
[10:18] <SystemBomber> Anusien2, is it a BCM4303?
[10:18] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell valberg -about sources
[10:18] <spikeb> very rhyddin
[10:18] <Anusien2> SystemBomber: I don't know exactly
[10:18] <rhyddin> lol
[10:18] <SystemBomber> damn
[10:18] <BlueNinja> jpoje: it doesn't do anything different than xscreensaver
[10:18] <bmk789> when trying to make a call in skype, i get a "problem with sound device" how do i fix this?
[10:18] <SystemBomber> should say in lspci
[10:18] <MehAdult> Anusien2: I have the EXACT same thing.
[10:18] <zukalk> Anusien2 and SystemBomber: lspci detects mine as a BCM4306
[10:18] <Anusien2> MedAdult: Mine is a compaq laptop that no one else seems to have
[10:18] <MehAdult> Only mine is a 4318 not a 4306
[10:18] <Anusien2> zukalk: You don't need ndiswrapper then if you want to use the kernel module
[10:18] <linuxboyfriend> gnomefreak, no i mean i heard something about that usenet, that by using usernet clients you can download things like music or something else?
[10:18] <Chris_H> can no-one here help me?
[10:19] <SystemBomber> damn, i need to get my BCM4303 work with WPA too
[10:19] <gnomefreak> jpoje: i did too ;) but im working on adding some once i figure that out ill be happy ;)
[10:19] <MehAdult> Anusien2: What is the output of lspci | grep BCM
[10:19] <zukalk> Anusien2: what should i do then?
[10:19] <gnomefreak> linuxboyfriend: that i dont know
[10:19] <Thralas> What need I get in order to be able to use `crypt`?
[10:19] <jpoje> BlueNinja: I would try google to look at xscreensaver/gnome-session errors - I have to drive down to school now, or I would stay and help - good luck
[10:19] <SystemBomber> #bcm-users (think)
[10:19] <jpoje> !
[10:19] <linuxboyfriend> gnomefreak, hmm
[10:19] <Anusien2> MedAdult: Reformatting...

[10:27] <ubotu> somebody said vnc was http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-36715.html, or http://www.tightvnc.com/docs.html, or see 'x11vnc' (VNC server which uses your current X11 session)
[10:27] <okfine> anybody an expert with the dapper install (namely making partitions for dual boot)
[10:27] <Morrowyn> weee, just saw that cedega officually support guildwars
[10:27] <Morrowyn> cant wait to check it out
[10:27] <jwilf> but the previous kernel still boots and all the options are the same in grub
[10:28] <GoClick> !firewall
[10:28] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
[10:28] <Scorpmoon> i really don't get why there is no installation docs for ubuntu
[10:28] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Because its stupid simple :P
[10:28] <Scorpmoon> i selected "install" from the live cd, and then it just runs ubuntu from CD
[10:28] <Scorpmoon> now what?
[10:28] <Scorpmoon> i need to partition i guess
[10:28] <Scorpmoon> but gparted I cant find
[10:28] <Krpano> what is the comand to check if i have 3d accelleration ?
[10:28] <jjazz_> Scorpmoon: I think you want the install CD rather than the live CD.
[10:28] <Scorpmoon> omg

[10:29] <mlehrer> mmm paste tastes good
[10:29] <jwilf> anyone have any ideas on my boot problem... i'm stumped

[10:31] <shwag> okfine: yes
[10:31] <Spec> okfine: Please make a backup first.
[10:31] <TimothyP> not that I ever use the ubuntu/sudo way :p
[10:31] <okfine> I've got the data i can't lose on CD
[10:31] <duane_> ok another question. Is it just me or are white textures in gnome or kde NOT as bright as white textures in xp?
[10:31] <okfine> the rest is expendable
[10:31] <Spec> okfine: shoot for it then :)
[10:31] <TimothyP> I always sudo su  and then passwd anyway :p
[10:31] <zOap> duane_, what??
[10:31] <okfine> Spec, when I create the two new partitions one should be primary and the other extended?
[10:32] <Spec> TimothyP: sudo bash as well
[10:32] <longest_day> does the ubuntu upgrade screw the /home repertory ?
[10:32] <jwilf> TimothyP: just use sudo -i
[10:32] <duane_> i have always noticed that the color white is not as bright in kde or gnome
[10:32] <TimothyP> what does it do
[10:32] <duane_> as it is in xp
[10:32] <GoClick> I installed a pre-release version of dapper how can I make sure everything is updated now that it's out. Will the normal update thingy keep it up or do I need to issue a special command, ie get things that were added etc
[10:32] <zOap> duane_, maybe it's your graphic card driver.have you calibrated?
[10:33] <bmk789> when trying to make a call in skype, i get a "problem with sound device" message, how do i fix this?
[10:33] <TimothyP> apt-get update &&  apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:33] <duane_> yes
[10:33] <jwilf> is nobody interested that i can't boot the new kernel after upgrading to dapper? :(
[10:33] <TimothyP> jwilf I'm not proficient enough to help sorry m8
[10:33] <jwilf> i'd be really grateful for any suggestions
[10:34] <zOap> method|, then I don't know. My guess it's the driver. Have nothing to do with gnome or kde
[10:34] <disinterested_pe> i went back to breezy cause i had problems with dapper
[10:34] <jwilf> TimothyP: ok no worries
[10:34] <rackerz> hey
[10:34] <rackerz> can anyone help me get my webcam going?
[10:34] <zOap> rackerz, try to be more specific
[10:34] <Paradoxx> What vnc client do you guys recommend??
[10:35] <Scorpmoon> Spec, that is the file I have!! then why does ubuntu start from CD when I click "start or install" in boot menu?
[10:35] <okfine> guys I just ran into a small problem with partitioning
[10:35] <nbx909> Paradoxx, vnc
[10:35] <nbx909> lol
[10:35] <TimothyP> ooh nice very nice I plug in my usb headset and ubuntu notifies me of it :)
[10:35] <rackerz> zOap I've got a logitech quickcam express, it used to work with easycam2 before i re-installed.
[10:35] <okfine> i freed up some space with Gparted in install and then created a new partition... but i cant create one more for swap
[10:35] <zOap> Scorpmoon, when you boot there is an icon on the desktop. INSTALL
[10:35] <jwilf> wow - is it just me or is firefox 1.5 MUCH faster than 1.03 on ubuntu
[10:35] <okfine> it says something about extended partitions being able to contain primaries
[10:35] <TimothyP> Paradoxx I use xtightvnc
[10:35] <Scorpmoon> lol so there is
[10:35] <Paradoxx> I mean which vnc server. Cause like i see realvnc which i have used b4, tightvnc etc etc
[10:35] <okfine> (my computer came with a couple of bull primary partitions from Dell)
[10:36] <Scorpmoon> thats not logic to a windows user though
[10:36] <disinterested_pe> its not just u ] wilf
[10:36] <zOap> rackerz, sorry, don't know that one. But there are lots of howtos on google
[10:36] <nbx909> jwilf, it's even faster if you don't use the ubuntu verson and install the mozilla verson
[10:36] <Scorpmoon> and windows users are the ones you wanna hijack right?
[10:36] <Paradoxx> TimothyP: whats so special about tightvnc
[10:36] <lss> Hi, does anyone know any nice networking guides to get my windows xp + ubuntu 6.10 LTS working? thank you.
[10:36] <NoUse> Paradoxx there is a vnc server built into gnome
[10:36] <TimothyP> Paradoxx it works: p
[10:36] <Paradoxx> kk
[10:36] <nbx909> !tell jwilf about firefox1.5
[10:36] <NoUse> Paradoxx System -> Prefs -> Remote desktop
[10:36] <zOap> Scorpmoon, we don't want to hijack anyone
[10:36] <carbo> is there a way to hide all icons on the gnome desktop?
[10:36] <jwilf> nbx909: ?
[10:36] <Paradoxx> NoUse: what client you recommend
[10:36] <Paradoxx> ?
[10:36] <NoUse> Paradoxx tightvnc is fine
[10:37] <jwilf> nbx909: ah, ok
[10:37] <okfine> fellas the main ubuntu partition needs to be primary right?
[10:37] <longest_day> carbo, yes
[10:37] <nbx909> jwilf, install firefox from that guide and it will run even faster
[10:37] <Vaske_Car> Is 450Mhz / 128mbRAM enought for server installation of 6.06?
[10:37] <nbx909> Vaske_Car, yeah
[10:37] <carbo> longest_day: and what's that? I can't find any option
[10:37] <jwilf> nbx909: what guide?
[10:37] <Vaske_Car> installing :)
[10:37] <nbx909> jwilf, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[10:37] <longest_day> in the gconf i think
[10:37] <jwilf> nbx909: ah, got it :-)
[10:37] <jwilf> thanks
[10:37] <longest_day> you can hide the "volume" icons
[10:38] <fiendskull9> hey
[10:38] <fiendskull9> whats hda4 on hda in grub terms?
[10:38] <longest_day> and/or the "computer" icon
[10:38] <okfine> anybody available to chat via PM about dual boot installation partitions
[10:38] <brmiller> Am I to understand that you need to use the alternate CD if you have any system involving RAID?
[10:38] <fiendskull9> would it be hd0, 3
[10:38] <okfine> i can't figure this out
[10:38] <avis> i dont know grub well enough
[10:38] <avis> i know lilo
[10:39] <longest_day> carbo, once you're in gconf, you go there: /apps/nautilus/desktop
[10:39] <Boglizk> What happend to the fonts? (I just updated to dapper)
[10:39] <carbo> longest_day: ah, okay, then I have to remove everything else normally... was hoping for a hide all option
[10:40] <pvd2006> okfine, yes the ubuntu main partition needs to be primary, then you need a swap partition.
[10:40] <longest_day> ho
[10:40] <shwag> What are backports?
[10:40] <okfine> i cant create another partition tho pvd
[10:40] <longest_day> then i don't know
[10:40] <okfine> my computer came with 3 already on it from Dell
[10:40] <okfine> i can create an additional primary but then i cant create any more
[10:40] <Pepino> hi, I installed Ubuntu and use GRUB, but at boot time it send me the error 17:
[10:41] <pvd2006> okfine, you can resize partitions with certain tools. or format an other partition for swap as long as its not too big.
[10:41] <Pepino> then I tried suse with LILO as the loader and it works fine
[10:41] <pvd2006> Okfine, how much memory do you have?
[10:41] <okfine> 37 gigs, about 7 of which i just freed up by shrinking my windows partition
[10:42] <Pepino> then I want to install Ubuntu with LILO as the loader, but can't find where can i change the option
[10:42] <zukalk> MehAdult: i'm back
[10:42] <okfine> so i created a 6 gig ubuntu primary in that space
[10:42] <okfine> but now i cant do anything to make a swap
[10:42] <zukalk> Spec: how can you help me? and sorry for taking so long
[10:42] <pvd2006> okfine, how much Ram do you have?
[10:42] <okfine> i believe 512
[10:42] <okfine> im on a laptop
[10:42] <pvd2006> Oh, then I would definitely put a swap partition with 512megs of memory.
[10:43] <pvd2006> Hmm
[10:43] <okfine> im afraid to screw around with any of the dell installed partitions cause im sure one of them is the windows install
[10:43] <okfine> and i dont want to have to call for a CD lol
[10:43] <Vaske_Car> how to install SSH server?
[10:43] <NoUse> Vaske_Car sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[10:43] <t-thing> Hi. Where on earth does angband save game?
[10:44] <redrum> okfine you can use GParted LiveCD to resize partitions relatively safely
[10:44] <Vaske_Car> NoUse, and do I need to install client side as well on client PC?
[10:44] <pvd2006> okfine, you can tell which one has windows on it.
[10:44] <okfine> i was able to when i ran fdisk last night but i cant remember how to do that
[10:44] <SurfnKid> ok back online
[10:44] <NoUse> Vaske_Car you'll need a client on the PC you are connecting from, yes
[10:44] <Ron_o> For Dapper, are they allowing you to pick and choose which apps to get rid of, unlike in Breezy?
[10:44] <SurfnKid> at a cybercafe :S
[10:44] <pvd2006> okfine, what operating system are you on right now? Windows?
[10:44] <CactusWiZaRd> does Ubuntu support ttf -fonts?
[10:45] <Vaske_Car> NoUse, let me first install everything on server
[10:45] <caepc> HELLO ubus
[10:45] <supertanker> hi

[10:45] <supertanker> any way to download all the pkgs with apt-get and burn them to CD if I need them later?
[10:45] <pvd2006> ohhh ok, good.
[10:45] <okfine> i have XP on this PC tho
[10:45] <CactusWiZaRd> longest_day: thanks :)
[10:45] <caepc> im trying to decide which distro to use for it....because it's going to be a pita on slackware (no source supplied, only rpms)
[10:45] <mwe> supertanker: yes
[10:46] <supertanker> how?
[10:46] <supertanker> where do the pkgs go? do I need to lay them out on the cd in a special way?
[10:46] <runelind> I tried doing sudo modprobe fglrx and it said operation not permitted
[10:46] <mwe> supertanker: apt-get -d will download only. read 'man apt-get' for details
[10:46] <runelind> I have the restricted modules installed
[10:47] <supertanker> so do I need to put them on the cd in a special way?
[10:47] <mwe> supertanker: no
[10:47] <runelind> anyone know what's up?  this is a fresh install of dapper
[10:47] <quirky> is anyone getting random freezes in Dapper?
[10:47] <mwe> supertanker: but you have to install them with sudo dpkg -i
[10:47] <mwe> supertanker: they go to  /var/cache/apt/archives/
