[03:07] <TheMinion> Frogzoo: ok, thanks
[03:07] <kuja> Talking about peer-directed projects.
[03:07] <Amaranth> BearPerson: I figure 10 or so minutes of that will get rid of them.
[03:07] <kuja> s/Talking/Talk/
[03:07] <mshade> Steve^, gksudo ?
[03:07] <BearPerson> kuja, peers helping peers :)
[03:07] <NickGarvey> I can't remote connect to the kde boot screen, but I can to the gnome and then choose kde for session, which is good enough
[03:07] <Amaranth> kuja: startkeylogger in ##windows probably kills the room :P
[03:08] <smo> sophie__: if you've got an environment where partitions are constantly coming and going, shrinking and growing, it is.  if you're going to treat it like a normal partition, it's likely easier just being a normal partition
[03:08] <YukiCuss> kuja, amazing isn't it? :)
[03:08] <kuja> Amaranth: Sounds like fun, but lilo would kill me :)
[03:08] <BearPerson> kline, not kill :)
[03:08] <MalevolenT> lol
[03:08] <Steve^> mshade, nothing happens :(
[03:08] <sophie__> smo, ahh i see, more of an enterprise tool then
[03:08] <BearPerson> there's a fine difference ;-)
[03:08] <kuja> BearPerson: I almost got klined for it :)
[03:08] <logical_mark> Could someone please tell me what is causing this and how to fix it? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10539
[03:08] <pppoe_dude> Amaranth, lol
[03:08] <JustinMP> Amaranth: The Synaptic Package Manager says I have the fglrx drivers installed
[03:08] <mshade> Steve^, i could probably help more if i were on ubuntu rightnow :) i'm in slackware, so i cant exactly test the oddities of ubuntu's root setup
[03:09] <Amaranth> JustinMP: ok, open a terminal and run 'sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.con'
[03:09] <Amaranth> JustinMP: without quotes, of course
[03:09] <JustinMP> Amaranth: xorg.con or xorg.conf
[03:09] <mshade> JustinMP, and with an f on the end
[03:09] <Steve^> mshade, how exactly does sudo work? Is there a program somewhere that has been busted?
[03:09] <eirejah> can anyone help me out with the chmod command to allow a user read and write access to all of the files in his /home directory .. currently he is locked out of a few of them
[03:10] <eirejah> and i cant get into gnome to do it with gui because my gnome is broke right now as you know  :(
[03:12] <Steve^> mshade, i'll try a different kernel on boot :/
[03:12] <Steve^> brb
[03:12] <Amaranth> oops
[03:12] <Amaranth> conf
[03:12] <JustinMP> lol
[03:12] <JustinMP> figured :)
[03:12] <YukiCuss> logical_mark, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=141691
[03:12] <YukiCuss> Similar problems as you.
[03:12] <logical_mark> Thanks YukiCuss
[03:12] <JustinMP> Amaranth: I'm in
[03:12] <NickGarvey> I had to go in there once
[03:12] <Amaranth> JustinMP: Look for Driver		"ati"
[03:12] <NickGarvey> to find out if MS word was backways compatable with another version
[03:12] <NickGarvey> scary stuff in there
[03:12] <Amaranth> JustinMP: If you find it, change it to Driver		"fglrx"
[03:12] <JustinMP> I found it
[03:12] <JustinMP> changed it
[03:12] <JustinMP> Saved it
[03:12] <intelikey> why doesn't this "Xterm*font:                     -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-* "  change the default starting fonts for xterm to  18 point ?    what is wrong in that syntax ?     i need to manually set the fonts size.   anyone ?
[03:12] <Amaranth> JustinMP: Ok, now log out and hit Ctrl-Alt-backspace when you get to the login screen
[03:12] <Amaranth> JustinMP: then login
[03:12] <JustinMP> ok
[03:12] <JustinMP> I will be right back
[03:12] <YukiCuss> intelikey, you've asked a few times, no one's answered. Maybe no one on right now knows the answer, maybe just no one feels like speaking up.  Which server did, then?
[03:13] <kuja> :P
[03:13] <Amaranth> YukiCuss: no idea
[03:14] <Fujitsu> That was quite major, though.
[03:14] <_jason> clarke I believe
[03:14] <Fujitsu> Knocked out a large portion.
[03:14] <IdleOne> YukiCuss, neither server did they just split so to the ppl on the other side it looked like we all left
[03:14] <neoxan> hey cool
[03:14] <Amaranth> _jason: no, no clarke either
[03:14] <neoxan> netsplit
[03:14] <Amaranth> _jason: i'm on clarke
[03:14] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: Hey, I'm back (sorry).
[03:14] <intelikey> YukiCuss there should be someone in here that knows enough about  .Xresources  to answer that question,   if they ever read it....       lol with scrolls like that tho.....
[03:14] <_jason> Amaranth: ah then so am I, I misinterpreted what irssi said
[03:14] <YukiCuss> IdleOne, noted, I was just wondering with which server we split. [splat?]
[03:15] <_jason> Amaranth: how do you see what server you are on?
[03:15] <Amaranth> _jason: it said in the split
[03:15] <NickGarvey> how do I change my default desktop from kdm to gdm without uninstalling kdm
[03:15] <Amaranth> _jason: <yourserver>.freenode.net irc.freenode.net
[03:15] <_jason> Amaranth: ah :)
[03:16] <_jason> Amaranth: how did you know whoever it was, was on brown
[03:16] <NickGarvey> gasp YukiCuss knows windows too
[03:16] <intelikey> NickGarvey neither kdm nor gdm is a desktop
[03:16] <NickGarvey> I meant display manager
[03:16] <Amaranth> _jason: because they thought brown died :)
[03:16] <phantasmoholic> How do you change default Open With Applications - in Nautilus
[03:16] <NickGarvey> the screen that shows up when I turn on my computer heh
[03:16] <_jason> Amaranth: haha, I understand now...
[03:16] <YukiCuss> NickGarvey, it's true.
[03:16] <Amaranth> _jason: and most people think that quit message means that server went away
[03:16] <eirejah> tonyyarusso: np
[03:16] <NickGarvey> that asks me to log in
[03:16] <intelikey> they are both display managers that kick off desktop environments
[03:16] <NickGarvey> yeah I'm being stupid
[03:16] <NickGarvey> anyway
[03:16] <_jason> Amaranth: maybe time to open up #ubuntu?
[03:16] <NickGarvey> how do I change it?
[03:16] <Amaranth> i thought i did
[03:17] <YukiCuss> Amaranth, still seems +i.
[03:17] <Amaranth> split must have broken it
[03:17] <Amaranth> i did it right before the split
[03:17] <JustinMP> Yayy lol
[03:17] <Gwynn> erhm
[03:17] <na7e> yay
[03:17] <JustinMP> Amaranth: It didn't help
[03:17] <Amaranth> JustinMP: hrm
[03:17] <JustinMP> Amaranth: Games n stuff still use 100% CPU also
[03:17] <yamathan> Hey, I've been told that I need to set up chroot to get these w32codecs running in an amd64-generic setup.
[03:18] <__mikem> ok good I am back in
[03:18] <yamathan> How do I do that?
[03:18] <Amaranth> JustinMP: run fglrx_glxinfo
[03:18] <NickGarvey> wow that was easy
[03:18] <neo911> REGISTER nickserv neo911
[03:18] <na7e> lol
[03:18] <neo911> fuck!
[03:18] <JustinMP> Amaranth: justin@Plutonium:~$ fglrx_glxinfo
[03:18] <JustinMP> bash: fglrx_glxinfo: command not found
[03:18] <JustinMP> justin@Plutonium:~$
[03:18] <NickGarvey> !language
[03:18] <ubotu> rumour has it, language is 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.
[03:18] <Kaiser_Away> lol
[03:18] <na7e> add a / to the front of that, lol
[03:18] <Amaranth> neo911: /msg NickServ register <password>

[03:18] <IdleOne> neo911, language
[03:18] <Amaranth> JustinMP: maybe it's fglrxinfo
[03:18] <intelikey> NickGarvey there is a gui way in the system settings iirc  also the startup script in /etc/rc2.d/
[03:18] <Amaranth> JustinMP: I don't have that card or those programs so I'm not sure
[03:18] <_jason> neo911: choose a password different than your nickname!
[03:18] <neo911> i thought no one can see my posts
[03:18] <__mikem> why was I locked out of the room
[03:18] <YukiCuss> __mikem, entire room was locked out.
[03:19] <NickGarvey> intelikey: as it turns out there is a file called default-display-manager in /etc/X11
[03:19] <__mikem> oh
[03:19] <YukiCuss> To prevent the exploiting people.
[03:19] <NickGarvey> changed it from /usr/bin/kdm to /usr/bin/gdm
[03:19] <phantasmoholic> How do you set default Open With applications in Nautilus, the current help doesn't apply
[03:19] <yamathan> Uh ...
[03:19] <intelikey> sorry, slow answer,  yes there also.   and in the xinit
[03:19] <yamathan> How do I set up chroot to get these w32codecs to run properly?
[03:19] <_jason> phantasmoholic: right click > properties > open with
[03:19] <neo911> how come i need to register now... i've been talking here a few days now without the need to?
[03:19] <yamathan> *win32 codecs
[03:20] <phantasmoholic> _jason: does that set it system wide for that type or just for that single file
[03:20] <_jason> phantasmoholic: for the type
[03:20] <YukiCuss> neo911, you don't have to.
[03:20] <IdleOne> !tell neo911 about register
[03:20] <phantasmoholic> _jason: awesome, thanks
[03:20] <__mikem> !register
[03:20] <ubotu> methinks register is type /msg nickserv help register (you probably should do this in the server window so that if you mess up you won't reveal your password to the whole channel :))
[03:20] <Noah0504> So, has anyone heard Novell's claim about their next release of SuSE?  They said it will be on par and superior to Windows XP.
[03:20] <MrBIOS> hi there, does Ubuntu have an automount facility?
[03:20] <Amaranth> Noah0504: have you seen it?
[03:20] <intelikey> neo911 cause some kids are making life miserable for you.
[03:20] <Frogzoo> Noah0504: they probly have a point
[03:21] <Amaranth> Noah0504: it's got xgl and compiz as default plus a bunch of gnome tweaks and good apps
[03:21] <__mikem> Ubuntu is already superior to windows xp in my oppinion
[03:21] <neo911> intelikey, how is that?
[03:21] <Noah0504> Amaranth: No, I thought about downloading the latest beta, but I think the final release will be out soon enough.
[03:21] <Amaranth> Noah0504: not until october
[03:21] <Amaranth> Noah0504: or sometime in fall
[03:21] <Noah0504> Amaranth: Really?  Well, maybe I should check out a beta, haha.
[03:21] <btdown> I just loaded the 10.8 beta on a laptop and its nice..still a pain to update, though...YAST/YOU really suxxors.
[03:21] <Amaranth> Noah0504: So it's "my unreleased widget is better than your 5 year old widget!"   However, I think they are trying to show that Linux can be just as easy and even more functional than Windows...(Which most of us know it already is...)
[03:22] <hernan> buenasss a todosss
[03:22] <Steve^> no mshade?
[03:23] <Coweater> e
[03:23] <hernan> alguien habla espaol?
[03:23] <yamathan> Hey, uh, how can I install win32 drivers in x64?
[03:23] <Amaranth> !es
[03:23] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:23] <Amaranth> yamathan: you can't
[03:23] <yamathan> Amaranth:  Oh?
[03:23] <aqualad> i can't get wine working, could anyone help me?
[03:23] <YukiCuss> yamathan, it's a sad truth. Consider setting up a chroot.
[03:23] <IdleOne> aqualad, sudo apt-get install wine
[03:23] <tonyyarusso> neo911: I went into Windows last night and uninstalled all kinds of nonsense, saved myself 1.67GB.
[03:23] <yamathan> YukiCuss: How do I do that?
[03:23] <Amaranth> yamathan: chroot or install the 32-bit version
[03:23] <neo911> i think the only problem with ubuntu for now for recruiting new users is its need for internet connection
[03:24] <YukiCuss> yamathan, I'll find it, one moment.
[03:24] <Steve^> NOTE: If anyone else's sudo breaks - You can use your failsafe boot option to get into a root console, edit your grub menu.lst and therefore get back into Windows! Yay!
[03:24] <Amaranth> yamathan: using the amd64 version doesn't really get you anything
[03:24] <aqualad> IdleOne: i have wine installed, but i need to install the dependencies, but sudo apt-get build-dep wine gives me an error, says it cannot build dependencies
[03:24] <YukiCuss> yamathan, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575&highlight=32+bit+chroot <-- not a definitive guide, but works.
[03:24] <yamathan> Amaranth:  I can't really install it very well. : P
[03:24] <intelikey> neo911 if you would have been here a little bit ago you wouldn't need to ask,  join/part messages so thick you couldn't read anyones post.
[03:24] <neo911> tonyyarusso, then you had to resize the partition? otherwise it woud still be owned by Windows
[03:24] <holycow> guys ... what is the story with oo.org2 in breezy, are there full backports available of 2.0.2 for breezy?
[03:24] <Noah0504> I freed up over 10GB by deciding to just store my music on my iPod.
[03:24] <Noah0504> Best decision in awhile...
[03:24] <Noah0504> haha
[03:24] <YukiCuss> Noah0504, 10GiB? how wasteful! >_>;
[03:24] <neo911> intelikey, ah ha ha
[03:24] <Amaranth> holycow: nope
[03:25] <YukiCuss> Noah0504, how big is your harddrive?
[03:25] <Frogzoo> holycow: last I saw were these...
[03:25] <MrBIOS> hollywoodstar, is 2.0.2 out?
[03:25] <Frogzoo> !ooo2
[03:25] <ubotu> To upgrade to OOo 2.0.x, see http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2005-October/012520.html (add one of the 'deb' lines to sources.list and update+upgrade)
[03:25] <__mikem> Your worst decision was to buy the Ipod, now you have to buy your music from ITunes for the rest of your life
[03:25] <MrBIOS> holycow, rather
[03:25] <concept10> Are there any advantages of running the Ubuntu versions of Firefox and Thunderbird over running the releases straight from Mozilla?
[03:25] <Amaranth> oh, wrong again
[03:25] <Amaranth> hehe
[03:25] <holycow> alrighty :)
[03:25] <MrBIOS> __mikem, uh, no
[03:25] <Noah0504> YukiCuss: 20GB!   Like not buying music at all. >_>
[03:25] <tonyyarusso> neo911: Correct.
[03:25] <holycow> its just that 1.9.x is beyond buggy
[03:25] <YukiCuss> neo911, nice. xP
[03:25] <YukiCuss> Noah0504, wow.!
[03:26] <__mikem> Oh, yes thats true
[03:26] <hernan> can i copy cd with ubuntu?
[03:26] <YukiCuss> I can't remember having anything that small .. my hard drive is ten times that. (no innuendo or you will be slain)
[03:26] <neoxan> sure
[03:26] <neo911> im planning on buying an external harddisk
[03:26] <intelikey> herman i hope so.
[03:26] <Noah0504> YukiCuss: I planned on upgrading...but I spent all my money on an iPod, haha.
[03:26] <Frogzoo> holycow: the test 2.0.2 is a huge improvement over 1.9
[03:26] <YukiCuss> Noah0504, which version?
[03:26] <concept10> Amaranth, do you mean the Translations (launchpad) and disabling of the Auto updates features patches?
[03:26] <Mischevious> hm
[03:26] <tonyyarusso> concept10: Integration with apt and letting other apps access the gecko engine.
[03:26] <Noah0504> YukiCuss: 30GB Video iPod.
[03:26] <Amaranth> concept10: iirc it also uses the gnome mime system to figure out what to open things in
[03:26] <hernan> version 5.04
[03:27] <YukiCuss> Aah.
[03:27] <YukiCuss> I think I must have the polar opposite; yours has a fully featured colour screen, mine has no screen at all. :)
[03:27] <neo911> do you think it'sjust a matter of time before everyone is using linux? ubuntu?
[03:27] <tonyyarusso> concept10: You have to have Ubuntu's Firefox build or a lot of stuff will break.  You can add 1.5 on top of it though, just don't uninstall.
[03:27] <eth0_> hernan: download gnomebaker with synaptic
[03:27] <YukiCuss> neo911, the numbers sure are growing.
[03:27] <tonyyarusso> neo911: Everyone?  No.  More people?  Yes.
[03:27] <intelikey> herman  cdrecord/xcdroast/gtoaster/gcombust/nautilus-burning/k3b   and i probably failed to think of a cd burner or two.
[03:28] <holycow> Frogzoo, yeah, if i were mark i would of disregarded the 'security patches only' and released an update for oo2 ... its that big of a diff
[03:28] <YukiCuss> We are still miles ahead of competition on distrowatch (2711 and growing).
[03:28] <neo911> tonyyarusso, majority? will it ever exceed Windows users?
[03:28] <Amaranth> holycow: major bugfixes get into breezy-updates
[03:28] <majd> any dvd players that actually work out there? totem didn't, vlc doesn't support the menus
[03:28] <holycow> Frogzoo, and 2.0.2 is still as crashy as heck, at least on windows, i found 2 reproducible crashes on thurday even
[03:28] <tonyyarusso> neo911: That is unless the EU seriously ups its fines on Microsoft and they go bankrupt, which would make me laugh a lot.
[03:28] <Noah0504> Has anyone used Autopackage?   It seems like a really great program, however, they don't seem to have to many packages.
[03:28] <Frogzoo> holycow: unless you want to announce 2.2 for dapper ;)
[03:28] <Amaranth> holycow: but something like OOo2 has so many things it can fix or break with every release
[03:28] <chuckyp> !tell majd about restricted
[03:28] <holycow> Amaranth, heh, 2.0.2 would of quilified as a majour bug fix imho :)
[03:29] <neo911> cuz this is the easiest to install and use distro ive used so far
[03:29] <tonyyarusso> neo911: We shall just have to see.  You can be part of the difference.  (Give away disks, talk it up, etc.  Most Windows users aren't even aware other options exist.)
[03:29] <concept10> tonyyarusso, Ive been using a local firefox install since 1.5 was released and then updated and I have the local and .deb install.  My biggest problem now is that links in thunderbird open in links2 instead of the default browser
[03:29] <whiter> anyone know why i get this
[03:29] <holycow> Amaranth, *nod* maybe i've never tried to compile that
[03:29] <whiter> /bin/sh: ./configure: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied
[03:29] <whiter> ?
[03:29] <Gwynn> I remember a time when my 40Mb HD had to be formatted in 32 and 8 Mb cause the current dos version couldnt handle larger, and you consider *what* wastefull? :-D
[03:29] <Wharf> Hi there
[03:29] <YukiCuss> tonyyarusso, that last point is especially true; most people falter when I try to explain what another harddrive is.
[03:29] <Wharf> How do i make ssh avalable?
[03:29] <chuckyp> whiter, did you install build-essential
[03:29] <Wharf> To connect to
[03:29] <Amaranth> whiter: ls -l /bin/sh
[03:29] <chuckyp> !tell whiter about compile
[03:29] <neo911> 40MB hardidisk lol
[03:29] <Noah0504> Gwynn: haha
[03:29] <htrp> what is .rpm files?
[03:29] <Wharf> Fast files
[03:29] <YukiCuss> htrp, nothing you want to know about. xP
[03:30] <Wharf> hehe
[03:30] <tonyyarusso> concept10: That's a whole different issue I think, and I'm not sure what to do about it.  Some TB extension or preference might let you configure that.
[03:30] <Kaiser_Away> neo911: don't nock the 40m hdd :S
[03:30] <chuckyp> !tell htrp about rpm
[03:30] <Amaranth> htrp: packages for either redhat, suse, or mandrake
[03:30] <intelikey> anyone know .Xresources  well enough to tell me why this line doesn't set my xterm fonts to 18 point ???   "Xterm*font:                     -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"   ?
[03:30] <tonyyarusso> YukiCuss: Yeah.  The world is clueless.
[03:30] <whiter> yes i installed build essential
[03:30] <Noah0504> I have an old Zenith Data Systems laptop in my closet with a massive 10MB HDD.
[03:30] <whiter> Amaranth what to do with ls-l /bin/sh ?
[03:30] <neo911> Kaiser_Away, 40MB hd drive lol
[03:30] <Wharf> Can someone tell me how to activate ssh, so i can connect to the computer from another machine
[03:30] <Noah0504> It may not ever be that big.
[03:30] <Amaranth> whiter: what is the output os ls -l /bin/sh
[03:30] <Noah0504> *even
[03:30] <Amaranth> whiter: type that into a terminal
[03:30] <Kaiser_Away> neo911: i hav ea full night 10.5mb hdd :S
[03:30] <Mischevious> Wharf, sudo apt-get install open-ssh server
[03:30] <Kaiser_Away> *hight
[03:30] <whiter> lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 4 2006-02-10 16:07 /bin/sh -> bash
[03:31] <Amaranth> whiter: ok
[03:31] <chuckyp> !tell Wharf about ssh
[03:31] <Amaranth> whiter: i'm not seeing why that would fail
[03:31] <rcsolutions> I don't have permission to access a partition of my HD. Here it says that the one that has the permission is root. How do I login as root?
[03:31] <Gwynn> I could put my games (leisure suit larry, police quest, kings quest) all on the 8 Mb part, now a game patch is 3x the entire ancient HD
[03:31] <Mischevious> rcsolutions, use sudo
[03:31] <IdleOne> Wharf, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[03:31] <chuckyp> !tell rcsolutions about sudo
[03:31] <Amaranth> !tell rcsolutions about root
[03:31] <neo911> tonyyarusso, i'll try to spread the news!
[03:31] <Amaranth> ack
[03:31] <chuckyp> lol
[03:31] <tonyyarusso> neo911: Onward!
[03:31] <intelikey> ssh is like this really cool way to gain root access on someone else's computer.....
[03:31] <Wharf> I already have that installed
[03:32] <crazyhors> what is the most popular way to setup a printer with (k)ubutu?
[03:32] <Wharf> Just duno how to run it
[03:32] <Wharf> lol
[03:32] <chuckyp> intelikey, not really
[03:32] <intelikey> :)
[03:32] <chuckyp> Wharf, read the link form ubotu
[03:32] <intelikey> shure it is.   if they haven't set ssh to refuse root login.  and you know the password :)
[03:32] <Eroick> there isnt mozilla 1.5 in breezy's app tree yet?!
[03:32] <holycow> oops
[03:32] <chuckyp> crazyhors, most popular?  did you try the wiki?
[03:32] <EdLin> crazyhors, Ubuntu offers its own in System / Administration / Printing
[03:33] <holycow> ctrl / - actually scales down the font in gnome terminal
[03:33] <NickGarvey> !ff1.5
[03:33] <holycow> weird
[03:33] <holycow> heh
[03:33] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[03:33] <MrBIOS> hi folks, I am having flicker problems with X11R7 (Xorg7) and my ATI Radeon Mobility 7500
[03:33] <MrBIOS> in 3D mode
[03:33] <chuckyp> !tell Eroick about ff1.5
[03:33] <Gwynn> and the only reason Im staring at an M$ machine is oss adept dont get them games runnin' .. silly cause like the jesuits said: gimme a child under 12 and I give you a christian for life..  :-D
[03:33] <MrBIOS> any suggestions?
[03:33] <holycow> ah zoom support
[03:33] <holycow> nice
[03:33] <Blus> Hey.
[03:33] <chuckyp> MrBIOS, what type of monitor?
[03:33] <NickGarvey> Gwynn: I use windows also, BUT I have another computer running linux in which I remotely connect to and use giving me the full linux enviroment
[03:34] <Eroick> so dapper has been delayed?
[03:34] <crazyhors> chuckyp, EdLin ,  thanks
[03:34] <chuckyp> !tell Eroick about dapper
[03:34] <Frogzoo> Eroick: 6 weeks apparently
[03:34] <MrBIOS> chuckyp, LCD
[03:34] <EdLin> Gwynn, I have 15 games in my menu.
[03:34] <chuckyp> MrBIOS, is it maybe switching to a lower refresh rate?
[03:35] <bk> NickGarvey, how do you connect to your computer remotely?  suppose you were offsite, do you use the ip address given in the information for your username to the right?
[03:35] <MrBIOS> chuckyp, shouldnt matter.
[03:35] <wd3> how can i install xfce in ubuntu
[03:35] <chuckyp> MrBIOS, well it does but ok
[03:35] <MrBIOS> I honestly dont think its refresh rate related
[03:35] <chuckyp> wd3, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[03:35] <MrBIOS> chuckyp, why would it be switching to a lower refresh rate, anyways?
[03:35] <Nick_Garvey> !xfce
[03:35] <ubotu> xfce is, like, totally, a lightweight Desktop Environment that uses GTK. to install, "sudo apt-get install xfce4" or "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". http://www.xfce.org/
[03:35] <Gwynn> MickGarvey: I have loads of machines runnin'loads of linuxes and just 1 machine running M$ to allow me my World of Warcraft, Horizons, Asheron Call, Dark Ages of Camelot, Guild Wars just to name a few, and I believe the lack of gaming support in the oss community is a blind spot, imho
[03:35] <MrBIOS> the panel doesn't care, you can send it 60hz video or 75hz video, looks the same
[03:36] <eth0_> bk: no, you use your username for your username
[03:36] <Blus> DCC SEND "stopkeylogger" 0 0 0
[03:36] <intelikey> wd3 use apt-cache search xfce and get the correct package name then  sudo apt-get install <that name>
[03:36] <chuckyp> Gwynn, you can play all those games in linux
[03:36] <chuckyp> jesus
[03:36] <Nick_Garvey> Gwynn, mm well if you can get devolpers to reconise the power of linux then you deserve a cookie
[03:36] <Nick_Garvey> and also
[03:36] <Gwynn> chuckyp: that so?
[03:36] <Nick_Garvey> !tell gwynn about wine
[03:36] <chuckyp> Amaranth, can you ban blus he's dcc'ng as well.
[03:36] <smo> Gwynn, as long as those games are closed source, it's the other way around.  lack of oss support in the gaming community
[03:36] <chuckyp> Gwynn, check out wine or cedega
[03:36] <Amaranth> *sigh*
[03:36] <eirejah> here we gooooo again
[03:36] <Gwynn> wan some cheese to go with the whine?
[03:37] <bk> eth0, i know that, but isn't the syntax "ssh -l username ip_address"?
[03:37] <dj-fu> DCC SEND "stopkeylogger" 0 0 0
[03:37] <eth0_> bk: yeah that's right
[03:37] <william> how can i change my password for my account?

[03:39] <william> hmm my terminal says Starting Terminal and then it dissapears and nothing opens?
[03:39] <eth0_> bk: and no i didn't see..
[03:39] <EdLin> sorryd, if you're running gdm (the default) you would have to restart the gdm desktop manager.
[03:39] <Gwynn> nick_garvey: thanx, I knew that and smo, Im aware of that, still, my point is the lack of an *active* approach, not a generic wine for (some) windows &c
[03:39] <chuckyp> nmap comming
[03:39] <Amaranth> chuckyp: don't
[03:39] <__mikem> amaranth what do you mean he aparently didn't know what he was doing

[03:39] <chuckyp> Amaranth, ok
[03:39] <EdLin> sorryd, I think /etc/init.d/gdm restart

[03:39] <Amaranth> __mikem: he saw that other guy do it
[03:39] <bk> eth0: i know my internal ip, but what if i was offsite.  do i use adsl-68-249-1-145.dsl.milwwi.ameritech.net?
[03:39] <Xenguy> william: make sure gnome-terminal is installed
[03:39] <__mikem> and he decided to give it a try?

[03:40] <SoulPropagation> sorryd: Are you sudoing?
[03:40] <Amaranth> __mikem: curiousity killed the cat
[03:40] <Amaranth> chuckyp: will do
[03:40] <smo> __mikem: a surprisingly 'geek' premise.  we're pretty much here because someone saw AT&T 'do it' and gave it a try.   there's a fine line between curious and mischief
[03:40] <whiter> do you have mplayer or xmms installed?
[03:40] <__mikem> lol yup
[03:40] <sorryd> oh.. no
[03:41] <sorryd> I'll try again

[03:41] <sorryd> I think that worked
[03:42] <sorryd> not bit and 24 bitthat I can tell the difference between 16
[03:42] <bk> intelikey, would my ip address be under the value for eth1?  this is a common number.
[03:42] <sig> jadaz87: it's been around for a while
[03:42] <Yuki|lunch> SoulPropagation, curiosity wrote outside of cat's allocated space and the kernel give it a SIGSEGV.
[03:42] <thoreauputic> jadaz87: xpde is a horror and an excrescence upon the face of the earth ;-)
[03:42] <sorryd> doh.

[03:42] <thoreauputic> jadaz87: well, it tries to look like wWin Xp , right?  ;-)
[03:43] <sorryd> how whiter ?
[03:43] <rcsolutions> Package sox is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[03:43] <rcsolutions> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[03:43] <rcsolutions> is only available from another source
[03:43] <jadaz87> thoreauputic hahahahaha yeah
[03:43] <thoreauputic> rcsolutions: you need to enable universe

[03:43] <whiter> sorrrd you want them p3 to play in the terminal?
[03:43] <intelikey> probably have to use the router's ip from the web    but you are out of my league there.   ask someone else.  i was just telling how to find your ip/s

[03:43] <EdLin> I'd rather run a theme that does it, like what the Java Desktop GNOME theme does, than a window manager that can do nothing else.
[03:44] <bk> intelikey, i can see if i was one one computer and trying to log on to the other computer, then i would use the internal ip address.  but what if i'm off my network, don't i use<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:44] <SoulPropagation> My Alt+Tab and Ctrl+Alt+Direction keys aren't working; I have a standard 104-key setup (ergonom but that shouldn't matter)
[03:44] <thoreauputic> !tell rcsolutions about repos

[03:46] <Gwynn> Mick_Garvey: wouldn't it be interesting to get the *linux* cummunity interested in the (future) power of gaming and stimulate them to get a foor between the door by porting one exemplary game to linux? game
[03:46] <intelikey> bk if i had a router to play with i'd learn all that stuff, but i don't and dialup or satelite is all that is avalable here,  so i'm on dialup.....
[03:46] <Gwynn> foot* even
[03:46] <t4ketvv0> I'm attempting to set up a godwars delux mud, but when i run the startupfile i try to connect to the ip/port over the internet
[03:47] <SoulPropagation> My Alt+Tab and Ctrl+Alt+Direction keys aren't working; I have a standard 104-key setup (ergonom but that shouldn't matter) ... can someone please help or at least acknowledge me?
[03:47] <Toma-> Gwynn: like all of ID's games?
[03:47] <intelikey> ack
[03:47] <thoreauputic> !tell t4ketvv0 about ask
[03:47] <TheMinion> is there some way i can make ctrl-insert copy and shift-insert paste?
[03:47] <Gwynn> I mean, I heard this wine anwers 5 years ago, and linux is getting professional as hell, but as long as dad has to buy a M$ pc anyway for the kids games, well, he can run his office on it as well
[03:47] <Toma-> good call Amaranth ;)
[03:47] <benplaut> agreed :)
[03:48] <intelikey> SoulPropagation desktop ?
[03:48] <__mikem> Amaranth Id say you have had quite a night
[03:48] <Amaranth> aye
[03:48] <phantasmoholic> Anyone use ScITE source code editor? When I try to open a file in ScITE from Nautilus, it only shows an empty file, anyone have comments or help about this problem
[03:48] <SoulPropagation> intelikey: Mhm.
[03:48] <Amaranth> and this was supposed to be my "fix alacarte bugs" night
[03:48] <rcsolutions> whiter I just need to access it from the terminal because it needs root permissions. Of course it won't PLAY on the terminal...
[03:49] <intelikey> mhm ?   hmmm  beets me.
[03:49] <Eroick> should i get mysql 4.0 or 4.1?
[03:49] <Amaranth> so if you find a bug in alacarte, blame the script kiddies ;)
[03:49] <__mikem> it instead became DCC SEND cleanup night
[03:49] <whiter> it could..
[03:49] <whiter> anyay
[03:49] <Gwynn> Toma- : I wouldnt start with 'all' of anything (Im freewheeling here), chewing on some thoughts
[03:49] <Amaranth> seems to have quited down now
[03:49] <Amaranth> right when backup arrives :P
[03:49] <__mikem> YUp
[03:49] <Toma-> Gwynn: no, all of ID's games have a linux client. they know where the future is :)
[03:49] <intelikey> rcsolutions gksudo ?
[03:49] <Amaranth> err, quieted
[03:50] <Eroick> 4.0 or 4.1? what one is recomended?
[03:50] <Amaranth> Eroick: .0 releases are often buggy
[03:50] <YukiCuss> Eroick, depends on your needs. try .1
[03:50] <Amaranth> Eroick: if you're making something new go with .1
[03:50] <neo911> hey i got blocked tcp connection from <IP_ADDRESS> was that someone hacking into my computer? than\ks
[03:50] <Amaranth> Eroick: if the stuff you're using doesn't work with 4.1 you should use 4.0 (and vice versa)
[03:51] <neo911> anyone know how to start the radio station in ymessenger? the linux ver doesnt seem to have
[03:51] <Gwynn> fyi: a) I ran an OSS information centre with loads of pc an public inet acces / demo / workshjops whatnot and b) do pc gaming for over a decade, which was on the other floor, the combination would, excuse my french, seriously kick butt
[03:51] <Amaranth> neo911: did it happen right when you joined IRC?
[03:51] <rcsolutions> sox: Can't open output file '/dev/dsp': Device or resource busy
[03:51] <intelikey> neo911 it was a blocked attempt to connect.
[03:51] <__mikem> I got banned from Debian-Bots and I aint been there in hours and I left on my own (that is to say I was not booted)
[03:51] <__mikem> whats up with that
[03:51] <Amaranth> rcsolutions: killall esd
[03:51] <neo911> Amaranth, i thnk so, is that relevant?
[03:51] <dli__> is menumaker.sf.net in ubuntu?
[03:51] <Gwynn> Toma- : good, I dont pretend I know everything and that I didnt know for sure :)
[03:51] <Amaranth> __mikem: maybe you got caught up in a regexp ban
[03:51] <Luggy> Hi, can anyone point me to a howto for going from breezy to dapper?
[03:51] <Toma-> neo911: if youre really concern, email thier isp with the time and IP. email adress is<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:51] <neo911> intelikey, yes but why would someone try to connect im not a public server?
[03:51] <rcsolutions> Aaaaahh yeahhh..!!! thanks people!
[03:51] <Amaranth> neo911: yeah, freenode scans for open proxies when you join
[03:51] <__mikem> I don't know what that is
[03:52] <Amaranth> __mikem: They were banning someone else but the ban was wide enough to catch you too
[03:52] <__mikem> Oh
[03:52] <neo911> Amaranth, ic
[03:52] <Amaranth> neo911: nothing to worry about
[03:52] <intelikey> if it only happens when you connect to freenode neo911 ignore it.
[03:52] <Toma-> __mikem: try asking all these little questions in #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[03:52] <Amaranth> neo911: if you had one running you wouldn't have been able to connect :)
[03:53] <neo911> Toma-,  yea its a telecom company or something
[03:53] <YukiCuss> neo911, it happens quite a lot, just randomly. secondly, it might be a freenode thing./
[03:53] <neo911> intelikey, ok
[03:53] <intelikey> it it continues to happen,  trace it.   :)
[03:53] <phantasmoholic> Anyone use ScITE source code editor? When I try to open a file in ScITE from Nautilus, it only shows an empty file, anyone have comments or help about this problem
[03:53] <ormandj_> is there something equivalent to ZFS in linux nowadays? I need something like "snapshots" in ZFS :/
[03:53] <__mikem> O well, my IP address is going to change in a few days (its dhcp) so that should clear it up
[03:53] <MrBIOS> anyone??? 3D-only flicker on my notebook?
[03:53] <Amaranth> ormandj_: i don't think so
[03:53] <neo911> ok, maybe im just paranoid...
[03:53] <Amaranth> ormandj_: zfs is quite new
[03:53] <__mikem> neo911 after all thats happened here, Id be to
[03:54] <neo911> but just cuz im paranoid doesnt mean im not being scanned he he
[03:54] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: Sorry, I don't know.
[03:54] <Gwynn> neo911: the question is if you are paranoid enough
[03:54] <YukiCuss> neo911,  ;)
[03:54] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: is it only fullscreen 3d or does it happen when you run glxgears too?
[03:54] <MrBIOS> it makes 3D useless.
[03:54] <Eroick> has anyone else recieved a buggy shipit CD?
[03:54] <juztin> it's not paranoia if you've never been caught :D
[03:54] <ormandj_> Amaranth: yes, i know it's new :) but snapshots are an older idea :)
[03:54] <MrBIOS> Amaranth, only fullscreen it would seem
[03:54] <neo911> wait time for lunch... im really enjoying this ubuntu
[03:54] <Toma-> Eroick: nope
[03:54] <Amaranth> Eroick: One of the 5 breezy CDs i got was messed up
[03:54] <__mikem> Eroick nope, My pressed cd works fine
[03:54] <swb999> hi, i was wondering if anyone knows the username or email address of the webmaster for ubuntu.com?
[03:54] <bobyfixer> is fedora 5 released ?
[03:54] <__mikem> all five of them
[03:54] <MrBIOS> Amaranth, is it possible to run glxgears fullscreen to verify?
[03:54] <bobyfixer> or not ?
[03:54] <babo> Hi guys, I need help ... I'm getting a "firefox can't open this extension because the protocol isn't registered with any application" error when I hit on a skype call-to link ?  ... yes I do have skype installed.
[03:55] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: try changing the resolution of the game?
[03:55] <__mikem> fedora is lame as I said before
[03:55] <Toma-> bobyfixer: no. also, wrong channel.
[03:55] <Gwynn> neo911: watch out with eating m8, its addictive, I know people who have to eat every single day
[03:55] <Eroick> Amaranth: one of mine was screwed too. It was missing tar.
[03:55] <NickGarvey> aww look at the mouse
[03:55] <MrBIOS> Amaranth, its a screensaver
[03:55] <__mikem> !fedora
[03:55] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, __mikem
[03:55] <Toma-> fc5 is still on test 4, iirc.
[03:55] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: oh
[03:55] <protocol1> !java
[03:55] <bobyfixer> http://betraktelse.org/ fedora 5 dvd
[03:55] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[03:55] <ormandj_> i've got a user who wants to backup approximately 2 terabytes of data initially, and wants daily backups done from that point on, and wants hourly backups kept for a day, daily backups for a week, weekly backups for a month, and monthly backups for a year. you could see how that might be a slight storage problem without something like snapshots :) unfortunately solaris doesn't work worth a shit on any of my hardware, and i've given up on that
[03:55] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: Try another fullscreen 3d app
[03:55] <Eroick> Amaranth: install got to the part where it puts tar on (base install) and then debootstrap failed.
[03:55] <bobyfixer> osnews says its out
[03:55] <Toma-> bobyfixer: /join #fedora and /part #ubuntu
[03:55] <MrBIOS> Amaranth, hm, does gnome use its own screensavers?
[03:55] <ormandj_> so i was thinking about giving ubuntu a go, but i need something to handle this issue :P
[03:56] <MrBIOS> xscreensaver screensavers seem to work fine
[03:56] <__mikem> !redhat
[03:56] <ubotu> __mikem: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:56] <rofl-waffle> How do I forward a port on my router?
[03:56] <babo> Anyone have any ideas ?
[03:56] <Toma-> bobyfixer: did you see the first sentence on that page?
[03:56] <tonyyarusso> ormandj_: Try starting with 'apt-cache search backup' with full repos.
[03:56] <__mikem> darn, ubotu needs some updating
[03:56] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: It uses xscreensaver in 5.10
[03:56] <chuckyp> ormandj_, what about just using cron and shell scripts
[03:56] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: the next release will use gnome-screensaver
[03:56] <NickGarvey> rofl-waffle: different for everyone, PM me and I'll walk you through
[03:56] <DarthShrine> rofl-waffle, www.portforward.com
[03:56] <babo> How do I link an application to a protocol in ubuntu ... ?
[03:56] <intelikey> well if i had data on my computer that i really didn't want people getting,  i'd be very cautous about things like that neo911,  and irc in general.  but as for this box, there is nothing on it that i would care if it were posted on google... hehhe so i don't worry much.
[03:56] <YukiCuss> rofl-waffle, that might possibly be the most awesome nickname ever.
[03:56] <eirejah> ok so my Gnome is officially borked .. i have reinstalled it and reboooted and it still wont load .. so in addition to the startup error telling me that i restarted my session too quick(which i dont even understand) its now telling me "your $HOME/.dmrc file is the incorrect permission .. its being ignored..its prevents default sessions and language being stored .. file should be owned by user and chmod 644 ... can anyone please help me? i did chmod 644 .d
[03:56] <MrBIOS> Amaranth, thats the problem then
[03:57] <MrBIOS> gnomescreensaver is fucked on my machine
[03:57] <NickGarvey> DarthShrine: that is a really good site, thank you
[03:57] <chuckyp> YukiCuss, nah roflcopter is the best one i've seen.
[03:57] <ormandj_> chuckyp: you don't understand. i'm saying, i can't keep 7 full 2 terabyte backups per week, 4 2 terabyte backups per month and 12 2 terabyte backups per year. that's 50 terabytes of storage roughly
[03:57] <YukiCuss> chuckyp, bah! That pales in comparison.
[03:57] <__mikem> !tell MrBIOS about language
[03:57] <DarthShrine> NickGarvey, No probs :)
[03:57] <NickGarvey> eirejah: yes that happens to me
[03:57] <NickGarvey> eirejah: make sure you own your home folder
[03:57] <NickGarvey> eirejah: and theres one other thing too.. what is it..
[03:57] <Amaranth> eirejah: sudo rm ~/.ICEauthority ~/.dmrc
[03:57] <dli__> eirejah, console login (Ctl Alt F1), rm .dmrc
[03:57] <chuckyp> ormandj_, I was talking about compressing the data.  But I dunno what a snapshot is so.
[03:58] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: You're using dapper?
[03:58] <MrBIOS> okay, 100% verified...
[03:58] <MrBIOS> Amaranth, yes
[03:58] <Amaranth> MrBIOS: Please join #ubuntu+1
[03:58] <MrBIOS> Amaranth, problem happens with gnonme-screensaver
[03:58] <NickGarvey> Amaranth: what happens if we delete those?
[03:58] <chuckyp> MrBIOS, well gnome-screensaver shouldn't be used.
[03:58] <ormandj_> chuckyp: if you snapshot a  FS at various points in time, it just stores the changes since the last snapshot, so you can roll back to previous days/weeks/months/years/etc, instead of storing an entire duplicate of the dataset
[03:58] <eirejah> ok ima try this now
[03:58] <intelikey> eirejah  do this.  "sudo chown eirejah:eirejah /home/eirejah -R "   and try again.
[03:58] <chuckyp> MrBIOS, you should be using the xscreensaver right below it.
[03:58] <Amaranth> NickGarvey: Nothing permanent.
[03:59] <chuckyp> ormandj_, ahh gotcha.
[03:59] <__mikem> brb have to pop my contact lenses
[03:59] <intelikey> eirejah if that is your login name  of course.
[03:59] <NickGarvey> Amaranth: sounds good to me, thats really annoying that message
[03:59] <eirejah> yeh i changed it
[03:59] <cyphase> what's a good avi/mpeg to theora converter?
[03:59] <ormandj_> chuckyp: that way 2 terabytes of data could have historical backups for an entire year as i described, but only take 3 terabytes, not 50 :)
[03:59] <eirejah> :)
[03:59] <eirejah> ok thanks people
[03:59] <eirejah> is that it?
[03:59] <whiter> how can i enter a command into the terminal that requires spaces without spaces?
[03:59] <eirejah> cause im about to part
[03:59] <eirejah> brb
[03:59] <NickGarvey> woo almost
[03:59] <chuckyp> ormandj_, no i got you something like rsnapshot etc...  those type of apps.
[03:59] <NickGarvey> did your command logged in as root
[03:59] <intelikey> eirejah if not you'll be back
[04:00] <DarthShrine> whiter, Blah\ Blah
[04:00] <whiter> but that still has a space
[04:00] <whiter> ..
[04:00] <ormandj_> chuckyp: well, it's filesystem layer in this picture. not rsyncish, that's just how you back it up :P
[04:00] <Toma-> whiter: 'ls /home/spaces/are\ cool\ when\ you\ do\ this/
[04:00] <DarthShrine> Yeah, but the \ means it's still the one thing
[04:00] <whiter> no
[04:00] <whiter> i said without spaces
[04:00] <whiter> at all
[04:00] <whiter> is there a way to escape the ascii of a space?
[04:01] <Toma-> whiter: oic
[04:01] <chuckyp> ormandj_, I was just reading here http://www.rsnapshot.org/ to learn about it.  It also does local.  Never heard of this before but now I know.
[04:01] <intelikey> ls "/home/spaces/are cool when you do this/"
[04:01] <intelikey> :)
[04:01] <NickGarvey> time to play with some freebsd
[04:01] <whiter> ^ still has spaces
[04:02] <DarthShrine> Why can't you have spaces?
[04:02] <ormandj_> chuckyp: only needed to read one line to discount it: "rsnapshot is written entirely in Perl." :P
[04:02] <rcsolutions> !tell rcsolutions chown
[04:02] <intelikey> whiter what are you trying to do ?
[04:02] <Dr_Willis> DarthShrine,  :P  im too scared to ask that. lol
[04:02] <tritium> rcsolutions: read the man page
[04:02] <eirejah> ok so my Gnome works again THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH  buuuut im still getting that error message about my .dmrc file 644 etc
[04:03] <eirejah> and i did all of the previous commands correctly
[04:03] <Amaranth> DarthShrine: In the terminal you have to escape spaces (ls /home/amaranth/dir\ with\ spaces/) or use quotes (ls "/home/amaranth/dir with spaces/")
[04:03] <ArchAngelNix> Does anyone know where I can find a NIC compatibility list?
[04:03] <DarthShrine> Amaranth, Yeah, I know....I was asking whiter ...We suggested those two methods
[04:03] <whiter> nevermind
[04:03] <whiter> forget it
[04:03] <DarthShrine> Maybe I should highlight more :)
[04:03] <intelikey> eirejah   chmod 644 .dmrc   should make that go away.
[04:03] <Frogzoo> !tell ArchAngelNix about hardware
[04:04] <TheMinion> will i ever need to defrag on linux?
[04:04] <eirejah> intelikey: i done that already though
[04:04] <eirejah> earlier
[04:04] <Frogzoo> TheMinion: no
[04:04] <Amaranth> TheMinion: nope
[04:04] <thoreauputic> TheMinion: no
[04:04] <TheMinion> ok, thanks
[04:04] <thoreauputic> heh
[04:04] <eirejah> TheMinion: that would be a no.
[04:04] <Amaranth> TheMinion: the filesystem is self-optimizing
[04:04] <TheMinion> that's another point for linux
[04:04] <NickGarvey> owned!
[04:04] <intelikey> whiter if i knew what you were messing with and trying to do  i might be able to answer,,,,, if i saw your question i might be avle....
[04:04] <eirejah> intelikey: is there only one .dmrc file ?
[04:04] <ArchAngelNix> I just picked up a Dell P3, 866MHz, no NIC. I have a spare StarTech NIC sitting around. Wondering if that will work.
[04:04] <NickGarvey> :_p
[04:04] <TheMinion> and windows is quickly falling behind...
[04:04] <DarthShrine> TheMinion, Just one?
[04:04] <intelikey> eirejah yup
[04:05] <phiber_optic> does anybody know how to upgrade to dapper?
[04:05] <Amaranth> ArchAngelNix: try it with a live cd
[04:05] <eirejah> hmmm
[04:05] <Amaranth> !dapper
[04:05] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake. Currently this is BETA software - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[04:05] <Mep30044> sup yall
[04:05] <intelikey> one per $HOME  that is eirejah
[04:05] <eirejah> intelikey: in my users home directory yeh?
[04:05] <Carbine> Hello.
[04:05] <eirejah> is there a home in root? maybe its that one i need to do
[04:05] <WoC> any suggestions on which package to re-install if the Sinature verify fails on all packages?
[04:05] <eirejah> because i have already done the users one
[04:05] <DarthShrine> How is Ubuntu able to ship free CDs?
[04:05] <intelikey> eirejah  /root  is root's home
[04:05] <WoC> Signature, even
[04:06] <Amaranth> !gpgerr
[04:06] <Mep30044> is there anyway to fix the issue with the network control center on the GNOME version of Ubuntu
[04:06] <ubotu> I heard gpgerr is a GPG-related error that sometimes occur when accessing the Ubuntu archives; it can usually be solved by typing "sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*Release*" (without the quotes!) in a terminal
[04:06] <eirejah> intelikey: yeh i knew that ;/
[04:06] <eirejah> im just clutching at straws here
[04:06] <Carbine> Can someone help me with partitioning?
[04:06] <thoreauputic> Darth_Greig: because Mark Shuttleworth has a lot of money ?
[04:06] <eirejah> because i have done what i was told to do by my system and by others
[04:06] <DarthShrine> thoreauputic, Hehe
[04:06] <Mep30044> Carbine? what kind and for what
[04:06] <intelikey> eirejah   ls -l .dmrc
[04:06] <Dr_Willis> Mep30044,  what 'issue'
[04:06] <ArchAngelNix> Amaranth I am installing Kubuntu on the Dell right now, just wondering if that NIC doesn't work, where I can find one that can.
[04:06] <intelikey> what it says ?
[04:07] <eirejah> lol oh gosh
[04:07] <Mep30044> the wep key problem.. i was not abble to connect to my Access Piont at all.. then i installed WiFi-radar and it worked fine..
[04:07] <eirejah> well now its not even there anymore
[04:07] <eirejah> lol
[04:07] <paulproteus|lapt> ArchAngelNix: Why would the NIC not work?
[04:07] <Mep30044> should it be eth0 because on mine it is aot1?
[04:07] <matthew> Does anyone have time to help a very new Ubuntu user get WAP working for a wireless connection?
[04:07] <Amaranth> ArchAngelNix: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCards
[04:07] <intelikey> can't change perms on /dev/null/*   hehhe
[04:07] <thoreauputic> eirejah:   " touch ~/.dmrc "
[04:08] <Carbine> I'm trying to install Ubuntu dual booted with my XP Pro installation, and I'm having some partitioning problems.
[04:08] <eirejah> ok i leave off the ~/  if im already in my home directory yeh?
[04:08] <Amaranth> Carbine: We need more details.
[04:08] <thoreauputic> eirejah: yes
[04:08] <Amaranth> eirejah: it doesn't hurt to have it
[04:08] <ArchAngelNix> paulproteus: I have heard that some NICs don't behave well under Linux.
[04:08] <Mep30044> Dr.Willis and ideas?
[04:08] <intelikey> better yet    echo "<your dm of choice>" > .dmrc
[04:08] <mikeazorin> VERSION 6.04 "DAPPER"
[04:08] <__mikem> ubuntu-offtopic
[04:09] <eirejah> ok so now its     -rw-r--r--  1 jahshua jahshua 0 2006-03-20 03:08 .dmrc
[04:09] <eirejah> so ill do the chmod now yeh
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> Mep30044,  i dont touch wireless any more. :P  i ran wires all through my house's ductwork.
[04:09] <Mep30044> and another issue.. after i install lux and reboot it loads hella slow.. is that a good sign my proccessor can't handle it?
[04:09] <Amaranth> eirejah: that should be perfect
[04:09] <thoreauputic> eirejah: that's 644
[04:09] <__mikem> sorry forgot the /join on account of my mom is annoying me
[04:09] <eirejah> sweet
[04:09] <eirejah> thanks again
[04:09] <Nick_Garvey> I still get the error because the IDE file is still there.. how do I get rid of it?
[04:09] <intelikey> eirejah     echo "fvwm" > .dmrc       for example.
[04:09] <ArchAngelNix> Amaranth: Thanks for the link.
[04:09] <Amaranth> ArchAngelNix: no problem
[04:09] <Amaranth> ArchAngelNix: it's quite a list
[04:09] <Nick_Garvey> oh wait are you guys answering my question now?
[04:09] <Mep30044> cat6 owns.. but wifi is a must because i am routers
[04:09] <Carbine> Well, I try using the "Use existing free space" option when installing Ubuntu, but it won't let me do so. Says it's to small, but there's 60GB + free.
[04:10] <Amaranth> Nick_Garvey: What's the problem?
[04:10] <Mep30044> hate*
[04:10] <Nick_Garvey> Ih ave the same problem as eirejah
[04:10] <Nick_Garvey> with that message
[04:10] <Nils_> I've got Warty installed on a Vaio laptop. I can't get it to connect to the internet. Plugging in an ethernet cable does nothing, and I can't get the wireless to work. Both devices are recognized. Anybody know where to find a troubleshooting guide, or what to try next?
[04:10] <Nick_Garvey> but I left the room because I am playing with freebsd
[04:10] <Amaranth> Nick_Garvey: sudo rm ~/.ICEauthority
[04:10] <Amaranth> Nick_Garvey: the sudo part is important
[04:10] <eirejah> hmmm
[04:10] <eirejah> so
[04:10] <Amaranth> Nils_: sudo dhclient eth0
[04:11] <thoreauputic> eirejah: if you log out / in it should regenerate
[04:11] <Nick_Garvey> lets try one more time
[04:11] <Amaranth> Nils_: but warty is really old (and about to become upsupported)
[04:11] <eirejah> i just did sudo chmod 644 .dmrc and now its -rw-r--r--  1 jahshua jahshua 0 2006-03-20 03:08 .dmrc
[04:11] <eirejah> thats no change eh ?
[04:11] <thoreauputic> intelikey: Impostor! *grin*
[04:11] <Amaranth> eirejah: nope
[04:11] <Carbine> All I wanna do is just cut the current partition I have in half, use half for XP and half for Ubuntu, but I can't use XP's disk management because it's my primary partition that XP is installed on.
[04:11] <eirejah> so what am i missing here
[04:11] <eirejah> im doing something wrong..
[04:11] <eirejah> :/
[04:11] <Amaranth> Carbine: the partitioner should offer to resize the windows partition for you
[04:11] <intelikey> thoreauputic no 'scripter'   it calls dpkg and apt-cache   :)
[04:11] <rofl-waffle> Can someone try to telnet to port 777 on my ip?
[04:12] <Amaranth> eirejah: it still doesn't work?
[04:12] <eirejah> i just did sudo chmod 644 .dmrc and now its -rw-r--r--  1 jahshua jahshua 0 2006-03-20 03:08 .dmrc
[04:12] <Carbine> I've tried every option besides erase the entire disk and nothing has worked.
[04:12] <thoreauputic> -rw-------  1 peter peter 26 2006-02-22 18:54 /home/peter/.dmrc
[04:12] <thoreauputic> looks like it's 600 here
[04:12] <eirejah> so what is -rw-r--r--
[04:12] <intelikey> thoreauputic i'm just so used to the urpm commands that i like the short way to do things like that  :)
[04:12] <Nick_Garvey> nope still there
[04:12] <Amaranth> rofl-waffle: doesn't seem to be working
[04:13] <thoreauputic> eirejah: 644
[04:13] <Amaranth> Nick_Garvey: What is the exact error message?
[04:13] <tonyyarusso> Carbine: Haven't been following; you trying to resize from Ubuntu install disk or from a current installation?
[04:13] <eirejah> nice   :D
[04:13] <eirejah> ok brb!
[04:13] <thoreauputic> eirejah: what are the perms on your /home dir ?  ls -ld /home
[04:13] <rofl-waffle> Can someone try to telnet to port 777 on my ip?
[04:14] <Carbine> Can't do it from XP, and while installing Ubuntu, I've tried resizing the XP partition, but it said something about it being too small.  That did it, Amaranth.
[04:15] <Amaranth> Nils_: cool
[04:15] <Mischevious> hm
[04:15] <Carbine> I will try a defrag, thanks. =)
[04:15] <Amaranth> Nils_: now to make it do it for good
[04:15] <rofl-waffle> I think the ipmasq package is getting in the way of what I want to do
[04:15] <Amaranth> Nils_: as long as you have ethernet plugged in when you turn on the computer, at least
[04:15] <eirejah> maaaaaan come on!!!
[04:15] <Toma-> rofl-waffle: using firestarter?
[04:16] <eirejah> same error again  :((
[04:16] <babo_> Guys, I really need help here ... how do I associate skype with the callto: protocol ???
[04:16] <Nick_Garvey> !patience
[04:16] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Please be aware there are a lot of questions, but only maybe few who might know the answer for you. Please be patient. Your attitude may determine their willingness to help you.
[04:16] <Amaranth> Nils_: open a terminal and run sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[04:16] <thoreauputic> eirejah: what does   ls -ld /home    sy  ?
[04:16] <thoreauputic> *say
[04:16] <rofl-waffle> No, I'm just using plain old iptables, trying to get 1 port forwarded to test it out
[04:16] <Gwynn> !Amyned
[04:16] <ubotu> Gwynn: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:16] <Frogzoo> how to check what tune2fs -m /dev/xxx is currently set to?
[04:16] <intelikey> eirejah    it's binarry    ###  wrx    111=7   thus octal display of  three digits.      564  would be 101 110 100   = r-x rw- w--     so you will know how the code works  :)
[04:16] <eirejah> thoreauputic: drwxr-xr-x  3 root root 4096 2006-03-18 16:50 /home
[04:17] <TheMinion> how come beep-media-player randomly stops playing?
[04:17] <thoreauputic> eirejah: looks OK
[04:17] <Gwynn> ubotu: amyned = welsh for patience. Remember that
[04:17] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Gwynn
[04:17] <rofl-waffle> when ipmasq starts up it adds a bunch of rules to my firewall that I don't have/need on my gentoo firewall, there all I had to do was set ip_forward to 1
[04:17] <eirejah> intelikey: thank you !  :)
[04:17] <intelikey> r-x rw- r--    hehhe ooops  ^
[04:17] <Amaranth> rofl-waffle: you're using the ubuntu box as a router?
[04:17] <rofl-waffle> yeah
[04:18] <Amaranth> oh
[04:18] <Amaranth> i didn't think ipmasq worked anymore
[04:18] <eirejah> thoreauputic: so you would recommend to just ignore that error?
[04:18] <thoreauputic> eirejah:  ls -ld /home/jahshua   ?
[04:18] <Nick_Garvey> your $HOME/.dmrc file has incorrect permissions and is being
[04:18] <Nick_Garvey>  ignored
[04:18] <babo_> sorry, I got cut off
[04:18] <eirejah> drwxrwxr-x  44 jahshua jahshua 4096 2006-03-20 03:14 /home/jahshua
[04:18] <Amaranth> that looks fine
[04:18] <rofl-waffle> Well it's getting me online right now, I've never used it before, but like I said, the normal way doesn't work
[04:18] <intelikey> 775
[04:19] <rofl-waffle> The way I did it was the way I read in a guide
[04:19] <thoreauputic> eirejah:  sudo chmod 755 /home/jahshua
[04:19] <thoreauputic> eirejah: that looks wrong - should be 755
[04:19] <intelikey> or 700  even
[04:19] <eirejah> heh
[04:19] <eirejah> which one :p
[04:19] <eirejah> i just did sudo chmod 755 /home/jahshua
[04:20] <thoreauputic> eirejah: 755 id fine
[04:20] <thoreauputic> *is
[04:20] <Nick_Garvey> 755 is annoying though
[04:20] <Nick_Garvey> then I need to sudo to do anything in my own folder
[04:20] <thoreauputic> Nick_Garvey: why?
[04:20] <eirejah> so now its drwxr-xr-x  44 jahshua jahshua 4096 2006-03-20 03:14 /home/jahshua
[04:20] <intelikey> 700 = privet    755  readable to the world
[04:20] <thoreauputic> Nick_Garvey: no you don't
[04:20] <Nick_Garvey> 755 = read execute if owner right?
[04:20] <eirejah> intelikey: so shouldnt i make it 700 then? im a bit of a security paranoid person  :>
[04:21] <thoreauputic> Nick_Garvey:  no the second one is group
[04:21] <Nick_Garvey> ...
[04:21] <DBO> will remove world read mess up any programs?
[04:21] <intelikey> eirejah that's why i mentioned it.
[04:21] <thoreauputic> Nick_Garvey: user;group:world
[04:21] <Nick_Garvey> I have.. been doing that wrong.. this entire time
[04:21] <DBO> s/remove/removing
[04:21] <Nick_Garvey> for 6 months I have got that wrong
[04:21] <protocol1> !mplayer
[04:21] <ubotu> methinks mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[04:21] <Nick_Garvey> wow I feel special
[04:21] <eirejah> intelikey: is there any aggravations it might cause me or anything .. like i wont have to sudo to listen to mp3 or anything right?
[04:21] <Nick_Garvey> I have some permissions to change
[04:21] <thoreauputic> ;-)
[04:22] <rcsolutions> How do I give me read permission to a file/partition? ch-what?
[04:22] <Nick_Garvey> chmod +r file
[04:22] <thoreauputic> DBO: weighs less ;-)
[04:22] <Toma-> i prefer just using the u+rwx and so on tags
[04:22] <fluxt> Nick_Garvey: new install?
[04:22] <Toma-> makes more sense
[04:22] <DBO> hurts less when you drop it on my head
[04:22] <Nick_Garvey> linux for dummies = bad
[04:22] <majd> Hey, can i get some help trying to get azureus not give me a NAT error when i'm first loading it up? i had this problem a while back and i got it fixed (can't remember how) and my router settings haven't changed since. I have ports 6881 -> 7000 enabled...6881 and 7000 returned a NAT error
[04:22] <jodanlime> hey guys, whats a good music player that kinda looks and feels like iTunes, I like iTunes alot
[04:22] <Nils_> OK, Amaranth, I'm updating now. Now question two: how do I upgrade to something a bit newer over the intarwebs?
[04:22] <Nick_Garvey> !itunes
[04:22] <intelikey> eirejah no.  you will still have full access   7=rwx   but group  and world will have no access to your home.
[04:22] <ubotu> itunes is, like, totally, a Mac OS/Windows app, but you can use SharpMusique in Linux instead (sudo apt-get install sharpmusique), and it works for all of the same things with the iTunes music store, libraries, etc.
[04:23] <Toma-> jodanlime: some say banshee is good.
[04:23] <thoreauputic> jodanlime: amarok probably
[04:23] <agdr> jodanlime - i like banshee
[04:23] <eirejah> intelikey: ok cool thanks
[04:23] <agdr> if you can find the most recent vesrion, which isn't debianized yet..
[04:23] <intelikey> eirejah it is a default setting for some systems
[04:23] <eirejah> which systems?
[04:24] <eirejah> im a bit more used to bsd .. im still an utter noob though(as you can all see)
[04:24] <jodanlime> I've tried amarok, its ok but I'd rather find something different, banshee I used for about 2 days, and I need to evaluate it longer, any others?
[04:24] <thoreauputic> eirejah: it's a policy thing - differs from distro to distro
[04:24] <rcsolutions> I've used chmod +r /media/sda2 but I still can't read this partition outside the terminal
[04:24] <DBO> banshee has some problems with ID3 tags from time to time
[04:24] <jodanlime> hmm
[04:24] <Mischevious> jodanlime, bmp is good, but not like itunes
[04:25] <jodanlime> Mischevious, yeah, I'm using bmp right now
[04:25] <Mischevious> jodanlime, what i mean is, it is better then itunes, but not as big and stupid as itunes
[04:25] <agdr> g'ni
[04:25] <eirejah> so this is my new one  drwx------  44 jahshua jahshua 4096 2006-03-20 03:14 /home/jahshua
[04:25] <eirejah> is that ok
[04:25] <Nick_Garvey> eirejah, perfect
[04:25] <thoreauputic> eirejah: 700 is theoretically more private :)
[04:25] <Blippe> could anyone give me a greater than sign, faulty keyboard!
[04:25] <jodanlime> Mischevious, yeah, but I dont mind it being big, I really like the way it organizes the songs for me
[04:25] <thoreauputic> >
[04:25] <Nick_Garvey> > <
[04:25] <Blippe> thanks
[04:25] <eirejah> ok and what about /root  this seems to have more permissions than my home  drwxr-xr-x  11 root root 4096 2006-03-19 23:52 /root
[04:25] <Mischevious> jodanlime, eh
[04:25] <DBO> thoreauputic, will setting your home directory as 700 mess up any programs that might access hidden files in there?
[04:26] <jodanlime> Mischevious, is there something you know about that does that good of a job
[04:26] <jodanlime> ?
[04:26] <thoreauputic> DBO: hmm - I doubt it - but I just use the default umask do I have 755
[04:26] <thoreauputic> *so
[04:26] <DBO> I just made another private directory in my home folder
[04:26] <DBO> and set it as 700
[04:27] <DBO> that should work yes?
[04:27] <Nick_Garvey> adios
[04:27] <thoreauputic> DBO: right - so only your user can access it
[04:27] <evilolive> so I'm a new ubantu user and I wanna know how to get gnome gui to install/run
[04:27] <thoreauputic> DBO: and root, of course
[04:27] <evilolive> can help?
[04:27] <YukiCuss> evilolive, just install it.
[04:27] <Mischevious> jodanlime, hmm, i don't organize stuff so, nope
[04:27] <YukiCuss> Ubuntu, that is.
[04:27] <VoX> hi, why would a completely empty ext3 drive show that 129mb is in use?
[04:27] <Nickgarvey> !gnome
[04:27] <tritium> evilolive: install ubuntu, and log in
[04:27] <YukiCuss> VoX, journal?
[04:27] <jodanlime> Mischevious, lol, ok, thanks
[04:27] <Illicit> I need some help.
[04:27] <evilolive> login leads me to commandline
[04:27] <juztin> after i install xfce, how do i make it run as my default wm?
[04:27] <thoreauputic> VoX: the file system takes some space
[04:27] <Mischevious> VoX, 129mb for the file system, EXT3
[04:27] <Nickgarvey> !Tell evilolive about gnome
[04:27] <YukiCuss> VoX, or lost+found? No idea.
[04:28] <VoX> ahh
[04:28] <intelikey> rather than expecting the user to restrict access as needed, they default to letting the user grant access as needed.    which,  some older distros/releases  mdk did it for a while. don't know if they still do.  i think sarge defaults to privet home folders,   even ubuntu if you dpkg-reconfigure adduser   it asks if you want ubuntu to default to privet or public home directories. eirejah
[04:28] <Dr_Willis> juztin,  select it in gdm and it will ask.
[04:28] <jodanlime> anybody know of a good music organizing program is more or less the question I should have asked
[04:28] <juztin> gdm?
[04:28] <juztin> Dr_Willis, gdm?
[04:28] <Mischevious> intelikey, private
[04:28] <Illicit> My audio just started speeding up and is now all high-pitched while listening to music. Any suggestions?
[04:28] <Dr_Willis> juztin,  the login screen :P
[04:28] <VoX> so it's basicly reserved space for file/directory allocation, based on the size of the hd in question?
[04:28] <evilolive> how do I run gnome from console ?
[04:28] <rcsolutions> I cant change the owner of a partition... I've used chown and chmod +r...
[04:28] <Dr_Willis> juztin,  thats normallyu gdm or kdm running that gives you the nice interface
[04:28] <Mischevious> VoX, yes
[04:28] <intelikey> Mischevious i didn't say i could spell.....
[04:28] <VoX> Mischevious: cool
[04:28] <VoX> thanks
[04:29] <juztin> ah, it's gdm
[04:29] <Mischevious> intelikey, should learn how
[04:29] <slava_> what package has all the x.org manpages for section 3?
[04:29] <thoreauputic> evilolive:  startx /usr/bin/gnome-session
[04:29] <intelikey> Mischevious no need you correct things like that for me :)
[04:29] <Illicit> My audio just started speeding up and is now all high-pitched while listening to music. Any suggestions as to return it to normal speed?
[04:29] <msg43> HI
[04:29] <DBO> hi
[04:29] <tritium> Illicit: don't repeat please
[04:29] <jodanlime> any good music organizers out there?
[04:30] <msg43> Wath type of patches does ubuntu use to have suspend support?
[04:30] <YukiCuss> jodanlime, mv. :)
[04:30] <intelikey> Mischevious look msg43 made a typo  ....  get him.
[04:30] <jodanlime> YukiCuss, mv?
[04:30] <babo_> I need skype to associate itself with the callto protocol for one click calling ... how do you do that on linux ?
[04:30] <intelikey> :)
[04:30] <eirejah> can anyone tell me the numeric representation of drwxr-xr-x  please ?
[04:30] <tritium> msg43: you don't need to patch the kernel to get suspend to work
[04:30] <Mischevious> intelikey, clam down geekazoid
[04:30] <YukiCuss> jodanlime, ie. `move'; rename. :)
[04:30] <msg43> tritium, what do you mean?
[04:30] <Mischevious> intelikey, see, i make them too
[04:30] <msg43> tritium, then what does ubuntu use
[04:30] <jodanlime> YukiCuss, lol, yeah, I meant something like how iTunes works
[04:31] <thoreauputic> babo_: it's more like a setting in about:config for firefox
[04:31] <msg43> as I don't use ubuntu and I really liked to get suspend to work
[04:31] <YukiCuss> jodanlime, consider rhythmbox
[04:31] <thoreauputic> babo_: search for protocol
[04:31] <babo_> thoreauputic: thanks
[04:31] <eirejah> intelikey: so did i
[04:31] <eirejah> lol
[04:31] <jodanlime> YukiCuss, me and rythem box dont get along
[04:31] <tritium> msg43: suspend is enabled by default on many laptops.  If yours specifically is not whitelisted, then you can enable it by editing config files of the acpi-support package
[04:31] <YukiCuss> ah.
[04:31] <TheMinion> where can i get mplayer?
[04:31] <juztin> Dr_Willis, the log in screen did show that it just came up with ubuntu, username, pass, that's it
[04:32] <YukiCuss> TheMinion, multiverse repository.
[04:32] <thoreauputic> !info mplayer-586

[04:32] <msg43> tritium, I don't have a laptop
[04:32] <eirejah> intelikey: can you tell me the numeric representation of drwxr-xr-x please?
[04:32] <Frogzoo> anyone know of a better ls that can display acls?
[04:32] <YukiCuss> !tell TheMinion about repositories
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> juztin,  you did a server install? or a normal install?
[04:32] <msg43> but my bios as suspend support
[04:32] <intelikey> yep  755
[04:32] <TheMinion> YukiCuss: thanks
[04:32] <juztin> Dr_Willis, i did apt-get install xfce4
[04:32] <YukiCuss> no probs./
[04:32] <salah> hi
[04:32] <tritium> msg43: that's fine.  You can uncomment the "#ACPI_SLEEP=true" line in /etc/default/acpi-support
[04:33] <eirejah> intelikey: thats my root .. should i make it 700 also .. i ahve made my home 700 .. would it mass things up if i made it 700
[04:33] <Mischevious> thoreauputic, eww
[04:33] <tritium> msg43: you'll need to reboot, and you may need to experiment with other settings (e.g., I have to disable video posting)
[04:33] <salah> What I can use for DVD
[04:33] <thoreauputic> Mischevious: yeah, great fun...
[04:33] <Frogzoo> salah: gxine works well
[04:33] <msg43> so I nee dto install acpi?
[04:33] <Frogzoo> msg43: no - acpi is installed by default
[04:33] <salah> How can I download it?
[04:33] <salah> salah
[04:34] <salah> s
[04:34] <msg43> Frogzoo, I'm on a different distro!!!
[04:34] <juztin> Dr_Willis, i did apt-get install xfce4
[04:34] <salah> Frogzoo,How can I download it?
[04:34] <ufo> sign the the petit to macromedia http://www.petitiononline.com/lin64swf/petition.html
[04:34] <intelikey> eirejah like i said  start at the right and break at each third letter   thus rwxr-xr-x  is rwx r-x r-x   111 101 101   or  755        and eirejah if you meen / then no  if /root/  then i set mine  000    root doesn't need permission.  it's root!
[04:34] <babo_> thoreauputic: I've searched for protocol and it throws up network-protocol handler . warn-external, .external and .expose ... all of which are booleans ???
[04:35] <rcsolutions> How do I get codecs for mp3 ? I use AMD64
[04:35] <eirejah> intelikey: yeh i was thinking more in terms of being accessible to the outside world
[04:35] <DBO> uboto: tell rcsolutions about mp3
[04:35] <Mischevious> lol
[04:35] <DBO> oops
[04:35] <DBO> spelt wrong
[04:35] <YukiCuss> DBO, you're so lame you can encode MP3s. >_>
[04:35] <juztin> can someone tell me how to make xfce the default wm after i install it?
[04:35] <Mischevious> spelled*
[04:36] <intelikey> that's what i'm saying.   000 no access to anyone.  but "root" will ignore that cause it is "root" and doesn't need permission.
[04:36] <rcsolutions> tell rcsolutions about mp3
[04:36] <mikul> how do i can i get my kernel version? what do i write to see that?
[04:36] <DBO> =(
[04:36] <tritium> rcsolutions: you can query ubotu in private, you know
[04:36] <YukiCuss> mikul, , uname -r
[04:36] <eirejah> intelikey: ok cool and thanks again for the help
[04:36] <mikul> ok
[04:37] <ephesius> are there any good wifi network managers for ubuntu
[04:37] <salah> Frogzoo,How can I download gxine?
[04:37] <zepled> hey all
[04:38] <Nickgarvey> nickgarvey
[04:38] <Nickgarvey> Nickgarvey,
[04:38] <juztin> can someone tell me how to make xfce the default wm after i install it?
[04:38] <Nickgarvey> juztin, don't think you can, it doesn't have a display manager
[04:38] <techrush> sure you can
[04:38] <Nickgarvey> or not
[04:38] <techrush> its set by default once you select it once for a session in GDM
[04:38] <techrush> or it should be.
[04:38] <Nickgarvey> oh ok sounds good to me
[04:39] <tritium> ufo: please don't solicit here
[04:39] <juztin> techrush, where do you select it for session? t here is no session option at the login
[04:39] <TheMinion> how do i move into a different drive through the terminal?
[04:39] <Mischevious> TheMinion, cd
[04:39] <slava_> A:, B:, C:
[04:39] <techrush> juztin there should be an option for session when you login
[04:39] <intelikey> eirejah one could set / to  111  if they wanted to.   all users could still access all commands but you couldn't  ls /    you would have no  read permission.    subdirs  like wise could be set. but you can over do that too.....  so  unless you are really a security freek (and if so, why the hell is that box connected to the inet?)  then the basics of /root = 000  and /home/<user> =700  should do.
[04:39] <techrush> not sure what to tell you other than maybe look again
[04:39] <majd> how do i see what my static ip is?
[04:40] <intelikey> ifconfig
[04:40] <intelikey> majd ^
[04:41] <majd> thanks
[04:41] <TheMinion> i need to move to a different mounted drive, called hda1, in the terminal. how do i do that?
[04:41] <majd>  inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>  Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS>  Mask:<IP_ADDRESS>
[04:41] <majd> is my ip the first or second one?
[04:42] <tritium> first, majd
[04:42] <tarheel> lol you just gave your internal out
[04:42] <majd> cool, thanks
[04:42] <illicit> I tried playing some music today on my box, and the music was all speeded up and distorted...all the voices were highpitched and everything, how can i fix this?
[04:42] <TheUni> majd: cd /dev/hda1 ?
[04:42] <salah> Hi,
[04:42] <majd> tarheel, is that bad? i asked before if that was bad and i was told it wasn't
[04:42] <TheUni> err.. that was to TheMinion
[04:42] <tarheel> lol
[04:42] <tritium> TheUni: where did you mount /dev/hda1?
[04:42] <TheMinion> TheUni: thanks
[04:42] <intelikey> TheMinion   cd `mount | grep hda1 | cut -d' ' -f3`
[04:42] <tarheel> dude you dont give your internal out
[04:42] <salah> What I can use for voice record.Which one is best for recording voice?
[04:43] <eirejah> hehe ok intelikey im just writing down what you typed for me above .. can you just clarify for me how does 111 101 101 turn into 755   .. actually scratch that i just need to go read up on binary huh? because i dont think i can logically deduce it
[04:43] <majd> tarheel, i don't even't know what it is :( what can a bad person do with it?
[04:43] <holycow> what power saving features are present in breezy, i'm finding batteries last a very short amount of time ...
[04:43] <tritium> majd: that IP is only good behind your router
[04:43] <TheUni> i'm trying play mp3's in amaroK (ubuntu dapper), but when i click play it just goes quickly thru the playlist. i've already installed all the mp3 decoders. any ideas?
[04:43] <tarheel> you can log into his router though
[04:43] <tritium> TheMinion: where did you mount /dev/hda1?
[04:43] <rcsolutions> I think I've installed the codecs for playing mp3 but it says now "Could not open resource for writing."
[04:43] <illicit> While upgrading to breezy badger last night. (late i know) my music is all speeded up and distrorted...any way to fix this?
[04:44] <tritium> tarheel: not without the IP address of his router
[04:44] <TheMinion> tritium: i got it now, is was cd /media/hda1
[04:44] <tritium> TheMinion: ok
[04:44] <intelikey> TheUni  <TheUni> majd: cd /dev/hda1 <--- can't cd to a device node can you??? .
[04:44] <tarheel> that is the ip address of his router
[04:44] <TheUni> heh, whoops
[04:44] <tritium> tarheel: no, it's not.  That's a reserved IP for private networks
[04:44] <majd> intelikey, i get: bash: cd: /dev/hda1: Not a directory
[04:45] <majd> i dont' know what's going on :(
[04:45] <intelikey> majd on what command ?
[04:45] <majd> cd /dev/hda1
[04:45] <tritium> majd: don't worry, that IP is useless to anyone not on your network
[04:45] <intelikey> majd try   cd `mount | grep hda1 | cut -d' ' -f3`
[04:45] <majd> oh ok
[04:45] <TheUni> majd: i was talking to TheMinion. and i meant /media anyway. heh. ignore me.
[04:45] <majd> oh ok lol i was confused
[04:46] <sunyata> uhm, hi! =)

[04:49] <Davey> tarheel: which?
[04:50] <tarheel> these network tools
[04:50] <Managu> juztin: not sure if you're still here, but you might try "sudo update-alternatives --config x-window-manager"
[04:50] <moonman> i need help adding people to my buddy list in GAIM
[04:50] <ufo> tritium, tell me more ;)
[04:50] <intelikey> majd it can.   but if you are only listening on  (what is it 27 ? )  http: then prolly not.
[04:50] <majd> brb
[04:50] <tarheel> i didnt have that kind of stuff in windows
[04:50] <Davey> tarheel: aah
[04:50] <tritium> ufo: see Fujitsu's comment to majd above
[04:50] <Davey> moonman: hit ctrl+b, fill out the form, done ;)
[04:50] <juztin> Managu, i was actually talking someone else through it...they found the session button after logging in and out three or four times, lol...but thanks anyway :)
[04:50] <nootrope> how can i get my usb wifi adapter to show up in the ubuntu network setup?
[04:50] <Managu> juztin: ahh, ok
[04:51] <Mischevious> hi, is it safe to update to gnome 2.14 on ubuntu 5.1
[04:51] <YukiCuss> Mischevious, 5.10, that is.
[04:51] <ufo> tritium, type iptables -L and you see what ports are closed on your computer
[04:51] <TheMinion> how do i make mplayer play a dvd that i mounted off my hard disk onto /mnt?
[04:51] <Mischevious> yes..
[04:51] <Mischevious> YukiCuss, is it safe?
[04:51] <moonman> Davey, bear with me, it tells me that ive got too many people in my buddy list, yet i know i dont, its just this one screenname thats giving me fits
[04:51] <YukiCuss> Mischevious, I wouldn't see why not.
[04:51] <neo911_> anyone know how to have firestarter running active but the application gui is not visible, only in the toolbar? i hope i made sense
[04:51] <Fujitsu> It's /safe/, yes, but you have to do it manually.
[04:51] <Davey> moonman: hrm, try #gaim :)
[04:51] <intelikey> majd i'd be more worried about running  sshd ftpd  and the like than httpd   but i'm not a network admin so i don't know.      repete "i don't know."
[04:51] <Mischevious> Fujitsu, how do you do that?
[04:51] <nootrope> my linksys wusb54g is being detected, according to the log, but it doesn't show up as a network device
[04:52] <Fujitsu> !compile
[04:52] <ubotu> A nice howto about compiling software from source code can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (but remember to search !apt first, after adding all the !repos)
[04:54] <ufo> tritium, did you find any open/closed ports
[04:54] <illicit> Any idea as to why my audio is all sped up and the voices are high-pitched?
[04:54] <tritium> ufo: nope
[04:55] <TheMinion> how do i unmount something?
[04:55] <Fujitsu> umount, TheMinion.
[04:55] <Mischevious> sudo umount /dev/whatever
[04:55] <Fujitsu> sudo umount /path/to/mountpoint
[04:55] <YukiCuss> sudo umount -a              >_>
[04:55] <YukiCuss> ON second hand don't. -_-
[04:56] <ReWT_AxS> My ubuntu has been being really laggy lately and whenever my screen saver comes on my whole system freezes and I have to hold my on button to do  hard shut down.
[04:56] <ReWT_AxS> Any ideas?
[04:56] <Fujitsu> Breezy or Dapper, ReWT_AxS
[04:56] <Fujitsu> *?
[04:56] <ufo> tritium, the ubuntu really does not have any kind of firewalling
[04:56] <ReWT_AxS> Breezy
[04:56] <Fujitsu> ufo, what are you talking about!?
[04:57] <ufo> Fujitsu, do you have something in iptables -L
[04:57] <rcsolutions> I think the w32codecs doesnt works on my amd64.. so I've tried this dchroot thing.. when I try to install it(dchroot_0.11_amd64.deb
[04:57] <rcsolutions> ) it says: "package architecture (amd64) does not match system (i386)
[04:57] <rcsolutions> " !?!?!?!?!?! Is it crazy? I am running a amd athtlon64 3500+!
[04:57] <kristopher> Is there much benefit to compiling my own Kernel?
[04:57] <ufo> Fujitsu, thats the firewall in linux
[04:57] <Fujitsu> I know, ufo.
[04:57] <Fujitsu> It doesn't need prebuilt firewall rules.
[04:58] <YukiCuss> Rcsolare you actually using the amd64 system?
[04:58] <ufo> Fujitsu, really tell me why?
[04:58] <tritium> ufo: because it's not needed
[04:58] <YukiCuss> ufo, no programs are installed by default that open any public ports.
[04:58] <ReWT_AxS> Fujitsu, it is breezy
[04:58] <rcsolutions> YukiCuss and athlon 64 3500+
[04:58] <rcsolutions> *an
[04:58] <Fujitsu> There are no ports open by default, ufo.
[04:58] <YukiCuss> rcsolutions, are you using the amd64 version of Ubuntu, I mean?
[04:58] <Cooner750> I have a tremendous headache from the 60Hz refresh rate here. Ubuntu says the monitor is a Aspire 55s. The max. resolution of the monitor is 1024x768 at 60Hz, however I want it at 800x600 at 90Hz (i know it goes to this because in Windows it works). I can select 640x480, 800x600, or 1024x768, but only 60Hz on all of them, except 800x600 which has the option of 56Hz (!)
[04:58] <Cooner750> The xorg.conf file is empty
[04:58] <rcsolutions> YukiCuss oh.. no..
[04:59] <TheMinion> how can i mount something as a dvd so i can play it in mplayer?
[04:59] <YukiCuss> rcsolutions, in that situation, w32codecs should just work anyway.
[04:59] <ali786> hi i have just installed webmin
[04:59] <ali786> and it says it has started but i dont know how to access
[04:59] <htrp> what's other desktop-like xfce4, gnome, etc?
[04:59] <ali786> it is not showing any url
[04:59] <ufo> YukiCuss, and every noob know what tehy are doing in linux when they install an app with apt-get and after few moments we got millions of ubuntu spam mailers all over the world
[04:59] <Nick_Garvey> htrp, kde, fluxbox
[04:59] <ali786> i want to run webmin for my samba
[04:59] <YukiCuss> ufo, it's quite plainly not needed.
[04:59] <htrp> other than xfce4, gnome, kde, fluxbox
[04:59] <htrp> ?
[04:59] <Fujitsu> http://localhost:10000/, ali786.
[04:59] <tritium> Cooner750: completely empty?  how did that happen?  "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to create a new one
[04:59] <illicit> Any idea as to why my audio is all sped up and the voices are high-pitched?
[04:59] <Nick_Garvey> oh um
[04:59] <YukiCuss> ufo, end discussion. It's been talked about extensively before.
[04:59] <Nick_Garvey> icewm
[04:59] <rcsolutions> allright then.. so I am the problem
[04:59] <ali786> ok Fujitsu
[04:59] <YukiCuss> rcsolutions, you'll figure it out.
[04:59] <htrp> icewm?
[05:00] <Nick_Garvey> google it
[05:00] <Fujitsu> Hi nalioth.
[05:00] <tritium> illicit: try not to repeat to frequently, okay?
[05:00] <illicit> tritium, It's a problem thats upsetting me. My apologies but just trying to get it solves
[05:00] <htrp> is it a package?
[05:00] <YukiCuss> illicit, if you don't get an answer, it probably means no one here (at the moment) knows an answer for you.
[05:00] <eirejah> can anyone help me out with these two things are on the end of my df -h   tmpfs 125M     0  125M   0% /dev/shm    and   tmpfs  125M   13M  113M  10% /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/volatile
[05:00] <illicit> tritium, you'd be upset to if everything u listened to sounded like a female on crack
[05:00] <Eroick> how do i get rails on ubuntu? the package uses an old version of rails and ruby 1.8.3 which is in the ruby1.8 package does not support rails.
[05:01] <eirejah> anyone know what those are ??
[05:01] <Cooner750> Once I use that command (I'm not at the Ubuntu box at the time), and if there is information in xorg.conf again, what lines do I add to get it to work at 800x600:90Hz?
[05:01] <YukiCuss> eirejah, yes. They're necessary for POSIX shared memory.
[05:01] <tritium> illicit: I'll be upset if you keep repeating, in which case I
[05:01] <arrinmurr> Cooner750: you'll need to find the right values for vertrefresh and horizsync, and change them in /etc/X11/xorg.conf - i don't really know where to look for them though, other than your monitor manual. but maybe they know in #xorg
[05:01] <eirejah> ok cool thanks
[05:01] <tritium> 'll +q you
[05:01] <Nick_Garvey> htrp, no idea, I was reading about it with debian-edu
[05:01] <YukiCuss> eirejah, so you can just leave them and be happy. :)
[05:01] <eirejah> :)
[05:01] <eirejah> thanks
[05:01] <nalioth> howdy
[05:01] <YukiCuss> Excellent.
[05:02] <luisito> Cooner750: do "sudo dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:02] <pestilence> i use gnu screen, and am getting an error when i re-attach a session:  "Could not write /var/run/utmp: no such process"... what does this mean?
[05:02] <luisito> Cooner750: do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" *
[05:02] <Nick_Garvey> yes it is a package
[05:02] <YukiCuss> pestilence, possibly an old version of screen? It's an odd error.
[05:02] <pestilence> YukiCuss, will check
[05:02] <YukiCuss> pestilence, can you show the permissions on /var/run/utmp ?
[05:03] <Mep30044> sorry this is a dumb question... but what is a .des archive and how do i open them
[05:03] <pestilence> YukiCuss, -rw-rw-r--  1 root utmp 5376 2006-03-19 20:55 /var/run/utmp
[05:03] <Fujitsu> .deb, Mep30044?
[05:03] <Mep30044> .deb*
[05:03] <Mep30044> sorry
[05:03] <pestilence> YukiCuss, and it's the breezy screen
[05:03] <YukiCuss> pestilence, odd, that's the correct permissions.
[05:03] <YukiCuss> pestilence, how about on screen itself?
[05:03] <Fujitsu> It is a Debian package. Install with sudo dpkg -i package.deb
[05:04] <pestilence> YukiCuss, -rwxr-sr-x  1 root utmp<PHONE_NUMBER>-02-28 09:23 /usr/bin/screen
[05:04] <Mep30044> thank you Fujitsu..
[05:04] <Mep30044> :)
[05:04] <Fujitsu> No problem, Mep30044.
[05:04] <luisito> Cooner750: before that try to get the horizontal and vertical frecuencies for your monitor in google
[05:04] <YukiCuss> pestilence, weird! It might be a bug in screen, I've never had it happen to me.
[05:04] <pestilence> YukiCuss, well, i looked on https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=screen ... couldn't find one
[05:04] <pestilence> YukiCuss, and launchpad is down :-(
[05:04] <YukiCuss> Hm...
[05:04] <YukiCuss> ><
[05:04] <ReWT_AxS> My ubuntu has been being really laggy lately and whenever my screen saver comes on my whole system (breezy) freezes and I have to hold my on button to do  hard shut down.
[05:05] <ReWT_AxS> Any ideas?
[05:05] <Fujitsu> Hmm.
[05:05] <Cooner750> That's what i've been looking for. The monitor is older and I'm still searching
[05:06] <Mep30044> opps it said the file type is not supported?
[05:06] <Mep30044> do i need to download a plugin for the archive manager
[05:06] <Fujitsu> Mep30044, were you installing with dpkg -i?
[05:06] <Mep30044> yes
[05:07] <Fujitsu> Sounds like it is a corrupt package then, Mep30044.
[05:07] <Cooner750> I also have another issue. I needed to use ndiswrapper to use windows drivers for my ZyXEL ZyAir G-302 wireless card, and my luck the link to the driver download on ZyXEL's site is broken
[05:07] <Mep30044> :( can't be it does it for every deb archive
[05:07] <Mep30044> why does it always open the archive manager..
[05:07] <Mep30044> can i turn it off
[05:07] <luisito> Cooner750: anyway, do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", that may fix your problem. by the way, I think you can get good refresh rate if is over 75Hz
[05:07] <JonathanKent> !repositories

[05:08] <TheMinion> how can i make mplayer play a dvd i mounted off my hard disk?
[05:09] <Eroick> how do i get ruby 1.8.4?
[05:09] <Fujitsu> Mep30044, type sudo dpkg -i package.deb in a terminal!
[05:09] <JonathanKent> what is the pag of the comands to install a java and mp3 etc.. is a pag of ubuntu.com
[05:09] <Fujitsu> !restricted
[05:09] <ubotu> well, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[05:09] <Cooner750> Interesting there appears to be 1 monitor that almost every distro of linux I tried has problems with, the Pavilion mx704, the one my HP has. Usually I have to manually edit the xorg to get it to work.
[05:09] <JonathanKent> thanks
[05:09] <eirejah> OK THATS A BIT SCARY .... type home in a firefox browser and it brings you nasa.gov
[05:09] <eirejah> ET phone home
[05:10] <YukiCuss> eirejah, note that NASA is the first result given by Google for `home'.
[05:10] <TheMinion> how can i make mplayer play a dvd i mounted off my hard disk?
[05:10] <YukiCuss> TheMinion, don't repeat your question every give minutes.
[05:10] <Fujitsu> By not illegally copying DVDs, TheMinion?
[05:10] <TheMinion> Fujitsu: it's a backed up dvd that i actually do own
[05:10] <Mep30044> Fujitsu it was in the konsole.. but it defults to the stupid Archive manager
[05:10] <htrp> TheMinion, use 'xine'
[05:10] <Mep30044> im not a complete idiot
[05:10] <Mep30044> lol
[05:10] <Eroick> YukiCuss: no, the home depot is
[05:11] <TheMinion> htrp: ok, thank you
[05:11] <Fujitsu> Mep30044, what do you mean it defaults?
[05:11] <pestilence> i get a different error when one of the shells spawned inside screen exits:  "Could not write /var/run/utmp: Interrupted system call"
[05:11] <YukiCuss> YukiCuss, ... ?
[05:11] <YukiCuss> Eroick, ...?
[05:11] <Eroick> YukiCuss: maybe thats google.ca
[05:11] <YukiCuss> Possibly.
[05:11] <Mep30044> when i do the command to extract a tar it just opens with the archive manager build intoi Ubuntu
[05:11] <DarthShrine> How odd...Rythmbox just stopped reading my music, and then refuses to run again
[05:12] <tritium> pestilence: you're on breezy?
[05:12] <Mep30044> maybe the version i have is a kiddie one or something
[05:12] <pestilence> tritium, yes
[05:12] <Fujitsu> tar zxvf, Mep30044?
[05:12] <ali786> i want to print on a windows 98 machine
[05:12] <eirejah> does anyone know of a simple graphical file manager that i can run from a command line? something along the lines of konqueror just not as bloaty  ?
[05:12] <ali786> i can see the other share folders from my samba
[05:12] <ali786> but i cannot see the printer ?
[05:12] <ali786> what is required to do?
[05:12] <Fujitsu> Mep30044, what is the command line you are using?
[05:12] <Mep30044> yes Fujitsu.. still opens with the archive manager
[05:12] <tritium> !tell ali786 about enter
[05:12] <Mep30044> one sec let me copy and paste
[05:12] <arrinmurr> eirejah: xfe ?
[05:13] <hunterp> how can i get java applets working in the browser
[05:13] <htrp> is there anyway to control my linux box from school, im talkin about like vnc and stuff?
[05:13] <eirejah> arrinmurr: cool thanks
[05:13] <htrp> my school is running windows though
[05:13] <htrp> any ideas?
[05:13] <Fujitsu> !java
[05:13] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[05:13] <YukiCuss> htrp, vnc works.
[05:13] <ali786> but tritium
[05:13] <htrp> Windows -> Linux ?
[05:13] <ali786> tritium i have pressed
[05:14] <ali786> tritium, it says printing but never prints
[05:14] <YukiCuss> htrp, yep. Find a Windows VNC client; eg. http://www.tightvnc.org/ is a good one.
[05:14] <ali786> :(
[05:14] <Mep30044> tar -xzvf firefox-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.gz
[05:14] <tritium> ali786: please consolidate your comments to one line.  use periods between sentences, rather than hitting enter
[05:14] <Mep30044> i can't even get that installed..lol first day using linux.. :(
[05:14] <Eroick> how do i downgrade ruby 1.8.3 to 1.8.2?
[05:14] <ufo> htrp, use ssh
[05:14] <htrp> just to make sure, i want to control a linux box using my school computer, which is windows
[05:14] <htrp> ufo, i do use ssh
[05:15] <ali786> tritium, oh ok sorry
[05:15] <YukiCuss> htrp, you can use VNC or SSH.
[05:15] <htrp> but i need to see the desktop
[05:15] <Fujitsu> I find that hard to believe, Mep30044. You are saying that that command opens up a graphical archive manager?
[05:15] <Eroick> htrp: then use vnc
[05:15] <YukiCuss> htrp, use a Windows VNC client to your system.
[05:15] <htrp> ic
[05:15] <Mep30044> yes
[05:15] <ufo> htrp, vnc is great but use some security for it
[05:15] <tritium> Mep30044: which command?  dpkg -i <package.deb>?  nonsense
[05:15] <Mep30044> i swear man..
[05:15] <htrp> aint vnc passworded?
[05:15] <ali786> how to see windows printer from samba ? windows server ?
[05:16] <Eroick> someone help me :(
[05:16] <protocol1> !ff1.5
[05:16] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[05:16] <ali786> do i need to configure something in the middle to make it configured ? to print on windows printer ?
[05:16] <htrp> iok
[05:16] <ufo> htrp, yes but bruteforced it does not take long to open it
[05:16] <htrp> is there any vnc server for ubuntu?
[05:16] <htrp> or any built-in one
[05:17] <poningru> many
[05:17] <Mep30044> how do i list the pid in konsole again?
[05:17] <poningru> !vnc
[05:17] <ubotu> hmm... vnc is http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-36715.html http://www.tightvnc.com/docs.html
[05:17] <htrp> i need a light one and easy-to-use
[05:17] <poningru> Mep30044: ps aux
[05:17] <poningru> Mep30044: or top
[05:17] <Mep30044> thank you
[05:17] <DarkMageZ> ali786: system, administration, printing, add printer
[05:17] <tritium> ps -ef :)
[05:17] <poningru> htrp: that is really easy to use
[05:17] <ufo> htrp, vnc-common
[05:18] <Cooner750> I have a quick question. Who here also uses a Mac (like me)?
[05:18] <htrp> tightvnc?
[05:18] <ali786> DarkMageZ, i am sudo user
[05:18] <tritium> Cooner750: I do, but is this offtopic?
[05:18] <htrp> i used to use realvnc
[05:18] <htrp> for windwos
[05:18] <majd> Cooner750, out of curiosity...why would you use linux when you have osx?
[05:18] <Cooner750> Yes, I was just wondering what IRC client you use on OS X.    ---- I use Linux on the Windows boxes :p
[05:18] <tritium> majd: software availability for one
[05:18] <ufo> htrp, its the client you can choose tight or real its your choise
[05:18] <Mep30044> OOHH
[05:19] <Mep30044> i figured it out
[05:19] <ali786> DarkMageZ, i did that
[05:19] <tritium> Cooner750: I use irssi when I'm on MacOS
[05:19] <YukiCuss> Mep30044, ?
[05:19] <Fujitsu> What, Mep30044?
[05:19] <htrp> tightvncserver is a package
[05:19] <htrp> nice
[05:19] <tritium> !tell htrp about enter
[05:19] <DarkMageZ> ali786: now figure out how to use that, and u will "hopefully" get your printer working
[05:19] <Cooner750> I found Colloquy today for OS X and I'm really starting to like it. My Mac is a iMac G5 1.9Ghz, w/ iSight built in, 1.5GB RAM and OS X 10.4.5
[05:19] <htrp> so can i just install tightvnc and use any other vnc viewer to control it?
[05:20] <YukiCuss> Mep30044, what was the issue?
[05:20] <Mep30044> i had this stupid build in program install thing open.. thats build into Ubuntu and it defulted it to the Archive manager to wait untill the that program was closed because it was using the database
[05:20] <ufo> htrp, yes
[05:20] <htrp> ic
[05:20] <ali786> DarkMageZ, it ask me to add the printer i did then ask me the host name i put the ip address and then it ask me to select the driver device i did that as well but when i try to give a test job it says printing but never prints :(
[05:20] <YukiCuss> ..... o_O
[05:20] <DarkMageZ> ali786: are u using the correct driver?
[05:20] <ali786> DarkMageZ, it is HP1100A laserjet

[05:20] <Mep30044> dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[05:21] <Mep30044> see
[05:21] <Mep30044> im stupid man.
[05:21] <Mep30044> :(
[05:21] <tritium> Mep30044: do you have synaptic open?
[05:21] <Fujitsu> I could have /sworn/ you said that it opened Archive Manager, Mep30044?
[05:21] <DarkMageZ> ali786: in the first part when u selected network printer, did u select SMB?
[05:21] <Mep30044> yes.. it did open with archive manager..
[05:21] <Mep30044> but to the archive..
[05:21] <Mep30044> not accully opening it
[05:22] <Mep30044> that was a miscommunication on my part
[05:22] <Mep30044> sorry
[05:22] <ali786> yes ali786
[05:22] <tritium> !enter
[05:22] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[05:22] <ali786> yes DarkMageZ
[05:23] <Agent_bob> hmmmm he's back....
[05:23] <dooglus> does anyone know how to reset the 'balance' on my sound card?  it keeps drifting to the left.
[05:23] <majd> !real
[05:23] <ubotu> majd: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:23] <majd> grrr
[05:23] <majd> tell majd about real player
[05:23] <majd> how does this work?
[05:23] <rcsolutions> I've installed some codecs for .wmv but it only plays the sound of the video.. and doesn't play well.. is it possible that I didn't install the correct codecs?
[05:23] <DarkMageZ> ali786: if the hostname and printer name and username and password are right, and you also have the correct driver, then it should work
[05:23] <tritium> !ubotu
[05:24] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
[05:24] <Fujitsu> !realplayer
[05:24] <vicutoru> hi, i have a problem. in normal mode. i can open in terminal, my sources.list. but in sudo, it doesnt open... could any body help me?
[05:24] <ubotu> realplayer is, like, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:24] <majd> thanks :)
[05:24] <dooglus> vicutoru: what sudo command are you typing?
[05:24] <Eroick> If you have rails working in breezy, please PM me.
[05:24] <vicutoru> sudo -s command
[05:25] <YukiCuss> vicutoru, just `sudo command'
[05:25] <YukiCuss> vicutoru, eg. sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:25] <vars> what is rails?
[05:25] <vicutoru> sudo -s gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:25] <Fujitsu> No.
[05:25] <Fujitsu> No -s.
[05:25] <YukiCuss> vicutoru, no, without th e-s
[05:25] <YukiCuss> the -s, that is.
[05:25] <Fujitsu> -s is to get a shell.
[05:25] <Fujitsu> Which you don't want.
[05:26] <vicutoru> oh, let me try
[05:26] <ali786> DarkMageZ, that means there is some problem with either of these ? there can be nothing else wrong ?
[05:26] <tonyyarusso> Any way to turn of my microphone (built-in)?  Like, if I'm on an internet phone call, and somebody walks into the room to talk to me, so the person on the other end doesn't have to listen to that in the background.
[05:26] <YukiCuss> tonyyarusso, you could deselect it as a recording device.
[05:26] <Fujitsu> Mute it, tonyyarusso?
[05:26] <ali786> DarkMageZ, printername i need to copy from that pc because there is no browse button on ubuntu to select graphically rite ?
[05:26] <DarkMageZ> ali786: or a bug in the software :) or something faulty with the network

[05:27] <YukiCuss> tonyyarusso, if you double click the speaker icon in the system tray, it should show `Volume Control'; select the Capture tab, and click the `toggle audio capture' icon for the appropriate device( eg. microphone )
[05:27] <qkslvrwolf> question about flash on breezy 32 bit:  is there a known reason why it won't accept keyboard input on some apps, and also doesn't seem to like my sound?

[05:28] <DarkMageZ> ali786: lol, just noticed i'm not in the dapper drake channel, in dapper, once u get the hostname right, it will list the printers on that host
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> YukiCuss: Oh man, I didn't even know that was there.  Cool.  (Is there a cli equivalent, out of curiosity?)
[05:28] <Fujitsu> alsamixer, tonyyarusso.
[05:28] <YukiCuss> tonyyarusso, sure is. alsamixer.
[05:28] <htrp> where can i find the font named 'fixed' ?
[05:29] <htrp> i googled and found windows ver
[05:29] <dooglus> does anyone know how to reset the 'balance' on my sound card?  it keeps drifting to the left.
[05:29] <YukiCuss> dooglus, try doubleclicking speaker icon in top right hand corner and adjusting balance there.
[05:29] <ali786> DarkMageZ, what is dapper drake channel ?
[05:29] <tonyyarusso> Fujitsu, YukiCuss: I tried that before, at it seemed to automatically raise the capture back up once there was sound to capture.  It was weird.
[05:29] <tritium> ali786: #ubuntu+1
[05:29] <DarkMageZ> ali786: dapper drake is ubuntu 6.0x
[05:29] <Fujitsu> Just mute it then.
[05:29] <YukiCuss> dooglus, oh wait ..
[05:29] <dooglus> YukiCuss: I tried that.  it doesn't help.  the right channel is still very quiet.
[05:29] <neoxan> 6.66
[05:29] <neoxan> :D
[05:30] <DarkMageZ> hey neoxan!
[05:30] <YukiCuss> dooglus, weird. ensuring that it's balanced on master, PCM, anything else? otherwise i'm not sure.
[05:30] <dooglus> DarkMageZ: aren't they using 6-06 for dapper?
[05:30] <htrp> where can i find the font named 'fixed' ?
[05:30] <Fujitsu> Sounds hardware...
[05:30] <neoxan> hey DarkMageZ :)
[05:30] <dooglus> (dashes instead of dots)
[05:30] <Fujitsu> Not necessary with the hyphen, dooglus. hasn't been decided yet.
[05:30] <DarkMageZ> dooglus: yes, i believe so, but some like to argue wit me about that one
[05:31] <dooglus> YukiCuss: it's balanced on both.  but even the "beeep" when I do a soft reboot was only on one channel
[05:31] <DarkMageZ> dooglus: so i try to avoid the arguement
[05:31] <dooglus> tonyyarusso: it was never a decimal system, that's the point.
[05:31] <fawefawuifhawiuf> req help. I just installed ubuntu on my other comp, and it's fully installed and all.  I dont know if its because it doesn't support my video card or something, but does anyone know how to fix it?
[05:31] <YukiCuss> dooglus, are you sure it's not a hardware issue?
[05:31] <YukiCuss> It's juts that I can't think of anything else.
[05:31] <dooglus> tonyyarusso: people saw the dot and thought it was a decimal point.  it wasn't.
[05:31] <YukiCuss> just*
[05:31] <majd> grrr..the .bin download from synaptic, the one on the wiki, and from real.com didn't work
[05:31] <dooglus> YukiCuss: if I do a hard reboot, the right channel works again for a while.
[05:32] <osmani> hola

[05:33] <YukiCuss> Brb.
[05:33] <htrp> where can i find the font named 'fixed' ?
[05:33] <tritium> htrp: what are you trying to do?
[05:33] <htrp> install tightvncserver
[05:33] <tritium> Hi Hobbsee :)
[05:34] <majd> how do you uninstall programs?
[05:34] <htrp> Fatal server error:
[05:34] <htrp> could not open default font 'fixed'
[05:34] <htrp> sorry bout the paste
[05:34] <htrp> majd, sudo apt-get remove <package>
[05:34] <majd> mkay
[05:34] <Hobbsee> hey tritium :)
[05:34] <tonyyarusso> htrp: I think it's looking for it in the XFree86 fonts directory, while Ubuntu uses X.org.  If you can locate both of those directories, then place a symlink in the former to the latter, it should work.
[05:34] <euphemism> wow, i just loaded ubuntu on my laptop and everything seems to be working perfectly with zero config ... even the volume buttons and wireless!
[05:35] <htrp> i don't get that tonyyarusso
[05:35] <tonyyarusso> htrp: All right, I'll try to expand a bit.
[05:35] <DarthShrine> Is it possible to install from the LiveCD?
[05:35] <ali786> DarkMagez
[05:35] <WoC> euphemism, what laptop are yuo using?
[05:36] <htrp> aight
[05:36] <euphemism> it's an hp ze5375us
[05:36] <ali786> DarkMageZ, can i download that seperately ?
[05:36] <WoC> ty, euphemism
[05:36] <ali786> is it possible ?
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> htrp: X is the graphics server (things like Gnome, etc run on top of / through that).  There are two different groups/distributions/whatever of it.  tightvnc is looking for fonts from the wrong one, and since Ubuntu uses the other, those fonts aren't where its's looking.
[05:37] <tonyyarusso> htrp: They do exist however, you just need to nudge it in the right direction.  A symlink basically is just a file that when stumbled across by tightvnc will say "Hey, look over there!", and direct it to the proper font directory.
[05:37] <tonyyarusso> htrp: Following so far?
[05:38] <fawefawuifhawiuf> req help. I just installed ubuntu on my other comp, and it's fully installed and all.  I dont know if its because it doesn't support my video card or something, but does anyone know how to fix it?
[05:38] <grigora> I was using mutella and accidentally killed it (ctrl-c) and now it doesn't seem to work, i get a message that all the gwebcaches are missing. anyone knows where to get these gwebcaches? thanks

[05:43] <Blue-Steel> replacing  the cmd line right ?
[05:43] <WoC> what would be a good way to find a packages related to apt-get ? such as packages for verifying package signature

[05:47] <haikal> what sup
[05:47] <Fujitsu> Hi haikal.
[05:47] <htrp> first, tell me whatd that do?
[05:47] <haikal> some one help me
[05:47] <Fujitsu> !helpme
[05:47] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[05:47] <haikal> how can i setup if i want add new server at xchat ?
[05:47] <ufo> euphemism, how did you try to connect to the share?
[05:47] <pestilence> rcsolutions, oh.  not sure if that installs it in the right place for the ubuntu mplayer package, but i bet it does
[05:48] <intelikey> tonyyarusso can't just add the font path ?
[05:48] <pestilence> rcsolutions, i don't think you should be installing debian packages in ubuntu though.
[05:48] <tonyyarusso> htrp: Make a directory.  Back up the actual content of the old fonts into that directory.  Make a symlink from where that directory is to the other one.
[05:48] <Fujitsu> haikal, XChat->Server List.
[05:48] <pestilence> rcsolutions, not that it probably matters in this case
[05:48] <haikal> and then ?
[05:48] <tonyyarusso> intelikey: If there's a better way, by all means, tell him (and me).  Please.
[05:48] <rcsolutions> pestilence, how can I be sure I am installing in the right place?
[05:48] <Fujitsu> haikal, click the Add button?
[05:48] <haikal> more
[05:48] <pestilence> rcsolutions, dpkg -L w32codecs
[05:49] <tonyyarusso> intelikey: I did that once just dinking around in desparation once and it seemed to work.  Certainly doesn't seem proper, so if you know more, offer the wisdom now.
[05:49] <euphemism> haikal: from places, network servers, workgroup, his computer, and then I clicked on the shared folder
[05:49] <tonyyarusso> htrp: Wait on that until intelikey talks.
[05:49] <intelikey> tonyyarusso not sure, but dfoma  should be able to just change the font path i think.
[05:49] <rcsolutions> pestilence a list of files has shown
[05:49] <htrp> Fatal server error:

[05:49] <pestilence> rcsolutions, right, they should be in /usr/lib/win32/
[05:49] <htrp> still got the same error
[05:49] <rcsolutions> pestilence, most of them.. some are in /user/share
[05:50] <pestilence> rcsolutions, if i were you, i would just uninstall that package and install the codecs straight from the source
[05:50] <tonyyarusso> htrp: Grr.
[05:50] <pestilence> rcsolutions, http://mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/dload.html
[05:50] <haikal> i try

[05:50] <shukhrat> how to change document root in apache ?
[05:50] <tonyyarusso> htrp: Maybe you have to install an extra font package?
[05:50] <shukhrat> how to change document root in apache2 ?
[05:51] <pestilence> rcsolutions, get "essential codecs package", unpack it, and copy contents to /usr/lib/win32
[05:51] <euphemism> ufo: it prompts for authentication and i don't know what to put .. i tried guest withno password
[05:51] <intelikey> tonyyarusso i don't know.   it was just a thought.   with the old  vfs / chkfontpath   and  xfree  it was pretty easy but this is xorg and defoma  or dfoma or what ever it is......
[05:51] <htrp> tonyyarusso, i didn't install any font packages
[05:51] <rcsolutions> pestilence how do I uninstall?
[05:51] <htrp> do i need it?
[05:51] <intelikey> vfs/xfs
[05:51] <Fujitsu> euphemism, put some proper authentication in, then?
[05:51] <ufo> euphemism, did you try to use your own or nothing?
[05:51] <tonyyarusso> htrp: Maybe.  I'm not sure at this point, since my intitial idea failed.
[05:51] <pestilence> rcsolutions, apt-get remove w32codecs
[05:52] <tonyyarusso> htrp: Might try Google and apt-cache search and see if anything likely comes up.
[05:52] <DBO> what is gam_server?
[05:52] <ufo> euphemism, i thind you had kde on suse?

[05:57] <b23> getting java and gcc to run
[05:57] <b23> and set up
[05:57] <intelikey> htrp i said  defoma = Debian Font Manager -- automatic font configuration framework    and it's already installed.
[05:57] <navy> what is a terminal irc client I can get with get-apt?
[05:57] <navy> I saw someone talking about one earlier
[05:57] <b23> JOGL grapgicx for java
[05:57] <htrp> ok
[05:57] <majd> ./etc/ini.d/apache restart isn't working
[05:58] <htrp> intelikey, so what do i do now?
[05:58] <b23> apache restart should work fine
[05:58] <philc> how can I clear the list of programs that are restored from the previous gnome session? I have something in there that's starting up and giving me a kernel panic
[05:58] <htrp> majd, try: /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[05:58] <intelikey> htrp read the man page on it maybe ?
[05:58] <majd> htrp: that was it :)
[05:59] <htrp> :)
[05:59] <Greif> when is go-live for dapper?
[05:59] <YukiCuss> philc, try gnome-session-remove --list ?
[05:59] <b23> anyone have trouble with the PATH thing?
[05:59] <philc> YukiCuss: you have to be in X
[05:59] <intelikey> b23 where ?
[05:59] <YukiCuss> Hm.
[05:59] <chavo> Philc ~/.gnome2/session is the file
[05:59] <navy> What is a good terminal irc client?
[06:00] <philc> chavo: tried that, not sure if it had any effect. I got a kernel panic, last proces was "gnome-settings-"
[06:00] <chavo> gnome-settings-daemon ?
[06:00] <b23> intelikey I was installing JOGL libraries for Java, and couldnt get the path to change
[06:00] <b23> changed it in bashrc
[06:00] <b23> but didnt register..
[06:00] <b23> rebooted
[06:00] <intelikey> no
[06:00] <b23> didnt register
[06:00] <intelikey> bash
[06:01] <philc> chavo: maybe, but the panic output just says gnome-settings-
[06:01] <chavo> PhilC, are you running dapper?
[06:01] <philc> yes
[06:01] <b23> then changed it in.....login defs or something
[06:01] <rcsolutions> hey what's the command to copy files from a path to another?
[06:01] <b23> didnt register
[06:01] <Nickgarvey> I have 3 desktop enviroments instatlled, and I have a lot of double icons on my menu, how can I remove these?
[06:01] <YukiCuss> rcsolutions, cp /somewhere/a /some/where/else/b
[06:01] <chavo> ok, I tried to log into gnome earlier and gnome-settings-daemon kept crashing
[06:01] <intelikey> b23 open a terminal and type  bash
[06:01] <chavo> no kernel panic here though
[06:01] <philc> chavo: hmm. how'd you get around that?
[06:01] <YukiCuss> rcsolutions, for a whole directory tree, cp -r /some/dir/ /somewhere/else/
[06:01] <chavo> I run KDE normally
[06:02] <philc> I can create a new user and they log in correctly. Ithink the daemon is running ok for the new user
[06:02] <rgck60l> j
[06:02] <intelikey> b23 then echo $PATH
[06:02] <b23> what should that do?
[06:02] <chavo> just wanted to try something out in gnome
[06:02] <philc> yep
[06:02] <chavo> i'll try that here
[06:02] <b23> i'm not on the Ubuntu at this time intelikey
[06:02] <navy> ssh ftw
[06:02] <intelikey> b23 hehhe it's kinda hard to fix then.....
[06:03] <b23> YES
[06:03] <b23> true
[06:03] <b23> oh well
[06:03] <b23> its okay
[06:03] <JonathanKent> what is the comand for create a folder in terminal
[06:03] <b23> I'm just glad I found IRC
[06:03] <Hobbsee> JonathanKent: mkdir
[06:03] <YukiCuss> JonathanKent, mkdir
[06:03] <Fujitsu> mkdir, JonathanKent.
[06:03] <b23> I've never been on it before
[06:03] <Hobbsee> lol
[06:03] <b23> ever
[06:03] <Hobbsee> are we all in agreement on this?
[06:03] <rgck60l> j
[06:03] <zebrafusion> Hi
[06:03] <Fujitsu> I think so.
[06:03] <Hobbsee> oh good :P
[06:03] <YukiCuss> Hobbsee, no, never. I debate that it's mkdir.
[06:03] <Hobbsee> hehe
[06:04] <htrp> JonathanKent, there's no 'folder' n linux, but there's 'directory' though
[06:04] <b23> so my dear colleagues, does Ubuntu suck, compared to other distros or what?
[06:04] <chavo> just tried with a new user and gnome-settings-daemon is not working
[06:04] <Kaiser_Away> you don't make folders in a terminal, you make folders in a GUI
[06:04] <intelikey> b23  i'm betting you didn't export the path after setting it in your bashrc file.      echo 'export PATH ' >> .bashrc      and restart bash.
[06:04] <Nickgarvey> !popularity-contest
[06:04] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Nickgarvey
[06:04] <b23> I have nothing to compare it to
[06:04] <htrp> word
[06:04] <intelikey> b23  no about the same.
[06:05] <b23> I see intelikey...
[06:05] <zebrafusion> Hi. I'm having an issue where my wireless PCMCIA card is loading the WRONG drivers.
[06:05] <b23> what cities are you all in>
[06:05] <mcrawfor> where can i get a nice list of apt sources mirrors?
[06:05] <euphemism> ufo: it works if i use the "connect to server" instead of browsing to the share
[06:05] <b23> NYC here
[06:05] <intelikey> linux is linux,  not much difference in them really.
[06:05] <philc> chavo: I moved .gconf to .gconf.old, so somewhere in there is the session info, or the preference that was giving me a kernel crash
[06:05] <Hobbsee> !tell mcrawfor about repos
[06:05] <Hobbsee> !tell mcrawfor about mirrors
[06:05] <euphemism> ufo: all good now :)
[06:05] <mcrawfor> my downloads from us.archive. and archive. always stall
[06:05] <intelikey> !offtopic
[06:05] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[06:05] <b23> so sorry
[06:05] <crimsun> mcrawfor: try se.archive, then
[06:05] <ufo> euphemism, good :)
[06:05] <mcrawfor> Hobbsee: thanky
