[09:08] <scguy318> giggsey: chkdsk on Windows
[09:08] <datakid23_> hola, I've been trying to install fglrx no luck, going back has been tricky. Anyway, i'm missing my launcher bar (top of the screen, with Applications, Places, etc, date) and my bottom of the screen "taskbar"
[09:08] <datakid23_> how do I restore them?
[09:08] <TigranG> Jadd76: I don;t think that worked. But anyways, I'm just going to try re-installing one more time then making a new user.
[09:08] <giggsey> scguy318, I can't boot windows to run it
[09:08] <Jadd76> TigranG: if that doesn't work, ctrl-c the nautilus, enter pkill nautilus, and then run nautilus
[09:09] <Jadd76> I did it just now
[09:09] <scguy318> giggsey: do it from a Recovery Console or a Windows LiveCD (yes those exist)
[09:09] <giggsey> Okay
[09:09] <TigranG> Jadd76: Alright. Thanks. I'm gonna go, its 1 AM here, good night, bye
[09:09] <Jadd76> Good night!
[09:10] <scguy318> giggsey: is the message you showed me the only thing it said?
[09:10] <DP> how do I edit /boot/menu.lst?
[09:10] <giggsey> scguy318, http://pastebin.com/m34c149b3
[09:11] <itai> DP, you mean GRUB?
[09:11] <DP> yeah
[09:11] <itai> DP, what do you want to achieve?
[09:11] <scguy318> giggsey: is the drive any sort of SoftRAID or the like?
[09:11] <giggsey> nope
[09:11] <DP> I want to set windows xp to boot by default
[09:12] <scguy318> giggsey: yeah, then I would run chkdsk /f on Windows
[09:12] <itai> DP, probably sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:12] <scguy318> giggsey: I would also take the opportunity to backup data from the NTFS part if you can, just in case
[09:12] <DP> great thanks.
[09:12] <giggsey> I can't at the moment, can't get anything from it
[09:13] <itai> DP, count the number of operating systems appearing in the menu , the first is 0 ,if there is a separator -count it as well
[09:13] <white_eagle> thanks dudes
[09:13] <keithclark> scguy318.....get some sleep!
[09:13] <white_eagle> for taking out the ban
[09:13] <scguy318> giggsey: well when the drive is readable again that is :)
[09:13] <scguy318> keithclark: you're right
[09:13] <Sisco> anyone have ShroudBNC download URL?
[09:13] <keithclark> scguy318....btw, pclos worked again....I have no idea why.
[09:14] <scguy318> keithclark: cool
[09:14] <giggsey> scguy318, would the fact that I had vista on it effect a windows livecd?
[09:14] <keithclark> scguy318....but, get to bed regardless!
[09:14] <scguy318> giggsey: no
[09:14] <giggsey> good, thanks
[09:14] <scguy318> keithclark: alright in a sec :P
[09:14] <itai> giggsey, theres a windows live CD?
[09:14] <scguy318> itai: oh yes there are, BartPE, and stuff like that
[09:14] <scguy318> itai: you have to create from an existing install or find on a P2P network
[09:15] <scguy318> but yeah night all
[09:15] <scguy318> giggsey: g/l with your issue
[09:15] <itai> scguy318, like knoppix?
[09:15] <LetterRip_> anyone know what would cause slight audio lag of video when playing back DVDs?
[09:15] <scguy318> itai: yeah, sorta
[09:15] <giggsey> scguy318, thanks :)
[09:15] <keithclark> scguy318, good evening and get well.....later
[09:15] <scguy318> night cya thanks
[09:16] <LetterRip_> also picture quality seems a bit odd - like the each frame has been oversharppened or such
[09:16] <LetterRip_> using vlc right now - which is the same player as i used on windows
[09:16] <ocha> hello, all.  I am having a problem with wine,  everytime I try to open two different wine applications, one minimizes.  How do I fix this?
[09:17] <steve_> anyone: how do you uninstall eclipse sofware
[09:17] <white_eagle> !night
[09:17] <ubotu> It's the middle of the night in the US and Europe, and surrounds.  This means that a lot of people are likely asleep, therefore there are less potential people who can answer your question.  Please be patient, and consider asking at a time when more people will be awake.  This is particularly true in the quieter channels.
[09:17] <keithclark> LetterRip, does vlc playback commercial dvds?
[09:17] <steve_>  software
[09:18] <LetterRip_> keithclark yes
[09:18] <oldboy> HELLO! i have installed ubuntu ultimate 1.6 (gutsy 7.10) and i have long time to boot (approximately  7 minutes). Does anyone Knows what to do???
[09:18] <Tmo85> !nvidia
[09:18] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:18] <LetterRip_> if the additional support software is installed
[09:18] <itai> oldboy, thats very long, what are your spces?
[09:19] <bullgard4> sleep.sh will print in the terminal to the left of most output lines plus signs. I presume these plus signs indicate some level of program nesting. Where are these plus signs explained in man bash? (Difficult to find for me.)
[09:19] <wolfman2323> !ntfs3g
[09:19] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:19] <steve_> anyone knows how to uninstall a eclipse client
[09:19] <Tmo85> !nvidia
[09:19] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:20] <oldboy> 8G home 8G root and 1G swap
[09:20] <Flannel> steve_: That depends on how you installed it
[09:20] <itai> oldboy, i mean cpu,memory
[09:20] <LetterRip_> !guilty
[09:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about guilty - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:20] <keithclark> LetterRip I need a piece of software that will go out and get what it needs to playback dvds.  I also need a laptop keyboard driver that will not radomly move my cursor to some already typed in message.
[09:20] <LetterRip_> heheh
[09:20] <LetterRip_> keithclark search for dvd linux
[09:20] <oldboy> 2G memory and 2Ghz cpu
[09:20] <LetterRip_> or dvd ubuntu
[09:21] <oldboy> one core
[09:21] <keithclark> LetterRip, I've tried all the easy stuff
[09:21] <itai> oldboy, i suspect something is wrong , is ubuntu fast after it boots?
[09:21] <pjeide> itai: it should be, yes
[09:21] <pjeide> itai: at least on a relatively capable system..
[09:22] <oldboy> itai, when ubuntu starts everything works perfect
[09:22] <itai> pjeide, ...no..i was asking oldboy...
[09:22] <LetterRip_> keithclark, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#How_To_Add_DVD_Playback_Capability
[09:22] <pjeide> nifty
[09:22] <keithclark> LetterRip...if I had unusual hardware I could see it.  Ihave an off the shelf Compaq R4000 bought at Futureshop
[09:23] <keithclark> LetterRip, I tried all the wiki stuff
[09:23] <keithclark> 64 bit, 32 bit
[09:23] <LetterRip_> keithclark, sorry no idea than.  I've only recently migrated myself
[09:23] <LetterRip_> gnight all
[09:23] <Flannel> oldboy: Ubuntu ultimate isn't supported here.  It's an unofficial perversion of normal Ubuntu, where they add a whole bunch of extra junk.  You might try installing the official Ubuntu, seeing if that helps.  Also, long boot times sometimes are because of DHCP
[09:23] <keithclark> I just don't get why PCLinuxOS works out of the box but Ubuntu fails.
[09:23] <mario> i have a question, how do i find out which app is starting gnome-help at startup???
[09:23] <itai> oldboy, i have no idea about ubuntu ultimate, but what i would do is download BUM and start cancelling unnecessary stuff on boot. If you are more comfertable with Linux you can try running a programme called sysvconfig - but be very careful with it. ask here if you are not sure
[09:24] <r3n0c> where is the respositories list hidden?
[09:24] <r3n0c> /etc/....
[09:24] <Flannel> r3n0c: /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:24] <r3n0c> apt, lol damn
[09:24] <oldboy> itai, thank you very much
[09:25] <anquietas> Greetings.
[09:25] <r3n0c> `can somebody try to help me, i keep get stuck when i try to install or do anything
[09:25] <r3n0c> java keeps flipping out,
[09:26] <Flannel> oldboy: check out bootchart, it'll give you a graphical chart depicting your boot process.  But again, I urge you to dump the "Ultimate edition" and go with normal (and supported) Ubuntu.
[09:26] <r3n0c> even when i try to do sudo apt-get update or upgrade
[09:26] <r3n0c> it won't install and i don't know why
[09:26] <r3n0c> i tried to remove and re add it
[09:26] <r3n0c> but i coulnd't even remove it
[09:26] <oldboy> Flannel: you are right. I am new linux user and i thought it would help me
[09:27] <itai> oldboy, are you named after the korean movie?
[09:27] <oldboy> itai, yes i liked the movie and kept the nickname
[09:28] <oldboy> itai, did you see it?
[09:28] <itai> itai, yes
[09:28] <itai> oldboy, it left a strong impression on me
[09:29] <r3n0c> ok different question: anyboyd know how to encrypt network traffic, between say me, the client, and a host server(windows)
[09:29] <r3n0c> it is ftp traffic
[09:29] <oldboy> itai, me too!!
[09:29] <r3n0c> the host is using filezilla
[09:29] <Flannel> r3n0c: Use scp instead of ftp
[09:29] <itai> oldboy, there are several restaurants serving live octupus near my house
[09:29] <r3n0c> scp?
[09:29] <Flannel> !scp | r3n0c
[09:29] <ubotu> r3n0c: SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/
[09:29] <r3n0c> does anything have to be setup on the host machine?
[09:29] <Flannel> r3n0c: scp : ftp :: ssh : telnet
[09:30] <Flannel> If you have an ssh account on the host machine, usually you can scp already.
[09:30] <itai> r3n0c, what are you trying in install and what errors are you getting?
[09:30] <r3n0c> itai,  i'm seing if i can fix right now
[09:30] <r3n0c> ok so if i got rid of filezilla on the host, and used WinSCP
[09:30] <anquietas> I am in need of an idea - I want to install Ubuntu onto my SATA HDD, but the last time I formatted it and installed a new OS, I seemingly was incapable of accessing my private data which is saved on my second (IDE) HDD. Don't ask for the reason - I don't know. It's just that I fear losing all my private data again and it's way too much to be backupped on DVDs.
[09:30] <oldboy> itai :)
[09:31] <Flannel> r3n0c: winSCP is a client, not a server.  You'd need a SSH server.  You might check if FZ server will do it.  I know their client will now
[09:31] <r3n0c> Flannel,  ok so if i just did scp hostname
[09:31] <oldboy> itai, yesterday i ate cooked octupus
[09:31] <r3n0c> it would be encrypted traffic?
[09:31] <Flannel> scp is encrypted, yes.  just like ssh.
[09:31] <oldboy> itai, and its better
[09:32] <Tmo85> hi iv been trying to install the nvidia drviers and its just not working for me
[09:32] <donogameel> anyone know how to change the default background color of the login screen? when i login with GDM and the Gnome splash is displaying, there is the ugly default orange that I can't get rid of
[09:32] <Tmo85> i tired the sudo -i sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-169.07-pkg2.run but it said it cannot open this file
[09:32] <r3n0c> when i try to do scp user@host
[09:32] <itai> oldboy, im sure it is...but the eating a live octopus added an interesting dimention to the movie...
[09:32] <r3n0c> it just spits back how to use scp at me
[09:33] <donogameel> Tmo85: use the Restricted Drivers app
[09:33] <Tmo85> no net connection
[09:33] <mario> help1
[09:33] <mario> help!
[09:33] <itai> anquietas, did you lose all your data?
[09:33] <anquietas> I did, and it was hurtful, itai. I wish to ensure that my data is safe, when I format my SATA.
[09:33] <ruif13> Hi,
[09:34] <Tmo85> unless i can use the restrected drivers in offline mode?
[09:34] <ruif13> i problem with access on read & write to my windows hd's
[09:34] <ruif13> anyone can help?
[09:34] <itai> anquietas, if you are that concerned, just pull the IDE out when you install Ubuntu...
[09:35] <anquietas> I fear that I can't access the files when I plug it out. Is there a commonly known issue with ReiserFS, as to data retrieval after connection modifications?
[09:35] <donogameel> Tmo85: i had probs trying to install the NVIDIA driver the way you're doing it with Ubuntu - just wouldn't work for some reason. The only way I could get it going was with the Restricted Drivers app
[09:35] <Tmo85> anyone here that can help me? all the guides iv found online are just to use the restircted drivers app but i have no net connection so i cant
[09:35] <r3n0c> ok um i got to where i have a problem doing sudo apt-get update
[09:35] <Tmo85> ok
[09:35] <Tmo85> in that case
[09:35] <r3n0c> it tries to install java... and crashes horribly
[09:35] <Tmo85> i need to figure uot
[09:36] <Tmo85> how to set up my wifi usb dongle
[09:36] <r3n0c> can somebody check out the paste bin?
[09:36] <oldboy> Thanks guys for your help!!See You!
[09:36] <itai> oldboy, good luck
[09:36] <Tmo85> but i really need to get my grapchis working
[09:36] <Tmo85> i need to set up the zoom fucntion better so its easy for me to see
[09:36] <predaeus> donogameel, maybe it is the "Background color" setting in the Login Window Preferences. Not sure about that though, this had to be edited by hand in gnome in earlier days.
[09:36] <itai> r3n0c, which pastebin?
[09:36] <Tmo85> surely there is a way to install it offline mode
[09:37] <r3n0c> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49266/
[09:37] <donogameel> predaeus: nah i changed that but it's still orange so it must be something else
[09:37] <wolfman2323> !wine
[09:37] <ubotu> WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[09:38] <r3n0c> itai,  any ideas?
[09:38] <anquietas> Mhhh, any ideas?
[09:38] <anquietas> Hehe.
[09:38] <predaeus> anquietas, was the drive not available (mounted) last time or were the files gone?
[09:38] <super_pippo> hello everybody
[09:38] <super_pippo> I'm new here
[09:39] <anquietas> The files were gone, interestingly, predaeus. And it's a new HDD - There can hardly be any hardware malfunctions.
[09:39] <itai> r3n0c, what is this? it asks you to dopwnload something from SUN
[09:39] <r3n0c> itai,  that happens when i try to just do sudo apt-get update
[09:39] <itai> r3n0c, it doesnt seem to have anything to do with apt
[09:39] <skullhead> dumb question what is the command to install a .run?
[09:39] <ruif13> hi i problem with access on read & write to my windows hd's anyone can help?

[09:41] <predaeus> donogameel, looks like it is a bug, there is a workaround here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/140821    maybe that helps
[09:41] <Jadd76> ruif13: yeah, I was just checking you had read/write access for NTFS, which Gutsy should have by default
[09:41] <Slart> skullhead: sudo sh thefile.run

[09:41] <r3n0c> ok, it just keeps trying to install itself
[09:41] <itai> r3n0c, sudo apt-get install -f
[09:41] <anquietas> Mh. I suppose buying a new HDD and saving the data twice should do it. =/

[09:42] <anquietas> Another problem I encountered while testing Ubuntu from the LiveCD: The desktop wasn't well centered on my screen with its native resolution. What could cause it?
[09:42] <predaeus> anquietas, sounds weird. Yes, maybe to be sure.
[09:42] <eS|Cory`> anquietas: how much data do you need to backup?
[09:42] <r3n0c> super_pippo,  i triedd to install java a few days ago so that i could do, javac and java in terminal
[09:42] <anquietas> eS|Cory`  43 GB
[09:43] <r3n0c> super_pippo,  which works just fine now, but when i do apt-get update it keeps telling me that i neeed to get sun-java6-doc
[09:43] <mario> i hate yelp!
[09:43] <eS|Cory`> anquietas I can let you back it up on my server if you want, for a few day's for free.
[09:44] <eS|Cory`> its located in chicago tho
[09:44] <eS|Cory`> but its on a 100MBIT pipe
[09:44] <r3n0c> super_pippo,  check: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49266/
[09:45] <anquietas> Thanks, eS|Cory`  That's a very kind offer. :) But I'll try to back it up first with another HDD.
[09:45] <eS|Cory`> r3n0c: is there a default root password? as there wasnt an option in the install for 7.10 to set it and i need it.
[09:45] <eS|Cory`> anquietas: not a problem just trying to save you money :P
[09:45] <chraso> and another prob. is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49267/ when treid to follow the install of ATI driver as on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto#head-8055f455b66a39399b91db278f9a12b91a5b123c
[09:45] <ruif13> ok Jadd76 thanks for your help :(
[09:45] <r3n0c> eS|Cory`,  what do you mean?
[09:45] <eS|Cory`> chraso: did you run the oem install?
[09:46] <anquietas> Hehe.  I guess I can manage to get an HDD for free for a few days and the data transfer would be significantly faster, eS|Cory`.  =D
[09:46] <chraso> nope
[09:46] <chraso> and another problem with my install is my gtk(or whatever) applicationss looks like this http://<IP_ADDRESS>/Screenshot-2.png please help me solve this

[09:47] <r3n0c> if you really want to be total root, sudo su
[09:47] <r3n0c> then login
[09:47] <nickrud> r3n0c, easier is sudo -i
[09:47] <r3n0c> but you should just do sudo [command]

[09:51] <Newuserr> hi guys i am using ubuntu 7.10 and pidgin , how can i encrypt messages there?
[09:51] <pg> My camera does not mount when I plug it in by USB.  My settings in System -> Preferences -> Removable drives and media are set to  "Import digital photographs when connected".
[09:53] <chraso> wake up node
[09:53] <predaeus> Newuserr, I only know that there is a plugin that only works if the other user also uses pidgin (at least with gaim it was like that, gaim has been renamed to pidgin)
[09:54] <nickrud> chraso, you're missing your fonts
[09:54] <r3n0c> anybody know how to get scp to work?
[09:54] <white_eagle> !camera
[09:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about camera - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:54] <Newuserr> pradaeus: that is bad :(
[09:54] <chraso> the node is ignoring
[09:54] <chraso> or don't wanted to
[09:54] <predaeus> r3n0c, what is happening?
[09:54] <r3n0c> i just want to use it to connect to my ftp server, to have the traffic be encrypted
[09:54] <chraso> can anyone tell me what is missing or what the prob is with my sys? just look at this screen shot http://<IP_ADDRESS>/Screenshot-2.png
[09:55] <r3n0c> predaeus, but when i do scp hostname, it just tells me the syntax for scp
[09:55] <r3n0c> predaeus,  do i have to install some other software? openssh?
[09:55] <chraso> as u can see there is no text in the xmms options dialog
[09:55] <predaeus> r3n0c, you need to specify a filename to copy, either remote or local.
[09:55] <r3n0c> so i can't ftp to a server and look around first?
[09:55] <chraso> nickrud: ru reading?
[09:56] <r3n0c> predaeus, i thought it was just like a ssh ftp connection
[09:56] <r3n0c> ls
[09:56] <r3n0c> lol sry
[09:56] <predaeus> r3n0c, like "scp myname@myhost:/home/myname/myfile  ./mylocaldir/" or "scp ./mylocaldir/myfile<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:56] <nickrud> chraso, installing xmms , do you have any other gtk1 apps installed?
[09:56] <predaeus> r3n0c, scp is for copying files over ssh.
[09:56] <nickrud> chraso, and are they also missing fonts?
[09:57] <pg> chraso: My browser can't connect to that server
[09:57] <predaeus> r3n0c, you would login with ssh for that
[09:57] <r3n0c> predaeus, o so how would i go about amaking my ftp traffic secure
[09:57] <r3n0c> someobdy earlier said use scp
[09:57] <Nicke> r3n0c: If using gnome, you can type ssh://server in Nautilus to browse the files
[09:57] <nickrud> forgot how ugly gtk1 was
[09:57] <r3n0c> but it an ftp server
[09:57] <chraso> ok yes i have many
[09:57] <predaeus> r3n0c, Nicke is right. The server would have to host an ssh service (daemon) for that to work.
[09:58] <chraso> pg: server is slow
[09:58] <Nicke> yeah
[09:58] <nickrud> chraso, is that the only one that's missing fonts?
[09:58] <predaeus> r3n0c, you can use gnomeftp or maybe even nautilus to browse ftp too
[09:58] <chraso> but they are also looks same
[09:58] <ocha> anyone got any info on stop wine from minimizing when running two instances of wine?
[09:58] <r3n0c> i was just using ftp to connect
[09:58] <r3n0c> i was just wondering how to encrypt it
[09:58] <chraso> nope every
[09:58] <r3n0c> the host is using filezilla on a windows box
[09:59] <chraso> apps missis it
[09:59] <r3n0c> is there an easy way to setup ssl on it?
[09:59] <pg> My camera does not mount when I plug it in by USB.  My settings in System -> Preferences -> Removable drives and media are set to "Import digital photographs when connected".
[09:59] <predaeus> r3n0c, I don't know, I think easiest would be to run an ssh server on it and use scp and ssh.
[10:00] <predaeus> r3n0c, don't know how to on windows though.
[10:00] <r3n0c> o ok, so on the host i would have to have ssh setup
[10:00] <chraso> nickrud, every app like that misses font look at http://geocities.com/chraso/Screenshot.png
[10:00] <nickrud> chraso, it's been a long time since I thought much about gtk1 ...
[10:00] <r3n0c> thats what i was thikning, i was confused about just using scp to ssh to the ftp server
[10:00] <r3n0c> lol
[10:00] <chraso> its 2 out now
[10:00] <predaeus> r3n0c, yes, the server always has to provide the service.
[10:00] <r3n0c> argh i have to go to sleep soon, it is 5am
[10:01] <r3n0c> predaeus, ok, i guess either time to put linux on my windows box or to go find a ssh client
[10:01] <eS|Cory`> r3n0c
[10:01] <eS|Cory`> google for putty
[10:01] <Nicke> r3n0c: The Filezilla client supports ssl, no idea about the server though
[10:01] <eS|Cory`> windows ssh client
[10:01] <eS|Cory`> :)
[10:01] <r3n0c> eS|Cory`,  can you explain how to get putty to work tho? i have it, but i have no idea what to do with it
[10:02] <eS|Cory`> ok open it up
[10:02] <eS|Cory`> for hostname: put your ip that you want to connect to
[10:02] <eS|Cory`> then belong that you will see rlogin telent ssh ect
[10:02] <eS|Cory`> select ssh
[10:02] <r3n0c> eS|Cory`,  the ftp server is on the windows box.... with putty
[10:02] <r3n0c> i'm on a linux box
[10:02] <eS|Cory`> wait
[10:02] <giggsey> Is there a tool which will rewrite the partition table to the disk by scanning the drive for the actual partitions?
[10:02] <wolfman2323> !bbl
[10:02] <eS|Cory`> are you trying to ftp
[10:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bbl - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:02] <eS|Cory`> ?
[10:02] <r3n0c> yeah, but i want to encrypt it
[10:03] <eS|Cory`> um
[10:03] <eS|Cory`> not sure
[10:03] <eS|Cory`> lol
[10:03] <r3n0c> lol ok
[10:03] <eS|Cory`> sorry
[10:03] <r3n0c> it's aite
[10:03] <eS|Cory`> my only guess would be download and install wine
[10:03] <eS|Cory`> then get smartftp or flashfxp
[10:03] <r3n0c> i am pretty sure that you are not able to put ftp traffic into ssh tunnels
[10:03] <r3n0c> it just doesn't work
[10:03] <giggsey> How about scp?
[10:03] <eS|Cory`> both ftp clients that support uh ssl
[10:04] <r3n0c> lol o god this again. ok giggsey  can you explain how to do, 1)host is filezilla on a windows box
[10:04] <Tyczek> Do you know any {WB} script to xchat?
[10:04] <r3n0c> giggsey,  2)i am on a linux box.      3) encrypt the ftp traffic
[10:04] <giggsey> Ahh, fair point
[10:04] <r3n0c> giggsey,  lol sorry, thanks tho
[10:04] <giggsey> if you had an ssh server on the windows box, you could use ssh to download the files using rsync?
[10:04] <MasseR> I just updated ubuntu and it somehow messed grub up. ls /boot doesn't return anything related to grub
[10:05] <eS|Cory`> r3n0c why the need to encrpyt the ftp traffic
[10:05] <eS|Cory`> ?
[10:05] <predaeus> giggsey, try http://www.linux.com/base/ldp/howto/Partition/recovering.html  but I just found this on the web, untested.
[10:05] <hwdyki> is there a version of module-init-tools that supports gzipped modules?
[10:05] <r3n0c> eS|Cory`,  b/c the ftp can be accessed from anywhere, along with my vnc server
[10:05] <r3n0c> and if it gets a lot of use..... it just would be better
[10:05] <eS|Cory`> erase logs when done?
[10:05] <Ahri> hi, i have a computer with no cdrom drive, and would like to install ubuntu from a usb stick, but can mainly find guides for installing _to_ a usb stick - is there an official guide to install _from_ one?
[10:06] <Newuserr> eS|Cory : for seurity reasons
[10:06] <Newuserr> eS|Cory : for security reasons
[10:06] <nickrud> MasseR, sudo aptitude reinstall grub
[10:06] <Newuserr> eS|Cory : everything should be encrypted
[10:06] <eS|Cory`> lol Newuserr only reason i would encrpyt my ftp is if i was transfering proof of cencept programs
[10:06] <r3n0c> ok um random question, how do you copy directories to other places
[10:07] <predaeus> !install | Ahri (maybe there is some info ther)
[10:07] <ubotu> Ahri (maybe there is some info ther): Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[10:07] <nickrud> chraso, I don't remember anything about gtk1 any more, sorry
[10:07] <hwdyki> nobody knows?
[10:08] <mongo1> im about to install ubuntu over vista... can someone here help me with this?
[10:08] <chraso> no prob.
[10:08] <chraso> nickrud, no prob. at least u idenified the prob for me. so ur sure that the gtk
[10:08] <Newuserr> eS|Cory : everything should be encrypted for safety
[10:08] <r3n0c> yea
[10:09] <nickrud> chraso, yes, it's somewhere in the gtk1 libraries, probably a missing font or font lib
[10:09] <borndeer> @mongo1: have you got the ubuntu CD ?
[10:09] <mongo1> amd64 alt cd yes
[10:09] <nickrud> chraso, you should pick a more modern player, anyway. Nearly every gtk1 app has been replaced with a better gtk2 one, anyway
[10:10] <nickrud> anyway works for me I guess
[10:10] <Newuserr> eS|Cory : not possible to configure ubuntu so that everything going out is encrypted?
[10:10] <mongo1> borndeer, the hdd is 149gb... how much should i set for each?
[10:10] <Newuserr> not possible to configure ubuntu so that everything going out is encrypted?
[10:10] <DEadPuNk> anyone know how to put colors on the message i type on main
[10:11] <borndeer> @mongo1: and what do you plan to do with ubuntu ?
[10:11] <predaeus> chraso, I had this bug also from time to time, don't know what is causing it (had it with updates and then it was gone again). Maybe that installer supports a command line argument so taht you can select options on the command line.
[10:11] <mongo1> well idk really i guess learn how to use it but i still want to have vista availble for stuff that can't be done in ubuntu... like my zune software and stuff
[10:12] <chraso> nope
[10:12] <pg> My camera does not mount when I plug it in by USB.  My settings in System -> Preferences -> Removable drives and media are set to "Import digital photographs when connected".
[10:12] <chraso> surely its not
[10:12] <Newuserr> mongol: windows is shit sorry but it is true would never use it again
[10:12] <borndeer> @mongo1: now you've installed vista right ?
[10:12] <pg> DEadPuNk: main what?
[10:12] <predaeus> chraso, did you try "./installerproggyname --help"?
[10:12] <r3n0c> omg i fixed my java!!!!
[10:12] <r3n0c> WOOT!
[10:12] <mongo1> borndeer: yes it just completed
[10:13] <nickrud> mongo1, figure out how much you want to keep for windows first, then give around 12gb to root , 2xram up to 2gb for swap, and the rest to home
[10:13] <chraso> yep it says nothing
[10:13] <DEadPuNk> pg yes
[10:14] <r3n0c> peace out all, it is 5:15 am, time to pass out
[10:14] <mongo1> nickrud, well what if i give 90gb to windows and 50gb to ubuntu?
[10:14] <DEadPuNk> i would like to use this color on main : test
[10:14] <MasseR> Sorry no, my mistake, apparently it blew up my partitions somehow. Or rather the UUID
[10:14] <DEadPuNk> i would like it to be permanent
[10:14] <mongo1> nickrud: that should leave roughly 9gb for swap
[10:14] <Newuserr> r3n0c: lol u said that already half an hour ago
[10:14] <r3n0c> Newuserr,  lol said which
[10:14] <serenityUK> ;.quit
[10:14] <pg> DEadPuNk: I don't understand what you want to do with colors.  What is "main"?
[10:14] <MasseR> VFS: Cannot open root device "UUID=
[10:14] <r3n0c> Newuserr,  i THOUGHT i got java to work, but it lied to me
[10:14] <serenityUK> lol
[10:14] <MasseR> etc
[10:15] <MasseR> Or unknown-block(0,0)
[10:15] <nickrud> mongo1, mongo1 no, swap shouldn't be more than 2gb, so 12 for root, and that leaves 36 for home
[10:15] <savvis00> pg try this for the camera, see if its detected: lsusb
[10:15] <Newuserr> r3n0c: u would go sleeping :)),
[10:15] <DEadPuNk> main= is where am writing right now

[10:15] <MasseR> I just mounted the partition on aa livecd so it works
[10:15] <r3n0c> Newuserr,  lol well i was gonna, but i couldn't update my comp... b/c of java, but now it works so i'm gonna pass out
[10:15] <predaeus> chraso, try installing xfonts-xxxx packages
[10:15] <MasseR> But grub can't mount it
[10:15] <r3n0c> happy holidays all
[10:15] <Newuserr> r3n0c: java doesnt work strange?
[10:15] <DEadPuNk> pg: i need to use colors to chat on another irc server
[10:15] <r3n0c> java wanted me to manually install the sun-java6-docs
[10:16] <Newuserr> r3n0c: yeah wish you too good night
[10:16] <chraso> ok will try
[10:16] <DEadPuNk> there anyone use a color to chat
[10:16] <chraso> have to reboot
[10:16] <MasseR> How can I fix it? Or check the UUID?
[10:16] <mongo1> nickrud, so 90gb for vista, 57gb for ubuntu gusty, and 2gb for swap = 149gb total ?
[10:16] <chraso> because of my agere sv92pp and moto sm56pci win modems
[10:16] <nickrud> mongo1, my math sucks, yes
[10:17] <pg> savvis00: Yes, it is: "Bus 001 Device 007: ID 04a9:3085 Canon, Inc. PowerShot G5".  And if I manually execute "gnome-volume-manager-gthumb", it allows me to import the photos.  But it does not do it automatically.
[10:17] <chraso> if anyone have drivers please send me the link
[10:17] <mongo1> nickrud, when i downsize the vista partition is it going to mess it up?
[10:17] <chraso> i googled a lot for it, but can't find the best
[10:17] <chraso> working
[10:17] <nickrud> mongo1, but you should break out the ubuntu install into two partitions, one where you mount root "  /  " and the other /home . The first, 12gb is plenty
[10:18] <nickrud> mongo1, on a fresh install, probably not
[10:18] <mongo1> nickrud, im confused by what your saying about the 12gb
[10:18] <savvis00> pg do you have another usb flash disk or something? are they mounted correctly?
[10:18] <pg> Masser: check the UUID with "ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/"
[10:18] <MasseR> pg: Okay, I'll check
[10:19] <nickrud> mongo1, think of /home as the /users dir on vista. Everything else lives on  "  /  "  (root)
[10:19] <Link> hello hello :)
[10:19] <Link> question
[10:19] <predaeus> pg, this is cool didn't know those "new" /dev entries.
[10:19] <nickrud> mongo1, but putting it all in one will work fine, if you're not sure about it
[10:19] <mongo1> nickrud, are you gonna be on for a bit... when i get to the part where i create the partitions i'll just get you to help if so... so i dont screw it up
[10:19] <borndeer> mongo1: you can simply mount root on your 57GB partition
[10:19] <Link> why can't i play HD video on ubuntu?
[10:20] <nickrud> mongo1, how long will you be ?
[10:20] <mongo1> nickrud, idk its 25% done with the cd check

[10:21] <savvis00> pg also I think there was a checkbox to mount automatically in the removable drives and media, check your settings
[10:21] <Link> why can't i play HD video on ubuntu?
[10:21] <kingoftheroots> !hd
[10:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:21] <savvis00> pg ok, unplug your device and plug it in again, then use this command: dmesg

[10:22] <pg> savvis00: I have those settings enabled

[10:22] <MasseR> pg: Shouldn't /dev/hda1 be root (hd0,0) in grub?
[10:22] <mongo1> nickrud, ok i appreciate it ;)
[10:22] <savvis00> pg it should tell you if there is an error while mounting (if it's trying to mount it at all that is)
[10:22] <MasseR> How can it not find it?
[10:22] <kingoftheroots> try mplayer

[10:27] <nickrud> mongo1, nothing like persistence :)
[10:28] <pg> savvis00: thanks

[10:32] <Milotin> anyone can help me
[10:33] <MasseR> pg: Just a default kubuntu installation
[10:33] <predaeus> MasseR, try the autocomplete, it will list partitions and file systems.
[10:33] <Milotin> i guess my system doesn`t recognize my sound card anymore
[10:33] <MasseR> predaeus: 0 is type ext2fs and 4 is filesystem type unknown
[10:33] <kingoftheroots> MasseR, is the disk the / is on set as 1st disk in the bios?
[10:33] <wressle> Hello, I am having troubles getting my microphone to pick up any sound using Ubuntu.The headphones work perfectly, now I just need to get the mic working... any pointers?
[10:34] <mongo1> borndeer: k now i have guided partitioning, help on partitioning, SCSI1 (o,o,o) (sda) - 160.0 GB ATA ST9160821AS, #1 primary 160.0 GB B K ntfs   /media/sda1, Undo changes to partitions, Finish partitioning and write changes to disk, <Go Back>
[10:34] <MasseR> kingoftheroots: Should be, since it started only after I updated kubuntu (new kernel)
[10:34] <kingoftheroots> if so hd(0,x) --  where x is the partiton number.
[10:34] <mongo1> borndeer: the commas note a new line btw
[10:34] <Milotin> anyone ?
[10:35] <predaeus> wressle, what sound card do you have?
[10:35] <wressle> predaeus: I have two, but the one I am using with my headset is the one on my motherboard. Do you need the specs?
[10:36] <wressle> It is identified as HDA Intel in the sound options.
[10:36] <MasseR> So UUID should be the correct one. I checked it by starting a livecd and doing ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/
[10:36] <MasseR> root (hd0,0) should be the correct one
[10:36] <kingoftheroots> you dont need UUID
[10:36] <borndeer> mongo1: which partition did you install  Vista on ?
[10:36] <savvis00> !hda
[10:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hda - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:36] <kingoftheroots> you can put /dev/hdx
[10:36] <MasseR> kingoftheroots: It didn't work with root=/dev/hda1 also
[10:36] <mongo1> borndeer: the only one there
[10:36] <mongo1> borndeer: #1 primary 160.0 GB B K ntfs    /media/sda1
[10:37] <kingoftheroots> have you tested hdb? you know.. ther is a tool called supergrub you can use to fix this.
[10:37] <borndeer> mongo1: so when you tried to install vista ,you installed it on the entire disk ?
[10:37] <predaeus> wressle, try running alsamixer in a terminal and switch to the record tab with the TAB key and select mic for record with the SPACE key (sets a mark on it) you can then quit again with ESC. Or did you try setting the mic with gnome options already?
[10:37] <MasseR> kingoftheroots: It shouldn't change from hda to hdb unless there's something wrong in the kernel, right?
[10:38] <mongo1> borndeer: yup
[10:38] <mongo1> borndeer: that not a good thing? someone told me to and then i can resize it later
[10:38] <kingoftheroots> right'
[10:38] <wressle> predaus, thats the thing. I have "Capture, Capture, Digital" under the Recording option in alsamixer. Something is missing :)
[10:38] <savvis00> wressle: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gutsy_Intel_HD_Audio_Controller https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[10:38] <MasseR> Oh well I'l do a fresh install :). Not too big a trouble
[10:38] <wressle> savvis00: Thanks!
[10:39] <borndeer> mongo1: you can resize it but that may do harm to your vista . I'm not sure .
[10:39] <mongo1> :o
[10:39] <mongo1> borndeer: so what do we do?
[10:39] <ciphercast> hey guys
[10:39] <anquietas> Ok.
[10:39] <savvis00> wressle: i must warn you though, the fix they provide doesn't work all the time :(
[10:40] <ciphercast> trying to build a ubuntu kernel, and have a question about make menuconfig
[10:40] <kingoftheroots> MasseR,  if you take away the UUID part in fstab and also in menu.1st file and replace that with /dev/path- i have to do that after i upgraded to<IP_ADDRESS>
[10:40] <anquietas> The trouble is that Ubuntu fails to recognize my IDE Controller.
[10:40] <kingoftheroots> erm.. take it away
[10:40] <savvis00> wressle: I meant everytime, not all the time
[10:40] <anquietas> Therefore it can't find my second (IDE) HDD.
[10:40] <wressle> savvis00: Ah, okey. Well, sound works just fine it is just the recording part the I have issues with.
[10:40] <MasseR> kingoftheroots: Hmm.. True I didn't check the fstab yet
[10:40]  * membrive saluda
[10:40] <wressle> So I cant yell on my clan mates whilst playing QuakeWorld, my only problem right now since I've switched from Windows.
[10:41] <ciphercast> I need to enable agpgart, but in 2.6.20+ kernels you have to compile it in, how do I do that w/o using make menuconfig
[10:41] <jbraddoc> how can I limit where an ssh user can go?
[10:42] <savvis00> jbraddoc: chroot maybe? not sure, never tried it
[10:42] <ciphercast> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[10:42] <borndeer> mongo1: we get some trouble .  you may use some windows app such as PartitionMagic to resize your partition . see : http://www.symantec.com/norton/products/overview.jsp?pcid=sp&pvid=pm80
[10:42] <jbraddoc> chroot? hrm
[10:42] <kingoftheroots> ciphercast,   edit /usr/src/linux/.config  and recompile
[10:42] <ciphercast> that's the doc i'm going off of
[10:42] <mongo1> borndeer: i need a free program though :(
[10:42] <DEadPuNk> anyone help me to install the last version of xchat
[10:42] <HymnToLife> jbraddoc: google for rssh
[10:42] <ciphercast> kingoftheroots: will do
[10:43] <Tmo85> can anyone help me install nvidia drivers offline with envy?
[10:43] <Tmo85> im having some trouble
[10:43] <savvis00> jbraddoc: yeah, i think it makes a "fixed" access for a user to specific directories
[10:43] <HymnToLife> Tmo85: I can help you install them, but not with envy
[10:43] <B-rabbit> jbraddoc, http://www.howtoforge.com/chrooted_ssh_howto_debian
[10:43] <Pir8> Anyone recommend a tv tuner card that works well with ubuntu/linux ?
[10:43] <pg> MosseR: do you have your grub root set correctly? "root hd0,0" or whatever grub completes?
[10:44] <kingoftheroots> Pir8, pvr cards
[10:44] <Pir8> yes sir.
[10:44] <mongo1> borndeer: will this work http://vistarewired.com/2007/02/16/how-to-resize-a-partition-in-windows-vista/ or no because it can't edit a active partition
[10:44] <kingoftheroots> Pir8, most of them will work
[10:44] <borndeer> mongo1; It's only safe to resize a blank partition , as far as I know .
[10:44] <Pir8> ok
[10:44] <mongo1> hmm
[10:44] <mongo1> so what do i dooze :(
[10:45] <jbraddoc> I need a bigger screen
[10:45] <jbraddoc> :P
[10:45] <savvis00> mongo1 you have a lot of paid options, like symantec partitiomagic, it's pretty stable if you ask me
[10:45] <mongo1> i have no monies! its christmas! ouch
[10:46] <berna> irc://irc.worldwideirc.net/mp3-hq
[10:46] <mongo1> savvis00, buy it and gift wrap it to me
[10:46] <ciphercast> kingoftheroots: that file doesn't exist in the source branch
[10:46] <borndeer> mongo1: sorry I'm not familiar with vista , but you can try out that method .
[10:46] <savvis00> mongo1 i won't forget :p
[10:46] <kingoftheroots> wot? you haven compiled at all?
[10:46] <Tmo85> HmynToLife how would u suggest i install the drivers?
[10:46] <kingoftheroots> ciphercast, make oldconfig then
[10:47] <pg> mongo1: if already have data on your Vista partition, you can copy it to another disk, partition and possibly re-install vista and copy your data
[10:47] <kingoftheroots> then see of its the,, PS. its a hidden file
[10:47] <pg> mongo1: if you don't have data, just resize the partition and reinstall Vista if you have to
[10:47] <kingoftheroots> .config
[10:47] <ciphercast> kingoftheroots: yeah, I know its hidden, but the linux folder wasn't even there
[10:48] <jbraddoc> ugh im lost :/ heh but thanks yall
[10:48] <savvis00> jbraddoc they gave you a nice tutorial for what you asked :)
[10:48] <kingoftheroots> you dont got the source :0. try using the incuding kernel and modprobe agpart or whatever its called
[10:48] <pg> how can I make ndiswrapper module be inserted and hdclient run automatically when I boot?
[10:49] <pg> that is, if my wireless card is in the slot when I boot
[10:49] <savvis00> pg hm.. in sessions window?
[10:49] <mongo1> borndeer: looks like this'll work
[10:49] <jbraddoc> I know lol i got lost though, i am gonna read over it again.
[10:49] <Tmo85> HmynToLife: Are you there?
[10:49] <jbraddoc> I was hoping it was going to be something simple lol
[10:50] <predaeus> pg, if that is a kernel module you can let it load on boot by entering it into /etc/modules
[10:50] <mongo1> whats 100gb in mb? 100000 ?
[10:50] <jbraddoc> but thanks savvis00, HymnToLife and B-rabbit
[10:50] <sergey> who can help me adding russian local ?
[10:51] <savvis00> sergey #ubuntu-ru or from the menu: system -> administration -> languages
[10:51] <borndeer> mongo1: ok , first resize your partition under vista , then boot with your liveCD
[10:51] <pg> phaedrus: yes ndiswrapper is a kernel module, but I don't want to insert it if the removable card is not there.  Ideally, it should be inserted when I insert the card into the pcmcia slot
[10:51] <mongo1> ya i just gotta do some math 1 sec
[10:52] <sergey> savvis00, thks ..
[10:53] <mongo1> wow, vista rocks
[10:53] <predaeus> pg, sorry I don't know how to do that, but I think it will not do harm if loaded without the hardware available, maybe it won't be loaded or will jsut not be used.
[10:53] <mongo1> thats nuts it did that so easily
[10:53] <mongo1> borndeer: ok so now vista is 98.36GB and 50.68GB is unallocated
[10:53] <Alloosh> hi, I just installed some programs with wine, where can I see them ?
[10:54] <wressle> Alloosh: If you're running metacity and Gnome they show up under "applications->wine"
[10:54] <pjeide> Alloosh: or ~/.wine/c_drive/Program Files/
[10:54] <borndeer> mongo1: All right , now you can reboot
[10:54] <TheK> Uj #wikipedia-de-rc
[10:54] <TheK> oops
[10:55] <pg> phaedrus: thanks for trying. You may be able to show your prowess with several other things I need to fix on this box :P
[10:55] <mongo1> borndeer: whew that was too close :D
[10:55] <pjeide> Alloosh: Or in KDE, K->Wine->Programs
[10:56] <borndeer> mongo1: what was close ?
[10:56] <yubwyub> hi!
[10:56] <chazco> Hi... if I manually install Flash will it break future updates?
[10:57] <yubwyub> do anyone know an iso-editing program? so I can just replace one of the files in an iso before I burn it to disk
[10:57] <mongo1> borndeer: almost had to reformat and do another install :)
[10:57] <omar> oke sorry guys
[10:58] <chazco> yubwyub - Mount it as loopback
[10:58] <savvis00> chazco depends, if you're installing it on a 32-bit mozilla firefox and a 64-bit operating system, then yes, probably
[10:58] <chazco> Afaik everything on this PC is 32bit
[10:58] <mongo1> borndeer: K rdy to do the partitions...
[10:58] <chazco> But i need Flash to be able to take the MCQ for uni
[10:58] <mongo1> we have 54.4 GB to work with
[10:58] <yubwyub> chazco, aha... ok how do I do that?
[10:58] <mongo1> borndeer, what should we cut the 54.4 GB into?
[10:59] <savvis00> chazco then you're good to go, but why manual update? flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work?
[10:59] <chazco> Nope, the flash plugin is brpoken
[10:59] <chazco> See the channel topic even :D
[10:59] <savvis00> chazco --reinstall ? :)
[10:59] <borndeer> mongo1: 2GB for swap , and the left 52.4GB for root
[10:59] <mongo1> but what was nickrud talking about with the 12gb?
[10:59] <savvis00> chazco oops :p thank god i haven't updated yet heh
[11:00] <chazco> heh, this is a fresh install (on all my PC's), so i lost Flash
[11:00] <mongo1> is the swap primary or logical?
[11:00] <omar> primary
[11:01] <savvis00> chazco you could get an older version i think and downgrade the package
[11:01] <chazco> Not sure... it currently thinks that Flash9 is installed, but it isnt
[11:01] <mongo1> swap should be at beginning or end of partiton?
[11:02] <borndeer> mongo1: beginning
[11:02] <Robert_Cozier> hey guys I'm in a bit of trouble at the moment with Ubuntu, I've got a HAL initialization failure and an issue connecting to the internet via direct cable or wireless... can someone help me in the right direction?
[11:03] <savvis00> chazco https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/i386/flashplugin-nonfree - you can browse through the releases here
[11:03] <Fracture> hey, my sound doesnt work on ubuntu. Im not sure whether my sound card is supported. if it isnt is there any way of getting sound on ubuntu?
[11:03] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, please describe the failure and post the error message
[11:04] <savvis00> chazco, try this one: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9946673/flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>.2%2Breally0ubuntu12_i386.deb
[11:04] <jimqode> Fracture, what is your sound card?
[11:04] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode - the error message says that HAL failed to initialise (nothing specific), and it occurs on startup
[11:04] <Fracture> Audio device : intel corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
[11:04] <savvis00> chazco download it and then double click on the file to install it
[11:04] <chazco> savageone - looking at them now... still a little worried that they may break future updates
[11:04] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode - and the network problem isn't giving me any clues either
[11:04] <Robert_Cozier> i got dbus working
[11:04] <Jonesy88> hey
[11:04] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, what is the problem that you are having?
[11:04] <savvis00> Fracture: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gutsy_Intel_HD_Audio_Controller https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[11:05] <Jonesy88> I have a problem with ubuntu, wireless internet not working, please help! :P
[11:05] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode, i said i had two problems with ubuntu, one is that ths HAL error comes up, and meanwhile there is no network connectivity
[11:05] <savvis00> chazco a package won't break a package :)
[11:05] <Robert_Cozier> ... and btw this is a different pc
[11:05] <chazco> Its happened to me before
[11:06] <savvis00> chazco yeah but i gave you the older version that was working
[11:06] <Robert_Cozier> chazco was that directed at me?
[11:06] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, what does ifconfig say? is there a network device like eth0 on output?
[11:06] <mongo1> borndeer: does the swap have bootable flag on or off
[11:06] <Robert_Cozier> oh ok
[11:06] <mongo1> ?
[11:06] <borndeer> mongo1: off
[11:07] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode - i't's only got lo - link encap: local loopback
[11:07] <Robert_Cozier> the wlan used to be there
[11:07] <chazco> savvis00 - i think the older packages are broken (since they download from adobe)
[11:07] <Robert_Cozier> and eth0

[11:08] <Robert_Cozier> like i said the pc doesn't have any connectivity at the moment
[11:08] <mongo1> borndeer: is that primary or logical partition?
[11:08] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, you can transport it to another computer with a usb disk or something
[11:08] <Robert_Cozier> hmm jumqode, good point brb
[11:09] <borndeer> mongo1: primary will work fine .
[11:09] <corruptionoflulz> jimqode: thanks

[11:11] <Milotin> anyone can help me with a soundcard problem on Ubuntu 7.10
[11:12] <Milotin> ?
[11:12] <jimqode> corruptionoflulz, it is a console program, not a gui one
[11:12] <borndeer> ushimitsudoki: you can run the command ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[11:12] <jimqode> corruptionoflulz, this might help you: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tip/16524.html
[11:13] <corruptionoflulz> jimqode: thanks
[11:13] <mongo1> borndeer: you get the msges?
[11:14] <borndeer> mongo1: not yet . paste to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[11:14] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode - i'm sorry i'm having trouble mounting the silly things on the other laptop
[11:14] <mongo1> k
[11:14] <Robert_Cozier> *USB disks
[11:14] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, could you check the dmesg output for anything that might be related to network devices then?
[11:14]  * elektronik123 Wesolych Swiat
[11:14] <ushimitsudoki> borndeer: Thank you! I will read up on that!
[11:15] <elektronik123> i have block on #ubuntu-pl
[11:15] <elektronik123> why ?
[11:16] <mongo1> borndeer: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49271/ tell me if thats what the settings should be for "/"
[11:16] <elektronik123> what doing
[11:16] <elektronik123> ?
[11:17] <elektronik123> Nie można dołączyć do #ubuntu-pl (Zostałeś zablokowany).
[11:17] <Flannel> elektronik123: You'll need to ask them.  This channel's ops aren't affiliated with theirs.  `/msg chanserv access #ubuntu-pl list` for a list of people you could try querying
[11:17] <elektronik123> i can`t join
[11:17] <borndeer> mongo1: turn the bootable flag on .
[11:17] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode there are a few lines that are like "r8169: eth0: link up"
[11:18] <Flannel> elektronik123: you'll need to /msg them
[11:18] <mongo1> borndeer: that the only thing that needs to be changed?
[11:18] <borndeer> mongo1: yeah , at this moment .
[11:19] <Tyczek> elektronik123 have ban there... he is messing channel
[11:19] <mongo1> borndeer: "/home" is primary?
[11:19] <yubwyub> so mounting iso-files in linux would be writing somthing like   mount blablablabla.iso
[11:19] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, can you try this: ifconfig eth0 up
[11:19] <Flannel> !iso | yubwyub
[11:19] <ubotu> yubwyub: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[11:20] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, then look at the output of "ifconfig" once again to see if eth0 did come up
[11:20] <mongo1> borndeer: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49272/ is that what "/home" is supposed to be?
[11:21] <Robert_Cozier> jumqode, said "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Permission denied" without the sudo, and did nothing when i put sudo infront of it.
[11:21] <Robert_Cozier> hay jimqode...
[11:21] <borndeer> mongo1: logical , I think .
[11:21] <Robert_Cozier> i just went fdisk -l and the output looks screwed
[11:21] <corruptionoflulz> jimqode: sorry to bother you, but i can't seem to get the mogrify command to work
[11:21] <jimqode> corruptionoflulz, why not? what is the error you get?
[11:21] <delfick> hello, I've reinstalled ubuntu on my laptop (for various reasons) and now the network manager hates me. It used to work perfectly, but now when I try to connect and use my WPA personal password, the "login to Network" button is greyed out, so no matter what I do I can't connect.....
[11:21] <mongo1> borndeer: think!?
[11:21] <corruptionoflulz> jimqode: it's saying no such file or directory
[11:21] <mongo1> borndeer: :) how can we be sure
[11:21] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode, i remember reading something that HAL had something to do with this file
[11:22] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, what does output of "ifconfig" say now? does it say anything about eth0?
[11:22] <borndeer> mongo1: I'm sure ,:P
[11:22] <corruptionoflulz> jimqode: mogrify: unable to open image `*.jpg': No such file or directory.
[11:22] <Robert_Cozier> no jimqode
[11:22] <Milotin> anyone can help me with a soundcard problem on Ubuntu 7.10
[11:22] <borndeer> mongo1: you can only have at most 4 primary partitions .
[11:22] <mongo1> borndeer: well what about the settings in the paste bin ?
[11:23] <mongo1> k
[11:23] <borndeer> mongo1: that's fine . go ahead .
[11:23] <jimqode> corruptionoflulz, you have to be in the directory with the images you want to resize. if they are not in jpg format change the command to something like *.png or *.gif
[11:23] <mongo1> bootable flag should be off?
[11:23] <jimqode> !ask | Milotin
[11:23] <ubotu> Milotin: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:23] <borndeer> yes ,
[11:23] <mongo1> k
[11:23] <corruptionoflulz> jimqode: am in the directory with the files, and they are all .jpgs =/
[11:23] <mongo1> btw whats the reserved blocks thing?
[11:23] <Milotin> ok :) if you say so ... Why doesn`t my soundcard works :)
[11:23] <Milotin> ?
[11:24] <Jordan_U> Milotin, What model sound card?
[11:24] <jimqode> corruptionoflulz, are you sure they end with .jpg as extension? and not .jpeg or something?
[11:24] <Slart> corruptionoflulz: make sure they are named .jpg and not .JPG .. my digital camera makes everything caps..
[11:24] <Jordan_U> Milotin, ( If you don't know try "asoundconf list" )
[11:24] <jimqode> corruptionoflulz, and yes what Slart says. unix filenames are case sensitive :)
[11:24] <delfick> anyone ever heard of the "login to network" button being greyed out for the network manager dialog ?? :D
[11:24] <Milotin> Card: HDA VIA VT82xx                                                         │

[11:25] <corruptionoflulz> Slart: thanks, apparently mine are caps too, hadn't thought of that ><
[11:25] <corruptionoflulz> Slart: jimqode thanks, got it going now.
[11:26] <corruptionoflulz> 2592 x 1944 isn't exactly kind on bandwidth.
[11:26] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, does /var/log/syslog provide a clue to the hal problem?
[11:26] <delfick> hmm, found my problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=920244#post920244
[11:27] <delfick> weird, my password is less than that
[11:27] <delfick> ...
[11:27] <mongo1> borndeer: this what its supposed to look like? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49273/
[11:27] <Vorbote> Milotin: if you do a "lsmod | grep snd" does the snd_via<whatever> show somewhere?
[11:27] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode it's empty
[11:27] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode soz
[11:27] <Robert_Cozier> no it's not :p
[11:28] <borndeer> mongo1:ok , that works
[11:28] <mongo1> borndeer: swap doesn't need any /'s ?
[11:29] <nono_> I could say someone any program that allows me to record video with the webcam and on the other hand to record the sound and mount video? Thanks
[11:29] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode; it's got tis - dhclientL DHCPRELEASE on eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67?
[11:29] <Alloos1> hi, I have mounted a new hard drive, the new hard drive has XP installed, can I boot XP while iam on ubuntu?
[11:29] <borndeer> mongo1: yes ,
[11:29] <Robert_Cozier> and some mark after that
[11:29] <Robert_Cozier> " -- mark -- "
[11:29] <mongo1> borndeer: then what it should be /swap ?
[11:29] <anquietas> Hm. It simply doesn't work. My IDE controller can't be recognized, hence nor my IDE HDD. I don't see any errors in dmesg, fdisk -l doesn't list the HDD, only the SCSI drives, and the device manager doesn't list anything either.
[11:29] <kakoonia> Hey everyone.. i updated my kernel through the available updates list of Synpatics pm.. and now theres no sound. my sound card no longer appears in the sound properties device list, and i dont know how to load it back again.. can someone help me out? i have a lenovo 3000 n100 0768-59g laptop, with some kind of AC97 high definition audio card.. Help?
[11:31] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, hmm your network card seems to be working, it just isn't configured. You can be having difficulties with configuring it because of the hal problem. also mounting usb disk didn't work because of hal. There ma be a problem hardware on your system.
[11:31] <borndeer> mongo1: swap is out of your filesystem
[11:31] <mongo1> k
[11:31] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, some dvdrom act weird
[11:31] <mongo1> so i leave it swap
[11:31] <mongo1> good
[11:31] <borndeer> yeah
[11:31] <Robert_Cozier> mmm that's true the dvdrom hasn't been working very well recently
[11:31] <mongo1> ty so much ! :D
[11:31] <Robert_Cozier> is that a driver error or a physical problem?
[11:31] <borndeer> swap is used for additional memory .
[11:32] <Vorbote> Hmmm... I remember there was an alsa related upgrade some months back that required reconfiguring the card and mixer. The postinstall script gave in fact a message with the needed command but I can't recall it (and the system I'm using presently doesn't use alsa, so I can't check...)
[11:32] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, try disconnecting the dvdrom and rebooting. if it solves the problem this is a known issue with some dvd-roms and can be fixed with a firmware update to your dvd-rom
[11:32] <mongo1> why it never more than 2gb?
[11:32] <shawn> Hello, I'm trying to connect my laptop to an Insignia NS-15LCD TV using a VGA cable, but it does not seem to work; any help would be greatly appreciated :)
[11:32] <hairulfr> Hey all, anyone remember what the function in Compiz-F is called, that makes windows sticky? Ceers
[11:33] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode ... oh - it's a HP dv6000 tho, is it likely they'll have the firmware?
[11:33] <jimqode> shawn, maybe the resolution?
[11:33] <borndeer> mongo1: well, that's not exactly true .
[11:33] <Robert_Cozier> and jimqode did you mean physically take it out of the laptop?
[11:33] <mongo1> borndeer: nickrud said not to make it more than 2g
[11:34] <shawn> jimqode, possibly, I just tried extending default screen instead of mirroring and I got a grey screen on the TV so it's a start I suppose
[11:34] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, oh it's a laptop? if you can take it out easily try that. if you can't look for a firmware update on hp website support section
[11:34] <W1ZrD> I tried upgrading fglrx and now only 2d works as I can't seem to unload 'ati', could anyone help?
[11:34] <ibou> hi
[11:34] <decideci> hello! is the "console-setup" file the only way to change the font in the TTY? i am having problems with finding the right tty font for nethack. it plays great in a terminal window but is garbled in TTY1-6 :(
[11:34] <jimqode> shawn, if you want to mirror first change your resolution to one supported by your tv. then mirror it.
[11:34] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode is it easy to install firmware?
[11:35] <borndeer> mongo1: I know ,  usually 2GB will suffice .
[11:35] <idefix> if I run a bin file without sudo it says no permission, with sudo it says it can't find it.. this seems a bit strange,
[11:35] <mongo1> borndeer: k
[11:35] <shawn> I just got "Input not Supported" on the TV
[11:35] <B-rabbit> idefix, what do you mean?
[11:35] <borndeer> mongo1: How much is your memory ?
[11:36] <mongo1> borndeer: 2gb
[11:36] <idefix> a bin file is like an executable, right? so I run it preceded with ./ and I get 'no permision' with sudo I get 'can't find the file'
[11:36] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, you will probably need windows for that. but it should be a small windows executable file, so it should be fairly easy
[11:36] <Flannel> idefix: try the full path
[11:36] <borndeer> mongo1: well that's truly enough for run ubuntu !
[11:36] <jimqode> idefix, chmod a+x filename
[11:36] <Robert_Cozier> got wine :p
[11:37] <mongo1> borndeer: sweet
[11:37] <BernardB> idefix, nice name :-)
[11:37] <mongo1> borndeer:what do i do if my setup intallation stays at ^%?
[11:37] <Robert_Cozier> bah this is working out to be more troublesome than i ever bargained for...
[11:37] <mongo1> err 6%
[11:37] <B-rabbit> idefix, go in to int /bin directory the run the executable
[11:37] <idefix> B-rabbit, should I move the file to the bin dir?
[11:38] <idefix> thx BernardB
[11:38] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, hp laptops don't work too well with linux. sorry for you... Buy a dell next time ;)
[11:38] <idefix> hey, is it cold where you're at now too?
[11:38] <B-rabbit> idefix, open a terminal and type 'cd /bin'
[11:39] <B-rabbit> idefix, and then run the executable
[11:39] <Robert_Cozier> ohh well... thks anyways
[11:39] <B-rabbit> ./
[11:39] <mongo1> Robert_Cozier: buy one of dose EEE laptops!
[11:40] <elektronik123> how get list of users on the chanell

[11:40] <firestorm> Hi there. Am trying to get bluetooth working with my ubuntu 7.10 machine. I have the loaded modules (bluetooth,rfcomm,l2cap,mmc_block,sdhci,mmc_core) and dmesg | grep -i bluetooth shows that the core, hci, l2cap and rfcomm layers have been initialised. However, I do not have a /dev/hci0 device. Any pointers?

[11:44] <B-rabbit> szczurek, ????
[11:44] <idefix> the chmod a+x
[11:44] <anquietas> B-rabbit, he looks for a channel about "egroupware"... whatever it is.
[11:44] <Flannel> perfector: #kubuntu
[11:44] <szczurek> szczurek ist polnisch ...
[11:44] <Slart> idefix: ah... ok. thanks

[11:45] <jimqode> firestorm, hmm i don't know. nautilus with an obex address i suppose
[11:45] <hums> anquietas: try running fdisk
[11:46] <szczurek> egw is a collaboration software like sharepoint
[11:46] <B-rabbit> Fracture, try doing it as "root"
[11:46] <szczurek> it works fantastic under ubuntu
[11:47] <bookershouse> I just went through the website - I am not seeing, I heard that ubuntu was good for laptops is this true?  Does it support things like my capture stick? Will it support my SD reader?
[11:47] <firestorm> jimqode: commands like 'hciconfig hci0' say "no such device" which is confirmed by an ls /dev/ showing hci0 to not exist
[11:47] <Fracture> when i try to login as root
[11:47] <Fracture> says
[11:47] <`TyraeL^aw> seek team pv me :)
[11:48] <Fracture> the system admin isnt allowed to login from this creen
[11:48] <Fracture> screen*
[11:48] <Fracture> o lol
[11:48] <Fracture> i need to login from console
[11:48] <hairulfr> Fracture: When using sudo?
[11:48] <jimqode> firestorm, are you using a bt dongle or a a builtin bt card?
[11:48] <ploom> when using ubuntu, no need to log in as root
[11:49] <yaya> ciao belli
[11:49] <firestorm> jimqode: built-in bt card
[11:49] <Fracture> im in root now
[11:49] <Fracture> but how can i be logged into root
[11:49] <Fracture> on the desktop?
[11:49] <kieran> when using metacity as a compositing manager, how do you change the background colour?
[11:49] <Jonesy88> hey I have internet working on ubuntu, but cannot update or download updates from the repositories, any ideas?
[11:49] <borndeer> mongo1: everything goes fine ?
[11:50] <hairulfr> Fracture: You're not supposed to, really. And imo it's not a good idea
[11:50] <kakoonia> I updated my kernel through the available updates list of Synpatics pm.. and now theres no sound. my sound card no longer appears in the sound properties device list, and i dont know how to load it back again.. can someone help me out? i have a lenovo 3000 n100 0768-59g laptop, with some kind of AC97 high definition audio card.. Help?
[11:50] <jimqode> firestorm, can you turn it on/off using a button? if so turn it off then on again and see the output in dmesg to see if it is claimed by hal
[11:50] <Fracture> then how can i put files in my filesystem
[11:50] <Fracture> i need to badly
[11:50] <hums> fracture: gksudo nautilus
[11:50] <Fracture> unless some1 else can show me a way of updating ALSA from 1.0.14 to 1.0.15
[11:51] <borndeer> Jonesy88: maybe your system is up-to-date .
[11:51] <jimqode> Fracture, login with your normal user then type "sudo su"
[11:51] <Fracture> ye
[11:51] <Fracture> ive dont that
[11:51] <Flannel> Nooooo.  sudo -i
[11:51] <B-rabbit> Fracture, if you really want to login a root graphically(which i do not recommend) you have to enable the "allow local system administrator login" in the system> administration>login window in the security tab
[11:51] <B-rabbit> or u could just use sudo
[11:51] <Fracture> yea
[11:51] <Fracture> ive done sudo in console
[11:52] <iamarto> how can I make set -o vi work in my .profile?
[11:52] <jimqode> Fracture, why do you want to login to desktop as root? it is not recommended
[11:52] <Fracture> well
[11:52] <firestorm> jimqode: the key sequence is for BT and wireless...dmesg shows wireless go off/on but nothing around BT when toggling the key sequence
[11:52] <Fracture> i cant with my main user change my filesystem
[11:53] <Fracture> when it says im admin
[11:53] <Fracture> because i wnt to update ALSA
[11:53] <vincenz> I installed ubuntu 6.06 LTS from livecd, how do I upgrade to gutsy?
[11:53]  * vincenz replaced his sources.list
[11:53] <iamarto> anybody knows how can I make set -o vi work in my .profile?
[11:53] <Flannel> vincenz: No, you can't upgrade straight to gutsy
[11:53]  * vincenz groans loudly
[11:53] <Flannel> vincenz: If its freshly installed, why not just install Gutsy?
[11:54]  * vincenz kicks the nearest person
[11:54] <Flannel> vincenz: You'll be able to upgrade straight to Hardy though
[11:54] <vincenz> I'm getting seriously pissed
[11:54]  * vincenz first debootstrapps and installs gutsy straight, the swaps hds, but noone can tell him how to set up grub and they tell him to use the livecd.  Frustrated after N reboots, I use the livecd to install, and now I have LTS...
[11:54] <Gorax> x
[11:54] <jimqode> firestorm, were bluetooth kernel modules loaded beforehand? if you you may need to rmmod them or restart the computer with bluetooth turned of to see a message on dmesg
[11:55] <Flannel> !grub | vincenz
[11:55] <ubotu> vincenz: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:55] <B-rabbit> Flannel, isn't there an upgrade option in the upgrade manager
[11:55] <Flannel> vincenz: first link there explains how to setup grub.
[11:55] <B-rabbit> to upgrade from feasty to gusty
[11:55] <Flannel> vincenz: If you have config questions, I can help with those as well
[11:55] <Milotin> can someone tell why all my sounds application blocks after i change the first song played ?
[11:55] <Flannel> B-rabbit: right, feisty to gutsy, not deapper to gutsy.
[11:55] <B-rabbit> o rite
[11:55] <B-rabbit> :S
[11:55] <Flannel> dapper to gutsy would be dapper > edgy > feisty > gutsy
[11:55] <jimqode> vincenz, you can upgrade directly, you have to upgrade to all inbetween versions
[11:55] <firestorm> jimqode: kernel drivers were loaded...ok turned off via key sequence and rebooted machine. will let ya know in a minute or so
[11:55] <vincenz> o
[11:56] <hums> Scanning liveCD, it says wubi-cdboot.exe has trojan-generic. That appears scary. Should I trust the antivirus?
[11:56] <jimqode> firestorm, ok. i'll be here
[11:56] <vincenz> so replace all gutsy by edgy? then upgrade, then replace all edgy by feisty?
[11:56] <Flannel> vincenz: no.  Use update-manager
[11:56] <Flannel> !upgrade | vincenz
[11:56] <ubotu> vincenz: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:56] <mongo1> i just got through installing ubuntu 7.10 and its at the orange loading bar screen... but its stopped at about 15%
[11:57] <mongo1> how can i get it going?
[11:57] <B-rabbit> Fracture, were u able to solve ur problem?
[11:57] <Flannel> mongo1: How long has it been there?
[11:57] <mongo1> bout 5mins
[11:58] <mongo1> there some butt ons i can press to get it movin?
[11:58] <B-rabbit> mongo1, no u just have to wait
[11:58] <Flannel> mongo1: If it has any errors, it'll let you know, drop down into a textmode with diagnostics.  Unless of course its actually frozen.  If you want to drop yourself into the text mode anyway (to see what its doing at least), you can hit ctrl-alt-f2 and that ought to bring you there
[11:58] <vincenz> Flannel: alright, thanks
[11:58] <B-rabbit> mongo1, how much memory do you have?
[11:58] <mongo1> 2gb
[11:58] <B-rabbit> in ur pc
[11:58] <B-rabbit> it should be fine
[11:58] <mongo1> i hit alt f2 and nothing
[11:59] <Flannel> mongo1: ctrl-alt-f2
[11:59] <mongo1> ya thats what i meant
[11:59] <mongo1> should i restart the computer?
[11:59] <borndeer> mongo1: no , you'd better not
[11:59] <B-rabbit> mongo1,  it will tell u to restart
[11:59] <Milotin> can someone tell why all my sounds application blocks after i change the first song played ??
[11:59] <mongo1> why?
[11:59] <mongo1> i think it is frozen though
[11:59] <ploom> have I got it right, that when I have a rooter (without my own DNS server), then I could rely on netbios to identify and resolve  hosts by name?
[11:59] <lapsus> can someone tell me why xgi is so slow processing gimp?
[12:00] <borndeer> mongo1: wait a bit patiently ,
[12:00] <mongo1> hmm
[12:00] <mongo1> but the  ctrl alt f2 thing didn't bring up the text stuff
[12:00] <mongo1> and its still here at 3 sections of the bar
[12:00] <borndeer> once i waited for about 30 mins to install edubuntu .
[12:00] <B-rabbit> same
[12:01] <mongo1> its past the install... its at the loading screen
[12:01] <B-rabbit> cool man
[12:01] <yubwyub> is it possible to config ubuntus default window manager so I can doubleklick on the ikon in the left corner of the windows?
[12:01] <yubwyub> ..too close the window I mean
[12:02] <chickenFuego> can I get an rss feed for svn/cvs changes for a given project at sourceforge?
[12:02] <drez> where in the system can i find amsn buddy pictures?
[12:03]  * Mikelevel alguno con una qtek s200 o similar?
[12:03] <Milotin> can someone tell why all my sounds application blocks after i change the first song played ??
[12:03] <borndeer> yubwyub: why not just click the 'close' icon ?
[12:04] <yubwyub> I really need the classical windows way to close windows, double click on the windows "system menu" (left corner) My mind is really hardcoded since win2.0 to click there subconciously.....
[12:05] <firestorm> jimqode: key sequence not effecting BT unfortunately
[12:05] <B-rabbit> Milotin, what application r u using?
[12:05] <firestorm> jimqode: have rebooted, kernel modules loaded, still no /dev/hci0 device
[12:05] <Milotin> any
[12:06] <mongo1> borndeer: still at the third block of the loading bar :(
[12:06] <jimqode> firestorm, probably your bluetooth adapter is not supported then. you may want to open a bug report on launchpad
[12:06] <firestorm> jimqode: no problems thanks for your help!
[12:07] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode bah, not i've totally rooed it
[12:07] <hums> Hallo, Kaspersky Internet Security says wubi-cdboot.exe has trojan-generic. My friend wants to try ubuntu using wubi. That report scares him. Should I move on installing wubi or avoid it?
[12:07] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, what happened?
[12:07] <jimcooncat> Is there a good tool I can use to sync up my preferences (~/. files) between work and home over ssh? I need something where I can pick and choose what features I want to import.
[12:07] <Milotin> B-rabbit,  any tips for follow ?
[12:08] <Robert_Cozier> hmm, i read some bad advice about editing the grub menu to disable the use of DVD rom features, and the pc's going all over the shot...
[12:08] <Robert_Cozier> hmmm lol
[12:08] <borndeer> mongo1: any text on the screen ?
[12:08] <aeGIs> can ubuntu do my christmas shopping?
[12:08] <mongo1> nope
[12:08] <mongo1> no response from ctl alt f2 either
[12:08] <yubwyub> ...so if it possible somehow.... perhaps a config-file somewhere, or extraprogram that add mouse-shortcuts something... it is awfull that nothing happens when I doublecklick on windows icon...
[12:08] <jimcooncat> hums, at least check the md5 before running it
[12:09] <borndeer> you are using alternative cd ,right ?
[12:09] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, did you try the NOAPIC kernel option? that might help
[12:09] <hums> jimcooncat: thx
[12:09] <mongo1> borndeer: yes
[12:09] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode, if i remember correctly i installed it with NOAPIC
[12:10] <dolce_punza> Hi all
[12:10] <Robert_Cozier> reckon i could just install the important files again? and still keep the stuff that i need - e.g. documents ect
[12:10] <jimcooncat> hums that would be really nasty for us if someone starts infecting wubi. If you do find you got a corrupted file, please be sure to tell someone.
[12:10] <loadbang> anyone tell me where i can get a live cd version of ubuntu please?
[12:10] <B-rabbit> Milotin, sorr
[12:10] <B-rabbit> y
[12:10] <mongo1> tell the police!
[12:10] <mifritscher> my sstem is hanging while/after starting the kernel logger. what can I do?
[12:11] <poeloq> re
[12:11] <Flannel> loadbang: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu
[12:11] <jimcooncat> the spanish inquisition
[12:11] <tho1> Robert_Cozier I am coming in late on this conversation, but I have in the past reinstalled linux without reformatting and was able to preserve all but a few minor config files
[12:11] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, what is the problem? Did you mess up grub?
[12:11] <mongo1> borndeer: im running the recovery thingy
[12:11] <ibou_> hi
[12:11] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode that is correct i messed up grub
[12:12] <B-rabbit> loadbang, go where Flannel said the download the iso and burn it on to a blank cd
[12:12] <Robert_Cozier> ... and tho1 that sounds optimistic, is there something i can follow step by step
[12:12] <flozza06> i've got a serious problem. i just got a new computer (with msi am2 motherboard) and since the system didn't have a cd/dvd writer preinstalled i bought one (LG H58N) and installed it. now when i boot the comp still gets to the point where grub loads and grub even attempts to start ubuntu, but then the screen turns black and nothing... can anyone help me?
[12:13] <loadbang> Flannel: done that, rebooted on my macbook pro, and the only option i get is to install
[12:13] <tho1> Robert_Cozier if it is just grub....first try 'sudo /usr/sbin/grub-install' and see if it reinstalls the menu.lst...but why not just undo what you did?
[12:13] <mongo1> what do i do if the ubuntu-recovery hangs at " * Loading hardware drivers...                       _" ?
[12:13] <Flannel> loadbang: You didn't get the Desktop Cd, you got the alternate CD then.
[12:13] <loadbang> both desktop and server x86-64 cd's
[12:13] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, this might help: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-24113.html
[12:14] <idefix> can anyone send me a sources.list file that makes my PC access all repos?
[12:14] <Robert_Cozier> tho1 because i dunno how to, it comes up with a command line with 'grub>' as the prompt
[12:14] <Flannel> loadbang: Desktop CDs will give you a liveCD, you can't install from them without booting to a liveCD (or fiddling with kernel parameters)
[12:14] <nono_> Hello, I am installing the cinelerra already run when I said " "cinelerra: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libquicktimehv-1.6.0.so.1: undefined symbol: NeAACDecDecode"" resetting laguien tell me why?
[12:14] <idefix> please?
[12:14] <tho1> Robert_Cozier check the link jimqode put up, and that will give me time to put something into pastebin for you
[12:14] <flozza06> i've got a serious problem. i just got a new computer (with msi am2 motherboard) and since the system didn't have a cd/dvd writer preinstalled i bought one (LG H58N) and installed it. now when i boot the comp still gets to the point where grub loads and grub even attempts to start ubuntu, but then the screen turns black and nothing... can anyone help me?
[12:14] <borndeer> mongo1: I think the recovery only works after you successfully install ubuntu .
[12:14] <Robert_Cozier> k thx tho1
[12:15] <B-rabbit> idefix, wait ill pastebin mine :)
[12:15] <Flannel> LoRez: the first choice on the CD might be "Load or install ubuntu" or something lik that, but it really is a liveCD.
[12:16] <mongo1> borndeer: well i thought i've already installed ubuntu?
[12:16] <mint> hello, does anybody know if gutsy-proposed updates affect to system stability?
[12:16] <B-rabbit> idefix, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49282/
[12:16] <idefix> B-rabbit, thx
[12:17] <tho1> Robert_Cozier this is a text file I have had for quite a while...notes about how to restore grub from the grub prompt. No guarantees...but I have used it successfully in the past. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49281/
[12:17] <loadbang> both desktop and server x86-64 cd's
[12:17] <B-rabbit> idefix, no probs
[12:17] <jimcooncat> Rephrased: Is there a good tool I can use to sync up my firefox preferences between work and home?
[12:17] <Flannel> loadbang: the first choice on the CD might be "Load or install ubuntu" or something lik that, but it really is a liveCD.
[12:18] <Robert_Cozier> tho1 aha :/
[12:18] <tho1> jimcooncat I use grsync to sync folders like pictures and the like, it should work just as well for something smaller like that
[12:18] <loadbang> i ask this as i have an old ubuntu, boot from the cd and it gives an option to go into the desktop
[12:18] <Robert_Cozier> tho how come you gave the title "Windows XP"?
[12:19] <tho1> Robert_Cozier just make sure you get the 'hd(0,0)' part right...that second digit needs to match the partition on your hard drive
[12:19] <Flannel> loadbang: right.  As of 6.06, the LiveCD became the "Desktop CD" which is a liveCD with an installer on teh desktop (through the live session) and the Installation CD became the alternate CD, which still does the same stuff
[12:19] <jimcooncat> tho1: thanks, I think I need something that will let me review what's syncing though
[12:19] <valmir> Hi everybody! I have some weid problem here that maybe some ov you can help. I'm trying to see some video here and the video proper is playing good, but the sound isn't playing. I'm using the spdif in  to get the sound and, althought I can record it (what makes me sure that the hardware is ok) I cant here it directly. Anyone has ideas about it?
[12:20] <tho1> jimcooncat grsync will do that...it has a Simulation button
[12:20] <Robert_Cozier> kk, i'm doing the graphical one that i got the link to earlier atm lol
[12:20] <Robert_Cozier> bt i'll keep it in mind
[12:20] <jimcooncat> tho1: great! sorry to dismiss it so quickly after looking at the screenshot
[12:21] <borndeer> mongo1: ok , can you see the login screen now ?
[12:21] <mongo1> nope
[12:21] <mongo1> just chilling here at 3rd block in loading bar
[12:21] <mongo1> maybe i'll leave it here and go to sleep and check it later
[12:21] <loadbang> I get you Flannel,  I was worried if I choose the installer option i would write/format my hard drive without telling the user.
[12:21] <B-rabbit> valmir, try the application>system tools>Ubuntu device database to check if all your hardware is allrite
[12:22] <borndeer> that's fine and maybe you need to read the wiki first , that may help
[12:22] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode, if my pc's having firmware problems with the DVD playe,r how come it's only happening now?
[12:22] <Flannel> loadbang: Nah, even if you do accidentally start the alternate CD, or the installer on the liveCD, you need to go through a few prompts (including one about partitioning) before you actually touch anything.
[12:23] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, did you use ubuntu or any other linux flavor succesfully before on this pc?
[12:23] <B-rabbit> valmir, or check the advance volume control option
[12:23] <B-rabbit> to see everything allrite
[12:23] <Robert_Cozier> jimqode, nah it was vista actually
[12:24] <Robert_Cozier> had no troubles with it - even now that i've just booted off the disk and following those instructions you gave me
[12:24] <dolce_punza> Hi I am wanting to use a web cam it is a Cyclops dr100
[12:24] <Matic`Makovec> Where could I set the option so the .bash_history saves over 100 lines?
[12:24] <zarac-> how can i get programs to start maximized and on a specific workspace? (gnome / compiz)
[12:24] <dolce_punza> I am running Mint Linux, can anyone please point me in the right direction.
[12:24] <JediMaster> I've got a toshiba a210-17i laptop, and I'm having problems getting the display to dim. the hotkeys actually make the brightness indicator go up and down on screen, but the display itself doesn't change, same when the power is unplugged, any ideas?
[12:24] <B-rabbit> Matic`Makovec, .bashrc
[12:24] <dolce_punza> last night I tried installing the gspca driver without any success.  Any suggestions?
[12:24] <sourcemaker> I have a kernel panic with my WLAN card (Realtek) after I have upgraded my system to gusty. I have found some posts... that there is a kernel problem... this problem should be fixed in kernel <IP_ADDRESS>... how can I update? This kernel is not in apt?
[12:24] <B-rabbit> i belive
[12:24] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, sometimes kernel developers has to choose between implementing a hack for a faulty hardware of firmware and they generally choose not to implement a hack because it will complicate the driver code and upgrading the firmware is the logical way anyway
[12:24] <Matic`Makovec> B-rabbit, thanks
[12:25] <Arelis> err.. guys, i tried installing all those window managers, but with the "Setting up <window manager name here>", i get segmentation faults.. HUH?! This is serious, is my system broken? It returns error code 139, if it helps.
[12:25] <ibou_> i can't hibernate: my screen is shutting down but not my pc. After it's impossible to get back my session without forcing pc shut down and restart. Can someone help me ?

[12:27] <joern> i installed ubuntu and it created a 2,5 gb partition
[12:27] <anquietas> Ok.
[12:27] <ibou_> yes, and ?
[12:27] <anquietas> I ran fdisk.
[12:27] <anquietas> It doesn't show my HDD. =/

[12:28] <Arelis> Guys, i tried installing some window managers, but with the "Setting up <window manager name here>", i get segmentation faults.. HUH?! This is serious, is my system broken? It returns error code 139, if it helps. Anyone?
[12:28] <jimqode> Robert_Cozier, If there is an updated firmware on the internet don't expect a kernel fix, that's what i'm saying :)
[12:28] <anquietas> df
[12:28] <anquietas> Argh.
[12:29] <joern> i tried the partition manager on ubuntu but it doesn't even show the partitions
[12:29] <glick> excuse me is thee any way to play .rm files in ubuntu?
[12:29] <netyire> glick: install real
[12:29] <tho1> glick realplayer
[12:29] <netyire> glick: or you can try mplayer with codecs
[12:29] <netyire> glick: or videolan
[12:29] <glick> can i install that from the repos?
[12:29] <netyire> glick: videolan is  in the repos I think
[12:29] <anquietas> It doesn't show it either, B-rabbit. There is no /dev/... entry for my HDD.
[12:29] <netyire> glick: mplayer (universe or something)
[12:29] <Robert_Cozier> hmm, well i guess its back to windoeeszz :p
[12:30] <netyire> glick: look at the ubuntu pages on codecs
[12:30] <Ahri> i'm trying to install ubuntu on a drive and have chosen the advanced partitioning option - i do not wish to format the root as it's unnessessary. how can i get around this restriction?
[12:30] <Robert_Cozier> i haven't found anything for the HP lapop firmware updates
[12:30] <ibou_> sorry joern i can't help you
[12:30] <tho1> Robert_Cozier course, with vista not all your hardware may work either <smile>. I dumped vista after a week when I discovered it wouldn't support the built in webcam
[12:30] <valmir> B-rabbit, I tried to change every input option in the audio mixer... still no sound at all... but I can alway open the sound recorder and record a few seconds of the IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA device and the sound is there...
[12:30] <Arelis> Guys, i tried installing some window managers, but with the "Setting up <window manager name here>", i get segmentation faults.. HUH?! This is serious, is my system broken? It returns error code 139, if it helps. Anyone?
[12:30] <bullgard4> Where can I find the definition of 'variable indirection'?
[12:31] <Robert_Cozier> .tho1 yeah! lol same here
[12:31] <tho1> Robert_Cozier and you might try another distro. I run suse on my laptop as it supports the hardware better than ubuntu, but use ubuntu on my server for the same reason...go figure
[12:32] <Robert_Cozier> mmm indeed
[12:32] <nono_> Hello, I am installing the cinelerra already run when I said " "cinelerra: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libquicktimehv-1.6.0.so.1: undefined symbol: NeAACDecDecode"" resetting laguien tell me why?
[12:33] <B-rabbit> anquietas, i can't help, haven't been in that kind of situation....sorry man :(
[12:33] <anquietas> B-rabbit, no problem. :) Thanks for trying.
[12:33] <B-rabbit> v:)
[12:33] <B-rabbit> :)
[12:33] <exlibris> Hello!! What laptop brands have hardware that works well with Ubuntu?
[12:34] <Ahri> i don't want to format during ubuntu install, how can i avoid this? i've already taken care to prepare the drive
[12:34] <Malachi> exlibris: I'd go with Dell. They're actually supporting Ubuntu.
[12:34] <Robert_Cozier> tho1 yeah that's true, i always wanted to tryout kde
[12:34] <B-rabbit> valmir, try playing you audio/movie file with a different application. eg VLC
[12:34] <exlibris> Malachi: thanks...
[12:34] <tho1> Robert_Cozier xfce...don't give up control!
[12:34] <Robert_Cozier> i used to have 2006 Mandriva LE or something like that
[12:34] <dolce_punza> I'm wondering whether someone can help me with a webcam driver installation.
[12:35] <Flannel> Ahri: When you get to the partitioning step, you'll mark partitions to be used and not formatted.
[12:35] <dolce_punza> please.
[12:35] <Malachi> exlibris: Try dell.com/ubuntu
[12:35] <tho1> Robert_Cozier I found Suse 10.3 pretty good...they must be getting something out of that agreement with M$
[12:35] <caravel> hi ladies and gentlemen
[12:35] <Ahri> Flannel: that doesn't apply to the root, it won't carry on unless i set the root to be formatted
[12:35] <Robert_Cozier> heh,
[12:35] <Flannel> Ahri: Thats true, because if it doesn't format it, it can't rewrite stuff.  Why exactly don't you want it formatted?
[12:36] <Ahri> because i have lots of stuff on there
[12:36] <Ahri> and it's not true; i'm not interfering with the required file structure
[12:36] <Robert_Cozier> tho1 do you have a HP laptop too?
[12:36] <tho1> Robert_Cozier no...a Toshiba A200
[12:36] <caravel> night freeze under Gutsy (up to date) with an Asus V1S laptop: kern.log here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49280/ Would anyone has any idea please ?

[12:42] <Matrix> '
[12:42] <Ahri> Flannel: the only thing for the ubuntu installer to concern itself with is the "gentoo" directory sat there; there is nothing else in the root of the filesystem
[12:42] <cew_gemini> hoi
[12:42] <eric2087> can anyone here watch youtube videos in ubuntu?
[12:42] <tho1> Matrix in fact, I just checked my server...it is /usr/bin/vncserver
[12:43] <Matrix> arhh nice thank you (im so new i still neede to learn how to configure it
[12:43] <eggroll> B-rabbit.....cntr-alt-F1 didn't do anything
[12:43] <B-rabbit> wat?
[12:43] <Flannel> Ahri: shrink that partition down to roughly the size of the data, then create another partition to use as your /
[12:43] <eric2087> can anyone here watch videos on youtube?
[12:43] <B-rabbit> yer
[12:43] <eric2087> if so, how did u accomplish this?
[12:43] <predaeus> eric2087, yes. did you install flash?
[12:43] <eric2087> yes i did
[12:44] <B-rabbit> eric2087, u have to install the flash plugin
[12:44] <GHOST> hey i
[12:44] <eric2087> it says it wants shockwave and NOT flash
[12:44] <Matrix> what would i do with out this lovely IRC Channel hehe
[12:44] <Malachi> eggroll: How far do you get before you get a blank screen?
[12:44] <predaeus> eric2087, due to a bug it is possible that flashplugin-nonfree did not install properly.
[12:44] <B-rabbit> eric2087, r u using an AMD64?
[12:44] <eric2087> no, intel pentium m
[12:44] <eggroll> malachi: I get what looks like a normal boot....
[12:44] <idefix> I just don't get it man.. it says I can update from 5.10 to dapper etc.. but there's something wrong with my sources.list file
[12:45] <idefix> can anyone check if it has errors?
[12:45] <eggroll> I'm a total newbie so sorry I can't give a better description
[12:45] <idefix> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49283/
[12:45] <Malachi> eggroll: That's fine. So you see the ubuntu loading splash, and then it goes blank?
[12:45] <predaeus> eric2087, enter "about:plugins" in your firefox address bar and hit enter. look for a flash entry.
[12:45] <eric2087> sigh
[12:45] <GHOST> my network icon disapear on my xuubuntu desktop any idea?
[12:45] <eggroll> yep...
[12:45] <eric2087> shockwave is not flash correct? or is that wrong?
[12:45] <Malachi> eggroll: What's your graphics card?
[12:46] <eggroll> actually I'm not sure....
[12:46] <predaeus> eric2087, I don't know about the details. Youtube videos work with the flash plugin.
[12:46] <eggroll> its a koolu machine...
[12:46] <eric2087> ok, thx
[12:46] <eggroll> I can check online...one sec
[12:46] <eric2087> i'll try that
[12:46] <GHOST> my network icon disapear on my xuubuntu desktop any idea?
[12:46] <sidelil> excuse me, how can I connect to a wireless network from a command line system? Thanks
[12:46] <chazco> Hi... is there any way to install the Flash 9 plugin that wont break future updates?
[12:47] <Matrix> How i know which files i neede to configure and whice i can install froM?
[12:47] <tho1> sidelil use 'iwconfig' to configure the wireless side, then use 'ifconfig' to configure the ip side
[12:47] <eggroll> malachi: AMD LX800 integrated graphic
[12:47] <tho1> sidelil or edit the /etc/network/interfaces file manually
[12:48] <eggroll> it worked fine with 7.04
[12:48] <predaeus> chazco, you can download the plugin yourself, untar it and copy the libflashplugin.so (or what it was called) to your /home/yourname/.mozilla/plugins/ folder.
[12:48] <GHOST> hey  my network icon disapear on my xubuntu desktop any idea?
[12:48] <Malachi> eggroll: Okay, boot into recovery mode.
[12:48] <eggroll> ok
[12:48] <predaeus> chazco, and delete it later if not needed anymore
[12:48] <chazco> hmm... will give it a try
[12:48] <B-rabbit> eric2087, shockwave is simillar to flash i think, they both do the same job...
[12:48] <idefix> B-raabit?
[12:49] <idefix> B-rabbit
[12:49] <chazco> Anyone know why the fixed flash package was pulled from proposed btw?
[12:49] <eric2087> i'm removing the old stuff now...
[12:49] <JediMaster> I'm trying to change the brightness of my lcd on my toshiba laptop, and just can't get it to work. The brightness applet doesn't make any difference, and I've even tried: echo "50" > /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness which has no effect (even though that file now reports the brightness has changed)
[12:49] <sidelil> tho1, ok. I know my ESSID and my password, what should I write in the interfaces file?

[12:51] <usr13> is_installed: command not found?
[12:51] <Malachi> eggroll: Type 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' without the quotes.
[12:51] <idefix> what happened?
[12:51] <eggroll> ok...one sec
[12:51] <tho1> sidelil http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49287/
[12:51] <sidelil> tho1, thanks a lot
[12:51] <usr13> Why is it that:  is_installed: command not found?
[12:51] <intelikey> GHOST restart the applet ?
[12:52] <GHOST> ok ill try :)
[12:52] <GHOST> its the net manager
[12:52] <giggsey> Whats a good partition editor for Ubuntu? One I can resize ntfs with?
[12:52] <usr13> Do we have some sort of alternative for "is_installed"?
[12:52] <intelikey> giggsey *parted
[12:53] <giggsey> I've been trying to use gparted, but I need to be able to force it to partition
[12:53] <intelikey> usr13 what does "is_installed" do ?
[12:53] <usr13> giggsey: try parted
[12:53] <eggroll> malachi: ok...I have the screen for autodetecting video hardware
[12:53] <eggroll> should I choose yes
[12:53] <GHOST> yea ts nice
[12:53] <Malachi> eggroll: No.
[12:53] <Malachi> eggroll: Find VESA, and choose that.
[12:54] <edgy> Hi, when I plug an external HD, it's automounted and get default options such as rw,nosuid,nodev. The question is from where does it got those options? There is no entry in /etc/fstab for it
[12:54] <usr13> "is_installed, which uses the bash built-in type to see whether a program is installed"
[12:54] <eggroll> malachi: actually it only give s me a yes no option
[12:54] <Malachi> Choose no.
[12:54] <eggroll> ok
[12:54] <Malachi> Then choose VESA, eggroll.
[12:55] <usr13>  intelike: It's in a script that I'm wanting to use.
   how do You start your vnc server?
[12:55] <Matrix> iw tryed look every were
[12:55] <Arelis> Guys, i tried installing some window managers (20 window managers or so), but with the "Setting up <window manager name here>" message, i get segmentation faults.. HUH?! This is serious, is my system broken? It returns error code 139, if it helps. Anyone? <-- This is a really critical problem. I can't install ANY package, nor update my system. It's all broken, and keeps segfaulting. even removing all those packages does not help. Please, can a
[12:55] <xLE> how do i get a file out of a .rar file?
[12:55] <tho1> Matrix I don't use vnc...it is too unsecure. I use NoMachine's NXserver
[12:55] <eggroll> malachi: now it asks for an identifier for my video card....
[12:55] <usr13> is_installed is supposed to see whether a program is installed.
[12:55] <eggroll> default to a generic
[12:55] <tho1> Matrix  but I can pastebin my old vnc script if you give me a minute
[12:55] <Arelis> The forums are giving no answers, and neither is google.
[12:56] <Matrix> sure wait a bit neede to log on ubuntu
[12:56] <Matrix> then lol
[12:56] <edgy> xLE: unrar x yourfile.rar
[12:56] <intelikey> usr13 but what does "is_installed" do ?   if you can't tell us what the thing does we probably can't tell you what you can substitute.
[12:56] <Malachi> eggroll: Yes, choose the default, and then select the defaults for everything else.
[12:56] <eggroll> ok..one sec..
[12:56] <intelikey> usr13 oh  sorry  lag
[12:56] <Robert_Cozier> tho1 did you try XFCE on SUSE?
[12:56] <usr13> intelikey: I'm hoping to adapt Carl Welch's GPG-Based Password Wallet script to work on my ubuntu system.
[12:56] <intelikey> usr13  dpkg -l | grep -q <package name>
[12:57] <Ahri> Flannel: thanks, i'll try to create a new partition for ubuntu
[12:57] <eggroll> malachi: it asks for the amount of memory to be used by the video card....no default amount listed
[12:57] <tho1> Matrix http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49290/
[12:57] <intelikey> usr13 or if you want it to confirm propper installation    dpkg -l | grep ^ii | grep -q <package name>
[12:57] <tho1> Robert_Cozier I use xfce on both ubuntu (my server) and suse (my laptop)
[12:57] <Malachi> eggroll: Just hit enter.
[12:57] <eggroll> ok
[12:58] <Matrix> that easy?
[12:58] <Matrix> :o
[12:58] <tho1> Matrix I can make it harder if you like
[12:58] <Robert_Cozier> tho1 oh kk, i've never used it or seen it b4 that's all
[12:58] <Matrix> i jsut neede vnc for my neck
[12:58] <Matrix> Lol my other computer is behind me and my neck hurt
[12:58] <vincenz> I'm upgrading from LTS.  I've gotten to edge, now going to feisty. but I get an error from GnuPG in the console
[12:58] <eggroll> malachi: use kernal framebuffer device interface?
[12:58] <eggroll> yes or no?
[12:58] <Robert_Cozier> heh what the hell i've got time to screw around with the pc these hols so I might as well try something diff
[12:59] <tho1> Robert_Cozier much more control than gnome or kde...for instance, I map my home folder on the server to a folder in ~ with one click in the filemanager
[12:59] <Malachi> eggroll: What's the default?
[12:59] <eggroll> no
[12:59] <eggroll> that's what the focus is on
[12:59] <amin> i have question
[12:59] <tho1> Robert_Cozier xfce is also the only way to go if you have limited resources (ram,hd,cpu speed)
[12:59] <Malachi> eggroll: No, then. (Hit enter)
[13:00] <eggroll> ok
[13:00] <usr13> intelikey: is_installed is supposed to be a function of dialog
[13:00] <amin> it is not only about ubuntu
[13:00] <usr13> intelikey: according to Carl Welch's article in Linux Journal Magazine.
[13:00] <Arelis> Guys, i tried installing some window managers (20 window managers or so), but with the "Setting up <window manager name here>" message, i get segmentation faults.. HUH?! This is serious, is my system broken? It returns error code 139, if it helps. Anyone? <-- This is a really critical problem. I can't install ANY package, nor update my system. It's all broken, and keeps segfaulting. even removing all those packages does not help. Please, can a
[13:01] <wols> Arelis: FULL apt-get output
[13:01] <wols> and segfaults are always serious, but rarely easy to diagnose
[13:02] <Arelis> wols: The errors are in Dutch, but here are the errors: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49284/
[13:02] <vincenz> I keep getting this while trying to upgrade from edgy to feisty "exception from gpg: GnuPG exited non-zero, with code 131072"
[13:02] <intelikey> usr13 you can write that as a function if you like.   i was just giving a methood for finding out if a package is installed    should work on "all" debian based distros
[13:02] <usr13> intelikey: Actually, that's not true, because I see in his script, "is_installed dialog".  So I guess I'm wrong about that, but I think the article is a little vague or lacking in some details.
[13:02] <eggroll> malachi: ok...hit all the default and I'm back at the command prompt
[13:03] <B-rabbit> usr13, can you pastebin the content of ur script
[13:03] <GHOST> ty ideily u rock
[13:03]  * Matrix wonders what's ubuntus ctrl + alt + delete
[13:03] <usr13> B-rabbit: Sure, just a sec.
[13:03] <Malachi> eggroll: Reboot by typing "sudo reboot" and see if it works.
[13:03] <intelikey> usr13 no. you are misunderstanding what he's saying.   is_installed is a function and it's outputing to dialog for user input
[13:03] <eggroll> ok
[13:04] <intelikey> usr13 but assuming that dialog is installed is not a wise move either.
[13:04] <usr13> intelikey: B-rabbit: http://pastebin.ca/upload.php
[13:05] <usr13> intelikey: But I did install dialog
[13:05] <usr13> intelikey: I just don't know what to do about "is_installed"
[13:06] <ItchyHobo> hello ppl
[13:06] <Arelis> wols: The errors are in Dutch, but here are the errors: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49284/
[13:06] <intelikey> usr13 find where the function is defined.   and fix it.
[13:06] <crush_groove> hoiw vcan u tell whether a package needs to be made after it6s untarred?
[13:07] <GHOST> ty a lot intelikey i workx :)
[13:07] <eggroll> malachi: I don't think any change....it looks like it almost flashes between a dim blank screen and a brighter one a few times and then just goes blank....it did the same thing before also
[13:07] <wols> aeGIs: export LANG=C
[13:07] <wols> aeGIs: then run the error producing stuff egain
[13:07] <intelikey> crush_groove always read the docs that come with it.
[13:07] <cl5> #surabaya
[13:08] <intelikey> crush_groove they are generally in all caps
[13:08] <Malachi> eggroll: Hm, okay. Reboot back into recovery mode. The problem probably isn't the gfx driver like I thought.
[13:08] <eggroll> oh ok...one sec
[13:08] <crush_groove> intelikey,  agreed . this partcularly read me only gives you version update info
[13:08] <cl5> hiiiiiiiiii
[13:08] <usr13> intelikey: Oh, well... according to the article, "function" is another file
[13:08] <B-rabbit> cls i think u ment to type "/join #surabaya" ;)
[13:09] <usr13> intelikey: http://pastebin.ca/828405
[13:09] <Arelis> wols: Did you receive my message?
[13:09] <vincenz> B-rabbit: and you meant to type cl5 :)
[13:09] <B-rabbit> lol
[13:09] <usr13> intelikey:  ~/bin/function
[13:09] <intelikey> usr13 so like i said, you can make a function of that name 'is_installed'  with the dpkg/grep string and use that.
[13:09] <avis> how do i create a bootable installable ubuntu media on a usb flash drive ?
[13:09] <wols> but to know what exactly happens with ratpoison, set "set -x" on top of ratpoison.postinst in /var/lib/dpkg/info
[13:09] <wols> Arelis:  export LANG=C
[13:10] <wols> Arelis:  then run the error producing stuff egain
[13:10] <Arelis> ok
[13:10] <Ace2016> Hi all
[13:10] <eggroll> malachi: ok, I have the command line again
[13:11] <Malachi> eggroll: Let me make sure I'm understanding you correctly, first. You get the blank screen AFTER you see the orange Ubuntu screen?
[13:11] <Ace2016> Anyone know what app is running on the desktop in the read news section: ttp://blog.shankarganesh.com/2007/12/21/how-to-improve-your-english-online/
[13:11] <Ace2016> that looks like a gnome desktop to me
[13:11] <Arelis> wols: Thanks. That's a handy trick. Errors: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49293/
[13:11] <eggroll> yep...the orange loading bar goes across the screen
[13:12] <intelikey> usr13 yeah that only looks for executables of a given name.  and   which blah   works better
[13:12] <eggroll> then its just blank
[13:12] <Ace2016> its the second picture
[13:12] <Malachi> egroll: Okay, first, let's undo our changes. Type 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' again.
[13:12] <avis> how do i create bootable usb flash drive media for installing gutsy ?
[13:12] <eggroll> ok....
[13:12] <eggroll> one sec
[13:12] <Ace2016> what is this app:  http://blog.shankarganesh.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/news.jpg
[13:12] <Malachi> eggroll: This time, go ahead and automatically detect changes.
[13:13] <B-rabbit> avis, http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-usb-bar
[13:13] <Arelis> wols: A list of packages i installed: dwm dwm-tools evilwm fluxbox fluxconf fbdesk fbpager flwm ion3 jwm larswm ratpoison waimea wmii aewm++ amiwm afterstep ctwm backstep trayer docker
[13:13] <avis> thank you B-rabbit
[13:13] <wols> Arelis: this could be hardware. start with a LONG  memtest
[13:13] <wols> Arelis: or maybe heat problems
[13:13] <eggroll> auto detect video hardware you mean?
[13:14] <menllyos> i want to switch from xp to ubuntu, but im a little worried about the x-fi drivers? is there a driver out that works with ubuntu?
[13:14] <Malachi> eggroll: Yes.
[13:14] <Arelis> wols: I think it's not. Only apt-get gives segmentation faults, and only when doing that script. Also, i just got this pc brand-new from my father (he used it for like 2 years), and it had windows on it.
[13:14] <eggroll> ok
[13:14] <eggroll> and then default from there?
[13:14] <Malachi> Yes, eggroll.
[13:14] <eggroll> until I get a command prompt?
[13:14] <Arelis> wols: And it started today, when i tried to install all those packages. Before, it was normal.
[13:15] <mx92> hi guys.
[13:15] <B-rabbit> avis, u r welcome :)
[13:15] <Arelis> wols: Before, i installed E17 from a repo and uninstalled it again. And i installed wmii and removed it.
[13:15] <eggroll> until I get a command prompt?
[13:15] <psyk0z> hii
[13:15] <bazhang> hi psyk0z
[13:15] <mx92> can you help me?
[13:15] <Arelis> wols: did you receive all those messages?
[13:16] <intelikey> anyone know why subshells are not inheriting the environment of the parrent     using    openvt   ?
[13:16] <Arelis> (i think my internet is acting weird)
[13:16] <eggroll> malachi: until I get a command prompt?
[13:16] <bazhang> depends mx92; what is your question?
[13:16] <Malachi> eggroll: Correct.
[13:16] <crush_groove>  I went to reboot sys and after I logged out I tick restart and I got a "Warning" that said  "usr bill tty login vt2" whats this mean ?
[13:16] <mx92> to run compiz I must install the restricted driver of ati.
[13:16] <usr13> intelikey: Well, that didn't work either,  (I created the file "function" in ~/bin  and gave it the executable bit, and put ~/bin in my path)
[13:17] <mx92> but I've a problem
[13:17] <intelikey> crush_groove means you still have a user logged into tty2
[13:17] <usr13> intelikey: Ok, will try using blah
[13:17] <mx92> when I install the fglrx-kernel-source
[13:17] <intelikey> usr13 blah is a generic name for foo
[13:17] <eggroll> malachi: ok, I have the command prompt again
[13:17] <mx92> it tells that the file don't exist
[13:17] <crush_groove> googles tty2
[13:18] <bazhang> want a factoid on how to install the ati driver mx92?
[13:18] <Malachi> eggroll: Now, let's temporarily disable the splash screen so we can see what's going on.
[13:18] <intelikey> foo being akin to *
[13:18] <psyk0z> i would  like run the perl under my apache2
[13:18] <usr13> intelikey: blah?
[13:18] <Malachi> eggroll: Type sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:18] <intelikey> usr13 blah = *
[13:18] <intelikey> meaning anything here.
[13:19] <Arelis> wols: did you receive those messages?
[13:19] <gspr> What's the best way to work around the kernel panic people are experiencing when booting a ubuntu live CD with the standard qemu version in Gutsy?
[13:19] <psyk0z> please help me
[13:19] <usr13> intelikey: Is that how I'd use it in the script? e.g.:  blah = gpg  ?
[13:19] <intelikey> no
[13:19] <eggroll> malachi: ok
[13:19] <usr13> intelikey: I'm lost...  Please enlighten me....  :)
[13:20] <psyk0z> how to make work the perl under apache?
[13:20] <keitherz> why cant gcc find common and basic libraries
[13:20] <OldSpice> Is 5gb enough for ubuntu? I have 7GB to spare and i want to do 5GB ubuntu, 1GB swap, and 1GB home, unless anyone else has any other suggestions.
[13:20] <eggroll> malachi: I'm there
[13:20] <Malachi> eggroll: Press page down until you get to the section that says "End Default Options." It's towards the very end.
[13:20] <bazhang> psyk0z: if you dont get an answer here you can also visit #apache
[13:20] <keitherz> like iostream and stdio
[13:20] <intelikey> usr13    is_installed() { PATHNAME="$(which $1 || return 1)" ; }
[13:20] <psyk0z> but my OS is UBUNTU
[13:20] <B-rabbit> OldSpice, it's more than enough
[13:20] <mx92> to install it I've an italian guide but something is wrong
[13:20] <eggroll> malachi: ok...I see it
[13:21] <intelikey> usr13 if the command is found the path to it is set if not the exit code is 1
[13:21] <orgy_> hi, gnome keeps freezing when i try to log out, what could be the problem? is there a way to reset all gnome specific configuration?
[13:21] <bazhang> !ati | mx92
[13:21] <ubotu> mx92: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[13:21] <Malachi> eggroll: Look for the words quiet and splash a few lines below. Delete them. JUST the words quiet and splash.
[13:21] <OldSpice> B-rabbit: okay thank you, just had to get that cleared up. I had ubuntu before but i partitioned my disk wrong and now i need to re-install it, but just making sure.
[13:22] <intelikey> usr13 or to keep consistang with the example you pasted.  use exit in place of return
[13:22] <Arelis> wols: are you there?
[13:22] <intelikey> one really has no business editing scripts with functions in them until they learn a little about functions.
[13:23] <cl5> #surabaya
[13:23] <eggroll> malachi: honestly...I don't see either word, "quiet" or "splash"
[13:23] <mx92> my guide is the same but in italian http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/Hardware/Video/Ati/NuoviDriver
[13:24] <usr13> intelikey: Ok, that works.  I see... thanks.
[13:24] <mx92> this comand m-a build fglrx gives mi that problem
[13:24] <szalexliu> hello .somebody can help me. I want to install ubuntu server on my computer .and my computer sata is FastTrak 376/378 RAID control.but ...
[13:24] <Malachi> eggroll: Do you see a line that starts with kernel?
[13:24] <eggroll> yep
[13:25] <intelikey> usr13 welcome.   and if you need more help with bash scripting there is a channel dedicated to that  /j #bash
[13:25] <Malachi> eggroll: Put the cursor on that line and press right until you get to the very end.
[13:25] <szalexliu> at the setup for partion is not select for raid setting .is 2 sata disk....
[13:25] <eggroll> ok
[13:25] <eggroll> ah ok....
[13:25] <eggroll> I see the two words...
[13:26] <eggroll> and have deleted them
[13:26] <bazhang> szalexliu: if no one can answer your question here, you can also ask in #ubuntu-server
[13:26] <szalexliu> OK!THX
[13:27] <intelikey> usr13 functions are really very simple programs that reside in memory.     you write a function (generally within the script in question)  and then call that function as if it were an ordenary command.
[13:27] <eggroll> malachi: I found the two words at the end of that line and I have deleted them
[13:28] <moldy> hi
[13:28] <Malachi> eggroll: Press Ctrl+O, followed by Enter (to save), and then press Ctrl+X.
[13:28] <usr13> intelikey: are you saying that I did not need to provide the functions file?
[13:28] <intelikey> usr13 yep.
[13:28] <usr13> o  ok...
[13:28] <eggroll> malachi: ok
[13:28] <usr13> Well, the script works.  Should be very handy....
[13:28] <Malachi> eggroll: Reboot.
[13:29] <kr0n1x> hi, there are any with some known of ssh? when i try in terminal "ssh remoteuser@remoteip" it stay hangs :(
[13:29] <eggroll> sudo reboot?
[13:29] <Malachi> eggroll: Yes.
[13:29] <usr13> kr0n1x: ssh ip.address.here
[13:29] <intelikey> usr13 i'm saying you can define the function within the script as easily as externally, and that internally defined functions are not lost if the single executable file is copied to another system.
[13:30] <intelikey> as was your case.
[13:30] <usr13> intelikey: I see. Yes, that would be a good idea. Would make it more portable.
[13:30] <kr0n1x> usr13 i've 2 pc in my home. i'm trying to connect them together. when in all pc was Ubuntu, it worked. now there is Ubuntu in one pc, and fluxbuntu in another, and now it doesn't work :(
[13:30] <usr13> intelikey: I'll do that.
[13:31] <usr13> kr0n1x: is ssh installed?  (on both)
[13:31]  * intelikey is an opponant of scattering small files all over the system when one file can do all the work just as effeciently.
[13:31] <kr0n1x> yes yes, also server usr13
[13:31] <kr0n1x> i've disable password auth and i use only passphrase..installed in all 2 pc
[13:31] <usr13> kr0n1x: openssh-client & openssh-server
[13:31] <kr0n1x> yes
[13:32] <kr0n1x> client is installed by default. i installed server on all pc
[13:32] <B-rabbit> kr0n1x, try a loop conection and see if it works
[13:32] <usr13> kr0n1x: then just do:  ssh ip-address.here
[13:32] <intelikey> kr0n1x and usr13 the meta package   ssh  depends on both server and client
[13:32] <eggroll> malachi: so it ran through a whole bunch of stuff during reboot, no gui screen, and then the blank screen again
[13:32] <kr0n1x> B-rabbit how to try a loop connection?
[13:32] <usr13> intelikey: so it's just: apt-get install ssh  ?
[13:32] <intelikey> yep
[13:32] <kr0n1x> usr13 when i type ssh ip or ssh user@ip, it stay hangs...with no reply
[13:33] <Malachi> eggroll: Did you see what the last message was before the blanks screen? That's the point not having a gui.
