[10:32] <ompaul> jrod, as I said alternative so you may have to explain slightly differntly
[10:32] <dv_> I just want a stupid player that can handle a simple playlist
[10:32] <shadowc001> that is the latest desperation
[10:32] <Lilacor> shadowc001: you're using nvidia?
[10:32] <shadowc001> yes
[10:32] <dv_> one that can hold over 2000 songs
[10:32] <jrod> ompaul, i found a great guide
[10:32] <ompaul> dv_, we only have clever ones - xmms
[10:32] <Lilacor> shadowc001: have you used nvidia-settings?
[10:32] <blackjackel> I need quick help, I'm trying to install something via steam on my NTFS filesystem, and instead its installing it in the fake steam C drive...
[10:32] <dv_> xmms crashes
[10:32] <shadowc001> it says "auto" as the resolution
[10:32] <shadowc001> and "off" is grayed out
[10:32] <tovella> murdock76: did you get the box asking you to agree to the DLJ license for java?
[10:32] <murdock76> tovella: no.
[10:33] <dv_> audacious takes AGES to add .ogg files to the playlist
[10:33] <Lilacor> shadowc001: are you using the right driver?
[10:33] <tovella> murdock76: install it manually.
[10:33] <ompaul> dv_, not for me, strange that
[10:33] <shadowc001> the nvidia logo pops up
[10:33] <shadowc001> i did the "enable restriced drivers" install of it
[10:33] <_Xar_> Hi everyone, I have a pc that does not boot from CD rom and want to use ubuntu live. Is it possible to use a boot floppy?
[10:33] <zaggynl> Anyone has a clue on what this means? 'Zdravo tino, ovde je sve dobro. Ja mislim svaki dan na tebe, ja sam ti kupila rukavica 2oo komada. Puno te volim'
[10:33] <nir_ai_> where (in what file) does nautilus keep the "open with" settings?
[10:33] <anathematic> music player for ubuntuuuuuu :<
[10:33] <anathematic> ?
[10:34] <chdragonfly> if i uninstall ubuntu..will everything on windows be like before installation?
[10:34] <anathematic> or a codec pack for ubuntu so the current stuff works?
[10:34] <murdock76> all i can find is lousy bin files for the java. :S
[10:34] <Fri13> anathematic: you need musicplayer for gnome?
[10:34] <tovella> murdock76: aptitude install sun-java6-plugin
[10:34] <moDumass> hey all, cant swap users back without black screen
[10:34] <anathematic> Fri13: yesum
[10:34] <moDumass> any ideas? ive tried alt-ctrl-f7
[10:34] <Fri13> anathematic: try banshee
[10:35] <dv_> also, if xmms crashes,
[10:35] <anathematic> Fri13: thanks, does that come with mp3 codecs by the way? I've noticed gnome doesn't come with it so aeyh
[10:35] <dv_> the xmms.m3u playlist gets deleted
[10:35] <Fri13> moDumass: ctrl+alt+F7 is first graphical login and F8 is for second etc etc.
[10:35] <dv_> which is VERY BAD
[10:35] <moDumass> nothing fixes it, i could prb alt-ctrl-f1 and then alt-ctrl-del to restart x,
[10:35] <shadowc001> there has to be another config file in feisty that is blocking me
[10:35] <moDumass> Fril3 neither work after swapping back.
[10:36] <nir_ai_> anyone knows where (in what file) does nautilus keep the "open with" settings?
[10:36] <moDumass> Fri13 im using feisyfawn
[10:36] <Fri13> moDumass: if ctrl+alt+backspace dont work, it looks like your keyboard input has gone dead. Do you have 3D accelerate enable in Xorg?
[10:36] <Lilacor> shadowc001: did you run nvidia-glx-config enable
[10:36] <Lilacor> shadowc001: and nvidia-xserver ?
[10:36] <Lilacor> shadowc001: and nvidia-xconfig
[10:36] <murdock76> tovella: done.
[10:37] <dv_> oh man, rhythmbox refuses to simply play stuff, it wants to import it to its custom directory
[10:37] <tovella> murdock76: ok, so check again - about:plugins.
[10:37] <shadowc001> no, ill try that
[10:37] <shadowc001> i assumed something like that was auto done on the "enable restriced driver" thingy
[10:37] <cox377_> i'm trying to completely uninstall something? is the command sudo apt-get remove --purge <package name>
[10:38] <Fri13> anathematic: if you want get legal MP3 support, there is package there, just now i dont remember what it was. But if you dont live in USA or any other country what dont allow use exa: libdvdcss, then you can install win32codecs and libxine and you get all codecs to your system.
[10:38] <moDumass> Fri13 I do indeed
[10:38] <anathematic> Fri13:  okay thanks i'll google
[10:39] <Fri13> moDumass: ctrl+alt+del is for reboot system, ctrl+alt+backspace is for restarting X
[10:39] <moDumass> Fri13 but i do still have an active cursor
[10:39] <moDumass> Fri13 neither work when im at blackscreen though
[10:39] <murdock76> tovella: wierd.
[10:39] <murdock76> tovella: doesn't list the jre.
[10:39] <cox377_> how do i completely and utterly remove a package?
[10:40] <Fri13> moDumass: keyboard and mouse have somehow separeted I/O and if xorg.conf is configured badly keyboard can be lost, but if you move to other virtual consoles you can restart GDM from there (GDM is Gnome's login manager).
[10:40] <shadowc001> lilacor: nvidia-xserver?
[10:40] <ompaul> cox377_,  sudo apt-get remove --purge [packagename]   << then remove the stuff in your home dir most likely .packagename
[10:41] <cox377_> ompaul: nice one
[10:41] <Fri13> cox377_: from console type "sudo apt-get remove <package name>" (without quotes).
[10:41] <murdock76> tovella: wierdness.
[10:41] <tovella> murdock76: try this command "aptitude search sun-java6"... look for the first charicters (i, or p) for some indication as to the status of the package  - intalled, or not.
[10:42] <murdock76> ok
[10:42] <Lilacor> shadowc001: and nvidia-xconfig
[10:42] <Fri13> moDumass: If you change from user A to user B and back to user A it gets blank screen with workin mouse? Can you change back with ctrl+alt+F8 ?
[10:42] <graveson> is it possible to use gparted to format a disk using ntfs and is it recommended
[10:43] <murdock76> tovella: isn't finding it. :S
[10:43] <tovella> you are running feisty, right?
[10:43] <murdock76> no
[10:43] <murdock76> i'm running dapper.
[10:44] <blackjackel> I need help with installing a program on my NTFS partition using WINE.... its only installing it in the fake wine C drive that its made, I can't seem to get it installed on my NTFS drive...
[10:44] <murdock76> this all doesn't work for dapper does it? :S
[10:44] <tovella> murdock76: nope.
[10:44] <murdock76> ack
[10:44] <ompaul> !java | murdock76
[10:44] <ubotu> murdock76: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[10:44] <cox377_> ompaul: java version "1.4.2-02, that;s not the latest versiuon of java is it?
[10:44] <murdock76> shoulda mentioned...
[10:44] <ompaul> cox377_, no interest in java so no idea
[10:44] <nicholaspaul> when I try running irssi in terminal, I type '/connect irc.freenode.net' and it says 'nick erroneous nickname' after trying to connect - whats that about??
[10:44] <cox377_> ompaul: lol fair play
[10:44] <murdock76> i use dapper ubotu
[10:44] <shadowc001> lilacor: yeah, its all "working"
[10:45] <cox377_> anyone else
[10:45] <nich2chien> blackjackel: do you use ntfs-3g ?
[10:45] <shadowc001> i have 3d its just stuck at one rez
[10:45] <ompaul> cox377_, so ehh latest may not be the best idea security patched is much better
[10:45] <blackjackel> nich2chien: Yep
[10:45] <tovella> murdock76: why still with Dapper?
[10:45] <PrimoTurbo> Whats the command to allow xchat to minimize to system tray on close?
[10:45] <ompaul> tovella, it will be supported on the desktop beyond fiesty
[10:46] <murdock76> tovella: it's still supported.
[10:46] <nicholaspaul> anyone here familiar with irssi ?
[10:46] <murdock76> tovella: didn't find a need to go any further since i have a thinkpad x11 i'm running this on.
[10:46] <Ohzie> Hi. I can see the partitions on /dev/hda in fdisk, but I cannot mount them, or boot to my linux partition. I installed windows, and then linux, like I thought you were supposed to for dual-booting, so that you could boot to grub, and then grub could boot you to windows or linux, but instead when I installed linux it hosed windows completely. Now I'm back to working windows, and a windows MBR, but I can't get into linux. Now gparted tells
[10:47] <blackjackel> Anyone know the game with the BEST graphix that runs natively on Linux?
[10:47] <murdock76> tovella: so i want java5 then.
[10:47] <shadowc001> quake 4 :D
[10:47] <RainCT> Hi, networking isn't working and if I restart samba it says start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 6145: No such process. What can that be?
[10:47] <nicholaspaul> my IRSSI is broked :(
[10:47] <tovella> murdock76: the desktop enhancements like easier installation of multimedia plugins are one of many that made me take the plunge.
[10:48] <tovella> murdock76: sure, go for java5
[10:48] <murdock76> tovella: ok.
[10:48] <moDumass> Fri13, no i cant, sorry about the delayed response, my gf is making me cook
[10:48] <murdock76> tovella: i wish mplayer would go in...then my probs will be over.
[10:48] <moDumass> but i can got to f1 - f4 i think
[10:49] <moDumass> Fri13, i cant go to alt-ctrl-f7 or f8, but i can to f1 - f4
[10:49] <chdragonfly> hi, i installed ubuntu, now when i restart and select boot into windows, it just shows a black screen. I
[10:49] <tovella> murdock76: i think mplayer will go "go in", but i don't think you problems would be over.
[10:49] <murdock76> oh
[10:49] <murdock76> damn
[10:49] <shadowc001> ok apparently its only the nvidia driver
[10:49] <murdock76> i can watch youtube ok.
[10:49] <shadowc001> nv works fine now
[10:50] <murdock76> if i get quicktime i might be able to watch news vids at yahoo instead of cnn.
[10:50] <tovella> murdock76: youtube uses flashplayer.
[10:50] <chdragonfly> anyone know whether if its fixable or am i just doomed?
[10:50] <blackjackel> shadowc001: I can't run quake4 with ATI?
[10:50] <shadowc001> blackjackel: im sorry :(
[10:51] <shadowc001> blackjackel: my friend does just fine, unless u were asking if u could, then yes
[10:51] <murdock76> if they all stuck with flash, we'd have less headaches. :S
[10:51] <Fri13> moDumass: then problem is in your X configuration on /etc/X11/xorg.conf. You have updated drivers?
[10:51] <tovella> murdock76: totem-gstreamer offers support for quicktime, too.
[10:51] <revilodraw> hi! im running xp in vmware, and have winscp installed... i have installed ssh in ubuntu... how do i send files from ubuntu to xp and vice-versa using winscp
[10:51] <murdock76> tovella: good news.  i just got the license agreement.
[10:51] <shadowc001> ok, BIG QUESTION, how do i get the nvidia website drivers to work from a fresh install of feisty
[10:52] <moDumass> as in new ones, um, id think so, no more than 2 months old
[10:52] <tovella> murdock76: lots of problems with flash - adobe doesn't want to play nice - closed source, so they won't let anyone else fix it.
[10:52] <graveson> is it possible to use gparted to format a disk using ntfs and is it recommended
[10:52] <Fri13> chdragonfly: you can fix it, first you need to find what is your windows partition, you can use there gparted partition software. If it's not installed then install it first by "sudo apt-get install gparted" on gnome-terminal. Then you need to check is /boot/grub/menu.lst correct. Ubuntuguide helps here.
[10:53] <moDumass> Fri13, is it possible to update drivers from within gui or do i have to go console
[10:53] <lun> good morning ;-)
[10:53] <moDumass> Fri13, i dont like breaking xorg.conf, which i am good at doing
[10:53] <jxxxt> blackjackel: try another native linux game tremulus
[10:54] <murdock76> tovella: what's my next move?
[10:54] <tovella> murdock76: check again - about:plugins
[10:54] <revilodraw> hi! im running xp in vmware, and have winscp installed... i have installed ssh in ubuntu... how do i send files from ubuntu to xp and vice-versa
[10:54] <murdock76> i did.  java is in there now. ;)
[10:54] <Fri13> moDumass: when updating nvidia drivers you need go to init3 level (non-graphical because Xorg cant be running) and install it from there.
[10:55] <Fri13> moDumass: you can always take backup from your xorg.conf file ;-)
[10:55] <murdock76> tovella: java is on the list.
[10:55] <Lilacor> revilodraw: vmware...player... workstation...server?
[10:55] <Fri13> like cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup1
[10:55] <revilodraw> lilacor: vmware player
[10:55] <moDumass> Fri13, how would i be able to tell which version of drivers im using?
[10:55] <tovella> ok, let me get some more stuff for you.
[10:55] <variant> Fri13: no you don't
[10:56] <variant> Fri13: use the restricted driver manager to install nvidia/ati drivers
[10:56] <pai> elo. help me pls re making my ubuntu laptop a dualboot with xp...
[10:57] <murdock76> ok
[10:57] <shadowc001> it says i need libc header files
[10:57] <Fri13> variant: drivers what nvidia offers are better ones, yes i know user can just use package manager but he need to use 3rd party drivers etc etc.
[10:57] <shadowc001> the restricted driver is broken
[10:57] <murdock76> tovella: is there any way to fix the dependencies to get mplayer installed?
[10:57] <Fri13> And still restart X and sometimes even reboot to get them work.
[10:58] <tovella> murdock76: not sure.
[10:58] <variant> Fri13: the third party drivers ARE the drivers available with the drivermanager and there is zero performance difference
[10:58] <murdock76> tovella: oh
[10:58] <jxxxt> how do i change from full screen to desktop??
[10:58] <shadowc001> what do i need to install for the libc headers so the nvidia drivers will install?
[10:58] <variant> shadowc001: just use the restricted driver manager
[10:58] <shadowc001> variant: its broken for me
[10:58] <tovella> murdock76: copy & paste this:
[10:58] <tovella> aptitude install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse
[10:58] <variant> shadowc001: how?
[10:59] <shadowc001> variant: stuck at 800x600
[10:59] <variant> shadowc001: run nvidia-settings
[10:59] <Fri13> variant: zero performance yes, but there can be problems. I have fixed _many_ PC what have used SAME version by installing nvidia owns.
[10:59] <shadowc001> variant: it says "auto" thats it... dude, trust me ive been at this for 4 hrs now
[10:59] <Fri13> And that's one reason why i moved away from restricted *buntu to other distros.
[10:59] <tovella> murdock76: you may have to substitute 0.08 for 0.10, cause i'm using feisty.
[10:59] <variant> shadowc001: lol ok
[10:59] <shadowc001> now what do i need to install for libc header files :D
[11:01] <shadowc001> got it, nm
[11:01] <ompaul> !compile > shadowc001 (please check out the info from the bot)
[11:01] <shadowc001> we have bots?
[11:02] <shadowc001> <- obvious chan noob :D
[11:02] <tom-ubu-> hi when i go myplaces then i go to my home directory then i can not do much it just hangs
[11:03] <murdock76> tovella: 0,10 worked.
[11:03] <murdock76> tovella: what did i just do?
[11:03] <tovella> ok, good - all of them installed?
[11:03] <murdock76> tovella: i believe so.
[11:03] <shadowc001> smexy
[11:04] <shadowc001> new drivers work like a charm
[11:04] <shadowc001> omfg, why did i not try that earlier?
[11:04] <shadowc001> you win again linux!
[11:04] <tovella> murdock76: you just installed the plugins that allow gstreamer to use a lot of different multimedia codecs.
[11:05] <tom-ubu-> hi when i go myplaces then i go to my home directory then i can not do much it just hangs i close the window it opens again ?
[11:05] <murdock76> oh
[11:05] <tovella> murdock76: now lets check to see which totem you have installed...  "aptitude search totem".
[11:06] <murdock76> tovella: ok.
[11:06] <shadowc001> OK now comes the real big question that ill bet no one here knows, where do i copy the new file from
[11:06] <murdock76> tovella: gstreamer and xine.
[11:06] <tovella> murdock76:  you should see totem-gstreamer, totem-xine, totem-mozilla...  which ones have the letter "i" at just before the file names?
[11:06] <shadowc001> when i reboot the drivers are in the wrong place and it makes a "wrong version" error
[11:06] <shadowc001> i have to reinstall as it is now
[11:07] <shadowc001> every boot
[11:07] <LadyNikon> argh
[11:07] <LadyNikon> this is killing me.
[11:07] <murdock76> xine has the i in front of it.
[11:07] <murdock76> gstreamer doesn't.
[11:08] <murdock76> and totem-mozilla isn't there yet.
[11:08] <moDumass> Fri13, hmm, if i switch window manager to metasticy then it works no probs
[11:08] <shadowc001> any ideas anyone?
[11:08] <Fri13> moDumass: you have beryl/compiz?
[11:08] <tovella> murdock76: ok, install the other one... "aptitude install totem-gstreamer"
[11:08] <Tarkus> anyone know how to apply a new splash screen?
[11:08] <tom-ubu-> hi when i go myplaces then i go to my home directory then i can not do much it just hangs i close the window it opens again ?anyone who can assist me
[11:08] <PuNcHLiNe> i do
[11:09] <tovella> murdock76: it should tell you that there's a conflict with totem-xine, and prompt you to remove it (they cannot co-exist).   all we just did requires gstreamer.
[11:10] <murdock76> it is removing xine
[11:10] <murdock76> tovella: removing xine.  gstreamer is better yes?
[11:10] <prethalayam> How can i disable upnp in azurues?
[11:10] <revilodraw> i just realised that, apart from the printer, there is no need for me to have xp in a virtual machine...how do i delete the virtual machine i made, and would it be safer for me to uninstall ssh?
[11:10] <anathematic> if i installed vlc player would that installpretty much all my codecs for other programs as well?
[11:11] <tovella> murdock76: arguable, but it's what the gnome and ubuntu developers have chosen.
[11:11] <revilodraw> anathematic; vlc is brilliant
[11:11] <fuzzy_logic> hello people.. i have a ubuntu computer and a mandriva server.. what is the best tool to periodically back all my data up on that server??
[11:11] <murdock76> tovella: ahh.
[11:11] <kraut> moin
[11:11] <tovella> murdock76: now check again - about-plugins
[11:11] <murdock76> it's still installing gstreamer
[11:11] <tovella> murdock76: ok.
[11:12] <tom-ubu-> hi when i go myplaces then i go to my home directory then i can not do much it just hangs i close the window it opens again ?anyone who can assist me
[11:12] <moDumass> Fri13, i do intdeed, beryl, and compiz, metasticy
[11:12] <murdock76> tovella: now totem seems to be gone. :S
[11:12] <fuzzy_logic> can anyone help me plz!?
[11:13] <jakeg> wondering if anyone could help me with this wireless bug after a suspend/resume cycle - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/115743
[11:13] <tovella> murdock76: search for it - "aptitude search totem"
[11:13] <revilodraw> jakeg; me too!!!!
[11:13] <Tarkus> anyone know how to apply a new splash screen?
[11:13] <jakeg> revilodraw: eh?
[11:14] <tovella> murdock76: does totem-mozilla show up with the letter "i" just preceeding it?
[11:14] <jakeg> revilodraw: you have the same problem?
[11:14] <nanda> I have windows 2000 in a vmware, but I can't access the internet through it
[11:14] <nanda> it worked before, now stopped working
[11:14] <nanda> :(
[11:14] <murdock76> tovella no just totem-gstreamer
[11:15] <tovella> murdock76: you see totem-mozilla in the list, though, right?
[11:15] <murdock76> tovella: there was one on the list totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin.
[11:15] <murdock76> tovella: installing that one now.
[11:15] <tovella> murdock76: good call.
[11:15] <murdock76> tovella: thanks.
[11:16] <Lilacor> crap it's already 2am
[11:17] <prethalayam> How do i set a static IP in ubuntu?
[11:17] <jakeg> anyone here know how to make it so i don't see all these 'x has joined' 'y has left' messages?
[11:17] <Lilacor> prethalayam: use network manager
[11:17] <murdock76> tovella: now to check the plugins.
[11:17] <revilodraw> how do i delete the virtual xp machine i made?
[11:17] <jxxxt> prethalayam; there is a gui network that you can use
[11:18] <tovella> murdock76: you got it.
[11:18] <Lilacor> revilodraw: under vmware workstation?
[11:18] <murdock76> tovella: and it's back. :)
[11:18] <prethalayam> Yeah found that , but do i require a reboot after changing it
[11:18] <Fri13> moDumass: your problem is related to beryl/compiz and Nvidia. Do you have both installed (Beryl & Compiz)?
[11:18] <revilodraw> lilacor; under vmware player
[11:18] <murdock76> tovella: and cnn still does jack. :S
[11:19] <tovella> murdock76: now, cross you fingers and restart you browser.  go to cnn.com and click on one of those camera icons.
[11:19] <jxxxt> prethalayam; No just change and go
[11:19] <murdock76> i did.
[11:19] <murdock76> nothing happened.
[11:19] <yosumiru> whats #ubuntu-unregged?
[11:19] <Lilacor> revilodraw: do you know where the vm is located?
[11:19] <jxxxt> !ubuntu-unregged
[11:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-unregged - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:20] <revilodraw> umm yes... on the desktop
[11:20] <tovella> murdock76: then i'm afraid it may be another reason to move up to feisty.
[11:20] <murdock76> ack.
[11:20] <murdock76> i don't need the vids that badly...
[11:20] <tovella> murdock76: what's up with mplayer?  i had it installed on dapper.
[11:20] <Lilacor> revilodraw: then just delete it
[11:20] <murdock76> tovella: something about dependency trees.
[11:20] <Lilacor> revilodraw: delete it with all of its associated failes
[11:20] <Lilacor> files
[11:21] <revilodraw> lilacor; ok... thank you.. how does a virtual machine work lol? how can u get a huge xp install in 1.6gb
[11:21] <tovella> murdock76: sounds like you may have added some third party repositories, that don't mix will with ubuntu's.  am i close?
[11:22] <murdock76> i did add universe.
[11:22] <Pijiu> My Xbox360 connects to my laptop (wired) and my laptop then connects to my Uni's wireless internet, how do I share the internet connection so the Xbox360 can connect to XboxLive. All I had to do on windows XP was share the internet connection via properties.
[11:22] <tovella> murdock76: that one's probably OK.
[11:22] <murdock76> tovella: aptitude is doing something where apt-get did not. :O
[11:22] <Lilacor> revilodraw: I don't kinow
[11:22] <murdock76> tovella: i might get mplayer after all.
[11:23] <jxxxt> prethalayam: Did you fix??
[11:24] <Lilacor> Pijiu: you'll probably have to use iptables to redirect all of your xbox's traffic towards your local gateway
[11:24] <Lilacor> Pijiu: this is my initial guess
[11:24] <Pijiu> Lilacor: is there a guide to using iptables, I'm very new to linux and have no idea really what I'm doing lol
[11:24] <murdock76> tovella: oh well.  i'm gonna retire for now.
[11:25] <murdock76> tovella: if i want news that badly i can go on my other laptop.
[11:25] <tovella> murdock76: same, here.  goonight.
[11:25] <murdock76> or use the fiesty livecd mayhaps.
[11:25] <Lilacor> Pijiu: there's a lot of information on iptables... look up a 'howto IPtables" and you should find a lot of information
[11:25] <murdock76> tovella: night.
[11:25] <fuzzy_logic> i have a ubuntu computer and a mandriva server.. what is the best tool to periodically back all my data up on that server??
[11:25] <tribblies> im trying to understand how to get my monitor to work with ubuntu so it can display my native resoution but when i reconfigure xserver it just messes it up
[11:26] <Pijiu> Lilacor: Is iptables configured through a GUI or do I have to use terminal
[11:26] <fuzzy_logic> tribblies: did you install the right drivers for your graphic carD?
[11:26] <lizili> a joke: Newton was sitting under a tree when a apple felling one his head and he discoveried gravity ,Is't that wonderful ?
[11:26] <tom-ubu-> hi when i go myplaces then i go to my home directory then i can not do much it just hangs i close the window it opens again ?anyone who can assist me
[11:26] <Lilacor> Pijiu: I think there's both
[11:26] <Xoebun> u can do it both
[11:26] <prethalayam_> I try to set the same static IP which i use in windows , but ubuntu dosent take it
[11:26] <tribblies> i don't know how to install the nvidia drivers or in fact install anything
[11:26] <Lilacor> Pijiu: iptables is more useful if you know what the CLI however
[11:26] <lizili> student:yes sir .if he had been sitting in class looking at books like us, he wouldn't have discovered anything."
[11:26] <Pijiu> Lilacor: CLI ?
[11:26] <Lilacor> command line interface
[11:27] <Lilacor> !aptitude
[11:27] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[11:27] <fuzzy_logic> !nvidia > tribblies
[11:27] <Lilacor> tribblies: learn how to use aptitude or synaptic
[11:27] <fuzzy_logic> tribblies: look at the private message
[11:27] <shadowc001> gahhh, why did anyone not sugguest "nvidia-glx-new"? :D
[11:28] <jxxxt> some one please tell me how I can get to other menus temporary if there is a full screen game up
[11:28] <Lilacor> shadowc001: probably because a lot of us are using just nvidia-glx
[11:29] <jakeg> argh.... there must be a way to ignore all these 'has joined' and 'has quite' messages in IRC. Anyone???
[11:29] <jakeg> has quit*
[11:29] <Cavallek> hi
[11:29] <schilling> jakeg
[11:29] <schilling> which client?
[11:29] <Lilacor> Konversation here
[11:29] <jakeg> xchat
[11:29] <Cavallek> I have shared one folder. How I can now access it from other computer ? I have NFS sharing
[11:30] <jakeg> schilling: no options in preferences for it
[11:30] <schilling> i think that it's possible in mirc ;)
[11:30] <jakeg> schilling: thought it may be an IRC command to ignore them, but couldn't find one
[11:30] <Lilacor> it's also possible using Konversation
[11:30] <schilling> i don't think it's a specific irc command
[11:30] <jakeg> thanks
[11:31] <levon> anyone know where i can look for a great icon theme set
[11:31] <levon> i want something tripped out
[11:31] <pai> elo. help me pls re making my ubuntu laptop a dualboot with xp...
[11:31] <varka> levon: gnome? kde? ...?
[11:31] <albert> hi, is there a way of changing the refresh rate in the gfx-grub menu?
[11:31] <Jinchurei> Hi, i'm trying to install ubuntu on my laptop, which has an intermittently useful cdrom.  I tried using the feisty livecd and it crashes every time i try to install.  So, i followed these directions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows - grldr doesnt boot, tells me its compressed.  I burned a knoppix disk and tried everything i could find to mount the drive and fix my boot.ini, but all i get is an error message,
[11:31] <levon> like really science fiction but looks nice i varka its Gnome
[11:31] <levon> :)
[11:32] <varka> levon: www.gnome-look.org
[11:32] <levon> aww thank you varka
[11:32] <Jinchurei> "The NTFS partition is hibernated."  I googled the error and tried everything i could find and i'm still screwed.  Anyone have an idea?
[11:32] <Fri13> pai: paste your /boot/grub/menu.lst to http://rafb.net/paste and give address here. And check what is your windows partition with gparted (/dev/hd*), if gparted is not installed, install it by typing console "sudo apt-get install gparted"
[11:33] <Lilacor> Jinchurei: you've booted up that drive with win32 platforms also?
[11:33] <mbudde> jakeg, right click the channel tab i xchat -> Show join/part messages
[11:33] <prethalayam_> Do i have a better bit torrent client than azurues for ubuntu?
[11:33] <Jinchurei> Lilacor - currently it has xp installed on it, worked great till i broke the boot.ini
[11:33] <Lilacor> prethalayam_: ktorrent is very nice
[11:33] <prethalayam_> It is giving me all sorts of errors ( Null pointer exception etc)
[11:33] <prethalayam_> but will it work with gnome
[11:33] <dojo>  prethalayam: freeloader
[11:34] <prethalayam_> is there something like utorrent a small one
[11:34] <albert> prethalayam_, of course, even though you drag half of the kde library into your memory ;)
[11:34] <Lilacor> Jinchurei: boot up BartPE and fix boot.ini then
[11:34] <jakeg> mbudde: i don't get that option
[11:34] <Lilacor> prethalayam_: I'm enjoying kubuntu more than ubuntu to be honest.
[11:34] <yohanes_chin> hi all, I'm currently using dualboot...winxp and ubuntu...can i add edubuntu also so it'll be tripple boot? what will be the default boot? currently is ubuntu.
[11:34] <fourcheeze> btdownloadcurses ?
[11:34] <Lilacor> plus I'm using x64
[11:35] <Cavallek> I have shared one folder. How I can now access it from other computer ? I have NFS sharing
[11:35] <mbudde> jakeg, your not using xhat-gnome are you?
[11:35] <sacater> hey, how do I stop X from starting when I load up, so I am only presented with consoles
[11:35] <mbudde> you're*
[11:35] <sacater> and i start things from there
[11:35] <Lilacor> yohanes_chin: that's your choice to make <x> the defaul
[11:35] <Lilacor> t
[11:35] <SlimeyPete> yohanes_chin: yes you can add edubuntu. I should imagine that it will set edubuntu to be the default, but you can change this once it's installed by editing your grub settings.
[11:35] <jakeg> mbudde: xchat-gnome 0.16
[11:35] <gorski> how to mount linux partitions on Ubuntu Live CD?
[11:35] <albert> gorski, mount /dev/hdwhatever
[11:36] <gorski> ok, tnx
[11:36] <albert> or something quite similar
[11:36] <maop> hello ppl. Does someone know how to configure X like installation script does? I mean i need 3d redering with mesa, but dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't do it...
[11:36] <Lilacor> sacater: you should probably remove xserver from your startup configuration
[11:36] <yohanes_chin> thank you Lilacor, and SlimeyPete: how to edit my grub settings?
[11:36] <Jinchurei> lilacor - will that work with a burned SP2 xp disc?  i think the lappy is only running sp1 if that matters
[11:36] <mbudde> jakeg, oh yes - xhat-gnome removes some of options :/
[11:36] <crdlb> maop: what card?
[11:36] <jakeg> mbudde: grrrr!!!
[11:36] <Lilacor> Jinchurei: I'm not sure. I keep bartPE around just for emergencies
[11:36] <sacater> Lilacor: how would I go about doing that
[11:37] <prethalayam_> The download speeds in ubuntu is way too low compared to the ones i get in windows
[11:37] <maop> crdlb: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]  65x/M650/740 PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter
[11:37] <Jinchurei> Lilacor - this counts, i think.  I've been screwing around on this machine all day, and the fact is the error message is the most hopeful thing i've seen - a different glitch.
[11:37] <crdlb> maop: there's no (good) 3d support for that card
[11:37] <crdlb> mesa isn't any use for direct rendering by itself
[11:38] <albert> hi, is there a way of changing the refresh rate in the gfx-grub menu?
[11:38] <yohanes_chin> Lilacor: how or where to edit my grub settings for default boot?
[11:38] <maop> crdlb: it will ok if i had just mesa
[11:38] <albert> yohanes_chin, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:38] <lizili> everybody,should I install  a secure software for linux ?
[11:38] <Pijiu> man I don't get any of this iptables stuff lol ;/
[11:38] <crdlb> maop: mesa isn't a driver
[11:38] <yohanes_chin> albert: thanks for the info.
[11:39] <carlesoriol> CatalanTeam is doing an InstallParty. You can see it at: mplayer http://videoserver.ac.upc.es:920 and http://videoserver.ac.upc.es:921
[11:39] <Lilacor> Pijiu: I'm not positive that my answer will give you your desired results
[11:39] <lizili> fireware .etc
[11:39] <prethalayam_> How do i install wine using apt-get command line?
[11:39] <crdlb> maop: you have to set it to either sis or vesa
[11:39] <Pijiu> I'm not used to using terminal
[11:39] <albert> prethalayam_, sudo aptitude/apt-get install wine
[11:39] <albert> quite probably
[11:40] <prethalayam_> But i am not getting any files with that
[11:40] <jakeg> mbudde, thanks, 'aptitute install xchat' and i'm back!
[11:40] <maop> crdlb: 2d graphics  are ok, but 'glxgears' or 'glxinfo' will restart the xserver suddenly
[11:40] <Lilacor> sacater: are you not satisfied with dropping into the console with ctrl+alt+f6?
[11:40] <mbudde> jakeg, you're welcome :)
[11:40] <prethalayam_> it says package missing
[11:40] <lizili> everybody,should I install  a secure software to protect my linux ?
[11:40] <crdlb> maop: exactly, there's no good 3d driver for sis cards
[11:40] <albert> prethalayam_, do a aptitude update
[11:40] <Lilacor> lizili: that depends if you need it or not
[11:40] <albert> prethalayam_, then do aptitude search wine
[11:40] <albert> it should be there
[11:40] <Lilacor> Jinchurei: find a friend with winxp, get BartPE and then fix your boot.ini
[11:41] <Lilacor> Jinchurei: at LEAST chkdsk /f on your ntfs volume
[11:41] <albert> prethalayam_, did you edit your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[11:41] <maop> crdlb: but i have seen this machine rendering 3d with mesa (slow but its ok for me), i need to configure the card again for that
[11:41] <Jinchurei> lilacor - i'm building the iso now
[11:41] <prethalayam_> No
[11:41] <tribblies> i've installed the nvidia driver but it still won't detect my native resolution
[11:42] <prethalayam_> how do i do a apt update?
[11:42] <crdlb> maop: then put the livecd in and see what it does differently
[11:42] <Jinchurei> lilacor - Also, I plan to wipe the drive as soon as i can.  there have just been certain technical difficultied this far
[11:42] <albert> prethalayam_, do:   sudo aptitude update
[11:42] <maop> maop: i'll try, thanks
[11:42] <Orfeous> how can i access HFS filesystems? is it supported in latest generic kernel in feisty?
[11:42] <Lilacor> Jinchurei: I see
[11:42] <Lilacor> Orfeous: HFS+ or just hfs?
[11:42] <Orfeous> Lilacor: dont know.. MAc formatted iPod
[11:42] <lizili> I don't know ,I have one for XP, I surf internet only on linux
[11:43] <Lilacor> Orfeous: you should be able to mount it like any volume
[11:43] <Lilacor> Orfeous: I am able to mount an hfs+ volume without issue
[11:43] <JammasterJay> How do  i convert an iso file into a exe file?
[11:43] <prethalayam_> is libwine same as wine?
[11:43] <Lilacor> JammasterJay: you don't.
[11:43] <albert> JammasterJay, why would you want to do that?
[11:43] <Orfeous> Lilacor: ok, hmm.. when i insert my ipod it recognize it but i cant access the filetable
[11:43] <SlimeyPete> isos and exes do different things
[11:43] <lizili> Lilacor:I don't know ,I have one for XP, I surf internet and play games only on linux
[11:43] <Orfeous> partitiontable i mean
[11:43] <megas> #blinkenshell
[11:43] <JammasterJay> I downloaded a program, which was in bin & cue file formates
[11:44] <Lilacor> JammasterJay: you mount the iso file as a cdrom drive using the loopback device
[11:44] <SlimeyPete> you could put the iso in a self-extracting exe archive, I guess. Not sure how you do that under Linux though.
[11:44] <JammasterJay> I want to run it under wine
[11:44] <JammasterJay> (quickbooks)
[11:44] <SlimeyPete> JammasterJay: you need to mount the iso as a disk, or burn it to a cd/dvd then put the disc in the drive.
[11:44] <Lilacor> lizili: if you highly value your linux box, then secure it with something then
[11:44] <prethalayam_> albert: I still cant find wine
[11:44] <albert> JammasterJay, you have to mount it, not to install it, it's a virtual cd-rom, in some way
[11:44] <Lilacor> Jinchurei: I see
[11:44] <Orfeous> Lilacor: so what to do?
[11:44] <SlimeyPete> JammasterJay: a bin/cue or an iso is a "disk image" - it's a copy of a complete disc, in one handy file
[11:45] <albert> prethalayam_, go to console and type:   sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:45] <JammasterJay> So how do i open it in wine?
[11:45] <Orfeous> i want to convert the hfs/hfs+ to fat32 so ubuntu can read it
[11:45] <Lilacor> Orfeous: if you type in mkfs.<TAB> what happens? do you see mkfs.hfs there?
[11:45] <JammasterJay> be it bin/cue or iso?
[11:45] <Orfeous> Lilacor: i see nothing then :D
[11:45] <SlimeyPete> JammasterJay: mount it using loopback, as mentioned earlier, or burn it to a disc using your favourite cd writing program (this will give you a disk with all the individual files on it, including the .exe)
[11:45] <sacater> Lilacor: no, i need to start with X
[11:45] <shadowc001> OK
[11:45] <Cavallek> I have shared one folder. How I can now access it from other computer ? I have NFS sharing
[11:46] <shadowc001> i have a new problem, and this i believe will fix it all
[11:46] <JammasterJay> ok SlimeyPete, thx
[11:46] <Frogzoo> JammasterJay: you might have to use mdf2iso to convert it to iso, & then you can mount it with a loopback
[11:46] <prethalayam_> albert: should i uncomment something in that file
[11:46] <Lilacor> sacater: you can then remove the symlinks from your rc files
[11:46] <Lilacor> sacater: you can then remove the symlinks from your rc directories
[11:46] <shadowc001> i got the new drivers installed, and now everytime i reboot it says "nvidia kernel drivers not found" but i can reinstall it and it works till next reboot
[11:46] <Lilacor> sacater: read about the linux boot process and then the answer should be obvious to you
[11:46] <albert> prethalayam_, ye, maybe, i don't really know for sure, there should be two adress lines commented with a # infront, delete that do  alt + x and press y to save
[11:47] <Lilacor> sacater: or at least clearer
[11:47] <lizili> Lilacor: oh ,I see, thanks
[11:47] <tribblies> does anyone know how to get feistyfawn to recognise the native resolution of a samsung 205BW?
[11:47] <albert> prethalayam_, ctrl + x, ofcourse
[11:47] <Lilacor> shadowc001: maybe you need to have 'nvidia' listed under /etc/modules?
[11:47] <Frogzoo> fixres | tribblies
[11:47] <Lilacor> Orfeous: that's probably a good reason why you don't see anything
[11:48] <Orfeous> Lilacor: ok.. how to fix that? :)
[11:48] <albert> prethalayam_, you should read the info first, in case you don't want to use software of this repositorie
[11:48] <shadowc001> trying and rebooting
[11:48] <prethalayam_> albert: is libwine same as wine?
[11:49] <michel_> hello
[11:49] <ikonia> prethalayam_: not, its a wine library
[11:49] <chdragonfly> does ubuntu come with chinese characters? on the system preference keybaord layouts, i see japanese, korean but no chinese T_T
[11:49] <tribblies> frogzoo: i pretty new to this so what command do i enter into the terminal
[11:49] <prethalayam_> I dont find wine any where
[11:49] <theguy77> hey, booting the feisty cd for the first time on this laptop, i just get a sscreen full of buffer i/o errors, but te harddrive seems to be functional within windows? what am i missing?
[11:49] <ikonia> chdragonfly: I /think/ its on the alternate cd only
[11:49] <chdragonfly> ok, thanks ikonia
[11:49] <ikonia> chdragonfly: but I'm not certain of that
[11:49] <Lilacor> Orfeous: install hfstools or anything related with hfs on your system
[11:50] <prethalayam_> will synaptic package manager contain wine?
[11:50] <Orfeous> Lilacor: i have
[11:50] <michel_> Have a Problem with installing a packet. It told me that the package needs (Python (<= 2.4.99) and on my System is 2.5.1~rc1-0ubuntu3. Any tips?
[11:50] <albert> prethalayam_, if you can download this, you can probably download wine too
[11:50] <albert> prethalayam_, may, you just should go to the wine homepage and read a manual about the whole wine-thing
[11:50] <albert> prethalayam_, seems to me you're not quite prepared
[11:50] <theguy77> ive tried defragging and scanning my drive
[11:50] <ikonia> theguy77: maybe the drivers for the chipset do not exist on your ubuntu install
[11:50] <Orfeous> hfsutils and hfsplus
[11:50] <ikonia> prethalayam_: ignore that albert said
[11:50] <albert> well
[11:50] <ikonia> !wine >prethalaym_
[11:50] <Orfeous> reboot, brb
[11:51] <Lilacor> Orfeous: did you try to manually mount the volume?
[11:51] <prethalayam_> I did install programms like , azurues,xchat etc
[11:51] <jxxxt> albert: is apt-get  and aptitude  the same thing exactly??
[11:51] <ikonia> prethalayam_: read the message from ubot about the ubuntu info on wine
[11:51] <albert> jxxxt, no
[11:51] <ikonia> jxxxt: aptitude is just another front end for dpkg - just as apt-get is
[11:51] <Frogzoo> tribblies: read the pm from the bot
[11:51] <Frogzoo> !fixres > tribblies
[11:51] <albert> ikonia, i'm just trying to help :(
[11:51] <ikonia> albert: I didn't say you wheren't
[11:51] <iarwain_> jxxxt: aptitude handles dependancies better when you remove stuff (meta-packages come to mind ^^ )
[11:51] <albert> ikonia, and whine isn't just "install and go"
[11:52] <ikonia> albert: I know its not
[11:52] <ikonia> iarwain_: aptitude and apt-get are both just interfaces to dpkg - they both do the same thing
[11:52] <Frogzoo> wine's pretty good for what it does
[11:52] <iarwain_> ikonia: i thought that aptitude install recommended packages aswell? (could be wrong though)
[11:53] <jxxxt> albert: I always apt-get things so is this correct or do I need to aptitude them?
[11:53] <ikonia> iarwain_: no
[11:53] <ikonia> jxxxt: they both do the same thing
[11:53] <jatt> (there is nothing wrong in using apt-get for updates)
[11:53] <ikonia> I know this
[11:53] <jxxxt> ikonia: That is what I was asking
[11:53] <claesson92> My sound won't work! It works just fine in windows, and it worked when i used Ubuntu before. I reinstalled Ubuntu, and now i wont get any sound. What might be wrong? (I know i asked this before, but i has scrollback lines at 300, sp i don't know what you guys answered.)
[11:54] <mbudde> Apt-get vs. Aptitude: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/aptitude
[11:54] <ikonia> jxxxt: I've said 3 times, aptitude and apt-get are different tools that both do the same thing to interface with dpkg which is the package manager
[11:54] <jxxxt> ikonia: Sorry to be a bit slow :-((
[11:54] <ikonia> jxxxt: its not a problem
[11:55] <Frogzoo> claesson92: check in prefs -> sound -> volume control for mutes
[11:55] <jxxxt> ikonia: Cool
[11:55] <Pijiu> anyone got an xbox360 working on xboxlive via a wired connection to an ubuntu box
[11:56] <ikonia> Pijiu: it won't be a problem if you have the network routing/proxying/forwarding setup correctly
[11:57] <Pijiu> ikonia: I have no idea where to begin
[11:57] <Frogzoo> Pijiu: there's linux howtos on the net
[11:57] <claesson92> Frogzoo: Microphone is the only one that's muted.
[11:57] <ikonia> Pijiu: tldp.org for a basic introduction to iptables and the ubuntu wiki has some examples of how to impliment them into an ubuntu box
[11:57] <fongo> bijour a tous
[11:58] <Frogzoo> fongo: en anglais ici svp
[11:58] <mIgUeL_sAn> i want to install the kde in my ubuntu, how would i do it?
[11:58] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: install the kde-desktop meta package through the package manager
[11:58] <jxxxt> Pijui: Yes.. wlug.org.nz search the wiki for more info
[11:58] <fongo> escuse me i am a noob
[11:59] <claesson92> mIgUeL_sAn: Search for KDE in Synaptic. (I think)
[11:59] <Frogzoo> !fr | fongo

[11:59] <pai> hi. my laptop has built-in bluetooth. how do i check and use it in feisty?
[12:00] <Frogzoo> !bluetooth
[12:00] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[12:00] <shadowc001> lilacor: ok its loaded, but its 1/2 the size in lsmod and doesnt work on a reboot
[12:00] <shadowc001> in other words it will load it after reboot, but its wrong, something isnt right
[12:00] <claesson92> Frogzoo: What might be wrong with my sound?
[12:00] <LeventO> hello all can someone tell me why iwpriv doesn't let me set my EncrypType=WPA, it gives me:
[12:00] <shadowc001> i have to reinstall for it to work
[12:00] <LeventO> Interface doesn't accept private ioctl...
[12:00] <LeventO> set (8BE2): Invalid argument
[12:01] <ikonia> LeventO: sounds like encyption isn't working/supported
[12:01] <ikonia> LeventO: or you may need specific user permssions
[12:01] <Frogzoo> !sound | claesson92
[12:01] <ubotu> claesson92: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[12:02] <mIgUeL_sAn> thanks guys
[12:02] <shadowc001> anyone else had problems with updating nvidia drivers?
[12:02] <ikonia> shadowc001: just use the ones in the ubuntu repos's its not great to get the ones direct from the nvidia site
[12:02] <Shaddox> Hello everyone. I need help setting up my cpufreqd, for some reason it isn't working.
[12:03] <shadowc001> ikonia: i am now...
[12:03] <ikonia> shadowc001: you are what ?
[12:03] <ikonia> Shaddox: does your chip support it ?
[12:03] <shadowc001> ikonia: useing the ones for ubuntu
[12:03] <shadowc001> er from
[12:03] <LeventO> hello all, can someone tell me why iwpriv does not allow me to set  EncrypType=WPA, it give me:
[12:03] <LeventO> Interface doesn't accept private ioctl...
[12:03] <LeventO> set (8BE2): Invalid argument
[12:03] <ikonia> shadowc001: great, then you should have no cause ot update
[12:03] <ikonia> LeventO: I've told you 2 possabilities
[12:03] <Shaddox> ikonia: It always could be set dynamically when I was on Kubuntu/KDE.
[12:04] <chdragonfly> Im totally new to linux and just installed ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04 today and everything on the ubuntu side works. when i tried to boot into windows, it just shows a blank screen and does nothing. Is this fixable and how? The system recovery works.
[12:04] <shadowc001> ikonia: the standard ones wont go higher than 800x600 so im useing the nvidia-glx-new
[12:04] <ikonia> Shaddox: ok, thats reasonable to assume
[12:04] <MarcoPau> hello everybody, I just installed ubuntu on this machine and I don't really understand what the problem is with the audio... but it's mute
[12:04] <ikonia> shadowc001: what video card do you have ?
[12:04] <Shaddox> ikonia: I have a problem with my heat shield, if my processor goes full-speed, it overheats and shuts itself down.
[12:04] <Frogzoo> shadowc001: what doesn't work?
[12:04] <shadowc001> 5700 Ultra
[12:04] <LeventO> ikonia, sorry, which two?
[12:04] <ikonia> LeventO: scoll up
[12:04] <MarcoPau> from XMMS, I see the alsa plugin, the correct device, the volumes are up, but no sound
[12:05] <Frogzoo> Shaddox: what doesn't work (soz shadowc001 )
[12:05] <SlimeyPete> chdragonfly: I don't know the exact answer, but many Windows boot problems have something to do with the contents of boot.ini on the Windows drive - you might want to google around a bit and check that the contents of your boot.ini look OK
[12:05] <ikonia> shadowc001: its possible that card is now classed as "legacy", I'm not sure, try the ubuntu-legacy package ?
[12:05] <crdlb> ikonia: it's not
[12:05] <shadowc001> frogzoo: ok, recap :D when i use the standard nvidia driver i cannot (i was here for 4 hrs trying to) change my resolution higher than 800x600
[12:05] <crdlb> the fx series is supported by nvidia-glx-new
[12:05] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia: how would i find the kde desktop in terminal using apt??
[12:05] <LeventO> ikonia, i got disconnected before, i didn't get it, could you please repeat it for me
[12:05] <ikonia> crdlb: thank you I wasn't sure
[12:06] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: I told you the exact package name to search for, "kde-desktop"
[12:06] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia: i mean the package to install
[12:06] <shadowc001> frogzoo: so i tried the "new" drivers and now i have to reinstall em every reboot for it to work cause the kernel driver isnt right
[12:06] <Frogzoo> !fixres > shadowc001
[12:06] <chdragonfly> is boo.ini the thing you get when typing in gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:06] <ikonia> chdragonfly: boot.ini is a windows files system file
[12:06] <crdlb> shadowc001: what do you mean the kernel driver isn't right?
[12:06] <Shaddox> ikonia: I installed cpufreqd and modified my cpufreqd.conf but it still says 1.99GHz
[12:06] <SlimeyPete> chdragonfly: boot.ini is in the root of your c:\ drive in windows.
[12:06] <ikonia> shadowc001: how have you tried to change teh resolution
[12:07] <Frogzoo> Shaddox: do you want to manually set your mhz ?
[12:07] <SlimeyPete> chdragonfly: it's purely a windows thing. Windows uses it as a guide when booting (after grub has told windows to boot
[12:07] <shadowc001> ok im gonna /wrists now
[12:07] <SlimeyPete> )
[12:07] <shadowc001> frogzoo: i said i was HERE for 4 hrs cause i have tried everything
[12:07] <Shaddox> Frogzoo: Yes, at 1000MHz.
[12:07] <ikonia> shadowc001: instead of wasting time with "/wrists" answer the questions to get better support
[12:07] <close2__> hello, i would just need a few ideas, how to debug the following problem
[12:07] <SlimeyPete> chdragonfly: sometimes grub and boot.ini sorta... disagree ... about the locations of partitions etc and this can cause problems for Windows
[12:08] <close2__> my live-cd works, but booting from my hd, takes ~10 minutes
[12:08] <shadowc001> i have read that website over 100x
[12:08] <mohkohn> Hello I have installed Feisty on an iMac. Finally got the wireless working with ndiswrapper but have sound trouble
[12:08] <Frogzoo> Shaddox: sudo chmod +s cpufreq-selector    (I take no responsibility if this results in your box being hacked)
[12:08] <mohkohn> There is sound but it is very faint
[12:08] <Toma-> !install
[12:08] <Bogaurd> I'm playing with smartmontools - what does the 'automatic offline testing' option do? does this mean the drive needs to be unmounted or something?
[12:08] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[12:08] <close2__> i removed splash and quiet from grub and the system hangs twice
[12:08] <Shaddox> Huh? What do you mean?
[12:08] <ikonia> shadowc001: answer the questions instead of moaning about how long you've been searching, people here can help
[12:08] <shadowc001> ikonia: what question?
[12:08] <mohkohn> I have all the volume controls fully up
[12:09] <LeventO> ikonia, sorry could you repeat the 2 possibilities, i can't see them because my irc client stuffed up and i had to restart it
[12:09] <ikonia> shadowc001: what methods have you used to try to set the resolution, what is the error message in your xorg log file to show why its sticking on 800x600
[12:09] <Shaddox> Frogzoo: What do you mean? :/
[12:09] <close2__> once at "reading files needed to boot"
[12:10] <ikonia> LeventO: encyption on your card isn't supported through the driver, or you need a higher user level permisson to set it
[12:10] <shadowc001> ikonia: there is no error msg at all, and under the nvidia-settings it just says "auto" and a greyd out "off" for resolution settings
[12:10] <close2__> and a second time 2 lines later "preparing restricted drivers" (or something similar)
[12:10] <shadowc001> and my monitor is labled as "@@@"
[12:10] <chdragonfly> SlimeyPete: i don't see the boot.ini file, im running linux right now since i can't get on windows T_T
[12:10] <mohkohn> I note in alsa mixer there is no green '00' like in the other settingstings
[12:10] <mohkohn> under PCM
[12:10] <ikonia> shadowc001: right so you've not actually done much 1.) try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg 2.) view the log for the supported resolutions to see why its sticking on 800x600
[12:10] <close2__> imo dmesg looks fine
[12:11] <Frogzoo> shadowc001: to change your cpu mhz, you need root permission, the chmod +s command will give the cpufreq app permission to change frequency
[12:11] <Shaddox> Frogzoo, i mean about the being hacked?
[12:11] <LeventO> ikonia, i use sudo for the commands, i assusme that give super user permissions, and i know my card supports it because i can use it with WPA encryption on a windows computer, could there be a problem with the drivers?
[12:11] <SlimeyPete> chdragonfly: it should be in c:\ on your windows drive. If it isn't there, then that's probably your problem ;) (unless you're running Vista... am not sure whether boot.ini exists in vista)
[12:11] <ikonia> LeventO: just because something works under windows, does not mean its supported under linux
[12:12] <mohkohn> Card is HDA Intel Chip is Realtek ALC885
[12:12] <shadowc001> ikonia: mabye i just diddnt have a person who knew how to help :D
[12:12] <mohkohn>  View: [Playback]  Capture  All
[12:12] <LeventO> ikonia, thanks, i'll try setting my router to a different encryption method and see if that works
[12:12] <ikonia> shadowc001: try what I've said
[12:12] <Pijiu> is there a way to edit iptables via a gui
[12:12] <mohkohn>  Item: Front [dB gain=0.00, 0.00]
[12:12] <ikonia> shadowc001: also read this message from ubotu
[12:12] <ikonia> !fixres >shadowc001
[12:13] <al> hola
[12:13] <shadowc001> ikonia: i have read that over and over
[12:13] <ikonia> Pijiu: nothing is as accurate as the command line
[12:13] <mohkohn> Is that normal for nothing to be there under PCM?
[12:13] <ikonia> shadowc001: then how have you not done dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[12:13] <ikonia> !fixres >ikonia
[12:13] <Frogzoo> shadowc001: suid permission is a security weakness, which is why ubuntu doesn't ship with the +s permission
[12:13] <al> alguien me puede echar una mano para un principiante de ubuntu
[12:14] <Shaddox> Frogzoo: Is there a way to make it secure?
[12:14] <ikonia> shadowc001: if you have read that page over and over again, why have you not done some of the things it says ?
[12:14] <shadowc001> ikonia: i have
[12:14] <ikonia> shadowc001: youve done dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[12:14] <shadowc001> ikonia: then it was sugguested to me to try the nvidia-xconfig
[12:15] <ikonia> shadowc001: youve done dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[12:15] <shadowc001> ikonia: but no one told me to check the log about the res, i forgot about it doing the ww thing
[12:15] <ikonia> shadowc001: youve done dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[12:15] <shadowc001> ikonia: yes
[12:15] <LeventO> al, no puedo ayudarte, proque no se much de ubuntu, i pienso que no hay mucha gente aqui que pueden hablar espanol, va a #ubuntu-es
[12:15] <gorski_> My ubuntu do not recoqnise 4 speaker system. Help?
[12:15] <ikonia> view the logs then
[12:16] <shadowc001> ikonia: i am in the process of removing the new drivers and reinstalling the old ones the "enable restricted driver" way
[12:17] <ikonia> shadowc001: you said you where using the ubuntu ones
[12:17] <Frogzoo> Shaddox: sure, don't enable suid
[12:18] <shadowc001> ikonia: yes, but u came in right after that, they wernt working after a reboot so i tried the nvidia ones from the website, and i had to reinstall it every reboot but they worked fine
[12:18] <Shaddox> Frogzoo: Says it can't find cpufreq-selector.
[12:18] <mohkohn> Punk sounds terrible quiet! I want my sound loud! :)
[12:19] <mrec_> "make-kpkg --revision=2.6.20-linuxtv-15.27.1 kernel_image" is this all I have to do for building an ubuntu/debian kernelimage?
[12:20] <mIgUeL_sAn> how would i know what are the running daemon in my ubuntu?
[12:20] <shadowc001> ikonia: ok now its saying the kernal version is 7xxx and the glx is 96xx so its a mismatch
[12:21] <crdlb> shadowc001: that's fixable
[12:21] <aliask> I'm looking at changing ubuntu's behaviour with selecting text with the control-shift-back/forward key combo - I want it to break when it reaches a special character, not just a space. Is this possible?
[12:21] <crdlb> shadowc001: first install nvidia-glx-new
[12:21] <crdlb> that's the newest driver you can use
[12:22] <variant> aliask: yes, it's free software. that feature is probably hard coded so it's possible if you can program
[12:22] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia:  how would i know what are the running daemon task in my ubuntu?
[12:22] <crdlb> shadowc001: then set in /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common, DISABLED_MODULES="nvidia_legacy nvidia"
[12:23] <shadowc001> crdlb: that is probably the line i have been searching for all night :D
[12:23] <chdragonfly> i seriously can't find boot.ini, in the \c; windows, i see desktop.ini and bootstat.dat
[12:23] <thingy> mIgUeL_sAn, "ps ax" give you a list of running processes...if you are after a list of apps listening for connetions than netstat -pan. Install a programm called htop which is a nicer version of the top program which will give you a good idea on what is running on your system
[12:23] <aliask> variant: So it's hard coded? Do you know what module, and how easy it'll be to replace?
[12:23] <rebegin> hey,
[12:23] <Carroarmato0> Hi, I'd like to install the SMP enabled kernel to use the hyperthreading functions of my intel processor.... but the kernel names in Synaptic confuse me... got any help?
[12:24] <SlimeyPete> Carroarmato0: what are you running? feisty?
[12:24] <close2__> is there something similiar to init-status, or something like this?  showing all init.d scripts and there states?
[12:24] <Carroarmato0> SlimeyPete, yes I do run Feisty
[12:24] <SlimeyPete> Carroarmato0: then you're already running SMP. It's installed by default.
[12:25] <zaphands> Hello. How do I stop sound juicier from showing up? It interrupts the burning process when I try to burn an audio cd.
[12:25] <Carroarmato0> SlimeyPete, how can I be sure....  I looked at the /proc/cpuinfo  file  and it list indeed  2 processors with "siblings 2" and "cpu core 1"
[12:26] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: what do you mean
[12:26] <Ratkid132> hey guys :)
[12:26] <Dante24> Hello
[12:26] <SlimeyPete> Carroarmato0: that's correct. As far as I remember, HT processors appear as one core, two siblings
[12:27] <Carroarmato0> SlimeyPete, so I basically don't need to change anything?
[12:27] <SlimeyPete> Carroarmato0: indeed
[12:27] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia: what are the available daemon running in my system
[12:27] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: for what ?
[12:27] <Carroarmato0> SlimeyPete, cool! ^^
[12:27] <Ratkid132> I'm trying to copy some files from one dir to a dir higher in the same tree, it has to be done as root, could someone help me?
[12:27] <mIgUeL_sAn> i mean that is currently running in my system
[12:27] <shadowc001> crdlb: i am now bowing down to u :D
[12:28] <ikonia> Ratkid132: higher in the same tree ?
[12:28] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: ps -ef
[12:28] <shadowc001> crdlb: thanks man that was what i was looking for
[12:28] <Carroarmato0> SlimeyPete, thx for the help!
[12:28] <SlimeyPete> ratkid: use "sudo mv <filename> <destination>" in a terminal
[12:28] <tribblies> hey I need help i just added native resolution support for my monitor by reconfiguring xorg but now half the windows don't show up like terminal and the close-bars with the x buttons dont either
[12:28] <SlimeyPete> Carroarmato0: no problem
[12:28] <Orfeous> Lilacor: back again
[12:28] <Ratkid132> ikonia: from .wine/dosdevices/e:/bf2minicd to .wine/dosdevices/e:
[12:29] <shadowc001> ikonia: and thanks for ur help too, i appreaciate it
[12:29] <ikonia> Ratkid132: thats the same path
[12:29] <chdragonfly> SlimeyPete: i found the boot.ini file, what should i do?
[12:29] <mIgUeL_sAn> thanks ikonia
[12:29] <Ratkid132> is the destination relative to where you are in terminal SlimeyPete or is it from home?
[12:29] <ikonia> shadowc001: not a problem, please crdlb fixed it
[12:29] <Ratkid132> couldn't get my words out ikonia
[12:29] <ikonia> Ratkid132: relative to what you are
[12:29] <ikonia> where
[12:30] <SlimeyPete> Ratkid132: it's relative, unless you give a full path (eg /usr/local/bin/mydirectory or something - the first "/" indicates the beginning of the filesystem)
[12:30] <Ratkid132> i want to move multiple files, can I say move everything in a dir or do I have to do it one at a time
[12:30] <ikonia> Ratkid132: /*
[12:30] <ikonia> moves everything under /
[12:30] <Ratkid132> thanks
[12:30] <ikonia> for example
[12:30] <Ratkid132> should've thought of that
[12:30] <ikonia> Ratkid132: you need cp -R to include directories
[12:30] <Ratkid132> bbs see if it works
[12:31] <SlimeyPete> chdragonfly: I'm afraid I can't give you details but you'll want to concentrate mainly on the partition numbers.... google around a bit and see if you can find some info on whether they're correct or not
[12:31] <lizili> the icon of firestarter Is appear on the taskdiagram when it is working ?
[12:31] <prethalayam_> How do i uninstall a program in ubuntu?
[12:31] <Misled> In Openoffice how do I sent the "sendto" to use Opera?  Or when I click an email  link in a document . it doesnt open Opera mail..
[12:31] <ikonia>  prethalayam_use the package manager to remove it
[12:32] <xushi> hi all
[12:32] <sdac> this is probably an obvious thing...but i can't find anything on google about where are the icons for programs stored ?  Where can i find the image for the firefox icon and other such software so i can create shortcuts for them ?
[12:32] <xushi> how can i get my ubuntu to permanently take an ip address and connect to my wireless without editing it through the GUI witn every reboot ?
[12:32] <ikonia> sdac: they are kept within the themes they are part of
[12:33] <ikonia> xushi: disable dhcp and set a static ip
[12:33] <sdac> ikonia:  "the themes they are part of"  ?   im not sure what you mean there
[12:33] <sdac> i am using xubuntu fiesty
[12:33] <ikonia> sdac: /usr/share/themes for example
[12:34] <PrimoTurbo> what exactly is a symbolic link? I'm installing Q3, I wanted it to be installed in the home directory under Games folder now the installer is asking me where to put the symbolic link...
[12:34] <Ratkid132> hmmm problem ikonia, its not actually in that dir, the dir is a link to another folder
[12:34] <wafflepox> PrimoTurbo: a symbolic link is a file that acts as a pointer to another file
[12:34] <ikonia> Ratkid132: it should follow symlinks
[12:34] <Slart> PrimoTurbo: it's like a shortcut in windows
[12:34] <Ratkid132> hmmm
[12:34] <xushi> ikonia: any documentation or tutorial on how to do that ?
[12:34] <wafflepox> any operation performed on a symlink is performed on the file it points to
[12:34] <Slart> a shortcut on steroids then =)
[12:34] <PrimoTurbo> where is a good place to put it?
[12:35] <ikonia> xushi: documentation on what ?
[12:35] <Ratkid132> I'll try again
[12:35] <bbrazil> wafflepox: not so. What about unlink()?
[12:35] <PrimoTurbo> it's asking /usr/local/bin/
[12:35] <wafflepox> bbrazil: caught out XD
[12:35] <xushi> ikonia: on how to disable dhcp and add it staticly on ubuntu
[12:35] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia: how can i view all the daemon that is currently running?
[12:35] <wafflepox>  /usr/local/bin is good
[12:35] <ikonia> xushi: I'm sure there is advice on the wiki
[12:35] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: I've told you 3 times now
[12:35] <wafflepox> broedje: you there?
[12:35] <Slart> PrimoTurbo: sounds like a good idea.. so you can run it from the command line without changing directory
[12:35] <bbrazil> wafflepox: there's a few syscalls that take an option to affect the symlink too
[12:35] <xushi> thanks
[12:35] <PrimoTurbo> I see
[12:35] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: you even thanked me for telling you
[12:35] <izaq> hello :)
[12:35] <broedje> yea
[12:35] <broedje> wafflepox:
[12:36] <wafflepox> hey broedje
[12:36] <wafflepox> you helped me yesterday with my p900
[12:36] <wafflepox> any chance you still have that link you gave me?
[12:36] <wafflepox> i don't have logging turned on and I lost it XD
[12:36] <izaq> this firest time to enter here :$
[12:36] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia: waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ikonia i'm sorry, i was really really busy and kind of tired
[12:36] <comfortably__num> Hi, I'd like to know if there is any chance to get DRI working with open source drivers for my ati x1100 card (based on x200m chipset), given that when I boot with a feisty livecd I get no DRI
[12:36] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: ?
[12:36] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia: thanks a lot
[12:36] <Ratkid132> ikonia: this is what it gave me. matt@matt-desktop:~/.wine/dosdevices/e:/bf2minicd$ sudo cp /* /.wine/dosdevices/e:/
[12:36] <Ratkid132> cp: target `/.wine/dosdevices/e:/' is not a directory: No such file or directory
[12:36] <crdlb> comfortably__num: no
[12:37] <ikonia> Ratkid132: its because you've got e:
[12:37] <ikonia> Ratkid132: its because you've got e:\
[12:37] <Slart> Ratkid132: or because there is a /wine in there
[12:37] <ikonia> you need to esacpe or quote the "\" char
[12:37] <comfortably__num> crdlb: thanks anyway
[12:37] <ikonia> oops
[12:37] <Ratkid132> so I need an \ at the end?
[12:37] <ikonia> Ratkid132: ignore what I just said

[12:38] <ikonia> Ratkid132: where is .wine located  ?
[12:38] <Orfeous> Lilacor: seems like it is HFS+
[12:38] <Ratkid132> in the place where cd $HOME takes you (Home?)
[12:38] <dappis> ikonia: all user settings are located in users home-directory
[12:38] <gorski> My Ubuntu does not recoqnise 4 speaker sound system. Help?
[12:38] <dappis> /home/user/.wine/
[12:38] <PrimoTurbo> I want to chmod a directory and all the files in it so I can read/write what the exact command?
[12:38] <ikonia> Ratkid132: yup, and you've done /.wine not /home/$user/.wine
[12:38] <Ratkid132> what dappis said
[12:38] <ikonia> dappis: I know this
[12:39] <Ratkid132> ah ok
[12:39] <dappis> you could try "locate .wine"
[12:39] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia: i've heard a lot of good things about linux that's why i'm kinda busy finding out what's good of it
[12:39] <ikonia> Ratkid132: so its complaining because the file doesn't exist in /.wine
[12:39] <ikonia> dappis: we know where it is, the location is not a problem
[12:39] <dappis> ok
[12:39] <close2__> PrimoTurbo: chmod -R      (see man chmod)
[12:39] <mIgUeL_sAn> ikonia: sorry dude i forgot to thank you earlier
[12:40] <ikonia> mIgUeL_sAn: you've thanked me 10 times, its fine
[12:40] <Ratkid132> seems to have done it
[12:40] <mIgUeL_sAn> :)
[12:40] <DarthShrine> gnome-power-manager has managed to detach itself from the notification area. How can I get it back in?
[12:41] <close2__> how do i find out, why my boot-process hangs
[12:41] <dappis> logout and login, usualle does the trick
[12:41] <Ratkid132> oh man
[12:41] <PrimoTurbo> I have a better question how do I make it so a root owned directory becomes a user based directory
[12:41] <Ratkid132> it didn't work: /* copies everything in the file system -.-
[12:41] <Frogzoo> close2__: remove the 'quiet & splash" options from the grub line - hit e from grub prompt to edit, hit b to boot edited line
[12:41] <Ratkid132> should've just been *
[12:42] <close2__> Frogzoo: done
[12:42] <Frogzoo> PrimoTurbo: sudo chown user:user /path/to/folder
[12:42] <shadowc001> hrm, i have another question... this ones not so hard :D
[12:43] <close2__> it hangs twice, once while "Reading files needed to boot" and then 2 lines further "Preparing restricted drivers"? (not sure, running livecd at the moment)
[12:43] <shadowc001> i have an old shuttle xpc nforce2, but it has the soundstorm dolby digital live out, does that work in ubuntu the same as it does in windows?
[12:43] <PrimoTurbo> Frogzoo: that worked but how about doing not only to the directory but all the files in the directory
[12:43] <PrimoTurbo> and folders
[12:43] <Frogzoo> close2__: you also can boot in recovery mode, & run the init scripts by hand
[12:43] <ikonia> shadowc001: check the hardware compatability list
[12:43] <close2__> PrimoTurbo: -R (or -r see manpage)
[12:44] <shadowc001> basically, in windows i can set it to have stereo outputs use the dolby digital live to tell my reciever to replicate the channels to all left/right channels
[12:44] <Frogzoo> PrimoTurbo: sudo chown -R user:user /path/to/folder
[12:44] <broedje> wafflepox:
[12:44] <broedje> letz go
[12:44] <Ratkid132> gah its being a pain
[12:45] <PrimoTurbo> Thanks that worked :)
[12:46] <Ratkid132> what im TRYING to do: mount an .mdf file in mnt/bf2minicd then link that to WINEs e: drive so BF2 can actually run. Whats happening: the e: drive is mounting the folder, not the contents of the folder. so its e:/bf2minicd/
[12:46] <rebegin> i got kernel panic randomly, i checked system log, but nothing has found, where else should i check? i use feisty, on a fujits-siemens a7640 laptop, there wasn't any problem with previous kubuntu versions. any suggestions?
[12:46] <Mavvie> let's see the FAQ first before I ask how to enable services at startup :-)
[12:47] <Frogzoo> rebegin: #1 culprit is vid cards, #2 usb hal/nonsense
[12:47] <rebegin> Frogzoo: could you tell me more please what are you asking? i've got sis video card, no compiz/beryl
[12:47] <Frogzoo> Mavvie: sys -> admin -> service
[12:48] <rebegin> Frogzoo: what about that hal stuff? :D
[12:48] <Mavvie> Frogzoo_away: I only have a command line :-)
[12:49] <DevilChaos> hello
[12:50] <Mavvie> aha, it's a apt-system.
[12:50] <ikonia> Ratkid132: you mount a filesystem not a folder or file (unless its an iso image)
[12:50] <DevilChaos> just installed ubuntu and need a little assistance please how do i config root and password install only let me conf normal user
[12:50] <DevilChaos> ?
[12:50] <ikonia> !sudo >devilchaos
[12:51] <Ratkid132> its an .mdf image which is basically an iso image
[12:51] <ikonia> !root >devilchaos
[12:51] <ikonia> Ratkid132: and what command are you using to mount it
[12:51] <DevilChaos> no need for root user then?
[12:51] <m0u5e> does anyone know how to have my desktop resolution switch to * whenever i am running a game with * resolution
[12:51] <ikonia> DevilChaos: correct
[12:51] <Ratkid132> matt@matt-desktop:~$ sudo mount -r -t udf -o loop blh-bf2.mdf  /mnt/bf2minicd/
[12:52] <ikonia> Ratkid132: thats correct, its mounting that image as a file system on /mnt/b2fminicd
[12:53] <Ratkid132> ok well I want it to do it on cdrom0 i think (thats where e: is linked to in .wine dir)
[12:53] <Ratkid132> is it possible to do that?
[12:53] <graveson> what can i use to tage video files ?
[12:53] <ikonia> Ratkid132: cdrom0 is a device file
[12:54] <DevilChaos> that good in a way but makes my life more difficult having to learn it when id just type in the password then away id go
[12:54] <graveson> *tag
[12:54] <Ratkid132> I take it that means i can't link to it then ikonia
[12:54] <ikonia> Ratkid132: not really
[12:54] <OuZo> how do i trans code a avi to burn a video dvd? thanks
[12:55] <DevilChaos> so what would i enter if i wanted deselect to run as root or sudo as it were?
[12:55] <Ratkid132> ok but I can make a new folder in dosdevices and link THAT to the bf2 cd...
[12:55] <ikonia> Ratkid132: well, thats not true - you can link to cdrom0 - but you can't mount on it as its a block device
[12:55] <Ratkid132> excuse me a moment
[12:55] <ikonia> DevilChaos: pardon ?
[12:56] <Mavvie> what is the apt- command to search for a string in the available packages?
[12:56] <DevilChaos> sudo deselect
[12:56] <DevilChaos> ?
[12:56] <ikonia> Mavvie: apt-cache
[12:56] <ikonia> DevilChaos: deselect what ?
[12:57] <Ratkid132> ikonia: It won't let me choose make link on the bf2minicd folder. I think it's because it's mounted?
[12:57] <Mavvie> ikonia: aha, got it.
[12:57] <ikonia> Ratkid132: what command are you trying to do
[12:57] <DevilChaos> then it asks for a password i dont have root password just user password
[12:57] <Mavvie> ikonia: was confused because "apt-cache search bacula" didn't show anything.
[12:57] <ikonia> Ratkid132: keep in mind that you've just mounted an image
[12:57] <py__> hello
[12:57] <ikonia> DevilChaos: enter the user password, thats how sudo works
[12:58] <graveson> what can i use to tag video files ?
[12:58] <DevilChaos> what installer do you use for ubuntu aptitude ?
[12:58] <Ratkid132> rather than linking it, can I just mount it in the wine folder?
[12:58] <nox-Hand> Why does the Ubuntu 7.04 LiveCD not want to detect my MX Revolution USB mouse? I have no mouse
[12:59] <jrib> nox-Hand: "lsusb" turns up nothing?
[12:59] <py__> I've got a laptop with a 802.11a/b/g/n board integrated. I installed it through ndiswrapper, and I can see it running iwconfig. However, it seems to be in 802.11a mode, and I want to get it to work in 802.11b/g mode. How can I do that?
[12:59] <Ratkid132> nox-Hand: I'm amazed you navigated this far without a mouse :O
[12:59] <ikonia> DevilChaos: aptitude is a package manager, it installs packages for you
[01:00] <ikonia> Ratkid132: have you read the wine howto on the ubuntu wiki?
[01:01] <Ratkid132> nope - I really should shouldn't I
[01:01] <ikonia> !wine >ratkid132
[01:01] <Ratkid132> in the meantime, a couple of other questions
[01:01] <ikonia> Ratkid132: you're just making it hard and a bi of a mess, just read that howto and it walks you through it
[01:01] <Ratkid132> cool
[01:02] <Ratkid132> other questions: Is there a way of auto-mounting partitions when i boot linux? atm I have to remount all my NTFS partitions every time I start the PC
[01:03] <Ratkid132> anyone?
[01:03] <ikonia> Ratkid132: use your /etc/fstab
[01:04] <nox-Hand> Ratkid132: there is a handicap keyboard mouse thing, but I just used another laptop ;) You can do ANYthing without a mouse ;)
[01:04] <graveson> what can i use to tag video files ?
[01:04] <juan> hola
[01:05] <broedje> wafflepox!!
[01:05] <lupusbeta> on ubuntu release 5.10 i want to install tightvncviewer 1.3.9 it says "vncviewer: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by vncviewer)
[01:05] <lupusbeta> "
[01:05] <nox-Hand> jrib: No, lsusb gives nothing. I have tried putting it in another USB port and still gives off nothing - I also tried the mouse in another PC where it works fine. It has worked perfectly before, so I know not what is wrong.
[01:06] <lupusbeta> is there a way ? maybe Java version?
[01:06] <ikonia> lupusbeta: how did you try to install vncviewer
[01:06] <lupusbeta> ikonia, i used alien on a 1.3.9.rpm for Fedora6
[01:06] <jrib> nox-Hand: indeed mine works as soon as I plug it in as well.  Any dmesg output when you plug it in?
[01:07] <SlimeyPete> lupusbeta: you need a different version of glibc. But don't install one - it'll probably break most of your system.
[01:07] <Ratkid132> ikonia: there is nothing in my etc folder called fstab (maybe I missunderstood you?
[01:07] <ikonia> lupusbeta: there you go, SOOOooooo many problems. 1.) redhat uses different package versions / dependencies 2.) you're not using the package manager so it may not be aware of all the dependencies 3.) bottom line is glibc is not the same on your system as it expects
[01:07] <nox-Hand> jrib: sec
[01:07] <ikonia> Ratkid132: show me "ls -la /etc/fstab"
[01:08] <py__> how can I change my wifi card from 802.11a to 802.11b/g mode? It supports both, but is in 802.11a mode atm.
[01:08] <wwwerty> How can i remove all the drives on the desktop to a diffrent location
[01:08] <lupusbeta> ikonia, alien on sourcecode directly?
[01:09] <nox-Hand> jrib: nope, might just be another 7.04 liveCD flaw - found a few of em :P
[01:09] <Ratkid132> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 491 2007-05-19 09:55 /etc/fstab
[01:09] <ikonia> lupusbeta: both
[01:09] <ikonia> Ratkid132: right - so there it is
[01:09] <ikonia> Ratkid132: next time look properly
[01:09] <nox-Hand> jrib: will try another USB mouse and then I will get a PS2 mouse
[01:09] <jrib> nox-Hand: maybe, are you planning on installing or just using the live cd?
[01:10] <d2812> Can somebody who is running feisty, go into Software Sources and under Authentication tell me what keys they have listed? I have 437D05B5, and FBB75451.
[01:10] <ikonia> d2812: the keys are in the root of the repo's just look there
[01:10] <Ratkid132> ikonia: I'm telling you it's not there I'm looking in /etc/ and theres plenty of folders but fstab isn't there, I even turned on show hidden folders
[01:11] <nox-Hand> jrib: installing, so can probably fix later
[01:11] <ikonia> Ratkid132: you've just done ls -la /etc/fstab - and its there
[01:11] <ikonia> Ratkid132: how are you looking
[01:11] <jrib> nox-Hand: does other usb stuff work?
[01:11] <forngren> How can I use screen 1 as primary in xorg.conf?
[01:11] <Ratkid132> how? in GNOMEs file browser
[01:11] <Ratkid132> Nautilus
[01:11] <ikonia> Ratkid132: well, its there, you've just proved it
[01:12] <afief> Ratkid132, it's a file
[01:12] <nox-Hand> jrib: There is no other ;)
[01:12] <nox-Hand> jrib: will just install with a PS/2 for now :-D
[01:12] <afief> Ratkid132, not a folder
[01:12] <nox-Hand> THen fix later
[01:12] <Ratkid132> *facepalm*
[01:12] <jrib> nox-Hand: k
[01:12] <Ratkid132> yeah got it lol
[01:12] <jrib> nox-Hand: might be a good idea to check bugs.ubuntu.com and file a bug with hardware info if there isn't one already
[01:14] <Misled> I get this message from time to time and have installed a program but dependancies couldnt be download... Here is the problem : "Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-updates/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  MD5Sum mismatch"
[01:14] <Misled> How do I fix that?
[01:14] <dspstv> if the mem test reports errors is there anything one can do?
[01:14] <wwwerty> how do i remove the mounted drives on the desktop?
[01:14] <ikonia> dspstv: buy new ram
[01:14] <d2812> ikonia: do you have alink, i'm being a bit blind and cant see them.
[01:14] <ikonia> wwwerty: tell them to mount anwhere else
[01:14] <dspstv> ikonia, just that ha?
[01:15] <ikonia> d2812:  no
[01:15] <juan> tengo que comprar un wireles para conectar wifi de un ruter cual me recomendaiel amper que tengo de telefonica no me funciona
[01:15] <juan>  uso un cable, pero son 25 metros la tirada :P

[01:15] <dspstv> k
[01:15] <ikonia> !es >juan
[01:15] <wwwerty> its mounted in media , but still i find it on the destop
[01:15] <Frogzoo_away> Misled: "sudo apt-get clean" may help
[01:15] <jrib> dspstv: make sure voltage and bios settings are correct (contact manufacturer) otherwise you need new ram as ikonia said
[01:15] <ikonia> wwwerty: thats gnome doing that
[01:15] <wwwerty> Do i have to look else where other than the fstab file?
[01:15] <dspstv> ikonia, the chip says lifetime warranty
[01:15] <ikonia> dspstv: so rma it
[01:15] <wwwerty> ikonia: can i remove those
[01:15] <dspstv> sure
[01:15] <dspstv> i have no receipt
[01:15] <Misled> Frog_zoo:  Ok doing that now
[01:16] <dspstv> :(
[01:16] <juan> ikonia que modelo me recomiendas
[01:16] <ikonia> wwwerty: as I recall there is a gnome setting in gconf that says to not display on desktop
[01:16] <ikonia> !es > juan
[01:16] <ikonia> dspstv: thats not my issue
[01:16] <jrib> !icons > wwwerty (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:16] <dspstv> ikonia, ok ok chill
[01:16] <dspstv> :)
[01:16] <ikonia> I am
[01:18] <vlab> Hello
[01:18] <d2812> synaptic is saying that packages i'm about to install can't be authenticated. google seems to confirm that i have the right key, and its from the universe repo. anyone got any ideas?
[01:18] <Misled> Frog_zoo: What exaclty does the apt-get clean do?
[01:19] <vlab> Quick question, is it possible to install ubuntu from an local iso image? (having a boot floopy, boot cd)
[01:19] <Misled> I did it but sill get this: W: GPG error: http://archive.ubuntu.com edgy-backports Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[01:19] <Misled> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[01:19] <Misled> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[01:20] <Frogzoo_away> Misled: so do what it says 'sudo apt-get update'
[01:20] <wwwerty> when i open utorrent with wine and minimise and then maximize it, the window becomes transparent
[01:21] <graveson> what can i use to tag video files ?
[01:21] <YamiTenshi> I have a problem: Linux won't boot normally. When I try to boot it, it just gives me a black screen saying "Starting up...", and then does nothing. Recovery mode works fine, but that won't do me any good since I have no clue what the problem is or how I can find out. (Currently running Ubuntu using the live cd, btw. My Linux distibution is Ubuntu
[01:21] <Misled> Frogzoo_away: I did.. and I still get that message... so I'm at a loss.  Is the prob on my end or the ubuntu ftp file end of things?
[01:21] <Frogzoo_away> Misled: might be a bad package
[01:22] <YamiTenshi> could anybody help me determine the problem? Or does any of you have any idea what it might be?
[01:22] <vlab> Yami: Im no expert, could it be that your computer cant handle the "vesa" grapichs mode when booting? (you have installed it right..)
[01:22] <YamiTenshi> it booted just fine yesterday
[01:22] <Hadron> vlab: vesa needs no such install. It is a default.
[01:23] <YamiTenshi> X wouldn't boot, but that was fixed by disabling the NVidia glx driver
[01:23] <jrib> YamiTenshi: get rid of "quiet" and "splash" from /boot/grub/menu.lst and try booting again, that might give you more information about where it fails
[01:23] <vlab> hadron, as for handling the framebuffer?
[01:23] <lbawinowns> Hello, I got a couple of files that are 0 B wand they are completely unremoveable, and i must remove them, it's on a NTFS
[01:23] <YamiTenshi> did that already =\
[01:23] <Misled> Frog_zoo" Ok.. I'll just wait it out..   LOL
[01:23] <Misled> Now I can sleep better :)
[01:24] <Hadron> vlab: you are complicating things needlessly. What does accessing the framebuffer have to do with it?
[01:24] <msingh> will ubuntu use nvidia (corp) drivers or free ones?
[01:24] <Hadron> vlab: vesa is a default fallback.
[01:24] <YamiTenshi> the nvidia drivers only give trouble for me, I didn't bother to install them again :P
[01:24] <jrib> msingh: free ones unless you enable the nvidia ones
[01:25] <vlab> Hadron: ok.. :D
[01:25] <Hadron> msingh: both. 7.04 gives you the choice to usee the restricted drivers (NVidia latest ones)
[01:25] <msingh> jrib, when you say enable, what do you mean?
[01:25] <msingh> ok so out of the box i will have the choice?
[01:25] <jrib> msingh: you are running feisty?
[01:25] <wam> msingh: and unless nvidia creates free drivers
[01:25] <Hadron> msingh: with Feisty 7.04 yes
[01:25] <Hadron> msingh: I strongly recommened the NVidia ones. They work great.
[01:25] <msingh> jrib, nah im using debian but considering whether to change to another distro .. ive got terrible video performance so i'd like to use company drivers
[01:26] <jrib> msingh: system -> administration -> restricted driver manager  will let you enable them after you install.  But I'm sure you can install nvidia drivers on debian as well...
[01:26] <YamiTenshi> any other ideas on what my problem might be? or how I can find out?
[01:26] <Hadron> jrib: I doubt if its easy. It hwas hard enough in Last Ubuntu releases - all sorts of kernel version issues.
[01:26] <wam> msingh: btw, they just released new drivers, my laptop stopped freezing (nvidia 7600)
[01:26] <msingh> jrib, nah i couldnt. i installed a bunch of packages but it was all fucked up due to one incompatibility after another
[01:26] <JohnnyBe1> hey guys does anybody knows a linux application that can modify pdfs (i.e. underlying text while reading, an acro pro equivalent)?
[01:27] <jrib> YamiTenshi: so what was the last thing it said before it crashed?
[01:27] <Hadron> YamiTenshi: so your driver is set to vesa now?
[01:27] <JohnnyBe1> sorry! i did not mean to interrupt...
[01:27] <jrib> msingh: I see, well it's managed by the gui in ubuntu now, you just check a box
[01:27] <YamiTenshi> the last thing it said was "Starting up...", and how can I find out wether or not the driver is set to vesa?
[01:28] <msingh> jrib, ok sweet. well when i get my cds i will give ubuntu a shot. cheers.
[01:28] <YamiTenshi> (driver in xorg.conf is set to nv, is that it?)
[01:28] <Hadron> YamiTenshi: boot to recovers mode ad loko at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:28] <Hadron> "and look"
[01:28] <|thunder> whats that good vector app for linux ?
[01:28] <jrib> |thunder: inkscape
[01:28] <YamiTenshi> xorg.conf says "nv" at driver
[01:28] <|thunder> thaks
[01:28] <Hadron> change that to vesa
[01:28] <kblog> can anyone tell me whats the difference of a "local group" and "domain group" for openSSH is?
[01:29] <YamiTenshi> hadron: ok :)
[01:29] <msingh> so ubuntu isnt stupid about licences, is it? will i be able to install /vlc/ /win32 drivers/ /opera/ etc?
[01:29] <YamiTenshi> thanks for the help, I'll try, but now I have to go :)
[01:30] <jrib> msingh: w32codecs and opera aren't packaged.  vlc is in "multiverse" (where unfree stuff goes).  medibuntu repos have w32codecs.  opera you just install a deb I think
[01:30] <jrib> !multiverse > msingh (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:30] <jrib> !medibuntu > msingh (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:30] <jrib> !opera > msingh (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:30] <msingh> ah ok, that's bad
[01:30] <Hadron> !multiverse > Hadron
[01:30] <Sjimmie> !w32codecs
[01:30] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[01:30] <lbawinowns> Hello, I can't write to a file, I dunno why, it's on a ntfs
[01:30] <jrib> lbawinowns: are you using ntfs-3g?
[01:31] <Hadron> lbawinowns: because its a read only FS by default.
[01:31] <lbawinowns> jrib, yes, and the file is 0 bytes
[01:31] <ckintner> ckintn3r
[01:31] <Sjimmie> lbawinowns: is it mounted using CIFS?
[01:31] <lbawinowns> hadron , I can write to everything else files
[01:31] <Hadron> aha
[01:31] <lbawinowns> sjimmie , what is CIFS?
[01:31] <Hadron> so you can create and edit other files on this NTFS or what?
[01:31] <Sjimmie> mount.cifs - mount using the Common Internet File System (CIFS)
[01:31] <travis> ~
[01:32] <lbawinowns> hadron , Yep, I can
[01:32] <Hadron> can you remove the file?

[01:33] <Hadron> it sounds like it might be in use.
[01:33] <lbawinowns> hadron, nope, i cant copy it
[01:34] <lbawinowns> Im doing it with the GUI, and when I drag and drop nothing happens, no message comes even.
[01:35] <Ratkid132> in text files with a command does a hash # at the start mean ignore this line?
[01:35] <lbawinowns> should I try  to remove the folder?
[01:37] <Hadron> lbawinowns: try the ubuntu forums.

[02:07] <iShock> LjL: Thats the problem...I dunno where to go to configure it...

[02:11] <jrib> dormant: why would you compile binutils?
[02:11] <iShock> ROAR...
[02:11] <iShock> Ok, i found the config file, but it won't let me paste it
[02:11] <LjL> iShock: it won't let you paste?
[02:11] <dormant> well. i downloaded binutils 2.17 from GNU.
[02:11] <Dodo> by default, gcc is not installed on 7.04
[02:11] <jrib> dormant: are you familiar with APT?
[02:12] <iShock> No

[02:12] <dormant> jrib: no. but i have it installed.
[02:12] <LjL> iShock: i'm not sure what you mean with that though
[02:12] <Riot777> I got lil problem why first login attempt always fail for me ? it has something to do with numlock ? anybody got similar problem ? when I first time type my login on GDM first letter I typed is always missing like the first keyboard event would be not pass or something, how can I fix this?
[02:12] <iShock> LjL: I right clicked the example conf file, went to /usr/lib/eggdrop and tried to paste. I couldn't select Paste.
[02:13] <jrib> dormant: when you install things on ubuntu, you want to use a frontend to APT like apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, or add/remove.  Just do "sudo aptitude install binutils" and you'll get binutils.  Even better, you probably just want to do "sudo aptitude install build-essential"
[02:13] <jintxo> has anyone seen this problem before? I can write CD-RW disks fine and  regular CD-R's fail with  Errno: 0 (Success), write_g1 scsi sendcmd:no error (yes DMA is enabled) :-(
[02:13] <jrib> !apt > dormant (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:13] <dormant> ubotu: thanks. but then I still need gcc in that case. I need to compile various SDK's and libs
[02:13] <phake> hello, i got one problem mit my radeon x1950, this is my xorg.conf: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/10905/ but my it runs only as MESA. i the Xorg.0.log i saw this: (WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:4:0:1) found  does any body have some ideas?
[02:13] <jrib> dormant: you don't need to compile things in general, you just use APT and it takes care of things.  build-essential gives you binutils as well as gcc
[02:14] <LjL> iShock: err ok, you meant copying the file. when i think "paste", i usually think of copying and pasting selections of text.
[02:14] <LjL> iShock: it won't let you copy it there, of course, because /usr is owned by root, and you can't (and shouldn't) write to it as a user.
[02:15] <iShock> How am I supposed to do it then?
[02:15] <LjL> iShock: since your eggdrop bot will be your user's, anyway, you want to have a user-specific configuration file, which means you want it to be put in your /home directory.
[02:15] <Dodo> HOW to use scilab's graph function?
[02:15] <dormant> jrib: thanks hehe. ok I'll try. I'll throw back in, if I don't manage
[02:15] <iShock> LjL: So it doesn't really matter where the conf file is, it'll work anywhere?
[02:15] <phake> hello, i got one problem with my radeon x1950, this is my xorg.conf: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/10905/ but my it runs only as MESA. in the Xorg.0.log i saw this: (WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:4:0:1) found  does any body have some ideas?
[02:15] <LjL> iShock: well, you have to start the bot with appropriate parameters.
[02:16] <jrib> dormant: sure, just remeber 'apt-cache search lib name_of_lib' and then review the results, and install the one you want.  You private message from ubotu should have more details
[02:17] <JaySomnium> Hadron : Thank you !
[02:17] <LjL> iShock: "man <commandname>" tells you all about command parameters. i also seriously suggest you learn what root is and why most directories are only writable by it. that means Unix permissions, and the Unix security model in general. you won't want to run something as potentially compromising as an IRC bot without knowing what you should not do in order for people not to break into your machine.
[02:18] <phake> hello?? kann anybody help me?
[02:18] <phake> i got one problem with my radeon x1950, this is my xorg.conf: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/10905/ but my it runs only as MESA. in the Xorg.0.log i saw this: (WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:4:0:1) found  does any body have some ideas?
[02:18] <iShock> LjL: I know what root is, I'd kinda figured out it was because I couldn't right to it as a user, and I still can't figure out the trigger....So I'll use the readme on this one :O
[02:19] <S0me1> hi all
[02:19] <spi> hi there, does anyone know some tool to monitoring cpu temperature?
[02:20] <iShock> LjL: You know much about configuring Eggdrop?
[02:20] <dappis> are you using gnome?
[02:20] <stefg> phake: please stop repaeting and read http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Troubleshooting instead.
[02:20] <jrib> spi: lm-sensors
[02:20] <LjL> iShock: i know that everything one needs to configure is carefully explained in the sample config file
[02:20] <ppd> it.org
[02:20] <iShock> LjL: I'm just wondering: Do I get a bind IP and stuff if I got an IP 64.255.118.*
[02:21] <spi> jrib: tx you very much
[02:21] <iShock> #set my-hostname "virtual.host.com"
[02:21] <iShock> #set my-ip "<IP_ADDRESS>" I set those...But how do I know my hostname?
[02:22] <iShock> Wait, nevermind...
[02:22] <iShock> IP OR Hostmask ;O
[02:22] <dormant> jrib: ok. up to now, everything worked. But yet another question: I need libusb, so I downloaded libusb-0.1.12.tar.gz. It says that I have to compile the package. with gcc? Or can I install the lib with aptitude too?
[02:22] <LjL> iShock: "If you're using virtual hosting (your machine has more than 1 IP)" suggests that you may want to leave that all alone, if you don't.
[02:22] <S0me1> Who is tried install ubuntu on iBOOK Mak ? is everthing working fine?
[02:23] <jrib> dormant: you don't need to compile libusb, just search for it with aptitude or apt-cache.  I'm guessing you want to do development with libusb, so you'll want the libusb-dev package.  I sed this command to find it: apt-cache search -n lib usb dev
[02:23] <stefg> S0me1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[02:25] <dormant> jrib: K. thanks alot, Its quite a bunch easier as I thought. I'm glad that people are eager to help! thanks
[02:26] <martalli> Hello - I installed ubuntu on my computer (prev kubuntu), but there is no desktop search that I can find.  Maybe this is because I didn't change my /home partition
[02:26] <martalli> What is the CLI command for ubuntu's default desktop search?
[02:26] <kanzie> Im having problems running WoW using wine, is anyone familiar with this?
[02:26] <stefg> kanzie: rather ask in #winehq
[02:26] <kanzie> stefg: ok
[02:27] <yobrien> martalli: beagle-query
[02:27] <martalli> kanzie: If you google - you will find that there is an extensive forum post abut WoW, wine, and ubuntu in one of the ubuntu forums
[02:27] <martalli> yobrien: Thanks
[02:28] <martalli> yobrien: Hmm, for some reason it wasn't installed.  Is it not installed by default?
[02:28] <yobrien> martalli: what do you mean by "desktop search"? ....
[02:29] <martalli> yobrien: I meant beagle
[02:29] <kbrooks> what is an ideal partition layout if you want /home on another partition?
[02:29] <ryan2_> Im trying to upgrade to ubuntu studio with the repo but I dont get all the packages
[02:29] <yobrien> martalli: i dont think is installed by default....
[02:29] <yobrien> it is
[02:29] <kbrooks> ryan2_: #ubuntustudio
[02:30] <ryan2_> k
[02:30] <martalli> yobrien: It isn't installed on my relatively fresh install of ubuntu.  I looked in synaptic and saw bealge and also something called doodle for desktop search
[02:30] <variant> aliask: no idea
[02:30] <spiderfire> hi i how can i get libgtkglextmm into ubuntu
[02:30] <yobrien> martalli: i dont know if its default or not ... but beagle is fairly integrated into the desktop
[02:30] <variant> spiderfire: search for it and install the correctly named package
[02:31] <spiderfire> variant: its not in the repo though right?
[02:31] <spi> jrib I installed lm-sensors,but I can't find executable files to it, where I have to see?
[02:31] <variant> spiderfire: might be named something else
[02:31] <nuu> kbrooks: generally you can go with /, /home, swap. optionally, /usr
[02:31] <variant> spiderfire: apt-cache search gtkgle
[02:31] <martalli> yobrien: It was installed with every other feisty install I had made.  Hmm, well its installed now =)
[02:31] <spiderfire> variant tired
[02:31] <spiderfire> tried
[02:31] <kbrooks> nuu: swap 256 mb, what about the rest?
[02:32] <yobrien> martalli: if you use the deskbar applet you can get a spotlight (for mac os x) like search thing
[02:32] <nuu> kbrooks: depends really on how much space you have on your disk :)
[02:32] <jrib> spi: you get "sensors-detect" and "sensors".  You run sensors-detect first
[02:32] <kbrooks> nuu: 20 gb
[02:33] <spiderfire> variant: i dont think its in the feisty repo
[02:33] <spi> jrib: Ok tx you
[02:33] <variant> kbrooks: /usr doesn't need to be on a seperate partition. it has benefits for those that would have special situations or wanted it on a seperate drive. for a standard desktop i would have / 6GB /swap 512mb /home all the rest
[02:33] <nuu> i'd say give /home most space. but don't forget packages get installed under /usr (/usr/share), so bear in mind that'll be space taken from /, or from /usr if you decide to give it a separate partition.
[02:33] <jrib> spi: there are some gui frontends too, but i don't about them.  xsensors and ksensors
[02:34] <joe4444> my ipod database has been "corrupted" in that it now shows only 1 album even though all the files are actually still there, and somehow Rhythmbox has the full database... how can i wipe the ipod clean in order to restore all my music manually?
[02:34] <iShock> Ok, I'm dual-booting with Feisty Fawn and Vista: How do I make it so I can keep Ubuntu up, use Vista, then just switch back and forth?
[02:34] <spi> jrib ok I'm looking about them, tx
[02:34] <RivaeAerya> Can anybody help me?  The codecs are alright, and if i download em i can play em, but i can't see them from thebrowser plugin. It's totem-xine-firefox-plugin by the way. Can anybody please help me?
[02:34] <LjL> jrib: for KDE, just ksysguard alone can read the sensors (ksensors is a bit eccentric). perhaps some standard tools in gnome can do the same? gnome-system-monitor or whatever?
[02:35] <kbrooks> variant: 6 gb fits me anyway, because i don't think i will download too much  as an average user / average developer
[02:35] <jrib> LjL: no idea, sensors doesn't work on my mobo
[02:36] <RivaeAerya> Anybody?
[02:36] <Cyber_Stalker> hey
[02:36] <variant> kbrooks: how much ram yu got?
[02:36] <ProN00b> is there any easy way to turn ipv6 off ?
[02:37] <jrib> !ipv6 > ProN00b (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:37] <variant> spiderfire: yes, seems a few people have this issue. i don't have an answer for you though unfortunatly
[02:37] <kbrooks> variant: 256
[02:37] <dappis> RivaeAerya: movies and videos on linux are still hard to conf, but you could try mplayer and mozilla-mplayer
[02:37] <Cyber_Stalker> quick question, im typing "make" to try and compile source as directed by a read me, but when i type make i get the error "make - command not found"
[02:37] <Cyber_Stalker> any reason for this?
[02:37] <jrib> Cyber_Stalker: what are you compiling?
[02:37] <dappis> just uninstall previous plugins to avoid conflicts
[02:37] <RivaeAerya> dappis: that player isn't supposed to work? oO
[02:37] <Cyber_Stalker> an app called airfart
[02:37] <mwe> Cyber_Stalker: install build-essential
[02:37] <variant> kbrooks: well you might want 3/4/500 mb swap, if your compiling software then it might actualy get used
[02:37] <dappis> mplayer works for me :)
[02:37] <Cyber_Stalker> hah build essention
[02:38] <jrib> !compiling > Cyber_Stalker (see the private message from ubotu)

[02:38] <iShock> Ok, I'm dual-booting with Feisty Fawn and Vista: How do I make it so I can keep Ubuntu up, use Vista, then just switch back and forth?
[02:38] <variant> iShock: you don't
[02:38] <LjL> jrib: well it's not a big issue, when you see fire you know it's overheating, couldn't get a more effective interface
[02:38] <Cyber_Stalker> thanks alot mwe
[02:38] <Cyber_Stalker> :D
[02:39] <variant> iShock: unless you use a virtual machine
[02:39] <jrib> LjL: exactly
[02:39] <iShock> Virtual Machine?
[02:39] <Cyber_Stalker> and thanks to everyone else aswell :D
[02:40] <kbrooks> iShock: a computer in your computer
[02:40] <kbrooks> iShock: essentially
[02:40] <dappis> I think there are way too much different videoplayers in linux: vlc, mplayer, totem(xine/gstreamer), ogle, gxine and what not
[02:40] <variant> iShock: yes, a program that pretends to be a computer that runs on top of the installed operating system. it allows you to run other operating systems in a window.. heard of vmware?
[02:40] <jrib> dappis: choice is good
[02:40] <dappis> but it's bad when there's too many options
[02:40] <variant> dappis: why? use what you prefer who cares if there are others
[02:40] <tom_> hey guys what so i do with a .jar file
[02:40] <variant> dappis: rubbish
[02:40] <kbrooks> dappis: you can apply that to too much linux distributions.
[02:40] <dappis> I'd like 1-3 GOOD programs which would just work
[02:40] <tom_> run it from the cli?
[02:40] <Frogzoo> dappis: development effort maps somewhat losely to user base, so it's not such an issue
[02:40] <mwe> dappis: and in windows there are a gazillion players
[02:40] <variant> tom_: run it with java
[02:41] <variant> tom_: "java filename.jar"
[02:41] <xipietotec> how do you change the font color of gnome-panel?
[02:41] <dappis> mwe: that's also true
[02:41] <Gerro> Anyone know how to play a .rmvb file in totem?
[02:41] <kbrooks> variant: you mean java -jar filename.jar
[02:41] <variant> dappis: maybe it should be illegal to develp more software... as long as 2 - 3 options exist then further development should be illegal...
[02:42] <variant> kbrooks: yes, indeed
[02:42] <Frogzoo> xipietotec: right click - properties
[02:42] <kbrooks> variant: no, it should not be illegal.
[02:42] <Frogzoo> variant: good call - I'm for it
[02:42] <Gerro> xipietotect: check in your home directory using ls -a for any hidden gnome directories then look for config file
[02:42] <xipietotec> Frogzoo, I did, there's no option to change *font* color.
[02:42] <ProN00b> wait, there are nics that do no support ipv6 ??
[02:42] <variant> kbrooks: of course not.. see !sarchasm
[02:42] <dappis> variant: don't heat up :)
[02:43] <Frogzoo> xipietotec: how right you are - hmmm, maybe there's an x resource for it
[02:43] <Gerro> ProN00b: ipv6 isn't even in support now its still and has always been experimental and just recently came out, it is a sick joke that firefox includes dns support for it on by default
[02:44] <Gerro> ProN00b: oh and they found out how its possible to do massive scale ddos attack with ipv6 on scales never even heard of before
[02:44] <variant> Gerro: many networks now support ipv6 and that will only increase until the eventual switchover
[02:44] <Gerro> variant: I fear the time that comes...
[02:44] <lonran> hi everybody
[02:44] <lonran> a good and light program to create an image from a dvd?
[02:44] <leninIdebian> lonran: k9copy
[02:44] <variant> Gerro: and that is something that will be a total non-issue in the 2 or 3 years when it is more wide spread. and at the momment it is only a matter of not enabling a small feature to make that insecurity void
[02:45] <stefg> lonran: dd :-)
[02:45] <variant> Gerro: anyway, this is !offtopic
[02:45] <leninIdebian> variant: i heared this 2 or 3 years before
[02:45] <Gerro> variant: no reason ipv4 cant have a +2 added to it, all this extra jizz on the protocol is a waste, its perfectly on topic he was asking about linux support of ipv6
[02:46] <variant> lol
[02:46] <iShock> /server irc.swiftirc.net
[02:46] <ProN00b> Gerro, thats bullshit, ipv6 hasn't been deployed enough to allow anything on "massive scale", implementations are already fixing that flaw, which even if it had anything to it would need quite some technical expertise to pull
[02:46] <iShock> Err....
[02:46] <Gerro> ProN00b: yes but once it is deployed it will, on private networks it has been tested and has huge flaws
[02:47] <Gerro> ProN00b: soon as I see maybe least one non ipv6 fanatic then I might think about it but so far just bunch of DL freaks hoping for some more speed
[02:47] <variant> !offtopic ProN00b, Gerro, we should discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic as it is no longer an ubuntu support issue
[02:47] <phake> http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Troubleshooting didn't helped me :((
[02:47] <spi> jrib: hmm I tried to start sensors-detect and sensors but seem that I need to mount additional modules....
[02:47] <variant> !offtopic | ProN00b, Gerro, we should discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic as it is no longer an ubuntu support issue
[02:47] <ubotu> ProN00b, Gerro, we should discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic as it is no longer an ubuntu support issue: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:48] <jrib> spi: yeah, sensors-detect should tell you what you need and print it out
[02:48] <spi> jrib: I have to mount these modules with modprobe?
[02:48] <spi> jrib
[02:48] <jrib> spi: yeah, this time.  In the future you just add it to the file it tells you to
[02:50] <phake> hello, can somebody help me? my radeon x1950 will only run in MESA-Mode. troubleshooting was already done. this is my xorg.conf: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/10905/
[02:50] <spi> jrib Ok, It shows me which modules has to be installed but named with long description.... and no with its real module name
[02:51] <spi> jrib I can look them on internet? what about this?
[02:51] <leninIdebian> phake: best help is to buy a nvidia device
[02:51] <cnez0red> Is there a ppc version of feisty?
[02:51] <phake> leninIdebian: but ati must also run under ubuntu ...
[02:51] <ciem> hello
[02:51] <SpectralDesign> if I use gtkpod, can I point it at the iTunes folder from my WinXP install, or would it cause corruption or other problems? (I'm using fuse to mount said partition RW)
[02:51] <dappis> cnez0red: at least you cannot download one
[02:52] <ciem> can I have a question, eh?
[02:52] <jrib> spi: the last thing the sensors-detect script should output is some stuff to add to /etc/modules.  That should contain the name of the modules
[02:52] <theDtTvB2> Hello, I see that my WLAN device doesn't show in the network-admin anymore. Can anyone help me?
[02:52] <cnez0red> dappis you mean there is one, but I can't have it?
[02:52] <jrib> !ask | ciem
[02:52] <ubotu> ciem: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:52] <stefg> !ppc | cnez0red
[02:52] <ubotu> cnez0red: PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[02:52] <ciem> first question and I've been doomed already
[02:52] <ciem> :-P
[02:52] <dappis> cnez0red: you cannot download a PPC iso-image and burn it
[02:52] <rasky> oi
[02:52] <jrib> ciem: :)
[02:52] <phake> leninIdebian: it seems that nobody knows how to set up ati devices?
[02:52] <dappis> you could download earlier version of ubuntu and try to upgrade manually
[02:53] <jrib> spi: maybe this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[02:53] <cornell> Can anybody help with a wifi problem?  I've a fresh install of feisty, on a thinkpad with a belkin F5D070 usb wifi (revision 1, Broadcom, I think).  When it first started up, it recognized the belkin and reported the SSID, so I've received  something.  I mucked about a bit, and eventually the gnome network (with exlamation point) icon turned into a bars icon.  Still show 0 signal (it's 5 feet from the ap).   I've changed the access po
[02:53] <spi> jrib ok
[02:53] <ciem> nvm, I wanted to know which wifi router will be the best for ubuntu? I mean, which router wouldn't make any problems,  you know..
[02:53] <leninIdebian> phake: me not, i got an ati device in my lap, but switched to radeon driver because fglrx took to much time
[02:54] <dappis> it's better to stick with a ppc-version of dapper because it's supported longer than edgy
[02:54] <cnez0red> thanks.
[02:54] <phake> leninIdebian: so you think to install radeon driver is much faster and easier?
[02:54] <Xpcontact> Hello
[02:54] <stefg> phake: i gave you a link on a troubleshooting howto. But it's a known fact that ATI neither opensources their driver, nor are able to provide a really working one
[02:55] <Xpcontact> got problem while installing ruby on rail in ubunutu
[02:55] <leninIdebian> phake: its easier, but you can't do the fancy beryl 3d stuff
[02:55] <mwe> leninIdebian: doesn't it suck not having any 3d accelleration, though?
[02:55] <leninIdebian> mwe: why? I dont play games!
[02:55] <phake> stefg: yes thanks for that link but it didnt help me ... i have donw this troubleshooting but there are still the same problems
[02:56] <rambo3> better then having atis 3d that slows down computer
[02:56] <mwe> leninIdebian: well if you don't need it I see the point ;)
[02:56] <Xpcontact> anyone could help me about to install ruby on rail ?
[02:57] <leninIdebian> phake: if fglrx is not going imediatly you are going to spend really lots of time for troubleshooting
[02:57] <jrib> Xpcontact: "rails" is packaged in universe
[02:57] <Xpcontact> jrib i am new user of linux
[02:57] <phake> it was working ... but after reboot it only runs with MESA
[02:57] <Xpcontact> so i do not understand what  that means +
[02:57] <phake> i dont know why
[02:58] <LjL> !software > Xpcontact    (Xpcontact, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:58] <jrib> Xpcontact: do you know about APT?
[02:58] <Xpcontact> apt-get ?
[02:58] <ciem> jrib: nvm, I wanted to know which wifi router will be the best for ubuntu? I mean, which router wouldn't make any problems,  you know..
[02:58] <LjL> Xpcontact: APT is the Ubuntu packaging system, apt-get is just a frontend for it - but yes
[02:59] <jrib> ciem: I see.  I don't know though
[02:59] <Xpcontact> so what I do ?
[02:59] <leninIdebian> ciem: http://toh.openwrt.org/
[02:59] <jrib> Xpcontact: have you enabled the universe repository?
[02:59] <LjL> Xpcontact: enable Universe, and then install that "rails" package using Synaptic, apt-get or your preferred front-end
[02:59] <ciem> oh, thanks jrib
[02:59] <Xpcontact> because I always get error ;
[02:59] <Xpcontact> ~$ sudo ruby setup.r
[02:59] <Xpcontact> sudo: ruby: command not found
[03:00] <LjL> Xpcontact: that would be unsurprising if you don't have ruby installed. also, why in the world are you running a ruby script as root...?
[03:00] <LjL> ciem: try asking the bot about "wifi" and/or "hardware", should have lists of stuff that work
[03:00] <Xpcontact> :D
[03:01] <Frogzoo> it seems the default environment disables core dumps (ulimit -c = 0) where is this set ?
[03:01] <Xpcontact> LjL, this is my second time in life touching ubuntu :D
[03:01] <Frogzoo> !docs | Xpcontact read all about it
[03:01] <ubotu> Xpcontact read all about it: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com
[03:01] <Xpcontact> so how can I fix that or what i have to do ?
[03:01] <LjL> Xpcontact: well, if you don't want to have to install it a third, a fourth and a fifth time, please keep very well in mind that you should *never* do *anything* as root unless you know perfectly what you're doing - except for calling the package manger. let the package manager handle things.
[03:02] <Xpcontact> Ubotu, I wish my eyes could stand and read all those documents :D
[03:02] <LjL> Xpcontact, we told you. enable Universe first. the link from the bot explains how
[03:02] <Xpcontact> ok wait I will read that
[03:02] <Tushar> what application available to convert my vinyl tape to CD
[03:02] <LjL> Xpcontact, System / Administration / Software Source if i'm not very mistaken (i don't use GNOME). it isn't that hard.
[03:02] <Pelo> Xpcontact, start whith this one then for installing stuff  http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[03:03] <jrib> Frogzoo: I think /etc/security/limits.conf
[03:03] <Pelo> LjL, system > admin > synaptic pakcage manager actualy
[03:03] <zLinux> wow
[03:03] <Tushar> Pelo: what application available to convert my vinyl tape to CD
[03:03] <orbin> vinyl ... tape?
[03:03] <zLinux> hi
[03:04] <stefg> Tushar: that's quite a complex task, look at ubuntustudio for remastering audio
[03:04] <zLinux> how to update packages in ubuntu?
[03:04] <SpectralDesign> have you considered Audacity, Tushar?
[03:04] <Frogzoo> jrib: cheering, thanks mate
[03:04] <zLinux> what's the Most Official way to update packages in ubuntu?
[03:04] <LjL> Tushar: "vinyl tape"? :)
[03:04] <mwe> what the heck is vinyl tape? ;)
[03:04] <xipietotec> okay, I found a fix for the panel....how do I change the color of the background of the little popup "hover" panels and notification daemon popups?
[03:04] <Pelo> Tushar, I would guess you coiuld do it by pluggin the tape deck in to the MIC port of your sound card and use the sound recorder in the default app,  and thenn use sound converter to comvert to a decent format
[03:04] <LjL> Pelo: mic?!
[03:04] <Pelo> Tushar, but I make no promisses , I've nemver done this
[03:04] <ZeroA4> zLinux, sudo apt-get upgrade or via system - update manager
[03:04] <Pelo> microphone
[03:04] <LjL> you connect that stuff to line-in
[03:04] <LjL> not to mic
[03:05] <Tushar> Pelo: i have creative sound card
[03:05] <Pelo> LjL,  I said it was a guess
[03:05] <boubbin> how to mount a .nrg ?
[03:05] <Tushar> Pelo: can i record them to my HDD
[03:05] <LjL> Tushar, is this tapes, or is this vinyls?
[03:05] <zLinux> ZeroA4, which one is best?
[03:05] <SpectralDesign> Tushar, if you have a semi-pro mixing board, you can use a card like the Echo Mia with Ubuntu to do high quality recording
[03:05] <Xpcontact> LjL if ruby is installed how can I call it ? or how to excute it ?
[03:05] <Pelo> Tushar,  you'll be recording to a file
[03:05] <LjL> Pelo: careful, it could ruin your soundcard to use mic like that (unlikely, admittedly)
[03:05] <zLinux> ZeroA4, and more guaranteed to work well?
[03:06] <LjL> Xpcontact: "ruby" will not give you a "command not found" error. try just typing "ruby".
[03:06] <Xpcontact> ok
[03:06] <Tushar> Pelo: i have vinyl cassette
[03:06] <Xpcontact> LjL in the terminal or  where ?
[03:06] <LjL> Tushar, i haven't the slightest idea what a vinyl cassette would be. discs are made of vinyl, cassettes are magnetic, to the very best of my knowledge
[03:07] <Tushar> Pelo: i wanna save all songs from there to my HDD
[03:07] <LjL> Xpcontact: in the terminal
[03:07] <Pelo> Tushar,   vinyl or cassette, they are different tyings,    vynils are flat platic disks
[03:07] <Xpcontact> LjL look : $ ruby
[03:07] <Xpcontact> bash: ruby: command not found
[03:07] <LjL> and the two should be treated quite differently when recording
[03:07] <LjL> Xpcontact: then you still don't have it installed (are you running Feisty, by the way? i wouldn't think so)
[03:07] <Xpcontact> Feisty :D I don't know
[03:07] <LjL> Xpcontact: have you enabled Universe yet?
[03:08] <Gerro> anyone know how to play rmvb files? I think it has something to do with real player codecs
[03:08] <LjL> Xpcontact: type  lsb_release -a  and paste the output
[03:08] <LjL> Xpcontact: actually, i meant pastebin
[03:08] <LjL> !pastebin > Xpcontact    (Xpcontact, see the private message from Ubotu)
[03:08] <Tushar> Pelo:yes yes  cassettes  (magnetic)
[03:08] <Pelo> Tushar,  plug your tape recorder in the line in port of your sound card,  star the sound recorderapp in ubuntu applications audio/video,  start the playback,  then edit the recording into single songs,
[03:08] <Xpcontact> LjL look: lsb_release -a
[03:08] <Xpcontact> LSB Version:    n/a
[03:08] <Xpcontact> Distributor ID: Ubuntu
[03:08] <Xpcontact> Description:    Ubuntu (The Breezy Badger Release)
[03:08] <Xpcontact> Release:        5.10
[03:08] <Xpcontact> Codename:       breezy
[03:09] <Tushar> Pelo: can i save them to mp3
[03:09] <Pelo> Tushar,  you can convert them to mp3 after you have recorded them
[03:09] <lathiat_> Xpcontact: sheesh tahts a bit old ;p
[03:09] <ZeroA4> zLinux, both are garanted... only the first is text mode and the second graphical
[03:09] <Tushar> Pelo: ok, firstly i have to save them to my HDD
[03:10] <AlbertoP> hi
[03:10] <Pelo> Tushar, yes
[03:10] <spi> jrib Ok well done, I'm watching my device temperatures!! thanks you!
[03:10] <LjL> Tushar: ok then just connect the cassette deck to your soundcard's line input, and either use a generic audio editor, like Audacity, to record, or use some more specialized software like gramofile, or use the two together
[03:10] <jrib> spi: great
[03:10] <LjL> !info audacity > thushar | this is a quite good audio recorder/editor
[03:10] <LjL> !info gramofile > thushar | this is for recording from vinyls, so make sure you UNselect vinyl-related options, but it allows you to automatically split tracks (which can certainly come handy)
[03:10] <Xpcontact> lathiat_ what I have to  do ?
[03:11] <Tushar> Pelo: okay thanx for your kind help  :)
[03:11] <ompaul> Xpcontact, breezy is no longer supported
[03:11] <Pelo> Tushar,  say thnks to ljl to
[03:11] <LjL> !info wavsplit > tushar | and this is a separate splitter for wav files, that can work with any sound recorder if you saved as .wav
[03:11] <dappis> Xpcontact: you could upgrade to dapper, I'm sure the web has plenty of upgrade instructions
[03:12] <Tushar> LjL: thanx :)
[03:12] <Xpcontact> ompaul , ok what I do  then to fix the situation ? I am ready to re install ubunutu if need :D
[03:12] <MindOfChaos> So
[03:12] <ouarza> je suis sous xchat
[03:12] <ompaul> Xpcontact, download fiesty or dapper and start there
[03:12] <LjL> Tushar: when when you have the .wavs, you can use any standard CD burner to make an audio CD, or rip to Ogg
[03:12] <zLinux> Update Manager VS. CLI APT-GET to update packages?
[03:12] <LjL> !fr | ouarza
[03:12] <ubotu> ouarza: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[03:12] <MindOfChaos> when are they going to add select boxes to screensaver selection in Ubuntu?
[03:12] <zLinux> which one is more reliable?
[03:12] <MindOfChaos> It would be simple to do
[03:12] <jrib> zLinux: same thing
[03:12] <MindOfChaos> But they havn't done it
[03:12] <Xpcontact> ompaul any link that I do not take something wrong ?
[03:12] <LjL> zLinux: update manager
[03:12] <MindOfChaos> so you are not stuck with one or random screensavers
[03:12] <cornell> Can anybody recommend a wifi divice for ubuntu feisty that works out of the box?  USB preferred, but PCMCIA ok?
[03:13] <Tushar> LjL: do you have any idea hows the sound quality
[03:13] <dappis> 1. make a backup of your /etc/apt/sources.list 2. change all breezy > dapper 3. sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[03:13] <ompaul> Xpcontact, www.ubuntu.com will allow you download either disk and from there you can progress, just given the additional hardware support I would look at feisty
