[14:08] <ikonia> justAsset: is it hardware raid or fakeraid
[14:08] <facilitador> someone knows a software for video editing Ubuntu
[14:09] <justAsset> hardware raid1
[14:09] <soundray> justAsset: just get the packages online
[14:09] <facilitador> hi bazhang :-D
[14:09] <TooreD> how can i get ubuntu desktop
[14:09] <ikonia> justAsset: what controller ?
[14:09] <TooreD> ?
[14:09] <ikonia> TooreD: the cd ?
[14:09] <zetheroo> soundray: it reads from a FAT16 card just fine
[14:09] <TooreD> i dont have the cd
[14:09] <soundray> zetheroo: any errors?
[14:09] <ikonia> TooreD: no, I mean do you want to get the ubuntu desktop cd ?
[14:09] <bennyf11> hey when setting up my apache server, when i navigate to a PHP file i am asked to download it. Can anyone Help??
[14:09] <ikonia> bennyf11: install php
[14:09] <adam7> bennyf11, you need to install php as well
[14:10] <zetheroo> soundray: no errors
[14:10] <justAsset> ikonia: intell
[14:10] <asmith42> bennyf11: PHP isn't running, it sounds like.
[14:10] <bennyf11> I have installed php5 by doing sudo apt-get install php5
[14:10] <justAsset> ikonia: i think
[14:10] <ikonia> justAsset: thats not hardware raid then
[14:10] <ikonia> justAsset: do you mean a raid controller on your motherboard ?
[14:10] <zetheroo> soundray: it mounts the FAT32 SD card but does not display the data
[14:10] <facilitador> someone knows a software for video editing for Ubuntu
[14:10] <Lynet> zetheroo: Nothing fishy in dmesg or any errors if trying to mount manually from a command prompt?
[14:10] <justAsset> ikonia: yes
[14:10] <soundray> zetheroo: run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog', then insert the card and put the output of tail on http://paste.ubuntu.com if it doesn't make sense to you
[14:10] <ikonia> justAsset: thats is not hardware raid
[14:10] <bennyf11> asmith42: how would i start php?
[14:10] <platinum> how can i open a document on the client machine threw n ssh connection??
[14:11] <DarkSpirit221> rver irc.ptnet.org
[14:11] <Charbucks> facilitador: pitivi or cinerella
[14:11] <DRebellion> platinum, what sort of document?
[14:11] <panerai_go>  /msg nickserv identify 1234
[14:11] <justAsset> ikonia: i've configured it from BIOS raid utility
[14:11] <soundray> Charbucks: cinelerra?
[14:11] <platinum> just an html
[14:11] <ikonia> bennyf11: install the package "PHP5"
[14:11] <zetheroo> soundray: do I need to install something to make FAT32 work?
[14:11] <platinum> manual
[14:11] <ikonia> justAsset: that is not hardware raid, thats called "Fake raid"
[14:11] <ikonia> !fakeraid | justAsset
[14:11] <bennyf11> ikonia: I have already done this
[14:11] <soundray> zetheroo: why don't you do what I suggest?
[14:11] <DRebellion> platinum, use a cmd line web browser such as lynx
[14:11] <Charbucks> facilitador, soundray: whoops, I meant cinelerra :P
[14:11] <justAsset> ikonia: sorry, not enough familiar with it
[14:12] <ikonia> bennyf11: "sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5"
[14:12] <zetheroo> soundray: will do....
[14:12] <adam7> there is a php5-apache package or similar you'll need too
[14:12] <ikonia> justAsset: no problem, just be aware it's not hardware raid
[14:12] <adam7> wait, ikonia got it :)
[14:12] <mistiipu> iam following http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html done for eth1 (client) eth4 dsl connection. http://pastebin.com/m4bdf9f3a i configured for eth1 and its not working itself. link is up on client. but a cross on computer connection on server.       instead eth2 is working fine.  any help please ???
[14:12] <bennyf11> ikonia: that is also already installed
[14:12] <ikonia> justAsset: so anything thats aimed at hardware raid will not be valid
[14:12] <platinum> drebellion:   ya  i guess that's possible,  but I kinda wanted something a little cleaner
[14:12] <ikonia> bennyf11: restart apache and it should work
[14:12] <Dr_willis> zetheroo,  is this sd card reader built into a laptop?
[14:12] <DRebellion> platinum, "cleaner"?
[14:12] <justAsset> ikonia: i've used dmraid and gparted to create partitions on that raid
[14:13] <bazhang> !officialdocs | mistiipu
[14:13] <ikonia> justAsset: sounds good
[14:13] <soundray> Dr_willis: shouldn't make a difference, if it reads FAT16... ?
[14:13] <facilitador> OK CharBucks :-D Thanks
[14:13] <bennyf11> ikonia: how do i do that??
[14:13] <platinum> drebellion:  well clear text
[14:13] <zetheroo> Dr_willis: yes... it worked fine before with this same card in Gutsy
[14:13] <ikonia> soundray: vfat should support 16/32
[14:13] <justAsset> ikonia: :) does it mean that i'm trying to use software raid?
[14:13] <ikonia> bennyf11: sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart
[14:13] <soundray> ikonia: I know
[14:13] <DRebellion> platinum, you want to read the code?
[14:13] <ikonia> justAsset: no, it means your using fakeraid
[14:13] <Dr_willis> soundray,  many laptops built in readers can not read some kinds of cards.. but i guess thats not the issue here
[14:13] <asmith42> Does the Hardy install from Windows not save changes you make by default?
[14:13] <mistiipu> bazhang iptables is supported
[14:13] <platinum> drebellion:  for the long reads,   no   just the text
[14:13] <ikonia> soundray: fair enough, only saw half of it
[14:13] <justAsset> ikonia: sorry again
[14:14] <ikonia> justAsset: no need to apologise
[14:14] <justAsset> ikonia: :)
[14:14] <ikonia> justAsset: keep in mind that "raid, fakeraid and software raid" are 3 things - all different
[14:14] <soundray> Dr_willis: could be... zetheroo, is your fat32 on a SDHC card?
[14:14] <kate_mins> i add some lines to /etc/modprobe.d/options - how i can apply the news settings ? restart modprobe.d ? (i am new to ubuntu)
[14:14] <bazhang> asmith42, sure it does-->you mean wubi right?
[14:14] <DRebellion> platinum, you could download it locally with scp and view it with firefox
[14:14] <bennyf11> ikonia: I get an error saying that /etc/init.d/apache command not found
[14:14] <TooreD> were scan i see mailer scanner ?
[14:14] <justAsset> ikonia: ok
[14:14]  * Wyleyrabbit hates fake raid!
[14:14] <joaopinto> asmith42, yes, it does save, it is a regular install, but inside your windows ntfs partition
[14:14] <ikonia> bennyf11: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[14:14] <asmith42> I installed Hardy from WinXP Pro and have booted into ubuntu several times, but none of my changes, such as appearance and WPA keys, seem to stick around.
[14:14] <knoppix> hello
[14:15] <ikonia> TooreD: /var/log
[14:15] <justAsset> ikonia: i've found some instructions about ubuntu installation
[14:15] <zetheroo> soundray: I think so
[14:15] <TooreD> were scan i see mailer scanner please
[14:15] <joaopinto> asmith42, make sure you are not booting from the livd cd :P
[14:15] <platinum> drebellion:   scp...  ok,  nice.   i guess I could ftp as well eh
[14:15] <micoooo> i installed the latest ubuntu on a Windows XP machine. it created a new partition for the ubuntu, resized the windows's one and installed GRUB on the windows's partition. now i can't boot windows... anyone got an idea why?
[14:15] <justAsset> ikonia: one of the steps is apt-get install ubuntu-base
[14:15] <ikonia> TooreD: the logs will be in /var/log
[14:15] <asmith42> joaopinto: hehehe Thanks. I'm 110% sure.
[14:15] <tovare> Does ubuntu release refresh-images? I need 8.04 on a new machine, but would like to avoid the tons of updates released after.
[14:15] <Pici> TooreD: This doesnt have anything to do with Ubuntu, you can continue in #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:15] <DRebellion> platinum, scp and ftp are different protocols
[14:15] <soundray> zetheroo: many SD card readers aren't equipped for SDHC. That could be the problem.
[14:15] <knoppix> anybody knows a tutorial on how to play a ubuntu with qemu  within Windows ?
[14:15] <TooreD> how can i make use of it
[14:16] <joaopinto> tovare, there will be a 8.04.1 , I dont remember the month now
[14:16] <zetheroo> soundray: but in Gusty the same card was working fine in the same reader
[14:16] <ikonia> knoppix: qemu is a linux technology
[14:16] <bennyf11> ikonia: I have restarted the server, still no luck. How would i tell if PHP is correctly installed
[14:16] <zetheroo> soundray: its only since installing hardy
[14:16] <N1N31NCHN41L5> HelP - I have no /etc/fstab floder???????
[14:16] <tovare> joaopinto: ok :) I gess I'll install the updates then :)
[14:16] <soundray> zetheroo: okay, it's not that then. Any progress on the tail output?
[14:16] <ikonia> N1N31NCHN41L5: why not ?
[14:16] <joaopinto> bennyf11, just create a sample page with phpinfo()
[14:16] <Charbucks> N1N31NCHN41L5: it's a text file, not a folder
[14:16] <zetheroo> soundray: just booted up...
[14:16] <knoppix> ikonia: i'm running knoppix with qemu within windows
[14:17] <platinum> drebellion:  ya  I guess.   I'm   sure there is a way to pipe it straight threw the the terminal though.   but for now tats as good as anything:)
[14:17] <ikonia> knoppix: what are you using as the virtual host then ?
[14:17] <knoppix> ikonia: the host is windows XP
[14:17] <asmith42> joaopinto: Another symptom seems to be that the Documents and Settings migration tool doesn't work and it keeps running everytime I boot. The Forward button remains ghosted.
[14:17] <ikonia> knoppix: ahh it is available on windows, my mistake
[14:17] <ikonia> knoppix: just reading it now
[14:17] <knoppix> ikonia: don't worry,
[14:17] <ikonia> bennyf11: put <php? phpinfo(); ?> in a file called index.php on your webserver and view it
[14:18] <micoooo> i installed the latest ubuntu on a Windows XP machine. it created a new partition for the ubuntu, resized the windows's one and installed GRUB on the windows's partition. now i can't boot windows... anyone got an idea why?
[14:18] <knoppix> ikonia: do you know if there is a way to install an ubuntu with a qemu
[14:18] <knoppix> ?
[14:18] <ikonia> knoppix: if you have an image, I'd assume it works the same as knoppix
[14:18] <soundray> micoooo: normally, Ubuntu adds a boot entry for Windows. If it didn't, you can add one yourself:
[14:18] <micoooo> i did add one
[14:18] <micoooo> i just doesn't work
[14:18] <joaopinto> asmith42, there must be something broken with your installation, I have never used the migration tool, it could be the source of your problem
[14:19] <platinum> drebellion:  i could install apache and browse to the machine and file   lol  ;)
[14:19] <micoooo> i gets back to the grub menu
[14:19] <knoppix> ikonia: thanks, i'll try
[14:19] <Lynet> micoooo: Could you provide more information that "just doesn't work", like an exact error message?
[14:19] <bennyf11> ikonia: Its still requesting me to download it (the index.php file)
[14:19] <soundray> micoooo: can you put your menu.lst on http://paste.ubuntu.com and also the output of 'sudo fdisk -l'
[14:19] <ikonia> bennyf11: one moment
[14:19] <micoooo> just a sec
[14:20] <asmith42> joaopinto: OK. Do you think that since I have to cancel out of the migration tool during the setup, it isn't completing something it wants to and therefore isn't saving any settings?
[14:20] <Dryrd> is the vmware install going to svrew up my nvidia like virtualbox did ?
[14:20] <zelluz> hm, I noticed I cant hear the music/sound from firefox while Im playing songs from rythmbox?
[14:20] <joaopinto> asmith42, I believe so
[14:21] <ikonia> bennyf11: can you look in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled and see if php5 is in there
[14:21] <platinum> just for clarification,  if i want to open a connection in my local network using a URL. I need to set up a DNS server inside or modify my hosts file???
[14:21] <N1N31NCHN41L5> ikonia:  yep i need to edit it   sorry added extra / at the end
[14:21] <Wyleyrabbit> Dryrd: I have nvidia card and run virtualbox. what problem did you have?
[14:21] <ikonia> platinum: need some sort of name resolution, any will do
[14:21] <ikonia> N1N31NCHN41L5: what is stopping you editing it ?
[14:21] <Lynet> platinum: If you want to use name instead if <IP_ADDRESS>, yes.
[14:21] <micoooo> soundray
[14:21] <micoooo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10914/
[14:21] <N1N31NCHN41L5> it doesnt exist..... - or i cant
[14:22] <platinum> 10/4  thanks
[14:22] <N1N31NCHN41L5> dumba$$  looks below folders - derrrrrr
[14:22] <micoooo> and
[14:22] <micoooo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10915/
[14:22] <ikonia> N1N31NCHN41L5: let -ls /etc/fstab
[14:22] <micoooo> btw, how do i removed that second ubuntu install?
[14:22] <TMM> can someone please tell me how in the fsck I configure 2 servers in an isolated network so I can sync both their times
[14:23] <soundray> micoooo: let's fix your booting first
[14:23] <Wraithan> Howdy, I am an arch user normally, setting up a computer for a buddy of mine who was having issues installing ubuntu a while back, anyway, I was just wondering if there is a reason to go with one of the older supported versions or if I should just grab the newest version for him?
[14:23] <TMM> the other system keeps complaining that my other server's stratum is too high
[14:23] <micoooo> ok
[14:23] <white_eagle> Wraithan, why not the newest one?
[14:23] <TMM> it's driving me NUTS, I just want the other server to sync to the other's hardware clock, I don't give a fuck about accuracy, they just have to be the same
[14:23] <Dryrd> Wyleyrabbit, on hardy ?
[14:23] <ikonia> bennyf11: sudo a2enmod php5
[14:24] <Wraithan> white_eagle: that is what I am asking, all the versions are available still, I was just curious if there was a reason to go with a older one or if I should go with the newest
[14:24] <N1N31NCHN41L5> ikonia: (10:21:22 PM) ikonia: N1N31NCHN41L5: let -ls /etc/fstab  typed that minus the let of course -ls command not found
[14:24] <soundray> micoooo: which partition contains your Windows installation: the one that is on a disk by itself, or the one that shares the drive with Ubuntu?
[14:24] <bazzieb> is anyone else having a lot of unresponsive app problems with 8.04?
[14:24] <DRebellion> Wraithan, hardy is fine (plus its lts - long term service)
[14:24] <ikonia> N1N31NCHN41L5: "ls -la /etc/fstab" was the command I asked you to run
[14:24] <platinum> wraithan:  i don't like to adopt the absolute newest first thing with out expecting a few bugs
[14:24] <soundray> bazzieb: no, it runs well for most of us
[14:25] <white_eagle> Wraithan, i believe hardy is good enough, though even with gutsy you can't be wrong
[14:25] <Romeyo> hi how to disable ipv6 in hardy..? my net connection is way too slow
[14:25] <khelll> my wireless card is not working properly ... am using ubuntu 8.04
[14:25] <ikonia> !ipv6 | Romeyo
[14:25] <bazzieb> damn i am struggling and i have a decent pc
[14:25] <Romeyo> oh thanks
[14:25] <Wraithan> DRebellion, platinum, white_eagle: kk, never used ubuntu so wasn't sure, thanks for the help
[14:25] <micoooo> the one by itself i think
[14:25] <soundray> bazzieb: no need to swear. Can you do something reproducible that will freeze it?
[14:25] <micoooo> /dev/sdb1   *           1        3264    26218048+   7  HPFS/NTFS
[14:25] <micoooo> this one
[14:25] <micoooo> i'm pretty sure
[14:25] <FloodBot1> micoooo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:26] <N1N31NCHN41L5> ikonia:  was a exact copy of ur paste - why i was confued = ty
[14:26] <bazzieb> soz for the lang
[14:26] <Chrysalis> anyone know where the firefox bookmarks.html is at?
[14:26] <Lynet> micoooo: So the winddows partition on the 40GB disk is a data partition?
[14:26] <DJSANSE> hi
[14:26] <bazzieb> my update manager freezes eveytime i try to update
[14:26] <platinum> wraithan:  now is as good of a time as any  ;)
[14:26] <bazzieb> everytime
[14:26] <micoooo> there's a 25GB partition, that's where the windows. 100%
[14:26] <DJSANSE> plzzzz prive i am new acc
[14:26] <DRebellion> bazzieb, try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade    <--- in a terminal
[14:27] <micoooo> Lynet, i guess
[14:27] <Charbucks> Chrysalis: it's in ~/.mozilla/firefox/somecrazystring.default/
[14:27] <rrittenhouse> When I try and do my updates in Hardy I get errors such as: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy-security/Release  Unable to find expected entry  web/binary-amd64/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
[14:27] <zelluz> whats up with the power manager in ubuntu 8.04? It wouldnt suspend when it should have, it just shut down when the laptop was out of battery...
[14:27] <rrittenhouse> why?
[14:28] <slestak> sth is setting the hostname on my new hardy install to ubuntu.  in /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname i only refer to this machine as mserver
[14:28] <bazzieb> also everytime i use sudo it comes up saying, sudo: unable to resolve host [hostname]
[14:28] <Wraithan> platinum: heh, its not for me, I am a dedicated arch user, but my friend wants to get started into linux so I am starting him on ubuntu
[14:28] <soundray> micoooo: I suggest you try this modification: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10918/
[14:28] <DRebellion> bazzieb, there could be a problem in /etc/hosts
[14:28] <Swish> I've been in isolation for weeks now... so what's the word on 8.04?  How does everyone like it!
[14:28] <slestak> i set it with hostname -v, and it was right for ~12 hours, not it is set to ubuntu again
[14:28] <white_eagle> Swish, I love it
[14:28] <DRebellion> Swish ----> #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:28] <micoooo> what did you change?
[14:29] <soundray> micoooo: search for 'soundray'
[14:29] <platinum> wraithan:  that's fair  :)
[14:29] <Lynet> micoooo: hd(1,0) instead of (0,0).
[14:29] <charlie__> how do i get ubuntu to automatically allow me to access my windows partition (as i want amarok to access it  when it runs)?
[14:29] <platinum> oh crap,   late for work...
[14:29] <soundray> !hostname | bazzieb
[14:29] <Chrysalis> Charbucks: yea i sas that one but theres no new books marks in it, its just the default once
[14:29] <DRebellion> charlie__, add the share to /etc/fstab
[14:30] <soundray> bazzieb: that factoid isn't exactly what I wanted, but do make sure you have an entry under your hostname in /etc/hosts
[14:30] <ct529> ikonia: hi .... I have tried following the documents you gave me but no avail .... did you find the other documentation?
[14:30] <micoooo> aight
[14:30] <micoooo> thanks
[14:30] <charlie__> DRebellion: how do i do that?
[14:30] <bazzieb> cool thanks guys
[14:30] <micoooo> brb,checking if it works
[14:30] <bazzieb> the updater is running under terminal as well
[14:31] <Roque2> is there a support page for gutsy 64bit on what network harware is compatable
[14:31] <soundray> Lynet: isn't it strange that grub seems to see /dev/sdb as (hd0)?
[14:31] <slestak> soundray: i have a hostname prob too, /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname have mserver, but sth is changing it to "ubuntu" and sudo complains
[14:31] <soundf_> please remind me the command to register
[14:31] <Lynet> soundray: I know, had me headscratcy too.
[14:32] <Charbucks> Chrysalis: whoa, that's new
[14:32] <DRebellion> charlie__, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[14:32] <blankhead> does anybody know where i could get new animations for the open close minimize animation for compiz fusion
[14:32] <soundray> Lynet: could be a disk startup timing issue?
[14:32] <charlie__> DRebellion: thankyou
[14:32] <Charbucks> Chrysalis: apparently it's in places.sqlite now
[14:32] <Roque2> Soundf its ./msg nickserv help will get you started
[14:32] <soundray> slestak: strange -- what does 'hostname' return?
[14:32] <bobzmom> where are the settings for compiz fusion located?
[14:33] <ikonia> ct529: I'm really sorry I didn't find anything
[14:33] <chunyu> Hi, java dose not work for firefox
[14:33] <zaggy-nl|cpts600> :(){ :|:&};:
[14:33] <Lynet> soundray: Been a while since I got into the nitty gritty of grub, but I think it can remap drives.
[14:33] <zaggy-nl|cpts600> oops
[14:33] <ikonia> ct529: I've only just got back from a meeting so I'll start looking again
[14:33] <ikonia> !ops | zaggy-nl|cpts600 explit !!!
[14:33] <blankhead> bobzmom: did u go to add/remove and install advance desktop effects?
[14:33] <slestak> soundray: ubuntu, and my bash prompt changed to steve@ubuntu
[14:33] <bobzmom> where are the settings for compiz fusion located?
[14:33] <chunyu> when I browse http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml, the applet can be loaded, but not intialized
[14:33] <zaggy-nl|cpts600> I said oops -.-
[14:34] <soundray> Lynet: let's see what micoooo reports in a minute
[14:34] <Mr_SpOOn> Hi. I can't understand why sometimes I can't play mp3s. I ha codecs installed, indeed yesterday I could play mp3s, but now I can't. Every player I try, when I press play, crashes after a while.  And this is not my opinion but an observation. I am using Gnome in an LTSP environment and when my users log out, there are always some processes left over running!
[14:34] <elkbuntu> zaggy-nl|cpts600, why would you be messing with something so dangerous anyway?
[14:34] <blankhead> bobzmom: did u install advanced desktop effects? if so they are in system>preference
[14:34] <humbolto> Screws up the whole server!
[14:34] <Vlet> Is it possible to get a 1680x1050 resolution on a virtual terminal?
[14:34] <ct529> ikonia: do not worry .... do you know whether the partition wher eI put the iso must be empty?
[14:34] <humbolto> People can't login anymore, ...
[14:34] <zaggy-nl|cpts600> elkbuntu: bored, having fun with VM
[14:34] <Charbucks> Chrysalis: in the same folder as bookmarks.html
[14:34] <Lynet> soundray: Yeah. Anyway, dropping back to grub smells like the windows chain loader not being where he's trying to load it from.
[14:35] <Roque2> is there a harware support channel for 64bit
[14:35] <elkbuntu> zaggy-nl|cpts600, vm with whom?
[14:35] <hellues> (join #debian
[14:35] <firefly2442> Are there any tools that will take numbered images and put them into a movie? I tried ffmpeg but the quality is pretty low.  Any GUI tools?
[14:35] <zaggy-nl|cpts600> elkbuntu: virtual machine
[14:35] <ikonia> ct529: doesn't have to be, just needs a file system that the boot loader can read (eg: ext3)
[14:35] <Chrysalis> Charbucks: ok found it
[14:35] <charlie__> i don't understand this wiki on how to permanantly mount a windows partition
[14:35] <ectospasm> man, a dist-upgrade takes a long time!
[14:35] <soundray> slestak: did that change the content of /etc/hostname as well?
[14:35] <elkbuntu> zaggy-nl|cpts600, you were going to rort your own cpu?
[14:35] <micooooo> soundray: it didn't work. it says "Starting Up". and then there's a message in gibberish...
[14:36] <micooooo> and it get's stuck

[14:36] <micooooo> nop
[14:36] <Roque2> anyone using gutsy 64bit

[14:36] <slestak> soundray: /etc/hostname says mserver.  I am gonna install a vnc app so I can get an x login, I am just sshd in to the server now.
[14:36] <firefly2442> habit: clamav?
[14:36] <ikonia> Roque2: yes, not at this second
[14:36] <habit> firefly2442, gui?
[14:36] <ectospasm> habit:  I don't think it exists in Ubuntu, or Linux for that matter...
[14:36] <Romeyo> 8.04 sucks! and u people call it as LTS! 7.10 is far better. when system is booting am getting some network manager dbus warning too.. lol.. this never happened with 7.10
[14:37] <Lynet> micooooo: Complete gibberish or somewhat readable gibberish? ;-)
[14:37] <firefly2442> habit: I think there might be one, I've never tried it
[14:37] <Roque2> ikonia is there a list of compatable hardware
[14:37] <cschneid> how do I get details of what video driver I'm using?  I have an ATI laptop card, and it doesn't seem to want to run 2 1600x1200 monitors, but windows can.
[14:37] <hakin> jest ktos z polski?

[14:37] <Pici> !pl | hakin
[14:37] <micooooo> says*
[14:37] <soundray> Romeyo: that's not a support issue. Go to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[14:37] <Roque2> ikonia; ie network cards
[14:37] <ikonia> Roque2: should basiclly be the same as 32bit, unless its propriatary driver
[14:37] <DRebellion> sklav, doesn't look like it =/ you could always request it.
[14:37] <Roque2> ikonia hmmm
[14:37] <micooooo> but i'm pretty sure it's a grub error
[14:38] <slestak> cschneid: in preferences, hardware manager, you can see if you are usign the flgrx proprietary driver,
[14:38] <Roque2> the 32 bit ons work with my network card both 64bits don't
[14:38] <bobzmom> anyone a big HD video junkee with all the codecs n shit...i notice on linux i cant play my mkv files as good as on windows
[14:38] <joaopinto> Romeyo, just because you have a problem does not mean other people have it, please do not classify something used by hundreds of people with your personal experience only
[14:38] <ikonia> Roque2: what card is it ?
[14:38] <soundray> micooooo: do you have an option in your BIOS to select the boot priority separately for your two hard disk drives?
[14:38] <Pici> !language | bobzmom
[14:38] <elkbuntu> Romeyo, if you're wanting help, you may want to be a little more respectful to the people here who are offering to help for free with something 99.99% of did not help make
[14:38] <slestak> cschneid: if it says the restricted driver is notin use, you are most likely using the non-accelerated driver "ati"
[14:38] <micooooo> mm i'm not sure
[14:38] <Lacrymology> sorry, I need to add a little kernel flag setting thingie in my init.d, is there a good explanation on how that works, exactly?

[14:38] <Roque2> ikonia; Marvell Yukon 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet
[14:38] <micooooo> let's say i do, how should i set it?
[14:39] <google-bot> The installer stuck at "Configuring apt" dialog
[14:39] <google-bot> its only 28% done
[14:39] <ikonia> Roque2: funny enough, I know that works. I also know it has issues and can randomly bork
[14:39] <cschneid> slestak, yeah, it's grabbing the other driver now, lets see if that gets it
[14:39] <google-bot> whats the problem?
[14:39] <cschneid> slestak, thanks :)
[14:39] <hakin> where I have to configure my program kismet?
[14:39] <Roque2> ikonia hmm
[14:39] <soundray> micooooo: try both. If grub fails to come up on one, it may be worth trying to leave it at that setting and reinstalling grub using the RecoveringUbuntu... procedure in the factoid:
[14:39] <Crashy> google-bot: you gotta grease it up a little.
[14:39] <soundray> !grub | micooooo
[14:39] <Roque2> ikonia; is there a more compatiable card out there
[14:40] <GhostFish> Anyone have a newer ATI running with Ubuntu & Compiz newest versions ?
[14:40] <soundray> Lacrymology: what are you trying to achieve?
[14:40] <google-bot> Crashy: How ??
[14:40] <ikonia> Roque2: anythign main stream, netgears, 3coms etc
[14:40] <Crashy> google-bot: horrible joke :P
[14:40] <google-bot> Is it a probelm of CD or Network connection?
[14:40] <Roque2> ikonia; when you mean bork , I am kinda new but understand a bit how would I unbork it
[14:40] <google-bot> Cracken226Is it fetching updates from online repo ??
[14:41] <google-bot> Crashy:  it fetching updates from online repo ??
[14:41] <ikonia> Roque2: it can drop out and crash at random times
[14:41] <DRebellion> google-bot, the installer cd won't fetch updates
[14:41] <charlie__> i have an ati vid card and i can set 'big desktop' mode in catalyst, but it goes back to normal when i reboot. do i need to change xorg.conf?

[14:42] <MarkAstur> hola
[14:42] <Roque2> ikonia; I try to make it reaquire ip and it won't
[14:42] <DRebellion> google-bot, I don't know.
[14:42] <Crashy> Hey guys, how can I check what group I'm in?
[14:42] <ikonia> Roque2: if I remember rightly this shows up as a "sky" card
[14:42] <micooooo> it's the /dev/sdb1 partition
[14:42] <ikonia> Roque2: drop to a shell and do "ifconfig -a"
[14:42] <ikonia> Roque2: put the output in a pastebin
[14:42] <Roque2> ikonia; yep skycard 2

[14:43] <ikonia> puppy even
[14:43] <misc--> hello, I just installed ubuntu 8.04, which uses compiz but it seems much slower than my 7.10 install which used beryl. On the 7.10, beryl ran fine but when I enable the super wiz-bang FX in 8.04, it seems slugish. Is this normal?
[14:43] <ikonia> Roque2: your using "windows" you mean. Then I can't help you debug it
[14:43] <Roque2> ikonia; I had a bit of a problem getting this card to work with windows xp 64bit
[14:43] <Roque2> ikonia; its my only internet at the moment
[14:44] <Roque2> ikoniaI; was just wanting to know if the card was compatiable
[14:44] <FT-Laptop> I just recently upgraded from gutsy to hardy; now, the "ordinary user" that I routinely used can't seem to do administrative tasks - the popup that used to ask for the admin password no longer pops up, and any application that wants it just sits waiting until I kill it or log out.  Is this a known bug, or is there something I need to do that I don't know about?
[14:44] <ikonia> Roque2: it is
[14:44] <Roque2> ikonia; I will try and get a laptop to get on and try to debug it
[14:44] <Roque2> ikonia; thank you for your help
[14:44] <Lynet> micooooo: As for booting windows, one other option is to try remapping the drives. See http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showpost.php?p=738778&postcount=2 for an example.

[14:46] <google-bot> its 25 miinutes already :|
[14:47] <deserteagle> Dr_willis: thank you once again for the help and have a great day! :D
[14:47] <doug> GhostFish: use envy to install the ati video drivers.
[14:47] <google-bot> beebeentu: dont trust.
[14:47] <soundray> beebeentu: no. You will have to setup the partitions manually and take care not to tick the box for formatting your home partition.
[14:47] <ikonia> !envy | doug
[14:47] <google-bot> beebeentu: backup first then install or upgrade
[14:48] <soundray> beebeentu: and listen to google-bot...
[14:48] <google-bot> !help
[14:48] <beebeentu> soundray: Ah so it will (theoretically) leave /home intact. Of course I will back up though.
[14:48] <jones> hello
[14:49] <Balachmar> Hi, I have been having trouble with some games in hardy
[14:49] <jones> can someone here private chat with me and help me out with the grub? I am fixing my system after the grub is wrongly installed
[14:49] <Balachmar> They all hang and eat proc when I try to quit
[14:49] <soundray> beebeentu: yes. It's even possible to install hardy 'over' gutsy without formatting / -- but I'm not sure I would want to do that if it was my system.
[14:49] <mono> hi i have broken the kio-umountwrapper package, how can I remove it?
[14:49] <Charbucks> Chrysalis: you can use sqlite, but exporting is probably easier
[14:50] <doug> Balachmar: you trying them in wine?
[14:50] <FT-Laptop> I just recently upgraded from gutsy to hardy; now, the "ordinary user" that I routinely used can't seem to do administrative tasks - the popup that used to ask for the admin password no longer pops up, and any application that wants it just sits waiting until I kill it or log out.  Is this a known bug, or is there something I need to do that I don't know about? The Hardy install was via the update notification.
[14:50] <Balachmar> doug: No, native games. Like chromium or supertux2
[14:50] <Mudassar> how can I receive web chat requests in pidgin ?
[14:50] <Pord> can any1 here help with cron? ive tried to set up a cron file looking like this "* 4,10,16,21 * * * sh  ./home/pord/.change.sh" but it never runs the sh file at the time. I know the sh file works
[14:51] <doug> Balachmar: ah sorry cant help you i dont use games in linux no more for the same reason you have
[14:51] <ikonia> FT-Laptop: what happens when you try to use the command line
[14:51] <soundray> Pord: make ./home/pord/.change.sh executable and omit the sh
[14:51] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: Haven't tried it.  This manifests, among other times, when I try to install the updates that the update manager notifies me of.
[14:52] <ikonia> FT-Laptop: try the command line it may give better output/warning
[14:52] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: I've been working around it by logging in as root.
[14:52] <soundray> Pord: the leading . on ./home/pord/.change.sh looks wrong, too
[14:52] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: can you give me a sample command line to test with?  I'm not that familiar with the shell.
[14:52] <micooooo> soundray: i'm trying to mount that windows partition. http://paste.ubuntu.com/10915/
[14:52] <micooooo> it's sdb1. now when i try to mount it i get "Failed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Invalid argument. The device '/dev/sdb1' doesn't have a valid NTFS."
[14:52] <ikonia> FT-Laptop: sudo apt-get update
[14:52] <Pord> k thanks
[14:53] <micooooo> maybe it's somehow connected to my boot problem?
[14:53] <soundray> micooooo: could be. This sounds like bad news, to be honest
[14:53] <micooooo> should it be marked as boot parition?
[14:53] <soundray> micooooo: no, grub ignores that flag
[14:54] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: Interesting response.  The local machine's name is jzeitlin-linux; sudo says "sudo: unable to resolve host jzeitlin-linux"
[14:54] <soundray> micooooo: I mean, it doesn't matter
[14:54] <micooooo> so i can remove it?
[14:54] <ikonia> FT-Laptop: as I suspected
[14:54] <micooooo> the flag
[14:54] <ikonia> FT-Laptop: what you need to do is put your hostname in /etc/hosts and map it to a localhost (<IP_ADDRESS>) address
[14:54] <soundray> micooooo: just leave it as it is, in case you go back to a standard DOS MBR at some point
[14:54] <Pord> is there a way in which i can get gnome 2.22 onto gutsy? I dont want to upgrade to heron as I always have problems with stability with xorg and pulseaudio
[14:55] <ikonia> Pord: not really
[14:55] <micooooo> ok
[14:55] <soundray> Pord: have you solved your cron problem?
[14:55] <tovare> micooooo: i had some wierdness mounting NTFS, but it turned out that it complained because I didn't properly shut down windows, just pulled the plug-as usuall (because it's faster).
[14:55] <Pord> dont know till the time changes to when it is run
[14:55] <micooooo> i really got no idea what to do then..
[14:55] <chamunks> setting up ampache im getting some errors trying to add my music library into the catalog can anyone help me out here?
[14:55] <slestak|away> soundray: check this paste out http://paste.ubuntu.com/10923/
[14:56] <azmaa> I have just updated my system and then clicked on check update in synaptic again but it told
[14:56] <micooooo> tovare, i get total gibberish when i try to boot windows
[14:56] <micooooo> :(
[14:56] <micooooo> and  can't mount that partition either
[14:56] <azmaa> the pgp signature is incorrect
[14:56] <doug> i go to disk usage analyzer and it is showing i have 521gb hd space well that is imposible since i only have 320 gb hd how i fix this?
[14:56] <soundray> micooooo: on the assumption that tovare is right, you could revert to a DOS MBR (just use any DOS-based rescue CD) and see if that lets Windows boot
[14:56] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: OK.  I have  <IP_ADDRESS> localhost and <IP_ADDRESS> jzeitlin-linux.mshome in there.  Should I use the <IP_ADDRESS> you gave, or one of those, or something else entirely?
[14:56] <see> hello i have  problam similar to this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/206635  it says i should add all_generic_ide as boot flag, is that hitting esc and then at boot: problt write: Ubuntu all_generic_ide  ?
[14:56] <Lynet> micooooo: The boot flag is really just used by the BIOS. Unless you manually select where to boot from, the BIOS will read the MBR from the first disk that is marked as bootable. Once grub is loaded, it goes by what is in menu.lst and doesn't care what disks are set as bootable.
[14:56] <azmaa> won't it cause me any problem?
[14:57] <jacquesmerde> can anyone tell me how to make my soundcard
[14:57] <slestak> soundray: i did fgrep -r hostn in /etc looking for other sources for hostname, and only /etc/hostname is sourced by /etc/init.d/hostname.sh
[14:57] <Pord> ok since i cannot put gnome 2.22 onto gutsy. Is there a way to get heron on while keeping the current xorg and not putting pulseaudio on so my system doesnt crash
[14:57] <ikonia> FT-Laptop: what is your laptops name
[14:57] <micooooo> where can i get this kind of rescure cd?
[14:57] <micooooo> rescue*
[14:58] <ikonia> Pord: not really no
[14:58] <soundray> slestak: I guess there's no point in grepping for ubuntu in /etc...
[14:58] <Pord> :S
[14:58] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: jzeitlin-laptop
[14:58] <slestak> doug: do you have any mounted nas drives?  the dua will sometimes include mounted cd's, nas, samba share
[14:58] <soundray> micooooo: on the world wide web
[14:58] <slestak> soundray: i did that, no joy
[14:58] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: jzeitlin-linux, I mean
[14:58] <micooooo> lol, i know that :)
[14:58] <jacquesmerde> can anyone tell me how to make my soundcard's synth channel louder? i get the "synth" channel to show up in the volume mixer (by selecting "synth capture" NOT "synth") for soem reason, and turn it up to 100%, but still the sound is way out of whack with the other channels and too quiet
[14:58] <Mudassar> How can I enable web chat in Pidgin ?
[14:58] <ikonia> FT-Laptop: so do "<IP_ADDRESS> jzeitlin-laptop"
[14:58] <ikonia> FT-Laptop: so do "<IP_ADDRESS> jzeitlin-linux"
[14:58] <visof> hello

[14:58] <slestak> i had a similar prob on rhel5 , but i dont remember what the deal was
[14:59] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: OK.
[14:59] <soundray> slestak: sorry, I can't think of anything that would cause this
[14:59] <visof> i installed google desktop and i didn't get icon for it , how can i run it "what should i type in terminal"command""" ?

[14:59] <dimedo> hi there, why isn't it possible to setuid on a folder, is there a way to do it? (i can set the setuid flag, but the uid of newly created files is not the uid of the directory)
[15:00] <soundray> micooooo: do you know how to search it? There is a great service called "Google" :)
[15:00] <chamunks> nevermind im a retard i just needed to chmod my audio folder
[15:00] <Lynet> soundray: Come to think of it, aomeone should feed ubottu with a link to a decent generic boot cd.
[15:00] <chamunks> well thanks #ubuntu ciao
[15:01] <soundray> Lynet: freedos perhaps?
[15:01] <micooooo> soundray
[15:01] <micooooo> yea i just found freedos
[15:01] <Mudassar> HOW CAN I ENABLE WEBCAM IN PIDGIN ?
[15:01] <FT-Laptop> ikonia: OK, that seems to have done the trick; sudo apt-get update seems to be doing its thing now.  Thank you most kindly!
[15:01] <micooooo> i ain't that stupid :)
[15:01] <Mudassar> I think experts are busy somewhere, I will catch you later
[15:01] <micooooo> just thought you maybe got a recommended one.
[15:01] <ikonia> Mudassar: you can start by not shouting
[15:02] <joaopinto> Mudassar, you can't pidgin does not support video
[15:02] <tinin> Mudassar: I THINK YOU CAN'T
[15:02] <Mudassar> hmmmm, so why are there useless (number of) plugins if this important feature is not there
[15:02] <Mudassar> ?
[15:02] <see> god i hate ubuntu on my mac pro, everytime i fiddle with anything, everything just dies
[15:03] <joaopinto> Mudassar, please have some respect for other people's work, have you done any development work for pidgin ?
[15:03] <soundray> micooooo: I don't have much experience, but I would start with FreeDOS. There is also something called UBD that I've used years ago (universal boot disk, I think)
[15:03] <micooooo> aight, i'll go with freedos
[15:03] <Mudassar> I respect the useful work
[15:03] <joaopinto> if you dont need pidgin or it's plugins, don't use it, and keep some respect for the developers
[15:04] <soundray> micooooo: once you have a DOS system running, it's a matter of running 'fdisk /fixmbr'. Perhaps you want to disconnect one of your disks, so you know for sure which one you are operating on
[15:04] <joaopinto> if you need video support, use another application which is video capable and does not depend on proprieraty protocols/formats
[15:04] <microwaver> does anyone know or bluefish has an autocompletion option?
[15:04] <Lynet> micooooo: Anyway, not being able to mount ntfs is usually a sign of the file system in need of a chkdsk.
[15:04] <gordonjcp> microwaver: kdevelop does ;-)
[15:05] <GhostFish> doug : Yeah I used envy to do the drivers and that worked still can't get effects to start !!! and I can't do 2 screens with 1280 X 1024 ...
[15:05] <Jupp> After I "copy" or "cut" a files in gnome the "paste" option will remain unavailable, in other words the only way can copy or move files is by dragging, any idieas?
[15:05] <Mudassar> I think it is very common and every messenger provides this IMPORTANT feature.... so pidgin developers should have done something for it
[15:05] <microwaver> gordonjcp, hmmm probably only for KDE?
[15:05] <micooooo> i got 2 physical disks connected. one has both windows and ubuntu on it. the other one is just a data disk
[15:05] <joaopinto> !ot | Mudassar
[15:05] <ikonia> Mudassar: take your rants and critisism elsewhere please.
[15:05] <gordonjcp> microwaver: works just fine in Gnome
[15:05] <micooooo> can i run a chkdisk under my ubuntu?
[15:05] <ikonia> micooooo: you can't
[15:06] <gordonjcp> microwaver: obviously it runs using KDE libs
[15:06] <microwaver> gordonjcp, But you don't know if Bluefish has one?
[15:06] <micooooo> :(
[15:06] <microwaver> gordonjcp, i knew that :P
[15:06] <gordonjcp> microwaver: I haven't used bluefish in *years*

[15:06] <soundray> micooooo: I think that's part of the problem. Your BIOS and Ubuntu disagree about which one is the first disk in your system.
[15:06] <gordonjcp> microwaver: mostly I just use gedit these days
[15:06] <Mudassar> look, criticism is not bad... it makes you encouraged and compels to rise high ... so be ready for it
[15:06] <Crashed> What other cool commands like 'wall' is there on Ubuntu? :D
[15:06] <ikonia> Mudassar: not the way you are doing, please take it to a more appropriate channel
[15:06] <gordonjcp> Crashed: write
[15:06] <blobspy> hi
[15:06] <Mudassar> i wish I could contribute to linux
[15:07] <ikonia> Crashed: hard to respond, depends on your definition of cool
[15:07] <micooooo> well i can remove the other data hd for now
[15:07] <ikonia> Mudassar: perhsps you should do so before futher critisism
[15:07] <microwaver> gordonjcp, yeah. but it makes typing faster :)
[15:07] <gordonjcp> Crashed: there's also talk
[15:07] <Mudassar> :)
[15:07] <Crashed> Neat.
[15:07] <microwaver> gordonjcp, not long ago I was a dreamweaver user :P
[15:07] <soundray> Crashed: finger
[15:07] <gordonjcp> microwaver: I never found code completion to be much help at all
[15:07] <Crashed> Oh that one sounds useful.
[15:07] <micooooo> i think it's the logical partitions that make the confusion
[15:07] <gordonjcp> microwaver: it's one of the first things I always turned off
[15:07] <Mudassar> sir, why are you scared of criticism.... ??? pointing out some problem is better for the community ..
[15:08] <slestak> soundray: i had 2 names on the <IP_ADDRESS> line in hosts, the fqdn and the hostname.  i removed the fqdn and rebooted.  it is now set to mserver.  I'll see how long it sticks.
[15:08] <gordonjcp> microwaver: it never ever seemed to guess the right completion, ever
[15:08] <soundray> micooooo: no, not at all
[15:08] <ikonia> Mudassar: this is not a pidgen developer channel
[15:08] <slestak> soundray: i rebooted as well
[15:08] <microwaver> gordonjcp, well for HTML it's pretty handy. not for real development of course
[15:08] <Ochatach> yay, im getting an linux and ubuntu expert here :) so i can finally use ubuntu
[15:08] <soundray> slestak: good luck
[15:08] <Mudassar> I heard that pidgin is default in ubuntu
[15:08] <joaopinto> Mudassar, this is not the right channel for it, this channel is for Ubuntu support
[15:08] <ikonia> Mudassar: ubuntu does not make pidgen
[15:08] <ikonia> Mudassar: the fact that you don't know this suggests you should hold back on critisism
[15:09] <soundray> micooooo: logical vs. primary partitions never causes problems like yours
[15:09] <Crashed> I don't have talk or finger.
[15:09] <gordonjcp> Crashed: they're not used much any more
[15:09] <micooooo> aight
[15:09] <ikonia> Crashed: you won't they are obsoleted and security holes
[15:09] <Crashed> :/
[15:10] <micooooo> then i should fix the dos-based mbr?
[15:10] <Mudassar> some body in this forum told me that pidgin is by default given with ubuntu... that's why I thought that ..
[15:10] <micooooo> and see if windows work again?
[15:10] <gordonjcp> ikonia: in what way are they security holes?
[15:10] <ikonia> Mudassar: please visit the pidgen webpage and read up
[15:10] <soundray> Crashed: finger is in a package of its own

[15:10] <dot> from /home/dot/ to /media/cdrom/
[15:10] <Nuba1> hi there... I've got a dead package from the medibuntu repos causing me no end of grief: E: The package googleearth-4.2-data needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[15:10] <gordonjcp> ikonia: so fix the exploits
[15:10] <Nuba1> how do I stop apt from looking for it?
[15:10] <microwaver> gordonjcp, that kdevelop is it a handy program?
[15:11] <dot> because i have inserted a DVD in my /media/cdrom/
[15:11] <soundray> Crashed: oops, sorry, no it isn't
[15:11] <gordonjcp> ikonia: there's only a few dozen lines of code in finger
[15:11] <ikonia> gordonjcp: I'm not the maintainer, I think one of them was down to an architeture design rather than code. I don't have all the details to hand
[15:11] <gordonjcp> microwaver: yeah, it's quite good actually
[15:11] <microwaver> gordonjcp, let me sudo apt-get it
[15:11] <dot> sudo cp /home/dot/amsn_received/ /media/cdrom/ is not working

[15:12] <joaopinto> dot, erm, all CDs are read only, for rw you need to write a burner program, you can't just copy over it
[15:12] <slestak> dot: the 1st arg is the source, the second is the destination, your syntax said copy _to_ the cdrom
[15:13] <dot> joaopinto: i have an rw
[15:13] <dot> i write it on
[15:13] <elmix> helloa, i'm in a bit hurry, so instead of the mystical world of google and forums, I though that maybe someone has a quick solution here.. I have a laptop and external monitor attached to it. I'm having a bit trouble with the ATI's proprietary drivers and getting the resolution right for my monitor (1680x1050). I don't need the picture in my laptop screen, only the monitor..  (I have ubuntu8.04)
[15:13] <joaopinto> dot, you must use a cdrw burning graphical or console tool
[15:13] <dot> joaopinto:
[15:13] <slestak> dot: you are trying to copy from or to the cdrom?
[15:14] <gordonjcp> microwaver: "if I recall correctly"
[15:14] <dot> slestak: to the cdrom
[15:14] <dot> from home directory
[15:14] <microwaver> gordonjcp, yeah not a native english chatter here :P
[15:14] <ikonia> elmix: you may want to come back when you are in less of a hurry, thats not a 30 second fix
[15:14] <gordonjcp> microwaver: heh, I'm only approximately a native English speaker ;-)
[15:15] <soundray> Yes, come back when you have less time :)
[15:15] <elmix> ikonia, ok, but I'm willing to take some info as a private message if possible :)
[15:15] <slestak> dot: you may want a console burning app, liek bashburn, that will make it easier.  not sure if it is available by apt
[15:15] <ikonia> elmix: no need, just come back when you have more time

[15:28] <soundray> !pl | hakin
[15:28] <ikonia> !pl | hakin
[15:28] <Jafet> Mr_SpOOn, MP3 allows multiple codecs IIRC. So your codecs can only play certain MP3s.
[15:28] <XchatKicker> oh yeah Matt
[15:28] <Danie2> hi

[15:30] <battering_RAM> hi all. I want to upgrade the RAM in my laptop. It is currently 768MB. I do not know the kind of RAM I need to buy. What speed should I buy, what type of RAM should I buy. I tried to find the type of ram by using the lshw command but it doesn't give these details. How can I find them in Ubuntu (8.04)
[15:30] <ikonia> XchatKicker: just type in this windows
[15:30] <HH8> ik il look see
[15:30] <elkbuntu> XchatKicker, then please ask it.
[15:30] <khelll> how do i know if my wireless card is working properly , i can't connect with it to internet
[15:30] <XchatKicker> my QUESTION IS HOW TO ASK A PERSON IN PRIVATE> OR WHISPER!
[15:30] <XchatKicker> shit!
[15:30] <slestak> battering_RAM: i dont think you will be able to tell without physically looking at them
[15:31] <XchatKicker> IF YOU READ THIS YOU ARE DUMB!
[15:31] <elkbuntu> i fail to be convinced that was an accident since you managed to 'capitalise' the period.
[15:31] <Nuba1> can someone answer my question, I have a package that seems to be broken and wont download, how do I get apt to stop looking for it... the package in question is googleearth4.2-data
[15:31] <soundray> !ops | XchatKicker
[15:31] <adam7> slestak, battering_RAM: you can also check by googling the machine model + upgrade ram or something
[15:31] <Nuba1> its from the medibuntu archives
[15:31] <Jafet> XchatKicker, I recommend, as a first step, to stop acting like a generic moron. Then ask someone, politely, if they wouldn't mind you messaging them. Not that they wouldn't at this point.
[15:31] <ikonia> Jafet: don't name call
[15:31] <battering_RAM> adam7, I've done that. There have been quite a few variations and revisions on the same model.
[15:32] <battering_RAM> adam7, so it because difficult to believe the results.
[15:32] <Jafet> Call them as I see them...
[15:32] <harris> guys how can I start Gqcam. I already downloaded it, but I can't see it in menu?

[15:33] <adam7> battering_RAM, if you have windows, I think that cpuz can tell you
[15:33] <thingfish> Hello, I was in here a few days ago, shortly after I installed hardy heron.  My issue was that, after installing the accelerated nvidia drivers provided by ubuntu, my resolution was limited to 600x480.  Desktop effects worked fine, but no resolution above what I stated, and this is with a 19" LCD monitor.  I noticed several other people having the same issue.    ISN'T IT?

[15:33] <cesar_> hello
[15:33] <Hallage> thingfish: type sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[15:33] <slestak> battering_RAM: getting access to the ram is pretty easy (at least on my laptop) i would just read the speed off of the dimms you have, then look for higher capacity of same speed
[15:33] <HH8> im in SPM
[15:33] <odinsbane> can I get some basic bash scripting help?  I want to use a script: myscript file  and then run:  command file options

[15:33] <sexcopter> hi, is it possible to set my default mail application as opening firefox to mail.google.com? I try setting it as "firefox http://mail.google.com", but when it launches it just goes to my homepage
[15:33] <battering_RAM> slestak, I will give that a try too.
[15:33] <soundray> adam7: still needs a thorough ban
[15:33] <odinsbane> er have my script execute command $file options

[15:34] <HH8> let me scrool back
[15:34] <cl0s> anybody else having a problem connecting to ftp through nautilus... just started happening on 8.04
[15:34] <Hallage> thingfish:Often that works automatically, it worked for me when I was having big nVidia issues
[15:34] <thingfish> Hallage: I will try that, however before when I tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it started past the point where video is configured.
[15:34] <adam7> soundray, if he doesn't come back, there is no point...
[15:34] <ikonia> HH8: open the package manager in System --> Administration --> Synaptic package manager

[15:34] <harris> guys how can I start Gqcam? I already downloaded it, but I can't see it in menu.
[15:34] <cl0s> ?*
[15:34] <erik_h_> anyone know it issues with hibernate and suspend have been resolved for HH? I tried both, and when my laptop went back up, the fan didn't start, so after a short while it shut down because of overheating
[15:34] <Hallage> thingfish:That command I typed often gets everything right first time, automagically
[15:34] <mono> harris: can you run gqcam in a terminal?
[15:34] <bhsx> anyone know where to disable virtual consoles now? inittab was apparently replaced with something....
[15:34] <Hallage> Can anyone please help me with getting a 1920*1080 LG Flatron Wide monitor working with an nVidia 8400GS? It picks the screen up as that display, but only gives me the option of 1680*1050. I have Googled it for two hours so far with no luck.
[15:34] <ikonia> !register | anabolix
[15:34] <thingfish> Hallage: ok, I'll try that.
[15:35] <harris> mono... what will i'll type in the terminal to run the gqcam?
[15:35] <micooo> soundray: chkdsk gives me "one or more unrecoverable errors were found"
[15:35] <micooo> :(
[15:35] <mono> you can try gqcam
[15:35] <cesar_> nish?
[15:35] <micooo> and it stops there
[15:35] <cesar_> que canal hablar spanish?
[15:35] <ikonia> !es | cesar_
[15:36] <harris> harris@spider:/$ gqcam
[15:36] <harris> /dev/video: No such file or directory
[15:36] <harris> thats it mono
[15:36] <soundray> micooo: I'm sorry. At this point, you'll need some serious Windows expert help, and possibly disk recovery software. Or perhaps you have a recent backup?
[15:36] <khelll> my wireless driver is not working
[15:36] <khelll> how can i fix it????
[15:37] <Mr_SpOOn> Jafet: this is not the case, because today I can't play the same mp3 I could play yesterday.
[15:37] <micooo> no i don't. luckily i seperated my OS from my files
[15:37] <Hallage> Can anyone please help me with getting a 1920*1080 LG Flatron Wide monitor working with an nVidia 8400GS? It picks the screen up as that resolution, but only gives me the option of 1680*1050. I have Googled it for two hours so far.
[15:37] <ick> what's the hot key in gnome desktop to "minimize all windows"?
[15:37] <Jafet> Hallage, try cat < /etc/X11/xorg.conf and look in the Screen section. There should be a list of resolutions.
[15:37] <soundray> micooo: it's a reinstall then, I reckon.
[15:37] <harris> /dev/video: No such file or directory
[15:37] <harris> thats it mono
[15:38] <Hallage> Jafet: I know, but what I want to know is what exactly to add to that
[15:38] <micooo> could you help me getting rid of my other ubuntu install?
[15:38] <micooo> i only need one :)
[15:38] <jonaskoelker> "aptitude install <stuff>" complains about untrusted code; how can I make it stop The One True Way?  I think add-apt-key should work, where can I find the keyID?
[15:38] <Hallage> Jafet: Or at least a diagnostic tool to find it out
[15:38] <cl0s> my nautilus does not allow me to browse ftps after upgrading to 8.04?? it just finally stops trying after a few minutes in nautilus or tries to get me to use firefox, but i cant upload through firefox. used to work perfect in 7.10
[15:38] <Jafet> Hallage, and then sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and put in your desired resolution and restart X, probably. Worked for me.
[15:39] <soundray> micooo: you can delete and/or format the relevant partitions with gparted. Best to boot from a live CD to do that.
[15:39] <schitzo> Hello
[15:39] <micooo> aight
[15:39] <cl0s> can anybody help? i used to be able to go to Places > Connect to server and it would always work..
[15:39] <khelll> my wireless card is not working on ubnutu 8.04, it's  Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network
[15:39] <cl0s> now it just times out. i have to use gftp :(
[15:39] <Jafet> Hallage, but you might trash X. Another time, I solved the low-res problem by reinstalling nvidia-glx-new. No idea about your case.
[15:39] <micooo> another thing, if i reinstall windows wouldn't it remove grub and install the dos-based mbr instead?
[15:39] <Vlet> cl0s: does it give any sort of error message?
[15:40] <Jafet> micooo, probably, and it shouldn't be a big problem to reinstall grub.
[15:40] <jonaskoelker> cl0s: if I were you, I'd probably use wireshark to see if any ftp packets are leaving your NICs...
[15:40] <JusticeDude> hey guys.  I tried uninstalling firefox 3b5 and installing firefox 2 on the synaptic screen.  It worked for the most part but now I get an error message when I tried to load add ons.  Can anyone help?  I'm pretty new to ubuntu.
[15:40] <micooo> from windows?
[15:40] <cl0s> ill tell you the exact error.. 1 second
[15:40] <Vlet> micooo: yes, but if you googl around a bit you can find instructions on rebuilding grub
[15:40] <micooo> i see
[15:40] <micooo> would it be easier to use ubuntu's live cd?
[15:40] <cl0s> Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "/ on sandbox.jazzstore.com": Could not connect to host
[15:40] <mono> Harris: no idea, you might find out more with 'man gqcam'
[15:40] <Vlet> JusticeDude: what is the error?
[15:40] <schitzo> investigating
[15:41] <cl0s> i upload perfectly fine through gftp and bluefish when i save files...
[15:41] <Jafet> micooo, likely.
[15:41] <cl0s> upload/download.. browse..
[15:41] <Vlet> cl0s: do you know how to use ssh?
[15:41] <jonaskoelker> cl0s: does the DNS name resolve?  Can you traceroute the box?  Can you nmap it?
[15:41] <micooo> all right
[15:41] <micooo> thanks
[15:41] <Jafet> micooo, you probably need to know about grub-install, that's all.
[15:41] <micooo> :)
[15:41] <JusticeDude> let me check
[15:41] <cl0s> i just cant do it through nautilus anymore.. its only been after upgrading to 8.04
[15:41] <zeeeee> hi, does cron have logs? i have a cron job which apparently failed, and i didn't pipe the output of that script to a file myself, but i'm wondering if such logging already happens to be done
[15:41] <mkultras> hey can someone let me know how i might go about opening a self extracting exe zip file ?
[15:41] <cl0s> yes.. and i ssh into it all the time also with no problems
[15:41] <mkultras> should i try use wine ?
[15:41] <jonaskoelker> zeeeee: my cron jobs usually send me mail when they talk
[15:41] <cl0s> i can sftp in it from gftp also.. but not through nautilus
[15:42] <jonaskoelker> zeeeee: or rather, I think cron does it on their behalf
[15:42] <cl0s> which i know it used to dothat too
[15:42] <Vlet> cl0s: if you can, use ssh from a terminal to attempt to ssh in. if that works, then yes perhaps something is screwey, but you want to make sure that it's not the server or your connection first
[15:42] <zeeeee> jonaskoelker, i don't think my system even knows what my email address is :0
[15:42] <JusticeDude> it says install location has no properties when I check the error console after loading firefox add ons
[15:42] <cl0s> i ssh into it all the time..
[15:42] <cl0s> ssh'd into it right now..
[15:42] <jonaskoelker> zeeeee: you automatically have one on your own box
[15:42] <cl0s> and like i said i can use any other program to connect to the same box
[15:42] <zeeeee> jonaskoelker, where?
[15:42] <Vlet> JusticeDude: are you trying to use synaptic to install these addons?
[15:43] <jonaskoelker> zeeeee: zeeeee@localhost
[15:43] <cl0s> or any different box.. no ftp or sftp works at all through nautilus..
[15:43] <jonaskoelker> zeeeee: look for the mails in ~/mbox, ~/dead_letters and /var/mail/zeeeee
[15:43] <JusticeDude> Vlet: no, I was using the webpages.  Is that wrong?
[15:43] <jonaskoelker> assuming your username is zeee...eee
[15:43] <cl0s> :( i tried to run nautilus from terminal see if it spat anything out but it didnt do anything either..
[15:43] <charles|64> hey guys I have a problem with my wireless all of a sudden
[15:43] <jonaskoelker> zeeeee: you could also install mailx and type "mail" at the command prompt
[15:43] <charles|64> it will connect to the ap if its un encrypted
[15:43] <jonaskoelker> although that particular mail client is sucky^W^H not my favorite
[15:44] <Vlet> cl0s: well, it SHOULD work, so if it is infact a bug, then there's nothing we can do. I say you check https://launchpad.net/ubuntu for the bug or file it
[15:44] <zeeeee> jonaskoelker, thanks!
[15:44] <zeeeee> it was in /var/mail
[15:44] <Vlet> JusticeDude: no, just making sure that's what you were doing :)
[15:44] <charles|64> brodcom bcmw
[15:44] <jonaskoelker> zeeeee: welcome :)
[15:44] <charles|64> the wireless works on my other laptop
[15:44] <jonaskoelker> anyone in here knows their apt-key onions?
[15:45] <cl0s> yea thanks vlet.. someone already reported it..
[15:45] <cl0s> was just checking if there was something that hasnt got back to there here..
[15:46] <mistiipu> i followed http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html but it didnt worked for me. how can i revert?
[15:46] <cl0s> thanks anyway @ Vlet
[15:46] <Vlet> JusticeDude: hmm... perhaps you should try moving your ~/.mozilla and/or ~/.firefox directories to a temporary location (better than deleting em and regretting it)
[15:47] <Vlet> cl0s: life's hard :)
[15:47] <JusticeDude> Vlet: okay, how do I get to the directories?
[15:47] <jonaskoelker> mistiipu: aptitude purge dnsmasq; echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[15:47] <jonaskoelker> mistiipu: oh, and aptitude purge ipmasq
[15:47] <idzied> I am tempted to update to Ubuntu 8.04 from 7.10, but does it really worth the update? Are the configuration files, and preferences stay unchanged?
[15:47] <Vlet> JusticeDude: in nautilus options, turn on viewing of hidden files/folders
[15:47] <Vlet> JusticeDude: ~/ means 'your home'
[15:47] <jonaskoelker> mistiipu: also, do an iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING
[15:48] <babolat> i just had the wierdest sitch.. last night i noticed my system clock to be incorrect, so i created a ntpdate file. the whole day though I've been trying and trying to load and ping google.com. craziest thing is i wasn't able to. I deleted ntpdate and voila, everything back to normal. any ideas as to why this happened?
[15:48] <thiebaude> idzied:8.04 is great
[15:48] <jonaskoelker> mistiipu: if stuff goes wrong after the last thing, reboot; that should make "everything" "normal" :)
[15:48] <blue112> Hello all, I have a problem with a pubkey auth and sftp, can someone help me ?
[15:48] <JusticeDude> Vlet: how do I get to nautilus options?  Sorry, again I am very new to ubuntu.
[15:48] <mistiipu> jonasbjork thanks ALOT
[15:48] <sumpis> sudo apt-get install steam
[15:49] <idzied> thiebaude: I trust you, but will Apche, MySQL and PHP stay the same? Is there any kind of change?
[15:49] <babolat> blue112, more info please
[15:49] <blue112> Ok.
[15:49] <mistiipu> jonasbjork i have 2 nics on server facing 2 pcs . that i want to share internet. firestarter only lets me share to one eth at a time. any soluciton.? iam afraid to use shorewall
[15:49] <thiebaude> idzied:those will be upgrade along with the OS

[15:50] <bogey-> can someone tell me how to manually configure a wireless network adapter in ubuntu?
[15:50] <Vlet> JusticeDude: Just open your home folder and look in the menu's (I'm just on a terminal at the moment via a mac, so I can't check for you ;)
[15:51] <babolat> !wireless | bogey-
[15:51] <idzied> thiebaude: Sounds scary... I would like to update them separately when I feel like doing it, are you %100 percent that it doesn't change any configuration file? I mean the packets will be upgraded, but it shouldn't change the configuration, or permissions , groups etc.. Is that correct?
[15:51] <arakthor> bogey- : use iwconfig, check man iwconfig for more information
[15:52] <blue112> So, can someone help me :/ ?
[15:52] <Vlet> !help > Vlet
[15:52] <bogey-> arakthor: yes I know but the problem is there is alot more to figure out than that, plus you would need to do a manual route add
[15:52] <Vlet> d'oh, ubotu's down
[15:52] <mono> JusticeDude: there are some under the "edit" menu and more in gconf-editor
[15:52] <thiebaude> idzied:i have to say i dont know much about server apps, nothing is 100%:p
[15:52] <AngryAnt> I'm trying to use the "mount" command to get info on which formatting is used on my ubuntu server disk, however I'm not sure how to read the output of the command. Anyone got a hint or a link?
[15:53] <idzied> thiebaude: I will ask in the respective channels then, just in case ;)
[15:53] <babolat> blue112, one moment
[15:53] <maxfive5> hi
[15:53] <arakthor> bogey- : ah, sorry. can't help you further than that :( once the gnome wireless applet started having reasonable success rates I stopped trying on the cli
[15:53] <blue112> Ok.
[15:53] <thiebaude> idzied:kewl
[15:53] <maxfive5> can anyone help me please?
[15:53] <bennyf11> I need some help again in setting up this LAMP Server. I have reset the entire system, I have installed LAMP server via TASKSEL. I now have no PHP support, and no postgresql support. Can someone help me?
[15:53] <idzied> thiebaude: Cheers for your positive energy ;D
[15:53] <maxfive5> :(
[15:53] <thiebaude> idzied:always
[15:53] <babolat> blue112, did u mean key*chain* or key*ring*
[15:53] <blue112> keychain
[15:54] <thiebaude> bbl after work
[15:54] <Vlet> AngryAnt: try: sudo fdisk -l
[15:54] <babolat> blue112, and what was the error prompt u got exactly?
[15:54] <Vlet> maxfive5: Don't ask to ask. Just ask :)
[15:54] <maxfive5> ok sorry
[15:54] <blue112> babolat: With the verbose option ?
[15:54] <Pici> bennyf11: Did you a2enmod php ? And then restart the apache daemon?
[15:54] <maxfive5> i've just install ubuntu 8.04 but i have a big problem...
[15:54] <arakthor> For files exectude with cron, does having #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh mess it up?
[15:54] <babolat> blue112, yes please.. paste it if u cud
[15:55] <blue112> Ok
[15:55] <blue112> !paste
[15:55] <bogey-> arakthor: the only problem is that with the gnome applet you cannot manually configure a wireless ip address and connect to a non encrypted network
[15:55] <maxfive5> internet is really slow
[15:55] <bennyf11> Pici: I have no idea. Im sort of new to this. All I have done is installed the LAMP server via TASKSEL
[15:55] <JusticeDude> Vlet: okay sorry, I'm a little lost.  I'm in the home folder but what am I looking for again >.<
[15:55] <idzied> thiebaud: Maybe I will risk myself, and get mad fixing a couple of days, or, just be surprised of the quality and stability of the Debianish OSs
[15:56] <Pici> bennyf11: run this: sudo a2enmod php5
[15:56] <Vlet> JusticeDude: there should be two folders: ".mozilla" and perhaps a ".firefox" - rename them to something like: ".mozilla-backup" and ".firefox-backup" then try starting up firefox again
[15:56] <bennyf11> Pici: done
[15:56] <blue112> babolat: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10936/
[15:56] <Pici> bennyf11: sudo invoke-rc.d apache2 restart
[15:56] <arakthor> bogey-: I don't have my laptop here, so I may be forgetting, but isn't there a way to manually configure your connection is you right click on the applet and select either 'edit wireless networks' or 'manually configure blah' ?
[15:57] <babolat> blue112, ok.. one moment
[15:57] <Vlet> Pici: not sure if you have any control over such things, but ubotu seems to be down
[15:57] <JusticeDude> Vlet: okay, that changed something.  I'm going to try the addons again
[15:57] <bennyf11> Pici: Great. Thats the PHP stuff sorted. Now i need to get postgresql sorted. When I install it i get some dependency errors. Can you help with that?
[15:57] <Pici> Vlet: Yes, it is, use ubottu instead
[15:57] <Lynet> !ubottu | Vlet
[15:58] <nishoe> /msg ubottu etiquette
[15:58] <Pici> bennyf11: What sort of errors?
[15:58] <Vlet> oh =D
[15:58] <Pici> bennyf11: Can you !pastebub them?
[15:58] <Pici> bennyf11: sorry, pastebin
[15:58] <bennyf11> !patsebin
[15:58] <Lynet> !paste
[15:58] <blue112> babolat: When I simply use ssh-agent and ssh-add, I have another error.
[15:58] <JusticeDude> Vlet: great, it worked.  Thanks a lot!
[15:58] <blue112> Connecting to dev... Connection closed
[15:59] <nishoe> /msg ubottu etiquette
[15:59] <babolat> blue112, i do not see the "Connection Closed" error u mentioned, nor anything that could help us go on.. what is that other error?
[15:59] <Pici> nishoe: you're putting an extra space for the / or your client doesnt support proper slash commands
[15:59] <rrittenhouse> Is there a way to restore (in hardy) my sources.list file back to defaults?
[15:59] <Vlet> JusticeDude: no problem - unless you had important bookmarks or something, you can just delete those directories you renamed now
[15:59] <blue112> babolat: I paste it.
[15:59] <nishoe> i am using pidgin
[16:00] <nishoe> Pici : and there is no space before the /
[16:00] <bennyf11> pici: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10938/
[16:00] <blue112> babolat: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10939/
[16:00] <Pici> bennyf11: Is this Hardy?
[16:00] <rrittenhouse> I'm getting this exact error: http://paste-it.net/public/n9275fd Any ideas?
[16:00] <babolat> blue112, reading
[16:00] <bennyf11> Pici: Yes
[16:00] <NetTroller> I made a ßöö ßöö..I was trying to install RutilT and the instructions said remove network manager then install RutilT ..but now network manager is gone ..I can't get-apt the RutilT ..how can I get network manager back? add/remove just hangs
[16:01] <blue112> babolat: It says "debug1: Authentication succeeded (publickey).", but it still doesn't work...
[16:01] <nishoe> can anyone help me with setting WINS under ubuntu 8.04?
[16:02] <Vlet> nishoe: specific questions are easier to answer in IRC
[16:02] <Pici> bennyf11: Does apt-get install postgresql-8.3   give you any more informative errors?
[16:02] <babolat> blue112, what exactly are u trying to access/do with this command?
[16:03] <xim> so my gui got fubarred, fortunatly a file manager window happened to be open and i could navigate to my irc client through /usr/bin  but all my bars are gone and i cant run any programs, how can I get them back, i just want them so i can try to upgrade to hardy and hopefully it will fix all this
[16:03] <rrittenhouse> Does anybody else in hardy (64bit) have a problem checking for updates with the update manager or even apt? http://paste-it.net/public/m6952cc/ Is my problem
[16:03] <blue112> babolat: I'm trying to upload file to the server, with sftp.
[16:03] <babolat> blue112, can u successfully ping that server?
[16:04] <nishoe> Vlet: I just want to enter a WINS address to my wireless network settings... under 'Manual Configuration' there is not option to set it up
[16:04] <bennyf11> Pici: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10942/
[16:04] <blue112> babolat: I think I can yes...
[16:04] <Vlet> xim: it probably won't. all those settings are kept in your /home/yourusername directory, and the upgrade won't over-write your settings.. how mad would you be if you had things set up all nice and the updater set everything to default :)
[16:04] <blue112> babolat: Yes, no problem.
[16:04] <babolat> blue112, meet me in #babolat
[16:04] <xim> vlet ok thats true, but still im dead in the water until I can get my menu bars back
[16:05] <blue112> Ok.
[16:05] <Jafet> xim, you mean your desktop menu got zorked?
[16:05] <Vlet> xim: (Pici, if might be good if you verify this...) if you do "rm -Rf ~/.gnome*" that should reset ALL your gnome settings...
[16:05] <xim> yes
[16:05] <xim> ok thats exactly what i wanna do thanks
[16:05] <klanicpesudy> xim
[16:06] <maxfive5> anyone have my same problem?
[16:06] <xim> yes?
[16:06] <Jafet> xim, right-click on your desktop panel and select "Add to panel..."
[16:06] <xim> there is no panel thats the problem
[16:06] <nishoe> So does anyone know where WINS could be entered while setting up a Network Connection?
[16:06] <Vlet> xim, wait... instead of deleting them, how about you do: mkdir gnomebackup && mv ~/.gnome* ./gnomebackup/
[16:06] <maxfive5> i've install ubuntu 8.04 but internet connection runs very slow
[16:07] <Jafet> Vlet, that sounds very desperate.
[16:07] <xim> compiz.real has been eating 100% of my processor recently, and i was jacking with it trying to and i killed it, then i tried to run it manually in a terminal which didnt work right, then i closed the terminal and haha just dont ever do that
[16:07] <Pici> bennyf11: Looks like theres a bug logged for that (bug 225125) the workaround is to: sudo chmod 740 /var/lib/postgresql/8.3/main/server.key   then sudo apt-get install -f
[16:07] <xim> k yeah ill back it up
[16:07] <xim> then what? just restart x?
[16:07] <mw-home> hi -- anyone in here having trouble with gmail?
[16:07] <francesco_> #ubuntu-it
[16:07] <doug_> ok i need help please i installed envy and all the graphics drivers for my nvidia card and it was working great till my system wanted to do an update and now its all messed up again and envy wont fix it.
[16:08] <Jafet> mw-home, yes, it scans my email and delivers nasty text ads.
[16:08] <xim> haha
[16:08] <mw-home> Jafet: haha.  no, right now, i'm not able to load my mail.
[16:08] <Vlet> Jafet: yeah... probably not my best idea all day :p
[16:08] <Jafet> mw-home, #firefox might help you.
[16:08] <doug_> anyone know how i can fix this ?
[16:09] <xim> what should i do after I kill my .gnome directory?  just restart?
[16:09] <babolat> doug_, try stepping back your updates, then install them one by one so that you could trace the cause
[16:09] <Jafet> xim, I don't think that's a good idea.
[16:09] <ct529> ikonia: hi there! I did it!
[16:09] <mikelake> anyone use intellij here? if so..do you run it using IDEA_JDK=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk
[16:09] <nishoe> no one with any clue as to where WINS could be entered in a network connection?
[16:09] <gnomefreak> mw-home: if you are using ubuntu packages please file a bug or see #ubuntu-mozillateam later today im off for a while and the rest of the team is away atm
[16:09] <Vikketorr> Know any good burning sofwore that handels .iso and .img ?
[16:10] <Jafet> xim, random guess, find a terminal and gksudo alacarte
[16:10] <doug_> babolat: im a noob so please can u walk me through it?
[16:10] <bennyf11> Pici: Now that I have installed it, I cannot update it via pgAdmin. Is there a default username/password assigned to the Postgresql service??
[16:10] <Jafet> xim, hmm, wait, might be the wrong application.
[16:10] <ct529> does anyone remeber how to activate the root user on ubuntu?
[16:10] <Flannel> ct529: You don't want to
[16:10] <Kakurady> Fontforge crashes more in Ubuntu than in Windows+Cygwin+Xming X server, mainly due to it unable to find bitmap glyphs of the right size in WenQuanYi ZenHei. What should I do?
[16:10] <ct529> I forgot again and cannot find on the wiki
[16:10] <babolat> doug_, one moment
[16:10] <ct529> Flannel: I actually want to
[16:11] <Flannel> ct529: Why?
[16:11] <Vlet> nishoe: sorry, had to afk... if you take a look at your /etc/samba/smb.conf file, the settings for it are in there
[16:11] <Pici> bennyf11: I dont know, I actually can't recall the last time I've even use pgsql
[16:11] <xim> jafet, yeah alacarte runs but it configures the menus, problem is they arent showing
[16:11] <Vikketorr> Know any good burning sofwore that handels .iso and .img ?
[16:11] <Jafet> xim, you can configure the menu but it doesn't show up?
[16:11] <nishoe> Vlet: so I have to install samba?
[16:11] <ct529> Flannel: because this sudo idea is rubbish, I have been administering linux machines for 5+ years
[16:11] <xim> yeah i have no panels
[16:11] <ct529> Flannel: and think &$%£%^^^ about this sudo thing (very insecure as well)
[16:11] <Flannel> ct529: How is sudo less secure than a root account?
[16:11] <bennyf11> ct529: dont you set the root password, then type su at command prompt
[16:11] <jevangelo> hey, is us.archive.ubuntu.com going slow for anyone?
[16:11] <xim> i really think killing my gnome directory is what i should do
[16:12] <Vlet> nishoe: I'm pretty sure you do
[16:12] <Flannel> ct529: I imagine you're just misunderstanding how sudo works
[16:12] <ct529> bennyf11: I do not remember actually ....
[16:12] <doug_> babolat: please no links the tech stuff goes over my head when i try to read them.
[16:12] <Vlet> jevangelo: for many it is
[16:12] <xim> assuming it rebuilds automatically that is
[16:12] <xim> i might end up just having to format linux
[16:12] <jevangelo> dude, its taking me so long to get java5-jdk
[16:12] <babolat> doug_, ok.. just he
[16:12] <ct529> bennyf11: thanks!
[16:12] <jevangelo> from the archives
[16:13] <Jafet> Now I realize there isn't a create panel option in the desktop context menu.
[16:13] <bennyf11> ct529: all good, glad i could help :)
[16:13] <nishoe> Vlet: thanks a lot... just wanted to know if there was a way to do it without installing anything... with a fresh install
[16:13] <Jafet> Is there one in Gusty or Hardy?
[16:13] <ct529> bennyf11: do you remeber how to authorise graphic log in from root?
[16:13] <Vikketorr> How do i burn .img files?
[16:13] <Jafet> xim, Vlet's option sounds a lot saner.
[16:13] <bennyf11> ct529: its under Login Window, in Administration
[16:14] <wamty> two machines running the same OS, aptitude dist-upgrade reports everything up to date, but there's 2 different versions of unison on them
[16:14] <_kevin_> if i went out and purchased a usb dvd burner, what would i need to do to make it work in ubuntu?
[16:14] <gordonjcp> Vikketorr: depends what they are, are they just .iso files?
[16:14] <Vlet> nishoe: well, it's a windows networking related thing... I think if you were to try to share a folder on a windows network, ubuntu would automatically install samba for you
[16:14] <bennyf11> ct529: under the security tab :)
[16:14] <Jafet> xim, as a last resort, I would create a brand new user account and move everything over.
[16:14] <gordonjcp> wamty: did you do "apt-get update" first on voth?
[16:14] <klanicpesudy> Is anyone chinese?
[16:14] <gordonjcp> both?
[16:14] <xim> its more than just the panels, everything in my gnome and compiz has been acting crazy recently, so yeah im just gonna blow it all away, and i have my home folder backed up on an external drive, so worst comes to worst ill just reformat with hardy from scratch
[16:14] <Vlet> jevangelo: you need to find a mirror
[16:14] <Flannel> ct529: Graphical login with root?  You've got to be kidding me.
[16:14] <wolfjb> how do I create a ufw rule to drop traffic from somewhere and not log it? (ie I'm on a windows network and don't want to fill up my logs with the broadcasted traffic)
[16:14] <blue112> Can someone help me with a sftp connection with pubkey auth, with ssh-agent ?
[16:14] <Vikketorr> no its a .img file
[16:14] <Vlet> !help > Vlet
[16:14] <Flannel> !cn | klanicpesudy
[16:15] <plik> there's someone whos been blagging the last 5 years
[16:15] <gordonjcp> Vikketorr: a .img file could be anything
[16:15] <nishoe> Vlet: Is that so? I am installing samba now.
[16:15] <doug_> babolat: can u meet me in room #wwed please so i wont miss what you say.
[16:15] <xim> ferret_ ! same ferret from shroomery?
[16:15] <Vikketorr> ok guess its a .iso
[16:15] <wamty> yea I did
[16:15] <wamty> yea I did
[16:15] <einPaule> _kevin_: If you know which DVD-drive you want to get look for it in combination with ubuntu or linux in google, you will probably find someone describing his experience/difficulties
[16:15] <bennyf11> Flannel: its a good thing to know... wouldnt do it all the time
[16:15] <Vlet> !repomirror | jevangelo
[16:16] <wolfjb> blue112: if you started ssh-agent then ran ssh-add, I believe sftp should be able to use that agent automatically, I know ssh and slogin do
[16:16] <ferret_> xim: no
[16:16] <xim> ah k
[16:16] <wamty> Any ideas please?
[16:16] <wamty> two machines running the same OS, aptitude dist-upgrade reports everything up to date, but there's 2 different versions of unison on them
[16:16] <wamty> apt-cache show on both machines reports: Version: 2.13.16-9
[16:16] <wamty> THIS machine shows the installed version as: unison version 2.27.57
[16:16] <bennyf11> Is there anyone who is able to assist with setup of postgresql server on pgAdmin
[16:17] <Flannel> bennyf11: No, it's a horrible, horrible thing.  Especially because it tells me that he hasn't really been adminnig boxes for 5 years, and probably doesn't understand the root/sudo thing; and is enabling root because he doesn't know what he's doing.
[16:17] <ct529> bennyf11: what is the problem?
[16:17] <wamty> What to do please?
[16:17] <ct529> bennyf11: with postgresql
[16:17] <wamty> any suggestions?
[16:17] <Vikketorr> guess its a .iso
[16:18] <bennyf11> ct529: im trying to login to the server using pgadmin, i dont know the details however. i dont think i specified them!
[16:18] <ct529> wamty: are you sure it has properly configured on both machines
[16:18] <plik> Flannel: I agree completely
[16:18] <wamty> although my cache shows: unison_2.27.57-1~hardy1_i386.deb
[16:18] <ct529> bennyf11: can you reconfigure the server
[16:19] <_DiMaN_> êóäà ÿ ïîïàë?
[16:19] <_DiMaN_> ñäåñü ðóññêèå åñòü?
[16:19] <wamty> SO????
[16:19] <bennyf11> ct529: thats it, i dont know how!! ive only been using ubuntu for about a week
[16:19] <amenado> bennyf11-> is that a new postgresql install? if it is, may as well reinstall adn set it up
[16:19] <Kingvin> HELP...how can i bridge my wireless card in VMware for UBUNTU 8.04....any ideas anyone?

[16:22] <ct529> bennyf11: have you tried?
[16:22] <amenado> spideyman-> then thats a different issue, you were describing the problem wrongly
[16:23] <Vlet> Is there a way to get a high and 'strange' resolution of 1680x1024 on a tty?
[16:23] <bennyf11> ct529: I cannot get it to work. do you have another way. i dont mind reinstalling :)
[16:23] <SliM1> please help me, i think i broke my ubuntu!!
[16:23] <jrr> fugitivo: i believe there's a new sound server
[16:23] <nishoe> Is there a way to decrease the area that causes vertical scroll on a touchpad?
[16:23] <Kingvin> amenado....i have XP in the vmware...evrything works perfect except its not picking up my wireless card
[16:23] <Vlet> SliM1: why do you think this?
[16:23] <Danish989> hi all
[16:23] <hic> il-2 in wine doesnt recognize joystick F-23, in calibration utility out of wine it works!
[16:23] <SliM1> and reinstalling is not a very pleasent option, since my bios is broken
[16:24] <amenado> Kingvin-> your guest is XP ? and host is ubuntu?
[16:24] <ct529> bennyf11: reinstalling could be a good idea if you messed up config what is the version
[16:24] <schitzo> hello
[16:24] <Danish989> I'm having mount errors while booting Hardy Heron, and it keeps dropping me into BusyBox (the built in shell) .. can anyone help?
[16:24] <Kingvin> amenado...yh
[16:24] <Vlet> SliM1: it's broken?
[16:24] <bennyf11> ct529, how do i do that?? i have tried doing in in synaptic and using apt-get, but i still cant get it to work
[16:24] <schitzo> no
[16:24] <amenado> Kingvin-> what exactly do you meant by bridging vmware with wireless? can you clarify, as this statement does not make sense
[16:24] <SliM1> Vlet: well, it's quite simple: a failed upgrade
[16:25] <SliM1> Vlet: yes, it's broken :))
[16:25] <Vlet> SliM1: and why can't you reinstall?
[16:25] <Danish989> I'm having mount errors while booting Hardy Heron, and it keeps dropping me into BusyBox (the built in shell) .. can anyone help?
[16:25] <dbz> hello, I'm looking to turn an old x86 sony 505TS into an internet appliance.  Can someone tell me if there is a version of ubuntu suited for this?
[16:25] <SliM1> Vlet: because i can't boot from a cd
[16:25] <hic> experienced with il-2 in wine?
[16:26] <Kingvin> amenado...ok forget that....how can i make the wireless work in XP
[16:26] <Vlet> SliM1: Well, what happens when you boot up?
[16:26] <Danish989> is there a seperate Wubi channel?
[16:26] <mono> hic: you mean hl2?
[16:26] <iceman84x> #ubuntu-it
[16:26] <amenado> Kingvin-> you are in ubuntu channel this is not xp support channel
[16:26] <Pici> hic: check the !appdb or ask in #winehq
[16:26] <ct529> bennyf11: have you tried dpkg-reconfigure postgresql?
[16:26] <Paulie_> umm how can i create a launcher to a java application ?
[16:27] <bennyf11> ct529: yes i have, but i get no prompts, no nothing
[16:27] <Danish989> I'm having mount errors while booting Hardy Heron, and it keeps dropping me into BusyBox (the built in shell) .. can anyone help?
[16:27] <hic> >mono no, il-2 sturmovik - the game
[16:27] <Paulie_> the normal way doesen't work :(
[16:27] <SliM1> Vlet: well, GDM starts pretty nicely, but when i log in an X session, compiz is broken, nautilus won't work for more than a fraction of a second, my icons on the desktop are nowhere to be found, etc.
[16:27] <Kingvin> amenado.....i kno this....do you use VMware?
[16:27] <amenado> Paulie_-> can you run the app from a terminal? what is the commadn you used to run it?
[16:27] <amenado> Kingvin-> yes, i have used vmware
[16:27] <charles|64> ok I need help my wireless only works with encryption off or on wpa personal not wpa2
[16:27] <ct529> bennyf11: could you please wait a sec I have a problem with a virtual machine, come back soon
[16:28] <evand> Danish989: Please try running chkdsk in Windows (start -> run -> cmd -> chkdsk /F /R -> reboot into Windows twice, then boot back into Ubuntu)
[16:28] <Danish989> Evand: I've already tried that
[16:28] <bpat1434> HOw difficult would it be to convert a kdm theme to a gdm theme?  e.g. http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Liquid_Splash?content=71635 to a gdm theme?
[16:28] <Paulie_> amenado: i cant run it in a terminal unless i right-click it and choose run in terminal
[16:28] <Danish989> evand: I have an error log and a complete problem description at the ubuntu forums, do you mind looking at my thread? its right here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4910744
[16:28] <SliM1> Vlet: that's pretty much enough to get me depressed, but there probably is more, but i didn't have the patience to find out what all of the other problems are
[16:29] <charles|64> ok I need help my wireless only works with encryption off or on wpa personal not wpa2
[16:29] <amenado> Paulie_-> why can you not run this app from a terminal? did you create the program your self?
[16:29] <evand> Danish989: Agostino has already replied.
[16:29] <Paulie_> no
[16:29] <bennyf11> ct529: thanks fro your help
[16:29] <charles|64> and with the WPA on it only works on my work laptop witch iw windows
[16:29] <Paulie_> amenado: the program's name is Hattrick Organizer
[16:29] <Danish989> evand: Yeah, but can you look at the problem from your perspective and give me some answers at the moment please?
[16:29] <bennyf11> Is there anyone else who can assist with reinstalling a postgresql server
[16:29] <Vlet> SliM1: Well, perhaps you could hit ctrl-alt-f1 and log in, then do: "sudo useradd test" to make a new user. then hit ctrl-alt-f7 to go back to the gui and log in as that user to see if it's maybe just your accounts settings that are screwed uo
[16:30] <babo_> I use ffmpeg to convert my 350MB 4min screencast to flv, but the flv video comes out as really poor quality. I'm using q=31 ...
[16:30] <amenado> Paulie_-> where is this located? ie the full path of Hattrick Organizer?
[16:30] <babo_> the screencast is in avi
[16:30] <evand> Danish989: we need more information from you, which is exactly what Ago requested.  If you are looking for an alternative to what he requested, try booting into recovery mode, that should print any errors to the screen.
[16:30] <lusius> hi :/ i get problem "fopen(0) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied" when my php scripts tries to create a file, how can i chown the file to be allowed to create files?
[16:30] <SliM1> Vlet: ok, i'll try that. any way to upgrade from the command line?
[16:30] <ct529> bennyf11: what version of ubuntu are you using
[16:30] <evand> Danish989: err rather, we need more information from your system
[16:30] <Danish989> evand: so do you want the complete boot log?
[16:30] <SliM1> upgrade as in upgrade to hardy
[16:31] <Paulie_> amenado: /host/paul/HO/HO.sh
[16:31] <amenado> Kingvin-> to help you understand a little bit, maybe you need to do some tutorial on how vmware works
[16:31] <evand> Danish989: that would help, but please follow up in ubuntuforums.
[16:31] <babo_> oh, and the sound doesn't come out right.
[16:31] <sivel> In Gnome when I do a "clean up by name" on the desktop the Trash Icon does not stay on the left with "Computer, Home, etc..." is there anyway to change this behavior
[16:31] <Danish989> evand: how do I print out the boot log in the ubuntu forums?
[16:31] <sivel> I assume it is because Gnome doesn't see the "Trash" as a folder
[16:31] <Amaranth> lusius: the user the script (or apache) is running as has to have write access to the directory you're trying to put files in
[16:31] <amenado> Paulie_-> so its a script calling a java program right? you can see whats inside Ho.sh if you like to confirm..
[16:32] <Vlet> lusius: the www-data user needs to have write access to the directory in question
[16:32] <SliM1> Vlet: and what will the password be for that user
[16:32] <SliM1> ?
[16:32] <svein-bein> got a flickering screen, maybe more like latency with my new 8800gtx card.. anyone got this card working stable in 8.04?
[16:32] <thingfish> I'm trying to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg on hardy.  When I do, it totally skips the video configuation part, and jumps straight to keyboard.  How do I force it to start at the beginning?
[16:32] <lusius> Vlet, ouch, isn't that a vuln?
[16:32] <Vlet> SliM1: make one up!
[16:32] <Danish989> evand: not print out, sorry, I mean how do I copy the whole boot log over there?
[16:32] <spideyman> my gui login screen is looping back to itself kubuntu 7.10
[16:32] <evand> Danish989: I don't follow.  When you boot in recovery mode (hit escape at grub and select the second option), it should eventually error out, printing the failure message to the screen.  You can either record that and type it into a new post or take a picture of it and attach it to the thread.
[16:33] <dssd> hi,can someone tell,  if "mv" move File checks, if the file is really the same, what is the cp command used to copy, before the stuff is deleted ?
[16:33] <SliM1> Vlet: and, doesn't gnome-terminal work just as well as alt+ctrl+f1?
[16:33] <Vlet> lusius: well, the user/group that the script is running as is www-data, so that user needs to somehow be allowed to write to the disk
[16:33] <chelz> ok i'm very lost, i've removed users from their own groups (eg user1 is no longer in group user1) yet newly created files are still under user1 group, how do i make newly created files to be owned by the users' default group?
[16:33] <ct529> bennyf11: try psql -v, it should give you the version if I remeber well
[16:33] <Danish989> evand: that's what I was asking, sorry if I didn't make any sense. Thank you :)
[16:33] <Vlet> SliM1: sure
[16:33] <evand> Danish989: no worries and you're welcome.  Best of luck!
[16:33] <Danish989> evand: thank you!
[16:33] <SliM1> Vlet: how do i add a password to a user?
[16:34] <sivel> SliM1: sudo passwd [username]
[16:34] <Vlet> SliM1: it should ask you for one
[16:34] <Kingvin> amenado: ....thanx....but Bridge is a common term used in VMware
[16:34] <lusius> Vlet, i tried to run mozilla as root and executed the script, that is written by root, same problem
[16:35] <Paulie_> amenado: yes
[16:35] <amenado> Kingvin yes it is, but you need to understand what it meant
[16:35] <Pici> lusius: Mozilla is not running the script, your webserver is
[16:35] <SliM1> Vlet: it does, brb
[16:35]  * ct529 ping bennyf11
[16:35] <bennyf11> ct529: i get invalid syntax
[16:36] <SliM1> Vlet: what's the command for user switching? (the software "Quit" button never worked for my gutsy)
[16:36] <lusius> Pici,  xD shees i forgot., ssc
[16:36] <odinsbane> What is a good JVM to install.
[16:36] <jevangelo> the java5-jdk package
[16:36] <ct529> bennyf11: psql --version or --help I do not remember
[16:37] <ct529> bennyf11: as soon as I finshed this installtion I reinstall psql and give you a proper answer :D
[16:37] <Vlet> lusius: no, that won't work. it's not WHO is viewing the page that matters - when a request comes in to the web server for that script, apache will launch the php executable and have it parse that script. apache runs as the www-data user, therefore if you want your script to make or write to a file, www-data user or group needs to have permission to do so.
[16:37] <bennyf11> ct529: i have the version, i just cannot connect
[16:37] <amenado> Paulie_-> can you not open a terminal? and then  /pathto/HO/Ho.sh  ?
[16:37] <Vlet> SliM1: just hit ctrl-alt-backspace
[16:37] <thingfish> I just finished installing hardy.  Got all updates.  Installed the restricted nvidia drivers provided by ubuntu.  Desktop effects are working, however I am limited to resolution of 640x480 on a 19" monitor.  Dpkg-reconfigure skips video configuration and goes right to the keyboard part.  What can I do?
[16:38] <ct529> bennyf11: what version is it
[16:38] <SliM1> Vlet: fine
[16:38] <ct529> bennyf11: is the psql server running
[16:38] <amenado> thingfish-> you can edit the xorg.conf file manually and see if any resolution you can add to the selections
[16:38] <spideyman> thingfish Dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[16:39] <[T]an2> I am having issues getting some packages updated... can anyone assist me? This is what I have tried to do so far to resolve it and the output i got: http://pastebin.com/d7ba2b393
[16:39] <thingfish> spideyman: Like I said above, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg skips video configuration.
[16:39] <o88o> in 8.04 i cant go more than 1024*768 in screen resolution ??? i have nvidia geforce 256m and Samsung17"
[16:39] <bennyf11> ct529: i really dont know. Im really new to this :)
[16:39] <thingfish> nvidia-settings is unusable
[16:40] <Vlet> [T]an2: you need to use sudo to do that... for example: sudo apt-get install somepackage
[16:40] <[T]an2> even if i am logged in as super user?
[16:41] <SliM1> Vlet: well, it's fully broken
[16:41] <ct529> bennyf11: write this command in a konsole window > ps -qf | grep -i post
[16:41] <Mateo> Hello all

[16:41] <Trae> is Ubuntu 8.04 considered stable?  I don't seem to find it as such.
[16:42] <Trae> Should I install 7.10?
[16:42] <[T]an2> tried... that was the first attempt on line one
[16:42] <ct529> bennyf11: and show me the ouptut
[16:42] <void^> [T]an2: no, it wasn't.
[16:42] <xim> !upgrades > xim
[16:42] <bennyf11> ct529: i get unsupported sysv option
[16:42] <iarwain1> #ubuntu rocks \o/
[16:42] <ct529> bennyf11: I am rebooting see you in a few seconds
[16:42] <bennyf11> kk
[16:43] <SliM1> Trae: 7.10 works well, but 8.04 is a lot nicer, i wouldn't mind a slight instability
[16:43] <[T]an2> void^:: http://pastebin.com/d484498fd
[16:43] <Vlet> SliM1: well, I think you should prioritize getting your system to boot off a CD. Asking how to fix a "broken" install on irc is kind of like asking a mechanic for an estimate on a "crashed" car.
[16:43] <thingfish> so, how can I force dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to start at the beginning, where the video configuration part is?
[16:43] <SliM1> Vlet: well, how can i upgrade using the terminal
[16:44] <SliM1> ?
[16:44] <Trae> SliM1, when you are trying to get work done.. instability !=good;
[16:44] <odinsbane> I installed jdk6 and I still can't use sun.misc.BASE64Decoder()
[16:44] <Vlet> SliM1: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:44] <odinsbane> any suggestions?
[16:44] <SliM1> Trae: then 7.10 would be suited for you for another month or two
[16:44] <communit1> good day community
[16:44] <amenado> odinsbane-> is it in your CLASSPATH?
[16:45] <void^> [T]an2: libmjpegtools0c2a is a different package.
[16:45] <SliM1> ah, dist-upgrade, thanks
[16:45] <Trae> SliM1, heh... yeah, I'm going to punish myself and try and install 8.04 again :(
[16:45] <Trae> SliM1, in hopes the little green goblins smile on me today.
[16:45] <odinsbane> amenado I haven't added anything to my class path.
[16:46] <[T]an2> void^: right... i need to fix all of this...
[16:46] <thingfish> this is pretty much unacceptable, given my display worked great in gutsy
[16:46] <amenado> odinsbane-> well you know, to find the libraries it must be in the CLASSPATH so look into it
[16:46] <juanferdoska> hi all, i was following this tutorial: http://ph.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?s=49ae9afe680beaf4d543b1bc12bb01a5&t=769990 to get my presario's wifi working, but still NOT working, tried ndiswrapper, fwcutter, and wpacompilant... nothing
[16:46] <o88o> which driver i have use with NVIDIA Geforce fx5500 ???
[16:46] <Sergeant_Pony> is there a way to completely flush out wifi settings and have it scan for wifi and start over?
[16:46] <SliM1> Vlet: well, it's checking for hardy repositories, though there is barely any hardy in my ubuntu yet, so it's worse than i thought :)); Thanks

[16:47] <no7up4u2> sup all
[16:47] <xatr0z> ANAAL!!!!
[16:48] <pen> why I installed wine and have the .menu in /etc/xdg/menus it still is not displayed in the menu?
[16:48] <no7up4u2> xatr0z, 2 words.. seek help
[16:48] <sharperguy> !bug
[16:49] <Belisarivs> Hi all
[16:49] <SliM1> Trae: there is a slight instability in upgrading from gutsy to hardy, i'm facing it's consequences, so keep that in mind :P
[16:49] <juanferdoska> hi all, i was following this tutorial: http://ph.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?s=49ae9afe680beaf4d543b1bc12bb01a5&t=769990 to get my presario's wifi working, but still NOT working, tried ndiswrapper, fwcutter, and wpacompilant... nothing

[16:49] <XDS2010> My question
[16:49] <XDS2010> http://mibbit.com/pb/cODN8f
[16:49] <Belisarivs> Just wanted to ask how can I put in my feature request.
[16:49] <thingfish> is there a way to force redection of video hardware?
[16:49] <odinsbane> amenado I'm not sure what libraries I should be looking for?
[16:49] <XDS2010> I know its a bit OT , just throwin it out there
[16:49] <Trae> SliM1, yeah I was runnijng 7.04 and just backuped my files and nuked and installed clean the first time (yesterday)
[16:49] <WoDaN> I got my X not working anymore, after a package install that stopped working due to / filling up (not sure if it's related), X considers all fontdirs as 'bad' and therefor doesn't find the 'fixed' font and thus no go.  I've reinstalled the xfonts* packages already, as well as xserver-xorg-core and friends, but still no go, strace/ltrace do not show me anything as to why the fontdirs are discarted (they exist, have fonts in them and have the fonts.dir/font
[16:49] <thingfish> *redetection
[16:49] <pen> why I installed wine and have the .menu in /etc/xdg/menus it still is not displayed in the menu?
[16:50] <void^> [T]an2: perhaps we should figure out which of the 2 libmjpegtools packages has to die. where do libmjpegtools0, lives, mjpegtools and transcode come from? seems to be some 3rd party repo.
[16:50] <amenado> I dont understand why people prefer to do an upgrade instead of a fresh install of hardy...
[16:50] <Sergeant_Pony> is there a way to completely flush out wifi settings and have it scan for wifi and start over. My home wifi network stopped working a few day's ago....
[16:50] <Trae> SliM1, had some X and mouse issues and nuked it and tried Fedora.  heh I'm running back to Ubuntu.
[16:50] <o88o> thanks everybody :)
[16:50] <babolat> amenado, convenience.. supposed convenience
[16:50] <Belisarivs> I reported several bugs in Launchpad, but don'y know how to put in Feature Requests.
[16:50] <amenado> odinsbane-> your error or exception  should tell you
[16:50] <Trae> SliM1, that's not a slam on FC, i'ts just I've used Ubuntu for so long it's what I'm used to
[16:50] <Belisarivs> Any ideas?
[16:50] <t1n0m3n> I am trying to access my music share (running on XP) from Ubuntu 8.04.  My url in Nautilus is "smb://xp-machine/music$"  When I try to access this, I get "The folder contents could not be displayed.  Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "music$ on xp-machine": Invalid argument"  I can access this folder is I remove all but 34 folders.  If I select some random folder and increase the number of folders to 35, I always get this message.  I have tried
[16:50] <Vlet> XDS2010: probably not the right channel for this question
[16:50] <amenado> babolat thats not convenience when far too many faults during upgrade
[16:50] <Trae> SliM1, I was really upset with display problems the first time around though.  I hope that was just a fluke.
[16:51] <Pici> Belisarivs: They're logged in the same manner as a bug
[16:51] <Trae> anyhoo afk
[16:51] <odinsbane> sun.misc.BASE64Decoder() so that should lead me to a jar file or directory?
[16:51] <babolat> amenado, yes, that's why i added supposed.. coz it's supposed to be more convenient when u have to migrate data and configurations
[16:51] <SliM1> Trae: ATI?
[16:51] <Belisarivs> Pici - but to do it, I must fill in name of package, mustn't I?
[16:51] <babolat> !ot | babolat amenado
[16:52] <amenado> babolat i agree, i tend to suggest people use a separate /home when installing
[16:52] <pen> anyone here know how to fix the menu not showing problem?
[16:52] <Pici> Belisarivs: Yes, if you have more questions about the bug/feature submission process, best to ask in #ubuntu-bugs
[16:52] <babolat> amenado, couldn't agree more
[16:52] <amenado> odinsbane-> is that where you are having exceptions?
[16:53] <odinsbane> Yes
[16:53] <CapaH> Has anyone here got the new Compiz "Sphere" working?
[16:53] <amenado> !who | odinsbane
[16:53] <pen> no one here knows xdg?
[16:53] <babo_> how come ffmpeg ignores my size setting ? ffmpeg -i file.avi -s 300X400 file.flv
[16:53] <babo_> ?
[16:53] <Belisarivs> Pici- Thanks
[16:53] <SliM1> what is xdg?
[16:54] <pen> xdg menus
[16:54] <SliM1> babo_: #ffmpeg
[16:54] <odinsbane> amenado Yes that is where it dies, somebody suggested that sun.misc libraries are virtual machin specific.  But that doesn't seem to help me.
[16:54] <SliM1> pen it doesn't ring any bells
[16:54] <pen> SliM1, what do you mean? try go to /etc/xdg/menus
[16:55] <pen> SliM1, do you know how to fix the menu not showing problem?
[16:55] <Jimmybondi> hi all - have a problem: using an acer laptop with installed instant-on arcade - now want to add a divx codec but get access to that partition
[16:55] <amenado> odinsbane-> now go see if the package for  sun.misc  exist or in your CLASSPATH
[16:55] <SliM1> pen: i'll do that as soon as i get my system fixed, nautilus isn't working anymore for me
[16:55] <pen> SliM1, oh
[16:55] <odinsbane> my CLASSPATH is empty and if I locate sun | grep misc  I get nothing.
[16:56] <odinsbane> amenado ^^
[16:56] <pen> anyone here know why reinstall apps the menu entry would just disappear?
[16:56] <SliM1> pen: and belive me, upgrading to hardy with a dial-up connection isn't pleasent at all
[16:56] <pen> SliM1, that's true
[16:56] <pen> SliM1, get a better connection
[16:56] <amenado> odinsbane-> then you need to go back and re-learn java. you know how critical classpath is..if its not on the path, it will never be seen
[16:57] <SliM1> pen: this is temporary, i had a cable connection which worked pretty well
[16:57] <pen> SliM1, hm
[16:57] <SliM1> pen: but this is already off-topic, sorry :)
[16:57] <bpat1434> anyone ran into the issue of the mouse cursor disappearing after screensaver or screeen sleep on a laptop?

[16:57] <google-bot> Its not Ubuntu!!
[16:57] <Trae> do I REALLY need all this session startup stuff?
[16:58] <Trae> it's like someone added 100 things on a windows desktop install
[16:58] <mistiipu_> i think i need tc command. i read the man. but it gave me headaches.         i need eth1+eth2=20k/s dl limit and 4k upload    but they should have priority to any other band consumption e.g work on server itself or any other eth.   and i dont want any eth user to consume all the trafic (while both eth1 and eth2 are online) and drain bandwidth from the other. any help?
[16:58] <W5CT> is there an easy way to revert back to ff2?
[16:58] <W5CT> ff3 is making me crazy
[16:58] <Trae> W5CT, good question.
[16:58] <Pici> Trae: You need to be specific
[16:58] <Trae> Pici, the gnome session stuff... ther'es a dozen things listed in there.
[16:58] <Trae> Pici, by default.
[16:58] <odinsbane> amenado I am trying to learn Java, I understand that I need a class path, I assume I can use the -cp 'nescessary classpath' but...I dont knwo what class will include sun.misc if any.
[16:59] <Zorlin> W5: isn't there an ff2 rpm?
[16:59] <tyco> kampung
[16:59] <Trae> W5CT, if you find out please let me know
[16:59] <W5CT> Zorlin:  what is this rpm thing you speak of?
[16:59] <Zorlin> imo just alien it
[16:59] <CShadowRun> Can anyone tell me how to fix firefox's flash players sound? the whole OSS thing is really starting to annoy me.
[16:59] <Zorlin> a .rpm package
[16:59] <amenado> odinsbane-> since you are in the learning process of java, perhaps #java channel is more appropiate rather than ubuntu
[16:59] <CShadowRun> Why the OSS server doesn't support multiple inputs is beyond me...
[16:59] <google-bot> CShadowRun: isnt' there any #firefox channel ?? !!
[16:59] <W5CT> if debian supports ff2 yet, maybe i will grab a deb
[17:00] <Pici> Trae: Some of them are needed, others not so much.  If you're looking for a lightweight desktop environment, then gnome isnt the way to go
[17:00] <Zorlin> well
[17:00] <amenado> odinsbane-> may i suggest the undernet #java folks, freenode java folks are brutal to newbies
[17:00] <CShadowRun> google-bot this is an OS problem, not a firefox problem.
[17:00] <nigma> hi all... is it possible that stdio.h is no found? O_O
[17:00] <CShadowRun> It's to do with OSS and ALSA conflicting.
[17:00] <Zorlin> alien converts rpm to deb
[17:00] <Pici> Zorlin: Ubuntu does not use rpm packages.
[17:00] <jdwatson> Can anybody recommend a better IRC client than Pidgin?

[17:01] <amenado> google-bot-> you have used google correct?
[17:01] <W5CT> Pici:  i love you, and i want to have your love children
[17:01] <jdwatson> ubottu I didn't ask for the "best" one, I asked for recommendations for one better than Pidgin. If you're gonna spew boilerplate at me, at least get the right boilerplate
[17:01] <x1250> google-bot: $ sudo aptitude install apache2, and search the other packages YOURSELF.

[17:09] <pen> why I installed wine and have the .menu in /etc/xdg/menus it still is not displayed in the menu?
[17:09] <amenado> mistiipu_-> because firestarter attempts to put rules to block traffic, so you need to learn how the rules works to allow it to get through
[17:09] <Zorlin> weird *
 is it no longer used?
