[12:06] <bobby> what is the package name of the propretary flash player in ubuntu?
[12:06] <hmhowie> Balsus-Legdre: usually ctrl+C will kill the current process
[12:06] <MeRodent> Balsus-Legdre, try CTRL+C or CTRL+Z

[12:11] <Jimmey> mc44, I have that too, but the man file wasn't very helpful
[12:12] <negnin> pvl1: there are packages for it though
[12:12] <mc44> Jimmey: it has a gui, you're not using that?
[12:12] <stefg> steel_lady: everything looks normal so far. I have two ideas: 1.) vfat isn't a very stable filesystem, so if you can I would do a complete backup, reformat the external drive and restore. 2.) it can be a flaky USB connector, this would explain why it gets mouted twice. if it has loose contacts it gets very confused by being mounted/unmounted in such a rapid speed
[12:12] <Jimmey> mc44, ahh, I do. It doesn't seem to support mp3s though

[12:30] <swiftnomad> Hello. How do I update thunderbird from 1.5 to 2.X
[12:30] <salah> Hello. My machine is suddenly turning it self off. I know this problem has to be with Linux. When the machine turns it self off, I see something like speedstep for centrino. Any idea how to fix this problem?
[12:30] <salah> swiftnomad, sudo apt-get update
[12:30] <streetbmx> salah, get a new computer
[12:30] <negnin> Shapeshifter: change the convert and ls command according to your wishes
[12:30] <s3nz0r> nooo
[12:30] <swiftnomad> doesn't show any updates for it
[12:30] <stefg> salah: overheating beacuse acpi is not working properly, i assiume
[12:31] <Pelo> salah, speedstep is a cpufreq modulator for some  chips,  do you have that installed ,a re you using a laptop ?
[12:31] <salah> stefg, yes, the computer is VERY hot. any idea how to deal with this?
[12:31] <swiftnomad> let me restart salah
[12:31] <salah> Pelo, yes, a Acer Aspire 5040
[12:31] <ZmaX> stefg, do I have to do some king of defrag?
[12:32] <stefg> salah: so it's acpi trouble... you'll have to do some research on google for your hardware and known issues with it
[12:32] <Pelo> salah, I'M not all that knowledgable about this,  I would look into hibernation/suspend stuff , ifyou have it setup, that's all I can think about
[12:32] <stefg> ZmaX: linux filesystems don't need defrag
[12:32] <spyteman> could someone do me a huuuuuuuuuuge favour and archive everything that has to do with LIRC from an untouched ubuntu install? untouched as in not messed with infrared/lirc stuff?
[12:32] <bobby> mc44: still having problems installing that
[12:32] <mc44> bobby: what problems?
[12:32] <spyteman> i need to come back to original ubuntu configuration :(
[12:33] <Pelo> spyteman,  did you try deleting the ~/.lirc folder if there is one
[12:33] <spyteman> oh
[12:33] <salah> stefg, alright.. this is the most annoyning I ever had.. today, I was presenting my big project for the whole gathering, and suddenly I get an error... and my presentation was about why linux is better than windows
[12:33] <spyteman> nah theres none in my home dir
[12:33] <spyteman> Pelo are you experienced with lirc?
[12:34] <bobby> mc44: synaptic shows its installed but detais show me that mismatch in checksum + no install adobe site shows me that v<IP_ADDRESS>.0 is installed
[12:34] <Pelo> spyteman, no , just running throught the basics,  you can also try  going into synptic and doing a complete uninstall
[12:34] <mc44> bobby: did you enable backports?
[12:34] <ompaul> spyteman, sudo apt-get remove --purge lirc (and other package names) that --purge kills off or reports config files
[12:34] <Steve^> How do I get out of a full screen remote desktop?
[12:34] <ompaul> spyteman, then with all removed start again
[12:34] <spyteman> ok thanks
[12:35] <bobby> mc44: yeah it says that 9. something is installed
[12:35] <frostburn> spyteman, your lirc break too?

[12:35] <spyteman> but i messed with lirc myself and now it's broken
[12:35] <mc44> bobby: in firefox do "about:plugins" what does that say?
[12:36] <frostburn> spyteman, if you get it running again, let me know
[12:36] <frostburn> spyteman, i have a similar problem
[12:36] <GIn> can wget opens more than 1 connection to download a file?
[12:36] <spyteman> ok frostburn
[12:36] <Jimmey> spyteman, can't you just delete the configuration files, and un/re-install?
[12:36] <spyteman> well where are all the config files?

[12:37] <salah> is there no way to remove a package without removing ubuntu-desktop?
[12:37] <robdeman> hello all, can anybody help me out with this error?? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37744/
[12:37] <spyteman> Jimmey i tried from terminal, .l + TAB gives me nothing
[12:37] <frostburn> Jimmey, but the vanilla install worked flawlessly, i believe the question is getting it back to a default working state
[12:37] <vas> where should I start with an idea like this, what programming lanauge, I have experience with programming already
[12:37] <negnin> GIn: you can use stuff like {1,2} in an URL to get both files after eachother
[12:37] <Pelo> salah,  ubuntu-desktop is just a meta package you can remove it with no worries
[12:37] <spyteman> how do i search my filesystem for files/directories named lirc?
[12:37] <Jimmey> spyteman, sudo apt-get purge lirc un-installs it and deletes config files.
[12:37] <Jimmey> Can't be sure though
[12:38] <Jimmey> I think
[12:38] <GIn> I mean to open like 10 connections to download a single file
[12:38] <frostburn> spyteman, $locate lirc
[12:38] <salah> Pelo, last time it removed every other packages in my computer too...
[12:38] <vas> anyone?
[12:38] <swiftnomad> hello channel!
[12:38] <spyteman> hmm
[12:38] <frostburn> vas, you might want to ask #ubuntu-devel
[12:38] <Pelo> salah, it should not have done that , unless you removed with aptitide and used some odd option

[12:40] <spyteman> please :)
[12:41] <Pelo> swiftnomad,  you would need to install the .2.x one if you have no updates for it in the repos, go to the thunderbird site and look for a deb file,  or the source
[12:41] <stefg> swiftnomad: sudo apt-get upgrade that is
[12:41] <Taffy-nay> it's a real time lan monitor that will alert you audibly when events happen on your network, such as, new IP addresses being assigned....you see where I'm going with this? :P
[12:41] <Pelo> patrlck, right click  unlock  , then right lick move

[12:43] <vancomycin> Pelo, it never appeared again, ubuntu just hung when i was running a test on xserver-xorg-  i didn't change anything just clicked test,. it happened once
[12:43] <patrlck> Pelo, how do I readd the application/places/system icons ?
[12:43] <Pelo> spyteman, liblircclient0 that is the only one I see installed
[12:43] <vancomycin> negnin, what does that do ?
[12:43] <negnin> spyteman: you can remove lirc and then use deborphan to remove unused libs etc if you're concerned about that
[12:43] <spyteman> deborphan?
[12:44] <mc44> bobby: try "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree" then "apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" (close synaptic)
[12:44] <Shapeshifter> @ imagemagick conversions: I did as you said and wrote a for-thingy according to the tutorial and it works like a charm. I have another question: I don't quite understand the difference between "-resize", "-resample" "-size" "-adaptive-resize" and all those other possibilities. I'd like to have smaller high-quality version of the original image.
[12:44] <patrlck> Pelo, nevermind, it looks like using the 'move' option worked
[12:44] <patrlck> thanks
[12:44] <spyteman> thanks Pelo
[12:44] <Pelo> vancomycin,  then assume that the prolblem got fixed and avoid  nasty turnoff in the future
[12:44] <vancomycin> negnin, : nvm he system utility fsck (for "file system check"
[12:44] <bobby> since it uses 3d party installer that seems to download and install suff
[12:44] <negnin> Shapeshifter: use -size 1000x1000 -resize 1000x1000 it gives better results
[12:44] <vancomycin> can i just run "fsck" in terminal?
[12:44] <bobby> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[12:44] <bobby> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[12:45] <Shapeshifter> negnin: Why both?
[12:45] <bobby> mc44: for you
[12:45] <hugo_> hi there
[12:45] <mc44> bobby: when does that happen?
[12:46] <xhaju> hi everybody
[12:46] <rt56> hi xhaju

[12:46] <ubotu> You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[12:47] <frostburn> spyteman, it looks like it doesn't run as a daemon, i'm not sure how it's configured
[12:47] <Taffy-nay> Pelo: did you see my description?
[12:47] <vancomycin> Pelo, negnin : can i just run "fsck" in terminal just to be on the safe side? this is day2 of using ubuntu for me - running on a dual boot. if yes, do i need any other parameters with this command? i understand it runs on boot - so if i have a dual boot, do ii just select the first generic option?
[12:47] <bobby> mc44: well just before it drops back to the promt when installing it
[12:47] <spyteman> did you sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart frostburn?
[12:48] <mc44> bobby: sounds like the download corrupted or the version on their server is busted
[12:48] <frostburn> spyteman, lirc was never in my vanilla install, but remote worked regardless
[12:48] <mc44> bobby: is it redownloading it each time or using a cached copy?
[12:48] <Pelo> Taffy-nay, I just went back and read it,   try wireshark  I think that sounds like what you want but I'm not up on this network stuff
[12:49] <Pelo> vancomycin, yes you can run fsck have fun with it ,don'T expect me to tell you what the result mean
[12:49] <spyteman> hm ok
[12:49] <bobby> mc44: yeah i guess they had a minor version update but since the package to download is _9_linux.tar.gz
[12:49] <bobby> mc44: looks like its downloading it everytime
[12:49] <Xenguy> vancomycin: I believe that fsck is not supposed to be run on mounted volumes IIRC
[12:49] <vancomycin> Pelo, i am looking it up on the forums - just learning man... thanks
[12:49] <ironfroggy> i followed the link i was given on passwordless ssh login, but its the same i already have done and i still cant get in without a prompt. any other ideas?
[12:50] <mc44> bobby: you could try grabbing the feisty deb and seeing if that works
[12:50] <vancomycin> Xenguy, yeah i saw some people used fsck the wrong way - and some bad things happened

[12:54] <cocox> hi there, i have an issue with my soundcard... i have been reading in the forums and found that maybe is because Ubuntu Festy realize about my two soundcars... one is VIA which is integrated in my motherboard and the other is Audigy Creative, the one i want to use. After using the alsamixer command i realize that ubuntu is using the VIA soundcard instead the Audigy, i checked also for alsa.conf but i couldn't found nothing related to... how can i tell ubun

[12:56] <stefg> ironfroggy: not sure... all i can tell is that ubuntu to ubuntu ssh works pw-less with the guide i gave you. Maybe the ssh host is confiured to require a pass in any case?
[12:56] <Pelo> eZtaR,  try  brevity
[12:56] <ironfroggy> im using authorized_keys, no 2, on my other boxes and it works.
[12:57] <cwgannon> the easiest way to convert 5000+ m4as with tags to ogg is ... ?

[12:57] <cocox> crimsun, where can i look for the name that ubuntu is giving to my soundcard in orther to use "asoundconf set-default-card  xxx"????

[12:57] <ironfroggy> stefg: well i can change that if i knew what configuration to look for. i have full access.
[12:57] <bsnider> Pelo: i have xorg.conf edited properly. still, the screen resolution is incorrect. i have to use nvidia-settings to drive it to the native resolution
[12:57] <eZtaR> what Pelo? :P
[12:57] <cwgannon> Pelo: it gives me an error, every 20-some songs
[12:58] <Pelo> eZtaR, try and be breif

[01:00] <spyteman> "kernel headers"
[01:00] <Pelo> spyteman, same as in anyother linux os

[01:00] <spyteman> where is it in any other linux os then Pelo?
[01:01] <ironfroggy> are there any logs i can watch for sshd?
[01:01] <Pelo> spyteman,  I don'T know and if you donT' eitehr you probably shoudln'T be messing with that
[01:01] <negnin> cwgannon: I would write a script calling faad en oggenc but I don't if the tags would survive

[01:16] <nekkidtruth> I tried installing Gentoo (just for the adventure) and found it to be rather difficult for my tastes so I settled on Xubuntu.  Anyway, I got fairly far in the Gentoo installation process, setup the disks etc...but when I put in the Xubuntu live CD and double click install on the desktop, it tries to setup "sda1" etc instead of "hda1"....it's not a SCSI drive O.o
[01:16] <abc> any GUI for custom Ubuntu CD creation?
[01:16] <nekkidtruth> It's also picking up the previously created partitions etc from the Gentoo install.

[01:17] <patbam> hi, i'm trying to burn an ubuntu iso with cd/dvd creator and got the question " It appears that the disc, when created, will contain a single disc image file.  Do you want to create a disc from the contents of the image or with the image file inside?" which do i want?
[01:17] <vanadio> nek try the alternate iso
[01:17] <IntuitiveNipple> "create disk from the image"
[01:17] <nekkidtruth> There is an alternate ISO? >.>

[01:18] <CaptainMorgan> !firefox
[01:18] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple: thanks.
[01:18] <abc> any GUI for custom Ubuntu CD creation?
[01:18] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: how do you want to update it?
[01:18] <brad__> patbam: From the contents of the image. Creating it with the image file inside will produce a cd that just has the image file on it.
[01:18] <kevin__> nekkidtruth: don't panic - afaik, the way in which drives are handled has changed with 7.04, and ide drives will now appear as scsi, ie, sdaX.. at least, that's my experience so far..

[01:19] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple, brad__: er, which one of you is right?
[01:19] <knightrider_> howdy
[01:19] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: the version you are using depends upon the repositories you are using for upgrades or anything you do manually
[01:19] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: are you used to using apt?
[01:19] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: We said the same thing :)
[01:19] <CaptainMorgan> yigal, yes
[01:19] <CaptainMorgan> somewhat
[01:19] <nekkidtruth> I don't think that's actually the case.  This is the 4th time I'm installing an *ubuntu distro, and the first time ever I've seen it refer to this drive as sda*
[01:20] <psyion> hello everyone
[01:20] <negnin> abc: no, I don't do UIs :) I was trying to make the bot tell you about repeating a question, but I killed it instead :(

[01:20] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: so are you trying to find a repos with 0.6 in it or download firefox and install manually?

[01:20] <dsctm3> sorry/thanks
[01:20] <abc> negnin: is there something wrong with periodically repeating a question?

[01:20] <psyion> can any1 here help me out gettin my radeon 2600xt drivers installed? im new to unbuntu today
[01:21] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: why do you want 0.6 rather than 0.4?
[01:21] <patbam> sigh, it seems to have hung
[01:21] <nekkidtruth> rlount: The drive has always come up as hda.
[01:21] <CaptainMorgan> yigal, why not? :)
[01:21] <rlount> nekkidtruth, cool, but is it SATA?
[01:21] <psyion> any1?
[01:21] <negnin> abc: I will tell you when the bot is revived :)
[01:21] <abc> is there any way to save my current live ubuntu session on a cd (so I could boot it later?)
[01:21] <nekkidtruth> rlount: Nope IDE
[01:21] <brad__> patbam: There may be an option in whatever program you are using to burn from an image as opposed to say a "data CD." It may be better to find that option.
[01:21] <kevin__> psyion: are you running 7.04?
[01:22] <psyion> how do i check lol
[01:22] <rlount> nekkidtruth, weird.

[01:22] <CaptainMorgan> yigal, nvd, apparently I don't have to - using an app that says to update to a new version if problems exist, and I've found a way to bypass the problem, thanks anyways
[01:22] <brad__> patbam: Sorry, I'm using kubuntu or I would look for you.
[01:22] <yigal> I use screen and I have a vim process in the terminal I have run screen with in the background.  Is it possible to move a process from the terminal pts/9 to pts/1
[01:22] <kevin__> psyion: go to system -> about ubuntu and in the blurb it should tell you which version
[01:23] <nekkidtruth> Interestingly enough though, each time I install any form of ubuntu, even if it's the same one, there are almost always difference results O.o
[01:23] <nekkidtruth> different*
[01:23] <psyion> 7.04
[01:23] <psyion> woop
[01:23] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: I am glad it worked out
[01:23] <nekkidtruth> But this one has me totally stumped.
[01:23] <Geeunkown> fas
[01:24] <jamin> can someone help me make my soundcard record 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03)
[01:24] <abc> is there any way to save my current live ubuntu session on a cd (so I could boot it later?)
[01:24] <kevin__> psyion: ok, go to system -> administration -> restricted drivers manager. it should list your ati card and from there you can install the necessary driver. let me know how you get on
[01:24] <negnin> yigal: isn't it easier to detach your screen and attach it somewhere else?
[01:24] <nekkidtruth> vanadio, why would I try the alternate ISO?  Just out of curiousity.
[01:24] <anonobomber> yigal: screen -r
[01:24] <DShepherd> abc, http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/index.php -- check out reconstructor.. not sure if that is what you want
[01:24] <abc> Thanks
[01:25] <psyion> i did that before and it stoped me booting ubuntu so i had to reinstall
[01:25] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: In CD/DVD creator goto Help > Contents then "Writing CDs or DVDs" then "Creating a Disc from an image file"
[01:25] <yigal> negnin & anonobomber: yes of course this works but in general is it possible to move a process that is running in the background of one terminal to the foreground of another
[01:25] <psyion> took me to command rpomt type thing no gui
[01:25] <dsevilla> :( new gnome 2.20 in gutsy is broken :(
[01:25] <Pici> !gutsy | dsevilla
[01:25] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: The solution is to right-click the .ISO file you downloaded and choose "Write to Disc"
[01:25] <kevin__> psyion: what happened exactly? did you just end up with a black screen?
[01:25] <psyion> yeah
[01:25] <psyion> asking for a password
[01:26] <psyion> and username
[01:26] <yigal> anonobomber: oh, screen -r ok, yes, great
[01:26] <dsevilla> Pici: ?
[01:26] <phar0z> alright maybe a weird question: but can a native English speaker help me with one thing please?
[01:26] <kevin__> did it say anything about x not being able to start?
[01:26] <DShepherd> Pici, soething up with the bot?
[01:26] <psyion> not that i cant remember
[01:26] <DShepherd> !hi
[01:27] <rlount> phar0z, whats up?
[01:27] <phar0z> hi rlount
[01:27] <DShepherd> !hi
[01:27] <phar0z> rlount, u are a native English speaker?
[01:27] <psyion> i can try again
[01:27] <rlount> Yes I am.
[01:27] <DShepherd> :-(
[01:27] <arkanes> is there a way to agt-get remove all the packages that were installed by a metapackage like kubuntu-desktop?
[01:27] <phar0z> i'll ask you something private then
[01:27] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple: that's what i did, but now i just have: http://ruphus.com/stash/Screenshot-Write_to_Disc.png and teh cd isn't spinning
[01:27] <cwgannon> negnin: thanks for the script -- i'll give it a shot if soundconverter fails
[01:27] <PriceChild> DShepherd, the bot had to be restarted, he will be back very soon :)
[01:27] <rlount> From Oregon, US English but it's all I have ;)
[01:27] <mc44> phar0z: the channel ##english exists for help with English btw :)
[01:27] <hmhowie> phar0z: i can pretend to be a native english speaker :)
[01:27] <psyion> how can i configure x?
[01:27] <DShepherd> PriceChild, ok.. i thought he didnt like me anymore
[01:27] <psyion> hopfully thats is
[01:27] <PriceChild> !xconfig | psyion
[01:27] <phar0z> I have a discussion with windows users about this
[01:27] <PriceChild> bahhhh :D
[01:28] <phar0z> Furthermore, thanks to this program I developed a view which goes further than your, let us be frank, retarded insights. Is it your or yours in this sentence?
[01:28] <fulio> when i booted my laptop , it said " there was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon" and my apearance and my icons are back to the original. any help?
[01:28] <rlount> phar0z, ok.
[01:28] <PriceChild> psyion, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, or just edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:28] <psyion> sorry pricechild    im new have no idea?
[01:28] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: It says "calculating size" - how long have you been waiting?
[01:28] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:28] <whileimhere> Is there a way to load a uber low load gnome? Particularly I just want to boot into one program called Wahcade.
[01:28] <PriceChild> psyion, what are you really trying to do?
[01:28] <psyion> get my 2600xt drivers working
[01:28] <meoblast001> hello
[01:29] <PriceChild> 2600?
[01:29] <negnin> !repeat | abc
[01:29] <PriceChild> nvidia 2600?
[01:29] <yigal> anonobomber: no, that is not what I want, I thought screen -r would be different than screen -R, perhaps allow me to exactly what I wanted and attach a process to screen, it doesn't do that though.
[01:29] <fulio> when i booted my laptop , it said " there was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon" and my apearance and my icons are back to the original. any help?
[01:29] <ubotu> psyion: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[01:29] <psyion> oki typed sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg at promt andpiut password
[01:29] <PriceChild> I wasn't aware there was such a card... :s
[01:29] <Jack_Sparrow> 6200?
[01:29] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: I always use K3B so I'm not sure how useful that is, but I'd try other discs just in case you've got a bad one
[01:29] <DShepherd> whileimhere, xfce is like a low gnome..
[01:29] <meoblast001> i read the manuals and searched google but i cant figure it out... i want to create a directory and upload a folder to my subversion. how do i do this?
[01:29] <abc> negnin: is that just gonna tell me how repeating a question makes kittens cry?
[01:29] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple: alright.
[01:29] <kevin__> psyion: strange. i think you might be better off going onto the ubuntu forums - do a search, and post a message if nothing comes up - it's easier to work through things away from the immediacy of irc
[01:29] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple: thanks
[01:29] <patbam> now iu just need to figure out how to kill the thing, heh
[01:29] <brad__> I don't think it's a bad disk, the question makes sense if you are trying to burn an image file to a data disk, as opposed to trying to burn the image.
[01:30] <arkanes> meoblast001: you don't "upload" things to subversion, but you can svn add a directory just as you would a file
[01:30] <ubotu> abc: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[01:30] <whileimhere> DSheperd: Yeah but I would like to totally avoid the desktop and have just Wahcade load.
[01:30] <psyion> kevin can i private chat with u ?
[01:30] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: System > Administration > System Monitor
[01:30] <DShepherd> meoblast001, mkdir folder && svn add folder && svn commit -m "new folder" folder
[01:30] <meoblast001> arkanes: then how do i get my stuff there?
[01:30] <DShepherd> meoblast001, i think..
[01:30] <arkanes> whileimhere: you don't need to boot into gnome to run KDE apps
[01:30] <arkanes> meoblast001: you commit
[01:31] <meoblast001> arkanes: how do i do that?
[01:31] <abc> negnin: thanks for preaching. I've seen that message plenty.
[01:31] <ironfroggy> is there a defined way to add a public key to authorized_keys
[01:31] <arkanes> meoblast001: read the SVN tutorial, it'll take you through the things you need to know
[01:31] <ironfroggy> my sshd isnt accepting the key, but i can see that it is trying it. im wondering if my authorized_keys is wrong.
[01:31] <whileimhere> Is there a way to boot into an x environment and load just one program that loads the various games and still has sound and joystick support.
[01:31] <spyteman> can someone do "sudo modprobe lir + TAB" in terminal and tell me which lirc_ modules show up?
[01:31] <kevin__> psyion: yes, no probs.. not sure how we do that tho..
[01:32] <nzvip> How do I get sound to work without rebooting?
[01:32] <spyteman> talking about someone who hasnt messed with LIRC, need original installation information :)
[01:32] <psyion> i sent u a pm
[01:32] <psyion> can u see it?
[01:33] <sh3l1> well, guys. i'm installing ubuntu and (very likely) shooting myself in the foot
[01:33] <spyteman> anyone?
[01:33] <kevin__> psyion - er, can't see anything yet.. i'm using xchat
[01:33] <psyion> me too
[01:33] <negnin> abc: just keeping my promise
[01:33] <psyion> left hand panel?
[01:33] <abc> negnin: you're too kind
[01:33] <spyteman> psyion kevin__ could you please do "modprobe li" and then press TAB to complete and tell me what modules show up?
[01:33] <fulio> What does it mean when it says "There was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon" and my appearance changed and my icon.
[01:34] <psyion> modprobeli
[01:34] <meoblast001> arkanes: Aborted (core dumped)
[01:34] <whileimhere> What is "Failsafe Terminal" in the GDM?
[01:34] <brad__> lol
[01:34] <psyion> nothing?
[01:34] <brad__> spyteman: Module li not found.
[01:34] <meoblast001> whileimhere: its just like a terminal
[01:34] <meoblast001> whileimhere: as far as ive used it
[01:35] <fulio> What does it mean when it says "There was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon" and my appearance changed and my icon.
[01:35] <kevin__> psyion: nothing showing on LH panel (i'm using gnome xchat actually...)
[01:35] <DShepherd> sh3l1, make sure u have a backup foot :-)
[01:35] <psyion> can u click my name?

[01:36] <negnin> abc: you want to tell fulio about repeat? you know the message by heart don't you?
[01:36] <NETabuse> If I have an avi file(divx encoded or something else) is there any good tools for re-encoding to ipod movie? for ubuntu :)
[01:36] <Kitche> fulio means gnome settings daemon most likely didn't start
[01:36] <brad__> Is there a way to access something in remote:/ from the shell?
[01:36] <whileimhere> meoblast001: What I am seeing is that when I log into GNOME and run say the MAME ROM called MORTAL KOMBAT I have no issues. When I am in the Failsafe Terminal I get everything but sound. Any ideas?
[01:36] <fulio> Kitche, how do i start it?
[01:36] <kevin__> psyion - yes, ok....!
[01:36] <meoblast001> whileimhere: use gnome
[01:37] <meoblast001> arkanes: Aborted (core dumped).... how do i fix this
[01:37] <markgreene> Hey guys. What's your prefered subversion client?
[01:37] <whileimhere> meoblast001 I get some slowdown and such when in gnome
[01:37] <psyion> add me to msn<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[01:37] <ironfroggy> how can i manually verify that a public key matches a private key?
[01:37] <meoblast001> whileimhere: run /etc/init.d/gdm stop and tell me if the app works there
[01:37] <DShepherd> markgreene, the text based one that comes with ubuntu..
[01:38] <whileimhere> meoblast001 I do not understand
[01:38] <ffighter> hello, I'm trying to configure dual monitors on feisty
[01:38] <meoblast001> in SVN, what does Aborted (core dumped) mean?
[01:38] <devtrash> Has any succesfully used a Haupauge PVR350 + lirc + IRBlaster + Scientific Atlantic 2200?  Or does someone  know where there are some instrustions on doing so?
[01:38] <ironfroggy> i know the keys should be matches, but i have to figure out why its being rejected by the server.
[01:38] <markgreene> DShepherd: Forgive my ignorance. I did not know ubuntu came pre-installed with a subversion client. What's it called?
[01:38] <ffighter> first question is: My LCD monitor has the following line on its screen:  Option         "metamodes" "CRT-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0" - shouldn't it be LCD
[01:38] <DShepherd> markgreene, i didnt say it was pre-installed :-)
[01:39] <PriceChild> markgreene, it doesn't, install it with "sudo apt-get install subversion"
[01:39] <ffighter> ?
[01:39] <ironfroggy> markgreene: its called svn.. what else would it be called?
[01:39] <ffighter> or it doesn't matter
[01:39] <kevin__> psyion - ok, got you
[01:39] <peepsalot> how are serial ports accessed in Ubuntu? i have a new USB -> serial adapter that I'm not sure how to use
[01:39] <psyion> msg me?
[01:40] <ffighter> any suggestions?
[01:40] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, they get mapped to something similar to /dev/ttyUSB0
[01:40] <DShepherd> ffighter, nvidia-settings is a GUI way to do it..
[01:40] <devtrash> peepsalot, What make and model?
[01:40] <jrib> !ipod > NETabuse (read the private message from ubotu)
[01:41] <jpastore> hey so I'm having an unusual  issue.  I can create pptp connection to my office when I connect to my home network with a cable instead of wirelessly
[01:41] <markgreene> DShepherd: You said the one that "comes" with Ubuntu. So by that pre-installed is a given asumption. ironfroggy: Sorry. I don't know what else it would be called. I am new to subversion so, as I told DShepherd, ignorance is the name of the game.
[01:41] <ffighter> DShepherd, thanks
[01:41] <jpastore> is there somewhere I can specify that it's ok to use my wifi card
[01:41] <ffighter> DShepherd, but does that CRT there on my LCD monitor screen make any difference?
[01:41] <DShepherd> markgreene, sorry.. never meant to mislead you
[01:41] <markgreene> PriceChild: Thanks I will isntall it
[01:42] <DShepherd> ffighter, I dont know
[01:42] <markgreene> DShepherd: Forget it.  Forget about it.
[01:42] <markgreene> DShepherd: Thanks for the help
[01:42] <veynom> what is a keyring?
[01:42] <squarebottle> Good news! DistroWatch is back up and running!
[01:42] <DShepherd> markgreene, ok.. if you insist.. you ass! :-)
[01:42] <baconbits> Alright, I got it burned and it boots and everything. Will the disk be able to repartition my HDD or do I need to do that with a different program? And how can I do so safely without ruining my current XP partition?
[01:42] <DShepherd> !coc | DShepherd

[01:43] <peepsalot> devtrash, this is the adapter: http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/EvaluationKits/TTL-232R-3V3-AJ.htm
[01:43] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, if you watch the /var/log/messages file while plugging in your device... you will see the device mapping:  "tail -f /var/log/messages"

[01:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about devil - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:44] <squarebottle> kitche: Aww, relax. I think a lot of the people in here would appreciate the little notice about DistroWatch, especially in such an inobtrusive form.
[01:45] <devtrash> peepsalot, I am not familiar with that one.  I know the Prolific convertor has kernel support
[01:45] <baconbits> Alright, I got it burned and it boots and everything. Will the ubuntu disk be able to repartition my HDD or do I need to do that with a different program? And how can I do so safely without ruining my current XP partition?
[01:46] <peepsalot> devtrash, yeah i thought that pretty much all serial adapters had some standard driver, but maybe not.  the mfg site has some driver downloads, but there are two options VCP and D2XX
[01:46] <peepsalot> i don't know what the difference is
[01:46] <devtrash> peepsalot, Ahh I see there is EXPERIEMENTAL support in kernel 2.6.22
[01:46] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, did you try my suggestion?
[01:47] <negnin> baconbits: It will recognize your xp partition, partitioning is done by the disc and even resizing is an option I believe
[01:47] <Poet_with_a_Gun> I'm gonna blab this out there:
[01:47] <devtrash> peepsalot, go to http://ftdi-usb-sio.osurceforge.net/
[01:47] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, yes, it keeps saying, detected, then disconnected, must it be connected to a device to work?
[01:48] <Poet_with_a_Gun> I unarchived the ubuntu GG version to a zip drive so I could try it. It's not booting :D What'd I do wrong:P
[01:48] <Kr0ntab> paste the output in pastebin...

[01:51] <Jose> hi. i'd like to download unbuntu to try it out on livecd but i'm afraid it might interfere with my ms os
[01:51] <devtrash> fulio, what error?
[01:52] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, any idea what it is doing?
[01:52] <DShepherd> Jose, ok
[01:52] <Jose> can anyone assure me that it won't
[01:52] <inertial> Jose: it won't unless you actually install it
[01:52] <astro76> Jose, just booting the LiveCD to try it won't affect your Hard drive at all
[01:52] <compilerwriter> Jose:  It will not interfere with your os.  The live cd won't even touch your hard drive
[01:52] <steel_lady> stefg, are you here?
[01:52] <mosno>   Jose: there's some installer which installs ubuntu as a file on your windows drive, not sure what its called
[01:52] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, well I see yer device is connecting as /dev/ttyUSB0 ...
[01:52] <booster_614> hey guys...how can i make packages run at start up ???
[01:52] <inertial> so how is support of other languages on ubuntu? is it easy to switch between keymaps?
[01:52] <fulio> devtrash, when i boot up my laptop it says "There was an error starting the GNOME settings Daemon" and now my appearance changed and my icons.
[01:52] <Jose> i mean downloading live cd to burn it later.  that itself won't interfere with my os?
[01:53] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, but... it disconnects like 3 seconds into it?  does it just keep doing this on it's own?
[01:53] <negnin> inertial: very easy
[01:53] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, yes, i only plugged it in once during that log
[01:53] <astro76> Jose, same as downloading any file, not at all

[01:53] <Jose> ok.  i'll try it out hope i can say goodbye once n for all to ms
[01:54] <booster_614> thaks guys
[01:54] <kitche> fulio, well you need to figure out why it's closing since that message doesn't help us to help you start gnome-settings in a terminal
[01:54] <Jose> thanks devtrash
[01:54] <steel_lady> guys I have very strange problem. my system freezes when I try to work in one particular folder in external hard disk
[01:54] <DShepherd> yeager, we dont support gnome 2.20 here.. ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:54] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, ah... have you tried using a different USB port?  I'm just wondering if this is a physical issue...
[01:54] <yeager> DShepherd: thanks
[01:54] <devtrash> peepsalot, Do you have ehci or ohci for the usb?
[01:55] <fulio> kitche, what you mean?
[01:55] <peepsalot> devtrash, uhci i think?
[01:55] <kitche> fulio, exctly as I said try running gnome-settings in a terminal to get a REAL error
[01:55] <devtrash> peepsalot, hmmmmm, I used to see a lot of errors like that when I used the ehci module.
[01:56] <fulio> kitche, bash: gnome-settings: command not found
[01:56] <ffighter> I'm having trouble trying to enable Xinerama, did everything through nvidia-settings
[01:56] <djlenoir> can't get my wireless keyboard and mouse to work after a reboot until i unplug the usb dongle and plug it back in. tried suggestions from the forums but didn't work... any ideas?
[01:56] <ffighter> it says it can't be enabled. If I try to enable it manually, the second monitor doesn't get any bars and I can't start any instance of the terminal on gnome!
[01:56] <ffighter> weird
[01:56] <ffighter> any suggestions?
[01:57] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, found it in a bug list... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/81915
[01:57] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, it looks like it does the same on other ports
[01:57] <ffighter> I've got a NVidia GeForce 5900XT
[01:57] <Kr0ntab> ah crap... maybe not..
[01:57] <kitche> fulio, gnome-settings-daemon is the command
[01:57] <Vagstar> :O
[01:57] <Vagstar> Bye.
[01:58] <brad__> Okay, how about if I ask this way? Is there any way to mount an ftp site?
[01:58] <Kr0ntab> may have jumped the gun...
[01:58] <devtrash> brad__, NFS
[01:58] <kitche> brad__, yes use fuse
[01:58] <fulio> kitche, fulio@fulio-laptop:~$ gnome-settings-daemon
[01:58] <fulio> The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error.
[01:58] <fulio> This probably reflects a bug in the program.
[01:58] <fulio> The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
[01:58] <fulio>   (Details: serial 2159 error_code 2 request_code 149 minor_code 35)
[01:58] <devtrash> or fuse
[01:58] <fulio>   (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
[01:58] <fulio>    that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
[01:58] <fulio>    To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
[01:58] <fulio>    option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
[01:58] <brad__> agh
[01:58] <fulio>    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
[01:59] <fulio> [1190073476,000,xklavier.c:xkl_engine_start_listen/]     The backend does not require manual layout management - but it is provided by the applicationfulio@fulio-laptop:~$

[01:59] <kepahe> hello
[01:59] <brad__> mattyboy: You probably mean something like krdc or vncviewer.
[01:59] <devtrash> mattyboy, vncserver and viewer
[01:59] <xtc> hi
[01:59] <kitche> fulio, try reinstalling it maybe that might fix it if not then file a launchpad bug since it goes deeper then that

[02:00] <mattyboy> wow ty
[02:00] <xtc> how can i give permissions to my user to use fusermount ?
[02:00] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, hmm, one comment there says it is related to pcmcia, if I remove these modules files, i don't need to reload the kernel or something?  it will automatically stop using them?

[02:00] <brad__> Whoever said to use NFS... how?
[02:01] <kepahe> basicly i got a black shade everytime i put the toolbar launcher

[02:01] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[02:01] <Kr0ntab> you don't want to delete the modules... you may just need to unload them...  if thats even the problem.
[02:01] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, do you lose the mouse when you reboot?
[02:01] <devtrash> peepsalot, sudo modprobe -r module_name
[02:01] <kepahe> can anybody help?

[02:02] <fulio> kitche, how do i reinstall it?
[02:02] <kepahe> it comes when i installed the toolbar laucher

[02:04] <IntuitiveNipple> djennewe: just use your mouse's ID of course!
[02:04] <fulio> kitche, is it gnome-settings or gnome-settings-daemon?
[02:04] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: just use your mouse's ID of course!
[02:04] <brad__> I don't see anything about ftp on that NFS site...
[02:04] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, just paste those into /etc/modules?

[02:05] <kepahe> has anybody got gnome
[02:05] <antler> kepahe: you're in #ubuntu and you're asking whether peeps in here have gnome?

[02:07] <mattyboy> ion?
[02:07] <ffighter> Does anyone know if I can get a more complex behaviour with dual monitors? Currently, with twin view, I only get a "dumb" extension of the desktop. I would like to have an extension that would keep its windows on its taskbar
[02:07] <ironfroggy> does anyone have a clue what would cause, when a particular public key is sent to a server for authentication, why it would cause: Sep 17 23:54:50 sp1361 sshd[7717] : Received signal 15; terminating.
[02:07] <devtrash> wastrel, what troubles did you run into?
[02:08] <ffighter> maybe treat it as a virtual workspace
[02:08] <mattyboy> im good, i didnt have a question
[02:08] <negnin> !ion
[02:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ion - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:08] <kepahe> where ca i get some infor about this ???
[02:08] <negnin> mattyboy: http://modeemi.fi/~tuomov/ion/
[02:08] <kepahe> any sugestions?
[02:08] <goldbond> well i think my ubuntu install or computer is breaking as i type this. the first two times i tried to boot up, the there were goofy graphics problems. now ubuntu is rendering menus strangely and my background image is corrupted. what could be wrong? how can i fix it?
[02:08] <wastrel> devtrash:  never could get the irblaster to do anything to the cable box
[02:08] <mattyboy> cool
[02:08] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, hmm, it's not a module, but a service?
[02:08] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, read the last comment on that page...
[02:08] <devtrash> wastrel, argh.  Did you ever get anything working?  Another type of blaster perhaps?
[02:08] <wastrel> devtrash:  i could see the IR with digital cam, it would blink, but no config i tried would make the box do anything.
[02:09] <winbond> whats a quick way to navigate up directory tree in the console?
[02:09] <ironfroggy> should any normal circumstances ever cause a connection reset on authentication to an ssh server?
[02:09] <wastrel> devtrash:  i got the card capture working, and i could record, but i'd have to manually change channels on the box.
[02:09] <wastrel> (the cable box0
[02:09] <wastrel> ended up getting a tivo because my wife got sick of me fooling with it
[02:09] <ironfroggy> i mean, if there was something wrong with the key it should just prompt for password, right?
[02:09] <devtrash> wastrel, yeah that's where I am with it as well.

[02:09] <jrib> winbond: cd ..
[02:09] <goldbond> could i have a graphics card problem or could my files be corrupted or did i get a goofy update? why would my menus be rendered strangely with discolorations and static?
[02:10] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, the file /etc/udev/rules.d/85-brltty.rules  you may need to comment out a line or two.. looking for the line...
[02:10] <negnin> mattyboy: very nice basic windowmanager without overlapping windows and a focus on the keyboard rather than the mouse (anti carpal tunnel syndrome)
[02:10] <wastrel> devtrash:  if you have ir capture on your linux box, you can try recording directly from your remote
[02:11] <wastrel> devtrash:  that was going to be my next project but we got the tivo instead and scrapped it :]
[02:11] <winbond> jrib, thank you , any other useful ones u know? im new
[02:11] <mattyboy> nokeyboard 4 me
[02:11] <Michael_Garvie> winbond: what would you like to do?
[02:11] <devtrash> wastrel, you mean the cable provied remote or the PVR350 remote?
[02:11] <jrib> winbond: cd -   takes you to the last directory you were in.  ~ is short for your HOME.  ~USERNAME is short for USERNAME's HOME
[02:11] <mattyboy> gnome=my friend
[02:12] <wastrel> devtrash:  you use a program that records the keys from the cable box remote
[02:12] <jrib> winbond: oh and just 'cd' takes you straight to ~
[02:12] <wastrel> then use that to generate your lirc config
[02:12] <winbond> Michael_Garvie, just want to learn how to quickly navigate the directories in the console
[02:12] <devtrash> wastrel, irrecord right?
[02:12] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, ah yeah, sorry, i didn't read that whole page, was getting ahead of myself
[02:12] <mattyboy> dasher=very cool/fast text entry
[02:12] <winbond> jrib, nice, ty
[02:13] <Michael_Garvie> winbond: its much like windows cmd console, except its case sensitive and you need spaces between each command....
[02:13] <jrib> !cli > winbond (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:13] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, so once I plug it in, i use getty to connect to the serial device?

[02:19] <devtrash> wastrel, ok thanks
[02:19] <atarinox> jrib: by much?
[02:19] <jrib> ishock: you create it.  There's probably an example one in /usr/share/doc/eggdrop/ but there are a lot of websites that will generate one too if you search
[02:19] <wastrel> gl
[02:19] <jrib> atarinox: best to ask in #winehq
[02:20] <ishock> jrib, what file should I put it in? /usr/lib/eggdrop?
[02:21] <jrib> ishock: I don't think it matters, you just specify the path.  I've never used eggdrop though
[02:22] <jernster> can anyone suggest a good pdf editor?
[02:22] <wastrel> jernster:  i don't know how good but there's pdfedit
[02:22] <antler> jernster: acroreader (or something like that). it doesn't save edited text fields though
[02:22] <jernster> anything that will let me actually edit the pdf should suffice.  all i've found are readers.
[02:23] <jrib> jernster: if all else fails, you can import the pdf into gimp and draw on it
[02:23] <wastrel> i installed pdfedit for some reason i no longer recall but i don't think i ever used it

[02:26] <panosru> why i can't execute from my other disk ?
[02:26] <panosru> for example Eclipse

[02:27] <panosru> its ext3 not ntfs
[02:27] <wastrel> panosru:  is it mounted with noexec ?
[02:27] <cec> MasterShrek, actually this is a remote windows server I need to connect to. I have no control over what gets installed and I have not option but to connect via remote access to the desktop
[02:27] <runemaste644> put sudo before it panosru
[02:28] <panosru> i'm logged in with su on terminal and typed ./eclipse but still permission denied
[02:28] <MasterShrek> cec you need a vnc server program running to access it i believe
[02:28] <panosru> wastrel i mount it with GNOME partition editor
[02:28] <MasterShrek> panosru, is it executable?
[02:28] <runemaste644> are you admin?
[02:28] <wastrel> panosru:  type mount and check the flags for that partition
[02:28] <runemaste644> u mean gparted?
[02:28] <atarinox> would this be possible: dual boot windows and ubuntu w/ the ubuntu partition on an external hard drive?

[02:30] <rgallego> ok, thank you....
[02:30] <Michael_Garvie> hehe
[02:30] <rgallego> first of all.... I have a toshiba laptop...

[02:30] <main___> anyone???
[02:30] <rgallego> the touchpad is really really really slow....
[02:31] <UncleD> I have a server at an ISP with confidential information on it. Is it possible to protect my server so that even with a LiveCD, someone cannot gain access to my machine?

[02:31] <rgallego> what can i do?
[02:31] <meoblast001> if a USB Installer boots half way then stops saying some BusyBox thing than (inittransfs) or something like that, what did i do wrong
[02:31] <jrib> runemaste644: 1089
[02:32] <MasterShrek> rgallego, dont type like that, put everything on one line, its much easier to read
[02:32] <wastrel> panosru:  "noexec"  you can't run programs from that partition
[02:32] <cec> thanks jrib
[02:32] <Michael_Garvie> UncleD: usually that entails turning off cd boot in bios and password protecting the bios
[02:32] <rgallego> ok sorry...
[02:32] <MasterShrek> rgallego, as far as that i dont know, does it act the same using a usb mouse?
[02:32] <linuxpoet> Thought I would throw out that the PostgreSQL community is having a conference in October: http://www.postgresqlconference.org
[02:32] <panosru> wastrel, how can i make it executable?
[02:32] <invitado> hola
[02:32] <xCaLib3r> rgallego: is it the mouse? or is the system itself running slow?
[02:32] <panosru> if i edit the fstab file?
[02:32] <rgallego> I haven't tried that... I can't access a usb mouse at this moment
[02:32] <jrib> linuxpoet: thanks, but in the future please use #ubuntu-offtopic instead.  Thanks

[02:32] <kravlin> hey. does anyone know a good video ripping software for Ubuntu?
[02:32] <devtrash> wastrel, holy crap!  when I run irw I get output
[02:33] <runemaste644> panosru: Linux cannot safely write to NTFS because NTFS gets fragmented and there is no defragmenter
[02:33] <wastrel> panosru:  unmount and remount.  maybe in the gui thing it lets you choose?  i dunno i use the command line for mounting usually
[02:33] <kravlin> I also need an editing software.
[02:33] <invitado> helloooooooooooooo
[02:33] <jrib> kravlin: rip from dvd? or?
[02:33] <wastrel> oh it's ntfs?
[02:33] <rgallego> is any alps touchpad driver out there?
[02:33] <Scunizi> invitado: caio
[02:33] <wastrel> i dunno from ntfs
[02:33] <MasterShrek> kravlin, dvdrip for ripping dvds, kino i believe is a video editor
[02:33] <runemaste644> panosru: get in a chat with only me
[02:33] <UncleD> Michael_Garvie: Thats the answer i was looking for. Thank you
[02:33] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, i added the lines to my bluetooth file, rebooted and no good. i am not sure i have the right bluetooth address though, what is the easiest way to poll that information please?
[02:33] <rgallego> btw... sorry about my english :P
[02:33] <panosru> wastrel, if i unmout it and then i mount it will i lose my files?
[02:33] <Michael_Garvie> UncleD: no problemo
[02:33] <hiways85> gsynaptics is nice touchpad driver
[02:33] <melvin> hola
[02:34] <kravlin> jrib: yeah. rip from dvd.
[02:34] <antler> MasterShrek: dvdrip rips, but doesn't compress, or does it?
[02:34] <rgallego> where can I have gsynaptics driver?
[02:34] <MasterShrek> i dont know antler
[02:34] <runemaste644> habla no espaol
[02:34] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple. I tried getting it from device manager

[02:34] <melvin> alguien habla espanol
[02:34] <sebastian> hi guys ... what's the easiest way to upgrade from feisty to gutsy (tribe 5)?
[02:34] <jrib> kravlin: kino like MasterShrek mentioned and pitivi are two video editors that I know of
[02:34] <panosru> runemaster644, yes
[02:34] <wastrel> panosru:  if you've made changes to the files on the partition they'll be synced up when you unmount.  when you remount they'll all be there
[02:34] <steel_lady> guys, hear this strangest thing: first I thought that it is the system, then I thought that it is the external disk. then I realized that it is one folder on external disk and when I copied that folder to my hard disk, the system is freezing just by opening the folder and not even touching files!
[02:34] <MasterShrek> k9copy is a good video prog too
[02:34] <kazol> MasterShrek: It doesn't work.
[02:35] <hiways85> find synaptic package manager n search for it
[02:35] <jrib> rgallego: it's in ubuntu's universe repository, use your favorite package manager
[02:35] <MasterShrek> kazol what doesnt work?
[02:35] <ishock> jrib how can I find eggdrop file?
[02:35] <Kanuha> how can I change ownership of a NTFS drive? Do I chown 666 username /media/WindowsXP ?
[02:35] <jrib> ishock: you need to create one
[02:35] <ishock> How?...
[02:35] <Scunizi> ishock: locate eggdrop
[02:35] <kazol> MasterShrek: k9copy-it requires an external DVD authoring app that I have, but cannot call a function for some reason.
[02:36] <ishock> Scunizi, I have /usr/share/doc/eggdrop and like /usr/lib/eggdrop
[02:36] <Kanuha> !ubotu chown Kanuha
[02:36] <MasterShrek> that doesnt mean it doesnt work, it just means it doesnt work for you
[02:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chown kanuha - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:36] <jrib> ishock: with the settings you want.  Google for 'eggdrop configuration', there are several websites that generate one.  Also, you may want to try #eggdrop
[02:36] <antler> Kanuha: what is it that you want to do with the ntfs drive?
[02:36] <Scunizi> ishock: and you want to find it?
[02:36] <antler> merely access it, or read from and write to it?
[02:36] <xCaLib3r> Is there anyway to adjust lcd brightness via keyboard shortcuts w/ Fiesty? This is a Vaio - not much hotkey support from them w/ Linux
[02:36] <kazol> MasterShrek: Same thing with k3b but it returns an error msg.
[02:36] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: sorry, didn't see your message. Start a terminal and use "hcitool scan"
[02:36] <MasterShrek> k3b works great for me
[02:37] <kazol> MasterShrek: What did you do after installing it?
[02:37] <panosru> wastrel, ok i umount it and remount but still i get /dev/sdb1 on /media/disk type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) :(
[02:37] <MasterShrek> umm
[02:37] <runemaste644> !ubotu NTFS
[02:37] <Kanuha> antler, I have spreadsheets on a NTFS drive that when I open them with OO they are read only. I need to be able to write to them
[02:37] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:37] <antler> k3b takes 3.5 hours to rip a movie for me....
[02:37] <MasterShrek> run k3b
[02:37] <MasterShrek> derr
[02:37] <kazol> MasterShrek: You just ran k3b normally or clicked on the icon?
[02:37] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, no problem, tried that already and it says "Device is not available: No such device"
[02:37] <wastrel> panosru:  is there any configuration in that GUI mounting thing that lets you change the mount options?
[02:37] <MasterShrek> either way, it works fine
[02:37] <runemaste644> !panosru test

[02:38] <jrib> runemaste644: please stop
[02:38] <runemaste644> ok ill stop
[02:38] <kazol> MasterShrek: Others have told me I have to initially run it as root; I have, but keep getting error msgs.
[02:38] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: okay, does "hcitool con" show the mouse connected?
[02:38] <MasterShrek> kazol, what kind of error messages? add your user to cdrom
[02:38] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir:  and the keyboard, of course!
[02:38] <steel_lady> can someone have any idea why would computer freeze over one folder?
[02:38] <Kanuha> antler, I already installed that and went through the configuration. The problem is that those files belong to root.
[02:38] <panosru> wastrel, yes there is but if i check the the box to make the drive executable it says me that i don't have this permission
[02:38] <runemaste644> its just the someonesscreenname: message thing doesnt work
[02:38] <kazol> MasterShrek: I'll try installing it again.
[02:38] <panosru> maybe if i logout and login as root?
[02:39] <runemaste644> no
[02:39] <runemaste644> linux cannot write to NTFS safely
[02:39] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, no it shows no connections... but i am using them and it shows up in device manager
[02:39] <runemaste644> NTFS fragments
[02:39] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: that does seem strange
[02:39] <antler> runemaste644: i haven't had a problem, but then again it's only been a few TBs of data xfer
[02:40] <panosru> i will try it, brb
[02:40] <ishock> jrib, know any sites off the top of your head that generate a conf file for it?
[02:40] <runemaste644> antler: the runemaste644: message thing does NOT work

[02:40] <suds> Hey, real quick, does Steam work on Linux?
[02:40] <winbond> anyone know a guide how to make webpages look better in firefox?  aka  , which fonts to use
[02:40] <antler> runemaste644: huh?
[02:41] <Kanuha> suds, yes
[02:41] <runemaste644> wait i have Konversation
[02:41] <jrib> ishock: I don't use any, so I can't recommend them.  Try googling 'eggdrop generate conf'
[02:41] <runemaste644> duh
[02:41] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, device manager lists BT Mini-Receiver with couple sub-entries of the same name with the mouse and keyboard listed one under each entry... yes, using both right now.
[02:41] <MasterShrek> wtf is eggdrop? i thought it was some kinda visualization
[02:41] <Kanuha> suds, through wine

[02:42] <brasileiro-gauch> Hi! I use ubuntu feisty with special 3d effects active. Everytime I open a program, like firefox or xchat, the window height and width are bigger than my screen size. So I need to resize the window to use the program. But if I close it and start the same program again, the window back giant again! What can I do?
[02:42] <dv310p3r> hello
[02:42] <MasterShrek> brasileiro-gauch, not use desktop effects...or ask in #ubuntu-effects
[02:42] <dv310p3r> I have a few questions
[02:42] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, yes it is
[02:42] <brasileiro-gauch> How Can I tell to my window manager: I want my windows opening with no more than 800x600 pixels
[02:42] <antler> brasileiro-gauch: heheh. have you tried changing your screen resolution?
[02:42] <MasterShrek> !ask
[02:42] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:42] <Kanuha> brasileiro-gauch, install devilspie
[02:43] <jrib> brasileiro-gauch: I would file bugs against the window manager
[02:43] <xCaLib3r> Is there anyway to change / create keyboard shortcuts for LCD brightness w/ Fiesty?
[02:43] <runemaste644> !anything
[02:43] <ubotu> So, you wanted to lure me into saying I don't know anything about anything? Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone.
[02:44] <dv310p3r> I want to be able to cut and past a file from my home directory into the usr/local directory the only way i was able to do it was to change the login window settings to log in as root
[02:44] <realshiva> hi guys, i got problems using iptables as a gateway for my lan, i tryed iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -s <IP_ADDRESS>/18 -j MASQUERADE
[02:44] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, i just installed bluez-utils, do i need to reboot before they will take effect maybe?
[02:44] <realshiva>  but it doesn't worl
[02:44] <MasterShrek> dv310p3r, learn to use the terminal and use sudo
[02:44] <Michael_Garvie> xCalib3r: depends on the system your talking about... if its a notebook the keys are bios based
[02:44] <dv310p3r> I am afraid of doing this becuase everyone on the internet makes it sound like the worst thing on the planet to do

[02:46] <techie1> I had to remove ubuntu and left back with windows xp but have lost my ability to burn cd's with Nero. All the cd are there but I think I remove the partition for that fdrive
[02:46] <runemaste644> it is sooo fun though

[02:46] <wastrel> techie1:  you can't burn cd's in windows?
[02:46] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, ok will hold out another month or so then... i can live with resetting the usb device after every reboot until then. thanks again for your help.
[02:47] <melvin> hola
[02:47] <techie1> I meant all the C and Drive are there but Nero will freeze up because there is no space (I think)m allocated to that removable fdisk which I think is the one for the CD burners

[02:47] <Michael_Garvie> xCalib3r: i work on dells and they have the same sort of setup... the keys are not recognized in windows or ubuntu... there done throught the BIOS, but not switchable

[02:49] <brasileiro-gauch> I could be a problem with compiz & metacity integration ?
[02:50] <MasterShrek> annihilus, you may need to convert it to an iso, then mount it, i dunno how to though
[02:50] <wastrel> ffighter:  maybe msttcorefonts (multiverse repo)
[02:50] <Michael_Garvie> brasileiro-gauch: possibly... i dont run any extras due to low system specs

[02:52] <newbi> how to stop thing on boot up like eveytime i log in amsn keep showing up.i'm using kubuntu feisty 7.04
[02:52] <runemaste644> !math
[02:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about math - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[02:52] <jrib> runemaste644: if you do that again, I'm going to have to ban you
[02:52] <baconbits> Howdy. My video card isn't natively supported by Ubuntu, so I have to use the fglrx driver. I am currently trying to install Ubuntu, but I can't seem to get anywhere. I boot from the CD, and install the driver, but according to the tutorial I read, I am then supposed to reboot for the driver to take effect or something, but rebooting when I'm only running from the CD throws away all of the changes I've made. What do I need to do?
[02:53] <runemaste644> ok i will seriously stop
[02:53] <ckin2001> newbi, you can change it in system -> preferences -> sessions
[02:53] <Kanuha> whats the command to change ownership of a file?
[02:53] <ckin2001> chown
[02:53] <cwgannon> dir2ogg anybody?
[02:53] <IdleOne> baconbits: you need to install ubuntu
[02:53] <jrib> !permission > Kanuha (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:53] <wastrel> baconbits:  easiest probably is to use the alternate cd (textmode installer)
[02:53] <Michael_Garvie> newbi: check under System-->Prefs-->Sessions
[02:53] <jrib> Kanuha: make sure you do not chown system files as that may break your system
[02:53] <Pelo> baconbits,  use the alternate install cd to install then you can add the driver after
[02:53] <annihilus> ckin2001, well ive been attempting to use ccd2iso but im getting an error that I dont udnerstand at the moment
[02:54] <ckin2001> eek
[02:54] <searayman> how can i get kde4 on ubuntu if i am a gnome feisty user?
[02:54] <runemaste644> is there a way i can prevent myself from doing that again by sending to every1 but ubotu?
[02:54] <ckin2001> try mount -o loop (filename) (mount point)
[02:54] <baconbits> Will the alternate install still help me resize partitions and stuff so that I can shrink XP's partition to make a partition for Ubuntu?
[02:54] <Pelo> searayman,  you'll have to ask in a kde channel
[02:54] <searayman> Pelo, no one responded?
[02:55] <Pelo> baconbits,  yes
[02:55] <IdleOne> baconbits: yes
[02:55] <brasileiro-gauch> hum! I understood  my problem now. If I resize my window to 300x300 (for example), close and open it again, it will start with the same 300x300 pixels. But, if I maximize and close it, it will start maximized but, if I unmaximize, it will stay with 1024x768 pixels and not the original 300x300
[02:55] <brasileiro-gauch> BUG!
[02:55] <baconbits> Awesome, thanks everyone.
[02:55] <Pelo> searayman, patience not all channels are as well attended as this one

[02:56] <vader1102> sslashes, no idea

[03:03] <NemesisD> should i use sudo wine if i'm installing software rather than just wine?

[03:03] <jamiejackson> thx, Pelo
[03:04] <Pelo> vas, I've never used ndiswrapper so I can't realy tell you , you might need to run ndiswrapper once for it to create these files
[03:04] <runemaste644> im registered now
[03:05] <vas> did you check that link? I don't have ndiswrapper installed, that page is showing me how to install it
[03:05] <sslashes> ubotu: is that the only documentation currently available for usplash?

[03:05] <runemaste644> could ppl try to avoid saying my nick so pidgin doesnt squeak at me again?
[03:05] <Pelo> vas, it should be on the install cd
[03:06] <Pelo> runemaste644, we only do that so you know we are talking to you , live with it or turn off the sounds in pidgin
[03:06] <runemaste644> ok
[03:06] <IdleOne> runemaste644: to make sure the person we wish to address see's what we are saying it is suggested to put there nick in every sentence. pidgin can be set to not do that. check the prefs

[03:06] <Max_-> Hi y'all, I just installed the following packages and their dependencies : apache2, libapache2-mod-php5, mysql-server, php5-mysql. Now I'm installing a software which requires a cgi-bin directory and I notice there are none  yet, so I guess CGI is not yet supported... What package do I need to add to my configuration so that I get that cgi-bin directory and cgi support?
[03:06] <vbabiy> Hey have you guys seen fox is not supporting Linux for online tv shows
[03:06] <ironfroggy> any idea why rsync would skip the src directory?
[03:06] <IdleOne> Pelo: :P
[03:07] <runemaste644> i did

[03:07] <IdleOne> Pelo: you type faster then I do
[03:07] <baconbits> So I thought I had the link, but it appears I don't. I don't know how to do the text only install. Anyone got the link?

[03:07] <cwgannon> anybody want to help me with the dir2ogg script?  it's giving me a bizarre error

[03:07] <IdleOne> sslashes: hmmm not sure
[03:07] <runemaste644> well it could be useful anyway
[03:07] <m4st3r> plz recommand utility like microsoft office visio on ubuntu

[03:09] <vader1102> brb
[03:09] <runemaste644> If u dont want to get rid of windows then use Wubi
[03:09] <runemaste644> i used wubi
[03:10] <Scooley01> Available as of dapper? What does that mean? I can't install the latest update in text only?
[03:10] <IdleOne> runemaste644: what is wubi?

[03:10] <Kanuha> I install NTFS-Configurration tool and setup one drive, but I need to add another drive and when I click on the configuration tool again, it doesn't give me the option to add another one.
[03:10] <Pelo> IdleOne,  wubi is an ubuntu installer that works on windows
[03:10] <runemaste644> IdleOne: It installs Ubuntu on a virtual disk
[03:10] <Pelo> Kanuha,  isthe drive mouned ?
[03:10] <runemaste644> IdleOne: Sort of like VirtualBox
[03:10] <Pelo> mounted
[03:10] <IdleOne> Pelo: runemaste644 EWWWW!
[03:10] <Kanuha> Pelo, yes
[03:11] <runemaste644> IdleOne: what do you mean EWWWW!?
[03:11] <Pelo> Kanuha,  try this then , edit fstab , copy the line from you other ntfs drive and change the /dev/... and the mount point
[03:12] <runemaste644> IdleOne: It works fine and I used it cuz i couldnt ditch WInblows
[03:12] <IdleOne> runemaste644: dont see why anyone would want a Virtual Ubuntu setup when the Real thing is great
[03:12] <Pelo> runemaste644,  he means that anyone installing linux from windows is missing the point
[03:12] <IdleOne> Pelo: gets me!
[03:12] <Scooley01> Man, downloading all 700mb all over again just for the text installer seems excessive :(
[03:13] <Pelo> Scooley01,  you'll know for the next time
[03:13] <IdleOne> Scooley01: it is worth having the CD on hand
[03:13] <Scooley01> Oh no, I understand the value of it, I'm just wondering why the text installer couldn't have been included with the main CD >_>
[03:13] <runemaste644> IdleOne & Pelo: You actually dual boot, not a virtual machine. It edits boot.lst and you have a half real install. You can also use LVPM to make it a real install
[03:14] <moneyman> Hey everybody
[03:14] <stepomaticc> hd:-*
[03:14] <Pelo> runemaste644, I know wubi is not a virtual machine  but a realy install is so simple
[03:14] <IdleOne> runemaste644: yeah I get that but I dont have any need for windows. anything I need to do I can do with linux
[03:15] <Scooley01> And for some reason the alternate is not downloading anywhere NEAR as fast as the other disc >:(
[03:15] <runemaste644> Pelo: it is not a VM. It makes a virtual disk and Ubuntu runs by itself
[03:15] <IdleOne> Scooley01: good things come to those who wait
[03:15] <runemaste644> and it allows me to write to NTFS in turn
[03:16] <Scooley01> Good things come quicker to those who choose better mirrors :P
[03:16] <Pelo> runemaste644, we all have write access to our ntfs partitions, it's not that difficult
