[15:29] <kniolet_> Zzeiss: not sure, on my normal macbook install ubuntu was a pain in the ass
[15:30] <jrib> CarlFK: you can use bum or sysv-rc-conf
[15:30] <Zzeiss> kniolet_: OK... how long ago?
[15:30] <bazhang> wos, if it is your hotspot then you should know if it is encrypted or not.
[15:30] <scientes> can i have multiple log ins on the same home directory in differnt oses?
[15:30] <ikonia> ValentineXX: change the permissions on /media/disk/Programs
[15:30] <bazhang> wos, connect to the router and set the encryption if you are not sure
[15:30] <ikonia> scientes you can
[15:30] <NEWK> I'm gonna try some different keyboards and mouses
[15:30] <wos> bazhang: its NOT encrypted
[15:30] <NEWK> I'll be back in a bit
[15:31] <ValentineXX> ikonia: there is written you are not owner you cannot change.. how to?
[15:31] <scientes> so i can share via nfs and then mount the same home in a vm ikonia ?
[15:31] <Zzeiss> scientes: Yes.  The only trick is that they all have to agree as to group and user number per user, else you get hosed on file protection.
[15:31] <bazhang> wos, open a terminal and type ifconfig; how many entries are there
[15:31] <kniolet_> Zzeiss: well 8.04 was REALLY bad, i installed it on at least 4 macbooks and even after i knew what i had to do, it still took 3+ hours to set up. 8.10 is noticeably better (wireless and sound worked out of the box, for example), but it still took 2 hours to get an exetrenal monitor working
[15:31] <ikonia> ValentineXX see who th eowner is and use chmod/chown to change the ownership to yourself
[15:31] <NEWK> Another critical thing to note is that this computer is fairly old. It's from 2001
[15:31] <Zzeiss> scientes: (that's what I do.  I have an Ubuntu Studio install and a FC9 install on the same machine with common user dirs)
[15:31] <ikonia> NEWK: shouldn't cause an issue
[15:31] <NEWK> I checked the requirements, though. It can handle Ubuntu
[15:32] <NEWK> Just in case
[15:32] <Zzeiss> kniolet_: OK.  Hmmm...
[15:32] <wos> bazhang: there are 3
[15:32] <scientes> Zzeiss, i was going to try out freebsd
[15:32] <bazhang> wos, what are they
[15:32] <ValentineXX> ikonia: what are those? chmod/chown?
[15:32] <Zzeiss> scientes: it should be worth trying.  :)
[15:32] <ikonia> ValentineXX: commands
[15:32] <wos> bazhang: eth0 lo and wlan0
[15:33] <seronis> NEWK: unlike the windows world,  older hardware works increasingly better with linux.  not worse
[15:33] <bazhang> wos, in the terminal type sudo dhclient wlan0
[15:33] <ikonia> ValentineXX: or you can add the line usershare owner only = False to the samba config file as the error tells you
[15:33] <ValentineXX> ikonia:type full commands please chown: missing operand
[15:33] <Zzeiss> kniolet_: How long ago (as in what new upgrades to the 8.10 packagekit have happened since then?)
[15:33] <ValentineXX> ikonia: i did i entered that
[15:33] <ikonia> ValentineXX: man chown and mand chmod to learn how to use them
[15:33] <ValentineXX> ikonia: after entering that should i logout and relogin again to my ubuntu?
[15:33] <Zzeiss> kniolet_: and another question: did you boot camp it to dual-boot, or go "whole thing"?
[15:33] <ikonia> ValentineXX you've not done anything yet
[15:34] <ValentineXX> ikonia: i put that line in smb.conf before
[15:34] <ikonia> ValentineXX: samba would need restarting for that change to pickup
[15:34] <ValentineXX> ikonia: how to restart?
[15:35] <ikonia> !samba > ValentineXX
[15:35] <alis313_> hello
[15:35] <loner__> Hi guys, i just upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10 and i don't have the "burn" effect in compiz anymore, does anyone know how to fix it ?
[15:36] <ikonia> loner__ is it no longer listed in ccsm or just not enabled
[15:36] <Deathtech> Heya guys, I have an issue where when i reboot my system remotely, and it comes up, for some reason my wireless card doesnt connect unless i log in locally. Is there a way to set it so that it comes up at boot time vs having me to have to login ?
[15:36] <bazhang> loner__, check that you have all the compiz plugins installed in synaptic; further help in #compiz-fusion
[15:36] <loner__> ikonia what is ccsm ?
[15:36] <ikonia> !info ccsm
[15:37] <Deathtech> Compiz Configuration Settings Manager
[15:37] <ikonia> !info simple-ccsm
[15:37] <andycr> !info compizconfig-settingsmanager
[15:37] <NEWK> OK, I'm booting up again with a different keyboard and mouse
[15:37] <DB42> how do i see the post installation script a .deb file has ?
[15:37] <n8tuser> Deathtech-> on your /etc/network/interfaces   have it up automatically like..     auto wlan0
[15:37] <andycr> I upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04, but there's no option to upgrade to 8.10 in update manager. Anyone know why?
[15:38] <loner__> ubottu then the burn effect is not available in intrepid ?
[15:38] <ksbalaji_> I use hardy and Xchat. I also use vuze. Now what happened to #vuze? Very lonely there/
[15:38] <n8tuser> DB42-> do you have the .deb file?
[15:38] <will00> is there a list of XF86 mouse key functions available somewhere?
[15:38] <NEWK> It's still not working
[15:38] <NEWK> does Ibex not support PS/2 or something?
[15:38] <ikonia> NEWK then I suggest you follow the option I gave earlier
[15:38] <NEWK> Which was?
[15:38] <bazhang> NEWK, sure it does
[15:38] <DB42> n8tuser: ofcourse
[15:38] <bazhang> NEWK, I'm using one now
[15:38] <NEWK> I'm sorry, I have been busy so I may have missed a message
[15:39] <n8tuser> DB42 try to unzip the .deb file
[15:39] <v4vijayakumar> is it possible to automatically (script) power down system, couple of minutes after power cut..? I am using UPS
[15:39] <ksbalaji_> anyone aware of what has come of #vuze? Not much activity there!
[15:39] <ikonia> NEWK: my gut feeling for you here is to 1.) boot into the root console from the boot menu, 2.) test your keyboard there outside of X 3.) if it works move your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/backup.xorg.conf 4.) restart your machine and lets see what state your in
[15:39] <Deathtech> n8tuser: Thanks :)
[15:39] <NEWK> ikonia: I will try that
[15:39] <DB42> n8tuser: i did "dpkg-deb -x <package>"
[15:39] <DB42> i dotn see it there
[15:39] <ikonia> !offtopic > ksbalaji_
[15:40] <south_korea> fosco__, are you there ?
[15:40] <n8tuser> DB42 perhaps something more like  ar xvf xxx.deb
[15:40] <fosco__> yes
[15:40] <Ohmu_> All, I have a particular website where the pictures are not showing.  It's a recent problem - just the last few days.  But running Internet Exploiter thru VirtualBox, the pictures show.  So it's a client thing.  Any ideas?
[15:40] <south_korea> fosco__, where do i put my rom files at (?)
[15:40] <DB42> n8tuser: huh ? doesn't work
[15:40] <joaopinto> DB42, is it a repository package ?
[15:40] <south_korea> fosco__, if you have xmame installed on your system, ~
[15:40] <fosco__> south_korea: wherevere you want, but make sure kxmame points there
[15:40] <DB42> joaopinto: nop
[15:40] <south_korea> fosco__, oh isee.. ok let me try ~ :)
[15:41] <ksbalaji_> ikonia, thanks!
[15:41] <joaopinto> DB42, ok, so you need to extract the control archive with "ar"
[15:41] <n8tuser> DB42 oh, yeah doing a dpkg with extract option is the way to go, i forgot that its not a regular archive
[15:41] <joaopinto> n8tuser, it is a regular "ar" archive
[15:41] <DB42> n8tuser: EXTRACTING doesn't give me the POST INSTALL Script
[15:41] <n8tuser> joaopinto-> is it? i forget things, sowee
[15:41] <AdvoWork> is there any way to edit cups-pdf?
[15:41] <DB42> joaopinto: how do i do that ?
[15:42] <n8tuser> DB42-> then maybe it does not have a post install script?
[15:42] <DB42> i dont seem to have "ar" installed
[15:42] <DB42> ahh, could be
[15:42] <wos> bazhang: it disconnected me
[15:42] <joaopinto> DB42, ar t file.deb
[15:42] <DB42> dont have "ar" installed
[15:42] <joaopinto> DB42, then install it :)
[15:42] <Deathtech> Anyone had an issue upgrading Vuze form the Package Manager repo to the new 4.0 version which is not in the repo yet ?
[15:43] <DB42> it's on the iphone
[15:43] <DarkJimmy> hello
[15:43] <v4vijayakumar> is it possible to automatically (script) power down system, couple of minutes after power cut..? I am using UPS..
[15:43] <DB42> dont want to install junk on it :)
[15:43] <DB42> anyhow i guess it does have a script
[15:43] <joaopinto> DB42, ar is a very small utlity
[15:43] <DB42> doesn't
[15:43] <NEWK> Hhhmmm, when I boot into the root console, my keyboard does work
[15:43] <NEWK> anyway, I'm gonna move that file like you said
[15:43] <KentonS> I'm having a problem mounting remote shares in fstab. The first mount apparently fails, but there's no related message in /var/log/syslog. Any ideas about where I might look to discover what's going wrong?
[15:43] <NEWK> it clearly is the GUI's fault
[15:43] <joaopinto> DB42, there is no other way to check it (I think)
[15:44] <wos> bazhang: ?
[15:44] <bazhang> wos yes
[15:44] <DarkJimmy> does anybody here know if upgrading from hardy heron to intrepid ibex on an acer aspire one will work without problems?
[15:44] <DB42> joaopinto: ok, thanks
[15:44] <dragon1> I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10.but i am not able to sxettings that i had previously..how do i get them...?
[15:44] <wos> bazhang: it disconnected me
[15:44] <bazhang> wos what did
[15:44] <wos> the command you gave me
[15:44] <jrib> dragon1: "sxettings"?
[15:45] <bazhang> wos please paste the output in paste.ubuntu.com
[15:45] <dragon1> jrib:sorry settings
[15:45] <wos> i cant because it disconnects me
[15:45] <jrib> KentonS: did you check /var/log/kern.log and bugs.ubuntu.com?
[15:45] <wos> i have to reboot
[15:45] <unitedpotsmokers> hello, i want to backup miro files on ubuntu, where is the files locates?
[15:45] <bazhang> wos, you have to reboot? that does not make sense
[15:45] <jrib> dragon1: you are "not able to settings"?  You need to rephrase your question and be more specific
[15:45] <wos> ill do it anyway, what was the command again?
[15:46] <DarkJimmy> any aces aspire one owners with Intrepid ibex running?
[15:46] <DarkJimmy> *acer
[15:46] <DB42> just in case, <stew> DB42: "dpkg -e" can be used to extract the control files from a .deb :)
[15:46] <dragon1> jrib:i am not able to set themes,nor close window,maximixe ...etc i ha ccsm installed..even that is not working.
[15:46] <KentonS> jrib: I didn't check kern.log. I'll do that now. I've been searching ubuntu sites for *weeks* and found nothing.
[15:47] <NEWK> OK, I tried that suggestion and my mouse and keyboard still don't work at the logon screen
[15:47] <wos> bazhang: what was the command again?'
[15:47] <jrib> KentonS: not ubuntu sites, specifically the ubuntu bug tracker at bugs.ubuntu.com
[15:47] <bazhang> wos to connect to your AP?
[15:47] <ikonia> NEWK: thats ok, - lets step back a little, we know the mouse and keyboard are fine and that the issue is with Xorg
[15:47] <NEWK> right
[15:47] <NEWK> So what do I try next?
[15:47] <AdvoWork> in Firefox, if i goto file > Print > options I keep having to remove the header and footers, it wont save the settings. Any ideas please?
[15:47] <wos> bazhang: whatever command you last gave me
[15:48] <caribou|> hello
[15:48] <jrib> dragon1: do you have window decorations (window title and the minimize, maximize, and close buttons)?
[15:48] <dragon1>  jrib:no..
[15:48] <bazhang> wos, you need to connect to your router and make sure the essid is not hidden and that there is no mac filtering set.
[15:48] <wos> bazhang: ive done that
[15:49] <fosco__> dragon1: make sure window decoration plugin is checked in ccsm
[15:49] <wos> there are 2 good networks ive tried to connect to
[15:49] <jrib> dragon1: well, that's one of your issues.  You are missing window decorations
[15:49] <wos> both of them work in windows
[15:49] <fosco__> dragon1: install emerald also
[15:49] <bazhang> wos in terminal type iwconfig and paste.ubuntu.com with it
[15:49] <bazhang> wos then give us the url
[15:49] <wos> ok
[15:49] <GBGames> I was trying to demonstrate file privileges to someone, and I found the following:
[15:49] <GBGames> $ chown root:root rootfile.txt
[15:49] <GBGames> chown: changing ownership of `rootfile.txt': Operation not permitted
[15:49] <GBGames> Why can't i change file ownership?
[15:50] <jrib> GBGames: use sudo
[15:50] <fosco__> GBGames: use sudo
[15:50] <fosco__> ops! :)
[15:50] <GBGames> jrib: Why couldn't I change the file ownership without sudo?
[15:50] <thomasite> Hello. How do I get Cairo Dock? I'm using 8.10. Thanks!
[15:50] <GBGames> Or root privs?
[15:50] <caribou|> I try to connect to myself through telnet but i have this message : telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[15:50] <fosco__> thomasite: sudo apt-get install cairo-dock
[15:50] <Pici> GBGames: sudo chown root:root rootfile.txt
[15:50] <NEWK> ...hello? :(
[15:50] <wos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/70037/
[15:50] <jrib> GBGames: only superuser can chown
[15:51] <wos> bazhang:
[15:51] <ValentineXX> Hello help me about this from start step by step please http://paste.ubuntu.com/70036/
[15:51] <jrib> caribou|: why aren't you using ssh?
[15:51] <ValentineXX> NEWK: why sad :)
[15:51] <GBGames> jrib: Since when? Is this an Ubuntu thing, or have I just not done it in so long as a regular user?
[15:51] <bazhang> wos am reading
[15:51] <NEWK> Someone else was helping me but he/she is apparently not here anymore
[15:51] <wos> ok
[15:51] <Kudi> my ubuntu live cd wont insstall properly, it has a problem with partitioning the discs i think my cd is bad but this is all i can do right now, is there anything i can apt-get real quick to do this manualley
[15:52] <KentonS> jrib: I think I found the answer in kern.log. (How the heck would I have even thought to look there? ;-) ) It complains about an unknown option "_netdev". Yet that's a valid mount option. I don't get it.
[15:52] <x1250> GBGames, any user can chown, but only root can change owner, since if not, then you wouldn't be able to chown it afterwards to something else.
[15:52] <ValentineXX> NEWK: :-s don't worry others will help
[15:52] <caribou|> jrib, I'm trying to control an eggdrop
[15:52] <ikonia> NEWK: sorry I had to step away for a second
[15:52] <NEWK> Oh, sorry
[15:52] <NEWK> I sympathize. :P
[15:52] <bazhang> wos the command is sudo dhclient wlan0  paste.ubuntu.com with the output of that
[15:53] <ikonia> NEWK: I'm just trying to work out how to take this forward within X
[15:53] <jrib> caribou|: ok.  Why aren't you using ssh?  Or are you telnetting to eggdrop directly somehow?
[15:53] <Kudi>  my ubuntu live cd wont insstall properly, it has a problem with partitioning the discs i think my cd is bad but this is all i can do right now, is there anything i can apt-get real quick to do this manualley
[15:53] <dragon> jrib: if i need to restore to my previous version, what do i do..?
[15:53] <ikonia> Kudi are you using raid ?
[15:53] <jrib> dragon: previous version of what?
[15:53] <awakebyjava> I am looking some help with a difficult xubuntu install. Anyone available?
[15:53] <jrib> awakebyjava: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to answer you
[15:53] <omucuvaca> is there an open video converter for linux like, let's say canopus procoder? wihtout any editing capabilities
[15:53] <ikonia> awakebyjava: what's the problem
[15:53] <thomasite> fosco, and then after that? :D
[15:54] <IdleOne> Kudi: gparted ( volume has to be unmounted to partition )\
[15:54] <jrib> ValentineXX: the error message is pretty straightforward
[15:54] <awakebyjava> Okay, I am installing xubuntu on an old premio, and using the alternate install disc.
[15:54] <Zzeiss> awakebyjava: Well, what is it doing that is going wrong?
[15:54] <dragon> jrib:previous version..8.04..
[15:54] <awakebyjava> the install cannot detect or mount the cd rom
[15:54] <ValentineXX> jrib: so?
[15:54] <jrib> NEWK: I gave you several suggestions when you first asked your question.  Have you tried them?
[15:54] <wos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/70038/
[15:54] <Kudi> im not using raid
[15:54] <awakebyjava> it is booting the install form the disc, but cannot find the cdrom
[15:54] <jrib> ValentineXX: so I'm not sure how I can help you in more detail than what the error message says
[15:54] <NEWK> jrib: I think I did
[15:54] <caribou|> jrib, yes i don't know i know that i can control my eggdrop through telnet that's it :x
[15:55] <NEWK> jrib: I may have missed a few
[15:55] <bazhang> wos, you connected successfully
[15:55] <awakebyjava> i can find the cdrom with grep, but I dont know how to tell the install where it is
[15:55] <jrib> NEWK: Check bugs.ubuntu.com for a bug and file one if it's not there.  ctrl-alt-f1 will probably let you get to a tty and troubleshoot.  A workaround may be to revert to your old xorg.conf for input devices (grep 'man xorg.conf' for hal for the appropriate serverflag needed in intrepid).  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X may also be relevant
[15:55] <Zzeiss> awakebyjava: Hmmm...  Interesting.  Have you tried the option to "verify CDROM"?  You may have a bad burn...
[15:55] <wos> to the wifi network?
[15:55] <ValentineXX> jrib: how to put that line in smb.conf? tell me command of edit again, i put that line at the end of that document before.
[15:55] <awakebyjava> yah, it works just fine
[15:55] <bazhang> wos, yes
[15:55] <ikonia> ValentineXX: I've told you what to do
[15:55] <Kudi> do you guys think it will work
[15:55] <jrib> caribou|: what exactly are you typing?
[15:55] <SOURdiesel> my places menu seems to have reconfigured itself and now doesn't show the Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos folders...
[15:56] <wos> when i unplug my ethernet its not connected
[15:56] <ikonia> ValentineXX: change the ownership of the directory so you are the owner, use the chmod and chown commands as I said earlier
[15:56] <caribou|> jrib, telnet localhost 3333
[15:56] <ikonia> NEWK: not forgot about you
[15:56] <awakebyjava> oh, no, in the shell i dont have access to those commands, as i am running from the alternate cd for low ram
[15:56] <ValentineXX> ikonia: i dont understand them
[15:56] <NEWK> jrib: ctrl+alt+f1 does nothing
[15:56] <ikonia> ValentineXX: what don't you understand
[15:56] <awakebyjava> but I verified the disc before i begin the install and it works just fine
[15:56] <ValentineXX> ikonia: those commands and man chown or man chmod
[15:56] <lytefyre> im trying to update 804 to 810 and i get the same bug as 156070 (apt-cacher bug with proxy). I dont run apt-cacher but am behind a proxy and unable to upgrade.
[15:57] <ikonia> ValentineXX: if you type "man chown" it will give you help with the commands
[15:57] <wos> bazhang:  when i unplug my ethernet its not connected
[15:57] <dragon> jrib: how to rstore 8.04
[15:57] <awakebyjava> the install stops and shows me the installer main menu
[15:57] <bazhang> wos, you know you cant connect via ethernet and wifi to the same connection from a single computer, right?
[15:57] <ValentineXX> ikonia: yes those details are out of my brain reach
[15:57] <jrib> caribou|: pastebin: netstat -napt
[15:57] <ikonia> ValentineXX: it shows you an example of how to use it
[15:57] <Kudi> all i want to do i burn a disc really..is there anywayi can make the ubuntu live cd that i have boot up in the ram like puppy linux
[15:57] <awakebyjava> cannot get through the detect and mount cdrom
[15:57] <ikonia> ValentineXX: what do you "think" the command should be ?
[15:57] <jrib> dragon: you would need to reinstall
[15:57] <ali1234> about the nvidia legacy thing. it looks like there is an updated driver in the repos now. am i going to have difficulty installing it with no working display? (because that's what will happen with nv for me)
[15:58] <ValentineXX> ikonia: i check again.
[15:58] <KentonS> jrib: (Or anyone else for that matter ;-) ) is "_netdev" a valid option when mounting remote shares in fstab?
[15:58] <awakebyjava> but in the shell i can find the cd drive with dmesg | grep -i cd-rom
[15:58] <wos> bazhang: but i said "when i _unplug_ my ethernet its not connected"
[15:58] <GBGames> x1250: I don't understand what you mean by "any user can chown but only root can change owner". What is chown for other than that?
[15:58] <SOURdiesel> my places menu seems to have reconfigured itself and now doesn't show the Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos folders...
[15:58] <bazhang> wos, so you need to try without your ethernet connected in the first place
[15:59] <wos> ok im going to try that. ill brb
[15:59] <x1250> GBGames, changing group?
[15:59] <|neon|> i been trying to get my deskto psettings to stay for a while now, when i changed my settings everything works ok, however when i reboot the settings revert back to default, i tried session manager without any luck , any suggestions thx
[15:59] <GBGames> x1250: Also doesn't let me do that.
[15:59] <wos> bazhang: do you mean restart with no ethernet connected?
[15:59] <jrib> KentonS: don't know anything about cifs, but _netdev doesn't seem to be in the man page
[16:00] <caribou|> jrib, http://pastebin.com/d1888ff70
[16:00] <jrib> GBGames: it has always been the case as long as I can remember that only root/superuser can chown
[16:00] <wos> bazhang:
[16:00] <bazhang> wos, you can just restart networking without having to reboot, but yes take out the ethernet (or disable in networkmanager)
[16:00] <wos> how do i restart networking
[16:00] <awakebyjava> I was getting some help from someone a while ago, but he had to go and left me hanging.
[16:00] <genii> jrib: Any user can chown their own stuff.
[16:01] <jrib> genii: really?  how?
[16:01] <genii> jrib: If you already own it you can chown it to some other user. But no going back after that of course
[16:01] <GBGames> genii: That's what I thought, but I can't seem to do so.
[16:01] <KentonS> jrib: It's in the mount man page. The fstab man page just says to enter whatever options are appropriate for the type of mount you're doing.

[16:02] <Omar87> How do I configure my Bluetooth?
[16:02] <wos> bazhang whats the name of my wireless network is it eth0?
[16:02] <x1250> IdleOne, avidemux or cinelerra maybe?
[16:02] <bazhang> wos eth0 is ethernet
[16:02] <jrib> KentonS: ah, don't know then
[16:02] <jrib> genii: there are good reasons a user can't chown a file
[16:02] <Jodoog> Hi :) I know it was planned for 2.6.28 in order to get Lenovo's APS working without need for a patch...but has 2.6.28-rc4 put general disc protection directly into the libata driver already? Thanks...
[16:02] <wos> bazhang: which one is the wifi?
[16:03] <KentonS> OK, jrib. I'll continue snooping around. But at least you've helped me narrow down the search. Thanks a lot!
[16:03] <qdii> i can't use iwconfig, ... it's not on my computer and I need it, how can i do
[16:03] <awakebyjava> The strange thing is that the cd drive is a scsi cd-rom drive, and it is recognized by the installer, but it is like it cannot find it when it looks for it.
[16:03] <genii> jrib: Weird, yer right it's not letting me. I'm sure it used to be different.

[16:03] <Neodemi> how do i swap mounted iso files in ubuntu, ive been trying to install a program, but it requires the image to e changed
[16:03] <jrib> genii: If I could, then I'd suid an executable, chown it to root and run it :)
[16:03] <Omar87> How do I turn on my Bluetooth?
[16:03] <SOURdiesel> my places menu seems to have reconfigured itself and now doesn't show the Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos folders...these folders are now in Bookmarks.  what changed?
[16:03] <gizmo__> Hi. Does 'rdesktop' use encryption by default or do you have to give it a switch?
[16:03] <Neodemi> keeps telling me its busy
[16:03] <genii> Probably something security to prevent regular users from elevating scripts, yeah
[16:04] <ali1234> IdleOne: for mpeg2 i use dvbcut

[16:09] <converge> whats a good torrent program with gui?
[16:09] <caribou|> jrib, no i meant that you see that it's an eggdrop issue because you've seen from the pastebin that "eggdrop" is not listening !?
[16:09] <jrib> caribou|: right
[16:10] <Omar87> Can anybody tell me how do I configure Bluetooth in Ubuntu 8.10?

[16:10] <Omar87> Please?
[16:10] <coens> salut il y a des français$

[16:13] <x1250> DB42, you want to reinstall?
[16:13] <DB42> x1250: no, just download the deb
[16:13] <Omar87> Help configuring Bluetooth in 8.10? Please?
[16:14] <DB42> x1250: you must give apt-get another option besides -d
[16:14] <bazhang> wos1, you have to physically remove the ethernet cable or disable ethernet via networkmanager to get the wifi connection
[16:14] <x1250> try using apt-get with -d option, or install aptitude and aptitude download pkg.
[16:14] <wos1> bazhang: i already did

[16:17] <DB42> jrib: is there an apt channel ? :)

[16:20] <dragon> jrib: i managed to get window decorator.... but now if i try visual effects to extra its displayed that desktops effects cannot be enabled..how to enable them..
[16:20]  * DBO looks at x1250 kind of funny
[16:20] <bazhang> wos1, you just said that you are now connected via a windows computer (ie the router has no problem)
[16:20] <x1250> oh, DB42 went off, sorry DBO :P
[16:20] <wos1> bazhang: yes thats correct
[16:21] <chuckmoney> emilien_: sounds like a resolution problem maybe.  are you sure that GNOME isn't trying to run at a resolution higher than your monitor will support?
[16:21] <ricsi-pontaz> disconnect
[16:22] <emilien_> chuckmoney,  no im not sure , however have not touched screen resolution have how ever played with compiz could this be problem ?
[16:23] <wos1> bazhang what should i do ?
[16:24] <chuckmoney> emilien_: possibly.  try running a "failsafe gnome" session and see if everything loads okay.  also, if you can get a terminal to load when your screen goes blank, try running "metacity --replace"
[16:24] <Omar87> I need help configuring my Bluetooth, please?
[16:24] <Omar87> Any help?
[16:24] <chuckmoney> emilien_: if neither of those fixes it, the issue is resolution related.
[16:24] <wos1> bazhang: ?
[16:24] <dragon> I am not able to change visual effects to extra...its being displayed that desktop effects cant be enabled..how to enable it..?
[16:24] <emilien_> chuckmoney, tired fail safe gnome same error , gnome terminal work tho using it now
[16:24] <sudobash> hey on AMD Power Monitor it says each core is running at 1Ghz each but it has power saving on... How can I turn Power saver off and run each core at optimal speed? I did it on my pc but this is my girlfriends and its been upgraded to 8.10 from 8.04...
[16:25] <philippe> Hello. After playing with USB devices (keyboard and mouse..), after restarting, my resolution is not good anymore in Ubuntu 8.10. I can't select it (1280x1024) in the nvidia setting panel, it disapear. Also, I have uninstall and reinstall the nvidia driver with no effect. What can I do? thank you
[16:25] <g_> hi
[16:25] <bazhang> wos1, if your router is working, and there is no mac filtering nor hidden essid, and the ethernet is well and truly disconnected from the box (after restarting networking) then that pastebin indicates a successful wifi connection
[16:25] <Omar87> Any help in configuring my bluetooth, please?
[16:25] <sudobash> I already check Power Management Preferences
[16:25] <cmdrtebok> hey i tried to follow the multimedia thread on the forums but after messing it up once at the java eula and trying it again, flash doesnt work. I even tried to install the deb from adobe
[16:26] <bazhang> wos1, if you are trying something different then it is a different story altogether
[16:26] <emilien_> chuckmoney, where can i run metacilty replace i can't acces terminal neither ctr-alt-F1
[16:26] <wos1> bazhang oh the ethernet wasnt disconnected at the time of the command
[16:26] <wos1> what was the command again
[16:26] <chuckmoney> sudobash: go to a terminal and run "sudo dprk-reconfigure gnome-applets", answer yes, and then add the CPU Frequency Monitor applet to your GNOME panel.  you can then click the applet and it will allow you to choose "performance mode"
[16:26] <IdleOne> !flash > sudobash
[16:26] <darkvertex> Omar87: bluetooth should work without configuration. At least on Hardy
[16:27] <bazhang> wos1, well then that would be an issue.
[16:27] <Omar87> darkvertex: Somehow it doesn't work with me, it didn't even work with me in Hardy either.
[16:27] <chuckmoney> emilien_: if you can't get a GNOME terminal working it's irrelevant.  running metacity-replace from a different virtual terminal won't help.  it has to be run from your GNOME session terminal, i.e. tty7
[16:27] <wos> what was the command again?
[16:27] <ha6i> can some one help me to enable desktop effects...?
[16:27] <bazhang> wos which command
[16:28] <sudobash> dprk-reconfigure ???
[16:28] <wos> the last command you instructed me to input
[16:28] <chuckmoney> sudobash: sorry, that should be dpkg-reconfigure
[16:28] <bazhang> ha6i, go to appearances visual effects
[16:28] <darkvertex> Omar87: what kind of adapter is it? what is the problem exactly?
[16:28] <Omar87> darkvertex: The problem seems to be with all sorts of wireless connections actually, not only Bluetooth.
[16:28] <emilien_> chuckmoney, i can't get to tty i tried , screen get stuck
[16:28] <bazhang> wos, you mean sudo dhclient wlan0 ? why not write it down?
[16:28] <KentonS> jrib: After a bunch of "man"ing of various things I discovered that _netdev is only valid with NFS. I couldn't find any information on how to tell fstab to wait 'til the network is up before attempting to do a cifs mount. Bummer!
[16:29] <ha6i>  bazhang:thats not working. "desktop effects cant be enabled" is displayed...
[16:29] <wos> brb'
[16:29] <nibsa1242> Opening up a web page in firefox with flash on it ( such as youtube ) kills all sound on my computer how do I fix?
[16:29] <bazhang> ha6i, then make sure that the correct 3d driver is installed for your card
[16:29] <Omar87> darkvertex: Somehow, wireless, in general doesn't work with me. However, when I hit "ifconfig", I find all the wireless drivers.
[16:29] <chuckmoney> emilien_: well, I have to go do some work, but aside from spending some quality time with a rescue cd, sounds like your only option is to either reinstall, or delete your profile folder and start it over from scratch
[16:29] <ha6i> bazhang:how do i do that...?
[16:30] <emilien_> chuckmoney, damn thanks anyway
[16:30] <bazhang> ha6i, go to hardware drivers and check that they are enabled and in use
[16:30] <chuckmoney> emilien_: if you run "rm -rf /home/yourname/.*" in any terminal it should remove only the settings folders, so you won't lose your actual documents.  that may help but you'll have to reconfigure all your programs
[16:31] <emilien_> chuckmoney, ok thnaks
[16:31] <nibsa1242> emilien what is your issues?
[16:31] <darkvertex> Omar87: Did you get any ipaddress on the wifi?
[16:31] <sudobash> sweet thats awesome
[16:31] <Omar87> darkvertex: It happened with me once and once only, that the network icon showed up and telling that it a wireless connection was detected, but never happened again.
[16:32] <Omar87> darkvertex: I'm not sure what you're talking about.
[16:34] <dundel> i'm trying to add my second domain on dyndns.com, and it needs to be listening on port 82, but i can't use ip:port on dyndns? is there a different way?
[16:34] <x-kent>  hi, can someone recommend me a simple C environment like old versions of "anjuta IDE" ? I need something without all this "projects" and stuff, just make 1.c file and be able to "compile&run" with 1 key...
[16:34] <erUSUL> chuckmoney: pretyy dasngerous command there... what about gpg and ssh keys ?? evolution mail ???? all gone
[16:34] <scientes> how would i transition my home aprtition to be encrypted
[16:34] <scientes> ?
[16:34] <Omar87> Wireless help? Please?
[16:34] <scientes> also, why does ctrl-alt-v not work anymore in gnome-terminal?
[16:34] <darkvertex> Omar87: wifi and bluetooth are different altogether. bluetooth doesn't show in ifconfig
[16:35] <Omar87> darkvertex: I know.
[16:35] <Omar87> darkvertex: Is there a command I could use to turn my Bluetooth on?
[16:35] <chuckmoney> erUSUL: well his situation is pretty serious.  He could try a hunt-and-peck approach by just deleting .gnome or .gtk but at the end of the day he would end up missing some settings and keeping others.  often losing program settings is better than not being sure what is configured and what isn't.
[16:36] <MTecknology> I'm trying to build my system up from a cli install. I'm having a very hard time figuring out how to get the hotkeys working. I grabbed all my hotkey files from a live cd session but I can't figure out how to make them work. Anybody know what I need to do to get it working?
[16:36] <chuckmoney> erUSUL: since he gets a login screen his xorg config is fine, meaning it's his GNOME config.  GNOME config is hard as hell to edit unless you can get at the least a failsafe session
[16:37] <ha6i> bazhang: though the drivers are activated i am not able to enable effects....
[16:37] <darkvertex> Omar87: as I'm still on hardy, bluetooth doesn't need any command. I use a USB adaptor kind of bluetooth. what's yours?
[16:37] <erUSUL> chuckmoney: loosing all your mail messages is serious too. and your ssh and gpg keys lost is a pretty serious problem too depending on the use you give to them...
[16:37] <nibsa1242> can someone point me to a workaround for flash / pulse audio conflict
[16:37] <chuckmoney> erUSUL: since he can't, simply deleting the config is the best he can do.
[16:37] <wos> bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/70055/
[16:37] <Omar87> darkvertex: It's buit-in, I'm using a Toshiba Tecra laptop.
[16:38] <chuckmoney> erUSUL: I agree, but unless there's a magical file the guy can remove that will delete all his GNOME resolution settings, he has no choice.
[16:38] <erUSUL> chuckmoney: i'm not against deleting config files i'm against given a command that also deletes inmportant peoples data like his/her *mail*
[16:38] <bazhang> wos, that shows a connection
[16:38] <erUSUL> chuckmoney: not his/her mail settings but the actual *messages*
[16:39] <darkvertex> Omar87: please make sure bluetooth service is activated in System->Admin->Services
[16:39] <chuckmoney> erUSUL: what command would you propose?
[16:40] <amikrop> Hello. How can I convert and FLV to an MP3?
[16:40] <amikrop> Not using a website's services, but using an Ubuntu program.
[16:40] <erUSUL> chuckmoney: something more fine grained... or perhaps just telling the user to backup evolution (if he uses it) and/or his ssh/gpg data (and other important data tha may be in ~/.* files)
[16:40] <nibsa1242> can someone point me to a workaround for flash / pulse audio conflict
[16:41] <Omar87> darkvertex: It's enabled.
[16:41] <chuckmoney> amikrop: not sure, since FLV is a video format and MP3 is an audio format.  maybe you could just use a good old fashioned analog loop and audacity?
[16:41] <AdvoWork> are there no decent pdf creators/writers for ubuntu? All i want is to be able to file > print > mypdf, but give it a name too
[16:41] <amikrop> chuckmoney: OK. So, an FLV to an MP4?
[16:41] <wos> can anyone help me with a wireless internet connection? it shows that its connected but i cant access any web pages. I connect to the network fine on another pc.
[16:41] <JunTao> I'm trying to use patition magic to resize my C: Windows drive so i can create a new partition but it gives me an error.....anyyone can help me why I get this error? Does it have to do with Ubuntu? error 1529: Information mismatch in directory
[16:42] <Omar87> darkvertex: The networks icon, the one that shows the available connections, doesn't show up with me, I wonder why.
[16:42] <chuckmoney> erUSUL: sounds fair.  could we agree that /home/username/.g* would be safe to remove since that would most likely only cover gnome or GTK files?
[16:42] <erUSUL> chuckmoney: or instead of removing the ~/.* files just moving then to ~/backup/ folder
[16:42] <Omar87> aboSamoor: are you Arabian?
[16:42] <darkvertex> Omar87: To let your other devices discover the bluetooth in your PC, install and execute gnome-bluetooth. The icon should show then
[16:42] <wos> can anyone help me with a wireless internet connection? it shows that its connected but i cant access any web pages. I connect to the network fine on another pc.
[16:43] <chuckmoney> amikrop: much better question :)  I believe you could use ffmpeg to convert that.
[16:43] <erUSUL> chuckmoney: well yes except for ~/.gnupg/ ...
[16:43] <darkvertex> Omar87: On the other hand, if you only want to transfer files to your cellphone etc, use nautilus send-to command
[16:43] <chuckmoney> amikrop: ffmpeg is a terminal tool but I don't know what the GUI equivelent would be.  but ffmpeg could convert a rabbit into a turtle and then into a greyhound :)
[16:43] <Omar87> uh-huh
[16:44] <seronis> wos:  usb or internal wireless (i've never got usb to work)  and which ubuntu version ?
[16:44] <wos> seronis: usb and 8.10
[16:44] <Omar87> darkvertex: is there a command to find the nearby devices from the terminal?
[16:45] <amikrop> chuckmoney: OK, thanks. :-)
[16:45] <darkvertex> Omar87: I believe it is hcitool scan
[16:45] <seronis> wos: usb is hit or miss on whether it works.  i think we're both just out of luck on that
[16:45] <wos> oohhhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! :((
[16:45] <chuckmoney> erUSUL: well...sounds to me like a hunt-and-peck-for-the-right-file approach is the only option that wouldn't cause much data loss.  on the other hand, my assumption would be that any user who is actively using gnupg (and thus is both more savvy than average and security-conscious) would also be doing somewhat regular backups.
[16:46] <Omar87> darkvertex: I just installed gnome-bluetooth, how do I use it?
[16:46] <erUSUL> chuckmoney: fair enough
[16:46] <seronis> wos:  but with 8.04 my internal had issue too..  might try my approach to solve
[16:46] <chuckmoney> erUSUL: certainly just an assumption though
[16:46] <wos> seronis: what approach ?
[16:46] <d0htem> anyone know why md5 has been removed from sleuthkit
[16:46] <darkvertex> Omar87: find it under Applications->Accessories
[16:47] <seronis> wos:  manual config.   after it locates your router switch from dhcp to static and manually enter an IP.   let it connect with that IP  (still no internet at this point) then switch back to dhcp
[16:47] <seronis> for me that is the only way 8.04 would work with my highly generic internal wifi
[16:47] <gavagai> Is there a difference between "reformatting your hard drive" and "writing zeros to your entire hard drive"?
[16:47] <chuckmoney> d0htem: nope.  sounds like a mighty strange choice seeing as how prevalent MD5 is.
[16:47] <LjL> gavagai: yes.
[16:47] <wos> what ip though?
[16:47] <nibsa1242> is anyone w/  ibex able to watch youtube videos with flash-non-free?
[16:47] <genii> gavagai: Yes
[16:47] <gavagai> LjL, i thought so, thanks
[16:47] <nibsa1242> gavagai: yes, very much so
[16:47] <LjL> gavagai: "formatting" means writing a filesystem onto a drive or partition.
[16:47] <d0htem> chunkmonkey sucks , now i gotta use md5deep
[16:47] <d0htem> :/
[16:47] <LjL> gavagai: writing zeros means wiping it.
[16:47] <seronis> choose the same IP that dhcp gives you for all it matters.. just choose one thats legal
[16:48] <Omar87> darkvertex: my cellphone still doesn't detect anything..
[16:48] <gavagai> i have a dell laptop with this retarded 'media direct' thing and you have to write zeroes to the drive to get rid of it, otherwise the media direct button can destroy your partition table after reformatting
[16:48] <savage-> Is there a way to extract a tgz to disk and have it automatically rename the files that it's extracting by appending some unique identifier to the end (e.g., current time) ?
[16:48] <nibsa1242> gavagai: writing 0's is much better for making sure everything is completely off... I once had an odd problem that was only resolved by writing zeros and would not resolve with a simple format
[16:48] <d0htem> gavagi i believe ext2 writes to 0
[16:49] <darkvertex> Omar87: lets do it the other way round. there is a bluez-utils package installed. it has hcitool, rfcomm, sdptool command-line tools that you can use to discover other devices
[16:50] <Omar87> darkvertex: When I tried hcitool scan, it said that there was no such device.
[16:51] <admin_masu3701> can someone tell me how to install wireless driver for 8.10
[16:51] <admin_masu3701> i updated from 8.4
[16:51] <LjL> !wireless | admin_masu3701
[16:52] <darkvertex> Omar87: if you do sudo lshw can you see your bluetooth listed?
[16:53] <sum-it> i am getting a strange problem my xserver doesnt start and gives this error FPE: "/usr/share/fonts/X11/MISC" refcount is 2, should be 1: fixing.
[16:53] <mikethk> hi, what is the best alternativ to msn on ubuntu?
[16:54] <sum-it> i am getting a strange problem my xserver doesnt start and gives this error FPE: "/usr/share/fonts/X11/MISC" refcount is 2, should be 1: fixing.

[16:54] <darkvertex> mikethk: pidgin
[16:54] <emilien> need help ubuntu ibex , back screen of death after login
[16:54] <Bittarman> mikethk: you can use about 10 different services with pidgeon, including msn
[16:54] <mikethk> darkvertex, but can i us my msn account on it?
[16:54] <sum-it> i am getting a strange problem my xserver doesnt start and gives this error FPE: "/usr/share/fonts/X11/MISC" refcount is 2, should be 1: fixing.
[16:55] <mikethk> Bittarman, thx.
[16:55] <Omar87> Here is the entire output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/70067/
[16:55] <nibsa1242> emilien: did the live cd work?
[16:55] <Omar87> darkvertex: here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/70067/
[16:55] <darkvertex> mikethk: you can. pidgin support msn as well as other protocols
[16:55] <paul68> !patience |sum-it
[16:55] <nibsa1242> emilien: or did you do an upgrade in place install?
[16:55] <seronis> mikethk: personally i recommend using Trillian, better file transfer support IMHO
[16:55] <Bittarman> sum-it: polling isn't nice. but it sounds like you have a bad file in /usr/share/fonts/X11/MISC
[16:55] <JuJuBee> I have ATI Radeon 9700 with dual head display.  Anybody know why I cannot set my external monitor (not laptop display) to 1280x1024 ?  The Monitor is capable of 1280x1024.
[16:56] <PeskyJ> I'm trying to connect to my ubuntu machine using Xming, and I see the login/welcome screen, but when I log in the screen just goes that ubuntu flavour of reddy-beige, does anyone have any ideas what's going wrong?
[16:56] <Omar87> darkvertex: I can't seem to find there.
[16:56] <darkvertex> Omar87: let me check
[16:57] <sum-it> bitterman:  i m sorry for that. so how can i remove this file?
[16:57] <emilien> nibsa1242:  when i installed it it did , not tried live cd again as can't burn cd =(
[16:57] <mikethk> seronis, oki but i try pidgin out see if its good enogh for me
[16:57] <nibsa1242> emilien: how did you install? new install? upgrade in place? clean install-upgrade?
[16:58] <emilien> nibsa1242:  did a fresh ibex install about 2 weeks ago
[16:58] <kri> hi i have updated to the latest build of audacious, but now i installed mplayer and it removed libmp3lame-dev and libmp3lame0, can i undo this installation of mplayer so my audicous gets its plugin that need those codecs?
[16:58] <Finalphase> Hello, I need some help =P
[16:59] <nibsa1242> emilien: and it worked fine until today?
[16:59] <emilien> nibsa1242:  yes was working like a charm
[16:59] <Omar87> emilien: do you have a problem in burning cd's?
[16:59] <|MUSE|> hey, this is both ubuntu and python related issue that I need help with. My compiz crashes every time I use the help() funtion in a interactive python console. This is what I get: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/90756/
[16:59] <Finalphase> Im trying to install through a USB Flash Drive, used UNetBootIn to prep the flash drive / install the files, but when I boot from it and go install, it loads /casper/something and /casper something then says, invalid compressed format(err=2) / Kernel Panic - Not syncing VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,1)
[16:59] <MTecknology> I'm trying to build my system up from a cli install. I'm having a very hard time figuring out how to get the hotkeys working. I grabbed all my hotkey files from a live cd session but I can't figure out how to make them work. Anybody know what I need to do to get it working?
[16:59] <nibsa1242> emilien: install anything / update anything recently?
[17:00] <qowao> hey is it a bad idea to connect to some intranet via vpn form a standard ubuntu install, are there firewall issues and stuff? like im easy prey?
[17:00] <emilien> Omar87:  no , its been installed for about 2 weeks
[17:00] <Finalphase> I tried booting with noapic / acpi=off and it still didn't help
[17:01] <emilien> nibsa1242:  in all honesty can't really rember could have done
[17:01] <andycr> |MUSE|: It looks like Python's help() function is -relaunching- compiz, for some reason
[17:02] <Omar87> emilien: Same here, but I'm facing a serious problem in burning CD's with Brasero and K3B, here's the bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294480
[17:02] <|MUSE|> ya, that is exactly what it is doing, but why? And how do I stop it?
[17:02] <Omar87> darkvertex: r u still there?
[17:02] <Finalphase> Could anybody throw some help my way =D
[17:02] <nibsa1242> emilien: if you have a separate /home partition you could just do another install... just tell the installer the mount point for your /home and don't format your /home . You'll have to manually add users, but that is trivial.
[17:02] <darkvertex> Omar87: yes, just wondering about the network DISABLED line there
[17:02] <kri> i did configure the latest build of audacious yesterday and today  ive got it to run with icecast2 plugin+server... now i installed  mplayer and that intsallation removed both libmp3lame-dev and  liblame0.. can i undo that installation of mplayer?
[17:03] <IchigoMorino> Anyone know what happened to "System → Administration → Shared Folders" that was in older versions of Ubuntu?
[17:03] <andycr> kri: Apt-get remove
[17:03] <leohartx> why i cant configure my wired connection in network configuration ? every thing turn back to default when i finish configure my "auto eth0", i'm using "sudo pppoeconf" now and it's relative slow (slower than when i use wired connection)
[17:04] <Omar87> darkvertex: Oh boy.. how come...?
[17:04] <ubiquitus> hello, I need to start ubuntu 8.10 desktop only with shell and have the possibility to start Gnome only when I need it, how can I do that?
[17:04] <KEBA> Hi there
[17:04] <darkvertex> Omar87: there is a *network DISABLED line near the end. are you sure you have enabled your network? this is peculiar
[17:05] <Pici> ubiquitus: sudo update-rc.d gdm remove     will stop gdm from starting when you boot.
[17:05] <KEBA> i dont know where, but i think i configurated, that i ever use the Mac4lin-theme... do you know where probally?
[17:05] <leohartx> why i cant configure my wired connection in network configuration ? every thing turn back to default when i finish configure my "auto eth0", i'm using "sudo pppoeconf" now and it's relative slow (slower than when i use wired connection)
[17:05] <Omar87> I think it's the same patch that was released to deal with the e1000e problem temporarily.
[17:05] <kri> andycr: yeah, but will libmp3lame-dev and libmp3lame0 get back (and the plugin for audacious)?
[17:05] <NekroJakub> How can I make make my cursor consistent across all applications? I changed it to black but when I cursor over Opera for example it changes to default.
[17:05] <emilien> nibsa1242:  if i boot into recovery mood and from root startx gui acctualy starts  even though have dead mouse and keyboard
[17:05] <Omar87> darkvertex: Yeah, I saw it.
[17:05] <emilien> nibsa1242:  coule be xorg related ? not sure ?
[17:05] <coiax> Hi. I'm having some problems with my x-server not starting for other users
[17:05] <Omar87> darkvertex: I'm not so sure though...
[17:06] <Finalphase> Could anybody help me: >	Im trying to install through a USB Flash Drive, used UNetBootIn to prep the flash drive / install the files, but when I boot from it and go install, it loads /casper/something and /casper something then says, invalid compressed format(err=2) / Kernel Panic - Not syncing VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,1)
[17:06] <ubiquitus> Pici: great suggestion! thank's and if I need to start Gnome? just put xstart command?
[17:06] <paul68> Omar87: what version are you on?
[17:06] <hechu> hi there, did anybody has experience about create a ubuntu USB startup disk in a 8G flash disk?
[17:06] <nibsa1242> emilien: its doubtful something would have changed your xorg file
[17:06] <Pici> ubiquitus: just: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start
[17:06] <darkvertex> Omar87: not sure about what?
[17:06] <Omar87> darkvertex: but one thing I'm sure about is that it's very weird..
[17:06] <IchigoMorino> ubiquitus: Remove "gdm" from your enabled boot scripts, and then run "/etc/init.d/gdm start" when you want to start it.
[17:06] <ironfoot_495> hello everyone I'm having trouble getting my localhost to function correctly. The problem is I try to bring up the local host and I get Not Found The requested URL / was not found on this server. I've looked at -> http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_userdir.html#userdir but I'm not getting an understanding. Can someone help me to understand why I can't bring up my home page on the localhost?
[17:06] <ljuwaidah> hi
[17:06] <leohartx> why i cant configure my wired connection in network configuration ? every thing turn back to default when i finish configure my "auto eth0", i'm using "sudo pppoeconf" now and it's relative slow (slower than when i use wired connection), how do i fix it ?
[17:07] <Omar87> darkvertex: I mean I'm not what is it disabled.
[17:07] <ljuwaidah> quick question: can install a 64 bit ubuntu on a 32 bit machine?
[17:07] <emilien> nibsa1242: realy scatching my head to why this happened
[17:07] <ljuwaidah> *can i
[17:07] <nibsa1242> emilien: that changes very infrequently... and normally everything that changes it would make a backup
[17:07] <Pici> ljuwaidah: no
[17:07] <ljuwaidah> Pici: it won't work?
[17:07] <coiax> Other users can't switch user whilst I'm logged in, because the x-server won't start. Can anyone help?
[17:07] <paul68> Omar87: what linux version are you running at this point? 8.10?
[17:07] <Pici> ljuwaidah: No. If your processor does not support 64 bits, then the OS is not going to install.
[17:08] <axisys_> how do I encrypt a folder.. i heard it is built in with ubuntu 8.10
[17:08] <Omar87> paul68: Yeah, it's 8.10
[17:08] <NekroJakub> How can I make make my cursor consistent across all applications? I changed it to black but when I cursor over Opera for example it changes to default.
[17:08] <andycr> kri: Not sure. You could reinstall them manually
[17:08] <nibsa1242> emilien: things happen sometimes, normally its the result of an update or something you personally have changed...
[17:08] <IchigoMorino> Anyone know what happened to "System → Administration → Shared Folders" that was in older versions of Ubuntu? And what is the package name of that graphical utility?
[17:08] <ironfoot_495> I want get this fixed so I can continue to apply lamp
[17:08] <paul68> Omar87: what is the driver of your wireless broadcom?
[17:08] <ljuwaidah> i thought it'll install but will use whatever the processor offers
[17:08] <kri> andycr: yeah and then i have to compile audacious and install it again
[17:08] <testola> Cant handle a dual layer iso.. how can i burn it. tried nero for linux. Tried brasero.. any tips?
[17:08] <ljuwaidah> 'cause my friend wants Linux and I have only 64 bit versions :(
[17:08] <Omar87> paul68: how can I make sure?
[17:08] <Pici> ljuwaidah: No... There are distinct installers for either 64 or 32 bit systems.
[17:09] <Hector> hello
[17:09] <nibsa1242> emilien: there are other reasons for the system to not boot, you should use recovery mode or live cd to examine your logs
[17:09] <leohartx> why i cant configure my wired connection in network configuration ? every thing turn back to default when i finish configure my "auto eth0", i'm using "sudo pppoeconf" now and it's relative slow (slower than when i use wired connection), how do i fix it ?
[17:09] <fosco_> ljuwaidah 64bits software wont run on a 32bits system
[17:09] <Hector> ahh i want to know how to hack into networks on mac
[17:09] <paul68> Omar87: type lspci in the terminal? and check what name you have under network
[17:09] <ljuwaidah> Pici: Yeah, i know, but my system is 64 bit so that's the only thing i have, however, i do have 32 bit version of 8.04
[17:09] <Pici> ljuwaidah: I'm talking about the Ubuntu CDs, Iif youre asking about another distro then I don't know.
[17:09] <ljuwaidah> i might give her that tom
[17:10] <ljuwaidah> does 8.04 have that hardware detector thing?
[17:10] <ljuwaidah> 'cause i found that pretty useful
[17:10] <Pici> Hector: This is the Ubuntu support channel, we do not support such things here.
[17:10] <emilien> nibsa1242: ok how can i look at logs ?
[17:10] <coiax> Also, how do you set up encrypted folders for existing users in 8.10?
[17:10] <chadwik> leohartx: thats a bug
[17:10] <Hector> o
[17:10] <emilien> nibsa1242: im in recovery root terminal
[17:10] <Hector> i didnt know
[17:10] <Hector> i am only 13 now
[17:10] <darkvertex> OOmar87: mine look like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/70071/
[17:10] <Finalphase> Could somebody please help me Just send a private msg
[17:11] <nibsa1242> emilien: had one problem one time not booting due to excessively large logs... best thing to do is look at the logs and see if they tell you what is going on
[17:11] <ljuwaidah> Hector: that explains your question ;)
[17:11] <Omar87> paul68: there: http://paste.ubuntu.com/70072/
[17:11] <IchigoMorino> Anyone know what happened to "System → Administration → Shared Folders" that was in older versions of Ubuntu? And what is the package name of that graphical utility?
[17:11] <fosco_> finalbeta_, /msg nick message
[17:11] <leohartx> chadwik: is there any solution ?
[17:11] <darkvertex> Omar87: mine look like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/70071/ . Yet, are connecting to the net through your network adapter?
[17:12] <darkvertex> *you
[17:12] <jmarsden> Finalphase: Please read http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html and then ask your question
[17:12] <ljuwaidah> I would have given him esr's article :P
[17:13] <Omar87> darkvertex: somehow, yes, I'm using my own ethernet card, the one built-in in my laptop. I got no other one actually.
[17:13] <tsedreyt> hey does anyone know anything about booting gOS off a usb?
[17:13] <Neaai> When mentioned that 32bit software and 64bit software usually don't cross-run... does this mean that there are 'parallell repositories' containing the same software but compiled for each architecture?
[17:13] <esr> ljuwaidah: you rang?
[17:13] <jmarsden> ljuwaidah: I used to do that, maybe I'm getting kinder as I get older :-)
[17:13] <Finalphase> jmarsden: I did, and i'm supplying all the information and I am not spamming either
[17:13] <ljuwaidah> esr: Is that you?
[17:13] <esr> Yes.
[17:13] <barefoot> ty for help, turns out .xsession wasnt +x
[17:13] <emilien> nibsa1242: ok thanks which one should i look at ? X.org , User.log ? any thinkings to look out for ?
[17:13] <Omar87> darkvertex: unless we're talking about my other pc ofcourse.
[17:13] <chadwik> leohartx: theres a few things to try on: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/259214
[17:13] <ljuwaidah> WOW!
[17:13] <sum-it> how i can make a local repository of my downloaded packages?
[17:14] <nibsa1242> emilien: look at all of them, for the most recent entries... something will probably pop out at you
[17:14] <PeskyJ> my 8-year old daughter thinks ubuntu is waaay better than windows
[17:14] <ljuwaidah> esr: i finally got to talk to you :) I'm a big fan, your article is the reason why i started using linux
[17:14] <esr> :-)
[17:15] <darkvertex> Omar87: weird. have you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup ?
[17:15] <bicyclist> pesky: your daughter sure as a very good taste regarding os ;)
[17:15] <ljuwaidah> esr: I hope you don't mind this: http://www.ljuwaidah.org/ :D
[17:15] <paul68> Omar87: do you see by any chance under system > administration > hardware drivers your card listed?
[17:15] <tsedreyt> can anoyone help with a few gOS questions, or is there another chat I should goto?
[17:16] <Paddy_EIRE> tsedreyt: yeah this is for ubuntu only
[17:16] <tsedreyt> I figured since it was ubunt based thing, it would be the same
[17:16] <leohartx> chadwik: oh, my network manager applet disappeared , where is it ?
[17:17] <ddfire> hi
[17:17] <chadwik> leohartx: try right clicking the panel and choose 'add to panel'
[17:17] <ddfire> hello to the ubuntu comunity
[17:17] <esr> ljuwaidah: I don't mind.  Normally I'm opposed to black bsckgrounds, but you maintaned a high luminance contrast and chose a good scrisp font.
[17:17] <isaacj87>  hey guys quick question...I looked on crucial and it says my RAM on my laptop maxs out to 2gb, what happens if I put more? Secondly, I already have 1.25 gb in there...if I max it out to 2gb will I even see/feel the difference?
[17:17] <PeskyJ> so um.. any Xming users? I can connect to the login screen but then once I log in my desktop never materialises, any ideas?
[17:18] <ddfire> wich is better use ubuntu 8.04 server or ubuntu 8.10 server ?
[17:18] <fosco_> ddelec24, try both and decide
[17:18] <ljuwaidah> esr: Thank you :) BTW, what are you up to now? I can't seem to find anything about your latest updates on your website
[17:18] <leohartx> chadwik: it disappeared from that list too :(
[17:18] <Omar87> darkvertex: Yeah, but this won't work since, my laptop can't detect my cellphone.
[17:18] <nibsa1242> isaacj87: you may notice some difference, depending on how you use your machine...
[17:18] <Slart> ddfire: both will probably do what you'd expect from a linux distro
[17:18] <chadwik> leohartx: yikes! try a reboot :)
[17:18] <NekroJakub> How can I make make my cursor consistent across all applications? I changed it to black but when I cursor over Opera for example it changes to default.
[17:19] <esr> ljuwaidah: Read my blog, then.  Mostly I've been working on Barrle For Wesnoth.
[17:19] <Omar87> paul68: No, it clearly states that there are no proprietary drive used on this machine.
[17:19] <ubiquitus> Pici: I receive this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/70079/  help please...
[17:19] <alesan> hi, any idea how I can have Ubuntu create the /dev/ttyACM0 device ??
[17:19] <fosco_> NekroJakub, restart the X server
[17:19] <esr> s/Barrle/Battle/
[17:19] <isaacj87> nibsa1242: Simple web browsing, music playing, maybe an old game here and there.
[17:19] <herath> ddfire: i'd opt for 8.04 due to the longer support period
[17:19] <ddfire> Slart: is for a new installation,  i have experience whit debian, but in this job use ubuntu
[17:19] <NekroJakub> fosco_ : How do I do that?
[17:19] <ddfire> herath: the support period is just for security updates?
[17:19] <Slart> ddfire: go with the LTS if you need the stability
[17:20] <fosco_> NekroJakub, close session
[17:20] <nibsa1242> isaacj87: probably won't notice much of a difference... if you are running a laptop could have some minor positive ( or negative ) influence on battery life
[17:20] <ljuwaidah> esr: I'm subscribed to it but I don't know anything about that, I'll check all the posts again :P
[17:20] <herath> ddfire: yes. only security... but on a server environment you usually don't need new flashier features
[17:20] <rand0mabo> hey people.. just wondering if there's a way in the gnome panel to have a "window list: listed as icons" instead of buttons like the regular windows taskbar (i know xfce has an icon task-switcher but wondering if it exists for gnome)
[17:20] <emilien> nibsa1242:  have whole load of pulseaudio errors  user.log , in Xorg says no  Open ACPi failed , NO APM support in in bios or kenel
[17:20] <NekroJakub> fosco_ : You mean log out, log in?
[17:21] <fosco_> NekroJakub, yes
[17:21]  * NekroJakub tries that
[17:21] <ddfire> herath:  i just need uptodate asterisk (package) i am figthing to make my package but...
[17:21] <leohartx> chadwik: i've already rebooted twice :(
[17:21] <BOAT> anybody know how to fix an LBA47904  error  when i try to burn
[17:21] <chadwik> leohartx: 'Network Monitor' is the name of the applet in the 'add to panel' list
[17:21] <nibsa1242> emilien: pulseaudio is annoying, but shouldn't prevent you from booting [ I just finished fixing my pusleaudio ... it crashed b/c of flash-plugin-nonfree 9 so I upgraded to 10 ].
[17:21] <ddfire> herath: the packages in ubuntu 8.04 is 1.4.17 the current release is 1.4.22
[17:22] <darkvertex> Omar87: i'm referring to Devices section, this might apply to your case
[17:22] <Omar87> darkvertex: Thanks man.
[17:22]  * NekroJakub succeeds!
[17:22] <Bittarman> has anyone gotten an X-Fi working with 8.10?
[17:22] <herath> ddfire: doesn't asterisk provide an .deb repository? i haven't used it so i don't know... if they do, adding it to your update sources will update it to the latest version
[17:22] <nibsa1242> emilien: try the kernel logs... you are looking for something like a kernel panic
[17:22] <NekroJakub> Thank you fosco_
[17:22] <isaacj87> nibsa1242: Thanks for the advice. I think I'll save my money. :)
[17:23] <BOAT> anybody know how to fix an LBA 47904  error  when i try to burn
[17:23] <leohartx> chadwik: seem not like that
[17:23] <ljuwaidah> esr: One last question: How do _you_ make money for living?
[17:23] <leohartx> chadwik: very different from old network manager icon
[17:23] <ddfire> herath:  they only provide src...
[17:24] <nibsa1242> isaacj87: yeah, don't fix what isn't broken... if you gamed, or compiled, or did heavy graphics/ movie editing it would probably be worth it
[17:24] <leohartx> chadwik: how do i make other aute eth0 ? i deleted old one
[17:24] <chadwik> leohartx: ahh your right thats not the same one
[17:24] <AkariChan> chadwik: delete? u mean u did ifdown?
[17:25] <herath> ddfire: in that case 8.04 won't be much help
[17:25] <emilien> nibsa1242:  yes iv had few of those pesky pule audio probs to =)
[17:25] <AkariChan> use alsa/oss if you have problems with pulse :)
[17:25] <chadwik> nm-applet
[17:25] <AkariChan> chadwik: try dhcpcd-bin eth0
[17:25] <ddfire> herath: nop i know but my boss want to use 8.04 backport asterisk 1.4.21 from 8.10 to 8.04 is almost imposible for me...
[17:26] <esr> ljuwaidah: Book royalties.  Consulting gigs.
[17:26] <nibsa1242> emilien: pulse likes to conflict with many commonly used programs... I'm learning to work around it, but its annoying
[17:26] <PeskyJ> does anyone know a good channel for xming users?
[17:26] <chadwik> AkariChan: its leohartx that needs help :)
[17:26] <ljuwaidah> Fair enough, thanks :)
[17:26] <AkariChan> oh my bad ;)
[17:26] <james_> help plz!
[17:26] <leohartx> AkariChan: do you know how to make other auto eth0 ?
[17:26] <james_> Who plays ET?
[17:26] <AkariChan> leohartx: how do you mean other? you have more than 1 ethernet cards?
[17:27] <james_> Who plays ET?= Enemy territory
[17:27] <leohartx> AkariChan: why i cant configure my wired connection in network configuration ? every thing turn back to default when i finish configure my "auto eth0", i'm using "sudo pppoeconf" now and it's relative slow (slower than when i use wired connection), how do i fix it ?
[17:27] <leohartx> AkariChan: no, i deleted old one
[17:27] <jmarsden> esr: You appear to have a typo in your /whois info... I'd think s/Eruc/Eric/ might be appropriate?
[17:27] <Flannel> !anyone | jmarsden
[17:27] <emilien> nibsa1242:  can't see any errors in kenel log neither sys.log =(
[17:27] <AkariChan> leohartx: what kind of connection are you using, DSL? or DHCP through a router?
[17:27] <Flannel> er, james_
[17:28] <ddfire> any one have experience maiking debs from source?
[17:28] <esr> jmarsden: Hm, I thought I fixed that.  Lemme check...
[17:28] <Flannel> james_: Best to ask a real question.  Also, the forums have a lot of good information on running ET (and fixing the various issues with voice stuff, etc), you might check them out.
[17:28] <Guest94291> #join ubuntu-fr
[17:28] <jmarsden> Flannel: Did I really start a Q with "Does anyone"??
[17:29] <leohartx> AkariChan: DCHP, but i deleted auto eth0, and my wired connection cant save settings
[17:29] <Flannel> jmarsden: no, no, that was a bad tab complete
[17:29] <darkvertex> Omar87: one last question: if you type hcitool dev in a terminal, do you get a positive reply from your on-board bluetooth?
[17:29] <jmarsden> Flannel: OK... Phew :-)
[17:29] <nibsa1242> emilien: I'm sorry there isn't anything to do that I can think of. Best bet is to do a fresh install.
[17:29] <AkariChan> leohartx: you can configure dhcpcd to run in rc, that way you can auto get ip
[17:29] <AkariChan> and remove pppoeconf
[17:29] <AkariChan> sudo apt-get purge pppoeconf
[17:30] <leohartx> AkariChan: i'm using sudo pppoeconf now, and it's relative slow ( more than when i use wired connection)
[17:30] <ddfire> i need help to make a deb package i read the how tos but there are to basics.... someone have any idea?
[17:30] <leohartx> AkariChan: do you know the reason ?
[17:30] <AkariChan> leohartx: not exactly.
[17:30] <AkariChan> leohartx: but do you have to use pppoeconf?
[17:31] <Mattlock> this is probably a stupid and/or dangerous question, but is it possible to make a logical partition into a primary partition? (i only have one primary partition right now)
[17:31] <emilien> nibsa1242:  was trying to avoid that at all costs , feel like im in windows =(
[17:31] <reqqit> Hi, I am installing 8.10 onto a netbook - I have already set ext2 partition to mount to / (6.9 gb)
[17:31] <reqqit> the swap partitition, should the mount be /swap ?
[17:31] <reqqit> or something else?
[17:31] <KDB9000> I need help removing compiz-gnome from my system. I can't install or remove any other software until compiz-gnome has been removed. So far all my attempts with GUI or text package managers have failed.
[17:31] <nibsa1242> emilien: if your /home is its own partition, that would be easy... you can install off the live cd and keep all of your files in your home
[17:31] <leohartx> AkariChan: yes, that's way i communicate you now
[17:31] <reqqit> /dev/sda2 swap mount point? format ?
[17:31] <Pici> reqqit: no, the swap partition is not mounted to a mountpoint.  Just setting the type to swap should be enough.
[17:31] <darkvertex> Omar87: Something like Devices: hci0	11:11:11:11:11:11 should be returned to you when you execute hcitool dev
[17:31] <AkariChan> KDB9000: try sudo apt-get purge compiz-gnome
[17:31] <fosco_> KDB9000, reinstall package first
[17:32] <Pici> ddfire: Have you looked at the Ubuntu packaging guide?
[17:32] <leohartx> AkariChan: do you know how to make a new auto eth0 ?
[17:32] <reqqit> ok cheers Pici, that worked
[17:32] <jmarsden> reqqit: sap partitions are not filesystems, so they are not mounted.  Do not put anything for the mount point
[17:32] <KDB9000> fosco_, it won't let me reinstall the package
[17:32] <nibsa1242> emilien: someone else may be able to help you, the problem is triaging it to know what is wrong
[17:32] <AkariChan> leohartx: just install dhcpcd, remove pppoeconf, reboot, and if you don't have an ip, run dhcpcd eth0.
[17:32] <reqqit> jmarsden, thanks
[17:32] <KDB9000> AkariChan, failed
[17:32] <fosco_> KDB9000, maybe you'll need to force things
[17:32] <d0uglas> hi.. i'd like to install apache 1.3.something, ideally with apt, but i'm only seeing apache2 on an apt search. where can i find the .deb or could i change my sources.list?
[17:32] <AkariChan> KDB9000: force
[17:32] <rand0mabo> hey people.. just wondering if there's a way in the gnome panel to have a "window list: listed as icons" instead of buttons like the regular windows taskbar (i know xfce has an icon task-switcher but wondering if it exists for gnome)
[17:32] <Omar87> darkvertex: All I get is "Devices:         ".
[17:33] <reqqit> 8.10 is awesome on the acer aspire ONE btw - really amazing
[17:33] <nibsa1242> emilien: I had a bricked install that failed; and was able to fix it by chrooting into the install from the recovery console, but it was complicated and took forever
[17:33] <KDB9000> AkariChan, sudo apt-get purge -f compiz-gnome right?
[17:33] <AkariChan> reqqit: indeed. it works wonders on my eeepc 901 as well.
[17:33] <emilien> nibsa1242:  no it ok il just reinstall had nothing i realy need in /home
[17:33] <AkariChan> KDB9000: yes.and what is the result of that?
[17:33] <KDB9000> AkariChan, failed
[17:33] <nibsa1242> emilien alright good luck
[17:34] <leohartx> AkariChan: how do i remove pppoeconf ?
[17:34] <AkariChan> KDB9000: what does it say? pm me the rest
[17:34] <AkariChan> leohartx: sudo apt-get purge pppoeconf
[17:34] <leohartx>  AkariChan: or i just have to turn it off ?
[17:34] <AkariChan> but before that, please install dhcpcd
[17:34] <pipini> ciao a tutti
[17:34] <darkvertex> Omar87: Then maybe you have enable the bluetooth in windows first as suggested by the article. Sorry, couldn't be any more help to you
[17:35] <reqqit> AkariChan, nice to know! I hope you don't mind your screen not being as bright as mine ;-) :p
[17:35] <AkariChan> reqqit: there is a fix for it, in fact brighter than aspireone
[17:35] <Omar87> darkvertex: Windows? What's that? Is it a clothing brand? :D
[17:36] <darkvertex> Omar87: :)
[17:36] <eitreach> I need some help with pulseaudio. I am trying to use mpd, but pulseaudio is not started before I log into Gnome. How can I make pulseaudio start before that, so I can use mpd in cli without having to start it myself?
[17:36] <leohartx> AkariChan: seem like that command will remove pppoeconf, is there another way ? can i just turn it off ?
[17:37] <ziofester> Cyaoo a tutti!!
[17:37] <ziofester> ciao a tutti
[17:37] <reqqit> AkariChan, my netbook screen actually makes my eyes bleed and causes the neighbours dog to stay awake all night howling!
[17:37] <Omar87> darkvertex: Bluetooth used to work perfectly with me in the old days when I was using that thing they call "Windows".
[17:37] <AkariChan> leohartx: you can do
[17:37] <AkariChan> leohartx: ps aux | grep pppoe and find the processid to kill it
[17:37] <Mattlock_> this is probably a stupid and/or dangerous question, but is it possible to make a logical partition into a primary partition? (i only have one primary partition right now)
[17:37] <AkariChan> reqqit: haha. same thing when i am doing lectures in my clases. people gets annoyed saying that it's brighter than the projector.
[17:38] <Omar87> darkvertex: so it should've been enabled already, ya know.. -.-
[17:38] <vinicius> anyone from ubuntuforums.org? i can't post a reply anywhere...
[17:38] <Mattlock_> oh.. sorry ^^ FreeNode/ubuntu is the same DALnet's ubuntu_server..
[17:38] <Pici> vinicius: #ubuntuforums
[17:38] <emilien> nibsa1242:  might aswell take advantage of reinstall , any way of having an encrypted whole partition? also recomend ext4 ?
[17:38] <vinicius> Pici, thanks
[17:39] <reqqit> AkariChan, I was watching the eclipse and the scientists told me I had to wear eye protection to look at my screen, nevermind the sun.
[17:39] <AkariChan> haha.
[17:39] <herath> ddfire: i use checkinstall to create .deb's. in the final step of compiling, instead of sudo make install you type sudo checkinstall -D. you need to install checkinstall program first
[17:39] <reqqit> :p nah I like them both. But the Acer has a O where the EEE has a P. To me, having that extra finger space of keyboard size makes a huge difference in typability.
[17:39] <AkariChan> Can anyone recommend a text based browser other than links/lynx/links2?
[17:39] <Omar87> darkvertex: one more thing, the Networks icons, where it shows you any detected wired and wireless connections, it doesn't appear at all with me.
[17:39] <Pici> AkariChan: w3m ?
[17:40] <jmarsden> AkariChan: w3m
[17:40] <reqqit> AkariChan, must run in console?
[17:40] <Omar87> darkvertex: I'm not sure why..
[17:40] <v> hi
[17:40] <AkariChan> reqqit: xterm or gnoem-terminal is fine
[17:40] <reqqit> AkariChan, oh, I was going to say run firefox without stylesheets or images loading
[17:40] <AkariChan> reqqit: indeed. the aspire one is slightly bigger (10") and for fat fingers, it's more comfortable.
[17:40] <leohartx> AkariChan: there is no such a pppoe process
[17:40] <md22> hello
[17:40] <fosco_> KDB9000,  sudo dpkg --force-all -P compiz-gnome
[17:41] <md22> whats the name of a good console bittorrent client
[17:41] <reqqit> AkariChan, I will say I think the EEE I saw, white, with japanese characters on the keyboard, looked more like a cyberpunk deck than the acer one, which looks like a pigmy laptop
[17:41] <darkvertex> Omar87: I personally haven't upgraded to Ibex since there would be a few issues with my hardware. My experience with Hardy is favourable, so I'm sticking to it, for the moment at least.
[17:41] <Slart> md22: rtorrent is one I think
[17:41] <KDB9000> fosco_, failed
[17:41] <Slart> !bittorrent
[17:41] <AkariChan> reqqit: haha. to each his own taste. I like my form factor a lot.
[17:41] <fosco_> KDB9000, wow :-/
[17:41] <darkvertex> Omar87: About the network applet, may be you can add it manually through Add-To-Panel?
[17:42] <AkariChan> KDB9000: it's really broken now.
[17:42] <reqqit> AkariChan, yeah, I like the EEE form factor, that is what I am saying :p
[17:42] <PeskyJ> md22: I use rtorrent and love it :)
[17:42] <Omar87> darkvertex: 'kay, thanks for everything. :)
[17:42] <md22> okok
[17:42] <FFForever> how do i install vimtutor?
[17:42] <darkvertex> Omar87: right on. C U
[17:42] <KDB9000> AkariChan, I have fixed it to were it sin't reported as a broken package but it doesn't help me much after that.
[17:42] <AkariChan> reqqit: i was going to pick up the aspireone, but the only thing drawing me back is its battery life and the fact that opening it up is quite a hassle.
[17:42] <reqqit> AkariChan, on the A1, I am going to try and put an option 3G gsm stick inside it, take the case off and clip it onto the motherboard, should fit ok. Mine also has 1.5gb ram
[17:42] <Promille> hey. some wine gurus who can help me? got no answer at #winehq...
[17:42] <reqqit> AkariChan, yeah, it was a real pain :p
[17:42] <xxSimxx> Hi i have a problem with my audio chipset driver installation
[17:43] <Bittarman> I almost bought an Aspire One, then i saw the battery life :p
[17:43] <xxSimxx> Any can help me?

[17:43] <Promille> hey. some wine gurus who can help me? got no answer at #winehq...
[17:43] <AkariChan> reqqit: mine's a 2gb, with touchscreen and a 80gb upgrade i did a while ago. i was going to add the HSPDA but I was too lazy soldering.
[17:43] <reqqit> Bittarman, what is wrong with it? I think I've been using it for 4 hours no problems :/
[17:43] <reqqit> touchscreen? ooh. how did you do that? resistive? or optical?
[17:43] <djbender> is there and acer apire one IRC channel?
[17:43] <AkariChan> resistive.
[17:44] <AkariChan> http://s247.photobucket.com/albums/gg155/kazuninishiki/EeePC/
[17:44] <Bittarman> really? thats twice what alot of people seem to get out of them.
[17:44] <reqqit> blender segfaults on it tho' :(
[17:44] <reqqit> I'll try with 8.10 and blender
[17:44] <reqqit> AkariChan, you wouldn't happen to know anything about VRAM on iAKTOS installs would you? ;-)
[17:44] <AkariChan> ah. evil osx.
[17:45] <AkariChan> i do, for a bit. but not happy with osx so i didn't learn more :)
[17:45] <reqqit> AkariChan, wow, best photobucket page evar
[17:45] <mooded> hey all.. anybody knows how i can stop my headset from being recognized as a keyboard (which somehow seems to cause troubles...) .. im a bit clueless about how to tweak "config/hal" stuff...  http://pastebin.com/d5085e270
[17:45] <AkariChan> thanks :)
[17:45] <reqqit> AkariChan, iphone sdk tho'.... SDK works fine on my hackintosh, but blender says no VRAM, but system reports 256mb
[17:45] <ljuwaidah> gtg, later
[17:46] <AkariChan> ah. it's restrictive. it's been reported the iphone sdk won't work on hackintosh at all.
[17:46] <Pici> !offtopic
[17:46] <kri> hi, i have libmp3lame0_3.98.2-0.0_i386.deb and libmp3lame-dev_3.98.2-0.0_i386.deb what do i do now to isntall them to audacious?
[17:47] <AkariChan> now that I have virtualbox running along ubuntu, im happy to have seamless mode with winblows vista on my intrepid :)
[17:47] <Promille> hey. some wine gurus who can help me? got no answer at #winehq...
[17:47] <Pici> kri: Double click on them in Gnome.
[17:47] <tux9778> how do you access your network in 8.04?
[17:47] <Pici> Promille: Then be patient there.
[17:48] <kri> i runned 'sudo dpkg -i filename.deb'
[17:48] <Promille> Pici: sorry.. just very frustated.. ill be patient
[17:48] <Pici> kri: That works too
[17:48] <mooded> tux9778, what exactly do you mean, by "access your network" ?
[17:48] <reqqit> AkariChan, :((( damnit (iphone sdk not working) the xcode runs fine, everything else I've tested... still wanted blender to run tho'... I am waiting for my macbook!
[17:48] <kri> and after that
[17:48] <kri> hm what then?
[17:48] <tux9778> access my samba shares on another ubuntu box
[17:48] <reqqit> Anyone used 15" and 13" macbooks side by side?
[17:49] <Pici> reqqit: Is this Ubuntu related?
[17:49] <Medders> Hi, I've got a problem with my menu bar. I'm not sure why, but the text colour stays white, even when I change to a light theme. Any body know what I could do to fix it?
[17:49] <kri> Pici: what should i do after this dpkg -i command?
[17:49] <reqqit> Pici, can I install Ubuntu on a macbook?
[17:49] <oOarthurOo> I want to take a screenshot of this page, but it's pretty long. Do I need to take several and stitch them together? I have gimp and gnome-screenshot installed
[17:49] <Pici> kri: Run audacious?
[17:49] <oOarthurOo> oh and imagemagick
[17:49] <Pici> reqqit: You can, but I'm not sure where you're going with your question.
[17:49] <kri> Pici: dont i have to make? and make install before that?
[17:49] <sum-it> how can i make videos of screenshots
[17:50] <mooded> tux9778, i suppose using the standard-fileexplorer->network (menu point), though i havent tried it yet, since i got no windows-machine here atm..
[17:50] <Pici> kri: No.  .debs are binaries in most cases, theres no need to compile.
[17:50] <fosco_> sum-it, gtk-recordmydesktop
[17:50] <oOarthurOo> sum-it: I used kino. I think gimp has an animation plugin now.
[17:50] <jimmacdonald> Has anyone else had problems with creating a startup thumbdrive from a LiveCD?
[17:50] <genii> sum-it: You mean a slideshow from stills, or how to record the motion on your desktop?
[17:50] <Led-Hed> I'm running the 8.10 LiveCD, and installed OpenSSH-Server,  but I cant connect.  Anyone know what the password is for the LiveCD root account?
[17:50] <nicolas_> hi, i've just installed ubuntu 8.10 64 bits but i cant get mi atheros wlan AR242x 802.11abg work, any help?
[17:51] <tux9778> it works fine on windows mooded i just want to access my shares on ubuntu 8.04
[17:51] <genii> Led-Hed: It doesn't have one
[17:51] <Cluber> I'm having a screen resolution problem. I can't go higher than 800x600. What's wrong?
[17:51] <sum-it> just like windows movie maker in windows
[17:51] <kri> Pici: ok good is there now the icecast2-plugin. BUT then when i try to install mplayer 'sudo apt-get install mplayer' will remove these lovelly _very_ necessary packages libmp3lame-dev~.deb and libmp3lame0-dev~... what to do to install mplayer now?
[17:51] <Led-Hed> genii, so how might I go about logging in to it via SSH?
[17:51] <nicolas_>  hi, i've just installed ubuntu 8.10 64 bits but i cant get mi atheros wlan AR242x 802.11abg work, any help?
[17:51] <AkariChan> kri: you can always try the svn package of mplayer.
[17:51] <kri> AkariChan: svn package?
[17:51] <genii> Led-Hed: By "doesn't have one"    means use Enter key or so for the password
[17:51] <AkariChan> kri: apt-get install subversion
[17:52] <Out_Cold> hey guys.. i'm trying to figure out why this command won't produce STDOUT-put 'tar -cC /home/user'
[17:52] <Pici> kri: Is there a reason that you didn't install them from the repositories?
[17:52] <Guest98680> rewrite_module is the same as mod_rewrite?
[17:52] <Led-Hed> nicolas_, thats gonna get anoying real quick
[17:52] <Cluber> http://pastebin.com/m267baa40 Output from command, why is the maximum 800x600?
[17:52] <Promille> nicolas_: what doesnt work about it?
[17:52] <kri> Pici: yes i needed the latest build (2.~0) audacious to get the plugins needed for icecast2 server.
[17:52] <AkariChan> kri:   svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer
[17:52] <mooded> tux9778, so you have a samba-server running ? which i think is necessary to provide shares to other machines ,)
[17:52] <Pici> kri: mplayer depends on a different version of those packages that are in the repos.
[17:52] <nicolas_> it doesnt show me any conection
[17:52] <Led-Hed> genii, ok then what user acount should I connect as, since it doesn't have a root account?
[17:52] <AkariChan> kri: run them by steps.
[17:52] <tux9778> mooded yes
[17:53] <AkariChan> once you retrieved the package, go into the folder, ./configure, make, make install.
[17:53] <mooded> tux, k - what is then the exact problem ? why cant your windows-machine list the shares on your ubuntu-machine ? (timeout while connecting ? invalid credentials ? )
[17:54] <kicco> hello, i need help with acpi and acer laptop, has andybody ever fought against that?
[17:54] <tux9778> mooded what do i use to exactly to see my shares from 8.04

[17:54] <chadeldridge> Does anyone know what actual gstreamer codecs are needed to run songbird .. short of installing all 112mb of gstreamer0.10 files ?
[17:54] <tux9778> mooded every thing works just wondering witch app or whatever to use to access from linux to linux
[17:55] <kicco> i need to pass acpi=off to kernel otherwise it won't boot, but so my wlan card does not work
[17:55] <genii> Led-Hed: Use "whoami" on the livecd to find out the username it's on as
[17:55] <Cluber> is it broadcom?
[17:55] <mooded> tux9778, you could use "smbclient" or a simple "mount -t smbfs //remotehost/remoteshare /mnt/smb -o username=<yourusername>" for example..
[17:56] <tux9778> ok ill try that mooded
[17:56] <Led-Hed> genii, cant I'm not at the LiveCD box anymore.  Set it up this morning, installed SSHd then went to work.  :(
[17:56] <maxime> j #infexious
[17:57] <genii> Led-Hed: The default as I recall is     ubuntu@ubuntu
[17:57] <suspect43> hey, does anyone know how to read info manuals in emacs? for example, what is the equivalent of typing "info pidgin" at the shell?
[17:57] <mooded> tux9778, and as i said.. the gnome-fileexplorer supports viewing smb-shares too..
[17:58] <jmarsden> Led-Hed: I think the default livecd username may be ubuntu -- worth a try?  ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[17:58] <tux9778> ok thanks mooded that u were talking about the windows one im sorry
[17:58] <mooded> no problem .. i prolly said it in a way easily to misunderstand ;)
[17:58] <cypherus> is there anyone here that is familiar with security systems like zoneminder or motion?

[17:59] <tamere> hi guys
[18:00] <AkariChan> question: what's the best way to back up your system, other than backing up your .debs?
[18:00] <mooded> cluber, better tell your problem than asking if anybody is willing to help ;)
[18:00] <Out_Cold> AkariChan, make a tar file
[18:00] <suspect43> jmarsden: i know. from there, i can access a number of manuals, but not all that are installed (and viewable from info)
[18:00] <kri> hm maybe cause software sources is set to http://debian-lth.se/debian-multimedia/ lenny main
[18:00] <regebro> Hiya! I
[18:00] <south_korea> ** where can i download rom files for mame (?)
[18:00] <dekushrub> i'm using ubuntu 8.10 and the restricted wireless driver from the repositories and sometimes i'll get kernel panic from the driver, is there a fix to this
[18:00] <AkariChan> out_cold: of the whole system? starting from /?
[18:01] <cypherus> I am trying to set up Motion properly and am running into issues.  I am using a network camera and had it running last week, but made some mistakes and started over with 8.10
[18:01] <jvm_> hi. i am not sure whether i found a bug or not; can someone support me with a bug report in a query?
[18:01] <Out_Cold> hmm.. i'd take important stuff... but do as much as you need
[18:01] <cypherus> now I am getting errors when I try to load the config file
[18:01] <regebro> I'm trying out 8.10 on a MacBook, and I'm trying to get the wifi working from the LiveCD. Any hints for doing this?
[18:01] <Pici> jvm_: Join #ubuntu-bugs and ask :)
[18:02] <AkariChan> question: is there an equivalent package similar to "Dreamscene" in windows vista for gnome?
[18:02] <cypherus> "could not open configfile /etc/motion/motion.conf: Permission denied"
[18:02] <regebro> I've enabled the hardware driver, did a modprobe on the driver, which seemed to work. And... then what?
[18:02] <Pirate_Hunter> hi i have screen running on my other comp and i wish to connect to it but screen is still attached would this command still work i.e. screen -r 31619.ttyp2.gigan
[18:02] <jvm_> thanks Pici.
[18:02] <kri> AkariChan: im sorry bot i noticed my package manager was set to debian i now have restored it back if i 'sudo apt-get install mplayer' now will it remove libmp3lame-dev?
[18:02] <Out_Cold> AkariChan, if you are going to start backing up from / you should look into using dd as a device copier
[18:03] <AkariChan> Out_Cold: i see, thanks. I'll man dd
[18:03] <AkariChan> kri: it will.
[18:03] <Enissay> wich log can i use to synchronize subtitles?
[18:04] <dekushrub> does anyone know about the wireless driver in the repositories causing kernel panic?
[18:04] <Cluber> please help
[18:04] <kri> ok so if i 1. 'sudo apt-get install subversion'? and then 'svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer' it will not?
[18:04] <jmarsden> suspect43: You should add the others to the menu... see   man install-info
[18:04] <mooded> AkariChan, not really afaik.. if you just like a nice desktop try the "compiz-fusion" stuff.. i dunno if it supports animated backgrounds though..
[18:04] <AkariChan> kri: exactly.
[18:04] <kri> ok i try it
[18:04] <AkariChan> because it is not based on debian package.
[18:05] <noodlesgc> dekushrub what driver is it?
[18:05] <cypherus> Here's the full error http://paste.ubuntu.com/70097/

[18:06] <ardi_kk> hello, i am getting some veard behaviour with my lenovo thinkpad r 60 battery backup reporting.  i had an old battery which now gives 2 hours 5 minits backup.  so I decided to change it after a year because it has a 1 hour drop.
[18:06] <ardi_kk> but the second battery which is new is also giving same backup report
[18:06] <Cluber> http://pastebin.com/m267baa40 Output from xrandr command, why is the maximum 800x600?
[18:06] <cypherus> I've already edited the .conf file, but am having a problem with permissions...not sure what the problem is now
[18:06] <AkariChan> !offtopic | south_korea
[18:06] <Out_Cold> loxs[],  you can get a ntfs reader out of the package repos
[18:07] <gans> hallo
[18:07] <xxSimxx> Any can help me?....
[18:07] <ardi_kk> I know that the new battery can't be that bad and it does give 3 hours 45 minits backup
[18:07] <mooded> xxSimxx, dont ask to ask - just ask :)
[18:07] <xxSimxx> ^^
[18:07] <xxSimxx> http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/plain-6062
[18:07] <ardi_kk> is there a proper way to find out proper battery backup time?
[18:07] <jvm_> why is it so hard to downgrade a system with apt-get?
[18:07] <xxSimxx> i have 2 error during the installation
[18:07] <regebro> Somebody must know what is needed to load a Wifi-driver?
[18:08] <scunizi> !wireless | regebro
[18:08] <cypherus> Here's the full error http://paste.ubuntu.com/70097/
[18:08] <Out_Cold> regebro, in my experiences ( which hasn't been to much) the live cd does not always load all the drivers that you can get from a full install and update
[18:08] <jmarsden> suspect43: Looks like you can also hit g inside Emacs info mode and type in (filename)nodename to go straight to a node in a file.
[18:08] <cypherus> I've already edited the .conf file, but am having a problem with permissions...not sure what the problem is now
[18:09] <Cluber> http://pastebin.com/m267baa40 Output from xrandr command, why is the maximum 800x600? I want my screen resolution 1024x768 but it's not an option.
[18:09] <ardi_kk> can some one tell me why my new battery and my old battery give same backup time?  i know that is not the case but that is what ubuntu reports on my laptop.
[18:09] <zax_> permisions matter
[18:09] <regebro> Out_Cold: Yeah, that's the case, I'm trying to figure out how to load them.
[18:09] <danub> quick question, i added a fstab entry to mount my windows share, but trying to access the files by anyone other then root results in a permission denied error. I think there was some umask code i was supposed to use in the fstab entry but i cant remember what thre entry was... anyone know it off the top of their heads?
[18:09] <Out_Cold> Cluber, have you seen if your video card driver is in use?
[18:09] <akazawax> hi I ran badblocks and the only output after it was done was this: 134217664
[18:09] <Cluber> How do i see that?
[18:09] <akazawax> what does this mean? is this an error code?
[18:09] <Out_Cold> Cluber, system>admin>hardware
[18:09] <mooded> xxSimxx, no idea.. could be quite a lot --- sry..
[18:10] <Cluber> "Hardware Testing" ? ubuntu 8.10
[18:10] <Out_Cold> drivers
[18:10] <kuro> I used dd to copy my ubuntu 8.10 partition to another partition on the same HD but now i don't know how to add the new partition to grub. I copied sda4 to sda3 if that helps
[18:10] <danub> is it "umask=0244"?
[18:10] <jonathon> how do i download a file through the terminal sshed into another box.?
[18:10] <xxSimxx> ok =/
[18:10] <Cluber> k
[18:10] <Out_Cold> Cluber,  is your card in use?
[18:10] <AlabamaHit> What is a Terminal command to Delete a shortcut .......... the shortcut is a folder.....
[18:10] <akazawax> jonathon, wget
[18:11] <danub> jonathon: i think you have to use scp for that... i dont think ssh supports file transfers
[18:11] <mooded> xxSimxx, maybe an alsa-channel might be a better place to ask
[18:11] <xxSimxx> Can i have an other option to install my sound driver?
[18:11] <Cluber> How do i know if it's in use? I am just running "Hardware Drivers" now...
[18:11] <xxSimxx> Like in the synaptic paquet?
[18:11] <fosco_> AlabamaHit, rm -f shortcut
[18:11] <loxs[]> Out_Cold, there is no package named ntfs-reader (or similar)
[18:11] <Cluber> It says.
[18:11] <AlabamaHit> fosco_, thanks :)
[18:11] <jonathon> akazawax,  that worked but it is .tar how i install that?
[18:11] <scunizi> AlabamaHit, is the folder in your /home directory?  then rm -Rf shortcut
[18:11] <Cluber> Out_Cold: "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system."
[18:12] <AlabamaHit> scunizi, i have delteed the folder already, its a shortcut im trying to delte.
[18:12] <Out_Cold> loxs[], the package is 'ntfs-3g'
[18:12] <loxs[]> Out_Cold, thanks
[18:12] <Out_Cold> and Cluber sorry bud but if it's not a proprietary driver i dunno how to help
[18:12] <kpo2008> spanish
[18:12] <danub> anyone know how to mount a windows network share with appropriate permissions using fstab entry?
[18:13] <danub> only root can run the data on the share which isn't what i want
[18:13] <kpo2008> alguien habla español
[18:13] <akazawax> jonathon, what are you downloading to install?
[18:13] <AlabamaHit> Thanks for the help guys :)
[18:13] <scunizi> AlabamaHit, you said the shortcut was a folder or in a folder.. if the folder is gone then where is the shortcut?  Still, if it's in your /home directory someplace then rm -f shortcutname should do it.
[18:13] <IdleOne> !es | kpo2008
[18:13] <jonathon> akazawax, http://irssi.org/files/irssi-0.8.12.tar.gz
[18:14] <scunizi> JonathanD, irssi is in the repos.. just sudo apt-get install irssi and you'll have it.
[18:14] <noodlesgc> danub you may find what you're looking for in the mount man page. just type 'man mount'
[18:14] <rand0mabo> hey people, i've installed xfce4-panel in the gnome environment (for the simple reason of the iconbox option) and it seems to work just fine but.. question being - how do I get it to auto-start xfce4-panel when ubuntu starts up so i dont have to open it through terminal?
[18:14] <akazawax> jonathon, are you ssh into a debian based, or an ubuntu machine?
[18:14] <AlabamaHit> scunizi, what i had was i use LAMP and i use a shortcut to a folder in the home directory so i can edit the files freely but i mistyped the location and made a shortcut to a folder that really was not there.....and i got it deleted now...i was mistyping the command..
[18:14] <jonathon> scunizi,  this is for a debian box not ubuntu.
[18:14] <jonathon> akazawax, debian
[18:14] <sum-it> while installing compiz with dpkg -i dpkg just closes with output "setting compiz .........."and it quits
[18:15] <fosco_> rand0mabo, system - preferences - session
[18:15] <noodlesgc> rand0mabo add it in system->preferences->sessions
[18:15] <akazawax> jonathon, apt-get install irssi
[18:15] <AlabamaHit> is xubuntu debian?
[18:15] <genii> jonathon: Same. It also uses the apt-get way
[18:15] <regebro> scunizi: Thanks, I can't find anything there that helps me. It tells me how to check that things are loaded, not how to load them.. :)
[18:15] <jonathon> akazawax,  i tried that said cant find package
[18:15] <regebro> I see the interface in lsmod, but not in ifconfig.
[18:15] <IdleOne> AlabamaHit: xubuntu is ubuntu with xfce frontend ( based off of debian )
[18:15] <regebro> There must be some step missing there.
[18:16] <scunizi> regebro, sorry I don't have any additional info.. haven't been through trying to load an additional driver for wireless.. all mine work out of the box.
[18:16] <regebro> ok, thanks
[18:16] <mooded> danub, //<machineip>/<sharename> /mnt/mysmbmount smbfs auto,username=yourusername 0 0 ---- this should work..
[18:16] <AlabamaHit> cool, thanks for the help guys
[18:16] <scunizi> jonathon, ah.. still it should be in debian's repos as well.. pretty common program
[18:16] <jonathon> genii,  akazawax  and scunizi  i tried the apt-get sayd could not find such file
[18:17] <Xiolar> hello all
[18:17] <akazawax> jonathon, try apt-get update to update the repositories
[18:17] <danub> oh crap... that might be why... im using cifs instead of smbfs
[18:17] <gerek> Hello there. Im new to the LINUX, Ive changed something in boot grub menu.lst and I dont know if I did it right. I would like XP to be on the top of the list and ubuntu after Other operating systems. Is this right ? http://pastebin.com/m38a3301a
[18:17] <danub> ill give that a shot
[18:17] <jmarsden> regebro: Are you trying to discover the modprobe command??
[18:17] <gerek> Thanx to the one that replays!
[18:17] <jvm_> !pinning
[18:17] <regebro> jmarsden: No, I got that far. I modprobed the bcmsomething driver, and it now shows up in lsmod.
[18:17] <jonathon> akazawax,  did but same thing.
[18:17] <danub> nope, still wont allow it
[18:18] <jonathon> brb
[18:18] <regebro> But then I'm stuck. ifconfig still doesn't know of it.
[18:18] <noodlesgc> gerek it looks good to me
[18:18] <Xiolar> Can anyone help me finding the GUI for X.org so I can configure my Samsung TV?
[18:18] <jmarsden> regebro: Then that module *is* loaded...
[18:18] <gerek> noodlesgc, u sure ?
[18:18] <scunizi> gerek, looks good but I don't see a reference for xp.. where is it?
[18:18] <regebro> Yeah, should that be all that is needed? Because the networking doesn't seem to know that it's there.
[18:18] <noodlesgc> gerek thats not the entire list is it? You do have an entry for xp above those right?
[18:18] <Xiolar> Is the GUI X.org built in already or do I need to download it?
[18:18] <mooded> Xiolar, are you sure that gui-program runs on linux ?
[18:18] <Xiolar> yea
[18:19] <Xiolar> its ubuntu
[18:19] <akazawax> jonathon, what version of debian are you using
[18:19] <sken> how can i update these packages? linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic 2.6.27-7.16 linux-image-2.6.27-7-server 2.6.27-7.16 linux-image-2.6.27-7-virtual 2.6.27-7.16
[18:19] <genii> jonathon: From #debian channel: <dpkg> irssi: (terminal based IRC client), section net, is optional. Version: 0.8.12-5 (sid), Packaged size: 1052 kB, Installed size: 2764 kB
[18:19] <Xiolar> news say it has got it from v7.10
[18:19] <gerek> scunizi http://pastebin.com/m7ad379db
[18:19] <regebro> Maybe I can restart the netowrking. Hmmm
[18:19] <gerek> noodlesgc, sorry here is the entire list http://pastebin.com/m7ad379db
[18:19] <genii> jonathon: You may want to visit there instead of here in #ubuntu if you want Debian-specific support
[18:19] <danub> my fstab entry reads " //machineip/netshare /mount/point smbfs username=user,password=pass,utf8 0 0"
[18:20] <mooded> Xiolar, i guess we have a huge term-problem here.. ubuntu = os, x.org = windowmanager, gnome = desktopmanager.. in ubuntu 8.10 gnome (and all dependencies) is installed by default and theres no need to download anything.
[18:20] <danub> run anything as a normal user
[18:20] <Out_Cold> is there a 'soft' halt for STDOUT-put?
[18:20] <kri> ok i want to install mplayer without to remove the 'libmp3lame-dev' and 'libmp3lame0..' how do i do that? 'svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer' did not work
[18:20] <Xiolar> so if I got it correct, its already installed then?
[18:20] <noodlesgc> gerek I think its good
[18:20] <Xiolar> Where can I find it?
[18:20] <scunizi> gerek, yep there now.. looks good.. I also leave a copy of the lines in their original location just incase a kernel update changes the upper part of GRUB.. also did you make a backup of the original file?  if not do that.
[18:20] <sken> how can i update these packages? linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic 2.6.27-7.16 linux-image-2.6.27-7-server 2.6.27-7.16 linux-image-2.6.27-7-virtual 2.6.27-7.16
[18:20] <gerek> noodlesgc ok Ill try rebppt
[18:21] <AkariChan> kri: please check PM
[18:21] <noodlesgc> sken try sudo apt-get upgrade
[18:21] <mooded> Xiolar, what program are you using to chat with us right now ?
[18:21] <Pici> sken: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[18:21] <Pici> sken: That is, if there are updated packages available in the repositories.
[18:21] <Xiolar> mIRC but that on my Windows Machine, I got linux on the computer connect to the Samsung TV
[18:22] <Out_Cold> how stable is the 8.10 now?? i tried when it first came out and had nothing but troubles..
[18:22] <danub> anyone?
[18:22] <kicco> hi, wireless on acer aspire, to have my system working i had to pass acpi=off to kernel but with no acpi i can't switch on my wireless card!
[18:22] <mooded> Out_Cold, just installed it yesterday.. and its nice so far ;)
[18:22] <fosco_> Out_Cold, no problem here
[18:22] <danub> kicco]
[18:22] <danub> wrong way to do it
[18:22] <Out_Cold> maybe time for a upgrade huh
[18:22] <noodlesgc> Out_Cold it works for me
[18:22] <schmoop> does anyone have any ideas other than fs-driver for getting windows to read an ext3 raid6 DRIVE?
[18:22] <mooded> danub: you might try addign uid=<wisheduid>, gid=<wishedaccessgid> to the param line
[18:22] <danub> google "acer aspire 1 ubuntu"
[18:22] <Xiolar> got 8.04 (Ubuntu)
[18:23] <sken> how can i learn which kernels i have?
[18:23] <Out_Cold> it's either i upgrade to 8.10 or downgrade to slackware lol
[18:23] <noodlesgc> sken uname -r
[18:23] <sken> my pc as i see is updated
[18:23] <jonathon_> akazawax, still wont work
[18:23] <goudkov> is there a tool that can report disk io stats and list which files are being read/written?
[18:23] <mooded> xiolar, if your linux-installation starts.. do you have high-res graphics or does it look more like command-prompt in windows ?
[18:23] <kicco> danub: tnx alot! i didn't find it.
[18:24] <qpdb> I have problems with createing shortcuts via gnome-keybinding-properties: when i try to set the windows key, it appears as "Super L" but i cant combine another key to it (like Super L is no modifier key). Other (default) shortcuts containing the winkey display them as "Mod4". Whats wrong with my winkey?
[18:24] <luca9785> hi, what is the package for administration the user on ubuntu? the exact name
[18:24] <danub> didn't find what?
[18:24] <Out_Cold> well... gotta go roll a fatty before i embark on this upgrade
[18:24] <Xiolar> the normal 8.04 installtion
[18:24] <Xiolar> from the CD
[18:24] <mooded> Xiolar, if it looks like command-prompt, you fked something up during installation.. otherwise everythings ok and you have also a GUI
[18:24] <noodlesgc> goudkov, lsof for open files and smartctl for stats
[18:24] <luca9785> i have the "adduser" package but i need the gui that i find in ubuntu with classic installation
[18:24] <Xiolar> I do have the GUI
[18:24] <danub> how do i find out what my users guid/uid is?
[18:24] <Xiolar> the only thing I want to fix is my resolution
[18:24] <kicco> danub: that page
[18:25] <mooded> danub: run "id"
[18:25] <danub> kicco: but your good to go know right?
[18:25] <Xiolar> because now its only 640X480
[18:25] <luca9785> i must install on lite ubuntu without a complete desktop manager
[18:25] <Out_Cold> feel for ya Xiolar
[18:25] <goudkov> noodlesgc: thanks
[18:25] <mooded> danub, or "id <username>"
[18:25] <genii> danub: Almost certainly 1000:1000
[18:25] <luca9785> i install only gnome-core and gdm
[18:25] <MexTux> I need help!! I downloaded this theme --> http://ubuntusoftware.info/software/themes/metal-theme.so I have installed it but when the usplash screen appears it is not full screen. I would like to have it full screen. Is it possible??
[18:25] <jonathon_> akazawax,  the irrsi will not install may it be by another name?
[18:25] <luca9785> but i need a gui for manage users
[18:25] <danub> genii: nope, im 1000:0 :P

[18:26] <luca9785> irsii? ok thanks
[18:26] <mooded> danub, genii is so right ,)
[18:26] <Xiolar> So I got Ubuntu booted up right now, logged in and that stuff
[18:26] <noodlesgc> I thought it was irssi
[18:26] <scunizi> Jonathon_ ,  it's irssi NOT irsii or irrsi
[18:26] <luca9785> not find...
[18:26] <eventmaster> hello can somebody help me i have ClearChat PC Wireless this headset it doesnot working with skype
[18:26] <Out_Cold> i use irsii all the time.. it's irsii
[18:26] <danub> yea, but i goot tired of having to type in ter pass everytime i needed to apt-get or do something administrativer
[18:26] <Xiolar> how can I add my 1360X768 resolution?
[18:26] <jonathon_> Out_Cold,   lol it would not work before now it does. scunizi  i got it installing
[18:27] <noodlesgc> Out_Cold I am chatting using it right now, its irssi
[18:27] <Out_Cold> oh yea.. 2 s's 1 i
[18:27] <Out_Cold> had to double check
[18:28] <scunizi> Jonathon_,  if you've never used irssi before then this might be good reading.. even if you have used it but haven't used screen it's still good. http://quadpoint.org/articles/irssi
[18:28] <Xiolar> X.org Config GUI?
[18:28] <jonathon_> Out_Cold,  how do i open the gui of it?
[18:28] <Stalker72> I've uploaded a bunch of Linux distributions on The Pirate Bay and I need some help seeding ! :)
[18:28] <Stalker72> http://thepiratebay.org/user/Stalker72/
[18:28] <Out_Cold> irssi is not a gui application
[18:28] <mooded> Xiolar, i guess you already tried "system->settings->resolution" (or similar) ?
[18:28] <jonathon_> scunizi,  thanks.
[18:28] <scunizi> Jonathon_, just type irssi to get it started.. no gui.. all text based.. in terminal
[18:28] <noodlesgc> jonathon_ for a IRC client with a GUI try xchat-gnome
[18:28] <Xiolar> @mooded, yes It only shows up with two sh!tty resolutions
[18:28] <mooded> Xiolar, as im on german enviroment the menues are titled different for me
[18:28] <Out_Cold> you want a GUI irc chat client use xchat or pidgin
[18:28] <jonathon_> Out_Cold,  i was looking more for a gui one.
[18:29] <J2daosh> ok, still not working for me :(
[18:29] <J2daosh> i can access the file and run it now
[18:29] <mooded> Xiolar, what graphics card do you have ?
[18:29] <Xiolar> its ok mooded, your english is fine
[18:29] <scunizi> noodlesgc, jonathon_, xchat without the -gnome is better and should also be in the repos for Debian
[18:29] <Xiolar> a Nvidia
[18:29] <kri> jonathon_: get a terminal up and change the colors to black and type irssi you will learn in in not time
[18:29] <Xiolar> Geforce
[18:29] <J2daosh> but it wont let me run it because it has an error starting the daemon
[18:29] <Xiolar> got the latest drivers
[18:29] <kri> the number1 benefit with linux is irssi
[18:29] <goudkov> noodlesgc: that's not it. i need something to show me reading/writing which files makes the io system most busy at the moment.
[18:29] <Xiolar> because it advised me to download those
[18:29] <J2daosh> it works fine as root, cept for those annoying "we STRONGLY suggest you DON'T run as ROOT
[18:29] <J2daosh> messages
[18:29] <mooded> Xiolar, then please go to "system->system settings->hardware driver" or smth
[18:30] <scunizi> Xiolar, you might try installed "sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings" to help adjust the cards resolution
[18:30] <Stalker72> Can someone help me seed my Linux torrents? :)
[18:30] <mooded> Xiolar, install the nvidia-driver from there.. (177 is the recommended version iirc)
[18:30] <J2daosh> anyone run a TS server in linux here?
[18:30] <noodlesgc> goudkov, might not be exactly what you want, but try powertop
[18:30] <Xiolar> ok @scunizi ill try
[18:30] <jonathon_> scunizi,  the xchat is bugged
[18:30] <Xiolar> one moment
[18:30] <kri> Stalker72: help you with the actual seeding or get you going?
[18:30] <goudkov> noodlesgc: thanks. i'll check it out
[18:30] <IdleOne> !ot | Stalker72
[18:30] <kri> Stalker72: i use transmission but i want to go to libtorrent.
[18:30] <kri> have not installed it
[18:30] <Stalker72> kri: The actual seeding.. ;)
[18:30] <Out_Cold> jonathon_, make sure you use the 'Xchat' and not xchat-gnome
[18:31] <Stalker72> ubottu: OK!
[18:31] <scunizi> jonathon_ ,, how so?  I've been using it for years.. with every upgrade from ubuntu..
[18:31] <mooded> jonathon_, xchat is fine.. only xchat-gnome is a pita
[18:31] <Xiolar> Downloading and installing now :>
[18:31] <oscnayer> alguien habla español
[18:31] <Stalker72> kri: http://thepiratebay.org/user/Stalker72/
[18:31] <kri> Stalker72: can you guide me to a installation of libtorrent i help seed + something. :)
[18:31] <Stalker72> kri: PM?
[18:31] <kri> Stalker72: uuuw, tpb
[18:31] <kri> :D
[18:31] <Out_Cold> going to roll a fatty
[18:31] <jonathon_> scunizi,  give me a min i will give youa  copy of the bug. and i am trying to get irrsi set up please hang tight for me.
[18:31] <kri> http://thepiratebay.org/user/krille/ <- pro name
[18:31] <kri> :)
[18:31] <scunizi> Xiolar, you should also enable the hardware drivers mentioned to you before by mooded
[18:32] <AkariChan> kri: does it work?
[18:32] <Xiolar> ok installed and working, where to now?
[18:32] <kri> AkariChan: its compiling. :)
[18:32] <Xiolar> I got them working :)
[18:32] <AkariChan> excellent
[18:32] <Xiolar> those drivers
[18:32] <Stalker72> kri: Do you need help with getting libtorrent?
[18:32] <Xiolar> now iam in a low ress screen :P
[18:32] <scunizi> Jonathon_, k.. hopefully it's not an old bug..
[18:32] <kri> Well i think i can google it and go with some guide (cause i dont want to apt-get it) but it would be pleasent with help, yes.
[18:33] <sken> any clue why  i open my window my window flickers
[18:33] <mooded> Xiolar, if the drivers are indeed working and loaded you should be able to configure your nvidia-card x settings in "system->system settings->nvidia xserver settings" or smth
[18:33] <sken> dd
[18:33] <Stalker72> kri: I searched for libtorrent in Synaptic and I got Deluge BitTorrent Client
[18:33] <sken> d
[18:33] <Stalker72> kri: Is it that one?
[18:33] <scunizi> Xiolar, did you install the restricted drivers mooded mentioned?  if so in terminal type sudo nvidia-settings and the gui will appear for adjustment.
[18:33] <Xiolar> yes I did
[18:34] <kri> Stalker72: no.
[18:34] <Xiolar> but where do I go next?
[18:34] <Xiolar> iam in the NVIDIA X Server settings
[18:34] <Ximal> is there anyone here who might know how to host a tracker server for torrents or what it is called .. the server type or name ?
[18:34] <AkariChan> question: what's a good tool to record your destkop actions as a video file?
[18:35] <sken> hbhjhjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj
[18:35] <oliverwisler> hello
[18:35] <fosco_> AkariChan, gtk-recordmydesktop
[18:35] <Xiolar> I have a GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS Card
[18:35] <masterjamie> Hi everyone, I'm having trouble trying to pair my bluetooth mouse in Ubuntu 8.10.
[18:35] <AkariChan> fosco_: wonderful, thanks.
[18:35] <darrend> hi - how do I stop the CPU scaling under AC power?  I don't want it to use on-demand unless I'm on battery.  In gconf-editor (apps/gnome-power-manager/cpufreq I already have policy_ac=performance so no idea why it is scaling)
[18:35] <jonathon_> scunizi,  here is the bug and the other bug of when i tried to do the bug fix on it. http://pastebin.com/m7bf27903
[18:36] <scunizi> Xiolar, go to X server display  config then at the bottom choose advanced and see what it says in "Panning".. change it to what you need and make sure that Resolution is set to auto or the desired resolution.
[18:36] <Xiolar> ok :D
[18:36] <Xiolar> will try
[18:36] <noodlesgc> goudkov ok, just found this, try atop
[18:36] <genii> Ximal: If you have a webserver running the package name is libapache2-mod-bt
[18:36] <Newbee> hello
[18:36] <Ximal> thanks i think..
[18:37] <goudkov> noodlesgc: i'm checking powertop, doesn't seem like what i need, but a great tool. i think i'll be using it when running on battery. i'll check atop. thanks.
[18:37] <glacius> hey guys quick question how do i disable my touchpad on my notebook, it can be annoying
[18:37] <Ximal> but genii : will it change my www.server to a tracker server instead ?
[18:37] <sken> another question why when i open a window the window freeze or flicker
[18:37] <ironfoot_495> Hello I need some ideas on fixing my localhost. The problem is when I run http://localhost it comes back saying localhost not found. I've looked at a lot of similliar problems but still my localhost does,nt work.
[18:37] <Newbee> I have a problem with the networkmanager in kubuntu 8.10. It doesn't work with static ip adresses. It would be nice if anybody of you could help me.
[18:37] <sken> for a while
[18:37] <mooded> Ximal, there are plenty of trackers for dl.. i dont remember the name of a really good one anymore ,)) anyways, google for it .. you'll find loads of em
[18:37] <grendal_prime> hey guys im installing 8.10 on a dell 1100 laptop with intel video card, I get the insatall screen then the install progress indicator, then a black screen.  The system is loaded because i can alt+ctrl through the terminals but the xterms are just black.  is there something special i need to do to get x to read my vid card?
[18:37] <scunizi> jonathon_  never seen that and don't experience it on my system.. might be unique to his system and install.. he doesn't mention much in the way of particulars about his system and what's installed.
[18:37] <slowlearner> ironfoot_495 you need a webserver
[18:38] <genii> Ximal: It's just an apache2 plugin to extend the webserver. It won't prevent anything else you already have from running
[18:38] <ironfoot_495> slowlearner: I do have apache2?
[18:38] <craigtao> hi
[18:39] <TT> tao?
[18:39] <grendal_prime> the laptop was running debian etch before this.
[18:39] <Ximal> thanks genii i appreciate it ;)
[18:39] <ironfoot_495> slowlearner: is there something I'm missing???
[18:39] <scunizi> ironfoot_495, you might try typing in <IP_ADDRESS> instead of local host.. for some reason I have the same issue on my system.. you don't need a web server if it's not needed.. cups is at localhost:631 or <IP_ADDRESS>:631.. it's the server for your printing system.
[18:39] <goat_srv> ironfoot_495: is it running?  check in terminal command ps -aux
[18:39] <ischliky> anyone know why my sound would be disabled in totem, and music players wont load music anymore? it was working before and alsa seems to be fine
[18:40] <craigtao> Where have list SCIM-???  IMEngines
[18:40] <ironfoot_495> ok using ps -aux
[18:40] <mooded> ischliky, you installed another soundcard ? (like usb-headset for example?)
[18:40] <Xiolar> I cant click the damn thing
[18:40] <goat_srv> ironfoot_495: look for apache instances
[18:40] <Guest51975> Hello
[18:40] <slowlearner> ironfoot_495 why are you accessing localhost?
[18:40] <Xiolar> It keeps flipping around
[18:40] <scunizi> ironfoot_495, if you have apache installed try http://<IP_ADDRESS>:80
[18:40] <ischliky> no, there have been no hardware changes made(or software that i was aware of)
[18:41] <good> Hello
[18:41] <Xiolar> because the screen is too damn small
[18:41] <Newbee> If there is any problem with my English, I will try to improve my description
[18:41] <craigtao> SCIM IMEngines   where is list  ?
[18:41] <mooded> ischliky, hmm.. gnome-volume-control still works for the card ?
[18:41] <akazawax> hi I ran badblocks and the only output after it was done was this: 134217664
[18:42] <akazawax> what does this mean? is this an error code?
[18:42] <genii> Ximal: np
[18:42] <good> Hello
[18:42] <good> good moring
[18:42] <good> every one........
[18:42] <good> Long time no see.
[18:43] <goat_srv> akazawax: that is likely the block number of the bad block, but i'm not familiar with that utility
[18:43] <omucuvaca> hello, i need a way to save terminal commands in a file that will run when i double click it...what extension does it need? something like .bat in windoze
[18:43] <good> How are you ?
[18:43] <ischliky> mooded, it seems so, it look broken at all
[18:43] <ischliky> doesnt*
[18:43] <grendal_prime> anybody have experience with a straight up black screen install with 8.10?
[18:43] <jonathon_> how do i join freenode in irssi?
[18:43] <goat_srv> !absg | omucuvaca
[18:43] <Freku> dont need extension
[18:43] <good> I'm doing great.
[18:43] <RolfCoptr> omucuvaca: you can call it whatever you want as long as u set it +x
[18:43] <scunizi> !bash | omucuvaca
[18:43] <goat_srv> !abs | omucuvaca
[18:43] <mooded> omucuvaca, name the file as you want.. chmod 700 myfile ... and the file should have "'#!/bin/sh" as first line..
[18:43] <dr_willis> omucuvaca,  also start the first line with #!/bin/bash     Or you may get odd results.
[18:44] <dr_willis> omucuvaca,  or sh :) either one.. depends on your needs.
[18:44] <omucuvaca> thanx guys :D
[18:44] <AkariChan> question: how do i convert an ogv to an avi file?
[18:44] <ironfoot_495> goat_srv: Here the command you gave me.http://pastebin.com/m64a15c13
[18:44] <scunizi> AkariChan, maybe avidimux
[18:44] <AkariChan> thanks, scunizi
[18:44] <grendal_prime> ok trying safe graphics mode we shall see how that goes
[18:44] <scunizi> AkariChan, np..
[18:45] <jadams> does compiz work out of the box in intrepid on ati hardware?  I know late in the beta it didn't
[18:45] <good> How are you ?
[18:45] <ironfoot_495> scunizi: I type in <IP_ADDRESS> and still get no results other than not found.
[18:45] <dr_willis> AkariChan,  or ffmpeg, or mencoder
[18:45] <good> I'm doing great.
[18:45] <goat_srv> ironfoot_495: in the same term type ping localhost
[18:45] <mooded> ischliky, and the sound isnt muted ? also did you check the configuration of the player so that it uses the right card ?
[18:45] <turtle_> wine not working for me
[18:45] <masterjamie> I'm having trouble regarding BT in 8.10. I've tried to pair my mouse with my PC, but it says "Device paring failed."
[18:45] <goat_srv> ironfoot_495: ctrl+c will stop that command
[18:45] <jonathon_> scunizi,  i got xchat gnome working good in term.
[18:45] <good> What's up ?
[18:45] <jonathon_> thank you.
[18:45] <scunizi> ironfoot_495, try putting a colon and 80 at the end.. like.. <IP_ADDRESS>:80
[18:45] <ironfoot_495> goat_srv: ok
[18:45] <goat_srv> ironfoot_495: whats the result?
[18:45] <good> oh.Nothing special.
[18:45] <regebro> is there a way to enable restricted drivers directly on boot with the LiveCD?
[18:45] <jrib> masterjamie: check bugs.ubuntu.com?
[18:45] <scunizi> Jonathon_ you mean you started it in terminal and it opened the gui?
[18:45] <good> Hi.long time no see.
[18:45] <mooded> ischliky, did you try to set it in "system->audio" as your standard-output device ? could you successfully test it there ?
[18:46] <regebro> I can't even find a documentation of what paremeters there are for the boot
[18:46] <jrib> regebro: remaster the live cd?
[18:46] <jonathon_> yes scunizi
[18:46] <ischliky> mooded, yes it worked say 2 hours ago, but now music players just skip songs instantly, almost like the codec is gone now?
[18:46] <good> So far so good.
[18:46] <sinan> what's the difference between "free" and "available" when checking a partition using the system monitor?
[18:46] <good> So far so gooooooooooooood
[18:46] <slowlearner> ironfoot_495 do you have a webserver or something thus the need to access localhost on the browser?
[18:46] <scunizi> jonathon_... good it should also be located off Applications>Internet
[18:46] <goat_srv> slowlearner: yes, he has apache2 running
[18:46] <ReyRey> I just used DVDDecrypter through Wine to backup my movie.. now i can't find the files???? where on ubuntu is the "C" drive?
[18:47] <ironfoot_495> scunizi: Not Found The requested URL / was not found on this server.
[18:47] <jrib> ReyRey: wine uses ~/.wine/drive_c/
[18:47] <regebro> jrib: Which sounds almost as complicated as repartitioning the HD and installing it properly, judging from the docs. :-/
[18:47] <mooded> ischliky, maybe a permission problem (i cant explain what might have caused it) ..
[18:47] <goat_srv> ironfoot_495: cat /etc/hosts
[18:47] <goat_srv> ironfoot_495: paste that output
[18:47] <jrib> regebro: what are you actually trying to accomplish?
[18:47] <mooded> ischliky, are you in group "audio" (run : groups <your-username>
[18:47] <zabalon> hola
[18:47] <regebro> I'm trying to get Wifi working with the livecd. There is a restricted driver, and I enable it, but nothing happens.
[18:48] <scunizi> ironfoot_495, sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[18:48] <zabalon> hello
[18:48] <jrib> regebro: "nothing happens"?  Is the module loaded?  Have you tried just logging out and back in so nm notices?
[18:48] <ischliky> mooded, i dont see an audio when i do that
[18:48] <ironfoot_495> goat_srv: I get a weird resonse???
[18:48] <regebro> jrib: I don't know what more I would need to do, so I wanted to have the restricted driver enabled at boot up, to see if that made a difference.
[18:49] <goat_srv> ironfoot_495: from cat /etc/hosts ?
[18:49] <regebro> jrib: It didn't load, no, but it loaded if I modprobed it.
