[04:32] <dr_willis> Flamekebab,  a lot of it depends on the exact make/modle of laptop and its chipset.
[04:32] <dr_willis> Flamekebab,  and if it even works or not.
[04:32] <beesandflowers> sethk: i think i am not properly explaining myself (or i do not understand you). after my ubuntu installation i used the "places" menu in my ubuntu panel to add access to some shares on the server. using nautilus i can access all files as the shares appear on the left panel. so file access is not my problem. but when i use openoffice and the file/open command, then that sharenames are not...
[04:32] <beesandflowers> ...appearing. so therefore i wonder, do i need to use a mount command to mount those shares so that they appear in the local directory structure (my ubuntu directory structure) under that /mnt subdirectory?
[04:32] <Flamekebab> dr_willis, it does work! I had it working earlier
[04:32] <Flamekebab> hehe
[04:32] <Flamekebab> but then I installed powersaved, which broke it. Uninstalling it fixed the problem
[04:33] <Flamekebab> someone then recommended I try powernowd
[04:33] <Flamekebab> but that broke it again
[04:33] <dr_willis> Flamekebab,  thats a good sign then.
[04:33] <dr_willis> :)
[04:33] <Flamekebab> and then uninstalling powernowd didn't fix it
[04:33] <dr_willis> heh.. 'when in doubt dont mess with somthing that works'
[04:33] <frying_fish> pulani: if no-one else has answered you question look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[04:33] <dr_willis> :P
[04:33] <Flamekebab> dr_willis, learnt that the hard way!
[04:33] <Flamekebab> so now I'm trying to figure out what powernowd might have uninstalled
[04:34] <Deanodriver> BlueEagle, i've just got defaults set in the options on my fstab
[04:34] <sloof3> During an Ubuntu server install I can still set up a dual boot?
[04:34] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: Weird.
[04:34] <Deanodriver> tell me about it
[04:34] <dr_willis> sloof3,  yes.
[04:34] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: try: sudo -i
[04:34] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: that should give you a root shell
[04:34] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: then try the chmod again.
[04:35] <sloof3> dr_willis: Will it be automatic like with the deskrop installation?
[04:35] <Deanodriver> thanks
[04:35] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: if that doesn't work then try the chmod on the parent and then the parent and then the parent until it works
[04:35] <dr_willis> sloof3,  should be. it may ask a few more questions
[04:35] <sethk> sloof3, yes, grub should autoconfigure the same way on the server installation
[04:35] <Deanodriver> thing is, other files in the directory work fine
[04:35] <sloof3> dr_willis: sethk Thanks
[04:36] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: I beg your pardon?
[04:36] <Deanodriver> in the directory where the problematic files are, other files in the directory don't have said problem
[04:36] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: and what is the name of the file that is causing the problem again?
[04:37] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: or names (use pastebin if there's a lot of them)
[04:37] <Deanodriver> BlueEagle, check the dialog window :)
[04:37] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: which dialog window?
[04:38] <Deanodriver> oh
[04:38] <pulani> thx
[04:38] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: A) Don't message people w/o asking permission first and B) You need to register with nickserv to /msg people.
[04:38] <everton137> Hi, how can I block in Firefox, advertisings in Flash, like this one: http://www.cartacapital.com.br/index.php?funcao=exibirMateria&id_materia=3446 ?
[04:38] <Deanodriver> ok
[04:38] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: and don't flood me with a list of files please.
[04:38] <Deanodriver> ok
[04:39] <BlueEagle> !pastebin
[04:39] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[04:39] <Deanodriver> why are you interested in filenames?
[04:39] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: Because they may or may not be legal.
[04:39] <Deanodriver> ls
[04:39] <Deanodriver> ok
[04:39] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: and I only need to know about those whose mode you want to change.
[04:39] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: Well actually you can put the `ls -l` on pastebin
[04:39] <Deanodriver> ok
[04:40] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: that will give us something to compare with
[04:40] <Deanodriver> stuff it, i'll just delete them
[04:40] <Deanodriver> they're unimportant files anyway
[04:40] <pulani> is there any other way to adjust your mouse sensitivty and acceleration besides the Mouse Preferences? When i slide the accel all the down, the mouse is as a brick even with the sensitivity put to the max
[04:40] <Deanodriver> too much effort at 1am :)
[04:40] <DrFinn> need help with this: my login screen resolution is like 1280x1024x60 hz ! The default desktop resolution is 1024x768x85 Hz ..how do I change the login screen resolution to 1024x768x85hz ?
[04:40] <magus_x> i can upgrade my breezy with dapper without losing my files?
[04:40] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: quitter. :p
[04:41] <Deanodriver> ah well
[04:41] <jrib> magus_x: yes, you should be able to.  But you should have backups anyway just in case
[04:41] <halorgium> magus_x: change the sources then do a apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:41] <jrib> !upgrade > magus_x
[04:41] <Deanodriver> probly something dodgy with the hdd anyway
[04:41] <magus_x> halorgium, : how big it is you know?
[04:41] <BlueEagle> drfinn: remove all entries for 1280x1024 in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
[04:41] <Deanodriver> it's had a hard life
[04:42] <BlueEagle> deanodriver: no point in making it any harder.
[04:42] <DrFinn> the max resolution I found in xorg.conf is 1024x768
[04:42] <stefg> DrFinn: if you don't need the 1280 res, the easiesst way would be to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and disable the checkmarks for the higher resolutions in the process
[04:43] <stefg> DrFinn: your monitor ist telling the Xserver by DPMS that it can handle 1280...
[04:44] <snorp|out> dudes.
[04:44] <Aar0n> I am using a fresh install of ubuntu and trying to install ndis wrapper. I run the command "make distclean" but it gives an error like "bash: makenot found" how can I fix this please?
[04:44] <sethk> DrFinn, when X decides that there is nothing usable in xorg.conf, it falls back to a list of standard resolution/vertical freq settings.
[04:44] <Deanodriver> i'd better get to bed, i think
[04:44] <snorp|out> apache2ctl -t
[04:44] <snorp|out> Syntax error on line 2 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dav_svn.load:

[04:44] <Deanodriver> thanks for the help anyway :)
[04:44] <jpozlovsky> hi all
[04:44] <snorp|out> anyone seen that?
[04:44] <snorp> I'm on dapper
[04:44] <sethk> snorp|out, use ldd to find out what the symbol is.
[04:45] <snorp> sethk: ldd doesn't bitch
[04:45] <snorp> sethk: does ldd find unresolved symbols?
[04:45] <frank_b> I've just installed the xmms-mplayer plugin to be able to see videos on xmms using mplayer, but am not able to do so. do I have to configure anything?
[04:45] <snorp> or just unresolved libs?
[04:45] <lkz> Hi, how do I configure the mouse buttons in gnome? I'm trying to disable the paste feature of the middle (wheel) button
[04:46] <jpozlovsky> Question: I have USB Bluetooth dongle connected to my notebook. Is here any possibility how to turn it completely off (but letting it physically connected to computer ;))? Thanks
[04:47] <sethk> snoops, yes
[04:47] <sethk> snoops, sorry
[04:47] <sethk> snorp, yes
[04:47] <BlueEagle> Answer: You can stop the bluez-utils to make bluetooth unavailible.
[04:47] <BlueEagle> I think
[04:48] <sethk> snorp, I believe ldd -r will show symbols.  in general, ldd lists libraries, not symbols.
[04:48] <sethk> snorp, I need to check, however.  ldd on Solaris definitely lists undefined symbols, but ldd in linux is a totally different program and may behave differently.
[04:48] <jpozlovsky> BlueEagle: thanks for reply. Will try this
[04:48] <snorp> sethk: aha
[04:48] <snorp> sethk: ap_filter_flush
[04:48] <snorp> and a bunch of other ap_* functions
[04:49] <sethk> snorp, ok, and what program is this, again?
[04:49] <snorp> sethk: it's the svn module
[04:49] <snorp> for apache
[04:49] <snorp> it worked up until recently
[04:49] <snorp> I think there was an apache update, no?
[04:49] <sethk> snorp, that really sounds like mixed up libraries.
[04:49] <snorp> hmm
[04:49] <sethk> snorp, possibly the apache update requires an svn update
[04:50] <snorp> apt says everything is updated :/
[04:50] <sethk> snorp, or, perhaps svn isn't yet available for the apache update
[04:50] <sethk> snorp, I would back out the apache update.
[04:50] <sethk> snorp, I never update something merely because an update is available.  In this case, though, you have a (relatively) easy way to back out the update.
[04:51] <jikanter> ks
[04:51] <snorp> sethk: ugh, backing it out didn't help
[04:52] <sethk> snorp, that's very odd.  Let me check on which library those functions are supposed to be in.  Although, I may get the answer "none" because I haven't updated.
[04:52] <sethk> snorp, possible the reverse, and we need to back out an svn update?
[04:52] <RockMusic> Anybody ever try burning the desktop live CD to a CDRW?
[04:52] <BlueEagle> snorp: It's a good thing you're not running a develotestruction server then. :)
[04:52] <Rygel> Hi
[04:53] <snorp> BlueEagle: oh I totally am :)
[04:53] <BlueEagle> snorp: ouch
[04:53] <snorp> BlueEagle: yeah.
[04:53] <snorp> BlueEagle: it's my linode
[04:53] <RockMusic> The cdrw won't boot, and I've tried it on two different computers.
[04:53] <BlueEagle> snorp: Well a good friend once recomended me to read thedailywtf and never do that sh*t. :)
[04:54] <snorp> BlueEagle: nod
[04:54] <snorp> I live life on the edge
[04:54] <snorp> <- Xtreme
[04:54] <Rygel> I have a problem with networking. On a neatly configured PC as a User Mode Linux Host, the Clients using Ubuntu always start their eth count by 2 - which is the logical continuation of the eth0, eth1... row of the host. This problem does not occur with other distros. Any ideas, someone?
[04:54] <packets> might someone point me to where I could better understand how to add a networked printer?
[04:54] <BlueEagle> snorp: And boy are you bleeding for it now. :p
[04:54] <Aar0n> How can I install make?
[04:54] <snorp> BlueEagle: yes.
[04:55] <BlueEagle> rockmusic: cdrws are often harder to read for ordinary cd-rom drives. Especially the older ones.
[04:55] <BlueEagle> rockmusic: Also: Did you burn the .iso file onto the disc as a file or did you burn the content of the .iso file to the disc?
[04:55] <RockMusic> I burned the content.
[04:55] <RockMusic> I burned as a CD image.
[04:56] <BlueEagle> rockmusic: Well then it might be that the cd-rom is unable to read it or that the machine is not set up to boot from a CD.
[04:56] <tarzeau> anyone play http://bub-n-bros.sf.net #bub-n-bros with me?
[04:56] <BlueEagle> rockmusic: I assume you've checked the BIOS for that already so my advice is to burn it on a regular cdr. Preferably one with a blank base.
[04:57] <RockMusic> The Cd-rom can read it once booted into Windows, but I know that doesn't mean anything for a bootup.
[04:57] <sethk> RockMusic, cd-rw not booting is not an infrequent occurance.  burn a cd-r
[04:58] <RockMusic> Ok lol.
[04:58] <stray_77> rockmusic, check out smart boot manager floppy, itll let you boot cds that wont boot when they should
[04:58] <RockMusic> Where do I find smart manager floppy?
[04:58] <RockMusic> Never heard of it.
[04:59] <stray_77> This nifty little floppy bootdisk allows selecting various devices to boot from a menu, and even allows booting a CD-ROM in machines where the BIOS doesn't support it. If your BIOS supposedly supports booting from a CD-ROM, but that feature isn't working, this disk might be just what you need!
[04:59] <stray_77> http://linux.simple.be/tools/sbm
[04:59] <stray_77> it worked for me
[04:59] <RockMusic> Cool!
[05:00] <magus_x> cool
[05:01] <magus_x> and usefull
[05:01] <cyber3> hello everyone
[05:01] <botch> what does "couldn't find RGB GLX visual" mean?
[05:01] <cyber3> I have a cybercafe, and want to put some linux machines
[05:01] <cyber3> I choosed ubuntu
[05:01] <sethk> RockMusic, try stray_77 's suggestion
[05:01] <RockMusic> That's what I'm doing :)
[05:02] <cyber3> is there any way to block the desktop from a windows 2000 os..?
[05:02] <botch> Xorg.log sais: direct rendering enabled
[05:02] <sethk> cyber3, I'm not sure what you mean
[05:02] <corndog_> Anyone here can help with a dual monitor question? I'd like windows to load in a default monitor rather than spanned across the two.
[05:02] <botch> and libgl was loaded without errors
[05:02] <cyber3> I have a program that in certain time blocks the xp desktops
[05:02] <sethk> cyber3, you mean you want to lock the desktop after a timeout?
[05:03] <cyber3> yes
[05:03] <cyber3> from a win2k
[05:03] <sethk> cyber3, yes, you can do this.   you set it up in the screensaver configuration
[05:03] <sethk> cyber3, but what do you mean by "from a win2k"?
[05:03] <stray_77> hehe i was gonna ask that too
[05:04] <cyber3> I have a program that from a win2k locks the xp desktops..
[05:04] <kaot> botch: you try googling that error message?  I've found it's quicker to try that than to hope someone has come across it before.
[05:04] <cyber3> I don't know if this can be done from win2k to ubuntu
[05:04] <kaot> botch: your nick happens to be the name of one of the best bands evar, btw.
[05:04] <botch> kaot: i did, found a whole lot, but no answers
[05:04] <dr_willis> corndog_,  a lot of those desktop/monitior issues are related to the video card driver and window manager, and  if you are using twinview or xinerama
[05:05] <sethk> cyber3, you mean that you run a program on one win2k machine to lock desktops on other machines running xp?
[05:05] <botch> kaot: never heard about a band called botch
[05:05] <cyber3> yes
[05:05] <cyber3> can this be done tu ubuntu?
[05:05] <sethk> cyber3, I don't know of anything built in to do that.  It would be easy enough to write a program to do it.
[05:05] <kaot> botch: they're kind of obscure unless you're into hardcore/heavy/underground-ish stuff, but they're legendary in that scene.
[05:05] <corndog_> dr_willis: twinview, i was reading up and was hoping there was a xorg.conf change that could set a default monitor
[05:05] <corndog_> something about allowing windows to maximize per monitor
[05:06] <botch> kaot: http://www.myspace.com/botch
[05:06] <sethk> corndog_, that can be done with xinerama.  not sure about twinview
[05:06] <simplydazed> Is there a fix for running conky with XGL?
[05:06] <corndog_> ah, does this option seem familiar...
[05:06] <corndog_> Option         "NoTwinViewXineramaInfo"
[05:07] <lukus001_> I've just installed mencoder from the ubuntu reporsitory, and I get this in the consol. Exiting... (error parsing cmdline) -  Is this a bug or dodgy cammands?
[05:07] <kaot> botch: I'd check that out but I stay away from myspace under all circumstances  :\
[05:07] <dr_willis> lukus001_,  what are you running from the command line exactly?
[05:07] <choi2k> anybody know how to play wmv9 viedo under ubuntu?
[05:08] <sethk> corndog_, I don't know enough about twinview to have a useful opinion on that.  I used twinview for two days, then ditched it in favor of xinerama.
[05:08] <sethk> corndog_, for reasons that don't necessarily apply to you.
[05:08] <stefg> !restricted > choi2k
[05:08] <botch> kaot: there you can listen to botch
[05:08] <songo> how to chmod some files from ---------- to -rw-r--r-- ?
[05:08] <kaot> hehe
[05:08] <sethk> songo, chmod o+rw filename
[05:08] <sethk> songo, chmod a+r filename
[05:08] <toddobryan> I installed the ibmj2sdk package (because I'm on PPC) and now I get "JVM not found: libjvm.so" errors whenever I try to run Java.
[05:08] <madewokherd> chmod 644 filename
[05:08] <corndog_> sethk: gotcha, ill read up and decide if i should make the switch myself... is xinerama for nvidia and ati?
[05:08] <bkudria> what is the name of the bot?
[05:08] <dr_willis> twinview - is good for setting up a lot of things. it has some features not found in xinerama. of course it is also the nvidia-answer-to-xinerama :P
[05:08] <sethk> songo, sorry, u+r, not o+r

[05:09] <madewokherd> come on, it's 644 :|
[05:09] <dragonkh> anyone know how to make the 7950gx2 run in twinview ?
[05:09] <bkudria> stefg: thanks
[05:09] <sethk> corndog_, xinerama is at the next level up, and doesn't rely on any low level driver behavior
[05:10] <sethk> corndog_, so xinerama can be used with any graphics card
[05:10] <songo> sethk, how can you tell it? what's the trick?
[05:10] <corndog_> ah ok, thanks
[05:10] <sethk> corndog_, well, any card that supports dual monitors.  :)
[05:10] <dr_willis> lukus001_,  sounds almost like its not liking the commandline. perhaps check out some examples. that looks 'normal to me. but ive not used it much
[05:10] <BMac2> I am having some permission errors with mysql trying to set up mythv
[05:10] <lukus001_> dr_willis okay, thanks
[05:10] <BMac2> cannot seem to connect to the database as the mythtv user
[05:10] <BlueEagle> cyber3: http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/Kiosk-HOWTO.html might be helpful
[05:10] <BMac2> if I go directly to mysql and log in as root
[05:10] <sethk> songo, you run that command.  for file /x/y,  you would do     chmod a+r /x/y; chmod u+rw /x/y
[05:10] <BMac2> I can see the tables
[05:10] <BeepAU> hey everyone, could someone please help me install cdemu? the instructions says it's simple, but i'm not up on alot of the terms. so, could someone please help me?
[05:11] <sethk> songo, you can use a list of filenames, so you don't need to do it for each file
[05:11] <sethk> songo, and you can do a directory and all files in the tree under that directory using chmod -R
[05:11] <BeepAU> dr_willis -- cd emu is a virtual drive, you can use it to read disc images and such.
[05:11] <BeepAU> !cdemu
[05:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cdemu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[05:12] <AltF4> Hey hey
[05:12] <AltF4> I need help,
[05:13] <songo> sethk, yes I know that. but how do you know that is u-rw or o+rw or o+r?
[05:13] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  and what part are ya having the issue with?
[05:13] <sethk> songo, oh,  the permissions are user, group, and other.   so u+rw means rw for user
[05:13] <AltF4> Go to I need help
[05:13] <sethk> songo, a means everyone, so chmod a+r  gives you ---r--r--r
[05:13] <BeepAU> dr_willis -- i've never complied anything before. i don't understand it.

[05:13] <AltF4> Go to http://pastebin.ca/140557
[05:14] <AltF4> and tell me if the hardware is compat.
[05:14] <AltF4> please
[05:14] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  you will need to apt-get install the source for your kernel.. i forget the command for that. :) and install the build-essential package as well
[05:14] <SpComb> AltF4: grow up, please, no need to spam
[05:14] <dr_willis> !kernel
[05:14] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[05:14] <songo> sethk, ok tanx
[05:14] <AltF4> sorry, Palm Keyboard
[05:15] <BeepAU> dr_willis -- i've got the archive i downloaded from the site, isn't that enough? the stuff in apt-get can be quite old i hear.
[05:15] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  or ya could convert the bin/cue to an iso. then mount the thing like you would any other iso.
[05:15] <bkudria> is there an ndiswrapper howto?
[05:15] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  you need the source for the kernel you ARE RUNNING now. :)
[05:15] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  more up to date source. may not work right.
[05:16] <BeepAU> dr_willis -- i don't get you. i need the source for ubuntu?
[05:16] <dr_willis> the kernel source
[05:16] <AltF4> can someone please help!
[05:16] <BeepAU> dr_willis -- can you explain to me what that is?
[05:16] <sethk> AltF4, I see a memory module and a cd drive, so I'm completely confused about what you might be asking
[05:16] <dr_willis> you are making a driver/module that will use the kernel source. and every time ya update the kernel. you will need to recompile that module .
[05:16] <stefg> !ndsiwrapper
[05:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ndsiwrapper - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[05:16] <sethk> ndis, not ndsi
[05:16] <AltF4> sethk, I mean ae they compat as in run an OS
[05:17] <xanatos_> hello
[05:17] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  some 'modules'  to be compiled must have the kernel source for them to access/use as well. the verion of the source code. must match your currently running kernel, that you are making the module for.
[05:17] <wweasel> Hey all. I'd like to get Firefox to open .torrent files with uTorrent, a wine app. How could I get Firefox to Open With "wine /path/to/file/uTorrent.exe"
[05:17] <xanatos_> you know how I can install vmware??
[05:17] <xanatos_> some mirror?
[05:17] <bkudria> stefg: i looked: those all say: go to the system menu and then networking and enable your card
[05:17] <bkudria> stefg: they are no help
[05:17] <BeepAU> dr_willis -- ok, well how do i get the source for my kernel?
[05:17] <Aar0n> How can I install make on ubuntu?
[05:18] <sethk> AltF4, for the dvd writer, I would search the archives of the cdwrite mailing list
[05:18] <stefg> bkudria: so what exactly is you problem?
[05:18] <Clinton__> good morning (EDT people) - I'm having an issue with no sound on my flash, sound for all other applications work just fine - but not on the flash plugin with Firefox.  How can I fix this?
[05:18] <tarzeau> Aar0n: apt-get install make
[05:18] <dr_willis> !source
[05:18] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[05:18] <AltF4> sethk, chekc PM
[05:18] <dr_willis> Hmm.. i foreget how to get the kernel source.  some apt-get command.
[05:18] <Aar0n> tarzeau I don't have an internet connection on the laptop
[05:18] <untung> Hi, how can I mount FAT32 hardrive in ubuntu?
[05:18] <BeepAU> xanatos_ -- i just installed vmware, what problems are you having?
[05:18] <tarzeau> Aar0n: not my problem, is it? from cd?
[05:18] <xanatos_> with mount
[05:18] <Clinton__> untung: mount -t vfat [drive]  [mount-dir]
[05:18] <SpComb> AltF4: only the mobo matters, really. Do a bit of googling on the subject
[05:19] <Aar0n> tarzeau: Is it on the ubuntu CD?
[05:19] <rummi1> has anyone here installed the mach64 drivers?
[05:19] <xanatos_> yes mount maybe type dev and mount point
[05:19] <etzerd> hello everyone
[05:19] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  its a lot easier to just convert the .cue/bin to iso. unless ya got a hunderd of the things.
[05:19] <tarzeau> Aar0n: no idea
[05:19] <SpComb> hmm, dunno about CDR and linux though, that might matter as well...
[05:19] <bkudria> stefg: i want to get my broadcom card working ...the bcm43xx drivers don't support my card
[05:19] <Aar0n> tarzeau: I have the tar of make 3.81 but I don't know how to install it
[05:19] <xanatos_> BeepAU -- I never install a vmware, you install by apt-get install or you downoad the tar file?
[05:20] <tarzeau> Aar0n: read the INSTALL file?
[05:20] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  bchunk binfile.bin cuefile.cue myisofile.iso    - after you install bchunk.
[05:20] <wweasel> Hey all. I'd like to get Firefox to open .torrent files with uTorrent, a wine app. How could I get Firefox to Open With "wine /path/to/file/uTorrent.exe"
[05:20] <untung> Clinton_: how can i see the drive letter?
[05:20] <Aar0n> Sorry for being so dumb tarzeau, thanks :-)
[05:20] <BeepAU> xanatos_ -- meh. i'd like to install the program. it's more convenient.
[05:20] <cyber3> is there a command to lock ubuntu gnome desktop from shell?
[05:20] <stefg> bkudria: so your best bet is to enter 'ubuntu' and ther model of your card into google and see what it spits out
[05:21] <Clinton__> untung: it isn't a drive letter under linux - it is of the type /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda2 or increase the numbers, or if it's a second HDD, it could be /dev/hdb1
[05:21] <BeepAU> dr_willis -- meh. i'd like to install the program. it's more convenient.
[05:21] <xanatos_> ho yea
[05:21] <Clinton__> good morning (EDT people) - I'm having an issue with no sound on my flash, sound for all other applications work just fine - but not on the flash plugin with Firefox.  How can I fix this?
[05:21] <BeepAU> xanatos_ -- disregard the last message. i got it from apt-get.
[05:21] <dr_willis> BeepAU,  ya got some work to do then. install the kernel source, and build-essential, then follow the guide.  someone in here will rember the right way tog et the source. or check the wiki/forums
[05:22] <bkudria> stefg: thanks
[05:22] <BeepAU> dr_willis -- ok then. well, it's late. i'll try it tomorrow.
[05:22] <stefg> Clinton__: you need to install alsaoss and add FIREFOX_DSP="aoss" in /etc/firefox/firefoxrc
[05:22] <xanatos_> I have to add a source in sources.list? because I did apt-cache search vmware but I never have a great result :X
[05:22] <xanatos_> jeje
[05:22] <Clinton__> stefg: thank you
[05:22] <nox-Hand> Where do I put the .config when making a new kernel? I have a .config I want to replace..
[05:23] <xanatos_> yes I belive you replace the .config file
[05:23] <richiefrich> Skaag kowl man
[05:23] <BeepAU> xanatos_ -- sudo apt-get install vmware-player
[05:23] <sethk> nox-Hand, copy in the .config to the root of the kernel source tree, then do    make oldconfig
[05:24] <richiefrich> nox-Hand u can use that
[05:24] <xanatos_> hoo, BeepAU :)
[05:24] <nox-Hand> richiefrich, Yeah, just didnt know where to put it :)
[05:24] <nox-Hand> thanks sethk :D
[05:24] <richiefrich> nox-Hand /usr/src/linux/.config

[05:27] <marcelino> How do you lowercase file names?
[05:27] <jmelloy> so, here's the deal.
[05:27] <jmelloy> Trying to triple boot os x, ubuntu, and windows.
[05:27] <ompaul> marcelino, ehh do what with lower case?
[05:27] <jmelloy> yesterday, had os x and ubunut installed
[05:27] <wweasel> Could someone help me with getting firefox to open files with a specific command? "Open With" makes me choose a helper application. I want "wine /path/to/file/uTorrent.exe"
[05:28] <jmelloy> popped in the windows disc, pointed it at the appropriate partition, and it borked with a corrupt dll file.
[05:28] <marcelino> ompaul: i have files in a directory that have all uppercase names i want to convert them to all lowercase.
[05:28] <jmelloy> That suggests it's looking at the wrong partition, but now ubuntu isn't showing up in my boot menu.
[05:28] <stefg> wweasel: you need to write a script to do that
[05:28] <sethk> marcelino, use the \l  (lowercase) syntax in a sed regulard expression
[05:28] <Seveas> !windows
[05:28] <jmelloy> so I put in the live cd and am trying to figure out how to look at the various hard drive partitions to see if there's data there.
[05:28] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. Also see http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 - !equivalents - http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[05:28] <sethk> wweasel, I believe firefox uses the desktop settings, so look at your desktop file associations
[05:29] <wweasel> stefg: That seems elementary to you, but I've never written a script. How do I go about writing this?
[05:29] <ompaul> marcelino,  http://desktux.xs4all.nl/scripts/lowercase.php
[05:29] <Aar0n> I am trying to install make but it says something like "error no compatible C complier in $PATH"
[05:29] <cyber3> can I lock desktop from command line?
[05:29] <stefg> Seveas: utorrent is running (at last :-) ) with wine... a blessing in the absence of a good client for Linux :-)
[05:29] <bretzel> !synaptic
[05:29] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[05:29] <FurryNemesis> anyone know where I can find a downloadable manual for bash scripting?
[05:30] <marcelino> ompaul and sethk thanks!
[05:30] <sethk> cyber3, yes
[05:30] <cyber3> how ... :) ?
[05:30] <wweasel> sethk: System > Preferences > Preferred Applications only do Internet and E-Mail
[05:30] <Seveas> FurryNemesis, tldp.org, search for 'advanced bash scripting guide'
[05:30] <bretzel> uh... synaptic unusable anymore ? ( trapped with libvte4 error )
[05:30] <jmelloy> how do I look at sda4 from the live cd?
[05:30] <sethk> wweasel, I use kde, sorry
[05:30] <sethk> jmelloy, depends on what type of partition it is
[05:31] <nakkoo> hola
[05:31] <wweasel> sethk: Alright. Hmmm...well, where's the GNOME people? :P
[05:31] <cyber3> sethk Do you what command to use..?
[05:31] <jmelloy> well, it's on a macbook.
[05:31] <Aar0n> I am trying to install make but it says something like "error no compatible C complier in $PATH" any ideas???
[05:31] <jmelloy> iti should be ext3
[05:31] <cyber3> hola nakkoo
[05:31] <jmelloy> unless windows decided to kill it
[05:31] <sethk> cyber3, I'll look.  I know it's possible, although I haven't done it for a few months
[05:31] <jmelloy> which is what I want to check
[05:31] <xanatos_> jmelloy what, do you like to see the information in the sda4 with a live cd?
[05:31] <stefg> wweasel: you have to make yourself familiar with some concepts, like passing parameters and so on... have a read at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html
[05:31] <sethk> jmelloy, try this:    file /dev/sda4
[05:31] <LudwigVanHatten> hello
[05:32] <cyber3> if you find it please let me know<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:32] <LudwigVanHatten> looking for an application like "autoroute" in Windows
[05:32] <xanatos_> jmelloy only mount the partition
[05:32] <cyber3> thanks sethk..?
[05:32] <digitalhav0c> im having a problem with ubuntu on my laptop everytime i unplug from ac the laptop goes into suspend or something like that and i have to reboot to get back in?
[05:32] <bretzel> uh... synaptic unusable anymore ? ( trapped with libvte4 error )
[05:32] <jmelloy> mount /dev/sda4 ?
[05:32] <digitalhav0c> anyone got and suggestions?
[05:32] <jmelloy> "block special (8/4)"
[05:32] <wweasel> stefg: whoa, you sent me to a 14 chapter document. I just need a script that passes "wine /path/to/file/uTorrent.exe"
[05:32] <FurryNemesis> bretzel, fix in forums
[05:32] <nakkoo> hi I get this problem that says that I can't connect with my modem because /etc/resolv.conf doesnt exist or does't have the proper permissions
[05:32] <cyber3> sethk<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if you find how.. thanks..
[05:33] <JamieBE> is there a "tree" terminal equivelant like the DOS one?
[05:33] <xanatos_> jemlloy yes, you want int to partition sda4 or what do you want to do
[05:33] <FurryNemesis> ty Seveas
[05:33] <sethk> cyber3, you use the xlib function XLockDisplay and XUnlockDisplay
[05:33] <bretzel> FurryNemesis: thanks, ...
[05:33] <FurryNemesis> np
[05:33] <xanatos_> nakkoo create the resolve.conf
[05:33] <nakkoo> well I can connect the modem, start it and then it says 'connection to ...' for ever... is that related to /etc/resolv.conf
[05:33] <sethk> cyber3, if you have X dev packages installed, do   man XLockDisplay
[05:33] <BlueEagle> wweasel: I'm sorry I just got in. Why do you want to run the windows uTorrent.exe?
[05:33] <jmelloy> it's not in fstab or mtab
[05:33] <cyber3> I dont know really.. I am new in linux
[05:33] <stefg> wweasel: and i still think you should learn scripting :-) instead of having me just chewing the stuff before you (freely translated from german :-) )
[05:33] <nakkoo> xanatos_ I think its already created
[05:34] <cyber3> I know that I have ubuntu and gnome installed..
[05:34] <wweasel> stefg: An english expression is "spoon feeding"
[05:34] <cyber3> I dont know about details yet.. :)
[05:34] <xanatos_> nakkoo then make chmod 644 resolve.conf
[05:34] <JamieBE> Does anyone know how I can safely mount an external NTFS USB drive within Ubuntu as writable?
[05:34] <digitalhav0c> cyber3 apt-get install azuerus
[05:34] <bretzel> ...and another thing: dosemu unusable also -- not found in forums ...
[05:34] <wweasel> BlueEagle: np. I already am running uTorrent.exe under wine. I'd like to set firefox to open .torrent files with "wine /path/to/file/utorrent.exe"
[05:34] <nakkoo> xanatos_ thanks I will try this
[05:34] <digitalhav0c> god torrent client
[05:34] <pekay> Hi, I recently installed on my Kubuntu installation GNOME, and want to switch back to KDM instead of using GDM, can I do this?
[05:34] <cyber3> what is azuerus for..?
[05:34] <digitalhav0c> torrents
[05:35] <cyber3> ok
[05:35] <jmelloy> or transmission
[05:35] <stefg> wweasel: but it's easy... three lines, no conditionals.. if you know DOS-Batches you can do it
[05:35] <BlueEagle> wweasel: sounds like something out of rubegoldber.com tbh. :)
[05:35] <cyber3> I have asuerus already
[05:35] <cyber3> it is installed
[05:35] <digitalhav0c> so why  are you trying to install utorrent?
[05:35] <cyber3> no..
[05:35] <richiefrich> cyber3 azuerus is for torrents
[05:35] <cyber3> my question is..
[05:36] <digitalhav0c> go ahead
[05:36] <sethk> cyber3, are you asking about what I said about X dev packages?
[05:36] <cyber3> is there a way to lock gnome desktop from command line?
[05:36] <wweasel> Well, it seems like more work than installing Azureus. But it's a much better client in my opinion, and the opinion of many others.
[05:36] <sethk> cyber3, it's at the X level, not the gnome level
[05:36] <adminx> Hey, found a extention for Firefox that adds Ubuntu Forums as a Firefox menu item. Here is the link:
[05:36] <adminx> https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2302/
[05:36] <cyber3> ok
[05:36] <richiefrich> cyber3 u can lock it yes. use xscreensaver
[05:36] <sethk> cyber3, and you do it with a call to XLockDisplay.  The documentation for XLockDisplay is  in the X dev packages
[05:36] <jmelloy> I like azureus, but it can be a resource hog.  It gives by far the best information about the state of the torrent
[05:36] <cyber3> ok.. thanks sethk
[05:37] <pekay> how can I change login managers?
[05:37] <cyber3> I will read about it..
[05:37] <richiefrich> information means nothing itk's the speed at which they come in at
[05:37] <wweasel> jmelloy: It's probably been a while since you've used Windows? uTorrent is an excellent alternative to Azureus, but it is 1 mb filesize, and it's resource utilization is very low.
[05:37] <sethk> cyber3, if you run synaptic, and, in the search dialog, enter    x   dev     (that is, x, space, dev)  you'll get packages with both x and dev in the name
[05:37] <jmelloy> I practically never use windows.
[05:37] <richiefrich> pekay install a another one and what are u using now ?  gdm ?
[05:37] <cyber3> ok
[05:37] <jmelloy> Except at work, where they dont' encourage a lot of torrenting.
[05:37] <wweasel> jmelloy: There ya go. But it runs perfectly under Wine.
[05:38] <snoops> umm.. not sure if this is the right place to ask - if wrong, could I be redirected? Anyway I'm very keen to write a very lightweight bot for irc - just allowing me to do a few simple thngs, so wondering if there are some guides on that. I think I'd like to either code it in ruby or python, so really I guess what're my options?
[05:38] <digitalhav0c> yeah jmelloy
[05:38] <pekay> richiefrich: using GDM, installed Gnome on top of my Kubuntu, and switched somehow to using GDM =p, I wanna use KDM again
[05:38] <richiefrich> wweasel  i must look at utorrent i use rtorrent atm
[05:38] <wweasel> snoops: wrong place to ask
[05:38] <sethk> cyber3, for the command that richiefrich told you, the packages is xscreensaver-gnome
[05:39] <wweasel> richiefrich: www.utorrent.com
[05:39] <nakkoo> xanatos_ is this already -rw-r--r
[05:39] <sethk> cyber3, that should pull in other required packages as dependencies
[05:39] <cyber3> ok
[05:39] <snoops> wweasel which leads to the second part of that question :P
[05:39] <lamego> snoops, http://python-irclib.sourceforge.net/
[05:39] <snoops> ah thanks lamego
[05:39] <nakkoo> xanatos_ is this already -rw-r--r-- chmod 644 ? Because that's what resolv.conf has before aplying chmod 644
[05:40] <lamego> nakkoo, it is
[05:40] <zerby> !xgl
[05:40] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[05:40] <richiefrich> pekay sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm  or sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[05:40] <wweasel> Ok, Firefox can open .torrent files with the "default application". Where do I modify the default application for .torrent files in Gnome? it's not Preferred Apps
[05:40] <nakkoo> lamego mmm... so what error can it be that I can't the modem started?
[05:40] <richiefrich> pekay or edit-->  sudo nano -w /etc/X11/default-display-manager
[05:40] <stefg> wweasel: so the trick is to tell firefox to 'open' the torrent-file with your script, which does nothing else than getting the file into /tmp and and starting wine with utorrent and pass the filename as a positional paramter
[05:40] <xanatos_> and now you can brouse
[05:40] <xanatos_> ??
[05:40] <lamego> wweasel, just use the "Open With" option on nautilus
[05:40] <pekay> richiefrich: thanks alot :]
[05:40] <richiefrich> pekay np man
[05:40] <Spartacus_UO> wweaselrd driver and window manager, and  if you are using twinview or xinerama
[05:40] <Spartacus_UO> [12:04:56]  * Joins: songo<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:40] <Spartacus_UO> [12:05:08]  <sethk> cyber3, you mean that you run a program on one win2k machine to lock desktops on other
[05:41] <wweasel> stefg: I haven't written a script.
[05:41] <nakkoo> xanatos_ it's on another computer that I have that error
[05:41] <richiefrich> sethk ill take note im so used to arch and gentoo.. :P  i just run xscreensaver in those..
[05:41] <xanatos_> hooom
[05:41] <richiefrich> wweasel ty
[05:41] <xanatos_> nakkoo maybe you can edit manually the resolv.conf
[05:42] <slytherin> Anyone here using blender on dapper? Mine crashes frequently
[05:42] <sethk> richiefrich, the same here, I was just providing the package names to install xscreensaver
[05:42] <xanatos_> vi /etc/resolv.conf
[05:42] <cyber3> well will be off a moment, i am going to install xscreensaver
[05:42] <richiefrich> sethk ahh... ok then
[05:42] <richiefrich> sethk so u to run gentoo ?
[05:42] <sethk> richiefrich, it might have a different name here, but I don't believe so.
[05:42] <digitalhav0c> how do i check which wireless network
[05:42] <stefg> wweasel: so this will be you first :-) You take an editor and start with typing '#!/bin/sh' (which is an acronym for '/b/efore /i/ /n/oticed, /s/h*t /h/appened )
[05:42] <digitalhav0c> im on through the command line?
[05:43] <nakkoo> xanatos_ what do you mean, like putting the ip and so on?
[05:43] <donrarib> hi everyone
[05:43] <sethk> richiefrich, I deal with some gentoo machines at work, but I don't allow any new gentoo installations
[05:43] <xanatos_> nakkoo yes
[05:43] <donrarib> i have a ubuntu breeze
[05:43] <xanatos_> maybe
[05:43] <richiefrich> sethk o.O  :(
[05:43] <nakkoo> xanatos_ mmm.. interesing
[05:43] <xanatos_> sometimes I did it :P
[05:43] <donrarib> and i put some mirrors on the update manager
[05:44] <donrarib> the mirrors are the brazil
[05:44] <xanatos_> and it's all :D
[05:44] <sethk> richiefrich, I checked, and, yes, the xscreensaver utility, /usr/bin/xscreensaver, is part of the package "xscreensaver"
[05:44] <richiefrich> kowl
[05:44] <sethk> richiefrich, and xscreensaver is a dependency of xscreensaver-gnome
[05:44] <kings> hi
[05:44] <donrarib> but now, the window of update manager close instantle
[05:45] <dragonkh> hi
[05:45] <DeNiaL> hi all
[05:45] <DeNiaL> someone has compiz on amd 64 running ?
[05:45] <donrarib> what i had wrong?
[05:45] <wweasel> stefg: So, if I get it, my script will have "#! /bin/sh" on the first line and "wine /path/to/file/uTorrent.exe" on the second
[05:45] <digitalhav0c> anyone can tell me a lighter torrent client other than ktorrent ?
[05:46] <digitalhav0c> im trying to find something to replace azureus
[05:46] <Number_5> bittornado
[05:46] <digitalhav0c> java ewww
[05:46] <donrarib> and i need update my breeze for dapper
[05:46] <digitalhav0c> that supports multiple torrent and resume
[05:46] <wweasel> digitalhav0c: I am using uTorrent in WINE.
[05:46] <ozma> is there a torrent client like utorrent for ubuntu?
[05:46] <slytherin> anyone using blender here?
[05:46] <digitalhav0c> wweasel really
[05:46] <donrarib> but the update manager dont aswer
[05:46] <wweasel> ozma: uTorrent + Wine = uTorrent for Linux.
[05:46] <digitalhav0c> lol
[05:46] <sethk> donrarib, why do you need to upgrade to dapper?
[05:46] <brotherJohn1234> digitalhav0c: have you tested http://www.torrentflux.com/ ?
[05:46] <ozma> nice, i'm somewhat new to linux
[05:46] <slytherin> ozma: is the default torrent client so bad?
[05:47] <digitalhav0c> brotherJohn1234, no
[05:47] <ozma> so i will do some reading on wine
[05:47] <Number_5> opera has a built in torrent app heh
[05:47] <wweasel> hold on, I had a step by step tutorial for getting it setup yesterday. let me pull it up for you two
[05:47] <donrarib> sethk, my version of ubuntu is a breeze
[05:47] <digitalhav0c> brotherJohn1234, check on it now
[05:47] <ozma> no slytherin it's not
[05:47] <sethk> donrarib, yes, and why do you need to upgrade?
[05:47] <ozma> but i do like the features in utorrent
[05:47] <ozma> opera does?
[05:47] <digitalhav0c> yeah ozma me too
[05:47] <donrarib> some updates
[05:47] <ozma> thanks weasel
[05:47] <wweasel> hold up, getting the guide
[05:47] <steveire> I have some files containing 'one two foo three'. How do I change all of the files to 'one two bar three'? I thought I could use sed, but it outputs to stdout rather than editing the file
[05:48] <digitalhav0c> torrent flux
[05:48] <stefg> wweasel: right... but you need to pass the name of the torrent file to utorrent to make it work... positional parameter is the magic word (%1). and scripts need to be +x and and either in your $PATH or referenced by full filename
[05:48] <donrarib> sethk, what the version of ubuntu you like?
[05:48] <digitalhav0c> it kind off out  the way for right ow untill i setup a webserver on a different box
[05:48] <wweasel> ozma, digitalhav0c: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=191161
[05:48] <sethk> donrarib, I'm keeping my production machines on breezy for at least another few weeks.
[05:48] <noiano> hello
[05:48] <noiano> everybody
[05:48] <sethk> donrarib, In general, I never upgrade just because an upgrade is available
[05:48] <ozma> awesome wweasel
[05:49] <BlueEagle> Why doesn't rytmbox recurse into subdirectories when I choose "ADd directory"?
[05:49] <ozma> i will put some work in on that today
[05:49] <wweasel> ozma: if you have any trouble, just ask me here, I did it last night :)
[05:49] <ozma> u run into any problems with it so far?
[05:49] <noiano> does anybody use kopete for im chat?
[05:49] <justin_> How would I get a "joystick", or any other command for that matter -- to load at boot time?
[05:49] <Frostbite> Does anybody know if Intel 3945abg cards work with NetworkManager?  iwconfig works fine (using it now), but NetworkManager says it can't find any wireless cards
[05:49] <donrarib> yes, but now
[05:49] <Frostbite> Wireless Connection Manager in gnome is fine also
[05:49] <wweasel> ozma: well, it's a bit ugly, but it works perfectly. the icons on the tabs don't work, but the app is fully functional.
[05:49] <donrarib> how i update my system?
[05:50] <sethk> justin_, you add it to a script in /etc/rc.d
[05:50] <tengil> anyone successfully compiled fish on an amd64?
[05:50] <ozma> that's pretty much all you need
[05:50] <wweasel> stefg: you say it needs to be in my $PATH. where is that?
[05:50] <justin_> sethk, What script?, rc.d itself?
[05:50] <sethk> justin_, no, rc.d is a directory
[05:51] <sethk> justin_, typically you would create a script in /etc/init.d, and create links in the /etc/rc.d tree for those run levels that should execute the script
[05:51] <justin_> I do not have rc.d - I have rc0.d to rc5.d
[05:51] <sethk> justin_, right
[05:51] <sethk> justin_, sorry,  0 through 5 are run levels 0 through 5
[05:51] <sethk> justin_, most linux uses /etc/rc.d/rc0.d , rc1.d, etc.
[05:52] <stefg> wweasel: $PATH is all the dirs in which the shell looks for executables... just like in good old Autoexec.bat :-)... don't worry, place it in your homefolder or .wine-folder and just make sure to point firefox there
[05:52] <cyber3> back.. I try to use gnome-screensaver-command --lock
[05:52] <ozma> what do you guys like for an mp3 player?
[05:52] <sethk> justin_, however, my answer was correct, even though my directory names were a bit off  :)
[05:52] <cyber3>   but it says that can not connect to the D-BUS daemon
[05:52] <minerale> I installed and then removed the kubuntu package, albeit the blue 'kubuntu' splash screen has stuck, does anyone know how to change that? or the name of the package that handles the fancy bootup ?
[05:52] <justin_> Sethk, OK but I got my soundcard to start on everyboot - I had to do it manually since my card was not detected.. but I do not remember created a script ..
[05:52] <digitalhav0c> thanks wweasel
[05:53] <wweasel> digitalhav0c: np.
[05:53] <sethk> justin_, you might have used some tool that added it to a script for you.
[05:53] <nox-Hand> Does anyone know how I can get my pen-mouse to work in Linux?  I added it to "modules" something, ok same pricipale I guess
[05:53] <donrarib> sethk, but this case, how do i solve this problem of the update manager?
[05:53] <sethk> justin_, yes
[05:53] <steveire> what are runlevels, and how can knowing about them be an advantage to me?
[05:53] <justin_> sethk, Have any links on how to script faqs etc so I can read more?
[05:53] <wweasel> digitalhav0c: what I am working on here with stefg is trying to get firefox to auto-magically open .torrent files with uTorrent.exe.
[05:54] <donrarib> since i cant use almost tools
[05:54] <sethk> justin_, there must be a bunch of them.  I don't know off the top of my head, though.  anyone?  a url about startup scripts for justin_ ?
[05:54] <donrarib> missing lots of things
[05:54] <TheEric> hello all
[05:54] <sethk> donrarib, what happens why you try to run the update manager?
[05:54] <justin_> Ahh well, Ill get to google thanks for the hel sethk  ;D
[05:55] <TheEric> i did some updates and now gnome won't load (im in cli) does anyone know a good console log reader, and what log i should look for?
[05:55] <justin_> help* even
[05:55] <wweasel> stefg: I put a %1. but Firefox isn't filling the variable. uTorrent tells me it can't open file '%1'
[05:55] <donrarib> it closes
[05:55] <sethk> TheEric, logs are just files, read them in any editor.   /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog, to start
[05:55] <romper> hi
[05:55] <TheEric> yeah i just figured they had some fancy shmancy viewer for them ;-)
[05:56] <cypher1> does not totem-gstreamer play dvds ??
[05:56] <sethk> TheEric, they might, I don't know.  I wouldn't use one if it existed, so I never looked.
[05:56] <void^> TheEric: you're probably interested in /var/log/Xorg.0.log if the login screen doesn't even come up
[05:56] <stefg> wweasel: http://www.linuxcommand.org/wss0130.php
[05:56] <minerale> Does anyone know the name of the file/package of the that provides the fancy loading screen as ubuntu is booting up and shuting down ? It's stuck to kubuntu and I want to change it back to ubuntu
[05:56] <TheEric> login comes up but gnome won't load right after i login
[05:57] <wweasel> stefg: I'm not learning to script in Bash. I wouldn't mind some spoon feeding.
[05:57] <romper> i just read a shelll script tutorial. anyone knows where to find some exercises for practising?
[05:57] <sethk> TheEric, that's not likely to be in the X log, but it isn't impossible.  Look at the last few lines of the X log to be sure.
[05:57] <void^> TheEric: look at .xsession-errors in your user's home directory
[05:57] <wweasel> romper: can I give you an excercise? I am trying to do something that needs a really REALLY simple script, but I don't want to learn how.
[05:57] <sethk> TheEric, then look for permissions errors, or any other errors, in messages and syslog.  do ls -ltr /var/log   to find out which logs have changed most recently
[05:57] <sethk> brb
[05:58] <minerale> Would I have better luck posting my question on the forum?
[05:58] <wweasel> minerale: I think it's Splashy.
[05:59] <romper> what's that wweasel?
[05:59] <stefg> wweasel: the syntax  should  rad like 'wine ~/.wine/drive_c/program\ files/utorrent.exe ${1}'
[05:59] !alindeman:*! Hi all.  We're going to restart a server in a few minutes.  Should only affect about 250 users.  Thanks!
[06:00] <TheEric> it seems gdm had a problem loading glcore library
[06:00] <dr_willis> heh - ive used utorrent with wine.. just a few issues - but it worked
[06:00] <wweasel> romper: stefg just helped me. sorry, I have no clue where to find excercises.
[06:01] <romper> ok ty anyway
[06:01] <wweasel> dr_willis: yep, i don't like the fact that icons don't work, but that's minor. and now I have firefox opening .torrent files with uTorrent.
[06:01] <Rygel> I have a problem with networking. On a neatly configured PC as a User Mode Linux Host, the Clients using Ubuntu always start their eth count by 2 - which is the logical continuation of the eth0, eth1... row of the host. This problem does not occur with other distros. Any ideas, someone?
[06:01] <wweasel> stefg: Thanks so much. Is there are recommended place to store this file?
[06:01] <dr_willis> wweasel,  that - i aint futgured out how to do yet.. i normally save the .torrents anyway :P
[06:02] <wweasel> dr_willis: I normally figure that if I need it, i'll go get it again.
[06:02] <stefg> wweasel: either /usr/local/bin for use of all users, or I'd just keep it in .wine, for your personal use
[06:02] <wweasel> dr_willis: stfg just helped me getting it to work with firefox. you need a script
[06:02] <digitalhav0c> wweasel, have yall figured it out  because i would be intrested in it also
[06:02] <scott__> what is the command to reconfigure X11?
[06:02] <dr_willis> wweasel,  sounds like a WIKI page ideas to me!
[06:02] <dr_willis> :P
[06:03] <Aar0n> hey
[06:03] <wweasel> digitalhav0c: Yep. I can guide you through it.
[06:03] <scott__> i tried "dpkg-reconfigre xorg-server
[06:03] <wweasel> dr_willis: Ya think? I can put this up on the wiki
[06:03] <Aar0n> I have installed Ubuntu onto my laptop but it doesn't recognise my ethernet port. How can I fix this??
[06:03] <jrib> scott__: that's the right command, what happened?
[06:04] <jrib> scott__: except, "reconfigure", not "reconfigre"
[06:04] <xolot1> my laptop came with an IR remote, how can i figure out the model (for LIRC)?
[06:04] <scott__> jrib it said that xorg-server was not installed
[06:04] <minerale> wweasel: ah I found, it's package name is usplash and it's packaged in kubntu-usplash-graphics
[06:04] <dr_willis> wweasel,  may as well.. considuering all the bad wiki pages. :P
[06:04] <jrib> scott__: oh oops, xserver-xorg
[06:04] <dr_willis> wweasel,  ive been using ktorrent mainly. but the silly thing keeps my cpu pegged at %99 due to some bug.
[06:04] <scott__> ok let me try that one
[06:04] <wweasel> digitalhav0c: We're creating a script for Firefox to execute when opening a .torrent file. Create a new blank file, name it what you want.
[06:04] <digitalhav0c> wweasel, Can you give me sec
[06:04] <lkz> Hi, how do I configure the mouse buttons in gnome? I'm trying to disable the paste feature of the middle (wheel) button
[06:05] <digitalhav0c> trying to get utorrent working
[06:05] <wweasel> digitalhav0c: sure.
[06:05] <xolot1> my laptop came with an IR remote, how can i figure out the model (for LIRC)?
[06:05] <scott__> jrib that was it! thanks
[06:05] <jrib> scott__: np
[06:05] <Aar0n> anyone?
[06:06] <DeNiaL> hi all
[06:06] <Aar0n> hi
[06:06] <DeNiaL>  someone has got compiz on ubuntu amd 64 ?
[06:06] <xolot1> my laptop came with an IR remote, how can i figure out the model (for LIRC)?
[06:07] <jpozlovsky> Is it possible to send "USB connect and disconnect events" manually to specific port?
[06:07] <Aar0n> No one knows. You've asked three times.
[06:08] <stefg> So the problem with utorrent is that you can't have firefox pass the filename as a parameter directly to wine, coz wine expects the name of the win-binary as the paramter... so you have to write an 'arbitrator' that takes the parameter from firefox and starts wine with parameter 'utorrent' and passes the filename-paramter to the win-executable (which was wine's parameter...)
[06:09] <TheEric> does anyone think re-installing gnome might fix it not loading, all i can see is glcore not loading
[06:09] <sladen> minerale: usplash is the program, the other is the graphics file
[06:09] <sladen> TheEric: no, not related to gnome, related to the X server
[06:10] <sladen> TheEric: what driver is the X server using, is it falling back to VESA?
[06:12] <local> i setup raid1 with mdadm  then made a partition md0p1 with cfdisk... md0 is in /dev but there is no md0p1   whats going on here?
[06:12] <TheEric> sladen: how can i check?
[06:12] <SpComb> stefg: thats trivial one-line bash script, no?
[06:12] <bobovski> Hi all, I'm having a flash problem with firefox
[06:13] <bobovski> when I'm viewing flash media, say on you tube or something, and try to go to a different page firefox fgreezes
[06:13] <bobovski> I've already checked the wiki
[06:13] <bobovski> now I want to try uninstalling flash and reinstalling
[06:13] <stefg> SpComb: given that you should have '#!/bin/sh', at the start and 'exit 0' at the end... that make 3 lines :-)
[06:13] <bobovski> so, I removed libflash-mozplugin and flashplugin-nonfree
[06:14] <SpComb> local: linux doesn't always notice when you create a new device, your options are some udev stuff or reboot
[06:14] <bobovski> that should have disabled flash on firefox. But it didn't and still has the same problem
[06:14] <[sharma] > i have to execute "sudo ifup eth0" on every startup - is there a way that ubuntu does that automatically ?
[06:14] <bobovski> so, now I check about:plugins in firefox
[06:15] <local> SpComb, i did reboot.. hmm windows lol.. .i rebooted ubuntu.. what is this about create a new device?  how? what?
[06:15] <bobovski> and it's listing libflashplayer.so...should I just get rid of that
[06:15] <SpComb> local: if you use udev, it detects the devices and then creates the files for them in /dev/, you have to make it detect your new partition somehow
[06:15] <local> SpComb, what kinda udev stuff? have a link?
[06:16] <SpComb> nope
[06:16] <local> SpComb,  i think i have udev.. how do i check
[06:16] <nox-Hand> Does anyone know how I can get my pen-mouse to work in Linux? You know, the ones that just look like a pen with a cord you just drag over your table
[06:16] <local> SpComb, i rebooted.. still no md0p1
[06:16] <SpComb> oh... is the raid device partitionable?
[06:17] <SpComb> dunno :)
[06:17] <local> SpComb, yes.. i partitioned it with cfdisk /dev/md0
[06:17] <BlackSolaris> himitsu_, I have been trying to get my Airport Extreme Wireless to work with my iBook running Dapper all night long.  I've followed the tutorial at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper, and still no luck.  Any ideas specifically for Airport Extreme?
[06:17] <SpComb> well, I've never played around with partitionable raids so I don't know how they work
[06:17] <BlackSolaris> whoops... I dunno why it listed a user name there
[06:17] <local> SpComb, how did you setup yours?
[06:18] <SpComb> lvm
[06:18] <local> hmmm  never played with lvm... whats the benifit?
[06:18] <SpComb> the size and number of 'parititions' is very flexible
[06:18] <SpComb> you can increase and decrease and move stuff around easily
[06:18] <SpComb> and also give stuff logical names
[06:19] <SpComb> /dev/raid5/var instead of /dev/sda3
[06:19] <local> nice
[06:19] <SpComb> well, /dev/md1p3
[06:19] <SpComb> booting off it isn't such a great idea though, apparently, dunno...
[06:20] <SpComb> I boot off a raid1 and and then attach the rest with lvm-on-raid5
[06:20] <FlaCour> i have breezy server .... when i type "date" it display not correct ... how to change time from console ?
[06:20] <local> software or hw raid1?
[06:20] <SpComb> sw
[06:20] <SpComb> I have two RAID1s, a RAID5 and a RAID0 on three disks :)
[06:20] <BlackSolaris> does anybody have any ideas as to how to get Airport Extreme Wireless working on an iBook G4?
[06:20] <SpComb> can't do that with hardware raid
[06:20] <local> FlaCour,  could be your timezone
[06:20] <local> man date
[06:20] <stefg> FlaCour: sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com
[06:20] <local> man locales
[06:21] <FlaCour> no idont use ntp
[06:21] <local> FlaCour, maybeyou should ;)
[06:21] <FlaCour> i disable that i want change it by manual
[06:21] <local> man date
[06:21] <local> SpComb,  so grub can boot of sw raid1?
[06:22] <SpComb> well, it can boot off the various compnents of it, of course
[06:22] <FlaCour> local : is that command only to display the "date format" ?
[06:22] <redcard> So what do people use as their podcatchers /podcasting clients?
[06:22] <SpComb> each component of a raid1 is useable by itself
[06:22] <local> FlaCour,  google it ;)    thats the one i use
[06:22] <local> SpComb,  component? huh?  i dont know much about raid
[06:22] <FlaCour> sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com <-- work
[06:22] <FlaCour> lolz
[06:22] <FlaCour> dunno why
[06:23] <FlaCour> Sun Aug 20 23:22:40 WIT 2006 <-- WIT ??? i'm at WIB how to change it ?
[06:23] <FlaCour> jakarta using WIB ....
[06:23] <stefg> sudo tzconfig
[06:24] <SpComb> the debian installer's partition manager was really cool... I managed to setup my raid and lvm stuff just by poking around in the UI, it was awesome
[06:24] <FlaCour> Your current time zone is set to Asia/Jakarta <-- this is correct but it display WIT ...
[06:24] <Terlmann> 800 people ...*freaks out*"WHhhaaaaaggghh!!"
[06:24] <SpComb> although it does mean that I'm not not entirely sure how it's laid out
[06:25] <redcard> Anyone?
[06:25] <SpComb> Terlmann: 800 idlers :)
[06:25] <HeathenDan> how do i full screen diablo 2 with wine?
[06:25] <lamego> ?? anyone
[06:26] <USER019772> ytfitvfgggggggguygbuyh
[06:26] <FurryNemesis> anyone know if I can get a transcript of the latest #ubuntu-classroom lesson?
[06:26] <Raziekiel> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts
[06:28] <Terlmann> Spcomb: I never got the gui-based partitianer to work right the first time... always took three times ,doing the same thing.... LTS sucks, no gcc, no lib, .... and even 5.12 stunk when the via update *fixed *my ac'97... that was useless...
[06:28] <tombuntu> what was the name of that program that allowed me to edit my vbios so that i could actually get 1280x768 on my intel chipset
[06:28] <redcard> Darn.  That's the one program I'm missing.. a good podcast client
[06:28] <FurryNemesis> Raziekiel, ty
[06:28] <Raziekiel> np mate
[06:28] <Bazzi> redcard: amarok?
[06:28] <SpComb> Terlmann: hmm, I'm talking about the debian etch installer now
[06:29] <tombuntu> redcard: ephpod/
[06:29] <Terlmann> ?etch?
[06:29] <Raziekiel> Anyone know how to adjust Ram timings if my bios doesnt have anything?
[06:29] <Terlmann> what how where..
[06:29] <redcard> Bazzi: I've moved away from Amarok cause it bogs the system
[06:29] <Bazzi> :o
[06:29] <redcard> tombuntu: Hmm.. in repos?
[06:30] <lamego> Raziekiel, this not an hw support channel :P
[06:30] <sharperguy-away> tombuntu, "sudo dpkg-reconigure xserver-xorg"?
[06:30] <Raziekiel> lamego: lol kk, just thought I'd ask real fast
[06:30] <tombuntu> sharperguy-away: sure that never works
[06:31] <Terlmann> audo reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:31] <sharperguy-away> oh, hmm
[06:31] <tombuntu> i had it fixed on kubuntu before because after reconfiguring xorg it was learned the item wasnt in the vbios
[06:31] <Terlmann> blado sudo meado whatebver
[06:31] <tombuntu> theres a progam called i815 or something that adds the item to your vbios so you CAN use that resolution
[06:31] <redcard> tombuntu: ephpod doesn't seem to be for linux
[06:32] <SpComb> Terlmann: oh, etch is a debian distro, the current testing
[06:32] <SpComb> well, debian version
[06:32] <tombuntu> redcard: http://pag.csail.mit.edu/~adonovan/hacks/ipod.html
[06:33] <Terlmann> should i brave it, is it better-looking than ubuntu?
[06:33] <james_xxx> does anyone in here have experience with usb wireless adapters? i have a wusb54g v.4 linksys wireless adapter hooked to this PC, but the PC keeps crashing when i am in kubuntu.... i don't know if it does this in windows or not, and i don't know if the usb wirelss adapter has anything to do with it
[06:33] <Terlmann> james_xxx i have same hardware
[06:34] <SpComb> Terlmann: oh, debian is quite different from ubuntu, mainly for non-gui servers...
[06:34] <Terlmann>  on other comp
[06:34] <chx> do nvidia cards work with aiglx now?
[06:34] <redcard> tombuntu: Checkin it out :)
[06:34] <james_xxx> Terlmann: have you had any connectivity issues or problems with crashing?
[06:34] <tombuntu> http://my.opera.com/unsecure/blog/show.dml/320833 checking this out myself
[06:34] <Terlmann> First you must get the files WUSB20XP.sys and WUSB54G.inf from your install disk or from Linksys.com
[06:35] <james_xxx> Terlmann: do you have wusb54g or wusb54gs?
[06:35] <IndyBC> How can I set X-Chat to run in the trace? (Like Gaim)
[06:35] <lamego> IndyBC, you mean, on the tray ?
[06:35] <IndyBC> yes
[06:35] <Terlmann> gs
[06:35] <james_xxx> Terlmann: i have the adapter working, but i think it is crashing my system
[06:36] <lamego> IndyBC, install the xchat-systray package
[06:36] <IndyBC> lamego: Fine. Thank you :-)
[06:36] <cp> is my ubuntu desktop install  suppose to sit on     Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.   For a long time? it showed the setup up to Configuring X and now it just sits there. Anyone ??
[06:36] <exs>  Hello guys. I'm currently in the process of installing my graphic chipset drivers (openchrome) here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome and I'm on the part where it says "Run autogen.sh with the prefix option so that the driver is being installed in the correct directory". Should I change it to "./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/exs" because "exs" is the actual name for my user account? Thanks.
[06:36] <james_xxx> Terlmann: ok... this one is a g, without the s, and it was easy to get working.... but, i have a GS as well, maybe i should try it again. i could never get it to work
[06:36] <lamego> cp, probably it is not able to detect and configure for your video card
[06:37] <lamego> excs, /usr is not for user related directories
[06:37] <lamego> exs, you should keep whatver /usr path is on the procedure
[06:37] <cp> hmm

[06:47] <javiolo> stefg with that could I backup a osx computer on my net ?
[06:47] <TheEric> hey dones anyone know a good console mp3 player
[06:47] <lamego> acon_, and yes you can access to a windows share using an smbclient, which does not required mounting to a local filesystem
[06:47] <bobovski> jrib: now firefox hangs randomly when I leave a page with flash content

[06:47] <javiolo> stefg yes Mac OS X
[06:47] <TheEric> dr_willis: does that have a library and stuff
[06:47] <redsoxfan90> were can i get it to work????
[06:48] <stefg> javiolo: sorry, wrong channel, this is #ubuntu
[06:48] <jrib> bobovski: apt-cache policy firefox, can tell you available versions
[06:48] <lamego> Xplicit, you should run windows programas on windows, and linux programs on linux

[06:48] <lamego> TheEric, you should install those on your wine environment
[06:48] <haasteem> Xplicit: i believe you can share configuration files, there was a story on that in Linux Journal
[06:48] <bobovski> jrib: ok, so let me askl a question about apt-get
[06:48] <dr_willis> TheEric,  you dident ask for that. You asked for a PLAYER. :P it plays songs. :) install it and see. or check freshmeat.net
[06:49] <bobovski> jrib: when I apt-get install firefox
[06:49] <stefg> javiolo: the ubuntu machine can act as a server... but backup is a client side thing, you cant expect ubuntu to know how to correctly restore an OSX partition
[06:49] <Aar0n> Okay I have plugged in my PCMCIA wifi card and one light is on. Network manager detects it as wlan0. How can I scan for wireless networks?
[06:49] <cyber3> how to run gnome-screensaver from command line?
[06:49] <bobovski> jrib: that just installs the newest version listed here, 1.2.dfsg+<IP_ADDRESS>-0ubuntu6.06.1 right?
[06:49] <Symgeosis> Anybody know how to solve this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21218
[06:49] <cyber3> I have an d-bus error
[06:49] <Timmy|GDS> So i guess the repos are down?
[06:50] <Symgeosis> It's a problem with Network manager. I can connect without NM.
[06:50] <Warbo> Can anyone help with my Wifi? Ubuntu locks up when I click "configure" and I have to kill the power
[06:50] <jrib> bobovski: yes, you can do 'sudo apt-get install firefox=VERSION' though
[06:50] <Xplicit> thx haasteem thats what i was hoping to be able to do
[06:50] <redsoxfan90> warbo your not helping me?
[06:50] <redsoxfan90> you asked me for my patience?
[06:50] <javiolo> stefg so Ubuntu cant connect to my os x and copy certain folder every x days ??
[06:50] <cyber3> fail to connect to d-bus daemon
[06:50] <Timmy|GDS> So are the ubuntu repositories down, or is it my problem?
[06:50] <lamego> Symgeosis, that means you are running a script which was built for redhat systems
[06:50] <bobovski> jrib: ok, from the version table, how do I tell which version to type in?
[06:50] <Symgeosis> I have had this problem for over a month. It's annoying to have to use dhclient.
[06:50] <Warbo> redsoxfan90: Well, have you tried a DRI driver? I use one
[06:50] <Symgeosis> lamego, it's the default script that comes with Ubuntu.
[06:50] <bobovski> is it the entire string?
[06:51] <lamego> Timmy|GDS, there is tens of ubuntu mirrors...
[06:51] <cyber3> gnome-screensaver from command line (failed to connect to d-bus system)
[06:51] <stefg> javiolo: it's OSX's job to connect to the ubuntu-server and drop it
[06:51] <stefg> 's backup
[06:51] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: and they are all down it seems
[06:51] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: or?
[06:51] <navyn> bobovski, i would like to just be able to double click the song, and xmms automatically open.  Right now, the default is movie player
[06:51] <jrib> bobovski: yes, but beware these new versions are basically security fixes so you will be running an exploitable firefox
[06:51] <lamego> Timmy|GDS, that would be impossible :)
[06:51] <cello_rasp> how do i change the gtk icon theme without gnome. I found gtk-theme-switch  for changing the gtk wdiget theme, but i cant find anything for icons
[06:51] <lamego> Timmy|GDS, the pt ones are not, for sure :)
[06:51] <jrib> bobovski: also I don't know how well a downgrade of firefox will work
[06:51] <Warbo> navyn: right click song>properties>open with. Make sure XMMS has the radio button on it
[06:52] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: well i cant do a thing with my dapper reps
[06:52] <lamego> Timmy|GDS, what error do you get when you do apt-get update ?
[06:52] <navyn> bobovski, sorry, i misread your message.  Thanks, I can't believe I missed that! :)
[06:52] <bobovski> navyn: yes, pick any media file, go to open with and choose xmms. it will set up the file preferences for all the same media files automatically
[06:52] <haasteem> Xplicit: cool, check their website, that story should be online now...
[06:52] <lamego> Timmy|GDS, have you tried to change to a country mirror ?
[06:52] <bobovski> navyn: np
[06:52] <redsoxfan90> im using the fglrx driver from ati
[06:52] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: apt-get, it wont authenticate and same with synaptoc
[06:52] <redsoxfan90> warbo
[06:52] <lamego> tim_, authenticate what ?
[06:52] <lamego> erm, Timmy|GDS
[06:52] <Warbo> redsoxfan90: I know, but that doesn't support my ATI card, so I use the DRI one
[06:53] <bobovski> jrib: well, it's worth a shot just to see if it's a version specific problem with firefox, right?
[06:53] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: I may change mirrors
[06:53] <redsoxfan90> will DRI work for me?
[06:53] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: and it wont download
[06:53] <rever> Hi, When I open Nautilus then goto Computer. I click on the HDD Icon Share (Which is my fat32 windows linux share) it will mount it but not open it. I have to traverse to where I mount it (/media/share)
[06:53] <Xplicit> while im here could some1 recomend a good irc client for ubuntu, on windows i used Mirc and now HydraIRC because im active in multiple channels at once but in ubuntu gaim and konversation and others i tried didnt let me see more than 1 chan at once
[06:53] <jrib> bobovski: you can try.  But to let you know, flash has always done that to me in firefox on linux.  I am fairly certain it's flash's fault, not firefox's
[06:53] <lamego> Timmy|GDS, could you past the exact error message ?
[06:53] <Warbo> redsoxfan90: I don't know, check if your card is listed on one of the sites (I think dri.sourceforge.net or help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver )
[06:53] <bobovski> jrib: well, I can't even get the firefox-=VERSION thing to work right, so whatever :)
[06:53] <rever> /dev/sda2       /media/share    vfat    rw,user,noauto  0       0
[06:53] <haasteem> Xplicit: xchat
[06:54] <lamego> you dont authentication to get the packages, you should, but it is not required
[06:54] <nox-Hand> Does anyone know how I can get my pen-mouse to work in Linux? You know, the ones that just look like a pen with a cord you just drag over your table.
[06:54] <bobovski> jrib: ah, that's good information to have. You don't know a workaround?
[06:54] <vedder> Hi!
[06:54] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: well, once when i got patient and ran it, it said they couldent be contacted, nothing technical, just no contact
[06:54] <dr_willis> nox-Hand,  a wacom?
[06:54] <Xplicit> thx
[06:54] <nox-Hand> dr_willis, it's not with the whole tablet. Just a pen on a usb cable. Z-pen
[06:54] <haasteem> Xplicit: that is what i am using right now
[06:54] <lamego> Timmy|GDS, edit your /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:54] <vedder> I just mount a ext3 partitoin but i can't write
[06:54] <lamego> and change your repositorios locations
[06:55] <bobovski> jrib: I thought at first it was a sound issue, but that doesn't seem to be the case
[06:55] <lamego> my example: http://pt.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[06:55] <stefg> nox-Hand: goggle for the exact make and model of your pen-mouse and 'ubuntu' as a serach term
[06:55] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: what should I change? should i just completely rewrite it?
[06:55] <nox-Hand> stefg, right.
[06:55] <Warbo> vedder: Your user needs permissions for that folder
[06:55] <lamego> Timmy|GDS, rewrite the server names, to some country
[06:55] <lamego> pt, uk, us, etc
[06:55] <vedder> how can i do that?
[06:55] <Timmy|GDS> lamego: aight man, you kick ass
[06:55] <conlan> Hi, i have a quick question.
[06:55] <Timmy|GDS> peace
[06:56] <TheEric> exit
[06:56] <bobovski> jrib: thanks for the help!
[06:56] <Warbo> vedder: "sudo chown your-username foldername -R" (although this will destroy the permission system already used on the drive!)
[06:56] <vedder> Thanks Marbo :D
[06:56] <conlan> I want to know how to use a samba share thats on another computer, like its on my ubuntu one
[06:56] <Warbo> vedder: If you want to access it without changing it's permissions then use sudo
[06:56] <vedder> i just want to setip up like the home partition
[06:57] <vedder> auto mount and the start
[06:57] <stefg> !samba
[06:57] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[06:57] <shawnr_> I'm looking for a Java IDE / or simple Java editor, that has auto complete. eclipse/netbeans are to heavy. I loved JCreator when i was a windows user but it hasn't been ported to linux yet. Anyone have any suggestions?
[06:57] <conlan> thanks
[06:57] <Warbo> vedder: OK, just that if it is another whole Linux system then changing it's permissions like that would ruin it
[06:58] <vedder> ok is a new partition to store my files..wich is the best way to do it?
[06:58] <Dreamglider> when i watch video files windowed the picture is good, but when i og fullscreen, i see alot of lines as if the picture was split up every other line, anyone know what i can do about this ?
[06:58] <Warbo> No Wifi help then? This seems pretty serious...
[06:58] <vedder> defaults        0       0  this is what i have but don't work
[06:58] <Warbo> vedder: A new partition would be fine to use that chown command on
[06:59] <lamego> vedder, it did work, the problem of the permissiones can be fixed as suggested by Warbo
[06:59] <vedder> ok i will do it that way, thanks again :D
[06:59] <lamego> vedder, you should understand how linux permissions work
[06:59] <Kennyout> whoah this channel is huge, anyway hello, I have a question about the difference between the CD and DVD isos
[06:59] <stefg> Dreamglider: deinterlace the file... mplayer, xine or vlc can do this during playback, although it eats CPU-time
[06:59] <dr_willis> vedder,  i make a directory on the new parittions and change The permssions on That - so the user can have it. like a 2nd home directory. :P
[06:59] <Dreamglider> stefg, how
[07:00] <Scorpmoon> how do I change the port openssh uses?
[07:00] <stefg> Dreamglider: check the preferences of your prefereed videoplayer
[07:00] <vedder> this is what i want willis
[07:00] <lamego> Scorpmoon, sshd_config ?
[07:00] <dr_willis> Scorpmoon,  edit the opensshd config files would be the start.
[07:00] <Scorpmoon> lamego, where is it
[07:00] <lamego> Scorpmoon, man sshd
[07:01] <lamego> thats an unusal question, the type of question for someone who should know to read the manual :)
[07:01] <lamego> unusual
[07:01] <Symgeosis> Could somebody pastebin their /etc/dbus-1/system.d/dhcdbd.conf file please?
[07:02] <Warbo> My wifi card is RaLink, and the "rt61" module has autoloaded itself. Are there known issues with this?
[07:02] <Symgeosis> Could somebody pastebin their /etc/dbus-1/system.d/dhcdbd.conf file please?
[07:02] <Scorpmoon> isn't openssh supposed to be started from /etc/rc ? sudo nano /etc/rc gives me an empty file, why?
[07:02] <Dreamglider> i dont want deinterlace if it uses so much CPU, is there no other way around this ?
[07:02] <Symgeosis> Obvious note to self: don't mess with networking stuff when on IRC.
[07:02] <Warbo> Scorpmoon: "ls /etc/rc*"
[07:02] <Kennyout> Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the DVD iso and CD iso are?...like is "Live" only availble to the DVD by defualt? Are there more files/other things?
[07:02] <vedder> Great! :D
[07:03] <dr_willis> Scorpmoon,  because you are incorrect in your assumption.
[07:03] <Scorpmoon> tjere
[07:03] <Scorpmoon> there's like 100 files on that ls
[07:03] <keithhhh> anyone use open movie editor??
[07:03] <lamego> Symgeosis, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21223
[07:03] <Warbo> Scorpmoon: Basically /etc/rcX.d (where X is the runlevel) store links to startup scripts, which are in /etc/init.d
[07:04] <Symgeosis> lamego, thanks.
[07:04] <lamego> Scorpmoon, thats because you have like 100 services that you can run
[07:04] <vedder> the last question this defaults  0   0 or this defaults  0   2 is better for a 2 home partition?
[07:04] <Scorpmoon> hmm the runlevel
[07:04] <vedder> i think is the second one right?
[07:04] <vedder> 0 2
[07:04] <Warbo> Ubuntu runs in runlevel 2 (runlevel 1 is single user)
[07:04] <stefg> Dreamglider: make sure you use xv as the output device... it might be your system is too slow, when you don't have a + 600 Mhz CPU and a reasonable graphics card (no 'shared mem' video)
[07:04] <lamego> vedder, keep the same defaults you use now
[07:05] <Warbo> update-rc.d is used to change the links, don't do it manually (or your changes might get overwritten later)
[07:05] <Scorpmoon> .. /etc/init.d/rc doesn't contain ss
[07:05] <Scorpmoon> damn this is complex
[07:05] <vedder> i don't have defailts there i add that line
[07:05] <lamego> Scorpmoon, do you have sshd installed at all ?
[07:05] <Scorpmoon> yes i apt-get openssh-server and it starts at boot
[07:05] <Warbo> WHat is /etc/init.d/rc?
[07:05] <shawnr_> I'm looking for a Java IDE / or simple Java editor, that has auto complete. eclipse/netbeans are to heavy. I loved JCreator when i was a windows user but it hasn't been ported to linux yet. Anyone have any suggestions?
[07:06] <lamego> Scorpmoon, ls -la /etc/init.d/ssh
[07:06] <Scorpmoon> i just need to change the port it uses, i guess i do that at startup parameters
[07:06] <lamego> Scorpmoon, scripts are st /etc/init.d/*

[07:06] <Scorpmoon> lamego, i do a backup copy first right? where is the normal place to store such backups
[07:07] <lamego> Scorpmoon, ssh options are stored at /etc/default/ssh
[07:07] <Dreamglider> laptop
[07:07] <lamego> Scorpmoon, you dont need to touch the script
[07:07] <Scorpmoon> lamego, then how do I change the default port
[07:07] <lamego> but this are the command line options
[07:07] <Kathari> I'm one of the many with "Mounting root filesystems" problems, the install cd hangs there, tried all the possibilities listed on the forums, no help... does anyone know if there is progress made on this?
[07:07] <lamego> Scorpmoon, have you read the sshd man ? dont think so
[07:07] <Warbo> Scorpmoon: You can keep backups in /etc/init.d if you want. Something like /etc/init.d/myscript.backup will not be run unless you tell them to with update-rc.d (which will then link it to the rcX.d directories)
[07:07] <stefg> Dreamglider: you have the nvidia-driver installed (not the open source 'nv' driver?)
[07:08] <Scorpmoon> man is just as intriguing to read as a womens novel
[07:08] <lyy> Scorpmoon: i used subversion to backup
[07:08] <Dreamglider> stefg, i dont know
[07:08] <Dreamglider> how do i see that ?
[07:08] <Kathari> I also tried the edgy 6.10 build that's available elsewhere, it got past this hanging point, but it crashed when trying to load X, either way, I've never been able to even get to the install screen
[07:08] <lyy> make sure the back up is on another system.
[07:08] <lamego> Scorpmoon, there is an sshd specific config file which is not related to the service startup script, and thats what you should look for
[07:08] <Scorpmoon> oh i'm looking alright, just no clue where to look
[07:08] <lamego> Scorpmoon, ok, why do you want to change the sshd default port ?
[07:09] <Scorpmoon> lamego, coz I can't touch my router
[07:09] <Scorpmoon> i need to switch port 22 which is standard ssh i presume? to 443
[07:09] <Scorpmoon> since I don't use https for anything
[07:09] <dr_willis> 443? Hmm..
[07:09] <s|k> you know I messed up the file permissions for xorg.conf, what are good permissions for that file?
[07:10] <lamego> Scorpmoon, read the manual, if you were used to it would know there is a "FILES" section wich just lists the file you need
[07:10] <stefg> Dreamglider: do "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` nvidia-glx && sudo nvidia-glx-config enable".. press ctrl-alt-backspace after that to restart the X-server
[07:10] <Dreamglider> its a GeForce FX Go5600
[07:10] <lamego> Scorpmoon, something that you can finding, with about 5 key presses
[07:10] <Scorpmoon> yes man ssh tells me how to define the port number.. the problem is I don't know where it's called from
[07:10] <Herbal> is it safe to take this CGWD update or is it gonna blow my gnom-term
[07:10] <lamego> Scorpmoon, read the "FILES" section !
[07:10] <dr_willis> :)
[07:11] <s|k> anyone?
[07:11] <Dreamglider> stefg, ok ill do that
[07:11] <lamego> do i need to read it for you ?
[07:11] <Scorpmoon> now if reading a man was like using notepad, maybe I could find that section
[07:11] <Scorpmoon> oh I found it :)
[07:11] <Clinton__> I'm looking for a gnome applet similar to the System Monitor applet, but it has cpu speed, memory, and bandwidth all within on "box" represented as graph lines.  I'm having a hell of a time remembering what it is called and can't seem to search for it properly.  Does anyone know the name of this applet so I can install it?
[07:11] <Symgeosis> Anybody have any more ideas on how to fix this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21218 ? The dhcdbd conf file is fine. I'm out of ideas.
[07:11] <Scorpmoon> thats a sh*tload of files
[07:12] <Scorpmoon> first of all I don't know what ~/.ssh/ is
[07:12] <lamego> Scorpmoon, it is, if you know to use it, like typing: /FILES
[07:12] <Symgeosis> I can connect to wireless as long as I don't use Network Manager.
[07:12] <lamego> Scorpmoon, ok, i give up, you dont know how to read:
[07:12] <lamego> FILES
[07:12] <lamego>      /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[07:12] <Scorpmoon> don't give up on me, and leave me in the claws of M$ :/
[07:13] <Scorpmoon> woo that's the one
[07:13] <Kennyout> Okay so what is the difference between the CD iso and the DVD iso?
[07:13] <Scorpmoon> would #ListenAddress <IP_ADDRESS> be the bind address?
[07:13] <christoo> Anyone know how to set up a wireless card in ubuntu?

[07:13] <Symgeosis> christoo, It depends on what kind.
[07:13] <christoo> yep
[07:14] <christoo> i'm looking it up now
[07:14] <christoo> its an r something
[07:14] <christoo> but let me look it up
[07:14] <lamego> Scorpmoon, yes it is
[07:14] <christoo> the chipset on the card is something like r****
[07:14] <Scorpmoon> In /etc/network/interfaces I have: iface eth0 inet static ... address <IP_ADDRESS> ... netmask <IP_ADDRESS> ... .. how do I add 2 IP's for the same NIC? do I just type another address line?
[07:15] <stefg> !enter
[07:15] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[07:15] <kaot> window 2
[07:15] <kaot> ....doh.
[07:16] <Symgeosis> christoo, you may be able to find out your chipset by doing a "lspci | grep Wireless" or something similar.
[07:16] <lamego> Scorpmoon, you ad an eth0:1
[07:16] <lamego> add
[07:16] <Scorpmoon> lamego, a complete clone of those 4 lines, just with eth0:1 differs?
[07:17] <Scorpmoon> and does the first one need to be eth0:0 or something
[07:17] <lamego> Scorpmoon, and the differente ip...
[07:17] <lamego> no, you just need to make a :1
[07:17] <Scorpmoon> clone of 4 lines, right?
[07:17] <lamego> yes
[07:17] <Scorpmoon> thx alot!
[07:18] <christoo> Hawking HWC54D (Ralink RT2500)
[07:18] <christoo> that would be the card Hawking HWC54D (Ralink RT2500)

[07:21] <redsoxfan90> my friend is telling me that this is bad.
[07:21] <redsoxfan90> :(
[07:21] <redsoxfan90> sry
[07:21] <redsoxfan90> right
[07:21] <richiefrich> why not use a pastebin
[07:21] <sethk> redsoxfan90, put in on a pastebin
[07:21] <richiefrich> !pastebin > redsoxfan90
[07:21] <sethk> redsoxfan90, by the way, it looks perfectly normal to me
[07:21] <stefg> Dreamglider: what player are you using?
[07:21] <redsoxfan90> well he says it was configured craply
[07:22] <richiefrich> redsoxfan90 who
[07:22] <mnvl> does anyone recommend a good utility for creating data cd? the built-in file browser one is playing up
[07:22] <Scorpmoon> lamego, for some reason I can't connect to my ssh now, using the new port 443
[07:22] <sethk> Dreamglider, if you are using a frame buffer, turn it off.  I've seen that cause this problem
[07:22] <Warbo> Ubuntu just died again
[07:22] <Scorpmoon> lamego, i could before, when it was 22, and before messing with network/interfaces
[07:22] <bruenig> mnvl, gnomebaker
[07:22] <redsoxfan90> rich my friend
[07:22] <bruenig> !info gnomebaker
[07:22] <ubotu> gnomebaker: application for CD/DVD creation in the GNOME desktop. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.1-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 862 kB, installed size 2640 kB
[07:22] <sethk> redsoxfan90, looks perfectly normal to me.  however, that's irrelevant.  what problem are you having.
[07:22] <lamego> Scorpmoon, first you should have done only one change and test it...
[07:23] <richiefrich> redsoxfan90 tell your he needs help
[07:23] <redsoxfan90> sethk i play a game and my graphic card is lagging up
[07:23] <richiefrich> redsoxfan90 whats the issue
[07:23] <redsoxfan90> its delayed
[07:23] <blocky> personally i prefer k3b to gnomebaker
[07:23] <sethk> redsoxfan90, that certainly has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with the tty configuration
[07:23] <blocky> but it requires kde libraries
[07:23] <Dreamglider> stefg, VLC
[07:23] <lamego> Scorpmoon, did you look into the sshd logs before asking here :P ?
[07:23] <Scorpmoon> lamego, when i save changes to interfaces or sshd_config they take effect instantly?
[07:23] <mnvl> also, what's a front end for bittorrent?
[07:23] <mnvl> thx bruenig
[07:23] <lamego> no
[07:23] <bruenig> blocky, k3b is better and so is amarok and a bunch of kde apps but I'd rather not run non native apps if at all possible
[07:23] <richiefrich> redsoxfan90 exactly what sethk said
[07:23] <redsoxfan90> sethk: how do i get out of X?
[07:23] <Scorpmoon> lamego, dunno where those logs are :)
[07:24] <Dreamglider> stefg, in fullscreen i still see the lines move aroun even if the player is paused
[07:24] <lamego> Scorpmoon, /var/log*
[07:24] <sethk> redsoxfan90, depends what you mean by that.
[07:24] <richiefrich> redsoxfan90 exit it ..  or kill it
[07:24] <Scorpmoon> no ssh log
[07:24] <lamego> Scorpmoon, you need to learn a lot before using a server :P
[07:24] <blocky> i run gnome but use amarok and k3b
[07:24] <richiefrich> redsoxfan90  ctrl + alt + baskspace
[07:24] <nightattack> hello, my ubuntu got messed up a bit and has lots of startup errors lol, is there anyway to reinstall?
[07:24] <blocky> I see no reason not to use the best tool for the job
[07:24] <Scorpmoon> lamego, yeah.. how i just wish things were more intuitive
[07:24] <bruenig> mnvl, azureus is the most complete most feature laden but it runs on java so is resource hungry. Some people use bittornado or the default bittorrent that comes with ubuntu. Personally I use utorrent through wine but that takes a bit more setup than the others
[07:25] <richiefrich> nightattack use the cd like u did to install this one :P
[07:25] <lamego> Scorpmoon, they are pretty intuitive, if you read the manual
[07:25] <CyberMad> what's the difference between debian and ubuntu?
[07:25] <Scorpmoon> reading a manual is not intuitive.. what is the most intuitive thing in the world? sex! do you need a manual for that?
[07:25] <tarzeau> CyberMad: debian's got alot more software
[07:25] <nightattack> richiefrich , but then i need to delete everything, or will it stay there?
[07:25] <sethk> CyberMad, different distributions
[07:25] <richiefrich> nightattack no it will do it or it should
[07:25] <sethk> nightattack, you can install without deleting everything (or with deleting everything, your choice)
[07:25] <richiefrich> nightattack cfdisk fdisk
[07:26] <Zambezi> Anyone know how to enable SSL in a precompiled gftp-version with support for SSL? The connection fails all the time.
[07:26] <CyberMad> sethk about that, yes i know..
[07:26] <mnvl> well i have the package 'bittorrent' but i can't find the correct binary to open torrents with
[07:26] <sethk> CyberMad, there is nothing more to know, other than the details.
[07:26] <CyberMad> tarzeau what do you mean? both have apt-get, do you mean the ubuntu apt-get list less than debian?
[07:26] <richiefrich> mkfs.{ext3,jfs,ext2,xfs,reiserfs}
[07:26] <virogenesis> is there any fix for the synaptic breakage?
[07:26] <stefg> Dreamglider: then it might be a driver or hardware issue. Check in VLC's preferences (advanced options checked), -> output modules is set to XVideo
[07:26] <lamego> Scorpmoon, sex is human, computers are not humans
[07:26] <tarzeau> CyberMad: yes
[07:26] <sethk> CyberMad, ubuntu happens to use the same package management software as debian.  but ubuntu isn't the only distribution that does this.
[07:26] <YogSothoth> Hello!
[07:27] <Herbal> is it safe to get the compiz update? or does it have bad packages
[07:27] <Scorpmoon> they will be
[07:27] <richiefrich> CyberMad ues aptitude  :P
[07:27] <FantasticFoo> hmm... a tutorial on the internet says to use the "gnome-xgl-settings" command, but i do not have that program.. any deb package for it?
[07:27] <stefg> Dreamglider: save and restart the playback after that
[07:27] <bruenig> mnvl, you should be able to just double click the torrents but other than that I think it is actually called bittorrent. So that should be the name of the binary
[07:27] <sethk> Herbal, see the docs.  it says it is alpha software.  that means that it is alpha software.
[07:27] <lamego> Scorpmoon, and if you have played with the manual since kid as you did with your sex, it would be intuitive
[07:27] <YogSothoth> I just connected a second monitor (Dell 2007FPW) to my Ubuntu box. But it stays black, nothing happens. What should I do?
[07:27] <Scorpmoon> that made sense
[07:27] <sethk> YogSothoth, configure your system to use two monitors
[07:27] <blocky> does anyone know if I will encounter issues using a PIXMA iP2200 printer with linux?
[07:28] <stefg> !printer
[07:28] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[07:28] <YogSothoth> sethk, where's that?
[07:28] <lamego> Scorpmoon, have you restarted sshd ?
[07:28] <Scorpmoon> ok, the only change i did now, was change port from 22 to 443
[07:28] <Herbal> sethk: one repo had packages that are from edgy and BROKE gnome-term
[07:28] <lamego> after the changes ?
[07:28] <Warbo> Would "sudo dhclient ra0" get an IP from my wifi router?
[07:28] <Scorpmoon> lamego, no i reboot everytime :)
[07:28] <sethk> Herbal, that's what you should expect with alpha software
[07:28] <lamego> SonicvanaJr, uff !
[07:28] <lamego> erm, Scorpmoon
[07:28] <Herbal> sethk: not really
[07:28] <sethk> YogSothoth, part of the X configuration
[07:28] <shawnr_> I'm looking for a Java IDE / or simple Java editor, that has auto complete. eclipse/netbeans are to heavy. I loved JCreator when i was a windows user but it hasn't been ported to linux yet. Anyone have any suggestions?
[07:28] <sethk> Herbal, yes, really.
[07:28] <sethk> Herbal, what else could alpha software possibly mean?
[07:28] <Symgeosis> Warbo, that's what I do. Only my interface is wlan0.
[07:28] <Scorpmoon> damn, port 443 doesn't work
[07:29] <Warbo> OK, well it locks up my box :(
[07:29] <kikica> Hi, i've formatted disk and reinstalled ubuntu 6.06 about 10 times already and always failed to setup ATI drivers correctly - if anyone has a link to a tutorial that works, I'd be very greatful. (yeah i've been googling alot already :/)
[07:29] <Scorpmoon> could that port be closed by default in ubuntu?
[07:29] <YogSothoth> sethk, should I redo x configuration or can I edit X11org.conf? If so, where can I find an example?
[07:29] <Scorpmoon> or does apache occupy it?
[07:29] <stefg> !ATI
[07:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ATI - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:29] <Scorpmoon> it's a LAMP server
[07:29] <Herbal> sethk: well i think that package was a mistake anyway and it was pulled
[07:29] <sethk> Herbal, although I will admit that using alpha software on an unreleased o/s version is worse.
[07:29] <lamego> Scorpmoon, type: netstat -lp
[07:29] <stefg> !ati
[07:29] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:29] <lamego> to list listening ports
[07:29] <kikica> thx stefg
[07:29] <sethk> Herbal, indeed.  it's alpha software, don't expect it to work.  The docs say that quite explicitly
[07:29] <Scorpmoon> lamego, https is listening
[07:30] <lamego> Scorpmoon, ok, that explains :)
[07:30] <Scorpmoon> duh
[07:30] <Scorpmoon> apache right?
[07:30] <Herbal> lol it works fine, its just they slipped a version of gnome terminal for the wrong os into the repo lol
[07:30] <sethk> YogSothoth, do a search for xinerama, you'll find some examples of how to configure it.  which video card are you using?
[07:30] <Herbal> had to reoll gnome term back
[07:30] <Cirvin_Fox> When i try to print or edit printing settings, the software tells me the CUPS server cannot be reached, how may i fix this?
[07:30] <philly> can anyone help me with networking drivers
[07:30] <bruenig> !anyone
[07:30] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:30] <YogSothoth> sethk, Intel GMA915 I think. I'm on a laptop
[07:30] <sethk> Herbal, it is possible that you might get lucky and make it work.  but it is alpha software.  don't expect it to work, and don't complain when it doesn't
[07:31] <Herbal> im not complaining, just wondering if it has that package or not lol
[07:31] <sethk> YogSothoth, the laptop has a connection for an external monitor?
[07:31] <YogSothoth> sethk, I meant GMA950
[07:31] <CyberMad> sethk so, from that statement.. why do you use ubuntu while debian offer you more software than ubuntu?
[07:31] <fyrestrtr> what is a good note-taking/brainstorming type app?
[07:31] <Herbal> i commented out the beerorkid repo so it should be safe
[07:31] <born> hello all
[07:31] <bruenig> fyrestrtr, what?
[07:31] <YogSothoth> sethk, yes, it is currently connected. The monitor displayed "No input" before and turned to black when I connected it
[07:31] <Scorpmoon> where is apache httpd.conf stored on a LAMP server
[07:31] <bruenig> gedit can take notes
[07:31] <Scorpmoon> btw. how do I do a full system search
[07:31] <YogSothoth> sethk, so I think the connection is good
[07:32] <sethk> CyberMad, I don't, exactly, I use both ubuntu and debian.  Ubuntu is easier to install, easier to configure, easier to maintain, and has all the software I need in most cases.
[07:32] <Warbo> How would I install newer version of a driver which is already installed? (would they conflict? How would I get rid of the old one, just move the .ko file?)
[07:32] <born> after installation i have two problems, i have to do a sudo dhclient every time manually after boot, it does not work automatically, does anybody has a solution for this weird behaviour?
[07:32] <Cirvin_Fox> I tried to use apt-get to reinstall CUPS, but it said the package was unavalible
[07:32] <sethk> YogSothoth, I'd agree the connection itself is good.
[07:32] <fyrestrtr> bruenig: no, something like ... there is an app for osx that does it perfectly, omni-something.
[07:32] <JRlinux> Running visudo to add sudo local user... HOW do you save and quit?  Sorry, all man and google help not sinking in...
[07:32] <sethk> YogSothoth, the problem will be with telling the system to use both at the same time.
[07:32] <Aar0n> can anyone recommaned a good IRC client for ubuntu
[07:32] <sethk> YogSothoth, many laptops have keys to turn on the second monitor, or both, and these keys aren't going to work in linux.
[07:33] <bruenig> Aar0n, I like gaim
[07:33] <CyberMad> sethk thanks
[07:33] <bruenig> Aar0n, xchat seems to be popular also
[07:33] <mnvl> bruenig, in /usr/bin i have only btdownloadcurses, btdownloadheadless, btdownloadcurses.bittorrent and btdownloadheadless.bittorrent
[07:33] <Warbo> Aar0n: Xchat, GAIM
[07:33] <sethk> Aar0n, most people use xchat, gaim is also used.
[07:33] <tarzeau> Aar0n: irssi-text ?
[07:33] <Herbal> i broke my xchat lmao
[07:33] <Cirvin_Fox> so how would one go about reinstalling cups?
[07:33] <sethk> Herbal, you sure you aren't complaining?  :)
[07:33] <Herbal> na lol i though it was funny...i like ksirc
[07:34] <Aar0n> thanks
[07:34] <Aar0n> can i use something like
[07:34] <Aar0n> sudo apt-get xchat?
[07:34] <bruenig> mnvl, it is in /usr/share/bittorrent
[07:34] <Warbo> sudo apt-get install xchat I think
[07:34] <sethk> Cirvin_Fox, something is likely messed up in your package databases.  try doing apt-get update
[07:34] <Cirvin_Fox> mmk
[07:34] <Cirvin_Fox> thanks:-)
[07:34] <sethk> Cirvin_Fox, with sudo, of course.
[07:34] <bruenig> sorry, i figured it would be in /usr/bin as that seems to be the most logical choice but I guess not

[07:34] <Aar0n> Ahh
[07:34] <bobovski> Hi again. Has anyone had problems with resolving dns in Ubunu?
[07:35] <exs> I want gaim to launch automatically upon boot.
[07:35] <bobovski> It seems to hang on me every once in awhile
[07:35] <sethk> bobovski, I've helped many people with that problem.  but that is too vague a question, try a more specific one
[07:35] <Warbo> exs: Add it to System>Preferences>Sessions
[07:35] <bobovski> well, pretty often actually
[07:35] <bruenig> exs, go to system>preferences>sessions and then startup programs
[07:35] <fyrestrtr> does anyone know of an app that is like 'omnioutliner' for the mac? http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnioutliner/
[07:35] <sethk> bobovski, dns problems won't cause you to hang.  they will cause things to take a long time, or to time out, but not to hang
[07:35] <Cirvin_Fox> no luck, is there some place that i can get the current version of sources.list? ive tinkered with mine a bit
[07:35] <bruenig> exs, then add an entry and give it the command gaim
[07:36] <bruenig> !easysource
[07:36] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[07:36] <exs> Thanks :)
[07:36] <mnvl> bruenig, i did 'whereis bittorrent' too but that dir is empty
[07:36] <sethk> fyrestrtr, I've not; I've considered writing something like it.
[07:36] <bobovski> sethk: hmm, ok. Let me try. Sometimes wien I'm surfing the web, I'll click on a link and the status bar for the browser sits at "looking up..." for a long time before resolving the dns
[07:36] <stefg> exs: you want it to launch after log-in... seeSystem-Settings-Session in Gnome
[07:36] <bobovski> sethk: I'
[07:36] <bobovski> er
[07:36] <bruenig> mnvl, try sudo apt-get install bittorrent
[07:36] <Warbo> Lauching GAIM after login makes the buddy list window appear, which can get annoying
[07:36] <bobovski> sethk: I'm using a netgear router with the latest firmware
[07:36] <sethk> bobovski, that does sound like a dns config issue.  If you have more than one dns server configured, I would try exchanging the first and second in your /etc/resolv.conf
[07:36] <exs> stefg:  I don't see "settings" in the "system" menu
[07:36] <sethk> bobovski, it's not a router issue.
[07:36] <Warbo> exs: System>Preferences
[07:36] <fangorious> anyone know how to change the network name that gnome-user-share advertises, seems to be hard coded to "My Network"
[07:37] <bruenig> exs, system>preferences>sessions
[07:37] <exs> yeah, cheers.
[07:37] <bobovski> sthk: ok, I'm looking at resolv.conf, and I've got nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:37] <sethk> bobovski, it may be waiting for a timeout on the first listed dns server before trying the second
[07:37] <it1957> hello
[07:37] <sethk> bobovski, only one?
[07:37] <stefg> exs... first entry in the system menu... got no friggin english gnome here :-)
[07:37] <bobovski> indeed
[07:37] <sethk> bobovski, then I take it back, it is the router configuration, because you are using your router as your dns source
[07:37] <sethk> bobovski, assuming your router is <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:37] <bobovski> sethk: it is
[07:38] <bobovski> sethk: do I turn off dhcp on the router?
[07:38] <sethk> bobovski, no, not entirely
[07:38] <sethk> bobovski, you can override the dns settings without doing that
[07:38] <sethk> bobovski, if you know what dns servers to use, it's easy.
[07:38] <sethk> bobovski, if you don't, you may have to get the info from your isp.
[07:39] <sethk> bobovski, I'm assuming your router get's dns configuration using dhcp from your isp
[07:39] <bobovski> sethk: yes
[07:39] <shawnr_> Can anyone help me with getting Geany to compile and run my java files ?
[07:39] <sethk> bobovski, You can replace, in /etc/resolv.conf, the router with one or more dns server IPs
[07:39] <bobovski> sethk: which are directly from the ISP, correct?
[07:39] <sethk> bobovski, of course that assumes you know what the servers are.  Can you dump the router config and find out what dns servers it is using?
[07:40] <Sumedh> req support for sify broadband india
[07:40] <sethk> bobovski, usually, yes, that's from the ISP for both IP and DNS addresses.
[07:40] <exs> stefg:  If I want kopete to startup (I checked the shortcut I con it made and checked it, it said "Instant Messenger"..) so, I clicked 'startup programs' tab and clicked the 'add' button, I then pasted in "Instant Messenger" and clicked ok. Will this work?
[07:40] <bobovski> sethk: let me see if I get what you are asking
[07:40] <stefg> exs: you'll find that out :-)
[07:40] <bobovski> sethk: ok, I have two dns servers listed
[07:40] <bruenig> exs, i doubt the command for kopete is Instant Messenger
[07:40] <bruenig> exs, it is likely kopete
[07:40] <Warbo> How can I change a driver module? I want to replace /lib/modules/2.6.15-23-k7/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2600/rt61.ko
[07:40] <bobovski> sethk: and one dhcp server listed, in the "connection status" poart for the router
[07:41] <exs> bruenig:  ok, well I'll change it to kopete then
[07:41] <sethk> bobovski, ok.  what I would do is to test the servers, using either the "host" command or the "dig" command.  Both are command line utilities that make dns queries
[07:41] <DJAdmiral> if i just want to run windoze me on ubuntu which has my entire 40gb hard disk with it's ext2 partition and swap partition, what VMWare programs will i need and will it cost me anything?
[07:41] <bruenig> exs, open up a terminal and type kopete and see if it launches, if it does then that is the command
[07:41] <sethk> bobovski, now I'm confused.  where did you have two listed?
[07:41] <revlo> hi can you roughly tell me how much space a ubuntu-server with apache and perl, bitlbee and courier-imap will take? and can I user the "normal" ubuntu repo for irssi and stuff?
[07:41] <Warbo> DJAdmiral: You will need a license to run Windows ME
[07:41] <sethk> bobovski, most likely only the one listed in connection status is actually being used.
[07:41] <exs> bruenig:  yes, it worked :)
[07:41] <DJAdmiral> Warbo: I have one.
[07:41] <sethk> bobovski, where did the other DNS addresses come from?
[07:42] <bobovski> sethk: sethk: I'm accessing the router's config and checking the status of the connection through the router. I'ts listing one dhcp server and two dns servers from my ISP
[07:42] <sethk> bobovski, ok, try this.
[07:42] <sethk> bobovski, host www.yahoo.com DNS-IP     replace DNS-IP with one of the DNS IPs
[07:42] <Warbo> DJAdmiral: vmware-player cannot create new systems, so you may need the server one (whichever one is also free, but not in Ubuntu)
[07:42] <shawnr_> Can anyone help me with getting Geany to compile and run my java files ? Anyone?
[07:42] <Sumedh> when is ubuntu-6.06.1 dvd gona be realeased 386 one
[07:42] <Cirvin_Fox> i restored sources.list yet when i try and use apt to install cups, it tells me there is no installation cantitdate
[07:43] <sethk> bobovski, that makes a dns request explicitly to that dns server, and www.yahoo.com is just a name that should be resolvable everywhere
[07:43] <bruenig> Sumedh, is there some reason you need the dvd?
[07:43] <Warbo> Cirvin_Fox: Did you run "sudo apt-get update"?
[07:43] <Cirvin_Fox> yes
[07:43] <fyrestrtr> Cirvin_Fox: sudo apt-get update
[07:43] <DJAdmiral> Warbo: so I need VMWare Player and VMWare server?
[07:43] <Warbo> k, just checking
[07:43] <sethk> bobovski, try it also with the second DNS and with the DNS from your active configuration output
[07:43] <bobovski> sethk: ok, done. what should I be looking for?
[07:43] <sethk> bobovski, it will either come back immediately, or wait a while and time out
[07:43] <YogSothoth> sethk, yes I have a key to activate the second monitor (Fn+F7). Didn't think of that!
[07:43] <bobovski> sethk: what's the active configuration output?
[07:43] <Warbo> DJAdmiral: I don't know if you need the player if you have the server, just that the player alone can't do it (without some messing around)
[07:44] <sethk> YogSothoth, try it, although it may not work for linux
[07:44] <bobovski> sethk: the nameserver from resolv.conf?
[07:44] <sethk> bobovski, no,
[07:44] <Aar0n> ubuntu says there is 194mb of updates for me. do i need them all?
[07:44] <Herbal> anyone know a live distro for like data recovery or hardware diagnostic?
[07:44] <bruenig> Aar0n, sure
[07:44] <sethk> bobovski, you said you had two in the router config and then one from the router's active connection, or configuration, or something like that.
[07:44] <bbrazil> Herbal: RIPlinux possibly
[07:44] <Aar0n> herbal: F.O.R.K or Helix
[07:44] <Warbo> Aar0n: Do you need any? It is up to you really
[07:44] <bobovski> ah, wait
[07:44] <DJAdmiral> Warbo: on vmware.com it says that the vmware player can run systems created by vmware workstation, symantec disk thingy or something and microsoft virtual machines
[07:45] <Aar0n> Ah okay Warbo thanks
[07:45] <Herbal> kk, my aunt just prolly blew her HD im gonna go see if i can help her
[07:45] <bobovski> sethk: the first dns does stall
[07:45] <Cirvin_Fox> i'm going to try and use breezy repositories
[07:45] <bobovski> er, at least it did once
[07:45] <YogSothoth> sethk, anyway I have a friend next to me that run exactly the same hardware configuration but with WinXP, and he didn't had to press this key. It activated automaticaly. So I think the output is activated by default.
[07:45] <sethk> bobovski, what about the second
[07:45] <Warbo> DJAdmiral: I know that a new image cannot be made with VMWare player, but that is about it
[07:45] <bobovski> sethk: ran fine. But now the first one runs fine as well
[07:46] <sethk> YogSothoth, possibly, but check in the bios setting, the default may be configurable
[07:46] <sethk> bobovski, that may be fine, because the delay may have been because it wasn't in the DNS servers's cache
[07:46] <bobovski> sethk: there's no chance it could be the ISP is there?
[07:46] <YogSothoth> sethk, thanx
[07:46] <DJAdmiral> DJAdmiral: I might as well just have a dualboot with winme the next time i decide to reinstall ubuntu lol, thanks anyway
[07:46] <sethk> bobovski, sure, it definitely could be
[07:46] <sethk> bobovski, probably the DNS servers are in your ISP, that's usually what happens.
[07:47] <bobovski> sethk: they have recently "upgraded", and have had some dns resolving issues with other servers I think
[07:47] <Scorpmoon> how do I disable https with apache?
[07:47] <sethk> bobovski, it's probably their fault, but you, also, can probably work around it in your machine by using another publicly available dns server
[07:47] <sethk> bobovski, I guess the first thing to do is ask them to fix it.
[07:48] <bobovski> sethk: hm, I can test it using another dns server?
[07:48] <Cirvin_Fox> failed. its as if they removed CUPS from the repositories!
[07:48] <pluma> How come there's so many Germans around?
[07:48] <bluesign> i have installed smokeping, when i debug i can see values written to db but cannot see them in graph? any idea?
[07:48] <Gibbster> Hello. I just installed ubuntu on a new system, and sound works great. mpg123 compains that it 'can't find default sound device' though. Does anyone know what that's about? thanks
[07:48] <sethk> bobovski, sure.  use the host command, it lets you talk to any DNS server if you know the IP

[07:49] <ailean> guys, I'm going to install dapper on a few of the boxes at my local youth club. they have windows machines and apples and I want to open their minds to the third option.  i wondered if it was possible to buy metallic stickers that say "powered by Ubuntu, or Linux" or something.  I saw the digg story about that computer company that's giving them away for free, but i'm in europe.
[07:49] <pluma> DJAdmiral: I'm German. Of course there is.
[07:49] <sethk> bobovski, if one of the available ones doesn't have the delay problem, put it into /etc/resolv.conf before the <IP_ADDRESS> namserver

[07:56] <deltab> ailean: there are others; search the web for case sticker or case badge
[07:57] <dr_willis> and 'wont open' is also vague.  run it from a terminal? get an error message?
