[04:07] <linux_galore> byteshack: if your going to build packages then you have to download and compile the source anyway so why bother unless your redistributing the package
[04:07] <byteshack> or, do package maintainers do that by hand?
[04:08] <linux_galore> byteshack: just build from source, its what i do
[04:08] <byteshack> linux_galore: build from the src packages, or just from plain upstream source?
[04:09] <babo> dmizer: hmmm ... but their slogan is 'just download and use ...' or something like that ... it should be 'just download and use ... unless you're running a 64 bit OS'
[04:09] <linux_galore> byteshack: I build from the tarballs on the projects home page
[04:09] <babo> dmizer: don't you feel that you are missin out on something ... running 32 bit OS on a 64 bit chip ?
[04:09] <dmizer> babo: welcome to corporate skype.
[04:09] <max> can someone help me with my ubuntu
[04:09] <dmizer> babo: i don't have a 64 bit chip so ...
[04:10] <byteshack> !ask
[04:10] <ubotu> Just ask. Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise and on-topic. Information like hardware make, model and output of commands that you used pasted onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org is important.
[04:10] <dmizer> otherwise, my answer would be an enphatic yes.
[04:10] <babo> dmizer: oh, ok then ... the difference in speed is negilible anyway if you ask me ...
[04:10] <eyedol> i read some where on ubuntuforum that  sun java is in multiverse has any one tried grabbing it
[04:10] <linux_galore> Ive got skype as clear as a whistle under Linux but windows<->Linux has a nasty lag, to be honest windows<->windows is worse
[04:10] <babo> dmizer: maybe if you are rendering graphics or running control systems or something ...
[04:11] <dmizer> babo: but you got the cool thing goin'.
[04:11] <Healot> eyedol: that's sun java package is from seveas repos it think
[04:11] <dmizer> babo: honestly, i wouldn't have any idea what the advantage would be.
[04:11] <linux_galore> windows machines seem to be crap at real time audio over the net
[04:11] <babo> dmizer: yes, but I need skype ... :-(
[04:11] <Healot> linux_galore: nay
[04:11] <dmizer> you could install qemu
[04:11] <dmizer> and run it in a vm
[04:11] <gnomefreak> byteshack: try this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources
[04:11] <babo> I've tried wengo, it has 'issues' as well ...
[04:11] <max> ok why when i downloads the speed go to 10.0
[04:12] <gnomefreak> Healot: on dapper its in multiverse
[04:12] <gnomefreak> java changed their licence
[04:12] <dmizer> babo: with a 64 bit processor, you should have no problem running a virtual machine windows.
[04:12] <eyedol> Healot: so sudo apt-get install <what to grab it>
[04:12] <Seantater> what's the absolute floor for specs an average linux computer can run on?
[04:12] <dmizer> babo:or ... a vm 32 bit ubuntu for that matter.
[04:12] <Healot> java still uses Sun Binary License
[04:12] <max> ok and why with Ubuntu i can not load Java
[04:13] <linux_galore> Seantater: they have Linux running on my router and it has 16mb of ram
[04:13] <dmizer> babo: and qemu works in amd64
[04:13] <linux_galore> Seantater: Linux can be scaled, its not so much what you can run Linux on but what "you" want to run
[04:13] <Healot> eyedol: duh, i know that...
[04:13] <babo> the one thing that drives me nuts about ubuntu/debian, is the way it installs apache ... something like 5 config files, various overlapping hosts_allowed files, hosts_restricted (or whatever) and other crap which serves to make apache that much more complicated than it needs to be ...
[04:14] <Healot> but putting Sun's stuff under any GNU/Linux repos, that is sick "-"
[04:14] <babo> dmizer: yes, but skype have free callout ... or at least according to slashdot they do anyway ...
[04:14] <jhv> how do i connect to wireless networks? my card cant find any networks all of the sudden, i think i did something wrong
[04:14] <eyedol> Healot: what is the package name that is what i want to know
[04:14] <Healot> eyedol: apt-cache search java
[04:14] <dmizer> babo:us to us or canada to canada.
[04:14] <jhv> when im typing iwlist scanning i cant find any networks
[04:14] <babo> dmizer: really ?
[04:14] <dmizer> babo: really.
[04:15] <dmizer> i'm in japan and i get charged.
[04:15] <linux_galore> Seantater: for a normal desktop you need at least a P3 450 with 128mb of ram
[04:15] <babo> goddam fascists ...
[04:15] <gnomefreak> babo: language
[04:15] <dmizer> babo: it actually says it in the announcement ... but you have to read close.
[04:15] <dmizer> lol
[04:15] <babo> maybe I could proxy in and ring people in the us for free ...
[04:15] <babo> ?
[04:15] <max> did someone talk french
[04:16] <linux_galore> Seantater: if you use xubuntu instead of Ubuntu you can happily use a P1 133 with 32mb of ram
[04:16] <gnomefreak> no max french is at #ubuntu-fr
[04:16] <dmizer> lol
[04:16] <Healot> c'est moi? max
[04:16] <max> ok thanks
[04:16] <max> healot: quoi
[04:16] <babo> dmizer: also, my dad is on skype, so I guess that kinda closes the loop ...
[04:16] <nm_> hola

[04:17] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.

[04:17] <nm_> eres espaol porque yo si
[04:17] <dmizer> babo: yes ... skype is cool most of the time.
[04:17] <jhv> i cant find any ap's anymore, thoug i did 15 mins ago
[04:17] <babo> dmizer:it has video now ... so that they can spy on you probably ...

[04:19] <ompaul> nm_, ^^^
[04:19] <eyedol> got to thanks for all the help
[04:19] <babo> dmizer: honestly, I just walked over to my girlfriends windoze computer an hour ago ... pressed 'install skype' and it just worked ... I wonder sometimes ...
[04:19] <jhv> when im typing iwlist scanning i cant find any networks
[04:19] <jhv> i cant find any ap's anymore, thoug i did 15 mins ago
[04:19] <ompaul> babo, skype is badly build for linux
[04:19] <kcbanner> i just compiled the latest vanilla kernel...everything works fine but I noticed some slight mouse lag when opening windows that I did not have with the 2.2.15 kernel
[04:19] <jhv> and i know the ap's is working
[04:19] <dmizer> babo: i'm telling you ... qemu with a windows virtual machine.
[04:19] <gnomefreak> jhv: what are you looking for?
[04:20] <ompaul> babo, go to #easyubuntu and get their software it will install, after that all you have to do is configure sound
[04:20] <jhv> im looking for a wireless network
[04:20] <babo> dmizer: hmm ... something by vmware ?
[04:20] <mwe> kcbanner: have you compiled the kernel with preemption?
[04:20] <dmizer> babo: no.
[04:20] <babo> ompaul: I'm on 64bit
[04:20] <dmizer> no charge.
[04:20] <kcbanner> mwe, I believe I have..I used my old config
[04:20] <babo> dmizer: ?
[04:20] <dmizer> babo: want a link?
[04:20] <ompaul> babo, try setting up a chroot location for it
[04:20] <mwe> kcbanner: I would double check
[04:20] <ompaul> !chroot

[04:21] <babo> dmizer: yes :-)
[04:21] <MetaMorfoziS> anybody know a good commandline mp3 player?
[04:21] <dmizer>  babo: brb
[04:21] <MetaMorfoziS> audio player...
[04:21] <ompaul> MetaMorfoziS, mpg123
[04:21] <jhv> gnomefreak, im looking for a wireless network. it worked some minutes ago, but then i tried connecting to another network, that did not work, so when i the scanned for nets again, i did not find any
[04:21] <babo> ompaul: done that ... still has issues ... too numerous to mention ...
[04:21] <cil3urn> I have a question similar, what is a good wmv plugin for firefox
[04:21] <babo> dmizer: who is the virtual machine made by ?
[04:21] <bartmaniac> what does the following mean : ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
[04:21] <bartmaniac> Creating link /root/.kde/socket-localhost.
[04:21] <bartmaniac> can't create mcop directory
[04:22] <gnomefreak> jhv: sorry i dont do wireless
[04:22] <dmizer> babo: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=154265
[04:22] <ompaul> bartmaniac, ask in #kubuntu
[04:22] <dmizer> second script is for amd64
[04:22] <jhv> gnomefreak, kk
[04:22] <cil3urn> I installed gxine and it no longer gives me an error it just doesnt load anything at all
[04:22] <mwe> bartmaniac: what are you trying to do?
[04:22] <babo> dmizer: damn, I forgot that I'm on the terminal ...
[04:22] <babo> dmizer: ok thanks anyway ... :-)
[04:22] <dmizer>  babo: now it's not so cool huh?
[04:23] <cil3urn> view wmv's
[04:23] <dmizer> lol
[04:23] <cil3urn> or any internet video really
[04:23] <Healot> cil3urn: a good reset will be "rm -rc ~/.gxine"
[04:23] <dmizer> babo ... search the forms for install qemu 0.8.0
[04:23] <Healot> cil3urn: sorry "rm -rf ~/.gxine"
[04:24] <cil3urn> yeah i figured, and then what I just should try reinstalling it?
[04:24] <Healot> cil3urn: you still have the configs...
[04:24] <nm_> hola que haces
[04:24] <dmizer> babo: qemu is made by some free source group in france.
[04:24] <MartinMagnusson> Hi, I would like to start xpenguins remotely (via SSH) so that it runs on my display at home. How is this done?
[04:24] <dmizer> babo: it can run just about any os.
[04:24] <gnomefreak> nm_: for spanish join #ubuntu-es
[04:24] <cil3urn> well i did an apt-get on it and that was like a week ago
[04:24] <bartmaniac> mwe: i 'm trying to get winecfg running. first it seems dat nothing is going to happen, but then suddenly Wine confuguration appears. I got this messages the moment I clicked on the tab 'Audio'
[04:24] <jhv> how can i change the port the wlan card is scanning on
[04:25] <babo> dmizer: quem is a virtual machine ?
[04:25] <dmizer> yes.
[04:25] <dmizer> qemu
[04:25] <mwe> bartmaniac: you shouldn't run it with sudo
[04:25] <babo> s/qemu/qmeu/
[04:25] <babo> dmizer: ok cool ...
[04:25] <mwe> bartmaniac: I suppose you are since it complains about /root stuff
[04:25] <dmizer> babo: you'll want to use the script for that link ...
[04:25] <babo> dmizer: I thought it was a voip app ...
[04:25] <cil3urn> should I try manually downloading and compiling the source myself?
[04:25] <MartinMagnusson> Specifically, how can I see which display a certain user is using?
[04:25] <Healot> MartinMagnusson: what run remotely, runs on the remote computer
[04:26] <dmizer> babo: now i wouldn't send you that stuff would i?
[04:26] <nm_> hola como te llamas
[04:26] <babo> dmizer: I followed the link and it just gave me an index page ... ?
[04:26] <dmizer> babo: but in the vm, you can run an os where skype will work.
[04:26] <bartmaniac> mwe: I 'm running wine 0.9.13 (the ubuntu dapper binary version
[04:26] <dmizer> shoot.
[04:26] <mwe> !tell nm_ about es
[04:27] <nm_> mi name is dis noelia wat to na me
[04:27] <babo> dmizer: it's ok, I'll figure it out for myself ...
[04:27] <dmizer> babo: do you have an account at ubuntu forms?
[04:27] <MartinMagnusson> Running xpenguins in my SSH terminal gives me "X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown)." So I suppose I need to specify which display it should use.
[04:27] <babo> dmizer: oh yes, I forgot, my cookies got wiped out when I dev/null'd my /home folder ... :-(
[04:27] <mwe> bartmaniac: so? you should still run it as user, not with sudo
[04:27] <max> healot: yo ca va
[04:28] <pulver> hey! anyone have a working link to the gnomish svg icon theme package?
[04:28] <dmizer> babo: doh!
[04:28] <Healot> ssh, MartinMagnusson? to remote to a X server, you need some X client, like vnc
[04:28] <dmizer> well, i'm out.  later.
[04:29] <mwe> Healot: what about ssh -X?
[04:29] <kcbanner> mwe, my kernel is preemtable
[04:29] <blaze_> anyone familliar with anjuta and c++ ?
[04:29] <kcbanner> mwe, the lag has gone, maybe it was just near boot or something
[04:29] <Healot> mwe: i guess he just used
[04:29] <blaze_> familiar *
[04:29] <Healot> "ssh" but not ssh -X
[04:29] <babo> ok, well thanks dmizer and all the best :-)
[04:29] <gnomefreak> blaze_: what about it
[04:29] <nm_> hola
[04:29] <mwe> kcbanner: well good then
[04:29] <MartinMagnusson> OK. So it's not possible to start an X program on a remote machine and have the graphics show up on a remote display then?
[04:30] <KeithWeisshar> i have a pentium d with em64t, should i order the 32-bit or 64-bit version of ubntu from shipit?
[04:30] <blaze_> why do i get "0" when i type  " cout << clock() << endl;"
[04:30] <blaze_> and use <ctime>
[04:30] <mwe> nm_: We told you speak english or join #ubuntu-es
[04:30] <blaze_> i can't figure it out
[04:30] <Healot> MartinMagnusson, you can do it with ssh, but you must type "ssh -X" instead of just "ssh"
[04:30] <gnomefreak> blaze_: thats a programming question please ask that in offtopic
[04:30] <kcbanner> mwe, yeah
[04:30] <nm_> hola que como estas tio yo estoy bien pero no mucho poqe esyoy mala
[04:30] <bwbettin> Are there any websites or documentation that compare Debian vs. Ubuntu?
[04:30] <Healot> KeithWeisshar, both would be better
[04:31] <blaze_> ok, sry :) gnomefreak
[04:31] <the_mug> does anyone have any idea how to change network profiles from the command line??
[04:32] <KeithWeisshar> the shipit account only gives a choice of 1 pc edition or 1 64-bit pc edition, not both
[04:33] <Healot> order more... it is free! KeithWeisshar
[04:33] <KeithWeisshar> there is a warning that it will take 6 weeks
[04:33] <mwe> KeithWeisshar: I think the 64bit version still has some quirks
[04:33] <cil3urn> I removed and reinstalled gxine and now it looks like it begins to load the video from www.break.com and then it just goes blank
[04:33] <CoffeeBuzz> hey folks. I have an AMD sempron, what advice would you give on whether to go amd64 or stick with i386?
[04:33] <Healot> KeithWeisshar, test both 32 and 64bit of ubuntu if you have a x86_64 CPU...
[04:34] <KeithWeisshar> is the 64-bit version faster
[04:34] <visik7> not so much
[04:34] <KeithWeisshar> what's the purpose of the 64-bit version
[04:34] <Healot> CoffeeBuzz: a Palermo Sempron, or the older 32bit Sempron?
[04:34] <Healot> KeithWeisshar: it can use more than 4GB of memory?
[04:34] <Healot> and lot more memory extensive purposes :-
[04:35] <CoffeeBuzz> Healot, hrm. family: 15 model 44 haha .. i'm not exactly sure. i'll check
[04:35] <Healot> CoffeeBuzz: cpuz would help you on that
[04:35] <KeithWeisshar> i have 2gb of ram
[04:35] <KeithWeisshar> the intel 945g motherboard has a 4gb limit
[04:35] <cil3urn> KeithWeisshar, your OS will run faster if you have the 64bit with that proc
[04:36] <osotogari> When i go to System >>Admin >> Shared Folders i get an error message saying that "The configuration could not be loaded, there was an error running the backend  script" Does anyone know how i can fix this?
[04:36] <mwe> KeithWeisshar: well to exploit the 64bit cpu code natively. It will be faster if the program is optimized for 64bit
[04:36] <Healot> if it says x86_64 somewhere in the cpuz windows, you can actually use both version of ubuntu, CoffeeBuzz
[04:36] <mwe> KeithWeisshar: having a 64bit cpu running in 32bit mode is kinda of a waste
[04:36] <KeithWeisshar> i have a pentium d 930 with 3ghz speed
[04:37] <cil3urn> KeithWeisshar, Yeah Ill trade you my XP 3200+ for that if you want haha
[04:37] <Healot> KeithWeisshar: if you encounter too many problem with 64bit ubuntu, i suggest you stick to 32bitr :)
[04:37] <Healot> cil3urn: I wont' do that
[04:37] <KeithWeisshar> does the 64-bit version have bugs
[04:37] <Healot> 32bit has bugs to KeithWeisshar :)
[04:38] <cil3urn> Healot, I removed and reinstalled gxine and now it looks like it is beginning to load video and goes blank
[04:38] <Healot> what type of video are you trying to play?
[04:38] <cil3urn> wmv
[04:38] <KeithWeisshar> will the 64-bit version compile faster than the 32-bit version
[04:39] <Healot> KeithWeisshar: I guess, never do the benchmark yet
[04:39] <bargain> hahah, no way
[04:39] <Healot> cil3urn, try other type of video first, avi or mpeg for example
[04:39] <cil3urn> ok
[04:39] <cil3urn> brb
[04:40] <bargain> 64-bit = needs high bandwidth
[04:40] <Healot> because some Windows MEdia files require special tailored codecs
[04:40] <kcbanner> Anyone wanna help me with madwifi setup on a laptop?
[04:40] <Healot> some are generic MPEG-4... but most of them proprietary  MPEG-4
[04:40] <Jaggz-> is it common to ask, "how do I know my ubuntu disto"?
[04:40] <kcbanner> I have got the modules loaded but no ath0 or anything appears
[04:40] <kcbanner> 0000:00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc.: Unknown device 001a (rev 01)
[04:40] <ocked> windows media format is apparently just a shell, silly sillyness
[04:41] <hadzhimurad> Assalamu aleykum
[04:41] <hadzhimurad> hola amigo
[04:41] <fblade> i need a good mulityplayer game for ubuntu anyideas?
[04:41] <Jaggz-> and my second question, how do I know what debian distros packages are compatible?
[04:41] <Jaggz-> my xine doesn't support some mpeg layer 2/3 codecs and it would really help if it did
[04:41] <Jaggz-> aleikumu salaam, himurad!
[04:42] <hadzhimurad> Jaggz- where are yo from?
[04:42] <Healot> Jaggz-, xine from repos? or self-build, or did you downloaded the Debian's package?
[04:42] <osotogari> Jaggz: cat /etc/issue will show you your version of Ubuntu
[04:43] <crimsun> osotogari: it's better to suggest ``lsb_release -r''
[04:43] <osotogari> oh ok, thanks for the correction crimsun. I'm still learning :(
[04:44] <Healot> osotogari, it is better, but your way is still correct
[04:44] <crimsun> osotogari: no, yours is fine, but lsb_release is the preferred way :-)
[04:44] <Jaggz-> hadz, los angeles?  I know a little bit more arabic than that, but not really much more :)
[04:44] <Healot> crimsun: like the microsoft way?
[04:44] <Jaggz-> Healot, I'm using ubuntu's packaged xine
[04:44] <Healot> Jaggz-, then you should not have problem playing MPEG2/3 audio
[04:44] <vmadmin> hi
[04:44] <osotogari> Cool :)
[04:45] <Jaggz-> I can say "besmellahe rahmaane rahim"
[04:45] <crimsun> Jaggz-: breezy or dapper?
[04:45] <Stormx2> How do I add a command to run on boot/startup without using GNOME's "sessions" dialog?
[04:45] <Jaggz-> how do I know my ubuntu version?  it's from a year ago.
[04:45] <Healot> Jaggz-: that's the worse romanization of arabic words that I've ever seen
[04:45] <yo> ola
[04:45] <Stormx2> hi
[04:45] <Jaggz-> storm, /etc/init.d and /etc/rc*.d stuff... you might want to read up on them.
[04:46] <crimsun> Jaggz-: lsb_release -r
[04:46] <gnomefreak> !version
[04:46] <ubotu> version is <reply> To find out what ubuntu version you have type 'lsb_release -a' in a terminal.
[04:46] <gnomefreak> oops
[04:46] <Jaggz-> healot, "besmellaahe rahmaane rahim" is fine.
[04:46] <crimsun> Jaggz-: I'm fairly certain you're not running into the issue I think
[04:46] <Healot> nay
[04:46] <Jaggz-> double a is sometimes used for the alef[-madde]  sound.
[04:46] <crimsun> ubotu: version =~ s/'/''/
[04:46] <ubotu> crimsun: i didn't have anything called 'version'
[04:46] <Jaggz-> 5.04 ?
[04:47] <cil3urn> you know what its been using mplayer to attempt to play my videos. I got .AVI files working and I could even get WMV if I went through google video to find them
[04:47] <Healot> it's "bismillahi rahman nirrahim"
[04:47] <Healot> nvm...
[04:48] <Healot> that's why romanization of many asian languages suck
[04:48] <shriphani> well folks i am back with another question
[04:49] <shriphani> gnome doesnt respond
[04:49] <Jaggz-> in some locations, especially most arab ones, the people pronounce the vowel sound (if written at all it looks like a / under the letter) .. they pronounce it similar to an i.  this is a gradient, however, and in other cultures (like that from which my wife comes) it's called "ezaafe" and is pronounced like an e (as in "dead")
[04:49] <gnomefreak> !offtopic
[04:49] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[04:49] <Jaggz-> and there's no "n" on the beginning of "rahim"  :)
[04:50] <shriphani> when i try to run packages like gparted and network-admin it asks for my password and when i type it in all it does is shut up
[04:50] <shriphani> no response @ all
[04:50] <Jaggz-> gnome, does that read, "'not' offtopic"?  :)
[04:50] <vmadmin> Can somehwlp me with portforwarding please my router can only forward to a single ip address , i have postfix that forwards to a mail client on my lan but with a diffrent IP address  in my router .
[04:50] <Jaggz-> okay.. n/m this.  back to getting xine to play these audio tracks.
[04:50] <shriphani> so synaptic and what not is completely closed to me
[04:50] <Healot> nir indicates a shaddah, Jaggz-
[04:50] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: for offtopic talk go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:51] <Jaggz-> I created them with ffmpeg -i dvdfile.vob dvdfile.mpg
[04:51] <shriphani> Healot, can you help me
[04:51] <Pip> shriphani, Hi
[04:51] <shriphani> hello
[04:51] <shriphani> can you please help me
[04:51] <Healot> shriphani: how does your GNOME responded?
[04:51] <cil3urn> Are there any HUGE advantages to running Daper rather than Breezy
[04:51] <shriphani> well it doesnt repond to such things
[04:52] <Healot> cil3urn: wait until, the stable release
[04:52] <Healot> then we will see
[04:52] <Stormx2> Jaggz-: Still there?
[04:52] <Jaggz-> yeah
[04:52] <shriphani> Healot, what i did was try to run network admin etc. it asks me for my password
[04:52] <cil3urn> Healot, that would probably be the best idea! lol
[04:52] <Jaggz-> did I say, lsb_release says 5.04 ..
[04:52] <Stormx2> I added a bash script to /etc/init.d/
[04:52] <max> feNNec: ta tu MSN
[04:52] <Stormx2> Do I need to do anything else?
[04:52] <shriphani> when i enter my pasword it goes and does nothing
[04:52] <shriphani> can you render me any help
[04:53] <|H-raf|> comment faire la mise a jour de aMSN ? vers la 0.95 ?
[04:53] <gnomefreak> shriphani: thats normally a sign of not having right password
[04:53] <Jaggz-> sym link to it from the proper runlevel /etc/rc#.d/ directory..
[04:53] <shriphani> that is the right password
[04:53] <Jaggz-> likely rc2 or rc3
[04:53] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo apt-get update   (tell me if that works
[04:53] <shriphani> ok
[04:53] <shriphani> it does
[04:53] <shriphani> done it loads of times
[04:54] <gnomefreak> |H-raf|: and max english in this channel only
[04:54] <cil3urn> shriphani, I aggree. Try running the program (just as a test) with the sudo command and another user name
[04:54] <shriphani> there is no other user name
[04:54] <cil3urn> shriphani, what about root
[04:54] <shriphani> ok
[04:54] <shriphani> let me try
[04:54] <gnomefreak> shriphani: what happens when you try running gksudo synaptic
[04:54] <Stormx2> Jaggz-: Was that directed at me?
[04:54] <Jaggz-> I'm trying to install the w3codecs package but can't find it.. then I added the marillat repository but it's erroring.
[04:55] <shriphani> it asks me for my password which i type in and then it plainly shuts up
[04:55] <Jaggz-> storm, yeah.
[04:55] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: dont add it use the wget command
[04:55] <Stormx2> !w32codecs
[04:55] <gnomefreak> !+w32codecs
[04:55] <ubotu> w32codecs is, like, a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install. To use w32codecs on a 64-bit system, see http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=54399
[04:55] <Jaggz-> k.. then I'll try to find the ftp site :)
[04:55] <cil3urn> shriphani, hmmm. This is the network-admin?
[04:55] <shriphani> huh
[04:55] <Stormx2> ill just try rebooting :
[04:55] <cil3urn> shriphani, the program your trying to run
[04:56] <Stormx2> see if that works
[04:56] <shriphani> well all gksudo associated programs dont work
[04:56] <scifi> hi guys, anyone know a channel on this server where i can ask about audio codecs for ubuntu/linux ?
[04:56] <gnomefreak> shriphani: but sudo works
[04:56] <shriphani> that includes synaptic, gparted, network-admin etc.
[04:56] <shriphani> yes it does
[04:56] <shriphani> sudo works
[04:57] <scifi> this what i want to ask is too specialist for here
[04:57] <cil3urn> but it hangs his programs
[04:57] <cil3urn> right?
[04:57] <shriphani> it does not hang anything
[04:57] <shriphani> it just doesnt run
[04:57] <Jaggz-> so.. hoary or not hoary?  how do I know thee?
[04:57] <shriphani> the desired program doesnt run
[04:57] <shriphani> quite frustruating
[04:57] <gnomefreak> shriphani: ps aux   << type that and tell me if any of the apps youve tried opening in gui are running?
[04:57] <scifi> i doubt anyone knows a player that supports .oma (sony) files ?
[04:57] <Jaggz-> system -> about works :)
[04:58] <Jaggz-> I am using a hoary hedgehog!
[04:58] <shriphani> no
[04:58] <shriphani> doesnt work
[04:58] <gnomefreak> hmmmmm
[04:58] <scifi> didnt think so, but anyone know a channel that might be able to help me ?
[04:58] <Stormx2> Right, time for a reboot ;-)
[04:59] <gnomefreak> it sounds like your gksudo permissions are scrambled  did you enable root password shriphani ?
[04:59] <shriphani> yes
[04:59] <gnomefreak> thats why
[05:00] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo apt-get update wont work either btw
[05:00] <shriphani> it works
[05:00] <gnomefreak> shriphani: no su <enter> apt-get update works
[05:00] <shriphani> i installed skype using sudo apt-get update install skype
[05:00] <gnomefreak> sudo apt-get update wont work
[05:00] <pramirez> ola
[05:00] <shriphani> it is working when i log in as root
[05:01] <shriphani> ok
[05:01] <gnomefreak> shriphani: but not when your not logged in as root
[05:01] <cil3urn> When that would happen to me I usually just reboot and it would work. You probably have tried this though
[05:01] <shriphani> let me try that
[05:01] <kcbanner> Anyone have problems with the update of Scrollkeeper, its giving me an error
[05:01] <rabwa> hi
[05:01] <shriphani> no it doesnt work when i am not root
[05:01] <cil3urn> try something simple like changing your password to something your sure of
[05:01] <gnomefreak> shriphani: thi sis one of many reasons ubuntu disables su
[05:01] <shriphani> oh
[05:01] <gnomefreak> shriphani: i know it wont
[05:02] <shriphani> any chances that you can make a correction
[05:02] <variant> shriphani: sudo apt-get install skype
[05:02] <gnomefreak> shriphani: you can try disabling it and adding yourself back to sudoers list here read this see if it helps
[05:02] <gnomefreak> !root
[05:02] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[05:02] <shriphani> ok
[05:02] <gnomefreak> variant: he cant
[05:02] <variant> gnomefreak: oh
[05:02] <shriphani> do i read what ubotu sent me ?
[05:03] <gnomefreak> shriphani: yes
[05:03] <variant> gnomefreak: i thought the issue was that he was runnign "sudo apt-get upgrade install skype" which of course wont work
[05:03] <shriphani> ok
[05:03] <vmadmin> Can somehwlp me with portforwarding please my router can only forward to a single ip address , i have postfix that forwards to a mail client on my lan but with a diffrent IP address  in my router .
[05:03] <gnomefreak> variant: he enabled su and now sudo doesnt work (in turn gksudo wont work)
[05:03] <Ng> vmadmin: your question doesn't entirely make sense - if you want to receive smtp from the outside, forward port 25 to the postfix server and it can then deliver internally on the lan
[05:04] <Jnoo> hi
[05:04] <Jnoo> anyone knows a simple firewall that does not consumes resources
[05:04] <vmadmin> Mg: ok just a sec
[05:04] <gnomefreak> Jnoo: whats wrong with iptables?
[05:04] <scifi> so noone has a sony network walkman/mp3 player  ?
[05:05] <Jnoo> gnomefreak nothing i just dont know the syntax.. i need something as a frontend
[05:05] <gnomefreak> Jnoo: firestarter
[05:05] <Jnoo> firestarter consumes resources
[05:05] <Jaggz-> this is "universe main restricted"... do I change it to "universe multiverse"?
[05:05] <gnomefreak> Jnoo: all gui front ends will
[05:06] <shriphani> well i have read it
[05:06] <Jnoo> but not like it
[05:06] <Jaggz-> the example on the webpage just says "universe" to "universe multiverse"... I'm not sure what to do with the "main restricted"
[05:06] <Jnoo> the cpu become scrazy
[05:06] <shriphani> almost everything is not recommended there
[05:06] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: leave main restricted alone
[05:06] <Jaggz-> and Ir eally have to get this done and out of the way so I can get this apparently very serious video editing done :(
[05:06] <Jnoo> also it has bugs
[05:06] <shriphani> gnomefreak, now what ?
[05:06] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: the lines that end in universe hit space bar add word multiverse after it
[05:07] <Jaggz-> oh.. leave that one alone entirely?  oops
[05:07] <Jnoo> ok
[05:07] <Jnoo> is there a way
[05:07] <Jaggz-> I left the "main restricted" in.. but now it says "universe main restricted multiverse" :)
[05:07] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: yes
[05:08] <Jaggz-> okay.. I'll take that back out
[05:08] <Jnoo> to use the iptables that firestarter makes.. without the need to launch it
[05:08] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: in the "main" repos you dont want universe nor multiverse
[05:08] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Jaggz- about universe
[05:08] <Jnoo> i will launch it only when i need to change the iptables
[05:08] <vmadmin> Mg: is not on a LAN but I thought it was the same thing. Here we go I have postfix on ubuntu and a guest os on vmware its like a diffrent physical os but its on the same machine (virtual) now my host ubuntu has ip <IP_ADDRESS> my guest has ip <IP_ADDRESS>  so do i port forward to or from my guest ? and since the mail client will receive on on the pop port of 110
[05:09] <mwe> Jnoo: firestarter adds a boot script that loads the tables
[05:09] <shriphani> gnomefreak, please help me
[05:09] <max> salut
[05:09] <max> salutcava
[05:09] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo passwd -l root
[05:09] <gnomefreak> shriphani: you didnt read the page
[05:09] <indotel> HOLA
[05:09] <shriphani> what will that do
[05:09] <Ng> vmadmin: the vmware os should be able to talk to the host os without any port forwarding
[05:09] <gnomefreak> shriphani: lock root and bring you back to sudo
[05:09] <Jnoo> mwe: yes but when u shut it down i dont know what happens to the iptables
[05:10] <shriphani> will that mean that i should login to graphic application as root ???"?
[05:10] <gnomefreak> indotel: /join #ubuntu-es
[05:10] <indotel> YOU CAN SPANISH
[05:10] <Ng> vmadmin: you only need port forwarding from your router if you want machines on the internet to be able to talk to your internal machines
[05:10] <vmadmin> Mg: thats good news
[05:10] <gnomefreak> shriphani: no
[05:10] <shriphani> ok
[05:10] <Jaggz-> I can spanish
[05:10] <shriphani> so i just carry on with what the page tells me ?
[05:11] <Jaggz-> I'm sleepy and stressed and have to get this done.  I feel sensitive and feel like crying right now.  Heh.  Ever feel that way when you're tired?
[05:11] <Jaggz-> exhausted
[05:11] <gnomefreak> shriphani: run the command i gave you
[05:11] <murph2481_> my question is howcome only sometimes i have to go into the control center and deativate and reactate the card to get a connection?
[05:11] <Jaggz-> no puedes hablar en ingles?
[05:11] <vmadmin> Mg: the only peple on the internet will need to connect to my MTA postfix
[05:11] <gnomefreak> shriphani: after you run it make sure you have a $ at terminal prompt than type sudo apt-get update
[05:11] <Ng> vmadmin: then you just need to forward port 25 to the ubuntu machine
[05:11] <Jaggz-> damn.  Couldn't stat source package list http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net_dists_hoary-extras_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory
[05:11] <shriphani> ok
[05:12] <vmadmin> Mg:yep thats seems ok them
[05:12] <shriphani> done
[05:12] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: mirrormax backports havent worked in almost a year
[05:12] <shriphani> no results
[05:12] <Jaggz-> heh..
[05:12] <yancheng> any java programmer here, had experienced non-stop crashing of netbeans 5.0 in java 5????
[05:12] <Jaggz-> well that's what you had ubotu tell me :)
[05:12] <Jaggz-> no wait.. the webpage told me.
[05:12] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: and the backports are _not_ for universe and multiverse you still need to enable universe and multiverse
[05:12] <Mystery47> murph2481_:i had that same problem when i was using breezy very long time ago...
[05:13] <gnomefreak> shriphani: it didnt run?
[05:13] <shriphani> no
[05:13] <shriphani> it didnt seriously run
[05:13] <Mystery47> murph2481_: but later that just disappeared....(?)
[05:13] <shriphani> it immediately came back to shriphani@ubuntu
[05:13] <murph2481_> Mystery47 its only here and there....just wondering why I have a atheros wifi card
[05:13] <shriphani> shriphani@ubuntu$
[05:13] <gnomefreak> does it have a $ or a #
[05:13] <gnomefreak> ok
[05:13] <shriphani> $
[05:13] <vmadmin> Mg: ok do i understnd that 25 on my ubuntu machine is now open or at least thats what telnet tells me is that what you mean
[05:13] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo -i
[05:14] <shriphani> done
[05:14] <shriphani> nothing happened again
[05:14] <Jaggz-> gnome.  I'm not sure I understand.  I just need w32codecs.
[05:14] <gnomefreak> shriphani: su
[05:14] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: i told you use the wget command
[05:14] <shriphani> asks for my password
[05:14] <Mystery47> murph2481_: ok.....:)
[05:14] <shriphani> do i type it in ?
[05:14] <gnomefreak> shriphani: go ahead for now
[05:14] <Jnoo> !iptables
[05:14] <shriphani> logged in as root
[05:14] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Jaggz- about restricted
[05:15] <gnomefreak> shriphani: ok now go back to $
[05:15] <shriphani> i.e. type exit ?
[05:15] <shriphani> done
[05:16] <Stormx2> Damn this is so fustrating! Trying to get a java server to run on startup
[05:16] <Stormx2> it doesn't start and doesn't output any errors or text
[05:16] <pramirez> ola

[05:17] <scifi> noone know of a linux alternative to sonicstage ?
[05:17] <shriphani> gnomefreak, ?
[05:17] <Stormx2> scifi: What is it?
[05:17] <gnomefreak> shriphani: im thinking
[05:17] <zatlab> hey all, someone an idea why my ubuntu 5.10 won't reboot? it freezes after the message "System restarting"
[05:17] <gnomefreak> shriphani: that command should have worked ok lets try this
[05:17] <scifi> sonys mp3 player syncing/playback software
[05:18] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo passwd -l root
[05:18] <gnomefreak> shriphani: does it ask for password?
[05:18] <shriphani> no
[05:18] <gnomefreak> shriphani: just brought you back to $
[05:18] <Jaggz-> I still can't find a working repository for hoary
[05:18] <shriphani> yes
[05:18] <zatlab> someone an idea why my ubuntu 5.10 won't reboot? it freezes after the message "System restarting"
[05:18] <gnomefreak> shriphani: restart the terminal please
[05:18] <shriphani> so does that mean that the entire sudo package is missing ?
[05:18] <Stormx2> scifi: Syncing with what? Theres plenty of media players ^_^ as for downloads, Nicotine. burning, k3b, etc
[05:19] <shriphani> done
[05:19] <gnomefreak> !restricted
[05:19] <ubotu> somebody said restricted was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[05:19] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: hold on
[05:19] <wizzermetimers> hello all
[05:19] <Jaggz-> don't worry yet.. I found an ftp site
[05:19] <scifi> Stormx2: with sony network walkmans/mp3 players
[05:19] <Jaggz-> ftp://cipherfunk.org/pub/packages/ubuntu/pool/main/w/w32codecs/
[05:19] <shriphani> is that thing by ubotu for me ?
[05:19] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: type this in terminal wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.4_i386.deb
[05:19] <gnomefreak> shriphani: no
[05:19] <Jaggz-> heh :)
[05:20] <scifi> Stormx2: it will need to handle sonys propriety format .oma files
[05:20] <shriphani> ok
[05:20] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: -c stops it from asking about the certificate
[05:20] <Jaggz-> oh... cool option to remember
[05:20] <GT-DickBrewer`> hello, i've got a problem, is there anyone that can help me?
[05:20] <Stormx2> scifi: let me see
[05:20] <Jaggz-> are you sure?  what cert?
[05:20] <Jaggz->        -c
[05:20] <Jaggz->        --continue
[05:20] <Jaggz->            Continue getting a partially-downloaded file.  This is useful when you want to finish up a download started by a previous instance of Wget, or
[05:20] <gnomefreak> GT-DickBrewer`: you have yet to state your issue
[05:20] <gnomefreak> oh ok
[05:20] <Jaggz-> ack.. sorry .. the -c was supposed to be on the same line ... no wait..it wasn't .. *sigh*... I'm very sorry for the paste.
[05:21] <Stormx2> scifi: Wait, why do you have music in .oma?
[05:21] <gnomefreak> than after its downloading use sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[05:21] <GT-DickBrewer`> gnomefreak i've already have ubuntu for a while on my computer, but i didnt use it for a long time. now i want to log in but i forget the username and password. is there a way to get it back?
[05:21] <GT-DickBrewer`> or to change it atleast
[05:21] <wizzermetimers> I had gentoo installed a  hda and another hard drive hdb had two xfs paritions that i had sub dirs on. Anyway I deleted the HDA NOT HDB, and installed ubuntu, all worked fine, now im trying to mount my other partitions on the other drive and I'm getting mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /mnt/hard1/ busy, (they arn't mounted already) I've loaded up gnuparted and my paritions are there on HDB, but they have LBA flags set. what do
[05:21] <wizzermetimers> es that mean?
[05:21] <gnomefreak> !lostpassword
[05:21] <ubotu> lostpassword is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LostPassword
[05:21] <zatlab> !reboot
[05:21] <ubotu> zatlab: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:21] <zatlab> !acpi
[05:21] <ubotu> zatlab: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:21] <scifi> Stormx2: most people say it will never happen because of the DRM  issues, but some of my files do not have DRM, because latest version of sonicstage allows u to rip without DRM
[05:22] <Jaggz-> Holy video.  It works.
[05:22] <wizzermetimers> err, that was bad diatribes
[05:22] <Jaggz-> Eureka.
[05:22] <wizzermetimers> should i rephrase ?
[05:22] <zatlab> someone an idea why my ubuntu 5.10 won't reboot? it freezes after the message "System restarting"
[05:22] <Jaggz-> Thank you!  Who helped me again?
[05:22] <gnomefreak> zatlab: dont play witht he bot
[05:22] <GT-DickBrewer`> ok, thx
[05:22] <scifi> Stormx2: because i have ripped my cds in that format , quality is better than mp3 at lower bitrates, plus improves battery life for my mp3 player using that format
[05:22] <Stormx2> scifi: Why not use ogg?
[05:22] <Jaggz-> gnomefreak helped.. thanks :), for one...
[05:22] <zatlab> hey eddie_
[05:22] <osotogari> well that was a pretty easy network printer install! Sweet
[05:22] <Stormx2> Hmm ok
[05:22] <Stormx2> But
[05:22] <Stormx2> As far as I can tell from google
[05:23] <Stormx2> it won't be supported
[05:23] <wizzermetimers> It's 1.30 am here
[05:23] <scifi> Stormx2: the point is i ALREADY have some ripped in .oma
[05:23] <Jaggz-> well.. now I wasn't joking about this having to be done, so I do have to go, and I don't mean to be rude
[05:23] <eddie_> hello everybody
[05:23] <Stormx2> purely because thats just plain silly : if you must use a propietry format use mp3.
[05:23] <Jaggz-> thanks, gnome.. maybe I'll see you again sometime.
[05:23] <lagm> hollaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[05:23] <Jaggz-> goodbye folks :)
[05:23] <Jaggz-> hola.. y adios
[05:23] <juliangallego86> i need help for registering in freenode
[05:24] <lagm> helpppppppppppppp
[05:24] <scifi> Stormx2: i knew this, but thought someone might know of any new developments to support it
[05:24] <lagm> helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[05:24] <Ng> !tell lagm about ask
[05:24] <lagm> what the matter?
[05:24] <rggjan> Hi you all!
[05:24] <rggjan> Anyone knows what to do when "There are differences between boot sector and its backup. " on a Fat32 partition?
[05:24] <lagm> hi you all
[05:25] <Stormx2> scifi: Purely because I've never heard of it before, and the fact that its propreity, I doubt it will get support unless it gets more widely used
[05:25] <rggjan> Did a fsck.vfat...
[05:25] <juliangallego86> anyone can tell me how is the register in freenode
[05:25] <wizzermetimers> I had gentoo installed on a hardrive (hda) and I had another hard drive (hdb) which had two xfs paritions on them. Anyway I deleted the HDA NOT HDB, and installed ubuntu, all worked fine on that side of things. Now i'm trying to mount my two partitions on the second hard drive (HDB) but  I'm getting these errors "mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /mnt/hard1/ busy", (they arn't mounted already) I've loaded up gnuparted and my pa
[05:25] <wizzermetimers> ritions are there on HDB, but they have LBA flags set. what does that mean?
[05:25] <scifi> Stormx2: its been used for the past 8 years atleast for minidisc players
[05:25] <rggjan> Could I do another backup of the boot sector?
[05:26] <wizzermetimers> I've loaded up gnuparted and my paritions are there on HDB, but they have LBA flags set. what does that mean?
[05:26] <Stormx2> !info daemontools
[05:26] <ketsugi> I thought MDs use ATRAC
[05:26] <max> salut salut
[05:26] <wizzermetimers> they show as XFS too, so I don't see why I can't be mounting them
[05:26] <Ng> ketsugi: correct, but that's probably what OMA is, Sony's most recent mp3 players try to make you use ATRAC3 instead of mp3
[05:27] <milton> Hola, Alguien habla espaol, castellano o algo parecido??
[05:27] <Ng> !es
[05:27] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[05:27] <variant> wizzermetimers: that just means logical brlock addressing
[05:27] <ketsugi> oh
[05:27] <wizzermetimers> oh ok
[05:27] <ketsugi> well the last time I used an MD player was before the NetMDs came about
[05:27] <wizzermetimers> well then, can anyone give me any other suggestions for why it isn't mounting?
[05:27] <rggjan> Noone who knows something about FAT32?
[05:27] <wizzermetimers> I have XFS support in kernel, and xfstools etc
[05:27] <variant> wizzermetimers: what error is it?
[05:28] <wizzermetimers> "mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /mnt/hard1/ busy"
[05:28] <milton> gracias pero soy nuevo en esto y no vi ese canal de ubuntu-es
[05:28] <rggjan> Or its bootsector?
[05:28] <wizzermetimers> it isn't mounted already
[05:28] <scifi> Ng: yes ATRAC/oma same thing, .oma is the file extension
[05:28] <wizzermetimers> and that directory isn't busy
[05:28] <variant> wizzermetimers: umount /dev/hdb1&& mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hard1
[05:28] <shriphani> gnomefreak, are you there ?
[05:29] <Ng> wizzermetimers: check "sudo tail -100 /var/log/syslog" for any related errors
[05:29] <scifi> also ATRAC is the only format i know that supports continous playback of mixes without pauses in between (unless flac/ogg does)
[05:29] <rendo> Why is it that when I try and install ThunderBird 1.5, it doesn't work and gives some stupid things about -maxdepth?
[05:29] <wizzermetimers> umount: /dev/hdb1: not mounted
[05:29] <gnomefreak> shriphani: im not sure how to add you back to sudoers and get rid of su. Ng  maybe you know?
[05:29] <wizzermetimers> ok
[05:29] <mephis1987> http://sam.zoy.org/wtfpl/COPYING :))

[05:29] <shriphani> ok
[05:30] <Ng> gnomefreak: "adduser someusername admin" as root, so it may need a reboot into recovery mode if there is no root user or user with sudo access available
[05:30] <Dkt1> How do I save something in my /etc folder?
[05:30] <rggjan> Can noone help me ... ?
[05:30] <wizzermetimers> Mg: nothing of any relivence
[05:30] <wizzermetimers> variant, it doesnt show in mount
[05:30] <gnomefreak> shriphani: use that command
[05:30] <variant> wizzermetimers: not even /mnt/hard1 ?
[05:30] <Stormx2> how do I temp. get root?
[05:30] <cil3urn> rggjan, whats up?
[05:30] <variant> wizzermetimers: are you root?
[05:30] <cil3urn> what was your question
[05:30] <wizzermetimers> i'm using sudo
[05:31] <shriphani> ok
[05:31] <variant> wizzermetimers: become root with sudo and then try
[05:31] <variant> just a hunch
[05:31] <shriphani> in place of someusername can i type anything
[05:31] <variant> Stormx2: sudo su -

[05:32] <ferronica> :)
[05:32] <shriphani> should i type in the name of an existing user ?
[05:32] <wizzermetimers> variant,  ok thanks
[05:32] <variant> later
[05:32] <wizzermetimers> one thing I should point out though fdisk shows the partitons as w95 Ext'd
[05:33] <wizzermetimers> not XFS
[05:33] <shriphani> it says the group admin does not exist
[05:33] <wizzermetimers> but gnuparted shows them as XFS
[05:33] <rggjan> what should I do now?
[05:33] <ferronica> gnomefreak: hi buddy
[05:33] <rggjan> Could I make another backup of the bootsector, then try to overwrite the original boot sector?
[05:33] <usuario> ddddddd
[05:33] <usuario> lklk
[05:33] <gnomefreak> shriphani: im sorry im not real sure
[05:33] <gnomefreak> .opme
[05:33] <shriphani> ok
[05:33] <Dkt1> Is it possible to create, write, and save textdocuments in terminal? In that case, how?
[05:33] <ferronica> gnomefreak: Do u know any channel where i can talk about which speakers to buy creative Or Altec Lansing????
[05:34] <shriphani> so can no one help me
[05:34] <gnomefreak> ferronica: no
[05:34] <cil3urn> rggjan, I would say yes if your trying to backup your bootsector
[05:34] <ferronica> gnomefreak: OH :0
[05:34] <ferronica> gnomefreak: Ok u tell me which one is good
[05:34] <rggjan> No, I'm trying to ripair the filesystem...
[05:34] <cil3urn> rggjan, are you afraid to install grub?
[05:34] <ferronica> gnomefreak: In 2.0
[05:35] <nathansnook> Moving to Ubuntu is this going to be a hard trans
[05:35] <rggjan> But I don't know if the backup or the original boot sector is the correct one
[05:35] <cil3urn> rggjan, did you ever backup the bootsector?
[05:35] <rggjan> no, not myself
[05:35] <wizzermetimers> does anyone know if windows support xfs?
[05:35] <wizzermetimers> I might try sticking it in a win comp and seeing if it can access the partitions
[05:35] <rggjan> but I had recently some problems with the harddrive
[05:36] <andersbr> Does anyone know why apt-get wants to remove Eclipse when I ask it to remove mozilla?
[05:36] <rggjan> suddendly it worked again, but that's what dosfsck shows
[05:36] <shriphani> so is no one able to help me
[05:36] <shriphani> can anyone tell me what the problem is /
[05:36] <cil3urn> rggjan, I would say copy original to backup and than. Use the backup to restore it
[05:37] <Mystery47> nathansnook: no its not hard. only thing is you must think otherwise like in windows....:9
[05:37] <shriphani> is an entire sudo package missing
[05:37] <rggjan> But what if the original is corrupt? then the backup is lost!
[05:37] <ferronica> gnomefreak: ?????????????????????
[05:38] <cil3urn> yeah but did you say it mysteriously started working?
[05:38] <rggjan> There's a "Differences: (offset:original/backup) 65:01/00"
[05:38] <ferronica> #windows
[05:38] <gnomefreak> ferronica: i dont know anything about speakers why not ask the channel and get a better answer
[05:38] <cil3urn> rggjan, Im not to sure about that....
[05:39] <shriphani> gnomefreak, can you suggest any other channel where i can get help
[05:39] <ferronica> gnomefreak: i think today ur MOOD OFF
[05:39] <rggjan> Do you have an idea where else I could get help?
[05:39] <ferronica> gnomefreak: :(
[05:39] <gnomefreak> ferronica: im busy
[05:39] <rggjan> Tried it in the german Ubuntu-Forum already, but noone answered.
[05:39] <rggjan> Maybe another IRC channel?
[05:39] <rggjan> or something else?
[05:40] <cil3urn> let me see
[05:40] <shriphani> gnomefreak, can u tell me what my problem is at least so that i can approach someone else ??
[05:40] <youngcoder> how do i do a file search through terminal?
[05:41] <Mika_i_> youngcoder: updatedb and then locate file
[05:41] <fabim> how can i install ubuntu with floppy disks?
[05:41] <gnomefreak> shriphani: you need to get rid of root and go back to sudoer
[05:42] <cil3urn> rggjan, do you speak german by anychance?
[05:42] <cil3urn> lol
[05:42] <cil3urn> hold on im still looking
[05:43] <rggjan> german is my first language :-)
[05:43] <shriphani> gnomefreak, do you think it is a problem with my installation ?
[05:43] <trappist> if I'm funning a java app that requires a particular java lib, where do I put that lib (.jar) so I don't get a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError?
[05:44] <gnomefreak> shriphani: no your problem is caused by su
[05:44] <shriphani> ok
[05:44] <shriphani> but the command you gave me was of no help too
[05:45] <shriphani> thereby i couldnt disable sudo
[05:45] <trappist> s/funning/running/
[05:45] <andersbr> trappist: You should be able to add any path to your $CLASSPATH variable, and it will pick up the new jar.

[05:47] <shriphani> well gnomefreak , arent you familiar with this problem ?
[05:47] <shriphani> tab key
[05:47] <cil3urn> rggjan, I cannot find any specific channels but maybe this will help you; http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.php?t=3395&view=next&sid=0b464e7dfa8aa69eb536b8100271e74d
[05:47] <trappist> youngcoder: locate partoffilename
[05:47] <cil3urn> it is a link to a forum on the util
[05:47] <rggjan> Thanks a lot!
[05:48] <rggjan> Will try it
[05:48] <rsa_md5> when I try to install a driver in ubuntu 5.10, the setup programs asks for something like kernel source tree. What is this exactly?
[05:48] <cil3urn> rggjan, have you tried the man page
[05:48] <rggjan> mhm, but there's nothing about that
[05:48] <trappist> anto9us: that didn't work, but copying the jar to . worked
[05:49] <cil3urn> ok well these guys talk about repairing bad sectors which is part of what your trying to do
[05:49] <Ng> rsa_md5: if you search with apt-cache or synaptic you'll find a kernel-source package that matches your current kernel version - it probably wants that installed (which will go to /usr/src/)
[05:49] <rggjan> Well, it isn't exactly a bad sector, i think
[05:49] <anto9us> trappist, it seems andersbr has left the channel
[05:49] <shriphani> gnomefreak, can you refer a place i can go to for help ?
[05:50] <rggjan> isn't a bad sector unreadable due to a defect of the harddrive?
[05:50] <rggjan> And in my case it's only a difference of two sectors...
[05:50] <trappist> anto9us: oops :)
[05:50] <shriphani> dammit no one responds
[05:50] <gnomefreak> shriphani: yes right here ask the channel instead of me i see a few that i think can help you
[05:51] <scifi> do i install mplayer-386 or mplayer-custom ?
[05:51] <shriphani> please tell me who

[05:51] <ricardo> is there a better source list than the one ubuntu brings default? i try to do apt-get install gftp and not even that
[05:51] <gnomefreak> shriphani: when they are free they will help you
[05:51] <cil3urn> rggjan, yes but a util like this will move data off of it (or as much as possible) and put it on a good sector
[05:51] <gnomefreak> mitooz: dont paste in here
[05:51] <shriphani> oh
[05:52] <mitooz> gnomefreak: sorry
[05:52] <scifi> gnomefreak: best to install  mplayer-386 or mplayer-custom ?
[05:52] <shriphani> just tell me their nicks gnomefreak
[05:52] <cil3urn> rggjan, there seems to be nooo documentation to backing up or restoring with that specific util

[05:57] <ricardo> ok

[05:58] <r0xoR> ricardo, is this a fresh install? as in did you just install it within hours or days ago
[05:58] <ccc_> r0xoR: #ubuntu-zh is the chinese channel
[05:58] <Marticus> gnomefreak, lol thanks...
[05:58] <|H-raf|> izut whats the problem ?

[05:58] <Frogzoo> |H-raf|: no pasting

[05:58] <|H-raf|> ok sorry so whats the problem in sources.list ?
[05:58] <Frogzoo> !tell |H-raf| about pastebin
[05:59] <ricardo> no problem but i used to have more address i dont remember them :S
[05:59] <r0xoR> ricardo, used to have... so does that mean that you have (or something else has) changed the sources.list
[05:59] <Marticus> so basically, ubuntu versions do not coincide with a specific debian version
[05:59] <Marticus> is that correct?

[06:02] <r0xoR> Marticus, there are things that don't get done for you (most notably adding a user to the /etc/sudoers file and setting a root password. so be sure do to that yourself otherwise you'll be loxed of ur boxen
[06:02] <izut> |H-raf|: gksudo gedit /etc/sources.list
[06:02] <scifi> ne ideas guys ?
[06:03] <sangenfant> I'm having trouble with a distro upgrade and am unable to start x windows or any sound program, I erred out on the sudo install with a dpkg error, can anyone help resolve the errors I'm getting? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14272
[06:03] <eyesee>  hi, guys, I am meeting "Temporary failure in name resolution" when I execute '/etc/init.d/networking restart', what is the name resolution meaning?
[06:03] <|H-raf|> izut the same msg :s
[06:03] <Marticus> r0xoR: now that I think about it, I do recall having done an expert install at some point, and I remember needing to manually do a few things
[06:03] <Marticus> I just didn't remember if it let me not install X
[06:03] <Marticus> but server install seems to be what I needed to know
[06:03] <Marticus> thanks for that bit of advice
[06:04] <frfx> question about shipit: can i request 5 ubuntu cds and 1 kubuntu + 1 edubuntu?maybe it's a problem that i have 3 different request?one on https://shipit.edubuntu.org/ another on https://shipit.kubuntu.org/ and one on https://shipit.ubuntu.com/?
[06:04] <izut> |H-raf|: $ gksudo gedit /etc/sources.list (as your user, not root!)
[06:04] <Marticus> I will probably manually install xorg because it requires a lot of fine tunning to work with my laptop
[06:04] <gnomefreak> frfx: you can
[06:04] <Iam8up|lpy> can anyone tell me what the root password is on the live cd?
[06:04] <Frogzoo> eyesee: it means the dns server(s) mentioned in /etc/resolv.conf can't be reached
[06:04] <Marticus> yay for mobile systems...
[06:04] <frfx> gnomefreak: ok thanks
[06:04] <gnomefreak> Iam8up|lpy: there isnt one
[06:04] <Marticus> and their proprietary nature
[06:04] <Iam8up|lpy> gnomefreak - how do i su to root then?
[06:04] <|H-raf|> izut no the same msg :/
[06:05] <gnomefreak> Iam8up|lpy: you dont you use sudo
[06:05] <Frogzoo> Iam8up|lpy: sudo -i
[06:05] <Ng> !tell Iam8up|lpy about root
[06:05] <Marticus> so, should I consider dapper?
[06:05] <Frogzoo> Marticus: wait till june 1 at this stage
[06:05] <Marticus> for production use
[06:05] <gnomefreak> Marticus: in 2 weeks
[06:05] <Marticus> Frogzoo: very well, thank you
[06:05] <yuan> hi just a question
[06:05] <Marticus> thanks gnomefreak
[06:05] <gnomefreak> Marticus: yw
[06:06] <izut> |H-raf|: as root, check DISPLAY variable: # echo $DISPLAY
[06:06] <Marticus> I may idle here, but I rarely have an opportunity to actually participate, or at least read what is going on :)
[06:06] <yuan> u use  python  , import sys , and call sys,version function
[06:06] <Marticus> screen makes it easy to do that lol
[06:06] <gnomefreak> yuan: #python or #ubuntu-offtopic please
[06:06] <izut> |H-raf|: if it's defined, then as your user execute $ xhost +
[06:06] <Marticus> but I suppose in a strange sense, I am supporting the project with my "presence"
[06:06] <frfx> gnomefreak: do u have an idea when i will get the cds?because a lot of people will order cds..
[06:06] <yuan> gnomefreak :  o
[06:07] <sangenfant> Any ideas?
[06:07] <gnomefreak> frfx: 4-6 weeks from the time they are sent sometime in june they will be sent please read the faq on the shipit site
[06:07] <gnomefreak> later all
[06:07] <Almenfors> i need some help with gproftp. got it up and running but he wont let me in.. login incorrect. and im using correct login.

[06:08] <yuan> how can i know which version ubuntu i am use now ??
[06:08] <Frogzoo> yuan: lsb_release
[06:08] <steve-o> hi
[06:09] <izut> remember that will accept connection from any host to your X display, but now it should work.
[06:09] <izut> |H-raf|: why don't you use synaptic?
[06:09] <steve-o> i have problems installing it
[06:09] <Frogzoo> yuan: lsb_release -a
[06:09] <steve-o> i burned the iso two times
[06:09] <yuan> Frogzoo  :  thx
[06:09] <ferronica> hi guys
[06:09] <|H-raf|> izut h-raf@Bouzidi:~$ xhost +
[06:09] <|H-raf|> access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
[06:09] <sangenfant> wish I could use synaptic, it gave me issues when I tried the distro upgrade
[06:09] <steve-o> but when i put the disc into the drive. he searches for autoplay files but doesnst find any
[06:10] <jdmpike> nice processes rule
[06:10] <Frogzoo> |H-raf|: that's a _really_ bad idea
[06:10] <ferronica> Is there anyway to tranfer my whole ubuntu OS in another HDD
[06:10] <ferronica> In SATA
[06:10] <yuan> Frogzoo: but in python , sys.version does't return the same as lsb_release -a
[06:10] <izut> |H-raf|: try now. after you did what you want, xhost -
[06:10] <Almenfors> hum i must have a wierd version of gproftpd. now he wont even let me shut the service down.
[06:10] <raptros-v76> ferronica: probably not a good idea
[06:10] <steve-o> i tried to install it from windows is that is wrong
[06:10] <FliesLikeABrick> is us.archive.ubuntu.com responding incredibly slow/not at all for anyone else?
[06:11] <steve-o> can anybody jus answer
[06:11] <FliesLikeABrick> steve-o yes that is a bad idea
[06:11] <FliesLikeABrick> that will not work
[06:11] <|H-raf|> izut try what ?
[06:11] <soundray> steve-o: are you talking about an Ubuntu install CD?
[06:11] <Almenfors> anyone who could recomend a working easy ftp server. with gui (or support for using other admin tools) =)
[06:11] <steve-o> yes
[06:11] <izut> |H-raf|: sudo gedit /etc/sources.list
[06:11] <steve-o> i burned the iso
[06:11] <soundray> steve-o: you are meant to boot from it.
[06:11] <izut> |H-raf|: what the heck are you trying to do? update to user dapper repositories?
[06:12] <yuan> steve-o  :  u can put the cd in ur cd-rom and restart ur computer
[06:12] <steve-o> can i install it from windows?
[06:12] <soundray> steve-o: no.
[06:12] <steve-o> when i do so. it just starts windows
[06:12] <steve-o> so bios?
[06:12] <steve-o> mmh k
[06:12] <soundray> steve-o: you have to change your BIOS setup
[06:12] <izut> steve-o: configure your 'puter bios to boot from CD
[06:12] <Marticus> oh yeah, last question before I go to lunch... is the upgrade from breezy to dagger fairly straight forward
[06:12] <steve-o> k thx
[06:12] <Almenfors> steve-o, as i understand you have to boot up the install from ur cd
[06:12] <steve-o> bye
[06:12] <Marticus> I never had any difficulty upgrading debian versions
[06:12] <feg> !groups
[06:12] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, feg
[06:12] <Marticus> for the most part...
[06:13] <sangenfant> steve-o: can you burn boot CDs? I know some software skews this and doesn't allow for the boot from cds when burned.
[06:13] <feg> !group
[06:13] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, feg
[06:13] <walterius> bye
[06:13] <sangenfant> I was kinda slow on the response for steve-o.
[06:13] <sangenfant> does anyone have any ideas on my issue? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14272
[06:14] <soundray> sangenfant: yeah, we had someone here who copied the iso to a CD, rather than creating a CD from the image...

[06:15] <soundray> sangenfant: you can force the install to overwrite the file that is also in another package. This can be dangerous, but I reckon it will be okay in your situation.
[06:15] <Ng> Iam8up|lpy: have you created an entry for it in /etc/fstab? if so you can specify options like "user" if you want users (ie you) to be able to mount it, or if you want it mounting automatically you can usually specify uid/gid options with your user id/group id so it gets mounted as your user and you have access
[06:16] <Iam8up|lpy> Ng - no, just a mount (i'm using a livd cd
[06:16] <sangenfant> soundray: and that's the apt-get -f install, right?
[06:16] <soundray> sangenfant: so do 'sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/libofx2_1%3a0.8.0-3ubuntu8_i386.deb'
[06:16] <|H-raf|> izut http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14274
[06:16] <wims> does anybody know of a media player that will play .asx files in breezy ?=
[06:16] <Ng> Iam8up|lpy: ok, well unmount it, run "id" in a terminal to get your uid, then mount it again with "-o uid=YOURUIDHERE"
[06:16] <genjix> wims: kaffeine with asx support i think
[06:16] <Ng> Iam8up|lpy: I think that should do the trick
[06:16] <soundray> sangenfant: no, the -f in apt-get means fix-missing. It won't help for this type of problem (as you've noticed)
[06:16] <genjix> well gentoo does anyway
[06:17] <Iam8up|lpy> so mount -o uid=501 -t ntfs sdjflkdsjf lkjfdslskdf
[06:17] <Iam8up|lpy> correct?
[06:17] <izut> |H-raf|: I know what you are doing. I asked you about what you *want* to do editing that file.
[06:17] <genjix> anyone know why I have an empty loopback table when I do route -n? Its kind of alarming.
[06:17] <wims> genjix, do you know which repos kaffeine is in ? It's not KDE is it ?
[06:17] <genjix> wims: yes
[06:17] <|H-raf|> izut to add my new depot http://cereli.org/index.php?page=fichier/config/sources.list
[06:18] <soundray> wims: at least some asx files play with mplayer once you've installed w32codecs
[06:18] <Trackilizer> How does one use "apt-get" to remove any packages that were installed via "apt-get"??
[06:18] <questioner> the bar at the bottom of my screen after i clicked 'dont reload' on startup, is there a way i can get it back to the way it is by default?
[06:18] <soundray> Trackilizer: apt-get remove packagename (or apt-get --purge remove packagename if you want to be thorough)
[06:18] <izut> |H-raf|: I can't remember if nano is installed by default, as I'm not running Ubuntu at this moment, but you can try it... # nano /etc/sources.list
[06:18] <Trackilizer> I see.
[06:18] <izut> |H-raf|: it's very intuitive, and text based.
[06:18] <Frogzoo> Trackilizer: dpkg --purge
[06:18] <Trackilizer> Thanks.
[06:19] <genjix> no one knows anything about my problem?
[06:19] <izut> |H-raf|: I don't know what is causing the problem you have.
[06:19] <|H-raf|> izut i have nqno installed
[06:19] <genjix> anyone know why I have an empty loopback table when I do route -n? Its kind of alarming.
[06:19] <|H-raf|> izut i have nano installed
[06:19] <soundray> genjix: is anything not working?
[06:19] <MisterN> hi
[06:19] <izut> |H-raf|: so use it to edit your /etc/sources.list file. there's life outside X :)
[06:20] <questioner> anyone?
[06:21] <soundray> questioner: do you mean the bottom panel?
[06:21] <|H-raf|> izut after what i tape in consote to upgrade ?
[06:21] <genjix> soundray: nope
[06:21] <questioner> yes
[06:21] <izut> |H-raf|: apt-get update, then apt-get upgrade
[06:21] <soundray> genjix: then don't diagnose. Chances are you're only going to worry yourself and fix something that isn't broken.
[06:21] <izut> |H-raf|: I'm pretty sure that exists a lot of good documentation about that in Ubuntu wiki
[06:22] <sangenfant> soundray: seems the problem got worse, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14276, although nothing really got done.
[06:22] <soundray> questioner: right-click on the top panel and select Add Panel.
[06:22] <genjix> soundray: no, I have no networking. an empty routing table and eth0 down
[06:22] <soundray> sangenfant: no, not worse. Now rerun sudo apt-get -f install
[06:23] <xanavim> does anyone know a SID to MP3 or OGG converter?  or a way to record the audio streamed to ALSA?
[06:23] <genjix> I just want to set up my gateway, which is easy enough in gentoo but its not working in ubuntu for some odd reason
[06:23] <questioner> ty
[06:23] <bork> I'm trying to mount my usb drive, but nautilus/gnome is not automounting it for me anymore (it will if I reboot)
[06:23] <bork> lsusb does not list the drive
[06:23] <bork> is there some way I can kick the usb module?
[06:23] <sangenfant> I'll be a monkey's uncle.

[06:24] <Almenfors> does anyone have a good ftp server to recomend for a total newb =)
[06:24] <eyesee> Frogzoo: sorry :( I just installed ubutu6.06. and I am setting up a LAN: one server connected directly to internet using xDSL, and a client machine using the server's IP as the gateway, that is <IP_ADDRESS>. I copied the resolv.conf from the server <IP_ADDRESS> to my client machine, so I think the nameserver listed is okay. You mean it is not workable?
[06:24] <soundray> genjix: have you tried System-Administration-Networking?
[06:24] <genjix> doesn't work either
[06:24] <ompaul>  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[06:25] <walterius> newbie to irc chat: how do i join in the conversation?
[06:25] <Frogzoo> eyesee: see if you can ping the dns server - i think not
[06:25] <soundray> Almenfors: if you are a total newb, then don't install an ftp server, I'd say. Use scp to transfer files instead.
[06:25] <mwosh> just type walter
[06:25] <mwosh> lol
[06:25] <genjix> in fact, restarting networking [fail]  but start is [ok]

[06:28] <yuan> soundray : maybe  , i just wanna know how to change chanel
[06:29] <eyesee> Frogzoo: the server is connected to internet with xDSL, so the nameserver is not useful, is it?

[06:36] <sexyLady> mmmmmm
[06:36] <izut> sexyLady: ok, the long answer is mp3 is a restricted format. it's not enabled on Ubuntu by default, you have to install some packages to make it work.
[06:36] <Hajuu> how does one seperate multiple commands in one line with irssi?
[06:37] <Seantater> chmod o+rw /media/hda1
[06:37] <sexyLady> package??
[06:37] <Seantater> pineapple: here -->   chmod o+rw /media/hda1
[06:37] <pineapple> k
[06:37] <izut> sexyLady: packages are how applications are installed on Ubuntu.

[06:37] <cheziyi> sexyLady, in other words, just go to this url: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats

[06:38] <pineapple> how do you mean?
[06:38] <Seantater> pineapple: just data? or an OS?
[06:38] <TheBigToe> and also, talking of xchat, is there any way to make the chanlist go down the side of the window?
[06:38] <Seantater> pineapple: that command may totally kill an OS, but it won;t hurt data
[06:38] <pineapple> Seantater: hda1 has the windows OS installed, hda2 is another windows partition
[06:38] <sexyLady> if i want lisen music mp3???
[06:39] <Seantater> pineapple: hum -- what may not do it anyway

[06:40] <Almenfors> is there any apt- command for searching downloable pkg's
[06:41] <Seantater> !pastebin
[06:41] <ubotu> well, pastebin is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[06:41] <sexyLady> yes
[06:41] <TheBigToe> thanks eggzeck

[06:41] <izut> sexyLady: va l entonces mujer!
[06:42] <mwosh> metatag: i dont use emacs too much, it seemed pretty limited for the purposes i needed it.  I'd say it might be a good idea to find another IDE from google or something

[06:44] <izut> GazzaK: karma :) we use that in #perl
[06:45] <GazzaK> Sjors, have you looked at k3b?
[06:45] <izut> more karma
[06:45] <mwosh> i use and like the .net studio the best there are so many plugins and conversions you could run any language on it..., but that may not be avaliable to you.  Are you looking for a free IDE?
[06:45] <GazzaK> karma is nice, thanks
[06:45] <Sjors> Thx
[06:45] <Seantater> pineapple: change it to this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14280
[06:46] <GazzaK> Sjors, not sure if it'll do what you need, but it is a damn good cdr/dvdr burnign tool

[06:47] <sexyLady> ok
[06:47] <Sjors> It's possible to burn an DVD or VCD With it and thats good ^^..
[06:47] <jramsey> imported a word doc with embedded graphics as figured; open office is hanging now after i tried to page past one of the figures; any ideas??
[06:48] <Seantater> pineapple: a read-only one (much more safe - NTFS drivers are experimental) --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14282
[06:48] <jramsey> as figures
[06:48] <Seantater> pineapple: gtg
[06:48] <Seantater> pineapple: bye
[06:48] <pineapple> ok
[06:49] <sexyLady> ya coloque el comando
[06:49] <pineapple> thanks for the help
[06:49] <sexyLady> y saleron muchas letras
[06:49] <TheBigToe> how do I get read access to an ntfs drive?
[06:49] <TheBigToe> it says I don't have the right permissions
[06:49] <jramsey> TheBigToe, the drive is a windows drive?
[06:49] <TheBigToe> yeah
[06:49] <GazzaK> erm, am I getting this right, we are all suggesting a spanish place for sexyLady to go to, but she is still talking spanish here?
[06:50] <TheBigToe> hah
[06:50] <GazzaK> or is that just 'cos I have no idea what she is saying
[06:50] <jramsey> TheBigToe, well, e.g., in winxp right click the drive / sharing  then check the Allow network ujsers to change my files
[06:50] <GazzaK> it might be "thanks for giving me some wonderful links see you later"
[06:50] <jramsey> it'll take a bit while it runs thru its braindead file system changing permissions
[06:50] <TheBigToe> jramsey, the drive's on this PC?
[06:51] <TheBigToe> er, minus the >
[06:51] <TheBigToe> er, ?
[06:51] <TheBigToe> I can't type today
[06:51] <jramsey> TheBigToe, so it's not a drive controlled by windows ... just an ntfs drive mounted on linux?
[06:51] <mwosh> It seems like this is the only active chat IRC room i've been in for a while
[06:51] <Doat> when i try to blank a cd-rw with gnomebaker it fails with: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14281 what should i do?
[06:51] <TheBigToe> jramsey, yes
[06:51] <TheBigToe> well, I think it's mounted, I think it's hda1
[06:52] <semboy> i open up synaptic package manager  and than i search for nvidia Once the search is complete i see a list off stuff -what do i choose?
[06:52] <mwe> TheBigToe: it's not safe to write to ntfs from linux. to let all users have read accass put umask=0222 under mount options in /etc/fstab
[06:52] <TheBigToe> if I have a swap partition, a windows partition, and a linux partition, would the windows show up as /media/hda1 or/media/hda2?
[06:52] <semboy> i am trying to update or install a video card
[06:52] <beford> sexyLady, #ubuntu-es
[06:52] <TheBigToe> oh, thanks mwe
[06:53] <jramsey> TheBigToe, what are the opens in the disk line in /etc/fstab
[06:53] <TheBigToe> one second
[06:53] <jramsey> TheBigToe, mwe answered it
[06:53] <Samuli^> mwe, doesn't that take away read access?
[06:53] <alek> hi
[06:53] <mwe> Samuli^: no
[06:53] <Samuli^> umask works in opposite of chmod
[06:53] <mwosh> Anyone know any other good rooms on this server?
[06:53] <mwe> Samuli^: it's a mask
[06:53] <Samuli^> it takes away rights.
[06:53] <jstraw> I'm having an issue with a 5.10 install on a sata drive
[06:53] <jstraw> the install worked fine
[06:54] <TheBigToe> so I should change /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults        0       0 to what?
[06:54] <alek> does anybody know, if there is any way to share internet by bluetooth in ubuntu?
[06:54] <Samuli^> and 2= read, right?
[06:54] <jstraw> but when I went to boot the first time it failed to find inittab
[06:54] <mwe> Samuli^: that will mount it 555
[06:54] <mwe> Samuli^: the two will mask out write
[06:54] <Samuli^> mwe, ah, okay.
[06:54] <alek> or ubuntu only can share files via BT?
[06:54] <mwe> Samuli^: rwx are 4 2 1 respectively
[06:55] <mrblack> Hello, I have a Sony HMD-A240 monitor with no driver, I've tried many ways to try and force a refresh of 85 and a color depth of 32bits with no success, can anyone direct me to how I can make these changes?
[06:55] <serp> !smbmount
[06:55] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, serp
[06:55] <semboy> i open up synaptic package manager  and than i search for nvidia Once the search is complete i see a list Like linux-restricted-moudels  -the white box next to the following packages and select Mark for Installation in the menu that pops up: shude i install all the stuff?
[06:55] <semboy> or what
[06:55] <Doat> when i try to blank a cd-rw with gnomebaker it fails with: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14281 what should i do?
[06:55] <onePhatMind> mrblack, try generic monitor with your specs..
[06:55] <mrblack> I did
[06:55] <TheBigToe> mwe, so should I change /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults        0       0 to /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults,umask=0222        0       0?
[06:56] <mrblack> in the xorg.conf and through xrandr
[06:56] <onePhatMind> mrblack, what happened?
[06:56] <mrblack> no luck
[06:56] <mrblack> it remains at 60hz
[06:56] <jramsey> ubotu, tell TheBigToe about pastebin
[06:56] <rsa_md5> Which package in ubuntu 5.10 will give me the kernel source? I found one package "Linux" but its version was <IP_ADDRESS>. Help please
[06:56] <onePhatMind> mrblack, try it through the gui
[06:56] <mrblack> I did the list box only displays 60hz even though I edited the file to only list 85
[06:56] <trym>  libxcomposite-dev: Depends: libxcomposite1 (= 1:<IP_ADDRESS>-0ubuntu2) but 1:0.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
[06:56] <mrblack> I get this msg in xrandr when trying to force it
[06:57] <onePhatMind> rsa_dm5, i thin kit might be kernel-devel
[06:57] <mwe> TheBigToe: yeah or just umask=0222
[06:57] <rsa_md5> no, it aint there. i searched using synaptic
[06:57] <mrblack> X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
[06:57] <mwe> TheBigToe: I'm not sure if defaults works with other options
[06:57] <Xappe> mrblack: have you put the refreshrates of your monitor in xorg.conf?
[06:57] <mrblack> Is the format of xrandr -s rez -r 85?
[06:58] <mwe> TheBigToe: change it to users,umask=0222
[06:58] <mrblack> Yes I did Xappe
[06:58] <Xappe> ok
[06:58] <mwe> TheBigToe: that will let users have permissions to mount it
[06:58] <mrblack> I know this monitor is verified to work on PS2 linux
[06:58] <mrblack> So I do not see why it is giving me such a problem on another Distro
[06:59] <mrblack> Sony's site doesn't link to the PS2 driver though
[06:59] <jramsey> TheBigToe, make sure after you change fstab that you umount and mount the drive; remounting is needed and umounting before you change fstab is always a good idea
[07:00] <mwe> TheBigToe: after you've changed it remount the drive, sudo mount -o remount /media/hda1
[07:00] <lrose> -
[07:00] <lrose> L
[07:01] <lrose> HOLA
[07:01] <trym> how do I downgrade libxcomposite1 ?
[07:01] <lrose> COMO TE LLAMAS
[07:01] <lrose> CERDO
[07:01] <jramsey> TheBigToe, here's a good read => http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows.php
[07:02] <tam> hi all, i''ve been having sound problems on dapper when I last rebooted my machine. it used to work all the previous times but it doesn't play any sounds. I tried loading the module (emu10k1) manually but it says FATAL: module not found although it has worked all the previous times. I am using alsa and when going through alsamixer it doesn't bring up my sound card. anyone got any ideas?
[07:02] <mwe> !ntfs
[07:02] <ubotu> it has been said that ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:02] <tag_> I was using soft raid and debian, I installed ubuntu on one of the two drives that was used in the soft raid
[07:02] <jramsey> !info dapper
[07:03] <tag_> the old debian distro kernel still shows up in my boot loader, probably by virtue of being on the second drive, I presume.  If I boot to it, can count on it not screwing up my ubuntu on disk 1?
[07:03] <mrblack> so I'm trying to use the command xrandr -s 1024x768 -r 85 but only -r 60 will work, even though I know for a fact this monitor does 85hz
[07:03] <mrblack> So again does anyone know how to brute force it into that setting?
[07:03] <tag_> I've noticed that the partitions softraid created, or that were created for softraid, show up as unknown partitions in the disk admin tool
[07:04] <mwe> tag_: if it's set up to raid it will overwrite the other drive
[07:04] <tag_> unknown types
[07:04] <tag_> I see
[07:04] <mrblack> And if I rename it from Generic Monitor in the xconf.cfg
[07:04] <mrblack> Would it then let me force the hz to 85?
[07:04] <tag_> mwe: How can I mount those mystical "unknown" partitions?
[07:04] <mwe> renmaming wont change the configuration
[07:04] <tag_> I just want to pull some data off the second drive
[07:05] <darius_> So, an RPM package overwrote/regenerated /etc/ld.so.conf - wiping out everything that was previously in there.  How could I get this file again?
[07:05] <tag_> out of the "old" raid
[07:05] <mwe> darius_: by default it's empty I believe
[07:05] <mwe> darius_: or not even present
[07:06] <HunterZ> hello
[07:06] <darius_> mwe: really?  I'm trying to launch application after this file was (re)generated and none of them will launch now.  Citing that they can't find the libraries
[07:06] <darius_> mwe: if ld.so.conf isn't being used, how do applications find the libraries?
[07:06] <mwe> darius_: what programs?
[07:06] <darius_> mwe: Openoffice/Evolution
[07:06] <mwe> darius_: they look in default places
[07:07] <mwe> darius_: sudo ldconfig see if fixes it
[07:07] <darius_> darius@babygirl:/cisco-ar$ evolution
[07:07] <darius_> evolution: /opt/CSCOar/lib/libnss3.so: version `NSS_3.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libsmime3.so)
[07:07] <mwe> darius_: sudo rm /etc/ld.so.conf && sudo ldconfig
[07:07] <darius_> k
[07:08] <mwe> darius_: is that the default evolution from ubuntu?
[07:08] <pineapple> is there a way I can log into gnome as root?
[07:08] <darius_> mwe: nope.  That's the new RPM application that was just installed
[07:08] <Venky> iam not able to install any extensions in my firfox ..iam using the latest dapper\
[07:08] <mwe> darius_: don't do that
[07:08] <mwe> darius_: it expects a differnt os
[07:08] <Venky> i cant see any extensions listed
[07:08] <jramsey> anyone know if the breezy install of open office has trouble rendering graphics in figures from imported Word 2000 docs??
[07:08] <darius_> mwe: it's the only way I can get the app to install.  The application is working
[07:08] <mwe> darius_: install the ubuntu version or compile it from source
[07:09] <Frogzoo> !tell jramsey about ooo2
[07:09] <beford> sexyLady, sexy entra en #ubuntu-es para poder ayudarte en espaol :)
[07:09] <Doat> when i try to blank a cd-rw with gnomebaker it fails with: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14281 what should i do?
[07:09] <darius_> mwe: it's a commercial application with no ubuntu package (nor source available)
[07:09] <mwe> darius_: what is it?
[07:09] <jramsey> Frogzoo, this is ok with breezy, and i don't need to upgrade to dapper??
[07:09] <mwe> darius_: why can't it use evolution from ubuntu?
[07:09] <mwe> darius_: also maybe it broke your system by overwriting ubuntu files
[07:10] <Frogzoo> jramsey: it runs on breezy & is a great improvement over 1.9
[07:10] <soundray> pineapple: there is a way, but it is totally and utterly deprecated. Use sudo or gksudo instead (e.g. Alt-F2, then enter gksudo nautilus)
[07:10] <darius_> mwe: oh.  I am using the Ubuntu Evolution.  But Evolution started failing once this ld.so.conf file was created by my Cisco RPM package
[07:10] <darius_> nwe: now that I've removed ld.so.conf and run ldconfig, Evolution is working again
[07:10] <mwe> darius_: how did you install the rpm?
[07:10] <tag_> mdadm: cannot open device /dev/sdb: Device or resource busy
[07:10] <darius_> nwe: but I imagine that the Cisco package will fail
[07:10] <tag_> crap
[07:10] <rgolden> newbie question from me: everything I minimize disappears, does NOT move to bottom panel, wha happen??
[07:10] <KaosX> carius is it cisco's vpn package?
[07:10] <darius_> nwe: with the rpm utility
[07:11] <darius_> KaosX: no, their Radius server
[07:11] <KaosX> i have their vpnc client jack my dapper install up real bad
[07:11] <KaosX> had
[07:11] <soundray> rgolden: have you removed Window List from the panel?
[07:11] <rgolden> I know I did something a few days ago, cant figure out what!
[07:11] <Frogzoo> rgolden: add a 'window list' to your toolbar - (right click - add - etc.)
[07:11] <mwe> darius_: if you insist on installing rpms in ubuntu you should use alien to convert it to a .deb so apt can verify it doesn't overwrite system files
[07:12] <KaosX> thats what i was gonna say
[07:12] <darius_> nwe: ahhh, that's good to know
[07:12] <soundray> rgolden: just right click, Add to Panel, select Window List
[07:12] <jramsey> Frogzoo, can i get synaptic to do the install?
[07:12] <mwe> tag_: can't you sudo mkdir /media/sdb && sudo mount /dev/sdb /media/sdb?
[07:12] <rgolden> thank soundray, I'll try
[07:12] <tag_> no
[07:12] <KaosX> sudo alien /path/to/rpm ... eh?
[07:12] <Frogzoo> jramsey: yup - but you need to add the repo
[07:12] <tag_> softraid creates strange partitions
[07:12] <jramsey> Frogzoo, ok i need to find it txs
[07:12] <pally> should i have a swap partition bigger/equal to the RAM size?
[07:12] <pally> to hibernate?
[07:12] <mwe> tag_: what does it say when you try mounting it?
[07:12] <darius_> mwe: ok, but that's a bit difficult.  The installer is a shell script that contain a uuencoded form of the RPM.  The shell script unencodes the RPM and installs it
[07:13] <Almenfors> hum..are most ftp servers for linux platforms consol based? seems hard to find a good one with gui
[07:13] <soundray> pally: yes.
[07:13] <mwe> darius_: cisco sucks
[07:13] <pally> soundray, o, :(
[07:13] <semboy> what is the good program or software to play Steam games
[07:13] <pally> I need a larger swap
[07:13] <darius_> nwe: indeed :/
[07:13] <tag_> unknown partition type, but I found that that ubuntu has already assembled the raids into dev /md0-3 , apparently, ubuntu is even smarter than I thought
[07:13] <tag_> and it's already pretty damn smart
[07:13] <mwe> darius_: at least that linux package does
[07:13] <semboy> what is the good program or software to play Steam games
[07:13] <KaosX> your best bet is cedega for games
[07:13] <Venky> iam not able to install ay firefox extensions
[07:13] <Archville> semboy: Cedega or Wine
[07:14] <semboy> !wine
[07:14] <semboy> where to download wine
[07:14] <Frogzoo> semboy: wine
[07:14] <rgolden> that fixed it, thanks!!!!
[07:14] <darius_> nwe: it looks like Cisco keep all of their files in their directory .. so no system files (besides ld.so.conf) are altererd
[07:14] <Frogzoo> !tell semboy about wine
[07:14] <mwe> tag_: I don't think you can mount a raid with only one of the drives in the array
[07:14] <tag_> mwe: I just did
[07:14] <mwe> tag_: really? good
[07:14] <tag_> yeah
[07:14] <mwe> tag_: how?
[07:15] <pally> what does 'recovery mode' do in Ubuntu grub?
[07:15] <mwe> darius_: are you sure?
[07:15] <tag_> ubuntu saw the second drive had a softraid configuration, it assembled the single drive into raid accessors on md*.  I checked dmesg, it only assembled the raid out of the single drive (meaning, well, that it wasn't *really* a raid)
[07:15] <semboy> yellow i have never download program on linux -so i need help
[07:15] <tag_> so I mounted /dev/md0
[07:15] <Venky> does anyone know how to fix firefox extesion issues
[07:15] <jramsey> Frogzoo, what line to i need in sources.list? i have deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/  but not sure what shoujld follow
[07:15] <tag_> and boom, there is what I wanted
[07:15] <mwe> darius_: you can't list the contents of the installed package
[07:15] <tag_> in fact
[07:16] <tag_> now that I know that, I didn't have to back up anything it seems
[07:16] <tag_> :-)
[07:16] <KaosX> semboy: from a terminal
[07:16] <KaosX> sudo apt-get update
[07:16] <mwe> tag_: cool
[07:16] <tag_> cool is right
[07:16] <KaosX> sudo apt-get install wine
[07:16] <KaosX> or you can do it from synaptic
[07:16] <scifi> whats the make directory command ?
[07:16] <KaosX> whatever youre more comfortable with
[07:16] <KaosX> mkdir
[07:17] <tag_> I suggest crossover office over wine
[07:17] <mwe> Venky: you need to be more specific
[07:17] <soundray> scifi: mkdir. Also read this:
[07:17] <_antix> crossover office is wine
[07:17] <tag_> it's a nicer package.
[07:17] <darius_> nwe: it "appears" that way anyways.  I can muck up the script to generate the rpm for me.  Can 'rpm' show me the install paths?
[07:17] <scifi> ty
[07:17] <soundray> !tell scifi about cli
[07:17] <tag_> _antix: I mean, over the ubuntu/debian wine distribution
[07:17] <Venky> can anyone tell me how to get extensions working in firefox...it seems oe r getting installed
[07:17] <mwe> darius_: yes
[07:17] <Frogzoo> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingWineFromSource
[07:17] <_antix> Venky: what version of firefox do you have?
[07:17] <gilster> hello i need help with suspend mode and kshutdown>?
[07:17] <soundray> Venky: via the menu, Tools-Extensions-Get More Extensions
[07:18] <mwe> darius_: I don't remember how. rpm -q or sth. refer to 'man rpm' please
[07:18] <gilster> how do i set automatic timer for suspend mode/?
[07:18] <Venky> ya i cant press ay of those buttos
[07:18] <Venky> all of them r greyed out
[07:18] <KaosX> -q just checks if an rpm is installed
[07:18] <jstraw> did anyone see what I said before getting rudely disconnected?
[07:18] <soundray> Venky: what buttons?
[07:18] <trym> what could a wrongly set freq on a lcd monitor the xconf result in ?
[07:18] <mwe> gilster: breezy?
[07:18] <KaosX> i havnt used a RHL based distro in a while though
[07:19] <Frogzoo> trym: on more recent monitors, it will just refuse to accept the signal
[07:19] <soundray> trym: a black screen, or an error message on the screen's OSD
[07:19] <trym> Frogzoo: when big movements are done, and also when Im viewing video.. there can be some flickering..
[07:20] <auTONYmous> I need help with upower...any takers?
[07:20] <Archville> How can i restore the original firefox icons ?
[07:20] <trym> because X starts just the same with a horizsync of 30-83 as ith 24-80
[07:20] <TuxRox> Anyone here using Dapper?
[07:20] <trym> does it make a difference?
[07:20] <auTONYmous> Archville: Check the wiki
[07:20] <mikarta>  /msg nickserv link mikarta morgen
[07:20] <soundray> TuxRox: yes, but join
[07:20] <jstraw> TuxRox: check topic
[07:20] <Mika_i_> hmm
[07:20] <soundray> #ubuntu+1 to discuss
[07:21] <darius_> nwe: yeah - Cisco isn't installing any files outside of its application directory accoding to rpm -q --list CSCOar-3.5.5-1119510131
[07:21] <Archville> auTONYmous, i checked it, but when i run the script, the links are broken for wget.
[07:21] <yoyo_> have any one here successfully install the ubuntu from USB-disk , I wanna copy the new ISO into USB-disk instead of brun a cd to try dapper , a rqpid changing version for now
[07:21] <scifi> ok i did cd /usr/local but now i want to open /usr/local/lib, i know theres a quick way of getting to the "lib" folder without typing the whole cd /usr/local/lib command ?
[07:21] <auTONYmous> Archville: You're right...I googled it and found another site with working links...
[07:21] <yoyo_> or give me some hint?
[07:21] <Archville> auTONYmous,  Do you still have the links ?
[07:22] <auTONYmous> anybody: I installed upower, had it working, compiled a new kernel, it broke. Any ideas?
[07:22] <soundray> yoyo, why not use a CD-RW?
[07:22] <ferronica> Is is necessary to install AUTOMATIX????
[07:22] <soundray> ferronica: absolutely not
[07:22] <_antix> ferronica: it's necessary not to
[07:22] <soundray> !automatix
[07:22] <ubotu> I heard automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, such as !easyubuntu.
[07:22] <FliesLikeABrick> no ferronica  that is an optional program
[07:22] <Venky> can someone suggest a way to completely uninstall firefox...i mean clean uninstall
[07:22] <cheziyi> ubotu, that sounds so familiar
[07:22] <ubotu> cheziyi: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:22] <sapote> !easyubuntu
[07:22] <ubotu> somebody said easyubuntu was an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/.
[07:22] <yoyo_> cause i dont wanna burn a cd and then watse a cd-rw
[07:22] <Venky> w/o a trace
[07:23] <ferronica> Just to run windows application???????????
[07:23] <FliesLikeABrick> Venky apt-get remove --purge firefox ?
[07:23] <Archville> And another one...  Is it possible to change a determined color (for example the window titlebar color) in a Gnome theme ?
[07:23] <FliesLikeABrick> Venky also delete .mozilla in your home folder(s)
[07:23] <cheziyi> ubotu: what?
[07:23] <ubotu> What what, cheziyi?
[07:23] <soundray> Venky: 'sudo apt-get --purge remove mozilla-firefox ; rm -rf ~/.firefox ~/.mozilla-firefox'
[07:23] <Venky> ty
[07:23] <FliesLikeABrick> yeah Venky  more accurate is what soundray said
[07:23] <ferronica> i prefer to use only ubuntu application...........
[07:23] <soundray> Venky: if you remove just the config dirs in your $HOME, it might fix it
[07:23] <cheziyi> oh ubotu, i was saying what you said about automatix sounds very familiar
[07:24] <gilster> mwe: no i am on dapper
[07:24] <yoyo_>  may be after the stable od dapper i will burn one ,and also do not satisfied by the update-script , it keeps many many things unchanged
[07:24] <ferronica> soundray: i hav just installed RP-PPPOE
[07:24] <borgista>  I think the LiveCD install may have killed my /home directory...any way to retrieve lost files?
[07:24] <soundray> !tell cheziyi about you
[07:24] <kmilo> HI
[07:24] <ferronica> soundray: But where is it located???
[07:24] <FliesLikeABrick> borgista there is no easy way, if it is possible at all
[07:24] <borgista> Any way to retrieve lost files when LiveCD Install formatted the wrong partition.
[07:24] <gilster> i am using dapper and trying to get auto suspend mode anyone>L>?
[07:25] <borgista> FliesLikeABrick: any help would be appreciated.
[07:25] <soundray> ferronica: find out with 'dpkg -L packagename'. Look for files in bin directories, they are commands usually.
[07:25] <borgista> FliesLikeABrick: I am desperate
[07:25] <soundray> borgista: what filesystem was on there before?
[07:25] <jramsey> help will getting repo line in sources.list; deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2
[07:25] <jramsey>  is what i put in for the oo2 update but synaptic complains; ubotu says "(add one of the 'deb' lines to sources.list and update+upgrade)" what should the line be?
[07:25] <FliesLikeABrick> borgista ext3 ?
[07:25] <borgista> soundray: ext3
[07:25] <borgista> yes
[07:26] <kmilo> Where Can I find a list of the canonical employees?
[07:26] <FliesLikeABrick> I don't know much about ext3 filesystem recover except the fact that it is possible
[07:26] <soundray> borgista: that's pretty hopeless, sorry.
[07:26] <mwe> gilster: kpowersave can hibernate at a preset battery level at least. I'm not sure about timer options
[07:26] <borgista> soundray: is there a FS that works better for file recovery?
[07:26] <soundray> borgista: ext2
[07:26] <Venky> says package mozilla firefox not installed hece not removed
[07:26] <borgista> ah!
[07:27] <FliesLikeABrick> borgista  he is not saying that ext2 will help you recover your lost data
[07:27] <gilster> mwe: yes, i dont want to hibernate...i want true suspend on a sepcific time
[07:27] <borgista> FliesLikeABrick: I know... i just know what to use for next time.
[07:27] <ferronica> soundray: i hav just installed it using this website--->http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu#How_to_install_Broadband_ADSL.2FPPPoE_Client_.28RP-PPPoE.29
[07:27] <borgista> FliesLikeABrick: I can't believe I lost all my files.
[07:27] <soundray> borgista: no, you are drawing the wrong conclusion.
[07:27] <FliesLikeABrick> soundray what makes ext2 easier to be recovered than ext3 ?
[07:27] <yoyo_> kmilo: I have seen this from ubuntu.frige
[07:27] <arrick> anybody ever had a pc that takes like 20 minutes to load ubuntu server, and 7hours to load win2003server?
[07:27] <arrick> hello all
[07:27] <FliesLikeABrick> arrick it sounds like you may have a failed or failing hard drive
[07:28] <auTONYmous> exit
[07:28] <arrick> FliesLikeABrick, ive went through 9 known good drives
[07:28] <Tux-Rox> OK, so every time I try to watch any video file in Dapper regardless of program used (totem, xine, vlc, etc) the program just crashes before a video can be played. Anyone seen this and have a quick fix?
[07:28] <mwe> gilster: not after a specific amount of time, at a specific time of the day?
[07:28] <yoyo_> arrick , 7hours for load win2003?
[07:28] <arrick> yeah
[07:28] <tipiak22> bonjour :-)
[07:28] <soundray> FliesLikeABrick: there are two packages, e2undel and recover, which are suitable for restoring files from botched ext2 systems. They don't work on ext3.
[07:28] <FliesLikeABrick> Tux-Rox  do you have codecs installed ?
[07:28] <Venky> so the command didnt uninstall firefox
[07:28] <arrick> 500mhz, with 3 sticks of 128 ram
[07:28] <FliesLikeABrick> ah soundray gotcha
[07:28] <Tux-Rox> FliesLikeABrick, yes I do, in /usr/lib/win32
[07:28] <gilster> mwe: yes
[07:29] <Tux-Rox> Works fine under Breezy on a different system.
[07:29] <arrick> FliesLikeABrick, I used checkit to burn in the drives to make sure they were good as well
[07:29] <gilster> i went to set it when i go to the office...to automatically go on suspend mode after X amount of time
[07:29] <gilster> at my discretion
[07:29] <yoyo_> have any one install the ubuntu from usb-disk
[07:29] <soundray> Venky: error messages?
[07:29] <Tux-Rox> FliesLikeABrick, even Vorbis files have the same reaction.
[07:29] <mwe> gilster: hmm. I'm not sure how to do that. you can power off the system at specific time
[07:30] <Tux-Rox> Only Real Player works.
[07:30] <kmilo> yoyo_, the fridge?
[07:30] <soundray> yoyo_: what you are trying is difficult. You may find some hints about running isos from a hard disk/ USB drive on Knoppix websites.
[07:30] <gilster> yes
[07:30] <FliesLikeABrick> Tux-Rox  are you using breezy or dapper?
[07:31] <FliesLikeABrick> er Tux-Rox for help with dapper join #ubuntu+1
[07:31] <jstraw> I'm having an issue with a 5.10 install on a sata drive
[07:31] <jstraw> the install worked fine but when I went to boot the first time it failed to find inittab
[07:31] <Venky> soundray i cant uninstall it
[07:31] <jstraw> the error is
[07:31] <yoyo_> soundray, thanks i know it ,but i wanna have a try
[07:31] <jstraw> [4294668.642000]  ata2: disabling port
[07:31] <jstraw>  * No inittab file found
[07:31] <mwe> gilster: sudo shutdown -h 01:30 will shutdown the system at 1:30 am. I'm not sure how to suspend at a specific time
[07:31] <soundray> ferronica: try 'gksudo /opt/rp-pppoe-3.6/go-gui'
[07:31] <yoyo_> fridge , yes i have found once ,
[07:31] <FliesLikeABrick> Tux-Rox  since dapper is in beta, bugs are expected.  Check with the people in #ubuntu+1 and if it is not a known problem, check if the bug exists.  if it doesn't then report the bug
[07:32] <soundray> Venky: error messages?
[07:32] <gilster> yes i am familiar with that command line
[07:32] <Venky> it says mozilla firefox is not installed hence not removed
[07:32] <jstraw> try at with software suspend
[07:32] <Venky> but i can open the browser
[07:32] <jstraw> (at is like cron, but runs once)
[07:32] <gilster> i want the exact thing for suspend
[07:32] <mwe> gilster: I think you have to write a script
[07:33] <jstraw> gilster: what do you run to suspend
[07:33] <soundray> gilster: in dapper, you can configure automatic suspend after inactivity via the gnome-power-manager. Breezy isn't quite there yet.
[07:33] <chamo1> plop
[07:33] <mwe> gilster: it could calculate the number of seconds until the specified time, then sleep for that many seconds then suspend
[07:33] <gilster> ok
[07:34] <jstraw> mwe: there's already a daemon built for this type of stuff
[07:34] <Venky> soundray any ideas?
[07:34] <mwe> jstraw: oh yeah. at
[07:34] <jstraw> *points at the at command*
[07:34] <gilster> i use klaptop to place manually under suspend....
[07:34] <mwe> gilster: use
[07:34] <jstraw> gilster: do you know what klaptop calls to suspend?
[07:34] <soundray> gilster, have a look at http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/faq.html#watch
[07:34] <mwe> gilster: at
[07:34] <gilster> i just wanted this to be after a specified period of inactivity
[07:35] <mwe> gilster: the at command will work
[07:35] <gilster> jstraw: not sure....
[07:35] <jstraw> anyways... can anyone help with my problem above?
[07:35] <soundray> Venky: have you installed firefox through apt?
[07:35] <gilster> but it works perfectly
[07:35] <shelly> quick interjection: I can't seem to download (get fail to fetch errors) from the .US dapper repositories all of a sudden. Is anyone else having trouble connecting to download?
[07:35] <Venky> i mean it was pre installed
[07:35] <Venky> but i can see it in synaptics
[07:36] <soundray> Venky: remove it via synaptic then.
[07:36] <Venky> i removed it from there and reinstalled it...but all my setting were there..it didnt look fresh
[07:36] <|mp|> just installed ubuntu dapper daily build on a Toshiba 4060XCDT - all is well it seems, except that the screen is not "fully used" - there is only an image in the middle of the screen - what to do?
[07:36] <Venky> well that didnt help coz it still doesnt let me install extensions
[07:37] <soundray> Venky: you have to remove the config directories in your $HOME while it is not running. Then you have to select "totally remove" in synaptic or whatever it is called.
[07:37] <Venky> ok how do i remove config files
[07:37] <mwe> gilster: you can configure kpowersave which is much more powerful to use whatever you want to suspend. it also supports timeouts
[07:37] <jramsey> trying to update to OO2.0; following error in synaptic: http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/dists/breezy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found ... sources.list line is: deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2 breezy main
[07:37] <soundray> Venky: you remove all directories in your $HOME that have firefox in the name.
[07:37] <arrick> |mp|, go to ubuntu+1 for dapper support please
[07:37] <jramsey> any ideas?
[07:38] <alleyoopster> |mp|: you could try to reconfigure x by running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[07:38] <Venky> how to go to $home directory
[07:38] <Venky> i have /home
[07:38] <soundray> !info openoffice.org2

[07:39] <Hajuu> I have a program running.. it isnt responding to killall psybnc, nor kill pid
[07:39] <Hajuu> how can I kill it?
[07:39] <FliesLikeABrick> Hajuu  psybnc requires the -9 signal
[07:39] <FliesLikeABrick> killall -9 psybnc
[07:39] <yoyo_> venky, cd ~
[07:39] <soundray> jramsey: remove the people.ubuntu.com line from your sources.list and install OOo2 from Ubuntu proper.
[07:39] <Dkt1> " . So is it installed somewhere else?
[07:39] <jramsey> soundray, i dont know what u mean by "ubuntu proper" sry
[07:39] <yoyo_> also $HOME means the home of the user
[07:39] <Dkt1> I did just install WoW on Ubuntu. Now I want to start it, how to do? I have tried "wine WoW.exe -opengl" but I do get: "wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\load.exe": Module not found
[07:40] <Hajuu> awsome
[07:40] <Hajuu> thanks FliesLikeABrick
[07:40] <soundray> jramsey: the default package source.
[07:40] <soundray> jramsey: sometimes referred to as 'main'
[07:40] <yoyo_> venky, $HOME is the environment variable point to the current user 's home directory
[07:41] <Venky> ok can u tell me the terminal command..i see only desktop and example dir
[07:41] <mheath> Venky: cd $home   or just    cd ~
[07:41] <Venky> ya i did it
[07:41] <mheath> Sorry, $HOME
[07:42] <jramsey> soundray, the only openoffice verison i have in synaptic is 1.9 and i want 2.0; does that mean the ubuntu 2.0 pkg isn't on the oo site?
[07:42] <yoyo_> Venky, can you give me the guide you currently use ?
[07:42] <Venky> ?
[07:42] <soundray> Venky: 'rm -rf $HOME/.firefox* $HOME/.mozilla*'

[07:44] <tag> that sucks
[07:44] <Tux-Rox> FliesLikeABrick, sorry, I am at work and had to rack a server right quick :-)  Thanks, I'll check it out!
[07:44] <tag> how do I fix this? :-)
[07:44] <soundray> jramsey: please try this: edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and replace the "people"-line with "deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/ ./"
[07:45] <tag> actually that question should go to dapper
[07:45] <soundray> jramsey: save, run 'sudo apt-get update', and try installing OOo again.
[07:45] <FliesLikeABrick> tag if you're running dapper, please ask that in #ubuntu+1.  the way that SMP systems are handled in dapper is different than in breezy
[07:45] <mwe> tag: install an smp kernel, probably
[07:46] <FliesLikeABrick> mwe  dapper does not have SMP kernels, SMP support is built into 686 kernels in dapper
[07:46] <mwe> FliesLikeABrick: I see
[07:46] <jramsey> soundray, i just found the same instructions at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-79469.html; am trying now ... will advise ty
[07:46] <lerch> Hi, where should I direct a question concerning wine?
[07:46] <FliesLikeABrick> tag  if you're running a 686 system, I'm guessing you're running on a 386 kernel now.  Upgrade to a 686 kernel and that problem should go away
[07:46] <feNNec> help on fwbuilder
[07:47] <soundray> lerch: try here, if you run wine on ubuntu.
[07:47] <alleyoopster> lerch : depends if it is red or white
[07:47] <lerch> soundray: I do, ok thanks, I'll give it a go
[07:47] <redloff_> hi
[07:47] <jramsey> soundray, apt-get update is hung at "99% [Waiting for headers]
[07:47] <FliesLikeABrick> jramsey  archive.us.ubuntu.com is acting weird right now
[07:47] <jramsey> nevermind ... it finished
[07:48] <redloff_> should breezy badger have msttcorefonts package available after uncomenting all repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[07:48] <crimsun> yes
[07:48] <soundray> jramsey: I can tell you're the impatient kind ;)
[07:48] <redloff_> cause I don't have this package
[07:48] <crimsun> !info msttcorefonts

[07:48] <lerch> I'm trying to run warcraft III + expansion and quite surprisingly it installs flawlessly ( I think...)... But when I try to run the game It asks for the CD
[07:48] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch  did you configure your CD rom drives with winecfg ?
[07:48] <redloff_> crimsun, what could be the reason of not finding that package?
[07:48] <jramsey> soundray, :) i have been at this for over an hour ... i am trying hard to be patient
[07:49] <x624> hey
[07:49] <mwe> redloff_: not enabling multiverse?
[07:49] <crimsun> redloff_: breezy/multiverse isn't enabled?
[07:49] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: I did run winecfg, and I guess it works, since it could install from it
[07:49] <mikomiko> hello, why cant i play video with music in it, it is only displaying the pictures but no sound
[07:49] <x624> how do you unblok a contact by gaim
[07:49] <soundray> jramsey: an hour is nothing if you're troubleshooting computer problems ;)
[07:49] <redloff_> crimsun, yes it is
[07:49] <mikomiko> I am using totem
[07:49] <redloff_> I've only commented out cdrom
[07:50] <mwe> redloff_: did you sudo apt-get update afterwards?
[07:50] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch how did you start the installer?
[07:50] <redloff_> mwe, yes I did
[07:50] <pawsilver> hi there
[07:50] <x624> For mp3 you must juse XMMS
[07:50] <jramsey> soundray, yanno what's even better? spending 2 hrs trying to get dvdrip working on a cd rw drive ... hehehe
[07:50] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: I ran "wine install.exe" from a terminal
[07:50] <redloff_> no msttcorefonts.. there are pending updates though
[07:50] <pawsilver> can some-one help me
[07:50] <x624> who has ubuntu 6.06
[07:50] <mwe> redloff_: can you put your /etc/apt/sources.list at paste.ubuntu-nl.org please?
[07:51] <uBuNtUn00b> hi, i have a noob question(soory): I downloaded emacs a .gz file, extracted it. Logged to root, to the source folder and typed ./configure and got the error: configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
[07:51] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch that doesn't mean that your CD rom drives are configured properly since when you do that, all that matters is that the files install.exe need are in that same relative path
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> uBuNtUn00b,  why are you bothering with the source at all?
[07:51] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch  run winecfg and make sure that your cd rom drive(s) appear in the list of available drives/devices
[07:51] <jramsey> uBuNtUn00b, you have build-essential installed?
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> !info emacs
[07:51] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: I'll do that right away..hang on
[07:51] <uBuNtUn00b> i have no idea what build essential is, where can i get it?
[07:51] <soundray> uBuNtUn00b: if you are a newbie, do yourself a favor and don't try to compile emacs as the first action.
[07:52] <webwolf_27> Hey can somebody please tell me how to fix the error "*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x081781d8 ***
[07:52] <webwolf_27> Unable to read printer database." or is this a bug in Dapper that needs to be reported
[07:52] <uBuNtUn00b> well compiling stuff and installing them should be one of the first things a noob learns?
[07:52] <jramsey> Dr_Willis, has a more fundamental question. there is a pkg for emacs and u dont need source but if u insist sudo apt-get install build-essential
[07:52] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell webwolf_27  about paste
[07:52] <feNNec> FliesLikeABrick: how could I know that my process carry i686 kernel ?
