[16:05] <reflous> smallfoot-, I'm looking for a program to actually connect to the internet wirelessly (detect hosts & connect to them) the built-in ubuntu thing doesn't seem very robust
[16:06] <mordof> ah, nevermind i found it
[16:06] <ianliu_88> when I minimize a pidgin conversation, new messages doesnt "emphasize" that window, on the bottom bar... Anyone know why?
[16:06] <Sir_Fawnpug> Armada, I would advise that you backup the partition, just in case
[16:06] <smallfoot-> reflous, sorry i dont know, i dont have wireless
[16:06] <Sir_Fawnpug> Armada, I've shot myself in the foot quite a few times by assuming there was nothing important on a partition
[16:06] <mDemocritus> mordof: dmesg | grep -i cpu
[16:06] <Armada> Sir_Fawnpug: How? It's no longer readable
[16:06] <mDemocritus> mordof: or dmesg | grep -i proc
[16:06] <babolat> ianliu_88: Tools > Preferences
[16:06] <Jack_Sparrow> mordof /proc/cpuinfo 		#should show everything about your cpu(s) including the speeds
[16:06] <mDemocritus> mordof: i'm not sure if there's a command..
[16:06] <kwtm> reflous: knetworkmanager?
[16:07] <mDemocritus> mordof: ah, good call Jack_Sparrow :D
[16:07] <Sir_Fawnpug> Armada, you could do dd if=/dev/(partition) of=backup
[16:07] <crackaddict> any one know how to change it so my desktop manager is GDM
[16:07] <kwtm> reflous: (That's for Kubuntu; not sure what the equivalent is in Plain Ubuntu --but you can still install knetworkmanager in Plain Ubuntu)
[16:07] <Sir_Fawnpug> Armada, that will do a raw dump of the data on the partition
[16:07] <smallfoot-> Armada, becareful when using 'dd'
[16:07] <pablo> this is my problem  http://paste.ubuntu.com/16192/
[16:07] <mDemocritus> soshka: that's quite a bit of packet loss....
[16:07] <babolat> crackaddict:  how to change it --> what is *IT* ?
[16:08] <mordof> mDemocritus, Jack_Sparrow: /proc/cpuinfo was what i was looking for thank you.   then using cat to dispaly it.  ^^
[16:08] <Jack_Sparrow> mordof Glad to hear it
[16:08] <crackaddict> errmmm i installed kubuntu kde4 desktop and now gdm isnt working
[16:08] <mDemocritus> mordof dmesg shows most of that too.... but it's a bit harder to read :D
[16:08] <crackaddict> i want to use gdm and i would like to know how
[16:08] <smallfoot-> pablo, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade does not work?
[16:08] <noobuntu> chev_cheliot: to find out which rel is currently running: lsb_release -a
[16:08] <soshka> mDemocritu : if only i knew what packet loss is?
[16:09] <mDemocritus> soshka: it means most of the info your computer is sending out to the internet is getting lost along the way
[16:09] <mDemocritus> soshka: basically
[16:09] <pablo> smallfoot, isnt the same to use the upgrade manager?
[16:09] <mDemocritus> soshka: is that computer only running ubuntu?
[16:09] <fanfannothing> samba这个东西怎么用啊，

[16:09] <fanfannothing>  请高手帮一下忙啊，感谢
[16:09] <Armada> Sir_Fawnpug: Well there is only one file I could possibly want to keep, which is mpdata containing my CoD4 rank

[16:11] <mDemocritus> soshka: could be something with your network card, with ubuntu.... but most likely something wrong on your internet provider's end... try powercycling the modem
[16:11] <Sir_Fawnpug> Armada, alright, just keeping an eye out, because I've lost important data like that before
[16:11] <DIL> how to use chroot
[16:11] <mDemocritus> soshka: and then reboot the computer
[16:12] <cognatus> anybody familiar with v4l, video for linux?
[16:12] <Armada> Sir_Fawnpug: Me too, that's why I bought that 1TB drive ;)
[16:12] <soshka> mDemocritu : whats powercycling?
[16:12] <soshka> mDemocritu: i know i am a lost cause

[16:12] <bazhang> soshka, reset (off then on)
[16:12] <smallfoot-> soshka, powercycle is power off computer, then power it on again
[16:12] <mDemocritus> soshka: hah no biggie.... i work tech support, you're doing much better than some of the people
[16:12] <kwtm> reflous: I find that it works for me. It's designed for laptops moving from one wireless environment to another.  If you are disconnected, it immediately starts looking for other available connections.
[16:12] <Sir_Fawnpug> Armada, I've been in a situation where I've had to manually fetch the data that was accidentally deleted from a coworker's ext3 partition; it's not pretty.
[16:12] <mDemocritus> soshka: unplug the modem, wait 5-10 seconds, plug it back in
[16:13] <reflous> kwtm, ah great, sounds good I'll check it out, thanks
[16:13] <DIL> babolat: ty but page error
[16:13] <kwtm> reflous: The real program is "Networkmanager", but it can be hard to use, so
[16:13] <mDemocritus> soshka: it'll disconnect you from the net, but just log back onto freenode when you computer's restarted
[16:13] <soshka> cool ty
[16:13] <soshka> i'll be back
[16:13] <kwtm> reflous: they wrote Knetworkmanager to make it easier to use.  One caveat is that it
[16:13] <xxSimxx> where can i find the Xubuntu Dvd Iso
[16:13] <kwtm> reflous: has trouble with hidden networks; works better if the network is broadcasting its SSID (but ok to have encryption with keys)

[16:16] <julio> Hi, i want to install Tapioca Or Jabbin in my ubuntu Gutsy
[16:16] <trident523> julio: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tapioca
[16:16] <trident523> julio: Seems out of date.
[16:16] <noobuntu> chev_cheliot: it looks like this time upgrade will go through. i think the best thing is to reboot before going to upgrade the machine, in order to clear memory from eventual garbage :)))
[16:16] <julio> trident523 It doesn't tell how to install in the Gutsy
[16:17] <etronik> should /home be setup inside a LVM or is that too risky ?
[16:17] <babolat> julio: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+source/tapioca-qt/0.14.1-0ubuntu2/+files/tapioca-qt_0.14.1.orig.tar.gz
[16:17] <pablo> smallfoot, i have not install anything different than all the upgrades for the 7.10 version and amsn
[16:17] <trident523> julio: As I said, seems out of date.
[16:17] <babolat> i think it's in the repos, julio.. try sudo apt-get install tapioca
[16:17] <julio> I tried, It doesn't work.
[16:18] <julio> Not even jabbin
[16:18] <babolat> julio: then that package might do it for you
[16:18] <trident523> julio: Then you'll have to compile it, I guess.
[16:18] <noobuntu> i'm now in console as root. how to switch back to regular user?
[16:18] <Infinito_> julio, try 'aptitude search tapioca'
[16:18] <ratpoison> hello! I have an old IBM laptop whose screen is out of order. If I hook it up to a display through the VGA adapter, will it work?
[16:18] <trident523> noobuntu: 'exit'
[16:18] <Sir_Fawnpug> noobuntu, exit.
[16:18] <noobuntu> thx
[16:18] <smallfoot-> ratpoison, yes maybe, try
[16:18] <bazhang> ratpoison, should do
[16:18] <Sir_Fawnpug> ratpoison, it's worth a try.
[16:18] <noobuntu> no special commands needed?
[16:19] <Sir_Fawnpug> noobuntu, nope, "exit" should be enough
[16:19] <trident523> noobuntu: nope, if you use su or sudo -s then exit takes you down one level.
[16:19] <noobuntu> it works with exit, thx people
[16:19] <alexbobp> If I type "java -version", I see that it's OpenJDK.  But I also have Sun Java installed.  How can I make the command default to Sun Java?
[16:19] <cognatus> i wish "sudo exit" woudl work
[16:19] <julio> Infinito, there are archives
[16:19] <trident523> cognatus: Why?
[16:20] <julio> babolat, How can i use this package you sent me?
[16:20] <mDemocritus> soshka: by the way, don't pm without asking in the channel first, it's considered rude by some people
[16:20] <cognatus> just to see what would happen, i guess
[16:20] <trident523> cognatus: Wouldn't you allready be root then, trying to exit a terminal as root?
[16:20] <alexbobp> cognatus: when would "sudo exit" ever be more useful than "exit"?
[16:20] <soshka> Its me
[16:20] <ImDude> can anyone give me a simple answer how to play music over smb:// directory using any player so far nothing work with amarok , VLC etc
[16:20] <soshka> its the same problem
[16:20] <cognatus> cause it would like... REALLY exit
[16:20] <cognatus> :P i dunno
[16:20] <ratpoison> second question: can mythTV interoperate with MacOSX? I'm thinking of making it a MythTV front/back end with the ability to send video through the WiFi. The other computers are Macs. Does MythTV interpoerate with Mac OSX?
[16:20] <alexbobp> cognatus: btw, the reason it doesn't work is because "sudo" creates it's own shell to execute the command in.  But exit always works!
[16:20] <babolat> julio: here -->http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[16:21] <trident523> ImDude: Why don't you browse to the directory? Or, even better... use DAAP.
[16:21] <noobuntu> i want also to now that with smb:// and playing music
[16:21] <mDemocritus> soshka: i would try it with another computer, unless your ISP will support linux, which i doubt
[16:21] <ottoshmidt> installed tuxguitar but can't launch it :(((
[16:21] <julio> Hum, thank you babolat. I'll try.
[16:21] <ottoshmidt> /usr/bin/tuxguitar: 21: /usr/local/opt/java/jre/bin/java: not found
 well I did mont the directory I can browser fine I can even add songs to amarok but it won't play
[16:21] <ImDude> what is DAAP
[16:22] <cognatus> www.acronymfinder.org
[16:22] <babolat> Direct Audio Access Protocol, ImDude
[16:22] <trident523> noobuntu, ImDude: DAAP is way more supported. It's what iTunes uses in it's sharing. There's a project called Tangerine that is a server for DAAP. I'll go look quickly.
[16:22] <cognatus> ** www.acronymfinder.com
[16:22] <nomasteryoda> there's all so ...MPD
 oh yeah that's what I am talking
[16:23] <ImDude> :)
[16:23] <bazhang> cognatus, what is that
[16:23] <nomasteryoda> as well as gnumpd
[16:23] <DIL> babolat: you da man - thank you so much googled last night and could not find such a simple solution
[16:23] <trident523> ImDude, noobuntu: Well, atleast in rhythmbox, it's an enable-able plugin. In amarok, not so much.
[16:23] <babolat> ay't DIL
[16:23] <nomasteryoda> both work well and allow music streaming
[16:23] <cognatus> it's a dictionary of acronyms
[16:24] <thermoplyae> Slart: just so you know, removing the applet seems to keep the computer from automatically joining wireless networks, though it still automatically detects and joins wired ones
[16:24] <bazhang> cognatus, dont spam the channel
[16:24] <pablo> smallfoot, are you still there?? would it help if i give you my upgrade logs?
[16:24] <thermoplyae> it's possible that the keys for the wireless networks are being stored in a gnome keyring?  i dunno
[16:24] <nomasteryoda> ottoshmidt, you have java installed?
[16:24] <thermoplyae> anyway.  now you know.  and thanks again
[16:24] <cognatus> when was i spamming bazhang
[16:25] <nomasteryoda> ottoshmidt, command would be... "whereis java" to find it
[16:25] <ratpoison> or which java
[16:25] <ottoshmidt> ok
[16:25] <bazhang> cognatus, take unrelated links to support elsewhere; next time wont be a warning
[16:25] <nomasteryoda> ya
[16:25] <babolat> bazhang: someone asked what DAAP meant.. he just gave a valid external resource
[16:25] <trident523> ImDude, noobuntu: I forgot how I got amarok to do that kind of sharing, but rhythmbox has a plugin called "DAAP music sharing." Enable that, and if the other computer is serving, it should show up shortly.
[16:25] <ottoshmidt> nomasteryoda, /usr/bin/tuxguitar: 21: /usr/local/opt/java/jre/bin/java: not found
[16:26] <ottoshmidt> sorry
[16:26] <ottoshmidt> /usr/bin/java /usr/lib/java /usr/share/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz
[16:26] <ottoshmidt> is it ok
[16:26] <ottoshmidt> ?
[16:26] <nomasteryoda> ah... seems tuxguitar wants java in that folder
[16:26] <Infinito_> ottoshmidt,  try 'sudo updatedb' and try locating again
[16:26] <ratpoison> ottoshmidt, use paste.ubuntu.com for large pastes
[16:26] <cognatus> right. so when someone asks a "google it" question and someone replies "google.com", that's not spamming
[16:26] <Infinito_> oh
[16:26] <Infinito_> neverming seems you're done
[16:26] <noobuntu> trident523: thx, i found it. only now i must somehow force linux to see my windows network shares :D
[16:26] <Infinito_> *nevermind
[16:27] <ImDude> there is one a little annoying thing that I can't find the settings for it since I am here for a quick stop I may s well as for it: when I have multiple windows open the windows behind the main windows becomes transparent a little, how can I remove that transparency /opacity ??
[16:27] <trident523> noobuntu: Lucky me, I don't have any of those. :P
[16:27] <ottoshmidt> ratpoison, in web browser?
[16:27] <mDemocritus> ImDude: are you using compiz?
[16:27] <cognatus> ImDude, do you have compiz or the basic WM?
[16:27] <ratpoison> ottoshmidt, yes
[16:28] <noobuntu> trident523: i must have it, but i'm on the way to get rid of it :D
 yes
 compiz
[16:28] <cognatus> ImDude, press alt+f2 type 'ccsm'
[16:28] <mDemocritus> ImDude: should be in the compiz settings.... i think there's a transparency option
[16:28] <ratpoison> ottoshmidt, then, paste on the box, press send, and paste the address here
[16:28] <simi> hi ,i have problems with java in firefox 3 in hardy 32 bit, i habe  IcedTea, is this implementation incomplete for applets ? i need sun java or how can i fix this?
[16:28] <trident523> noobuntu: sshd is fast for transfering stuff between computers, and "just works." But only on *nx machines.
[16:28] <mohbana> how do i play a dvd which i just mounted?
[16:28] <mohbana> it was an .iso before
[16:28] <slappy> Does users-admin (in ubuntu/gnome) uses /etc/adduser.conf ? (it does'nt look like that for me!) Is there a way to change the default value of users-admin?
[16:28] <cognatus> ImDude, you'll have to fiddle a bit as tehre are many different transparency settings
[16:29] <ottoshmidt> ratpoison, ok
 I think I looked there but since I am a blind man chances are I missed
[16:29] <Armada> I'm going to reinstall Windows but that will overwrite my current mbr (GRUB) what is the best way to reinstall it once windows is installed
[16:29] <noobuntu> ImDude: go to system->preferences->advanced desktop eff sett
[16:29] <mohkohn> OK I will have another try. I have internet coming in from eth0. I want to share it though wlan0.
[16:29] <MolePrince> Armada: Back it up first with dd ;)
[16:29] <mDemocritus> ImDude: well i know it's a setting in there... i'm just not sure where... try general settings
[16:29] <ratpoison> Armada, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows use whatever one you like
[16:29] <mohkohn> My current setup is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16196/
[16:30] <mohkohn> What am I doing wrong?
[16:30] <noobuntu> ImDude: first transparency bellow general settings (second group), disable it
[16:30] <babolat> ImDude: check if you have System > Preferences > Advanced Desktop Effect Settings. If you do, then use the function search feature for "transparency"
[16:30] <mohbana> how do i play a dvd which i just mounted? it was previously an iso file, if i use movie player i have to manually select all the .vob files
[16:31] <nomasteryoda> mohbana, you can select a folder to play in vlc
[16:31] <mDemocritus> mohbana: some media players can play a directory...
[16:31] <nomasteryoda> or smplayer
[16:31] <mDemocritus> mohbana: kaffeine does it too
[16:31] <ratpoison> mohbana, use vlc. Then File > Open Disk (or something similar) Then choose the corect device
[16:31] <nomasteryoda> and they "realize" the folder is more or less a dvd and just play it
[16:32] <mohbana> thanks alot
[16:32] <noobuntu> trident523: the funny stuff is that i saw windows networks just before a couple of days. and since i tried to install wlan on ubuntu, i can't see it anymore
[16:32] <mohbana> got it working! vlc
[16:32] <Dasmoover> i got my problem nearly fixed

[16:32] <cognatus> personally i say plain partitions etronik
[16:32] <mDemocritus> huh... there is LEET people in this room
[16:33] <noobuntu> ImDude: did you found it? just disable first transparency option bellow general section *general is the very first section*
[16:33] <ratpoison> Dasmoover, System > Admin > Hardware Drivers. That's what worked on my other pc
[16:33] <etronik> cognatus: care to elaborate just a tad ?
[16:33] <Dasmoover> thankd!
[16:33] <bazhang> Dasmoover, either that or envyng-gtk
[16:33] <cognatus> etronik, YMMV but i found LVMing to be considerably less useful than previosuly imagined
[16:33] <Dasmoover> sudo apt-get install?
[16:34] <bazhang> Dasmoover, aye
[16:34] <ratpoison> Dasmoover, aye, or synaptic, if you like it graphical
[16:34] <cognatus> etronik, and now i have 200GB of data that i want to de-LVM and no space to do it in
[16:34] <mDemocritus> Dasmoover: then you can make sure it's working with glxinfo | grep direct
[16:34] <mDemocritus> Dasmoover: it should say direct rendering = yes
[16:34] <Dasmoover> im not using the graphics card
[16:34] <Dasmoover> i need to install the drivers on
[16:34] <Dasmoover> im using my onboard
[16:35] <Dasmoover> is that ok?
[16:35] <pablo> Hi, i have a problem upgrading to hardy. There is a version error. This is my problem  http://paste.ubuntu.com/16192/ Does anybody know why it can happen? I havent install anything different than upgrades and amsn
[16:35] <mDemocritus> Dasmoover: nope....
[16:35] <ratpoison> Dasmoover, well, it will try to choose the appropriate drivers for you
[16:35] <bazhang> Dasmoover, nay
[16:35] <Dasmoover> i cant boot into ubuntu though with the cards
[16:35] <Taza> Would dd if=/dev/hda1 | (gzip)
[16:35] <mDemocritus> Dasmoover: disable the onboard in bios?
[16:35] <Taza> Ehh. Halfline. Ignore that.
[16:35] <Dasmoover> just do sudo apt-get install envy in the command line?
[16:36] <babolat> pablo: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/31455
[16:36] <Dasmoover> no no, i have much problems with graphics card, ubuntu wouldnt ,load
[16:36] <bazhang> Dasmoover, envyng-gtk
[16:36] <ratpoison> envyng-gtk is the packagename I think
[16:36] <Dasmoover> i will do that in command line with my card
[16:36] <Dasmoover> thanks all!
[16:36] <Taza> Would dd if=/dev/hda1 | (gzip to file) and then (gzip from file) | dd of=/dev/hda1 successfully backup and restore a NTFS partition in /dev/hda1 in case of viruses / spyware?
[16:36] <ratpoison> Dasmoover,  On my other pc, I installed the exact same card from System > Hardware Drivers without a hassle
[16:37] <Taza> Note: The image would be made when the system is clear.
[16:37] <Dasmoover> but im not using the graphics cxard io need the drivers for
[16:37] <quaal> anyone have a rec for a good laptop cd drive enclosure
[16:37] <babolat> are you still having that problem, julio?
[16:37] <bazhang> !hcl | quaal
[16:37] <ubot3`> quaal: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection
[16:37] <ratpoison> Dasmoover, that won't be a problem, doesn't an option for the NVIDA proprietary drivers appear there?
[16:37] <Taza> Also, what's the package for the closed source nVidia drivers?
 nope can't find those settings
[16:37] <babolat> are you still having that problem, pablo?
[16:37] <Dasmoover> yes
[16:37] <Dasmoover> enable that?
[16:38] <babolat> sorry, julio wrong nick
[16:38] <pablo> babolat, im going to try what u suggest
[16:38] <julio> babolat, ok =D
[16:38] <nomasteryoda> pablo, you should look at the log file to see what it is reporting....
[16:38] <ratpoison> Dasmoover, yes, restart and you're through
[16:38] <babolat> pablo: sudo do-release-upgrade -m desktop in a terminal
[16:38] <Dasmoover> ok and use my gfx card?
[16:38] <quaal> bazhang, yea i dont see anything about enclosures there!
[16:38] <ratpoison> Dasmoover, that's what it did on my machine
[16:38] <ggeecko> is nfs good for video playback
  I am in CompizConfig
[16:38] <Dasmoover> kk! brb
[16:38] <babolat> pablo: The do-release-upgrade command defaults to server upgrade mode.
[16:39] <nomasteryoda> pablo, do what babolat says
[16:39] <Pers3ux> Hi, i have problem in compiling a module -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=811382
[16:39] <noobuntu> ImDude: group Accessibility, disable Opacity
[16:39] <Pers3ux> can anybody help me?
 ok let me check
[16:39] <babolat> !ask | Pers3ux
[16:39] <ubot3`> Pers3ux: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[16:39] <noobuntu> ImDude: opacify, sry
[16:39] <Taza> Would dd if=/dev/hda1 | (gzip to file) and then (gzip from file) | dd of=/dev/hda1 successfully backup and restore a NTFS partition in /dev/hda1 in case of viruses / spyware?
[16:40] <pablo> do-release-upgrade: error: -m option requires an argument
[16:41] <Pers3ux> babolat: ok man :(
[16:41] <babolat> pablo: "sudo do-release-upgrade -m desktop" without the quotes
 opacity options were disabled, but I still get transparent window
[16:41] <amenado> Taza  dd is bit for bit disk dump
[16:41] <mDemocritus> Taza i would imagine so... dd works on raw data, so it should work
[16:41] <Taza> mDemocritus: What about partition size?
[16:41] <noobuntu> ImDude: give me a moment to look at it
 thanks
[16:42] <mDemocritus> well, it would do the entire partition
[16:42] <Taza> mDemocritus: Lemme guess, the partitions should be exactly the same size if restoring. Or will dd write safely on a larger partition?
[16:42] <mDemocritus> Taza: error on the side of caution... same partition size
[16:42] <pablo> babolat,  sorry the same error
[16:42] <leetbumble> Hello all. Was wondering if anyone had BlueRay discs working in their comp. I havent set out on it yet and the web has mixed results. is it worth the hassle?
[16:43] <pablo> babolat, i will copy the log in teh web so u can c it
[16:43] <mohkohn> If my Vista Client can see my Ubuntu access point and the signal is strong, and it connects is the problem ...
[16:43] <mDemocritus> Taza: i don't have much xp with dd tho.... google the hell out of that before you write it
[16:43] <Taza> mDemocritus: Yeah, I was thinking that too. That however means I need to do the partitioning with the windows installer if I do...
[16:43] <mohkohn> how I configured the host?
[16:43] <mohkohn> client I mean!
[16:43] <mDemocritus> Taza you should be able to partition it with fdisk... just make sure the type of the partition is correct
[16:43] <Taza> mDemocritus: I'm thinking of just dd'ing the windows xp partition to the linux partition and then restoring WHEN windows gets chockfull of malware again
[16:44] <Taza> Because oh-so-rare types of malware can infect a linux install from windows and then corrupt a disk image.
[16:44] <noobuntu> ImDude: perhaps i got wrong what is bothering you, tell me again your problem plz
[16:44] <mDemocritus> Taza: or just don't use windows for web surfing....
[16:44] <mDemocritus> Taza: or anything for that matter :D
[16:44] <Taza> mDemocritus: Not an option. Bro.
[16:44] <Taza> mDemocritus: He's strictly against booting to a different OS for gaming.
[16:44] <pablo> babolot, here is the log http://paste.ubuntu.com/16197/
[16:45] <babolat> pablo: you can type the first few letters of a nick and then press TAB to auto complete nicknames
[16:45] <noobuntu> ImDude: perhaps i got wrong what is bothering you, tell me again your problem plz
[16:45] <mDemocritus> babolat: that's awesome i never knew that trick
[16:46] <pablo> babolat: thx
[16:46] <ratpoison> mDemocritus, works for directory names on the command line too
[16:46] <mDemocritus> Taza: psh that's his problem :D
[16:46] <babolat> pablo: "sudo do-release-upgrade -m desktop" ... what you did was "sudo do-release-upgrade -m"
 here is a thing: if I get multiple windows opened the other windows behind the top one are transparent, the top layer is ok, just the behind layers, so I'd like to disable that transparency
[16:46] <mDemocritus> ratpoison: i know that... i just never imagined tabbed completion would be useful outside of a CLI
[16:47] <ratpoison> mDemocritus, it is, it also works on matlab, if you're using that
[16:47] <netboy> hello
[16:47] <pablo> babolat: check line number 5 pls
[16:47] <noobuntu> ImDude: so, only the top window is not transparent?
[16:47] <netboy> how to install wine in ubuntu linux ????
[16:47] <babolat> pablo: easy way to paste to the terminal is to highlight copy a text then, with the cursor in the terminal active, press Ctrl-Shift-V
[16:48] <Dasmoover> nope i still have the same error wit hmy graphics card im using onboard
[16:48] <Starnestommy> netboy: sudo apt-get install wine
[16:48] <mohkohn> On a second issue how do I remove a firefox extension that comes back after every time I uninstall it?
[16:48] <Lynet>  netboy: You install it just like any other program.
 correct
[16:48] <netboy> then what should i do to install mirc.exe
[16:48] <dury> hi there channel :)
[16:48] <babolat> pablo: do you have all the updates for your current install?
[16:48] <mDemocritus> Taza: that idea could mess up the games.... registry values and all
 but I also like the fact that I can use alt and mouse2 (scroll) to make any windows transparent
[16:48] <noobuntu> ImDude: press super+P ... if this is not your solution, press it again to go back
[16:49] <Starnestommy> netboy: wine /path/to/mirc.exe, or double-click on mirc.exe in the file browser
[16:49] <pablo> babolat: yes, i have download all the updates and amsn, but nothing else
[16:49] <timmyd> are there alternative apt sources for gnash cvs versions?
[16:49] <Lynet> netboy: ..run the installer perhaps?
[16:49] <netboy> After this operation, 55.1MB of additional disk space will be used.
[16:49] <netboy> Really wine is 55mb ??
[16:49] <ratpoison> pablo, or highlight with mouse and middle click (it will only paste the currently highlighted text though) if you like mouse better
[16:49] <Taza> mDemocritus: It's still easier than reinstalling everything every time he gets a virus
[16:49] <mDemocritus> netboy: well, it's a full emulator for windows, so that makes sense
[16:50] <netboy> the mirc will work right?
[16:50] <Dasmoover> can anyone pm and help me out
[16:50] <mDemocritus> Taza: i suppose....
[16:50] <netboy> so i can add remote ??
[16:50] <pablo> ratpoison: im using right click, but its ok
[16:50] <Blizzara> Wine Is Not an Emulator
[16:50] <babolat> pablo: in Software Sources, do you have the pre-release and unsupported updates checked/enabled?
[16:50] <dury> how do I change root's psswd?
[16:50] <Myrtti> dury you don't
 the thing is that as soon as I scroll over t  behind window the transparency disapears right away
[16:50] <Starnestommy> !noroot | dury
[16:50] <ubot3`> dury: We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-)
[16:50] <Myrtti> !root | dury
[16:50] <ubot3`> dury: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[16:51] <Scott_Bernard> hi
[16:51] <Starnestommy> netboy: mirc does work in wine
[16:51] <Chad2408m> Hi, how do you change the default (startup) resolution, mine is too high and the screen scrolls.  Is there any file you can edit?
[16:51] <pablo> babolat: yes, i just find out that i have pre-release
[16:51] <netboy> ok thank you everyone
[16:51] <pablo> babolat: i am new at this
[16:51] <babolat> pablo, disable it then try again
[16:51] <noobuntu> ImDude: well, i get this soon as i enable Opacify ... if it is disabled, we must search through all opacity settings
[16:52] <pablo> babolat: should i press revert?
[16:52] <babolat> yes, pablo
[16:52] <dury> ok how do I change sudo (root) psswd?
[16:52] <Starnestommy> dury: sudo ius your user's password
[16:52] <cognatus> in ubuntu it's better not to
[16:52] <Starnestommy> *is
[16:52] <babolat> there is NO ROOT PASSWORD dury
[16:52] <Scott_Bernard> must i change windows to linux? what have linux that windows doesn't?
[16:52] <Blizzara> dury, why do you want to change it?
[16:53] <bazhang> dury do not go down that path
[16:53] <netboy> type passwd on terminal and change it
 I am digging I am also pretty sure its somewhere in the compiz settings its just there are so many settings sometimes its hard to find things right away
[16:53] <netboy> Scott_Bernard linux is totally FREE
[16:53] <Myrtti> Scott_Bernard: are you into software development?
[16:53] <noobuntu> ImDude: what settings do you have in General Options *double click on it to see it*
[16:54] <bazhang> !lnw | Scott_Bernard
[16:54] <ubot3`> Scott_Bernard: Want to know the differences between Windows and Linux? This guide, called "Linux is Not Windows" is a pretty good read -- http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[16:54] <babolat> Scott_Bernard: http://linuxlab.dk/ten-reasons
[16:54] <Scott_Bernard> no i don't develop soft
[16:54] <babolat> pablo: how's it going?
[16:55] <dury> just want to change the pàsswd in ubuntu, I guess it's possible, isn't it?
[16:55] <pablo> babolat: it seems to be working
[16:55] <lordnoid> hi, i need a package of the lastest version of the mac codes (monkeys audio)
[16:55] <KRF> !root | dury
[16:55] <ubot3`> dury: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[16:55] <lordnoid> does anyone know where to get it?
[16:55] <babolat> ok, pablo. congrats

[17:00] <Lynet> mohkohn: That should work fine, what problem do you have with setting it up?
[17:00] <Chad2408m> how do you change the default (startup) resolution, mine is too high and the screen scrolls when you move the mouse to the edge of the screen.
[17:00] <eyes`only> every time a new dist-upgrade comes out, my OS creates two new kernels, one i386 the other 'generic'. The i386 never works, it doesn't have vid drivers nor wireless drivers... I've gone into menu.lst and commented out the i386 version but how do i stop this behavior?
[17:00] <mohkohn> Lynet, are we talking about my pastebin?
[17:00] <babolat> Chad2408m: have you tried System > Pref > Screen Resolution ?

[17:02] <babolat> netboy: that sounds like a mobo issue
[17:02] <mohkohn> Lynet, essential I am trying to do this with Ubuntu: http://www.macinstruct.com/node/118
[17:02] <netboy> how to setting a mobo?
[17:02] <Chad2408m> babolat: yes, but whenever I restart it gets reset back to 1400x1050.
[17:02] <babolat> netboy: mobo = motherboard..
[17:02] <mohkohn> I have an iMac. It takes me a couple of clicks in OSX and XP
[17:03] <eyes`only> flyinggreg: that sounds much like what happened to me... what actually happened was that two upgrades were created in menu.lst, commenting the wrong one out fixed it
[17:03] <netboy> oh i see
[17:03] <netboy> before this it work fine on front usb
[17:03] <dimas869> does anyone know how to fix this error message?...everything it get stoke terminal, synaptic, etc....Dpkg: error of processing, in the card index `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near the line 26987 package `glchess' : error in the chain `Version' `4194304:' : there is nothing after the two points in the number of version AND: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned go error code (2)

[17:07] <mohkohn> Excellent even!
[17:07] <Kuwanger> babolat: Edit it in what way?
[17:08] <babolat> Kuwanger: you need to add a line to that file.. see the link that ubot3 gave you ^
[17:08] <legend2440> eyes`only: if you uninstall linux-image-2.6.24-16-386 it won't update so it won't rewrite the menu.lst
[17:08] <flyinggreg> eyes`only:  so this is a kernel issue?
[17:08] <dimas869> eyes`only would you help me?
[17:08] <eyes`only> dimas: never had issues with my dpkg, sorry

[17:09] <Rodderrick> anyone tell me how i copy and paste from this window ..there dosnt seem to be that option when i right click over it ??
[17:09] <Dasmoover> anyone?
[17:09] <Chad2408m> babolat: thanks, but that wasnt what I needed.  The screen resolution on the desktop itself is too high, and I have to go to screen res and chang it manually everytime. is there someway to have this be done automaticly
[17:09] <jarosser87> ctrl-c
[17:09] <jarosser87> to copy
[17:09] <MattJ> Rodderrick: It is copied automatically
[17:09] <Rodderrick> thanks
[17:10] <MattJ> Rodderrick: Just select the text
[17:10] <dimas869> eyes`only what it could be?...any little small idea how to get there?
[17:10] <Rodderrick> i selected the text ...but no copy facility
[17:10] <eyes`only> flyinggreg: if yours is like mine,you have two boot options-- one 'i386' the other 'generic'
[17:10] <mohkohn> Lynet, http://paste.ubuntu.com/16204/
[17:10] <Dasmoover> anyone help me?
[17:10] <jarosser87> Rodederrick:ctrl-c to copy
[17:10] <eyes`only> dimas: boot from the ubuntu cd and choose repair
[17:10] <MattJ> Rodderrick: As I said, select the text, it is copied *automatically* :) (I am assuming you are using XChat)
[17:10] <netboy> running wine make my pc going slow
[17:10] <netboy> why?
[17:11] <Rodderrick> yes
[17:11] <Starnestommy> netboy: because wine has to emulate many parts of windows
[17:11] <flyinggreg> eyes`only: thanks, i'll have to boot into it and check it out
[17:11] <eyes`only> legend2440: how do I uninstall that kernel?
[17:11] <babolat> Chad2408m: looks like you have to edit corg.conf
[17:11] <Lynet> mohkohn: Delete the "gateway <IP_ADDRESS>" line, change "address <IP_ADDRESS>" to <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:11] <babolat> Chad2408m: do you need a walkthrough?
[17:11] <eyes`only> flyinggreg: yeah, to test-- hit esc during boot and when you get your list of kernels see if there's two per kernel version

[17:12] <dimas869> eyes`only i have like three years with ubuntu
[17:12] <eyes`only> dimas869: not sure, just found a forum post that said 'You seem to have uninstalled dpkg somehow (as well as some other core packages), which is the program that installs packages. I think you may have to repair the installation from an install CD at this point, unless you're up to manually compiling dpkg.'

[17:14] <ActionParsnip> hi [LMJ]
[17:14] <mohkohn> thanks Lynet I will give it a go
[17:14] <Lanlost> I installed the firefox 2 package also and now everytime I run firefox, firefox-2 or firefox-3.0.. it says I'm running firefox 2 (the about page). Even with a browser detection page like http://www.quirksmode.org/js/detect.html

[17:14] <haris1> can some one let me know how to install mouse theme which i have downloaded?
[17:14] <Chad2408m> babolat: I opened it, and under 'display' it says Depth 24, and Virtual 1400 1050.  Should i change these values?
[17:15] <josspyker> mohkohn: what is the problem?
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> MattJ: is it not enableable?
[17:15] <Lanlost> eyes`only, the demuxer
[17:15] <Lanlost> ?
[17:15] <babolat> Chad2408m: change depth to 16, then virtual to 1280x760 or whatever's right for you

[17:15] <Chad2408m> babolat: okay, but my depth is usually 24, should I change that too?

[17:16] <Kuwanger> babolat: Okay, I added the line to fstab.  Now what?
[17:16] <babolat> Chad2408m: so keep depth at 24.. change it later if you still have an issue
[17:16] <wallacy> any1 got the install of catalyst 8.5 working fine . . .
[17:16] <eyes`only> but i gave up the source to the guy that did scenaid
[17:16] <[LMJ]> I'm following this basic C/C++ tut : http://aelinik.free.fr/c/ch02.htm and I have to compile my first "hello world" : gcc mycode.c and  #include <stdio.h> is not know by GCC, what i'm missing on my system ? (dpkg-dev already installed with make, gcc and so on)
[17:16] <mohkohn> josspyker, not sure but I need to try Lynet 's solution. back in a tic
[17:16] <eyes`only> and he didnt do much with it
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> MattJ: bah, just my keyboard is a bit hit n miss, so id love to see if my input has been successful
[17:17] <Lanlost> I find myself wanting to code programs like that all the time. I used to want to design a great gui for the program so that anyone could use it. But then testing programs on my mom.. it just doesn't seem to matter how well I do it haha
[17:17] <haris1> can some one let me know how to install mouse theme which i have downloaded?
[17:17] <dimas869> eyes`only would you help go throw this manually?
[17:17] <Chad2408m> babolat: Thank you very much!
[17:17] <babolat> Kuwanger: adding the device to fstab meant you want to automount upon startup correct? then that means you need to powercycle
[17:17] <jarosser87> Dasmoover: it says it cannot find glx visual. have you searched synaptic for glx
[17:17] <ferronica> family(6) model(15) stepping(13) ,Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual  CPU  E2180  @ 2.00GHz
[17:17] <Dasmoover> no
[17:17] <eyes`only> dimas869: I seriously don't know how!
[17:17] <jarosser87> when i did a search i found nvidia-glx
[17:17] <Kuwanger> babolat: Uh, no.  I want it to automount when I put in a dvd/cd.
[17:17] <jarosser87> along with a couple
[17:17] <jarosser87> others
[17:17] <babolat> you need to restart, Kuwanger
[17:17] <Lanlost> jarosser87, what are you trying to do?
[17:17] <eyes`only> dimas869: but here's something I just found... if you go to system>administration>synaptic, you can search for dpkg and uninstall/reinstall it
[17:17] <Lanlost> I've had some pains with nvidia-glx
[17:17] <jarosser87> huh
[17:18] <Kuwanger> babolat: Why would I need to restart?
[17:18] <jrib> [LMJ]: have you installed build-essential?

[17:18] <ferronica> jrib: do you know?
[17:18] <ferronica> jrib: CPU temprature monitor application for ubuntu 8.04(simple one which give me exact reading)
[17:18] <dimas869> eyes`only synaptic gets stock with the error too
[17:18] <babolat> Kuwanger: *sigh* because for automount_upon_bootup means you need to actually boot up.. to do that, you need to turn off your computer and actually boot up
[17:18] <eyes`only> eww
[17:18] <Lanlost> ah ok... I didn't see their message
[17:18] <ferronica> jrib: family(6) model(15) stepping(13) ,Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual  CPU  E2180  @ 2.00GHz

[17:19] <noobuntu> ImDude: np, main thing you solve it. i'm glad i could help
[17:19] <STSX> babolat: Kuwanger could test his new fstab with a simple "sudo mount -a" instead of rebooting...
[17:20] <Kuwanger> STSX: Of course that works.  That's manually mounting.
[17:20] <eyes`only> dimas869: how about 'aptitude' at a terminal
 I spent so much time before and I just coudn't find the right spot
[17:20] <babolat> Kuwanger: check this instead -->http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=292995

[17:20] <ImDude> noobuntu: thanks again
[17:21] <Lanlost> so.. firefox doesn't seem to have java enabled but I checked the synaptic package manager and the sun distro of it is installed. Do I just need a plugin? I also installed openjdk.. Which is better? When I ran sudo update-alternatives --config java it had a star by the OpenJDK one
[17:21] <STSX> Kuwanger: Actually that doesn't always work if your fstab is not correct.
[17:21] <Lanlost> probably because I installed it second.. it was probably already set to default
[17:21] <Kuwanger> STSX: Well, yea.  But the issue wasn't whether I could manually mount it or not or diagnose altering fstab to mount that way.
[17:22] <dimas869> any application gets stock with the error
[17:22] <Kuwanger> STSX: The issue was how to get auto-mounting to work so I wouldn't have to manually mount/unmount all the time for my dvd-rom drive. :/
[17:22] <babolat> Kuwanger: could you paste your fstab?
[17:22] <haris1> how can i install mouse theme downloaded?
[17:23] <mohkohn> Lynet, it worked! Thank you. I will give you a virtual beer. A real one if you ever come to Cambodia!
[17:23] <STSX> Kuwanger: OK, I understand your point now.
[17:23] <dimas869> what about just fixing what it says here?...Dpkg: error of processing, in the card index `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near the line 26987 package `glchess' : error in the chain `Version' `4194304:' : there is nothing after the two points in the number of version AND: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned go error code (2)

[17:23] <jrib> [LMJ]: also, I'm pretty sure the standard requires you to use "int main", not just "main" (though it will work), so you may want to head over to ##c and ask their opinion of that tut and maybe they can offer some better ones
[17:23] <eyes`only> any way to turn off the joins and parts in xchat?
[17:23] <Chipsa964> Every once in a while, my sound stops working and I need to restart to get it to work again.  Can anyone help?
[17:24] <D3RGPS31> Misc Question - using windows my IP would always stay the same, i didn't have to set it to static it was just like that. using ubuntu/other linux my IP changes every time i startup. How can I change that?

[17:24] <RadarG> hello everyone I'm using xbuntu and its not seeing my ISA NIC. I have DSL linux on it right now and it say the NIC just fine. I'm using the latest live CD and it cant see it. I would really like to get the NIC working so I can switch to xubuntu
[17:25] <josspyker> D3RGPS31: assign a static ip adres to the nic
[17:25] <ezzieyguywuf> I have a custom suspend script that I want to use. I checked the gnome-power-manager website, and in the faq it says that custom scripts should be put in "/prefix/share/hal/scripts/system/hal-system-power-" but this directory doesn't seem to exist on my system, all the way down to /prefix. any help?
[17:25] <derspankster> D3RGPS31, I assume you're behind a router?
[17:25] <eyes`only> legend2440: thanks! i was looking in the menus and they're very limited
[17:25] <D3RGPS31> josepyker: i've tried that, it fails after i reboot
[17:25] <D3RGPS31> darspankster: yes
[17:25] <haris1>  how can i change mouse theme..........?
[17:26] <derspankster> D3RGPS31, Like was said, assign a static address OUTSIDE the range of your routers DHCP
[17:26] <RadarG> any ideas?
[17:26] <legend2440> eyes`only: looks like it the irc_conf_mode that needs to be turned off

[17:27] <RadarG> I'm using xubuntu version 8.04
[17:27] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: I think maybe you're looking for: /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-suspend-linux
[17:27] <Lanlost> thanks eyes`only.. I figured that I just needed to do the firefox side of the installation.. They are right.. why isn't there a GUI install for this for linux? This would be such a pain for an average windows user
[17:27] <harushimo> i'm still getting an buffer i/o error
[17:27] <D3RGPS31> derspankster: my internal IP is the same as external 72.224.xxx.xxx, so i should follow around the lines you say?
[17:27] <harushimo> how do I fix that
[17:27] <haris1>  how can i change mouse theme in ubuntu 8.04......../
[17:27] <Lanlost> my questions more about which is better.. the sun jdk or openjdk.. but I found out that openjdk is by sun anyway.. so.. I'll figure it out the old fashioned way
[17:27] <RadarG> for some reason the NIC isnt working using the livecd
[17:28] <derspankster> D3RGPS31, your IP is assigned by your router
[17:28] <eyes`only> Lanlost: yeah I couldn't tell you that... i wish there was just one standard!
[17:28] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: yea that helps thanks. so by /prefix do they mean /usr? also, do i just replaye hal-system-power-suspend-linux with my custom script?
[17:28] <legend2440> eyes`only: actually it need to be set to 1 for on to hide join part msgs
[17:28] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: What is the URL of the gnome-power-manager website? I'm just curious.
[17:28] <babolat> Kuwanger: upon startup, without inserting a CD, do you see your CD/DVD drive in "Computer" or /media ?
[17:28] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnome-power-manager/index.html that is the main page
[17:28] <ununtuulover> :-*
[17:29] <freeborn> does anyone know what causes the live cd when booting to attach to the xsession?  I am trying to create a custom liveCD but used the server as a base...  and installed gnome-core on top of it.  However when I boot the live CD in KVM it does not switch the the xsession but only a console.  In comparision the default ubuntu iso does connect to the xserver when booting in a kvm session
[17:29] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: i found the answer to my question in the FAQ
[17:29] <eyes`only> Lanlost: /set irc_conf_mode=1 gives 'no such variable'
[17:29] <Kuwanger> babolat: Nope.
[17:29] <D3RGPS31> derspanker: yes, but i can't change 72.224.xxx.xxx, the range in the xxxs are from 1 to 255 so i don't think i'd beable to go outste that range
[17:29] <Kuwanger> babolat: I should note, I'm not running gnome.
[17:29] <eyes`only> err that was to legend2440 :-\
[17:30] <babolat> Kuwanger: then I strongly suggest you restart.
[17:30] <actionshrimp> hi, how do you find out what hw:x,x a certain card is?
[17:30] <Kuwanger> babolat: I still don't get your obsession with restarting.
[17:30] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: I guess all you would need to do is replace that script. Have you tested your script successfully? and just out of curiosity--where did you get it?
[17:30] <suRs> how do i take screen shot?
[17:30] <ggeecko> I keep getting overflow in spectral RLE ignoring playing mplayer
[17:31] <eyes`only> legend2440: ok i figured it out.. the /set command needs no '=' sign
[17:31] <babolat> Kuwanger: just trying to help. i need to go, and i am telling you that you *might* solve your problem with a restart.. would it be that hard?
[17:31] <warmfreeze> ugh
[17:31] <eyes`only> grr still getting quits and joins! lol
[17:31] <legend2440> eyes`only: might need to restart xchat for it to kick in
[17:32] <warmfreeze> can someone help me get my resolution over 800x600 O_o
[17:32] <Kuwanger> babolat: How might it solve my problem?
[17:32] <grobda24> suRs ... alt - print screen
[17:32] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: yes my script runs great. All it does is a) replace compiz with metacity. b) call /usr/sbin/pm-suspend c) replace metacity with compiz :-) actuall, i had to sleep the computer after replacing compiz with metacity because it wasn't giving the comp enough time to make the change before replacing. It works great for suspending with ATI graphic and compiz. i made it myself (my first script!)
[17:32] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: would you like to see the script? its quite short
[17:33] <eyes`only> legend2440: i refuse to restart an irc app for such a simple setting :P
[17:33] <jasiek_> hi
[17:33] <STSX> actionshrimp: I think that info is in /proc/asound/modules
[17:33] <babolat> again, Kuwanger... when adding a device to fstab, that means you want that device to be mounted when you STARTUP.. right after saving fstab after adding that file, no STARTUP is executed is there? and how do you execute a STARTUP? by turning off your computer then turning it on again.
[17:33] <jasiek_> hi i have a problem with apt someone can help me ?
[17:33] <warmfreeze> anyone for the res issue?
[17:33] <babolat> jasiek_: we dont see a question
[17:33] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: Sure, it sounds interesting--can you pastebin it please?
[17:34] <Kuwanger> babolat: No, I don't.  If no media is inserted, there's nothing to mount and it'll fail.  If some media *is* in the drive, it will automount.  But, then, I can't press eject to unmount.
[17:34] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/16209/
[17:34] <flying_greg> eyes'only: I checked out my menu.lst and it looks ok
[17:34] <STSX> babolat: That isn't entirely true--you can test fstab by doing a "sudo umount -a" and it will mount everything in fstab.
[17:34] <Kuwanger> babolat: Beyond that, 99% of the time, the dvd-rom drive won't even be connected at startup.
[17:34] <jasiek_> when i try to install something apt wants to install kdebase-workspace-libs4+5
[17:35] <remu> hey everyone, I've just installed screenlets for the first time. I have a few screenlets that I'd like to keep on the desktop, and not allow them to be minimizable, even when I click the show desktop button, is this possible? I've tried a number of google searches, and none of the solutions seem to work out, I was hoping that the "Window Rules" plugin in compiz might do the trick, but unfortunately that was a no go...any ideas?
[17:35] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx : i'm kind of hesitant to replace the whole hal-system-power-suspend-linux script with my custom one, namely because there are a lot of things i'm removing that i'm not sure what they do.
[17:35] <Chipsa964> Every once in a while, my sound stops working and I need to restart to get it to work again.  Can anyone help?
[17:35] <babolat> Kuwanger: it's your problem not mine.. mine is an advice :)
[17:35] <warmfreeze> Can someone please help me with a hardware issue ?
[17:35] <Kuwanger> babolat: Granted, it's my problem.  I'm just trying to get advice more than the "kick it, maybe it'll work" variety. :)
[17:36] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: But you have nothing to worry about if you just simply rename the existing one and replace it with yours. You can always change it back, right? :)
[17:36] <eyes`only> flying_greg: well that sucks...
[17:36] <ezzieyguywuf> stss: good point
[17:36] <eyes`only> legend2440: ok you win, i'm restarting :P
[17:36] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: plus, i guess i will be using the pm-suspend script which does a lot
[17:36] <warmfreeze> maybe il go over to the sabayon channel ..they will probibly help more O_o
[17:37] <babolat> Kuwanger: a CD/DVD drive is a device in itself, even without a disc inserted in it. a restart is not a bang-it-might-work solution.
[17:37] <ggeecko> I keep getting overflow in spectral RLE ignoring playing mplayer
[17:37] <Dasmoover> hey
[17:37] <flying_greg> eyes`only: thanks for the help it was worth a try.  my menu.lst shows 8.04, 2.6.24-16-generic
[17:37] <Dasmoover> who helped me earlier'?
[17:37] <jarosser87> DASMOOVER that would be me
[17:37] <jarosser87> or at least attempted to
[17:37] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: Do you know offhand if that gnome power manager site has info about the "/usr/sbin/pm-suspend" program you are using? I have to use /etc/acpi/sleep.sh for my computer. Where did you get info about that program?
[17:38] <eyes`only> i still cant believe that an app on an OS that prides itself for lack of need for reboots needed to be restarted for such a simple change as turning off joins and parts
[17:38] <warmfreeze> can any one even read my text?
[17:38] <eyes`only> flying_greg: that's the only entry?
[17:38] <Kuwanger> babolat: Look, I'm pretty sure that at some point, an event is generated by the kernel when a cd-rom is inserted in the dvd-rom drive.  And I'm pretty sure that at that point, something will then execute the mount command necessary to mount the disc.
[17:38] <flying_greg> eyes`only: well, i got recovery mode, memtest also, and win2k
[17:39] <babolat> Kuwanger: as you please *sigh*
[17:39] <Kuwanger> babolat: My general issue is, I don't know what that "something" is and why it's not running/working.
[17:39] <Sp4rKy> Is there some people having usbuirt worling with lirc on last ubuntu kernel (<IP_ADDRESS>) ?

This is the case of both interface and content. Any idea or tip on a dependancie that may be the concern ?
[17:39] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: i think i read somewhere that they would eventually make pm-suspend standard. I found it doing a search for files on my comp for 'suspend' as i was trying to find the script that controls suspend. I don't think pm-suspend does at the moment but it works great. That gnome-power-management website does mention it though. you should check it out.

[17:39] <flying_greg> eyes`only: i was thinking it was in interfaces, networks,hostname, hosts...everything looks ok
[17:40] <jatt> where can I see the screen resolution used currently on my laptop?
[17:40] <Kuwanger> STSX: xev is for X events, not linux kernel events
[17:40] <anirudh0> simi, manual placement of plugins?
[17:40] <flying_greg> eyes`only:  i got video just fine, just no networking capability whatsoever
[17:40] <STSX> Kuwanger: My mistake. :)
[17:40] <anirudh0> simi, /usr/lib/firefox/plugins i think..
[17:40] <zvacet> jatt : system>preferences>screen resolution
[17:40] <Kuwanger> STSX: No problem.
[17:40] <simi> anirudh0: yes manualy
[17:41] <eyes`only> flying_greg: do you actually have the non-generic video drivers? when it happened to me I was stuck with the software drivers
[17:41] <anirudh0> STSX, dmesg?
[17:41] <uvok> hello
[17:41] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: Did you ever try the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh script?
[17:41] <anirudh0> simi, hmm..try there..not sure if it'll get recognized..look at about:plugins in ff after you put it there..check perms too
[17:42] <flying_greg> eyes`only: i got the ati driver from ati - why would video driver kill my networking?
[17:42] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: yea, i think thats the default script. uhm, i accidentally removed (rm) my hal-system-power-suspend-linux script instead of renaming it (mv) like a dummy! could you pastebin yours for me so that i can have a backup?
[17:42] <uvok> I want to use dpkg-www, but I don't want to install apache. Is it also possible to use another (small?) webserver, and how do I have to configure it? (I chose thttpd)
[17:42] <zvacet> simi : usr/bon/totem/gstreamer
[17:42] <simi> anirudh0: thx
[17:42] <dimedo> hi there, does anyone have an idea why there are no speaker setups shown in my amarok on ubuntu hardy amd64?
[17:42] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: :D You really did that? OK hang on...
[17:42] <zvacet> zvacet :  *usr/bin
[17:43] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: i know i know.....
[17:44] <jatt> zvacet: thanks!
[17:44] <zvacet> jatt . np
[17:44] <eyes`only> flying_greg: it wouldn't, i'm just saying that when i lost wireless i also lost my vid driver, so apparently we don't have the exact same symptoms
[17:44] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: I forgot to ask--are you on Hardy or Gutsy? I'm not sure if they changed the script between the versions, but just to be safe I want to give you the one you need.
[17:44] <anirudh0> uvok, searching google for "lighthttpd tut" is more likely to be helpful
[17:44] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: i'm on hardy
[17:45] <eyes`only> flying_greg: do you not have ability for standard wired NIC either?
[17:46] <flying_greg> eyes`only: nope, i have absolutely NO networking...wired or wireless...i can't even connect to my server through putty...going nuts here
[17:46] <flying_greg> eyes`only: i am stuck using win2k right now...hating life
[17:46] <eyes`only> flying_greg: what happens if you run gnome-network-preferences
[17:46] <STSX> ezzieyguywuf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16210/
[17:47] <Rawk02> anybody know why ubuntu would keep "loosing" my domain settings?
[17:47] <Rawk02> already checked and it is not set to roaming
[17:47] <flying_greg> eyes`only: if that's the same as the ubuntu gui...i can change it between static, dhcp, etc. and nothing happens...can't even ping
[17:48] <ezzieyguywuf> stsx: thanks, thats a lifesaver. let me go try out my custom script now with fn-f4 :-)
[17:48] <filo86> I can't set up internet connection (DHCP && StaticIP doesn't work) thru ethernet modem, ubuntu 7.04, eth0 RTL8168 PCI-E 1Gb
[17:48] <Kuwanger> Hmm, it seems I might be right.
[17:48] <filo86> under winXP it works
[17:48] <STSX> Rawk02: If I were you I would check /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname and make sure they exactly agree, with the domain included.
[17:48] <trebnoj> hey ive got a question: in the topic of this channel it tells me to "type /msg ubottu etiquette"
[17:48] <trebnoj> its that a typo?
[17:48] <flying_greg> filo86: i got same problem under 8.04, i don't know if i got rtl8186 or not
[17:49] <Starnestommy> trebnoj: ubot3` not ubotu
[17:49] <Starnestommy> *ubottu
[17:49] <grobda24> Rawk02 ... it doesn't like you ? :P You should probably provide the specific behaviour.
[17:49] <uvok> anirudh0: Theres a long chatlog as onliest result, I guess you meant that?
[17:49] <flying_greg> filo86: i think under ubuntu forums there is a fix for the rtl8186
[17:49] <eyes`only> flying_greg: how about gnome-nettools
[17:49] <STSX> Kuwanger: So did you fix your problem?
[17:50] <eyes`only> flying_greg: err gnome-nettool, sorry
[17:50] <Rawk02> STSX: if i just manual edit them to match should that take care of it?
[17:50] <flying_greg> eyes`only: i'll have to jump off here and reboot back into ubuntu - what should i look for?
[17:51] <STSX> Rawk02: That could be a bit dangerous if you don't have experience with them... how about pastebin the exact contents of both those files before you change them?
[17:51] <Kuwanger> STSX: Not yet, but I think I found the answer.  Apparently, the kernel sends events to hal, hal sends events to gnome/kde, and gnome/kde mounts the cd-rom.
[17:51] <eyes`only> well nettool is an app to test pings and tracerts and the like, see if you can select your eth0 and do any of that
[17:51] <russo79> Hi
[17:51] <flying_greg> eyes`only: yeah i can't ping out
[17:52] <Kuwanger> STSX: Since I'm not using gnome/kde, I'm not seeing automount behavior.  However, there's something called ivman which does the same job.
[17:52] <eyes`only> can you ping your router?
[17:52] <harushimo> did anyone I have problems installing Hardy
[17:52] <Noeve> Morning. I'm having some problems with my webcam under Hardy, which isn't detected. I'm on a HP Pavilion dv9000. Most people seem to say their webcam works with V2LC but I'm not getting it detected under either Skype or Ekigo.
[17:52] <STSX> Kuwanger: Interesting--and did you find a way to monitor when a kernel event occurs, like inserting your CD?
[17:52] <Rawk02> hosts:
[17:52] <Rawk02> <IP_ADDRESS> localhost
[17:52] <Rawk02> <IP_ADDRESS> zach-desktop.mshome
[17:52] <Rawk02> # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
[17:52] <Rawk02> ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
[17:52] <FloodBot3> Rawk02: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:52] <Rawk02> fe00::0 ip6-localnet
[17:52] <harushimo> I can't get it to work
[17:52] <handjob> hi i bearly can see the text...i need help - i am wrighting from xubuntu terminal failsafe etc-the reason is i set too high resolution and i can't see anything from normal session.how can i fix it.help plz
[17:52] <flying_greg> eyes`only:  i think so, i'll jump off and try
[17:52] <Kuwanger> STSX: Not directly, no. :/  Dmesg helps, though.
[17:52] <eyes`only> ok
[17:52] <xxSimxx> Hi, i have a probleme with Xubuntu when i run it "live or "install"... I have the Busybox in my face
[17:52] <xxSimxx> why?
[17:52] <STSX> Rawk02: Please pastebin the contents to paste.ubuntu.com :)
[17:53] <flying_greg> b back in a few
[17:53] <eyes`only> if you can ping the router, your prob isn't with ubuntu :)
[17:53] <arch> hi
[17:53] <Rawk02> oops
[17:53] <Rawk02> ok it is on pastbin
[17:53] <flying_greg> i hope i can't then - because i am really scratching my head - i can use router through windows - which i am doing now
[17:54] <handjob> thx 4 help...
[17:54] <arch> anyone have any experience with the pcsx PSX emulator
[17:54] <eyes`only> make sure you ping IP not domain name
[17:54] <STSX> Rawk02: OK... how about the URL so I can see it?
[17:54] <Rawk02> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16211/
[17:55] <eyes`only> like ping <IP_ADDRESS> (google)
[17:55] <harushimo> I keep on getting a buffer i/o error when I'm install trying to install Hardy heron
[17:55] <flying_greg> come to think of it...i can't even local portal through firefox to router
[17:55] <harushimo> what's the best solution
[17:55] <eyes`only> oops ping <IP_ADDRESS> (google)
[17:55] <SuN13> how to i edit grub to include xp 64 that is located on a first partition of another disk? already have option to boot to xp32 on same disk...do i just change the disk value?
[17:55] <Rawk02> STSX: if i am looking at it right the .mshome should be what the domain name is correct?
[17:55] <xxSimxx> Hi, i have a probleme with Xubuntu when i run it "live or "install"... I have the Busybox in my face
[17:55] <flying_greg> so...no i can't ping router
[17:55] <Flannel> SuN13: That'll work, yeah.
[17:56] <arch> anyone have experience here with ubuntu x64 pcsx
[17:56] <SuN13> flannel: dsk starts from 0 and partition starts from 1 ?
[17:56] <eyes`only> flying_greg: does 'route' give any feedback?
[17:56] <STSX> Rawk02: Yes I believe all you need to do is edit the hostname file to include your "mshome" domain too, so it should be "zach-desktop.mshome". Do you know how to edit the hostname file?
[17:56] <arch> error code here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16213/
[17:56] <[LMJ]> thanks jrib, that's solve my problem
[17:56] <flying_greg> it just keeps sending packets but no return
[17:57] <Yan3> My Mouse-Cursor moves to the corners when I focus a new window. How can I disable this?
[17:57] <Rawk02> STSX: should just be a simple sudo gedit right?
[17:57] <arch> Yan3: Hold on, let me check something for you. It should work.
[17:57] <Flannel> SuN13: No, they both start from 0
[17:58] <Mx60> Hi everybody, got a little problem, really boring. I got the 8.04 cd, and when i try to install it, or to boot on the livecd, it waits a few minutes on the ubuntu loading screen, and then comes the busybox, without any error message.
[17:58] <Mx60> Any idea ? =s
[17:58] <STSX> Rawk02: Actually should be "gksudo gedit /etc/hostname", but to be on the safe side, you might want to backup that file first.
[17:58] <Dasmoover> can anyone help me setup dualview with my nvidia 8400 GS?
[17:58] <Flannel> !hostname | Rawk02
[17:58] <ubot3`> Rawk02: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab
[17:58] <Noeve> Dasmoover, I suggest you install TwinView and work from there.
[17:58] <SuN13> flannel: what about the chainloader +1 option do i keep that the same?
[17:58] <Flannel> SuN13: yep
[17:58] <arch> Yan3: I don't exactly have an idea how to solve this.
[17:58] <STSX> Rawk02: Technically you need to use gksudo instead of sudo since gedit is a GUI app.
[17:58] <Kuwanger> STSX: Yep, testing it out, it seems to work.
[17:58] <SuN13> flannel: thanks gonna try now
[17:59] <Dasmoover> what is the oackage name?
[17:59] <STSX> Kuwanger: That's great--so what was your solution?
[17:59] <arch> hm whats with the red lines in the chat?
[17:59] <Kuwanger> STSX: Bascially, installing ivman and running it. :)
[17:59] <eyes`only> flying_greg: kinda sounds like a firewall issue, but i don't use the firewall so i don't know how to use it
[17:59] <Yan3> arch: ....seems to be a help for limited persons...
[18:00] <arch> ah
[18:00] <Dasmoover> what is th epackage name for twinview?
[18:00] <arch> any good programs for ripping ISOs from non-audio CDs?
[18:00] <Blizzara> arch, dd
[18:00] <flying_greg> eyes`only:  doh...i might have found it...my hosts is set to <IP_ADDRESS> and my homeportal shows .66
[18:00] <arch> dd?
[18:01] <Flannel> arch: yep
[18:01] <arch> DD is a program?
[18:01] <Blizzara> dd if=/dev/yourdvddrive of=/your/dir/something.iso
[18:01] <STSX> Kuwanger: Hmmmm... I'm just wondering why Ubuntu doesn't just come with that program by default? Seems like basic functionality they should incorporate....
[18:01] <arch> ohhh
[18:01] <Blizzara> yep, you probably have it already
[18:01] <Rawk02> STSX: ok got that now I look at my network setting> general has host name as zach-desktop.mshome now domain name is workgroup as it should be, question now is will the workgroup domain stick
[18:01] <eyes`only> flying_greg: sweet!
[18:02] <harushimo> did anyone get buffer i/o errors trying to install hardy heron
[18:02] <Flannel> arch: STSX There are already automount/volume manager things installed
[18:02] <flying_greg> i'll jump off and try to fix the hosts file - brb
[18:02] <Flannel> arch: er, ignore that last one.
[18:02] <eyes`only> STSX: I use sudo gedit all the time :)
[18:02] <Mx60> Hi everybody, got a little problem, really boring. I got the 8.04 cd, and when i try to install it, or to boot on the livecd, it waits a few minutes on the ubuntu loading screen, and then comes the busybox, without any error message.
[18:02] <Kuwanger> STSX: What Flannel said.  There's already automounters installed for most people who use kubuntu/ubuntu.  I'm the odd-ball that uses icewm. :)
[18:03] <STSX> Kuwanger: Oh I missed that part. :)
[18:04] <anirudh0> Kuwanger, i could'nt manage to configure ivman..though install's easy..try the automount program
[18:04] <anirudh0> Kuwanger, when you try to access a drive..say ls /mnt/cdrom, the drive will get mounted...config's much easier..forgot the details, google them up
[18:04] <STSX> eyes`only: gksudo sets up the correct environmental variables for gedit and other GUI apps--just because gedit is tolerant enough to be run with sudo doesn't mean you should. :)
[18:05] <Kuwanger> anirudh0: For me it was easy.  Run as root, run as user, and it just worked.
[18:05] <Kuwanger> anirudh0: But, if I have problems, I'll look into automount.
[18:05] <arch> MX60: Does your computer have a 32 or 64 bit processor
[18:05] <Mx60> 32bit
[18:05] <STSX> Flannel: BTW thanks for that bot info about hostnames--I forgot about the command "hostname".
[18:05] <Mx60> (I would have take another release in the 64 bit case)
[18:05] <arch> Mx60: Hold on for a minute...
[18:06] <anirudh0> Kuwanger, oh..good for you..but I was;nt talking about debs
[18:06] <arch> Mx60: Get a CD-R and use this iso: http://mirrors.gigenet.com/ubuntu/hardy/ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso
[18:06] <Mx60> arch > Thanks you're the first one answering me x)
[18:06] <STSX> Rawk02: Yes, the domain should stick at this point. Try rebooting if you want to check.
[18:07] <Kuwanger> anirudh0: Uh huh...  What package is automount in?
[18:07] <arch> Mx60: Welcome. Just an alternative install CD that dosent use live. Pretty easy to get through, just installed through it yesterday
[18:07] <Rawk02> STSX: that was the weird part, it wouldn't leave when reboot, just at random times through the day
[18:07] <Mx60> Huh... what do you mean ?
[18:07] <harushimo> is there alternative install cd for 64-bit
[18:07] <Mx60> I should get another install CD?
[18:08] <Mx60> A different version ?
[18:08] <arch> harushimo: Yes, there is
[18:08] <Mx60> harushimo > Yes of course
[18:08] <STSX> Rawk02: Strange things can happen when /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname do not agree exactly. :)
[18:08] <harushimo> I need it because I can't get the both burnt cd and cd I got from canonical to work
[18:08] <Josdell> Hi everyone . Um my Wired Connection isn't working. last time someon told me to modprobe something but i can't remember what it is, anyone know
[18:08] <arch> harushimo: I used it. Just go to the install page and click 64 bit and check the alternate install CD. Find the nearest mirror and click Download. Done!
[18:09] <harushimo> what's the site
[18:09] <harushimo> the main ubuntu site
[18:09] <harushimo> ?
[18:09] <Rawk02> STSX: last question if my network domain is workgroup, should .mshome be changed to agree with that?
[18:09] <tasselhof> господа, а эта комната рускоязычна?
[18:09] <Flannel> harushimo: ubuntu.com

[18:10] <Rawk02> STSX: I have my home network set on the workgroup domain, should zach-desktop.mshome be changed to zach-desktop.workgroup?

[18:11] <harushimo> I can't get it to work
[18:11] <arch> I've tried PCSX. I can't get it to work.

[18:12] <STSX> Rawk02: "I have my home network set on the workgroup domain"--what do you mean? Where did you set this up? In Windows?
[18:12] <Josdell> I have a broadcom wired connection

[18:13] <ColdFingers> I am trying to remove the BRontok Virus from a WinDoze box using the Hardy LiveCD but I don't know how to find all the 44.3KB EXE files easily? Does anyone know how to search for EXE's of a certain size/date?

[18:13] <josspyker> hee did all the work for you
[18:13] <Slart> ColdFingers: find can search for files with a certain size
[18:13] <Josdell> thanks josspyker
[18:13] <Slart> ColdFingers: you'll have to read the man page for the syntax as I have never used that feature myself
[18:13] <arch> ColdFingers:Wow, brave soul. Trying to remove viruses using Ubuntu Live?
[18:14] <Rawk02> STSX: I have had them talking once, but can't get them to see each others network shares anymore
[18:14] <arch> ColdFingers: Well, in another Windows computer that would be easy to do, but other than that, I HAVE NO IDEA.
[18:14] <Jack_Sparrow> arch How far did you get with pcx2 ?
[18:15] <ColdFingers> I am having success deleting the little bastards one by one but there are about 73 exe named the same as the folder they are in spread all over the harddrive and I don't know how to make a script to find them all...!
[18:15] <Jack_Sparrow> ColdFingers Try clamav

[18:15] <Jack_Sparrow> !players
[18:15] <STSX> Rawk02: Then maybe yes, you should change it to be "zach-desktop.workgroup" then--use the "hostname" command though: sudo hostname zach-desktop.workgroup

[18:17] <Jack_Sparrow> julle there is no reason sudo cp should not work what is the actual command you are usintg
[18:18] <eyes`only_> ColdFingers: I did the same thing using FC9 live
[18:18] <ColdFingers> Slart: I am going to try what you suggested and I will get back to u..
[18:18] <Jack_Sparrow> ikar You can look in the list of supported hardware and see if it has support
[18:18] <julle> Jack_Sparrow: i think i solved it, i did a gksu nautilus instead
[18:18] <eyes`only_> I'd use Ubuntu, but FC9 allows you to create an actual partition for saving changes

[18:20] <mazikowski> Hi, I'm using 8.04 LTS 32bit and the latest version of Opera. I'm trying to get Flash to work (it does in Firefox) in Opera. I pointed it to ~/.mozilla/plugins and it found libflashplayer.so, but all flash content appears as a gray box in Opera. Can anybody help me?
[18:20] <arch> Anyone else here agree that Ubuntu beats Windows Vista by a longshot?
[18:20] <mazikowski> arch: yes
[18:20] <Jack_Sparrow> eyes`only_ One of many ways  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=9893
[18:20] <eyes`only_> Jack_Sparrow: is there an easy util for installing hardy live cd onto a usb stick like fc9?
[18:20] <Slart> mazikowski: I've seen others ask about this.. I haven't seen anyone able to answer though.. have you searched the forums?
[18:20] <swhitt> dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/cpp_4%3a4.2.3-1ubuntu5_i386.deb (--unpack)
[18:20] <arch> Mazikowski: Duh.
[18:21] <Jack_Sparrow> eyes`only_ like this  Make an iso on usb bootable http://jak-linux.org/tmp/iso2usb.sh
[18:21] <Rawk02> STSX: Nautilus does not want to open now
[18:21] <mazikowski> Slart: yes, but they all just say to make it use the .mozilla/plugins dir
[18:21] <harushimo> if I did a zero-fill of the drive, would buffer i/o error not come up
[18:21] <arch> mazikowski: Try installing the Gnash flash player.
[18:21] <STSX> Rawk02: Check if /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname match...
[18:21] <idefix_> it is when you realize you want to be a nerd that you're lost forever.. would it be possible to set an ubuntu alarm for when pixel x,y turns into a different colour?
[18:22] <Slart> mazikowski: well.. keep asking the channel.. someone might know what to do
[18:22] <mazikowski> Slart: I had no problem in 7.10, but when I reinstalled to 8.04, it didn't work
[18:22] <arch> Mazikowski: Go into terminal, type "sudo apt-get install gnash"
[18:22] <Rawk02> STSX: Trying, terminal wont even open...
[18:22] <etronik> Rehi all!  whats the most recommended way to remote access my ubuntu box from windows ?? besides VNC
[18:22] <eyes`only_> Jack_Sparrow: that doesnt include the persistent drive though, does it?
[18:22] <Jack_Sparrow> etronik ssh
[18:22] <Slart> idefix_: I don't think there's a finished tool for doing that.. but you might be able to write a short python script or something
[18:22] <arch> etronik: What?
[18:23] <etronik> with a GUI into X
[18:23] <Slart> etronik: ssh
[18:23] <whazilla> how do i findout witch device is the cdrom to umount  it ?
[18:23] <Slart> etronik: ah.. gui.. nevermind ssh then
[18:23] <whazilla> 8.04
[18:23] <Jack_Sparrow> eyes`only_ the livecd on usb does not need persistent mode and you can do just about anything from that point
[18:23] <glitsj16> mazikowski: have you seen and tried http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2008/05/ubuntu-tiphow-to-get-flash-working-in.html ? it's for Opera 9.27
[18:23] <legend2440> Rawk02: alt+f2 work?
[18:23] <crackaddict> any one who can help in patching wine ?
[18:23] <crackaddict> the wine room sucks and is quiet
[18:23] <eyes`only_> Jack_Sparrow: yes, but you can't save your changes!
[18:23] <Jack_Sparrow> crackaddict /join #winehq
[18:23] <DIL> if you have a 64 bit os you cannot install 32 bit applications true?
[18:24] <crackaddict> theres no one int here
[18:24] <Slart> DIL: wrong
[18:24] <Jack_Sparrow> eyes`only_ Actually you can if you create an extra partition on the stick
[18:24] <STSX> Rawk02: Sounds like something went seriously wrong--you may have to boot into recovery mode and manually edit those two files to make sure those domain entries exactly agree. You could use "sudo nano /etc/hosts" for example.
[18:24] <arch> crackaddict, justgoogleit.com
[18:24] <Henry_RHodes_III> still no wireless on the aspire
[18:24] <Henry_RHodes_III> I am realy trying
[18:24] <mDemocritus> etronik: you could run a connection to your x server over ssh.... but i doubt it'd be worth all the hassle. i'd just use vnc
[18:24] <Slart> DIL: wine is 32-bit and works nicely on 64-bit systems
[18:24] <Rawk02> STSX: Looking like it
[18:24] <eyes`only_> Jack_Sparrow: I tried... it made the whole stick look like one partition, i wasn't able to make another
[18:25] <Slart> DIL: just to mention one example
[18:25] <Henry_RHodes_III> mad wifi
[18:25] <josspyker> Henry_RHodes_III: chipset?
[18:25] <Jack_Sparrow> eyes`only_ ONce you have it on the stick, resize the existing partition are add another
[18:25] <swhitt> anyone have problems with installing cpp_4%3a4.2.3-1ubuntu5_i386.deb these days?
[18:25] <Henry_RHodes_III> broadcom ath
[18:25] <Jack_Sparrow> eyes`only_ And it should have created two partitions if you did it correctly
[18:26] <etronik> ok forget the freaking X client, going to the VNC route
[18:26] <josspyker> Henry_RHodes_III: http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/dists/hardy-cafuego/broadcom/
[18:26] <DIL> so what about he opposit 64 bit application on 32 bit os

[18:27] <arch> blaked and Jack_Sparrow: Lol
[18:27] <Xorothal> how can I make iptables save its config on shutdown and load the saved config on boot?
[18:27] <Henry_RHodes_III> I hat having to depend on that
[18:27] <blaked> !ops | DIL
[18:27] <Henry_RHodes_III> but thanks
[18:27] <jpds> blaked: he's gone
[18:27] <arch> oh nice
[18:27] <blaked> rofl i love snitching to the chanops
[18:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart no need to call ops when I am already here
[18:27] <arch> Wait, jack has mod status?
[18:27] <Slart> Jack_Sparrow: I have no idea who the ops are in here =)
[18:27] <Jack_Sparrow> You just wake everyone up
[18:27] <Henry_RHodes_III> I think this is the best os!!!!   If so, how?
[18:28] <josspyker> eboyjr: lol,use truecrypt
[18:28] <blaked> i wonder if all the chanops have like an alarm in their home that rings when somebody puts !ops
[18:28] <mazikowski> glitsj16: thanks, that looks like a winner :)
[18:28] <blaked> like in a fire station
[18:28] <eboyjr> thanks
[18:28] <Xorothal> put a . in front of the name
[18:28] <Jack_Sparrow> blaked Some do yes.. and it get annoying
[18:28] <arch> blked: LOL
[18:28] <eyes`only_> arch: as for windows vs ubuntu: if you have ALL the right hardware ubuntu wins IMO, but when you can't run compiz and also render your videos in xv because your vid driver isn't compatible (nvidia), well, windows has an advantage somewhere...
[18:28] <arch> blaked: LOL
[18:28] <jpds> eboyjr: tar it, and encrypt the tarball with gnupg
[18:29] <glitsj16> mazikowski: glad it worked :)
[18:29]  * DigitalVibe is running Ubuntu on his HP Pavillion 9650 laptop.
[18:29] <Slart> jpds: nice.. never used that before =)
[18:29] <arch> eyes`only_:Ya, it sucks without Compiz, I dunno what I'd do without it
[18:29] <[LMJ]> hello again, in my small C program "#include <iostream>" give me an error, Should I install something to get it work ?
[18:29] <DigitalVibe> i'm trying to get XP running in Qemu now, so it'd be the ultimate machine then :D
[18:30] <blaked> Jack_Sparrow: do you have an alarm?
[18:30] <m_newton> Hello! Any one know how to configure a wireless network on terminal???
[18:30] <Starnestommy> [LMJ]: what error?
[18:30] <DigitalVibe> ultimate as in "XP for development testing"
[18:30]  * arch waits patiently and watches Jack_sparrow intently
[18:30] <Jack_Sparrow> eyes`only_ 8000 nvidia's seem to be the only real porblem
[18:30] <Xorothal> [LMJ], sudo apt-get install build-essential
[18:30] <blaked> lolol build-essential
[18:30] <josspyker> m_newton: what is the problem
[18:30] <blaked> everyone should know that!
[18:30] <eyes`only_> arch: i can run compiz but then i have to render xvids and such in software mode, which looks like hell
[18:30] <jsooksom> hi
[18:30] <astro76> [LMJ]: isn't iostream c++ ?
[18:30] <eyes`only_> Jack_Sparrow: checking my nvidia card :)
[18:31] <Ashfire908> Is MySQL better than postgresql or vise versa?
[18:31] <arch> eyes`only_: Not for me. What graphics card do you run?
[18:31] <Slart> !best | Ashfire908
[18:31] <ubot3`> Ashfire908: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.
[18:31] <h4mx0r> would there be any reason for 60070udp port to be open on my machine?
[18:31] <cipher_nemo> greetings, I'm trying to install grub on a FAT32 partition where XP resides (I dual boot to Xubuntu and XP). Currently the boot partition is the FAT32 one, and the grub files reside on an ext3 one. Unfortunately, the ext3 one is on an SD card, and I want to move grub onto the FAT32 partition. Is this possible, or does grub need an ext or other Linux/*nix partition?
[18:31] <darrend> ssyhaoyaa2946
[18:31] <Jack_Sparrow> I will be lurking while I eat...  Please play nice
[18:31] <DigitalVibe> Ashfire908: postgre is generally considered more feature rich and flexible, but MySQL suits most people's needs.
 Well, i am trying to run the server, and i have a wireless connection, I dont know how to do it without a gui. I want to get ubuntu-desktop but i cant due to no internet! How do i find my wireless network?
[18:32] <Ashfire908> Slart, I said better not best :P
[18:32] <h4mx0r> cipher_nemo: any reason your using fat32 instead of ntfs?
[18:32] <josspyker> m_newton: phone
[18:32] <josspyker> moment
[18:32] <Slart> Ashfire908: =).. sorry.. I'll take back my !best.. I hope there is a !better factoid =)
 ?what?
[18:32] <Ashfire908> DigitalVibe, if a program supports both, which should I use? (I'm installing moodle and it wants to know which)
[18:32] <cipher_nemo> h4mx0r, not really, but I hear grub doesn't like to run on NTFS, correct? That fat32 partition is for XP only.
[18:32] <blaked> code is poetry?
[18:32] <arch> Jack_Sparrow: *little kid voice* K!
[18:33] <blaked> what does it mean when somebody says "code is poetry"?
[18:33] <DigitalVibe> Ashfire908: i've always used moodle with MySQL - purely because it's more widely supported
[18:33] <josspyker> m_newton: in terminal iwconfig
[18:33] <socr> when getting updates from the net, ubuntu saves those .deb's in disk and installs. Can I save these deb's somewhere else to use them later for a next install , like on a USB stick ? I'd have to adjust sources.list, I presume ...
[18:33] <Slart> blaked: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic... I hear those guys know all these questions =)
[18:33] <Slart> !aptoncd | socr
[18:33] <ubot3`> socr: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers
 i type iwconfig, then what
[18:34] <arch> socr: http://www.justfuckinggoogleit.com/search.pl?query=persistent+install
[18:34] <DigitalVibe> Ashfire908: it may be that performance is better with postgre as it does some tasks natively, where as MySQL may need to do more work... i'm not sure with moodle though, to be honest.
[18:34] <h4mx0r> cipher_nemo: that is completely untrue and your over complicating things :(
[18:34] <socr> thnx,
[18:34] <STSX> arch: Please watch you language, OK?
 on ubutnu, not the server, it gives me wlan0, eth0, lo, wmaster0
[18:34] <DigitalVibe> Ashfire908: moodle certainly works well enough with MySQL.
[18:35] <arch> STSX: K, it was just a website name
[18:35] <etronik> mDemocritus: you seggested VNC - doesn't that require an existing logged in session before connections are allowed ?
[18:35] <[LMJ]> arg astro76  i'm mixing C & C++ ? :-/
[18:35] <[LMJ]> what a mess
 I want wlan0, everything else is no wireless extensions.
[18:35] <astro76> [LMJ]: for c only you use stdio instead of iostream
[18:35] <cipher_nemo> h4mx0r, ah thanks for clearing that up :-)  I must have heard wrong. I can go to NTFS if needed, but FAT32 is already there. Is this possible with FAT32? If not, I guess I could resize the partition and add a small one for grub? What do you suggest?
[18:35] <durino> k
[18:35] <josspyker> m_newton: do you know the essid name
[18:36] <[LMJ]> ok astro76
[18:36] <mDemocritus> etronik: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC
 Yes
[18:36] <DigitalVibe> Ashfire908: have a llook at the feature comparison table here: http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-10878_11-1050671.html
[18:36] <socr> arch: I prefer interpersonal communications, however linited on the net,  above google.
[18:36] <h4mx0r> cipher_nemo: its all possible just go and do it, but the problem is what are you doing with an ssd card? do you perhaps mean a solid state hard drive?
[18:36] <josspyker> m_newton: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "your name"
[18:36] <mDemocritus> etronik: "With tightvnc server or with configuration of GDM you will have a separate session."
[18:37] <Jack_Sparrow> cipher_nemo You can do it with fat32 with no problems
[18:37] <etronik> mDemocritus: having a look, thanks
[18:38] <cipher_nemo> h4mx0r, Nope, I have an Asus Eee PC running Xubuntu and XP. I have XP on the internal 4GB SSD, and Xubuntu running on a 16GB SD card (15MB/sec)
[18:38] <eboyjr> jpds: I still want to be able to open the files inside the folder without it going into /tmp
[18:38] <cipher_nemo> Jack_Sparrow, thanks. Do I just use grub-install command?
[18:39] <h4mx0r> cipher_nemo: have you ever considered using virtualbox?
[18:39] <Josdell> ting up my wired connection, it's not on or anything, how do I bring it back up, its a broadcom(yikes)
[18:39] <cipher_nemo> h4mx0r, never heard of it.
 srry my internet connection was lost
[18:40] <h4mx0r> cipher_nemo: it can emulate other systems on your own at a very low level, you can merge the desktops together and even do fancy compiz effects with it going its rather nice
I am m_newton
[18:40] <cipher_nemo> h4mx0r, the system works fine as is, but the reason I want grub on the SSD is so that I can swap SD cards when I want instead of being forced to have the SD card with Xubuntu always in to boot.
[18:40] <STSX> h4mx0r: I've used VirtualBox and unless you really need it, it can add another layer of complication (and thus problems).
 I know the essid
[18:41] <josspyker> mac_: ok
[18:41] <Josdell> hey guys i need help bringing back up my wired connection, its not on or anything
[18:41] <Josdell> its a broadcom
[18:41] <h4mx0r> cipher: you might have to change the boot order of devices perhaps
[18:41] <josspyker> mac_: did you type in terminal sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "your name"
[18:41] <eyes`only_> Jack_Sparrow: Nvidia Go5200
[18:41] <eyes`only_> arch: Nvidia Go5200
[18:41] <idefix_> python is standard equipment for any ubuntu user
 no, let me try, see what it does
[18:42] <cipher_nemo> h4mx0r, why would I want that? I don't want to emulate like with vmware. I want two, isolated operating systems. XP for games, and Xubuntu for development.
[18:42] <eyes`only_> grr wireless dropped
[18:42] <eyes`only_> as I was saying, Nvidia Go5200. Can't use anything but software rendering for video when using Compiz
[18:42] <Xorothal> cipher_nemo, games? on an eee?
[18:42] <josspyker> mac_: are you using wep/wpa
 I did, it didnt ask me for the passwd to network though
[18:42] <eyes`only>  grr wireless dropped
[18:42] <eyes`only>  as I was saying, Nvidia Go5200. Can't use anything but software rendering for video when using Compiz
[18:43] <blaked> what ssh client do you guys use on windows?
 that may be because the passwd is already stored on my computer

[18:43] <Oli```> PuTTY ftw, blaked
[18:43] <cipher_nemo> Xorothal, yup, Diablo 2, Darkstone, Baulder's Gate 1/2 all work great on slower hardware, especially with Intel dev drivers to emulate 800x600 or 1024x768 resolutions. It works great.
[18:43] <blaked> im using securecrt now, it seems alright
[18:43] <Slart> moshe: downloads in firefox?
[18:43] <arch> eyes_`only: Laptop, right?
[18:43] <mohkohn> goodnight
[18:44] <eyes`only> arch: yep, goXXXX are mobile
[18:44] <swhitt> I can't install anything, I keep on getting 'files list for package `libtext-wrapi18n-perl' is missing final newline. Does anyone know what I can do?
[18:44] <h4mx0r> moshe: which downloads? firefox downloads? stop asking about ubuntu and ask firefox peoples
[18:44] <cipher_nemo> Xorothal, even the old GTA2 is smooth, lol
[18:44] <Xorothal> lol
[18:44] <cipher_nemo> I save the newer games like LOTRO and Oblivion for my desktop PC ;-)
[18:44] <Henry_RHodes_III> wrong firmware
[18:44] <julle_> What is Busybox, i tried to installed Hardy and got to some built-in shell?!
[18:44] <Henry_RHodes_III> I have 63
[18:44] <Henry_RHodes_III> I hope this gets fixed
[18:44] <arch> eyes_`only: I figured. Ya, i heard Go____ cards have probs with Compiz. Stupid graphics errors and seemingly meaningless OS's...
[18:44] <moshe> yes,Slart, the d/l's go to /tmp and I am unable to see them in my /tmp dir. Need to send them to /documents so I can save them to external hdd
[18:44] <Henry_RHodes_III> for everynes sake
[18:45] <Starnestommy> julle_: does "initramfs" show up anywhere?
[18:45] <javagamer> I have quite a problem.  My CPU appeared to be overheating, so I checked the stock cooler.  When I discovered it was loose I decided to remove it and put it on properly.  I got it to fir nicely, but now I can't even finish booting before the computer shuts off (presumably because it thinks the CPU is over 100C).  I have the cover off and I can touch the heatsink, but the CPU thinks it's overheating.  What could I have done wrong?
[18:45] <h4mx0r> eyes`only: your supposed to execute a script to turn off compiz when ever you run certain programs then enable it again when they exit
[18:45] <Slart> moshe: I think it's a setting in firefox.. not ubuntu.. check in firefox.. edit menu, preferences.. main tab
[18:45] <Henry_RHodes_III> it would be a good idea to do it for newbis like me that are comming from novell netware or vista
[18:45] <arch> Well, my question still haznt been answered, and i think nobody has any exp with PCSX, so im out
[18:45] <Oli```> javagamer: does your BIOS have a hardware section.. That should tell you the temps
[18:45] <moshe> Slart, will try that....thx
[18:45] <cipher_nemo> javagamer, possibly not seated the heatsink properly? Did you use thermal paste, etc.?
[18:45] <Slart> moshe: you're welcome
[18:45] <julle_> Starnestommy: yes it does
[18:46] <eyes`only> h4mx0r: well yeah there's an idea, but the problem is that it does it when you view vids in FF as well, and manually exec'ing that script before every time i hit a page with a video would drive me nuts
[18:46] <h4mx0r> javagamer: what thermal paste did you use and is it touching properly? did you leave residue in the paste? try using rubbing alcohol to remove all of the stuff around the cpu then reapply the paste and reseat the fan
[18:46] <Starnestommy> julle_: is this after installing, or before?
[18:46] <blaked> lol @ javagamer
[18:46] <julle_> Starnestommy: before
[18:46] <javagamer> Oli: It's the BIOS that tells me the CPU is going over 100C
[18:46] <Xorothal> woah
[18:46] <Starnestommy> julle_: sounds like a bad cd
[18:46] <Daisuke_Laptop> blaked: if you can't say something helpful, be quiet.
[18:46] <h4mx0r> blaked: its a common problem same as a cable coming lose
[18:46] <Oli```> javagamer: in that case, stop booting up until you're sure the HSU's on properly. You don't want to knacker the CPU
[18:46] <julle_> Starnestommy: ahaa okey, i'll burn another one
[18:47] <cipher_nemo> javagamer, the motherboard thermal sensors might be out of whack as well... sometimes they fail quickly on cheap mobos
[18:47] <julle_> Starnestommy: Thank you!
[18:47] <Josdell> hey guys what module does the Broadcom Ethernet controller use?
[18:47] <h4mx0r> julle_: burn another what?
[18:47] <javagamer> I didn't reapply any thermal paste (I assumed what's on there already is enough, I don't have any thermal paste on hand)
[18:47] <mDemocritus> javagamer: the cpu is either overheating or the temp probe is messed up.... one or the other
[18:47] <Starnestommy> julle_: you may need to also download it again, or try the alternate cd
[18:47] <mDemocritus> javagamer: get some... it's pretty cheap... like 3-6 bucks
[18:47] <Henry_RHodes_III> whats a module is it liuke an nlm

[18:49] <WarPriest> I request some help. I'm new to ubuntu
[18:49] <WarPriest> :D
[18:49] <WarPriest> xD
[18:49] <Daisuke_Laptop> !ask | WarPriest
[18:49] <ubot3`> WarPriest: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[18:49] <Myrtti> Jaikkuli: somewhere in the root
[18:49] <astro76> Jaikkuli: everywhere besides /home
[18:49] <javagamer> The problem is it's sunday and there isn't anywhere nearby that sells thermal paste.  I'm checking if any of my freinds have any.  Would none-computer places (like a hardware store) sell thermal paste?
[18:49] <Chrysalis> what do you all use for a quick cfv md5 checksum check? i read about cksfv but not in the repos so just get cfv from the repos?
[18:49] <Henry_RHodes_III> I am still an elf
[18:49] <astro76> Jaikkuli: mostly /usr typically
[18:49] <cn28h> Anyone able to install ubuntu 8.04 in qemu?
[18:50] <Jaikkuli> astro76: which means i still should have a decent amount of space put away for the root then?
[18:50] <Flannel> Jaikkuli: It all goes in root, unless you tell some of it to go elsewhere (home is a good place to keep elsewhere).  All of your non-personal stuff will be stored inside of /, but in a variety of directories
[18:50] <Slart> javagamer: anywhere you can buy a processor I guess..
[18:50] <Jaikkuli> astro76: because i am not sure what is reasonable
[18:50] <cn28h> it fails  for me saying it can't find a cdrom drive
[18:50] <h4mx0r> javagamer: rubbing alcohol over the cpu removes old adhesive residue and quickly dries. The less water content the better don't worry about frying stuff because the water content has less electrons
[18:50] <moshe> Slart,that was the problem....thx
[18:50] <etronik> Can I create the xinetd.d dir under /etc ?? 8.04 does not have it by default
[18:50] <WarPriest> !ask How do I increase the resolution? The resolution goes up to only 800*600.
[18:50] <ubot3`> WarPriest: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[18:50] <WarPriest> D:
[18:50] <Jaikkuli> so if i am storing all my personal data in home.. how much would be reasonable to put aside for root?
[18:50] <Flannel> Jaikkuli: 10G /should/ be fine, 20G will definately be (for a standard desktop install, if you know better, give yourself more)
[18:50] <mDemocritus> javagamer: probably not... best wait till tomorrow. put down the computer and go play catch or something :P
[18:50] <Slart> moshe: ah.. nice
[18:50] <Jaikkuli> Flannel: ok
[18:50] <Starnestommy> WarPriest: don't prefix things with !ask, just ask
[18:50] <WarPriest> !ask How do I increase the resolution?
[18:51] <h4mx0r> javagamer: just be sure to apply new paste and use a plastic bag or similar for every step to make sure nothing mixes that shouldn't
[18:51] <WarPriest> oh
[18:51] <WarPriest> XD
[18:51] <Pulseaudio> Excuse me, but is this generally a good idea: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#Installing_Pulseaudio_Tools ?
[18:51] <Slart> javagamer: 10GB or so.. depends on how much programs you're going to install
[18:51] <Slart> !res | WarPriest

[18:51] <cipher_nemo> Trying to do a sudo grub-install on /dev/sda1 (internal SSD), but I'm getting a message that rm can't remove /boot/grub/stage1 for read-only reasons. Do I need to run this while booted to a LiveCD or other bootable Linux instead of the currently installed Xubuntu?
[18:51] <WarPriest> How do I increase my resolution. My monitor supports up to 1280*1024 but ubuntu goes up to 800*600.
[18:51] <mazikowski> I got flash working in opera, but i get this message: "ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:874:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave" and no sound, how might i go about fixing that?
[18:51] <Jaikkuli> also another thing.. should my root be primary and home partition logical?
[18:51] <Slart> javagamer: nevermind.. wrong person =)
[18:51] <Pulseaudio> !ask pulseaudio
[18:51] <ubot3`> Factoid ask pulseaudio not found
[18:51] <Pulseaudio> !pulseaudio
[18:52] <ubot3`> PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions
[18:52] <glitsj16> Pulseaudio: it sure helps if you have more than one sound card
[18:52] <Myrtti> Jaikkuli: that's totally up to your own preferences
[18:52] <RadarG1> hello everyone I was wondering if somebody can help me out. I use to have DammSmall Linux installed on an old 450MHz box and it worked fine. I have since upgraded to xubuntu 8.04 and now the NIC isnt working.
[18:52] <h4mx0r> javagamer: all hardware stores sell the stuff but if you like have to make some you could use baby powder and umm some sort of oil I remember reading about these people making systems out of old nintendo parts doing that but its sloppy work that wouldn't be a long term fix
[18:52] <Pulseaudio> glitsj16: what does? Pulseaudio or those Pulseaudio tools instructions?
[18:52] <glitsj16> Pulseaudio: both
[18:52] <Jaikkuli> Myrtti: i cannot remember it's complete meaning.. i learnt like 3 years ago, and was half asleep while listening
[18:52]  * WarPriest sigh
[18:52] <mDemocritus> h4mx0r: hardware stores sell CPU thermal paste?
[18:52] <Pulseaudio> glitsj16: I thought Pulseaudio was installed by default though
[18:53] <Pulseaudio> but what of the libflashsupport installation there?
[18:53] <Jaikkuli> Myrtti: i shall wiki it
[18:53] <glitsj16> Pulseaudio: it is, you'll have to start the daemon though
[18:53]  * WarPriest wants to increase resolution but cant. :[
[18:53] <RadarG1> anyone have any ideas to get the NIC working
[18:53] <Pulseaudio> hmm
[18:53] <Myrtti> Jaikkuli: I usually try to keep atleast /boot and swap and / in primary
[18:53] <Pulseaudio> glitsj16: I thought it was always on, replaying ESD as a sound mixer
[18:53] <astro76> Pulseaudio: it looks safe, although pulseaudio-* will install some uneeded dbg packages
[18:53] <javagamer> Thanks for all your help. I'm off to the local hardware store.
[18:53] <cipher_nemo> h4mx0r, thermal compound isn't oil and baby powder :-P   it's metal powder in a semi-liquid form
[18:53] <WarPriest> I hate 800*600.
[18:53] <astro76> Pulseaudio: this is the problem with ubuntuguide, it doesn't tell you why, just how
[18:54] <Slart> Myrtti: is there any difference in performance etc between using a logical and a primary partition?
[18:54] <SuN13> flannel: i couldnt get the grub to boot to the other os...i think i am missing something... edit the menu.lst in grub directory do i need to edit the device.map....this this os is on a separate disk not its ntloader as  boot loader...
[18:54] <WarPriest> Arctic Silver 5 ftw
[18:54] <Henry_RHodes_III> Cafuegos custom pakages had b43 and my lt has xb63
[18:54] <Pulseaudio> y'know, so I have audio everywhere. I'm worried about libflashsupport though, I heard it'll fix flash's audio but break things
[18:54] <brad0722> question: Why does my audio/video sometimes play at a snails pace and other times not? (it's not cpu related) I'm using hardy.
[18:54] <Myrtti> Slart: I haven't looked into it that much
[18:54] <cipher_nemo> Artic Silver 5 is my fav
[18:54] <Jaikkuli> Myrtti: does formatting have much point? is it ok to use ext3 for everything or?
[18:54] <cipher_nemo> Arctic*
[18:54] <kitche> brad0722: most likely a codec issue
[18:54] <Pulseaudio> well, here's to finding out
[18:54] <InvaderAmoto> WarPriest: what graphics card do you have? maybe it only supports that resolution
[18:54] <WarPriest> Ok guys (and/or gals), how do i increase my resolution to 1280*1024?
[18:54]  * Pulseaudio does it
[18:55] <WarPriest> i have a 7600gs
[18:55] <Daisuke_Laptop> AS5 is definitely my choice - my fiancee's ath64 x2 doesn't get above 30 under load :D
[18:55] <Henry_RHodes_III> I need an ether net cable too I am screwed
[18:55] <Flannel> SuN13: Just editing the menu.lst.  What error did it give?  Also, you can try a bunch of things by editing the lines inside of the grub menu, just hit 'e' and you'll get dropped to an editor  (useful for trial and error)
[18:55] <Slart> WarPriest: did you read the link that ubotu sent you?
[18:55] <Jaikkuli> Myrtti: i have used both at different times with no problems.. and i have no preference.. but is there anything important that i should know?
[18:55] <WarPriest> uhh
[18:55] <Myrtti> Jaikkuli: if you've got a huuuuuuuuuuuge partition, then format that to xfs, fsck can be run for it even if it's mounted, that makes the booting process a bit faster
[18:55] <glitsj16> Pulseaudio: have you seen (and tried) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 ?
[18:55] <axisys> is there a google desktop pkg for ubuntu repo? i see one in google's own site.. is that the preferred one to install should I choose to use google desktop ?
[18:55] <WarPriest> i didnt get it?
[18:55] <Pulseaudio> WarPriest: uhh, changing the resolution via System-Preferences didn't work?
[18:55] <Slart> !res | WarPriest

[18:55] <cipher_nemo> WarPriest, did you install NVIDIA restricted drivers or open source ones by default?
[18:55] <Pulseaudio> glitsj16: nope, new install here
[18:55] <moshe> WarPriest,what video brd,monitor do you have?
[18:55] <Jaikkuli> Myrtti: what is considered huge?
[18:55] <zetheroo> how do I get vncviewer working in hardy? what do I need to install?
[18:55] <InvaderAmoto> WarPriest: go to system admin, and hardware drivers
[18:55] <brad0722> kitche: what issue? Sometimes it will play fine and other times it crawls... very strange... also it doesn't matter *what player*, when its crawling it crawls in whatever I try and play it in
[18:56] <glitsj16> Pulseaudio: okay, it's worth it if you got some spare time to digest it all ..
[18:56] <Henry_RHodes_III> I saw  a video and I was too stupid to understand that
[18:56] <InvaderAmoto> Warpriest: then check off the driver thats listed there. you will need to reastart your computer after that.
[18:56] <Myrtti> Jaikkuli: My magic 8-ball says ">500G"
[18:56] <Pulseaudio> glitsj16: I will take a look at it, since that seems to fix flash audio
[18:56] <RadarG1> when I go into network settings It has point to point connection listed
[18:56] <kitche> brad0722: codec issue most likely the codecs you have installed are not meant to play the video/audio that it's playing
[18:56] <Myrtti> Jaikkuli: mutu-tieto
[18:56] <Slart> Jaikkuli: xfs is good for large files (I'd say 500MB and larger).. it's bad at deleting stuff. Ext3 is better when it comes to smaller files I think
[18:56] <Pulseaudio> (which is somewhat broken at the moment, I've come to understand
[18:56] <kitche> brad0722: or the codecs are not the best really
[18:56] <WarPriest> i installed teh nvidia drivers
[18:56] <Henry_RHodes_III> man this is like work
[18:56] <glitsj16> Pulseaudio: yes it does, basically install flash 10 beta from adobe and you're good
[18:57] <weeman13221> anyone in here familiar with ubuntu server
[18:57] <brad0722> kitche: if that was true, would it *sometimes work just fine*?
[18:57] <lealmape> hey
[18:57] <lealmape> somebody can help me?

[18:57] <Jaikkuli> Myrtti: :D okei
[18:57] <Henry_RHodes_III> ok
[18:57] <lealmape> OMG
[18:57] <InvaderAmoto> WarPriest: when u go to the change resolution app what are your choices?
[18:57] <Slart> lealmape: something about not being updated.. or packaging problems.. or security problems.. can't remember
[18:57] <lealmape> thank you
[18:57] <sarah_bear> hey guys, is there a good media player that displays the name of songs like itunes?
[18:58] <sarah_bear> i am streaming from a online radio station, any way to get it to display the song/artist like itunes does?
[18:58] <mr_daemon> Hello there.  Where did that go?
[18:58] <RAdams> I have two aim accounts on pidgin. Does anyone know a way to merge the duplicate contacts? #pidgin is dead >.>
[18:58] <Jaikkuli> Slart: hmm.. well i guess maybe ext3 then.. even though i do have some big files
[18:58] <Pulseaudio> WarPriest: go to applications->add/remove programs, search for nvidia
[18:58] <Slart> sarah_bear: amarok is considered nice by some people =)
[18:58] <fedagent> lol
[18:58] <InvaderAmoto> WarPriest: your monitor might not be detected properly

[18:58] <Pulseaudio> warpriest: and install nvidia x server settings
[18:58] <Slart> Jaikkuli: go with ext3.. it's the safe, middleroad
[18:58] <WarPriest> how does i do that?
[18:58] <sarah_bear> slart i have used amarok but it doesnt display titles of songs that are streaming from a website
[18:58] <sarah_bear> it is formate .aspx
[18:58] <mDemocritus> sarah_bear: amarok, audacious, and rhythmbox should do that
[18:58] <weeman13221> i asked if anyone is familiar with  server i have 2 drives runnin in my tower right now one has ubuntu and windows and is a personal drive the other is a ubuntu server drive that im trying to get ready for a file server but its not reading and ethernet drivers and i need to put a gui to it
[18:58] <Pulseaudio> WarPriest: go to applications->add/remove programs, search for nvidia and install nvidia x server settings module.
[18:59] <sarah_bear> ok mDemocritus let me try that
[18:59] <axisys> sarah_bear: mplayer may.. check with #mplayer
[18:59] <Henry_RHodes_III> O
[18:59] <Slart> sarah_bear: ah.. streaming songs.. hmm.. tried vlc? I think it's a streaming client originially
[18:59] <kitche> brad0722: yes depends on the video that is being played and such
