[10:12] <Frogzoo> nomanches: you need: acroread acroread-plugins mozilla-acroread              you probly are missing one
[10:12] <n30n> tar.gz i mean
[10:13] <Frogzoo> webmind: well when you insert an ubuntu cd, the update manager opens, so my guess is yes
[10:13] <neutrinomass> n30n: You can open them with 'tar xzf blah.tar.gz', or with Archive Manager (file-roller in gnome)
[10:16] <dsewnr> Could sb tell me how to exit this channel ?
[10:16] <BanskuZ>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[10:16] <BanskuZ> sorry
[10:16] <dsas> n30n: It's like a zip file in windows, you can just click on it to explore it and to unextract it just drag the folder inside it to the desktop
[10:16] <NET||abuse> dsewnr, just type in /part
[10:16] <Jimmy89> anyone know how i can make my wireless save a wep key to key index #2?
[10:16] <dsewnr> NET||abuse: Thx a lot : )
[10:16] <NET||abuse> Can anyone help me on how to go about using aes on ubuntu?
[10:17] <twopeak> is there anyone in here using Gaim with msn?
[10:17] <NET||abuse> i really need to get on my home network
[10:17] <snoops> yes twopeak
[10:17] <twopeak> snoops, did you do something special to make it work? Here I can't get it to work
[10:18] <XVampireX> epiphany is better than firefox?
[10:19] <dsas> XVampireX: That comes down to personal preference. I prefer epiphany.
[10:19] <XVampireX> dsas: Reasons?
[10:19] <XVampireX> Other than personal preference
[10:19] <Frogzoo> but firefox's extensions make firefox unbeatable
[10:20] <dsewnr> : )
[10:21] <XVampireX> right
[10:21] <dsas> XVampireX: Seems to be less memory usage, more integration with the desktop, has a great bookmarking system
[10:21] <snoops> twopeak.. nope I choose msn, entered my address and password and alias..
[10:21] <snoops> then repeated a few times..
[10:21] <snoops> all connected fine
[10:21] <XVampireX> dsas: I'll use epiphany in one condition
[10:21] <deeel> XVampireX: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EpiphanyDefaultBrowserThoughts
[10:21] <Madpilot> Frogzoo, Firefox's extensions prove that FF's programmers let a half-finish product out - complete browsers don't need extensions
[10:21] <XVampireX> It needs session saver
[10:22] <XVampireX> Something I can't live without
[10:22] <snoops> Madpilot you can't expect a small team of developers to provide every possible feature a user wants
[10:22] <webmind> Frogzoo, isn't this more like an autorun function, which also needs to have something on the cd ?
[10:22] <snoops> and if they did, it's be a completely bloated piece of software
[10:22] <Frogzoo> Madpilot: on the other hand, you can look at extensions as an open api - making ff customisable & extensible
[10:22] <webmind> Frogzoo, I'd simply like to be able to run qemu on cd's
[10:22] <XVampireX> I don't use many extensions, all I need is session saver
[10:23] <snoops> the web developer extension for firefox is invaluable for me as a web developer.. most users of firefox don't want that plugin because they'll never use it
[10:23] <kholerabbi> Can I tell wine to always acess the internet a perticular way - such as through a proxy - I wan it to use tor??
[10:24] <Frogzoo> XVampireX: tab saver, sage, down them all, infocon monitor, reveal - makes for a fairly full featured ff
[10:24] <XVampireX> i need session saver on epiphany, I just heard it has it by default, I'm about to install it.
[10:25] <dsas> XVampireX: Yeah it's got session saving as far as I remember. I usually just hibernate though, but if it crashes it does recover.
[10:25] <Madpilot> XVampireX, I think it does have. It's my secondary browser, after Opera, which has session saving, and always has...
[10:26] <snoops> is there a way to make nautilus only display the first ten(or a chosen number) of letters to display for the filename in the folder icon view?
[10:27] <bhundven> is the super key the windows key?
[10:27] <chavo> bhundven, yes
[10:27] <XVampireX> winkey
[10:27] <bhundven> and if I don't have a windows/super key, what whould I use?
[10:28] <znero> Windows normaly uses full cpu-power, wich keeps the cpu pretty hot even if it isnt used. but you can solve this problem with cpuidle. Does Linux also use full cpu-power? and if so, is there also an way to disable this?
[10:28] <Frogzoo> webmind: you mean you want to be able to run executables off a mounted cd? - that's easy, you just need the right file permissions
[10:28] <bhundven> znero, cpufreq
[10:29] <znero> bhundven: thanks
[10:29] <mjr> znero, I think ubuntu installs powernowd by default, which does dynamic frequency adjustments
[10:29] <mjr> (using the cpufreq api)
[10:29] <XVampireX> How do I hibernate?
[10:30] <bhundven> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MataroSessionsWorkshops/CPUFreqModuleLoading
[10:30] <webmind> Frogzoo, no
[10:30] <Locke> so i uninstalled x-chat, and now i waht to in stall it\
[10:30] <Locke> but it doesnt show up in syna-ptic
[10:30] <webmind> Frogzoo, I want to be able to use the cd as a device for qemu (qemu -cdrom /dev/hdc or something)
[10:31] <Locke> how deo in get it gack
[10:31] <Locke> back
[10:31] <Madpilot> Locke, XChat in Dapper has been moved to Universe - do you have the Universe repo enabled?
[10:31] <znero> so you think if powernowd already is installed, cpufreq isnt needed?
[10:31] <bhundven> znero, cpufreq is part of the kernel
[10:32] <bhundven> and powernowd is probably a program that utilizes cpufreq
[10:32] <Frogzoo> webmind: yep, that's no problem
[10:32] <bhundven> idk. I don't use cpufreq,
[10:32] <koni> hi
[10:32] <bhundven> yo
[10:32] <Frogzoo> webmind: as long as you're not trying to write to it...
[10:33] <enraGe> i would use emifreq + cpufreqd
[10:33] <mindspit> Hi all!i am tryning to install and see my qcam usb camera! modprobe quickcamI get this error : WARNING: Error inserting videodev (/lib/modules/2.6.15-23-686/kernel/drivers/media/video/videodev.ko): Operation not permitted FATAL: Error inserting quickcam (/lib/modules/2.6.15-23-686/kernel/drivers/usb/media/quickcam/quickcam.ko): Operation not permitted .............................What can i do?

[10:40] <wept> when oh when will that ati bug be fixed?
[10:40] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: for instance, a gtk2/qt3 app
[10:40] <cheti> i loast 140 gigs of data btw .. thanks to partition amgic .. wheni was trying to merge two partitions to make place for a 2 gig swap partition.
[10:40] <cheti> nota  very good swap
[10:40] <heyHowsITgoin> crimsun_: i have opened my gnome-session and they worked in there
[10:40] <crimsun_> wept: every time you ask, the date is delayed a month
[10:40] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: then they work fine.
[10:41] <scheuri> cheti: note to yourself: BAKCUP
[10:41] <wept> crimsun_: thats the spirit.
[10:41] <scheuri> BACKUP
[10:41] <scheuri> ;)
[10:41] <heyHowsITgoin> crimsun_: but i dont know what they are called in order to them my fluxbox file for them
[10:41] <bhundven> xgl still works for me after updating mesa
[10:41] <cheti> up my back is what i got

[10:41] <cheti> soldiering on though
[10:41] <heyHowsITgoin> crimsun_: but i dont know what they are called in order to theme* my fluxbox file for themes

[10:41] <mark105> scheuri: whats aptitude? i usually use apt-get
[10:41] <billgates> <-- wants to know how to work ubuntu
[10:41] <ddman> hello, I installed dapper and I have a problem with gnome network-admin. it says 'could not run su'. Anyone seen this?
[10:41] <Frogzoo> billgates: glad to see you made the switch
[10:41] <billgates> it was inevitable
[10:42] <bhundven> ddman, sudo apt-get install su
[10:42] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: they /should/ appear in xlsfonts.
[10:42] <scheuri> mark105: aptitude is another tool like apt-get...its just a bit "better" as it handeles certain dependecies better
[10:42] <ddman> su is installed
[10:42] <Frogzoo> !tell billgates about faq
[10:42] <Frogzoo> !tell billgates about docs
[10:42] <bhundven> ah cause su is not in your path
[10:42] <billgates> so ubunut rocks but ill be a convert if you guys can please tell me how to get wireless networking working ..
[10:42] <PHiSQuaRE> !tell billgates how much windows blows

[10:43] <Frogzoo> !tell billgates about resistance is useless
[10:43] <OrganStoff> Ratzilla, yes using Automatix
[10:43] <dsas> !automatix
[10:43] <billgates> !tell everyone im not resisting.. i jsut wnat access to the ent so i can use google proxy tools to bypass the company filters to look up pr0n

[10:43] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: the ttf fonts I have definitely appear
[10:44] <Ratzilla> scheurl: i dont think i have it installed correctly because when i go to sites such as youtube, it tells me to get the newest version
[10:44] <ddman> su is inthe path. it is only from gnome ssytem tools i get this error
[10:44] <dsas> hmm... automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. It has been reported that it may break your system, please see http://help.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation instead. For help with and discussion of Automatix please join #automatix.
[10:44] <billgates> right so i have a netgear pci 108mbps wg311t adapter
[10:44] <Madpilot> OrganStoff, please don't recommend that program
[10:44] <billgates> recognised as atho o network tools ..
[10:44] <CarlFK> it was in hoary/breezy/dapper-daily before I went on vacation, not it isn't in dapper
[10:44] <dsas> !tell Ratzilla about flash
[10:44] <OrganStoff> Madpilot, why not?
[10:44] <scheuri> Ratzilla: ah, that MIGHT be a whole other story...if they want version XY and Ubuntu comes with an older one...
[10:45] <mindspit> how can i find out what the linux kernel can see as usb devices? i want to see if it can recognize my usb pc camer
[10:45] <Madpilot> OrganStoff, it's broken far too many machines in it's day
[10:45] <Frogzoo> mindspit: lsusb
[10:45] <webmind> Frogzoo, well I generally don't write to cd's.. but I would I go about doing this ?
[10:45] <scheuri> Ratzilla: do you know other sites using flash? where you might test wether it works or not
[10:45] <n30n> What is a program that i can play WMV
[10:45] <bhundven> mindspit, lsusb

[10:45] <scheuri> n30n: VLC
[10:45] <koni> hi, anyone using ooo 2.0.2 and getting an error with macro to convert odt to pdf?

[10:46] <n30n> scheuri: i tried that. do i need to configure it?
[10:46] <scheuri> Ratzilla: oh, I see....funny...
[10:46] <scheuri> n30n: not as far as I know....
[10:46] <ddman> bhundven, su is in the path (which command finds it)
[10:46] <bhundven> ddman, idk
[10:46] <ddman> thanks anyway
[10:46] <Frogzoo> webmind: yes you can run executables from a cd - whether under linux or through qemu - I don't see any problem
[10:46] <n30n> i can't play ANY WMV's i tried multiples
[10:47] <scheuri> n30n: please visit wiki.ubuntu.com and searvh for RestrictedFormats
[10:47] <garryfre> !sound
[10:47] <ubotu> Help to fix issues with sound can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[10:47] <OrganStoff> lol hoary
[10:48] <n30n> scheuri: they are not restriced formats
[10:48] <ddman> 'could not run su' error in gnome-system-tools, anyone? pls?
[10:48] <scheuri> Ratzilla: cant say why that is...maybe a wrong symbolic link within firefox pointing to another version of flash
[10:48] <Frogzoo> OrganStoff: hoary is still 'supported'....
[10:48] <scheuri> n30n: under linux they definitively are...wmv is quite strict in its license
[10:48] <n30n> well. yeah.
[10:49] <n30n> scheuri: anyway the file plays but the video doesnt show up
[10:49] <scheuri> n30n: ah, you mean...its not covered within that article?
[10:49] <n30n> scheuri: it doesn't even open a screen where a video would go.
[10:49] <dsas> scheuri: wmv is covered in RestrictedFormats
[10:50] <scheuri> dsas: thanks
[10:50] <mindspit> lsusb returns --> " Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0c45:612f Microdia " --- is this how my web camera is told ?

[10:51] <billgates> oh and via ac97 is not working .. any clues?
[10:51] <billgates> its a pretty common model i thought
[10:51] <Frogzoo> !tell heyHowsITgoin about fonts
[10:51] <billgates> dont get any sound and totem doesnt laucnh for multimedia files.. exits with sound error
[10:51] <Frogzoo> heyHowsITgoin: hope that can help

[10:52] <ubotu> On Dapper, check you have all the necessary packages: dpkg -l libxine-extracodecs libdvdcss2 gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly totem-xine
[10:52] <scheuri> billgates: no, I am just asking as mp3 arent supported out of the box...
[10:52] <scheuri> ubotu speaka?????
[10:52] <ubotu> scheuri: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:53] <scheuri> a=s
[10:53] <billgates> oh i see
[10:53] <Frogzoo> billgates: you also want w32codecs
[10:53] <scheuri> ah, Frogzoo triggered the bot...jeezz...know I was amazed for a sec
[10:53] <koni> ooo 2.0.2 ok found out it is a bug, see http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=64633
[10:53] <dsas> billgates: I don't think DRM'd to hell usually will work even with the right codecs
[10:53] <viller> hi
[10:54] <viller> what apps do normal computer users need? web browser, e-mail client, instant messaging, multimedia, office? what more?
[10:54] <billgates> the synaptic package manager is a bit daunting
[10:54] <billgates> it pretty much says everything is installed
[10:55] <scheuri> viller: instant messaging?
[10:55] <billgates> how do we search for new stuff ?
[10:55] <dsas> billgates: you can use "add/remove programs" which should be in your menu
[10:55] <billgates> so it would ome under teh add programs? the synpatic online database i.e.
[10:55] <mindspit> what was your question?
[10:55] <n30n> scheuri: i did everything it said and still no help
[10:55] <viller> scheuri: gaim
[10:55] <Frogzoo> viller: open office? cd burner (k3b) shared calendar (evolution) off the top of my head
[10:55] <scheuri> n30n: sorry then
[10:56] <n30n> scheuri: well thanks anyway
[10:56] <dsas> billgates: I'm not sure what you mean
[10:56] <EmxBA> anyone? can you help me with ORINOCO PCMCIA wireless card
[10:56] <scheuri> viller: well, yes...but I wondered if that is actually needed for normal users
[10:56] <EmxBA> with usual kernel drivers it doesn't support scanning
[10:56] <EmxBA> Seveas, hi!
[10:56] <ddman> /msgchanservlist*ubuntu*
[10:57] <Frogzoo> billgates: synaptic has stuff sorted by category, & search function is extremely useful
[10:57] <EmxBA> ddman?
[10:57] <billgates> froogzoo: but ti thought synaptic was jsut to organize the stuff thats already on your system ... is there an add remove function ins ynaptic that i missed?
[10:57] <billgates> one that llows you to search for new stuff?
[10:58] <mindspit> is there a site that explains how to enable your usb web camera unter ubuntu ?
[10:58] <scheuri> mindspit: you may try wiki.ubuntu.com and search for "webcam"...
[10:59] <dsas> billgates: Synaptic is all about adding and removing. It automatically updates its database with what is available with Ubuntu  then you press in the checkbox next to the packages name
[10:59] <Hoxzer> is mindspit a girl?
[10:59] <EmxBA> anyone?
[10:59] <dsas> billgates: if the checkbox is green, it means it's already installed. If it's white, it's not.
[10:59] <Frogzoo> billgates: synaptic shows all the s/w in the repos - stuff that's installed is highlighted in the checkbox, to install addtnl s/w - click on the unmarket checkbox
[10:59] <EmxBA> does anyone have ORINOCO wireless card?
[10:59] <Frogzoo> mindspit: google
[11:00] <Frogzoo> !tell mindspit about webcam
[11:00] <billgates> oh ok thanks froogzoo

[11:02] <linav> How to auto mount my secondary HD every time i reboot
[11:02] <dsas> EmxBA: Compaq W200 (usb)
[11:03] <EmxBA> eyequeue: yes, i have problems with "normal" kernel drivers for ORINOCO PCMCIA wireless card, with those drivers i can't scan
[11:03] <scheuri> linav: add it to your file called /etc/fstab
[11:03] <EmxBA> dsas: that's not orinoco card!
[11:03] <eyequeue> linav, /etc/fstab
[11:03] <dsas> EmxBA: It uses the orinoco chipset
[11:03] <linav> ok thanks., let me try that
[11:03] <EmxBA> and can you scan around?
[11:03] <garryfre> Funny, I was checking why I had no sound and I ran lspci -v and noticed it said device only available to root.  I got sound now. It's a wonder I had the privelege to even touch the keyboard.
[11:03] <dsas> EmxBA: Sure
[11:03] <EmxBA> i suppose it uses ornioco drivers
[11:03] <linav> do u mean to say i need to mount my HD to /etc/fstab
[11:04] <eyequeue> linav, man 5 fstab for syntax
[11:04] <dsas> EmxBA: I had to install the drivers from cvs to even get it to work though
[11:04] <scheuri> linav: no, fstab is a file that tells the system what to mount to where and how...
[11:04] <EmxBA> which cvs?
[11:04] <francesjan> are there any greatful and helpful hearts outthere?thanx in advans
[11:04] <linav> Thanks guyz, will look into it
[11:04] <EmxBA> dsas, please help me. I think i need kismet drivers for orinoco
[11:04] <francesjan> its hp color laserjet 255l series
[11:04] <dsas> EmxBA: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Device/CompaqW200 is the tutorial that I used
[11:05] <dsas> EmxBA: Don't know anything about kismet though
[11:05] <garryfre> What happens when you try to setup the printer?
[11:05] <garryfre> !printers
[11:05] <ubotu> methinks printers is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters or http://www.linuxprinting.org
[11:05] <EmxBA> dsas: i suppos it can be used for setting up real orinoco card with orinoco chipset inside
[11:05] <dsas> EmxBA: Oh, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/OrinocoKismet may be more right
[11:05] <Jimmy89> anyone know how i can make my wireless save a wep key to key index #2?
[11:05] <bcc_> how can grub boot off a software raid partition before the modules for the raid are even loaded?
[11:05] <francesjan> its recognizes the printer but still doesnt prints
[11:05] <EmxBA> dsas: tnx, i appreciate your help
[11:05] <dsas> EmxBA: No problem
[11:06] <garryfre> You mean it actually is booting off a raid partition?
[11:06] <dsas> bcc_: I didn't think it could.
[11:06] <Frogzoo> webmind: I think I understand - you want to have a VM running, eg qemu, drop in say a live cd, & have the live cd boot? I think that should work
[11:07] <bcc_> i can't see how it's possible but i found a few docs explain that it's been done
[11:07] <Frogzoo> webmind: all you should need is the 'boot -d' option - to boot off the cd
[11:07] <bcc_> where /boot is actually a raid partition
[11:07] <eyequeue> maybe the same way it used to resolve and utilize an ntp server before it even loaded the wireless drivers?
[11:07] <kenguest> !faq
[11:07] <ubotu> faq is, like, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonQuestions
[11:08] <Ng> bcc_: it can depend on what kind of raid it is - if you're just doing simple mirroring with software raid then each of the disks contains a full, valid partition that grub can just read.
[11:08] <garryfre> Hmm, maybe grub has some rudimentary raid abilities. I remember having this warning of needing to avoid that when I was compiling slackware kernels.
[11:08] <bcc_> Ng: are you sure it's not doing the striping with md?
[11:08] <Frogzoo> webmind: boot -c /dev/cdrom
[11:08] <bcc_> Ng: that would actually make sense
[11:08] <webmind> Frogzoo, yes.. I can do it from the commandline.. no problem.. but I wonder if I can set it as a menu option, when I right click the CD
[11:08] <garryfre> Or maybe the bios has some of that ability.
[11:09] <Ng> bcc_: I would think coping with striping would be a lot harder, but I'm not especially sure
[11:09] <bcc_> Ng: i know that some hardware raids do striping with raid1
[11:09] <Frogzoo> webmind: sure, create a menu entry to that effect, or just put a link on the desktop
[11:09] <bcc_> Ng: but the software raid might be just writing to two locations
[11:10] <bcc_> Ng: in any case, the docs say to use fd file system type instead of 83, even for boot.
[11:10] <webmind> Frogzoo, link on the desktop would no apear in the 'right click cd menu' and I don't know how to add items to that menu
[11:10] <bcc_> Ng: i don't see how it can make any difference if you create and ext2 system on top of it
[11:10] <glick> excuse me what do i have to install to be able to play .mov files and .wmv files?
[11:10] <bcc_> and -> an
[11:10] <garryfre> dependson the striping. If its the type were the type where the data isn't spread accross the drives but each drive is a copy of the other, it might be able to boot by just using one of the drives.
[11:11] <garryfre> !restricted formats
[11:11] <ubotu> somebody said restricted formats was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats or '!codecs'
[11:11] <Ng> garryfre: that's not striping, that's mirroring, which does work, as I said earlier :)
[11:11] <kenguest> hmm. is there anything that comes with either 5.10 or 6.06 I can use to edit mp3 files? I need to trim some leadtime off and maybe join some of them together. What's the handiest tool/application to use?
[11:11] <eyequeue> !tell glick about RestrictedFormats
[11:11] <garryfre> oh yes, mirroring. hehe
[11:11] <Frogzoo> webmind: well it's doable - maybe google
[11:11] <glick> !restricted
[11:11] <ubotu> hmm... restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats. This page's intent is to enable you to play most non-free media formats that are not DRM encoded. Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats.
[11:11] <Ng> kenguest: gnusound, or "apt-cache search sound editor"
[11:11] <Ng> kenguest: there appear to be a few :)
[11:12] <kenguest> Ng: thanks :-)
[11:12] <webmind> Frogzoo, any sugestion for search terms? because  I've got no idea where to look
[11:12] <mindspit> yes i am a girl!
[11:13] <conmiweb> hi
[11:13] <mindspit> you fraks! you are fantastic! i never enjoyed so much eith an OS!
[11:13] <conmiweb> how works ubuntu on a acbook?
[11:13] <n30n> can mpg's be played on linux
[11:13] <kenguest> n30n: yes. totem etc
[11:13] <bhundven> conmiweb, like ubuntu
[11:14] <conmiweb> xD
[11:14] <bhundven> hehe
[11:14] <conmiweb> but, is all the hardware recognized?
[11:14] <mindspit> i cant install easycam2  with "sudo apt-get install --fix-broken easycam2 "
[11:14] <mindspit> it says iot depends on gcc-3.4
[11:14] <bhundven> conmiweb, I would try searching google and see if anyone in any of the fourms are having problems with their macbooks
[11:15] <bhundven> just a suggestion
[11:15] <conmiweb> mindspit sudo aptitude insall gcc-3.4
[11:15] <conmiweb> ok thanks bhundven
[11:15] <glick> i installed tha marillat package but i still can see .wmv files
[11:15] <glick> i can only hear the sound
[11:15] <Ng> mindspit: where are you trying to install it from? I don't see easycam in the ubuntu repositories
[11:16] <conmiweb> gclick, you have to install the multimedia w32 restricted codecs
[11:16] <conmiweb> download a .deb, from debian repositories, search for it in google
[11:16] <greenman7> hello has anyone setup postfix and hylafax on Ubuntu - the setup seems to miss out bits like creating the fax user (which I have done) but i now get X-Postfix; Command died with status 255: "/usr/bin/faxmail".
[11:16] <greenman7>     Command output: Password:faxmail: Login failed: 500 'PASS ': Syntax error,
[11:16] <greenman7> when I try and send a fax through the gateway
[11:16] <glick> conmiweb, i downloaded an installed th w32codecs
[11:17] <conmiweb> :O
[11:17] <conmiweb> so?:S
[11:17] <eyequeue> mindspit, an alleged camera program that requires a compiler be installed?  and not an official package?  to me that is highly suspect, exercise due caution
[11:17] <mindspit> i added  deb http://blognux.free.fr/debian unstable main
[11:17] <mindspit> on /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:17] <glick> what else do i need?
[11:17] <eyequeue> mindspit, do you have any reason to trust those people?
[11:18] <mindspit> yes :) they are french!
[11:18] <garryfre> hehe
[11:18] <Frogzoo> webmind: you should have no problem doing this through Apps -> Accessories -> Alacarte Menu Editor -> File -> New Entry
[11:18] <mindspit> i just my cam to work!
[11:19] <eyequeue> mindspit, you appear to be installing something very suspicious, security-wise, and it is from an untrusted source
[11:19] <_ClouD_> hi, i can connect to internet with a usb modem?
[11:19] <glick> ?
[11:19] <bcc_> "You will need to enable RAID support, and then set RAID-1 support to be compiled into the kernel (it cannot be a module if you want to boot from it)"
[11:19] <Ng> eyequeue: by the looks of it, it uses gcc to build webcam drivers, but I would have thought they'd all be in the kernel anyway
[11:19] <Frogzoo> _ClouD_: possibly
[11:19] <bcc_> how can this make sense?
[11:19] <Frogzoo> !tell _ClouD_ about hardware
[11:19] <bcc_> grub would need to read the kernel image from the raid before the kernel is even loaded
[11:20] <_ClouD_> Frogzoo what i need to do it?
[11:20] <glick> anyone know how i can play my .wmv files?
[11:20] <mindspit> anyway i want to do it
[11:20] <Frogzoo> _ClouD_: it all depends if there's linux drivers for it
[11:20] <eyequeue> Ng, why would any app require a compiler ar RUNtime, nor compile time, if it doesn't carry a malicious payload?
[11:20] <eyequeue> s/nor/not/
[11:20] <scheuri> glick: have you already tried the wiki.ubuntu.com searching for restrictedformats?
[11:20] <scheuri> !tell glick about restricted
[11:21] <Ng> eyequeue: because it includes a bunch of webcam drivers, detects which one you have and compiles the driver for that camera. I'm not at all saying it's safe, but it does seem to be referred to a fair bit
[11:21] <Hoxzer> UBuntu UUUUB NUUUB uuub nuub noobtuntu ^^^wouldn't that be a good name for branch?
[11:21] <Frogzoo> eyequeue: it's a hack to resolve dependencies
[11:21] <glick> scheuri, yeah i installed all that stuff including the marillat packate
[11:21] <glick> package
[11:21] <idanimrod> clr
[11:21] <scheuri> glick...and how does it not work?
[11:21] <Frogzoo> Hoxzer: I prefer ubunut
[11:21] <eyequeue> Frogzoo, hack is the word, but i wouldn't say in the good sense myself

[11:24] <ranpha> eyequeue rambo....it's already created
[11:24] <bhundven> in the interum, you can type `swapon /dev/yourfs`
[11:24] <pokkie_laptop> hello all, i am currently in the process of upgrading to ubuntu 6, does anybody know if my current gnome settings/x-org configuration will be kept the same after the installation or do i have to set it up all over again?
[11:24] <Rambo3> ranpha: add it in fstab then
[11:24] <bhundven> but adding to the fstab is the best
[11:24] <idanimrod> good idea! never thought of it
[11:24] <scheuri> Aleks-: you need a cable between your router and the switch and then use the swith to connect the computers
[11:24] <idanimrod> thanx!

[11:25] <Aleks-> just windows have internet the linux pc dont have :(
[11:25] <Aleks-> whats the problem ...
[11:25] <scheuri> Aleks-: I am sorry...but you need to be more precise...
[11:25] <pd273> Aleks-: how is the IP settings on the windows box, is it to DHCP ?
[11:25] <scheuri> Aleks-: can you ping windows from linux? can you ping the router?
[11:25] <Aleks-> i dont have router

[11:26] <Aleks-> and the pc cable to the switch
[11:26] <pd273> connection looks good
[11:26] <Aleks-> it's PPPoE_1_32
[11:26] <Aleks-> Bridge connection
[11:26] <bhundven> Aleks-: those are 2 different technologies
[11:27] <pd273> Aleks on the linux box can you do $sudo mii-tool eth0, this will tell you if the network link is fine
[11:27] <glick> what the hell even vlc only plays the sound
[11:27] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: how many pc's are on the network?
[11:27] <Aleks-> 2
[11:27] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: can the windows pc connect to the internet?
[11:27] <ranpha> ramba3 it's already in fstab
[11:27] <Aleks-> yes
[11:27] <webmind> Frogzoo, thanks, except I don't have the 'file' in there ?
[11:27] <pd273> mii-tool should show you something like this eth0: autonegotiation failed, link ok
[11:27] <glick> damn cant i play my wmv files in ubuntu?
[11:28] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: can the linux pc ping the windows pc?
[11:28] <Aleks-> pd273: link ok
[11:28] <Aleks-> wait
[11:28] <Ng> glick: it may be that it's a very new wmv file which isn't supported yet
[11:28] <Aleks-> yes
[11:28] <Aleks-> pokkie_laptop: yes
[11:28] <glick> Ng, naw these are old wmv files
[11:28] <Aleks-> also linux pc ping and the adsl modem
[11:28] <pd273> are you using a dhcp server to get the IP configured on the Windows machine Aleks-
[11:28] <AMCDeathKnight> I want to leave it apt-getting alot of stuff, while I sleeep, but it keep asking me do I want to accept, is there something I can do to say always press y?
[11:28] <ranpha> ramba3 it's already in fstab
[11:28] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: ok, whats the ip of the linux pc, and ip of the windows pc?
[11:28] <Ng> glick: and you've installed the w32codecs package?
[11:29] <ranpha> rambo3 it's already in fstab
[11:29] <glick> Ng, yes
[11:29] <eyequeue> AMCDeathKnight, see the -d option
[11:29] <Aleks-> linux <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:29] <Aleks-> win
[11:29] <Aleks-> linux <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:29] <glick> i cant play any .mov files either
[11:29] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: ok, and the adsl modem is?
[11:29] <Aleks-> linux: <IP_ADDRESS> win:<IP_ADDRESS> modem: <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:29] <eyequeue> AMCDeathKnight, in man apt-get (it;s safer than -yes)
[11:29] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: ok
[11:29] <pd273> did you add entries in /etc/resolv.conf to show your DNS server
[11:29] <AMCDeathKnight> eyequeue: So whee do I put it
[11:30] <Aleks-> nono
[11:30] <Aleks-> no
[11:30] <eyequeue> AMCDeathKnight, man apt-get should explain syntax
[11:30] <Aleks-> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:30] <Aleks-> just it's in resolv.conf
[11:30] <AMCDeathKnight> k
[11:30] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: on the windows pc, you can setup internet connection sharing, that will allow your linux pc to connect through your windows pc to the internet
[11:30] <rambo3> ranpha, is it correct parition ?
[11:30] <Aleks-> i have to put my dns in it ?
[11:30] <Aleks-> pokkie_laptop i have just one ethernet card in my win pc
[11:30] <Aleks-> laptop
[11:31] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: yea, thats fine
[11:31] <Aleks-> but the linux pc is desktop pc ..

[11:32] <NET||abuse> why does ubuntu have php3 installed??
[11:32] <yme_> hi there,  having problems with my ubuntu dapper 64bit broadcom wifi fwcutter drivers. now gdm won't start unless I rmmod bcm59xx on recovery boot.
[11:32] <NET||abuse> i have php5/-cgi/-cli and various php5 extensions.. and then php3? :S
[11:32] <yme_> :(
[11:32] <chakra85> hello?
[11:33] <dsas> NET||abuse: It must be something you installed yourself, or that was installed long ago, php3 isn't even in dapper
[11:33] <AMCDeathKnight> I cant figure out where to place it in the command thou
[11:33] <rambo3> ranpha, can you post output of : free -m
[11:33] <NET||abuse> yme_, i had a strange on myself.. granted it was to do with my playing with Xgl. but my bcm48xx drivers were cacking up gdm
[11:33] <NET||abuse> but i just removed all the wacom interfaces that were superfluous to my setup...
[11:33] <NET||abuse> anmd re-enabled dri after this and everything seemed to settle down
[11:34] <ranpha> total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
[11:34] <ranpha> Mem:           361        323         37          0          7        174

[11:34] <ranpha> Swap:            0          0          0
[11:34] <chakra85> so, i have two boxes: winxp and ubuntu. if i share a music folder on my xp box, is there anyway to stream music to ubuntu?
[11:34] <dsas> !tell ranpha about pastebin
[11:34] <chakra85> i tried mounting the shares
[11:34] <NET||abuse> it still seems odd to me that xorg.conf changes would help it boot from a bcm driver failure,, or even that bcm driver failure caused the graphics system to fail?? weirdness
[11:35] <linav> when i try to run .avi file in totem with xine engine it closes itself every time
[11:35] <linav> why is it so
[11:35] <chakra85> but when i drag a .mp3 file into xmms or rythmbox or vlc it doesn't work
[11:35] <ranpha> rambo3 here is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d15682
[11:35] <yme_> NET||abuse, hmmm.... ok, lets check it out then...
[11:36] <blinky> hey guys
[11:36] <chakra85> hi
[11:36] <Jimmy89> anyone know how to set your wep key index, to index #2?
[11:37] <Matthewv> chakra85, you could use itunes and banshee
[11:37] <blinky> can someone help me with my taskbar? I closed the bottom one, and now when i open applications they dont appear in any of the taskbars for me to scroll through
[11:38] <blinky> even if i opened another one at the bottom
[11:38] <Matthewv> blinky, what do you mean by closed? removed it?
[11:38] <chakra85> mattew, is that the only way? (i tried rythmbox--it's supposed to have daap support but it didn't work)
[11:38] <chavo> blinky, you have to add the tasklist widet to the  panel
[11:38] <rambo3> ranpha, what was swap on dev/hda4 ?
[11:38] <blinky> Matthewv,  i clicked "delete this taskbar", because i wanted to put it up the top
[11:39] <blinky> chavo, thanks
[11:39] <mooey> hi, in alot of screenshots i see people with consoles / irssi etc in what appears to be "inside" the desktop, i mean its merged with the background -- how does one go about doing this? :)
[11:39] <chavo> np
[11:39] <chavo> mooey, you use a transparent terminal and remove the window border
[11:39] <ranpha> rambo3 there is no hda4 only have hd1 hd2 and then hd5 swap
[11:39] <rambo3> ranpha type : sudo mkswap /dev/hda5 && sudo swapon /dev/hda5
[11:40] <yme_> NET||abuse well, apart for the dri tings, I already removed all the wacom stuff.
[11:41] <Matthewv> chakra85, not saying its the only way, but definitely, imho the easiest
[11:41] <rambo3> or was it:  swapon -a    , tst both
[11:41] <mooey> chavo: how can i remove the window border from a specific window? (cant see it in gterm settings)
[11:41] <Matthewv> theoretically you should be able to play those files with any media player that supports gnome-vfs
[11:41] <ranpha> thanks rambo3 got my swap back ...now hope that freeze prblem goes away
[11:41] <rambo3> good to hear
[11:42] <chavo> mooey, I'm not sure if you can do that in gnome, maybe with devilspie
[11:42] <chakra85> Matthewv, thanks, i guess i'll try that.
[11:42] <yme_> how do you rmmod a module permanently - it seems like everytime I reboot it comes back to haunt me :';(
[11:42] <chakra85> bye
[11:42] <rambo3> yme_, blacklist it
[11:43] <yme_> how do I do that?
[11:43] <ranpha> btw whole other question does anybody know why when yu install vmware everthing is root??? with flight 7 this wasn't the case and i could start the problem as a normal user
[11:44] <rambo3> add it to blacklist /etc/modrprobe.d/blacklist

[11:49] <apokryphos> linav: check the FAQ
[11:49] <linav> apokryphos: which FAQ
[11:50] <yme_> rambo3: not sure I actually want to blacklist the broadcom drivers, the system boots all the way to root terminal (in recovery mode) with the bcm module, its just gdm that dies
[11:50] <apokryphos> linav: the one in the channel topic
[11:51] <apokryphos> linav: if you're convinced that you have the appropriate codecs set up as described there, then run totem from the terminal and see if you get any useful output
[11:51] <rambo3> yme_, thats what you asked,anyway  gdm doesnt start att all ?

[11:56] <acetech> Sambrista, thank you
[11:56] <jndisanz> hello
[11:56] <yme_> rambo3, yea I know, I changed my mind :P
[11:56] <yme_> gdm starts all the way to the mouse cursor and then crashes
[11:56] <delight> hi
[11:56] <rambo3> anuj, sudo fdisk -l
[11:57] <delight> yme_ did u play around with xgl and got an ati ?
[11:57] <anuj> ok
[11:57] <soundray> What's the command to get a full filename with path? Ie. I do 'cd $HOME/Desktop ; command t.svg' and command returns /home/soundray/Desktop/t.svg ?
[11:57] <rambo3> yme_, ok you can stop network if you want untill you get into gnome and start it from there
[11:57] <snotrag> hiya... xgl is a good topic... is there a link teaching how to use xgl with kde and intel 810 chipset?
[11:57] <delight> echo $HOME/Desktop
[11:58] <Sonderblade> is it possible to get ubuntu to, instead of using /etc/passwd and /etc/group for credentials, use an ldap server?
[11:58] <anuj> rambo3: but Am not able to retrive data
[11:58] <rambo3> yme_, you need to edit /etc/network/interfaces  , and remove wifi stuff what is you card named as eth0 , wlan0 , ra0 ?
[11:58] <usuario> ola
[11:59] <soundray> delight: what if there's a symbolic link in the path? Can I have that dereferenced somehow?
[11:59] <delight> snotrag xgl with kde is a no fun thing ... not really nice ... for xgl is a nice theme in the ubuntu wiki
[11:59] <snotrag> thx :)
[11:59] <yme_> delight, I play with it and have nvidia. It wasn't a problem till I tried out fwcutter with the .sh script to get the wifi working
[11:59] <yme_> rambo3, ok, I'll do that, and report back!
[12:00] <rambo3> jwe you might allso check /etc/rcX for fwcutter . and rm it
[12:00] <delight> yme_ i c ... u might want to use Networkmanager for wifi ... i know its userside but its intuitive working out of the box and wpa is easy going too ...
[12:01] <MrErnst> why did they use gnome-screensaver in ubu6?
[12:01] <MrErnst> how do i get xscreensaver instead of gnome-screensaver to run?
[12:01] <anuj> rambo3: how can i retrive data because i donot know the location where old file located
[12:01] <delight> hmmm, does somebody know what the command is gnome/ubuntu engages when u press the standby on the logout panel in gnome ?
[12:01] <rambo3> anuj, do you have working ubuntu ?
[12:02] <rambo3> or live cd
[12:02] <anuj> yes
[12:02] <yme_> delight, ya reckon? it wasn't working, which is why I started with the fwcutter
[12:02] <anuj> rambo3: yes
[12:02] <rambo3> then type in terminal sudo fdisk -l
[12:02] <soundray> delight: /etc/acpi/suspend.sh
[12:02] <delight> yme_ i c ... sorry
[12:02] <rambo3> and mount the partition or add it to fstab to get it on every boot
[12:02] <anuj> rambo3: no not live cd
[12:02] <delight> soundtray thnx
[12:03] <soundray> delight: /etc/acpi/sleep.sh rather
[12:03] <nightwalker> holas
[12:03] <delight> soundtray ... hmmm
[12:03] <delight> ok ;)
[12:03] <roker> hi all
[12:03] <yme_> grrr, still dying.
[12:03] <delight> soundtray: let me give it a try ... I need it because there is no switch in kde
[12:04] <MrErnst> ?
[12:04] <anuj> rambo3:  yes i type the command but i gave the partition detail
[12:04] <MrErnst> !screensaver
[12:04] <ubotu> MrErnst: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:05] <rambo3> anuj, ok so is it /dev/hda1 ? or what
[12:05] <anuj> rambo3: ok
[12:06] <Gullstad> Anyone here got a CNet 311 wireless card working in dapper?
[12:06] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: what chipset, and is it listed in !wireless?
[12:06] <anuj> rambo3, i dont know
[12:07] <delight> soundtray /etc/acpi/sleep.sh does not do anything ;)

[12:09] <burgermann> Hi. Just installed dapper drake and my USB mouse is running really slow, actually it lags quite a bit. However my touchpad and keyboard doesn't lag at all. When I unplug the usb mouse and plug it in again, the whole system lags and I need to reboot :S What's wrong?
[12:09] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: First topiclink?
[12:10] <yme_> rambo3, well, the blacklisting managed to get it booting.
[12:10] <yme_> now to fix wifi... :@
[12:10] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: yes, in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[12:11] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: if you could pastebin lspci, that would be helpful
[12:11] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: I'll check, thanks.
[12:11] <Hobbsee> yme_: what's the wifi problem?
, it sound like an irq conflict
[12:11] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: That could be a problem, considering that the computer is not online.
[12:11] <soundray> Snowfairy: wouldn't just saving all .deb files in /var/cache/apt/archives solve your problem?
[12:11] <anuj> rambo3, where to paste the output of fdisk
[12:12] <amr2> hi which gnome ver is on ubuntu
[12:12] <rambo3> !tell anuj about paste
[12:12] <burgermann> acetech, oh. Is there any way I can manage the irq settings?
[12:12] <soundray> Snowfairy: if you copy them back to that location, and they haven't changed in the repository, they won't be downloaded again.
[12:12] <acetech> burgermann, the best place to manage irq setting is in your bios
[12:12] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: okay, you can just run the command, and then tell me what it says - maybe something on the line of ethernet controller: blah blah blah or something
[12:12] <yme_> Hobbsee, 64bit, broadcom wifi 43xx, fwcutter borked my gdm, I blacklisted bcm43xx so now gdm works, but no wifi...
[12:12] <Hobbsee> anuj: please dont paste in here
[12:12] <Hobbsee> !broadcom
[12:12] <Snowfairy> soundray, I honestly don't know, that's why I'm asking if such a think is possible.  I just moved my home directory to another drive, realizing that meant I could format and reinstall ubuntu without losing user settings.
[12:12] <ubotu> well, broadcom is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25683 for a guide to setting up Broadcom network cards
[12:12] <Hobbsee> yme_: see ^
[12:13] <Snowfairy> soundray, okies :)  I believe that's doable :)
[12:13] <kemik> hmm
[12:13] <kemik> !uninstall
[12:13] <ubotu> kemik: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:13] <soundray> Snowfairy: you can run 'sudo apt-get autoclean' to make sure only packages that are actually installed are in the cache.
[12:13] <kemik> !remove ubuntu
[12:13] <ubotu> kemik: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:13] <burgermann> acetech, this laptop doesn't offer any bios to set things. At least not that I know of
[12:13] <apokryphos> !botabuse
[12:13] <ubotu> You can play with me in /msg or #debian-bots without being banned.
[12:13] <rambo3> yme_, dont forget to remove driver from blacklist , and remove that .sh script you installed
[12:13] <yme_> yea, saw that already. It's a guide for hoary 32bit using ndiswrapper....
[12:13] <acetech> burgerman, every pc should have a bios
[12:14] <soundray> kemik: what are you trying to do?
[12:14] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: Apperently Ubuntu dont support any CNet drivers, eaven though is the RaLink chipset
[12:14] <ompaul> kemik, install something else on the machine that will overwrite it
[12:14] <rambo3> yme_, are you using dhcp ?
[12:14] <yme_> yep
[12:14] <anuj> rambo3, i have pasted th output
[12:14] <kemik> ompaul: im dualbooting and dont wanna wreck my windows system
[12:14] <rambo3> anuj, on what page ?
[12:14] <Snowfairy> soundray, hm, that does seem like it'd work just fine, thanks! :)
[12:14] <kemik> so all i have todo is remove the linux entries from grub and remove the ubuntu partitions i guess
[12:14] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: which ralink chipset?  and just because a card isnt listed there, it doesnt mean it's not supported - it means it hasnt been tested
[12:15] <burgermann> acetech, yeh, but when the laptop boots, it doesn't show any setup key to enter the bios.. oddly enough
[12:15] <soundray> kemik: no, grub depends on files in your ubuntu root and won't work once you removed that.
[12:15] <kemik> or maybe i'll just install a fresh dapper copy over this crap of an update
[12:15] <Gullstad> RT2500 Chipset I think
[12:16] <kemik> soundray: mmh, i know so a fixmbr from the XP cd would be needed, but i dont have one at this place
[12:16] <soundray> kemik: that sounds like a better idea altogether.
[12:16] <dr3as> kemik: boot with windows cd, and choose repair console, then wirte fixboot or fixmbr.. dosnt rember
[12:16] <ompaul> kemik, so read how to remove grub http://www.ntcompatible.com/How_to_remove_GRUB_loader_t28242.html and use something like partition magic
[12:16] <anuj> rambo3, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15684
[12:16] <rambo3> i have my rt2561 wifi working just fine with wpa
[12:16] <kemik> "upgrading" just blows in linuc
[12:16] <kemik> linux
[12:16] <kemik> it never "just works" :/
[12:16] <kbrooks> hm
[12:16] <kbrooks> i have a queestion
[12:16] <acetech> burgerman, i would tap away at the del, f1, f3, f11, and f12 key when it is starting
[12:16] <kbrooks> i have a queestion
[12:16] <ompaul> kemik, it depends on where you get your software, mine "just works" 4 machines here that were upgraded
[12:17] <soundray> kemik: that's not exactly true -- you probably didn't follow upgrade advice...
[12:17] <acetech> maybe even f2
[12:17] <ompaul> kemik, one had flight 5 install on it
[12:17] <acetech> burgerman, also take a look at your manual
[12:17] <burgermann> acetech I'll try that. It's just odd because I had no trouble in 5.10 which I ran about an hour ago
[12:17] <kbrooks> how do i do a fresh reinstall from JUST a iso? i have NO blank cds
[12:17] <ompaul> kemik, if you have k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop installed  it should be sweet enough
[12:17] <apokryphos> kbrooks: /msg ubotu install
[12:17] <Lukian> how can I limit the width of a gnome panel, or more specifically stop it spanning both my monitors?
[12:17] <kemik> ompaul / soundray i followed the upgrade advice
[12:17] <kbrooks> apokryphos: ^^^
[12:18] <kemik> however it fu**ed my keyboard settings
[12:18] <kbrooks> apokryphos: look at what i said above
[12:18] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: if that's the case, and lspci shows it as a ralink rt2500 chipset, then see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/RalinkRT2500
[12:18] <kemik> and couldnt update nfs-common
[12:18] <burgermann> btw this Ubuntu Device Database, what exactly does that do?
[12:18] <soundray> kemik: both should be reasonably easy to fix.
[12:18] <rambo3> anuj, you installed new ubuntu over old one  , so i dont tnik you can get back your data
[12:18] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: lspci shows whitch chipset cards are using?
[12:18] <acetech> burgermann, only a thought of what it sounds like to me... i am not sure what else would cause it
[12:18] <kbrooks> apokryphos: well?
[12:18] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: yes
[12:18] <apokryphos> kbrooks: you got this problem by trying to upgrade? Did you upgrade properly?
[12:19] <burgermann> acetech: thx anyway :)
[12:19] <kemik> soundray: i guess, but a fresh install will do the trick and i dont have to bother with googling for an eternity
[12:19] <kbrooks> apokryphos: that isnt me, that is kemik
[12:19] <rambo3> !tell anuj about fstab
[12:19] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: I'll look into it. You probly will get me back here whining in a while.
[12:19] <apokryphos> whoop
[12:20] <anuj> rambo3, give me the command again. how to get what you want.
[12:20] <kbrooks> apokryphos: Did you LOOK at what  I said above? does the advice in !install apply to me
[12:20] <kbrooks> !install
[12:20] <ubotu> Installing Ubuntu? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation Installing software on Ubuntu? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingSoftware
[12:20] <apokryphos> kbrooks: I can't SEE what you said ABOVE
[12:20] <kemik> apokryphos: yes it just happened after the upgrade
[12:20] <apokryphos> kbrooks: you asked how to install from just the iso, that link helps you.
[12:20] <soundray> kbrooks: just look at that page, will you?
[12:21] <kemik> and it really sucks when @@@ doesnt work :X
[12:21] <kbrooks> soundray: i am
[12:21] <apokryphos> kemik: a stable -> stable upgrade on ubuntu is fully supported and really should just work
[12:21] <kemik> apokryphos: well, tell my computer that :/
[12:21] <rambo3> anuj read this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions?highlight=%28mount%29
[12:21] <apokryphos> kemik: my guess is that you didn't upgrade properly. How did you upgrade?
[12:21] <kemik> apt-get update
[12:21] <kemik> apt-get upgrade
[12:21] <kbrooks> soundray: i dont see the link?
[12:21] <kemik> sort of... did it a few weeks ago
[12:22] <apokryphos> kemik: did you have ubuntu-desktop installed?
[12:22] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: RT2400 / RT2460
[12:22] <kemik> never removed it ;)
[12:22] <kemik> (and yes, it was installed)
[12:22] <apokryphos> kemik: are you sure?
[12:22] <sexcopter8000m> hi, i've noticed that when i get updates through the update manager thing, the "changes" tab is always empty. are other people getting this?
[12:22] <apokryphos> kemik: many times it can be removed without you knowing it at all.
[12:22] <kemik> mmmh
[12:22] <anuj> thanks rambo3, am not sure, what has happened, i guess i wont be able to access the data.
[12:23] <kemik> well perhaps i'll just try to solve the xkb issue
[12:23] <anuj> am not able to fix it
[12:23] <kemik> or i'll reinstall
[12:23] <apokryphos> kemik: this is why it's so important that you read the guide to upgrading when you do
[12:23] <apokryphos> it's in the faq
[12:23] <kemik> apokryphos: i did read it on the wiki i think
[12:23] <kbrooks> kemik: you did not READ it
[12:24] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: check google - it seems to have some info on that chipset
[12:24] <kbrooks> kemik: you  did apt-get update, but not "apt-get dist-upgrade"
[12:24] <Jimmy89> how do i configure my wep key index, i need to get this working...
[12:24] <kbrooks> kemik: "apt-get upgrade" updates your system
[12:25] <apokryphos> kbrooks: and, just as importantly, you *have* to check that you have one of the respective metapackages installed
[12:25] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: I'll try the Ubuntu.Wiki =)
[12:25] <kbrooks> apokryphos: talking to me or kemik?
[12:25] <apokryphos> either
[12:25] <kemik> kbrooks: i followed the section "Upgrading by changing sources and the command line"
[12:25] <kbrooks> kemik: link please
[12:25] <kemik> kbrooks: and typed in " sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[12:26] <kemik> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades
[12:26] <apokryphos> kemik: but you didn't check that you had ubuntu-desktop installed first?
[12:26] <pigo> hi
[12:26] <apokryphos> kemik: which it explicitly mentions
[12:27] <kemik> lemme just download the iso and i'll reboot in ubuntu
[12:27] <apokryphos> so far 100% of upgrade problems I'd put down to not doing that. Should make that bold.
[12:28] <kemik> and maybe you could help me resolve the xbk issue
[12:28] <kbrooks> kemik: no
[12:28] <kbrooks> kemik: stop
[12:28] <kemik> apokryphos: well it was installed because if it isnt, other packages wouldnt try to remove it, right?
[12:28] <kemik> kbrooks: stop what ? :X downlaoding ?
[12:28] <apokryphos> kemik: they would
[12:29] <kemik> apokryphos: and apt-get would warn me???
[12:29] <kbrooks> kemik: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:29] <apokryphos> kemik: yes, but it's not always obvious
[12:29] <kbrooks> kemik: do this.
[12:29] <burgermann> Does anyone know if there is a Gnome alternativ to yaKuake?
[12:29] <kemik> kbrooks: doit now again?
[12:29] <kbrooks> kemik: yes
[12:29] <kemik> bbiab need to boot into ubuntu
[12:30] <brett_> hey guys, is there any way to align chat tabs to the left in kopete?
[12:30] <brett_> instead of top or bottom
[12:34] <kemik> here goes.. lets see if it works and i'll have to repent
[12:35] <brett_> can anyone help me with kopete?
[12:36] <Hobbsee> brett_: what about it?
[12:36] <Graig> last night my computer crashed, and i set it up again, what filesystem is the default for ubuntu? ext2 or 3?
[12:36] <dsas> Graig: ext3
[12:36] <Graig> ok, it looks like my old partition was ext2 for some reason.  i wonder if that's why it crashed?
[12:36] <brett_> hobbsee, i closed some toolbars, and i dont know how to get them back, i was also wondering if there is any way to make the tabs on the side instead of the top or bottom
[12:37] <Hobbsee> brett_: try ctrl+m
[12:37] <Graig> the amazing thing, it took about 7 minutes to reinstall. i was shocked lol.
[12:37] <Hobbsee> brett_: and/or settings, toolbars
[12:38] <Graig> and about 10-15 minutes to install about 30 programs.
[12:38] <rus> hi. I've got a hanging samba mount. Anyway to get it to come back to life?
[12:38] <brett_> Hobbsee, thanks. ctrl M should just about do it
[12:39] <brett_> Hobbsee, any idea about the tabs?
[12:40] <Hobbsee> brett_: none at all
[12:40] <fdelacruz> hi guys
[12:41] <fdelacruz> can I install snort on my ubuntu? or should I say does snort possible for my ubuntu
[12:41] <lukas_> hix
[12:42] <lukas_> update from breezy to dapper is a nightmare
[12:42] <Gullstad> Skal ut og jobbe. Snakkes :)
[12:42] <Ng> lukas_: it shouldn't be. what's up with it?
[12:42] <Ng> fdelacruz: yep, it's in universe
[12:42] <lukas_> Ng, i have some problems with tzdata
[12:42] <lukas_> libc6
[12:43] <lukas_> but it's fine now :)
[12:43] <lukas_> Gnome Dapper is great
[12:43] <fdelacruz> Ng universe in apt source list? but my connection is behind a proxy
[12:43] <fdelacruz> how can I use apt on a proxy network
[12:44] <eyequeue> set http_proxy
[12:44] <sudomania4> is there a command that will show me the host and port of my computer?
[12:46] <stephan__> hey
[12:46] <sudomania4> hey
[12:46] <sudomania4> is there a command that will show me the host and port of my computer?
[12:46] <EmxBA> join #edubuntu-bosnia
[12:46] <ompaul> sudomania4, there are 65536 ports on every computer, what they get used for depends, as for the host try "ifconfig"
[12:46] <Ng> fdelacruz: yes. apt can be configured to use a proxy, add this to /etc/apt/apt.conf: Acquire::http::Proxy "http://user:pass@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port/";

[12:47] <sudomania4> ompaul, thans, im trying to get gmpc to connect
[12:47] <fdelacruz> ng k thanks i will try that
[12:47] <Ng> manuel_: admittedly that script won't work on windows unless you install cygwin, but it will at least give you a list of URLs to grab
[12:47] <stephan__> im on dapper and trying to use azuereus but it wont pop up, it always stays hidden
[12:48] <kemik> aynoen know why i get : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15685
[12:48] <manuel_> Ng: can you give me more details? I am newbe
[12:48] <kemik> apokryphos:  , kbrooks , that's my 'issue'
[12:49] <Ng> manuel_: load up synaptic, find all the packages you want to install, right click on them and mark them for installation, then in the File menu is an option to create a download script. you can then take that to a windows machine, download all the URLs it contains, put them on a disc and take them back to the ubuntu machine and install them all (sudo dpkg -i /media/cdrom/*.deb  most likely)
[12:49] <apokryphos> kemik: you're going to have to be more descriptive. Where/when do you get that?
[12:49] <stephan__> can someone help me to get azuerurs to work
[12:50] <kemik> apokryphos:  just when i've logged into X a dialog with that sutff pop-up
[12:50] <kemik> apokryphos:   also i get that error when trying to configure my keyboard layout
[12:50] <desijays> when ever i try to use the apt command to download something from the internet it say "SUDO: APT: COMMAND NOT FOUND". what am i doing wrong?
[12:50] <manuel_> Ng: I will try...thank you
[12:50] <cyphase> manuel_: look into apt-zip
[12:51] <apokryphos> kemik: do you get that if you make a new user? Do you know what produces it? Is that straight after a dist-upgrade?
[12:51] <kemik> apokryphos:  yup, after upgrade
[12:51] <manuel_> cyphase: sorry, I don't understand where I have to look
[12:51] <kemik> apokryphos:  not tried creating a new user..
[12:51] <cyphase> manuel_: just do a search
[12:51] <apokryphos> desijays: apt, as practically all UNIX/Linux commands, is case-sensitive. APT is different to apt.
[12:51] <Mewshi> hi
[12:52] <apokryphos> kemik: does it stop you using your computer, or is it just a warning? Does it remove functionality?
[12:52] <void^> ..and there is no apt, just apt-get, apt-cache, etc
[12:52] <apokryphos> hi Mewshi
[12:52] <kemik> apokryphos:  it removes my keyboardlayout so i cant use swedish characters and i cant find the "AT" sign f.ex
[12:52] <dmoyne> hello ! ; is there a way to load a Ubuntu source of a sotfware though apt-get for compilation like it was possible with mandrake ?
[12:52] <manuel_> cyphase: please explain better
[12:52] <desijays> apokryphos: i tried "sudo apt -get install gnomebaker" it asks for the password and then says "sudo: apt: command not found"
[12:53] <apokryphos> kemik: does it work in a tty? Or when you go into X failsafe?
[12:53] <cyphase> manuel_: search the web for apt-zip
[12:53] <fiveiron> hey is there an updated way to get xgl installed in ubuntu?
[12:53] <cyphase> in a search engine
[12:53] <kemik> apokryphos:  the upgrade of nfs.common doesnt affect me at all (except a pesky warning) so thats no bother
[12:53] <apokryphos> desijays: it should be sudo apt-get install
[12:53] <fdelacruz> Ng I don't have apt.con instead apt.conf.d
[12:53] <manuel_> cyphase: ok then?
[12:53] <desijays> no space between apt and -get?
[12:53] <watergla1s> hi, i'm tryign to set up ssh server on my machine.. i follow the directions in the ubuntuguide under:  How to assign Hostname to local machine with dynamic IP using free DynDNS service and I have ssh setup but when i try to ssh into my machine, i get this error: ssh: connect to host nuky.homelinux.org port 22: Connection refused, can anyone help me understand where i have gone wrong with the setting here?
[12:53] <kemik> apokryphos:  doesnt work in the gnome.terminals ;)
[12:53] <apokryphos> desijays: also, you should use synaptic for installing packages. It'll be clearer.
[12:53] <apokryphos> desijays: that's right
[12:53] <kemik> i'll try the failsafe reboot option
[12:53] <kemik> bbiab
[12:54] <apokryphos> kemik: no, not reboot :P
[12:54] <cyphase> manuel_: it's what you're looking for, to install packages on a computer without net access
[12:54] <apokryphos> kemik: just ctrl+alt+f1
[12:54] <apokryphos> kemik: and alt+f7 to get back
[12:54] <desijays> thanks for the help apokryphos. the problem with synaptic is that is very extensive and i don't know which ones to choose..
[12:54] <kemik> apokryphos:  doesnt work :X
[12:54] <desijays> i should read some of the documents that specify the windows equivalents in linux
[12:54] <apokryphos> desijays: well, when installing gnomebaker, in synaptic select the...... gnomebaker package ;-)
[12:55] <dsas> desijays: You could use add/remove programs instead
[12:55] <apokryphos> desijays: check the FAQ for links on how to use Synaptic. It's good to use it :)
[12:55] <manuel_> cyphase: what is apt-zip? an archive? an application? I download it and then? sorry for the question but I am new
[12:55] <apokryphos> kemik: well, let me know how it goes with a new user.
[12:55] <stephan__> can someone help me to get azuerurs to work in dapper
[12:55] <cyphase> manuel_: did you look it up?
[12:56] <apokryphos> stephan__: /msg ubotu azureus
[12:56] <desijays> yea i'll do that now.. TY :)
[12:56] <wiking> hmm for some reason Xvnc is not working anymore since i've upgraded to dapper, anyone had this error as well?
[12:57] <manuel_> cyphase: I am looking for apt-zip... I need time :(
[12:57] <desijays> 1 more thing... i tried using gaim for my yahoo account. but i don't have an option to be invisible, like i do in yahoo messenger. am i overlooking something or is this feature really missing in gaim?
[12:58] <kemik> oh my
[12:58] <kemik> found the solution on launchpad
[12:58] <kemik> have to remove a lien in xorg.conf
[12:59] <manuel_> cyphase: I am downloading apt-zip...Can you explain,if you have time, in few words how I have to use it?
[12:59] <kemik> and.... it works..  @!
[12:59] <kemik>  too ;)
[12:59] <cyphase> manuel_: i don't know, i've never used it
[12:59] <cyphase> manuel_: i just know what it's for
[12:59] <kemik> apokryphos:  thx for the help anyway
[12:59] <rambo3>  allways wirked for me
[01:00] <manuel_> cyphase: thank you the same
[01:00] <cyphase> manuel_: your welcome
[01:00] <jenda> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a Travelmate 240. The LiveCD (Desktop CD) is extremely slow - it's been loading step 1 of the install for 30 minutes or more. Could this be caused by the speed of the CDROM drive only? Or must there be other causes?
[01:00] <apokryphos> kemik: if it works then it means that you have some settings screwed up in your old ~
[01:00] <kemik> had to remline "Option		"XkbVariant"	"nodelay""
[01:01] <apokryphos> ohh
[01:01] <kemik> apokryphos:  i can assure you, i never touched the keyboardsettings in xorg before
[01:01] <kbrooks> desijays: yes you have overlooked it
[01:01] <apokryphos> ok, cool :)
[01:01] <kemik> i have messed with the gfx- tho
[01:01] <desijays> so how do i make my self invisible kbrooks? i checked the options and everything...
[01:01] <kbrooks> i have a question
[01:01] <kbrooks> desijays: i'mn not sure
[01:02] <kemik> desijays:  invisible? isnt that superhuman powers possessed only by The Invisible Man!?
[01:02] <kbrooks> desijays: but i know its there for all protocols
[01:02] <kbrooks> kemik: be serious
[01:02] <kemik> sry
[01:02] <Krieger> doesnt support the ATI Driver OpenGL with the 9600 Card???
[01:02] <kbrooks> kemik: he wants to hide himself from users on yahoo IM
[01:02] <kemik> is there a page (i know i should google before asking this) for Ubuntu laptop compatibilty ?
[01:02] <kbrooks> !tell Krieger about ati
[01:02] <desijays> if thats the case, there must be an option for being invisible... but i can't find it anywhere.. even though the protocols may allow it...
[01:03] <kbrooks> !laptop
[01:03] <ubotu> laptop is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops or http://www.linux-laptop.net/ or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam, or tuxmobil.org
[01:03] <kbrooks> !tell kemik about laptop
[01:03] <rambo3> kemik, ask ubotu
[01:03] <Krieger> kbrooks, doesnt really work huh?
[01:03] <kbrooks> Krieger: try ati, not radeon
[01:03] <desijays> i'm thinking i'll have to tinker with the terminal to make the invisible thing work... !!!
[01:03] <Krieger> kbrooks, i installed xorg-driver-fglrx
[01:03] <kbrooks> desijays: you wont
[01:04] <kbrooks> desijays: let me FIND it.
[01:04] <stephan__> apokrypho, i got it kinda working...but i dont see a system tray icon in fluxbox or gnome
[01:04] <kemik> lets see if i can get the CDT to play in eclipse now
[01:04] <kbrooks> desijays: are y you scared of the terminal
[01:05] <void^> stephan__: use the version at http://azureus.sourceforge.net/index_CVS.php
[01:05] <Frogzoo> !tell kemik about laptops
[01:05] <Frogzoo> !tell kemik about laptop
[01:05] <kbrooks> desijays: it's in gaim 2, at least thats what i have
[01:05] <kemik> Frogzoo:  it's ok ;) already got it
[01:05] <ubuntu> fast question: i'm using a live ubuntu to try to rescue a partition and i want to install testdisk. it's not in the normal repository but in universe. what does it mean? how can i install it?
[01:05] <kemik> roger that rabbit and so on
[01:05] <kbrooks> desijays: a custom installed package
[01:06] <rohan> suppose i have both debian and a debian based distro (ubuntu in this case) installed, how do i setup grub that both the distro's kernels are identified and updated automatically ? right now i am setting one distros grub outside the debconf area and updating it manually . .any more elegant solution ?
[01:07] <Jimmy89> how can i configure my wep key index number, i need to save a wep key to index #2??
[01:07] <rambo3> ubuntu chroot into mounted partition and find /etc/apt/sources.list , uncomment the "#" lines for  multi and univers
[01:07] <a_l_e> ok, thanks rambo3!
[01:07] <bernier>  hi, i followed a tut to compile the new linux kernel and at the end while creating the .deb I got that error: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/708279
[01:07] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, what do you use to configure your security? i'm on an aes network,, havn't managed to connect yet? on hardwire for now
[01:08] <Jimmy89> what do you mean?
[01:08] <NET||abuse> well, i've looked at the tools on gnome and there's only an option for wep
[01:09] <Jimmy89> yeah, i need to somehow enter a wep key into index#2
[01:09] <NET||abuse> have you got the basic web key in there already though? defaulting to #1
[01:09] <Jimmy89> yes
[01:09] <alewyn> I'm a new user to ubuntu and need some help.
[01:09] <NET||abuse> if so tell me how? and i'll see maybe i can help
[01:10] <Matthewv> anyone know where the fspot database is stored? so i can back it up?
[01:10] <NET||abuse> also might help me get on track for my aes key
[01:10] <desijays> what do you mean by custom kbrooks? u mean i wont find it in the synaptic archives?
[01:10] <Jimmy89> what i mean is i have tried just putting the key#2, where it says wep key
[01:10] <Jimmy89> i don't know how to make it use index #2
[01:10] <Frogzoo> rohan: a shared /boot should be able to keep grub updated automatically, but you will have problems when each OS gives a kernel the same name
[01:10] <a_l_e> rambo3: i get uncommented the line about the universe repostiry, but the was no line for multi. now apt-get tells me that there is no repository for ppc
[01:10] <rambo3> locate *.db
[01:10] <a_l_e> rambo3: any idea?
[01:11] <rambo3> its backports
[01:11] <mp3guy> I need help with a 3gp file, I need to extract and convert the amr/samr audio track to mp3 or ogg or something, how can I do this?
[01:11] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, ahh, are you using the default internet properties applet?
[01:11] <Jimmy89> yeah network-admin or what ever the default is
[01:11] <rohan> Frogzoo: but then both would be listed as either ubuntu or debian, right ? I mean, if ubuntu's grub is in /boot, all kernels will be displayed as Ubuntu ?
[01:11] <Jimmy89> just the "networking" thing
[01:11] <rambo3> a_l_e, you can create your own line like this : deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[01:12] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, i think that tool is very basic, perhaps too basic for our needs
[01:12] <NET||abuse> gimme a moment
[01:12] <rambo3> a_l_e, it will add all ports needed
[01:13] <Jimmy89> net abuse: so you need to find a way to enter a wep key of a different index as well do you?
[01:13] <a_l_e> rambo3: W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper-backports/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_dapper-backports_main_binary-powerpc_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[01:13] <a_l_e> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper-backports/restricted Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_dapper-backports_restricted_binary-powerpc_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[01:13] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, not quite.. i need wpa encryption
[01:13] <NET||abuse> the aes type
[01:13] <Frogzoo> rohan: maybe you could chain from a grub which gives the ubuntu or debian option, to grub with options for each OS?
[01:14] <Jimmy89> net abuse: i think network-manager can do that
[01:14] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, try sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[01:14] <void^> network-manager-gnome can setup wpa with a gui (but it's not very flexible imo)
[01:14] <NET||abuse> it goes into your applications->internet folder
[01:14] <bernier>  hi, i followed a tut to compile the new linux kernel and at the end while creating the .deb I got that error: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/708279
[01:15] <Frogzoo> rohan: another alternative would be to modify update-grub
[01:15] <Vego> Can I run Ubuntu Dapper on a PII 266 MHz/64 MB RAM PC?
[01:15] <a_l_e> rambo3: i fear that "apt-get update" was the missing step :-)
[01:15] <rohan> Frogzoo: both of them too complicated :D
[01:15] <rambo3> a_l_e, firt add / at the end of .com  = .com/  just look at the line i gave you and fix it
[01:15] <Jimmy89> void: Do you know of a way to change the key# that the wep uses?
[01:15] <Kaja> Vego, it is possible.
[01:15] <rambo3> .com/ubuntu/
[01:15] <Frogzoo> Vego: most likely yes, but very slowly & you sure don't have enough ram for gnome
[01:16] <void^> Jimmy89: no, i never use wep
[01:16] <Kaja> Vego, you need to install some alternative desktop environment if you want to use one.
[01:16] <Jimmy89> net abuse: I got wifi-radar, and i cannot see how i can change the index number of the wep key
[01:16] <DarkMageZ> Vego, Xubuntu might be a better bet for that machine
[01:16] <kbrooks> vego: xubuntu
[01:16] <Jimmy89> void: yeah, i would prefer not to, but school has a wep protected wifi setup, and they store the key in key#2
[01:16] <NET||abuse> void^, what do you use for encryption?
[01:17] <Vego> Thanks. I'll take a look av xubuntu.
[01:17] <a_l_e> it's downloading the package list... and i could install testdisk ... now, the heavy part: will it rescue the data on the partition?
[01:17] <void^> NET||abuse: wpa/aes
[01:17] <NET||abuse> yeh, that's what  i have on my home network..
[01:17] <MistaED> vego: i managed to get ubuntu running on that spec with 128mb ram, if you can get more ram for it
[01:17] <NET||abuse> what do you use to configure it?
[01:17] <jenda> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a Travelmate 240. The LiveCD (Desktop CD) is extremely slow - it's been loading step 1 of the install for 30 minutes or more. Could this be caused by the speed of the CDROM drive only? Or must there be other causes?
[01:17] <void^> NET||abuse: wpa_supplicant
[01:17] <MistaED> vego: (gnome ubuntu i mean)
[01:17] <rambo3> a_l_e, what went wrong , is it boot or what?
[01:17] <NET||abuse> void^, umm, just apt-get install wpa_supplicant
[01:17] <NET||abuse> ??
[01:17] <ROBOd> hello people
[01:18] <void^> NET||abuse: should be installed by default, just need to configure it
[01:18] <ROBOd> which is the package for dpkg-reconfigure that asks me for monitor stuff?
[01:18] <ROBOd> i bought a new monitor now
[01:18] <NET||abuse> void^, you try wpagui at all?
[01:18] <apokryphos> ROBOd: xserver-xorg
[01:18] <rambo3> xserver-xorg
[01:18] <ROBOd> thanks
[01:18] <ewan123> hrllo
[01:18] <ewan123> i need some help
[01:19] <ewan123> hello
[01:19] <Jimmy89> hmmm, how to change the wep key index number is not easy to find
[01:19] <a_l_e> rambo3: i had to hard reboot; the system didn't restart. i had the bad idea to start in osx. it tried to rescue something and destroyed everything. now i have an empty root partition and a huge "lost+found" folder. (the other partitions are almost ok)
[01:19] <void^> NET||abuse: i just tried network-manager and didn't like it so i configured it by hand in /etc/network/interfaces and those scripts
[01:20] <NET||abuse> void^, aww. pants.. would like a nice simple to use version,,, but if i have to hack scripts.. so be it.
[01:20] <Jimmy89> so far ubuntu has been superior to standard xp stuff, but the standard wireless driver for xp has a little scroll down box asking you what index# the key is in
[01:20] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, try using wpa_gui on your machine, it has wep key selector on it.
[01:21] <rambo3> a_l_e, ok i think it will install new system with you old files in lost+found .
[01:21] <Jimmy89> ah
[01:21] <Jimmy89> nice
[01:21] <Jimmy89> apt-get install ?
[01:21] <NET||abuse> yeh
[01:21] <Jimmy89> cool
[01:21] <Jimmy89> ill give that shot
[01:21] <NET||abuse> oh, the package is wpagui but the executable is wpa_gui
[01:21] <Jimmy89> ok
[01:21] <ROBOd> rambo3 apokryphos i'd just like reconfiguration of the monitor, excluding the keyboard and the video
[01:21] <NET||abuse> let me know how you get on,,
[01:21] <void^> NET||abuse: sadly, wpa configuration isn't well documented in ubuntu.. read /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.modes
[01:22] <apokryphos> ROBOd: unfortunately to use that wizard you'll have to go through the whole thing
[01:22] <rambo3> ROBOd, just press enter till you get there
[01:22] <NET||abuse> void^, ahh, reading,,,,,,, rock n roll
[01:22] <scheuri> hi all
[01:22] <Jimmy89> ok
[01:22] <Jimmy89> i did the apt-get install wpagui
[01:22] <Jimmy89> where does it go to
[01:23] <rambo3> in debian menu
[01:23] <a_l_e> rambo3: most of the data weren't on the root partition... but the mails were :-( ... one thing i will try is to sort the lost+found files and then search through them for important mails and config files.
[01:23] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, there's no icon, you have to sudo wpa_gui &
[01:23] <a_l_e> rambo3: somebody pointed me to a script which should be able to make this sort by file type.
[01:24] <rambo3> locate *.filetype
[01:24] <rambo3> you need to sudo updatedb   first
[01:24] <IvanDragomilov> I can't use lm-sensors....when i type sudo /etc/init.d/lm-sensors start ----------->* Setting sensors limits... [fail] ..... what i have to do?????
[01:25] <Jimmy89> hmmm
[01:25] <Jimmy89> it said couldnt get information from wpa_supplicant
[01:25] <Ng> IvanDragomilov: have you run sensors-detect?
[01:25] <leethal> how do I restart apache? Just installed it in dapper with synaptic, and it doesn't seem like apachectl came bundled
[01:25] <apokryphos> leethal: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[01:25] <Ng> leethal: sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart   (or maybe apache2, which might be why you can't find apachectl ;)
[01:25] <benyx> Hi! how i can add application in the System | Administration menu  in gnome?
[01:26] <IvanDragomilov> Ng, No i2c device files found. Use prog/mkdev/mkdev.sh to create them.
[01:26] <IvanDragomilov> could u help me to do this
[01:26] <fearme> is there a way to update your library on rythmbox music player onto you ipod?
[01:26] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, hmm, not sure, it seems wpa_supplicant is the wpa driver,, so maybe you don't need that much... but you need to get your wpa configured..
[01:26] <rambo3> its : /dev/MKDEV/
[01:26] <pinkisntwell> i try to load windows with grub and I get "filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7". what is this?
[01:27] <leethal> thans, apokryphos and ng!
[01:27] <Jimmy89> well with wpagui, at least i could tell it which key to put the wep into
[01:27] <fearme> is there a way to update your library on rythmbox music player onto you ipod?
[01:27] <Jimmy89> so that is something
[01:27] <fearme> your*
[01:27] <rambo3> pinkisntwell, paste you sudo fdisk -l && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:27] <Jimmy89> however it was key - #0,#1,#2,#3, compared to #1,#2,#3,#4
[01:27] <Jimmy89> do you think #1 is the same as #2?
[01:27] <Ng> IvanDragomilov: hmm, that's a good point. I'm not entirely sure how this works on ubuntu
[01:27] <rambo3> pinkisntwell, and not in the channel use paster
[01:28] <fearme> is there a way to update your library on rythmbox music player onto your ipod?
[01:28] <IvanDragomilov> Ng, thx
[01:28] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, hmm, i'd imagine the offset would match up.. weird huh
[01:29] <Jimmy89> indeed
[01:29] <rambo3> pinkisntwell you need sudo for cat too : paste you sudo fdisk -l && sudo cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:30] <NET||abuse> haha, i seem to have forgotten  astep,,, i havnt got my wlan0 interface running yet llo
[01:30] <Jimmy89> hmmm
[01:31] <Jimmy89> mine still says failed to open control connection to wpa_supplicant
[01:31] <waky> nkkh
[01:31] <Jimmy89> any ideas there
[01:31] <rambo3> Jimmy89, crapy program ?
[01:31] <frankske> hi all
[01:32] <benyx> Hi! how i can add application in the System | Administration menu  in gnome?
[01:32] <kiddo> hi im currently trying to install drivers for mu wusb11v4 card with ndiswrapper. all been going ok however i have just stumbled into a problem as the drivers are 32bit and im in 64 bit is there a way around this
[01:32] <frankske> quick question: how does one run the base-configuration after a debootstrap?
[01:32] <pinkisntwell> rambo3: i've been through this before, the computer with the problem is not the one i'm using right now, the grub.conf contains the standard root(hd0,1) makaeactive chainloader +1 stuff
[01:32] <rambo3> !tell benyx about alacarte
[01:32] <Jimmy89> do i have to configure wpa_supplicant first?
[01:32] <scheuri> kiddo: no, I am afraid there isnt
[01:33] <kiddo> scheuri: dammit are there many cards at all supported under 64bit?
[01:33] <rambo3> pinkisntwell, thats wrong if c: is first partition it should be root (hd0,0)
[01:33] <Jimmy89> rambo3: Do you know any other program where i can set my wep key index numbers?
[01:33] <rambo3> Jimmy89, network-manager
[01:34] <Jimmy89> rambo3: Where can you set the key index number though?
[01:34] <Jimmy89> eg wep key#2
[01:34] <scheuri> kiddo: dont know...I am with 32bit all the time...there are still some issues with 64bit
[01:34] <frankske> anyone that knows what /usr/sbin/base-config got replaced with?
[01:35] <fdelacruz> guys where can I find the apt.conf
[01:35] <kiddo> scheuri: hmm seems i made a mistake going for 64 bit. is there a easy way to downgread to 32 bit?
[01:35] <Ng> fdelacruz: /etc/apt/
[01:36] <Ng> fdelacruz: it may not already exist, in which case just create it
[01:36] <rambo3> Jimmy89, there are those options in  dapper network-manager
[01:36] <Jimmy89> rambo3: where?
[01:36] <scheuri> kiddo: I doubt so...but I cant really say...I am afraid I'd have to suggest you to reinstall the whole Ubuntu
[01:36] <Jimmy89> rambo3: ive been looking for like 2 days now
[01:36] <fdelacruz> Ng inside apt.conf.d?
[01:36] <pinkisntwell> rambo3: windows is installed on secondary master so i believe (hd1,0) is correct
[01:36] <Ng> fdelacruz: no, just edit /etc/apt/apt.conf
[01:37] <fdelacruz> Ng k thanks
[01:37] <kiddo> scheuri: thats not sucha  problem its a fresh install anyway tis just a pain downloading the disc in 32bit again
[01:38] <rambo3> Jimmy89, did you install network-manager ?
[01:38] <fdelacruz> Ng Im sorry can you give me the file that I will insert on apt.conf for proxy
[01:38] <rambo3> pinkisntwell, then i dont know . that grub error line looks like its searching on wrong parition ,
[01:38] <linuxboyfriend> hi
[01:38] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[01:39] <Jimmy89> rambo3: I had it installed
[01:39] <Jimmy89> rambo3: I could not see any option for telling it which key# it should be in
[01:39] <waky> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[01:39] <waky> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[01:39] <waky> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[01:39] <Ng> !ops
[01:39] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[01:40] <apokryphos> hm, Ubugtu should be handling things like that
[01:40] <Ng> Jimmy89: by the looks of it, wpasupplicant has configuration options for setting the key index
[01:40] <Ng> Jimmy89: is it for a wep key?
[01:40] <aeon17x> waly ran out of breath lol
[01:40] <Hobbsee> apokryphos: Seveas will have your head if you do
[01:41] <Jimmy89> Ng: Yes
[01:41] <chrisjw> hey, does anyone know how to enable mp3s on ubuntu dapper
[01:41] <Jimmy89> Ng: im leaning towards wpasupplicant, with wpagui to be nicer to config
[01:41] <scheuri> !tell chris about restricted
[01:41] <bernier> !mp3
[01:41] <ubotu> I heard mp3 is a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[01:41] <scheuri> !tell chrisjw  about restricted
[01:41] <Ng> Jimmy89: I'm looking at an example wpa_supplicant.conf and it contains an option called "wep_tx_keyidx" which takes a value of 0-3 (which sounds right since there are usually 4 wep key slots)
[01:41] <chrisjw> thx hun!!!
[01:41] <scheuri> hun?
[01:42] <Jimmy89> Ng: You assume 0 would be 1 in every other case?
[01:42] <Jimmy89> Ng: cause normally it starts at 1 and goes to 4
[01:42] <Ng> Jimmy89: yeah
[01:42] <Jimmy89> Ng: can you please tell me how to config my wpa_supplicant, because i am confused and annoyed atm.
[01:44] <Ng> Jimmy89: do oyu have a wpa_supplicant.conf yet?
[01:44] <Jimmy89> Ng: no
[01:44] <Jimmy89> Ng: Is it possible just to use wpa_gui?, or does wpa_supplicant need to be configed first?
[01:45] <fdelacruz> Ng can you tell me again how can I use apt-get on a proxy settings
[01:45] <Ng> Jimmy89: to be honest I'm not sure. Have a go with wpa_gui and see if it can at least make some of the config file for you
[01:45] <Ng> Jimmy89: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15689 shows a very simple little snippet from the example .conf file that shows multiple keys and selecting one
[01:46] <dooglus> fdelacruz: easiest way: add "export html_proxy=http://user:pass@hist:port/" to ~/.xprofile and re-login
[01:46] <Ng> Jimmy89: i imagine that google and a wpa_supplicant howto can be more useful than me
[01:46] <chrisjw> are there any mp3 players that are similar to winamp for ubuntu?
[01:46] <njan> chrisjw, xmms
[01:46] <scheuri> chrisjw: xmms
[01:46] <dooglus> fdelacruz: that's http_proxy, sorry, not html_proxy
[01:46] <dsas> chrisjw: beep media player
[01:46] <njan> chrisjw, beep-media-player also
[01:46] <scheuri> !tell chrisjw about xmms
[01:46] <Ng> fdelacruz: Acquire::http::Proxy "http://user:pass@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port/";  if you don't want to use dooglus's method
[01:46] <fdelacruz> dooglus Ng thanks
[01:46] <Jimmy89> Ng: it comes up with errors saying can not connect to wpa_supplicant
[01:47] <znero> could someone explain a noob how to save the whole root+home partitions as image on dvd, so that i can put them back on hd after i formated it?
[01:48] <Pennywise83> Hi!
[01:48] <Hoxzer> hi
[01:48] <IvanDragomilov> http://www.bitstorm.org/gates/creamedgates.mpg
[01:48] <chrisjw> does xmms let you add files that are mounted to another drive?
[01:48] <chrisjw> I've mounted an ntfs partition
[01:49] <znero> because my hd looks like this: [windows|freespace|root|ntfs|free|home]
[01:49] <Pennywise83> Does anyone can help me restoring grub? Now I'm running the live-cd...
[01:49] <Hoxzer> chrisjw: yes...
[01:49] <chrisjw> Pennywise83, does your CD not have a repair option?
[01:49] <Toma-> znero, theres some exellent backup utilities available
[01:49] <scheuri> znero: maybe mondo (rescue) is your friend...:)
[01:49] <Pennywise83> Chri[s] : I don't know, it is the Dapper 6.06 installation cd
[01:50] <scheuri> !tell scheuri about mondo
[01:50] <Hoxzer> Pennywise83: did u instal WindowsXP and it overtooked boot?
[01:50] <alchemist> Jimmy89: just getting ready to head to the office. catch me in about 2 hours ;)
[01:50] <scheuri> znero: www.mondorescue.org
[01:50] <Jimmy89> ah alchemist
[01:50] <znero> scheuri: thanks, il look for it
[01:50] <Jimmy89> i believe wpagui allows you to select which key index the wep key can go in
[01:51] <Jimmy89> just a matter of configing wpasupplicant first
[01:51] <Pennywise83> Hoxzer: exactly... I've found a little how-to on ubuntuforums but it doesn't work
[01:51] <Seveas> Jimmy89, wpagui is obsolete, network-manage is much better
[01:51] <Jimmy89> sevas: apart from the fact that you cant select a key index for the wep key
[01:51] <chrisjw> Pennywise83, I did exactly the same as you yesterday
[01:51] <Jimmy89> seveas: if you can please tell me how
[01:52] <chrisjw> Pennywise83, I messed up my master boot record and couldn't get to winxp
[01:52] <Pennywise83> Chri[s] : I dont want to reinstall my ubuntu one more time... now i would try to restore grub ;) (sorry for my english, dudes)
[01:52] <chrisjw> Pennywise83, well if you're running the live CD
[01:52] <ice-t> is it possible to make suspend2ram||disk with the fglrx-drivers in the repos
[01:52] <Pennywise83> chrisjw: I can boot only in windows xp because it have rewritten the mbr
[01:53] <fdelacruz> dooglus where can I find the .xprofile
[01:53] <chrisjw> ohh
[01:53] <chrisjw> well ok
[01:53] <jarmo> The 6. version falls back to text mode boot screen while 5.10 did not. When boot is complete the X window starts as it should, so this is just cosmetic. Anyone else noticed this?
[01:53] <chrisjw> /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:53] <chrisjw> do that on your live CD
[01:54] <MoxJet> hi
[01:54] <chrisjw> then you can modify the options there
[01:54] <Pennywise83> chris, do what? edit ?
[01:54] <chrisjw> yeah gedit
[01:54] <MoxJet> is there a keyboard shortcut to select workarea?
[01:54] <chrisjw> there's instructions in the file
[01:55] <_jason> MoxJet: ctrl-alt-<arrow keys> or set up a new one in system > preferences > keyboardshortcuts
[01:55] <Pennywise83> chris, there isn't any grub dir into boot... maybe i have to mount my root partition and make a chroot ?
[01:55] <Hackmo> Hey all I have a bit of a problem
[01:56] <MoxJet> thanks _jason
[01:56] <MoxJet> alt+ctrl+arrows will do fine
[01:56] <jarmo> And while this Inspiron 7000 did suspend more or less perfectly with 5.10 it will lock up hard with 6. Any idea why?
[01:56] <Hackmo> I have inserted a second hdd into my machine but I don't know how to access it
[01:57] <chrisjw> yes probably
[01:57] <chrisjw> butthat's where your grub files are
[01:57] <Yoe> I just noticed that my package nbd (which is in ubuntu main) is at version 1:2.8.3-1 in dapper.
[01:57] <chrisjw> I'm very new to the whole linux thing
[01:57] <Pennywise83> chrisjw: thanks, now I'm going to reboot my system...
[01:57] <Yoe> that version contains an ugly bug which may have it produce gigabytes worth of syslog messages in just a few minutes (depending on the speed of the hardware)
[01:57] <Pennywise83> see you later! :)
[01:57] <chrisjw> bye
[01:57] <Yoe> well, s/may/will/
[01:58] <chrisjw> xmms is really cool
[01:58] <chrisjw> thanks
[01:58] <Yoe> is there any chance of getting an update through to dapper?
[01:58] <Yoe> (occasionally, edgy also contains the buggy version; however, I hope that's going to be updated any time soon?)
[01:58] <scheuri> yoe...best would be to add a bug at launchpad and inform the devs
[01:59] <Yoe> scheuri: wouldn't that require me to have a launchpad account?
[01:59] <gnomefreak> Yoe: ITS BEING WORKED ON
[01:59] <Yoe> gnomefreak: err, no need to shout, really :)
[01:59] <scheuri> Yoe: yes, it doesn require you to have an account...but that is easy to get...
[01:59] <gnomefreak> sorry
[01:59] <gnomefreak> i hit it by mistake
[01:59] <Yoe> okay, no sweat then :)
[01:59] <fdelacruz> guys thank see you tom
[02:00] <MoxJet> How can I enable popup messages when a contact signs on in Gaim messenger?
[02:00] <fdelacruz> dooglas Ng thanks
[02:00] <MoxJet> like the ones from rhythmbox
[02:00] <_jason> MoxJet: gaim-guifications
[02:00] <Yoe> scheuri: I prefer not to do that. I've got way too many accounts already, I'll just forget otherwise.
[02:00] <chrisjw> where can I get skins for XMMS please?
[02:01] <MoxJet> _jason: Is that a apt-get?
[02:01] <_jason> chrisjw: gnome-look.org has some
[02:01] <_jason> MoxJet: yes
[02:01] <scheuri> Yoe: well, your choice...but AFAIK is Launchpad for bugreports on ubuntu...
[02:01] <MoxJet> _jason: thanks, I'll give it a try
[02:01] <Yoe> scheuri: point being, I'd appreciate it if there were a way for me as a DD to inform Ubuntu people that "hey, you've got a problem there"
[02:02] <Yoe> one which doesn't require me to jump through hoops
[02:02] <scheuri> Yoe: well, I am not a DD, so...I cant really help you there...:)
[02:02] <chrisjw> thanks _jason
[02:02] <bernier> what's the command the delete files trough konsole?
[02:02] <scheuri> Yoe: but if it is in main-repo...you should have that possibility
[02:03] <mlunzena> Hello!
[02:03] <Yoe> scheuri: that's what I mean. I can understand them not caring as much about universe, but since they've put it in main...
[02:03] <mlunzena> I have a question about the gdm.
[02:04] <scheuri> Yoe: well, as I said...I am not the right person to speak to...maybe a polite mail to one or some Ubuntu-Devs might help
[02:04] <mlunzena> I built wmii-3 from sources.
[02:04] <_jason> bernier: rm
[02:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell bernier about cli
[02:04] <Yoe> scheuri: I'll just post something on my blog (which is aggregated on Planet Debian). Hopefully that'll result in something.
[02:04] <mlunzena> But it is not shown in the sessions dialog in gdm.
[02:04] <mlunzena> How do I get it there?
[02:04] <scheuri> Yoe: frankly...blogs are in my opinionen not the right place for such things...its public..people get offended...
[02:05] <Yoe> scheuri: I don't easily offend people :)
[02:05] <Yoe> scheuri: and I intend to write this in a totally non-confrontational way.
[02:05] <scheuri> Yoe: I did NOT say that...:)...people GET offended sometime
[02:06] <scheuri> Yoe: well, it is up to you...for sure...I'd just thought that a mail before blogging might help
[02:06] <Yoe> scheuri: sure. IME, there's not much difference there between mail and blog posts, though.
[02:06] <chrisjw> how do I install a theme for xmms?
[02:06] <chrisjw> :$
[02:06] <mlunzena> No one's using wmii?
[02:06] <scheuri> Yoe: well, I think there still is...but as I said...it is up to you...:)
[02:06] <chrisjw> it's a tar.bz2 or something
[02:07] <id_sonic> chrisjw download theme package and ucompse them to ~/.xmms/theme
[02:07] <chrisjw> ucompse?
[02:08] <MetaMorfoziS> why onl 2.4 kernel-headers and images in the repos?
[02:08] <MetaMorfoziS> i want to install vmware, and it needs....
[02:08] <scheuri> MetaMorfoziS: ? there are surely 2.6 images and headers available
[02:08] <MetaMorfoziS> The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.
[02:08] <znero> Please specify your DVD drive's /dev entry <-How do i do this? My DvD-Burner is meant.
[02:08] <gnomefreak> MetaMorfoziS: your running a 2.6 kernel
[02:08] <MetaMorfoziS> for me not... i have the source-o-matic repo
[02:08] <scheuri> MetaMorfoziS: try "aptitude search headers" on the CLI
[02:08] <scheuri> MetaMorfoziS: ah, sorry...dont know about special repos...my bad
[02:09] <zeroshot> when i try to install anything from synaptic i get an error of dpkg-split returned error exit status 126 im running xbuntu x86_64 inside of a vmware server anyone experienced this problem ?
[02:09] <gnomefreak> MetaMorfoziS: that wont matter they have nothing to do with the kernel you are running
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> hm lol
[02:09] <gnomefreak> MetaMorfoziS: uname -r will give you a 2.6 output
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> apt-get install kernel-headers`uname -r`
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> works
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> but
[02:09] <HellTriX> does the ubuntu server install load up to the same desktop as the desktop install release? (I need a LAMP server but also a windows replacement desktop on the same machine).
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> in synaptic i not found only 2.4 headers:D
[02:10] <chrisjw> hm
[02:10] <MetaMorfoziS> so from cli it works, thx.)
[02:10] <id_sonic> chrisjw extract
[02:10] <scheuri> HellTriX: wihtin Server "Edition" there are NO desktop systems included (its a server!)
[02:10] <gnomefreak> MetaMorfoziS: you shouldnt have you may see some (not sure why) but you might the 2.6 headers are there
[02:10] <HellTriX> meh :\
[02:10] <scheuri> HellTriX: you may download and install them from the internet thought
[02:11] <scheuri> -t
[02:11] <id_sonic> chrisjw extract compressed file
[02:11] <HellTriX> ya prolly will do that, tnx.
[02:11] <scheuri> HellTriX: well, servers do not have any desktop stuff on it...
[02:11] <kdean06> Does anyone know how to make ddclient report my WAN address to zoneedit, as opposed to my LAN ip?
[02:12] <HellTriX> which you think would be better, gettin desktop version and adding LAMP or getting server version and adding a gui?
[02:12] <scheuri> kdean06: on their website (the one from ddclient) it is described how to make ddclient to get the IP (WAN) from a website and transmit it
[02:13] <scheuri> HellTriX: are you asking me? well then I need to say, NEITHER...a server does NOT have any kind of desktop stuff on it...but that is my philosophy
[02:13] <chrisjw> hm
[02:13] <HellTriX> heh.. I run windows xp with apache now :)
[02:13] <chrisjw> xmms is sounding a little distorted compared to the movie player
[02:14] <chrisjw> is this because of the settings?
output plugin as ALSA?
[02:14] <id_sonic> chrisjw output plugin as sed is a good idea, I think :)
[02:15] <scheuri> !tell scheuri about rm
[02:15] <chrisjw> hehehe!!

[02:17] <xice> can anyone get the Gnome lock to work with xgl?
[02:17] <kebabab> hi. ubuntu newbie here. what's the best software to use for installing win/ttf fonts?
[02:18] <MonsieurBon> hello
[02:18] <NET||abuse> xoice? gnome lock?

[02:19] <xice> NET||abuse, yeah the locking function on gnome doesnt work since i installed xgl
[02:19] <NET||abuse> oh.. hmm, i'll look
[02:19] <MonsieurBon> what do I have to do that this does not fail? "mount -o loop -t hfsplus updater.iso ./tmp/" I get "wrong fs type, bad option..." so far...
[02:19] <virgilio> kebabab: just copy them to .fonts in your home directory
[02:19] <Samuli^> MonsieurBon, take away the hfsplus
[02:19] <NET||abuse> xice, works fine for me
better install, so that everyone gets the fonts
[02:19] <xice> NET||abuse,  ok thanks, i wonder whats going on
[02:19] <NET||abuse> no issue.
[02:20] <NET||abuse> not sure.
[02:20] <NET||abuse> is yours a high end or low end machine.
[02:20] <NET||abuse> my one is pretty low end
[02:20] <Samuli^> MonsieurBon, try iso9660 instead.. or take away the -t too and try that.
[02:20] <NET||abuse> ati
[02:20] <xice> NET||abuse, umm... no ;o
[02:20] <fredrik> all programs is using cleartype function exept my amsn, how do i make it use cleartype ?
[02:20] <xice> i mean high ;p
[02:20] <NET||abuse> driver?
[02:20] <xice> 'nvidia'
[02:20] <virgilio> fredrik: you need to compile tcl/tk with antialias support
[02:20] <NET||abuse> kay, i'm usin "ati" rather than fglrx
[02:21] <NET||abuse> card isn't supported.. but i think it's actualy working better
[02:21] <fredrik> okaj...
[02:21] <xice> lol
[02:21] <MonsieurBon> Samuli^: now i get "you must specify the filesystem type"
[02:21] <Samuli^> MonsieurBon, did you try iso9660?
[02:22] <kebabab> thanks guys...
[02:22] <scheuri> kebabab: very welcome
[02:22] <fredrik> virgilio: that hard ?
[02:22] <MonsieurBon> Samuli^: yep, that gave the "wrong fs type"-error again
[02:22] <NET||abuse> woah, glxgears is workin like poop here
[02:22] <NET||abuse> it says it's gettin 65-70 fps.. but..... ummmm, no.. it's like 1 frame every 2 seconds
[02:22] <ap> someone have put to work an monitor by xinerama ?
[02:22] <virgilio> fredrik: just to find the source and compile them with antialiasing support
[02:22] <ap> a second monitor with the extend desktop ?
[02:23] <scheuri> ap: are you using nvidia-drivers or -card?
[02:23] <virgilio> i don't know if ubuntu binary packages had this option enabled. I don't use tcl/tk apps oftenly
[02:23] <fredrik> virgilio: do you know if there is a site with a guide or something ?
[02:23] <ap>  scheuri : worst intel extreme
[02:23] <ap> scheuri : shared memory 64 mb
[02:23] <scheuri> ap: Oh I see...I managed to have double monitor with nvidia...but not intel, sorry
[02:24] <Miravlix> I'm an oldtimer so I used reportbug to report bugs, but as I've found out you have to use L-Pad now, my problem is where the 'heck' do you type in bug reports in that thing.
[02:24] <virgilio> fredrik: http://www.amsn.ws/node/6
[02:24] <ap> scheuri : but after put the configuration you only need to plug the second monitor ?
[02:24] <virgilio> fredrik: it's in spanish, but it's quite easy to understand
[02:24] <gnomefreak> !bug
[02:24] <ubotu> bugs are reported to https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs
[02:24] <gnomefreak> right there Miravlix
[02:24] <ap> scheuri : i have put the xorg.conf with confs but not worked
[02:24] <fredrik> virgilio: Thanks!
[02:24] <virgilio> fredrik: you're wellcome
[02:25] <scheuri> ap: sorry, dont know about intel...tought I might be helpful if you used nvidia...
[02:25] <Samuli^> MonsieurBon, well it _should_ work

[02:30] <TigerWolf> Anyone know of a linux app that monitors uploads and downloads on a network card?
[02:30] <JaZy84> i'm was unable to boot off 6.06 it wouldn't find the hda (although it's a scsi drive (sda) ) so it would time out and not start but i was able to hoary

[02:33] <|lostbyte|> AMD or INTEL ?
[02:33] <|lostbyte|> which is better ?
[02:34] <Miravlix> An error occurred.
[02:34] <Muzik_> cuz gkrellm does summaries, its more of a real time graph but it can report in the last week/month type of info
[02:34] <Miravlix> What a nice and informative response to me hitting submit error report.
[02:34] <TigerWolf> !tell |lostbyte| about offtopic

[02:34] <chrisjw> hi xmms is still sounding really distorted, i'm using esound as output
[02:35] <kane77> hi... what is a text based irc client?
[02:35] <Krieger> chrisjw, disable distortion^^
[02:35] <chrisjw> huh?
[02:35] <Krieger> kane77, a irc client like iirc you can use on the command line or in the shell
[02:35] <chrisjw> are you taking the piss out of me?
[02:36] <Krieger> chrisjw, no, look for a plugin, maybe there is one... im not joking
[02:36] <chrisjw> oh ok :)
[02:36] <Miravlix> Someone tell l-pad that Mysql-server-5.0 need /etc/cron.daily/mysql-server  filename=`tail -n $KEEP_BINARY_LOGS $tmp | head -n 1'` changed to filename=`tail -n $KEEP_BINARY_LOGS $tmp | head -n 1 | awk '{print $1}'` to deal with mysql 5.0?) returning filename + number and not just filename, because it's apparently beyond my abilities to work out how l-pad works.
[02:36] <kane77> Krieger, oh thanx... i wanted to ask what are some text based irc...
[02:37] <ROBOd> hello
[02:37] <JaZy84> bitchx

[02:38] <ROBOd> how to disable that?
[02:38] <kane77> and another one... I'm trying to use the text output that program gives (for example irc) and run it through festival (command | festival --tts) but this way it doesnt show up what it's printing out... how can I have the text send to festival AND dispay it also on screen...???

[02:45] <scheuri> SpiderMonkey: are you using Ubuntu64?
[02:45] <drcode> hi all

[02:45] <Fatal_2> hi guys.. i've googled a bit before asking this.. but does anybody know how to get sound working for dapper when running in vmware on top of winxp?
[02:45] <SpiderMonkey> not yet

[02:45] <drcode> How I can fix it to defualt , like in ubuntu 5./
[02:45] <drcode> ?

[02:46] <drcode> any idea how I can bring all menu in xfce4 inside ubuntu like in ubuntu 5.x?
[02:46] <chrisjw> well thanks for the help I must be going now
[02:46] <chrisjw> bye
[02:46] <dooglus> ighost: this is a ubuntu channel, not #carpentry
[02:47] <jinho326> whats the command to install a different video driver?
[02:48] <jinho326> anyone?
[02:48] <JaZy84> when it gets to mounting root filesystem on the 6.06 install it stops for a bit, then i get a screen saying timed out waiting for DMA on hda (which my drive should be sda) any ideas?
[02:48] <scheuri> jinho326: most video drivers are included with the X-Server...no need to download and "install" them
[02:48] <scheuri> jinho326: however, you need to tell X-Server which one to use by editing the xorg.conf
[02:48] <jinho326> scheuri: what I mean is that my desktop isnt even loading
[02:49] <jinho326> and i think its because of a problem w/ the ATI driver the OS initially chooses
[02:49] <scheuri> jinho326: if it is not loading there is something wrong with your configurations...are you stuck on the command line?
[02:49] <jinho326> Iv had this problem for a while
[02:49] <jinho326> scheuri: not even the command line
[02:49] <jinho326> just a black screen
[02:49] <scheuri> jinho326: try alt-f1
[02:49] <jinho326> right before ubuntu is supposed to load
[02:49] <scheuri> jinho326: the black screen is only on alt-f7
[02:50] <Gambit--> Hi Everyone, I'm trying to get Xdmcp on Ubuntu 5.10 working right, but every time I connect to it it just disconnects me immediately, it never even shows the greeter window with a login prompt.  Any ideas what could be the problem?
[02:50] <jinho326> im not in ubuntu yet at that point
[02:50] <scheuri> jinho326: ah, I see...well....try to press alt-f1 and you should end up on the console
[02:50] <Fatal_2> but does anybody know how to get sound working for dapper when running in vmware on top of winxp?
[02:50] <scheuri> jinho326: there you type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server"
[02:51] <jinho326> thanks that was exactly wat i was looking for!
[02:51] <scheuri> jinho326: that will bring up the configurations dialog for X-Server
[02:51] <scheuri> jinho326: BEWARE, i am just not sure if it is xorg-server or xserver-xorg
[02:51] <scheuri> always mixing that up
[02:52] <jinho326> kk
[02:52] <jinho326> will try both
[02:52] <gnomefreak> xserver-xorg
[02:52] <jinho326> thanks!
[02:52] <Samuli^> xserver-xorg
[02:52] <jinho326> kk
[02:52] <scheuri> see...people come to help if I tell BS...;)
[02:52] <jinho326> hehe thanks agaiN!
[02:52] <Samuli^> scheuri. I didn't see you bullshitting anyone :)
[02:53] <scheuri> Samuli^: ah, well...I really mix up those names too often...;)
[02:53] <Samuli^> me too.
[02:53] <scheuri> ;)
[02:54] <Zaggynl> Hi, how do I restart inetd? I can only find /etc/inetd.conf
[02:54] <scheuri> Zaggynl: try "sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart"
[02:54] <generico> how i reset my gnome configuration? just remove .gnome? or remove .gnome2 and .gnome2_private too??
[02:54] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, I feel your pain :(  This Xdmcp problem is driving me bonkers.
[02:55] <Zaggynl> scheuri, I tried it as root, but it cannot find that file
[02:55] <Gambit--> well really it's a problem with KDM/GDM/XDM
[02:55] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, ah video card driver problems are always bad.
[02:55] <shane_> hello all
[02:55] <torrentwoes> hi.. can anybody tell me how to check if 3d acceleration is enabled ?
[02:55] <shane_> anyone here, have one of the Intel HDA sound card/chipsets?
[02:55] <scheuri> Zaggynl: it doesnt? okay...change to /etc/init.d and make an ls
[02:55] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: yeah when the damn card lies to you :(
[02:56] <shane_> torrentwoes: run tuxracer, heh
[02:56] <scheuri> Zaggynl: maybe it is renamed in ubuntu...
[02:56] <Zaggynl> scheuri, I must be, only 3 files with 'inetd' in the name exist
[02:56] <torrentwoes> well i tried running et and i think its running pretty poorly for a 6600gt
[02:56] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, I'm just pissed that no one else seems to have my problems.
[02:56] <scheuri> Zaggynl: "sudo /etc/init.d/inetutils-inetd"?
[02:56] <Gambit--> What's the cleanest most drastic method by which you can remove a package?
[02:56] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: whats the issue?
[02:56] <Zaggynl> ill try that hold on
[02:57] <shane_> anyway, i'm having an issue, where I can record from my mic, but sound doesn't pass through, i have an HDA Intel chipset
[02:57] <Zaggynl> scheuri, doesnt exist either :(
[02:57] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: depends on the package (how it was installed)
[02:57] <shane_> torrentwoes: which driver are you using in your xorg.conf?
[02:57] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: sudo apt-get remove --purge packagename
[02:57] <generico> how i reset my gnome configuration? just remove .gnome? or remove .gnome2 and .gnome2_private too??
[02:57] <traveller> Zaggynl: "ls /etc/init.d/ | grep inet"
[02:57] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: or sudo dpkg -r packagename
[02:57] <paolob-parroquia> guys! Hi all of you! I have a problem printing from a ubuntu pc to another. I followed what is said in http://krazypenguin.net/Ubuntu_Dapper_Drake_6.06_Guide#How_to_print_on_remote_Ubuntu_machine_from_another_Ubuntu_machine , but on the server side I get a cups error: "E [14/Jun/2006:08:44:35 -0400]  Unable to bind socket for address <IP_ADDRESS>:631 - Cannot assign requested address." . Any hint? thank you!
[02:57] <shane_> I would like to be able to plug my xm into my mic jack and listen with the headphones, but the mic input doesn't play back
[02:57] <traveller> Zaggynl: should tell you if anything similar is there
[02:57] <scheuri> Zaggynl: okay...last ressort...try a "sudo aptitude search inetd" and check if there is a i at the approprite package
[02:57] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, I'm looking at completely removing any of the X11 related packages, trying to get it to a clean condition.
[02:58] <torrentwoes> nvidia
[02:58] <JaZy84> shane_,  did you check to see if it was muted?
[02:58] <scheuri> gnomefreak: what about purge?
[02:58] <torrentwoes> should i be using generic or amd64-k8?
[02:58] <Zaggynl> scheuri, it gives a v before inetd
[02:58] <gnomefreak> scheuri: dpkg doesnt have a purge parameter i dont think
[02:58] <scheuri> gnomefreak: dpkg doesnt, but apt-get and aptitude
[02:58] <shane_> JaZy84: well, the default mixer is kind of vague.there is a capture volume  that's up, 2 capture mux volume which is up, and seems to control the recording volume
[02:58] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: removing xserver-xorg should remove all other X packages with it
[02:59] <shane_> but when I run alsamixergui
[02:59] <JaZy84> ah
[02:59] <gnomefreak> scheuri: i gave him the --purge command
[02:59] <Zaggynl> traveller, nothing like it :(
[02:59] <shane_> that mixer doesn't let me raise the volume up
[02:59] <scheuri> Zaggynl: well, try to install it again "sudo aptitude install inetd"
[02:59] <Zaggynl> okay
[02:59] <ranpha> how can i chck the filesystem of my own root???
[02:59] <shane_> in alsamixergui i'm talking about the "Input source" setting
[02:59] <traveller> Zaggynl: maybe it's not installed, try -- dpkg -l xinetd
[03:00] <interferon> is dapper out yet?
[03:00] <traveller> Zaggynl: or you can follow scheuri's suggestion :)
[03:00] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, so everything that depends on xserver-xorg will get cleaned out too, right?
[03:00] <traveller> Intangir: yes
[03:00] <gnomefreak> interferon: yes for 2 weeks
[03:00] <shane_> i'm not sure what "Inpu Source" is suppose to mean, versus Capture, and the 2 Captur MUX controls
[03:00] <tenco> when i want to use mail notification with pop3, i can't select ssl (it's greyed out), despite this pop3-account works in evolution with ssl.
[03:00] <interferon> how do i upgrade to it?
[03:00] <tenco> is this a know issue?
[03:00] <scheuri> !tell interferon about upgrade
[03:01] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: should i might use aptitude remove purge to be sure   im not sure how aptitude handles a purge parameter though you might want tto refer to man aptitude to find out
[03:01] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, how is aptitude different then apt-get?  I thought they were the same :)
[03:01] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: aptitude handles depends better than apt-get
[03:02] <patrick_king> what is vmware used for
[03:02] <dooglus> gnomefreak: apt-get does a better job of resolving dependencies than aptitude
[03:02] <ighost> dooglus: :p
[03:02] <Zaggynl> patrick_king, virtual machines
[03:02] <tenco> someone using pop3 here?
[03:02] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: apt-get will suggest packages for you aptitude will install them automaticly
[03:02] <scheuri> patrick_king: to emulate other operating systems (and applications in it)
[03:02] <dooglus> ighost: did you try asking in #mysql or some such?
[03:02] <Zaggynl> patrick_king, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware
[03:02] <yanis> what package do I need to play mpeg,avi and other videos?
[03:02] <BlueEagle> gambit--: aptitude with no action opens a curses-based interface.
[03:02] <Zaggynl> works perfectly for school projects ;)
[03:02] <Kibou> gnomefreak: you can turn that off though
[03:03] <gnomefreak> Kibou: yes i know
[03:03] <BlueEagle> uberriffic: tell yanis about restricted
[03:03] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell yanis about restricted
[03:03] <gnomefreak> Kibou: you have a config file you can do anything ;)
[03:03] <Gambit--> Oh, that's interesting, I'll have to give it a try.
[03:03] <BlueEagle> uberriffic: sorry about the mis-nicking.
[03:03] <Kibou> just saying
[03:03] <interferon> just change breezy to dapper in my sources.list and then run apt-get dist-upgrade?
[03:04] <Yoosah> interferon: first apt-get update
[03:04] <traveller> interferon: apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:04] <ighost> dooglus: i'm talking in #postgresql right now, and they are giving me the bad news
[03:04] <scheuri> interferon: well, a "aptitude update" first
[03:04] <BlueEagle> interferon: I would recomend using the source-o-matic to generate that sources.list
[03:04] <a_l_e> i'm on ubuntu live: how can i give cups a password for setting up a printer (i didn't succeed in configuring the network printer through the printers tool)
[03:04] <gnomefreak> interferon: with an apt-get update before apt-get dist-upgrade but yes
[03:04] <tenco> additionaly, everytime i start evolution i get asked to accept a ssl certificate of the pop3-server. but the fingerprint is everytime the same
[03:04] <interferon> right, i just did the update, but neglected to mention it )
[03:04] <interferon> :)
[03:04] <gnomefreak> BlueEagle: not during upgrade
[03:04] <tenco> how can i stop evolution behaving that way?
[03:05] <interferon> 1272 upgraded, 250 new
[03:05] <interferon> shoot
[03:05] <patrick_king> so what could i use vmware for
[03:05] <BlueEagle> a_l_e: If you're on http://localhost:631 you need to specify a root password. To set the root password: `sudo passwd` (not recomended) What happended with gnome-cups-manager?
[03:05] <scheuri> patrick_king: testing, working, developing...
[03:05] <shane_> so no one has used an HDA Intel chipset?
[03:05] <BlueEagle> gnomefreak: oh, ok.
[03:06] <gypsymauro> I'm using dapper alternate CD but after a while I get black screen.. it seems its working
[03:06] <gypsymauro> but why that blank screen?
[03:06] <BlueEagle> patrick_king: You can use vmware for running other operating systems in viritual machines (the vm stands for viritual machine iirc)
[03:06] <avalost> damned flashplayer download is taking _forever_
[03:07] <yanis> nothing lasts forever
[03:07] <BlueEagle> gypsymauro: that might be the screen saver. Try pressing ie. shift.
[03:07] <gypsymauro> BlueEagle: screen saver on textual installer?
[03:07] <BlueEagle> gypsymauro: Yes, text interfaces are as much prone to burn-in on the monitor as any other interface.
[03:07] <a_l_e> BlueEagle: no idea, i give the ip address but i can't it can't get to the printer :-( mac osx on the other laptop can.
[03:07] <DanielC> Something is seriously wrong with Dapper. I'm trying to install it on a new laptop and I swear it's taken 1 hour to go past the *first* step. You know, where you select the language.
[03:08] <jpbotelho> how i reset my gnome aparence??
[03:08] <BlueEagle> a_l_e: ...and your printer is a? ...and it's connected to a?
[03:08] <scheuri> DanielC: which CD? have you checked CD checksum?
[03:08] <gypsymauro> btw is not the screen saver and I got the same problem on another machine so isn't video card too
[03:08] <decon> hi someone please help me with a weird problem here :P im following this guide to get my wifi on my thinkpad working: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26623 But for some reason there isnt any folder called /hotplug/ when i use this cmd sudo cp ipw-2.3-*.fw /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/
[03:08] <BlueEagle> danielc: How much RAM on the machine?
[03:08] <DanielC> scheuri:  Desktop CD. Yes, I checked the checksum, it was fine.
[03:08] <Ng> jpbotelho: System->Preferences->Theme and pick Human, that should reset most things
[03:09] <BlueEagle> danielc: Make, model, speed and age of the CD-ROM drive?
[03:09] <DanielC> BlueEagle: Brand new machine, perhaps 1GB of RAM. 'top' doesn't show any problems with etiher CPU or RAM.
[03:09] <DanielC> BlueEagle:age: about 20min.
[03:09] <BlueEagle> danielc: then I recomend you choose the "check CD for errors" during boot.
[03:09] <DanielC> BlueEagle: Ok, seriously, this laptop is a new model and arrived this morning.
