[00:00] <colton> k thx.
[00:00] <kicco>  /dev/dsp is owned by audio group, should someone be part of it to use audio?
[00:00] <zsquareplusc> SnelGids: you could download and burn the iso image and then boot form it? an other way would be booting the iso image in virtualbox or some other virtual machine that supports USB
[00:00] <shadowwulf> boot the live CD and you will be able to make install from the live CD
[00:00] <sebsebseb> colton: see my private message
[00:01] <cylux> kicco: Perhaps my main user?
[00:01] <zsquareplusc> SnelGids: no, you dont need to install it. booting from the cd runs a live system without touching your harddrive
[00:01] <jocimar> hi anyone
[00:01] <snowrichard> anyone?
[00:01] <SnelGids> szquareplusc , what if i burn it and then copy the burn disk files to a uds stick ?
[00:01] <kicco> cylux: i honestly don't know, i'm not part of audio group and i can use it...
[00:01] <snowrichard> 1431 anyones
[00:01] <SnelGids> will i be able to boot off it ? via notebook ?
[00:01] <john-liu> join #ubuntu-cn
[00:01] <ardchoille> snowrichard: hehe
[00:01] <jocimar> my ubuntu 7.10 recognize my hd sata but ubuntu 8.10 not
[00:01] <zsquareplusc> SnelGids: you need to make the stick bootable. that involves a few steps that you have to do manually. but it is possible
[00:01] <cylux> kicco: Damn.
[00:02] <jocimar> why?
[00:02] <cylux> Thanks
[00:02] <cylux> Hey guys, so I upgraded to intrepid. The problem is, on the GDM login screen, I can hear the drum sound clearly, but within Gnome, no sound works. Any ideas?
[00:02] <pengo> when will dual monitors in linux not suck?

[00:02] <Guest65881> Why does firefox look all different in ubuntu, (the text, among other things)
[00:02] <jocimar> my mobo is a gigabyte ga945gcm-s2c
[00:02] <matrix> how can i remove smothly IE from UBUNTU 8
[00:03] <elein> asking again: does anyone know the name of the X11-dev package that contains Xos.h and friends?
[00:03] <joebodo> pengo hard to understand why a "desktop" os does not support dual monitors
[00:03] <mindrape> Guest65881: you probably need to get moar fonts
[00:03] <cylux> kicco: I won't
[00:03] <Guest65881> mindrape, whats the apt-get for that?
[00:03] <MTraf> Hi, I don't know if this is the right place for this, but I am using ubuntu 8.10 with all the latest updates. I am trying to get Python and opengl working. I downloaded an example which works on other computers running fedora but when ran on my laptop i get "Segmentation fault"  any help would be appreciated.
[00:03] <evan_> where can i find and edit http headers>?
[00:03] <zsquareplusc> SnelGids: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ may work too. but i did not try out this one personally
[00:03] <charles> Winferno: Not sure how to  do that but I'll look through the examples.  I can access all the shared directories/files on my windows machines without any problem from my Linux 810 machine. I just can't access the external network drive. It's weird.
[00:03] <matrix> how can i remove smothly IE from UBUNTU 8
[00:04] <SnelGids> zsquareplusc, what if i do what i said above, plug in my usb disk to my notebook and through my notebook settings i select "boot" and select boot from usb stick
[00:04] <kicco> matrix: do you mean internet exploder?
[00:04] <pengo> joebodo: yeah, the poor multiple monitor support is a show stopper for me. i've been running ubuntu for over a year, but it's just too horrible to use with 2 screens.
[00:04] <BrickHaus> kicco: You might be able to look at your user by going to System>Administration>Users and Groups>Unlock. Highlight your user then click on properties. Check to see if adding to an audio group helps. This is just a guess but might be worth trying..
[00:04] <matrix> yes
[00:04] <_grepper> OK, here's something very awkward: ever since I plugged my HP 4280 printer onto my ubuntu server it shuts down without even telling me what happened, any hints?
[00:04] <zir-rt> hi, How can I configure the mouse to one single click for gnome programs (I am using kde)? Do a need to edit a config file or install a config program?
[00:04] <jocimar> i tried 8.04 but was the same
[00:04] <_grepper> (If I remove the printer from the USB, it works)
[00:04] <matrix> i can find 100 tutorials how to install but i can not find anything how to remove uninstall IE
[00:04] <charles> winferno: once I make changes to the smb.conf file, do I need to restart samba?
[00:05] <mindrape> Guest65881:  sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
[00:05] <joebodo> pengo my big issues are dual monitor, extra mouse buttons, and vpn
[00:05] <Guest65881> awesome thanks
[00:05] <SpiffyBalak> hello again, how can I get a specific command to run every time I log in?
[00:05] <kicco> matrix: errr... it depends, how did you install it?
[00:05] <zsquareplusc> SnelGids: it does the same as if you would boot from the CD. it starts the live system and gives you the opportunity to install ubuntu if you want
[00:05] <pengo> joebodo: my mouse remembers its button config from when it's setup in windows fortunately (logitech g9)
[00:06] <Anarchy> has anyone here ever run a python script via crontab??
[00:06] <zsquareplusc> joebodo: mouse button? what issue?
[00:06] <jrib> Anarchy: someone probably has, yeah
[00:06] <jocimar> why ubuntu 7.10 install in a gigabyte ga945gcm-s2c hd sata and 8.10 cant
[00:06] <Anarchy> im having issues getting it to work
[00:06] <joebodo> the extra mouse buttons dont work - been looking at xmouse (i think) to configure it
[00:06] <jrib> Anarchy: you should give more details
[00:07] <jrib> joebodo: do they show up in xev?
[00:07] <_grepper> can anyone help me to identify what can be leading to this shutdown?
[00:07] <zsquareplusc> Anarchy: yes i have, but maybe #python is more appropriate?
[00:07] <SnelGids> zsquareplusc, in referrin to what i said right ??
[00:07] <matrix> first i did sudo apt-get install wine cabextract binfmt-support then wget  wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
[00:07] <matrix> then tar and install it
[00:07] <joebodo> they work in firefox, but not in nautilus etc
[00:07] <Anarchy> ok im trying to run a python script via crontab so it runs once an hour or so
[00:07] <joebodo> yes - they work in ev
[00:07] <jrib> Anarchy: more details
[00:07] <Anarchy> it runs fine on a shell
[00:07] <Anarchy> but i ant get crontab to run it
[00:07] <jocimar> someone?
[00:07] <icheishvili> i'm not kidding, scrolling any page in firefox makes me have to renice totem to keep my music from skipping
[00:08] <zsquareplusc> joebodo: mine started working with 8.10. befrore they were not working/mapped to mid click. now i use xmodmap to change button order
[00:08] <matrix> first i did sudo apt-get install wine cabextract binfmt-support then wget  wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
[00:08] <matrix> then tar and install it

[00:08] <Andreica> will photoshop work with wine?
[00:08] <BrickHaus> Anarchy: Start by giving full permissions, to see if that isolates the issue.. just a guess to help you along
[00:08] <zsquareplusc> !who > Anarchy
[00:08] <joebodo> imwheel - that's it - i installed it but havent taken the time yet to figure it out - it's not very intuitive
[00:08] <evan_> is it normal for httpd.conf to be empty?
[00:09] <kicco> Andreica: yes, at least CS2
[00:09] <Anarchy> this is what the crontab line looks like: * * * * * /patch/to/py/script.py
[00:09] <zsquareplusc> evan_: yes
[00:09] <matrix> can you assist me kicco
[00:09] <Andreica> but what abous CS3, will it work?
[00:09] <Rhorse> Anarchy, if Crontab runs into problems it usu spits out an error message.
[00:09] <kicco> Andreica: dunno
[00:09] <masmota> i cant seem to actually change anything through networkmanager (8.10).  the settings wont "hold"
[00:09] <evan_> zsquareplusc: can i add addtype en rerwiteEngine  text there?
[00:10] <Dominik1> I can not adjust the brightness on my Laptop: Sony Vaio VGN-CR507E
[00:10] <mindrape> carlinhos: lspci and lsmod - does Ubuntu recognize your card and is the driver loaded?
[00:10] <zsquareplusc> Anarchy: i think at least one of the * should be a number. and i think you could just write @hourly as shortcut
[00:10] <MTraf> Does anyone know how to fix a segmentation fault error when running a python opengl sript? (on ubuntu 8.10 with python and python-opengl installed)
[00:10] <evan_> zsquareplusc: or do i need to create a .htacces?
[00:10] <Andreica> so, i have to download CS2?
[00:10] <matrix> can you assist me kicco
[00:10] <matrix> can you assist me kicco
[00:11] <zsquareplusc> evan_: i dont know. i added such stuff to sites-enabled/default
[00:11] <kicco> matrix: doin what?
[00:11] <Anarchy> well i had 1 * * * * /path/to/py/script.py
[00:11] <matrix> uninstall IE from ubuntu
[00:11] <zir-rt> hi, How can I configure the mouse to one single click for gnome programs (I am using kde)? Do a need to edit a config file or install a config program?
[00:11] <joebodo> is xmodmap still relevent in 8.10 - i know some stuff is done through hal
[00:11] <kicco> Andreica: it surely works, don't know about CS3
[00:11] <Anarchy> i did a chmod 777 on the py script
[00:11] <kicco> matrix: you should be more specific, how did you install it?
[00:11] <Andreica> ok, thanks
[00:12] <matrix> first i did sudo apt-get install wine cabextract binfmt-support then wget  wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
[00:12] <Chousuke> Anarchy: 755! (777 is evil)
[00:12] <Rhorse> Anarchy, use MAILTO= to get messages from Cron
[00:12] <matrix> then tar and install ie
[00:12] <mosno> is it just me, or does 8.10 Alternate NOT support rootfs-on-LVM-on-LUKS (the thing Etch supported)?
[00:12] <carlinhos> mindrape: i think so, look: http://paste.ubuntu.com/69810/
[00:12] <charles> winferno: You mentioned about setting up a share on the sam machine that's not on an external drive, but the external drive I have is a network drive and not connected to a machine. It's connected directly to my router
[00:12] <joebodo> is xmodmap still relevent for setting mouse buttons in 8.10 - i know some stuff is done through hal
[00:13] <kicco> matrix: i did the same, when uninstalled i simply removed .ies4linux folder in my home, don't know if there's a "better way(tm)"
[00:13] <Anarchy> Rhorse: will it email me errors
[00:13] <Anarchy> ?
[00:13] <zsquareplusc> joebodo: xmodmap still works. not sure if there are other ways now. but i used it to remap buttons and an old config was messing with my keyboard until i erased it
[00:13] <Rhorse> yes.
[00:13] <Anarchy> kk ill try ty
[00:13] <joebodo> thx - i read that you have to do some hal config file - but there was very little documentation for it
[00:13] <Andreica> but what about adobe flash? is any possibility to use it under ubuntu?
[00:13] <matrix> i go to add remove programs i can not find it there
[00:13] <Rhorse> Use the user that the Crontab belongs to.
[00:13] <cylux> Hey guys, so I upgraded to intrepid. The problem is, on the GDM login screen, I can hear the drum sound clearly, but within Gnome, no sound works. Any ideas?

[00:14] <boris_> anybode uses PixelView usb TV card

[00:15] <kicco> wtf!!! ubuntu crashes every time gdm is firing up... from a liveCD. what should i try, it's driving me MAD
[00:15] <charles> winferno: I think I've turned off all the security in smb.conf and restarted samba but still not dice. Perhaps I just have to satified with accessing as an ftp connection.
[00:15] <jrib> joebodo: there is.  Why do you need it?
[00:15] <voox_x> !restricted
[00:15] <spiritssight> I would liek to know what LVM is? and does it replace ext3
[00:16] <scott_> jrib: ok how can i completely downgrade after i've already upgraded to ibex?
[00:16] <juank> help please, I search a chat of xubuntu and please best in spanish
[00:16] <joebodo> jrib was told to modify that to get the back/forth buttons working on my mouse - no Xmodmap in /etc/X11

[00:17] <voox_x> has anyone been able to fix the video tearing with intel gm965 cards?
[00:17] <scott_> jrib: you mean like from a cd?
[00:17] <jrib> joebodo: use imwheel or xbindkeys to bind your mouse keys to an action
[00:17] <IndyGunFreak> scott_: yes, you can't downgrade, you'd have to do a clean install of hardy
[00:17] <jrib> scott_: yes.  Downgrading is not supported, so you need to reinstall if you want to use hardy
[00:17] <carlinhos> mindrape: ok, i show you now. i am reading that and i see that it is not for a external vga screen... i think is not the same, isnt?
[00:18] <charles> winferno: Are you still there?
[00:18] <kicco> hey! for everybody: if experiencing random hangs and your ram is ok, noapic option did the trick for me
[00:18] <joebodo> xrib does that mean i have to configure the mouse for every application in order to get the back / forth buttons working ?
[00:18] <kicco> but i still don't know why
[00:18] <Dominik1> please help, I need to be able to adust brightness, however birghtness applet, hardware buttons, xbacklight, all do not work, please hlep

[00:19] <panfist> hi, i have no sound in 8.04 from my onboard sound over analog or HDMI. everything looks like it was detected and installed properly
[00:19] <scott_> jrib, IndyGunFreak: am i correct in thinking that the only way to get compiz working in ibex with an ati card is to...not use ibex, but downgrade to hardy?
[00:19] <mindrape> carlinhos - so long as you have your monitor plugged into that video card those instructions will apply.
[00:19] <IndyGunFreak> scott_: i don't see why you couldn't get compiz to wrk w/ Ibex, but I don't use ATI...
[00:19] <spiritssight> mindrape: it does not exist it says, can you explain what LVM is
[00:19] <scott_> or rather, reinstall hardy
[00:19] <carlinhos> mindrape: here is my xorg. http://paste.ubuntu.com/69813/ . The question is... how do i know that i am using intel drivers? because my xorg is different to other people that i read at forums...
[00:19] <zsquareplusc> panfist: did oyu check the mixer options? sometimes there are switches taht enable these outputs etc
[00:20] <gertrude> Bye Bye: KeyboardInterrupt.
[00:20] <mindrape> Logical volume management provides a higher-level view of the disk storage on a computer system than the traditional view of disks and partitions. This gives the system administrator much more flexibility in allocating storage to applications and users.
[00:20] <panfist> zsquareplusc i have been messing around with the mixer options all weekend
[00:20] <jrib> scott_: don't know, don't use ati
[00:20] <juank> Rhorse... please helpme my enlgish is very low... i like help for xubuntu
[00:20] <joebodo> scott_ i have ati + compviz working
[00:20] <neko-> so google earth is supposed to be in the medibuntu repositories, which i added a while ago, yet i can't find the packages that are supposed to be available using aptitude.  can anyone think of a reason for hat?
[00:20] <Andreica> on ubuntu 8.04,i had ability to connect my phone(with usb cable)to computer and it worked good.but on ubuntu8.10, it don't works. It is a error in linux, or i must to install anything to make it work?
[00:20] <joebodo> *compiz
[00:21] <zsquareplusc> panfist: then i have no good idea either
[00:21] <mindrape> carlinhos - yeah, your xorg is configured to be "generic" so it doesn't know which video card to use and specific settings... I'd dpkg-reconfigure it.
[00:21] <jrib> neko-: pastebin
[00:21] <Rhorse> juank, pregunta en canale #ubuntu-es!
[00:21] <penguinchix0r> heya, I'm looking to build a computer, and I'm wondering which video card to get.  I've heard that ATi cards have good linux support these days, but I'm wondering how new I can go while still getting good support under ubuntu (I want to dual boot for gaming)
[00:21] <neko-> jrib: paste the results of aptitude search?
[00:21] <chmac> Anyone using Gnotime on Intrepid? It looks like the file format has changed, I can't seem to upgrade...
[00:21] <spiritssight> mindrape: So this is a good thing which one do you use for server, encyped or not
[00:21] <jerry_> yeah go for the ati one
[00:22] <boris_> what is mythtv
[00:22] <jerry_> they got pretty good support
[00:22] <jrib> neko-: sure, whatever lead you to your conclusion
[00:22] <carlinhos> mindrape: ok, so what do i have to write at console?
[00:22] <charles> winferno: Thank you for you're help. I'll keep trying. Worst case scenario I guess I can always reinstall 8.04. That works on my other machine. Thanks again.

[00:22] <damaltor> hello everybody. i have the following problem: i have lots of music on an external hdd (like 100 gb). i want to have this disk plugged into my "server" computer wich is on 24/7, because i use a notebook for daily work. i want to listen to the music preferably with amarok. so i mounted the filesystem of the external disk on the server via NFS onto my notebook, wich works quite well. NFS mounting is NOT the problem here. indeed the problem is, ...
[00:23] <scott_> juank: ask your question and maybe someone can answer it
[00:23] <damaltor> ... amarok does loads of I/O on the files it is using, wich noticeably slows my system because everything goes via network. is there a more efficient way to bring amarok to files on another computer in network? or a more efficient, but nevertheless luxourious way (like amarok is =) for listening tu music via network?
[00:23] <billybigrigger> pe
[00:23] <charles> Good night every one. Be good to each other.
[00:23] <neko-> jrib: done.
[00:23] <kicco> if i give the "noapic" boot parameter while booting from liveCD, will it be there after installation automatically?

[00:24] <cylux> Hey guys. I am on intrepid and I get sound working on the GDM login screen (I hear the drum) but within Gnome after I log in, my sound doesn't work.
[00:25] <penguinchix0r> jerry_: That's great, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to get an ATi anyway, I was just worried that if I got something really bleeding edge it might not be supported yet :p

[00:25] <snip3r> well i get this when i try to install "windows is unable to find a system volume that meets its criteria for installation" what is wrong or what am i doing wrong?
[00:25] <schmoop> does anyone know how to  mount an et3 driver from windows.  the catch is that is is a REAL raid array and when i install ifs-driver it sees the drive but wants to format it when i know it is already formated
[00:25] <cylux> Hey guys. I am on intrepid and I get sound working on the GDM login screen (I hear the drum) but within Gnome after I log in, my sound doesn't work.
[00:25] <lovre> i have a problem with knetworkmanager, it doesnt recognize the connection to the internet, so other applications like firefox and pidgin think im not connected to the internet, even though i am.. How can i fix this?
[00:25] <joebodo> !relevant
[00:26] <evan_> how do i do this right?? : RewriteBase: only valid in per-directory config files
[00:26] <scott_> joebodo: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=canonical_catalyst_811&num=1
[00:26] <event> its possible install CS:S and Fifa 09 on linux os system?
[00:26] <goldmetal> how to encrypt file.any.extensions ?
[00:26] <joebodo> snip3r if your asking about installing windows, your in the wrong forum
[00:26] <lovre> cylux: i had the same problem with kde, fixed it by turning up PCM volume
[00:26] <evan_> the error is fixed, but i need to know the right way
[00:26] <cylux> lovre: my alsamixer doesn't function correctly.
[00:26] <schmoop> is there any other way to mount ext3 in windowd that is not ifs driver
[00:26] <snip3r> well which one should i go to so that i may get some answers?
[00:26] <zsquareplusc> evan_: that probably means that this option is only allowed in .htaccess files
[00:27] <Cpudan80> schmoop: You might be able to hit it via a SMB share
[00:27] <zsquareplusc> schmoop: there are ext2 drivers out there, that should also be able to read from ext3
[00:27] <evan_> zsquareplusc: how do i make one?
[00:27] <Cpudan80> schmoop: and then map the network share
[00:27] <joebodo> scott_ thx for the link
[00:27] <CelticLord> nuit!!
[00:27] <lovre> cylux: im not on gnome atm, but i remember a sound settings somewhere, maybe System->Something, and you should switch everything there to Alsa
[00:27] <Cpudan80> schmoop: ask ##windows
[00:27] <cylux> lovre: The problem is with pulseaudio, I know it
[00:28] <schmoop> i have IFS driver isntalled... but my fear is that since it is raid that it isn't readying it right
[00:28] <lovre> cylux: so kill pulseaudio
[00:28] <snip3r> is this or is this not the right forum to have my installation questions answered??
[00:28] <scott_> joebodo: did you have any initial problems with enabling desktop effects after upgrading?
[00:28] <zsquareplusc> evan_: maybe ask in #apache. .htaccess files are just like the other config files, but per folder.
[00:29] <joebodo> scott_ no problems - i upgraded, installed the restricted drivers, then enabled the effects - i then had to make one change due to flickering video
[00:29] <penguinchix0r> anyone? suggestion for a ubuntu-compatible AND recent ATi card?
[00:30] <Shane7x> hi
[00:30] <scott_> joebodo: the restricted drivers... you installed them from the auto-detect gui, right? (jockey-gtk)
[00:30] <neko-> jrib: the problem appears to be that i didn't download the keyring to go with the repos when i added it to my sources.  thanks. :)
[00:30] <bonhoffer> how do i see my current version (not kernel, but if i am 8.04 or 8.10)
[00:30] <joebodo> scott_ that's correct
[00:30] <Shane7x> system>system monitor>system
[00:31] <Shane7x> too see version
[00:31] <mindrape> penguinchix0r: there are hardware compatability lists on ubuntu's site (HCL)
[00:31] <usser_> bonhoffer, lsb_release -a
[00:31] <bonhoffer> Shane7x, any way to do this from command prompt -- thanks usser_
[00:31] <usser_> bonhoffer, that was command prompt
[00:31] <usser_> bonhoffer, oh nvm
[00:31] <Shane7x> it wasnt actually
[00:32] <penguinchix0r> mindrape: thanks
[00:32] <bonhoffer> o.k. so i have hardy --- how can i upgrade from command prompt
[00:32] <Shane7x> sudo apt-get upgrade
[00:32] <Shane7x> i think
[00:32] <Shane7x> yea thats right
[00:32] <pw-toxic> hey, if i use my sound up and sound down buttons on my keyboard, this doesnt affect my sound volume anymore    any suggestions?
[00:33] <bonhoffer> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[00:33] <delight> does somebody know why env-variables defined in /etc/environment ain't interpreted for the root-user ? and how to make root use them ?
[00:33] <Shane7x> ya bon
[00:33] <bonhoffer> and i am running hardy
[00:33] <Shane7x> you have hardy right?
[00:33] <Shane7x> it wont let you upgrade
[00:33] <scott_> joebodo...hmm it tells me to reboot and select the advanced desktop effects setting again, once the driver is installed
[00:33] <Shane7x> hardy is really new
[00:33] <neko-> is there a functional difference between 'sudo aptitude install' and 'sudo apt-get install'?  an acquaintance told me that it was better to use aptitude rather than apt-get for some reason.
[00:33] <bonhoffer> Description:    Ubuntu 8.04.1
[00:33] <Shane7x> nope neko
[00:33] <bonhoffer> i would like 8.10
[00:33] <Shane7x> bon
[00:33] <Shane7x> i think 8.10 is 64 bit
[00:33] <cyanflux> Can someone help me with this problem I am having with evolution? I'm trying to make a program that runs when a filter is triggered, but (even after I stripped the program down to 'return 0;') evolution keeps saying it returns greater than 0.
[00:33] <Shane7x> im not sure
[00:33] <jrib> neko-: aptitude remembers packages that got installed as a dependency
[00:33] <Spets> distr-upgrade
[00:34] <joebodo> scott_ i dont remember if i had to boot or not
[00:34] <noksious> Hello why i can't connect on my aMSN, can somebody help me please?
[00:34] <scott_> joebodo: but i reboot and it hasn't installed
[00:34] <neko-> jrib: cool, thanks.
[00:34] <Shane7x> noksious, try resseting your internet connectoin
[00:34] <Shane7x> take it off of dhcp, and then place it back on
[00:34] <noksious> Shane7x, i tried, but still i can't connect.. :|
[00:34] <usser_> bonhoffer, you'll have to manually go through your /etc/apt/sources.list and change every occurence of hardy to intrepid
[00:34] <Shane7x> or reset your router
[00:34] <Shane7x> im assuming your using a router
[00:34] <noksious> dude i tried
[00:34] <Shane7x> ah
[00:34] <noksious> nothing works :|
[00:35] <Shane7x> im not sure then
[00:35] <Shane7x> reinstall?
[00:35] <FloodBot2> Shane7x: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:35] <AlanBShepard70> Does anyone know if the repos have a folding@home package or if I'll have to compile from source?
[00:35] <scott_> joebodo: i click on it again, and it searches again, pretends to install again, and gives me the same message
[00:35] <joebodo> scott_ try glxinfo | head -5         ... see if direct rendering is yes
[00:35] <en1gma> i have an ati rage IIC pci 4mb vcard....what is the max resolution i can do in 32bit
[00:35] <bonhoffer> usser_, that is the only way or the best way?
[00:35] <Spets> AlanBShepard70 you can try origami
[00:35] <noksious> Shane7x, i have reinstalled to :|
[00:35] <noksious> everything i tried

[00:35] <Dominik1> i installed a theme for firefox and now it is not working anymore, can someone please tell me how reinstall firefox
[00:36] <usser_> bonhoffer, err the only way i think
[00:36] <Shane7x> dominik
[00:36] <damaltor> hello everybody. i have the following problem: i have lots of music on an external hdd (like 100 gb). i want to have this disk plugged into my "server" computer wich is on 24/7, because i use a notebook for daily work. i want to listen to the music preferably with amarok. so i mounted the filesystem of the external disk on the server via NFS onto my notebook, wich works quite well. NFS mounting is NOT the problem here. indeed the problem is, ...
[00:36] <Shane7x> is it not showing the top bar?
[00:36] <damaltor> ... amarok does loads of I/O on the files it is using, wich noticeably slows my system because everything goes via network. is there a more efficient way to bring amarok to files on another computer in network? or a more efficient, but nevertheless luxourious way (like amarok is =) for listening tu music via network?
[00:36] <Spets> AlanBShepard70: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/category/folding/
[00:36] <Shane7x> and im assuming when you right click it flashes
[00:36] <joebodo> Dominik1 try firefox -save-mode
[00:36] <Dominik1> Shane7x: it is not showing top bar or content
[00:36] <joebodo> Dominik1 then uninstall your theme
[00:36] <Shane7x> hmm
[00:36] <Shane7x> exit out of it
[00:36] <Shane7x> then hold alt and press f2
[00:36] <Shane7x> are you using compiz?
[00:36] <Shane7x> or xfce standard
[00:36] <scott_> joebodo: it gave me a BadRequest -- probably because i've installed the hardy version of xorg
[00:36] <FloodBot2> Shane7x: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:37] <usser_> damaltor, take a look at subsonic it was featured on linux.com recently
[00:37] <en1gma> 01:0a.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage IIC 215IIC [Mach64 GT IIC] (rev 3a)
[00:37] <damaltor> usser_: will do so, thanks
[00:37] <Spets> AlanBSheoard70: I have found it works a bit bad on 8.10
[00:37] <neil_d> I am one of the people that have root permission on a computer here, but the 'User Settings' program doesn't allow me to 'unlock' so I can create a new user :(  what can I do to fix this ?
[00:37] <AlanBShepard70> Spets: Thanks I'll check out the link and the origami package.
[00:37] <en1gma> anyone know my max resolution
[00:37] <scott_> joebodo: i'm gonna reinstall the ibex packages and reboot
[00:37] <bonhoffer> usser_, o.k. http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading says i can go via system admin, but i have no idea how to do that on the netbook remix
[00:37] <penguinchix0r> mindrape: www.ubuntuhcl.org?  their list of radeons is rather small :/
[00:37] <en1gma> i cant get out of 800*600

[00:42] <joebodo> bonhoffer what computer are you upgrading ?
[00:42] <joebodo> bonhoffer eee pc ?
[00:42] <pur3> please =\
[00:42] <bonhoffer> eeepc 1000h
[00:42] <usser> Shane7x, no if your drivers are detected correctly, theres gotta be a reason to upgrade though
[00:42] <joebodo> bonhoffer i use the eeepc kernel on my 900 and 701
[00:42] <bonhoffer> is this really dumb -- i have ubuntu eee
[00:43] <Shane7x> for some reason i cant run ubuntu on any of my machines
[00:43] <SOURdiesel> i installed a third hard drive and ubuntu renamed the second drive i had already mounted
[00:43] <usser> bonhoffer, oh btw i think netbook remix doesnt work on 8.10, last time i tried it didnt
[00:43] <Spets> There isnt a 8.10 eee ubuntu out yet. I know it will break your system
[00:43] <SOURdiesel> now what?
[00:43] <bonhoffer> uname -a produces 2.6.24-21-eeepc
[00:43] <joebodo> bonhoffer no - but you'll have to replace the kernel with the eee specific one when youre done upgrading
[00:43] <zir-rt> hi, How can I configure the mouse to one single click for gnome programs (I am using kde)? Do a need to edit a config file or install a config program?
[00:43] <joebodo> Spets lies
[00:43] <IndyGunFreak> Spets: i have the normal version of Ibex on my eee 900 no prob.
[00:43] <bonhoffer> o.k. joebodo any idea on how i do that?
[00:43] <Shane7x> zir-rt
[00:44] <acalbaza> anyone have a way to play music with DRM under linux?  my itunes purchases dont play under amarok and now im kinda stuck :)
[00:44] <SOURdiesel> how do i rename a drive from say sdc to sdd?
[00:44] <usser> Spets, bonhoffer,  actually 8.10 detected everything out of the box on my 701 so theres no need for special eee release anymore
[00:44] <bonhoffer> i was having trouble with my  wireless -- folks in this room said to upgrade to fix wireless
[00:44] <bitsbam> any takers? why would a reboot kill my wireless on my laptop, on install, it found everything just fine, update-manager a month later, reboot, wireless is dead.
[00:44] <Shane7x> do you mean applicatoins barr?
[00:44] <IndyGunFreak> bonhoffer: they probably told yout hat because youd idn't make clear that you were using an eee
[00:44] <joebodo> bonhoffer instructions are at www.array.org
[00:44] <Spets> Im talking about the 1000, and i didnt mention anything about fixing it afterwards
[00:44] <joebodo> bonhoffer very, very easy to follow
[00:44] <bonhoffer> IndyGunFreak, i did explain eee
[00:44] <Spets> It will break
[00:44] <IndyGunFreak> bonhoffer: then you got bad advice
[00:45] <bonhoffer> joebodo, o.k. i can do easy . . .
[00:45] <SOURdiesel> how do i rename a hard drive?
[00:45] <ivantis> how do i change the LOCALE language?
[00:45] <IndyGunFreak> bonhoffer: what version fo ubuntu did you put on it?.. ubuntu-eee or eee-ubuntu?
[00:45] <joebodo> spets are you telling people that ubuntu will not work on eee pc ?
[00:45] <Spets> no?
[00:45] <IndyGunFreak> joebodo: i dont' think he knows what he's tellng people..
[00:45] <bonhoffer> IndyGunFreak,  2.6.24-21-eeepc
[00:46] <unitedpotsmokers> good morning
[00:46] <pangloss> !hi | unitedpotsmokers
[00:46] <Spets> Im telling people upgrading eee ubuntu to 8.10 will break the system on a eee 1000
[00:46] <ivantis> how do i change the LOCALE language of ubuntu?
[00:46] <IndyGunFreak> bonhoffer: typically your wireless should work out of the box, what problem were you having?
[00:46] <Fran89> what is CPU throttling
[00:46] <Fran89> and how can i disable/enable it
[00:46] <bonhoffer> not seeing my home network . . . erratic
[00:46] <joebodo> array.org shows eeepc 1000/1000H/1000HD as working
[00:46] <bonhoffer> not seeing the wireless -- or able to connect to wireless
[00:47] <IndyGunFreak> bonhoffer: that is very strange and you have an ee 900?
[00:47] <Spets> With a modified kernel?
[00:47] <bonhoffer> 1000h
[00:47] <joebodo> bonhoffer youll probably need to connect wired, update the kernel, then everything should work
[00:47] <compu73rg33k> neil_d, I mean where are the crontab configuration files stored at
[00:47] <bonhoffer> joebodo, i agree
[00:47] <mofmog> how do i get the window titlebars all black on white? I keep getting this grey color even though the colors are #000000 and #FFFFFF
[00:48] <bonhoffer> currently getting new packages for 8.10
[00:48] <compu73rg33k> I know how to make crontabs, but i want to make a cron job to back up my crontab ;)
[00:48] <Spets> Ok, that sounds like a plan
[00:48] <bonhoffer> then i'll update the kernel
[00:48] <lovre_> if i have a script that has sudo commands, and i put it in Autorun folder, will it execute?
[00:48] <Fran89> what is CPU throttling
[00:48] <Fran89> and how can i disable/enable it
[00:49] <admin_masu3701> hello...i installed VLC for videos but it is not working
[00:49] <admin_masu3701> what can i use to play dvds
[00:49] <cyanflux> Can someone help me with this problem I am having with evolution?
[00:49] <pangloss> ivantis: System>>Administration>>Language support
[00:49] <compu73rg33k> anyone know where the crontab configuration files are stored?
[00:49] <KnomeDE> where are installed gtk themes located?
[00:49] <bonhoffer> joebodo, thanks so much
[00:49] <ivantis> oh
[00:49] <IndyGunFreak> admin_masu3701: i like vlc.
[00:49] <neil_d> compu73rg33k: the main one is at /etc/crontab

[00:49] <kitche> admin_masu3701: any player really but you might need libdvdcss2
[00:49] <joebodo> bonhoffer no problem - good luck with upgrade
[00:49] <Fran89> what is CPU throttling
[00:49] <Fran89> and how can i disable/enable it
[00:49] <Spets> CPU throttling is slowing down your processor to cool it
[00:49] <admin_masu3701> kitche: i have libdvdcss3
[00:50] <pangloss> !repeat | Fran89
[00:50] <admin_masu3701> kitche: couldnt install 2
[00:50] <cyanflux> Can someone help me with this problem I am having with evolution? I'm trying to make a program that runs when a filter is triggered, but (even after I stripped the program down to 'return 0;') evolution keeps saying it returns greater than 0.
[00:50] <compu73rg33k> ah, but where is the one that i've created using the command "crontab -e -u root"
[00:50] <Spets> You can enable/disable it in bios
[00:50] <ivantis> Fran89: i think CPU throttling only works with some CPUs. i know it doesnt work with mine
[00:50] <jrib> compu73rg33k: man crontab  :)
[00:50] <Spets> I wouldnt advice disabling it, because the reason it kicks in is your cpu is too hot
[00:51] <Fran89> well my CPU is over 50% always
[00:51] <Fran89> no processes seems to be causing it
[00:51] <Fran89> they told me to verify it

[00:57] <eydaimon> any idea why my "USB stick" is not recognized with usb-create?
[00:57] <Shane7x> or try easy cam
[00:57] <FloodBot2> Shane7x: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:57] <Lichig0> I'm aware.
[00:57] <joebodo> sourdiesel disklabel ? sounds like you can use anything
[00:57] <CarlFK> what do I apt-get to install a 64bit kernel?  (cpu is AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-60
[00:57] <Shane7x> easy cam
[00:57] <Shane7x> is my advice
[00:57] <Shane7x> its worth a try
[00:57] <SOURdiesel> pangloss: thanks.
[00:57] <Hilton> Trying to setup an account with no password. I've tried Google but all the instructions I can get are years old and don't seem to work in Ubuntu 8.10
[00:57] <SOURdiesel> joebodo: new drive
[00:57] <R0b0t1> I just opened an Obj-C file in the Text Editor, and now regular C files do not display properly. How might I fix this?
[00:57] <tommorris> looks like I've got to recompile my kernel. Fun.
[00:58] <voconohlinux> really need help i'm on verge of insanity... i need to add myself to vboxusers group, but all options are greyed out in users and groups
[00:58] <CarlFK> voconohlinux: look for the "unlock" button
[00:58] <Hilton> voconohlinux: Did you click Unlock?
[00:58] <voconohlinux> what unlock?
[00:58] <pangloss> lol
[00:58] <Shane7x>  lmao
[00:58] <CarlFK> voconohlinux: the one you didn't press :)

[00:59] <Soopa> Hi all, how can I tell which of my disks is mounted where?  i.e. I don't know if /dev/sdc1 is hd0 or what.
[00:59] <DasEi> Sopa: mount
[00:59] <DasEi> Soopa: mount
[01:00] <R0b0t1> I just opened an Obj-C file in the Text Editor, and now regular C files do not display properly. How might I fix this?
[01:00] <SOURdiesel> when setting new disklabel for a new drive with gparted, which should i use?  MSDOS, amiga, bsd, dvh, gpt, mac, pc98, s390, sun, loop?
[01:00] <Soopa> DasEi: this disk isn't mounted, though
[01:00] <Hilton> I've removed the 'x' in /etc/passwd as one thing instructed... I've set some sort of nullok option in a pam.d file ... I can't get it to work. I still get asked for the password.
[01:00] <Soopa> I'm asking because I can't boot to Vista anymore for some reason
[01:00] <DasEi> Soopa: another hint is : sudo fdisk -l  or run gparted
[01:01] <td123> does anyone know how to get the r5u870 webcam driver to work/ where can I get one that compiles?
[01:01] <Soopa> and my menu.lst says:

[01:01] <Soopa> root		(hd2,1)
[01:01] <pangloss> !webcam | td123
[01:01] <Soopa> DasEi: aha, that helped.. thanks :-)
[01:01] <joebodo> Hilton what are you trying to do exactly ?
[01:01] <R0b0t1> I just opened an Obj-C file in the Text Editor, and now regular C files do not display properly. How might I fix this? (Setting the source type does not work)
[01:02] <DarkKnight> hey wen i pressed Alt+f2 and run metacity --replace , then i lost the desktop effects.....now how can i regain the desktop effects
[01:02] <R0b0t1> Daremonai: compiz
[01:02] <DasEi> Soopa: relize that sth like hd0,0  is like /dev/sda1
[01:02] <Shane7x> darknight- type compiz
[01:02] <Shane7x> in terminal
[01:02] <DasEi> hd = sx +1, Soopa
[01:02] <bazhang> DarkKnight, alt f2 compiz --replace
[01:03] <Soopa> DasEi: aha, thanks
[01:03] <joebodo> DarkKnight preferences->appearance->effects
[01:03] <cbk486> hello, I was listening to amarok and suddenly the music got quieter a quieter in the middle of the song, until it was completely inaudible, how can I regain the audio?
[01:03] <cbk486> I am on
[01:03] <cbk486> 8.10
[01:03] <Shane7x> joebodo all he needs to do is type compiz
[01:03] <DarkKnight> bazhang....hey thanxxxx
[01:03] <Soopa> DasEi: but what does "root		(hd2,1)" in grub mean?
[01:03] <pangloss> !sound | cbk486
[01:03] <admin_masu3701> do anybody know why i have this erro message: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[01:03] <joebodo> Shane7x i believe it's compiz --replace
[01:04] <DasEi> soopa: first count in hd is the drive, second is the partition, whreas hd starts count at 0  and the /dev/sdX  start with X=1
[01:04] <DarkKnight> bazhang......i dropped off a few hours back....as i fell asleep.....can we get back to the problem i had before
[01:04] <Shane7x> no joebodo
[01:04] <Shane7x> thats for replacing it completlley
[01:04] <Shane7x> to get it running again
[01:04] <Shane7x> all he has to do is type compiz
[01:04] <bazhang> Shane7x, not in terminal, use alt f2
[01:04] <pangloss> !return | Shane7x
[01:04] <tommorris> I had an interrupted Ibex upgrade, and now my box won't boot - giving me kernel panic. can anyone guide me through diagnosing and fixing?
[01:04] <scott_> joebodo: so the problem wasn't the hardy version... http://paste.ubuntu.com/69821/
[01:05] <bazhang> admin_masu3701, run that command
[01:05] <compu73rg33k> is there a cp flag (i looked in man but didn't notice one) to force creation of directories if they don't exist? e.g. cp /home/me/file.txt /path/to/backup/uncreated/dir/file.txt
[01:05] <admin_masu3701> bazhang: ok
[01:05] <Shane7x> anyone know anything about getting my mic to work on msn/skype
[01:05] <compu73rg33k> so that it would create uncreated/dir in /path/to/backup assuming /backup is created but not /uncreated/dir
[01:05] <joebodo> scott_ i have no clues...
[01:05] <DarkKnight> bazhang...can we get back to the problem i had before???
[01:06] <Lichig0> Nope, easy cam would work because the Eye Toy isn't being recognized.
[01:06] <bazhang> DarkKnight, what was it? the bad video?
[01:06] <DasEi> tommorris:can you boot into recovery mode ?
[01:06] <Shane7x> hmm lichig
[01:06] <Lichig0> woundn't*
[01:06] <Lichig0> sdahalksfj
[01:06] <scott_> joebodo: ok :(
[01:06] <Hilton> Is there any way to set a blank password for an account, or remove password requirements for a single account?
[01:06] <Shane7x> easy cam will recognize the cam, or should anyways
[01:06] <Lichig0> Ubuntu doesn't though.
[01:06] <tommorris> DasEi: I've managed to get it to boot up and give me a shell
[01:06] <Shane7x> thats where easy cam comes in lichig
[01:06] <joebodo> Hilton account for what ?
[01:06] <Lichig0> It doesn't show up in the Device Manager.
[01:07] <After_Math> where might I find the mount point for a sd card reader? like /dev/?
[01:07] <Shane7x> gimme a sec
[01:07] <R0b0t1> I just opened an Obj-C file in the Text Editor, and now regular C files do not display properly. How might I fix this? (Setting the source type does not work)
[01:07] <Hilton> joebodo: Kids. :)
[01:07] <DasEi> tommorris:then sudo update /grade it again
[01:07] <DasEi> tommorris:busybox or shell ?
[01:07] <pangloss> R0b0t1: what do you mean they dont display correctly? What text editor?
[01:07] <DarkKnight> bazhang...relating to the videos which i view......ya....the probelm is that the colours.....they appear too high....like u increase the contrast of ur T.V.....the way ur tv looks....the same way my videos appear...but its only wen i watch videos......
[01:07] <spolvid> I need help configuring GRUB. Is /dev/sda4 going to be the same thing as (hd0,4)?
[01:07] <Hilton> I've setup a do-nothing-but-games-or-internet account (with many restrictions in Firefox), but it needs to have no password so all they have to do is click the Kids account.
[01:07] <tommorris> DasEi: the grub menu lists 2.6.27-7 and 2.6.24-19 and -21
[01:08] <d0nets> hey is xp+ ubuntu any different with 8.10?
[01:08] <methods> why did all my firefox toolbar buttons disspear after upgrading to new ubuntu ?
[01:08] <joebodo> Hilton i dont believe that's possible, but you could bypass the login screen completely - it's set in sessions i believe
[01:08] <d0nets> just install xp, then ubuntu?
[01:08] <d0nets> and it works?
[01:08] <kicco> Hilton: interesting question
[01:08] <bazhang> d0nets, yes
[01:08] <R0b0t1> pangloss: The default one, labeled "Text Editor" in the applications menu. It doesn't display properly as in it is still stuck as the Obj-C highlighting style.
[01:08] <Shane7x> lichig.... i dont know what you should do...
[01:08] <Cluber> firewall on ubuntu, how do i access it?
[01:08] <Cmclean> What is the difference for .m4a, .flac , .oga , .wav , and .spx??? This is for sound recorder.
[01:08] <d0nets> it didnt show up in grub last time we trired
[01:08] <R0b0t1> Cluber: The force.
[01:08] <bazhang> Cluber, iptables
[01:08] <d0nets> were going to try again
[01:08] <DasEi> tommorris:so its hardy and ibex, which one you lost ?
[01:08] <Hilton> joebodo: It apparently used to be - there are many sets of instructions for doing it - but most are from 2005/2006 and don't seem to work now (or perhaps just don't work in the GUI login screen)
[01:08] <Cmclean> What is the difference for .m4a, .flac , .oga , .wav , and .spx??? This is for sound recorder.
[01:08] <kicco> can you assign a blank password?
[01:08] <ardchoille> !firewall | Cluber
[01:08] <Cmclean> What is the difference for .m4a, .flac , .oga , .wav , and .spx??? This is for sound recorder.
[01:08] <d0nets> are there any issues with ati vid drivers in 8.10?
[01:08] <__mikem> I need help. Every time I move my mouse around the top of a window, the window redraws itself incorrectly
[01:08] <pangloss> R0b0t1: have you closed all windows and then opened the .c file again?
[01:08] <d> hello
[01:08] <Shane7x> ubottu > microphone
[01:08] <tommorris> DasEi: I managed to boot it by choosing 2.6.24-21 - but if I choose 2.6.27-7 or 27-7 recovery, then when I got to login I just Ctrl+Alt+F1 one into shell
[01:09] <R0b0t1> pangloss: Yes.
[01:09] <spolvid> Anyone?
[01:09] <joebodo> hilton i auto-login, 1 second and i'll check where to set it
[01:09] <tommorris> DasEi: Ibex won't boot but I can boot into Hardy
[01:09] <DarkKnight> bazhang, ubottu...relating to the videos which i view......ya....the probelm is that the colours.....they appear too high....like u increase the contrast of ur T.V.....the way ur tv looks....the same way my videos appear...but its only wen i watch videos......
[01:09] <Shane7x> anyone know how to get my mic to work with msn?
[01:09] <Hilton> joebodo: I don't want autologin.
[01:09] <Guest26592> can someone assist me in installing my webcam
[01:09] <Shane7x> guest
[01:09] <bazhang> DarkKnight, you have intel integrated video iirc and want to play flv
[01:09] <ardchoille> !bot | DarkKnight
[01:09] <pangloss> R0b0t1: hm. idk, but you could always install eclipse or some other actual dev. tool and it will work
[01:09] <zsquareplusc> Hilton: as root you can set an users password to the empty string
[01:09] <renec> Hello. I am curious which desktop envrionment I should get for Ubuntu. I have a computer that can handle any of the, but I would personally like the fastest, most stable, and most secure one. I heard that Xfce might be for me, but also that Xfce may lack or poorly run some GNOME/KDE programs...what would people advise? Thanks!
[01:09] <Hilton> joebodo: This is a family PC. Everyone has their own account.
[01:09] <zsquareplusc> Hilton: uisng "passwd"
[01:09] <pangloss> !webcam | Guest26592
[01:09] <After_Math> where might a sd card reader mount point be? /dev/?
[01:09] <Shane7x> Guest....... sudo apt-get easycam        in terminal
[01:10] <joebodo> Hilton oh ok
[01:10] <Shane7x> i think
[01:10] <DasEi> tommorris:can't boot in recovery ibex, then choose drop to root shell ?
[01:10] <bazhang> renec, lxde
[01:10] <Hilton> zsquareplusc: And how would I do that when it's impossible to login as root? :P Or would a 'sudo bash' do the job?
[01:10] <FFForever> how do i install xmms?
[01:10] <bazhang> FFForever, you dont
[01:10] <bazhang> FFForever, use audacious
[01:10] <bazhang> !xmms | FFForever
[01:10] <zsquareplusc> Hilton: to get a root shell do "sudo -i" or for single commands "sudo passwd..."
[01:10] <renec> bazhang, hmmm...never heard of that. Googling...
[01:11] <pangloss> !best | renec
[01:11] <spolvid> When configuring GRUB, would (hd0,4) be the same thing as /dev/sda4?
[01:11] <Lichig0> Maybe there is something wrong with my Eye Toy, I couldn't get it to work in Windows with the hack...
[01:11] <pangloss> !offtopic | renec
[01:11] <tommorris> DasEi: if I choose either of the Ibex from the list, I can't get as far as a shell because I get a Kernel panic
[01:11] <Hilton> m'kay. So I can set the empty string that way, then? Excellent... now to figure out how to make GRUB offer Windows XP up for boot.
[01:11] <DasEi> spolvid: nope
[01:11] <Lichig0> I'll test it on my PS2
[01:11] <spolvid> DasEi: So what should I set it to then?
[01:11] <pangloss> !grub | Hilton
[01:11] <zsquareplusc> spolvid: i thing grub is one off. it uses zero based numbering while linux partitions start at 1
[01:12] <Hilton> I've put an entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst as instructed online, but when I try to boot into it I get 'invalid executable' or something like that.
[01:12] <Hilton> I'm thinking I put the wrong hdd in...but I don't think so.
[01:12] <DasEi> spolvid: ,  (hd0,4) would be the same thing as /dev/sda5
[01:12] <voconohlinux> alright... network problems... eth0 will not connect plugged directly in switch
[01:12] <zsquareplusc> Hilton: usually, wondows is booted by "chainloading" the windows bootloader
[01:12] <bazhang> voconohlinux, what does sudo dhclient eth0 return (do NOT paste here)
[01:13] <DarkKnight> bazhang, ardchoille...the problem is not only with flv....but also with avi.....hey i had the movies...just a few days back wen i watched them...they wer alright....but since the problem has started it appears in that way...before it was fine...so its not problem with the videos....maybe some package....i also downloaded yesterday obama's speech from youtube....wen i watch it on the youtube site..it appears fyn....but wen i downloaded nd watched it...
[01:13] <DarkKnight> .it..the problem is still ther
[01:13] <spolvid> DasEi: So if I want to get to /dev/sda4, the default GRUB root drive should be (hd0,3).
[01:13] <DasEi> tommorris:you installed both as dualboot with separate partis ?
[01:13] <bazhang> DarkKnight, try miro; flv will never look good with any player
[01:13] <DasEi> spolvid: ,  yup, assuming its only one drive or the right one is chosen
[01:13] <spolvid> DasEi: Right?
[01:14] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: please don't do that, it isn't necessary to hilight people every few minutes
[01:14] <spolvid> DasEi: Ok, thanks.
[01:14] <tommorris> DasEi: nope, the Grub menu offers me a choice of which kernel I want to boot. If I choose 2.6.27-7 (the default), it panics
[01:14] <DarkKnight> ardchoille;;; sorry then.....
[01:14] <voconohlinux> bazhang no working leases in persistent database
[01:14] <Hilton> zsquareplusc: There is a "chainloader +1" line... but like I said, I think I set the wrong drive in the 'root' line. I'll look into it when I can get on the computer again.
[01:14] <tommorris> if I choose 24-21 or 24-19, it boots.
[01:15] <Hilton> BBL.
[01:15] <bazhang> voconohlinux, is this through a router or straight to the dsl modem
[01:15] <DarkKnight> ardchoille;;; i deidnt mean to...i thought maybe even u could help me..
[01:15] <DasEi> tommorris:how did you install ibex after having hardy ?
[01:15] <voconohlinux> through a router
[01:15] <voconohlinux> i get dhcp address on wlan0
[01:15] <bazhang> voconohlinux, did you boot with ethernet attached
[01:15] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: I don't use sound or video on any of my machines
[01:15] <voconohlinux> no... is that the whole problem
[01:15] <tommorris> DasEi: initialy using the menu in GNOME. somehow X crashed in the middle of it, so I restarted my box, and finished it up using update manager from the shell
[01:15] <bazhang> voconohlinux, and you are already using wireless?
[01:16] <voconohlinux> yes
[01:16] <groundup> I was just in the middle of a conversation on Skype when I noticed my time was off from back home. I downloaded the NTP update via the clock and all of a sudden my inboard mic stopped working.
[01:16] <bazhang> no wonder
[01:16] <voconohlinux> what?
[01:16] <DarkKnight> ardchoille;; not necessary..but if u know how to solve the problem...then u cn.///
[01:16] <droopsta915> im trying to install ubuntu on an old laptop, i get an error. (Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0, what can I do to continue
[01:16] <bazhang> DarkKnight, get miro
[01:16] <DasEi> tommorris:so it was a dist-upgrade and no additional install from own ibex cd ?
[01:16] <bazhang> DarkKnight, your video card and flv will never make video look very good.
[01:17] <voconohlinux> what do i have to do to get wlan0 and eth0 to work at same time
[01:17] <DarkKnight> bazhang..yes it ther in the repos...i m downloading it....
[01:17] <joebodo> droopsta915 fd0 - floppy ? maybe disable floppy in bios
[01:17] <zsquareplusc> droopsta915: unless you're using the floppy try disabling it in the bios
[01:17] <R0b0t1> I just opened an Obj-C file in the Text Editor, and now regular C files do not display properly. How might I fix this? (Setting the source type does not work) pangloss: The default one, labeled "Text Editor" in the applications menu. It doesn't display properly as in it is still stuck as the Obj-C highlighting style.
[01:17] <bazhang> DarkKnight, miro is the best you can do if you download flv; please dont repeat every two minutes.
[01:17] <Eric2> Hello
[01:17] <bazhang> voconohlinux, from two different isp's?
[01:17] <tommorris> I've just booted on the .24 option on GRUB - gdb is not accepting any keyboard input, so I Ctrl+Alt+F1 and login at shell. nothing beyond the basics work though
[01:18] <voconohlinux> no, same isp
[01:18] <zsquareplusc> R0b0t1: the application is called "gedit" but i cant help you any further on that topic
[01:18] <tommorris> R0b0t1: <flippantAnswer>Use vim!</flippantAnswer>
[01:18] <bazhang> voconohlinux, then you cant
[01:18] <DarkKnight> bazhang...but i think.u didnt get wat i said......i said that the videos which i saw a few days back wer alright...but wen i watch the same videos now...the problem makes me unable 2 watch them
[01:18] <R0b0t1> tommorris: XD
[01:18] <DasEi> !who|tommorris
[01:18] <Eric2> using the private file system is there a way to make it not automaticaly mount the "private" partition?
[01:18] <DasEi> tommorris:so it was a dist-upgrade and no additional install from own ibex, please answer this quest
[01:19] <bazhang> DarkKnight, I know the problem; I have given you a solution-->that intel integrated video card is just not that good.
[01:19] <tommorris> DasEi: yeah, just the dist-upgrade
[01:19] <tony_> i have an HP laptop. How can I get the onboard ATI video drivers installed?
[01:19] <pangloss> R0b0t1: open text editor, then View>>Highlight Mode>>sources
[01:19] <R0b0t1> pangloss: I've tried it but it never worked :(
[01:19] <zigzag71> hello
[01:19] <zsquareplusc> Eric2: you're talking about encryptfs? did you run encryptfs-setup-private
[01:19] <joebodo> tony have you tried system->administration->hardware drivers ?
[01:19] <kicco> ufff. grub gives me error 15 after a semi/broken installation... is "reinstall!" the right answer?
[01:20] <R0b0t1> pangloss: Even going to none and then back to C doesn't work.
[01:20] <joebodo> tony_ have you tried system->administration->hardware drivers ?
[01:20] <kicco> every file has been copied, ubuquity hanged while checking for security upgrades
[01:20] <panfist> i am running 8.04 and i have not been able to get sound working. when the computer is booting up i can hear an audible hiss from my speakers like sound is enabled for a short while during the boot process, but then dead silence when GDM starts up, and no amount of messing in system>preferences>sound has any results
[01:20] <bazhang> kicco, fix grub
[01:20] <zsquareplusc> kicco: probably the easiest. but oyu can also boot live cd and reinstall grub on your hard drive
[01:20] <Eric2> yes but once i log in there is always the private partition symbol on my desktop
[01:20] <tony_> joebodo, it only says wireless in system->administration->hardware drivers!  nothing about video drivers
[01:20] <DasEi> tommorris:I'm not sure if a chroot from hardy (as they use the same / work then, I think you'll got to use the ibex installer cd and then use this for a repair - update/rebuild initramfs and update/grade from a chroot hell
[01:20] <bazhang> !grub | kicco
[01:20] <pangloss> R0b0t1: does the file end in .cpp   ?
[01:20] <R0b0t1> pangloss: No, just .c
[01:20] <groundup> How do I figure out what package the clock just installed? Maybe it is some conflict with that package. I would rather manually update my clock and be able to call home.
[01:21] <CheesyWeasel> "you need a java-enabled browser" how do i get a firefox java-enabled?
[01:21] <bobbob1016> I'm trying to get WoW working with wine.  I managed to get it working fine, but the mouse cursor doesn't show up, anyone have this issue?
[01:21] <tony_> kicco, use Super Grub CD
[01:21] <tommorris> DasEi: I feared that would be the problem.  May not work exactly as it should in 64bit
[01:21] <zsquareplusc> Eric2: so its mounted automatically. as mounts usually appear as icon on the desktop
[01:21] <boris_> 7exit
[01:21] <tony_> joebodo, ok
[01:21] <DasEi> tommorris:o o
[01:21] <tony_> kicco, lol :)
[01:21] <CheesyWeasel> R0b0t1: i don't have 64bit.
[01:21] <Eric2> yes
[01:21] <R0b0t1> pangloss: I do, however, I occasionally find use for the gedit.
[01:21] <R0b0t1> CheesyWeasel: Then it will work fine :)
[01:22] <Eric2> anyway i can not have it auto mount?
[01:22] <Eric2> without not mounting my main drive of course lol :P
[01:22] <CheesyWeasel> R0b0t1: great. how much is it gonna slow me down?
[01:22] <tony_> joebodo, i have  ATI Technologies Inc Radeon IGP 330M/340M/350M.  So what do I pick on  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto?
[01:23] <Dominik1> please help I can not change the brightness of my laptop, what can I do?
[01:23] <R0b0t1> CheesyWeasel: Oh, not much. Just search in synaptic.
[01:23] <chmac> I want to rebind mod4-1/2/3 to different commands, anyone know where they're bound to the display zoom commands?
[01:23] <CheesyWeasel> R0b0t1: awesome. thanks.
[01:23] <pangloss> Dominik1: make sure its enables in your bios
[01:23] <DasEi> tommorris:then I  think you have to try the process again or mention sth like :
[01:23] <DasEi> !usb
[01:24] <DasEi> tommorris:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IntrepidUpgrades
[01:24] <chrziz> I keep getting "Opening password file failed" when I set a shortcut to automaticall enter my login details
[01:24] <dernen> i have a macbook pro with mac osx 10.4 on it, is it posible to resize the partition without formating it so i can duel boot ubuntu on it?
[01:24] <chrziz> Concerning VNC
[01:24] <IdleOne> Dominik1: use the Fn key with the brightness key
[01:24] <linxeh> are there any themes in the repository that dont make every widget waste so much space?
[01:24] <CarlFK>  what kernel .deb do I get with ubuntu-8.10-desktop-amd64.iso    ?
[01:24] <joebodo> tony_ see http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/X11R6.7.0/doc/radeon.4.html
[01:24] <tony_> I have a ATI Technologies Inc Radeon IGP 330M/340M/350M.  So do I pick RadeonDriver or restricted fglrx drivers from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto?
[01:24] <R0b0t1> dernen: Yes, it is. Use bootcamp and act like you would install windows, but installUbuntu.
[01:25] <dernen> R0b0t1: bootcamp is over unless you have leopard
[01:25] <R0b0t1> Or you might not even need to use bootcamp if you just open up the disk utility :)
[01:25] <CheesyWeasel> R0b0t1: hope this works...
[01:25] <codeamuk1> exit
[01:25] <DasEi> dernen:I'm a noob to macosx, but gparted live cd should do that job
[01:25] <tony_> joebodo, too complicated for me. any easier solution?
[01:26] <R0b0t1> dernen: Sorry. Might try the disk utility or gparted -- although gparted will keep Mac from recognizing the current partition setup.
[01:26] <linxeh> DasEi: I really wouldnt advise that on a mac
[01:26] <After_Math> Ive unmouted a point, but when I try to format it it tells me that it contains a mounted file system. And force umount is not working

[01:26] <naxa> hi

[01:28] <naxa> is there a way to automatically modify sent-out headers on the whole system? I have vodafone connect now with modem "huawei e220" and vodafone has data compression enabled via a transparent proxy. i have to modify sent out headers to say "no-cache", but is there a way to do this globally? i could only find a firefox addon for this, what not helps non-firefox programs.

[01:29] <tony_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI  <-- doesnt have 8.10 support! why?  it only has insructions for 8.04 and lower
[01:29] <van> After_Math: use qtparted to format it much easier
[01:29] <usser> damaltor, does it need x???
[01:29] <usser> damaltor, says who?
[01:29] <voconohlinux_> omg that was the most painful experience getting virtualbox to run with network
[01:29] <After_Math> van k
[01:29] <karlmarx20> Does anybody know anything about upgrading moin
[01:29] <DasEi> tony_:which ati ?
[01:29] <voconohlinux_> there's no way to run wireless and wired at same time
[01:29] <voconohlinux_> ?
[01:29] <Developer08> http://pastebin.com/m17c82e86 <- that is my problem
[01:29] <tommorris> tony_: I just installed 8.10 on a machine with an ATI X800XT card, and it autodetects and installs flgrx.
[01:29] <DarkKnight> bazhang..iinstalled miro...but the problem still exits
[01:30] <damaltor> usser: well, i downloaded the standalone version, installed as described, and on starting it died badly because it wanted to find display resolution
[01:30] <DarkKnight> bazhang..iinstalled miro...but the problem still exists
[01:30] <DasEi> karlmarx20:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IntrepidUpgrades  or other versions ?  fresh install is always safer
[01:30] <bazhang> DarkKnight, then watch flv on youtube; as I told you flv dont look that good.
[01:31] <bazhang> voconohlinux_, from a single computer with a single isp? NO.
[01:31] <DarkKnight> bazhang...the problem is not with the video...but some internal system probelm
[01:31] <usser> damaltor, are u using this guide? http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2008/09/how-to-install-subsonic-ubuntu-hardy.html
[01:31] <luddite> hi all - i finally got hibernate working on the laptop(had to enable the swap into the kernel) but there are no Progress bars for hibernate/resume. Any ideas?
[01:31] <bazhang> DarkKnight, it sounds like a hardware problem then.
[01:31] <DasEi> tommorris:still reading ?
[01:31] <chmac> Got it, I needed to install compizconfig-settigs-manager and then disable Enhanced Desktop Zoom :)
[01:32] <tony_> tommorris, it didnt for me
[01:32] <obiwan177> this is the support forum for ubuntu?
[01:32] <genesismachine> my setup on my server is borked. Is there a way to install packages with the liveCD and then reboot? My display is messed up, but I think if I can just install an ssh server on there, I can at least ssh in from my laptop and figure out what the heck is going on...
[01:32] <damaltor> usser: yes i did, but it didnt work. it only showed a blank page on port 8180. there is one difference: while my host system downst have x, i used firefox from my local pc here with http://ip-to-server:8180 wich showed a blank page.
[01:32] <After_Math> van cant seem to find where my sd card is mounted, and /dev/sda1 is my filesytems 0_o
[01:32] <obiwan177> or channel?
[01:32] <tony_> tommorris,  I have a ATI Technologies Inc Radeon IGP 330M/340M/350M.  know how I can install drivers for it?tom
[01:32] <karsten> !topic | obiwan177
[01:32] <genesismachine> worst case, I don't need a gui, as it can remain headless after initial setup...
[01:32] <DarkKnight> bazhang..nope not hardware...may be with packages....???
[01:33] <obiwan177> thanks, im an irc newb

[01:33] <bazhang> DasEi, please dont
[01:33] <After_Math> van figure out its mount point, like where in /dev/ it is located and trying to format it
[01:33] <panfist> i am running 8.04 and i have not been able to get sound working. when the computer is booting up i can hear an audible hiss from my speakers like sound is enabled for a short while during the boot process, but then dead silence when GDM starts up, and no amount of messing in system>preferences>sound has any results, also when i try to install drivers from the manufacturer i get "cp: cannot create link `/usr/lib64/libasound.so': No s

[01:33] <karsten> voconohlinux_: wired/wireless what?
[01:33] <en1gma> do i need to reconfigure X or is it done automatically
[01:33] <usser> damaltor, when u get a prompt type bunch of nonsense while pressing enter it should spit out some html code
[01:33] <genesismachine> voconohlinux: yes. what's the problem?
[01:34] <bazhang> voconohlinux_, sure
[01:34] <pangloss> voconohlinux: click on the network manager applet and click what network you want to use
[01:34] <van> After_Math: if it detected by your machine, it should be in /dev/ you can know it with fdisk -l
[01:34] <DasEi> bazhang: tell about channel ??
[01:34] <voconohlinux_> i have to either boot plugged in to wired or boot with wireless on.... there's no in between
[01:34] <bazhang> voconohlinux_, but to have both on a single computer from a single isp no
[01:34] <panfist> sudo apt-get install linux-source
[01:34] <panfist> whoops lol

[01:35] <bazhang> voconohlinux_, sure you can
[01:35] <karsten> panfist: Among other things:  check your mixer levels.  Either your GUI mixer / audio panel app, or run aumix.
[01:35] <crweb> is anyone else having problems with cdrom not staying ejected. I can barely get a disc in and out with ubuntu running?
[01:35] <After_Math> fdisk -l
[01:35] <voconohlinux_> how?
[01:35] <After_Math> woops :)
[01:35] <bazhang> voconohlinux_, on two computers
[01:35] <damaltor> usser: is it a problem that there are several apache servers running on that computer?
[01:35] <turtle_> how do I use the console to test my connection speed/
[01:35] <DasEi> bazhang : was for info only
[01:36] <arooni> once i have openjdk-6-doc installed on ubuntu hardy... how do i access it?
[01:36] <panfist> karsten i have been messing with mixer settings all weekend. i have tried sending audio over HDMI and analog. i havent been able to successfully install any drivers besides those that were installed during the ubuntu installation
[01:36] <karsten> panfist: You do have sound at startup?
[01:36] <bazhang> DasEi, please use the topic command or just say yes to him
[01:36] <voconohlinux_> .... this is the source of dispair... how can i run vm's on separate vlan and still get internet access to ubuntu laptop?
[01:36] <usser> damaltor, maybe... if u already have apache theres no need to install tomcat
[01:36] <DasEi> bazhang : ok
[01:37] <damaltor> usser: telnet: could not resolve localhost:8180/telnet: Name or service not known
[01:37] <karsten> panfist: Does your user belong to the 'audio' group?  Can root run sound programs?
[01:37] <usser> damaltor, if u know how to setup virtualhosts in apache it shouldnt be a problem
[01:37] <usser> damaltor, telnet localhost:8180
[01:37] <panfist> karsten i am using 8.04 server 64 bit. before the splash screen i see some startup text scrolling by and i can hear an audible hiss during this part of the boot, and then no other sound
[01:37] <tony_> I have a ATI Technologies Inc Radeon IGP 330M/340M/350M.  anyone know how I can install drivers for it?
[01:37] <karsten> voconohlinux_: virtual bridging, being the short answer.
[01:37] <meoblast001> question
[01:37] <usser> damaltor, from the server itself
[01:37] <damaltor> usser: thought about that... can you tell me how to put subsonic into a apache-ish environment?
[01:37] <pangloss> !ask | meoblast001
[01:37] <meoblast001> my proftp server only works when im connecting from my house
[01:37] <panfist> karsten i have not tried running any sound programs as root, so far i have just been testing in system>preferences>sound
[01:37] <karsten> panfist: That hiss may not be system sound.
[01:38] <damaltor> usser: that was a connection from the server itself
[01:38] <meoblast001> even if its on my public IP address.. but not from out of my house
[01:38] <voconohlinux_> alright, setting up bridging for virtualbox took close to an hour... how do i set up virtual bridging
[01:38] <panfist> karsten well if my analog cables between speaker and motherboard are not plugged in i dont hear it
[01:38] <karsten> panfist: I generally install 'sox' which includes the 'play' command.  That should be able to play any sound file.
[01:38] <karsten> panfist: Hrm.
[01:38] <bobbob1016> I'm trying to get WoW working with wine.  I managed to get it working fine, but the mouse cursor doesn't show up, anyone have this issue?
[01:38] <pangloss> meoblast001: is your modem set to port forward?
[01:38] <meoblast001> yes
[01:38] <usser> damaltor, oh my bad telnet localhost 8180
[01:38] <usser> damaltor, sorry
[01:38] <bazhang> voconohlinux_, this is for vbox? why did you not mention that earlier?
[01:38] <panfist> karsten how would i add myself to the audio group
[01:38] <damaltor> usser: aah ok =)
[01:38] <DasEi> tony_: for hardy I could help, but not for ibex yet
[01:39] <pangloss> meoblast001: does your ftp server use dydns?
[01:39] <meoblast001> pangloss: like i said.. even if i use my public ip address.. it still works at my house... just not outside my house
[01:39] <voconohlinux_> yes for vbox... i haven't figured out how to bridge connections for vmware player so i went and tried vbox
[01:39] <karsten> panfist: sudo adduser <your user ID> audio
[01:39] <karsten> panfist: Log off and back in for it to take effect.
[01:39] <voconohlinux_> i'd rather be using my vmware appliances, but don't know how to set up networking with ubuntu OS
[01:39] <meoblast001> pangloss: if i connect to ftp.mysticgalaxies.com:8081 from my house.. it works... if i connect to ftp.mysticgalaxies.com:8081 from another house.. it wont work.. is it because of a lag or something?
[01:39] <panfist> karsten i am already a member of the audio group, so that's not the issue
[01:39] <meoblast001> pangloss: it even gets to the point of asking for the password
[01:39] <bazhang> voconohlinux_, that is a whole different story than just a single computer with two ip addresses
[01:40] <karsten> panfist: Ok.
[01:40] <karsten> panfist: You've read the audio factoid?
[01:40] <pangloss> meoblast001: hm wierd
[01:40] <damaltor> usser: no html code... just nothing :/
[01:40] <karsten> panfist: Gotta split.

[01:40] <damaltor> usser: will double check wait
[01:41] <CheesyWeasel> i cant get java to work.
[01:41] <voconohlinux_> eh...?!  any help with getting vm's for vmware player to get network access would be appreciated... otherwise i might have to go back to microsoft for virtual pc
[01:41] <colton> Hi, how could I run a program in the console if I dont know its name?
[01:41] <CheesyWeasel> it wont run this java applet.
[01:41] <Flannel> colton: Find out its name
[01:41] <damaltor> usser: yes it is.
[01:41] <Dominik1> I can not change brightness, please help. Laptop: Sony Vaio VGN-CR507E, Fn key doesn't work, brightness applet doesn't work, xbacklight doesn't work
[01:41] <pangloss> colton: you cant
[01:41] <voconohlinux_> or vmware player on xp
[01:41] <Flannel> colton: Do you know what it might be? or what it starts with?
[01:41] <damaltor> usser: i have apache managed with ispconfig, so vhosts are no real problems i think.
[01:41] <colton> For instance "f-spot photo manager" how in the world could I find the name that I would type in?
[01:42] <pangloss> colton: google
[01:42] <colton> is it like: "fspotphotoManager" or fspot manager
[01:42] <obiwan177> colton: i would try something like "fspot"
[01:42] <Flannel> colton: Or have an icon somewhere for it?  Ah, you can look at the link in the menu, or just try stuff.  tab completion comes in handy here.  (type something, hit tab twice, see what the options are)
[01:42] <usser> damaltor, hang on, are u sure u did everything correctly?
[01:42] <obiwan177> flannel: what client are you using?
[01:42] <easotokr> hi, guys  any help with evolution? I can't make it ask me for the password i tried reinstalling and everything
[01:42] <Flannel> obiwan177: irssi
[01:42] <bazhang> colton, its f-spot
[01:42] <chrziz> Is there a way to add a command to a launcher to tell it to run the program as root?
[01:42] <obiwan177> ahhh
[01:43] <After_Math> where can I find a mount point on /dev for a sd card? what command do I use?!!?!?!!
[01:43] <usser> damaltor, do ls /var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps/
[01:44] <Flannel> chrziz: gksu command
[01:44] <DasEi> After_Math:if its not automounted, you'll have to set a directory, in /media  for example
[01:44] <WebcamWonder> !register
[01:44] <damaltor> usser: well, think so. did step by step what is meant there.
[01:44] <damaltor> usser: just did. subsonic.war is in there
[01:44] <bruenig> !info python-feedparser
[01:44] <After_Math> DasEi, yes, It automounts but Im trying to find the location where it shows up
[01:44] <mastrgamr> can someone tell me how to delete a directory, even it it has content in the terminal
[01:44] <After_Math> DasEi, like the mount /dev/? /mount/disk
[01:44] <chrziz> Flannel: thank you very much
[01:44] <DasEi> After_Math:mount        in terminal
[01:44] <After_Math> DasEi, not sure where to find it in /dev
[01:44] <meoblast001> anyone else know what's up with my FTP server?
[01:45] <usser> damaltor, hm i dont know whats going on there
[01:45] <fosco_> mastrgamr, rm -rf directory
[01:45] <King> hi!
[01:45] <damaltor> usser: me neither... do you know how i put subsonic into a apache subdomain/vhost?
[01:45] <DasEi> After_Math:found it with mount ?  or have a icon for it ?
[01:46] <mastrgamr> thanks fosco
[01:46] <After_Math> DasEi, does not show up in mount
[01:46] <After_Math> DasEi, have icon on dsktop for it
[01:46] <panfist> i'm trying to install sound card drivers and i got the following error: configure: error: this packages requires a curses library
[01:46] <DasEi> After_Math:right click icon,  tab to the right shoes you
[01:46] <damaltor> usser: may i query you?
[01:47] <usser> damaltor, i've never done it. i guess you can extract war file and go from there
[01:47] <usser> damaltor, yea sure
[01:47] <CheesyWeasel> why does ubuntu say apt-get is running when its not.
[01:47] <easotokr> hi, anyone had problems with icons INSIDE applications?
[01:48] <kicco> uhm. ubiquity hangs during installation. switching, it answers to ANY command "Input/Output Error"
[01:48] <After_Math> DasEi, where it says connection?
[01:48] <catonano> Hell, people
[01:48] <After_Math> DasEi, mount point is /media/Untitled
[01:48] <catonano> I'd love to ask a question
[01:48] <voconohlinux_> if i add vmnet# to this line... will they connect?  bridge_ports eth0 vbox0 vbox1 vbox2 vmnet0 vmnet8
[01:48] <Flannel> !ask | catonano
[01:48] <OddlotX4> Hey guys.  Quick one.  What's the Ubuntu equivalent of SpeedFan?
[01:49] <catonano> On my Asus laptop I upgraded to Intrepid from Hardy, with the update manager
[01:49] <KingOfDos> Does someone here own a SB Live 1024? And knows "what" device the CD input is?
[01:49] <panfist> i saw a forum post about my sound problem that says to run the command "sudo m-a update,preapre" but it says the m-a command is not found. does anyone know what m-a is or does? because it's hard to google for "m-a"
[01:49] <DasEi> After_Math:so got it,  device see : sudo  fdisk -l

[01:50] <CheesyWeasel> that was weird. apt-get was still running for some reason. i need to switch back to windows. i dont have the time to fix ubuntu all the time.
[01:50] <After_Math> DasEi, that only list /dev/sda1 which is my hd filesystem
[01:50] <fosco_> panfist, for ncurses lib just execute sudo apt-get install libncurses5
[01:50] <KingOfDos> I'm trying to create a live stream of my TV card. But so far I cannot find the correct device. Tested /dev/snd/pcm* (yes, all off them!).
[01:51] <KingOfDos> The soundcard is working when i'll use vlc to play a mp3 file
[01:51] <panfist> thanks
[01:51] <catonano> THEN I used remastersys to make a live cd out of my Intrepid system. Then I went to a Dell Vostro 1700 laptop with my cd and it worked. But the I tried on the Dell with a freshly downloaded cd from the ubuntu site. That did NOT boot !! Failed to start gdm !; So my question is: so the 2 cds were carring 2 diferent systems ? How is taht possible ?
[01:51] <DasEi> After_Math:hum?       try lsusb  (controller usually does sd)
[01:51] <panfist> fosco_ what's weird is that is already installed...
[01:51] <hal14450> any freenode staff around ?
[01:51] <doc|home> hello, anyone know if I burn an avi to a dvd under brasero if it will play in a dvd player?
[01:51] <KingOfDos> but still, i just don't know what device i must choose as cd_in (i'd connected my tvcard audio_out to the cd_in).
[01:51] <After_Math> DasEi, nope, but I did find it from a forum I believe, its under /dev/mmcblk0
[01:51] <ardchoille> hal14450: /stats p
[01:51] <fosco_> panfist, maybe you need the devel version
[01:52] <hal14450> ardchoille, already did that
[01:52] <ardchoille> ok
[01:52] <panfist> fosco_ ok im trying that
[01:52] <DasEi> After_Math:but fdisk should list it (as root)
[01:52] <hal14450> i wanted to ask one a question in pm that is active
[01:52] <quagga> hal14450: there isn't anyone in #freenode?
[01:53] <hal14450> quagga, i didn't join there yet
[01:53] <hal14450> heh not a real channel
[01:53] <DasEi> After_Math:but fdisk should list it (as root),  try look in /etc/mtab
[01:54] <Shovi> I just updated from 8.04 to 8.10 and now my Ethernet does not work! any ideas?
[01:54] <hal14450> Shovi, you'll need to be more verbose than that
[01:55] <hal14450> as in what does ifconfig say?
[01:55] <voconohlinux_> i could really use the help  all vm's start and say this:  could not open /dev/vmnet8   -- how do i fix this?
[01:55] <hal14450> etc etc etc
[01:55] <yoyoned> voconohlinux_: start the vmware service
[01:55] <panfist> ok i made it to the next step installing my sound card, and now i see that i wants me to close all ALSA apps...how can i be sure i do this
[01:55] <Shovi> Idk, i was wondering if it was a common problem, hal14450
[01:56] <dataflow> so, did they take flash player off the repos?

[01:57] <voconohlinux_> yes, over and over
[01:57] <kitche> dataflow: well flashplayer-mozilla probably
[01:57] <hal14450> Shovi, it pays to be verbose

[01:59] <hal14450> oh well you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink

[02:01] <luddite> there are no Progress bars for hibernate/resume. Any ideas?
[02:01] <unop> quagga, you'd need to build a debian package - see the debian package maintainer's guide.
[02:01] <d_> does any know if i can use no xv in gstreamer. but use x11/nv in fullscreen mode?
[02:01] <panfist> the installation of the sound card drivers completed but I still have no sound. the last few lines of output were that /usr/lib64/libsound was missing but it is there..then it ran alsaconf and the test sound never played. i re-ran alsaconf on my own a few times and i still can't get any sound to play
[02:01] <quagga> unop: thanks
[02:01] <tom_> every body here has ubuntu lunix on thier computer?

[02:22] <augie> I have recently installed ibex on centrino laptop, the wireless status light keeps blinking and pidgin doesn't work
[02:22] <unique> yes its a laptop
[02:22] <IdleOne> Marfi: ummmm nm that is a file renamer
[02:22] <Rev> Eulalia, your version of intrepid is up to date?
[02:22] <chuy> Marfi, try ffmpeg
[02:22] <IdleOne> Marfi: I jumped the gun there
[02:22] <d_> button or switch
[02:22] <d_> ?
[02:22] <n8tuser> augie-> are you able to access the internet?
[02:22] <unique> switch
[02:22] <augie> n8tuser, yes, even this xchat, but not pidgin
[02:23] <d_> do you see your network when you left click on the network icon?
[02:23] <Eulalia> Rev, not sure. The laptop is new to me (used), and I just installed ubuntu yesterday :p
[02:23] <unique> yes
[02:23] <augie> n8tuser, it works on lan
[02:23] <d_> click on your network and tell me what pops up?
[02:23] <augie> n8tuser, but pidgin just doesn't work on wireless, and the status light keeps blinking
[02:23] <n8tuser> augie then perhaps google why pidgin does not work
[02:23] <unique> i have 2 sets of drivers in the restrected drivers when i when to disactivate them they both say still in use
[02:24] <TiMiDo> augie: any errors message?
[02:24] <macvr> hi all... i want to reinstall the ubuntu 8.10[my upgrade from 8.04 had a few problems], i have a separate root and home partition... so when i reinstall will my custom programs work? or would i have to reinstall all of them?
[02:24] <augie> n8tuser, it only doesn't work on wireless, do you know if the driver for centrino chipset works properly?
[02:24] <Rev> Eulalia, ah ok. could you go to system / admin / propriotary hardware drivers
[02:24] <n8tuser> augie-> if the other apps allows you access to the internet then it should not be the issue, do you have a firewall?
[02:24] <unique> i click on my  network it trys to connect then asks for the password
[02:24] <Rev> Eulalia, no its just called Hardware drivers sorry
[02:24] <d_> disable both.  restart. and enable only one
[02:24] <Dominik1> how can permission be denied if I am sudo
[02:24] <n8tuser> augie-> its not your chipset
[02:24] <augie> TiMiDo, n8tuser, no firewall, no error msg it's just that pidgin won't connect
[02:24] <Rev> tell me if the ATI propretary driver is in use or not
[02:24] <Dominik1> i thought sudo = root = god
[02:24] <augie> and the status light keeps blinking
[02:24] <TiMiDo> augie: try running pidgin on terminal and see if you get any errors what's so ever.
[02:24] <d_> what options can you click on
[02:24] <unique> ok be back in a little
[02:24] <d_> ?
[02:24] <n8tuser> augie-> you have to setup your pidgin correctly, i dont use pidgin
[02:24] <unique> um
[02:25] <jutt> Can anyone help?  When i try to play an xvid, it is playing but i see flashing, my video card is ati radeon x1900xtx, i installed driver using Adminstration -> Hardware Drivers
[02:25] <ardchoille> Dominik1: On what? a file?
[02:25] <Eulalia> Rev: No properietary drivers are in use on this system.
[02:25] <Rev> ok me neither
[02:25] <augie> TiMiDo, n8tuser, what I mean is that pidgin will load up but just can't connect
[02:25] <unique> it says wireless security, key, wep index. authentication
[02:25] <Dominik1> ardchoille: i am sudo echo 4 >> file
[02:25] <rww> jutt: I have the exact same problem. I was never able to figure it out :(. Are you using the fglrx driver too?
[02:25] <Rev> we should try to restore the effect while using the properiatrary drivers on it
[02:25] <Rev> that could be the cause
[02:25] <jutt> rww yes i am
[02:25] <chuy> jutt, play where?
[02:26] <Guest87699> hallo
[02:26] <Rev> at least, tell me if ever you freeze in the next 15 minutes ok
[02:26] <jutt> i tried media player, vlc, gnome media player
[02:26] <jutt> plus a lot more
[02:26] <Rev> Eulalia, (and also, if you dont freeze anymore)
[02:26] <joebodo> !ati | jutt
[02:26] <Eulalia> Rev, have time for one more question?
[02:26] <Guest87699> i'm new to this stuff
[02:26] <ardchoille> Dominik1: the ">>" is a redirect, it won't work because sudo doesn't carry over, you need to use tee
[02:26] <Eulalia> :P
[02:26] <joebodo> jutt the link has info on flashing video
[02:26] <augie> TiMiDo, n8tuser, and I don't have any firewall, it's a recently installed ibex, but I do have a router with nat

[02:35] <Stormx2> DVA5912: You might have some luck running gamemaker under wine
[02:35] <saleel> I have flash 10 installed in firefox: it works perfectly. I want to install flash 9 in opera or some other browser. Anyway to do this?
[02:35] <Eulalia> Rev: I froze again.
[02:35] <ardchoille> Dominik1: Not sure how to make a launcher for that. is that something you only need to do one time?
[02:35] <Eulalia> Rev: The caps and scroll lock leds were flashing
[02:36] <easotokr> chuy: I already tried that with no success
[02:36] <DVA5912> Stormx2: From what i can tell many other people have try ed this attempt as well, but the fact remains that wine isnt going to support directx witch is required for Game Maker to run.
[02:36] <PeskyJ> what's a good program for monitoring for wireless networks?
[02:36] <kuroyoma> Is there anyway to put a password requirement on a folder
[02:36] <Stormx2> Dominik1: Couple of problems. Firstly, you'll need to use "gksu" rather than sudo. Secondly I don't think the "command" bit of the launcher dialog is a proper shell. hence, piping won't work
[02:37] <ardchoille> kuroyoma: you could just remove read/write permissions for all others except your username and no one can access it anyway
[02:37] <PeskyJ> kuroyoma: the best way is to use an encrypted file system... go to add/remove and find a program called CryptKeeper, install it
[02:37] <chuy> Dominik1, create a bash script, it is easy, just a line that is called the shabang, and your command in the second line
[02:37] <Dominik1> ardchoille: it is to adjust brightness, I am using sony they don't have brightness adjust support, so I have to do it manually, now I want to make launchers for my GF for brightness 1,4,7
[02:37] <chuy> Dominik1, and then give execute permissions to the file
[02:37] <Stormx2> Dominik1, if I were you, I'd make a new file, somewhere in your home folder. On the first line, put "#!/bin/bash" (without the quotes). On the second, put that command (with the sudo/gksu substitution). Save it. Make it executable, then in the "command" bit, locate the file you just saved
[02:38] <PeskyJ> kuroyoma: then run it and it appears in your system tray as a set of keys icon, then left-click on it and create an encrypted directory, each time you want to mount this directory you will need to enter a password
[02:38] <xxSimxx> Hi, i have a problem with the compilation (alsa driver) (alc888 realtekhd)
[02:38] <francesco__> joebodo: The problem is that I have the same problem with my pdf files in the other partition where I have Windows with Acrobat reader. Could the problem be that the pdf itself is too "heavy"?
[02:38] <xxSimxx> i have 2 errors
[02:38] <saleel> I have flash 10 installed in firefox: it works perfectly. I want to install flash 9 in opera or some other browser. Anyway to do this?
[02:38] <Stormx2> saleel: I doubt it.
[02:38] <chuy> easotokr, if that doesnt work then it is a bug, try removing your user configuration files
[02:38] <Dominik1> chuy: can you walk me through on how to create that file

[02:39] <wos> how do you find out what your package manager is?
[02:39] <whochismo> does anybody knows how to restore the audio configuration in ubuntu? I tried to install the realtek drivers manually, and now all the sound is broken
[02:39] <gregor_> possible to shut down the computer when Transmission finished downloads?
[02:39] <nite_johnboy> If you run "passwd" in Terminal can you change your original password you used when installing Ubuntu ? ?
[02:39] <Stormx2> wos, the package manager for ubuntu is apt.
[02:39] <chuy> Dominik1, Stormx2 already told you whats the first line, 1.-open gedit or another text editor, 2.- put "#!/bin/bash" in the first line (without the quotes), 3.-put your command in the second line
[02:39] <wos> aptitude?
[02:39] <Stormx2> nite_johnboy, yes.
[02:40] <DVA5912> Well is there any type of game maker for ubuntu?
[02:40] <easotokr> chuy: I'll try to see what happened
[02:40] <wos> apt-get?
[02:40] <Stormx2> wos: Both work.
[02:40] <joebodo> francesco__ i dont experience the same issue - i use the default pdf viewer in ubuntu without problem (with large files)
[02:40] <pangloss> DVA5912: Game maker?
[02:40] <whochismo> there's any way to automatically reconfigure the audio settings?
[02:40] <ardchoille> wos: Those are "clients" but they still use apt under the hood
[02:40] <chuy> Dominik1, save the file, if you are comfortable with terminal, run chmod +x name_of_file
[02:40] <Stormx2> wos: apt-get seems to be used for most simple stuff.
[02:40] <wos> Stormx2:  how do you find out which one you have?
[02:40] <DVA5912> pangloss, for Ubuntu!!!
[02:40] <jutt> joebodo can i PM you?  I tried instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI but the second instruction is giving me an error
[02:40] <wos> how do you find out which one you have?
[02:41] <Stormx2> wos: Ubuntu installations have both apt-get and aptitude installed.
[02:41] <LinuxNewbie> Ok i have some hardware questions I am running windows atm and want to do the switch to linux but i have seen on some good searchs that my laptop has linux issues (Dell Inspirion 1525 none webcam Version)  is there any were i can find hardware support
[02:41] <pangloss> DVA5912: are you a programmer...?
[02:41] <chuy> Dominik1, otherwise, right click the file, and look for permissions, and click on execute permissions
[02:41] <thiefness> Can anyone help me to get my realtek ralink usb wireless card to work in intrepid ibex?

[02:41] <nite_johnboy> Stormx2: I thought so - could not remember for sure - Thank you...
[02:41] <joebodo> jutt sure
[02:41] <ardchoille> wos: you should have both aptitude and apt-get, but you should stick with one or the other so as not to get confused with commands
[02:41] <PeskyJ> is gnome really configurable, for example changing the windows UI behaviour etc. - more than what's just in the system->preferences->windows tool?

[02:42] <Stormx2> PeskyJ, yep, but it's more "Hidden" than in KDE, or so the argument goes.
[02:42] <pangloss> DVA5912: alot of game are written in hard core programming languages.... I dont think you know what you are getting into..
[02:42] <PeskyJ> saleel: flash is a plugin so I don't see why not...
[02:42] <TiMiDo> saleel: well you could if you have no problems with dependencies.
[02:42] <gregor_> possible to shut down the computer when Transmission finished downloads?
[02:42] <PeskyJ> Stormx2: how do I run the tool or maul with it?
[02:42] <Stormx2> pangloss, lol at "hard core"
[02:42] <thiefness> Can anyone help me to get my realtek ralink usb wireless card to work in intrepid ibex?
[02:42] <saleel> PeskyJ & TiMiDo how would I go about doing this?

[02:42] <Stormx2> PeskyJ, I have no idea what you just said
[02:42] <Stormx2> !repeat | thiefness
[02:42] <chuy> PeskyJ, System - Preferences - Appearance
[02:42] <Dominik1> chuy: I did it, but it did not work :(, no error message, nothing, just not the desired result
[02:42] <n8tuser> gregor_-> yes its possible, even before it finishes
[02:42] <DVA5912> pangloss, probably not. But since it needs to be a big game it might as well be written in code. Got any good IDE in mind?
[02:43] <Rev> Eulalia, yeah i saw it
[02:43] <Rev> then im sorry i have no idea
[02:43] <thiefness> it wasn't that quickly, chill out
