[06:08] <phayro> dependency probs it says
[06:08] <Possum> titun, actually I'm not sure grub-install will work... you can try it.. it's grub-install <your_hd>
[06:08] <peepsalot> phayro, what dependencies?
[06:08] <madman91> wilo: are you on a live cd?
[06:08] <titun> Possum, in my case hd0
[06:08] <Possum> titun, that will be /dev/hda or something
[06:08] <titun> oh
[06:08] <phayro> it syas tht ndiswrapper utils is not isntalled
[06:08] <peepsalot> phayro, if it lists them all, you will need to get those also on the usb key and install them first
[06:08] <happyguy> titun: ok, i would load from a ubuntu CD if you have one, but knoppix may have what you need
[06:08] <Possum> titun, use hd0 if you use the grub shell
[06:08] <wilo> madman91: nah i have had a hdd install of ubuntu for a while
[06:08] <madman91> wilo: then install gparted
[06:08] <wilo> i just need to resize my current partions
[06:09] <madman91> wilo: sudo aptitude install gparted
[06:09] <luisgmarine> Hello I'm about to amd 64 version, anyone here using it that can point me to a Ubuntu Guide for 64-bit?  That might explain what I need to get Cedega, Azureus, Frostwire, and Flash + Firefox working?
[06:09] <wilo> madman91: yeah im doing that now :)
[06:09] <madman91> wilo: oh.. i thought you chose fdisk :)
[06:09] <titun> Possum, cannot create directory ; read only
[06:09] <happyguy> titun: in ubuntu it's System->Administration->Gnome Partition Editor
[06:09] <XLV_feisty> any temp hardware monitoring front-end for ubuntu? gkrellm or whatever?
[06:09] <phayro> peepsalot do you know how to install from the tar file?
[06:09] <peepsalot> phayro, this page has list of all packages for Edgy http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/allpackages
[06:09] <happyguy> titun: then check for any exclamation marks and read the error messages
[06:09] <Possum> titun, err... run it as root (use sudo)
[06:09] <titun> happyguy, ok
[06:09] <titun> Possum, oh....
[06:09] <wilo> madman91: ok i installed it, where bouts is gparted in the menu, or is it a cli app?
[06:10] <phayro> peepsalot that is what i was looking for
[06:10] <Talla> ok so i have this creative live cam where do i get ubuntu drivers
[06:10] <peepsalot> phayro, from source?  you could do that but why?
[06:10] <madman91> wilo: you can start it with .. gksudo gparted
[06:10] <Talla> anyone?
[06:10] <madman91> wilo: but its in the menus as well
[06:10] <peepsalot> what tar file?
[06:10] <Possum> titun, and you might want to listen to the others about gparted or fdisk.. reinstalling grub _might_ work, but if it's an FS error it won't do anything
[06:10] <madman91> wilo: system-->administration-->gnome partition editor
[06:10] <phayro> ndiswrapper 1.43.tar.gz
[06:10] <happyguy> lol
[06:11] <fiXXXerMet> Anyone here use conky?
[06:11] <t3hfr3ak> I need help setting up my TV connected to my computer VIA SVIDEO
[06:11] <LtL> dhtechs - try here.. http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_beryl_ati_radeon   worked on my 9000
[06:11] <wilo> madman91: thankyou
[06:11] <titun> Possum, i don't think its a fs error... everything was fine,,.... so i need to reinstall/fix grub
[06:11] <Goldfisch> luisgmarine: I have ubuntu on an amd64 machine. Most of the stuff works out of the box. I used the 64-bit versions of everything. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341727 shows how to get flash9 working.
[06:12] <titun> Possum, but the problem is that original cd from which i installed Ubuntu won't boot as livecd now
[06:12] <madman91> wilo: no problem
[06:12] <t3hfr3ak> titun; what error you getting?
[06:12] <Goldfisch> luisgmarine: I have edgy, but I'm upgrading to feisty right now.
[06:12] <Possum> titun, that's not good... try running an md5sum on it if you get a chance
[06:12] <wilo> madman91: I dont remember how set up my partions on this box
[06:12] <titun> t3hfr3ak, it searches for a long time..the orange bar
[06:12] <titun> then a lots of numbered errors
[06:13] <madman91> wilo: what do you mean?
[06:13] <luisgmarine> Goldfisch, Is there a ubuntu guide for 64-bit?  I know cedega gives 64-bit .debs , so thats taken care of.  But I'm a bit worried about java and Azureus, I like to share a lot of torrents ....
[06:13] <titun> no text which i can understand
[06:13] <madman91> wilo: cant you see them in gparted?
[06:13] <t3hfr3ak> titun: hmmm... try running memtest
[06:13] <wilo> well i have a 40gb hdd and a 80gb hdd
[06:13] <titun> t3hfr3ak, ok..... trying to reboot and check
[06:13] <yimmmy> how do i download stuff
[06:13] <danny3793> will pci=nocpi work in tituns case?
[06:13] <bruenig> yimmmy, wget
[06:13] <yimmmy> i have a hdd tahat wont let me
[06:13] <wilo> but im not sure how i set up the partions
[06:14] <yimmmy> fuctuff on it
[06:14] <DarkRAM> Can anyone help with USB drives no longer mounting automaticly?
[06:14] <danny3793> pci=noacpi*
[06:14] <madman91> wilo: you cant see the other harddrive?
[06:14] <phayro> ok peepsalot we are close i can feel it
[06:14] <yimmmy> what it wget>?
[06:14] <wilo> atm, gparted shows /dev/hda1/
[06:14] <Crazytom> what's a good webserver i can use that will help me set up a password protected http proxy?  apache is not working for me at all and #apache is practically worthless
[06:14] <wilo> which is the 80gb one
[06:14] <peepsalot> phayro, i gope so ;)
[06:14] <peepsalot> hope
[06:14] <t3hfr3ak> anyone know how to setup a TV connected through SVIDEO on 7.04?
[06:14] <wilo> madman91: i cant see the other hard drive :(
[06:14] <madman91> wilo: its in a tab.. top right corner
[06:14] <madman91> of gparted
[06:15] <maddy> making apache2 under ubuntu-server working is impossible!
[06:15] <madman91> wilo: choose one or the other.. do you see what i mean?
[06:15] <pyrohotdog> Where can I find a script/program to change my wallpaper at certain intervals?
[06:15] <Goldfisch> luisgmarine: Well, I don't use cedega, because I really am not into gaming. My amd64 is used primarily for MythTV, not java development. I haven't needed a "64-bit guide" since I migrated off of Debian onto Ubuntu. But that is because there wasn't much support back then for 64-bit.
[06:15] <yimmmy> my spare hdd when i try to put a file on it it says you are not allowed to do this
[06:15] <luisgmarine> Goldfisch, ok
[06:15] <bruenig> pyrohotdog, you could write one
[06:15] <phayro> ok i grabbed the common and the utils which one first?
[06:15] <luisgmarine> Goldfisch, I can't find a decent rock solid guide like Ubuntu Guide for 64-bit, I'm not sure if the 32-bit applies for 64-bit too
[06:15] <madman91> wilo: so.. whats happening?
[06:15] <bruenig> pyrohotdog, just have it move different pngs into the one that the background is looking for and have it run in cron
[06:15] <pyrohotdog> bruenig: thought of that, don't think I know quite enough.
[06:16] <phayro> ok got common and utils in
[06:16] <pyrohotdog> bash script?
[06:16] <DudeManJer> danny3793: thanks for this.. I am now using ubuntu.. nice OS =)
[06:16] <danny3793> luisgmarine: 62bit cpus work with 32bit os'es
[06:16] <wilo> madman91: basically i need more space on my current filesystem
[06:16] <wilo> and i have an old exiusting filesystem
[06:16] <wilo> that had mandriva on it
[06:16] <pyrohotdog> Aww, cron. Not to educated in that field.
[06:16] <madman91> wilo: but did you find your old harddrive?
[06:16] <danny3793> Dudemanjer: no prob, im very glad i was of much help :D
[06:16] <luisgmarine> danny3793, I know, I want to upgrade though
[06:16] <wilo> and i want to format that and resize so my ubuntu partion is the entire 40gb hdd
[06:17] <phayro> now it says it is not installed wheni try  that ndisgtk
[06:17] <wilo> madman91: no i didn't find my old hdd
[06:17] <wilo> gparted only found my 80gb hdd
[06:17] <wilo> its got windows on it
[06:17] <wilo> and my 40 gb shoudl be in 2 partions
[06:17] <madman91> wilo: so its ntfs?
[06:17] <wilo> ubuntu and mandriva
[06:17] <danny3793> luisgmarine: i am experiencing x server issues when trying to install 6.06 64bit, im not sure if that is limited to 64bit, but i know its my main issue
[06:17] <yimmmy> my spare hdd when i try to put a file on it it says you are not allowed to do this
[06:18] <wilo> madman91: the hdd i want to format is hdb1
[06:18] <danny3793> luisgmarine: so i am just going with 32bit 7.04
[06:18] <wilo> but that isn't commin up on gparted
[06:18] <Goldfisch> luisgmarine: I have never such a guide. I dropped in an Ubuntu AMD64 installation CD, and it installed just like by 32-bit desktop did. You may want to look up "ubuntu java 64-bit" and "ubuntu cedega 64-bit" on google to check things out.
[06:18] <madman91> wilo: hdb1 is a partition
[06:18] <wilo> but it shows in the my computer in the menu
[06:18] <madman91> wilo: but can you see it in gparted..
[06:18] <madman91> wilo: did you check the tab i told you?
[06:18] <wilo> hdb1 is the 2nd partion of a 40gb hdd, yes
[06:19] <wilo> madman91: what tab?
[06:19] <luisgmarine> danny3793, I'm fine right now, except for this flash sound problem , no one seems to know how to help me ... its a weird thing, but its pissing me off, lol I hate trying everything out there for no avial
[06:19] <peepsalot> is this wav distorted for anyone else?  http://www.paul.sladen.org/pronunciation/torvalds-says-linux.wav
[06:19] <madman91> wilo: in gparted
[06:19] <madman91> wilo: hold on.. ill open mine up to explain
[06:19] <theTrav> arr.  Trying to configure rt2570 wireless in feisty, anyone here done it?  know if/how I should remove network manager?
[06:19] <nambis> can anyone tell me if fs-driver mounts ext3 partiions in windows safe mode?  also, when are the fd-drivers loaded.. could i store "documents and settings" on an ext3 and not have boot problems?  thanks
[06:19] <danny3793> luisgmarine: what version of linux are you running?
[06:19] <maddy> can someone help me configuring my apacheserver under ubuntu? nothing is working like it should
[06:19] <phayro> ok peepsalot you there, i typed in ndiswrapper and it wants paramaters now
[06:19] <luisgmarine> danny3793, 7.04 - 32 bit right now
[06:19] <phayro> so now what
[06:19] <madman91> wilo: ok.. to the right of apply button
[06:19] <madman91> wilo: under the top right corner..
[06:20] <peepsalot> phayro, man ndiswrapper
[06:20] <wilo> ahhh yes
[06:20] <jumbers> When is Pidgin going to be added to the package manager?
[06:20] <Goldfisch> luisgmarine: I looked up the packages, and now there is a java5 and java6 cut for Ubuntu as a standard package (http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/devel/sun-java6-jdk). All you have to do now is apt-get install sun-java6-jdk.
[06:20] <phayro> ahh ok so rtfm heheh
[06:21] <wilo> i see now, sorry i assumed it woudl show all hdd's in the one window
[06:21] <luisgmarine> Goldfisch, that is for 64-bit you are talking about?
[06:21] <wilo> how do i know wat apertion im using right now
[06:21] <Goldfisch> luisgmarine: Thanks to Sun going open source and allowing distributions to release java, it is much easier. If you surf to that page, there is an amd64 version and i386 version.
[06:21] <danny3793> luisgmarine: hmmm..thats weird, im kinda new to the ubuntu scene, sorry, =\
[06:21] <luisgmarine> Goldfisch, awesome
[06:22] <slap_me> mm i forget, what do i need to install, to be able to write to my windows partition?
[06:22] <slap_me> i wanna transfer stuff over there to sync to my ipod
[06:22] <slap_me> ...
[06:22] <Zjoske> DarkRAM: i didn't come any closer to a solution for my usb problem too..
[06:22] <luisgmarine> danny3793, its mostly my fault I have a custom ~/.asoundrc config , and just screwing things up
[06:22] <yimmmy> my spare hdd when i try to put a file on it it says you are not allowed to do this
[06:22] <Goldfisch> luisgmarine: I haven't developed apps on one system and the run on another, so I can't testify how eclipse and jar/war/ear files work.
[06:22] <madman91> wilo: ok.. the top right corner shows your harddrive .. the whole display shows your partitions
[06:22] <DarkRAM> Zjoske, me neither :(
[06:22] <Zjoske> :'(
[06:22] <nambis> can anyone tell me if fs-driver mounts ext3 partiions in windows safe mode?  thanks
[06:22] <Goldfisch> luisgmarine: Well, I hope it works alright. I HAVE built java systems on windows and run them on sun solaris. That sounds further apart than intel 386 and amd64 to me.
[06:23] <maddy> nobody can help me?
[06:23] <r3dragon> could someone help me w/ installing firefox v<IP_ADDRESS>
[06:23] <richgilb> Fritz you there?
[06:23] <wilo> madman91: YEAH I REALISED THAT
[06:23] <wilo> sorry for caps
[06:23] <r3dragon> i'm running ubuntu v6.06 LTS
[06:23] <tootu> is there any one use mame?
[06:23] <madman91> wilo: oh.. you dont know what partition you are using right now right?
[06:23] <danny3793> r3dragon: what is your prob?
[06:23] <richgilb> r3dragon theres an installer program built into ubuntu that will install the program for you
[06:24] <r3dragon> well.. i'm a bit of a linux noob..
[06:24] <r3dragon> hehe
[06:24] <wilo> madman91: yeah
[06:24] <danny3793> me too, but i know a few things :P
[06:24] <maddy> :(
[06:24] <Zjoske> On the Ubuntu liveCD my USB stick mounts automatically, on the install version my usb device doesn't mount automatically, i can't mount it either... Anyone who knows this problem? anyone who has a solution?
[06:24] <r3dragon> i have v1.5 installed currently
[06:24] <richgilb> r3dragon it's not like windows like you have to install from the site - look around your menus for synaptic package manager
[06:24] <danny3793> linux generally comes with firefox ready to go, ubuntu that is atleast
[06:24] <Goldfisch> r3dragon: Go to Applications -> Add/Remove Applications, and you should be able to search for Firefox.
[06:24] <slap_me> anybody know what i need to install to transfer files to my windows partition?
[06:24] <madman91> wilo: there are two ways to find out what partitions you are running ubuntu on.. type in "mount" into a terminal.. and find the partitions and mount points (/ /home /swap) and so on.. or you can just do "cat /etc/fstab" and find it there
[06:25] <madman91> wilo: thats the only ways i know
[06:25] <wilo> madman91: well i know this much, i have 2 hdd's, one 80gb = hda1 that has windows xp, the 2nd hdd which is 40gb is called hdb1, this si where i have a 20 ubuntu partion and a 20gb mandirva partion
[06:25] <Zjoske> On the Ubuntu liveCD my USB stick mounts automatically, on the install version my usb device doesn't mount automatically, i can't mount it either... Anyone who knows this problem? anyone who has a solution?
[06:25] <Evan_> how do i add a word to the beginning of a whole bunch of files?
[06:25] <baudthief> Can someone please help me, I don't want to have to move back to windows just because of this. I'm getting severe "tearing" during video playback. I'm using the proprietary nvidia drivers, and sync to vblank is checked under nvidia-settings. Disabling it also seems to have no effect.
[06:25] <r3dragon> i tried synaptic, but the version is v1.5..
[06:25] <Evan_> i tried rename *.* Scrubs - *.*
[06:25] <maddy> i was changing from Gentoo to Ubuntu because i thought i might save time in the administration, but apache under ubuntu is patched to the end and no hint how to set up 60 different domains
[06:25] <Shoeb> Can someone please answer my RAID question? For god's sake?
[06:25] <bur[n] er> baudthief: using totem-xine?  sudo apt-get install totem-xine xinelib-extracodecs
[06:25] <richgilb> r3dragon enable your multiverse and universe repositories
[06:26] <madman91> wilo: .. harddrives are called hda hdb hdc ... and so on.. the 1 2 3 and so on are partitions
[06:26] <danny3793> baudthief: i dont think your supposed to use nvidia provided drivers :S
[06:26] <baudthief> bur[n] er: tried it, happens with all media players :(
[06:26] <baudthief> danny3793: Apparently I need them to run beryl nicely
[06:26] <bur[n] er> i think nvidia proprietary drivers work well and danny is talking trash
[06:26] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: I have been paying attention to other threads of discussion. What is your RAID question?
[06:26] <danny3793> baudthief: yes, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[06:26] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: Thank you. How can I delete a multidisk device?
[06:26] <bur[n] er> baudthief: change refresh rate?  happen at all resolutions?  try lowering depth?  same in vlc too?
[06:27] <baudthief> Feisty, 7.04 I think
[06:27] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: I messed up the RAID installation, and now there are md devices present even if I reboot... and when I try to delete them using "Delete MD Device", it says cannot do so since it may be in use!!! How do I get these MD devices to go and I start again?!!? :( The HDDs currently are clean wiped!
[06:27] <wilo> madman91: ohh well i didn't know tat
[06:27] <vbabiy> hey guys is there any good podcast software that supports both video and audio
[06:27] <madman91> wilo: so did you get my "mount" or "cat /etc/fstab" instructions?
[06:27] <wilo> madman91: have a look at wat i have in fstab: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20449/
[06:27] <bur[n] er> vbabiy: democracy player or penguintv
[06:27] <Zjoske> On the Ubuntu liveCD my USB stick mounts automatically, on the install version my usb device doesn't mount automatically, i can't mount it either... Anyone who knows this problem? anyone who has a solution?
[06:27] <sumigamer> hey guys does anyone know whether shipit deliver CDs to India???
[06:27] <danny3793> baudthief: 7.04 should support your card
[06:27] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Hold your horses. I have had that problem in the past. You have to execute a step to "wipe the superblock" from them. Give me a sec...
[06:27] <baudthief> bur[n] er: only thing I havent tried is VLC, but it's the same in all refresh rates and resolutions - only happens during video playback in all apps, gaming, etc look great even with vsync is disabled
[06:27] <vbabiy> bur[n] er: which would you recommend
[06:28] <r3dragon> richgilb.. thanks.. i tried that.. under "software properties" and added the other repositories
[06:28] <bur[n] er> baudthief: what's the movietype?  happen on all movietypes?
[06:28] <nambis> can anyone tell me if fs-driver mounts ext3 partiions in windows safe mode? c'mon.... i know lots of you have treid this and it only takes a sec to say yes or no :)
[06:28] <sumigamer> hey guys does anyone know whether shipit deliver CDs to India???
[06:28] <bruenig> Zjoske, do mkdir usb && sudo mount /dev/sdf1 usb/
[06:28] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: Thanks..
[06:28] <r3dragon> but for some reson they wont save
[06:28] <wilo> madman91: im pretty sure im on hdb5 right now for ubuntu
[06:28] <wilo> and i want to format and resize mandriva partion whih would be hdb1
[06:28] <bur[n] er> vbabiy: got me, I use google reader for podcasting ;)
[06:28] <wilo> crrect?
[06:28] <baudthief> bur[n] er: I havent checked that actually, right now it's XviD, i'll try divx / mpg
[06:28] <yimmmy> my spare hdd when i try to put a file on it it says you are not allowed to do this
[06:28] <r3dragon> do i need to be root?
[06:28] <madman91> wilo: /dev/hdb5 is / ... /dev/hda1 is /media/hda1 .. which is your windows
[06:28] <bur[n] er> baudthief: give vlc a shot...  just for kicks
[06:28] <Zjoske> bruenig: i already did that.. doesn't work (sdf and other mount points are no valid block-device)
[06:29] <sumigamer>  hey guys does anyone know whether shipit deliver CDs to India???
[06:29] <bruenig> Zjoske, do you know if that is its name?
[06:29] <wilo> madman91: im pretty sure im on hdb5 right now for ubuntu, is tat right?
[06:29] <madman91> wilo: /dev/hdb1 is /media/hdb1 is probably mandriva
[06:29] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: If you go to http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/LVM_on_RAID, and scan down about half way, it has some steps you can execute to wipe out a RAID array. Its inthe section called "Make the array".
[06:29] <madman91> wilo: yes.. thats your /
[06:29] <Zjoske> bruenig:  i only know that on the livecd my usb device is mounted as: /dev/sda1
[06:29] <bruenig> Zjoske, plug it in and do dmesg to see what it is calling it
[06:29] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: THANK YOU!
[06:30] <wilo> madman91: so how do i format hdb1 and resize it into my hdb5?
[06:30] <Zjoske> bruenig: it is called sg0, there is no mount point created...
[06:30] <bruenig> Zjoske, I don't think usb devices are generally sda
[06:30] <bur[n] er> wilo: gparted via livecd
[06:30] <bruenig> Zjoske, ok do mkdir usb && sudo mount /dev/sg0 usb/
[06:30] <Zjoske> bruenig: i checked that on the livecd and it is properly mounted on sda1
[06:30] <madman91> wilo: well.. to format hdb1 ... you can open up gparted
[06:30] <madman91> wilo: right click on it.. and choose delete
[06:31] <wilo> it wont let me
[06:31] <bruenig> Zjoske, what does "mounted on sda1" mean
[06:31] <wilo> only option is unmount
[06:31] <madman91> wilo: unmount it
[06:31] <Zjoske> bruenig: the output is:  /dev/sg0 is no valid block-device
[06:31] <madman91> wilo: ah.. there might be a slight problem.. you are running on the same harddrive right?
[06:31] <wilo> madman91: wont let me, need to manual unmount apprently
[06:31] <DarkRAM> Zjoske, i get the same message
[06:31] <Zjoske> bruenig: with mounted on sda1 i mean it's mounted to the mountpoint: /dev/sda1
[06:31] <cute_bettong> how do i kill an unknown zombie app?
[06:32] <bruenig> Zjoske, ok take it out and plug it in, and then do dmesg | tail and see exactly what it is called
[06:32] <wilo> madman91: yes
[06:32] <bruenig> Zjoske, /dev/sda1 is not a mount point
[06:32] <madman91> wilo: it is unadvised to edit a harddrive you are running on
[06:32] <madman91> wilo: so you would need to use a live cd.. like ubuntu
[06:32] <Zjoske> (i mean a device point)
[06:32] <Zjoske> :x
[06:32] <phayro> ok now i am closer i have the inf file isntalled peepsalot
[06:32] <madman91> wilo: pop you ubuntu live cd in .. and gparted will be there
[06:32] <maddy> does someone have an example config for me?
[06:32] <madman91> wilo: then make sure they are unmounted.. and do the delete i told you
[06:32] <wilo> madman91: CAN I RESIZE MY WINDOWS PARTION AND USE IT THROUGH UBUNTU
[06:32] <bruenig> Zjoske, just see what dmesg says and then go from there
[06:32] <peepsalot> phayro, try to run ndisgtk and see if you can enable it from there
[06:32] <wilo> madman91: I JUST NEED ABOUT 20 GB MORE SPACE THEN I CURRENTLY HAVE
[06:32] <bruenig> !caps | wilo
[06:32] <ubotu> wilo: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[06:32] <wilo> soz for caps lock
[06:33] <peepsalot> phayro, did you get ndisgtk installed?
[06:33] <concept10> kick
[06:33] <bruenig> wilo, somehow you got the names out
[06:33] <phayro> xcept it shows my card as eth0
[06:33] <phayro> no cant get it in
[06:33] <yimmmy> my spare hdd when i try to put a file on it it says you are not allowed to do this
[06:33] <yimmmy> my spare hdd when i try to put a file on it it says you are not allowed to do this
[06:33] <yimmmy> opps
[06:33] <nambis> has anyone ever used microsoft's ifs manager?
[06:33] <madman91> wilo: you can use the rest of your windows partition.. or you can remove mandriva .. up to you
[06:33] <bruenig> yimmmy, what is the filesystem?
[06:34] <madman91> wilo: or.. just resize mandriva
[06:34] <yimmmy> what do u mean by file system
[06:34] <bruenig> yimmmy, fat32, ext3 ...
[06:34] <yimmmy> oh
[06:34] <yimmmy> nts
[06:34] <yimmmy> i think
[06:34] <Zjoske> bruenig: ill paste it on paste.ubuntu-nl.org....
[06:34] <yimmmy> somthing wiht an n in it
[06:35] <Goldfisch> !space | yimmy
[06:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about space - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:35] <madman91> wilo: .. you can resize the windows partition..  but then what would you mount the new partition for ubuntu as?
[06:35] <bruenig> yimmmy, pastebin your /etc/fstab
[06:35] <bruenig> !paste | yimmmy
[06:35] <ubotu> yimmmy: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:35] <yimmmy> what
[06:35] <Zjoske> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20450/ check it out, there is no device point created...
[06:35] <wilo> madman91: DUNNO
[06:35] <wilo> dunon fukin caps :(
[06:35] <Goldfisch> !punctuation | yimmmy
[06:35] <ubotu> yimmmy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:35] <madman91> wilo: sorry i cant help more now.. i have to go.. but you can ask around
[06:36] <Zjoske> bruenig: but as you can see, ubuntu sees the device...
[06:36] <wilo> madman91: THANKS FOR YOUR HELP :)
[06:36] <baudthief> bur[n] er: same deal with vlc :(
[06:36] <madman91> wilo: i will be back on tommorow.. or you can try here .. or #ubuntu-effects
[06:36] <yimmmy> ok
[06:37] <DarkRAM> Zjoske, I dont even seen USB messages when Idmesg | tail like you do. :(
[06:37] <bruenig> Zjoske, do it again after that, the name generally shows up after that point
[06:37] <madman91> wilo: check pm.. good luck and good bye
[06:37] <Zjoske> bruenig: how you mean?
[06:37] <bruenig> Zjoske, here is what mine looks like for instance
[06:37] <bruenig> scsi 6:0:0:0: Direct-Access              USB DISK 2.0     PMAP PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS
[06:37] <bruenig> SCSI device sdf: 2015232 512-byte hdwr sectors (1032 MB)
[06:37] <Zjoske> re plugin the device?
[06:37] <bruenig> Zjoske, you dmesg a second too early
[06:38] <baudthief> bur[n] er: My card is a GeForce 7600GS (AGP) / 256MB Ram, I bought it just for ubuntu, my ATi card had some issues that couldn't be resolved
[06:38] <Zjoske> no i don't bruenig
[06:38] <Zjoske> cause i now do dmesg again and it still doesnt show the device point...
[06:38] <Zjoske> the same output
[06:38] <eobanb> has anyone tried using their R300-based ati radeon with the open source radeon driver? i would like to know how stable/reliable the 3D acceleration is.
[06:39] <theTrav> hmm, this wireless thing is giving me no love.  I've followed http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=106846&highlight=HOWTO+rt2570
[06:39] <Goldfisch> bruenig: It looks like /dev/sdf is the point, no?
[06:39] <theTrav> when I get to the ifconfig rausb0 up step it tells me that the device doesn't exist
[06:40] <sgtmattbaker> anyone seen spiderman3 yet
[06:40] <yimmmy> tomorow

[06:40] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:40] <sgtmattbaker> yimmmy: have you read any reviews
[06:40] <yimmmy> heck yes
[06:40] <breno_> hi
[06:40] <yimmmy> i want to get this linux working tough
[06:40] <breno_> hey... where can i find some help about mysql in ubuntu?
[06:41] <eobanb> !mysql
[06:41] <Mirage> HI.
[06:41] <breno_> yes
[06:41] <sgtmattbaker> yimmmy: what are they saying in the reviews? ; what do you need help with
[06:41] <eobanb> !offtopic | sgtmattbaker
[06:41] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[06:41] <Goldfisch> sgtmattbaker: No, but I'm waiting for the pinball game to come out!
[06:41] <ubotu> sgtmattbaker: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:41] <yimmmy> my spare hdd when i try to put a file on it it says you are not allowed to do this
[06:41] <Mirage> I was wondering, is it particularly hard to get Grub up and working again if I install Windows after having already installed Ubuntu?
[06:41] <XLV_feisty> anyone managed to run hddtemp on feisty? i read with some preliminary search in the web that it has problems with some latest kernels
[06:41] <Mirage> I know it's best to install windows first, then ubuntu, but this is no longer possible
[06:41] <sgtmattbaker> eobanb: um have you seen ubuntu-offtopic?  like 8 people.
[06:42] <theTrav> hmm, ok at the network interface restart it fails to sort out rausb01
[06:42] <breno_> I set my password in the wrong way, i put breno and the correctilye is passwor('breno') what can i do now????
[06:42] <breno_> in mysql
[06:42] <yimmmy> i need to know how the freak to use this
[06:43] <sgtmattbaker> yimmmy: what are you trying to do
[06:43] <Goldfisch> breno_: Enter mysql as user root, then update like -> grant blah on 'breno'@'hostname' identified by 'password';
[06:43] <theTrav> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20451/
[06:43] <theTrav> can anyone tell me what that output means?
[06:43] <yimmmy> get my hdd to work i i dont know how to dl stuff and run them
[06:43] <Mirage> !grub
[06:43] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:43] <theTrav> I think it's the relevant section
[06:43] <phayro> hey peepsalot thanks for the help, i am nearly there
[06:44] <theTrav> from the command sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[06:44] <yimmmy> my hdd is a spare i want to store stuff on but somthing wont let me
[06:44] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: Followed the WIPE everything. Is that all? Or shall I Make the array too?
[06:44] <peepsalot> phayro, no prob
[06:44] <sgtmattbaker> fimmy: get your hdd to work and d/l stuff? I dont understand..
[06:44] <peepsalot> wish someone knew about my prob though
[06:44] <yimmmy> my hdd is a spare i want to store stuff on but somthing wont let me
[06:44] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Well, that procedure is for building a new RAID array, and wiping out any previous RAID data it had. If you don't want to build a new array, then you can skip the rest of the procedure.
[06:44] <yimmmy> i want to dl torrents and apps
[06:44] <sgtmattbaker> yimmy: type /msg sgtmattbaker serv
[06:44] <yimmmy> when i do i dont knwo how to run them
[06:44] <phayro> peepsalot now i an trying to figure out the damn ndiswrappeer but would like a front end
[06:45] <peepsalot> phayro, what do you mean ndisgtk is a frontend, have you run it yet?
[06:45] <ant-> whats linux version of limewire called?
[06:45] <ingrid232> i have a usb drive (fat filesystem) i want to mount it so I own it, not root. how do i do this?
[06:45] <ingrid232> ant-, frostwire
[06:45] <phayro> peepsalot i cant get it to install
[06:45] <ant-> ingrid232 : thanks
[06:45] <phayro> keeps givin me erros
[06:45] <yimmmy> i cant use frostwire either i want to
[06:45] <yimmmy> but i cant
[06:46] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: Ok, now, I did that to /dev/md0 and /dev/md1... but either sdb1 or sdc1 didn't go too well.
[06:46] <peepsalot> phayro, did you try getting the dependency packages that it says it needs?
[06:46] <sgtmattbaker> yimmmy: I sent you a pm please respond
[06:46] <phayro> yes
[06:46] <ingrid232> yimmmy, try gtk-gnutella. its less pretty, but it works pretty well
[06:46] <irotas> for some reason, whenever i close my laptop for a while and re-open it, my X display becomes distorted .. about a 1/8" of the right-hand side of the screen is being shown on the left-hand side instead
[06:46] <cafuego> sgtmattbaker: yimmy is not a registered user, so probably can't respond.
[06:46] <irotas> i don't know if this makes any sense .. hopefully someone has seen this before
[06:46] <peepsalot> phayro, so what is the error now?
[06:46] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: They were giving sample devices. What ARE the hard drives on your system? The idea is to apply it to the partitions you previously marked at type "Linux RAID Autodetect".
[06:46] <bayziders> Can some one recommend a front row type program?
[06:46] <sgtmattbaker> cafuego: oh ok
[06:47] <sgtmattbaker> yimmmy: do you have a AIM or Jabber nick?
[06:47] <yimmmy> aim
[06:47] <yimmmy> can u help me
[06:47] <sgtmattbaker> what is it?
[06:47] <peepsalot> phayro, you need to install the dependencies separately before you can install ndisgtk, did you do that?
[06:47] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: To get a read out on the partition tables, you can execute "sudo fdisk -l /dev/<harddrive>" like /dev/hda.
[06:47] <yimmmy> xbxmodd3r
[06:47] <yimmmy> is my aimname
[06:47] <phayro> peepsalot yeah i got that
[06:47] <Goldfisch> !punctuation | yimmmy
[06:47] <ubotu> yimmmy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:48] <yimmmy> ok
[06:48] <ingrid232> i have a usb drive (fat filesystem) i want to mount it so I own it, not root. how do i do this? chown doesnt work.
[06:48] <peepsalot> phayro, what is the error during ndisgtk install then?
[06:48] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: I think I messed up again. Before you could reply, I went on the install CD, and I still see an array there. Let me reboot and try those methods, thanks. Is there a way to go to a shell immediately when the Ubuntu menu comes up?
[06:49] <theTrav> hmm, ok, well modprobe -l | grep rt25 gives me a butt load of modules
[06:49] <yimmmy> i need help im on aim xbxmodd3r
[06:49] <theTrav> only one of them is rt2570
[06:49] <phayro> what is the install command again
[06:49] <bayziders> Does any one have a recommendation?
[06:49] <theTrav> how do I check if that module is loaded/working/running whatever it has to be doing?
[06:49] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Regular Ubuntu Live CD? Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal.
[06:49] <Shoeb> No, I don't even have an OS.
[06:49] <Shoeb> I'm talking about right from the install CD.
[06:50] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: What type of CD are you using, so I can give you a valid answer.
[06:50] <phayro> it says that ndis wrapper utils is not installed but it is
[06:50] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: Server install CD, PC.
[06:50] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: Feisty.
[06:50] <theTrav> ok, I think lsmod | grep rt2570 was what I was looking for
[06:51] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: I am not familiar with navigating that. Maybe they have a shell option. ???
[06:51] <EcoBlue> hello
[06:51] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: I have used the Alternate CD and the Live CD, but not the Server CD.
[06:51] <phayro> it says that ndis wrapper utils is not installed but it is and i just installed it agian and tryied and it says the same thing
[06:51] <theTrav> it returns two lines, one with the module and another one called usbcore
[06:51] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: No no, it's the first menu.. you know how it asks "Install to the hard disk" "Boot from Hard disk".. and etc etc?
[06:51] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: I'm pretty sure it's the same menu you get when you boot up the alternate CD.
[06:51] <Shoeb> Or almost.
[06:52] <theTrav> I guess that means my module is loaded
[06:52] <Goldfisch> Is there some type of "Rescue" option towards the bottom?
[06:52] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: Yup, 3rd op[tion
[06:52] <EcoBlue> I'm downloading the Ubuntu 7.04 32 bit edition due to Sabayon not liking this computer. Any recommendations as to software to install?
[06:52] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: That should work. It dumps you into a shell, and probably offers options about mounting drives.
[06:52] <ziroday> EcoBlue: beryl
[06:52] <EcoBlue> ok
[06:52] <EcoBlue> I'll get that
[06:52] <tootu> /EcoBlue
[06:53] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: I wish, lol, it goes through the whole initial config. Lemme try now.
[06:53] <theTrav> dang, gotta go.  I'll be back to harass for more help later
[06:53] <Electricity> Cmo fijo yo mi sonido en el ttem?
[06:53] <skinnypuppy1334> Anyone else built a breezy or edgy virtual machine on VMServer running on Feisty? XP went no prob, edgy and dapper will both boot a virtual machine but nothing happens when you click the install icon and eventually that virtual machine will become unresponsive.. Any ideas??
[06:53] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Are you trying to install the root server system on RAID? Does the Server edition do that, or do you need to be using the Alternate CD. (That's why I use ALternate, to get root-on-LVM-on-RAID).
[06:53] <EcoBlue> is Ubuntu 7.04 much better than 6.06
[06:53] <tonyyarusso> !es | Electricity
[06:53] <ubotu> Electricity: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[06:53] <Electricity> Yo no hablo espaol
[06:54] <Electricity> I was using a transloator script ;P Anyway, how do I fix sound in Totem? I get sound everywhere but there
[06:54] <ziroday> EcoBlue: yes
[06:55] <titun> i am having problem booting to feisty, which worked fill until now, loading grub gives Error 17
[06:55] <kalifornia909> !cli
[06:55] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[06:55] <titun> and booting from older versions of Ubuntu as liveCd gives hda1 error
[06:55] <cein> i'm having trouble setting up scim
[06:55] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: I've been trying to do that for 3 hours now, Goldfisch , lol.. go figure, eh. I wanted to use Alternate, but I worry if it'll not have serverish components.
[06:56] <cein> i can run it, i have the languages i want selected in the setup
[06:56] <skinnypuppy1334> Whats the VMware chanel on this server?
[06:56] <Electricity> Wie repariere ich Klang in Totem?
[06:56] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Well, I guess it does support root on RAID. I just spotted http://knowledge76.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Server_Install_With_Software_RAID.
[06:56] <cein> but when i click the scim icon there aren't any choices in the popup menu
[06:56] <Shoeb> I wish I could find things like this so easily.. sigh
[06:57] <Electricity> Necesito el sonido de fijar de ayuda en el ttem...
[06:57] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Maybe you need the alternate CD to get LVM-on-RAID. I think Server CD basically installs ubuntu with the X components, making for a smaller footprint. If resources aren't a problem, I don't have any issue with using the desktop installation.
[06:57] <Goldfisch> !google | Shoeb
[06:57] <ubotu> Shoeb: Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[06:57] <Shoeb> But desktop install gives a lot of crap I wouldn't need.
[06:57] <Electricity> Why doesn't sound work in totem?
[06:58] <Shoeb> LOL, thanks for that Goldfisch. Really appreciate it! :P
[06:58] <kalifornia909> anyone here use handbrake
[06:59] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: BTW, that fdisk command you gave me doesn't report anything.
[06:59] <bayziders> Sorry to ask this again but I really would like an answer, is there a front row type app for ubuntu?
[06:59] <Electricity> Why doesn't sound work in totem?
[06:59] <phayro> how can i get ubuntu to see my wireless card as wlan instead of eth0
[07:00] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: What slots/channels are you harddrives plugged in to? IDE0, IDE1 or SATA 1 and SATA 2?
[07:00] <Electricity> phayro, hit it repeatedly?
[07:00] <ziroday> bayziders: you mean to like work wif a remote control?
[07:00] <bayziders> no, key bored is fine
[07:00] <titun> while booting from live Cd i got a lots of error like [some number]  Buffer I/O Error on device hda1, logical block some number
[07:00] <phayro> Electricity yeah but i meant like and still work :)
[07:00] <bayziders> Nero Home might be a better example
[07:00] <kalifornia909> how do i use a program with it's own cli
[07:00] <titun> and after booting my /media has nothing
[07:00] <|chiz|> phayro, did you have no luck with iwconfig?
[07:00] <titun> does this mean my hdd is not mounted?

[07:03] <Electricity> Why doesn't sound work in totem?
[07:03] <Electricity> Why doesn't sound work in totem?
[07:03] <skylight> ok
[07:03] <bayziders> ziroday: That no it doesn't need a remote, I guess Nero home might be a better example
[07:03] <ziroday> skylight: then in your current icon directory
[07:03] <Talaman72> does this  --  my @warn allow me to does $warn?

[07:04] <ubotu> Electricity: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[07:04] <orbin> Electricity: files/dvds?
[07:04] <Talaman72> wrong place
[07:04] <Electricity> It's not a DV
[07:04] <Talaman72> lol
[07:04] <Electricity> It's not a DVD
[07:04] <Electricity> It's a movie I downloaded
[07:04] <hreiser> free reiser
[07:04] <skylight> ok
[07:04] <gswain> defrysk: all the way up,, just double checked
[07:04] <kalifornia909> is there a way to mount a drive on another linux machine on my machine
[07:04] <orbin> Electricity: then probably a codec issue.  have you had a look at the restricted formats page on the wiki?
[07:05] <defrysk> gswain, also pcm is up ?
[07:05] <kalifornia909> !network Drive
[07:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about network drive - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:05] <skylight> but my username isnt in the home directory
[07:05] <defrysk> master, pcm and if you play a cd also cd
[07:05] <skylight> sorry
[07:05] <skylight> i mean theres no Icons under my username
[07:05] <gswain> defrysk: pcm is what i checked
[07:05] <defrysk> gswain, and master ?
[07:05] <gswain> defrysk: i dont see a master
[07:05] <|chiz|> kalifornia909, its possible you just need to figure out the mount command or the fstab syntax
[07:06] <Sleepy_Coder> Was there a netsplit recently?
[07:06] <bagualas> What software may I use to burn some videos to DVD ? Like I have a movie downloaded, and want to be show on DVD
[07:06] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: You know what, I have no clue.. this mobo is real bad. And I looked, and I can't tlel.
[07:06] <|chiz|> kalifornia909, is the drive on a samba share?
[07:06] <tonyyarusso> !burners | bagualas
[07:06] <ubotu> bagualas: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[07:06] <defrysk> gswain, righclick the volume icon, open volumecontrol and oyu should see a bunch of slides
[07:06] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: It doesn't even say it right! :(
[07:07] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Are your harddrives SATA or ATA? Do they have tiny cables running out, or a wide ribbon cable?
[07:07] <bagualas> tonyyarusso, but they convert to the format of the DVD ? Like i will be able to see on a normal DVD
[07:07] <kalifornia909> chiz, yes the machine i want to mount from is samba shared
[07:07] <|chiz|> then yes it definitely possible to setup
[07:07] <gswain> defrysk: when i do that, i have a slide for pcm and one for mic,, they are both all the way up
[07:07] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: ATA
[07:07] <tonyyarusso> bagualas: At least some of those - not sure about options in all of them.  Gnomebaker and K3b I would guess do.
[07:07] <kalifornia909> |chiz| where should i look
[07:08] <bagualas> tonyyarusso, i will take a look, ths very much :D
[07:08] <ziroday> skylight: go to /home/<username>/.icons/<current theme name>/scalable/places and copy your logo in there 3 times and name one distributer-logo.png, one start-here.png and one gnome-main-menu.png
[07:08] <defrysk> gswain, select edit > preferences in volume control and select the missing master
[07:08] <ziroday> skylight: then restart your xserver
[07:08] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Okay, they are probably identified as either /dev/hda, /dev/hdb, /dev/hdc, or /dev/hdd. Just try "sudo fdisk -l <disk>" for each of them, and see what you get.
[07:08] <skylight> ok
[07:08] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: /dev/hda is ide0:0, /dev/hdb is ide0:1, and so forth.

[07:10] <skylight> but where do i restart it at
[07:10] <strabes> SurfnKid: to my knowledge you can use any DE...

[07:10] <skylight> ok
[07:10] <Oewyn> I'm having some issues compiling AVview, and it's complaining about XvQueryAdaptors and some other related things, i believe AVview requires libvideogfx, but there isn't a package for that, and i can't seem to compile that either.   What would be more responsive? A dual processor setup with dual amd 2400's and 266 mhz ram , or a single dual core with 800mhz fsb?

[07:12] <skylight> The name "start-here.png" is already used in this folder. Please use a different name.
[07:13] <zeekstarr> defrysk: it has to be mpg?
[07:13] <defrysk> zeekstarr, dvdauthor -o dvd blah.avi
[07:13] <jeffwheeler> SirBob1701_: ifconfig
[07:13] <skylight> dlete the other image

[07:14] <skylight> can i run a search
[07:14] <arya^> anyone feel like recommending a motherboard that wont hang before, during or after the ubuntu install process?
[07:15] <defrysk> thats*
[07:15] <skylight> ahh i found it
[07:15] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: hda/hdb
[07:15] <skylight> ok
[07:15] <Goldfisch> Okay, so instead of doing that wipe operation on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdc1 like the procedure said, instead you need to execute it probably against /dev/hda1 and /dev/hdb1. Whatever partitions were marked at Linux Raid Autodetect.
[07:15] <Saied> can anyone help me in usplash?
[07:16] <ziroday> Saied: whats wrong?

[07:17] <defrysk> must be a very short movie
[07:17] <arya^> XLV_feisty, SATA controller support
[07:18] <Anguis> It installed properly, from what I can tell.
[07:18] <SirBob1701_> does the fact that i get a 169 ip mean anything other then i just didn't connect?
[07:18] <arya^> Matir, each one had a different issue =\

[07:18] <Anguis> I get to GRUB and then the computer crashes.
[07:18] <Saied> ziroday, Jordan_U: any idea ?

[07:19] <defrysk> zeekstarr, growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -dvd-video dvd
[07:19] <Jordan_U> Saied, Is the problem with the splash or that Ubuntu won't boot ( hangs at configuring X ) ?
[07:19] <Anguis> Actually, I get through GRUB, am able to select ubuntu, and then the crash.
[07:19] <skylight> .png

[07:20] <pingveno> I keep getting the message filename.aiff: Error while parsing header
[07:20] <|chiz|> Anguis, if you edit the grub command to remove splash and quiet it will give you a play by play of what it is doing, it might help you out
[07:20] <Saied> Jordan_U: no . the X server can run and my KDE (kubuntu) is running but i want usplash dont be hide

[07:20] <jhon> Hi

[07:21] <jhon> some body knows how to fix suspend trouble in Ubuntu Dapper ?
[07:21] <SirBob1701_> grr this network issue is pisisng me off cuase i think i broke my fing port

[07:21] <Anguis> ok, got a linkfor editing GRUB, or is it easy to find in the docs/forums? thanks
[07:21] <SirBob1701_> and i can't install the marvell drivers because i can't connect
[07:21] <Mirage> Does anyone know why I can't select other directories than my home dir in the SMB share manager? If I try to select my FAT32 partition, no directories or files show up, and if I try to create a directory with the SMB share manager, I get an "access denied" message.
[07:22] <erpo> I need to set up a feisty box so that it *never* updates the kernel. How should I do this?
[07:22] <Oewyn> Does anyone have experience in installing Avview?
[07:22] <Jordan_U> Saied, No offense, but how is that an emergency?
[07:22] <jhon> suspedn dont work, someone know how to fix that ??
[07:22] <|chiz|> Anguis, you don't need a manual, just hit e when you highlight what operating system to boot
[07:22] <XLV_feisty> arya^, http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/showproduct.php/product/3826 here they report success
[07:23] <disinterested> jhon why dont u upgrade to feisty?
[07:23] <Anguis> ok, thanks - I'll give it a try.

[07:25] <Shoeb> Thank you sooo much.
[07:25] <Shoeb> My first RAID installation!
[07:25] <Mirage> Does anyone know why I can't select other directories than my home dir in the SMB share manager? If I try to select my FAT32 partition, no directories or files show up, and if I try to create a directory with the SMB share manager, I get an "access denied" message.
[07:25] <DLB|Maximus> Jordan_U: ok, so the proprietary driver is fglrx.... i dont want that as i remember it messed up my xorg, i was just trying to figure out if i had the open source drivers or the proprietary ones as im trying to figure out how to get double buffer working
[07:25] <jsizzle> greets, I'm putting together a spare parts box with a small hard drive, is there a way to remove a package without removing the things that supposedly depend on it? say like firefox when I use swiftfox but for some reason 10 essential things depend on it? TIA
[07:25] <Jordan_U> Saied, If it times out just a little early you may be able to "fix it" by getting Ubuntu to boot a little faster ( which I may be able to help with )
[07:25] <ziroday> hendaus: sorry i dont quite understand what you are saying
[07:25] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: No problem. I converted my home systems to RAID-1 over the past month. I like it! Especially with LVM!!!
[07:25] <disinterested> im not sure hendaus
[07:26] <jhon> Ok, i was searching a lot in internet to fix that trouble ando nobody can fix
[07:26] <Mirage> I can usually access that partition without problems
[07:26] <Saied> Jordan_U: what can i do?
[07:26] <Shoeb> Now, I don't even know how LVM comes in the picture, lol
[07:26] <jhon> if someone has the same trouble, all that you have to do its see if in your menu.lst you have the parameter VGA=791, erase!! AND WORKS!! :) I dont know why BUT FINALLY WORKS!
[07:26] <arya^> Does anyone here actually _have_ an LGA775 motherboard, SATA hard drives, working?
[07:27] <disinterested> jhon dapper has been so downgraded it would be much better to get feisty
[07:27] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Read the rest of that article I sent from wiki.mythtv.org. It should explain all the bits and pieces. It gives you easier maintenance of disk space, and you can put it on top of RAID.
[07:27] <XLV_feisty> arya^, http://www.techimo.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2074295 this problem is what you refer to?
[07:27] <jhon> i tell you, feisty its great, but not for my laptop
[07:27] <uht> ow.irc.pl
[07:27] <hendaus> ziroday,  on windows i use emule morphex, so u can make a copy link of your username and paste it to your friends, so they can add u as friend
[07:27] <jsizzle> feisty is the best for my laptops and desktops
[07:27] <Shoeb> Ah, I just  began the installation.. but I'll definitely read up about it.
[07:28] <ziroday> hendaus: not sure sorry
[07:28] <jhon> how can i speed more my laptop without use XFCE ? (I prefer Gnome)
[07:28] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: But still, just in case.. if I want to reinstall the whole OS, and ofcourse redo the arrays.. is this how hard it's going to be? lol
[07:28] <hendaus> ok thanx anyway for help
[07:28] <orbin> jhon: get more RAM
[07:28] <Jordan_U> Saied, How early does it time out? You probably won't be able to shave off much time from boot so it probably isn't worth trying unless it times out just a little early
[07:28] <jhon> :( XP works really fast in the same machine in the other partition
[07:28] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: Of course not. Now that you understand some more of the mechanics, it won't be as difficult next time. Hopefully, you can help out someone else, and pass on what you have learned to others.
[07:29] <arya^> XLV_feisty, yeah, it was a display issue... the server install worked fine though
[07:29] <Shoeb> Goldfisch: That's usually the deal with me :)
[07:29] <Mirage> How can i change the CPU speed of my laptop under Feisty?
[07:29] <orbin> jhon: i have a 2800+ and xp crawled iwith 256MB
[07:29] <Mirage> Along with other power saving features
[07:29] <arya^> XLV_feisty, I lie, the alternate text-only install worked fine...
[07:29] <jsizzle> best release yet after standard ubuntu tune-up  :) custom kernel, ext3 optimization, host file opt, hdparm all the other usual stuff
[07:29] <Goldfisch> Shoeb: I probably "reinstalled" several times until I shook out the kinks of what was happening. That is why I "know" about this trick. I was only doing it last month. Heh.
[07:29] <XLV_feisty> arya^, display issue? have you tried safe graphics option?
[07:29] <theshadow> Would anyone know how to get mythtv to use the Tv Out (S-Video) on an nVidia card?
[07:30] <orbin> jhon: get more ram.  it's a good bang-for-your-buck upgrade
[07:30] <Shoeb> Nice.
[07:30] <jhon> some tips to speed my ubuntu ? (without more RAM :(
[07:30] <Shoeb> Thanks man.
[07:30] <arya^> XLV_feisty, yeah, tried that. unfortunately, I can't test feisty on it, because after 20 hours of working on it, I smashed it into about 30 pieces.
[07:30] <XLV_feisty> arya^, in all 64bit versions i have tried, default graphics install didnt work, but safe graphics worked
[07:30] <Jordan_U> Saied, http://news.softpedia.com/news/Optimize-Ubuntu-Feisty-Fawn-for-Speed-53836.shtml Try #1 and #4 ( again, it may not be enough )
[07:31] <|chiz|> jhon, fluxbox is great for older machines
[07:31] <arya^> XLV_feisty, only to buy the Abit AB9, and have JMicron sata controller issues :)
[07:31] <XLV_feisty> arya^, also you need to set the xserver to use vesa, not nv graphics, then install the nvidia drivers which work ok
[07:31] <jhon> to ugly ;)
[07:31] <theshadow> jhon xfce?
[07:31] <jsizzle> mirage: read this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_enable_your_CPU.27s_Power_Saving.2FFrequency_Scaling_features
[07:31] <|chiz|> jhon, how much ram do you have now?
[07:32] <Saied> Jordan_U: we have not any problem with installed mode, our problem is in live mode
[07:32] <Goldfisch> theshadow: I spotted this thread. Its a little dated, but maybe it still works -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=98456

[07:32] <theshadow> Goldfisch: at this point I will take anything :P
[07:32] <Jordan_U> Saied, Can you get a faster CD reader maybe?
[07:32] <arya^> XLV_feisty, I wish you luck with yours :-) if you know of another one that works out of the box, let me know.
[07:33] <|chiz|> jhon, that is pretty meager
[07:33] <Saied> Jordan_U: maybe no. and i think that is not solution
[07:33] <jsizzle> mirage: that link may not work so well the copy and paste f'd up a bit but it's on ubuntuguide.org
[07:33] <Mirage> Thanks jsizzle

[07:33] <Goldfisch> Sheob: Read the gory details on my blog site: https://scifi.homelinux.net/mediawiki/index.php/MythTV
[07:33] <theshadow> Goldfisch: ROFL thats the first guide I found, that helped me get my S-Video working like I can move my mouse over there when I'm at the login screen but I can't get mythtv to output over there... its driving me flipping mad I tells ya
[07:33] <Mirage> The link worked
[07:33] <jsizzle> Mirage: np
[07:33] <Mirage> but it's too bad there's no nice GUI tool for it :p
[07:33] <jhon> mmmmm do you think, if I install XFCE at the time with Gnome, could work or could get some troubles ?
[07:33] <Jordan_U> Saied, How soon do you need a fix?
[07:34] <Mirage> Also jsizzle, do you know a way to save the hard disk standby settings?
[07:34] <|chiz|> jhon, I had ubuntu installed on a celeron 1ghz with 256 shared memory, and I definitely found fluxbox to be much more responsive
[07:34] <jsizzle> jhon: if you install both you can just select one or other from sessions in gdm
[07:34] <Mirage> To me, it seems like they are turned off after each reboot
[07:34] <Mirage> turned off as in no power save features turned on
[07:35] <Goldfisch> theshadow: Heh. Great minds think alike....err...great minds GOOGLE alike. :)  Not sure what to make of this. Hmm, is your TV plugged in? I have noticed video cards polling if there is actually a device at other end, and disabling themselves if not the case during boot up.
[07:35] <robbie> !resolution
[07:35] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:35] <|chiz|> jhon, you can still use all the same apps as you do in gnome, even nautilus
[07:35] <evolker> quit
[07:35] <isilloke> oy
[07:35] <bill_gates> Yo.
[07:35] <jsizzle> mirage: hmm.. haven't really got into that since my laptops all have dead batteries :( but if it's not on ubuntuguide.org search google.com/linux
[07:35] <Rupert-Giles> Y0
[07:35] <Mirage> I'm using the hdparm command to set the standby timeouts for the hard disks
[07:35] <Goldfisch> Yao.
[07:36] <Mirage> as I couldn't find anywhere in the GUI to set them
[07:36] <Jordan_U> Saied, Looks like the way to set the timeout *may be* sudo usplash_write "TIMEOUT <value>"
[07:36] <jhon> its to big for download XFCE ? (to install in the same machine without reinstall or install Xubuntu )
[07:36] <Saied> Jordan_U: i found https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NoUsplashTimeout
[07:36] <czarny> hello
[07:36] <Mirage> Which is a bit bad, i think
[07:36] <jsizzle> Mirage: oh, the hdparm stuff is easy, you just edit /etc/hdparm.conf
[07:36] <isilloke> anybody know why i get horizontal lines in the wine window
[07:36] <czarny> my question is - why after updating to 7.04 and partly to gutsy kernels started to see my ide disks as sda ??
[07:36] <czarny> generally everything is seen as scsi
[07:36] <czarny> my cdrom
[07:36] <Mirage> That way, it'll set the timeouts for the harddisks at each system boot?
[07:36] <czarny> it stops my machine from booting
[07:36] <jsizzle> mirage: at the end there's a stanza for command line just uncomment and customize as neccesary
[07:36] <isilloke> i guessit doesn't have the same vertical refreshment as te screen
[07:37] <isilloke> but why?
[07:37] <tritium> czarny: gutsy questions in #ubuntu+1 please
[07:37] <Mirage> Doesn't sound like a too hard thing to implement in the powersave GUI settings
[07:37] <Mirage> If I knew how to code, I could have tried :p
[07:37] <eobanb> has anyone tried using their R300-based ati radeon with the open source radeon driver? i would like to know how stable/reliable the 3D acceleration is.
[07:38] <czarny> tritium: nevertheless should feisty use sg_mod to have everythins as a scsi device ?
[07:38] <jsizzle> mirage: just go into services and make sure hdparm is checked so it starts with your system
[07:38] <Jordan_U> Saied, If you know how to chroot in and create a custom LiveCD try running this in the chroot: sudo usplash_write "TIMEOUT 120"
[07:38] <jsizzle> mirage: but even if that is set the default config file does nothing unless you uncomment something and customize it
[07:38] <tritium> czarny: in general, don't try out packages (especially kernels) from an unstable release, unless you can tolerate occasional problems
[07:38] <Jordan_U> Saied, info obtained from: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-75132.html
[07:39] <czarny> tritium: I know, I'm a PLD developer
[07:39] <jsizzle> czarny: it does that on my dad's laptop and it seems to work fine, I went with the old "if it ain't broke..."
[07:39] <HiddenHax> does anyone know where to get the tahoma.ttf font ?? Other than the core fonts.
[07:39] <tritium> PLD?
[07:39] <czarny> tritium: Polish Linux Distribution
[07:39] <tritium> oh, sorry, not familiar
[07:40] <czarny> jsizzle: it started to make all Your disks scsii?
[07:40] <unix_infidel> anyone here running on a dell D620?
[07:40] <Saied> Jordan_U: what is the scale of 120 ?
[07:40] <czarny> tritium: do't be sorry :)
[07:40] <tritium> czarny: :)
[07:40] <Jordan_U> Saied, Looks like seconds
[07:41] <jsizzle> czarny: yeah but it just looks that way it emulates them as scsi and they still show up as their normal devs, it's interesting but since its working great I haven't bothered with looking into it yet. right now I'm trying to remove firefox on feisty without bringing down the whole f'in thing
[07:41] <jordan_> hey guys, is there a good / effective file recovery system for ubuntu?
[07:41] <jordan_> as in, from past partitions?
[07:41] <unix_infidel> jordan_: fsck.
[07:42] <czarny> jsizzle: did the transition go without problems to You?
[07:42] <isilloke>  oy
[07:42] <isilloke>  i think my wine window doesn't haave the same refreshment as the screen
[07:42] <isilloke>  how can i fix it?
[07:42] <isilloke>  i get unstable horizontal lines
[07:42] <czarny> jsizzle: I've found my /etc/fstab to be updated
[07:42] <jsizzle> jordan_: past partitions you've already made new partitions over top of?
[07:42] <tritium> jsizzle: you can remove firefox with no problem.
[07:42] <jordan_> jsizzle: yes
[07:42] <czarny> jsizzle: but grubs menu.lst wasn't
[07:42] <czarny> jsizzle: which coused problems
[07:42] <jsizzle> czarny: I didn't do an upgrade I always do seperate /home so I just formated / and installed feisty
[07:43] <newbie2006> Im running a laptop on ubuntu im wonderning how do i plug in an external monitor ????
[07:43] <jsizzle> tritium: it wants to take some stuff I like with it :(
[07:43] <newbie2006> anyone know how to get an external monitor to work on a laptop ???
[07:44] <jsizzle> tritium: know a way around that?
[07:44] <tritium> !ubuntu-dekstop | jsizzle
[07:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-dekstop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:44] <robbie> I've followed the FAQ, but I am still missing my native resolution in Xorg, which is 1280*1024. Right now I have 1280*960, which makes everything slightly distorted. I'm new to this, and don't know what I need to do to change it. 1280*1024 is listed in my Xorg.conf as a mode, but it's not available...
[07:44] <tritium> !ubuntu-desktop | jsizzle
[07:44] <ubotu> jsizzle: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[07:44] <Saied> jordan_Jordan_U : i need some time to test . thanks
[07:44] <unix_infidel> anyone here running ubuntu on a d620?
[07:44] <unix_infidel> (Dell)
[07:44] <Jordan_U> Saied, I may have misunderstood something now that I look at the man page...
[07:45] <newbie2006> how do i get my external screen to work on a laptop
[07:45] <Jordan_U> Saied,  "usplash_write - send commands to a running usplash daemon" So just running the command probably does not make a permanent change
[07:46] <avis> is there a good WYSIWYG html editor for feisty ?  package nvu seems to be missing from the repos
[07:46] <newbie2006> in windows i just push the fn key then f4
[07:46] <jsizzle> tritium: ok, I'm removing that now but it also wanted mplayer, we'll see if it changes its tune after the ubuntu-desktop uninstall
[07:46] <tonyyarusso> !nvu > avis
[07:46] <isilloke>  oy
[07:46] <isilloke>  i think my wine window doesn't haave the same refreshment as the screen
[07:46] <isilloke>  how can i fix it?
[07:46] <isilloke>  i get unstable horizontal lines
[07:46] <newbie2006> HOW DO I GET MY MONITOR TO CONNECT TO MY LAPTOP ANYONE KNOW ?
[07:47] <tritium> no need to yell, newbie2006
[07:47] <Saied> jordan_Jordan_U : yaah . the problem exists
[07:47] <jsizzle> tritium: it still wants to take ubuntu-restricted-extras and mplayer-mozilla which I want for swiftfox to use :(
[07:47] <czarny> newbie2006: YOu get the chord from the monitor and plug it into the laptop
[07:47] <newbie2006> ive plugged it in
[07:47] <strabes> newbie2006: restart your computer?
[07:47] <selkies> does ubuntu have a firewall enabled by default?

[07:48] <czarny> newbie2006: or key combinations
[07:48] <newbie2006> whats the key combination ?
[07:48] <HiddenHax> avis sry "Private messages from unregistered users are currently blocked due to spam problems"
[07:48] <jsizzle> newbie2006: is there perhaps a <Fn> + F(1-12) key combo like most laptops?
[07:48] <peepsalot> how can i get my kernel drivers source and vie wit?
[07:48] <peepsalot> view it
[07:48] <newbie2006> yeh that wnt work
[07:48] <tritium> jsizzle: hmm?  It doesn't depend on those packages...
[07:48] <newbie2006> fn key wnt respond
[07:48] <Twisties> HALP
[07:48] <HiddenHax> avis that would be great
[07:48] <selkies> does ubuntu have a firewall enabled by default?
[07:48] <czarny> newbie2006: well - fn + some F something
[07:48] <Twisties> sound card
[07:48] <avis> ok HiddenHax
[07:48] <cafuego> selkies: no
[07:48] <Oewyn> does anyone know how to install the libvideogfx library, there is no debian package for it and i'm having some strange compiler errors.
[07:48] <selkies> do i need one?
[07:48] <Saied> jordan_Jordan_U : maybe i found it . in usplash source code i found : /* Number of seconds to wait for a command before exiting */
[07:48] <Saied> static int timeout = 15;
[07:49] <Twisties> cant get mPlayer to give audio playback on SoundBlaster audigy
[07:49] <cafuego> selkies: It also doesn't have any open ports by default, so that's fine.
[07:49] <selkies> oh i see
[07:49] <jsizzle> tritium: problem solved, dpkg --remove --force-depends firefox
[07:50] <flowingfire> Hello.... I'm typing to you stuck in Virtualbox... Does anybody know the command to get my keyboard and mouse back into linux instead of in the Virtualbox?
[07:50] <tritium> jsizzle: be careful using that
[07:50] <HiddenHax> avis awesome =)
[07:50] <SurfnKid> ubuntu rocks
[07:50] <SurfnKid> period
[07:50] <jeffwheeler> flowingfire: ctrl+alt? what do you mean VirtualBox? you mean a vm?
[07:50] <SloggerKhan> So I've connected to an exchange server with evolution and it connects to the contacts and such. However, I have 2 questions. How do I see people
[07:50] <SloggerKhan> s
[07:50] <avis> your welcome HiddenHax
[07:50] <avis> its all of them
[07:50] <Jordan_U> Saied, Recompiling is probably overkill, again, how much time do you have to work on this ( do you need it quick dirty and NOW, or do you have time to do it correctly ) ?
[07:51] <SloggerKhan> calendars?
[07:51] <flowingfire> Jeffwheller: Yeah I'm running Windows XP virtually inside ubuntu... and I'm stuck
[07:51] <HiddenHax> avis Thanks!
[07:51] <jeffwheeler> flowingfire: and ctrl+alt doesn't work? what are you using to emulate?
[07:51] <tritium> SloggerKhan: you can see their availability when you try to setup a meeting
[07:51] <flowingfire> It's probably some simple command too
[07:51] <cafuego> SloggerKhan: You'll need to set up calendars
[07:51] <Saied> Jordan_U: why overkill ?
[07:51] <flowingfire> nope ctrl-alt doesn't work... it just registers the command in windows... I'm using VirtualBox to emulate
[07:51] <Matrix9> Is anyone here running ubuntu in vmware 6? The mouse isn't able to move accross the whole desktop after awhile, I installed the vmware tools by converting the rpm into a deb but didn't help.
[07:52] <flowingfire> lol i got myself into a silly mes
[07:52] <HiddenHax> avis got it
[07:53] <jeffwheeler> VirtualBox is interesting; I wonder how I've never seen it before... I've always used qemu and Parallels (for Ubuntu and OS X respectively)
[07:53] <arya^> ok, just ordered a cheapie intel mobo... if that doesnt work, then i'll just give up on ubuntu and install windows *sigh*
[07:53] <Jordan_U> Saied, Compiling has many downsides like not updating with apt, and I think this can be done by simply adding sudo usplash_write "TIMEOUT 120" in a startup script
[07:53] <flowingfire> kewl. :)
[07:53] <Saied> Jordan_U: i think this the only way
[07:53] <SloggerKhan> So the only ways to find contacts on the exchange server are to search by name and the only ways to see peoples calendars are to setup a meeting and click Free/Busy''?
[07:54] <strabes> anyone know what the deal is with this? alex@alex-laptop:~$ ark
[07:54] <strabes> ERROR: Communication problem with ark, it probably crashed.
[07:54] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu_L> Hi, my wireless card wasn't working properly so I unplugged it and re-plugged it back in and now Ubuntu doesn't list it in the network window. How can I fix this?
[07:54] <Saied> Jordan_U: no . apt-get source usplash && <changes> && cd usplash && fakeroot debian/rules binary   . not very hard
[07:54] <tritium> SloggerKhan: no, not to find contacts.  That wasn't what you originally asked...
[07:54] <tritium> You asked how to see their calendars...
[07:54] <SloggerKhan> Yeah, different questions. But at least true for calendars?
[07:55] <flowingfire> Oh well... i'm going to join vbox and see if anyone can help... thx
[07:55] <SloggerKhan> That you must click free busy from setup meeting?
[07:55] <Jordan_U> Saied, Yea, but I thought you were distributing this to others, or am I mistaken?
[07:55] <Defian> Does anyone know how to get UT04's sound to work decently? it's all distorted..
[07:55] <theshadow> My audio just stopped for no reason I can think of, where can I look for some trouble shooting steps?
[07:56] <SirBob1701> hey guys if they center pin on the ethernet jack (inside the computer) is bent down some will it cuase you not to receive an ip (trying to find a pin guide online to find out)
[07:56] <tritium> SloggerKhan: to see contacts, make sure you've setup the Global Catalog server name
[07:57] <Jordan_U> Saied, Look at the last post on this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75132
[07:58] <SloggerKhan> Like I said initially I had 2 questions. One was how to see people's calendars, which I've found you go new>meeting>>free busy.
[07:58] <SloggerKhan> The other is that under Contacts, I can click on global address list. Once there, I can search by letter and it will return names. However, if I click on Global Address List and do not search, it says "search for the contact" and does not display anything.
[07:58] <hidan> hello does anyone know what happened to the package "checkinstall"? I'm booting from the livecd and can't find the package in synaptic
[07:58] <tritium> !info checkinstall

[07:58] <mrwilloby> Does anyone know a reason why Ubuntu would stop connecting to the internet upon boot while Windows and another Linux continue to?
[07:58] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu> Hi, my wireless card wasn't working properly so I unplugged it and re-plugged it back in and now Ubuntu doesn't list it in the network window. How can I fix this?
[07:59] <jsizzle> mrwilloby: wireless?
[07:59] <mrwilloby> nope
[07:59] <mrwilloby> wired school network
[07:59] <skylight> i was trying to change the Ubuntu Logo Next to applications, and i dont know how to do it, if someone could help me and actually know what there talking about, that would be great.
[07:59] <tritium> mrwilloby: what type of NIC?
[07:59] <mrwilloby> tritium: built-in to the MB
[07:59] <jsizzle> Nrbelex_Ubuntu: open terminal type without quotes "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[07:59] <hidan> okay thank you... i'm reloading synaptic now . may it go well. :p
[08:00] <tritium> mrwilloby: nVidia MCP51, by chance?
[08:00] <Zorbo> guys, I'm thinking about installing ubuntu but I have some concerns
[08:00] <skylight> lol ubuntu rocks
[08:00] <Jordan_U> Saied, If you don't mind I am curious how this turns out for you ( if it works ) :)
[08:00] <skylight> exspecially with beryl
[08:00] <Zorbo> I'm running it from a CD now and it seems great - but, this is a laptop that came preinstalled with Vista
[08:00] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu> jsizzle, still not listed
[08:00] <mrwilloby> tritium: in Windows it says VIA Rhine II
[08:01] <skylight> lol it works wel on laptops
[08:01] <Zorbo> it was built with it and everything was all preinstalled
[08:01] <Zorbo> drivers and stuff too
[08:01] <tritium> mrwilloby: hmm, okay.  The one I mentioned actually requires hard reset to work properly (firmware issue, I believe)
[08:01] <skylight> hmm it might actually be better because it was installed with windows
[08:01] <SloggerKhan> tritium: I haven't used exchange servers before and I was expecting a way to browse like browsing a telephone book, and also that if I viewed a contact I could right click on their name and hit something like "view calendar". I have figured out to a certain extent how to use both features and am mostly wondering if there are any ways to interact with them in ways closer to those I sorta expected initially.
[08:01] <Zorbo> what do you mean?
[08:01] <Zorbo> how could it be better?
[08:01] <jsizzle> Nrbelex_Ubuntu: ok short answer reboot, long answer track down all modules that load to support your NIC and rmmod them then modprobe them all, tis up to you
[08:02] <skylight> you would be using the same graphics cards, and other stuff, it would actually make ubuntu more worth using
[08:02] <skinnypuppy1334> I need to boot my 7.04 into terminal and reconfigure xserver, how do I boot to terminal? I've tried hitting esc but don't know what to do at grub>
[08:02] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu> how does one look up what modules they have loading
[08:02] <mrwilloby> everything works fine in other OSs, even live CDs of Ubuntu don't connect
[08:02] <tritium> SloggerKhan: no, you can't really browse the entire directory
[08:02] <Zorbo> I still don't get what you're getting at
[08:02] <skylight> thw windows comps seem to come with good graphic cards
[08:02] <hidan> jordan_U: woohoo that well. thank you! :)
[08:02] <Zorbo> not this one, heh, system graphics
[08:02] <jsizzle> skinnypuppy1334: ctrl+alt+f1, once in there it's ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to X
[08:02] <skylight> ohh
[08:02] <mrwilloby> it just started happening after a reboot
[08:03] <jsizzle> Nrbelex_Ubuntu: lsmod
[08:03] <SloggerKhan> tritium: Thanks
[08:03] <skylight> well my computer was windows, i just unstalled ubuntu over it and it works very well, and fast
[08:03] <Jordan_U> skinnypuppy1334, Just press ctlr+alt+F1 after X crashes
[08:03] <|chiz|> skinnypuppy1334: alt-ctrl-F1 should give you a terminal
[08:03] <|chiz|> dam
[08:03] <Zorbo> was Windows preinstalled on it?
[08:03] <skylight> yes
[08:03] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu> jsizzle, then sudo modprobe modulename
[08:03] <Zorbo> hm
[08:03] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu> ???
[08:03] <orbin> Zorbo: windows and ubuntu can co-exist on the same drive.  you'd be "dualbooting".  the installer will give you the option to resize the windows partition to create room for ubuntu.  make sure you backup vital data before you install.
[08:03] <Zorbo> I still have some reservations
[08:03] <robbie> I've followed the FAQ, but I am still missing my native resolution in Xorg, which is 1280*1024. Right now I have 1280*960, which makes everything slightly distorted. I'm new to this, and don't know what I need to do to change it. 1280*1024 is listed in my Xorg.conf as a mode, but it's not available...
[08:04] <skylight> ok like what
[08:04] <leperkhanz> We got the new wine in the repos yet?
[08:04] <robbie> I am using an nvidia card
[08:04] <Zorbo> well, compatability issues mostly, with all the hardware in my laptop
[08:04] <skylight> ubuntu is far more flexible then WIndows, anyone agree
[08:04] <jsizzle> zorbo: use gnome partition editor to resize your vista partition make room for ubuntu and install it try it out if you don't like it boot the installer disk again fire up partition editor and delete the ubuntu partition and expand vista back to the old size no fuss no muss
[08:04] <ste-foy> Bonne nuit tout le monde
[08:04] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu> and how do you disable a module
[08:04] <d3m0> does ubuntu server have an interface?
[08:04] <skylight> lol yes
[08:04] <Jordan_U> robbie, System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution
[08:04] <skylight> gnome
[08:04] <jsizzle> Nrbelex_Ubuntu: modprobe installs modules into the kernel rmmod removes them
[08:04] <ste-foy> aie sorry here for my french sentence
[08:04] <robbie> !blacklist Nrbelex_Ubuntu
[08:04] <robbie> !blacklist | Nrbelex_Ubuntu
[08:04] <ubotu> Nrbelex_Ubuntu: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u
[08:05] <skinnypuppy1334> I can't boot that far, after the status bar loads the login prompt never appears. I'd had 7.04 running a few days and it just froze
[08:05] <Zorbo> hm I guess I could run a dual boot
[08:05] <skinnypuppy1334> I'm in live 6.06 now
[08:05] <yuki> test
[08:05] <orbin> d3m0: afaik, no, it doesn't come with any desktop environments
[08:05] <skylight> thats what im doing
[08:05] <robbie> Jordan_U,  1280*1024 isn't in there, that's why I'm stuck at 1280*960
[08:05] <skylight> except im using a port switch
[08:05] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu> jsizzle and robbie, thanks
[08:05] <jsizzle> Nrbelex_Ubuntu:  NOTE blacklisting is not something you want to do with a module you'll ever want to automatically load again when you reboot
[08:05] <robbie> Nrbelex_Ubuntu,  np
[08:05] <jsizzle> Nrbelex_Ubuntu: in other words don't do that
[08:05] <d3m0> thanks
[08:05] <skylight> welcome
[08:05] <skylight> hope you enjoy it
[08:06] <skylight> anymore questions ill answer
[08:06] <yuki> i m a fresh man here
[08:06] <Jordan_U> robbie, What kind of card?
[08:06] <Nrbelex_Ubuntu> jsizzle, so rmod them?
[08:06] <mwales> Any mono or c# developers in here, i have a mono question
[08:06] <skinnypuppy1334> is there some way I could mount that partition and add something to grub that will take me straigh to terminal ? ?
[08:06] <robbie> GeForce 5600
[08:06] <imrazor> robbie: are you using nvidia restricted module?
[08:06] <skylight> i used to c++
[08:06] <Rupert-Giles> READY FOR TAKE OFF?!?!?!!:EONEone
[08:06] <robbie> I've also got a 7600 but I think that I'm underpowered with that, so it kills my system every so often
[08:07] <robbie> imrazor, yes
[08:07] <|chiz|> skinnypuppy1334: if you boot the recovery console that will give you the terminal
[08:07] <imrazor> under applications>system tools, do you see nvidia x server settings?
[08:07] <carutsu> where may i change the boot check of a disk? I want to disable and not to check windows drives, it has a error or something and i gotta wait every time i boot for it to check it
[08:07] <skinnypuppy1334> I hit escape and chose recovery, but I only got" grub> "
[08:07] <|chiz|> skinnypuppy1334: its also known as single user mode
[08:08] <Jordan_U> robbie, Are you using the Restricted nvidia driver?
[08:08] <Zorbo> in GNOME partition edior
[08:08] <jsizzle> Nrbelex_Ubuntu: rmmod them one by one till all the modules or just one perhaps which is for your NIC then modprobe each back in, check lsmod in between sometimes when you load one module it loads the rest for you
[08:08] <robbie> Jordan_U, yes
[08:08] <Zorbo> all the options for new partition or resizing are greyed out
[08:08] <imrazor> robbie:  under applications>system tools, do you see nvidia x server
[08:08] <mwales> I'm trying to learn .NET remoting from a C# book (thats more geared towards using Visual Studio.NET on Windows).  Anyways, it has "using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp;" in the example, but it won't compile using mono
[08:08] <Zorbo> there's a padlock icon next to each one, I'm assuming that means they're locked out
[08:08] <carutsu> Zorbo: was it for me?
[08:08] <imrazor>           settings?
[08:08] <jsizzle> carutsu: in fstab make the last number a 0 to disable filesystem checking
[08:08] <mrwilloby> Where should I start to get a wired internet connection back in Ubuntu when it works if I boot into other OSs
[08:08] <robbie> imrazor, no it's not there
[08:09] <jsizzle> mrwilloby: /etc/network/interfaces
[08:09] <|chiz|> skinnypuppy1334: can you boot anything from your grub menu?
[08:09] <robbie> and doing nvidia-config from console doesn't let me change it either
[08:09] <Jordan_U> mwales, System.runtime... sounds OS specific to me
[08:09] <carutsu> jsizzle: fstab, got it, i knew there had to change a 0 somewhere
[08:09] <imrazor> robbie: at a command prompt do "sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings"
[08:09] <skinnypuppy1334> all I have is normal , recovery and memtest.
[08:09] <mrwilloby> jsizzle: and do what with that file? I've looked at it...
[08:09] <jsizzle> mrwilloby: does the entry for eth0 or whatever dev reps your NIC look like the right settings?
[08:10] <skinnypuppy1334> recovery only drops me at grub>
[08:10] <Anguis> Hi, folks - I'm using Feisty 64 and can only boot using recovery mode in GRUB - anything bad for the computer doing it this way?
[08:10] <|chiz|> skinnypuppy1334: and you can't boot recovery?
[08:10] <robbie> imrazor, now restart x?
[08:10] <jsizzle> skinnypuppy1334: then recovery isn't working
[08:10] <leperkhanz> Upgrade the wine repos to .9.37 or I will kill this puppy!
[08:10] <mrwilloby> jsizzle: it looked the same to me as the help file
[08:10] <mwales> Jordan:  yeah, I haven't quite got the whole mono vs. VS.NET thing figured out yet.  I'm thinking about getting a book geared towards mono
[08:10] <imrazor> robbie: no, look under Applications>System Tools for nvidia
[08:10] <skinnypuppy1334> can I mount that disk and do anything usefull?
[08:11] <sef_> please help:   when I boot from the feisty fawn CD, my networking is fine, when I install and boot from HD, I have no visible networks.  I know the module for my network card is via_rhine, and I've modprobed that, but still nothing.  Anyone got a suggenstion?
[08:11] <Anguis> When I get the prompt, I type 'exit' and the comp boots into ubuntu. . .
[08:11] <holycow> mwales, do you know what .net is as a concept?
[08:11] <robbie> imrazor, still not there
[08:11] <jsizzle> mrwilloby: do this w/out quotes "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" and watch what happens you should see some error or something
[08:11] <Jordan_U> skinnypuppy1334, You can try chrooting in and running "update-grub"
[08:11] <robbie> brb restarting x
[08:11] <|chiz|> skinnypuppy1334: sure you can boot another operating system and mount the disc and do what ever you want with it
[08:11] <Tom47> leperkhanz wine will almst certainly NOT be upgraded in the repos ... o check out winhq and get the ubuntu deb fro the latest release instaed
[08:12] <imrazor> robbie: OK, try ALT-F2 then type "nvidia-settings", click Run
[08:12] <DLB|Maximus> anyone know if there is a degrees symbol in the character map?
[08:12] <jsizzle> sef_: check the network manager in the system tray
[08:12] <Matrix9> Where is the Gnome/Hal device manager located in Ubuntu? can't seem the find the icon
[08:12] <skinnypuppy1334> I just don't know what to do with it when i mount it .. I'll do that first and hop back in a minute.
[08:12] <Anguis> .. .and it looks like things work properly booting this way - the normal way hangs the computer in what looks like a suspended restart.
[08:12] <mrwilloby> jsizzle: I'm not in Ubuntu at the moment, only one PC, and the error when I did that before was something like DHCP connection not reached
[08:12] <avis> what is the channel for desktop effects ?
[08:12] <carutsu> jsizzle: what does a 2 mean? my /home partition has a 2
[08:12] <holycow> #beryl
[08:12] <Jordan_U> avis, #desktop-effects
[08:12] <sef_> jsizzle: it just tells me there are no networks.  and when I run dhclient, it gets no response.  Also, I'm not seeing any activity lights on my switch
[08:12] <avis> thank you
[08:13] <DLB|Maximus> avis: ubuntu-effects
[08:13] <leperkhanz> Tom47: Where is the latest .deb?
[08:13] <jsizzle> mrwilloby: well, if it's a desktop why not just give it a static IP? it makes ya boot faster, that's always important to me :)
[08:13] <sef_> jsizzle: to be clear, I see the link light.. but no activity light
[08:13] <Zorbo> to create a partition do I have to label the filesystem?
[08:13] <Jordan_U> avis, I meant #ubuntu-effects :)
[08:13] <isilloke> anyone got heredis through wine?
[08:13] <leperkhanz> #winehq is kinda stuck up and pissy with Ubuntu users over some STUPID /. article.
[08:13] <DLB|Maximus> lol
[08:13] <avis> thank you Jordan_U
[08:13] <holycow> leperkhanz, heh
[08:13] <|chiz|> Anguis: recovery mode is always logged in as root which is bad as it is easy to make unforgiving mistakes
[08:13] <jsizzle> carutsu: I'm not sure, I just read about disabling the checking for my winblows partition on the scrap machine I'm building
[08:13] <holycow> theres room for everyone
[08:13] <holycow> even if we hate each other
[08:14] <mrwilloby> jsizzle: I'm plugged into a campus network
[08:14] <carutsu> jsizzle: thank you anyway
[08:14] <Tom47> leperkhanz: checkout http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[08:14] <jsizzle> sef_: ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:14] <carutsu> leperkhanz: eh? what did the article say?
[08:14] <jsizzle> sef_: see if it responds
[08:14] <leperkhanz> religion and dairy at the same time... I hate you holycow.
[08:14] <Zorbo> brb
[08:14] <holycow> leperkhanz, cheeze with some jesus perhaps?
[08:14] <leperkhanz> It just said that wine wouldn't be included *by default* in the Ubuntu that would be on Dell.
[08:14] <sef_> jsizzle: yep, response straight away
[08:14] <d3m0> how do I get to gnome from command line in ubuntu server?
[08:14] <robbie> imrazor, With nvidia-settings installed my x won't start
[08:14] <d3m0> I tried startx but it doesn't work
[08:15] <Anguis> ok, that's what I saw - I typed exit at the prompt and things worked then, however, that's the only way I can boot into ubuntu, at the moment.
[08:15] <jsizzle> mrwilloby: that answers that, ok well for a temp fix write down the ip in winblows and static it temporarily your lease should last at least 24hrs
[08:15] <holycow> d3lf, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[08:15] <leperkhanz> But it was poorly written, and if English isn't your first language, and you were a wine fan, it would piss you off.
[08:15] <jsizzle> carutsu: np
[08:15] <jsizzle> sef_: your network card is working the problems in your config
[08:15] <carutsu> leperkhanz: what the no wine ubuntu-dell agreement?
[08:15] <holycow> if that doesnt work install gdm and start again
[08:15] <mrwilloby> jsizzle: good idea, I'll try that in a bit, thanks
[08:15] <Jordan_U> leperkhanz, I think having it installed by default would be a horrible idea ( but this is all offtopic :)
[08:15] <Nrbelex> Has anyone ever seen the BIOS on a computer ever decide that it will load at a different resolution than everything else?
[08:15] <mwales> holycow:  not totally.  I'm doing some basic OO GUI development at work using VS.NET 2005.  It's been suggested that I make it use .NET services, but I'm unfamiliar with them.  So I'm trying to learn at home, but at the same time I'm very new to Mono.
[08:15] <imrazor> robbie: do you know anything about your monitor?
[08:15] <sef_> jsizzle: I do see two versions of the interface though, which is odd.... eth0 and eth0:avah
[08:15] <jsizzle> mrwilloby: np
[08:16] <robbie> imrazor, like what specifically?
[08:16] <holycow> mwales, well probably going to the mono channel would be best but ...
[08:16] <|chiz|> Anguis, you should try to fix normal boot as its alot safer
[08:16] <jsizzle> sef_: that's ok.. that shouldn't be the problem, are you using dhcp?
[08:16] <sef_> jsizzle: (when I run ifconfig that is)
[08:16] <imrazor> robbie: horiz/vert refresh rates, resolutions
[08:16] <robbie> I know it's got a refresh rate from 60-80hz and that it's native resolution is 1280*1024
[08:16] <holycow> from the big picture, .net is the same as java
[08:16] <holycow> one runtime app that runs other apps created in various languages
[08:16] <sef_> jsizzle: yes, but I tried manually configuring through the gui, and it still got no life
[08:16] <imrazor> robbie: horizontal and vertical rates, resolutions. is it lcd?
[08:16] <Anguis> why would exiting from the recovery mode work and not the normal way? How would I fix it when it hangs?
[08:16] <jsizzle> yeah but .net smells funny cuz M$ made it
[08:17] <levon> this is why i hate microcrap
[08:17] <d3m0> how do I get to gnome from command line in ubuntu server?
[08:17] <sef_> jsizzle: as a test.. is it possible for me to completely disable ipv6?
[08:17] <holycow> the big difference is that java runtime only supports java (more or less) and .net supports a whole bunch of languages, mostly poorly from a security perspective
[08:17] <tallman> hello everyone
[08:17] <domster> does anyone know where system -> preferences -> screen resolution actually makes its changes?
[08:17] <leperkhanz> Jordan_U: I agree, it was a really poorly written article stating the obvious, and devoid of any actual information at all.  Like a regular /. article these days.
[08:17] <imrazor> ?
[08:17] <jsizzle> sef_: yeah I do that, just add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[08:17] <Anguis> I'd love to be able to boot normally. . . thanks for the help
[08:17] <sef_> jsizzle: thanks.. back in two
[08:17] <domster> I'm guessing it's not the standard /etc/X11/xorg.conf because it's profile specific
[08:17] <orbin> d3m0: there is no gnome in ubuntu server.  you'd have to install it.
[08:17] <holycow> mwales, mono is trying to replicate c# and asp.net compatability with their own runtime
[08:17] <jsizzle> sef_: the syntax should be obvious when you edit the file, btw only root can edit it
[08:17] <robbie> imrazor, it's a rosewill lcd. 19", with native of 1280*1024, 59-80horiz, I don't remember the vert
[08:17] <|chiz|> Anguis, when you boot recover mode you tell the kernel that you are going to work in single user mode that is why exit doesn't work
[08:17] <ImNew> hey
[08:18] <Twisties> Damn I droppe dout before. Anyone know how to get mPLayer to playback audio through a sound card instead of onboard?
[08:18] <d3m0> orbin: ok, thanks
[08:18] <orbin> d3m0: i told you earlier.
[08:18] <ImNew> does anybody have the exe file for photoshop cs2?
[08:18] <d3m0> orbin: didn't see it..sorry..thanks again
[08:18] <tallman> is there a way to convert a .wma file to .mp3 in the linux world ?
[08:18] <tritium> ImNew: no warez discussions here
[08:18] <jsizzle> Twisties: have you tried right click then prefs?
[08:18] <holycow> mwales, and frankly i'm hugely against mono my self i think its a gian waste of time that will end up being wasted in court.  if one does .net it will onlly really ever trully run on windows so ... you may as well just use their tools
[08:18] <holycow> but mono people seem to disagree
[08:18] <imrazor> robbie: you still there?
[08:18] <sef_> jsizzle: np, I have a root term open
[08:18] <jsizzle> tallman: yes it's called mplayer and lame and maybe a shell script if you wanna be fancy
[08:18] <robbie> imrazor, yes
[08:18] <mwales> Yeah, I've seen that.  But I'm totally lost on the GUI stuff.  The mono folks all talk about GTK# and stuff, but the Windows stuff uses Windows forms.  And I'm not real sure if Mono is compatible.
[08:19] <robbie> imrazor, it's a rosewill lcd. 19", with native of 1280*1024, 59-80horiz, I don't remember the vert
[08:19] <holycow> mwales, the basic answer is no
[08:19] <|chiz|> Anguis, you should edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst so that the line for booting normal ubuntu doens't have the splash or the quiet options
[08:19] <tallman> jsizzle: thanks
[08:19] <Twisties> jsizzle: Yes I have
[08:19] <holycow> mwales, the real answer is maybe depending on lots of considerations
[08:19] <jsizzle> tallman: np
[08:19] <Twisties> and no options seem to work
[08:19] <Milage> why would one ask for a photoshop key in a linucx channel anyway?
[08:19] <imrazor> robbie: first look in /etc/X11 and see if you have any backup xorg.conf files
[08:19] <|chiz|> Anguis, that should let you see where it is hanging
[08:19] <jsizzle> Twisties: and configuring the sound output plugin and selecting the sound card to use?
[08:19] <robbie> imrazor, it's a fresh install, there;s nothing
[08:20] <holycow> mwales, frankly you can either choose to just code on windows for windows or you can spend the rest of your life debugging cross platform stuff on an implemenetation that will run afould of ms patents sooner or later
[08:20] <holycow> :/
[08:20] <Twisties> jsizzle: I did. using the same selecttion as XMMS uses
[08:20] <imrazor> robbie: when you did apt-get did the installer ask you to reconfig anything?
[08:20] <levon> i found that my computer was running very slow on the internet i couldnt figure out why i have been spending about a week trying to figure it out then the answer shined through my sister in law is also on my wireless network shes running microcrap i told her i check it out and went and saw in one glimps major problems no firewall no virus scan so i set it up sp2 firewall worked nice then dug for the nearest virus scan avast installed it
[08:20] <levon> and fixed everything she had over 1000 trojans because of a generator she had 300 viruses and 2 worms i have never seen this much crapola on one computer anyways i fix my network and thanks to nothing microcraps stupid system. lol this is why once again i hate microcrap
[08:20] <Twisties> jsizzle: And XMMS works
[08:20] <holycow> mwales, but actually don't listen to me, talk to mono people they can give you the gory details
[08:20] <Anguis> typing 'exit'at the root prompt actually is what lets me boot as it used to w/ 32 bit feisty - I then have to log in normally. Just delete those commands and save?
[08:20] <robbie> imrazor, nope
[08:20] <Oewyn> I have a file that i'm trying to compile that's dependent on <X11/extensions/Xvlib.h> what package should i install to make sure it exists?
[08:20] <holycow> oh look there is a #mono channel
[08:21] <Anguis> thanks
[08:21] <Jordan_U> !offtopic | levon
[08:21] <ubotu> levon: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:21] <mwales> holycow.  yeah i hear you on the whole .net not really being open.  My work is pretty much a Windows shop, so I'm trying to pick my poison.  C# was a better alternative than MFC.  I use Ubuntu at home
[08:21] <jsizzle> Twisties: do you use the onboard sound for anything? why not just blacklist it's module so it's simply not available and the secondary card becomes the default card?
[08:21] <robbie> imrazor, Should I just scrap my current xorg.conf and reconfigure it?
[08:21] <levon> lol
[08:21] <Twisties> jsizzle: Because I have 0 idea how to
[08:21] <imrazor> robbie: yep. usual method is "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[08:21] <levon> well jordan i came here before trying to fix the network and no one could figure it out now i know why
[08:21] <robbie> thanks
[08:21] <jiping> hi,
[08:22] <imrazor> robbie: with sudo of course.
[08:22] <holycow> mwales, thats an interesting point you raise
[08:22] <holycow> mwales, as a windows shop what choice do you have?
[08:22] <robbie> imrazor, obv. Thanks
[08:22] <holycow> either do .net or what? asp.net and deploy on iis as web app?
[08:22] <domster> My X11 starts up with the correct resolution/refresh rate, but once I log in swaps down to a crappy refresh rate. gnome-display-properties is no help.  Where is the user-specific screen resolution/refresh rate stored?
[08:22] <jiping> who can introduce some interesting software in ubuntu
[08:22] <holycow> mwales, perhaps you can give qt and some of the qt bindings a try
[08:22] <Jordan_U> levon, Oh, nvm then ;)
[08:22] <tallman> jiping: ///what are you interested in?
[08:22] <holycow> c++ ... donno what other bindings there are
[08:23] <Jordan_U> jiping, bb, xmoto
[08:23] <sef_> jsizzle: no joy.. still no networking
[08:23] <jsizzle> Twisties: do this w/out quotes "dmesg | less" then read all that crap and look for where your soundcard gets initialized it will say what driver it's using, then blacklist that module in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[08:23] <jiping> bb?
[08:23] <jiping> what is that?
[08:23] <disinterested> xmoto is addicting
[08:23] <jsizzle> sef_: dhcp right?
[08:23] <Jordan_U> jiping, The most awesome ASCII art demonstration I have ever seen :)
[08:24] <tallman> !xmoto
[08:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xmoto - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:24] <sef_> jsizzle: yep.. trying manual now
[08:24] <Twisties> ok, ill boot into ubuntu and try it no jsizzle
[08:24] <DSteele> hello
[08:24] <jsizzle> sef_: well did you edit /etc/network/interfaces?
[08:24] <jiping> Johbe, really?
[08:24] <Twisties> be back on here in a jiffy
[08:24] <mwales> holycow, yeah QT would have been a good option.  The negative thing is that everyone there has 0 QT experience since it's mostly windows users.  It would have been a hard sell and I would have got raked over the coals had something go wrong.  I'm just trying to work in more open source here and there where I can and maybe I can pitch something like QT in a few years
[08:24] <jsizzle> Twisties: if possible print it out, that way if you have to come back and ask questions you'll have more info
[08:25] <sef_> jsizzle: no, its still the installed default
[08:25] <jsizzle> sef_: ya might wanna just take a look at it before switching to manual
[08:25] <cotki> #armia_polska
[08:25] <sef_> jsizzle: auto eth0 / iface eth0 inet dhcp
[08:26] <jsizzle> sef: is there NIC's listed that you don't actually have like eth1 eth2?
[08:26] <sef_> jsizzle: yes
[08:26] <aleksanteri> how can i change my keyboard layout?
[08:26] <jsizzle> sef_: put a # in front of the lines for the ones that are imaginary
[08:27] <jsizzle> sef_: why config things you don't have right?
[08:27] <sef_> jsizzle: hehe, ok gimme a sec
[08:27] <jsizzle> sef_: then retry sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[08:27] <disinterested> aleksanteri system>preferences
[08:27] <aleksanteri> but in console? am on kde
[08:28] <ebuth> my wireless is working fine, but does anyone know of a nice GUI wireless monitor that would fit nicely right next to the clock? :-)
[08:28] <theshadow> how can I restart the audio? everything says it should be working but it just died on me when I rebooted...
[08:28] <jsizzle> has anyone else installed linux on a SPARC box? it's interesting I gotta say
[08:29] <theshadow> or how can I unmute the audio (from the command line)
[08:29] <thebillywayne> aleksanteri, edit the keymap line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  or you can 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[08:29] <DSteele> theshadow,  um alsamixer
[08:29] <jsizzle> theshadow: sudo apt-get install aumix ; aumix
[08:30] <mwales> ebuth, kde has a nice wifi monitor.  i think its called knetworkmanager
[08:30] <jsizzle> ebuth: xfce has a pretty cool one too
[08:30] <jsizzle> ebuth: it's built in
[08:30] <ebuth> mwales, this maybe a dumb question, but will KDE apps work in gnome?
[08:30] <Rupert-Giles> yeh
[08:31] <Rupert-Giles> that was dumb
[08:31] <jsizzle> lol
[08:31] <Rupert-Giles> >_<
[08:31] <sef_> jsizzle: ok, restarted networking, and I'm still not getting an address... when I run tcpdump, I'm not seeing anything at all
[08:31] <mwales> ebuth, most do.  i use amarok all the time
[08:31] <ebuth> sadface :-(
[08:31] <Vektis> Hi, have got quiet audio in two Ubuntu installs, with different sound hardware... where can I adjust volume? Prefs|Volume does nothing
[08:31] <Rupert-Giles> ebuth be happy :D
[08:31] <ebuth> mwales, ok ill give it a shot, ty

[08:33] <Vektis> anyone help wit hvolume?
[08:33] <jsizzle> theshadow: np
[08:33] <|chiz|> Vektis: open the volume control window and goto file->change device
[08:33] <theshadow> DSteele: I'm still having a problem with the audio where is there a sound I can test with aplay? cause according to everything else I've checked its all working
[08:34] <|chiz|> Vektis, try adjusting those bars, that is if there is another device
[08:34] <sef_> jsizzle: so at least I know the cable is ok as well, lol (unfortunately it was nothing to do with this box)  trying manual config now
[08:34] <thebillywayne> Vektis, i think lots of folks are having your problem.  read here:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=373287&highlight=low+volume
[08:35] <Vektis> aha! I searched "quiet sound" :)
[08:35] <thebillywayne> Vektis, ubuntuforums is the first place I check.
[08:35] <Vektis> I did :)
[08:35] <mwales> ebuth, i've done a little
[08:35] <twisties> jsizzle: what exactly am I looking for in the infos that come up?
[08:36] <Nrbelex> Where's the best channel to ask about a computer's BIOS?
[08:36] <Vektis> ahha - my 5.1 speakers have to be selected in prefs, and set *individually*; main control does nothing!
[08:36] <twisties> NrbelexL what do you need to know?
[08:36] <twisties> Nrbelex*
[08:36] <|chiz|> Vektis, what sound device do you have?
[08:37] <Vektis> jebus, that's load this time of morning! thanks!
[08:37] <jsizzle> twisties: well your looking for your sound card name
[08:37] <vladuz976> what's a good blogging software?
[08:37] <xjkx> i dont care for languages, then i didnt download the language CD, somethings here is in english but i understand english, problem is that i cant see accent keys, its probably the charset, how do i change system's charset? its probably using UTF-8 and i need iso8859-1 or its using iso and i need utf-8, unsure
[08:37] <Nrbelex> twisties, well I was fooling around trying to reconnect my wireless card (Which I finally got working) but now the resolution on the BIOS splash screen has changed. It also affects the Ubuntu splash screen but did NOT change the BIOS setup  screen resolution...
[08:37] <Nrbelex> very odd
[08:38] <Fezzler> How do I get Desktop "Cube" effect to work in F Fawn?
[08:38] <vm_> fezzler, i just fixed that very problem
[08:38] <Nrbelex> Fezzler, Beryl or compiz
[08:38] <vm_> you got graphics drivers installed?
[08:38] <Fezzler> I have Desktop Effects set to Cube.
[08:38] <Fezzler> either
[08:38] <vm_> Fezzler: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/89786/+viewstatus
[08:39] <Ashex> I've setup a lamp server and I'm trying to setup Amarok to use a MySQL database
[08:39] <Nrbelex> ! beryl
[08:39] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:39] <vm_> just worked for me 2min ago lol
[08:39] <Ashex> I've got the database and user setup
[08:39] <Vektis> ahh, the volume control can be set to individual speakers on my 5.1. Very.. linuxy :)
[08:39] <Ashex> but when I go into amarok to setup the database, I keep getting a connection error
[08:39] <Fezzler> ctrl-alt-right flips Desktops/Apps but full screen, not in Cube
[08:39] <Ashex> anyone know why mysql is refusing the connection?
[08:39] <sef_> jsizzle: when I try to change the config, to manual, it tells me that the default Gateway address is invalid.  I'm on a 192.168.1/24 and am setting the gateway to <IP_ADDRESS>   What am I doing wrong?
[08:39] <vm_> Fezzler.....https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/89786/+viewstatus
[08:39] <Fezzler> Have Beryl installed
[08:40] <jsizzle> sef_: how are you changing the config? GUI or /etc/network/interfaces?
[08:40] <twisties> jsizzler: I can't see it in there. mind you im kind of lost looking at it anyway
[08:40] <vm_> fezzler: what graphics card you got?
[08:40] <Fezzler> vm - did that
[08:40] <ebuth> mwales, knetworkmanager doesn't seem to have the interface I'm looking for. I'm looking for a wireless monitor that shows signal strength a list of wireless networks when clicked upon. I've used OpenSuse recently and I must admit they have a really clean interface for that.
[08:40] <Nrbelex> !Beryl | Fezzler
[08:40] <ubotu> Fezzler: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:40] <sef_> jsizzle: gui, not 100% certain on the syntax for /etc/network/interfaces
[08:41] <vm_> hrm, well that is a fix for the desktop effects....not beryl so I dnt know
[08:41] <jsizzle> sef: man interfaces
[08:41] <Fezzler> vm: Just installed a nvidia GeoForce 5500
[08:41] <jsizzle> sef_: then change /etc/network/interfaces and do a sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[08:41] <jul> hey there
[08:41] <jul> can anyone help?
[08:41] <imrazor> Fezzler: did you install nvidia-glx?
[08:41] <ebuth> just ask :-)
[08:42] <jul> thank you
[08:42] <jsizzle> sef_: interfaces man page has an example of a static config, it's easy it'll take ya 2 secs
[08:42] <Fezzler> imrazor: yes
[08:42] <jul> I have a sound card, dmesg shows intel8x0 running cool, however it doesnt show on lspci
[08:42] <jul> and I have no sound at all
[08:42] <twisties> jsizzle: I can't see it in there. mind you im kind of lost looking at it anyway
[08:42] <jul> either at start up, during use of Feisty, or at log out
[08:43] <imrazor> Fezzler: what do you get if you do ALT-F2, type "glxgears" and hit run?
[08:43] <sef_> jsizzle: doing it now
[08:43] <Fezzler> I can flip apps, but it is full screen and not in a cube
[08:43] <theshadow> Ok, apparrently some how it decided to start using the sound card on my capture card... how can I change which device its loading as "default"
[08:43] <jul> now, I came here once before with that prob, it was solved, but I had to reinstall
[08:43] <Fezzler> Also, I noticed with Desktop Effects turned on I loose MAX/MIN/Close buttons and menus in Terminal
[08:43] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, Desktop effects is still officially just a "technology preview" If the gconftool fix doesn't work just remove compiz and install beryl
[08:44] <skinnypuppy1334> Could someone give me a hand? Feisty froze, and won't reboot. Recover in grub only drops me at" grub> " not to the terminal prompt... I'm booted into a live cd and have mounted the drive 7.04 is on ... what can I do to get that system back up ?
[08:44] <jsizzle> twisties: well then go to google.com/linux and search for your type of sound card, and figure out which module supports it that way
[08:44] <Fezzler> Beryl is installed
[08:44] <vm_> Fezzler: I had the same problem, so I removed beryl, and just used desktop effects and cube is working fine
[08:44] <mwales> ebuth,  knetworkmanager's icon when using wifi should turn into a signal strength meter
[08:45] <Fezzler> In Beryl manager I can choose from three windows managers
[08:45] <skinnypuppy1334> Could someone give me a hand getting feisty to boot again?
[08:45] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, Then Desktop effects wont effect it because desktop effects uses compiz, not beryl
[08:45] <Fezzler> vm never got cube working even w/o beryl
[08:45] <Fezzler> Jordan: ?
[08:46] <Jordan_U> !grub ( follow the reinstall grub after windows instructions and while in the chroot also run "update-grub" )
[08:46] <Nrbelex> So does anyone know a good channel to ask about BIOS issues?
[08:46] <Jordan_U> !grub | skinnypuppy1334 ( follow the reinstall grub after windows instructions and while in the chroot also run "update-grub" )
[08:46] <ubotu> skinnypuppy1334 ( follow the reinstall grub after windows instructions and while in the chroot also run "update-grub" ): grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:46] <vm_> yeah, neither could i fezzler, then i uninstalled beryl, and did that fix i linked you to and it worked
[08:46] <Fezzler> Should I uninstall Compiz? leaving just Beryl?
[08:46] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, Yes
[08:46] <jsizzle> feh: how you makin out with your NIC?? FYI I'm going to bed within the next 15-30, I sorta wanted to get u up and goin before I go sleepy-time
[08:47] <ebuth> mwales, strange... I've disabled my wired connection and knetworkmangar displays a cable still :-/
[08:47] <skinnypuppy1334> ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt/hda1$ !grub
[08:47] <skinnypuppy1334> bash: !grub: event not found

[08:47] <jsizzle> sef_:  how you makin out with your NIC?? FYI I'm going to bed within the next 15-30, I sorta wanted to get u up and goin before I go sleepy-time
[08:47] <skinnypuppy1334> I'm booted in live cd and mounted into dev/hda1 where feisty is...
[08:47] <sef_> jsizzle: ok I officially give up...  network configured manually... ifconfig shows it as up, tcpdump shows it as only a 10MB link (should be at least FE)
[08:47] <Jordan_U> skinnypuppy1334, !grub isn't a command, why are you trying to run it?
[08:48] <jul> hellop?
[08:48] <jsizzle> skinnypuppy1334: "!grub" isn't a valid command ! is built into bash and searches the history of commands for whatever string follows the !
[08:48] <jul> anyone can help?
[08:48] <littlebir> can someone point me to the link where it has directions on fixing grub after installing xp after a ubuntu install?
[08:48] <sef_> jsizzle: going to read the manual a bit more.. see if I can set the speed, see if that helps
[08:48] <jsizzle> sef_: but does it work? can you ping stuff?
[08:48] <Jordan_U> !grub > littlebir
[08:48] <chains> hi
[08:48] <chains> i want to know a method to use anything remote desktop like for feisty fawn that'll let me auto scale
[08:48] <littlebir> so..
[08:49] <littlebir> how do you do it
[08:49] <sef_> jsizzle: nope, ping reports Destination Host Unreachable, and tcpdump si showing nothing
[08:49] <littlebir> oh
[08:49] <Vektis> OK, another easy Q. Beryl doesn't work. Loading the manager just crashes - how can I diagnose this? Or is my X1900 ATI card not supported?
[08:49] <jsizzle> sef_: ok well that sounds like the problem is with the driver maybe then
[08:49] <Jordan_U> Vektis, Are you using fglrx?
[08:49] <Vektis> littlebir, wil find, one sec
[08:49] <jul> please can anyone at least reply, it's 3 am here in montreal, can you help me now or should I come back some other day?
[08:50] <vm_> Vektis: you will have more luck with compiz
[08:50] <jsizzle> sef_: have you looked through dmesg to see if there's any errors concerning the NIC?
[08:50] <littlebir> Vektis, found it
[08:50] <sef_> jsizzle: the really weird thing is that it works fine from the bootcd
[08:50] <littlebir> what's the root password for the live cd
[08:50] <vm_> Vektis: do you have Xgl set up?
[08:50] <Jordan_U> littlebir, There is none, use sudo
[08:50] <skinnypuppy1334> ok, after !grub I am at grub>   what do I do now?
[08:50] <chains> i want to know a method to use anything remote desktop like for feisty fawn that'll let me auto scale
[08:50] <chains> anyone have any suggestions?
[08:50] <Vektis> k
[08:51] <Fezzler> I don't see Compiz in Add/Remove app.  Did Fiesty install Compiz?  Did Beryl?
[08:51] <Vektis> Jordan_U: fglrx, yes
[08:51] <Vektis> vm: XGL? No idea
[08:51] <jsizzle> sef_: compare what modules get loaded on the boot cd versus your installed ubuntu and compare /etc/network/interfaces that might provide a clue
[08:51] <Vektis> What is XGL?
[08:51] <jsizzle> sef_: there must be some diff
[08:51] <skinnypuppy1334> what do I do at the grub prompt now?
[08:52] <Nrbelex> I just upgraded to Feisty from Edgy and now my USB wireless card needs to be replugged in everytime the computer is running to get it recognized. How can I fix this?
[08:52] <Jordan_U> Vektis, XGL is a hack to get Beryl / Compiz to work with fglrx
[08:52] <chains> does anyone have a clue as to what i'm asking??
[08:52] <sef_> jsizzle: yeah.. time to boot off the cd again, thanks for all your help
[08:52] <vm_> Vektis: if you are using an ATI card, then you need to install Xgl, so that your card can do some of the effects
[08:52] <vm_> ! Xgl
[08:52] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:52] <jsizzle> chains: I know what your asking, I just don't know of anything that does it, I use Vino and there's also x11vnc but neither scale AFAIK
[08:53] <sef_> jsizzle: actually.. one quick question.. on another box I have, eveything is ok..e xcept I can't get procmail to work.  I've added a .procmailrc, but nothing is gettign filtered.  Do I need to do anything more to it?
[08:53] <jsizzle> sef_: np, we could've probably figured it out but the bootcd might be quicker + easier
[08:53] <Jordan_U> Vektis, I would recommend trying the open source drivers first ( if they give 3D accel for your card ) instead of fglrx + XGl
[08:53] <chains> jsizzle: when i say scale i mean so it ajdusts according to the window size i set for the client
[08:53] <chains> so i won't have to scroll up/down and left/right
[08:53] <Vektis> XGL eh? how obvious! :)
[08:53] <jul> DOES ANYONE KNOW WHICH BLOODY SYSTEM FILE I HAVE TO EDIT TO GET UBUNTU TO START WITH INTEL8X0 ON SOUND??? PLEASE???
[08:53] <jsizzle> sef_: step 1. "ps aux | grep procmail" make sure it's running in the first place, then if it is check the log file search /var/log for it
[08:54] <Vektis> I'd rather use the ATI drivers Jordan, so I can get dual head with projector... eventually
[08:54] <Jordan_U> !caps | jul
[08:54] <ubotu> jul: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[08:54] <sef_> jsizzle: thanks very much... I'll let you get some sleep now :)
[08:54] <Jordan_U> !attitude | jul
[08:54] <jul> ok thx...3rd times harder on nerves at 3 am
[08:54] <ubotu> jul: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[08:54] <jsizzle> sef_: np thanks!
[08:54] <jacque1> hi everyone
[08:54] <jul> I know, I've already come
[08:54] <jul> bout a week ago
[08:55] <jul> with the same prob
[08:55] <jul> and I forgot to note the solution
[08:55] <Vektis> Xgl refers to setting it as a startup option. There's no way to 'try' it in the current session then?
[08:55] <Jordan_U> jul, You might find it in the logs
[08:55] <jsizzle> chains: check out x11vnc, it should do what you want then, I thought you wanted to have like a 1600x1200 native res then vncview it from a remote client and auto scale down to say 800x600 for smaller monitor
[08:55] <jul> the logs?
[08:55] <jul> dmesg and lspci?
[08:56] <Jordan_U> jul, No, the IRC logs from when you asked and got an answer before
[08:56] <mrwilloby> ok, I'm ready to upgrade to Feisty; what I want to do is install to another partition, fresh; also, I want to have /home on its own partition this time and I'd like to keep all my settings; what order should I do these things in?
[08:56] <jul> ok, it was this one #ubuntu, positive about that
[08:56] <jul> where do I get the logs?
[08:56] <mrwilloby> btw, thanks for everyone's input before, my internet connection is back
[08:57] <jul> (hum, do I even have access?)
[08:57] <jsizzle> mrwilloby: cool

[08:57] <sef_> jsizzle: this just isn't my morning, lol
[08:57] <chains> jsizzle: yah, same thing
[08:57] <jul> thk you
[08:58] <chains> i tried x11vnc but it does the same thing as the ubuntu remote desktop
[08:58] <jsizzle> sef_: well there's a fancy pants ubuntu way of doing it, but I just make a symlink in /etc/rc2.d/
[08:58] <Jordan_U> levon, If you stick to the repos then there is no chance of getting a trojan
[08:58] <ebuth> jul, does this help? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=375237&highlight=intel8x0+sound
[08:58] <sef_> jsizzle: symlinks work for me :)
[08:58] <xjkx> i need change $lang to iso8859-1 permantently
[08:58] <Vektis> k, I'll try it - thanks!
[08:58] <jsizzle> sef_: if you want the fancy pants way i could look it up for you.. it's something like update-rc.d someotherbullshit
[08:58] <Fezzler> ok, uninstalled Beryl.  Re-applied the following.  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/89786/+viewstatus
