[12:01] <LjL> mikeo2: never tried
[12:01] <ompaul> magicks, please stop changing your nick so off there are 1k others in here
[12:01] <mikeo2> http://rougebob.com/Running-a-Windows-Partition-in-VMware.htm thats what i did
[12:02] <floatingredwagon> LjL - That got me past it!   Thank you!
[12:02] <mikeo2> it works with my old xp partition, but only boots in vmware as root
[12:02] <tdela> If i have a nvidia 6800 video card, do i need to install the drivers in a new kernel?
[12:02] <LjL> mikeo2: make your user a member of the "disk" group
[12:02] <Asc> bertrand: Unless you explicitly told it to install GRUB on the windows partition, it shouldn't have....  Hopefully it's just a configuration problem.
[12:02] <Varanger> !iptraf
[12:02] <mikeo2> ok
[12:02] <tdela> trying to get beryl running here but it seems i dont have the video drivers.
[12:02] <ubotu> iptraf: Interactive Colorful IP LAN Monitor. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.0-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 161 kB, installed size 740 kB
[12:02] <bertrand_> so i'll try again. note i have read on some websites that you musn't install grub on a windows partition
[12:02] <godtvisken> In the ubuntu installation of postgresql, where are the database file stored?
[12:03] <mikeo2> LjL: how do i do that?
[12:03] <LjL> mikeo2: sudo adduser yourself disk
[12:03] <free> it ce ne sono
[12:04] <LjL> !it | free
[12:04] <ubotu> free: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[12:04] <Asc> bertrand_: I think it's more of a boot sector thing, so installing it on a partition could be bad.  I'm no expert on the topic though.
[12:04] <mikeo2> hmmm still can't boot it, oh well will just keep running it as root
[12:04] <LjL> mikeo2: close the terminal and open it again. or even restart X. it'll probably work
[12:04] <cyberyak> if I blacklist 2 of the modules that are dependencies of ubuntu-desktop, will it still allow me to install it?
[12:04] <mikeo2> ok will do
[12:05] <LjL> cyberyak: doubt it
[12:05] <cyberyak> so do I, which is why I am asking.
[12:05] <LjL> cyberyak: perhaps make an equivs package instead of blacklisting
[12:05] <LjL> ah *modules*? so not *packages*?
[12:06] <cyberyak> packages
[12:06] <cyberyak> my bad
[12:06] <Led-Hed> Can anyone point me to a Howto or explain how to extract the usplash boot image for editing
[12:06] <LjL> cyberyak, wait, blacklisting modules is a different thing from blacklisting packages
[12:06] <LjL> !blacklist
[12:06] <ubotu> 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"
[12:06] <LjL> is this what you did?
[12:06] <cyberyak> no, we're talking packages
[12:06] <cyberyak> I mistposke
[12:06] <LjL> ok then you could try an equivs
[12:06] <LjL> !equivs
[12:06] <cyberyak> and mistyped
[12:06] <ubotu> equivs: Circumvent Debian package dependencies. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.0.7 (edgy), package size 18 kB, installed size 128 kB
[12:06] <cyberyak> cool
[12:06] <cyberyak> thanks
[12:07] <LjL> cyberyak: make newer (fake) versions of those packages using equivs, instead of blacklisting them, and APT should be happy
[12:07] <kbrooks> Can I ask a question please?
[12:07] <LjL> cyberyak: "equivs-control" to set it up, and "equivs-build" to make the package
[12:07] <LjL> !ask
[12:07] <kbrooks> er, wrong channel
[12:07] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:07] <jinho> i-kido: http://pastebin.ca/339229
[12:07] <I-kido> jinho ok tnx
[12:07] <LjL> cyberyak: (with some parameters, check the manpages)
[12:08] <jinho> i-kido: sorry took so long paste-bin was acting up
[12:08] <I-kido> jinho no prob,  can u pm me?
[12:08] <exwhyzed> I installed madwifi through the pacakage manager, but my wireless card is still not recognized. can anyone help?
[12:08] <mike01> LjL: it booted in vmware as my user
[12:09] <xaos> hello.
[12:10] <quaal> in sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will it detect the correct drivers automatically
[12:10] <bertrand_> Asc: It don't work
[12:10] <quaal> for my geforce 6800 it goes to vesa
[12:11] <xaos> i'm using dapper, and i broke my software index. when i run apt-get install -f , it tells me i have to remove 821 mb worth of packages. is there a way to remove the packages i installed (edgy libc6 libs, and others) without removing my entire system? or should i let it remove all teh files and run update manager to upgrade to edgy?
[12:11] <gardar> What's the current version of NeroLinux?
[12:12] <juanchito2006> !kde
[12:12] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[12:13] <LjL> mike01: cool, note however that it means that now your user can do anything to the *entire* hard drive. drives, actually.
[12:13] <LjL> mike01: your user has basically become very close to root. so, ponder whether you might not just run vmware as root instead
[12:14] <LjL> mike01:  sudo deluser yourself disk  will restore the previous situation, if you need that
[12:15] <blackduck3> hi

[12:16] <Hansin321> mon^rch: Are you using the NTFS-3G driver?  Just curious.
[12:17] <Hansin321> Curious if Feisty will use them be default.
[12:17] <gabaryah> don't see Monitor & Display
[12:17] <jcvasquezt> i need help with my wireless connection....anyone please...i have a ipw2200 on a toshiba laptop
[12:17] <juano__> mon^rch: you can write with ntfs-3g

[12:17] <ubotu> jcvasquezt: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:17] <mon^rch> its just great
[12:17] <LjL> gabaryah: that would be weird. what are the icons under "System Administration" in System Settings?
[12:17] <LjL> "Computer Administration" that is
[12:18] <Asc__> bertrand_: got disconnected.  Try mounting the partition under Linux; if GRUB is on it, it should be damaged and not mount.  The command 'sudo mkdir /mnt/windows;sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows' ought to work.
[12:18] <jcvasquezt> i tryied that, but i get an error with sh remove-old

[12:20] <zcat[1] > is there any easy-to-use tool to control how much time my kids can have on the computer? I want to restrict them to an hour a day...

[12:20] <zcat[1] > looking through synaptic I can't find anything though...
[12:20] <particleman> arrgggh
[12:20] <Asc__> bertrand_: Okay.  What was the error message?
[12:20] <particleman> one minute my hard drive in a usb box is working fine

[12:22] <jcvasquezt> ...anyone, please, i've been trying to set up my wireless for a while, but i've been unable to make it work. i try already the documentation in ubuntu, but with the instructions they have there i always get an error when: sudo sh remove-old

[12:23] <LjL> Ubotu, tell superd about repos | superd, see the private message from Ubotu
[12:23] <zcat[1] > timeoutd looks perfect
[12:23] <enix> what file whould i edit to keep from mounting my windows partition in linux
[12:23] <particleman> what am I looking for?
[12:23] <reklipz> Hello everybody!
[12:23] <gabaryah> Checking for non power of two texture support   : failed
[12:23] <siikah> hi :)
[12:23] <gabaryah> what does this mean
[12:23] <deep> Hi reklipz (:
[12:24] <superdave888> sorry for disconnect, I had asked about changing apt-get install source to internet
[12:24] <deep> And hi, the rest. :)
[12:24] <reklipz> I recently switched from Windows XP to ubuntu on my laptop
[12:24] <eternaljoy> deep: hey hey
[12:24] <LjL> Ubotu, tell superdave888 about repositories | superdave888, see the private message from Ubotu
[12:24] <juano__> particleman: an entry for your USB device
[12:24] <superdave888> thx ljL
[12:24] <reklipz> Everything is running fine, except for one small glitch
[12:24] <eternaljoy> superdave888: :)
[12:24] <deep> reklipz, okay? (:
[12:24] <eternaljoy> will Ubuntu install OK on a notebook?
[12:24] <reklipz> ya, its on here just fine
[12:25] <eternaljoy> reklipz: what type?
[12:25] <reklipz> the only problem is i cant use the brightness / volume keys, it corrupts the display every time
[12:25] <juano__> particleman: you trying to mount a USB device ?
[12:25] <mike01> LjL: think ill just run vmware as root
[12:25] <gabaryah> when i start beryl from konsole i'm getting a message "Checking for non power of two texture support   : failed"
[12:25] <juano__> gabaryah: sudo beryl-manager
[12:25] <reklipz> there anyway to fix this?
[12:25] <Mosquiton> if i will install ubuntu on my laptop, will the actual OS (XP) be deleted will all the data and files ?
[12:26] <particleman> juano-yeah
[12:26] <reklipz> depends on how you install it mosquiton
[12:26] <particleman> it mounts, either through the gnome automounter or manually
[12:26] <zcat[1] > gabaryah: what card? I get that error with my TNT2 cards and it means the card is just too old to run beryl
[12:26] <LjL> Mosquiton: if you don't tell it to delete it, no. the installer gives you a choice
[12:26] <particleman> and I can read the files just fine
[12:26] <deep> gabaryah, have you checked the beryls website? (:
[12:26] <eternaljoy> reklipz: what type?
[12:26] <reklipz> what type of?
[12:26] <gabaryah> was working fine
[12:26] <reklipz> its a gateway 200ARC
[12:26] <particleman> but now it tells me everything is read only
[12:26] <eternaljoy> reklipz: you said ubuntu installed on your notebook
[12:26] <particleman> hmm
[12:26] <reklipz> with an intel 825/855 chipset
[12:27] <ublender> has anyone mastered the art of video encoding for the ps3 in ubuntu?
[12:27] <eternaljoy> reklipz: what type?
[12:27] <particleman> just ran fsck on it
[12:27] <NeoClon1> hi evrybody
[12:27] <reklipz> Its a gateway 200ARC
[12:27] <particleman> let's see if that helps
[12:27] <gabaryah> stopped working after sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[12:27] <reklipz> Intel Centrino 1.4GHz
[12:27] <eternaljoy> reklipz: you have alZeimers? LOL
[12:27] <eternaljoy> reklipz: u dual boot from ms windows?
[12:27] <NeoClon1> i need some help
[12:27] <reklipz> nope
[12:27] <LjL> gabaryah: that command modified your xorg.conf. including the parts of it that you (most likely) had manually modified to make Beryl work. you must re-add those.
[12:27] <reklipz> i was thinking about it though
[12:27] <particleman> argh
[12:27] <juano__> particleman: pastebin you /etc/fstab  and your /etc/mtab please
[12:27] <particleman> no luck
[12:28] <mon^rch> is there a tutorial on getting a highid from amule?
[12:28] <particleman> sure
[12:28] <deep> NeoClon1, just ask. :)
[12:28] <hdibani> hi everybody, does anybody know of a gnome equivalent to klibido? i would prefer using a GTK tool. thanks
[12:28] <zcat[1] > gabaryah: oh.. yeah, what ljl said :)
[12:28] <eternaljoy> can I install Ubuntu on a notebook and have it keep MS windows on it?
[12:28] <particleman> to the chan?
[12:28] <siikah> superdave888, depends on which country you're from. it's all in the /etc/apt/
[12:28] <juano__> no no
[12:28] <reklipz> eternaljoy, yes
[12:28] <Mosquiton> LjL: does it means that i'll have 2 os on my lptp and that i will be able to chose wich one to start any time i'll turn on the pc ?
[12:28] <gabaryah> so i have to reinstall beryl?
[12:28] <eternaljoy> juano__: why not?
[12:28] <bertrand__> error message : mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or other error. In some cases useful infos is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so

[12:28] <particleman> ah ok
[12:28] <LjL> Ubotu, tell Mosquiton about dualboot | Mosquiton, see the private message from Ubotu
[12:28] <LjL> Mosquiton: yes
[12:28] <Mosquiton> thanks
[12:28] <eternaljoy> reklipz: how can I install ubuntu and for it to keep ms windows and to create a dual boot menu?
[12:28] <NeoClon1> how can i change the sound codec of asa
[12:28] <NeoClon1> alsa*
[12:28] <juano__> eternaljoy: he should use pastebin not flood the channel
[12:28] <tsmithe> NeoClon1, how do you mean?
[12:28] <xaos> i'm using dapper, and i broke my software index. when i run apt-get install -f , it tells me i have to remove 821 mb worth of packages. is there a way to remove the packages i installed (edgy libc6 libs, and others) without removing my entire system? or should i let it remove all teh files and run update manager to upgrade to edgy?
[12:28] <gabaryah> so i have to reinstall beryl?
[12:28] <particleman> not a prob :)
[12:28] <eternaljoy> juano__: who?
[12:28] <hdibani> eternaljoy: sure you can, you need to create another parition for linux though
[12:29] <LjL> Ubotu, tell eternaljoy about dualboot | eternaljoy, see the private message from Ubotu
[12:29] <NeoClon1> now it's ALC883 et i would like to force ALC880
[12:29] <NeoClon1> i mean, the sound works
[12:29] <juano__> particleman:
[12:29] <NeoClon1> but partially
[12:29] <eternaljoy> hdibani: its already got a freee partition! now what?
[12:29] <zcat[1] > gabaryah: there will be a backup of your working xorg.conf, just copy it back and then manually edit what you ere trying to do with that reconfigure...
[12:29] <NeoClon1> not all the outputs are working
[12:29] <eternaljoy> LjL: ty, cheers
[12:29] <juano__> eternaljoy: <eternaljoy> juano__: why not?
[12:29] <reklipz> eternaljoy: I'm not 100% sure as to how to do it, but I know that it will use GRUB for the bootloading menu, and I believe there is an option when installing to do that
[12:29] <LjL> xaos: you have got Edgy's libc6 installed on a Dapper system? you might as well reinstall from scratch, i think.
[12:29] <NeoClon1> the headphone and speakers doesn't works
[12:29] <LjL> xaos: or just upgrade to Edgy if you feel like
[12:29] <xaos> ok
[12:29] <Mosquiton> mmm i've cheked the links... but i still have many questions
[12:30] <gyaresu> Anyone know of any movies/clips about "Why you should use Linux"?
[12:30] <particleman> juano- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4036/
[12:30] <LjL> Mosquiton: ask
[12:30] <xaos> i have amd64 so i want wireless function, edgys 64 kernel didnt work with wireless
[12:30] <hdibani> eternaljoy: ubuntu will automatically discover windows for you and create a boot menu. just make sure you install into the free partition
[12:30] <devilsadvocate> gyaresu, google for the beryl 3d window layering plugin video on youtube :D
[12:30] <unop> gyaresu,  are you that much of a skeptic?
[12:30] <reklipz> Can someone tell me if its possible to get my brightness / volume keys to work on my laptop? RIght now it just corrupts the screen whenever i press one
[12:30] <Asc__> bertrand_: Yeah, it sounds like the header's broken.  Linux should be able to mount FAT or NTFS without a problem.
[12:30] <gyaresu> devilsadvocate: No. More like a presentation...
[12:31] <Dimensions> if booting from usb hdd ... what should be my setting in grub.conf ? for initrd and kernel and is my root going to be hd0,1 or something else ?
[12:31] <xaos> in order to upgrade i have to uninstall that 800mb packages first...
[12:31] <LjL> gyaresu, try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:31] <zcat[1] > Nobody should run Linux. It's a terrible OS!!
[12:31] <bertrand__> ok, but i must leave now, i'm sorry
[12:31] <gyaresu> unop: I'm an advanced linux monkey. I'm looking for ways to convert :)
[12:31] <gluemonkey> zcat shutr it
[12:31] <xaos> i should be able to copy the list, and reinstall them later right?
[12:31] <zcat[1] > hehe...
[12:31] <gyaresu> LjL: :) sure.
[12:31] <LjL> Ubotu, tell xaos about cloning | xaos, see the private message from Ubotu
[12:31] <LjL> xaos: yes
[12:31] <devilsadvocate> xaos, back up your important data first
[12:31] <NeoClon1> is it possible in mp?
[12:31] <bertrand__> thanks a lot foryour help, is it something i must know before leaving ?
[12:31] <Asc__> bertrand__: Hope you don't loose anything too important.
[12:31] <particleman> juano-any ideas?
[12:31] <unop> gyaresu,  then you should know of enough reasons to "not use videos" in your evangelism :)
[12:31] <juano__> particleman: seems fine, can you rw now ?
[12:31] <particleman> hmm
[12:32] <jcvasquezt> hello everyone
[12:32] <eternaljoy> hdibani: ok

[12:32] <robouk> need help before i reinstall windows! im fairly new to linux. its yet another resolution problem, running ati radeon 9800. my xorg.conf shows the 9800 with all the nice resolutions but im stuck in 640x480, thanks for your help!
[12:33] <juano__> particleman: try sudo umount /dev/sdb4 and then sudo mount /dev/sdb4
[12:33] <reklipz> anyone?
[12:33] <Asc__> bertrand__: Not really.  I don't know of any free software that can fix it.  At least partial recovery of files should be possible, but that might require buying software for it.
[12:33] <zcat[1] > beryl's finally getting to the point where I can do useful stuff (videos and games) without it messing up all the time. Still a few bugs though...
[12:33] <gaminggeek> Hello
[12:33] <LjL> robouk: perhaps xorg.conf lists refresh rates that are not adequate for higher resolutions? try a  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  and see if you can set them to something better (ideally, look them up on your monitor's manual)
[12:33] <__mikem> LjL, you know that guy seveas got 2 days ago for bann evasion?
[12:33] <particleman> and...bugger all
[12:33] <particleman> nope
[12:33] <LjL> Ubotu, tell robouk about fixres | robouk, see the private message from Ubotu
[12:34] <unop> gyaresu,  what i meant was - it's easy to dress up (dress down) videos and presentations to make a point, they dont necessarily reflect the truth
[12:34] <thug> is there anyway to install noia icons for gnome ? if yes .. then how ?
[12:34] <hdibani> hi everybody, does anybody know of a gnome equivalent to klibido? i would prefer using a GTK tool. thanks
[12:34] <reklipz> Ubotu, tell reklipz about stuff
[12:34] <unop> hdibani,  what does klibido do?
[12:34] <juano__> particleman: mm, does the icon appear on desktop ?
[12:34] <VSpike> Apologies, because this is a bit OT but I'm sure someone can help. I have two drives, in Grub terms hd0 and hd1.  Kubuntu is installed on hd0.  If I want to install Windows in hd1, can I swap the boot order in the BIOS and then install XP on it, to avoid it stomping my MBR?  And then swap back in BIOS afterwards and let Grub boot it?
[12:34] <jcvasquezt> i have a dual system with winxp and ubuntu, i'm trying to move to ubuntu but not everything is working properly, i got the LAN to work, but the wireless...i've been trying it for a long time and i just couldnt. i have a toshiba laptop and a ipw2200 with a router using wpa2 security....anyone???
[12:35] <hdibani> unop: klibido is a binary news downloader
[12:35] <robouk> LjL: thanks! will do some reading on it, ill hang around incase i have trouble though
[12:35] <gyaresu> unop: Yes but it's all about the marketing. Lots of average people can't get their info through reading.
[12:35] <thug>  Drag and drop this theme into the theme manager to install   = the format its invalid
[12:35] <reklipz> I have an ipw2100, and it worked flawlessly
[12:35] <particleman> crap
[12:35] <thug> does anyone know how to install them ?
[12:35] <particleman> same problem
[12:35] <gyaresu> unop: anyway... I'm in #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to discuss ;)

[12:36] <gluemonkey> cool
[12:36] <eternaljoy> hdibani: do I need a separate hard drive to install Ubuntu?
[12:36] <unop> verma,  probably tcl8.0 -- you can search through available packages using aptitude search tcl
[12:36] <hdibani> unop: yes exactly
[12:36] <thug> ardchoille42 is says Drag and drop this theme into the theme manager to install  but doesnt work .. i get the format its invalid
[12:36] <zcat[1] > gluemonkey: click where it says "nnn users" and a list pops up.
[12:37] <gluemonkey> where??

[12:37] <ardchoille42> thug, That is an icon theme. Unpack it to ~/.icons for your user only, or unpack it to /usr/share/icons if you want all users on that box to use it.
[12:37] <juano__> particleman: sudo umount /dev/sdb4  then sudo mkdir /media/sdb4  then sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb4 /media/sdb4
[12:37] <unop> hdibani, well, whats wrong with something like evolution or thunderbird (if you want something new , experiment with - aptitude search news)
[12:37] <LjL> gluemonkey: anywhere. best in the status window if you have one.
[12:37] <thug> ardchoille42 ok thanks
[12:37] <verma> thanks LjL unop
[12:37] <quaal> is there a way for me to check that this is what ubuntu 6.10 is using for its nvidia support http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-9746.html
[12:37] <ardchoille42> thug, Yeah, the theme manager installer *tries* to install when you D&D, but the theme installer sucks out loud. It's better to unpack themes manually.
[12:38] <particleman> nope
[12:38] <particleman> still listed as owned by root
[12:38] <jcvasquezt> ?????i have problems with my wireless card...can anyone give some advice?
[12:38] <hdibani> eternaljoy: no you dont, you need different partitions that's all (c: d: in the windows word). you can now even run ubuntu inside the windows partition and start the installation from windows
[12:38] <thug> ardchoille42 but the ~/.icons its empty .. its that how it should be ?
[12:38] <ardchoille42> thug, It
[12:38] <particleman> juano-thanks for the help
[12:38] <ardchoille42> thug, Itll be empty until you put icons i there, yes that is normal
[12:38] <particleman> but my frustration level is starting to build :-p
[12:38] <LjL> quaal: lshw -class display
[12:38] <thug> ardchoille42 works ... thanks
[12:38] <juano__> particleman: lol sec
[12:38] <particleman> should I try rebooting again?
[12:39] <juano__> particleman: nah, one sec
[12:39] <particleman> alrighty
[12:39] <LjL> quaal: if you see you're using the "nvidia" driver, "apt-cache policy nvidia-glx" will tell you the version
[12:39] <eternaljoy> hdibani: how can I now run ubuntu inside the windows partition and start the installation from windows?
[12:39] <particleman> I've already tried powering down the hd and the comp
[12:39] <ardchoille42> thug, The system gets icons from /usr/share/icons. The user accounts can override the system icons if the user has icon themes in ~/.icons.  the same goes for /usr/share/themes and ~/.themes.
[12:39] <Mosquiton> LjL: if i give ubuntu  "10 GB" of my D: partition, will the others "windows" files be recognized when xp is running ?
[12:39] <hdibani> unop: i use pan when i want to read news, klibido automatically decodes binary attachement to a specified folder.
[12:39] <fnord123> anyone know of any network games like maelstrom for linux? I want to play subspace/continuum... :-/
[12:39] <particleman> and seriously...one minute it was working fine
[12:39] <particleman> then next reboot it wasn't
[12:39] <Music_Shuffle> fnord123, zomg! I want to too!
[12:40] <thug> ardchoille42 ok thanks a lot .
[12:40] <LjL> Mosquiton, you can't give Ubuntu *part* of a partition. it needs a partition *for itself*. however, if you don't have a spare partition, the installer is able to shrink Windows partitions to make some space
[12:40] <Music_Shuffle> lol
[12:40] <eternaljoy> hdibani: how can I now run ubuntu inside the windows partition and start the installation from windows?
[12:40] <fnord123> i installed maelstrom and it gave me a hankering for ye olde subspace
[12:40] <juano__> particleman: whats the gid set too ?
[12:40] <unop> hdibani,  i'm quite sure tbird has something to download binaries (an extension if not built-in)
[12:40] <juano__> particleman: in the mtab
[12:40] <LjL> Mosquiton: obviously, resizing partitions is a sensitive operation. you should not do it if, for instance, the power may go out during the process. you should have a backup of important files.

[12:41] <Mosquiton> i see..  i think i'll wait for a new pc.  and then use this one for some experiments
[12:41] <hdibani> unop:  the problem is that tbird does not read nzb files (xml files that contain the list of files to be downloaded)

[12:43] <gluemonkey> still cant find users list perhaps ill read some instruction or something hideous like that!!
[12:43] <particleman> just trying to provide marginally relevant information :-p

[12:44] <LjL> quaal, not sure about that, i think that's a module from the binary driver, but i can't say for sure
[12:44] <hdibani> eternaljoy: here is the link, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/install.exe/Prototype  this is still new, so make sure you read more before trying it, altough i have tested it and it works great, you install ubuntu inside windows, if you wanna remove it, you go to the add/delete windows on yor windows and remove ubuntu

[12:44] <quaal> i get from grep nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[12:44] <quaal> ok
[12:44] <juano__> particleman: what ID num ?

[12:45] <iulian_> anyone know why?
[12:45] <jcvasquezt> ....come one please, i'm new to ubuntu, and not having the wireless working is very annoying...i've tryed a lot of things and still, cant get it to work...
[12:45] <LjL> quaal: if you need 3D performance, yeah... no, for the resolution, that shouldn't be the problem. try  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg  instead
[12:45] <quaal> jcvasquezt,  can you get it to work in windows ?
[12:45] <thug> after i load new icons ... the mixer volume failed to start any idea ?

[12:47] <rly> hey
[12:47] <hdibani> eternaljoy: yes you need a small partition that is the same size as the ram you have on your machine for swap
[12:48] <particleman> just 3 dashes
[12:48] <hdibani> eternaljoy: you can create it from the installer
[12:48] <LjL> quaal: that'll let you select refresh rate. choose the "medium" option, and make an educated guess
[12:48] <rly> sometimes when I open an aplication it's all black

[12:49] <quaal> ok
[12:49] <eternaljoy> jcvasquezt: its not what happens that counts, its how you deal with it that matters :)
[12:49] <LjL> quaal: well, does xorg.conf also list the target resolution that you want?

[01:00] <tonyy> Triumph|TK: Could you clarify?
[01:00] <virtu> I-kido, virtu is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
[01:00] <thompa> audacity says unable to record i/o error
[01:00] <particleman> and...crap
[01:00] <Triumph|TK> im trying to make a group with access to 1 ftp directory
[01:00] <particleman> back to the same problem
[01:00] <particleman> it's like I can only write to the drive for so long before it turns into a read only drive
[01:00] <Ricket> How do I restart the samba service without rebooting?
[01:00] <particleman> hmm
[01:01] <tonyy> Triumph|TK: So what you want is to make a directory writable and readable and such by all members of a particular group, no?
[01:01] <Triumph|TK> yes tonyy
[01:01] <thompa> thanks
[01:01] <particleman> wonder if the drive just overheated, and needs some time to cool down a bit
[01:01] <particleman> or if the usb box is bad
[01:01] <ferret_0567> Where is MadWifi in Ubuntu 6.10? Inside the "linux-restricted-modules" package?
[01:02] <tonyy> Triumph|TK: sudo chown groupname:groupname /path/to/dir && sudo chmod g+rwx /path/to/dir
[01:02] <Triumph|TK> woah
[01:02] <ferret_0567> This is a repo to get the latest beta of Gaim

[01:03] <oddmanout> hi all
[01:03] <oddmanout> how do I adjut/turn off the touchpad controls in ubuntu for a latptop?
[01:03] <Triumph|TK> tonyy groupname:groupname ?
[01:04] <oljanx> anyone else have trouble receiving a channel list in XChat?
[01:04] <tonyy> Triumph|TK: Yeah, b/c the group is also a user generally
[01:04] <flubs> unop: are you still available to answer questions about cpan?
[01:04] <ferret_0567> I'm going to try that repo
[01:04] <Triumph|TK> i made the group using addgroup and when i typed that command it says unknown user
[01:04] <ferret_0567> Especially since this particular beta has some Google Talk features in it
[01:05] <ferret_0567> Hopefully, file transfer for Google Talk
[01:05] <thescoobster> there is no way whatsoever to get a printer that ubuntu does not to support to work?
[01:05] <LjL> oljanx: that's quite normal in every client. the list is too long and will flood you out of the network. try with wildcards - if you want a list of ubuntu channels, type /list *ubuntu*
[01:06] <thescoobster> none?
[01:06] <thescoobster> nothing?
[01:06] <particleman> argh
[01:06] <oljanx> LjL:  thanks, I'll give it a go
[01:06] <particleman> so any ideas?
[01:06] <particleman> I switched usb boxes
[01:06] <particleman> same effect
[01:06] <particleman> I'm thinking I may have to back everything up and reformat the drive
[01:06] <particleman> which will just be very annoying

[01:06] <flubs> Has anyone experience trouble installing XML::Parser from CPAN?
[01:06] <thug> is anyone here using listen for ipods ?
[01:07] <LjL> flubs: why don't you just install the package instead?
[01:07] <LjL> flubs: i mean the ubuntu package
[01:07] <flubs> LjL: ???
[01:07] <cchance> Does any one know of a GUI Dj Setup similar to SAM in windows? It needs to be able to encode, do statistics, and perform audio stuff.
[01:07] <flubs> LjL: can I get it through synaptic?
[01:08] <LjL> !info libxml-parser-perl | flubs
[01:08] <ubotu> flubs: libxml-parser-perl: Perl module for parsing XML files. In component main, is optional. Version 2.34-4 (edgy), package size 285 kB, installed size 708 kB
[01:08] <LjL> so yes
[01:08] <Triumph|TK> tonyy its not recognizing my group it keeps saying invalid user
[01:08] <flubs> Thanks all, I'll give libxml-parser-perl a try
[01:09] <tonyy> Triumph|TK: Did you create it?  Perhaps if it's only a group and not a user you'll need to set the user otherwise...
[01:09] <tonyy> Triumph|TK: Maybe ftp:groupname or sth
[01:09] <superdave888> hello anyone, when connecting via XDMCP to my ubuntu server, I see only a fuzzy grey screen in Cygwin
[01:09] <superdave888> any advice
[01:10] <Joe_CoT> hey, is there a way to figure out what driver i need for my touchpad? the Xorg.0.log says it's not synaptics
[01:10] <mister_roboto> tonyy: what's he trying to do, change the group of some file(s)?   is he using chgrp?

[01:16] <sovieticool> hi all
[01:16] <sovieticool> i have a problem :(
[01:16] <mister_roboto> does anyone know the current state of 64-bit ubuntu? i was googling around and there was no java or flash and many problems i was reading about, but it was all old stuff. i'm hoping things have changed a lot in the meantime
[01:16] <glue_> hi all does anyone know the command to start jack server???
[01:16] <Shadow_x> can anyone help me with ndiswrapper
[01:16] <Pelo> sovieticool,  how very nice for you
[01:16] <sovieticool> my mplayer give me a error when i try to open a movie
[01:17] <Enselic``> sovieticool: try to start from command line with the -xv flag
[01:17] <thescoobster> well then how do i install the cups server?
[01:17] <thescoobster> in kde?
[01:17] <sovieticool> it's say error selected video_out(-vo) device
[01:17] <robouk> !sound server
[01:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sound server - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:17] <Pelo> sovieticool,  I have the same problem, I am not bothered with it , I use totem or vlc instead
[01:17] <Enselic``> sovieticool: with -vo sv     i mean
[01:17] <Enselic``> sovieticool: -vo xv
[01:18] <Pelo> thescoobster,  use kde's pakcage manager, I forget it's name
[01:18] <thescoobster> i looked in it
[01:18] <sovieticool> i have ubuntu special edition 6.10
[01:18] <thescoobster> but i didn't see it
[01:18] <Flannel> mister_roboto: java is now available (since it's now open source). but still no flash (because adobe hasn't made a 64bit flash binary)
[01:18] <sovieticool> maybe that be the prob ?
[01:19] <quaal> hmm
[01:19] <Pelo> sovieticool,  I had the same problem in  6.06,  I think something else is interfering, it just stoped working for me one day
[01:19] <quaal> why is the mousewheel making the track go forward and reverse now in xmms
[01:19] <quaal> instead of adjust volume like its supposed to
[01:19] <Flannel> sovieticool: what on earth is the "Special Edition"?
[01:19] <sovieticool> :)
[01:19] <aoirthoir> i want special edition
[01:19] <mister_roboto> Flannel: any other things that are a real pain that you know of? driver issues with anything? software not ported? that sort of thing? are the repositories reasonably complete for 64 bit programs?
[01:19] <Pelo> Flannel,  it's a special one you only play 100$ for
[01:19] <sovieticool> is the next version of Christmas edition
[01:20] <thescoobster> i really really like ubuntu but to spend weeks and weeks on one thing is such a nightmare
[01:20] <Khaled> I'm having a little bit of trouble installing the latest inkscape from source.
[01:20] <ublender> special edition: LTS edition?
[01:20] <sovieticool> :)), Pelo
[01:20] <thescoobster> seriously
[01:20] <thescoobster> it makes me want to commit suicide
[01:20] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: i didnt have to spend weeks on it and I am using it in a business environment
[01:20] <Khaled> whenever I try and compile using the make command I get this back:make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.
[01:20] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: have you gone through the entire faq at ubuntuguide.org?
[01:20] <Flannel> sovieticool: you mean "Ultimate Edition"?  We don't support that (it uses Automatix).  And, you got ripped off, because everything available in that edition is available in every other ubuntu edition.
[01:20] <thescoobster> but just little things like getting my printer ot work
[01:20] <Pelo> thescoobster,  that' s just the learning curve,  you'll get the hang of it eventualy
[01:20] <Khaled> any ideas?
[01:20] <fransth> hi all
[01:20] <thescoobster> i really need this printer
[01:20] <thescoobster> the rest i got
[01:21] <thescoobster> i mean i know it good
[01:21] <fransth> anyone can help vga problem in my notebook
[01:21] <thescoobster> i've done everything with it
[01:21] <thescoobster> but the printer
[01:21] <Pelo> Khaled,  have you done ./configure first ?
[01:21] <mister_roboto> thescoobster: suicide? isn't going back to windows a little better than that?  :)
[01:21] <fransth> i use knoppix the VGA run well, but ubuntu
[01:21] <thescoobster> i have 2 printers and neither are working
[01:21] <thescoobster> there has to be something
[01:21] <sovieticool> http://news.softpedia.com/news/Ubuntu-Ultimate-Edition-45644.shtml
[01:21] <thescoobster> u can't tell me u install ubuntu
[01:21] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: if you cant get the printer you can always post online or call canonical for support...
[01:21] <thescoobster> u buy a new printer
[01:21] <Khaled> Pelo, yeah
[01:21] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: its working with all my printers except the label printer from UPS...
[01:21] <Khaled> but I've not done this from root, does that matter?
[01:22] <mister_roboto> thescoobster: what printers?
[01:22] <Pelo> Khaled, make doesn,T need root
[01:22] <sovieticool> yeah, Flannel that's is
[01:22] <Khaled> It shouldn't but I've never been able to make make actually work
[01:22] <thescoobster> samsung ml-2510
[01:22] <thescoobster> and lexmark x75
[01:22] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: in fact it recognized a printer that doze woudnt see
[01:22] <sovieticool> so that is not goof ?
[01:22] <sovieticool> good ?
[01:22] <thescoobster> it shows but when i print
[01:22] <Pelo> Khaled,  does the folder contain a  install.py  file or something ?
[01:22] <Khaled> I've checked that it's installed properly and it has
[01:22] <thescoobster> nothing
[01:22] <thescoobster> actually
[01:22] <thescoobster> in 6.06
[01:22] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: well lexmark deliberately tries to keep people from working with their printers
[01:22] <thescoobster> the light blinked
[01:22] <thescoobster> and the 2550 driver
[01:22] <thescoobster> it hummed
[01:22] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: they even sued a company that made replacement ink cartidges
[01:22] <thescoobster> made me excited
[01:23] <gluemonkey> hi room
[01:23] <thescoobster> which made me madder
[01:23] <Flannel> mister_roboto: Um.  I believe binary drivers are available.  I'm not certain though.  But, all OSS is available in 64bit, because... that's the nature of OSS.
[01:23] <aoirthoir> hi glue
[01:23] <thescoobster> that's why i bought the samsung
[01:23] <thescoobster> actually
[01:23] <thescoobster> i thought i bought the 2150
[01:23] <Khaled> pelo it's got an instal-sh file but not an install.py
[01:23] <thescoobster> which ubuntu supports
[01:23] <thescoobster> got me numbers switched
[01:23] <thescoobster> and i got it online so it's not like i can return it
[01:23] <SYS0110> hi all
[01:23] <Khaled> it's got a couple of makefiles: makefile.am, .in .mingw
[01:23] <mister_roboto> Flannel: it's the nature of OSS that stuff CAN be recompiled, just wondering if it HAS been   :)
[01:23] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: you can return it even if you got it online
[01:23] <Pelo> Khaled,  the proceedure is a bit different then,  read the install file and the readme files
[01:24] <thescoobster> is that worth it though?
[01:24] <Pelo> and Khaled   this might be usefull to you in the future  http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[01:24] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: in any case you can try the closest drivers..and you can also email or call samsung and tell them you want gnu/linux drivers for it..that will pressure them
[01:24] <SYS0110> i wanna use multi language on gnome(i mean switch between 2 languages)
[01:24] <lufis> Hey guys. Tried to install feisty via dist-upgrade but got a fatal error when installing the packages. How do I restart the process?
[01:24] <thescoobster> i mean i will have to pay shipping trade for anther model
[01:24] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: in the future definitely make sure its the same printer as you wanted
[01:24] <thescoobster> so then i thought well hmm
[01:24] <thescoobster> what if i hook it to the laptop
[01:24] <thescoobster> and use a cups server
[01:24] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: that depends...did you order the incorrect model or did they send you the incorrect model?
[01:24] <SYS0110> i wanna use multi language on gnome(i mean switch between 2 languages)
[01:24] <SYS0110> i wanna use multi language on gnome(i mean switch between 2 languages)
[01:25] <thescoobster> it was my bad
[01:25] <thescoobster> i was so excited about the price
[01:25] <Shadow_x> can anyone help me with my e1705
[01:25] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: doesnt matter if you use cups..it still has to have the correct print driver
[01:25] <thescoobster> i didn't look real hard
[01:25] <thescoobster> i saw the numbers 2150
[01:25] <Pelo> SYS0110,  look it up in the forum
[01:25] <thescoobster> and in my mind i saw 2510
[01:25] <thescoobster> but it says linux support
[01:25] <thescoobster> so i can't see why it's a prob
[01:25] <sovieticool> Flannel, what is that sovieticool: you mean "Ultimate Edition"?  We don't support that (it uses Automatix).  And, you got ripped off
[01:25] <thescoobster> i'm thinking maybe i have to fiddle and tweak
[01:25] <Pelo> thescoobster,  check the maker's site then
[01:25] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: what says linux support? the website?
[01:25] <sovieticool> i am ripped ?
[01:26] <thescoobster> i have the drivers on the cd
[01:26] <sovieticool> my password are stolen or what ?
[01:26] <thescoobster> but the unified linux driver install gui
[01:26] <thescoobster> won't run
[01:26] <thescoobster> so i dl it
[01:26] <thescoobster> and that runs
[01:26] <aoirthoir> sovieticool: he means there is no "ultimate" edition of ubuntu
[01:26] <thescoobster> but it sticks at 95%
[01:26] <thescoobster> if i'm lucky
[01:26] <thescoobster> 97%

[01:26] <aoirthoir> sovieticool: that is part of the promise of ubuntu.....
[01:26] <Flannel> sovieticool: What about it?  It uses Automatix.  We don't support Automatix (as it's the best way to break a perfectly good installation).
[01:27] <Shadow_x> hmmm
[01:27] <khaije1> is there anyway to tell if my X server and kdm are working properly via remote ssh?
[01:27] <sovieticool> hmm that's why i have a lot of error
[01:27] <fnord123> !mesa
[01:27] <sovieticool> :((
[01:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mesa - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:27] <Shadow_x> can anyone help with a broadcom wireless card and nidwrapper?
[01:27] <thescoobster> sometimes the helps aren't very helpful
[01:27] <sovieticool> i need a good version where to download it ?
[01:27] <Pelo> sovieticool,   that ultimate edition is just a special make with certain packages that install automaticaly,  nothing you can't get free from the net or from the regular channels,  you only got taken if you paid for it
[01:27] <thescoobster> one prob i had was after i installed xubuntu
[01:27] <aoirthoir> sovieticool: the difference between ultimate editions..home editions and so on..is not new features or better..it is deliberately crippled features..ubuntu wont do that
[01:27] <fnord123> when i run glxgears, it flickers hella bad
[01:27] <SYS0110> what forum
[01:27] <SYS0110> cant u tell me?
[01:27] <thescoobster> my screen res was 600x680@60
[01:27] <fnord123> however, compiz works a treat
[01:27] <thescoobster> and nothing else
[01:27] <thescoobster> nowhere did anyone say
[01:28] <Pelo> SYS0110,   the forum for ubuntu
[01:28] <thescoobster> go to system setup
[01:28] <thescoobster> and select ur monitor model
[01:28] <glimmung> can anyone tell me what do I do with an "apt source"?
[01:28] <thescoobster> simple as that
[01:28] <thescoobster> they all said yadda yadda xorg.config
[01:28] <Pelo> thescoobster,    enter key is not punctuation,  stop the vertical spaming please
[01:28] <Flannel> sovieticool: you're best off getting Regular Ubuntu (The "Ultimate Edition" thing is not an official project, and probably violates IP using the Ubuntu name, but anyway) and installing everything you want
[01:28] <thescoobster> ?
[01:29] <fnord123> its worth knowing your way around xorg.conf in case a driver prevents X from loading.
[01:29] <SYS0110> thesccobster
[01:29] <SYS0110> do u use live cd?
[01:29] <jrib> glimmung: what do you mean exactly by that?
[01:29] <thescoobster> for my printer?
[01:29] <flubs> does anyone have experience installing Avant window manager?
[01:29] <Shadow__x> hello everyone
[01:29] <SYS0110> u said ur resolution was 800*600
[01:29] <thescoobster> am i typing to fast?
[01:29] <Pelo> flubs,  there is an ubuntu package for it
[01:30] <sovieticool_> yeah this is good he have a lot of stuff
[01:30] <thescoobster> it wasn't at first then when i rebooted
[01:30] <thescoobster> it was
[01:30] <sovieticool_> i will get a new version !!!

[01:30] <flubs> pelo: I checked synaptic for it...what's it called?
[01:30] <Shadow__x> can anyone help me with ndiswrapper and a broadcom card
[01:30] <thescoobster> and i couldn't change it so then i went and just configed my monitor and changed it from generic to ibm g70
[01:30] <thescoobster> and rebooted and my res was just fine
[01:30] <glimmung> jrib: I dont know what the instructions on this page are telling me to do with the "apt source" http://kubuntu.org/announcements/amarok-1.4.4.php
[01:30] <SYS0110> ok
[01:30] <Pelo> flubs,  sorry I meant a deb pakcage,  not in synaptic,  let me lookup the link for you
[01:31] <Pelo> flubs,  it's not great
[01:31] <jrib> glimmung: it's a line for /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:31] <aoirthoir> all it is is ubuntu with additional preinstalled software....which you can get for free from the repositories

[01:31] <tenco> hi
[01:31] <thescoobster> u know i installed ubuntu so many times i think the needle in my cdrom messed the cd up so i found a 6.06 alternative version
[01:31] <tenco> how's the developer channel named?
[01:31] <flubs> pelo: haha, it's not so good?
[01:31] <thescoobster> and then upgraded to 6.10 it took 4 hours
[01:31] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: first go with 6.10
[01:32] <aoirthoir> thats one
[01:32] <jrib> tenco: #ubuntu-devel
[01:32] <SYS0110> i wanna use multi language on gnome(i mean switch between 2 languages)

[01:32] <aoirthoir> finally call canonical..they have great support and you can get cheap per incident support by phone
[01:32] <superdave888> does anyone know how to get glibc libraries?
[01:32] <Pelo> flubs,  it needs work,  there realy isn'T a good reason for the "active window" 's icon to disapear from the bar as far as I am conserned
[01:33] <Pelo> flubs,  http://blog.paulbetts.org/index.php/2007/02/01/avant-window-navigator-for-ubuntu-edgy/
[01:33] <thescoobster> or i could call samsung and get it for free
[01:33] <Shadow__x> ndiswrapper anyone?
[01:33] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: you could try samsung...if the printer claims linux compatible then it is
[01:33] <thug> ls Lokkit a good firewall ?
[01:33] <sovieticool_> someone kill that sovieticool guy without _
[01:33] <thescoobster> the directions came in only french
[01:33] <FantasticFoo> anyone here have the GNANT icon theme? i can't find it for download anywhere. if someone has it can they send it to me?
[01:34] <aoirthoir> thescoobster: if i only got directions in french i would call the website i bought it from
[01:34] <thescoobster> well the setup directions but there where pics
[01:34] <flubs> pelo: Do you have another recommendation for an object-dock?
[01:34] <thescoobster> the rest is english but i just saw something looks like 2570 is the same
[01:35] <sovieticool_> clear
[01:35] <Pelo> flubs, avant isn'T an object dock,  it's an active windows display, like you get in the bottom panel in ubuntu,  it's not a launcher,  if you want one fo those try in gdesklets or in adesklets
[01:36] <reklipz> Hey everyone, I need to find a way to transfer 4GB of music from my windows desktop to my ubuntu install on my laptop. Ive got a crossover cable running between the two, what do i do now?
[01:36] <thug> what would you guys suggest me  to use for a gui firewall ?
[01:36] <flubs> pelo: Bleh, the active window display is what I meant
[01:36] <Pelo> flubs,  that's pretty much it
[01:37] <ufa> rekpliz>> share the folder in windows
[01:37] <reklipz> ufa: k, done
[01:37] <xtknight> why is X corrupting its gamma tables after the screensaver exits?  i get mangled colors (but not gamma=1.00) after the screensaver exits
[01:37] <Pelo> flubs,  give it a try anyway,  I'm not much on candy so I am not a good sounding board
[01:37] <ufa> access the shared folder in ubuntu
[01:38] <reklipz> do i need to setup an IP for ubuntu? I set my desktop's ip to <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:38] <ufa> maybe no

[01:38] <devilsadvocate> sovieticool_ try using the nickserv ghost command
[01:39] <ufa> :)

[01:39] <ufa> i have a good ATi
[01:39] <superdave888> xtknight: when I try to install NX client it says a dependency is not met for libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2
[01:39] <xtknight> ghatak: there's a dot instead of a "," after "rw" and before "users".  other than that, probably.
[01:39] <reklipz> thats really cool, but why didnt I need to setup the ethernet card on ubuntu?
[01:39] <ufa> radeon 9200, very good performance
[01:39] <sovieticool_> thank's devilsadvocate but i will try
[01:39] <loca|host> i've added a second NIC interface to my DELL Optiplex server, and now eth0 is set on the new inserted NIC, and i have conflicts with the first NIC that has worked before adding a new interface : http://pastebin.ca/339342
[01:39] <Pelo> omg there is an ubuntu satanic edition
[01:39] <xtknight> lol
[01:39] <ufa> its better than my geforce mx 440
[01:40] <LjL> reklipz: because your internet service has DHCP i suppose
[01:40] <reklipz> but i just ran a crossover between the two putes
[01:40] <xtknight> superdave888: what is nx client ? where did you obtain it?
[01:40] <ufa> ubuntu may got assigned a automatic ip
[01:40] <reklipz> maybe they're both on the same wireless network...
[01:40] <LjL> reklipz: hmm... then it did it by magic :P
[01:40] <reklipz> lets see what happens when i unplug the magical crossover...
[01:40] <LjL> reklipz: possibly (though wireless working out of the box is a rare occurrence of its own ;)
[01:41] <superdave888> xtknight: from nomachine.com
[01:41] <reklipz> LJL, it did for me
[01:41] <reklipz> LjL i used it to download packages during a minimal install
[01:41] <ufa> i need help in apt! :(
[01:41] <xtknight> superdave888: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[01:41] <reklipz> whatsamatta, ufa?
[01:41] <LjL> reklipz: "minimal install" you mean from the minimal CD?
[01:41] <reklipz> yes
[01:42] <gaminggeek> For some reason I can't turn on my swap :/
[01:42] <ufa> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=352766
[01:42] <Spee_Der> ufa, what's up ?
[01:42] <LjL> reklipz: that's interesting to know, i was asked about that yesterday, and i believed the minimal CD didn't have wireless drivers
[01:42] <reklipz> LjL, it isbecause of the wireless network, its not using the crossover
[01:42] <superdave888> xtknight: ubuntu 6.10, I found the package on debian.org just now, installed it, and it removed the dependency. I think my problem is solved. thanks
[01:42] <ufa> i am having a hard time
[01:42] <reklipz> It does, I was amazed also
[01:42] <LjL> reklipz: well, i based my assumption on the fact that 8Mb seemed a bit too little
[01:42] <xtknight> superdave888: installing debian packages on ubuntu is not a good idea, especially if they were from the sid or experimental branches
[01:43] <reklipz> LjL, as did I =)
[01:43] <Spee_Der> Ok, I will go look. I think reklip is also trying to help.
[01:43] <reklipz> Even windows XP doesnt come with the drivers for the wireless card

[01:43] <mike01> canon sucks
[01:43] <superdave888> xtknight: should I use the tarball version of programs instead of the DEB version then?
[01:43] <xtknight> superdave888: don't worry  it's not that bad, but we should go about it another way.  you may have fixed the installer's detection but you may run into further problems
[01:43] <mike01> stupid ip3000
[01:43] <xtknight> superdave888: just uninstall the deb you downloaded
[01:43] <Zambezi> superdave888, You probably solved one problem, but got a few others. Run sudo apt-get uprade and see.
[01:43] <reklipz> Spee_Der: Yes, I'll try to help, as son as I start copying over these files

[02:01] <darrenTehNewb> i JUST installed ubuntu for the first time. wee!
[02:01] <Moxxon> What about Firefox?
[02:01] <SYS0110> but yahoo and msn are on text only :(
[02:01] <SYS0110> ya
[02:01] <Moxxon> Whats text only mean?
[02:01] <reklipz__> OK, I've enabled the sharing on a folder on my windows XP machine, and I want to get its contents to my ubuntu machine. Whenever I try to open the machine, it tries to sign in as guest@desmas-d, but I want to sign in as a different user, what shud i do?
[02:01] <xtknight> barry_: but did you get it from the ubuntu repositories or off the web?
[02:01] <SYS0110> the default browser is firefox
[02:01] <SYS0110> no voice or cams
[02:01] <SYS0110> but in skype
[02:01] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> darrenTehNewb ,nice to hear that... how was the exerience?
[02:02] <SYS0110> u can use voice and cam
[02:02] <Moxxon> Is there a word combatible program?
[02:02] <SYS0110> ya
[02:02] <Flannel> Moxxon: OpenOffice Writer
[02:02] <Moxxon> Sweet
[02:02] <SYS0110> openoddice
[02:02] <SYS0110> lol
[02:02] <SYS0110> office*
[02:02] <Moxxon> What about like Excel?
[02:02] <Flannel> SYS0110: that's because the protocols aren't open.  Ekiga supports a bunch of standards for voice and video though.
[02:02] <SYS0110> ya
[02:02] <jrib> Moxxon: OO cac
[02:02] <darrenTehNewb> GreyGhost-Ubuntu: it was a bit rough to be honest. this laptop dvd drive is very particular and i had some trouble getting the cd to boot and to read at a decent pace. but its in now so im going to see what i can do with it
[02:02] <Flannel> Moxxon: open office... er, I dont remember what.  But yes.
[02:02] <xtknight> barry_: programs that aren't in the repositories sometimes have dependency problems.  you can't install UFO:AI on Ubuntu Edgy without screwing with its internals a bit, which isn't too hard
[02:02] <jrib> Moxxon: calc*
[02:02] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> Moxxon ,excel has OO spread sheet
[02:02] <darrenTehNewb> ill probably read the help thing. i have to learn all these wacky directories.
[02:03] <SYS0110> so ppl
[02:03] <darrenTehNewb> but i wanted to make sure i had easy access to the chat room just in case i had a quick question.
[02:03] <SYS0110> how can i make file
[02:03] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> darrenTehNewb ,ok
[02:03] <SYS0110> i wanna install wine
[02:03] <jrib> SYS0110: touch file
[02:03] <Flannel> !wine | SYS0110
[02:03] <ubotu> SYS0110: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[02:03] <Moxxon> Is there a burning program?
[02:03] <xtknight> i think he means make a Makefile
[02:03] <SYS0110> i know
[02:03] <Flannel> !burn | Moxxon

[02:04] <xtknight> !thanks | Moxxon
[02:04] <Moxxon> So is there any reason to buy Vista?
[02:04] <ubotu> Moxxon: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)

[02:05] <thescoobster> 2010 driver
[02:05] <thescoobster> whoop
[02:05] <mindstate> Ferret, i got the mini to work :)
[02:05] <xtknight> you might have to fart in the general direction of #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:05] <ferret_0567> How?
[02:05] <mindstate> Ferret, the ov511 driver
[02:05] <ferret_0567> I used a driver for my EyeToy which did JPEG decompression inside the kernel. Very bad stuff!
[02:06] <__mikem> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0w2ozB8fM1o&NR <-- Wow
[02:06] <xtknight> ferret_0567: what do you mean jpeg compression inside the kernel?
[02:06] <mindstate> Ferret, i was going to ask the samething
[02:06] <ferret_0567> Decompression
[02:06] <__mikem> oh crap
[02:06] <__mikem> sorry I thought I was in offtopic
[02:06] <ferret_0567> Takes the JPEG image from the camera and then decompresses it
[02:07] <xtknight> ahhh
[02:07] <xtknight> well, bad thing?  how do you conclude tat?
[02:07] <SYS0110> guys
[02:07] <SYS0110> how can i install makefile?
[02:07] <mindstate> make install
[02:07] <xtknight> !compile | SYS0110
[02:07] <ubotu> SYS0110: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[02:08] <Flannel> SYS0110: Why are you compiling wine?
[02:08] <L0cKd0wN> hey guys, my ubuntu is looking really weird, the icons and windows are like ghosted or something, there's an imprint to the right, like the display is offset
[02:09] <xtknight> L0cKd0wN: crt or lcd?  sure it's not a monitor problem?
[02:09] <L0cKd0wN> lcd
[02:09] <xtknight> L0cKd0wN: is it hooked up via DVI?
[02:09] <L0cKd0wN> analog
[02:09] <SYS0110> i wanna install it
[02:09] <ferret_0567> Gosh, it's JPEG, a image file format. Sometimes GThumb crashes, or another image viewer, whether viewing JPEG files or not. Do you want the whole computer to completely crash when the JPEG decompresser crashes
[02:09] <xtknight> L0cKd0wN: press the auto-adjust button on your lcd
[02:09] <loca|host> any one can suggest me a good iptable GUI based firewall ? am trying to reconfigure my network on iptables but i think that it would be simpler to get a simple GUI for it
[02:09] <Flannel> SYS0110: whats wrong with the ones in the repositories?
[02:09] <L0cKd0wN> hmm ok one sec
[02:09] <SYS0110> i downloaded it as .tar.bz2
[02:09] <Flannel> !firestarter | loca|host
[02:09] <ubotu> loca|host: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[02:09] <SYS0110> what is repositories
[02:09] <ferret_0567> err..when the JPEG Decompresser goofs

[02:11] <biza> !loggingdaemon
[02:11] <xtknight> ferret_0567: i guess my question is: how did you conclude that this was going on within the kernel.  you've experienced crashes first hand from this?
[02:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about loggingdaemon - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:11] <SYS0110> ok
[02:11] <SYS0110> ty flannel
[02:11] <ferret_0567> My system froze once while using the driver
[02:11] <L0cKd0wN> should i try rebooting maybe?
[02:11] <L0cKd0wN> i've never seen this happen b4
[02:11] <ferret_0567> Not sure if it was the driver or something else]
[02:11] <Triumph|TK> can anybody answer :(
[02:11] <xtknight> ferret_0567: is this a driver in the official kernel tree?
[02:11] <ferret_0567> no
[02:12] <xtknight> ferret_0567: what's the name of it?
[02:12] <ferret_0567> I haven't used it for a long time
[02:12] <Moxxon> Is ther a torrent client and can I watch AVIS on the computer?
[02:12] <ferret_0567> Not sure what it's called
[02:12] <ferret_0567> Just a sec...I'll Googleq "Eyetoy in Linux"
[02:12] <Triumph|TK> how do i give a user access to ftp but not ssh or anything else?
[02:12] <ConstyXIV> Is there any way to set up GNOME to use winkey+click for right-clicking, like on MacOS?

[02:13] <L0cKd0wN> well i guess a reboot can't hurt....
[02:13] <wimpies> anybody suggestsion for a good firewall debugger ?
[02:13] <rbil> Triumph|TK: do u have a hardware router?
[02:13] <xtknight> i was going to say that if it was in the official kernel tree then it was rigorously tested to get in there, and they wouldn't do stupid things.  but then again this one is not in the kernel tree so i'm not sure what they did
[02:13] <ConstyXIV> wimpies: find your neighborhood script kiddie :)
[02:14] <ferret_0567> I think it has been superseded by other projects
[02:14] <Triumph|TK> yes
[02:14] <rbil> Triumph|TK: then close all ports but the one for ftp
[02:14] <wimpies> reading the script is not the problem .. trying to track packages through a large script is
[02:14] <Triumph|TK> thats a good idea but theres no command to restrict certain users from ssh?
[02:15] <whileiwasgone> question whats differentiates Ubuntu from Fedora for the most part is it really just the software distrobution system?
[02:15] <AnythingJ> What is the difference between kernel headers and kernel source? do I have to patch the source?  I am trying to add suspend 2 support and it looks like I only have linux headers and no source, is that usual?
[02:15] <Flannel> !kernel | AnythingJ
[02:15] <ubotu> AnythingJ: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[02:15] <quaal> that was odd
[02:15] <quaal> is this the best fstab line to use for mounting a ntfs drive /dev/hda1 /mnt/win ntfs nls=iso8859-1,ro,umask=0 0 0
[02:16] <ConstyXIV> AnythingJ: You need to install the full source

[02:16] <quants> I see nothing to compare to WMP?
[02:17] <AnythingJ> okay, thanks ConstyXIV
[02:17] <Moniker42> sean@sean-desktop:~$ sudo ./doom3-linux-<IP_ADDRESS>4.x86.run

[02:17] <LjL> Ubotu, tell quants about mplayer | quants, see the private message from Ubotu
[02:17] <ConstyXIV> quants: rythymbox + banshee
[02:17] <xtknight> whileiwasgone: philosophy between the two distributions is different.  also they may not have the packages set up the same way (xorg.conf is in a different path for example).  one might have more GUIs than the other for specific operations.  the boot process for them is not the same and they may use different versions of packages and kernels
[02:17] <quaal> quants: VLC Media player
[02:17] <quaal> quants, far superior to WMP
[02:17] <Moniker42> sean@sean-desktop:~$ ./doom3-linux-<IP_ADDRESS>4.x86.run
[02:17] <Moniker42> bash: ./doom3-linux-<IP_ADDRESS>4.x86.run: Permission denied
[02:17] <Moniker42> (sorry wrong paste there)
[02:17] <mindstate> quaal, i agree
[02:17] <ConstyXIV> quants: rythymbox + totem, i mean
[02:17] <ferret_0567> Totem-Xine is a good one too
[02:17] <LjL> Moniker42: chmod +x doom3-linux*
[02:17] <xtknight> Moniker42: type sh ./doom3.....run
[02:17] <ferret_0567> Lot's of choices here
[02:17] <ConstyXIV> that's what's installed by default
[02:17] <ConstyXIV> i use banshee and vlc
[02:18] <quants> these are not in the package manager

[02:18] <ConstyXIV> !universe | quants
[02:18] <ubotu> quants: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[02:18] <LjL> quants: which? vlc, mplayer, rythmbox, totem all are
[02:18] <LjL> quants: ah yeah, of course, if you don't enable them they aren't
[02:18] <ConstyXIV> quants: you need to enable the universe repository
[02:18] <rbil> Triumph|TK: http://www.trustix.org/wiki/index.php/Restrict_SSH_per_user
[02:18] <xtknight> will feisty have universe enabled by default maybe?
[02:18] <ConstyXIV> mooniker: dont
[02:19] <mooniker> dont?
[02:19] <LjL> xtknight: don't think so. but it should be easier to enable, probably
[02:19] <quants> so default install, then activate universe?
[02:19] <Flannel> xtknight: not likely
[02:19] <ConstyXIV> mooniker: as in you cant
[02:19] <LjL> quants: yes
[02:19] <LjL> quants: and multiverse
[02:19] <shoumik> heloo?
[02:19] <omgsunny> excuse me. but what file manager is this person using? http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/7228/444301fj9.jpg i know he is using murrine and a vista theme and rhythmbox, but what file manager?  if it's nautilus mine lools totally different
[02:19] <ferret_0567> One EyeToy driver: http://www.ovcam.org/ov511/   Another: http://eyetoy.co.nr/
[02:19] <mooniker> What about xubuntu? Do I have to download specific ISOs?
[02:19] <LjL> Ubotu, tell mooniker about xubuntu | mooniker, see the private message from Ubotu
[02:19] <ConstyXIV> mooniker: the desktop disc more or less dumps an image of the livecd on to your hard drive
[02:19] <xtknight> omgsunny: looks like nautilus to me
[02:20] <shoumik> it is
[02:20] <ConstyXIV> mooniker: to install one to start, yes
[02:20] <xtknight> omgsunny: he is using a drastically different theme Engine.
[02:20] <whileiwasgone> is fiesty out and stable yet
[02:20] <mindstate> omgsunny, that almost looks freespireish
[02:20] <mooniker> Oh, then that's my problem. My computer can't handle the live.
[02:20] <ConstyXIV> mooniker: but you can install the rest later
[02:20] <LjL> whileiwasgone: no, and no
[02:20] <shoumik> umm i need some help
[02:20] <shoumik> my mouse is lagging
[02:20] <omgsunny> xtknight, how can i get my nautilus to look like that
[02:20] <LjL> Ubotu, tell whileiwasgone about feisty | whileiwasgone, see the private message from Ubotu
[02:20] <xtknight> whileiwasgone: there are only testing versions of feisty
[02:20] <ConstyXIV> mooniker: you need the alt cd
[02:20] <LjL> or the minimal
[02:20] <LjL> !minimal
[02:20] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[02:20] <quants> if this is to be useful for migraters, a media package needs to be installed by default
[02:21] <omgsunny> xtknight, not the icons or the style, mine just looks sorry, i will show you a screen shot
[02:21] <xtknight> omgsunny: use his theme engine and his metacity theme
[02:21] <Noxilenticus> Ubuntu sees my wireless card in the Device Manager but when I do a ifconfig -a, nothing other than lo and sit0 show up, is this a driver problem then?
[02:21] <LjL> quants: it is.
[02:21] <xtknight> omgsunny: ok
[02:21] <ConstyXIV> quants: totem and rthymbox come default
[02:21] <quants> VLC?
[02:21] <quants> mplayer?
[02:21] <LjL> quants: there's Rhythmbox  for music and Totem for video
[02:21] <quants> no in dapper it's not
[02:21] <Noxilenticus> mplayer is my fav
[02:21] <LjL> quants: they just don't support patented formats by default. yes in dapper too
[02:21] <Noxilenticus> it plays anything
[02:21] <xtknight> Noxilenticus: might need to do sudo ifconfig eth0 up   or something
[02:21] <mooniker> Well, that answers my question. Thanks, ConstyXIV.
[02:21] <whileiwasgone> I have a machine that I have Ubuntu Edgy eft and want to installl it but the upgrades are like 300 megs to download
[02:21] <quants> LjL: yes my point
[02:21] <Noxilenticus> there is no eth0 xtknight and that doesn't work, i've tried
[02:21] <ConstyXIV> quants: id say use vlc, but that's my opinion
[02:22] <Noxilenticus> it is a wireless PCMCIA card
[02:22] <LjL> quants: well, Canonical doesn't fancy being sued you know.
[02:22] <mindstate> quants, vlc :)
[02:22] <Noxilenticus> it would probably be wlan0
[02:22] <ConstyXIV> whileiwasgone: that's normal
[02:22] <Noxilenticus> but ifconfig up wlan0 doesn't work either or wlan1
[02:22] <xtknight> will Feisty support restricted formats by default then?  or nvidia/ati binary blobs?  i thought there was some change that favored the end user but didnt favor the "linux philosophy" and people were up in arms
[02:22] <quants> the patented stuff it needs as well
[02:22] <shoumik> need help!!!!!!! My mouse is lagging after some pc. Sometimes when i restart the computer its fine. Is there a permanat solution?
[02:22] <shoumik> pc use*
[02:22] <omgsunny> xtknight, http://i18.tinypic.com/2vim4wh.png
[02:22] <ConstyXIV> xtknight: it will install them when you try to play them
[02:22] <quants> anyway, thanks for the pointers
[02:22] <xtknight> Noxilenticus: odd.  i think ath0 is also a valid name for atheros cards
[02:22] <LjL> Feisty discussion in #ubuntu+1 please
[02:22] <quants> gn
[02:23] <Noxilenticus> still no luck xtknight
[02:23] <shoumik> anyone there?
[02:23] <bulmer> I just realized its not wise to put the CDROM (for ubuntu install) and hard drive on same controller, master n slave..makes for a very very slow install..
[02:23] <xtknight> omgsunny: first of all you dont have the toolbars enabled
[02:23] <xtknight> omgsunny: and youre definitely using a different icon theme
[02:23] <Noxilenticus> it is a ZyAIR B-120 PCMCIA card
[02:23] <Kud> What's the command to go into the video card configuration for default drivers?
[02:23] <omgsunny> xtknight, i want the toolbars
[02:23] <Noxilenticus> i posted on the forums cause i've seen so many problems about it, but I am pretty sure it is a driver issue
[02:23] <Noxilenticus> i've been trying to figure it out for a couple days now
[02:23] <LjL> !xconfig | Kud
[02:23] <ubotu> Kud: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes

[02:24] <bulmer> jwtod1: what device not found? what device is it looking for?
[02:24] <Noxilenticus> all it says is registering new device pcmcia0.0
[02:24] <jwtod1> x is looking for the video card. "no device found" is from
[02:24] <xtknight> Noxilenticus: if it's in device manager that doesnt mean it has a driver
[02:25] <Noxilenticus> well it is smart enough to name it
[02:25] <Noxilenticus> that is why i asked
[02:25] <Noxilenticus> and assumed
[02:25] <jwtod1> x error log
[02:25] <xtknight> Noxilenticus: yes.  it may have a pci id and description in a database but still no driver.
[02:25] <Noxilenticus> that if it doesn't work it has no driver
[02:25] <omgsunny> xtknight, what under view?
[02:25] <bulmer> jwtod1: you need to prefex your response with a nick so we dont miss it
[02:25] <cyne> i have shared a folder with SMB sharing on Ubuntu and set my workgroup the same as an XP computer. I also made a user who cannot access the SMB share when they enter their user/pass combination on XP. any dieas?
[02:25] <jwtod1> thx :)
[02:25] <xtknight> Noxilenticus: well i dont' know if your card has a driver or not off the top of my head.
[02:26] <cyne> they are able to make the connection, it just refuses to give them access
[02:26] <cinnix> ultimate goal: Direct rendering on ATI x800 in order to run beryl. secondary goal: get ctrl + alt + f1 to work on ATI in order to run tseliot's Envy script (which funny enough worked on a previous installation)
[02:26] <xtknight> omgsunny: erm..the toolbars
[02:26] <xtknight> omgsunny: main toolbar, location bar, whichever you want
[02:26] <shoumik> anyone i can talk to about mouse lagging?
[02:27] <Otherworldly> hey, never used Linux or anything like it before. current system set up is a dinosaur... 733Mhz, 256MB SDRAM, an eTower...would it be easy to configure Ubuntu to run quickly with no lag due to bloated GUI?
[02:27] <omgsunny> xtknight, there is no option for that
[02:27] <xtknight> shoumik: sure....what do you mean by mouse lag exactly?
[02:27] <omgsunny> not under pref or view drop down
[02:27] <LordUltimaDavid> i am helping a friend use ubuntu (im not him(using aim)) what is the easiest way to find out what graphics card he is using(nvidia,ATI,Intel)?
[02:27] <xtknight> omgsunny: are you using kubuntu, ubuntu, or xubuntu?
[02:27] <LordUltimaDavid> im not with him
[02:27] <Flannel> Otherworldly: yeah.  You might think about Xubuntu, but that should work no problem.
[02:27] <omgsunny> xtknight, ubuntu with beryl if it matters
[02:27] <rbil> Otherworldly:  you might try running a lighter GUI like Xubuntu
[02:27] <xtknight> omgsunny: ubuntu 6.10?
[02:27] <bulmer> Otherworldly: umm am trying to install it on an HP vectra 4L  500MHz with 192 meg...just for comparisons :)
[02:27] <omgsunny> xtknight, yep.
[02:28] <xtknight> omgsunny: there's no "main toolbar" under nautilus's menu?
[02:28] <cinnix> ultimate goal: Direct rendering on ATI x800 in order to run beryl. secondary goal: get ctrl + alt + f1 to work on ATI in order to run tseliot's Envy script (which funny enough worked on a previous installation)
[02:28] <Otherworldly> bulmer: lol
[02:28] <jwtod1> bulmer: i'm installing 6.10 on a new system, video card is asus en8800gtx (nvidia) and mogher board is evga nforce680isli.
[02:28] <jwtod1> bulmer: installing from a freshly burned 6.10 cd
[02:28] <omgsunny> xtknight, i'm really not seeing anything.
[02:28] <xtknight> omgsunny: click on the View toolbar and take a screenshot of what you see under View
[02:28] <jwtod1> bulmer: x complains about no device found.
[02:29] <Noxilenticus> xtknight, i tried looking all over for drivers for my card, but the maker didn't have one and ndiswapper doesn't work
[02:29] <bulmer> LordUltimaDavid: i learned it from a guy here today. use   lshw
[02:29] <xtknight> omgsunny: hold up.  guess you can't take a screenshot while a menu is open
[02:29] <Noxilenticus> I think it is a Prism 2.5 chipset from a post i was reading so i downloaded the wlan-ng package, but i don't know how to install the drivers other than modprobe pcmcia2_plx
[02:29] <omgsunny> okay
[02:29] <Noxilenticus> and it still doesn't work after that command
[02:29] <ferret_0567> Here is the particular driver I used for my Eyetoy: http://www.rastageeks.org/ov51x-jpeg/index.php/Main_Page
[02:29] <omgsunny> xtknight, okay
[02:29] <xtknight> omgsunny: what's it say under Help->About?
[02:29] <bulmer> jwtod1: do you ever see the 1st menu during boot on the liveCD ?
[02:30] <Jamo> what is apxs/apxs2 (mod_jk build refers to it, but I can't seem to figure out what it is) THX!
[02:30] <jwtod1> bulmer: card looks to be seated ok. video card fan is spinning.
[02:30] <jwtod1> bulmer: yes
[02:30] <omgsunny> xtknight, nautilus 2.16.1
[02:30] <jwtod1> bulmer: neither safe graphics start or the install from cd options work. same error.
[02:30] <bulmer> jwtod1: can you then press F5 i think or F3 to select the lower resolution?
[02:30] <xtknight> omgsunny: i guess your nautilus is destroyed then if there's no "main toolbar" option under the "View" main menu.  i have no oidea
[02:30] <jwtod1> k
[02:30] <Jamo> does anyone know if I can get mod_jk via apt-get? I can't seem to find it in any repositories or discussed in the context of apt.  how can I find this type of thing out?
[02:31] <thug> anyone using guarddog ?
[02:31] <xtknight> omgsunny: go to Places->Home at the top of your screen, and then try with that window?
[02:31] <cinnix> please help me getting direct rendering on ATI x800 in order to run beryl. secondary goal: get ctrl + alt + f1 to work on ATI in order to run tseliot's Envy script (which funny enough worked on a previous installation) either one will help me a lot.
[02:31] <bulmer> Jamo its from an apache site
[02:31] <omgsunny> xtknight, i can PM you the options

[02:36] <omgsunny> xtknight, lemme know if you got the PM
[02:36] <jordo23> bulmer: It's plugged in....

[02:36] <LjL> Noxilenticus: why? i don't see any urlsnarf package available
[02:36] <linuxfanstar> does the 7.10 herd cd have xgl or nvidia drivers isntalled yet?
[02:36] <Noxilenticus> not in ubuntu LjL, try Backtrack

[02:37] <xtknight> omgsunny: odd well mine has a toolbar list right above reset views
[02:38] <bulmer> jwtod1 out of curiosity, can your bios detect that video card?
[02:38] <shoumik> hey anyone i can talk to this is getting frustrating
[02:38] <xtknight> omgsunny: maybe beryl is screwing something up.  try without it?  i dont know.  i really doubt it but that's all i can think of
[02:38] <Otherworldly> What is the difference? I search for xbuntu torrent and get these results: desktop i386, alternate i386, and vm 1.02. I am running slow Celeron chip, desktop i386 correct for me?
[02:38] <xtknight> omgsunny: what happens if you do reset view to default?
[02:38] <LjL> Otherworldly: how much RAM
[02:38] <Otherworldly> 256
[02:38] <shoumik> i lol
[02:38] <Noxilenticus> oh i see LjL
[02:38] <Noxilenticus> !info wlan-ng
[02:38] <ubotu> Package wlan-ng does not exist in any distro I know

[02:38] <Otherworldly> .
[02:38] <shoumik> LjL help me out
[02:39] <linuxfanstar> by the way if i originally isntalled with ubuntu and then isntalled kubuntu-desktop but dont want gnome anymore is there a way to remove gnome?
[02:39] <Otherworldly> LjL: 256MB SDRAM
[02:39] <xtknight> shoumik: sure....what do you mean by mouse lag exactly?
[02:39] <shoumik> its very slow to respond
[02:39] <shoumik> when i move it it moves a few seconds later. Half the speed i orignaly moved it
[02:39] <Noxilenticus> can't you go into synaptic and remove it linuxfanstar?
[02:39] <xtknight> shoumik: ah hmm.  you could try using a different mouse driver
[02:40] <Polygon89> I have a problem, every time i click the "quit" button in ubuntu, it automatically logs me out without giving me the choice to restart, shutdown, hibernate, switch users, etc. any ideas?
[02:40] <omgsunny> xtknight, how would i reinstall nautilus
[02:40] <linuxfanstar> yes but i dont know what files are part of the ubuntu base that i need to remove
[02:40] <shoumik> i did't even install a mouse driver. I tried 2 diff. USB mouses and same problem
[02:40] <jwtod1> bulmer: i'll check
[02:40] <shoumik> when i restart it sometimes get better
[02:40] <Polygon89> linuxfanstar: you could see if "ubuntu-desktop", and try removing that, its a meta package that has all of the gnome files as dependencies and might remove it
[02:40] <quaal> i am getting this error http://pastebin.ca/339383 when using this in my fstab to mount an ntfs drive: /dev/hdd /mnt/win80 ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
[02:40] <bulmer> jwtod1 and also, if you can ctrl+alt+f2 and type lshw   to see if the video card is detected? am guessing here, i dont know if this command is available at install
[02:40] <LjL> Otherworldly: the Desktop CD should do. Alternate is needed only if you have little RAM; or the Desktop CD gives you problems for some reason. the Ubotu bot has sent you a message about it
[02:41] <xtknight> omgsunny: umm..... type this in the console: "sudo apt-get --reinstall install nautilus"
[02:41] <quaal> anyone know what i'm doing wrong ?
[02:41] <LjL> shoumik, i have hardly a clue
[02:41] <Jamo> how can I learn about what the colors mean when I do ls -al
[02:41] <linuxfanstar> i would reinstall from scratch but i cant figure out how to set up my wireless in kde without kwifi
[02:41] <cinnix> ctrl + alt + f1 does not work as is should..i get a corrupt display and no terminal. can anyone help me?
[02:41] <shoumik> in some ubuntu forum someone made a post about it but no one responded.
[02:41] <shoumik> It was a year and a half ago
[02:41] <xtknight> shoumik: well it is using a default driver somewhere.  what kind of mouse is this?
[02:42] <shoumik> I first tried a ge notebook mouse
[02:42] <LjL> Ubotu, tell _ceed_ about away | _ceed_, see the private message from Ubotu
[02:42] <bulmer> Jamo  look for the option --colors on ls
[02:42] <shoumik> then i used a dell desktop mouse
[02:42] <jwtod1> bulmer: another data point. this system has sata disks vs ide. they are detected by bios so i assumed all is well. perhaps that is blocking install.
[02:42] <shoumik> they both have similar issues
[02:42] <xtknight> shoumik: this doesn't happen under windows?
[02:42] <Polygon89> linuxfanstar: you could see if "ubuntu-desktop", and try removing that, its a meta package that has all of the gnome files as dependencies and might remove it
[02:42] <bur[n] er> anyone have experience with a mac mini and Ubuntu?
[02:42] <shoumik> no
[02:42] <Polygon89> crap ignore that
[02:42] <Jamo> ls --colors, -colors, ls help, none of that helps, what is dark green?
[02:43] <shoumik> It was fine in windows.
[02:43] <bulmer> jwtod1: it seems people are having difficulties with SATA drives..i dont know if its really true though..
[02:43] <linuxfanstar> thanks, i will look into that
[02:43] <Polygon89> Hello, i have a problem. whenever i click the "quit" button in ubuntu, it automatically logs me out, it does not show the box that lets me choose to switch user, lock screen, restart, shut down, etc. How do i fix this?
[02:43] <xtknight> Jamo: ask in #linux
[02:43] <ferret_0567> Just a sec...
[02:43] <Onbutiiku> I've got a problem with partitioning
[02:44] <xtknight> shoumik: well all i can suggest is changing the mouse driver in your xorg.conf file.  you will need to find out which input driver you are using now for your mouse
[02:44] <shoumik> kk
[02:44] <shoumik> thx for your help
[02:44] <ferret_0567> linuxfanstar: Are you using Ubuntu 6.10 or 6.06 and what desktop enviroment are you trying to remove?
[02:44] <bulmer> Jamo man ls  its there explained well
[02:45] <xtknight> i didn't see anything about the colors really meant in 'man ls'
[02:45] <Onbutiiku> I'm trying to install ubuntu on my external HD. When I go through the install I choose to reformat the ext drive and use that. Well, about 5-15% through the install it always says "Failed to create file system". What do I do?
[02:45] <bur[n] er> Onbutiiku, pre-format it before installing using gparted?
[02:46] <Onbutiiku> lol, I just noticed I spelled my name wrong. I don't know exactly, I'm installing Ubuntu from the live CD.
[02:46] <Onbutiiku> Dapper Drake
[02:47] <Onburiiku> And when it gets to the partitioning part I tell it to format the drive and install it from that.
[02:47] <bulmer> i forget..can linux be booted off of a slave drive or not? or that depends on the bios?
[02:47] <gezzabob> morning all
[02:47] <Moniker42> hey i can't unrar my rars!
[02:47] <Onburiiku> I'm pretty sure it works
[02:48] <X5-452> What should I do if I get the "Broken packages" error message? I'm trying to install "libfox1.2c2", but it can't meet the "libcupsys2-gnutls10" dependency
[02:48] <Onburiiku> I've halfway ran Ubuntu from the HDD before
[02:48] <Onburiiku> it failed to mount a bunch of stuff though
[02:48] <jwtod1> bulmer: i'm still stuck. i don't see the video card from bios but it does flash by quickly
[02:49] <Otherworldly> .
[02:49] <Moniker42> apt-get unrar and unrar-nonfree give me "E: Package unrar has no installation candidate"
[02:49] <Onburiiku> Bulmer: Plus, there's a "USB Device" option in the boot menu thing
[02:49] <X5-452> Have you added the extra repositories?
[02:49] <jwtod1> bulmer: the disks are sata on this box, vs ide, so i wonder if that is causing an install problem. all disks and cd (ide) look to be recognized by bios though.
[02:50] <bulmer> jwtod1  is the sata drive recognized?
[02:50] <quaal> anyone know why the usb ntfs drive that ubuntu automatically mounted is there without an fstab entry?
[02:50] <jwtod1> they look to be. 2 of them.
[02:50] <X5-452> Moniker42, take a look here: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_RAR_Archiver_.28rar.29
[02:50] <bulmer> Onburiiku: what about it? i asked about if linux can boot off of a slave drive
[02:50] <LordUltimaDavid> where could i find a good guide to install nvidia beta drivers
[02:51] <Onburiiku> Bulmer: My HD is connected Via USB.
[02:51] <Moniker42> X5-452, E: Package rar has no installation candidate
[02:51] <Onburiiku> And my BIOS recognises it
[02:51] <ferret_0567> linuxfanstar: are you here?
