[06:57] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[06:57] <GhostFreeman> awesome, thanks
[06:57] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, i just put ubuntu on a toshiba satellite, it's verrrrry niiiiice.  had it on my old compaq presario m2000, but had issues with the broadcomm wifi.  is your chipset broadcomm?
[06:58] <tonyyarusso> Can anyone recommend topographic map software for Linux?
[06:58] <Sakireth> Dr_willis: Damn. So now I have to install KDE again to remove it?!
[06:58] <jUggERNAUt1980> google earth?
[06:58] <dooglus> lol
[06:58] <Dr_willis> Sakireth,  or fire up synaptic and start clicking...
[06:58] <eyequeue> tonyyarusso, i'd love some, if there is any :)
[06:59] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980: yep, got it working after about 45 minutes with ndiswrapper.  There is a native broadcomm driver now, but I tried the 64bit ubuntu with it (disecting the windows driver to get the firmware as discussed) and it didn't work too well.  Apparently the 32bit version with the windows firmware works perfectly now in Dapper
[06:59] <Flannel> Sakireth: deborphan / debfoster can help
[06:59] <Sakireth> Dr_willis: And do what?
[06:59] <Dr_willis> Sakireth,  select packages,, uninstall
[06:59] <Bacaruda> nm I got it
[06:59] <Dr_willis> Sakireth,  i recall some site that mentioned how to remove the packages. they just listed the ones normally installed.
[06:59] <dfgas> e17 anyone?
[07:00] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, hmm....i'll have to let my friend the bastard know about that, he has my old lappy now and isn't sure if he wants to deal with that chipset.
[07:00] <Bacaruda> how about this, how do I create an SH to launch a certain file with Wine?
[07:00] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, is that solution posted anywhere?
[07:00] <blind> Problemmmmm.... I installed the nvidia drivers, changed my bios to use the nvidia card. Ubuntu boots fine, when gnome starts up, the monitor clicks off. I hear the little login screen, and can use ttys (what im using now), but I can't see the login screen.
[07:00] <Somniis> blind: the res might not be supported?
[07:00] <cpw> a'ight this keyboard focus thing is really starting to irritate me
[07:00] <Dr_willis> blind,  sounds like it may be set to use the old card in the x config still
[07:00] <`paul> jUggERNAUt1980: got it to work, just waited for around 30 mins till the connection timed out :p now i know its connecting to the net when installing ()
[07:01] <KromiX> umm I'm at the login screen for ubuntu, my frist installation, and its asking me for a user/password?? I dont recall it asking me for one? Is there a default?
[07:01] <tonyyarusso> eyequeue: We found something Google doesn't have any sponsored links for.
[07:01] <jUggERNAUt1980> `paul, great!  :)
[07:01] <blind> Dr_willis: I did a dpkg-reconfigure, and changed it to PCI:1:2:0 (the nvidia card, as in lspci). should i do it again now that i set the bios over?
[07:01] <Neo8750> you had to set it up durning install
[07:01] <eyequeue> tonyyarusso, heh
[07:01] <rixth> When two applications try to access the sound card, I get errors, How can I fix this?
[07:01] <Dr_willis> blind,  yea ya may want to.
[07:02] <DrZeus> Dr_willis, what an awful review
[07:02] <GenitalCombat> Question! I'm about to buy my first laptop. Are resolutions adjustable on laptop LCDs?
[07:02] <ArrenLex> Answer! Yes.
[07:02] <Neo8750> ofc
[07:02] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980: Sorry, i lost my client, what did you just say?
[07:02] <`paul> jUggERNAUt1980: btw i forgot where do i put the proxy settings for apt?? or setting up proxy settings in gnome will do?
[07:02] <Dr_willis> DrZeus,  :) one of the harshest ive ever seen.. and  from other googling for linux cad.. seems the program is total trash.
[07:02] <blind> rixth, there's a daemon you can use, but i forget the name. someone else may know.
[07:02] <blind> rixth, possibly epd?
[07:02] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, hmm....i'll have to let my friend the bastard know about that, he has my old lappy now and isn't sure if he wants to deal with that chipset.
[07:02] <rixth> blind, esd?
[07:02] <Sakireth> I think this means a reinstall :(
[07:03] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, is that solution posted anywhere?
[07:03] <ArrenLex> Hallo sakireth.
[07:03] <GenitalCombat> ArrenLex: thx
[07:03] <Sakireth> ArrenLex: Hi.
[07:03] <eyequeue> !esd
[07:03] <ubotu> esd is the enlightened sound deamon. It's deprecated, use !alsa instead
[07:03] <jUggERNAUt1980> `paul, gnome should do nicely.
[07:03] <eyequeue> !alsa
[07:03] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[07:03] <DrZeus> yeah, I found out a couple of days a go.  I wanted to see if someone knew anything about it
[07:03] <DrZeus> seems to be is dead
[07:03] <Sakireth> ArrenLex: I have trouble here. Installed kubuntu-desktop and can't remove it. PC has become slow because of KDE. I tried removing kdelibs and stuff, but... not everything is gone.
[07:03] <rixth> eyequeue, alsa gives me the error described, and I have chcked those links.
[07:03] <ArrenLex> DrZeus: what is dead?
[07:03] <n0dl> does anyone here use pypanel of edgy eft? whats the command to invoke it
[07:03] <n0dl> pypanel doesnt work
[07:04] <n0dl> and i cant find it by tabbing py
[07:04] <n0dl> nor panel
[07:04] <eyequeue> n0dl, wrong channel
[07:04] <Flannel> n0dl: #ubuntu+1 for edgy questions
[07:04] <DrZeus> ArrenLex, a CAD software called LinuxCAd
[07:04] <blind> Dr_willis: just did it. It worked!! Thanks a bunch. :D
[07:04] <Dr_willis> blind,  now hit it with a hammer! :)
[07:04] <blind> Dr_willis: no no, that's if it doesn't work :P
[07:04] <ArrenLex> DrZeus: if you're looking for an autocad replacement for Linux, you're out of luck. I myself have looked deeply for such an application a year or so ago. The best I could come up with was pycad.
[07:04] <n0dl> eyequeue: alright thanx
[07:05] <Dr_willis> blind,  'preventive maintance'
[07:05] <Dr_willis> :P
[07:05] <Dr_willis> I liked qcad - but my needs are minimal
[07:05] <dfgas> e17 anyone?
[07:05] <ArrenLex> Sorry, that's pythoncad *
[07:05] <ArrenLex> !pythoncad
[07:05] <ubotu> pythoncad: Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) program. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1.26-1 (dapper), package size 400 kB, installed size 3080 kB
[07:05] <ArrenLex> And it wasn't very good.
[07:05] <blind> dfgas: not a fan. i just use fluxbox.
[07:05] <Dr_willis> !qcad
[07:06] <ubotu> qcad: A professional CAD System. In component universe, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>-1-2.1ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 2872 kB, installed size 12564 kB
[07:06] <Dr_willis> see qcad is 'professional' :P
[07:06] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, what do you use for your network managing?
[07:06] <ArrenLex> Dr_willis: pythoncad has a longer name. :P
[07:06] <Dr_willis> pythoncad  package size 400 kB, installed size 3080 kB
[07:06] <DrZeus> ArrenLex, then you at least tried and/or seen linuxcad right?
[07:06] <Dr_willis> gesh.. it expands a lot.
[07:06] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, apparently network-manager can't see my atheros wifi.  i'm currently using wifi-radar.
[07:06] <KromiX> whats the user name?
[07:06] <KromiX> the install just asks for a password
[07:06] <KromiX> ?
[07:07] <ArrenLex> Zeus: I donut remember it.
[07:07] <DrZeus> i see
[07:07] <Dr_willis> last version of LinuxCad - i see  is dated 2002
[07:08] <ArrenLex> Dr_willis: then I'm guessing it's abandoned.
[07:08] <DrZeus> seems to be; it was a commercial tool, so they just quit
[07:08] <mike-digiport> I installed Ubuntu on my desktop, and when it is going to the login screen, it just stays black, as if X or Gnome or something must of frozen
[07:08] <mike-digiport> Im new to ubuntu so can someone help me troubleshoot
[07:08] <mike-digiport> when I boot to rescue mode, it goes in fine, as console mode
[07:08] <ArrenLex> Mike: are you new to Linux?
[07:09] <mike-digiport> i even modified /etc/inittab to initmode 3
[07:09] <mike-digiport> and still attempts to bring up the gui login
[07:09] <Sakireth> !kde uninstall
[07:09] <ubotu> kde: the K Desktop Environment official modules. In component universe, is optional. Version 5:45ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 7 kB, installed size 40 kB
[07:09] <mike-digiport> no im not new to Linux, but im not too advanced, im just new to the diustro
[07:09] <Sakireth> !remove kde
[07:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about remove kde - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:09] <Dr_willis> ArrenLex,  that would be my guess also.
[07:09] <eyequeue> mike-digiport, ubuntu doesn't do runlevels like that, that's rpm distros
[07:09] <Sakireth> !kde
[07:09] <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
[07:09] <mike-digiport> oh
[07:09] <ArrenLex> Sakireth, why would you want to remove KDE? :(
[07:09] <mike-digiport> I also did install kubuntu-desktop
[07:09] <aSt3raL> is there any web interface type thing for a ssh?
[07:09] <eyequeue> mike-digiport, 2=3=4=5
[07:09] <Sakireth> ArrenLex: Made things slow. Messed up my menu's.
[07:10] <jUggERNAUt1980> so i installed google earth here in ubuntu, but can't find where it is, nor do i know how to run it.  any ideas for me?
[07:10] <mike-digiport> so what is recommended?
[07:10] <eyequeue> mike-digiport, 2 is default
[07:10] <mike-digiport> I think gnome was installed, but i installed kubuntu
[07:10] <mike-digiport> and when i try to startkde from here
[07:10] <mike-digiport> it says it cannot connect to the X server (i am in rescue mode at the moment)
[07:10] <ArrenLex> mike: run startx
[07:10] <clearzen> could someone help me. I'm unable to update my system and it gives me a strange error when I run apt-get update.
[07:10] <mike-digiport> I do, when I do startx, it does the same thing that when it boots up normally
[07:10] <mike-digiport> it just stays with a cursor
[07:11] <ArrenLex> clearzen: "strange error"?
[07:11] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980: I actually configure mine manually, using ifconfig and iwconfig
[07:11] <mike-digiport> after a fw seconds, the cursor gets solid, stops blinking
[07:11] <`paul> jUggERNAUt1980: where can i find sources list? (restricted stuffs ie. nvidia drivers)
[07:11] <Somniis> mike: you might need to configure x
[07:11] <ArrenLex> Mike: does it actually freeze or does the cursor move?
[07:11] <mike-digiport> ] the cursor blinks, but doesnt type
[07:11] <mike-digiport> but after a few seconds, the cursor stops blinking
[07:11] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980 : I created a startup script that automatically sets my essid and then brings the interface up.  Then I dhclient it.
[07:11] <Sakireth> KDE MESSED UP MY SYSTEM!!!
[07:11] <Bacaruda> wow using Steam with no text is more of a pain then you'd think it would be
[07:11] <mike-digiport> is there a way to just manually load startkde or something???
[07:11] <Sakireth> does this mean a reinstall? :(
[07:11] <clearzen> ArrenLex:It says Errhttp://archive.canonical.com dapper-commercial Release.gpg
[07:11] <clearzen>   Could not connect to <IP_ADDRESS>:8080 (<IP_ADDRESS>), connection timed out
[07:11] <jUggERNAUt1980> clearzen, what's the error?
[07:12] <harisund> Does anybody know how I can have Ubuntu act as a dynamic dns server .. in that my lan clients get their IPs from my ubuntu box, and as they get it my ubuntu box should have the dns updated?
[07:12] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980 : much easier than wasting a lifetime trying to figure out whats wrong with gnome-network-manager.  its never worked for me.
[07:12] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, can you pastebin that script with instructions?
[07:12] <ArrenLex> clearzen: then I guess the server's down?
[07:12] <clearzen> and this Errhttp://archive.ubuntu.com dapper Release.gpg
[07:12] <mike-digiport> any tools or anything to use??
[07:12] <cartufer> harisund, i think thats a dhcp server
[07:12] <SurfnKid> will there be another release of a different type of ubuntu, like dapper or breezy
[07:12] <clearzen> I think it has to do with my gpg keys
[07:13] <harisund> cartufer: well no .. I have tried using both a stand alone dhcp server and dnsmasq.
[07:13] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980: sure, if you really want it
[07:13] <mike-digiport> or atleast, how can I set it up so it boots kubuntu instead of the gnome environment
[07:13] <Flannel> SurfnKid: what?  edgy is coming out late october.  releases are every 6 months
[07:13] <clearzen> how do I regenerate my key cache?
[07:13] <eyequeue> harisund, sudo apt-get install dhcp3-server
[07:13] <Flannel> mike-digiport: you can change your default session at gdm/kdm
[07:13] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, i like connecting to random open networks, so i'm looking for a good solution for sniffing them out and connecting.
[07:13] <cartufer> or do u mean like a locked dns?
[07:13] <mike-digiport> Flannel ho that
[07:13] <Sakireth> anyone?
[07:13] <mike-digiport> how is that*
[07:13] <Sakireth> kde messed up my system! :(
[07:14] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, i DO really want it!  :D
[07:14] <mike-digiport> Flannel: how is that
[07:14] <Flannel> mike-digiport: there's a session selection somewhere on your login screen, that you can select your OS to boot into
[07:14] <SurfnKid> Flannel, oh right, would you recommend Edgy over Dapper or would it depend on the type of HW used
[07:14] <mike-digiport> the default session I usually choose it from the login screen
[07:14] <mike-digiport> and the login screen isnt loading up
[07:14] <Flannel> SurfnKid: well, it'll be newer.
[07:14] <mike-digiport> after the system boots, it gets black, and then acts as if it is about to bring up the login screen
[07:14] <Flannel> mike-digiport: so, you've got a gdm/kdm problem then
[07:14] <mike-digiport> but doesnt
[07:14] <mike-digiport> can you help me troubleshoot this?
[07:14] <harisund> cartufer: hmm. Ok this is what I want. My room mate connects to my ubuntu box. His Windows machine's name is 'Hestueron'. My Ubuntu's dhcp server (dhcp3-server) hands him an IP of <IP_ADDRESS> today, and when I say ping Hestueron it should ping <IP_ADDRESS>. Tomorrow it might probably hand him <IP_ADDRESS> and when I ping hesturoen tomorrow it should correctly ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:15] <Flannel> mike-digiport: or actually, that sounds like a graphics problem, or somethng of that sort, if it brings up nothing.
[07:15] <Jangsta> HeY!!
[07:15] <mike-digiport> Flannel: what do you recommend I do?
[07:15] <cartufer> ya, thats in network settings
[07:15] <Somniis> hello Jangsta
[07:15] <Jangsta> wondering if anyone's feeling in a happy spirit and can help me out?
[07:15] <cartufer> u have to make it set its own, and not automatic
[07:15] <Jangsta> trying to install ubuntu on my PC and having trouble with install :(
[07:15] <jUggERNAUt1980> are pastebin posts deleted after a certain amount of time?
[07:15] <Somniis> Jangsta: what's the problem?
[07:16] <SurfnKid> Flannel, so if i m on dapper, would it be feasible to go edgy, doing a dist upgr?
[07:16] <Flannel> SurfnKid: correct
[07:16] <Jangsta> well, it gets going... and then after a while it says this:
[07:16] <Flannel> mike-digiport: sorry, no idea.  I don't have a GUI usually, so little knowledge on troubleshooting it ;)
[07:16] <SurfnKid> cool
[07:16] <SurfnKid> i might do that
[07:16] <mike-digiport> dang
[07:16] <mike-digiport> thjnx
[07:16] <mike-digiport> exit
[07:16] <mike-digiport> quit

[07:17] <KromiX> was is the default user name? root? admin?
[07:17] <Flannel> KromiX: how did you install it?
[07:17] <rixth> eyequeue, alsa gives me the error described, and I have chcked those links.
[07:17] <KromiX> using the alternate install cd
[07:17] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980: http://pastebin.ca/181592
[07:17] <Flannel> KromiX: did you select the oem mode? or what?
[07:17] <KromiX> oem mode
[07:17] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, .ca???  are you from canada?
[07:18] <KromiX> should i have done text?
[07:18] <Jangsta> anyone have any idea as to my prob :\
[07:18] <Somniis> Jangsta: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:18] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980 : no, its the only pastebin I've ever used
[07:18] <Flannel> KromiX: heh, oem is for people distributing the computer, it leaves all the user config stuff until afterwards.  You actually don't have your first user set up yet, just an 'oem' user
[07:18] <SunDragon> does ubuntu maintain a vulnerability scanning program to report CVE and CAN vulnerabilities in the installed packages, somewhat like debsecan?
[07:18] <Somniis> Jangsta: and make sure you have the correct PCI bus entered
[07:18] <KromiX> so i should do text?
[07:18] <KromiX> lol
[07:19] <Jangsta> ok, just entered that
[07:19] <Jangsta> thanks man, will go through this now
[07:19] <Somniis> np :)
[07:19] <KromiX> ok re-doing it in text mode then?
[07:19] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui:  oh!  haha, i was given the one in NL
[07:19] <rixth> SunDragon, yes, in malone
[07:19] <kamui> :)
[07:19] <Jangsta> so i should not auto-detect right?
[07:19] <Somniis> yeah
[07:19] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, thanks for that paste.  do you know if those posts are deleted after a certain time period?
[07:19] <Somniis> well, you can
[07:19] <Jangsta> k i'll select no and attempt myself
[07:19] <Jangsta> oh
[07:20] <Somniis> if it doesn't work, just reconfigure it again :-)
[07:20] <Flannel> KromiX: login with your user (oem/whatever password), open a terminal do: sudo oem-config-prepare, then reboot
[07:20] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980:couldn't tell you, cause I have NO IDea, but Im pretty sure they have to learn for a little whiel

[07:20] <kamui> what did I just write
[07:20] <Somniis> Jangsta: i had a similiar problem.  x wouldn't use my primary card, so i had to manually enter the pci bus and it worked fine
[07:20] <Jangsta> ahh
[07:21] <kamui> jUggERNAUt1980 : sorry, I was trying to do three things at once.  I was trying to say, I don't know how long they stay posted, but Im confident you have at least 48 hours
[07:21] <Jangsta> its asking me for the drivers, i might have to start my comp in windows to find the name of the card
[07:21] <Jangsta> its an "aftermarket" card :)
[07:21] <Lam_> if i wanted to change my kernel (k8), and the only thing available is k7, will it work?
[07:21] <Jangsta> and i dont remember the name
[07:21] <cartufer> can gnome handle multiple screens?
[07:21] <butleR`> anyone know how i can get Totem to play .wmv files?
[07:21] <Somniis> you can use vesa for a good driver
[07:21] <Jangsta> oh ok
[07:21] <Flannel> Lam_: what processor do you have?
[07:21] <Lam_> AMD Turion64
[07:21] <KromiX> FLannel: i just started the re-install in text
[07:21] <KromiX> ;P
[07:22] <KromiX> i love ubuntu already and I haven't even completed the install.
[07:22] <Flannel> Lam_: but you grabbed the 386 install CD?  yeah, install k7.
[07:22] <Somniis> you'll like it even better when it is installed ;-)
[07:22] <Jangsta> now its asking me for the video cards bus identifier
[07:22] <SunDragon> rixth: is there an interface that will only report for the packages that are installed on my system?
[07:22] <Jangsta> im not sure...
[07:22] <Lam_> Flannel: yeah. i installed ubuntu on my computer first (and it was an Intel based processor)
[07:22] <rixth> SunDragon, not sure
[07:22] <jUggERNAUt1980> KromiX, i second that motion!  :)
[07:22] <Somniis> Jangsta: use the default it has and see if it works
[07:23] <Jangsta> ok will do
[07:23] <jUggERNAUt1980> kamui, thanks!
[07:23] <Flannel> Lam_: ah, yeah, you've got a 32 bit system then
[07:23] <Jangsta> ammount of memory to use on video card?
[07:23] <Somniis> leave blank if you don't know
[07:23] <Jangsta> ill leave blank
[07:23] <Jangsta> yeah
[07:23] <Cyrix404> How do I get the drums to stop playing on vesion 5.04 for Intel x86?

[07:28] <jUggERNAUt1980> maybe i just downloaded it without installing?
[07:28] <Dr_willis> jUggERNAUt1980,  sounds that way..  its also in the PLF repositories it seems. :P
[07:28] <Somniis> Jangsta: no need to be sorry :-)  i just installed Ubuntu a few days ago, but i had problems with x on bootup too
[07:29] <jUggERNAUt1980> Dr_willis, plf repositories?  can i sudo apt-get it?
[07:29] <KromiX> Do you guys suggest i install kde-core on ubuntu as a new user? or does it slow the system down alot?
[07:29] <Flannel> KromiX: why do you feel the need to do that?
[07:29] <Dr_willis> jUggERNAUt1980,  I just did. :P
[07:29] <KromiX> looks easier to use then gnome ?

[07:43] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org  To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[07:43] <kintaro0e> bimberi_: thanks..does is support centrino?what i have read it has P4/celeron/P3/P2..?
[07:43] <shinobi2> which app do i need so i can "man abs()" for compile c programs?
[07:43] <rixth> When two applications try to access the sound card, I get errors, How can I fix this?

[07:45] <kintaro0e> bimberi_: no problem
[07:45] <Dr_willis> jUggERNAUt1980,  apt-get update, apt-get upgrade. same as anything else. :)
[07:45] <DrZeus> im out fellas.  Have a good night; God bless you all
[07:45] <jUggERNAUt1980> i know where the dr_thanks!  :)
[07:46] <fluvvell> we have a joystick on a yamaha soundcard, where do we start to set it up?  There appears to be a /dev/joy0 but flightgear / search and rescue and others don't find the joystick
[07:47] <Dr_willis> the programs may have some settings to where to look.
[07:47] <Dr_willis> I though they appeared on /dev/input/js0
[07:47] <Dr_willis> try 'cat /dev/js0' and wiggle the stick.. see if data prints out. :P
[07:47] <jUggERNAUt1980> ok, another question:  how can i set apt-get to look to my hd instead of the cdrom?
[07:47] <shinobi2> anyone compile code?
[07:48] <Dr_willis> jUggERNAUt1980,  comment out/rmove the cdrom apt line.. and it should update from the internet.
[07:48] <shinobi2> which package do i need for the "man fprintf" and other functions
[07:48] <jUggERNAUt1980> Dr_willis, location of the file?  i know i should remember that.
[07:48] <fluvvell> Dr_willis, it appears there but says no such device if I try to tail it.
[07:49] <Dr_willis> !apt-get
[07:49] <ubotu> apt is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto  -  Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[07:49] <Dr_willis> fluvvell,  perhaps a sudo cat /dev/js0
[07:50] <cpw> shinobi2: manpages-dev
[07:50] <fluvvell> Dr_willis, cat: /dev/input/js0: No such device
[07:50] <shinobi2> cpw: thanks, that's the one
[07:50] <thenetduck> can somone help me get my sudo command back?
[07:51] <Ademan> how would i go about finding low level C functions for linux? things that are generally kernel functions, like setting the user id of a proccess, or moving files around and whatnot ?
[07:51] <Dr_willis> fluvvell,  sounds like the module for the joystick may not be loaded
[07:52] <shinobi2> cpw is there another way to "man printf"? i have to "man fprintf" to get the correct printf
[07:52] <alamba> elaborate thenetduck
[07:52] <fluvvell> Dr_willis, its a YMF-724F according to lspci
[07:53] <fluvvell> Dr_willis, but I'm not sure if I have to pull more out of alsa, nor exactly what
[07:53] <mungo> hello all
[07:53] <Dr_willis> fluvvell,  this is on a sound card eh?
[07:53] <thenetduck> alamba : thanks, when I use my sudo command it gives me this error : sudo: must be setuid root
[07:53] <fluvvell> Dr_willis, correct.  Sound works beautifully
[07:53] <carlos> hola
[07:54] <Dr_willis> fluvvell,  time to google.. also the module specific to the joystick may need to be loaded.. and other related modules
[07:54] <thenetduck> alamba : I was going thew this tutorial that made it happen http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountlinux
[07:55] <thenetduck> when I typed this in sudo chown -R thenetduck:thenetduck  /media/Storage   it made that happen ....
[07:56] <alamba> thenetduck: If sudo is installed as /usr/bin/sudo, then run chmod 4111 /usr/bin/sudo - As root. If you haven't enabled the root user...then we'll need to figure out another way
[07:56] <thenetduck> alaba hu?
[07:57] <thenetduck> alamba umm sorry ... so whats wrong with it?
[07:58] <jUggERNAUt1980> what's the location of my sources.list file?

[08:03] <w30> cpw swat runs in a browser window and just presents a login window.......
[08:03] <Somniis> good, you just need to convert that to decimal
[08:03] <Jangsta> the other is nVidia Geforce FX 5200
[08:03] <Jangsta> oh how do i do that?
[08:03] <Somniis> what is the number?

[08:04] <Somniis> exact same as mine, lol,
[08:04] <Jangsta> :O !!!
[08:04] <Jangsta> how can that be

[08:04] <Jangsta> lol
[08:04] <Jangsta> ok cool i will type that in now
[08:04] <Somniis> hope that works :)
[08:04] <w30> cpw, how do I do that in a http browser?
[08:04] <Locke> um

[08:06] <magneticubuntu> cpw: thank you
[08:06] <Somniis> that should make it work Jangsta
[08:07] <Somniis> had the exact problem you did.. right down to it defaulting the bus to the integrated crap lol
[08:07] <mikedep333> hello, I just bought a really new motherboard, with an intel P965 and an ICH8
[08:07] <mikedep333> is it normal for absolutely every linux cd to fail to boot off of it? they all fail to mount their filesystems off the cd
[08:07] <mikedep333> even ubuntu edgy knot3 does it!
[08:07] <Jangsta> hahaha damn ok, its re-installing, it will error, and i will try this again
[08:07] <jUggERNAUt1980> brb, goin to meet up with my beek friend.  peace!  :)

[08:08] <Jangsta> <-- idiot
[08:08] <Jangsta> :(
[08:08] <Somniis> nah.  startx should have done it
[08:08] <Somniis> but restarting doesn't hurt
[08:08] <Jangsta> oh well i mean, it took me out of the config
[08:08] <andruk_> how do i get the ubuntu live-CD to update my grub menu.lst?
[08:08] <Jangsta> i should have just re-typed into it but now i get to wait

[08:09] <valehru> Anyone know where I can find xgame gtk2?
[08:10] <nd0627> how do you uninstall flash ?
[08:11] <KrakensDen> apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree ?
[08:11] <w30> KrakensDen, no but http://localhost:631 gives you a configuration gui interface to cups if you have a basic need of help
[08:12] <Jangsta> bah ok
[08:12] <Jangsta> i finally got it entered
[08:12] <Jangsta> i was typing over the set :0
[08:12] <KrakensDen> w30, yeah... that isn't quite enough. I'm trying to specify that it use an ip through a specific network interface
[08:12] <Jangsta> and i just did
[08:12] <Jangsta> PCI:2:10
[08:12] <Jangsta> that worked
[08:12] <kintaro0e> hi guys..if i installed a ubuntu 6.06 and and i want to make my system to be ubuntu 6.06.1..how will i do that?
[08:12] <KrakensDen> w30, I think you might be able to do that in the URI
[08:12] <KrakensDen> w30, but I don't know how
[08:13] <nd0627> @KrakensDen apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree ... it didn't do it
[08:13] <Somniis> Jangsta: does x start now?
[08:13] <nd0627> how do you know where you installed flash
[08:13] <KrakensDen> nd0627, no?
[08:13] <Jangsta> omg :(
[08:13] <KrakensDen> nd0627, you had root/ran it with sudo, correct?
[08:14] <Jangsta> startx
[08:14] <Jangsta> failed
[08:14] <Jangsta> could vera drivers be the issue?
[08:14] <Somniis> ummm.. give an error?
[08:14] <nd0627> @KrakensDen yup.
[08:14] <Somniis> you can try vga
[08:14] <mikedep333> oh, god damnit
[08:14] <mikedep333> hello, I just bought a really new motherboard, with an intel P965 and an ICH8
[08:14] <mikedep333> is it normal for absolutely every linux cd to fail to boot off of it? they all fail to mount their filesystems off the cd
[08:14] <mikedep333> even ubuntu edgy knot3 does it!
[08:14] <KrakensDen> nd0627, did you restart your browser?
[08:14] <mikedep333> oops
[08:14] <Jangsta> XIO fatal error 104 (Connect reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
[08:14] <nd0627> @KrakensDen don't know if I really installed it
[08:14] <mikedep333> http://kerneltrap.org/node/7020
[08:14] <KrakensDen> nd0627, the inodes will stay around otherwise
[08:14] <mikedep333> it looks like I'll have to wait for linux 2.6.18
[08:14] <Somniis> hmm.  you entered PCI:2:10:0 right?
[08:15] <Jangsta> well
[08:15] <Jangsta> you know how the last :0 is anchored
[08:15] <nick_> when i go to display in system settings i get "The module Display cannot be loaded"
[08:15] <Somniis> yeah.. but put it there anyhow, can't hurt
[08:15] <Jangsta> see if i delete all thats there
[08:16] <Jangsta> and enter PCI:2:10:0
[08:16] <Jangsta> it says incorrect format
[08:16] <Jangsta> ok wait
[08:16] <Jangsta> hang on :)
[08:17] <valehru> Anyone here run xgame?  Getting the following error: Fatal server error:
[08:17] <valehru> Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs        for all framebuffer devices
[08:17] <KrakensDen> nd0627, well... does it work?
[08:17] <KrakensDen> nd0627, the hardcore, hackish way of getting rid of it would be to run a `locate libflash` and then go manually remove that
[08:17] <Jangsta> BLAR :(
[08:17] <KrakensDen> nd0627, but I wouldn't do that
[08:17] <Somniis> 02:0a.0 is 2:10:0.. dunno why that doesn't work, lol, it worked for me
[08:17] <KrakensDen> nd0627, 'cause it messes with apt's head
[08:17] <Jangsta> ok wait 1 sec
[08:18] <Somniis> i have a geforce 5500
[08:18] <nick_> anybody know about "The module Display cannot be loaded" when i go to system settings > display
[08:18] <Jangsta> 0000:02:0a.0
[08:18] <Jangsta> ya thats it :(
[08:18] <Somniis> ok, what is the format used before you delete it?
[08:19] <Jangsta> its
[08:19] <Jangsta> PCI:0:2:0
[08:19] <Jangsta> and the cursor starts at the last :
[08:19] <myesterious> hihi
[08:19] <myesterious> hi
[08:19] <Jangsta> so i can only delete PCI:0:2
[08:19] <Somniis> PCI:2:10:0  is it then.. just delete everything and type it in
[08:19] <Jangsta> the last :0 stays there, and i just type over it
[08:19] <myesterious> hey, no any taskbar on gnome , How can i get back ?
[08:19] <Somniis> ohh
[08:19] <Somniis> probably an artifact, perhaps
[08:19] <Jangsta> hmm :|
[08:19] <Jangsta> i can backspace even PAST the PCI
[08:20] <myesterious> I can see all icon on desktop but no any taskbar.
[08:20] <Jangsta> it makes more blue space
[08:20] <Jangsta> 2 spaces back
[08:20] <Somniis> :\
[08:20] <Jangsta> if i enter PCI:2:10:0 then, it works and continues
[08:20] <Somniis> ok, well continue it and see if x will start after
[08:21] <Somniis> if you already haven't :-)
[08:21] <Jangsta> i have but i'll try again
[08:21] <Jangsta> ok, ive deleted as far back as i can go
[08:21] <Jangsta> there's nothing there
[08:21] <Jangsta> and ive entered
[08:21] <Jangsta> PCI:2:10:0
[08:21] <Jangsta> so i'll press enter and continue through
[08:22] <Somniis> yeah, hope that works lol
[08:22] <Jangsta> should i
[08:22] <Jangsta> Use kernel framebuffer device interface
[08:22] <Somniis> does it come up with the integrated chip name when it comes to that part?
[08:22] <Somniis> yeah
[08:22] <Jangsta> yes it does
[08:22] <Jangsta> the part before entering the bus id
[08:22] <Jangsta> it lists my integrated chip
[08:22] <Somniis> did you type in the 5200 name?
[08:22] <Jangsta> omg -_-
[08:22] <Jangsta> <-------- IDIOT
[08:23] <Somniis> don't think that matters, but i did it anyhow lol
[08:23] <Somniis> lol
[08:23] <Jangsta> i havnt been
[08:23] <Jangsta> wow ok
[08:23] <Jangsta> ok wtf
[08:23] <Jangsta> it just kicked me out to a black screen, like it did before and i gotta restard lol
[08:23] <Somniis> what?
[08:23] <Jangsta> it hates me
[08:23] <Somniis> hmm.
[08:23] <mikedep333> ok, I found out that some people have put kernel 2.6.18 on dapper, where can I get this?
[08:23] <Jangsta> it kicks me out to the black loading screen sometimes
[08:24] <Jangsta> that has all the [ok]
[08:24] <Jangsta> things
[08:24] <kraut> moin
[08:24] <mikedep333> !kernel
[08:24] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[08:24] <ppcguy> hey all.. friend of mine just tried to remove icewm w/ rm -fr /dir now he's getting an error that his home dir is gone.. any ideas?
[08:24] <levander> Did they drop the backports project in dapper?
[08:24] <levander> I don't see dapper-backports on packages.ubuntu.com
[08:25] <XaXXon> does ubuntu live cd 6.06 not work with ati cards?  I had an nvidia board in and it booted.. I just swapped it out for an ati board and it drops to command line
[08:25] <mikedep333> XaXXon: what ati card do you have?
[08:25] <XaXXon> 1900xt
[08:25] <zaggynl> Anyone knows a filemon like app for Ubuntu?
[08:25] <levander> XaXXon: ATI cards are commonly more difficult to configure than nVidia cards, a lot of people ahve that problem
[08:25] <XaXXon> set vbe mode failed
[08:25] <mikedep333> it might not support the x1000 series like you have
[08:26] <levander> nVidia support on Linux is better than ATI's
[08:26] <XaXXon> ok
[08:26] <XaXXon> I guess I'll swap it back in.. at least for the time being
[08:26] <XaXXon> thanks
[08:26] <mikedep333> np
[08:26] <mikedep333> I'm in a worse situation
[08:26] <XaXXon> halt
[08:26] <XaXXon> oops
[08:26] <mikedep333> linux doesnt like my motherboard yet
[08:26] <ppcguy> hey all.. friend of mine just tried to remove icewm w/ rm -fr /dir now he's getting an error that his home dir is gone.. any ideas?
[08:29] <mikedep333> hey, what is the URL for the main ubuntu repository?
[08:30] <Jangsta> omGGGGGGo
[08:30] <Jangsta> GOMFGG FG :(
[08:30] <Somniis> what?
[08:30] <Jangsta> its making me restart again
[08:30] <Jangsta> is there anyway to avoid this
[08:30] <Jangsta> im going through, just entered the busid
[08:31] <Jangsta> and it brings up this.... i dnt know what, something
[08:31] <Jangsta> i push ok
[08:31] <Somniis> i don't know.  i didn't have that problem during config :(
[08:31] <Jangsta> blar ok
[08:31] <usama> hi all
[08:31] <Somniis> sorry.   have you tried looking at the ubuntu forums for help?
[08:32] <Jangsta> well i think we may have it
[08:32] <usama> http://pastebin.com/793867 <----  kindly help me
[08:32] <Jangsta> i just forgot to enter my card before
[08:32] <Jangsta> the nVidia part
[08:32] <levander> Can someone tell me how to figure out what packages are in dapper-backports?
[08:32] <Jangsta> any reason i should start in safe graphics mode?
[08:32] <Somniis> i entered "NVIDIA GeForceFX 5500" on mine and it worked
[08:32] <Jangsta> or just go Start or install Ubuntu
[08:32] <Jangsta> yeah i forgot to do that
[08:32] <Jangsta> so i was doing that just now
[08:32] <Jangsta> before i booted me
[08:32] <Somniis> just start
[08:33] <Jangsta> so i want to get through this, nice and clean
[08:33] <Jangsta> and if it still makes that error
[08:33] <Jangsta> i'll sleep on it and do what i can tomorow
[08:33] <Somniis> not sure why it boots ya.   you can always re-install it, lol
[08:33] <Jangsta> yeah ist re-installing now
[08:33] <Jangsta> its weird because it boots me back to the black screen that has all the [ok]
[08:33] <Jangsta> then im powerless there
[08:33] <Somniis> hmm
[08:33] <ISOLATEDViRuS> when i plug stuff into my usb port, it wont show up. whats wrong?
[08:33] <Jangsta> so i restart, get back to the error
[08:34] <mikedep333> can anyone tell me what the url is for the main ubuntu mirror?
[08:34] <Jangsta> and i can then re-enter config
[08:34] <Jangsta> its re-installing now "adding live cd user"
[08:34] <mikedep333> or how to get kernel 2.6.18 on an existing ubuntu install?
[08:34] <JairunCaloth> is there anyone really good with shell scripts around?
[08:35] <butleR`> I saw a post on the forums earlier about sound only being available to one program at a time, anyone know how to fix it?
[08:35] <JairunCaloth> what driver are you using?
[08:35] <butleR`> I can't remember >.<
[08:36] <JairunCaloth> well I'm not positive
[08:36] <JairunCaloth> but I think OSS dosn't support it. but ALSA does
[08:36] <usama> http://pastebin.com/793867
[08:36] <JairunCaloth> and you can use oss through also to get it to work by using aoss
[08:36] <butleR`> i think i'm using OSS
[08:36] <JairunCaloth> if you have alsa
[08:37] <JairunCaloth> I'm just a noob though
[08:37] <JairunCaloth> so I'll probably run you in circles when the answer is staring you in the face
[08:37] <Z310N> does anyone know LFS project? do i need to be a programmer to use it? what is expected to use the LFS project?
[08:38] <w30> I can't use cups html administration (port 631) or swat html administration (port 901) because I don't have a root password. How do I fix that?
[08:38] <Jangsta> ook
[08:38] <Jangsta> cross your fingers
[08:38] <nocti> somebody on a different channel said python=ubuntu, perl=debian... how is this so?
[08:38] <Jangsta> well, umm..
[08:38] <Somniis> hope it works Jangsta lol
[08:38] <Jangsta> no error message
[08:38] <drunk_hobo> ok i did apt-get instal xubuntu-desktop, and everything still loks the same
[08:38] <JairunCaloth> w30: sounds like a user problem
[08:38] <Jangsta> lol but a blank, black screen
[08:39] <Jangsta> maybe its loading -_- :|
[08:39] <Somniis> man.  it's just not liking you at all eh?
[08:39] <JairunCaloth> you have to log into the xubuntu hobo
[08:39] <Jangsta> yah :(
[08:39] <JairunCaloth> choose the session on your login screen
[08:39] <Jangsta> let me try something
[08:39] <drunk_hobo> how?
[08:39] <Jangsta> im gunna unplug my monitor from the back of my comp
[08:39] <Jangsta> and plug it into another slot
[08:39] <grobber> can somebody help me? problem is that grub dont detect windows xp
[08:39] <Jangsta> can i do this while its running
[08:39] <JairunCaloth> should be a box that lets you choose session
[08:40] <drunk_hobo> ok let me check
[08:40] <Somniis> hmm
[08:40] <Jangsta> my card has 2 slots
[08:40] <Jangsta> right now its doing what
[08:40] <w30> JairunCaloth, Ubuntu says don't have a root password, just use sudo, however How do I use suco in a browser password window??
[08:40] <Somniis> ya, lol, i used to have a 5200
[08:40] <Jangsta> it has 2 slots so im gunna
[08:40] <Jangsta> take it out of the 1
[08:40] <w30> suco/sudo
[08:40] <Jangsta> and put it in the other
[08:40] <Jangsta> hopefully my monitor turns on
[08:40] <Somniis> might not turn on
[08:40] <JairunCaloth> w30: I have no idea...
[08:40] <Jangsta> :\
[08:40] <JairunCaloth> w30: my question is accually similar to that
[08:41] <zaggynl> Anyone knows a GUI alternative to Filemon for Windows
[08:41] <JairunCaloth> I would like to know how to use sudo in my command box on my taskbar.
[08:41] <w30> JairunCaloth, What's the problem you are faced with?
[08:42] <Z310N> can one start on LFS project with no paticular linux nor programming knowledge only learning from the official tutorial?
[08:42] <Jangsta> lol man
[08:42] <Jangsta> no error but no monitor screen! what a headache
[08:42] <JairunCaloth> I have a command box on my taskbar, but I can't use sudo from it because it dosn't prompt me for my password, seeing how it dosn't have a terminal screen
[08:43] <Madpilot> JairunCaloth, use gksudo rather than just sudo
[08:43] <JairunCaloth> what is gksudo?
[08:43] <JairunCaloth> sweet, that's exactly what I needed Madpilot, thanks
[08:44] <w30> JairunCaloth, I think there is something missing in this sudo scheme of Ubuntu and it's time to add ole' ruuooot to Ubuntu and the hell wit security. just have a good password.
[08:44] <totalnewb> hi
[08:44] <Somniis> Jangsta, if all else fails, try plugging your monitor into the integrated slot :\
[08:44] <Ademan> is there a chart anywhere of different proccessors and the instruction sets they support?
[08:44] <JairunCaloth> w30, I raelly have no idea. I still consider myself very much a linux noob
[08:44] <totalnewb> i have a very stupid question if anyone cares to answer
[08:45] <Z310N> anybody knows what it takes to start the linux from scratch project?
[08:45] <JairunCaloth> Ademan, have you checked out manufacture webpages?
[08:45] <jUggERNAUt1980> is there a way i can share my net connection through my box with an xp thing?
[08:45] <totalnewb> i upgraded to edgy from dapper, but now on my desktop there are 2 icons of each partition
[08:45] <Ademan> JairunCaloth: I'm looking for a unified chart that will make it easy to compare them
[08:45] <Madpilot> totalnewb, #ubuntu+1 for Edgy questions
[08:45] <totalnewb> thank you
[08:46] <jUggERNAUt1980> i use wifi, and want to be able to use my sys as a "router" so my friend can get online too.
[08:46] <irawan> Z310N: www.linuxfromscratch.???
[08:46] <Madpilot> Z310N, try #lfs
[08:47] <levander> Didn't there used to be a ubuntu-backports channel on freenode?
[08:47] <Z310N> irawan its a .org site
[08:47] <thenetduck> can someone help me edit the /etc/sudoers file?
[08:47] <thenetduck> I need to add a person
[08:48] <Flannel> thenetduck: You have a gui?
[08:48] <thenetduck> or a user
[08:48] <thenetduck> Flannel no im running in recover mode ..
[08:48] <levander> thenetduck: you can't just mimick the existing syntax for other users?
[08:48] <levander> thenetduck: just guess the syntax based on what's already in there
[08:48] <jUggERNAUt1980> can anyone help me with this issue?
[08:48] <levander> thenetduck: cp the file over to make a backup
[08:48] <zaggynl> Anyone knows a filemon alternative?
[08:48] <thenetduck> levander there are currently no sudoers .... i think
[08:49] <Jangsta> hey
[08:49] <Jangsta> is there any way to get to that config
[08:49] <Jangsta> without trying to install
[08:49] <levander> thenetduck: by default, ubuntu has a sudo user
[08:49] <Jangsta> like, can i open that config BEFORE i try installing
[08:49] <Somniis> i don't think so Jangsta
[08:49] <Flannel> Jangsta: which config?
[08:49] <Jangsta> damn
[08:49] <Jangsta> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:50] <thenetduck> levander ya but I somehow deleted it ... I was doing a tutorial .... http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountlinux got to the second to last command and it erased my sudo account...
[08:50] <Somniis> he's having problems getting x to start up, Flannel
[08:50] <fredzer> hi
[08:51] <Jangsta> yeah and its frustrating because
[08:51] <Flannel> Jangsta: you can grab the alternate ISO and install without a GUI, then you'll be able to edit it sans X
[08:51] <w30> thenetduck, try "man visudo"
[08:51] <Jangsta> that might be the way to go
[08:51] <Jangsta> i like the GUI :) but not this headache
[08:51] <Jangsta> when im in that config
[08:51] <maryham> hello
[08:51] <Jangsta> is there a way to go back
[08:51] <fredzer> what do i do with source files once i have downloaded em :S
[08:51] <Jangsta> to the previous optio
[08:51] <levander> thenetduck: try 'dpkg-reconfigure --config sudo' (i think you need the --config option, not sure)
[08:51] <munch0> could anybody help me out with a font problem i'm having
[08:51] <levander> thenetduck: that will rerun sudo config
[08:52] <thenetduck> great ok thanks
[08:52] <levander> munch0: on freenode, just ask your question as concisely as possibly, hopefully someone can help
[08:52] <munch0> oki
[08:52] <levander> thenetduck: that's a guess, no idea if it'll work
[08:52] <maryham> I have error 102 for samba. Need help
[08:52] <fredzer> what do i do with source files once i have downloaded them :S
[08:52] <Cyraq> hi, i'm the guy who commented negatively on ubuntu yesterday, i must state that i was talking about a 3.* version of ubuntu, and that now that i've tried version 6.*, i find that it really is a great linux distro.
[08:52] <lillpelle> Jangsta: please write the whole sentence before you hit Enter.
[08:53] <Jangsta> Somnis is there a way to go back, when you're in that config
[08:53] <Jangsta> to the previous screen
[08:53] <thenetduck> levander... here maby im trying to fix the wrong problem.... ok this is way the output says every time I try to use a sudo command  ..... sudo: must be setuid root
[08:53] <Somniis> i would hope so :-)
[08:53] <Flannel> Cyraq: 3.* was never a version, just so you know.  but glad you are having better luck with the newer ones (they're year.month, by the way, not version numbers)
[08:53] <fredzer> what do i do with source files once i have downloaded then, how do i get them to work?
[08:53] <fredzer> i have tried everything and make command doesn't exitst
[08:53] <bartmon> Hi. What's the deal with so many kernel updates? I have 2.6.15-26.47 and 2.6.15-27.48 listed as upgradeable.
[08:54] <Somniis> lol i honestly don't remember, Jangsta.  i just pressed enter all the way through except for naming the card and the pci bus.
[08:54] <Flannel> bartmon: bug fixes
[08:54] <Flannel> !tell fredzer about compile
[08:54] <munch0> i just installed some gtk2.x themes, which buggered with my font sizes, when i changed it back to my default theme it didnt change my fonts back to normal, now my font size for sans 7 is actually sans 5, but in mozilla (for the menus & bookmarks) it has sans 7 normally (not as sans 5), all the text in terminal is also really tiny, how to i fix this back to default settings, if i change my user interface font to sans 9, thats actually sans 7,
[08:55] <Cyraq> Flannel: well, it was a really old version, so i asmed it to be 3. something
[08:55] <Cyraq> so, 6.06 (current) is released june, 2006?
[08:55] <Jangsta> LOL GOD WHAT IS MY CURSE
[08:55] <Jangsta> WIAT
[08:55] <Jangsta> OMG
[08:55] <Jangsta> WE HAVE LIFTOF
[08:55] <Jangsta> LIFTOFF*
[08:55] <Somniis> ?
[08:55] <Jangsta> its working!!!!!!!!!
[08:56] <Cyraq> Flannel: do you recommend me installing ubuntu now, or do you think a new version will be released soon?
[08:56] <Somniis> very nice :-) good job
[08:56] <bartmon> Flannel: OK, so the newest kernel is definitely the way to go. But why is the old version also shown then?
[08:56] <munch0> :|
[08:56] <selinuxium> !enter > Jangsta
[08:56] <Jangsta> Somniis, that was all you
[08:56] <Jangsta> thankyou SOOOO much
[08:56] <Healot> Cyraq: current stable release
[08:56] <Jangsta> you = very inteligent + smart
[08:56] <Flannel> bartmon: shows where?
[08:56] <Jangsta> a great help
[08:56] <fredzer> ok this bot is telling me to use the make command ... when it doest exist
[08:56] <Somniis> not a problem :-)
[08:56] <bartmon> under possible updates
[08:56] <CyberFlas> Hey guys i got a quick question...today i switched to e17 but the volume buttons on my laptop dont control the volume anymore...they used to work in kde and gnome but not xfce or e17...does anyone know how to fix this
[08:56] <Flannel> fredzer: before it tells you to use the make command, it mentions you installing build-essential
[08:56] <selinuxium> Jangsta: :)
[08:57] <fredzer> ok
[08:57] <bartmon> Flannel: under possible updates
[08:57] <Flannel> bartmon: I'm not sure.  That seems odd though.
[08:58] <bartmon> Flannel: Yeah. If i view updates via the GUI Update Manager it shows 10 upgrades but via aptitude it only shows 6 upgrades.
[08:58] <CyberFlas> nobody has any ideas?
[08:59] <Flannel> bartmon: that's very odd.  You might file a bug about it.
[08:59] <bartmon> Flannel: Bah, I'm using a custom compiled kernel anyway :P
[08:59] <Jangsta> now how do i open up a editor :)
[09:00] <bartmon> nano/gedit &
[09:00] <Jangsta> like pico :)
[09:00] <Somniis> applications -> acc -> gedit
[09:00] <Flannel> Jangsta: pico isn't in ubuntu, nano is.
[09:00] <Jangsta> oh ok
[09:00] <Flannel> Jangsta: pico (and pine, for that matter) aren't Free, nano and mutt are their OS equivalents
[09:01] <fredzer> so for the make command it would be "./configure make install"
[09:01] <Jangsta> ahhh ok... thanks
[09:01] <Jangsta> how do i find nano
[09:02] <Flannel> fredzer: no, ./configure then make then make install
[09:02] <Flannel> Jangsta: just type nano, you don't need to find it
[09:02] <Jangsta> im on the GUI
[09:02] <Somniis> go in the terminal and type it
[09:02] <Jangsta> oh
[09:02] <Jangsta> gotcha
[09:02] <Somniis> :-)
[09:02] <Flannel> Jangsta: ah, you can also use gedit, but use gksudo with graphical apps, instead of normal sudo
[09:03] <fredzer> but when i type in make install it says  command no found
[09:03] <Jangsta> oh ok, thanks
[09:03] <fredzer> command not found*
[09:03] <Flannel> fredzer: then the program you downloaded doesn't have a make file, apparently.
[09:03] <bartmon> fredzer: Which command wasn't found?
[09:03] <fredzer> make
[09:04] <bartmon> See Flannel's response then
[09:04] <bartmon> No!
[09:04] <bartmon> Does this mean you don't have a compiler?
[09:04] <fredzer> a what ?
[09:04] <Flannel> fredzer: have you still not installed build-essential?
[09:04] <bartmon> Try "gcc".
[09:04] <fredzer> ok
[09:05] <Flannel> bartmon: I believe the make-sans-BE error is 'cannot create executables'
[09:05] <CyberFlas> does anybody know how to get volume control buttons to work in different wm's?
[09:06] <Flannel> CyberFlas: you'll have to ask e17 people regarding enlightenment
[09:06] <Cyraq> i have a qeustion: where does canonical get all the money to ship all those cd's from a free linux distro?
[09:06] <fredzer> but that comes in source format too
[09:07] <Flannel> Cyraq: Mark Shuttleworth
[09:07] <Cyraq> mark shuttleworth?
[09:07] <MTecknology> DBO, I NEED YOU!!!
[09:08] <bartmon> Cyraq: Founder of Canonical :)
[09:08] <Cyraq> oh
[09:08] <Cyraq> and where does he get all that money ?:)
[09:08] <jUggERNAUt1980> can anybody help me find the drivers for an atheros 5212 wifi card?
[09:08] <bartmon> !shuttleworth
[09:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shuttleworth - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:08] <CyberFlas> Flannel: k, thx
[09:09] <Jangsta> ok want to thank you all for the help, i gotta get to class.. this is an awsome pace

[09:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shippit - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:10] <Locke> so anyone have any suggestions for fixing synaptic

[09:10] <fredzer> i type in my e-mail and nothing happens
[09:10] <Locke> says it cant copy my Xauthority file
[09:10] <Flannel> Locke: you've used sudo with graphical apps before? (as opposed to gksudo?)
[09:11] <Locke> Flannel, yeah, tons of times
[09:11] <Locke> only has happened since right before i upgraded the whole thing
[09:11] <Flannel> Locke: right, that's why.  use gksudo isntead, you'll need to chown your .Xauth fle back to you
[09:11] <Locke> switched mobo, processor, ram
[09:11] <Locke> so gksudo synaptic?

[09:12] <bartmon> Argh, I hate upgrading official kernels in Ubuntu! :( ATM I have 2 kernels, one custom compiled and another which is official. Now I have the option to upgrade the official one (2.6.15-26) and install another official kernel (2.6.15-27).
[09:13] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> people
[09:13] <munch0> does anybody know how to fix font sizes?
[09:13] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> i m having a really strange experience with ubuntu
[09:13] <Somniis> please elaborate, Punjabi :-)
[09:13] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> Somniis: i feel that my MP3s are more clear than in windows
[09:13] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> is it me or is it for real?
[09:14] <Flannel> Locke: chown it back to you, from root.  We had a factoid.. I suppose its gone now
[09:14] <lastnode_> PunjabiFLOYDIAN, that's wierd, a friend said that too
[09:14] <Yasuo> hi, i have installed ubuntu dapper amd64, i have no pictures in openoffice :/
[09:14] <bartmon> PunjabiFLOYDIAN: mOST LIKELY AN EQUALIZER EFFECT
[09:14] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> lastnote_: still!
[09:14] <lastnode_> maybe the lip
[09:14] <bartmon> Whoops, sorry for Caps
[09:14] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> bartmon: but still. the voice looks like 7.1 channel
[09:14] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> on windows it sucked
[09:14] <Somniis> windows sucks in general when you switch to ubuntu :-)
[09:15] <bartmon> PunjabiFLOYDIAN: So which applications do you use for playback in both Oss?
[09:15] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> Somniis: seriously. i earlier used to dual boot. now i removed windows
[09:15] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> bartmon: using XMMS in ubuntu. and used Winamp in Windows. I swear
[09:15] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> the sound clarity is really realy better
[09:15] <jUggERNAUt1980> Somniis, i totally agree with you!!
[09:15] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> i m hearing sounds never heard before. LMAO
[09:15] <Yasuo> .
[09:15] <tengil> how do i get my internal boxes to ident correctly with oidentd? at the moment they wont ident at all and i resolved that with adding -r myident when starting oidentd, but i dont want it to have the same ident for everything
[09:16] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> is it really possible?
[09:16] <bartmon> PunjabiFLOYDIAN: Have you tried any other programs for playback, like totem?
[09:16] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> bartmon: tried. but it was not playing MP3s.
[09:16] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> had it been possible, i would have shown u the difference
[09:16] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> even my mom says so. LOL.
[09:16] <bartmon> that's weird, my totem plays mp3s
[09:17] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> LOL
[09:17] <Madpilot> PunjabiFLOYDIAN, you know that Ubuntu doesn't play mp3 out of the box, right?
[09:17] <bartmon> I dunno what to say, enjoy it! :D
[09:17] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> Madpilot: i dont have totem. i use XMMS.

[09:27] <apeman2020> it only shows the existing 30 g drive
[09:27] <Yasuo> bartmon apeman2020: then try "sudo fdisk /dev/hdaX" <<< ???

[09:35] <barata> I have the source actually, but wanna do apt-get
[09:35] <barata> well, it's astrolog! let's try now
[09:35] <barata> yes, Ubuntu has it ... the name is 'astrolog'
[09:36] <barata> app-get install astrolog
[09:36] <barata> you like/use astrology, it's a very powerful software
[09:37] <TLE> Yasuo: Calm down, it usually does, the only thing I have ever really heard people complain about is that it loads to slow. But if you want help getting it fixed you'll need to explain what the problem is
[09:38] <apeman2020> once done editing using view, how do you save and quit?
[09:40] <Yasuo> TLE, hi, it sems my questions somehow got overflooded with the common chat here. I have no pictures in my openoffice-documents

[09:45] <chamunks> Hello room
[09:45] <chamunks> anyone alive??
[09:45] <TLE> Yasuo: I happens, people here are volenteers (or however that's spelled). I don't know anything about OO but just ask your question and specify et as presicely as you can. People aren't ignored, it's the common use that if no-one answers it's because they don't know, otherwise the channel would be flodded with "No idea" "I don't know" kind of replies. Sooo ask you question, if no-one asnwers ask again at a later time where perhaps the usergroup has changed. An
[09:46] <apeman2020> what is the APT package for kubuntu?
[09:47] <irawan> apeman2020: kpackage?
[09:47] <chamunks> im wondering howcome my cd drive only recognizes that the ubuntu cd has any files on it and all other cd's i insert appear to be blank cd's
[09:48] <TeePOG> lol chamunks, it's vendor lock-in...
[09:48] <cafuego> apeman2020: 'kubuntu-desktop'
[09:49] <tengil> how do i get oidentd setup so my internal boxes will get an ident too?
[09:50] <chamunks> maybe so but i have inserted other disks that are not commercial??
[09:51] <ringerc> Hi folks. Hoping for a bit of help ... gdm on Ubuntu doesn't seem to authenticate users correctly over LDAP with a suitable libpam-ldap/libnss-ldap setup, though sshd, xdm, etc do. My gdm config and ldap config are equivalent to what works prefectly on my existing Debian 3.1 servers.
[09:51] <ringerc> Ideas?
[09:52] <zaggynl> can you check if the use zaggynl does exist?
[09:52] <zaggynl> I can't login anymore
[09:53] <ajmitch> ringerc: errors in logs? restarted gdm properly?
[09:53] <zaggynl> oops wrong channel
[09:53] <ringerc> ajmitch: Yes, gdm was restarted. No, no errors in the logs. The tcpdump suggests it's not querying the LDAP server for the user at all IIRC - it was a few days since I looked at that.
[09:54] <ajmitch> is nscd running?
[09:54] <ringerc> ajmitch: ... and since gdm uses pam, if LDAP auth works for sshd, xdm, etc it should work for gdm too
[09:54] <ajmitch> yes, but I've seen gdm cache stuff & magically start working
[09:54] <ringerc> nope
[09:54] <ajmitch> which was very annoying when I tried setting things up
[09:54] <ringerc> interesting
[09:55] <ringerc> I don't use nscd on any of my other servers, but might give it a try just in case it works around anything odd that gdm might be doing
[09:55] <cafuego> gdm? broken? whatcha talking about, ajmitch? are you on crack? ;-)
[09:55] <ajmitch> cafuego: quiet you
[09:55] <ringerc> hehe
[09:55] <apeman2020> how do i tell ubuntu which nic to use?
[09:55] <ringerc> To be honest I'm only trying to get it working so I can see if it still has the bug where it just zombies out after a few days of uptime when it's used as an XDMCP terminal server
[09:56] <ringerc> I'll probably stick to ugly-but-reliable XDM for production; I'm interested in this as much as anything to determine if this is in fact a bug and report it as such if it is.
[09:56] <ringerc> apeman2020: It should be able to use *all* your NICs. Do you want to disable all but one?
[09:56] <hayden> apeman2020, if you have a GUI and using gnome go to System->Administration->Networking and you can activate or deactivate a nic
[09:56] <ringerc> apeman2020: or perhaps use a particular one for an Internet service like PPPoE ?
[09:56] <butleR`> anyone here have any experience running ventrilo through wine?
[09:57] <apeman2020> no gui..
[09:57] <apeman2020> ringerc: no gui, command line
[09:57] <ringerc> ajmitch: thanks for the tip re nscd btw, I hadn't considered that ... and I wasn't aware gdm did dodgy auth caching stuff internally either.
[09:57] <hayden> apeman2020, you'll have to edit /etc/network/interfaces
[09:57] <apeman2020> i think i need to set it up..
[09:57] <chamunks> ok so anyone have any ideas on how i could possibly diagnose why my dvdram drive wont read my cd
[09:57] <ringerc> chamunks: Anything in `dmesg' or the kernel logs?
[09:58] <chamunks> im not sure where i would find that info
[09:58] <apeman2020> hayden: unknown mime type
[09:58] <chamunks> ringerc pm me
[09:58] <chamunks> pls
[09:58] <hayden> apeman2020, when do you get that msg?
[09:59] <butleR`> Can anyone explain failed to create directinput object for monitoring press to talk for ventrilo?
[09:59] <apeman2020> using edit /etc
[09:59] <apeman2020> i just used vim
[09:59] <apeman2020> no worries
[09:59] <apeman2020> so
[09:59] <apeman2020> how can i see what nics i have?
[09:59] <ringerc> ifconfig -a
[10:00] <ringerc> or `ip link show'
[10:00] <sanek> how can i play mp3 and avi?
[10:01] <ringerc> sanek: See the FAQ in the topic
[10:02] <treedreamer> sanek,just install "Listen"
[10:02] <tonyyarusso> What's a nic called sit0?
[10:02] <ringerc> tonyyarusso: tunneling device; it's a virtual interface
[10:02] <tonyyarusso> ringerc: What for?  It hasn't been there before that I've noticed.
[10:03] <apeman2020> ringerc: how do i edit the interfaces?
[10:03] <MrNaz> not sure if this is the right place to ask this: when i view the page in firefox under linux, the iframe causes the "Save As" dialog to pop up to save the file... is there a PDF viewer that can spawn within a web browser under linux?
[10:03] <ringerc> Did you use "ifconfig -a" or "ifconfig"? If the former, you probably use only the latter normally, which only shows interfaces that are up.
[10:03] <ringerc> tonyyarusso: You do not need to worry about sit0 on most systems, just ignore it.
[10:04] <chamunks> k sorry for my noobishness i got the dmesg umm what would i be looking for in particular??
[10:04] <apeman2020> ringerc: ifconfig -a
[10:04] <ringerc> apeman2020: /etc/network/interfaces ; man interfaces
[10:04] <tonyyarusso> All right
[10:05] <ringerc> It's important to understand that /etc/network/interfaces controls how interfaces are bought up and down; ifconfig and friends control only their current state. Changes you make using ifconfig etc are cleared on reboot.
[10:05] <|thunder> where can I download the 6.06.1(or whatever) ISO ?  All I can find is regular 6.06
[10:06] <apeman2020> ringerc: i am using  view /etc/network/interfaces
[10:07] <Madpilot> |thunder, http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06.1/
[10:07] <ringerc> apeman2020: OK... well, to change how Ubuntu will set up the network on boot, you modify that file according to the documentation in "man interfaces", then restart the networking services (in /etc/init.d/ )
[10:08] <|thunder> Madpilot; thanks alot
[10:08] <apeman2020> ringerc: if i want to define dhcp as opposed to static i would say
[10:08] <apeman2020> iface eth? inet dhcp?
[10:08] <ringerc> apeman2020: "man interfaces"
[10:08] <apeman2020> thanks
[10:08] <ringerc> ;-)
[10:09] <Ackeubu_> hey, i have an issue with evolution password. It does not remember even if im marking remember password every time i use password. and remember password is marked in preferences.
[10:10] <EXED> Hi there, Im new to all this IRC thing, do I just type my problem here? or somthing like that?
[10:10] <Ackeubu_> EXED read the manual
[10:10] <Ackeubu_> EXED, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage
[10:10] <EXED> ok....which is ..where?
[10:10] <EXED> oh thx
[10:10] <sanek> how can i install Midnight Commander???
[10:11] <Ackeubu_> sudo apt-get install mc
[10:11] <Ackeubu_> ?
[10:11] <cafuego> yes
[10:11] <sanek> kk
[10:12] <sanek> Can't find mc :((
[10:12] <cobbweb_> can anyone help me please??? I need someone to work with me that understands I don't know a whole lot ...
[10:13] <Ackeubu_> cobbweb_: what do you you need help with?
[10:13] <|thunder> sanek; try this 'apt-cache search midnight'  is it in the list ?
[10:14] <cobbweb_> Ackeubu_ :) thanks, I was following this tutorialhttp://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountlinux and got to the second to last line....
[10:14] <cobbweb_> then my computer thought for a while then when i tried to do the last line for that tutorial
[10:14] <cobbweb_> it gives me this error message
[10:15] <cobbweb_> Ackeubu_ on second... trying to get that message again ...
[10:15] <cobbweb_> Ackeubu_ well it won't let me use the sudo command
[10:15] <cobbweb_> Ackeubu_ and now I can't even open programs .... aah..
[10:16] <cobbweb_> i dont know what to do ...
[10:16] <cobbweb_> cant open programs, cant use sudo
[10:16] <cobbweb_> says i have to log into "root"
[10:17] <chamunks> wow the people in here have ALLOT of patients
[10:17] <user42> yes root is the administrator account, your user account does not have administrator privelages... apparently..
[10:18] <chamunks> you all have allot of my respect for it 2 any ways im going to see if i can find another way to get these darn files off the disk here ciao
[10:19] <cobbweb_> man I don't think Linux is for me ...
[10:19] <teckfatt> hello, anyone know any good software to convert AVI to mpeg (video compression formats)???
[10:19] <user42> if you are using ubuntu and have just installed, the way I have found to set the root password... is to boot into recovery mode which drops you into a root login point... or if you have not yet set a root password logs you in as root... at which point you may then set a root password using the root command... is there a better way to do that? initially set the root password I mean..
[10:19] <user42> erm... the passwd command... not the root command.. heh
[10:19] <ringerc> teckfatt: mencoder? transcode?
[10:19] <ringerc> teckfatt: Both useful, but with *AWFUL* user interfaces
[10:19] <Chousuke> user42: There is no need to set the root password on Ubuntu
[10:19] <user42> say I wish to set a root passwd...
[10:20] <Chousuke> user42: however, if you really want to, sudo passwd does the trick
[10:20] <ringerc> teckfatt: ... and that's coming from someone who works on the cmdline almost always
[10:20] <Chousuke> it's not recommended though.
[10:20] <user42> ahah... thanks Chousuke... :)
[10:20] <cobbweb_> Chousuke I cant type sudo in though
[10:20] <cobbweb_> it doesn't let me
[10:20] <Chousuke> hmm?
[10:20] <cobbweb_> every time I type sudo in it tells me that i have to be root to use that command
[10:20] <user42> having used linux for ten years... it would be nice to use it in a way that is recognizable to how it used to be...
[10:20] <Ackeubu_> cobbweb_: you might want to logg into recoverymode as user42 said
[10:20] <teckfatt> ringerc: thank you so much.....i have a look on both software now
[10:20] <user42> more and more "userfriendly" all the time
[10:21] <Chousuke> cobbweb_: er
[10:21] <Tomcat_> user42: It's better from a security standpoint as well.
[10:21] <Chousuke> cobbweb_: that doesn't sound right.
[10:21] <cobbweb_> It's that stupid tutorials fault located here
[10:21] <apeman2020> cobbweb: type sudo -i
[10:21] <cobbweb_> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountlinux
[10:21] <Chousuke> However, I really have to hurry away now. See you later.
[10:22] <cobbweb_> apeman2020 ok one second I need to reboot :)
[10:22] <apeman2020> cobbweb_: k!
[10:23] <zaggynl> anyone knows an ubuntu or debian package for glsof?
[10:24] <cobbweb_> apeman2020 ok it says sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 077, should be 0440
[10:24] <cobbweb_> 0775*
[10:24] <jUggERNAUt1980> i tried setting my box up so i could share my connection with my friend who brought his win2000 system over, and followed the instructions on a howto page, but it didn't work.  i did something wrong, but don't know what it is.  can someone help me out with a solution?
[10:25] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: Which page would be useful to know...
[10:25] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: and were you trying to use his win2k system as the gateway, or your Ubuntu box?
[10:25] <apeman2020> does anyone in here have experience setting up VHOSTS in apache2?
[10:26] <cobbweb_> apeman2020 I can't even use sudo on my root account ...errrrr
[10:26] <jUggERNAUt1980> ringerc, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-91370.html
[10:26] <jUggERNAUt1980> ringerc, i was trying to use my box as the gateway.
[10:26] <apeman2020> cobbweb_:  if you are logged in as root, then you dont need ;)
[10:26] <cobbweb_> apeman2020 oh... it gives me that same error message if i type just sudo in to ......
[10:27] <jUggERNAUt1980> i connect to my downstairs neighbor's router via wifi, tho.  would that matter?
[10:27] <apeman2020> try su
[10:27] <hantu> apeman2020: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocalhostSubdomain
[10:27] <ringerc> apeman2020: If it's like the configuration in Debian (I don't use Ubuntu in production yet) you just create a file in /etc/apache2/sites-available that declares the vhost
[10:27] <cobbweb_> so i guess i need to change it to be 0440 ??/ apeman2020
[10:27] <ringerc> apeman2020: then link it to sites-enabled . the vhost is pretty ordinary apache config; see the NameVirtualHost and <VirtualHost /> directives in the documentation.
[10:28] <apeman2020> ringerc: in the default? or a new file?
[10:28] <cobbweb_> does anyone know how to change /etc/sudoers from mode 0755 to mode 0440 ????
[10:28] <ringerc> apeman2020: If you create a new file you can enable and disable various vhosts separately
[10:28] <apeman2020> ringerc: thanks
[10:28] <cobbweb_> I dont know how and would love to learn very very quickly :)
[10:28] <ringerc> apeman2020: but in the end, they're effectively just cat'd into one big config file as far as Apache is converned anyway
[10:28] <ringerc> s/converned/concerned/g
[10:28] <apeman2020> cobbweb_:  chmod 440 /etc/sudoers
[10:29] <cobbweb_> :) thanks
[10:29] <apeman2020> ringerc: i had some serious trouble with this last night
[10:29] <ringerc> apeman2020: How so? Just the weird config layout debian/ubuntu use? Or with the apache config its self?
[10:29] <apeman2020> ringerc: rocked my whole server.. took everything down.. you can lead a horse to water...
[10:29] <ringerc> yikes ... nfi how that could happen
[10:30] <ringerc> ooooh.... unless you set up an include loop in the apache config files and it ate all available file descriptors
[10:30] <apeman2020> ringerc: i wasnt sure which file to edit, i originally edited the default inside of sites-available, then i edited the apache2.conf
[10:30] <ringerc> (I've seen that happen - it seems apache's config file includes don't limit recursion)
[10:30] <apeman2020> ringerc:  i had to route mail.thecleverdog.com to <IP_ADDRESS>:8000
[10:31] <apeman2020> didnt work.. blew everything up!
[10:31] <ringerc> er... you can't control the port the client connects on with vhosts, only what port Apache listens to. Were you trying to use iptables to do port redirection too?
[10:32] <apeman2020> ringerc: i was trying anything.
[10:32] <apeman2020> ringerc: maybe ill lean on you when i get to that point..
[10:33] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: ... and were you trying to share your connection with your friend using a wired network card between the two machines, routing through a wifi card in your machine to the neighbour's (!!bad!!) wifi? What's your network layout?
[10:33] <ringerc> apeman2020: Actually, your chances of doing so are't great - I'm almost never in #ubuntu and probably won't be here too much longer. Just stuck at work waiting for a part that's late from a supplier...
[10:34] <apeman2020> ringerc:  ill contact you through the multiverse in that case ;)
[10:35] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: Also, I'd be very surprised if Ubuntu doesn't have a GUI option to enable routing in their GUI network config tool. Maybe someone who uses Ubuntu's GUI sysadmin stuff will know?
[10:35] <ringerc> apeman2020: omigod, I have a multi-dimensional stalker ! *runs away*
[10:35] <TeePOG> to be sure ringerc... I use Guarddog firewall, and Guidedog to setup port forwarding and routing
[10:36] <EXED> ok, so, I read the manual and didnt find a solution to my problem, do I post it here?
[10:37] <Ackeubu_> with 'apt-cache search apps' I can find apps to install. can i find out which repository apps belongs too?
[10:38] <rbrtoclto> I have to do an /etc/init.d/networking restart every time I boot to get wireless up
[10:39] <rbrtoclto> the entry in my /etc/networking/defaults is
[10:39] <jUggERNAUt1980> ringerc, my network layout?  i'm not sure what you mean by that.
[10:39] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: What's plugged into what
[10:39] <jUggERNAUt1980> ringerc, i unplugged his system from mine, and i don't really know the specs of the router
[10:39] <rbrtoclto> iface eth1 inet dhcp
[10:39] <rbrtoclto> wpa-driver wext
[10:40] <rbrtoclto> wpa-config /home/robertw/.wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
[10:40] <rbrtoclto> auto eth1
[10:40] <rbrtoclto> when I do /etc/init.d/networking restart it works fine
[10:40] <jUggERNAUt1980> ringerc, i had his sys connected to my lappy box with a crosover cable.
[10:41] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> people
[10:41] <rbrtoclto> no other interfaces are configured
[10:41] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> tell me
[10:41] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> how to modify the startup message
[10:41] <jUggERNAUt1980> ringerc, my lappy is connected to a wifi network.
[10:42] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: ok - so a pretty simple NAT setup. No reason it shouldn't work. What interfaces did you specify when runing the masquerade command in that doc/
[10:42] <ringerc> ?
[10:43] <apeman2020> ringerc: how do i start x?
[10:43] <apeman2020> man.. problems with this distro!
[10:43] <jUggERNAUt1980> i specified the wifi interface
[10:43] <ringerc> apeman2020: "startx" for a one-off. Otherwise use /etc/init.d/gdm start (or whatever your preferred display manager is)
[10:43] <jUggERNAUt1980> ringerc, i specified the wifi interface
[10:44] <admin_> !upgrade
[10:44] <ubotu> Upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:44] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: Honestly, I fail to see why they suggest using dnsmasq and ipmasq.... there's nothing wrong with a simple IP forward rule. Try getting rid of those two packages then:
[10:44] <admin_> !upgrade
[10:44] <kippi> hey
[10:45] <rbrtoclto> why do I have to restart networking every time I boot to get my wireless link up?
[10:45] <apeman2020> ringerc:  nothing..
[10:45] <kippi> when I am installing a package, how can I get it to build all the dependencies to?
[10:48] <rbrtoclto> anyone?
[10:48] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ${wifi-interface} -j MASQUERADE
[10:49] <earthian> hello
[10:49] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: iptables -I FORWARD 1 -o ${wifi-interface} -j ACCEPT
[10:49] <earthian> how do i turn on my swap partition automatically each time linux start?
[10:49] <ringerc> jUggERNAUt1980: iptables -I FORWARD 1 -i ${wifi-interface} -j ACCEPT
[10:50] <earthian> now it seems that i turn it on and next time i boot i get no swap again :(
[10:50] <earthian> now i am out of memory
[10:51] <apeman2020> ringerc: weird.. x is not installed?
[10:51] <rbrtoclto> ringerc: have you looked at firestarter?
[10:51] <rbrtoclto> I agree ubuntu needs a sane and easily configurable firewall in place by default
[10:52] <rbrtoclto> I don't buy the "but we don't run any services" argument
[10:53] <jUggERNAUt1980> ringerc, should i use apt-get remove or apt-get --purge remove?
[10:53] <visik7> jUggERNAUt1980: depend if you want to remove conf files or not
[10:54] <rbrtoclto> earth: does your fstab have an entry for swap?
 == swap
[10:55] <jUggERNAUt1980> visik7, i don't know.  i want to remove dnsmasq and ipmasq
[10:55] <jUggERNAUt1980> visik7, would i want to remove those conf files?
[10:55] <visik7> remove -> remove only the files that aren't config files
[10:56] <wols_> jUggERNAUt1980: doesn't matter
[10:56] <rbrtoclto> does anyone use wpa supplicant here?
[10:56] <jUggERNAUt1980> wols_, what would be an instance where i would want to remove those files?
[10:56] <wols_> when you want to reinstall with fresh config since you bungled it for example
[10:57] <jUggERNAUt1980> then this would be an instance like that then?
[11:00] <saintsjd> I would like to hold all print jobs on a cups printer until they are approved by an administrator.  I have tried:
[11:00] <saintsjd> sudo lpadmin -p S200 -o job-hold-until-default=indefinite
[11:00] <saintsjd> but this doesn't seem to affect the printer's behavior. It is still printing all jobs on demand.  Any ideas?

[11:11] <TeePOG> no DaRE, you're imagining us... go away ^.^
[11:11] <TeePOG> j/k
[11:11] <DaRE> ah
[11:12] <DaRE> teepog i guess your a nighthawk or non usa ?
[11:13] <TeePOG> well DaRE, from my perspective you're either a nightowl, or not in South Africa
[11:13] <DaRE> ah
[11:13] <DaRE> yea i dont sleep very well
[11:13] <DaRE> i barely get 2 or 3 hours
[11:13] <TeePOG> i know how you feel
[11:13] <DaRE> anyways i was wondering if you or someone else here could help me with a situation i have
[11:14] <TeePOG> i hope so... i'm not that great myself, but i'll try
[11:14] <DaRE> you see, i lost xp with a bad hdd, got a new hdd, installed ubuntu (lost xp key), and now i found it im upgradeing to vista, how would i go about installing vista
[11:14] <DaRE> i want to duel boot
[11:15] <TeePOG> DaRE: get another HDD, install Vista, connect Ubuntu HDD, setup grub for dual-boot
[11:15] <DaRE> why another hdd?
[11:15] <DaRE> i cant get another hdd
[11:15] <DaRE> i want to duel boot on same hdd
[11:15] <DaRE> it's a big hdd
[11:16] <DaRE> i cant partition? ive seen people talking about 2oses on 1 hdd
[11:16] <DaRE> how would i go about setting up grub?
[11:18] <opiskelija> I have one Ubuntu-based server (authentication via LDAP, home dirs etc.) and multiple client machines (Xubuntu). I already have the authentication (LDAP) working, but I need advice on which protocol I should use (and possibly how) to mount the home share on the machines. The network is not entirely trusted, so any student computer shouldn't be able to access the dir without authentication.
[11:18] <wols> DaRE: man grub-install
[11:18] <wthww-pmg4> all
[11:18] <wthww-pmg4> heh
[11:18] <wthww-pmg4> hey all
[11:18] <emrah> hi all
[11:18] <DaRE> grub install
[11:18] <someusernoob> DaRE: i dont liek to say it, but Vista (or windows) doesnt really want you to dualboot, so you'll lose grub anyway. What is your partition lay out now?
[11:19] <DaRE> it's just ubuntu
[11:19] <wthww-pmg4> i have a question about the ATI drivers, is there a port of those to Ubuntu/MacPPC?
[11:19] <DaRE> and i want to duel boot vista
[11:19] <DaRE> i think i can, because vista will let you install on partiton
[11:19] <someusernoob> DaRE: so you have a ext3 (ubuntu) partition and a swap partition?
[11:19] <DaRE> yes sir
[11:20] <someusernoob> DaRE: install gparted from the repo's, and create a new NTFS partition with it.
[11:20] <DaRE> alright
[11:20] <jo_e> hi, i'm trying to set up dual monitors using an nvidia geforce (agp) and an old s3 trio (pci). is there any easy way to do this? i tried editing my xorg.conf but had to use a livecd to replace it with a backup because when x started both screens stayed blank.
[11:20] <cbx33> is there a nice easy way to debug nfs mounts?
[11:21] <someusernoob> DaRE: then install Vista on that partition, it will remove grub, since Vista uses his own boot record, but dont worry, you can recover grub, and add Vista to it
[11:21] <DaRE> how would i do that sir
[11:21] <someusernoob> DaRE: on the internet you can find a lot of ways to recover grub
[11:21] <kippi> hey
[11:21] <DaRE> hmm
[11:22] <DaRE> okay so i boot vista?
[11:22] <DaRE> go onto I/e find out how to recover grub then install it?
[11:22] <cbx33> I'm getting a permission denied message?
[11:22] <kippi> can someone help me with all the dependencies errors I am getting?
[11:22] <DaRE> will it auto-add ubuntu?
[11:22] <DaRE> and how would i add vista manuely?
[11:23] <TeePOG> !grub
[11:23] <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
[11:23] <TeePOG> that's the best starting point
[11:23] <DaRE> thank you very much
[11:23] <someusernoob> DaRE: as far as i know, if you reinstall grub on your ubuntu partition, it will automaticly add ubuntu, and also vista, but im not sure of that last one, but you can manually add to the grub's menu.lst, but you have to install grub before you can do that
[11:24] <DaRE> if it auto-adds vista then i wont have manuely do it :)
[11:24] <user42> !osdl
[11:25] <someusernoob> DaRE: yep, but im not 100% sure it adds it automaticly, ive never installed windows after ubuntu, i only installed ubuntu and removed windows :D
[11:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about osdl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:25] <DaRE> hehe
[11:25] <DaRE> thanks for your help
[11:25] <DaRE> ill be in here again if i have problems :)
[11:25] <someusernoob> DaRE: ok, good luck!
[11:26] <fredrin> Hmm, I got a strange problem. I've change the hostname on my box in the files, 'hostname' and 'hosts' but now sudo wont work any more. I get this message: "sudo: unable to lookup bender via gethostbyname()" I only got ssh connection into the box.
[11:26] <user42> editing grub menus is fairly straight forward.
[11:26] <DaRE> oh, how do i partition it?
[11:26] <fredrin> now I can't edit the hostname file any more, since sudo is not working, I can't reboot the server either
[11:26] <DaRE> do i have to go onto a boot cd or something
[11:26] <DaRE> says it's mounted
[11:26] <DaRE> just unmount?
[11:27] <someusernoob> DaRE:ow yes, in case the drive is mounted you have to partition it from the live cd, it has an installer in the system menu
[11:27] <wols> DaRE: do you have free room on that harddisk or is all of it already partitioned for ubuntu?
[11:28] <someusernoob> DaRE: or if you are more experienced with linux, you can partition with the alternate cd too, but it is more complicated then doing it with the live cd
[11:28] <DaRE> it's all partitoned to ubuntu
[11:28] <DaRE> and the live CD sucks!
[11:28] <someusernoob> DaRE: with installer i meant gparted in the system menu...it is early :)
[11:28] <wols> DaRE: then you need to resize partition(s) for which you need to boot a liveCD. simply making new partitions could be done in ubuntu itself
[11:29] <DaRE> alright

[11:48] <furiousgeorge> Hey, quick question (Hopefully): How do I get DapperDrake to install on a software raid1 array? I got the array formatted and ready to go, but the installation wizard can't seem to find the partitions on the array...
[11:49] <mneptok> furiousgeorge: if it's software raid, what software is doing the raid?
[11:49] <mneptok> and is that software running under the Ubuntu installer? (highly unlikely)
[11:49] <furiousgeorge> I use sil drivers in windows, but the dmraid program I used to set it up is using pdc
[11:50] <furiousgeorge> Ummm I added it to the system using apt-get
[11:50] <mneptok> it may come as a shock that Ubuntu is not going to use Windows drivers. ;)
[11:51] <furiousgeorge> I know that mneptok
[11:51] <stefg> ;-)
[11:51] <furiousgeorge> Its using the pdc stuff not the sil windows drivers
[11:51] <tomcatt> !kxdocker
[11:51] <Flannel> furiousgeorge: you need to get the alternate ISO to install with LVM stuff
[11:51] <ubotu> kxdocker: innovative docker for KDE that is like Mac OSX Docker. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.39-0ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 253 kB, installed size 832 kB
[11:51] <stefg> !lvm
[11:51] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[11:52] <furiousgeorge> you got a link to that stuff Flannel?
[11:52] <Flannel> furiousgeorge: ubuntu.com/download
[11:52] <furiousgeorge> Thx
[11:53] <furiousgeorge> I'll give it a whirl
[11:53] <Flannel> furiousgeorge: just download the alternate ISO instead of the Desktop one
[11:53] <stefg> !download

[11:58] <nickjhfjd> hello everybody
[11:59] <wickedpuppy> hello
[12:01] <jUggERNAUt1980> anybody recommend a good p2p program?
[12:01] <CheekyBoinc> azureus - BitTorrent
[12:02] <jUggERNAUt1980> azureus?
[12:02] <salim> hi
[12:03] <CheekyBoinc> http://azureus.sourceforge.net/  :)
[12:03] <salim> I've a problem, I cant extract .bz files
[12:03] <sanek> how can i change encoding ?
[12:03] <jUggERNAUt1980> i used to use shareaza in windows.  is that something like azureus?
[12:03] <nickjhfjd> hey where's everyone from in here
[12:03] <unfknblvbl> jUggERNAUt1980: no
[12:03] <jUggERNAUt1980> unfknblvbl, what would you recommend?
[12:03] <mneptok> salim: bunzip2 path/to/file.name.bz2 ?
[12:03] <Hagbarddenstore> I have the Ubuntu and the Kubuntu cd... Can I do an alternate install from them or do I need the Alternate cd?
[12:03] <jUggERNAUt1980> unfknblvbl, i have fristwire, but i don't think i like it.
[12:04] <salim> no it is a bz file, not a bz2, when I use bz2 it says it is not a bz2 file
[12:04] <mneptok> Hagbarddenstore: you need the alternate CD
[12:04] <unfknblvbl> jUggERNAUt1980: i'm not sure
[12:04] <unfknblvbl> all i know is that they are not the sma
[12:04] <Hagbarddenstore> mneptok: Hmm...
[12:04] <unfknblvbl> same**
[12:04] <mneptok> salim: Bunzip2 should handle .bz files
[12:04] <salim> but it cant
[12:04] <mneptok> salim: maybe it's not really a BZip archive?
[12:04] <salim> what is it then?
[12:05] <salim> others can unpack it
[12:05] <salim> it is the same file
[12:05] <mneptok> what "others?"
[12:05] <salim> I tried KDE's ARK, but it says, that it cant find "bunzip" in my PATH
[12:05] <salim> friends
[12:06] <mneptok> Ubuntu ships with bunzip2, not bunzip
[12:06] <mneptok> have you tried from the comamnd line (as i suggested above?)
[12:06] <mildrew> hi, I'm suddenly having problems with Firefox over the last few days.  It keeps spontaneously disappearing.
[12:06] <frogzoo> salim: what does 'file *.bz' say ?
[12:06] <mildrew> and i loose everything, which is really frustrating
[12:06] <Hagbarddenstore> Ok... Going to reinstall Ubuntu... It's main task is Apache with more than one user... How much should / be on? would 5GB be enough?
[12:06] <salim> it says it is an ASCII file
[12:07] <salim> but it is an ASCII file being "zipped"
[12:07] <stefg> mildrew: can you reproduce this with a fresh profile? Might be an extension that went haywire
[12:07] <apeman2020> how do i reconfigure x?
[12:07] <wols> Hagbarddenstore: overkill
[12:07] <mneptok> Hagbarddenstore: what separate partitions do you have? /home? /usr? /var?
[12:07] <frogzoo> salim: I kind of doubt it's a bzip file then
[12:07] <Hagbarddenstore> mneptok: Just /home separate...
[12:07] <mneptok> apeman2020: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:08] <salim> but why can others unpack it
[12:08] <mneptok> Hagbarddenstore: you'll want 7.5GB minimum for / then
[12:08] <Hagbarddenstore> mneptok: Ok... Why so much?
[12:08] <mneptok> Hagbarddenstore: log files. apt cache. headroom.
[12:08] <apeman2020> mneptok: which driver should I use?
[12:08] <Hagbarddenstore> mneptok: kk
[12:08] <mildrew> ok, i'll try to manage without my extensions for a while
[12:09] <stefg> 4 -5 Gigs are enough for a vanilla dapper, if you keep your /home elsewhere
[12:09] <mneptok> apeman2020: do i spin the roulette wheel or do you tell me what video card you actually have?
[12:09] <salim> maybe you could tell me where I can find the "bunzip" command?
[12:09] <frogzoo> salim: 'which bunzip2'
[12:09] <mneptok> salim: you use bunzip2
[12:09] <apeman2020> nvidia fx5700 le
[12:09] <salim> but that doesnt work
[12:09] <Hagbarddenstore> So 10GB / , 1GB swap , then 5x1GB /home and the rest of my 20GB will be other...
[12:09] <mneptok> salim: and bunzip2 *absolutely* works on bzip files. absolutely.
[12:09] <salim> :-S
[12:09] <salim> that's strange
[12:10] <wols> salim: tell your friends to give you a md5sum of the file
[12:10] <wols> apeman2020: nv
[12:10] <Hagbarddenstore> But there's no way to install server from the Ubuntu/Kubuntu cd?
[12:11] <frogzoo> salim: 'sudo apt-get install bzip2'
[12:11] <salim> but I have bzip2
[12:12] <stefg> Hagbarddenstore: servers typically want lvm / raid, so it requires the alternate installer. And the server-install has a different default package selection
[12:13] <Hagbarddenstore> stefg: Not that kind of server... A home-server. Just for some simple PHP coding, FTP, Samba and shell... Nothing more really... =)
[12:13] <mneptok> Hagbarddenstore: no to mention ubuntu-server gets a different stock kernel
[12:13] <mneptok> Hagbarddenstore: you still want server. unless you want this machine to have a GUI. in which case it fails my litmus test as a server. ;)
[12:14] <Hagbarddenstore> Kk...
[12:14] <Hagbarddenstore> Bahh... Then I'll have to buy cds... Blaahh...
[12:14] <mneptok> why?
[12:14] <mneptok> oh, to burn this new .iso?
[12:14] <Hagbarddenstore> Yep
[12:14] <wols> Hagbarddenstore: can't use a CD-RW?
[12:15] <Hagbarddenstore> wols: Don't have one?!
[12:15] <stefg> Hagbarddenstore: i'm not sure if it's still the case, but an hoary/breezy(?) it was pssible to boot the installer with a 'server' parameter' to install a server. But this only applies to the alternate CD's. The Desktop CD's have a completly different installer, which cannot take parameters, AFAIK
[12:15] <apeman2020> Xseesion: unable to start X session --- no "/root/.xsession" file, no "/root/.Xsession" fiel, no session managers, no window managers, and no terminal emulators found; aborting.
[12:15] <apeman2020> any ideas why?
[12:15] <jUggERNAUt1980> azure is a pay program.  i'm lookin for something free that's better than frostwure.
[12:15] <Hagbarddenstore> Hmm... I have the Dapper Beta cd and I think it's possible to make an server install from that...
[12:15] <mneptok> jUggERNAUt1980: Azureus is free
[12:15] <wols> apeman2020: have you installed kdesktop or any other window manager?
[12:16] <mneptok> apeman2020: why are you trying to login to X as root?
[12:16] <jUggERNAUt1980> mneptok, is it a packet i can get with apt-get?
[12:16] <rbrtoclto> why do I have to restart networking every time I boot to get my wireless link up?
[12:16] <zim_> hi all just a quick Q will 6.10 be 6.10 of 6.**
[12:16] <stefg> Hagbarddenstore: then you're better off to download the server install CD... and apt-get distupgrade from one of the betas will eat up the same amount of bandwidth
[12:17] <mneptok> jUggERNAUt1980: yes
[12:17] <zim_> sorry or not of
[12:17] <jUggERNAUt1980> apt-get azureus?
[12:17] <Hagbarddenstore> Well...  ;D
[12:17] <jUggERNAUt1980> mneptok, thanks!  :)  i have both enabled.
[12:17] <mneptok> Hagbarddenstore: ShipIt
[12:18] <Hagbarddenstore> mneptok: I wanna do this today... Not in six weeks...
[12:18] <mneptok> (although the person that fills ShipIt orders is off today)
[12:18] <apeman2020> mneptok:  sudo
[12:18] <mneptok> apeman2020: do not run X as root.
[12:18] <apeman2020> mneptok: the error doesnt change as user either
[12:19] <mneptok> apeman2020: what exactly are you trying to do?
[12:19] <Hagbarddenstore> hmm... gotta check something bye...
[12:19] <apeman2020> start x!
[12:19] <apeman2020> get into the GUI
[12:19] <mneptok> and what does the machine give you when you boot it?
[12:19] <wols> apeman2020: have you installed a window-manager like kdesktop?
[12:20] <apeman2020> wols: apt-get install kdesktop
[12:20] <mneptok> apeman2020: do you get a graphical login screen, or CLI?
[12:20] <apeman2020> CLI
[12:20] <mneptok> then you have no DE installed.
[12:20] <apeman2020> DE?
[12:20] <mneptok> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[12:20] <mneptok> Desktop Environment
[12:21] <mneptok> (e.g. GNOME, KDE, XFCE, etc)
[12:21] <stefg> sudo apt-get install [K|x] ubuntu-desktop...
[12:21] <apeman2020> mneptok: although i did apt-get install kdesktop?
[12:21] <mneptok> apeman2020: kdesktop is not the name of the KDE desktop package. so no.
[12:21] <mneptok> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[12:21] <mneptok> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[12:22] <mneptok> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[12:22] <mneptok> etc
[12:22] <apeman2020> mneptok: should i apt-get remove kdesktop?
[12:22] <mneptok> no, it's going to be requisite for kubuntu-desktop
[12:22] <grouchytim> so what is the command line to start ssh server listening?
[12:22] <rehn> I have problems entering many characters on my keyboard in X in Dapper; all non-common ones including are shown as two squares. I find that saying LC_ALL="sv_SE@euro" or LANG="sv_SE@euro" (my locale) fixes the problem. Should I put that into /etc/profile or something or is there another more correct solution?
[12:22] <apeman2020> mneptok: i installed ubuntu-desktop.. it will not conflict i hope..
[12:23] <lupine_85> rehn: something isn't UTF-8 aware, by the sounds of it
[12:23] <mneptok> apeman2020: then you should be able to login and type "startx"
[12:23] <Xenguy> grouchytim: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[12:23] <stefg> grouchytim: you mean you want to start a ssh server, to be able to login into that box?
[12:23] <apeman2020> tim: /etc/init.d/ssh start
[12:23] <grouchytim> yes
[12:23] <grouchytim> thanx Xenguy
[12:23] <stefg> grouchytim: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[12:23] <grouchytim> thanx apeman
[12:23] <Xenguy> grouchytim: yw
[12:23] <jUggERNAUt1980> apt-get install azureus is WAY slow!!!
[12:23] <grouchytim> thanx stefg
[12:23] <rehn> lupine_85: Yes, so it seems. How do I make things utf-8 aware then?
[12:24] <lupine_85> you could try LC_all=utf-8 (or whatever the appropriate string is)... otherwise, it's ap-specific
[12:25] <grouchytim> ok i was hoping that was one of my problems but.....connection refused
[12:26] <grouchytim> how do i get machine 1 to be a trusted machine on machine 2?
[12:26] <lupine_85> rehn: you could also try aking in #ubuntu-xx (where xx is your country code)
[12:26] <apeman2020> grouchytim: are you passing through a router?
[12:26] <rehn> lupine_85: LC_ALL=utf-8 does not work.
[12:26] <orbin> jUggERNAUt1980: try a mirror
[12:26] <apeman2020> grouchytim: you will have to forward port 22 on to the client machine
[12:26] <grouchytim> i am ssh'ing from the router
[12:27] <apeman2020> ah
[12:27] <lupine_85> it could be utf8, UFT8, UTF-8 ... I'm not sure, TBH
[12:27] <grouchytim> router is mandrake
[12:27] <apeman2020> just says connection refused?
[12:27] <lupine_85> then sshd isn't running
[12:27] <grouchytim> i had issues with the first ubuntu i set up a few days ago
[12:27] <jUggERNAUt1980> orbin, how do i select a mirror with apt-get?
[12:27] <lupine_85> does it show up in netstat -lt ?
[12:27] <grouchytim> and now i have the same problem on the next
[12:27] <linux__alien> how do i remove Kubuntu-Desktop and its allied applications completely from Ubuntu
[12:27] <mneptok> linux__alien: sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[12:28] <apeman2020> linux__alien: with a crowbar
[12:28] <linux__alien> even when the system starts it shows Kubuntu i want the original installation that i had before installing Kubuntu-Desktop
[12:28] <linux__alien> apeman2020, with a crowbar means/
[12:28] <linux__alien> ?
[12:28] <rehn> I just realised that I get "X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168" whenever I start an X app... That might be related to the UTf-8 problem I guess?

[12:30] <linux__alien> jk ?
[12:30] <linux__alien> oh ok
[12:31] <linux__alien> apeman2020, so could you tell me how to go about it
[12:31] <apeman2020> ;)
[12:31] <grouchytim> and by the way i can ssh to the router but not back into ubuntu
[12:31] <apeman2020> sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[12:31] <linux__alien> i ve removed kdm but my gdm does not start and morever i still get the KDE themes and applications in gnome
[12:31] <apeman2020> hmm
[12:31] <jUggERNAUt1980> orbin, i think it sped up.  it was less than a k/s
[12:31] <grouchytim> and ping shows the router and other machines on the network
[12:32] <jUggERNAUt1980> orbin, now it's goin 14.4kB/s
[12:32] <wols> linux__alien: remove kdelibs4 package
[12:33] <linux__alien> wols, it says not installed

[12:35] <darkanyel> hi!
[12:35] <linux__alien> that was way good wols
[12:36] <wols> linux__alien: tried dpkg-reconfigure gdm ?
[12:36] <Janchi> Good afternoon, sorry to bother, but is there an Ubuntu channel for the PPC? Thanks
[12:36] <Ackeubu_> how do i replace  'http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/' with 'http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/ubuntu/' in /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:36] <darkanyel> anyone know how can i config... my buttons of DVD and Musik of my notebook??
[12:37] <apeman2020> Ackeubu_: sudo view /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:37] <apeman2020> Ackeubu_: alt s, edit it, then alt q then shift : wq!
[12:38] <stefg> darkanyel: that depends on wether they deliver scancodes. If so you can configure it by the hotkey-applet, if not google for a package called keytouch
[12:38] <wols> apeman2020: wouldn't it be easier to let people use nano instead of some sort of vi? *g*
[12:38] <Ackeubu_> im pretty sure there are a command to replace strings in a file. insted of doing one at the time
[12:38] <apeman2020> suer
[12:38] <apeman2020> suer
[12:38] <apeman2020> sure
[12:38] <apeman2020> lol
[12:38] <apeman2020> i always use VI. force of habit
[12:39] <stefg> Ackeubu_: man sed :-)
[12:39] <Ackeubu_> im a nano guy. but im also a lazy guy
[12:39] <Ackeubu_> stefg: ty
[12:39] <orbin> Janchi: no.  people usually ask ppc related questions in here too.
[12:40] <ntoll> hi, how so I mount a networked windows share from a windowsXP machine onto my ubuntu box? Ubuntu guide doesn't have any advice and googling just brings back stuff about reading an XP hard-drive partition rather than a network share... Pointers???? TIA
[12:40] <Janchi> Thanks Orbin. I have been trying to install Ubuntu on my old iMac Indigo yesterday, but it was horribly slow. I wondered whether others had a similar experience and whether Xubuntu would be a better choice
[12:40] <apeman2020> ntoll: samba
[12:40] <darkanyel> thanks
[12:40] <ntoll> yup... I got that far... :-) is there a howto?
[12:40] <darkanyel> im gonna look for it
[12:41] <kyja> there is a great ascii demmo named bb. however I cant have music and the graphics working at the same time. thus I guess I have some trouble, also how do I set monitor depth??
[12:41] <stefg> ntoll: you've goog a load of options. I'm doing by smbfs, this means mounting it in my file tree. See !samba
[12:41] <orbin> Janchi: not familiar w/ imac specs.  but yeah, xfce is a better option for older machines
[12:41] <linux__alien> wols, sorry stopped the KDM by mistake and i had to reboot :-(
[12:41] <ntoll> stefg: cheers
[12:41] <linux__alien> wols, how do i get gdm working now ?
[12:42] <wols> first off, you don't need to reboot cause kdm is stopped: startx
[12:42] <wols> 2nd: try dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[12:42] <orbin> kyja: 2nd Q: change the defaultdepth line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restart X
[12:42] <jUggERNAUt1980> if not apt-get, where can i download azureus from?
[12:42] <apeman2020> ntoll: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2002-October/053214.html
[12:42] <Seveas> !azureua
[12:42] <Seveas> !azureus
[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about azureua - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <ubotu> azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AzureusHowTo
[12:42] <ntoll> cheers apeman2020
[12:42] <stefg> !azureus
[12:42] <kyja> ah ok thx for that orbin
[12:43] <jUggERNAUt1980> it's being way too slow in terminal.
[12:43] <Ackeubu_> stefg like this: sudo sed -s "http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/ubuntu/" "http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/" /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:43] <Janchi> Orbin: the Indigo comes with 500 Mhz clockspeed and 768 MB RAM. I will give Xubuntu a try then. Ubuntu was frozen solid ;-)
[12:43] <Ackeubu_> or
[12:43] <Ackeubu_> stefg like this: sudo sed -s/"http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/ubuntu/"/"http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/" /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:43] <mneptok> Janchi: that's more than enough for Ubuntu
[12:43] <wols> Janchi: I can't believe that.
[12:43] <Janchi> Hmmm, why is it that slow then?
[12:43] <mneptok> Janchi: i've had Ubuntu running well on a toilet-seat iBook@366Mhz.
[12:44] <jUggERNAUt1980> no clue!!
[12:44] <linux__alien> wols, let me log out and see now
[12:44] <wols> Janchi: usually the critical part is enough memory on slow machines. never CPU
[12:44] <stefg> Ackeubu_: the second one is closer, but still wrong... -i /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:44] <mneptok> Janchi: how much swap did you allow for? what apps did you install?
[12:44] <Ackeubu_> sudo sed -s "http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/ubuntu/" "http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/" -i /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:44] <Janchi> I had to use the alternate install, because it wouldn't boot into the live CD
[12:44] <mneptok> Janchi: the most recent Ubuntu shouyld be faster than the most recent OSX by a wide margin
[12:44] <Janchi> @ mneptok: just default install
[12:44] <Janchi> of dapper
[12:45] <jUggERNAUt1980> i had to do the alternate install too!  :)
[12:45] <mneptok> Janchi: if it won't boot from CD, maybe there are hardware issues?
[12:45] <Ackeubu_>  sudo sed -s/"http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/ubuntu/"/"http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/" -i /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:45] <Ackeubu_> like that I ment
[12:45] <Ackeubu_> meant*\
[12:45] <mneptok> (and Desktop/Live CDs should never, ever be burned at >8x speed)
[12:46] <Janchi> The alternate install disk worked perfectly. The install was finished in 30 minutes
[12:46] <Janchi> The bootup after that was extremely slow (10 minutes), after login it was frozen.
[12:47] <mneptok> Janchi: smells like a bad burn or bad hardware
[12:47] <josh_> AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
[12:47] <Janchi> Mac OS X Tiger worked perfectly, so I didn't exprect any hardware problems
[12:47] <Janchi> But I will check the burn process again for the disk
[12:47] <josh_> Hows the weather?
[12:47] <Ackeubu_> sed and i dont agree
[12:47] <josh_> HOWS THE WEATHER!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
[12:48] <Seveas> !offtopic > josh_
[12:48] <grouchytim> josh_ i think you have issues
[12:48] <Ackeubu_>  s/regexp/replacement/
[12:48] <grouchytim> look out the wiindow
[12:48] <jUggERNAUt1980> josh_, shhhh!!
[12:48] <jUggERNAUt1980> :P
[12:48] <josh_> aww
