[02:22] <morrolan> Hi, I've recently upgraded to Feisty, and decided to give the new network-manager-gnome a try, as on edgy it didn't like my wireless card (wireless  works fine, just not with the new manager) - it still doesn't work, but now I can't get ANY wireless at all?
[02:24] <daquino> why is adept_installer so slow
[02:25] <s-mc> Q: i would like to install apache to my new linux box (desktop edition), in synaptic there are multiple version (i assume apache2 is latest) also lots of other downlaods i.e. apache2.2-common, what do i need to download to get it to work ?
[02:25] <daquino> get both
[02:25] <Sh3r1ff> s-mc: apt-get install apache2 should do it
[02:26] <jrib> s-mc: apache2 will grab the other stuff you need automatically
[02:26] <s-mc> thanks
[02:26] <Ind[y] > When using Nautilus with the davs protocol, and I copy a file, the "copying..." message box does not disappear after the end of the copy. The copy is done correctly, but after a 5 minutes of freezing, the "copying..." message box says there was an error. Should I report this to launchpad?
[02:27] <ekimus> hello, need to switch my dns server on a production machine. i'm using pdns-server and pdns-backend-ldap can someone confirm that those do work in 6.10? (had a lot of problems with ubuntu in the past few days)
[02:27] <b08y> Ind[y] , are you sure that all file are correctly moved or copied?
[02:28] <b08y> file+s
[02:28] <ekimus> Ind[y] : is that your server you're copying to?
[02:29] <WaxyFresh> i extracted a amd64 alternative install from an iso to a usb drive and then started my computer,all i get is os not found
[02:29] <surviver> anyone can help me i got my lan with 2 pc's : 1 windows and 1 linux where i am on now , but when i try to access the other one i get this message: the folder contents could not be displayed
[02:30] <scifi> anyone know a good avatar site?
[02:30] <WaxyFresh> is there something im misssing?^^
[02:30] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: probably a boot record
[02:30] <surviver> waxyfresh, maybe need to set boot from usb device
[02:30] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: how would i add a boot record?
[02:31] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: i basicly want teh usb drive to work lke a cd drive causeing the computer to boot into the install cd i extracted on it
[02:31] <computa_Mike> Hi - trying to get my head around developing Device Drivers in Linux (ubuntu 6.06) - I'm using the tutorials on the Linux Device Drivers book from Oreily.  I have downloaded the kernel source, and I have installed the development tools - however I can't even make the samples provided by Oreilly.  Has anyone done driver development on Ubuntu?
[02:31] <surviver> waxyfresh, nrmly u get that when u install ubuntu
[02:31] <WaxyFresh> surviver: no it boots fine
[02:32] <WaxyFresh> surviver: no other way
[02:32] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: why don't you just install ubuntu on the usb drive?
[02:32] <WaxyFresh> ?
[02:32] <surviver> waxyfresh, the bootrecord nrmly sets up in last stap off install ^o)
[02:32] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: it does boot fine? so then forget that boot record problem
[02:32] <WaxyFresh> because my only working computer is 32 bit the one i need to install to is 64 bit,wold that still work?
[02:32] <Fome> How do I install other wm's in Gnome on Ubuntu? (I still want to use Gnome, but want to use another wm than Metacity)
[02:33] <X11R6> I need help: i had an old version of ubuntu (like 5). I looked up the package servers for a newer version (like 7 something) and i did dist-upgrade. I totally broke the system, and apt-get -f install terminates saying "trying to overwrite /usr/X11R6/bin' which is also in package rdesktop
[02:33] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: no that was in reference to an earlier Q
[02:33] <the_fury> where would the conf file be that holds the language settings for gnome?
[02:33] <surviver> waxyfresh, u cant install a 64 bit os on a 32 bit
[02:33] <Puppy_> Is there a program that would "transform" a .package into a .deb? This would make it a lot more easy for Ubuntu users to download and install programs that are not in synaptic.
[02:33] <leagris> Ind[y] , logging DAV transaction server side could help diagnose the problem. I have no problems withs nautilus accessing my Apache davs repos.
[02:33] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: do you need 64bit? (messy setup with flash and a whole bunch of other drivers) if you don't have a specific reason to use 64bit stay 32bit
[02:34] <slickw0rm> hey people
[02:34] <surviver> anyone can help me i got my lan with 2 pc's : 1 windows and 1 linux where i am on now , but when i try to access the other one i get this message: the folder contents could not be displayed
[02:34] <slickw0rm> has anyone had any problems while shutting down ubuntu
[02:34] <slickw0rm> ?
[02:34] <surviver> nope
[02:34] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: isnt 64 bit faster though?
[02:34] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: no
[02:34] <surviver> waxyfresh, dont go 64b i got it and i cant see flash , macromedia and stuff
[02:34] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: what would the benefits be?
[02:35] <WeeJeWel> How can i change launcher icons on the panel?
[02:35] <WeeJeWel> change the size**
[02:35] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: 64bit just enables you to get past certain limitations (ram size, etc) but I'm pretty sure you won't hit these as a normal PC user
[02:35] <slickw0rm> when i shutdown my notebook running ubuntu...my harddisk always makes a loud scratching sound...but doents happen in windows tho...
[02:35] <slickw0rm> anyone knows what the problem is?
[02:35] <Puppy_> so no one know of anything?
[02:35] <the_fury> does anybody know where the config file is for gnome that determines which language gnome is using?
[02:36] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: 64bit is an advantage when doing vast amounts of number crunching or similiar stuff in all other cases (desktop systems) it just causes problems cause of missing drivers
[02:36] <surviver> anyone can help me i got my lan with 2 pc's : 1 windows and 1 linux where i am on now , but when i try to access the other one i get this message: the folder contents could not be displayed
[02:36] <X11R6> I need help: i getbroke the system, and apt-get -f install terminates saying "trying to overwrite /usr/X11R6/bin' which is also in package rdesktop
[02:36] <X11R6> I need help: apt-get -f install terminates saying "trying to overwrite /usr/X11R6/bin' which is also in package rdesktop"
[02:36] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: so the 1400$ laptop my friend got was a silly investment?
[02:38] <slickw0rm> hey anyone here heard of hack in the box?
[02:38] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: in my opinion 64bit is useless for a home user (or better stated, the people that sell you 64bit aren't willing to support 64bit - since all the 32bit software still works on that hardware they still sell 32bit software to run on 64bit hardware)
[02:38] <slickw0rm> true ekimus
[02:38] <slickw0rm> very true
[02:38] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: thanks
[02:38] <WaxyFresh> for the info*
[02:39] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: besides that are all the components 64bit? i know that there are a couple of boxes out there that have the ultra lates super cool 64bit processors - which is running in 32bit mode because all the other peripherals (chipset on the motherboard etc) are only 32bit capable
[02:39] <ryan__> I have a CD writer that fails to write with either nautilus or gnome-baker. Looks like a hardware problem to me, can anyone look at this gnomebaker output and give me an opinion or clue? http://pastebin.com/937454
[02:39] <ryan__> P.S. it's an external
[02:40] <slickw0rm> ok ryan
[02:40] <slickw0rm> i will have a look
[02:40] <clx> Do someone know how can I change the master password of gnome-keyring...
[02:41] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: so back on topic :) - simply try installing the 32bit cdrom on your usb drive (the real install procedure not live cd extracting) and try to get that working. it will run on every computer (which makes sense for a portable drive, think of the case where you are happily carring around your install and come to a 32bit box and you chose to install 64bit)
[02:41] <clx> I tried google but, seems  a missing feature, only possible in gnome 2.19
[02:41] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: i dont know amd turiom 64 X2 duel core  ati radeon Xpres 1150 2 gigs memory (would that card run beryl you think?)besides thAT I DONT KNOW ANYTING ABOUT THE HARDWARE
[02:41] <WaxyFresh> oopps sorry for caps
[02:42] <Pici> WaxyFresh: I'm running compiz fusion on a ati x1400 and it runs fine @ 1400x1050.
[02:42] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: np, but i can assure you that the ubuntu 32bit cdrom will run and install on 64bit hardware (given the hardware is supported but you'd have to have some real exotics to find unsupported hardware imho)
[02:43] <cafuego> WaxyFresh: The pronly problem might be the 64bit ATI drivers; they're not very good quality.
[02:44] <WaxyFresh> im setting up 32 bit now
[02:44] <X11R6> how do i install version 7.04 over an existing 5.10 without destroying all my data?
[02:44] <ryan__> thanks slickw0rm
[02:44] <ekimus> cafuego: does flash run on 64bit (out of the box)
[02:44] <cafuego> ekimus: no.
[02:44] <blubbi> Hi, how do I install a Creative AWE54 ISA card?
[02:44] <cafuego> ekimus: But with nspluginwrapper it works fine
[02:44] <blubbi> I just installed the latest KUBUNTU
[02:45] <WaxyFresh> blubbi: #kubuntu
[02:45] <ekimus> cafuego: so that's graphics, flash, a bunch of wifi cards (to my knowledge and what i see in different forums)
[02:45] <slickw0rm> ur welcome
[02:45] <cafuego> wow, an awe64. do theys till make cases big enough to fit those?
[02:45] <slickw0rm> gimme a short while to read it
[02:45] <computa_Mike> anyone here been able to compile drivers in Ubunut?
[02:45] <cafuego> ekimus: I run my desktop box as 64bit systm and don't have issues
[02:45] <computa_Mike> or even ubuntu?
[02:46] <cafuego> computa_Mike: Sure, you just need the linux-headers-$(uname -r) package
[02:47] <computa_Mike> ok - i'll try it
[02:47] <aroo> d
[02:47] <ekimus> cafuego: grats, but if you follow the discussions on the web 64bit causes trouble for desktops just about everywhere (regardless of OS)
[02:48] <computa_Mike> right - that would seem to something I have neglected to install... so far I have been developing drivers in Linux for about.... 5 hours!
[02:48] <ekimus> cafuego: i'm not absolutely denying 64bit just saying that there are some poor people out there that think that 64bit will make everything faster better and more sexy while software sellers aren't really supporting it
[02:50] <j^> gpg --gen-key does not work here with
[02:50] <j^> Not enough random bytes available.  Please do some other work to give
[02:50] <j^> the OS a chance to collect more entropy!
[02:50] <graveson1> i am not sure what happened but it seems like my grub has been changed. i had an option to dual boot into windows and now that is missing ? how can i fix this ?
[02:50] <j^> anyone found a workaround?
[02:50] <X11R6> question: how do i install version 7.04 over an existing 5.10 without destroying all my data?
[02:50] <CheshireViking> !upgrade | X11R6

[02:52] <jimcooncat> Is there a way to fix the Help feature in Evolution?
[02:52] <jimcooncat> !help evolution
[02:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about help evolution - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:52] <ekimus> j^: the workaround is to do what the message says (move mouse, type stuff in a textfile etc)
[02:52] <qos> hey guys ... my dvd recorder SOMETIMES gets only recognized to be a 6x recorder. when i restart my computer it gets recognized correctly. but restarting sucks, so... is there a way to to this by hand?
[02:52] <graveson1> !help grub
[02:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about help grub - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:53] <graveson1> !grub
[02:53] <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
[02:54] <j^> ekimus: this is on a server without keyboard or mouse
[02:54] <Ind[y] > So, should I report that bug I mentioned before (with nautilus, file copying and davs) to launchpad?
[02:55] <j^> ekimus: and the server has quite some network traffic, disk activity etc, still nothing for more than 15 minutes
[02:55] <ekimus> j^: ok than that is strange :)
[02:55] <j^> just to make sure i tried it on 2 other ubuntu boxes, same thing
[02:55] <ekimus> j^: the fastest workaround i can think of would be go genereate the keys on another box
[02:56] <ekimus> yup i'm having problems with a lot of packages to, strangely enough all of those work in debian....
[02:56] <j^> ekimus: quite broken i would say
[02:56] <graveson1> !dualboot

[02:57] <ekimus> j^: ubuntu is broken in some places - some must at some time explain to me why libnss-ldap and libpam-ldap are 1) unsupported and 2) broken (that makes ubuntu useless in an ldap based centralized login env)
[02:58] <phretor> hi there
[02:58] <phretor> what if I need libdw-dev/libelf-dev 0.127 ? (0.123 is the current version)
[02:58] <qos> hey guys ... my dvd recorder SOMETIMES gets only recognized to be a 6x recorder. when i restart my computer it gets recognized correctly. but restarting sucks, so... is there a way to to this by hand?
[02:58] <j^> on a desktop with a mouse it got generate the key, wonderful
[02:59] <Duesentrieb> hi all. any idea how i can configure the java browser plugin? on windows&mac, there's a java configuration item in the system setup... where would i find that in ubuntu?
[02:59] <xukun> hi all, I,m trying to restore directory from Trash to /media/sda1 but I get "Access is denied to /media/sda1" any idea how to solve this?
[02:59] <Duesentrieb> i need a way to tell java to allow more memory to be used by the plugin...
[03:00] <Duesentrieb> xukun: change the permissions in the mount options. or do it as root.
[03:00] <cafuego> ekimus: pam-ldap and libnss-ldap are working fine for me
[03:00] <BloodyTux> hey, so is there a program i can just shove a src into and it'll make a deb for me? i forgot the website about dpkg and all tha
[03:01] <cafuego> ekimus: Only thing to keep in mind is that you make sure you tell libnss-ldap to *fail* at bootup when udev tries to retrieve group names before networking is up.
[03:01] <xukun> Duesentrieb, yes that is what I was thinking, but I don not know how to change the permissions in the mount option
[03:01] <instabin> can any one help with the open vpn client
[03:02] <Duesentrieb> xukun: man fstab, man mount
[03:02] <instabin> i cant get the open vpn client to connect
[03:02] <BotaniCar> instabin: do you get any errors back ?
[03:02] <instabin> no
[03:03] <neopsyche> if i already have windows installed (ntfs) on my entire hdisk is there a way to repartition to split my drive up to install ubuntu?
[03:03] <instabin> BotaniCar all i have is the gui and it wont let me pick the connection
[03:03] <BotaniCar> instabin: use a connection client that generates reports
[03:03] <s-mc> im trying to get me moneys worth out of u lot (puzzles of my own comment there). Q: how do i start a ssh server/service on ubuntu ?
[03:03] <xukun> Duesentrieb, I have done that already but did not get what I was looking for
[03:03] <strabes> can anyone confirm that the zen microphoto works out of the box with amarok in feisty?
[03:03] <instabin> BotaniCar is the addon for gnome netowrk monitor
[03:03] <BotaniCar> instabin: you might also try to connect by hand from terminal window, that is bound to give some feedback
[03:04] <Pici> s-mc: you need to install the ssh package first.
[03:04] <BotaniCar> instabin: try to connect with abovementioned method first , so you know setup and keys are ok
[03:04] <ekimus> cafuego: yes but still it is unsupported (plus FC, SuSE and debian managed to make it work out of the box)
[03:04] <Pici> s-mc: The package name is just ssh.
[03:04] <Duesentrieb> xukun: look at the umask option
[03:04] <s-mc> Pici: i have done that
[03:04] <BotaniCar> instabin: then, sure of setup working , you can blame gnome applet
[03:04] <instabin> BotaniCar: I have allready use the files to connect with windows
[03:05] <shakus> how do i remove the networking icon from the dock?
[03:05] <Pici> s-mc: It should start automatically, but you can use `sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start` to manually start it.
[03:05] <BotaniCar> instabin: i am sorry but i cant help with gnome applet problems, i dont use them :(
[03:05] <s-mc> Pici: thanks
[03:05] <instabin> BotaniCar: Well thanks any way
[03:05] <naufraghi> hello!, some hint to debug a qt4 app uting libqt4-debug package?

[03:06] <s-mc> Pici: says command not found. but i can see ssh folders etc so it must be on here.

[03:19] <CheshireViking> Some_Person, I thought it was still classed as in development, but looking at the ntfs-3g website, they say its a stable release since february 2007
[03:19] <Some_Person> This was in June 2006
[03:20] <scorp123> CheshireViking: I fail to see what this has to do with the issue at hand or how this would get his data back?
[03:20] <scorp123> Some_Person: do you know on what partition (e.g. /dev/sdb1 ... etc.) your NTFS filesystem was?
[03:21] <ham1979> Hello
[03:21] <hoelk> !ntfs3g
[03:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:21] <Some_Person> it was /dev/hda1
[03:21] <soundray> Some_Person: there is no way of using a computer without risking data loss, so always have a backup.
[03:21] <scorp123> !ntfs
[03:21] <CheshireViking> scorp123, the original question was whether r/w access for ntfs was available and whether it would mess up the system
[03:21] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[03:21] <s-mc> Q: in firestarter i add a rule to allow all connections from <IP_ADDRESS> yet it stop a ssh conenction, if i goto the event veiwer and allow conenctions from client it adds a rule allowing <IP_ADDRESS>, it now allows ssh connections from my pc, why did my network rule not work ?
[03:21] <ham1979> I have a group called virtual with 2 users one is the vitual user for postfix setup but i want to give same permission for mailuser so i can get into the folder and backup the mail!
[03:21] <bronze> !ntfs-3g | Some_Person
[03:21] <ubotu> Some_Person: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:21] <scorp123> CheshireViking: the "ntfs" module from the kernel *WILL* mess up your filesystem, yes.
[03:21] <Some_Person> I'll try it again now that it's stable
[03:22] <scorp123> Some_Person: does this command show anything: "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda"
[03:22] <Some_Person> This was last year you know
[03:22] <Some_Person> The partition is long gone
[03:23] <bronze> When I tried to install it with synaptic it says "Package could not be verified, bla bla bla not safe".
[03:23] <bronze> Wonder what that means...
[03:23] <WaxyFresh> i just did an 5.10 install (its the most up to date i have)and when i go to start it x.org fails,what should i do?
[03:23] <scorp123> You said it "suddenly disappeared" ... ?  OK, now I'm confused. :)
[03:23] <bronze> It suddenly disappeared a year ago :)
[03:24] <scorp123> bronze: some packages are signed with GPG keys ... so this one you got there isn't. Can happen. No big deal usually. Just say "Yes, install anyway".
[03:24] <azo> so is there ANYONE that has ever used 915resolution?
[03:24] <scorp123> yes
[03:24] <bronze> scorp123, roger that.

[03:40] <nothingssomethin> in terminal how do i change my wireless card to something that will work
[03:40] <kapistus> That resolution-trick didn't work, any other ideas?
[03:41] <kapistus> My resolution caps at 1024x768 and it's a pain in the butt because if have a 20" widescreen.

[03:42] <bronze> I have kinda the same problem. No way whatsoever to get my refresh rate to 72 or 75hz. I can only choose between 50, 54 and 55hz, but when I check it with my screen, it says 85hz.
[03:43] <kapistus> Bronze, i cannot even choose between those rates, it sets mine to 60

[03:43] <ham1979> I have a group called virtual with 2 users one is the vitual user for postfix setup but i want to give  permission for mailuser so i can get into the folder and backup the mail!
[03:43] <durab> the driver seems to be loaded and there are no problems as far as I know, but wpa_supplicant is segfaulting

[03:59] <Some_Person> Is there any other way to fix it? I don't really want to do a "hard boot".

[04:02] <nothingssomethin> like dir /p

[04:02] <soundray> openminddj: okay... I've never tried using it that way, but if it works, that's great
[04:03] <WaxyFresh> so no idea why when booting up it stalls at starting hotplug sys for 5+ mins?

[04:17] <nothingssomethin> how do i pause it is going all the way past before i can read it all
[04:17] <durab> of that I am guilty
[04:18] <miasma> what's the package name for apache fop in ubuntu?
[04:18] <durab> perhaps now we have a conversation started you could look over my ndiswrapper output
[04:18] <dr_willis> !find apache
[04:18] <yondie> jturek_, it depends on wat type of graphik kard you are usin

[04:21] <fasemprebene> 'm a newbye
[04:21] <rohan> gnomefreak: hi .. any updates on the sun-java6 issue ?
[04:21] <fasemprebene> i have a little problem with ubuntu 7.04
[04:21] <ryan__> whew, thanks jrib
[04:22] <fasemprebene> someone can help me?
[04:22] <kitche> BenC: yes it is but not links being posted that don't have to deal with ubuntu problems
[04:22] <benmayim> variant, upon further reading of that website, he specifically states that he did not us option 2 - Install LAMP server, and I don't want to start over.
[04:22] <BenC> kitche: it's a forum for people with ubuntu problems, specific to Dell
[04:22] <rohan> fasemprebene: ask, don't ask to ask :)
[04:22] <fasemprebene> what?
[04:22] <miasma> is it possible that there is no fop package in ubuntu. if I look at http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/text/docbook-xsl, it says "Package not available"
[04:22] <fasemprebene> ah ok
[04:22] <magnetron> !ask | fasemprebene
[04:22] <magnetron> !enter | fasemprebene
[04:22] <ubotu> fasemprebene: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:22] <ubotu> fasemprebene: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:23] <kitche> BenC: I know what it is I m not blind
[04:23] <rohan> magnetron: oh, i did not know ubotu already had factoids for it
[04:23] <BenC> kitche: then maybe you need to reword your argument
[04:23] <kitche> Benc: it's still offtopic
[04:23] <fasemprebene> since this morning my broser "firefox" close alone while i explore the net and simetimes ubuntu disconect the session
[04:23] <fasemprebene> why?
[04:24] <kapistus> Could someone help me? I'm very new to this OS and i have trouble getting the correct resolution to match my 20" widescreen. All i get is 1024x768. I have Ati's radeon 9600xt.
[04:24] <BenC> kitche: so help with Ubuntu on Dell is offtopic for #ubuntu, I'll be sure to spread the word
[04:24] <nothingssomethin> ok from what it says about it i belive that that is my dell truemoble the cisco areonet is the one i can see blinking
[04:24] <BenC> kitche: so mentioning ubuntu forums is offtopic too?
[04:24] <rohan> !ati > kapistus
[04:24] <benmayim> I have mysql installed, How do I access it? do I have to install something like ISPconfig to access it? Why didn't the option 2 put a pkg on the system that would be able to access it, and if it did, how do I find it?
[04:24] <rohan> !ati | kapistus
[04:24] <ubotu> kapistus: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:24] <kapistus> Oh, thanks
[04:24] <nothingssomethin> the dell truemoble is off and also it says that wifi0 is off
[04:24] <kitche> benmayim: mysql is the command
[04:25] <pike_> benmayim: consider installing phpmyadmin too. you can access it in browser by pointing to localhost
[04:25] <Assassyn> hi
[04:25] <Assassyn> anyone installed VMware on ubuntu 7.04?
[04:25] <benmayim> kitche, from the command line terminal?
[04:25] <kitche> benmayim: there is some frontends to mysql if you wish
[04:25] <kitche> benmayim: yes
[04:25] <benmayim> I'm not a linux guru, I don't know command line very well.
[04:26] <rohan> Assassyn: you want vmware player or normal vmware ?
[04:26] <durab> when im using tightvnc I get just a desktop and a terminal, whats the name of the file browser to run?
[04:26] <kitche> benmayim: well grab a gui frontednt o mysql since mysql is a command line program
[04:26] <Assassyn> normal
[04:26] <magnetron> benmayim: mysql is a command line application, but there is some graphical frontends for it
[04:26] <Assassyn> to create virtual disks etc so i can install some OSes
[04:27] <yondie> Assassyn, to create vmdk u need qemu
[04:27] <dr_willis> of course mysql is the kind of program that whole books are written on. :)  so dont expect it to be point and click
[04:27] <rohan> Assassyn: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[04:27] <rohan> yondie: not really, he can use vmware too
[04:27] <Assassyn> so what should i install? qemu or vmware?
[04:27] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  ive installed vmware server to let me do all sorts of things.
[04:27] <benmayim> kitche, I did the command line command and got in, now I'll have to get out my mysql handbook and see what databases are there already and/or make my own.
[04:27] <nothingssomethin> ok how do i enable and disable cards
[04:27] <yondie> rohan i mean to create the vmware image
[04:27] <yondie> freely
[04:27] <yondie> available
[04:27] <yondie> use qemu-img
[04:27] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  qemu, vmware-server, virtualbox, do similer things.
[04:27] <rohan> Assassyn: just read :) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware if you want vmware
[04:27] <Paddy_EIRE> hey there I am currently watching a video and the audio seems to be delayed a little is there any tricks or handy tools to sort this out
[04:28] <rohan> Amaranth: as yondie said, if you want absolute free, you can go for qemu
[04:28] <MrOtacon> hey guys - i just installed beryl, but wondered if there was anywhere i could download settings files from as i do not understand why it wont let me type in windows
[04:28] <Paddy_EIRE> its a local video not a stream
[04:28] <kitche> benmayim: by default there is just mostly permissions databases and such that mysql needs to run right
[04:28] <nothingssomethin> or make certian one default
[04:28] <yondie> i prefer kernel-xen but well dat`s just me
[04:28] <dr_willis> Paddy_EIRE,  most of the media players have some sort of audio-shifting feature  - but ive rarely seen the problem.
[04:28] <Assassyn> ok.. what`s best from your list dr_willis?
[04:28] <magnetron> Paddy_EIRE: VLC has a configurable sound delay
[04:28] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  i tend to USE vmware-server
[04:28] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  it deopends on your exact needs as to whats best.
[04:29] <Assassyn> to install windows XP on it
[04:29] <yondie> or how passionate are u on using non-propitery stuff
[04:29] <Paddy_EIRE> magnetron, vlc seems to be unable to play .divx very well
[04:29] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  i would say use vmware then.
[04:29] <magnetron> Paddy_EIRE: ok
[04:29] <Assassyn> o
[04:29] <Assassyn> k
[04:29] <Assassyn> thans
[04:29] <Paddy_EIRE> magnetron, big green band across the top
[04:29] <magnetron> Paddy_EIRE: ok
[04:30] <dr_willis> Paddy_EIRE,  cant say that ive ever seen that issue.
[04:30] <dr_willis> define 'big' :) 1/2 the screen? or a single line?
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_willis, yeah the whole vid is basically unwatchable in vlc
[04:31] <MrOtacon> does anyone have a beryl settings file with decent settings?
[04:31] <kitche> Paddy_EIRE: soudns to me like a codec issue did you try the xvid codec?
[04:31] <dr_willis> Paddy_EIRE,  interesting. coyuld try a newer version of vlc.
[04:31] <dr_willis> I dident think vlc USED the codec stuff like other programs do.
[04:31] <tingle> when will there be a next release?
[04:32] <yondie> xine works all the time
[04:32] <rohan> tingle: october
[04:32] <rohan> !gutsy | tingle
[04:32] <ubotu> tingle: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10).

[04:32] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm, maybe so although I have found the sound shift feature in SMplayer :D the best vid player on linux afaik
[04:32] <tingle> thanks guys
[04:33] <yondie> hurm.. anyone have any idea how to play midi file? without consuming 100% cpu usage
[04:33] <mat1980> !midi
[04:33] <ubotu> Trouble playing MIDI files? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo
[04:33] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_willis, maybe its that video output option in vlc should be something else other than xv or x11
[04:34] <computa_Mike> hello - i posted on here earlier about having problems compiling Linux Drivers - I was advised to install the headers, which I have done (i think) but now I am getting an error :make[1] : *** No rule to make target `Source'.  Stop.
[04:34] <computa_Mike> any ideas?
[04:34] <nothingssomethin> ok how do i change settings of network devices in terminal
[04:34] <dr_willis> Paddy_EIRE,  thats possible.
[04:34] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  what settings exactly?
[04:34] <Paddy_EIRE> thanks anyhow SMplayer works perfect for now
[04:34] <mat1980> computa_Mike: you havn't done ./configure
[04:34] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  'ifconfig' for most cases controls stuff.
[04:35] <nothingssomethin> well the default device to use or to change the one i want to use
[04:35] <computa_Mike> Mat1980 - thanks - do i just go to the comamnd line and type that in?
[04:35] <SAM_theman> !games
[04:35] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[04:35] <nothingssomethin> that i thoought only displays stuff
[04:35] <pike_> nothingssomethin: gksu /etc/network/interfaces  to change the defualt autoconnect settings
[04:35] <pike_> nothingssomethin: er.. gksu gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[04:36] <pike_> nothingssomethin: or nano for cli
[04:36] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  what you are wanting to change is not clear.. and ifconfig does set various settings for the network devices. :) theres other ways to set them as well. depending on what you want done.
[04:36] <nothingssomethin> ok i'm going to try that
[04:37] <mat1980> computa_Mike: yes. Read the file README. There it should be explained how to compile the driver.
[04:37] <nothingssomethin> well
[04:37] <MrOtacon> how do i get the window close buttons back in beryl?
[04:37] <computa_Mike> Mat - that's the problem - I'm working through the OReilly book on developing device drivers and I basically have just the sample code...
[04:38] <dr_willis> computa_Mike,  sounds like your make file or command is incorrect. its looking to build the wrong thing.
[04:39] <nothingssomethin> i am forced to use diagnostic mode and it won't let me onto the internet and with little digging i found out that it's trying to use my hard line ethernet device witch is not pluged in and the other card is in pcimcia slot and it is blinking away and acting normal i really don't know what to do but it won't even ping google so it's not online
[04:39] <_Titatovenaar_> does nVIDIA's sli work on ubu?
[04:39] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  you are trying to use a wireless card instead of the wired card?
[04:40] <nothingssomethin> well yeah
[04:40] <computa_Mike> Mat1980 - so what is this ./cofigure command do?
[04:40] <nothingssomethin> why
[04:40] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  thats MUCh clearer then what you've been asking. :)
[04:40] <nothingssomethin> is that not possable in debug mode because i did it before
[04:40] <kitche> computa_Mike: look at the configure file it's just a script
[04:41] <computa_Mike> thanks dr_Willis :I downloaded the code from the OReilly examples site - has anyone tried compiling it?
[04:41] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin, debug mode? if you got the drivers/modules/card configufed right it should work in the other modes
[04:41] <nothingssomethin> it did it automaticly last time
[04:41] <mat1980> computa_Mike: it should check that on your system there is all you need, and maybe configure something for match the compilation to your system
[04:41] <nothingssomethin> it is configed right
[04:41] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  'last time' as in last Install? or last reboot? or last week?
[04:41] <computa_Mike> ok - I'll give it a whirl...
[04:41] <nothingssomethin> i used it before i started haveing problems with nvidia
[04:42] <nothingssomethin> that's why i'm in debug mode
[04:42] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  if there was a kernel update lately, you may need to reinstall the proper wireless card modules.
[04:42] <computa_Mike> Mat1980 : Configure doesn't seem to do anything
[04:43] <nothingssomethin> would i need the internet for that
[04:43] <kitche> computa_Mike: you have to be in the folder of the source code and type ./configure since it's a script in the source directory
[04:43] <nothingssomethin> cause i don't got it on my laptop
[04:43] <nothingssomethin> untill the card starts working
[04:43] <dan1> hello everyone, i'm measuring performance of usb flash drive. benchmark prog (iozone) reports read speeds of, as an example, 1261238 kbytes/sec
[04:44] <nothingssomethin> but the card looks like it's working just fine i don't understand
[04:44] <dan1> this is clearly way too high, i have turned off caching, but these results cannot be right. can anyone help explain/suggest why
[04:44] <pike_> dan1: well.. flash is fast ;p
[04:44] <computa_Mike> kitchie : the source code I am trying to compile has a load of .c files and a makefile - no configure file...
[04:45] <bthoem> I need to change the default OS to boot in GRUB. What is the way to change that?
[04:45] <kitche> computa_Mike: then just run make
[04:45] <tamy> ablarme
[04:45] <dan1> pike: i tested on mac,  uncached read 10 megs/sec, manufacturer reports similar
[04:45] <tamy> oie mi msn
[04:45] <tamy> es
[04:45] <tamy> rizito_oro_625
[04:46] <blubbi> hi all
[04:46] <computa_Mike> Kitchie: ok  I have ran make and I get the following error : make[1] : *** No rule to make target `Source'.  Stop.
[04:46] <Ryarlyegh> anyone here who can help me with some nvidia problems
[04:46] <jrib> bthoem: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, look for the line that says "default"
[04:46] <dan1> flash is fast but not over 1gb/sec
[04:46] <Ryarlyegh> I just bought a new card, put it in my computer, but my 3d still doesn't seem to work
[04:46] <blubbi> I am new to ubunt... where can I find a package for isapnptools
[04:46] <kitche> dan1: umm it's more like 153.959717 megabytes
[04:47] <Ryarlyegh> I tried the restricted drivers, but it fails with the bootup and forces me to reconfigure my nvidia driver to nv-driver, which kinda sucks
[04:47] <dan1> kitchie...divide by 1024 to get meg/sec?
[04:47] <MrOtacon> anyone here use beryl?
[04:47] <jrib> MrOtacon: try #ubuntu-effects, but ask a specific question
[04:47] <MrOtacon> jrib: thanks
[04:48] <dr_willis> !find isapnp
[04:48] <ubotu> File isapnp found in module-init-tools
[04:48] <dan1> kitchie: how are you getting that figure
[04:49] <kitche> dan1: from google sicne I forgot how to do the math for it myself lol
[04:49] <r0t> does ubuntu 7.04 work on Intel core 2 duo desktop processor with Intel 965 chipset (D965RY Motherboard)
[04:49] <calc> r0t: thats what i run it on
[04:50] <calc> r0t: a c2d 6300 with P965 here
[04:50] <dan1> kitchie: what did you put into google to convert
[04:50] <calc> r0t: not the exact same motherboard though
[04:50] <kitche> dan1: the kilobyte number to MB
[04:50] <r0t> calc: ok. The older ubuntu versions did not work
[04:51] <dan1> 1 261 238 kilobytes = 1 231.67773 megabytes
[04:51] <kitche> dan1: but it does seem like to be 1 gig
[04:51] <dan1> yep, how could linux be reporting this write speed, i'm clearly doing something wrong
[04:52] <dan1> sorry read speed, but write is too high also
[04:52] <blubbi> could anybody tell me if isapnptools is in the repository?
[04:52] <dr_willis> we talkinbg a factor of 10 or 100x too high? :)
[04:52] <blubbi> I searched in Adept Manager... but no results
[04:52] <dr_willis> !find isapnptools
[04:52] <Hamish> Hello, I'm looking to install a dual boot Windows-Ubuntu, and I found a good guide on the internet
[04:52] <ubotu> Package/file isapnptools does not exist in feisty
[04:52] <blubbi> !find isapnptools
[04:52] <Hamish> But there is a problem,
[04:53] <blubbi> dr_willis: ?
[04:53] <Hamish> The screenshots in the guide look a little different than my install program
[04:53] <dr_willis> I aint had to mess with isa stuff in ages.. lets see
[04:53] <Hamish> I can't find an option to resize the partition
[04:53] <calc> r0t: i think 6.10 worked for me too, but i don't remember for certain whether i used that or just a preview cd for 7.04
[04:53] <dan1> willis: if you're talking to me, yes 100x too high!
[04:53] <blubbi> dr_willis: thanks
[04:53] <blubbi> dr_willis: http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/base/isapnptools
[04:53] <calc> r0t: i'm currently running gutsy on it though
[04:53] <r0t> calc: I got some strange error messages like 'failed to allocate memory resource' in the older versions
[04:53] <computa_Mike> Anybody recommend a linux distribution that I can write drivers in, because I've been plugging away with Ubuntu since this morning and I can't seem to compile the sample drivers that are on the OReilly site - anyone been able to do that?
[04:53] <blubbi> dr_willis: but it doesn't ocure in the repository
[04:54] <dr_willis> blubbi,  may of been removed in the latest releases.
[04:54] <calc> computa_Mike: did you install the linux headers for your version?
[04:54] <Hamish> There is only: Use entire disk, use largest continuous free space and manual.
[04:54] <Hamish> Which one should I use?
[04:54] <calc> computa_Mike: also what is the url for the stuff you are reading?
[04:54] <computa_Mike> calc: I have installed the headers and the kernel sources...
[04:54] <dr_willis> Hamish,  i find it best to have a spare hard drive just for linux. :) but thats not always an option.
[04:54] <pike_> computa_Mike: slackware is a good distro if ya want standardized linux and build tools. course 'good distro' can be subjective
[04:55] <Hamish> dr_willis: It's strange, in windows I have 2 hard drives but in my actual computer I can only find one.
[04:55] <dr_willis> Hamish,  failing that - i normally use a live cd. and the gparted program to resize a existing install of windows and shrink it. to have a block of unallocated drive space at the end of the drive.
[04:55] <computa_Mike> pike: naturally - I still think Ubuntu is a good distro - I use if at home and recommend it to all my friends...
[04:55] <calc> computa_Mike: which kernel was the driver information for?
[04:55] <dr_willis> Hamish,  use 'sudo fdisk -l' to see what hard drives are seen.
[04:55] <MTecknology> Will nessus have a free version that will be maintained or is going to become strictly a pay for program?
[04:55] <computa_Mike> 2.6
[04:55] <Hamish> Ok
[04:55] <dr_willis> Hamish,  you want to be VERY carefull - it would suck ifyou overwrote your windows install.
[04:55] <Hamish> I know
[04:55] <Hamish> I've read the warnings
[04:56] <computa_Mike> the document (book) i am going throught is the OReilly Linux Device Drivers Book (revision3 ) available on line
[04:56] <calc> computa_Mike: its possible 2.6 has changed too much since the document was written, otherwise it may be just some minor configuration issue
[04:56] <mez> Hi!, Whats the easiest way to upgrade to network manager 0.6.5? im new to linux :)
[04:56] <Hamish> dr_willis: It says I have sda1, sda2 and sda5
[04:56] <calc> computa_Mike: what kind of error did you get when you tried to compile it?
[04:56] <computa_Mike> i'm getting a STOP error
[04:57] <r0t> calc: have you tried running any other linux distros with your config ?
[04:57] <dr_willis> Hamish,  so you got 1 hard drive with 3 partitions it seems.  you did do 'sudo fdisk -l' (no sudo may not list them all)
[04:57] <calc> r0t: no
[04:57] <mez> Hi!, Whats the easiest way to upgrade to network manager 0.6.5? im new to linux :)
[04:57] <Hamish> I did sudo fdisk -l
[04:57] <calc> computa_Mike: can you paste the whole output to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:57] <Hamish> yes
[04:57] <computa_Mike> In particular I am geeting  *** No rule to make target `Source'.  Stop.
[04:57] <computa_Mike> calc : i'll do it now.
[04:57] <dr_willis> Hamish,  you are not confusing different drive letters under windows with different 'drives' :)  You can have 1 hard drive with 5+ partitions, c: D: e: and so on.. or ya can have several drives with 1 partition each.
[04:57] <eXistenz> Where can I get the fglrx 8.28 for ubuntu feisty?
[04:58] <Hamish> Ahh okay.
[04:58] <calc> computa_Mike: hmm thats odd, i think you could probably ask about it on kernelnewbies
[04:58] <r0t> calc: my hunch is that I have a hardware problem... none of the linux distros I have tried seemed to work
[04:58] <Hamish> So should I just use one of the partitions that I don't have anything on?
[04:58] <dr_willis> Hamish,  'drive' = book, partition, = chapters the book is divided into. :)
[04:58] <calc> computa_Mike: http://kernelnewbies.org/ irc channel on oftc
[04:58] <dr_willis> Hamish,  correct. it would be best to delete the unneeded partitions. and then let the installer use the Unallocated space.
[04:59] <Hamish> Okay.
[04:59] <computa_Mike> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27434/
[04:59] <r0t> calc: I will give ubuntu a try anyway :)
[04:59] <calc> r0t: its possible, if you have overclocked put it back at stock settings, also make sure you have up to date bios on the motherboard
[04:59] <Some_Person> I'm trying to make KDE apps have Human theme in Ubuntu; is there an Ubuntu human theme for KDE?
[04:59] <Hamish> So I'm going to delete sda5.
[04:59] <Some_Person> (note: I do not have KDE)
[04:59] <r0t> calc: hmm.. maybe i should update the bios!!
[05:00] <kitche> Some_Person: well probably not since kde apps use QT
[05:00] <Some_Person> QT?
[05:00] <Some_Person> I have KDE's kcontrol, it lets me set a theme for KDE apps
[05:00] <benmayim> I installed ubuntu606server with LAMP and created a database from the command line, but when I went to install joomla and it asked the name of the database and password, it accepted the database name, but a blank password? Is this secure?
[05:00] <calc> r0t: some 965 motherboards have had a LOT of bios updates
[05:00] <Some_Person> I just need a human theme
[05:00] <calc> r0t: so its possible yours is an old buggy one
[05:00] <r0t> calc: ok... but is it safe ?
[05:01] <kitche> benmayim: well not really but you didn't put in a password for your user
[05:01] <Hamish> dr_willis: I've deleted sda5, when I press next it says No Root File System, please select one from the partitioning menu
[05:01] <calc> r0t: as long as you follow the directions and don't power off the system while its doing the update, etc
[05:01] <benmayim> kitche, the installation never asked me for one.
[05:01] <eXistenz> anyone can help me? :)
[05:01] <Hamish> Please correct this from the partitioning menu*
[05:01] <eXistenz> I would like to get the fglrx 8.28
[05:01] <calc> r0t: do you have windows on the system too?
[05:02] <kitche> benmayim: you have to make one though the mysql command might want to read up on mysql
[05:02] <calc> computa_Mike: seems something must be wrong with your makefile
[05:02] <r0t> calc: yes WinXP it is working fine
[05:02] <computa_Mike> I'm going to try kernel Newbies - i'll let you guys know if i find anything out...
[05:02] <benmayim> And if i change it with mysqladmin, then the rest of the LAMP components probably won't be able to access mysql.
[05:02] <calc> r0t: some companies, not sure about the one that made yours have windows bios update utilities also
[05:02] <calc> r0t: so you wouldn't have to worry about booting into DOS somehow
[05:03] <r0t> calc: ok
[05:03] <dr_willis> Hamish,  you are now trying to do things manually. I would delete the partitiosn, let it write the changes to disk.. then backup and try the 'use all unallocated' space option.
[05:03] <mattm591> hello. my friend has managed to cock up there grub boot loader by reinstalling windows over the top. they still have ubuntu installed on the hdd but can't boot to it. they're also having problems booting from cdrom to repair it. is there anyway to repair it either from within windows (unlikely) or to repair it using a usb drive (hopefully!!!)
[05:03] <kitche> !grub | mattm591
[05:03] <schoolinux> Hi, I need to know something about Lenovo N200, anybody can help?
[05:03] <ubotu> mattm591: 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
[05:03] <Hamish> dr_willis: Shall I delete it from the terminal?
[05:03] <dr_willis> mattm591,  clarify the booting cdrom issue? that may be easiest to fix.
[05:03] <mez> Hi!, Whats the easiest way to upgrade to network manager 0.6.5? im new to linux :)
[05:03] <mez> Hi!, Whats the easiest way to upgrade to network manager 0.6.5? im new to linux :)
[05:03] <mez> Hi!, Whats the easiest way to upgrade to network manager 0.6.5? im new to linux :)
[05:03] <mez> :)
[05:03] <Pici> !repeat | mez
[05:03] <kitche> !repeat | mez
[05:03] <ubotu> mez: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[05:03] <r0t> calc: thanks for the info.. i will try the BIOS update and then Linux
[05:03] <dr_willis> Hamish,  i tend to use gparted, or the other fdisk tools to delete the partitions i dont want, then reboot the isntaller. :) just to be safe
[05:04] <Hamish> okay
[05:04] <mattm591> dr_willis: well i've tried to guide them through changing the boot order in bios but they have put cd rom at the top of the list and it still refuses to detect the cdrom in the drive and boots straight to win. not too sure why
[05:04] <dr_willis> mez,  'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' should update the whole system.
[05:04] <mez> ty doc
[05:04] <schoolinux> I need to know something about notebook Lenovo N200, anybody can help?
[05:04] <calc> r0t: btw what is it that Linux is failing at when you try to install?
[05:05] <dr_willis> mattm591,  they sure its a good cd? :) ive seen some pcs where ya got to hit a key for it to boot the cd.. some have a Fkey ya hit to pop up a boot this device.. list also.
[05:05] <benmayim> kitche, If I give the mysql databases a password, will the rest of the LAMP (php and apache2) be able to work with each other, or will I have to change info in their config files?
[05:05] <StatusXxX> how do i mount my ubuntu partition with ubuntu live?
[05:05] <kitche> benmayim: it only effects mysql
[05:05] <mez> Reading state information... Done
[05:05] <mez> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[05:05] <mattm591> dr_willish: they have the boot list pop up, choose cd, and it still ignores it. i did wonder if it was a corrupt cd but it loads fine in windows (as in it shows the options to install OOo and FF etc.)
[05:05] <dr_willis> mattm591,  if they cant get it to boot off a cd.. i dont think they will have much luck booting off a usb-gizmo either.
[05:05] <dan1> with hdparm i can measure read speed, but not write speed, any way to measure write speed of disk??
[05:05] <r0t> calc: it says : failed to allocate memory resource @(some address) and does not boot further
[05:05] <rockets> Is it safe to use restricted-manager with kubuntu?
[05:06] <dr_willis> matti,  showing the stuff in windows does not mean its 100%. try booting it on another pc would be a better test.
[05:06] <dr_willis> rockets,  i use it all the time.
[05:06] <benmayim> kitche, what is the command for creating a password for mysql, then I can look it up in my manual for its forms.
[05:06] <rockets> dr_willis: thanks
[05:06] <r0t> calc: some linux distros also complained about BIOS related stuff
[05:06] <mattm591> dr_willis: ok will do. if this still doesn't work, and with the theoretical option of it booting from usb is it possible to repair from that?
[05:06] <calc> r0t: oh ok, yea the bios update might help there, worth a shot anyway
[05:06] <rockets> dr_willis: because it really is great :-D and I don't want to give it up now that I'm using kubuntu
[05:07] <kitche> benmayim: it's mysql query
[05:07] <brian1> I really need somebodies help sorting things out for installing apps. Everytime I try to install something (even with the add/remove ) I get the error: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[05:07] <brian1> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[05:07] <brian1> Im a beginner so I don't even know where to start. I want to sort this out so I can install the new ubuntu updates and flash. Can anybody help?
[05:07] <Some_Person> So there is no Ubuntu Human KDE theme?
[05:07] <dr_willis> mattm591,  ive never had much luck booting usb gizmos. you may be able to find some mini-disrto to install to usb devvice and boot it.
[05:07] <dan1> anyone know how to measure disk write speed in linux?
[05:07] <rockets> Some_Person: there is no officail one
[05:07] <benmayim> kitche, you mean "mysql query" ?
[05:07] <mattm591> dr_willis: ok thanks a lot for your help i'll see what can be done!
[05:07] <dr_willis> dan1,  thers some benchmark tools for that.
[05:07] <dr_willis> !info bonnie
[05:07] <pike_> dan1: sudo hdparm -tT /dev/hda    for example
[05:07] <ubotu> Package bonnie does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:07] <kitche> benmayim: you have to put the password in using an query pretty much
[05:07] <r0t> calc: cool, i will update the bios then, Thanks for the help
[05:07] <dr_willis> !info find benchmark
[05:08] <ubotu> Package find does not exist in feisty
[05:08] <kitche> benmayim: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/set-password.html
[05:08] <Hamish> dr_willis: I now have sda1 and 16 GiB unallocated.
[05:08] <Hamish> Is that what I want?
[05:08] <dr_willis> Hamish,  that will give ya 16gb for linux tyo install to.. that should be good
[05:08] <Hamish> okay
[05:08] <MSIGuy> So what media player does everyone like?
[05:08] <benmayim> kitche, I mean, what is the exact wording for the command.
[05:09] <MSIGuy> Do people really use Totem?
[05:09] <kitche> benmayim: SET PASSWORD [FOR user]  = PASSWORD('some password')
[05:09] <dan1> dr_willis: i don't think bonnie can be used on external disks or network share??
[05:09] <brian1> please anyone?
[05:09] <calc> r0t: looks like intel released a new bios every week for a while
[05:09] <dr_willis> dan1,  external = usb - i dotn see why not..  network shares - no idea.
[05:09] <dray> Hello folks, hope you can help me. Running xbuntu, using the 'add/remove programs' feature to install a few programs.  it goes through its usual update, i pick a simple small program, worked fine last night, today it just hangs ....  so, how can this be fixed/updated/removed?
[05:10] <dan1>  Timing cached reads:   2266 MB in  2.00 seconds = 1133.99 MB/sec
[05:10] <alesan> hi
[05:10] <StatusXxX> How did you boot to single user mode?
[05:10] <dr_willis> dray,  try 'sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' from the shell.
[05:10] <alesan> I see my openoffice installation lacks ALL the icons like the buttons etc
[05:10] <alesan> should I reinstall something? any idea?
[05:10] <dan1> is buffered basically uncached or what is the difference between buffered and cached read?
[05:11] <alesan> in the toolbar in the dialog boxes all the icons are missing
[05:11] <Hamish> dr_willis: Now in the installer I should choose: Guided: Use the largest continuous free space, is that right?
[05:11] <dray> thanks dr, would you know the pid/process name for the add/remove program so I can kill it? i have a feeling it might interfere with any apt commands i run
[05:11] <dr_willis> Hamish,  yep.
[05:11] <kitche> dan1: buffered is cached
[05:11] <linuxor> HI, How to change the owner of a repertory?? thx
[05:12] <Hamish> hmm
[05:12] <Hamish> It can't import data from Windows 2000?
[05:12] <dr_willis> dray,  use 'ps ax' and look i guess..  apt-get will spit out a warning if its cant get a lock.
[05:12] <StatusXxX> How do you boot in single user mode?
[05:12] <dan1> kitchie: with hdparm it reports speeds for buffered read and for cached read, what is the difference, looking thru man now!
[05:12] <kitche> StatusXxX: it's recovery mode
[05:12] <dr_willis> StatusXxX,  theres a rescue/recovery mode in the grub menus normally.
[05:12] <StatusXxX> dr_willis well i dont have one
[05:12] <Tiia-> .tut.fi
[05:12] <StatusXxX> and the system is broken
[05:13] <neozen> meep!
[05:13] <dr_willis> StatusXxX,  so what entrys do you have in the grub menus?
[05:13] <StatusXxX> dr_willis only the one
[05:14] <StatusXxX> that boots normally
[05:14] <StatusXxX> i need to boot from grubs command line
[05:14] <dr_willis> StatusXxX,  use the 'e' to edit the boot options for that entry and append 'single' to the end of the kernel= line.
[05:14] <dr_willis> similer to    kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=UUID=b089b9c2-9b6a-4cda-a096-4c02be27da0d ro single
[05:15] <geoffthefish> i just installed 6.06 server but it failed to detect my network card (compaq presario sr50), how should i proceed?
[05:15] <StatusXxX> ok
[05:15] <dr_willis> your uuid will vary. :) of course.
[05:15] <dr_willis> pike_,  uuid saved me a lot of grief when i moved a lot of hds around last week. :)
[05:15] <kamavedita> ae
[05:15] <dr_willis> i normally set up fstab to mount based on Label. :) looks nicer that way
[05:16] <brian1> I really need somebodies help sorting things out for installing apps. Everytime I try to install something (even with the add/remove ) I get the error: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[05:16] <brian1> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[05:16] <brian1> Im a beginner so I don't even know where to start. I want to sort this out so I can install the new ubuntu updates and flash. Can anybody help?
[05:16] <fritz> can you help me with the transparency feature in kubuntu .....i found the translucrency feature in kcontrol but it doesen't work
[05:16] <fritz> http://dot.kde.org/1179921215/1179939974/1179941671/1180012629/
[05:16] <fritz> 1. Make sure your xorg graphics driver has composite support and that you have composite turned on in your xorg.conf.
[05:16] <fritz> can any1 translate that?
[05:17] <dr_willis> brian1,  as the error suggests.. run that command as the root user.   'sudo dpkg --configure -a'
[05:17] <StatusXxX> How am i supposed to fsck my main filesystem?
[05:17] <Pici> fritz: you might want to try asking in #kubuntu
[05:17] <StatusXxX> its mounted
[05:17] <Hamish> dr_willis: After installing, would it be possible to ever decrease the size of the windows partition and increase the size of the ubuntu one?
[05:17] <Hamish> Incase I need more space?
[05:18] <dr_willis> Hamish,  yea. proberly easier to just add a 2nd hard drive. :)
[05:18] <dr_willis> Hamish,  given how cheap they are these days.. unless this is a laptop.
[05:18] <kapistus> Erhm, could someone give me a hand here? i'm still new to this and eh.. I have no idea how to install Half-life 2, haha
[05:18] <khermans_> is there an advanced ubuntu help channel?
[05:18] <Hamish> nah its a desktop
[05:18] <brian1> dr_willis: I tried that and got Usage: command-not-found [options]  <command-name>
[05:18] <dr_willis> kapistus,  thats more of a cedega/wine issue. :) and im sure googling willget some hits.
[05:18] <linuxor> HI, How to change the owner of a repertory?? thx
[05:18] <johndoc> crossover office is starting to port a few games
[05:18] <dr_willis> brian1,  i would say you did a typo.
[05:19] <Pici> StatusXxX: Drop into single user mode, it unmounts all the filesystems
[05:19] <khermans_> kapistus, look at cedega
[05:19] <dr_willis> brian1,  you dident include the  quotes did you....
[05:19] <kapistus> dr_willis, i installed wine just a moment ago but it makes no difference.
[05:19] <osxdude|laptop> is cedega better than wine?
[05:19] <johndoc> kapistus: are you willing to pay?
[05:19] <khermans_> osxdude|laptop, for games yes
[05:19] <johndoc> cedega is just like wine
[05:19] <dr_willis> kapistus,  makes no differance... how... vague.. :)
[05:19] <kapistus> johndoc, err... No?
[05:19] <brian1> dr_willis: I did, I'll take them out
[05:19] <johndoc> it just automates some things
[05:19] <johndoc> then use wine kapistus
[05:19] <mattm591> can anyone help me try and get my internal bluetooth working on my laptop. i'm 90% sure I have it but ubuntu doesn't seem to want to use it... i've installed bluez-utils and gnome-bluetooth or something but it still can't be detected by other bluetooth devices
[05:19] <khermans_> johndoc, it is true that cedega is based on wine
[05:19] <osxdude|laptop> my wine is messed up so thanks.
[05:20] <khermans_> osxdude|laptop, how so?
[05:20] <johndoc> no, it's true that cedega is built on top of wine
[05:20] <kapistus> But all i have is "Wine config" And "Wine regedit" or something like that.
[05:20] <johndoc> lolz
[05:20] <khermans_> osxdude|laptop, just go grab the latest binary for your distro
[05:20] <kitche> khermans_: well cedega was called winex
[05:20] <johndoc> exactly
[05:20] <khermans_> kitche, yes of course
[05:20] <brian1> dr_willis: Now it asks for a password, but it doesn't allow me to type at all
[05:20] <kapistus> Okay, would you tell me what to do with them?
[05:20] <Neil-> christ, how can I stop gaim stealing focus everytime someone says a message in irc?
[05:20] <osxdude|laptop> It only shows th first word on each line in dialogs and installer windows.
[05:20] <Neil-> anyone know?!
[05:20] <khermans_> brian1, you are typing
[05:20] <UrbanMystic> hi, i am facing a problem when booting up on ubuntu

[05:20] <kbrooks> Can I talk simplicity in here related to Ubuntu? :-)
[05:21] <UrbanMystic> when gnome starts to load, it some how hangs
[05:21] <osxdude|laptop> yes
[05:21] <UrbanMystic> is anyone facing the same problem?
[05:21] <brian1> khermans: on the terminal
[05:21] <cmontara> hola
[05:21] <johndoc> kapistus, you should google for something like wine "game name"
[05:21] <johndoc> maybe even throw the distro name in the query
[05:21] <kapistus> Hmm, okay, i'll try that.
[05:21] <vistakiller> what game?
[05:21] <magnetron> http://appdb.winehq.org/    johndoc kapistus
[05:21] <dan1> pike: think i have this figured out, for anyone who may encounter a similar problem

[05:22] <dan1> the -U option with iozone unmounts the device between each test. using this option, i am getting much more believable results (approx 10-15 megs/sec read and write)
[05:22] <mattm591> does anyone know what I can do to try and find out if my laptop has bluetooth?
[05:23] <dan1> i think this prevents linux cache from helping out!
[05:23] <kitche> mattm591: umm go to it's website and look it up?
[05:23] <mat1980> UrbanMystic: never. Have you enough free space?
[05:23] <brian1> dr_willis: I think I may have gotten it to work
[05:23] <mattm591> kitche: yes the website thinks it does, but ubuntu thinks it doesnt
[05:23] <dan1> i also use -e option to turn of caching, but this didn't seem to have much effect. anyway, thanks for discussion guys
[05:23] <osxdude|laptop> mattm591: usually most laptops but a bluetooth light on.
[05:23] <dray> dr, i think that command you gave me is recplacing the entire contents of my hard drive .. j/k
[05:23] <UrbanMystic> mat1980, in my home partition? yes i do
[05:24] <mattm591> osxdue: mine doesn't have anywhere for a bluetooth light. its internal.  it does have a hot key to turn it on and off though
[05:24] <UrbanMystic> even in my root partition i have enough

[05:26] <olliwolli> hi, does somebody know a reason, why org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.SystemPowerManagement does not emit any signals. I want to build an application that does something when before/after the computer goes to suspend.
[05:26] <Lee_Pepper> is there any one who could help me in identifying a distro by a python script (eg. ident ubuntu from debian??)
[05:26] <koen_> koen
[05:26] <UrbanMystic> nope no messages come up
[05:27] <mattm591> so is there no command to see if ubuntu has detected my bluetooth as being present?
[05:27] <UrbanMystic> actually it doesnt hang always, but it takes just too long to load
[05:28] <dr_willis> mattm591,  check dmesg output?
[05:28] <jrib> Lee_Pepper: what do you mean?  use lsb_release?
[05:28] <UrbanMystic> maybe half hour or so, i dont know coz i restart the GUI and login again and again until it works
[05:28] <dawkirst> Hello, how can I know if Ubuntu 7.04 will work on my Compaq Presario 700 laptop?
[05:28] <dr_willis> Lee_Pepper,  lsb_release  -a
[05:28] <Lee_Pepper> jrib: never heard of that is it a file i can read and get the distro  and version etc??
[05:28] <jrib> dawkirst: try the desktop cd, it is also a live cd you can try straight from the cd drive
[05:29] <dr_willis> Lee_Pepper,  its a command. :)
[05:29] <Neil-> Whats that app you can start in a console, and it shows all keystrokes/events?
[05:29] <jrib> Lee_Pepper: you can use "lsb_release -appropriate_switch' or read /etc/lsb-release

[05:29] <koen_> hi, i have a question about gnome panels: how to have the normal right-button features (like "lock to panel", "move" etc.) on panel-icons which have their own right-click menu (like gaim and nerworkmanager applet)
[05:29] <Lee_Pepper> thank you guys...
[05:29] <mat1980> UrbanMystic: /var/log/messages or /var/log/user.log do contain something about this?
[05:29] <Lee_Pepper> exactly what i needed
[05:30] <UrbanMystic> let me see
[05:30] <dawkirst> jrib, thanks, but then I'll only know for certain when I've tried it for an extensive time using the live CD, or when I've already installed it. Isn't there a way to be certain it'll work before any of that?
[05:30] <jrib> !laptop > dawkirst (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:30] <mattm591> dr_willis: so does this (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27436/) show that a bluetooth receiver is present
[05:30] <jrib> dawkirst: if it loads the desktop you are in good shape... if it doesn't it still might work
[05:31] <dr_willis> mattm591,  looks like its seeing it and initlizing it..
[05:31] <dawkirst> jrib, thanks a million :)
[05:31] <mattm591> dr_willis: so why is it that i can't use it!!!!
[05:31] <dr_willis> mattm591,  i would guess its not configured right yet.
[05:32] <dr_willis> mattm591,  i recall some pin file/command from using bluetooth a few months back
[05:32] <dr_willis> !find bluetooth
[05:32] <ubotu> Found: kdebluetooth, kdebluetooth-irmcsync, libbluetooth2, libbluetooth2-dev, bluetooth (and 3 others)
[05:32] <bethko> How do I get ahold of someone on the gusty dev team?
[05:32] <Hamish> dr_willis: The install program is removing things, is that normal?
[05:32] <dr_willis> mattm591,  and then i used it under KDE. so i ran the kdebluetooth service.
[05:33] <dr_willis> Hamish,  depends.. if it updating things.. it will remove the old/install the new
[05:33] <Hamish> okay
[05:33] <mattm591> dr_willis: i do have the ubuntu bluetooth service installed but that doesn't think it exsists
[05:33] <Hamish> well it's finished now
[05:33] <Hamish> So I'm going to reboot.
[05:33] <Hamish> thanks for your help
[05:33] <osxdude|laptop> mattm591: reinstall
[05:33] <UrbanMystic> mat1980, i have pasted the log here: http://pastebin.com/937574
[05:33] <UrbanMystic> see if u can see any important msg
[05:33] <dr_willis> mattm591,  there may be some bluetooth wiki/forum pages fr using them under gnome. ive only used one under kde.
[05:34] <UrbanMystic> i also tried to delete the .gnome* directories from my home folder
[05:34] <mattm591> dr_willis: ok then... i'll look over it again, it just seems to be telling me to install these packages and expect it to work!
[05:34] <bethko> How do I contact the devolopment team?
[05:34] <UrbanMystic> i believe that resets the setting. correct me if i am wrong
[05:35] <dr_willis> mattm591,   bluetooth is one of those 'never quite works right'; things from what ive seen.. evenunder windows..  its always been flakey for me.
[05:35] <osxdude|laptop> UrbanMystic, it probably will.
[05:35] <UrbanMystic> but even that doesn't work every time
[05:35] <mattm591> dr_willis: i may have to spend on an adapter that is known to work.. gutted that i have it already but just can't use it!
[05:35] <bethko> There are no contacts on the blue prints page and I know this is the wrong chat.
[05:36] <kitche> bethko: http://www.canonical.com
[05:36] <bethko> Thats the company
[05:36] <kitche> bethko: they are also the developers
[05:36] <twisties> Can anyone help me setting up dual-monitors correctly?
[05:36] <bethko> I need the chat room
[05:36] <dr_willis> twisties,  what video card?
[05:37] <kitche> bethko: none of the developers use irc really
[05:37] <twisties> dr_willis: nVidia 7900GS 512
[05:37] <dr_willis> 'need'  heh.
[05:37] <twisties> Ive got the nVidia driver installed
[05:37] <dr_willis> twisties,  nvidia includes a command line tool that can tweak the xorg.conf to set them up. what kind of montior setup ya got?

[05:37] <mari_13> ola
[05:37] <mari_13> ola
[05:37] <dr_willis> twisties,  #1 thing to rember is BACKUP your working xorg.conf file.
[05:37] <mari_13> hello
[05:37] <kitche> bethkot but it's #ubuntu-dev
[05:37] <bethko> yeah, talking and writing code don't really mix but still

[05:38] <twisties> ive got a 19inch benq lcd on the right of a 17inch acer crt
[05:38] <bethko> Thank you! :)
[05:38] <dr_willis> twisties,  well backup ya xorg.conf ad check out     nvidia-xconfig  -A
[05:38] <dr_willis> I got a lcd/tv here.. so my xor5g.conf is not going to be quite the same as yours will be
[05:39] <twisties> will do dr_willis.
[05:39] <Fallenou> hello, i have some kernel panic problem , here are all informations about my problem : http://fallen.yozora-irc.net/photos/panic/
[05:39] <Fallenou> if you want more information just ask me :s
[05:39] <dr_willis> twisties,   nvidia-xconfig  -twinview
[05:39] <Fallenou> thank you in advance :)
[05:39] <client05> san
[05:39] <dr_willis> twisties,  will MOST likely get them both working. :) hopefully
[05:39] <mat1980> UrbanMystic: please paste ~/.xsession-errors
[05:40] <twisties> well ive had it working the way i liked once before
[05:40] <koen_> hey. how to move icons on your gnome panel like the gaim icon, and the nerworkmanager icon?
[05:40] <dr_willis> twisties,  you now know why i keep dated/archives of my xorg.conf files. :)
[05:40] <twisties> but at the moment I get the one panel stretched over both monitors (I previously had one on each) and windows didnt spawn right between the two screens
[05:40] <dr_willis> koen_,  cant just drag/drop them from the menu to the panel?
[05:41] <dr_willis> twisties,  thats a twinview/xinerama differance.
[05:41] <nothingssomethin> why does apt-get say it has super cow powers??? do i have a virus or something
[05:41] <dr_willis> twisties,  twinview is supposed to be 'smarter' and the apps are supposed to work better when using Twinview
[05:41] <Pici> nothingssomethin: its just a little humor
[05:41] <dr_willis> Moo!

[05:41] <genii> nothingssomethin:  Try apt-get install moo
[05:42] <dr_willis> fortune | cowsay
[05:43] <bobjones_> hi all, iam wondering if its possible that a LG L1950T is slightly incompatible with linux? or possible my nvidia 7600gt.  Ubuntor resoultion gui says its running at 50mhz, but the monitors menus states 60mhz.  Also the feisty live cd boots up with the moniter out of sync
[05:43] <koen_> dr_willis.
[05:43] <Pici> genii: its just `apt-get moo`
[05:43] <genii> Pici Sorry :)
[05:43] <nothingssomethin> lol have i mooed today
[05:43] <koen_> i mean that you move or unlock icons that already reside on the panel. dr_willis
[05:44] <dr_willis> koen_,  Hmm.. Middle click on them?
[05:44] <nothingssomethin> what is the orignal default driver for nvidia installed with ubuntu
[05:44] <UrbanMystic> http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=37712
[05:44] <kitche> nothingssomethin: nv
[05:44] <UrbanMystic> mat1980, pastebin seems to be giving prob
[05:44] <koen_> dr_willis, how to middle click on my laptop :P i dont have a middle mouse button on my touchpad
[05:44] <UrbanMystic> so i pasted here: http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=37712
[05:45] <dr_willis> koen_,  'cord' the buttons.. click both at same time
[05:45] <koen_> is there a short key to make the default right click menu appear
[05:45] <nothingssomethin> it can't find that package
[05:45] <ibanex> hi all, is there a way to check a version of a package with apt-get?
[05:45] <koen_> dr_willis. doesnt work
[05:45] <richee> !bluetooth
[05:45] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:45] <dr_willis> koen_,  you may not have mouse-cording setup in the xorg.conf  then. It works that way with my laptop.
[05:46] <twisties> WOO
[05:46] <Pici> ibanex: apt-cache policy packagename
[05:46] <ibanex> koen_: you can use xmodmap to redirect a key to a pointer button as well
[05:46] <twisties> dr_willis: ok, now to reset all the custom panels
[05:46] <twisties> oh and change the resolution on the crt
[05:46] <ibanex> Pici: great, thanks
[05:46] <nothingssomethin> !nvidia
[05:46] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:47] <twisties> dr_wllis: How does one go about changing the res on the crt (screen 0) to 1280x1024 from command line?
[05:47] <dr_willis> twisties,  some programs are still stupid about where they position things.
[05:47] <twisties> yeah
[05:47] <dr_willis> twisties,  could manually edit the xorg.conf i guess.. ive not had to tweak them much on my system
[05:47] <twisties> ill survive. its mainly vlc or mplayer. I want them to fullscreen in one screen only
[05:47] <dr_willis> twisties,  may be some xrand tool to let ya change them on the fly
[05:48] <bobjones_> hi all, iam wondering if its possible that a LG L1950T is slightly incompatible with linux? or possible my nvidia 7600gt.  Ubuntu resoultion gui says its running at 50mhz, but the monitors menus states 60mhz.  Also the feisty live cd boots up with the moniter out of sync
[05:48] <dr_willis> twisties,  ive gotten xine/vlc/mplayer to be on monitor #2 (my tv) full screened Just fine. :)
[05:48] <twisties> awesome
[05:48] <twisties> i had it working brilliantly
[05:48] <twisties> untill running beryl with dual screens screwed it all up
[05:49] <ibanex> koen_: this may help, check out the xmodmap script http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/installation/84538-right-clicking-macbook.html
[05:50] <jrib> bobjones_: mine does that too, nvidia-settings says 60 too, so I just assume the screen resolution program is wrong
[05:50] <nothingssomethin> lspci|grep what is the middle symbol on my keyboard
[05:50] <r0t> calc: i went through the release notes for the BIOS updates and it seems that the errors reported by Linux seem to have been fixed
[05:50] <johndoc> hey jrib
[05:50] <Pici> nothingssomethin: its a pipe, its shift-\
[05:50] <jrib> johndoc: hi
[05:50] <Pici> nothingssomethin: At least on US keyboards.
[05:50] <ttuuxxx> here's a question if you can download a beta version of vista/longhorn and its image is compressed from 769MB to 1.44MB then why doesn't ubuntu do this also, ?
[05:50] <nothingssomethin> aaah ok
[05:51] <computa_Mike> mat1980 - found out why i couldn't compile my drivers - they were stored in a folder called "Oreilly Examples" - following advice from kernel Newbies I renamed the folder removing the space and all of a sudden they compile... and work.
[05:51] <jrib> !minimal > ttuuxxx (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:51] <voici> hi, how can i find out which daemon is listening on a specific port on localhost. for example i have a ftp-service running on 21. how would i find out which ftp-daemon it would be?
[05:51] <s-mc> Q: can i use .deb packages on ubuntu
[05:51] <s-mc> ?
[05:51] <nothingssomethin> how do i un freze an action
[05:51] <nothingssomethin> in term
[05:51] <Pici> s-mc: Yes, debs are the standard Ubuntu package format
[05:51] <jrib> s-mc: only if they are .deb packages for your version of ubuntu.  Use the repos first if it is in the repos.  What do you want to install?
[05:52] <ttuuxxx> thanks jrib
[05:52] <twisties> dr_wliis: Ok where does one look in the xorg.conf for screen res and what does one change?
[05:52] <nickrud> voici, sudo netstat -tlpn
[05:52] <voici> nickrud: tnx
[05:52] <s-mc> looking at webmin, need a gui for bind. (windows has spoilt me)
[05:52] <dr_willis> twisties,  now is the time to read up on xorg.conf :) its not too complex a file. but theres a lot of room to make typos/errors.
[05:53] <dr_willis> twisties,  nvidia has a lotof docs on their specific twinview settings/options also.
[05:53] <ttuuxxx> sorry just every time i download ubuntu its usually over 700mb and a supercompessed iso at 1.44mb would be so much better for both
[05:53] <dr_willis> twisties,  i THINK you want to mess with the 'metamodes' feature of twinview
[05:54] <twisties> ok, if i use the GUI (i know im lazy) to change the res will it screw up any of my other options?
[05:54] <dr_willis> twisties,  not sure what gui you are refering to.
[05:54] <bobjones_> jrib: ok cool, checked nvidia display settings aswell, says 60 too.  do you think the live cd booting up with monitor out of sync is anything to worry about, i guess i could always grab the alternate install cd.  the fedore 7 live cd also dosent work, the monitor is in sync, but the screen is garbeled
[05:54] <dr_willis> twisties,  theres the xrand stuff that can change the res on a per user basis.
[05:54] <dr_willis>  Option         "MetaModes" "nvidia-auto-select, nvidia-auto-select"     - is what i got in my xorg.conf
[05:54] <jrib> bobjones_: nothing wrong with using the alternate cd, I prefer it
[05:54] <dr_willis> twisties,  so both my monitors are set to autoselect. it seems
[05:54] <nothingssomethin> i was soposto input this command..... lspci|grep-invidia...... but instead i just intered this one and now it is froze just a  blinking dot... grep-invidia
[05:55] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  its not froze.. its waiting for input.
[05:55] <kitche> nothingssomethin: ctrl+C
[05:55] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  hit ctrl-c
[05:55] <twisties> i was referring to nvidia-settings GUI
[05:55] <nothingssomethin> wow yall are cool
[05:55] <dr_willis> Bash 101 stuff. :)
[05:55] <dr_willis> twisties,  cant say that ive ever used that. :)
[05:55] <nothingssomethin> synpact package manager
[05:56] <kitche> it's not even bash it has to deal with how the shell knows
[05:56] <nothingssomethin> search for nvidia
[05:56] <dr_willis> twisties,  when in doubt.. BACKUP your working xorg.conf :)
[05:56] <mylogic> backup everything you do O.o
[05:56] <mylogic> configs especially
[05:56] <wobx> mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /dev/null
[05:56] <dr_willis> twisties,  and if ya run that with 'sudo nvidia-settings' it should change the xorg.conf (i think)
[05:56] <mat1980> UrbanMystic: can't find something useful. filemp3-c.c:line518(III_huffman_decode):assertionfailed:(i<=SSLIMIT*SBLIMIT) could be the problem, but I'm not sure at all. Could be that gnome tries to start rhythmbox and then stops after its crash? Does rhythmbox start automatically on startup?
[05:57] <mat1980> computa_Mike: ok, well done!
[05:57] <twisties> dr_willis: yeah i've learned to sudo that when opening it otherwise it doesnt save the xorg and restarting X just resets it all
[05:57] <dan1> anyone know if it is possible to run ubuntu fiesty on mac pro?
[05:57] <dan1> native
[05:57] <Music_Shuffle> Yeah.
[05:58] <dr_willis> twisties,  makes logical sence to me. :)
[05:58] <nick_> hi all

[06:01] <s-mc> q: when using package installer it tells me i need to install 4 other items so the package i want will work, will i tgrab me these other packages or do i need to write them down then get them myself ?
[06:01] <Firebird> or are you planning to use
[06:01] <bobjones_> intel dp965lt
[06:01] <twisties> ok dr_willis: got the res working perfectly and looks beautiful. now to add the panel to the right monitor and i'll be happy
[06:01] <Firebird> k :)
[06:01] <dr_willis> twisties,  i just make a new panel. and drag it over there.
[06:01] <dr_willis> :)
[06:01] <mat1980> nick_: are you talking about http://www.joost.com/ ?
[06:01] <dr_willis> i got a side panel on the tv to launch a few apps..
[06:01] <twisties> yup exactly what i did last time
[06:01] <iphv37> how do i get jack starting?

[06:02] <nick_> tryed to installed worked fine then gave me a error
[06:03] <demian> does anyone know how I can find and correct clusters om my harddrive?
[06:03] <neozen> demian: as in.... fix errors in your filesystem?
[06:03] <neozen> try fsck
[06:03] <demian> everytime ubuntu tries fsck it says the disk is dammaged
[06:03] <neozen> O.o
[06:03] <jetscreamer> shutdown -Fr now
[06:03] <neozen> might be time to buy a new one
[06:03] <walkover> a c programming question... I want to make my program able to handle arguments but i everytime i make an if statement saying something like if(argv[1]  == "string") it always go false. I know the stuff about that argv[0]  is the name of the program and then 1 is the first arguments so thats not it. Any suggestions?
[06:04] <demian> neozen: no the hardware
[06:04] <jetscreamer> if that doesn't work get a new drive
[06:04] <jetscreamer> or try dd'ing it clean
[06:04] <neozen> .......................
[06:04] <fuzzy_logic> demian: do you get any further information about what is damaged?
[06:04] <neozen> mound read only and backup data first
[06:04] <demian> fuzzy_logic: no
[06:04] <neozen> *mount
[06:04] <jetscreamer> just buy a new one and restore from that backup you make every night
[06:05] <jetscreamer> yes, that backup
[06:05] <neozen> that's cold
[06:05] <demian> just buy a new one! I wish :)
[06:05] <Music_Shuffle> jetscreamer, oh THAT backup?  ;)
[06:06] <Pici> walkover: Try asking in ##c
[06:06] <bobjones_> thanks all, seeyas
[06:06] <demian> can I unmount and then mount the hardrive I've got ubuntu runnung?
[06:06] <jetscreamer> demian: so fsck errors out when it's fsck'ing on_boot?
[06:07] <jetscreamer> yes you can but shutdown -Fr now will do it when you boot up
[06:07] <mat1980> walkover: http://www-ccs.ucsd.edu/c/string.html#strcmp
[06:07] <jetscreamer> you need to remount it ro if you want to do it inplace
[06:07] <walkover> thanks mat1980 and Pici
[06:07] <demian> I'll first try the shutdown with -Fr
[06:08] <jetscreamer> you can also touch /forcefsck for the same result
[06:08] <twisties> WOOT! dual-monitors working once again!
[06:09] <terlmann> parameters set.... finalizing target...

[06:11] <crolle17> searching for a string inside these files...
[06:12] <jetscreamer> grep -i what where
[06:12] <dr_willis> voici,  the 'fuse' tools let you do that in a nice way
[06:12] <demian> ehm... no
[06:12] <demian> I rebooted with the splash on
[06:12] <Fragility> is there any reason no website thinks it is relevent to explain how to upgrade drivers?
[06:12] <d3v1l88> hi
[06:12] <jetscreamer> you should just know
[06:12] <d3v1l88> hello
[06:12] <demian> bu while doing zo I thought of another question
[06:12] <vin> list
[06:12] <kitche> Fragility: well because you just install the drivers
[06:12] <Fragility> because I just installed ubuntu for the first time and pretty much nthing is supported
[06:12] <dr_willis> Fragility,  'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' normally does it.
[06:13] <demian> is there a way to isolate bad clusters
[06:13] <Fragility> and I downloaded the drive for into graphics and it doesnt go
[06:13] <Fragility> ty
[06:13] <dr_willis> Fragility,  you normally DONT download drivers from the nvidia or whever site..
[06:13] <kitche> Fragility: what video card?
[06:13] <jetscreamer> heh
[06:13] <dr_willis> Fragility,  you use the package manager to install them
[06:13] <jetscreamer> or do you.. sounds like nvidia or ati to me
[06:13] <Fallenou> hello, i have some kernel panic problem , here are all informations about my problem : http://fallen.yozora-irc.net/photos/panic/
[06:13] <dr_willis> !info restricted-manager
[06:13] <ubotu> restricted-manager: manage non-free hardware drivers. In component main, is optional. Version 0.20 (feisty), package size 32 kB, installed size 300 kB
[06:14] <Fragility> yeah I downloaded a driver from intel and clicking to install isnt working, though it is an application
[06:14] <neztiti> hi guys
[06:14] <Fragility> I guess that explains why the website for intel support on ubuntu doesnt actually have a download link?
[06:14] <Fragility> (even when you click on 'download)
[06:14] <jetscreamer> try ./installerthingy
[06:14] <dr_willis> Fragility,   for what video card? most intel cards are allredy included.
[06:14] <the_fury_> I get an MD5Sum mismatch fetch error for literally every package I've attempted to install

[06:15] <Fallenou> 3.JPG
[06:16] <the_fury_> I am getting an MD5Sum mismatch for every package I attempt to install
[06:16] <MaddMaxx> I have Ubuntu installed on hdb, but I cannot see hdb from Computer at all.
[06:16] <the_fury_> any ideas?
[06:16] <MaddMaxx> Any ideas?
[06:16] <crolle17> jetscreamer, option -i means ignore case
[06:16] <magnetron> any ideas?
[06:16] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: what do you mean, "cannot see hdb"?
[06:16] <neztiti> any one know where to put the softcam in the vdr??
[06:17] <MaddMaxx> I mean I cannot view it at all through the GUI.
[06:17] <crolle17> jetscreamer, does it searches in subdirectories too?
[06:17] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx,   try the 'mount' command and see whats mounted where.
[06:17] <MaddMaxx> How do I do that?
[06:17] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: view what, exactly? the filesystem?
[06:17] <Gnea> aaaah
[06:17] <Gnea> you need a newbie guide then
[06:17] <MaddMaxx> View the filesystem, add/remove files, etc.
[06:17] <MaddMaxx> Fuck that. ^-^
[06:18] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: can you open a web browser?
[06:18] <MaddMaxx> Yes.
[06:18] <crolle17> lol
[06:18] <magnetron> !language | MaddMaxx
[06:18] <ubotu> MaddMaxx: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:18] <MaddMaxx> Everything runs and my other hds look fine.
[06:18] <Fallenou> kitche < 3.JPG
[06:18] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: uh, no. we wrote such guides so that we don't have to repeat ourselves.
[06:18] <MaddMaxx> Gnea: it good exercise.
[06:19] <MaddMaxx> And if I check my drives with mount, it shows that /dev/hdb1 and /dev/hdb2 are there
[06:20] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx,  and where does it show them mounted TO?
[06:20] <MaddMaxx> But only hdba stuff shows up in Computer.
[06:20] <MaddMaxx> Ohh, that's a good question, one moment.
[06:20] <dr_willis>  /me wonders if this is the .hidden thing that was in Dapper Drake ...
[06:20] <MaddMaxx>  / type ext3
[06:21] <dr_willis> maddler,  if its mounted to / - then you are using it.. its the root drive..
[06:21] <kitche> Fallenou:you have it as root (hd0,1) that loosk wrong
[06:21] <dr_willis> oops wrong nick. :0
[06:21] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx, ,  if its mounted to / - then you are using it.. its the root drive..
[06:21] <MaddMaxx> Well, hrmm.
[06:21] <Fallenou> kitche < what looks wrong ?
[06:21] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx,   You are thinking in windows drive letter terms. :)
[06:21] <MaddMaxx> I cannot see it in computer though and it isn't automounting to the desktop like the other drives/partitions.
[06:22] <MaddMaxx> Noo, Im trying not to.
[06:22] <Fallenou> root is /boot i think in grub, so (hd0,1)
[06:22] <Fallenou> kitche < anyway root (hd0,1) works for other kernels :o
[06:22] <MaddMaxx> I like my numbered hds ^-^
[06:22] <densin> hi all. I install dovecot-pop3d , how I set it start ever time it reboot
[06:22] <MaddMaxx> Still though, if it's mounted, why can I not view it from Computer?
[06:22] <dr_willis>  MaddMaxx  if hdb1 is mounted to / - then its mounted to /   you are allready seeing it. if you want to see the root directory of it  go to '/'
[06:23] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx,   theres  no need for it to have an entry in /media/  since its above /media/ its / :)
[06:23] <mat1980> densin: update-rc.d
[06:23] <MaddMaxx> hrm, one moment.....
[06:24] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: each partition is going to be mounted to its own mount point, somewhere within the root / heirarchy (instead of c: d: e: drives and so on, you get one / filesystem and can add drives onto it in subdirectories)
[06:24] <lllllll> How do I stop GNOME hiding files from me? According to WineFile, there's a whole load of extra folders in my home folder which I can't see normally
[06:24] <mat1980> MaddMaxx: http://www.freeos.com/articles/3102/
[06:24] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: are you trying to read a usb flashdrive?
[06:25] <MaddMaxx> no.
[06:25] <GigaClon> lllllll, Ctrl+H in the file browser
[06:25] <MaddMaxx> Just regular physical internal harddrives.
[06:25] <Gnea> lllllll: dot files (files that have a . in front of them) are hidden by default. there's something in the system configuration to change that
[06:25] <MaddMaxx> okay, I see what you mean.
[06:26] <MaddMaxx> Hdb can be found in /dev/
[06:26] <lllllll> Ah, I see. Cheers
[06:26] <enrique> how can i deactivate compiz fusion?
[06:26] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: /dev/hdb is just the device file that linux uses to talk to the drive - you don't want to mess with those files directly
[06:26] <MaddMaxx> How do I make it so it also in /media?
[06:26] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: what for?
[06:26] <MaddMaxx> Or rather, viewable in /media, like my two paritions of hda?
[06:26] <MaddMaxx> So I can use it like I can use my two partitions of hda?
[06:27] <navets> does anyone know of a good php editior I can use for error checking?
[06:27] <shifoe> you have to mount it
[06:27] <shifoe> to see it in media
[06:27] <MaddMaxx> exactly.
[06:27] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: that makes no sense at all, whatsoever.
[06:27] <MaddMaxx> And I've been trying to figure out how to do that via command line for the last half hour shifoe.
[06:27] <shifoe> ic
[06:27] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: they're already mounted and running the OS, so they're already mounted - you can't remount them while they're already mounted :)
[06:27] <MaddMaxx> Yes, any ideas?
[06:28] <MaddMaxx> If they are mounted, why can I not see them in "Computer" or mount them so they are viewable on my desktop?
[06:28] <shifoe> im guessing you've tried 'mount /dev/hdb' ?
[06:28] <killux> is there any fix
[06:28] <mat1980> MaddMaxx: please, read the article I've posted. You will understand, and we will save time.
[06:28] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: they're there, you just have to make sure you're browsing the / of the filesystem
[06:28] <MaddMaxx> which article?
[06:28] <mat1980> MaddMaxx: http://www.freeos.com/articles/3102/
[06:28] <killux> is there any fix for the snd_hda_intel sound problem
[06:29] <killux> that fixes the headphones too
[06:29] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: and yes, read what mat1980 gave you. very good article. read the entire thing before asking another question, please.
