[11:01] <crweb> passbe: kinda sounds like it didn't load then.  It is possible the module loaded without firmware
[11:01] <crweb> passbe: try unloading the module with -r, then load it again and check dmesg
[11:01] <slytherin> passbe: Are you sure the module is loaded? You can try looking at output of 'dmesg' and see if that device node was created.

[11:02] <ikonia> SmSpillaz: depends on your hardware
[11:02] <slytherin> passbe: Try a reboot. :-)
[11:02] <sunogbaga> vlt: do it vice versa
[11:03] <SmSpillaz> ikonia: I put my hand over it and it doesnt feel like 61 C, but that's what is reported
[11:03] <crweb> SmSpillaz: is that the cpu tempature or the case temp?

[11:03] <SmSpillaz> crweb: Its the output I get from both sensors
[11:03] <sunogbaga> vlt: you connect a vncviewer to a vncserver., at least thats how i understand it

[11:04] <cyrax> haha
[11:04] <SmSpillaz> crweb: it only feels like 31 C to me
[11:04] <cyrax> I need help regarding my partitions.
[11:04] <SmSpillaz> the air coming out that is
[11:04] <slytherin> passbe: That is why I said, reboot. May be the module is not loaded at all and it may get loaded automatically on reboot.
[11:04] <ikonia> cyrax: ask the questions
[11:04] <cyrax> My partitions (some ntfs some ext3) have suddenly disappeared.
[11:05] <passbe> slytherin:  should i keep the unit plugged in ?
[11:05] <crweb> SmSpillaz: well, 61C cpu in a core 2 duo/pentium-d laptop isn't bad..
[11:05] <vlt> sunogbaga: Yes, you're right, but vncviewer has a "-listen" option (port 5500). I just can't find the corresponding "connect to listening client" option in vncserver ...
[11:05] <cyrax> I can no longer see the partitions.
[11:05] <ikonia> where ?
[11:05] <crweb> passbe: i'd reboot, disconnect. check dmesg, then plug it in and check dmesg again
[11:05] <vlt> sunogbaga: I can't do it the normla way here, because of NAT/firewalling
[11:05] <slytherin> passbe: of course
[11:05] <vlt> nrmal*
[11:05] <passbe> lol ok brb

[11:06] <cyrax> I saw the uid and it is infact my user id
[11:06] <ikonia> slytherin: thats why I said check it
[11:06] <SmSpillaz> I'm just getting a hell of a lot of overheats recently
[11:06] <sunogbaga> vlt: set ur vncserver to listen to a port,. then using your vncviewer connect to the vncservers host and port where the server is listening
[11:07] <slytherin> cyrax: What did you change recently?
[11:07] <crweb> SmSpillaz: is probably about right underload. Laptop with poor cooling maybe.  might try cleaning out the heatsink and fan area. I know my heatsink fins gather dust and stop air.
[11:07] <cyrax> slytherin, the one thing I had done was update (apt-get upgrade) after around 3 months.
[11:07] <vlt> sunogbaga: Erm, that would be the "nomal" way, yes.

[11:10] <sunogbaga> vlt: sorry, i have to leave.. would have tried that one out with you, however i gotta sleep now.
[11:10] <ikonia> kerny: why do you keep trying to build that module
[11:10] <kerny> because the prebuilt module for linux doesn't support my card
[11:10] <kerny> I think...

[11:12] <kerny> compile linuxtv-dvb-apps
[11:13] <kerny> different thing now
[11:13] <ikonia> kerny: it's very clear your not clear with what your actually doing.
[11:13] <ikonia> kerny: it's also clear your not at a level to be able to follow advice through
[11:13] <cyrax> crweb, errr... you are scaring me now.
[11:14] <kerny> I've stopped trying to add a module
[11:14] <crweb> cyrax: unfortunately i just ignored it and installed. didn't look into it
[11:14] <cyrax> :'( crweb
[11:14] <slytherin> kerny: Do you really expect us to help you when you are not even answering the questions we ask?
[11:14] <ikonia> kerny: I don't mean this derogatory, but I'd advise you to continue to use windows until your card is better supported
[11:14] <ikonia> kerny: you will have a far easier time and better support using windows.

[11:15] <kerny> I'm trying to compile tzap
[11:15] <kbrooks> ikonia, you're biased! you should ask him to stay on linux!
[11:15] <ikonia> kbrooks: biased ?
[11:15] <ikonia> kbrooks: how am I biased ?
[11:15] <kbrooks> ikonia, don't you favour linux over windows?
[11:15] <ikonia> kbrooks: I don't use windows, I am %100 linux
[11:15] <cyrax> I hoped that I can finally suggest moving all of our computers from windows to Ubuntu. Now I would have to re think. Maybe end up with Mac or if worse comes to worst Vista. Just saying that sends shivers down my spine.
[11:16] <Mortice> kerny: why? tzap is in the repositories
[11:16] <dinop007> how can i run vb files? 0.o?

[11:18] <cyrax> crweb, I saw the hal ... thing on the web. Some people had that problem. In my case though, it's funny. All this has happened AFTER the system update. I did not not upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 btw.
[11:18] <kerny> ok
[11:18] <passbe> crweb:  still the same error > lsmod reports that its been loaded into usb_core, so i dont see whats wrong apart from not having a /dev/video0
[11:18] <cyrax> VSpike, *sigh* ... I heard horror stories. Add to that the compulsory DRM *yuck* and it's bloody expensive.
[11:19] <kerny> how do I find my adapter for the -a option of tzap?
[11:19] <Stevethepirate> Anyone here ever ran a dedicated counter strike server off linux?
[11:19] <ikonia> kerny: depends if your adapter creates a device file
[11:19] <kerny> how do I check that?
[11:19] <ikonia> kerny: thats what you need the kernel module for
[11:20] <kerny> how do I enable this module?
[11:20] <VSpike> actually, does anyone know what the keyboard shortcut to get the xkill cursor is?  I thought it was ctrl-alt-esc but that doesn't work here
[11:20] <ikonia> kerny: we are going around in circles
[11:20] <kerny> ok
[11:20] <kerny> start at the beginning
[11:20] <VSpike> I also had a feeling that ctrl-esc usually brought up a process table but that doesn't work either
[11:20] <ikonia> kerny: please consider using an operating system (windows) that has full support for your card.
[11:21] <kerny> so I can't use it?
[11:21] <crweb> passbe: very strange.  Sorry i'm unable to continue with you.  If you do not get it solved come back sometime around now tomorrow :)
[11:21] <kbrooks> kerny, we're not saying you can't
[11:21] <ikonia> kerny: I dind't say that, but you seem unable to follow things through to the required effort to get things working on this level of supported hardware
[11:21] <passbe> crweb:  thx for your help anyways
[11:21] <VSpike> kerny: or ebay the card and buy another which is known to be supported
[11:21] <ikonia> kerny: where as windows I suspect it will work out of the box
[11:21] <passbe> crweb:  atleast ubuntu recognises it straight away
[11:21] <kerny> I can get it working
[11:21] <passbe> a step forward
[11:21] <kerny> I'll try and do it
[11:21] <kerny> just give me instructions
[11:22] <kerny> please
[11:22] <ikonia> kerny: no
[11:22] <ikonia> kerny: it's not a matter of giving instructions
[11:22] <ikonia> kerny: 1.) you don't listen 2.) you don't understand 3.) your not at alevel where you understand what your doing
[11:22] <Cap_J_L_Picard> ikonia: When has windows worked "out of the box", never, always have to faff around with driver discs.
[11:22] <bazhang> true
[11:22] <ikonia> Cap_J_L_Picard: there is a supported drive on windows, that is out of the box
[11:23] <kerny> ok so I have to install the kernel source to install modules
[11:23] <kerny> please tell me the apt-get command to get the kernel source please
[11:23] <kerny> I read above
[11:23] <ikonia> kerny: as far as the ubuntu kernel is concerned there is a partially compatible driver available (from what I've read) or a 3rd party module that is not supported, nor anything to do with ubuntu, so this channel has nothing to do with it
[11:23] <cyrax> ok. Thank you all fr the help.
[11:23] <ikonia> kerny: magnetron has sent you a link 3 times detailing information on the kernel, its source and how to build.

[11:25] <Budda|> I just enabled compiz-fusion, and to make it work like I want I need to enable the driver for my graphics card. However, when I go to do so, it doesn't let me. Anyone know why?
[11:25] <Cap_J_L_Picard> ikonia: In some cases you have to pay for yahos.
[11:25] <ikonia> Budda|: define "won't let me"
[11:25] <maxsoft> hi all. I like unistall SAMBA and reinstall cause dont work well. I would like restart. it's possible with SynapticPackageManager? thank you.
[11:25] <ikonia> Cap_J_L_Picard: thank you
[11:25] <gvsa123> ikonia: so that means it's not possible?
[11:25] <Budda|> ikonia: Sec...
[11:26] <ikonia> maxsoft: uninstalling and re-installing won't fix anything
[11:26] <ikonia> gvsa123: no, evolution will work with pop3 accounts, but you have to pay hotmail/yahoo to enable pop3 access for your account
[11:26] <gruntLOL> Hey all I was wondering if anyone who used tf-b4rt along with azureus could help me.

[11:28] <maxsoft> VSpike: thank you very much.
[11:28] <maxsoft> I try
[11:28] <ikonia> dooglus: I'm not sure if you have to use a windows tool for vfat framention, one moment
[11:28] <kbrooks> dooglus, do it from Windows
[11:28] <Budda|> ikonia: Still doesn't work
[11:29] <dooglus> kbrooks: I don't know how.  Windows is all in a foreign language.
[11:29] <ikonia> dooglus: you should be able to fsck it
[11:29] <dooglus> ikonia: it's not fsck'ed, just fragmented
[11:29] <ikonia> Budda|: please show me the output of "apt-cache search nvidia"
[11:29] <ikonia> dooglus: thats as far as the linux tools will allow you to go
[11:29] <dooglus> ikonia: fsck won't defrag a volume, just sanity check it
[11:29] <ikonia> dooglus: I know this
[11:30] <earlmred> hmm
[11:30] <earlmred> this is nice.
[11:30] <earlmred> "desktop effects could not be enabled"

[11:30] <earlmred> sigh.
[11:30] <dooglus> ikonia: so I need to buy a copy of windows?  that's kind of weak
[11:30] <ikonia> maxsoft: samba is in ubuntu's software repo's
[11:30] <kerny> If I install windows over linux, how do I get grub back so I can dual boot?
[11:30] <ikonia> dooglus: your using a windows file system, not really weak

[11:31] <dooglus> ikonia: it's not a windows filesystem - it predates windows
[11:31] <ikonia> Guest16155: that package doesn't exist
[11:31] <Budda|> ikonia: Still doesn't work
[11:31] <ikonia> dooglus: ok, a prodominatly microsoft based file system. Does that make it a little better
[11:31] <Stevethepirate> Guest16155: sudo aptitude search vnc
[11:31] <ikonia> Budda|: I didn't say it would work, I asked you for the output of apt-cache search nvidia-new
[11:31] <dooglus> ikonia: it's an ISO standard filesystem isn't it?
[11:32] <ikonia> dooglus: no idea
[11:32] <earlmred> hmm
[11:32] <earlmred> i guess compiz hates xinerama
[11:32] <ikonia> dooglus: the bottom line is linux doesn't have tools to defrag it
[11:32] <dooglus> ikonia: I was told that it's well supported by both windows and ubuntu - that's why I used it.  now I find it is getting incredibly slow due to fragmentation
[11:32] <Stevethepirate> the bottom line is that ext3 is not BS like ntfs so doesn't need degrag
[11:32] <Stevethepirate> *defrag
[11:32] <ikonia> dooglus: its supported for read / write access in linux
[11:32] <ikonia> dooglus: thats as far as it goes really
[11:33] <ikonia> dooglus: its a very limited file system
[11:33] <dooglus> ikonia: that is all I use it for, read and write in linux, yet it is becoming slower and slower
[11:33] <earlmred> what file system is best for mdadm raid5?
[11:33] <ikonia> dooglus: because its fragmented
[11:33] <Budda|> ikonia: no output?
[11:33] <ikonia> earlmred: doesn't matter
[11:33] <ikonia> Budda|: you got zero lines of output

[11:34] <earlmred> ubuntu_ how many hard drives are in your machine?
[11:34] <ubuntu_> 2
[11:34] <ikonia> Guest16155: look in the configuration file
[11:34] <earlmred> ubuntu_ using both for 7.10, or just one?
[11:35] <ubuntu_> no OS on the other
[11:35] <dooglus> my memory sticks, camera, ipod also use vfat format.
[11:35] <Guest16155> ikonia: what is the loacation of the configuaration file ?
[11:35] <ubuntu_> its just for storage
[11:35] <ikonia> Guest16155: no idea
[11:35] <ikonia> Guest16155: /etc/$somewhere
[11:35] <earlmred> ubuntu_ i had the same problem earlier tonight, i had to unplug my 4 other sata drives and pull out my ide raid card before grub would boot properly =\
[11:35] <earlmred> ubuntu_ and reinstall grub.
[11:35] <eyemean> hello all, i've notived that wen im watching tv with tvtime cu usage is very high, but when i minimize it cpu usage drops, is that normal
[11:35] <ikonia> ubuntu_: grub has probably installed to the wrong drive
[11:35] <Richard51684> how do you set up apps to be ran at startup?
[11:35] <ubuntu_> earlmred: my main drive is sata and the slave is IDE, if that helps any
[11:36] <ikonia> eyemean: yes, no on-screeen rendering is needed
[11:36] <eyemean> i have radeon 9550 , 1.7GHz cpu, 1Gig ram
[11:36] <ubuntu_> well how can i get it to install to the correct one
[11:36] <earlmred> ubuntu_ grub probably installed on your IDE drive or something
[11:36] <ikonia> ubuntu_: you have 2 drives yes ?
[11:36] <Guest16155> !tightvnc
[11:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tightvnc - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:36] <eyemean> ok thanx ikonia
[11:36] <ubuntu_> when i  go to edit it in grub it says the drive is (hd1,1) but my sata is sdb2 i believe
[11:36] <rysiek|pl> hi guys
[11:36] <earlmred> ubuntu_ boot off the rescue cd and choose boot off first hard drive
[11:36] <Stevethepirate> Guest16155: tightvnc
[11:36] <Budda|> ???
[11:36] <Stevethepirate> is like.
[11:36] <ikonia> ubuntu_: grud addresses drives differently
[11:36] <ubuntu_> earlmred: i get the same thing, ive tried that
[11:36] <ikonia> Budda|: you are using ubuntu 7.10 yes ?
[11:37] <Stevethepirate> a program name
[11:37] <earlmred> ubuntu_ hmm, that worked for me.
[11:37] <Stevethepirate> its like saying winscp
[11:37] <Stevethepirate> it uses a common protocol
[11:37] <eyemean> ikonia, is that the same for every tv software?
[11:37] <earlmred> ubuntu_ disable your ide drive in the bios and see if you get grub, if not, you know it installed grub on the ide drive
[11:37] <ikonia> eyemean: for anything visual, it if has to actually "show" something thats harder work than "not showing" something
[11:37] <Stevethepirate> you just need a client
[11:37] <ubuntu_> earlmred: ill restart and try that
[11:38] <Richard51684> how do you set up apps to be ran at startup?
[11:38] <earlmred> Stevethepirate avast!
[11:38] <earlmred> Richard51684 in X or services or ?
[11:38] <earlmred> sweet michael vick is getting sentenced today.
[11:38] <Richard51684> i don't know, im not very good with linux
[11:38] <Guest16155> does someone know where is the configuration file of tightvnc server ?
[11:38] <eyemean> ikonia, ok thanx for letting me know, cheers
[11:38] <Richard51684> i just want specific apps like firefox for eg. to load at startup
[11:39] <earlmred> Richard51684 http://www.howtoforge.com/make-desktop-applications-start-automatically-gnome
[11:39] <Richard51684> thanks
[11:40] <gaurish> whats the name of compiz-fusion settings manager?
[11:40] <gaurish> In which package does SSHD comes?
[11:41] <ikonia> gaurish: openssh-server
[11:41] <gaurish> whats the name of compiz-fusion settings manager?
[11:41] <magnetron> gaurish: the ssh package
[11:41] <gaurish> yes
[11:42] <magnetron> gaurish: it's named --h
[11:42] <magnetron> ss
[11:42] <ikonia> magnetron: its openssh-server for sshd
[11:42] <Budda1> ikonia: Did you suggest anything while I was lagging out?
[11:42] <magnetron> ikonia: ssh works as well
[11:43] <maxsoft> hi all. can you suggest me a GUI GTK for SAMBA?
[11:43] <ikonia> mamagnetron so it does, thats an excellent addition
[11:44] <ikonia> maxsoft: swat is the only real config tool
[11:44] <Budda1> ikonia: Any ideas on how I can get my graphics card working on ubuntu?
[11:44] <eyemean> ikonia, should a website have the same effect? high cpu usage
[11:44] <wols_> for very low values of "config!
[11:44] <ikonia> eyemean: depends on the content, flash for example, yes
[11:45] <ikonia> Budda1: yes, show me the results of apt-cache search nvidia-new
[11:45] <maxsoft> thank you all
[11:45] <eyemean> if i post the site can u see if you have the same effect? or is that against the rules here?
[11:46] <ikonia> eyemean: why, my system is different, so it's a pointless test
[11:46] <para_dox> hey all
[11:46] <eyemean> ikonia, oh ok, lol
[11:46] <Budda1> I am about to kill something
[11:46] <wersdaluv> hmmm... is there a basket notepads alternative for gnome?
[11:47] <magnetron> wersdaluv: "basket notepad"? please elaborate, i don't understand
[11:47] <para_dox> I'm getting an error when I './configure' a source.. says gtk2.0 isn't met.. and I'm pretty sure I installed it.. could this be a problem in a path?  how would I check where gtk2.0 is?
[11:47] <wersdaluv> basket notepads, the KDE app
[11:47] <ikonia> para_dox: gtk maybe installed, it may be looking for headers or libaries
[11:47] <wersdaluv> the amazing kde app
[11:48] <para_dox> ikonia- is there a quick way to reinstall it all? with headers/all libraries?
[11:48] <ikonia> para_dox: what are you building ?
[11:48] <magnetron> para_dox: to compile, you need the gtk2<something>-dev
[11:48] <para_dox> gmudix-1.0
[11:48] <ikonia> ooh the mud client
[11:49] <para_dox> heh.. yeah I'm one of those :P
[11:49] <ikonia> para_dox: have you tried gnome-mud ? and gmoo ?
[11:49] <para_dox> I prefer gmudix scripting personally
[11:49] <para_dox> I had it working a few months ago.. I think I had this exact same problem.. forget how I fixed it
[11:49] <para_dox> course, I was on FC5 then I think
[11:49] <ikonia> para_dox: sure, just offering you a supported altnernative. download the gtk-dev and lib packages
[11:49] <para_dox> ok, I'll try that first.. thanks for the help
[11:52] <Budda> I am about to kill something
[11:52] <para_dox> sweet, you rock ikonia :P
[11:52] <ikonia> Budda: I've attempted to assist you to debug, but you keep ignoreing it
[11:52] <ikonia> para_dox: your welcome
[11:52] <para_dox> I didn't figure I needed the -dev one
[11:52] <Budda|> ikonia: I'm not ignoring it
[11:52] <Budda|> I never see the messages
[11:53] <Budda|> I'm back on Windows now
[11:53] <ikonia> Budda|: so what is the output from the commands I've asked you to run 3 times
[11:53] <para_dox> is that a general way to fix dependency issues if I know I have the package installed? always install the -dev ?
[11:53] <ikonia> Budda|: then I'm unable to help you if you are on windows
[11:53] <ikonia> para_dox: the -dev packages normall contain development requirements such as headers
[11:53] <Budda|> ikonia: The command I _did_ see, I ran, and there was no output
[11:53] <ikonia> Budda|: ok, then we need to check your software sources
[11:54] <armyboy> hayyy!!!!!!
[11:54] <Budda|> How would I do that?
[11:54] <ubuntu_> earlmred: i think it did like you said and just installed to the IDE and not the SATA drive
[11:54] <ubuntu_> how can i install grub to the SATA?
[11:54] <armyboy> boleh kenalan g???
[11:54] <ikonia> Budda|: give me a shout when you back on linux
[11:54] <Budda|> Also, is there a way to install a better driver for my wireless card, it keeps randomly disconnecting me from my network while on ubuntu
[11:54] <ikonia> Budda|: thats all in the same thing potentially
[11:55] <Budda|> Ugh
[11:55] <Slart> armyboy: english might work better
[11:55] <Budda|> Alright, I'll try linux again, but if the network card fucks up one more time, I think I might smash my screen
[11:55] <Budda|> brb
[11:55] <ikonia> Budda|: wait
[11:55] <earlmred> ubuntu_, http://www.sorgonet.com/linux/grubrestore/

[12:13] <ikonia> Budda|: apologies I was on the phone
[12:13] <wols_> Guest16155: apt-get install libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2
[12:13] <ikonia> Budda|: are you confident with what you are doing now
[12:13] <ikonia> wols_: why would it need gcc lib?
[12:13] <wols_> oliver_: sudo ps aux |grep panel
[12:13] <wols_> ikonia: cause it's a C++ program
[12:14] <ikonia> wols_: I thought it was a gcc lib, not a glibc one
[12:14] <ikonia> but it is glibc
[12:14] <sake> #Ubuntu-pl
[12:14] <wols_> ikonia: and has a brokenly set up dependency. you can file a bug, but it's universe
[12:14] <wols_> ikonia: it's the C++ standard lib for glibc 2.2
[12:14] <ikonia> wols_: yes, as I said I thought it was a gcc lib, hence why I questioned it
[12:15] <wols_> if you compile an app with STL components a lincstd++ is referenced. always been thus

[12:16] <ruoso> Hi... I'm the maintainer of gnome-mag in debian. The gnome-mag package in ubuntu does not support the colorblind accessibility filters... the latest version (just uploaded) supports it just fine with the colorblind applet... how does it work to get that features to ubuntu?
[12:16]  * earlmred comments out lines
[12:16] <Slart> did you expect anything else from creative?
[12:16] <ari_stress> hi guys, any URL on how to do incremental backup in Linux?
[12:17] <kbrooks> earlmred, what does uname -i print
[12:17] <wols_> ruoso: shouldn't you ask this the maintainer of the package?
[12:17] <wols_> ruoso: few if any ubuntu devs here
[12:17] <earlmred> kbrooks,  unknown
[12:17] <_ruben> ruoso: might wanna check out #ubuntu-motu
[12:17] <Trae> I can't get syntax highlighting working with Ubuntu's vim
[12:18] <kbrooks> earlmred, are you saying it prints "unknown", or are you saying you don't know?
[12:18] <Trae> This is the version I have:  version 7.1.56
[12:18] <n15t0> redarrow: german?
[12:18] <earlmred> kbrooks
[12:18] <earlmred> unknown
[12:18] <Slart> ari_stress: there are several backup applications available.. I think most of them support incremental backups.. do a apt-cache search backup and see what you find
[12:18] <earlmred> is the output of uname -i
[12:18] <IdleOne> kbrooks: it prints unknown
[12:18] <borndeer> @Trae: I have the same problem
[12:18] <n15t0> hello slart!
[12:18] <kbrooks> earlmred, ah
[12:18] <kbrooks> earlmred, ok
[12:18] <Slart> n15t0: hello again
[12:19] <Trae> borndeer, I can't live without color syntax highlighting :(
[12:19] <_ruben> Trae: vim-tiny (the default) or the 'real' vim ?
[12:19] <ari_stress> Slart: thanks man :)
[12:19] <_ruben> Trae: the default (vim-tiny) is very limited
[12:19] <Trae> _ruben, I'm typing "vim"
[12:19] <borndeer> Trae: so I just switch to Gedit
[12:19] <Slart> ari_stress: you're welcome
[12:19] <ikonia> Budda|: are you confident with what you are doing now
[12:19] <Trae> borndeer, omg.... icky  lol
[12:19] <Trae> borndeer, but if it works for you great mate, I can't use it personally
[12:20] <shishio> guys, how can i safely remove my usb flashdrive?
[12:20] <Trae> _ruben, yeah I'm typing "vim" from terminal
[12:20] <_ruben> Trae: check with 'dpkg -l | grep vim'
[12:20] <earlmred> hmm
[12:20] <_ruben> Trae: or just try and go with 'sudo apt-get install vim'
[12:20] <earlmred> maybe i'll be returning this sound card and going back to my onboard sound
[12:20] <Slart> shishio: unmount it.. "sudo umount /path/to/mountpoint" or right-click it in nautilus, select unmount
[12:21] <Trae> _ruben, that's insane lol ok installling it
[12:21] <shishio> thanks
[12:21] <_ruben> Trae: what is?
[12:21] <Trae> _ruben, that worked!
[12:22] <Trae> _ruben, it's insane that the real version of vim isn't shipped by default
[12:22] <Trae> odd
[12:22] <whonicca> whats the best gnome based program to make a data cd that supports multi sessions
[12:22] <Trae> _ruben, at any rate, thanks bunches mate!
[12:22] <kbrooks> whonicca, gnomebaker
[12:22] <whonicca> will try that
[12:22] <Slart> whonicca: doesn't gnomebaker support multisessions? or try brasero
[12:22] <whonicca> thanks
[12:23] <fevel> hello
[12:23] <whonicca> Slart, never used it
[12:23] <_ruben> Trae: well, it's real, just a stripped down version, the idea behind it is unknown to me tho ;-) could be a space issue or smth
[12:24] <apo_> Hi
[12:24] <fevel> I have installed windows on another partition and it screwed grub, booting directly insto windows xp. I have no linux cd since my cd case got robbed, is there a way to fix the bootloader from within windows?
[12:24] <fevel> *ubuntu 7.10
[12:24] <ikonia> fevel: no
[12:24] <Trae> _ruben, yeah.... I think it's specifically to confuse people like me ;)
[12:24] <_ruben> Trae: heheh, i doubt that ;-)
[12:24] <kbrooks> Trae, heh
[12:24] <Slart> whonicca: Brasero handles multi-session discs.. I just checked.. I don't know about gnomebaker but it's pretty popular
[12:24] <apo_> I've just switched to 8.04, and now when I unhide tilda (a terminal like the ones used in quake or unreal tournament, hidden until you press a key), it does not get focus
[12:25] <apo_> The focus remains on the previously selected window
[12:25] <ikonia> apo_: 8.10 is not supported
[12:25] <apo_> Is there some way to turn the focus-stealing prevention off?
[12:25] <apo_> Oops
[12:25] <ikonia> apo_: 8.10 discussion (not support) is in #ubuntu+1
[12:25] <apo_> #ubuntu+1?
[12:25] <apo_> Good, thx
[12:25] <apo_> Bye ;)
[12:25] <kbrooks> ikonia, do you mean to talk about 8.04?
[12:25] <ikonia> kbrooks: yes
[12:26] <Richard51684> how do you make your user name stay in the login box at the login window
[12:27] <kahrytan> !hardy | Apo_
[12:27] <ubotu> Apo_: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[12:27] <kahrytan> ikonia➲  use !hardy for 8.04
[12:27] <ikonia> kahrytan: np
[12:28] <ikonia> kahrytan: no
[12:28] <Guest16155> how can i remove total some package from my ubuntu on terminal ?
[12:28] <kbrooks> kahrytan, he left, too late
[12:28] <ikonia> kahrytan: I chose to explain to him and interact, feel free to use factoids when you want
[12:28] <jimqode> Does anyone know I can enter into .xinitrc file to switch keyboard layouts with alt+shift keys? Using gnome layout switcher is not an option.
[12:28] <ikonia> Guest16155: total ?
[12:28] <ikonia> jimqode: I do'nt think xinit has that style of functionality
[12:28] <wols_> Guest16155: apt-get remove --purgr <package>
[12:28] <Guest16155> ikonia: i mean how can i remove in a safty way a package from the terminal ?
[12:28] <kbrooks> Guest16155, um, sudo apt-get remove --purge <package>
[12:29] <ikonia> Guest16155: wols_ provided you the answer
[12:29] <jimqode> ikonia, it is a startup script file.There should be a way to bind functions to keys
[12:30] <wols_> jimqode: setxkbmap
[12:30] <jimqode> wols_, do you know how i can bind setxkbmap command to a key?
[12:30] <ikonia> jimqode: I'm not sure how you'd bind it to a key, but the change should be possible
[12:30] <wols_> jimqode: layouts or single keys?
[12:30] <ikonia> wols_: he means on keypress change layouts
[12:31] <wols_> changing layouts is done with setxkbmap, how to trigger and run that is for you to find out
[12:31] <Richard51684> how do you make your user name stay in the login box at the login window
[12:31] <wols_> but .xinit would be the wrong place for this
[12:31] <ikonia> wols_: I can't see how he'd ba ble to keybind it using xinit

[12:38] <Richard51684> what is the easiest way to access information from the temp sensors in your comp
[12:39] <Wolfslurg> if i put the video in a full screen mode.. i can see the movie...
[12:39] <wols_> Wolfslurg: it's supported by the ubuntu fglrx driver. drivers from ati.com are not supported
[12:39] <wols_> Richard51684: mbmon
[12:40] <Richard51684> hmm thanks
[12:40] <Wolfslurg> ok :)

[12:44] <Upayavira> how do I rename a newly built kernel? The one I've just built seems to have exactly the same name as the one I am currently running.
[12:44] <Wolfslurg> bye
[12:44] <ikonia> Upayavira: just rename the file
[12:44] <Wolfslurg> and thanks ^_^
[12:45] <Upayavira> ikonia: that easy? Okay.
[12:45] <ikonia> Upayavira: it may not hurt to use the "append" parameter in the .config to change the running kernel name to differentiate between the ubuntu one
[12:46] <gocciadisangue> may you help me? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47683/
[12:46] <Upayavira> ikonia: so if I just do append=uv1, I'll get uv1 in the filename?
[12:46] <ikonia> Upayavira: no, the append parameter is in the .config at compile time
[12:47] <Upayavira> ikonia: Okay, so I add it to the .config I generate?
[12:47] <ajay_> how to configure ati radeon xpress 200 graphic card(motherboard intergreted)
[12:47] <ikonia> Upayavira: you don't add it, in the menuconfig or xconfig (whatever you used) there is an append option to append your own name to the kernel title
[12:48] <Upayavira> ikonia: okay. (I just edited debian/config/i386/config and ran debian/misc/oldconfig 386)
[12:48] <ikonia> Upayavira: what did you edit ?

[12:50] <Upayavira> ikonia: linux-source-2.6.22-2.6.22/debian/config/i386/config
[12:50] <ikonia> Upayavira: but what did you do to the file
[12:50] <Upayavira> replaced SLUB with SLAB
[12:51] <Upayavira> And linux-source-2.6.22-2.6.22/build/.config shows my change
[12:51] <ikonia> Upayavira: but you didn't use the append option ?
[12:51] <Upayavira> At that point, I didn't know there was an append option!
[12:51] <ikonia>  ok

[12:56] <ikonia> StrictProduction: nvidia is a closed source driver, and there is no new ubuntu released kernel
[12:57] <ikonia> StrictProduction: would you care to expand your question ?
[12:57] <StrictProduction> nah ... :)
[12:58] <brobostigon> hi
[12:59] <babo> Can I move a folder to another directory with ftp ?
[12:59] <babo> there's no mv command ...
[12:59] <ikonia> babo: no, you can copy not move
[12:59] <dooglus> babo: it depends on the FTP server.  see if it has a RENA command
[13:00] <babo> dooglus, yeah it has rena
[13:00] <StrictProduction> any audio user in here ?! dssi-vst it is not included in ubuntu but it is existing :))
[13:01] <me4u> would somebody know how to load the theme setup "young" for edubuntu
[13:01] <me4u> http://www.edubuntu.org/Screenshots
[13:01] <me4u> can't find it preinstalled or downloadable
[13:01] <ikonia> me4u: download the theme, or mail the author of that screen shot
[13:02] <babo> dooglus: rena == rename ?
[13:02] <me4u> ik know where to d/l it from?
[13:02] <ikonia> ik ?
[13:02] <me4u> ikonia
[13:02] <StrictProduction> google for the theme ...
[13:02] <ikonia> me4u: yes ?
[13:03] <me4u> would you know where to d/l it from?
[13:03] <ikonia> me4u: no
[13:03] <me4u> couldn't find it
[13:03] <ikonia> me4u: mail the author of the screen shot
[13:03] <babo> ikonia: there's no copy command in my ftp man sheet ...
[13:03] <me4u> trying to get this system ready for a little girl
[13:03] <ikonia> me4u: it may not be available for download, it maybe his personal theme
[13:03] <dooglus> babo: I just renamed a dir like this:
[13:03] <dooglus> babo: ftp> rename<EMAIL_ADDRESS><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[13:03] <ikonia> babo: no, you re-put it in a new location
[13:04] <babo> ah, OK thanks
[13:04] <dooglus> babo: I don't think ikonia knows about the rename command
[13:04] <me4u> hmm it says on this site that it's part of 3 themes available
[13:04] <ikonia> dooglus: I certainly don't
[13:04] <me4u> http://www.edubuntu.org/Screenshots
[13:04] <draken> wtf
[13:04] <StrictProduction> me4u a sec
[13:04] <draken> xchat is like fullscreen
[13:04] <draken> and i cant change it
[13:04] <dooglus> ikonia: it worked for me on a yahoo webhosting ftp server.  I don't know how standard it is
[13:05] <StrictProduction> what theme?!
[13:05] <me4u> "young"
[13:05] <aniac> hi!
[13:05] <dooglus> hi aniac
[13:05] <me4u> the one in the middle there in that link
[13:05] <aniac> I need a little bit help about scripting...
[13:05] <me4u> with the cartoon kids
[13:06] <aniac> I need to write a script in order to find all empty subdirectories of a directory and delete those...
[13:06] <ikonia> aniac: join #bash
[13:06] <aniac> i think it's easy but don't know anything about scripting yet...
[13:07] <Slap_stick> aniac: man find
[13:07] <ikonia> aniac: and read the bash basics on http://www.tldp.org
[13:07] <dooglus> aniac: you could rely on the fact that 'rmdir' won't delete dirs which aren't empty:  find . -type d -exec rmdir {} ';'
[13:07] <dooglus> aniac: if you don't need recursion, a simple "rmdir *" will do
[13:08] <dooglus> aniac: I wouldn't suggest using bash scripting though - find is sufficient
[13:09] <aniac> dooglus I need recursion because some subdirs may have other subdirs..
[13:09] <StrictProduction> me4u sudo apt-get install edubuntu-artwork and you will have the theme > iknoia don`t know about google
[13:09] <aniac> thnks for your help!
[13:09] <dooglus> aniac: right.  you might want to use -depth too, so it does the deepest dirs first
[13:10] <dooglus> aniac: see 'man find' for details
[13:10] <aniac> ok, thanks ;)
[13:10] <babo> dooglus, thanks dude. rena makes my life alot easier ... :-)
[13:11] <jimqode> how do I change a user's defualt session type?
[13:11] <StrictProduction> anyone Nvidia 169.04 kernel 2.6.24 tested ?!
[13:11] <dooglus> aniac: the question is: if directory 'a' contains only directory 'b', and directory 'b' is empty, do you want both 'a' and 'b' deleted?  or only 'b'?  'a' isn't empty, but it will be once you delete 'b'
[13:11] <ikonia> StrictProduction: that is nothing to do with ubuntu, please take this to a more appropriate place
[13:11] <me4u> thanx StrictProduction
[13:11] <Quazion> I did a apt-get upgrade and it broke htop, getting Stack smashing detected warnings, any idea's how to fix this ?
[13:12] <dooglus> babo: I use GNU Emacs and wdired mode with TRAMP.  It makes renaming stuff on an FTP server as easy as editing a text file listing the filenames
[13:12] <StrictProduction> ikonia antisocialism in here ? rasism ? inhuman language ?
[13:12] <aniac> dooglus in fact I want only directories whitch contain files not to be deleted...
[13:12] <ikonia> StrictProduction: pardon ?
[13:12] <aniac> empty dirs and dirs which contain only empty dirs should be deleted
[13:12] <StrictProduction> ikonia it is restricted to me to talk to other users ?
[13:12] <dooglus> aniac: and dirs which contain only dirs which contain only dirs?
[13:13] <ikonia> StrictProduction: on non-ubuntu topics, yes
[13:13] <ikonia> StrictProduction: this is an ubuntu support channel only
[13:13] <jimqode> StrictProduction this is a help channel
[13:13] <ikonia> StrictProduction: not a chat channel
[13:13] <babo> dooglus, I'm using tramp on emacs as well.
[13:13] <StrictProduction> ok so i can talk about Lmms crashing on my ubuntu machine ?
[13:13] <StrictProduction> :)
[13:13] <babo> how does it make it that easy ?
[13:13] <ikonia> lmms ?
[13:13] <jimqode> !offtopic | StrictProduction

[13:13] <ikonia> oof the stupid
[13:13] <ikonia> stuiod
[13:13] <ikonia> studio
[13:13] <ikonia> sorry
[13:13] <aniac> if the final dir in depth is empty it should be deleted. then if the dir which contained that is empty (after deletion of the contained empty dir), it should be deleted too..
[13:14] <dooglus> babo: did you see wdired mode?
[13:14] <Stevethepirate> Does ubuntu support Turbocache?
[13:14] <StrictProduction> ok i see i go to ubuntu+1
[13:14] <Stevethepirate> Like. well?
[13:14] <StrictProduction> ;)
[13:14] <dooglus> aniac: you need find -depth then - so it deletes the deepest dir before looking at the parent
[13:14] <ikonia> StrictProduction: not ubuntu+1
[13:14] <dooglus> babo: (define-key dired-mode-map "r" (quote wdired-change-to-wdired-mode))

[13:14] <aniac> hmmm ok, I'll look also at the man, thanks ! ;)

[13:16] <jimqode> how do I change a user's default session type in gdm?
[13:16] <neilroba1> gday folks. just ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to try to get higher resolution than 600x800. just wondering if cntl-alt-bsp will restart X? seems I tried that and ubuntu (running from cd) *rebooted*.
[13:16] <dooglus> jimqode: change it once, and it will ask if you want to keep the change as the default
[13:16] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: accidents happen
[13:16] <babo> dooglus, M-x (define-key dired-mode-map "r" (quote wdired-change-to-wdired-mode)) ... ?
[13:17] <jimqode> dooglus well I also remember it asks but it doesnt. maybe its behav changed in an update
[13:17] <me4u> Strict it's telloing me that edubuntu-artwork is already the newest version
[13:17] <babo> how can i remove a directory that still has files in it ?
[13:17] <jimqode> babo "rm -rf". but please be careful while using it. because it does not ask for confirmation
[13:18] <StrictProduction> me4u ask ikonia how to use that theme , it is a standard theme from the edubuntu distribution
[13:18] <dooglus> babo: that makes the 'r' key in dired mode go into wdired-mode, where you can edit the filenames easily
[13:18] <ikonia> StrictProduction: I've no idea if it's even installed in that package
[13:18] <StrictProduction> supporting unbuntu but don`t know anything about the distribution
[13:18] <dooglus> jimqode: see also the ~/.dmrc file
[13:18] <StrictProduction> ikonia then shut up with commenting without searching info
[13:18] <ikonia> StrictProduction no, not knowing anything about a specific package of a product I don't use
[13:19] <ikonia> StrictProduction: I didn't comment on his problem
[13:19] <babo> jimqode, sorry dude, I meant to say how can i remove a directory with ftp that has files in it ?
[13:19] <ikonia> StrictProduction: and be respectful towards people, that attitude is uncalled for
[13:19] <jimqode> StrictProduction please cool down
[13:19] <vatai> yellow.. help?!
[13:19] <babo> dooglus, k thanks - I don't think i have it installed then cause i just get no-match ...
[13:19] <vatai> ati mobility radeon hd 2400
[13:19] <vatai> help needed...
[13:20] <dooglus> babo: if you use a recent version of Emacs, TRAMP will offer to recursively delete the directory for you
[13:20] <vatai> sorry i'm new to irc, especially asking for help on irc... so i'm not sure how/where to ask...
[13:20] <dooglus> vatai: just ask :)
[13:20] <vatai> :)
[13:21] <vatai> thanx :) so... i have a new laptop... with an ati mobility radeon hd 2400 graphics card...
[13:21] <dooglus> vatai: I have an ati mobility radeon x1600 and haven't had any luck getting it to work.  I'm not sure where to ask for help either.
[13:21] <babo> dooglus, my emacs must be fairly up to date though - I'm on gutsy and i just installed the updates. There was defeinitely an emacs update in there ...

[13:22] <me4u> ikonia where do I find that info at?
[13:23] <vatai> douglus: x1600 the "restricted" driver doesn't suport it?

[13:23] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[13:23] <wroklife> suno6ba6a: i have a mobo with 2 gigalans so i have tried setting up the lan on eth0 eth1 using ifconfig or just network manager etc even tried lowering the subnet mask
[13:23] <ikonia> StrictProduction: hardy disscussion is in #ubuntu+1
[13:23] <dooglus> jimqode: you might want a gnome one - I'm using xfce
[13:24] <dooglus> jimqode: a GNOME user here has just these 2 lines:
[13:24] <dooglus> [Desktop]
[13:24] <dooglus> Session=gnome
[13:24] <suno6ba6a> can u ping l0?

[13:24] <Netfeed> how can i switch from utf8 too iso-8859-1 on gutsy?
[13:24] <jimqode> dooglus yep, got the idea. i'm using ratpoison ;)
[13:24] <babo> is there no delete * wildcard no ?
[13:24] <dooglus> vatai: you don't - nobody cares whether you're away or not...
[13:25] <vatai> :) thanx
[13:25] <suno6ba6a> wroklife can u ping the loopback iface?
[13:25] <dooglus> vatai: did you install the fglrx drivers?
[13:25] <dooglus> !ati
[13:25] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[13:25] <wroklife> suno6ba6a: yes  have it works.....
[13:26] <suno6ba6a> but none of the other interface works?
[13:26] <vatai> dooglus: nope... giving it a try now
[13:26] <wroklife> no it doesnt
[13:26] <suno6ba6a> wroklife can you ping your router?
[13:26] <wroklife> even cant get to the gateway
[13:26] <dooglus> vatai: it kind of helped for me, but I see corrupted displays quite regularly
[13:26] <udinesh5> hey ppl i want a help
[13:26] <Ghotcom> hello
[13:26] <wroklife> cant even get to the pc on the same switch
[13:27] <dooglus> udinesh5: hey we want a question
[13:27] <me4u> would somebody know how to load the "young" theme in edubuntu
[13:27] <udinesh5> can u get me command options for gnomebaker
[13:27] <ikonia> udinesh5: ask a question
[13:27] <ikonia> me4u: ask in #edubuntu
[13:27] <me4u> http://www.edubuntu.org/Screenshots
[13:27] <vatai> dooglas: x600 worked fine with mi...
[13:27] <ikonia> me4u: I've told you a few times now
[13:27] <ikonia> me4u: you'll get better support
[13:27] <me4u> ikonia nobody there really
[13:27] <ikonia> me4u: its a channel specific to that release
[13:27] <vatai> dooglus: on the other machine, ofcourse
[13:27] <Ghotcom> does anyone know if Freetype supports x86_64 ?
[13:28] <dooglus> udinesh5: how about help>contents inside the program?
[13:28] <suno6ba6a> wroklife are you on dhcp?
[13:28] <me4u> I know ya did ikonia. I just figured I'd give this channel you posted a shot
[13:28] <me4u> thx
[13:28] <udinesh5> dooglus: it doesnt show them
[13:29] <wroklife> no i cant be on dhcp bcos my cablenet uses static ips
[13:29] <dooglus> udinesh5: ok then, gnomebaker --help
[13:29] <udinesh5> dooglus: lemme try
[13:29] <ikonia> wroklife: your cable may, but your router may require dhcp
[13:29] <dooglus> udinesh5: I don't know why the GNOME programs generally don't have manual pages like everything else
[13:30] <wroklife> ikonia: i tried with dhcp but my lan is connected thru switches so it definately requires a static ip
[13:31] <ikonia> wroklife:you have no router ?
[13:31] <udinesh5> dooglus: yep only help options n appl options
[13:31] <udinesh5> dooglas:no other stuff
[13:31] <dooglus> udinesh5: there's nothing under 'help options' about how to display all the options?
[13:32] <wroklife> dont know man i am newbie to this.....but i cant get to router either
[13:32] <udinesh5> dooglas: yes
[13:32] <ikonia> wroklife: your router has a static ip, but your workstataions may need dhcp asssigned addresses from your router
[13:32] <udinesh5> dooglas: no options there
[13:32] <ikonia> wroklife: if you can't get to your router though your network setup is wrong
[13:32] <dooglus> udinesh5: what are you looking for?
[13:33] <udinesh5> dooglas: i was looking for commandline options so tat i could specify all cd writing job jus keying in
[13:33] <udinesh5> dooglas: nothing specific other than trying to use commandline interface
[13:33] <dooglus> udinesh5: I don't think GNOME applications are supposed to be very useful - they're for newbies moving from Windows who like things to click on.  there are command line cd burning programs if that's what you're looking for
[13:33] <wroklife> ikonia: ok but i have been given a gateway and have a php webpage to authenticate my cablenet account.. and else nothing just subnet mask and a static ip... cos if i change my ip i get problems with connecting during authentication itself
[13:34] <ikonia> wroklife: that should be setup on the router, not your workstation
[13:34] <dooglus> udinesh5: look at 'cdrecord' for instance
[13:34] <suno6ba6a> ikonia am i allowed to help people? it seems I still have a lot to learn..
[13:34] <udinesh5> dooglas: yep i am a newbie jus trying to move on to linux ! i am using ubuntu dapper
[13:34] <wroklife> no no its my workstation setup
[13:34] <ikonia> suno6ba6a: if you know the answers, of course help
[13:35] <udinesh5> dooglas: sure !
[13:35] <ikonia> wroklife: contact your isp then, as thats an unusual setup
[13:35] <dooglus> udinesh5: type "man cdrecord" in a terminal and it will give you more options than you want :)
[13:35] <wroklife> ikonia: ok thnx
[13:35] <udinesh5> dooglus: thanx dude !:-)
[13:36] <udinesh5> dooglus:logging off bye :-)
[13:36] <dooglus> udinesh5: bye

[13:40] <mbl> hi
[13:41] <mbl> can anyone help with setting up sata hotswap?
[13:41] <huss>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY <password>
[13:41] <LjL> huss: try without leading spaces, and with an actual password
[13:41] <ikonia> mbl: does your hardware support hot swap ?
[13:41] <mbl> yes, it should
[13:41] <ikonia> mbl: does it though, not "it should"
[13:42] <mbl> promise tx2300 sata-ctrl and sata2 drives in a bay
[13:42] <ikonia> mbl: I've not seen a promise controller that supports hot swap
[13:42] <mbl> ?
[13:42] <mbl> is says so in the manual
[13:42] <ikonia> hang on
[13:43] <ikonia> mbl: the manual suggests the hot swap functionaly is driver dependant, not hardware enabled
[13:44] <huss_> could anyone tell me how to ask ubotu ?
[13:44] <ikonia> huss_: you've been told
[13:44] <mbl> ikonia: where does it suggest this?
[13:44] <ikonia> http://www.promise.com/marketing/datasheet/file/FT_TX2300_DS091406.pdf
[13:45] <Ximal> anyone know the name of the program that is compatible with teamspeak servers/ventrillo servers ?
[13:46] <ikonia> Ximal: isn't there a team speak client for linux ?
[13:47] <Ximal> aye .... i have it... but the inpute and other stuff is erronous
[13:47] <Ximal> i figured a linux built native program be best..
[13:47] <huss_> ikonia, I'm sorry I couldn't read it

[13:48] <abdulla> is it better to use Opera with WINE a windows opera or a ubuntu opera ?
[13:48] <ikonia> abdulla: wine uses windows executables only
[13:48] <abdulla> because opera in ubuntu is very weird some times the video just greys out and i must refresh the page to start fromt he start
[13:49] <abdulla> i hope they update and fix this problem .
[13:49] <mbl> ikonia: where did you find the information about the driver dependancy?
[13:49] <ikonia> mbl: google
[13:49] <ikonia> mbl: the driver is not open source
[13:49] <ikonia> mbl: you'll need to use the promise propritary driver to get functionality
[13:49] <abdulla> btw ikonia is ATI x1800 ok for ubuntu ? i have a geforce4 mx440 somewere ? which you recommend?
[13:49] <ikonia> mbl: it's basiclly a form of fake raid for what I'm reading
[13:50] <ikonia> abdulla: personal preference always makes me lean towards nvidia for the moment
[13:50] <huss_> why do wine hang up my desktop ? and also cxoffice
[13:50] <drarem> ok I've copied audiere to a directory and did a ./configure, make and make install.. where is the linkage?
[13:50] <mbl> ikonia: i don't need the raid features though, just hot swapping
[13:50] <ikonia> drarem: linkage ?
[13:50] <abdulla> the mx440 is 64mb lo
[13:50] <ikonia> mbl: the hotswap is part of the raid
[13:50] <abdulla> isnt 512mb better?
[13:50] <ikonia> mbl: as I read it
[13:50] <drarem> the audiere library I need to link to
[13:50] <ikonia> drarem: link to it ? you specificed an install tree in ./configure
[13:50] <gast14> hello, i am ooking for a font that looks like the letters the Military uses for a spraying project, but cannot find anything under Military Font
[13:51] <gast14> any suggestions
[13:51] <abdulla> ikonia, but if i start ubuntu with the x1800 will it work? i mean xgl aswell
[13:51] <ikonia> abdulla: debatable
[13:51] <abdulla> :(
[13:51] <mbl> ikonia: i found various different information on that...but no one ever seemed to have tried it actually
[13:51] <ikonia> mbl: I don't think it will work
[13:51] <ikonia> mbl: the advanced functions seem driver dependant
[13:51] <ikonia> mbl: promise make weak controllers for raid/raid functions
[13:52] <abdulla> ikonia, can i use mx440 then after somewhat ubuntu figures out something for ATI cards then i remove the nvidia and put the ATI will the system recognize such steps ?
[13:52] <ikonia> abdulla: sure
[13:52] <mbl> ikonia: yes but great for limited bugeds normally
[13:52] <ikonia> mbl: I disagree
[13:53] <mbl> ikonia: could you suggest a goood controller supporting hotswap under ubuntu? two channels would be enough...
[13:53] <ikonia> mbl: not of the top of my head, but anything with native linux support is good
[13:53] <huss_> wine and cxoffice always hang up my ubuntu do anyone know why?
[13:53] <zhn> hi
[13:53] <sunogbaga> huss_ low mem i guess
[13:53] <ikonia> sunogbaga: why ?
[13:54] <jarryd> ok anyone can help? video playback is too dark in every program and i dont know how to fix it
[13:54] <Stevethepirate> If i have a laptop with Turbocache memory... will Ubuntu support that at all?
[13:54] <sunogbaga> how much ram do you have? and how many apps do u usually run at the same time?
[13:54] <mbl> ikonia: native linux support is not that wide spread in the low buged
[13:54] <ikonia> mbl: true
[13:54] <Stevethepirate> Well, 2gig ddr2-667 and 1gig turbocache
[13:54] <erisco> how do I type special characters with ubuntu? Holding the alt key does not work
[13:55] <huss_> sunogbaga, 1 giga I don't think so ,or what do u mean wz mem
[13:55] <Stevethepirate> But i'm talking about wining games for example.
[13:55] <zhn> anyone can help?i'm a beginner,who can tell me how to use wine?
[13:55] <erisco> 5
[13:55] <abdulla> ikonia, does ubuntu use more power? because my laptop heats quick and loses alot of battery power
[13:55] <ikonia> abdulla: shouldn't
[13:55] <Stevethepirate> zhn: google can.. or #wine
[13:55] <IdleOne> zhn: /join #winehq
[13:55] <sunogbaga> zhn just wine <prog.exe>
[13:55] <mbl> ikonia: you haven't built the promise driver for linux, have you?
[13:55] <wols_> abdulla: more than what?
[13:55] <abdulla> ikonia, ?what you guessing?
[13:55] <ikonia> I have a while ago
[13:55] <zhn> 5??what does it mean?
[13:56] <ikonia> abdulla: no, it shouldn't use more power
[13:56] <abdulla> wols_, my 3 hour battery dies in 1 hour 20minutes
[13:56] <jarryd> does anyone know about video playback being too dark and not ebing able to fix it
[13:56] <wols_> abdulla: answer my question
[13:56] <abdulla> wols_, with windows it stays for 3 hours
[13:56] <mbl> iconia: because there is just one file in the package containing c code...no readme, no manual...
[13:56] <krim> jarryd: Which program? How have you tried to fix it?
[13:57] <ikonia> mbl: not done it for a while, as I recall they have a support mailing list
[13:57] <jarryd> every video playback VLC and totem
[13:57] <Zemp_> good mornign all
[13:57] <ikonia> mbl: is it just a .c file ?
[13:57] <huss_> how to install fluxbox on ubuntu
[13:57] <huss_> ?
[13:57] <Zemp_> sudp apt-get install fluxbox
[13:57] <abdulla> wols_, the system heats up and i can feel under the laptop its very hot + laptop battery doesnt stay long as it should
[13:57] <Zemp_> sudo*
[13:57] <jarryd> and i tried to fix it by installing gxvattr but it doesnt remember any settings
[13:57] <Zemp_> sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[13:57] <krim> jarryd: In preferences in Totem you can change brightness, contrast, hue and saturation, didn't that work?
[13:58] <jarryd> well i can try
[13:58] <jarryd> but the native setting is to dark
[13:58] <wols_> abdulla: check if your acpi works, if the cpu clocks down,etc
[13:58] <mbl> ikonia: the file's name acualle is "1_ft tx2300 and tx2200 linux kernel 2.6 psc v.2.6.0331-2"
[13:58] <Stevethepirate> abdulla:  well. linux does cache a lot more, and more efficiently than windows.
[13:58] <Zemp_> abdulla: kol khara
[13:58] <wols_> abdulla: use powertop
[13:58] <zhn>  anyone can help?i'm a beginner,who can tell me how to use wine?
[13:58] <Stevethepirate> so it could be over caching.
[13:58] <abdulla> i have that
[13:58] <jarryd> cant i fix that since i belive its not the playback programs but the acutal video card
[13:58] <jarryd> or driver or something
[13:58] <Zemp_> good that you have it
[13:58] <sunogbaga> zhn just wine <prog.exe>
[13:58] <Stevethepirate> zhn: type "/join #wine" and ask in there.
[13:59] <Stevethepirate> sunogbaga: he probably wants to wine a game.
[13:59] <Stevethepirate> that's quite new
[13:59] <huss_> Zemp_, I did but that fluxbox is so hard to use and I've seen it so easy wz some friend so what is that deference?
[13:59] <abdulla> wols_, acpi ? what you mean
[13:59] <krim> jarryd: I don't know, you could check if you have the latest drivers for your video card, but why not just change the settings in Totem?
[13:59] <wols_> !acpi
[13:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acpi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[13:59] <jarryd> yeah i didnt realize that chaning it in totem would affect VLC too
[13:59] <jarryd> that worked
[14:00] <jarryd> thanks!
[14:00] <zarac> my sound isn't working.. any suggestions on where to start? .. it was working before.. then just stopped... also.. i have 2 sound cards and i'd like to have both working
 somebody said acpi was Advanced Configuration and Power Interface -- a power management interface that gives more control to the BIOS, or horribly horribly broken. for suspend software check http://sourceforge.net/projects/swsusp/ , or "run this arbitrary code in ring 0", or http://acpi.sf.net/, or generally better than APM but see also swsusp, or for a list of
[14:00] <wols_>              supported systems/BIOSes, see http://acpi.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/InstallationReports
[14:00] <sunogbaga> !sudo
[14:00] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[14:00] <abdulla> wols_, in powertop this what it says cond : 208.0    interval: 15.0s
[14:00] <abdulla> no ACPI power usage estimate available
[14:00] <mbl> ikonia: sorry, my fault, i extracted the file the wrong way
[14:00] <mbl> ikonia: there is a readme
[14:00] <zOap> how do I do recursive chmod in ftp in terminal?
[14:01] <abdulla> wols_, should i remove the adapter to see how it is in battery mode?
[14:01] <Zemp_> how do you send private on IRC ?
[14:01] <mbl> ikonia: I will give it a try, thank you so far!
[14:01] <vecna> use /query nickname
[14:01] <Zemp_> ok thanks.
[14:02] <t-om> or /message
[14:02] <Pici> who goes !register
[14:02] <Pici> !register
[14:02] <ubotu> By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about  registering your Freenode nick can be found at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration

[14:02] <zOap> sunogbaga, yes
[14:03] <huss_> is it possible to convert ununtu into debian?
[14:03] <IdleOne> huss_: no
[14:03] <IdleOne> best bet is backup your /home and then do a fresh install
[14:03] <michael_> heihei
[14:04] <michael_> wo de lp
[14:04] <michael_> 我的老婆不要我了
[14:04] <huss_> what is the deference between ubuntu and debian ?
[14:04] <Pici> !debian | huss_
[14:04] <ubotu> huss_: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[14:04] <gordonjcp> huss_: debian hasn't got as many U's in the name
[14:05] <Daeshim> Howdy
[14:06] <Daeshim> got any Lineage 2 players here?
[14:06] <cre8torx_> hello
[14:06] <Daeshim> How are you?
[14:06] <huss_> pici, yes debian is it .....!!
[14:06] <zarac> any hints on where to start looking if my sound isn't working?
[14:07] <gordonjcp> zarac: speakers plugged in?
[14:07] <gordonjcp> ;-)
[14:07] <zarac> yes they are
[14:07] <zarac> =D

[14:08] <zarac> =/
[14:09] <dakira> a question: my computer just crashed and I was editing a text in gedit. does gedit maybe have a file where i could recover the text i was editing?
[14:09] <dave81> can any one help me get my webcam working?
[14:10] <zarac> 'speaker-test -t wav -c 2' gives me no sound
[14:10] <abdulla> zarac, if its a PC try to plug the speaker cord to the motherboard built in sound card rather then PCI card
[14:10] <jayesh_> i have a problem with ubuntu http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47685/
[14:11] <sunogbaga> dakira look for swap files... vim always do that
[14:11] <zarac> hmm i guess.. i haven't actually tried that.. i have 2 cards.. and i want both working.. i don't think the internal one is even installed though
[14:11] <jayesh_> i am trying to start a new ad-hoc network
[14:11] <zarac> actually i have tried it =D got both speakers on
[14:11] <zarac> >=D
[14:12] <abdulla> zarac, but you still want to use PCI card right>
[14:12] <cdavis> does anyone have evolution 2.21 running on gutsy?
[14:12] <zarac> yes i do.. and the internal one
[14:12] <zarac> i want both working
[14:12] <zarac> at the time.. neither works
[14:12] <dakira> sunogbaga: yeah.. joe does it, too.. gedit apparently doesn't ;(
[14:12] <cdavis> zarac, you mean neither one works right now?
[14:13] <zarac> exactly =D
[14:13] <abdulla> with My PC sometimes it works on the internet sometimes on the PCI , in every restart it chooses what it wants lol
[14:13] <sunogbaga> dakira too bad then..
[14:13] <jrib> dakira: thought it did something like .filename~
[14:13] <Daeshim> Anyone play any pc games?

[14:14] <Dralid> I have an Ubuntu box that I installed MythTV on, but cannot get to work properly. The Capture card is a SiliconDust HDHomerun. I can get it to stream to VLC fine, but have problems with the stream on Myth. I think it is a decoding problem, as a approx 4:3 box is filled with random colors when I attempt to stream. Any suggestions?
[14:14] <Daeshim> It's not cartoonish like WoW is
[14:14] <stefko> Hello someone can tell me how to set a my own vhost for a psyBNC i run the psybnc from my own box and i have domain can someone tell me a ?
[14:15] <neko_> is there some simple way to mount a smb share and have access to it via a console ?
[14:15] <wols_> stefko: DNS
[14:15] <abdulla> Daeshim, i might go back to PoQo
[14:15] <Daeshim> stefano: reverse dns or use ipv6 tunnel
[14:15] <abdulla> Daeshim, Prince of Qin Online
[14:15] <wols_> neko_: mount -t smbfs
[14:15] <Daeshim> stefko:
[14:15] <ikonia> neko_: yes, no problem, just mount as a normal file system and access through the directory structure
[14:15] <Daeshim> wrong person
[14:15] <neko_> okey no other way so
[14:15] <stefko> bash: DNS: command not found
[14:15] <stefko> :S
[14:15] <stefko> like /dns storm.mkhost.org
[14:15] <stefko> on the psybnc
[14:15] <ikonia> stefko: dns is not a command
[14:16] <stefko> VHOST
[14:16] <stefko> ohh
[14:16] <abdulla> ikonia, can Ubuntu be installed in PS3 or Nintendo Wii or Xbox or Xbox360?
[14:16] <stefko> so have some commands ?
[14:16] <wols_> stefko: DNS is the domain name system. you have to enter it with your DNS server
[14:16] <neko_> i will make me some little script to mount this it seem a good solution
[14:16] <ikonia> abdulla: an ps3 but its is very limited
[14:16] <abdulla> limiteed?
[14:16] <Daeshim> If you are on residental connections reverse dns won't be possible because most isps won't allow it
[14:16] <stefko> wols_: aha so how i can set it a ?
[14:16] <wols_> stefko: there is no command unless you serve your own DNS which is unlikely
[14:16] <fevel> when I boot my system the first line I see is "pci bios bug"
[14:16] <Daeshim> you would be better off finding an ipv6 tunnel broker
[14:16] <abdulla> how come not the xbox :9
[14:16] <ikonia> limited yes, very little direct hardware access
[14:16] <fevel> is that normall?
[14:16] <ikonia> abdulla: not compatible
[14:17] <wols_> stefko: same way you set the DNS for mkhost.org
[14:17] <stefko> yes
[14:17] <abdulla> ikonia, is Ubuntu releasing a UbuntU mobile edition any time soon?
[14:17] <rinaldi_> hi i just installed gutsy and tried to install flash plugin for firefox. when i did the command in terminal. Can someone tell me if this is normal? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47686/    if so then why is firefox telling me i need to install the plugin when i go somewhere like youtube?
[14:17] <stefko> try dns /dns inqognito.com
[14:17] <stefko> this one is the SITE
[14:17] <stefko> i have just domain
[14:17] <stefko> nothing else
[14:17] <stefko> and psybnc
[14:17] <stefko> and i want to make a vhost my own
[14:17] <stefko> can i do that ?
[14:18] <wols_> what do you mean with "vhost"?
[14:18] <ikonia> abdulla: there is a mobile edition, or "embedded edition" I'm not sure of it's current release statment
[14:18] <stefko>  /whois stefko
[14:18] <ikonia> abdulla: release status sorry
[14:18] <_ruben> stefko: no, unless you have some spare unused ip addresses you could use for it
[14:18] <stefko> * [stefko] (n=stefko@<IP_ADDRESS>): stefko
[14:18] <stefko> The IP
[14:18] <abdulla> ikonia, for Mini-Tablets or iphone and imate .. and maybe the new system phones or ZeuX Microsoft mp3 player .
[14:18] <sunogbaga> rinaldi_ flashplugin-nonfree is broken., righ ikonia?
[14:18] <wols_> stefko: fix your reverse dns
[14:18] <ikonia> sunogbaga corry
[14:18] <stefko> wols_: where to go ?
[14:18] <abdulla> :/
[14:18] <ikonia> abdulla: thats the idea
[14:18] <wols_> stefko: again, your DNS server
[14:18] <ikonia> sunogbaga: sorry, ses
[14:18] <ikonia> sunogbaga: yes
[14:19] <wols_> stefko: DOMAINCONTROL.COM
[14:19] <stefko>  inqognito.com has address <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:19] <stefko> u see
[14:19] <stefko> i have just domain
[14:19] <stefko> nothing else
[14:19] <stefko>  :S
[14:19] <neko_> hey stefko
[14:19] <rinaldi_> sunogbaga: well i had it working in my last installation but i did a reinstall, should i have installed anythiing else or should i just do gnash
[14:19] <wols_> stefko: I told you where to go
[14:19] <ikonia> rinaldi_: the flash plugin currenlt has an installation issue that is being fixed
[14:19] <stefko> wols_: where ? system > application a ?
[14:19] <neko_> user have no right to mount smbfs share :(
[14:20] <wols_> stefko: not on your ubuntu at all
[14:20] <_ruben> stefko: if all you got is a domain, then you cant make a vhost with it
[14:20] <rinaldi_> ikonia: ok thanks
[14:20] <stefko> wols_: so where ?
[14:20] <neko_> sorry
[14:20] <neko_> i mean ikonia or wols
[14:20] <Daeshim> You only have forward dns
[14:20] <wols_> stefko: for the LAST time: to your DNS provider which is domaincontrol.com apparently
[14:20] <Daeshim> not reverse
[14:20] <ikonia> neko_: use sudo
[14:20] <Daeshim> So it can't reverse to your hostname
[14:20] <mnemonica> Hey, I was messing around with some boot splash stuff... Now I'm getting this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47687/  on startup... Any ideas as to how I can get rid of it?
[14:20] <wols_> neko_: use sudo
[14:21] <neko_> ah damn i would have a script to automate this
[14:21] <neko_> gksudo is the way ?
[14:21] <abdulla> ikonia, are you a webdesigner
[14:21] <ikonia> mnemonica: you've meessed up your "vga" option as a kernel boot argument
[14:21] <ikonia> abdulla: no
[14:21] <wols_> neko_: gksudo is not terminal or commandline. I said sudo
[14:21] <mnemonica> ikonia: Mmmmk... So how do I fix that?
[14:21] <ikonia> mnemonica: you could try vga=ask to find the correct option through trial and error
[14:22] <mnemonica> ikonia: Well, when I choose one it just changes the font or whatever and then loads. Every time I boot. If I do vga=ask, will that "solve" it, or just help figure out what's wrong?
[14:23] <bentob0x> a good Hardware RAID card for linux, anybody has an advice?
[14:23] <ikonia> mnemonica: what's wrong is y ou have the wrong option, ask will give you trial and error to work out the right option
[14:23] <Slart> bentob0x: get an expensive one.. those are usually good =)
[14:23] <wols_> bentob0x: 3ware
[14:23] <ikonia> bentob0x: any true hardware card with a native linux driver, expect to pay a minimum of $350
[14:23] <mnemonica> ikonia: Hmmf. Ok. I'll be back.
[14:23] <_ruben> bentob0x: software raid outperforms most hardware raid controllers, unlike you put down some major bucks
[14:23] <ikonia> bentob0x: 3ware or lsi
[14:24] <SmoothOp> does ubuntu work good on mac?
[14:24] <ikonia> SmoothOp: yes, a mac is just an intel pc now
[14:24] <SmoothOp> i realize that
[14:24] <bentob0x> yes I don't want fake/software raid
[14:24] <praveer_fedora> why doesnt :colorscheme work on ubuntu?
[14:24] <ikonia> bentob0x: softrware raid (not fake raid) is excellent
[14:24] <bentob0x> I don't mind paying > 300EUR , it's for a server
[14:24] <cliebow_> SmoothOp, on mac some things are difficult...
[14:24] <praveer_fedora> Sorr, :colorscheme on vim
[14:24] <lundnd> hey guys any ideas on how to get sudo rake to work ?
[14:25] <bentob0x> depends on which card then ikonia
[14:25] <_ruben> praveer_fedora: sudo apt-get install vim (the default (vim-tiny) is rather limited)
[14:25] <praveer_fedora> _ruben, ok thank you
[14:25] <Slart> bentob0x: get a reliable brand name.. one you know will be around as long as you use the raid-card.. it's quite upsetting to have a dead raid-card you can't replace and tons of data you can't get to any more..
[14:25] <ikonia> bentob0x: 9/10 it will be stunning as long as there is basic jbod support
[14:25] <rico> hey, it seems like most of the software in the repositories are outdated (there are new versions coming out and the repos versions aren't updated). whats the best way to update these software?
[14:25] <rico> i've been usually compiling from source
[14:26] <wols_> ikonia: depends on the kind of server, if simple fileserver or DB server
[14:26] <bentob0x> it's for raid 0+1
[14:26] <dave81> _ruben where can we get this software?
[14:26] <sake> buntu-pl
[14:26] <ikonia> wols_: yes, certainly
[14:26] <wols_> ikonia: you don't want to run software raid on a DB server
[14:26] <sake> #Ubuntu-pl
[14:26] <ikonia> wols_: I have done it without issue in the past, but the users need is key
[14:26] <wols_> sake: /join #ubuntu-pl
[14:26] <wols_> ikonia: and the budget
[14:26] <juano__> rico: actually the thing is that ubuntu stays with stable builds and doesn't update everytime a program upgrades to a newer version
[14:26] <ikonia> very key
[14:27] <Slart> rico: wait until there is a new version of ubuntu?.. compiling and installing software yourself kind of breaks the idea of having a software repository
[14:27] <mnemonica> ikonia: Hey... Tried to put vga=ask, but it won't let me. It's only allowing four characters. So I get to vga= and then what I type doesn't actually enter on screen.
[14:27] <cre8torx> hello
[14:27] <ikonia> mnemonica: where are you putting that
[14:27] <wols_> mnemonica: where do you type this exactly?
[14:28] <mnemonica> ikonia: where it was asking me to an option.
[14:28] <wols_> mnemonica: and this is where exactly?
[14:28] <juano__> Slart: i agree on that one
[14:29] <Guest16155> hello, can someone help me. i would like to remove from my system the "vncserver" what is the step for doing that ?
[14:29] <neko_> well sudoing mount a folder is cool but well, the user have no right on the mounted folder
[14:29] <mnemonica> ikonia: Like, in the pastebin, after the Video adapter: VESA VGA part and all of the options, it asks me to select an option
[14:29] <LjL> Guest16155: sudo apt-get remove vncserver?
[14:29] <neko_> (sorry for my english)
[14:30] <wols_> Guest16155: you've been told before a few times now
[14:30] <wols_> apt-get remove
[14:30] <juano__> Guest16155: use synaptic, search it and remove it completely
[14:30] <wols_> neko_: put the share in your fstab and give it the option "users"
[14:30] <neko_> that's the way i already knwo
[14:31] <cre8torx> anyone use nicotine
[14:31] <cre8torx> ?
[14:31] <dinesh86> hey can ppl help me edit my linux partition from live cd ?
[14:31] <abdulla> ikonia, i have windows installed in another partition can i start windows without restarting?

[14:31] <jonah> thanks

[14:31] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 the installer can help u
[14:31] <cre8torx> anyone here use Nicotine
[14:32] <mnemonica> ikonia: Any ideas, then?
[14:32] <dinesh86> abdulla: i am using live cd now
[14:32] <abdulla> why do you want to edit dinesh86 ? to install linux
[14:32] <gordonjcp> !samba | neko_
[14:32] <ubotu> neko_: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[14:32] <Slart> !repeat cre8torx
[14:32] <wols_> neko_: if it's properly in your fstab then you got your answer and a normal user can mount it
[14:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repeat cre8torx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[14:32] <dinesh86> abdulla: i want to edit using live  cd
[14:32] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 how many partitions do you have atm
[14:32] <Slart> !repeat | cre8torx
[14:32] <Slart> sorry
[14:32] <gordonjcp> neko_: if you follow the first link, it will let you add it to fstab
[14:32] <ubotu> cre8torx: 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
[14:32] <abdulla> oh so you dont want to install nothing
[14:32] <neko_> okey and if the share is not accessible
[14:32] <gordonjcp> neko_: then it should be ok for normal users
[14:32] <abdulla> dinesh86, use partition magic
[14:32] <neko_> it will not go mad ?
[14:32] <Guest16155> i did "sudo apt-get remove vncserver" but still when i typed on the terminal "vncserver" it still exists ?
[14:32] <cre8torx> no need
[14:32] <cdecarlo__> hello, I'm having trouble connecting to my work's vpn, it's over PPTP and I've installed the networkmanager-pptp extension, I can create the profile for the VPN connection but I can't find a place to tell the computer to connect
[14:32] <gordonjcp> neko_: if the share isn't available, it just won't mount it
[14:32] <neko_> because in the past i did this go in loop
[14:33] <dinesh86> abdulla: i want to edit grub info now
[14:33] <gordonjcp> neko_: it might wait for a while to see if it comes up
[14:33] <neko_> i give it a try
[14:33] <abdulla> !parition
[14:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about parition - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[14:33] <sunogbaga> Guest16155 how do you know it exists?
[14:33] <LjL> Guest16155: perhaps it's not "vncserver" that you have installed but another package providing that?
[14:33] <wols_> gordonjcp: without "auto" it won't even try as it should be
[14:33] <abdulla> !partition
[14:33] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[14:33] <neko_> again if it doesn't make the whole system go silly
[14:33] <LjL> Guest16155: try « dpkg -S /usr/bin/vncserver »
[14:33] <wols_> Guest16155: dpkg -l |grep vncserver

[14:33] <neko_> thanks for the advice
[14:33] <neko_> guys
[14:33] <abdulla> dinesh86, !partition
[14:33] <dinesh86> hello
[14:34] <dinesh86> u there abdulla ?
[14:34] <abdulla> yes
[14:34] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 how many partitions do you have atm?
[14:34] <Guest16155> LjL: so how can i find out whice packages refer to the command line "vncserver" ?
[14:34] <gordonjcp> wols_: true
[14:34] <LjL> Guest16155: err... i just told you? dpkg -S /usr/bin/vncserver
[14:34] <dinesh86> i have 2 partitions 1 windows 2 ubuntu
[14:34] <sunogbaga> Guest16155 how do you know vncserver exists?
[14:34] <wols_> Guest16155: please run dpkg -l |grep vncserver
[14:34] <dinesh86> i am using ubuntu live cd now
[14:34] <abdulla> he wants to edit partitions maybe he needs more space in windows or dunno.
[14:35] <dinesh86> i want to edit the grub info using live cd
[14:35] <LjL> wols_: that's not necessarily the best way, since for instance "vncserver" is also provided by "vnc4server"
[14:35] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 It seems u don't need help on partitioning anymore
[14:35] <Guest16155> LjL: i get this msg :  dpkg -S /usr/bin/vncserver
[14:36] <dinesh86> yes suno, i want to edit my grub using live cd
[14:36] <dinesh86> can i ?
[14:36] <abdulla> i have a program which runs in the taskbar but i want it to show an icon up in the system tray so i can hide it any ideas ?
[14:36] <LjL> Guest16155: message? that's the *command* you typed, isn't it
[14:36] <mrak> hello there
[14:36] <wols_> dinesh86: yes. what exactly do you want to do?
[14:36] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 yes you can
[14:36] <mrak> i have a question about firefox in gutsy
[14:36] <Guest16155> LjL: sorry fix .. : dpkg: /usr/bin/vncserver not found.
[14:36] <juano__> abdulla: alltray
[14:36] <wols_> Guest16155: dpkg -S `which vncserver`
[14:36] <dinesh86> my partitions have not been mounted
[14:37] <sunogbaga> Guest16155 then vncserver is uninstalled
[14:37] <dinesh86> and not visible
[14:37] <juano__> abdulla: i don't remember if its only for kde though... try checkin it out from the repos
[14:37] <jimqode> I couldn't find Ion window manager on gutsy repos. Is it just me? Or does it really not exist?
[14:37] <LjL> Guest16155: yes, what wols said, i thought it was in /usr/bin but i guess it isn't
[14:37] <juano__> abdulla: alltray
[14:37] <wols_> dinesh86: not a grub problem
[14:37] <maxsoft> hi all. wich is the easiest way to share folder with windowsUser ?
[14:37] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 you will have to mount them manually
[14:37] <wols_> LjL: he played around with realvnc before
[14:37] <mnemonica> ikonia: Hello?
[14:37] <dinesh86> wols: i want to edit my grub now using ubuntu live cd
[14:37] <wols_> mnemonica: can you answer my question please
[14:37] <Guest16155> LjL: wait i will pastbin the output of the terminal when i typed "vncserver"
[14:37] <abdulla> thanks juano__
[14:37] <praveer_fedora> _ruben, even after installing vim though colorscheme is working but the colors of the text arent changing, like this http://img80.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotdg3.png
[14:37] <wols_> dinesh86: partitions that aren't mounted is no grub problem
[14:37] <LjL> wols_: ah wait *no* package provides a "vncserver" executable. it's probably just a link created by postinst scripts.
[14:38] <juano__> abdulla: your welcome
[14:38] <mrak> if i go to some "hard" page i mean lot of css and images it stacks for time ... when page loaded it goes .. any1 know where is problem?
[14:38] <wols_> Guest16155: dpkg -l |grep -i vnc
[14:38] <praveer_fedora> _ruben, how do I make the colors appear even in the script/program?
[14:38] <Tyczek> hi
[14:38] <dinesh86> suno and wols:pls wait
[14:38] <sean__> I can't get my wireless adapter to work.
[14:38] <Tyczek> i have a question about mplayer... can you help me ?
[14:38] <mnemonica> wols_: It asks me to select an option (which, if you look in the pastebin I posted, my options range from 0-8). ikonia said to put vga=ask, but I can't.
[14:38] <abhi> i want to know if compiz fusion will work with my new dell vostro 1400's X3100 graphics card
[14:39] <fsp_dan> hard to google an answer to this one:   What is the prefered ubuntu key agent?  ssh-agent, gpg-agent, seahorse, what?
[14:39] <wols_> mnemonica: you get a prompt for inputting something, fine. but what do you do to get this prompt?
[14:39] <osphy> what is the url for full image of ubuntu DVD with all dev and utils?
[14:39] <mnemonica> wols_: I hit enter
[14:39] <LjL> !gpg > fsp_dan    (fsp_dan, see the private message from Ubotu)
[14:39] <mnemonica> wols_: I have to either hit enter or space.
[14:39] <wols_> mnemonica: hit enter WHERE?
[14:39] <Tyczek> I mean...which codec is better gl or gl2-multi texture?
[14:39] <mnemonica> goddamnit... hold on... reposting pastebin
[14:39] <dinesh86> suno: i am not able to mount
[14:40] <dinesh86> mount: can't find /media/hda6 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[14:40] <wols_> mnemonica: use mode 0
[14:40] <dinesh86> mount: can't find /media/hda6 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[14:40] <sean__> I'd use Ubuntu if I could freakin get online >.<
[14:40] <Guest16155> wols: here is the link to my pastbin on the command u gave me : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47692/
[14:40] <wols_> dinesh86: that's NOT grub
[14:40] <sunogbaga> praveer_fedora edit /etc/vimrc add syntax on
[14:40] <osphy> is there any dvd version of gutsy which contains all the dev packages ?
[14:40] <Guest16155> wols_: here is the link to my pastbin on the command u gave me : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47692/
[14:41] <wols_> Guest16155: what does   which vncserver  say?
[14:41] <dinesh86> wols:say i want to look into my linux partition from live cd
[14:41] <mnemonica> wols_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47687/ <<<<<----------- There... After that I get a prompt.    And I've -tried- that. and although it allows me to continue to boot, it still comes back when I reboot. I DO NOT want to see this option. I don't want to think about it. It only presented this option to me after I messed around with some boot splash stuff.
[14:41] <wols_> dinesh86: it should be already mounted. run simply "mount"
[14:41] <akhilesh> Why does kacpi take so much CPU ? http://pastebin.ca/810991   Infact, the system hangs so many times. Please help.
[14:41] <wols_> mnemonica: pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[14:42] <praveer_fedora> sunogbaga, thank you, its working
[14:42] <dinesh86> wols: they are not ! i am using ubuntu dapper no partitions visible
[14:42] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 use mount /dev/hdx /media/blah/blah
[14:42] <wols_> dinesh86: fdisk -l
[14:42] <Guest16155> wols_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47693/
[14:42] <LjL> Guest16155, he said "which vncserver"
[14:42] <wols_> Guest16155: I said "which vncservre"
[14:42] <wols_> Guest16155: I said "which vncserver"
[14:42] <mnemonica> wols_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47694/   Tada.
[14:42] <akhilesh> does anyone see slow performance due to acpi ?
[14:43] <Guest16155> wols_: /usr/local/bin/vncserver
[14:43] <wols_> mnemonica: see the "vga=795"? change it to vga=792
[14:44] <LjL> Guest16155: then you installed it manually, without using the packaging system... in this case, only you should know how to remove it.
[14:44] <mnemonica> wols_: Mmmk.
[14:44] <sean__> I'm just not cut out for Linux.
[14:44] <LjL> if you don't, well i suggest next time you use the packaging system rather than fiddling with things you don't know
[14:44] <wols_> Guest16155: this is your former realvnc installation, not any ubuntu software
[14:44] <ezzieyguywuf> i'm trying to build a package using the following command : bash <ati driver>.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/gutsy   but it keeps telling me that the package is not supported. When i use the command --listpkg, the Ubuntu packages ends at feisty or 7.04 . what do i need to update to get support for gutsy packages?
[14:44] <dinesh86> mount: mount point /media/hda5 does not exist
[14:44] <wols_> Guest16155: ask realvnc how to unisntall
[14:44] <wols_> sunogbaga: mount /dev/hdx is NEVER right
[14:44] <wols_> dinesh86: what did fdisk -l say?
[14:45] <dinesh86> suno: tell me the syntax then
[14:45] <LjL> ezzieyguywuf: why don't you just use the ATI driver that's in the standard, official gutsy repositories? :)
[14:45] <dinesh86> wols:wait
[14:45] <sunogbaga> wols_ why?
[14:45] <sunogbaga> yup show us fdisk -l
[14:45] <wols_> sunogbaga: hdx is no partition. while you can format a whole disk with a filesystem it's bad
[14:45] <mnemonica> wols_: can't save it... don't have permissions... how do I open it using sudo?
[14:45] <dinesh86> wols:fdisk dint print anything
[14:45] <wols_> mnemonica: sudo nano <file>
[14:46] <mnemonica> wols_: awesome. thank you.
[14:46] <sunogbaga> wols_ i just used x to refer to the hdd partion number
[14:46] <wols_> dinesh86: dmesg output. paste it to a pastebin. all of it
[14:46] <Ljorring> can someone confirm, that Ubuntu has a kernel bug related to the RTL8185 chipset used in some network cards?
[14:46] <ezzieyguywuf> LjL: i'm trying to fix my suspend, so i recompiled a kernel with Slug instead of SLAG (or whichever one is older, can't remember). i'm following the howto from this website (http://blog.vaxius.net/?p=19#comment-133). do you think your solution is a valid alternative to that step?
[14:46] <wols_> sunogbaga: hdx is a disk, hdx# is a partition. see the difference?
[14:47] <sunogbaga> wols_ aigh't i'll be careful next time
[14:47] <jonah> hi i have a skype problem, no microphone, not sure what to do...
[14:47] <wols_> jonah: does mic work in other programs?
[14:47] <sean__> I'm trying to install the drivers for my Netgear WG311v3 wireless PCI adapter. It says it wraps it ok, but when I ndiswrapper -l it says wg311v3 : invalid driver!
[14:47] <JimmyDee> any kind souls wanna help me get something to connect to icecast server to play my tunes out?
[14:47] <wols_> sean__: what chip is this netgear using?
[14:47] <LjL> ezzieyguywuf: uhm no, but i suspect those instructions are likely to break other things even if they might fix your suspend. the road *i* would follow is to post a detailed bug report (if there isn't one already, or if there is one already, post a more detailed comment)
[14:47] <sean__> I don't know. How do I find out?
[14:48] <jonah> wols_, not sure, is there any test i can do?
[14:48] <wols_> sean__: lspci
[14:48] <dinesh86> i guess this is wat required mount: mount point /media/hda5 does not exist
[14:48] <wols_> jonah: audacity
[14:48] <dinesh86> dmesg output
[14:48] <cdecarlo__> hello, I'm having trouble connecting to my work's vpn, it's over PPTP and I've installed the networkmanager-pptp extension, I can create the profile for the VPN connection but I can't find a place to tell the computer to connect
[14:48] <dinesh86> sorry
[14:48] <ezzieyguywuf> LjL: what do you think would get broken. I believe the only change made was using SLAG instead of SLUG
[14:48] <wols_> dinesh86: no. when there is nothing shown in fdisk -l, ubuntu doesn't recognize anything to mount
[14:48] <sean__> Marvell
[14:48] <Tyczek> is anybody have that problem : enabled compiz and mplayer= movie is blinking?
[14:48] <jonah> wols_, ok just opened up sound recorder and no my mic doesn't work in that
[14:49] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 create a dir under /media named hda5 if you have that format
[14:49] <wols_> jonah: unmute it with a alsa mixer app maybe (I guess sound itself works?)
[14:49] <dinesh86>  hda: hda1 hda2 < hda5 hda6 hda7 >
[14:49] <wols_> dinesh86: then why would sudo fdisk -l ?
[14:49] <mnemonica> wols_: When I do "sudo nano menu.lst     there isn't anything there. it says its a new file
[14:49] <wols_> dinesh86: but as dinesh86 said. mkdir /media/hda5
[14:49] <sunogbaga> dinesh86 it's mounting on a nonexistent dir. see man mount
[14:50] <wols_> mnemonica: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst    full path
[14:50] <mnemonica> wols_: Eh... should've figured...
[14:50] <sunogbaga> wols_ i didn't see that post
[14:50] <abhi> hey how do i get desktop effects to work on gutsy on X3100/Intel 965??? :(
[14:50] <_coredump_> Tyczek, yes, disable Xv video rendering to x11 in mplayer preferences
[14:50] <JimmyDee> !icecast
[14:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about icecast - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[14:50] <wols_> sunogbaga: my mistake. didn't say "sudo" stupid ubuntuism :P
[14:51] <kex> hello, how do i play region 2 (europe?) dvds? :s
[14:51] <mnemonica> wols_: Rebooting. See you in a bit...
[14:51] <wols_> JimmyDee: state your problem more concisely. what did you do, what did you expect, what didn't work as intendd?
[14:51] <Tyczek> _coredump_, I'm using gl2, cause on full screen movie looks better
[14:51] <wols_> !dvd | kex
[14:51] <ubotu> kex: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[14:51] <Tyczek> i have wide lcd-laptop screen ;/
[14:51] <kex> wols, thank you :)
[14:51] <_coredump_> Tyczek, nvidia or ati graphics?
[14:51] <Tyczek> ati ;/
[14:51] <wols_> kex: medibuntu has some package with the name "regio" in it to change region codes
[14:51] <JimmyDee> I need help connecting audacious or something like it to icecast-server as a source
[14:51] <dinesh86> wols: it worked ! i mkdir n ounted
[14:51] <akhilesh> how do I disable kacpi ?
[14:52] <wols_> akhilesh: acpi=off
[14:52] <kex> wols_, but i have ubuntu not medibuntu :s
[14:52] <wols_> kex: but you will need medibuntu repositories or you cannot watch DVDs
[14:52] <DARKGuy> hey guys, how can I configure my screensaver settings like the old screensaver manager?
[14:52] <wols_> !medibuntu | kex
[14:52] <ubotu> kex: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[14:53] <genii> JimmyDee: google oddcast
[14:53] <kex> wols_ aha ok ^^
[14:53] <akhilesh> wols_:  where do I do that ?
[14:53] <akhilesh> kacpi = off ?
[14:53] <_coredump_> Tyczek, its a known bug with compiz, you have to switch to x11 video output, mplayer or gstreamer-settings if you are using gstreamer-player
[14:53] <wols_> akhilesh: kernel parameter. your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[14:53] <wols_> akhilesh: do you have a notebook or a desktop?
[14:53] <Tyczek> _coredump_, ok I'll test
[14:53] <wols_> akhilesh: I didn't say kacpi = off
[14:54] <wols_> akhilesh: read more carefully. again: desktop or laptop?
[14:54] <mnemonica> wols_: nope. No luck.
[14:54] <akhilesh> desktop
[14:54] <mnemonica> wols_:  I'm assuming I've gotta change that vga option to something else. Any other ideas?
[14:54] <wols_> mnemonica: remove the vga option
[14:54] <_coredump_> Tyczek, or disable compiz effects and use the default desktop setting, thats should work too
[14:55] <wols_> akhilesh: then acpi is not needed. acpi is for powersaving, which is important on notebooks
[14:56] <Tyczek> _coredump_, It only works on ximage/shm, but in full-screen image is scalling and setting center... i think disabling compiz and the movie-time is the best option right?
[14:56] <Tyczek> at*
[14:56] <mnemonica> wols_: rebooting... "Aall beh baak"
[14:56] <linduxed> hey all
[14:57] <_coredump_> Tyczek, yes think thats the best option
[14:57] <Tyczek> and last question... wchich is output is better- gl or gl2?
[14:57] <linduxed> before reboot i watched some movies and listened to some music, after reboot...no sound
[14:57] <linduxed> any ideas on what it could be?
[14:58] <_coredump_> Tyczek, on my system switching to the latest nvidia drivers fixed the problem...dunno if there are ati-betas available
[14:58] <sean__> Any ideas wols_?
[14:58] <brobostigon> hi
[14:58] <Tyczek> _coredump_, I think there isn't betas ;/
[14:58] <linduxed> when i press the volume control it says that the either is no device or the gstreamer plugin is missing
[14:58] <Tyczek> arent*
[14:58] <wols_> sean__: no since I don't have a marvell chip
[14:58] <linduxed> dont know why either would go missing because of a reboot...
[14:58] <_coredump_> Tyczek, ati and linux is still a mess
[14:59] <wols_> linduxed: new kernel since last reboot?
[14:59] <Tyczek> _coredump_, Yeah... but I think it'll change... I can't switch to my crt monitor...
[14:59] <sean__> Oh well I'll just reinstall Windows until my 100ft ethernet cable arrives. Thanks for the help.
[14:59] <Tyczek> It is messing my xorg...
[14:59] <linduxed> wols_: oh yeah i think there was an optional update that had been checked automatically
[14:59] <mnemonica> wols_: No luck. What next?
[15:00] <wols_> !sound | linduxed
[15:00] <ubotu> linduxed: 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 that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[15:00] <Jay-Oh-En> how do i do this "3. install the theme in KDE Control Center -> System Administration -> kdmtheme"? cant seem to find that
[15:00] <wols_> mnemonica: in what way did you mess?
[15:00] <wols_> with your splash image I mean
[15:01] <Tyczek> _coredump_, Thanks for help ;)
[15:01] <Daeshim> http://www.disturbingenigmas.com/~daiden/
[15:01] <_coredump_> Tyczek, yw
[15:01] <mnemonica> wols_: Yeah. I was just loading different boot splashes... *shrug* I didn't really change anything except which boot splash I was using.
[15:02] <wols_> mnemonica: sudo /sbin/update-grub
[15:02] <Mannequin> hi. I've a question, an easy one, I think. I'm using nicotine+ (a soulseek client) on xubuntu.
[15:02] <mnemonica> wols_: Leave the vga options out of menu.lst?
[15:02] <wols_> mnemonica: and I don't see any bootsplashes in your menu.lst
[15:03] <Mannequin> I'm not using the one from the repositories, but the latest version, download from its official website.
[15:03] <wols_> mnemonica: update-grub recreates the menu.lst
[15:03] <mnemonica> wols_: huzzah.
[15:03] <Mannequin> I've dropped the folder on my desktop and run the program by invoking "python ./nicotine"
[15:03] <Mannequin> now, I want to move the folder of this "standalone" program to a more conventional place on the linux filesystem
[15:03] <Mannequin> so, my question is: where is that place? where should I, by convention, put that folder?
[15:04] <mnemonica> wols_: Done. Try to reboot?
[15:04] <genii> Mannequin: /opt/<progname>
[15:04] <wols_> mnemonica: /usr/local
[15:04] <mnemonica> wols_: Eh?
[15:04] <wols_> mnemonica: yes
[15:04] <wols_> mnemonica: srry
[15:04] <Mannequin> thanks, genii.
[15:04] <wols_> Mannequin: /usr/local
[15:04] <mnemonica> wols_: :) it's all good.
[15:04] <mnemonica> wols_: rebooting...
[15:04] <Mannequin> ops, now I have another answer by wols_
[15:04] <Mannequin> should it be /opt/ or /usr/local ?
[15:05] <Mannequin> it is an "standalone" program.
[15:05] <Lumpy^> is there a way to run a command using shell and before that switch to root? when i do >> sudo /etc/mycmd restart its promt me a password.. can i do >> sudo adminpassword /etc/.... ?
[15:06] <sunogbaga> Mannequin /usr/local
[15:06] <Mannequin> and then, how I add it to the path? by adding a symlink from /usr/bin/? is that the conventional way?
[15:06] <wols_> Mannequin: you don't. /usr/local/bin is already in your path and there is where the binary (or symlink) should go
[15:06] <mnemonica> wols_: Excellent. Booted up nicely.
[15:06] <Jay-Oh-En> so can anybody help me with that
[15:06] <mnemonica> wols_: Thank you.
[15:06] <Quazion> Lumpy^: ever tried sudo bash to get a bash shell ?
[15:06] <Mannequin> ok, thanks sunogbaga. /usr/local/ wins
[15:06] <Lumpy^> is there a way to run a command using shell and before that switch to root? when i do >> sudo /etc/mycmd restart its promt me a password.. can i do >> sudo adminpassword /etc/.... ?
[15:07] <Arrick> morning all
[15:07] <mnemonica> Announcement: WOLS_ = <3
[15:07] <wols_> Lumpy^: always the same command?
[15:07] <kex> wols_ i could manage to get totem playing dvds, but then i installed vlc and it worked, why is this? :s
[15:07] <Chinaski1> hello , is it possible to restart firewire? . i  cannot mount an external hd. i found that it mounts only when i restart computer
[15:07] <wols_> kex: no clue
[15:07] <Arrick> I have a ubuntu 6.06.1 server install that isnt seeing my NIC card, but it did when I installed, anyone know how to make it find it again?
[15:07] <Mannequin> wols_: I have to move the whole program folder to /usr/local/ and then create a symlink in /usr/local/bin?
[15:08] <gordonjcp> Chinaski1: you could try unloading the module, then reloading it
[15:08] <wols_> Chinaski1: error message when you try to mount it and it doesn't work
[15:08] <Mannequin> remember that I have to run it by invoking "python ./nicotine"
[15:08] <wols_> Mannequin: not a bad idea. makes it easier to remove it again if needed
[15:08] <wols_> Mannequin: write a small script
[15:08] <Mannequin> ok, ok. i will try. Thanks wols_
[15:09] <Xteven> hi
[15:09] <sunogbaga> Mannequin or u can create a menu item for that
[15:09] <Xteven> can anyone tell me how to get webdavs working in ubuntu gutsy ? every time I try to go to a webdavs share, nautilus opens firefox and firefox says it doesn't support the protocol
[15:10] <Chinaski1> wols_no error messages simply i plug and nothing happens
[15:10] <chazco> Hi... anyone able to help with http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=608760 ?
[15:10] <wols_> Chinaski1: try to mount it with "mount". what happens
[15:10] <mnemonica> Hey... another issue that I'm having. Forgot about this one.... --->   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47698/      I think I'm missing a package or certain file or... something. Can't figure out what though.
[15:11] <Marriedman> Hey all, I need help on some terminology. In the Windows world, and Outlook in specific, there are archive folders. It retains the folder structure of the regular emails, but it keeps more recent emails from being lost in very old yet still important emails. How do I do this in Evolution?
[15:11] <Chinaski1> wols_ the disk is not on /dev/....
[15:11] <maxsoft> hi all. I've configurated SAMBA. I've a WindowsServer 2003. I would like map the fodler at startup (with no login). is it possible? thank you.
[15:11] <Chinaski1> i cannot mount
[15:11] <dinesh86> can ppl help me mount linux partitions
[15:11] <sunogbaga> Chinaski1 try fdisk -l
 how to unload and load?
[15:11] <dinesh86> win partition ia visible
[15:11] <kex> chazco, change distribution
[15:12] <wols_> Chinaski1: I asked for something, please answer
[15:12] <Anubis_be> hey all, can anyone tell me how I can let my /dev/md0 (witch is a raid5 device) mount on boot?
[15:12] <mnemonica> Anyone have any ideas?
[15:12] <wols_> dinesh86: man mount, what filesystem is on that partition?
[15:12] <dinesh86> ubuntu
[15:12] <Anubis_be> ext3
[15:12] <dinesh86> is it extfs
[15:13] <wols_> dinesh86: and what is the problem mounting it?
[15:13] <sunogbaga> Chinaski1 try fdisk -l
[15:13] <Chinaski1> wols_ the disk is not listed
[15:13] <dinesh86> its asking for type of fs
[15:13] <wols_> dinesh86: pastebin your commandline
[15:13] <sunogbaga> Chinaski1 what type of fs is it?
[15:14] <dinesh86> ubuntu@ubuntu:/media$ sudo mount /dev/hda6 /media/hda6
[15:14] <dinesh86> /dev/hda6 looks like swapspace - not mounted
[15:14] <dinesh86> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[15:14] <Chinaski1> sunobaga i did sudo fdisk -l  and i have got only sda partition of my internal hd
[15:14] <Chinaski1> *partitions
[15:15] <sunogbaga> Chinaski1 afaik sda is a usb drive
[15:15] <wols_> dinesh86: duh. why would you mount swap?
[15:15] <tupson> Hi, I cannot seem to modify my sound.... the sound icon indicates the volume is all the way down, and i even muted the sound
[15:15] <sunogbaga> Chinaski1 can u pastebin fdisk -l
[15:15] <tupson> yet sound is still loud
[15:15] <Chinaski1> ok
[15:15] <tupson> how can i fix this?
[15:15] <Chinaski1> !pastbin
[15:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pastbin - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:15] <wols_> sunogbaga: after libate pretty much all disks are using sd*
[15:16] <dinesh86> wols:wait
[15:16] <sunogbaga> wols_ i'll take a look at that
[15:16] <Chinaski1> the link for pastebin?
[15:17] <sunogbaga> Chinaski1 yes
[15:17] <wols_> sunogbaga: sdX is the old scsi subsystem of old. by now sata, usb and firewire and most IDE drivers use it too
[15:17] <wols_> !pastebin
[15:17] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[15:17] <Chinaski1> i dunno were to paste, k thanks wols_
[15:18] <RedHeron> Okay... got a slight problem: The running kernel lacks CONFIG_IDE_TASK_IOCTL support. That's a stock kernel from the Gutsy install on a AMD64, so I don't know what I need to do to get that support in there.
[15:18] <wols_> RedHeron: what for?
[15:18] <RedHeron> Blanking a locked HDD that someone gave to me so I can use it.
[15:19] <sunogbaga> wols so now how do i differentiate from ata sata usb and firewire then?
[15:19] <wols_> some IBM harddisk?
[15:19] <RedHeron> wols_: Hitachi
[15:19] <wols_> sunogbaga: you don't
[15:19] <RedHeron> DeathStar... er, I means DeskStar
[15:19] <wols_> RedHeron: ibm sold their hdd division to hitachi
[15:19] <wols_> RedHeron: boot an older kernel?
[15:20] <RedHeron> wols_: this drive says mfg was in 2003, and how do I do that without losing data?
[15:20] <wols_> oh. kernels have it. then you might have to build your own
[15:20] <RedHeron> wols_: how do I do that?
[15:20] <Lumpy^> what command i should write to apply sudoers changes?
[15:20] <wols_> install kernel-package, and check its docs in /usr/share/doc/
[15:21] <wols_> Lumpy^: an editor?
[15:21] <dinesh86> wols: success
[15:21] <Lumpy^> i did changes
[15:21] <Chinaski1> wols_,  sunogbaga  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47699/
[15:21] <Lumpy^> i need to refresh or somthing
[15:21] <dinesh86> wols:thanx !
[15:21] <Anubis_be> can anyone tell me how I can let /dev/md0 (witch is a raid 5) to automount on boot? (fstab or so?)
[15:22] <RedHeron> wols_: Apologies, never done this before... apt-get install on that?
[15:23] <Chinaski1> gordonjcp says to  try unloading and reloading the firewire module, do you know how to do it?
[15:24] <akhilesh> I had an ubuntu installation. I installed compviz for desktop effects. Now when I uninstalled it, now I don't have window frames and title bars :( Seems like no window frames. What do I do now ?
[15:25] <wols_> RedHeron: yes
[15:25] <RedHeron> wols_: tried to `cat /dev/zero > /dev/hdb` but that didn't fly because of the IDE lock.
[15:25] <RedHeron> wols_: thanks
[15:25] <juano__> akhilesh: system ---> preferences ---> appearance ---> visual effects, select NONE
[15:28] <Guest16155> what is the /tmp folder on ubuntu ? temp folder ? can i erase the files inside ?
[15:29] <MasterShrek_> Guest16155: you should be able to safely delete the files, but its not nessicary, unless you absolutely need the hard drive space
[15:29] <akhilesh> visual effects are already None.
[15:30] <akhilesh> But I still cant see the window frames. As a result, I cant move windows even when they overlap :((
[15:30] <MasterShrek_> akhilesh: alt+f2  and type: metacity --replace
[15:30] <tupson> Can anyone assist me with my sound problem?
[15:30] <Pici> Guest16155: Those files are cleaned out automatically, and files for system processes sometimes get stuck there.  You shouldnt modify or delete the contents manually.
[15:30] <Guest16155> MasterShrek_: what is the command line for delete the all /tmp including folders inside ?
[15:31] <mavi-> Guest16155: rm -rf /tmp/*
[15:31] <mavi-> but dont do that
[15:31] <MasterShrek_> Guest16155: as Pici suggested, you probably shouldnt delete those files
[15:31] <uncommon> dangerous!
[15:31] <akhilesh> infact, its behaving like failsafe.
[15:31] <akhilesh> the term gets focus if the mouse cursor hovers over it.
[15:32] <Chinaski1> seems that the only solution is to restart computer with firewire plugged sudo modprobe -r  ieee1394 gives error
[15:32] <Pici> mavi-: dont suggest it if you know its dangerous then.
[15:32] <akhilesh> how do I get my windows back ?
[15:32] <MasterShrek_> akhilesh: did you do what i said?
[15:32] <akhilesh> what did u say ? Please be a little slow, I have to switch between test screen and X.
[15:32] <mavi-> Pici: it isnt "dangerous", just "stupid" =)
[15:32] <akhilesh> I did visual effects = None.
[15:32] <MasterShrek_> akhilesh: alt+f2  and type: metacity --replace
[15:33] <akhilesh> ok, one sec... let me do that.
[15:33] <Arelis> Hey guys how do i open a .daa file in Ubuntu?
[15:33] <akhilesh> "window manager error: unable to open X display"
[15:33] <MasterShrek_> Arelis: i think you have to convert it to iso
[15:34] <Arelis> MasterShrek_: how?
[15:34] <MasterShrek_> akhilesh: you do that from your gui, ctrl+alt+f7, then alt+f2 metacity --replace
[15:34] <MasterShrek_> Arelis: one sec....
[15:34] <mavi-> Arelis: you can only do it with a windows-program iirc
[15:34] <akhilesh> ok,
[15:34] <MasterShrek_> Arelis: poweriso for linux
[15:34] <mavi-> there is a poweriso for linux now
[15:35] <mavi-> wow
[15:35] <MasterShrek_> yep
[15:35] <mavi-> i alwasy run the windows-version in wine
[15:35] <MasterShrek_> Arelis, http://www.poweriso.com/poweriso-1.1.tar.gz
[15:35] <MasterShrek_> must have left, i got join/part hidden
[15:35] <Arelis> MasterShrek_ thank you :)
[15:35] <MasterShrek_> ah
[15:35] <MasterShrek_> yep
[15:36] <askand> How can I check what processor I have? And what is the difference between i386 and i686?
[15:36] <MasterShrek_> askand: what is your processor?
[15:36] <askand> MasterShrek_: pentium M
[15:37] <genii> cat /proc/cpuinfo
[15:37] <MasterShrek_> you should be able to use i686, its just designed for faster processors, at least thats what ive gathered, but i386 will run just fine too
[15:37] <akhilesh> MasterShrek: I did that in GUI and it gave me frames. But when I logged out and again logged in, then again it was the same frameless environment.
[15:37] <akhilesh> what do I do to make it permanent ? Where should I add metacity --replace ?
[15:37] <Pici> askand: the -generic kernel will run just fine.
[15:37] <Marriedman> How do I make archive folders in Evolution?
[15:37] <MasterShrek_> akhilesh: yea i know, i just wanted to make sure that was your problem, to get them all the time go: system > preferences > sessions   and add an entry for that command ( metacity --replace )
 : in your session add it in startup
[15:38] <cocox> hi
[15:38] <MasterShrek_> hello cocox_
[15:38] <akhilesh> ok
[15:39] <Arelis> MasterShrek_: Thanks, that worked :)
[15:39] <Mannequin> thanks wols_, genii and sunogbaga, I finally move the folder to /usr/local/, then added a small script invoking python to run nicotine
[15:40] <Mannequin> and finally, created an icon on the task bar, using launcher
[15:40] <Tyczek> dunno what is wrong... now I have gl output... And after 2 minutes movie is freezing and continuing... On XV/X11 quality is very bad... ATI drivers ;/
[15:41] <bcardarella> Is there a way to redetect my keyboard layout from within X11?
[15:41] <akhilesh> MasterShrek: added that to sessions
[15:41] <akhilesh> now what ?
[15:41] <Marriedman>  I think I am using the wrong terminology  or something. I cannot figure how to archive old emails in Evolution. Can this be done?
[15:41] <MasterShrek_> akhilesh: now you shouldnt have anything to worry about, whenever you log in it should come up
[15:41] <akhilesh> nah, its not comming up :(
[15:41] <uncommon> guys any info on metacity as the compositor?
