[11:10] <soundray> f0rmat: not really. I would suspect that the fault lies with your hardware
[11:10] <Lanlost> I will back back tomorrow
[11:10] <f0rmat> yeah
[11:10] <Suthesan> Lanlost ggrr..u going...without helping me!
[11:11] <f0rmat> soundray, i thought it was my NVIDIA driver because that was first to go
[11:11] <soundray> Suthesan: try installing the nvidia driver -- System-Administration-Hardware Drivers
[11:11] <f0rmat> but i am unsure of whether to chance an upgrade
[11:11] <Suthesan> i did
[11:11] <f0rmat> whilst running a server
[11:11] <Suthesan> and when i login..its still using low resolution
[11:11] <Suthesan> !paste
[11:11] <soundray> Suthesan: change the resolution then through System-Preferences-Screen Resolution
[11:11] <zvacet>  muszek : http://nonetdebs.unixpod.com/
[11:12] <garrett__> ethan: sorted it out.  looks like one of my fan's isn't spinning, and subsequently the GPU's underclocking
[11:12] <Suthesan> soundray there was no option to select my resolution..only 1 ..ths is 800x600
[11:12] <Suthesan> Lapinux..u there? he hv my conf file ..i paste it today..forget that link
[11:14] <soundray> chris_: you have a program of the name 1, and you're trying to start it with ./program?
[11:14] <chris_> soundray: sorry, i renamed the program to 1, and i also start with 1
[11:14] <soundray> !fixres | Suthesan, have you seen these help pages?
[11:14] <eisenhower> i have a quick question. does anyone know of anyway to spread out windows equally in ubuntu? or is it not built in
[11:15] <soundray> chris_: your program must be trying to call another program that doesn't exist.
[11:15] <soundray> chris_: is it a script?
[11:16] <chris_> soundray: its a propietary program
[11:16] <chris_> soundray: when i call another program, which really doesnt exist, i get the same error message, how come?
[11:16] <soundray> chris_: it must have some dependency that you haven't installed. Try running it with 'strace ./1'
[11:16] <chris_> soundray: ok thanks a bunch
[11:17] <XLV> anyone remembers where to put geometry settings for a certain X app? i need to set nvidia-settings window size permanently, now it starts as a very small window
[11:17] <soundray> eisenhower: metacity (the default gnome window manager) doesn't have this option. Other window managers do, though.
[11:17] <XLV> iirc its Xdefaults
[11:18] <garrett__> Anyone know how to disable temperature-based/condition-based speedstepping?  i think my GPU's underclocking on account of a dead fan
[11:18] <garrett__> if i reset the temperaure sensors, i gain 500-1000fps in glxgears
[11:18] <eisenhower> soundray: tries others* thanks
[11:18] <garrett__> and my GPU's really basically cool to to the touc
[11:18] <Assid> heya
[11:19] <soundray> XLV: try starting it with the -geometry option to see if it even honors those settings. Consider using devilspie
[11:19] <Assid> is there a quick and easy way to batch convert bmps to jpegs
[11:19] <eisenhower> soundray:  do you know what command or where i need to look to make it do it?
[11:19] <ushi-lappy> Assid: convert (from image magic)
[11:19] <Assid> no gui tool?
[11:19] <Ontolog> After updating /etc/manpath.config what do I need to do for man to use the new configuration?
[11:19] <soundray> Assid: with imagemagick: 'mogrify -format jpg *.bmp'
[11:19] <ushi-lappy> Assid: or mogrify (from same)
[11:20] <soundray> eisenhower: not really, sorry
[11:20] <eyyYo> Is there any software for ubuntu that does same thing as shred (writes over with random ones and zeros), but instead of a file, it writes to all of the empty disc space? To prevent file restoring.
[11:20] <chris_> soundray: http://pastebin.org/37245, ??, another reason maybe: i am on 64bit and the program is for 32bit only? would that be possible?
[11:20] <bazhang> eyyYo, shred
[11:20] <Finnish> I ditched Avanti, and took back the gnone panel. How can I minimize windows to panel?
[11:20] <garrett__> my laptop's not overheating, but I've got a dead fan, and I think it's underclocking its self.  if I reset the sensors, I gain 500fps
[11:21] <eyyYo> bazhang, oh, i didnt know it could do that.. thank you :)
[11:21] <bazhang> :)
[11:21] <garrett__> any idea how to monitor GPU/CPU clock?
[11:21] <Chapai> how do i unload a module
[11:21] <garrett__> or how to disable the temperature step?
[11:21] <garrett__> i'm guessing it's underclocking on account of a fan's low rpm
[11:21] <Chapai> i used modprobe to load a module and i think it is messing with other, so how do i unload it.
[11:21] <void^> chris_: uh, looks like a simple case of file not found.
[11:21] <soundray> chris_: what kind of program is this? It tries to call makedev, which should be restricted to admin... I wouldn't trust it
[11:22] <chris_> soundray: x-plane.com linux demo (flight simulator) it worked in a vm machine 32bit yesterday
[11:23] <eyyYo> bazhang, sorry for bothering you, but I didnt find anything about it in 'man shred'. Do you have an example? :)
[11:23] <BobB> hi, what is the command to start the printer configuration tools in ubuntu?  I'm trying to add a network printer.  Thanks
[11:23] <XLV> soundray, good call, it doesnt seem to... nvidia does a half ass job again
[11:24] <bazhang> eyyYo, hang on a sec
[11:24] <XLV> anyone gets same behaviour from nvidia settings? starting in a small window?
[11:24] <soundray> chris_: try calling it with linux32 ./1 (you may have to install it)
[11:24] <chris_> BobB: system -> adminsitration -> printing
[11:24] <eyyYo> bazhang, will do
[11:24] <soundray> XLV: use devilspie
[11:24] <BobB> chris_, I can't access that because i'm using a different window manager
[11:25] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: what do you need to know?
[11:25] <eyyYo> gordonjcp, how to overwrite the empty disc space with random ones and zeros, to prevent file restoration.
[11:25] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: 'shred <file>' is about all there is to it ;-)
[11:26] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: create a very very big file?
[11:26] <chris_> soundray: same error message, another difference (and the only additional one) between yesterday (worked) and now is: now nvidia graphics driver installed. i hope thats not relevant
[11:26] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: shred only really overwrites files
[11:26] <soundray> chris_: why did you rename it?
[11:26] <eyyYo> gordonjcp, yeah, but I was wondering if there is any software to do it :)
[11:26] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: if you do something like "cat /dev/urandom > /somerandomfile" it will eventually fill up the disk
[11:26] <chris_> BobB: /usr/bin/system-config-printer
[11:27] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: probably
[11:27] <BobB> chris_, thanks :)
[11:27] <soundray> BobB: or have a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=310450
[11:27] <BobB> soundray, will, do.  Thanks
[11:27] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: http://www.slac.stanford.edu/comp/unix/secure-erase.html
[11:27] <BobB> ive got to set it up to print using a different user name which will be interesting to say th eleast..
[11:27] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: something like that?
[11:28] <chris_> soundray: i had problems calling it from the command line with a programname which has spaces. tab couldnt help me
[11:28] <marcosbistro> hey all you wouldnt believe it
[11:28] <marcosbistro> slackware irc are so rude !
[11:28] <soundray> chris_: you can escape spaces with \, ie. program\ name\ with\ spaces
[11:29] <eyyYo> gordonjcp, okey, ill check it out, thanks! :)
[11:29] <bazhang> http://packages.ubuntu.com/secure-delete eyyYo  perhaps more comprehensive than shred
[11:29] <chris_> soundray: ok, have it working now with original filename and +/- linux32. no luck
[11:29] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: from that page you may be looking for "scrub"
[11:30] <soundray> chris_: sorry, can't help you then
[11:30] <gordonjcp> eyyYo: incidentally scrub appears to just create a very big file, which you then remove...
[11:30] <chris_> soundray: thank you very much
[11:30]  * soundray off to the dentist
[11:30] <eyyYo> bazhang, okey, thanks :)
[11:31] <eyyYo> gordonjcp, haha :) okey

[11:36] <Ienorand> Is there any chance of flash 10 making it into 8.04.1?
[11:36] <bazhang> Ienorand, some are using it with ff3rc
[11:37] <ikonia> Ienorand: what is it about flash 10 you want
[11:39] <Swift_Fox> ok really strange thing. i can listen to pandora but when i try to play music or watch a video i cant hear anything. can someone please help me.
[11:39] <Ienorand> ikonia: Avoiding flash-crashes and being ablr to play flash and music simultaneously...
[11:39] <bazhang> Swift_Fox, simultaneously?
[11:40] <Swift_Fox> yeah
[11:40] <Swift_Fox> exactly
[11:40] <ikonia> Ienorand: are you confident those bugs are fixed in flash 10 ?
[11:40] <Ienorand> There you go, Swift-fox here has the very problem...
[11:40] <Swift_Fox> i guess your right lol
[11:40] <Swift_Fox> thanks guys
[11:40] <Ienorand> People testing the beta have said they are fixed
[11:40] <Swift_Fox> that worked all i had to do was close down that browser window with the flash
[11:40] <Swift_Fox> i hate flash so much!!!!
[11:41] <Swift_Fox> it messes up all the time!
[11:41] <bazhang> get flashblock
[11:41] <Ienorand> or noscript
[11:41] <Swift_Fox> thanks guys
[11:41] <Ienorand> Anyhow, flash messed up Hardy, big time
[11:42] <simplexio> when it dosent
[11:42] <ikonia> Ienorand: I suspect every version has issues for certain peoples set ups, eg: mine is working %100
[11:42] <simplexio> my flash worj 95% with opera
[11:42] <m1r> hello, i am having problems installing guest additions in virtualbox  on 8.04. can someone help with install ?
[11:42] <simplexio> sometimes, 5 to 10 refresh on page before flash videos work and sometimes they dont work at all
[11:42] <bazhang> m1r, what issues
[11:43] <\`slushpuppy`\> Flash on my ubuntu screws up on youtube :p.
[11:43] <simplexio> operapluginwrap[24711]: segfault at e0838b30 eip b7eb9593 esp bfca1f60 error 5
[11:43] <Ienorand> Right, then you probably have a sound card which supports multiple output without pulseaudio ikona
[11:43] <simplexio> for somereason that line takes 90% my dmesg log
[11:43] <Ienorand> * ikonia
[11:44] <ikonia> Ienorand: yes, so as I said flash hasn't messed up "ubuntu 8.04" some users are having a problem
[11:44] <m1r> bazhang: i dl guest additions .iso , but when i try to mount it , system frezze and can only use command line. even that it shows up ISO is mounted i cant access it.
[11:44] <Ienorand> Going by the amount of bug reports I'd say it's a fair amount of people...
[11:44] <simplexio> m1r: have you tryed : mount file.ido /media/some_dir -o loop
[11:45] <jenda> IS there an FTP client to try besides nautilus? With nautilus, I'm trying to upload a 35 MiB file and it always stops at 192 KiB.
[11:45] <simplexio> m1r: and it need sudo
[11:45] <Ienorand> There's at like 2-3 new dups per day...
[11:45] <m1r> simplexio: i will try now
[11:45] <simplexio> jenda: ncftp from commandline ?
[11:46] <DracoZA> Is there an application like a text reader ?
[11:46] <mrthundercleese4> anyone use deluge much?
[11:47] <Ienorand> ikonia: Anyhow, do you know if Flash 10 might make it into 8.04.1
[11:47] <web_knows> anyone around?
[11:47] <DracoZA> around the world ?
[11:47] <jonnymac> my kid brother wants to learn how to make his own website. Any ideas of an educational programme that would help him do that?
[11:47] <bazhang> DracoZA, something lighter than open office you mean?

[11:49] <ikonia> neko_: what have you done to use it
[11:49] <ikonia> neko_: have you defined the .htaccess setup in your config file /
[11:49] <ikonia> neko_: have you created the config file, and added the user / passwords

[11:50] <ikonia> neko_: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/htaccess.html
[11:50] <neko_> in the main httpd.conf it seems to be defined
[11:50] <ikonia> neko_: register globals is global isn't it ?
[11:50] <ikonia> neko_: as in it has to be on or off, not a per directory basis
[11:50] <neko_> not necessary
[11:51] <neko_> it can be set in htaccess
[11:51] <neko_> well on one other server i have it set in this way
[11:51] <ikonia> neko_: that bit I don't know, I thought it was global. Maybe the link I sent will expalin it
[11:51] <neko_> thanks
[11:51] <m1r> simplexio: it shows that my drive has mounted vbox additions, but i cant find it under /mnt or /media

[12:16] <Myrtti> m1r: it's "mount"
[12:16] <yesudeep> !terminal | ep103
[12:16] <abuyazan> hi all
[12:16] <matrix> i just would like to use one program to format and burn from
[12:17] <matrix> thanks distro
[12:17] <abuyazan> how can i join windows workgroup in ubuntu hardy
[12:17] <m1r> Myrtti: i dont find mount under synaptic
[12:17] <matrix> thanks ubunturocks
[12:17] <DistroJockey> matrix, Brasero is the default in Hardy. You're welcome.
[12:17] <ep103> yesudeep: whats '!terminal'?  I typed that and got: nvidia-xconfig can be found in the following packages, nvidia-xconfig, nvidia-xgl (if enabled), nvidia-glx-new (if enabled) try: sudo apt-get install <selected package> bash: nvidia-xconfig: command not found
[12:17] <Ziroday-laptop> !screencasts
[12:17] <matrix> ok  i will try that
[12:18] <tobylane> Ok... I can work out how to run kubuntu and xubuntu beside ubuntu, but what about stuff like ubuntustudio?
[12:18] <rayne> I tried using Firestarter to allow internet connection sharing, but it always says 'device wlan0 not ready', anyone?
[12:18] <yesudeep> ep103: You don't have nvidia-glx-new installed.
[12:18] <Ziroday-laptop> !screencast > Ziroday
[12:18] <yesudeep> ep103: That's most probably the issue.  nvidia-xconfig comes with nvidia-glx-new.
[12:19] <yesudeep> ep103: Try issuing this command:  sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx-new nvidia-settings
[12:19] <tobylane> In the way I can add kde beside gnome to make kubuntu, how can I add more different ubuntu variations like ubuntustudio?
[12:19] <ep103> yesudeep: okay, not sure what I've uninstalled in the last few minutes then.  just tried to install it, told me it couldn't be found
[12:19] <bazhang> tobylane, add their repos and install
[12:19] <tobylane> Repos?
[12:19] <DistroJockey> tobylane, sudo tasksel
[12:19] <DracoZA> tobylane, have you considered virtual machines ?
[12:20] <ep103> yesudeep: or trather 'is not available, but is referred to by another package...' do I have to update sources.list with something?
[12:20] <tobylane> DracoZA, I thought they were similar enough
[12:20] <rayne> Anyone here help me with IP forwarding, NAT/PAT?
[12:20] <db92> can anyone tell me how to disable saa7134_alsa and snd_pcm?
[12:20] <DracoZA> tobylane, for your own sanity though it may be a nicer way to explore :)
[12:20] <tobylane> The iso is massive though..
[12:20] <yesudeep> ep103: Can you paste the entire original error diagnostic message at paste site?   http://dpaste.com
[12:21] <ep103> yesudeep: nevermind, its now installing, I just misstyped.  Thanks a lot
[12:21] <tobylane> Can I install ubuntu 8 from an iso, without a cd writer?
[12:21] <tobylane> Or update from 5.10 to 8.04 with just the iso of 8.04?
[12:21] <yesudeep> ep103: Sure, when you get it installed drop us a note about whether it worked.
[12:21] <howtoo> I downloaded the amd64 iso DVD from kubuntu last night and was going to install it on my brand new computer running a intel core2 duo 3,16ghz cpu and 4gig ram.. but the installer crashed all the time.. is this a known problem?
[12:21] <ep103> yesudeep: will do, see ya'll in a few
[12:22] <tobylane> Howtoo, did you get the 64bit kubuntu?
[12:22] <avi_me> im trying to remount my filesystem but getting mount is busy , how can i force it ? -> i'm doing:  mount -n -o ro,remount /var/log
[12:22] <bazhang> !md5 | howtoo
[12:22] <howtoo> tobylane: yeah
[12:22] <howtoo> amd64
[12:22] <howtoo> should support intel too
[12:23] <CapeTown-HardyHe> Need a little help getting my LIfeCam USB CapView working in Hardy. Installed ov511 driver via Synaptic. Question: How do I enable/tell_if_it's_installed, from the Terminal (or a GUI)?
[12:23] <mohamed_> rayne: read this maybe it help you http://www.ducea.com/2006/08/01/how-to-enable-ip-forwarding-in-linux/
[12:23] <howtoo> but.. it should support >4gig right?
[12:23] <howtoo> because when I pulled out 2 gig, it went fine during install

[12:28] <Purplemess> Can someone help me with a Matlab installation? The guide says I need to look for a "default run level" in /etc/inittab, but it doesn't exist (ubuntu hardy). There are /etc/rc#.d folders though (With # running from 0 to 6). Bottom line, how do I figure out the default run level needed for the Matlab R2007b license manager?
[12:28] <CapeTown-HardyHe> I installed the ov511 driver via Synaptic. MY LifeView USB CapView showed as /dev/video0 once in Skype but then vanished. Question: DO I need to restart the driver? How do I tell if it is detecting my USB gadget?
[12:29] <ka> can someone help me with mediatomb installation ?
[12:30] <ep103> grisevg: http://linuxondesktop.blogspot.com/2007/02/13-things-to-do-immediately-after.html that mentions codecs, probably will solve your problem
[12:30] <AaronH> Cap_J_L_Picard, you can check to see if cam is detected by "lsusb" and "dmesg"
[12:30] <chris_> Purplemess: #5 should be your way to go, check http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/06/22/a-discussion-on-grub-security/ f.e.
[12:30] <AaronH> Cap_J_L_Picard, you can also use "sudo lshw"
[12:31] <matrix> howto see what bus # usb device is conected to
[12:31] <ep103> Anyone willing to help with an nvidia_new problem?  I'm on hardy heron, and have the driver enabled, but can't get it to be in-use.  just installed nvidia-glx-new nvidia-settings with results
[12:31] <AaronH> matrix, try "sudo lshw"
[12:31] <Purplemess> chris_: sweet! thanks. That's one page that's definitly going on my bookmarkes while I still qualify as a linux-n00b ^_^
[12:31] <ka> quit+
[12:31] <matrix> thanks alot love it
[12:31] <AaronH> np :)
[12:32] <rayne> I already have ip_forwarding enabled, but still no internet of the connected computer
[12:32] <ep103> or rather with "no results"
[12:32] <Assid> i think 1 u3 drive shouldbe enough
[12:32] <Assid> i dont really use the u3 features
[12:32] <Elias> 打中文不知道會不會變亂碼...

[12:34] <Vixus> Hey, I have a laptop with a widescreen monitor.. on Windows I could configure my graphics card so that fullscreen apps appeared at their native resolution in the centre of the screen rather than being stretched to fill the entire screen. Can I do this in ubuntu?
[12:34] <CapeTown-HardyHe> Anybody know how to test if my ov511 driver is installed? HOw do I activate it?
[12:34] <matrix> anyone speak danish here
[12:35] <ren0r> hi everyone. i'm using ubuntu-server. when i create a dir under /var/run/ and reboot after that, the directory is deleted. how can that happen?
[12:35] <erUSUL> !dk
[12:35] <matrix> ok thanks
[12:35] <Assid> bazhang: any idea if the procedure differs if i have a u3 drive
[12:36] <rodeno> hello
[12:36] <chris_> ren0r: you migth ask in #ubuntu-server
[12:36] <ren0r> i'll do, thanks so far.
[12:37] <rayne> I have ip forwarding enabled, ad-hoc network up and running, computer connceted to it, but the internet connection is still not being shared to the clients

[12:38] <matrix> anyone have any luck running mastercam in ubuntu and how
[12:39] <ep103> Hey ya'll.  Running Hardy Heron, and have enabled nvidia_new restricted driver, but it is not in use.  I've installed nvidia-glx-new, but am a bit over my head, as this package doesn't even show up in synatpic, and the forums I've found don't refer to envy or legacy tags.
[12:39] <microwaver> !puregnome | microwaver
[12:39] <Vixus> where are the graphics card config files stored in ubuntu?
[12:39] <Assid> DistroJockey: any clue if i can reload it in the future?
[12:39] <ep103> Vixus: I could be wrong, but I think its the xorg.conf file
[12:39] <tobylane> If I do this ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UpgradingFromGutsy ) will it be beside ubuntu, or replace gnome?
[12:39] <Vixus> ep103, do you know where that's kept?
[12:39] <tobylane> Beside gnome, or on top of ..erm
[12:39] <DistroJockey> Assid, why would you want to? ;)
[12:39] <AaronH> sam_, did you run "winecfg"
[12:40] <ep103> Vixus: I used to.  If you google it I'm sure itll pop up
[12:40] <rayne> I have ip forwarding enabled, ad-hoc network set up, computers connected to it, but the clients are not able to use the internet. Someone help?
[12:40] <AaronH> sam_, did you run "winecfg"
[12:40] <microwaver> bazhang, what was the command to ask ubotto to reset my menus?
[12:40] <ompaul> !wine | sam_
[12:40] <Assid> DistroJockey: still use a windows machine ..and its handy for the u3.. tbh
[12:40] <tobylane> Eww u3 ftl
[12:40] <CapeTown-HardyHe> Anyone know if there is a "Device Manager" in Ubuntu Hardy?
[12:40] <DistroJockey> Assid, there are better free options such as PortableApps
[12:41] <tobylane> Thats not great either
[12:41] <Vixus> ep103, I enabled the new restricted driver too but I'm not even sure if it works.. window effects are very slow..
[12:41] <Assid> portableapps?
[12:41] <DistroJockey> Assid, yeah, google it
[12:41] <tobylane> If it can be run on one of these, it can be run without it
[12:41] <Assid> yeah checking it
[12:41] <rajiv_nair> My ubuntu hardy install gets really slow when a file operation like copying or moving is being performed
[12:41] <chris_> CapeTown-HardyHe: you have more info? maybe url?
[12:41] <tobylane> A lot of programs, things like gimp and opera , can just be copied onto the usb drive
[12:41] <rajiv_nair> any idea why?
[12:41] <legend2440> Vixus: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:42] <tobylane> If I do this ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UpgradingFromGutsy ) will it be beside gnome, or replace gnome?
[12:42] <ep103> Vixus: yea, everytime I put ubuntu on a new machine, I have to play around for a while before I get them working again.  its always card/driver issues
[12:42] <yesudeep> Window effects will be slow if you don't use compizconfig-settings-manager (ccsm) to set the compiz display frequency to match that of your display.  It doesn't seem to automatically detect the right frequency and defaults to 50.
[12:42] <Vixus> legend2440, thanks
[12:42] <Assid> hrmm seems similar
[12:42] <ep103> for me
[12:42] <yesudeep> ep103: Ok.  What errors do you see now?
[12:42] <microwaver> bazhang, what was the command to ask ubotto to reset my menus?
[12:43] <ep103> yesudeep: still enabled, still not in use.  typed nvidia-xconfig --help with same results
[12:43] <legend2440> CapeTown-HardyHe: Applications>system tools>device manager or in terminal gnome-device-manager
[12:43] <rayne> I need help finishing this networking issue. computer A is trying to share a wired internet via ad-hoc from wireless. Other computers can connect to the ad-hoc, but none are able to use the internet. Help?
[12:43] <CapeTown-HardyHe> chris_ : Not sure what more info you need. I installed ov511 drivers via Synaptic but Skype only show /dev/video0 once and I don't get any info from "modprobe ov511" command... :-(
[12:44] <EuMeNiDe82459> ciao
[12:44] <ep103> yesudeep: found a forum online that said i needed to make sure that only nvidia-xlg-new was installed, and not nvidia-xlg-old or nvidia-xlg, but when I went to synaptic, I got confused by legacy vs envy
[12:44] <EuMeNiDe82459> !list
[12:44] <microwaver> !gnome
[12:44] <yesudeep> ep103: That's nvidia-GLX-new not nvidia-xlg-new.  Are you sure you have installed the right package?
[12:44] <chris_> CapeTown-HardyHe: oh skype cannot help with that, terribly sorry, dont use closed source software much
[12:45] <yesudeep> ep103: If you have a recent nvidia graphics card you don't need legacy drivers.  I haven't played with envy (yet).
[12:45] <ep103> yesudeep: sorry for the mistype.  I typed it in correctly, but all lowercase
[12:45] <microwaver> Does anyone know how to reset your gnome menubars?
[12:45] <CapeTown-HardyHe> Chris_: I installed ZoneMinder too but I though Skype would help me "test" the video capture.... I can't ghet ZoneMinder (open source) to show an image on /dev/video0
[12:45] <yesudeep> ep103: Can you pastebin the output of dpkg -L nvidia-glx-new at dpaste.com and show us the URL?  Also paste the contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf there in a new paste.
[12:46] <microwaver> does this :  gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel work to reconfigure your gnome menu's
[12:46] <Vixus> xorg.conf doesn't even have any entries for graphics card driver..
[12:46] <ep103> yesudeep: http://pastebin.com/m17323f84
[12:47] <Vixus> At least, mine doesn't.
[12:47] <mohamed_> rayne: i look at my server and find script maybe this help you
[12:47] <db92> looking for someone who has a working x-fi on ubuntu...
[12:47] <yesudeep> ep103: You see this line: "Package `nvidia-glx-new' is not installed."  It tells you the problem.
[12:47] <snadge> i cant seem to find a guide for setting up ipsec specific to ubuntu?
[12:47] <ep103> yesudeep: hold on
[12:47] <garrett__> If anyone's interested, I tracked down the my performance slowdown.  while the cpu temperature wasn't worrysome, it looks like speedstep was being overly aggressive due to a 0rpm fan.  (massively slow system, still said it was running at full clock).  cleaned out the fan and no problems now.
[12:48] <mohamed_> rayne:  you need to modify ip, network interface http://phpfi.com/318343
[12:48] <snadge> do i have to especially compile openswan to add it to the kernel?
[12:48] <rayne> mohamed_: appreciate it
[12:48] <ep103> I saw that but: http://pastebin.com/m6bdf9339
[12:48] <ep103> so what should I be installing?
[12:48] <chris_> Vixus: i am not sure hardy still uses traditional way of reading from xorg.conf files. i would digg a bit on the net how x config has changed from gutsy to hardy
[12:48] <matrix> anyone ever had pc suddenly shut down and after it wont work without unplugging power plug
[12:48] <yesudeep> ep103: Ok.  Now step by step. Follow this.  Type   `sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx-new nvidia-settings`  and pastebin the output at dpaste.com   No changes in the case.  Almost all packages in ubuntu are named in lowercase.
[12:49] <yesudeep> I used the caps in my post to emphasize the 'glx'.  Sorry about that.
[12:49] <ep103> http://pastebin.com/m4ad217b3
[12:49] <yesudeep> Also make sure you don't type the backquotes (`) surrounding the command.
[12:50] <Lr5_> Is it normal to have three compiz processes running?
[12:50] <Lr5_> umm, four
[12:51] <Lr5_> actually five
[12:51] <rayne> mohamed_: is that something I would copy and past over?
[12:51] <Vixus> i have nvidia-settings working on my setup.. it lists a version number for nvidia drivers so I guess my drivers are working properly?
[12:51] <yesudeep> ep103: Ok.  Do this now.  Click through the main menu > System > Administration > Software Sources.
[12:51] <garrett__> Lr5_: i just started playing with it today, so dunno, but I have compiz-decorator (2 instances), compiz and compiz.real in my process table
[12:52] <yesudeep> ep103: Can you check whether "Proprietary drivers for devices (restricted)" is checked?
[12:52] <Vixus> oh amazing, this has the very settings I wanted
[12:52] <yesudeep> Vixus: Nice.  :-)
[12:52] <ep103> yesudeep: its unchecked.  I've already uncommented everything in the sources.list file, never checked here.  I  take it i should check this box?
[12:53] <mohamed_> rayne: is script you can create file anyname.sh and past this script inside then chmod +x anyname.sh run this script and see if it work of course after you modify it to put your network interface inside and ip
[12:53] <Lr5_> I have compiz, compiz-decorato and four compiz.reals at the moment *wonders where the fifth one went*
[12:53] <yesudeep> ep103: Ah.  You should avoid touching the /etc/apt/sources.list file until you become a more advanced user for now.
[12:53] <yesudeep> ep103: Enable all the repositories.
[12:53] <Vixus> interestingly, apps still want to run fullscreen.. that's probably to do with my coding though.
[12:53] <acech> Hiya! I have just installed Ubuntu 8.04 and when I try to plug in a usb stick it says 'cannot mount volume'. It worked when I booted up as a live CD but not now I have actually installed it!
[12:53] <asfak> i am not so happy hardy fan. I was very happy gutsy user. Clean upgrade stopped my cisco wlan adapter. (though i was able to enable it with forum help). Can anyone help me, why windows drive automount icon on desktop disappears everytime i start pc ?. that was never a problem in gutsy.
[12:53] <Lr5_> three of the .reals use about 17% of cpu each
[12:53] <yesudeep> ep103: The problem is that the package manager cannot locate the package.  nvidia-glx-new exists in the restricted repost.
[12:54] <yesudeep> repos*
[12:54] <legend2440> Vixus: http://www.bi03.co.uk/home/blog.php?id=8
[12:54] <rayne> muhamed_: I dont see ip values anywhere in there
[12:54] <Myrtti> asfak: comment the line that mounts it in /etc/fstab
[12:54] <saltedlight> hi. anyone can give some details about some specific ways to protect files and folders on a shared system? let's say that there are 2 (or more) users and each has it's own /var/www/user_site folder, everyone of them has write access on it's own folder but not on other's. i need to know exactly how to disable read acces on other's folders and stil those folders to be available on web.
[12:55] <Vixus> legend2440, my monitor works fine, I was just wondering if I could change how fullscreen applications were displayed at various resolutions.
[12:55] <mohamed_> rayne:  there is EXTIF="eth0 and INTIF="eth1" also EXTIP=
[12:55] <garrett__> Lr5_: huh.  i've only got a 1.8GHz p4m, and it's sitting at about 1.3% with a 31M memory footprint
[12:55] <rayne> muhamed_: what is EXTIP= ?
[12:56] <legend2440> Vixus: oh ok misread your problem
[12:56] <ep103> yesudeep: okay, repasted the installation code you gave me.  Its uninstalling some legacy files that were apparently on there, and installing nvidia-glx-new
[12:56] <garrett__> rayne: external ip
[12:56] <Lr5_> garrett__: I have a core 2, 2.13 ghz both
[12:56] <AaronH> saltedlight, you just have to use the "chmod" command
[12:56] <yesudeep> ep103: Looks good.  Once it's done, can you pastebin the output too?
[12:56] <Lr5_> and I don't think they should do that
[12:56] <iclebyte> saltedlight, your probabbly going to need to make each specific user the owner of their directory and then make the directory a member of the www-data group and set read access on that and write only access for the user. but as AaronH just said google "chmod"
[12:56] <garrett__> Lr5_: could it be that it's showing up twice in your process table because it's spread across both cores?
[12:56] <Lr5_> What happens if you kill a compiz process?
[12:56] <mohamed_> rayne:  this is the ip that connect to internet ( external ip  )
[12:56] <Lr5_> garrett__: it shows as 4-5
[12:56] <ep103> yesudeep: to which command?  the installation?
[12:56] <maek> !xfce
[12:56] <yesudeep> Lr5_: You lose the window management functionality.  You can resume it by issuing 'compiz --replace'
[12:56] <rayne> muahmed_/garrett_: so that would be whatever the IP is the hardline uses to hit internet right?
[12:57] <yesudeep> ep103: Yes.
[12:57] <garrett__> Lr5_: i don't have a dual core box, but i remember about 8years ago there was some serious goofyness with process reporting on SMP machines.
[12:57] <AaronH> saltedlight, if you would like more detail I will try to explain better on a PM
[12:57] <garrett__> Lr5_: i'm guessing that's been fixed up, but im' not too familiar with it.
[12:57] <mohamed_> rayne: you have two network card one connect to internet other to the internal network
[12:57] <Lr5_> now it's seven compiz.reals, strange
[12:57] <garrett__> Lr5_: is it running slow?  or are you just making sure that it's not doing something silly?
[12:57] <garrett__> Lr5_: powered by rabits!
[12:57] <rayne> mohamed_: gotcha, sorry. Drifting off into sleep
[12:58] <rayne> mohamed_: was loosing concentration
[12:58] <Lr5_> garrett__: other programs are running a bit slow
[12:58] <ep103> yesudeep: http://pastebin.com/m1eeb1d55
[12:58] <garrett__> Lr5_: huh
[12:59] <yesudeep> ep103: Nice.  Now enable the drivers in the "restricted drivers manager" and reboot.  :-)
[12:59] <yesudeep> ep103: And as usual, leave us a note. :-)
[12:59] <garrett__> Lr5_: are you using gnome?  if so, try disabling it and see if you get you performance back
[12:59] <garrett__> Lr5_: dunno what'll happen if you killall -9
[12:59] <Lr5_> I tried disabling the desktop effects, had no effect
[12:59] <ep103> yesudeep: thanks again for putting up with the all-nighter stupidity. see ya in a few
[12:59] <yesudeep> ep103: np.
[12:59] <garrett__> Lr5_: huh.  that probably shouldn't happen
[12:59] <ncomp> hello, where to get the ncomputing software for ubuntu?
[13:00] <rayne> mohamed_: okay, modified and ran the script
[13:00] <rayne> mohamed_: do I need to restart the internet connection?
[13:01] <matrix> anyone ever been able to use mastercam cadcam software in ubuntu
[13:01] <mohamed_> rayne: no just test your internal network
[13:01] <mohamed_> rayne: first be sure that ip of the network working well
[13:02] <rayne> mohamed_: how would I do that?
[13:02] <ep103> yesudeep: It worked, I'm good to go.  Thanks again!
[13:02] <yesudeep> ep103: Did that work?
[13:02] <skype> slt
[13:02] <yesudeep> ep103: Sure, good luck.
[13:02] <mohamed_> rayne:  you can ping server from any pc or oppisite
[13:02] <f0rmat> hi i was just wondering whether anyone could tell me how to enable a USB flash drive to be writable it says permission denied and doesn't even allow root
[13:02] <Ta3v> Hey whats the difference between "GNOME" and "GNOME Failsafe" Failsafe GNOME works fine, however, when I try to log in to GNOME it plays the login sound, starts to show the taskbars then it goes all white
[13:02] <Ta3v> and i have no input at all. I have to ctrl alt backspace
[13:03] <mohamed_> rayne:  you use dhcp server  ?
[13:03] <rayne> mohamed_: how do i specify to ping using wlan0 and not eth0?
[13:03] <garrett__> rayne: it depends on your default route and the routing tables for the interface.
[13:03] <garrett__> rayne: less you have some loadbalancing setup
[13:03] <whileimhere> This may seem like a dumb question but would a program compile faster in a lighter desktop. At least one that is lighter than GNOME?
[13:04] <rayne> mohamed_: I think i do use a dhcp... i think i set one up when I was trying to set this up the other day
[13:04] <chris_> whileimhere: yes
[13:04] <Ta3v> nobody has any idea why GNOME Failsafe would start fine and GNOME doesn't ?
[13:04] <garrett__> wileim: yup
[13:04] <rayne> garrett_: I try to ping and i get 'Destination Host Unreachable'
[13:05] <chris_> whileimhere: you can start the compile run from alt-ctrl+F1 f.e.: no window manager at all
[13:05] <garrett__> whileimhere: I'm using about 18% on just my windowmanager.  so that 18% would otherwise be given to gcc
[13:05] <whileimhere> That is what I was wondering.
[13:05] <garrett__> rayne: then you've got a routing problem
[13:05] <rayne> mohamed_: the computer connected on the internal network does have an ip assigned to it and such
[13:05] <whileimhere> Not that I compile much software.
[13:05] <sandra> Hi, you guys, I have a problem. When my computer boots, it gives me alot of errors saying that "root is read only filesystem"
[13:05] <whileimhere> I need to learn how to create deb files for distrobution now.
[13:05] <garrett__> whileimhere: you can renice gcc so that it'll grab a lions share of your scheduler's allocated cycles, though
[13:06] <ncomp> sandra: maybe your filesystem is broken or your harddisk is damaged
[13:06] <rayne> garrett_: I was wondering if it could be because of using eth0 (external) and wlan0 (interal)
[13:06] <whileimhere> garrett__ how?
[13:06] <Ta3v> Ok I'll try a 2nd question. I bought a USB data cable for my cell phone, yet I can't get Ubuntu to detect it. All the programs say as a default it should be /dev/mobile but theres nothing there.
[13:06] <ncomp> run fsck to check your filesystem
[13:06] <SnakeArt> Hi! I'm using ubuntu 7.10 (amd64). Update-manager notifies me about available updates. I'm satisfied with my current system, but I would like to have it up-to-date. If I make the suggested updates my actual settings will be overwritten? In other words, do I need to reconfigure anything after installation of updated packages?
[13:06] <matrix> just use alien
[13:06] <Ta3v> Ubuntu isn't detecting it.
[13:06] <garrett__> whileimhere: "nice" sets the priority of a procecss with regard to the kernel scheduler
[13:06] <Lr5_> killed three compiz.reals, processor usage dropped to 75%
[13:06] <sandra> ncomp, is there a way to make root read-write... and not just read only?
[13:06] <garrett__> whileimhere: if a process has a higher priority, it gets more processor cycles.
[13:06] <matrix> whileimhere use alien
[13:06] <ncomp> sandra: true
[13:07] <ncomp> sandra: but thats not the error itself
[13:07] <ncomp> sandra: you need to know why it is read only
[13:07] <SFauconnier> SnakeArt, nah, all your settings will stay the way they are
[13:07] <sandra> It says, mounted root (ext2 filesystem) read-only
[13:07] <garrett__> rayne: possibly
[13:07] <whileimhere> garrett__ I understand what nice is and does I mean how to I make it set for gcc?
[13:07] <ncomp> it often happends when something goes wrong with your filesystem
[13:07] <garrett__> rayne: my guess is your routing tables are a bit mucked.
[13:07] <chris_> matrix: advising alien generally is not a good idea
[13:07] <whileimhere> Martrix: Alien is for converting rpm to deb isnt it?
[13:08] <ncomp> sandra: are there more errors?
[13:08] <garrett__> whileimhere: nice -n priority make?
[13:08] <Lr5_> oops, killed the one that was handling the windows, apparently it didn't do anything else than switch to the other window manager thing
[13:08] <sandra> ncomp, Is there some way to make /dev/hda1 read and write? or root read and write?
[13:08] <matrix> sorry if im wrong why chris
[13:08] <SnakeArt> SFauconnier: Tnx. It makes me feel more comfortable:)
[13:08] <ncomp> sandra: root means /
[13:08] <ncomp> your root fs
[13:08] <matrix> alien does the job
[13:08] <Lr5_> and processor usage is down to 55%, looks better
[13:08] <jatt> there is nothing wrong with alien
[13:08] <whileimhere> garrett__ thanks I will try it next time I am doing this. Its already 40% done
[13:08] <garrett__> whileimhere: nice -n -20 gcc foo.c -o foo, for example, would set that process as the highest priority
[13:08] <ncomp> mount -o rw /
[13:09] <sandra> Almost every file after it tries to mount... gives me an error that,, can not do ___ root is read only.
[13:09] <chris_> matrix: its a tweaky conversion tool. it exists for ages now, but its more of a nono tool. users should use deps/rpms designed for their distro after all
[13:09] <garrett__> whileimhere: or if you have some computers sitting about, you can setup something like distcc and just build yourself a compile farm
[13:09] <ncomp> sandra: you need to type sudo before
[13:09] <Lr5_> re-enabled compiz, no cpu % effect, so I guess I fixed the problem
[13:09] <matrix> ok thanks for the advice chris
[13:09] <h0ax> how would i mount /dev/sda4 to /mnt/lfs
[13:09] <garrett__> Lr5_: something probably got bjorked up
[13:09] <whileimhere> Another off-topic question (but I never get responses in ubuntu-offtopic) so here it goes. I would like a lighter web browser. Is there one out there for linux?
[13:09] <sandra> ncomp, How can I make /dev/hda1 read write?
[13:10] <garrett__> whileimhere: opera's pretty light weight
[13:10] <ncomp> sudo mount -o rw /dev/hda1 /
[13:10] <h0ax> whileimhere: epiphany ?
[13:10] <Lr5_> garrett__: could be related to testing how firefox crashes the x server when visiting certain pages
[13:10] <sandra> ncomp, Will it stay that way when I try to boot it next time?
[13:10] <Arleas> hello!
[13:10] <whileimhere> garrett__ I hd considered Opera. Isnt that closed source?
[13:11] <zaputr> my pc speaker doesn't work ob beep command... how can i test it or turn on?
[13:11] <ncomp> sandra: if it should stay then you need to do an entry in your /etc/fstab
[13:11] <chris_> whileimhere: y
[13:11] <garrett__> whileimhere: yeah, it is.
[13:11] <Arleas> can someone tell me how i can edit my xorg.conf? it says i cannot write to the file....
[13:11] <h0ax> zuperz: alsa-conf ?
[13:11] <matrix> make sure you use sudo arleas
[13:11] <sandra> It needs to stay, it basically told me to add... it at boot
[13:11] <ncomp> sandra: first try sudo mount -no remount,rw /
[13:11] <fdsss> you need root priveleges
[13:11] <whileimhere> I was thinking of switching over to Lynx for my day to day things.
[13:11] <Arleas> i used sudo
[13:12] <elmakin> hola
[13:12] <fdsss> privileges
[13:12] <fdsss> for real dwag
[13:12] <Arleas> but when i did that, it opened a blank file
[13:12] <fdsss> the ghetto is hard
[13:12] <sandra> ncomp, It says to add it to start up with lilo
[13:12] <fdsss> I know dwag
[13:12] <Arleas> so i found xorf.conf and opened it, but nothing would save
[13:12] <matrix> and it wont let you edit
[13:12] <garrett__> whileimhere: or k-melon or firefox wonder edition
[13:12] <Arleas> i'm the only user
[13:12] <fdsss> the ghetto is hard
[13:12] <garrett__> whileimhere: i haven't tried either of those, though
[13:12] <ghis> What is the easiest way to upgrade firefox to RC1?
[13:12] <legend2440> Arleas: gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:12] <chris_> whileimhere: i use firefox having pics disabled if that would give you an addiotional idea..
[13:12] <Pici> ghis: Wait until you receive the official update from Ubuntu.
[13:12] <legend2440> Arleas: gksudo gedit  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:12] <whileimhere> chris_ That is an interesting idea.
[13:12] <maek> ghis, wait till its on the repos
[13:13] <Pici> !ff3rc | ghis
[13:13] <sandra> ncomp, it said at start up that I need to add... mount root=/dev/hda1 rw ??  Where would I add that to?
[13:13] <fdsss> for real dwag
[13:13] <ncomp> sandra: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html
[13:13] <Sladjannn> what is the name od kde room?
[13:13] <Pici> !ff3rc =~ s/team is/team are/
[13:13] <fdsss> respect ali g
[13:13] <sandra> ncomp, Do I add it to the fstab?
[13:13] <Sladjannn> what is the name of kde4 room
[13:14] <Pici> Sladjannn: #kubuntu-kde4
[13:14] <ghis> Okay guys, the next easiest way? This beta 3 sucks... doest not work well with flash at all....
[13:14] <ncomp> sandra: true
[13:14] <Arleas> ok i did that, i entered my password, but nothing happened
[13:14] <zaputr> not standart speakers for music, but beeper, i think that it isn't need any drivers
[13:14] <maek> Im going to wait till all my extensions are compatible with FF3 before upgrading
[13:14] <legend2440> Sladjannn: #kubuntu-kde4
[13:14] <sandra> ncomp, can you tell me where to put "mount root=/dev/hda1 rw?
[13:14] <Arleas> im using xubuntu on an eee pc
[13:14] <garrett__> ghis: delete the firefox3 package, download the tarball, toss it in /usr/local or something and symlink /usr/bin/firefox to /usr/local/firefox/firefox?
[13:15] <sandra> ncomp, It also said that I could use "loadlin vmlinuz root=/dev/hda1 rw
[13:15] <ghis> garrett__: thanks
[13:15] <garrett__> ghis: then rm -rf it when an ubuntu package comes out
[13:15] <ghis> garrett__: yeah sounds like a good idea
[13:15] <garrett__> ghis: make a backup of your .mozilla dir just on the offchance something stupid happens, though
[13:16] <fdsss> I know that kcontrol is no more in kde4 but how do you get system settings to look the old way like this http://www.tuxmachines.org/images/ultimalive/kcontrol.jpg
[13:16] <garrett__> ghis: i think i'm going to do that, too, actually ;P  the 8.04 build is sort of slow.
[13:16] <garrett__> ghis: scrolling through a page is sort of jerky.
[13:16] <ghis> garrett__: i can't stand it
[13:16] <ncomp> sandra: you need booth
[13:16] <m1r> what is package name that take care of mounting/unmounting .iso images ?
[13:16] <garrett__> ghis: i thought it was just me
[13:16] <legend2440> Arleas: how about sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:16] <garrett__> m1r: mount -o loop?
[13:16] <sandra> ncomp, How do I do that?
[13:17] <ncomp> sandra: you first do it in the lilo config file
[13:17] <sandra> I do "nano /etc/fstab and then add what line?
[13:17] <fdsss> mlr: mount umount
[13:17] <ncomp> to point it where the root fs is
[13:17] <esi1> HELLO
[13:17] <esi1> FUCK FUCK
[13:17] <esi1> GO GO
[13:17] <m1r> garrett__: i installed minimal ubuntu and it seems i dont have mount package, i tried with afuse and autofs i think but both not working
[13:17] <chris_> esi1: shut up or you will be kicked
[13:17] <jatt> he is already gone
[13:17] <sandra> So, "nano lilo.conf?" and add what line? ncomp
[13:17] <garrett__> m1r: whoa. no mount?
[13:18] <m1r> garrett__: yes, no mount
[13:18] <Arleas> is there any way i can get mousepad to open my xorg.conf with the priveledges to change it?
[13:18] <fdsss> install mount
[13:18] <m1r> fdsss: what is name of that package ?
[13:18] <garrett__> m1r: do you have a network connection?  can you just lookup what package provides mount?
[13:18] <maek> your mousepad ??
[13:18] <matrix> anyone use mastercam with ubuntu
[13:18] <m1r> garrett__: on synaptic it drops all but "mount"
[13:19] <Pici> Arleas: gksudo mousepad
[13:19] <Arleas> it's a text edit application shipped with xubuntu i think....
[13:19] <sandra> ncomp, I can edit the lilo.conf but what line do I add to it?
[13:19] <DracoZA> I have been having trouble with windows shares, I have installed smbfs and can browse a network and see all the machines but the folders I open are always displayed empty, any ideas ?
[13:19] <Arleas> gksudo mousepad?
[13:19] <Arleas> thanks
[13:19] <Arleas> what does the gk part mean>
[13:19] <Arleas> ?
[13:19] <garrett__> huh.  does apt have a function to inform which package provides a particular binary?
[13:19] <sandra> ncomp,  I just use "nano /etc/lilo.conf"
[13:19] <fdsss> I have no idea mount should be in the default install because then you will not be able to open any removable media
[13:19] <maek> I should try out xubuntu ....
[13:19] <m1r> garrett__, fdsss , i instaled autofs and afuse, but seems they not what is needed
[13:19] <ncomp> sandra: its better to look at google i cant paste all this stuff here
[13:20] <jatt> garrett__: dpkg -S
[13:20] <m1r> fdsss: minimal install , cli , then gui
[13:20] <sandra> I dont know what to look up
[13:20] <maek> does xubuntu come with a Live CD ??
[13:20] <koshari> Arleas the gk part means its a sudo prompt in an applet
[13:20] <Arleas> there is one that i downloaded for my EEE PC
[13:20] <sandra> ncomp, I already tried google and I dont know what to look up.
[13:20] <koshari> maek yes
[13:20] <garrett__> m1r: according to dpkg -S (thanks jatt), the "mount" package provides mount
[13:20] <Arleas> you can put the installer onto a USB stick to
[13:20] <garrett__> m1r: apt-get install mount?
[13:21] <Arleas> thanks kosh
[13:21] <CapeTown-HardyHe> ANYONE: I have downloaded the XAWTX program and I have got a picture (in XAWTV) signal but in ZoneMinder the picture window just has a little grey square at the top left hand corner with a red dot in it. Reminds me of an image that won't display in a web browser.... Any ideas, anyone?
[13:21] <Arleas> i'm trying it now...
[13:21] <ncomp> sandra: look for the fstab
[13:21] <sandra> ncomp, That is why I came in here. I know how to get to fstab and lilo.conf I just dont know what to enter to make it READ WRITE.
[13:21] <m1r> garrett__: does "mount" package exist ?
[13:21] <u-4b> hola
[13:21] <ncomp> and for lilo.conf
[13:21] <maek> sweet is the xfce desktop as polished as GNOME ??
[13:21] <u-4b> yes
[13:21] <Arleas> ok cool it worked!
[13:21]  * N3bunel saluta
[13:21] <sandra> ncomp, since it seems it only wants to be able to also read and write to the disk, and it is marked as readonly for some reason
[13:21] <Arleas> so gksudo gives permissions that sudo does not?
[13:22] <Arleas> sorry, im completely new to linux
[13:22] <koshari> maek i dont think so, i personnaly prefer fluxbox for a minimalistic desktop
[13:22] <m1r> garrett__: it says i have it already
[13:22] <Pici> !gksudo | Arleas this explains it better than I can
[13:22] <maek> gksudo means that you can open a GUI application as root
[13:22] <u-4b> eo sandra ¿hablas sapanish?
[13:22] <sandra> no
[13:22] <u-4b> spanish?
[13:22] <garrett__> m1r: cd / ; find | grep mount | grep bin
[13:22] <jatt> Qes
[13:22] <fdsss> kdesu
[13:22] <jatt> !es
[13:22] <garrett__> m1r: maybe it's just not in your path?
[13:22] <u-4b> entoces why as entendido?
[13:23] <koshari> Arleas gksudo gives the gams prompt as sudo does however it will do it in an applet rather than a text command prompt
[13:23] <Arleas> ok cool, i just followed an online guide... it said use 'sudo mousepad /etc/X11 ... etc'
[13:23] <fdsss> I know that kcontrol is no more in kde4 but how do you get system settings to look the old way like this http://www.tuxmachines.org/images/ultimalive/kcontrol.jpg
[13:23] <u-4b> ahh¡¡¡¡ k me echas ¡¡¡ Vale,vale
[13:23] <Arleas> i'll use gksudo from now on
[13:23] <Arleas> that might be why i couldn't edit the file
[13:23] <CapeTown-HardyHe> Anyone know if there is a #ZOneMinder channel and how I change to it using Pidgin?
[13:23] <fdsss> vi estas bela
[13:23] <u-4b> by,by
[13:23] <m1r> garrett__: /bin/mount ; /bin/umount
[13:23] <jatt> !es
[13:23] <fdsss> mi estas puna
[13:24] <Arleas> i also can't add files into certain folders, probably for permissions again
[13:24] <Arleas> any way around this?
[13:24] <garrett__> m1r: then you have mount
[13:24] <maek> a question about XFCE .... can I install it on top of my GNOME desktop in Gusty without it messing up my GNOME desktop ??
[13:24] <garrett__> m1r: try /bin/mount -o loop /bla/foo.so /mnt/mountpoint
[13:24] <m1r> garrett__: yes it seems so, but is not working with nautilus
[13:24] <mr_boo> after i've installed hardy i can't use the samba filesystem
[13:24] <koshari> Arleas you can change the destination folders permissions
[13:24] <fdsss> mi estas seka
[13:24] <Arleas> how do i do that koshari?
[13:24] <Arleas> thanks for the help!
[13:24] <garrett__> m1r: ah.  dunno.  i've never used nautilus
[13:25] <mr_boo> i could mount network ntfs drives on 7.10
[13:25] <koshari> maek you can install xfce as a different session option,
[13:25] <garrett__> m1r: i was running fvwm2 and then blackbox for years :P  i just decided to install ubuntu the other day
[13:25] <sandra> So somehow my filesystem is READ only.... How can I fix that?
[13:25] <m1r> garrett__: :D
[13:25] <maek> oh okay koshari ... and what does a different session option mean ??
[13:25] <fdsss> linus thinks that gnome is for idiots
[13:25] <koshari> Arleas if you are the owner of the folder its in the properties accesable via nautilus or you can use chmod cmand
[13:26] <Pici> fdsss: Thats not appropriate.
[13:26] <pwang> hi, just have a question. when you enable and install proposed updates, is it only for expert users? will you get broken software/dependencies?
[13:26] <frojnd> Tell me leightweight picture viewer ?
[13:26] <tyler> help for lirc with SMK receiver and Media Center Edition remote?
[13:26] <Arleas> thanks koshari, you've been great
[13:26] <ramukmar> pwang: no...never happened to me at least
[13:26] <jatt> I use gnome and ain't an idiot.
[13:26] <Arleas> have a brew on me!
[13:26] <fdsss> here is the proof https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/desktop_architects/2005-December/000390.html
[13:26] <Pici> !ot | fdsss
[13:26] <koshari> maek on the login screen the options selection will give you xfce as an extra option, or fluxbox, or kde depending on the additional desktop(s) you install
[13:26] <cgentry72> could someone guide me on how to install a printer installed on a windows machine?
[13:27] <joe-351> If I "login" as root using "sudo su" at the command line, then when I run my VLC Media Player, I noticed there are two instances (processes) of VLC in memory--one as root and the other as my username. If I start vlc normally under my username, I only get one process under my username as expected. What am I missing here? Why does VLC do that?
[13:27] <whileimhere> Is there a beginners tutorial on how to make a deb file for distrobution?
[13:27] <Pici> !newpackage | whileimhere
[13:27] <maek> oh thankyou very much koshari ... and the desktops wont interfere with each other ??
[13:27] <m1r> joe-351: i am not sure if i am right, but u shouldnt run program as vlc as root
[13:27] <frojnd> lol kde, xfce, whatever use what u like. I use KDE on suse, fluxbox with I don't know what environment on server, xfce at home,... that's really not an issue what's an idiotic and what not. I use em all and I love em all...
[13:28] <pwang> okay then. are proposed updates released every day? and are they a bit buggy still? will they conflict with other updates, ramukmar?
[13:28] <frojnd> Can someone tell me lightweight picture viewer with gnome libraries ?
[13:28] <koshari> maek no you can only have one session open at a time, however remeber that you will have a lot more packages to update.

[13:28] <tyler> help with lirc and ubuntu 8.04?
[13:29] <joe-351> m1r: Yes, I know that :) but I'm trying to understand how I can be logged in as root, run the program, and yet the program still runs with an instance under my username.
[13:29] <maek> ah okay .... thanks for that koshari
[13:29] <ramukmar> pwang: you're talking about the updates in the update manager right? no, not everyday, but there isn't an update cycle or anything of that sort as far as I know
[13:29] <whileimhere> Thanks guys.
[13:29] <koshari> maek in fact you dont even need a window manager to envoke a session, i have a jukebox that boots a session with just x
[13:29] <maek> frojnd, gThumb is the best picture organiser for GNOME
[13:29] <ramukmar> pwang: and no, they don't conflict with other updates...apt-get is nice ;)
[13:30] <garrett__> hm.  scrolling a page is still really choppy compared to the win32 build
[13:30] <garrett__> (in firefox)
[13:30] <pwang> okay, thx alot, ramukar. i am off to install my proposed updates. :)
[13:30] <ramukmar> pwang: i can only talk about my experience though, never had any problems with updates here
[13:30] <tyler> i use ubuntu server for my 'stereo', it doesnt have a gui :)
[13:30] <cgentry72> could someone guide me on how to install a printer installed on a windows machine?
[13:30] <maek> lol koshari .... that is very cool
[13:30] <ramukmar> pwang: great, it'll work fine i'm sure
[13:31] <koshari> maek it makes our jukebox boot a lot quicker and more like a kiosk environment
[13:32] <koshari> cgentry72 you will simply install the software for the printer and point it to the windows box addy
[13:33] <cgentry72> koshari: how do i install the software when its installed on a windows machine
[13:33] <maek> koshari, that must be very handy for when friends come around and you don't want them to stuff up your desktop

[13:36] <tyler> i'm trying to install an SMK IR receiver with the Media Center Edition remote, the mythTV guide says to use LIRC, but in the guide (http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/MCE_Remote#Ubuntu_6.10_Edgy.2C_7.04_Feisty.2C_7.10_Gutsy), when i hit "sudo make" in the lirc folder in /usr/src, it errors with "include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing"
[13:36] <bogey-> mr_boo: excellent then :)
[13:37] <Odd-rationale> _Hypnos: you are dealing with encrypted partitions?
[13:37] <mr_boo> bogey-: do you have any idea why that approach doesn't work since hardy?
[13:37] <_Hypnos> Odd-rationale: not that i would remember having this setup
[13:37] <mateusz> Hi

[13:37] <bogey-> mateusz: no
[13:37] <garrett__> mateusz: i just installed it yesterday.
[13:37] <mateusz> it does not install and I get shash read write error

[13:38] <koshari> zackyramone nvidia card?
[13:38] <Odd-rationale> _Hypnos: try "sudo fdisk -l" to see all partitions /dev name...
[13:38] <cgentry72> could someone guide me on how to install a printer installed on a windows machine?
[13:38] <bogey-> mateusz: your cd needs reburned at a slower speed or just burn a new one
[13:38] <mateusz> bogey-: I did
[13:38] <mateusz> bogey-: I even launched it from qemu
[13:38] <bogey-> mateusz: then your iso file is damaged
[13:38] <mateusz> bogey-: and the same
[13:39] <mateusz> bogey-: I tried two mirrors
[13:39] <zackyramone> koshari: yes gefroce 4
[13:39] <bogey-> mateusz: go to ftp://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/pub/linux/ubuntu-releases/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso

[13:39] <tyler> anyone for LIRC help?
[13:39] <jim_beam> is there a way to setup desktop files so they are not sharded by kde and gnome
[13:39] <bogey-> mateusz: i burned that one yesterday
[13:39] <_Hypnos> Odd-rationale: but that only gives me the "normal" partition names, not where the /dev/mapper/somepa
[13:39] <_Hypnos> points to
[13:40] <koshari> there is often a line you need to add for nvid cards to xorg.conf, something like rgb visuals true,
[13:40] <mateusz> bogey-: thanks
[13:40] <cgentry72> in windows i have a path for the printer but dont know how to set it up in ubuntu
[13:40] <zackyramone> koshari: thanks
[13:40] <XLV> mateusz, download this ftp://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/pub/linux/ubuntu-releases/8.04/MD5SUMS then get an md5 sum program to check the iso you have downloaded.. eg hashcalc
[13:40] <koshari> zackyramone what version of ubuntu
[13:40] <AdvoWork> how do i find the physical memory in ubuntu?
[13:41] <zackyramone> koshari: 8.04
[13:41] <XLV> mateusz, compare the md5 hash the program generates against the one that is certainly the right one in the MD5SUMS text file
[13:41] <sipior> AdvoWork: "free" will tell you
[13:41] <mateusz> XLV: no such file
[13:41] <koshari> zackyramone that might not be the case in 8.04 as it automaticly does xorg...
[13:41] <mateusz> XLV: oh too many connections:P
[13:41] <Odd-rationale> _Hypnos: you are trying to find the real device name of a device listed in /dev/mapper ?
[13:42] <XLV> mateusz, remember its linux text, so if you are in windows, use wordpad to open MD5SUMS file, to get LF+CR correctly displayed
[13:42] <koshari> zackyramone which window manager are you using, emerald?
[13:42] <_Hypnos> Odd-rationale: exactly
[13:42] <zackyramone> koshari: i dont know.. u just installed the nvidia official driver and the effects were on

[13:47] <banyan> hmm... so, I run mythtv... do I just have to retain the filesystem with /var on it and it's good to go again under ubuntu?  that's the main thing I want to preserve.
[13:47] <zackyramone> koshari: ok everything is back to normal
[13:47] <Ace_NoOne> astro76: any catch? or does it Just Work since upgrading?
[13:47] <koshari> zackyramone you may want to see if the nvidia binarys are installed properly by running glxgears
[13:47] <astro76> Ace_NoOne: upgrade on my T61 went fine
[13:48] <zackyramone> koshari: glxgears runs perfectly
[13:48] <koshari> zackyramone nice

[13:48] <aurax> so does anyone knows how to override license agreement when installing deb packages with apt-get (like sun-java6-jdk and postgresql-8.3)?
[13:49] <astro76> Ace_NoOne: it probably was
[13:49] <Ace_NoOne> astro76: yeah, will do - now I have a reason to upgrade ;)
[13:49] <koshari> zackyramone now you just need to get skydome and scale setup :-)
[13:49] <sipior> aurax: override in what way? so they'll install without you agreeing to the licence?
[13:49] <Odd-rationale> _Hypnos: well, i tried to look it up, but i don't remember... try reading the man pages for crypsetup...

[13:57] <Assid> hrmm
[13:57] <Assid> this documentation is flawed
[13:57] <Assid> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[13:57] <Assid> first it says to do something
[13:57] <Assid> thenb it says dont
[13:57] <manifest> where could i find synaptic?
[13:57] <banyan> actually, the nvidia binaries are exactly why I'm pissed off with fedora.  they have apparently started using some quite new (bleeding-edge?) x server, that the nvidia code hasn't caught up with, but they released it anyway.
[13:57] <fdsss> apt-get install synaptic
[13:57] <astro76> axisys: there was server only, I think it was dropped, at least officially
[13:57] <Assid> "Follow the instructions, but use /dev/sdx2 instead of /dev/sdx1, and make sure you make /dev/sdx2 bootable in fdisk."
[13:58] <Assid> why cant the damn thing be a bit more specific
[13:58] <alecs> sipior : can you be more explicit ?
[13:58] <axisys> astro76: :-( that sucks.. i wanted to install it on a sun netra
[13:58] <astro76> axisys: yeah, there's debian ;)

[13:59] <manifest> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13485/
[13:59] <axisys> astro76: oh ok.. i guess i could use that then.. do you happend to know any of the other popular distro run on sparc?
[13:59] <axisys> astro76: like fedora/centos, mandriva .. etc.
[13:59] <astro76> axisys: not off-hand, debian has the most platform support
[13:59] <axisys> astro76: or opensuse
[13:59] <fdsss> use rpms

[14:00] <mateusz> XLV: LoL the previous file I download has the same md5sum
[14:00] <mateusz> XLV: the one I burned
[14:00] <mateusz> XLV: and md5sum is fine
[14:00] <banyan> there may be the same issue with nvidia drivers and ubuntu for all I know.
[14:00] <mateusz> XLV: but I burned it twice and tried from qemu and was broken
[14:00] <tyler> can anyone help with LIRC? the lirc channel is dead
[14:01] <mateusz> bogey-: hmm this one has the same m5sum as the one I burned
[14:01] <unr3a1> hey all
[14:01] <mateusz> bogey-: maybe its broken for polish language
[14:02] <bogey-> mateusz: you may have to realize that your cd burner is bad :( because i promise you i burned that exact cd yesterday and put it on three computers
[14:02] <sipior> alecs: what sort of statistics for each window?
[14:02] <unr3a1> I installed Ubuntu 8.04 and I am having problems with networking.  it is saying that the eth0 device does not exist.  but when I load the LiveCD, I am able to see the device.
[14:02] <|StOnE|> good morning
[14:02] <|StOnE|> ppl
[14:02] <bogey-> Morning to you
[14:02] <XLV> mateusz, qemu -cdrom [[cdrom''image]] -boot d [[hd''image]] should mount the iso in loopback device, so you dont have to burn it to test it in qemu
[14:02] <mateusz> bogey-: I tested it in qemu
[14:03] <sipior> unr3a1: ubuntu numbers ethernet devices in a retarded way, on occasion. do you have multiple network interfaces by any chance?
[14:03] <mateusz> XLV: this one works
[14:03] <mateusz> XLV: in qemu
[14:03] <mateusz> XLV: I'll try bad one
[14:03] <bazhang> unr3a1, what changes have you made in the install vs the live cd
[14:03] <unr3a1> sipior, I have only one ethernet card.  i have a wireless card, but that does't even show up with lspci
[14:03] <unr3a1> bazhang, none, that I am aware of
[14:04] <sipior> unr3a1: you might see if eth1 is there. try "ifconfig eth1" and see what turns up
[14:04] <bazhang> unr3a1, yeah try ifconfig
[14:04] <alecs> sipior: http://www.staffcop.com/features/ to see what are my active windows or so ... and be able how much time i have spent in one window or so
[14:04] <unr3a1> ifconfig only shows loopback
[14:04] <AaronH> unr3a1, try using "sudo lshw -C network" to see if your network cards are detected
[14:04] <sipior> alecs: mmm...creepy.
[14:05] <tyler> i'm getting this error: "include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing", the 'fix' is: "Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it" but idk how to do the fix
[14:05] <alecs> sipior: yeah i know ...
[14:05] <|StOnE|> i need a little help
[14:05] <|StOnE|>  anyone know how i can install kiba-dock
[14:05] <mateusz> XLV: hmm the "bad one" also works.. maybe I removed that bad one.. ok..
[14:05] <mateusz> XLV: but thanks
[14:06] <sipior> unr3a1: does "sudo ifconfig eth0" return an error?
[14:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !find kiba
[14:06] <microwaver> anyone using the applet 'screenlets' ?
[14:06] <unr3a1> sipior, yea.  it says that device does not exist
[14:06] <unr3a1> I haven't tried eth1
[14:06] <unr3a1> but I will
[14:06] <adac> are there any additional font packages for open office?
[14:06] <sipior> unr3a1: and eth1 is the same? looks like a driver didn't load...
[14:06] <XLV> mateusz, if the iso mounted on loopback on qemu works, but the same iso burned in a cd/dvd doesnt, then the writer or media is problematic, try writing to some other media or at lower speed
[14:07] <unr3a1> I need to reboot...  its dualbooted on the machine I am on right now
[14:07] <PyRo_> Is there any known reason winecfg would stall while creating the ~/.wine folder?
[14:07] <Assid> err
[14:07] <Assid> anyone got a working version of the live usb
[14:07] <bazhang> Assid, sure
[14:07] <AaronH> unr3a1, "sudo lshw -C network" will also give you your cards logical names like eth0, eth1, ect...
[14:07] <Assid> the doc is messed up.. just doesnt want to work for me
[14:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Assid Make an iso on usb bootable http://jak-linux.org/tmp/iso2usb.sh
[14:08] <bazhang> Assid, which docs
[14:08] <ramukmar> anyone using the new video ipod nanos with rhythmbox? is it just plug and play?
[14:08] <Assid> it shows me to copy the file to 1st partition.. but the 1st parititon is tiny
[14:09] <Jack_Sparrow> PyRo_ Sounds like a question for /join #Winehq
[14:09] <unr3a1> AaronH, alright.  I will give that a try and see what it outputs
[14:09] <PyRo_> Jack_Sparrow: Ty

[14:11] <bazhang> SidStudios, nice defense
[14:11] <lartza_> I can't delete some files via ftp
[14:11] <AaronH> unr3a1, did you try that command I gave you?
[14:11] <lartza_> Says directory not empty
[14:11] <SidStudios> bazhang: :p
[14:11] <sipior> unr3a1: i see it. can't remember which driver the Rhino-II uses...I assume via-rhine. try "sudo modprobe via-rhine", and see what happens
[14:11] <lartza_> Oops, not files, i meant directories on first message
[14:11] <unr3a1> kk
[14:11] <sidux> in fact the real good sentence would be "J'aime beaucoup habiter en milieu urbain"
[14:12] <SidStudios> sidux: Ah, and  the adjective will get me one more tick on the IGCSE, cheers
[14:12] <maikel> hoi
[14:13] <unr3a1> AaronH: I need to reboot to try all these commands and get their outputs.  My laptop is dual-booted between Slackware and Ubuntu...
[14:13] <ramukmar> does the new ipod nano work with rhythmbox in hardy?
[14:13] <bazhang> ramukmar, you tried it yet
[14:14] <SidStudios> sidux: So what would be the "milieu urban" alternative to "campagne"
[14:14] <ramukmar> bazhang: i have the older generation and it's fine, i might get one for a friend...want to check if it works
[14:14] <bazhang> yes!
[14:14] <AaronH> unr3a1, ah... well you should be able to get get the logical name for your network device then do "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" replace eth0 with the correct logical device name
[14:14] <Jack_Sparrow> SidStudios Can we stay on topic please
[14:15] <Pici> SidStudios: You probably want to ask in ##linguistics, #ubuntu is only for Ubuntu Linux support.
[14:15] <ramukmar> bazhang: and she's on ubuntu now :)
[14:15] <SidStudios> Pici: I'm terribly sorry, I didn't mean to disrupt your channel...
[14:15] <dmacnutt> oops
[14:15] <bazhang> sidux and SidStudios  you could open a channel such as #french and chat there
[14:15] <sidux> SidStudios: "milieu rural"
[14:16] <AaronH> unr3a1, after you get your device up and you want to connect to the internet you just have to do "sudo dhclient eth0" again replace eth0 with the correct name
[14:16] <SidStudios> bazhang: Thanks for the suggestion! sidux: Thanks :D
[14:16] <S4nD3r> Hi there. Everytime I start my 8.04 box, I need to run recovery mode, ask to fix xorg. Is possible to solve it??
[14:16] <SidStudios> S4nD3r: Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[14:16] <S4nD3r> gnome do not starts if do not run this fix of xorg
[14:16] <S4nD3r> 8
[14:16] <microwaver> anyone here that AWN?
[14:16] <SidStudios> The LTS?
[14:16] <rrohde> S4nD3r: I had that when I didn't change my menu.lst to the newest kernel
[14:17] <SidStudios> S4ND3R: Did you upgrade Dists or Fresh install?
[14:17] <S4nD3r> I installed 8 directly from CD
[14:17] <S4nD3r> it was working until yesterday
[14:17] <S4nD3r> normallu
[14:17] <S4nD3r> normally
[14:17] <SidStudios> S4nD3r: Hmm, try deleting Xorg so it creates a fresh one for you
[14:18] <SidStudios> Do a backup
[14:18] <microwaver> How do I restore my panels
[14:18] <microwaver> !panels
[14:18] <bazhang> !resetpanels
[14:18] <microwaver> !gnomepanel
[14:18] <guysoft42> hey all, is there a way to run do-release-upgrade, without it asking questions?
[14:18] <SidStudios> cp /etc/X11/Xorg.conf /etc/X11/Xorg.conf.bak
[14:18] <BonezAU> Hi, I am having trouble getting a TP-Link USB adapter to work. It uses the RALink "rt73usb" module by default. I have been googling for a couple of hours and have tried everything. The out-of-the-box ubuntu rt73usb driver *does* work, but it connects to my wireless lan at about 2mbps and it drops out regularly. Has anyone had any success in getting this type of USB wi-fi adapter to work correctly in Ubuntu?
[14:18] <microwaver> bazhang, thanks, :) that was the thing i was looking for
[14:18] <microwaver> Hmmm got a more serious problem
[14:18] <unr3a1> Aaron
[14:19] <SidStudios> microwaver: What can I do to serve you?
[14:19] <microwaver> I've got my panels, but I don't have the menu bar on application (i mean maximize, minimize, ...
[14:19] <microwaver> SidStudios, I can't, e.g. drag and drop applications
[14:19] <narcoclepsy> has anyone gotten a geforce 8200 rev a2 working on ubuntu? Envyng does not seem to know my card
[14:19] <SidStudios> SidStudios: Oh, you mean like in Mac OS X?
[14:19] <unr3a1> AaronH:  alright.  will do that..  is there anything else I should do if lshw -C doesn't pull anything?
[14:20] <W8TAH> hi folks - this is a very noob question -- but i need to know so i dont screw it up -- im beginning to learn to package deb files for the carrier project -- if im packaging an app that uses X and the gui - i need a computer with X etc on it to build the packages on, right?
[14:20] <Jack_Sparrow> microwaver compiz --replace
[14:20] <SidStudios> W8TAH: You might
[14:20] <S4nD3r> SidStudios: how to recreate other xorg.conf ??
[14:20] <microwaver> Jack_Sparrow, what does that just do?
[14:20] <W8TAH> SidStudios, ok - thats what i was thinkin
[14:20] <SidStudios> S4nD3r: Just reboot, it should auotmatically make a new one for oyu
[14:20] <Assid> i think that shell script seems better way to go
[14:20] <Jack_Sparrow> microwaver dives you back window decorations like open close and minimize
[14:21] <SidStudios> S4nd3r: And if it doesn't create one that works, use your old backup
[14:21] <Jack_Sparrow> gives
[14:21] <Assid> it should have added -v in the cp .. so people know whats happening
[14:21] <S4nD3r> ok then
[14:21] <S4nD3r> I will reboot to try it
[14:21] <microwaver> Jack_Sparrow, a quick gfx reboot did the job :)
[14:21] <AaronH> unr3a1, "sudo lshw -C network" should give you the info you need to do "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" then "sudo dhclient eth0" and you should have internet with no problems.

[14:22] <voodoo> i have the following error http://paste.ubuntu.com/13487/ when trying to `apt-get update`. how do i solve it?
[14:22] <microwaver> anyone that has experience using Avant- Windows - Manager?
[14:22] <SidStudios> microwaver: AWN is buggy
[14:23] <SidStudios> microwaver: Especially on Linux, since it does not support compiling of X11 components
[14:24] <microwaver> SidStudios, my only question is how to enable it without doing it in terminal avant-window-navigator &
[14:24] <SidStudios> Microwaver: It shoud be in accessories
[14:24] <SidStudios> Or something
[14:24] <Vlet> voodoo: I probably know your problem. Past the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:24] <Vlet> voodoo: to paste.ubuntu.com
[14:25] <voodoo> Vlet, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13488/
[14:25] <Vlet> voodoo: I'm curious, did you use some sort of tool to generate your sources.list?
[14:26] <voodoo> no, default source.list
[14:26] <voodoo> never touched it
[14:26] <Yo`> Hello community
[14:27] <manifest> mikä se kuutioextra oli missä sai sen kuution jota siirrellä
[14:27] <Vlet> voodoo: yep, see the "web" at the end of line 5, and 50. remove that. it's garbage, and I've seen people with the same problem before too.

[14:28] <marshcast> will it work ok if I install 32bit ubuntu to 64bit machine?
[14:28] <Yo`> FYI i am new with linux
[14:28] <bazhang> Yo`, that is not supported
[14:28] <Vlet> voodoo: ahh, good to know.
[14:28] <Pici> Yo`: Thats probably because the package repositories are no longer online.  Breezy's End of Life was April of 2007.
[14:28] <SidStudios> marshcast: Yeah
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow> !eol | Yo`
[14:29] <Pici> !breezy | Yo`
[14:29] <Dr_willis> marshcast,  64bit hardware has always been able to run 32bit os;s "_
[14:29] <SidStudios> marshcast: If you have 4GB ram, it wont recognizse it in 32bit
[14:29] <Yo`> yes Pici
[14:29] <S4nD3r> without xorg.conf it keeps starting in dark screen. Then, I restart in recoverymode, runned sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg  , to work and I be here again.
[14:29] <marshcast> cheers SidStudios
[14:29] <SidStudios> marshcast: No problem
[14:29] <Assid> err
[14:29] <S4nD3r> is there any other reconfigure to do ?
[14:29] <Assid> the shell script is messed
[14:29] <Yo`> i am only having this version on this machine
[14:29] <marshcast> SidStudios, not much chance (or need) of that!#
[14:29] <marshcast> ;)
[14:29] <SidStudios> marshcast: :p
[14:29] <Assid> Jack_Sparrow: the shell script didnt make the drive bootable
[14:29] <Yo`> Pici any help :)
[14:29] <Pici> Yo`: We can no longer support that version, sorry.
[14:29] <db92> how do i disable a module thats in use?
[14:29] <bazhang> for support Yo` get a more recent version
[14:29] <Vlet> Yo`: you're probably best off just backing up all your personal documents or whatever to a cd or thumb drive or somewhere else, and just install Hardy
[14:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Yo` You need to get a newer/supported version.. you will continue to have problems if you do not
[14:30] <SidStudios> Yo`: Why don't you just get 8.04?
[14:30] <SidStudios> It's like using windows 3.1
[14:30] <marshcast> 'ere! SidStudios you know anything about usb support?
[14:30] <Yo`> i have no problems sid
[14:30] <SidStudios> marshcast: It works great
[14:30] <SidStudios> marshcast: I use x64 right now
[14:30] <marshcast> not here...
[14:30] <Assid> bbiab
[14:30] <Yo`> i am doing this breezy on very old hardrive
[14:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Assid Odd, that is the one I used.
[14:30] <SidStudios> marshcast: why, what happens?
[14:30] <Yo`>  i dont know it can take a pain of any more formatting
[14:30] <erUSUL> db92: sudo modprobe -r module_name
[14:30] <Assid> Jack_Sparrow: it just sits there
[14:30] <Assid> doing nothing
[14:30] <Vlet> Yo`: just because it's an old computer doesn't mean you have to use old software.
[14:31] <Assid> i dont see it ready to boot
[14:31] <marshcast> i want to know if theres a way to reset all usb drivers/support to default... am having massive issues with printing usb.
[14:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Assid Cant help other than sending you to pendrivelinux.com
[14:31] <Yo`> ok vlet
[14:31] <wers> how do I open a .rar which requires a password if i dont know the password? hehe
[14:31] <Yo`> i have some edgy version lying around
[14:31] <marshcast> have tried everything I can find online
[14:31] <Assid> weill check in a bit
[14:31] <db92> erUSUL, FATAL: Module saa7134_alsa is in use.
[14:31] <marshcast> dmesg is a mess - and I cant make sense of it
[14:31] <db92> which is the one im trying to shut down
[14:31] <unr3a1> AaronH: I got something weird: http://rafb.net/p/NXa1tq97.html
[14:31] <marshcast> and I think it's usb related :(
[14:31] <Vlet> Yo`: use hardy. It's not like it's slower; just more refined.
[14:31] <S4nD3r> looks that gnome ignores xorg.conf
[14:32] <unr3a1> looks like it has the drivers to my wireless card as well...
[14:32] <Yo`> i have glib-2.14.0 with me
[14:32] <Yo`> but i am not able to do make or make install
[14:32] <marshcast> what you reckon SidStudios -- can i revert to original settings - it used to work...!
[14:32] <erUSUL> db92: something is using the soundcard maybe you have to «sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop» and also make sure any other program that may be using it is closed
[14:32] <SidStudios> marshcast: What happened that caused it to fial
[14:32] <bazhang> Yo`, get a more recent version gutsy or up and then come back for support
[14:33] <marshcast> don't know - it just stopped working.
[14:33] <Yo`> i have edited source file
[14:33] <db92> erUSUL, just did it, still says the same thing
[14:33] <marshcast> SidStudios, -- i've now bought a new one, and same prob :(
[14:33] <SidStudios> Damn
[14:33] <Yo`> and now trying contrib
[14:33] <db92> erUSUL, not to mention, when i also tried to stop alsa-utils it said it found no sound card
[14:33] <unr3a1> AaronH?
[14:33] <SidStudios> marshcast: Try putting X64 on it as a live CD
[14:33] <marshcast> i've used loads of them, so I know it's installed ok.
[14:33] <AaronH> unr3a1, looking at it
[14:33] <SidStudios> And see if it gets detected during your live CD sesion
[14:33] <unr3a1> oh ok
[14:33] <unr3a1> sorry
[14:33] <unr3a1> lol
[14:33] <erUSUL> db92: lsmod | grep saa7134_alsa
[14:33] <marshcast> x64 live wouldn't boot
[14:33] <db92> erUSUL, while it did just few mins before i tried to stop it
[14:34] <Dybber> Hi, I have a seperate /home partition, but it doesn't report the correct amount of available diskspace (i.e. if you compare the reported with "partition size minus used space"). This looks related: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=633261 but I doesn't look like he had any luck solving it either :(
[14:34] <SidStudios> marshcast: :|
[14:34] <marshcast> this has been a nightmare for weeks SidStudios :(
[14:34] <AaronH> unr3a1, you want to get your ethernet controller working right?
[14:34] <marshcast> SidStudios, my setiments exactly
[14:34] <SidStudios> marshcast: What does DMESG say?
[14:34] <unr3a1> AaronH: I am also having some issues with my laptop and its power, so I may get disconnected suddenly...
[14:34] <Vlet> Yo`: nothing you do will fix the problem. The repositories for your version are gone, and the packages for the newer versions won't work with your system. You have ONLY two choices: use the system as it is now without any updates ever, or install hardy
[14:34] <unr3a1> AaronH: yes, I would
[14:34] <Yo`> ok can i print the screen here
[14:34] <db92> erUSUL, http://pastebin.ca/1023787
[14:34] <Jack_Sparrow> no
[14:35] <unr3a1> AaronH cause I need to download the drivers for my wireless card, and I cannot do that unless I can get my ethernet connection to work.
[14:35] <bazhang> Yo`, that is not supported; please get a more recent version and come back thanks
[14:35] <Yo`> Vlet can i listen to mp3 files on this system?
[14:35] <Pici> Yo`: We cannot support you until you are running a more current version of Ubuntu, Feisty or later. Please stop asking.
[14:35] <richard_> does xchat use different text rendering than the rest of gnome, the fonts look more edgy to me than the rest of the desktop
[14:35] <Yo`> ok
[14:35] <Yo`> take care
[14:36] <Yo`> see ya around
[14:36] <Yo`> excite
[14:36] <Yo`> excite
[14:36] <ikonia> ......ok
[14:36] <Yo`> exit
[14:36] <FloodBot3> Yo`: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[14:36] <frojnd> what's the package name for java ?
[14:36] <marshcast> SidStudios, looks like permissions in dmesg... Hang on - i'll try to install printer again & pastebin it...
[14:37] <ikonia> frojnd: open synaptic and search for java - you'll see multiple options
[14:37] <frojnd> ikonia: I need only one
[14:37] <Jack_Sparrow> ranit This is for 7.10 but it may help  http://invaleed.wordpress.com/2007/11/20/install-bcm94311mcg-wlan-mini-pci-ubuntu-710/
[14:37] <ikonia> frojnd: ok - so look at the otions and chose which one meets your needs
[14:37] <ikonia> frojnd: look at the descriptions to get a better idea
[14:37] <erUSUL> db92: sudo modprobe -r snd && sudo modprobe -r snd_pcm && sudo modprobe -r saa7134_alsa
[14:38] <frojnd> ikonia: what if I don't have synaptic... only ubuntu server what's connected with ubuntu...
[14:38] <ikonia> frojnd: apt-cache search is the command line version
[14:38] <ranit> ok i ll check out
[14:38] <ikonia> frojnd: you may want to consider running the desktop version if your not confident with the command line
[14:38] <frojnd> ikonia: I get like 100 options..
[14:38] <ikonia> frojnd: pipe it through more
[14:38] <db92> erUSUL, FATAL: Module snd is in use.
[14:38] <AaronH> unr3a1, im doing a google search for "VT6102 ubuntu" to see if there is a way to fix your network
[14:39] <unr3a1> kk
[14:39] <frojnd> ikonia: I am ok with command line... let me ask other way, for playing games with java..
[14:39] <frojnd> ikonia: so I can | grep...
[14:39] <AaronH> unr3a1, you should be searching too
[14:39] <AaronH> :)
[14:39] <ikonia> frojnd: how do you expect to play games with java without a gui ?
[14:39] <unr3a1> do you know what those mean?  *-network:1 UNCLAIMED?
[14:39] <unr3a1> I am doing a google search for that
[14:39] <frojnd> ikonia: I have gui - fluxbox..
[14:39] <michele> ubuntu-it
[14:39] <marshcast> SidStudios, this is the tail end of dmesg http://pastebin.com/m56dcade1
[14:39] <ikonia> frojnd: ok - so you should have synaptic
[14:39] <cappicrd> hi
[14:40] <frojnd> ikonia: did I mentioned that I've installed fluxbox after server...
[14:40] <ikonia> frojnd: but you can install synapcit
[14:40] <ikonia> synaptic
[14:40] <frojnd> ikonia: no I don't have synaptic and I don't need it..
[14:40] <AaronH> unr3a1, sorry I dont know exactly what "*-network:1 UNCLAIMED" means.
[14:40] <ikonia> frojnd: you seem to need it as your struggling
[14:40] <frojnd> ikonia: all I'm askinh here what should e a word after | grep if  Iwanna java for playing games
[14:41] <ikonia> frojnd: use the package manager to get descripitions
[14:41] <ikonia> frojnd: it may seem harsh but I'm trying to teach you how to fish rather than give you fish
[14:41] <frojnd> ikonia: I'll tell u when I find it since it's too hard for u :)
[14:41] <Vlet> frojnd: apparantly you DO need it
[14:41] <ikonia> frojnd: I know the answer thanks
[14:41] <bazhang> frojnd, best to listen to advice :)
[14:42] <marshcast> and this is the whole thing...: http://pastebin.com/m1cddcbd1, SidStudios can you see anything in there?

[14:43] <frojnd> ikonia: exactly
[14:43] <Yo`> a question
[14:43] <garrett__> because i got mine back up to windows speeds
[14:43] <Yo`> can i run a upgrade install
[14:43] <Jack_Sparrow> garrett__ Did you find a howto?
[14:43] <S4nD3r> the guys from ubuntu
[14:43] <Yo`> i have two recent version install cd with me
[14:43] <frojnd> ikonia: how did u mean I would play games if not with firefox..
[14:43] <garrett__> Jack_Sparrow: just readded DRI to my xorg conf
[14:43] <ikonia> Yo`: from 5.10 it's going to be tough
[14:44] <cappicrd> interest
[14:44] <frojnd> :P
[14:44] <ikonia> frojnd: java games
[14:44] <daskReech> hello
[14:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Yo` you could go through all of the upgrades, but that would take a long time.  Much better to save /home and install a newer version
[14:44] <S4nD3r> I dont believe that I will need to run my hardy in recovery mode only...
[14:44] <sportman1280> Hello, is there a way to add a menu entry to above the "about gnome" button in System?
[14:44] <daskReech> is sound initalized by the x server?
[14:44] <ikonia> Yo`: from your version it may be easier to just do a clean update
[14:44] <frojnd> ikonia: I don't have taht much resources.
[14:44] <frojnd> .taht ==that
[14:44] <daskReech> Shouldn't I be able to get sound without having to log into a X session?
[14:44] <Yo`> you mean to say to do a clean install?
[14:44] <flush> yo
[14:44] <flush> mayday
[14:45] <Pici> Yo`: Backup your /home and format and install new version of Ubuntu
[14:45] <Yo`> huh
[14:45] <daskReech> when does Sound initialize?
[14:45] <Yo`> ok
[14:45] <Vlet> !ask | flush
[14:45] <Yo`> riight
[14:45] <daskReech> or what should I run to initalize the sound?
[14:45] <daskReech> :-)
[14:45] <flush> i was just given a toshiba satellite laptop ok, but the little tits on the keyboard you use as mouse doesnt work.. i booted ubuntu 7.10 live cd and it keeps not working (wasnt working with winxp installed on it).. how cna i know if its software or if its broken
[14:45] <daskReech> is another way to put it
[14:45] <bagualas_> why hardy heron 64 bits, is half portuguese, and half english when using portuguese language? bad translation? bug?
[14:45] <Jack_Sparrow> garrett__ what does that mean.. sorry for the lag
[14:46] <flush> should it work right out of the box when you boot the live cd ?
[14:46] <sidewalk> when will ubuntu package of firefox be available?
[14:46] <garrett__> Jack_Sparrow: in xorg.conf, in your "Module" section, adding glx/v4l/dbe/extmod/fbdevhw/record/freetype/type1/dri took care of it.  plenty speedy now.
[14:46] <sidewalk> rc1
[14:46] <Vlet> flush: if the trackpad works, and the nipple doesn't, it's probably hadware, especially if two different OS's could use it
[14:46] <garrett__> Jack_Sparrow: i.e: section "Module" Load "glx" Load "v4l" ..... EndSection
[14:46] <ikonia> sidewalk: ubuntu has firefox in the repo
[14:46] <bazhang> !ff3rc | sidewalk
[14:47] <ikonia> sidewalk: there is no point updating to RC1 - just wait for final
[14:47] <flush> Vlet theres no trackpad only a nipple.. its old laptop
[14:47] <sportman1280> ikonia: there always a point
[14:47] <garrett__> ikonia: i'm running RC1 right now, and i'm not noticing a huge difference performance wise.
[14:47] <flush> you say it would be hardware ?
[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow> garrett__ thanks. saved that in my notes
[14:47] <daskReech> flush: could
[14:47] <garrett__> Jack_Sparrow: no problem
[14:47] <flush> so gay.. thx
[14:47] <grimsqueaker13> can anyone help me with accessing a windows share from ubuntu? the windows guest is enabled and the group everyone has full share and security access
[14:48] <ikonia> garrett__: I mean in terms of development effort to intergrate RC1 - then intergrat potentially RC2 - then stable
[14:48] <ikonia> garrett__: from ubunti's point of view it makes more sense to just update to final
[14:48] <garrett__> ikonia: ah, yeah
[14:48] <Vlet> flush: ahh. Well, I would say that there's still a really good chance that it's hardware. generally, whatever OS is on the laptop, doesn't know what type of mouse it is; the computer just tells the OS, "I have a mouse at address xxxxx, go ahead and use it"
[14:48] <flush> k Vlet so the nipple should always work thats the lesson right ?
[14:49] <Beatbreaker> an upgrade has broken my Nvidia drivers
[14:49] <sportman1280> ikonia: i dont agree.  security fixes could have been made
[14:49] <ikonia> sportman1280: well, thats your parogative
[14:49] <erUSUL> Beatbreaker: how did you instaled the drivers?
[14:49] <Beatbreaker> i need help with my Nvidia driver
[14:49] <Vlet> flush: yeah, no special drivers should be needed; I'd say it's broke.
[14:49] <flush> kk
[14:49] <Jack_Sparrow> flush can we assume you double checked the bios settings
[14:49] <flush> thx ill chekc connections
[14:49] <flush> Jack_Sparrow negative
[14:49] <grimsqueaker13> network shares anyone?
[14:49] <daskReech> !SAMBA
[14:49] <flush> Jack_Sparrow in bios theres options for the nipple? cool ill check it out
[14:49] <Beatbreaker> erUSUL - i don't remember, i might have had to use a command prompt to install the Nvida driver
[14:50] <Jack_Sparrow> flush Just a thought
[14:50] <sportman1280> Hello, is there a way to add a menu entry to above the "about gnome" button in System?
[14:50] <flush> aight ill have a look
[14:50] <grimsqueaker13> i have looked at documents telling me how to do it, it doesnt work, thats why im here
[14:50] <Jack_Sparrow> sportman1280 there may be a way in gconf-editor
[14:50] <erUSUL> Beatbreaker: did you used envy or the drivers from nvidia.com site?
[14:50] <bazhang> what about alacarte
[14:50] <sportman1280> Jack_Sparrow:  good point didnt think about that.  Any idea where i should start looking in there?
[14:51] <Beatbreaker> hello
[14:51] <rutger> hello, i installed mythbuntu-control-centre but it says that mythbuntu_common.vnc doesnt exist (when I start mythbuntu-controle-centre)

[14:51] <Morph3us> hi.. someone knows about troubleshooting with the new linux kernel? (Hardy's kernel)

[14:51] <Juan> Hello, I am trying to add a terminal shortcut to my Xubuntu's QuickLaunch ... does anyone know the command to open a new terminal window?
[14:52] <erUSUL> !anyone | Morph3us
[14:52] <Morph3us> erUSUL, sorry for my bad english
[14:53] <erUSUL> Morph3us: no problem mine is bad too i was just pointing out that you will have to be more concise if you want an answer. "troubleshooting with the new linux kernel" is to vague
[14:53] <erUSUL> too*
[14:54] <perillux> my friend can't access the internet with Ubuntu, but needs to install a package.  How can he make sure it looks for the package on the CD and not online?
[14:54] <ikonia> perillux: open system -> administration -> software sources
[14:54] <Morph3us> erUSUL, my graphical interface get restarted randomly
[14:54] <ikonia> perillux: then remove the repo's and tick the "cd" check box
[14:54] <Jack_Sparrow> perillux software sources should have the cd listed and it should check there firast.
[14:55] <Morph3us> erUSUL, automatically closes my session, i lost all i was done.. this after a clean installation of Hardy.. with Gutsy all was ok

[14:59] <daskReech> jansen: Hi good $TIMEOFDAY
[14:59] <Vlet> Atomic_Bedroom: If it's asking your to resize the partition, it's asking you if you want to resize vista's partition.
[14:59] <erUSUL> Morph3us: if it is random and there is no error msg there is little i can do ....
[14:59] <Beatbreaker> from Fiesty to Gutsy

[15:00] <Morph3us> erUSUL, can u review my logs?
[15:00] <daskReech> timsom: read the help file ?

[15:00] <zamanfou> I bought a new keyboard which has some extra keys. The model is Lycosa from razer. How can I enable those keys (in touchpad) ?
[15:00] <ikonia> timsom: google for a guide, its not really an ubuntu product
[15:00] <Vlet> Phantal-: hit the print-screen button
[15:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Phantal- you have a menu option for that
[15:00] <daskReech> dissent: audacious is light. If thats' what's important then no
[15:00] <Morph3us> erUSUL, i will post my logs to pastebin
[15:01] <rrohde> Phantal  > Applications > Accessories > "Take Screenshot"
[15:01] <erUSUL> Morph3us: if you post them to pastebin i can take a look (post only the last 100 or so messages not everything)

[15:01] <Beatbreaker> how do i fix that?
[15:01] <CapeTown-HardyHe> I have logged into my new install of Hardy about 10 times now and the resolution is 800x600. However once (the 3rd time) it set the screen res to 1600x1200 (correct for my screen and I quite liked that although it was just automatic and out of the blue). It has been 800x600 since then and this is driving me crazy. Some setting menus in ZoneMinder are off the screen and I can't click save button at the bottom. How do I set the res
[15:01] <daskReech> possibly songbird but songbird is heeaavvy
[15:02] <amorphous_> can anyone tell me why a fresh ubuntu image wont boot?
[15:02] <Beatbreaker> hello
[15:02] <Atomic_Bedroom> ok can anyone help me manually edit/prepare partitions to dualboot?
[15:02] <daskReech> timsom: if you have more specific questions about bluefish you can ask again in here But the help file is the way to go
[15:02] <garrett__> CapeTown-HardyHe: try ctrl+alt+(plus button on the numpad)
[15:02] <Jack_Sparrow> amorphous_ bad dl bad burn, burned too fast, command line option may be required. etc
[15:02] <amorphous_> burnt on 2 different machines... tried to boot from 2 machines, md5sum on d/lded file is ok - but won't boot... :(
[15:02] <daskReech> !hi
[15:02] <garrett__> CapeTown-HardyHe: or ctrl+alt+(minus button on the numpad)
[15:02] <Vlet> amorphous_: You mean your computer won't boot off the CD?
[15:02] <erUSUL> CapeTown-HardyHe: «gksudo displayconfig-gtk» or try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[15:03] <garrett__> CapeTown-HardyHe: that'll cycle through resolutions available to x, so you can at least save your work or whatever.
[15:03] <Vlet> amorphous_: make sure your computer is set to try to boot off the CD before the primary drive
[15:03] <dissent> daskReech: yop i see, I need sth more compact :) so u think that amarok would be better ?
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> amorphous_ At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[15:03] <penetrarthur> hello, is it okey that with 4.08 ubuntu applications, and my laptop overall works much slower than with xp ?
[15:03] <Atomic_Bedroom> :(
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> amorphous_ burn at slowest possible speed..
[15:03] <CapeTown-HardyHe> Garrett__ : it goes to 640x480 and back to 800x600, which incidently are the only options in System - Preferences - Screen Resolution....
[15:03] <amorphous_> Vlet, yeah... burnt on laptop and desktop... both same result
[15:03] <garrett__> amorphe: are you getting an I/O error for /dev/fd0?
[15:04] <amorphous_> Jack_Sparrow, not getting that far!!
[15:04] <Morph3us> erUSUL, this is my Xorg.0.log http://www.pastebin.ca/1023804
[15:04] <Jack_Sparrow> amorphous_ Are you burning as image or as file
[15:04] <Vlet> amorphous_: no, you gotta make sure in your bios settings that your computer is trying to boot off the CD before anything else.
[15:04] <Beatbreaker> my Nvidia drivers broke after an upgrade from FF to GG
[15:04] <Beatbreaker> HELP

[15:05] <bazhang> Beatbreaker, how were drivers installed

[15:06] <anon111> Hi. I'm having a problem upgrading. I've run "sudo apt-get update", "sudo apt-get upgrade", and I get a 404 error for some packages, saying that they cannot be found. The packages that can't be found are on the UK Canonical server. I've also tried "sudo apt-get -f install", and this does nothing either. Is there anything you can recommend?
[15:06] <jbroome> anon111: try a different mirror
[15:07] <Atomic_Bedroom> so if i've already got a partition table with the vista partition on it, and a small second partition for the vista backup (i think it is), how would I go about creating space for the ubuntu partition?
[15:07] <garrett__> it made me happy to get it working, haha.  i was out of blanks.  but i can't for the life of my rationalize why i couldn't have any whitespace at the end of the line *shrug*
[15:07] <anon111> ok - i'll try the main one
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> garrett__ If you have patience.. it will try the fd up to three times then go through with the install
[15:07] <dee> Hello
[15:07] <Morph3us> erUSUL, this is my /var/log/syslog http://www.pastebin.ca/1023806 and my /var/log/messages http://www.pastebin.ca/1023809
[15:07] <Vlet> anon111: paste the contents of the file /etc/apt/sources.list to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and give us the link
[15:07] <daskReech> Atomic_Bedroom: The installer will do that for you
[15:07] <garrett__> Jack_Sparrow: if there was whitespace, it'd read for /dev/fd0.  if there wasn't, it'd never try to read.  if it read from /dev/fd0, it'd drop me into whatever the installer shell is
[15:07] <dee> Could someone tell me why Ubuntu Live is cancelled in June? Does anybody has some background information?
[15:07] <Atomic_Bedroom> mmm that's what i thought, though it's missing the option to do that
[15:08] <Atomic_Bedroom> it does not display the option  resize the partition and use the freed space."
[15:08] <garrett__> Jack_Sparrow: and i couldn't mount my cdr, because it hadn't loaded squashfs yet
[15:08] <daskReech> Atomic_Bedroom: Ah Interesting
[15:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Vlet Have you ever tried this..  sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[15:08] <Atomic_Bedroom> yeah I have no idea why, and it's making installation hard
[15:08] <Vlet> Jack_Sparrow: whoa, rad :)
[15:08] <Vlet> Jack_Sparrow: when did that show up?
[15:08] <Jack_Sparrow> garrett__ I have like 4 Dell lappys here, I understand your pain
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Vlet Feisty
[15:09] <jbroome> dee: http://en.oreilly.com/ubuntu2008/public/content/home  that one?
[15:09] <szczym> helo all, do you know where i cane change resolution of my external monitor to have 1680x1050 - on 7.04 i could do that in xorg.conf but now it not works there ...
[15:09] <daskReech> Atomic_Bedroom: can you run Gparted?
[15:09] <garrett__> Jack_Sparrow: i'm currently using my laptop half dissembled. :P  the CFL or backligit went out, and i haven't rummaged up one yet
[15:09] <alan_2008> hi
[15:09] <Atomic_Bedroom> haven't tried just yet
[15:09] <anon111> jbroome: Thanks - switching to the main mirror worked. :) Is there anywhere I should report the problem, or is it just a matter of waiting until the UK server is re-synched with the main one?
[15:09] <Atomic_Bedroom> i guess it's my only option atm
[15:09] <dee> jbroome: yes. that Ubuntu Live. It's cancelled but I do not find any information about it.
[15:09] <garrett__> Jack_Sparrow: the fact that there isn't much of the case on it helps with cooling, though
[15:10] <jbroome> anon111: usually just waiting will do
[15:10] <rutger> Jack_Sparrow: i had a problem with mythtv, ive solved it by completely uninstalling mythtv and mythbuntu packages and select none when lirc asks which remote I have
[15:10] <anon111> jbroome: Okay. Thanks again for your help.
[15:10] <Jack_Sparrow> rutger cool
