[20:34] <GHOST> hey!
[20:34] <flibberdy> GHOST: linux/bsd can use pretty  much whichever partition type the user wants
[20:34] <rohan> zelda`: oops my bad ..
[20:34] <ripdisk> ifireball, it says i already have the newest version
[20:35] <GHOST> o ok!
[20:35] <guest946> butcherbird, what minimum specs would I need so it uses little power?
[20:35] <sidewalk> i just switched graphics card on my pc running ubuntu 7.10 and tried having some effects working in gnome
[20:35] <ripdisk> so apparently i downloaded and installed it already
[20:35] <jalen> anybody know of a good terminal 'edit' that I can install?
[20:35] <rohan> zelda`: you've done "sudo aptitude install build-essential" ?
[20:35] <ifireball> ripdisk: also, synaptic should be obvious enough for you, it also pops up a help screen when you run it for the 1st time...
[20:35] <GHOST> i have xubuntu in dualboot with desktopdsb
[20:35] <Flannel> jalen: nano, vim.
[20:35] <flibberdy> zelda, have you tried just typing "make"  in the directory with all the files? is there a filed called "makefile" ?
[20:35] <sidewalk> but when i try to load "special settings" it says that it cant enable the new settings
[20:35] <zelda`> wtf theres only 1% disk space left!
[20:35] <GHOST> lol
[20:35] <ifireball> ripdisk: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Mencoder_Introduction_Guide; or google for another mencoder howto...
[20:35] <butcherbird> guest946: id think 64-128MB ram and pII or above would work
[20:35] <ripdisk> ifireball: i don't use any of the stuff that game with this distro, i switch to kde and stuff
[20:35] <butcherbird> guest946: basically any 30 dollar ebay computer
[20:35] <sidewalk> how do i reinstall and reconfigure my graphics card, and more important, how do i get special 3d effects working?
[20:36] <GHOST> xubuntu is fine 4 128mb
[20:36] <flibberdy> jalen: edit? you mean a text editor? there are holy wars fought over less.. vim/emacs are hardcore, nano or pico are lightweight. I like nano and vim
[20:36] <GHOST> me its xfce!
[20:36] <nickrud> verb3k, how do we get ourselves banned from that stats page :) :)
[20:36] <ifireball> ripdisk: then use adept, whatever, any package manager with a search function will do...
[20:36] <guest946> butcherbird, I'd rather just build it from old parts I can scab off other people =).... I haven't used ubuntu in ages... how much disk space does a minimal install use?
[20:37] <verb3k> nickrud, ask the site admin :)
[20:37] <ripdisk> ifireball: ok, i'm reading that page right now..
[20:37] <GHOST> first time im using irc...
[20:37] <mint> please help with kmobiletools file system!!!
[20:37] <GHOST> on xubuntu!
[20:37] <butcherbird> guest946: not sure about minimal ubuntu ive done recent debian installs at 900MB with fluxbox gui
[20:37] <zelda`> how do i empty the trash folder
[20:37] <butcherbird> guest946: old ubuntu full install was 1.8G
[20:37] <GHOST> lol
[20:37] <ifireball> ripdisk: note: I havn't read it so don't ask me about it, its just the 1st result form google...
[20:37] <guest946> butcherbird, ah excellent... I am on gentoo right now so it's atleast 10 GB >_<
[20:38] <ripdisk> ifireball: gotcha
[20:38] <GHOST> hey nice
[20:38] <Odd-rationale> zelda`: Right-click the applet on the panel. say empty
[20:38] <GHOST> lol tats it
[20:38] <butcherbird> guest946: yeah source increases it a bit :)
[20:39] <Whitor> Does VTC software exist for Ubuntu? Some sort of app that does h.323 video and audio ?
[20:39] <zelda`> how do i see how much disk space is left
[20:39] <Flannel> Whitor: check out ekiga
[20:39] <Whitor> ekiga... I'll check it out
[20:39] <EADG> zelda`: df -h in a terminal
[20:40] <zelda`> is this important
[20:40] <zelda`> /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/volatile

[20:42] <Flannel> skullhead: which browser?
[20:42] <ip00n> like.. get a plugin
[20:42] <zelda`> LOL theres 69% free space now
[20:43] <ifireball> skullhead: installing on firefox should make it available for all gecko browsers on your system
[20:43] <skullhead> konqueror

[20:43] <nenolod> :D
[20:44] <GHOST> lol
[20:44] <Flannel> skullhead: looks like you need to have konqueror search for new plugins, and it ought to find it

[20:46] <the_padawan> hello all, what distribution would you recommend for an oldish laptop, 384 Mb ram and 1.5Ghz pentium?
[20:46] <verb3k> the_padawan, ubuntu :D
[20:46] <wols_> the_padawan: any will do and such a lappie is FAR from oldish
[20:46] <nenolod> verb3k, packager. Ubuntu syncs them from Debian. :P
[20:46] <Whitor> the_padawan: ubuntu
[20:46] <GHOST> xubuntu lol
[20:46] <zelda`> why is / only editable by root
[20:47] <Whitor> security reasons
[20:47] <nenolod> verb3k<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:47] <zelda`> well now I can't delete these files i don't need

[20:47] <EADG> How do I get ath0/wifi0 to load and aquire an ip at boot time? This box is my remote server...
[20:47] <verb3k> nenolod, I have a little app and and want to make a .deb of it ... I have been looking for someone to package it for me...could you help?
[20:48] <nenolod> verb3k, depends on if i find it useful. :P

[20:48] <tritium> zelda`: really, don't threaten DoS here, please
[20:48] <verb3k> nenolod, it's useful for gamers :)
[20:48] <lonejack> hi all, I installed java on system but firefox doesn't see it. What is the plugin to install:j2re1.4-mozilla-plugin? Is it good with java6?
[20:48] <Whitor> Drixx: Check out #Compiz-fusion
[20:48] <verb3k> nenolod, PSX game CD backup tool using cdrdao as a backend
[20:48] <nenolod> verb3k, hmm. the only games i play are PS1 games in my emulator, UPE.
[20:48] <Odd-rationale> Drixx: Try taking this to the expert at #compix-fusion Sorry couldn't help more.
[20:48] <nenolod> verb3k, sure. I can do that.
[20:48] <wols_> lonejack: no. 64 or 32bit ubuntu?
[20:49] <Odd-rationale> *#compiz-fusion
[20:49] <Drixx> Odd-rationale: thnx for ur time ..... :)
[20:49] <lonejack> wols_:64
[20:49] <nenolod> verb3k, do you have a URL to a website?
[20:49] <verb3k> nenolod, yes http://psxim.googlecode.com
[20:50] <Montego> Does anyone know If there Is a Plan to offer a roll back tool for the updates? Dare I say Like Windows XP.
[20:50] <wols_> lonejack: there is no java plugin for 64bit Linux. either run nspluginwrapper with the 32bit plugin or use a 32bit firefox and the plugin. same for flash. no other way
[20:50] <wols_> monshin: no
[20:50] <wols_> Montego: no. downgrade is not possible and not anticipated
[20:51] <ifireball> Montego: you can start such a plan on the Dev. wiki....
[20:51] <MoxJet> Hello. What is the font package named with the fonts nu and clean?
[20:51] <nenolod> verb3k, i'll look into it.
[20:51] <Montego> Wols Hmm there has been problems with some Updates packages in the past. Thats why I am asking
[20:52] <tritium> Montego: that is a rare occasion, and when it happens, it is fixed.
[20:52] <flibberdy> anyone here know how i can move my gkrellm "window" in XFCE4?
[20:53] <verb3k> nenolod, I will be waiting here :)  note the program is only one file ( if you can make a menu item for it I really appreciate it. Use the Icon "media-optical" for it)
[20:53] <ifireball> Montego: seeing that some of the newer package management systems can do this kind of stuff, someone may ush that into APT eventually, like I said, if there is demand stirring up on the wiki/bug-list ppl may work on it sooner...
[20:53] <ax1s> am i the only one who has had a brand new install of kubuntu gutsys updater crash on them
[20:54] <nenolod> verb3k, can you include a Makefile to install your packages?
[20:54] <GHOST> i think so...
[20:54] <wraith> This was not the plan at all.
[20:54] <verb3k> nenolod, I don't know anything about make
[20:54] <wols_> ifireball: 21:54 <dpkg> methinks downgrade is not possible with apt-get currently.  No future support is anticipated.  Some programs change the binary format of their files in a way that cannot be rolled back later, and package maintainer scripts provide ways to upgrade to new config file formats but not ways to downgrade.  You can always try to downgrade a package using dpkg -i <olderversion.deb>.
[20:54] <Montego> Am Not a Developer. But for us that are new to Ubuntu sure would be nice little tool when we screw things up. Will Look at Wiki. Thanks
[20:55] <GHOST> BYE ALL
[20:55] <verb3k> nenolod, that's why I am looking for a volunteer packager :)
[20:55] <MoxJet> MoxJet: They are called the artwiz fonts
[20:55] <MoxJet> n00b
[20:55] <lonejack> wols_: nspluginwrapper is already installed but when I go to page:http://javatester.org/version.html, the java doesn't work...
[20:55] <verb3k> nenolod, it's a python script and doesn't need compilation
[20:55] <ifireball> wols_: I never said its easy, but its not impossible, switching to the new init system wasn't any simpler, and it was done eventually
[20:56] <wols_> lonejack: you also need to load the javaplugin via nspluginwrapper....
[20:56] <wols_> ifireball: package management is a bit more complicated than a init system
[20:57] <nenolod> verb3k, http://nenolod.net/psxim.diff
[20:57] <alesan> hi, any idea if there is a software to access exchange 2007?
[20:57] <l21logan99> !ndiswrapper
[20:57] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[20:57] <alesan> !exchange
[20:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about exchange - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:58] <ifireball> wols_: that is a very academic question, and I don't necessarily agree, any case the hard stuff is never the technical details, but the developer coordination
[20:58] <aslam> i have a SAA7130 TV Tuner and it detects it but i cant get any video to show
[20:58] <verb3k> nenolod, thanks, what is the function of this file ?
[20:58] <klky> The newest kernel gives me kernel panic,suddenly after a reboot. no changes were made. What do I do? (VFS can't mode root file system etc)
[20:59] <wols_> klky: pastebin your menu.lst and sudo fdisk -l output
[20:59] <nenolod> verb3k, apply it with patch to your psxim source and it'll allow psxim to be installed via make install.
[21:01] <Owner> hi
[21:01] <Owner> hi
[21:01] <verb3k> nenolod, ok, then I first go to my source's root and then use the patch command, but I am missing the syntax ( I told you I have no clue about packaging :) )
[21:02] <n4t> hi all
[21:02] <nenolod> patch -p1 < psxim.diff
[21:02] <klky> wols_, http://paste.maxdamantus.uni.cc/170. fdisk output isn't all english

[21:03] <GHOST> hey i there
[21:03] <smokie> hi all, does anyone has experience with linux-abi, i need to emulate sco unix ? Tried compiling 2.6.22 kernel with no luck ??
[21:04] <GHOST> salut !
[21:04] <wols_> klky: ls /boot/initrd*
[21:04] <Jordan_U> smokie, ##linux is probably a better place to ask
[21:04] <smokie> thanks, jordan
[21:05] <lonejack> wols_: now seems quite clear what I have to do (http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux-amd64.html). Thx
[21:05] <klky> wols_, http://paste.maxdamantus.uni.cc/171
[21:05] <Jordan_U> smokie, np, why do you need to emulate sco Unix out of curiosity?
[21:05] <n4t> I have a problem with the refresh rate of the screen
[21:05] <n4t> how can I solve?
[21:05] <Jordan_U> n4t, I assume that problem is the the refresh rate is incorrect?
[21:06] <n4t> how can I change it?
[21:06] <n4t> by console...
[21:06] <monshin3> file-roller supports the creation of password protected rars?
[21:06] <stefano> flash doesnt work, firefox says that it's not installed, flashplugin-nonfree and ubuntu-restricted-extras are installed and firefox has been restarted, has anyone any idea why?
[21:07] <kyu_flux> stefano: amd64?
[21:07] <Jordan_U> n4t, The configuration file is /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you edit it you should probably create a backup first
[21:07] <stefano> kyu_flux, no, standard 32bit
[21:07] <n4t> in that file isn't any information about refresh
[21:07] <kyu_flux> stefano: sorry, can't help. I had that problem with amd64 yesterday...
[21:07] <Jordan_U> n4t, You can also try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[21:07] <thebreak31> org
[21:08] <n4t> Jordan_U, is a problem with the hardware .... also in the live cd I noticed that... problem
[21:08] <CB_> hey
[21:09] <CB_> hey which is better, debian or ubuntu
[21:09] <ifireball> CB_: it depends...
[21:09] <ere4si> stefano, is it for you tube?
[21:09] <wols_> CB_: depends where you ask
[21:09] <klky> ^
[21:09] <stefano> ere4si, yes
[21:09] <ifireball> CB_: also depend on what you're trying to do
[21:10] <ere4si> stefano: the shockwave plugin from firefox then :)
[21:10] <CB_> which is faster
[21:10] <stefano> ere4si, what do you mean?
[21:10] <tommy> I am running aircrack atm, just for security reasons. but Im wondering when do things appear under detected wireless' when I am scanning? If you understand;P network activity maybe?
[21:10] <verb3k> nenolod, sorry if I said anything wrong
[21:10] <CB_> oh
[21:10] <SpookyET> I need an easy script that enables/disables Internet Connection Sharing. Messing with IPTables is complicated and Firestarter does not work.
[21:10] <maxo> hi
[21:10] <maxo> is there a way I can change /var/mail/myusername so that other users can also access my mailbox?
[21:10] <GHOST> hi!
[21:10] <Ryan52> I have ubuntu 6.06 and I can't do a fresh install on this machine. Is there any way for me to get to gutsy without having to go to 6.10, then 7.04, then 7.10?
[21:11] <CB_> well im new with Ubuntu (and linux)
[21:11] <neopsyche> cool
[21:11] <GHOST> me xubuntu
[21:11] <CB_> so i dont really know
[21:11] <GHOST> da best!
[21:11] <ere4si> stefano: the shockwave plugin from here - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:7
[21:11] <neopsyche> CB_ welkom to the linux wereld. ;-)
[21:11] <CB_> ya
[21:11] <neopsyche> lol
[21:11] <neopsyche> ;-)
[21:11] <kbrosnan> ere4si: shockwave is windows only
[21:11] <ere4si> no
[21:12] <CB_> im trying to figure out how to use terminal commands
[21:12] <GHOST> me too im noob
[21:12] <CB_> like copying files
[21:12] <CB_> oh
[21:12] <macd> CB_, well first you type them, to copy a file "cp file file"
[21:12] <kbrosnan> ere4si: yes it is, you linked to Adobe Flash Player a completely different product
[21:12] <kyu_flux> CB_: http://www.ss64.com/bash/
[21:12] <mehrab1131> is there any way to change the panel,s behaviour in gnome?
[21:12] <ere4si> read further down fool
[21:12] <CB_> ok
[21:12] <Neyuth> hi! someone knows how i can see system evens in the conole or watch what is going on?
[21:12] <maxo> CB_: if you ever need documentation for a command, you type: man    followed by the command, eg. man cp
[21:12] <macd> mehrab1131, such as?
[21:13] <Neyuth> just monitorizing events
[21:13] <ifireball> CB_: http://www.linuxcommand.org/
[21:13] <bdancer> hallo
[21:13] <CB_> ok
[21:13] <mehrab1131> to make somthing like kde panel
[21:13] <tommy> 1 question
[21:13] <bdancer> can u help me?
[21:13] <tommy> I am running aircrack atm, just for security reasons. but Im wondering when do things appear under detected wireless' when I am scanning? If you understand;P network activity maybe
[21:13] <GHOST> o daz kool ty!
[21:13] <macd> Neyuth, pop a terminal open type "tail -f /var/log/syslog"
[21:13] <CB_> hey is gnome better than kde
[21:13] <kyu_flux> CB_: that's like asking which religion is better
[21:13] <GHOST> xcfe is better
[21:14] <maxo> lol
[21:14] <GHOST> :)
[21:14] <kyu_flux> CB_: why not try a bunch yourself and then settle on what you like the best
[21:14] <macd> mehrab1131, you can right click a panel and app/remove applets to it, and right click the applet itself once added to move, change its settings
[21:14] <hypn0> fluxbox is better than xfce :-)
[21:14] <verb3k> Neyuth, another way is dmesg or dmesg | tail
[21:14] <CB_> well what is gook in kde
[21:14] <bdancer> I've download ubuntu for 64bit AMD and Intel computers but I cant install it on my q6600... ?
[21:14] <GHOST> tats wat idid
[21:14] <maxo> CB_: try both, then make your own mind up
[21:14] <nenolod> verb3k, patch -p1 < psxim.diff
[21:14] <CB_> ok
[21:14] <GHOST> right
[21:14] <nenolod> verb3k, that's how you use the file i gave you
[21:14] <nenolod> ;p
[21:14] <Neyuth> thanks verb3k just whai i wanted!!
[21:14] <macd> bdancer, are you getting some specific error?
[21:14] <Neyuth> :D
[21:14] <kyu_flux> bdancer: not that i'm the best person here to help, I just installed ubuntu yesterday, but I have a Q6600, too, and it's up
[21:14] <verb3k> nenolod, Thank you
[21:15] <verb3k> nenolod, did you try it? what do you think if so?
[21:15] <bdancer> macd, nothing... its just shutdown my monitor after kernel load... and then nothing
[21:15] <GHOST> (0.o)
[21:15] <verb3k> Neyuth, no problem :)
[21:15] <mehrab1131> macd : I want to change its behaviour. Iwant it to hide when a window is open. I dont mean autohide
[21:15] <mehrab1131> I want it to act like a dock
[21:15] <CB_> i like gnome better
[21:15] <Arvid> I'm trying to transfer some music between my two computers. But for some reason it just goes over the internet which means it's really really solw
[21:15] <bdancer> kyu_flux, do u install 64bit verstion?
[21:15] <Arvid> any idea what to do about that?
[21:15] <mehrab1131> I tried awn but it didnt pleased me
[21:16] <GHOST> gnome is faster than kde
[21:16] <mirdin>  any unbuntu/networking experts round here?
[21:16] <CB_> yup
[21:16] <GHOST> :)
[21:16] <kyu_flux> bdancer: yup
[21:16] <macd> bdancer, does it work as a livecd, rather than installingh?
[21:16] <kyu_flux> bdancer: the problem I had was trying to setup raid
[21:16] <GHOST> yep it works
[21:17] <macd> mehrab1131, I gotcha, Im not sure you can do that, but there are alternatives like awm  to the gnome panel
[21:17] <Montego> dumb chatter. How do I get to off topic chat?
[21:17] <maxo> GHOST: I actually find KDE to be slightly faster
[21:17] <bdancer> macd, when i press "install or load or something" in grub it do nothing after kernel load
[21:17] <CB_> oh
[21:17] <macd> Montego, type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:17] <Montego> ty
[21:17] <CB_> are there other enviroments
[21:17] <GHOST> o mayby got old folk hardware lol
[21:17] <mehrab1131> but I have some problems with awn
[21:17] <mirdin> i read HP is real iffy with ubuntu
[21:17] <macd> bdancer, I'd try the 32bit one for troubleshooting reasons, but I have a feeling it doesnt like a piece of your hardware, OR you just got a bad disc burn
[21:17] <mirdin> anyone know that?

[21:18] <CB_> like what
[21:18] <macd> Montego, take the space out.
[21:18] <kyu_flux> macd: do you know if the alternative disc kernel is different than the regular disc?
[21:18] <mirdin> macd:  i'm learning that
[21:18] <Montego> oops
[21:18] <ifireball> mehrab1131: you mean, right click on panel->properties->auto hide ?
[21:18] <kyu_flux> macd: if it is, I would suggest bdancer try amd64 alternative
[21:18] <bdancer> macd, disk burn is ok, 32bit version works fine.. suse 10.3 64bit works fine but i want ubuntu ))
[21:18] <Flannel> kyu_flux: They install the same kernel
[21:18] <kyu_flux> Flannel: damn
[21:19] <GHOST> anyone got a virus on linux :( ?
[21:19] <mirdin> ifireball:  sorry to disappear, my second machine died!
[21:19] <ifireball> mirdin: oh...
[21:19] <CB_> can you get a virus in linux
[21:19] <Flannel> kyu_flux: Whats your problem?
[21:19] <kyu_flux> Flannel: of course, what do I know, I only installed this yesterday =)
[21:19] <GHOST> i thin so :(
[21:19] <kyu_flux> Flannel: the problem wasn't for me, it was for bdancer
[21:19] <bdancer> kyu_flux, i think they both have the same kernel
[21:19] <GHOST> not in bsd thoug
[21:19] <mirdin> yeah, right at the key moment when i think you were bout to solve me up
[21:19] <kyu_flux> Flannel: my box is up =)
[21:19] <ARAM> HI
[21:19] <mehrab1131> macd: how should I set awn to make it apear in startup?
[21:19] <ifireball> CB_: the theoretical possibility exists, I never heard of it happening to anyone though
[21:19] <Flannel> ah, that explains why your chat history doesnt show anything
[21:19] <GHOST> hey i the!
[21:19] <mehrab1131> and also screenlets
[21:20] <CB_> wow, need to update my security
[21:20] <macd> kyu_flux, they have the same, just different graphics options
[21:20] <Andycasss> how to create a blank file in terminal?
[21:20] <kyu_flux> Flannel: i'm just trying to figure out what I should start doing next
[21:20] <macd> mehrab1131, I dont know anything about awn
[21:20] <CB_> how do i do tha
[21:20] <CB_> that
[21:20] <mirdin> ifireball:  yeah, right when you were about to solve all my problems too, heh
[21:20] <ARAM> again i have tried the method that aedg suggest but still doesn work
[21:20] <macd> mehrab1131, but I think clicking system-->prefs-->sessions you can add it to startup
[21:20] <ARAM> it says that x server can not be...
[21:20] <Flannel> bdancer: What Have you tried so far?  The desktop CD installs, but then it wont boot the installed system? or you cant get the liveCD to boot?
[21:20] <ARAM> what shall i do?
[21:21] <mehrab1131> macd, aha, i should test it
[21:21] <ARAM> any help?
[21:21] <kyu_flux> snap, XMMS! I almost forgot about it!
[21:21] <macd> bdancer, hmm, lets see If I can find you a link to debugging the livecd boot, I think I've seen one then maybe you can get some more info byond it just sits there
[21:21] <mehrab1131> macd, thanks alot
[21:21] <ifireball> mirdin: yeah, you do have one crazy problem there... I'm reluctant to ask this when linux is involved, but did you try rebooting?
[21:21] <raf> Salut à tous, j'ai un disque dur formaté à la base pour windows (en NTFS) sur lequel j'ai installé ubuntu. Je voudrai formaté le tout pour ne réinstaller que seulement ubuntu. Comment dois-je faire en ligne de commande pour formater le tout. Thanks
[21:21] <bdancer> macd, tnx )
[21:21] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Which problem, the blank file or the Xorg problem?

[21:21] <GHOST> non reste lol!!
[21:21] <bdancer> Flannel, it doest go further then kernel load
[21:21] <maxo> raf: fdisk
[21:21] <ifireball> mirdin: I.e. seems to me something is locking your ifcae and we need to kill it somehow
[21:22] <Flannel> bdancer: In the installed system? or the liveCD?
[21:22] <mirdin> ifireball:  yeah, i did. I think it has to do with it being an old HP which i hear is shaky with ubuntu
[21:22] <raf> oui j'y suis allé mais je ne m'y retrouve pas dans tous les forms
[21:22] <Andycasss> how to create a blank file in terminal?
[21:22] <ARAM> Jordan_U: it says x server
[21:22] <macd> Flannel, the livecd
[21:22] <bdancer> Flannel, from install cd
[21:22] <mirdin> ifireball: ifcae? hmm

[21:22] <ubotu> raf: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[21:22] <macd> bdancer, the livecd or the alternate install cd?
[21:22] <mirdin> ifireball: that's a clue, thanks
[21:22] <ifireball> mirdin: iface* == interface
[21:22] <bdancer> macd,  live
[21:22] <Andycasss> Jordan_U: thanks
[21:22] <Flannel> bdancer: Alright, try the alternate CD.
[21:22] <ARAM> Jordan_U: i will type all the error that it give me my graphic card is nvidea geforce
[21:22] <Zaerath> Does anyone know if you can use the normal Cisco VoIP network at a business with Ekiga, or some other VoIP software?
[21:22] <brobostigon> raf: wir verstehen nicht
[21:23] <bdancer> Flannel, they have diffrent kernels?
[21:23] <ARAM> Jordan_U: wait i will type the full massage now
[21:23] <MacTheMad> could someone take a look at these bind configs & tell me what/how I need to fix? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7021d3cb
[21:23] <maxo> raf: si vous mettez le cd d'installation ubuntu, ca formatera tout le disque dur si vous voulez
[21:23] <ifireball> mirdin: maybe try to unload/load the relevant module
[21:23] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Is this the LiveCD or an actual installed system?
[21:23] <mirdin> ifireball: ah, hmm, strange
[21:23] <GHOST> OUI C CA
[21:23] <mirdin> ifireball: i think I'm going to have another shot at it but I'll need help cause I'm new to this
[21:23] <ARAM> Jordan_U: it is live cd i want to boot and then install ubuntu on my labtop
[21:23] <Jordan_U> ARAM, There is probably no need for the whole output, and you can put the output on a thumb drive so you don't have to retype it all
[21:23] <Flannel> bdancer: no, but a lot of people have issues with the liveCD not working, but the installed system works fine.  Alternate CD will allow you to install the system
[21:24] <ifireball> mirdin: k. paste lsmod
[21:24] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Have you tried booting into safe graphics mode?
[21:24] <mirdin> ifireball: i wouldn't know which module or where
[21:24] <raf> maxo, OK merci je teste
[21:24] <bdancer> Flannel, tnx )
[21:24] <GHOST> salut :)
[21:24] <maxo> raf: bonne chance
[21:24] <macd> good like bdancer :)
[21:24] <kyu_flux> amd64 install - rhythmbox is my "preferred" multimedia application but opening a MP3 in the file browser opens up Totem
[21:24] <bdancer> macd, )
[21:24] <kyu_flux> any ideas?
[21:24] <maxo> GHOST: vous etes francais alors?
[21:24] <GHOST> heu oui!
[21:24] <ifireball> mirdin: k. paste lsmod, also lspci
[21:24] <bdancer> and what is "OEM install option"?
[21:24] <RioCunliffe> Heyy im trying to install adobe flash player and when i run the installer i get a massage Please enter the installation path of the Mozilla, Netscape,
[21:24] <RioCunliffe> or Opera browser (i.e., /usr/lib/mozilla): " and no matter what dir i put it it tells me it is wrong :S can anyone help???
[21:24] <ARAM> Jordan_U: it syas fails to start the x server (your graphical intergace)
[21:24] <maxo> GHOST: ou en france?
[21:25] <macd> kyu_flux, thats due to the totem-gstreamer browser plugin
[21:25] <GHOST> a lyon :)
[21:25] <mirdin> ifireball: i gotta find a second monitor now to do more because my laptop is dead and the ubuntu box is off
[21:25] <ifireball> mirdin: btw we're talking wired here not wireless right?
[21:25] <Jordan_U> bdancer, An option for OEM's like Dell, you probably don't want it :)
[21:25] <mirdin> ifireball: wired
[21:25] <mirdin> ifireball: although I have a wireless card in there too
[21:25] <Flannel> bdancer: It allows people who sell computers to install and configure ubuntu before they sell them, and then allows the end user to setup his language, timezone, username, etc.
[21:25] <mirdin> ifireball: buut, i figure walk first
[21:25] <ARAM> Jordan_U: and then it says it is likely that it is not set up correctly
[21:25] <bdancer> Jordan_U, its like automate install>
[21:25] <kyu_flux> macd: recommend to uninstall it?
[21:25] <kbrosnan> RioCunliffe: /usr/lib/firefox
[21:26] <macd> kyu_flux, not if you want it to play in your browser
[21:26] <ifireball> mirdin: yeah
[21:26] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Again, have you tried safe graphics mode ?
[21:26] <RioCunliffe> kbrosnan: cheers ill try it :)
[21:26] <ifireball> mirdin: btw did it ever work with any Linux?
[21:26] <ARAM> Jordan_U: no
[21:26] <GHOST> gotta learn about using irc chat lol!
[21:26] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Please try that, it is an option when you first boot the LiveCD
[21:26] <ARAM> ok
[21:26] <GHOST> yup
[21:27] <kyu_flux> macd: what do you recommend?
[21:27] <macd> kyu_flux, rhytmbox and totem use the same backend to play your mp3's so its possible uninstalling totem could do thet, but there must be a setting somewhere
[21:27] <Arvid> anyone who are familiar with "route" ?
[21:27] <MacTheMad> can someone take a look at my bind configs & tell me what I'm doing wrong? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7021d3cb
[21:27] <ARAM> Jordan_U:  in the guide i read it says i need to press f6 and then type breakl=top and then hit return
[21:27] <macd> kyu_flux, let me dig around for a minute
[21:27] <ARAM> Jordan_U: shall i do that?
[21:27] <kyu_flux> macd: right on, thanks
[21:27] <GHOST> rythmbox is nice buddy
[21:27] <ifireball> Arvid: yes
[21:27] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Can you link to the guide?
[21:27] <bdancer> Flannel, macd, Jordan_U u greate tnx )
[21:27] <FlyingSquirrel32> I'm on gutsy and my USB mouse and USB flash drive only work if they were plugged in when I boot. If I plug them in once it's already running, I get just a flash of light out of my mouse, and then nothing. Any ideas?
[21:28] <bdancer> kyu_flux, u2 )) tnx
[21:28] <ARAM> Jordan_U: wait
[21:28] <cyzie> how to list the content of a deb package?
[21:28] <kyu_flux> bdancer: no problem
[21:28] <kyu_flux> bdancer: hope it works out for you (i'm new, too)
[21:28] <macd> cyzie, dpkg -L package
[21:28] <kaddict> hi there
[21:28] <brobostigon> !gdebi
[21:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gdebi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:28] <GHOST> hi !
[21:28] <Flannel> cyzie: dpkg -c package
[21:28] <macd> oops!
[21:29] <maxo> is it possible to specify the password when running a program through su, eg. su someuser <somethingherespecifyingpassword> -c somecommand ?
[21:29] <Arvid> ifireball: I'm trying to transfer files to my laptop but for some reason the go all they way out on the web and back. I had this problem before and last time a friend fixed it by running some route command which directed de traffic directly to the laptop
[21:29] <kaddict> could anyone tell me how to launch an app on gnome's virtual desktop 2 on boot?
[21:29] <GHOST> hey merry x mas all !
[21:29] <macd> maxo, if your user is in sudo group, you can add a line to sudoers and have it not ask for the password when it runs
[21:29] <Flannel> maxo: What are you trying to do?
[21:29] <Arvid> ifireball: (both computers (and my modem) are just plugged into a switch)
[21:29] <ARAM> Jordan_U: i dont know where is the link but i have coiped the instruction to work file do you want me to pasted here ?
[21:30] <Jordan_U> ARAM, NO
[21:30] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Use pastebin instead
[21:30] <ARAM> Jordan_U: what shall i do then ?
[21:30] <Jordan_U> !pastebin | ARAM
[21:30] <maxo> Flannel: I need a php script to be able to access local mailboxes, such as /var/mail/myusername , but I'm having permissions problems
[21:30] <ubotu> ARAM: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[21:30] <macd> maxo, so something like "%admin ALL= NOPASSWD: /path/to/run"  in /etc/sudoers
[21:30] <larry> hi, i need help for a network scanner, someone can help me?
[21:30] <cyzie> dpkg -c
[21:30] <macd> maxo, but I wouldnt dream of giving a webapp access to like that
[21:30] <GHOST> is kevin mitnick alive?
[21:30] <macd> larry, nmap? etherape?
[21:30] <Flannel> maxo: You'll want to make those mailboxes read by the user that runs the php script.
[21:30] <maxo> macd: well only one local mailbox really
[21:31] <ifireball> Arvid: what's the IPs and subnet maskes of all computers involved?
[21:31] <FlyingSquirrel32> Arvid: curious, how do you know it's going out to the internet?
[21:31] <take0n> guys please help me.. Ubuntu 7.10 KDE how do I change themes? I downloaded emerald I downloaded themes from kde-look.org, I imported those themes in emerald (I see them in the list) but.. nothing happens when I double click!!
[21:31] <Jordan_U> GHOST, AFIK yes, why don't you wikipedia him?
[21:31] <larry> hi macd
[21:31] <GHOST> o ok!
[21:31] <maxo> Flannel: I've set the mailbox as readable by others, but when a new message is received, the permissions resort to only allowing the user to read it
[21:31] <Arvid> FlyingSquirrel32: I'm getting ~100kb/s which is the same rate I can upload with
[21:31] <macd> kyu_flux, I can't find anything maybe someone else here can help you, sorry!
[21:31] <Arvid> ifireball: I'm not sure :)
[21:31] <Flannel> maxo: Ah, right.  Change the mask that new mail is created with in the mail program.  I imagine thats doable.
[21:31] <kyu_flux> macd: no problem, thanks for your help
[21:31] <kaddict> any advice about starting an application on a specific gnome desktop?
[21:31] <macd> hi larry
[21:31] <Jordan_U> take0n, Are you using emerald as the window decorator ( it's not the default in KDE or compiz ) ?
[21:32] <larry> i have a multifunction printer on a multi function print server
[21:32] <quaal> okayyy
[21:32] <ifireball> Arvid: both comps are Ubuntu?
[21:32] <quaal> i just updated to 7.10
[21:32] <maxo> Flannel: I think the mail is just received by the mail server on the computer
[21:32] <quaal> and i have no window title bars
[21:32] <GHOST> sry but i can i change a theme on xubuntu?
[21:32] <Arvid> ifireball: kubuntu, so yes
[21:32] <quaal> something wrong with compiz
[21:32] <take0n> jordan_U I know it's not but the themes I found in kde-look are for emerald so I installed it
[21:32] <larry> the printer is ok
[21:32] <take0n> what do you suggest?
[21:32] <take0n> (those theme are .emerald filetypes)
[21:32] <GHOST> sry but i can i change a theme on xubuntu?
[21:32] <maxo> Flannel: and what do you mean by mask?
[21:32] <Jordan_U> quaal, Try turning off desktop effects in System -> Preferences -> Appearance
[21:33] <Jordan_U> take0n, But are you using Emerald?
[21:33] <Odd-rationale> Is there a way I can burn a audio cd to an ISO?
[21:33] <ifireball> Arvid: ok, paste results of "ipconfig" and "route -n" from both comps to pastebin (put results from both commands from one comp in the same paste plz)
[21:33] <quaal> Jordan_U, ah there it is
[21:33] <take0n> jordan_U I can't use emerald
[21:33] <quaal> thanks couldnt find it
[21:33] <ifireball> !paste | Arvid
[21:33] <ubotu> Arvid: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[21:33] <Montego> Will sudo apt-get remove All the system updates from 2 days ago?
[21:33] <Flannel> maxo: Right, but that still goes through a program.  A mask sets the permissions on files created by that program.  Lots of servers have configurations for it.  I'm unsure if the mail program youre using does, but its certainly worth a look.
[21:33] <take0n> thats the prob window decoration doesnt change
[21:33] <FlyingSquirrel32> could someone help me get my usb mouse to work on gutsy? It works only if it's plugged in when I boot
[21:33] <take0n> as it supposed to do
[21:33] <take0n> and I don't know how to change themes..
[21:34] <Slart> Odd-rationale: you can make a copy of the cd to a iso-file... was that what you mean?
[21:34] <ARAM> Jordan_U: it works in safe mode
[21:34] <take0n> its driving me crazy
[21:34] <Arvid> ifireball: got it - hang on
[21:34] <quaal> Jordan_U, now.. any idea what is wrong with compiz-fusion? it was working fine on 7.04 using compiz
[21:34] <maxo> Flannel: the other problem is I'm not the admin of this box (though I can ssh to it), so I have to work with what I've got.
[21:34] <ARAM> Jordan_U: it can boot in saFe mode can i install it in safe mode ?
[21:34] <Odd-rationale> Slart: No, I want to burn some .wav files to an iso.
[21:35] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Then I would install in safe mode then use System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager to get the right drivers for your card AFTER you have restarted into the installed system
[21:35] <Slart> Odd-rationale: oh.. you want to create a iso-file.. instead of burning the an actual cd
[21:35] <GHOST> sry but how can i change a theme on xubuntu?
[21:35] <Arvid> ifireball: the desktop:
[21:35] <Odd-rationale> Slart: Exactly.
[21:35] <MikeH> I have a problem, I restarted X, and I got a message saying that no valid graphics driver could be found (even though I've been using the ATI restricted one for weeks)
[21:35] <Arvid> ifireball: http://pastebin.ca/827591
[21:35] <MikeH> Now I'm stuck in 800x600
[21:35] <MikeH> any ideas?
[21:35] <Jordan_U> MikeH, How did you install the ATI driver?
[21:35] <GHOST> its ur drivers
[21:35] <ARAM> ok wait a sec
[21:35] <MikeH> Jordan_U, through restricted drivers.
[21:36] <Montego>  "sudo apt-get remove" Will this remove all the system updates from 2 days ago?
[21:36] <Jordan_U> Montego, No
[21:36] <Montego> Dam LOL
[21:36] <Montego> what about --Purge?
[21:36] <MacTheMad> hello? anyone? can someone please take a look at these bind configs & tell me what's wrong? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7021d3cb
[21:36] <ARAM> Jordan_U: in safe mode resoulation is so big 800x600 i can not access the next button
[21:36] <Slart> Odd-rationale: I'm pretty sure you can do this.. I just don't know how.. perhaps cdrecord (newest version is named something else) has something..
[21:36] <Jordan_U> Montego, No
[21:37] <Montego> Dam Strike 2
[21:37] <ARAM> Jordan_U: and also i can not change the resoulation
[21:37] <Odd-rationale> Slart: I read here that you can mount an iso as writable: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountIso
[21:37] <take0n> so Jordan_U what should I do?
[21:37] <FlyingSquirrel32> Odd-rationale: Places->CD Creator.   Put your .wav files there and click Write to disc.
[21:37] <raf> c'est quoi la ligne de commande pour savoir si c'est un 32 ou 64 bit ??
[21:37] <Jordan_U> ARAM, Yeah, they really need to deal with that, you can move the window up by holding alt and dragging the window
[21:37] <Odd-rationale> FlyingSquirrel32: Will that be data or audio?
[21:37] <Kl4m> #ubuntu-fr
[21:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !fr > raf
[21:37] <larry> macd, you are there?
[21:38] <GHOST> hey bonne vacances aux lycéens :)
[21:38] <ARAM> Jordan_U: i didnt get it say that again
[21:38] <FlyingSquirrel32> Odd-rationale: you said wav files, so I assumed data, which do you want?
[21:38] <macd> larry, yes can I help you?
[21:38] <Odd-rationale> FlyingSquirrel32: I wanted audio.
[21:38] <larry> i hope
[21:38] <Sindri> Hi, I need some help with a first time install.
[21:38] <ARAM> Jordan_U: it doesnt work
[21:38] <Jordan_U> take0n, If you want to use an emerald theme then you need to use emerald as your window decorator, that also means that you will need a composited window manager like compiz or xcompmgr
[21:38] <GHOST> wat is it
[21:38] <larry> i need toconfigure a network scanner
[21:38] <Jordan_U> ARAM, What doesn't work?
[21:38] <Slart> Odd-rationale: mkisofs can create iso-files.. don't know how to convince to create an audio-cd instead of a regular data cd
[21:38] <take0n> ooh thanks!!
[21:38] <ARAM> Jordan_U: i hold alt but nothing happen hold alt and press up arrow
[21:39] <MikeH> how can I get ubuntu to reconfigure my display?
[21:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart: I think he wants to encode wavs to create audio cd's
[21:39] <Jordan_U> ARAM, No, you need to hold alt then click on the window and drag it up
[21:39] <ARAM> Jordan_U: i can not move the position of windows
[21:39] <butcherbird> MikeH: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[21:39] <Slart> Jack_Sparrow: he wants to create a cd-image.. not burn the actual cd
[21:39] <FlyingSquirrel32> Odd-rationale: Oh, let me see.
[21:39] <macd> larry, what do mean by configure? you mean use?
[21:39] <butcherbird> wait just create an image of cd? cat /dev/cdrom > file.iso or use dd
[21:39] <Jordan_U> Odd-rationale, I think k3b will let you do that
[21:39] <ARAM> Jordan_U: but there is no place to drag it up it stick to the panel
[21:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart: HIs questions are not well worded
[21:40] <Slart> Jack_Sparrow: a cd-image that, if burnt to a cd, would give him an audio cd.. at least that's how I understood it
[21:40] <GHOST> lol extropiens sux
[21:40] <Arvid> ifireball: sorry it took some time. here they are: desktop: http://pastebin.ca/827591 laptop: http://pastebin.ca/827597
[21:40] <MikeH> can anyone also tell me what driver an at x800xt should be using?
[21:40] <Odd-rationale> Jordan_U: OK I'll take a look.
[21:40] <macd> MikeH, fglrx, or ati.
[21:40] <bdancer> guys!!! sorry for my panic )) i just need to wait for about a minute and then install continues greate!! )) tnx for all ))
[21:40] <Odd-rationale> Sorry for the confusion.
[21:40] <butcherbird> MikeH: or vesa in case of badness
[21:40] <Jordan_U> ARAM, It will work, just try it ( you can also hide the panels if you want, but that is not neccisary )
[21:41] <andrej> Hello, is there an easy way to retrieve packages for a version I don't have installed? I've installed my brother in law a dapper 6.06.01 server (running 7.04 myself). He's on dial-up, and I'd like to d/l the packages he needs to get on my broadband and burn them onto CD
[21:41] <Montego> If I post a launchpad topic in here could someone check it out and let me know what i need to do to get it taken seriously by Ubuntu developers? Or is this not that chat to do this?
[21:41] <macd> MikeH, if you've recently upgraded to a new version of ubuntu, you may have to reconfigure your xserver
[21:41] <MacTheMad> am I an unwanted stepchild or something?
[21:41] <take0n> ok Jordan I installed xcompmgr
[21:41] <take0n> what do I do next?
[21:41] <bdancer> macd: it all ok ))
[21:41] <ARAM> Jordan_U: i have hide the up and down pannel and the try to drag but there is no place for mouse to go upper
[21:41] <ifireball> Arvid: what a mess... both machines get real internet addresses, and on different subnets, no wonder you need to mess with routs
[21:41] <macd> Montego, post the url, maybe its not even beebn looked at
[21:41] <Sindri> I have never used linix before. downloaded latest version and burned. when installing it gets to 21%. says loading libc6-vdeb and zreezes. tried redownloading and burned another copy, but it does the same thing.  trying to run it on a dell server 933 P3 x2 with mirrored raid
[21:41] <Jordan_U> take0n, I think it's "emerald --replace"
[21:41] <Slart> Odd-rationale: Brasero lets you chose if you want to burn to a cd or to a image
[21:41] <ARAM> Jordan_U: i can drag it down but not up
[21:41] <larry> please, someone can help me with a network scanner?
[21:41] <Jordan_U> take0n, To start emerald
[21:41] <Slart> Odd-rationale: and it handles audio cd's
[21:41] <Montego> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemRestore
[21:41] <Arvid> ifireball: I don't know any thing about networking :) I just plug them in
[21:41] <MikeH> macd, I'm still on gutsy, as originally installed
[21:42] <Odd-rationale> Slart: OK Thanks for that!
[21:42] <kyu_flux> anyone: totem visualization broken after xmms install
[21:42] <MikeH> however there were alot of updates that I installed previous to this happening actually
[21:42] <ifireball> Arvid: you should real consider getting a router and setting up a real home network, it'll be more secure too...
[21:42] <kyu_flux> anyone: any ideas how to fix the vis?
[21:42] <bdancer> Jordan_U: no need to download alternate )) everything works )
[21:42] <GHOST> lol how can i awser to a dude here?
[21:42] <take0n> do you mean I should type xcompmgr emerald --replace ?
[21:42] <take0n> in terminal?
[21:42] <macd> larry,what are you trying todo? use a network scanner, like nmap? launch a terminal type "sudo apt-get install nmap" then type "man nmap" to see howto use it.
[21:42] <MikeH> How can I get ubuntu to automatically configure my display as it did before.
[21:42] <ifireball> Arvid: anycase let me see about routs...
[21:42] <macd> MikeH, and it just magically stopped working, or?
[21:42] <MikeH> macd, well, it was fine, until I restarted X a minute ago
[21:42] <macd> MikeH, you can run from console, "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to reconfigure it
[21:43] <MikeH> macd, That requires input from me, ubuntu originally configured my X server automatically, this must be possible again.
[21:43] <macd> MikeH, if you applied the updates from earlier, and didnt reboot only restarted X you might have a problem till you reboot
[21:43] <butcherbird> MikeH: just select driver then enter for defaults on everything you dont know the answer to
[21:43] <larry> i need help for a image scanner
[21:43] <Jordan_U> ARAM, OK, right click the top and / or bottom panel and choose preferences, there should be an option to add hide buttons to the panel
[21:43] <FlyingSquirrel32> Odd-rationale: Wikipedia says in the second paragraph that the .iso format doesn't support audio CD's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_image
[21:43] <macd> MikeH, yes, just tell it your card, then hit enter throughout the rest of the process
[21:43] <MikeH> brb, I'll restart X, and macd, I have rebooted
[21:43] <staykovmarin> hi, i have a computer that cannnot be connected to the internet, but needs the restricted packages. is there a way to get them off the cd?
[21:44] <ifireball> Arvid: on the desktop: sudo route add -host <IP_ADDRESS> dev eth0
[21:44] <FlyingSquirrel32> Odd-rationale: Ever try imaging an audio cd you already have?
[21:44] <Jordan_U> take0n, No, likely "xcompmgr --replace && emerald --replace" But that is just a guess
[21:44] <larry> macd, i need help for a ethernet image scanner
[21:44] <KiD_ChAoS> OK, i got my Ubuntu machine plugged into my 42 Inch LCD flat screen, but it when i do that it changes my resolution to like 800 X 600. does anyone know how to fix this
[21:44] <tuxke> 1~q
[21:44] <GHOST> ENTROPY HERE
[21:44] <ifireball> Arvid: no w8
[21:44] <Odd-rationale> FlyingSquirrel32: That is interesting. I'll have to try and find out.
[21:44] <andrej> staykovmarin : which CD?
[21:44] <macd> Jordan_U, they also have that compiz-fusion tray icon that does that with a right click
[21:44] <Arvid> ifireball: too late :/
[21:44] <staykovmarin> andrej: not the live one, the other one
[21:44] <ranok> ok, here's my problem
[21:45] <quaal> ownt
[21:45] <ifireball> Arvid: ok, it was ok
[21:45] <MikeH> macd, I think I've figured it
[21:45] <Arvid> ifireball: well - now I'm transfering with 1megabyte/second
[21:45] <Kernel> hmm ive got a very large file(30 gigs) and i went to rm -rf the file...when i ran rm -rf it was done in like 1 second.....that much data takes longer to delete....so i did a ls and it stll using all 30 gigs of space
[21:46] <MikeH> I think ubuntu has defaulted back to xorg, instead of xgl.
[21:46] <FlyingSquirrel32> Odd-rationale: I never knew that either.
[21:46] <macd> larry, if you worded your questions where I could understand them, I could possibly help, and there is no cuh thing as an ethernet image scanner
[21:46] <lesshaste_>  any idea where I can download some legal flac audio?
[21:46] <take0n> Jason isn't there a way to do this throu a tool not through terminal?
[21:46] <Kernel> lol clonex is for 13 year olds...go flood somewhere else
[21:46] <MikeH> macd, I'll write that again with the mass join/quit, I think the problem is that it's defaulted back to xorg instead of xgl
[21:46] <Montego> what the . How do I stop this flooding
[21:46] <SuperQ> lesshaste_: linnrecords
[21:46] <GHOST> WTFF
[21:46] <quaal> dddddddddddbags
[21:46] <macd> oh my
[21:46] <ifireball> Arvid: on the laptop: sudo route add -host <IP_ADDRESS> dev eth0
[21:46] <GHOST> IS TCP FLOODING WORK HERE,
[21:46] <macd> help!
[21:46] <ifireball> Arvid: on the laptop: sudo route add -host <IP_ADDRESS> dev eth0
[21:46] <GHOST> lol
[21:46] <macd> MikeH, xorg and xgl are not the same thing
[21:46] <MikeH> Montego, turn off join/quit notifications
[21:46] <macd> they work with each other
[21:46] <macd> MikeH, xorg and xgl dont do the same thing, you use both.
[21:46] <Montego> ok
[21:46] <lesshaste_> SuperQ, thx...checking it out
[21:46] <MikeH> macd, ok, fair enough.
[21:46] <Arvid> ifireball: right
[21:47] <Invert314> are there any Ubuntu users here who are extremely knowledge able with regards to networking and startup daemons?
[21:47] <verb3k> what's happening in this channel?
[21:47] <Kernel> how can i reclaim this 30 gigs?
[21:47] <MikeH> I'm sure its related to this though. and after running reconfigure, nothing has changed macd
[21:47] <Kernel> i cant find the file anywhere on my puter
[21:47] <macd> MikeH, if you want to fix it, use the command I gave you earlier, I can even walk you through the questions
[21:47] <macd> MikeH, ohhh
[21:47] <staykovmarin> any ideas on how to install them?
[21:47] <KiD_ChAoS> OK, i got my Ubuntu machine plugged into my 42 Inch LCD flat screen, but it when i do that it changes my resolution to like 800 X 600. does anyone know how to fix this
[21:47] <thinh> where is the gdm resolution stored at?
[21:47] <Odd-rationale> FlyingSquirrel32: Which should i try first? Burn my "audio iso" to disk and see if it plays and standard CD players? Or create an image of an existing cd?
[21:47] <ifireball> Arvid: essentially its: sudo route add -host <IP address of other machine here> dev eth0
[21:47] <radioaktivstorm> I have a question why does my gksu respond so slowly when i input my password?
[21:47] <MikeH> macd, I'm quite capable of going through x config, but give me a minute, I just re-enabled restricted driver, rebooting
[21:47] <lesshaste_> SuperQ, I meant for free.. i just want to test a flac tool!
[21:47] <quaal> anyone have a link/guide for getting the titlebars back on windows in compiz-fusion? it was working fine in compiz on 7.04 before i upgraded
[21:47] <Invert314> are there any Ubuntu users here who are extremely knowledge able with regards to networking and startup daemons?
[21:48] <Arvid> ifireball: what does it actually do?
[21:48] <ifireball> Arvid: you see the IP address when running "ifconfig"
[21:48] <macd> MikeH, what does "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver" tell you
[21:48] <snarkyFish> Anyone else using ubu + vmware and having network problems?

[21:49] <RandyboY> Im having a problem with my wireless nic. When shutting down it hangs on "stopping wpa_supplicant interfaces" or something. _And_ cupsys hangs the machine in boot... Whats this? Any known problem?
[21:49] <ifireball> Arvid: it tells it that despite the fact that the IP addresses make it look otherwise, the specified machine is connected directly or through a switch to the eth0 network card
[21:49] <staykovmarin> andrej: i dont have a dvd burner :(
[21:49] <Arvid> ifireball: got it - I'll write it down this time. ...untill I get a router
[21:50] <staykovmarin> i only need mp3 support, the rest i can take care of later
[21:50] <ziyax> staykovmarin, try medibuntu
[21:50] <andrej> staykovmarin :  I was thinking about the bits where it talks about adding the media with packages to your sources.list
[21:51] <andrej> staykovmarin : if the packages from restricted were on the CD they should show up in your package manager then
[21:51] <andrej> If they're not - tought luck
[21:51] <andrej> tough
[21:51] <staykovmarin> well i added the cd as a repo
[21:51] <staykovmarin> and it still wants to download them
[21:52] <andrej> Did you add it at the top of the list?
[21:52] <Jordan_U> !offline | staykovmarin
[21:52] <ubotu> staykovmarin: If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://apt.byethost14.com/
[21:52] <scragar> staykovmarin: if the files on the CD then it'll use the CD, otherwise it uses the net
[21:52] <Arvid> ifireball: however, now it's transfering with about 3.5MByte/s which is acceptable here. but shouldn't it be able to go with ~10MB/s
[21:53] <ifireball> Arvid: what are you transferring with? the actual speed depends on many factors

[21:54] <ARAM> Jordan_U: what shall do make boot and swap primary and rest like home and root logical?
[21:55] <staykovmarin> okay so after i generate teh download script, and download them, do i just install them indivigually on the target machine?

[21:55] <ARAM> Jordan_U: or just i need one primary ?
[21:56] <RandyboY> How do i "ignore" og "jump over" the startup of cupsd?
[21:56] <zelda`> in windows it was tools - options -,- why was it changed
[21:56] <kbrosnan> zelda`: visit the page you want and drag the icon in the addres bar to the home icon
[21:56] <KiD_ChAoS> ok scragar thank you
[21:56] <ifireball> Arvid: so you're coping over ssh, its not very fast, so the speeds you're getting are normal for a 100mbit network
[21:56] <Arvid> ifireball: what should i then use? ftp?
[21:56] <Jack_Sparrow> MikeH: sudo dpkg is how it is done, there is no automagic script
[21:57] <ARAM> Jordan_U: any help?
[21:57] <MikeH> Jack_Sparrow, I certainly didn't make any input to xorg-config
[21:57] <ifireball> Arvid: you may get better results with NFS, but it may not be worth the trouble of setting up, it may also be a security risk in your case since your computers are on the real internet and not behind any kind of firewall
[21:57] <MikeH> and if this was the case Jack_Sparrow, why is it yielding different results now?
[21:57] <vincenz> Hello, this is a bit OT, but anyone that is familiar with internal laptop hds?  I bought a new one to relace my current ne, since my current one is breaking.  I have an external case. However, taking out my old harddrive, it has this flat divider with connectors on both sides so it does not fit in the casing.  That being said, the new harddrive has unique pins, will this fit in the laptop?
[21:57] <Montego> ifireball have you had time to check out the url I posted?
[21:57] <Jack_Sparrow> MikeH: I am aware of that, but there is no stand alone script to configure that.
[21:57] <Arvid> ifireball: okey - I'll just let it be as it is now then
[21:58] <ifireball> Arvid: FTP will most probably be slower

[22:05] <Grandslammaster> i just installed apache how do i get it working
[22:05] <nosrednaekim> !LAMP
[22:05] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[22:05] <zelda`> seriously how do I make netstat only show internet connections
[22:05] <mitchp> ARAM: I believe you want primary for everything except swap
[22:05] <Invert314> mitchp, i am at /mnt/hda1/etc/rc2.d
[22:05] <nosrednaekim> zelda`: -n I think.
[22:05] <zelda`> klol ty
[22:05] <zelda`> nope
[22:06] <ifireball> mitchp: that would be just the opposite of what you'd want
[22:06] <Jimmy_saint> can not install ATI driver, getting error message: The software source for the package xorg-driver-fglrx  is not enabled.
[22:06] <ARAM> mitchp: could you please explain why swap do not need primary ?because when i create swap as primary then it says the rest of the hard drive are unusable
[22:06] <mitchp> Invert314: hmm, I thought there was a networking script there that you could disable temporarily to stop that error, however that would also stop you from having a network connection.  I'm thinking you need to reinstall network-manager
[22:06] <Grandslammaster> how do i fugure out my websights ip
[22:06] <ARAM> if i have 2gb ram what is the best choise to creat e swap
[22:06] <ARAM> 4gb?
[22:07] <ifireball> ARAM: if you can avoid using extended partitions (e.g. use less then 5) by all means do so
[22:07] <Acxty> HI, I have a movie in avi that I want to convert it to dvd format. Is there any tool for that on debian or ubuntu?
[22:07] <ARAM> because often is double of am
[22:07] <Invert314> mitchp, how would i reinstall networkmanager?
[22:07] <bundagan> is there anything better than avidemux for editing videos?
[22:07] <Slart> ARAM: ye old books says twice the ram.. so 4 GB
[22:07] <bundagan> why doesn't ubuntu come with a video editor by default?
[22:07] <Slart> ARAM: but ye old books are getting old.. it might have changed
[22:07] <scragar> Grandslammaster: from a terminal ping it, it shows what it works the IP to be
[22:07] <macd> bundagan, you can install one from synaptic.
[22:07] <nosrednaekim> zelda`: no clue then
[22:07] <butcherbird> ARAM: swap isnt a big deal these days also you can format a swap file and use that
[22:07] <ARAM> Slart: what shall i do the 2gb?
[22:08] <butcherbird> ARAM: er create a swap file
[22:08] <Slart> ARAM: I'd do 4GB
[22:08] <scragar> Acxty: Devede is perfect for the job
[22:08] <ToddEDM> nosrednaekim:  gparted is just sitting there Scanning all Devices.....................................taking forever
[22:08] <mneisen> Hello, can anybody guess the solution to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=646827 ? Thanks in advance!
[22:08] <Jack_Sparrow> butcherbird: IT is still best for the average user to create a swap partition
[22:08] <Acxty> thanks
[22:08] <ziyax> Jimmy_saint, try to use Envy
[22:08] <ARAM> Slart: why i can not create swap as primary ?
[22:08] <mitchp> Invert314: You would need to download the .deb package for it onto your hard drive while using the liveCD, then disable the networking script so it'll boot, then apt-get remove network-manager.  Then double click the .deb package to reinstall it.    Let me go look at the debian site
[22:08] <ifireball> ARAM: primary/extended has to do with the way dos-compatible partitions work on PC, technically its very ugly, though not that important
[22:08] <Grandslammaster> how do i ping it
[22:08] <Jack_Sparrow> ziyax: bad idea.. envy is evil
[22:08] <nosrednaekim> ToddEDM: let it run.... if it never starts, do it from the command line with cfdisk
[22:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Jimmy_saint: DOnt use envy
[22:08] <Slart> ARAM: you can only have 4 primary partitions.. that could be it?
[22:08] <ziyax> Jack_Sparrow, not for me i'm happy with it
[22:09] <scragar> ToddEDM: fdisk is faster, although it is a little more likly to delete things
[22:09] <Zerhash> how do i get the nvidia driver working? anyone?
[22:09] <Jack_Sparrow> !worksforme > ziyax
[22:09] <ziyax> haha^^
[22:09] <Grandslammaster> scragar: how do i ping it
[22:09] <ActySofts> hello all
[22:09] <ToddEDM> scragar:  i want the whole thing wiped
[22:09] <ifireball> ARAM the more important factor is WHERE the partitions are on the disk, the closer they are to the beginning the faster they work, so you want / (root) and swap as close to the beginning as possible
[22:09] <Invert314> thank you mitchp
[22:09] <scragar> Grandslammaster: from a teminal type "ping URL"
[22:10] <Grandslammaster> i dont know the url
[22:10] <ActySofts> k3b says me that the charset is ANSI_X3.4-1968 and that it shouldn't be like that
[22:10] <Grandslammaster> right now it is an ip but i dont know it
[22:10] <ActySofts> it suggests me to check if the LC* eviro variables are set, how?
[22:10] <mitchp> Invert314: I would think there'd be a way to reinstall it from the data on the LiveCD but that's over my head
[22:10] <Grandslammaster> i just installed apache
[22:10] <zelda`> is initrf.img important or can I delete it
[22:10] <ARAM> ifireball: ok i mean i have external hard drive which is 80 gb and i want to install ubuntu on it
[22:10] <zelda`> * initrd.img
[22:10] <head____________> zelda`: why would you delete it>
[22:11] <head____________> ?
[22:11] <Invert314> mitchp, this livecd isn't ubuntu, it's elivecd
[22:11] <ranok> zelda`: keep it
[22:11] <ifireball> ARAM: ok?
[22:11] <zelda`> to free space
[22:11] <Grandslammaster> i know it will start with 65.xx.xxx.xxx
[22:11] <mitchp> Invert314: Oh, ok
[22:11] <scragar> ToddEDM: then choose fdisk, but fdisk unlike gparted doesn't build lists of tasks, it does them as you choose to, so if your planning on setting up something complicated use gparted
[22:11] <ARAM> ifireball: but the problem is that i have to ntfs partiton which is my personal thing on it and i dont want to use it
[22:11] <ranok> zelda`: it's the initial ram image
[22:11] <Zerhash> anyone know how to get the nvidia driver going on ubuntu
[22:11] <head____________> zelda`: to free <10M space?
[22:11] <bundagan> how can i quickly uninstall all games?
[22:11] <ARAM> ifireball: but ubuntu want to use the as /boot
[22:11] <zelda`> ok what can I get rid of to clear about 200MB of space
[22:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Invert314: Elive caused me nothing but grief.. no support what so ever...
[22:11] <head____________> zelda`: the porno.
[22:12] <zelda`> I don't have any
[22:12] <ifireball> ARAM: you don't need a /boot, just make "/", "/home" ans swap
[22:12] <ranok> zelda`: /var/cache/apt/archives/*
[22:12] <ifireball> and*
[22:12] <ARAM> ifireball: i dont know what to do because they are to partiton ntfs at the end of hard and each are 20gb and i just wan to use another 40 gb of hard and just leave them without making any change to them
[22:12] <ranok> Zerhash: the OSS one, or the official Nvidia one?
[22:12] <ActySofts> k3b complains about the charset being ANSI_X3.4-1968, saying that data projects could get corrupted. how can I fix it?
[22:12] <mitchp> Invert314: Try this before anything else:  boot into safe mode (terminal) and run apt-get update then apt-get upgrade
[22:12] <vincenz> ok, I debootstrapped onto a new harddrive that is in a USB case.  Installed grub on it and installed all the necessary packages.  how would I now replace this with my laptop hd, do I -need- a livecd to finalize or will it work?
[22:12] <ifireball> ARAM: then you'd have only 4 partitions and all can be primary
[22:12] <nosrednaekim> zelda`: "sudo apt-get autoclean"
[22:12] <Tyczek> there is available 7.12 Ati driver
[22:12] <Invert314> mitchp, i did that already
[22:12] <fwaokda> if AWN isn't in the repos is there another way of getting it?
[22:12] <zelda`> LOL this download is at 69% done
[22:12] <scragar> Grandslammaster: wait, you just installed apache? then run ifconfig, the IP is listed after "inet addr:"
[22:12] <head____________> zelda`: as a rule, don't touch anything that lives in {/,/boot,/root,/usr,/var} and is owned by root
[22:12] <Zerhash> ranok: official nvidia
[22:12] <nosrednaekim> Tyczek: yep... works well for me
[22:12] <Invert314> a fresh kernel was doanloaded and installed
[22:13] <Tyczek> nosrednaekim, yep... for me too
[22:13] <Invert314> didn't allow me to boot gdm
[22:13] <Tyczek> they added new option
[22:13] <Zerhash> ranok: pm?
[22:13] <zelda`> I'm the owner of the computer so I'm root
[22:13] <ifireball> ARAM: there is more then one NTFS partition?
[22:13] <ARAM> ifireball: i know but when prepare partiton windows show a partitons the problem is
[22:13] <ranok> Zerhash: yeah
[22:13] <ARAM> ifireball: yes 2
[22:13] <Tyczek> powerplay- and resolution is not reseting after restart ;}
[22:13] <ActySofts> K3b complains about the charset being ANSI_X3.4-1968, saying that data projects could get corrupted. How can I fix it? I'm on Ubuntu Gutsy.
[22:13] <mitchp> Invert314: after reading some more things, it appears this may be more complicated than anticipated.  Do you not have an Ubuntu CD?
[22:13] <ranok> ok, here's my question: I have gusty installed, (fully updated), using LILO rather than grub, and all of a sudden it stops working
[22:13] <ranok> after a minor kernel update
[22:13] <ARAM> ifireball: linux know then as unknown and when i click on edit partiton it shows linux use this two ntfs as /boot
[22:13] <ActySofts> ranok: why use lilo?
[22:13] <Invert314> mitchp, i do have an ubuntu cd
[22:13] <zelda`> lol I'm using ubuntu to burn a debian CD
[22:13] <Jack_Sparrow> zelda`: You can take everything from var/cache/apt/archives/ and burn it to disk so that you will not need to download it again later shold you want to reinstall
[22:13] <ifireball> ARAM, the existing partitions, are they primary or extended?
[22:14] <Invert314> should i boot into that?
[22:14] <ARAM> ifireball: that is what make me crazy
[22:14] <chickenFuego> how do I set a default user to be selected in gdm? (like in kdm)?
[22:14] <ranok> ActySofts: grub fails to install, it's a rather complex sata setup
[22:14] <ActySofts> oh
[22:14] <ARAM> ifireball: i am not sure but probebly extended
[22:14] <jimmy__> everytime i try to install tomcat5.5 from synaptic i get E: tomcat5.5: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1.....can anyone help me out please?
[22:14] <ARAM> ifireball: and in front of my 2 file show /dev/sed1 and sed 2
[22:14] <scragar> zelda`: aptonCD will make a disk of all the installed programs the easy way.
[22:15] <mitchp> Invert314: I think it may be an issue in the kernel.  Thinking you may want to reinstall if possible.  Unless there's anyone on here who knows more.  Did you say safe mode works or have you not tried it?
[22:15] <AnthroTechie> can someone tell me how to find the device name for my wireless router, like where in my system files it would be located?
[22:15] <Gabby> hello everybody
[22:15] <AnthroTechie> hi
[22:15] <ActySofts> !hi | Gabby
[22:15] <ubotu> Gabby: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[22:15] <zelda`> I'm not doing anything the easy way, that's why I'm getting debian
[22:15] <nosrednaekim> AnthroTechie: "iwconfig
[22:15] <ARAM> ifireball: and the partition i want to use show as /dev/sda3 and 4
[22:15] <zelda`> so I can be more 1337
[22:15] <Gabby> thank youtr
[22:15] <Invert314> mitchp, safe mode works fine
[22:15] <Gabby> wat do we do in here
[22:15] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, I installed tomacat 5.5 on feisty. It worked fine. Can you paste your output to a pastebin please?
[22:16] <Jack_Sparrow> !topic > Gabby
[22:16] <ranok> and when I boot up using a live cd, it sees the drives, though if I chroot into the HDD, and goto /dev, there is no /sda
[22:16] <zelda`> My internet speed is 128 kb/s, so why is this download going at 90 kb/s
[22:16] <Gabby> wat?
[22:16] <ifireball> ARAM: that's ok, it has to do with the order they appear in the partition table
[22:16] <jimmy__> chickenFuego : sorry can you explain what you want me to paste in? I'm new to linux
[22:16] <Invert314> mitchp, you said: <mitchp> Invert314: after reading some more things, it appears this may be more complicated than anticipated.  Do you not have an Ubuntu CD?
[22:16] <Invert314> what things were you reading?
[22:16] <TBotNik_u> Finally recovered in the "recovery" mode.  That "greeter application crashing" error was wierd and it was trying to show better res, but kept failing.  Don't understand why I lost my sound though?  Are they in anyway related?
[22:16] <butcherbird> zelda`: because everyone between you and the server isnt giving their all to your download
[22:16] <ranok> anyone?
[22:16] <ARAM> ifireball: is it going to copy any thing on it ?
[22:16] <scragar> zelda`: you will never get your full download speed, too many factors
[22:16] <Pici> Gabby: This is the Official Ubuntu Support channl
[22:16] <Invert314> how can i better describe my problem to  ppl on the ubuntu forums?
[22:16] <butcherbird> zelda`: id write a letter
[22:16] <Jimmy_saint> can not install ATI driver, getting error message: The software source for the package xorg-driver-fglrx  is not enabled.
[22:17] <butcherbird> Invert314: screenshots are handy
[22:17] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, please copy/paste here and give me the url: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[22:17] <mehrab1131> is there anyway to change ubuntu 7.10 to ubuntu studio?
[22:17] <zelda`> firefox should tell you when your about to download something bigger then your remaining HDD space
[22:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Gabby: If you want to know what we do it would help to read the topic...  THis is the ubuntu support room
[22:17] <fitopaisa> nas
[22:17] <mitchp> Invert314: That error message seems like it's trying to load hardware either incorrectly or unsuccessfully

[22:18] <ActySofts> I messaged ubotu and it doesn't tell me anything, weird...whatever
[22:18] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[22:18] <mitchp> Invert314: I don't have a /org directory and I have no idea what hal is.  Is that a different desktop manager maybe?
[22:18] <ifireball> ARAM: not sure about that, been a while since I've seen the installer...
[22:18] <ActySofts> aww, still no flash plug-in? =(
[22:18] <ARAM> ifireball: what is sda for infront od the partito for example sda 1 or dev/sda 2
[22:18] <jimmy__> ChickenFuego: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49216/       thats what I get in the error window of Synaptic
[22:18] <Invert314> mitchp, HAL stands for Hardware Abstraction Layer
[22:18] <Jack_Sparrow> jimmy__: You would need to enable the correct source repo for that...
[22:18] <Invert314> that's about all i know about it lol
[22:19] <ActySofts> LjL: ?
[22:19] <Jack_Sparrow> ActySofts: Housekeeping
[22:19] <jimmy__> Jack_sparrow: how? in synaptic somewhere?
[22:19] <ActySofts> oh
[22:19] <ifireball> ARAM: thats the name of the device in Linux, sda1 is partition #1 on scsi/usb disk A, and so forth
[22:19] <LjL-Zelazny> ActySofts: i know what i'm doing, trust me :)
[22:19] <Jack_Sparrow> jimmy__: yes..  what file did you want?
[22:19] <Pici> LjL-Zelazny: Famous last words...
[22:19] <mitchp> Invert314: so does it stop doing things altogether or does it keep spitting out those hal messages
[22:19] <kanton> buenas noches
[22:19] <ranok> can anyone help me?
[22:19] <ranok> PLEASE?
[22:19] <Invert314> mitchp, it stops
[22:19] <ActySofts> LjL-Zwlazny: yeah, but could you do it all on one commands, please?
[22:19] <mehrab1131> topic
[22:19] <jimmy__> Jack_sparrow: I'm not sure, I just need tomcat setup so I can start some Java dev work
[22:20] <LjL> ActySofts: no
[22:20] <ARAM> ifireball: thanks you very much for that and also
[22:20] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, you could try the following at the command line: "sudo apt-get install tomcat5.5" - It might solve the dependencies in a better way. paste the outputplz.
[22:20] <inet> If i want to setup a crontab on saturday, which weekday index shall I use?

[22:20] <Jack_Sparrow> jimmy__: Sorry I dont know what tomcat is
[22:20] <inet> is it 6?
[22:20] <Phusion> inet: http://www.clickmojo.com/code/cron-tutorial.html
[22:20] <ARAM> ifireball: when i am in page which is for ready to install when i click on advance
[22:20] <Slart> inet: I think standard is start on sunday.. so I'm guessing 6?
[22:20] <Jack_Sparrow> !find tomcat
[22:20] <ubotu> Found: libtomcat5.5-java, tomcat5.5, tomcat5.5-admin, tomcat5.5-webapps
[22:21] <thyrax_afk> I added more ram to a new install of ubuntu. Is the swap automatically made bigger? does it matter?
[22:21] <MacTheMad> can anyone tell me what's wrong with these settings? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7021d3cb
[22:21] <Flannel> inet: 6, yes. 0 is sunday
[22:21] <wy> does the current version of fglrx from ATI work with suspend ?
[22:21] <Slart> inet: but surely that is explained in the man-page?
[22:21] <mehrab1131> is there anyway to upgrade gutsy to ubuntu studio?
[22:21] <ARAM> ifireball: it shows device fir boot loder installation and in below show (hd0)
[22:21] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49217/
[22:21] <mitchp> Invert314: ok well renaming the networking script in rc2.d (put a _ in front of it to prevent it from loading but so you can easily change it back) and if that works then that should help narrow it down.  It seems like the problem is iwth hardware that network manager is trying to load.
[22:21] <ARAM> ifireball: where this hd0 come from
[22:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !info tomcat5.5
[22:21] <ubotu> tomcat5.5: Servlet and JSP engine. In component universe, is optional. Version 5.5.25-1ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 58 kB, installed size 368 kB
[22:21] <Flannel> mehrab1131: You don't need to "upgrade" just add the u-s repository and install the metapackage.  You should ask in #ubuntustudio
[22:21] <ARAM> ifireball: is it stand for hard drive 0?
[22:22] <Jack_Sparrow> jimmy__: SO you need to enable universe repo
[22:22] <mitchp> Invert314: something like S80network-manager.  Mine's different cuz I use wicd, but mine's S80wicd.
[22:22] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, no problem.. you just need to close all applications related to package management, and rerun apt-get.
[22:22] <ARAM> ifireball: if i want to tell it to install boot files on /sda3 what should i type?
[22:22] <dave81> is there a p2p program that is good to use on linux?
[22:22] <chickenFuego> "Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock" is an error if another app is locking the apt cache.
[22:23] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: sorry, do i just run the command line install command u typed earlier?
[22:23] <AnthroTechie> I'm trying to make open DNS my default DNS settings for my wireless connection, so I'm following the instructions from opendns.com, but in the last part of the instructions for ubuntu my computer says that eth1 in not configured?
[22:23] <wy> Is gparted safe to be used to reside the partitions? I found I don't have enough swap space for my 2GB ram
[22:23] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, yes.
[22:23] <ifireball> ARAM: its a "grum drive name", grub has a different way of naming disks then linux (hd0) is hard drive 0
[22:23] <ifireball> ARAM: do you have options to choose from there?
[22:23] <ActySofts> K3b complains about the charset being ANSI_X3.4-1968, saying that data projects could get corrupted. How can I fix it? I'm on Ubuntu Gutsy.
[22:23] <mitchp> wy it's always dangerous to resize partitions, but in theory yes, it should be safe.  I would backup data first jic
[22:23] <IamOptimus> anybody know about to make upgrade in ubuntu version breezy 5.10
[22:23] <wy> mitchp: Thanks!
[22:24] <chickenFuego> btw jimmy__, are you using eclipse-wtp for jsp/servlets/tomcat?
[22:24] <ARAM> ifireball: it has checklist which says participate in package usage survey
[22:24] <Invert314> mitchp, i can't find the network manager script you speak of
[22:24] <Phusion> AnthroTechie: eth1 isn't your wifi adaptor I doubt
[22:24] <ARAM> ifireball: but in below of device for boot loader installition there is place to change the hd0
[22:24] <Invert314> mitchp, i am going to make post in my thread which does ls for inside rcd.2
[22:24] <ifireball> go back, there should be a screen for grub somewhere
[22:24] <mitchp> Invert314: no scripts with the word networking in it?
[22:24] <Invert314> no
[22:24] <ifireball> ARAM: go back, there should be a screen for grub somewhere
[22:25] <nosrednaekim> Phusion: alot of Intels are called eth1
[22:25] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: still errors :( http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49218/ I havent done any dev work on this pc and have no other IDEs etc installed
[22:25] <Slart> inet: here's what the man page says about this.. "day of week    0-7 (0 or 7 is Sun, or use names)"
[22:25] <ifireball> ARAM: you probably don't want it to install grub on (hd0)
[22:25] <Phusion> nosrednaekim: oh yeah? hrmm
[22:25] <wy> mitchp: Does this command enough for the backup? tar cf /backup.tar .
[22:25] <ARAM> ifireball: because i create .boot with the size of 150 i wan to mount boot

[22:25] <nosrednaekim> !patience | cocox
[22:25] <Invert314> ah ty mitchp
[22:25] <ifireball> ARAM: it has nothing to do with /boot, which. like I said countless times, you DON'T NEED
[22:25] <zelda`> Sound Juicer won't recognize the title/other information on music CD's, it just says unknown, lol
[22:25] <zelda`> o.o

[22:26] <mitchp> wy I haven't used tars before, but it seems like it.  I always just backup everything manually

[22:26] <fluxy> Hello everyone. My once very fast ubuntu installation has become quite sluggish - probably because I didn't shut it down properly. Anyone has any ideas to get it going fast again? Thx...
[22:26] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, which ubuntu version do you have? type "cat /etc/apt/sources.list to know the name
[22:26] <EtteSB> does anyone know of a music editing/production program?
[22:26] <Invert314> mitchp, there is S40networking
[22:26] <ifireball> ARAM: grub is the boot loader that is responsible for starting up the system and loading the most basic parts from the disk
[22:26] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, feisty?
[22:26] <wy> mitchp: tar preserves permissions, dates etc
[22:26] <Slart> fluxy: chech what's running with top or htop
[22:26] <Invert314> so i put an underscore before S40networking
[22:26] <Invert314> ?
[22:27] <varsendaggr> hey i am looking for a live workspace switcher   please point me in the right direction
[22:27] <AnthroTechie> Phusion: your right. . .  but I get the same error message if I use eth0, so what do I do?
[22:27] <ARAM> ifireball: do you know why i do that because some one told me if i have boot the os is faster because of going to load boot on one partitiona dn the other on other partiton which is faster
[22:27] <mitchp> Invert314: yes
[22:27] <nosrednaekim> chickenFuego: "lsb_release" is a bit easier method
[22:27] <Phusion> AnthroTechie: well eth0 is most likely your ethernet device
[22:27] <zelda`> how many kb are in a MB?
[22:27] <fluxy> 1024
[22:27] <nosrednaekim> zelda`: 1000
[22:27] <EtteSB> zelda`: about 1024
[22:27] <zelda`> klol
[22:27] <IamOptimus> 1024 bits
[22:27] <Pici> zelda`: 1000
[22:27] <nosrednaekim> fluxy: true :D
[22:27] <IamOptimus> obivious
[22:27] <thor> varsendaggr which window manager? kde, gnome, and xfce all have one included
[22:28] <chickenFuego> lol nosrednaekim : didn't know this one. thx.
[22:28] <Invert314> mitchp, done
[22:28] <zelda`> is there an internet connection that can get you 1 MB/s
[22:28] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: I'm on 7.10, but heres the output of that command anyway :D
[22:28] <jimmy__> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49220/
[22:28] <bryan_w[wkr]> how many kiloBITS are in a megaBYTE?
[22:28] <zelda`> thats would be 1024 kb/s lol
[22:28] <AnthroTechie> Phusion: sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0
[22:28] <Invert314> gimme 10 minutes to document the change in my forum thread and to reboot
[22:28] <Invert314> and then i will report back here
[22:28] <ranok> bryan_w[wkr]: 8*1028
[22:28] <mitchp> Invert314: ok.  I'm thinking network-manager will still try ot start, but hopefully I'm wrong, since there's no script for it anywhere.  Try to boot now and see what happens
[22:28] <ranok> **1024
[22:28] <ARAM> ifireball: there is no grub at all
[22:28] <thor> bryan_w[wkr] 8192 kb = 1MB
[22:28] <ifireball> ARAM: that is just silly, because its the same physical disk anyway, /boot was invented back in the time where computers had problems working with harddrives bigger then 1G, its not needed today
[22:28] <fluxy> Slart: uh thx, but what am I supposed to do :S
[22:28] <chickenFuego> ok jimmy__, the critial line in the install/config error is: "* no JDK found - please set JAVA_HOME"
[22:29] <AnthroTechie> ifdown: interface ethO not configured
[22:29] <ifireball> ARAM: it might be called "boot loader"
[22:29] <ranok> and, technically, its mibibyte
[22:29] <varsendaggr> thor i am looking for two things a workspace swicher that has more detail than the default gnome   and then a window selector that has updated images of the windows in that have been minimizded
[22:29] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: I don't know how to, can I be a pain and ask?
[22:29] <ranok> **mebibyte
[22:29] <ARAM> ifireball: i love linux because of this online help
[22:29] <varsendaggr> ala enlightenment
[22:29] <zelda`> would 1024 kb/s internet be possible
[22:29] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, just do a "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk"
[22:29] <mitchp> I'm trying to setup alsa to use my bluetooth headset, but I don't know the phys. address for it.  How do I find it?
[22:30] <Slart> fluxy: run top in a terminal.. see if there are any processes that are using lots of cpu.. if you're not doing anything you shouldn't be using more than say.. 5-10%
[22:30] <EtteSB> i love linux cause of the lack of viruses and "apt-get" :3
[22:30] <ARAM> ifireball: but there isnt i have just back and next and cancel and advance which advance is for hd0
[22:30] <ActySofts> K3b complains about the charset being ANSI_X3.4-1968, saying that data projects could get corrupted. How can I fix it? I'm on Ubuntu Gutsy.
[22:30] <ublender> Is there a command to list all hardware information?
[22:30] <inSanity_909> !Xen
[22:30] <ranok> alright, I guess you guys don't know
[22:30] <erUSUL> ublender: lshw
[22:30] <butcherbird> ublender: lspci -v or sudo lshw
[22:30] <ubotu> XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen
[22:30] <ublender> thx
[22:30] <ifireball> you can only choose (hd0) in advanced?
[22:31] <chickenFuego> if you installed java already, paste me the output of "ls -lha /etc/alternatives"
[22:31] <ifireball> ARAM: can you type there?
[22:31] <soho> DCC SEND startkeylogger
[22:31] <thor> varsendaggr I am familiar with the e switcher...I miss e. I use xfce now and the workspace switcher is just a little shy of e...but ahead of gnome and kde (in my opinion)
[22:31] <EtteSB> does anyone know of a music editing/production program?
[22:31] <ARAM> yes
[22:31] <ranok> EtteSB: Audacity
[22:31] <workdammit> can someone explain how i go about getting monit 4.10.1 onto ubuntu?  aptitude only gets me 4.8
[22:31] <ifireball> ARAM: w8
[22:31] <EgoElf> LjL: why did the bot ban him?
[22:31] <ARAM> ifireball: in a place which is type hd0
[22:31] <LjL> !exploit | EgoElf
[22:31] <ubotu> EgoElf: There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[22:31] <ARAM> ifireball: that is the only place i can change
[22:32] <thor> workdammit you can always download the source and compile it yourself
[22:32] <EgoElf> LjL: please dont send me bot-related answers
[22:32] <EgoElf> LjL: i want an answer from YOU

[22:32] <ubotu> EgoElf: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[22:32] <ARAM> ifireball: what is w9?
[22:32] <EtteSB> ranok: tbh i should of thought of that one
[22:32] <tritium> EgoElf: watch your attitude
[22:32] <mitchp> anyone know how to find the physical address for my bluetooth headset?
[22:32] <ARAM> ifireball: sorry w8?
[22:32] <EgoElf> LjL: he didnt do anything, he was banned after being removed off AFTER the exploit was sent
[22:32] <workdammit> thor: right but that's too hairy for my skillset - is there a way to get aptitude to do it or do i just wait until a new package comes out?
[22:32] <fluxy> Slart: it seems pretty decent, but apps take quite some time to load (longer than before)
[22:32] <ifireball> ARAM: w8 == wait; paste "sudo fdisk -l" to pastebin plz
[22:32] <EgoElf> LjL: I'm going to repeat myself, please do not send me bot-related replies.
[22:33] <Slart> fluxy: hm.. done anything special? installed anything?
[22:33] <thor> workdammit the only two ways I know to make it work...compile it yourself or wait til the repo is updated
[22:33] <LjL> EgoElf: he didnt do anything, he was banned after being removed off AFTER the exploit was sent <--- that shows you have NOT READ THE FACTOID.
[22:33] <ARAM> ifireball: where is past bin?
[22:33] <workdammit> thor: that's what i thought, ok thanks anyway
[22:33] <ifireball> !paste | ARAM
[22:33] <ubotu> ARAM: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[22:33] <thor> workdammit you might try getting a more recent rpm or deb from somewhere else, but there are no guarantees it will work
[22:33]  * EgoElf looks at LjL
[22:33] <fluxy> Slart: nothing out of the common, but I think it might be coz I turned power off without shutting down :(
[22:33] <LjL> EgoElf: further questions -> #ubuntu-ops
[22:34] <KiD_ChAoS> does anyone know which monitor to choose in 'screen and graphics'? i have a dell laptop and im confused
[22:34] <LjL> EgoElf: i said "further questions -> #ubuntu-ops", not "further questions -> PM"
[22:34] <ARAM> ifireball: where is paste bin you mean terminal?
[22:34] <EgoElf> LjL: my questions have not been answered here.

[22:35] <EgoElf> LjL: *sigh*, they havent been answered to begin with. So that comment made exacly zero sense.
[22:35] <Slart> fluxy: I don't think shutting the computer down can break something that only would make it slower..
[22:35] <ifireball> ARAM: run the command I gave you in the terminal and paste the results to the pastebin site
[22:35] <ARAM> ubutu:what should i type in paste bin ifireball say i need to type sudo ... i get confused
[22:35] <IamOptimus> please . Who use ubuntu breezy 5.10 I want to make update in my version
[22:35] <ifireball> ARAM: then give me the link the site goves you
[22:35] <ARAM> ok
[22:35] <Slart> fluxy: anything in the syslog? less /var/log/syslog
[22:35] <ARAM> wait a sec
[22:35] <wols_> LjL: quick question: won't those imbeciles get k-lined anymore?
[22:35] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, once you have sun-java installed, change the following line in /etc/default/tomcat5.5. : "#JAVA_HOME=xxx" to "JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun" - everything should work after that (rerun  apt-get install ...)

[22:37] <inSanity_909> try support.dell.com :)
[22:37] <Phusion> mrga_cro: you're in the wrong channel for win32 support
[22:37] <fluxy> Slart: uh yeah, lots of stuffs in it
[22:37] <mrga_cro> i know
[22:37] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, the installation script of tomcat should actually ask for the java version you want to use..but it doesn't -so I had to set it manually.
[22:37] <mrga_cro> but here people also use win
[22:37] <Phusion> mrga_cro: well..... we get a lot of legit questions here
[22:37] <inSanity_909> http://support.dell.com is you place
[22:37] <AnthroTechie> I think that my wireless network device uses a "non-standard" name (meaning NOT eth0) so does anyone know how I would change that?
[22:37] <ARAM> ifireball: i typed that in terminal but the only thing is i am using my other labtop
[22:37] <Phusion> mrga_cro: yes, but this is not a win support channel
[22:37] <mneptok> mrga_cro: Ubuntu questions only, please
[22:37] <Slart> fluxy: ok.. anything that looks like "oh my god -error-,  I'm dying over here.. fix this now!!" ?

[22:38] <mitchp> is there a channel for bluetooth?
[22:38] <inSanity_909> #bluetooth? :p
[22:38] <ifireball> ARAM: you can't get to the internet from the laptop you're installing on?
[22:38] <IamOptimus> :D what answer is this
[22:38] <Pici> inSanity_909: This is a support channel, try to keep the joke answers to a minimum... or zero please.
[22:38] <ARAM> ifireball: no?
[22:38] <mitchp> yea i would guess, but that could be any OS or not even a computer at all
[22:38] <ARAM> no
[22:38] <Phusion> are there repo's for the firefox 3.0 beta?
[22:38] <inSanity_909> Pici: alright :p
[22:39] <ifireball> ARAM: ok, w8
[22:39] <Slart> fluxy: anything that looks like an error at all? you could do a "grep -i error /var/log/syslog"
[22:39] <thor> Phusion no repos, but there is a download page
[22:39] <ogre> can someone explain these (short) directions to install weatherget for me?
[22:39] <Pici> inSanity_909: We have #ubuntu-offtopic if you just want random chatter

[22:47] <ifireball> ARAM: does typing "sudo fdisk -l" give you anything ?
[22:47] <ARAM> yes
[22:47] <thor> Kuropon you can use 'ps ax | grep <something> to find out if 'something' is in the list
[22:47] <MacTheMad> could someone tell me how I can open terminal as root not my user name?

[22:48] <ActySofts> MacTheMad: sudo i
[22:48] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, the place is: "/usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/", but I really recommend to use an IDE (eg. eclispe with wtp plugin) to automatically generate the config files of tomcat..
[22:48] <ActySofts> *sudo -i
[22:48] <ifireball> ARAM: how many lines in there begin with "Disk /dev" ?

[22:49] <thor> Kuropon not sure what that will be called
[22:49] <Kuropon> thor, didn't work
[22:49] <ifireball> ok, nevermind, just type "sudo grub" and tell me when it gives you "grub>"
[22:49] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: I've been advised to not use an IDE so I learn how it "really" comes together, is it relatively easy to configure eclipse to tomcat? (I've got some basic experience of eclipse)
[22:49] <ActySofts> K3b complains about the charset being ANSI_X3.4-1968, saying that data projects could get corrupted. How can I fix it?  I got the message that "Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary." when I use fdisk. But my partition says: /dev/sda3            6001        9000    24097500   83  Linux
[22:50] <ubuntuisloved> Merry Christmas to All Ubuntu Users ! :)
[22:50] <chickenFuego> btw, there is an incompatibility between tomcat5.5. in ubuntu and eclipse-wtp. You need to do a "sudo ln -s /usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/ /usr/share/tomcat5.5/webapps/" -- otherwise, eclipse-wtp is not seeing a "proper" tomcat.
[22:50] <Malachi> What's a good Python IDE that uses GTK? IDLE makes my eyes bleed.
[22:50] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, want a free gift?
[22:50] <ARAM> ifireball: it give me
[22:50] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: sure
[22:50] <khaotik> can anyone help with installing/enabling nvidia driver
[22:50] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, I would say: no it is not that easy and logical to set-up. But with a good tutorial you need 10min!
[22:50] <Malachi> khaotik: What's the problem?
[22:51] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, ok. pick something on which you want to learn about ;-)
[22:51] <ifireball> Malachi: vim :P
[22:51] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: C++
[22:51] <Malachi> khaotik: Try going to System > Administration > Restriced Drivers Manager and see if it's there.
[22:51] <Malachi> ifireball: GTK. :P
[22:51] <khaotik> its there and its enabled
[22:51] <ARAM> ifireball: do you know what i want to do i try to unmount  my ntfs but it ignore and say it is not possible to eject ..
[22:51] <ifireball> Malachi: gvim :P
[22:51] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: or whatever i can use to work with to build apps in ubuntu
[22:51] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, the trick with the eclipse wtp plugin is that eclipse can stop/start/restart your tomcat, republish files after editing etc. It is great!
[22:51] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: I just install eclipse from synaptic? and btw, how do I send PMs here? :P
[22:51] <Malachi> ifireball: Thanks :D
[22:52] <Malachi> khaotik: It should be enabled then.
[22:52] <Ttech> Hi, I have 2 questions, my first question , is  what is the percentage of each partition on a drive?
[22:52] <khaotik> cant change my screen resolution to 1200x
[22:52] <Malachi> kahotik: Ah. I see.
[22:52] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, here is the wininig tutorial ;) http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-eclipse-tomcat/index.html
[22:52] <khaotik> it only has option for 800x600
[22:53] <Ttech> khaotik: I have had the same problem, exept its my resoution keeps resetting to an overly large 1900 by ****
[22:53] <ubuntuisloved> Got a quick question for you all is it possible to revert after a update is done using update manager?
[22:53] <Ttech> khaotik: did you setup the display drivers correctly?
[22:53] <Malachi> kahotik: Well, let's see if the drivers are actually installed.
[22:53] <ifireball> ARAM: no, but I don't think it matters for anything, have you got "grub>" yet?
[22:53] <ARAM> yes
[22:53] <chickenFuego> jimmy__,  but you need the "sudo ln -s /usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/ /usr/share/tomcat5.5/webapps/" on ubuntu for this tutorial to work.
[22:53] <khaotik> dont know. my friend installed and had everything workin lovely
[22:53] <Malachi> khaotik: Open a terminal. Type this: glxinfo | grep direct
[22:53] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, see you in 10 min? ;)
[22:53] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: well ?
[22:53] <Malachi> khaotik: It should say yes.
[22:53] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, well, you can use python if you like, here is a good tut, http://www.swaroopch.com/byteofpython/ ... and the real free gift pertaining to that: feel free to contact me for anything, anotequaltob at gmail dot com
[22:54] <adelie> Whenever I go to quit, th computer seems to freeze ofr about 1 minute where I can't do anything but move the mouse before the logout / shutdown window appears. I have always having to alt-f2 gksudo init 0 to shutdown
[22:54] <mirak> I have this command in my /etc/rc.local, hdparm -d1 -X udma5 -m16 /dev/hda , but I realised my drive was in udma4 . I don't understand why it's not to the max of my drive automatically. Is there a way to kind of reset that ?
[22:54] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: sweet but is there anything thats not script driven for gui development in ubuntu?
[22:54] <ifireball> ARAM: ok, type "root (" and press the tab key, it shuld say something like "Possible disks are hd0 hd1" tell me what it says exactly
[22:54] <khaotik> yea it says yes
[22:55] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, i'm sorry? hang on, i need to reread your phrasing...
[22:55] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: Ok thanks for the guide, I've made the "ln" link and now setting up eclipse, are you sticking around? bound to get stuck somewhere :P
[22:55] <Malachi> khaotik: Good. Okay, do this:
[22:55] <Malachi> khaotik: Type Alt+F2 and type in "gksudo gedit" without the quotes.
[22:55] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, yes I am here. This story is fresh for me. I did it two weeks ago.
[22:55] <ARAM> it says possibe comman are :root rootnoverify
[22:55] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: i use php but i wanted something like C or C++ to use in ubuntu to write apps?
[22:56] <adelie> help :( Can anyone tell me why my computer freezes for a minute when I click 'quit'?
[22:56] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, you say "is there anything thats not script driven (...)". why do you think scripts are bad? Python is a fully featured programming language
[22:56] <khaotik> okay
[22:56] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, for that you can get
[22:56] <ARAM> ifireball: it says possibe comman are :root rootnoverify
[22:56] <ifireball> ARAM: dod you type the "(" ?
[22:56] <kbrooks> !info build-essential
[22:56] <ubotu> build-essential: informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.3ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 6 kB, installed size 48 kB
[22:56] <ARAM> ifireball: no
[22:56] <chickenFuego> oooh jimmy__ do you have the "tomcat5.5-webapps" package installed already?? (type "sudo dpkg -l | grep tomcat" to see what you have.)
[22:56] <ifireball> ARAM: the "(" is important...
[22:56] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[22:56] <ubuntuisloved> well i wanted protection from modifying source
[22:56] <ARAM> ifireball: could you tell me exctly how to tp it ?
[22:57] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: is python OOP ?
[22:57] <Ttech> what is the crecommended partition sizes for each part of Ubuntu?
[22:57] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, it uses various paradigms, but at its core it is essentially OOP
[22:57] <Malachi> khaotik: File > Open. Look on the left hand side, find "File System." Double-click that, then browse to the etc folder.
[22:58] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: they its time i start learning it
[22:58] <ifireball> ARAM: from where you are now, type the spacebar and then "(" and then the tab key
[22:58] <Milotin> evenin'
[22:58] <Malachi> khaotik: (Or just type /etc/ in the Location bar.)
[22:58] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: do you recommend an app or have an app i can view to see some of code of a current gui in ubuntu?
[22:58] <Milotin> any Ubuntu 7.10 masters around ?
[22:58] <wy> What does " cylinder boundary " mean?
[22:58] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, i gave you a link to a tutorial. there's #python. and i gave you my e-mail. that's your free gift ;-)
[22:58] <ActySofts> K3b complains about the charset being ANSI_X3.4-1968, saying that data projects could get corrupted. How can I fix it? I'm on Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10), with Gnome (obviously).
[22:58] <ARAM> ifireball: you mean type:root "("
[22:58] <ubuntuisloved> Milotin: this room is full of those
[22:58] <ARAM> ifireball: ?
[22:58] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, um, an app... hmm..
[22:58] <orkun> hi, is there a way to completely stop gnome-panel from starting, next time i boot ubuntu?
[22:59] <ubuntuisloved> sweet thanks
[22:59] <Milotin> well i will need one of them in private :P
[22:59] <ifireball> ARAM: without the quotes
[22:59] <ifireball> ARAM: just (
[22:59] <orkun> without an ugly way of starting it and autokilling it via script?
[22:59] <Milotin> it`s kindah hard to explain in the main
[22:59] <ARAM> ok
[22:59] <wy> My first partition starts at 1, end 3500. My second partition starts at 3501, ends at 6000. Is that wrong?
[22:59] <adelie> Ok, different issue, My monitor blinks (like it is changing screen resolutions) at rendom intervals, but more often the higher the resolution. I get this in both windows and ubuntu. Any ideas?
[22:59] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: yes I think, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49227/
[22:59] <Milotin> my i pm you ubuntuisloved
[22:59] <Milotin> ?
[22:59] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, i'm unsure, altho you can find packages that depend on the python package and look in there for the source code
[22:59] <ubuntuisloved> Milotin: throw out the question lets all see it
[22:59] <ARAM> ifireball:  i have typed root ( and it says error 21:selected disk does not exist
[23:00] <khaotik> dont have file>open. maybe places?  using 7.10 gutsy
[23:00] <ActySofts> help?
[23:00] <ubuntuisloved> kbrooks: cool i sent u a test email
[23:00] <Milotin> well it`s a networking problem
[23:00] <MacTheMad> following instructions for internet connection sharing I'm supposed to reconfigure ipmasq to start after networking has been started but after typing in dpkg-reconfigure ipmasq I'm asked "Should PPP connections recompute the firewall?" Should they? How do I answer & why?
[23:00] <ere4si> orkun: you can right click and delete the panels
[23:00] <ubuntuisloved> Milotin: shoot the question
[23:00] <ifireball> ARAM: it doesn't say anything else?
[23:00] <Malachi> khaotik: If you typed "gksudo gedit" after you pressed Alt+F2, you should have a text-editor open.
[23:00] <ARAM> no
[23:00] <Milotin> i`ve got a DHCP connection ... i got the reply from everything i ping but i can`t connect to anywhere
[23:01] <orkun> ere4si: not the last one :(
[23:01] <ifireball> ARAM: from the way it looks, if you're gonna install now, it'll fail
[23:01] <orkun> i can only get it to shrink down to a button
[23:01] <ubuntuisloved> Milotin: so are you able to get into your router
[23:01] <kbrooks> ubuntuisloved, i have some hints over here. i will e-mail you the command in a second
[23:01] <ARAM> ifireball: do you know what i do
[23:01] <kazol> Is anyone here familiar with metacity?
[23:01] <ubuntuisloved> Milotin: also you need to verify its using correct DNS
[23:02] <Milotin> get into router ?
[23:02] <ARAM> ifireball: i am in safe mode and i try to install create 2 partiton and install and lets see what error it give me
[23:02] <ubuntuisloved> Milotin: do command ifconfig
[23:02] <ubuntuisloved> Milotin: pm me
[23:02] <Milotin> ok
[23:02] <ifireball> ARAM: reboot then try what we just did again, see if it gives you better results
[23:03] <ARAM> ifireball: i will do but first let me try install see what result i get
[23:03] <ifireball> ARAM: do you know how many disks do you have connected to that machine?
[23:03] <ARAM> ifireball: i just take out my labtop disk
[23:03] <ifireball> ARAM: it will probably ruin what ever you got on the machine
[23:03] <steph_> hi everybody
[23:03] <ARAM> ifireball: and just have external one
[23:03] <stefano> hi steph_
[23:03] <ARAM> ifireball: nothing else just 1
[23:03] <steph_> :)
[23:03] <kazol> How do I install a theme in metacity?
[23:04] <ere4si> orkun: this seems the best solution - http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=594729
[23:04] <ifireball> ARAM: there is no disk inside the laptop?
[23:04] <ubuntuisloved> Milotin:????
[23:04] <ARAM> ifireball: no because i thougt it could damage the boot and just takle it out and just use external one
[23:04] <steph_> stefano: Do i have a twin brother?
[23:04] <khaotik> alright have an open text box
[23:04] <Milotin> ubuntuisloved
[23:05] <Milotin> i messaged you
[23:05] <orkun> thanks found it 2 seconds ago in sessions
[23:05] <Milotin> are you sure you`re not silenced?
[23:05] <stefano> kazol, go to the appearence menu in system - preferences, select the theme options (i dont know the exact names because i'm running a localised version) and add your theme (i suppose you've downloaded a tar.gz file)
[23:05] <Malachi> khaotik: File > Open. Browse to the /etc/ directory. (You can just type in /etc where it says location)

[23:06] <stefano> Montego, i mean type about:plugins in the url bar
[23:06] <ifireball> ARAM: did you take it out before or after you loaded up the live-CD ?
[23:06] <ARAM> ifireball: could it cause any probelm "
[23:06] <ARAM> ifireball: before
[23:06] <Montego> ahhh I see ty
[23:06] <stefano> yw
[23:06] <ifireball> ARAM: oh hack... try telling the installer to install on (hd0) it may just work
[23:06] <kazol> stefano: Thanks, I didn't know the default were metacity themes.
[23:07] <Ttech> what is the crecommended partition sizes for each part of Ubuntu?
[23:07] <skullhead> dos anyone know what to do if the sound is off in video's on youtube?
[23:07] <ARAM> ifireball: it has been already configed to install on hd0
[23:07] <ActySofts> K3b complains about the charset being ANSI_X3.4-1968, saying that data projects could get corrupted. How can I fix it? I'm on Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10), with Gnome (obviously).
[23:07] <stefano> kazol, metacity is just the window decoratior, there are gtk-themes as well for window content and controls
[23:07] <ifireball> ARAM: yes, ok
[23:07] <ata4ix> anybody knows how to add the daemon to autoboot?
[23:07] <ata4ix> rc0.d etc
[23:07] <ata4ix> have a command?
[23:08] <Pici> ata4ix: update-rc.d
[23:08] <stefano> ata4ix, in ubuntu i think it's called just init.d but i could be wrong
[23:08] <Pici> ata4ix: check its manpage
[23:08] <khaotik> okay its open
[23:08] <ARAM> ifireball: oh when i click install the box come with that details and have goback and contunue button
[23:08] <ata4ix> i have eggdrop and i want that system starts them automaticly
[23:08] <ata4ix> how i can do this?
[23:09] <stefano> ata4ix, does it have to be started as a deamon?
[23:09] <Ttech> ata4ix: I beleve you use the session thing in the Admistation menu, and put the command you want to run
[23:09] <ARAM> ifireball: the installer need to commit changes to partiton table .but can not do so because the partiton on the following mount point could not be mounted :
[23:09] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: got eclipse up, trying the tutorial you linked me, got as far as selecting the callisto details but when i select the ones required it greys out the "Next" button, error message http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49230/
[23:09] <Ttech> That auto starts it at least
[23:09] <ata4ix> yes

[23:09] <vincenz> !thankyou | Pici
[23:09] <ubotu> Pici: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[23:10] <Pici> ;)
[23:10] <stefano> skullhead, do you mean it doesnt play audio at all?
[23:10] <steph_> Ok, I'll try to explain my problem (which I don't understand that much). I have 2 network intefaces: one goes to the web, the other to the router. If I ping the router, it says "Destination Host Unreachable". I'm on the same subnet. When I try to admin the router from a M$, everything is well (conclusion: the router works). Do I have to setup something like firewall, conf file or something else ? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
[23:10] <khaotik> now which file do i open
[23:10] <ata4ix> there is present a command in console to put the eggdrop or other module as daemon?
[23:10] <Malachi> khaotik: xorg.conf
[23:10] <skullhead> no i mean the audios always about 2-3 secs ahead of the video
[23:10] <ARAM> ifireball: /media/external... it is my hard drive and partiton which is for ntfs and then inbelow say that please close any application using these mount point which i  dont have any application open and
[23:10] <kazol> stefano: Are you familiar with emerald?
[23:10] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, typical dependency crap with eclipse plugins.. you might have a checkbox "select dependencies" or so in your eclipse dialog.
[23:10] <Ders> My Firefox flash player is showing jumbled flash images, when loading games specifically.  I installed Adobe and the other one, then uninstalled Adobe, same result
[23:11] <khaotik> the one thats in the X11 folder
[23:11] <ARAM> ifireball: at the end say would you like the installer to try to unmount ths
[23:11] <ata4ix> or i just can create symlink in /etc/init.d/ ?
[23:11] <khaotik> ??
[23:11] <stefano> kazol, a bit, but i don't recomment it, metacity works just fine and there is  tons of themes as well, i suppose you already know gnome-look.org?
[23:11] <ARAM> ifireball: to unumount these partiton again
[23:11] <Pici> !boot | ata4ix
[23:11] <ifireball> ARAM: do you have the terminal open?
[23:11] <ata4ix> symlink to program wich i want to start automatically?
[23:11] <ARAM> ifireball: yes
[23:11] <ata4ix> !boot
[23:11] <ifireball> ARAM: close it
[23:11] <ata4ix> nothing
[23:11]  * Pici boots the bot
[23:11] <Deets> hello
[23:11] <ubotu> ata4ix: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[23:11] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, the button "select required" on the right I think.
[23:11] <ifireball> ARAM: then tell it to try again
[23:11] <ARAM> ifireball: done
[23:11] <skullhead> stefano: no i mean the audios always about 2-3 secs ahead of the video
[23:12] <ata4ix> thanks!
[23:12] <Pici> ata4ix: check the message from ubotu on how to properly add things to bootup
[23:12] <Ttech> anyone with my questions ? :)
[23:12] <ata4ix> Pici, gracias!
[23:12] <erisco> I am having troubles mounting a floppy. I have a floppy drive... and a floppy disk...
[23:12] <jimmy__> chickenFuego : problem existed between chair and keyboard :P
[23:12] <stefano> skullhead, do you have a fast machine or is it rather old? and do you have desktop-effects enabled?
[23:12] <Ders> I'll take my question to Mozilla
[23:12] <kazol> stefano: Yeah, but I like a particular emerald theme because it has more window controls. Why don't you recommend it? Stability?
[23:12] <ARAM> ifireball: oh then it goes to partiton disk windows which means all of the configration has gone
[23:12] <erisco> but I don't think ubuntu is recognizing it... there is no mount point
[23:12] <Deets> when I write a WPA-PSK key in ubuntu it connects well, but after a reboot it doesn't connect, I have to write the WPA Personal key again and it works, but after a reboot it doesn't... and so on...
[23:12] <chickenFuego> jimmy__, lol.
[23:12] <Deets> How can I mantain the WPA Personal key?
[23:13] <ARAM> ifireball: i dont know in some way linux use these two partiton i mean ntfs one and know them as sda 1 and 2
[23:13] <ActySofts> K3b complains about the charset being ANSI_X3.4-1968, saying that data projects could get corrupted. How can I fix it? I'm on Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10), with Gnome (obviously).
[23:13] <jimmy__> chickenFuego: have you also set up mySQL yourself?
[23:13] <skullhead> stefano: o i know my computer can run youtube videos its got 2.0ghz but ya i have deskyop effects enebled and i have a nvidia graphic card
[23:13] <ARAM> ifireball: if i can unmount them then i think this problem will be solved
[23:13] <stefano> kazol, the product is discontinued, there are no further updates and that means that it's not stable in combination with conpiz-fusion. but if you want to use it anyways, see the ubuntu wiki, there should be an artice on how to install it. you could also try to find a similar theme for metacity
