[06:57] <xSUSHi> ntfs-3g is new to Edgy
[06:58] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: Yeah, it's strange, especially since the extension *was* installed a little while ago :)
[06:58] <Jordan_U> xSUSHi: is ntfs-3g better than fuse?
[06:58] <Kaiyang> anyone?
[06:58] <xSUSHi> i think so
[06:58] <jmg> morten: thx, xserver-xorg was horked and needed to be reinstalled
[06:58] <Jordan_U> xSUSHi: is it safe?
[06:58] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, so you clicked on the xpi link and it brought up and error message?
[06:58] <xSUSHi> i had problems with fuse accepting my group id as access to write....
[06:59] <cliffd> Kaiyang: if you go to support.dell.com and put in your service tag it will tell you the raid controller
[06:59] <elknof1__> cliffd: sorry... i get disconected
[06:59] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: xpi?
[06:59] <xSUSHi> Jordan_u: apparently its safer?   the website said its an alternative for safe writing to ntfs
[06:59] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: OK, xpi.  Yes.
[06:59] <Kaiyang> service-tag? where?
[06:59] <cliffd> elknof1_ I dont think your board supports usb booting.
[06:59] <cliffd> Kaiyang: what model is this?
[06:59] <xSUSHi> jordan: either way my windows partition will never boot again from all the writing i did to the disk...
[07:00] <xSUSHi> but it didnt dammage any non-os related files
[07:00] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, what exactly does the message say that comes up?
[07:00] <Kaiyang> PowerEdge 840
[07:00] <xSUSHi> jordan_u: the best way is to just use ext3 for all partitions --- and use a virtual machine if you need win xp
[07:00] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: Software installation is currently disabled. Click Edit Options... to enable it and try again.
[07:01] <cliffd> Kaiyang: look for a rectangle sticker about 2 inches long, it says service tag on it.
[07:02] <Kaiyang> ok checking now
[07:02] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, you will need to use about:config to reset the "xpinstall.enabled" preference to the default "true" value
[07:02] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: There is an "Edit Options..." button to the right of the message.  Clicking on it brings up the "Firefox Preference: Content" window.
[07:02] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, it's a preference carried over from FF 1.0.x that is no longer in the gui
[07:03] <Kaiyang> and after i found it?
[07:03] <jmg> now i need to rebuild nvidia kernel moduel
[07:03] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: OK, I double clicked in xpinstall.enabled and now it says true.
[07:03] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, try installing the extension again
[07:03] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: Cool, it's working.  Is Adblock Plus 7.2.2 worthwhile?
[07:04] <xSUSHi> Again , when I last used Linux like 5 years ago , there was nowhere close to the kind of love and support that the Ubuntu community has , you guys ROCK !!
[07:05] <Geoffrey2> is mencoder pretty straightforward, or do I need to pass a bunch of configuration options?
[07:05] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, Adblock Plus is better than Adblock, but I prefer adblocking through userstyles.  Adblock has the benefit of not downloading the content, so is beneficial on slow connections.  Adblocking through userstyles downloads the content but doesn't show and acutally uses less memory
[07:06] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: I'll give adblock plus a try.
[07:07] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, Adblock Plus shouldn't have the problem with flash or java that normal Adblock does
[07:07] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: It's late, and I have to go. Tomorrow I'll try replacing flash 7 with flash 9 :)  Thanks for all your help!
[07:08] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, you should run "locate libflashplayer.so" and see where it actually is located.  you can then stick flash 9 in the same place
[07:08] <slavik> dapper: networkmanager doesn't see wireless networks and 'iwlist eth1 scan' returns no results ... module for my card is loaded (bcm43xx)
[07:09] <eternalswd> EnsignRedshirt, good luck
[07:09] <EnsignRedshirt> eternalswd: Good idea... I'll try that.  Good night!
[07:09] <slavik> ~/.mozilla/firefox/plugins for flash I believe
[07:09] <finn> what is the recommended fax program to use with a laptop modem?
[07:10] <bum> slavik does it show under ifconfig?
[07:10] <slavik> bum, yes
[07:11] <Geoffrey2> good luck with Flash 9, I've had nothing but grief with it
[07:11] <bimberi> !fffc
[07:11] <Ubotwo> If Firefox is crashing on sites using Flash try adding "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1" to /etc/firefox/firefoxrc (ref: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/14911 )
[07:11] <slavik> Geoffrey2: I find that it works better than 7 ...
[07:11] <Jordan_U> Anyone with xmoto installed, do you have a file: ~/.xmoto/Textures/UI/Loading.png ?
[07:11] <slavik> Jordan_U: did you delete the file?
[07:11] <bum> what model card?
[07:12] <slavik> broadcom 4318
[07:12] <Jordan_U> slavik: No, but xmoto is complaining that it doesn't exist, and it doesn't.
[07:12] <slavik> firmware is installed
[07:12] <slavik> Jordan_U: k, no idea :(
[07:12] <rickyfingers> does anyone here know if it is possible to install flash player on x86_64?
[07:13] <slavik> rickyfingers: not yet I think
[07:13] <Jordan_U> rickyfingers: It is possible, but a hassle
[07:13] <rickyfingers> I don't mid hassle, what do I need to start reading?
[07:13] <Geoffrey2> slavik, just the opposite for me.....Flash 9 kept bringing Firefox to a standstill....
[07:14] <bum> have you looked at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102
[07:14] <Jordan_U> rickyfingers: You need to set up a 32 bit chroot, run the 32 bit version of firefoc from there, and install flash on the 32 bit firefox.
[07:14] <Jordan_U> *firefox
[07:14] <slavik> looking
[07:16] <rickyfingers> thanks Jordan. I can dig your explanation
[07:16] <Jordan_U> rickyfingers: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/32bitBrowserOnAmd64
[07:17] <rickyfingers> JU: that's actually a very cool, general solution to the problem. I like it.
[07:17] <Jordan_U> rickyfingers: That is just a spec, but it is interesting.
[07:17] <slavik> bum: I am using native drivers
[07:18] <jmg> hi all
[07:18] <jmg> i have a problem with nvidia on edgy
[07:19] <jmg> where can i get the kernel module for 8776
[07:20] <Kaiyang> thanks guys
[07:20] <bum> this page talks about getting the card working in network manager... http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/Networking/How_to_get_Broadcom_43xx_Wireless_AirForce54g_card_to_work_proven_in_Ubuntu_Dappe_Drake
[07:20] <jmg> for 2.6.17
[07:20] <slavik> ty
[07:21] <slavik> bum, that's ndiswrapper
[07:21] <slavik> Iam using native drivers
[07:22] <bum> sorry...I thought it might be worth trying since it seems these cards are stubborn
[07:22] <slavik> yeah, thing is it used to work
[07:22] <XhyldazhK> hi
[07:23] <bum> ok
[07:23] <pod> +
[07:23] <XhyldazhK> my openoffice is stuck in the kde look and feel how do i switch it to gnome?
[07:23] <slavik> I believe there is a package to make GTKappslook like QT apps, you need to get rid of that
[07:24] <bum> did it stop working after installing something new?
[07:24] <XhyldazhK> ahhhh
[07:24] <slavik> after I reloaded the module manually
[07:25] <Arigato> what is the difference between /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin?
[07:26] <esstone> my iPod is mounting read-only, how do I get it to mount read-write ?
[07:26] <slavik> Arigato: stuff that comes with default install should go into /usr/bin, stuff that you install should be in /usr/local/bin
[07:26] <Jordan_U> esstone: Is it mac formatted or windows formated?
[07:26] <slavik> esstone: in terminal mount -o rw /ipod/dir
[07:26] <slavik> or nvm?
[07:26] <esstone> mac, it used to be windows until i had to restore today on a friend's mac
[07:26] <slavik> Arigato: that is what I have been told
[07:27] <Arigato> that makes sense
[07:27] <Jordan_U> esstone: Writing to HFS+ in linux is less stable than writing to NTFS, I would personally reformat it.
[07:28] <esstone> ok, I'll go try reformatting in Windows.  Thanks!
[07:29] <zheng> Hi
[07:30] <nekostar> hihi
[07:32] <Master_Frag> how do i get dvd compatibility for totem
[07:33] <Flannel> !dvd | Master_Frag
[07:33] <Ubotwo> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[07:36] <Clin1> I have seaarched and seaarched but i can not find one program that will let me host my own domain name can any noe help me with that? ( id like aa gui if possible)
[07:37] <lastnode> Clin1, you mean you want to run a nameserver?
[07:37] <Clin1> Yes id like to just to host one
[07:37] <lastnode> Clin1, im not sure you get the picture properly. are yout rying to host a website?
[07:37] <Clin1> Yes
[07:37] <bum> apache for web
[07:37] <bum> httpd
[07:38] <Clin1> Apache and a lot of extentions
[07:38] <bum> dyndns could be useful for you too
[07:38] <lastnode> Clin1, as bum said you'll need to get apache, and then ask your domain name people to redirect the domain to the IP you're hosting from
[07:38] <Flannel> Clin1: you mean to get your own domain name?  You need to contact a registrar for that, etc.  It's not a "program" thing
[07:38] <Clin1> Then whats the thing Bind for
[07:39] <Clin1> Theirs a program acalled Bind9
[07:39] <tonyyarusso> How do you make ~/.bash_aliases load on login?
[07:40] <Flannel> Clin1: sure, you could start your own DNS, but no one would connect to it (unless they reconfigured their software)
[07:40] <Clin1> Also if im correct it does not matter who hosts it aas long as it makes it to the other servers daatabook as the ip aand name
[07:40] <Clin1> hostname*
[07:40] <Flannel> Clin1: that's correct
[07:41] <Clin1> Then....
[07:41] <Clin1> I should be able to do this
[07:42] <Flannel> Clin1: if you host your own DNS, then anyone configured to use that will.  But no one will be.  and it won't get put into the ones other people use.  You'd need to buy a domain name, etc.
[07:42] <bum> add bash_aliases to bash login file
[07:42] <HermanDE> Hey folks.....
[07:42] <Clin1> BOy i haate netfirms.
[07:42] <Clin1> I got one through netfirms but they SUCK

[07:42] <skelter> !eclipse
[07:42] <Ubotwo> Sorry, package searching is not available - try http://packages.ubuntu.com
[07:43] <Chippy> hey, is there any way to set a session startup program to run even if it requires to be run as root?
[07:43] <quinnster> I'm having problems with wireless after upgrading from 6.06 to 6.10.  I can get it to run in 6.10 if I use the 6.06 kernel, iwconfig essid/key the AP myself (even though it's already stored) and taking the interface down then up.  I heard I need to do restricted_modules or something?  Anyone know how I can fix this?
[07:43] <Clin1> OK another question for you how do i maake a program startup at system startup
[07:44] <murali> how to find debian repository on the web? pls tell me
[07:44] <noodles13> for a default install of ubuntu. is port 5190 open?
[07:44] <Chippy> Clin1: System > Preferences > Sessions, Startup Programs tab
[07:44] <frogzoo> !repos
[07:44] <Ubotwo> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[07:44] <Clin1> Thank you
[07:44] <Chippy> no
[07:44] <Chippy> no problem*
[07:45] <murali> ubotwo : thnx
[07:45] <Ubotwo> murali: Error: ":" is not a valid command.
[07:45] <bum> port 5190 shouldn't be open by default
[07:46] <noodles13> ( how can i open it? and is it safe to open so i can connect using gaim?)
[07:46] <noodles13> ( will this be a security hole issue if left open?)
[07:46] <esstone> I reformatted the iPod in Windows and now it mounts rw again.  Many thanks!
[07:47] <nekostar> heh
[07:47] <nekostar> congrats
[07:47] <bum> gaim should automatically use that port w/out any manual configuration
[07:47] <bum> you may need to open it in your firewall if you're running one
[07:48] <bum> any unused open ports are a security hole
[07:49] <bum> even closed ports can be an issue if they are sending responses
[07:49] <nekostar> lol agreed
[07:49] <nekostar> tho there is great documentation on how to configure iptables
[07:50] <Clin1> Cant do DNS hu ::::NSS module for Multicast DNS name resolution:::
[07:50] <noodles13> bum: i opened it in my router but i'm just wondering if the reason gaim can't connect is because it is closed on my computer
[07:50] <Geoffrey2> in Nautilus, I can see a thumbnail image of my avi files, but no other video formats....is there any way to change that?
[07:51] <bum> you running the latest version of gaim? I've had trouble w/older versions
[07:51] <Clin1> Ok i got a DNS set up some one test it please, http://www.clubmckinleyweb.com

[07:56] <nextstate> I am trying to install seamonkey, but whenever I runt ./seamonkey-installer I get the error './seamonkey-installer-bin: no such file or directory' and the file exists. I've never had this happen before. Any ideas?
[07:56] <bum> did you try sudo?
[07:56] <nextstate> yes
[07:57] <Thegino> hello
[07:58] <wastrel> nextstate:  the installer is a sh script, you're in edgy, it needs bash
[07:58] <wastrel> nextstate:  fix the shebang line to point to bash instead of sh
[07:58] <wastrel> what's seamonkey?
[07:58] <nextstate> oh
[07:58] <bum> sh
[07:58] <Thegino> need help
[07:59] <nextstate> used to be mozilla
[07:59] <bum> or try sh at beginning
[07:59] <wastrel> bum:  sh in edgy is dash
[07:59] <dorto> is opera added to the edgy repositories yet?
[07:59] <wastrel> dash breaks a lot of scripts that rely on bash extensions
[07:59] <wastrel> !info opera
[07:59] <Ubotwo> Sorry, package searching is not available - try http://packages.ubuntu.com
[08:00] <wastrel> hmm
[08:00] <Thegino> NoOb here

[08:03] <defrysk> Thegino, you dont
[08:03] <defrysk> you just use synaptic
[08:03] <bum> cd to the directory where you dl'ed firefox and tar -zxvf nameofdownloadedfile
[08:03] <liquidboy> is there any way in windowmaker to make double-clicking on the window boarder maxamize it?
[08:03] <Alakazamz0r> liquidboy, windows does that.
[08:04] <Alakazamz0r> :)
[08:04] <Healot> v option is evil
[08:04] <bum> sudo apt-get install firefox or sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox
[08:04] <Alakazamz0r> bum, what are you doing?
[08:04] <Thegino> thanks bum its worked should i do that with all tar.gz files??
[08:04] <Alakazamz0r> sudo aptitude install mozilla-firefox
[08:04] <bum> in most cases, yes
[08:04] <Alakazamz0r> Thegino, rm -rf nameofthetargzfiles.tar.gz
[08:04] <defrysk> Thegino, you already have firefox installed on ubuntu
[08:05] <bum> the great thing about linux is there is more than one way to do just about anything
[08:05] <nekostar> eh
[08:05] <nekostar> dont use the f option unless you have to
[08:05] <defrysk> nuts
[08:05] <Alakazamz0r> http://www.ceilingcat.com/
[08:05] <Alakazamz0r> smacks you
[08:05] <liquidboy> Alakazamz0r, yeah... it sure does... i'm just wondering if there's an easier way to maxamize other than holding the ctrl and shift buttons and double-clicking...
[08:05] <Alakazamz0r> pwn4g3&&QQ
[08:05] <Thegino> yea but gonna install from mozilla so i can update from firefox
[08:05] <Alakazamz0r> liquidboy, what window manager?

[08:06] <trelayne> hi all, anyone have a suggestion for a good diff tool?
[08:06] <nekostar> alt+f10
[08:06] <Alakazamz0r> diff tool?
[08:06] <nekostar> maximizes
[08:06] <liquidboy> Alakazamz0r, WindowMaker
[08:06] <trelayne> one that can do diffs between directories too ?
[08:06] <trelayne> diff between files content
[08:07] <nekostar> i think dd works
[08:07] <Alakazamz0r> liquidboy, http://www.windowmaker.info/documentation.php?show=userguide&chapter=2
[08:08] <kek> Thegino: you can install a firefox tar.gz package from mozilla.com by just unpacking it in your home directory with the GUI and then double-clicking the program file, but what they are trying to say is it's not needed since it's already installed
[08:08] <trelayne> ok thanks all
[08:08] <liquidboy> Alakazamz0r, yep i read that, and i know how to maxamize in windowmaker, i was just wondering if there was an easier way

[08:14] <nekostar> make sure to enable all repositories and install packages for your vid card
[08:14] <january> nekostar: but looks much better than the regular setup
[08:14] <nekostar> etc
[08:14] <bum> you can graphically install w/synaptic
[08:14] <kek> Thegino: but what do you want to update? firefox? or an extension?
[08:14] <nekostar> synaptic is teh win
[08:14] <january> nekostar: its thinkpad x40, there should not be any problems
[08:14] <nekostar> ah
[08:14] <nekostar> yup
[08:14] <nekostar> thats an ibm
[08:14] <nekostar> you need that alternate install disk
 synaptic is teh win <---negative
[08:15] <tarelerulz> I found site that just works under internet exporer
[08:15] <january> nekostar: which one?
[08:15] <tarelerulz> It has some interactive parts
[08:15] <Thegino> update from browser not add/remove or synaptic pack manager just for this install
[08:15] <tarelerulz> http://www.unforgettablelanguages.com/frames_a6.html
[08:16] <bum> you can't update if you have the latest version already
[08:16] <bum> 2.0 is latest stable firefox
[08:17] <Thegino> no cause the firefox in ubuntu is totem i wanted i new fresh firefox was called totem-firefox
[08:17] <nekostar> january lemme find this link
[08:17] <bum> when downloading tar.gz you can choose to open with Xarchiver
[08:17] <stray77> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? 2.6.15-27-686
[08:17] <bum> that might be what you want
[08:18] <nekostar> http://www.leopold.dk/~martin/IBMx40UbuntuInstall.html
[08:18] <nekostar> there
[08:18] <nekostar> look at that
[08:18] <nekostar> that guy has the same lappy as j00 january
[08:18] <nekostar> ^^;;
[08:19] <nekostar> and i just came across that page like 20 min ago looking for something else lol
[08:19] <kek> Thegino: totem has nothing to do with firefox. also i don't actually think you can use the firefox built-in update manager if you are running the firefox ubuntu package. if your problem is that you don't have firefox 2.0 you should upgrade to the latest version of ubuntu which has firefox 2.0
[08:19] <scotchi> salut ^
[08:19] <kek> Thegino: (except you can use it to update extensions)

[08:21] <tarelerulz> any of you play wma or wmv files with totem and not get sound

[08:21] <nekostar> tarelerulz i play that stuff with mplayer in linux
[08:22] <nekostar> but you should see if you have w32codecs installed
[08:22] <Thegino> brb all

[08:23] <stray77> What is the location of the directory of my C header files that match my running kernel assuming my kernel is 2.6.15-27-686?  I'm trying to install vmware tools and its asking me this question.
[08:23] <kek> tarelerulz: ouch, isn't IE in wine slow?
[08:23] <kek> and buggy
[08:23] <runpain> yup
[08:24] <nekostar> MitchM if it doesnt recognize your card you probably need the floppy to boot the raid bit
[08:24] <nekostar> ^_^
[08:24] <tarelerulz> Well, I use IE for stuff that will not work with fireforx
[08:24] <nekostar> ie+linux=~_~
[08:24] <kek> ok
[08:24] <cafuego> stray77: /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include
[08:24] <bum> Opera also works well for things that don't seem to work qutie right in firefox
[08:24] <runpain> hi neko
[08:24] <bum> quite
[08:24] <stray77> thanks ill try that
[08:24] <cafuego> stray77: It means you need the 'kernel-headers-$(uname -r)' package
[08:24] <tarelerulz> I mean the fact that wine will run IE is great.
[08:24] <MitchM> nekostar, to "boot the raid bit" ?
[08:24] <cafuego> Which you don't have installed, otherwise vmware setup would have found them.

[08:37] <bum> or read the README file
[08:37] <lili> bonjour
[08:38] <runpain> Install:
[08:38] <runpain>     - Check paths in Makefile
[08:38] <runpain>     - make
[08:38] <runpain>     - Test it: SOS=Sosa ./xfedor -f fkp2.bdf
[08:38] <runpain>     - make install
[08:38] <runpain>     - The man page is preformatted.  You have to install it by
[08:38] <runpain>       hand in the right place.
[08:38] <runpain> whats that mean
[08:39] <nekostar> eh
[08:39] <nekostar> you might not have the dependancies for whatever your trying to make
[08:39] <nekostar> and install checkinstall for SURE
[08:39] <nekostar> always do sudo checkinstall make install
[08:40] <nekostar> instead of make install
[08:40] <wastrel> hi
[08:40] <nekostar> it makes a package that one can actually remove
[08:40] <nekostar> ^^;;

[08:42] <nekostar> #mepis maybe ?
[08:42] <nekostar> dunno
[08:42] <cr4ftyb0n35> nekostar: what's the deal on putting up doc pages on ubuntu? Any idea? I am doing a fairly involved custom install and could document the process and put it up on the main site...
[08:42] <Healot> runpain: distrowatch.com
[08:43] <runpain> ill try
[08:43] <nekostar> well there is that chan runpain
[08:43] <nekostar> but not much ppl in it
[08:43] <nekostar> cr4ftyb0n35 um
[08:43] <nekostar> document everything
[08:43] <nekostar> and start a thread in the forums first
[08:43] <nekostar> get input
[08:43] <cr4ftyb0n35> nekostar: Good idea. thx
[08:43] <nekostar> and have ppl try on other system configurations
[08:43] <nekostar> and it goes from there typically from what ive seen
[08:44] <nekostar> ive nto tried to do that personally
[08:44] <nekostar> XD
[08:44] <cr4ftyb0n35> neko: thx mate
[08:44] <rudivs> my gnome login process has stopped after the password but before the splash screen. All I have is a brown screen and a mouse arrow. Any idea how to fix it?
[08:44] <nekostar> runpain
[08:44] <nekostar> btw
[08:44] <runpain> ya
[08:44] <nekostar> as root you must MUST use visudo to edit /etc/sudoers
[08:44] <nekostar> visudo -f /etc/sudoers
[08:44] <nekostar> like so
[08:44] <nekostar> as root
[08:44] <bum> simliar on BSD
[08:45] <rudivs> is there likely to be a problem in some config file somewhere?
[08:45] <nekostar> well
[08:46] <nekostar> one could as root do chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers
[08:46] <nekostar> that would fix permissions
[08:46] <nekostar> then do how i mentioned it
[08:46] <nekostar> format is:
[08:46] <nekostar> username ALL=(ALL) ALL
[08:46] <nekostar> and save
[08:46] <runpain> ok will try
[08:46] <runpain> # sudoers file.
[08:46] <runpain> #
[08:46] <runpain> # This file MUST be edited with the "visudo" command as root.
[08:46] <runpain> #
[08:46] <runpain> # See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.
[08:46] <nekostar> insert your username on your system

[08:48] <Thegino> hello all again
[08:48] <bum> I'm out
[08:48] <jedi__> i followed the official nvidia/xgl beryl wiki http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/nVIDIA but i got no session option for beryl, tho i entered it.
[08:48] <bum> oh yeah, thegino http://projects.collabora.co.uk/darcs/farsight/gaim-farsight/plugins/
[08:48] <bum> bye
[08:48] <runpain> man this linux stuff so hard to learn
[08:48] <nekostar> wb Thegino late bum
[08:48] <zroberous> yes it is
[08:48] <nekostar> runpain but its worth it
[08:48] <BHSPitMonkey> I have a problem... I've been trying to install edgy onto my friend's dell PC.  On the LiveCD, it boots up to a certain point (presumably, until when X starts) and then I just get a black screen; Unresponsive. Can't switch TTYs. Can't do ANYTHING.  Now, I installed with the Alternate CD, and it installs fine, but when I boot up the computer... same as with the LiveCD.
[08:48] <runpain> God bless you bum
[08:48] <cr4ftyb0n35> runpain: stick with it. switch from mepis to ubuntu :D
[08:48] <BHSPitMonkey> I had a "black screen" issue in Dapper, but that was because his video card setup is weird. I could switch to TTY1 and fix the xorg.conf. Not so, anymore.
[08:49] <nekostar> yry
[08:49] <runpain> i tried ubuntu it was even harder
[08:49] <nekostar> actually
[08:49] <nekostar> BHSPitMonkey
[08:49] <nekostar> i had the same problem
[08:49] <nekostar> get the alternate cd
[08:49] <nekostar> and install without being connected to internet
[08:49] <jedi__> can anyone say why beryl isint in my session manager even though ive put it there?
[08:49] <cr4ftyb0n35> runpain: why was it harder?
[08:49] <nekostar> then update packages after configging ethernet
[08:50] <BHSPitMonkey> nekostar, I'm afraid we didn't have the same situation at all, then
[08:50] <Thegino> are .rpm files install the same way as .tar files
[08:50] <runpain> when i boot up could not get to the desktop keept puting in pass word and it would hang at logon
[08:50] <BHSPitMonkey> nekostar, A)  I DID install via the Alternate CD, the resulting installation wouldn't boot.   B) Internet didn't exist in this scenario.
[08:50] <kek> Thegino: no, check out the alien package
[08:50] <nekostar> oi
[08:50] <nekostar> thats not good
[08:51] <Thegino> yea i d/l but dont know how to use
[08:51] <nekostar> can you boot to rescue mode or whatever?
[08:51] <runpain> had all the graphic
[08:51] <nekostar> i'm installing from that cd right now
[08:51] <runpain> no tried every thing
[08:51] <nekostar> gawd i hope it works...........
[08:51] <nekostar> im installing dapper not edgy tho
[08:51] <BHSPitMonkey> nekostar, whenever edgy would get to the X starting step, (on the LiveCD OR on an installed system), I'd get an irrecoverable black screen
[08:52] <tarelerulz> There is fork in Gaim that is working on webcams ,but how to you install it so you don't mess up your other intalled on
[08:52] <kek> Thegino: alien package.rpm; dpkg -i package.deb
[08:52] <BHSPitMonkey> nekostar, I wasn't there long enough before, but that's my next step the next time I'm over there.
[08:52] <runpain> i installed the christian edition it did the same thing
[08:52] <BHSPitMonkey> gonna gut into xorg.conf
[08:52] <nekostar> eh

[09:05] <pluma> I just removed the kopete package and manually compiled and installed kopete 12.2 and it still claims to be 11.1 if I check its About info. WT?
[09:05] <tarelerulz> Xfce is cool it loads fast
[09:05] <runpain> gota go folks got to get up at 500am its 2 now here in wonderful EAST TEXAS
[09:06] <pluma> Also, "kopete -v" returns 12.2
[09:06] <runpain> GOD BLESS!!
[09:06] <nataku> ok, I was wrong
[09:06] <nataku> HAL is running
[09:06] <nataku> however
[09:06] <nataku> system still hangs at shutdown
[09:07] <pluma> "God bless"? Heretic.
[09:07] <nekostar> well
[09:07] <nekostar> after many fails
[09:07] <nekostar> i am left with lots of failures on /dev/hdc
[09:07] <nekostar> which seems to eb the cdrom
[09:07] <Healot> KDE is Doom(ed)
[09:07] <nekostar> and i cant get the case open for the friggan life of me
[09:07] <nekostar> damn dell 2400
[09:07] <nekostar> !dell
[09:07] <Ubotwo> Sorry, package searching is not available - try http://packages.ubuntu.com
[09:08] <nekostar> there should be something that says get windows
[09:08] <nekostar> ~_~
[09:08] <sky123> hello..does anyone know what the sparc channel is for ubuntu?
[09:08] <pluma> #sparc?
[09:08] <sky123> thats generic...getting ubuntu on sparc...thats different
[09:08] <tarelerulz> I download the autopack for gaim fork with web cams and when I try to open it says something about gedit not being able to do it
[09:08] <pluma> #ubuntu-sparc or #sparc-ubuntu? ^^
[09:09] <nekostar> does anyone know if there is a low-mem option for installation ?
[09:10] <sky123> neither one of those works
[09:10] <Healot> with alternate-server CD, nekostar
[09:10] <sky123> !sparc
[09:10] <Ubotwo> Have a look here for Docs http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/install/sparc/ KnownIssues and TODO are on the wiki.
[09:10] <nekostar> Healot i have hte alternate install cd
[09:10] <nekostar> does the server option exist ?
[09:10] <nekostar> like it does on the debian install disks?
[09:10] <Healot> yeah the second install
[09:10] <Healot> option*
[09:10] <nekostar> yeah
[09:10] <Healot> it clearly says "install server"
[09:11] <nekostar> im just getting mass errors of /dev/hdc
[09:11] <Healot> with any server application, actually
[09:11] <nekostar> lemme see if i can see that
[09:13] <nekostar> Healot while watching the tty4 screen
[09:13] <nekostar> i see it fail on the cdrom
[09:13] <nekostar> and fail to open it
[09:13] <nekostar> then it mvoes on..............
[09:13] <nekostar> could it be jsut that hardware is incompatable?
[09:13] <Healot> your hardware fault?
[09:13] <Healot> likely
[09:15] <tarelerulz> it says those autoinsatll pacags are shell script . I try sudo ./shell script and it says ./ is not comand after sudo
[09:16] <nekostar> then it starts talking about inability to create symlinks while formatting the partitions....
[09:16] <sky123> After searching on google..it appears this is the channel to ask about sparc install on ubuntu....
[09:16] <cj_> hello
[09:16] <sky123> has anyone dealt with partitioning a netra T1
[09:16] <cj_> can i join your furum
[09:17] <nekostar> cj_ www.ubuntuforums.org
[09:17] <nekostar> and yes everyone can join
[09:17] <melenkurion> morning
[09:17] <nekostar> sky123 oi?
[09:17] <dsb> hola
[09:17] <nekostar> i know nothing about that unfortunately
[09:17] <nekostar> sup dsb
[09:17] <cj_> guys do you know how to open a perl text files?
[09:18] <cj_> thanks
[09:18] <dsb> a few things, I'm learning though!
[09:18] <nekostar> o wait
[09:18] <nekostar> more errors............
[09:18] <dsb> I'm trying to RATD and do google searches as best I can
[09:18] <sky123> specifically either dapper or edgy on the netra t1....its specific to using software raid..as the installer doesnt use the hardware raid??
[09:18] <rudivs> is there some gnome session file that might need to be flushed after an incomplete shutdown process? my gnome login freezes after entering the username and password. I can still open other terminals though.
[09:18] <dagnabit> hi cj - did you want to run a perl script, or edit it?
[09:19] <cj_> i want to edit it..
[09:19] <sky123> use vi
[09:19] <dagnabit> you can open it in your favorite editor.  it's simply a text file.
[09:19] <sky123> it should open up
[09:19] <sky123> or joe, or emacs or whatever
[09:19] <Robbster> can I install edgy over NFS?
[09:20] <drdeath>
[09:20] <cj_> but its list as unknown file!!!
[09:20] <dsb> excuse my ignorance, but is there a ?buntu friendly channel to discuss general topics, such as mysql vs. postgresql?
[09:20] <dagnabit> that's ok.  force it.
[09:21] <wastrel> !offtopic
[09:21] <Ubotwo> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:21] <sky123> dsb: that is really an open forum type question...and each will have his/her opinion...ie referential integrity..etc
[09:21] <nataku> ok.
[09:21] <nataku> this is starting to annoy me.
[09:21] <Robbster> will edgy install over NFS?
[09:21] <nataku> my ethernet card was working fine the first 2 times I booted
[09:21] <nataku> and now it's broken
[09:22] <sky123> Robbster: My initial answer would be yes...but Ive only done such an install via PXE..and TFTP
[09:22] <dagnabit> nataku: huh.  its broiken if you boot from a live cd or other os as well?
[09:22] <nataku> no.
[09:22] <nataku> I was running windows XP for the longest time
[09:22] <nataku> and the live CD saw it fine
[09:22] <nataku> and I'm seeing now it seems to be my wireless card
[09:22] <nataku> uh
[09:23] <nataku> on boot
[09:23] <cj_> thanks dagnabit
[09:23] <nataku> I get the repeating error of
[09:23] <nataku> "ipw2100: eth0: Failed to start the card."
[09:23] <nataku> over and over
[09:23] <bagelis_> hi. i have a problem with ubuntu 6.06. The shutdown and restart button disappear from the menu when i click the red button. there is only logout and change user button.
[09:23] <melenkurion> i got a slow mouse here.. and i want more speed within minimal moving of my hand.. from the acceleration my hand hurts :(
[09:24] <nekostar> bagelis_ are you on a secondary user by chance?
[09:24] <mdke> hiya. I need to do a recipe in procmail which filters on something in the Subject: which contains square brackets. Do I need something special to escape the [] ?
[09:24] <nataku> WHAT
[09:24] <bagelis_> no ony 1 user.
[09:24] <nataku> I just rebooted out of spite
[09:24] <nataku> and it worked again
[09:24] <nataku> can anyone tell me what's going on
[09:25] <melenkurion> anyone has a hint to fix that? i'm used to work with high sensivity like in ego-shooters ;)
[09:25] <dsb> sky123: indeed... I was just wondering if there existed some type of 'off-topic' type of channel for ?buntu users to discuss various software packages; their weaknesses vs strengths, various problems with certain hardwares, etc.
[09:26] <sky123> id ask here..take a chance
[09:26] <wastrel> bagelis_:  do you use startx to start the GUI ?  or login from gdm ?
[09:26] <sky123> !off-topic
[09:26] <Ubotwo> Sorry, package searching is not available - try http://packages.ubuntu.com
[09:26] <nataku> melenkurion, one sec, lemme go look
[09:26] <sky123> !offtopic
[09:26] <Ubotwo> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:26] <wastrel> i already did that :/
[09:26] <wastrel> nobody listens to me...
[09:27] <sky123> lol
[09:27] <nataku> ok, melenkurion, go to System > Preferences > Mouse
[09:27] <wastrel> anyway offtopic is pretty dead atm
[09:27] <nataku> then the 'Motion' tab
[09:27] <bagelis_> i login from gdm
[09:27] <nataku> there are all your sensitivity settings
[09:27] <Robbster> sky123: I've downloaded and booted the netboot image, but now I'm stuck :(
[09:27] <wastrel> i used to work for a company that used postgres , supposedly it scales better
[09:27] <wastrel> mysql is way more popular tho, due to the apache integration thing that i know nothing about
[09:27] <sky123> wastrel: sunny youd mention that..as this place has become quite  off topic recently...imho
[09:27] <dsb> I'm new to ubuntu. I'm giving it a go converting from gentoo
[09:27] <sky123> ;)
[09:27] <mdke> come on, must be a procmail user here
[09:28] <nataku> dsb, should have an easy time then heh
[09:28] <nataku> gentoo was where I learned linux
[09:28] <melenkurion> not really, if I choose a high sensivity and no acceleration, the mouse won't become faster
[09:28] <wastrel> mdke:  \[
[09:28] <dsb> well, one would think so
[09:28] <melenkurion> already tried this nataku
[09:28] <nataku> melenkurion, right, so turn up the acceleration
[09:28] <Robbster> sky123: is the TFTP installation easy?
[09:28] <sky123> Robbster: Id check the /etc/exports file on the NFS server to see if it allows i guess in this case..any host in your subnet to connect..
[09:28] <mdke> wastrel: thanks.
[09:28] <nataku> the Gnome mouse sensitivity is a function of both sliders
[09:28] <nataku> instead of a single slider
[09:29] <melenkurion> i have problems with my hands, nataku .. so i can't move them quickly
[09:29] <dsb> I did however, find out some more details about the packaging system by using aptitude
[09:29] <nataku> ok
[09:29] <Robbster> that's not the prob. how do I tell the installer to a) use NFS and b) where the server is :)
[09:29] <melenkurion> with minimal movement i want maximum mouse motion
[09:29] <nataku> if you turn up the acceleration, it will make the mouse pointer jump much more quickly
[09:29] <melenkurion> acceleration won't work if i move my hand slowly ;)
[09:29] <nataku> crud, good point
[09:29] <nataku> hmmmm
[09:29] <dsb> I've never really used debian though
[09:29] <sky123> RObbster: a little involved..with TFTP as you need to tell the dhcpserver how to interface with tftp and then either use PXE to look for the kernel image that will then boot the system up. Some hints are in the wikis and edubuntu uses tftp for LTSP project..so check those out.
[09:30] <dsb> so this dpkg and dpkg-deb thing is new to me
[09:30] <nataku> melenkurion, I seem to be stumped
[09:30] <mdke> wastrel: can I do: /([blah] |[blah] ) ?
[09:30] <Robbster> sky123: any chance of telling the ubuntu installer to use NFS and point it to the NFS server? I can boot an image from CDROM.
[09:30] <wastrel> mdke:  dunno, never tried :]
[09:30] <Robbster>  - just can't install off it :(
[09:31] <mdke> wastrel: ok! we'll see
[09:31] <mdke> wastrel: it seems to makes sense?
[09:31] <melenkurion> never happens alot, nataku ? ;)
[09:31] <wastrel> mdke:  never seen that syntax before
[09:31] <nataku> heh, happens a LOT
[09:31] <mdke> wastrel: or maybe it should be (/[blah] |/[blah] )
[09:31] <jadacyrus> What PORT does remote desktop run on?
[09:31] <sky123> Robbster: does the netboot have a install from NFS option? IF so then you CAN do that...and youll need point to the boot image on the nfs server with a path...that has been exported in /etc/exports on the NFS server.
[09:32] <nataku> melenkurion, I recommend you google around a little for some sort of enhanced mouse drivers for linux
[09:32] <nataku> I unfortunately know relatively nothing about this, heh
[09:32] <mdke> wastrel: the (|) bit makes it an alternative, I believe
[09:32] <melenkurion> i wonder, why this feat isnt supported yet.. especially for graphical designers that's really important
[09:33] <Robbster> sky123: I've booted the netboot image and I can't see any references to NFS. I've scoured the google, but not come up with any hits. I've been able to install other linux distros over nfs (mandriva) so I figure it's gotta be possible
[09:33] <sky123> Robbster: Id play around with both...get the NFS working...then play with dhcp/tftp/pxe...its well worth the effort.
[09:33] <nataku> yeah, that's a good point melenkurion
[09:33] <wastrel> i should have gone to sleep 4 hours ago
[09:33] <wastrel> bye now
[09:34] <mchonis> hey all, anyone know how to get surround sound working on a Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live 24 Bit External USB soundcard?  It took some doing just to get stereo sound out of it, but If I could get surround I'd be ohsohappy
[09:34] <dsb> I want to get NFS working also, but I'm stuck on mysql
[09:34] <Robbster> nfs is working. dhcp is up. Just need some glue to get them all working to get the install up. :(
[09:34] <sky123> Robbster: that IS odd....I have some GOOD experience with Centos nfs AND tftp/pxe with kickstart..works like a charm...i cant imagine ubuntu wouldnt be ablt to do the same..
[09:34] <Robbster> kickstart?
[09:35] <dsb> I had nfs working with redhat, gentoo, and mac osx, but I'm not about to start something new, until I get one problem resolved, and I'm still unsure if I have a corrupt packaging system
[09:36] <dv5237> damn i was playing a movie and sudenly the sound stops can someone help me? (its not the movie for sure)
[09:36] <sky123> Robbster: centos, redhat...yeah..its a file that is scripted to partition, install rpms, and do post config of any/all systems in a network..simply throw it on a tftp/dhcp server with your cdson it, and wham after 7 mins complete system build.. Im looking like you...for the equivalent here...
[09:38] <jadacyrus> what do you need to fileshare between two linux computers?
[09:38] <sky123> Robbster: you are definitely thinking along the right lines...the network install is key
[09:38] <xSUSHi> dsb: yea i had to use samba
[09:38] <xSUSHi> smbfs
[09:38] <sky123> lemme scour the net to see if i see something that'll get the job done.
[09:38] <xSUSHi> jadacyrus: ubuntuguide.org
[09:38] <jadacyrus> ty
[09:39] <dsb> jadacyrus: ssh, scp, ftp
[09:40] <sky123> Robbster: here you go - http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A6199815
[09:41] <jediMaster> omg, just installed beryl.Restarted but i get the brown(?) screen after the login.PC disk busy, but nothing else.HELP
[09:41] <dsb> mysql will not install properly, shall I try postgresql
[09:41] <dnite> if i change my username's password, will the new sudo password change as well?
[09:41] <Healot> dsb: xampp for windows
[09:41] <Healot> linux* oops
[09:41] <mchonis> nobody knows how to get 5.1 out of a USB soundcard?
[09:41] <dsb> ?
[09:42] <xSUSHi> usb soundcard?   that sounds like it sucks
[09:42] <dv5237> damn i was playing a movie and sudenly the sound stops can someone help me? (its not the movie for sure)
[09:42] <mchonis> well.. it worked great with windows.. better than stereo laptop sound anyway
[09:42] <sky123> jediMaster: might wanna try to ctrl-alt-bkspc then if you made a copy of the xorg.conf file to something like xorg.conf.old then you can replace it, reboot and try again...to see if you get it restored.. to what it was..
[09:43] <SperMite> Ok i just did the dumbest thing Ever,, (rm -rf /etc/samb) Now after i tried to reinstall it I get ( http://pastebin.com/825563)   Can some PLEASE help me
[09:43] <jediMaster> sky123, i cant do anything it hangs booting into x after the login
[09:43] <dsb> ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP
[09:43] <dsb> how do I fix that?
[09:44] <dnite> SperMite, you might need to purge the samba package w/ dpkg --purge .. it removes all the configuration files and stuff.. so when you reinstall it should recreate them..
[09:44] <jediMaster> dv5237 do cds n other sytems beeps work?
[09:44] <yakumo> hello im trying to install a tar.gz install, the installation guide tells me to use ../configure && make, and  error mssg appear  configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH... anyone know what i should do???
[09:44] <sky123> jediMaster: before you log in...id try the ctrl-alt-bkspc to get to shell... then replace the xorg.conf.old file to xorg.conf...you DID make a copy to old of the original file right??
[09:45] <BeanBag> is there a way to make normal ubuntu dapper into xubuntu?
[09:45] <jediMaster> sky123, i did
[09:45] <SperMite> dnite yeah i tried that and get the same results
[09:45] <dv5237> jediMaster: mp3 doesnt work either i hear some shocking sound for a mil sec envery 3 secs
[09:45] <dromer> aaaog, somehow, when I boot my desktop (with ubuntu 6.06), like half of the time it won't connect to the internet
[09:45] <Healot> BeanBag: yeah install xubuntu-desktop and remove all the GNOME-related files :)
[09:46] <sky123> jediMaster: that was yes you made a copy? or yes youve already replaced it..and it still blows up
[09:46] <dromer> now twice in a row allready :(
[09:46] <BeanBag> Healot: Is there a how to somewhere that will walk me through it?
[09:46] <dnite> SperMite, ah.. well then.. i'm not sure. i had a problem when i removed configuration files and i just have to re apt-get install it, run dpkg --purge packagename and then reinstall it again and it worked ok.. not sure what else to offer ya bud..
[09:46] <dv5237> when i restart my audio deamon i get this msg: warning: 'alsactl store' failed with error message 'alsactl: save_state:1190: Cannot open /var/lib/alsa/asound.state for writing can someone help
[09:46] <jediMaster> sky123, my bad - yes i did make a copy, ill try replacing it. Thanks
[09:47] <dromer> aaaog, somehow, when I boot my desktop (with ubuntu 6.06), like half of the time it won't connect to the internet, twice in a row now allready :/
[09:47] <SperMite> dnite . well thanks anyways
[09:47] <dnite> good luck
[09:47] <sky123> jediMaster: thats the first step...then get the damn thing restored...re-trace your steps trhough the how to for beryl and see if it is missing something..
[09:48] <Healot> removing GNOME files >> the hard part, because removing ubuntu-desktop doesn't remove them
[09:48] <jediMaster> sky123, ay capt'n :)
[09:48] <MeisterZopf> why remove gnome? why not just install debian?
[09:48] <sky123> jediMaster: when i did an upgrade on my dapper...it broke a lot of shi** ...but when i did a fresh install of edgy...wham fixed.
[09:48] <mchonis> um.. thanks anyway i guess
[09:48] <mchonis> gnite
[09:49] <sky123> jediMaster: once you get it working...youll like beryl..its pretty pimp
[09:49] <sky123> they should have named it pimpmyX
[09:49] <BeanBag> Healot: How do i remove it then?
[09:49] <jadacyrus> Okay.. Im trying to use sshfs.. I loaded the fuse module and added myself to the fuse group. Also /dev/fuse exists. However I'm getting operation not permitted when trying to use /dev/fuse ...any ideas?
[09:50] <Healot> BeanBag: manually, usually remove libgtk2.0 :0
[09:50] <jediMaster> sky123, uncanny. I had a working xgl on dapper, but the upgrade was messy, so fresh installed edgy, automatix2 put on the nvid driver .8xxxx .
[09:51] <jediMaster> sky123, my card is FX5200
[09:51] <Robbster> sky123: seems like the way to go. now I just need to figure out what the network controller is :)
[09:51] <Robbster> sky123: Thanks I'll let you know how it goes.
[09:51] <sky123> cool
[09:51] <dromer> anybody know where I can get qt2-dev ?
[09:52] <cj_> Could not open device "/dev/radio0" ! i'm using gnome radio?
[09:52] <jediMaster> sky123, what ver nvid driver you using?
[09:52] <cj_> and i get this error
[09:52] <SperMite> dnite =)) I uninstalled it with dpkg then installed it with synaptic And All is better!
[09:52] <sky123> jediMaster: stangely its an intel card....on my Sony...but it finally worked
[09:53] <sky123> jediMaster: with my laptop its an ATI and ive really never got beryl working right on the poor bastard.
[09:53] <dnite> SperMite, good to hear. x=)
[09:53] <cj_> how to use this gnome radio??

[09:54] <jediMaster> sky123, hey thanks im gonna have another go - im currently talking from the darkside (XP) , force..is...gett..ing...weak.... :)
[09:55] <sky123> jediMaster: truly...lol..
[09:55] <Alabuntu> how do i stop music files from automatically playing when I rest the cursor over them?
[09:56] <cj_> how to play some music in gnome radio
[09:57] <dromer> anybody know where I can get qt2 ?
[09:57] <nataku> ok
[09:57] <nataku> this is beyond weird
[09:57] <jadacyrus> Okay.. Im trying to use sshfs.. I loaded the fuse module and added myself to the fuse group (Logged out and back in). Also /dev/fuse exists. However I'm getting operation not permitted when trying to use /dev/fuse ...any ideas?
[09:57] <dromer> nataku: it is ?
[09:58] <nataku> either Ubuntu loads my hardware drivers fine and hangs on reboot, or it can't load the drivers and it hangs on shutdown
[10:02] <christianp> hi all
[10:03] <sky123> judacyrus: try sudo modprobe fuse?
[10:03] <christianp> i'm trying to install wine in my amd_64, i download sources and try tools/wineinstall (as in Readme)
[10:03] <tameritoke> Hi people. I have a problem configuring my xserver on kubuntu
[10:03] <christianp> but i obtain this error: checking for C compiler default output file name...
[10:03] <christianp> configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[10:03] <christianp> what's the matter?
[10:03] <tameritoke> How can I do it by hand?
[10:04] <tameritoke> from the console...
[10:05] <christianp> tameritoke, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:05] <nataku> does anyone know why my 6.06 installation would hang at shutdown?
[10:05] <nataku> I added 'acpi=force' and that seemed to fix it for about 2 reboots, but now it's hanging again
[10:06] <bosaton> Hi
[10:08] <sky123> judacyrus: did that work??
[10:09] <Caplain> do i need anything to run m ati tv card?
[10:10] <hokatichenci> How can you print a list of all the installed software?
[10:10] <bosaton> bosaton, hi
[10:11] <sky123> hokatichenci: dpkg --list
[10:11] <rudivs> I'm trying to debug my gnome startup (which stops just after password), and one thing I'm trying is dpkg-reconfigure gnome-control-center. It looks like that's freezing also. Any ideas why?
[10:12] <luisr> connecting

[10:50] <smoenux> my TwinView is not the same since Edgy. when I maximize Apps, it maximizes over both monitors. on Dapper, it only maximized on the window's monitor. Does anyone know how I can fix this ?
[10:53] <Laosboyme> what is twinview?
[10:53] <Laosboyme> lol
[10:54] <smoenux> lol
[10:54] <smoenux> it's two monitors

[10:54] <Laosboyme> thx
[10:55] <LinuxHelp> How do I decrease the priority of an entire repository using /etc/apt/preferences ? I know how to change an individual package, just not an entire repository
[10:55] <Laosboyme> Could somebody tell me how  to download msfonts
[10:55] <LinuxHelp> Laosboyme, try msttcorefonts ?
[10:55] <nuts> hey can ne1 explain me which package i need... if i get a gcc error message like : pan.c:7:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
[10:55] <Flannel> nuts: do you have build-essential installed?
[10:55] <nuts> dunno
[10:55] <nuts> lol
[10:55] <sky123> cryftyb0n35: it is messy to get it going (no doubt if its the first time)...but...after you have it dialed in...there is no turning back..youll want to do ALL your installs this way.
[10:56] <LinuxHelp> Laosboyme, please keep your questions in the main #ubuntu channel
[10:56] <nuts> Flannel: whats the package called?
[10:56] <sky123> nuts: might want to try build-essential packages...
[10:56] <Flannel> nuts: build-essential
[10:57] <Laosboyme> okay
[10:57] <sky123> nuts: sounds like you have kernel-headers missing perhaps?
[10:57] <LinuxHelp> Laosboyme, apt-get install msttcorefonts ?
[10:57] <nuts> sky123: which apt-get install would that be?
[10:59] <sky123> nuts: apt-get install build-essential
[10:59] <sky123> !build-essential
[10:59] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[11:00] <nuts> sky123: thank you very much
[11:00] <sky123> nuts: that means that in /etc/apt/sources.list you'll potentially need to enable the commented out repositories
[11:00] <sky123> np
[11:00] <nuts> yup its working.. im downloading :))
[11:00] <Laosboyme> msstcorefont downloading exe files!

[11:00] <PecisDarbs> hi crowd, has anyone succeeded writing DVD+R DL with Nautilus CD Burner?
[11:00] <nuts> sky123: woooooooooorx =)
[11:01] <ameyer> PecisDarbs: I'm assuming it would work
[11:01] <Laosboyme> is it really needed
[11:01] <sky123> nuts: thats what im talkin about! SWeeet!
[11:01] <cpk1> is there a way to change the color depth without changing xorg.conf/restarting x?
[11:01] <LinuxHelp> Laosboyme, yes
[11:01] <PecisDarbs> ameyer: I get some strange error, but I am not sure, that is not about lacking of hard disk space. Nautilus CD Burner creates temporary image before writing, right?
[11:02] <ameyer> PecisDarbs: I'm pretty sure it does
[11:02] <Laosboyme> Why?
[11:02] <PecisDarbs> damn
[11:02] <LinuxHelp> Laosboyme, weird licensing restrictions
[11:02] <Laosboyme> oh.

[11:05] <henri_> hi guys! I'm running 64-bit ubuntu, and i'm wondering if there's a way for me to download a 32bit version of 'libcrypto0.9.7'?

[11:08] <defrysk> dromer http://seveas.imbrandon.com/dists/dapper-seveas/all/
[11:08] <LinuxHelp> saddam21, hi, how to annoyingly ask the same question twice in one minute?
[11:08] <Joe_CoT> libdvdcss isn't in any of the official repos. you need to get it third party ^ like the seveas repos
[11:08] <cpk1> hrmm i think i went over this before with myself, because I have libdvdcss2 but its not in any of my repos anymore
[11:09] <saddam21> exscuse me
[11:09] <henri_> rickyfingers: turns out i already had it
[11:09] <henri_> just had to compile against /usr/lib32
[11:09] <henri_> instead of /usr/lib
[11:09] <henri_> silly me
[11:10] <dromer> defrysk: it's in there .. but no candidate for install :/
[11:10] <defrysk> http://seveas.imbrandon.com/pool/dapper-seveas/extras/libdvdcss2_1.2.9-0.0ubuntu2_i386.deb

[11:10] <dromer> I meant: not with apt-get :P

[11:28] <cafuego> ubinsp: You don't anyway. 'sudo apt-get install libdvdread3; sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh'
[11:28] <LinuxHelp> spot on, thats the correct drive then
[11:28] <jimcooncat> is wordpress the simplest way to make a blog on your own machine?
[11:28] <LinuxHelp> so its /dev/hdc1 that you need to mount
[11:29] <LinuxHelp> TrolLlock, sudo mkdir /mnt/windrive
[11:29] <Laosboyme> My sd card won't mount!
[11:29] <Laosboyme> please help me mounting it
[11:29] <ubinsp> cafuego:  I taugh that there was a pb with the libdvdcss and the type of licence of Linux but I'm not a expert
[11:29] <LinuxHelp> and then add this line to /etc/fstab: "/dev/hdc1	/mnt/windrive	ntfs	ro	0	0"
[11:30] <crazy_bus> I've fixed my keyboard
[11:30] <cafuego> ubinsp: No, it's just that studios aren't happy with people being able to watch DVDs on machines that aren't levied with royalties.
[11:30] <LinuxHelp> TrolLlock, and after all that do "sudo mount /mnt/windrive"
[11:31] <Laosboyme> how to remove pass prompting of firestarter!
[11:31] <ubinsp> cafuego: fuck royalties and studio and microsoft ... ;-)
[11:32] <DBO> less on the swearing please =)
[11:32] <ubinsp> swearing ca veut dire quoi? hum...
[11:33] <ubinsp> I think I have understood
[11:33] <ubinsp> Who has a dell inspiron 9400/E1705 ? When I want to increase or decrease the light of my laptop screen, the session start again, so I can't change it. Who ca help me?
[11:35] <ubinsp> Who has a dell inspiron 9400/E1705 on 6.10? When I want to increase or decrease the light of my laptop screen, the session starts again, so I can't change it. Who can help me? I worked well on my old inspiron 9300 on 6.06I
[11:36] <TrolLlock> trolllock@trolllock-desktop:~$ sudo mount /mnt/windrive
[11:36] <TrolLlock> mount: can't find /mnt/windrive in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[11:36] <LinuxHelp> TrolLlock, paste the contents of /etc/fstab somewhere
[11:36] <TrolLlock> somewhere??
[11:36] <LinuxHelp> Like rafb.net ?
[11:37] <tuskernini> how do i reclaim a MBR that windows took?
[11:37] <ubinsp> Who has a dell inspiron 9400/E1705 on 6.10? When I want to increase or decrease the light of my laptop screen, the session starts again, so I can't change it. Who can help me? that functioned well on my old inspiron 9300 on 6.06.
[11:38] <ubinsp> tuskernini: with rescuecd
[11:38] <ubinsp> tuskernini: or with a ubuntu liveCD
[11:38] <tuskernini> ubinsp, thanx, i knew but how
[11:38] <TrolLlock> http://rafb.net/paste/results/ulYD9I36.html
[11:39] <tuskernini> ubinsp, should i search the forems?
[11:39] <ubinsp> tuskernini: simply by launching the LiveCD
[11:39] <LinuxHelp> (12:29:36) LinuxHelp: and then add this line to /etc/fstab: "/dev/hdc1	/mnt/windrive	ntfs	ro	0	0"
[11:39] <TrolLlock> how do i do that?
[11:39] <LinuxHelp> sudo nano /etc/fstab
[11:40] <tuskernini> ubinsp, simply launching the cd will change nothing on my system... i will have to reinstall the MBR and i want to know howto from live cd
[11:40] <ubinsp> then with a little reflexion you will be able to reinstall grub
[11:40] <mtyhome> hi
[11:40] <ubinsp> in a konsole
[11:40] <mtyhome> nobody in here?
[11:40] <tuskernini> ubinsp, will try
[11:40] <jimcooncat> mtyhome, we're here
[11:41] <GNeu> anyone know how to get Ubuntu (Edgy) to tell me what it's doing when booting?
[11:41] <tuskernini> ubinsp, thanx
[11:41] <mtyhome> well, do you know why my sata 300gb reiserfs disks take so long to mount?
[11:41] <cr4ftyb0n35> GNeu: Use the alternate CD and you recover the older installer...so that's probably the best way
[11:41] <TrolLlock> ok i think ive mounted it now
[11:42] <mtyhome> how can i avoid to wait forerver at boot time while still mounting the disks>
[11:42] <mtyhome> ?
[11:42] <cr4ftyb0n35> mtyhome: Anything in the logs?
[11:42] <GNeu> cr4ftyb0n35, everything is working fine, I just want the checklist to be going through on boot
[11:42] <GNeu> cr4ftyb0n35, every boot
[11:42] <miquijo> Ola
[11:42] <jimcooncat> mtyhome, I have good luck on several machines with reiserfs so I'm thinking it's the SATA
[11:42] <robbie> what package generates the xorg.conf file?
[11:42] <mtyhome> cr4ftyb0n35, nope
[11:42] <miquijo> alguem do brasu??
[11:42] <cr4ftyb0n35> Gneu: Aah, so you want it at boot time...
[11:42] <miquijo> BRASIL
[11:43] <GNeu> cr4ftyb0n35, well rather than (or as well as) the Ubuntu Splash loader
[11:43] <ubinsp> tuskernini: in the console write grub then something like setup (hd0,0) it depends on yr HD type
[11:43] <palski> GNeu, cr4ftyb0n35: removing silent option from menu.lst
[11:43] <cr4ftyb0n35> GNeu: Ctrl-Alt-F1...?
[11:43] <arcade> How do I switch from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 in Ubuntu 6.06 ? :)
[11:43] <cr4ftyb0n35> Ah ok
[11:43] <TrolLlock> it says that i do not have permission necessery to view the contents of windrive
[11:43] <cr4ftyb0n35> palski: thx
[11:43] <GNeu> palski, cr4ftyb0n35, thanks alot
[11:43] <nuked_omen> how can you mount a vfat partition as root and give users the privileges to create/delete files in it
[11:44] <ubinsp> Who has a dell inspiron 9400/E1705 on 6.10? When I want to increase or decrease the light of my laptop screen, the session starts again, so I can't change it. Who can help me? that functioned well on my old inspiron 9300 on 6.06.
[11:44] <LinuxHelp> TrolLlock, that sucks, try "sudo ls /mnt/windrive/" to see if its working, and then ask someone else in the channel how to change permissions
[11:45] <visik7> mvo
[11:45] <TrolLlock> ok well its working alright
[11:45] <ubinsp> TrolLlock: what is yr pb?
[11:45] <TrolLlock> pb?
[11:45] <cafuego> TrolLlock: You need to set the permissions at mount time, you can't chown/chmod on a Windows fielsystem, as those don't support unix style file mermissions.
[11:45] <ubinsp> no problem?
[11:45] <nuked_omen> i hate people who speak in short forms and think they know better english
[11:45] <arcade> None who knows how to switch away from UTF8 -> ISO-8859-1 ?  On 6.06
[11:45] <casano> I grabbed this configure-trackpoint tarball.. is there package tools in ubuntu6.10 to automate the installation, or do I configure make install normally from shell ?
[11:46] <pzn> I need someone to explain me how to do somethings in launchpad.net bugs, I'm new to it. can I contact anyone in private?
[11:46] <cafuego> TrolLlock: The easiest way is to add 'uid=XXX,umask=002' in the mount ioptions field in your fstab file. XXX should be your numeric user id.
[11:46] <JeffBell> I have a new monitor that is capable of higher resolutions than the precious LCD.  How can I get Ubuntu to detect it?
[11:46] <nuked_omen> cafuego, how can you find the user's numeric id?
[11:46] <cafuego> nuked_omen: Same for you, mount it as a specifc user/group, correct umask, give permissions to that group
[11:46] <cafuego> nuked_omen: `id`
[11:46] <octan> nuked_omen make sure the mount point "dir" has user premissions,, also mount it with uid and gid
[11:47] <TrolLlock> *doesnt understand nothing*
[11:47] <cafuego> octan: the mount point permissions are irrelevant.
[11:47] <nuked_omen> alright.. i'll try
[11:47] <cafuego> TrolLlock: How did you mount it?
[11:47] <TrolLlock> with sudo ? dunnop (first time using linux)
[11:47] <octan> cafuego, not entirly corrent.. if the dir has root root , you cant edit/delete files in ther
[11:48] <octan> as user
[11:48] <mcella> can someone help me...
[11:48] <cafuego> octan: after moutning, the mounted dirs perms are used, not the mount point perms.
[11:48] <cr4ftyb0n35> whatsup mcella?
[11:48] <mcella> in edgy, I'm getting all notifications bubbles on the bottom panel...
[11:48] <cafuego> octan: those perma/ownership are set by params to `mount'.
[11:48] <mcella> very annoying :-D
[11:48] <cr4ftyb0n35> mcella: Afraid I've never seen or heard that problem
[11:49] <mcella> cr4ftyb0n35: never mind
[11:49] <octan> cafuego, well. i use to change thouse premission.. but he need to look in to uid and gid
[11:49] <cafuego> octan: yup
[11:49] <mcella> that's strange since my friend (on edgy also) is getting them in the right position :-(
[11:49] <ubinsp> Who has a dell inspiron 9400/E1705 on 6.10? When I want to increase or decrease the light of my laptop screen, the session starts again, so I can't change it. Who can help me? that functioned well on my old inspiron 9300 on 6.06..
[11:49] <JeffBell> Can Ubuntu detect a new monitor, when you connect it?  Mine seems to think the old monitor is connected.
[11:50] <cr4ftyb0n35> mcella: driver issues?(highly unlikely)
[11:50] <TrolLlock> cafuego: the linuxhelp guy said i should mount it with sudo mount /mnt/windrive
[11:50] <mcella> cr4ftyb0n35: no, I think it's something related to a nasty bug in libnotify or notication-daemon... :-/
[11:51] <cr4ftyb0n35> mcella: hmm...
[11:51] <TrolLlock> cafuego: and that was what i did
[11:51] <cafuego> TrolLlock: That emans you should have a line in the /etc/fstab file that mentions it.
[11:51] <TrolLlock> yes
[11:52] <cafuego> TrolLlock: ok. Now on that line there is an entry in the <options> column
[11:52] <TrolLlock> it says ro on that line
[11:52] <cafuego> Ok. What is the first number you get when you type 'id' ?
[11:52] <TrolLlock> id?
[11:53] <bidha2k> do you know which pacakge i can get base64 tools..
[11:53] <cafuego> id
[11:53] <palski> GNeu, sorry, I meant quiet option
[11:53] <TrolLlock> first one is 1000
[11:53] <TrolLlock> uid=1000
[11:54] <cafuego> ok. Your user id is 1000.  What you need to do then is make sure the winpartition is mounted as YOUR user id. You cna do that by changing 'ro' ro 'ro,uid=1000' in the options column.
[11:54] <azcazandco> Hi folks, I need some advice regarding my computer configuration & installing new drives
[11:54] <JeffBell> My desktop resolution is too low.   I bought a bigger monitor, but Ubuntu won't change my resolution.
[11:55] <cafuego> JeffBell: You'll need to reconfigure X and tell it about the new screen. 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[11:56] <TrolLlock> ok should it say ro,uid=1000 or 'ro' ro 'ro,uid=1000'
[11:56] <cafuego> ro,uid=1000
[11:56] <ubinsp> Who has a dell inspiron 9400/E1705, with a nvidia 7900GS graphic card on 6.10? When I want to increase or decrease the light of my laptop screen, the session starts again, so I can't change it. Who can help me? that functioned well on my old inspiron 9300 on 6.06..
[11:56] <cafuego> I typo3d :-)
[11:56] <JeffBell> cafuego, thank you.  i will try that!
[11:56] <TrolLlock> :P
[11:57] <TrolLlock> its still saying that i dont have permission
[11:57] <cafuego> TrolLlock: Yup. Now unmount it and remount it.
[11:57] <cafuego> sudo umount /mnt/windrive; sudo mount /mnt/windrive
[11:58] <azcazandco> I currently have 1 x70gb sata drive & 1 x 200gb sata drive (with my os on it), I have 3 x 250gb IDE drives I want to install but by my understanding, if I put an OS on one of them the ide will boot before my sata drive, I want to install edgy eft 64bit as my main OS and have a win xp partition for playing my old games etc, can anyone advise me on the best way to go about doing this without screwing up my system and loosing all my sata stu
[11:58] <webmind> good morning
[11:58] <TrolLlock> YAY THX ALOT!! ^^
[11:58] <cafuego> azcazandco: tell the bios to boot from sata.
[11:58] <cafuego> TrolLlock: enjoy :-)
[11:58] <webmind> is it a target of ubuntu to match the quality of a release with it's name? :)
[11:58] <gerhard_> Beryl aint compatible with my X200 right?
[11:59] <TrolLlock> lol ok now another question
[11:59] <TrolLlock> im trying to start a movie and it says i dont have codecs most probly... what do i do now?
[11:59] <azcazandco> cafuego: but do I not need to install xp first, followed by edgy on one of my ide drives?  I kinda want to do a clean install of edgy if I can without screwing everything up
[11:59] <cafuego> TrolLlock: install codecs!

[12:07] <azcazandco> i.e. 1) keep my install as is and install the 3 ide drives 2) install Edgy Eft 64 bit on a new IDE drive 3) install XP on 2nd IDE + add it to grub?

[12:08] <ivan> Hi everybody, I am having a question about Synaptic. I am trying to lock a version of gaim to 2.0b3, but it has no effect. I select packages gaim and gaim-data and them click on packages and then click on lock version, but it has no effect. can somebody give me a tip on how it can be done from the command line?
[12:09] <Williamts99> ivan, it is something like sudo apt-get hold gaim
[12:09] <DarkMageZ> azcazandco, i've done it before. disable the other drives in the bios and then install windows on the drive you want. then reenable and add windows drive to grub :
[12:09] <octan> azcazandco you can do that,, but that will screw up your lilo or grub,, meaning you need a rescue cd for linux to reinstall just grub or lilo
[12:09] <Williamts99> Trolllock, I send you a private message
[12:09] <ivan> ok, thanks. will try.. didn't see anything in the man page for apt-get about it...
[12:09] <azcazandco> so I could use an edgy eft live cd?
[12:10] <octan> yes
[12:10] <ALLISSON> funck your
[12:10] <octan> azcazandco, that would work just fine
[12:10] <ivan> hm... i get a E: Invalid operation hold
[12:10] <azcazandco> okay, I only have win2k at the moment, I need to buy the upgrade, do you know if I can do win2k, fix grub, then upgrade without it breaking?
[12:11] <octan> azcazandco,but i rather download supergrub live cd
[12:11] <Williamts99> ivan, give me a sec
[12:11] <azcazandco> octan: on my way to grab it
[12:11] <octan> azcazandco, wiih a live cd you porbelay need chroot .. dont need to with supergrub :)
[12:12] <azcazandco> How badly can I screw this up?
[12:12] <octan> not much at all
[12:12] <azcazandco> that is a dumb question...  ignore it
[12:12] <octan> lol.. i'll do that :P
[12:12] <azcazandco> okay, you have given me some confidence to do this
[12:13] <Williamts99> ivan, it's sudo aptitude hold gaim

[12:13] <Williamts99> ivan, sorry I got it mixed up
[12:13] <azcazandco> have had these drives sitting about for a while, I know I have done something to my install of dapper / upgraded to edgy so I want a clean system to work from
[12:13] <azcazandco> these drives give me a chance to sort everything out
[12:14] <JeffBell> cafuego, I ran through all that dialog about the xserver-xorg ...now I have to reboot for the changes?
[12:14] <azcazandco> octan: will you be about for a while?  I am going to dl all I need then install these drives
[12:14] <livingdaylight> Can someone tell me why signiture is not adding to thunderbird?
[12:15] <octan> azcazandco, yes i'll be here a while
[12:15] <azcazandco> cool...  I may need to pick your brains via a live cd when I break stuff lol
[12:15] <benner> i installed jashaka 2.0 on my toshibanotebook with ati grafic. i'm using fglrx-driver with working gl-support. but i keep getting a weired komment everytime i try to start it: "Segmentation fault". does anybody know what that means and how i can solve it?
, it looks like i found a way to do it, it is done with apt_preferences or with a config file /etc/apt/preferences. It is done by 'pining' the version
[12:15] <ivan> i think =)
[12:16] <octan> azcazandco, lol :P you wount break much with supergrub :) its a pretty strait forward tool to use, :)
[12:17] <azcazandco> cool
[12:17] <azcazandco> octan: how much better than the dapper 64bit is edgy?  is there better support for stuff now?
[12:18] <azcazandco> want to know if I am better just going for 32bit
[12:18] <octan> azcazandco, dapper is more stable,,
[12:18] <octan> me got amd64 too
[12:18] <azcazandco> what os do you run?
[12:18] <octan> 2.6.15-23-amd64-generic
[12:18] <octan> dapper
[12:19] <bXi> isnt dapper at 2.6.15-27 ?
[12:19] <azcazandco> so should I grab the dapper 64bit installer then?
[12:19] <octan> o.0
[12:19] <benner> anyone here using jashaka and had a similar problem?
[12:19] <azcazandco> as opposed to the edgy 64bit
[12:20] <octan> azcazandco.. i bet you run into some problems ther..
[12:20] <octan> just my opinion
[12:20] <JeffBell> It worked!  THANK YOU CAFUEGO!!
[12:20] <azcazandco> with what? 64bit in general?
[12:20] <octan> edgy 64
[12:21] <cafuego> JeffBell: :-)
[12:21] <cafuego> JeffBell: incidentally, just logging out, hitting ctrl-alt-backspace and logging in would be fine too (that restarts X)
[12:21] <azcazandco> okay so dapper 64 is easy enough now?  I know when I first looked at it people were saying it was harder to get stuff running on it
[12:22] <octan> azcazandco, there is still issues with flash in 64 bit.. since its beeing a 32 bit app, ,and you need some 32lib to get it to work in 64 bit. that about it,
[12:22] <Williamts99> ivan, glad you got it figured out
[12:22] <azcazandco> cool
[12:22] <azcazandco> gonna dl it now
[12:23] <ivan> yup.. just checked it out.. works like a charm via the config file.. strange why synaptic didn't want to work with it.. oh well, i'm happy that it works
[12:24] <MattJ> Does anyone have any experience with /writing/ to NTFS partitions in Ubuntu?

[12:26] <ivan> well, i'm not afraid of bugs, still got it working
[12:26] <ivan> MattJ, have a look at this: http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=675
[12:27] <ivan> I didn't try it myself, but I bookmarked it just in case i need it (I don't have ntfs partitions)

[12:32] <tx22> livingdaylight:  hmm, I've never used a signature..
[12:33] <octan> napg, do you have a router?
[12:33] <napg> my computer will be the network server so that the other computers have internet and to share some folders between them
[12:33] <ivan> to set a signature, click on Edit -> Account Settings
[12:33] <napg> yes
[12:33] <octan> alright.
[12:34] <guadalinex> HOLA
[12:34] <ivan> then click on the the checkbox attach this signature and choose a file with the signature, thats it
[12:34] <tx22> is there a DVD version of ubuntu with lots more stuff on it?
[12:34] <napg> in win xp everything goes well, when xp server and ubuntu client
[12:34] <guadalinex> HAY ALGUIEN?
[12:34] <bimberi> tx22: yes
[12:34] <napg> but i can't get an unbuntu server for xp/ubuntu clients
[12:34] <guadalinex> ????????????????
, yup, i already download a kubuntu dvd and a ubuntu dvd
[12:35] <tx22> bimberi:  Oh yeah
[12:35] <ivan> look in the torrents
[12:35] <octan> napg, thats easy to setup.. whats you knowlage about networking?
[12:35] <guadalinex> DO ESTA?
[12:35] <tx22> ivan: what extra stuff does it have on the DVD?.. can I see a comparison from the dvd ?
[12:35] <guadalinex> TORRENTS?
[12:35] <tx22> ops *cd
[12:35] <bimberi> tx22: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/edgy/release/
[12:35] <tx22> guadalinex:  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/dvd/current/ torrents
[12:35] <livingdaylight> ivan, do you know where signature are for home account?
[12:36] <Williamts99> guadalinex, please press your caps lock key
[12:36] <OmniD> Does GIMP seriously not have a line tool
[12:36] <OmniD> I cannot find it
[12:36] <OmniD> Although this should be a very basic function
[12:36] <benjamin> guadalinex no capslock por favor.
 there is a lot of stuff, i don't know where to check the exact change log, but i used apache from there, mysql, php and some other stuff
[12:36] <Yoric> OmniD: no, no line tool iirc.
[12:36] <OmniD> Why?
[12:36] <tx22> ivan:  ok thanks
[12:36] <napg> i'm have average knowledge, in xp nothing is a problem, in linux i'm still kinda new
, what do you mean by the signature for the home account?
[12:36] <Yoric> Cause lines are not that common in pictures.
[12:36] <OmniD> That's a very very basic function. That's terrible.
[12:37] <octan> napg, ;(
[12:37] <Yoric> OmniD: http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Straight_Line/
[12:37] <napg> but i already know lots of stuff in ubuntu so go ahead
[12:37] <livingdaylight> ivan, opposed to newsgroup or any other account. my pop3 account from where i send email
[12:38] <OmniD> Using a feature called the shift key
[12:38] <mtyhome> hi again
[12:38] <Yoric> OmniD: and, more seriously, because you can draw a line with any tool, iirc.
[12:38] <octan> napg, on the server,, make a virual eth0:1
[12:38] <OmniD> What is this "shift key"
[12:38] <Yoric> OmniD: you're kidding, right ?
[12:38] <mtyhome> if i want to create n files numbered with only one command, how can i use the []  to numerate the files?
[12:38] <OmniD> no, not really
[12:38] <OmniD> I mean
[12:38] <OmniD> Yes yes really
[12:38] <OmniD> I am kidding
, in the account settings, just select the account that you want to add the signature to
[12:39] <OmniD> to the maximum
[12:39] <Yoric> OmniD: pfeww
[12:39] <Yoric> Has anyone succeeded in getting Evolution to filter out spam ?
[12:39] <livingdaylight> ivan, yes, i do that but there is not box for signature
[12:40] <Williamts99> Yoric, yes do a google search on spamassasin and evolution, you will get very nice results :-)
[12:40] <mtyhome> hey!
[12:41] <azcazandco> octan: any suggestions on master slave config for these ide drives?  I am not much of a hardware man
[12:41] <Williamts99> yoric, also you could Edit->Preferences->Mail Preferences->Junk->Check incoming mail for junk and remote test will help, but it is a bit slower.
[12:41] <livingdaylight> Yoric, also i heard bogofilter
[12:41] <Yoric> Williamts99: yes, I'm just under the impression that these google occurrences refer to old versions of Evolution.
[12:41] <rausb0> mtyhome: you can't use []  to do that
[12:42] <napg> create the virtual server with sudo ifconfig eth0:1 <ip> up ?
[12:42] <lee-nucks> how do I disable ipv6 ?
[12:42] <mtyhome> rausb0, do i have to use a for or a while?
[12:42] <rausb0> mtyhome: shell patterns with []  only match on existing files
[12:42] <Yoric> Williamts99: Although I do use Check incoming mail for Junk, there is no X-Spam or X-Bogosity or anything else in the mail headers.
[12:42] <bimberi> !ipv6 | lee-nucks
[12:42] <ubotu> lee-nucks: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[12:42] <ivan> livingdaylight strange, paste a screenshot to the pastebin, maybe I will be able to help you out
[12:42] <rausb0> mtyhome: you could use something like: touch file{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}
[12:42] <livingdaylight> Yoric, http://johnleach.co.uk/words/archives/2005/09/15/180/
[12:43] <rausb0> mtyhome: the comma separated lists in {} will be expanded
[12:43] <rausb0> mtyhome: this will get you file00 .. file99
[12:43] <Williamts99> yoric, gmail takes care of 99% of the spam that I receive, so it hasn't been much of a problem for me.
[12:43] <mtyhome> rausb0, thx
[12:44] <mtyhome> rausb0, can i use []  with ls? or only with grep
[12:44] <rausb0> mtyhome: you can use []  with both ls and grep
[12:44] <Yoric> livingdaylight: thanks, I'll take a look
[12:44] <dade`> you can use a bash manual
[12:44] <rausb0> mtyhome: but ls only does shell patterns (actually the shell does, not ls) and grep does regexp
[12:45] <livingdaylight> Yoric, tell me if it is the busniness
[12:45] <mtyhome> rausb0, so ls [a-z]  should list all files from a to z?
[12:45] <dooglus> mtyhome: to make 43 files, I do this:   i=0; while ((i < 43)); do touch file$(printf %02d $i); ((i++)); done
[12:45] <dooglus> mtyhome: []  is for matching existing filenames in bash, not for generating new filenames
[12:45] <ReFuS4L>  a febbraio 2007 v?
[12:46] <rausb0> mtyhome: no. ls [a-z]  will list you only the files with exactly one lowercase letter
[12:46] <dooglus> rausb0: that depends on your locale I think.
[12:46] <mtyhome> rausb0, ok i figured it out, what i said before could be done with ls [a-z] *
[12:47] <mtyhome> rausb0, but only listing lowercase beginning file and dirs
[12:47] <dooglus> rausb0: look: $ touch a B c D e; ls [a-z]
[12:47] <dooglus> a  B  c  D  e
[12:47] <rausb0> dooglus: argh. i hate locales.
[12:47] <lee-nucks> thanks bimberi
[12:47] <dooglus> rausb0: 'B' is between 'a' and 'z' here...
[12:47] <mtyhome> dooglus, thx
[12:48] <bimberi> lee-nucks: np :)
[12:49] <octan> azcazandco, yes. 1 master per ide port and 1 slave per ide port
[12:49] <octan> :p'
[12:49] <incorrect> im trying to get dhcpd to push updates into bind, dhcpd user is part of the bind group and the rndc.key is set to 640,  however when dhcpd starts up it can't read the rndc.key file
[12:49] <azcazandco> octan: not sure I follow
[12:49] <azcazandco> ash yes I do
[12:49] <azcazandco> ah I do even
[12:49] <azcazandco> which is which...  on the cable I mean
[12:50] <octan> depends on which cable type you got
[12:50] <azcazandco> okay
[12:50] <azcazandco> off for a look
[12:50] <azcazandco> 64 bit looks a bit scary btw
[12:50] <octan> some cables say which is which
[12:50] <azcazandco> dunno if I am making the right move
[12:51] <matoledo> ola!
[12:51] <octan> azcazandco, 64 it faster :) i got alot of performance improvment with 64
[12:51] <matoledo> alguien contesta?
[12:51] <Arcad3> !es
[12:51] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[12:52] <azcazandco> did you have any hassles running apps?
[12:52] <azcazandco> I wanna get compiz themes on the go this time round also
[12:52] <ashb1990> hello
[12:53] <dooglus> azcazandco: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_select
[12:53] <azcazandco> dooglus: thanks
[12:54] <Arafangion> Where can I find a 680MB Ubuntu ISO?
[12:54] <Arcad3> what shall i use to add/remove users in proftp/mysql/... More easy?
[12:54] <Arafangion> I suspect that the cd's I have do not support overburning to nearly 700MB.
[12:55] <Arcad3> something like a cPanel
[12:56] <azcazandco> Arafangion: I am actually trying to burn 699mb onto a 700 just now so will tell you how i get on...  it gave a warning
[12:56] <Arafangion> azcazandco: I suspect that the result is highly dependant on the quality of your media.
[12:56] <cpk1> Arafangion: there should be a way to add/remove packages from the iso
[12:56] <Arafangion> cpk1: "Should" isn't good enough :)
[12:57] <Arafangion> cpk1: There "should" be an iso that works for _standard_ cd's.
[12:57] <cpk1> well i am almost positive but i forget what its called so i say "Should" =P
[12:57] <Arafangion> Heh :)
[12:58] <Fuzzy76> Anyone able to give me some pointers on dual-head with ati proprietary drivers? I've got it running (sort of). But my secondary display has a larger desktop than resolution, so I need to scroll it around. I also have a broken pointer on my secondary display and OpenGL support disappeared. :-/ I've read all guides and troubleshooting tips, to no avail. :(
[12:58] <dromer> running dapper
[12:58] <Arafangion> cpk1: I suspect that it involves mounting the image using loopback, copying it, chrooting into it, apt-get remove blah blah blah, delete any applicable .deb's, whatever, then remastering the iso, then burning that - too much work!
[12:58] <cpk1> dromer: what are you compiling?
[12:58] <dromer> gchempaint
[12:59] <dromer> chemsuite I gave up :/
[01:00] <cpk1> Arafangion: there is this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/APTonCD?highlight=%28cd%29%7C%28apt%29 but i dont think thats what you want
[01:00] <azcazandco> Arafangion: succeeded
[01:00] <Arafangion> Fuzzy76: I _had_ it working perfectly, then I installed kubuntu-desktop - never got it working properly :(
[01:00] <azcazandco> maxell cdr
[01:00] <Arafangion> azcazandco: I see you don't use 100 cd's for $20.
[01:00] <Fuzzy76> :'(
[01:00] <Arafangion> azcazandco: These are 'RiDATA' cd's.
[01:00] <azcazandco> nope I got 50 for about 12
[01:01] <Arafangion> cpk1: Are my suspicions correct - lots of work?
[01:01] <Fuzzy76> I wonder if trying the open-sourced driver might be worth a shot. I can live without OpenGL if I get dual-head to work like it should....
[01:01] <Yoric> livingdaylight: ok, applied the filters (I think) -- I just don't quite feel it.
[01:01] <Arafangion> azcazandco: Anyway, basically, your media allows overburning - mine don't.
[01:01] <dromer> cpk1: any idea ?
[01:01] <Arafangion> azcazandco: Personally, ubuntu should provide _regular_ and _extended_ versions.
[01:02] <cpk1> Arafangion: that link i gave you is all nice and gui'fied but i dont know if it is implemented yet =P
[01:02] <cpk1> dromer: is this during make?
[01:02] <Arafangion> cpk1: So, it _is_ too much work :)
[01:02] <dromer> during configure
[01:02] <cpk1> skip configure
[01:02] <azcazandco> true
[01:02] <dromer> ok
[01:02] <cpk1> do make from the base directory
[01:03] <azcazandco> I am thinking about installing edubuntu for my daughter
[01:03] <cpk1> Arafangion: however this looks like far too much for a lazy person =P https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[01:04] <cpk1> dromer: also is this what you want? gchemutils
[01:04] <dromer> I have it
[01:04] <dade`> dade@choo:~/builds$ git clone rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bcollins/ubuntu-2.6.git ubuntu-feisty
[01:04] <dade`> does not work for me
[01:04] <dade`> are there server problems ?
[01:06] <Arafangion> cpk1: Don't get me wrong, once upon a time I did everything manually and from scratch :)  I just want things to work these days.
[01:08] <netstar> somehow trying to install compiz beryl and all these other things the Xorg binary has been removed and xserver-xorg thinks it's installed, how can I fix this, I didn't go randomly deleting files
[01:10] <rolando> hola
[01:10] <rolando> is it possible to set a different language for a different account in my pc?
[01:11] <rolando> under system-languages it sets a global language so things like FF or amule are in the same language in different accounts
[01:11] <ailean> roland, do you want different apps in different languages?
[01:11] <ailean> rolando, even
[01:12] <rolando> yes in different accounts
[01:12] <roland> ailean: no thanks, ask rolando
[01:12] <roland> :))
[01:12] <ailean> rolando, or just different language settings for each account
[01:12] <ailean> roland, got it :)
[01:12] <ailean> sorry
[01:12] <roland> np
[01:12] <rolando> firefox wont change language unless i change the "global" language
[01:12] <ailean> oh
[01:12] <ailean> the user preferences should be under your home directory...
[01:13] <rolando> ailean: system-languages
[01:13] <superkirbyartist> Every time I restart ubuntu it changes the keyboard to a language I don't like and I have to go to the terminal to change it.  How do I fix that?
[01:13] <rolando> to change that you need a sudo password, and then i go to the other account and its been changed
[01:14] <superkirbyartist> So if I type "sudo setxkb..."
[01:14] <superkirbyartist> The change will be system-wide?
[01:14] <superkirbyartist> I typed "sudo setxkbmap ca -variant fr".
[01:14] <ailean> rolando, select the languages you want to be supported
[01:15] <ailean> rolando, then on the login screen, you can select which language to use for each user
[01:15] <sc0tt_> :P
[01:15] <jedi__> Just installedberyl, but now i cant move windows & the close n minimise squares r gone?   Also, Kopete is better, has more features, and is more stable than Gaym.
[01:19] <rolando> ailean: ok, but i think nie, ill keep looking through the menus, but im starting to think that it not possible
[01:19] <ailean> superkirbyartist, that is someone's work, don't slag it off
[01:20] <seshomaru123> hi can anyone tell me where TTF fonts are stored?
[01:20] <ailean> rolando, yes, it is
[01:20] <superkirbyartist> They say "oh we're working on video" and never do it.
[01:20] <ailean> rolando, i've done it
[01:20] <ailean> rolando, just as you can select whether you want Gnome or KDE when logging in, you can select language
[01:20] <mypapit> superkirbyartist??
[01:20] <mypapit> superkirbyartist: kopete? is it like gaim?
[01:20] <superkirbyartist> A lot.
[01:21] <superkirbyartist> With Webcams, a better account manager, etc.
[01:21] <rolando> ailean: maybe, are you using gdm or kdm?
[01:21] <mypapit> superkirbyartist: ok.. i shall try it.. kinda cool if it supports webcams, it works with yahoo/msn too?
[01:21] <ailean> roland, gdm
[01:21] <ailean> rolando, gdm
[01:21] <superkirbyartist> Webcams yes.  Other protocols are there, no webcam.
[01:21] <rolando> ok ill try
[01:21] <ailean> roland, sorry, did it again
[01:22] <roland> :)
[01:22] <superkirbyartist> Your chat interface looks cleaner too.
[01:22] <jedi__> does beryl remove "maximise,minimize,close" - theyve disappreared
[01:22] <bayzider> What is the instalation path of of firefox?
[01:23] <rolando> jedi__: the same happens to me
[01:23] <rolando> right click on beryls icon
[01:23] <jedi__> rolando, so how you close stuff
[01:23] <rolando> and then
[01:23] <rolando> goto emerald themes
[01:23] <jedi__> rolando, also does it allow you to move windows?
[01:23] <superkirbyartist> Yes, maybe Gaim is someone else's works, but they only make Red hat packages, what's the point?  And the latest Gaim still isn't stable, and the "stable" 1.5.0 crashes too.
[01:23] <rolando> then you pick one and borders come back
[01:23] <bayzider> Any one know?
[01:23] <gyop> Hello
[01:23] <ailean> please guys, don't discuss beryl here

[01:26] <ailean> rolando, very good :)
[01:26] <jedi__> rolando,i highlighted 1 but nothing happens
[01:27] <bayzider> ='(
[01:27] <jedi__> rolando, u swedish?

[01:27] <jedi__> kk
[01:28] <rolando> gonna try gdm to see the language thing
[01:28] <skinnison> Does anyone know how to get an Audio PCI 128D sound card to work with Eft?
[01:29] <toogreen> hi guys, I have a problem with direct rendering.. have the intel gma950 chipset... when i run the live CD direct rendering is enabled, but after installation it,s not, and I have no idea why
[01:29] <ubinsp> Who has a dell inspiron 9400/E1705, with a nvidia 7900GS graphic card on 6.10? When I want to increase or decrease the light of my laptop screen, the session starts again, so I can't change it. Who can help me? that functioned well on my old inspiron 9300 on 6.06.
[01:29] <toogreen> I also tried Fedora and there was no issues with direct rendering, right after install
[01:30] <bayzider> How do I install macroemdia flash 8 into my firefox?
[01:30] <toogreen> can anyone help?
[01:31] <cpk1> how can i increase how many lines my tty keeps?
[01:32] <webben> bayzider, 1) you can't there is no flash 8 for Linux
[01:32] <webben> bayzider, but...
[01:32] <webben> bayzider, 2) there is a flash 7.x and there is a flash 9 beta
[01:32] <webben> (I recommend the later)
[01:33] <bayzider> webben: then how do I get flash 9 beta?
[01:33] <ubinsp> but there is a bug in flash9 + mozilla on 6.10
[01:33] <ubinsp> or firefox
[01:33] <webben> ubinsp, a bug? seems to largely work for me.
[01:33] <ubinsp> you lust had 2 code line
[01:34] <bayzider> umm none of this helping me =\ how do I install it?
[01:34] <webben> ubinsp, /possibly/ makes a difference I mainly use the official Mozilla binary but I doubt it
[01:34] <bayzider> /get it
[01:34] <webben> ubinsp, is it a bad bug
[01:34] <ubinsp> for me, firefox and mozilla start, worked 0,1s and closed
[01:34] <webben> bayzider, patience
[01:35] <webben> bayzider, http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2006/10/beta_is_live.html
[01:35] <yutaro> #Arequipa
[01:35] <webben> bayzider, you'll need to extract it, put the library (ends in .so) somewhere, and then link it to your firefox plugins directory
[01:35] <ubinsp> Who has a dell inspiron 9400/E1705, with a nvidia 7900GS graphic card on 6.10? When I want to increase or decrease the light of my laptop screen, the session starts again, so I can't change it. Who can help me? that functioned well on my old inspiron 9300 on 6.06.
[01:35] <njan> ubinsp, please stop continually asking that.
[01:35] <bayzider> webben: so I download it from here http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer9/ ?
[01:36] <webben> e.g. ln -s /path/to/<flash9plugin>.so /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/
[01:36] <webben> bayzider, yep
[01:36] <Keyseir> ubotu, please tell ubinsp about forums
[01:36] <bayzider> Once I have it downloaded what do I do ?
[01:36] <webben> bayzider, unpack the archive
[01:36] <vindrake><PHONE_NUMBER>
[01:36] <bayzider> ok one sec
[01:36] <webben> pull out the .so file and put it somewhere sensible
[01:37] <webben> bayzider, then do the linking command I just gave you an example of
[01:37] <bayzider> ln -s /path/to/<flash9plugin>.so /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/
[01:37] <bayzider> just but that in the terminal and press enter?
[01:38] <webben> bayzider: well obviously you need to adjust it to the actual path and filename of your flashplugin
[01:38] <webben> bayzider, and you'll need to do that as sudo
[01:39] <ubinsp> forums, forums, forums...
[01:39] <bayzider> sudo ln -s /path/to/Desktop/u.so /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/    (I renamed the foler as u* (with out the star) )
[01:41] <bayzider> Webben it didnt work
[01:41] <webben> bayzider, er what's "the foler"
[01:41] <bayzider> folder*
[01:42] <webben> bayzider, so you didn't extract the so from the archive?
