[03:17] <acojlo> where to talk about watching tv on linux?
[03:17] <blinker> AAA: it lets me log in through VT - normal login flashes the VT when correct info is used, doesn't otherwise
[03:17] <AAA> Morydd  vim /etc/network/options and change forward to use, restart the interface
[03:17] <Dr_Willis> acojlo,  #mythtv perhaps.
[03:18] <Storkme> cdubya, how about for all users?
[03:18] <AAA> Morydd  er, change it to say yes for forward
[03:18] <basd> hello all
[03:18] <cdubya> Storkme, /etc/profile ?
[03:18] <bmrtin> i have ubuntu 6.06 and i cant play mp3 files with amarok or any other player for that matter
[03:18] <AAA> hi basd
[03:18] <GoLoGo> I need help with the Ubuntu Live CD Desktop Install - The screen has little distorted areas and when installing it jsut freezes. Thanks
[03:18] <basd> before you call me a n00b and start killin' me

[03:18] <basd> I have burned an ISO of latest ubuntu
[03:18] <mdmjb> Hey.  I'm using a Linksys wmp54g card -- it runs the radio okay, detects SSIDs, but it doesn't seem to be talking IPv4?  It doesn't do DHCP and can't route packets through the connection... any ideas? ^^
[03:18] <cdubya> Storkme, that help?
[03:19] <Storkme> cdubya, not sure, let me try
[03:19] <juanca7777_> hello everyone
[03:19] <AAA> mdmjb  apt-get install wavemon then run wavemon in a terminal. do you have a good connection?
[03:19] <basd> and I have Dell lInspiron 5100, my boot from CD hangs where it says "mounting root"
[03:19] <basd> I tried it a few times to no avail
[03:19] <AAA> basd  is your HDD good?
[03:19] <basd> yes
[03:20] <Morydd> AAA: I don't show a file /etc/network/options
[03:20] <basd> I can run the other OS fine
[03:20] <juanca7777_> i am having some problems with gnome-themes-manager after upgrading via apt-get upgrade
[03:20] <mdmjb> AAA: I think so, but I'm running on the LiveCD right now.
[03:20] <AAA> basd  and this is a live CD?
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> basd: when you are at the grub menu did you check the cd for errors with the self test
[03:20] <juanca7777_> it gives me this error
[03:20] <basd> yes, AAA
[03:20] <basd> it's a live CD, and I have an option to install Ubuntu on HDD
[03:20] <juanca7777_> The default theme schemas could not be found on your system. This means that you probably don't have metacity installed, or that your gconf is configured incorrectly.
[03:20] <bayzider> can some one find me the drvier for a AC'97 Audio Controller  sound card
[03:20] <Zambezi> AAA, I runned the command, but when I press gft and press tab I get gftp and the commandline. :-(
[03:20] <prophet> i minimize all my apps and they disappear into someting not into the panel at the bottom?
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> !ac97
[03:20] <ubotu> I know nothing about ac97 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:21] <AAA> modprobe snd_ac97_codec
[03:21] <Storkme> cdubya, afraid not. i put $PATH=$PATH:/foo/bar in /etc/profile and opened a new terminal.. $PATH is still the same
[03:21] <AAA> basd modprobe snd_ac97_codec
[03:22] <neoth> if anyone has a minute im having some problems with getting X to start
[03:22] <basd> AAA, I wish I knew what that meant
[03:22] <AAA> cdubya  it lives in ~/.bash_profile
[03:22] <mdmjb> AAA: I think I've seen what you're talking about, but I don't know where to find it?  Is it on the LiveCD?
[03:22] <AAA> basd  modprobe inserts modules into your kernel, my guess is that the driver is already loaded and you just need to run alsamixer and turn the volume up (it is off by default)
[03:23] <BeepAU> how can I associate irc with chatzilla from firefox?
[03:23] <gekko`> neoth: if you don't tell us your problem we can't help you
[03:23] <SirGrok> Is there a way to choose and join an encrypted wireless network via the terminal?
[03:23] <AAA> Morydd  and this is in ubuntu?
[03:23] <Morydd> yes.
[03:24] <AAA> hrm. what lives in /etc/network then?
[03:24] <basd> AAA, the boot process actually hangs at that step, I do not have a command prompt to manipulate anything
[03:24] <neoth> well it cant find a pointer device on my laptop
[03:24] <cdubya> AAA, yeah, for an individual user.....
[03:24] <acojlo> My splash during boot is problematic: it start's good, but just before 'starting gdm' it shows just text boot process and goes to gdm
[03:24] <basd> do you think updating my BiOS on my Dell would help?
[03:24] <AAA> basd  you can <alt>F4
[03:24] <cdubya> AAA, he was wanting all users
[03:24] <basd> that's what I'm thinking next
[03:25] <blinker> AAA: I went back and tried to log in again. it lets me log in through VT - normal login flashes the VT when correct info is used, doesn't otherwise
[03:25] <Morydd> AAA: if-down.d if-up.d if-post-down.d if-pre-up.d interfaces
[03:25] <mdmjb> Even though I can't seem to talk to my router, I still can see the packet transmit/receive numbers going up with ifconfig
[03:26] <AAA> Morydd  that is odd, you can always echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[03:26] <selfharm> "you have mail" what do i do?
[03:26] <AAA> selfharm  that is prolly just local delivery, _I_ would just run mutt in a term and read them
[03:27] <EnsignRedshirt> Hello, world.
[03:27] <AAA> mdmjb  hrm.
[03:27] <acojlo> how to delete "sda1" and "sda3" icons from my desktop? I want them off, but I want usb and others to show on desktop when I mount them
[03:27] <neoth> gekko: i have both a regular mouse and the synaptic device in my xorg.conf but x refuses to start because it cant find either one

[03:28] <EnsignRedshirt> dma isn't enabled by default for my CD drive when I boot.  Where do I put the command to do this at boot?  (Or is there a GUI configuration app somewhere?)  I'm using breezy.
[03:28] <AAA> EnsignRedshirt  /etc/hdparm.conf
[03:28] <gekko`> neoth: So your mouse doesn't work?
[03:29] <cdubya> !dma
[03:29] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[03:29] <cdubya> EnsignRedshirt,  ^^^^^
[03:29] <neoth> gekko: no X refuses to start
[03:29] <nesl247> Anyone know why the livecd freezes up all the time. Or when I do an install if it doesn't freeze I can never finish it. The farthest I've gotten was checking files.
[03:30] <gekko`> neoth: can you show me the error log?
[03:30] <gekko`> !pastebin
[03:30] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[03:30] <Morydd> AAA: "sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" returns "permission denied"
[03:30] <neoth> gekko: two seconds... it gotta get it onto another machine
[03:30] <sproingie> Morydd: sudo is only working for the left side of the >
[03:31] <gekko`> neoth: X errors  are stored in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:31] <AAA> Morydd  sudo
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> nesl247: does the self test finish?  here are some command line changes you can try (F6at grub)  Grub Boot Options ide=nodma vga=normal nomce acpi=off pnpbios=off xdrvr=vesa xres=800x600 apm=off quiet
[03:31] <EnsignRedshirt> AAA, cdubya: Thanks.
[03:31] <AAA> EnsignRedshirt  hdparm is your friend
[03:31] <cdubya> np
[03:31] <thejusticecow> !vmware
[03:31] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository. Instructions to install VMWare Server can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingVMWare
[03:31] <Morydd> sproingie: any way to work around this?
[03:32] <ChrisC_> Does anyone here know how to get "bonus" data material (e.g. an mpeg file) off of an enhanced audio CD?  I did it once before, but I can't remember how.
[03:32] <EnsignRedshirt> AAA: Yup, I've been manually running hdparm each time I boot up, which is kind of silly.
[03:32] <nesl247> Jack_Sparrow: It gets all the way to the desktop (oh and to say the livecd is the slowest thing I've ever seen). It freezes usually after trying to get to the menu or start the installer
[03:32] <longwave> Morydd: sudo -i to get a root shell, then do the echo command, then ctrl-d to log out of root
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> nesl247: did the self test finish without errors?
[03:32] <Morydd> longwave: thank you.
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> nesl247: everything on the cd is compressed and eats processor speed
[03:32] <CVirus> whats the difference between kernel 386 and 686 ?
[03:33] <AAA> Morydd  sudo before the command I gave you should work, you will have to add that to your startup scripts or put it in your /etc/network/interfaces as a PREUP command
[03:33] <nesl247> Jack_Sparrow: You want to clue me in on what you are talking about. First Ubuntu use. I'm used to Gentoo (And no I'm not new to linux)
[03:33] <XXS> where shall i get unrar from if my packetmanager (synaptic - ubuntu 6.06) doesn't show it ?
[03:33] <mdmjb> CVirus: The instruction set that's used in the binary.
[03:33] <sproingie> Morydd: sudo sh -c "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward"
[03:33] <neoth> gekko: thanks brb with the logs
[03:33] <lumgwada> can any kind souls help me with a Evolution Calendar / webcal task sync issue? I'm not getting tasks ical paste >> (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19652).
[03:33] <nesl247> Jack_Sparrow: And if the livecd eats soo much processor resources a p4 3.2ghz isn't suitable, that's pathetic. I've seen other livecd's load faster.
[03:33] <longwave> AAA, Morydd: you can enable ip_forward on boot with /etc/sysctl.conf
[03:34] <tawy> is there a way to rebuild ubuntu back to the point of when it was originally installed without having to use a disk, or network boot up? id like to make this current install clean like it was fresh installed. is it possible?
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> nesl247: when you boot the live cd you have an otpion to test the cd for errors.. a self test.. watch it for any errors
[03:34] <AAA> longwave  good info
[03:34] <cdubya> XXS, you have universe and multiverse enabled?
[03:34] <CVirus> mdmjb: which of them is for x processors and which for them is for foo ones ?
[03:34] <nesl247> Jack_Sparrow: CD always gives mismatches. And yes I've done an md5sum on the iso
[03:34] <XXS> cdubya i think so, i enabled EVERY packetsource i could enable in the packetmanager
[03:34] <cdubya> !repos
[03:34] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[03:34] <sproingie> tawy: not trivially.  debootstrap can create a fresh system, you'd still have to blow away the old one
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> nesl247: then burn a new one SLOWER...
[03:34] <nesl247> I've never had it once get it to not give mismatches on the .deb files.
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> and retest it
[03:35] <Morydd> AAA sproingie longwave: thank you all. Problem seems to be sorted.
[03:35] <iamjwc> does anyone have any ids on how to dual boot ubuntu and windows xp, from separate harddrives?
[03:35] <nesl247> Jack_Sparrow: I think at about the lowest speed setting it should work properly..
[03:35] <tawy> yeah i dont mind blowing the current away, but this machine's cd drive and floppy  are shot.
[03:35] <iamjwc> ideas*
[03:35] <mdmjb> CVirus: Um... 686 works with Pentium...IIIs?  386 works with nearly all x86 processors that can run Linux.
[03:35] <longwave> 686 is for pentium pro and upwards
[03:36] <cdubya> !multiverse
[03:36] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[03:36] <mdmjb> longwave: Thanks >_<
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> nesl247: if the md5 of the iso is fine and the cd has errors the problem is obvious
[03:36] <sproingie> tawy: ouch.  debian can install from another partition, don't know how to expose that in ubuntu's installer tho
[03:36] <CVirus> longwave: what would I use for an Intel Core Duo ?
[03:36] <cdubya> XXS, you might check to make sure you do....I checked and it came up in the list I have
[03:36] <longwave> CVirus: 686
[03:36] <nesl247> Jack_Sparrow: But why would this cause the desktop to freeze up.. Obviously if it's able to load the desktop it should be fine..
[03:36] <sleekbiotch> I love Reidon!
[03:36] <sleekbiotch> Anally!
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> nesl247: no
[03:36] <ajt> I'm trying to get my wireless networking card working WPA and I get the following error ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA] : Operation not supported  I'm running the command  sudo wpa_supplicant -iath0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dmadwifi -w  which I got from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[03:37] <sproingie> tawy: at any rate, you'd still have to boot off some media to run the installer that reset your old install ...
[03:37] <ajt> Anyoene know how to fix it/
[03:37] <sproingie> tawy: give debootstrap a try then
[03:37] <iamjwc> does anyone have any ideas on how to dual boot ubuntu and windows xp, from separate harddrives?
[03:37] <AAA> ajt  what is the -w supposed to be? I don't use WPA
[03:37] <ajt> AAA: good question let me look
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> iamjwc: grub just needs to point to the second drive..
[03:38] <tawy> ok thanks.
[03:38] <ajt> AAA:   -w = wait for interface to be added, if needed
[03:38] <iamjwc> Jack_sparrow: whats grub? im a total n00b
[03:38] <ajt> AAA: FYI I'm configuring it via commandline
[03:38] <AAA> ajt  ah, I don't know, can you get a link? is your device up? ifconfig <dev> up
[03:38] <cdubya> XXS, Open Synaptic, then Settings > Repositories, then click on the Dapper 6.06 LTS (Binary) and click edit to make sure you've got all of them checked.....
[03:38] <AAA> ajt the only way...
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> iamjwc: I did it once.. and I dont think I had to do anything
[03:38] <longwave> ajt does your card work without WPA?
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> grub is the bootloader
[03:39] <nesl247> ajt: Grub is the GRand Unified Boot Loader.
[03:39] <XXS> yes cdubya i'm currently reloading.. i think that was the point. *feeling too dumb*
[03:39] <AAA> ajt  my first guess is your device is not up
[03:39] <ajt> longwave: maybe that's a good idea
[03:39] <scrappy_> iamjwc: i think ubuntu would likely setup grub correctly for you by default after install if not its very easy
[03:39] <dennis_> hello
[03:39] <neoth> gekko: please check http://www.joshanddanielswebsite.com/daphreak/x.log
[03:39] <longwave> ajt: yeah, will be easier to debug WPA if you can get it working without beforehand
[03:39] <AAA> hi dennis_
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> iamjwc:  I agree with scrappy_
[03:40] <AAA> ajt  yeah, you _must_ have a linksys or a default in your 'hood ;>
[03:40] <ajt> AAA: I ran ifconfig ath0 up and reran that command it still didn't owrk peroply
[03:40] <cdubya> XXS, heh, hey, no problem.....
[03:40] <dennis_> i am new to this and trying to get my wine updated and i dont get it
[03:40] <tivoklr> question for ya AAA when you're free
[03:40] <ajt> AAA: I stayed away form the linksys because I've heard bad things about it
[03:40] <iamjwc> scrappy: so i need to install ubuntu first, and then linux?
[03:40] <cdubya> XXS, no reason to
[03:40] <tivoklr> mercedes is happier
[03:40] <AAA> ajt  what about iwconfig? did you set the essid and stuff?
[03:40] <tivoklr> switched some vacuum lines around...
[03:40] <ajt> AAA: yeah
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> iamjwc: Ubuntu is linux
[03:40] <longwave> ajt: "Operation not supported" suggests a driver or interface is not properly loaded for wpa_supplicant to talk to
[03:40] <AAA> ajt  linksys is just a default essid you see EVERYWHERE
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> iamjwc: one and the same
[03:40] <cius> anyone happen to know what the int or hex value of an EOF is?
[03:40] <XXS> cdubya well thank you very much :D and i mean ... i've seen much more unfriendly helpchannels... i'm not used to such friendly helpers ;D
[03:41] <iamjwc> crap....i meant to say windows
[03:41] <iamjwc> not linux
[03:41] <ajt> longwave: let me try loadingt the proper kernel module
[03:41] <scrappy_> iamjwc: as long as xp is installed first and ubuntu last you should be ok
[03:41] <dennis_> can anyone help
[03:41] <tivoklr> ha
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> iamjwc: Windows first
[03:41] <sproingie> the hell.  firefox seems incapable of downloading anything from sourceforge now
[03:41] <tivoklr> i can't...
[03:41] <tawy> what is the file you edit for sudo apt-get update.. to change repositires and such? ? .
[03:41] <ajt> longwave: that didn't seem to help
[03:41] <AAA> ajt  I suggest tail -f /var/log/syslog as you do that
[03:41] <micahcowan> cius, you should not need to know, it's not entirely portable. But, on most systems, it's -1 as an int
[03:41] <dibblego> if I wish to use XMMS and Skype at the same time, do I need a "sound mixer"? if so, what is the name of the package that is generally used?
[03:41] <longwave> ajt: is there anything about the wifi card in dmesg output?
[03:41] <AAA> tawy  /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:41] <tivoklr> networking question for ya
[03:41] <iamjwc> alright
[03:41] <iamjwc> well
[03:41] <iamjwc> here goes
[03:41] <micahcowan> cius, why do you wish to know? You can't "write" it into a file, if that's what you're attempting.
[03:41] <tivoklr> i have multiple public ip addresses
[03:41] <ajt> AAA: nothing
[03:41] <gekko`> neoth: also upload the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:41] <iamjwc> its formattin time
[03:42] <ajt> longwave: let me look
[03:42] <neoth> gekko: one moment
[03:42] <AAA> ajt are you using the madwifi drivers?
[03:42] <tivoklr> and I would like to have 2 of them point to my ubuntu box that is acting as a firewall
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> !grub > iamjwc
[03:42] <iamjwc> i dont know what !grub means
[03:42] <XXS> cdubya everything works fine now... thanks a lot again, you saved my evening =)
[03:42] <tivoklr> i need to nat requests that head to one ip to various boxes on the network
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> iamjwc: that is why I had the bot explain and give a link
[03:42] <ajt> longwave: http://paste.seagullproject.org/51
[03:42] <ajt> AAA: yes
[03:43] <cdubya> XXS, understood. Glad you're having a good experience. :)
[03:43] <tivoklr> and the other ip will only have ports 80 and 443 go to one box on the network
[03:43] <sproingie> dibblego: esd is the sound mixer, and it should work out of the box.  insofar as anything alsa-related actually can work out of the box
[03:43] <ajt> AAA: at least that's the driver I used on this machine
[03:43] <cius> micahcowan, no, I'm working on a program for a class, simulating a FAT fs in memory, prof wants us to tag an EOF on the end of files in our simulated fs.  I thought there was an ASCII val for it...
[03:43] <ChrisC_> Does anyone here know how to get "bonus" data material (e.g. an mpeg file) off of an enhanced audio CD?  I did it once before, but I can't remember how.
[03:43] <iamjwc> grub or gnu grub?
[03:43] <longwave> tivoklr: you should be able to set up one IP on eth0, the other on an eth0:0 alias, then do all your NAT with iptables
[03:43] <tivoklr> okey dokey
[03:43] <dibblego> sproingie, well xmms refuses to use the sound card if skype is running
[03:43] <AAA> ajt and you have the wpa_supplicant stuff installed?
[03:43] <selfharm> when i try to start GDM, i get  "only root wants to run gdm (proces 5137) Glib-critical **: g_Hash_table_lookup: assertion "hash_table != null" failed
[03:43] <ajt> AAA, longwave: maybe I should start from the beginning w/o WPA and see if I can get her running
[03:43] <cdubya> XXS, kewl. Glad it worked.
[03:43] <ajt> AAA: yeah I installed it via apt-get
[03:43] <neoth> gekko: http://www.joshanddanielswebsite.com/daphreak/xorg.conf
[03:43] <AAA> ajt it almost sounds like you have the wrong drivers loaded
[03:43] <tivoklr> should i then have 2 nics, one for the external network connection and one for the internal?
[03:43] <ajt> AAA: I'll start from the beginning
[03:44] <sproingie> dibblego: skype may not be using the mixer then.  not sure.
[03:44] <ajt> tivoklr: why not :) That's what I'm setting up now
[03:44] <AAA> ajt  yeah, I don't use WPA, but I use wifi a lot
[03:44] <longwave> ajt: i don't know much about the atheros drivers, but yeah probably best to disable WPA for now
[03:44] <tawy> ah ok. thanks aaa. i ask because im getting many messages like no such file or directory, some index files failed to download or old ones used instead.
[03:44] <ajt> AAA, longwave: thanks...I'm going to start from the beginning w/o wpa and then go from there
[03:44] <scrappy_> iamjwc: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo will explain alot of it
[03:44] <dibblego> sproingie, when you say "using the mixer", is the mixer some kind of in-between software from the application to the sound card?
[03:44] <tivoklr> ok, i'll scrounge up another nic and go from there. thanks.
[03:44] <micahcowan> cius: no ASCII val... on DOS ctrl-Z has been used for this, but it's not a true EOF (there's no such character: that's the /point/ of EOF). This is way offtopic for this channel, though, so it's probably not fruitful to continue discussing it here.
[03:44] <gekko`> neoth: are you using a touchpad AND a mouse?
[03:44] <sproingie> sound in linux is a mess.  realtek ac97, the single most common sound device on PC's, can't convince alsa to output to headphones and spdif coax at the same time
[03:45] <AAA> ajt  good idea, you should be able to ifconfig ath0 up && iwconfig ath0 essid foo and then use wavemon to see your connection
[03:45] <thejusticecow> when i open gaim it signs me on the closes straight away, anyone know why?
[03:45] <neoth> gekko: no just a touchpad
[03:45] <ajt> AAA: thanks fotr the tip
[03:45] <XXS> byebye
[03:45] <cius> micahcowan, yea, I realize that, I just thought somebody might know.  You've helped though.  :-)  thanks
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> realtek is the soundcard equivalent of a Winmodem..
[03:45] <sproingie> dibblego: yep.  ubuntu uses esd, enlightened sound daemon.  everything needs to go through esd if it wants to use the mixer properly
[03:45] <Schumi> does ubuntu use xfree86 or x.org? x.org right?
[03:45] <dibblego> thejusticecow, it is probably seg faulting - open it from the command line
[03:45] <longwave> sproingie: i remember similar limitations in some windows audio drivers that have spdif out
[03:45] <AAA> ajt and when you get the hang of it you should really check out aircrack-ng ;>
[03:46] <ajt> AAA: what's aircrack-ng?
[03:46] <AAA> Schumi  Xorg
[03:46] <thejusticecow> dibblego: that is where i opened it from
[03:46] <dibblego> sproingie, does that mean `ps -ef | grep esd` should give me something? it doesn't
[03:46] <sproingie> longwave: certainly isn't the case for realtek on windows.  being that it's THE most common sound chip...  bah
[03:46] <ajt> AAA: I'll google it
[03:46] <AAA> ajt wireless security tool ;)
[03:46] <Frankenstein_AFK> hi, what compiler would i need when getting this error: configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.
[03:46] <AAA> Frankenstein_AFK  you need gcc
[03:46] <sproingie> dibblego: try ps aux. used to solaris, are we?
[03:46] <Frankenstein_AFK> AAA, i already used apt to install that
[03:47] <longwave> Frankenstein_AFK: install "build-essential", that will give you gcc and the extra tools you need
[03:47] <Frankenstein_AFK> thanks longwave !
[03:47] <AAA> !build-essential
[03:47] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:47] <dibblego> sproingie, I am actually; still not daemon matching grep esd
[03:48] <Schumi> !ati
[03:48] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:48] <dibblego> sproingie, I plugged a USB headset in yesterday and now if I try to start the daemon it seems to be looking for it
[03:48] <AAA> dibblego  so stop the daemon?
[03:48] <dibblego> sproingie, http://rafb.net/paste/results/fPgCSJ35.html
[03:49] <Zambezi> Can anybody help me removing a packages I installed with dpkg? I said the packages was removed properly, but there's still files left.
[03:49] <mistform> khisanth?
[03:49] <gekko`> neoth: I commented the not needed part in your xorg.conf
[03:49] <dibblego> AAA, it won't start is the point
[03:49] <Schumi> on a non linux note I just tried playing a new purchased DVD in windows media player and it wont let me because of DRM.
[03:49] <AAA> Zambezi  --purge didn't remove it?
[03:49] <gekko`> neoth: here it is: # /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
[03:49] <Schumi> I am overly peeved
[03:49] <gekko`> #
[03:49] <gekko`> # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
[03:49] <gekko`> # values from the debconf database.

[03:49] <gekko`> # This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
[03:49] <sproingie> dibblego: i'm pretty stumped actually
[03:49] <AAA> dibblego  because the device is not plugged in?
[03:49] <gekko`> # if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
[03:49] <gekko`> # package.
[03:49] <gekko`> #
[03:49] <AAA> gekko`  stop!
[03:49] <gekko`> # If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
[03:49] <sproingie> gekko`: golly thanks for not using pastebin
[03:49] <dibblego> AAA, the headset is not plugged in, correct
[03:49] <gekko`> # again, run the following commands:
[03:49] <gekko`> #
[03:49] <Plouj> what's the gnome alternative for k3b?

[03:50] <gekko`> #   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:50] <farous> !pastebin > gekko`
[03:50] <AAA> dibblego  if you plug it in does the daemon start?
[03:50] <gekko`> Section "Files"
[03:50] <ChrisC_> after this is done someone explain pastebin to him
[03:50] <gekko`> 	FontPath	"unix/:7100"			# local font server
[03:50] <dibblego> AAA, it's at home :)
[03:50] <gekko`> 	# if the local font server has problems, we can fall back on these
[03:50] <sproingie> after he's kicked
[03:50] <gekko`> 	FontPath	"/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
[03:50] <sproingie> buh bye
[03:50] <neoth> lol there goes my config file
[03:50] <neoth> lol
[03:50] <dibblego> AAA, the headset is 20km away at the moment unfortunately
[03:50] <AAA> dibblego  ah, you can stop it from loading at boot with update-rc.d -f <name> remove
[03:50] <|thun-afk> this is the bussiest chan ive ever been in.
[03:50] <AAA> dibblego  so just stop the service
[03:50] <Zambezi> AAA No. Still get it when I press tab, so I can't install the new packages. And I need it.
[03:50] <dibblego> AAA, do you mean stop esd from starting? I don't necessarily want that
[03:51] <ChrisC_> gekko: learn about pastebin
[03:51] <ChrisC_> gekko: learn about pastebin
[03:51] <ChrisC_> gekko: learn about pastebin
[03:51] <AAA> |thun-afk  /join #debian =D
[03:51] <dibblego> AAA, really I want it to know that there is no headset now and to stop looking for it
[03:51] <gekko`> dude, i know but I accidently pasted this here
[03:51] <aStRaLgOd> Is it me, or the depository is very slow?
[03:51] <Zambezi> gekko`, pastebin.ca
[03:51] <gekko`> ...
[03:51] <sproingie> aStRaLgOd: us repos?  probably, they're extremely wonky.  i use the uk repos now
[03:52] <lumgwada> does anyone here sync ubuntu's evolution calendar with trac?
[03:52] <AAA> dibblego  oh, you sound daemon wont start with out the device, I see. is there something in /etc/esd/ you can change to remove the init of the device?
[03:52] <dibblego> AAA, I have a feeling it is because in the Sound Preferences dialog I set the headset to "default source card" yesterday, and the dialog didn't always seem to update properly, so even though I set it again, it's not updating
[03:52] <ChrisC_> sorry I have to repost this, but I'm really striking out via Google and ubuntuforums search ...
[03:52] <ChrisC_> Does anyone here know how to get "bonus" data material (e.g. an mpeg file) off of an enhanced audio CD?  I did it once before, but I can't remember how.
[03:52] <gekko`> neoth: here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19653
[03:52] <aStRaLgOd> sproingie: Okay, what are they? Cuz packages.ubuntu.com is very slow atm
[03:52] <dibblego> AAA, I do not have /etc/esd
[03:52] <|thun-afk> this chan has 200 somn' more people
[03:52] <gekko`> neoth: use that xorg.conf
[03:53] <AAA> dibblego  yeah (I don't use esd) you should find something in /etc/ you can change that behaviour
[03:53] <dibblego> AAA, I found /etc/esound/
[03:53] <Plouj> humm, I'm not finding "gnomebaker" or "GnomeBaker" in apt cache, any suggestions?
[03:53] <AAA> dibblego  bingo
[03:53] <neoth> gekko: thanks i will try it real quick and see how it goes
[03:53] <damnation> hi all, i have a problem, i done a fresh install of dapper and cannot get my wifi to work. it's a WPC54G V3 (im using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported as a reference)
[03:53] <|thun-afk> plouj, un comment the universal repos
[03:53] <damnation> and i still can't get my wifi working.
[03:53] <theboywhogotlost> Hey, I'm attempting to install madwifi the build goes seemingly perfect but when I issue teh command modprobe ath_pci the card doesn't show up when I do a ifconfig
[03:53] <sproingie> aStRaLgOd: just switch "us" to "uk" in sources.list.  i don't use packages.ubuntu.com myself
[03:53] <cyanics> damnation, is the wpc54g a supported card?
[03:53] <dibblego> AAA, there is only one file (esd.conf) and here it is: http://rafb.net/paste/results/cGk6IT48.html doesn't look like I can change anything
[03:53] <AAA> theboywhogotlost  lsmod|grep ath
[03:53] <theboywhogotlost> why?
[03:54] <gekko`> neoth: but dont copy the line numbers
[03:54] <|thun-afk> damnation, i have a linksys wmp54G v4 with Rt2500 chhipset. I just have to config it and make it actve with system.admin/networking
[03:54] <damnation> cyanics: apparantly yes, with the standard, new kernel
[03:54] <aStRaLgOd> sproingie okay thanks
[03:54] <damnation> |thun-afk, i'm a bit new to linux, you'll have to forgive me =[
[03:54] <damnation> (built in driver works flawlessly with the 2.6.15 kernel, ndiswrapper not needed. Do not know if it will work for install.)

[03:54] <damnation> im using V3
[03:55] <damnation> lol Plouj :)
[03:55] <AAA> theboywhogotlost  ifconfig ath0 up
[03:55] <userundefine> !pastebin > theboywhogotlost
[03:55] <sproingie> sound and wifi, not my favorite topics in linux-land
[03:55] <cyanics> damnation, the supported hardware site says that it is supported with the windows drivers.
[03:55] <greenwom> scrapper!!! where are you
[03:55] <AAA> theboywhogotlost  then iwconfig ath0 essid whateveryourssidis
[03:55] <Frankenstein_AFK> what are kernal headers? im trying to use this file to install my winmodem... : ERROR: No kernel headers found.
[03:55] <|thun-afk> just goto system,admin,networking and see if your card is there
[03:55] <damnation> yes cyanics
[03:55] <J2D2> where is a website i can get some extra reposotories like seveas and suchnot
[03:55] <AAA> Frankenstein_AFK  apt-cache search kernel-headers
[03:55] <damnation> but it says this next to the card
[03:55] <damnation> "(built in driver works flawlessly with the 2.6.15 kernel, ndiswrapper not needed. Do not know if it will work for install.)"
[03:55] <sproingie> Frankenstein_AFK: apt-get install linux-headers
[03:55] <Frankenstein_AFK> my card is there, but it cant find it
[03:55] <dibblego> Fracture, type uname -a and call your kernel version X then type apt-get install linux-headers-X
[03:55] <theboywhogotlost> AAA no such device
[03:56] <AAA> theboywhogotlost  ifconfig -a
[03:56] <sproingie> dibblego: apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) works
[03:56] <damnation> do i _have_ to use WEP (or whatever) ubuntu has standard
[03:56] <damnation> ?
[03:56] <AAA> theboywhogotlost  do you have an atheros chipset?
[03:56] <sproingie> just plain linux-headers should track your version tho
[03:56] <dibblego> sproingie, good one :)
[03:56] <damnation> says my session ID is invalid
[03:56] <damnation> when i try to config the wifi settings
[03:56] <userundefine> damnation, you don't have to use encryption if you don't want to.
[03:57] <AAA> what did encryption ever do for DRM =p
[03:57] <|thun-afk> im off, good luck damnation
[03:57] <damnation> thanks |thun-afk :)
[03:57] <damnation> i just have this problem, i'm used to using WPA, and i'm not at all familiar with WEP or ubuntu
[03:57] <Frankenstein_AFK> it gave me a list and i cant find anything matching  2.6.15-26-386
[03:57] <AAA> |thun-afk  do you put pipes at the beginning of your passwords too ;>
[03:57] <damnation> and i'm not 100% my card will even work with ubuntu
[03:58] <damnation> cause i use iwconfig and it says i have a broadcome/ airforce1 chipset
[03:58] <damnation> yet it's a linksys wpc54g v3
[03:58] <Plouj> damnation: wap/wep isn't different to the end user except for security reasons
[03:58] <damnation> ok..
[03:58] <neoth> gekko: "undefined InputDevice "configured mouse" referenced by serverlayout "default layout""
[03:58] <dibblego> I wonder where esd is looking besides /etc/esound/esd.conf
[03:58] <AAA> damnation  sounds like you device is driven, do you have the wpa_supplicant stuff?
[03:58] <Taxman> the Ubuntu article will be on the Wikipedia main page starting 00:00 UTC on Saturday in case people wanted to know :)
[03:59] <damnation> AAA: driven?
[03:59] <AAA> damnation  you have a working driver for it
[03:59] <damnation> ok, so does it come with the standard install of ubuntu desktop/ dapper
[03:59] <damnation> ?
[03:59] <Plouj> damnation: try the ubuntu live cd
[03:59] <gekko`> neoth: ok, comment in the line 126
[04:00] <greenwom> I lost my wireless card //// I didn't do a kernel upgrade.  It looks like it still is working (sending packets) driver adm8211 is present (lshw)  My laptop can see the singnal in the same spot but the card stoped working (sencond time it happened, last time I reinstalled_)  what next
[04:00] <neoth> gekko: righto one sec
[04:00] <damnation> i used it, it didnt work, then i installed ubuntu and it still didn't work
[04:00] <MyApple876> #kernel2,4,0
[04:00] <AAA> damnation  your device seems to be working, does iwspy <dev> show you available access points?
[04:00] <thejusticecow> dibblego: you dont have any other ideas?
[04:00] <damnation> oic, i was about to ask if there was a scanning command
[04:00] <damnation> i gotta write that down.
[04:00] <dibblego> thejusticecow, /var/log ? not really; you could try #gaim
[04:01] <thejusticecow> dibblego: thanks
[04:01] <MyApple876> guys check out #kernel2,4,0
[04:01] <damnation> what's the <dev> mean, AAA ?
[04:01] <greenwom> any help??
[04:01] <AAA> er iwlist ath0 accesspoints
[04:01] <damnation> oic
[04:01] <longwave> someone kick MyApple876, that is a trick link to make users leave channels
[04:01] <AAA> damnation  device ath0 wlan0 eth0 etc...
[04:01] <damnation> so i could substitute ath0 with eth1 ?
[04:01] <theboywhogotlost> AAA http://paste.lisp.org/display/23626
[04:01] <Plouj> greenwom: so, what did you do to loose your wireless card?
[04:02] <damnation> ok, i'm slowly getting the hang of this =[
[04:02] <AAA> damnation  eth0 probably doesn't have wireless info
[04:02] <greenwom> Plouj: the only thing I think of is install samba
[04:02] <neoth> gekko: no go log @ http://www.joshanddanielswebsite.com/daphreak/Xorg.0.log
[04:02] <greenwom> Plouj: that's the last thing I can think of
[04:02] <damnation> now, AAA, can you tell me if i NEED to use WEP to login via linux?
[04:02] <damnation> login to the router i mean
[04:02] <Plouj> greenwom: and it used to work perfectly, before?
[04:02] <damnation> or can i use unsecured?
[04:03] <greenwom> Plouj: yes
[04:03] <Phrozen_One> howdy all, anybody have experience with installing Ubuntu for a family member on a shared computer?
[04:03] <AAA> theboywhogotlost  eth1 is your wifi card?
[04:03] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> How do you make a file "Hidden"?
[04:03] <MyApple876> come on guys, check out #kernel2,4,0
[04:03] <Plouj> Phrozen_One: do you have a more specific question?
[04:03] <root> does ubuntu have different repositories like debian has sarge, sid etc?
[04:03] <userundefine> damnation, it's up to your router what you NEED to authenticate.  Linux doesn't determine what your router accepts
[04:03] <dibblego> in the System->Preferences->Sound Preferences dialog, there is an option for "Default sound card" - where exactly is that dialog writing its information?
[04:03] <longwave> MyApple876: please stop
[04:03] <damnation> userundefine: i know, but i couldnt seem to connect at all
[04:03] <AAA> damnation  WEP == wireless equivilency protocol it has NOTHING to do with linux (per say)
[04:03] <damnation> i know AAA
[04:03] <theboywhogotlost> eth1 works fine but I got a new card and I can
[04:04] <theboywhogotlost> get it to work
[04:04] <Phrozen_One> Plouj, does anybody have any feedback on what the casual user complains about when trying to use Ubuntu as a Windows replacement
[04:04] <greenwom> PLouj:  I was using it and installed samba then gone.  I had this happen before and I reinstalled
[04:04] <theboywhogotlost> can't***
[04:04] <sproingie> root: those aren't different repos, they're different versions.  ubuntu has a new one roughly every 6 months
[04:04] <damnation> but if i have no WEP on my router, can i just login on ubuntu by typing in session ID?
[04:04] <mistform> speaking of wireless, I can't get Network Manager to work
[04:04] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> How do you make a file "Hidden"?
[04:04] <userundefine> damnation, yes
[04:04] <mistform> i've uninstalled it an reinstalled it 3 times
[04:04] <AAA> Phrozen_One  that is a can o worms
[04:04] <damnation> thanks userundefine :)
[04:04] <damnation> ok, i think i've got all i need, for now.
[04:04] <damnation> i'm gonna go have a stab at it
[04:04] <Phrozen_One> XxXBrAnDoNXxX, put a "." in front of it
[04:04] <longwave> XxXBrAnDoNXxX: put a . at the beginning of the filename
[04:04] <Plouj> greenwom: I'm curious, the previous time you lost your wireless card, did it happen after installing samba as well, or something else?
[04:04] <damnation> i'll be back if i have any more problems
[04:05] <AAA> damnation  stab hard, stab often ;)
[04:05] <damnation> thanks for your help userundefine and AAA :)
[04:05] <Plouj> Phrozen_One: they complain it sucks compared to windows
[04:05] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> thanx
[04:05] <Phrozen_One> okay better yet, has anybody succesfully migrated a casual Windows user to Ubuntu
[04:05] <AAA> Plouj  but they are just lUSERS
[04:05] <Plouj> Phrozen_One: for example exotic software unsupported
[04:05] <gekko`> neoth: your touchpad isn't detected
[04:05] <Plouj> Phrozen_One: requires lots of ram
[04:05] <Plouj> Phrozen_One: dodgy music/video players
[04:05] <Phrozen_One> well what about with the support of the latest Wine?
[04:05] <dibblego> Phrozen_One, yes, my 5 year old much prefers Edubuntu
[04:05] <greenwom> Plouj: can't say I was putting the card in to replace a crappy prism card and had the same problem driver pleasent but no go (same card worked out of the box on other systems)
[04:05] <neoth> gekko: is there a way to remedy that?
[04:05] <longwave> Phrozen_One: yep, my girlfriend was a casual windows user, now she happily uses ubuntu with openoffice and so on instead
[04:05] <thejusticecow> how do i tell what dapper verison i have?
[04:05] <userundefine> Phrozen_One, I'll be putting my mother on linux soon.  Casual users are the easiest kind
[04:05] <Plouj> Phrozen_One: I installed Ubuntu on my bro's laptop
[04:06] <Phrozen_One> I have two potentials atm..... a business laptop user, and a family computer
[04:06] <AAA> Phrozen_One  if you really want windows emulation check out (non-free) crossover-office
[04:06] <Plouj> greenwom: well, I dunno how to help you, but you could search dmesg for errors
[04:06] <gekko`> neoth: what does 'ls /dev/ | grep psaux
[04:06] <AAA> thejusticecow  cat /etc/issue
[04:06] <gekko`> say
[04:06] <thejusticecow> AAA: thank you
[04:06] <greenwom> dmesg only reveals eth1 scanning
[04:06] <AAA> gekko`  what the hell is that command suppose to do?
[04:06] <AAA> haha
[04:06] <Phrozen_One> is Ubuntu still considered the easiest distro for the dumber Windows users
[04:06] <Plouj> Phrozen_One: if you don't want to take the heat, you better make sure you find out what exactly those users want to do with computers, and test it out ourself on Ubuntu
[04:06] <AAA> thejusticecow  np
[04:07] <theboywhogotlost> Can someone help me? my ath0 card is not being detected.
[04:07] <userundefine> Phrozen_One, yes
[04:07] <neoth> gekko not a thing
[04:07] <root> sproingie: and it uses apt tho right?  So as apps and security updates are added I can stay current?
[04:07] <Phrozen_One> anybody have complaints about OpenSuse?
[04:07] <AAA> neoth  because that command makes no sense
[04:07] <greenwom> I lost my wireless card //// I didn't do a kernel upgrade.  It looks like it still is working (sending packets) driver adm8211 is present (lshw)  My laptop can see the singnal in the same spot but the card stoped working (sencond time it happened, last time I reinstalled_)  what next
[04:07] <Plouj> Phrozen_One: ask in #opensuse!
[04:07] <AAA> Phrozen_One  other than it is corporate?
[04:07] <Plouj> greenwom: no need to repeat yourself
[04:07] <Phrozen_One> oi, I need sleep
[04:08] <AAA> suse == novell
[04:08] <greenwom> Plouj: I'm stuck and desperate man :)
[04:08] <gekko`> AAA: psaux supposed to be the touchpad device isn't it?
[04:08] <Plouj> greenwom: what kind of troubleshooting have you done so far?
[04:08] <AAA> gekko`  I read ps aux sorry
[04:09] <gekko`> AAA: no problem
[04:09] <gekko`> i know what ps aux is ;)
[04:09] <greenwom> I've lshw to see if the driver is there, ran dhclinet, reinstalled the adm8211 module.  Powered the computer down unpluged and restared (many times)  Ran a live CD with same problem
[04:09] <AAA> gekko`  hehe
[04:09] <theboywhogotlost> Can someone help me get my new Wireless card working?
[04:10] <AAA> gekko`  I would have suggested ls /dev/ps<tab><tab>
[04:10] <theboywhogotlost> I can't get it to show up
[04:10] <Plouj> greenwom: if the live CD gives you the same problem, try powering down your card+ computer for a minute to let it completely loose it's internal memory state, then try again
[04:10] <greenwom> did that over night
[04:10] <Plouj> greenwom: did the live cd work work good at first, before you installed samba?
[04:10] <Plouj> greenwom: then your card must be broken
[04:11] <Plouj> greenwom: if it's a laptop, try completely taking the card out
[04:11] <AAA> oh yeah, the hardware guys blame the software guys and the software guys blame the hardware guys...
[04:11] <greenwom> had the same fault and a reinstall worked, I'm trying to avoid that again (time)
[04:11] <AAA> greenwom  is it a pcmcia card? or minipci builtin?
[04:11] <Plouj> greenwom: answer my last question about the live cd
[04:12] <greenwom> PCI  card, running live doesn't have samba
[04:12] <AAA> if it is pcmcia cardctl is your friend
[04:12] <neoth> gekko: is there a way to get the mouse detected?
[04:12] <Plouj> greenwom: yeah, did the wireless card ever work with the live cd?
[04:12] <AAA> gdb
[04:13] <greenwom> Plouj: never had to use it before so it's not a great check
[04:13] <Plouj> :/
[04:13] <Plouj> it would have been a great check
[04:13] <dave_dan> I was hoping that someone could help me with my desktop background.  Whenever I restart it does not show up however when I go to system -> preferences ->desktop background it shows up.  Im also losing adesklets.  It starts when the system starts because I see it come up.  But then when I put in my password for firestarter it disappers and I have to run adesklets for the terminal again to get it started again.
[04:13] <gekko`> neoth: 'sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics' if it isn't already installed
[04:14] <Max007> Hi
[04:14] <neoth> gekko: couldnt find the package
[04:14] <Max007> How can i auto mount a fat32 partition with write permission for everyone ?
[04:14] <Plouj> greenwom: I'm out of ideas
[04:15] <greenwom> Plouj: thanks for trying.... I need to get it up.  I'm taking the laptop on a long trip and my wife needs the desktop up and running
[04:15] <Plouj> Max007: check mount map page for uid and guid
[04:15] <longwave> no, for write permission for everyone you want the umask option
[04:15] <longwave> well or you could put them all in a group i guess
[04:15] <gekko`> neoth: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/x11/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
[04:16] <AAA> Max007  edit your /etc/fstab to include the drive
[04:16] <Max007> AAA: yeah i know, but i dont know what to add to get write access
[04:16] <AAA> rw
[04:16] <thejusticecow> !gaim
[04:16] <ubotu> Instant Messenger Clients: Gaim (GNOME, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GaimHowto), Kopete (KDE), both supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC.
[04:17] <Khisanth> mistform: what?
[04:17] <AAA> Max007  the mount point also needs rw for the users
[04:17] <ajt> I isntalled Ubuntu without the X Server how would you go about installing it? Just select to isntall gnome + x server?
[04:17] <Plouj> Max007: yeah, or check mount map page how to set the umask
[04:17] <neoth> gekko: is there a way i can add that server to the sources list? im not sure how to do the process manually
[04:17] <AAA> Max007  how are you sharing it? locally, samba, nfs ?
[04:17] <Plouj> Max007: google for fstab howto
[04:17] <Max007> AAA: local
[04:18] <AAA> Max007  just make sure the /mnt/foo is rx by everyone
[04:18] <rwanderley> hi...  can anyone tell me the package that contains the development man pages?
[04:18] <AAA> Max007  and the subdirs are rw for what you need
[04:18] <longwave> AAA: that will only affect the root of the mount point though, won't it?
[04:18] <rwanderley> ive installed build-essentials, but cant find any man pages for the C funtions
[04:19] <longwave> AAA: isn't the umask option needed to change permissions on the subdirectories?
[04:19] <gekko`> !source-o-matic
[04:19] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:19] <hyphenated> rwanderley: they are in the manpages-dev package
[04:19] <gekko`> neoth: check that link
[04:19] <AAA> longwave  yes, but you don't want user rw to the root, just there dir's, so rx is all you need on the root
[04:19] <gekko`> you can generate your own sources.list there
[04:19] <rwanderley> hyphenated: thx
[04:19] <AAA> longwave  umask for file they create in the subdir
[04:19] <neoth> gekko: k i will, be back in a bit
[04:20] <Hairy> anyone got an idea how long a dosfsck would take on a 120gb partition?
[04:20] <longwave> but he wanted a fat32 partition with rw access for everyone, fat32 doesn't support users and unix permissions directly?
[04:20] <AAA> longwave  think about / you can't write to /foo but you can to /home/foo/foo
[04:21] <AAA> Hairy  depends on the drive and the cpu, I'd guess 30m
[04:21] <aStRaLgOd> Holy crap I just found my perfect Linux game!
[04:21] <aStRaLgOd> Everyone! Go install the PlanetPenguin racing game
[04:21] <AAA> aStRaLgOd  don't say rpg
[04:22] <aStRaLgOd> no dude Planet Penguin, from the Repo
[04:22] <aStRaLgOd> That game pwns! :D It's the old TuxRacer
[04:22] <AAA> the only game I play is "get me another beer from the fridge" heh
[04:22] <klees> is there a way to use  tar  to only add new/newer files to an archive???
[04:22] <rwanderley> AAA: love that game too!
[04:23] <AAA> klees  you need the a option I believe
[04:23] <aStRaLgOd> AAA: Yeah but see that program depends on the DamagedLiver_0.2_i386.deb package....
[04:23] <AAA> a == append
[04:23] <AAA> aStRaLgOd  I use the CVS ver of that
[04:23] <aStRaLgOd> ic
[04:23] <AAA> crush vital systems
[04:23] <aStRaLgOd> I'm sure you built it from the source HA
[04:23] <AAA> mosdef
[04:24] <AAA> d0h, there was a root user on IRC bad bad bad
[04:24] <aStRaLgOd> lol
[04:24] <rwanderley> klees: maybe you should check rsync first
[04:24] <AAA> mmm rsysnc is such a slick utility
[04:24] <mdmjb> Figure I'll try asking again.  Anyone have an idea about a Linksys WMP54G PCI card?  It can use the radio, finds the network, talks to the router, but doesn't do DHCP or any "real" traffic.
[04:24] <klees> rsync???  im just doing a backup of my system
[04:24] <klees> using tar
[04:24] <klees> i already have a backup.tgz file
[04:25] <klees> and wanted to only add new files
[04:25] <mdmjb> Maybe find?
[04:25] <rwanderley> klees: forget what i said...  its wrong.
[04:25] <klees> rwanderley: np =)
[04:26] <turing> klees, tar was made to do what you're trying to do.  read deeply into 'man tar' on the command line
[04:26] <cracko> anyone know how i can turn anti-aliasing of fonts off in all gtk apps?
[04:26] <klees> on it
[04:26] <rwanderley> I saw the -N option on the manpage...
[04:26] <AAA> klees  sounds like you may need mondo/mini
[04:26] <AAA> er mindi
[04:27] <mister_roboto> klees, doesn't "-u" arg do that?
[04:27] <klees> i have it but tar does what i need
[04:27] <klees> mister_roboto: it does seem -u is what i want
[04:27] <AAA> klees  then you need the a option to append files to your archive, check that man page
[04:27] <django_> domo arigato, mister_roboto
[04:27] <mister_roboto> django_, :)
[04:27] <mdmjb> mister_roboto: Doesn't seem like that works for 1/4" tapes though...
[04:27] <klees> =)
[04:28] <AAA> no one uses tapes anymore
[04:28] <mister_roboto> mdmjb, not sure what tar format is, the directory is not at the end and therefore doesn't work with serial media like a tape?
[04:28] <AAA> so much for tap archives ....
[04:28] <Plouj> AAA: what does everyone use then?
[04:28] <AAA> Plouj  dvd's
[04:28] <Plouj> AAA: my work uses tapes, they store more than a single dvd
[04:29] <mister_roboto> or removable hard drives :)
[04:29] <Plouj> each tape does
[04:29] <AAA> Plouj  so you work for DEC
[04:29] <Plouj> wtf is DEC?
[04:29] <ajt> DEC
[04:29] <aStRaLgOd> haha guys, it's not ubuntu related, but watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9yI3F9a_PA Final fantasy IRL :)
[04:29] <mdmjb> Even the IRS moved away from tapes. ;)
[04:29] <ajt> Digital Equipment Corporation
[04:29] <AAA> old computer company NM
[04:29] <AAA> hehe yeah
[04:31] <neoth> gekko: i have the .deb file bc i couldnt get the package to show up in apt-get even with new sources. how do i use the .deb file?
[04:31] <klees> tar: Cannot update compressed archives
[04:31] <klees> bummer =(
[04:32] <AAA> klees  maybe you need the j or z option j==bzip z=gzip
[04:32] <AAA> neoth  bc should be in the repos
[04:32] <damnation> guess who's back ;)
[04:32] <damnation> hehe..
[04:32] <klees> AAA: what's tgz??
[04:32] <AAA> klees  gzip
[04:32] <mdmjb> tar + gzip
[04:32] <neoth> AAA then i dont know whats going on
[04:32] <AAA> klees  file file.tgz will tell you for sure
[04:33] <gekko`> neoth: go to the path you downloaded it and type 'dpkg -i <package.deb>'
[04:33] <damnation> i have a problem, AAA: i use iwspy and it says that my eth1 (and every other device) cannot collect wireless statistics
[04:33] <klees> AAA: im running this command which produced that error:
[04:33] <gekko`> sudo of course
[04:33] <AAA> klees  you may have to gunzip your archive before you append to it
[04:33] <klees>  time tar vpzuf backup.tgz --exclude-from=excludes /
[04:33] <damnation> and i still can't seem to connect my wifi up, however..
[04:33] <klees> ic
[04:33] <damnation> i now have my exact chipset name
[04:33] <AAA> damnation  then it is not a wifi device
[04:33] <aujordanh> how do i get my wireless to autoconnect on startup?
[04:33] <damnation> lol
[04:33] <damnation> AAA: it says it is my correct wifi device
[04:34] <damnation> it's a linksys wpc54g
[04:34] <AAA> aujordanh  edit your /etc/network/interfaces file add wireless-essid wireless-key to the script and add it to the auto section (at the top of the file)
[04:34] <aujordanh> AAA, thanks
[04:34] <damnation> but i use iwconfig (or lspci) and i get 'eth1 is a broadcom BCM4318
[04:34] <AAA> ewwww broadcom I'm sorry
[04:34] <damnation> with 'air force 1 54g
[04:34] <ChrisC_> Just to follow up on my enhanced CD question that nobody answered :) , I needed to navigate to the CD in Nautilus in a certain way: using the twisty dropdown arrows.  Clicking straight on the "CD-ROM Disc" shortcut on the left side of Nautilus would not work.
[04:35] <damnation> oh, am i out of luck then,AAA ?
[04:35] <kinection> hello, i'm trying to convert one of my friends to ubuntu. but there is one caveat, she can't get online. I gave her a CD and she installed everything her self and everything is working fine, but i can't get an ip address. I think she did something to kill this though, since when i look at resolv.conf there are two ips there that look right, and the autoupdate manager shows that there are 130 updates!  :P
[04:35] <AAA> BrianG  you can use cfdisk
[04:35] <Plouj> BrianG: ya, mkfat /dev/<usb-device> or whatever
[04:36] <Plouj> BrianG: yeah, you need to use cfdisk first, to create the right sized device
[04:36] <cyanics> damnation, are you using the ndwrapper?
[04:36] <AAA> aujordanh  yeah, just add you device to that ath0 wlan0 eth1 whatever and then add your network settings including wireless-essid
[04:36] <cyanics> damnation, sorry. ndiswrapper.
[04:36] <AAA> damnation  well, what is your essid of the AP?
[04:36] <cyanics> (been away for a bit.
[04:37] <BrianG> how do i find out what the pasth to it is?
[04:37] <kinection> so if windows can get a dhcp address but linux can't. dhclient eth0 doesn't get anything, what can i do? she's using a realtek gig eth on a benq laptop.
[04:37] <damnation> it says i have a broadcom 4318 chipset (i think it's a chipset?) in my wifi card
[04:37] <neoth> gekko: dependency problems... grrr.. xserver-xorg-core is not installed... wtf should i try to apt-get it?
[04:37] <AAA> damnation  ifconfig eth1 up ; iwconfig eth1 essid ssidofyourAP
[04:37] <BrianG> path
[04:37] <AAA> BrianG  echo $PATH
[04:37] <LogicalDash> hey guys, somehow the entry for WinXP has been deleted from GRUB's menu.lst. What sort of entry do I need to make to restore it?
[04:37] <AAA> BrianG  echo $<tab><tab> shows you all your variables
[04:37] <damnation> so type that?
[04:38] <damnation> ok i've copied them
[04:38] <damnation> and will give them a go
[04:38] <AAA> damnation  type the proper name of your AP (prolly default or linksys =p)
[04:38] <gekko`> neoth: yeah, get it
[04:38] <damnation> AAA: i've renamed it 'redemption'
[04:38] <AAA> damnation  good for you
[04:38] <damnation> but can't directly connect to it
[04:38] <AAA> iwconfig eth1 essid redemption
[04:38] <cyanics> damnation, is it wep or wap encrypted?
[04:38] <damnation> um, by default does ubuntu discover the encryption used on WEP?
[04:38] <AAA> damnation  do you have WEP/WPA turned on your AP>?
[04:38] <damnation> WEP 64bit
[04:39] <AAA> damnation  hahah we all wish....
[04:39] <damnation> i used WEP (ascii) with my password
[04:39] <AAA> damnation  that kinda defeats the purpose =p
[04:39] <damnation> what does? :<
[04:39] <neoth> gekko: "...is not available but refered to by another package... missing, has been obsoleteed, or only available from another source..."
[04:39] <aujordanh> AAA, can you glance at my file to see whats wrong?
[04:39] <cyanics> damnation, i would recommend trying to install a different wifi network manager, like wifi-radar
[04:39] <AAA> damnation  then iwconfig eth1 essid redemption enc myasciipasswd
[04:39] <BrianG> i can't use /media/usbdisk/ ?

[04:39] <CokeNCode> jeeze, that latest update was HUGE
[04:39] <CokeNCode> what was in it ?
[04:39] <damnation> should i just forget this and try .. this? http://www.kosmaczewski.net/blogs/tech/archives/2006/02/how_to_install_1.php

[04:41] <Bonds> haha thanks
[04:41] <Bonds> I was just completely fed up with windows
[04:41] <AAA> aujordanh  it is quite wrong, hold
[04:41] <aujordanh> AAA, haha
[04:41] <Bonds> and freeBSD decided to screw up my windows partition
[04:41] <galamud> every time i start my laptop, i have to go to network-admin to configure wireless...under breezy it used to work automatically.  any ideas to fix it?
[04:41] <CokeNCode> ok, update requires a restart
[04:41] <CokeNCode> bbl
[04:41] <rixxon> any nonugly msn client with webcam and proper file transfers in repos?
[04:41] <Bonds> yeah i gotta update also thanks for being friendly
[04:42] <gekko`> neoth: and this: 'cat /boot/config-$(uname -r) | grep INPUT_EVDEV'
[04:42] <AAA> aujordanh  take out lines 9 10 11 and add eth1 to line 1
[04:42] <damnation> AAA: what should i do now? :< hehe, sorry to bother you, i can see your busy
[04:42] <neoth> config_input_evdev=m
[04:42] <damnation> just wanna rectify this so i don't keep booting between ubuntu/  linux to fix my un-ability to get on the net

[04:43] <aujordanh> AAA, the wireless is under eth2
[04:43] <AAA> damnation  do this. ifconfig eth1 up && iwconfig eth1 essid redemption && iwconfig eth1
[04:43] <gekko`> neoth: and this: 'cat /boot/config-$(uname -r) | grep INPUT_MOUSE'
[04:43] <danf_1979> first version, so I need some testers.... :(
[04:43] <damnation> ok
[04:43] <damnation> shall i do it now and come back when i've done it?
[04:43] <AAA> damnation  the last command will show you your signal strenght and whatnot
[04:43] <damnation> ok, thankyou
[04:43] <damnation> um
[04:44] <cyanics> damnation, are you sure you are upping the right nic? how many nics are reported when you do a "ifconfig -a"
[04:44] <gekko`> neoth: and this: 'cat /boot/config-$(uname -r) | grep MOUSE_PS2'
[04:44] <AAA> aujordanh  ok, then s:/eth1/eth2
[04:44] <damnation> i'll check cyanics :)
[04:44] <AAA> aujordanh  make eth2 auto
[04:44] <aujordanh> AAA, so it will say auto eth2 right?
[04:44] <AAA> aujordanh  and change line 8 to eth2
[04:44] <damnation> ok im gonna go try these bunch of commands
[04:45] <damnation> be back soon :> (hopefully in linux)
[04:45] <AAA> aujordanh  then ifconfig eth0 down ; ifconfig eth2 up

[04:46] <LogicalDash> The entry for WinXP in my Grub menu seems to have been overwritten with the most recent Ubuntu update. How do I put it back?
[04:46] <aujordanh> AAA, where?
[04:46] <scrappy_> LogicalDash: there should still be a commented out example for xp
[04:46] <cyanics> LogicalDash, you mean as the default boot entry?
[04:47] <aujordanh> AAA, http://rafb.net/paste/results/zg74g469.html
[04:47] <LogicalDash> no, it was removed entirely, I think because I left it in the Debian Automagic Kernels-something area.
[04:47] <galamud> can anyone help me with my wireless?  every time i reboot my laptop, i have to set it up again in network-admin.
[04:47] <gekko`> neoth: and 'ls /dev/ | grep ps' really outputs nothing?
[04:47] <LogicalDash> I'm not sure if it should be hd0,0 or hd0,1
[04:48] <neoth> gekko yep just did it again
[04:48] <wheelswitch> does ncftp have a gui?
[04:48] <scrappy_> LogicalDash: what is the partition? hda1 or hda2?
[04:48] <LogicalDash> hda1
[04:48] <scrappy_> hd0,0
[04:48] <Plouj> I installed swf-flash, how do I enable it in firefox?
[04:48] <LogicalDash> ok I'll try it...
[04:48] <scrappy_> LogicalDash: also youll prob need the chainloader+1 at the end
[04:49] <wheelswitch> does ncftp have a gui?
[04:49] <aujordanh> Plouj, are you trying to enable flash in firefox?
[04:49] <Plouj> aujordanh: yes

[04:50] <kinection> i think my friend may have disabled ipv4 and is using ipv6 instead, how can i switch it back to ipv4?
[04:50] <BrianG> cfdisk didnt do anything, mkfat didnt exist and echo $PATH didn't show me anyhting usefull
[04:50] <scrappy_> BrianG: what are you looking for?
[04:50] <aujordanh> kinection, in firefox?
[04:50] <BrianG> so i formated it on a windows PC in half the time it took me to ask
[04:51] <kinection> aujordanh: in everywhere, even dhcp client can't get an address
[04:51] <hyphenated> BrianG: mkfs.vfat
[04:51] <kinection> aujordanh: i think it's because of ipv6, not certain
[04:51] <sethk> BrianG, mkdosfs
[04:51] <aujordanh> okay i can do it in firefox not the entire system
[04:51] <BrianG> scrappy_: my USB stick was reporting the wrong capacity, was looking for a way to format it in ubuntu?
[04:51] <sethk> as in mkdosfs /dev/fd0 for a floppy
[04:51] <BrianG> mkdosfs /dev/sda i think it would have been?
[04:52] <sethk> BrianG, you want the entire device, no partitions?  windows doesn't like that
[04:52] <gekko`> neoth: ok, let's try this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19656
[04:52] <BrianG> its a 512mb usb drive
[04:52] <sethk> BrianG, better name to use is:   mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
[04:52] <sethk> BrianG, even on those windows makes a partition table and partitions
[04:52] <gekko`> neoth: oh wait, i made a mistake
[04:52] <BrianG> well i formated it in windows just now
[04:52] <BrianG> so im sure its fine
[04:53] <AAA> aujordanh  you also need that lo in line1
[04:53] <wheelswitch> i would like an ftp program that can have multiple connections to one ftp server, any ideas?
[04:53] <scrappy_> BrianG: if you type mk and hit tab twice it will dislay all the possible commands depending on file type you want also the apropos command like apropos fat
[04:53] <sethk> BrianG, should be, yes. I was just clearing up the confusion about it being easy to do in linux
[04:53] <BrianG> sethk: why sda1? the device is sda isnt it?
[04:53] <aujordanh> AAA, auto lo eth2 and we're good right?
[04:53] <sethk> BrianG, sda1 is the first partition on device sda.  do this:   fdisk -l /dev/sda        if you see a partition table, then you use sda1
[04:54] <sethk> BrianG, if it's mounted already in linux you can just do:    mount    (no arguments, just mount)  which shows you what's currently mounted
[04:54] <AAA> aujordanh  should be, to test ifconfig eth2 down and then ifconfig eth2 up
[04:54] <gekko`> neoth: here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19657
[04:54] <BrianG> oh... /dev/sda1 on /media/usbdisk type vfat
[04:55] <sethk> BrianG, right, that's how windows does it.  same for digital camera cards, other types of memory sticks, etc.
[04:55] <aujordanh> AAA, here goes,
[04:55] <AAA> aujordanh  good luck
[04:55] <sethk> BrianG, so if you want to be able to see it in windows, and you want to set it up in linux, you have to do  fdisk /dev/sda      create one partition taking up the entire thing, then mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
[04:56] <sethk> BrianG, or do it in windows as you already know  :)
[04:56] <BrianG> thanks!
[04:57] <rixth> Alrighty. I just reinstalled Dapper, now I have some weird glitch with the screen not being redrawn. http://i1.tinypic.com/23kakcw.png The black bits are where I was actually pressing the left mouse button. This thing makes image editing impossible. This also happens in <textarea> tags on web pages.
[04:57] <neoth> gekko: looking better. i need to get the synaptics package installed (x was looking for it according to the logs). i can copy them if you want to take a look.
[04:57] <holycow> jesus
[04:57] <gekko`> neoth: yeah, sure
[04:57] <holycow> how the hell can anyone run windows
[04:58] <holycow> this bloody thing requires infinite reboots
[04:58] <aujordanh> AAA, it seems as if nothing happened
[04:58] <aujordanh> is that what we want?
[04:58] <aujordanh> AAA, usually silence in linux is good...
[04:58] <aujordanh> AAA, i don't think it worked...
[04:59] <neoth> gekko: http://www.joshanddanielswebsite.com/daphreak/Xorg.0.log
[04:59] <aj1> Is there a dummy package to install X Server and gnome?
[05:00] <hyphenated> aj1: ubuntu-desktop
[05:00] <ajt> hyphenated: thanks
[05:00] <gekko`> neoth: yes, you need that synaptics package
[05:02] <Ross> hey, i'm new to the whole linux scene, although i have a bit of experience.  i'm trying to install ubuntu on a new dell laptop, and dual boot with windows....
[05:03] <Ross> i've downloaded the cd, and burned it...it starts to boot, but then stops, and gives me an A:/ prompt, labeled dr-dos
[05:03] <Bonez> hi, I installed kubuntu-desktop but then didn't like KDE, so removed all the packages via synaptec. but now my splash/boot screen says Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu, is there any way I can change this back to Ubuntu?
[05:04] <scrappy_> Bonez: i think you can sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm or something like that
[05:04] <neoth> gekko: dependencies are a version of libc6 (i just did apt-get for it and it still doesnt come up with a new enough version for it) as well as xserver-xorg-core which wont come up in apt-get
[05:05] <neoth> gekko: could it be my sources (im pretty sure i rebuilt them correctly)
[05:05] <rixth> Alrighty. I just reinstalled Dapper, now I have some weird glitch with the screen not being redrawn. http://i1.tinypic.com/23kakcw.png The black bits are where I was actually pressing the left mouse button. This thing makes image editing impossible. This also happens in <textarea> tags on web pages.
[05:05] <AAA> Bonez  I wouldn't even worry about the splash screen, I think you can change it via grub if you want
[05:06] <gekko`> neoth: what does 'apt-get install xserver-xorg-core' tell you?
[05:06] <Ross> is there a universal install-guide for ubuntu?
[05:07] <neoth> gekko: xserver-xorg-core is not available, but is referred to by another package
[05:07] <pppoehelpplzzz> i am in need of help
[05:07] <scrappy_> Ross: there is wiki.ubuntu.com or help.ubuntu.com which is i think more linear..
[05:07] <hyphenated> Ross: sure. Boot the install CD. Once it completes booting, double-click the 'Install' icon ;-)
[05:07] <Ross> lol
[05:07] <pppoehelpplzzz> i am trying ubuntu on live cd
[05:08] <Ross> for some reason, it doesn't seem to get past the first part of the installation
[05:08] <damnation> i'm back.. but im in windows again =[
[05:08] <damnation> none of those commands helped me
[05:08] <pppoehelpplzzz> how do i get it to connect to the internet on a cable modem (ppc port)
[05:08] <damnation> should i head towards installing ndiswrapper
[05:09] <gekko`> neoth: then check your sources.list for this line: http://xx.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-updates main
[05:10] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  do you have an eth0 on your box? ifconfig -a will show you
[05:10] <pppoehelpplzzz> i do have an eathernet card if thats what you mean
[05:10] <neoth> gekko so im guessing its not a good thing that im running hoary
[05:10] <carthik> Hi, how can I reformat a partition (/dev/sda1) as an ext3 drive from the command line?
[05:11] <gekko`> neoth: ohhh
[05:11] <Leeif> is there a cvs repository for ubuntu?
[05:11] <scrappy_> carthik: mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1
[05:11] <gekko`> neoth: well, i didn't know that
[05:11] <neoth> gekko the line is there (hoary not dapper of course)
[05:11] <TheMoebius> is there a GUI program for font management? something that lists the fonts you have and makes it easy to install new ones, etc?
[05:11] <neoth> gekko my bad
[05:11] <tivoklr> isn't that geico?
[05:11] <bruenig> TheMoedbius, System>Preferences>Fonts?
[05:12] <gekko`> neoth: so it's called 'hoary-updates main' right?
[05:12] <pppoehelpplzzz> im tring dapper should i have gotton hoary??
[05:12] <neoth> gekko "hoary-updates main restricted"
[05:12] <TheMoebius> bruenig: that only allows you to change font preferences
[05:12] <Leeif> i need gnome cs
[05:12] <Leeif> *cvs
[05:12] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  no dapper is current and stable, your computer is behind a firewall/DSL modem?
[05:12] <gekko`> neoth: ok, did you just added that repository?
[05:12] <thinh> anyone play nexuiz?
[05:13] <damnation> AAA: should i just use ndiswrapper?
[05:13] <pppoehelpplzzz> a motorola surfboard cable modem
[05:13] <thinh> how u start nexuiz
[05:13] <neoth> gekko no it was there since i redid the sources list
[05:13] <damnation> i'm pretty sure it won't work otherwise..
[05:13] <pppoehelpplzzz> it doesnt give me the option to add a new connection (mind you im on the live cd )
[05:13] <AAA> damnation  copy your device name and paste that into google and add +linux I don't know what driver you need dude
[05:14] <EcW> hi..
[05:14] <EcW> im downloading updates, almost downloaded 123 of 154
[05:14] <damnation> i know what drive i need
[05:14] <damnation> i'm just asking
[05:14] <thinh> anyone know how run nexuiz i install from the zip, do i have to use wine with it?
[05:14] <Crane> I have motorolla surfboard
[05:14] <damnation> should i try ndiswrapper, since i can't get it working normally?
[05:15] <EcW> i want to stop it now, but there is not button. just a cancel button. if i press cancel button so from next time when i install update again it will start updating from the same or will start update newly
[05:15] <scrappy_> thinh: does the executable say .exe? if so its a good bet yes
[05:15] <AAA> damnation  if there is a native linux driver, use it. the only reason to use the ndiswrapper is if you have a card that doesn't have a native linux driver.  I do not know about your card.  A simple google search will tell you.
[05:15] <gekko`> neoth: well, then you downloaded the wrong .deb package
[05:15] <pppoehelpplzzz> so how do i egt ubuntu to let me add a connection on its live cd ver. or do i have to install it to get the option to be there its dapper 6.06 lts
[05:16] <neoth> gekko ahhh
[05:16] <gekko`> neoth: here is the one for hoary http://packages.ubuntu.com/hoary/x11/xorg-driver-synaptics
[05:16] <EcW> i want to stop update.
[05:16] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  dhclient eth0 should get you a connection if your ethernet device has a driver and a link
[05:16] <the_hammer> !pastebin
[05:16] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[05:17] <thinh> is there are channel for games?
[05:17] <gekko`> neoth: that should solve your xserver-xorg-core problem. because there is no such package in hoary :)
[05:17] <ju1ce> I put sw_cursor in my xorg so my tv out can work with my ati card but now my mouse is all glitchy, any way to fix this?
[05:17] <pppoehelpplzzz> its a standard apple ethernet card 10/100 base t
[05:17] <cmpalmer> anybody have a mic working with a "Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 04)" under dapper?
[05:17] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  what does ifconfig eth0 say?
[05:17] <pppoehelpplzzz> dhclient eth0 it that a command or a file or ??
[05:17] <neoth> gekko lol! that could be a problem.. ill try this out
[05:17] <ezenu> are there any decent open source games out? that aren't difficult to install?
[05:18] <AAA> dhclient eth0 is a command to get dhcp from a dhcp server on eth0
[05:18] <pppoehelpplzzz> im not sure i only have 1 working comp at the moenent and im on it looking for help
[05:18] <gekko`> neoth: just use 'apt-get update' and then 'apt-get install apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics'
[05:18] <Tamale> pengiun racer  :)
[05:18] <thinh> wolfenstien enemy terrorotyr is pretty good
[05:18] <J2D2> I ran the command apt-get dist-upgrade and i got an error, its long, can i paste it?
[05:18] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  do you have an eth0 (ifconfig eth0)
[05:18] <rixth> Alrighty. I just reinstalled Dapper, now I have some weird glitch with the screen not being redrawn. http://i1.tinypic.com/23kakcw.png The black bits are where I was actually pressing the left mouse button. This thing makes image editing impossible. This also happens in <textarea> tags on web pages.
[05:18] <gekko`> one apt-get install too much
[05:18] <AAA> rixth  can you paste that 10 more times?
[05:18] <scrappy_> thinh: there is ubuntu-offtopic if you just want to chat about games under linux or whatever
[05:19] <pppoehelpplzzz> but the pppoeconf script said that there was no lan card available
[05:19] <AAA> rixth  if someone has an answer to you question they will tell you, I don't know
[05:19] <pppoehelpplzzz> all it gives me is tty0, 1, 2 ect.
[05:19] <BrianG> why is banshee using freedb and not musicbrainz?
[05:19] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  will you just try what I say?  you first need an ethernet device (with drivers) to connect ppoe
[05:19] <rixth> AAA, every ten minutes, so new people see it.
[05:19] <gekko`> neoth: I meant 'apt-get install xorg-driver-synaptics', pasted the wrong package
[05:20] <pppoehelpplzzz> i have one
[05:20] <doughboy> I am thinking about purchasing a laptop tomorrow and was wondering if there is a website that could be recommended in order to set up a linksys wireless router in Ubuntu. I am a newbie with wireless routers and need all the help I can get.
[05:20] <pppoehelpplzzz> eth0 is there
[05:20] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  good, now do mii-tool eth0
[05:20] <Tamale> rixth:  Have you tried re-seating your graphics card?
[05:20] <Tamale> Those look like genuine artifacts
[05:20] <oxez> I'm having a small bug with compiz: when compiz is turned on, some apps' title bar go under my top panel. And when I right click on their icons in the taskbar to "move" them, there is no way to get out of the "Moving" mode.. any hint? lol
[05:20] <pppoehelpplzzz> mii-tool eth0 in the terminal right
[05:20] <Tamale> oxez:  Escape should get you out of the "move" mode
[05:20] <thinh> how do i join another channel noob
[05:20] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  yes, it will tell you if you have a link
[05:21] <rixth> Tamale, this is a brand new system, so that could explain why they just appear. I shall try that!
[05:21] <scrappy_> doughboy: from what i hear avoid broadcom wifi cards
[05:21] <baconbacon> doughboy, the local wireless card is the preoccupation when using wireless with linux, the router will work
[05:21] <AAA> thinh  /join #channel
[05:21] <neoth> gekko the package you linked me to installed fine
[05:21] <oxez> Tamale: oh, ok thanks
[05:21] <Tamale> also, you can contrain windows to your view
[05:21] <nbound> is there any way to get anything above flash 7 workin?
[05:21] <Tamale> so that won't happen
[05:21] <pppoehelpplzzz> it just gives me that > symbol like its incomplete or something
[05:21] <gekko`> neoth: ok, if you installed that package, try running your xserver
[05:21] <baconbacon> doughboy: most intel wireless are supported by an oss driver
[05:21] <Frankenstein> !upgrade

[05:22] <gekko`> neoth: what's the error message this time?
[05:22] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  don't get so frustrated so quickly
[05:22] <AAA> pppoehelpplzzz  sounds like you don't have a driver for your NICz

[05:24] <AAA> nbound  what are you trying to do?
[05:25] <Tamale> can i have php4 and 5 on at the same time?
[05:25] <Tamale> or should i just have 5 ?
[05:25] <gekko`> neoth: ok, this is a bit different. what does 'ls /dev/ | grep ps' and 'ls /dev/input' say now?
[05:25] <nbound> AAA, wondering if theres any way other than running firefox under WINE, to get flash 8 and above working
[05:25] <AAA> Tamale  your webserver will only honor one or the other
[05:26] <Tamale> is one generally more used?
[05:26] <AAA> nbound  crap.  I have few ideas
[05:26] <neoth> gekko same things... should i restart the system? (i have no idea if that would help)
[05:26] <AAA> Tamale  depends on what your are doing with your php I guess
[05:26] <nbound> AAA, please share... its gettin to be an annoyance :(
[05:26] <gekko`> neoth: ahh...you did pasted the wrong xorg.conf
[05:27] <dura> Is anyone here using postfix?

[05:27] <AAA> nbound  hehe, nothing that is practical.  don't tell me you want this for myspace
[05:27] <gekko`> neoth: /dev/event0 but it should be /dev/input/event0
[05:27] <dura> I can't make it stop wanting to use smtp-amavis
[05:27] <tivoklr> i swear i'm gonna smack the person that fingered up this monitor...
[05:27] <neoth> gekko ill make the change hold on
[05:27] <nbound> AAA, no not for myspace, though i use it occasionally
[05:27] <AAA> dura  update-rc.d -f smtp-amavis remove && /etc/init.d/smtp-amavis stop
[05:27] <yggdrasil> hello, i just installed a combo pci usb ethernet firewire card in my ppc bases system i can see the devices in lspci and was wondering how can i check to see they are functional ?
[05:27] <Zambezi> AAA, I have really strange problems. If you know Swedish, you can see the pastebin. Becasue of the packages, I can't even use apt-get upgrade.
[05:28] <dura> AAA: Okay...
[05:28] <nbound> AAA, just all the sites that have flash 8 these days... though flash 9 would of course be a bonus
[05:28] <AAA> Zambezi  just en
[05:28] <dura> well... smtp-amavis wasn't there in /etc/init.d/
[05:29] <AAA> nbound  I hear ya, I don't mess with flash enough to care really

[05:29] <AAA> yggdrasil  you are so crusty ;)
[05:29] <Zambezi> AAA, If you spoke German, you might recognize some words. I think I have to reinstall the system during the week.
[05:30] <yggdrasil> aaa yar
[05:30] <dura> AAA: No... i removed it... I've unstalled/reinstalled postfix like 7 times now too trying to make it stop complaining about amavis

[05:42] <sovi3t> searayman: you could always go out and buy an ati or nvidia
[05:42] <Ireclan> Hello. I'm having difficulties installing Ubuntu 6.06
[05:43] <klees> shawnr_: i dont see the plugin in the repo...
[05:43] <searayman> sovi3t:  what are they runnign at price range?
[05:43] <Bonez> i'm using gparted at the moment to resize a FAT32 partition, how long should I expect this to take? it's been about 30 minutes and nothing has happened so far, the progress bar just keeps flashing side to side.
[05:43] <Ireclan> I also have a few questions.
[05:43] <forevertheuni> pozdiy, tnx i'll try(you help 10 minutes ago :D)
[05:43] <sovi3t> searayman: i bought my nvidia for like 60-70
[05:43] <sovi3t> searayman: and nvidias drivers work a lot better on linux than ati
[05:43] <searayman> sovi3t:  k thanks
[05:43] <TooDamFast> ok,  glxgears -info just dumps a ton of crap in my console but no fps...
[05:43] <niran> i installed msttcorefonts, but firefox is still using ugly fonts instead of the real ones
[05:43] <gekko`> neoth: does 'cat /boot/config-$(uname -r) | grep DELL' output something?
[05:43] <klees> shawnr_: nvm i see it
[05:43] <yggdrasil> cornellius took that from fifth element ehh ?.. actualy took it from a tree, an old tree. that bound heaven and hell together .. at least way back befor anything else was thought
[05:43] <sovi3t> searayman np
[05:43] <shawnr_> klees, did you search? mozilla-mplayer
[05:43] <searayman> sovi3t: will it easily work woh ubuntu?
[05:43] <Ireclan> My first question is:
[05:44] <niran> does anyone know how to turn off the alias for Times New Roman, Helvetica, etc?
[05:44] <klees> shawnr_: saw it
[05:44] <forevertheuni> pozdiy, but it's not working
[05:44] <prophet> anyone have any idea why when i minimize my apps they disappear from the bottom panel? something in XGL?
[05:44] <Cornellius> yggdrasil: It's also the name of a ship in a game :)
[05:44] <forevertheuni> pozdiy, i've reboot and all :/
[05:44] <sovi3t> searayman: i didnt have any problems at all setting it up
[05:44] <sovi3t> searayman: ati was a different story though
[05:44] <Ireclan> Why did they make the install CD the only rout of permanent installation?
[05:44] <searayman> sovi3t: so go nvidia?
[05:44] <TooDamFast> ati sucks...
[05:44] <yggdrasil> cornellius yea i know, never played the game though i get that alot
[05:44] <sovi3t> searayman: yea
[05:45] <pozdiy_> forevertheuni, tell me if the --force worked for you, it does for me
[05:45] <TooDamFast> ireclan did you try safe mode on the live cd?
[05:45] <Cornellius> TooDamFast: Be nice please.
[05:45] <Bonez> i'm using gparted at the moment to resize a FAT32 partition, how long should I expect this to take? it's been about 30 minutes and nothing has happened so far, the progress bar just keeps flashing side to side.
[05:45] <Ireclan> No.
[05:45] <TooDamFast> it was the only way i could get it to load
[05:45] <TooDamFast> worked fine once i got it installed.
[05:46] <searayman> sovi3t: do u know anything about edgy by the way?
[05:46] <the_hammer> !pastebin
[05:46] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[05:46] <forevertheuni> I have an error on ifup Invalid command : AuthMode=WPAPSK
[05:46] <mheath[laptop] > Ireclan, it is not the only mode of installation, though it is the only 'official' mode of installation.
[05:46] <forevertheuni> I have pre-up iwpriv ra0 AuthMode=WPAPSK
[05:46] <sovi3t> searayman not really
[05:46] <Bonez> i'm using gparted at the moment to resize a FAT32 partition, how long should I expect this to take? it's been about 30 minutes and nothing has happened so far, the progress bar just keeps flashing side to side.
[05:46] <mheath[laptop] > Ireclan, be aware, though, that there is also an 'alternative' install CD that offers more customization and configuration options.
[05:46] <forevertheuni> probably I don't have rt2500 package installed :/ is it needed? or it comes with ubuntu?
[05:46] <mheath[laptop] > Ireclan, following tutorials online, though, it is also possible to install off of a knoppix livecd, install off floppy disks, or install off the network.
[05:46] <searayman> sovi3t:  also do u know any good fps that i coudl play on ubuntu with my graphics card?
[05:47] <the_hammer> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19660
[05:47] <vilefridge> Hello everyone!  I've ran into a rather strange problem last night.  I let Update manager go ahead and do a sleugh of updates.  Upon rebooting, my font size for everything (Windows, Programs, icons on desktop, etc..)  was sooo small.  I have no idea how to fix this.  I've been to #xubuntu and toyed around with User Interface settings without any luck.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Anyone heard of this happening before?  Is this
[05:47] <vilefridge>  a bug?
[05:47] <Ireclan> Thankyou. I shall try that. Because when I try the default rout, it takes FOREVER to do a damn thing, even though I meet the memory requirements for the livecd.
[05:47] <sovi3t> searayman: not really, i dont do much gaming on this box
[05:47] <Bonez> i'm using gparted at the moment to resize a FAT32 partition, how long should I expect this to take? it's been about 30 minutes and nothing has happened so far, the progress bar just keeps flashing side to side.
[05:48] <TooDamFast> ive spent about 6 hrs trying to get a good fps on my ati x850 pro card with cedega.  after reading on the web it looks like i will be buying a new card.
[05:48] <searayman> anyone know anythign about games on ubuntu?
[05:48] <lightstar> vilefridge, are you on xfce now?
[05:48] <shawnr_> searayman, be a bit more specific
[05:48] <sovi3t> searayman: you could always browse through the games section in synaptic
[05:48] <shawnr_> is there a all-in-one howto site for ubuntu 64 like this one for 32 ?-> http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu_dapper
[05:49] <searayman> shawnr_:  want to know a easily instable fps to play on ubuntu
[05:49] <shawnr_> ahhh
[05:49] <vilefridge> lightstar, yes
[05:49] <shawnr_> searayman, single or multi
[05:49] <TheMoebius> so if I've just copied a new font into the fonts dir, so I have to restart my x server to start using it?
[05:49] <klees> shawnr_: i installed the mplayer plugin, now how can i tell it to automatically open .wmv files within the browser??
[05:49] <shawnr_> restart browser
[05:50] <searayman> shawnr_:  i would like multi
[05:50] <yggdrasil> you might alwso have to install lib avcodec
[05:50] <shawnr_> you need the w32 codecs for wmv
[05:50] <searayman> shawnr_:  and i didnt really like wolfenstien enemy territory
[05:50] <TooDamFast> unreal tournament 2004 has native support for linux.
[05:50] <klees> i have them installed
[05:50] <lightstar> vilefridge, you can either do 1 of two things to get your font proper size...run gnome-settings-daemon or edit the .gtkrc-2.0 file and add 'gtk-font-name="verdana 12"' in that file
[05:50] <TooDamFast> its about the best you do right now...
[05:50] <searayman> is unreal free?
[05:50] <shawnr_> searayman, like what are you looking for, counter strike?
[05:50] <TooDamFast> nope
[05:50] <shawnr_> searayman, no
[05:50] <searayman> shawnr_:  soemthign free
[05:50] <shawnr_> you need to wolfinstine mod
[05:50] <Bonez> i'm using gparted at the moment to resize a FAT32 partition, how long should I expect this to take? it's been about 30 minutes and nothing has happened so far, the progress bar just keeps flashing side to side.
[05:50] <damnation`> no luck, forgot to d/l ndiswrapper =[
[05:50] <searayman> shawnr_:  that i dont need a brilliant graphics card for
[05:51] <klees> shawnr_: it still asking me what program to use to open the file...
[05:51] <sovi3t> searayman: americas army has native linux support
[05:51] <vilefridge> lightstar, hrmmm -->  eric@ubuntu:~$ gnome-settings-daemon You can only run one xsettings manager at a time; exiting
[05:51] <sagarp> where is gnome-config in ubuntu?? it's not in gnome-libs-data or whatever
[05:51] <skavenge> could try tremulous or america's army, they're both free
[05:51] <skavenge> its all fps though
[05:51] <shawnr_> no no no
[05:51] <searayman> sovi3t:  but didnt they stop linux with it?

[05:51] <lightstar> vilefridge, i tried it b4 n it worked..but i wouldnt recommend it though...takes up resources...try the 2nd method
[05:52] <shawnr_> seam, TRUE COMBAT ELITE
[05:52] <_priest> damnation`: tar zxvf file.tar.gz
[05:52] <lightstar> vilefridge, remember to logout and login again for the .gtkrc-2.0 file to take effect

[06:04] <_priest> sudo /usr/share/bcm43xx-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh
[06:05] <_priest> why not just run that script
[06:05] <shawnr_> ahhhhhhh
[06:05] <_priest> after installing bcm43xx-fwcutter?
[06:05] <circasurvive> _priest: i didnt see that haha

[06:05] <_priest> hehe
[06:06] <circasurvive> _priest: i have ndiswrapper with that driver installed, should i uninstall ndiswrappers?
[06:06] <wasauce> can anyone help me setup wake on lan? Is there something I need to set in ubuntu for is it just at the bios level?
[06:06] <neoth> gekko error again
[06:07] <gekko`> neoth: give me the output of 'dmesg'
[06:07] <_priest> circasurvive: you need to rmmod bcm43xx and rmmod ndiswrapper
[06:07] <circasurvive> do what
[06:07] <_priest> circasurvive: oh it looks like the driver is already present
[06:07] <circasurvive> sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper -priest
[06:07] <_priest> circasurvive: you just need to update your firmware
[06:07] <circasurvive> ?
[06:08] <kellan> i'm an ubuntu newbie (but experienced debian user), and i'm trying to help a friend with his ubuntu install, but i notice he doesn't have /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:08] <kellan> is there some first step we're missing?
[06:08] <_priest> circasurvive: update your firmware, then sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[06:08] <circasurvive> should i uninstall the ndiswrapper though to clear up the network connections
[06:08] <_priest> circasurvive: nah
[06:08] <_priest> circasurvive: that won't matter
[06:08] <circasurvive> okay
[06:08] <circasurvive> so how do i update my firmware
[06:08] <neoth> gekko http://www.joshanddanielswebsite.com/daphreak/dmesg
[06:08] <cool_nick> i am new to linux. can anybody suggest me to which log files i have to keep a look at?
[06:08] <_priest> circasurvive: sudo /usr/share/bcm43xx-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh
[06:08] <_priest> like that
[06:09] <circasurvive> the alternative code?
[06:09] <_priest> circasurvive: that comes from apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[06:09] <circasurvive> i did that
[06:09] <_priest> circasurvive: yea
[06:09] <circasurvive> okay
[06:09] <_priest> circasurvive: ok your firmware is updated, now you need to load the bcm driver
[06:09] <circasurvive> that was done when you pointed it out
[06:09] <_priest> circasurvive: sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[06:09] <sovi3t> cool_nick: generally /var/log/syslog and /var/log/dmesg are pretty good ones to watch
[06:09] <_priest> and sudo modprobe ndiswrapper if you haven't already
[06:09] <circasurvive> do that too?
[06:09] <circasurvive> why
[06:10] <wasauce> can anyone help me setup wake on lan? Is there something I need to set inside ubuntu or is it just at the bios level?
[06:10] <_priest> circasurvive: is ndiswrapper loaded already?
[06:10] <circasurvive> i am not sure
[06:10] <sovi3t> wasauce: bios
[06:10] <circasurvive> no
[06:10] <_priest> wasauce: thats a bios thing
[06:10] <_priest> circasurvive: do lsmod |grep ndis
[06:10] <_priest> sudo lsmod |grep ndis
[06:10] <circasurvive> okay
[06:10] <wasauce> thank you
[06:10] <cool_nick> sovi3t: thanks

[06:13] <shawnr_> is there a all-in-one howto site for ubuntu 64 like this one for 32 ?-> http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu_dapper
[06:13] <_priest> circasurvive: sudo ifconfig
[06:14] <circasurvive> i am!
[06:14] <_priest> does that output any ethX devices?
[06:14] <circasurvive> nope
[06:14] <Awesome-o2000> phargle, einhorn=finkle!!!!
[06:14] <_priest> what about sudo dmesg
[06:14] <_priest> shawnr_: what do you need to know that is different from x86?
[06:14] <circasurvive> i am not seeing anything
[06:15] <_priest> circasurvive: sudo lsmod |grep bcm
[06:15] <_priest> ?
[06:15] <UbuntuJulez> :)
[06:15] <gekko`> neoth: is in your /dev folder anything like mouse?
[06:15] <circasurvive> bcm43xx               124044  0
[06:15] <circasurvive> ieee80211softmac       29696  1 bcm43xx
[06:15] <circasurvive> ieee80211              37064  2 bcm43xx,ieee80211softmac
[06:16] <farous> circasurvive: do you also use ndiswrapper or just the native support for the bcm card
[06:16] <circasurvive> i modprobed both
[06:16] <NeoEcoS> hello, anyone can tellme how to report a bug ?
[06:16] <_priest> i hate wireless
[06:17] <circasurvive> well i need it
[06:17] <farous> wlan is normally ndiswrapper
[06:17] <circasurvive> i dont think i am supposed to load ndiswrapper
[06:17] <aujordanh> how do you open a .sh file?
[06:17] <farous> eth1 or 2 is native support
[06:17] <neoth> gekko nope not really
[06:17] <circasurvive> i tried everything for ndiswrapper and it didnt work
[06:17] <sovi3t> aujordanh: as in execute it or edit it
[06:17] <neoth> gekko think this could be fixed using a usb mouse? or other external pointer?
[06:17] <_priest> circasurvive: can you do $sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[06:17] <_priest> ?
[06:18] <circasurvive> no scan results
[06:18] <aujordanh> sovi3t, execute, sorry how do you run a .sh file?
[06:18] <farous> circasurvive: greaat so you do not have it. after modprobing the bcm modules you need sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[06:18] <Rub3X> everytime I try and partition it freezes @ 14% zero filling the drive doesn't work due to Input/output errors, anyone know how to fix this?  sata2 drive running in sata mode
[06:18] <circasurvive> so what do i do/
[06:19] <sovi3t> aujordanh: ./[file] .sh
[06:19] <_priest> circasurvive: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[06:19] <gekko`> neoth: yea, i think so
[06:19] <sovi3t> aujordanh: or sh ./[file] .sh
[06:19] <vilefridge> _priest: no luck with the font change.  Is there any way to revert the updates that caused all this ruckus?
[06:19] <gekko`> neoth: does it have a ps/2 port?
[06:19] <_priest> vilefridge: i dont know what your original problem was
[06:20] <neoth> gekko its got a port im not sure if you need a splitter or something to hook both a keyboard and mouse up...
[06:20] <circasurvive> a lot just popped yp
[06:20] <circasurvive> up*
[06:20] <vilefridge> _priest, Update Manager did a bunch of updates, rebooted, and then font size was super small.  Some of the font sizes are back to normal, but applications still are using a smaller than normal font.  (Skype, conky, XChat, GAIM, etc) to name a few atm.
[06:21] <farous> circasurvive: now type iwconfig
[06:21] <circasurvive> okay it finsihed
[06:21] <circasurvive> finished**
[06:21] <gekko`> neoth: well, the keyboard of the laptop works doesn't it?
[06:21] <circasurvive> no what
[06:21] <circasurvive> now
[06:21] <ManiacKY> Okay. This is driving me crazy. I have a external hard drive that I will need to remove from my PC daily. However I can never get ubuntu to see it unless its plugged in while the system boots up! If I unmount it, remove it from the PC and then plug it back in it would mount or find the device again. :( I have to reboot before it finds it again. I can't be rebooting every day for other users are connected to this system at the same time. Any suggestions on
[06:21] <_priest> vilefridge: you may want to kill gdm/gnome and log into a vt
[06:21] <vilefridge> _priest, I think the updates were Gnome Theme related?  yet... I use XFCE.
[06:21] <_priest> vilefridge: then remove ~/.g*
[06:21] <_priest> and restart gnome
[06:21] <vilefridge> _priest, not using gnome..  does this apply to XFCE as well?
[06:22] <neoth> gekko yeah so i guess it doesnt matter
[06:22] <ShaunLAP> I've got two servers connected with irssi
[06:22] <ShaunLAP> How do I change the windows?
[06:22] <circasurvive> now what farous
[06:22] <_priest> vilefridge: i think xfce reads information from gtkrc files
[06:22] <farous> type iwconfig in  a terminal
[06:22] <circasurvive> i did
[06:22] <farous> what was the result
[06:22] <circasurvive> umm wlan0 had no essid or anything
[06:23] <gekko`> neoth: if you have a ps/2 mouse plug it in but before run 'tail -f /var/log/messages'
[06:23] <_priest> circasurvive: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[06:23] <farous> circasurvive: try lsmod |grep ndisw
[06:23] <scrappy_> ManiacKY: you can always just sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/usb0 or whatever
[06:23] <farous> just wana check if you have it
[06:23] <sovi3t> ManiacKY: try finding out which kernel module your hd is using, then you can sudo modprobe [module]  to get it back
[06:23] <neoth> gekko: little late... im booting up with the mouse in now
[06:23] <circasurvive> no scan results
[06:23] <circasurvive> and ndiswrappers are loaded
[06:23] <gekko`> neoth: ok
[06:24] <ManiacKY> scrappy_ Thats what I've been trying. It can't detect /dev/sda1 once I unplug it and reconnect it. Only if I reboot the system will it allow me to mount /dev/sda1 again
[06:24] <_priest> farous: i always thought the interfaces wifi or local were bout to ethX
[06:24] <farous> circasurvive: this is your problem you have to remove the ndiswrapper
[06:24] <circasurvive> okay
[06:24] <_priest> s/bout/bound
[06:24] <neoth> gekko then ill edit xorg.conf correct?
[06:24] <circasurvive> how do i un-modprobe them
[06:24] <gekko`> neoth: check if there is any device in /dev/ or /dev/input called mouse or mice
[06:25] <farous> _priest: for the wrappers it is wlan for native support it is ethx
[06:25] <sovi3t> ManiacKY: sudo dmesg when you plug it back in and see what it says
[06:25] <vilefridge> _priest, is there some way to check if there are other g* files I might not want to be deleting?  They appear hidden?
[06:25] <farous> circasurvive: depend how you installed them you have to retrace your steps to remove th ndiswrapper
[06:25] <neoth> gekko alright will do
[06:25] <farous> circasurvive: a good choice is to remove the ndiswrapper packages you installed
[06:26] <willys_fueguino> hi!! i just instaled ubuntu but i have problems with xserver
[06:26] <circasurvive> okay
[06:26] <circasurvive> wait uck
[06:26] <circasurvive> i have to reboot
[06:26] <NeoEcoS> Who can tell me how to report a bug on a package  ??
[06:26] <sovi3t> willys_fueguino: whats your problem
[06:26] <farous> circasurvive: good luck
[06:26] <DanaG> Aaargh, alsaconf has been REMOVED?
[06:27] <DanaG> AAArgh, now how am I supposed to set the sound cards' IDs?
[06:27] <scrappy_> ManiacKY: also after replug do maybe ls -t /dev/ | head does a sda or sdb device show up?
[06:27] <ManiacKY> sovi3t What does this do? Just list all the devices? Or does it actualy reset/clear something
[06:27] <crimsun> DanaG: why would you need alsaconf to set ids/
[06:27] <DanaG> I have 2 sound cards, and the wrong one s taking slot 0.
[06:27] <DaveLibu> hello   i have been having problems getting the talk program to work in ubuntu
[06:27] <crimsun> DanaG: I believe I addressed that precise question earlier yesterday.
[06:27] <sovi3t> ManiacKY: it gives you hardware debugging output
[06:27] <DaveLibu> i installed talk and talkd
[06:27] <DanaG> It's defaulting to my non-disableable onboard sound, but I want to use the external one.
[06:28] <DanaG> I can't even find a file that had the "alias sound-card-0 snd-hda-intel"
[06:28] <ManiacKY> scrappy_ its still getting assigned sda it looks
[06:28] <crimsun> DanaG: so set it by using the graphical interface (System> Preferences> Sound> Set default card), or just use asoundconf(1) directly
[06:28] <willys_fueguino> sovi3t; xserver wont load, its a bug but its suposed to run with the 2.6.15-23 kernel, and thats the kernel that i have!!
[06:29] <DaveLibu> i am ubuntu in this vt    i have another user account running in another vt
[06:29] <sovi3t> willys_fueguino, so whats it doing
[06:29] <ManiacKY> scrappy_ But it still saying mount point /dev/sda1 doesn't exist now that I've replugged it back in
[06:29] <crimsun> DanaG: you're making it more difficult than it really is. Forget about the sound-card- aliases.
[06:30] <ManiacKY> scrappy_ When I try to remount it
[06:30] <scrappy_> ManiacKY: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda what partitions does it list?
[06:30] <willys_fueguino> sovi3t, i dont know what to do
[06:30] <scrappy_> ManiacKY: er just do sudo cfdisk /dev/sda
[06:30] <ManiacKY> scrappy_ Um it doesn't list or do anything it just sends me to the back the command prompt, no output
[06:30] <sovi3t> willys_fueguino, like is the screen flickering and then going back to the console or is it getting stuck or what
[06:31] <DaveLibu> i try to talk between the accounts   i do get the notification in the 2nd account shell   talk request from other account  respond with  talk blah-blah   i do so but both talks just sit there without connecting
[06:31] <naknomik> I've been playing with Xgl and Compiz, and have not been able to figure out how to get the screensaver working. Any ideas?
[06:32] <DaveLibu> i get the message   waiting for invitation    and they just sit there after that
[06:32] <DanaG> Well, I didn't see asoundconf.
[06:32] <abhinay> how to make it play the mp3 files on mouse over ?
[06:32] <DaveLibu> if i type a key    i am dumped from talk
[06:32] <DanaG> Why couldn't they have it say "alsaconf has been depecrated.  Use asoundconf instead"?
[06:33] <willys_fueguino> hmmm.... gives me the "xserver error while loading"... this could help: (WW) VESA: No matching device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:0) found
[06:33] <neoth> gekko nothing... even with the mouse plugged in
[06:33] <DanaG> That doesn't seem like too much to ask.
[06:33] <crimsun> DanaG: That would have been inaccurate; they serve different purposes completely.
[06:33] <DanaG> Okay, well, at least say something to point to the existence of asoundconf.
[06:33] <DanaG> I had no clue.
[06:34] <griffiti93> how do I access the network's nickname registration service?
[06:34] <crimsun> DanaG: System> Preferences> Sound> Set default card   /uses/ asoundconf. You shouldn't have to know of its existence /period/.
[06:34] <gekko`> neoth: show me the output of 'dmseg' again
[06:34] <sovi3t> willys_fueguino, hmmmm, in a console type cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep (EE) and see if anything comes up
[06:35] <aujordanh> everyone have a good experience with beagle?
[06:35] <circasurvive> okay i got ndiswrappers uninstall, and modprobed bcm43xx, and in iwconfig there are no ethX
[06:35] <gekko`> neoth: after you had rebooted with the mouse
[06:35] <farous> circasurvive: did you use the fwcutter for the firmware
[06:35] <DanaG> It should be under "administration" because it's a system thing, not a gnome thing.  Or something like that.
[06:35] <circasurvive> farous: what? i ran the alternative script on the site
[06:35] <DanaG> And I'm using KDE.
[06:35] <Tixer> cansomeonehelpmewithdualbooting?
[06:35] <noom> hell
[06:35] <aujordanh> shouldn't ethX be eth1 or eth2?
[06:36] <Tixer> andyes,I'mlackingaspacebar
[06:36] <sovi3t> circasurvive, so what does iwconfig output
[06:36] <crimsun> DanaG: no, it shouldn't be under Administration at all, since it's a per-user preference thing.
[06:36] <willys_fueguino> sovi3t; i should configure the modem first, otherwise ill be booting every 10 minutes
[06:36] <AAA> Tixer  .com?
[06:36] <farous> circasurvive: do not know what does that script do
[06:36] <Tixer> .comwhat?
[06:36] <willys_fueguino> sovi3t; modem can be configured from bash?
[06:36] <neoth> gekko http://www.joshanddanielswebsite.com/daphreak/dmesg2
[06:36] <aujordanh> Tixer, use underscore
[06:36] <crimsun> DanaG: it does not by any means touch /etc/asound.conf. It only adjusts ~/.asoundrc* if it can.
[06:36] <circasurvive> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDriver%29#head-b3e888974e3f23d9367ca6f2f32edcb3764613a5
[06:36] <DanaG> Oh.  Well, I had no idea that that was an alsa setting rather than an esound thing.
[06:36] <circasurvive> downlaods the firmware
[06:36] <Tixer> I'll use alt 32
[06:37] <sovi3t> willys_fueguino, i cant really help you with the modem thing
[06:37] <damnation> umm, hey again guys, still havent fixed my problem.. now, where i'm stuck is installing ndiswrapper, i type as per the instructions "make uninstall, make, make install" all are unknown commands, and i don't know where to go from there
[06:37] <crimsun> DanaG: asoundrc configuration files are very much preferences :)
[06:37] <UbuntuJulez> !Excel
[06:37] <ubotu> I know nothing about Excel - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:37] <DanaG> aah, well, thank you.
[06:37] <sovi3t> damnation: you need to install gnu make
[06:37] <untung> Hi
[06:37] <Tixer> I keep getting errors in the partition manager
[06:37] <willys_fueguino> sovi3t, thanx anyway! ;-)
[06:37] <DanaG> Now hopefully I will be able to remove the Audigy2 on the fly.
[06:37] <sovi3t> willys_fueguino, np
[06:37] <damnation> sovi3t, then how would i install that? :<
[06:38] <sovi3t> damnation, synaptic
[06:38] <damnation> i have to fix my wifi to get on the internet
[06:38] <Tixer> anyone wanna PM me?
[06:38] <crimsun> DanaG: you'll have to restart the alsa app after you change the default card (each time).
[06:38] <sovi3t> damnation, and search for make
[06:38] <untung> what is the C++ dev tool for ubuntu?
[06:38] <Tixer> ca anyone help with partitioning?
[06:38] <damnation> i'm confused, sovi3t :<
[06:38] <farous> circasurvive: did you put the bcm and ieee modules in your /etc/moudles file by the way check if they are loaded using lsmod
[06:39] <Toma-> I need/would like to bind some keys to my mouse buttons for use in games. eg. bind the X key to mouse 5 and so on. any ideas?
[06:39] <crimsun> DanaG: the only exception is if the audio app uses gconf, in which case changes to the gconfaudiosink take effect immediately.
[06:39] <sovi3t> damnation, you are on ubuntu right
[06:39] <damnation> yes i am :)
[06:39] <circasurvive> farous: no i didnt could you PM me?
[06:39] <damnation> i searched for make and had 1000's of results on descriptions about .. a lot, i didnt know how to narrow the searches down
[06:39] <sovi3t> damnation, synaptic is ubuntus' package manager
[06:39] <farous> circasurvive: no pm in main room you have better chance to get good answer
[06:39] <damnation> i know sovi3t :)
[06:39] <circasurvive> okay
[06:40] <sovi3t> damnation, lol so search for make using synaptic
[06:40] <farous> circasurvive: just lsmod |grep bcm
[06:40] <circasurvive> what am i looking for in lsmod?
[06:40] <farous> see if is loaded
[06:40] <damnation> i just can't install cause i have to fix my wifi, in order to fix my wifi i have to load ndiswrapper, i cannot install ndiswrapper cause my make command is unknown..
[06:40] <circasurvive> yeah it is
[06:40] <gekko`> neoth: I end up with my knowledge
[06:40] <sovi3t> damnation: oh
[06:40] <neoth> gekko uh oh lol
[06:41] <farous> circasurvive: goto /lib/firmware/ dir and see if it is empty or are there files there
[06:41] <circasurvive> farous: yeah a craoload of bcm stuff
[06:41] <sovi3t> damnation: but there should be a copy of ndiswrapper it on your ubuntu cd that you could install instead of doing it from source
[06:42] <circasurvive> like fifteen firmwares
[06:42] <damnation> i'll check
[06:42] <farous> circasurvive: ok

[06:42] <circasurvive> farous: mhm..
[06:42] <DShepherd> s/has/hasnt/
[06:42] <Dana1> oopsie, I guess I have to "safely remove hardware"
[06:42] <[ath0s] > i'm trying to boot with the live cd, and is not working. can someone help?
[06:42] <farous> circasurvive: can not find the alternative script you referred to by the way
[06:43] <circasurvive> go to that website
[06:43] <circasurvive> go to <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:43] <circasurvive> and look at the last code on that section
[06:43] <farous> i am searching there eversince you gave me the link
[06:43] <circasurvive> sudo /usr/share/bcm43xx-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh
[06:43] <circasurvive> that;s the cide
[06:43] <circasurvive> code*
[06:43] <farous> circasurvive: ah ok
[06:44] <damnation> sovi3t: ndiswrapper-utils_1.8-0ubuntu2_i386.deb would this be it?
[06:44] <mistform> where does Aircrack go to?
[06:44] <sovi3t> damnation, probably
[06:44] <neoth> gekko what did you decide?
[06:44] <Tixer> um, aujordanh?
[06:44] <damnation> ok
[06:44] <damnation> ..
[06:44] <DaveLibu> tixer: what are your partitioning problems?
[06:44] <sovi3t> damnation, and you can still use synaptic to install it ;)
[06:44] <Tixer> I'm trying to dual boot
 when I click on install, I go through the usual stuff, till it asks where it wants to put it
 I have a 320gig drive, and just want a tiny ubuntu partition, so when I click to do it automatically...
 I go to resize the drive, and it either tells me I don't have enough room for the installation when creating a 30 gig partition, or, when I use the default, it freezes
 why's it doing that?

[06:45] <Tixer> fine
[06:45] <damnation> how do i do that?
[06:45] <gekko`> neoth: I don't know how to help you further
[06:45] <farous> circasurvive: it might be the incorrect driver for your card. try using the manual method with the fwcutter to get the proper firmware
[06:45] <sovi3t> damnation, yep, just make sure that the cd is listed in the sources
[06:45] <damnation> OH dammit
[06:45] <damnation> thankyou
[06:45] <damnation> im off
[06:46] <circasurvive> farous: i have to go...maybe luck tomorrow...thanks for the help ..peace
[06:46] <damnation> hopefully back in linux
[06:46] <damnation> thanks sovi3t :<
[06:46] <Dana1> Oh..kay.  I did set-default-card, but it didn't change it.
[06:46] <DaveLibu> tixer: what is the default partition?
[06:46] <sovi3t> damnation, lol np
[06:46] <neoth> gekko thanks anyway... you helped me longer that i expected. your awesome. ill just try again tomorrow...
[06:46] <farous> circasurvive: i would try first system > Administration > networking too
[06:46] <Tixer> default is wxp entirely
[06:46] <farous> circasurvive: good luck and peace :)
[06:46] <circasurvive> its not in there
[06:46] <circasurvive> thanks night
[06:47] <gekko`> neoth: no problem, though I couldn't solve your problem
[06:47] <Geoffrey2> anyone in here have any advice on getting a Broadcom internal wireless NIC up and running?  I had it working for a few hours one day, but when I restarted the computer it wasn't working anymore....
[06:47] <DaveLibu> tixer: i wonder when you tried to specify 30 gig  if there was an error and it was reading it as less
[06:48] <DaveLibu> tixer:  i remember some partition managers i had   i had to specify beginnning and end cylinder #'s
[06:48] <sovi3t> Geoffrey2, you probably need to reload the modules that you loaded earlier
[06:49] <Gixbit> Seems like the archive and security server are working this time of night
[06:49] <Tixer> possibly
[06:49] <Tixer> though it failed with kubuntu and ubuntu
[06:49] <DaveLibu> tixer:   i am not that much past newbie in linux   but i have installed dual boots   i would think you would want to keep trying to make a small partition
[06:49] <DaveLibu> 30 gig should be enough
[06:50] <Gixbit> i use about 25gigs for ubuntu
[06:50] <DaveLibu> my main installation is a 15 gig debian
[06:50] <Tixer> at this point, I don't care how big it is
[06:50] <Gixbit> debian is huge
[06:50] <Tixer> I'd prefer smaller, but if it works...
[06:50] <Gixbit> 14 discs
[06:50] <cowmilk2> how can i tell whether my usb ports are version 1 or version 2?
[06:50] <Gixbit> 2 dvd's
[06:50] <clever> ive recently upgraded to ubuntu dapper and now my pcmcia network card isnt working
[06:50] <DaveLibu> well   you could always try a bit more  60 gig or something
[06:50] <Gixbit> anyway
[06:50] <Gixbit> !ati
[06:50] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:51] <Tixer> or use automatix
[06:51] <sovi3t> clever, what type of card
[06:51] <clever> 3com lan card
[06:51] <clever> pcmcia
[06:51] <clever> for 10base-t and coax
[06:51] <clever> it was working normaly on breezy badger
[06:52] <kimchi330> hi i was wondering if someone could give me some help... i tried installing easyubuntu, but it gave me the error message "Could not apply changes. Fix broken packages first." does anyone know a solution to this problem??
[06:52] <arnducky> That's -a-some-a-SPICY KIMCHI!
[06:52] <sovi3t> clever, you'll probably need to reinstall the drivers
[06:52] <clever> how?
[06:52] <Tixer> anyways,does anyone have any reccomendations?
