[20:34] <Na-Fiann> Hi, I have a sweex 6-in-1 usb cardreader. If I connect it to the pc in windows, a light will go on signalling that it has power and another one if a card is inserted. If I connect it under ubuntu however, nothing happens... any ideas

[20:34] <sander_m> Question: Why is the "Module" section in my xorg.conf empty? I'm used to seeing all kinds of things in there. DRI, GLX, etcetera. Is this normal under 7.10?

I tried to use the /etc/skel directory but then instead of creating the Documents and Templated and so
[20:38] <sloloem>  on directories in $HOME when the user first logged in it made them on the Desktop.  Where are the default desktop, applications, panel setup stored?
[20:38] <genii> Itaku: No, thats all done server side
[20:38] <Jack_Sparrow> [[thufir]], At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[20:38] <jimcooncat> [[thufir]]: what Jack_Sparrow said (thanks Jack)

[20:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry I keep popping in and out
[20:43] <minimec> sander_m: xorg takes the opensource driver by default. If you activate the restricted driver, you get your entry in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[20:43] <bastid_raZor> sander_m; check your xorg logs in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[20:43] <sander_m> minimec: When I activated te restricted driver, all I got was a blank screen. I've now been trying for four days to get the latest ATO driver working
[20:44] <cyzie> when we do ctrl + alt + f1, f2 and until f6 , we should get a console but not anymore. any idea where to start looking ?
[20:44] <sander_m> bastid_raZor: Does that logfile only contain the messages from the latest Xorg start (like bootlog) or does it contain all previous Xorg starts as well?
[20:44] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, after activating the restricted driver...  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:45] <[[thufir]]> before the "--" add:  no apci acpi=off or:  no apic acpi=off ?  spellink errur?
[20:45] <minimec> sander_m: Do you use envy? What is your experience with envy? - Envy didn't like my ati 9600 mobile ...
[20:45] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, MAny people dotn get their monitors setup as well as their video card
[20:45] <sander_m> minimec: I've been warned not to use Envy
[20:45] <minimec> sander_m: Good advice!
[20:45] <bastid_raZor> sander_m; there more than just one log in /var/log go to that directory and you'll see more than one log of Xorg ... and that Xorg file i posted is the most recent.
[20:46] <robeph> how can I install sox + mp3 decode/encode support?
[20:46] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow: I've managed to load the ATI driver from their website (lsmod says it's there) but fglrxinfo still says I use the MESA library for 3D
[20:46] <robeph> my gentoo box has it but doesn't seem to have mp3 s'port in ubuntu
[20:47] <richard> I have a question reguarding LAMP, what would best way to organize user rights, could i create a group for /var/www that webusers get access too then add them to the group ?
[20:47] <sander_m> bastid_raZor: I understand, but does that log get rotated every Xorg restart or just every week, like most logfiles?
[20:47] <_Scooter_> robeph: for commandline playback? xmms should already be installed.
[20:47] <bastid_raZor> sander_m; every restart
 before the "--" add:  no apci acpi=off or:  no apic acpi=off ?  spellink errur?  noapic acpi=off
[20:48] <^u^> what is the name of the app that takes a screenshot of the desktop pls
[20:48] <Itaku> is it possible to download the source code of a php page?
[20:49] <Jack_Sparrow> ^u^, gnome-screenshot --interactive
[20:49] <robeph> _Scooter_: no sox,   for converting audio files / modifying,  I need command line support to up the gain on mp3s for a PBX IVR
[20:49] <^u^> thnx Jack_Sparrow
[20:49] <robeph> don't care to hear them via cmd line. :p
[20:49] <Tybalt> I installed ubuntu with the "Alternate CD" because the GUI version wouldn't work, but on the website it says you get a nice looking GNOME based desktop and things.  It starts me out in command prompt, my question is, how do i get from this command prompt to the desktop, or did I install the wrong version of ubuntu to get this desktop software?
[20:49] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[20:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Tybalt, Did you install server and NOT the alternate
[20:49] <_Scooter_> robeph: well, apt-get install sox mpg321
[20:50] <crackintosh> I am trying to tar a directory while excluding one of the folders included in it. I am also trying to preserve permissions, gzip and verbose. However I cannot get this command to work! tar -cf site_backup_03_14_08.tar.gz ../mywebsite.com/ --exclude=/etc/ -z -v -p
[20:50] <Tybalt> I'll pretty sure I installed desktop alternate.
[20:50] <_Scooter_> robeph: sorry, sudo apt-get install sox mpg321
[20:50] <sander_m> bastid_raZor: Thanks. All: Well, my Xorg log shows no errors. fglrx loads fine. All I get are a few warnings from AIGLX: 3D driver claims not to support XXX.
[20:50] <richard> if i want to add /var/www to the group webusers, what could i type? :(.. i know its chown something and chmod
[20:50] <minimec> sander_m: Do you have 'Driver "fglrx"' in your 'Section "Device"' in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Tybalt, You can get there from cli with sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[20:50] <CVD-PR> apt-get or aptitude?
[20:50] <c0da> hey guys, where is ".profile"????
[20:50] <sander_m> minimec: See ^^^. Driver loads. Just not 3D
[20:50] <bastid_raZor> sander_m; another useful logfile is in ~/.xsessions-errors
[20:51] <sander_m> bastid_raZor: Thanks
[20:51] <_Scooter_> richard: chgrp -R webusers /var/www  (that will change /var/www and everything, recursively in /var/www, to the webusers group only)
[20:51] <c0da> where is .profile?
[20:51] <AboSamoor> i want to create a new keyboard  layout how can i do that ?
[20:51] <_Scooter_> c0da: ~/
[20:51] <jimcooncat> c0da: it's in there, but because it starts with a dot it's hidden
[20:51] <c0da> ok thanks
[20:51] <crackintosh> richard:  doesnt ubuntu use www-data as the user/group for apache?
[20:52] <nah> cyzie: type when you are in your cli type startx so that you can come back to your graphical interface
[20:52] <louish> Hi all.  I'm running 7.10 and I'm trying to get some output from a traceroute command.  All that show's up is the 1st and 15th (end) hops.  I have a windows box and a tracert show's every hop?   And I missing a switch or something?
[20:52] <richard> _Scooter_: is this a wise idea to do this? my first apache install
[20:52] <richard> crackintosh: my first apache install..
[20:52] <sander_m> bastid_raZor: Nothing useful in there. Just some GTK errors.
[20:52] <_Scooter_> richard: is it personal or production?
[20:52] <richard> crackintosh: could i just add my user to www-data ?
[20:52] <richard> _Scooter_: personal for now
[20:53] <richard> _Scooter_: but i want it done properly :D
[20:53] <bastid_raZor> sander_m; right it shows errors if you have any.. and i assume you have the same Gtk+ Warnings i have.. setuid
[20:53] <cyzie> nah, what do you mean ?
[20:53] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, Did you ever do this   sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[20:53] <_Scooter_> richard: well you could either addusers to the www-data or make the new webusers group and do that - honestly, webusers is probably the best way to go - you'll learn the system better that way :)
[20:54] <sander_m> bastid_raZor: Yes. That's what's in there
[20:54] <richard> p
[20:54] <richard> p
[20:54] <richard> _Scooter_: thanks
[20:54] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow: Not manually. When I first installed the system I did click on the restricted drivers popup and enabled the proprietary driver. I imagine that may have run that command in the background
[20:55] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, fglrxinfo still shows mesa
[20:55] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, Please verify which video card?
[20:56] <Ballena> How do I unmount a cd in Ubuntu? The command "unmount" does not exist...
[20:56] <Starnestommy> Ballena: use umount
[20:56] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow:  ATI X1300 Pro (256 Mb)
[20:56] <aldaek> two questions. 7.10 in use. when i set wired connection to use static ip, all settings correct, its not saving it... whats going on on that side... the other. on bootup/shutdown, how do i see the detection/actions routines? simply turning off the bootloader pic/progress screen does not give all info
[20:56] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow:  Yes, it still shows Mesa
[20:56] <xybre> I'm having a real problem with locales, I've been googling for a while and I tried to fix it months ago, and I still can't get it to work.
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m,  I dont have much time but this looks like what you need  to do...  sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx   ...  apt-get install xserver-xgl  #not needed for aiglx but is for fglrx in Ubuntu followed by... sudo depmod -a
[20:57] <Ballena> Starnestommy: aha I must have miss red on the tut :)
[20:57] <xybre> When I do locales -a, it only shows C and POSIX and no other locales available
[20:57] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow:  Does that complement or replace the ATI drivers I installed from ATI's website?
[20:57] <xybre> How can I install the en_US.utf8 locale?
[20:58] <khoa> khoa day
[20:58] <khoa> ji the khong biet nua
[20:58] <aldaek> oh... a reboot is required for manual configuration... lovely
[20:58] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow:  Both were already installed. ANd I did the depmod -a trick already today with no effect
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, that should not change the driver you have
[20:59] <sander_m> I've also make the symlink in /usr/X1R6/lib/modules/dri/ to the driver
[20:59] <khoa> no nhieu
[20:59] <CVD-PR> xchat command to view all my posts
[20:59] <khoa> khong biet lam ji nua
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, you loged out and back after that right...
[21:00] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow: I take no chances. I reboot everytime
[21:00] <Starnestommy> CVD-PR: I don't think there is one
[21:00] <Jack_Sparrow> sander_m, Ok.. I need to run.. wish you luck
[21:00] <richard> _Scooter_: is this correct to give read, write, execute for the whole group recursivly? chmod -R g+rwx ?
[21:00] <sander_m> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks :-/
[21:01] <kharloss> hi there. there is a way to  remove software  installed today ? something to restore to a previous state ( without any backup ofcourse - something like ... apt-get autoclean& remove ... I`m a linux noob  so sorry for my stupi question but i`m just asking if there is any way doing this ...
[21:01] <CVD-PR> Starnestommy,  one day someone show me a command that do it but i forgat
[21:01] <aldaek> while you guys are on the subject for graphics... wheres the file to edit to remove resolutions higher than 1024x768/?
[21:01] <foldart> CVD-PR: /lastlog CVD-PR
[21:01] <CVD-PR> something la /mylogs etc..
[21:01] <nah> cyzie: why you try ctrl-alt F2->F6 it's because you have problem with your mouse or your  graphic card or else, so when you're in the console you type startx so that you can reboot your X layer in linux
[21:02] <Ward1983> if i want to install grub on only one partition, and i click advanced to do that at the isntallation, what is the correct syntax to tell on what disk and partition i want grub? (sdc in my case)
[21:02] <kharloss> if vrms  can do this  i hope there is any way to do my task ..
[21:02] <Ward1983> i did this allready once, but i forgot the syntax... :(
[21:02] <CVD-PR> foldart,  nothing happend with thatn command
[21:03] <foldart> CVD-PR: hm, might not work in xchat then (I use irssi)
[21:03] <CVD-PR> o ok
[21:03] <xybre> I keep getting errors like "locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory" because, well, it's right, there are no locale directories except C and POSIX.
[21:04] <AboSamoor> can anyone help me, in the steps in creating a new keyboard layout ?

[21:06] <richard> okey... now i have problem: I am member of group webusers, I changed the /var/www to group webusers with: "chgrp -R webusers /var/www" I chmod "chmod -R /var/www g+rwx".. why can't i create directories as my user now, I added my user too webusers
[21:07] <Starnestommy> richard: you may need to log out then back in
[21:07] <richard> hrm..
[21:07] <_polto_> hi all
[21:07] <_Scooter_> richard: you have to remember to differentiate between files and directories, that's the key problem to most new users - you don't want to execute a text file, for instance :)
[21:08] <richard> _Scooter_: huh?
[21:08] <_Scooter_> richard: of course, that's what rm is for ;)
[21:08] <AboSamoor> CVD-PR, i want to create new layout so i can add it using  system -> preferences->layout--> add
[21:08] <richard> _Scooter_: i dont want execute on it all?
[21:08] <PBJMan> Hey, can anyone help me? I've been having some troubles running screenlets-manager- the error is here: http://pastebin.com/d81c8747 . I've googled and all, tried it all, nothing worked. Any ideas?
[21:08] <_Scooter_> richard: only on directories.
[21:08] <_polto_> who is in charge of liblivemedia ? it was not updated on ubuntu for a while. I posted a question on Launchpad, but did not have a replay.
[21:08] <richard> _Scooter_: ugh, i have to handpick that?
[21:09] <Daisuke_Ido> sorry
[21:09] <_Scooter_> richard: the command i gave you will take care of it :)  if you read the manpage for 'find', it will tell you how to select only files
[21:09] <richard> _Scooter_: oh ok
[21:09] <Ward1983> hallo
[21:09] <CVD-PR> AboSamoor,  yes
[21:09] <Ward1983> if i want to install grub on only one partition, and i click advanced to do that at the isntallation, what is the correct syntax to tell on what disk and partition i want grub? (sdc in my case)

[21:10] <justatheory> Can anyone tell me how to disable the prompt interface when I `apt-get install slapd`?
[21:10] <Bittarman> What would be the best way to add AMD64 kernel to my boot menu.
[21:10] <justatheory> I see a call to `db_get slapd/no_configuration` in slapd.preinst, but how no idea how to set it to "true"
[21:10] <justatheory> *have* no idea
[21:10] <AboSamoor> CVD-PR, what yes ?
[21:10] <richard> _Scooter_: heh... question, is there a way to update the permissions without logging in and out ?
[21:11] <Vermux> how do I manually upgrade to kubuntu 7.10? I cant do that through adept_manager
[21:11] <nicolah> Guys I'd like to use ascii passphrase with iwconfig, is it possible ?
[21:11] <tritium> !upgrade | Vermux
[21:11] <ubotu> Vermux: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[21:11] <PBJMan> No one knows which libraries I'm missing? :S
[21:11] <PBJMan> Or what i'm doing wrong
[21:11] <_Scooter_> richard: good question. no, it's a security issue. but you CAN set users default permissions for when they create files/dirs.
[21:12] <CVD-PR> AboSamoor,  yes that you are correct
[21:12] <richard> _Scooter_: uh.. default permission? o.O
[21:12] <Ayabara> I'm trying to remove the kde-apps I have installed. How can I check which ones remain? Some package I can check the dependency on maybe?
[21:13] <nicolah> "you can also enter the key as an SCII string by using the s: prefix, Passphrase is currently not suppoted" what's the difference between passphrase and ascii key ?
[21:13] <CVD-PR> away to know what keyboard type i have 101,-104 105?
[21:13] <CVD-PR> with counting
[21:13] <CVD-PR> without
[21:13] <richard> _Scooter_: is it chmod g+s ?
[21:13] <slenentine> nicolah: sudo chmod 700 /sbin/iwconfig    then you'll have to launch it with sudo
[21:14] <nicolah> slenentine: I launch it with sudo even now, it's not a problem
[21:14] <CVD-PR> any way to know why i cant go suspende?
[21:14] <slenentine> nicolah: well then it's password protected. so what's your aim?
[21:15] <baddog144> hi all, i type: "sudo cp boost /usr/local/include/boost" but it just says: "omitting directory: boost" and it doesn't work... why? :S

[21:20] <xb3rt> can someone help me with a lag problem my ubuntu windows are having when they maximize and minimize
[21:21] <PBJMan> xb3rt: Are you running compiz?
[21:21] <todd_> xb3rt, are you using compiz?
[21:21] <Ballena> You can eject a Cd-rom with "eject /dev/cdrom" But is there a command that closes the CD-again?
[21:21] <Ward1983> how to isntall without grub?
[21:21] <xb3rt> PBJMan: todd_: yes
[21:21] <todd_> Ward1983, do you have another boot loader?
[21:22] <johanna> Hi. I have a trouble with Hardy Alfa. I've upgraded yesterday to the alfa hardy version and everything was going just fine 'till tomorrow morning. I've just booted ubuntu, I logged in on GDM and when tries to show me the gnome desktop just frizzes.
[21:22] <Ward1983> todd_ well i plan on doing grub-install /dev/sdc and then add grub in the vista bootloader
[21:23] <ar0nic> hi guys
[21:23] <Ward1983> todd_ one can also do that in the ubuntu setup, its clicking advanced in some screen, and then one needs to fill in what partition and disk to install grub on, only i dunno the syntax for that...
[21:23] <grettin> Hi, can someone help me setup wpa encryption on my laptop please? got it working unencrypted so i know it works just need a little help please.
[21:23] <baddog144> what is the linux equivalent of a Windows Enviroment variable?
[21:23] <xb3rt> PBJMan: todd_: what do you recommend
[21:23] <theaaghaaz> I'm having an error installing Rhythmbox. I'm compiling it from the development source, and I've got it "built", and I see it in my "Applications" drop-down menu. However, whenever I click the Rhythmbox icon, it shows a "Starting Rhthymbox Music Player" sign on the bottom task bar thing, but the sign just disappears after that. I tried starting it with the terminal, but it gave me this error: rhythmbox: error while loading shared
[21:23] <nicolah> iwconfig isn't suitable for WPA encryption, isn't it ?
[21:24] <PBJMan> xb3rt: Try typing glxinfo in a terminal, and see if it lags within the next 10 seconds or so
[21:24] <slenentine> Ballena: try     eject -t /dev/cdrom
[21:24] <johanna> I'm on a tty right now using irssi. I don't know if it's useful but yesterday some packages like gnome-desktop-enviroment and gnome-keyring-manager were autoremoved. I tried to reinstall them again but the keyring manager was "deprecated".
[21:24] <Jowi> PBJMan, running feisty myself, I installed it from 3rd party repo http://compiz.org/Desktop_Screenlets (available for gutsy as well on that page). is that the version you are using?
[21:24] <Ward1983> theaaghaaz most likely its missing shared files, or doesnt find them, dunno how to solve, sorry
[21:24] <todd_> xb3rt: how much video memory?
[21:24] <^u^> theaaghaaz, why not install it from the repos?
[21:24] <ar0nic> ive had a load of problems, im a bit of a novice noob, i google and i do my homework, ive had some crazy issues with my video playback on my lappy with kubuntu..after a few formats and reinstalls ive decided to go with ubuntu and start here, first things first i need to properly get my vid card driver installed, although it recognizes my card as what it is that doesnt nessicarly mean that the drivers are installed and its working properly
[21:24] <Ward1983> todd_ did you read my replys?
[21:25] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: Because I'm hip. :P
[21:25] <PBJMan> Jowi: It might be- I used apt-get to install it... I just uninstalled it, so i'll try installing that.
[21:25] <xb3rt> todd_: how do i check, also i had ubuntu gutsy on this comp and it ran smooth as could be, then i reinstalled it and now its all studdery acting
[21:25] <todd_> Ward1983:  so do you just want to install GRUB to the partition of your choice, or not at all?
[21:25] <maxaki> I've got some problems with wine... I got some error messages when i open an .exe file
[21:25] <^u^> theaaghaaz, didn't know it was hip to do it the hard way - apologies :)
[21:25] <Jowi> PBJMan, I found the repo listed on that page to be quite stable.
[21:26] <ar0nic> my problem in kubuntu was video playback, i had all proper codecs installed and players as well and only got sound
[21:26] <ar0nic> no vid playback
[21:26] <Ward1983> todd_ the goals is indeed just the partition that i choose (the one with ubuntu on it)
[21:26] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: Ok, the real reason is that I want the unstable version.
[21:26] <Jowi> PBJMan, 0.0.10-3 is the version I have installed.
[21:26] <^u^> theaaghaaz, prob some dependency issue
[21:26] <Zyonx> hola, necesito k alguien me solucione un problema
[21:26] <ar0nic> i just booted ubuntu and am installing the updates that popped up
[21:27] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: Huh. Okay.
[21:27] <CVD-PR> why the hell wine is never updated?
[21:27] <ar0nic> then where should i go from there...the restricted packages?
[21:27] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: Am I allowed to repost my question?
[21:27] <xb3rt> todd_: any ideas?
[21:27] <Black_Magic> can someone tell me how to make a Bootable Grub CD?
[21:27] <todd_> when I installed, I chose to install to the root partition, which for me was (hd0,0).  First partition on first hard drive.
[21:27] <^u^> theaaghaaz, that's the issue with source installs - dependencies aren't automatically met
[21:27] <^u^> theaaghaaz, sure
[21:27] <ar0nic> Black_Magic download the .iso from their website, use whatever burner you'd like and burn the image
[21:28] <theaaghaaz> I'm having an error installing Rhythmbox. I'm compiling it from the development source, and I've got it "built", and I see it in my "Applications" drop-down menu. However, whenever I click the Rhythmbox icon, it shows a "Starting Rhthymbox Music Player" sign on the bottom task bar thing, but the sign just disappears after that. I tried starting it with the terminal, but it gave me this error: rhythmbox: error while loading shared
[21:28] <todd_> Ward1983: when I installed, I chose to install to the root partition, which for me was (hd0,0).  First partition on first hard drive.
[21:28] <Ward1983> todd_ but does a fakeraid raid0 array count as 2 or 1 drives? :s
[21:28] <theaaghaaz> ^u^: I know, source installing sometimes gives me a headache.
[21:28] <Black_Magic> grub website...?
[21:28] <Ward1983> todd_ vista is installed on a partition on the fakeraid raid0 array
[21:28] <Obinooobie> I want to install wine, but i'm not very good at this, could anyone give me some guiding or a guide?
[21:28] <PBJMan> Jowi: I actually think I downloaded the package from that site using the download link, not with apt-get...
[21:29] <^u^> theaaghaaz, r/box new might use a later gtk or alsa or...
[21:29] <Jowi> PBJMan, use the apt repo. that makes sure you get all the dependencies installed.
[21:29] <PBJMan> Obinooobie: in a terminal, "type sudo apt-get install wine"  (Without the "")
[21:29] <todd_> Ward1983:  I'm sorry, I don't know about raid arrays...
[21:29] <theaaghaaz> ^u^, Maybe I should download a snapshot of the svn for both GTK and ALSA?
[21:29] <ar0nic> if anyone feels like stroking their expertise on a tough issue plz let me know
[21:30] <PBJMan> Jowi, I tried, but it looks as though the repository is offline or something- Failed to fetch http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/screenlets/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found
[21:30] <ar0nic> thanks for all help guys
[21:30] <ar0nic> please PM tho
[21:30] <ar0nic> as this channel is moving much fast.
[21:30] <Ward1983> todd_ is it for sure that sdc is (hd2,1)? (that drive only has one partition)
[21:30] <^u^> theaaghaaz, they were just guesses - could be lots of other things as well - who knows
[21:30] <ar0nic> ive already googled to death and tried all options out there that i could figure out
[21:30] <Ward1983> todd_ if it is sure then i know enough :)
[21:31] <Jowi> PBJMan, you seem to be right. I get the same error. :-/
[21:31] <PBJMan> Jowi: :S Fail...
[21:31] <PBJMan> >.<
[21:31] <maxaki> useradd: unable to lock password file
[21:32] <grettin> could someone point me to or paste a wpa_supplicant.conf using an atheros card please
[21:32] <Black_Magic> ar0nic, What .iso..
[21:32] <theaaghaaz> I'm having an error installing Rhythmbox. I'm compiling it from the development source, and I've got it "built", and I see it in my "Applications" drop-down menu. However, whenever I click the Rhythmbox icon, it shows a "Starting Rhthymbox Music Player" sign on the bottom task bar thing, but the sign just disappears after that. I tried starting it with the terminal, but it gave me this error: rhythmbox: error while loading shared
[21:32] <Starnestommy> theaaghaaz: what was the error?
[21:33] <theaaghaaz> Starnestommy, rhythmbox: error while loading shared libraries: librhythmbox-core.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[21:33] <Starnestommy> theaaghaaz: what happens when you run "locate librhythmbox-core.so.0" ?
[21:33] <PBJMan> Jowi: I'm not too familiar with linux, but I'm getting around- there's no way around using his site for this, is there? Well, for a repo- there's no backups...?
[21:34] <todd_> Ward1983, the numbering starts with 0, so it sounds like in your case, hd2,1 would be third hard drive, second partition
[21:34] <rathel> How do I turn off Snapping to the screen edges?
[21:34] <theaaghaaz> Starnestommy: Nothing.
[21:34] <Jowi> PBJMan, gutsy?
[21:34] <Starnestommy> theaaghaaz: does the version in the repositories work?
[21:34] <Ward1983> todd_ so (hd2.0) should be sdc, right?
[21:34] <Obinooobie> PBJMan: When i write type "sudo apt-get install wine" it say
[21:35] <Obinooobie> "sudo is hashed (/usr/bin/sudo)
[21:35] <Obinooobie> apt-get is /usr/bin/apt-get
[21:35] <theaaghaaz> Starnestommy: Yes.
[21:35] <Obinooobie> install is /usr/bin/install
[21:35] <Obinooobie> bash: type: wine: could not be found"
[21:35] <Obinooobie> Roughly translated from swedish

[21:35] <Freezeil> I installed Ubuntu for the first time today, and I was told to install EasyBCD to have a normal dual-boot (between Ubuntu and Vista). However, I ran into a problem even google can't solve...
[21:35] <akan01n> hi, when i do /etc/init.d/networking restart, if i modifiy anything using the command 'route' the information is restored, where do i change it?
[21:35] <Freezeil> Cannot load from harddisk.
[21:35] <Freezeil> Insert Systemdisk and press any key.
[21:35] <armenb> how does a compiler decide what symbols to export and which not to?
[21:35] <PBJMan> Jowi: Yes.
[21:35] <Freezeil> What should I do?
[21:35] <armenb> i didn't explicitly say, and "nm" is showing "T" and "t" by several functions
[21:35] <Jowi> PBJMan, I haven't tried this version. might work for you: http://www.getdeb.net/app/Screenlets
[21:35] <PBJMan> Obinooobie: Next time, use www.pastebin.com
[21:36] <PBJMan> Jowi: Alright, i'll try.
[21:36] <armenb> darnit.
[21:36] <armenb> wrong channel.
[21:36] <armenb> sorry
[21:36] <Ward1983> Freezeil normally it sohuld be enough to install ubuntu, normally grub takes care of this (im not entirely sure as i got raid so i cant use grub)
[21:36] <Ward1983> but thats the way its with XP
[21:36] <Freezeil> Aye
[21:36] <Freezeil> With Vista I had to install EasyBCD
[21:37] <Freezeil> And it still won't load :(
[21:37] <aldaek> is there a way to disable bootup splash screen and see what the computer is doing on bootup? not just erros, but all processes it does?
[21:37] <rathel> lol How do I turn off Snapping to the screen edges?
[21:37] <slenentine> Freezeil: check out ntfsfix
[21:37] <Starnestommy> aldaek: change the boot options for "quiet splash" in /boot/grub/menu.lst to "nosplash"
[21:37] <Obinooobie> PBJMan: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59622/
[21:38] <Ward1983> Freezeil do you have RAID?
[21:38] <Itaku> how do i connect to a mysql server?
[21:38] <aldaek> will that show everything, not just errors, right?
[21:38] <proprietarysucks> anyone in here know why ubuntu 7.10 64-bit cannot install over pxe?
[21:38] <Freezeil> Nope, no raid
[21:38] <Freezeil> slenentine: what does ntfsfix does?
[21:38] <Starnestommy> aldaek: anything that shows output
[21:38] <Freezeil> Will it ruin my vista? :)
[21:38] <m3gach33zy> Hello ubuntu guys I need some help installing ubuntu on my 64 bit pc that has to use a dvi converter.  The problem is that i'm trying to install ubuntu and I can select install ubuntu on the pc.  Afterwards the screen flashes something really fast and then no more video... but I can hear the disc running and trying to install nevertheless...
[21:38] <Ward1983> Freezeil then it should be sufficient to just install ubuntu after vista, on another disk and/or partition
[21:38] <slenentine> no
[21:39] <Freezeil> Ward1983, I did
[21:39] <Trubadurix> hiho
[21:39] <PBJMan> Obinooobie: I don't know, honestly- if you can't find the answer here, try the forums... I've never seen that before.
[21:39] <Ward1983> Freezeil then what did you do with EasyBCD?
[21:40] <slenentine> Freezeil: read http://ubuntu-utah.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=398122  i used it once in that situation and it worked
[21:40] <m3gach33zy> Does anyone know how I can get video while using a dvi converter?
[21:40] <Obinooobie> ah, too bad..
[21:40] <Obinooobie> well, ill try the forums
[21:40] <PBJMan> Jowi: Ah, it works! Thanks :D
[21:40] <Freezeil> Ward1983: I used it to get to the bootload page-thingy
[21:40] <SubOne> well i just installed the ati video drives and then compiz wasnt running so i changed it to on in the xorg.conf and not compiz is running but it is really really slow, any ideas what i can try?
[21:41] <Trubadurix> anyone know how i make my menuline in terminal window to hide permernent? if i press dont show it will be showen next time i open a terminal and i cant edit it in the terminal profil any know?
[21:41] <Ward1983> Freezeil, normally grub is the only bootloader you need (unless you got fakeraid like me, then an easy way out can be the vista bootloader)
[21:41] <Freezeil> slenentine: thanks, will follow it right away with the livecd
[21:42] <slenentine> np
[21:42] <Ward1983> Freezeil maybe the easyest to try is jsut reinstall on the same location as the previous ubuntu installation, that usualle fixes grub too
[21:42] <JimpsEd> mv -f still exceptions when there are directories how can I force overwrite even for dirs?
[21:42] <Freezeil> Ward1983, I did...
[21:42] <proprietarysucks> getting really tiring installing ubuntu 7.10 64-bit from cd
[21:42] <proprietarysucks> anyone in here know why ubuntu 7.10 64-bit cannot install over pxe?
[21:42] <Ward1983> Freezeil ah ok try the link, i didnt notice untill now
[21:43] <theaaghaaz> I'm having an error installing Rhythmbox. I'm compiling it from the development source, and I've got it "built", and I see it in my "Applications" drop-down menu. However, whenever I click the Rhythmbox icon, it shows a "Starting Rhthymbox Music Player" sign on the bottom task bar thing, but the sign just disappears after that. I tried starting it with the terminal, but it gave me this error: rhythmbox: error while loading shared
[21:43] <slenentine> Freezeil: ntfsprogs is in the repos, so you shouldn't even have to compile it
[21:44] <Freezeil> excellent, the easier, the better
[21:45] <xb3rt> so in regards to my ubuntu gutsy window lag problem with compiz is their a solution
[21:45] <Freezeil> See you soon, I hope :)

[21:56] <sander_m> Jowi: ATI X1300. I've been trying for four days to get it working now. fglrxinfo keeps saying "Mesa" for the 3D driver.
[21:56] <xb3rt> glxgears logged me out
[21:56] <Banji_dk1> plese help-me i desesperated
[21:56] <Jowi> sander_m, you're probably not using the correct driver for your card.
[21:57] <Jowi> !ati | sander_m
[21:57] <ubotu> sander_m: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[21:57] <Dex-Freudii> if I change a partition size will its UUID change also?
[21:57] <Banji_dk1> i nedd the linux in my laptop and i can't install
[21:57] <^u^> Banji_dk1, did you do the md5 check on the disks?
[21:57] <minimec> larryzli: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=579906
[21:57] <sander_m> Jowi: Did that. Tried that. The binary driver loads fine. It just doesn't give me 3D
[21:58] <Dex-Freudii> Banji_dk1: why can't you install it? what's the error message?
[21:58] <sander_m> Jowi: Want to see my Xorg log?
[21:58] <larryzli> minimec: ive already tried those
[21:58] <m3gach33zy> can someone.. anyone help me install ubuntu on my desktop?
[21:58] <Dex-Freudii> m3gach33zy: yep
[21:58] <m3gach33zy> Dex-Freudii: okay well i'm having a problem with video
[21:58] <Jowi> sander_m, won't help me I'm afraid. I have no experience with that card and drivers
[21:58] <Banji_dk1> [Dex-Freudii]: don´t have error message, the installation is crash when the screen say UBUNTU and have one bar
[21:58] <minimec> larryzli: So I can't help you ... sorry
[21:59] <akan01n> hi, Ubuntu 7.10 is gutsy, right?
[21:59] <Dex-Freudii> Banji_dk1: which hardware do you have? which ubuntu version?
[21:59] <sander_m> Jowi: Okay, but do you know DRI?
[21:59] <larryzli> Question: how do I upgrade my ALSA drivers?
[21:59] <Dex-Freudii> m3gach33zy: what problem?
[21:59] <tekteen> akan01n: that is the newest
[21:59] <m3gach33zy> Dex-Freudii: i can hit enter on the start or install ubuntu and then it says loading kernel 100% then after that the video cuts off
[21:59] <akan01n> tekteen: ok
[21:59] <m3gach33zy> Dex-Freudii: the pc is still running and i can hear that the disc is running
[22:00] <Jowi> sander_m, for intel and via chipsets I can help. not for ati.  I didn't know DRI was closely tied to the driver. Thanks anyway.

I was just hopin for help if you fancy lookin at http://ubuntuforums.org/showth
[22:22] <Ward1983> amenado, 4, the first 2 in fakeraid raid0 for vista, so i installed grub only on hd2,0
[22:22] <lordleemo> m3gach33zy: http://appdb.winehq.org/  there you go m8
[22:22] <m3gach33zy> lordleemo: yeah i'm checking it out now thanks
[22:23] <Slart> grettin: most people don't answer if they don't know.. it's just the way it is.. don't take it personally
[22:23] <Ward1983> amenado, now i can choose in the vista bootloader between vista and ubuntu, and if chosen for ubuntu grub loads, but it cant boot apperantly
[22:23] <fr33d0m> tekteen.. he wants to know how to make flash objects not just view them and as far as ive seen..  adobe hasnt made a nix version
[22:23] <madman91> good day to everyone
[22:23] <tekteen> fr33d0m: nm
[22:23] <Ward1983> amenado, so ubuntu is on the third disk, to make it short :)

[22:24] <Ward1983> Itaku, qdobe flash...
[22:24] <m3gach33zy> Does anyone know how long resizing a partition should take.... I'm installing ubuntu on my desktop right now and the most i can hear right now is that the cd is running and the display says please wait resizing partition and its at 0% for the past like 15 minutes
[22:24] <madman91> IS there a way to read why a linux box crashed? Or froze (due to heavy processes) for that matter?
[22:24] <fr33d0m> itaku...  use adobe flash but you will have to run it with wine or on a osx or winblows box
[22:24] <Slart> madman91: well.. there are logs.. syslogs.. kernel logs.. look in /var/log
[22:25] <Itaku> whats one for linux?
[22:25] <Imagineer66> Just joining but I had a similar question about adobe reader
[22:25] <amenado> Ward1983-> i dont know of how ntldr allows ubuntu to boot..and am not sure fake raid is supported at boot time
[22:25] <Imagineer66> what about using Automatix2 for ubuntu
[22:25] <Ward1983> Itaku, this is the windows one: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/ qdobe doesnt provide a linux version
[22:25] <Slart> Imagineer66: looking for a linux alternative to adobe reader?
[22:26] <Flannel> Imagineer66: don't use Automatix.
[22:26] <Imagineer66> oh, sorry, wrong program
[22:26] <Slart> !automatix
[22:26] <ubotu> automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe »
[22:26] <Itaku> 699 DOLLARS?
[22:26] <Ward1983> amenado, i allready did this once, fakeraid is not supported, but the vista bootloader fixes that
[22:26] <Itaku> screw that...
[22:26] <Imagineer66> Why not Automatix?
[22:26] <Ongaku> how do I uninstall atk-1.9.1...i compiled it yesterday to get something else to work and now its freaking out all my programs
[22:26] <Slart> Imagineer66: it has been known to break things.. break them so you have to reinstall ubuntu even
[22:26] <Flannel> Imagineer66: because it breaks systems
[22:26] <Ward1983> amenado, it happens like this: PC starts, vista bootloader shows, 2 options, vista and ubuntu, if i select ubuntu then grub starts
[22:26] <|DuReX|> is it possible to update to newer kernel version in ubuntu ? need some drivers from 2.6.23
[22:27] <madman91> Slart: Hm... thanks :) but any idea how I can see which process causes very high cpu useage (before hanging the computer)
[22:27] <amenado> Ward1983-> where is grub pointed? if grub starts can you interrupt it?
[22:27] <Ongaku> i compiled it, i just need to know how to uninstall it now
[22:27] <fr33d0m> you can update your kernel through the repos
[22:27] <Slart> madman91: hmm... if it isn't in the logs.. then I don't think so
[22:27] <Imagineer66> hmmm.. I guess I'll find out.  Unfortunately, I installed Automatix this afternoon.
[22:27] <|DuReX|> fr33d0m: but latest in repo is 2.6.22-11 ..
[22:27] <Slart> Imagineer66: you have my sympathy..
[22:28] <oXyG3N> #linuxac
[22:28] <Itaku> whats a program to make flash objects?????????????? THAT IS FREE...
[22:28] <Ward1983> amenado, i get the menu and everything, where can i check the details again for grub? ill pastebin the config file
[22:28] <Al-Khouli> Hi guys, i am trying to install my HP-1215 printer, but i can't get it detected here, can any help ?
[22:28] <Imagineer66> Live and learn.  Sometimes that's the price of computing.
[22:28] <tekteen> Ongaku: use sudo make uninstall in the directory you compiled it in
[22:28] <Imagineer66> I haven't used IRC in a LOOONGGG time.  How do I turn off the enters and lefts?
[22:28] <fr33d0m> hmmmm..  then you have to manually compile it and then youre just looking at work :/
[22:28] <madman91> Is there some universal system logger that logs processes/network-usage/etc.. in one readable way? .. like a hierarchy of folders
[22:28] <thesaint4444> hi guys, can anyone tell me how I change my keyboard layout in kde on fiesty? I go into the regional and language settings from system but the keyboard setting options are greyed out.... thanks.
[22:29] <amenado> Ward1983-> look at your boot.ini where it points grub
[22:29] <Ongaku> tekteen ok but where is it install default?
[22:29] <madman91> To log which processes run when and by which users
[22:29] <Slart> Imagineer66: depends on the client.. in irssi you do /ignore #ubuntu JOINS PARTS QUITS
[22:29] <Ward1983> Imagineer66, thats what my teacher probably thought earlyer today when he repeaditely asked me to explain (crappy windows) stuff
[22:29] <tekteen> thesaint4444: in systemsettings
[22:29] <Ongaku> tekteen: /usr/ something something??
[22:29] <Ward1983> amenado, will pqstebin it
[22:29] <tekteen> Ongaku: it will know
[22:29] <Slart> madman91: there's cacti.. takes some setting up.. but then it's shiny with nice diagrams and such
[22:29] <tekteen> thesaint4444: under region and language
[22:29] <Ongaku> tekteen: ok so i just type sudo make uninstall <theprogram>
[22:30] <Imagineer66> Thanks' Slart.
[22:30] <tekteen> Ongaku: no
[22:30] <madman91> Slart: is that for networking only?
[22:30] <thesaint4444> tekteen: no, it is there but greyed out.....
[22:30] <Imagineer66> Thanks slart... much more readable.
[22:30] <tekteen> Ongaku: you go to the folder where you did make install
[22:30] <Slart> madman91: all kinds of stuff.. processes.. free disk space.. ping times to servers.. network load.... lots of stuff
[22:30] <tekteen> Ongaku: then type sudo make uninstall
[22:30] <Slart> Imagineer66: indeed.. this channel can get kind of busy
[22:30] <Al-Khouli> can anyone help my with my HP-1215 printer setup ?
[22:30] <ianoshorty> hey all, im having a bit of trouble executing from tarballs. when i ./configure i get an error saying "checking for GLIB - version >= 2.8.0.... no and configure fails
[22:30] <ianoshorty> any ideas?
[22:31] <Ongaku> tekteen: yeah but where is that?? does it default to a certain folder?
[22:31] <tekteen> Ongaku: no
[22:31] <Slart> ianoshorty: you probably need a dev package.. hang on a minute.. I'll check
[22:31] <Ongaku> tekteen: i downloaded it and compiled it in the documents folder
[22:31] <thesaint4444> tekteen: there are no options available... any ideas? it is a real pain not having the correcty layout...
[22:31] <Imagineer66> I'm using Pidgin just because it was here.  What is a better IRC.  Back in the Win days, I would have used MIRC.
[22:31] <tekteen> Ongaku: then go there
[22:31] <drewb1> Hello, what a good editor if I need something to go through and redo all the indents in my program?
[22:31] <ianoshorty> ok slart thanks
[22:31] <Ongaku> tekteen: ok with cd and all that??
[22:31] <madman91> MMk, thanks Slart :)
[22:31] <tekteen> Ongaku: yes
[22:31] <Ongaku> tekteen: ok one sec
[22:32] <Ward1983> amenado, where to find it? never needed it before
[22:32] <fr33d0m> drewb1: gedit or personally i prefer nano
[22:32] <chelz> drewb1: to do it by hand, nano. to do it with amazingless, sed/awk
[22:32] <Imagineer66> drweb1  look at sed and awk.  They are not WYSIWIG but the perfect tool for what you want.
[22:32] <tekteen> thesaint4444: are you able to get to the region & language page?
[22:32] <thesaint4444> Imagineer: I use Konversation in kde...
[22:32] <drewb1> fr33d0m: gedit won't redo all the indents, will it?
[22:32] <thesaint4444> tekteen: yes...
[22:32] <amenado> Ward1983-> what are you looking for?
[22:32] <Imagineer66> Looking for a Gnome IRC.
[22:32] <tekteen> thesaint4444: then you went to keyboard layout?
[22:33] <Ward1983> amenado, boot.ini like u qsked
[22:33] <Slart> !info libglib2.0-dev | this might be the one, ianoshorty
[22:33] <Ongaku> tekteen: thank you :) i´ll have to remember that lol
[22:33] <ubotu> this might be the one, ianoshorty: libglib2.0-dev (source: glib2.0): Development files for the GLib library. In component main, is optional. Version 2.14.1-1ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 619 kB, installed size 2328 kB
[22:33] <thesaint4444> tekteen: but I cant make any changes....
[22:33] <thesaint4444> tekteen: nothing there to change...
[22:33] <tekteen> thesaint4444: click the checkbox at the top
[22:33] <Slart> ianoshorty: to install it run "sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev" in a terminal
[22:33] <amenado> Ward1983-> you have to tell vista boot loader to use grub, which file was that that you modified to add the line for grub?
[22:33] <thesaint4444> tekteen: yip did that... nothing..
[22:33] <ianoshorty> so if i do sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
[22:33] <Itaku> f
[22:33] <Ongaku> tekteen: haha it fixed everything too :) thank you very very much
[22:34] <Ward1983> amenado, lol thats all done, i can use grub and everything
[22:34] <ianoshorty> wow im actually making progress with linux :P
[22:34] <amenado> Ward1983-> i would think it is boot.ini but am not familiar with vista
[22:34] <tekteen> Ongaku: np
[22:34] <Itaku> whats a program to make flash objects??????????????????????????????????????????????????
[22:34] <drewb1> Imagineer66: I will look at sed and awk
[22:34] <Ward1983> amenado, grub jsut doesnt want to boot ubuntu
[22:34] <ianoshorty> thanks a lot, il let you know if that sorts it
[22:34] <tekteen> thesaint4444: ask for help in #kubuntu
[22:34] <Slart> Itaku: adding question marks won't make people help you..
[22:34] <fr33d0m> drewb1: you will have to go through and manually indent,...  maybe i misunderstood you
[22:34] <Ward1983> amenado, jsut forget vista, that part works
[22:34] <fr33d0m> Itaku: Adobe Flash
[22:34] <thesaint4444> tekteen: thanks... will do.
[22:34] <drewb1> fr33d0m: mm'kay thanks
[22:34] <amenado> Ward1983-> grub can boot ubuntu do not forget that.. its how you use vista boot loader to chain to grub
[22:34] <Itaku> fr33d0m i want it free
[22:34] <Slart> ianoshorty: this is a common thing to do.. run ./configure.. get an error.. find the dev package.. run ./configure.. rinse, repeat =)
[22:34] <ianoshorty> while im waiting - im new to irc, how to i target my message at someone?
[22:34] <Y-Town> Imagineer66: BitchX
[22:35] <Slart> ianoshorty: just type their nick first.. use tab to autocomplete
[22:35] <fr33d0m> Itaku: if you had been paying attention earlier..  we have told you 3 times
[22:35] <Ward1983> amenado, will check to be sure but that should be ok since grub worked... only it didnt boot ubuntu
[22:35] <amenado> Ward1983-> where did you install the grub? which partition, because thats where you point the vista boot loader to find  it
[22:35] <LjL> ianoshorty: simply type their names, like i'm doing. you can use the TAB key to autocomplete nicknames
[22:35] <Gunn> Itaku: too bad
[22:35] <Ward1983> amenado, hd2.0 (dev/sdc)
[22:35] <ianoshorty> Slart, thanks :)
[22:35] <Ward1983> first partition
[22:35] <Itaku> fr33d0m: im not paying a fricking 700 dollars for it
[22:35] <Imagineer66> Thanks for the help
[22:35] <richard> does someone know any tutorials for Zend Framework that guides you from the very basics of getting started with it?
[22:35] <fr33d0m> Itaku: can't help you there..  im sure you can figure it out though :P
[22:35] <Slart> ianoshorty: you're welcome
[22:35] <Imagineer66> later
[22:36] <ianoshorty> right lets see if that fixed it, brb sec

[22:36] <Gunn> Itaku: we are not here to direct people towards pirated software
[22:36] <Gunn> Itaku: we are here to help and get help from others for ubuntu

[22:43] <Pelo> __mikem, turn off the effects , see if you still have the problem, that will help you figure out the problem
[22:43] <Slart> Madroxprime: do you have three sticks of 512 Mb? does all the memory work in windows?
[22:43] <bjarki> If I am as name-desktop in VIM. can I expect to find files out in the "root"? (I can't find the file I want to edit).
[22:43] <__mikem> Pelo, oh
[22:43] <m3gach33zy> damit can anyone tell me why the resizing partition is taking so long? its been about 40 minutes and i'm still at 0%

[22:44] <Madroxprime> I got two one gig and a 512, it all works in Windows ...is it a ram pairing issue?
[22:44] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, ntfs partiton ? did you defrag it frist ? stuff needs to me moved around, it might take a while

[22:45] <m3gach33zy> Slart: lol now that i open my big mouth its done xD
[22:45] <Slart> Madroxprime: so.. 2.5 GB total =).. I thought memory was a BIOS thing... unrelated to what OS you run..
[22:45] <Madroxprime> erk, sorry makes no sense...i got two stick: one gig and a 512
[22:45] <Pelo> __mikem, you ask in #compiz , possibly it's just one of the pluggin that causes the problem you can turn that one off and go about your business
[22:46] <Slart> m3gach33zy: ah.. sometimes it helps to talk about scrapping the old computer... makes it scared =)
[22:46] <ianoshorty> Slart, and yes, I would love not to have to revert to windows just to say i managed it, but its just gettin used to linux and the finding information etc.
[22:46] <Pelo> Madroxprime, 1 gig in bank 0 and 512 in bank 1 ?
[22:46] <__mikem> Pelo, the desktop effects don't have any configuration options. YOu can turn them on or off, but thats about all the control you have over them by default in ubuntu 7.10
[22:46] <m3gach33zy> Slart: lol
[22:46] <ianoshorty> Slart, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59628/ <my paste

[22:46] <m3gach33zy> does anyone know what migrate documents and settings part of the install means?
[22:46] <Pelo> __mikem, in advance or custom , you might need to install an extra package

[22:55] <way2go4me> this is sth different
[22:55] <Pelo> arrow_, in the ff menu , under help, the about option
[22:56] <Slart> way2go4me: if you really want to.. you can use mIRC in wine
[22:56] <Pelo> way2go4me, right now you are using xchatgnome probably which noone realy likes,  try regular xchat, look in add/remove , it's nicer
[22:56] <arrow_> thx Pelo

[22:57] <way2go4me> it's hopeless
[22:57] <Slart> Boriz: great.. you'll find that a lot of the common questions here are answered with just a short command to the bot that gives out a link.. saves us from typing the same stuff over and over =)
[22:57] <bastid_raZor> what program would i use to view .ICEauthority?
[22:57] <Afwas> way2go4me, simply click the exe installer of a program and ir will install under wine
[22:58] <Dex-Freudii> ICEauthority?? go to Alaska :P
[22:58] <Pelo> way2go4me, you won't be using the progs that are installed in your windows partitons, you will need to install them on wine, put the cds in or what ever you used to install these progs in windows, find the installer fileson then and right click , open with wine
[22:58] <Slart> way2go4me: what kind of programs do you miss? what are you looking for?
[22:58] <Ward1983> Itaku, im gonna go and boot in vista to see whats in the vista bootloader (with some prog whose name i dont recall atm)
[22:58] <Pelo> way2go4me, but you are better off looking for linux alternatives to the windows progams you are used to
[22:58] <way2go4me> don't run away, i look it up

[22:59] <ompaul> way2go4me, and to be honest you should try to use the ones that are native to the platform you are on - it makes more sense you are taking toyota parts and sticking them into a renault

[22:59] <Berto> Hi - Is there a good GUI app for managing cron?
[22:59] <artenius> Can anyone tell me how to keep ubuntu from overwriting my motd file. I went to the trouble of making a custom one earlier and now it's gone. hehe
[22:59] <Illbiteyournose> thank you ubotu and Pelo
[22:59] <way2go4me> eg i got a program nppgwrap.exe
[22:59] <Pelo> !thanks
[22:59] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[22:59] <Berto> In all my years of linux, I never learned crontab nor do I want to... but I'd like to see what keeps waking me up at 730am
[23:00] <Slart> artenius: I doubt ubuntu killed your motd file.. probably some kind of ftp-server..
[23:00] <way2go4me> paul it makes sense...
[23:00] <Pelo> Berto, what happens at 730 &
[23:00] <Slart> Berto: crontab -L
[23:00] <artenius> Slart: I'm not running any servers, let alone FTP. All I did was reboot.
[23:00] <Dex-Freudii> I need some help with gParted
[23:00] <Berto> Pelo, my hard drive starts going bonkers :)
[23:00] <snypzz_> I want to open BBC and other media web sites with VLC
[23:00] <Dex-Freudii> if I resize a partition, will the UUID change as well???
[23:00] <snypzz_> not working...
[23:00] <Slart> artenius: what kind of motd do you have?
[23:00] <ianoshorty> Slart, well that got me a lot further after those two packages installed, the thing configures, now i get an error when i try and make it, should i pastebin the error?
[23:00] <Pelo> Berto, at about 730 my own comps checks for updates
[23:01] <Slart> ianoshorty: why not.. go ahead
[23:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Dex-Freudii, yes
[23:01] <Berto> Pelo, hmm where is the update checker at?
[23:01] <bastid_raZor> snypzz; do you use Firefox?
[23:01] <snypzz_> not working...yes
[23:01] <Pelo> Berto, crontab -l and sudo crontab -l will list cronjobs for both current user and root
[23:01] <Slart> Berto: I think it's in software sources.. in system, administration I think
[23:01] <__mikem> Which is better recomended at this moment based only on how well it works, adobe-flash, or Gnash?
[23:01] <artenius> Slart: well, I deleted everything in the motd except the top line, then I added an ascii text image and a warning menu system below that, with commands I made in bash
[23:01] <Dex-Freudii> snypzz_ System-Preferences- Preferred Apps (I don't know if it is like this in english)
[23:01] <way2go4me> Cannot open /home/oxfam/Desktop/nppgwrap.exe: No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file.
[23:01] <Berto> Slart, Pelo, yeah crontab -l gives nothing.  I'll check out the timing on updates
[23:01] <Pelo> Berto, menu > system > admin > sorfware sourcs, 4th tab I think , but you cna'T set the time
[23:02] <Scunizi> __mikem, gnash works fine..
[23:02] <Dex-Freudii> Jack_Sparrow: and how can I know the new UUID in order to update fstab?
[23:02] <Slart> __mikem: abode flash.. gnash is  a nice initiative.. but it's got a long way to go
[23:02] <Illbiteyournose> one more question, i have an external hard drive but everytime i want to use it i have to mount it manually, is there a way to have it automount when my computer starts?
[23:02] <__mikem> Okay
[23:02] <stefano> is there a Q&A channel for ubuntu development?
[23:02] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, blkid in the terminal
[23:02] <artenius> Slart: the commands are still working, but the motd was overwritten when I rebooted
[23:02] <Berto> Pelo, interesting.. i wonder where that's set to check
[23:02] <Flyerfye> How do I format a hard drive that wont mount ( I assume it wont mount because it is NTFS or something )
[23:02] <Scunizi> Slart, __mikem isn't flash still broken in Gutsy?
[23:02] <Pelo> Illbiteyournose,  list it in fstab
[23:02] <ianoshorty> Slart, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59631/ is the link
[23:02] <snypzz_> found it got it thanks
[23:02] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: thnx
[23:02] <way2go4me> hey, thx all
[23:02] <Illbiteyournose> pelo, will tha tmake it mount when it starts or when i log in?
[23:02] <Slart> artenius: what motd are you talking about? I've never seen a motd exept for a ftp server..
[23:02] <Flyerfye> Its an external hard drive btw
[23:03] <way2go4me> i'll rejoin you later
[23:03] <__mikem> Scunizi, it seems to work fine when Desktop Effects are disabled
[23:03] <Slart> ianoshorty: looking...
[23:03] <way2go4me> gotta go to sleep now
[23:03] <ianoshorty> Slart, Cheers
[23:03] <Pelo> Illbiteyournose, check the lines for the cdroms , you can probabaly make it an automated event
[23:03] <artenius> Slart: I'm talking about /etc/motd
[23:03] <Scunizi> __mikem, I know the installer was having issues a while back.. they've probably fixed it.
[23:03] <way2go4me> bbye
[23:03] <Berto> Pelo, awesome, i think it was installing security updates too, which was making noise.  i'm a light sleeper but want to sleep til 8 :)
[23:03] <Pelo> Berto, set it to check for 1 a week or someting
[23:03] <Illbiteyournose> pelo, k thank you very much, btw where is fstab?
[23:04] <Pelo> Illbiteyournose, /etc/fastab
[23:04] <Pelo> Illbiteyournose, /etc/fstab
[23:04] <Illbiteyournose> Pelo, thank you very much
[23:04] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: blkid /dev/sda1
[23:04] <Dex-Freudii> but It won't print anything
[23:04] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii,  just blkid
[23:04] <Slart> artenius: ahhhh.. that motd.. now I understand.. or.. well.. I don't understand why ubuntu kills your own version.. perhaps it was updated.
[23:04] <snypzz_> Just type VLC in custom???
[23:04] <Flyerfye> Can I get help with my hard drive problem above
[23:05] <Pelo> snypzz_, in smallcaps
[23:05] <Slart> ianoshorty: odd error.. have you done this "sudo apt-get install build-essential" ?
[23:05] <Pelo> snypzz_, smallcase I mean , vlc , VLC
[23:05] <ianoshorty> Slart, indeed
[23:05] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: either
[23:05] <snypzz_> thanks
[23:05] <ianoshorty> Slart, yes i have
[23:05] <Slart> ianoshorty: and the ./configure worked without any errors?
[23:05] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: doesn't work
[23:05] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii,  linux is case sensitive,  blkid
[23:05] <artenius> Slart: oh well, I'll just made a new one and back it up as motd2 and overwrite ubuntu's everytime it overwrites mine.. hehe like a motd war!
[23:05] <Pelo> BLKID but in smallcase
[23:05] <ianoshorty> Slart, yeh, as far as i can tell - if i did it again, would it make any difference?
[23:06] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: I know... blkid does exist but it won't print anything
[23:06] <Slart> ianoshorty: I don't think so.. but give it another go
[23:06] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii,  there is something very wrong then,  that would me you hve no partitons on your computer what so ever
[23:06] <ianoshorty> Slart, yeh definately configures fine :)
[23:07] <ianoshorty> Slart, still no difference to make
[23:07] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: oh... I understand... I'm using LiveCD... I want to resize a partition in order to install Heron without deleting Feisty... so I have to update my Feisty /etc/fstab file
[23:08] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, that sould not keep blkid from displaying partitons as far as I know
[23:08] <Slart>  ianoshorty: ah.. found the error.. you have to install gettext "sudo apt-get install gettext"
[23:09] <Pelo> Slart, what is ianoshorty compiling ?
[23:09] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: why is the fstab using UUID in stead of using just /dev/sda1
[23:09] <ianoshorty> Slart, ok doing that - out of curiousity how do you know how to solve this problem? i honestly dont have a clue where to go - thats the biggest problem im having :P
[23:09] <sYn_0n3> sup room
[23:09] <foxray> hi can i install xubuntu and ubuntu on different paritions? xubuntu seems to be crashing on me and I'm wondering if its just gutsy gibbon
[23:10] <sYn_0n3> how are my fellow ubuntuers doing today
[23:10] <sYn_0n3> ITS FRIDAY!!!
[23:10] <DrIP> hi
[23:10] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, it can use either or both,  uuid will keep partitions identified properly even if you add or remove hdds from your comp
[23:10] <Slart> ianoshorty: I googled the error-message =)  I googled for <  "/bin/sh: -o: not found" awn ubuntu  >
[23:10] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo, ok
[23:10] <Pelo> !uuid | Dex-Freudii
[23:10] <ubotu> Dex-Freudii: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[23:10] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo, so if I change fstab to use /dev/sda1 instead of UUID it will work properly right?
[23:10] <the_darkside_986> where is the gnome-screensaver SDK? I need to make screen savers in Gnome. i know C++, SDL, and opengl. does anyone have links, i can't find them anywhere?
[23:10] <SubOne> i tried to install the drivers for my ati card from and then unsinstalled and every which way from sunday i tried combinations and compiz runs very slowly. i still cant get compiz to speed up any, im not sure what im doing wrong. can someone assist?
[23:11] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, sudo blkid apparently
[23:11] <Pelo> Dex-Freudii, it will
[23:11] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: thank you very much
[23:11] <DrIP> I need a ubuntu server solution that would have no inet but i need DHCP for my wireless internet ANY IDEAS??
[23:11] <ianoshorty> haha, your having more luck than i am! :P i love how linux works, but its gonna take me a while to deal with errors when i come accross them
[23:11] <Dex-Freudii> Pelo: sudo blkid works
[23:11] <DrIP> my wireless card is a WMP11 v4
[23:11] <Pelo> DrIP, maybe in #networking
[23:11] <DrIP> kk
[23:12] <ianoshorty> Pelo, im installing avant-window-navigator (or trying:P)
[23:12] <Pelo> ewww
[23:12] <Pelo> ianoshorty, ther are repos for awn and you can then instal it from synaptic , you don'T need to compilie it
[23:12] <Pelo> ianoshorty, just google awn ubuntu
[23:12] <inxane> DrIP: are you trying to enable DHCP serving?
[23:12] <Pelo> !awn
[23:12] <Slart> ianoshorty: that's whay #ubuntu is for..  =)
[23:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about awn - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[23:12] <Pelo> !avant
[23:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avant - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[23:13] <DrIP> inxane: no, i need the card to work :P
[23:13]  * Pelo curses ubotu
[23:13] <inxane> DrIP:  what card is it?
[23:13] <DrIP> inxane: WMP11 v4
[23:13] <DrIP> linksys
[23:13] <Slart> strange that noone has made an avant factoid.. it's not an uncommon question
[23:13] <ianoshorty> Slart, same error im afraid :(
[23:14] <Slart> ianoshorty: hmm.. that's for trusting google...
[23:14] <Pelo> ianoshorty, I'm still wondering whhy you are building it
[23:14] <ianoshorty> Pelo, well, i couldnt find them, but regardless, id kinda like to work this out so that i know for the future how to get stuff like this working
[23:14] <inxane> DrIP:  have you looked into ndiswrapper?
[23:14] <ianoshorty> Slart, haha :P
[23:14] <Slart> ianoshorty: did you run configure too?
[23:14] <DrIP> inxane: yes...
[23:14] <gregbrady> Is there a way to filter internet access for kids in Ubuntu?
[23:14] <the_darkside_986> !gnome-screensaver
[23:14] <Pelo> ianoshorty,  there are simpler things to start larning to compile with
[23:15] <inxane> DrIP:  and it didn't work?
[23:15] <ianoshorty> Slart, no, didnt realise i needed to :P
[23:15] <m3gach33zy> can anyone help me with my ubuntu install?
[23:15] <DrIP> but how can I put that onto my server? lol n00b question... i know...
[23:15] <ianoshorty> Slart, sec, recompiling
[23:15] <DrIP> inxane: but how can I put that onto my server? lol n00b question... i know...
[23:15] <s-h-a-k-a> DrIP: What card is your card?
[23:15] <ianoshorty> Pelo, no doubt :P
[23:15] <s-h-a-k-a> What chipset?
[23:15] <Slart> ianoshorty: neither did I.. but according to another page I found on google.. it does make a difference
[23:15] <DrIP> s-h-a-k-a: linksys WMP11 v4
[23:15] <Pelo> ianoshorty, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=385981
[23:15] <inxane> DrIP:  you need to compile the source, and download the windows drivers for your card from linksys
[23:15] <sYn_0n3> hey guys everytime i login to gnome i get a message about the X keyboard configuration settings 2 choices either to use X or gnome settings..it happens everytime i login help
[23:16] <inxane> DrIP:  the ndiswrapper install doc explains how to do it
[23:16]  * Pelo likes to teach ppl how to compile using grisbi , only 2 dependencies
[23:16]  * nickrud thinks pelo is lazy
[23:16] <inxane> DrIP:  also, check with synaptic, you should be able to download the binary direct
[23:16] <DrIP> inxane: ok, but how should i physically put it on my server... the source...
[23:16] <DrIP> (no inet)
[23:16] <the_darkside_986> how to screensavers work in Ubuntu? I need to learn how to write clones of popular malware-infested Windows screensavers so my "support customers" won't be trying to run them in Wine :P
[23:16] <s-h-a-k-a> DrIP: I need to know what chipset your card has
[23:16] <inxane> DrIP:  flash drive, burned disc, ext HD
[23:16]  * Pelo is shamed by nickrud and consider leaving the channel forever
[23:16] <m3gach33zy> I just finnished installing ubuntu on my desktop.  Now when i select ubuntu it loads it up but than the screen gets blank
[23:17] <s-h-a-k-a> cause there is an easy way of doing it, if its a broadcom 43xx
[23:17] <ianoshorty> Pelo, Cheers :) il take a read over, though i may have just got it working - i think the make just worked without any errors - we see :)
[23:17] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  it isn't
[23:17] <Slart> the_darkside_986: well.. afaik there's a screensaver daemon that runs all the screensavers.. not sure if it works the same way as in windows
[23:17] <DrIP> inxane: is there an 'auto mount' because my USB controller is kinda weird on my server...
[23:17] <ianoshorty> Slart, right maked, we see, sec
[23:17] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, what video card ?
[23:17] <s-h-a-k-a> ok
[23:17] <m3gach33zy> xfx 8600
[23:17] <Ayabara> !compiz
[23:17] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[23:17] <inxane> DrIP:  plug in your usb drive, and type dmesg.
[23:17] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, waht company is that ?
[23:17] <s-h-a-k-a> inxane: What chipset?
[23:17] <m3gach33zy> nvida
[23:17] <DrIP> inxane: ok i'll do that
[23:17] <inxane> DrIP:  it should tell you the device node
[23:18] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  ndiswrapper is his solution, but he has another problem than just drivers
[23:18] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: nvidia
[23:18] <s-h-a-k-a> inxane: Why not just fwcutter?
[23:18] <DrIP> inxane: :D thanks! i know what to do after that thanks again :)
[23:18] <s-h-a-k-a> Its a lot easier
[23:18] <inxane> DrIP:  no problem... good luck
[23:18] <ianoshorty> Slart, haha still no luck, time to give up me thinks :P but thanks for all the help, il try and find some other way :)
[23:18] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  not really
[23:18] <the_darkside_986> So are Ubuntu screensavers simply executables that get killed when the daemon detects user input? If so, then I think I can easily write those.
[23:18] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, ok yuou will boot the recovery mode, and the type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , select the vesa driver when asked and leave everyting else on default unless you know better,   that will at least get yuou the desktp we can fix the driver from there
[23:18] <sander_m> Question: The aticonfig command generated a new ServerLayout section in my xorg.conf. The Screen line reads: `Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]" 0 0`. What's with the extra 0's on that line?
[23:19] <s-h-a-k-a> Hows that?
[23:19] <Slart> ianoshorty: ah.. well well.. you can always try to find a repository that has it.. it's much easier
[23:19] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  with ndiswrapper, you download the binary from synaptic, then the driver from linksys, unzip and type ndiswrapper -i <inf file>
[23:19] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay but how do i boot in recovery mode?
[23:19] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  then, ndiswrapper -m
[23:19] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, from the boot menu , second option
[23:19] <s-h-a-k-a> fwcutter isn't any harder tbh
[23:20] <inxane> s-h-a-k-a:  but it's the same number of steps ;) never said either one was easier
[23:20] <ianoshorty> Slart, thank you very much, much apprectiated
[23:20] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay its doing a bunch of stuff righ now
[23:20] <ianoshorty> Pelo, you too :)
[23:20] <Slart> ianoshorty: you're welcome
[23:20] <Pelo> ianoshorty, yw
[23:21] <Freon> hello atg
[23:21] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: i'm assuming i want to say yes to the autodetect video hardware?
[23:22] <Ward1983> how can i find out why i get a error 17?
[23:22] <sander_m> Another question: Quite a few programs (glxinfo, xdriinfo) give out a "display" variable. E.g, :0.0 or :1.0. What is that? And how does it relate to the stuff in my xorg,.conf file?
[23:22] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, you can try but I recommend you select the vesa driver for now
[23:22] <Ward1983> i have no clue what i did wrong its pointed to the right partition
[23:22] <inxane> Ward1983:  in grub?
[23:22] <Ward1983> inxane, yes sorry forgot to mention that
[23:22] <Freon>  @ sander its you actual display
[23:22] <Pelo> Ward1983, what is the dev of the partion ubuntu is on , and what is the (hd#'#) in grub %?
[23:23] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay i have a multi head set up... and it says here that for useres of multi head setups this option will configure only one of the heads.  further configuration will have to be done manually in the x server configureation file, /etc/x11/xorg.conf.
[23:23] <Ward1983> Pelo, just a sec im looking, livecd is slow :)
[23:24] <nickrud> sander_m: you can have more than one display running on the machine, or be connected to xservers on another machine. It's a way to identify them. Try apps->system->new login , and compare each
[23:24] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, that is correct , lets just get the one screen going for now
[23:25] <Pelo> Ward1983, you'll need to look in the /boot/grub/menu.lst on your hdd, not in the live cd one
[23:25] <Ward1983> Pelo, i know :)
[23:25] <joanki> can anyone recommend a good flash card program?
[23:25] <Pelo> Ward1983, I can'T tell from here ;-)
[23:26] <Ward1983> Pelo, lol im working on itm the CD makes me wait a lot
[23:26] <esteth> Is there a console app/command i can use that will simply tell me how many new emails there are in a pop or imap account?
[23:26] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: okay well there were a bunch of options and I just said yes to them all
[23:27] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, pretty much
[23:27] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, now restart the comp
[23:27] <Ward1983> Pelo, huh :s no grub dir
[23:27] <eekrano> php
[23:27] <Pelo> Ward1983, /boot/grub
[23:27] <Ward1983> Pelo, i suspect grub is installed on the wrong disk...
[23:28] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: and right now it says xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly customised configuration file; backup in /etc/x11/xorg.conf.20080314162633 root@marc-desktop:~#
[23:28] <Ward1983> Pelo, i know but its not there lol
[23:28] <Pelo> Ward1983, that might be the case,  I recommend you get the supergrub cd and use that to fix the problem it will clreate a new /boot/grub/menu.lst file for you
[23:28] <Gunn> hey this is kinda off topic but does anyone know why when I boot vista it hangs at the screen before you log in, where the lil bar fills up
[23:28] <Ward1983> Pelo, ok never mind its there... i was on the damn CD again
[23:28] <Ward1983> the CD is giving me a hard time
[23:29] <Gunn> and it wont go past that, but the lil animation just keeps going and going even after its full
[23:29] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: so i guess i need a sudo command to keep going?
[23:29] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, yes let it , your currrent file is buggered that»'s why we are makeing a new one
[23:29] <Karlprof> Gunn, yes, that's /quite/ offtopic for #ubuntu =P
[23:29] <Karlprof> Gunn, maybe someone in ##windows would know?
[23:29] <Gunn> Yeah Karlprof I appologize but im just dumb found as to what to do
[23:29] <nickrud> esteth: mailcheck may do the trick for you
[23:29] <m3gach33zy> Pelo: well it wont let me continue until i get passed this postinst warning
[23:30] <tsmith0> hi, I'm new to ubuntu and not to linux. In other distributions, I could set the refresh rate using the file xorg.conf and setting appropriate VertRefresh and HorizSync ranges. Ubuntu completely ignores these and forces the monitor to use 60hz. the GUI screen resolution tool just reports false values...help?
[23:30] <Ward1983> Pelo, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59633/
[23:30] <Pelo> m3gach33zy, I'm not sure I understand the question, that whole process was about making a new xorg.conf file, just let it tell it yes or not or whatever it needs

[23:33] <noelferreira> start automatically Pelo. i mean turn on
[23:33] <Slart> ianoshorty: ah.. good.. that's always easier
[23:33] <Pelo> Ward1983,  hold on I'll pull up the grub manual

[23:34] <sarthor> Hi, i am using shaper for on ubuntu for limiting my user bandwidth. what change i will need to make in my conf file to restrict my user for maximum 30kb uplink?? my conf file is here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59634/
[23:34] <noelferreira> Pelo, has to be how?
[23:34] <Ward1983> Pelo, ok thqnx, that thing (the manual) is a bit over my head so much appreciated for helping
[23:34] <Pelo> noelferreira, you can' t program your cmpute to turn on it if is turned off,
[23:35] <Ward1983> noelferreira, that might be possible in your bios
[23:35] <Ward1983> Pelo, some bioses allow it
[23:35] <Pelo> Ward1983, might be that the partition is damaged
[23:35] <Ward1983> Pelo, small chance its a clean ubuntu install without errors
[23:35] <uberpsyx> hey guys, just built new rig and got an 8800GT, problem is i install the drivers and it starts into safe graphics mode and wont leave vesa, any idea how to sort it?
[23:35] <Pelo> Ward1983, might want to reorder your hdds to make second or first
[23:36] <Pelo> gotta go guys,  take care
[23:36] <Ward1983> Pelo, i used the "use full disk" option with the installer so surely the etx3 partition is located at the beginning of the disk and grub should be in the bootsector
[23:36] <alexman> how do you change the permissions, ownership, of a file?
[23:36] <th89> how can i disable NMI watchdog?

[23:42] <steve176> Hi. Anyone know how to get electricsheep to run fullscreen on gutsy? I've tried --zoom 1 --root 1 and xscreensaver with no luck. thx
[23:42] <Ward1983> Cew27, open it in a text editor, edit it and save it?
[23:42] <Scunizi> Cew27, yep.. open it and you'll see notated an area that you shouldn't touch.. but if you're dual booting you can move the windows portion to the top of the list.
[23:42] <anteaya> Scunizi and Odd-ratioinale: thank you
[23:42] <pac1> Coolguy64537, Its a black art... Seriously, you need to check out stuff with google.  Try xorg.conf and the name of your laptop for starters.  Then just xorg.conf laptop.  Were you able to boot the live cd?
[23:42] <Coolguy64537> nope
[23:43] <asvedilox> ciao

[23:46] <ronandi> when I download the ubuntu iso, do I have to burn it, or can I just mount it?
[23:46] <Coolguy64537> so do i have to edit the xorg.conf
[23:46] <Coolguy64537> file
[23:46] <Ward1983> Coolguy64537, try adding "Option ' DisplayDevice" "dfp" ' to your xorg.conf
[23:46] <Slart> ronandi: well.. depends on what you want to do with it.. if you want to boot from it you'll ahve to burn it..
[23:47] <Slart> ronandi: if you just want a file or two from it.. mount it

[23:50] <wolfric> can someone help me with installing apache ? im new to to linux
[23:50] <Scunizi> wolfric, sudo apt-get install apache2
[23:50] <Slart> wolfric: installing is as easy as typing "sudo apt-get install apache" in a terminal.. configuring is a bit more work though
[23:50] <wolfric> ty
[23:51] <Slart> wolfric: well.. use apache2 for apache 2.X.. apache for the old v1.X apache
[23:51] <wolfric> at this stage ive got both but tried to search for apache to try find it in my file system and cant...  im sorry but where does linux put programs?
[23:51] <wolfric> doesnt show up in my applications drop down list so wasnt sure if i had installed it right or not
[23:52] <Scunizi> wolfric, you'll find the www directory in /var/www or /var/apache2/www
[23:52] <Afwas> wolfric see /opt/
[23:52] <Slart> wolfric: a little bit here.. a little bit there.. apache is probably run in the background.. start it using "sudo /etc/init.d/apache start"
[23:52] <ar0nic> guys im using an ati card and having no luck playing videos properly
[23:52] <wolfric> cool ty bud life saver... does the server start up in the background as a service or automaticly?
[23:53] <Scunizi> wolfric, there is no gui for apache.. you have to manually configure it.. unless I don't know about an available gui frontend.
[23:53] <Llewxam> hey guys. anyone know how to work with the ricoh media card reader? it's recognized but it won't load anything.
[23:53] <ar0nic> ive tried a multitude of options and im even trying to download the xserver-xorg-video-ati driver
[23:53] <ar0nic> any ati familiar peeps here?
[23:53] <Scunizi> Llewxam, try putting your medium in the adapter first then plugging it into the usb hub
[23:53] <ronandi> what irc client do you guys use?
[23:53] <Scunizi> xchat
[23:53] <Scunizi> irssi
[23:53] <Slart> wolfric: I'm not really sure.. I think it starts automagically...
[23:53] <Slart> irssi
[23:53] <Coolguy64537> mirc
[23:54] <Llewxam> Scunizi: it's integrated
[23:54] <Afwas> wolfric, there is an additional program called XAMPP control panel capable of starting Apache
[23:54] <Slart> !ati | ar0nic
[23:54] <ubotu> ar0nic: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[23:54] <Scunizi> Llewxam, aah.  that would make it a little tough then.. sorry I don't have an answer.
[23:54] <Slart> ar0nic: that's all I can do to help you.. I use nvidia myself... try to stay away from ati for now
[23:54] <wolfric> sudo apt-get xampp right?
[23:55] <Llewxam> Scunizi, yea it's proven a bit tough. tried almost anything i can find and nothing seems to work -.-'
[23:55] <ar0nic> Slart been all over that
[23:55] <Slart> wolfric: probably going to have to throw in an install there.. "sudo apt-get install xampp"
[23:55] <ar0nic> ive got all proper codecs installed but i get no video only sound
[23:55] <wolfric> yup tried it couldnt find the package

[23:59] <Slart> ar0nic: well.. there are people using ati cards.. they might be sleeping now though =)
