[18:32] <stefg> globe: google is your friend :-) Keep in minf that ubuntu uses upstart, so any  inittab related howto does not apply :-)
[18:32] <chucka-mama> where is the alsa-base config file located by default?
[18:32] <ikonia> mrmonday: you a usb key would be better, or a boot floppy that boots a usb key
[18:32] <poule_magik> fyrestrtr: do you want the URL?
[18:32] <johnficca> so I am trying to compile gnome-sharp and I get Requested 'glade-sharp-2.0 >= 2.10.3' but version of Glade is 2.10.2
[18:33] <mrmonday> ikonia, could you recommend something that can boot a USB key?
[18:33] <poule_magik> fyrestrtr: http://video.aircrack-ng.org/noclient/
[18:33] <globe> stefg: upstart....that is what I was looking for.  everything on google talks about inittab and ming-something or other.  thanks!
[18:33] <ikonia> johnficca you need a higher version of glade
[18:33] <johnficca> how do I install glade-sharp
[18:33] <fyrestrtr> Vacovsky: du --max-depth=1 -h /var/cache/apt/archives <-- type that in a terminal
[18:33] <mrmonday> ikonia, how would I get that to boot the CD then?
[18:33] <ikonia> mrmonday: a motherboard that suppors ysb boot ?
[18:33] <cake4567> usb mouse and laptop mouse wont rightclick and it worked before..nothing changed really
[18:33] <stefg> !upstart | globe
[18:33] <ubotu> globe: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[18:33] <mrmonday> ikonia, nope
[18:33] <johnficca> ikonia: or can I just turn it off?
[18:33] <ikonia> mrmonday: if you can't boot from cd then your screwed
[18:33] <ikonia> johnficca: turn what off ?
[18:33] <chucka-mama> where is the alsa-base config file located by default?
[18:33] <poule_magik> fyrestrtr: look at the setting up of the wifi card, variables are exported and then used in another terminal without any problem !
[18:33] <johnficca> looking for glade-sharp
[18:34] <Johan-_> I have a very strande error. If I do "ls" I can se my "plist" file, but when doing "rm plist" it says "rm: cannot remove `plist': No such file or directory" and when doing "rm -rf plist" nothing happens. If I try "cat plist" it says "cat: plist: No such file or directory". Is the file there or not?
[18:34] <bachstudies> just installed acroread from the medibuntu repo and it was really slow c. 20kb/s. Is that normal for this repo?
[18:34] <ikonia> johnficca it NEEDS it to build
[18:34] <Vacovsky> fyrestrtr:  it lists two directories, totaling about a gig
[18:34] <johnficca> ikonia: so where would I get glade-sharp from?
[18:34] <ikonia> johnficca the ubuntu repos ?
[18:34] <globe> stefg: thx
[18:34] <ikonia> johnficca or build it by hand
[18:34] <Esteth> narothepharoh: file-roller is the default archive manager, it comes with ubuntu. the "codec" is "sudo apt-get install rar" iirc
[18:34] <ikonia> johnficca but buildign anything by hand will break yoru package managment software
[18:34] <babu> anyone, www.divxlive.com, i cant watch from this webaddress
[18:35] <ikonia> johnficca so don't build what ever it is your building
[18:35] <mrmonday> ikonia, what I was going to try to do is to use a floppy disk, then use that to boot from my USB cd drive - how would I do this? is it possible?
[18:35] <johnficca> ikonia: I think I need to build it but where do I download it from?
[18:35] <steam_power> johan-_ weeeeeird
[18:35] <poule_magik> fyrestrtr: have you seen it ?
[18:35] <ikonia> mrmonday: you can't really do that
[18:35] <Johan-_> steam_power: i know :(
[18:35] <ikonia> johnficca: I don't know, but I'd advise you not to do that, as it will break your package manager
[18:35] <mrmonday> ikonia, :(
[18:35] <steam_power> johan-_ tried 'file plist'?
[18:35] <mrmonday> ikonia, is there any other way I could get xubuntu on it?
[18:36] <Herbo> genii, it works
[18:36] <johnficca> ikonia: I'm trying to install moonlight plugin for firefox
[18:36] <ikonia> mrmonday put a cdrom in ?
[18:36] <Esteth> narothepharoh: that should be "sudo apt-get install unrar" actually.
[18:36] <Johan-_> steam_power: "plist: ERROR: cannot open `plist' (No such file or directory)
[18:36] <Johan-_> "

[18:36] <mrmonday> ikonia, it doesn't have a CD drive
[18:36] <mrmonday> ikonia, the CD drive I mention is a USB hard drive, which the bios can't boot from
[18:36] <ikonia> mrmonday buy one ?
[18:36] <l0pht> can anyone help me out with an qlogic qla2200 card using server 6.10, I need a floppy disk with the correct driver and can not find it
[18:36] <mrmonday> *cd drive
[18:37] <mrmonday> not hard drive
[18:37] <ikonia> mrmonday: buy a cd drive
[18:37] <mrmonday> ikonia, I have one
[18:37] <ikonia> l0pht as that a fiber card
[18:37] <ikonia> mrmonday: then boot from it
[18:37] <poule_magik> fyrestrtr: are you still here ?
[18:37] <l0pht> yes
[18:37] <l0pht> fiber
[18:37] <stefg> !sbm | mrmonday
[18:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sbm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:37] <mrmonday> ikonia, how? it's a usb cd drive and the motherboard can't boot it
[18:37] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,  that guy is doing somehing odd there with that export,  it dosent work that way by default.
[18:37] <ikonia> l0pht: ok, what is the problem with it
[18:37] <ikonia> mrmonday: buy an IDE one and install it
[18:37] <fyrestrtr> poule_magik: I don't see where there is another terminal?
[18:37] <mrmonday> ikonia, it's a laptop - I can't do that
[18:38] <fyrestrtr> poule_magik: the video only shows one Konsole session.
[18:38] <l0pht> ikonia: the disk will not recognize when I'm doing the install
[18:38] <poule_magik> Dr_willis/ did you see the video ?
[18:38] <ikonia> mrmonday: then your screwed
[18:38] <stefg> mrmonday: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto might be interesting
[18:38] <Dr_willis> fyrestrtr,  at the end . he makes a 3rd Konsole and uses the exoported variable from the first one.
[18:38] <mrmonday> ikonia, I tried sbm, but it can't recognise the uSB CD drive :/
[18:38] <ikonia> l0pht: ahhh what type of disk is connected to it? san ?
[18:38] <mrmonday> stefg, I tried sbm, but it can't recognise the uSB CD drive :/
[18:38] <IdleOne> mrmonday: I think what ikonia is trying to say is that your hardware doesnt seem to like ubuntu so you need to get ubuntu friendly hardware
[18:38] <l0pht> ikonia: XioTech sans
[18:38] <poule_magik> fyrestrtr: he opens 3 terminal in the video !
[18:38] <tongueroo> how do you list the currently installed packages on the system?
[18:38] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,  yes i did.. and thats not 'normal'
[18:38] <narothepharoh> Esteth Thank you I appreciate it
[18:38] <tongueroo> apt-get variant?  apt-list.. ?
[18:38] <stefg> !install > mrmonday
[18:39] <ikonia> l0pht I think this is going to be a draw back, the ubuntu livecd won't zone in disks for you by default
[18:39] <Johan-_> steam_power: no ideas?
[18:39] <poule_magik> fyrestrtr: have you seen it til the end ?
[18:39] <ikonia> l0pht: most people don't install to san disks so I don't think this is taken into account in the installed
[18:39] <ikonia> l0pht: you /may/ have better luck with the server cd install
[18:39] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,  unless thers some Konsole settings or other things that are going on.   Konsoles sharing 'exported' variables - could cause some very bad  things to happen.
[18:39] <l0pht> ikonia: I am using the server cd 6.10
[18:39] <poule_magik> Dr_willis: are you sure ?? it's a live distribution so it is not customized before making this video !
[18:39] <ikonia> l0pht: try 7.10 - but I don't think it will matter
[18:39] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,  try it for yourself.. read up on bash. Thats not normal behiavor.
[18:40] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,   Its possible his 'make new konsole button' is doing somthing  extra.
[18:40] <poule_magik> Dr_willis: such as what for instance ?
[18:41] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,  no idea. what ever its doing sounds like a good way to cause a lot of problems
[18:41] <tongueroo> anoyone know, how do you list the currently installed packages on the system?
[18:41] <mnicholas> quick question . .  I just installed openvpn with the add/remove programs . .. WHERE IS IT ?
[18:41] <babu> give an idea for install yahoo messenger
[18:41] <Dr_willis> what if you exported CC in one konsole to use distcc, then wanted to compile somthing differently so exported it again in a 2nd.. WHAT one woudl the 3rd console get ..
[18:41] <l0pht> ikonia: I looks like I just need the driver for the qla2200 for the drive to get setup
[18:41] <ikonia> tongueroo dpkg -l
[18:41] <ikonia> l0pht: yes, but you'll need to put that in the initrd
[18:42] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,  i would almost guess he edited the video.
[18:42] <poule_magik> Dr_willis: oh really ?
[18:42] <mnicholas> synaptic package manager will show you whats installed
[18:42] <erUSUL> mnicholas: most likely it is a collection of command line utils
[18:42] <cake4567> hey
[18:42] <mnicholas> oh
[18:42] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,  Unless the Orieialy bash book is missong somthing. :) i rember them  being very clear on how export worked.
[18:42] <cake4567> can I PM someone an error message that keeps poping up on login?
[18:42] <babu> Dr?willis : i want to install yeahoo messenger but i cannt
[18:42] <John_R> mnicholas: have you tried out vmware server?
[18:43] <ikonia> cake4567 just ask in the channel
[18:43] <poule_magik> Dr_willis: ok thank you, bye
[18:43] <cake4567> There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
[18:43] <John_R> vmware player only allows one vm to be run at a time, and you cant make vmx files with it. vmware server is available as a free download from the vmware site
[18:43] <Dr_willis> poule_magik,  it MAY be hes not using bash
[18:43] <cake4567> Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work correctly.
[18:43] <cake4567> The last error message was:
[18:43] <cake4567> Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
[18:43] <cake4567> GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in
[18:43] <erUSUL> mnicholas: look for a how to on the web... i heard that network manager can manage conections to vpns but i'm not sure
[18:43] <babu> Dr_willis : i want to install yeahoo messenger but i cannt
[18:43] <ikonia> cake4567 get the exact error and put it in a pastebin
[18:44] <John_R> vmware works pretty well, too, i have a 2.4 ghz 1 gig ram box and run ubuntu 7.04 as the host os with xp pro, bcbsd, and debian etch as guest vm's all at once with no problems
[18:44] <cake4567> thats all that came up?
[18:44] <ikonia> cake4567 no its nto "something about themes" didn't come up
[18:44] <narothepharoh> DMA disabled on device DVDRW - IDE 16X
[18:44] <narothepharoh> With most modern CD/DVD devices enabling DMA highly increases read/write performance. If you experience very low writing speeds this is probably the cause.how do i fix this?
[18:44] <John_R> oh, nm. you said openvpn. im dumb
[18:44] <dmi3on> hi all i just run from CD ubuntu 7.10 and its asking for pass and user what should i enter ?
[18:44] <Dr_willis> babu,  the 'official' yahoo messanger for linux? or just a client that can do Yahoo? Pidgin can do yahoo i hear.
[18:44] <cake4567> how would I get the full message?
[18:45] <bruenig> dmi3on, ubuntu and try nothing
[18:45] <babu> Dr_willis : the official
[18:45] <ikonia> cake4567: write it down
[18:45] <dmi3on> ?
[18:45] <l0pht> ikonia: so can I install the /boot section to a local HD and then the rest of the / system to the sans?
[18:45] <mnicholas> John_R: Does vmware support open vpn connects ?
[18:45] <idrc> whats the root passwd for the gutsy livecd? om trying to winscp but its asking for passwd
[18:45] <Dr_willis> babu,  last i looked the official Yahoo messenger for linux was like 3+ yrs old. and no longer even worked with the yahoo service
[18:45] <cake4567> thats what the popup message said!
[18:45] <bruenig> idrc, there isn't one, you can use sudo without a password though
[18:45] <John_R> it should. each guest OS is given it's own IP and literally runs as a complete system
[18:45] <cake4567> I just copied and pasted it!
[18:46] <cake4567> There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.

[18:46] <Dr_willis> babu,  what exactly  works>? the yahoo site dont even mention a linux client any more.
[18:46] <mEck0> is there a nice webshop to buy hardware from which sends the stuff from an eu-country (so I don't need to pay duty for them)? It should be possible to send the hardware to sweden...

[18:47] <Dr_willis> merovingian,  use the unrar tool.

[18:49] <diddy> dmi3on, have you tried leaving them blank
[18:49] <dmi3on> yes
[18:49] <Dr_willis> I find that winrar.exe and wine works decently well for me.
[18:49] <mjbrooks> is xgl installed by default on gutsy?

[18:50] <bruenig> cake4567, awn won't work on black desktops?
[18:50] <bruenig> seems a weird bug
[18:50] <l0pht> ikonia: can you show me a link on how to fix the initrd
[18:50] <stefg> narothepharoh: don't expect too much. use hdparm if ou wanna try though
[18:50] <mjbrooks> Pici, thanks... sudden;y having an issue with my compiz :/
[18:51] <cake4567> no the desktop is black aswell...its some problem starting the visual effects http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44638/plain/
[18:51] <dmi3on> can any one help plz
[18:51] <zenwryly> where do, for example, failed cron task messages go?  More generally, where would I find in gutsy what I used to find in the local root mail spool in debian?
[18:51] <kane77> bruenig, I guess he meant there was some kind of an error and that's why his desktop is black
[18:51] <narothepharoh> stefg:how do i use hdparm
[18:51] <cake4567> yes kane
[18:52] <filloy> Ok, I have an external HDD mounted in /media/Sheik. The fs is vfat and for some reason i cant change the permissions to a folder. If I do chmod 755 /media/Sheik/Web it says everything is ok, but if I check the permissions, it still is 750. Any idea on whats going on in here? thank you very much!
[18:52] <stefg> narothepharoh: sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/<your-cd-device
[18:52] <jamal247e> hello guys, I've got a problem with Virtualbox...... it's not recognized my DVD-rom.... it's only recognised my  CD-drive.... what should I do?
[18:52] <kane77> that reminds me.. I always wanted to ask: how do I change background?? - the one that's shown right after login.. by default it's brownish...
[18:53] <filloy> jamal247e: did you tell virtualbox to use the dvd?
[18:53] <jamal247e> no!
[18:53] <jamal247e> how?
[18:53] <BlueRider> how do i find out what version of syslinux i have installed? it doesn't seem to have a version flag
[18:53] <dmi3on> what should i enter user and pass when first time run ubuntu from CD-room
[18:53] <diddy> dmi3on, I have not run the 7.10 cd, have you filled in any boxes for login and password
[18:54] <desertc> kane77: where?
[18:54] <cake4567> any ideas guys?
[18:54] <dmi3on> yes
[18:54] <kane77> desertc, what where?
[18:54] <filloy> open virtualbox, do not start the OS you have there (which i assume is Windows)...then select Settings, and go to CD/DVD-ROM. There you will have: Host CD/DVD Drive and a drop down menu to choose which cd/dvd to use :)
[18:54] <Dr_willis> filloy,  for vfat stuff you set the permisisons with the mount options. You DONT just 'chmod' the mount points
[18:55] <kondrix> can i install and play good old quake under ubuntu. Without the use of win emulator ?
[18:55] <kane77> desertc, when the splash screen is shown..
[18:55] <Dr_willis> filloy,  the umask option is normally used to set the permissions as needed.
[18:55] <filloy> Dr_willis: so I have to mount the vfat volume and tell it to have 755 permisions?
[18:55] <stefg> !games > kondrix
[18:55] <h|barbobot> kondrix: yes, it's in the repositories, all you have to do is copy the pkg files
[18:55] <desertc> kane77: What splash screen?
[18:55] <cake4567> why doesnt ubuntu like me?
[18:55] <kondrix> stefg thanks
[18:55] <kane77> desertc, when logging onto ubuntu...
[18:55] <filloy> Dr_willis: ohh, i see, it is umask=007!!!....i should change it to 002 then :)
[18:55] <jamal247e> well, I know that... But there is one CD-Drive and now DVD-drive!
[18:55] <Dr_willis> filloy,  yes. Theres examples of this all over the place. :)
[18:55] <kondrix> h|barbobot thanks
[18:55] <Dr_willis> filloy,  A+++++_ :) ya got it!
[18:55] <Yellow> can someone help me to fix my sound ?
[18:55] <desertc> kane77: When the services are coming online?
[18:55] <diddy> dmi3on, and now it will not take the logins you told it you wouild use
[18:56] <excaliber27> Does anyone know why my xorg config through nvidia keeps reverting back to a lower screen resolution after I reboot?
[18:56] <kane77> desertc, yes
[18:56] <narothepharoh> sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/DVDRW -IDE16X
[18:56] <narothepharoh> /dev/DVDRW: No such file or directory
[18:56] <cake4567> how do I fix gnome?
[18:56] <desertc> kane77: The one that is up for two seconds?
[18:56] <Ditters> hi all
[18:56] <Dr_willis> filloy,  some sites say use umask=0000  not sure how they differ.
[18:56] <kane77> desertc, yes, though it's a bit longer on my laptop :)
[18:56] <filloy> Dr_willis: haha !! there it is, thank you!!
[18:56] <dmi3on> diddy: what you mean >
[18:56] <dmi3on> ?
[18:56] <Billies> Is it possible to have a difrent background for each desktop?
[18:57] <filloy> Dr_willis: now apache is working properly :) thank you very much again!
[18:57] <h|barbobot> Billies: in kde yes, in gnome no
[18:57] <kane77> desertc, not that it's super important thing, but I couldn't do it.. so I was curious...
[18:57] <desertc> kane77: Not sure why you would want to change that one, but you'd have to ask the GNOME developers.  It's part of the startup.
[18:57] <Ditters> how can it be that i can surf the Internet, but cannot update of install apps, because the ubuntu says I need an internet connection?
[18:57] <Dr_willis> filloy,  you got apache on a vfat partition?
[18:57] <Dr_willis> filloy,  :P
[18:57] <cake4567> anyone?
[18:57] <Billies> What one is ubuntu come with?
[18:57] <stefg> narothepharoh: your device must be something like /dev/hdc ... it won't work anyway if there is already the scsi-emulation of libata in effect, so the device is /dev/scd0 or /dev/sr0
[18:57] <filloy> Dr_willis: yes, why? haha, its an external hdd so i need to be readable in windows (yes i know :() and linux...
[18:57] <desertc> cake4567: How do you fix GNOME?  Is that your question?
[18:58] <cake4567> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44638/plain/
[18:58] <cake4567> from this error message
[18:58] <igor47> so what is the consensus on installing ubuntu over a previous linux installation without formatting first?
[18:58] <cake4567> already restarted twice
[18:58] <kondrix> h|arbobot can you be more specific about the quake. I run start->add/remove...search for "quake".  Its a Konsole "feature".
[18:59] <Billies> Does ubuntu by default run KDE or gnome? I ment workspace backgrounds
[18:59] <igor47> MidnighToker: meh...maybe preserve some settings
[18:59] <Dr_willis> filloy,  :) Windows can read/write ext2/3 with an add on tool.. But it can be risky doing it that way
[18:59] <Ditters>  how can it be that i can surf the Internet, but cannot update of install apps, because the ubuntu says I need an internet connection?
[18:59] <filloy> jamal247e: did you get it to work?
[18:59] <cake4567> but I just friggin installed the OS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[18:59] <MidnighToker> igor47: it should all be in /home, just dont wipe out the home directory
[18:59] <Dr_willis> fyrestrtr,  ok. If you say so, :) ive never noticed it befor.
[18:59] <cake4567> it was working...then I had AWN and it was working....now its just not
[18:59] <fyrestrtr> Dr_willis: I installed console -- basically its the difference between a 'session' and a 'window'.
[18:59] <filloy> Dr_willis: yes, but i would have to install that in every computer I visit :p not so practical :( anyways, its working, and thank you very much! :D
[18:59] <diddy> dmi3on, as you fired up the CD at some point you entered a login name and a password to use, yes, now it will not accept that login etc, is there any difficulty with simply restarting the CD again.
[18:59] <fyrestrtr> s/console/konsole/
[18:59] <excaliber27> can anyone help out with my nvidia issue? please. :)
[18:59] <igor47> MidnighToker: i dont have a separate /home partition.  but yeah, ok, i'll just copy it to another machine.
[19:00] <luka> sera
[19:00] <Dr_willis> fyrestrtr,  ahhh...   a session is a clone of a existing shell i guess.
[19:00] <luka> salve raggi volevo 1 info
[19:00] <desertc> !ask  > excaliber27
[19:00] <MidnighToker> igor47: yeah, leave /home as it is, that should be fine, but wipe /
[19:00] <globe> stefg: yessssss!  thanks again!
[19:00] <fyrestrtr> Dr_willis: you got it ;)
[19:00] <Ditters> can someone help me please with 7.10 on brand new computer?
[19:00] <desertc> !ask > Ditters
[19:00] <Ditters>  how can it be that i can surf the Internet, but cannot update of install apps, because the ubuntu says I need an internet connection?
[19:01] <ehird`> poor oklokok is running Dapper, someone tell him how to upgrade to Gutsy
[19:01] <Billies> Does gutsy gibon run KDE or gnome? anyone know? or does it run something else?
[19:01] <Ditters> *of = or
[19:01] <cake4567> desert any other ideas?'
[19:01] <cake4567> gnome
[19:01] <desertc> Ditters: Firewall.
[19:01] <Dr_willis> fyrestrtr,  i will mess with it at work. :)
[19:01] <cake4567> billies gnome
[19:01] <fyrestrtr> Billies: ubuntu = gnome, kubuntu = kde
[19:01] <Ditters> i want to install firestarter
[19:01] <desertc> cake4567: No other ideas.
[19:01] <Dr_willis> work time. :( bye all
[19:01] <excaliber27> desertc  well, when I reboot the box, I seem to be reverting back to a lower resolution in x windows. The driver module is fine, but the screen res changes. Any thoughts
[19:01] <Ditters> but can't!
[19:01] <Pici> !upgrade > oklokok (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[19:01] <desertc> excaliber27: How are you making the settings?
[19:01] <Billies> What's the diffrence between KDE and gnome? is it possible to switch without losing all of my files and their  settings?
[19:02] <excaliber27> desertc through the gui
[19:02] <kane77> Billies, yes..
[19:02] <kane77> Billies, in fact you can have both installed...
[19:02] <desertc> excaliber27: What GUI ?
[19:02] <Ditters> desertc - does 7.10 comes with firewall installed automatically?
[19:02] <excaliber27> desertc I'm not a newbie. through screen and graphics, under admin
[19:03] <desertc> Ditters: No, do you have a firewall outside the computer?
[19:03] <Billies> kane77: Is there a way to get a background for workspace 1, and set a difrent one for workspace 2?
[19:03] <Ditters> no
[19:03] <Ditters> i don't
[19:03] <Tilllinux> hi there...
[19:03] <kane77> desertc, isn't iptables considered to be a firewall?
[19:03] <desertc> excaliber27: Try setting it, restarting X, setting it again if necessary, then restarting X again.  If it is still configured, then try rebooting
[19:04] <desertc> kane77: Is it?
[19:04] <excaliber27> msg desertc I've done that
[19:04] <kane77> Billies, well.. in kde you can.. not in gnome afaik
[19:04] <Ditters> isn't that strange that i can surf the internet but can't install apps?
[19:04] <desertc> excaliber27: You'll have to try configuring xorg.conf by hand.
[19:04] <kane77> desertc, i'd say so...
[19:05] <Billies> kane77: If is it easy to just switch to KDE? because I don't think I would do it for something as simple as backgrounds
[19:05] <desertc> kane77: I'll agree with you.
[19:05] <Tilllinux> why does the update-manager (or apt-get update/upgrade) request the gutsy-cd if it could use the internet instead? I'm asking, because, when answering "cancel" to the "please insert the cd XYZ" dialog the update just stops and doesn't even try to download the packages from the internet... You'll have to delete the cd-sources from the sources-list...
[19:05] <excaliber27> desertc I'll check that out. but any suggestions in the config file?
[19:05] <Tilllinux> wouldn't it be easier to be asked wether to use the cd or not?
[19:05] <excaliber27> desertc I'm familiar with xf86setup but never used the xorg setup before
[19:05] <ffighter> anyone here use Tilda?
[19:05] <desertc> excaliber27: Everyone's is different.  You're going to have some work to do and research too.
[19:06] <kane77> Billies, all you have to do is install the kubuntu-desktop package...
[19:06] <dmi3on> Ubuntu 7.10 It's asking me for a username and password
[19:06] <bakarat> i need an application that pings a number of hosts continuously to check for connectivity on a network, does anyone know any good ones?
[19:06] <dmi3on> i running from cd
[19:06] <excaliber27> desertc thanks. later
[19:06] <desertc> Tilllinux: Sure.  But, Do you have a problem?
[19:07] <Pici> !away > zapa|away (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[19:07] <Ditters> please - can someone help me? I can't update or install applications because of an internet problem, but I can surf the web. how can it be?
[19:07] <stefg> Tilllinux: uncheck the CD in your software sources (in synaptic) then you won't get asked. If you were on a 56k dialup line, you probably want the CD, on broadband prolly not.
[19:07] <desertc> Ditters: You have ports blocked somewhere.
[19:07] <Tilllinux> stefg: that's what I did :p
[19:07] <Billies> kane77: and all it does it add features right? won't take anything away? I use ubuntu for games as my windows harddrive is down with a bad case of virus infection, and it strugles on something as simple as a java game, or some simple 3d game, yet on windows, it played everything fine
[19:08] <erUSUL> Ditters: maybe your mirrors are temp down??
[19:08] <Eamo> How can I share an wifi internet connection  on laptop via ethernet port?
[19:08] <Ditters> desertc - how can i check it?
[19:08] <kane77> bakarat, what should it do, just ping? should it log it?
[19:08] <stefg> !firestarter | Eamo
[19:08] <desertc> Ditters: I don't know.
[19:08] <erUSUL> !firestarter | Eamo
[19:08] <ubotu> Eamo: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[19:08] <desertc> Ditters: Take a look at what erUSUL said too
[19:08] <Tilllinux> didn't I say this?... however, there just should be an option button... "please insert the cd" ... well, If you don't possess one anymore, and you hit cancel, the update just won't stop... I'd just ask If the user wants to update from the internet-repos
[19:09] <bakarat> kane77, a visual representation of the connection status should suffice
[19:09] <kane77> Billies, yes it just installs a whole lot of packages.. and then on start you'd have option (if you chose session on the login screen) to boot kde or gnome
[19:09] <Ditters> erUSUL: i don't think so. the message ubuntu gives appears so fast, that it can't be it's checking the web
[19:09] <Billies> kane77: sounds fun, im off to play with it
[19:09] <oobe> hallo im running ubuntu gutsy and i do not have any problems with it its working perfectly fine i just thought i would let you know
[19:09] <crowley1027> is it possible to login as root?

[19:12] <desertc> ehird`: What's your problem?
[19:12] <Billies> kane77: so I install this in the synaptic package manager? what exactly is KDE's package called?
[19:12] <asilva> i adjuste my songs in icones and dont have songs!!
[19:12] <ZiRo`> but why does it get out of sync so badly
[19:12] <ehird`> !ohmy > desertc
[19:12] <rubydiamond> which is best
[19:12] <asilva> i am brasilian
[19:12] <kane77> Billies, it's called kubuntu-desktop
[19:12] <ehird`> desertc: that statement offended me
[19:12] <stefg> ZiRo`: Dual boot ?
[19:12] <rubydiamond> kubuntu or ubuntu
[19:12] <bakarat> kane77, hehe, i was thinking the same thing, but if one alreadey existed, would save me the trouble :p
[19:13] <asilva> i bad speak inglish
[19:13] <ZiRo`> well, diff hdds
[19:13] <rubydiamond> I think ubuntu..
[19:13] <desertc> ehird`: Why do you have to be like that?
[19:13] <sainzeo> ZiRo: did you set it to sync with another server or is it just using the dfeault settings?
[19:13] <ZiRo`> ive tried both
[19:13] <eric__> asilva tu est bresilien?

[19:16] <desertc> dmi3on: What did you set your user name to?
[19:16] <soundray> narothepharoh: on edgy, you had to install libk3b2-mp3 -- run 'apt-cache search k3b mp3' to find out if it's the same on your version.
[19:16] <Billies> is there any way to get pidgen to show who is offline?
[19:16] <ackdesha> bakarat: try the 'mon' package (a tool for monitoring the availability of services)
[19:16] <dmi3on> desertc i didnt sat any
[19:16] <desertc> dmi3on: You'll need to boot to the livecd and look at what the user is in /home
[19:17] <desertc> dmi3on: You always set one.
[19:17] <narothepharoh> soundray what is edgy?
[19:17] <dmi3on> desertc: how ?
[19:17] <soundray> Billies: all 6 billion of them?
[19:17] <bakarat> ackdesha, ah? didn't know it could do this, will look into it :)
[19:17] <soundray> narothepharoh: an older version of Ubuntu, which I use where I am right now.
[19:17] <IdleOne> soundray: lmao
[19:17] <desertc> dmi3on: Alternatively, reinstall but be more careful what you put as a user name and password.

[19:21] <jimjam> bulmer: Turn it on, it connects to a preauthenticated router. Turn it off, it stops
[19:22] <bulmer> jimjam-> how do you then check the status of your ethernet port?
[19:22] <og01> desertc: I thought the group could be inherited with s set
[19:22] <alexmatos> stefg: I already read all of it
[19:22] <soundray> osmosis: "ipmi"?
[19:22] <crowley1027> B
[19:22] <crowley1027> How do I make a read-only file system into a read-and-write?
[19:23] <og01> desertc: I can get acl to do this?
[19:23] <jimjam> bulmer: Generally, I plug in an ethernet cable. When nothing happens, I normally had to restart. This time, I decided to fiddle around with the network app in the Administration menu and found that eth0 was not active
[19:23] <desertc> og01: one sec
[19:23] <bulmer> crowley1027-> unmount it and remount as  rw
[19:23] <soundray> crowley1027: assuming it's mounted on /mnt, 'sudo mount -o remount,rw /mnt'
[19:23] <Milos_SD> how can I set permitions for ext3 partition? I just created it and root ownes it so I can not create files and folders.
[19:24] <smcavoy> Hi I'm trying to clone ubuntu 7.10 with mondo rescue but it seems to have a problem with the fact that ubuntu labels everything scsi and this is not passed on to mondo in some form. does anyone have a fix for mondo or another imaging (ghost like) system that works with 7.10?
[19:24] <alexmatos> wpa_supplicant is not working with network manager
[19:24] <bulmer> jimjam while your wireless is up was the ethernet also up? which router is the ethernet connected to? same router?
[19:24] <erUSUL> Milos_SD: create subfolders on the partition and change the permisions of that folders
[19:24] <alexmatos> I need some help on that
[19:24] <desertc> og01: http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/usersguide/linux_ugfilesp.html
[19:24] <alexmatos> already read everything avaiable on the net
[19:24] <og01> desertc: thanks
[19:24] <desertc> og01: That bit is for setting directory execute permissions
[19:24] <desertc> to a group
[19:24] <jimjam> bulmer: No. These are different routers in different buildings. I'm not sure if the ethernet was still up while wireless was on.
[19:25] <FalandA> hello guys
[19:25] <jimjam> bulmer: I can check it now, but I'll need to d/c for a few seconds
[19:25] <bulmer> jimjam-> check first and then report back
[19:25] <desertc> The processing required to watch all new files appearing in a directory tree and change their settings would be significant.

[19:25] <bulmer> jimjam-> also note the route table before and after okay..pastebin it
[19:26] <og01> desertc: arnt permisions read every time a file is accessed anyway?
[19:26] <dmi3on> corpse: nu ti razrugalsq tut !
[19:26] <desertc> Sure.
[19:26] <og01> desertc: do you think I can get acl to acheive what im after?
[19:26] <desertc> And when you copy them into a directory the directory perms are checked.  But not recursively down the tree.
[19:27] <FalandA> hello guys someone can help me how may i connect WEP / 64 bit 10 hex digit password on NetworkManager?
[19:27] <og01> desertc: ah yes true - didnt think of that

[19:27] <Giova_> i've a problem with my notebook
[19:27] <Giova_> my audio doesn't work
[19:27] <dmi3on> desertc: reboot com. and again run from CDroom is still saying incorrect pass user
[19:27] <og01> desertc: I'll continue researching, see if i can find anything
[19:28] <desertc> og01: Take a look at /tmp, which is shared, but the files within can still be private.
[19:28] <og01> desertc: thanks
[19:28] <Giova_> i've just installed ubuntu by cd
[19:28] <bulmer> FalandA-> make sure it connects to same AP without encryption 1st just to check ...then work on getting wep working
[19:28] <desertc> Giova_: Welcome to the Free community.
[19:28] <og01> desertc: will do
[19:28] <FalandA> what is AP bulmer ?
[19:28] <Giova_> desertc: thank you
[19:28] <LoudNLowNoma> Giova-> Hiya!  Did you try the liveCD to see if the sound works that way?
[19:28] <soundray> !sound > Giova_, please read ubotu's message. If that doesn't help, come back and ask more specifically
[19:28] <riotkittie> Access Point
[19:28] <Giova_> no
[19:28] <FalandA> oh
[19:28] <bulmer> FalandA-> why are you even using wireless?
[19:28] <Giova_> sound doesn't work
[19:28] <desertc> dmi3on: Your LiveCD says incorrect password?
[19:29] <dmi3on> yes
[19:29] <desertc> Giova_: It is probably muted.
[19:29] <Giova_> but with live cd no codec was found
[19:29] <FalandA> sorry i dont know shortcuts :)
[19:29] <Giova_> nono
[19:29] <Pici> !who
[19:29] <ubotu> As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[19:29] <Giova_> it isn't mute
[19:29] <desertc> dmi3on: makes no sense
[19:29] <FalandA> i checked them bulmer before
[19:29] <FalandA> can we talk on pm?
[19:29] <coma> i have azureus installed and it worked fine up to today.. but now it crashes just after it finished loading.. anyone know what i can do?
[19:29] <bulmer> FalandA-> nope, just here on the main..so someone else may benefit..
[19:30] <dmi3on> desertc: i dont uderstan what to do thats why i am asking
[19:30] <FalandA> okey
[19:30] <bulmer> FalandA-> how did you check them before?
[19:30] <FalandA> i have another notebook too
[19:30] <LoudNLowNoma> Giova_: So no sound when running the LiveCD then?
[19:30] <FalandA> with windows
[19:30] <FalandA> i can connect with it
[19:30] <desertc> !enter > FalandA
[19:31] <bulmer> Giova_-> dont feel too bad, my sound chips mi8738 has not work for ages... :)
[19:31] <FalandA> does Networkmanager support WEP / 64bit 10 digits passwords?
[19:31] <desertc> dmi3on: I don't know what you are saying. The Live CD doesn't ask for a password.
[19:31] <bulmer> FalandA-> same os and same wifi chips?
[19:31] <dmi3on> desertc: heh
[19:31] <FalandA> yes
[19:32] <FalandA> i think problem, NetworkManager just support 128bit passphrase
[19:32] <LoudNLowNoma> bulmer: I say a small prayer everytime my laptop boots up that the sounds worked out of the box.  :)  Moreso after looking through some of the forum posts...
[19:32] <FalandA> so my AP adjusted WEP / 64bit 10 digit
[19:32] <bulmer> FalandA-> i dont use wep stuff..so someone else may be able to assist
[19:32] <paradizelost> hey all.
[19:32] <siloko> hi guys - hwat happens if I mount a partition (say /dev/sda1) on my home directory (/home/siloko) - what files do I see, what happens to the files I don't see?
[19:33] <FalandA> okey ty
[19:33] <paradizelost> i installed vmware server on feisty from the canonical repo's, but i cannot connect with Vmware Server Console on another machien
[19:33] <bulmer> LoudNLowNoma-> i hear you load and clear  :)
[19:33] <paradizelost> it tells me the username/password is incorrect
[19:33] <desertc> siloko: It is common to mount paritions within other mounts
[19:33] <apo`_> siloko: You see the files on /dev/sda1
[19:33] <apo`_> And nothing happens to the files you don't see
[19:33] <paradizelost> and i know i'm typing it right
[19:33] <paradizelost> any ideas?
[19:33] <siloko> apo`_: and when i unmount /dev/sda1 the files that were originally on /home/siloko are still intact?
[19:33] <bulmer> paradizelost-> 1st thing is can you ping the other host?
[19:33] <apo`_> Yes
[19:33] <paradizelost> yah
[19:33] <desertc> paradizelost: probably a question better for the support forum
[19:33] <paradizelost> i can ssh to it
[19:34] <bulmer> !who > paradizelost
[19:34] <coma> i have azureus installed and it worked fine up to today.. but now it crashes just after it finished loading.. anyone know what i can do?
[19:34] <desertc> coma: The default bittorrent client in GNOME works great.
[19:34] <triden99> coma: what message does it give?
[19:34] <paradizelost> bulmer: i can ssh to it
[19:34] <apo`_> siloko: To access the files, just mount the partition your ~ is on in another folder and go to /that/folder/home/siloko
[19:34] <bulmer> paradizelost-> if you can ssh into it, then it must be okay..eh?
[19:34] <paradizelost> bulmer: not according to vmware server consoel
[19:35] <paradizelost> and i need to get in to convert these machines over to a vmware ESX server
[19:35] <sid> This ubuntu box is setup weird, when I try to sudo nano /etc/hosts, it tells me "sudo: unable to lookup joebox via gethostbyname()
[19:35] <bulmer> paradizelost-> which os guest do you have on it running?
[19:35] <paradizelost> bulmer: 2 Server 2003's
[19:35] <sid> I check /etc/hostname, but I forgot to change /etc/hosts, joebox should link to <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:35] <desertc> guess you should have bought a support contract
[19:35] <sid> but I can't edit the file now
[19:35] <coma> triden99: it says problematic frame C  [libglibjni-0.4.so+0xb74b]
[19:36] <bulmer> paradizelost-> if you can ssh in to the win20003 then you are in..dont worry what the console is telling you
[19:36] <coma> desertc: i prefer azureus
[19:36] <desertc> coma: why?
[19:36] <paradizelost> bulmer: no, i can ssh into the server
[19:36] <paradizelost> bulmer: the ubuntu server
[19:36] <dmi3on> desertc: my Cd was not working hehe
[19:36] <dmi3on> desertc: my Cd-rom was not working hehe
[19:36] <bulmer> paradizelost-> you have to be clearer..i thought otherwise
[19:36] <smcavoy> can anyone suggest cloning tools that work well with 7.10?
[19:36] <desertc> dmi3on: Glad you are closer to getting a working solution!
[19:36] <Updulla1991_5047> Hallo w├╝rdet ihr mal alle off gehn weil der server lekkt
[19:36] <coma> desertc: i know how to set it up just like i like it to mirror my windows version
[19:36] <paradizelost> bulmer: but VMware Server Console won't let me log in to control the machines
[19:37] <hfwilke> has anybody here, in a dual boot setup, booted into Ubuntu and run the existing Windows Partition in VMWare Server
[19:37] <gman_> i have a acer3680-2682 i got everything working but card reader any ideals anyone
[19:37] <desertc> coma: I just use bittorrent to download files.  I barely give it any thought.  Click, download, done.
[19:37] <ST47> Creative names
[19:37] <ST47> !ops
[19:37] <rpj8> So I downloaded a .deb. is there a place where I can put it on my file system?

[19:37] <Pici> ST47: ?
[19:37] <bulmer> paradizelost-> is the server hosting that guest win2003 nearby? login to it directly and then ping the client wanting to connect to it
[19:37] <ST47> Pici: um , FloodBot\d
[19:37] <triden99> coma: sorry, haven't run across that before.
[19:38] <Pici> ST47: dont worry about it
[19:38] <LoudNLowNoma> rpj8: using ubtuntu, kubuntu?
[19:38] <bulmer> rpj8-> once you downloaded to your system it is there
[19:38] <rpj8> LoudNLowNoma: ubuntu
[19:38] <coma> desertc: i need it to do a bit more work then that.. moving to completed folders, download only at certain hours, keep certain ratios, prioritise cetain files etc
[19:38] <Pici> Mez: They are LjL's
[19:38] <pedro> Good afternoon everyone :)
[19:38] <paradizelost> bulmer: netowrking is working fine, the servers are on the network, etc.. it's just vmware on ubuntu for some reason isn't allowing me to log in remotely
[19:38] <nalioth> ST47: yes?
[19:38] <Pici> nalioth: LjL's bots again
[19:38] <rpj8> bulmer: I mean I downloaded a seperate .deb and it's sitting on my desktop.I'm sure there's a better spot for it than right there
[19:38] <pedro> I would like to know what exactly is my charset
[19:38] <pedro> because I think that my system mount with utf8 and I cannot see correctly some characters because I must use some other charset
[19:38] <bulmer> paradizelost-> what am asking is, can you check the path the other way? making sure the network connectivity is really there
[19:39] <ST47> :)
[19:39] <soundray> LjL: perhaps you should give them less alarming names?
[19:39] <LoudNLowNoma> rpj8: The .deb is basically just an installation file.  Once you have installed the software, you can get rid of it, or move it to another folder to save for later if you like.
[19:39] <narothepharoh> soundray thank you success
[19:39] <ir5> Hello, can anybody tell me how can i make the avant window navigator appear on top?
[19:39] <bulmer> rpj8-> well desktop can be good place as any other folders or directories...its your choice.
[19:39] <Pici> soundray: spambot1,2,3? or perhaps exploitbot...
[19:39] <desertc> coma: Wow, sounds difficult!  I am glad that the default bittorrent client makes it so easy that I don't have to think about anything more than what I am downloading and when it is done!!
[19:39] <ir5> it's always on the bottom of the screen
[19:39] <rpj8> LoudNLowNoma: Alright. THat's kind of what I was asking. Is there a folder reserved for these files in ubuntu?
[19:40] <paradizelost> bulmer: yes i can ping the other way
[19:40] <coma> ok i just realised that the azureus version  which i got from the synaptic packet manager is horribly out of date.. whats the easiest way to install the new version? just get it from the website?
[19:40] <LoudNLowNoma> rpj8: Noe really.  Like bulmer said - can go wherever you wanna keep it.
[19:40] <soundray> Pici: 1337hx0rbot
[19:40] <desertc> I cannot say enough for the default applications Ubuntu provides.    Can't ask for much more than that.  :)
[19:41] <ir5> i don't see any option in AVN... checked zillion times
[19:41] <pedro> no help at all?
[19:41] <desertc> With that -- I leave you all on this positive note.  :)  Off to do some errands.  Hope all your problems are shallow ones.
[19:41] <rpj8> sorry I got disconnected
[19:41] <bulmer> paradizelost-> from same host that has the guest, can you ssh in to that win2003k ?
[19:41] <rpj8> If anyone answered could ou repeat?
[19:41] <bulmer> rpj8-> you can store that file anywhere in your file system, if you want it organized, have a dedicated directory to put all yor downloads in..and remember where you stashed it
[19:41] <bakarat> is it ill advised to add a debian source to my sources.list? (i need a specific debian package, but the only way to get it is through apt-get it seems)
[19:41] <pedro> yes
[19:41] <paradizelost> bulmer: there is no ssh installed on win2003
[19:42] <pedro> well, I would like to know how exactly can I know my charset
[19:42] <chazco> !pda
[19:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pda - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:42] <chazco> !pocketpc
[19:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pocketpc - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:42] <pedro> I think I am using some diferent from utf8 and because of that I have some troubles
[19:42] <bulmer> paradizelost-> then what are you asking for? to connect to same win2003k? you can use krdc or whatever method it allows for login
[19:42] <chazco> Ok... hi, i have an ipaq rx4240, can anyone help me get it to syncronise with Evolution?
[19:42] <triden99> bakarat: is there any reason why you can't download the file and install it manually?
[19:43] <ir5> is there any better window navigator than AVN? or maybe how do i make AVN appear on top of the screen?

[19:46] <crdlb> lunartear: dpkg -l
[19:46] <Pici> lunartear: dpkg -l, look into aptoncd if you want to make a backup for reinstall
[19:47] <lunartear> ok thanks
[19:47] <lunartear> what does rc stand for
[19:47] <Esteth> Didn't realise ubuntu had a sense of humor. When i tried to remove all the xserver packages by accident, it said "You are about to do something potentially harmful, To continue type in the phrase ŌĆśYes, do as I say!ŌĆÖ"
[19:47] <Pici> lunartear: like a somethingrc file?
[19:48] <lunartear> I believe its a "state" of the package
[19:48] <lunartear> there's ii and rc so far
[19:48] <bulmer> Lunar_Lamp-> also  try   "apt-cache dump"
[19:48] <LoudNLowNoma> Esteth: Yeah, I've seen a couple similar messages from time to time.  Gotta love it!  :)
[19:48] <Pici> lunartear: ah, I'm not sure, you may have to check the dpkg manpage
[19:49] <Lunar_Lamp> bulmer, ?!
[19:49] <greencookie> someone help me install drivers for my laptop's wireless please
[19:49] <bulmer> ehh thats for lunartear ..hehe
[19:49] <crdlb> lunartear: removed, but configuration present
[19:49] <sid> greencookie: What wireless chipset?
[19:49] <lunartear> crdlb ah thank you
[19:49] <wdowning> greencookie: What kind of laptop?
[19:49] <bulmer> lunartear-> also  try   "apt-cache dump"
[19:49] <Pici> crdlb: good to know /me files away in brain
[19:49] <crdlb> lunartear: if you see a capital letter (eg "iU") then there's a problem
[19:49] <lunartear> bulmer ok thanks
[19:50] <lunartear> crdlb, alright
[19:50] <greencookie> inspiron b130
[19:50] <wdowning> That uses an Intel wl2200, if I'm not mistaken ...
[19:50] <greencookie> sid, wdowning: how do I check what card I have?:)
[19:50] <greencookie> wdowning: you might be right.
[19:51] <wdowning> I'm checking it now on Dell.com ...
[19:51] <wdowning> We have a buncha  Dells at work, so I have it bookmarked :()
[19:51] <aabrahao> I have installed x11vnc and tightvnc, but when I connect via client the task bar does not appears
[19:51] <greencookie>  wdowning: awesome!
[19:52] <LoudNLowNoma> So is the Broadcom 4318 wireless install/setup as hair-pulling insane as most forum posts and pages make it out to be?
[19:52] <wdowning> Ok -- it uses an Intel iw2200.  To enable that driver, you'll need to go to your update manager, and enabled the restricted-drivers ...     do you use gnome or kde ?
[19:52] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: I dunno bout that. but so far in all my ubuntu installs its a B**ch to get wireless to work
[19:53] <bakarat> triden99, i can't locate the .deb file
[19:53] <greencookie> wdowning: gnome
[19:53] <triden99> bakarat: what package are you trying to install?
[19:53] <bakarat> triden99, nav
[19:53] <greencookie> wdowning: I dont have restricted drivers module hold on
[19:53] <davidstillson> does anybody here use vmware server to host a windows OS?
[19:53] <Siert> nautilis has devices in the 'places' view, where does nautilus read the devices from?
[19:54] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: That part seems to go without saying, but for some reason it's not looking pretty for this particular card yet...lol.  I halfway attempted once and between that the ATI drivers royally made something mad, so haven't attempted it again yet...
[19:54] <Siert> (i checked /etc/fstab & /etc/blkid.tab)
[19:54] <davidstillson> I am trying to get my thumb drive to be reckognised my the windows machine, and I am having issues with it
[19:54] <wdowning> BTW green -- that's the exact computer we use at work -- I remember getting wireless working on it with ubuntu server just 2 weeks ago..
[19:54] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: Lol I have ATI drivers as well ;)
[19:55] <triden99> bakarat: the package name is 'nav'?
[19:55] <golem1> phooey.  I used vmware converter, created a .vmx image of my winxp install, wiped the disk and installed 7.10 and vmware server 1.0.4, and now i can't add my virtual machine because 'the configuration file was created by a vmware product with more features than this one'
[19:55] <greencookie> wdowning: I hope we can get mine to work as well.. both my desktop and lappy's wireless is down and rite now im using my lappy's eth0:)
[19:55] <wdowning> davidstillson: Your USB pendrive needs to have a FAT32 partition as the first partition in order for Windows to recognize it -- it will recognize multiple partitions on a USB drive, but only if the first is FAT32 or NTFS, and it will only recognize that drive ..
[19:55] <jamiejackson> is there a command i can run to get the ubuntu version?
[19:55] <bakarat> triden99, nav is a networking tool
[19:55] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: :)  That part I've somewhat become a pro with - working on my 5th install or so since I started with Ubuntu for various reasons, but this one seems to be running pretty strong now - also why I'm reluctant to try the wireless again...
[19:56] <bulmer> jamiejackson->   cat /proc/version
[19:56] <yalu> why is it that ubuntu is so bad at upgrading? both systems I tried to do an apt-get dist-upgrade from feisty to gutsy I ended up with various things broken on the system
[19:56] <bakarat> triden99, nav is a networking tool
[19:56] <wdowning> greencookie: have you tried installing the linux-restricted-modules package yet ?
[19:56] <vasuvi> jamiejackson: the easiest way is to just look at your sources.list (i.e.: cat /etc/apt/sources.list )
[19:56] <bakarat> triden99, so yes, the package name is nav :p
[19:56] <greencookie> wdowning: I'm trying to figure out how:)
[19:56] <yalu> like network not functioning , X config broken, startup of klogd hangs,...
[19:56] <Mitja> jamiejackson: also cat /etc/issue
[19:56] <Pici> yalu: Perhaps becausethats not the recommended way to upgrade
[19:56] <vasuvi> bulmer: that's kernel version, not Ubuntu version
[19:56] <davidstillson> well, the host OS is ubuntu
[19:56] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: if ure free can u help me in a bit? to install my Radeon X1300 card drivers?
[19:56] <nubcakes> can the ubuntu CD that gets shipped to people do installs from a hard disk running on a low memory (128mb) machine?
[19:56] <davidstillson> and I am running the windows box as a virtual machine
[19:57] <psycodad_> hi where can i find information about on which debian version ubuntu releases are based ?
[19:57] <Pici> jamiejackson: lsb_release -a
[19:57] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: right now its using vesa driver and ive tried for long time to install flgrx but no avail.
[19:57] <bulmer> vasuvi-> ah okay..
[19:57] <wdowning> go to your konsole (or terminal), using Applications / (I can't remember here what it's called, it's 2nd or 3rd one from the list) / Terminal ...
[19:57] <triden99> bakarat: ok. What was the debian source URL you were thinking of adding?
[19:57] <bakarat> triden99, i tracked down a deb package on the source url, can i simply download & install it? (i don't know how apt works, so not sure how this affects dependencies?)
[19:57] <TTilus> yalu: don't use apt-get to do dist-upgrade, use update manager or aptitude or some other mgmt tool which can handle deps better than plain apt
[19:57] <Siert> I got old entries in Nautilus, the places menu and are unable to delete them... can anyone help?
[19:57] <greencookie> wdowning: terminal is up and running what do I type?
[19:57] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: I can give it an honest shot  :)   when you looking at doing it?
[19:57] <nubcakes> i keep seeing mention of an "alternative CD" but have no idea how that relates to the CD they actually ship to people..?
[19:57] <bakarat> triden99, http://pkg-nav.alioth.debian.org it's there
[19:58] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: after getting this wireless issue solved. Might take a good 20 mins:)
[19:58] <triden99> bakarat: on sec..
[19:58] <wdowning> once in terminal, run sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules
[19:58] <Pici> Siert: The places menu grabs from the nautilus bookmarks, open a nautilus window and remove some of the bookmarks.
[19:58] <yalu> TTilus: I never broke deps... after all it are the packages which configure the system
[19:58] <davidstillson> and usb support is enabled, but when I try enable the usb device to the virtual machine, i get nothing there as an option
[19:58] <bakarat> triden99, http://pkg-nav.alioth.debian.org/debian/pool/etch/n/nav/ i've trakced the package down to there (i think) :p
[19:58] <jamiejackson> etc/issue and lsb_release -a work great, thx
[19:58] <Sean23> Hi, how do i burn a cdimage iso to a dvd? Or perhaps i don't need to do anything special?
[19:58] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: lol.  Sounds good.
[19:58] <ni1s> Anyone got Linux SW RAID working from the ALT install cd, and then to have it boot up properly?
[19:58] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: thanks
[19:58] <Pici> Repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[19:58] <wdowning> (sorry - didn't realize it would break up my message)
[19:58] <Sean23> Specifically the ubuntu cdimage to a dvd...
[19:59] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: np
[19:59] <_mug> hey
[19:59] <ni1s> All my hdbN has vansihed, I got hda1,2,3 and a hdb, but not the partitions on hdb(those should be 1,2,3).
[19:59] <wdowning> davidstillson: I've had similar issues trying to get qemu to recognize a USB drive. What I wound up having to do was set up a network interface and share my USB drive via samba, and connect to it from within the virtual machine :(
[20:00] <TTilus> yalu: I did not mean breaking, but gracefully surviving the tricky twists of dist-upgrade
[20:00] <TTilus> yalu: afaik Ubuntu is expected to be dist-upgraded with update manager
[20:01] <wdowning> greencookie: If the linux-restricted-modules don't work for you, let me know -- there are some other things you can do to help as well, such as making sure your iwconfig program works (or is present), etc...
[20:01] <TTilus> yalu: I actually did hoary to breezy to dapper to edgy to feisty, step-by-step as it is recommended, with the box I'm using now. To be honest I expected the upgrade stunt to fail but it worked fine.
[20:01] <Sean23> yeah and i'm on xp...
[20:02] <thiras> hi
[20:02] <Mr> hallo
[20:02] <davidstillson> looks like that is what I am going to have to do..  share out the drive via samba
[20:02] <greencookie> wdowning: when i try to enable restrictged driver it says bcm43xx-fwcutter is not enabled! help
[20:02] <Pici> !burniso | Sean23
[20:02] <ubotu> Sean23: To burn an ISO image of a CD in Linux, Mac OS or Windows, read the howto at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[20:02] <yalu> TTilus: I'll retry with the "do-release-upgrade"... see how that works out
[20:02] <wdowning> greencookie -- that sounds like a kernel module ...  hold on a sec ..
[20:02] <triden99> bakarat: http://pkg-nav.alioth.debian.org/debian/pool/sarge/n/nav/nav_2+3.2.2-1_all.deb
[20:02] <greencookie> wdowning: thanks
[20:03] <_mug> ive got a problem: im using ubuntu 7.04 (gnome) on a amd64 3000+ and a ati x800 gto and NOT the 3d-drivers (same problem there): when browsing websites containing flashelements (i think) x hangs up completely. even numlock on my keyboard isnt responding anymore, but background processes still work and i can move the mouse. i have to reboot. my browser is firebox (ubuntu out of the box + ubuntu-flash) any ideas?
[20:03] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: so what ati card do u have?
[20:03] <joel> Hello everyone. I have used VLC and MPlayer but neither of these tools have an option for watching a video in slow motion... Is there a player that have this feature?
[20:03] <triden99> bakarat: download that, and try to install it with dpkg -install package.deb
[20:03] <bakarat> triden99, any reason you choose sarge over etch?
[20:03] <CannibalMike> Hello all.
[20:03] <triden99> bakarat: no, no reason.
[20:03] <Alexandre_PB> Hi. I'm having problems loging in gnome (I'm using ubuntu 7.10). It's just too slow. Does anyone know anything about this issue?
[20:03] <bakarat> triden99, ok :p thanks for your help, will see if this works :D
[20:03] <_mug> ahm: not everytime i visit a flash-site, but often enougth
[20:03] <wdowning> BTW: greencookie:  are you using gutsy or fiesty ?
[20:04] <greencookie> wdowning: gutsy
[20:04] <sid> joel: mplayer can
[20:04] <sid> joel: mplayer -fps 5 movie.avi
[20:04] <triden99> bakarat: you can also add that source URL to your sources.list file; but I try to keep the number of non-ubuntu pkgs on my systems to a minimum.
[20:04] <sid> greencookie: lspci
[20:04] <joel> sid, ahhhh, via comand line :D Thanks
[20:04] <sid> greencookie: show me that output on www.rafb.net/paste
[20:04] <bakarat> triden99, ah ok :)
[20:04] <CannibalMike> So linux users,
[20:04] <jals> i've somehow removed the titlebar from my windows, how do i get it back?
[20:04] <CannibalMike> here's an easy one.
[20:04] <thiras> i have a problem. my dvd/cd writer(lg) doesn't write any media(with gnomebaker). error output(like first post) => http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-471181.html Any body help me?
[20:04] <jamiejackson> okay, and how might i determine processor architecture from the command line?
[20:05] <triden99> bakarat: hopefully, ubuntu already had the deps nav needs.  or provides them in the distro.
[20:05] <CannibalMike> on second thought, let's let it calm down here first.
[20:05] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: Mine is a Radeon Mobility X600
[20:05] <Pici> jamiejackson: uname -a
[20:05] <jamiejackson> Pici: what would i see there that would tell me that it was 64 bit?
[20:05] <aladinsane> is there anybody out there that actually got voipstunt to work on linux? if so how?
[20:05] <aladinsane> Im trying to configure X-lite right now with their proxy but unsuccessfully..
[20:05] <xTheGoat121x> What would cause a CPU to suddenly shoot up to nearly 100% usage?
[20:05] <greencookie> sid: http://rafb.net/p/M9i80W91.html
[20:05] <bakarat> triden99, it seems to be having troubles with python dependency
[20:06] <wdowning> greencookie: I was able to find an article that has the information that could help here: http://davidwatson.org/2007/05/broadcom-4306-on-feisty-fawn.html
[20:06] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: ever configured for X1300 or think we'll be able to do that?:) I've tried for about 2 months now.
[20:06] <triden99> bakarat: what's it looking for?
[20:06] <golem1> jamiejackson, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[20:06] <greencookie> wdowning: thnx ill read it.
[20:06] <satch5150> im running ubuntu(fiesty) on my home server - one of the things i run on it is ddclient - when I try to use the init script to start ddclient, I get this message - 'To run ddclient as a daemon, please set run_daemon to 'true' in /etc/default/ddclient' - but when I open that file, it is run_daemon="true" already there
[20:06] <bakarat> triden99, not sure, getting "error: dependency is not satisfiable : python"
[20:06] <kasan_sweat> Is there any way to install applications to an external drive, like the portableapps.com idea?
[20:06] <wdowning> greencookie: What it does it get the firmware information from an existing install program (I think for Windows drivers) and allow the kernel to use it ...
[20:07] <ni1s> Anyone got Linux SW RAID working from the ALT install cd, and then to have it boot up properly?
[20:07] <skun> salut
[20:07] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: Not that particular card, but we can try a few things and see.  Can't do anything but keep you with the standard driver where you are now...lol
[20:07] <morit1> hi girls and guys. How can I change the mounting point of /home ?
[20:07] <triden99> bakarat: do you have python installed on your system?
[20:07] <thiras> i have a problem. my dvd/cd writer(lg) doesn't write any media(with gnomebaker). error output(like first post) => http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-471181.html Any body help me?
[20:07] <Pici> jamiejackson: second to last item, or uname -m
[20:07] <bakarat> triden99, but i think i'm gonna just writ emy own tool, i need something very simple really, but can't find it anywhere
[20:07] <bakarat> triden99, ye, definatly, i have trac running etc
[20:07] <wdowning> greencookie: Your laptop is also referred to as a Dell Inspiron 1300 -- so any help for that laptop will probably help you as well ...
[20:07] <satch5150> what could possibly be wrong ?
[20:08] <greencookie> oh ok wdowning. thanks. im apt-getting bcm43xx-fwcutter now
[20:08] <triden99> bakarat: odd, I guess the package names in the require are not matching up.
[20:08] <jamiejackson> thx, Pici, but would you happen to know what it would report for 64 bit processors (e.g., mine shows i686, but what would it show for 64?)
[20:08] <greencookie> wdowning: i cant find bcm43xx-fwcutter anywhere in repo.. think i should install more repos? if so how?:)
[20:08] <triden99> bakarat: you could also try to force it and ignore the deps.  if the app won't run then just remove it.
[20:08] <Pici> jamiejackson: AMD64 or EMT64 iirc.
[20:08] <bakarat> triden99, maybe you know a tool that does ping "en masse" ? (so continuously ping clients to check connectivity)
[20:08] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: sounds good:)
[20:09] <jamiejackson> Pici, got it, close enough, thx
[20:09] <bakarat> triden99, by removing it, will it also remove the dependencies it installed that i don't need?
[20:09] <wdowning> greencookie: If you have synaptic, I found that makes it easier ...
[20:09] <greencookie> sid: how does my lspci look http://rafb.net/p/M9i80W91.html
[20:09] <satch5150> bakarat, ping does that :)
[20:09] <Pici> bakarat: I believe smokeping does that.
[20:09] <wdowning> greencookie: start up synaptic as root, and go to these menu items:
[20:09] <greencookie> wdowning: I cant find it in synaptic:)
[20:09] <satch5150> using the broadcast option
[20:09] <greencookie> how do I start synaptic as root? terminal>gksu synaptic?
[20:09] <bakarat> satch5150, for a large amount  of hosts at the same time? (with a few seconds intervals?)
[20:09] <wdowning> gcw: Settings / Repositories
[20:09] <bakarat> Pici, looking it up :)
[20:10] <Pici> bakarat: it makes graphs too
[20:10] <wdowning> Then check everything under "Ubuntu Software" :-)
[20:10] <triden99> bakarat: kinda, packages that were marked automatic will be available for uninstall in aptitude if nothing requires them anymore.
[20:10] <LeRoi> did anyone elses system get trashed today with the updates?
[20:10] <thiras> greencookie, can you help me?
[20:10] <_trine> do the madwifi drivers need to be patch for atheros injection?
[20:10] <_trine> in ubuntu
[20:10] <wdowning> gcw: that is correct ... unless your synaptic is already configured to allow you to make changes ..
[20:11] <_trine> do the madwifi drivers need to be patched for atheros injection in Ububtu?
[20:11] <bakarat> Pici, ah it does indeed seem to do what i need :D thanks :P
[20:11] <bakarat> triden99, i'll try this smoky thing first, as it seems to be in the ubuntu repositories hehe :P thanks for your help though :)
[20:11] <greencookie> thiras: whassup.
[20:11] <triden99> bakarat: np
[20:11] <satch5150> nevermind my prev question, figured it out - i do have one quick question though, when doing an upgrade via apt, would services that were upgraded typically be restarted after the upgrades are installed ?
[20:11] <rpedro> please, someone how to keep timestamps when moving files between fat32 partitions?
[20:12] <greencookie> wdowning: I checked everything under ubuntu software
[20:12] <thiras> i have a writing problem
[20:12] <thiras> my dvd/cd writer(lg) doesn't write any media(with gnomebaker). error output(like first post) => http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-471181.html
[20:12] <Rprp> If i try to watch an movie, i got a weird purple screen (http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/7999/schermafdrukmplayerab7.png), After a reboot its working, But, When i try again in about 3 hours, I got a gain that weird purple screen. (I got all codecs etc) Someone knows how to fix this?
[20:12] <wdowning> greencookie: after you change the repository list, you will need to click "Close", then "Reload" in the main screen in synaptic ..
[20:12] <LeRoi> after todays updates im getting an error about parsing line 1 of /usr/bin/dpkg
[20:12] <LeRoi> so im not able to use my system nor older kernels
[20:13] <wdowning> greencookie: then go to "search", then "linux-restricted-modules" .
[20:13] <bakarat> Pici, any idea how i boot the gui? its nowhere in the applications menu, and if i run it in terminal, it says its already running?
[20:13] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, what did u install today?
[20:13] <wdowning> greencookie: Also, make sure you DO NOT CLICK ON "Mark all updates" ... it sounds like that would break your ubuntu, from what I'm reading here ...
[20:13] <Pici> bakarat: no idea, I've never used it before.
[20:13] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: i just issued aptitude update and upgrade
[20:13]  * satch5150 feels his questions are getting lost in amongst the chatter :)
[20:13] <kane77> bakarat, should I contact you if I make an app like that?
[20:14] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: it errored and ive been searchin for answers since
[20:14] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, any package names that u remember?
[20:14] <bakarat> kane77, i need it tomorrow, so unless you do it really quick, it's not necessary :D
[20:14] <yalu> adept manager looks in *nothing* like the screenshots on http://kubuntu.org/%7Ejriddell/kubuntu-upgrade
[20:14] <bakarat> kane77, thanks for the offer though :P
[20:14] <LeRoi> some gnome specific
[20:14] <Pici> satch5150: Yes, services that were upgraded are often restarted in the post-upgrade steps
[20:14] <triden99> satch5150: the package scripts usually restarts the service
[20:14] <yalu> I don't have tabs in the repositories dialog
[20:14] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: gnome specific... i can get gdm to work now but it just sits at the login
[20:14] <golem1> compiz fusion or beryl for my 7.10 install w/ radeon 9600? suggestions, opinions? :)
[20:15] <greencookie> wdowning: I think I installed everything. I'll be back after a restart
[20:15] <misterecs> **PLEASE SOMEONE IM ME** // ** NEWBIE IN NEED OF SERIOUS HELP **
[20:15] <misterecs> **PLEASE SOMEONE IM ME** // ** NEWBIE IN NEED OF SERIOUS HELP **
[20:15] <Pici> !caps | misterecs
[20:15] <ubotu> misterecs: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[20:15] <wdowning> good luck greencookie :-)
[20:15] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, got gnome updates today my system is still working fine
[20:15] <golem1> say it again misterecs i think it's working
[20:15] <boris__> hi
[20:15] <misterecs> sorry, please someone help....
[20:15] <Pici> !ask | misterecs
[20:15] <ubotu> misterecs: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[20:15] <misterecs> !ask
[20:15] <_trine> do the madwifi drivers need to be patched for atheros injection in Ububtu?
[20:16] <triden99> LeRoi: what release are you using?
[20:16] <Pici> misterecs: Just ask the question here.
[20:16] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: 7.10
[20:16] <boris__> i got wolfenstein and i gotta tell it to use oss driver everytime i wanna start it, because settings arent preserved after reboot. how can i make setting permanent ?
[20:16] <satch5150> Pici, thanks
[20:16] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: would deleting /usr/bin/dpkg be a huge mistake? or would a new one be made
[20:16] <Johan-_> strange error: the files is showing when using ls, but I cant rm it. I cant cat it or use file on it. But afp i can view it
[20:16] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, 7.10 here 2
[20:17] <misterecs> I bought a DELL | UBUNTU machine, and [long story omitted], i formatted & installed UBUNTU from the disk DELL gave me, now I have almost NO devices recognized.  HELP.
[20:17] <boris__>  i got wolfenstein and i gotta tell it to use oss driver everytime i wanna start it, because settings arent preserved after reboot. how can i make setting permanent ?
[20:17] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, that's the package manager for Debian
[20:17] <help__> Hi,
[20:17] <misterecs> No LAN for a major one.
[20:17] <_trine> sudo thuna
[20:17] <mr_marvin> "no screen found" for xgl and glx (i change xorg.conf manually) - it works with vesa only... don't know what to do.
[20:17] <_trine> opps
[20:17] <ItchyHobo> ItchyHobo, dont know what deleting it might do
[20:17] <LordC> Hey
[20:17] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, especially on GNOME
[20:17] <bulmer> misterecs-> you just finished installation?
[20:18] <help__> I have got an problem. My rsolution has changed and i cant change it back through preferences screen resolution. Can i do it via terminal
[20:18] <misterecs> blumer | yes, i did.
[20:18] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: well when i try to run dpkg --configure -a i get an error about parsing line 1 of that
[20:18] <help__> It is 640 so its reallt annoying
[20:18] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: and that is as far as i can get
[20:18] <bulmer> misterecs-> are you connected to a router? ethernet connection?
[20:18] <amjad_> hello
[20:19] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, im still a newbie i can make guesses at best
[20:19] <LordC> I have a weird problem
[20:19] <amjad_> i am using Gutsy giddon but when i boot i can not get HAL initiliazed
[20:19] <LordC> only half my themes are showing up in the theme manager
[20:19] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: guess i'll just try to fsck and see what happens
[20:19] <LoudNLowNoma> help__: you can edit the .etc/X11/xorg.conf to set your screen resolution too
[20:20] <misterecs> BULMER-> Connected to a router & worked fine BEFORE the format but now, No LAN & nearly all devices in "Hardware Manager" say "UNKNOWN".
[20:20] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, do u have a disk prob too?
[20:20] <help__> and what should i cahange there?
[20:20] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: no, but i cannot think of anything else to do but reinstall
[20:20] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: maybe the parsing error is do to a disk error, i dunno
[20:20] <triden99> LeRoi: here's a suggestion, go grab the binary of dpkg and overwrite what you have in /usr/bin
[20:20] <bulmer> misterecs-> if you do ifconfig -a  what shows?
[20:21] <LeRoi> triden99: i'll give that a shot
[20:21] <_trine> do the madwifi drivers need to be patched for atheros injection in Ububtu? come on guys its a yes or no answer
[20:21] <misterecs> BULMER-> Hold one please, it's off, let me power up & i'll let you know. Okay?
[20:21] <LeRoi> triden99: know what verson 7.10 uses?
[20:21] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, ext FSs are pretty robust; unless the disks are physically damaged
[20:21] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, hope u made backups ;)
[20:21] <kazol2> Can I dual boot Ubuntu and Vista without any problems?
[20:21] <tantradnya> kazol2: yes surely
[20:21] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: /home is its own partition
[20:21] <LoudNLowNoma> help__: under Section "Screen" you should have the display modes listed.  You should see the one with your current resolution and you can change that to a higher one if your current video hardware/driver will support it
[20:21] <tomd123> kazol2: yes
[20:21] <QrX> Hi all
[20:21] <LeRoi> ItchyHobo: so just the packages are what i need to worry about
[20:21] <LordC> kazol2: Yeah
[20:21] <genii> help__: Forget hand editing the file. Instead just do:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg            <-- will only do the resolution settings part of the xserver reconfiguring
[20:22] <triden99> LeRoi: I'm running 7.10 and have version 1.14.5ubuntu16 of dpkg
[20:22] <tantradnya> kazol2: but make partition for linux (if not present) within windows
[20:22] <ItchyHobo> LeRoi, also make up a backup of the update package cache and restore them in synaptic so u dont have any unnecessary downloading to do
[20:22] <tomd123> kazol2: I had that set-up for a while on my laptop (5 months) until I just got rid of vi$ta all together because I haven't booted it up for about 3 months :)
[20:22] <QrX> is anybody running  BOINC here ?
[20:22] <LeRoi> triden99: ItchyHobo thanks
[20:22] <LoudNLowNoma> genii:Sorry, had some issues with the ATI drivers when I first tried installing it and got stuck in a terminal for a bit, so got familiar with editing that...lol
[20:22] <kazol2> tantradnya, tomd123, LordC: So I can just install Vista onto a partition half the size of the HD, then when I install Ubuntu it will automatically detect Vista and make a /boot/grub.conf file automatically to support both OSs?
[20:23] <tomd123> ya
[20:23] <LordC> Yes
[20:23] <sid> This process ifplugd starts whenever my system starts, I did "update-rc.d -f ifplugd remove", and it's not listed anywhere in /etc/rc?.d anymore, but it still tarts
[20:23] <sid> starts*
[20:23] <sid> Where else in the system can things be started from?
[20:23] <tantradnya> kazol2: yes thats correct
[20:23] <nareshov> where can I request for a particular pacakage?
[20:23] <genii> LoudNLowNoma: Thats OK :) Just for new users it's a bit daunting etc, the other is easier to understand and use etc
[20:23] <mr_marvin> is it normal that i cant startup with neither xlg nor glx?
[20:23] <nareshov> for inclusion of.. "

[20:24] <bulmer> misterecs-> can you paste in pastebin?
[20:24] <nareshov> danke
[20:24] <triden99> LeRoi: you'll need to use 'dpkg-deb --extract package.deb dir-to-extract-to' to get the dpkg binary out.
[20:24] <MilitantPotato> sid: you could install to a separate drive and choose between the two HD's as the primary boot drive in BIOS.
[20:24] <ItchyHobo> do we have an OCR program in Linux?
[20:24] <triden99> LeRoi: hopefully that exectuable isn't corrupt. :)
[20:24] <tantradnya> kazol2: but do install Vista first and then ubuntu or else Vista will overwrite MBR and only VISTA will boot
[20:24] <greencookie> wdowning!
[20:24] <disinterested> anyone found a fix for burning dvds?
[20:24] <kazol2> tantradnya: Ok

[20:29] <bulmer> misterecs-> okay  does  lspci |grep  network  or dmesg|grep network  show anykind of interface?
[20:29] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: Didn't realize how late it was getting and I'm afraid I'm gonna have to run for a bit.  Are you going to be on for a while?
[20:29] <disinterested> tantradnya: it was a intermittant sucess thing for me on feisty......... and seems like it has got worse vs. better
[20:29] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: Don't worry, I'm not far behind...hehe

[20:30] <nareshov> police?
[20:30] <bulmer> misterecs-> maybe just grep for net  not network
[20:30] <greencookie> LoudNLowNoma: I've to get my laundry as well.
[20:30] <LoudNLowNoma> greencookie: Alrighty.  I'll try and jump back on as soon as I can and I'll let you know.  We can see if we can get that ATI card working.

[20:31] <torkel_> ir4d0m: I deleted the partitions on the external drive, made it a GUID disk using Disk Utility. Booted the macbook on the livecd, installed ubuntu on the external usb-drive.... next time I hold down option when booting the mac no external drive is available booting from... only the internal drive and cdrom. Any tips?
[20:31] <LeRoi> triden99: so i DLed that file, used archive manager and got dpkg from the /usr/bin folder and mounted my / from the HDD
[20:31] <LeRoi> triden99: gonna copy that file and reboot... if ya dont hear from me then all is well :D
[20:31] <nareshov> :D
[20:31] <triden99> LeRoi: did you use dpkg-deb?
[20:31] <torkel_> ir4d0m: did you manually partition the external drive with the ubuntu installer or did you "use entire disk"?
[20:32] <LeRoi> triden99: no i just used archive manager and looked through the .deb and found what file ive been having problems with
[20:32] <DrCortex> lol why does my floppy drive turn on while I open programs
[20:33] <DrCortex> and files
[20:33] <DrCortex> lol
[20:33] <triden99> LeRoi: you used the easier way.. :)  copying the file over should fix it.
[20:33] <greencookie> Someone help me figure out why my wireless connection still isnt working?
[20:33] <LeRoi> i would have gone cli if i wasnt running the liveCD
[20:33] <nareshov> DrCortex, you still use a floppy drive?
[20:33] <DrCortex> ya
[20:33] <nareshov> :O
[20:33] <DrCortex> they're faster then disks and don't get scratched
[20:33] <DrCortex> floppys
[20:34] <DrCortex> and they're rewritable
[20:34] <nareshov> o_o
[20:34] <nanonyme> eh, what?
[20:34] <ffm> Help! I was just running my OS normaly yesterday, when I started to be unable to launch applications.
[20:34] <ffm> I rebooted, and then got the error "too many levels of symlinks" while I booted.
[20:34] <ffm> Nothing starts but recoverymode, and then I can not run any non-built-into-bash commands.
[20:34] <blahblahx> okay so im making a remaster of ubuntu that has a limited software selection. the livecd works great, but when I install it to the HD, ubiquity installs all kinds of junk like language packs, open office, etc...    How do I prevent this?
[20:35] <nanonyme> DrCortex, your claim that floppy drive would be faster than a cd drive sounds ridiculous :)
[20:35] <ffm> blahblahx: do a server install and then apt-get what you need.
[20:35] <moonwatcher> hi
[20:35] <DrCortex> It is for me
[20:35] <nanonyme> sounds like a bad cd drive
[20:35] <moonwatcher> i managed to compile paranoia and use it to rip a wav file out of a cd but how do i get a cue file, CLI please...
[20:35] <help__> does anyone know, what should i change in etc/X11/xorg.conf to change resolution
[20:36] <blahblahx> ffm: no its for the masses
[20:36] <DrCortex> and why does ubuntu put a folder 'lost+found' on the disk by itself that's empty and I can't delete
[20:36] <noob69> hello everyone
[20:36] <blahblahx> ffm: so why does ubiquity install this stuff if it isnt on my livecd?
[20:36] <ffm> help__: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=83973
[20:36] <ffm> blahblahx: no idea.
[20:37] <noob69> strange now my 'Add/Remove...' and 'Update manager' apps are now working
[20:37] <blahblahx> ffm: are there config files that tell ubiquity what to install?
[20:38] <Wulfie> hey folks - I think I've found a problem with how permissions are being done in Gutsy Gibbon - where do I report it?

[20:38] <noob69> any suggestion on what good HTML editors to use on gnome, hopefully something similar to dreamweaver
[20:39] <ffm> blahblahx: sorry, no idea
[20:39] <DrCortex> wikipedia says theres a floppy disk that can hold 240 MB called a LS-240 lol
[20:39] <DrCortex> why haven't I ever seen any of those

[20:44] <erUSUL> DrCortex: did you format them as etx[23] ??
[20:44] <Wulfie> triden99: its in how perms are actually working
[20:44] <DrCortex> idk
[20:44] <kyled185> JML1, concurrent booting is fscked up
[20:44] <DrCortex> lol if i format them this one way windows can't open them
[20:44] <LordC> Can anyone help me with Themes installation problems?
[20:44] <bulmer> misterecs-> it doesnt look like your nic card is detected, go into your bios and make sure it is active then reboot
[20:44] <triden99> Wulfie: what seems wrong to you?
[20:45] <JML1> kyled : whats that mean?
[20:45] <Billies> KDE runs like it isn't running from hardware
[20:45] <ryanakca> how can I print a file from the command line if the printer is already set up in CUPS?
[20:45] <misterecs> BULMER --> will do, back in a bit.
[20:45] <bulmer> ryanakca-> use  lp or lpr
[20:45] <kyled185> JML1, it's an option you can enable that speeds up the boot process on multi cpu computers
[20:45] <erUSUL> DrCortex: mkext23 will create this folder on every block device it formats
[20:45] <Wulfie> triden99: take this case - create a group such as mygroup and add your user,  create a file: specialfile and do: sudo chown root:mygroup specialfile then sudo chmod g+rwxs specialfile
[20:45] <kyled185> JML1, it's an easy enough fix and most people wont ever notice it
[20:45] <Wulfie> triden99: then if you use your regular user to attempt to change permissions on the file it fails
[20:46] <JML1> kyled : i dont have any multi-CPU PCs
[20:46] <kyled185> JML1, then you're fine
[20:46] <erUSUL> ryanakca: man lp (lp -P printername file iirc)
[20:46] <JML1> i just ran the install off the live disk tho, and got Buffer i/O error on Device fd0, logical block 0

[20:55] <cyrano> erUSUL: what do you mean by sensible options?
[20:55] <cyrano> I don't know what the right options are?
[20:55] <DrCortex> and I exited and went back to the floppy drive and the ifle was still there
[20:55] <Wulfie> triden99: well if you do this in the python interpreter: fp = file( "specialfile", "w+" )  it should work and works on edgy and other distros
[20:55] <LeRoi> triden99: it is still unusable
[20:55] <Wulfie> triden99: but fails on gutsy
[20:55] <babu> erusul : is there any command line to see
[20:55] <DrCortex> even though the disk wasn't in there
[20:55] <DrCortex> O.o
[20:56] <IR4> kyled185: I don't thinks is the tracker process... It's a couple of weeks I installed Gutsy 64 bits
[20:56] <The_Joe_> Please, my OS has gone
[20:56] <Wulfie> triden99: you end up with an exception trying that
[20:56] <erUSUL> cyrano: well you have an ati choose the ati or vesa driver and you know the size of your lcd (i for sure don't know)
[20:56] <kyled185> IR4, hmmm, well in that case I'm not sure what could be eating up memory
[20:56] <__mikem> The_Joe_, what do you mean gone?
[20:56] <The_Joe_> _mikem: Scroll up
[20:56] <triden99> Wulfie: not sure.  never noticed the difference.
[20:56] <erUSUL> babu: hostname as i already told you
[20:57] <The_Joe_> _mikem: Well it's still there, I just can't boot
[20:57] <komputes> Does anyone know which package takes care of brightness?
[20:57] <IR4> kyled185: I read something about allocation problems in 64 versions, do you know anything?
[20:57] <triden99> LeRoi: what is in that file on your system?
[20:57] <MilitantPotato> Can dapper be upgraded to Gutsy via update manager?
[20:57] <greencookie> Can anyone help me troubleshoot my wireless card? its for dell inspiron b130
[20:57] <babu> erusul : yes, but i want to see in command line,
[20:57] <__mikem> You are going to need to find someone to help you fix your partitions
[20:57] <LeRoi> triden99: aptitude tells me that it doesnt exist
[20:57] <greencookie> MilitantPotato: yes but u cant upgrade directly to gutsy
[20:57] <cyrano> erUSUL: How do i know if i should choose ATI or VEsa driver?
[20:57] <MilitantPotato> greencookie: how would it be done?
[20:57] <erUSUL> MilitantPotato: no, directly you have to do 6.06>6.10>7.04>7.10
[20:58]  * yalu is getting irritated by apt-proxy
[20:58] <misterecs> BULMER --> i'm back up, what should i run now?
[20:58] <kyled185> IR4, I've never used a 64bit system.  try running gnome-system-monitor to see what process is
[20:58] <The_Joe_> _mikem: Great.
[20:58] <The_Joe_> -.-
[20:58] <MilitantPotato> apt-get distupgrade?
[20:58] <erUSUL> cyrano: try ati first if that doesn't work go for vesa
[20:58] <greencookie> MilitantPotato: first from dapper to edgy then edgy to fiesty then fiesty to gutsy
[20:58] <IR4> kyled185: it's not a process, that's the point...
[20:58] <triden99> LeRoi: what do you get if you 'less' that file?
[20:58] <erUSUL> !upgrade | MilitantPotato
[20:58] <ubotu> MilitantPotato: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[20:58] <misterecs> BULMER --> the only thing "diabled" in BIOS was the "ROM boot option", so i enabled it.
[20:58] <komputes> MilitantPotato & greencookie: Can you tell me how to do that major update without re-downloading the new ISO?
[20:58] <kyled185> IR4, well that
[20:58] <komputes> Does anyone know which package takes care of brightness?
[20:58] <kyled185> IR4, is messed up, I wouldn't know anything else
[20:59] <greencookie> komputes: System>administration>update manager
[20:59] <MoreAllLess> Anyone know how to re-install network in gutsy?
[20:59] <misterecs> BULMER --> actually, my startup seems to have FROZEN at the initial "ubuntu" splash-screen.
[20:59] <LeRoi> theres an available-old
[20:59] <ryanakca> bulmer, erUSUL: thanks
[20:59] <The_Joe_> _mikem: Can you not suggest how I might be able to do it?
[20:59] <The_Joe_> I have tried adding a new linux-swap
[20:59] <agar3s> hello everyone
[21:00] <DrCortex> i peed in your pool yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
[21:00] <greencookie> someone please help me configure my wireless.
[21:00] <MoreAllLess> Hey agar3s
[21:00] <__mikem> The_Joe_ you said you were messing around with your swap partition, what exactly did you do to it?
[21:00] <erUSUL> !wifi | greencookie
[21:00] <ubotu> greencookie: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[21:00] <agar3s> does anyone know how to change the "vladi" part in here:  [agar3s]<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:00] <agar3s> in xchat
[21:00] <erUSUL> greencookie: network manager worked out of the box for me...
[21:00] <The_Joe_> _mikem: Well I was actually trying to install Windows to Dual Boot, I had learnt how to do it previously, doing so deleted the Swap partition
[21:00] <agar3s> vladi is my ubuntu username
[21:00] <triden99> LeRoi: so the file is missing?
[21:01] <LeRoi> yes
[21:01] <brobostigon> hi, i just ran top in cli, and it shows network manager as using over 94% cpu time, whats its problem, and why would it use so much cpu time??
[21:01] <LeRoi> triden99: im gonna copy the old and try that out
[21:01] <__mikem> The_Joe_, linux needs the swap partition to be there
[21:01] <The_Joe_> _mikem: I know, that's why I tried adding a new one
[21:01] <brobostigon> i am not even using network manager
[21:01] <bulmer> misterecs-> re install to completion
[21:01] <triden99> LeRoi: on my system, available and available-old are identicle.
[21:01] <erUSUL> brobostigon: some bug
[21:01] <Andycasss> how to switch user in console?
[21:01] <erUSUL> |bug | brobostigon
[21:01] <Reng> how come i cant drag an a compressed file out of and into a different drive? i used to be able to do it.
[21:01] <kyled185> Andycasss, su <username>
[21:01] <komputes> greencookie: I just get package updates, but I don't know if the kernel and ubuntu version can be updated through update manager, Can it?
[21:01] <brobostigon> do i remove it??
[21:01] <erUSUL> Andycasss: whiout login out?
[21:02] <MoreAllLess> I'm looking for apt-get ****** to reinstall network.  I messed up some files.
[21:02] <DrCortex> i peed in your pool yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
[21:02] <komputes> komputes
[21:02] <__mikem> The_Joe_ I am willing to bet that when you deleted it, the MBR was not updated, that might have something to do with it.
[21:02] <The_Joe_> __mikem: Yes it was deleted I said that
[21:02] <agar3s> does anyone know how to change the "vladi" part in here:  [agar3s]<EMAIL_ADDRESS>i know this is something called IDENTD? ... how do i change it? i don't want people on IRC to know what username i use in ubuntu... (vladi is my username)
[21:02] <greencookie> komputes: yes, thats what I did and I have gutsy now.
[21:02] <MoreAllLess> My network doesn't work but don't know how to install the network managers.
[21:02] <agar3s> is there any other way to change that thing?
[21:02] <nettermensch> hi :)
[21:02] <The_Joe_> __mikem: I immediately stopped installation as soon as I found out the swap was deleted
[21:02] <agar3s> or must i make a new user?
[21:03] <komputes> greencookie: cool
[21:03] <tuxthepenguin> is it possible to install ubuntu to a fat32
[21:04] <__mikem> The_Joe_ basicly hozed your system. I wouldn't be surprised if it was beyond recovery. YOu are going to need to format and reinstall. I hope you have a backup.
[21:04] <DrX> why does it say "operation not supported" on some but not all files and subdirectories when I run a cp out to a network share or USB thumb drive?
[21:04] <cyrano> erUSUL: The configuring exits after i have chosen driver and video modes... i thought there would be more options. Also neither ATI or VESA works
[21:04] <tuxthepenguin> is it possible to install ubuntu to a fat32
[21:04] <hottium> tuxthepenguin: propably but not wery wise
[21:04] <The_Joe_> __mikem: I can always make one...
[21:04] <agar3s> so noone cares to help ;D
[21:04] <agar3s> or noone knows the answer to my question?
[21:04] <erUSUL> cyrano: try this instead 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[21:04] <nettermensch> whats the question @ agar
[21:04] <__mikem> The_Joe_ how do you make a backup of a system that you are currently unable to boot into?
[21:04] <genii> tuxthepenguin: Possible yes, but not officially supported. google for wubi
[21:04] <thodoras> 1
[21:05] <The_Joe_> __mikem: It's a simple mount /media/disk
[21:05] <tuxthepenguin> why is it not wise to install to fat32
[21:05] <cyrano> erUSUL: Autodetect?
[21:05] <nettermensch> fat32 didn support user rights ^^
[21:05] <__mikem> The_Joe_ if you say so...
[21:05] <MoreAllLess> Anyone know how to fix or reinstall the network in gutsy?\
[21:05] <The_Joe_> __mikem: I've just done it, in fact I'm moving my home folder to USB now
[21:05] <erUSUL> cyrano: that's without autodetect iirc
[21:06] <agar3s> nettermensch: how do i change the ident in Xchat... it's set as my username in ubuntu...and i don't want ppl to know who am i ;D
[21:06] <__mikem> Okay good. So are you using a live CD?
[21:06] <genii> tuxthepenguin: fat32 is not linux native filesystem. also does not support user/group permissions.also no files over 4Gb supported. Needs defragging. etc
[21:06] <agar3s> nettermensch:  how do i change it to smth else?
[21:06] <Varaz[NA]> Hello, I found this pkg on the ubuntu website upslug2_11-1_i386.deb How can I install that on my ubuntu system ?
[21:06] <The_Joe_> __mikem: I did say that as well
[21:06] <bullgard4>  What is meant by 'to register an interrupt handler' in the dmesg "The 'nobody cared' error message is reported when a device is raising interrupts while the actual driver has not yet registered the interrupt handler."?
[21:07] <nettermensch> oh ^^ .. i dont know.. ive installed xchat ^^ its something like this..
[21:07] <RoAkSoAx> Varazir: dpkg -i packaname.deb
[21:07] <cyrano> erUSUL: I'm really unsure of the next steps. Are there any howtos on this in the forums?
[21:07] <__mikem> Okay, fine, forgive me for not wanting to look back through 300 lines of scroll. Just go ahead and do the reinstall, and when you feel the need to dual boot your system, seek expert help next time.
[21:07] <Varazir> RoAkSoAx thanks

[21:07] <The_Joe_> __mikem: I did that. I did say I had found how first. I have done it before.
[21:08] <agar3s> nettermensch: ok another question ;D what's that command to change application settings...such as ports in bittorrent client and so
[21:08] <agar3s> i forgot it
[21:08] <agar3s> it opens a window with a list of applications
[21:08] <agar3s> and you can change different values
[21:08] <__mikem> The_Joe_ okay, if you are making the backup and planning to reinstall linux, why do you need our help?
[21:08] <MoreAllLess> I'm looking to fix my network in gutsy.  Hoping to just run the installation (apt-get something) to fix it.
[21:08] <MoreAllLess> Files were corrupted and need to fix network.
[21:08] <nettermensch> i dont know what you mean ^^ ive debian installed.. ^^
[21:09] <nettermensch> and no program which is like yours
[21:09] <nettermensch> ;)
[21:09] <agar3s> so why r u on ubuntu then?
[21:09] <agar3s> ;D
[21:09] <agar3s> isn't ubuntu like debian?
[21:09] <myc> hey
[21:09] <florian><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:09] <nettermensch> ubuntu is a debian like system ;)
[21:10] <florian> ya ki la ?
[21:10] <myc> but it seems to work differently in some senses :)
[21:10] <agar3s> i use ubuntu
[21:10] <agar3s> so what's the difference?
[21:10] <agar3s> i use debian too
[21:10] <agar3s> ;D
[21:10] <myc> does anyone know why, when I try to pipe output of a shell script into another program, ubuntu doesn't read the io?
[21:10] <nettermensch> ;) i think the userfriendly scripts and modifications are the differences ^^
[21:10] <myc> i'm trying to run something like
[21:10] <nettermensch> and its newer ^^ kernel versions
[21:10] <myc> # ./shell_script.sh | ./program
[21:11] <myc> the shell script just echo's some different commands
[21:11] <myc> to feed into the program
[21:11] <cyrano> erUSUL: I don't understand... the live cd did work perfectly. But not after install... this has happened before!
[21:11] <myc> but the pipe doesn't seem to work
[21:11] <myc> but if i run this on debian, it works fine
[21:12] <nettermensch> bye people ^^
[21:12] <francisan> Hi! can anyone help me?
[21:13] <myc> no
[21:13] <myc> this channel is useless for help
[21:13] <francisan> hum...
[21:13] <myc> good luck
[21:13] <Varazir> RoAkSoAx Can't finde the pkg :(
[21:13] <MoreAllLess> Anyone know how to reinstall network in gutsy?
[21:13] <RoAkSoAx> Varazir: have you downloaded it?
[21:13] <justthisguy> francisan: heh, not unless you ask a question :)
[21:14] <komputes> What package takes care of Brightness?
[21:14] <MoreAllLess> myc, those who know probably don't log on to answer questions.
[21:14] <erUSUL> cyrano: neither do I :S sorry of not being of much help
[21:14] <komputes> My Laptop is not responding to the brightness Fn keys
[21:14] <MoreAllLess> it's only those who need help.
[21:14] <LeRoi> triden99: well aptitude finally got to finish doin it's thing... but the fonts went corrupt and now i cannot read the next error
[21:14] <Oli```> How do you install compiz themes under Gutsy?
[21:15] <LeRoi> triden99: so i guess i'll give in and just reinstall :/
[21:15] <DrX> why does it say "operation not supported" on some of the files and subdirectories when I run a cp out to a network share or usb thumb drive with FAT but not to the local drive?
[21:15] <Varazir> RoAkSoAx no I haven't,
[21:16] <francisan> anyone know how to fix a coax sound output?
[21:16] <RoAkSoAx> Varazir: so use: sudo apt-get install packaname (ie. package on packages.ubuntu.com let say is like amsn-1-2-3.deb, packagename should be somethin like amsn)
[21:16] <triden99> LeRoi: the fonts on the terminal window?
[21:16] <LeRoi> triden99: yea, on tty1
[21:17] <tatterdemalian> I'm really learning to hate Ubuntu... if Vista wasn't intent on violating every damn thing I own, I'd switch back in a heartbeat
[21:17] <triden99> LeRoi: reset will reset your terminal back to normal
[21:17] <MoreAllLess> Francisan, what type of interface are you using
[21:17] <Varazir> RoAkSoAx Okay thanks :)
[21:17] <DrCortex> there needs to be mIRC for ubuntu
[21:18] <RoAkSoAx> Varazir: no prob. :)
[21:18] <LeRoi> mIRC sucks
[21:18] <nareshov> yeah
[21:18] <francisan> ubuntu 7.10 64 bit
[21:18] <triden99> agree
[21:18] <tatterdemalian> There is no information about anything, anywhere, and whenever I ask for assistance the answer is always "duh, buy a new computer, tard"
[21:18] <LeRoi> DrCortex: try xchat
[21:18] <DrCortex> I am
[21:18] <DrCortex> it sucks
[21:18] <MoreAllLess> Yeah, but what about the sound card, or audio interface?

[21:19] <LeRoi> DrCortex: /ignore person all
[21:19] <rambo3>  /IGNORE name ALL
[21:19] <DrCortex> ya that won;t work

[21:19] <__mikem> lol @ LeRoi
[21:19] <LeRoi> :D
[21:19] <komputes> mIRC sucks, but i'm using  Pidgin for IRC and it doesn't notify me in a tab when people say my name and talk to me, so I have to go looking in the whole chat looking for when they sent me a line.
[21:19] <komputes> sucks
[21:19] <LeRoi> triden99: ok gonna try that out
[21:19] <Varazir> Nice support channel I have to say :) ( not getting the read-the-faq in your face when you ask a question Well I'm off have a nice day all
[21:19] <DrCortex> ya with mIRC, I could just right click someones name and choose ignore
[21:20] <DrCortex> in Xchat nothign makes sense
[21:20] <triden99> I guess its format and go back to windows then...
[21:20] <Kopfgeldjaeger> n8

[21:21] <MoreAllLess> Are you trying to send the default sounds to the coax?  Or a specific program?
[21:21] <jorgerosa> hi KIAaze
[21:21] <francisan> any sound would be good
[21:21] <francisan> none work
[21:22] <pike_> arkatis: try pkill gnome-panel  in terminal and the try to lauch from menu again does it work?
[21:22] <MoreAllLess> What are you plugging into on the other end of the coax?
[21:22] <sahaj_> how do I reset linux to factory defaults? everything.

[21:24] <francisan> yes, I had multiple devices hooked up
[21:24] <greencookie> Is there a way I can make ubuntu use default drivers for my wireless adapter?
[21:24] <pike_> arkatis: yeah i thought it may be a problem with gnome-panel other than that i dunno
[21:24] <desertc> francisan: The channels might be muted.
[21:24] <jorgerosa> KIAaze: np, you are free to update the trunk by now, as you wich, i talked with DG
[21:24] <pike_> !blacklist | greencookie might help
[21:24] <ubotu> greencookie might help: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add ┬½ blacklist <modulename> ┬╗ to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type ┬½ sudo update-initramfs -u ┬╗
[21:25] <francisan> i can also use the normal audio plugs if i need to

[21:27] <amrcidiot> how to i make it so gtk-config is in the library path?

[21:28] <pike_> amrcidiot: you need dev packages for gtk+ i think you can look at the lib path by 'echo LD_LIBRARYPATH' but i dont think thats it
