[07:15] <intelikey> axident the install cd or live cd for ubuntu, either will let you reinstall grub
[07:15] <st1ckly78> hello i need some help please
[07:15] <axident> Hmm... ok any suggestions on restoring the NTLDR?
[07:16] <BellaireLinuxN3r> st1ckly78: hiya! just ask and someone here's bound to know what's wrong
[07:16] <intelikey> axident have you visited the wiki on that issue ?
[07:16] <intelikey> !grub | axident
[07:16] <ubotu> axident: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:16] <Snowman> no wireless users in the house?
[07:16] <st1ckly78> i am trying to get my .avi files to play in vlc but all i get is sound what else do i need
[07:16] <intelikey> !wifi | Snowman
[07:16] <ubotu> Snowman: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:16] <Snowman> intelikey: yeah, read that.
[07:17] <Snowman> it says I should see a list of wireless lans.  I don't.  hence my question :)
[07:17] <intelikey> best i can do ya.
[07:17] <Snowman> ah :\
[07:17] <BellaireLinuxN3r> st1ckly78: do you know the codec for your .avi file? It might be one that VLC doesn't have
[07:17] <Snowman> I mean, it _IS_ connected, but I'd like to be able to connect to others without having to manually config each time.
[07:17] <st1ckly78> no
[07:17] <axident> thanks intelikey
[07:18] <intelikey> Snowman if you can translate kde to gnome  gnome to kde commands you can ask in  #ubuntu
[07:18] <intelikey> axident not at all
[07:18] <st1ckly78> all i know is i have installed the GStreamer ffmpeg video plugin but that got me the sound only
[07:19] <Alonea> axident: short of rewriting it yourself, I dont know, try googling restoring the ntldr.
[07:19] <intelikey> vlc-plugin-ggi - GGI video output plugin for VLC
[07:19] <intelikey> vlc-plugin-glide - Glide video output plugin for VLC
[07:19] <intelikey> vlc-plugin-sdl - SDL video and audio output plugin for VLC
[07:19] <st1ckly78> cool
[07:20] <axident> hmm... i think I have some ideas to play with now... thanks for the info!
[07:20] <Alonea> axident: no problem. we try
[07:21] <Alonea> axident: worst case you end up reinstalling windows and then fixing grub. I ended up doing that. good luck!
[07:21] <axident> I am sure I will be back... hehe...
[07:22] <intelikey> axident from what i hear (hear say only cause i don't do windows) windows may give lots of problems if not on the first primary drive&partition   you may have to reinstall it there and install your linux where ever is left.
[07:22] <intelikey> i guess i'm too late on that
[07:22] <BellaireLinuxN3r> intelikey: you're probably right
[07:22] <intelikey> i lag
[07:22] <BellaireLinuxN3r> i'm lucky - I have two drives, so I just installed linux on the other drive
[07:23] <BellaireLinuxN3r> windows is a spoiled brat :)
[07:23] <intelikey> i have 8 drives in this box...
[07:25] <intelikey> looks like the noon crowd has died down...
[07:25] <BellaireLinuxN3r> lol
[07:26] <icecruncher> lol, I'll make up for it
[07:26] <intelikey> go ahead, i'm not goin' to answer you anyway
[07:26] <intelikey> :)
[07:26] <icecruncher> can anyone tell me how to remotely limit the speed of another computer on the same network? :)
[07:27] <Alonea> is there a command you can do the delete instead of sending to trash?
[07:27] <intelikey> traffic shaping  ?
[07:27] <BellaireLinuxN3r> there's probably something in the router that you can change...maybe...:)
[07:27] <icecruncher> yeah, the other comp uses way to much bandwidth
[07:28] <intelikey> Alonea yes you can enable delete in the menu on konqueror  or use the hot keys   or use a konsole and rm it
[07:28] <Alonea> intelikey: ok, what is the hotkey for it?
[07:28] <kai> can some one help, I was banned from this channel for like months and I didn't know know
[07:28] <intelikey> icecruncher well not because of the pun eariler but i can't answer that.....    idk.
[07:28] <kai> how can I reserve my nick
[07:29] <icecruncher> intelikey: k  lol
[07:29] <intelikey> Alonea shift del   i think  but it is adjustable
[07:29] <Alonea> intelikey: thats fine. it works
[07:29] <intelikey> !register | kai
[07:29] <ubotu> kai: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[07:30] <kai> thank you
[07:30] <intelikey> not at all
[07:30] <Alonea> intelikey: what can I use to partition again?
[07:31] <Alonea> intelikey: like, either in the cmd prompt, or a gui.
[07:31] <kai> I think the first time there was something worng with my install how can i get my weather bug and my 'geyes' back
[07:31] <intelikey> gparted  qtparted   cfdiak   parted  fdisk
[07:31] <intelikey> take your pick
[07:32] <Alonea> intelikey: is there a way I can split a drive without deleting off the contents?
[07:32] <icecruncher> kai, add them as apps in the task bar
[07:32] <intelikey> geyes ?    isn't that gnomish
[07:32] <icecruncher> intelikey: probably
[07:32] <kai> There not there
[07:33] <intelikey> Alonea if the free space is consolidated at one end, yes
[07:33] <kai> Thats why I think the first time I upgraded something went wrong
[07:33] <Alonea> intelikey: ok. how would I do this? does cfdisk do it, or should I use another?
[07:33] <kai> I had all that stuff and I had this HUGE memory leak issue when I ran netbeans for extended periods
[07:33] <intelikey> xeyes - X client - xeyes
[07:33] <Alonea> kai: I dunno, but I have missing applets as well when I upgraded. Like the moon thing...
[07:34] <intelikey> tuxeyes - a fancy version of xeyes
[07:34] <ForgeAus> hey intelikey :)
[07:34] <kai> Alonea: Its weird I never get the same install when I have installed kubuntu
[07:34] <intelikey> Alonea ummmm i think i'd use gparted for that
[07:34] <intelikey> ForgeAus
[07:35] <Druntar> ok it's still at 64%
[07:35] <Alonea> intelikey: ok, will try that
[07:35] <Druntar> should this be taking so long?
[07:35] <hitmanWilly> Druntar, what are you doing?
[07:36] <kai> This install is good
[07:36] <Alonea> intelikey: I have a large external hdd and I have some backup info that I want to keep, but then I want the rest of the 100 or so gigs to be in a separate partition
[07:36] <intelikey> Druntar go walk the dog,  or talk to a hooker or something for a while   and see if it finishes....
[07:36] <kai> I had huge probs Idunno what happnedw/ the other one
[07:36] <intelikey> hitmanWilly he's installing
[07:36] <hitmanWilly> ahhh, ok...
[07:37] <BellaireLinuxN3r> did it hang on hardware detection?
[07:37] <intelikey> BellaireLinuxN3r after writing files... 64%
[07:37] <mehmet> hi
[07:38] <mehmet> i wan to install all packges on Kubuntu 7.04 dvd
[07:38] <mehmet> how to this?
[07:38] <kai> I luv u linux
[07:38] <kai> :)
[07:39] <mehmet> i was download some packages before this installation
[07:39] <mehmet> i was format my pc and installed new kubuntu from dvd
[07:39] <mehmet> now i want to install my packages
[07:40] <mehmet> but there are 590 packages
[07:40] <intelikey> mehmet i don't think you can.   some will conflict with others and you will have to choose one or the other....   but    for Q in [a-z]  ;do apt-get install $Q* ;done      should try to do it.
[07:40] <mehmet> what the install command?
[07:40] <intelikey> oh wait.  local.
[07:40] <mehmet> intelikey:  i made but it is not ok :(
[07:41] <danny500> Hey, if I update my computer to the nex Ubuntu from 6.10 will it totally erase everything that is on the drive or just update the kernal to 7.04?
[07:41] <icecruncher> danny500, it'll  update all old packages
[07:41] <intelikey> not the best idea to try to automate dpkg -i *    but you can try it.
[07:41] <Alonea> danny500: shouldn't erase anything on the drive if you do the upgrade command. I didn't loose anything
[07:41] <icecruncher> danny500, no erase :)
[07:42] <intelikey> in the dir of the packages
[07:42] <intelikey> mehmet ^
[07:42] <danny500> ok, then I'm going to 7.04 now starting now :) tired of waiting for the disks to come in
[07:42] <danny500> lol
[07:42] <danny500> thanks guy's brb switching to 7.04 O_O
[07:43] <intelikey> danny500 it will over write most of the "system & application " files  but no erase
[07:43] <icecruncher> intelikey, he's offline
[07:43] <mehmet> intelikey:  ok it is running :)
[07:43] <BellaireLinuxN3r> lol
[07:44] <intelikey> icecruncher yes his signoff and my post are almost at the same time on my screen.
[07:44] <icecruncher> intelikey, ahh, not here
[07:44] <icecruncher> lol
[07:44] <intelikey> yes i lag
[07:45] <icecruncher> who doesn't
[07:45] <icecruncher> lol
[07:45] <lego> I am new to kubuntu.  How do I explore files, access my CD drive to copy files to the hard drive?
[07:45] <ForgeAus> exploring files is done by a program called konqueror
[07:45] <intelikey> konqueror
[07:45] <lego> I have been against Linux for a long time, but I am starting to lean towds it now that I can actually get it working.
[07:45] <ForgeAus> copying is also done there
[07:46] <intelikey> could use mozilla
[07:46] <BellaireLinuxN3r> you need to mount your cd first
[07:46] <Alonea> lego: Konqueror is the file explorer. you can access it through the little computer icon next to the K Menu (at least thats how mine is set up)
[07:46] <ForgeAus> (note you will need permissions to copy anywhere other than to somewhere in /home/<user>/ directory
[07:46] <intelikey> BellaireLinuxN3r or use the kio slave
[07:46] <lego> I see CDROM0 CDROM1 FLOPPY
[07:46] <ForgeAus> Alonea, its a blue ball icon, not a computer one
[07:46] <icecruncher> lego, konweror is also a internet browser, just in case you need it :)
[07:46] <ForgeAus> (the computer icon is either a terminal one or the system menu)
[07:46] <Alonea> ForgeAus: oh, its a computer icon for me.
[07:47] <Alonea> ForgeAus: has the list of home, storage media, etc.
[07:47] <BellaireLinuxN3r> yeah, that's how it is on mine too alonea
[07:47] <ForgeAus> (it also has a gear around it btw)
[07:47] <ForgeAus> the list one is a system menu... thats not konqueror
[07:47] <lego> How do I mount the drives?  Clicking on then does nothing.
[07:47] <ForgeAus> but you can use it to start konqueror
[07:47] <Alonea> ForgeAus: ok, I didnt say the computer icon was the K Menu icon with the gear and is blue
[07:48] <BellaireLinuxN3r> right click, there should be a option of "mount"
[07:48] <ForgeAus> (ie the way you view places, storage media, etc starts konqueror to do so)
[07:48] <intelikey> lego  in kde   learn to right click everything.
[07:48] <BellaireLinuxN3r> make sure you have a CD in it or it'll complain at you :)
[07:48] <BellaireLinuxN3r> intelikey: pretty much that's how KDE works lol
[07:48] <Snowman> ok, this is getting annoying.  Still having no luck whatsoever with this new version of the network manager.
[07:49] <Snowman> anyone have any experience with wireless and knetworkmanager, I could use a hand. :\
[07:49] <ForgeAus> does the computer icon your talking about have a kubuntu logo on the screen?
[07:49] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I was saying how to access files and where the system menu icon is located, which for me, is right next to the K Menu icon.
[07:49] <lego> Nothing saying mount.
[07:49] <BellaireLinuxN3r> lego: also if you don't like single click to open things, you might want to change that, since it's on by default
[07:49] <lego> Says its a folder.
[07:49] <lego> I like single click.
[07:49] <ForgeAus> (Alonea I think thats pretty close to the default setting)
[07:50] <intelikey> "the pointy clicky thingy"
[07:50] <BellaireLinuxN3r> lego: okay, that's really weird
[07:50] <ForgeAus> hehe intelikey, right click is much like microsoft windows anywya
[07:50] <Alonea> ForgeAus: ...I am just saying you misunderstood what I said...
[07:50] <lego> I clicked on konkerer, then storage media
[07:51] <lego> excuse my bad spelling.
[07:51] <intelikey> ForgeAus yeah but that don't mean i'd want it to not do anything on right click.
[07:51] <intelikey> like that other desktop does
[07:51] <ForgeAus> Actually Alonea, I think I was being kinda technical, it just sounded wrong when you said computer icon because I know what konqi's icon looks like
[07:51] <Alonea> lego: yeha, storage media is all your cd, usb, and other hard drives. If you click on Home, that is sorta equivalent to My Documents
[07:51] <icecruncher> anybody using pidgin 2 yet? :]
[07:51] <Snowman> intelikey: could the manual configuration of the interface be what's causing it to not have a list of wireless lans?
[07:52] <intelikey> Snowman i really have no idea.   when it comes to wireless and networking in general, i'm dumb as a box of rocks
[07:53] <Snowman> ah, sorry to bug you :)
[07:53] <Alonea> icecruncher: i think I am. you having any problems connecting?
[07:53] <Snowman> kinda wishing I'd stuck with dapper.
[07:53] <intelikey> but if you can tell me what you want it to do i can write a bash script for it....  :)    hehheh
[07:53] <icecruncher> Alonea: nope, just starting to compile from source
[07:53] <BellaireLinuxN3r> lego: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_mount.2Funmount_CD.2FDVD-ROM_manually.2C_and_show_all_hidden_and_associated_files.2Ffolders
[07:54] <lego> I am brain dead.  I just realized I haven't inserted a CD yet.
[07:54] <matias_> how can i use the threedimensional desktop?
[07:54] <Alonea> icecruncher: oh, ok. well, it should of come in the upgrade to Fiesty if you did it that way. I haven't compiled it from source.
[07:54] <ForgeAus> !pigdin
[07:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pigdin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:54] <ForgeAus> matias, theres three packages for 3d desktops
[07:54] <BellaireLinuxN3r> lego: That may be a problem... :)
[07:54] <ForgeAus> Beryl, the most popular, compiz, and 3d Desktop
[07:54] <matias_> ok
[07:55] <lego> brb
[07:55] <intelikey> Snowman if you can't get anything out of these clowns   try #ubuntu    ##linux   ##linuxhelp   #wifi or #wireless  if there is such.
[07:55] <lego> or be back later.
[07:55] <ForgeAus> (note beryl was originally a fork of compiz and they're supposedly in the process of re-merging)
[07:55] <Druntar> instalkins sorry locking up alont
[07:55] <intelikey> lego   all that without a disk...    some one hand him to me....
[07:56] <BellaireLinuxN3r> LOL
[07:57] <mehmet> intelikey:  Thank musch soo muchhh :)
[07:57] <lego> Her is my plan.  Maybe y'all can tell me how bad it is.
[07:57] <Alonea> i wonder if it was wise to make ark create a tar.bz of a 50gig folder...
[07:57] <Snowman> intelikey: thanks for the suggestions.  currently lurking in #kde and #wireless as well.
[07:58] <lego> I made a Windows 98 vmware image and saved to CD.  I want to run vmplayer and run the 98  image.
[07:58] <lego> So I can run my old Windows stuff.
[07:58] <intelikey> if anyone hands you to me,  i'm gonna spank you.
[07:58] <Snowman> why not use wine?
[07:59] <hitmanWilly> Snowman, wine is very...glitchy...
[07:59] <intelikey> :)
[07:59] <BellaireLinuxN3r> b/c snowman, wine can't run some windows programs like PS
[07:59] <lego> I don't know much on wine, but I know my stuff works great in vmware.
[07:59] <Snowman> alonea: depends on if your definition of "wise" is "horrendously time consuming"
[07:59] <ForgeAus> glitchy? hmmm one way to put it
[07:59] <Snowman> BellaireLinuxN3r: true.
[07:59] <ForgeAus> yeah vmware works well mostly
[07:59] <Alonea> indeed...I can't get really anything to run i wine except for solitaire, hearts, freecell, spider solitaire, etc.
[08:00] <hitmanWilly> best i could come up with
[08:00] <Snowman> hitmanWilly: I've had great luck with it for the apps I've tried.  mostly security panel programming apps, though.
[08:00] <ForgeAus> I can
[08:00] <BellaireLinuxN3r> I think wine's for small windows apps
[08:00] <ForgeAus> I got ie6 running on it and mirc
[08:00] <Alonea> ForgeAus: how did you get ie6 to run?! I was trying a couple days ago with NO success.
[08:00] <hitmanWilly> it works about 50/50 for me
[08:00] <intelikey> BellaireLinuxN3r yeah.   i installed a game in it one time....   to slow on this hardware.
[08:01] <icecruncher> !worksforme
[08:01] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[08:01] <Snowman> wine here works for: dls 2002 (dsc alarm panel prog. app), googletalk, heroes of might and magic II (don't laugh, it's a time killer for at work), and a couple of little homebrew mfc apps.
[08:01] <intelikey> i guess you need more than 350 horse power to do that.
[08:02] <Alonea> ForgeAus: my problem is it does that thing when it asks you to restart the application and try installing again.
[08:03] <Alonea> umm, how long should it take to compress a 50 gig folder in a .tar.bz?
[08:04] <BellaireLinuxN3r> alonea: go take a nap, watch some TV, excersise, maybe go shopping
[08:05] <Snowman> shopping in another country, and by exercise we mean a 2 week trek through the andes.
[08:05] <ForgeAus> Alonea, you can simulate a reboot if thats what you mean
[08:05] <Alonea> BellaireLinuxN3r: shopping....I wish. lack money and well, methinks all the stores are closed at 1:05 in the morning.
[08:06] <Alonea> ForgeAus: umm, well, what I mean is, I can't get IE6 to install....
[08:06] <ForgeAus> theres some site, ies4linux I think its called
[08:06] <ForgeAus> also cxoffice (nonfree) has cozy gui to install it...
[08:06] <ForgeAus> (cxoffice is just a wine with extras)
[08:07] <BellaireLinuxN3r> alonea: lol, we're in the same timezone even lol
[08:07] <ubuntu> hi everyone
[08:07] <ubuntu> i need help
[08:07] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I already have that. I need 1e6 installed in wine so I can try installing another program that looks for it. I tried to do the regedit thing where you can try fooling the apps, but no one would tell me which dlls to copy over to where, and the page didn't say which, just that I needed to.
[08:07] <icecruncher> hi
[08:07] <intelikey>  /dev/hda is entire device, not just one partition!
[08:07] <intelikey> Proceed anyway? (y,n) y
[08:07] <BellaireLinuxN3r> ubuntu: doesn't everybody? lol
[08:07] <ubuntu> after i installed linux i firmatted my c drive and installed windows
[08:07] <icecruncher> and
[08:07] <Alonea> BellaireLinuxN3r: dear ole central. God it is hot today...stupid west texas.
[08:08] <ubuntu> now i cant boot linux
[08:08] <BellaireLinuxN3r> alonea: oh wow, i'm in Houston lolz
[08:08] <hitmanWilly> !grub | ubuntu
[08:08] <ubotu> ubuntu: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:08] <ubuntu> is there a way 2 just install the boot loader
[08:08] <Alonea> BellaireLinuxN3r: ooo...bad humidity I hear.
[08:08] <BellaireLinuxN3r> ubuntu: that's actually uh, normal
[08:08] <ForgeAus> ies6linux should install ie6 for you
[08:08] <BellaireLinuxN3r> ubuntu: you need to reinstall grub over NTLDR
[08:08] <intelikey> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows   <<< ubuntu
[08:08] <ForgeAus> you need dcop, msfonts, and some other bits before ie6 will work
[08:08] <icecruncher> !dualboot
[08:08] <ubotu> Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[08:09] <ubuntu> how do i do that
[08:09] <intelikey> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows   <<< ubuntu
[08:09] <ForgeAus> bit IT DOES function... at least in my experience
[08:09] <BellaireLinuxN3r> alonea: yeah, nasty weather here in Houston
[08:09] <Alonea> ForgeAus: it will install it in the wine virtual computer thing?
[08:09] <ubuntu> this is my 1st time using linux
[08:09] <ForgeAus> it even validates with microsoft as a genuine windows!!!!
[08:09] <icecruncher> ubuntu, follow the post by intelikey
[08:09] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I could care less really if it works. I just want to try to install MusicMatch...
[08:09] <ForgeAus> alonea yes
[08:09] <ubuntu> ok
[08:10] <ubuntu> thanx
[08:10] <ForgeAus> (at least the ie6 part does, I think the script leading up to it doesn't)
[08:10] <ForgeAus> hehe the jukebox! nice
[08:10] <ForgeAus> I have no idea if that works in wine or not
[08:10] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I have On Demand service.
[08:11] <Alonea> ForgeAus: where is this ies6linux. google only came up with russian sites.
[08:11] <ForgeAus> 4 not 6...
[08:12] <Alonea> ForgeAus: ok, well, I already have ies4linux, and that doesn't do anything for wine. it is separate. so what is this thing that validates windows and everything?
[08:12] <intelikey> 4!6
[08:12] <ForgeAus> yes intelikey for C fans anyway
[08:12] <ForgeAus> did you run ies4linux? did that not work?
[08:13] <ForgeAus> and yes you run it from a console prompt...
[08:13] <ForgeAus> (rather than from within wine, but it installs ie6 itself from within wine)
[08:13] <intelikey> oh was i speaking C ????   thought it was bash ...
[08:13] <ForgeAus> possibly...
[08:13] <Alonea> ForgeAus: yes it works, but it is separate from wine. like, completely.
[08:13] <ForgeAus> I don't know much about bash scripting
[08:14] <intelikey> :)
[08:14] <ForgeAus> um no its not, it uses wine to make ie6
[08:14] <intelikey> or that would have to be in a    case blah in ; :) ;; esac   wouldn't it...
[08:14] <ForgeAus> (you mean its like a separate instance of wine's windows that it uses?)
[08:14] <Alonea> intelikey: ok. in GParted, how would I partition it without loosing information?
[08:15] <intelikey> Alonea you resize the existing.   and make new from the free space
[08:15] <Alonea> ForgeAus: well, in the ie4linux folder there is some made up windows folders. and in the wine folder there is also the windows folders. but they are completely separate
[08:15] <ForgeAus> hmmm might have changed since I did it last
[08:16] <ForgeAus> weird
[08:16] <ForgeAus> I was able to integrate it with my wine... but anyway if it did function why can't you install musicmatch from within that "bottle" (as cxoffice calls them)
[08:17] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I am lost. how would I install an app in ie4linux?
[08:17] <intelikey> bottles and jars       what does osx use  cans and buckets
[08:18] <ForgeAus> hehe
[08:18] <intelikey> linux uses lots of chains links and loops
[08:18] <ForgeAus> jars are java archives aren't they?
[08:18] <intelikey> yea
[08:18] <ForgeAus> they're also used by windows (and I assume osx)
[08:18] <Alonea> intelikey: speaking of osx, thats what is going on the partition. ^__^
[08:18] <intelikey> oh i'm sorry
[08:18] <intelikey> :)
[08:18] <ForgeAus> heeh nice
[08:19] <ForgeAus> osx!
[08:19] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I do waaaay entirely too many things to be able to be satisfied with one OS.
[08:19] <ForgeAus> yeah windows uses links... not so many chains that I'm aware of ... loops are more  aprogramming thing afaik
[08:19] <ForgeAus> Alonea, ditto
[08:20] <lego> Does Linux have a way to run ISO files as CD's?
[08:20] <ForgeAus> do you have a powerpc or just regular x86?
[08:20] <ForgeAus> lego you can mount iso's
[08:20] <intelikey> mount file.img -o loop dir/
[08:20] <ForgeAus> if thats what you mean
[08:20] <lego> Thank you.
[08:20] <intelikey> for this in that do loop done
[08:20] <Alonea> ForgeAus: this computer was originally a pc, plan on making it have linux, windows, and osx
[08:21] <Snowman> lego: iirc you can use mount to view them as if they were burned and in a drive.
[08:21] <ForgeAus> yeah that kinda thing
[08:21] <ForgeAus> very loopy
[08:21] <ForgeAus> you do know osx for x86 is illegal
[08:21] <ForgeAus> (macintosh actually has a clause that MacOS and/or OSX may only legally run on macintosh hardware)
[08:22] <ForgeAus> (that being said I find rhapsody interesting theres an ix86 version of that)
[08:22] <rohan> can someone please tell me why this error is occuring ? http://rafb.net/p/I09FKq79.html
[08:23] <ForgeAus> I doubt it has such a clause, but I'm not certain how to obtain rhapsody legally and it has little software support... (its basically an Openstep++)
[08:23] <kalorin`> rohan: it looks very much like a corrupt .deb file
[08:23] <rohan> kalorin`: oh .. i'll try re-downloading it
[08:24] <ForgeAus> Haiku is also interesting its basically an (open-sourced?) BeOS clone
[08:24] <kalorin`> nighty
[08:24] <ForgeAus> whilst in a similar vein AROS is an AmigaOS clone for x86 (being an acronym for Amiga Research Operating System)
[08:24] <ThomasZ> The  alsaconf application seems to have been removed from kubuntu;  what replaces it?
[08:24] <ForgeAus> but I don't think it runs amiga binaries
[08:25] <ForgeAus> (the API is compatible, however)
[08:25] <snake_> hi
[08:25] <icecruncher> hi
[08:26] <DaSkreech> lo
[08:26] <DaSkreech> Damn
[08:26] <DaSkreech> Best two out of three?
[08:26] <ubuntu> hey
[08:26] <DaSkreech> hay
[08:26] <ubuntu> i have tried the link u gave me and i followed the steps but it didnt work
[08:26] <snake_> does anyone know something like imesh or bearshare for ubuntu ?
[08:26] <snake_> to download music
[08:27] <icecruncher> !grub | ubuntu
[08:27] <BellaireLinuxN3r> snake_: frostwire?
[08:27] <ubotu> ubuntu: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:27] <DaSkreech> snake_: try magnatune. It comes with Amarok
[08:27] <ubuntu> i use kubuntu is it the same
[08:27] <BellaireLinuxN3r> yes
[08:27] <snake_> i find it in amarok home page
[08:27] <DaSkreech> snake_: As a warning we don't tolerate Piracy here
[08:28] <DaSkreech> snake_: open amarok. It's the tab on the left at the bottom
[08:28] <BellaireLinuxN3r> ubuntu: use the same commands that the page gives you
[08:28] <intelikey> hmmm i'm pretty sure something short cycled on this initrd.img its only 29307 bytes
[08:28] <snake_> ah ok
[08:28] <ForgeAus> p2p? ... mldonkey is kewl
[08:28] <snake_> thank you all
[08:29] <ThomasZ> Alsa found the wrong audio card (forgot to load the module).  How do I tell alsa to search again?
[08:29] <firecrotch> Can someone do me a quick favor?
[08:29] <ForgeAus> its sorta like shareaza for linux! (although I think there may even be an mldonkey for windows?)
[08:29] <|lostbyte|> lol
[08:29] <DaSkreech> There you go
[08:29] <intelikey> ubuntu yes kubuntu is ubuntu until you get to the wm/de
[08:29] <firecrotch> DaSkreech: Thanks !
[08:30] <DaSkreech> No problem hopefully someone would do the same for me before uploading to youtube
[08:30] <Alonea> ForgeAus: Ok, I tried installing ies4linux again and it still appears to be separate.
[08:30] <ForgeAus> alonea can you run wine and ie from within wine?
[08:30] <firecrotch> But seriously... Can someone run "dig -x <IP_ADDRESS>" for me and tell me what the answer section says?
[08:31] <ubuntu> thanx i'll try 2 reboot now
[08:31] <dhorn> Is anyone familiar with ctrl-z in konsole?
[08:31] <Alonea> umm. command? wine ???
[08:31] <ForgeAus> (that is to say can you run the wine installation that has ie installed into it separately?)
[08:31] <ForgeAus> um... genreally wine <insert appname here> (try notepad.exe or something)
[08:32] <Alonea> ForgeAus: oh, are you asking if wine works? yeah. it does.
[08:32] <intelikey> ForgeAus & Alonea full path.    wine ~/ie4linux/blah.exe
[08:32] <ForgeAus> not necessarily if wine works, if wine that can run ie6 works
[08:33] <ForgeAus> if so you can attempt to install musicmatch from there...
[08:33] <freeflyer> can anyone tell me a good server program to get for kubuntu
[08:33] <ForgeAus> (just run the setup program like any other under wine)
[08:33] <Alonea> ForgeAus: umm, you mean ie4linux? if the IE6 in that works?
[08:34] <firecrotch> freeflyer: Apache?
[08:34] <ForgeAus> Alonea NO...
[08:34] <ForgeAus> you may have multiple wine erm "trees" I'll call them
[08:34] <rohan> kalorin`: this the same .deb i used to install before. i don't really think it can get corrupted since
[08:34] <rohan> kalorin`: however, i tried reinstalling it just because mplayer cann
[08:34] <icecruncher> firecrotch: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19221/
[08:34] <Alonea> ForgeAus: because currently there IS no actualy regular ie6 in wine...
[08:34] <ForgeAus> ie two different windows directories installed (but only one wine program)
[08:34] <firecrotch> icecruncher: Thank you very much
[08:35] <icecruncher> firecrotch, why can't you run it?
[08:35] <rohan> however, i tried reinstalling it just because mplayer cannot play the video in a .rm file - it can play the audio. is it a known problem with the w32codecs package of medibuntu ?
[08:35] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I even tried copying over the windows files for ie in ie4 to wine and that did not work...probably needs reg keys or something like that. or i am missing files
[08:35] <firecrotch> icecruncher:  I can, but I wanted to make sure that I wasn't getting a cached answer from something
[08:35] <icecruncher> ahh
[08:36] <ForgeAus> alonea, you basically only need the stuff ies4linux installs in the script
[08:36] <ForgeAus> like cabextract, msfonts, dcom...
[08:36] <ForgeAus> and ie6 should work
[08:37] <intelikey> ok guys.  you're glad i was here but you really wont miss me.    later
[08:37] <ForgeAus> http://patrick.spacesurfer.com/ie_wine_install.html ??
[08:38] <Alonea> ForgeAus: ok, starting over on ie4linux. Show I change to default directory to .wine?
[08:39] <ForgeAus> basically it says what I said
[08:39] <ForgeAus> get dcom98 and ie6setup
[08:39] <ForgeAus> and install that in wine and you don't even need ies4linux
[08:40] <Topclass> anyone know anything about getting a logitech mx1000 mouse working with the forward and back buttons? tried some advice from sites but always kill x
[08:40] <ForgeAus> (note you require cabextract and the microsoft fonts which are available as linux pacakges)... obviously you already have wine
[08:40] <wiegraf77> hellow
[08:40] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I already have those files...
[08:40] <wiegraf77> good afternoo
[08:40] <icecruncher> how can I fing out what version of gtk I'm running?
[08:40] <ForgeAus> hehe helloW???
[08:41] <wiegraf77> ia
[08:41] <ForgeAus> ok they're installed? then install ie6setup from within wine
[08:41] <ForgeAus> (erm sorry dcom98 first then ie6setup)
[08:41] <wiegraf77> what is going now in here
[08:42] <Alonea> ForgeAus: and I tried to install ie6 before, but it would not install. thats why i asked you. you said you had it installed. wanted to know how. installed dcom98 aaaages ago too. also. in those instructions. that config files does not exist foe me...
[08:42] <ForgeAus> Alonea, musta done something wrong then
[08:43] <ForgeAus> I've never had it not install (I've had it not run, due to gecko issues)
[08:43] <frojnd> hello there, I've installed XP after kubuntu and now I don't see kubuntu at the start of boot to choose.. how can I get my kubuntu back :)
[08:43] <firecrotch> !mbr | frojnd
[08:43] <ubotu> frojnd: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:43] <ForgeAus> !grub
[08:43] <Alonea> ForgeAus: it starts to install, but the installer tells me something like I need to restart the installer...
[08:44] <firecrotch> ForgeAus: I win :P
[08:44] <wiegraf77> forgot ie6.... now.. only think in firefox or konqueror...
[08:44] <ForgeAus> lol fc :)
[08:44] <icecruncher> wiegraf77  :)
[08:44] <ForgeAus> hmm but why install ff in wine?
[08:45] <Alonea> wiegraf77: I dont need ie6 to use..I need it so another program in wine can install
[08:45] <ForgeAus> wie he wants to install musicmatch jukebox that requires ie6
[08:45] <icecruncher> Alonea, have u tried another program, or do u really ned this one?
[08:45] <ForgeAus> alonea, I don't think I can help you... all you shoul dneed to do if it asks to reset is simulate a reset
[08:46] <ForgeAus> but your saying restart the installer?... whats going to stop it from doing the same thing again?
[08:46] <Alonea> icecruncher: I need the program for a service it has that my dad pays for.
[08:46] <icecruncher> lol
[08:46] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I need to get the exact error and tell you...i dont remember the exact
[08:46] <ForgeAus> perhaps theres an issue with native dll's vs wine dll's?
[08:46] <ForgeAus> the ones you need are listed : http://patrick.spacesurfer.com/ie_wine_install.html
[08:48] <Alonea> ForgeAus: should I install IE6 in win98 more of XP?
[08:48] <ForgeAus> Alonea, either, probably more apt to use 98...
[08:49] <Alonea> ForgeAus: ok, in 98 I get a different error. It says it cant connect to internet to download files
[08:50] <ForgeAus> hmm can konqueror connect?
[08:50] <Alonea> ForgeAus: umm...it should. lemme check. I mean. I am talking to you right now
[08:51] <ForgeAus> Alonea, I agree... also I don't think I can help you with the cannot connect issue, um perhaps winehq.com will help?
[08:51] <ForgeAus> if not #winehq
[08:52] <Alonea> ForgeAus: I asked them and they said wine isn't even supposed to install IE6 and they dont support it
[08:52] <ForgeAus> lol
[08:52] <ForgeAus> how user-friendly uh?
[08:52] <TheDebugger> Anyone got the problem with amarok where the track name at the bottom left is displayed as html?

[08:53] <Alonea> wiegraf77: indeed, we did read you.
[08:53] <ForgeAus> maybe try different screenres in xrandr?
[08:53] <Topclass> indeed. its doing my head in
[08:53] <iarwain> hiya, anyone know if it is possible to import swf into a presentation (openoffice - impress)

[08:54] <TheDebugger> Anyone can help for my amarok problem?
[08:54] <Topclass> cheers will look into that later
[08:56] <cntb> confused

[09:11] <Alonea> jlilly: I have a nice how to.
[09:11] <jlilly> Alonea: link? I _NEED_ Textmate. (requires 10.4.3, I think)
[09:11] <TheDebugger> 7.04 is really great :D
[09:12] <jlilly> I bought a license then my mac broke and I didn't have the $ to repair so *shrug*, but I would like to try it.
[09:12] <jlilly> TheDebugger: Agreed!
[09:12] <Alonea> jlilly: umm. not sure on link. I printed out the instructions. Lemme see if its in my history
[09:12] <rohan> tarelerulz: yes, ubuntu is easier for new users, as compared to kubuntu
[09:12] <jlilly> Alonea: maybe printed at the bottom or top of the document?
[09:13] <Alonea> jlilly: no, I put text in open office and reduced text size
[09:13] <tarelerulz> Well, the fact something don't seem to work for me. That is what  I don't like

[09:19] <Druntar> I started it over two hours ago
[09:19] <Italy> I'm looking for anyone that cn help me
[09:19] <Druntar> started from a live cd
[09:19] <rohan> Druntar: you can cancel it, and run it again in a console, and check to see if any error mesages are displayed ?
[09:19] <Druntar> go to coping files
[09:20] <Druntar> copying files and froze at 64%
[09:20] <rohan> tarelerulz: what do you want to do ? update your edgy install ?
[09:20] <rohan> Druntar: well, is the cd burnt correctly ? did you verify the md5sum ?
[09:21] <tarelerulz> I woul.d like to upgrede to Kubuntu 7.04
[09:21] <tarelerulz> with adept
[09:21] <jikanter> tarelerulz: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:21] <rohan> tarelerulz: yes
[09:22] <rohan> sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[09:22] <rohan> use aptitude, i've found it to be better at resolving dependency problems
[09:22] <tarelerulz> rohan thanks . That is going ot help me alot
[09:22] <rohan> tarelerulz: the instructions on the wiki did not work ?
[09:22] <jikanter> Hey Admiral Chicago! Your up awfully late...
[09:23] <rohan> tarelerulz: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.04-release.php#upgrade
[09:24] <tarelerulz> I am going to say this I DON'T HAVE A WORKING CD ROM DRIVE
[09:25] <rohan> tarelerulz: so ? the instructions are for online upgrade
[09:25] <rohan> tarelerulz: those are the ones you'd rather follow
[09:26] <don_jr__> I have created a win98 startup cd, when I boot the machine that's running kubuntu right now, it won't boot from the cd, is this something to do with kubuntu installed or is it the machine?
[09:26] <icecruncher> don_jr__: no
[09:26] <don_jr__> icecruncher no what? it's not kubuntu? so it's a problem with the machine then?  thanks
[09:26] <tarelerulz> It is not rether I would or not . I don't have a working cd rom drive at all.
[09:27] <tarelerulz> it is the only way I can upgrade
[09:27] <icecruncher> don_jr__: I'd say it's the cd if you cant boot
[09:27] <Druntar> ok getting irritated
[09:27] <don_jr__> icecruncher okay....gotta fingure out how to make the cd bootable then...my laptop here doesn't have a floppy drive, only CD  thanks
[09:29] <Druntar> running kubuntu 7.04 from live cd finally got the install past the first screen. Then it locked at 64% of copying files. Someone said something about running it from a command line?
[09:29] <icecruncher> Druntar: with
[09:29] <icecruncher> srry
[09:29] <don_jr__> Druntar I had the same problem, had to download the alternate install cd

[09:30] <Druntar> 3 more hours in winsuck hell
[09:30] <davis_> is there an easy way to mount a samba share to my desktop?
[09:30] <Druntar> any other suggestions folks before I go waste more of my time?
[09:30] <icecruncher> Druntar, no
[09:31] <Druntar> don_jr_: the alternate cd did work for you right?
[09:31] <don_jr__> Druntar yes, multiple times it's worked great on 3 different machines I have here at the house.
[09:32] <Druntar> hmmm wonder what the difference is
[09:32] <Druntar> ok well thanks guys

[09:37] <icecruncher> comodo: just a sec
[09:37] <oxydon> hey
[09:37] <jussi01> !fstab | davis_
[09:37] <ubotu> davis_: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[09:38] <Roadrunner343> could some one help me with installing kubuntu from the Live CD?
[09:38] <jussi01> Roadrunner343: click the install button?
[09:38] <oxydon> does anyone know how could i convert a ntfs partition 2 fat or could i just write on ntfs through linux
[09:38] <jussi01> oxydon: are you wanting to preserve your data?
[09:38] <davis_> thanks
[09:38] <oxydon> jussi01: yes
[09:39] <jussi01> best to write to ntfs then...
[09:39] <oxydon> ok
[09:39] <Druntar> ok want to cry
[09:39] <jussi01> !ntfs-3g | oxydon
[09:39] <ubotu> oxydon: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:39] <oxydon> everytime i try it denies
[09:39] <oxydon> thanx man
[09:39] <Druntar> tried to reboot into windows to download the alternate cd
[09:39] <Roadrunner343> Jussi01: THats not it. Its the live CD. I hit "Install/Run Kubuntu" and it opens up the login screen.From there I can't log in because I dont have any accounts set up or anything... Im not quite sure what to do
[09:39] <icecruncher> comodo: under system settings you hit the monitor and display and there under hardware you shold be able to configure your graphics card as admin
[09:40] <Roadrunner343> it gave some error too but I cant rememebr what it was...I can do it again to find out if I must. I just dont know how to log in so I can install Kubuntu permanently.
[09:40] <Druntar> now it says missing operating system
[09:40] <jussi01> Roadrunner343: is there a safemode or something in that first list?
[09:40] <comodo> yea how do i open system settings as root?
[09:41] <jussi01> Druntar: what did you do?
[09:41] <Roadrunner343> Jussi01: I believe so. Should I boot to that?
[09:41] <oxydon> jussi01: i use kubuntu
[09:41] <icecruncher> there is a button at the bottom sayin administrator or something like that
[09:41] <jussi01> Roadrunner343: yes
[09:41] <jussi01> oxydon: its the same in both envirnments
[09:41] <Roadrunner343> Because I am trying to run the live cd so I can install it permanently. I used Kubuntu before (Edgy) but I just installed straight from the CD (It wasnt a live cd)
[09:41] <Roadrunner343> then what? Do I need to know anything to log in or anything like that?
[09:41] <hivemind> Hello there gentlemen. I just got Feisty installed and I have only one task left. Configure whichever applications to start-up on login. Any advice?
[09:42] <Druntar> I resized my vista install then tried to install kubuntu it froze at 64% of copying files. I was told I needed the alternate install cd. So I shut down so I could get back on my vista install to download and burn said cd.
[09:42] <lego> How unsafe is it to be downloading 6 files at the same time?
[09:42] <jussi01> Roadrunner343: do you have limited bandwidth?
[09:42] <lego> I am having a problem with kubuntu so I wanted to get Suse.
[09:43] <Roadrunner343> jussi01: Yeah... At the moment I do. I had a friend download the CD for me.
[09:43] <lego> I was trying to run vmware player and I can't get it to use a cdrom drive.
[09:44] <Druntar> ok how do I run the install from the live cd in a terminal so I can catch the error when it happens?
[09:44] <icecruncher> hivemind, could you explain a bit more pls
[09:44] <lego> Also it gives errors on sound.
[09:44] <jussi01> oh... well if you can, Id get a copy of the alternate cd
[09:44] <icecruncher> Druntar: try in safe mode boot
[09:44] <Druntar> there is no boot except from live cd
[09:44] <Roadrunner343> ok... ill try that. But in case I cant, how do I log into the live cd?
[09:44] <Druntar> or do you mean try running install from safe mode?
[09:44] <jussi01> Druntar: yeah, the safe boot from the cd
[09:44] <lego> Anyone use vmware player?
[09:44] <Druntar> oh ok
[09:44] <hivemind> icecruncher, Well. Lets say I want Xchat to start automatically when I login. How would I set that up?
[09:45] <jussi01> lego:  /join #vmware
[09:45] <lego> Okay.  Thank you.
[09:45] <icecruncher> hivemind, ahh make a symlink in ~/.kde/Autostart
[09:46] <hivemind> icecruncher, Thank you!
[09:46] <icecruncher> np
[09:46] <jussi01> hivemind: you know konversation is much nicer in kde than xchat....
[09:46] <Roadrunner343> alrighty, well thanks for all your help. I might be back shortly =D
[09:47] <carlos|t41> but konversation doesn't support transparency :-[
[09:47] <kasdaye> Well.
[09:47] <hivemind> It does seem nice.
[09:47] <kasdaye> I guess I'll use this instead : /
[09:49] <lego> Good night all.
[09:49] <jussi01> night lego
[09:49] <icecruncher> night
[09:49] <carlos|t41> night
[09:51] <hivemind> There we go =D
[09:52] <icecruncher> lol
[09:52] <comodo> hey man thanks for the help worked perfect
[09:52] <comodo> man i used ubuntu before this and it was way more difficult to get the screen resolution working good
[09:53] <icecruncher> np
[09:53] <comodo> and beryl is easy also
[09:54] <Alonea> ok, I am using vmware and it wants me to say whether me hard disk is ide or scsi. What would my External Hdd be?
[09:54] <comodo> what are you runing ice
[09:54] <icecruncher> Alonea: I'd try scsi, but not sure about it
[09:54] <binks_> *binks wishes he was in a warmer counry
[09:54] <icecruncher> comodo: Pentium 2 33Mhz wth 192 mb ram
[09:55] <Alonea> icecruncher: well, when I plug it into ubuntu it said sda.
[09:55] <binks_> beryl is still a little buggy in kubuntu
[09:55] <icecruncher> make that 333Mhz
[09:55] <comodo> damn
[09:55] <comodo> never updated?
[09:55] <Alonea> icecruncher: anyway to check for sure?
[09:56] <oxydon> jussi01: in the documentation it tells me to go to application system tools but i cant find such a path
[09:56] <carlos|t41> a
[09:56] <carlos|t41> Alonea: i would go for scsi
[09:56] <binks_> i justed berly up and lost the icons in my taskbar oooops
[09:56] <binks_> ^started
[09:56] <Alonea> carlos|t41: ok. will change it to scsi then
[09:56] <icecruncher> Alonea: dunno sorry

[10:32] <ubotu> khoa114: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:32] <khoa114> i'm testing konversation
[10:33] <khoa114> and i want to khown if it run correctly
[10:33] <amdiak> Hello
[10:33] <jussi01> khoa114: head to #ubuntuforums for general discussion :D
[10:33] <jussi01> !hi | amdiak
[10:33] <ubotu> amdiak: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu!
[10:33] <jussi01> khoa114: it seems like it does
[10:33] <khoa114> i install Ubuntu in VMware and it don't regconized my USB
[10:34] <hivemind> Hey, how do I make a symlink which points to an application?
[10:34] <khoa114> What can i do to use my USB
[10:34] <amdiak> Thanks, I'm a french speaker but there's any one on Ubuntu-fr
[10:34] <hivemind> "ln -s konversation symlink_name_here"?
[10:34] <khoa114> In document Ubuntu can read USB
[10:35] <jussi01> hivemind: Im not sure on that, but did you know in kubuntu when you leave konversation or something running at shut down it starts at start up?
[10:35] <heinkel_111> khoa114: you just plug your USB in and use it?
[10:35] <jussi01> khoa114: /join #vmware
[10:36] <andrea> how i get the screenlets for kubuntu?
[10:36] <heinkel_111> it gets mounted automatically
[10:36] <jussi01> heinkel_111: he's in vmware...
[10:36] <heinkel_111> khoa114: ^and shows up as an icon on your desktop
[10:36] <heinkel_111> jussi01: ah...did not see that
[10:36] <hivemind> jussi01: Yeah, but what about amaroK and kmess?
[10:36] <amdiak> Can you help me UBOTU?
[10:37] <jussi01> hivemind: them also i think...
[10:37] <nixbox> hi all
[10:37] <hivemind> Heh.
[10:37] <jussi01> hi nixbox
[10:37] <hivemind> Why don't I give it a try, bbiab.
[10:37] <jussi01> lol
[10:37] <nixbox> is there a way to SSH into the live CD, i have a machine without the monitor, i have booted it using the live CD, how do i connect to it?
[10:38] <hivemind> Kickass. It all works.
[10:38] <jussi01> lol
[10:39] <jussi01> hivemind: out of curiosity, why kmess and not kopete?
[10:39] <hivemind> I like the kmess interface more.
[10:39] <jussi01> fair enough :D
[10:40] <hivemind> Okay. So you know when you have a couple programs spread over a couple desktops, but you can see all their toolbar icons?
[10:40] <hivemind> In gnome you only see the ones on the current desktop. Any way to get the same effect here?
[10:43] <jussi01> hivemind: i dont use different desktops...sorry...
[10:43] <Jucato> hivemind: right-click on the panel, Configure Panel -> Taskbar options
[10:45] <hivemind> Jucato: Thanks =D
[10:45] <hivemind> Well. That's ... everything.
[10:46] <hivemind> Now just to bring in the 20-odd GB of files from WinXP...
[10:46] <atidem> ciao
[10:46] <Cosmo_> after running for about 12+ hours my USB ports stop working (including my mouse)(I am running 7.04 on a desktop) how do I fix this?
[10:47] <Timsen> Hi all, can somebody give me an advice which WebCam is fully supported by dapper?
[10:48] <the-erm> Cosmo_: that's really weird problem... I'd say reboot, but that sounds like a windows solution.
[10:48] <the-erm> Cosmo_: you haven't done anything lately like unloading modules, or compiling a kernel have you?
[10:49] <Cosmo_> the-erm: that is the way I have been fixing it, was hoping foramorepermenant solution, nope haven't done any of that, and it's only after the system has been running awhile
[10:50] <the-erm> Timsen: It's been a while since I even thought about running a web cam, however if things are the same as they used to be ... video4lin.  If it works for the "video for linux" project, then it should be compatible.
[10:51] <the-erm> It's been years since I tried to run a web cam.
[10:51] <kostovnet> Hello everyone, I have a little problem with Feisty - it appears that Konqueror can't detect that I am online (firefox does), using KPPP to connect using GlobeTrotter 3G modem
[10:51] <jlilly> I've tried in beryl but to no avail... I need to know the default values for the burn setting in beryl. I broke mine and its ugly now :( :( :(
[10:52] <hivemind> jlilly: No default button?
[10:52] <the-erm> Cosmo_: what you could do is run "tail -f /var/log/syslog" in your tty to see if it shows anything interesting when the problem occurs.
[10:52] <jlilly> hivemind: Not that I saw.. I 'll look a third time.
[10:53] <jlilly> hivemind: no such luck :-/
[10:58] <Timsen> okay thanks the-erm
[11:00] <the-erm> kostovnet: no freaking clue.  I looked in System Settings->Network Settings and nothing even used for ppp is there.
[11:01] <Angel-SL> !kubuntu
[11:01] <fdoving> kostovnet: do you have knetworkmanager running, in a disconnected state?
[11:01] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[11:01] <Angel-SL> !kubuntu-install
[11:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kubuntu-install - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:01] <Angel-SL> !kde
[11:01] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu.

[11:01] <jussi01> !botabuse > Angel-SL
[11:02] <jussi01> Angel-SL: whats the issue?
[11:02] <Angel-SL> jussi01: no, i'm just looking.
[11:02] <Angel-SL> jussi01: the main question is at xubuntu.
[11:03] <jussi01> Angel-SL: well try not to clog up the channel too much :D
[11:03] <Ace2016> hi all
[11:03] <Ace2016> anyone get gfxboot working in grub on feisty???
[11:03] <jussi01> hi Ace2016
[11:04] <fdoving> kostovnet: you there?
[11:04] <qsu> could somebody help with my sound, cause it seems that my mic is not working
[11:04] <kostovnet> yes, sorry
[11:05] <kostovnet> yes I do
[11:05] <kostovnet> for my eth0 connection is down
[11:05] <jussi01> !alsa | qsu
[11:05] <ubotu> qsu: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[11:06] <the-erm> qsu: alsamixer is the best mixer out there for messing with the sound.  kmix is ok, but isn't as powerful as alsamixer.
[11:06] <qsu> my sound is working when i play music
[11:06] <fdoving> kostovnet: try to quit knetworkmanager.
[11:07] <jussi01> qsu: go to erminal, type alsamixer and make sure your mic volume is up
[11:07] <jussi01> terminal*
[11:07] <fdoving> kostovnet: kde asks knetworkmanager if it's connected or not and consider that answer as the truth, but in your case you use ppp, which knetworkmanager can't handle and isn't aware of, then most kde apps give up before they actually try to connect to anything. Because knetworkmanager is running and disconnected.
[11:08] <kostovnet> Yes, it's working now :) Thank You - quiting network manager did it.
[11:08] <fdoving> kostovnet: great :)
[11:09] <the-erm> I'll have to remember that.
[11:10] <qsu> everything is up jussi01
[11:11] <qsu> np
[11:17] <Angel-SL> i installed kubuntu-desktop on Ubuntu, now the boot image IS kubuntu.. how do I change it back?
[11:19] <jussi01> Angel-SL: at the login screen go to seesion and select gnome...
[11:19] <f3k> hi all
[11:19] <the-erm> hi
[11:20] <Angel-SL> jussi01: no, the boot startup, the one with the progess bar
[11:20] <nbcb> help! i keep getting too many open files error in ktorrent and azureus when downloading bts..... help
[11:21] <pag> Angel-SL, sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so  should do the trick :)
[11:22] <Angel-SL> pag: now my login screen is xubuntu's =/
[11:24] <the-erm> Angel-SL: you could always try and reinstall kdm.
[11:24] <pag> Angel-SL, hmm.. iirc you can change it somehow through that command. I can't say how, because I have only one uspalsh installed. sorry.
[11:24] <the-erm> See if that works ... then again I could be totally off.
[11:25] <pag> the-erm, afaik kdm has nothing to do with it :) On the other hand reinstalling ubuntu-artwork-usplash might work
[11:26] <pag> sorry, tha package is usplash-theme-ubuntu :)
[11:27] <Angel-SL> pag: is there a way to like.. configure it, not reinstall a package?
[11:27] <the-erm> Honestly ... I wouldn't care if it said xubuntu or ubuntu or kubuntu.  It's all pretty much the same.
[11:28] <fdoving> Angel-SL: the way is the command pag gave you earlier: sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so
[11:28] <fdoving> Angel-SL: make sure to select the one you want.
[11:28] <Angel-SL> fdoving: that changes login & boot?
[11:28] <fdoving> Angel-SL: boot.
[11:28] <Angel-SL> what about login then.
[11:29] <fdoving> Angel-SL: what do you want it to be? gnome gdm? kde kdm?
[11:29] <Angel-SL> fdoving: gnome
[11:30] <fdoving> Angel-SL: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm

[11:59] <amitron> "echo!" "echo." "echo.." "echo......"
[12:00] <the-erm> I would try googling it, learning about samba's config files, and going from there.
[12:00] <imbecile> can someone tell me how to uninstall gnome?
[12:00] <amitron> I did try googling for days
[12:01] <amitron> I found something about it, but it did not work.
[12:01] <the-erm> sudo apt-get remove gnome ... maybe.
[12:01] <imbecile> the-erm,  thanks.. sorry im new
[12:03] <the-erm> amitron: I hope you were restarting samba to make sure it was reading the config files while you were attempting this.
[12:03] <the-erm> I've had problems when the ip addresses were not on the same subnet.
[12:03] <the-erm> windows wouldn't talk to the linux machine.
[12:03] <amitron> Well, I even tried a full reboot and nothing happened
[12:03] <the-erm> amitron: can you access files?
[12:03] <amitron> Haven't tried it.
[12:04] <amitron> Yes, I can. With username Guest and no password
[12:05] <the-erm> It's been so long since I've even attempted to run smb.  I've not qualified to answer your question, it would just end up being a frustrating experience for me, and you.

[12:06] <amitron> How do you share printers then between OSX and Ubuntu?
[12:06] <the-erm> Don't you need appletalk for something like that?
[12:06] <the-erm> Maybe I'm totally off.
[12:07] <the-erm> It's been years since I used a mac as well...
[12:07] <amitron> You can use SMB. Or that HP thingy, but my printer is Epson... Yes, OSX can print over AppleTalk/Bonjour
[12:11] <bonaldo2000> Is there a way to set a buffer size or something for ntfs3g? I notice that when I play movies the disk light is blinking rapidly. It shouldnt do this during the entire movie right? Houdn't it read it into the RAM?

[12:53] <_StefanS_> st1ckly78: if you haven't got it, you might want to change your /etc/apt/sources.list to look something like this: http://rafb.net/p/J5Yr0c65.html
[12:54] <_StefanS_> st1ckly78: you need some repositories for those

[12:57] <tdn> How do I install 7.04 with encrypted root file system using LUKS? I have not been able to find any HOWTOs on this for 7.04. Only for Edgy, but I've heard that it should be supported by the installer in Feisty. I have tried booting up on the alternate cd. But I cannot find anything about encrypted file systems in the partitioner. Any help will be appreciated. :)
[12:58] <_StefanS_> tdn:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2420739
[12:58] <_StefanS_> tdn: might help you
[01:00] <tdn> _StefanS_, well... I already read that. But he is also doing it manually (the Edgy way). It should be supported from the installer in Feisty. I would like to do it the "Feisty way".
[01:00] <icecruncher> help, I just compiled pidgin, and I cannot connect because it's saying ssl is not availible, what should i do?
[01:01] <icecruncher> what do I have to install?
[01:01] <_StefanS_> tdn: sorry then, I can't help
[01:02] <heinkel_111> sync --archive --sparse  --exclude=/home/user/./* --exclude=/home/user/../*  /home/user/.* target:/backup
[01:02] <heinkel_111> should this construct be sufficient to back up all the damned .files?
[01:02] <heinkel_111> rsync
[01:02] <heinkel_111> not sync
[01:02] <heinkel_111> as in
[01:02] <heinkel_111> rsync --archive --sparse  --exclude=/home/user/./* --exclude=/home/user/../*  /home/user/.* target:/backup
[01:03] <_StefanS_> icecruncher: you should check that pidgin found the openssl dev headers
[01:03] <tdn> heinkel_111, what does --sparse?
[01:03] <pilar> Hi everyone!
[01:03] <jeroen_> hi pilar
[01:03] <heinkel_111> a more effective way to handle files that occupy a lot of place on the disk but little information
[01:03] <_StefanS_> icecruncher: sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
[01:03] <_StefanS_> icecruncher: try to recompile it, and see if it will find it automatically
[01:04] <pilar> Well, the point that brings me here is not very important, but let's see if there is solution
[01:04] <heinkel_111> tdn: my prime concern was if the wildcards would find all the files
[01:04] <heinkel_111> and the right files
[01:04] <pilar> My laptop is an amd64, so my system is a Kubuntu feisty for this amd64
[01:04] <jeroen_> ok pilar;)
[01:05] <pilar> the question is that aparently there are problems with flash player in firefox on amd64
[01:05] <pilar> Because of that I installed firefox32 with the flash plug-in
[01:05] <pilar> But my language is not english, it is spanish
[01:06] <jeroen_> ok pilar mine is dutch lol
[01:06] <pilar> And I would like to translate firefox32 to spanish
[01:06] <heinkel_111> tdn - i just found out the answer is no!
[01:06] <jeroen_> i can try help u translate
[01:06] <pilar> I'd apreciate it
[01:07] <heinkel_111> tdn: because it seems like since i do /home/user/.* it finds all files and directories in home, not only the .files
[01:07] <icecruncher> _StefanS_: so install openssl and try running the program again?
[01:07] <jeroen_> well i dont know a quiq solution
[01:08] <jeroen_> i downloaded the flach player while i tried to play a game online:d
[01:08] <jeroen_> Pilar u can try to add a plugin on fire fox
[01:09] <jeroen_> i think thes a flash plugin for it
[01:09] <heinkel_111> can someone help me with a wildcard that finds all dotfiles?
[01:09] <heinkel_111> please?
[01:11] <jeroen_> pilar you can open firefox and click on tools and then on add- ons
[01:11] <Lynoure> heinkel_111: ones having a dot or ones starting with a dot? just in the directory or recursively?
[01:12] <heinkel_111> Lynoure: the ones starting with a dot, recursively
[01:14] <pilar> Sorry, I was called by phone
[01:14] <pilar> yes, I can
[01:14] <Lynoure> heinkel_111: find /directorytostartwith -name '.*' -type f
[01:14] <pilar> when I searched for spanish pack I didn't find it
[01:15] <pilar> if you can help me to do it... ;)
[01:15] <heinkel_111> Lynoure: can I put that find thing into an rsync command?
[01:16] <heinkel_111> Lynoure: like I tried rsync --archive --sparse   /home/user/.* target:/backup
[01:16] <heinkel_111> but /home/user/.* gets EVERYTHING in the home directory
[01:16] <Lynoure> heinkel_111: possibly, but not directly in the smack middle off it
[01:16] <heinkel_111> because of the . and .. entries
[01:17] <Lynoure> heinkel_111: I'd be lazy and use rsync with --files-from=FILE
[01:18] <Lynoure> heinkel_111: where the FILE is the file having the results of the find. At least if it is a one time thing.
[01:18] <heinkel_111> well it is not a one timer
[01:19] <heinkel_111> Lyonoure: but I guess I can script that so that shouldn't stop me
[01:19] <Lynoure> heinkel_111: yes, you can. also there is most likely some way to do this directly with --include=PATTERN
[01:20] <Lynoure> heinkel_111: but I don't do support at the moment, so you get to experiment with that on your own :)
[01:20] <heinkel_111> I actually think I might prefer the file list as it will be easier to check
[01:21] <Lynoure> heinkel_111: happy rsyncing to you then :)
[01:21] <heinkel_111> Lynoure thanks for assistance
[01:22] <pilar> I still am looking for a solution to my issue
[01:22] <pilar> jeroen_, are you?

[01:28] <jaims> hello all
[01:29] <jaims> im planning to upgrade my kubuntu from edgy to feisty
[01:30] <jaims> what are the probabilities of success, i mean no problems at all, if I use the integrated with adept_updater update tool?
[01:30] <jaims> does anyone have tried that?
[01:30] <lerneaen_hydra> 'lo all, I was just running the graphical dist upgrade tool, when two error boxes popped up, however they popped up behind another window and can't seem to redraw
[01:30] <lerneaen_hydra> so I don't know what the error is or what to do ;)
[01:31] <lerneaen_hydra> any terminal-command to list what's happening?
[01:31] <jaims> but can u use normally feisty, regardless of some correction to do?

[01:35] <jaims> is there something like 'uname -a' suitable to find my kubuntu version?
[01:35] <lerneaen_hydra> jaims: go to help, in the main menu, and then release notes, it should display the version number there

[03:29] <Daisuke_Ido> dthacker: Plan 9?
[03:29] <BenPA> hi all ... 2 problems here 1. my laptop keeps going into hibernation mode where is the setting to turn it off ... 2. I cannot figure out how to place the konqueror house icon in my task bar
[03:29] <dthacker> Daisuke_Ido: next you're going to suggest SCO Xenix...
[03:30] <Daisuke_Ido> dthacker: it crossed my mind
[03:30] <icecruncher> can anyone tell me how to config pidgin for google talk?
[03:32] <oxydon> hey
[03:32] <oxydon> hey
[03:32] <icecruncher> oxydon, hi
[03:32] <oxydon> can anyone help me with writing on ntfs with kubuntu
[03:32] <oxydon> its giving me a headache
[03:33] <dthacker> ubotu: !anyone
[03:33] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:33] <Yorokobi> !ntfs-3g | oxydon
[03:33] <ubotu> oxydon: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:34] <BenPA> hi all ... 2 problems here 1. my laptop keeps going into hibernation mode where is the setting to turn it off ... 2. I cannot figure out how to place the konqueror house icon in my task bar
[03:34] <binks_> oxydon: how you gettin on
[03:34] <oxydon> i did the installation
[03:34] <binks_> oxydon: and did it install
[03:34] <Linux_Galore> oxydon: http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?answer=24073
[03:34] <oxydon> but i cant run the program from kubuntu
[03:34] <nuxil> kickoff
[03:34] <nuxil> !kickoff
[03:34] <ubotu> Kickoff is a new KDE menu replacement developed by openSUSE. See http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/2331
[03:34] <Linux_Galore> oxydon: oops sorry wrong nick
[03:34] <binks_> so you now see it in system ntsf config tool
[03:34] <Linux_Galore> icecruncher: http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?answer=24073
[03:35] <dthacker> BenPA: for the icon, right click on taskbar, look for "add to panel"
[03:35] <nuxil> !kickoff kicker
[03:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kickoff kicker - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:35] <nuxil> bleh
[03:35] <binks_> oxydon: do you get  kmenu systen ntfs-config tool
[03:35] <oxydon> so can anyone help in this matter
[03:35] <oxydon> no i dont get it
[03:35] <binks_> ststem ^^
[03:36] <binks_> did you enable universe yet
[03:36] <BenPA> dthacker add to panel what?
[03:36] <oxydon> yes i did
[03:36] <oxydon> let me check
[03:36] <dthacker> BenPA: do you see the "Add to Panel" selection when you right click on the taskbar?
[03:36] <binks_> then rerun sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[03:37] <binks_> !ntfs-3g
[03:37] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:37] <BenPA> no
[03:38] <dthacker> BenPA: if you are running KDE, you probably have several icons just to the right of the KDE button.  Correct?
[03:38] <BenPA> I see add applet to panel and I see add new panel ... also add application to panel
[03:39] <dthacker> BenPA: version probably.  OK, select add application to panel
[03:39] <oxydon> i installed it from adept
[03:39] <BenPA> ok
[03:39] <BenPA> I am using 6.10
[03:39] <savetheWorld> Hi all - I just tried to read "man X" and discovered that kubuntu does not install the X man page  (X as in X-windows)  Is there a page somewhere that describes the metapackages ?  I want to install tons of stuff (Equivalent ot Full Centos 4.4 install) but this piecemeal approach is driving me crazy
[03:40] <dthacker> ok, now look under internet to find konqueror
[03:40] <savetheWorld> !obotu metapackages
[03:40] <BenPA> ok
[03:40] <savetheWorld> Rats Obotu has Nothing.
[03:40] <BenPA> I see konqueror browser
[03:41] <dthacker> choose that
[03:41] <LjL> savetheWorld: are you sure there *is* a manpage for X? there is one for xorg.conf
[03:41] <LjL> savetheWorld, it's called ubotu for starters
[03:41] <LjL> but that's all it has anyway
[03:41] <LjL> !metapackage
[03:41] <ubotu> A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions.
[03:41] <BenPA> nothing happens
[03:41] <savetheWorld> LjL: yes, I'm sure. Its been part of Gnu/Linux since Linux started supporting X.
[03:42] <rmd_> is there ubotu for finishishers?
[03:42] <BenPA> never mind I see it now
[03:42] <dthacker> BenPA: please stand by....
[03:42] <savetheWorld> LjL: Might there be anything in the Wiki?
[03:42] <BenPA> but the icon is a glode not the little house
[03:42] <binks_> oxydon: so now is it the menu
[03:42] <oxydon> no
[03:43] <binks_> at a terminal type ntfs-config
[03:43] <dthacker> BenPA: do you have two globes now?
[03:43] <savetheWorld> LjL: are you pretty familiar with the apt tools?
[03:43] <oxydon> it says command not found
[03:43] <BenPA> no, just one but another icon turned up ... login window preference
[03:43] <LjL> savetheWorld: about metapackages? dunno, maybe. anyway "apt-file search X...gz" turns out with absolutely nothing
[03:44] <binks_> so its not installed
[03:44] <dthacker> BenPA: let's try this again.
[03:44] <binks_> at a terminal type sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[03:44] <oxydon> i opened adept and it says it is installed
[03:44] <BenPA> ok
[03:44] <binks_> humor me
[03:44] <savetheWorld> LjL: Is tehre a way to get a list of all the packages?  I could crunch the output for info.
[03:44] <LjL> savetheWorld: i think i'm relatively familiar, yes. also, "apt-cache rdepends xorg" (or xserver-xorg) gives no relevant metapackages
[03:44] <dthacker> Right click on panel, select add an application
[03:44] <LjL> savetheWorld: apt-cache search ""
[03:44] <binks_> type sudo apt-get install ntfs-config | oxydon
[03:45] <BenPA> ok
[03:45] <binks_> not the end bit mind
[03:45] <savetheWorld> LjL: off i go.  (sounds like it'll be "hyuge" :-) )  Thanks.
[03:45] <oxydon> i did and now it sayscouldn't find package ntfs-config
[03:45] <dthacker> BenPA: This time look for a "Personal Files", that should be the home (house) icon.
[03:45] <LjL> savetheWorld: i really do think there isn't a "man X" available, though. not in Ubuntu at any rate.
[03:46] <binks_> can you paste me a copy of the file /etc/apt/sources.list in pastebin
[03:46] <binks_> ie open it using kate /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:46] <BenPA> I don't see a "Personal Files"
[03:46] <savetheWorld> LjL: That would be exceedingly bizarre.  the Man page for "X" is a standard.
[03:46] <oxydon> binks: is this for me
[03:46] <binks_> yes oxydon#
[03:47] <dthacker> BenPA: hang on for 2-3 mins,  I need to boot a laptop and check this
[03:47] <BenPA> I see "Find Files/Folders"
[03:47] <binks_> oxydon: ill pm you
[03:47] <dthacker> BenPA: does that have the house icon?
[03:48] <BenPA> no
[03:48] <dthacker> BenPA: then give me a couple of mins to check on another machine, ok?
[03:48] <BenPA> it has a magnifying glass over a page of paper
[03:48] <BenPA> ok, thanks
[03:48] <LjL> savetheWorld, usually when you install a binary that's supposed to be run by the user, the manpage comes with it, it's not in another package. i suppose there might be exceptions (since X isn't normally run by the user anyway... there is "man startx" for instance), but then how would the manpage be called? /usr/share/man/man1/X.1.gz i'd assume, no?
[03:49] <oxydon> binks: i cant pm u
[03:49] <binks_> i did u in konversation
[03:49] <oxydon> it says i'm not a registered user
[03:49] <rmd_> is there a KDE prog for video conversion? (ie, from flv to mpg or whatever)
[03:49] <stdin> LjL: the man page for X is "man Xorg"
[03:50] <LjL> stdin: ouch... right. i'd tried "man xorg" :)
[03:50] <LjL> savetheWorld, ^
[03:51] <nuxil> when i put in my usb storage. "512 MB" thers a popup window in kde.. where does that popup window get's ints info from.. i mean,, how does it know its example sdb1. ? i do like to know? i guess it gets its info from some kernel message.
[03:51] <nuxil> but where
[03:51] <LjL> hotplug?
[03:51] <binks_> http://pastebin.co.uk/new  paste /etc/apt/sources.list in here you open it with kate
[03:51] <stdin> nuxil: i think from HAL too
[03:52] <binks_> oxydon: ^^
[03:52] <oxydon> yes
[03:52] <nuxil> alright.. thanks.. i'll look into those things
[03:52] <binks_> http://pastebin.co.uk/new  paste /etc/apt/sources.list in here you open it with kate
[03:52] <binks_> oxydon:
[03:52] <binks_> ^^^^^^
[03:52] <oxydon> binks: i just pmed u
[03:54] <binks_> small goals but goals never the less
[03:54] <savetheWorld> LjL: sorry was afk, yes, that is how the man page is named.
[03:55] <savetheWorld> Its been on every *NIX box I've ever used. Including Apollo-Domain-IX, Ultrix, HPUX, AIX, Every Linux distro I've installed, and even (yuck) SCO. :-)
[03:55] <LjL> savetheWorld, you've seen the second message too?
[03:56] <LjL> it's man Xorg
[03:56] <stdin> ie, not "man xorg"
[03:56] <savetheWorld> (and SUN, Coherent, Charles River,  etc.. :-) )
[03:57] <savetheWorld> man xorg looks very informative, but its not  "man X" .  Perhaps it has been replaced by a total re-write.
[03:57] <savetheWorld> that would make sense
[03:58] <stdin> savetheWorld: try "man Xserver" too
[03:59] <savetheWorld> stdin: thanks.  Thats good too.  On Centos I see no xorg man page. but centos is using the Xorg X windows.
[03:59] <savetheWorld> "very interestinnnng"
[03:59] <savetheWorld> :-)
[04:00] <savetheWorld> xserver is on centos
[04:00] <LjL> savetheWorld: well anyway i'm quite positive there isn't an X.1.gz per se anywhere
[04:01] <savetheWorld> LjL: Thank you.
[04:01] <savetheWorld> LjL: Only reasonable conclusion is that it has been replaced with a total re-write
[04:01] <dthacker> BenPA: still here?
[04:01] <LjL> savetheWorld: apt-file is a useful tool for searching for files in packages, by the way (though the packages.ubuntu.com site can also serve the same purpose)
[04:01] <BenPA> yes
[04:01] <LjL> savetheWorld: i suppose.
[04:02] <savetheWorld> ah, "apt-file"  good to know. Thanks
[04:02] <Jucato> apt:/
[04:02] <LjL> savetheWorld: and for finding what metapackage, if any, might contain any given package, "apt-cache rdepends package"
[04:02] <dthacker> On my daughters 6.10 machine, I was able to put a sencond Konq icon on the taskbar, then change the icon.  However, I was not able to get it to open directly to the home directory.
[04:02] <LjL> though sometimes you'll have to use "apt-cache --recurse rdepends package", and that gets harder to parse
[04:03] <savetheWorld> LjL:  as in: "apt-cache rdepends "some-named-Meta-package" ?
[04:03] <savetheWorld> oh, other way around. I see
[04:03] <LjL> savetheWorld: no, as in "apt-cache rdepends the-package-you-want-to-find-a-metapackage-for".
[04:03] <dthacker> BenPA: so I only found half a solution to your problem
[04:04] <savetheWorld> LjL:  got it.  had is bassackwards
[04:04] <BenPA> ok, I understand ... I have the icon for Konq web but not the file one ... this is sort of strange because any time I did install kubuntu-desktop it would be there
[04:04] <savetheWorld> *it
[04:04] <BenPA> however
[04:05] <dthacker> Yep, but my daughter's install is 6.10 and it isn't there, unfortunately
[04:05] <BenPA> when I did the install on the laptop I did a apt-get autoremove when I was done it seems to have taken out docker and 2 other things ... could that be something?
[04:06] <BenPA> oh, ok so it's just not me
[04:06] <dthacker> BenPA: possibly.  I try not to remove things.  I break machines that way.
[04:06] <BenPA> lol maybe so but it was not there for you either
[04:06] <Kr4t05> ...
[04:06] <Kr4t05> It's completely impossible to bring files back from an rm, isn't it?
[04:06] <lettuce> is there a version of xubuntu feisty available for macs?
[04:07] <Jucato> unless it's an mactel
[04:07] <Jucato> (they dropped "official" ppc support starting feisty)
[04:07] <lettuce> I'm pussing it on an ooold imac g3
[04:07] <Jucato> let
[04:08] <BenPA> dthacker thanks for the help with that I will continue to search for some solution ... now ... what about my other issue?
[04:08] <Jucato> let's see if the bot knows something
[04:08] <Jucato> !ppc
[04:08] <ubotu> PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[04:08] <Jucato> lettuce: ^^^
[04:09] <BenPA> dthacker ... my laptop keeps going into hibernation mode where is the setting to turn it off ...
[04:09] <dthacker> BenPA: I had to change mine in the laptop BIOS.
[04:09] <ForgeAus> actually wasn't Amiga also powerpc?
[04:10] <BenPA> ok, hold on let me try that
[04:10] <ForgeAus> or was it just the motorola 86k processor bit they shared?
[04:11] <LjL> ForgeAus: 68k. amiga and mac were 68k. mac switched to PPC, amigas got third-party PPC boards and some programs took advantage of them
[04:11] <LjL> ForgeAus: AmigaOS 4 is PPC, however it's not very widely deployed to say the least.
[04:11] <ForgeAus> LjL IC
[04:12] <ForgeAus> I realize its not widely deployed
[04:12] <ForgeAus> Amiga kinda faded into obscurity... but its still around... just
[04:12] <LjL> AROS is x86.
[04:12] <ForgeAus> yup
[04:12] <ForgeAus> but aros is only AmogaOS api compatible
[04:13] <ForgeAus> it doesn't run AmigaOS binaries
[04:13] <dthacker> Is there a way to change my password from the boot CD?
[04:13] <LjL> ForgeAus: unless someone writes an integrated emulator like AmigaOS 4's, yeah.
[04:13] <LjL> there is stuff underway to get something like that, though. (well, at least integrating UAE a bit better)
[04:14] <ForgeAus> yeah UAE does 86k
[04:14] <ForgeAus> amikit integrates it nicer... but I don't know how far that goes...
[04:14] <tchize> Hi there
[04:14] <ForgeAus> not sure if it does any PowerPC stuff tho
[04:15] <tchize> Any dedicated place to discuss kde4 snapshots in feisty fawn?

[04:16] <Jucato> tchize: normally you could ask in #kubuntu-devel but being a 1) a Sunday and 2) almost time for UDS, I don't think that many people will be able to answer you right now

[04:48] <weswh-work> I am trying to get the latest version of ktorrent on my system. I installed the 2.1.4 .deb from their website, and it said it was downgrading the package, and the update manager said it had a more recent one. So I reinstalled that one - but looking at the version...
[04:48] <dario> i need the one with 122gb of space
[04:48] <weswh-work> it's 2.1-0ubuntu2, which certainly seems like less to me...
[04:49] <weswh-work> any ideas?
[04:49] <BenPA> dthacker ... are you there?
[04:49] <weswh-work> oh, I guess the .deb I had wasn't for 2.1.4
[04:49] <aldin> dario, do u want to have only one parttion or u want as it is
[04:50] <aldin> dario, on this 122gb
[04:50] <dario> humm i want to do one single partition of all that 122gb
[04:51] <aldin> dario, ok, so u are sure of that, dont have any important data on it?
[04:51] <dario> no
[04:51] <liam> hello
[04:51] <dario> i can format it with no problems :)
[04:51] <aldin> dario, where is /boot/grub/ is it on this 80G

[04:52] <aldin> dario, to see that type 'cd /'
[04:52] <dario> one moment
[04:52] <dario> yes the grub is on the one with 80gb
[04:52] <aldin> dario 'df -h /' type that
[04:52] <dario> i do the boot from that whe i startup the pc
[04:53] <aldin> dario, ok, if u say, well what FS filesystem do u want on it ext3 or reiser on 122G
[04:53] <nanothief> does anyone know of a program on windows that is similar to klipper?

[05:02] <aldin> dario, just hurry up gotta go hehe
[05:02] <dario> i did it
[05:02] <aldin> dario in cfdisk windows u will find delete, do u see it?
[05:02] <aldin> both?
[05:02] <dario> yes
[05:02] <aldin> so now should say freespace
[05:03] <dario> yes
[05:03] <dario> now i do new
[05:03] <aldin> dario, good now use 'new'
[05:03] <xite> how do i add win entry to grub...ive xp on hdb5 n ubuntu on hdb2
[05:03] <dario> primary or logical?
[05:03] <aldin> primary, if u are going to have only one
[05:04] <dthacker> hmmm, these restricted instructions seem made for gnome.  Does someone have a link to add restrictied codecs to Kubuntu?
[05:04] <dario> ok
[05:04] <xite> hdb2 is primary n hdb5 is logical i think
[05:04] <dario> should i leave some mb of freespace
[05:04] <dario> ?
[05:04] <dario> as for windows
[05:04] <Jucato> dthacker: which instructions are you reading? and which version of Kubuntu are you running?
[05:04] <aldin> dario, u sadi u want all that space?
[05:04] <aldin> *said
[05:04] <dario> yes
[05:04] <dario> but i know that windows need something as 8mb of freespace
[05:05] <aldin> dario, no u dont need to leave free space
[05:05] <dario> is the same for linux?
[05:05] <dthacker> Jucato: instructions, the first link on the instruction Factoid.  Version 7.04
[05:05] <aldin> dario, just keep going next
[05:05] <dario> i did it
[05:05] <aldin> dario, now 'write' it
[05:05] <Jucato> dthacker: ah for Kubuntu 7.04 it is much simpler. install the package libxine1-ffmpeg
[05:06] <dario> it finded a nes support
[05:06] <dthacker> Jucato: will that work with kaffiene or will I need to install another player?
[05:06] <aldin> dario, ? i did understand u well
[05:06] <Jucato> that will work with kaffeine and amarok
[05:06] <dario> *new
[05:06] <Jucato> dthacker: both of them use Xine
[05:06] <dario> linux finded a new support :D
[05:06] <dthacker> Jucato: tnx, installling now
[05:06] <dario> win i did write
[05:07] <luca> hi everyone
[05:07] <aldin> dthacker, 'sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs'
[05:07] <Jucato> dthacker: the only other thing you would need is the w32codecs
[05:07] <Jucato> !w32codecs | dthacker
[05:07] <ubotu> dthacker: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[05:07] <aldin> dario, now exit
[05:07] <aldin> dario, quit
[05:07] <Jucato> aldin: same thing
[05:07] <luca> does anyone know how to change the default file browser (not internet) from konqueror to dolphin?
[05:07] <dario> i did
[05:07] <xite> how do i add win entry to grub...ive xp on hdb5 n ubuntu on hdb2
[05:07] <Jucato> aldin: on Feisty, libxine-extracodecs = libxine1-ffmpeg
[05:07] <aldin> Jucato, libxine1-ffmpe and extracodec?
[05:07] <aldin> Jucato, if u say so...
[05:07] <The_Machine> If i'm having no luck ?connecting to wireless with Knetworkmanager, what else might I try
[05:07] <Jucato> aldin: on Feisty, libxine-extracodecs just installs libxine1-ffmpeg
[05:08] <Jucato> (they're phasing out libxine-extracodecs)
[05:08] <aldin> dario, now typ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[05:08] <dario> ok
[05:08] <dario> one momente
[05:08] <ubuntu> quit
[05:08] <liam> luca, just dont load knoqueror. load dolphin instead
[05:08] <aldin> dario, and sendit on pastebin
[05:08] <luca> liam I know, but I mean when using alt+f2 :)
[05:09] <Jucato> luca: in Konqueror, Settings menu -> COnfigure KOnqueror -> File Associations -> inode -> directory
[05:09] <dthacker> Jucato: what repository do I need to enable for libxine-ffmpeg1?
[05:09] <Jucato> set the default app to dolphin
[05:09] <luca> jucato: thanks!
[05:09] <Jucato> dthacker: nothing. it's in main
[05:09] <Jucato> dthacker: and it's libxine1-ffmpeg
[05:09] <Jucato> not libxine-ffmpeg1
[05:09] <dario> http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/19286/
[05:09] <liam> uninstall knqueror
[05:09] <aldin> dario, ?
[05:09] <aldin> dario, oh ok u were late hehe
[05:10] <Jucato> liam: um.. don't
[05:10] <roadfish> How can I startup firestarter without a password? I added firestarter to /etc/sudoers. But when I "sudo firestarter" then I get "Xlib: connection refused by server ... No protocol specified". What am I doing wrong?
[05:10] <dario> hehe :)
[05:10] <aldin> dario, good as u see there is only one partiton now
[05:10] <Jucato> roadfish: try using kdesu instead of sudo?
[05:10] <dario> yes
[05:10] <The_Machine> Does anyone know a solution the the "battery not present" problem with laptops?
[05:10] <dario> it is true
[05:10] <liam> why? bad things happen?
[05:10] <aldin> dario, now do this 'sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1'
[05:11] <roadfish> Jucato: I tried kdesu but it asks for a password. How can I get "kdesu firestarter" to not prompt me fore a password?
[05:11] <Alarm> |ericsson|,  no man i didnt manage, i gave up actually , i thought that i can live with pmount before i will destroy my HD by  trying to fix it and turning it on/off 10000 times
[05:11] <dario> i'm doing it
[05:11] <aldin> dario, ok, u are almost capmione hehe
[05:11] <weswh-work> anyone know of a reference that shows you how to make .deb packages? from source i presume
[05:11] <Jucato> liam: the kubuntu-desktop metapackage will be removed also, which may cause some upgrading problems later on. also, luca was asking about changing the default file manager, so he/she probably still needs konqueror for other things
[05:11] <dario> what is a capmione
[05:11] <aldin> weswh-work, i know sudo apt.get install checkinstall

[05:14] <dario> i did it
[05:15] <Jucato> bah sorry

[05:15] <soulrider_> but for KDE
[05:15] <aldin> dario, what it says?
[05:15] <dario> nothing

[05:17] <Jucato> soulrider_: hm... it really sounds like a good idea. but I unfortunately don't have the time, resources, or knowledge to help. but you're right, having an offline/CD source for apps is a much needed feature/project
[05:17] <dario> http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/19287/
[05:17] <soulrider_> Jucato:  who should i talk to to get it going ?

[05:40] <aldin> dario, just sec we will fix it
[05:40] <Jucato> boyee: have you tried searching the repositories (Adept Manager) for what you are trying to install?
[05:40] <LHoT> so it'd be
[05:41] <soulrider> jd823592: you choose what you want when youre loggin in, you dont need another grub
[05:41] <aldin> dario, that is normal
[05:41] <Jucato> LHoT: how did you install it?
[05:41] <LHoT> apt-get
[05:41] <soulrider> boyee: just ask
[05:41] <dario> ok
[05:41] <Jucato> LHoT: then "sudo apt-get remove <whatever>"

[05:42] <LHoT> !justask | boyee
[05:42] <ubotu> boyee: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:42] <Jucato> jd823592: if you have both KDE and GNOME installed, you can choose which of the two you login to at the login screen.
[05:42] <dario> http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/19292/
[05:42] <aldin> dario, it is "normal" cause u mounted it as superuser/administrato with sudo
[05:42] <danny500> I'm back :D and running 7.04 :D:D:D:D:D
[05:42] <danny500> um I'm getting one problem though
[05:43] <danny500> my screen keeps flashing for some reason, it's like it's trying to show a game or some thing but can't
[05:43] <aldin> dario, just sec
[05:44] <jd823592> soulrider: it seems to me you misundertood: I wanted to know if while installing the OS there is choice of GRUB or LILO in GRAPHICAL or TEXT version and then choice if i want to install KDE or GNOME or both ... (all these things as a part of the installation so you wouldnt need to download any of these yourself)
[05:44] <soulrider> ohh jd823592 i understand
[05:44] <soulrider> unfortunately there isnt
[05:44] <aldin> dario, try this 'sudo konqueror /media/dariosfolder' and write some files on it
[05:45] <soulrider> at least not that i know of
[05:45] <Jucato> jd823592: you need the DVD installer for that I think
[05:45] <jd823592> ok then i misunderstood ... sorry
[05:45] <aldin> dario, we will make it writable but i have to go for a 10mins will u be here?
[05:45] <Jucato> but GRUB is used by default, no matter which installer you use
[05:45] <jd823592> but the DVD aint free is it?
[05:45] <Jucato> not shipped, if that's what you mean
[05:45] <Jucato> hm... wait
[05:45] <dario> ok
[05:45] <dario> it works
[05:46] <dario> i can write on it
[05:46] <aldin> dario, u see hehe, good, well see u later or u can aske here for ext3 rw, till i come back
[05:46] <dario> but do i have permission with non sudo command?
