[21:33] <kitofhawaii> SyncopatedFool: but you'll need to run the prev command to get a lease back (if i'm not mistaken)
[21:33] <dave81> what is the best linux os?
[21:33] <Flare183> !best
[21:33] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[21:33] <CompGuy77> sasha_:  do you have "Advanced Desktop effects settings installed?
[21:33] <sasha_> yes
[21:33] <sasha_> :D
[21:33] <SiegeX> the one that runs the linux kernel
[21:34] <skelter> magic_ninja, i did what you suggested - should it say that i'm using these drivers in the "restricted driver" control panel, now?
[21:34] <SiegeX> but the best linux distro is Slackware =)
[21:34] <SyncopatedFool> but that doesn't solve the problem of releasing the ip from my computer's nic
[21:34] <shampoonator> dave81,  gentoo :)
[21:34] <nickrud> linux from scratch, cuz it's yours
[21:34] <CyberGabber> dave81: Find that out for yourself at : http://distrowatch.com/
[21:34] <CompGuy77> go to System/Preferences/Advanced Desktop Effects Settings
[21:34] <matthieu> dave81, you will never have a final response, or perhaps Me :p
[21:35] <SiegeX> LFS is great as a learning tool, but as a full up system, that would be a bitch to admin yourself to keep up to date with all the security patches and bug fixes and what not IMHO
[21:35] <cwill747> SyncopatedFool: have you tryed sudo dhclient ?
[21:35] <continentaltest>  i have a problem printing ... installed latest vbox package under the latest Kubuntu distro, and started a WinXP sp1 VM for a little more testing (trying to completely get away of MS Windoze, sans a few legacy apps).  Never before now have I had to print from within the WinXP VM.  Its gotta be simple, but I must have missed something. The parent Kubuntu install has network printers available to it.  The WinXP has the appropr
[21:35] <cwill747> SyncopatedFool: should release and renew
[21:35] <nickrud> SyncopatedFool: sudo ifdown eth0
[21:35] <kitofhawaii> dave81: yah good luck with that one. depends what you're doing, (or who you're doing it for) i stick with either centos, opensuse, or ubuntu
[21:35] <dave81> cool ty  all
[21:35] <BigDaddy> Come on... someone here has to know how to uninstall a piece of hardware
[21:35] <cwill747> SyncopatedFool: that would work too
[21:35] <cwill747> BigDaddy: What are you trying to uninstall?
[21:36] <dave81> BigDaddy what hard ware>/
[21:36] <cs02rm0> BigDaddy: how did you install the driver?
[21:36] <kitofhawaii> SyncopatedFool: "sudo dhclient -r eth0" release the lease
[21:36] <AirLancer1986> Hi, I'm rather new to Ubuntu and already messed up the driver of my wirless card
[21:36] <mtx1> when i start my ubuntu system i get init: rcS process 2030 killed by signal 11 and rc-default process 2032 killed by signal 11 anyone know how to fix this? i have searched google for hrs with no fix? what would cause this?
[21:36] <coriander> How can I change my login username?  I just did an install and had a typo in the name.  I want to fix it without reinstalling.
[21:36] <CompGuy77> sasha_: Still here?
[21:36] <kane77> how can I restart video?? if I run video in mplayer I just get purplish mess...
[21:36] <CyberGabber> dave81: Download some LIVE-Cd's aviable there, and expirement with it, to fill your needs.
[21:36] <BigDaddy> I am trying to get my sound back. I think if I uninstall the sound card, I could reboot and it would be recognized as a new peice of hardware
[21:37] <sasha_> yes
[21:37] <CompGuy77> did you see the above message?
[21:37] <sasha_> i was setup transparent cube
[21:37] <sasha_> i was not see that options
[21:37] <sasha_> sorry
[21:37] <sasha_> it works

But now i figured, my laptop aint exactly the worlds fastest compy, not to mention its an amd, with an ati graphics card.... However my desktop uses my favorite graphics, nvidia, and its a 3gh with 1gb ram, hence im cleaning
[21:39] <CompGuy77> is there any simple way to install an intel wireless driver?
[21:40] <sasha_> i was setup transparent mode
[21:40] <sethk> BigDaddy, no, I don't.  A better option is to reinstall the required packages with the force flag.  force makes it reinstall even if the package database says it's already installed

[21:40] <sasha_> but i have problems with shift + backspace
[21:40] <sasha_> :D
[21:40] <Locksm> So, id like to hear, i was told that some version of ubuntu is an eyecandy version... But thats not the main issue, which version of the ubuntus would be as stabil as 7.10 and be able to made into a graphic beast filled with small widgets :P
[21:40] <sasha_> yes works

[21:41] <cox377> anyone know how to install real player lol
[21:41] <sethk> BigDaddy, I don't know; you said you had installed everything today, so I assumed you might remember
[21:41] <kitofhawaii> Locksm: hah wb :)
[21:42] <mtx1> cox377 look at the feisty wiki its in there
[21:42] <Pyrofreek> anyone?
[21:42] <Locksm> kitofhawaii: thank you :)
[21:42] <nickrud> AdeptSix: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/map.html
[21:42] <mtx1> think its sudo apt-get install realplay
[21:42] <sasha_> is x1600 ati drivers supported ?
[21:42] <sasha_> now i have x600
[21:42] <kitofhawaii> Locksm: most use kde for the eye candy, and i'll be honest widget support in gnome isn't so great
[21:43] <sasha_> last time when i trying to install compiz on x1600 i was not have luck
[21:43] <CompGuy77> how can I get widgets on ubuntu?
[21:43] <Pyrofreek> anyone know my my screen would be garbled upon starting up
[21:44] <Locksm> kitofhawaii: ok, but does using kde make me into the evil devil concerning the ubuntu way or, does it open op a world of problems or what.. remember still a rookie, though ive taken a lot of what ive been told to heart, and reading up on some websites linked to me ;)
[21:44] <kitofhawaii> sasha_: ask locksm how much of a pain getting the latest ati driver was...it takes hours (and a few prayers)
[21:44] <cox377> mtx1: unfortuantly it looks like debian isnt hosting it anymore
[21:44] <Locksm> ARG
[21:44] <Locksm> dun ask me sasha_!!
[21:44] <sethk> Locksm, ubuntu supports kde, gnome, as well as many others
[21:44] <Locksm> still got the shivers
[21:44] <sasha_> someone have x1600 ?
[21:44] <Locksm> took about 2½ hours just getting the ati drivers down and compiled i think
[21:44] <BigDaddy> sethk: ok, how about this. Xine keeps saying my device is busy
[21:44] <DM|> since gutsy control C no longer shuts down a process in terminal, anyone know how to fix that?
[21:44] <sethk> Locksm, I have gnome, kde, icewm, enlightenment, and windowmaker on my box
[21:45] <Locksm> then getting em installed and makeing nessacary tweaks prob took close to 2 hours
[21:45] <BigDaddy> sethk: how can I find out what is occuping my sound card?
[21:45] <kitofhawaii> Locksm: it doesn't make you the devil, but kde4 is still in rc stage, so i'd wait for kde4 to go stable release until you tried it (or try kde3 but why bother with kde4 coming out?)
[21:45] <Locksm> not to mention our session with that damn wifi
[21:45] <sethk> BigDaddy, Not sure.  I could be a sound server issue.  If the sound server isn't running, only one app can access sound
[21:45] <CyberGabber> Pyrofreek: When youre in the garbled screen, you can try pressing together : Ctrl Alt +    or Ctrl Alt -   , which switches between lower/higher resolution...
[21:45] <Locksm> Ah
[21:45] <AdeptSix> nickrud: do I need to add this into /boot/grub/menu.lst .... or better yet what file needs to be edited to set the chain-loading?
[21:45] <sasha_> i was found notice that only x1600 are not supported
[21:45] <sethk> kitofhawaii, because it's wise to wait until kde4 has been out for a few months before upgrading
[21:45] <sasha_> but that was before 4 mounts
[21:46] <BigDaddy> sethk: Aha... what is the sound server process name? I will look and see if it is runniing?
[21:46] <sethk> kitofhawaii, if you install it the moment it's released, you are asking for trouble  :)
[21:46] <sethk> BigDaddy, I believe that in gnome it is called snd
[21:46] <kitofhawaii> sethk: aye...i tried installing the kde4 rc releae and it broke my gnome :)
[21:46] <Locksm> kitofhawaii: so basicly just go and learn some more of the ubunto gutsy gibbon version, and then just shift over doing a reinstall when new edition gets out, that way also getting linux/unix/ubuntu under my skin
[21:46] <Pyrofreek> cyber: i doubt it will work because all it is is the loading bar and logo just really jacked up, am i able to access anything from that screen
[21:46] <Locksm> btw what do you refer to in general, just plain linux or ?
[21:46] <frost0> do you think i can run ubuntu on a 9bg partition?
[21:46] <kitofhawaii> sethk: so i'm not trying it anytime soon even after release personally lol
[21:46] <Pyrofreek> cyber: it doesnt actually make it to the login
[21:46] <paul-a> does anyone know how to get samba to work in 7.10?
[21:46] <nickrud> AdeptSix: yes, that would be the xp stanza in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[21:47] <sethk> kitofhawaii, my point is it makes perfect sense to install the stable kde 3
[21:47] <BigDaddy> sethk: Well, if the process is " snd " it is not running.
[21:47] <Ildjarn> I need help with ndiswrapper please. I typed ndiswrapper -l and it says the device is present.. But the wireless light didn't turn on.. What else should I do to make it work? I tried ndswrapper -m and it says module configuration already has alias directive
[21:47] <kitofhawaii> Locksm: yah, kde and gnome are just your window managers, there's plenty more to learn besides :)
[21:47] <AdeptSix> nickrud:  this is what I currently have title		 Windows XP
[21:47] <AdeptSix> root 		(hd1)
[21:47] <AdeptSix> map 		(hd0) (hd1)
[21:47] <AdeptSix> map 		(hd1) (hd0)
[21:47] <AdeptSix> chainloader 	+1
[21:47] <AdeptSix> savedefault
[21:47] <AdeptSix> boot
[21:47] <Locksm> kitofhawaii: that fact is beginning to dawn on me
[21:47] <frost0> kitofhawaii, do you think i can run 7.10 on a 9bg partition?
[21:47] <sethk> BigDaddy, that's odd.  Try rebooting the system.  Normally I wouldn't suggest that, but it sounds like you've been hacking and the machine state isn't known.
[21:48] <AdeptSix> That has not worked for me.
[21:48] <Locksm> dosnt they recommend aprox 14 gb on ubuntu in general
[21:48] <AdeptSix> I get a boot error when I select Windows XP from grub
[21:48] <sethk> AdeptSix, it doesn't work much more frequently than it does work
[21:48] <nickrud> AdeptSix: pasting here isn't very nice, and root still should be hd0 iirc
[21:48] <frost0> kitofhawaii, better question...how much does a standard install take up?
[21:48] <BigDaddy> sethk: I have rebooted several times after uninstalling everything I thought I installed and this problem cropped up
[21:48] <CyberGabber> Pyrofreek: type my complete name please...  Try at Loginscreen the keys Ctrl Alt backSpace  to 'restart' grahics.. Something it helped me wchi kind of same problem.
[21:48] <AdeptSix> I am sorry about the pasting, I realized that as soon as I did it.
[21:48] <jasoni> Good Day all...  I'm having a problem with my sound.  It appears to be playing, but there is no sound.  Nothing is muted, tried two cards (built in and USB)...  Read lots of articles...  I'm out of ideas.
[21:48] <sasha_> why u use winblos ?
[21:49] <sasha_> :D
[21:49] <sethk> BigDaddy, ok.  I run kde so I'm not the best person to help with the gnome sound server
[21:49] <AdeptSix> Because to my knowledge I can't run Civ4 in ubuntu.
[21:49] <sethk> AdeptSix, too late!  Off with your head!
[21:49] <sasha_> hehehehe
[21:49] <BigDaddy> sethk: That's ok, you gave me a starting point. Thanks
[21:49] <sasha_> try with cedega

[21:50] <GH0> Hello. I have been trying to load Ubuntu on a machine that is rather old for awhile. Everytime  I load it, it comes up normaly after the kernel loads it says [0.000000] ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP. I was wondering what this could mean.

[21:53] <Alejandr0> hello, i need help with xmms plugin singit
[21:53] <coriander> nickrud, thanks that worked.  I just had to swap the -m parameter to come after --home <newdir> instead of before it.
[21:53] <nickrud> AdeptSix: raid I don't understand either
[21:53] <AdeptSix> nickrud:  Thanks for the help, though I still get the feeling this isn't going to work.  If it doesn't do you think it's hopeless outside a fresh install?
[21:53] <kitofhawaii> frost0: at 9gb i'd let gutsy take care of the partitioning for you...unless you really don't like its decisions
[21:53] <Eicca> jasoni I'll try
[21:53] <nickrud> coriander: cool, I'll try to remember that :)
[21:54] <sasha_> now they was tell me
[21:54] <sasha_> if i use compiz i dont have rendering
[21:54] <frost0> kitofhawaii, does it leave a buffer of space between the two?
[21:54] <nickrud> AdeptSix: no, there are a lot of much smarter people that drop in and out daily, check back in a few
[21:54] <sasha_> and for google earth u must have it
[21:54] <crdlb> sasha_: no, you don't have "direct rendering" :)
[21:54] <crdlb> rendering is an ambiguous term which doesn't mean much
[21:54] <sasha_> hehe
[21:54] <AdeptSix> cool thanks ... if I'm back in 5 it means I'm not in windoze

[21:55] <Locksm> ok just finished takeing a lot of data off the external, now i got a Q more though... Its ntfs partitioned and its in one drive and its 300 gb large
[21:55] <Locksm> i was thinking on takeing say, 100 gb out of it, and slam 40 into a linux partition, and rest as a fat 32 for shareing between systems.. But!! here is the part, i got 2 hard drives, 1 is into 2 pices, and the other needs to be halfed up and remade into 3 partitions... I still got about 120 gb of data on it that i dun wanna loose, can i still cut the partition into a smaller pice?
[21:55] <meoblast001> i currently use Kino
[21:55] <coriander> nickrud, I also then used groupmod -n <oldname> <newname>
[21:55] <sasha_> well u know what i trying to say :D
[21:55] <kitofhawaii> frost0: it generally favors /home since that's where your data usually lives
[21:55] <anabelle> i have a problem, when compiz is active and i try to play i video it has gaps.
[21:55] <nickrud> coriander: you have learned about man pages, I see
[21:55] <kitofhawaii> Locksm: dunno...i don't generally use partition resize tools (i don't trust them personally)
[21:55] <anabelle> it stops for 2-3 seces and then keep playing for about a minute
[21:55] <Locksm> me neither
[21:55] <skelter> is there some reason that the update manager tries to push a new version of graphviz on me every two days?
[21:56] <kitofhawaii> Locksm: but i live in hawaii, and our power goes out frequently enough for me to stick to the old backup/restore method
[21:56] <Locksm> kitofhawaii: mkay.. Well ive never been a fan of repartitioning half an active drive my self, always taken backup or placed data somewhere else, and repartition entire drive...
[21:57] <coriander> nickrud, honestly I just guessed it and got lucky, tho I'm not a stranger to man.  thx again

[21:57] <Eicca> jasoni thanks alot :) I'll save that forum to bookmark :P

[21:58] <meoblast001> i saw a freaking Winblows ad on a Linux article
[21:58] <Eicca> :( sad
[21:58] <kitofhawaii> Locksm: lol i dunno if you don't have enough space somewhere to back up your data to (and it's that critical not to lose it) you're flying a kite without a string
[21:58] <phoenix__> i try to run google earth with: DISPLAY=:0 googleearth an works!!! but there's no borders Any suggestions?

[21:59] <nickrud> lifeforms: shorewall is very nice, and is in ubuntu main
[21:59] <Locksm> but its mostly selfmade video, websites for variouse clients, and large commercial adds with a lot of graph notes...
[21:59] <crdlb> phoenix__: display :0 is the underlying X server which has no window manager. Xgl is running in a fullscreen window on top of that server.
[21:59] <Locksm> tends to take up a lot of space...
[21:59] <haukuri> Does anyone have this same problem? Whenever i move a video window (xvideo) in any video player (totem, vlc or mplayer) the image itself gets left behind until I drop the window. I've got an intel graphics card.

[22:00] <talcite> hey guys, I have a problem with compiling something from source
[22:00] <Locksm> Ildjarn: your using a broadcom wifi right ?
[22:00] <talcite> would someone be able to take a look for me?
[22:00] <Ildjarn> Locksm yes
[22:00] <kitofhawaii> Locksm: yah, sounds like time to invest in a 500gb usb drive (i got mine for $100, that's cheap for insurance :) )

[22:00] <chronic1> anyone here having problems with flashplugin-nonfree and md5sum mismatches?
[22:01] <Locksm> minipci or regular pci Ildjarn ?
[22:01] <Ildjarn> Locksm minipci
[22:01] <meoblast001> is Piviti good?
[22:01] <Locksm> you wouldnt happen to use an acer laptop right ?
[22:01] <Ildjarn> Locksm: Compaq
[22:01] <sasha_> i have problems with aircrack-ng with atheros 5007 wifi card
[22:01] <sasha_> :D
[22:02] <meoblast001> is Kino better than Piviti?
[22:02] <mr_flea> is it possible to do a chroot-type install without actually chrooting? all i see that is being done in the chroot is installing a kernel and bootloader... (i'm asking because chroot isn't going to work because i installed amd64 but i'm working from i386)
[22:02] <white_eagle> i just want to share an experience
[22:02] <Locksm> oh, ok, well i had the problem with an acer minipci, my card was a revision 3, and someone in here were kind enough to help me out with my issue. But doing the process again, i wouldnt bet on 100% cuz im a rookie at linux / ubuntu

[22:03] <kane77> Ildjarn, wow, that sucks.. I feel for you..
[22:03] <meoblast001> how do you add music to PiTiVi?

[22:04] <kane77> Ildjarn, so what vireless you have_
[22:04] <AgentHeX> can someone suggest an IDE for this purpose
[22:04] <kitofhawaii> haukari: that's normal...if you're not using a composite window manager, it won't change the render location until you drop the window
[22:04] <white_eagle> i couldn't change my screen resolution higher than 640*480 with the fglrx drivers( for ati), but when I uninstalled them and reinstalled them the screen resolution itself changed to 1024*768

[22:05] <frost0> kitofhawaii, how can i
[22:05] <kane77> AgentHeX, there is no IDE specificaly designed for modifying GPM, but there are few for C/C++, such as anjuta, eclipse, netbeans...
[22:05] <frost0> kitofhawaii, whoa...how can i tell how much hd space i have left?

[22:06] <Slazer> does sb know the command to configure console?
[22:06] <kane77> Ildjarn, that's the same as I have!
[22:06] <Ildjarn> kane77: Cool. Are you using the restricted driver, or ndiswrapper?
[22:06] <Slazer> font, chareset..etc.
[22:07] <kane77> Ildjarn, the restricted driver didn't work in my case, only ndiswrapper...
[22:07] <white_eagle> just to ask, is this the first ubuntu version with support for wireless networking? i mean for the 7.10
[22:07] <kane77> AgentHeX, I prefer netbeans but that's only because I'm java & ruby dev
[22:07] <Ildjarn> kane77: Okay, I had tried both, but neither worked
[22:08] <kane77> Ildjarn, one at a time?
[22:08] <Ildjarn> kane77: Yeah
[22:08] <Ildjarn> kane77: Which version of ndiswrapper should I use?
[22:09] <sEbAsTiAnFfX> somebody knows how to make works the third button of the mouse as the displacement button in firefox (ubuntu 7.10) ?
[22:09] <mtx1> i get init: rcS process 2030 killed by signal 11 and rc-default process 2032 killed by signal 11 anyone know how to fix this? i have searched google for hrs with no fix? is there anyway to just recopy the /etc/init.d folder or will that mess everything up?
[22:09] <kane77> Ildjarn, I use the one from repositories.. and downloaded the driver from the HP page (my laptop is HP)
[22:09] <Ildjarn> kane77, I tried that but the wireless light didn't turn on :[
[22:10] <kitofhawaii> Ildjarn: did you modprobe between loading each ndis driver?
[22:10] <Ildjarn> kitofhawaii: I added the driver and then sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[22:10] <sebrock> I need some help, just installed this package from hardy rep to a gutsy system, worked out fine. However the changelog says that a sertain patch is included. Doesnt seem to work here thought
[22:10] <sebrock> the package is lirc

[22:12] <Ildjarn> kitofhawaii: Yes it did, after I added the driver
[22:12] <kitofhawaii> Ildjarn: then you need to remove it with modprobe before trying a different driver

[22:37] <hape> hi .. anyone in there who used gutsy with rdesktop on multiple screens?
[22:37] <pythondasnake> I want to Dual Boot with Ubuntu/xp.  If I install Ubuntu does it package software to partition the HDD. I attempted to do it but it says I don't have enough partitioned space, although I don't know how that is possible with a 500 GB hard drive ??
[22:38] <kane77> wols, and the steering wheels?
[22:38] <Hilikus> hey guys, im trying to backup using rsync but i need a way to burn directly to a dvd, i dont want to create tars or any package that needs to be in the hard drive, i need to have it sent directly to the dvd burner, what program can i use to do that??
[22:38] <pythondasnake> NERO?
[22:38] <bruenig> Hilikus, so you want to rsync it directly to a dvd?
[22:38] <pythondasnake> I I guess that is windows
[22:38] <robdeman> hey alll... aMule just does not connect to any servers anymore... it has been working allright for weeks.. it just stopped
[22:39] <BarryToeman> geektern: probably.  try the tor detector page: http://torcheck.xenobite.eu/
[22:39] <Hilikus> pythondasnake you probably dont have free partitions, but you can resize your win partition
[22:39] <Hilikus> bruenig yes
[22:39] <BarryToeman> geektern: it's easy to use with the TorButton extension in firefox
[22:39] <pythondasnake> hilikus before I install ?
[22:39] <wols> pythondasnake: do you have some free unparitioned space on your harddisk?
[22:39] <Hilikus> pythondasnake during. the installiton will do that
[22:39] <bruenig> Hilikus, ok well you don't want rsync then, what you are going to want to do I suppose is use mkisofs and then pipe that to cdrecord
[22:39] <zechs> how does one get root globally in ubuntu? I have something that's impossible to do in the terminal it seems, and so i need root on the 'desktop'
[22:39] <pythondasnake> wols: I don't know how to check that using ubuntu?? Unpartitioned space
[22:39] <bruenig> Hilikus, maybe I growisofs does this, check the man page, I think it might
[22:39] <pythondasnake> I'm running off the iso image
[22:39] <pythondasnake> currently
[22:40] <Nexers> #ubuntu-pl
[22:40] <wols> pythondasnake: cfdisk for example
[22:40] <geektern> BarryToeman: thankyou i will be back to tell you the results to see if it worked or now
[22:40] <hape> zechs: try sudo su -
[22:40] <Hilikus> bruenig couldnt i pipe rsync??
[22:40] <bruenig> Hilikus, yeah the man page says growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -R -J /path/to/files
[22:40] <wols> zechs: sudo bash
[22:40] <aBound> pythonasnake: Usually on the LiveCD there is a partition editor might be in System >> Admistration >> Gnome Partition Editor if not its in Applications
[22:41] <bruenig> Hilikus, but why are you rsyncing, it defeats the point, rsync's purpose is to allow incremental backups by comparing two different sets of files, burning a dvd doesn't allow that
[22:41] <pythondasnake> Ok.. I will look around.. Might need some help here as I go through it :)
[22:41] <BarryToeman> brett_h: did you check to see if your font dpi has changed?
[22:41] <kazol> I can't access the NTFS partition at all from Ubuntu-it worked before.
[22:41] <Hilikus> bruenig of course it does, it burns new sessions where each session has the changes since the last backup
[22:41] <aBound> pythonasnake: alrighty!
[22:41] <zezom> I can't seen to resize any of my windows in the gnome version of ubuntu? what am I doing wrong?
[22:41] <pythondasnake> Oh cool.. DIdn't know Ubuntu had a python interp installed .. Neat, I like python
[22:41] <wols> kazol: mount
[22:42] <aBound> pythonasnake: Also has a Perl interpreter
[22:42] <kane77> zechs, what is impossible to do in terminal?
[22:42] <bruenig> Hilikus, hmmmm I have a hard time thinking rsync can do that
[22:42] <Agiofws> wols,    she umounted  ... and did apt-get update  and then apt-get install build-essential  and she got this error
[22:42] <kazol> wols: How come it worked perfectly before? In my experience, Ubuntu is as stable as Windows XP.
[22:42] <Agiofws> please insert the disk labeled: ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - release i386 (20071016) in drive /cdrom/
[22:42] <wols> Agiofws: then do what it says?
[22:42] <Hilikus> bruenig well, rsync will pipe the differences, then its up to the burning softaware
[22:42] <Agiofws> she has  wols
[22:43] <kane77> Agiofws, just edit the /etc/apt/sources.list and comment the entry for cd...
[22:43] <bruenig> Hilikus, I mean you would need to mount the disk and then somehow use rsync to compare the mounted files and then be able to surmise what has changed and then burn it again, the problem is that you won't just be appending files you will need to edit files, so it would require a complete remaster each time
[22:43] <frost0> kitofhawaii, thx for your help.
[22:43] <brett_h> BarryToeman: it's the same, all the other fonts are the same size just window title bars are huge
[22:43] <Hilikus> but i do want to keep all the previous sessions, so i would burn to like separate folders i guess
[22:43] <zechs> kane77 I have an installer on a cd, when i click it it wants to run in terminal, but it opens a new terminal and i dont have a chance to su, but i need to for setting the directory to install in
[22:43] <Agiofws> kane77,  comment or uncomment ?
[22:43] <kazol> wols: I have: UUID=0CF41F361887E334 /media/sda1     ntfs    defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[22:44] <kane77> Agiofws, comment
[22:44] <Hilikus> bruenig mmm i see what you mean
[22:44] <bruenig> Hilikus, rsync itself will be useless except if it can provide some sort of comparison of the state of the files, then you will need to be able to parse that comparison and tell growisofs exactly what to do with it
[22:44] <Kopfgeldjaeger> n8
[22:44] <bruenig> Hilikus, like if there is some rsync flag that just tells you what it would do that you could read with a script or something to then tell growisofs what to do
[22:44] <wols> kazol: there are errors. what are they?
[22:45] <BarryToeman> brett_h: are the fonts normal when compiz is off or disabled?
[22:45] <Undead_Zeus> How do I make my microphone's input louder??
[22:45] <kazol> wols: Mount is denied because NTFS is marked to be in use.
[22:45] <pythondasnake> I suppose:   Guided= use the largest continuous free space ??
[22:45] <jobu1543> kk, got the printer installed with cups; awesome (& thanks):  how do yo print from the tty?
[22:45] <kane77> zechs, why don't you open a terminal go to cd and run it?
[22:45] <wols> jobu1543: man lpr
[22:45] <jobu1543> thanks wols!
[22:45] <bruenig> Hilikus, why don't you just get a small drive and use that
[22:45] <pythondasnake> Undead_Zeus is there a booster
[22:45] <Undead_Zeus> I don't know
[22:45] <brett_h> BarryToeman: Actually disabling compiz and coming back now the fonts are fine... I guess they change when I reboot, not sure, hmph
[22:45] <zechs> kane77 how do you 'run it'
[22:46] <Hilikus> bruenig use what
[22:46] <aBound> pythonasnake: Guided uses the entire HDD
[22:46] <bruenig> Hilikus, get a small drive and use rsync
[22:46] <BarryToeman> brett_h: i had this issue too: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/141001/comments/14
[22:46] <pythondasnake> aBound but is says continuopus free space?  If xp is not on free space that doesn't sound right?
[22:46] <kane77> zechs, when you are in the directory just type ./<filename> (replace filename with filename you want to run
[22:46] <eses> !wine
[22:46] <ubotu> WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[22:46] <aBound> pythonasnake: Probably means unallocated space
[22:46] <zechs> kane 77 ahhh cool ok it works thx!
[22:46] <pythondasnake> mmm
[22:46] <kane77> zechs, np...
[22:47] <pythondasnake> Well, now I'm a bit nervous.. I don't want to delete any partitions by mistake
[22:47] <kane77> zechs, there usually isn't need to log in as root...
[22:47] <pythondasnake> Manual ?
[22:47] <aBound> pythonasnake: Unallocated space is free space on partitions
[22:47] <BarryToeman> brett_h: or add "-dpi 96" to >login window>security>configure Xserver>command line
[22:47] <soundray> aBound: no, it isn't
[22:47] <aBound> pythonasnake: Can't blame ya
[22:48] <aBound> soundray: Unallocated space is usually free space am I not right?
[22:48] <zechs> kane77 the need was for making the install directory in /usr i think
[22:48] <soundray> aBound: no
[22:48] <pythondasnake> I'm not sure.. I'll take your word for it but I would think it's unpartitioned space
[22:48] <kane77> zechs, yes, but I meant to log into gnome as root...
[22:48] <aBound> soundray: then you tell me what exactly it means
[22:49] <jelousbuddy> irc://irc.dingalingz.net/misfits
[22:49] <soundray> pythondasnake: you've got it right. What are you trying to do -- resize your Windows partition?
[22:49] <Undead_Zeus> How do I boost volume for my input device?
[22:49] <pike_> pythondasnake: worst case scenario you lose everything. we always need bug reports
[22:49] <pythondasnake> haha pike
[22:49] <pythondasnake> soundray Yes.. Unless it does this for you..
[22:50] <pythondasnake> I probably want atleast 120 GB I would think
[22:50] <aBound> soundray: As far as I know Unallocated space is just a partition that's empty
[22:50] <Undead_Zeus> How do I boost volume for an input device?
[22:50] <lauriexxx> help, can anyone guide me through upgrading from feisty fawn, to the new gutsy gibbon, can seem to do it via update manager, anybody got a good old command line???
[22:50] <kazol> wols: ?
[22:51] <masteroc> hey guys, i cant read any cd's from my cd drive, but ubutu shows that it is there, and i can burn cd's with it
[22:51] <pythondasnake> If I do it myself.. Where would I do that? BIOS ?
[22:51] <Undead_Zeus> How do I boost volume of an input device??
[22:52] <lauriexxx> help, can anyone guide me through upgrading from feisty fawn, to the new gutsy gibbon,I can't seem to do it via update manager, anybody got a good old command line???
[22:52] <pythondasnake> Undead_Zeus you're no boosting the volume.. I think your tunning the IMPEDence levels for a mic.. I would go to the source of your mic
[22:52] <jpolonia> hello , i would like to know , if i can find a kernel for ubuntu 7.10 for i686
[22:52] <jpolonia> hello , i would like to know , if i can find a kernel for ubuntu 7.10 for i686
[22:52] <Undead_Zeus> pythondasnake: How do I do that?
[22:53] <Chousuke> jpolonia: you should use the generic kernel
[22:53] <pythondasnake> To tell you the truth Undead_Zeus I have been using XP for so long I don't know using UBUNTU.. I would check your sound card where ever that i located and it normally would just have an option to boost
[22:53] <masteroc> why cant i read any cd's or dvd's from my drive, but i can still burn it
[22:53] <pythondasnake> I have been using UBUNTU for about 3 minutes :)
[22:53] <brett_h> BarryToeman: thanks
[22:54] <pythondasnake> Here I'll look for you Undead_zeus
[22:54] <jpolonia> the happend is , i have a laptop with amd64
[22:54] <jpolonia> the happend is , i have a laptop with amd64
[22:54] <aBound> pythonasnake: hehe you'll eventually get used to it
[22:54] <Undead_Zeus> thanks pythondasnake
[22:54] <Gekone> Buonanotte a tutti.
[22:54] <kbrooks> pythondasnake, (we know what you mean, but...) capitalizing names creates a mental nightmare when you read channel logs. also, it's unnecessary.
[22:54] <jpolonia> and ubuntu 7.10 is so slowly
[22:54] <jpolonia> and ubuntu 7.10 is so slowly
[22:55] <Agiofws> kane77,   apt-get install build-essential does not fiond the package on the cd
[22:55] <Agiofws> so the only way is net ?
[22:55] <delfos> hi, got a simple question, how could I or what should I write to keep using a console after executing 'sudo gedit', i mean keep the program openned and continue writing more commands in the same console?
[22:55] <Chousuke> jpolonia: your lines appear twice for some reason
[22:55] <aBound> jpolonia: wanting to find a kernel that supposedly supports 64-Bit?
[22:55] <pythondasnake> sorry
[22:55] <aLeSD> hi all
[22:55] <Chousuke> jpolonia: anyway, getting a i686 kernel isn't going to fix the slowness
[22:55] <Chousuke> an*
[22:55] <kane77> Agiofws, you wanted to install it from the cd?
[22:55] <aLeSD> how can I install mac4lin in the 7.10 ?
[22:55] <michael11> no ones on the xubuntu channel = (
[22:55] <aLeSD> I can't find the package in the repository
[22:56] <kbrooks> pythondasnake, no need to apologize a lot ;-) just type ubuntu, or Ubuntu
[22:56] <Agiofws> yes
[22:56] <Agiofws> kane77,
[22:56] <michael11> can anyone here me?
[22:56] <jpolonia> I need a kernel i686
[22:56] <Jack_Sparrow> I installed gutsy on a dell c610, setup the video and got desktop effects (all) working fine.  then after the update, I get no effects, xorg is still showing correct refresh rates etc.. any ideas
[22:56] <inzeo> micahel11: yes we here ya
[22:56] <kbrooks> pythondasnake, and i meant to say "capitalizing each letter of a name"
[22:56] <Cpudan80> michael11: Gotta ask your question first
[22:56] <inzeo> michael11: yes
[22:56] <kane77> Agiofws, sorry I misread then.. uncomment the line :)
[22:56] <Chousuke> jpolonia: again, why?
[22:56] <noname6243> What is the best way to to test for faulty memory
[22:56] <aBound> aLeSD: I think it has to be manually installed from a .tar package
[22:56] <mathen_> I managed to install a 'theme' for Ubuntu which I don't want, how do I reset to default?
[22:56] <void^> jpolonia: no you don't. focus on finding the real issue.
[22:56] <kane77> noname6243, mem86
[22:56] <inzeo> noname6243: have you tried the memory test off the live Ubuntu cd?
[22:56] <Cpudan80> noname6243: memtest86+, its one of the boot choices from grub
[22:56] <Agiofws> arggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
[22:56] <aLeSD> aBound: ah :(
[22:57] <michael11> i have gusty gibbon xubuntu on a comp with random parts and i need to figure out how to get youtube to come in a better fps
[22:57] <pythondasnake> Looks like it's under system Undead_Zeus
[22:57] <aBound> aLeSD: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin/ << Mac4Lin
[22:57] <mathen_> How do you reset all visual effects (themes, boarders, icons etc) to default?
[22:57] <Undead_Zeus> Thanks, pythondasnake :)
[22:57] <aLeSD> aBound: ok
[22:57] <noname6243> sorry X just crashed
[22:57] <soundray_> pythondasnake: sorry, I missed a bit -- how are you getting on?
[22:57] <aetos> .
[22:57] <noname6243> what did you say
[22:57] <aBound> aLeSD: Unless you can find a script to automatically install it for you
[22:57] <noname6243> lol
[22:57] <Undead_Zeus> pythondasnake: I am not sure that helps... but thanks anyways
[22:57] <kbrooks> michael11, may i do some computing education?
[22:57] <jpolonia> your think the kernel, it'ns the problem?
[22:57] <wols> michael11: what flash version and what videocard driver?
[22:57] <noname6243> What was the best way to test for faulty memory?
[22:57] <pythondasnake> System>>preferences Undead_Zeus
[22:57] <inzeo> mathen_: if you go to System - Preferences - Appearance - just select the Human theme
[22:57] <wols> noname6243: memtest
[22:57] <inzeo> mathen_: that should be the default theme
[22:58] <pythondasnake> soundray oh I just burned an iso image and am running off that..
[22:58] <mathen_> The border (at the top) still has the "Orange theme" and it's size 32
[22:58] <Chousuke> jpolonia: most likely it isn't.
[22:58] <michael11> i have xubuntu latest version i have installed flash player 9 for it and i need to figure out how to get the videos in a faster fps it is extremely slow fps and the frames don't keep up with the sounds
[22:58] <inzeo> mathen_: did you change the fonts?
[22:58] <Undead_Zeus> pythondasnake: i have already been to volume control, and turned up my microphone input, or at least i thought i have. no better results
[22:58] <aBound> jpolonia: When you installed Ubuntu did you download the 32-Bit version or 64-Bit version
[22:58] <inzeo> mathen_: the default font is serif i believe
[22:58] <jpolonia> what could it be?
[22:58] <noname6243> how can I fix : Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com gutsy/universe memtester 2.93.1-3.1
[22:58] <noname6243>   Could not connect to localhost:4001 (<IP_ADDRESS>). - connect (111 Connection refused)?
[22:58] <mathen_> There's a huge "Firefox" icon insted of the normal one..
[22:58] <jpolonia> 64 bit version
[22:58] <mathen_> which refuse me to change the size to lower then 32
[22:58] <pythondasnake> Undead_Zeus: I am looking
[22:58] <Jack_Sparrow> michael11: have you configed not only your video card but your monitor sync rates in your xorg
[22:59] <michael11> xorg? no i don't think so
[22:59] <inzeo> mathen_: is the firefox icon located in the panel?
[22:59] <aBound> jpolnia: Ubuntu still slow hmmm could be the many packages installed or just assuming a kernel issue
[22:59] <michael11> how do i do so Jack_Sparrow?
[22:59] <wols> Jack_Sparrow: how do sync rates slow down video? not as if there is any sync lower than 25fps...
[22:59] <Agiofws> http://img513.imageshack.us/my.php?image=olivesta1.jpg
[22:59] <mathen_> It is inzeo right to the Program
[22:59] <mathen_> If I click it, I get into the Program menu
[22:59] <Agiofws> kane77,  thanks though
[22:59] <inzeo> mathen: if you right click on the panel, what is the panel size?
[22:59] <michael11> how do i sync my moniter and video card?
[23:00] <mathen_> 23
[23:00] <wols> michael11: what videodriver do you use?
[23:00] <inzeo> mathen: hmm, not sure....
[23:00] <soundray_> pythondasnake: if you select a disk to install to and click Next, you'll get to choose a resize option.
[23:00] <michael11> i use a nvida one i don't know
[23:00] <jpolonia> aBound: 64 bit version
[23:00] <Chousuke> jpolonia: if you have 64-bit ubuntu installed and it's slow, try installing the i386 version
[23:00] <Ildjarn> kane77: I installed the one from the hp website and it still doesnt work
[23:00] <Jack_Sparrow> wols: If your card and monitor are not setup right they slow everything down
[23:00] <Chousuke> jpolonia: for most users, it's the safer choice.
[23:00] <gonnaeatthat> I need help with nvidia drivers, when i load them max screen res I can get is 800x600
[23:00] <wols> Jack_Sparrow: a monitgor never slows down a PC duh!
[23:00] <wols> gonnaeatthat: pastebin your xorg logs
[23:00] <pythondasnake> soundray: Well I made it that far and then was instructed I didn't have space.. I was confused because I figure there is no way I'm using all 500 GB with xp ?
[23:01] <gonnaeatthat> okay
[23:01] <Jack_Sparrow> wols: It effects what you see... duh
[23:01] <Ildjarn> kane77: When I did sudo ndiswrapper -m, it said module configuration already contains alias directive
[23:01] <gonnaeatthat> my xorg.conf?
[23:01] <michael11> wols: i use a Nvida driver i do not know witch one but how do i get it to sync?
[23:01] <wols> Jack_Sparrow: do you have a monitor that can display at a lower fps than 25?
[23:01] <mathen_> If I kill the entire panel, hwo dO I get it back.. . inzeo
[23:01] <Jack_Sparrow> wols: Clueless
[23:01] <wols> Jack_Sparrow: I know you are. please answer my question
[23:01] <inzeo> mathen_: i'm not sure
[23:02] <Jack_Sparrow> wols: Please joion me in ubuntu-ops if you want to diccuss it
[23:02] <kane77> Ildjarn, it's pretty tricky with these cards.. my friend has the same wireless, and for him it only works if both modules (ndiswrapper and bcm43xx) are enabled...
[23:02] <soundray_> pythondasnake: you shouldn't click on "Use largest continuous free space" if your partition covers your entire disk (even if it has free space)
[23:02] <michael11> i think i figured out why my fps was crappy
[23:02] <Ildjarn> kane77: I tried with both enabled, and with bcm43xx disabled
[23:02] <pythondasnake> Well I clicked Manual
[23:02] <wols> Jack_Sparrow: it's a ubuntu support question, not a ops question. calling others clueless might be a ubuntu-ops related matter I dunno, tho
[23:03] <Jack_Sparrow> wols: If you do not have your hardware setup correctly... you will not get the fps you hope for
[23:03] <Jordan_U> Ildjarn, What chipset do you have exactly?
[23:03] <jpolonia> i dosen't matter i have amd turion x2?
[23:03] <kbrooks> does anyone here want a computing lesson? :-)
[23:03] <AgentHeX> any idea why i sometimes get a black screen when a window opens fullscreen in compiz?
[23:03] <soundray_> pythondasnake: you shouldn't click that either. Only select the target hard disk drive.
[23:03] <Ildjarn> Jordan_U: BCM94311MCG mini PCI
[23:03] <Agiofws> http://img132.imageshack.us/my.php?image=lottiahf1.jpg http://img337.imageshack.us/my.php?image=3sheetspe4.jpg http://img513.imageshack.us/my.php?image=olivesta1.jpg
[23:03] <daco> not a ubuntu specific question but i seem lost in all net howtos. All I want to do is direct connection between linux and win98. Anybody free to guide me trough?
[23:03] <Jordan_U> AgentHeX, Nvidia card?
[23:03] <wols> Jack_Sparrow: the question is how the monitor influences the fps. it cannot. it has no bearing on berformance. it has bearing on framerate, on resolution, etc. but not on "speed" of the PC
[23:03] <AgentHeX> yeah.  actually, not so much a black screen as it is a black window
[23:03] <pythondasnake> soundray I'm reluctant to re-partition the drive because to be honest I have never done it before and don't want to experiment and end up losing valuables..
[23:04] <pythondasnake> I didn't see multiple partitions as an option
[23:04] <wols> pythondasnake: backup. and you will need to have some free unparititioned space for ubuntu ot install
[23:04] <pythondasnake> Yeah..
[23:04] <soundray_> pythondasnake: data you haven't backed up is data you don't want
[23:04] <aBound> pythonasnake: I can suggest that to partition your HDD you can download partedmagic or gparted burn them to a disc and then partition the HDD from there
[23:04] <Jordan_U> pythondasnake, You can also use wubi, but it's still Beta IIRC
[23:05] <Jordan_U> !wubi | pythondasnake
[23:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !wubi
[23:05] <ubotu> pythondasnake: wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[23:05] <jpolonia> i dosen't matter i have amd turion x2?
[23:05] <pythondasnake> I'll check it out thanks
[23:05] <cysmtz> /fsdf
[23:05] <waseem> hey, does anyone know how to connect a usb controller to ubuntu?
[23:05] <kbrooks> pythondasnake, read the factoid carefully. UNOFFICIAL
[23:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Jordan_U: wubi is not a good idea...  it can trash your ntfs
[23:05] <void^> wols: it can have an effect if you use vsync, or things like compiz that (try to) fix their framerate to the monitor's refresh rate by default
[23:05] <wols> Associat0r: ubuntu should support pretty much all usb controllers. what is the issue?
[23:05] <Jordan_U> Jack_Sparrow, How?
[23:06] <soundray_> wols: don't confuse. pythondasnake would be best served by the auto-resize function, which would create the needed free space by resizing.
[23:06] <mathen_> How do I reset all visual effects (border at the top "Program, System, etc") and icons at desktop and textformat and all such. I managed to install a theme which I can't get rid of. Please help me, quite new to ubuntu.
[23:06] <kbrooks> pythondasnake, you will receive no support for wubi here. maybe for the individual applications, but not for wubi itself.
[23:06] <wols> void^: but not slow down video playback. cause the framerate cannot go lower than 25 fps...
[23:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Jordan_U: Let me see if I can find the link.. but you are running linux on an ntfs system.. not ext3..
[23:06] <pythondasnake> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-78155.html  Undead_Zeus: hope this helps??
[23:06] <kbrooks> Jack_Sparrow, so?
[23:06] <waseem> well i connected the usb controller but dont know how to check if it is working
[23:06] <Jordan_U> Jack_Sparrow, I know how wubi works
[23:07] <matute> hi!!!
[23:07] <aBound> I used Wubi before tried it once didn't boot my machine up after a successful install
[23:07] <waseem> i tried in gxmame but it doesnt respond so im guessing its not working
[23:07] <wols> waseem: usb controllers can't be "connected": they are built into your mobo. you mean a usb device. which device?
[23:07] <void^> wols: oh, i've seen some really ugly configuration failures on compiz systems. but yes, it shouldn't affect X clients, just what the user gets to see.
[23:07] <waseem> a usb gaming pad
[23:07] <Jordan_U> aBound, Were you at least still able to boot Windows or did it completely screw up ntldr?
[23:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Jordan_U: I dont have the link in this pc...  but it was quite clear .. I googled up wubi problems and the list is endless.. all types of issues
[23:08] <aBound> Jordan_U: Wasn't able to boot Windows or Ubuntu
[23:08] <Associat0r> wols?
[23:08] <Ildjarn> So, anyone knows how to fix it?
[23:09] <enigmata> I need some help getting my audio to work in gutsy. I already tried troubleshooting at ubuntu forums.
[23:09] <enigmata> any suggestions
[23:09] <enigmata> ?\
[23:09] <soundray_> Ildjarn: fix what?
[23:09] <IamReck> enigmata, double click on the sound icon
[23:09] <Jordan_U> aBound, You should file a bug if you havn't already, wubi is supposed to be the "safer" way because it does not require repartitioning, that it screwed up ntldr is unacceptable ( and should be easily avoidable )
[23:09] <Loaxes> I hate myself and I want to die: I've been going at trying to get my laptop to dual boot for a week, I finally give up, and a week later, just now, after weeks of not touching it, I boot it up, and it gives me the option to dual boot.
[23:10] <Ildjarn> soundray_: I can't get my wireless to work
[23:10] <mathen_> I installed this theme, http://www.taimila.com/?q=node/3, it says I have to uninstall it manually. How do I do that?
[23:10] <Ildjarn> soundray-: When I did sudo ndiswrapper -m, it said module configuration already contains alias directive
[23:10] <IamReck> enigmata, unmute everything and turn it  up to full volume
[23:10] <aBound> Jordan_U: they probably fixed it though seeing as I did this a while back like a couple of months back
[23:10] <riddareralf> I accidentally removed my ~/config folder, what did I delete?
[23:10] <belkorin> Hey, does anyone know how I can set up my computer so that it shares internet that is coming in on the ethernet port over an ad-hoc wireless network?
 already did it
[23:10] <RichiH> !find wx-config
[23:10] <unop> riddareralf, ~/config or ~/.config ?
[23:10] <josspyker> belkorin:use firestarter
[23:10] <ubotu> Package/file wx-config does not exist in gutsy
[23:10] <aBound> Jordan_U: also seeing as Wubi is in Beta that's most likely the cause of the issue hehe
[23:11] <soundray_> Ildjarn: have you tried using a native driver?
[23:11] <Mo0oSaH> riddareralf you deleted all the configurations that you might have setup for certain programs
[23:11] <Ildjarn> soundray_: Yes. It installs fine, but doesn't find my wireless network
[23:11] <Jordan_U> aBound, What exactly happened, did you see a boot menu at all when you started the computer?
[23:11] <soundray_> Ildjarn: which one is it?
[23:11] <IamReck> enigmata, dunno what to tell you.  Are you sure all of your hardware is set up right?  speakers turned up and plugged in? etc.?
[23:11] <riotkittie> lulz. the unfunny one /msg'ed me with  a lame command to delete /
[23:11] <Ildjarn> soundray-: BCM94311MCG mini PCI
[23:11] <mathen_> Anyone have any idea?, please!
[23:12] <aBound> Jordan_U: The grub menu came up and I hit enter on Ubuntu then it just went black and stayed there
[23:12] <gonnaeatthat> who was the guy helping on nvidia issues?
[23:12] <riotkittie> errr wrong channel. ;x
[23:12] <riddareralf> unop, Mo0oSaH: I deleted the ~/config folder
 I also already set it to ALSA. I think its a driver issue. I'm running 82801h (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller
[23:12] <gonnaeatthat> I figured mine out had to change my screen properties to generic and set resolution that way, rather than use the model/serial
[23:12] <soundray_> Ildjarn: I think you should try the fwcutter approach
[23:12] <aBound> like it was stalling
[23:12] <IamReck> can't help you
[23:12] <riddareralf> were going to remove .cedega but it froze so I pressed twice and .config went also
[23:12] <Jordan_U> aBound, Did you use the wubi from the Ubuntu 7.10 install CD?
[23:12] <aBound> or waiting for something to load apparently didn't want to boot
[23:13] <belkorin> josspyker, do i have to have it start the firewall for the connection sharing to work?
[23:13] <unop> riddareralf, ~/config is not something i recognise -- it might be a folder for user configurations for programs you have installed -- in otherwords, all customizations you have made to applications have disappeared
[23:13] <waseem> Wols you there
[23:13] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray_: this might help him/her  http://invaleed.wordpress.com/2007/11/20/install-bcm94311mcg-wlan-mini-pci-ubuntu-710/
[23:13] <josspyker> belkorin:yes
[23:13] <aBound> Jordan_U: never knew Wubi was on the Ubuntu 7.10 LiveCD/Install CD
[23:13] <belkorin> ok
[23:13] <riddareralf> unop: I meant ~/.config ofcourse
[23:13] <crdlb> riddareralf: you mean ~/.config ?
[23:13] <mathen_> I installed this theme, http://www.taimila.com/?q=node/3, it says I have to uninstall it manually. How do I do that?
[23:13] <riddareralf> yes
[23:13] <soundray_> Jack_Sparrow: thank you. Did you see that, Ildjarn ^^?
[23:13] <unop> riddareralf, same same
[23:13] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[23:13] <riddareralf> unop: alright
[23:13] <aBound> Jordan_U: Was on Windows XP Home downloaded Wubi installed it from there rebooted tried to load Ubuntu screen went black
[23:14] <crdlb> oops scrolled up
[23:14] <Jordan_U> aBound, It's not really full Wubi, it just let's you boot from the install CD without changing any BIOS settings
[23:14] <josspyker> belkorin:it works for me,but I share interconnection wireless to eth
[23:14] <soundray_> Ildjarn: there is also a forums thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920 (I don't know how good it is)
 ALC262 Analog ALSA
[23:14] <crdlb> riddareralf: actually you don't lose much
[23:14] <insp12> I am having a white screen problem with Gutsy and Compiz, on an ATI card
[23:14] <Ildjarn> soundray_: Okay, I'll try that and be back
[23:14] <aBound> Jordan_U: I see
[23:14] <crdlb> riddareralf: gnome configuration goes in ~/.gconf
[23:14] <enigmata> Forgive me for whining, but I can't get any audio at all.
[23:14] <insp12> has anyone had experience with this?
[23:14] <bosco> i have a question about wifi in ubuntu
[23:14] <belkorin> josspyker, would the local network connected device be the wireless card that I'm trying to share over?
[23:14] <wols> insp12: what driver?
[23:14] <riddareralf> crdlb: thank god
[23:15] <enigmata> Forgive me for whining, but I can't get any audio at all.
[23:15] <confrey> hi everybody
[23:15] <insp12> wols: I have tried lots of different ones, and I was finally able to get the restricted ones working by tweaking the xconf
[23:15] <unop> hi
[23:15] <Jordan_U> enigmata, Is this a new problem or has sound never worked on this computer with Ubuntu?
[23:15] <crdlb> riddareralf: some apps use ~/.config though (all apps should)
[23:15] <wols> insp12: they don't support compiz (no aiglx support)
[23:15] <bosco> i am using an atheros wireless card in my laptop i have downloaded the windows drivers and tried to set it up via ndisgtk it does not work i then installed mad-wifi and it still does not work any help
[23:15] <insp12> wols: but now im also getting the Mesa thing that I keep reading about when I do the fglrxinfo
[23:16] <josspyker> belkorin:share the card which is connected to the internet
[23:16] <Jordan_U> wols, They do now, though very poorly
[23:16] <aBound> Well I'm off guys take it easy :-)
[23:16] <wols> insp12: then your fglrx drivers are not configured correctly either
[23:16] <crdlb> wols: technically the problem is that they don't support texture_from_pixmap. AIGLX is just a means to that end :)
[23:16] <insp12> The cube works, kind of, its 2 panels but they rotate and have reflection
 Hasn't worked since I installed Gutsy
[23:16] <wols> Jordan_U: they have drivers new enough for it in gutsy?
[23:17] <bosco> i am using an atheros wireless card in my laptop i have downloaded the windows drivers and tried to set it up via ndisgtk it does not work i then installed mad-wifi and it still does not work any help
[23:17] <insp12> wols: should I reinstall the ones from the ATi site?
[23:17] <belkorin> josspyker: so if eth0 is my ethernet card, and eth1 is my wireless card, i should have both internet connected network device and local network connected device set to eth0?
[23:17] <waseem> my usb game pads are showin up in device manager but dont respond in gxmame (a game)
 I'm running 82801h (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller
[23:17] <Jordan_U> enigmata, wols The AIGLX compatible drivers were released after Gutsy, but I do *not* recommend upgrading to the newer drivers, they are buggy.
[23:17] <wols> insp12: they aren't supported
[23:17] <crdlb> insp12: oh it's working fine then
[23:17] <josspyker> belkorin:thats the idea
[23:17] <insp12> but there is a white screen instead of the windows
[23:17] <gonnaeatthat> bosco you have the nm-applet installed?
[23:18] <crdlb> insp12: just change General Options>Desktop Size>Horizontal Virtual Size in ccsm
[23:18] <crdlb> oh
[23:18] <Jordan_U> enigmata, Is everything turned up and unmuted in alsamixer?
[23:18] <wols> Jordan_U: hence: no compiz with fglrx. except with xgl, but lets not go there please
 Some noise is better than none...
[23:18] <gonnaeatthat> also bosco did you hit the function key related to wifi?
 Some noise is better than none...
[23:18] <insp12> ! that sounds pretty good, brb
[23:18] <dis4ever> sometimes i got disconnected (wireless). any ideas
[23:18] <bosco> gonnaeatthat:  nm-applet  explain
 All systems are loud.
[23:18] <josspyker> belkorin:it works for me the other way around,wireless internet to eth0
[23:18] <dis4ever> what is the best binary news reader
[23:18] <talcite> hey guys, I'm having a problem starting ubuntu server
[23:18] <gonnaeatthat> bosco it is necessary to get wireless to work with some cards hold on let me see the real name
[23:19] <talcite> it's stuck on loading rc.local scripts
[23:19] <telexicon> How can I tell ubuntu to load a framebuffer driver on boot? I want to use vga=791 but all it lets me use are the simple vga console resolutions instead of vesafb ones
[23:19] <insp12> crdlb: what should I change it to?
[23:19] <IamReck> enigmata, idk what to tell you, can't help sry.
[23:19] <insp12> crdlb: its at 2 right now
[23:19] <wols> talcite: what did you put in rc.local then?
 How do I get those buggy drivers installed?
[23:19] <talcite> wols: absolutely nothing
[23:19] <talcite> wols: I checked it, it just says return 0
[23:19] <crdlb> insp12: 4, but if you have white windows then your problem is not just that
[23:19] <soundray_> talcite: can you boot in recovery mode?
[23:19] <belkorin> josspyker: so what do I do now to make the ad-hoc network?
[23:19] <unop> telexicon, have you tried reconfiguring the xserver ?
[23:19] <IamReck> enigmata, i do not know. google your hardware and linux driver.
[23:19] <wols> talcite: then it does this and returns immediately
[23:19] <talcite> soundray_: lemme try
[23:19] <gonnaeatthat> bosco you have wifi enabled?
[23:20] <IamReck> thats as far as I can help you.
[23:20] <telexicon> unop, no this is for the console.. i dont have X installed (ubuntu-server)
[23:20] <enigmata> Hold on..
[23:20] <gonnaeatthat> this is just to start from the beginng
[23:20] <teknoprep> hey all
[23:20] <pythondasnake> Partition magic looks easy enough ..
[23:20] <bosco> gonnaeatthat: yes
[23:20] <insp12> crdlb: yeah its not just that sadly, but it sounded like a good tip, thanks! any other possibilities?
[23:20] <pythondasnake> Anyone ever use this?
[23:20] <teknoprep> whats up with this... i updated ubuntu ... and now it won't hibernate anymore?
[23:20] <telexicon> unop, it just says undefined video number
[23:20] <teknoprep> wtf
[23:20] <soundray_> pythondasnake: dangerous, though. Have you backed up?
[23:20] <bascule> telexicon: it seems you need to recompile a kernel to do this, console switching to and from X gets problematic with vesafb
[23:20] <dis4ever> what is best newsreader please
[23:20] <insp12> is Envy worth trying again, or will it mess up the xorg.conf?
[23:20] <gonnaeatthat> you have a function key on the laptop? and just making sure if you hit the fn /wifi key if light will come on
[23:20] <bosco> gonnaeatthat: now when i type in sudo modprobe ndiswrapper it says module not found unlike before
[23:20] <pythondasnake> soundray: semi :p
[23:20] <soundray_> teknoprep: don't use this abbreviation here please
[23:21] <teknoprep> soundray_, is that the best advice you can offer?
[23:21] <teknoprep> soundray_, heh
[23:21] <gonnaeatthat> go to system->admin->network
[23:21] <wols> bosco: what atheros chip is it? madwifi is usually better to use than ndiswrapper
[23:21] <IamReck> enigmata, have you done all of the following things?
[23:21] <telexicon> bascule, hmm ok.. i guess ill just deal with it remotely
[23:21] <IamReck> !sound
[23:21] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[23:21] <pythondasnake> Yeah I have a lot of code saved on xp and if I lost it I would probably commit suicide
[23:21] <josspyker> belkorin:just try
[23:21] <teknoprep> !hibernate
[23:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hibernate - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[23:21] <gonnaeatthat> check if roaming mode is enabled or if you even have wifi listed
[23:21] <talcite> soundray_: it has no problem booting into recovery mode
[23:21] <Chousuke> pythondasnake: so is it backed up?
[23:21] <talcite> soundray_: but I have no idea why it's not booting into normal mode...
[23:21] <talcite> soundray_: any ideas?
[23:21] <pythondasnake> For the most part
[23:21] <teknoprep> pythondasnake, back it up to a flash drive or external hdd
[23:22] <bosco> gonnaeatthat:  05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5006EG 802.11 b/g Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)
[23:22] <teknoprep> pythondasnake, if you need to code in windows why not just use vmware server with a windows xp running in it ?
[23:22] <pythondasnake> Yeah.. I suppose you make good points
[23:22] <teknoprep> pythondasnake, on your ubuntu destkop ?
[23:22] <belkorin> josspyker: so go to "create wireless network" on the nm-applet?
[23:22] <wols> talcite: what other S99 scripts are there?
[23:22] <talcite> wols: S99?
[23:22] <soundray_> talcite: while in recovery mode, have a look at /var/log/syslog and see if you find any entries relating to the failed boot
[23:22] <ikonia> Do we have anyone in here with a non-flash enabled ubuntu 7.10 desktop. I'd like someone to install the flash-nonfree plugin package from the command line to verify the md5sum contained in the ubuntu meta package
[23:22] <wols> talcite:yes
[23:22] <gonnaeatthat> bosco you network manager installed
[23:22] <teknoprep> non-flash ?
[23:22] <Jordan_U> pythondasnake, Anything that important to you should be backed up anyway, what if your HDD dies tomorrow?
[23:22] <gonnaeatthat> it should work you may need network manager
[23:22] <kitofhawaii> pythondasnake: $99 for a usb hard drive is cheap insurance :)
[23:23] <bosco> gonnaeatthat: yes
[23:23] <teknoprep> wt heck is non-flash enabled?
[23:23] <wols> teknoprep: someone who hasn't flash installed right now
[23:23] <josspyker> belkorin:give it a try
[23:23] <insp12> has anyone gotten compiz to run on an ATI X card?
[23:23] <pythondasnake> Yeah Like I said with the exception of some small applications everything is backed up on disks
[23:23] <teknoprep> oh adobe flash
[23:23] <insp12> I have seen some videos on youtube that show it is possible
[23:23] <wols> insp12: what ati chip do you have?
[23:23] <insp12> x1300
[23:23] <pythondasnake> Coding through vitual server might be slow:P
[23:23] <wols> insp12: not really
[23:23] <belkorin> josspyker: no good, that disconnects me from eth0
[23:23] <pythondasnake> To answer whoever said that's question
[23:24] <teknoprep> ikonia, ok here is what you need to do
[23:24] <gonnaeatthat> you have ths trength signal in your toolbar?
[23:24] <mikebeecham> Hi Guys....I have recently installed Ubuntu 7.10 and have just tried my IPOD nano on it for the first time....for some reason I can delete tracks off it...but when I go to add tracks Rhythmbox tells me that there is no space left?
[23:24] <insp12> wols: i have seen that its supported, at least on teh youtube "show off my linux" videos
[23:24] <ikonia> teknoprep: pardon ?
[23:24] <teknoprep> ikonia, the tar.gz files gets saved to a temporary location after you try to apt-get it
[23:24] <wols> insp12: it is not
[23:24] <ikonia> teknoprep: yes, I'm aware of what happens in the install thanks.
[23:24] <soundray_> pythondasnake: don't use partition magic. Your best chance of ending up with a working dual-boot system is if you let Ubuntu resize your Windows partition. Follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall
[23:24] <wols> insp12: you can try with xserver-xgl. good luck, you will need it
[23:24] <josspyker> belkorin:try to find the wireless connection on the other computer?
[23:24] <gonnaeatthat> how can i enter someones name prior to my response my xchat doesnt seem to want to
[23:25] <teknoprep> ikonia, then do this... cd /var/cache/flashplugin-nonfree
[23:25] <mikebeecham> Would anyone have experience with Rhythmbox and Ipod's?
[23:25] <belkorin> josspkyer: definitly disconnects me
[23:25] <mikebeecham> do I need to reformat?
[23:25] <insp12> man, its been such a fight, I can't believe there are no leads. I feel like its so close, I fought with xservers and all that during the week
[23:25] <teknoprep> ikonia, then do this ... tar xvzf install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[23:25] <inzeo> mikebeecham: i've used an ipod with rhythmbox before
[23:25] <bosco> gonnaeatthat: so what do i do now lol
[23:25] <insp12> and now I finally have the "restricted" drivers running
[23:25] <kitofhawaii> pythondasnake: it can be slow, but it depends. generally when running it in a vm environment, people trim down the OS anyway, so it winds up running comparably to the bloat they'd run if it were a fully installed desktop
[23:25] <talcite> soundray_: it's really weird... It just stops at the cron jobs, after the NTP sever exits
[23:25] <insp12> and at a pretty high res
[23:25] <ikonia> teknoprep: what are you telling me to do ?
[23:25] <gonnaeatthat> bosco you have signal strength in toolbar?
[23:25] <ikonia> teknoprep: I'm aware of how the flash plugin works
[23:25] <insp12> but this white screen wont let me see anything
[23:25] <gonnaeatthat> or a networking icon?
[23:25] <teknoprep> ikonia, oh nvm then
[23:25] <talcite> soundray_: and it has a bunch of messages about IPtables blocking packets
[23:25] <bosco> gonnaeatthat: no not at all
[23:25] <soundray_> talcite: is it a fresh install?
[23:25] <mikebeecham> inzeo...it's almost as though it did delete the tracks, but they are still on there...the error message I get is "Error Transferring Track.  No space left of the resourc"
[23:26] <gonnaeatthat> okay reinstall network manager
[23:26] <teknoprep> ikonia, do you know why hibernate isn't owrking after i update ?
[23:26] <ikonia> teknoprep: I'm asking someone to attempt to install it via the command line to verfiy the md5 sum of the package it downloads
[23:26] <gonnaeatthat> applications add/remove programs
[23:26] <teknoprep> oh ok
[23:26] <gonnaeatthat> find it that way
[23:26] <ikonia> teknoprep: why would I know that, you've told me nothing about your problem
[23:26] <bosco> gonnaeatthat: ok doking that now
[23:26] <teknoprep> ikonia, did you fix it i suppose?
[23:26] <gonnaeatthat> see if it loads
[23:26] <talcite> soundray_: well "fresh" yes, but it's been awhile since I've booted it up
[23:26] <belkorin> josspkyer: when I connect to a wireless network, it disconnects me from the wired network
[23:26] <ikonia> teknoprep: did I fix it ? did I fix that ?
[23:26] <ikonia> what
[23:26] <josspyker> belkorin,it works for me,but only sharing ra0 (wireless connected to the router) eth0 to an old laptop
[23:26] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham: there may be a trash folder on your "Device"  now...
[23:26] <waseem> has anyone here used gxmame before?
[23:26] <talcite> soundray_: almost 2 months actually
[23:26] <kitofhawaii> pythondasnake: i.e., i find people use about 1/4 or less of the features in the vm environment so it all equals out
[23:26] <pythondasnake> Maybe I will just put together a machine and have it be 100 percent Ubuntu :p..
[23:26] <teknoprep> ikonia, well hibernate was working at fresh install 100% ok... now hibernating doesn't work at all... after i did the ubuntu updates
[23:26] <soundray_> talcite: did you do anything to configure iptables?
[23:26] <teknoprep> ikonia, i didn't change anything.. just did updates
[23:27] <talcite> soundray_: I did configure them, yes
[23:27] <insp12> k, I installed xserver-xgl
[23:27] <pythondasnake> mm Kitofhawaii: I will check it out thanks
[23:27] <talcite> soundray_: that shouldn't be a problem though should it?
[23:27] <insp12> any last hints before I reboot and fight this out again?
[23:27] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: not that I can see
[23:27] <ikonia> teknoprep: that pretty much zero information to go on, ask the channel rather than one person. Report as much inforamation as you can
[23:27] <insp12> I know to pray to the linux gods and all that
[23:27] <deckard> how do I restart sound server on my laptop
[23:27] <teknoprep> ikonia, already asked ... no one knows anything of this
[23:27] <inzeo> mikebeecham: are you looking at your IPOD through nautilus as well?
[23:27] <teknoprep> ikonia, or is too busy
[23:27] <insp12> but anything else I should keep in mind?
[23:27] <talcite> soundray_: you've got to be kidding me... It was waiting for me to press enter...
[23:27] <soundray_> talcite: no, it shouldn't -- just wanted to make sure this wasn't some unintended effect of something else
[23:27] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham: I know my generic had that issue... look for hidden files
[23:27] <teknoprep> ikonia, what can you do ya know.. other ppl are having this issue.. no real fix tho
[23:28] <deckard> somehow when coming back from hibernate I lose sound
[23:28] <talcite> soundray_: I feel like an idiot now >.>'
[23:28] <bosco> gonnaeatthat: did that and still nothing
[23:28] <mikebeecham> inzeo...not through sudo...but through normal nautlius
[23:28] <soundray_> talcite: on what?
[23:28] <ikonia> teknoprep: why are you telling me this ?
[23:28] <gonnaeatthat> okay bosco hold on
[23:28] <talcite> soundray_: at loading rc.local scripts 0.o
[23:28] <deckard> is there away to restart it ??
[23:28] <teknoprep> ikonia, you seemed to know what you are talking about.. but i see you actually have no clue and will leave you alone now
[23:28] <inzeo> mikebeecham: okay, and like Jack_Sparrow said, did you try showing hidden files?
[23:28] <cs82> can anyone help me with my problem? I have a gateway c210x every version of gusty I install the display goes out if I unplug the power
[23:28] <talcite> soundray_: ahh well, thanks for your help =D
[23:28] <soundray_> talcite: hmm, strange. Glad you located the problem, though
[23:28] <ikonia> teknoprep: I have no clue, you have no idea what I do/do not know
[23:28] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: inzeo I have tried Ctrl+H....nothing extra shows up
[23:28] <pythondasnake> Don't unplug the power :P

[23:29] <deckard> somehow when coming back from hibernate I lose sound, is there a way to restart
[23:29] <inzeo> have you tried mikebeecham: unmounting and remounting?
[23:29] <deckard> sound services
[23:29] <teknoprep> ikonia, and thats enough for me to not talk to you now
[23:29] <taff> ikonia download  easy umbuntu  from their  web site
[23:29] <soundray_> teknoprep: you seem to have a talent at making yourself unpopular
[23:29] <teknoprep> ikonia, you seem very insecure also
[23:29] <pike_> deckard: maybe sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[23:29] <mikebeecham> inzeo
[23:29] <ikonia> teknoprep: because you have given me no information on your problem other than "it doesn't suspend"
[23:29] <mikebeecham> nope
[23:29] <teknoprep> soundray_, sometimes
[23:29] <slaytanic> I just configured twinview for my dual head setup and I've got a problem, lots of windows pop up in the middle, even the login screen which is really annoying. Any way around that?
[23:29] <deckard> pike_, thanks trying
[23:29] <teknoprep> ikonia, doesn't hibernate
[23:29] <ikonia> taff: why do I need easy ubuntu ?
[23:29] <teknoprep> ikonia, after doing updates
[23:29] <ikonia> teknoprep: thats not enough information
[23:29] <teknoprep> ikonia, i would expect this to be a common problem
[23:29] <gonnaeatthat> bosco: you said you finished loading madwifi drivers right
[23:30] <ikonia> teknoprep: its not a common problem, there are many reasons hibernation can fail
[23:30] <teknoprep> ikonia, i find no answer on the forums except a possible problem with nvidia xorg.conf settings but that doesn't apply to me as i use ATI
[23:30] <bosco> gonnaeatthat: soposidly how do i check that
[23:30] <kitofhawaii> teknoprep: what video card do you have? also, if you expect top flight support, you know...you can pay for it. we're just trying to help
[23:30] <gonnaeatthat> im not sure lol

[23:30] <gonnaeatthat> hold on let me look too
[23:30] <mikebeecham> inzeo: unmounting (removing) and mounting again showed nothing new
[23:30] <teknoprep> kitofhawaii, ibm t40 thinkpd
[23:31] <ikonia> teknoprep: I'm aware of many reasons for hibernation to work/fail, but I'll keep that information for people who don't insult me
[23:31] <gonnaeatthat> is your wireless status led lit up on laptop?
[23:31] <gonnaeatthat> if madwifi driver is loaded it should be working
[23:31] <teknoprep> ikonia, thats fine i'll be able to fix it on my own .. just asked here to see if i could fix it faster
[23:31] <ikonia> taff: I am perfectly capable of installing flash, re-read my original question of why I wanted someone to do a test .

[23:33] <ikonia> taff: I believe the md5sum of the tar file used in the ubuntu meta package has changed on the adobe site, however I'd like someone to try a clean install of flash to verify that it is not my mirror issuing an outdated package and that the md5 has changed as there is no bug launched
[23:33] <ikonia> helpMeplease123: there are official support channels for that
[23:34] <Alyxander> ok heres something interesting
[23:34] <bildpunkt> if i watch a move (mplayer-nogui) after 10-15 minutes the screen gets blank and i have to move my mouse to get the screen active again. i disabled all settings in system -> preferences -> screensaver but it did not help. what can i do?
[23:34] <helpMeplease123> yes the support channel are pretty quiet
[23:34] <helpMeplease123> :(
[23:34] <Alyxander> my home page actually causes a 10% increase in cpu activity
[23:34] <ikonia> helpMeplease123: use the support mailing list or if possible forums
[23:34] <Alyxander> but google.com doesent
[23:34] <Alyxander> wonder y?
[23:34] <ikonia> helpMeplease123: this channel is for ubuntu support
[23:35] <ikonia> Alyxander: different code on the pages
[23:35] <insp12> holy shit its working
[23:35] <Alyxander> maybe one is netvibes the other is plain old google
[23:35] <nickrud> bildpunkt: you can run xset -dpms before running mplayer , that should disable the screen blanking
[23:35] <helpMeplease123> hmm ok
[23:35] <ikonia> insp12: there is NO need for that language
[23:35] <FluxD> !language | insp12

[23:39] <helpMeplease123> oh ok... but some people can install that i read
[23:39] <ikonia> inzeo: not %100 but I don't think it's in the stable repo
[23:40] <ikonia> inzeo: could be wrong though
[23:40] <Jack_Sparrow> ikonia: did you need help with sunbird?
[23:40] <Jordan_U> For some reason I need to hold down keys for ~ 1 second before a letter is actually typed

[23:40] <nickrud> rflol
[23:40] <helpMeplease123> im the one who need help with sunbird
[23:40] <inzeo> ikonia: yeah, thats possible - i know i had installed it through add/remove and used it for a bit without problem
[23:40] <ikonia> Jack_Sparrow: no, I just packaged it up myself
[23:40] <ikonia> kane77: could be, when I last used it there wasn't
[23:41] <Jack_Sparrow> same here
[23:41] <kane77> ikonia, there is.. I'm installing it right now.. thanx for reminding me ;)
[23:41] <ikonia> kane77: ooh thats good to know, what version is out ?
[23:41] <sarixe> is it possible to get madwifi working from a livecd, only having a wireless connection?
[23:41] <Jordan_U> Ahh, slow keys was somehow activated ;)
[23:42] <Jack_Sparrow> helpMeplease123: Here are my notes on sunbird  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47301/
[23:42] <Jordan_U> sarixe, Yes, if your card is supported by the madwifi drivers that come on the LiveCD
[23:42] <littlebear> ok i have a result
[23:42] <nickrud> ikonia: it's 0.5 in the repos
[23:42] <littlebear> Download done.
[23:42] <littlebear> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[23:42] <littlebear> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[23:42] <ikonia> nickrud: thanks
[23:42] <kane77> ikonia, 0.5
[23:42] <littlebear> yeah same result as always
[23:42] <ikonia> littlebear: I've just found the bug in launchpad
[23:42] <sarixe> Jordan_U : Atheros 5005G
[23:42] <soldats> littlebear, can y ou reinstall it
[23:42] <sarixe> bleh
[23:42] <SoteriouLoucas> hello
[23:43] <ikonia> soldats: it will not work
[23:43] <sarixe> Jordan_U : Atheros AR5005G
[23:43] <sarixe> that's the one
[23:43] <inzeo> littlebear: i think there is a way to deactivate the md5 check, but i simply used an older package that matched the md5 sum
[23:43] <ikonia> littlebear:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/174438
[23:43] <SoteriouLoucas> is anybody willing to help me ? i have a problem during uptading my system
[23:44] <littlebear> im running on 32 bit
[23:44] <kane77> SoteriouLoucas, can you give a bit more detail?
[23:44] <SoteriouLoucas> ok
[23:44] <soldats> !ask | sot
[23:44] <ubotu> sot: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[23:44] <soldats> !ask | SoteriouLoucas
[23:44] <ubotu> SoteriouLoucas: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[23:44] <soldats> oops
[23:45] <SoteriouLoucas> ok when i am trying my system
[23:45] <Jordan_U> sarixe, I don't know if that is supported, do you have any reason to think it wouldn't be? Is it very new?
[23:45] <soundray_> SoteriouLoucas: keep it on one line please
[23:45] <kane77> SoteriouLoucas, and can you _please_ keep it in one line?
[23:45] <SoteriouLoucas> It is impossible to install or remove any software. Please use the package manager "Synaptic" or run "sudo apt-get install -f" in a terminal to fix this issue at first.
[23:45] <SoteriouLoucas> i run the command into terminal and this is what i get :
[23:45] <SoteriouLoucas> The following extra packages will be installed:
[23:45] <SoteriouLoucas> patch
[23:45] <inzeo> littlebear: do you have an AIM/yahoo/gmail, account?
[23:45] <tophat> anyone know how to get the BMC43xx (4318) to get to montir mode?
[23:46] <SoteriouLoucas> i am doing the command in the terminal and result is : Media change: please insert the disc labeled
[23:46] <SoteriouLoucas> 'Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016)'
[23:46] <SoteriouLoucas> in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter
[23:46] <soundray_> SoteriouLoucas: please put the full output of sudo apt-get -f install on the pastebin
[23:46] <sarixe> Jordan_U : no, it's supported with the madwifi i use here on debian, but i was just wondering if it was possible to get madwifi working on ubuntu's livecd
[23:46] <pythondasnake> What Java IDE's work with Ubuntu ?
[23:46] <sarixe> Jordan_U : because i wasn't sure if it came pre-installed or not
[23:46] <kane77> tophat, for me (4311) it works with bcm43xx module
[23:46] <kitche> tophat: bcm43xx sort of doesn't do monitor mode yet I believe or it does but it doesn't work well at least on Linux
[23:46] <inzeo> SoterioLoucas: go to System - Administration - Software Sources and uncheck the CD as a source
[23:46] <littlebear> inzeo: yes but i never use it lol
[23:46] <soundray_> SoteriouLoucas: oh, if it's that, just go to System-Administration-Software sources and disable the CD
[23:46] <kane77> pythondasnake, netbeans, eclipse, IDEA...
[23:46] <SoteriouLoucas> thanx i will try it
[23:47] <inzeo> littlebear: haha, i was going to send you the tarball that I used for flash that works correctly (older version for now though)
[23:47] <daedalus> pythondasnake: have you tried eclipse?
[23:47] <tophat> so it wont work with the ndiswrapper drivers from windows, just the restricted drivers?
[23:48] <littlebear> lol i remember now i need to be registered to send pm's lol
[23:48] <Jordan_U> sarixe, It comes pre-installed, and should "just work" ( Ubuntu uses network-manager by default )
[23:48] <kane77> kitche, for me it works okay.. I was doing wardriving with kismet and it monitored alright...
[23:48]  * littlebear goes to register again lol
[23:48] <aleka> What is a good application to record stereo output from my soundcard other than Audacity? For some reason audcacity is not working for me and am wondering what other options there are...
[23:48] <inzeo> littlebear: hahahah
[23:48] <sarixe> Jordan_U : ok, thanks
[23:48] <kitche> kane77: it might work but kismet has bcm43xx has expermental which means it's not stable :)
[23:48] <daedalus> SoteriouLoucas if you don't want to mess with the disc you can comment it out in /etc/apt/sources.list
[23:48] <soundray_> aleka: have you disabled esd? Sometimes audacity will work once you have done that.
[23:49] <froh> aleka: if audacity dont work you probably have a os/setup problem
[23:49] <axod> Hi I just installed ubuntu 7.10 on a T42, it was working fine, then I disabled tap to click on the touchpad, now I can move the mouse, but not click anything, and the keyboard won't do anything either... any special keys I can try to bring it back to life?
[23:49] <kane77> kitche, good to know that.. (who read the docs ;) )
[23:49] <littlebear> dam someone allready registered it lol
[23:49] <aleka> soundray_: any pointers on how to check if esd is disabled  or how to disable it?
[23:49] <aleka> I was assuming I was using ALSA
[23:49] <inzeo> littlebear: haha
[23:49] <soundray_> aleka: System-Preferences-Sound -- on the second tab
[23:49] <kitche> kane77: and also bcm43xx driver only supports certain bcm43xx anyways
[23:49] <froh> aleka: ps aux|grep esd
[23:50] <axod> caps lock doesn't do anything either :(
[23:50] <daedalus> axod, take a look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf and remove the offending line.
[23:50] <aleka> it is disabled
[23:50] <Jack_Sparrow> ikonia: are you still here... may I pm..?
[23:50] <kane77> kitche, yes, I'm kind of lucky with my 4311 as it is somewhat supported.. I still cannot connect to WPA, but that's probably because I'm dumb..
[23:51] <froh> aleka: do you get a device busy error?'
[23:51] <littlebear72> inzeo: registered lol
[23:51] <selinuxium> Hi all, is there a way of opening microsoft document imaging files in ubutu> (*.mdi)
[23:51] <aleka> I usually get error messages about the sound IO already being in use (which is what I want since I am trying to record), and one time it got working.. it was recording input from my mic
[23:51] <axod> daedalus: but alt ctrl backspace won't work either
[23:52] <inzeo> littlebear72: okay, is it an AIM account? if so, what's the sn?
[23:52] <SoteriouLoucas> thanx guys
[23:52] <SoteriouLoucas> i think is fixed
[23:52] <inzeo> SoteriouLoucas? did that work for you?
[23:52] <SoteriouLoucas> good night from me
[23:52] <froh> aleka: the command lsof lists open files, look for /dev/asound
[23:52] <littlebear72> did you get my pm i sent you ?
[23:52] <kane77> selinuxium, don't think so... last time I got .mdi I had to go to windows download viewer and export it to some better format...
[23:52] <daedalus> axod: I odn't know of any key combo to get you back, you might try restarting in recovery mode and fixing it fromt he command line...
[23:52] <SoteriouLoucas> no soundtrays commaand work
[23:52] <inzeo> littlebear72: oh yeah, i did, okay, I'll send it there along with the instructions
[23:52] <selinuxium> kane77: I was worried that might be the case! :)
[23:53] <draik> My friend's monitor is both TV and computer monitor. For some reason, it won't work on the tv/monitor. It is set to Monitor, but nothing displays. Where should I start looking?
[23:53] <littlebear72> thanks
[23:53] <aleka> I get "Error while opening sound device. Please check the output device settings and the project sample rate"
[23:53] <littlebear72> ill need that instructions lol
[23:53] <kane77> selinuxium, :/ there might be some, but I don't know of any...
[23:53] <daedalus> axod there is a program called gsynaptics that might help configure the mouse...
[23:54] <froh> aleka: you can set samplerate in audacity....
[23:54] <nickrud> SoteriouLoucas: that would be the first thing anyone said, but there might be more wrong; run  sudo apt-get -f install  in a terminal, and paste the whole output to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[23:54] <Jack_Sparrow> draik: I have one of those dual units, the max res is only 800x600  make sure you are not trying to push it higher than it can take
[23:54] <froh> aleka: some kard like 48000 (hint)
[23:54] <dis4ever> a good binary newsreader please
[23:54] <draik> Jack_Sparrow: It has gone up to 1024x768, which is where it was set.
[23:54] <froh> aleka: card even
[23:54] <froh> bye now
[23:54] <Jack_Sparrow> draik: Just tossing out suggestions..
[23:54] <SoteriouLoucas> nickrud i have done this also
[23:55] <SoteriouLoucas> and works
[23:55] <SoteriouLoucas> thanx
[23:55] <draik> Jack_Sparrow: I know. I thank you for that. Just letting you know.
[23:55] <inzeo> littlebear72: ok, it should be on the way
[23:55] <aleka> OK, for playback and recording , audacity is using Device: OSS: /dev/dsp.. should that be changed to ALSA?
[23:56] <nickrud> dis4ever: pan is about it for gnome
[23:56] <littlebear72> thanks inzeo
[23:56] <pythondasnake> Oh somebody answered me. I have tried Eclipse and Netbeans
[23:56] <jobu1543> I have a broken software RAID1 that drops to  BusyBox upon boot. Does anyone have any suggestions/urls that might help?
[23:56] <littlebear72> ok now my second issue is
[23:56] <dis4ever> how to watch the headers nickrud
[23:56] <aleka> and under ALSA, I have 3 options with my soundcard name and front,read and center ~)
[23:56] <pythondasnake> For simple stuff I like Textpad
[23:56] <inzeo> littlebear72: let me know if that works
[23:56] <littlebear72> i want tu run a vmware based product
[23:56] <pythondasnake> Light weight ..  bad for debugging though
[23:56] <dis4ever> i downloaded headers but don't know how to see them
[23:56] <littlebear72> or
[23:56] <pythondasnake> So I guess it works with Ubuntu was my question
[23:56] <littlebear72> a different one that does same thing
[23:57] <soundray_> !enter | pythondasnake
[23:57] <ubotu> pythondasnake: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[23:57] <inzeo> littlebear72: i would recommend virtualbox http://www.virtualbox.org
[23:57] <nickrud> dis4ever: ?? look at the header pane?
[23:58] <pythondasnake> Ok, no problem
