[12:00] <arrick1> gnomefreak, you familiar with burning iso images?
[12:00] <cmpalmer> NoUse: uncommenting 'extension=mysql.so' in php.ini fixed it
[12:00] <zcat[1] > dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will go through the whole configuration for you, card drivers, keyboard and mouse, resolutions, monitor timing..
[12:00] <cmpalmer> NoUse: thanks
[12:00] <cmpalmer> !NoUse++
[12:01] <ompaul> arrick1, in gnome point nautilus at the image right click and choose write image - make sure you choose the right burner and you choose a low speed
[12:01] <xanavim> which apps use gstreamer plugins?
[12:01] <arrick1> ompaul, I did that and got a bad image 3 times in a row
[12:01] <HymnToLife> xanavim> totem does by default
[12:01] <HymnToLife> amarok too
[12:01] <Isyth> sounds excellent. I'll get right to it. Thanks!
[12:02] <xanavim> ah, good... amarok hopefully can handle a playlist with 28,000 songs... let's find out...
[12:02] <HymnToLife> arrick1> k3b is your friend :p
[12:02] <mustard5> Isyth, just choose the default settings for any questions you don't know the answers to
[12:02] <Mercutio150> thanks for all the help guys
[12:02] <ralf> Lol, pathetic have you read this article?: http://shelleytherepublican.com/2006/04/linux-european-threat-to-our-computers.html  It makes me angry
[12:02] <ompaul> arrick1, check the image md5sum
[12:02] <arrick1> if only I had a burner on my ubuntu box, this sucks
[12:02] <missing> Isyth: choosing the default answeres will usually work for any installation
[12:02] <missing> i believe it autodetects yoru settings
[12:03] <Isyth> mustard5 & missing, that's what I did when installing the thing in the first place, but apparently something went wrong then?
[12:03] <HymnToLife> ralf> this just CAN't be true
[12:04] <zcat[1] > rofl.. they bith about linux and in the same paragraph praise IBM.. an american company.  Y'all will see me again if I have new problems.
[12:04] <Isyth> See you!
[12:04] <squiddle> does anyone has an idea why my urxvt could stop reading the .Xdefaults?
[12:04] <mustard5> Isyth, k
[12:04] <zcat[1] > it must be a pisstake, nobody could be that dumb.
[12:05] <HymnToLife> ralf> i it's meant to make fun of the American I think it's brilliant
[12:05] <HymnToLife> I just can't imagine it could be serious
[12:05] <ralf> It's stupid
[12:05] <ralf> Read the other posts and oyu see, this shelley is a freakin patriot
[12:06] <zcat[1] > nah, reading through it is totally comedy..

[12:12] <Belathor> Hi, I just upgraded my kernel to 686. Do I have to remove the 386 kernel? If so, how would I go about it? Thanks!
[12:12] <roostishaw> ok, i think im just gunna try to install it w/o changeing my sources.list first
[12:13] <calamari> Belathor: you don't have to removie it, but you can remove it via synaptic or apt
[12:13] <zcat[1] > Belathor: optional.. just ignore it, they don't take up much space
[12:13] <Belathor> ok, alright. Thanks!
[12:14] <zcat[1] > bah, I added plF repo and I still don't have winetools ;(
[12:14] <calamari> speaking of kernels.. does using a SMP kernel slow me down if I only have one CPU?
[12:14] <robinsw> Guys! :-) What's the command that works like CHMOD, but isn't CHMOD. :-S
[12:14] <crimsun> calamari: negligibly.
[12:14] <robinsw> CH something...
[12:14] <Uhirax> chown

[12:15] <troytroy> having prob with the cupsys server cant authenticate me to setup printer
[12:15] <crimsun> calamari: that's because our kernel is smrt.
[12:15] <crimsun> calamari: [4294671.045000]  SMP alternatives: switching to UP code
[12:16] <roostishaw> zcat[1] ,  then wut... im at the repos menu

[12:18] <zcat[1] > paste the whole thing into the custom repo dialog..
[12:18] <dli> crimsun, each supported CPU adds  approximately eight kilobytes to the kernel
[12:18] <capiCrimm> or what zcat[1]  said...
[12:18] <roostishaw> ok... one sec
[12:18] <mcf501> does anyone have any experience with OpenGL? i am having an issue with linking to the right files see (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13666) any help would be great thanks (on ubuntu dapper, with mesa installed from source)
[12:19] <crimsun> dli: which is completely negligible
[12:19] <capiCrimm> mcf501, I do, but in ubuntu would probably be a better channel.
[12:19] <crimsun> dli: if 8 KB is an issue, you wouldn't be using our config regardless.
[12:19] <zcat[1] > brb;
[12:19] <dli> crimsun, you can always rebuild the kernel
[12:19] <roostishaw> zcat[1] ,  wait
[12:19] <capiCrimm> mcf501, wait, this is ubuntu... I'm getting my channels mixed up.
[12:19] <roostishaw> zcat[1] ,  now just do sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 acidrip?
[12:19] <elisabeta> OMG
[12:19] <crimsun> dli: yes, I know.
[12:20] <elisabeta> ubuntu f'n sucks
[12:20] <elisabeta> you are all homosexuals
[12:20] <crimsun> elisabeta: leave now.

[12:20] <HIGH-FREQ> thank u crimsun
[12:21] <Aquafina> I am sorry to pop in but does anyone know which channel I shoud join to get some help in fixing a piece of assembly code ?
[12:21] <dli> crimsun, will ubuntu support reiser4fs? looks like ext3 is the default
[12:21] <crimsun> dli: not out of the box.
[12:21] <Reepicheep> are there ubuntu ftp repositories that I can use? I tried replacing http with ftp just to see, but no luck, and can't seem to find it on google
[12:21] <capiCrimm> mcf501, what errors in it giving you when you compile?
[12:21] <mcf501> capiCrimm: i think my makefile is wrong, but im not sure how to fix it.

[12:22] <dli> Reepicheep, ask ubotu about easysource
[12:22] <crimsun> dli: ext3 is the default; use expert mode in the text installer to choose another fs.
[12:22] <mcf501> capiCrimm: undefined reference to `glMatrixMode' etc...
[12:22] <mcf501> capiCrimm: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13666
[12:23] <capiCrimm> mcf501, hrm, which packages did you install?
[12:23] <Cruel_dog> I need help
[12:23] <MetaMorfoziS> which program can open *.ai ? (adobe illustrator's vector graphic file?)
[12:23] <Cruel_dog> I'm new to Ubuntu
[12:23] <fiendskull9> MetaMorfoziS, inkscape might
[12:23] <fiendskull9> MetaMorfoziS, sudo apt-get install inkscape
[12:23] <MetaMorfoziS> fiendskull9: no
[12:23] <MetaMorfoziS> i'm tried
[12:24] <capiCrimm> MetaMorfoziS, inkscape or maybe gimp
[12:24] <Cruel_dog> How can you set to modify the starting screen resolution? (its too high, I see lines)
[12:24] <MetaMorfoziS> hm gimp
[12:24] <MetaMorfoziS> i try

[12:25] <mcf501> capiCrimm: i assumed they came with all the packages i needed
[12:25] <Nihil85> hi all. Which was the command to set the keyboard layer with the terminal?
[12:25] <capiCrimm> Cruel_dog, if starting you mean the CLI, look in /boot/grub/menu.lst and you'll need to search the web for the vga= line to put in there.
[12:25] <Cruel_dog> ?
[12:25] <Cruel_dog> I'm NEW to Ubuntu, and LINUX
[12:25] <MetaMorfoziS> hm gimp
[12:25] <MetaMorfoziS> when i try open with it

[12:25] <MetaMorfoziS> it popups a dialog "Loading postscript"

[12:28] <zcat[1] > Cruel_dog: reconfigure xorg to do only resolutions your monitor can handle.. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:28] <capiCrimm> Cruel_dog, you'll need to depk-reconfigure xorg and go through the menu.
[12:28] <gnomefreak> !enter
[12:28] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[12:28] <troytroy> gnomefreak: yes
[12:28] <mcf501> capiCrimm: libglu1-mesa and mesa 6.4.2, they could be clashing..
[12:28] <Cruel_dog> how to do that?
[12:28] <capiCrimm> correction, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg"
[12:29] <gnomefreak> troytroy: keep it in #ubuntu+1 its a dapper issue
[12:29] <dabaR> cafuego: ping
[12:29] <dli> capiCrimm, isn't it xserver-xorg?
[12:29] <zcat[1] > Cruel_dog: ctrl-alt-F1 and log in.
[12:29] <capiCrimm> mcf501, then uninstall the ones from mesa, the packages are a much better option.

[12:29] <zcat[1] > then type   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:29] <Cruel_dog> lemme reboot PC
[12:29] <gnomefreak> troytroy: there are also many bugs on cuysys
[12:29] <capiCrimm> dli, your correct. Cruel_dog follow replace xorg with xserver-xorg
[12:29] <gnomefreak> the_mug: sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[12:29] <the_mug> gnomefreak: thanks
[12:29] <dli> the_mug, you can use dpkg to install deb, but you need apt-get/synaptic instead, most likely
[12:29] <gnomefreak> the_mug: yw
[12:30] <troytroy> calamari: bugs?
[12:30] <mcf501> capiCrimm: the problem is i need to be using the same packages as the ones at my uni, (well i doubt it would make much difference) but the code needs to be portable
[12:30] <capiCrimm> gnomefreak, wasn't ubuntu planning an extension where you could click the .deb and it would install?
[12:30] <Nihil_85> LinuxJones, are you here?
[12:30] <gnomefreak> capiCrimm: yes but its not in breezy afaik
[12:30] <zcat[1] > that would suck.. ppl will start sending linux viruses as deps and morons will click them.

[12:31] <capiCrimm> mcf501, hrm. linking is my weakness.
[12:31] <benji_123456789> someones gotta know a direct connect hub
[12:31] <benji_123456789> ????
[12:31] <capiCrimm> mcf501, and that seems to be your problem.
[12:31] <Reepicheep> dli, I can't find any ftp repositories on easysource, it only seems to give me http
[12:31] <gnomefreak> ubuntu-desktop is able to be removed
[12:31] <gnomefreak> !ubuntu-desktop
[12:31] <ubotu> I guess ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading
[12:31] <the_mug> dli: I'm not using synaptic.. all command line for me :-)
[12:31] <mcf501> capiCrimm: i'll read up on linking

[12:32] <the_mug> skype

[12:38] <paradizelost> it's the hpa tftpd server
[12:39] <paradizelost> it's home is /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp
[12:39] <zcat[1] > paradizelost: bad idea.. safe enough if it's just running dhclient or something..
[12:39] <aLPHa_LeaK> well...im paranoid, paradizelost, so that option is not available ;o)
[12:39] <gnomefreak> most programs that need root access will run at startup anway
[12:39] <paradizelost> aLPHa_LeaK: good
[12:39] <zcat[1] > gnomefreak: true, but never assume ;0
[12:39] <aLPHa_LeaK> you can add it to init...
[12:39] <gnomefreak> zcat[1] : thats why i asked him what program
[12:41] <zcat[1] > ru: what program do you need to run as root, perhaps we can find a more sensible place to run it?
[12:41] <Elazar> Is there a way I can copy something from a local hard drive to a Samba share via the Terminal?
[12:42] <pablo_> hi
[12:42] <zcat[1] > mount the share first..
[12:42] <pablo_> iv configured a user (profile..loaded programs configured then etc) and now i want to apply these sttings (i guees everything its under home of that user) to all other users
[12:42] <pablo_> so i did sudo cp -rv /home/draco/ /home/draco1
[12:42] <pablo_> but when i log wiht draco1 user
[12:42] <Cruel_dog> done
[12:42] <pablo_> all icons apear wiht a "locked" sign in the uper riht conrner
[12:42] <paradizelost> pablo_: don't forget to chown
[12:42] <pablo_> and many programs do not even load
[12:42] <zcat[1] > I think smbclient can copy stuff like ftp-style but it's not the best answer
[12:42] <AlmtyBob> how do I set my box up so I can tightvnc right after boot without having to login?
[12:42] <fredrich> ack...i keep getting "wlan0: link is not ready" when inserting my prism2 usb nic
[12:43] <fredrich> anyone have any idea why?
[12:43] <Elazar> zcat: Ah, thanks.
[12:43] <zcat[1] > pablo_ try cp -a next time, it will preserve ownership
[12:43] <dli> fredrich, check your dmesg for errors
[12:43] <paradizelost> AlmtyBob: add x11vnc -scale 0.75 -rfbauth /home/dan/.vnc/passwd -bg -q -forever -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -gone 'xscreensaver-command -lock' -shared
[12:43] <paradizelost> to your /etc/gdm/Init/default file
[12:44] <paradizelost> you will need to apt-get install x11vnc
[12:44] <paradizelost> and obviousely change /home/dan/.vnc/passwd to where your vnc password file is stored
[12:44] <MystaMax> hello!
[12:44] <Elazar> zcat: Is there a way to get a progress bar or something on a cp call?
[12:44] <Nihil85> hi all. Which was the command to set the keyboard layer with the terminal?
[12:44] <paradizelost> the -scale does server side scaling
[12:44] <fredrich> dli, ok..found some errors there...how do i paste it without spamming the channel
[12:44] <zcat[1] > !pastebin
[12:44] <ubotu> pastebin is probably http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[12:45] <dli> fredrich, pastebin.com , ask ubotu about paste bin
[12:45] <menkent> i'm having partitioning nightmares while setting up breezy... can someone priv message me and help walk me through this real quick?
[12:45] <paradizelost> AlmtyBob: lets you vnc to the console of the machine
[12:45] <zcat[1] > Elazar: no.
[12:45] <dli> menkent, pm me
[12:45] <paradizelost> AlmtyBob: this is assuming that you are using gdm of cours
[12:45] <fredrich> dli, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13668
[12:45] <delmar> Can anyone please tell me what the default port is for the Esound daemon? there is nothing in the /etc/esd.conf to indicate the port.
[12:46] <MystaMax> I have installed ubuntu breezy onto a Dell Dual Xeon 2.8, but its only seeing one processor, why is this?
[12:46] <RandolphCarter> delmar: netstat | grep esd ?
[12:46] <RandolphCarter> well, netstat -a, shows the listen port too
[12:47] <paradizelost> MystaMax: not sure if ubuntu has SMP enabled by default
[12:48] <delmar> RandolphCarter, yep. looks like a wierd port tho
[12:48] <MystaMax> paradizelost: thanks for the reply. Do I have to reinstall ubuntu to enable it?
[12:48] <zcat[1] > install an sMP kernel. I'm fairly sure the installer doesn't detect this..
[12:48] <marlene_> oi
[12:48] <paradizelost> MystaMax: it would be a kernel recompile
[12:48] <marlene_> hy
[12:48] <aLPHa_LeaK> MystaMax, how do you know that it only recognizes 1 processor?
[12:48] <zcat[1] > recompile?? wtf??
[12:48] <paradizelost> MystaMax: save you from completely re-installing
[12:48] <zcat[1] > It's a package!!
[12:48] <MystaMax> whoa
[12:48] <Elazar> zcat: When I use the name of the mount as the destination, it tries to copy it to a directory with the same name. :\
[12:48] <paradizelost> zcat[1] : ok. i'm used to gentoo where kernels are concerned...
[12:48] <delmar> doesnt seem to work either
[12:49] <paradizelost> MystaMax: follow zcat[1] 's advice, use synaptic and install an SMP enabled kernel
[12:49] <marlene_> oi  tudo bom : )
[12:49] <aLPHa_LeaK> n8
[12:49] <MystaMax> zcat: can you point me in the right direction
[12:49] <MystaMax> paradizelost: I looked at the system monitor and it only listed one processor
[12:49] <RandolphCarter> delmar: hmm :/ can't help beyond that, nothing in the manpages or my esd.conf
[12:49] <zcat[1] > sudo apt-get install linux-686-smp  should do it.
[12:49] <paradizelost> MystaMax: use synaptic - sudo synaptic, find the latest 2.6 kernel that says smp after it
[12:49] <MystaMax> u guys rock!
[12:50] <MystaMax> u know that right?
[12:50] <delmar> RandolphCarter, u would think that important information about the port, and how to set the port, would be in the docs somewhere... but there is no man page for esd.conf and very little in /usr/share/doc/esound
[12:50] <Briguy> I'm trying to set up X-Chat to work with Hebrew. I installed the culmus hebrew font package. However, when I go to change my character fonts, it doesn't come up as an option. To allow for Hebrew viewing support from others users I changed the server character set to UTF-8.
[12:50] <spikeb> MystaMax: hehe
[12:50] <RandolphCarter> delmar: I know, I'd never thought to check that before, but it does seem poor.  There's a link in the manpage to esdctl, which doesn't seem to be installed either
[12:50] <menkent> dli, u there?
[12:50] <delmar> RandolphCarter, all i want to get working is TeamSpeak with Esd because as it is, not using Esd, it hogs the audio hardware and doesn't let anything else play.
[12:51] <GaiaX11> Anyone there knows how to set up a wireless card in ubuntu?
[12:51] <Briguy> delmar: I have the same problem. It's a problem with the sound servers. I experience it with ALSA as well.
[12:51] <paradizelost> GaiaX11: in gnome, right click on teh network iccon at the top right
[12:51] <dli> menkent, yes
[12:51] <paradizelost> goproperties
[12:51] <RandolphCarter> hmm, if you can use a file-based port, try /tmp/.esd-****/socket
[12:51] <paradizelost> go configure
[12:51] <paradizelost> should be listed
[12:51] <paradizelost> just set it up how you want
[12:52] <menkent> u get my messages?
[12:52] <GaiaX11> Do I need wireless-tools; ndiswrapper and the kernel-headers?
[12:52] <skippper> can someone help me?
[12:52] <delmar> Briguy, yeah. pain in the ass
[12:52] <zcat[1] > paradizelost: you wish.. bet it's one that requires ndis and stuff :)
[12:52] <paradizelost> menkent:  you may want to say who your asking
[12:52] <paradizelost> skippper: don't askto ask
[12:52] <paradizelost> skippper: what do you need?
[12:52] <dli> menkent, no, you have to register your nick, /msg NickServ
[12:53] <skippper> i installed ubuntu on one of my drives and windows on my other, now i just want ubuntu and the windwos as extra space.
[12:53] <delmar> you know what.. for all Linux's nices... it sure has a whole lot of nasties. i guess thats what u get with a gnu/free/community-contributed platform vs one u pay for.
[12:53] <paradizelost> zcat[1] : just covering the easy onesfirst...
[12:53] <GaiaX11> Or those packs are already there
[12:53] <zcat[1] > GaiaX11: what paradizelost says.. see if it's already detected.. many cards are
[12:53] <RandolphCarter> delmar: if you think windows documentation about something like this would be better, think again :/
[12:53] <Briguy> delmar: It's not a bad issue, you just have to set up multiple sound servers, which I never succeeded in doing lol.
[12:54] <delmar> RandolphCarter, actually their KB is not too bad :P.
[12:54] <paradizelost> delmar: try getting any support out of M$ for anything w/o having to pay for it or being told to reload
[12:54] <PVZ> how can i enable writing permissions for folders or files?
[12:54] <paradizelost> PVZ: chmod
[12:54] <PVZ> chmod only works for reading,right?
[12:54] <GaiaX11> This card is not detected
[12:54] <paradizelost> PVZ: man chomd
[12:54] <delmar> paradizelost, that i have to agree with
[12:54] <paradizelost> anyone know how to change the damn colors in irc?
[12:54] <paradizelost> the bright yellow is too tough to read...
[12:54] <menkent> tra la
[12:54] <paradizelost> can't see who's typing to me
[12:54] <paradizelost> :D
[12:55] <zcat[1] > paradizelost: Last time I called MS (client had support contract) I spend over an hour on the phone, they didn't tell me anything I hadn't already found in google and in the end the answer I got was 'reinstall'
[12:55] <RandolphCarter> delmar: pfft :/ w/o the windows bashing, this is kind of an odd request, afaik your program should use the ESD api's to detect which port to use :/
[12:56] <skippper> paradizelost: can yuo help
[12:56] <ircbrowser99> NoUse: oftpd appears to have done the trick (sudo apt-get install oftpd, then sudo dpkg-reconfigure oftpd) thanks:)
[12:56] <zcat[1] > http://www.joke-archives.com/microsoft/microsoftvspsychicfriends.html
[12:56] <paradizelost> skippper: what did you need?
[12:56] <paradizelost> skippper: ask the question
[12:56] <skippper> i installed ubuntu on one of my drives and windows on my other, now i just want ubuntu and the windwos as extra space.
[12:56] <skippper> how can i do that
[12:57] <ubuntu> hi!
[12:57] <delmar> So what I have done so far is... i have blown away about 800gigs of my favorite shows and movies... and taken the plunge.. converting my main box almost entirely to linux. i still have a winXP bootup .. just in case... but i have converted about 800gig of disk to an LVM.. and am preparing to settle in and start using Linux apps, where i would have used a windows one to do whatever.. and holey crap there is heaps of stuff out there.
[12:57] <paradizelost> apt-get install gparted
[12:57] <paradizelost> use that to delete the partition and format it to your desired filesystem
[12:58] <delmar> So, what can someone recommend for an ftp client? I used Filezilla on windows, and there is a beta of it for Linux but its VERY beta and not very good.... anyone have any suggestions?
[12:58] <skippper> i did that, but then my linux drive wouldnt boot it gave me "Operating system not found"
[12:58] <paradizelost> zcat[1] : do you know how i can change these colors?
[12:58] <zcat[1] > paradizelost: what client?
[12:58] <arrinmurr> delmar: konqueror ;)
[12:58] <paradizelost> zcat[1] : in a terminali type irc
[12:58] <foldingstock> delmat: gftp is nice
[12:58] <paradizelost> standard w/ ubuntu
[12:58] <ircbrowser99> delmar you have command line ftp available to you while you look for a gui ftp client
[12:58] <foldingstock> delmar: gftp is nice*
[12:58] <delmar> arrinmurr, prefer something with features :P
[12:58] <paradizelost> skippper: which drive do you have your bootloader on?
[12:58] <Elazar> zcat[1] : When I use the name of the mount as the destination, it tries to copy it to a directory with the same name. :\
[12:58] <emiliano> hola a todos
[12:59] <skippper> my linux drive
[12:59] <zcat[1] > load up epic4 and a nice script..
[12:59] <emiliano> no se como es esto
[12:59] <paradizelost> skippper: is the windows drive the first one?
[12:59] <skippper> yes
[12:59] <emiliano> hay alguien que hable espaol???
[12:59] <zcat[1] > Elazar: cp /mount/foo/* /dest/
[12:59] <HymnToLife> !es
[12:59] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:59] <Briguy> OH!
[12:59] <paradizelost> skippper: then you'll need to re-run grub and tell it to install the bootloader on /dev/hda
[12:59] <paradizelost> or (hd0)
[12:59] <Briguy> Delmar: It also has to do with your soundcard
[01:00] <Briguy> Delmar: I just remembered lol.
[01:00] <emiliano> how can I do to use ubuntu.es?
[01:00] <skippper> Do i need grub if im just installing 1 OS?
[01:00] <paradizelost> skippper: because /boot is on the linux drive, but the bootloader is installed in the primary master MBR
[01:00] <ubuntu> hola emiliano
[01:00] <emiliano> hola
[01:00] <paradizelost> skippper: you need either grub or lilo, because w/o them you have nothing to tell the computer how to boot
[01:00] <Briguy> Delmar: Certain soundcards can support multiple events, it's different from linux than it is with windows, windows emulates it.
[01:00] <zcat[1] > skippper: do you need NTLDR if you're only installing windows?
[01:00] <emiliano> no se bien como es esto
[01:00] <HymnToLife> emiliano> just type /join #ubuntu-es
[01:00] <ubuntu> creo que tenemos que movernos a  #kubuntu-es
[01:00] <skippper> idk
[01:00] <emiliano> at this window?
[01:00] <nicolito> hello
[01:01] <ubuntu> aqui no quieren a la gente que habla espanol
[01:01] <Elazar> zcat[1] : No, I'm trying to copy something from the local system to the share.
[01:01] <emiliano> ok
[01:01] <delmar> Briguy, dunno about that.. i mean... it works mint with lots of "events" as you say... under windows... its all late model hardware.
[01:01] <zcat[1] > yes, you need a bootloader even if it's only one OS..
[01:01] <emiliano> so lets talk english? jajaja
[01:01] <skippper> and 1 last question, How can i set a chmod a folder and set the chmod for all files in thatfolder, (includingones thta come in with different chmods)
[01:01] <nicolito> how can I share a folder included in my home dir, with other users??
[01:01] <paradizelost> emiliano: what if i'd rather talk engrish
[01:01] <paradizelost> :D
[01:01] <delmar> Briguy, i think its going to be more the application... the sound server needs to hog the sound hardware, and the applications need to talk to the sound server.
[01:01] <emiliano> its the fist time Im using ubuntu
[01:01] <paradizelost> nicolito: add it to your smb.conf if you plan on sharing over the network
[01:01] <ubuntu> I am new in linux world
[01:02] <basti_> Hello, I need help for installing nVidia Drivers
[01:02] <emiliano> me too
[01:02] <ubuntu> do you help me _
[01:02] <basti_> first: How to see what kernel I am running?
[01:02] <Elazar> basti_: Search the wiki for nvidia.
[01:02] <ru> chown: changing ownership of `windows2': Function not implemented
[01:02] <zcat[1] > !nvidia
[01:02] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:02] <ru> anyone know why I would be getting that
[01:02] <nicolito> paradizelost, no, share in my own computer, but with other users
[01:02] <paradizelost> basti_: you will need to apt-get install build-essential linux-headers
[01:02] <basti_> Elazar, yes, I found a howTo
[01:02] <boubbiii111> hi could someone help me installing a network card in ubuntu i have no idea how
[01:02] <boubbiii111> please
[01:02] <Briguy> delmar: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=968039
[01:02] <basti_> I installed them all
[01:02] <basti_> I found a howto, but the installer still wants the kernel-sources
[01:03] <basti_> but where to get?
[01:03] <zcat[1] > passbe: no, you just need to apt-get install nvidia-glx and reconfigure xorg.. too easy
[01:03] <paradizelost> basti_: then apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:03] <boubbiii111> please
[01:03] <basti_> hmm
[01:03] <basti_> okay
[01:03] <boubbiii111> hi could someone help me installing a network card in ubuntu i have no idea how
[01:03] <basti_> paradizelost, and then?
[01:03] <zcat[1] > para, sorry: no, you just need to apt-get install nvidia-glx and reconfigure xorg.. too easy
[01:03] <paradizelost> boubbiii111: do an lspci, is it seen there
[01:03] <basti_> hm
[01:03] <basti_> but I need the nvidia audio drivers!
[01:03] <boubbiii111> yo have to guide me throu
[01:03] <Elazar> zcat[1] : No, I'm trying to copy something from the local system to the share.
[01:03] <gnomefreak> boubbiii111: you asked now give someone time to look at the question and see if they can answer you please
[01:03] <capiCrimm> when I hit c-m F1 I go to a console, then if I do m F7 I go to a black screen, anyone know how to get back to gnome? alt, seems to no longer work
[01:04] <zcat[1] > ahhh.. ok sorry
[01:04] <paradizelost> basti_: you said nvidia drivers
[01:04] <ru> Why would chown be saying "Function not implemented"
[01:04] <basti_> nvidia platform drivers
[01:04] <boubbiii111> where
[01:04] <nicolito> please, how can I share a folder (with all the permissions) in one computer, with all the users??
[01:04] <basti_> I have a nvida chipset
[01:04] <zcat[1] > normally nvidia drivers means nvidia graphics drivers ;)
[01:04] <delmar> Briguy, at the moment.. it looks like TeapSpeak supports setting of a port address.... ie. will talk to Esound, but im not sure what port to tell it to use...
[01:04] <zcat[1] > never doen nvidia platform drivers .. hopefully never will :)
[01:05] <paradizelost> basti_: apt-get install linux-headers
[01:05] <basti_> paradizelost, I done that!
[01:05] <Biodieseler> need help. just got my ubuntu laptop online and need to upload more applications (like audacity)... please HELP.
[01:05] <basti_> But first I must see what kernel I am running
[01:05] <zcat[1] > uname -a
 lspci ?
[01:05] <skippper> and 1 last question, How can i set a chmod a folder and set the chmod for all files in thatfolder, (includingones thta come in with different chmods)
[01:05] <Briguy> delmar: First try the instructions in that post. I know it seems simple. first open a terminal and do killall esd   then, make sure your system's output is using ALSA
[01:06] <paradizelost> basti_: do what zcat[1]  said
[01:06] <delmar> Briguy, thats fine, but then what is TeamSpeak going to do?
[01:06] <paradizelost> skippper: chmod -Rfv ### /folder/name
[01:06] <Biodieseler> Can anyone help me?
[01:06] <paradizelost> skippper: that will get everything that's there.
[01:06] <delmar> Briguy, i can tell it to use a path ie /dev/dsp or /dev/audio .. or I can tell it to use a port for a sound server
[01:06] <paradizelost> skippper: as far as all files after that, i'm not sure, maybe zcat[1]  can help
[01:06] <Briguy> delmar: restart teamspeak and see how it work? Or are you saying TeamSpeak is requiring a port before it can run?
[01:06] <skippper> including files that come in with differetn chmods?
[01:07] <paradizelost> skippper: it will change the perms of any file currently in that dir. or a subdir
[01:07] <boubbiii111> anyone could pm me to help me install adriver for my network card i have no idea what to do please
[01:07] <duckdown> Hey all, how can I add /etc/init.d/tor and /etc/init.d/privoxy to be enabled by default at runtime?
[01:07] <eXistenZ> How can I know what sound driver is alsa using
[01:07] <Briguy> delmar: Try both /dev's if not, i'm not sure :-/
[01:07] <Briguy> delmar: i'm a newbie to :-(
[01:07] <zcat[1] > skippper: make it sticky .. chown developers.developers /ballmer/ ; chmod g+rws /ballmer/  now when anyone writes to ballmer it will get owned by developers group and readable by all developers..
[01:07] <paradizelost> duckdown: create a symbolic link from it to /etc/rc2.d/S##tor
[01:08] <delmar> Briguy, I can't ue a port on a sound server because i don't know the port number or details.. and what i have tried didnt work... and when i use the path ie /dev/dsp  it hogs the resource and nothing else seems to be able to use it
[01:08] <zcat[1] > because ballmer is sticky
[01:08] <zcat[1] > I always wanted to use that as an example :)
[01:08] <BHSPitLappy> hi all
[01:08] <paradizelost> delmar: are you using OSS or ALSA
[01:08] <duckdown> paradizelost: Hrmm, usually I type /etc/init.d/tor start and /etc/init.d/privoxy start ... will that be a problem?
[01:08] <eXistenZ> zcat[1] , How can I check what sound driver is alsa using?
[01:08] <delmar> paradizelost, for what...
[01:09] <boubbiii111> anone
[01:09] <boubbiii111> anyone
[01:09] <mike930> does grub 1.5 support splashimages, if so how many colors?
[01:09] <paradizelost> duckdown: that's a manual restart, the /etc/rc#.d folders tell the computer what to load at what runlevel
[01:09] <Briguy> delmar: Thats really weird, when I used Teamspeak it never asked me for a port :-( i'm sorry, btw what game are you playing?
[01:09] <duckdown> paradizelost: Beauty, thanks man
[01:09] <delmar> paradizelost, Cedega is set to use ALSA right now... and TeamSpeak .. has no such options... you set the path ie /dev/(bah) or .. can set a network port address.
[01:09] <basti_> ah,. works now

[01:09] <basti_> i had the wrong headers installed
[01:09] <basti_> thank you
[01:09] <paradizelost> delmar: the sound system, OSS locks, alsa will usually let more than one thing use it
[01:09] <delmar> Briguy, any game running under Cedega will have no sound if TeamSpeak is running and set to use /dev/dsp or /dev/audio
[01:10] <duckdown> paradizelost: Well, how would I run my 'wpa_supplicant -Dmadwifi -iath0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' at runtime then?  Then I'd be TRUELY set
[01:10] <paradizelost> duckdown: i could tell you how in gentoo, but i'm not sure in ubuntu
[01:10] <delmar> paradizelost, so it would seem that TeamSpeak is using OSS .. when ot connects directly to the likes of /dev/dsp .. hence the problem
[01:10] <duckdown> paradizelost: Doh, thanks man, no worries
[01:10] <paradizelost> duckdown: you could add it to your users's .xinitrc so it runs when you log in...
[01:10] <Briguy> delmar: Thats right I think you can configure Cedega to use OSS on game start up
[01:10] <delmar> paradizelost, so its because TeamSpeak is not using ALSA that is the issue
[01:10] <paradizelost> delmar: most likely
[01:10] <skippper> zcat[1] : this is for my server, hwo would i make chmod default readable
[01:11] <paradizelost> skippper: man chmod
[01:11] <delmar> Briguy, hence why i told it to use ALSA because OSS is a bit more.. ghey. :P
[01:11] <paradizelost> skippper: learn what the numbers or ltters mean
[01:11] <paradizelost> :D
[01:11] <skippper> i know
[01:11] <skippper> but
[01:11] <skippper> i dont feel like setting them everytime i enter something
[01:11] <delmar> paradizelost, so.. it would stand to reason that if the Esound server was using ALSA.. Cedega was using ALSA.. and TeapSpeak was pointing at the Esound.. everything would be happy....
[01:11] <paradizelost> skippper: sticky bit
[01:12] <paradizelost> delmar: i would expect so.
[01:12] <delmar> hence why I am trying to get TeapSpeak and Esound .. workin g:P
[01:12] <delmar> paradizelost, does Esd use ALSA?
[01:12] <ircbrowser99> !sshd
[01:12] <ubotu> it has been said that sshd is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto
[01:12] <paradizelost> delmar: from there i don't htink i can be of much help,
[01:12] <paradizelost> delmar: i think ESD is it's own sound daemon
[01:12] <paradizelost> thus the SD in ESD
[01:12] <Elazar> No matter what destination I pass to smbmount, I always get back that it can't resolve the mount point. Any suggestions?
[01:13] <delmar> paradizelost, a sound daemon talks to the sound hardware via OSS or ALSA.. which are not daemons.. they are hardware resources
[01:13] <paradizelost> Elazar: try mount.cifs //<IP_ADDRESS>/share /media/mountpoint
[01:13] <delmar> paradizelost, a sound daemon is nothing  but a software proxy of sorts.
[01:13] <delmar> anyway so my problem is lack of info regarding esound.
[01:13] <paradizelost> delmar: as i said, i'm not intricately familiar w/ what you are trying to do.
[01:14] <paradizelost> delmar: i ust use alsa, and have never used teamspeak w/ cedega on linux
[01:14] <paradizelost> Elazar: if it says mount.cifs not found, apt-get install smbfs
[01:14] <Briguy> paradizelost: His problem is that when he runs two applications that use sound, in this case a game and teamspeak, the game hogs all the sound resources.
[01:14] <Briguy> Delmar: It might be an issue with Cedega
[01:14] <delmar> paradizelost, ignoring all other crap.. i simply want to know the network port details for Esound. it's a sound server..
[01:15] <paradizelost> delmar: i don't use esound and am not familiar w/ it, so i won't be of much help
[01:15] <Briguy> Anyone know what TrueType font package supports Hebrew?
[01:15] <delmar> Briguy, ignoring cedega.  I wanna know what the details are for the esound server .. port and stuff.
[01:15] <delmar> paradizelost, well thanks anyway :P
[01:15] <paradizelost> delmar: np
[01:15] <Biodieseler> someone help....
[01:15] <Briguy> delmar: That I don't know :-(
[01:15] <Biodieseler> ...please help.....
[01:15] <paradizelost> Biodieseler: what do you nnee
[01:15] <paradizelost> Biodieseler: need
[01:15] <paradizelost> Biodieseler: don't ask to ask
[01:16] <Biodieseler> need to expand my synaptic available library
[01:16] <paradizelost> Biodieseler: just ask your ?
[01:16] <paradizelost> Biodieseler: ad more sources to /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:16] <Biodieseler> just got my laptop online with ubuntu
[01:16] <Biodieseler> how do i open that to add?
[01:17] <paradizelost> Biodieseler: if you edit /etc/apt/sources.list there are several other lists already in the file you simply need to comment out
[01:17] <paradizelost> BRB
[01:17] <zcat[1] > synaptic config, add more repositories.. tick universe and multiverse
[01:17] <Briguy> I like how ubuntu has all the truetype font packages that cover chinese, korean, japanese, hindi, and every other concievable form of sanskrit, has arabic, but doesn't include aramaic and hebrew :-(
[01:17] <paradizelost> waiting for my chinese to show up....
[01:17] <Briguy> lol
[01:17] <Biodieseler> thanks paradizelost and zcat... i'll be right back
[01:17] <paradizelost> me hungry
[01:17] <Briguy> im getting chinese right now as well
[01:18] <paradizelost> have't eaten yet today and it's 6:20pm
[01:18] <paradizelost> :D
[01:18] <paradizelost> :(
[01:18] <serp> =(
[01:18] <AlmtyBob> yesterday I went until 9:30pm before I ate 8/
[01:18] <AlmtyBob> stupid mythtv
[01:18] <serp> no food = sad tummy
[01:18] <paradizelost> no food=less weight, i'm trying to lose about 50lbs
[01:18] <serp> not eating is not the answer
[01:18] <serp> it's just plain unhealthy
[01:19] <soundray> serp: there's no other answer, though.
[01:19] <paradizelost> mailny i just forgot to eat at lunch today
[01:19] <serp> eat moderate amounts of healthy food and excercise
[01:19] <paradizelost> was working on getting bartpe to pxe boot w/ hpa-tftp
[01:19] <Sionide> heh
[01:20] <Sionide> especially if you're about to have chinese
[01:20] <Sionide> that'll cancel out the last week of any diet you're doing..
[01:20] <gnomefreak> !offtopic
[01:20] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[01:20] <paradizelost> gnomefreak: are you trying to say that food is offtopic?
[01:20] <paradizelost> gnomefreak: we need to eat to keep our minds sharp to help support people
[01:20] <paradizelost> ....
[01:20] <gnomefreak> paradizelost: yes
[01:21] <gnomefreak> take it to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[01:21] <paradizelost> gnomefreak: didn't se any ?'s coming in at the moment....
[01:21] <fredrich> i badly need help with my prism2 card http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13668
[01:21] <Sionide> fredrich, perfect timing
[01:21] <zcat[1] > apt-get install healthy-food
[01:21] <menkent> anything naughty about using ext3 for the boot partition?
[01:21] <serp> where can I get support with the code::blocks IDE?
[01:21] <paradizelost> menkent: i usually use reiser for everything
[01:21] <gnomefreak> paradizelost: it doesnt mean take about anything (btw ive seena few questions being asked)
[01:22] <paradizelost> menkent: seems to be more reliable and a little faster
[01:22] <fredrich> Sionide, oh?um..
[01:22] <paradizelost> gnomefreak: i was just giving you a hard time about being a hard ass...
[01:22] <capiCrimm> is there any way to get a pinup button in the windows like in blackbox, kde, etc.
[01:22] <LinuxJones> serp: what language ?
[01:22] <soundray> menkent: ext3 is just fine for the boot partition.
[01:22] <serp> LinuxJones: c++
[01:22] <capiCrimm> or rollup
[01:22] <menkent> coo, thx. :)
[01:22] <capiCrimm> serp, for wxwidgets?
[01:23] <serp> I wanna know how to use the debugger
[01:23] <serp> it just doesnt work
[01:23] <eXistenZ> Did anyone succeed to get his 5.1 surround to work?
[01:23] <LinuxJones> serp: using gtk or pygtk ?
[01:23] <zcat[1] > ext2 or ext3 or reiserfs are all good sensible Linux filesystems you can use for / or /boot or /home.. fat32 or ntfs or hfs are not.
[01:23] <serp> LinuxJones: ?
[01:23] <serp> I don't know
[01:24] <LinuxJones> serp: jsut plain old c++
[01:24] <zcat[1] > I tend to prefer reiser.
[01:24] <Tanooki> When I try to run the Adept package manager, I am prompted for the root password, but it always says the password is incorrect.
[01:24] <Tanooki> Can anyone help?
[01:24] <spikeb> i am going to learn python and pygtk :)
[01:25] <paradizelost> Tanooki: use your current user password
[01:25] <LinuxJones> serp: try joining #gcc
[01:25] <paradizelost> Tanooki: unless you've changed the root password manually
[01:25] <capiCrimm> is there anyway I can redirect output to a file(like >), but still interact with it in the terminal?
[01:25] <serp> ok thanks LinuxJones
[01:25] <bbrazil> capiCrimm: tee
[01:25] <LinuxJones> spikeb: good man :)
[01:26] <soundray> capiCrimm: man tee
[01:26] <zcat[1] > capiCrimm: | tee file
[01:26] <Tanooki> Paradize:  It won't accept my user password either.
[01:26] <spikeb> LinuxJones: i have a couple of itches to scratch, one being an electronic checkbook register, and the other being a RTS game :)
[01:26] <paradizelost> Tanooki: are you a member of the %admin group?
[01:26] <paradizelost> Tanooki: you should use tab to complete names as well
[01:27] <paradizelost> Tanooki: fyi, that way i can get the highlighting sayig you've messaged me
[01:27] <fredrich> i cant understand how my card was working a-ok in breezy, then all of a sudden in dapper, it becomes a problem....sure dapper is a dev release currently...but still to get a prism2 intersil driver running shouldnt be this much work..
[01:27] <LinuxJones> spikeb: you'll want to check out #python, #pygtk and #gnome-hackers :)
[01:27] <Tanooki> How do I check what groups I'm a member of?
[01:28] <paradizelost> edit /etc/groups
[01:28] <RandolphCarter> Tanooki: id
[01:28] <spikeb> LinuxJones: aye
[01:28] <soundray> Tanooki: enter 'groups'
[01:28] <Xenguy> Tanooki: id
[01:28] <capiCrimm> spikeb, if you want something a bit more portable you might want to look at wxwidgets and wxpython(wxperl, wxruby, etc)
[01:28] <paradizelost> or log in as root and type vigr
[01:28] <LinuxJones> spikeb: I'm waiting for my new Python book to arrive in the mail
[01:28] <paradizelost> on a terminal
[01:28] <Elazar> Why would I get something like this... "cp: cannot create regular file ... Permission denied" ... when I try to copy a file to a directory on a Samba share and the permissions on it are wide open?
[01:28] <spikeb> LinuxJones: what did you get?
[01:28] <RandolphCarter> LinuxJones: ooh, what d'ya get?
[01:28] <paradizelost> Elazar: the permissions on the machine connecting to it
[01:29] <soundray> paradizelost: please don't advise people to log in as root.
[01:29] <Tanooki> paradize: /etc/groups doesn't exist.
[01:29] <soundray> Tanooki: have you created extra users on your system after installation?
[01:29] <LinuxJones> spikeb: python programming: from novice to professional, it's got the highest praises of any Python books that I have seen
[01:29] <paradizelost> soundray: sorry, figured people may know enough to run 1 command as root w/o breaking it
[01:29] <Xenguy> Tanooki: /etc/group
[01:29] <RandolphCarter> it would be safer to change your sudo config file to be slightly insecure (and let you run the program you want) than make the user root?
[01:30] <spikeb> LinuxJones: cool
[01:30] <soundray> paradizelost: someone who doesn't know what groups (s)he is in?
[01:30] <paradizelost> soundray: could be just unfamiliar w/ ubuntu, say a gentoo user where the equivalent was %wheel
[01:30] <gareth> im having a huge problum with 5.10... it wont connect to the internet though my WiFI OR direct network
[01:30] <LinuxJones> spikeb: I have been playing around with wxPython and am gonna take a crack at that first before moving on to pyGTK
[01:31] <spikeb> LinuxJones: neat :)
[01:31] <Toran> What can I use to mass-convert APE lossless audio files to FLAC lossless audio files, preserving meta data? (tags and the like)
[01:31] <Tanooki> Paradize: There's no 'admin' group.  There is an 'adm', is that the same thing?
[01:32] <soundray> paradizelost: best to err on the side of assuming the least amount of experience. Creates less work in the long run.
[01:32] <paradizelost> Tanooki: are you using dapper or breezy?
[01:32] <Tanooki> Dapper
[01:32] <paradizelost> Tanooki: i haven't used dapper, so i'd field it to someone else
[01:32] <soundray> Tanooki: have you created extra user accounts on your system after installation?
[01:32] <paradizelost> soundray: people won't learn if they don't f* it up once in a while
[01:33] <Tanooki> Yes, there's one regular user account that I'm using now.
[01:33] <soundray> paradizelost: they do that spontaneously to a sufficient extent. You don't have to guide them towards it ;)
[01:33] <paradizelost> soundray: but it's fun to have them sudo userdel root
[01:34] <mustard5> soundray, hehehe
[01:34] <soundray> Tanooki: log in as the very first user that you created. That one will have privileges to run administration commands.
[01:34] <Jave27> how would I go about getting my workspace switcher icons back on the panel?  I lost them after a weird X crash a while back...?
[01:34] <robinsw> !tgz
[01:34] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, robinsw
[01:35] <mustard5> Jave27, right click 'add panel' ?
[01:35] <capiCrimm> hrm, tee doesn't seem to do what I need. I want to see the output as well(I'm trying to record a telnet session)
[01:35] <soundray> robinsw, ask us.
[01:35] <skippper> i need help, i cant edit my MBR
[01:35] <Jave27> mustard5: thanks, you're a genius.  :)
[01:35] <robinsw> Guys, just downloaded RealBASIC... the filename is REALbasicLinux.tgz. How can I install this?
[01:35] <mustard5> Jave27, np :)
[01:35] <soundray> capiCrimm: run it in screen (man screen)
[01:36] <paradizelost> capiCrimm: screen is awesome
[01:36] <gareth> anyway, im (when booted into it) running breezy, my wifi card is:Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
[01:36] <mustard5> skippper, what do you want to do to your MBR?
[01:36] <paradizelost> mustard5: he deleted his windows partition where his bootloader was stored
[01:36] <gnomefreak> !screen
[01:36] <ubotu> well, screen is a terminal multiplexer http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen AND http://www.macworld.com/weblogs/macgems/
[01:36] <hierophant> is there an op online that i can talk to
[01:36] <gnomefreak> lots of good info on screen there
[01:36] <hierophant> please query me
[01:37] <skippper> mustard5, i saw a tut on how to install grub onto my drive, but im afraid i'll mess everythig up
[01:38] <Tanooki> soundray:  I can't run any administrative apps now.  I don't know what changed, but now I get a dialog that says 'su returned an error'.
[01:38] <paradizelost> Tanooki: did you use automatix by chance?
[01:38] <penguin> gareth: i have the same wifi card, what is the problem you are having
[01:38] <paradizelost> Tanooki: because that will fubar gksudo
[01:38] <mustard5> skippper, so what is working for you atm?
[01:39] <robinsw> Argh, fucky Linux. Just crashed.
[01:39] <skippper> mustard5, i had to re-install linux on my other drive to get grub up
[01:39] <PrimoTurbo> Is anyone using firefox able to access this page http://-kol.deviantart.com/
[01:39] <jack> violates some rfc i think
[01:39] <spikeb> not i PrimoTurbo
[01:39] <gareth> it sees all the cells it just wont assiciate with them, and i know my spelling stinks
[01:39] <capiCrimm> I don't get how http://www.macworld.com/weblogs/macgems/ relates to GNU screen?
[01:40] <paradizelost> PrimoTurbo: it works for me in windows
[01:40] <mustard5> skippper, so where did that linux install grub too?
[01:40] <PrimoTurbo> yeah works for me on windows also
[01:40] <mustard5> skippper, did it put it on the first drive or the second?
[01:40] <PrimoTurbo> but not on linux :(
[01:40] <ryancr> I am trying to rebuild thunderbird with gnome-vfs support (for adding attachments etc) i have edited the rules file and added --enable-gnomevfs and --enable-extensions=gnomevfs but it sill does not show the gnome-vfs mounted shares in the file chooser dialog
[01:40] <skippper> mustard5, on my old windows drive
[01:40] <penguin> gareth : do you have wpa enabled
[01:40] <ryancr> any thoughts/
[01:40] <ryancr> ?
[01:40] <calamari> robinsw: double click the file, it should open in the archive manager
[01:40] <jack> windows has no clue about proper rfc interpretation, linux does
[01:40] <capiCrimm> so screen is just like VNC for the terminal?
[01:40] <gareth> yes i do
[01:40] <jack> PrimoTurbo: go fix your dns entry
[01:40] <mustard5> skippper, k..so what is your goal now?
[01:41] <penguin> that seems to be the problem
[01:41] <penguin> i had the same issue
[01:41] <gareth> it also wont connect to an open one either
[01:41] <soundray> Tanooki: do not run su. You should run sudo or gksudo.
[01:41] <penguin> there are a few tutorials about getting wpa configured properly
[01:41] <skippper> mustard5, and i deleted that so i had to re install grub on it. My goal now is to install grub on my current drive (which is ubuntu)
[01:41] <penguin> one sec i'll toss you a link
[01:41] <paradizelost> PrimoTurbo: try doing an nslookup on it
[01:41] <paradizelost> linux doesn't like when things start with a -
[01:42] <penguin> gareth: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Network_Manager_with_WPA
[01:42] <penguin> this is for dapper only though
[01:42] <mustard5> skippper, ok..well if you like to be really cautious you could learn how to save a copy of your MBR before you start mucking around with it..I can show you a link
[01:42] <paradizelost> skippper: you'll need to change the 2 drives around as well, if your gonna boot from the 2nd hard drvie
[01:42] <soundray> Tanooki: are you on KDE?
[01:42] <Cars_Suck> how do you open a RAR file?
[01:42] <soundray> Cars_Suck: unrar x file.rar
[01:42] <gareth> i know how to configuer them, besides ihave no control over the router
[01:43] <skippper> mustard5, this is what i want set up, my current drive (ubuntu) with grub on it andmy other drive (nothing on it , used as more space)
[01:43] <Tanooki> Soundday, yes, on KDE, I have not used Automatix.
[01:43] <paradizelost> skippper: might be easier to reinstall ubuntu- maybe....
[01:43] <paradizelost> *don't shoot me...
[01:43] <gareth> i alread did all that
[01:43] <skippper> :/
[01:43] <Tanooki> What's wrong with su?
[01:43] <skippper> darn
[01:43] <DarkLegacy> Did anybody get my last messages?
[01:44] <paradizelost> DarkLegacy: what last messages?
[01:44] <penguin> gareth, all i can say is go to system, admin, networking and double check your settings
[01:44] <soundray> Tanooki: it requires root to be configured with a password, which is not the case by default in Ubuntu/kubuntu
[01:44] <DarkLegacy> DarkLegacy	I have a laptop that uses a PCMCIA network card, but it can't connect to the internet
[01:44] <DarkLegacy> 	DarkLegacy	I've installed the proper drivers, and have the ethernet configured correctly but it cannot connect to the internet
[01:44] <penguin> i have that same wifi card and am able to connect
[01:44] <soundray> !su
[01:44] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, soundray
[01:44] <skippper> mustard5, well if i use my other drive as extra space will it show up in "Computer"
[01:44] <mustard5> skippper, I think you could do that
[01:44] <soundray> !root
[01:44] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[01:44] <gareth> 5 times, still wont work
[01:44] <penguin> you made sure to set your default gateway
[01:44] <penguin> ?
[01:45] <gareth> yes
[01:45] <Cars_Suck> soundray, it said command not found
[01:45] <mustard5> skippper, you would need to mount it in /etc/fstab to use it, but thats pretty trivial.
[01:45] <skippper> alrighty
[01:45] <skippper> thanks
[01:45] <penguin> and you cant connect using the ethernet port either?
[01:45] <dhawk3122> does anyone know the minimum reqs for xbuntu? any suggestions on whether to insall xbuntu or ubuntu on a circa 1996 P2 laptop?
[01:45] <paradizelost> soundray: they tell you that, but it's just a conspiracy to turn ubuntu into windows!!!
[01:45] <soundray> Cars_Suck: you need to install the unrar package from multiverse
[01:45] <Tanooki> soundray, root has a password.  I was prompted for one during setup, and after I had the first 'incorrect password' message, I changed it on a console login just to be sure.
[01:46] <mustard5> skippper, why don't you download the super grub disk CD?  It will give you a way of booting up if you muck things up :)
[01:46] <Cars_Suck> soundray, use apt?
[01:46] <paradizelost> dhawk3122: i'd recommend replacing the laptop, but i would think w/ sufficient memory it would work fine
[01:46] <penguin> dhawk3122: xubuntu is meant to be not as resource intensive
[01:46] <soundray> Cars_Suck: yes
[01:46] <paradizelost> Tanooki: are you logged in as the first created user?
[01:46] <soundray> !info unrar
[01:46] <gareth> XUBUNTU! it takes A LOT less system resources
[01:46] <mustard5> skippper, there are lots of options you can do to give you a backup method of booting so you feel confident enough to experiment with gurb
[01:46] <soundray> !info unrar-nonfree
[01:46] <paradizelost> Tanooki: as in created during setup?
[01:46] <ubotu> unrar-nonfree: (Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version)), section multiverse/utils, is optional. Version: 3.4.3-1build1 (breezy), Packaged size: 83 kB, Installed size: 216 kB
[01:47] <Tanooki> Paradize, yes.
[01:47] <skippper> mustard5, i'll just install ubuntu
[01:47] <mustard5> skippper, well that will definitely fix it :)
[01:47] <gareth> penguin, pm
[01:47] <skippper> lol
[01:47] <mustard5> skippper, bit of overkill, but probably less research involved
[01:47] <Cars_Suck> soundray, i should get the nonfree?
[01:47] <skippper> mustard5, thanks
[01:47] <paradizelost> Tanooki: if you open a terminal and type in sudo synaptic does it work?
[01:47] <mustard5> skippper, good luck
[01:48] <dhawk3122> ok thanks...and i agree the laptop should be placed but its not for me
[01:48] <paradizelost> dhawk3122: you could just use DSL
[01:48] <Tanooki> Paradize, no.  I get 'incorrect password.'
[01:48] <paradizelost> :D
[01:48] <paradizelost> try the password for your current user
[01:48] <paradizelost> NOT the root password
[01:48] <dhawk3122> paradize would use DSL or Pup but the person im doing this for doesnt know anything about computers
[01:49] <paradizelost> dhawk3122: i figured as much...
[01:49] <pvd2006> does cp --sparse really help with speed?>
[01:49] <pvd2006> a little bit that is
[01:49] <gareth> i really am lost here
[01:50] <Cerveza> if I want to mount off a remote machine the command is: sudo mount -t ext <IP_ADDRESS> then some character then the file
[01:50] <Cerveza> what is the file?
[01:50] <Tanooki> paradize, It didn't appear to do anything wit the user password.  It just gave me another command prompt.
[01:50] <penguin-1> k one sec  gareth
[01:50] <Nihil85> hi! how to set the layer for a keyboard using the bash?
[01:51] <soundray> Tanooki: as root, enter 'adduser greg admin', then run konsole and enter 'sudo adept'. Enter user greg's password at the prompt.
[01:51] <paradizelost> Tanooki: try sudo xterm
[01:51] <mustard5> hmm..so this is what fluxbox looks like
[01:51] <mustard5> very minimalistic :)
[01:51] <dave> later
[01:51] <soundray> Tanooki: (assuming that your username is greg, which I guessed from your IRC credentials)
[01:52] <Tanooki> paradize, the group 'admin' does not exist.
[01:52] <paradizelost> mustard5: you could load blackbox on windows...
[01:52] <DarkLegacy> Hey guys, why doesn't Firefox work with my PCMCIA card on my laptop?
[01:52] <paradizelost> DarkLegacy: wouldn't be a firefox issue, would be lower level....
[01:52] <soundray> Tanooki: how do you determine that the group admin does not exist?
[01:52] <DarkLegacy> Well, what's the problem paradizelost?
[01:52] <penguin-1> gareth: pm?
[01:52] <mustard5> paradizelost, heh..more for me to experiment with! I'll look into that one day :)
[01:52] <paradizelost> DarkLegacy: does anything over the network work on the card?
[01:53] <redguy> Cerveza: hmm? what you want to mount over? NFS? smb? CIFS?  not sure what -t ext is
[01:53] <ompaul> arrick1, may I message you ?
[01:53] <Tanooki> soundray, logged in as root, 'adduser greg admin' returns 'The group 'admin' does not exist.'
[01:53] <Cerveza> -t is an option for mount to specify the type
[01:53] <DarkLegacy> No, paradize
[01:53] <Cerveza> and it should be -t ext3
[01:53] <Cerveza> and the answer is nfs
[01:53] <imc1> Hi, with NetworkManager. Problem: on other installs, NM requres each user to store all the AP passwords in a default.keyring but not this time. It's asking me for the ap password each time.
[01:53] <redguy> Cerveza: so you should mount with -t nfs
[01:53] <redguy> Cerveza: not -t ext3
[01:54] <Cerveza> yeah
[01:54] <Cerveza> but I still need an answer to my question
[01:54] <Cerveza> its ip then what
[01:54] <Cerveza> ?
[01:54] <paradizelost> brb
[01:54] <arrick1> yeah
[01:54] <redguy> Cerveza: options
[01:55] <gareth> penguin, can you see me in the pm??????
[01:55] <redguy> Cerveza: man nfs
[01:55] <toodles> Cerveza, then the folder were you want that filesystem to be mounted
[01:55] <Nightfox> hi
[01:55] <Cerveza> toodles, no special character?
[01:55] <penguin-1> gareth: no, have you registered?
[01:56] <paradizelost> hey, i think i like using gaim for irc, no funky coloring....
[01:56] <redguy> Cerveza: mount -t nfs the.server:/the/nfs/export/path /mount point
[01:56] <khanman02> how do i shut down a process when it freezes my x-windows from cli like i can CTRL+ALT+F1 into a termainal, but don't know the command to shutdown the program...
[01:56] <Cerveza> :
[01:56] <Cerveza> thank you
[01:56] <whiter> hello, i have a printer shared on an XP machine, (the machine the printer is hooked to is xp), and i was wondering how i could use ubuntu to print with that printer
[01:56] <gareth> registerd, what?
[01:56] <Cerveza> thats all I needed
[01:56] <whiter> kind of like printer sharing
[01:56] <Briguy> how can one change languages on the fly?
[01:56] <Cerveza> ah, it worked
[01:56] <Cerveza> great
[01:56] <Cerveza> thanks
[01:56] <penguin-1> gareth: you need to register your nick in order to pm
[01:56] <paradizelost> khanman02: do a ps -eaf, find the pid in the list, and kill -9 pid
[01:56] <gareth> how?
[01:56] <redguy> Cerveza: i was wrong when saying that the options are after the server
[01:56] <Jave27> Hello again..  Is there a way to bind a keyboard shortcut to switching between multiple screens? I have a :0.0 & :0.1 display, and Alt-Tab doesn't switch between apps in different displays...?
[01:56] <penguin-1> gareth: /msg nickserv identify passwordyouwant
[01:56] <Cerveza> its ok
[01:56] <redguy> Cerveza: refer to man nfs
[01:56] <Cerveza> I've got it now
[01:56] <soundray> Tanooki: I don't know how you got into this situation, but you definitely have a very unusual installation.
[01:56] <soundray> Tanooki: is reinstalling an option?
[01:56] <penguin-1> err
[01:57] <penguin-1> gareth : sorry its /msg nickserv register
[01:57] <paradizelost> Tanooki: sounds like that may be or best option...
[01:57] <penguin-1> then your password you want
[01:57] <Inazad> Anyone can help me with ftp-ssl ?
[01:57] <penguin-1> then try to pm
[01:57] <khanman02> paradizelost: thankz
[01:57] <Cerveza> hey, whats the package name for opengl?
[01:57] <Briguy> how can one change languages on the fly?
[01:57] <Tanooki> soundray, Yeah, I could do it again.  That's kind of annoying, but it's only 45 minutes.
[01:58] <toodles> Cerveza, depends on what you want
[01:58] <paradizelost> Cerveza: you should just need to uncomment a line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:58] <gareth> j
[01:58] <gareth> ok, how do i change my name?
[01:58] <Jave27> Cerveza: you may need the binary video drivers for your card, too.
[01:58] <[D] ARKFENIX> hello , i need help with amarok 1.4 because it don't shows me the lyrics of any song , the names are right , so i dont know why , I've ubntu
[01:58] <soundray> Tanooki: there is one thing you could probably try before you do that:
[01:58] <paradizelost> Cerveza: load "glx" IIRC
[01:58] <Cerveza> I just want opengl
[01:59] <Cerveza> and I want to apt-get it
[01:59] <paradizelost> Cerveza: and possibly GLcore
[01:59] <Tanooki> ok...
[01:59] <soundray> Tanooki: run as root "dpkg-reconfigure passwd'
[01:59] <toodles> Cerveza, it depends on your graphics card
[01:59] <paradizelost> Cerveza: it's a setting in your X server, it's built in...
[01:59] <LinuxJones> whiter: >> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-10659.html
[01:59] <toodles> Cerveza, what card have you got?
[01:59] <soundray> Tanooki: then try the adduser command once more.
[01:59] <paradizelost> Cerveza: you may need to load the proper drivers for your card, but opengl is built into X
[01:59] <Cerveza> I need the libraries
[02:00] <gareth> I HATE IRC
[02:00] <toodles> Cerveza, they're different for different cards... at least the binary ones
[02:00] <Cerveza> my card is installed properly
[02:00] <Cerveza> I'm just trying to write programs in opengl
[02:00] <Cerveza> and gcc can't find the libraries
[02:00] <toodles> Cerveza, what make/model is the card
[02:00] <penguin-1> well if irc isnt your thinkg
[02:00] <hierophant> gareth if you hate it why are you on it
[02:00] <penguin-1> thing*
[02:00] <penguin-1> you have aim?
[02:00] <Tanooki> soundray:  Again, 'The group 'admin' does not exist.'
[02:00] <Cerveza> let me check
[02:01] <gareth> because i need help, thatws why
[02:01] <gareth> how do i change my name in this stupid room!?!?!
[02:01] <redguy> Cerveza: libgl1-mesa-dev perhaps?
[02:01] <redguy> gareth: don't shout
[02:02] <paradizelost> gareth: /nick username
[02:02] <redguy> gareth: /nick newnick
[02:02] <penguin-1> gareth: type /nick then nick you want
[02:02] <gareth> i wasnt
[02:02] <paradizelost> gareth: all the !!!'s says shouting
[02:02] <silverpower> I have to restart networking services to reacquire the DHCP lease quite a bit (still sorting my Linksys after a reset and firmware reload), but I haven't found a better way to get it to behave short of rebooting. How does Ubuntu do it?
[02:02] <paradizelost> silverpower: dhclient3 eth#
[02:02] <soundray> Tanooki: sorry, my line keeps going down
[02:02] <toodles> Cerveza, what redguy said should work, nevermind the make/model
[02:02] <paradizelost> silverpower: sudo dhclient3 eth#
[02:03] <Cerveza> yeah
[02:03] <Cerveza> it did
[02:03] <penguin-1> gareth: now type /msg nickserv register passwordyouwant
[02:03] <redguy> silverpower: ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0
[02:03] <Cerveza> thanks Red-Sox
[02:03] <penguin-1> and you can pm
[02:03] <Red-Sox> Cerveza: What did I do?
[02:03] <Tanooki> soundray: I got the same response, 'admin' doesn't exist.
[02:03] <Red-Sox> Cerveza: Oh, you ment redguy I s'pose :)
[02:03] <redguy> silverpower: assuming eth0 is the interface you want to refresh
[02:03] <paradizelost> redguy: that may not always renew the lease
[02:03] <Cerveza> sorry
[02:03] <Cerveza> redguy,
[02:03] <Cerveza> mybad
[02:03] <ompaul> !enter
[02:03] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[02:03] <ompaul> Cerveza, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ that line above this one
[02:03] <ircbrowser99> back again. anyone happen to know offhand howto invoke the vnc server from an ssh session (remotely) ?
[02:04] <redguy> paradizelost: huh? in what circumstances it won't?
[02:04] <soundray> Tanooki: I think I would reinstall if I were you.
[02:04] <Cerveza> my bad ompaul
[02:04] <Tanooki> I'm going to reinstall.
[02:04] <Elazar> paradizelost: I'm checking the permissions from Ubuntu... they're wide open.
[02:04] <paradizelost> redguy: it would usually keep the address it already had IIRC
[02:04] <Cerveza> wasn't paying attention to what I was writing'
[02:04] <redguy> paradizelost: running dhclient is not without drawbacks as well, I suppose
[02:04] <silverpower> redguy: It is, though I wasn't aware that Ubuntu doesn't use the init system to take care of that.
[02:04] <soundray> ircbrowser99: just enter vncserver
[02:04] <redguy> paradizelost: it's not how it works
[02:04] <ompaul> Tanooki, come back with the new install - then you can get all the useful help we can give :)
[02:05] <redguy> silverpower: you might as well /etc/init.d/networking restart
[02:05] <soundray> ircbrowser99: or x11vnc to attach a running X session
[02:05] <ircbrowser99> soundray: the host is remote and sitting at the ubuntu login screen. i'm logged in remotely via ssh
[02:05] <redguy> silverpower: but ifdown and ifup are more selective
[02:05] <soundray> ircbrowser99: so?
[02:05] <paradizelost> ircbrowser99: you want x11vnc
[02:05] <ircbrowser99> soundray: ohhhh, trying...
[02:06] <Sky0231> Does anyone here have experience setting up a dual monitor Xorg.conf?
[02:06] <silverpower> redguy: Hmm, that didn't work for me last time I attempted it...
[02:06] <pablo_> hi!i did sudo cp -ravfp /home/draco/. /home/draco2/ | chown -Rv draco2 /home/draco2/
[02:06] <paradizelost> ircbrowser99: if you add the following to your /etc/gdm/Init/Default file, it will start x11vnc on gdm startup, and you can connect in from there.
[02:06] <ircbrowser99> soundray: vncserver: command not found. locate vncserver = no hits
[02:06] <paradizelost> ircbrowser99: x11vnc -scale 0.75 -rfbauth /home/dan/.vnc/passwd -bg -q -forever -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -gone 'xscreensaver-command -lock' -shared
[02:06] <pablo_> but it didnt copy all files
[02:06] <pablo_> any ideas?
[02:06] <paradizelost> ircbrowser99: apt-get install x11vnc
[02:07] <soundray> ircbrowser99: 'sudo apt-get install vncserver x11vnc'
[02:07] <ircbrowser99> paradizelost: ty. trying
[02:07] <paradizelost> ircbrowser99: you will need to restart gdm after adding that though
[02:07] <redguy> silverpower: how come? maybe running dhclient as paradizelost suggests might work better for you since networking restart basically does ifdown -a ; ifup -a
[02:07] <paradizelost> ircbrowser99: and of course make the appropriate changes to where the vnc passwd file is
[02:08] <Sky0231> I am trying to set up a dual monitor system, and I have set up the Xorg.conf file with both vid cards, monitors, and set up the screens, assigned them, and changed the server layout, but even after I reboot, the one monitor will not turn on. Any ideas?
[02:08] <ircbrowser99> paradizelost, soundray: putting on my learning curve hat, wish me luck. thanks
[02:08] <spikeb_> hmm banshee seems to suck less
[02:08] <silverpower> redguy: ...wait...dhclient?!
[02:08] <paradizelost> silverpower: dhclient3 from a terminal
[02:09] <paradizelost> silverpower: sudo dhclient3 eth#
[02:09] <redguy> # being 0,1 and so on
[02:09] <silverpower> paradizelost: I get the idea, but *dhclient*?!
[02:10] <Nihil85> hi! how to set the layer for a keyboard using the bash?
[02:10] <Nihil85> hi! how to set the layer for a keyboard using the bash?
[02:10] <paradizelost> dhcp client
[02:10] <silverpower> I assumed Ubuntu used dhcpcd like every other distro I've used.
[02:10] <paradizelost> silverpower: i used to use gentoo, it threw me for a loop fora while too
[02:11] <silverpower> paradizelost: *I* use Gentoo exclusively. My *sister* uses Ubuntu.
[02:12] <imc1> anyone on this networkmanager problem?
[02:12] <Inazad> Anyone can help me with sftp ?
[02:12] <silverpower> She likes it, and she's decent at maintaining it, but when I have to step in, I constantly trip over the differences.
[02:12] <redguy> !ask
[02:12] <ubotu> Just ask. Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise and on-topic. Information like hardware make, model and output of commands that you used pasted onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org is important.
[02:12] <toodles> Inazad, whats the problem?
[02:13] <Inazad> toodles, wait me a minute..
[02:14] <silverpower> paradizelost, redguy, thanks, though. You two've been quite helpful.
[02:15] <Nihil85> hi! how to set the layer for a keyboard using the bash?
[02:15] <soundray> Nihil85: if you don't get an answer, something might be wrong with your question.
[02:16] <Nihil85> soundray: how i can change the layout of my keyboard, if dpkgreconfigure-xerverxorg doesn't work? I need a command to be used in the bas(bash, terminal however it's named)
[02:17] <Nihil85> soundray: now is the question right?
[02:17] <bimberi> Nihil85: System -> Preferences -> Keyboard
[02:17] <silverpower> Nihil85: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg only reconfigures the X server. It won't take care of the console.
[02:17] <requiem_> Hi !!
[02:17] <Nihil85> bimberi: i've done this, but it doesn't work
[02:17] <requiem_> any Mexican Girld??
[02:17] <Nihil85> silverpower: so what's the command line to change the keyboard layout?
[02:17] <soundray> Nihil85, add the Keyboard Indicator applet to the panel and configure it. You will then be able to switch between different international layouts
[02:18] <bimberi> Nihil85: yep, sorry you did ask for a command
[02:18] <Nihil85> bimberi: don't worry
[02:18] <requiem_> how enable the root password in ubuntu friends?
[02:18] <bimberi> ubotu tell requiem_ about root
[02:18] <paradizelost> requiem_: i could tell you but then i'd have to kill you
[02:18] <silverpower> Nihil85: Dunno. I vaguely recall how to do it on Gentoo, but not Ubuntu.
[02:18] <paradizelost> !root
[02:18] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[02:18] <toodles> NigelS_, Make sure have you updated you system. I know there was bugs before, depending on what version of ubuntu you are using.
[02:19] <zcat[1] > requiem_: it's easy. First log in as root!
[02:19] <paddygman> hey all
[02:19] <zcat[1] > then set a password .
[02:19] <requiem_> yes
[02:19] <paddygman> anyone free for a question regarding network adapters

[02:20] <requiem_> it all ?? zcat?
[02:20] <paradizelost> paddygman: don't ask to ask, just ask the ?.
[02:20] <paradizelost> paddygman: if someone is free, they will answer
[02:20] <Nihil85> silverpower: thanks

[02:20] <paddygman> i have 2 network adapters both of which are connected one to a router the other to a cable modem i want to set the one connected to the cable modem as default but it always switches back
[02:20] <Nihil85> bimberi: can i bother you in pvt? i will show you the error i get
[02:21] <zcat[1] > seriously; it can be done but until you know enough to figure it out for yourself you probably shouldn't be logging in as root.
[02:21] <soundray> paddygman: swap the cables
[02:21] <paradizelost> paddygman: have you tried firestarter?
[02:21] <paddygman> tried that
[02:21] <paradizelost> paddygman: or try soundray's solution...
[02:21] <paradizelost> :d
[02:21] <capiCrimm> sorry for my ignorance, but I'm still not finding how I can write a telnet session to a file using screen?
[02:21] <requiem_> ok , i'm try
[02:21] <bimberi> Nihil85: sure, no guarantee that i'll know anything though
[02:21] <paddygman> isnt firestarted a firewall
[02:21] <silverpower> paddygman: What sort of router?
[02:21] <requiem_> thank's Zcat
[02:21] <paddygman> linksys
[02:21] <paddygman> its not the config i can access both
[02:21] <zcat[1] > capiCrimm: telnet somehost.tla | tee telnet.log
[02:21] <silverpower> You don't chain a Linksys like that.
[02:22] <zcat[1] > that should work.
[02:22] <arrick1> paddygman, gonna be hard cause ubuntu collides dual nicks, and will run only one "normally"
[02:22] <paddygman> i'd just prefer to get net through cable
[02:22] <paddygman> any ideas
[02:22] <silverpower> Cable modem -> Linksys -> your box.
[02:22] <paradizelost> paddygman: why are you trying to have a box behind a linux router AND connected to something else? usuall dual-nic is for load balancing or using it as a router
[02:22] <requiem_> it's complicate configure a usb internet conection whit a router 2wire model 1000?
[02:22] <paddygman> it always defaults to the linksys
[02:22] <capiCrimm> zcat[1] , but then I can see the telnet response. :\
[02:23] <requiem_> sorry 1'm rookie
[02:23] <paradizelost> paddygman: is it getting a dhcp address from the linksys?
[02:23] <paradizelost> that would be why
[02:23] <paddygman> got modem to linux box and 2nd modem to router to linux box
[02:23] <silverpower> dial-up modem?
[02:23] <paddygman> i can set the second card to either dhcp or static
[02:23] <zcat[1] > capiCrimm: just tried it now.. it's working for me.
[02:23] <requiem_> ok
[02:23] <capiCrimm> zcat[1] , nvm, seems I was forgetting the port. Do'h
[02:23] <paradizelost> paddygman: so your trying to have a redundant ISP?
[02:23] <paddygman> nahh are cable mdemsl
[02:23] <requiem_> let me see
[02:23] <paddygman> ??
[02:24] <paddygman> redundant cable modem
[02:24] <zcat[1] > ahhhh ok.
[02:24] <paddygman> i'm tryin to set up the machine as a server wi dns so i dont have to pay
[02:24] <paddygman> also runnin it as a game server off my second connection
[02:24] <paddygman> the first connection is for the windows users in the flat
[02:24] <paddygman> and that goes through tthe linksys connection which i share through
[02:25] <requiem_> thanks a lot friend
[02:25] <paddygman> any suggestions
[02:26] <silverpower> paddygman: Are you attempting to scam a singular ISP or are you attempting to use two ISPs with seperate modems and somehow integrate them?
[02:26] <paddygman> not scammin anyone
[02:26] <paddygman> i have 2 connections in the flat from the same isp
[02:27] <paddygman> 2 seperate modems with different ip's and accounts
[02:27] <TokenBad> has anyone ever used mdf2iso and actually got it to work?
[02:27] <silverpower> Oh, okay.
[02:27] <redguy> paddygman: so you want to change your default route, right?
[02:27] <paddygman> i just usin them to set up a server and use that to run my game server and share on the linksys network
[02:27] <paddygman> well through the admin gui i can set the default adapter
[02:27] <paddygman> but it keeps swappin back
[02:27] <paddygman> even if i change cables
[02:27] <Nihil85> hi all. Which was the command to set the keyboard layer with the terminal?
[02:28] <paradizelost> paddygman: good luck dual-homing  i've never been able to get that to work.
[02:28] <paradizelost> paddygman: even having hardwire/wireless both on on a laptop
[02:28] <paddygman> damn it
[02:28] <Ins|de> hello there, i need help configuriing my microphone, it works on skype but there's nothing else working! can anybody help? i'm using breezy
[02:28] <toodles> Nihil85, i cant really help you, but I think its called keyboard laybout, not layer
[02:28] <paradizelost> it will go through 1 and the only way to get it to use the other, that i've found, is to have the media disconnected.
[02:28] <silverpower> paddygman: You'll need to switch distros, or at the very least DHCP clients. dhclient does some seriously goofy things.
[02:29] <paddygman> at the mo am happy to settle for just one connection but prob is my isp is a dhcp connection so static is goin to cause havoc wi the modem
[02:30] <paradizelost> paddygman: most ISP's offer a static IP option...
[02:30] <paddygman> i usually run the modem connection dhcp and when needed i enable the other which hits default and make that a static ip to share on network
[02:30] <silverpower> paddygman: A Linksys is perfectly capable of handing out a Static IP keyed to a specific MAC and hostname. I use it all the time.
[02:30] <Nihil85> toodles: you're right. thanks
[02:30] <Nihil85> hi all. Which was the command to set the keyboard layout with the terminal?
[02:30] <paradizelost> paddygman: or you could go cablemodem> linux box> network, and just turn off routingon the linksys
[02:30] <paradizelost> and use it as a switch
[02:30] <silverpower> You won't need DHCP for the Linksys side then.
[02:31] <paddygman> hmm i could try to set up static ip to the modem
[02:31] <paddygman> neone kno how to get my default gateway from the ifconfig commanf
[02:31] <paddygman> command
[02:31] <TokenBad> take the lack of responce as no one has used it
[02:31] <paradizelost> paddygman: route
[02:31] <Ins|de> hello there, i need help configuriing my microphone, it works on skype but there's nothing else working! can anybody help? i'm using breezy
[02:31] <paddygman> kewl
[02:31] <silverpower> paddygman: I'd think you'd be better served asking a Linksys support channel.
[02:31] <paddygman> thanks
[02:31] <paddygman> nahh
[02:31] <paddygman> too much hassle
[02:32] <paddygman> linksys have an endless world of problems
[02:32] <silverpower> There's a couple channels dealing with custom firmwares, they'll know how to help you out.
[02:32] <paradizelost> paddygman: you could try DDWRT
[02:33] <redguy> paddygman: hmm also, you might want to disable dhcp for the interface connected to the router
[02:33] <paddygman> redguy its usually on a static neway
[02:33] <paddygman> i'l try route n see if i can get setup that way
[02:33] <paddygman> brb
[02:33] <paddygman> cheers btw
[02:34] <rab> hey how do i change my computers name?
[02:34] <redguy> paddygman: so if it isn't dhcp setting the default route what is?
[02:34] <toodles> NigelS_, do you need to change it perminantly, or just temperarily?
[02:34] <rab> perminatly
[02:34] <paddygman> redguy what??
[02:34] <ray_> how can I resize an NTFS partition from within linux non-destructively
[02:34] <paddygman> i use a static ip on the router to get on
[02:34] <paddygman> i use dhcp on modem
[02:35] <paradizelost> ray_:  god luck
[02:35] <paradizelost> good
[02:35] <paddygman> am goin to dc the router and try static on the modem
[02:35] <paddygman> if i get that goin should be ok
[02:35] <redguy> paddygman: set a static ip on the interface which is connected to the modem
[02:35] <rab> how do i change my computers name?
[02:35] <paddygman> thats wher i got stuck earlier about to retry
[02:35] <toodles> Nihil85_Away, do you need to change it perminantly, or just temperarily?
[02:35] <redguy> paddygman: so that it won't get the dhcp settings from the linksys router
[02:35] <paddygman> wasnt sure of my gateway so couldnt be sure
[02:35] <paddygman> dhcp is off on the router
[02:36] <paddygman> i have control on that
[02:36] <ray_> how can I resize an NTFS partition from within linux non-destructively
[02:36] <redguy> paddygman: also you might read into man dhclient.conf and set it not to accept the default gateway dhcp option on the interface connected to the router if
[02:36] <paradizelost> ray_:  try using partition magic
[02:36] <paradizelost> ray_: otherwise you may hose the partition
[02:37] <ray_> sigh...I didn't want to boot into windows
[02:37] <redguy> paddygman: can you paste your /etc/network/interfaces to pastebin then?
[02:37] <paddygman> redguy bit over my head and am a bit lazy at this hour to read but i'll give this a shot and may leave it ther for the night
[02:37] <paddygman> cheers for the tips tho
[02:37] <redguy> paddygman: np, good luck
[02:38] <virtk0s> is there an application for linux that lets you highlight (like physically highlighing, in yellow) a pdf?
[02:38] <paddygman> thanks
[02:38] <virtk0s> adobe pro does it on the windows side...
[02:39] <CarlK> <- on linux
[02:39] <CarlK> so I added the png, I don't see it
[02:40] <CarlK> hmm, not #qcad
[02:40] <harisund> I have a question. Using what libraries are programs like mc created?
[02:40] <harisund> I mean, is there something like a GTK+/wxWidgets/Qt for the console too?
[02:41] <nalioth> ray_: you may use an ubuntu LiveCd and use gparted for your ntfs resize
[02:41] <spikeb> harisund: yeah, stuff like ncurses
[02:41] <byen__> I need some direction guys!
[02:41] <byen__> please*

[02:52] <capiCrimm> hrm, nvm it seems to do that by default, how do you open a new window.
[02:52] <LuframMorder> que demonios
[02:52] <redguy> byen__: well, seems newer than mine :-)
[02:53] <byen__> :) lol..  redguy  the reason why I am asking is.. after the recent update pf the k7 kernel my pc is going beserk! the cp fan, memory management and the processor use
[02:54] <redguy> byen__: hmm, maybe I shouldn't upgrade then :-)
[02:55] <byen__> redguy, it could just be me. but its really ruuning heavy.. even on XFce
[02:56] <redguy> byen__: you sure that this is caused by the new kernel?
[02:56] <byen__> caused after updating it redguy
[02:56] <Tater> Hey all I use smb4k to manage my shares and all of a sudden after a reboot I can no longer connect to my windows shares the connection keeps getting refused
[02:56] <s|k> ba
[02:57] <digen> Tater, windows firewall?
[02:57] <PVZ> can spca5xx be installed on ubuntu?
[02:57] <redguy> byen__: this is odd. Don't know how to help you though. Got to go anyways
[02:57] <Tater> digen, its server2k and afaik nothing on it has changed, I can still connect to the shares using my desktop XP install
[02:57] <redguy> byen__: maybe you should submit a bug report?
[02:58] <redguy> byen__: or try asking in here again, maybe someone else will help you
[02:58] <redguy> byen__: bye
[02:58] <digen> Tater, what about accessing it using smbclient?
[02:58] <byen__> redguy, I just wanted to see if it was only me.. but seems like no one updates at all
[02:58] <tuxuser19> there is a problem with my printer on my ubuntu breezy pc. it is a hppsc1210 usb printer. the pc recognizes after i connect it to the usb port and the config goes smoothely >System>Admin>Printing way and when I add the printer I can see there is an option to add detected printers. But when I click "test page" nothing happens with the printer...what might be the reason
[02:58] <Lord_Maynoth> how do you install windows apps with wine???
[02:58] <Tater> digen, never tried I don't know how to mount files using that
[02:59] <paradizelost> tuxuser19: could be the type of driver your using
[02:59] <digen> Tater, it doesnt mount.its similar to using FTP on the client side.
[02:59] <paradizelost> Lord_Maynoth: the best way i use is to use crossoverofice
[02:59] <digen> Tater, smbclient -L "IP-of-Windows-PC" -N, without the quotes.
[02:59] <Lord_Maynoth> but crossover office isn't free
[03:00] <paradizelost> it has better compatitbility than straight wine.
[03:00] <paradizelost> and it's a project worth supporting
[03:00] <paradizelost> toherwise, wine file.exe
[03:00] <paradizelost> or set up your environment with winesetuptk
[03:01] <capiCrimm> anyone know a good way to download a safari book for local comsuption?
[03:01] <Tater> digen dosn't work
[03:01] <st3v3dnd> Does anyone know how I can make mplayer retain the original aspect ratio when enlarging the view window?
[03:02] <tuxuser19> paradizelost: but what I can see is the printer is listed in the ubtuntu s printer list i have tried the hppsc1210 option and the autodetect option it wont do anythin
[03:02] <harisund> capiCrimm: I would be interested in finding a way for that too. Even with a subscription it could become a pain really.
[03:02] <digen> Tater, what error if any?
[03:02] <Tater> anonymous login successful then it returns an error saying it can't grab the browse list and the connection fails
[03:02] <paradizelost> tuxuser19: are you using cups?
[03:02] <Tater> digen, can I pm you with a paste
[03:02] <digen> Tater, ok
[03:02] <capiCrimm> harisund, I'm building a script right now, but it's such a pain(at least in scheme... )
[03:03] <harisund> lol that capiCrimm. What are you using to build that script? I mean, what components are you calling?
[03:03] <tuxuser19> paradizelost, ya...but i have messed up my cups a bit in the pastfew weeks but finally i have reinstalled it by copying the config files from other pc
[03:03] <capiCrimm> harisund, url.ss(in mzscheme).
[03:04] <harisund> oooh . ok .. all the best !
[03:04] <jksd> hi, I've just set an extra partition with gparted, installed windows on it, and now when I set the linux partition as the active partition i just get 'Missing OS' at bootup, can anyone help?
[03:04] <capiCrimm> I already had to write a python script around it since using both https and http seemed to be too much trouble.
[03:04] <tuxuser19> paradizelost, how to check if the cups is properly installed & working ?
[03:04] <paradizelost> tuxuser19: not sure off had, /etc/init.d/cupsd restart possibly, are you using KDE or gnome?
[03:05] <bloekish> hi, i'm having some trouble installing unbuntu 5.10 to an external USB HD attached to my laptop (compaq n410c). I followed the instruction as per http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80811, but when i try to boot off the usb hd, grub returns 'error 21'. the laptop gives 'boot from usb hard drive' as an option so seems like it should be supported. any help much appreciated! :)
[03:05] <lwizardl> Hi
[03:05] <tuxuser19> pradizelost:  i have done the restarting etc.. & im using Gnome
[03:05] <jksd> do I need a live CD or something?
[03:05] <sarixe> anyone: is dapper close to ready for normal use yet, and if so, should I use alpha 7 or beta 2?
[03:05] <lutra> sarixe: alpha 7 is the latest release
[03:06] <paradizelost> bloekish: make sure you loaded grub onto the external not the internal drive.
[03:06] <lutra> sarixe: it's pretty stable...it will be released in 3 weeks or so
[03:06] <sarixe> lutra: nice... i'll just wait then
[03:06] <bloekish> paradizelost: yes grub is on /dev/sda
[03:06] <sarixe> lutra: thanks
[03:06] <lutra> sarixe: np
[03:06] <paradizelost> bloekish: make sure that your internal isn't a sata, i had that problem on my laptop
[03:07] <lwizardl> has there been a easy way to get sun java re1.4 installed yet?
[03:07] <jksd> hi, I've just set an extra partition with gparted, installed windows on it, and now when I set the linux partition back as the active partition i just get 'Missing OS' at bootup, can anyone help?
[03:07] <tuxuser19> paradizelost, when the pc asks for the "port no" how to find the proper USB port number like for example there will be USB-1,USB-2,USB-3 etc...how to know to which USB port number the port is connected
[03:07] <lutra> jksd: did you install windows first or second?
[03:08] <paradizelost> bloekish: also, make sure when you install grub to a boot sector, you did it to (HD1) if that's your USB drive
[03:08] <jksd> lutra: second
[03:08] <lutra> jksd: you should install windows first
[03:08] <paradizelost> tuxuser19: it would say that there was a device connected
[03:08] <lutra> jksd: you'll need to reinstall grub
[03:08] <jksd> lutra: ahh I see
[03:08] <jksd> lutra: how can I do that without logging into ubuntu?>
[03:09] <lutra> jksd: do you have a live cd?
[03:09] <jksd> lutra: live cd?
[03:09] <bloekish> paradizelost: grub is installed to /dev/sda
[03:09] <jksd> lutra: I'm downloading one right now
[03:09] <lutra> jksd: i think running grub-install or some similar command you can reinstall grub
[03:09] <paradizelost> bloekish: the /boot may be on /dev/sda, but you need to run grub setup to install into the MBR of the usb device
[03:09] <jksd> jksd: where do I run grub-install from? the live cd?
[03:10] <jksd> er
[03:10] <jksd> heh
[03:10] <jksd> lutra: where do I run grub-install from? the live cd?
[03:10] <jksd> talking to myself
[03:10] <lutra> jksd: do you know what device your linux partition is.../dev/hda1, /dev/hdc1 and so on
[03:10] <bloekish> paradizelost: yeah it's pata internally. i noticed that /boot/grub/devices.map listed hd0 as /dev/hda and hd1 as /dev/sda, walkthrough included changing menu.lst entries to root=(hd0,0) so i tried switching the device.map around but no joy there
[03:10] <lutra> jksd: yeah from a terminal in ubuntu
[03:10] <lutra> off the live cd
[03:10] <jksd> lutra: I think it's /dev/hda2
[03:10] <transgress_> does wpa not work with broadcom in linux?
[03:10] <bloekish> paradizelost: the whole install is to one big partition on the external drive
[03:10] <lutra> jksd: ok then 'grub-install /dev/hda2'
[03:10] <paradizelost> bloekish: did you do a setup (hd1)?
[03:10] <jksd> lutra: alright, thanks v. much for your help
[03:11] <lutra> jksd: omitting ' ' of course
[03:11] <jksd> lutra: k
[03:11] <paradizelost> bloekish: from in grub?
[03:11] <paradizelost> bloekish: because the ubuntu installer would install the bootloader to the MBR on the internal no matter what
[03:12] <Dingo> which editor do you guys recommend to create python files, besides gedit?
[03:12] <bloekish> paradizelost: no, when the ubuntu installer said it was about to install to MBR of /dev/sda i told it to do it on /dev/sda
[03:13] <bloekish> paradizelost: does grub-install work from the rescue mode from the install cd? could re-run it maybe
[03:13] <bloekish> paradizelost: i mean it wanted to do hda, told it to do sda instead
[03:14] <paradizelost> bloekish: should work.  you could also alt+f2 out of the installer
[03:15] <bloekish> paradizelost: ok i'll check what partitions the installer actually made. think it may be a simple case of foolish assumptions on my part, it's late here ;)
[03:15] <The^nike> hello

[03:20] <steveire> Hi.
[03:20] <cristiano> tem alguem ae ?
[03:20] <steveire> I've just installed education-mathematics
[03:21] <paradizelost> cristiano: i don't know latin
[03:21] <steveire> There's no change to my system though. Do I need to install something else to use it?
[03:21] <cristiano> eu naum sei falar outra lingua ...
[03:21] <steveire> !education
[03:21] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, steveire
[03:22] <cristiano> como eu fao para intalar o synaptic ???
[03:22] <steveire> Is there a main package, or anything else that I need?
[03:22] <bbrazil> !br
[03:22] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[03:22] <derekj212> hey i wanted some help upgrading from breezy to dapper... i followed that command in the FAQ and got through downloading some files until i got a 404 and the installer crashed. i have restarted a few times to retry and i wanted to see if i was doing something wrong
[03:23] <steveire> What does it mean to say that a package is a metapackage?
[03:23] <avestita> any moroccan here?
[03:23] <paradizelost> !metapackage
[03:23] <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.
[03:23] <bimberi> steveire: that it depends on other packages and nothing else
[03:24] <steveire> So what else do I need to use education-mathematics?
[03:24] <steveire> I thought adept would get sll dependant packages automatically.

[03:24] <paradizelost> steveire:    http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/warty/misc/education-mathematics

[03:25] <avestita> private
[03:25] <DJ_Music> am ..
[03:26] <steveire> Oh, so it's not what I thought it was...
[03:26] <DJ_Music> can i use comand su ?
[03:26] <paradizelost> !root
[03:26] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[03:26] <paradizelost> DJ_Music: does sudo work for you?
[03:26] <OrTigaS> DJ_Music:  just reboot and select recovery mode, then change ur passwd
[03:26] <avestita> yes
[03:26] <bimberi> steveire: it seems to only have "Suggests" and "Recommends" dependencies, which aren't going to be brought in
[03:26] <avestita> juste type passwd
[03:26] <avestita> it will give u the option to retype another one
[03:27] <avestita> and to confirm it
[03:27] <paradizelost> avestita: taht will change is current password
[03:27] <paradizelost> avestita: not neccessarily the root password which is what it sounds like what he wants
[03:28] <bimberi> !tell derekj212 about upgrade
[03:28] <avestita> yes i know
[03:28] <avestita> but i dont know if he wants to know its curren one
[03:28] <avestita> :s
[03:28] <steveire> cheers. Laterz
[03:28] <paradizelost> avestita: if he's logged in i think he knows his current one...
[03:28] <avestita> so what does he want so?
[03:28] <derekj212> ty bimberi
[03:28] <paradizelost> DJ_Music: does sudo work for you?!
[03:28] <bimberi> derekj212: np :)
[03:28] <derekj212> bimberi: that is the method that isnt working for me
[03:29] <derekj212> thats my problem
[03:29] <paradizelost> !tell DJ_Music about sudo
[03:29] <bimberi> derekj212: the upgrade-manager method?
[03:29] <avestita> derekj212 do u still want my sources
[03:29] <avestita> it will be easy to get the dapper
[03:29] <derekj212> avestita: let me try one more thing first
[03:29] <avestita> ok if u want :)
[03:29] <bimberi> derekj212: sorry *update-manager*
[03:29] <derekj212> where is the sources file
[03:29] <derekj212> what dir i mean
[03:29] <bimberi> /etc/apt
[03:29] <paradizelost> derekj212: /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:29] <avestita> yep
[03:29] <avestita> sources.list
[03:31] <bloekish> paradizelost: i ran  grub-install '(hd0)'  and rebooted, still get grub error 21. devices.map shows (hd0) /dev/hda (hd1) /dev/sda, menu.lst refers to root=(hd1,0)
[03:31] <paradizelost> bloekish: does XP boot if you don't have the external hooked up?
[03:32] <derekj212> i figured it out
[03:32] <derekj212> i had a 3rd party source that was currently down
[03:32] <avestita> so?
[03:32] <derekj212> and it was hanging waiting for it while it searched for upgrades
[03:32] <bloekish> paradizelost: well it's slackware but yes ;)
[03:33] <lwizardl> what causes xml errors when bookmarking sites or trying to print ?
[03:33] <zokPT> Hy! I have a problem with gnome-panel, I get an error message box displayed
[03:33] <zokPT>  that says "I've detected a panel already running, and will now exit".
[03:33] <zokPT> If I click "OK" in this box it goes away, but immediatly reappears. It also apears a msg 'gnome-panel already running bla bla bla' ...who can help me plz???
[03:33] <paradizelost> bloekish: just a sec, switching to my laptop.
[03:35] <derekj212> how long does the downloading and updating to dapper take?
[03:35] <derekj212> at about 90k/s
[03:35] <avestita> ????
[03:35] <derekj212> i mean the install itself, not download
[03:35] <avestita> 1h
[03:35] <avestita> i think
[03:35] <avestita> cose the speed change
[03:36] <avestita> for me it did change
[03:36] <benplaut> derekj212: about an hour or so
[03:36] <avestita> but the dpkg takes time
[03:36] <benplaut> much less when you install from scratch, though
[03:36] <bloekish> paradizelost: to clarify- the internal drive has another linux install, this always boots np. the external drive has the new ubuntu install, one large / partition +swap +a tiny one that i don't think is /boot (not mounted anywhere, will check). bios gives option to boot from any device on startup (inc usb). grub gets to 'loading stage 1.5' then 'error 21'
[03:36] <avestita> long time
[03:36] <avestita> and u have to wait for that also
[03:36] <avestita> otherwise it will generate problems
[03:36] <derekj212> what is it
[03:36] <avestita> what?
[03:37] <derekj212> dpkg
[03:37] <avestita> ah
[03:37] <paradizelost> bloekish: you using grub on the slackware install?
[03:37] <avestita> depackeging
[03:37] <derekj212> ah
[03:37] <avestita> its depackage the packages and install them
[03:37] <avestita> u have to wait until the end means about 2h
[03:37] <avestita> and then reboot u will have the lastest kernel 2.6.15-22
[03:38] <avestita> and dapper distrub
[03:38] <bloekish> paradizelost: no lilo
[03:38] <avestita> its really worthful i assure u :)
[03:38] <derekj212> should i expect IPW2200 wireless to work still on dapper?
[03:38] <paradizelost> bloekish: you could do both from grub if you switched.
[03:38] <derekj212> avestita: its already started
[03:38] <paradizelost> just boot to the internal and have it load from the external
[03:38] <avestita> really dont know dont have wireless im under LAN connection
[03:39] <avestita> :s
[03:39] <derekj212> i shall find out
[03:39] <avestita> yes u have time to search
[03:39] <bloekish> paradizelost: ok sounds a good idea - so i use the internal to boot with grub and add entries for the external drive?
[03:39] <avestita> but really dapper support many things, under breezy my sound card didnt work
[03:39] <avestita> now everything is fine
[03:39] <paradizelost> bloekish: that's the way i'd recommend
[03:40] <harisund> Wow, I am running Dapper, and it seems almost every 3rd hour there are some updates :)
[03:40] <paradizelost> mine is ubuntu on external, windows on internal, so i have grub and all on my external, so if there's no external, it doesn't even boot to grub, just straight to windows
[03:40] <avestita> hh yes :)
[03:40] <avestita> and takes time to update
[03:40] <vdepizzol> will XGL be incluided in apt-get in ubuntu 6.06?
[03:41] <paradizelost> bloekish: i of course also have XGL working on that, for the most part
[03:41] <paradizelost> vdepizzol: i believe that XGL is very very alpha
[03:41] <paradizelost> !xgl
[03:41] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[03:41] <bloekish> paradizelost: sound. i was kinda curious about booting off the usb drive (new laptop, new toys) but really i just want to try out ubuntu these days. enough messing about, i'll get on it w/grub ;)
[03:41] <paradizelost> hey, tha'ts not true, i have xgl working on breezy
[03:41] <andax> i've just had a nice kernel oops on an otherwise rock solid machine, (ubuntu 5.10) this is my first crash. syslog begins with " localhost kernel: [4505414.553000]  Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00080004" followed by listing of loaded modules, then some cryptic messages about the kernel_thread_helper or something has died. The snippet of the logfile representing the crash is posted at http://www.andax.org/?q=node/53 , Someone who ha
[03:41] <andax> s better understanding what this means could plz have a look and tell me what i should do now.... thanks.
[03:41] <paradizelost> bloekish: you could just use the livecd...
[03:43] <bloekish> paradizelost: ah but i wasn't sure if i wanted kde or gnome, and i've only got one cdr left..
[03:43] <paradizelost> so, would changeing all the spots whre it says brezy in my /etc/apt/sources.list to dapper be an easy way to upgrade?!
[03:43] <paradizelost> bloekish: you could do what i did.  set up LTSP, and modify it so that the FS is rw, and install kdm
[03:43] <paradizelost> :D
[03:44] <paradizelost> the guys in ltsp just keep telling me that's not waht it's meant to do...
[03:44] <bloekish> paradizelost: LTSP? linux term server proj?
[03:44] <paradizelost> yep
[03:44] <paradizelost> i have about 20 boot options, a bunch of floppy disk images that i use for diagnostics all the time
[03:44] <paradizelost> ubuntu network installer, and more
[03:45] <paradizelost> :D
[03:45] <martin> HOLA A TODOS
[03:45] <bloekish> well my venerable old 233mhz latitude cp is now in retiremnt as a thinclient so..
[03:45] <martin> hola a todos
[03:45] <Mastastealth> hola martin
[03:45] <martin> hola
[03:45] <bloekish> helo to you and your todo lists
[03:46] <martin> hola
[03:46] <vdepizzol> please speak in english :)
[03:46] <martin> hola mastastealth
[03:46] <paradizelost> !engrish
[03:46] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, paradizelost
[03:46] <bloekish> porque?!
[03:46] <spikeb> pork!
[03:47] <Mastastealth> tienes una pregunta martin? sabes ingles? ;)
[03:47] <vdepizzol> because a lot of people here can't speak in spanish :D
[03:47] <paradizelost> !boo
[03:47] <ubotu> paradizelost: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:47] <martin> no no se ingles y si tengo una pregunta
[03:47] <andax> generally if a  "kernel paging request" fails and causes the system to crash, does it indicate a hard disk failure or paging has nothing to do with swapping?
[03:48] <paradizelost> vdepizzol: http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en
[03:48] <paradizelost> andax: could be bad memory as well
[03:48] <martin> resulta que el amule no me deja descargar las listas de servidores cuando lo abro e inesperadamente se cierra la aplicacion
[03:48] <paradizelost> andax: because memory is used in "pages" as well
[03:48] <andax> martin, use english or at least try it.
[03:48] <bloekish> very helpful with questions, pregnant or otherwise
[03:49] <paradizelost> andax: this isn't #ubuntu-en
[03:49] <Mastastealth> andax, he doesnt know, but his question is: that amule is not downloading the server lists and the abruptly closes
[03:49] <paradizelost> :D
[03:49] <andax> paradizelost, thanks, i'll run a memtest86 to se what happens.
[03:49] <avestita> derekj212 everything is going well???????
[03:49] <derekj212> avestita: yeah its just downloading
[03:49] <vdepizzol> paradizelost: ento cada um pode falar a lingua que quiser, ? ento vou eu falar o meu bom e velho portugus! :) --> http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en
[03:49] <avestita> ok
[03:49] <Mastastealth> martin: no puedes importar los servidores manualmente?
[03:49] <avestita> im waiting with u :)
[03:49] <derekj212> several hours remaining as the speed keeps dropping to ~40k
[03:50] <martin> como lo puedo hacer
[03:50] <martin> soy novato en linux
[03:50] <avestita> dont worry it will increase
[03:50] <paradizelost> vdepizzol: sorry, i'm too lazy.....
[03:50] <martin> acabo de migrar de windows y me pase a ubuntu
[03:50] <Mastastealth> martin: dejame leer unas cositas para ver como hacerlo...
[03:50] <derekj212> yeah
[03:50] <martin> gracias
[03:51] <bloekish> more with the hideous google mistranslations. reminds me of when a german bloke's posting kept referring to 'large exhausts' from his applications.
[03:51] <paradizelost> ha!
[03:51] <Mastastealth> martin: no se queda habierto por ningun tiempo?
[03:51] <vdepizzol> martin: you can talk in spanish here: #ubuntu-es ... everyone will understand you ;)
[03:52] <bloekish> every day's a schoolday
[03:52] <paradizelost> hey, i'm gonna do an apt-get upgrade on my breezy w/ Xgl, who want's to bet it'll break??
[03:52] <rab> Is the "applications menu editor" always buggy?
[03:52] <martin> si por un instante y cuando le dosy descargar las listas de servidores lo hace por un instante y se cierra inesperadamente
[03:53] <bloekish> now open your books at page 'modern international relations in the information-driven world' (messrs BS and PR, 2005).
[03:53] <rab> can someone help me fix my applications menu
[03:53] <sarixe> would it be a good idea to install the latest dapper and upgrade it when the final comes out?
[03:53] <sarixe> or should i just wait?
[03:54] <bloekish> but anyway this is more fun than a halal butchers after the BSE scare, but i gotta sleep. night all, play nicely with the foreign people
[03:54] <paradizelost> sarixe: depends if you want to have it break or not... ;)
[03:54] <sarixe> lol
[03:54] <paradizelost> sarixe: not saying doing it will break...
[03:54] <sarixe> lol
[03:54] <sarixe> k
[03:54] <paradizelost> i haven't installed dapper yet...
[03:55] <sarixe> but would it be fairly simple to upgrade it in a few weeks? or should i just wait to install it?
[03:55] <paradizelost> !dapper
[03:55] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[03:55] <rab> can someone help me fix my applications menu

[03:55] <Mastastealth> http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

[03:56] <zokPT> If I click "OK" in this box it goes away, but immediatly reappears. It also apears a msg 'gnome-panel already running bla bla bla' ...who can help me plz???
[03:56] <Mastastealth> buena suerte :)
[03:56] <andax> why do some people think everyone will understand their own language? should i start talking in hungarian (that's my native) telling everyone to look for an online dictionary?  thats plain stupid. just being spanish is no excuse.
[03:56] <rab> paradizelost: Its very buggy, and some things that i enter dont show up right
[03:56] <paradizelost> !tell zokPT spam
[03:56] <paradizelost> zokPT: don't spam
[03:56] <sarixe> lol
[03:56] <Mastastealth> andax geez, if a guy needs help, someone who can speak his language will help
[03:56] <Mastastealth> otherwise ignore him, dont whine
[03:56] <paradizelost> rab: dapper or breezy?
[03:56] <Mastastealth> if a hungarian comes here, im sure youd help him too ;)
[03:56] <rab> breezy
[03:57] <andax> you got me i would.
[03:57] <zokPT> zokPT zokPT Hy! I have a problem with gnome-panel, I get an error message box displayed
[03:57] <zokPT> zokPT zokPT  that says "I've detected a panel already running, and will now exit".
[03:57] <zokPT> zokPT zokPT If I click "OK" in this box it goes away, but immediatly reappears. It also apears a msg 'gnome-panel already running bla bla bla' ...who can help me plz???
[03:57] <Mastastealth> well there ya go, we're all just trying to help our fellow ubuntuers :)
[03:57] <zcat[1] > !ops
[03:57] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[03:57] <rob> ?
[03:57] <rab> paradizelost: breezy
[03:58] <rob> zcat[1] , whats going on?
[03:58] <HedgeMage> what's up zcat[1]  ?
[03:58] <zcat[1] > zokPT doesn't seem to have got the hint?
[03:58] <nalioth> zcat[1] : yes?
[03:58] <benplaut> rob, HedgeMage, nalioth ... i think it's zokPT
[03:58] <HedgeMage> zcat[1] : he seems to have now.
[03:58] <rob> zcat[1] , regarding what?
[03:58] <paradizelost> rab: have you used automatix on that machine in the past?
[03:58] <zokPT> zcat[1] ,  dont understand what u mean
[03:58] <rab> paradizelost: yessir
[03:58] <paradizelost> rab: it F*cks things up big time
[03:59] <paradizelost> that's your problem .  don't use automatix
[03:59] <HedgeMage> rob, nalioth, repasting those three lines starting with his nick twice, repeatedly.
[03:59] <zcat[1] > nm.. just ignore me..
[03:59] <paradizelost> !automatix
[03:59] <ubotu> automatix is, like, unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, such as !easyubuntu.
[03:59] <rab> paradizelost: ...*sighs* anyway to fix it?
[03:59] <HedgeMage> but he seems to have stopped.
[03:59] <paradizelost> rab: reinstall...
[03:59] <rab> WTF NO
[03:59] <rob> well, I'll keep an eye out
[03:59] <rab> i just installed
[03:59] <paradizelost> rab: so you won't lose much...
[03:59] <rab> idc i dont have the time
[03:59] <paradizelost> can anyone help rab fix an automatix problem?
[04:00] <paradizelost> rab: try installing gentoo on it then.....
[04:00] <paradizelost> :D
[04:00] <rab> no
[04:00] <rob> well, I guess he shouldn't have used Automatix
[04:00] <rab> are there any alternitives for a menu editor
[04:00] <rob> it isn't offical after all, and is known to break systems
[04:00] <zcat[1] > Not sure what automatix screws up, but i'd suggest get a clean sources-list from source-o-matic and then apt-get dist-upgrade to clean things up..
[04:01] <paradizelost> rab: you'll probably end up reinstalling.
[04:01] <rob> who knows what automatix has screwed up
[04:01] <paradizelost> rab: i'm sory....
[04:01] <baconbacon> automatix screws a lot of things
[04:01] <rab> fuck..
[04:02] <paradizelost> well, it's official, my XGL install is now hosed...
[04:02] <nomasteryoda> lol
[04:02] <paradizelost> oh well.
[04:02] <rob> rab, automatix is really horrible as you found out (and not much we can do to stop), check out the wiki after you reinstall and follow the nice guides there, or better yet check out http://help.ubuntu.com (for breezy) or http://doc.ubuntu.com (dapper)
[04:02] <rob> bah
[04:02] <zcat[1] > my Xgl is all fixed again.. went weird after last night's updates, menus appearing behind their weindows and stuff. Updated today and it's sweet again.
[04:02] <rob> oh well
[04:03] <zcat[1] > gotta loce alpha software :)
[04:03] <zcat[1] > *love
[04:03] <nomasteryoda> zcat[1] , what hardware you runningit on?
[04:03] <nomasteryoda> xgl that is
[04:03] <zcat[1] > nvidia
[04:03] <nomasteryoda> ah, figures... the only video to do linux on
[04:03] <nomasteryoda> =D
[04:03] <paradizelost> zcat[1] : mine was on breezy, so it was a b!tch to get working
[04:04] <baconbacon> do you think xgl has any chance running on a lousy intel laptop card?
[04:04] <nomasteryoda> lol
[04:04] <nomasteryoda> no
[04:04] <thev> anyone here know much about SANE?
[04:04] <nomasteryoda> way
[04:04] <thev> I'm going inSANE
[04:04] <nomasteryoda> baconbacon, no way
[04:04] <zcat[1] > yeah.. until someone does some open hardware.. I'm not happy with nvidia's blob..
[04:04] <Spitty> well, which laptop card?
[04:04] <paradizelost> baconbacon: probly not, IIRC, intel disables a lot of opengl hardware compatibilites
[04:04] <baconbacon> 82852/855GM
[04:04] <nomasteryoda> zcat[1] , true, but at least it works
[04:04] <Spitty> I don't think so, no
[04:04] <baconbacon> ok just asking
[04:04] <nomasteryoda> i have an ati mobility and i know it won't
[04:05] <nomasteryoda> but was hoping
[04:05] <paradizelost> i had a lot of laptops that couldn't run really slick scrensavers
[04:05] <zcat[1] > yeah, but I have this little stallman on my shoulder now..
[04:05] <nomasteryoda> or bzflag
[04:05] <Spitty> it runs on my ati mobility
[04:05] <Spitty> x200m
[04:05] <nomasteryoda> ah
[04:05] <paradizelost> just stay away from intel graphics cards
[04:05] <nomasteryoda> yea, this is circa 2000 laptop
[04:05] <nomasteryoda> totally
[04:05] <baconbacon> hmm i can play most games to ...
[04:05] <nomasteryoda> baconbacon, but not bzflag...
[04:06] <zcat[1] > my lappy's ati mobility. No way it'll run Xgl :(  but still runs dapper ok.
[04:06] <paradizelost> baconbacon: are you using windows directx?
[04:06] <nomasteryoda> anything doing high 3D rendering
[04:06] <nomasteryoda> lol
[04:06] <nomasteryoda> zcat[1] , ya dapper is good on this dell, but locks up occasionally
[04:06] <nomasteryoda> only seen that on Debian... and dapper
[04:07] <baconbacon> bzflag did lag a bit..
[04:07] <nomasteryoda> or tuxracer
[04:07] <baconbacon> but tux, neverball, etc... were ok
[04:07] <zcat[1] > never had it lock up on the lappy (it's a dell too) but the machine with the nvidia and xgl locks up quite often.. i suspect dodgy hardware though.
[04:07] <pestilence> how do i figure out what process is listening on a certain port?
[04:07] <baconbacon> oh wait no that's another machine, tux sucks too
[04:08] <zcat[1] > pestilence: netstat
[04:08] <paradizelost> ayone have a link to dapper flight 7 install cd?
[04:08] <pestilence> zcat[1] : yes, but how
[04:08] <pestilence> zcat[1] : it shows up in netstat -l -t, but not netstat -l
[04:08] <zcat[1] > umm.. I dunno  :)
[04:08] <Spitty> the only time I've had my daper lock up is when I was trying bleeding-edge XGL stuff
[04:08] <paradizelost> baconbacon: there's your sign that opengl is off for the most part
[04:08] <paradizelost> !dapper
[04:08] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[04:08] <zcat[1] > I think netstat gives you the pID then you look that up in ps
[04:08] <pestilence> zcat[1] : it gives an "inode"
[04:09] <Spitty> paradizelost: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperFlight7?highlight=%287%29%7C%28Flight%29
[04:09] <zcat[1] > ahh, ok.
[04:09] <pestilence> what do i do with it
[04:09] <zcat[1] > flight9 > beta2 ?
[04:09] <baconbacon> flight7 > beta2
[04:09] <paradizelost> thanks
[04:09] <Spitty> we're not up to flight 9 yet, I don't think., but flight 7 is greater than beta 2, yes
[04:10] <nomasteryoda> that's where i'm at now... Linux 2.6.15-21-386 #1 PREEMPT Fri Apr 21 16:43:33 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[04:10] <zcat[1] > confusing.. I think I'll just track the repos :)
