[13:35] <eremite> How do I make Opera Unite my default browser in Ubuntu jaunty?
[13:35] <eremite> I cant figure it out
[13:35] <eremite> It wont let me make it the default
[13:36] <mobi-sheep> eremite: System --> Preferences --> Preferred Applications ?
[13:36] <eremite> Tried, apps still use FF to open sites
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> eremite: its in here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[13:36] <xuebix> kernel compile on celeron m 540 = bad idea + 3hours and counting (and i removed the crap)
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> eremite: you will also need to set it in other apps that have their own browser knowledge if they do not tap into the default one (or if you have statically set it in an app)
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> xuebix: not bad at all
[13:37] <bob_rock> ubottu: !tell bob_rock about love

[13:38] <eremite> ActionParsnip, this should be as simple as checking a boix.  It has been in every other Opera release.  Im not reading your long-ass link, it doesnt have the info I asked for.
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> xuebix: gentoo back in the day :)

[13:40] <eremite> That info si outdated.  Im asking for Opera Unite instructions, which are not the same as these.
[13:40] <xuebix> ubottu: !info KernelCheck
[13:40] <eremite> I did that already, but the option USED to be in Opera.
[13:40] <bob_rock> Sory I just practice how to use it
[13:40] <eremite> You used to be able to check a box in prefernces that asked if you wanted to check if Opera was the default on startup.
[13:40] <bazhang> eremite, opera unite is not in the repos
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> eremite: http://my.opera.com/Tamil/blog/set-opera-as-default-browser

[13:51] <AzMoo> Hey guys, I'm having issues getting my ethernet card working on 9.04. lspci tells me it's an Nvidia MCP67 and lsmod tells me that the forcedeth module is loaded. It detects the interface but never gets an IP address. I can see it making the request on the router though, and it returns an address, but it never accepts it.
[13:52] <Mylan> does anyone know how can I acces an IRC network over a proxy?
[13:52] <n0gear> does restricted-extras package include flash?
[13:52] <lkarydas> Hi all!

[13:54] <neongrau> i have a sendmail setup from an gentoo server i want to migrate to ubuntu server. i already have 2 proper .mc files to generate 2 sendmail.cf's but i can't seem to figure out how to integrate them with the ubuntu startscripts or its /etc/mail/sendmail.conf :(
[13:55] <mdm> neongrau: m4
[13:55] <neongrau> #/usr/sbin/sendmail -C/etc/mail/sendmail-rx.cf -L sm-mta-rx -bd -O Loglevel=14 -qp
[13:55] <neongrau> #/usr/sbin/sendmail                            -L sm-mta-tx -bd -q15m
[13:55] <usr13> bob_rock: bob_rock ALL=NOPASSWD:/home/rob_roc/bin/on-off-net
[13:56] <neongrau> in fact all i need to do is figure out how to thell the init script to start and stop these 2 sendmail processes
[13:56] <mdm> neongrau: mc files are a script for the processor m4, you need to convert them to .cf files.  and you do this with the command m4
[13:56] <usr13> bob_rock: Where /home/rob_roc/on-off-net  is your script to turn off and on your net.
[13:56] <bob_rock> usr13: Tell the clear way!
[13:56] <neongrau> mdm: i know, i already got them, my prob is the init.d script of ubuntu
[13:57] <Blinkiz> Hi. I need some advice. Am about to start documenting our network and servers here. I want to use the right tools for this from the beginning. Some kind of web-based is the best. Like a wiki och a special open source project aiming at creating a documentation portal. Any advice please?
[13:57] <sipior> neongrau: the sendmail script in /etc/init.d should already handle starting and stopping the service. did it not get installed when you added sendmail?
[13:58] <mdm> neongrau: what is the problem you have with the init script?
[13:58] <neongrau> sipior: ofc but default is it just starts sendmail with whatever /etc/mail/sendmail.cf there is (from the default setup)
[13:58] <Jonny> Are there any swish++ experts here? I'm having trouble getting filters to work when using index++
[13:58] <lkarydas> Can anyone help me with an x crash problem?
[13:59] <sipior> neongrau: and you can't simply replace sendmail.cf?
[14:00] <neongrau> sipior: i can and i did already. it's starting the one process, and 2 queue runne rprocesses i don't want in that form (it fails to see the proper pid files)
[14:00] <mmx_sse> Hi all
[14:01] <AzMoo> Does ubuntu have a firewall set by default?
[14:01] <mdm> neongrau: do you mean its starting an MTA and a MSA?  that is your conf file, one recives email the other sends it
[14:01] <usr13> bob_rock: Create the script, name it on-off-nic, chmod 4755 on-off-nic; mkdir bin/; cp on-off-nic bin/; visudo ; (add line):  bob_rock ALL=NOPASSWD:/home/rob_rock/bin/on-off-net
[14:01] <usr13> bob_rock: something to that effect...
[14:01] <bkraptor> does anyone know how to control the new pointer acceleration scheme in xorg 1.6? http://www.x.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/PointerAcceleration
[14:02] <scunizi> AzMoo: yes.. it uses iptables to do it.
[14:02] <AzMoo> scunizi: is there a gui to turn it off?
[14:02] <neongrau> mdm: yep thats whats it's probably doing. but it's not starting the 2nd process the way i want (with -C/etc/mail/sendmail-rx.cf) as extra options
[14:02] <sipior> neongrau: what syntax are you using to specify the location of these files?
[14:02] <scunizi> AzMoo: what are you trying to do that you can't?
[14:03] <usr13> bob_rock: Then you can create a launcher on the desktop for it.

[14:03] <eremite> OK, I figured out how to set Opera as the default browser even when it wouldnt work via System>Preferences>Preferred Apps.  I made an html file, right clicked it and chose to open the file with Opera instead of FF3 as the default app.  Problem solved.
[14:03] <sipior> neongrau: can you modify the settings in /etc/default/sendmail?
[14:03] <AzMoo> scunizi: I'm having trouble getting an IP from dhcp. Can get the network if I set it static and I can see the request for an address on the router, but it doesn't accept the response.
[14:03] <usr13> bob_rock: actually you can't do it in exactly that order.
[14:03] <brianV> Can someone recommend a GTK-based editor for writing PHP code? I've been using kate under KDE, but I am stuck with Gnome for now
[14:03] <bob_rock> usr13: seem my wlan0 cannot be stopped and it says ERROR: Can't change MAC: interface up or not permission: Device or resource busy
[14:03] <mdm> neongrau: its supposed to do that.  the process that you think of, sendmail is on half of the smtp archtecture.  When your email client sends mail (when you do) you connect to one part, it then tells the other part to pass that mail on.  Its suposed to be like that, its part of the architecture, its part of security, and its supposed to be like that
[14:04] <mdm> neongrau: that isnt a ubuntu thing btw its a smtp and sendmail thing
[14:04] <usr13> bob_rock: mkdir bin ; cd bin ; nano on-off-nic ; #add lines as needed ;  chmod 4755 on-off-nic ;  visudo ; (add line):  bob_rock ALL=NOPASSWD:/home/rob_rock/bin/on-off-net
[14:05] <scunizi> AzMoo: the firewall wouldn't be preventing that. but it was a good thought.  Is this a wireless connection?

[14:06] <sipior> woozly: remember to add the "-t nat" table specification when you issue an iptables -F.
[14:06] <mdm> neongrau: what about it?
[14:06] <AzMoo> scunizi: I fixed it.
[14:06] <scunizi> AzMoo: how?

[14:07] <AzMoo> scunizi: DHCP had a reservation for the MAC with the wrong hostname. Switched it to the correct hostname and everything came good.
[14:07] <mdm> neongrau: do you mean you want to have the init script use those? change them to sendmail.cf and submit.cf
[14:07] <disappearedng> I tried chown mysql:mysql but it doesn't work
[14:07] <natschil> brianV: I know the feeling :)
[14:07] <AzMoo> scunizi: ta for the response :)
[14:07] <scunizi> AzMoo: np :)
[14:07] <neongrau> mdm: exactly, the config part of sendmail is perfectly fine. just the starting/stoppting via the init script is my prob
[14:08] <AzMoo> scunizi: having said that, *is* there somewhere to modify the firewall, for future reference?
[14:08] <mdm> neongrau: either rename sendmail-rx.cf to submit.cf or change the init script
[14:08] <bob_rock> usr13: scirpt always says error (ERROR: Can't change MAC: interface up or not permission: Device or resource busy)
[14:08] <scunizi> !ufw | AzMoo this is popular but doesn't touch everything iptables can do.
[14:08] <ubu1> How to close virtual keyborad?
[14:08] <mdm> neongrau: as for the queue options you have to change those as well, altho the only thing I notice that inst normal is the log level
[14:09] <usr13> bob_rock: if you change the nic you must first take it down, ifconfig eth0 down
[14:09] <cyberghoser1> bob_rock, did your resolution got fixed finaly ?
[14:09] <AzMoo> scunizi: nice one, thanks. I've played with iptables a bit in the past for masquerading, so I'm not entirely unfamiliar.
[14:09] <usr13> bob_rock: How old are you?
[14:10] <c4ngkir_reppe> dhh
[14:10] <bob_rock> cyberghoser1:  hey good to see you. After digging my machine, the way to change resolution permanently is just go to System -> Preferences -> Display. No need to dig up my /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Just reboot my machine and it stays to resolution what i want.
[14:10] <cyberghoser1> bob_rock, yes that was the fastest way
[14:11] <cyberghoser1> i thought you didnt had success with it thats why i didnt suggest it :)

[14:16] <aethelrick> hi all
[14:16] <jerroome> if yes, you can certainly read from, you need to find the right id
[14:16] <sipior> neongrau: between pidof and xargs, i think you can whip something up to solve that :-)
[14:17] <mdm> neongrau: use /etc/init.d/sendmail stop to stop sendmail
[14:17] <jerroome> and then try to dump the content with od or hexdump
[14:17] <neongrau> sure. but it'd nice to know why a brand new install of ubuntu isn't behaving like any other linux  used the last 10 years
[14:17] <mobi-sheep> !vnc | enovativ
[14:17] <aethelrick> anyone here using ubuntu as a streaming media server? more specifically, do you know of any server software that is better than mediatomb?
[14:17] <jerroome> if your able to dump, you're able to read
[14:18] <mdm> and neongrau no sendmail does not run as sendmail, it runs as sendmail-mta and sendmail-msa
[14:18] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: The guide do include ssh-over-vnc.
[14:18] <mdm> err msp
[14:18] <jerroome> find out which fs is used and mount it
[14:18] <enovativ> mobi-sheep: thanks i will read and then implement
[14:18] <mdm> aethelrick: do you mean like mythtv?
[14:19] <sipior> neongrau: it might be useful to try with the verbose (-v) switch, to get more data. my guess is that the process name is confusing killall.
[14:20] <znh> enovativ, FreeNX is faster and more secure I'd recommend that over VNC
[14:21] <aethelrick> mdm: sort of. I currently have a SuSE box setup with mediatomb that streams audio and video to my PS3 which serves as a media extender. This box is "headless" and not in the lounge near the TV (which is good because my lounge is quiet). It's been over a year (maybe two) since I set this up and I'm wondering if there;s anything better out there as I'm about to migrate the box to ubuntu
[14:21] <disappearedng> Hey when I do a chown 700 onto a symlink do I change the insides of the symlink too?
[14:21] <enovativ> znh: thanks
[14:21] <enovativ> znh: i heard of FreeNX
[14:21] <neongrau> mdm: "killall -9 sendmail-mta" did indeed work, would've been nice to see the correct processname in ps :S
[14:22] <sipior> disappearedng: not by default, but you can specify a no-dereference switch (-h, i think, check the man page)
[14:23] <mdm> neongrau: dont use it, it would be a good way to loose email
[14:24] <enovativ> znh: do you have to install the freenx client
[14:24] <neongrau> i'm just using it because the setup isn't yet working and bc of the pid files not matching i can't properly stop them
[14:24] <mdm> aethelrick: what you are decribing is on aspect of mythtv, I run a 4TB media server in my ofice, with 3 tvs all reading from it as well as two media players that play music.  I assume that is what you mean by streaming
[14:24] <enovativ> i want to see my linux box from work, but i do not have the "rights" to install software on my machine at work
[14:25] <aethelrick> mdm: yup
[14:25] <znh> enovativ, yes. But webbased applications are not secure enough for remote desktop things
[14:25] <SHBot> How can I know if my system is 32 bits or 64 bits?
[14:25] <Bodsda> SHBot: uname -a
[14:25] <SHBot> thanks
[14:26] <aethelrick> mdm: does it play nice with PS3 and Mac (iTunes) for clients?
[14:26] <enovativ> znh: of well freenx will not work...all i want to be able to do is fire uop a broswer, and get to my linux box
[14:26] <stew> SHBot: dpkg-architecture|grep DEB_BUILD_ARCH_CPU
[14:26] <enovativ> so does put me back at using SSH and VNC ?
[14:26] <stew> SHBot: uname -a could tell you you are running a amd64 kernel even if your system is a 32 bit install
[14:27] <znh> enovativ, SSH requires a application as well
[14:27] <mdm> aethelrick: others use it to (the ps3 I know).  But I own neither a mac nor a ps3 myself.   Its anything that can read the actual myth stream or UPNP
[14:27] <Bodsda> stew: who would be doing that?
[14:27] <aethelrick> mdm: thanks, I'll check it out
[14:27] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: SSH + Screen + Console-based Apps? :3
[14:27] <enovativ> znh:  on the client ?
[14:27] <znh> enovativ, yes
[14:27] <enovativ> mobi-sheep: i don't get it
[14:28] <enovativ> i guess there should be a way to do this like windoze Web Connection
[14:28] <stew> Bodsda: lots of people?  especaily those wanting to use more than 4g of ram on a i386
[14:28] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: It's like accessing to your computer's terminal from your workplace.  What are you trying to do from your workplace though?
[14:28] <delopart> hey
[14:29] <romulo> hi there, whats the name of the black notification app? since i replaced gdm with kdm i no longer get them, even with compiz enabled
[14:29] <delopart> is there a way to covert to mp3 from flv
[14:29] <delopart> i am using ubuntu
[14:29] <Bodsda> stew: just never heard of anyone wanting to run a 64bit kernel with a 32bit distro, -- why not just run a 64bit distro?
[14:29] <enovativ> mobi-sheep: i am teaching myself jooomla and php, so i want to be able to connect my linux box from work, and on my lunch break continue my studies
[14:29] <mobi-sheep> !info notify-osd | romulo
[14:30] <stew> Bodsda: becuase lots of proprietary software isn't available in 64 bit, and one doesn't feel like dealing with chroots
[14:30] <Darael> delopart: well, flv is a video format, so you'd need to extract the audio...  It's probably doable with ffmpeg
[14:30] <sarmisak> stew: why don't you just install with --force-architecture?
[14:30] <Bodsda> stew: erm. ok
[14:30] <romulo> ubottu: i get notifications, but not the black beauty ones
[14:30] <mdm> Bodsda: becase some of us have more then one system and dont like to keep two local repositories
[14:31] <burno> how can i change an icon?
[14:31] <Bodsda> mdm: thats a more reasonable reason, thanks
[14:31] <stew> sarmisak: because pretty much people should never use --force-anything, and lots of this proprietary software isn't available as a .deb anyway
[14:31] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: VNC is slow -- even on local network.
[14:31] <sarmisak> stew: if you are compiling it, it should compile for 64bit easily. if it is a .bin file, then you are right
[14:31] <mdm> Bodsda: it was simply an example, i wouldnt call it more reasonable.
[14:32] <delopart> weel
[14:32] <delopart> is there a way to union of two thing s on ubuntu
[14:32] <delopart> i downloaded video which is two parts
[14:32] <Bodsda> mdm: its a more likely example then running a 32bit distro on a 64bit kernel
[14:32] <delopart> i convert it to mp3 and i put on my mp3 player
[14:32] <enovativ> mobi-sheep: so is there a way to access my linux box from a web browser ...securely...without installing a client on my windoze box at work ?
[14:32] <sarmisak> delopart: cat file1.ext file2.ext > newfile.ext
[14:32] <stew> sarmisak: neither, and some of the i386  stuff i'm using doesn't have source available.  some of the stuff can't be compiled for 64bit easily.  other stuff I'm using can be compiled for 64 bit easily, and it doesn't work
[14:33] <delopart> but this is two partes i need one part to listen easily
[14:33] <iceroot> *.pl = pearl?
[14:33] <delopart> sarmisak,  this is mp3 file
[14:33] <delopart> does it work
[14:33] <lstarnes> iceroot: perl
[14:33] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: You want the screen, don't you?  The GUI.
[14:33] <iceroot> lstarnes: thx
[14:34] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: There are way to ssh into your linux box using Putty (standalone application) which mean you don't have to install anything.  Just click and run.
[14:34] <ian_> Problem with pidgin on jaunty: "Available-Connecting " on status...
[14:34] <delopart> let see
[14:34] <raidghost> Good afternoon
[14:34] <delopart> :D
[14:34] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: But as for displaying your X11 screen constantly, it may be slow.  You also can do this --> ssh -X (Forwarding) which mean it'll bring the GUi to your screen.
[14:35] <Spike1506> how come firefox shows me a � for characters like: é
[14:35] <mdm> iceroot: probbly, but locking files to their extensions is a very dos centric way of looking at files
[14:35] <Spike1506> it did work a few days back
[14:35] <usr13> mobi-sheep: Can you do that from a MS Windows box using putty?
[14:35] <sipior> Spike1506: change the font? or the default encoding?
[14:35] <ian_> I can't connect actually
[14:36] <mobi-sheep> usr13: Putty is for Windows.
[14:36] <vadi2> How can I choose what sound device should be getting the audio output and input?
[14:36] <mdm> mobi-sheep: use -Y instead of -X
[14:36] <delopart> it is to big
[14:37] <Spike1506> sipior, what is the default encoding?
[14:37] <usr13> mobi-sheep: Does he need vnc?
[14:37] <mobi-sheep> usr13: It's for terminal.  He might want to run VNC standalone application.
[14:37] <AzMoo> !info nvidia
[14:38] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: You should try vnc-over-ssh first to see if it does work well to your needs (and is NOT slow).
[14:38] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: Then if that does not work well, you'll know your alternative choices.
[14:38] <sipior> Spike1506: hunt around in your firefox preference dialogue for "Fonts", and then try the "Advanced" button to set the default character encoding to UTF-8, for example.
[14:38] <neolima> anyone can help me with Samba Pdc?
[14:38] <AzMoo> !nvidia
[14:38] <enovativ> mobi-sheep:  i will do so...you have been a big help
[14:39] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: No problem.  To clear this up, run ssh -X (or ssh -Y) in your machine and run a command "firefox &" would bring a firefox to your screen (from your remote machine).
[14:39] <faris> Hey guys, I seem to be having an issue with ubuntu detecting my cdrom drive I think it has to do with the ata_piix error, I also can't boot into the live cd without getting an error
[14:40] <faris> due to ubuntu failing to detrct my cdrom
[14:40] <delopart> hey
[14:40] <delopart> is there a channel to ecsound
[14:40] <enriq> hi. how do I mount a .img
[14:40] <delopart> in that serer
[14:40] <sipior> faris: have you verified that the drive works under other operating systems?
[14:40] <faris> yes it work under windows
[14:40] <neolima> Anyone can help me with SAMBA PDC?
[14:40] <jack_> can anybody tell me a software for ubuntu to video my desktop ? :D

[14:40] <delopart> hey
[14:41] <enovativ> mobi-sheep: thanks....hey..what is the url for the logging of this channel so i can look for this later at work
[14:41] <Pici> !screencast | jack_
[14:41] <delopart> is there a channel for multimedia problem in that server
[14:41] <ImpRadar> jack: 2secs there was an artical in linux format this month ill go look
[14:41] <mobi-sheep> !logs | enovativ
[14:41] <raidghost> losg meg her og der
[14:41] <bastidrazor> enriq, from my understanding you would need to convert the .img to .iso .. then mount it .. poweriso can do the conversion
[14:41] <jack_> ok
[14:41] <Pici> !no | raidghost
[14:41] <jack_> i need a software to record my desktop
[14:41] <jack_> :D
[14:41] <faris> istanbul can do that
[14:41] <jack_> because i have low resolution with my phone
[14:42] <enriq> bastidrazor: thanks
[14:42] <Pici> jack_: read the response that ubottu told you above
[14:42] <jack_> i red it :p
[14:42] <delopart> is there anyone to face that problem
[14:42] <tunnuz> Hello, I'm back.
[14:42] <delopart> http://paste.org/8581
[14:43] <tuntun> Hi. Is it possible to use an NTFS partition for linux swap?
[14:43] <mobi-sheep> enovativ: http://maketecheasier.com/use-ssh-x-forwarding-to-run-remote-apps/2009/06/22
[14:43] <faris> I don't think thats possible
[14:43] <usr13> tuntun: No
[14:43] <jerroome> tuntun no
[14:44] <tuntun> bugger.
[14:44] <stew> tuntun: perhaps by putting a swapfile on it, but you certainly could not use the entire partition
[14:44] <ImpRadar> jack_:  ow ok lol what did you think, any of them any good
[14:44] <tunnuz> So ... this is the fourth time I burn my Ubuntu image and the same file result to be corrupted when I check the drive for defects. The checksum is correct before burning and the verification after burning says it's ok.
[14:44] <tunnuz> And of course the partitioning still hangs at 33%.
[14:44] <jerroome> tuntun accessing ntfs isn't fast at all on linux, so putting swap onto is a very bad idea
[14:44] <mdm> tuntun: contrary to CI, yes you can make swap on a nfs partition.  I would ask why you want to do it however
[14:45] <faris> Could the jumper settings on my ide dvd drive be the cause of ubuntu not being able to use the drive, even though it worked in windows?
[14:45] <jack_> found :D
[14:45] <jack_> thanks
[14:45] <sipior> mdm: ntfs, not nfs.
[14:45] <mdm> sipior: same idea, again why tho
[14:46] <sipior> mdm: glutton for punishment?
[14:46] <tunnuz> Is there a way to install from an USB drive?!
[14:46] <mobi-sheep> faris: Do you have more than 1 disc readers?
[14:46] <mdm> mount whatever, make a file, loopback mount it, mkswap on it
[14:46] <tuntun> stew, I've got a 20gb NTFS partition, cant create any more because there are already four partitions, can I get linux to use the NTFS instead?
[14:46] <usr13> !usb | tuntun
[14:46] <jerroome> mdm : how do you manage to use a ntfs partitionb as swap ???????
[14:46] <NET||abuse> looking into using pgp keys a bit more for secure mail, signatures etc..
[14:46] <mobi-sheep> tuntun: Linux use a SWAP filesystem, not NTFS filesystem.
[14:46] <NET||abuse> what keyserver would people recomned using?
[14:46] <faris> mobi-sheep: No i have just the one, with two hard drives(one ide,one sata)
[14:46] <mdm> jerroome: I would call it stupid linux tricks more then anything else, its why I asked why he wanted to do it
[14:47] <jerroome> ok, because it doesn't make sense
[14:47] <usr13> tuntun: What exactly is your situation?  (What do you need to do?)
[14:47] <NET||abuse> and what resons do people generally have for getting into key usage and web of trust key signing etc..
[14:47] <stew> tuntun: you can create more than 4 if you make one an extended partition containing multiple logical partitions
[14:47] <jerroome> see u another day guys ...
[14:47] <jerroome> !quit
[14:47] <mdm> the ONLY way I see it could make sense if you were doing it on a diskless box, even then I would tell you to put in more memory and do whatever you needed more memory for elsewhere
[14:48] <tuntun> I've got a 20gb NTFS partition, half-full
[14:48] <tuntun> cant use an extended partition
[14:49] <mdm> tuntun: just shrink the ntfs partition and make a swap partition in the cleared spacve
[14:49] <usr13> tunnuz: Or, if you have enough RAM, I guess you could just not use swap
[14:50] <jeffwyeh> does anyone know what drivers to install for the ati x1400 mobility in jaunty?
[14:50] <Pici> jeffwyeh: You should be okay using the open drivers.
[14:51] <jeffwyeh> Pici: does that mean radeon/radeonhd? i'm not sure what drivers i'm using as of now, as compiz worked out of box, so i never had a need to look into it
[14:51] <Pici> jeffwyeh: If it worked ootb, then its using the proper drivers then. The restricted drivers do not support the x1400 in Jaunty.
[14:51] <bastidrazor> jeffwyeh, that would be the radeon drivers.
[14:51] <tunnuz> usr13, I guess you were talking to tuntun :)
[14:52] <usr13> o, sorry
[14:52] <tunnuz> !swap

[14:52] <tunnuz> !ubuntu
[14:53] <tunnuz> ah thanks
[14:53] <jeffwyeh> Pici: i guess the problem then is that i'm getting an error saying my video card doesn't have shader model 3.0 when i try to run some games. would installing radeonhd drivers solve that?
[14:53] <drcode_> hi all
[14:54] <BenTM> i try to install an twiki system, after installation i get follow msg.: Can't locate Unicodepath in @INC
[14:54] <drcode_> is there ubuntu for old pc like pentume 200 with x?
[14:54] <Um_cara_qualquer> anyone knows a nice video converter?
[14:54] <raidghost> drcode_: i386
[14:54] <sipior> Um_cara_qualquer: Handbrake is quite nice.
[14:54] <drcode_> ?
[14:55] <mdm> drcode: yes its called download it and install it, there is nothing extra special about them
[14:55] <Um_cara_qualquer> sipior: sudo apt-get install handbrake right?
[14:55] <drcode_> some light ver of ubuntu?
[14:55] <sipior> drcode: you might have a look at xubuntu. consider stuffing the box full of as much memory as you can get your hands on.
[14:55] <drcode_> I know some projects like puppy linux and DSL
[14:55] <usr13> drcode_: xubuntu
[14:55] <drcode_> is there somthing based on ubuntu?
[14:55] <drcode_> xubuntu will work on p200 ?
[14:55] <sipior> Um_cara_qualquer: not in the repositories, to my knowledge, but easily available from their website.
[14:56] <Um_cara_qualquer> humm
[14:56] <loompek> morning

[14:56] <drcode_> k
[14:56] <drcode_> thanx
[14:57] <jeffwyeh> Pici: thanks, i'll give it a shot. last question: where/how do i install the radeonhd driver?
[14:58] <Pici> jeffwyeh: Install the xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd package
[14:58] <jeffwyeh> Pici: alright, thanks!
[14:58] <usr13> jeffwyeh: apt-cache search radeon
[14:59] <kohlrak> how do i find out what services are using what ports?
[14:59] <DougieRichardson> hi all, any Xorg experts around?

[15:08] <usr13> DougieRichardson: So you are using i810 driver?
[15:08] <burno> can someone help me please? Pidgin is showing in every viewports taskbar... can i change that? using ubuntu 9.04
[15:08] <bullgard4>  After 8.04.2>9.04 upgrade NetworkManager_Applet <IP_ADDRESS> shows "Wired Network > device not managed". But I can ping another computer in the LAN and call web sites via Firefox. How to make that the state message will change to 'Auto eth0'?
[15:08] <DougieRichardson> usr13: I'm not sure in the wonderful world of autoconfigures Xorg - how to tell?
[15:09] <usr13> DougieRichardson: Tell me what you've done to install video driver.
[15:09] <Galbadore> Does anyone else have the problem with apt-get update/upgrade starts and on larger files, a few Megabytes or more, comes to a screaching crawl. But only from the main archive.ubuntu.com repository. I use a different one mostly, but it's been going on for a while with the main one.
[15:10] <mbeierl> burno: usually only windows that "require attention" show in all viewport's taskbars.  Is pidgin trying to inform you of something, perhaps?
[15:11] <DougieRichardson> usr13: sorry you miss my point - the system has functioned fine until the last few days.  The driver works, there's no issues there.  If i suspend and resume it's fine and if I hibernate too. However if I shutdown and boot I get a blank screen.  Running repair mode and xorg's check util finds xorg.conf errors and repairs them.
[15:11] <Galbadore> Right now, a 4.757MB file and shows 15 min, which is horrible.

[15:14] <BlakHat_> aight lemme try
[15:14] <mbeierl> mobi-sheep: DOH!  I never noticed - 'cos I just checked here (4 viewports) but on the one I checked, I had so many others opened I didn't see it.  :)
[15:15] <burno> mobi-sheep: no i don't
[15:15] <mobi-sheep> mbeierl: Here you go.  You have a bug too. :)
[15:15] <DougieRichardson> usr13: well, whatever is called from the recovery option on grubs boot menu, same effect though
[15:15] <Justcop> I am having a problem with my sound. It only seems to be able to work with one program at a time. When I have a music program open youtube videos have no sound. I have to close the music prgram and reboot firefox to make it work.

[15:16] <Adam1989> sorry dougie were you talking to me?
[15:16] <mobi-sheep> burno: Try toggling that.
[15:16] <mbeierl> gemilang: to what purpose is the format?
[15:16] <gemilang> mbeierl, just want to clean it up
[15:17] <legend2440> DougieRichardson: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/intel-graphics-performance-guide-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html
[15:17] <mbeierl> gemilang: what file system type?  Do you have the hard drive currently accessible in Ubuntu?
[15:17] <mobi-sheep> burno: Toggle off "Insert number of messages in your X property" and try now.  If that does not work, well, nevermind then.  It's a bug.
[15:17] <burno>  mobi-sheep: i can't toggle it, when i'm noch in the viewport, where the program is
[15:17] <DougieRichardson> usr13: thanks for your help, I think we're looking at different issues though - I need to go, I'll check in with the Xorg team later.  Not sure if this is an Xorg or an init issue to be honest
[15:18] <Adam1989> Thanks Dougie, i owe you one. Cheers from Australia :)
[15:18] <mdm> rhineheart_m: what do you mean ping a domain, ICMP only works on IP addresses.
[15:18] <Justcop>  I am having a problem with my sound. It only seems to be able to work with one program at a time. When I have a music program open youtube videos have no sound.

[15:24] <Nanaki> hey does anyone know about kiba being available on a 64 bit version?
[15:25] <Nanaki> of jaunty
[15:25] <mobi-sheep> mattalexx: I think that's small price to pay if you need to highlight $ <and variable word> although.
[15:25] <tunnuz> Uff ... still the partitioner hangs on 33%. Same file of the CD is corrupted if I perform the disk test ... !! Sounds impossible.
[15:25] <usr13> gemilang: sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/hdb1  # But make sure hdb1 is the correct drive/partition
[15:25] <Justcop> I am having a problem with my sound. It only seems to be able to work with one program at a time. When I have a music program open youtube videos have no sound. I have to close the music prgram and reboot firefox to make it work. Sometimes I have the reverse problem, there is no sound in the music program.

[15:31] <GreyGhost> Justcop, you dnt pay us .. we choose who to help when we can help
[15:31] <maveas> But I think it's a problem with it's SA / bad blocks.
[15:31] <mbeierl> Supra_993: which type of eeepc do you have?
[15:31] <Husaini> you need to select the images first in your drive

[15:31] <usr13> Justcop: Some of have a problem with YOU.  In fact most of us by now I would suppose.
[15:31] <cabrey> Husaini, he wants to make an image *of* the drive, not write one to it
[15:31] <mobi-sheep> mattalexx: Heh.  Not that.  I mean halt your PHP coding to figure out how to manipulate gedit into highlight $variable.  Slacking off, ie.
[15:31] <mbeierl> Supra_993: sorry - is it a 900, 700, etc?  Do you know?
[15:32] <Supra_993> 1 min
[15:32] <Supra_993> no it 900
[15:32] <achillion> Does anyone else find that Unison is very slow when synchronizing to a network drive? I'm trying to see if there is a way to make it faster or if there's a problem on my end.

[15:33] <axxc> lo fellas, is there a way to make languages appear in Language Support dialogue ?
[15:33] <maveas> omg, I dont need to do a ubuntu usb flash drive
[15:33] <cabrey> Supra_993, the 900 should work out of the box, what version of ubuntu?
[15:33] <cabrey> maveas, I know what you are saying
[15:33] <Supra_993> 8.1
[15:33] <Supra_993> 8.10
[15:34] <cabrey> maveas, you can use dd to create an exact image of the drive
[15:34] <mbeierl> Supra_993: so you installed the Ubuntu netbook remix 9.04 or what version?
[15:34] <cabrey> Supra_993, use 9.04, everything works completely out of the box
[15:34] <maveas> yeah, but how? :S
[15:34] <mbeierl> Supra_993: oh - I see you installed standard Ubuntu 8.10?
[15:34] <Supra_993> yes
[15:34] <Husaini> maveas read the link
[15:34] <Supra_993> so where i get 9.04
[15:34] <Husaini> i already give for you
[15:34] <mbeierl> Supra_993: I agree with cabrey - 9.04 is really what you want.  It works much better on the Asus eeepc
[15:35] <cabrey> Husaini, you're not listening to what he wants
[15:35] <maveas> Husaini: What do I need that for?
[15:35] <maveas> I
[15:35] <Supra_993> where i get the 9.04

[15:35] <cabrey> maveas, it is a commandline tool if that doesn't bother you
[15:35] <mbeierl> Supra_993: http://ubuntu.com/
[15:35] <mobi-sheep> achillion: Syncing for first time will be slow as there are everything to be sync.  If that's not your case.
[15:36] <Dishtroyer> GreyGhost: the article referes to breezy badger 5.6. I am running Hardy 8.0
[15:36] <maveas> cabrey: that's fine with me
[15:36] <Supra_993> thank u alot
[15:36] <maveas> I just need to do this image for a friend. He really misses his harddrive :/
[15:36] <Husaini> you want to create iso images or what ?
[15:36] <usr13> axxc: System > Administration > Language Support
[15:36] <maveas> No Husaini ..
[15:36] <mbeierl> Supra_993: there is a banner near the right hand side that says "Ubuntu netbook remix"  That is better still for Asus eeepc
[15:36] <Supra_993> i will
[15:36] <GreyGhost> Dishtroyer, aww.. sory then i cant really help .. i dnt knw much bout that modem ..
[15:36] <axxc> no languages appear
[15:37] <cabrey> maveas, make sure that it isn't mounted. then do 'dd if=/dev/sd[x] of=/path/to/image/file.img' where [x] is your usb drive
[15:37] <achillion> mobi-sheep: It's always slow, even on subsequent synchronizations. I also notice that it stops at certain files (the same files every time) for long periods of time, while those files aren't any bigger than the rest
[15:37] <mobi-sheep> mattalexx: I just looked into this -- It's just me contributing to your bit --> http://www.andphp.com/2008/02/23/gedit-for-php-development-textmate-ish/
[15:37] <maveas> it isn't mounted? :S
[15:37] <muha> hey what kind of flash plugin should i use whit jautny amd64 bit
[15:37] <mobi-sheep> !flash | muha
[15:37] <cabrey> muha, adobe's 64 bit plugin
[15:37] <cabrey> !flash64
[15:37] <maveas> It cannot even mount.. the drive is broken..
[15:37] <rance> I have a ssh problem in ubuntu that the man page doesnt cover, and I need some help.  How do I alter the ssh implementation of ubuntu to allow the plain text hostnames to be included in a users known_hosts file.  I'm having an issue with keys being updated and on my centos boxes I can edit known_hosts with confidence because the plain text hostname is in the entry, but on ubuntu I cant tell which entries to change, so I end up blowing
[15:37] <rance>  away the whole file, how can I make the known_hosts entry in ubuntu show the plain text hostname?
[15:38] <mobi-sheep> Oh there are flash64 factorid.  Thanks cabrey. :)
[15:38] <Dishtroyer> GreyGhost: Thanks anyway
[15:38] <mbeierl> cabrey, muha: It is still a little buggy though...
[15:38] <GreyGhost> maveas, if its broken then its gonna be hard ..
[15:38] <cabrey> maveas, does it show up in /dev/?
[15:38] <usr13> maveas: If the drive is broken, you will need to get another working drive of the same type and take it appart (in a clean room) and switch platters.
[15:38] <muha> do you have a link
[15:38] <maveas> usr13: lol, not.
[15:39] <cabrey> !flash64 > muha
[15:39] <muha> i allready installed gnash but i cant get it working
[15:39] <maveas> How do I see if it's in dev?
[15:39] <cabrey> muha, uninstall gnash
[15:39] <maveas> I'm not that kind of a geek yet..
[15:39] <usr13> maveas: sudo fdisk -l
[15:39] <maveas> Yeah
[15:39] <maveas> There is something
[15:40] <maveas> Mind if I paste?
[15:40] <usr13> maveas: What do you see?
[15:40] <cabrey> maveas, ok which one is it? 'sdb' 'sdc' etc?
[15:40] <cabrey> maveas, use pastebin
[15:40] <usr13> maveas: use pastebin
[15:40] <maveas> ok
[15:40] <maveas> http://maveas.pastebin.com/m871d35f
[15:40] <Husaini> i think he need partimage, but its ok
[15:40] <Husaini> sorry :)
[15:41] <GreyGhost> maveas, wat do u mean by broken btw?
[15:41] <usr13> maveas: mount
[15:41] <maveas> It sounds like it cannot read it's SA
[15:41] <usr13> maveas: See if it is mounted.
[15:41] <maveas> Or there are some bad blocks..
[15:41] <cabrey> maveas, ok now we have the drive identifier. so 'dd if=/dev/sdc1 of=/path/to/image/here.img'
[15:41] <mattalexx> mobi-sheep, See that last post by "Matt Alexander" on the 6th? That's me.
[15:41] <mattalexx> :-)
[15:41] <maveas> Ups, sorry, sdc1 is another harddrive..
[15:41] <maveas> Lol, fail on me

[15:42] <maveas> No

[15:45] <cabrey> maveas, if the computer doesn't even recognize it we can't do anything
[15:45] <usr13> maveas: Is it /dev/sdc1  ?
[15:45] <maveas> usr13: no
[15:45] <GreyGhost> joeyeye, try glxinfo
[15:45] <mobi-sheep> How do I find the best (fast) server nearest to my connection?  I remember something about that in synaptic?
[15:45] <joeyeye> greyghost: ok will do - brb
[15:45] <usr13> cabrey: Yes, I told him, it it is broken, he will not be able to read it.
[15:45] <squircle> Maximo: try google, there are tons of websites that can send free texts, and you can probably set up a cURL script to do it automatically. also, that kind of question needs to go in #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:46] <HaliFax> morning
[15:46] <usr13> maveas: If the drive is truly broken, you will need to get another working drive of the same type and take it appart (in a clean room) and switch platters.
[15:46] <oenone1> can someone teach me how to install planeshift un jaunty
[15:46] <squircle> !hi | HaliFax
[15:46] <HaliFax> thnx

[15:46] <n-iCe> Why Ubuntu?
[15:46] <Maximo> squircle: thanks for you reply and soon joining #ubuntu-offtopic..
[15:46] <n-iCe> And why Debian?
[15:46] <maveas> No thanks
[15:46] <GreyGhost> maveas, u can try some data recovery tools ..
[15:46] <maveas> usr13: no thanks man
[15:47] <GreyGhost> bt it will have to mount somehow ..
[15:47] <Husaini> oh god
[15:47] <joeyeye> greyghost: what am I looking for ? I see this "OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 945G GEM 20090326 2009Q1 RC2 x86/MMX/SSE2" ...
[15:48] <maveas> I will
[15:48] <GreyGhost> joeyeye, wats uxa acceleration?
[15:48] <squircle> hi #ubuntu, i'm having a problem doing administrative actions through GNOME apps. For instance, whenever I go to add a user, the "Unlock" button is greyed out and the tooltip says "This action is not allowed". however, I can still gksudo <appname> and it'll work. any ideas?
[15:49] <joeyeye> greyghost: it's an Xorg option as far as I understand
[15:49] <Husaini> maveas can u tell , you want to create the image file in your drive ? right ?
[15:49] <mbeierl> squircle: you (or a group you belong to) are in the sudoers list?
[15:49] <ubuntunom> any reason why i cant increase the size of partition on gparted? i can shrink but cant utilise the empty space. im on live cd.
[15:49] <GreyGhost> joeyeye, hmm .. i dnt knw much .. but glxinfo gives u driver info and version ..
[15:49] <mbeierl> squircle: (just checking the basics... lemme know if you've already covered those)
[15:50] <squircle> mbeierl: yeah, I am, and I can use sudo fine in the terminal, as well as gksudo.
[15:50] <joeyeye> greyghost: glxinfo gives me the opengl version
[15:50] <maveas> Husaini: huh?
[15:50] <mdm> squircle: adding users is an administrative task, as such needs admin rights.  This is why it is greyed out for your normal user account and why it requires sudo access to run
[15:50] <GreyGhost> Husaini, he has a drive .. it is broken .. he wants to try and create an image of it to try and recover data
[15:50] <mbeierl> mdm: but would the "unlock" button not do that for him?
[15:50] <squircle> mdm: I know that, normally I just click on unlock and type in the administrative (root) password, but it has stopped becoming available for me to click
[15:50] <squircle> it used to work
[15:51] <Husaini> maveas , look and read your notice , good luck :)
[15:51] <GreyGhost> joeyeye, no .. driver too OpenGL version string vendor string etc
[15:51] <adac> Someone know a nice tutorial how to install and set up php5-cgi?
[15:51] <_whiff> Will Office 2007 work with Wine 1.1.24(under Interpid)
[15:51] <squircle> mbeierl and mdm: it works when I'm at the machine locally, but if I'm accessing it through VNC or NX, it won't work, but I can still just run gksudo
[15:51] <cabrey> !appdb | _whiff
[15:52] <_whiff> ubottu: You a bot?
[15:52] <mbeierl> squircle: oh.  Interesting.  That's something different as if somehow the remote control is not allowing you to do a sudo-like operation...
[15:52] <mobi-sheep> _whiff: You probably will face less issues if you were to run Windows XP in !virtualbox and install Office 2007 in it.
[15:52] <mdm> squircle: if you are already accessing it remotly just use adduser
[15:52] <_whiff> ubottu: Never mind, I got my answer.
[15:53] <chanux> I resolved my problem.
[15:53] <_whiff> mobi-sheep: I'll try wine first. I don't own a copy of XP.
[15:53] <Husaini> n-iCe if you said like , what are you using now ? as i know ubuntu and debian is easy to manage :)
[15:54] <Maximo> sfire: kind of like setting up a cURL script to answer automatically...
[15:54] <cabrey> _whiff, office 2007 works nicely under wine, have you checked the appdb?
[15:54] <squircle> mdm and mbeierl: it's not just adding users, it's any GNOME administration program that requires root access in the admin menu (users, services etc.), but ones that open directly as root (with gksudo) still pop up the box for the root password and work fine, it's just these magic unlock buttons have stopped working. if I knew the app names, i could just run gksudo system-config-users or whatever, but these magic buttons wont' work anymore.
[15:54] <imatech> are there any good open source ivr systems out there that run on linux?
[15:55] <mbeierl> squircle: yes, I see that, and it appears that there's been some bugs reported on it, for example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit/+bug/238799
[15:55] <mdm> imatech: asterisk
[15:55] <cabrey> squircle, did you uninstall policykit?
[15:55] <_whiff> cabrey: Not installable according to them.
[15:55] <mobi-sheep> squircle: users-admin ?
[15:55] <squircle> cabrey: no
[15:55] <neothecat> has anyone had a problem with UrbanTerror (and i assume others also), going from fullscreen to windowed for no reason, and then losing all keyboard/mouse control?
[15:55] <cabrey> _whiff, oh yes I ran into that problem also, I managed to get around it
[15:55] <squircle> mobi-sheep: it doesn't work if I go to run command -> gksudo system-config-users
[15:55] <cabrey> _whiff, it was a regression
[15:56] <squircle> cabrey: is policykit uninstallable?
[15:56] <mobi-sheep> squircle: I mean "gksudo users-admin"
[15:56] <cabrey> squircle, you might've accidentally uninstalled it :/
[15:56] <imatech> thanks mdm...i see YATE in my package manager..
[15:56] <_whiff> cabrey: So, its worth a try?
[15:56] <imatech> have you used asterisk?
[15:56] <cabrey> _whiff, yea there is a tutorial somewhere, let me find it
[15:56] <squircle> mobi-sheep: it still launches as a normal user (despite asking for my password) and the unlock button is still greyed out
[15:57] <_whiff> cabrey: http://samanathon.com/how-to-install-microsoft-office-2007-in-ubuntu-9-04/ <-- This one?
[15:57] <mbeierl> squircle: I think comment #10 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit/+bug/238799/comments/10) is pretty telling - it looks like VNC is treated as a remote login and if the remote logins are disallowed, then policykit won't auth you
[15:57] <mdm> imatech: I use trixbox, its has aserisk on it yes
[15:57] <legend2440> squircle: read post #6 and 7           http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7298159

[15:57] <mdm> !alien
[15:57] <squircle> cabrey and mobi-sheep and mbeierl and legend2440: I'm using NX, not VNC, would this still apply?
[15:57] <cabrey> _whiff, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1173365
[15:58] <cabrey> _whiff, or that one, but that one is a bit misleading
[15:59] <mbeierl> squircle: probably, but I don't use NX much so I can't confirm.
[15:59] <egw_> there is a cpanel for create users in linux and set their personal webpage in home?
[15:59] <usr13> schmidtm: Are you sure there is not a deb  version of it you can get?
[16:00] <_whiff> cabrey: "I suggest start with version 1.1.12 to 1.1.16" Nothing below 1.1.18 is available.
[16:00] <usr13> schmidtm: What are you wanting to install?
[16:00] <GreyGhost> egw_, a what to do what?
[16:00] <squircle> mbeierl: i checked and dpkg says policykit is installed, so I'll assume it's this bug. is there any way other than gksudo to launch the users admin panel as root?
[16:00] <egw_> i have a test host for personal webpages
[16:00] <egw_> but i want to be more autmatically
[16:00] <egw_> server/user
[16:01] <squircle> mbeierl: even sudo users-admin from a terminal doesn't work
[16:01] <mbeierl> squircle: you want the GTK graphical panel?
[16:01] <legend2440> !nvidia > me
[16:01] <ndy40> hey guys whats up
[16:01] <ndy40> a good day from me to u
[16:01] <ndy40> i got this issue guys
[16:02] <GreyGhost> !ask | ndy40
[16:02] <squircle> mbeierl: preferably, if not, i could just use the terminal and adduser blah blah blah
[16:02] <mobi-sheep> ndy40: We all got issues. :(
[16:02] <ndy40> i have finally been able to get ubuntu 8.04 to see my wireless hardware on my presario cq40
[16:02] <luckyone> are there any good web based media players? I want to be able to play music directly from my NAS via a web portal
[16:03] <ndy40> to get it to work i had to compile the driver supplied by broadcom
[16:03] <squircle> mbeierl: it says in the comments on this bug that *somehow* the policykit policy can be adjusted
[16:03] <ndy40> and now my wireless is up but
[16:03] <ndy40> when i restart system it no longer comes on
[16:03] <ndy40> i have to run modprobe wl.ko
[16:03] <spaceball1> My X/Display Manager/Window manager is broken somehow; I just installed xubuntu 9.04.  The desktop looked fine right after install.  I rebooted, and none of the widgets appear when X starts up.
[16:04] <ndy40> and i think from the readme file the mention this has a fault on 8.04
[16:04] <elcomprendo> pls help i messed with my source list and know i cannot update
[16:04] <elcomprendo> someone pls help
[16:04] <Halitech> luckyone, edna works as a web server - http://edna.sourceforge.net/
[16:04] <bastidrazor> ndy40, add wl to /etc/modules .. that will load wl module on boot
[16:04] <Halitech> elcomprendo, can you post the output of cat /etc/apt/sources.list - use pastebin
[16:05] <muha> i dont understand this bit "   1. Move the file in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins for a site-wide install (or in ~/.mozilla/plugins for a single-user install):" what file ??? check this site https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins?action=show&redirect=FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[16:05] <ndy40> so i humbly ask how do i rectify this and get my wireless comeon automatically
[16:06] <spaceball1> I was hoping ubuntu would be user friendly enough for a "normal" person to use. :-\
[16:06] <tavi> hy
[16:06] <mdm> spaceball1: it is
[16:06] <Gird3r> For getting wireless to work, I would agree with spaceball1. However, I can't demand it to work 100% flawless.
[16:07] <squircle> mbeierl: found it, it's sudo ck-launch-session polkit-gnome-authorization to change the policykit settings, thanks for all your help, i guess i'll stick around and answer some other, less technical questions ;)
[16:07] <spaceball1> mdm: Well, I haven't done anything "weird", and I'm pretty sure any normal person would give up at this point.  The system is unusable.
[16:07] <spaceball1> s/the/my/
[16:07] <mbeierl> squircle: YAY!  sorry - was away from keyboard for a moment there and just catching up
[16:07] <mdm> spaceball1: other then installing some packages with apt, all of my boxes were little more then boot the cd and install the os
[16:08] <krishmish> spaceball1: it is comfortable to learn
[16:08] <squircle> mbeierl: now i just have to figure out what policykit settings to change, and, for once, google isn't helping
[16:08] <mbeierl> so, anyone know if there is a way to get the distribution update to use a specific mirror?  The one that it's using for me right now is really slow
[16:08] <Gird3r> I have no big problems with ubuntu, except wireless.
[16:08] <Halitech> spaceball1, describe "unusable"
[16:08] <krishmish> spaceball1: its how u approach
[16:08] <Gird3r> :)
[16:08] <Mithran> spaceball1:  I had issues with 9.04 and xfce my self. Lost my panel and didn't want to give it back.
[16:08] <spaceball1> When I turn on the computer, all I see is a blue screen and a mouse pointer.
[16:08] <spaceball1> s/screen/background
[16:08] <Halitech> spaceball1, what video card?
[16:08] <mdm> spaceball1: granted I gave them all static ip addresses, and hand did the resolv.conf.  But other then that almost everything installed and ran fine.  That wich didnt run fine required me to configure it before it ran.  It was really that simple
[16:09] <spaceball1> Halitech, I'm not sure; I could open up the computer to find out, perhaps.
[16:09] <erUSUL_> mbeierl: System>Administration>software sources
[16:09] <Halitech> spaceball1, is anything installed on it right now?
[16:09] <usr13> Gird3r: Put the right wireless card in and it works fine.
[16:09] <spaceball1> Halitech: It displayed correctly on initial install, but after reboot, X never came back to life "correctly".
[16:09] <krishmish> spaceball1: if its the first time u are using ???
[16:09] <spaceball1> Halitech: No.
[16:09] <mbeierl> erUSUL_: that'll change it for the dist upgrade too?  Thanks!
[16:10] <spaceball1> krishmish: I've used linuxes a plenty personally, but yes, this is my first time on this system and with xubuntu 9.04 specifically.
[16:10] <Halitech> spaceball1, ok, sounds to me like you were using the livecd to install which worked okay but didn't set up properly on reboot
[16:10] <spaceball1> Halitech: No, it booted from the hard drive just fine the first time.
[16:10] <tavi> someone help me to setup a nokia 3600 slide camera
[16:10] <tavi> ?
[16:10] <tavi> to use it whit gyache?
[16:11] <spaceball1> Halitech: I did change the resolution from 1600x1200 to 1024x768.
[16:11] <krishmish> spaceball1: hmm...then im surprised however how u could find it difficult...cos i myself learnt it first thing first time before i could get to any linux distro
[16:11] <KlingaN> Hello! I just installed Linux Jaunty (9.04) and this is my first time trying Linux. I have been searching Google for an answer to the following but with no solution. -- Is there any way to get an external monitor through VGA to work with version 9.04? I have a HP Mini Note 2133.
[16:11] <krishmish> spaceball1: :-)
[16:11] <spaceball1> Halitech: (that is the only thing I did; 1600x1200 was hard to read on this screen).
[16:11] <GreyGhost> ndy40, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-942105.html
[16:11] <Gird3r> usr13: Well, it's not a internal card, it's an USB stick that I plugged in, I got the driver to work.  I tried with network manager but that one is.. well. Bleep beyond belief. So after searching i tried that network thingy, wich is way more friendly.
[16:12] <Halitech> spaceball1, might be the native driver didn't like the resolution, I would figure out what card it is and install the proper driver
[16:12] <Gird3r> But I still have not succseded in getting it to connect anywhere.
[16:12] <krishmish> KlingaN: isnt it like u wanna use it as a projection?
[16:12] <spaceball1> Halitech.  Hmm... any chance you know how to change the resolution to 1600x1200 in some xorg.conf file or something?
[16:13] <dakarn> /etc/X11/xorg.conf it should be
[16:13] <krishmish> spaceball1: dakarn is right
[16:13] <Halitech> spaceball1, Ubuntu does everything automagically so hard to edit things
[16:13] <GreyGhost> elcomprendo, wats the error?
[16:13] <krishmish> spaceball1: i had such an issue myself
[16:13] <spaceball1> I've looked there, and it had no resolution settings, AFAICT.  Hmm...
[16:13] <krishmish> spaceball1: i had to google for it
[16:13] <squircle> Halitech: i just found that out through playing with policykit: hard to edit default policy ;)
[16:14] <mdm> Gird3r: first off this is a hardware and driver issue, not a linux or ubu issue.  Secondly I would think that if you put gasoline in your diesel truck it will not work, no matter if gassoline trucks are more popular and for years you have put gassoline in your car and it "always" worked
[16:14] <KlingaN> Nobody who can help me in my matter?
[16:14] <dakarn> mmm there's a lot of people who use chopped up distros of ubuntu and they don't have all the pretty gnome packages for setting everything up via gui
[16:14] <mdm> Gird3r: I on the other hand plugged an ethernet cable into the rj45 socket and it works, without anything "special"
[16:14] <Halitech> squircle, I know they are doing it to make things easier for new users but when things don't work right, makes it hell to correct
[16:15] <Gird3r> I got the ndiswrapper to "wrap" the rt73 driver to my USB stick.
[16:15] <ubuntunom> im running ubuntu on this slightly older computer. would i see a significant speed increase if i change to xubuntu? possible to do without new clean install?
[16:15] <ScottG> How do I format a drive with ext3?
[16:15] <vigge_sWe> hai
[16:15] <achillion> ubuntunom: I've been running xubuntu and from personal experience I find it quite faster on my old laptop. you can apt-get xubuntu-desktop to have access to xfce from the login screen
[16:15] <dakarn> scottg: fdisk
[16:16] <vigge_sWe> CPU load averages 	1.16 (1 min), that is 1.16% CPU, right?
[16:16] <bastidrazor> !xfce ? ubuntunom
[16:16] <ScottG> dakarn: Ah that was the name. Ok ill read the man page
[16:16] <bastidrazor> !xfce | ubuntunom
[16:16] <Halitech> ubuntunom, possible but hard to say as the newer xubuntu isn't that light anymore ... if you want to check, open a terminal and do sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop, log out and then change the session to xfce and log back in
[16:16] <squircle> Halitech: exactly. it took me half an hour just to find out how to launch the policykit editor, of course, how would a new user know what policykit is, and why would they want to change it. oh well, i guess we'll have to adapt.
[16:16] <usr13> ScottG: fsck.ext3
[16:16] <Gird3r> Meh, after having been playing around with the terminal for 3 days and constanly trying commands I have been told to try, I might just continue using terminal.
[16:16] <erUSUL_> ScottG: use gparted
[16:16] <mdm> vigge_sWe: 116% and they are considerd extremly roguh estimates, and often quite wrong
[16:16] <ScottG> erUSUL_: Thats true I could. Whats wrong with fdisk though?
[16:16] <mdm> and ScottG you create filesystems with mkfs
[16:16] <dakarn> ubuntunom: xfce is faster than gnome, you could just install the new WM because technically xubuntu has all the same packages and libraries as ubuntu
[16:17] <erUSUL_> ScottG: fdisk only does partitions it can not format them
[16:17] <Halitech> squircle, I hope they change things back somewhat to allow manual configuration
[16:17] <krishmish> spaceball1: pls try this to reconfigure....sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[16:17] <ScottG> OK you guys have just thrown like 4 different commands at me. What do I use?
[16:17] <erUSUL_> ScottG: if you want to format via cli use mke2fs
[16:17] <Hylian> say i have a starnge question, im looking for something that will let me know if bad weather is coming on linux. there are a ton of apps for windows that will do it, will linux weatherbug or something do it?
[16:17] <usr13> ScottG: To format /dev/hdb1 in the ext3 filesystem do:  sudo fsck.ext3 /dev/hdb1
[16:17] <DirectorBonesy> So I installed the ATi propietary driver. It works decently; except that at proper resolution for my 23'' monitor, it's displaying it over approximately a 19'' area, leaving a black border around the edge of the display. What should I do to fix this?
[16:17] <ubuntunom> dakarn: so i'll just apt-get install xfce?
[16:18] <erUSUL_> ScottG: gparted is a gui program that make it easy to do all sorts of disk editing
[16:18] <bastidrazor> !xfce
[16:18] <usr13> ScottG: So chage hdb1 to suit your needs.
[16:18] <squircle> Halitech: Some super-intelligent person will come up with a custom-crafted ubuntu-based distro that allows custom configuration. Of course, I always install from the alternate CD, configure LVM, and install the base system first, edit all the config files, then install GNOME on top of that. it's my roundabout "expert" way of doing things :)
[16:18] <dakarn> ubuntunom: yes then select xfce4 as the xsession at login
[16:18] <erUSUL_> ScottG: if installed is aviable in system>Adminstration>Disk Editor
[16:18] <usr13> erUSUL_: He asked about formatting, not partitioning.
[16:18] <spaceball1> Oh, and also, if I do Ctrl-Alt-Del, the screen fades out.  If I do Ctrl-Alt-Del again, I see a "unlock screen" windows.  I can type in the window and unlock the screen.
[16:18] <grungi> hey
[16:18] <grungi> i'm just testing irc
[16:18] <Gird3r> mdm: The method to get the USB stick to connect to my wireless router is not a disscussion point. For me I don't care if I have have to type 10-20 or more commands into terminal, or go edit some files here and there. (Well the exception would be having to compile the drivers in c, wich is far beyond my knowledge, spare because I have only used ubuntu for like 4 days).
[16:18] <mdm> Hylian: tons, from plugins to web brosers to desktop apps, even in METARS
[16:18] <erUSUL_> ScottG: partition editor Disk Editor
[16:18] <ubuntunom> dakarn: can i make it permanent choice xfce? so it wont even ask it?
[16:19] <edbian> ubuntunom: It will ask if you want it as the default upon login.
[16:19] <mdm> Gird3r: it is becase you are using a hack to get windows drivers to work on a linux box
[16:19] <Halitech> squircle, I do close to the same but I use the debian net install cd
[16:19] <Hylian> there are tons of weather apps, thats true, but i have had a hard time finding one that will make an audible sound when bas weather apporaches..
[16:19] <ubuntunom> ty
[16:19] <legend2440> spaceball1: if your menus and panels are missing try opening terminal  and type   xfce4-panel
[16:19] <usr13> Gird3r: Look at the results of   fdisk -l   to see that you are looking at the right drive.
[16:19] <bastidrazor> !purekde | ubuntunom .. follow the uninstall instructions for gnome
[16:19] <usr13> ScottG: Look at the results of   fdisk -l   to see that you are looking at the right drive.
[16:19] <Hylian> *bad weather approaches lol
[16:19] <spaceball1> legend2440: Any idea how to open a terminal?
[16:20] <Gird3r> mdm: Output was: gird3r@gird3r-ftw:~$ fdisk -l
[16:20] <Gird3r> gird3r@gird3r-ftw:~$
[16:20] <Datz> Hello, when I "sudo apt-get update" I get "E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found."  I think this is preventing me from getting some latest packages with added repos in sources.list.  How can I fix this?
[16:20] <Gird3r> In short terms, got nothing.
[16:20] <legend2440> spaceball1: alt+f2
[16:20] <squircle> Datz: You're trying to install from a secure HTTP mirror, something your apt doesn't support, use an HTTP/FTP mirror instead
[16:20] <spaceball1> legend2440: Hmm... I don't think that worked for me.. I can try again...
[16:20] <Banane> join #ci
[16:20] <mdm> Gird3r: you have to do it as an admin user, i.e. use sudo
[16:20] <dakarn> bastidrazor: i wouldn't remove all the gnome packages without knowing what dependencies are needed
[16:21] <squircle> Halitech: that's especially useful, especially when you have a machine that won't boot off cds, i have to load the debian installer through floppies, and then apply the ubuntu bootstrapper. all i can afford are old pentium II servers
[16:21] <Gird3r> Okay.
[16:21] <Hylian> i guess what i want is a desktop app or something, not a webpage, i want it to make a sound if bad weather shows up
[16:21] <Datz> squircle:  So I should remove the repo with the https?
[16:21] <ScottG> usr13: Yea I know I am. I have mounted it. I have just unplugged it and plugged it in a few times so its all the way to e
[16:21] <Datz> from sources.list?
[16:21] <spaceball1> legend2440: (I mean Alt-F2 didn't seem to switch screens)
[16:21] <dakarn> !conky |hylian
[16:21] <squircle> Datz: yes
[16:21] <Datz> thanks
[16:21] <DirectorBonesy> So I installed the ATi propietary driver. It works decently; except that at proper resolution for my 23'' monitor, it's displaying it over approximately a 19'' area, leaving a black border around the edge of the display. What should I do to fix this? Running Ubuntu 9.04 with an ATi Radeon HD4830 on a Hannspree HF237 23'' HDMI monitor.
[16:21] <DirectorBonesy> I had this problem in Windows 7, too, but it was easily fixed by adjusting a setting that doesn't seem to be in Linux's version of Catalyst.
[16:21] <Hylian> !conky
[16:21] <dakarn> hylian: you should look at conky. you can make it display pretty much anything on your desktop
[16:21] <Hylian> so conky will do that.. thanx
[16:22] <dakarn> conky will do many things, try not to get overwhelmed =)
[16:22] <legend2440> spaceball1: alt+f2 should pop up a box called Run Application
[16:22] <spaceball1> legend2440: But thanks for the xfce4_panel tip.
[16:22] <usr13> ScottG: You should un-mount it before unplugging it.
[16:22] <bastidrazor> dakarn, installing xfce after the gnome uninstall will fix all required dependencies
[16:22] <spaceball1> legend2440: Ah!
[16:22] <Halitech> squircle, thankfully the systems I've been working on lately will boot from cd and after Debian 5 you can't use floppies to boot any longer as the kernel is just too big now
[16:22] <GreyGhost> Datz, or u can try installing apt-transport-https
[16:22] <squircle> Halitech: that's why it's such a pain ;)
[16:22] <Gird3r> mdm: I only got output about my hardrives. It shows nothing about any wireless or any network related.
[16:22] <Hylian> ok, but just to be anally clear, the only thing i need it to do is make a audible sound when bad weather apporaches, and it will do that, right? LOL
[16:22] <GreyGhost> Datz, *if u have to use that repo ..
[16:22] <spaceball1> legend2440: Thanks, that sounds like a good guess.  I'm going to have to leave irc to try this.  xfce4_panel was the command you recommend?    I dont know why you did it to begin with
[16:23] <squircle> y
[16:23] <Gird3r> Oh
[16:23] <Hylian> thanx all
[16:23] <dakarn> bastidrazor: doesn't networkmanager-gnome require the gnome dependencies?
[16:23] <Gird3r> COnfused myself.
[16:23] <Halitech> squircle, yeah, I'm hoping my little endeavor to revive old computers won't require me to resort to boot from floppies :(
[16:23] <Gird3r> :s
[16:23] <DirectorBonesy> Ah, there, the setting that isn't available to be changed freely is Display Scaling I believe; where it has an option to scale image to full panel size, or No Scaling. It's set to full panel size- why isn't it using the entire size of my display? Is Xorg somehow detecting it totally wrong?
[16:23] <ScottG> usr13: Hm, damn I might not have. I will remember that
[16:23] <legend2440> spaceball1: xfce4-panel   with no flags
[16:23] <Datz> GreyGhost: I don't remember what it was for anymore, update worked now.  :)
[16:23] <squircle> Halitech: hopefully the manufacturers will release a BIOS update to allow that from time to time, unlike dell :(
[16:24] <mdm> Gird3r: if you want to list the interface try ifconfig -a, assming the install worked it would have created one
[16:24] <spaceball1> legend2440: Thanks; I'll give that a go.  Thanks all; hopefully I'll sign in again with a working X...
[16:24] <ScottG> usr13: Is there any way I can make /dev label it as sdb. Kinda annoying its all the way to e
[16:24] <GreyGhost> Datz, i suggested just in case u wanted something from that https repo ..
[16:24] <GreyGhost> anyway ..bbl
[16:24] <Gird3r> mdm: I got information about my networking. Also about wlan0 and some wierd wlan0:avahi
[16:24] <Datz> squircle, GreyGhost: Now I have a new problem. What can I do to fix this?  http://pastebin.com/m53954f51
[16:25] <mdm> Gird3r: sorry aslso assuming it is a 802.11 usb stick and not a GMRS or EDGE thing
[16:25] <Halitech> squircle, hard to say but when you are dealing with old P2's I doubt it
[16:25] <Gird3r> mdm: Maybe I should provide more information. :p
[16:25] <Datz> squircle, GreyGhost: Install transmission?
[16:25] <squircle> Datz: GreyGhost is gone, and the problem is that you need a newer version of transmission-common
[16:26] <usr13> Datz: sudo apt-get -f install
[16:26] <Gird3r> mdm: Lsusb shows: Bus 004 Device 002: ID 148f:2573 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2501USB Wireless Adapter
[16:26] <DirectorBonesy> god i'm too used to arch but they did some annoying things to the repos aaa
[16:26] <squircle> Datz: try installing transmission-common, then transmission-cli
[16:26] <mdm> Gird3r: no the fact you said it was a wlan0 tells me what it is and that its using the avahi daemon
[16:26] <Datz> squircle: usr13: thanks
[16:26] <squircle> :)
[16:26] <ubuntunom> why is it that i cant increase my partition size in gparted live even though i have unallocated space?
[16:26]  * Datz has join/parts disabled on IRC  ;)
[16:27] <muha> thank you my flahsplaer works berfectly
[16:27] <Gird3r> mdm: THe avahi appeared when I was playing around with the ndiswrapper and adding rt73 drivers and trying to get the wireless to have that driver "wrapped" as the documents on ubuntu FAQ told me to do.
[16:27] <squircle> ubuntunom: what filesystem is it?
[16:27] <|Ryan> what's the command to download a torrent in command line?
[16:27] <edbian> ubuntunom: Are you mounted on the partition you're trying to resize?
[16:27] <Gird3r> mdm: Note it was windows drivers.
[16:27] <usr13> ubuntunom: Are there other partitons on either side? If so, you will need to move one.
[16:27] <squircle> edbian: it's gparted live, so it wouldn't be mounted by default
[16:28] <squircle> ubuntunom: I recommend PartedMagic anyways, a *lot* better than gparted live
[16:28] <mdm> Gird3r: avahi is a configuration daemon for it.  I would think it ran it when you wanted to use WPA for the network
[16:28] <edbian> ubuntunom: Is it part of an extended partition with a swap partitions (that is mounted possibly) ?
[16:28] <Datz> usr13: I don't know if that command fixed anything.  squircle: transmission-common is at the newest version.
[16:28] <ubuntunom> edbian: im on livecd. partition to resize is ext3. to its left is unallocatd space
[16:28] <Gird3r> mdm: Okay.
[16:28] <bastidrazor> |Ryan, if you use transmission you can have it monitor a directory for .torrent files.. you could wget the .torrent file and it would start.
[16:28] <OldEagle> Hello, I'd like to know how to check if ubuntu recognizes my GPU and uses the radeon drivers
[16:28] <usr13> squircle: Mounted?  You may be using wrong term...
[16:28] <spaceball1> legend: It worked!
[16:29] <shadeslayer> hi after i followed this : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208855 im stuck at find /boot/grub/stage1...it says no file found :(
[16:29] <OldEagle> (since X configures everything all by itself, xorg.conf won't help)
[16:29] <squircle> usr13: you can't resize a mounted filesystem, and gparted live boots off a CD, i'm using the right term
[16:29] <edbian> ubuntunom:  Is there corruption?  It gives no errors?  Is there a little orange emergency sign in the list of drives?
[16:29] <usr13> Datz: That means that transmission-common is already installed.
[16:29] <squircle> Datz: it's just a mismatch between dependencies... can you just not sudo aptitude install transmission?
[16:29] <legend2440> spaceball1: good but unfortunately next time you reboot they may disappear again
[16:29] <usr13> squircle: Oh yea.... ok.
[16:29] <firecrotch> I've never run a 64-bit version of Linux.  Does it run well? Any unique problems that I may run into from a 64-bit install?
[16:29] <spaceball1> Thanks!  I don't know why xfce4-panel did not start up, but typing it in a terminal brought it back up.
[16:29] <legend2440> spaceball1: good but unfortunately next time you reboot they may disappear again
[16:30] <ubuntunom> edbian: no all looks clean ...
[16:30] <Gird3r> mdm: I tried compiling the original Ralink drivers, it failed and I found no solution for getting the maker to work. I tried wrapping the rt73 driver supplied from the cd (copied to harddrive first) after playing around I finnaly got the driver to show up under wlan 0. Network manager loosed the connect to hidden essid or what it is called under the process.
[16:30] <spaceball1> legened2440: Right; I'll try to figure out what happened.  But at least I can switch windows now and use firefox, etc.
[16:30] <squircle> firecrotch: i'm using ubuntu 64-bit right now, and it's perfect, just make sure you have a 64-bit processor
[16:30] <usr13> squircle: But if he's using bparted from a Live CD, why would it mount the partitions?  That does not make any sense.
[16:30] <shadeslayer> firecrotch: you might find software which is only 32 bit
[16:30] <mdm> Gird3r: do you mean your AP isnt brodcasting its SID?
[16:30] <OldEagle> Hello, I'd like to know how to check if ubuntu recognizes my GPU and uses the radeon drivers. OS: Ultimate edition (ubuntu gutsy)
[16:30] <squircle> usr13: it wouldn't, but somebody else said the partitions might be mounted, but they wouldn't be because he/she is running them off a CD
[16:31] <squircle> running gparted*
[16:31] <shadeslayer> !ATI | OldEagle
[16:31] <shadeslayer> !hardware | OldEagle
[16:31] <Gird3r> mdm: I dunno. I don't know so much more. I'm pretty much clueless about how all this works.
[16:31] <bastidrazor> OldEagle, ultimate edition isn't suported here.. but you can do less /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if it loads radeon drivers
[16:32] <ubuntunom> there is a key sign on linux partition and swap ... does it mean its locked somehow? i am on live cd though
[16:32] <firecrotch> squircle: But 32 bit software can be run on the 64bit versions of Ubuntu, right?  And I'm sure I have a 64-bit processor... running Vista x64 on it right now :)
[16:32] <jpastore> are any of those 100 paper cuts to be addressed better dual monitor support? where can I send suggestions?
[16:32] <mdm> Gird3r: you have an AP, maybe an AP built into something else (like a router/firewall).  It can be set to NOT brodcast its id.  This is actualy one way of securing i.  But when you did it means nothing can find it to autoconfigure it.  So you have to do it by hand
[16:32] <shadeslayer> anyone who can help me with gfxboot ??
[16:33] <garuhhh> hi! my hibernate/suspend/resume works.. but i have to press Enter a couple of times.. any idea how to troubleshoot this problem?
[16:33] <dva5912> Anyone know how well ubuntu works on the Dell D600?
[16:33] <Darael> ubuntunom: Assuming you're in gparted, right-click the partition in question and choose "unmount" or "swapoff"
[16:33] <Gird3r> I used the network tool in system (had to install the tool) to assign an ESSID and turn DHCP on on wlan0.
[16:33] <dva5912> Im planning on getting that notebook but if wireless is no go im not getting it.
[16:33] <OldEagle> Thanks you guys. I've read all the articles inthe world on how to install video drivers to no luck. If Ultimate edition is not supported here, sorry for asking, but its Ubuntu after all with a bunch of eye candies and other stuff
[16:33] <squircle> firecrotch: as long as the 32-bit libraries are installed, yes. for instance, FirstClass comes in 32-bit only, i just had to install some 32-bit libraries (which should be installed by default, if not, there's just a few 32-bit library packages to be installed). i have tons of experience with 32-bit dependencies and libraries and stuff, so if you need any help, i'm usually around :)
[16:33] <ubuntunom> Darael: unmount is grayed out
[16:33] <usr13> dva5912: Works fine.
[16:33] <squircle> firecrotch: also see here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790
[16:34] <usr13> dva5912: Oh wait, dono about D600, mine is X600  sorry.
[16:34] <firecrotch> squircle: Much thanks :D
[16:34] <dva5912> :\
[16:34] <Gird3r>  mdm:The AP I tried to assign manually via terminal, but it did not change the AP line uner wlan0.
[16:34] <squircle> firecrotch: anytime :)
[16:34] <micah> ello
[16:34] <usr13> dva5912: But probably just fine...  dono what the difference is tho.
[16:34] <Darael> ubuntunom: hmm... that's odd... try swapoffing the swap first?  an extended partiton keeps the key icon until all its component partitions are unmounted or swapoffed as appropriate
[16:35] <Datz1> Hi, is there a way to jump to a safe mode GUI with a keyboard shortcut?
[16:35] <Gird3r> mdm: with the command sudo iwconfig wlan0 ap mac adress
[16:35] <dva5912> I dont ether usr13, but its linux.... It can be fixed :)  i hope
[16:35] <micah> this is hella tight never even knew about ubuntu before today
[16:35] <usr13> Datz1: Ctrl-Alt-F6 will take you to console mode.
[16:35] <mdm> Gird3r: I would think you had to turn on DHCP because you are not usuing static IPs, a common situation.
[16:36] <micah> is it true you cant get virsuses on ubuntu?
[16:36] <mdm> Gird3r: that sounds correct.  Did it now work?
[16:36] <dva5912> not the big ones no

[16:36] <Hylian> hello again, i am afriad conky isnt gonna work for me. i need something thats gonna start at boot, be on the desktop or deskbar, and give me audible weather alerts, anyone with any ideas? does weatherbug's linux distro do that, because i cant find any options for it...??
[16:37] <legend2440> spaceball1: read third post from bottom by Billi this is how he got xfce-panel to start on boot    http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-415082.html
[16:37] <micah> how do you go to your regular windows operating system when this is installed?
[16:37] <mdm> micah: becase of how linux, well unix, in general runs applicaitons you can not get one to infect antoher (one of the aspects of a virus).  in fact its damn hard to get two programs to even talk to eachother (which is why they user things like semphores and sockets)
[16:37] <edbian> Hylian: You can make any program you want start at boot time (or log in)  Do you want me to explain how?
[16:37] <dva5912> WOuld the Del D600 be ok for me for internet (email, youtube, etc) and programming?
[16:37] <micah> yes please edbian
[16:38] <Hylian> i'm looking for something that is designed to hang around. not conky. although conky has some other uses..
[16:38] <mdm> Gird3r: it looks liek you havnt finsihed setting it up
[16:38] <edbian> micah:?  I was answering Hylian's question?
[16:38] <Gird3r> mdm: Okay.
[16:38] <shadeslayer> Hylian: i like superkaramba :)
[16:38] <Hylian> i have been looking on my own for 2 days. im starting to think i might have to use wine and a windows app
[16:39] <Darael> micah: If you want to reboot to windows, assuming you left it in place when you installed Ubuntu, you have an option at boot time.  You can even make it default if you like
[16:39] <edbian> Hylian: "Hang Around" ?  Conky will stay on the desktop until you log out.  What do you mean Hang Around??
[16:39] <shadeslayer> hahaha
[16:39] <Gird3r> mdm: So how do I fix the ESSID and AP? Since nethier ESSID or AP get's set if I use respective command in terminal.
[16:39] <Hylian> i downloaded superkaramaba, but i have been having a hard time finding a widget, because none of them that i have read list audible weather alerts as a possible option. in windows i have 3 options...
[16:39] <edbian> micah: Do you want help with something?  I'll be glad to help!
[16:39] <usr13> Gird3r: Log on to the router and change settings.
[16:40] <Hylian> edbian, i mean something that im not gonna accidentally close because it's listed in th taskbar below.
[16:40] <Hylian> so conky is not an option for me, but thanx for the suggestion
[16:40] <Gird3r> mdm: Well, I can only acces it from dads laptop since he is connected to the router. And it has Vista on it.
[16:40] <usr13> Gird3r: Change settings so that essid is brodcasted  and if the dhcp server is off, turn it on.
[16:40] <Gird3r> mdm: It's a dlink.
[16:40] <mdm> Gird3r: the easiest would be to wimply use network manager
[16:40] <Pici> Hylian: I beleive there are options you can set in Conky to have it not showup there
[16:41] <mdm> !wifi
[16:41] <edbian> Hylian: You can configure conky to do that.  It is ridiculously configurable which I admit is daunting but that makes it powerful.  I understand if you want to use another app but I think you should at least understand that conky is powerful enough to do what you have described so far.
[16:41] <bastidrazor> Gird3r, plug in to the router via ethernet to get the initial set up. then you're good
[16:41] <Hylian> im gonna be honest. i am looking for something relatively easy to set up. i want something thats gonna be install, choose possible sound, and enetr zipcode, tada, done.
[16:42] <Gird3r> mdm: I will take a look on the router and see if I find anything about essid.
[16:42] <edbian> Hylian: That's fine :)  Thank conky is not a good choice :)
[16:42] <edbian> Thank conky*
[16:42] <edbian> Than conky**
[16:42] <Hylian> if i had the know how then maybe, but i have to admit, the fact that conky looks like it's a terminal app doesnt fire my confidence.
[16:42] <edbian> micah: See my personal message??
[16:43] <Hylian> anyone know of a superkaramba widget that does this?
[16:44] <edbian> Hylian: So you want an app that can run a command on certain weather events.  Is this correct?
[16:44] <Hylian> he he i installed weatherbug, something i did not want to do, because it's adware. but it doesnt give me the option to have audible alerts, so i am thinking it doesnt have that option..
[16:44] <spaceball1> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-panel/+bug/53897 mentions the same issue I ran into.
[16:44] <Ahri> hi, when i install "unclutter" it seems to get auto-run with the args "-idle 1 -root" (which i don't want). how can i find out where it's being run from?
[16:44] <usr13> Hylian: Install something else.
[16:45] <Hylian> no, i just want an app that will see that thunderstorm or tornado headin my way and will make a beep or something, so i can get out of the way. lived through one very close pass of a tornado, don't want to do it again, LOL :)
[16:45] <pronoy> !chrome
[16:45] <Hylian> usr13, that
[16:45] <pronoy> is there a chrome variant for linux ?
[16:45] <dakarn> hylian: conky isn't a terminal app, but you have to edit the .conf manually
[16:45] <Hylian> usr13, that's a wonderfull idea, what?
[16:45] <usr13> Hylian: Weather Report
[16:46] <Frostshock> hi everyone
[16:46] <SAMER_> hi
[16:46] <petllama> herro
[16:46] <ubuntunom> Darael: said Could not deactivate Swap - Killed! Any ideas?
[16:46] <jsjohnsen>  I have a problem with the resolution on my external screen, and I need some help - anybody?
[16:46] <usr13> Hylian: Right click the pannel and choose Add to Panel and find Weather Report
[16:46] <Frostshock> i have some wierd issues with my mute button on my hp 2230s.. the physical mute button only works after i have put the computer in standbymode..
[16:46] <SAMER_> i have a broplem how to connect internet via ubuntu
[16:46] <firecrotch> jsjohnsen: what seems to be the issue?
[16:46] <boopiedoo> anybody here who uses adobe air app tweetdeck in ubuntu? i have a question?
[16:46] <monty_hall> How do I disable the login bongo sound in Ubuntu 9?
[16:46] <Hylian> ok, but i am looking for something more than a weather report. if that's all i wanted, i would never have even come here, there are web pages for that. i want an app that will alert me of bad weather, will weather report do that?
[16:47] <Frostshock> monty_hall: its under settings->sound
[16:47] <Pici> monty_hall: System>Preferences>sound  I believe there is a second tab for system sounds
[16:47] <Darael> ubuntunom: have a look in the system monitor and see if it's using the swap space.
[16:47] <Hylian> i am using weather report now. nice app.
[16:47] <boopiedoo> does anybody here use the adobe air application tweetdeck on linux? why is it asking me for my root password and then keyring password?
[16:47] <ubuntunom> Darael: u reckon i dont have enough memory to deactivate swap?
[16:48] <Darael> ubuntunom: I dunno, but it's worth checking
[16:48] <Hylian> but, unless im mistaken, it doesnt alert me to bad weather...
[16:48] <legend2440> spaceball1: just curious why you don't just use Gnome instead?
[16:48] <jsjohnsen> firecrotch: I have a IBM R50e, connected to a samsung LCD. I can not get the resolution higher than the resolution of my laptop (1024x768).
[16:48] <Frostshock> anyone?
[16:49] <usr13> Hylian: Open the blinds.
[16:49] <mquin> 26
[16:49] <ubuntunom> Darael: 29% percent usage ... i wonder if i could kill enough programs for it not to use swap?
[16:49] <spaceball1> legend2440: Because I didn't know any better at the time; I was seeking a light-weight easy-to-use distro.  This system is circa 2002.
[16:49] <usr13> Hylian: My PC won't cook my breakfast for me. :(
[16:50] <jsjohnsen> firecrotch: When I do different things only an area corresponding to 1024x768 pixels is active (unless I use 1024x768 then the entire scrreen is active)
[16:50] <Darael> ubuntunom: if you've got used swap and there's anything open you can close, try it.  You could also remember the disk device name (/dev/something), close gparted and run "sudo swapoff devicefile" in a terminal where "devicefile" is the identifier given by gparted
[16:50] <Hylian> usr13, have you read what i have written? i want audible alerts... audible..
[16:50] <del_diablo> Anybody know a  "light" music player?
[16:50] <usr13> Hylian: No, did not see that.
[16:50] <spaceball1> legend2440: I may indeed switch the window manager to gnome at this point, though.
[16:50] <legend2440> spaceball1: ok wel if you wanted to try Gnome you can follow instructions on this page for removing xubuntu and installing Gnome   http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[16:50] <edbian> del_diablo: Graphical or CLI ??
[16:50] <monty_hall> I went under sys->sound and nothing called "login" or similar.  I played all sounds - no bongo.  Actually I have sounds disabled.
[16:51] <spaceball1> legend2440: Thanks again.
[16:51] <jsjohnsen> del_diablo: try Audacious
[16:51] <del_diablo> edbian, so long it supports running in the systray
[16:51] <del_diablo> edbian, and is not MPD
[16:51] <ubuntunom> Darael:i'll try killing it through terminal
[16:51] <edbian> del_diablo: What do you mean by "running in the system tray" ?  Minimize to the tray and keep playing?
[16:51] <del_diablo> edbian: that it runs in the tray, in some way
[16:52] <hiptobecubic> The ubuntu uses grub2 correct?

[16:52] <edbian> del_diablo: Try banshee

[16:53] <tonyf12> For some reason, my laptop is unable to perform DNS lookups on releases.mozilla.org or chat.freenode.net (or other servers that point to freenode) while using Ubuntu. Windows is able, as is everything else on my network. Any ideas, or even ways to fix it?
[16:53] <kapil> del_diablo: what's wrong with mpd?
[16:53] <bastidrazor> hiptobecubic, my default install of 9.04 uses grub not grub2
[16:53] <Mike_lifeguard> Anyone here familiar with Banshee? I don't see a 'next' button to skip to the next track. That's fairly basic, so I assume it's there and I'm just hallucinating... right?
[16:53] <del_diablo> kapil: It requires a server, unless somebody here got a unknown hack for it
[16:53] <tonyf12> atm, I'm connected directly to holmes.freenode.net because chat.freenode.net doesn't work.
[16:53] <edbian> del_diablo: Totem?
[16:53] <ville__> anybody know what the deadline for getting new package to Karmic universe is?
[16:53] <kapil> you can use ario (graphical player) with mpd
[16:54] <Darael> ubuntunom: you can tell it not to use swap with "sudo sysctl vm.swappiness=0", if that's any help
[16:54] <del_diablo> edbian: No tray support, and too bloat......... its a movie player on the top of that
[16:54] <Pici> ville__: See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicReleaseSchedule and if that doesn't answer, try #ubuntu-motu
[16:54] <edbian> del_diablo: sudo apt-get install mplayer and then just mplayer <filename.mp3>

[16:55] <edbian> del_diablo: There is an app called "trayit" I think.  Lets you make a tray icon for any program.  You'll have to search synaptic for the exact name.  That will let you try whatever you choose.

[16:58] <tophu> in jaunty's native ncv server is there a way to make it auto accept incoming connection? like if I set a password don't make it prompt on the local machine for permission to let the remote connection in
[16:58] <DirectorBonesy> In Windows, the Control Center app had a slider for this. I can't seem to find one in the Linux version (argh)
[16:58] <usr13> DirectorBonesy: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[16:58] <trippssss> ah I'm reading where 2.6 kernels don't use memory_cs anymore
[16:59] <edbian> tophu: Under System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop

[17:00] <edbian> ??
[17:00] <tophu> lol I found it thank you

[17:00] <Hylian> ok, i guess then i have another question, if i manage to get one of those windoze progs to work via wine, then how would i have linux start it at boot up
[17:01] <Hylian> and thanx for your patience
[17:01] <usr13> ubuntu has changed to uutu

[17:01] <Hylian> thanx dude
[17:01] <ubuntunom> Darael: unfortunately doesnt work. i think i gotta del all linux partitions and make a new clean install ... crap!
[17:01] <edbian> Start Up Applications*
[17:01] <Hylian> cool
[17:02] <Darael> ubuntunom: I'm sure you won't need to do that
[17:02] <usr13> Hylian: System > Preferneces > Sessions
[17:02] <trippssss> what is the command to find what packages contain a file again?
[17:02] <micah> fuck
[17:02] <edbian> ubuntunom: I have never had to reinstall and I've screwed things up faaaarrr worse
[17:02] <Husaini> heh
[17:02] <usr13> !language | micah
[17:02] <Husaini> hi micah
[17:02] <edbian> micah: Calm down.  PM me again
[17:02] <Husaini> what your problem ?
[17:02] <ubuntunom> Darael: ok ... i'll try killing those processes a bit more
[17:03] <Darael> ubuntunom: make a note of your swap partition, and make sure to close gparted
[17:03] <Machtin> how to watch my connections?
[17:03] <Machtin> tcp/udp?
[17:03] <usr13> Machtin: tcpdump
[17:03] <Husaini> Machtin : i think u need monitoring tools
[17:04] <DirectorBonesy> usr13: That didn't help my problem.
[17:05] <cypr1nus> how can I give internet access to eth1 (static ip) on my server?
[17:05] <DirectorBonesy> There is no xorg.conf and that is causing me a headache trying to tell the graphics card my display is about 4'' bigger than it thinks it is /o\
[17:06] <Gird3r> mdm: Last bit of info I can think off:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/202226/
[17:06] <ubuntunom> Darael: it just doesnt do it :(
[17:06] <Halitech> DirectorBonesy, yes there is but its mostly ignored
[17:06] <mdm> Gird3r: is there some reason you dont use network-manager?
[17:06] <medo> hi
[17:06] <DirectorBonesy> Halitech: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf after running aticonfig --initial doesn't bring up anything in nano.
[17:06] <kai> hallo
[17:07] <kai> some one here
[17:07] <Darael> ubuntunom: hmm...  this is more than a little odd... but you don't need to delete all your Linux partitions, just the swap one
[17:07] <DirectorBonesy> no
[17:07] <Gird3r> Yes, when I leftclick it says: Wireless network: Device is not handled.
[17:07] <Halitech> DirectorBonesy, strange, mine does
[17:07] <Gird3r> However, I get only one selection.  Where do I configure the size of the screen, blargh.
[17:08] <Darael> ubuntunom: if you can, otherwise you'll need a system that doesn't use swap at all
[17:08] <kai> some one knows how to setup a server
[17:08] <mdm> Gird3r: then try iwlist wlan0  ap, what does it say?
[17:09] <legend2440> DirectorBonesy: do you have controls on the monitor itself to resze the screen. thats what i had to do. i had a 1 inch border around mine until i resized it
[17:09] <kai> some one knows how to setup a server
[17:09] <usr13> cypr1nus: What do you need to do?
[17:09] <kai> some one knows how to setup a server
[17:09] <DirectorBonesy> legend2440: I don't think so, let me check.
[17:09] <Halitech> DirectorBonesy, when I installed the ATI driver I didn't have to set anything
[17:09] <Machtin> usr13: thanks :)
[17:09] <kai> some one knows how to setup a server
[17:09] <Gird3r> mdm: It says: wlan0     Interface doesn't have a list of Peers/Access-Points
[17:09] <Halitech> kai yes
[17:09] <mbeierl> kai: someone knows how to repeat themselves?
[17:09] <usr13> kai: Sure, what is your question.
[17:09] <kai> i will serve webspace
[17:09] <mdm> Gird3r: doesiwlist wlan0 scan tell you anything?
[17:09] <Halitech> kai, you're a borg?
[17:10] <usr13> apache?
[17:10] <kai> and user can sinup and get free space
[17:10] <kai> apache is cool
[17:10] <del_diablo> well.............. potamus came pretty close, lashing it into tray would however make it unable to play of. It also lacked a way to autostart its music, making it eve more useless :/
[17:10] <DirectorBonesy> legend2440: No, I don't.
[17:10] <kai> how can i make user alow to singn up
[17:10] <DirectorBonesy> Halitech: I had this problem on Windows 7, too. For some reason it really does not want to believe this monitor- which has a properly detected model, mind you, HF237- is actually 23''.
[17:11] <mdm> kai: yes
[17:11] <legend2440> DirectorBonesy: yeah mines an old fashioned crt
[17:11] <DirectorBonesy> The border on my screen is about 4'' horizontal and 2'' vertical, this is not fun. ;_;
[17:11] <Gird3r> mdm: wlan0     No scan results
[17:11] <usr13> Machtin: np
[17:11] <Halitech> DirectorBonesy, here's mine ... http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/202231/  I have an X1300 with a 21inch crt dell monitor
[17:11] <kai> user can see a side on the server and sing up and get free space
[17:11] <mdm> Gird3r: do you know the mac address of the AP?
[17:12] <kai> how can it be
[17:12] <legend2440> DirectorBonesy: you dont have the ati catalyst control center?
[17:12] <mdm> kai: yes
[17:12] <SAMER_> i ahve one question i want one usb modem work with ubuntu and windowes
[17:12] <newbee> bant compile v4lvd getting errors while make
[17:12] <DirectorBonesy> Halitech: Part of it could be the HD4830 not liking linux, but I need shader model 3.
[17:12] <newbee> cant
[17:12] <SAMER_> any one have usb modem name
[17:12] <usr13> kai: Something like vdeck?
[17:12] <boerzel> Hi there! Does anybody know a photocopier software for Ubuntu/Kubuntu?
[17:12] <kai> i understand how to setup apache a litel bit
[17:12] <DirectorBonesy> legend2440: I do, but there's no option to manually set oversampling which is what I need to fix it /o\
[17:12] <Halitech> DirectorBonesy, good chance  you are right
[17:12] <kai> what is vdeck
[17:12] <del_diablo> so any suggestions for music players, that are "light"?
[17:12] <hans100> hello, I have a problem with a shared library. I created a symlink in /usr/lib/, but after running ldconfig, the link does not appear in ldconfig -p
[17:13] <Gird3r> Yes.
[17:13] <GreyGhost> DirectorBonesy, can i see ur xorg.conf?
[17:13] <DirectorBonesy> GreyGhost: Not much to see, let me pastebin it. One sec.
[17:13] <Gird3r> mdm: Yes, I know the mac adress, however, It gives me two: Wireless one and WAN one.
[17:13] <usr13> kai: see vdeck.com
[17:13] <newbee> knows anyone video loopback device driver for v4l2
[17:13] <pronoy> del_diablo: light? try xmms and banshee
[17:13] <hans100> but I can see the correct symlink in /usr/lib
[17:13] <legend2440> DirectorBonesy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=7129
[17:14] <pronoy> del_diablo: really depends upon ur defination of light
[17:14] <trippssss> what is the package for pcmcia-modules for ibex?
[17:14] <mdm> Gird3r: try iwconfig wlan0 <ap sid> <wireless port on ap mac>
[17:14] <ubuntunom> Darael: It actually says that Swap is active and that is the reason i cant increase the size ... im doing clean install. nothing major on this comp. thanks for your help though!
[17:14] <kai> some one used vdeck
[17:14] <kai> is it free ware
[17:15] <hans100> has no one an idea?
[17:15] <usr13> kai: What is your nataive language?
[17:15] <DirectorBonesy> GreyGhost: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/202241/
[17:15] <kai> german
[17:15] <Gird3r> mdm: How do I fins out ap sid and the port?
[17:15] <usr13> !german | kai
[17:15] <del_diablo> pronoy, uses very little resources. Do not use long time to start up. No not needed fuctions that can and will steal resources(ex: fetching album art)
[17:15] <del_diablo> pronoy: Banshee is MPD FFS <.< MPD = needs server. I need a music player, not a client to get music of a server!
[17:15] <kai> thanks
[17:16] <pronoy> del_diablo: how bout audacious or xmms
[17:16] <kai> some one is using vdeck
[17:16] <mdm> Gird3r: its the part of that router that is acting as an AP, I would think someone set it up at some time or its somehting generic like what a DSL provider sends you
[17:16] <hans100> hello, I have a problem with a shared library. I created a symlink in /usr/lib/, but after running ldconfig, the link does not appear in ldconfig -p, but I can see the correct symlink in /usr/lib
[17:17] <kapil> del_diablo: you have misunderstood the purpose of mpd. it is a music playing daemon. you can use different clients to select what to play.
[17:17] <edbian> kai: Say "Does anybody here use vdeck?"
[17:17] <del_diablo> pronoy: It still needs a server
[17:17] <Darael> trippssss: the stock modules packages, though you may need udev
[17:17] <GreyGhost> DirectorBonesy, wat card?
[17:17] <del_diablo> pronoy: unless you can get me a hack to get around that
[17:17] <trippssss> could someone help me properly mount my pcmcia memory card under ibex? pccardctl status displays the proper info but lsmod | grep pcmcia doesn't show memory_cs which I think I might ned
[17:17] <edbian> del_diablo: mplayer (mplayer is not mpd)
[17:17] <trippssss> Darael, ok i'll try that
[17:18] <pronoy> del_diablo: don't have that much time....if something comes up ...let you know
[17:18] <trippssss> Darael, udev is already installed
[17:18] <Gird3r> mdm: The only thing I find containing thw word sid is the routers original ESSID, wich is dlink.
[17:18] <micah> ed you still on here?
[17:18] <edbian> yep
[17:18] <mbeierl> kai: vdeck is commercial web hosting software for companies who do web hosting for $$$
[17:18] <Gird3r> mdm: About port, I dunno. Haven't found anything about it.
[17:19] <DirectorBonesy> GreyGhost: ATi Radeon HD4830
[17:19] <mdm> Gird3r:  then it is posible it is setup as dlink, have you ever used that AP before?
[17:19] <kai> is some free ware
[17:19] <DirectorBonesy> legend2440: That's too old- that command doesn't even work anymore. aticonfig does, but the only oversampling option I see is for TVs.
[17:19] <GreyGhost> DirectorBonesy, wat does fglrxinfo say?
[17:20] <DirectorBonesy> overscanning, rather.
[17:20] <DirectorBonesy> Let me check.
[17:20] <Gird3r> mdm: dlink I tried with network manager and the network tool, as ESSID.
[17:20] <kai> is some free ware similar
[17:20] <DirectorBonesy> GreyGhost: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/202243/
[17:21] <mdm> Gird3r: well you can keep guessing or you can look  ESSID is what you want
[17:21] <usr13> Gird3r: Connect via wired connection and log into the router and change the configurations to suit your needs.
[17:21] <GreyGhost> DirectorBonesy, thats good then .. so the problem is that u cant set a high resolution ? wat res are u at atm?
[17:21] <usr13> Gird3r: What is the model number of your router?
[17:21] <mbeierl> I tried changing my local apt sources list, but then upon doing an intrepid -> jaunty dist upgrade, it is still fetching from far away, slow mirrors.  Anyone know how to force dist-upgrade to use local mirrors?
[17:21] <pronoy> !torrent > pronoy
[17:22] <pronoy> is there a torrent client which has a daemon icon ?
[17:22] <gmachine_24> mbeierl: I think the updates only use *faraway* mirrors if the local ones are busy/down.
[17:22] <trippssss> mbeierl, where do you purchase/download vdeck?
[17:22] <DirectorBonesy> GreyGhost: The problem is, at maximum resolution (1920x1080) it's giving me a 4'' wide black border on the side of the screen and a 2'' wide one on the bottom, and I can't fix it. In Win7, this was simple: activate overscanning. But I can't seem to DO that in Linux.
[17:22] <petllama>  how do i configure libjpeg to allow tiff2pdf to convert tif files with a jpeg in it? I have libjpeg installed, but when i try a convert i just get an error from tiffOPEn that it cannot open
[17:23] <danierie> hi i have problems with my teamspeak 2 codec
[17:23] <kai> is cpanel free
[17:23] <tonyf12> For some reason, my laptop is unable to perform DNS lookups on releases.mozilla.org or chat.freenode.net (or other servers that point to freenode) while using Ubuntu. Windows is able, as is everything else on my network. Any ideas, or even ways to fix it?
[17:23] <mbeierl> trippssss: I don't think regular public can.  I think it's an ISP/hosted partner thing: http://vdeck.com/contact.htm
[17:23] <gmachine_24> danierie: tell us what the problem is don't just say you have a problem
[17:24] <Gird3r> usr13: It's an Dlink DI-524
[17:24] <pronoy> is there a torrent client which has a notification icon that sits in the notification area and enables you to close the window of the client ?
[17:24] <trippssss> mbeierl, cool thanks

[17:24] <usr13> tonyf12: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[17:24] <gmachine_24> pronoy: they pretty much all do that
[17:24] <pronoy> gmachine_24: not transmission
[17:24] <danierie> ok my friends say and ive tested it with the local test mode that i sound horrible ive checked all codecs but none of them worked
[17:24] <mbeierl> kai: cpanel is not free http://www.cpanel.net/products/cpanelwhm/purchase-cpanel-products.html
[17:24] <gmachine_24> pronoy: I use transmission and it does that
[17:24] <danierie> i also tested with audacity
[17:25] <pronoy> gmachine_24: what ? how? by default ?
[17:25] <danierie> but theres no problem with the sound because it sounds nrmal
[17:25] <anodesni> pronoy, utorrent + wine
[17:25] <kai> found it see the video looks ok ,
[17:25] <Mike_lifeguard> pronoy: transmission does, I'm using it right now
[17:25] <kai> is ther some for free
[17:25] <gmachine_24> pronoy: well, not by default. after the window comes up and you select "ok" you can shrink the main window
[17:25] <mdm> Gird3r: can you get into the 524 via ethernet?
[17:26] <gmachine_24> there is no reason to use wine to run a torrent client
[17:26] <gmachine_24> pornoy: but you can try some of the others. azureus, bittorrent.
[17:26] <danierie> gmachine_24: can you help me possibly?
[17:26] <gmachine_24> danierie: do we know what your problem is? did I miss it?
[17:26] <kapil> kai: gforge?
[17:27] <pronoy> gmachine: pornoy ? :D   i don't get any window..i just add the torrent and then it sits around
[17:27] <tonyf12> usr13: Does that file take other hostnames? Or just IPs?
[17:27] <KlingaN> Is there really no way to connect an external monitor to my HP 2133 Mini Note (VIA Chrome drivers)? I am using openChrome-drivers but I can't find any workaround. I'm dependant on my external monitor.
[17:27] <newbee> hey, my cam will not work with flash 10 any ideas?
[17:27] <danierie> ok so i will write again in teamspeak 2 my soundinput is horrible i mean it sounds horrible
[17:28] <danierie> to others
[17:28] <gmachine_24> danierie: sorry. I just reread you original posts. I'm not familiar with teamspeak codec.
[17:29] <kai> cpanel looks very nice the video is good
[17:29] <danierie> ok thanks anyway
[17:29] <danierie> or is it any how :D

[17:29] <danierie> i will try to install it in my vb or with wine
[17:29] <gmachine_24> pronoy: when I select a torrent I want to download, and then click 'ok' when I am asked if I want to use transmission and I say ok, a window opens so I can see what files are included in the torrent, then I select 'ok' if I want to d/l them or cancel if not.
[17:30] <newbee> is the any webcam streaming solution for ubuntu?
[17:30] <hyperactivecrond> Here's the situation: i've got a 1TB external USB/Firewire/eSATA hd.  I got it because my brandnew macbook pro's hd took a shit.
[17:30] <pronoy> gmachine_24: actually i have the torrents on my desktop...so
[17:30] <usr13> Gird3r: OR: http://edmullen.net/manuals/dLink_di524_router_quick_install.pdf
[17:30] <hyperactivecrond> macs need GPT to boot from them
[17:30] <gmachine_24> pronoy: then there's a box showing me what torrents are being d/l or u/l if I'm seeding... and you can shrink that.
[17:31] <Hylian> still no go. too bad weather report doesnt do audible alert or i would be a happy camper... :(
[17:31] <gmachine_24> pronoy: you mean the small torrent files that you use to start the d/l, right?
[17:31] <Gird3r> usr13: Will take a look.
[17:31] <Gird3r> mdm: Thank for your help. Need to reconsider some things.
[17:31] <pronoy> gmachine_24: yeah
[17:31] <tavi> hy
[17:31] <gmachine_24> pronoy: ok, so what do you do to start a download then?
[17:31] <hyperactivecrond> is there any way to make an efi external hd boot on a legacy bios pc?
[17:31] <tavi> how ican put some videos on a nokia 3600 slide?
[17:32] <w-heat> hi all, is ext4 considered stable? are the data loss issues that I read about a while back resolved?
[17:32] <pronoy> gmachine_24: just open transmission and click the plus button and add the torrent for download
[17:32] <pronoy> gmachine_24: thats standard i guess
[17:32] <bhsx> does anyone know a way to use Virtualbox to boot a persistent usb install?  have a link or howto?
[17:33] <gmachine_24> pronoy: well, you can start the download automatically when you're at the torrent site but that's ok
[17:33] <gmachine_24> pronoy: it's the same process really
[17:33] <pronoy> gmachine_24: never mind i think it won't hurt if it sits around anyways..i'll chose a different desktop...enough of asthetics
[17:33] <RkyRaccoon> does anyone know how to install Alice on ubuntu 9.04?
[17:33] <gmachine_24> pronoy: so when you click + to add the files to download then you have another window listing the download, how many peers are connected, etc?
[17:33] <axisys> !ldap
[17:33] <Hylian> if i am not mistaken, you can set virtualbox's "cmos" or "bios" to load a usb device as it would a floppy. then it would just boot off your usb thumb drive
[17:33] <w-heat> !ext4
[17:34] <snakeacid> hi all sorry that i ask i am new on linux and BT i use my eeepc 1000h is there acapi script aviable?

[17:34] <revilodraw> is it possible to change the temperature at which the fan cuts in?
[17:34] <gmachine_24> revilodraw: do you mean outside of changing the BIOS settings?
