[00:00] <Josdell> Can I delete all the other files associated with the older kernels?
[00:00] <Nathan406> but i just cant add windows to it
[00:00] <soundray> Josdell: Ubuntu keeps them around in case a newer one gives you trouble. Use the package manager to remove old ones -- hold on a sec
[00:00] <Nathan406> i wonder how
[00:00] <Zaber> hi
[00:00] <Xavura> My key isn't in the id_rsa format
[00:00] <Xavura> does that matter
[00:00] <Josdell> soundray: thanks
[00:00] <mgrant> Xavura: connection refused implies the ssh service isn't running or you're firewalled
[00:00] <soundray> ubina: you can install, then update -- or use a daily image from the link I gave you
[00:00] <v3trae> is there a command to have a program run at system boot? if memory serves it was rc-update on gentoo.
[00:00] <macca> hello, i would like to know if it's possible to load/install the ubuntu-studio kernel on an ubuntu 8.04 normal install
[00:01] <ubina> soundray thank you :)
[00:01] <Xavura> mgrant: I can SSH into other servers, kind of, well on my other host I didn't have to set up all this key crap, it just worked ssh user@root
[00:01] <soundray> Josdell: example: 'sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-2.6.24-16-generic'
[00:01] <unop> Xavura, connection refused could mean that the remote machine isn't accepting ssh connections -- by way of a firewall or the simple fact that a sshd server isn;t up and running
[00:01] <Josdell> soundray: okay thanks a lot
[00:01] <Xavura> mgrant: and I doubt the service is not running, the host is great and everything always works
[00:01] <Xavura> unop: It is, cPanel says so.
[00:01] <chubs_> nathan406: are you editing it as root?
[00:01] <unop> Xavura, have you considered the possibility that cpanel is not very reliable?
[00:01] <Xavura> It has a built-in way to generate keys for SSH in cPanel
[00:01] <Nathan406> yes
[00:01] <visik7> chubs_: it can't get the audio device
[00:02] <Xavura> Why would they have that if there was no SSHd
[00:02] <duane> sudo tasksel install lamp-server best method install lamp ?
[00:02] <hmuller> Have a guy with yahoo video problems, instead of playing movie gets code beginning with "CNTRLS = undefined, ID = undefined", any idea what's causing this?
[00:02] <unop> Xavura, do you have shell access to the remote machine?
[00:02] <Xavura> unop: shared hosting
[00:02] <Xavura> so err
[00:02] <chubs_> visik7: there might be a problem with colliding sound servers, are you using ubuntu 8.04?
[00:02] <Xavura> and isn't shell the same as SSH?
[00:02] <soundray> duane: it's as good as any other package-based method
[00:02] <Xavura> I'm new to all this
[00:02] <soundray> !lamp > duane
[00:02] <Nathan406> chubs_: yes
[00:02] <v3trae> Xavura: having shell access to the server and to your cpanel are two different things
[00:02] <Xavura> I have absolutely no idea.
[00:02] <Xavura> I just want to get SSH working
[00:03] <Xavura> been as though no-one can help me get FTP working
[00:03] <Nathan406> chubs_: but it can get it to work
[00:03] <duane> thanks
[00:03] <chubs_> nathan406: why can't you add windows? it's a text file
[00:03] <unop> Xavura, you could have shell access via a terminal server -- meaning you ssh into the terminal server and that patches you upto your machine via a serial console/cable
[00:03] <v3trae> Xavura: if ftp isn't working you should contact your hosting provider..
[00:03] <Xavura> v3trae: Ubuntu, not my host
[00:03] <clash> hallo! i have a small question: how can i see the details of an system upgrade, _afer_ syypatics made the changes?
[00:03] <Khisanth> Xavura: are you sure you are sure you are trying to log into the right server?
[00:03] <Nathan406> chubs_: i cant save
[00:03] <Xavura> v3trae: Ubuntu seems to create tens and tens of connections at once, and gets me disconnected after a while
[00:03] <Xavura> I then have to manually kill all the connections from cPanel before it works for another 10 minutes
[00:03] <macca> any ideas for theubuntu-studio kernel on a normal ubuntu installation? thanks
[00:04] <chubs_> nathan406: are you sure you're root if you can't save it? what sort of error comes up?
[00:04] <hawthoerne> does anyone know how to make the internet faster?
[00:04] <Xavura> No one can help me fix it, thus I need to get SSH working
[00:04] <unop> Xavura, what happens when you do something like this?  telnet hostname 22
[00:04] <Xavura> err
[00:04] <chubs_> in a command line
[00:04] <ter> netbeans runs strange on Hardy. It sees the classes, but claims them non-existent during comile. With both openjdk and sun.
[00:04] <Xavura> Connection refused.
[00:04] <soundray> clash: have a look inside /var/log/dist-upgrade
[00:04] <yoyoned> hawthoerne: the whole internet?
[00:04] <supertanker> Is it normal for my sound to be kind of tinny when I use Totem and FLAC files?
[00:04] <unop> Xavura, sshd is not running on the remote machine
[00:04] <amenado> ter-> are you sure the classpath is correct?
[00:05] <Xavura> Honestly?
[00:05] <v3trae> Xavura: i agree with unop
[00:05] <unop> Xavura, honestly
[00:05] <clash> soundray: thank you - thats what i need
[00:05] <Khisanth> well it could be running on a different port :)
[00:05] <hawthoerne> no just my connection isn't dling as fast as it should
[00:05] <v3trae> Xavura: you should get some sort of output on 22.
[00:05] <Xavura> Well what about this totally stupid FTP problem, with it cloning my connections and getting me disconnected?
[00:05] <v3trae> Xavura: should it be running
[00:05] <unop> Xavura, if sshd was running, telnet would have connected you up (somewhat)
[00:05] <Xavura> Ok, I'll contact my host
[00:05] <gordonjcp> Xavura: don't use ftp
[00:05] <Xavura> The FTP thing is a Ubuntu problem though
[00:05] <Xavura> Err, why?
[00:05] <Xavura> I kind of need to do work
[00:05] <gordonjcp> Xavura: the FTP thing is an FTP problem
[00:05] <Xavura> which kind of requires me to access my files
[00:05] <gordonjcp> FTP is dead
[00:05] <gordonjcp> let it be
[00:06] <Xavura> so what, it lets me download and edit my files
[00:06] <v3trae> is there a command to have a program run at system boot? if memory serves it was rc-update on gentoo. Can't seem to find out how to do it in ubuntu.
[00:06] <Shaba1> How can I stop ubuntu ns-applet from asking for the wep key and password every time I long on
[00:06] <Xavura> which I kind of NEED to do
[00:06] <chubs_> xavura: if you need to do work, just use gftp
[00:06] <gordonjcp> Xavura: use sftp
[00:06] <unop> v3trae, /etc/rc.local
[00:06] <Xavura> Yeah, I can use that for work
[00:06] <v3trae> unop: thank you
[00:06] <Xavura> but I am still trying to get this thing fixed
[00:06] <gordonjcp> Xavura: you only need your ssh port open for that
[00:06] <yoyoned> v3trae: add to /etc/rc.local
[00:06] <Xavura> as I prefer the other client so much
[00:06] <Nathan406> chubs_: i cant save
[00:06] <unop> v3trae, that is a shell script - not a command
[00:06] <soundray> v3trae: update-rc.d  -- or use System-Admin-Services
[00:06] <Xavura> the one that is used when you do Places > Connect to Server > FTP
[00:06] <C00re> ftp is best packet manager. ftw! <3 :D more beer! :P
[00:06] <chubs_> nathan406: but what does it say when you can't save?
[00:06] <clash> soundray: oh! nothing in /var/log/dist-upgrade
[00:06] <ter> amenada: I assume classpath is set up correctly to match platform. Both Hardy 6.0.1 and Sun 6.1.
[00:06] <C00re> package*
[00:06] <C00re> ftw
[00:07] <C00re> beer!
[00:07] <Nathan406> chubs_: i am not root
[00:07] <Xavura> sudo!?
[00:07] <Khisanth> Xavura: that can handle sftp as well
[00:07] <Shaba1> I tried the instructions at this address http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?s=f5de5634f4448d733a599c23e4bb0257&p=2776815&postcount=1
[00:07] <Shaba1> But is still ask for it
[00:07] <chubs_> nathan406: well if it says you're not root, you're probably not root
[00:07] <Xavura> Khisanth: I know, it doesn't work though so what does it matter.
[00:07] <Nathan406> chubs_: how do i open it up from the terminal
[00:07] <Xavura> I don't know how such a simple client can have such a major flaw.
[00:07] <Shaba1> now network manager ask for the wep key
[00:07] <soundray> clash: I think you need sudo to read the files.
[00:08] <chubs_> nathan406: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[00:08] <Khisanth> Xavura: I have that connected to 4 remote host right now :)
[00:08] <unop> Xavura, what flaw are you talking about?
[00:08] <Nathan406> chubs_: i did that once and i was able to save
[00:08] <visik7> chubs_: something like tracktor studio or virtualdj ?
[00:08] <Shaba1> then another dialog come comes up asking for the keyring password
[00:08] <Xavura> Does no-one listen? I've gone over this problem 100 times in the last week
[00:08] <Xavura> It clones my connections
[00:08] <Xavura> I get disconnected after about 10-30 minutes
[00:08] <chubs_> visik7: i don't have any experience with those, sorry. could be worth a try though
[00:08] <soundray> clash: there are also apt and installer directories under /var/log -- I'm not sure what the method is behind these
[00:08] <Xavura> I have to go into cPanel and manually kill all 20-40 connections before it works again
[00:08] <sdtr443w> Well I guess my box is upgraded now.  I guess it's time to see if xmplay can run with wine now
[00:08] <Xavura> It's very frustrating.
[00:09] <gordonjcp> Xavura: are you particularly keen to get r00ted?
[00:09] <Xavura> What's that?
[00:09] <soundray> Xavura: you manage to ask your questions here in a way that annoys, rather than attracting help
[00:09] <gordonjcp> cpanel and ftp are truly horrific hello.jpg-scale security holes
[00:09] <chubs_> xavura: try #linuxhelp
[00:09] <Xavura> Err, well I didn't mean to. It's kind of hard to know what someone truly means via text-based communication
[00:10] <Xavura> But if I'm so annoying, I'll stop asking questions.
[00:10] <Xavura> Or you could just /ignore me, it's there for a reason.
[00:10] <soundray> Xavura: yes, it is. Still, I find that other people find ways to ask their questions more effectively.
[00:10] <j_> The xterm display : Please re-run this program as the super user.       << What to do ?
[00:11] <Xavura> soundray: Maybe I am not so good with words.
[00:11] <Nathan406> chubs_: the gedit is giving problems
[00:11] <X|Away> GEdit is awesome, that had to be said
[00:11] <unop> j_, is this as a result of a command you just ran?
[00:11] <Nathan406> Ok!
[00:12] <supertanker> Xubuntu is making my sound seem kind of tinny
[00:12] <RxDx> what router is better? DLINK or LINKSYS?
[00:12] <supertanker> Is this a common problem?
[00:12] <sdtr443w> Holy cow wine worked with xmplay.  I guess next up I'll see if 8.04 works with my video card any better but it's a sealed deal right there. :)
[00:12] <soundray> RxDx: this is not a good place to ask that
[00:12] <supertanker> I just installed Xubuntu this morning
[00:12] <clash> soundray: ok - i found it in /var/log/apt/term.log
[00:12] <unop> RxDx, not an ubuntu question :)
[00:12] <chubs_> nathan406: what sort of problems?
[00:12] <gordonjcp> X|Away: seriously, be really careful running ftp, and really careful running cpanel
[00:12] <RxDx> sorry
[00:12] <Khisanth> RxDx: ASUS :)
[00:13] <gordonjcp> X|Away: they have been the primary cause of big problems that I've had to clear up in the past
[00:13] <soundray> RxDx: try #ubuntu-offtopic or ##hardware
[00:13] <Nathan406> chubs_:cannot open display:
[00:13] <Nathan406> Run 'gedit --help' to see a full list of available command line options.
[00:13] <hawthoerne> can someone help me, my connection isn't as fast as it should be
[00:13] <unop> Nathan406, are you trying to run gedit as root (via sudo) ?
[00:14] <chubs_> yes he is
[00:14] <soundray> RxDx: fwiw, I agree with Khisanth
[00:14] <Nathan406> chubs_: yes
[00:14] <Khisanth> hawthoerne: how are you determining that?
[00:14] <Nathan406> chubs_: good guest
[00:14] <unop> Nathan406, you need to launch gedit with gksudo
[00:14] <v3trae> I'm sorry, coming from Gentoo alot of this is foreign to me, if i wanted to have ssh start at system boot i'd just throw /etc/init.d/sshd start into /etc/rc.local ?
[00:14] <unop> Nathan406, gksu gedit /path/to/filename
[00:14] <hawthoerne> i use lunar as well and the dl rate is faster than it is on ubuntu Khisanth
[00:15] <soundray> v3trae: no
[00:15] <BigShpek> telecoms.bg
[00:15] <unop> v3trae, no, given that /etc/init.d/sshd exist -- all you need to do is use update-rc.d to enable sshd
[00:15] <Alps> v3trae: no
[00:15] <soundray> v3trae: if you installed openssh-server through package management, it's enabled automatically at boot
[00:15] <nickrud> v3trae, if you install openssh-server , it will automatically be linked properly into /etc/rc2.d/ and start up
[00:16] <Alps> v3trae: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[00:16] <v3trae> Mkay, it's been a while i dont remember how i installed it, but we'll find out when i reboot it in a fe wminutes ;)
[00:16] <Xavura> gordonjcp: Well my host has cPanel and I can't get SSH working even after following tutorials as no-one will help me out with it, so what else can I do?
[00:16] <Xavura> Run over to my server with a flash drive?
[00:16] <Khisanth> hawthoerne: no idea what lunar is but are you donwloading from the same server in both cases?
[00:16] <Xavura> It'd be ok if it wasn't in Florida!
[00:16] <nickrud> v3trae, sudo invoke-rc.d ssh restart or start
[00:16] <Alps> Xavura: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[00:16] <Nathan406> chubs_: i logout as root
[00:17] <hawthoerne> Khisanth: lunar is another linux distro, but, yes i am
[00:17] <Khisanth> that is not going to install sshd on his server :)
[00:17] <jeeves__> what causes no sound when playing a video on YouTube in Firefox?
[00:17] <v3trae> nickrud: just type that now?
[00:17] <j_> unop i try ./vmware-install.pl
[00:17] <nickrud> v3trae, yes
[00:17] <j_> unop and it display that
[00:17] <Khisanth> or her
[00:17] <Nathan406> chubs_: and run sudo
[00:17] <unop> j_, sudo perl ./vmware-install.pl
[00:17] <Nathan406> chubs_: its opened
[00:17] <jeeves__> Flannel, hey man, you still here?
[00:17] <Xavura> Alps: Err, it's installed by default.
[00:17] <chubs_> nathann406: you don't need to logout with sudo, but i'm glad it's opened
[00:17] <Xavura> Alps: "I can't get it working" tends to ensue that it is installed, but isn't working...
[00:17] <soundray> Xavura: no, it isn't
[00:18] <Xavura> So how come ssh root@someip works
[00:18] <v3trae> Rebooting the machine, keep your fingers crossed ;) Thanks for the informatino gus
[00:18] <nickrud> Xavura, no, the server isn't installed by default. The client is
[00:18] <unop> Xavura, maybe cpanel has a way to restart the sshd daemon on the machine -- if not, your only hope is to contact the administrator of the machine
[00:18] <jeeves__> no sound from YouTube, Anyone?
[00:18] <Xavura> Ah, you're talking about the remote machine? Well that makes sense now...
[00:18] <unop> nickrud, he's working on a shared-host/server
[00:18] <Alps> Xavura: contact host
[00:18] <chubs_> jeeves__: stop your music
[00:18] <chubs_> sound server problems, bleh
[00:18] <nickrud> unop, caught that in your last. Why I use dreamhost ;)
[00:19] <jeeves__> chubs_, there isn't anything running
[00:19] <Xavura> Jeeves: Turn your speakers on, that worked for me (honestly I spent 2 days working out why sound wouldn't work in Ubuntu)
[00:19] <dookles> okay, so I've got a live ubuntu iso running in virtualbox, if I how can I delete the windows parition while I'm on it?
[00:19] <gordonjcp> Xavura: bug your hosting company?
[00:19] <soundray> Xavura: see, this is what I meant above. The way you lecture people who are only trying to help (your response to Alps)
[00:19] <Xavura> Well I don't mean anything by it.
[00:19] <nickrud> dookles, no, because vmware is reliant on the windows install
[00:19] <unop> dookles, are you booted into windows ?
[00:19] <gordonjcp> Xavura: hassle them until they provide a reasonable service, perhaps?
[00:19] <dookles> I am
[00:19] <Xavura> I'm just saying, it's logical. It's like saying I can't work out how to eat my soup.
[00:19] <nickrud> dookles, then boot the cd hardwarely
[00:19] <Xavura> Then someone saying buy some soup
[00:20] <Xavura> If I can't work out how to eat it, I must have some.
[00:20] <Xavura> Logic my friend, I'm going to bug my host.
[00:20] <gordonjcp> Xavura: your food is problematic?
[00:20] <Xavura> gordonjcp: !!!
[00:20] <dookles> do what?
[00:20] <Alps> Xavura: or you could setup a Ubuntu LAMP server
[00:20] <unop> Xavura, pick up the phone, call your provider, and tell them about this problem -- best solution
[00:20] <Nathan406> i was able to save
[00:20] <Xavura> Alps: My ISP wouldn't be too happy about that.
[00:20] <Xavura> ...and my internet connection can't handle it.
[00:20] <Jack_Sparrow> hawthoerne SInce lunar is rpm based it could be that your network card has supported drivers from them and you are using generic with this debian distro
[00:20] <unop> Alps, he doesn;t have control over this machine
[00:20] <Nathan406> just hope wat i typed is correct
[00:20] <gordonjcp> Xavura: tough, if they're not doing the job for you, do it yourself.  They lose, you win.
[00:21] <nickrud> dookles, if you expect to install ubuntu, you'll either need to install on the hard drive, or install in wubi (a file in the windows drive)
[00:21] <Xavura> gordonjcp: What are you referring to exactly?
[00:21] <hawthoerne> maybe i'll do the install on lunar
[00:21] <gordonjcp> Xavura: the hosting company - if they can't provide a working service, go for a vps and run it yourself
[00:21] <soundray> Xavura: again, your wording is alienating
[00:21] <Xavura> gordonjcp: Expensive.
[00:21] <Claw6_> hello one question : is there any software way to change the FSB of my CPU ?
[00:21] <solexious> [Q] How can i stop what ever is bindingto port 443 so i can assign it to a different prog?
[00:21] <gordonjcp> Xavura: how much are you paying at the moment?
[00:22] <Xavura> soundray: Wording of any paragraph in particular?
[00:22] <nano_> via terminal, how can i determine my monitors horizontal/vertical refresh rate
[00:22] <unop> solexious, that's apache -- configure /etc/apache2/ports.conf perhaps
[00:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Claw6_ that is handled in your bios...
[00:22] <Xavura> gordonjcp: I have a VPS but I use it for my IRCd and it has no RAM hardly
[00:22] <solexious> unop, thank you
[00:22] <Claw6_> and if not?
[00:22] <gordonjcp> Xavura: 'cos VPSes start at about a fiver a month
[00:22] <orca> Hi?
[00:22] <legend2440> nano_: xrandr
[00:22] <Xavura> gordonjcp: So I can't use it for the website
[00:22] <soundray> Xavura: the whole response that was seemingly (though not explicitly) directed at me.
[00:22] <Claw6_> Jack_Sparrow:  and if not?
[00:22] <gordonjcp> Xavura: depends on how heavyweight your website is
[00:22] <Xavura> gordonjcp: inspIRCd plus atheme services and MozBot running on 128 MB
[00:22] <unop> let's move this VPS talk to #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:22] <unop> !ot
[00:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Claw6_ I dont know of any tools to change fsb in linux
[00:22] <Xavura> gordonjcp: Heavy enough.
[00:23] <Claw6> kk
[00:23] <kdje> help! does anybody know how to change the GTK theme from text mode?
[00:23] <gordonjcp> Xavura: my vps has 256M RAM available, and runs just fine
[00:23] <unop> gordonjcp, let's stay on topic here
[00:23] <Claw6_> thx anyway
[00:23] <gordonjcp> Xavura: except, of course, when spamassassin runs amok and beasts all the memory
[00:23] <Xavura> gordonjcp: Well I doubt it'll handle it, MozBot eats RAM, so does an IRCd and services
[00:23] <Xavura> ... anyway, they said it's off topic so, I'll shut up
[00:23] <gordonjcp> Xavura: oh, irc*d*
[00:23] <Xavura> Yes, daemon
[00:23] <solexious> unop,dont have it...
[00:24] <AMLNXUSR> Does anyone know why my cube is a flat 2d surface? ... i only have 2 side
[00:24] <soundray> !cube | AMLNXUSR
[00:24] <AMLNXUSR> thnx
[00:24] <noccy> Hi, I'm wondering if the issues with gparted and NTFS partitions have been fixed in 8.04?
[00:25] <unop> solexious, errm, maybe it isn't apache listening on that port then -- use netstat to find out what process has that port open.  netstat -antp | grep 443
[00:25] <soundray> noccy: what issues?
[00:25] <noccy> I've read a bit about how gparted (previously?) managed to wreck NTFS partitions and such?
[00:25] <noccy> Such as the problems listed here -> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/48229
[00:26] <solexious> unop, all i get is tcp6       0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:8656      <IP_ADDRESS>:49443    TIME_WAIT
[00:26] <kdje> anybody know what file determines which GTK theme is to be used for the current user?
[00:26] <noccy> I want to know if it's safe to have it resize my NTFS partition in order to install Ubuntu, or if i should expect it to trash it?
[00:26] <unop> solexious, it doesn't appear anything is bound to port 443
[00:26] <legend2440> is SAMBA or ftp the best way to set up a home network between Hardy and XP?
[00:26] <nickrud> noccy, I always suggest that vista users do the resize using the vista tool in disk management
[00:27] <unop> legend2440, both work
[00:27] <solexious> unop, how odd, thank you
[00:27] <supertanker> noccy: Procede with caution: resizing NTFS partitions CAN be dangerous. Always have backups
[00:27] <Alps> legend2440: Samba
[00:27] <supertanker> noccy: It *might* be safe using, say Partition Magic
[00:27] <noccy> nickrud: I'm using XP SP1, not Vista :)
[00:27] <supertanker> But not with Parted
[00:27] <soundray> noccy: I wasn't aware of this bug, but I've witnessed hundreds of successful resize based installs. Do have a backup though
[00:27] <supertanker> or Gparted or whatever it is
[00:27] <Red_Wraith> does anyone know where kde's system:/media is in the root filesystem?
[00:27] <unop> Red_Wraith, /media ??
[00:27] <nickrud> noccy, well, I trashed my disk with gparted, resizing an ntfs. Only owned the machine a couple hours, no loss
[00:27] <soundray> noccy: in my experience, gparted is safer than Partition Magic ( supertanker)
[00:27] <noccy> soundray: Apparently it had to do with parted relocating the start of the NTFS partition in some weirdo way or so
[00:27] <legend2440> Alps: unop:   ok thanks
[00:28] <darth> i used a gparted live-cd to resize my ntfs
[00:28] <darth> took ages though
[00:28] <supertanker> soundray: Huh
[00:28] <noccy> supertanker: Hm, okay. Yeah that was my first thought. But i googled it and people seem pretty cheerful about gparted, except for the ones that end up with totally mashed drives lol
[00:28] <supertanker> I lost my NTFS when I did that
[00:28] <darth> i resized a 47GB windows drive down to 20-something on a 750GB drive...
[00:28] <supertanker> I got a semi-totally mashed drive
[00:28] <darth> took around 30 hrs
[00:28] <noccy> Yeah, a friend did it with PQMagic a few days ago. Didn't end well
[00:29] <darth> for those 30 hrs my comp had to stay rock stable
[00:29] <trashguy> why no reinstall windows in 30 mins?
[00:29] <darth> if you clock your cpu consider running it @ spec when resizing
[00:29] <Josdell> I have an vmlinuz.old and initrd.img.old can I delete those
[00:29] <noccy> Mine is never off. Last reboot was due to a power outage :>
[00:30] <m-c> !enter
[00:30] <noccy> Okay, so the summary would be that gparted might work excellent, but take a while -- or that it simply ends up trashing the drive? And that PQMagic is probably to be prefered?
[00:31] <soundray> noccy: I don't know where you have 'take a while' from. I find it astoundingly fast, considering what it does
[00:31] <m-c> Josdell : no , you want to leave those for possible recovery (I speak from experience)
[00:31] <noccy> soundray: darth mentioned it took 30 hours for him
[00:31] <Infinito-> I have never had problem either with gparted or partition magic that wouldn't to be blamed on the physical health of the drive...
[00:31] <Infinito-> s/problem/problems
[00:31] <Josdell> m-c okay I'll take your word on it
[00:32] <noccy> The drive should be in good shape. I just don't trust NTFS the way I used to :)
[00:32] <Marial> pq no contestabas?
[00:32] <Xavura> Is NTFS like, some kind of special format Windows uses for HDDs?
[00:32] <m1th> anyone know why js.worthathousandwords.com comes up reading mail with firefox
[00:33] <darth> noccy use a gparted live-cd
[00:33] <soundray> Xavura: yes, it's a filesystem
[00:33] <cibariox> im having a recursive message on boot "Unexpected IRQ trap at vector 92" any ideas?
[00:33] <noccy> NTFS the filesystem used by XP and 2000, as opposed to FAT32 used by Win98 and the likes
[00:33] <m-c> Xavura: It is just a way to "format" the disk for data, like FAT from the old dos and win95 operating systems
[00:33] <kdje> help! is anybody there?
[00:33] <m-c> Xavura: Ubuntu defaults to EXT3, but it also supports many other "formats"
[00:33] <soundray> kdje: no, no one.
[00:34] <Josdell> does remastersys dist cdfs copy everything except my /home/joseph folder?
[00:34] <m1th> kdje: i'm here
[00:34] <noccy> darth: I actually think I'm gonna try PQMagic 8. I think i still have that CD laying around here
[00:34] <darth> i use murder-fs for my linux
[00:34] <Infinito-> we're here.
[00:34] <kdje> i'm trying as quick as I can to fix gtk so that i can actually do anything in x-windows
[00:34] <m-c> Josdell : What are you thinking of doing there?
[00:34] <kdje> i broke it trying to make a gtk theme
[00:35] <Josdell> m-c I'm going to take some stuff out of the ISo before it's made so It's less than 4GB
[00:35] <kdje> i thought if the theme failed to parse that it wouldn't cause x-windows to reset and display a blank screen
[00:35] <nixnoob> Hey I made a GUI with glade and I have two buttons but they do nothing, how do I get them to each run a bash script?
[00:35] <m-c> Josdell : That may be more advanced than what help you'll find available here...
[00:35] <kdje> so does anybody know where abouts to change the theme back to one that works?
[00:36] <Josdell> m-c k thanks
[00:36] <DefineKThyne> firefox booted up without my bookmarks and working back buttons and i can't save files. can someone help me?
[00:36] <Shaba1> how do I end a 'man' page in a terminal window
[00:36] <Shaba1> ??
[00:36] <darth> sounds like you already have ff running DefineKThyne (not that i know, i run opera)
[00:36] <noccy> Shaba1: Press Q
[00:36] <C00re> start with firefox.exe -ProfileManager perhaps
[00:36] <Shaba1> its at the end but not ending so I can get back to the termina
[00:36] <Infinito-> kdje, http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[00:36] <soundray> Shaba1: q
[00:37] <noccy> Shaba1: Use the key "Q" to quit it. The same key you use to exit the "less" tool
[00:37] <DefineKThyne> darth: thankfully i still have some browsing ability and ChatZilla plugin.
[00:37] <cibariox> guys really need my pc booting ... any ideas on the irq trap thing?...
[00:37] <kdje> Infinito-: how do i open that in a browser from irssi?
[00:37] <soundray> kdje: be careful with that advice
[00:38] <pan03943> how do i get snes9x to work from console using snes9x-1.43-linux-x86.tar.gz
[00:38] <soundray> kdje: it says login on a console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and run 'rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity'
[00:38] <Xavura> m-c: That was so random in off topic
[00:38] <Infinito-> sorry, won't be very readable
[00:39] <Infinito-> that will delete only configs..
[00:39] <soundray> kdje: I suggest you mv those directories to a backup directory instead
[00:39] <kdje> Infinito-: ahh, thanks
[00:39] <m-c> Xavura: I have to vent somewhere
[00:39] <kdje> i'll have a poke around i think
[00:39] <soundray> kdje: do you know about console switching?
[00:41] <kdje> ohh... it'll be in a gtkrc file somewhere...
[00:41] <maynards-girl> what application can i use for screen casting?
[00:41] <Odd-rationale> maynards-girl: try gtk-recordmydesktop
[00:41] <soundray> maynards-girl: or istanbul

[00:43] <MrWizeGuy1983> anyone know how to fix the vaio ubuntu headphone issue?
[00:44] <MrWizeGuy1983> anyone know how to fix the vaio ubuntu headphone issue? anyone at all?
[00:45] <soundray> MrWizeGuy1983: have you found the forums thread?
[00:45] <wooster> new install locks up now and then any reasons for this?
[00:45] <MrWizeGuy1983> yeah, didn't work soundray
[00:45] <tekryan> Does restarting ubuntu while it's updating do anything to the pc? Like it could with windoze
[00:45] <tekryan> ?
[00:45] <soundray> MrWizeGuy1983: and the intelhda factoid?
[00:45] <soundray> !intelhda | MrWizeGuy1983
[00:46] <RichW> tekryan, its not too bad.. its happened to me. it can recover.
[00:46] <MrWizeGuy1983> i'll give it a try soundray ty
[00:46] <tekryan> RichW: thanks
[00:46] <soundray> tekryan: yes, you can end up in a deadlock -- but you can usually recover with a combination of 'apt-get -f install' and 'dpkg --configure -a'
[00:46] <RichW> tekryan, it just removes the files i think and starts again
[00:46] <tekryan> thanks guys
[00:46] <MrWizeGuy1983> soundray, it's not on the problem list

[00:47] <MrWizeGuy1983> soundray, it works fine with my speakers and it plays through headphones but doesn't shut off the speakers when playing through headphones
[00:47] <kdje> soundray: i've already logged on at one of the consoles... i tried googling in lynx already, and copying the link but i kept typoing it somewhere
[00:47] <tekryan> it looks like the update manager came right up when I logged on so don't think it did anything bad
[00:47] <tekryan> I might be wrong there, but i'm continuing the updates
[00:48] <soundray> :D legend2440
[00:48] <legend2440> soundray: :D
[00:49] <soundray> MrWizeGuy1983: sorry, I can only advise to keep watching that thread and perhaps report a bug
[00:49] <failure> anybody know of a good 8 core motherboard?
[00:49] <failure> dual quad core
[00:49] <MrWizeGuy1983> soundray, a lot of people use sony vaio's on ubuntu, surely there's a fix i'm not finding?
[00:50] <BananaMon> hey guys...I can't access my windows partitions, I was wondering is someone could help me out. I could access them perfectly until I changed my monitor, and all a sudden, I get the message that I don't have enough permissions to access them.
[00:50] <soundray> tekryan: if it looks like it's continuing normally, it most probably is.
[00:50] <BananaMon> If I go under gksudo, or try to chmod them to 777, then it oddly enough says that those locations are not available
[00:50] <BananaMon> I checked my fstab, and nothing is changed, everything seems normal
[00:50] <BananaMon> any ideas on what I can do?
[00:51] <soundray> MrWizeGuy1983: you could also check tuxmobil.org to see whether people report the same problems (and perhaps solutions) with other Linux distributions

[00:58] <jkleh1> soundray: How do I tell?
[00:58] <m-c> !ntfs |BananaMon
[00:58] <soundray> jkleh1: it comes with a file /etc/default/dnsmasq -- perhaps you have to enable it in there.
[00:59] <soundray> jkleh1: otherwise I suggest you just reboot and see if it starts
[00:59] <tyler__> is there a way to get a hard drive map
[00:59] <scifiguy951> is there a skype channel?
[00:59] <SirBob1701> does the vim-full package include the vim filebrowser and omnicppcomplete?
[00:59] <soundray> jkleh1: also, have a look at /usr/share/doc/dnsmasq-base/README.Debian
[01:00] <soundray> jkleh1: (this is just from looking at the file list -- I don't have this package myself)
[01:00] <m-c> tyler__ Applications -> Accessories -> Disk Usage
[01:01] <tyler__> okay
[01:01] <soundray> tyler__: df -h    or   sudo fdisk -l    or ^^m-c
[01:03] <Onebeer> oh interesting... /sbin/fdisk -l doesn't do anything if you aren't root
[01:03] <Onebeer> I thought listing the partitions would work as non-root
[01:03] <Nikyo> Hello.. Using Ubuntu ver 8.04, using Samba Server Configuration Tool 1.2.50 that I installed from Synaptic package manager. I made a share on a 80GB Hard Drive using FAT32. I'm using FAT32 in case I need to put it into a Windows machine. I try to access the share on Windows XP and can not whether I use a user name and password I have no access, with "everyone" access, I can not access the share. Should I make the drive ext2 or 3 ?

[01:14] <amenado> anteaya-> you can install a hardy iso from hd, just prepare for a new partition to install the new one
[01:14] <legend2440> Shaba1:  hmmm i think Hardy  uses libpam-gnome-keyring  which is in synaptic and probably already installed
[01:14] <Shaba1> m-c?
[01:14] <Shaba1> or legend244
[01:14] <legend2440> Shaba1:  hmmm i think Hardy  uses libpam-gnome-keyring  which is in synaptic and probably already installed

[01:16] <haykuro> hello guys.. as of a recent kernel update, i experience random freezing of my computer.. upon further inspection i realized the programs weren't FROZEN, they were just sent immediatly into a Sleep state. after about 5 or 10 minutes any program i try to launch is immediatly sent into sleep
[01:16] <anteaya> amenado: or are you suggesting that I don't overwrite what I have running and just cut some more space and install hardy in the new space?
[01:16] <enemyevil> hello people ;)
[01:16] <cibariox> as i said i unplugged every piece of hardware ... replace my video card... and tried to boot from a live cd
[01:16] <haykuro> what can be causing this, how do i knock a program out of sleep, and if anyone knows how can i fix this
[01:16] <anteaya> amenado: I hadn't thought of that actually, that may be better

[01:17] <nohelphere> and I have tried to find the libraries
[01:17] <AaronMT> How come I just had to do 'apt-get update' and now I see 31 new updates for today (I had to do it manually and the prompt never came up earlier today?)
[01:17] <SeaPhor> nohelphere, ok, just thought i'd share whats working for me ;-)
[01:17] <nohelphere> ok
[01:18] <nohelphere> since I need the viewer
[01:18] <nohelphere> and that issue is something I have yet to fix
[01:18] <anteaya> amenado: okay, that would leave me triple booted but that actually sounds like it may be the safest bet.  Link for instruction on creating a new partition?

[01:20] <nohelphere> it installed

[01:20] <nohelphere> it just gives the same error
[01:20] <m-c> takamarou: if it is not too late to return the card, then I recommend the AMD graphic cards with open drivers
[01:21] <hawthoerne> does anyone know any interesting programs
[01:21] <takamarou> m-c: it gives me an error saying "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. " ----  after putting in that command, with sudo, and restarting X i get the same thing.
[01:21] <cirkit> sudo apt-get install xvnc4viewer
[01:21] <cirkit> that should get all dependencies
[01:21] <geom> hawthoerne, depends on what you into..
[01:21] <takamarou> m-c: not really an option.  this card is the cheapest I can get for PCI :)  I like cheap.
[01:21] <Shaba1> ok apt is removing libpam-keyring anyway
[01:21] <SeaPhor> nohelphere, ok, have you enabeled on the server System>Preferences>remote Desktop?
[01:21]  * burner_ wonders if ati is really all that much easier right now
[01:21] <tech0007> takamarou: did u try editing xorg.conf?
[01:21] <amenado> haykuro-> how did that happened? you configured something?
[01:21] <takamarou> tech0007: nope, I wouldn't know what to edit.
[01:21] <m-c> takamarou: sorry - I cannot help you any further - check the nvidia support forums
[01:21] <nohelphere> it is fine now
[01:22] <nohelphere> perfectly fine
[01:22] <hawthoerne> oh yeah does anyone know how to get JACK running
[01:22] <geom> takamarou, what seems to be the problem ?
[01:22] <tech0007> takamarou: i know nvidia support is better than ati
[01:22] <nohelphere> thx cirkit
[01:22] <cirkit> np
[01:22] <legend2440> Shaba1: have you read this how to?    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=192281
[01:22] <geom> tech0007, yeah thats correct
[01:22] <cibariox> tkamarou: u may want to try the nvidia drivers trough envy... check the forums for further details
[01:22] <takamarou> geom, I can't get the nvidia drivers to work for me e-GeForce FX 5200
[01:22] <m-c> tech0007: AMD bought ATI actually
[01:22] <m-c> !envy
[01:22] <haykuro> amenado: no, it started happening after the recent kernel update..
[01:22] <takamarou> cibariox, I've tried those as well.  no luck.
[01:22] <geom> takamarou, i got the same card and works fine
[01:22] <tech0007> takamarou: open terminal, type this 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak'
[01:22] <geom> takamarou, paste you xorg.conf for me
[01:22] <burner_> takamarou, you're the second person who has said that their nvidia broke with a recent kernel upgrade

[01:23]  * burner_ shrugs as his works
[01:23] <takamarou> wow.. lot's of people talking.. hold on a sec geom
[01:23] <pen> is there skins for totem?
[01:23] <m-c> takamarou: it will break every kernel release
[01:23] <amenado> haykuro-> can you look at your logs and see if you can find a hint on what triggers the hibernate mode?
[01:23] <burner_> pen, nope, you can change its look via your gtk theme, that's about it
[01:23] <takamarou> geom, what is the ubuntu paste link?
[01:23] <geom> takamarou, when you upgrade you have to repuild the kernel
[01:23] <burner_> pen, there are themes for vlc
[01:23] <geom> rapb.net/paste
[01:23] <WebcamWonder> !pastebin | takamarou
[01:24] <takamarou> geom, I just installed this card today.  I upgraded awhile ago
[01:24] <burner_> takamarou, and you used the "hardware drivers" application to install the nvidia binary drivers?
[01:24] <OEP> What are the odds of HW failure if the installer just can't format the file system? Great?
[01:24] <haykuro> amenado: dmesg spits out "APIC error on cpu1" and cpu0, after i start having the issue.. should i try booting with noapic ?
[01:24] <hawthoerne> how do i get jack control cirkit
[01:24] <will02> is there a way to access a fuppes media server over a vpn such as hamachi?
[01:24] <hawthoerne> ?
[01:24] <takamarou> burner_, I've tried that way and getting them directly from the website
[01:24] <cibariox> !irq trap
[01:24] <amenado> haykuro-> if it was me, id try it
[01:25] <tech0007> takamarou: paste your xorg.conf to paste.ubuntu.com
[01:25] <takamarou> geom, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24575/
[01:25] <burner_> takamarou, bummer... my 6300 works with the hardware drivers thing by simply checking the box
[01:25] <cirkit> hawthoerne: please install the following: apt-get install qjackctl
[01:25] <takamarou> tech0007, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24575/
[01:25] <amenado> haykuro-> also try  with  nolapic
[01:25] <burner_> takamarou, you could try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" at a terminal... that will generate a new /etc/X11/xorg.conf file for you
[01:25] <haykuro> alright thanks.. ill report back here after i try both
[01:26] <pen> burner_, bad news to me :p
[01:26] <takamarou> burner_, I've done that, but it doesn't ever get to the part where I get to choose my drivers.  as soon as I configure my keyboard and mouse settings it exits.
[01:26] <droberts> #turbogears
[01:26] <droberts> uh
[01:26] <cibariox> someone have any ideas on the irq trap issue?
[01:26] <Echonator> I need some help with my Hardy Heron rel. The system is running very slow already (i did install it less than 24h ago) so if someone can help me, send a PM. PS: I don't think it is the compiz app that makes it fuck this time
[01:26] <hawthoerne> ty cirkit
[01:26] <pen> burner_, because I have found awesome skin for vlc but I want it to be on totem
[01:26] <pen> burner_, vlc is buggy to me
[01:26] <amenado> !language | Echonator
[01:26] <tech0007> takamarou: backup xorg.conf first, 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak'
[01:26] <takamarou> tech0007, I've got it backed up.
[01:26] <pen> burner_, and it doesn't support format more than totem
[01:28] <bgcboyus> Anyone know why bind9 would give inode_permission error on start
[01:28] <burner_> pen, xine is skinnable
[01:28] <|NIKO|> -IT-CHAT
[01:28] <tech0007> takamarou: whats the output of 'lspci | grep VGA'
[01:28] <burner_> takamarou, then you restarted X after it made a new xorg.conf file for you by hitting "ctrl+alt+backspace"?
[01:28] <burner_> tech0007, he's got a 5300
[01:29] <tech0007> takamarou: burner_:  need the busid

[01:29] <takamarou> tech0007, sorry, do you want me to paste that?
[01:30] <pen> burner_, but there is no good skin for xine yet
[01:30] <burner_> pen, guess you're out of luck then
[01:30] <tech0007> takamarou: nope, 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[01:31] <takamarou> tech0007, what now?
[01:31] <tech0007> takamarou: change 'nvidia' to 'nv'
[01:31] <burner_> uhh
[01:31] <takamarou> tech0007, how do I save it in nano?
[01:32] <burner_> nvidia == the driver that can do cool things like 3d and compiz
[01:32] <burner_> takamarou, ctrl+x, y
[01:32] <Bidget> hey guys I was in yesterday trying to fix my problem of installing zsnes but I ran out of time, anyone around that could help me? for some reason when I try and install using the command sudo apt-get install zsnes it tells me that zsnes has no installation candidate
[01:32] <takamarou> tech0007, done.  restart X now?
[01:32] <tech0007> takamarou: yeah try it
[01:32] <takamarou> alright
[01:32] <RH> hi all
[01:33] <burner_> Bidget, using hardy?  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install zsnes
[01:33] <CZ-18> btw takamarou, ctr+o saves w/o exiting
[01:33] <CZ-18> just fyi
[01:33] <RH> I just installed Ubuntu server and installed ubuntu desktop in it.. now what would be the command for restart ?
[01:33] <Bidget> actually burner_ hold on, I installed a bunch of updates and I forgot to the do the required restart, I'll be back in a few minutes and hopefully I won't have a problem :)
[01:33] <burner_> Bidget, wait wait
[01:33] <CZ-18> RH - 'restart'
[01:33] <pen> RH, sudo reboot
[01:33] <takamarou> tech0007, no luck
[01:33] <Bidget> burner_, I actually used sudo apt-get install upgrade
[01:33] <CZ-18> RH, ignore that, thats my bash alias, sorry
[01:33] <burner_> Bidget, check your software sources via system->administration and make sure "universe" repositories are enabled
[01:34] <CZ-18> too used to it...
[01:34] <sivel> in Ubuntu what is the equivalent to chkconfig in redhat based OSes?
[01:34] <takamarou> tech0007, I have the drivers in the Hardware Drivers thing unchecked, because I was trying to do it through envy.  Should I recheck them and start over?
[01:34] <Bidget> burner_, k one sec
[01:34] <burner_> sivel, what's chkconfig do?
[01:34] <tech0007> takamarou: yes
[01:34] <Bidget> burner_, they are all enabled
[01:34] <sivel> it enables services in /etc/init.d to start on boot
[01:34] <RH> CZ-18 no problem :)
[01:34] <gwern> so, I have a problem. after a recent upgrade, it seems my keyboard is messed up. I began messing around with the keyboard layout dialog, and I have succeeded in locking myslef out
[01:34] <gwern> where in ~/ are the keyboard settings?
[01:35] <burner_> Bidget, in that case, you should have it in your repos... it's part of universe... if you can't get it via apt, you can download the .deb via http://packages.ubuntu.com
[01:35] <gwern> I am ssh'd, so I was thinking of removing them
[01:35] <sivel> burner_: for example "chkconfig apache2 on" would configure apache2 to start on boot
[01:35] <Bidget> burner_, well I downloaded a file from the zsnes website but it is a bz2 file any idea how to install it that way?
[01:35] <Bidget> burner_, it is .tar.bz2 if that helps any
[01:35] <takamarou> tech0007, rebooting, be back in a min.
[01:35] <Bidget> burner_, or would it just be better to get it from the package ubuntu website
[01:36] <CZ-18> Bidget, you have to compile that, its definitely doable, but prolly easier to just get it as a .deb
[01:36] <m-c> gwern: Maybe ask in #gnome
[01:36] <gwern> alright
[01:36] <Bidget> CZ-18, alright cool, that sounds easier hahahaha
[01:36] <burner_> Bidget, you don't have to compile... CZ-18 is a fudspreader ;)  though i agree that apt would be better
[01:37] <CZ-18> idk what specific package he was talking about, the vast majority of things in archives I've run into is source needing to be compiled
[01:37] <m-c> Why not use the version in the synaptic repository?
[01:37] <burner_> CZ-18, http://packages.ubuntu.com is just a web frontend to apt
[01:37] <MegaMan_EXE> HELP
[01:38] <burner_> CZ-18, deb packages are there
[01:38] <cibariox> ok im kind of losing big hardware here... does anyone know something about my problem?!?! T_T
[01:38] <m-c> You download bits from here and there and you will much up your system.
[01:38] <CZ-18> burner, i know, he said he had a .tar.bz2, he asked how he'd install it
[01:38] <yesitisjustme> will ubuntu work on a laptop with pentium 3   700mhz and 256mb ram?
[01:38] <burner_> CZ-18, oh, i missed that ;)
[01:38] <recon61> hi, getting really strange behaviour using the internet, it works fine sometimes, then other times it half works, I can browse web pages but cant login to hotmail. I get a connection interrupted error after about 3min, anyone got any ideas, I think my isp might be trying to manage my connection by blocking binary uploads
[01:38] <CZ-18> burner, np =)
[01:38] <stdin> yesitisjustme: yes
[01:38] <burner_> yesitisjustme, kind of... though xubuntu would probably be better suited
[01:39] <nano_> is it possible to even avoid loading of menu.lst altogether, and instead have direct loading of a specific selection
[01:39] <sivel> burner_: looks like update-rc.d is fairly equivalent to chkconfig
[01:39] <Bidule> SALUT
[01:39] <m-c> cibariox: you are getting a hardware error?  is this a hardware problem, maybe?
[01:39] <Shaba1> I wish I could do a copy and past between my window ultra vnc viewer and vino running on xubuntu
[01:39] <CZ-18> recon61: wireless or ethernet?
[01:39] <CZ-18> recon61: your wireless might just be dropping out
[01:39] <recon61> wireless
[01:39] <danbhfive> yesitisjustme: Just remove update-manager from startup
[01:39] <yesitisjustme> ok
[01:39] <Bidget> burner_, alright well Im just gonna do a restart and see if that helps at all
[01:39] <Bidule> bien ou quoi ?
[01:39] <cibariox> indeed it is... IRQ is directly binded to hardware...
[01:40] <stdin> nano_: just set the timeout to 0 or something
[01:40] <recon61> CZ-18: surely I should be able to log into hotmail though
[01:40] <takamarou> tech0007, still not working
[01:40] <nano_> stdin, what if i set the timer to -1?
[01:40] <danbhfive> yesitisjustme: and use the alternate install cd
[01:40] <CZ-18> recon61: thats true, if its specific site that has a problem, its most likely not the connection
[01:40] <m-c> cibariox: Alternatively, it is very possible that this version of Ubuntu will simply not work on your computer, due to reasons beyond anyone's control.
[01:40] <yesitisjustme> ok
[01:40] <tech0007> takamarou: can u check this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#Graphics_cards_and_displays
[01:41] <stdin> nano_: I'm not sure, it could mean infinity. (ie: displays the menu forever)
[01:41] <cibariox> but only ubuntu gives the error report... windows just hangs on boot... i have been working on ubuntu since gutsy and it broke lastnight
[01:41] <marc_> Will there be an upgrade to Pidgin soon, it wont let me connect to my ICQ account, it says the version is too old, I am using Ubuntu 8.04?  I apologize and will endure the flames just for an answer if this particular question has been asked before
[01:41] <m-c> My general recommendation, for everyone, is that if you enjoy using Ubuntu, then you should purchase your next computer from a retailer who can support the hardware - which runs the software and OS of your choice.
[01:41] <glitsj16> takamarou: have you checked your /var/log/Xorg.0.log yet for any relevant info ?
[01:41] <takamarou> glitsj16, no.
[01:41] <recon61>  CZ-18: i'll go get the router and try with a wired connecton before i go give my ips an ear full
[01:41] <Kromonos> hi
[01:42] <tech0007> takamarou: paste your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:42] <m-c> marc_ The protocols have been changed for ICQ that is shutting out 3rd party clients.  Use more open protocols, like Jabber
[01:42] <CZ-18> recon61: thats smart, its always good to try eliminating possible variables to narrow down the problem

[01:44] <Superraiden> Hi, i have a question about Ubuntu. Im soon going to switch to it, but im wondering if it runs all of the programs windows does, such as video games and photoshop and such? Thank you
[01:45] <takamarou> Superraiden, no it does not, but many windows programs can be run under wine (a windows emulator)
[01:45] <burner_> Superraiden, photoshop, yes... a lot of games, yes... you'll want to investigate a project called wine
[01:45] <burner_> !wine
[01:45] <marc_> Thanks to everyone on the ICQ fix
[01:45] <adante> hi, i have a list of wireless networks in the networkmanager, how can i make some of them NOT connect automatically?
[01:45] <Bidget> burner_, thanks :) do I just double click it?
[01:45] <burner_> adante, right click it, edit wireless networks

[01:45] <ceap80> hi all i'm having some problem with an inalambric keyboard, specifically with key repeat, when i keep a key pressed
[01:46] <Bidget> burner_, oh thats odd.... when I double click it it opens up and then says Status: ERROR: WRONG ARCHITECTURE 'i386'
[01:46] <burner_> Bidget, aww, you're a 64-bit user... sorry... no zsnes for you.. you'll have to compile it
[01:46] <ceap80> sometimes it doesn't repeat the key at all
[01:47] <takamarou> tech0007, you still there?
[01:47] <m-c> marc_: I still think you should consider the jabber protocols
[01:47] <tech0007> takamarou: did u change the second "Nvidia" in your xorg.conf?
[01:47] <danbhfive> Bidget: go 32bit!
[01:47] <Bidget> burner_, aw damnit hahaha. I never get to do things the easy way!
[01:47] <takamarou> tech0007, yes.
[01:47] <Bidget> danbhfive, but it just seems like such a waste of having a 64-bit cpu lol
[01:47] <burner_> Bidget, you'll have to compile it... try this forum post  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=588744&highlight=dfreer+zsnes
[01:47] <burner_> Bidget, or, as mentioned, install 32-bit ubuntu
[01:47] <marc_> m-c: I use them but not all my contancts, one in particular has the ability to do so
[01:47] <danbhfive> Bidget: I don't know, but I personally dont care to deal with all these issues.
[01:47] <m-c> burner_: The 64-bit of Ubuntu 8.04 comes with the 32-bit compatibility libraries pre-configured
[01:48] <Bidget> burner_, I'll try the compile option first haha
[01:48] <marc_> m-c:unless you can get jabber to relay to ICQ
[01:48] <Bidget> danbhfive, yeah I'm not much for problems but I seem to have a lot of them :(
[01:48] <m-c> marc_ Maybe so.  Good luck.
[01:48] <CZ-18> burner_ and Bidget : I'll try not to say 'i told you so'
[01:48] <marc_> m-c, thanks
[01:48] <atrus> !icqfix | atrus
[01:48] <CZ-18> Bidget: if you do compile, try using checkinstall, not 'make install'
[01:48] <Bidget> CZ-18, it's ok I get it. the harder way is always the fastest it seems
[01:49] <Bidget> CZ-18, well maybe compiling isnt harder I just dont have any experience with it
[01:49] <CZ-18> Bidget: checkinstall makes a .deb, so it integrates w/ dpkg and apt
[01:49] <CZ-18> Bidget: Its really not hard
[01:49] <Dante123> how do I see what my local ip address in on the lan
[01:49] <tech0007> takamarou: ok comment out everything related to ur integrated graphics
[01:50] <CZ-18> Bidget: just go to the directory with the source, and run './configure' 'make' 'sudo checkinstall'
[01:50] <danbhfive> Dante123: ifconfig
[01:50] <takamarou> tech0007, in xorg.conf?
[01:50] <Bidget> CZ-18, alright I'll let you know how it goes
[01:50] <Bidget> CZ-18, thanks :D
[01:50] <m-c> Dante123: System -> Admin -> Network
[01:50] <tech0007> takamarou: yes
[01:50] <CZ-18> Bidget: that last one is 'sudo checkinstall -D' actually
[01:50] <CZ-18> Bidget: only possible sticking point would be having dependencies installed
[01:50] <m-c> danbhfive: use the command line syntax sparingly  ;-)
[01:51] <glitsj16> tech0007: takamarou: you did notice the log indicates a problem with your BusID section ? (sorry to drop in your thread here)
[01:51] <tech0007> takamarou: then 'sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafebak'
[01:51]  * burner_ right clicks on network manager and "connection information" to find ip addresses
[01:51] <danbhfive> m-c: : )
[01:51] <Bidget> CZ-18, alright well if I dont have dependencies Im pretty sure I can use synaptic to install them I've done that before I think
[01:51] <whileimhere> My digital camera does short MOV files as well. Is there any program that will help me do small edits and such for linux?
[01:51] <tech0007> glitsj16: its ok, he has 2 graphics card, integrated and nvidia
[01:51] <takamarou> tech0007, I haven't looked at the log at all.  also, for commenting out the stuff for the integrated, that is just everything in Section "Device"  correct?
[01:52] <burner_> whileimhere, not really.. cinelerra and pitivi somewhat.  avidemux if you just want to change the format and cut things
[01:52] <CZ-18> Bidget: go for it. keep me updated =)
[01:52] <Dante123> it shows <IP_ADDRESS> using GUI....command line ifconfig shows 192.168.x.x
[01:52] <glitsj16> tech0007: okay
[01:52] <whileimhere> What I need to do mostly is turn them 90 degrees
[01:52] <Dante123> danbhfive m-c which is correct?
[01:52] <tech0007> takamarou: i presume ur monitor is now plugged into the nvidia card,not the integrated
[01:52] <Bidget> CZ-18, hm I ran ./configure and it seemed to do ok till the end where it said I need NASM, is that some type of protocol
[01:52] <takamarou> correct
[01:52] <recon69> CZ-18: you got it,now working with a wired connection, guess that saved blaming my ips. but  whats wrong with my wireless.
[01:53] <Dante123> danbhfive m-c  it shows <IP_ADDRESS> using GUI....command line ifconfig shows 192.168.x.x
[01:53] <takamarou> tech007, yeah.  I'm running in low graphics mode.. which is a pain in the butt
[01:53] <m-c> whileimhere: yes - there are several - cannot think of the name of my preferred one at the moment
[01:53] <takamarou> tech0007, and I made the backup.
[01:53] <tech0007> takamarou: yeah, X is picking its config from a failsafe
[01:53] <m-c> Dante123: There was probably more in the gui than that one number
[01:53] <WebcamWonder> whileimhere: mencoder with -vf rotate
[01:53] <takamarou> tech0007, so I should get rid of that failsafe?
[01:54] <tech0007> takamarou: try restarting X, no we just renamed it, 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
[01:54] <Xpistos> I have a very ambitious question!
[01:54] <Xpistos> where can I get info on coding a driver
[01:54] <__yy> Xpistos: that's very ambitious...
[01:54] <CZ-18> Bidget: 'sudo aptitude install nasm'
[01:54] <ceap80> hi all i'm having some problem with an inalambric keyboard, specifically with key repeat, when i keep a key pressed
[01:54] <m-c> Xpistos: For what hardware?
[01:54] <ceap80> sometimes it doesn't repeat the key at all
[01:55] <Xpistos> ZUNE
[01:55] <Bidget> CZ-18, alright I installed nasm, but now it's saying that I need a newer version of SDL, but if I do a search for sdl in synaptic it shows up with like a looot of things, not sure wihch of them I would need to update
[01:55] <CZ-18> recon69: well, now to narrow it down from there. Thats' the hard part =\
[01:55] <m-c> heh
[01:55] <Xpistos> I know
[01:55] <m-c> start small
[01:55] <Xpistos> I know, but this is out of necessity
[01:55] <CZ-18> Bidget: try libsdl1.2-all and libsdl1.2-dev?
[01:55] <hawthoerne> how do i put different themes on so the windows are different colors
[01:56] <m-c> xpistos: where are you going to get the technical specifications?
[01:56] <hanasaki> how do I setup vino vnc so that it is on gdm greeter instead of just hte uesr logged in
[01:56] <glitsj16> whileimhere: have you tried 'LiVES" for those video edits yet ? works great .. http://getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=lives
[01:56] <Xpistos> I have studied, and I mean studied, mp3 I I can't find one that does what I want
[01:56] <Bidget> CZ-18, k I'll look for em
[01:56] <Xpistos> I have no idea
[01:56] <m-c> me either
[01:56] <__yy> Xpistos: I don't think you quite realize what you're asking..
[01:56] <takamarou> tech0007, no luck.. and is that command you gave me the same thing as cntrl+alt+backspace?
[01:56] <Xpistos> That is trye
[01:56] <Xpistos> True
[01:56] <Xpistos> but it has to be possible
[01:56] <recon69> CZ-18: think I got some computer dummy with a virus living near me, the wireless traffic light on my router has never stopped blinking in the last year. think it must be interference
[01:57] <Xpistos> Not easy, but possible
[01:57] <m-c> just buy a mp3 player that is more compatible for ubuntu - much easier
[01:57] <Bidget> CZ-18, ok I selected libsdl-all but when I said mark for installation libsdl-alsa became highlighted in bright red, is that bad?
[01:57] <hawthoerne> somebody has to know how to change themes...
[01:57] <Xpistos> I would love to, but i can find one that has more than 50 gb, video and decent size for under 300
[01:57] <whileimhere> glitsj16: Great idea
[01:57] <CZ-18> Bidget: no, libsdl-all is a meta-package that just tells it to download /all/ the libsdl packages
[01:57] <tech0007> takamarou: its better than ctrl-alt-backspace, download the driver from nvidia http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
[01:57] <CZ-18> Bidget: hence the 'all' part =P
[01:57] <shira> The login screen (GDM) displays in the wrong resolution for my screen. It actually only displays the top-left part of the login, so the textbox where I enter my username and password is off-screen. Any suggestions?
[01:57] <adante> anybody use wpa_supplicant? how can i select the network?
[01:57] <WebcamWonder> hawthoerne: System -> Pref -> Appearence
[01:57] <takamarou> tech0007, I've already got it.
[01:57] <hawthoerne> ty
[01:57] <Bidget> CZ-18, ok just making sure. usually green is good, red is bad haha
[01:57] <[[thufir]]> I can't find the java JDBC-ODBC Bridge driver to install it
[01:58] <__yy> Xpistos: possible, yes, but generally not if you need to ask "how do I write a driver?"
[01:58] <glitsj16> hawthoerne: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy for all your theming questions
[01:58] <hanasaki> thuf its built into java
[01:58] <CZ-18> recon69:  that still doesn't explain why certain sites (ie, hotmail) wouldn't work when others do
[01:58] <hawthoerne> ty
[01:58] <tech0007> takamarou: ok, rename your xorg.conf to somethin else in /etc/X11 dir
[01:58] <Xpistos> I know I am trying trying to sky dive with a paper drink umbrella
[01:58] <Bidget> CZ-18, alright now it's telling me that a curses library is required to use the debugger...
[01:58] <tech0007> takamarou: we'll start w/ a fresh one
[01:58] <m-c> shira: your X configurations have the default set incorrectly, I bet.  have you checked the settings in the System -> Admin -> Screen Resolutions ?
[01:58] <Xpistos> but what why not
[01:59] <takamarou> tech0007, done.
[01:59] <[[thufir]]> thanks
[01:59] <m-c> Xpistos: discussions should be held in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:59] <__yy> Xpistos: if you really want to try... device specifications for the hardware you're using would be a good place to start
[01:59] <Bidget> CZ-18, I'm looking through the synaptic and I notice there is something called lib32ncurses5 but it's already installed, not sure if thats what I need though
[01:59] <__yy> Xpistos: you could also grab the linux kernel source
[01:59] <tech0007> takamarou: ctrl-alt-f1, then 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop'
[01:59] <SeaPhor> tech0007, have you had him look at blaclisted yet? (that was the problem with a friend last night)
[01:59] <shira> m-c: just making sure, you mean System -> Prefs -> Screen Resolutions? Yes, it is correct there, though "Detect Displays" does not correctly detect my display. I have to manually set it.
[02:00] <__yy> Xpistos: there are many drivers there you could look at
[02:00] <CZ-18> Bidget: do you have any idea what programming language its in?
[02:00] <Bidget> CZ-18, hmmm
[02:00] <Xpistos> thanks
[02:00] <takamarou> tech0007, ehh, what do I do then?  I'm not gonna be able to see what you say.
[02:00] <{KHI}DellGuy_> can someone please rell me what the delete file command is in terminal
[02:00] <CZ-18> Bidget: you need one of the packages called 'libcurses-<PROGRAMMINGLANGUAGE>
[02:00] <m-c> shira - what graphics card do you have?
[02:00] <__yy> Xpistos: good luck... you'll need it
[02:00] <Bidget> CZ-18, well when I run ./configure it's making sure that I have a C++ compiler so maybe C++?
[02:00] <thruxton> Xpistos: download the kernel source for the kernel you are running, then have a look in /usr/src/your_kernel/drivers, read some code then decide if thats really what you want to do
[02:00] <CZ-18> Bidget: you could install all of them, and that'd prolly do it. overkill, but it'd do it
[02:00] <Bidget> CZ-18, well it's not like they take up much disk space do they
[02:00] <CZ-18> Bidget: check if there is a directory called src in that folder
[02:00] <tech0007> takamarou: ok, before u go to the console, cd to the dir where you put the nvidia driver
[02:01] <shira> m-c: nvidia 7900gt
[02:01] <Bidget> CZ-18, actually I'm in the src directory
[02:01] <ubunubi> Is there a channel for gnome support?
[02:01] <CZ-18> Bidget: what file extension do the source files have?
[02:01] <shira> m-c: i have the proprietary drivers instaleld and enabled
[02:01] <tech0007> takamarou: then type this 'sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09-pkg#.run'
[02:01] <takamarou> tech0007, sudo sh NVID[tab]?
[02:01] <yuri_> hey guys, i just installed ubuntu ALT on an old pc. what is the quickest way to install a LAMP stack?
[02:01] <m-c> shira - closed source graphics driver, so you will want to go with the vendor tools - did you install nvidia-settings package ?
[02:01] <takamarou> tech0007, alright.  I'll go do it.
[02:01] <m-c> shira - see all the fun takamarou is having?  you'll get to join the fun
[02:02] <Xpistos> Let me also say, I don't want to do this, but I feel like I don't have a choice
[02:02] <Bidget> CZ-18, how do I tell which ones the source files are? there are a whole bunch of files in here... some sh, some asm, some are .check, and there's .c .h and .in as well
[02:02] <whileimhere> When I go to install via a deb file the program LIVES it says that I have a dependency that is not satisfiable libcairo2. I check synaptic and its says that I have both libcairo2 and libcairo2-dev installed. Any ideas of what to do?
[02:02] <Xpistos> I am a total newb
[02:02] <glitsj16> whileimhere: there's also a ubuntu repo for LiVES at http://akiradproject.net/repository if you'd like to keep regular updating going
[02:02] <m-c> Xpistos: burn your zune
[02:02] <Bidget> CZ-18, there's also .h and .guess
[02:02] <shira> m-c: i love messing with annoying graphics card settings that I know nothing of
[02:02] <CZ-18> Bidget: lets play it save, install them all =)
[02:02] <Xpistos> m-c: and replace it with what
[02:02] <Bidget> CZ-18, it almost looks like every file has a different extension...
[02:02] <shira> m-c: OK I installed nvidia-settings, how do i run it?
[02:02] <Bidget> CZ-18, lol ok
[02:02] <Xpistos> and iPod?
[02:02] <Xpistos> nah
[02:03] <m-c> shira - the nvidia-settings is run by Application -> System Tools - and it is pretty easy, once you get the settings right
[02:03] <shira> m-c: nvm, I just ran "nvidia-settings"
[02:03] <unop> Bidget, a source package is composed of all those files there - each doing a different task
[02:03] <Bidget> CZ-18, oh yeah theyre only going to take up like 30mb thats not really a problem at all
[02:03] <RichW> shira, System --> Administration
[02:03] <glitsj16> whileimhere: try the http://akiradproject.net/repository route to avoid those dependency issues
[02:03] <Bidget> unop, hmm I see, but how would I tell what programming language was used to make the application?
[02:03] <ubunubi> Anyone very familiar with troubleshooting Gnome? my "applications" menu randomly stopped working (won't drop down). "places" & "system" work fine
[02:03] <whileimhere> glitsj16: thanks will try that
[02:04] <Bidget> CZ-18, I think its working
[02:04] <Bidget> CZ-18, I've gotten through ./configure and now I'm on to make
[02:04] <Phixion> gawd damn my Ubuntu setup is sexy... :D
[02:04] <Bidget> CZ-18, lot of text is scrolling by but it looks like it's working so far
[02:04] <unop> Bidget, .c files are usually written in C  .h files are C header files that accompany .c files, .sh are usually shell scripts, .in are autoconf/automake files
[02:05] <CZ-18> Bidget: lots of text scrolling is good. When it stops, if the last few lines have anything that says "exit status " with anything other than a 0, thats bad
[02:05] <m-c> ubunubi: Strange - have you tried to move you .gnome into a different spot and log in again?
[02:05] <Bidget> unop, ah ok. well I was thinking it was c++ so I guess I was only off by a little :D
[02:05] <ubunubi> m-c nope. didn't want to bugger anything
[02:05] <Bidget> CZ-18, no collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
[02:05] <unop> Bidget, most source is written in in C/C++ -- but they could be in other languages too, python, perl, lisp, ruby
[02:05] <m-c> sounds like it is good and buggered already
[02:05] <takamarou> tech0007, alright, done.  do you want me to paste my xorg.conf now?
[02:05] <CZ-18> exit status 1 is bad, 0 would be successful
[02:05] <Mesiox> anything that can be compiled really :P
[02:05] <m-c> in the worst case, you can always reinstall, after backing up /home
[02:06] <ubunubi> m-c haha, yeah but i meant like not being able to get to a graphical desktop :) which i can do fine now. just can't make applications drop down
[02:06] <m-c> night everyone, let your problems all be learning experiences.
[02:06] <tech0007> takamarou: yes
[02:06] <CZ-18> Bidget: look through the text it outputted from the bottom up
[02:06] <Mesiox> any 1 know any good linux compilers..
[02:06] <takamarou> tech0007, wow.. wth..  xorg.conf is empty.
[02:06] <CZ-18> Bidget: look for something wrong (it would say 'error' or somethign
[02:06] <Bidget> unop, yeah I just installed all of the curses libraries, ruby and perl were both included hehe
[02:06] <CZ-18> Mesiox: what language? look at gcc or g++ for C or C++
[02:07] <Phixion> takamarou, are you sure you're looking in the correct place? /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:07] <Mesiox> c++
[02:07] <unop> Mesiox, Gnu g++
[02:07] <takamarou> tech0007, scratch that.. forgot a /
[02:07] <Bidget> CZ-18, well at the very very bottom it said "make: *** [main] Error 1"
[02:07] <CZ-18> Mesiox: g++ is the best
[02:07] <Mesiox> ok thanks
[02:07] <takamarou> tech0007, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24581/
[02:07] <CZ-18> Bidget: ok, keep going. that means the overall process failed, we want to know where that happened
[02:08] <Bidget> CZ-18, alright I'm looking through but I dont see anything yet
[02:08] <CZ-18> Bidget: there should prolly be something in there, usually these things are pretty verbose
[02:08] <Bidget> CZ-18, oh its very verbose....
[02:09] <tech0007> takamarou: now run 'sudo nvidia-xconfig'
[02:09] <Bidget> CZ-18, I see a spot that says warning cast from pointer to integer of different size but I dont think thats really an error...
[02:09] <takamarou> tech0007, and restart X, correct?
[02:09] <unop> Bidget, what is the name of this application you are building?
[02:09] <CZ-18> Bidget: it'd be near the bottom, because once it finds and error it should stop
[02:09] <tech0007> takamarou: wait, are you on X right now?
[02:09] <takamarou> tech0007, yes.
[02:09] <Bidget> unop, zsnes, apparently it's supposed to be in the repository but not for amd64 so I'm trying to compile it but its not working
[02:10] <Gigs> finally got ESD+dmix back on 8.04  man it feels good to have hassle-free sound again. :)
[02:10] <Bidget> CZ-18, oh hey I found it duhhh its so obvious hahaha
[02:10] <takamarou> tech0007, I think..  wouldn't I not be able to see anything if I wasn't on X?
[02:10] <tech0007> takamarou: yeah right....'glxinfo | grep render'
[02:10] <CZ-18> Bidget: WHAAT!?!  No wonder the i386 .deb didn't work...
[02:10] <Bidget> CZ-18, i386 architecture of input file (there are like 30 lines of this all witha  different file right here) is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output
[02:10] <takamarou> http://img353.imageshack.us/img353/1714/screenshot1ds5.png
[02:10] <takamarou> oops
[02:10] <CZ-18> *headdesk*

[02:11] <unop> !paste | takamarou
[02:11] <takamarou> unop, :/ sorry
[02:11] <CZ-18> Bidget: they are out there, I just assumed it wasn't cuz I don't have one =P
[02:11] <Phixion> I have an AMD 64 on my desktop... its about to be thrown for a c2duo or c2quad :)
[02:12] <b2s> Is anyone else having an issue where pidgin's ICQ is broken in Ubuntu 8.04?
[02:12] <recon69> takamarou: the glx error means you dont have the restricted drivers installed for you video card
[02:12] <Bidget> well I was going to but amd is just so much cheaper it's not worth the extra money for something that can calculate a million digits of pi 4 seconds faster
[02:12] <whileimhere> Okay here is a really tough one because it involves a KDE app but I had no luck in the Kubuntu room. I use DigiKam for my photos. I want to upload the images to googles images but there is no built in export for this. Am I just missing it or is there no way to upload images to Google images via Linux?
[02:12] <Bidget> anyway back to the problem of compiling is there no way it will work for amd?
[02:12] <takamarou> recon69, I'm in a whole mess of problems..  I can't get them installed
[02:12] <CZ-18> Bidget: I'm looking for a .deb for amd64, hang on
[02:12] <takamarou> tech0007, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24582/   there's the paste of the grep render thingy.
[02:12] <Bidget> CZ-18, thanks
[02:13] <Bidget> CZ-18, found a forum thread that says how to install zsnes on amd64 yess
[02:13] <unop> Bidget, maybe you ought to run this if you haven't already.   sudo apt-get build-dep zsnes
[02:14] <Bidget> unop, ok I did that command, installed just fine
[02:14] <CZ-18> Bidget: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=588744
[02:14] <Bidget> CZ-18, I'm already at that thread :D
[02:14] <CZ-18> Bidget: ahh, thats prolly the one you found. I'm a second slow, it appears
[02:14] <ubunubi> what's the name of the core gnome package?
[02:14] <tech0007> takamarou: check if libglx.so is linked to nvidia's ...'locate libglx.so'
[02:15] <takamarou> /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
[02:15] <s3a> my partition editor doesnt resize my partitions! (I HAVE ENOUGH SPACE ETC) ----> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5308735#post5308735
[02:15] <unop> ubunubi, what are you actually trying to do?
[02:15] <Bidget> CZ-18, hmmm this thing is for gutsy/feisty, think it will work for hardy?
[02:15] <ubunubi> reinstall gnome to fix an issue
[02:15] <CZ-18> Bidget: it most likely should
[02:15] <Bidget> CZ-18, alright well lets hope some magic happens
[02:15] <CZ-18> Bidget: One way to find out =)
[02:15] <takamarou> tech0007, do you want me to open that file?  or does the locate output do it for you?
[02:15] <tech0007> takamarou: just locate it, now 'ls -lh /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/'
[02:16] <ubunubi> unop: my "applications" menu won't drop down anymore. and i can't find any way to troubleshoot why, so i'm hoping marking the core gnome package for reinstallation will rewrite whatever config file has become corrupted
[02:16] <takamarou> tech0007, ehhh, no such file or directory?
[02:17] <unop> ubunubi, well, the best way would be to reinstall all the gnome and gtk packages . something like this .  sudo aptitude reinstall $(dpkg -l | grep -iE "gnome|gtk" | cut -d " " -f 3)
[02:17] <kapace> hello, what is the minimalist way to get kde working (least MB to dl)?
[02:17] <ubunubi> unop: there's not a dummy package that will list everything it needs as dependencies?
[02:17] <zelrikriando> ubunubi, there is a better way to fix it
[02:17] <ubunubi> zelrikriando: what's that zel?
[02:18] <Hanif85> hey guys I got a midterm tomorrow and I need time to study. I got work tomorrow at 7AM (as a jr network admin/systems analyst). However, its contract and my contract ends Friday. Should I just call in sick tomorrow and go on Friday (my last day)?
[02:18] <unop> ubunubi, probably ubuntu-desktop but i am not sure how it works when reinstalled
[02:18] <tech0007> takamarou: its supposed to be nvidia's glx, did u get any errors when you ran the driver in console
[02:18] <zelrikriando> ubunubi, hold on I ll give you some instructions
[02:18] <Rabble_Leader> #postfix
[02:18] <recon69> CZ-18: thx for the help, it's good to have narrowed the problem down somewhat
[02:19] <hawthoerne> ok whar is this system i'm supposed to click on? the applications menu?
[02:19] <cibariox> Hi, i need some help with an "Unexpected IRQ trap" error during boot, i had working hardy rel... and it suddenly broke up
[02:19] <takamarou> tech0007, no.
[02:19] <juninhu> iae
[02:19] <unop> kapace, you looking for a full kde desktop environment?
[02:19] <zelrikriando> ubunubi, try to move your .gnome and .config to .gnome_backup and .config_backup then reboot
[02:19] <Bidget> CZ-18, ah damn this doesnt work for hardy it just tells me that it failed to fetch the package and some index files failed to download
[02:19] <juninhu> j/ ubuntu-br
[02:19] <Bidget> CZ-18, I guess I'm out of luck... do you think it might run under wine?
[02:20] <kapace> unop: no just minimalist
[02:20] <zelrikriando> ubunubi, if that doesnt fix it then listen to unop :p
[02:20] <juninhu> j/ #ubuntu-br
[02:20] <unop> zelrikriando, ~/.config is quite important and does not pertain to gnome settings alone
[02:20] <Braydon619> can anyone help me? frostwire quit working on me so i took it off, some people recommended Deluge, so i got that working. Did a search it opens up mininova with my results but when i try to download something it asks me which program to open with, which is currently set to transmission, i tried to click other program but can't find Deluge in the filesystem, can anyone tell me where it'd be installed or any music downloading program
[02:20] <ubunubi> zelrikriando: those directories dont exist with 2.22. just :  .gconf, .gconfd, .gnome2, .gnome2_private
[02:20] <CZ-18> Bidget: what package did it fail to fetch? and you can check the wine appdb
[02:20] <tech0007> takamarou: X is not finding your nvidia driver, whats the output of 'locate nvidia_drv.so'
[02:21] <zelrikriando> unop, I might have done a mistake then...but the .gnome for sure
[02:21] <takamarou> tech0007, no output.
[02:21] <hawthoerne> ok whar is this system i'm supposed to click on? the applications menu? b/c i don't see where preferences is...
[02:21] <Bidget> CZ-18, it was some package that it told me to point to at like dfreer.org/ some such number I dunno I've kind of given up I'll see if it works with wine
[02:21] <zelrikriando> unop, maybe the gconf then
[02:21] <Braydon619> anyone?
[02:21] <zelrikriando> unop, I remember doing it with 2 .folders
[02:21] <unop> zelrikriando, yea ~/.gnome*, ~/.gtk* and ~/.gconf*
[02:22] <RH> hi guys.. where can I find the application those r not listed in 'all available applications'
[02:22] <cibariox> takamarou: no output? ... did u try removing every graphic driver on safe mode, reboot and reinstall ?
[02:22] <takamarou> hawthoerne, System is on the same bar as Applications.. look right.
[02:22] <fazed> hello everyone
[02:22] <Braydon619> can anyone help me? frostwire quit working on me so i took it off, some people recommended Deluge, so i got that working. Did a search it opens up mininova with my results but when i try to download something it asks me which program to open with, which is currently set to transmission, i tried to click other program but can't find Deluge in the filesystem, can anyone tell me where it'd be installed or any music downloading prog
[02:22] <takamarou> cibariox, no, I have not.
[02:22] <tech0007> takamarou: cibariox: i think nvidia's not installing right
[02:22] <takamarou> cibariox, reinstall as in reinstall ubuntu?  or the drivers?
[02:22] <CZ-18> Bidget: that works, then. ha.
[02:22] <s3a> any1 no how to help with partition resizing problems?
[02:22] <Bidget> CZ-18, ah apparently it has gold compatibility as well, woohoo :)
[02:22] <hawthoerne> takamarou: is it on XUbuntu, b/c i dun see it
[02:23] <cibariox> takamarou: no... i mean the driver...
[02:23] <tech0007> takamarou: try uninstalling it first, kill X, then run 'sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09-pkg#.run --uninstall'
[02:23] <takamarou> hawthoerna, System should be in your Applications menu, I think.
[02:23] <takamarou> tech0007, uninstalling what?
[02:23] <tech0007> takamarou: the driver
[02:23] <hawthoerne> there is no "preferences"
[02:23] <RH> where can I find the application those r not listed in 'all available applications'
[02:23] <takamarou> tech0007, oh.  yeah.  duh.  brb
[02:24] <tech0007> brb
[02:24] <unop> kapace, maybe kde kde-base kde-core kdesktop konqueror
[02:25] <hawthoerne> takamarou: there is no preferences
[02:26] <takamarou> tech0007, that seemed to work.. but now my monitor is giving me a warning that it is getting no input.. I have to turn it on and off every 20 seconds :S
[02:26] <Bidget> CZ-18, hmm doesn't appear to be working quite right but I should be able to figure it out from here. thanks for all the help, also thanks unop :)
[02:26] <cibariox>  reboot ur system and start x on safe mode
[02:26] <CZ-18> Bidget: np, sorry we couldn't get it working initially. good luck =)
[02:26] <fazed> I have a question, i suspect i know the answer but i figured i would ask, it involves the filesystem
[02:26] <takamarou> ahh, wait.. I think I got it.. just changed my resolution :)
[02:27] <tech0007> !ask | fazed
[02:27] <rand0m> k i have win xp installed on my master drive, but the mbr was fuxored - i just installed ubuntu on the slave and it boots up fine, but no boot loader loads asking me to choose an OS... can someone tell me how to configure one and what i'd put in it ?
[02:27] <unop> !ask | fazed,
[02:27] <jay> hello!
[02:27] <|v|4s7e|2> how do i change the volume
[02:27] <jay> is there a way to read HFS+ drives?
[02:27] <jay> windows has MacDrive
[02:27] <jay> anything like that?
[02:27] <takamarou> tech0007, alright, after I restarted X, a big Nvidia logo came up.. it appears that I am out of low graphics mode now.. Anything I should check before we call it fixed?
[02:27] <jay> my external is formatted in mac hfs+
[02:28] <fazed> My question is this: Is it possible to expand the size of the filesystem without reinstalling both operating systems?
[02:28] <unop> jay, linux can read hfs+ drives
[02:28] <tech0007> takamarou: 'glxinfo | grep render'
[02:28] <jay> unop: it reads it sort of
[02:28] <jay> some folders
[02:28] <jay> but i get Permission Denied on my music!
[02:28] <takamarou> tech0007, direct rendering: Yes
[02:28] <takamarou> OpenGL renderer string: GeForce FX 5200/PCI/SSE2
[02:29] <tech0007> takamarou: look ok now
[02:29] <jay> i installed hfs+ from synaptic
[02:29] <unop> jay, you probably need to set the uid and gid options to mount so the mount point is owned by you
[02:29] <jay> no luck
[02:29] <tech0007> takamarou: *looks ok
[02:29] <takamarou> tech0007, thank you very very much.  you're awesome :)
[02:29] <jay> i tried changing permissions
[02:29] <tech0007> takamarou: just wanted to help
[02:29] <jay> it still didnt work
[02:30] <cibariox> u may want to help me? XD
[02:30] <jay> is uid/gid different?
[02:30] <tech0007> !ask | cibariox
[02:30] <unop> jay, you're not listening, changing permissions is not the same as adjusting the uid/gid mount options
[02:30] <jay> oh
[02:30] <jay> ok
[02:30] <unop> jay, to find out your uid and gid -- use this command.   echo $UID $GID
[02:31] <jay> ok, i am 1000
[02:31] <jay> the folders are 99
[02:31] <jay> wtf!
[02:31] <unop> folders are 99??
[02:31] <maynards-girl> what was the link to the screencasting software?
[02:32] <jay> owner=99
[02:32] <cibariox> ok the thing is this booting error... it says "Unexpected IRQ trap at Vector 92" here i think the vector is just a pointer... i have tried unplugging my hardware even the hard drives and tried booting from live cd getting the same msg... replaced my graphic card and still...
[02:32] <jay> group id=99
[02:32] <unop> !search screencast
[02:32] <rand0m> k i have win xp installed on my master drive, but the mbr was fuxored - i just installed ubuntu on the slave and it boots up fine, but no boot loader loads asking me to choose an OS... can someone tell me how to configure one and what i'd put in it ?
[02:32] <unop> !screencast | maynards-girl
[02:32] <maynards-girl> thank you!
[02:32] <maynards-girl> that's what I was looking for
[02:33] <scifiguy951> what would plugging a phone wire into the back of my pc do? and what could i do with it?
[02:33] <Mesiox> nothing..
[02:33] <unop> jay, right, that's because your mac would have set your user up with UID=99 -- and so any files that user creates, have a owner of UID=99 -- which is why you need to adjust how this volume is mounted, so that the UID is mapped to your current user's UID (1000)
[02:33] <__yy> scifiguy951: it depends a lot on what you plug it in to
[02:34] <tech0007> cibariox: you can boot to ubuntu or r u trying to install it?
[02:34] <jay> oooh
[02:34] <jay> ok
[02:34] <Mesiox> phone wire has like less coper than a ethernet true?
[02:34] <tekryan> is there some kind of realvnc package for ubuntu?
[02:34] <jay> so, i unmount first?
[02:34] <jay> how do i mount?
[02:35] <tekryan> i see a tarball but not sure if that's the best approach
[02:35] <cibariox> i already have hardy... it worked just fine until last night
[02:35] <__yy> Mesiox: significantly less...
[02:35] <unop> jay, yes unmount first -- look at the mount manpage on how to use the hfs options
[02:35] <scifiguy951> its a pci card i have had and i put it in
[02:35] <cibariox> and thats the weird thing... i didnt change anything
[02:35] <jay> ok thanks i will look now
[02:35] <rand0m> easier question since my first one went unanswered twice.... im runnung ubuntu off a slave, and my master isn't mounted automatically.. how do i have it mount the master automatically upon boot ?
[02:35] <__yy> rand0m: you need to add an entry in your fstab
[02:36] <tekryan> isn't ubuntu default load through grub?
[02:36] <tekryan> or whatever the loader is
[02:36] <unop> grub, yes
[02:36] <Mesiox> yeah
[02:36] <scifiguy951> nothing came up when i started the pc
[02:36] <scifiguy951> ?
[02:37] <scifiguy951> is it detected?
[02:37] <tekryan> so realistically if it's on the slave...which is how I have it set up it should go to nix automatically
[02:37] <unop> tekryan, that's assuming a lot of things tho
[02:38] <murlidhar> is there any ubuntu special live cd that doesn't have a GUI ?
[02:38] <tekryan> server edition doesn't have gui....i think
[02:38] <tech0007> murlidhar: it isnt a livecd if there's no gui
[02:38] <tekryan> might be wrong about that though
[02:38] <__yy> murlidhar: you can boot the regular one to a command like I believe, and server is text based
[02:39] <jianh> jainl
[02:39] <murlidhar> i just want to use it as a recovery cd
[02:39] <unop> murlidhar, tekryan - don't think the server install CD is a live CD tho -- it's more like the alternate CD
[02:39] <unop> murlidhar, what's wrong with the regular live CD for that?
[02:39] <murlidhar> tech0007: i just want to have a recovery cd that goes easy on my ram
[02:39] <murlidhar> unop: ^
[02:39] <koop> hey guys... hwo can i make a full copy of my linux system onto a dvd so i dont have to reinstall all applications if i need to format or copy my system to another pc¡
[02:39] <tekryan> i don't know why everyone hates gui. I find gui a heck of a lot easier to learn on
[02:39] <koop> ?
[02:40] <tekryan> but i guess if you know nix in and out that wouldn't apply to you
[02:40] <tekryan> i'm more of a sa for windoze
[02:40] <[[thufir]]> for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ODBC , my.database.server =?= mysql
[02:40] <unop> murlidhar, well, you can always boot up and kill X -- but you might like to pick something else up, DSL or feather
[02:41] <[[thufir]]> or localhost
[02:41] <AussieBobby> I need some help..anyone up for it. My ubuntu has been crashing( a beep then black sceen, pc turns off) the last few days cpu is at 50- 70+% now while typing this ,40+% at idle.Iv installed a fresh copy to a second HD and no problems and I have not installed updates for this.Is there some kind of error console that I could check and paste the problem when it happens again.
[02:41] <murlidhar> unop: how to kill x ?
[02:41] <murlidhar> unop: i am a noob but learning slowly
[02:41] <s3a> is there a command that lists all the applications you installed?
[02:41] <Rabble_Leader> where does one go to have an free wheeling ubuntu related conversation without folks throwing the rules in one's face?
[02:41] <koop> no one knows how to make a dvd of my partition???
[02:41] <unop> murlidhar, at the console (i.e. CTRL+ALT+F1) .. sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop
[02:41] <unop> s3a, dpkg -l
[02:42] <unop> !ot | Rabble_Leader
[02:42] <__yy> s3a: ls /bin /usr/bin /usr/local/bin should be a good start... although not terribly verbose
[02:42] <Rabble_Leader> is there an ubuntu anarcy chat or something?
[02:42] <murlidhar> unop: how do i get to console ? after entering the gnome desktop ?
[02:42] <sps> where to download the updated 8.04.1? is it available yet?
[02:42] <unop> murlidhar, like i said - CTRL+ALT+F1
[02:42] <Rabble_Leader> thank you ubottu
[02:43] <tech0007> murlidhar: try http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page
[02:43] <s3a> unop: thx
[02:43] <murlidhar> tech0007: i needed an ubuntu based system
[02:43] <tekryan> realvnc for ubuntu plz
[02:43] <tekryan> anyone
[02:43] <Rabble_Leader> that sounds like what I'm looking for
[02:43] <murlidhar> tech0007: thanks for the info though
[02:43] <thedefender> hey guys whats a good way of partioning, and the sizes i should make for ubuntu
[02:44] <__yy> tekryan: vncviewer/vncserver
[02:44] <rand0m> i have ubuntu installed on my 15gb slave drive, and its running fine but it won't recognize the 160gb master i have as the master (with xp on it).. grub doesn't even load on boot.. it just tosses me right into ubuntu
[02:44] <rand0m> anyone know how to fix that ?
[02:44] <s3a> __yy: o sh*t, ur thing does the same thing as wat unop said but looks more butiful
[02:44] <thedefender> i don't want to use guided
[02:44] <tekryan> _yy: yes
[02:44] <s3a> __yy: wait does it do the same thing?
[02:44] <murlidhar> rand0m: u have to install the grub on the master drive
[02:44] <unop> s3a, it does not do the same thing
[02:44] <powertool08> any proficient screen users know how to change a session name after process is started?
[02:44] <s3a> unop: ya i kinda realized
[02:44] <rand0m> murlidhar, am i able to do that from within ubuntu on the slave?
[02:45] <s3a> unop: but liked the colours :(
[02:45] <thedefender> anyone know any good articles
[02:45] <s3a> unop: lool
[02:45] <murlidhar> rand0m: yes do sudo grub
[02:45] <ubunubi> zelrikriando: renaming all the gnome related directories reset all my settings but didn't fix the application menu
[02:45] <unop> s3a, colours ?? wtf
[02:45] <__yy> s3a: mine just lists out the contents of the standard folders for binary files ... which is generally where your programs are. unop told you how to list all the packages installed on your system
[02:45] <sps> where to download the updated 8.04.1? is it available yet? anyone?
[02:45] <zelrikriando> ubunubi, that's not good
[02:45] <unop> powertool08, nothing in the manpage?
[02:45] <zelrikriando> ubunubi, welll...ask somebody else then :)
[02:45] <s3a> unop: __yy's command had colours
[02:46] <s3a> __yy: i wanted a command that listed every app installed
[02:46] <powertool08> unop: It tells how to set it when I start the process, not how to change after its going
[02:46] <unop> s3a, i know -- i'm just saying, it adds to the visual noise
[02:46] <reeves> hey whats up
[02:46] <rand0m> murlidhar, sorry im a noob.. i did "sudo grub" and now i have a "grub>" prompt.. what would i type to do what i mentioned above ?
[02:46] <reeves> nice to meet xou =) ...bye
[02:46] <__yy> s3a: neither command does exactly that... both of them do sort of that in different ways.
[02:46] <unop> powertool08, hmm, what are you actually trying to do? maybe there is a better way around this?
[02:47] <murlidhar> rand0m: wait let me get those
[02:47] <unop> s3a, dpkg -l  lists ever app installed
[02:47] <tekryan> sudo apt-get install beryl doesn't work
[02:47] <unop> s3a, atleast those installed from the repos
[02:47] <__yy> along with many other things ...
[02:47] <tekryan> beryl not a package?
[02:47] <irotas> anyone know how to configure what application gets launched when an iPod is connected ?
[02:47] <tekryan> or what
[02:47] <rand0m> murlidhar, thank you
[02:47] <armon__> hi, all,is there anyone familiar with anjuta?I have  a problem
[02:47] <unop> __yy, were you addressing me there?
[02:48] <powertool08> unop: screen -ls lists several process but I don't know which is which without attach, detach until I find what I'm looking for
[02:48] <rand0m> murlidhar, i should also mention that it doesn't look like that master drive is even mounted
[02:48] <s3a> unop: there is no command for absolutely each app in the system?
[02:48] <powertool08> unop: so I want to rename the sessions to recognizable names
[02:48] <unop> s3a, well, i'm not sure what you mean -- but i am pretty sure that you want  dpkg -l
[02:48] <Storrgie> I would like some particular guidance on mounting a drive
[02:48] <Storrgie> if anyone has time
[02:48] <yoyoned> all of a sudden I can't sudo "user is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported."
[02:49] <unop> powertool08, hmm, why not set the session names when launching screen?
[02:49] <powertool08> unop: I found a guide which said ctrl-a sesionname newsessionname
[02:49] <tech0007> !ask | Storrgie
[02:49] <unop> yoyoned, what does this command give you?   id; groups
[02:49] <powertool08> unop: well I will from now on, but I don't want to have to close all my processes and reopen them if I can rename it
[02:50] <yoyoned> unop: uid=1000(todd) gid=1000(todd) groups=129(sambashare),1000(todd)
[02:50] <yoyoned> todd sambashare
[02:50] <Storrgie> tech0007: just need to nab someone in a private chat, it will be very simple im sure
[02:50] <s3a> unop: well wat if i install .debs not from repository, will it still list those apps?
[02:50] <unop> powertool08, not really sure -- maybe you'd like to ask the guys in #bash, some of them use screen quite proficiently
[02:50] <yoyoned> unop: looks like I lost the wheel group?
[02:50] <pyrourk> exit
[02:50] <powertool08> unop: ok, thanks
[02:50] <unop> yoyoned, not wheel - but admin
[02:50] <murlidhar_> rand0m: what is the output now
[02:51] <rand0m> ... not sure what you mean

[02:53] <s3a> unop: do normal .debs count as source or repository kind of download?
[02:53] <babolat> Is it normal that when you boot up your system with the monitor turned off, you're limited to 640x480 Resolution?
[02:53] <murlidhar_> rand0m: Type "root (hd1,0)"
[02:53] <unop> s3a, normal .debs do not count as source - they are binary packages
[02:53] <rand0m> just brought me to the next line without saying anything
[02:54] <hawthoerne> how do i change my cursor in xubuntu
[02:54] <murlidhar_> rand0m: setup (hd0)
[02:54] <s3a> unop: so would normal .debs show in dpkg -l?
[02:54] <jay> unop: hi.  i read the man page
[02:54] <rand0m> did a bunch of stuff then said "done".
[02:54] <rand0m> no errors it seems
[02:54] <|v|4s7e|2> how do i set up an audio card
[02:54] <jay> i'm still a little shaky with mounting via terminal
[02:54] <murlidhar_> rand0m: now it type "quit"
[02:54] <unop> s3a, no, the packages that were installed from .deb files are shown in  dpkg -l
[02:55] <unop> s3a, mind the difference tho
[02:55] <rand0m> oh ok so that should've done it ?
[02:55] <rand0m> reboot & check ?
[02:55] <jay> the man page said: uid=n gid=n
[02:55] <murlidhar_> rand0m: should be done . i just reboot and check if it is working
[02:55] <jay> what exactly would the command be?
[02:56] <rand0m> k cool i'll give it a shot, thanks a lot
[02:56] <jay> mount uid=1000 gid=1000 /media/External  ??
[02:56] <unop> jay, basically,.   mount /dev/something /path/to/mountpoint -o uid=1000,gid=1000
[02:56] <s3a> unop: k, thx, i kinda have to boot in windows now to remote assist sum1
[02:56] <jay> oh
[02:56] <murlidhar_> rand0m: do it fast since i am running out of time
[02:56] <|v|4s7e|2> how do i setup an audio card with alsa or oss
[02:56] <rand0m> rebooting now
[02:56] <jay> i never really understood the mount paths
[02:56] <rand0m> no dice.. it just booted right into ubuntu again
[02:56] <rand0m> however, i saw "press esc for menu "
[02:56] <rand0m> should i do that
[02:56] <rand0m> ?
[02:56] <jay> it always mounts to /media/External
[02:57] <murlidhar_> do it
[02:57] <unop> jay, actually -- mount -o uid=1000,gid=1000  .....
[02:57] <tech0007> jay: where do u want to mount it?
[02:57] <jay> does it matter?
[02:57] <jay> i don't know
[02:57] <babolat> Is it normal that when you boot up your system with the monitor turned off, you're limited to 640x480 Resolution?
[02:57] <unop> jay, you can mount it at /media/External if you want
[02:57] <jay> ok
[02:57] <jay> cool
[02:58] <jay> that's a fine spot!
[02:58] <jay> ahaha
[02:58] <unop> jay, just make sure that nothing is mounted there already
[02:58] <jay> ok
[02:58] <tech0007> jay:mount point doesnt really matter, as long as its descriptive enough.
[02:58] <murlidhar_> rand0m: did the menu show up ?
[02:58] <jay> oh
[02:58] <rand0m> yeah the menu showed up but my master drive with xp isn't showing still
[02:58] <murlidhar_> rand0m: hhmm
[02:58] <babolat> rand0m: do you have ntfs-3g installed?
[02:59] <hawthoerne> how do i change my cursor in xubuntu
[02:59] <jay> so: mount -o uid=1000,gid=1000 /media/External  ??
[02:59] <rand0m> babolat, not sure
[02:59] <rand0m> dont even know what it is
[02:59] <unop> jay, almost, but you forgot the device you are mounting :)
[02:59] <jay> oh
[02:59] <jay> umm
[02:59] <jay> oh, i see
[02:59] <babolat> rand0m: it's something that gives you acces to ntfs disks.. check with synaptic use the search function in it
[02:59] <jay> that's the path
[02:59] <murlidhar_> rand0m: since i am busy right now , i am afraid i might not be able to help u right now . u can ask unop for further assistance.
[02:59] <jay> umm
[03:00] <murlidhar_> unop: won't u ?
[03:00] <unop> murlidhar, i'll try
[03:00] <rand0m> murlidhar, it's all good, go about your day.  I appreciate the help you've given.. i can atleast get into grub now :D
[03:00] <murlidhar_> cya guys
[03:00] <lat__> tech0007, thanks again! That solved the problem.
[03:00] <rand0m> have a good one
[03:00] <tech0007> lat_ np
[03:00] <Braydon619> can anyone help me? frostwire quit working on me so i took it off, some people recommended Deluge, so i got that working. Did a search it opens up mininova with my results but when i try to download something it asks me which program to open with, which is currently set to transmission, i tried to click other program but can't find Deluge in the filesystem, can anyone tell me where it'd be installed or any music downloading prog
[03:00] <jay> how do i know what the dev is?
[03:00] <jay> /dev/???
[03:01] <unop> Braydon619, at a terminal --  which deluge
[03:01] <unop> jay, use fdisk -l to find out
[03:01] <tech0007> Braydon619: click to select other program...then type /usr/bin/deluge
[03:01] <Bora> hello...... is there a way to download all needed (.deb) files onto a harddrive and then update and install from that harddrive when there is no internet connection?
[03:02] <grendelson> I upgrade a Compaq Armada 700 that was using a CISCO aironet 350 pcmcia card just fine - now the pcmcia won't detect the card after the upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04.  I'm guessing I have to enable some pcmcia but I can't seem to find a doc on it ...can you point me to one please Again the pcmcia wireless car was working fine...
[03:02] <babolat> yes, Bora. Download repo ISOs, mount them when you need them
[03:02] <edju> Running Hardy 32-bit and trying to get wireless to work, so far to no avail.  Wondering now . . . lshw -class network shows the card, but "width: 64bits".  Is that a problem?  Ethernet shows 32-bit width.
[03:02] <unop> Bora, yea,  apt-get -d install packagename  # to get all the .debs for a package and it's dependencies
[03:03] <grendelson> The /etc/network/interfaces is the same after the upgrade and I jsut get a device not found when I attempt to bring up network - also lspci jsut shows me the pcmcia slots but no device...
[03:03] <grendelson> lspcmcia I meant
[03:03] <chowmeined> where does the file sharing gui thing put its configuration?
[03:03] <babolat> Bora: if you're looking to create your own offline repository on DVD, here is a good howto -->http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=352460&highlight=iso+repos
[03:03] <chowmeined> its not adding the shares to /etc/samba/smb.conf
[03:04] <rand0m> unop:  here's the situation.. i have a master drive with win xp on it but i killed the mbr accidentally stopping a debian install last night.  i have ubuntu now running on the slave drive, and i think murlidhar just helped me install grub onto the master drive, but - win xp from the master doesn't show up as an option in grub - but my main concern is that the master isn't mounted once i do boot into ubuntu
[03:04] <Bora> howto will be good thanks
[03:04] <unop> chowmeined, are you setting up samba shares tho ? you might be setting up nfs shares with the gui tool
[03:04] <Braydon619> tech007: thank you that worked..... how come it wasn't in usr/lib/ like the other programs?
[03:04] <chowmeined> unop, they are samba, because im copying from it in windows right now
[03:04] <babolat> rand0m: you'll need ntfs3g to access ntfs file systems on your ubuntu box
[03:05] <tech0007> Braydon619: programs are usually in /usr/bin
[03:05] <jay> mount -o uid=1000,gid=1000  /dev/sdd /media/External
[03:05] <Storrgie> I would like to know if someone can help me setup my X-FI Xtrememusic sound card
[03:05] <jay> aha!
[03:05] <unop> chowmeined, samba's config file is the smb.conf  -- are you sure you haven't overlooked your share in it?
[03:06] <unop> jay, /dev/sdd?? might be /dev/sdd1
[03:06] <babolat> !ntfs | rand0m
[03:06] <chowmeined> unop, i dont see it in there..
[03:06] <Braydon619> tech007: oh ok, i'm just confused then, because firefox and frostwire were both in that directory.... it's a pain trying to learn this after being raised on windows
[03:06] <jay> Disk /dev/sdd doesn't contain a valid partition table
[03:06] <tech0007> Braydon619: np
[03:06] <unop> rand0m, you need to setup grub to chainload to the windows bootloader -- see !grub on that
[03:06] <jay> that's my fdisk
[03:07] <Bora> another Q... is there a good place to ask about drivers for my video or there is another place for that?
[03:07] <unop> jay, i think it is /dev/sdd1
[03:07] <jay> ok
[03:07] <jay> i'll try that
[03:07] <FelixTheCat> hawthoerne: did you get your question answered?
[03:07] <tech0007> Bora: google '[graphicscard] irc channel'
[03:07] <unop> jay, and don't forget sudo
[03:08] <jay> yes!
[03:08] <jay> ok thanks
[03:08] <Storrgie> Anyone set up a Creative X-FI card in ubuntu?
[03:08] <unop> chowmeined, i would do this -  grep -iEnHR sharename /etc/
[03:08] <pen> how do I enable hal support for xorg-server?
[03:08] <hawthoerne> FelixTheCat: yes on another channel
[03:08] <FelixTheCat> hawthoerne: excellent
[03:09] <jay> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[03:09] <jay> that's what it said
[03:09] <jay> hmm
[03:09] <Pici> jay: what fs type is it?
[03:09] <unop> jay, mount -t hfs ...
[03:09] <grendelson> I upgraded my laptop from 7.10 to 8.04.  Everything appears to have upgraded OK - but now the wireless pcmcia card is no longer detected. The card worked fine under 7.10 and I did the upgrade using the wireless network....  any FAQ or erratta on getting pcmcia to work again wit this card?
[03:09] <unop> jay, or maybe,  mount -t hfsplus
[03:09] <armon_> I made a project on GTK+ using c, but now i want to add some .cpp file, so i changed main.c to main.cpp, but when i compile, it said that no rule to make, it need main.c
[03:10] <skeletonejack> Does Pidgin have it's own repository that is kept up to date?
[03:10] <jay> mount -t hfsplus -o uid=1000,gid=1000  /dev/sdd /media/External
[03:10] <jay> like that?
[03:10] <armon_> I am using anjuta
[03:10] <unop> jay, sounds good
[03:10] <jay> ok
[03:10] <unop> armon_, head to #gtk
[03:11] <armon_> unop, OK
[03:12] <Bora> >tech0007 graphicscard is not found on xchat!!! ?
[03:12] <jay> mount: /dev/sdd3 already mounted or /media/External busy
[03:12] <jay> hmm
[03:12] <tech0007> Bora: nope, substitute your graphics card in google search
[03:12] <jay> i think i'm closer
[03:12] <jay> not sure what happened
[03:12] <jay> umnount /dev/sdd3
[03:12] <Leefmc> Question: Can anyone give me a clue why Rhythmbox would be insanely slow to write to an ipod, or to rip a cd? Note that rhythmbox has no problems playing the IPod.  I'd umount both of them and re-insert your external storage ... unless you have a reason not to.
[03:15] <Bora> tech: there is no 3d, no visual effects.. i will get the catolog of my motherboard
[03:15] <jay> sorry
[03:15] <Leefmc> unop: I believe so. Its not me actually, its someone i got to run ubuntu. Apparently when he was using windows, he could transfer entire albums to it very fast, so i assume hes using usb2. In any event, it is much slower on Ubuntu now. Thoughts?
[03:16] <Bora> >>Tech007 (intel 945gc a2 chipset)
[03:16] <tech0007> got a question: since the last samba update, nautilus hangs and consumes 80%+ CPU, and doesnt display the contents of the shared drive..any thoughts?
[03:16] <unop> Leefmc, not sure - i use gtkpod -- and it is comparatively slower than itunes on windows -- so it might be that rhythmbox is generally slower -- try using gtkpod, see if it is any faster
[03:17] <tech0007> Bora: paste your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log to paste.ubuntu.com
[03:17] <Leefmc> unop: Well i use Rhythmbox, and from the sounds of it, he has a problem. Rhythmbox for me takes a few seconds for a cd, his takes an hour.
[03:17] <J-a-k-e> hi, is anyone able to help me out? I get a grub error 17" invalid device or partition"  error when i try to load ubuntu 8.04 dualbooting with xp
[03:17] <Leefmc> unop: But, the same thing happens when he rips a CD with Rhythmbox, it takes forever (hour+)
[03:18] <tech0007> the freeze happens after i log back in, have to kill nautilus, smbclient -L works..
[03:18] <FelixTheCat> J-a-k-e: I'd check your /boot/grub/menu.lst and make sure the Ubuntu line points to the correct drive/partition.
[03:18] <pen> how do I enable hal support for xorg-server?
[03:19] <unop> Leefmc, strange - can't really say as i don't use rhythmbox except to maybe reinstall rhythmbox and cross your fingers
[03:19] <srdan> server irc.debian.org
[03:19] <Leguman> join #ubuntu-fr
[03:19] <Leguman> oops sry :)
[03:19] <Leguman> missed the / ;-)
[03:19] <J-a-k-e> !grub
[03:20] <Leefmc> unop: Have you heard of conflicts with amarok?
[03:20] <unop> J-a-k-e, error 17 means that grub has found the partition but does not understand the filesystem it is formatted as -- my guess is that grub is trying to load the boot image off of a wrong partition, perhaps a windows partition
[03:20] <unop> Leefmc, no, and there shouldn't be
[03:20] <Leefmc> k
[03:21]  * unop wanders about for a bit
[03:21] <hawthoerne> how do i install a font
[03:21] <tech0007> !font | hawthoerne
[03:22] <J-a-k-e> I'm actually running windows at the moment, tho have got a driver so i can access my ubuntu drive. I have reinstalled ubuntu several times off the live cd following the quick install under https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[03:22] <ariel_> hello everyone, quick question.  After installing openvpn and getting connected to works vpn.  How can I do setting so internet traffic stays via my IsP an not via work?
[03:22] <grendelson> I'm guessing I missed a step or a package failed when upgrading to 8.04 from 7.10.  My laptop will no longer see the wireless Cisco PCMCIA card in it and so the network won't come up - I checked .etc.network.interfaces and nothing there appeas cahnge - the card and laptop worked fine under 7.10 and the upgrade was OVER the wireless network...  any ideas?  I've read the release notes and don't see anything PCMCIA related....
[03:23] <Bora> >>tech007 i did paste
[03:23] <tech0007> Bora: whats the link?
[03:24] <Leefmc> unop: Could there be any problem with his USB/CD ports/interfaces? Is there any tests i can have him preform to make sure his USB and CD are preforming properly? (I know the hardware is good, but im talking drivers, etc)
[03:24] <Bora> >> tech007: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24602/
[03:26] <tech0007> Bora: open terminal & type this, 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak'
[03:26] <Lerry757> anuone wanna play RN lf2? or RLF2?
[03:28] <Lerry757> anyone wanna play RN lf2?
[03:28] <Lerry757> anyone want to play?
[03:28] <Leefmc> unop: If he completely removes amarok and rhythmbox, will that remove any vital libraries that wont be reinstalled with Rhythmbox?
[03:29] <Leefmc> Lerry757: Eh?
[03:29] <Leefmc> Lerry757: Words please. ;P
[03:29] <Lerry757> lol
[03:29] <Lerry757> do you play RN LF2?
[03:29] <Lerry757> or R LF2?
[03:29] <Leefmc> obviously not, if i am asking you to spell it out.
[03:29] <tech0007> !offtopic | Lerry757
[03:29] <Lerry757> ?
[03:30] <Lerry757> anyone here play Little fighter 2?
[03:30] <WebcamWonder> !offtopic | Lerry757
[03:30] <jay> hi
[03:30] <Leefmc> Lerry757: Also, tech0007  was trying to tell you this channel has a topic ;)
[03:30] <jay> now it says: mount: mount point /media/External does not exist
[03:30] <WebcamWonder> !hello | jay
[03:30] <Bora> >>tech007 i keep getting "can not stat" ******** "no such a file or directory"
[03:31] <Lerry757> im new here >.<
[03:31] <AMLNXUSR> how can i get a list of the available channels for ubuntu support?
[03:31] <Jester45> jay well does it exist ?
[03:31] <WebcamWonder> jay: Are you attempting to mount a partition?
[03:31] <Lerry757> I thought this was a Little Fighter oonly chat XP
[03:31] <jay> umm
[03:31] <jay> it's my external
[03:31] <Jester45> !channels
[03:31] <jay> it's an hfsplus formatted drive
[03:31] <WebcamWonder> jay: make sure the folder /media/External exists
[03:31] <jay> ok
[03:32] <WebcamWonder> jay: also make sure that the folder exists with the same name in Case Sensitivity (meaning captial L is different from small l)
[03:32] <tech0007> Bora: 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[03:32] <jay> ok thanks
[03:32] <jay> it usually auto mounts to there
[03:33] <Jester45> natilus may create the directory when mounting then removes when the drive is removed
[03:33] <Bora> >>tech: ok and ?
[03:33] <WebcamWonder> Jester45: technically gnome-volume-manager does that if I am correct
[03:34] <tech0007> Bora: change 'vesa' to 'i810', then press ctrl-O and ctrl-X
[03:34] <mauwitz> i want play games on Ubuntu hardy
[03:34] <Jester45> WebcamWonder: well... i dont use gnome so i took a guess
[03:34] <WebcamWonder> Jester45: :)
[03:34] <mauwitz> how programa i use?
[03:34] <WebcamWonder> mauwitz: Look at either wine, or some games provide native support to linux
[03:34] <Jester45> mauwitz: use synaptic to search for games or to play windows game use wine
[03:34] <WebcamWonder> !wine | mauwitz
[03:34] <isa268[FAN]> hello maybe you all can answer a question for me i currently only have usb 1.1 ports on this comp and would like to add on a pci usb 2.0 controller card, will any card work with ubuntu??   thank you.
[03:35] <norv> I have an mp3 player which seems to build a database at bootup. Unfortunately it skips over ALL the songs I've converted to mp3 via ffmpeg
[03:35] <alphaman1101> Has anyone been successful with getting the Zune Media Player to work with linux?
[03:35] <mark__> :)
[03:35] <Jester45> isa268[FAN]: most cards that i have used work fine. you might want to google if your not sure
[03:36] <norv> then I looked at the file and it says: MPEG ADTS, layer II, v2,  64 kBits, 22.05 kHz, Monaural
[03:36] <Jester45> alphaman1101: the zune software may run but you wont be able to access your zune
[03:36] <norv> is there any way I can have ffmpeg convert to: Darksun - El Legado.mp3:             Audio file with ID3 version 23.0 tag, MP3 encoding
[03:36] <WebcamWonder> norv: That looks like mp2 file, not mp3
[03:37] <WebcamWonder> norv: Look at LAME encoder for mp3 encoding (provides best encoding in smallest filesize)
[03:37] <Jester45> mp3 is mpeg layer 3
[03:37] <isa268[FAN]> yea google was not much help looks like "syba" cards don't have drivers.  how about ultra i was just going to order one from tigerdirect.  ultra is a big name it sould work? right?
[03:37] <Jester45> ultra worked for me
[03:37] <WebcamWonder> norv: Also if I am correct, mencoder and ffmpeg have LAME libraries included bydefault
[03:37] <norv> WebcamWonder: most places say you can just ffmpeg -i some.flv some.mp3
[03:38] <dennisn> I installed a fresh Ubuntu Intrepid on my laptop, and did eventually get wireless to work with ndiswrapper .... but all of a sudden, I can't reconnect to my AP ... I can do it manually with an iwconfig then ifconfig ..... but not via Network Manager :|. ... /var/log/messages has "dhcdbd: message_handler: message handler not found under /com/redhat/dhcp/eth0 for sub-path eth0.dbus.get.reason" ..... dunno if it's r
[03:38] <dennisn> elated to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dhcdbd/+bug/93360 ..... how can i reset the information that Network Manager has stored?
[03:38] <norv> WebcamWonder: which looks like it works, only because extension doesn't matter on Linux
[03:38] <alphaman1101> jester45, would a VM do the trick?
[03:39] <Jester45> alphaman1101: nope
[03:39] <Jester45> devices must work on the host to work in a VM
[03:39] <alphaman1101> ah
[03:39] <Jester45> the zune uses a special way to connect
[03:39] <alphaman1101> jester45, so if a windows user was running a vm with linux id find the zune?
[03:40] <norv> WebcamWonder: by the way, is there a good way to iterate through all *.mp3 files?
[03:40] <Jester45> that  why it wasnt compatible for vista for a long time (and might still be)
[03:40] <WebcamWonder> norv: Sorry, I do not understand what you mean by iterating
[03:40] <Jester45> alphaman1101: no it will only work with XP (maybe vista by now)
[03:40] <alphaman1101> jester45, its vista compatible now thats the only way to update it actily
[03:41] <norv> WebcamWonder: well, I mean, convert all flv files to mp3 files
[03:41] <JDK_HTTP> anybody have a driver with webcam and vga for clevo M550SE
[03:41] <WebcamWonder> norv: Last time I used iterating was in C++ with STL, :), but I guess that doesn't apply here :D
[03:41] <JDK_HTTP> ?
[03:41] <ataraxia_> i have a windows cursed laptop....6.06, 6.10, 8.04 won't even install
[03:41] <WebcamWonder> norv: Batch processing, I *Think* ffmpeg and some do provide it
[03:41] <ataraxia_> used to have 6.06 though
[03:42] <WebcamWonder> norv: Look at mencoder, I have had ffmpeg produce non-standard files, and you might want to up the bitrate to get better quality out of your files
[03:42] <Bora> >>tech007: ok, sorry i got it done...
[03:43] <Jester45> alphaman1101: the only way a windows VM could use it would be if the software directly forwards the usb calles
[03:43] <norv> WebcamWonder: yeah I'll try that, but batch processing only works if I can return the name of something.mp3 without the mp3 extension
[03:43] <tech0007> Bora: np, 'cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep i810'
[03:43] <alphaman1101> jester45 sounds like you could prorubly build a program to do this?
[03:43] <norv> WebcamWonder: does 'find' have something like that?
[03:44] <WebcamWonder> norv: Wait, let me digg up some articles
[03:44] <Jester45> but i dont know if any will i know qemu vmware and vbox support usb passtough but idk if it would work
[03:44] <Jester45> alphaman1101: yea... you could if MS gave you the source code... but then they wouldnt be MS they would be redhat
[03:44] <Bora> tech007: ok
[03:44] <Jester45> hehe
[03:44] <tech0007> Bora: so did u get any output?
[03:44] <suparman> hallo, good morning
[03:45] <ceap80> hi, my ubuntu 8.04 is dropping keyboard repeat events, is there anything i can do?
[03:45] <Bora> tech007: no output
[03:45] <WebcamWonder> norv: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/batch-script-for-mencoder-391865/
[03:45] <WebcamWonder> norv: You can use it for ffmpeg by tweaking it a little
[03:45] <norv> WebcamWonder: thanks
[03:46] <LetterRip> hi which channel for ibex issues?
[03:46] <tech0007> Bora: it still has vesa...'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' change vesa to i810, then save it
[03:46] <AMLNXUSR> Can someone please tell me how to install apps with a .tar.bz2 extension ive been reading about it but i just cant figure it out
[03:46] <WebcamWonder> norv: Glad to help
[03:46] <WebcamWonder> !install
[03:46] <tech0007> LetterRip: usually #ubuntu+1 but its aint there yet
[03:46] <joe_chat> why do 3dgames flutter with atigraphics radeon
[03:46] <IdleOne> !compile | AMLNXUSR
[03:46] <welkin> guys i installed ubunto 7.10 in my friends pc yesterday in tat whenever a file is deleted it is not going to the trash, what can i do? and it is not updated....
[03:47] <mark__> guys
[03:47] <Bora> tech007: ctrl+s for save?
[03:47] <mark__> i downloaded aMSN from the site, how do i install using terminal?
[03:47] <LetterRip> i'll ask here, someone can redirect me as appropriate - I just upgraded to ibex and it broke both my proprietary drivers i use - the nvidia driver for my Nvidia 7600 Go; and my wireless card driver - using an older kernel doesn't get them back for me
[03:47] <LetterRip> any suggestions
[03:48] <hydrogen> ibex is not supported
[03:48] <hydrogen> at all
[03:48] <tech0007> Bora: ctrl-O then [enter] is save, ctrl-X is exit
[03:48] <IdleOne> !compile > mark__
[03:48] <hydrogen> anywhere
[03:48] <IdleOne> hydrogen, #ubuntu+1
[03:48] <hydrogen> It's not even supported there
[03:48] <norv> WebcamWonder: if it says Layer III, is that good enough, or will it probably have to have to be "Audio file with ID3...
[03:49] <hydrogen> at this point
[03:49] <yoyoned> hydrogen: funny
[03:49] <WebcamWonder> norv: Good enough, ID3 is tagging, basically stores the artist name and stuff
[03:49] <IdleOne> hydrogen, it is sorta kinda but you are pretty much on your own at this point
[03:49] <d0lphin_noel> brb
[03:49] <LetterRip> ok will try there and see if anyone has suggestions...
[03:49] <IdleOne> hydrogen, hence the warning about not running ibex at this point in time
[03:50] <hydrogen> IdleOne: any reason you are telling me this?
[03:50] <LetterRip> i guess it is a bit surprising though that the exact same kernel works in one but not the other
[03:50] <LetterRip> tis rather baffling...
[03:50] <IdleOne> hydrogen, I nassumed you were looking for support for ibex..sorry if I misread
[03:50] <Bora> tech: ok i got output now = driver "i810"
[03:50] <IdleOne> -n
[03:50] <hydrogen> you did.
[03:50] <skeletonejack> Why would I be getting the message:   make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[03:50] <LetterRip> IdleOne, it was me
[03:51] <LetterRip> looking for suggestions not support per say :)
[03:51] <tech0007> Bora: close/save all programs, restart X by 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
