[00:00] <joebodo> mohammed510 that'd be something to read about on wikipedia - journaled file system
[00:00] <Bejeezus> mohammed510: it keeps a journal of all writes to the filesystem so that if the system crashes it can recover without leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent or corrupted state
[00:00] <_PiLoT_> ok that whole two of everything is sorted its just different kernels
[00:00] <_PiLoT_> i have two other problems though
[00:00] <Halitech> harjot, correct

[00:06] <Halitech> Legendaryo, no
[00:06] <TwoToneSpirit> _Pilot_: Is it mounted read-only?  Does the user who is trying to copy files to it have permission to do so?

[00:18] <deco> Halitech: what does that mean?
[00:19] <Flannel> _PiLoT_: Does it say why it's being ignored?  Permissions are wonky perhaps?
[00:19] <Halitech> deco, phpMyAdmin is not the same as phpmyadmin so which way are you typing it in?
[00:19] <_PiLoT_> no it doesnt

[00:21] <progmanos> joebodo, i tried installing it but it fails
[00:22] <deco> Halitech: no , before it gets installed you must have it database for it so it gives you an option to make it for you which i accepted
[00:22] <deco> a database*
[00:23] <progmanos> regardless, installing nvidia-glx-180 automatically pulls in the nvidia-kernel-source package as a dependency

[00:47] <Bejeezus> Does NetworkManager keep a logfile? I would really like to see why my 3G modem is failing to connect.
[00:47] <nellmathew> irivolic: the "proper" way is by installing the flashplugin-nonfree package "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" but after a clean install i usually just installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras which includes a bunch of other things i need, works out perfect (check out add/remove... for details on what is included)
[00:48] <^Phantom^> Is it bad that I inadvertently installed the KDE Desktop Environment?
[00:48] <hoolz> hey guys, im having a problem burning a dvd iso on my ubuntu
[00:48] <hoolz> it wont burn
[00:48] <hoolz> any ideas?
[00:48] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^: you can have multiple desktop environments..
[00:48] <Bejeezus> Installing KDE is always bad.
[00:48] <SnakDoc> jetblast check see if that file exist
[00:48] <^Phantom^> Well, golly.

[00:48] <mohammed510> What is the advantage of the /sys/ directory in the linux file system hirarchy ??
[00:48] <little> Hey there, does anyone know if installing ubuntu-desktop and uninstalling kubuntu-desktop is as good as a fresh install of Ubuntu?
[00:49] <Bejeezus> Paddy_NI: I couldn't resist sorry.
[00:49] <Paddy_NI> :P
[00:49] <magnetron> little: it is.
[00:49] <jetblast> SnakDoc im a little new to terminal commands and ubuntu.  can you help me check?
[00:49] <progmanos> joebodo, i'm just going to reinstall ubuntu
[00:49] <Radtoo> neilv: good. well, I can't speak for the ubuntu team or whatever, but with this many assignees to the bug it would have been seen. But perhaps there's remote exploits or something that needed attention first?
[00:49] <^Phantom^> I thought I was getting the Dolphin gamecube emulator installed
[00:49] <irivolic> nellmathew: ok, just checked and I have that installed but maybe it's not what ff3 is using. How can I check?
[00:49] <^Phantom^> But instead I ended up with a desktop environment :(
[00:49] <SnakDoc> jetblast ls /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_jaunty-updates_main_binary-i386_Packages
[00:49] <mohammed510> Any one can help please ??  What is the advantage of the /sys/ directory in the linux file system hirarchy ??
[00:50] <little> magnetron: Do *all* the KDE files and processes get removed so that it's like a virgin Ubuntu install? I'd like to end up with exactly what I'd end up with if I used the Live CD.
[00:50] <deco> ^Phantom^: Dolphine is a file manager for kde
[00:50] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^: you can just uninstall it, sudo apt-get autoremove kubuntu-desktop
[00:50] <Bejeezus> I've just realised what mohammed510 is doing: homework.
[00:50] <magnetron> ^Phantom^: you can always read the package description prior to installing the package in Synaptic? tends to help
[00:50] <glitsj16> irivolic: enter "about:plugins" in your firefox location bar and check what you have active flash related
[00:50] <neilv> Radtoo: also, it is a big holiday weekend in the u.s. :) unfortunately, my users need a resolution by first thing on monday morning
[00:50] <^Phantom^> I did it through console.
[00:50] <mohammed510> Bejeezus : ha ha ha ha
[00:50] <jetblast> SnakDoc the file does not exist
[00:50] <magnetron> ^Phantom^: you can read it through console
[00:51] <Bejeezus> mohammed510: I wasn't joking, it's kinda obvious.
[00:51] <Radtoo> neilv: I hope you get it, but there's nothing I could do about it? Perhaps you'll have to remove the patches yourself or something as an interim solution.
[00:51] <SnakDoc> jetblast this during a sudo apt-get update or sudo apt-get upgrade ?
[00:51] <irivolic> glitsj16: ok
[00:51] <mohammed510> Bejeezus : After tomorrow I will give some informations about linux ( specially ubuntu ) for some friends
[00:52] <mohammed510> Bejeezus : It is an ubuntu course free of charge
[00:52] <jetblast> SnakDoc i got it when i went to system/package manager.  i also got it during the sudo apt-get check
[00:52] <^Phantom^> Wait, will that remove all of my KDE dependencies though?
[00:52] <^Phantom^> Woah, it will...
[00:52] <Bejeezus> mohammed510: kudos, good luck.
[00:52] <tuxFan> can someone tell me where " package-manager" its located,,  I mean linux dir
[00:52] <Um_cara_qualquer> anyone knows why when i start transmission (even if it isn't downloading anything) the net get extremely slow?
[00:52] <neilv> Radtoo: they will just have to go with apache upstream. they are not happy with that idea, especially since the point of ubuntu lts was to have a stable self-contained platform.
[00:52] <nellmathew> irivolic: if you have noscript you might have to "allow" the site (since javascript is blocked).. in firefox "Preferences/Applications" might also give you some answers..
[00:52] <mohammed510> Bejeezus : So , you can say that I am trying to do some nice work for this course
[00:53] <SnakDoc> jetblast i have the file not sure if i could just upload and you could use it or not
[00:53] <irivolic> nellmathew: seems that the plugin I'm using is: /usr/lib/swfdec-mozilla/libswfdecmozilla.so I'm not sure if this is the one from the package (I might have installed from another location too)
[00:53] <^Phantom^> Why can't I get Dolphin (the gamecube emulator) to run?
[00:53] <mohammed510> What is the advantage of the /sys/ directory in the linux file system hirarchy ?? any one knows ??
[00:53] <jetblast> SnakDoc the error pops up when i try to sudo apt-get upgrade
[00:53] <ross_> Apple Isight webcam + ubuntu pc any ideas?
[00:53] <mohammed510> Bejeezus : Where are you from?
[00:53] <jetblast> SnakDoc ill try anything you recommend
[00:54] <nellmathew> irivolic: no that's not the adobe plugin.. you can either change it, or do sudo apt-get autoremove swfdec ,
[00:55] <nellmathew> irivolic: and it'll go back to adobe's by default..
[00:55] <Radtoo> neilv: Dunno if "they" are the only ones that think this way. About all major distros ship apache with patches at times, from my experience.
[00:55] <SnakDoc> jetblast any certian place you like it sent ?
[00:55] <^Phantom^> Is having this Dolphin file browser gonna mess up ubuntu the next time I boot up?
[00:55] <hipitihop> my update manager this morning claimed to not be able to comptete updates and suggested a partial upgrade ?
[00:55] <ProfessorX> I close my screens, how do I open them back up?
[00:56] <jetblast> SnakDoc doesnt matter..how do you plan on sending it? you can do a file transfer on here
[00:56] <fosa> where is the desktop background picture/path stored?
[00:56] <Um_cara_qualquer> anyone knows why when i start transmission (even if it isn't downloading anything) the net get extremely slow?
[00:56] <ProfessorX> !screen
[00:56] <nellmathew> irivolic: sorry it's : sudo apt-get autoremove swfdec-mozlla
[00:56] <neilv> Radtoo: normally, we appreciate the patches. unfortunately, they're broken in this case, and we might *have* to use upstream, for the sake of avoiding our server being taken down by a runaway cgi :)
[00:57] <neilv> or i should say, they appear to be broken. debugging hasn't happened yet
[00:57] <^Phantom^> Is having this Dolphin file browser gonna mess up ubuntu the next time I boot up?
[00:57] <hipitihop> can someone please confirm a dist upgrade is normal behaviour this morning ?
[00:57] <irivolic> nellmathew: thanks
[00:58] <irivolic> nellmathew: autoremove for that package is removing a bunch of other packages too though
[00:58] <^Phantom^> Guys I'm really worried now.
[00:58] <irivolic> nellmathew: these:   dbus-c++-1 libccrtp1-1.6-0 libcommoncpp2-1.6-0 libcppunit-1.12-0 libswfdec-0.6-90 libxalan110 libxerces27 swfdec-mozilla
[00:58] <nellmathew> irivolic: shouldn't be an issue, guessing no other packages need those packages (they were only used by swfdec)
[00:59] <BunnyG> wut was the command to get ubuntus restricted extras?
[00:59] <jetblast> Snakdoc it wont let me download from you
[00:59] <threeseas> changed monitors and couldn't get ubuntu to recognize the resolutions of the monitor biut figured that out and set them in xorg.conf but then couldn't get it to boot/login to teh resolution I wanted... until I figured out teh the online example I found for setting preferred mode was spelt the wrong way.
[00:59] <nellmathew> BunnyG: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:59] <iceroot> BunnyG: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:59] <iceroot> nellmathew: to slow :)
[00:59] <BunnyG> much love
[00:59] <jetblast> Snakdoc i get an error no such file or directory (when the directory is there)
[00:59] <nellmathew> lol :P
[00:59] <irivolic> nellmathew: ok thanks
[00:59] <nellmathew> irivolic: you're welcome
[01:00] <SnakDoc> jetblast just dl to desktop for moment
[01:00] <iceroot> can i install ubuntu on a pc, put the hdd in another pc and its working? (correct drivers, correct resolution and so on)?
[01:00] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^: you don't want any KDE applications at all right?
[01:00] <Radtoo> neilv: Right. Good catch. And the bug report might help other users / organizations who might have problems. But until you know if it will be fixed I think you're best off just fixing it yourself (you know how to create a .deb?) so you don't have to rely on anyone. :D
[01:00] <^Phantom^> I just want to get rid of the one I just installed.
[01:00] <^Phantom^> Hang on i'll paste the command I used
[01:01] <neilv> Radtoo: well, there goes my weekend, debugging patches made by others :)

[01:01] <knasto> Hello, i plugged in a linksys router to my ubuntu laptop, Does anyone know how I access the settings?
[01:02] <ProfessorX> How do I reattach my screens? screen -r doesn't work.
[01:02] <Graviton> screen -D -RR would forcably detach and reattach
[01:02] <^Phantom^> I mean.
[01:02] <Bejeezus> or screen -x to have it attached in multiple places
[01:03] <ProfessorX> does it reattach all the screens?
[01:03] <Graviton> forcibly*
[01:03] <harjot> plz read and help me on the forums

[01:03] <harjot> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203766
[01:03] <Radtoo> neilv: Thats even better than just dropping the patches and doing a vanilla .deb. If you can find the exact problem that's likely very useful, eh. :)
[01:03] <Graviton> ProfessorX: No, just the first one, as I recall
[01:03] <Bejeezus> if you have multiple instances of screen running you need to specify which you want it to attach or it'll attach the most recent
[01:03] <^Phantom^> Will my desktop look and function the same after I did that command?
[01:04] <^Phantom^> Like, after I reboot
[01:04] <^Phantom^> sudo apt-get install subversion scons g++ wx2.8-headers libwxbase2.8-0 libwxbase2.8-dbg libwxbase2.8-dev libwxgtk2.8-0 libwxgtk2.8-dbg libwxgtk2.8-dev libsdl1.2-dev nvidia-cg-toolkit libxxf86vm1-dbg libxxf86vm-dev libxext6-dbg libxext-dev libglew1.5-dev libcairo2-dbg libcairo2-dev libao2 libao-dev libbluetooth-dev && svn checkout http://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ dolphin-emu-read-only && cd dolphin-emu-read-only && scons
[01:04] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^: yeah it should
[01:04] <Bejeezus> most of the time you don't need more than one instance of screen, but if you do it's helpful to give them names using the -s switch
[01:04] <Bejeezus> not -s
[01:04] <Bejeezus> -t
[01:05] <^Phantom^> Okay.
[01:05] <knasto> can someone help me access the settings on my linksys router? like what do i type in to my browser? <IP_ADDRESS> doesnt work
[01:05] <SageX> I was wondering how to hear my input sounds through alsa?
[01:05] <^Phantom^> Now, here's my problem.  How do I CORRECTLY install that Emulator?
[01:05] <ProfessorX> Bejeezuz, how do I speficy which screen to reattach?
[01:06] <ProfessorX> I have 3 screens running.
[01:06] <Radtoo> neilv: But if you do it it might take a moment for the patch to be verified (anyone could introduce vulnerabilities or problems into apache otherwise) so caluculate in the time for doing your own .deb.
[01:06] <ProfessorX> And I close all the screens by closing the terminals.
[01:06] <Quagmire> screen -r i think
[01:06] <Quagmire> screen -ls
[01:06] <neilv> Radtoo: i won't do my own .deb.  i will move to upstream if we can't wait for an official security update
[01:07] <Radtoo> neilv: ehm... yes, your .deb with upstream apache was what I thought?
[01:07] <harjot> PLEASE HELP ME AT : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203766

[01:07] <UberTaco> hey people,
[01:07] <UberTaco> why does Ubuntu, even at 9.04, still make it so hard to ping LAN computers by hostname?
[01:08] <Bejeezus> UberTaco: what's hard about it
[01:08] <knasto> like it says auto eth0 but how do I access the screen?
[01:08] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^: http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/wiki/Linux_dependencies - check if your version of scons is > 0.98 also like they suggest (if you have issues with it).. and check the command to run it also..
[01:08] <ProfessorX> I don't understand this line when I try to screen -r. The line is "Type "screen [-d] -r [pid.]tty.host" to resume one of them."
[01:09] <neilv> Radtoo: it is un-nice. but we really don't want the headache of custom .debs and are not set up to deploy that any better than a .tgz
[01:09] <Bejeezus> ProfessorX: things in [square brackets] are optional
[01:09] <Quagmire> ProfessorX: first do a screen -ls that will make a list. copy&paste the one you need
[01:09] <Bejeezus> and pid means process id, it's a way of identifying processes that don't have names
[01:09] <Quagmire> :)

[01:09] <Dr_Willis> ProfessorX:  there are numerous screen 'tutorials/guides' out there. :) its a progrm worth  researcing/reading about.
[01:10] <irivolic> even though I've defined in /etc/fstab to mount the windows drive with utf8 support it doesn't mount it as such and I have to unmount and remount it manually with utf8, why is that?
[01:10] <Dr_Willis> irivolic:  manually as in using 'sudo umount /media/windowsdrive'
[01:10] <Dr_Willis> irivolic:  or how exactly?
[01:10] <knasto> Gravito, thanx i got it
[01:10] <ProfessorX> When I do screen -ls This is what I get

[01:11] <Dr_Willis> ProfessorX:  you got 3+ screen sessions going it seems
[01:11] <ProfessorX> Yeah, how do I load up the first screen I'm running.
[01:11] <UberTaco> Bejeezus: I have never on a fresh install been able to simply ping a LAN box by hostname
[01:11] <UberTaco> and now hostname.local doesn't work
[01:11] <irivolic> Dr_Willis: right
[01:11] <Quagmire> screen -r 23825.pts-8.xx-xx-xxx-xx
[01:11] <Dr_Willis> ProfessorX:  reading a 'screen' tutorial - would be a very very very good idea.
[01:12] <Quagmire> yep. screen is awesome
[01:12] <Dr_Willis> irivolic:  thats - weird.
[01:12] <UberTaco> Bejeezus: always have to go hunt down arcane tutorials
[01:12]  * Dr_Willis adds a few more verys to his suggestion.
[01:12] <Dr_Willis> UberTaco:  screen is a powerfull program.. you are NOT going to learn all about it by asking basic screen questions answered on 'page 1 chapter 1 of most every screen tutorial'
[01:13] <irivolic> Dr_Willis: yeah
[01:13] <UberTaco> Dr_Willis: erm, wrong target? heheh.
[01:13] <^Phantom^> nellmathew:  I'm quite confused
[01:13] <Radtoo> neilv: ubuntu is open source. you have access to the rules file of apache and such. Might just comment out / delete the patch specific stuff from ubuntus sources and just do your deb with that.
[01:13] <irivolic> Dr_Willis: no idea why it's always mounting it on boot without the utf8 option
[01:14] <Dr_Willis> UberTaco:  oh you were adressing Bejeezus  :) i thoug you said it as in    using a 'adajative' :)
[01:14] <UberTaco> Dr_Willis: heheheh
[01:14] <Adola> I've got a 2 ubuntu machines, when I try to acess my laptop via fileshare, in samba networks, It just says "timeout on server adam-laptop" I can't even see "adam-desktop" from "adam-laptop"
[01:14] <harjot> good noight people
[01:14] <^Phantom^> I tried to work TuxCube but it won't let me 'make' the stupid thing
[01:14] <Dr_Willis> UberTaco: had someone in here with the nick of 'Incorrect' - that really caused confusioins.
[01:15] <Radtoo> neilv: but all is at your own discretion. if you prefer make install or whatever apache uses at this point, go ahead. it just won't be managed the same way everything else is, which - in my experience - is a pain and why most any distribution out there uses a package manager to track files.
[01:15] <ProfessorX> When I do screen -r 23825.pts-8.xx-xx-xxx-xx, my previous screen does not load up. All it does is open a new screen.

[01:20] <iceroot> is it legal to sell pcs, installed with ubuntu AND ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[01:21] <Flannel> SiCreToR: You deleted the entry for the old kernel, or you removed the old kernel itself?

[01:21] <Quagmire> it works , screen -r 1
[01:21] <Dulak> iceroot: not in the US, leave out restricted extras, and add either a link to a page that tells how to enable it, or a text file with instructions
[01:21] <linxeh> maybe I have an older screen then

[01:21] <Flannel> SiCreToR: Alright, the following command should replace it then: sudo update-grub

[01:22] <linxeh> Dr_Willis: I'm on 4.00.03 though
[01:22] <Dr_Willis> linxeh:  i tend to use 'terminator' instead of screen on X these days.. :)

[01:24] <LasBSD> is it the -o= option in apt-get?

[01:26] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  xterm -fn SOMEFONTINFO
[01:26] <linxeh> EaxEE: google for .Xdefaults (or xterm -fn)
[01:26] <Cyzward> thanks so much

[01:26]  * CommanderB : Zack's Script
[01:27] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: That's temporary, but thanks :)

[01:27] <Flannel> !test
[01:27] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  err.. of course it is...
[01:27] <EaxEE> linxeh: thanks , tried but couldn't find anything..
[01:27] <th0r> EaxEE: create an alias with that line
[01:27] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:   thats what the .Xdefaults configs are for i recall.
[01:27] <Flannel> CommanderB: Please turn that off
[01:27]  * LasBSD sighs
[01:27] <CommanderB>  ..:  turn what off  :..
[01:28] <iceroot> CommanderB: scripts
[01:28] <linxeh> EaxEE: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=xdefaults%20xterm%20font&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
[01:28] <CommanderB>  ..:  lol  :..
[01:28] <Flannel> CommanderB: When you joined, we were all told that you were running Zack's script
[01:28] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Yup :) Just trying to figure out WHAT to write.. Using "xterm*font: terminus" didn't work
[01:28] <Dr_Willis> I got a dozen 'xterm' alias's for difffent fonts/colors/so forth
[01:28] <^Phantom^> tl;dr TuxCube still won't make
[01:28] <Flannel> CommanderB: Also, turn off the decoration stuff, that just makes it difficult to read
[01:28] <linxeh> EaxEE: clearly you didnt...
[01:28] <linxeh> EaxEE: USE GOOGLE
[01:28] <linxeh> sigh
[01:28] <Dr_Willis> xterm -bg black -fg gray -fn -xos4-terminus-bold-r-normal--14-140-72-72-c-80-iso8859-1   uses the terminus font here for me...
[01:28] <EaxEE> linxeh: I did. Clearly I didn't use it right.
[01:28] <Cyzward> can someone also help me with wifi setup?
[01:29]  * LasBSD wants to know hnow to install a package to her USB drive
[01:29] <linxeh> EaxEE: clearly.
[01:29] <Flannel> linxeh: Please don't do that.
[01:29] <LasBSD> easy peasy i'm sure
[01:29] <CommanderB>  ..:  there hows thaty  :..
[01:29] <CommanderB>  ..:  damn  :..
[01:29] <Dr_Willis> you can get the -fn *INFO* by using some tool.. i cant recall. xfontsel perhaps?
[01:29] <linxeh> Flannel: sorry, I've had a night of non-googlers on another channel - I'll restrain myself
[01:29] <CommanderB>  ..:  brb  :..
[01:29] <sagaci> so how do i go out upgrading to firefox 3.5, i've tried to install it via synaptic but firefox remains on 3.0.11
[01:29] <sevenseeker> ok, so I am desperately trying to update the sox package to the latest version... I can't find it with grep, but the old version is 'somewhere' in the old deb-src package
[01:29] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Thanks :D Trying :)
[01:29] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  yea 'xfontsel' can let you browse the proper font 'definitions
[01:29] <sevenseeker> 7:28 PM
[01:29] <sevenseeker> J_Darnley<EMAIL_ADDRESS>entered the room.
[01:29] <iceroot> sagaci: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
[01:30] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  thats an 'old skool' app - there may be newer alterantives
[01:30] <iceroot> sagaci: for jaunty
[01:30] <sevenseeker> sevenseeker
[01:30] <sevenseeker> 7:28:05 PM
[01:30] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Great thanks ^^ F*ck newer alternatives if it works :P
[01:30] <sevenseeker> whoever made this package is cruel
[01:30] <sevenseeker> 7:28:47 PM
[01:30] <sevenseeker> This package has a Debian revision number but there does not seem to be
[01:30] <FloodBot2> sevenseeker: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:30] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^: try, sudo apt-get install libsdl-image1.2-dev if that doesn't work i'm not too sure
[01:30] <CommanderB> happy now?
[01:30] <SiCreToR> I have a problem i thought that running ubuntu with an older kernel would help. I lost the sound from my laptop i think withought a reason.It used to work correctly and today my ubuntu started withought sound.I have an Intel HD Audio Controller
[01:30] <Flannel> linxeh: Your restraint is much appreciated.  There's good reasons not to behave like that, and if you're curious why that's a policy, I'd be happy to share
[01:30] <^Phantom^> nellmathew:  I also downloaded this version of the Dolphin gamecube emulator:  http://www.dolphin-emu.com/downloads.php?cat_id=2&download_id=77
[01:30] <Flannel> CommanderB: Very much so, thank you.
[01:31] <Erealz> hey
[01:31] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  e Yea the way X uses fonts 'originally' is somewhat..  verbose/strange in ways.. :) this was befor Truetype fonts
[01:31] <sagaci> thanks, it worked
[01:31] <^Phantom^> nellmathew:  However, I can't get it to work.   It's probably something fairly simple like a routing issue or something...  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203376
[01:31] <iceroot> sagaci: but i am correct the version from the repos is still beta
[01:32] <CommanderB> now i have an issue with ubuntu - my wireless internet connects and works fine, but when i try to connect through a wired network - the network manager will say its connected and all the settings are correct, but none of the internet apps will be able to use the connection
[01:32] <wWales> if im in the wrong channel please redirect, but -how- do i stop the fh smp client from running on my system? :/
[01:32] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  i forget... :) thats from an alias ive had in my bin dir for ages...
[01:32] <sevenseeker> how can I track down who made the sox package? the control file?  (Pascal Giard)
[01:32] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  it may be a typo.. or some other font info heh
[01:32] <Cyzward> Does anybody how to get wifi to work on ubuntu?
[01:32] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Fair :) Thanks a lot for the help ^^ Very useful :)
[01:33] <^Phantom^> If anyone can get this to work:  http://www.dolphin-emu.com/downloads.php?cat_id=2&download_id=77  please let me know what you did thankies
[01:33] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  i tend to just use the -fn 10x20 type info
[01:33] <linxeh> Flannel: I can appreciate why that is policy; Ive been on the end of it in the past :)
[01:33] <Pici> sevenseeker: apt-cache show sox    should show you who the package maintainer is.
[01:33] <Cyzward> can someone help me with wifi?
[01:33] <linxeh> Flannel: apologies once again
[01:33] <CommanderB> cyzward
[01:33] <CommanderB> can you be more specific?
[01:33] <Cyzward> I am currently using ethernet
[01:33] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^: http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/wiki/Linux_dependencies - read the 2nd comment.. make sure the scons version is as they require (over 0.98 - check in synaptic), if it isn't then download the 1.1.0 package and run the command to install it..
[01:33] <deco> i just noticed that i see my websites in my apache www folder from another computer via my ip is this safe?
[01:33] <Cyzward> I have to set up a wireelss connection
[01:33] <Pici> sevenseeker: in this case, it looks like the MOTU, you could try asking in #ubuntu-motu if you have a question about the packaging of the package
[01:33] <Flannel> linxeh: Oh, it's no problem.  We all get frustrated at times.  And I only offered to explain because some people don't see the point
[01:33] <Cyzward> but I don't know how to do that
[01:33] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  http://www.tummy.com/journals/entries/jafo_20050120_180533   is worth reading to learn about the .Xdefaults settings for xterm
[01:33] <wWales> Cyzward: it usually "just works" for me, but sometimes it doesnt, ive found it to be bit wonky, but disabling/enabling wireless from your networkmanager sometimes lets me connect
[01:34] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^ make sure you have all the "required packages" installed from "details"
[01:34] <CommanderB> huh - i cant get ethernet working
[01:34] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: What does that do? :) Also, I know that I have terminus, since I can -fb terminus but when it's in the .Xdefaults file it says: "xterm: Cannot load font terminus" :S
[01:34] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Thanks :D
[01:34] <Cyzward> I don't even have wifi options
[01:34] <Cyzward> I have to change VPN first
[01:34] <CommanderB> is the driver available?
[01:34] <nicklas_> yo
[01:34] <Cyzward> yes
[01:34] <zsquareplusc> on which channel can i get help on creating deb packages for ubuntu?
[01:34] <CommanderB> or even loaded...
[01:34] <deco> i just noticed that i see my websites in my apache www folder from another computer via my ip is this safe?
[01:34] <Flannel> zsquareplusc: #ubuntu-motu
[01:35] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:   I recall the terminus font homepage/docs mentioning how to use it.. personally i dont like terminus font much.
[01:35] <Cyzward> wow
[01:35] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Okay thanks :) Why not?
[01:35] <^Phantom^> ./Dolphin: error while loading shared libraries: libbluetooth.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:35] <CommanderB> theres a propriatory driver section - inwhich it wont load propriatory drivers, unless you specify
[01:36] <acu> I move a computer from a lower resolution monitor (1024X768) to a high def monitor 1920 X1080  - however the computer does not show the x with the exception of an one inch bar at the top of the new screen - I tried dpkg-reconfgure xserver-xorg but it does not work - can anyone direct what to do
[01:36] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  try -fn ' -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-cp1251' perhaps?
[01:36] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Okay thanks :) Hmm cp1251=
[01:36] <EaxEE> *?
[01:36] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  im just trying examples ive googled. :)
[01:36] <Flannel> deco: Yes.  That's what its designed to do.  If you have stuff you don't want people to see, don't put it there.  OR if you just want that stuff to be available locally (from your computer only) you can tweak apache to do that too
[01:37] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Fair :P
[01:37] <^Phantom^> wait, scons will REPLACE make?
[01:37] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  you did INstall both terminus fonts? one for console.. one for X? -->  $ sudo apt-get install console-terminus xfonts-terminus
[01:37] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Nope :/
[01:37] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^ no it's a replacement... some people still use it, you can have both.
[01:38] <^Phantom^> Oh okay.
[01:38] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: The nope was for that it didn't work >_< Installing them now :)
[01:38] <^Phantom^> Well, I am trying to do too much at once I think
[01:38] <deco> Flannel: oh ok but will this be crawled by google?
[01:38] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Both is newest version Oo
[01:38] <fenrrir> hi, my jaunty is very slow on dvd burning [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/31709]. how to solve this?
[01:39] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/terminus-font-vs-monospace-vs-vera-sans-mono-445169/   has some .Xdefaults to get terminus as the default
[01:39] <Adola> I need to share NFS via samba...
[01:39] <Adola> How can I do such?
[01:39] <^Phantom^> nellmathew: When I try to run dolphin from that 2MB zip I downloaded, I get this:  ./Dolphin: error while loading shared libraries: libbluetooth.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:39] <Flannel> deco: It's accessible inside the LAN, but unless you do port forwarding on your router, not outside (in most network setups) so, not likely.
[01:39] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Great thanks :D
[01:40] <deco> Flannel: oh hehe no wonder, i was using a pc that is on my lan
[01:40] <deco> Flannel:  i was scared that anybody could see it
[01:40] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^: I'm really not familiar with dolphin or tuxcube, but personally I would try to install packages libbluetooth and libbluetooth-dev and try again
[01:40] <^Phantom^> okay
[01:41] <^Phantom^> Even though I don't have bluetooth?
[01:41]  * Brad_R is installing ubuntu "inside windows"
[01:41] <nellmathew> ^Phantom^ if the program requires the packages then yes.
[01:41] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  not that i can get xterm to use a terminus font yet... but... :) its docs to read at least.. make a .Xresources edit it.. use xrdb -load .Xresources  try running 'xterm' and see if it changes
[01:42] <^Phantom^> Okay
[01:42] <deco> Flannel: for example vsftp allows computers to login that are not from the lan right?
[01:42] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  -->  The available font sizes seen with "xlsfonts | grep terminus".
[01:42] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Okay thanks a lot :D
[01:42] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  and that shows nothing for me lol.!
[01:42] <Flannel> deco: Again, only if you set up your router to forward
[01:42] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  heh - perhaps i need to reload the font cache or somthing.. does it work for you?
[01:42] <ElPato> Can anyone help me access my virtual server? It's probably something fairly simple like a routing or forwarding issue or something... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1203376
[01:42] <^Phantom^> i've never actually found this "synaptic package mananger"  ...  where is it?
[01:43] <deco> Flannel: how would i do that?
[01:43] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: I get a long list :P How do I reload it? :)
[01:43] <ElPato> Or maybe my gateway is wrong
[01:43] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  for the terminus font - :) good.. i must of not had the X font installed.. so i got none at this time..
[01:43] <fuzzybunny69y> hey everyone does anyone know how i would turn off the gnome-panel so that it doesn't automatically load?
[01:43] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Yeah :) trying the xresources thingy now :)
[01:44] <Bejeezus> woo
[01:44] <^Phantom^> Oh there it is
[01:44] <deco> fuzzybunny69y: rightclick on it and than delete this panel
[01:44] <^Phantom^> nellmathew: apparently I already have the bluetooth stuff installed...
[01:44] <Bejeezus> After days of searching I've finally found a solution to my mobile broadband problem.
[01:44] <fuzzybunny69y> deco, it is greyed out because i only have one panel active
[01:45] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE: the way the X fonts work is some sort of server/cached stuff.. so some times it dont see new fonts you install.. untoll you run some command tht i forget.. or logout/back in :)
[01:45] <deco> fuzzybunny69y: so you don't want a panel at all?
[01:45] <Bejeezus> It seems that even though my provider doesn't require a username and password, NetworkManager won't connect without them. So the solution is just to put nonsense values in the respective fields and it connects.
[01:45] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Yay! It works! Now to get it to use a smaller size >_< But thanks a bunch :D Your help is really really appreciated ^_^
[01:46] <fuzzybunny69y> deco, yeah I want to turn it off so it doesn't load at all
[01:46] <deco> fuzzybunny69y: than use a deferent window manager like fluxbox
[01:46] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  i cant get it working here. .:) lol  - i may need to log out/in.. but i always use terminator these days anyway
[01:46] <Flannel> deco: Is this just for your own usage?
[01:47] <deco> Flannel: yeah
[01:47] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  theres also a way to set the console to use that terminus font by default
[01:47] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Fair xD But it works flawlessly here ^^ Just using size 12 :) What do you mean?
[01:47] <Flannel> deco: It's actually easier to set up sftp then, instead of normal ftp.  fewer ports to deal with, and youre more secure.
[01:47] <Bejeezus> terminus is a gorgeous font, i use it wherever i can get away with it
[01:47] <ElPato> How can I know what causes a "Destination Host Unreachable" ?
[01:47] <Bejeezus> urxvt*font: xft:Terminus
[01:47] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Like an alias?
[01:47] <deco> Flannel: oh but can any client connect to it?
[01:48] <EaxEE> Bejeezus: xft? :)
[01:48] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  its aways saying terminus font not found.. i just installed it.. so that may be my issue
[01:48] <Dr_Willis> urxvt -fn Termius
[01:48] <Dr_Willis> urxvt: unable to load base fontset, please specify a valid one using -fn, aborting.
[01:48]  * Dr_Willis checks his spelling
[01:48] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Weird Oo I just made it as the .Xresources then it worked :)
[01:49] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: eax.dk/eax_terminus.png
[01:49] <Bejeezus> Can you edit the title of a thread you started on ubuntuforums
[01:49] <zamnedix1> Ok so I have 2 machines. This one, I'm running live disc because I flushed all the iptables on my Jaunty and now it's internet doesn't work. How do I fix it?
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  so whats your .Xresources line? or pastebin the whole thing.
[01:52] <Flannel> deco: Pretty much.  I don't know of any FTP clients that won't also do SFTP, to the end user (you) its identical
[01:52] <Bejeezus> EaxEE: are you an xmonad user
[01:53] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: http://pastebin.com/m26d36d64
[01:53] <deco> Flannel: oh so what's importent is that the host be setup with sftp right?
[01:53] <EaxEE> Bejeezus: Yup:) Newly converted
[01:53] <Flannel> deco: Right, and it's trivial to do: sudo apt-get install openssh-server and you're done.  Just port forward your ssh port on your router (thats 22 by default, and you can change it)
[01:53] <Guest44982> hello
[01:54] <jesused> hello
[01:54] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  got it. :) had to restart the X session to see the new fonts.. err... i recall WHY i dont use terminus..  I find it Ugly with a Capital U.
[01:54] <jesused> sorry im im probblems
[01:54] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Fair :P That's a matter of taste ;) What do you use instead?
[01:54] <jesused> i cant start the x in ubuntu karmic
[01:54] <jesused> in my laptop, after upgrade
[01:54] <deco> Flannel: oh than i think i also port forwared my router than in vsftp before because i remember i enabled port 22 in its config file so that ment anybody could login righ?
[01:55] <jesused> ?
[01:55] <jesused> hmmm
[01:55] <EaxEE> Bejeezus: I'm learning it so that I can use it on my multi-monitor setup ^^
[01:55] <jesused> any help please???
[01:55] <Dr_Willis> Doh.. i logged out of my vnc session.. and it loged me out of my actual X session also. :)
[01:55] <Dr_Willis> ahh.. terminus looks MUCH better on a normal X desktop. instead of in the vnc dekstop
[01:56] <Flannel> deco: Alright, then you may already be set up to do ftp
[01:56] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: XD Fair :P
[01:56] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: I really wouldn't know :P
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> EaxEE:  i tend to use bitstream vera sans mono roman in my Terminator windows..
[01:56] <ElPato> Can anyone help me bridge two networks?
[01:56] <deco> Flannel: oh i thought i actually had to mess around with my router so just enabling port 22 etc.. is enough to forward a router right?
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> well EaxEE  good luck. I will be back laters.
[01:56] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Okay :) Never really could get terminator to work could I >_<
[01:57] <Bejeezus> I feel so happy, I'm finally installing UNR on my netbook!

[02:03] <Flannel> Cotton, Bejeezus https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Standard%20installation
[02:03] <fosa> thanks Interphase
[02:03] <Flannel> That includes instructions on burning an ISO (and software)
[02:03] <EaxEE> Dr_Willis: Thanks a lot for the help : Everything works now ^^ Have a nice evening/day/morning/fourthperoidoftheday :P Thanks a lot ^^
[02:03] <Cotton> thanks flannel!
[02:03] <pagefault> brb
[02:03] <Bejeezus> Flannel: I thought I remembered a page like that existing, just couldn't remember where.
[02:04] <fosa> Interphase, which file ir?nthat di
[02:04] <Interphase> fosa, all of them
[02:04] <Cotton> sorry mr_spot_  idk what people can do with my ip address and I would rather just leave it alone anyways and move on.  Thanks for everyone being so kind here.
[02:04] <Interphase> fosa, are you looking to write your own script?
[02:04] <fosa> Interphase, yeah
[02:05] <bastidrazor>  how do i delete a user?
[02:05] <Bejeezus> userdel
[02:05] <quidnunc> Is there a way to make firefox-3.5 default? Something like update-alternatives?
[02:06] <kbrosnan> system > prefs > default app
[02:06] <kbrosnan> perfered app
[02:06] <Flannel> quidnunc: update-alternatives should be able to, yes.
[02:06] <bastidrazor> Bejeezus, thanks
[02:06] <linuxguy2009> What do most people use for external hard drive file systems?
[02:06] <linuxguy2009> for linux use
[02:07] <deco> linuxguy2009: ext3
[02:07] <Bejeezus> If I had one I guess I would use ext3.
[02:07] <mr_spot_> cotton: fair enough, some places are just full of jerks :(
[02:07] <Cotton> thanks mr spot
[02:08] <quidnunc> Flannel: I don't see it.
[02:08] <SnakDoc> linuxguy2009 i say ext3 cause 4 is not support by older kernels
[02:08] <EaxEE> Night everyone ^_^
[02:08] <quidnunc> Flannel: update-alternatives --config firefox doesn't work
[02:08] <Flannel> quidnunc: x-www-browser
[02:08] <linuxguy2009> deco: I used to have it formatted to ext3 and I almost always had to use "gksudo nautilus" to do anything with it every time I used it. Is there a way to totally disable or remove permissions of files that are put on it so i dont have to use sudo?
[02:08] <Bejeezus> chmod -R 777
[02:09] <Bejeezus> or chown it to your user
[02:09] <deco> linuxguy2009: what Bejeezus  said
[02:09] <linuxguy2009> Yeah i figured. I got so tired of doing that before. Every darn time.
[02:09] <pmarchwiak> I'm having some issues with connecting to my company's VPN using NetworkManager. I can only access internal sites but nothing external. Can anyone give me some advice?
[02:09] <Interphase> fosa, write your script and save it there as (yournamehere).sh
[02:10] <quidnunc> Flannel: Thanks, that helps. But firefox still links to firefox-3.0
[02:10] <fosa> Interphase, do i need to chmod it to something?
[02:10] <Interphase> yes
[02:10] <Dr_Willis> linuxguy2009:  that can be an issue with moving linux filesystems about. :) user id's can change and goof up ownership.
[02:10] <Interphase> you will also need to do 'update -rc (yournamehere).sh defaults'
[02:10] <Interphase> that is what actually makes it run on startup
[02:11] <deco> Dr_Willis: ah yes hehe it will be a nightmare if he tries to use it on a different pc
[02:11] <Interphase> no wait 'update-rc.d'
[02:11] <fosa> Interphase, thanks ^^
[02:11] <linuxguy2009> Whats this reiserfs file system in gparted?
[02:11] <linuxguy2009> That any good?
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> deco:  Been there.. done that.. had to teach several people at work what was going on.
[02:11] <Bejeezus> well the guy who wrote it is in prison for murdering his wife so...
[02:11] <razerblk> is there a dvd to mp4 converter for ubuntu ?
[02:11] <Scunizi> linuxguy2009: I like it for sata drives.. but it's not readable by windows if that makes a difference
[02:11] <fosa> Interphase, so, 'update-rc.d fosa.sh defaults' ?
[02:11] <Interphase> correct
[02:11] <Interphase> sudo
[02:11] <deco> linuxguy2009: the filesystem type doesn't matter it's ownership
[02:11] <linuxguy2009> razerblk: handbrake rules!
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> razerblk:  there are 'dvd rip' ing tools yes.
[02:12] <muzik> razerblk: vlc media player
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> !info dvdrip
[02:12] <Interphase> sudo update-rc.d fosa.sh defaults
[02:12] <razerblk> thank you so so much !
[02:12] <fosa> Interphase,  and, sudo chmod 755 file.sh ?
[02:12] <Interphase> fosa, yes
[02:13] <linuxguy2009> Ok Ill just make fat32 friendly file names I suppose.
[02:13]  * SCEA <3 you all
[02:13] <fosa> Interphase, thanks :)
[02:13] <muzik> razerblk: sure.  it also plays nearly every type of bid
[02:13] <Interphase> reboot and tell me if it works
[02:13] <Batmanifestdesti> is it possible to get a free CD for the absolute minimum installation?
[02:14] <Interphase> Batmanifestdesti, you could try this: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/
[02:14] <Batmanifestdesti> this is, of course, assuming people can see my message through the flood of room entering and leaving ><
[02:14] <Batmanifestdesti> I don't want DSL
[02:14] <Batmanifestdesti> I want Ubuntu, but only with the terminal
[02:14] <SCEA> bat, you could remaster the iso
[02:15] <Batmanifestdesti> so that I can put IceWM on it
[02:15] <Batmanifestdesti> but still use sudo, since I like that format
[02:15] <mr_spot_> cotton: want to try that again? i couldn't see anything
[02:15] <Interphase> LOL Batmanifestdesti, just use debian
[02:15] <Batmanifestdesti> is there a way to get absolute minimum as a free CD?
[02:15] <muzik> batmanifest: there is a program in synaptic that allows you to custom make an ubuntu cd
[02:15] <Batmanifestdesti> oh
[02:16]  * SCEA loves muzik
[02:16] <Batmanifestdesti> I only have 1 6GB hard drive available for Linux ><
[02:16] <SCEA> bat, i use linux from my 512mb thumbdrive
[02:16] <Batmanifestdesti> hm....I could do that
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> I got a 4gb flashdrive  with ubuntu in persistant save mode...
[02:16] <Batmanifestdesti> but then I would have to murder my puppy Linux
[02:17] <Dr_Willis> I could put puppy alongside ubuntu on that flash drive if i wanted.
[02:17] <Batmanifestdesti> cool
[02:17] <Batmanifestdesti> but then I would be torn between Puppy and Ubuntu XD
[02:17] <muzik> Batmanifestdestl: ubuntu is only 600meg.  It cab easily fit your space.
[02:17] <Batmanifestdesti> wait....is there a way to get Ubuntu onto the thumbdrive and ahve persstence?
[02:17] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  if my hardware can handle it.. i use Ubuntu.. if it is the old box's i use puppy.
[02:18] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  yes.. you can do a persistatn live-cd type setup on a flashdrive
[02:18] <Batmanifestdesti> ok
[02:18]  * SCEA is watching 'Bleach - Episode 226'
[02:18] <Batmanifestdesti> I might do that, because .pup files for good software are few and far between
[02:18] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  theres can be some quirks.. but its doable.. even doable from windows. following the pendrivelinux.org docs. (that works better for me then the usb-disk tool In ubuntu)
[02:19] <Batmanifestdesti> everyone seems to only make stuff for Ubuntu or Redhat, with the occasional Arch
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  depends on the apps. :)
[02:19]  * Batmanifestdesti had to do some web-digging to find a pup package for Wine
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  im in #puppylinux right now.
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  oh the huge-manatee of having to look for somthing! :)
[02:19] <Batmanifestdesti> lol
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  my del.icio.us homepage has a large list of puppy-links to pets.
[02:20] <Batmanifestdesti> I just like being able to download stuff instead of google searching and puppy forum searching for a version that works
[02:20] <th0th> hi
[02:20] <Batmanifestdesti> then again, I could just make -install stuff, but I'm a bit of a noob
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  as i said.. i use what the hardware can run. :)
[02:21] <Batmanifestdesti> well, what would you reccomend for a computer that uses parts from 1993-1997?
[02:21] <Batmanifestdesti> and it's a gateway T_T
[02:21] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  go to #puppylinux - state the exact specs.. and see what we suggest.
[02:22] <Batmanifestdesti> er, I'm not sure of the exact specs
[02:22] <Batmanifestdesti> I got this win98 from my friend
[02:22] <Harkins> I have a 3rd-party package that requires libltdl3, but the package is now named libltdl7-dev. How do I tell dpkg that so I can install this 3rd-party package?
[02:22] <Batmanifestdesti> with a pinked-out CRT
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  use 'lspci' and   other tools from Ubuntu to discover them :)
[02:22] <fosa> is gnome-terminal --geometry=X100Y100 the correct statement?
[02:22] <Batmanifestdesti> excep that I don't have Ubuntu on there
[02:23] <Lxcc-Vincenzo> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/393102
[02:23] <Dr_Willis> Harkins:  the -dev package is for developing/compiling apps that use that lib.
[02:23] <Batmanifestdesti> in fact, I only have 98 and a blank HDD on that compy right now ><
[02:23] <Batmanifestdesti> but at least I got the bland HD for free! =D
[02:23] <Harkins> Dr_Willis: Yep, and http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=names&keywords=libltdl3 shows it's the package I need.
[02:23] <lwizardl> hey
[02:24] <Harkins> or... no, I'm misreading, that is the -dev.
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> Harkins:  it would be weird that an app would need a -dev file to 'run'
[02:24] <Batmanifestdesti> hm.............
[02:24] <lwizardl> anyone here used a Linksys BEFW11S4 wireless router?
[02:24] <Harkins> Yeah, I was incorrect about that. I guess I don't know what libltdl3 is now provided by.
[02:24] <kbp> !watchdog
[02:24] <Batmanifestdesti> oh my.  I use a Linksys, and that thing is so stubborn
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> !find libltdl
[02:25] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. 7? is lobltd3 that old?
[02:25] <kbp> I run Ubuntu Server with X and in "top" there is a process called "watchdog". What is it actually? Thankyou (im new)
[02:25] <Batmanifestdesti> maybe I should just snoop around on pages till I find the right one for me
[02:25] <Batmanifestdesti> I love Puppy for USB booting, but I want something else for hard driving.
[02:26] <portfog> I need to install sata drivers for a SSD. Can anyone help?
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> fosa:  for xterm it would be '-geometry 80x24+30+200' or similer.. im not sure gnome-terminal even supports that option
[02:26] <fosa> Dr_Willis, Ah!
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> Batmanifestdesti:  'tiny core linux' is also handy for small low end systems
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> fosa:  :)
[02:27] <fosa> Dr_Willis, Thanks so much, the forums weren't saying anything about positions!
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> gnome-terminal -geometry 80x24+30+200
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> Failed to parse arguments: Unknown option -geometry
[02:27] <Flannel> Batmanifestdesti: Try DeLi Linux, but this is all offtopic for this chnnel
[02:27] <fosa> try --geometry
[02:27] <Batmanifestdesti> ok
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> fosa:  aha - that worked.
[02:27] <Harkins> Dr_Willis: Ah, I see, the package is now just libltdl7, and this package requiring libltdl3 doesn't know it. Any idea how to tell that 7 meets its dependency?
[02:27]  * ^Phantom^ gives Picle a Like-Like.
[02:27] <^Phantom^> oops
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> fosa:  gnome-terminal --help   is not too helpfull :)
[02:28] <ProfessorX> Why do I get bash: ./configure: Permission denied?
[02:28] <pmarchwiak> I'm having some issues with connecting to my company's VPN using NetworkManager. I can only access internal sites but nothing external.   It was in the lower right hand corner (gnome).
[02:28] <ProfessorX> Interphase: I already tried that
[02:28] <ProfessorX> sudo: ./configure: command not found
[02:29] <portfog> cl-newb right click the lower bar and select add to panel
[02:29] <fosa> Dr_Willis, it's not, and it's reference to a 'X' man page threw me
[02:29] <cl-newb> professorx: is configure set to eXecutable?
[02:29] <ProfessorX> How do I set it to executable?
[02:29] <cl-newb> chmod a+x file
[02:29] <cl-newb> sudo chmod a+x file
[02:30] <cl-newb> sudo chmod a+x configure
[02:30] <ProfessorX> ?
[02:30] <ProfessorX> Which command line is it? you gave me three
[02:30] <cl-newb> the last one
[02:30] <portfog> Does anyone know how to make a LiveCD out of a custom kernel?
[02:30] <ProfessorX> ok thanks
[02:30] <Flannel> portfog: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[02:31] <deco> is openssh-server like or is a sftp host ?
[02:31] <deco> server*
[02:32] <portfog> Flannel would you be able to tell me how I can install or make changes to drivers?
[02:32] <Flannel> deco: It's a SSH server, and SFTP goes through SSH, so it's also a SFTP server.
[02:32] <Flannel> portfog: That page describes it
[02:33] <deco> Flannel: oh understood
[02:33] <portfog> Flannel Thanks
[02:34] <deco> Flannel:  and i can connect to it with ftp i don't have to use for examply putty right?
[02:34] <deco> example*
[02:35] <Flannel> deco: You'd connect to it through whatever FTP client you were using.  If you aren't currently using one, Filezilla is a good, entirely free one
[02:36] <deco> Flannel: just with an ip  right? no fancy publickeys etc..?
[02:36] <deco> fancy*
[02:36] <Flannel> deco: Right.  Just like FTP
[02:36] <deco> Flannel:  oh wow than i have no reason to use ftp anymore :P
[02:36] <deco> Flannel: thanks for all your help
[02:36] <WAVIN> Can someone help me installing OSS?
[02:37] <abbazabba> silly question guys, i'm on 8.04 and whenever someone gives me a link via pidgin, it opens up as (http://www.%u.com/) in firefox...
[02:37] <jpbaao> having my monitor connected to my pci video card is keeping k/x/ubuntu from booting.  It boots fine attached to the factory output.  Model is nVidia GeForce 2MX
[02:37] <abbazabba> i downgraded the firefox to firefox 2
[02:39] <Radtoo> abbazabba: definitely sounds like your browser settings are wrong.
[02:40] <Radtoo> abbazabba: Check tools->preferences->browser and see if there's anything using %u instead of %s ...
[02:41] <ctmjr> WAVIN: go to oss4's web site they have a how too there
[02:41] <biozit> good night
[02:41] <jpbaao> Anyone have any ideas on my monitor boot issue?
[02:41] <biozit> where i can sugest i new feature to ubuntu ?
[02:41] <abbazabba> Radtoo: will do hold up
[02:42] <linuxguy2009> Anyone feel liek walking me through what im doing wrong with an external newly formatted ext3 USB drive? Im using "gksudo nautilus and tried to make the drive mine instaed of roots.Nothing. Am i going to be forced to use gksudo nautilus every time I want to use the drive at all?
[02:48] <beenyboyz> Can  anyone direct me to a chat that has info on Java install for ubuntu jaunty ? I have just gotten online with the laptop, Finally!!
[02:48] <abbazabba> Radtoo: i don't have anything like that in my preferences
[02:48] <swaj> beenyboyz: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre ?
[02:48] <beenyboyz> Is Radtoo talking to beennyboyz ( me ) ?? I am new to chat.
[02:49] <linuxguy2009> uh yeah
[02:49] <Pici> beenyboyz: look for messages with your name prefixed
[02:49] <beenyboyz> okay . swaj says install command lline fasion with sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre . correct?
[02:50] <swaj> beenyboyz: yes
[02:50] <Scunizi> !java | beenyboyz
[02:50] <swaj> beenyboyz: sun-java6-jre is a meta package that should get you up and running
[02:50] <jonathancw> Hi is the alternative CD necessary to do a installation of Ubuntu on Raid?
[02:50] <beenyboyz> Looks simple enough. Great advice swaj. Thanks.
[02:51] <Bejeezus> On my Acer netbook there's a key with a picture of a little house. How would I bind that to run go-home-applet?
[02:51] <beenyboyz> Also thanks Pici for the chat heads up.
[02:53] <jonathancw> Anyone with experience with raid?
[02:54] <AndyTim> There's clearly a bug in bsdgames.  I was aboard the Battlestar, went in the small adjoining room behind me, and a woodland elf attacked me.
[02:54] <Bejeezus> lol
[02:54] <AndyTim> That is certainly not true to the original.
[02:55] <jpbaao> I am having problems booting k/x/ubuntu when the monitor is plugged into my nVidia GeForce 2 card, but it boots ok with the factory card...  any suggestions?  Thanks!
[02:55] <deco> Floops: when i try to connect to the openssh server with ftp it won't work but with sftp it does i thought any ftp could connect?
[02:56] <deco> Floops: also it asks me for a password which i have no idea what it is
[02:56] <AndyTim> deco: SSH and FTP are different things.
[02:56] <Bejeezus> sftp is ftp tunnelled over ssh
[02:56] <AndyTim> deco: If you wish to connect to the server via FTP, the server must have an FTP service running.
[02:56] <fosa> aw.. my startup bash script didn't work
[02:57] <deco> AndyTim: so i can make it work with vsftp ?
[02:57] <Bejeezus> me, i just use netcat
[02:57] <AndyTim> deco: I've never heard of vstftp, but if it's a normal FTP service, yes, you should run it.
[02:57] <storm-zen> Trying to set up samba in jaunty.  What does this mean?:  "If you are indeed using xinetd, you will have to convert the above into /etc/xinetd.conf format, and add it manually."  Or more to the point, how do I do this?  A mention is made of itox, which prints out nothing.
[02:58] <storm-zen> vsftp is a secure ftp client.
[02:58] <deco> AndyTim: oh ok yeah it is, so how do i make an ftp server in general work with openssh-server?
[02:58] <storm-zen> sorry.. not client.
[02:58] <AndyTim> deco: If vsftp means "Very Secure FTP" or somesuch, then it likely does sit behind SSH.
[02:58] <storm-zen> Server.
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. when i full screen a flash video.. it fullscreens to the wrong monitor...
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> anyone seen a 'fix' for this annoyance?
[02:58] <deco> AndyTim: i never had openssh before i tried it,,,  so i don't know if it uses ssh by default
[02:58] <storm-zen> Dr_Willis: I see that issue with games, as well.
[02:59] <AndyTim> deco: The SSH password is the password of the user who you are trying to connect as.
[02:59] <swaj> AndyTim: vsftpd is traditional ftp.  There is no SSH component.
[02:59] <dante123> must say I'm favourably impressed with Ubuntu Netbook Remix on dell mini 9
[02:59] <AndyTim> swaj and storm-zen are in disagreement.
[02:59] <deco> swaj: how do i make it work with openssh-server?
[02:59] <AndyTim> ?
[02:59] <storm-zen> AndyTim: Go with swaj.
[02:59] <swaj> deco: you don't need to.
[02:59] <deco> AndyTim: ah hehe
[02:59] <deco> swaj: why?
[02:59] <swaj> deco: if you're running openssh-server, then sftp is already on
[02:59] <storm-zen> I remember something about vsFtp, but not much.
[03:00] <fosa> http://pastie.org/533818  <-- if i set chmod 755 on this file and also ran sudo update-rc file.sh defaults then would it run at boot time?
[03:00] <Dr_Willis> storm-zen:  not really seen it with games..  i guess some badly programmed games :)
[03:00] <Bejeezus> hm
[03:00] <deco> swaj: oh so just by having it installed all ftp servers are going through ssh?
[03:00] <storm-zen> Dr_Willis: No, with 3D accelerated games.
[03:00] <Bejeezus> I just tried to join #ubuntu-offtopic and apparently I'm banned.
[03:00] <Bejeezus> I find it surprising that I'm banned from a channel I've never visited.
[03:00] <storm-zen> It's a monitor issue, not a gaming issue.
[03:00] <swaj> deco: short answer, if ssh is running, sftp is up.  There's no separate package.
[03:00] <AndyTim> deco: Anyway, connect with the username and password of the user who owns the files you are trying to get.
[03:00] <deco> swaj: oh ok thank you
[03:00] <swaj> deco: if you want traditional ftp access, then something like proftpd or vsftpd would do that for you.
[03:00] <AndyTim> Bejeezus: An elite private club, no doubt.
[03:01] <storm-zen> ( Well, a driver issue.  Not a monitor issue. )
[03:01] <deco> AndyTim: ok thank you was a little bit thrown off that i never got a notice of choosing a password
[03:01] <storm-zen> Maybe I should leave... I seem to be too tired to be coherent.
[03:01] <AndyTim> deco: On the server, you can set a password for a user with 'passwd'
[03:02] <storm-zen> Anyone set up samba on Jaunty?
[03:02] <swaj> deco: if password authentication is disabled, you might need to supply your private key to the SFTP client of your choice.
[03:02] <AndyTim> deco: Or if you are root, you can set another user's password with 'passwd <user>', where <user> is the user's name.
[03:03] <safruhani> hi,could aero glass effect be used on linux ?
[03:03] <kbp> I'm running Ubuntu Server with Openbox & XOrg. What is the best power manager that gives me all features (cpu, ram control etc.)? Thank you
[03:03] <beenyboyz> anybody , where is the terminal window again. I have had it open before??
[03:03] <Flannel> safruhani: Have you seen compiz-fusion?
[03:04] <LadyNikon> beenyboyz: did you look in your systray?
[03:04] <beenyboyz> Never mind, found one.
[03:04] <LadyNikon> beenyboyz: at the bottom of your screen ( or at the top if designed it)
[03:04] <fosa> oh, bash scripts don't need ;'s ?
[03:04] <safruhani> Flannel: yes i use it, u say it's possible i think?
[03:04] <beenyboyz> Was in applications accessories!
[03:04] <Flannel> safruhani: I'm saying that we've already got those style of effects.
[03:04] <Caleb_Ubuntu_hap> Im running ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty and in firefox google and other  webpages only load partially. How can i fix this?
[03:04] <Dulak> fosa: in some places you need ;
[03:05] <AndyTim> Nevermind.  When running 'battlestar' as root, you get an extremely high chance of running into random enemies.
[03:05] <AndyTim> Running as a normal user works fine.
[03:05] <Caleb_Ubuntu_hap> Oh yeah and pidgin doesnt work at all
[03:05] <AndyTim> My bad.
[03:05] <storm-zen> ??
[03:05] <foo__> When you set a desktop background where does it copy the image to?
[03:05] <storm-zen> I think that may have been misinformation.
[03:05] <deco> thank you all have  bye
[03:06] <Caleb_Ubuntu_hap> I really need help
[03:06] <Dr_Willis> foo__:  it dosent as far as ive noticed..
[03:06] <jefinc> foo__: it doesn't copy the image
[03:06] <jonathancw> Does anyone have experience with installing ubuntu with raid
[03:06] <foo__> Didn't it used to, like remember when ubuntu has splash screens it would be like in the same directory wouldn't it? Maybe it changed since then?
[03:06] <safruhani> Flannel: the windows are arranged one after other (possible on compiz?)
[03:06] <Caleb_Ubuntu_hap> Im running ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty and in firefox google and other  webpages only load partially.Also , pidgin doesnt connect at all... How can i fix this?
[03:07] <foo__> Or it was like a sym link.
[03:08] <Flannel> safruhani: What?
[03:08] <jonathancw> Does anyone have experience with installing ubuntu with raid
[03:08] <Flannel> safruhani: Oh, the 3D cascade thing?  I believe so, yes.
[03:08] <jefinc> foo__: splash screens are all stored in the /usr/shared I believe, but as far as desktop backgrounds it just links to the current location of the file, if the file is deleted/moved it is no longer viewable
[03:08] <safruhani> Flannel: sorry for my english, like this:http://www.cagdaskorkut.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/aero1.jpg
[03:08] <queso> Can someone help me get a driver working for an Edimax EW-7318USg as per this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7558563 ?
[03:09] <Caleb_Ubuntu_hap> Stuff this...
[03:09] <foo__> jefinc: would the link be in the /usr/shared? Do you know where?
[03:10] <Sinatra> if anyone would happen to know how to download text messages from my Motorola Q to my desktop computer, please message me, this is very important.  I have found a copy of the vol.pim file on the phone if that helps.  Again, please /msg me if you can help!
[03:10] <fosa> where is the desktop/gnome/background directory?
[03:10] <Flats> IO have an ext USB WD drive that mounts fine in ubuntu however I want it to mount at startup. How do I go about that?
[03:10] <Flannel> safruhani: I have no idea, I don't use it myself, but yes, I'm almost certain there's a plugin for that.
[03:10] <foo__> jefinc: The reason I ask is kinda strange. I wanna make it read only (r-r-r) so my sister can't change it!!
[03:10] <safruhani> Flannel: i understood, thanks for help
[03:10] <Dr_Willis> poor caleb - left befor i could tell him Yahoo broke pidgin.
[03:10] <Flannel> safruhani: You might try asking in #compiz
[03:10] <jefinc> foo__: not sure, but there is a /usr/share/backgrounds
[03:11] <foo__> jefinc: Maybe if it moved the background changed application?!
[03:11] <Flats> I tried /dev/sdb1 /media/WD250 auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 in FStab
[03:11] <Flats> but no luck
[03:11] <coleys> How do I uninstall unetbootin from flash drive? Just delete the files...?
[03:12] <mr_spot_> Flats: get rid of "noauto" in that list, it means "don't automatically mount at startup"
[03:12] <jefinc> foo__: I'm not 100% sure but I think there is a way to set it to require a password
[03:12] <Dr_Willis> coleys:  unetbootin just copies a lot of files to the flash drive and a boot loader (syslinux) i recall...
[03:12] <foo__> jefinc: My sister will stop at nothing to change the wallpaper...
[03:12] <Dr_Willis> coleys:  delete the files.. or reformat it.
[03:12] <Gobbles> hello all
[03:12] <coleys> Dr_Willis: Ahh, figured. thanks =)
[03:12] <jefinc> foo__: not sure what to do there, sorry
[03:12] <Bejeezus> give your sister her own accoutn
[03:13] <Bejeezus> let her change her own wallpaper to her heart's content
[03:13] <foo__> jefinc: np, I'll figure it out.
[03:13] <Flats> nice. Thanks but I still can't mount it now. I think it has something to do with the /media/WD250 What should be where the Wd250 is? I just made that up
[03:13] <totalgamer14> hi

[03:15] <Dr_Willis> Flats:  the MOUNT POINT diretory must exist..
[03:15] <coldhead> my kernel has just been upgraded to a new version. whats a good source for information on what's new?
[03:15] <Dr_Willis> Flats:  /media/WHATEVER is the mount point.
[03:15] <Gobbles> Anyone around that can help with a pcmcia network driver?  I would appreciate it
[03:15] <Flats> Sorry little new at t his. I want to use the whole drive so do I just make a WD250 directory on the root of the HD?
[03:16] <Dr_Willis> Flats:  No.. you are failing to understand the basics.. you 'mount' a filesystem to a 'mountpoint' the filesystem then 'appears' at that mountpoint
[03:16] <mr_spot_> Flats: no, you make the directory on your hard drive. run "sudo mkdir /media/WD250"
[03:16] <Dr_Willis> Flats:  so the directory /media/wd250 must exist befor you try that mount /dev/whatever /media/wd250 command.
[03:16] <mr_spot_> Flats: as in, the one you installed ubuntu onto
[03:16] <Flats> Oh Ok. think I got it BRB

[03:18] <Zopiac> it is perpetually maxing out one of my cores
[03:18] <djzn> hello... need big help here!!! I was doing an system update, and it wanted to *change menu.lst* - at the time I told it to *keep current file unchanged*... but my kernel did not get updated... now I need to know the command to go back to that screen, so that it can generate the kernel entry in grub with proper UUID... help!
[03:18] <TuxedoBond> Hi.
[03:19] <ehazlett> djzn: run sudo update-grub
[03:19] <jonathancw> Hi, does anyone have knowledge using raid and installing Ubuntu on it
[03:19] <TuxedoBond> Will the Minimal CD also install the full range of apps Ubuntu normally comes with?
[03:19] <Dr_Willis> TuxedoBond:  it will not 'include' them - but they can be installed afterwardz
[03:19] <TuxedoBond> I want to install Ubuntu with out the extra productivity apps.
[03:20] <TuxedoBond> Excellent.
[03:20] <djzn> enhazlett: it does not work.... no new kernel entry is added to menu.lst, and no uuid number
[03:20] <gemilang> hello all. need help. where i can download small game for my ubuntu which not always have internet connection?
[03:20] <djzn> enhazlett: the graph screen that comes up when that happens, which command is that?
[03:20] <jonathancw> Hi, does anyone have knowledge using raid and installing Ubuntu on it
[03:21] <JStullick> jonathancw: Well, what type of RAID?
[03:21] <storm-zen> What is your issue, jonathancw?
[03:21] <jonathancw> Mirroring
[03:21] <jonathancw> My issue is this, I have the Ubuntu live cd
[03:22] <gemilang> hello all. need help. where i can download small game for my ubuntu 9.04 which not always have internet connection?
[03:22] <storm-zen> You may need an alternate CD.
[03:22] <djzn> you know when you update the kernel... through system updates, there comes a screen UI asking what to do with MENU.LST... i need to run *THAT*...which command is it
[03:22] <jonathancw> When I go to install--it tells me it completes (mind you I had Vista on the system prior).  When the pc reboots, it trys to go to windows repair
[03:22] <storm-zen> Oh.  What does that have to do with raid?
[03:22] <jonathancw> Storm, I was thinking that aswell.  Unfortunately lol..
[03:22] <coldhead> where is a good source of information on the latest ubuntu kernel releases?
[03:22] <jonathancw> It's not actually doing grub..
[03:22] <Gobbles> I have a xircom rbem56g pcmcia network/modem card in an old laptop that I want to run ubuntu server on, but ubuntu doesn't recognize it.  Is there a way to fix this?
[03:23] <ehazlett> djzn: that is the dpkg configuration screen
[03:23] <coldhead> do the kernel packages have official web pages?
[03:23] <djzn> ehazlett: yes!! dpkg configuration screen.. which one is it for update menu lst?
[03:23] <jonathancw> storm-zen: it acts like it doest even see the new installation of ubuntu hehe
[03:23] <storm-zen> jonathancw: Did you install grub to the MBR during install?
[03:23] <storm-zen> How many drives?
[03:23] <gemilang> need help, where i can download small game for my ubuntu 9.04 which not always have internet connection?
[03:23] <storm-zen> ( do you have in that PC? )
[03:23] <jonathancw> storm-zen: 2, 500 gb hard drives
[03:24] <ehazlett> djzn: try dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-<version>
[03:24] <storm-zen> hmm.  Maybe a look at what happened might help.  Google gparted.
[03:24] <ehazlett> djzn: whichever kernel you installed
[03:24] <storm-zen> The liveCD will let you look at the drives on your system to try to determined what happened.
[03:24] <Dr_Willis> gemilang:  theres a great many games in the package manager..  Unless i am missunderstanding the question
[03:25] <storm-zen> It almost sounds like the wrong drive is being used during boot, or something like that...
[03:25] <jonathancw> thats what i was thinking
[03:25] <Zopiac> does skype use up a ton of CPU for anyone else?
[03:25] <cdenny> right now I am using windows 7, when I try to stream divx through firefox3 or IE7 fullscreen it gets choppy, does ubuntu do divx well>
[03:25] <Dr_Willis> Zopiac:  if we all answer. 'no' will it matter? :) check thee forums perhaps?
[03:25] <cdenny> btw I have a powerful computer
[03:26] <djzn> ehazlett: I don't get the graph screen
[03:26] <Dr_Willis> cdenny:  i have no issues with Divx or other videos on my linux box's
[03:27] <storm-zen> jonathancw: If that is the case, you may be able to switch the boot drive in your BIOS.
[03:27] <cdenny> Dr_Willis: even fullscreen?
[03:27] <Flats> Ok not I',m getting it. However I have to do sudo mount /media/WD250 will that still work in fstab. Even though manually I have to use sudo
[03:27] <Dr_Willis> cdenny:  I play videos fine.
[03:27] <djzn> ehazlett: Not updating initrd symbolic links since we are being updated/reinstalled
[03:27] <djzn> (2.6.28-13.45 was configured last, according to dpkg)
[03:27] <Gobbles> I have a xircom rbem56g pcmcia network/modem card in an old laptop that I want to run ubuntu server on, but ubuntu doesn't recognize it.  Is there a way to fix this?
[03:27] <Dr_Willis> cdenny:  now if you are refering to a FLASH issue.. thats not the same as divx issues...
[03:27] <cdenny> Dr_Willis: nope streaming divx, like stage6
[03:28] <Dr_Willis> cdenny:  watching divx from justin.tv right now. no problems.
[03:28] <cdenny> is ubuntu the best for that or is there a media specific distro?
[03:28] <ehazlett> djzn: the only other thing i can recommend it to reinstall the package with apt-get install --reinstall to get the configuration...
[03:28] <cdenny> I can dual boot so I just need something to watch divx streams on
[03:28] <Dr_Willis> cdenny:  try it and see i guess. ive never seen a 'media specic disrto' other then the GeexBox media player-disrto.
[03:28] <cdenny> ok
[03:29] <cdenny> brb
[03:29] <djzn> already done that
[03:29] <djzn> it won't bring that screen back
[03:29] <ehazlett> djzn: did you remove the package?
[03:29] <nasrullah> my pidgin cannot open ,ur help pls
[03:29] <djzn> ehazlett: no i didn't.. should I?

[03:30] <Tecna> I have a friend on the phone whose "sudo ifdown eth0" is returning "eth0 not configured"

[03:31] <nasrullah> pls help me to fix my pidgin
[03:31] <Tecna> yes
[03:31] <Roland> anyone know how long CLAM builds?
[03:32] <Dr_Willis> nasrullah:  you mean it dosent run? or dosent work/connect? give the channel details.
[03:32] <nasrullah> it does n't run
[03:32] <Dr_Willis> nasrullah:  open a terminal, try running it via command line.. look for error messages
[03:32] <Tecna> ehazlett: yes its eth0
[03:32] <Gobbles> I have a xircom rbem56g pcmcia network/modem card in an old laptop that I want to run ubuntu server on, but ubuntu doesn't recognize it.  Is there a way to fix this?
[03:33] <coldhead> nasrullah: the command to run pidgin from the terminal is: pidgin
[03:33] <ehazlett> Tecna: what are you trying to do?
[03:33] <KillGorack> hey, I know this is a simple one.. how do I get a DVD to play?
[03:33] <nasrullah> ok i will try it
[03:33] <queso> a config script I am running wants the Linux kernal source directory (/usr/src/linux-2.6.28-13-generic).  Is there a way to get this as a package?
[03:33] <Tecna> trying to get her interrnet working
[03:33] <nasrullah> thank you dr willis
[03:33] <Dr_Willis> Gobbles:  you may need to manually load the proper pcmcia modules for it. Or it may be unsupported by linux. with some luck google may give a clue as to if its even supported at all.
[03:33] <coldhead> KillGorack: you have to install codecs that aren't shipped with Ubuntu
[03:33] <ehazlett> Tecna:  is she running the desktop version (network manager)?
[03:34] <nasrullah> which external dvd drive is good for ubuntu jaunty
[03:34] <KillGorack> aight.. is that something that can be done?
[03:34] <Dr_Willis> nasrullah:  most any externasl usb optical drive should work.
[03:34] <coldhead> KillGorack: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/
[03:34] <nasrullah> thank you
[03:34] <Tecna> ehazlett: Not sure.  she screwed around and installed xfce, so I'm not sure what's different
[03:35] <Scunizi> KillGorack: also enable the medibuntu repos for the libdvdss (or something like that).. it's the codec for watching dvd's
[03:35] <ehazlett> Tecna: do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[03:35] <Scunizi> !medibuntu | KillGorack
[03:35] <Gobbles> dr_willis:  Thank you, I have run DSL/Puppy and others on it and it works, ubuntu is actually the only distro I tried that hasn't worked, I have googled around for it but have not found any info on what I need to do.  Do I need to enable pcmcia modules that are already in ubuntu, or will I probably need to download something extra
[03:35] <Tecna> ehazlett: I think we got
[03:35] <ehazlett> Tecna: cool
[03:36] <Dr_Willis> Gobbles:  see what modules are loaded in the disrtos it works on.. try loading them by hand on the ubuntu system.
[03:36] <Dr_Willis> Gobbles:  the fact that it works on some of them.. is a good sign
[03:37] <Gobbles> dr:  Ok I will try to figure out what is loading on dsl, kind of flying blind with linux on some things :)
[03:37] <Dr_Willis> Gobbles:  compare lsmod command output. :)
[03:38] <Gobbles> dr: thank you, will do

[03:40] <SmoKeyCastle> Hi all, I am trying to configure kismet on ubuntu, i am running into a little problem. with the declaration: source=sourcetype,interface,name[,initialchannel] What should go where. with interface i am guessing it should be wlan0 but i dont know what to call the source?
[03:40] <queso> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` will get me kernel headers, but I need the source files.  is there a package for the source?
[03:40] <coldhead> ubuntu is maximum useability with minimal effort and maximal support
[03:41] <sebsebseb> perlnovice: ,because Ubuntu is a good Linux  distribution to start with
[03:41] <Caleb_> I need help with ubuntu. When i go into pidgin it doesnt connect properly even though i can easily surf the internet on firefox. Also when i try to update the repository information it says OK and like 4 fails and another downloading... Im using jaunty
[03:42] <Scunizi> Caleb_: doesn't connect properly to .. let me guess.. yahoo?
[03:42] <Caleb_> Scunizl:No irc and msn
[03:43] <Caleb_> Yahoo is... SUCK
[03:43] <jonathancw> lol
[03:43] <Scunizi> Caleb_: ok. that's strange.. as for the repos.. you can have synaptic search for the best server for your location.
[03:43] <Tecna> ehazlett: the problem is not with the computer at all, it's the isp or the modem they provided.  she's calling them now
[03:43] <Caleb_> Ok how do i fix pidgin?
[03:43] <ehazlett> Tecna:  gotcha
[03:44] <gamepockets> can anyone help with formating an external hd that keeps saying an error occured during process??
[03:44] <Tecna> Caleb_: join #pidgin.
[03:44] <Caleb_> is synaptic add/remove?
[03:44] <Caleb_> ok
[03:44] <JorgeJorgesson> I don't seem to have sound in Flash programs in Firefox....is there something I'm missing?
[03:45] <Scunizi> Caleb_: no.. System/Admin/Synaptic Package Manager
[03:45] <helg18> español?
[03:45] <helg18> español?
[03:45] <helg18> español?
[03:45] <helg18> español?
[03:45] <FloodBot2> helg18: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:45] <Dr_Willis> Caleb_:  add/remove is a dummbed down/crippled 'shadow of a program' that is a front end to the apt-get pacnage manager system..  Synaptic is the big boy tool to use  :)

[03:45] <SmoKeyCastle> Hi all, I am trying to configure kismet on ubuntu, i am running into a little problem. with the declaration: source=sourcetype,interface,name[,initialchannel] What should go where. with interface i am guessing it should be wlan0 but i dont know what to call the source?
[03:46] <Caleb_> ok
[03:46] <queso> If I have Linux 2.6.28-13-generic will the linux-source package be the source for my version of the OS?
[03:46] <somethingelse> hey, when firefox 3.5 is cleared, will it be added as an upgrade to the existing browser in 9.04?
[03:46] <Flannel> !kernel | queso
[03:46] <sammyF> Dr_Willis: I thought it was "./configure & make & sudo make install" :P
[03:46] <Flannel> somethingelse: No.  There's a separate 3.5 package (currently being the beta version)
[03:46] <somethingelse> Flannel, I saw that, so that package will be updated then?
[03:47] <ehazlett> queso: sudo apt-get source linux-image-<version>
[03:47] <Flannel> somethingelse: Yes
[03:47] <Dr_Willis> sammyF:  we all know the ultimate command is apt-get moo
[03:47] <somethingelse> gotcha, okay, thanks
[03:47] <quidnunc> somethingelse: It is in jaunty-proposed now
[03:47] <queso> ehazlett: will that install the source in /usr/src/linux-<version>  ?
[03:47] <quidnunc> somethingelse: If you want it now add jaunty-proposed repo.
[03:47] <Caleb_> Is the australia ubuntu server the fastest for australia?
[03:47] <Pici> SmoKeyCastle: zless /usr/share/doc/kismet/README.gz  should give you enough info for picking the sourcetype based on what your wireless card is.  I believe  the 'name' field is anything you want
[03:48] <Scunizi> Caleb_: when editing the msn connection on pidgin go to the advanced tab and verify the following.... Server=messenger.hotmail.com.. port=1863... Http method server=gateway.messenger.hotmail.com ... and Proxy type = Use Gnome Proxy Settings
[03:48] <sammyF> does btnx run in Jaunty?
[03:48] <ehazlett> queso: no you will have to move it there yourself
[03:48] <SmoKeyCastle> thanks pici
[03:48] <somethingelse> quidnunc, ok, thanks a lot
[03:48] <ehazlett> queso: but that's the source
[03:48] <Dread> can anyone tell me if sudo allows you to specify the password as a parameter?
[03:48] <queso> ehazlett: great!  thanks.  do you know where that will by default install it so I can find it to move it?
[03:48] <Flannel> Dread: What are you trying to accomplish?
[03:48] <Scunizi> Dread: sudo prompts for your user password for admin privildges
[03:49] <ehazlett> queso: in your current directory
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> Dread:  that would be a big security loophole
[03:49] <queso> ehazlett: great, thanks again.  I'll give it a shot. :)
[03:49] <Dread> is that a no then?
[03:49] <ehazlett> queso: sure, np
[03:49] <Flannel> Dread: What are you trying to accomplish?
[03:49] <Dread> Flannel, im trying to get sudo to take the password as a parameter
[03:49] <helg18> how to connect to #ubuntu-es??
[03:50] <helg18> how to connect to #ubuntu-es??
[03:50] <quidnunc> helg18: /join #ubuntu-es
[03:50] <sammyF> Dread: logging in as administrator is NEVER a good idea
[03:50] <Flannel> Dread: That's not an accomplishment in itself, what are you hoping to do by doing that?
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> helg18:  i can click on the #whatever  name and join it :)
[03:50] <Tecna> helg18: "/join #ubuntu-es"
[03:50] <nellmathew> Flannel: i'm guessing he doesn't want to wait for  "enter a password" prompts, Dread ever consider adding yourself to sudoers?
[03:51] <Dread> ok guys, not looking for a lecture, im totally aware of the security concerns, im just looking for an answer
[03:51] <Flannel> nellmathew: He could be doing a number of htings
[03:51] <Flannel> Dread: I'm not trying to lecture you, I'm trying to solve your problem.  What are you trying to do?
[03:51] <nellmathew> Dread, just explain why EXACTLY you want to be able to do this? What's the purpose?
[03:52] <blz> I seem to have a codec problem:  I'm trying to play a quicktime format audio stream from a website -- firefox prompted me to install gecko media player and I did so, but when I refreshed the page, the mplayer controls show up (embedded) but it won't play the stream.  what gives?
[03:52] <ufd> anyone using vlc video player
[03:52] <Scunizi> blz: try restarting FF
[03:52] <blz> Scunizi:  I did already
[03:53] <Scunizi> ufd: lots of us.. what's the question
[03:53] <ufd> does it run ok on the 904
[03:53] <ufd> i wasa just curious
[03:53] <ehazlett> Dread: check out the NOPASSWD option in for sudo  (/etc/sudoers)
[03:53] <Scunizi> ufd: sure
[03:53] <ufd> thanks scunizi
[03:53] <blz> here's the site, if it helps:  http://www.good-ear.com/servlet/EarTrainer?chap=1&menu=2
[03:53] <sammyF> ufd: it does
[03:54] <Dread> ehazlett, i need to be able to use the password
[03:54] <Dread> not have a non-passworded user
[03:54] <ufd> thanks
[03:54] <Flannel> Dread: Again, What are you trying to accomplish?  We cannot help you if you refuse to be helped.
[03:54] <ehazlett> like Flannel said, you will need to tell us what you are trying to make happen
[03:54] <Dread> i've stated this twice already
[03:55] <aXeus> Is there a LAMP package for Jaunty?
[03:55] <Flannel> Dread: No, you've stated what you're trying to do to solve the problem, but not what the problem is.
[03:55] <Flannel> !lamp | aXeus
[03:55] <ehazlett> Dread: stating that you want to pass an argument at a program is not an option -- sudo doesn't allow that
[03:55] <aXeus> Flannel: Thanks.
[03:55] <Scunizi> aXeus: yes.. in synatpic choose "install by Task"
[03:55] <Pici> Dread: i.e: if you're trying to schedule a script, there are better ways than passing a password to sudo
[03:55] <Dread> ehazlett, that was an answer, thank you
[03:55] <blz> The stream is in .mid format -- I assume that's quicktime because I checked on a windows machine.  Is there a codec in the repositories I can download?
[03:55] <sammyF> anybody knows whether btnx runs in jaunty?
[03:56] <Dr_Willis> !info btnx
[03:56] <JorgeJorgesson> I have no sound in Flash...is there a fix for this?
[03:56] <Dr_Willis> sammyF:  try it and see?
[03:56] <Khisanth> Dread: you could probably do it with expect :)
[03:57] <blz> !quicktime
[03:57] <sammyF> Dr_Willis: shame on me. didn't even think to check synaptics. last time I installed it I compiled it
[03:58] <Dr_Willis> sammyF:  its been the repos for the last few releses ive thought.
[03:58] <sammyF> Dr_Willis: yep. but I didn't do any reinstall for 3 release or something
[03:58] <sammyF> Dr_Willis: anyway. thanks :)
[03:59] <blz> quicktime audio on jaunty?  anybody?
[03:59] <JorgeJorgesson> Ok, I will try it in XP to make sure it works
[04:00] <Dr_Willis> blz:  last i checked '.mid' was for midi music...
[04:00] <Dr_Willis> blz:  whats the url to the stream?
[04:00] <blz> Dr_Willis:  that's interesting... is there a codec for that?
[04:01] <blz> Dr_Willis:  http://www.good-ear.com/servlet/EarTrainer?chap=1&menu=1
[04:01] <blz> that's the website
[04:01] <Dr_Willis> blz:  midi is not a 'codec' :) its a file format.
[04:01] <blz> the stream is, /A42376257FBB61EB61373B0E490687B4_2.mid
[04:01] <Dr_Willis> blz:  that url you gave plays fine hwer for me..
[04:01] <blz> Dr_Willis:  right. but is there a codec i need to install to play midi files?
[04:01] <Dr_Willis> blz:  its not a midi file.
[04:02] <Dr_Willis> im listinng to it now..
[04:02] <blz> What player are you using?
[04:02] <blz> and what plugin? are you on FF?
[04:02] <Dr_Willis> using firefox.. and nothing special installed...
[04:03] <Dr_Willis> blz:  oh wait.. :) that was a DIFFERNET firefox tab making noise.. My mistake...
[04:03] <xTheGoat121x> I've got a problem with eeebuntu, but no one seems to be awake in their room... maybe someone in here can give some guidance?
[04:03] <blz> hahaha i've done that...
[04:03] <JorgeJorgesson> Ok, works under XP, just not Ubuntu 9.04 and Firefox
[04:03] <xTheGoat121x> My *buntu installation on my netbook goes to a blank screen after login.
[04:04] <Dr_Willis> blz:   testing the mplayer plugin for firefox.. lets see if it does somthing.
[04:04] <aXeus> LAMP installed and configured.
[04:04] <aXeus> Thanks guys.
[04:05] <blz> Dr_Willis:  I tried both and recieved fail
[04:05] <Dr_Willis> blz:  from what i am reading that site just does simple tunes/rythms - so yes the sound very well could be 'midi' files
[04:05] <blz> yeah, that's correct
[04:06] <blz> Ubuntuforums suggests totem-mozilla, so I'm going to test that real quick
[04:06] <Curly_Q> Hello there folks. I am migrating from Red Hat 9 to Ubuntu. Will the line commands work in Ubuntu as it does in RH9?
[04:06] <blz> already installed... fail
[04:07] <reduz> hi
[04:07] <reduz> any guides to remove pulseaudio sanely?
[04:07] <laymansnerd> Curly_Q: yes
[04:07] <reduz> i removed it, now my sound doesn't work
[04:08] <Curly_Q> Laymansnerd, just curious, does Ubuntu have the GUI <lokkit> firewall as RH?
[04:08] <jonathancw> Hi, how do you remove gnome and install kde?
[04:08] <blz> Dr_Willis:  any luck?
[04:08] <bastidrazor> !purekde | jonathancw
[04:09] <kbp> People say we shouldn't install GUI on Ubuntu Server. Despite from the server resource reason, is there any other reason? Is X not secure enough to be on net?
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> blz:  nope. i cant recall any web wites that ever used midi format befor either...
[04:09] <jonathancw> ty
[04:09] <sammyF> jonathancw: alternatively, you can keep gnome and install KDE beside it. you can switch between environment on the gdm
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> blz:  no idea if mplayer can even play midi. theres tons of other midi players in the repos.. but ive never seen a firefox plugin for midi
[04:09] <blz> Dr_Willis:  yeah, not exactly common.  I'll start an ubuntuforums thread, thanks for your help though
[04:09] <jonathancw> can you have an option to run Gnome or KDE?
[04:09] <jonathancw> how would i do that sammy
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> jonathancw:  the login screen has a menu to pick what desktop to use
[04:10] <blz> !midi
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> jonathancw:  those linux guys think of everything :)
[04:10] <Curly_Q> My other wonder is that I know that KDE uses less resources than GNOME. Has there been any improvements with Gnome in that respect?
[04:10] <jonathancw> how would i install kde
[04:10] <sammyF> jonathancw: select it in synaptics
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> Curly_Q:  ive never seen that  statement befor.. KDE seems to use more for me then gnome...
[04:10] <blz> !.mid
[04:11] <blz> !midi stream
[04:11] <bastidrazor> jonathancw, follow that link except the removing of ubuntu-desktop
[04:11] <blz> !anything
[04:11] <JorgeJorgesson> So, nothing on sound and Flash in firefox?
[04:11] <jonathancw> bastidrazor ty
[04:11] <laymansnerd> Curly_Q lokkit isn't in the ubuntu repos but there is a good deal of firewall guis...i've heard shorewall is good.....and i find better performance on my machine with gnome
[04:11] <blz> man i just got beat at my own game by a robot...
[04:11] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:   i think the flash wiki page has some troublshooting tips.
[04:12] <Curly_Q> Laymansnerd, thanks. Good answer. Dr Willis, thanks for your experience. I always did like Gnome.
[04:12] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: what address?
[04:12] <jonathancw> ty sammyF
[04:12] <Dr_Willis> !flash
[04:12] <laymansnerd> no problemo :-)
[04:12] <sammyF> jonathancw: seriously do not remove gnome if you can. KDE4 is perhaps not really what you expect
[04:13] <sammyF> jonathancw: thus the "keep both" option
[04:13] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: I have Flash installed.  No sound though
[04:13] <laymansnerd> lots of issues....sammyF is right
[04:13] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  there are known Flash/audio issues..  check the troubleshooting tips perhaps?
[04:14] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: I understand, where?
[04:14] <laymansnerd> it seems a little better in the karmic koala release though....running it in a virtualbox and it's pretty smooth
[04:14] <laymansnerd> except i can't get my addons to work correctly :-\
[04:14] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  none at the link the bot just gave?  i think ive seen info there..
[04:14] <Curly_Q> A few more questions. One is: Has anyone here used Ubuntu as a video server or a streaming audio or video server?
[04:15] <xTheGoat121x> Okay, I have a bit more info on my problem.
[04:16] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: no, none of the same symptoms.  I just have no sound.
[04:16] <Curly_Q> That would bring me to another question: Is Ubuntu compatible with FLASH streaming .flv and so on?
[04:16] <xTheGoat121x> dmesg gives me a warning about [drm:i915] issues all over the place... and I have no idea how to correct it
[04:16] <sammyF> Curly_Q: yes. to the extent that Adobe's closed source plugin works
[04:17] <sammyF> Curly_Q: for videos it seems to work fine
[04:17] <Curly_Q> OK.
[04:18] <Dr_Willis> Curly_Q:  most of the issues with flash.. are.. well.. adobes fault to a large degree it seems...
[04:18] <Curly_Q> SammyF are there alternative Open Source compatible stuff that rivals Adobe?
[04:18] <sammyF> Curly_Q: let me put my asbestos suit on first
[04:18] <Curly_Q> lol
[04:18] <sammyF> Curly_Q: HTML5 might be a solution
[04:19] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: thanks.....way too much modifications to do to all my machines.  Thanks though.
[04:19] <sammyF> Curly_Q: but Adobe created/ended in a monopolistic position when it comes to content rich media or whatever it's called
[04:20] <Curly_Q> I have been pounding the pavement on a few ideas. I am trying to work on setting up an internet TV and Radio streaming studio for my School.
[04:20] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  i have no flash/sound issues on my 5 machines..  I do know theres a package or 2 to try to get flash/audio working better.
[04:20] <sammyF> Curly_Q: and sadly, nobody ever read or saw spiderman at Adobe's headwquarter, so the whole "with great power comes great responsability (toward LInux Users)" went past them
[04:20] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: I will take it back to XP on those machines that require sound with Flash
[04:21] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  check the package manager/forums - i recall some  simple package you might want to isntall to see if it works.
[04:21] <Dulak> JorgeJorgesson: well the alternative is to run windows in a virtual machine for the flash+sound maybe?
[04:21] <Mitchell_> hi, im trying to setup a 9.04 kvm server with pci passtrough, everything is working fine except the pci passtrough, i keep getting this error: http://pastebin.com/m2d4e42ae , seems to me like its missing the pci_stub driver?, now ive googled that this seems to be included in the 2.6.29 kernel, does that mean pci passtrough is not supported on 2.6.28? or am i not seeing anything else?
[04:21] <JorgeJorgesson> nah, they all have windows pre-installed
[04:23] <JorgeJorgesson> I will try ubuntu on those machines again when it gets the sound working.
[04:23] <ratshell> I have a question in firefox or virtualbox xp internet explorer either one when a DNS needs too be resolved it TAKES a while it like hangs before loading...yet other computers on the network running XP work just fine load pages fast and dual booting this computer too XP loads pages fast..its like a DNS resolve issue in Ubuntu any suggestions?
[04:23] <Curly_Q> The only problem that I dread is that when servers use VMWare and the like, there is what is called: "Single Point of Failure" Which means that if one thing goes wrong, then, everything else is taken down simultaneously.
[04:23] <ehazlett> Curly_Q: that's why you build highly available redundant clusters
[04:24] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  you mean when adobe gets its flash sound working? :)
[04:24] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: yup
[04:24] <Curly_Q> Good point Ehazlett.
[04:25] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:   i will repeate. there is some 'flash-sound compatiabilty' type package that some people require.. but  i dont know its name.
[04:25] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: my client doesn't care if it is Ubuntu or adobe.  Ubuntu will not play Flash audio.  Plain and simple problem.
[04:26] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, so your flash won't play audio right?
[04:26] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, in firefox?
[04:26] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: correct....on all machines
[04:26] <gsr> I ran the "check hard drives" option on the ubuntu 9.04 live CD, and it reported there was an error (but didn't say what).  How can I run this check from the command line?  both fsck and e2fsck don't report any errors (but the install CD reports I/O errors when trying to install ubuntu).
[04:27] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: yes, firefox
[04:27] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, which version of flash?
[04:27] <JorgeJorgesson> 10
[04:28] <async> gsr - sounds like you have erros
[04:28]  * Dr_Willis googles for ubuntu flash sound problem and gets a few hits.. one of which mentions....
[04:28] <Dr_Willis> $ sudo apt-get install libflashsupport
[04:28] <sammyF> JorgeJorgesson: the sound files at freesound.org all play well for me, even multiple ones at the same time. And I'm rather sure it's flash audio
[04:28] <sammyF> ecli
[04:28] <Dulak> yeah I get audio in youtube and hulu videos with no problems
[04:28] <async> gsr - sounds like you have errors on the CD itself. Maybe a burn error or something
[04:29] <sammyF> sorry ... wrong windows
[04:29] <Dr_Willis> some people seem tofix flash issues with -->   $ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound
[04:29] <gsr> async: hmm, ok.  ill reburn it and try again.  Maybe tomorrow, I've been fighting with grub for the last 4 hours
[04:30] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, do you have libflashsupport installed?
[04:31] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: no such package
[04:31] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: package errors
[04:31] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, okay hmmmm

[04:32] <adante> hi guys, is there an up to date guide anywhere for transferring an ubuntu install to another hard drive?
[04:33] <Scunizi> adante: just clone it ..use clonezilla or partimage
[04:34] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: no worries, I'll take them back to XP
[04:34] <Dr_Willis> troubleshooting sound flash issues -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130384
[04:34] <adante> Scunizi: the drives are also part of a mirror raid setup, any idea if this will complicate things at all?
[04:34] <Dr_Willis> seems flash may be sending sound to the wrong devvice.
[04:35] <Scunizi> adante: ouch.. that I can't answer.. I have no experience with raid
[04:35] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: no worries....Linux cannot solve all problems!
[04:36] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  expecially problems that come from closed source software
[04:36] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, don't go yet there still might be a fix lol
[04:36] <thinkertinker> anyone can help why my gprs internet connection is slow??
[04:36] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: I've googled and the fixes are very complicated and based on hardware.
[04:37] <Xerran> Hello all
[04:37] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  there proberly is a fix..  but if you want to give up.. go ahead..    Ill stick with linux.  the fixs ive been seeing are normally simple.
[04:37] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: no simple generic solution
[04:37] <JorgeJorgesson> Dr_Willis: I'll stick with Linux as well....just my clients
[04:38] <Xerran> could someone please explain how i can install an application?
[04:38] <k_graham> I have used www.Clonezilla.org ID s program but on our Mirrored linux SME server it was doing sector by sector copy as image much slower
[04:38] <Adola> I want to copy the top 100 number of played tracks from Amarok to a folder via fileshare..
[04:38] <Adola> how can I go about doing that?
[04:38] <Scunizi> Xerran: what do you want to instsall?
[04:38] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, I remember I had the no sound in flash a while back just trying too think of what I did too fix it..curious what version of Ubuntu?
[04:38] <Dr_Willis> Xerran:  depends on the app. :) 'sudo apt-get install cowsay' for example will install 'cowsay'
[04:38] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: 9.04 across the board
[04:39] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, 64 or 32?
[04:39] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: all 32
[04:40] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, how did you install flash?
[04:40] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: default with Ubuntu 9.04
[04:41] <hiep> ep
[04:41] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: all are default 9.04 installs from the CD
[04:41] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  default? huh?  what package did you install for flash support?
[04:42] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, I didn't think it was default I thought you had too install flashplugin-nonefree
[04:42] <hiep> Dr_Willis: Redhat linux 10 <=> fedora 10 ?
[04:42] <Dr_Willis> I normally install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' package to get flash working.
[04:42] <Dr_Willis> hiep:  no idea. I dont do redhat/fedora..
[04:42] <arkham618> Hi all. Anybody have time to answer a quick question?
[04:42] <hiep> Redhat linux 10 <=> fedora 10 ?
[04:42] <JorgeJorgesson> you guys could be right.....all wireless and stuff installed sort of by default
[04:42] <JorgeJorgesson> I just let it rip
[04:42] <Dr_Willis> hiep:  perhaps ask in #redhat
[04:43] <adante> Scunizi: righto,  cheers
[04:43] <Dr_Willis> JorgeJorgesson:  theres no flash plugin installed by default. You can install ubuntu-restricted-extras that will install flash and java and other parts. or install the specific flash package that downloads/installs flash from the adobe site.
[04:43] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, Okay try this JorgeJorgesson uninstall the flashplugin-nonfree and install flash this way and see if it fixes it.....http://newtoubuntu.wordpress.com/2009/04/25/ubuntu-904-no-sound-with-flash-videos/
[04:45] <arkham618> All right, I'll just ask then and see if someone bites. I have Jaunty installed on a Jetbook and my HDD light is blinking every second, on the second, like clockwork. Can't figure out what's accessing the drive with that kind of regularity. Any ideas?
[04:47] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: ok, how do I check to see what version I have installed on these machines?
[04:48] <ratshell> JorgeJorgesson, of flash?
[04:48] <JorgeJorgesson> ratshell: of course
[04:49] <jonathancw> What does it mean when X Server fails to start and says No SCreens Found?
[04:49] <JorgeJorgesson> It seems I installed flash non free
[04:51] <Dr_Willis> jonathancw:  the drivers/X server some how is missconfigured.
[04:51] <mobi-sheep> JorgeJorgesson: about:plugins in Firefox Address Bar
[04:52] <k_graham> new to Ubuntu, went dual boot XP pro on drive 0, Linux drive 2, redid XP (not pro) install and now GRUB still shows XPpro and won't load XP. Must boot with Ultimate Boot CD to access Windows - how does one configure GRUB on hard disk to regain dual boot? Also is it possible to have 2 linuxes on 2nd drive and perhaps a 3 way boot? I'ld delete Windows but have a 8mm camcorder tape converter to USB and only Windows drivers.
[04:52] <k_graham> Should say Linux drive 1 not 2 sorry
