[04:51] <mib_mib> Izinucs: okay kewl
[04:51] <JackJelinek> does anyone know how to get a Creative Labs SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio 24-BIT PCI Sound Card working on the newest ubuntu distro?
[04:52] <aLemmer1> I'll check that out.
[04:52] <john__> greezmunkey: http://paste.ubuntu.com/450887/ is this what your looking for
[04:52] <thon0925> anyway, I've done data recovery before, but how would I go about retrieving photos from a drive that has been formatted over in EXT4?
[04:52] <greezmunkey> JackJelinek: if you take it out of your computer, and throw it really hard it makes a whooshing shound.
[04:52] <greezmunkey> s/shound/sound
[04:52] <wraanger> acerimmer_ : thanks, will look
[04:52] <Jordan_U> wraanger: If you really want a mininimal install, then you can use the minimal CD and only install what you want.
[04:52] <wraanger> thanks for answers, ppl
[04:52] <Arouca> hiii
[04:52] <Jordan_U> !minimal | wraanger
[04:53] <tucemiux> thon0925, has it been long since the hard drive was formatted over??
[04:53] <JackJelinek> hmmm, i'll try that. i'll get back to you on how that worked ;) buyt really do you have any idea how to get it working?"
[04:53] <thon0925> no, just recently
[04:53] <greezmunkey> john__: yes, see if you have a file /etc/X11/xorg.conf - if so paste the contents.
[04:54] <tucemiux> thon0925, if you havent written to it there's a **big** chance you can recover the entire partition, head over to the forum, the same thing happened to me and I was able to recover a partition
[04:54] <thon0925> I know some of the files will be gone, since it's a small drive and system files were probably written over some pictures
[04:54] <kiamo> hi
[04:54] <john__> greezmunkey: you got it
[04:54] <decay33> nothing is working for my .sit file no is helping me
[04:55] <whitechap> I am installing some CPAN modules on Ubuntu.   Some of the dependency modules are not installing.  The error message is I do not have the rights to install.
[04:55] <thon0925> He's bringing the laptop back tomorrow, so I'll see if TestDisk can recover it
[04:55] <kiamo> When I try to access sync options in evolution it says "the GNOME pilot tools do not appear to be installed".  Do I need them in order to sync my calendar with my phone?
[04:56] <cuwoom> Can I upgrade Maverick alpha?
[04:56] <duckx0r> i just updated my video card driver and now i'm having a problem that the radeon driver doesn't work, but when i use vesa kdm comes up and i can log in, but before the desktop loads, i go back to the login screen. I would really appreciate if someone could help me with this.
[04:56] <acovrig> I have a laptop and a server, how do I have the laptop sync w/the server with a progressbar? I've tried rsync and unison
[04:57] <greezmunkey> decay33: where did you get the file?
[04:57] <wraanger> Jordan_U: thanks
[04:58] <Jordan_U> wraanger: You're welcome.
[04:58] <tucemiux> kiamo, what type of phone do you have?
[04:58] <decay33> greezmunkey tucows.com for linux
[04:58] <john__> greezmunkey: http://paste.ubuntu.com/450890/
[04:58] <greezmunkey> decay33: better question, what is it? maybe a "site"??
[04:59] <Asquad> sup
[04:59] <tucemiux> acovrig, you dont use the GUI unison?
[04:59] <Asquad> just got U.E 2.7
[04:59] <Asquad> so awsome
[04:59] <hagebake> When I try to install sysprof-module-source with module-assistant, it says "the headers for the target kernel could not be found". But I already installed the headers package, and m-a said that same package is already the newest version.
[04:59] <tucemiux> !ot | Asquad
[05:00] <rollman> hmmm i noticed if you have a problem and want to know where to go if you got a working computer you can usually find it on youtube ;)
[05:00] <acovrig> tucemiux, how do i have it quit when done?
[05:00] <kiamo> tucemiux, its a nokia 6120c
[05:01] <kanhiya> is there any GUI TOOL to connect to internet using bluetooth modem
[05:01] <greezmunkey> john__: If you change your resolution to 1024x768, do you see the tearing?
[05:01] <greezmunkey> decay33: how big is the file?
[05:02] <john__> greezmunkey: ill let you know
[05:02] <tucemiux> acovrig, first fire up unison and it'll check for changes, if it finds any changes it will show you graphically what location will be updated, afterwards all files get updated, you can see the progress on ALL files
[05:03] <decay33> greezmunkey 565 kb
[05:03] <acovrig> trucemix, it works just fine for syncing, but when it is done, it just sits there til I click Quit
[05:03] <john__> greezmunkey: yea it still tears and it looks like crap
[05:04] <greezmunkey> john__: ok, put it back for now.
[05:04] <tucemiux> kiamo, ive never had a nokia but on my HTC phone I had to install the software that allows you to see the phone, I think it was nsync, cant remember, after that I installed the modules I use with the software, like for example evolution for e-mail contacts.  If your phone is configured similarly you might have to download the app that lets ubuntu see the hardware then the module that you want to sync, like some module for evolution
[05:05] <kiamo> tucemiux, aaah ok, thanks :)
[05:05] <rollman> kanhiya have u tried the ubuntu software center? click applications, ubuntu software center and search internet icon maybe can find what u are looking for
[05:05] <tucemiux> acovrig, that's pretty much how unison works unless you want to try the non-gui way
[05:06] <tucemiux> kiamo, head over to the forums, you might find step by step instructions

[05:07] <blue_fox> Dougdoug4, did you try google first?
[05:07] <yillkid> But I want just using official installation method .

[05:08] <blue_fox> lol, i didnt.... i asked if he already looked
[05:08] <yillkid> I want to know other method to install ubuntu base system .
[05:08] <tucemiux> ok
[05:09] <yillkid> The official method, thanks. :)
[05:09] <blue_fox> yillkid, where are you held up?
[05:09] <tucemiux> yillkid, ask again -- all in one line-- so that people can understand you
[05:09] <yillkid> blue_fox: Hi, I want to install ubuntu base system less than 538 MB, using any official install method .
[05:10] <yillkid> Hi, I want to install ubuntu base system less than 538 MB, using any official install method .
[05:10] <wildbat> I have a problem with the lid button. the system won't react to the the button unless system was suspended once; and after the suspension, the screen off for 0.5 sec at the moment  the button is pressed and released.
[05:10] <blue_fox> yillkid, ok.. sorry i just signed on, didnt get what u need help with
[05:10] <kanhiya> my laptop is capable of providing 1280x800 but in ubuntu 10.04 it is providing just only 800x600 and it was looking very ugly. how to get rid of it , i have tried to change resolution from system>prefence>monitor but there were only two options 800x600 and 640x??? . howdo i get higher resolution
[05:10] <greezmunkey> john__: the tearing you are seeing has to do with your vsync, but there is possibly a way to fix that without having to manually edit your xorg.conf file. Have you run 'sudo nvidia-xconfig' at all?
[05:11] <yillkid> blue_fox: Hi, I want to install ubuntu base system less than 538 MB(using "debootstrap"), using any official install method .
[05:11] <john__> greezemunkey: i have not ill give that a try
[05:11] <wildbat> !resolution | kanhiya \
[05:12] <yillkid> blue_fox:  Or give me any google keyword, but I want not the base system un-support ubuntu package server (source.list)
[05:12] <wildbat> yillkid, you mean RAM or hdd sapace?
[05:12] <yillkid> wildbat: HDD .
[05:12] <oligo> the internet slows to a crawl on 8.10, 9.10 and 10.04 when using ethernet what can i do about this
[05:13] <tucemiux> kanhiya, first of all, have you installed the drivers for the video card on your laptop?
[05:13] <wildbat> yillkid, just use minimal CD
[05:14] <kanhiya> tucemiux: i have checked from hardware drivers but no propertiary drivers was used
[05:14] <yillkid> wildbat: How many the system size after install minimal CD？
[05:14] <tucemiux> oligo, does your internet work fine using another computer on the same connection?
[05:14] <Dougdoug4> Hello!
[05:14] <drizzt_> kanhiya, what in your video card?
[05:15] <wildbat> yillkid, i forgot ~ i think is about 100MB
[05:15] <tucemiux> kanhiya, there's your first clue, what type of machine do you have? manufacturer and model?
[05:15] <Dougdoug4> I finished Step 2 of the Ubuntu 10.04 install, but it isn't making it's shift to step 3...
[05:15] <oligo> yes, it even works fine on wireless but that's not a problem. I've tried the common things suggested on the forums; disabling ipv6 etc , but it doesn't seem to help
[05:15] <tucemiux> !hello | Dougdoug4
[05:15] <Dougdoug4> It's been loading for like 10 minutes
[05:16] <yillkid> wildbat: The minimal CD is : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD ??????
[05:16] <tucemiux> oligo, it could be the NIC is going bad, have you tried testing with a live CD?
[05:16] <rollman> in my my other laptop the sound driver is missing how do i get that back i have no sound?
[05:16] <wildbat> yillkid, yes
[05:16] <tucemiux> rollman, did you use to have sound at some point?
[05:16] <calmsiva> even after installing thro synaptic - wine is not showing in the applications list - using 10.04 - need help
[05:16] <kanhiya> tucemiux: i have a laptop and it sis m671/771 graphic card
[05:16] <yillkid> wildbat: OK ... thanks a lot . :)
[05:16] <rollman> tucemiux yes
[05:17] <wildbat> yillkid, you won;t have gui ~ btw
[05:17] <daveyboy> calmsiva, occasionally the menu does not update right away. I've found I needed to log out and back in sometimes.
[05:17] <calmsiva> wine not displayed in the system tools
[05:17] <drizzt_> kanhiya, then linux isn't your OS
[05:17] <tucemiux> rollman, run lspci -v and let me know what sound card you have
[05:17] <calmsiva> daveyboy :  did that twice yesterday, and also restarted twice - still no luck
[05:18] <daveyboy> Oh..
[05:18] <GoddessNemesis> !ukonline
[05:18] <oligo> well, what's really strange, and makes me think it's not the NIC is that using google (maps, images, shopping etc) is very quick, but any other website will not load, yet i can ping some of them, like ubuntuforums.org with a fast reply
[05:18] <rollman> tucemiux k i go get it and boot i'll be back let u know
[05:18] <Dougdoug4> Hello. The Ubuntu 10.04 install has been stuck on Step 2 for over ten minutes... It won't load past it....
[05:18] <calmsiva> initially installed wine using ubuntu tweak - No display in the System Tools.  then uninstalled, then installed using Synaptic - the same problem persists
[05:19] <Dougdoug4> Any help?
[05:19] <calmsiva> yeah - need help on this
[05:19] <daveyboy> calmsiva, wine isn't in the system tools entry for me
[05:19] <daveyboy> It has it's own
[05:19] <[BG]Zlobi> Hello from Bulgaria, I am tryying to set the encoding of 10.04 here, for CP1251, KOIR8, UTF8, so that all of them work at the same time
[05:19] <calmsiva> Oops - sorry.  But still it does not show anywhere
[05:19] <tucemiux> kanhiya, sounds like you want to use the forums, my own video card on my laptop didnt get all of its functionalities implemented in ubuntu, the resolution works fine though but that's about it, I suggest you hit the forum or keep asking here until someone that has the hardware you have knows a fix
[05:19] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, you need only utf-8
[05:20] <[BG]Zlobi> No I don't
[05:20] <daveyboy> Maybe that's an idea why
[05:20] <[BG]Zlobi> Want a screenshot?
[05:20] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, iconv support all cyr encoding out-of-box
[05:20] <calmsiva> I dont understand what you were trying
[05:20] <calmsiva> how do I check whether it was properly installed or not !!!
[05:20] <[BG]Zlobi> OK, will apt for iconv
[05:20] <[BG]Zlobi> Thanks, brb :)
[05:21] <tucemiux> kanhiya, you can try this thread: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-sis-771671-mirage-3-video-drivers-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid.html
[05:21] <[BG]Zlobi> referred by another pachage
[05:23] <calmsiva> is there anywhere I could get this resolved - please
[05:23] <rollman> tucmiux my bad it rebooted with sound thx it's working now
[05:24] <tucemiux> rollman, :-)
[05:25] <rollman> yeah it's working :)
[05:26] <[BG]Zlobi> well, seems like no fix...
[05:26] <rollman> i don't know why it works now i rebooted 3 times with no change
[05:27] <[BG]Zlobi> rollman, it is having Windows manners
[05:27] <greezmunkey> oligo: when you ping, you can increase the size of the packets sent: ping -s 512 {ip addr} , then ping -s 1024 {ip addr}, etc to see if the size of packet is the source of the problem, it the performance drops off severely, then perhaps it's an MTU issu.
[05:27] <kanhiya> drizzt_: i have ubuntu 10.04 but right now i am using windows to assist from all of you because i can't connect to internet via bluetooth using ubuntu
[05:27] <rollman> lol
[05:28] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, what's your problem exactly?
[05:28] <rollman> i haven't used windows in awhile
[05:28] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, I have old files (NTFS, inherited from windows days)
[05:29] <[BG]Zlobi> And they show as ??? and (invalid encoding)
[05:29] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, with bulgarian names?
[05:29] <drunkncrew> f
[05:29] <[BG]Zlobi> And I cant manipulate them, for example DC++ crashes on hash
[05:29] <Tac_Home> so, I installed the LAMP server via tasksel, but I can't figure out what to do next.  going to 'localhost' in a browser doesn't work, I tried 'service httpd start' and it says it's an unrecognized service...
[05:29] <[BG]Zlobi> Yes, mainly, a Russian folder too
[05:29] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, are they on NTFS drive now?
[05:29] <[BG]Zlobi> Yes they are
[05:30] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, are you using ntfs-3g driver?
[05:30] <[BG]Zlobi> Yes, I mean I mounted them...
[05:31] <[BG]Zlobi> So my NTFS partitions are writable
[05:31] <drizzt_> with "-t ntfs3g"?
[05:31] <[BG]Zlobi> No, with a GUI NTFS tool from Administration :P
[05:32] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, could you paste the relevant line from 'mount' output?
[05:32] <[BG]Zlobi> well, let me copy a single one to ext3
[05:32] <[BG]Zlobi> ok, sec
[05:32] <drunkncrew> hello all
[05:32] <[BG]Zlobi> /dev/sda2 on /media/ARCHIVE type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096)
[05:33] <HotTuna> [1160996.523321] b44: eth0: powering down PHY means my NIC is dead right ?
[05:33] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, try remount that drive adding 'utf8' option
[05:33] <Esat> hi
[05:34] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, could you please give me the line to paste at the term?
[05:34] <drizzt_> sudo umount /dev/sda2
[05:35] <[BG]Zlobi> ready
[05:35] <drizzt_> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o ro,nosuid,user,utf8 /dev/sda2
[05:35] <scottj> Is there a command that allows you to click on a window and it will display it's geometry values?
[05:37] <rollman> anyone know if ubuntu has a safemode or something that allows you to restore the system settings in the event that something goes amiss?
[05:37] <[BG]Zlobi> no, gives help, imo needs ntfs after -t?
[05:37] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_,
[05:37] <JackStoner> scottj, i think there's a setting for that in compiz
[05:38] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, wait a sec, need to check something
[05:38] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, ok, thank you for your time
[05:39] <greezmunkey> scottj: xwininfo
[05:40] <scottj> greezmunkey: thanks

[05:41] <cps> Hello
[05:44] <SReject> Need some help with Wine. I have a partion of my drive for ubuntu. and a partion for windows. How do i set up wine so it uses the windows partion
[05:46] <wildbat> #winehq | SReject
[05:46] <[BG]Zlobi> SReject, why do you need this, if I may ask?
[05:46] <SReject> wildbat thank you
[05:46] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, it's strange, i have just 'rw,user,exec,nosuid' in options and unicode characters work fine; do you have ntfs-3g installed and system locale set to 'bg_BG.UTF-8'?
[05:46] <greezmunkey> SReject: I think that maybe your question is based on the presumption that wine and windows are the same. They're not.
[05:46] <SReject> greezmunkey i know they aren't :)
[05:46] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, these ARE NOT unicode :)
[05:47] <[BG]Zlobi> I suspect they are cp1251
[05:47] <[BG]Zlobi> I can create new fine
[05:47] <[BG]Zlobi> But cant read these
[05:47] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, you cannot have cp1251 names on NTFS partition. did you create them from Linux?
[05:48] <[BG]Zlobi> ok, win1251 then
[05:48] <[BG]Zlobi> I have always thought these are sinonims
[05:49] <[BG]Zlobi> Because we linux folks hate the win part
[05:49] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, filenames on NTFS partitions are always unicode
[05:50] <drizzt_> was the files with incorrect names created in windows or in linux?
[05:50] <SReject> basically it's seeing "/home/user/..." as vitual drive C and i want it set to the windows partion
[05:50] <aLemmer1> Greetings!
[05:50] <drizzt_> SReject, there must be Wine control panel where you assign drives for wine
[05:50] <artinstartin> in sound settings is a function to amplify the sound. how can i permanently set it to high?
[05:51] <[BG]Zlobi> oh well
[05:51] <[BG]Zlobi> sec
[05:51] <aLemmer1> Google Chrome informs me that it shutdown incorrectly upon launching, unless I manually press 'x' to close it. I believe this is because how my shutdown is handled.
[05:52] <aLemmer1> Oh nevermind, coded it.
[05:52] <MK-ULTRA> anybody here know if Linux has burning software that handles mds files with iso's?
[05:52] <MK-ULTRA> I've been looking around can't fine anything.  Closest thing was acetone 120
[05:53] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_,  http://tcd.zapto.org/b/scr.png
[05:53] <xpike> Can someone help me install this package : sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.6 --> E: Couldn't find package libssl0.9.6
[05:53] <xpike>
[05:53] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_,  http://tcd.zapto.org/b/Scr.png
[05:54] <ejwaxx> MK-ULTRA - there is a package mdf2iso in the repos that will convert an mdf to iso, if that's any help
[05:54] <AAA> xpike  on 10.4 it should be $ apt-get install libssl0.9.8
[05:54] <MK-ULTRA> ejwaxx:  thanks, but what about mds?
[05:54] <[BG]Zlobi> xpike, try with libssl and pressing TAB
[05:55] <[BG]Zlobi> xpike, will give the available ones
[05:55] <xpike> im getting the 9.8 one
[05:55] <[BG]Zlobi> so use it :)
[05:55] <drizzt_> i had that once, but it was on fat32 drive...
[05:55] <ejwaxx> mk-ultra: an mds isn't a disc image, just metadata
[05:55] <xpike> it says I have to reboot my system, is it really required?
[05:56] <greezmunkey> MK-ULTRA: Have you seen this? :http://sathyasays.com/2008/11/11/mounting-and-burning-iso-mdf-nrgnero-files-and-cd-images-in-linux-in-1-click
[05:56] <[BG]Zlobi> Probably yes
[05:56] <MK-ULTRA> ejwaxx:  I know but i think it may have important layer break info on it
[05:56] <[BG]Zlobi> Reboot
[05:56] <Guest27198> hi you bun too!
[05:56] <artinstartin> xpike: to make the system changes complete yes
[05:56] <[BG]Zlobi> xpike, at least we don't support old boots :P
[05:56] <Guest27198> whats the best os
[05:57] <drizzt_> Guest27057, debian sid
[05:57] <MK-ULTRA> greezmunkey:  yeah, I'm using acetone to mount
[05:57] <[BG]Zlobi> Guest27198, no such os
[05:57] <[BG]Zlobi> Depends on application
[05:57] <xpike> lol
[05:57] <[BG]Zlobi> Even Windows can do smth
[05:57] <SirMoo> :/ You can't have a best when there are flaws.
[05:57] <xpike> all I wanna do is install yahoo instant messenger
[05:57] <xpike> for linux
[05:57] <xpike> lol
[05:57] <uBen> Any help converting a .rpm to a .deb?
[05:57] <[BG]Zlobi> xpike, there are alternative messengers
[05:57] <SirMoo> Why not use Pidgin, xpike?
[05:57] <xpike> with webcam and mic features?
[05:57] <[BG]Zlobi> On the same protocol
[05:58] <Jordan_U> uBen: What are you trying to install?
[05:58] <drizzt_> uBen, man alien
[05:58] <AAA> uBen  alien
[05:58] <wise_crypt> !find alien lucid | uBen
[05:58] <xpike> pidgin sucks, it only works well with aim lol
[05:58] <uBen> bitpim
[05:58] <spicyWith> anyone know how to install phpmyadmin in ubuntu as a virtual host in apache, so as phpmyadmin.domain.com?
[05:58] <MeatCurtains> Am I disconnected?
[05:58] <Jordan_U> uBen: pitpim is available in the repositories
[05:58] <artinstartin> :)
[05:58] <[BG]Zlobi> spicyWith, why not MySQL Admin?
[05:58] <Jordan_U> MeatCurtains: Yes.
[05:59] <SirMoo> o.O Pidgin is the best. I use it on Windows. It's kind of nice to have a good  multi protocal messenger that does not kill my computer ( compared to yahoo! and live. )
[05:59] <xpike> Also, is there a way I can recompile my 64bit hardy heron version to a 32bit hard heron version
[05:59] <uBen> Jordan_U: BitPim, or was that a typo?
[05:59] <spicyWith> [BG]Zlobi: never tried it, is it better?
[05:59] <[BG]Zlobi> SirMoo, ;)
[05:59] <wise_crypt> xpixe: eh ? i use pidgin with two account with yahoo and it works flawleslly what do you mean ?
[05:59] <xpike> recompile the kernel for cpu archecture or does that require a new install
[05:59] <Jordan_U> uBen: That was a typo, sudo apt-get install bitpim
[05:59] <[BG]Zlobi> spicyWith, Well I use it, creates users, chemas, grants permitions
[05:59] <xpike> well the pidgin that I have does not work with yahoo or msn
[05:59] <[BG]Zlobi> what more :)
[06:00] <greezmunkey> MK-ULTRA: the only other thing I found that may be of help is here: mdf audio extractor did the job for me: http://www.sqweek.com/sqweek/index.php?p=5
[06:00] <SirMoo> ...   I appreciate the help folks.
[06:00] <Guest27198> SirMoo, y does it kill your computer
[06:01] <uBen> Zlobi: Alien didn't work for me for some reason, something about scripts
[06:01] <abuayyoub> hi all, can someone please help me with a question I have about Par and Par2?
[06:01] <Jordan_U> uBen: Always check the repositories first.
[06:01] <dotblank> !ask
[06:01] <n2diy> uBen, alien converts RPMs to Debs
[06:01] <SirMoo> MSN/Live and YIM are not friendly if you have older windows computer, or if you're trying to multi task. :/ They're slow.
[06:01] <MK-ULTRA> ya know what I think it is.
[06:01] <wise_crypt> xpike : sudo apt-get remove pidgin --purge sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get install pidgin ( i use finch and its also works)
[06:01] <[BG]Zlobi> uBen, have you tried command line?
[06:01] <uBen> Jordan_U: Thanks, will remember
[06:01] <SirMoo> Fince is for Apple I thought?
[06:01] <xpike> whoops i forgot to remove and purge
[06:02] <[BG]Zlobi> uBen, look for a manual to install Alien and proceed
[06:02] <uBen> Zlobi: That's what I was using
[06:02] <Jordan_U> uBen: You're welcome.
[06:02] <abuayyoub> I have a folder wiith 25 files in it, and 25 par2 files is there a way I can check them all at one time as opposed to one by one?
[06:02] <spicyWith> [BG]Zlobi: any reason you use it over phpmyadmin? Not questioning, just curious, i.e. is it better in any way?
[06:02] <n2diy> Zlobi, it is in synaptic.
[06:02] <MK-ULTRA> maybe the mds has information about the sessions.  like maybe it is mixed audio and data.
[06:02] <[BG]Zlobi> spicyWith, much less nerves on deployment
[06:02] <[BG]Zlobi> Just a program
[06:03] <xpike> wow now its taking long to load
[06:03] <greezmunkey> MK-ULTRA: That's what I understand...
[06:03] <xpike> pidgin doesnt work for me now :(
[06:03] <xpike> holy smokes
[06:03] <LexArt> hi2all :)
[06:03] <xpike> pidgin crashed on me
[06:03] <MK-ULTRA> I guess just like a bin/cue
[06:04] <wise_crypt> xpike: you have remove it you need to install it again after purgin
[06:04] <wise_crypt> xpike: *purging
[06:04] <[BG]Zlobi> xpike, Iro Maiden ruleZ \__/
[06:04] <spicyWith> [BG]Zlobi: how so?
[06:04] <unop> abuayyoub, check them for what?
[06:05] <[BG]Zlobi> spicyWith, I just have bad memories of my attampts to make PHPMyAdmin work
[06:05] <[BG]Zlobi> I know many people use it, I also did on Windows
[06:05] <wise_crypt> xpike : 1. sudo apt-get remove pidgin --purge 2. sudo apt-get autoremove 3. sudo apt-get install pidgin << folow this step one by one
[06:05] <spicyWith> your memories are my present feeligns..
[06:05] <younghow> ???
[06:06] <xpike> i did that
[06:06] <spicyWith> [BG]Zlobi: your memories are my present feeligns..
[06:06] <xpike> i did it in order
[06:06] <xpike> i think its because i have the 64bit edition
[06:06] <[BG]Zlobi> spisyWith, Ok, then just stfu and try MySQL Admin :D
[06:06] <xpike> 64 bit of everything just sucks
[06:06] <wise_crypt> xpike : have you installed pidgin from source ?
[06:06] <Guest27198> xpike, y
[06:06] <unop> [BG]Zlobi, language ...
[06:07] <xpike> skype doesnt work, gyachi doesnt work
[06:07] <wise_crypt> xpike : owh i c 64bit i wonder lol
[06:07] <xpike> im afraid to even update xchat
[06:07] <[BG]Zlobi> oh well, there was an emo at the end of line
[06:07] <isw> Anyone ever hear of anyone getting 3 monitors working on ubuntu with one of those ati 5870 cards?
[06:07] <xpike> this is great now my pidgin doesnt work
[06:07] <xpike> is there a way I can find which version I had before
[06:08] <MK-ULTRA> well I went ahead and used wine with magiciso
[06:08] <Guest27198> any good linux books
[06:08] <[BG]Zlobi> xpike, yes, ask for the default from smo with a fresh install
[06:08] <SirMoo> ._. You've broke pidgin?

[06:08] <wise_crypt> xpike: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=658244
[06:09] <xpike> why do they release 64 bit editions of stuff if it doesnt work
[06:09] <xpike> im seriously thinking about going back to 32 bit
[06:09] <n2diy> Ouest27198, yes, the Rute Manual, it's online, and in synaptiic
[06:09] <sebsebseb> n2diy: the what?
[06:09] <[BG]Zlobi> xpike, because it is the mid-period now
[06:09] <spicyWith> [BG]Zlobi: I feel like installing it would be pretty much as complicated, if I want to put it in a subdomain in apache2....
[06:09] <wise_crypt> xpike: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=658244 << this is a good tutorial about that
[06:09] <acerimmer_> xpike: it does work it's just not for everyone and the documentation isn't clear on who the best candidates are
[06:10] <n2diy> sebsebseb: the Rute Manual
[06:10] <sebsebseb> n2diy: not heard of it
[06:10] <[BG]Zlobi> spycyWith, it is not even the same, you do not need a browser
[06:10] <xpike> i thought this was the time for 64 bit to shine lol
[06:10] <acerimmer_> xpike: if you're running 4 g or less ram 32 bit is better for you
[06:10] <MK-ULTRA> ha ha great, didin't find my burner now.
[06:10] <n2diy> sebsebseb: check it out.
[06:10] <sebsebseb> n2diy: its in the repo?
[06:10] <xpike> i got 3g of ram
[06:10] <[BG]Zlobi> acerimmer_, not true :P
[06:10] <acerimmer_> xpike: then you should run 32
[06:11] <n2diy> sebsebseb: yes, and online.
[06:11] <wise_crypt> xpike: just foolow the link i gave you in the forum hope that would help
[06:11] <xpike> how do i find out the error message of a program that doesnt run
[06:11] <MK-ULTRA> xpike:  check /var/log
[06:11] <[BG]Zlobi> acerimmer_, and what about the new multicore CPUs, optimized for 64bit?
[06:11] <MK-ULTRA> er dmesg?
[06:12] <xpike> i wanna see why pidgin crashes
[06:12] <SReject> anyone know of a decent media player(must be able to play mp3's and 4's) that is able to search a network drive/folder to obtain it's libary?
[06:12] <acerimmer_> [BG]Zlobi: i don't know anything about that.
[06:12] <wise_crypt> xpike: ?
[06:12] <SReject> besides rhythembox
[06:12] <MK-ULTRA> alright, is an mds file even needed?
[06:12] <xpike> like ~$ pidgin -debug mode or something
[06:12] <[BG]Zlobi> acerimmer_, on 32 bit you kinda loose many features of your CPU and speed
[06:12] <SirMoo> Can Audacious search for files?
[06:12] <doug_> hello
[06:13] <AAA> xpike  you can try using strace
[06:13] <SReject> hello doug_
[06:13] <LexArt> hello
[06:13] <doug_> I have a question maybe someone here can answer
[06:13] <wise_crypt> http://polarbeardk.blogspot.com/2008/01/build-pidgin-from-source-710-64bit.html
[06:13] <SirMoo> doug_ I'm pretty sure you're suppose to just ask the question flat out.
[06:13] <SReject> doug_ then ask it :)
[06:13] <[BG]Zlobi> acerimmer_, I would say if the PC is x64 compliant, install x64
[06:13] <doug_> if I download 10.4 today will it be more updated version than the one I got a month ago
[06:14] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[06:14] <AAA> xpike  I suggest using -o filename to redirect all the output
[06:14] <SReject> doug. Yes.
[06:14] <doug_> oh ok great
[06:14] <SReject> then recently updated the kernal
[06:14] <n2diy> doug, what did you dl a month ago?
[06:14] <SReject> they*
[06:14] <acerimmer_> [BG]Zlobi: even though the 64 bit kernel is fairly robust, 32 bit apps are not perfectly ported to 64 bit.  the general recommendations i've read are specific regarding the cost benefit to wit; more gigs of ram, try 64.  <=4 gigs, stick with 32.  YMMV
[06:15] <[BG]Zlobi> i. e. updates are periodically included, do reistall with the latest copy (kill the servers ;) )
[06:15] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, there's also "locale=xx_YY.UTF-8" option for ntfs-3g
[06:15] <ActionParsnip> acerimmer_: there's the pae kernel which can access 12gb in 32bit
[06:15] <doug_> another question then, I have an intel centrino pentium M laptop that would not load 10.4 do you know if they have fixed the problem with this?
[06:15] <[BG]Zlobi> wb drizzt_ ok be specific about what I can do
[06:16] <acerimmer_> ActionParsnip: good to know.  ty
[06:16] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: did you md5 test the iso you downloaded
[06:16] <xpike> Haha I foudn out why lol
[06:16] <xpike> 01:15:55) main: exiting because another libpurple client is already running
[06:16] <xpike> lmaooo
[06:16] <[BG]Zlobi> acerimmer_, With the speed of SATA2 RAM is not so important as it was
[06:16] <xpike> i used --debug
[06:16] <wise_crypt> darn
[06:16] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: did you check the burned cd for defects once booted to?
[06:16] <n2diy> doug, did you send it back to get repaired?
[06:16] <doug_> ActionParsnip, it was a good ISO I md5sum it, it does not like the hardware on this laptop
[06:17] <wise_crypt> xpike: killall
[06:17] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, first, what is your LANG variable?
[06:17] <ActionParsnip> !bootoptions | doug_
[06:17] <[BG]Zlobi> bg_BG
[06:17] <doug_> ActionParsnip, yes, CD worked in other machine passed self test
[06:17] <xpike> yahoo still doesnt work
[06:17] <xpike> on pidgin
[06:17] <[BG]Zlobi> I think you asking this
[06:17] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, and encoding? 'UTF-8'?
[06:17] <ActionParsnip> Xpike_: have you use the pidgin ppa?
[06:17] <[BG]Zlobi> nope, win1251
[06:18] <[BG]Zlobi> now cp1251 I guess
[06:18] <doug_> ActionParsnip, it was not a problem with the iso or cd, cd was/is good it did not like my hardware on this laptop
[06:18] <xpike> and msn says  : Our protocol is not supported by the server
[06:18] <wise_crypt> ActionParsnip: he uses 64bit arc
[06:18] <xpike> pidgin ppa? what is that?
[06:18] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: I know. I read it last time you said. Try some boot options
[06:18] <[BG]Zlobi> But I have created some utf-8 content
[06:19] <wise_crypt> !info pidgin-data | xpike
[06:19] <ActionParsnip> xpike: its a repo which will have a later build. It may help
[06:19] <yillkid> wildbat: Hi ... :)
[06:20] <wildbat> yillkid, hi
[06:20] <xpike> all I really want is a yahoo instant messenger that has access to the chatroom and webcam and microphone features
[06:20] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, going for a breakfast... be back :)
[06:20] <wise_crypt> xpike: mean while you can also ask in #pidgin
[06:20] <[BG]Zlobi> Please tell him, so that he doesn't need to scroll
[06:20] <ActionParsnip> xpike: gyache does that I believe
[06:20] <yillkid> wildbat: I install ubuntu with minimal CD. But my base system size is 678 MB.
[06:20] <xpike> i dont wanna mess with pidgin anymore, pidgin is for  the birds
[06:20] <doug_> ActionParsnip, I was able to getit to install with an xubuntu alt iso then boot into something like safemode then ran updates installed but still it would not boot normally
[06:21] <xpike> gyachi i have but it doesnt work either lol I may need help with that one
[06:21] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: sounds like video is screwing you. Set the safe vga boot option and it may help
[06:21] <LexArt> hello, world! What impressions about Ubuntu 10.04? Now I'm using 9.10 and I don't know if it's needed to update :)
[06:21] <xpike> gyachi: error while loading shared libraries: libgtkhtml-2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[06:21] <wildbat> yillkid, and ?
[06:22] <ActionParsnip> Xpike: that's all I know. I haven't used yahoo chat in years. I definately recommend the pidgin ppa
[06:22] <ActionParsnip> Xpike: if you get errors like that, search for the file online and you will find the package it belongs to
[06:23] <yillkid> wildbat: But you tell me the base system of this version is 1xx MB. I don't  know what mistake I do.
[06:23] <doug_> ActionParsnip, well I don't want to install it ifvideo will only workin safe mode after that you know
[06:23] <doug_> ActionParsnip, I mean once I get it on there then is there likely a way to make it operate normally?
[06:23] <AAA> xpike  libgtkhtml2-0
[06:24] <ShroudedCloud> Hey, can I get some assistance on a Notify-OSD issue? It displays system things, but not common things (like messages from RhythmBox or Empathy)
[06:24] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: you said updates fix it so i'd roll with it. You can always run a backup of the OS files / partition then go for it and restore if its bad
[06:24] <drizzt_> yillkid, if you want to play, try dsl
[06:24] <wildbat> yillkid, yes it should be just 100MB ~ unless you install GNOME or KDE
[06:24] <drizzt_> yillkid, ubuntu is for the work
[06:24] <doug_> ActionParsnip, no I said updates did not fix it but that was a month ago
[06:24] <wise_crypt> xpike: apt-cache search << kick ash
[06:25] <drizzt_> wildbat, if you install  gnome or kde , the system will be > 2GB
[06:25] <doug_> ActionParsnip, I don't careabout any dataon this hdd though nothing valueable
[06:25] <yillkid> drizzt_: I know DSL, but I don,t want to out of ubuntu official support.
[06:25] <drizzt_> yillkid, you cannot make it 100 MB, never
[06:26] <drizzt_> drizzt_, the kernel only is 90 MB
[06:26] <yillkid> wildbat: Yes, just only base system, I have not install any packages yet.
[06:26] <Tac_Home> so, I did 'sudo tasksel remove lamp-server' and it GUTTED my machine... .no gnome, no anything, can't even boot up to anything but a command prompt.... anyone know how in the world that happened?
[06:26] <ShroudedCloud> Hey, can I get some assistance on a Notify-OSD issue? It displays system things, but not common things (like messages from RhythmBox or Empathy)
[06:26] <ActionParsnip> Yillkid: xpud is only a few meg in size but I don't think it will support all your (no doubt) fancy hardware
[06:26] <doug_> I have a toughbook CF-29 by the way
[06:26] <xpike> 64 bit of everything sucks
[06:26] <wildbat> yillkid, and you used 678MB ??
[06:27] <xpike> im sick of this lol
[06:27] <xpike> im going to 32 bit
[06:27] <yillkid> wildbat: Yes , 678 MB.
[06:27] <wise_crypt> :)
[06:27] <yillkid> I just want to install ubuntu as minimal as possible, but I still want the official support .
[06:27] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: i'd try some boot options to get safe vga then see if after you drive up etc it's nice
[06:27] <doug_> should be pretty standard parts it's intel graphics and intel chipset, full centrino notebook
[06:28] <ActionParsnip> !minimal | yillkid
[06:28] <doug_> ActionParsnip, drive up? what does that mean?
[06:28] <wildbat> yillkid, you can try du -h ~ see what's taking the spaces
[06:28] <xpike> ~$ sudo apt-get remove gyachi
[06:28] <xpike> Reading package lists... Done

[06:28] <drizzt_> yillkid, you just did
[06:28] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: get drivers for hardware etc
[06:28] <xpike> how come i cant remove gyachi
[06:28] <ActionParsnip> Xpike: its not on the ubuntu repo
[06:28] <yillkid> Except for "debootstrap" (538MB) What could I do ?
[06:28] <ShroudedCloud> No one?
[06:28] <ActionParsnip> Xpike: you need a deb or ppa
[06:29] <doug_> ActionParsnip, wherecan I obtain hardware drivers ? perhaps I should do that in advance of installing the new version as this is the only pc I have on me right now
[06:29] <shadows090> Hello all. I have a ssh server set up on my LAN (static ip), I can ssh into it while on the lan and have set up port forwarding on my router for port 22 (both incoming and outgoing). I cannot ssh into my server if i attempt to connect through the external IP. Is there anything additional I need to do on my ssh server? I am concerned that the packets from my server may just have the router IP as the source destination
[06:29] <xpike> how did i install gyachi ? from source? I dont remember doing that
[06:29] <ActionParsnip> Xpike: search software centre for it. Maybe its called something different
[06:29] <drizzt_> yillkid, you have no debootstrap folder if you've finished intalling
[06:29] <xpike> where in nautilus/gnome i need to go to uninstall a program
[06:29] <yillkid> wildbat: Yes, I do. I using df -h to calculate the space, 678 MB, I sure .
[06:30] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: depends hugely on the hardware. Some will be supported by default. Some may require compiling
[06:30] <bodzilla> xspike look in synaptic
[06:30] <doug_> ActionParsnip, I have a toughbook cf-29
[06:30] <wildbat> yillkid, you can uninstall it if you are done with the debootstrap, du -h not df -h
[06:30] <xpike> where in nautilus/gnome i need to go to uninstall a program from source
[06:30] <firepilot> Hi there, I'm compiling a kernel for a macbook and I need to include efivars but I don't know how to do this.
[06:30] <doug_> ActionParsnip, all intell stuff inside
[06:30] <firepilot> Could anyone point me in the right direction?
[06:30] <drizzt_> xpike, system, administration, sunaptic package manager
[06:31] <acerimmer_> firepilot: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages
[06:31] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: doesn't mean much dude. We need chip versions etc. Ubuntu can tell you those once booted and you can find guides
[06:31] <doug_> ActionParsnip, I'm booted in ubuntu 9.10 now
[06:31] <xpike> Wow
[06:31] <xpike> nothing shows up
[06:31] <xpike> i installed something I cant remove
[06:31] <ShroudedCloud> No one for Notify OSD?
[06:31] <xpike> gyachi doesnt show up
[06:32] <ShroudedCloud> Been trying to fix it for days, at a loss.
[06:32] <yillkid> wildbat: Sorry my poor Englist, I say, don't using minimal CD installation any more, change to the "debootstrap" method?
[06:32] <firepilot> thanks acerimmer_ although I'm actually just looking for help compiling a kernel.
[06:32] <AAA> xpike  dpkg -L gyachi show files?
[06:32] <greezmunkey> shadows090: remove both rules on your firewall, then restart it, then create an inbound only port 22 to your sshd server - then test again.
[06:32] <drizzt_> xpike, go to source dir and try 'make uninstall'
[06:32] <ActionParsnip> doug_: then run: lspci;lsusb ,and find guides etc. 9.10 is supported until april next year so you can comfortably hang with karmic
[06:32] <doug_> ActionParsnip, is there a term command tomake it tell me about my hardware or do you mean through the gui somewhere?
[06:32] <bodzilla> xspike synaptic will also show dependencies if you add the bar from setting preferences in synaptic for the info widow
[06:32] <xpike> /usr/lib/libgyachi.so
[06:32] <xpike> /usr/bin
[06:32] <xpike> /usr/bin/gyachi
[06:32] <xpike> /usr/bin/gyachivoice
[06:32] <FloodBot1> xpike: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:33] <wildbat> yillkid, you sadi yo installe the debootstrap? and it took 538 MB ?? right?
[06:33] <doug_> ActionParsnip, I need to reinstall anyway cus sound is not working and I broke some other stuff trying to fix it so that's why I was thnking of trying 10.4 again
[06:33] <ShroudedCloud> Hey, can I get some assistance on a Notify-OSD issue? It displays system things, but not common things (like messages from RhythmBox or Empathy)
[06:34] <yillkid> wildbat: Yes "debootstrap is 538 MB", but the minimal CD install is "678 MB"
[06:34] <xpike> im so fustrated >.<
[06:34] <AAA> xpike  hrm. you could try dpkg-reconfigure gyachi then apt-get remove
[06:34] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: then boot live lucid cd with the boot options to make it fly then update / install drivers. Should be ok as karmic works :)
[06:35] <doug_> ActionParsnip, most companysdon't have linux drivers do they though?? I never had to install a driver forlinuxbefore everyting has just worked
[06:35] <wildbat> yillkid, so you just delete/uninstall the debootstrap to free the space?
[06:35] <ActionParsnip> Yillkid: could try lubuntu. Its using about 1.5Gb here I believe.
[06:36] <ShroudedCloud> Anyone at all?
[06:36] <wildbat> ActionParsnip, he have 6XXMB only
[06:36] <yillkid> ActionParsnip: 1.5 GB is too big.
[06:36] <ActionParsnip> yillkid: or there's featherlinux, DSL, puppy linux (puppy uses apt-get afaik now)
[06:36] <ActionParsnip> yillkid: lots of small distros to run at.
[06:36] <Tac_Home> so, I did 'sudo tasksel remove lamp-server' and it GUTTED my machine... .no gnome, no anything, can't even boot up to anything but a command prompt.... anyone know how in the world that happened?
[06:37] <doug_> Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device <<< I have that vid card
[06:37] <yillkid> wildbat: No, I using a new HDD to install ubuntu minimal CD.
[06:37] <Sc00t3r> That's not a video card, Doug.. That's a integrated graphics controller.
[06:37] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: ok then see how it is with lucid using websearches
[06:37] <shadows090> greezmunkey: I apologize for misstating it in my post. I actually only have an inbound port forwarding set up.  I have it set up as external: 22 Internal: 22 protocol: both to ipaddress: (mystaticip). i have enabled and saved changes :-/
[06:37] <Hilikus_> how can i tell which users are using a database?
[06:37] <drizzt_> Tac_Home, who said tasksel works?
[06:38] <yillkid> ActionParsnip: Thank you, but I want not out of support with official ubuntu .
[06:38] <unop> Hilikus_, depends on the database management system.
[06:38] <Tac_Home> drizzt_: well, I sure won't be using it again....
[06:38] <Hilikus_> unop: MYISAM
[06:38] <greezmunkey> shadows090: in a terminal: sudo netstat -antp | grep "LISTEN" - see if sshd is listening...
[06:38] <unop> Hilikus_, probably a question for #mysql then
[06:38] <greezmunkey> shadows090: see what port, etc...
[06:38] <Tac_Home> drizzt_: is there a way to enable wireless, and somehow fix it and get everything back to normal from commandline?
[06:38] <wildbat> yillkid, then use 'du -h' to figure out what took the space, i think is just cache
[06:38] <yillkid> I just want to find a way to install ubuntu, and the size must less than 538 MB .
[06:39] <Sc00t3r> -sigh.- I wish I could get the fan controller to work in 10.04.
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> yillkid: your small space reuirement may force you away from ubuntu. It isn't always the answer
[06:39] <fcwlxd> livecd may be a good choice.
[06:39] <Flannel> yillkid: You can't realistically install Ubuntu on 500MB.  But there are a plethora of other Linux choices
[06:39] <Sc00t3r> yillkid, You can't. Compressing folders from Ubuntu can cause major instability, because of the fact that the more you compress flies, the greater the chance is that something is going to go wrong during the decommpression/compression.
[06:39] <acerimmer_> yillkid: im thinking you might be a candidate for a USB startup disk...
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> Doug_: sudo lshw -C display ,will tell you more about your video card
[06:40] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, I am here :)
[06:40] <Sc00t3r> yillkid, If you want an Ubuntu installation like that, try Lubuntu. It is a 520mb Live CD I believe.
[06:40] <ActionParsnip> Sc00t3r: the livecd uses squashfs. Livecd runs stable no?
[06:40] <geekphreak> howdy all
[06:40] <Sc00t3r> ActionParsnip, The LiveCD is still 680MB.
[06:40] <Flannel> yillkid: Wait, this is a new harddrive that is only 500MB?
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> Sc00t3r: yes but the squashfs allows it to hold nearly double that amount once extracted
[06:41] <Sc00t3r> ActionParsnip, Realistically, unless you want absolutely no room for a cache or anything of the likes..?
[06:41] <MeatCurtains> How can I make my main login root? I'm trying to add folders but it tells me I don't have permission
[06:41] <drizzt_>  sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o ro,nosuid,user,locale="bg_BG.CP1251" /dev/sda2 /media/ARCHIVE or whatever applies
[06:41] <xpike> ./configure --disable-rpath --enable-maintainer-mode --prefix /usr
[06:41] <Flannel> MeatCurtains: Don't use root, use sudo instead.
[06:41] <geekphreak> MeatCurtains: use sudo
[06:41] <Flannel> !sudo | MeatCurtains
[06:41] <yillkid> Flannel: Yes, 538 MB, install using "debootstrap".
[06:41] <xpike> whoops i mean
[06:41] <xpike> configure: error: cannot find include file gpgme.h. Perhaps you need to install the gpgme development package?
[06:41] <doug_> ActionParsnip, I found a post on forum with exact sameproblem and hardware as me
[06:41] <Flannel> yillkid: Your physical hard drive is only 500 MB?  What does debbootstrap have to do with it?
[06:42] <doug_> ActionParsnip, https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/109193
[06:42] <geekphreak> MeatCurtains: enabling root is nto recommended
[06:42] <doug_> ActionParsnip, that is it ifyou are curious
[06:42] <Sc00t3r> sudo facepalm -self
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> yillkid: you could modify the iso to have waaay less apps then reburn that. If you are expecting full media codecs and flash etc then its not going to work with ubuntu as far as I can see. I'd go for puppy. Its awesoem
[06:42] <xpike> how do i install  gpgme.h
[06:42] <doug_> ActionParsnip, I think I will try the solution which worked for that user though, thank you for you assitance
[06:43] <MeatCurtains> I know its not recommended, but I have to have unhindered access to these directories I'm making. I can't even paste files into them
[06:43] <drizzt_> all major distributions use root and have no dangerous sudo
[06:43] <stupidxp> flash and codec not working in ubuntu?
[06:43] <greezmunkey> 500MB HDD, it would hold 20 pics from my camera, heh
[06:43] <yillkid> Flannel: No, my HDD size is 2GB.
[06:43] <acerimmer_> yillkid: consider also DSL - damn small linux
[06:43] <geekphreak> MeatCurtains: well use sudo then :)
[06:43] <Flannel> yillkid: Oh, what is 538MB then?
[06:43] <Flannel> yillkid: Your RAM?
[06:43] <Sc00t3r> Flannel, the Ubuntu installation.
[06:43] <Sc00t3r> Flannel, Or at least, that's what I think he wants?
[06:43] <shadows090> greezmunkey: i have copied and pasted the results to http://pastebin.com/SwVUuTVL
[06:43] <stupidxp> 538mb is like 200 hd pics
[06:43] <yillkid> acerimmer_: Thanks, but I want not out od official ubuntu support.
[06:43] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, used it, but... not working, it is working as sudo mount /dev/sda2
[06:44] <Sc00t3r> stupidxp, Welcome to high quality, high resolution photos.
[06:44] <Tac_Home> drizzt_: is there a way to enable wireless, and somehow fix it and get everything back to normal from commandline?
[06:44] <stupidxp> xD
[06:44] <ActionParsnip> Meatcurtains: use sudo and gksudo. You have full access if you are a member of admin. Logging in as root is no advised and if you start loading apps like irc and web browsers then its hugly foolish
[06:44] <doug_> whatis the latest kernel version they are on now?
[06:44] <[BG]Zlobi> And with BG gives: mount: can't find locale=bg_BG.CP1251 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[06:44] <drizzt_> Tac_Home, what was problem with wireless?
[06:44] <shadows090> greezmunkey: i'm not familiar with that, but i assume that it is listening since I have been able to ssh into the server if I am on the same LAN; only not when i try to use the external IP address
[06:44] <stupidxp> i need an external hd for my camera or a new sd
[06:44] <stupidxp> 12megabixels xD
[06:44] <geekphreak> MeatCurtains: if you want gui based  >> press alt+f2 >> then use gksudo command
[06:44] <e3a133> hello
[06:44] <yillkid> Flannel: 538 MB is the base system size. My ram size is 2GB.
[06:44] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, that mean you made a space somewhere
[06:44] <Tac_Home> drizzt_: no idea how to enable it from the commandline, then is there even some way to fix everything that tasksel broke once I get networking up?
[06:44] <Flannel> yillkid: So, what's your question or problem?
[06:45] <Sc00t3r> stupidxp, Hahah'.  Your storage is way too small. Xpud is about 10mb and boots faster than most people can sneeze
[06:45] <geekphreak> e3a133: hello hi and howdy
[06:45] <drizzt_> Tac_Home, if it's your desktop machine, install 'ubuntu-desktop'
[06:45] <stupidxp> ah, anyone know windows well? where do i find and replace the registry?
[06:45] <e3a133> how are you
[06:45] <Tac_Home> drizzt_: netbook remix
[06:45] <Sc00t3r> ActionParsnip, The newer release of XPud is 83MB.
[06:45] <Flannel> stupidxp: ##windows can help you
[06:45] <geekphreak> stupidxp: eh?
[06:45] <e3a133> hi
[06:46] <Sc00t3r> e3a133, I think we heard you the first time.
[06:46] <geekphreak> e3a133: is that all you can say?
[06:46] <greezmunkey> shadows090: yeah, I know - that last bit was to verify. pm me /etc/ssh/sshd.conf
[06:46] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, no i copy-pasted
[06:46] <Flannel> Hi e3a133, this channel is for Ubuntu support.  If you're looking for a social channel, try #ubuntu-offtopic, Thanks!
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> Sc00t3r: nice. Haven't been keeping up recently. I guess he rolled in the driver pack now?
[06:46] <doug_> anyone know what version of the kernel they are on now?
[06:46] <yillkid> Flannel: I want to find a way to install ubuntu base system, and the OS size must less than 538 MB.
[06:46] <stupidxp> ah but you see i'm using ubuntu and my old ntfs
[06:46] <Flannel> yillkid: Why do you need to do that?
[06:46] <Sc00t3r> ActionParsnip, Yeah. It's a lot like Ubuntu NR. Pretty decent, except for it lacks for what I want- You know, OpenOffice and such.
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> Sc00t3r: still its smaller than puppy now which is up to 120mb these days
[06:47] <e3a133> hi
[06:47] <Sc00t3r> ActionParsnip, Honestly, I think I'd want to smack someone who has less than a 80GB HDD.. Who's not willing to spend the $40 for a 500GB SATA2?
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> Sc00t3r: googledocs takes care of office dude. Less impact on the system itself ;)
[06:47] <shadows090> greezmunkey, on my server correct?  They work fine
[06:48] <Flannel> Sc00t3r, ActionParsnip: please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks.
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> Sc00t3r: except my fileserver.
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> Ok Flannel
[06:48] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, there should be no spaces in text between -o and /dev/sda2
[06:48] <Sc00t3r> Flannel, Sorry. Mind if we just move it to PM and stay here in case others need some support?
[06:48] <acerimmer_> yillkid: just create a USB startup disk already
[06:48] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, only commas, =s and "s
[06:48] <doug_> does anyone know what the latest versionof the kernel is version number/
[06:49] <Flannel> Sc00t3r: You can be in more than one channel at a time, but a query would work just as well if you prefer, sure.
[06:49] <AAA> doug_  uname -a will tell you what you're using
[06:49] <xpike> cannot find include file gpgme.h. Perhaps you need to install the gpgme development package?
[06:49] <Slart> !info linux-image-generic
[06:49] <xpike> where do I get that from?
[06:49] <Slart> doug_: see ubottu answer above
[06:49] <unop> !info libgpgme11-dev | xpike
[06:50] <yillkid> Flannel: because the OS just for a server work.
[06:50] <[BG]Zlobi> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o ro,nosuid,user,locale="bg_BG.CP1251" /dev/sda2
[06:50] <[BG]Zlobi> is what I use
[06:50] <yillkid> acerimmer_: a USB startup disk already ? I do not understand .
[06:50] <[BG]Zlobi> and many combos around it, tbh...
[06:50] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, you need specify mount point after /dev/sda2
[06:50] <doug_> Slart, I don't want to know what I'm using I want to know what is the latest one available
[06:51] <Flannel> yillkid: Ah.  So, you don't need the full GUI, just a "base system".  That's easy then.  Grab the alternate CD and install a "command line only" system (f4 or f5 or something like that will let you choose that option from the boot menu of the CD), or alternatively, use the server CD to install, which installs GUI-less by default.
[06:51] <Sc00t3r> yillkid, A USB startup disk is like the LiveCD, except on a USB device. You know, on a flash drive.
[06:51] <shadows090> greezmunkey. I am not sure how to PM. would it be bad practice to show the pastebin url for this?
[06:51] <xpike> what about mcrypt.h
[06:51] <Slart> doug_: ehm.. that is the latest one available.. I have absolutely no idea which kernel you're using.. for all I know you could be using an old Amiga or something right now
[06:51] <acerimmer_> Flannel: I do believe you've presented the best solution
[06:51] <greezmunkey> shadows090: I would say so, yes
[06:52] <greezmunkey> shadows090: /msg greezmunkey text...
[06:52] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, it worked! :)
[06:52] <[BG]Zlobi> let's see
[06:52] <stupidxp> windows users are soo stupid..
[06:52] <prince_jammys> xpike: probably libmcrypt-dev . what are you doing?
[06:52] <dotblank> !windows
[06:52] <fcwlxd> i am using windows.
[06:52] <xpike> trying to install gyachi over again
[06:52] <drizzt_> all users are stupid.
[06:52] <xpike> new version
[06:52] <doug_> Slart, oh I was looking at AAA post not ubottu
[06:53] <[BG]Zlobi> stupidxp, yes, but they are happy... happy are the stupid ones... :P
[06:53] <Sc00t3r> stupidxp, They are not stupid, they simply do not have the knowledge of things that are not as User-Friendly as Windows.
[06:53] <stupidxp> lol that just ignorance..
[06:53] <fcwlxd> i both use windows and linux.
[06:53] <acerimmer_> yillkid: Under System>Administration>Startup Disk Creator you can create a memory stick with live CD functions.  Just boot from that and you've got ubuntu
[06:53] <randerzander> is there an easy way to manually control fan speed on my T60 thinkpad with 10.04?
[06:53] <doug_> Slart, also, I using a c64 right now
[06:53] <stupidxp> lol
[06:53] <abuayyoub> hi, anyone here know anything about a program called HellaNZB?
[06:53] <xpike> Why is it keep asking me for a whole bunch of .h's
[06:53] <Slart> doug_: awesome =)
[06:54] <yillkid> Flannel: Yes, but I install minimal CD, and I have not install any package, icluding "x, gnome ... ..." --- ---> 678 MB.
[06:54] <drizzt_> xpike, you should run ./configure --prefix=/usr before compiling
[06:54] <drizzt_> yillkid, that's ok
[06:54]  * wise_crypt have not used win since 2003 gosh that long
[06:54] <dotblank> xpike? probably means you don't have the dependencies to whatever you are trying to compile
[06:54] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, it looks mounted, but not able to explore the drive
[06:54] <[BG]Zlobi> waits and jumps to the one above
[06:54] <Flannel> yillkid: So, that's the base system size.  If you'd like, you could trim it down by 100MB, or just live with it being 140MB larger than you planned
[06:55] <stupidxp> well i'm trying to repair my win xp by importing a new registry file...but it doesnt boot and i'm using ubuntu??
[06:55] <xpike> is gyachi under a ubuntu packge?
[06:55] <xpike> im sick of installing stuff from source
[06:55] <[BG]Zlobi> stupidxp, use grub
[06:55] <Flannel> yillkid: If you don't have immediate plans for the other 1.5GB, I'd say you'll be alright.  If you do, you should already know what you do and don't need, so you could easily remove what you won't be using
[06:55] <fcwlxd> use ubuntu to repear xp?
[06:55] <[BG]Zlobi> grub should detect windows
[06:55] <wise_crypt> xpike: as i told you before apt-cache search kick ash
[06:56] <stupidxp> winxp will not load...regardless of boot loader.. i removed all permissions on the xp
[06:56] <[BG]Zlobi> um, try a repair
[06:56] <dotblank> stupidxp, um yea... thats not smart
[06:56] <stupidxp> now i want to re enstate a fresh registry
[06:56] <[BG]Zlobi> With a win install cd
[06:56] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, use not the icon in sidebar, go to mount dir manually
[06:56] <prince_jammys> xpike: yes, from a ppa
[06:56] <stupidxp> dot well i was under a ddos
[06:56] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, ok...
[06:57] <Flannel> stupidxp: ##windows is the place you need o go to get help.  This channel doesn't have the technical knowledge of Windows in order to support you effectively
[06:57] <stupidxp> lol safe mode wont boot..
[06:57] <dotblank> stupidxp, try using the install disk and repair the windows partition it will reset the registry
[06:57] <doug_> is it possible to somehow make a 10.4 disk with kernel 2.6.33 or 34 or 31 anything but 32 really
[06:57] <Sc00t3r> stupidxp, If the Windows installation is on the same computer as the Ubuntu installation, you should just be able to run update-grub to add it to the GRUB Bootloader, right?
[06:57] <xpike> holy smokes i feel like im on gentoo doing all this stuff...the GUIs in this OS are meaningless lol
[06:57] <doug_> I have reason to believe .32 is EVIL
[06:57] <[BG]Zlobi> there :)
[06:57] <drizzt_> stupidxp, why did it stopped to boot?
[06:57] <dotblank> stupidxp, I would goto #windows
[06:57] <Sc00t3r> stupidxp, And if you added a registry file, you might be able to remove it from the installation to get it to boot- considering you can still access the files from ubuntu.
[06:57] <stupidxp> scoot grub wont fix this, its not apart of the boot process but loading of winxp itself
[06:57] <wise_crypt> !topic
[06:58] <geekphreak> wise_crypt: :)
[06:58] <stupidxp> scoot i have yet to figure out where to"add" my new registry file
[06:58] <yillkid> Flannel: Sorry my poor English, You say, my way is the right way to get the minimal system using minimal CD? And the next step, I should remove any packages that I don't need?
[06:58] <ActionParsnip> stupidxp: you can edit the reg from ubuntu I believe. You can also boot to xp install cd to recovery mode and edit it at command line
[06:58] <stupidxp> windows has one guy in it dishing out ifo...
[06:58] <Sc00t3r> stupidxp, Apparently you can download Windows XP repair disks. Not too sure about it though since it might just be for Vista and 7.
[06:58] <Flannel> Guys, take the windows discussion elsewhere.  Thanks.
[06:59] <dotblank> stupidxp, oh I ment ##windows
[06:59] <prince_jammys> xpike: if you can't find it in the repositories, go to gyachi's site and follow the links to the ppa.
[06:59] <Debolaz> How can I make gdm execute a system command after a given number of login failures?
[06:59] <stupidxp> -.- downloading repairs disks an d such is like asking strangers for candy xD
[06:59] <Sc00t3r> stupidxp, Mind coming to #ubuntu-offtopic? I can try to help ya' more there.
[06:59] <xpike> http://anipossible3.blogspot.com/2009/01/gyache-on-ubunt.html I am doing this EXACTLY
[07:00] <geekphreak> Debolaz: afaik there is no such feature
[07:00] <Flannel> yillkid: Minimal CD will work to get the installation you want, yes.  You said it was 678MB and you want it to be 538.  Your only choice is to either live with it using an additional 140MB of space, or find a way to make it smaller (by removing packages you won't use)
[07:00] <prince_jammys> xpike: gyachi's official site.
[07:00] <yillkid> acerimmer_: Thank you, I will try, but do you know waht size will I get?
[07:00] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, no, opens another disk...
[07:00] <wise_crypt> Sc00t3r: i gues ot is also for ubuntu related :)
[07:00] <[BG]Zlobi> the neighbour NTFS
[07:00] <Debolaz> geekphreak: Is there another login manager I can use that has such a feature? Basically, I want the machine to power off after 3 login failures.
[07:00] <ActionParsnip> stupidxp: http://www.google.com/m/url?client=ms-android-tmobile&ei=rLkZTIihApO4jAebzavqAg&gl=gb&hl=en&q=http%3A%2F%2Fubuntuforums.org%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D624943&resnum=0&sa=X&source=android-browser-key&ved=0CA4QrAIoAA&usg=AFQjCNFVOZGUYR4IB-8AG4ILVj8HOavhBA
[07:00] <[BG]Zlobi> Unmounted, remounted, checked /bbb/ff/ stuff
[07:00] <ActionParsnip> Sorry :(
[07:00] <FloodBot1> ActionParsnip: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:00] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, then unmount it and mount again with "bg_BG.UTF-8" locale
[07:01] <ActionParsnip> Stupid google poisoning links
[07:01] <geekphreak> Debolaz: there are other managers yes, do they have same feature, not sure
[07:01] <[BG]Zlobi> ok
[07:01] <acerimmer_> yillkid: USB stick has to be at least 1 gigabyte.
[07:01] <prince_jammys> xpike: those are directions to compile it. you can instead try the ppa repository.
[07:01] <Flannel> Debolaz, geekphreak: I'm pretty sure you can do that, it wouldn't be a GDM feature though, probably a PAM feature.
[07:01] <wise_crypt> ActionParsnip: need a better isp i gues lol
[07:01] <wildbat_laptop> is there a command to reset the NIC's MAC back to its own one ?
[07:01] <yillkid> Flannel: Why? I can use "debootstrao" directly, and I will get the 538 MB base system .
[07:01] <xpike> im on the ppa page, Im running 8.04 amd64
[07:01] <geekphreak> Flannel: how so sir, please guide, i would be interested too
[07:01] <xpike> not listed there
[07:02] <dotblank> xpike, whoa thats old
[07:02] <yillkid> acerimmer_: And it will less than 538 MB ?
[07:02] <ActionParsnip> Wise_crypt: its the combination of google search and googles browser on g1. Nothing to do with isp
[07:02] <Flannel> geekphreak: I'm not entirely sure, but it makes sense that it'd be doable from what I understand of PAM modules
[07:02] <Debolaz> Flannel: Interesting thought.
[07:02] <drizzt_> wtf is debootstrap?
[07:02] <xpike> yea i know
[07:02] <Flannel> yillkid: How did you install via deboostrap?
[07:02]  * Debolaz has full disk encryption, so a shutdown would basically lock the user completely out of the system.
[07:02] <ActionParsnip> Dotblank: its a supported release so gets updates just like lucid does.
[07:02] <geekphreak> Flannel: well i am all ears, will check on it too
[07:03] <xpike> so theres no such thing as backwards compadability now? lol
[07:03] <wise_crypt> ActionParsnip: owh android hihi okey
[07:03] <yillkid> Flannel: hmm ...   You have a single install, and you look at the space two ways and it's different sizes?
[07:04] <yillkid> Flannel: And mount /dev ... /proc ... to the target, and intall kernl image, reboot .
[07:04] <xpike> i may update to 10.1 32 bit
[07:04] <Flannel> xpike: If it depends on a library version that's newer than the one you have then you wouldn't be able to use it
[07:04] <stupidxp> lol shutting down would lock alot of people out of  the pc?
[07:04] <doug_> okay, I think this is my planim going to install 10.4 then upgrade to mainline kernel 2.6.34 on scale of 1 to 10 how hard is that going to be for a noob?
[07:04] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, ?
[07:04] <[BG]Zlobi> I love U
[07:05] <yillkid> Flannel: No. The minimal size I can make, the via debootstrap ... 538MB, just all .
[07:05] <Slart> !language > drizzt_
[07:05] <[BG]Zlobi> UTF-8 works
[07:05] <[BG]Zlobi> Now how to automate this? :)
[07:05] <xpike> do i have to install a from a new disc for 8.04 to 10.1 or  can i recompile everything?
[07:05] <Flannel> yillkid: No, you could certainly make a smaller system.  But, I'm not sure what you're looking for anymore.  Are you wondering why the server install isn't the smallest possible?
[07:05] <lukio> Hi
[07:05] <drizzt_> [BG]Zlobi, put the record in /etc/fstab
[07:05] <Flannel> xpike: You can upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04
[07:06] <dotblank> xpike, you'd be btter off downloading the 10.04 cd and installing fresh
[07:06] <Flannel> xpike: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades
[07:06] <xpike> yea im gunna do it that way
[07:06] <jaybinks> hey .. ive got 64bit version of 10.04 installed...    its only saying I have 8gig of ram, but I have 12... how do I fix this ?
[07:06] <xpike> i have a feeling once i upgrade my compiz fusion would stop working
[07:06] <geekphreak> jaybinks: send 4 to me ;)
[07:06] <jaybinks> haha ... thats 1 option...
[07:07] <Slart> jaybinks: perhaps your motherboard has a limit on how much memory it can handle?
[07:07] <yillkid> Flannel: Yes, and I want to find a way to install the minimal-est ubuntu. :)
[07:07] <jaybinks> bios shows 12 gig fine..
[07:07] <drizzt_> xpike, do you work on your computer or play with compiz?
[07:07] <Flannel> yillkid: Take what you've got, remove everything you don't want.  That'll be the easiest way.
[07:07] <dotblank> I never have compiz enabled
[07:07] <yillkid> Flannel: Any way, just the OS DO NOT out of the ubuntu official support .
[07:07] <xpike> both lol
[07:08] <xpike> I know compiz is a resource hog
[07:08] <Flannel> yillkid: What do you mean by "official Ubuntu support"?
[07:08] <geekphreak> xpike: i love it
[07:08] <xpike> but ti was the easiest thing to do on ubuntu
[07:08] <Debolaz> geekphreak: It seems pam_tally.so counts the number of failed attempts. But it only supports locking the account, not executing a specific command. Might be possible to modify it.
[07:08] <jaybinks> also has anyone got compiz working over 2 Video cards ??? ( Nvidia )
[07:08] <xpike> i didnt wanna bother struggling to get compiz to work on another distro lol
[07:08] <dotblank> jaybinks, yes... and no
[07:09] <jaybinks> I currently have 3 x 24" monitors rotated 90 degrees ...
[07:09] <jaybinks> and compiz dosnt want to play nice
[07:09] <yillkid> Flannel: Using "debootstrap" way, I tried, not many change, because too dependency problems, it will cause the broken packages .
[07:09] <dotblank> jaybinks, nice
[07:09] <jaybinks> the mouse works ok on 2 monitors, ( on same card )
[07:09] <geekphreak> Debolaz: thats interesting , will look into it :)
[07:09] <dotblank> jaybinks, I have a 24" and a projector
[07:09] <jaybinks> but then if I move the mouse to the 2nd card ...  it starts freaking out
[07:09] <jaybinks> :(
[07:09] <jaybinks> be nice to get compiz going
[07:10] <dotblank> jaybinks, are you using them as seperate xservers or are you running xinerama
[07:10] <yillkid> Flannel: I want to use the official ubuntu apt server, because I want not to maintain my OS by myself .
[07:10] <jaybinks> at the moment ive got it running as separate X Screens..
[07:10] <jaybinks> coz twinview wouldnt work for me :(
[07:10] <dotblank> jaybinks, twin view only works on a single video card
[07:10] <jaybinks> yea .. separate X Servers ...
[07:10] <Flannel> yillkid: Ah, well, you can remove anything you want and still use the repositories.  Upgrading would be different, but nothing's going to kick you off the repositories.
[07:10] <jaybinks> yea so there is my problem with twinview :P its not triview :)
[07:10] <xpike> oh I have another question... i have saved passwords in my firefox on my windows partition, is there a way I can access it by mounting the drive and exploring the firefox directory?
[07:11] <jaybinks> separate X servers just feels a little slow...
[07:11] <dotblank> jaybinks, actually there is a card that lets you do it
[07:11] <drizzt_> yillkid, install dsl and stop trolling that channel
[07:11] <dotblank> jaybinks, but its expensive
[07:11] <prince_jammys> xpike: hopefully not.
[07:11] <xpike> i need those passwords lol
[07:11] <kbrosnan> xpike: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile
[07:11] <jaybinks> yea I could get one of those funky 4 or 6 output cards right :P
[07:11] <dotblank> http://www.nvidia.com/page/quadrofx.html
[07:11] <prince_jammys> xpike: perhaps you can use some of the settings from the window installation.
[07:11] <kbrosnan> prince_jammys: fairly trivial
[07:11] <prince_jammys> *windows
[07:12] <xpike> thanks alot
[07:12] <drizzt_> should I install the recent kernel update?
[07:12] <yillkid> drizzt_: What mistake I make?
[07:13] <dotblank> on those cards you can used the sli cards outputs as well
[07:13] <alex87> anyone else *still* having issues with 64-bit? ie, the latest version of flash. i have 4GB of ram (which i never fill), not sure it's worth bothering yet
[07:13] <drizzt_> yillkid, Ubuntu is not supposed to be small
[07:13] <geekphreak> Debolaz: it has other options i see, nothing to execute a command perhaps if it makes sense to you
[07:13] <dotblank> alex87, I don't have issues with 64 bit... just flash
[07:13] <drizzt_> drizzt_, Debian and Ubuntu are built around the functionality, not efficiency
[07:13] <Debolaz> geekphreak: I'm looking into pam_exec now. It's not exactly what I want, but could provide a useful way of plugging into the pam system without having to resort to C.
[07:14] <alex87> dotblank, yeah, i haven't had many other issues. another reason to oust adobe i guess
[07:14] <drizzt_> you may try other distros, like arch or gentoo
[07:14] <dotblank> but thanks to webm and html5 my system is slowly using flash less and less
[07:14] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, all ready :)
[07:14] <drizzt_> what's ready?
[07:14] <[BG]Zlobi> All my three NTFS partitions
[07:14] <geekphreak> k
[07:15] <dotblank> I love html5 youtube
[07:15] <yillkid> drizzt_: I just want to find a official way ... minimal CD is a way... I do not think this is a bed idea, or a unused information for this channel, thanks . :)
[07:15] <[BG]Zlobi> Edited entries, commented the original lines :)
[07:15] <dotblank> best thing EVER!
[07:15] <andrewfree> So you guys think if I was booted up running linux, and plugged a typical PC into my mac via usb on both ends, think I could access the windows drive on linux?
[07:16] <dotblank> andrewfree, ummm no
[07:16] <dotblank> andrewfree, well actually you sorta can
[07:17] <dotblank> with g_file kernel module
[07:17] <r0zz> hi somebody can help me ?
[07:17] <andrewfree> 0.o
[07:17] <unop> andrewfree, you'll need a special usb cable and drivers for both OSes to do that.
[07:17] <drizzt_> !anyone
[07:17] <r0zz> i have problem with a usb live
[07:17] <unop> andrewfree, why not use the network instead?
[07:17] <dotblank> unop, not true.. you can still use normal cables for it
[07:18] <dotblank> unop, but it is very complicated
[07:18] <stupidxp> how do i force mount? how do i list drives?
[07:18] <drizzt_> andrewfree, USB connection of computers are NOT supported
[07:18] <geekphreak> stupidxp: guess who is back :p
[07:18] <andrewfree> ok makes sense, so better question. I have a drive with linux on it,  can I boot a PC up from that drive to do repairs to the drive.
[07:18] <stupidxp> xD
[07:18] <geekphreak> r0zz: as in?
[07:18] <unop> dotblank, i've tried this before -- and had to resort to buying the cables .. in anycase, you need the drivers
[07:18] <stupidxp> i googled and think i found where it is
[07:18] <geekphreak> stupidxp: sudo fdisk -l
[07:19] <r0zz> im using a iso, before my iso was 700 mb but now i need other package and is 1.4gb when boot tell me need to in congous area
[07:19] <dotblank> unop, umm have you tried the usb gadget modules?
[07:19] <zio> hi everybody
[07:19] <geekphreak> r0zz: huh what?
[07:19] <drizzt_> r0zz, the usb device is too fragmented to boot from
[07:20] <r0zz> what do i need to do?
[07:20] <zio> i need help :(
[07:20] <unop> dotblank, umm no, but that would constitute using drivers right?
[07:20] <drizzt_> r0zz, probably reformat and recreate it
[07:20] <fcwlxd> zio:what is wrong
[07:20] <kelvinella> hi, is xubuntu or ubuntu netbook remix is better for an old laptop?
[07:20] <dotblank> unop, well everything uses drivers.. but I think on most machines its already there
[07:21] <dotblank> unop, it emulates a flash drive... so you don't need to install extra drivers
[07:21] <[BG]Zlobi> andrewfree, afaik usb can't be used between two PCs
[07:21] <Zorky> HEy all. I have a HP DC5100 Computer which supports 4GB ram. after a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 it can only detect 3GB what can I do?
[07:21] <dotblank> unop, I stand corrected on the cable thing actually.. but you don't need special drivers
[07:21] <[BG]Zlobi> But IEEE1394 aka Firewire can
[07:21] <drizzt_> kelvinella, linux is not good for old laptops, because hardware support is lacking and no drivers are developed for old hardware
[07:21] <unop> dotblank, well, the one I used simulated that bi-directionally and you could enable networking if you wanted.
[07:22] <zio>  fcwlxd: whats the difference between installing grub on entire disk (dev/sda) or istalling it in the first partition?
[07:22] <stupidxp> how do i force mount?
[07:22] <drizzt_> Zorky, pae
[07:22] <kelvinella> drizzt_, what?
[07:22] <[BG]Zlobi> stupidxp, with -f or smth...
[07:22] <drizzt_> kelvinella, linux is usable on modern hardware only
[07:22] <stupidxp> like mount -f /dev/sda1 ??
[07:23] <r0zz> i found an aplication called WinContig for desfragment but there is other problems
[07:23] <kelvinella> drizzt_, but everything work in puppylinux here, even the wireless pc card
[07:23] <dotblank> if you use kernel 2.4 it might work on older hardware
[07:23] <[BG]Zlobi> stupidxp, yes, try
[07:23] <Zorky> drizzt_, change kernel to pae? please explain some more on how.
[07:23] <drizzt_> oh thats good
[07:23] <drizzt_> Zorky, yes
[07:23] <andrewfree> [BG]Zlobi: yea I think I am going to just boot ubuntu from a flash drive. How well does that work? Can I install tools on it and have them stay there?
[07:24] <drizzt_> kelvinella, i'd tryed ubuntu remix, because xubuntu is unusable
[07:24] <zio> ..
[07:24] <kelvinella> drizzt_, how usable?
[07:24] <kelvinella> drizzt_, how unusable?
[07:25] <happosade> What does mean that mdadm says, when I am creating new raid5-system: mdadm: Cannot open /dev/sdd: Device or resource busy
[07:25] <drizzt_> kelvinella, it misses most Gnome tools, and support is third-rate
[07:26] <mneptok> drizzt_: Kubuntu "misses most GNOME tools" as well. this is what happens when *you don't use GNOME*.
[07:26] <[BG]Zlobi> andrewfree, I think you can, at least have separate folder on usb and use from there once booted
[07:26] <zio> please somebody
[07:26] <kelvinella> drizzt_, what gnome tool missing?  i thought xubuntu and ubuntu are the same except using different x windows
[07:26] <drizzt_> mneptok, kubuntu have equivalent tools, xubuntu has nothing
[07:26] <[BG]Zlobi> andrewfree, however some stuff does not work w/o real install, you know...
[07:26] <r0zz> how can virtual box recognize usb
[07:27] <mneptok> drizzt_: ost of them are an apt-get away.
[07:27] <mneptok> *most
[07:27] <mneptok> r0zz: Vbox has host add-on tools you can install from the client OS.
[07:28] <[BG]Zlobi> well, xubuntu is quite usable, tho the diappering panels can piss you off
[07:29] <drizzt_> xubuntu have no nautilus, no gnome-control-center, no gnome-panel, etc...
[07:29] <r0zz> mm need bot from usb in vbox to avoid fatigue restart
[07:29] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, but can be controlled just as well for basic tasks, and it is aimed at low-end machines, so it's worth
[07:30] <andrewfree> [BG]Zlobi:  meh I think ill just use a ubuntu live cd and install the tools I need each time I need to fix someones computer.
[07:31] <drizzt_> the only good thing in xubuntu is the keyboard switcher
[07:31] <kelvinella> whats kayboard switcher?
[07:31] <[BG]Zlobi> andrewfree, if you can always have internet :)
[07:31] <vikasap> Hello all, I am not able to find cups header files in ubuntu. I have already installed cups through ap-get install cups
[07:31] <mneptok> drizzt_: you're wandering far offtopic for #ubuntu at this point.
[07:31] <dotblank> andrewfree, you can create a custom live cd by remastering
[07:31] <Hemebond> What would I search for to find a fix for the "pulse audio breaks on switch user"?
[07:32] <[BG]Zlobi> andrewfree, some older PCs don't do USB boot also
[07:32] <dotblank> andrewfree, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[07:32] <[BG]Zlobi> But CD + USB is fine
[07:32] <vikasap> Do I need to install any other package to get the cups headers ?
[07:32] <drizzt_> offtopic? I liked to have a flag for layout in gnome 2.26, but they scrapped it in gnome 2.28 or whatever it is right now, and I cannot put it back!
[07:33] <andrewfree> Well I mainly want to do Mac repair, Im good at that. I want to start learning more PC stuff but I guess ill figure it out as it comes
[07:33] <kelvinella> drizzt_, the laptop only has 256 mb ram, 1.6GHz pentium M
[07:33] <kelvinella> drizzt_, unusable in ubuntu, but quite fast in xubuntu
[07:33] <stupidxp>  sudo mount -t ntfs -o force /dev/sda1 what is wrong with this?
[07:33] <[BG]Zlobi> -force?
[07:33] <drizzt_> stupidxp, no mount point
[07:34] <[BG]Zlobi> Ah, he as me
[07:34] <[BG]Zlobi> drizzt_, aren't you tired :D
[07:34] <stupidxp> drizzt? how so?
[07:34] <[BG]Zlobi> stupidxp, add /media/SOMETHING at the end
[07:34] <nomad77> stupidxp: try ntfs-3g? and a mountpoint
[07:35] <stupidxp> ooooh
[07:35] <[BG]Zlobi> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o force /dev/sda1 /media/Mydisk
[07:35] <[BG]Zlobi> fex
[07:36] <[BG]Zlobi> and - for -force...
[07:36] <zio> what is the command to remove grub from ubuntu live session?
[07:36] <drizzt_> zio, chroot to target system and remove it
[07:36] <Sam_Fisher> Good da mate
[07:37] <stupidxp> lol
[07:37] <zio> drittz: and that means?
[07:37] <r0zz> thanks, i could mount iso in vbox, now, if my image is 1.4 is necesary have a memory with more capacity?
[07:38] <stupidxp> omg the drive disapeared and renamed all drive <drive size> media :  sudo mount -t ntfs -o force /dev/sda1 /media
[07:38] <stupidxp> ahahahha
[07:38] <dotblank> lol
[07:38] <stupidxp> brb lemme restart
[07:39] <Sam_Fisher> I need/want a widget to show CPU/temps/etc I have Xsensor but gawd is it boring looking! What can I use? I use Docky but all I have is the sun sensor that glows red all the time
[07:39] <dotblank> Sam_Fisher, tried conky?
[07:40] <Sam_Fisher> I beg your pardon! I am a gentleman
[07:40] <dotblank> !conky
[07:40] <Sam_Fisher> dotblank, what is conky?
[07:40] <dotblank> !conkey
[07:40] <prince_jammys> !info conky
[07:40] <prince_jammys> though i suspect you'll find it "boring looking"
[07:40] <dotblank> prince_jammys, you have great bot fu
[07:40] <Sam_Fisher> synaptic has Conky?
[07:41] <prince_jammys> yes
[07:41] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: yup
[07:41] <llutz> !info gkrellm | Sam_Fisher maybe this
[07:41] <Guest18330> hello everyone, just installed ubuntu, how to install wifi driver
[07:41] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: sudo apt-get install conky-all
[07:41] <prince_jammys> !wireless | Guest18330
[07:41] <soreau> Guest18330: Which wifi chip is it?
[07:41] <Sam_Fisher> Guest18330, which wifi do you have? or which laptop etc?
[07:41] <firepilot> I'm currently compiling a kernel and I need to include efivars, but I'm not really sure how to do that. Any help?
[07:42] <Guest18330> i dont know which wifi chip, compaq 610
[07:42] <Sam_Fisher> Guest18330, And why do you think it didn't install one?
[07:42] <zio> sudo aptitude purge grub2 grub-pc  will this remove grub installed with 10.04?
[07:42] <prince_jammys> firepilot: try ##linux
[07:42] <soreau> Guest18330: Is it a pci (internal) card or usb?
[07:42] <dotblank> Guest18330, try running lspci -v
[07:43] <firepilot> prince_jammys, kay, thanks :)
[07:43] <Guest18330> ints internal card
[07:43] <soreau> Guest18330: look at the output of 'lspci' in your terminal
[07:43] <Guest18330> yeah checking that
[07:44] <geekphreak> Guest18330: good luck :)
[07:44] <geekphreak> zio: mind if i ask, why toy are purging it?
[07:44] <Sam_Fisher> geekphreak, only positive sentiments here buddy
[07:45] <wildbat> zio, y don't you try and tell us ^^
[07:45] <Guest18330> Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
[07:45] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: excuse me?
[07:45] <Guest18330> thats my driver
[07:45] <Sam_Fisher> geekphreak, so where will conky run? Widget toolbar?
[07:45] <zio> grub got corrupted somehow
[07:45] <plitter> hey everyone, i am trying to fix a mic on an acer aspire, and i got it to work but then suddenly the driver disappeared (or thats what i think happened) since i couldnt choose device in pulsaudio. can someone help me?
[07:45] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: desktop as a widget
[07:45] <dotblank> Sam_Fisher, desktop as a widget
[07:45] <wildbat> Guest18330,  intel 3945 you don't need driver
[07:45] <dotblank> geekphreak, your my typing clone
[07:45] <zio> and i dont have windows disc to restore mbr from
[07:45] <soreau> Guest18330: Now, what makes you think the driver is not already working? (if 'iwconfig' shows a wlan0 or wifi interface, the driver module is already loaded)
[07:46] <Sam_Fisher> Stereo help! How great is that
[07:46] <geekphreak> dotblank: i typed first ;) , that makes u the clone :p
[07:46] <zio> i need a way to eradicate grub without windows disc
[07:46] <soreau> wildbat: You do, it's just included in the kernel and loaded by default
[07:46] <Guest18330> then how to enable wifi, i installed desktop version
[07:46] <Guest18330> of ubuntu
[07:46] <dotblank> Guest18330, did you check for any restricted drivers?
[07:46] <soreau> Guest18330: Do you not see wlan0 interface from the output of 'iwconfig'?
[07:46] <geekphreak> zio: so u can just run windows?
[07:46] <Guest18330> i did, no result
[07:46] <soreau> dotblank: There are no proprietary drivers for intel chips
[07:46] <zio> yes
[07:47] <geekphreak> zio: which windows is this?
[07:47] <zio> im typing from there
[07:47] <dotblank> Guest18330, what version of ubuntu
[07:47] <zio> win7 ultimate build 7600
[07:47] <Guest18330> 9-10
[07:47] <geekphreak> zio: if you have the dvd , u can fix it
[07:47] <Sam_Fisher> Guest18330, here is what I did on my laptop. Open the Ubuntu software Center and search for wifi radar and install that.
[07:47] <soreau> Guest18330: You may need a newer kernel for that card to work so you might try a 10.04 live cd
[07:48] <zio> i dont have windows disc
[07:48] <dotblank> Guest18330, or have you tried updateing the system?
[07:48] <Guest18330> no yet
[07:48] <kurtis> Hey, I'm trying to figure out how to get my fan working on my laptop. I have ACPI working finally (acpi) but the only temp. I can find for it to turn on is at 105C
[07:48] <dotblank> Guest18330, update my very well help your situation
[07:48] <soreau> Sam_Fisher: If he has no wifi interface as reported from iwconfig, any program that attempts to use the driver (like wifi radar) will be useless
[07:48] <zio> is there a command  to delete grub from the live ubuntu
[07:48] <Sam_Fisher> Guest18330, makes finding and managing wifi much easier
[07:49] <Guest18330> i'm going to install wifi radar
[07:49] <geekphreak> zio: why not just make windows default?
[07:49] <soreau> great
[07:49] <zio> grub will still be there
[07:49] <dotblank> Sam_Fisher, if he doesn't have the drivers that won't work
[07:49] <zio> i dont want it anymore installed
[07:49] <acperkins> zio: fixboot and fixmbr from the command prompt should get rid of grub, but I don't remember if they get installed to the hard drive or if they only run from the Windows recovery console
[07:49] <stupidxp> ugh i wish i could remember what i typed earlier to get it mounted...
[07:49] <soreau> Guest18330: wifi radar will not help your driver situation at all
[07:49] <geekphreak> acperkins: they need the cd
[07:49] <ghufran> hi, i have 9.1 64 bit and copying files to external storage via usb. file operation doesnt seem to end now (used to work fine earlier). it keeps sitting at a 100% but never closes. if i close it myself, the file is corrupted
[07:49] <zio> acperkins: recovery console i think
[07:50] <Guest18330> then what else to do
[07:50] <Maks1> Hello can't find Compiz Manager in fresh installed ubuntu. USC sais that its already installed!
[07:50] <kurtis> zio: You used to be able to do fdisk /mbr, but I haven't done that in a long time
[07:50] <dotblank> stupidxp, mount -t ntfs-3g -o force drive mountpoint
[07:50] <soreau> Guest18330: Upgrade to 10.04
[07:50] <soreau> Maks1: What does 'ccsm' in your terminal say?
[07:50] <xro> hi, i would like to use kate on ubuntu... i installed it but i don't have the console.... have xou an idea?
[07:50] <acperkins> zio: does 'fdisk /mbr' still work in Win7?
[07:50] <soreau> xro: What console?
[07:50] <Guest18330> i dont want to upgarde, shall check updates
[07:50] <Maks1> i dont know what is ccsm :)
[07:51] <zio> acperkins: works from the disk
[07:51] <prince_jammys> xro: you might have to install konsole
[07:51] <soreau> Maks1: Run 'ccsm' in your terminal without tick marks and view the output
[07:51] <geekphreak> zio: cant you borrow the disc?
[07:51] <jzacsh> is there a decent peice of documentation of how to install ubunt w/raid -- not just how to install RAID, but specifically, how to do it during installation?
[07:51] <dotblank> Maks1, its the compiz setting manager
[07:51] <geekphreak> who had compiz issue?
[07:51] <soreau> ! ccsm | Maks1
[07:51] <jzacsh> raid 1 to be specific
[07:51] <geekphreak> is compizconfig-setting-manager installed?
[07:51] <Maks1> you mean apt-get install ccsm? :)
[07:52] <acperkins> hmm, in that case I'm out of ideas
[07:52] <zio> isnt there a command to run in terminal from ubuntu live session to get rid of grub?
[07:52] <kurtis> Any suggestions on how to force a laptop fan on?
[07:52] <soreau> Maks1: No, 'ccsm' is the command. compizconfig-setting-manager is the package that provides it
[07:52] <geekphreak> Maks1: compizconfig-settings-manager
[07:52] <llutz> zio: if you don't have a backup of the original MBR, no

[07:52] <cgethycx> Hi, I am using ubuntu 10.04 and I am unable to get my audio input to work correctly. I can record sound coming into the computer but I can't hear it until I play It back. Also I am a noob so please be nice.
[07:52] <geekphreak> cgethycx: do we have to lol
[07:52] <Guest18330> no information regarding wifi driver in updates
[07:53] <zio> i didnt lost grub after installing windows
[07:53] <cgethycx> lol
[07:53] <dotblank> cgethycx, You would want your audio to playback whilst speaking into the microphone
[07:53] <zio> i already googled it all day yesterday
[07:53] <dotblank> cgethycx, right?
[07:53] <geekphreak> zio: man  you need the dvd
[07:53] <cgethycx> I am trying to capture audio and I need to know when to stop
[07:54] <cgethycx> yes I need to here it
[07:54] <Maks1> Thanks a lot!
[07:54] <geekphreak> Maks1: did it work?
[07:54] <dotblank> cgethycx, If that is the case then press alt-f2 and type "pactl load-module module-loopback"
[07:54] <kurtis> cgethycx: If you used audacity you can see the sound waves. Not sure about having it output while receiving input though
[07:54] <zio> i will try find the dvd but i dont remember seen any command prompt in win7 boot from dvd
[07:54] <Maks1> ye
[07:54] <xro> prince_jammys, works... thanks a lot... i didn't think that kde have a specific console!
[07:54] <plitter> is there a way to install the kernel module for sound again? seems i made them go away
[07:55] <geekphreak> zio: it has resuce mode, to enter recovery console , from there >> bootrec /fixmbr
[07:55] <Maks1> thanks again :D
[07:55] <Sam_Fisher> geekphreak, Where do I configure Conky? I am not seeing it in Applications
[07:55] <cgethycx> yes I am using audacity and i can see the waves and i can hear it on play back

[07:56] <geekphreak> llutz: thanks
[07:56] <tgywa> what are the major paremeters to set for a mail relay server based on postfix?
[07:56] <Guest5989> hi
[07:57] <dotblank> cgethycx, audacity has an option to enable local playback of recording audio if that doesn''t work then you may want to try the command I gave you
[07:57] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: i dont use such application, dont like em :)
[07:57] <llutz> tgywa: those dpkg asks you when installing. more info at #postfix
[07:57] <cgethycx> great i will try it now
[07:57] <tgywa> llutz, not clearn ...
[07:57] <tgywa> llutz, not clear ...
[07:58] <zio>  geekphreak: thanks.. if i decide to reinstall ubuntu in the future  whats the difference between installing grub in dev/sda or in a partition?
[07:58] <llutz> tgywa: tyoe "/join  #postfix"  make sure to have read the postfix-docu before you ask faqs there
[07:58] <wildbat> zio, you just don't install grub in partition
[07:58] <Sam_Fisher> geekphreak, whaaaat? You told me to get Conky and  now you tell me it's not good enough for you. Great. lol
[07:59] <geekphreak> zio depends on situtations
[07:59] <Sam_Fisher> geekphreak, Vim-gnome not installed
[07:59] <Sam_Fisher> what is Vim ?
[07:59] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: type vi
[07:59] <llutz> Sam_Fisher: use nano, or any editor you know/like
[07:59] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: its the editor

[08:00] <geekphreak> !info irssi
[08:00] <Sam_Fisher> I bet that's why I didn't find it! misspelled
[08:01] <drizzt_> psu?
[08:01] <wildbat> Keypad,  PSU to crash ? ~ sound more like a hardware problem?
[08:01] <cgethycx> the option is not available but is there but it has a recommendation to not do it during stereo mix.  when i am done recording i will try the code you gave me.  thanks
[08:01] <Keypad> wildbat: thats what I thought too. But it works fine in winblows
[08:01] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: its worth a shot, good tool to work with
[08:02] <wildbat> Keypad, what you experiencing?
[08:02] <pmjdebruijn> hi
[08:03] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: lol sorry mate, but i do hate those application, you asked for it :p
[08:03] <Keypad> wildbat: I cant install off USB Media, It says the HDD is fucked or it changes its mind and says the CD is scrached lol
[08:03] <pmjdebruijn> I'm using the foo2qpdl driver for a Samsung Laser printer, however the halftoning gives weird patterns
[08:03] <chu_> when I upgrade from Karmic to Lucid, what gets changed?
[08:03] <pmjdebruijn> http://files.pcode.nl/temp/143724.JPG
[08:03] <Sam_Fisher> I know the hard core geeks use irssi and I want to be kool to. LOL
[08:03] <geekphreak> Sam_Fisher: lol
[08:03] <pmjdebruijn> chu_: always use the live cd first, to try out
[08:03] <chu_> Gah, can't be bothered downloading!
[08:03] <stupidxp>  sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o force /dev/sda1 /media/g:\  it keeps cutting the \ off how do i rename or create a new folder in /media?
[08:04] <Zorky> hey all. while viewing a file using "less" can I start editing from there? (like in vi) if so, how?
[08:04] <wildbat> Keypad, huh? may be you wanna copy down the error msg?
[08:04] <llutz> Sam_Fisher: it's hard to be 1338
[08:04] <geekphreak> stupidxp: what are you trying to do now?
[08:04] <stupidxp> force mount this ntfs..
[08:04] <zio> sfdisk -d *device* > *filename*.partTable
[08:04] <Keypad> wildbat: So I swapped the HDD out, but now it installs the core package and while its taking its sweet time to do that it will just restart / hang
[08:04] <prince_jammys> Zorky: 'v'
[08:04] <Sam_Fisher> Did we fix that Guestxxx wifi problem?
[08:04] <Keypad> doesnt even post
[08:04] <kraut> moin
[08:04] <zio> is this how you backup partition table in ubuntu?
[08:04] <geekphreak> zio: cfdisk?
[08:05] <stupidxp> it keeps deleteing one charecter and the prevents the command from working
[08:05] <wildbat> Keypad, did you check your iso file against checksum ?
[08:05] <cgethycx> while I am here are there any good guides on setting up a home network, I have 2 pc running 10.04 but the do not see each other, but I can see a laptop running win7 and my network drive that is connected to my router.
[08:05] <geekphreak> zio: dont play with something,y ou dont know off :)
[08:05] <geekphreak> zio: will caus e more harm then good imo
[08:05] <stupidxp> how would i rename a folder or tell it to create one?
[08:05] <geekphreak> stupidxp: mkdir?
[08:05] <zio> i already did it from sysrescuecd
[08:06] <llutz> zio: sfdisk or just "sudo dd if=/dev/sdX of=mbr.img count=1"
[08:06] <Zorky> prince_jammys, great, but that is not vi, what is it?
[08:06] <Keypad> wildbat, yep even changed to USB then switched to the alternative iso because, I find the live CD tends to hang more often.
[08:06] <zio> llutz: thanks
[08:06] <prince_jammys> Zorky: probably nano. set your EDITOR and VISUAL environment variables to whatever editor you want

[08:37] <cgethycx> I have looked at ebox and it seams like a bit of over kill. Is that what would be best for a simple home network. Keep in mind that I am coming from a world of windows.
[08:38] <statim> im running ubuntu in vmware, no gui, just server.  anyone know how to go about making /mnt/somefolder map to my host computer at a particular directory?
[08:38] <kurtis> Hey, I'm trying to customize Gnome/Metacity's appearance. So far everything is going well except I can't figure out how to change "Disabled Text". Currently it gives it this ugly embedded appearance
[08:39] <wise_crypt> cgethycx: what do you mean its very easy https://localhost/ebox and enter the password you give in installation
[08:39] <kurtis> For example, in my terminal window "Change Profile" is disabled and it has that appearance
[08:39] <kurtis> *terminal window menu
[08:40] <kurtis> Any suggestions?
[08:40] <geekphreak> time to go , cya folks :)
[08:40] <Kartagis> hey. what are my options to import a certificate into thunderbird if I am getting an error like http://people.sabanciuniv.edu/mtozses/cert.png ?
[08:41] <Vigo> kurtis: Have you reverted to Gnome Default?
[08:41] <kurtis> Kartagis: I would personally recommend asking in a Mozilla channel
[08:42] <Kartagis> kurtis, #mozilla ?
[08:42] <kurtis> Vigo: nope, I haven't tried that. Let me give it a spin as long as i can save my current setup
[08:42] <Vigo> Or #thunderbird
[08:43] <kensanata> Does anybody know how to remove most of the English language variants in Firefox? I installed German spellchecking and switch often. I'd prefer not to see the seven unused English variants when switching.
[08:43] <wise_crypt> cgethycx: after that just click network modul set your first interface which is usually eth0 as the wan(go to internet) << you dhoukd click wan and then set your second interface and then set up your dns resolver with <IP_ADDRESS> and add dns that given by your isp remember to put <IP_ADDRESS> on top the other and then ativate your configuration in modul status and then bang your client will go through internet if you set up your client ip with the same ...
[08:43] <cgethycx> not that it minght not be easy, but while looking at screen shots of ebox it seam that i would be setting but my home like an office building and was just wondering if that was the best option for home use
[08:43] <wise_crypt> ... subnet eith your eth1
[08:44] <Vigo> kurtis: Ok, I found a few posts on that, here is the one from Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/405089

[08:58] <Incarnation> Oh... why did they put that acronym after the version number?
[08:58] <Incarnation> Ohhh
[08:58] <bullgard4> Why did OpenOffice.org set the executable bit in a configuration file?

[09:00] <arvind_khadri> !ipod | rich_
[09:00] <Minifigure> Any way to backup everything I have on here, pacages, settings, etc?
[09:00] <eichi> Minifigure: should work too, but you have to understand partition, copieing from live cd and things like that

[09:05] <Minifigure> I have problems with networking two Linux machines.  I know they do see eachothr via Windows Network.

[09:10] <kurtis> Does anyone have experience with getting SSH to work with color codes, ncurses, and all of that fun cli stuff?
[09:10] <llutz> bullgard4: exec-bit isn't related to the contents of a file. so openoffice seem to set it, which sounds pointless to me
[09:10] <alvin_> join #ubuntu-cn
[09:10] <kurtis> alvin: Who?

[09:11] <freapwar> anybody know how to make xchat open up irc:// sites from google chrome?
[09:11] <eichi> Minifigure: then you can learn without big problems ;) read about gparted (its very very easy) and use it from ubuntu livecd, make an partition on the new haddisc. then read some lines about the linux root strukture (easy too) then find them in wubi and copy to new driver. then you have to read about your windows bootloader, to make the right entry. that should be all, you have to do
[09:11] <kurtis> freapwar: you _might_ be able to use the "default application" dialog
[09:11] <om26er> freapwar, do they open with firefox?
[09:11] <kurtis> freapwar: Although it's probably an option in google chrome

[09:13] <firc> I am using Ubuntu 9.04. And I downloaded vlc. But i'm unable to play most of my video files, MKV for instance? How can i fix this?
[09:13] <kurtis> firc: Codecs
[09:13] <Minifigure> My plan is to scrap Windows altogether and just run Ubuntu Linux.
[09:13] <firc> I've tried installing a lot of packages as mentioned on the internet
[09:13] <firc> But, i can't seem to figure out which one is the right one
[09:13] <firc> is tehr an official list somewhere, which might help me?
[09:13] <firc> *there
[09:14] <firc> kurtis: which one?
[09:14] <eichi> Minifigure: i would recommend to backup the whole homefolder and  then make new install, then copy the files back
[09:14] <GeppyZ> hi all. I have a question. I have written a C++ program and created a debian package installer for it. After it is installed, i'd like to autostart the program. How can i achieve this? I've tried adding a postinst script wich does the following: /usr/bin/myapp& however the application stops as soon as i close the debian installer.
[09:14] <eichi> its the fastest and easyiest
[09:14] <eichi> there are all your configs from browser, email client, background, all the things
[09:14] <Minifigure> OKay.
[09:14] <john__> quick question
[09:14] <kurtis> firc: Actually I think VLC usually embeds its own codecs...
[09:14] <john__> if i upgrade via cd will i lose all my files
[09:14] <AdvoWork> ive downloaded acrobat reader 9 for linux, and its a .bin   how do i go about installing this :S
[09:15] <kurtis> firc: What's going wrong with it?
[09:15] <firc> I have, vlc version 0.9.9a-2ubuntu1
[09:15] <eichi> Minifigure: i dont think, you did much system changes, means you only have to install and reupdates all, would need 30 min
[09:15] <_zux> hi all
[09:15] <kurtis> AfvoWork: form the command line, chmod u+x <filename>; ./<filename>
[09:15] <firc> when i try to play a MKV file, vlc shows : "Streaming / Transcoding failed: VLC could not open the encoder."
[09:16] <eichi> Minifigure: then insert the backup disc and copy all files from homefolder to homefolder, incl. then hidden files (view -> hidden files)
[09:16] <eichi> then logout and login again
[09:16] <eichi> all should be as on wubi before
[09:16] <ennui> clan talk anyone know how I can make an alias of a folder I am sharing over samba? I want to make an alias of my music collection directory so I can use it as the library for the guayadeque music player

[09:17] <firc> kurtis: i did, sudo apt-get install vlc
[09:17] <92AAAKEFB> speaking of players, is it possible to get the Totem Movie Player to output using GLSink? Basically, Gnome MPlayer seems to have a problem when rescaling the image in fullscreen, i get thin bars at the top and bottom that are not covered by the black bar....and MPlayer is perfect with GL output, however I would like a "nicer" gui...like that of Totem
[09:17] <rich_> i think my ipod is broken as it refuses to mount in windows too
[09:17] <eichi> ennui: you can make softlinks from folder to folder from everywhere t everywhere. you know them?
[09:17] <csaba__> hi, anyone here with ldap experience?
[09:17] <kurtis> firc: you could try getting a package straight from the videolan website. im pretty sure it self-contains all of its' codecs.
[09:18] <firc> kurtis: hmm. Is there no other way?
[09:18] <kurtis> firc: You could also look for log files possibly. I'm not sure where they would be stored. maybe ~./vlc or something similar
[09:18] <firc> kurtis: ok
[09:18] <Minifigure> migration
[09:18] <Minifigure> oops
[09:18] <csaba__> I am trying to authenticate an ubuntu 10.04 against an ldap on another ubuntu
[09:18] <kurtis> firc: I mean ~/.vlc or something similar
[09:18] <dassouki> in empathy, when changing status to online, it only enables one and not all accounts
[09:18] <csaba__> getent group and getent passwd works
[09:19] <csaba__> btu can not login with any ldap users
[09:19] <eichi> Minifigure: got to go, good luck ;)
[09:19] <cgethycx> firc- vlc is up to 1.0.5 and is working perfectly on 10.04 and i got it from ubuntu software center
[09:19] <csaba__> I would appreciate any help
[09:19] <Minifigure> Take care and thank you
[09:19] <eichi> Minifigure: you can reach my by jabber at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>is you have questions again

[09:20] <jigal> can antone help me with this? http://pastebin.com/Dm2BYaiX
[09:20] <ennui> eichi: I'm afraid I don't know what you mean.
[09:20] <csaba__> any ideas?
[09:21] <ennui> eichi: I tried "make link" thinking that was like an alias but it told me the source didn't "support symbolic links"
[09:21] <kurtis> jigal: Looks like you need to install a Java Runtime and possibly create a /bin/java alias as well
[09:22] <jigal> kurtis: but i think that i did something wrong with the paths or so
[09:22] <kurtis> jigal: Yeah I would think Java would be found in /usr/bin or anyonewhere but /bin/
[09:23] <firepilot> I'm recompiling the ubuntu kernel on my macbook. how do I add the efivars module?
[09:23] <kurtis> jigal: You can try closing and opening your terminal window unless you've modified your .bashrc (or other shell configuraiton) file
[09:23] <ennui> the directory I'm trying to alias is on OSX being shared via smb
[09:23] <kurtis> ennui: So you want to make it look like its a directory on your own system?
[09:23] <kurtis> ennui: Basically, mount it?
[09:24] <ennui> kurtis: exactly, I'm afraid I don't know much about networking.
[09:25] <kurtis> ennui: no problem. Are you sure it's a samba share?
[09:25] <kurtis> ennui: Samba is/was generally a Windows service but I haven't used a map in a while
[09:25] <kurtis> mac*
[09:25] <jigal> kurtis: still the same error
[09:26] <ennui> well, I have smb as my sharing method on the osx machine. and I connect to server on the ubuntu machine with "windows share" as the option
[09:26] <kurtis> jigal: can you run "whereis java" for me?
[09:27] <kurtis> ennui: Okay sounds like it then
[09:27] <jigal> kurtis java: /usr/bin/java /etc/java /usr/lib/java /usr/share/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz
[09:27] <ennui> /usr/bin/java
[09:27] <ennui> <-- idiot
[09:27] <kurtis> lol
[09:28] <kurtis> ennui: Check out this site. This guy is doing something similar to you but not using a mac. (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=280473)
[09:28] <kurtis> jigal: Are you running a script that is executing those commands you posted?
[09:28] <jigal> kurtis: what do you mean
[09:29] <kurtis> jigal: Are you manually typing in /usr/bin ....., or are you running some kind of program or script that is trying to start a java program?
[09:29] <maxie> need a way to fix a corrupted folder on a external hdd,any idea?
[09:29] <kurtis> I mean /bin/java ...
[09:30] <jigal> kurtis: no i am running a .sh script
[09:30] <chandru_in> HD videos are very choppy when played with Totem/VLC/gnome-mplayer.  Graphics card: Built-in Intel
[09:30] <kurtis> jigal: Okay I have 2 options for you. First, you can cahnge the script to replace /bin/java with /usr/bin/java or you can make a link
[09:30] <kurtis> jigal: I would recommend modifying the script, personally
[09:30] <chandru_in> relevant part of lspci "00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)"
[09:30] <csaba__> so any ideas?
[09:31] <jigal> kurtis: i think the problem appeared after i set the JAVA_HOME and the $PATH i think something is wrong over there
[09:31] <kurtis> jigal: oh are you trying to install a java web server or something?
[09:32] <jigal> kurtis: i am trying to install cruisecontroll and phpUnit
[09:33] <corpsegrindr> Some days streaming tv from my server works just fine and some nights it wants to buffer every 3 sec. I have no other down/uploads going and minimal use of bandwidth. Is there any key targets i can look for to fix this problem?
[09:33] <corpsegrindr> or is there a way to have a video file temp load well on pause (kind of like youtube)
[09:33] <chandru_in> Is there anyway to fix this?
[09:34] <rich_> how do i get the fan sensors applet?
[09:34] <kurtis> jigal: You could possibly try 'sudo ln -s /usr/bin/java /bin/java' and then just make sure you remove the /bin/java file when you're done
[09:34] <rich_> i have lm-sensors installed
[09:35] <kurtis> rich_: sudo apt-cache search fan sensors
[09:36] <skramer_> I want to access my USB scanner from other PC in my Home-LAN, what do I need to do?
[09:36] <kurtis> jigal: If you messed up your paths, you should fix them. Or at least bring them back to a "default" state.
[09:36] <jigal> kurtis: well messing up is easy but fixig ;-
[09:37] <kurtis> lol
[09:37] <kurtis> jigal: breaking and fixing is how you learn
[09:38] <kurtis> skramer_: What exactly do you mean? Like how do you want to access it?
[09:38] <kurtis> skramer: There's probably a solution out there somewhere but if not, you could just write a script to scan and put the file in a shared directory or something similar
[09:39] <kurtis> jigal: Let me know if that symbolic link works out for you
[09:39] <skramer_> kurtis: the scanner is connected to desktop PC, but I want to use scan program on my laptop
[09:39] <zijo> hello
[09:39] <skramer_> kurtis: so far, the laptop says it could not see any scan device
[09:39] <kurtis> skramer_: I'm not really sure how easy that would be to do. You'd have to have some sort of USB over Lan type of thing
[09:40] <zijo> how can i change display resolution in xubuntu ???
[09:41] <skramer_> kurtis: I believe saned has to run on desktop, but all information I found was for older versions of Ubuntu

[09:41] <Radi> hi

[09:43] <zijo> kurtis: no i have 3 rezolution listen and de max is 1024x768 but i can it be higher ?
[09:43] <cgethycx> will ebox ever finish installing?
[09:43] <kurtis> skramer_: Sorry, I'm not really familiar with using sane. But I did find this (alternative) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=679028
[09:43] <kurtis> zijo: Do you know if your hardware supports a higher resolution?
[09:44] <kurtis> Radi: When you installed Ubuntu, did it not automatically configure it properly or something?
[09:45] <zijo> kurtis: yes , on win xp it is on 1240x1024 (or so )
[09:45] <skramer_> kurtis: I'll give it a try, thank you
[09:45] <Radi> screen resolution is fine, but graphics works slow ...i think i need good drivers ...am i right ?
[09:46] <kurtis> zijo: You might be able to get by with just editing the xorg.conf file. (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=83973)

[09:48] <kurtis> freenode-fan: Out of curiosity, is that a script?
[09:49] <freenode-fan> no, i just copy pasted what the script produces, then i illustrated what i've tried and what the result should be...
[09:50] <kurtis> freenode-fan: Oh. Here's a little tutorial I google'd up real quickly on using sort. (http://lowfatlinux.com/linux-sort.html)
[09:51] <kurtis> freenode-fan: It looks like its sorting your third column instead of second column. But you're using variables for those options. Possibly (x - 1) for whichever field it is?
