[00:00] <P5|3> itachi: then create a shortcut on your desktop with the command: openarena
[00:00] <lwizardl> WDC: right click the torrent file on your computer and then select open with
[00:00] <trinaryShift> WDC: No problem. VLC will play just about anything you throw at it, and it's pretty light. Definitely my favorite video player.
[00:00] <P5|3> itachi: then just click it and the game should start
[00:00] <r4b> actually, i'vejust noticed that my linux partition is an extended one, comprising of the root and swap partition. Is it still safe to resize?
[00:00] <P5|3> I am trying to use a static IP address to eth0 which works, but I can not access my routers configuration page (times out) neither can I ping anything else in the network. If I do the same on my windows pc it works! What am I doing wrong?
[00:00] <lwizardl> WDC: sorry forgot something. right click the torrent file, select properties, then select open with
[00:01] <itachi> P5|3, so i'll go in terminal nd open terminal nd type what command again
[00:01] <WDC> lwizardl: Thanks!
[00:01] <WDC> trinaryShift: I used it on Windows and I loved it as well
[00:01] <lwizardl> WDC: with that you can change your default programs on opening anything.
[00:01] <gleyve> Frostwire? Limewire? ou aMule?
[00:01] <trinaryShift> r4b: I'd say back up all your data first regardless
[00:01] <__mikem> gleyve, noneof the above
[00:01] <Bjorn_> Can someone helpme PLEASE? When I start the live CD, and then go to the Try version.. It loads, but then if I want to install it, when clicking on 'Install' @ the desktop, it doesn't even load, then I tried to do the command in the terminal, and it gave the following error: http://rafb.net/p/xe6gul93.html So it doesn't even install..
[00:01] <trinaryShift> WDC: Yep, same here. Fantastic little program.
[00:01] <lwizardl> WDC: no problem i had that issue when I was starting to use ubuntu. I prefer to use azureus for my torrents
[00:01] <gleyve> what do u advice?
[00:02] <__mikem> gleyve, transmission
[00:02] <WDC> lwizardl: I'm not REALLY a Java fan. Not that it's bad, just I don't like it
[00:02] <r4b> well, there isnt really any important stuff yet, just wondering if it'd affect anything since it's an extended partiton
[00:02] <P5|3> itachi: 1st start ubuntu, 2nd push alt+F2, 3rd type openarena
[00:02] <P5|3> itachi: this should work
[00:02] <hari_> hello!  I appear to be having a problem with a single commercial DVD's playback.  I already have libdvdcss, and can play other dvd's.  Unfortunately, this one locks up my machine.  The disk is a retail version of 'Pursuit of Happyness"  Any ideas?
[00:02] <FFEMTcJ> is it possible to run compiz on a system with an nvidia card and two monitors
[00:02] <itachi> P5|3, ok be brb
[00:02] <lwizardl> WDC: yeah i'm not a huge fan of java either but it seems to work for me better on SBC isp
[00:03] <Dumbakchi> hari i have an idea... have you heard of a program called ogle
[00:03] <squiddy> hi all.. i'm having an issue with scrolling down page on firefox, it is not smotth/lag or something
[00:03] <Dumbakchi> its an old project, but i used it once for playing dvd's, and it was very good
[00:03] <WDC> lwizardl: hmmm. That's interesting. I am on ATT (with my connection it's technicly SBC)
[00:03] <trinaryShift> FFEMTcJ: I'm fairly certain that it is, you'd just have to make sure everything's configured nicely. I've got it to work flawlessly with no additional configuration, however.
[00:04] <lwizardl> WDC: yeah i've been having issues with the p2p blocking crap
[00:04] <r4b> forgive me if this is stupid, but i cant resize the partition ubuntu is currently running on, can I?
[00:04] <P5|3> r4b: no
[00:04] <squiddy> r4b, u can't, use live CD instead
[00:04] <r4b> though as much
[00:04] <FFEMTcJ> trinaryShift: ive been tryin for a couple days now... i cant use the propriatary drivers with two monitors, and cant get compiz working without the propriatary drivers
[00:04] <trinaryShift> gleyve: I'd recommend getting azureus from the repositories (as it's the older, smaller version...much more suited to my tastes) for torrenting files
[00:04] <gleyve> __mikem: u mean bit torrent transmission?
[00:04] <hari_> Dumbakchi, NO, I don't think I have.  I've tried to play the disk in Totem, and VLC.  Totem locks up the machine, and VLC just flickers, and stops.
[00:05] <Dumbakchi> ok... in a terminal type: sudo apt-get install ogle
[00:05] <r4b> i'm on a netbook so no cd drive. I have a liveusb though, i'll do it later. Thanks for the advice
[00:05] <Dumbakchi> followed by sudo apt-get install ogle-gui
[00:05] <trinaryShift> FFEMTcJ: Hmm. How did you install your drivers?
[00:05] <gmoore> looking to pick up a new videocard for my HTPC running ubuntu + XBMC linuxport. as far as support + performance + stability goes , should i look at nvidia or ati?
[00:06] <P5|3> gmoore: i like nvidia way better
[00:06] <FFEMTcJ> i installed them from system>admin>hardware drivers.. but then when i used nvidia-settings, did the dual monitors using xinerama it changed from the propriatary to some other ones
[00:06] <WDC> Thanks all. g2g. VLC FTW
[00:06] <lwizardl> gmoore: Nvidia has lots of support
[00:06] <lwizardl> in Linux
[00:06] <gmoore> so ati is probably a poor choice just from a support standpoint then
[00:07] <squiddy> gmoore, nvidia have better support for linux
[00:07] <Chris|> where's the helpers file?
[00:07] <majnoon> gmoore, nvidia
[00:07] <Zozma> gmoore: correct
[00:07] <squiddy> hi all.. i'm having an issue with scrolling down page on firefox, it is not smotth/lag or something ? need help to fix this
[00:07] <Dumbakchi> thats true... ati driver support isn't very good on linux
[00:07] <Chris|> or more rather, where or how can i add a app to the helpers list?
[00:07] <trinaryShift> FFEMTcJ: I used Envy to configure all my nvidia graphics stuff, and that's worked out pretty well for me. It might be worth a try (the package is called envy-ng now, I believe).
[00:07] <Zozma> some people have said ati's drivers have gotten a lot better in the last year or two, and they have
[00:07] <Zozma> but they still suck
[00:07] <hari_> Dumbakchi, I just opened the disk in AcidRip, and it says that there are 94 titles on the disk...  O.O
[00:07] <Dumbakchi> i see...
[00:07] <FFEMTcJ> trinaryShift: hardware drivers actually says that the propriatery are still in use.. however, when i go to appearance > visual effects and click normal, it says the composite extension is not available
[00:08] <FFEMTcJ> trinaryShift: ill try it
[00:08] <trinaryShift> squiddy: Have you installed the correct graphics drivers?
[00:08] <lwizardl> Has anyone here setup a point of sale cash register using Linux?
[00:08] <Dumbakchi> have you tried installing ogle? type this: sudo apt-get install ogle; sudo apt-get install ogle-gui
[00:08] <trinaryShift> FFEMTcJ: Yeah, envy is a python script that will automatically download the relevant drivers and configure your xorg.conf file.
[00:08] <Chris|> lwizardl, i'm sure its possible, Lowes uses linux
[00:08] <Dumbakchi> into a terminal
[00:09] <squiddy> trinaryShift, yes, i have (i think) through hardware drivers menu. i have 2 machines, 1 with nvidia, other with ati. both having the same issue
[00:09] <Chris|> lwizardl, i'm not exactly sure what Lowes uses linux for though
[00:09] <mcphail> hari_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARccOS
[00:09] <Cocoabean> lwizardl http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=471289
[00:10] <FFEMTcJ> trinaryShift: there isn't an envy-ng.. there are a bunch of things that come back though with a search of envy
[00:10] <iMatter> I have an grub or kernal error i have alot of kernals but grub and startup manager only show 2 and these two are old  2.6.24-15-generic and 2.6.24-15-generic
[00:10] <hari_> Chris|, Lowes also has the money to build a POS system from scratch...  Unfortunately...
[00:10] <lwizardl> yeah i've read these but seems 99% of the Linux software for POS is for food or resturants
[00:10] <kitche> FFEMTcJ: envyng
[00:10] <trinaryShift> squiddy: Ok, I'm going to suggest that you use envy, simply because it's worked for me in the past. Give me a second to find the package name
[00:10] <trinaryShift> FFEMTcJ: Hmm, hold on a sec
[00:11] <kitche> !envy
[00:11] <hari_> lwizardl, Unfortunately, the company I work for just set one up for a woman, but we ended up using windows, cause the windows program had very large colorful buttons, which was important, because the woman is going blind.
[00:11] <trinaryShift> ah ok
[00:11] <squiddy> trinaryShift, i used envy once, still won't work i out.
[00:11] <trinaryShift> FFEMTcJ: Yeah, the name of the package is envyng. No hyphen :/
[00:12] <__mikem> gleyve, yes
[00:12] <trinaryShift> squiddy: What version of ubuntu and firefox are you using, by the way?
[00:13] <squiddy> trinaryShift, it's ubuntu 8.04.1 and FF 3.0.1
[00:13] <Dumbakchi> im back
[00:13] <legend2440> squiddy: in firefox address bar type about:config  then in Filter box type scroll   see if smooth scroll is set to true
[00:13] <Dumbakchi> hari_, any luck?
[00:13] <lwizardl> hari_: yeah I currently have 5 computers setup to test various pos applications (Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Windows 2k, Windows XP) and none I have found I truly like so far. the system will mainly be used by myself (i'll be 29 on the 29th of this month, and my vision is fine) :)
[00:13] <trinaryShift> squiddy: Also try turning off compiz or any desktop effects you might have on.
[00:13] <squiddy> legend2440, i'll try it
[00:14] <squiddy> trinaryShift, i got 4gb of ram, AMD X2 5000+ and nvidia 8600GT, so i think it's not about lack of resources
[00:15] <eligos> ok, I know this a stupid question but I just can't do it, can anyone tell me how to join a channel in xchat<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[00:15] <trinaryShift> squiddy: Ha ha, alright. Good to know. (Almost exact same setup as me, by the way :D)
[00:15] <tonsofpcs> eligos: how did you get here?
[00:16] <lwizardl> hari_: so does that mean you know alot about register setups?
[00:16] <squiddy> trinaryShift, ya, that's what confused me :D
[00:16] <shingen> eligos: /server irc.rizon.net and then after it opens a new server window, /join #4chan, btard :P
[00:16] <FFEMTcJ> trinaryShift: i installed envy, and then used that to install the driver it had.. still get the "the composite extention is not available"
[00:16] <trinaryShift> squiddy: Hmm. I used to have the exact same problem, but I can't remember what I did to solve it...
[00:17] <squiddy> legend2440, is it general.smoothScroll?

[00:18] <trinaryShift> FFEMTcJ: Ok. I'm going to have to suggest trying the forums then + extensive google searching with compiz + your graphics card, etc.

[00:21] <hermes0710> hi from greece
[00:21] <netsui> mortuis99: You can use 'sudo nautilus' to open a nautilus window with root priviledges. That should let you copy the script into the necessary folder.
[00:21] <IdleOne> mib_76rvwtax, focus. is that folder on your Desktop?
[00:21] <liamkmc> hi
[00:21] <mortuis99> that is it in or that it goes in?

[00:21] <mib_76rvwtax> i did the cd code
[00:21] <Dumbakchi> mib_76rvwtax, what do you mean the command doesn't work? do you mean it doesn't display any output?
[00:22] <mib_76rvwtax> output
[00:22] <mib_76rvwtax> step 6 doesnt work
[00:22] <mortuis99> netsui that is it in or that it goes in?  and how do i change it?
[00:22] <Dumbakchi> mib_76rvwtax, if a command doesn't display output, it usually means it worked!
[00:22] <IdleOne> !doesnwork
[00:22] <IdleOne> !doesntwork
[00:22] <trinaryShift> mortuis99: Follow netsui's advice.

[00:23] <aLeSD> does pulseaudio have the same lowlatency of jack ?
[00:23] <unop> P5|3, could be any number of reasons - the ip address is incorrect for that network, the link is down, the interface is down, the router does not respond to pings, etc
[00:23] <hari_> lwizardl, What industry are you in?
[00:23] <netsui> mortuis99: That the script goes in. And what do you mean by 'how do you change it?'?
[00:23] <mib_76rvwtax> no targets specified and no makefiles
[00:23] <mib_76rvwtax> cmon
[00:23] <mortuis99> how do i change the permissions there?
[00:23] <mortuis99> im sorta new so...
[00:23] <hari_> !arccos
[00:24] <trinaryShift> mib_76rvwtax: are you in the directory with the make file?
[00:24] <Kumorigoe> ! network
[00:24] <Kumorigoe> ...
[00:24] <netsui> mortuis99: I usually changer permissions in the terminal. But, I'm pretty sure that you can just right click and bring up a folder properties window.
[00:24] <izaak> t
[00:24] <mortuis99> im properties wont let me do it
[00:25] <mortuis99> i have tried that
[00:25] <mortuis99> cd root

[00:41] <ASrock> my motherboard has built in wireless and i also have an ethernet cord plugged into it...is there a way i can be connected to both of them at the same time just in case one fails?
[00:41] <liamkmc> tolis, yeah??
[00:42] <tolis> yea
[00:42] <tolis> but i dint know hoe to do it
[00:42] <liamkmc> tolis, good
[00:42] <liamkmc> tolis, oh sorry
[00:42] <Trinithis> ganymede: I do not have those
[00:42] <ganymede> Trinithis: grep around /var/log for sda since /dev/sda is the name given to your first sata drive
[00:42] <KOJV> Smor1, install the propertary driver from System / Hardware drivers.
[00:42] <tolis> why you sorry liamkmc?
[00:43] <KOJV> How to update Firefox to the latest, SWEDISH version?
[00:43] <KOJV> I downloaded it and unpacked it, but I don't know what to do with it next.
[00:43] <ganymede> Trinithis: if you don't have an sata module loaded, then your sata controller was not recognized. are you using a recent kernel?
[00:43] <KOJV> ./update won't do.
[00:43] <DreamLnr> hello
[00:44] <liamkmc> tolis, sounded horrible tolis but i dint know hoe to do it liamkmc: tolis, good
[00:44] <ganymede> Trinithis: lspci will tell you what sata controller you have; might point you in the right direction. i have to go. bye and good luck
[00:44] <Gman99999> can i un-install glx and just use the nvidia driver?
[00:44] <Gman99999> Does anyone know?
[00:44] <Trinithis> ganymede: k thx
[00:44] <Flare183> !anyone | Gman99999
[00:44] <dr_Willis> Gman99999,  you could just edit the xorg.conf to  use the nv driver. no need to 'uninstall' the other.
[00:44] <Gnea> !firefox3 | KOJV
[00:44] <dr_Willis> Gman99999,  you proberly should edit it to use the nv driver. befor trying to remove the other in any case.
[00:45] <tolis> liamkmc do you know how can i use the ntfs?
[00:45] <Gman99999> dr_willis so i change the glx to "nv"
[00:45] <liamkmc> tolis, just incase http://czarism.com/easy-peasy-mount-ntfs-w-ubuntu-linux
[00:45] <KOJV> Gnea, but I want it in Swedish.
[00:45] <DreamLnr> i have chowned my www dir to my user user1. If i add the user www-data via the group file, will the files be accessible?
[00:45] <unop> KOJV, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion
[00:45] <leeping2008> Hi there, anyone here know how I can toggle HTML on and off in Thunderbird?  There is an extension that I downloaded but it does not work.
[00:45] <Flare183> !ntfs | tolis
[00:45] <Gnea> !swedish | KOJV
[00:45] <WDC> Hey how do I start Deskbar?
[00:45] <tolis> let me check liamkmc
[00:45] <Gman99999> dr_willis Im having trouble getting compiz to load in kde, it just won't work properly for some reason
[00:45] <dr_Willis> Gman99999,  No.. you change the   Driver 'nvidia' line. to be  Driver 'nv' I recall.
[00:45] <DreamLnr> i have chowned my www dir to my user user1. If i add the user www-data via the group file to the group of user user1, will the files be accessible?
[00:45] <Smor1> KOJV: What' s the propertary driver?
[00:45] <dr_Willis> Gman99999,  well the nv driver wont allow compiz  either..
[00:45] <unop> DreamLnr, you shouldn't edit the group file directly -- inface, NEVER do that.  use the appropriate tools to do it for you.
[00:45] <Flare183> Gman99999: try running it in konsole and pastebin what you get
[00:46] <kitche> DreamLnr: you just really add to add the users to the www-data group
[00:46] <KOJV> Smor1, the Nvidia one.
[00:46] <KOJV> Smor1, makes your graphics work.
[00:46] <unop> DreamLnr, just ensure that the group on /var/www is www-data after adding your user to the www-data group.
[00:46] <liamkmc> how do i customize
[00:46] <KOJV> Gnea, they can't help, they've all gone to bed.
[00:46] <liamkmc> conky
[00:46] <WDC> Hey how do I start Deskbar?
[00:46] <mcphail> DreamLnr: not a good idea to add www-data to your own group
[00:46] <Smor1> KOJV: It just says no proprietary drivers are on your system...
[00:46] <Gman99999> dr_willis what about the loading module only glx is shown
[00:46] <dr_Willis> liamkmc,  you make/edit/customize your own .conkyrc config file.  the conky homepage has docs/examples
[00:47] <MXIIA> Is it possible to type the ALT + ### like in Windows?
[00:47] <DreamLnr> i want the www folder to be inaccessible by other users
[00:47] <DreamLnr> except www-data and my user
[00:47] <KOJV> Smor1, okay and it doesn't offer one to be enabled?
[00:47] <trojatra> MXIIA, Alt+###?
[00:47] <unop> DreamLnr, just add those users to the www-data group.
[00:47] <dr_Willis> Gman99999,  glx module wont do much if you are not using the 'nvidia' driver. and i thought the nvidia driver replaced the glx module. You may be  looking in the wrong places for the answer to your real problems
[00:47] <Smor1> no just says Help / Close
[00:47] <Klick__> Hey all, I was using ipw2200 and my wireless device has always been seen, I just recently applied the latest upgrade via synaptic and now the device is not found.  I am running Linux x41 2.6.24-21-generic and when I try to manualy modprobe ipw2200 I get a bunch of unknown symbols in dmesg, any help?
[00:47] <liamkmc> dr_Willis, thanks
[00:47] <KOJV> How to update Firefox to the latest, SWEDISH version? I downloaded it and unpacked it, but I don't know what to do with it next. ./update won't do.

[00:47] <mcphail> DreamLnr: then change permissions appropriately and make yourself a member of the www-data group
[00:47] <MXIIA> like Ü
[00:47] <KOJV> Smor1, okay get an AGP or PCI-E Nvidia card...
[00:48] <trojatra> MXIIA, I don't know, try it out?

[00:48] <WDC> !deskbar
[00:48] <DreamLnr> what does the second mean?
[00:48] <KOJV> unop, that's a very complicated guide. :-o
[00:48] <AzizLight> what's the difference between the emacs and the emacs22 packages in hardy please?
[00:48] <WDC> How do I start Deskbar? I know it's installed.
[00:48] <Pici> KOJV: install the mozilla-firefox-locale-sv-se package
[00:48] <Smor1> Is there a way to halt X from botting up at start and go to terminal?
[00:48] <unop> KOJV, it has all the information you need.
[00:48] <KOJV> Pici, where's that at?
[00:48] <Gman99999> dr_willis I would like the nvidia driver to load again, that would be cool, I'm looking in the xorg.conf and i don't see what your describing at all, very difference things, the module load section is where it says glx, there is no driver section anyway, only input devices
[00:48] <KOJV> Pici, apt-get?
[00:49] <Pici> KOJV: Providing that you are running Hardy, that is.
[00:49] <Pici> KOJV: yep
[00:49] <MXIIA> thanks unop
[00:49] <dr_Willis> Gman99999,  searching for the line  Driver
[00:49] <gradin> whats the smallest gui desktop suite to install forubuntu
[00:49] <Pici> KOJV: Then go to Tools>Addons>Languages in Firefox and enable it.
[00:49] <gradin> ?
[00:49] <unop> !info emacs22 | AzizLight
[00:50] <KOJV> Thanks unop.
[00:50] <KOJV> Thank you very much, Pici!
[00:50] <dr_Willis> Gman99999,  try  ' grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf ' it should show several lines with the Driver option in them..
[00:50] <DreamLnr> will somebody explain me please?
[00:50] <dr_Willis> Gman99999,  my working xorg.conf (tweaked slightly) --> http://pastebin.com/f1e7658a6
[00:50] <node357> how do I make a tar file and add .ttf files into it?
[00:51] <WDC> Will ANYONE tell me how to start Deskbar? I know it's installed
[00:51] <KOJV> DreamLnr, you seem hard to explain, given I only know you by a nick on the IRC...
[00:51] <unop> AzizLight, emacs is the metapackage which pulls in one of the actual emacs packages, i.e. emacs22, emacs-nox, xemacs, etc
[00:51] <Pici> WDC: its a panel applet, do you know how to add applets to a panel.
[00:51] <gradin> anybody know what takes the least amount of disk space on ubuntu? kde, xubuntu... or any others?
[00:51] <Gman99999> dr_willis ok there's like 7 options, for my video cards they both have the nvidia driver loaded, but if i go to load the nvidia driver settings in the system settings it gives me a message saying You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.
[00:51] <loafimus> does anyone know of a good front end for SCP/FTP similar to winscp?
[00:51] <DreamLnr> KOJV, i gave a question and i tried not to repeat it, but, my fear, that you would miss my question, came true:)
[00:51] <DreamLnr> again:
[00:51] <WDC> Pici: No I do not. Thanks for replying

[00:52] <DreamLnr> the first 'root' is an owner
[00:52] <FicaBlok38> hello
[00:52] <DreamLnr> what does the second 'root'  mean?
[00:52] <Pici> DreamLnr: The second is the group.
[00:52] <IdleOne> dreamedge, user group
[00:52] <unop> DreamLnr, the second one is the group
[00:52] <DreamLnr> aah
[00:52] <DreamLnr> thanks
[00:52] <DreamLnr> :)
[00:52] <FloodBot1> DreamLnr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:52] <FicaBlok38> where i can download kvirc 3.4.0
[00:52] <trojatra> gradin, I'm almost positive Xubuntu for desktop, but server edition is even lighter.
[00:52] <FicaBlok38> amd 64?
[00:52] <unop> !enter | DreamLnr
[00:52] <Pici> WDC: Right click on a panel, go to add to panel and select deskbar
[00:52] <KOJV> Pici, that didn't make Firefox in Swedish though.....
[00:53] <WDC> Pici: Fancy fancy. THANKS!
[00:53] <Pici> KOJV: It should... did you change your language options within Firefox as well?
[00:53] <DreamLnr> question 3: what is the name of tool to manage my groups (add, remove users, etc)?
[00:53] <KOJV> Pici, there is nowhere to do that. There's a language setting at the Contents tab, but that doesn't seem to apply.
[00:53] <unop> DreamLnr, for a GUI, users-admin perhaps
[00:53] <Klick__> will installing the source code for my wifi driver mess up synaptic with security upgrades?
[00:53] <Pici> KOJV: What version of firefox are you running? And what version of Ubuntu?
[00:53] <DreamLnr> and for command line?
[00:54] <gradin> mmm... i need something for my girlfriend Eee PC
[00:54] <gradin> so less than 2GB total
[00:54] <AzizLight> unop: that probably means that I should install emacs22 if I want to use the editor right? :S
[00:54] <FicaBlok38> anybody?
[00:54] <KOJV> Pici, Ubuntu Hardy Heron with all the updates, FF3...

[00:54] <gradin> ah xubuntu 1.7 gb
[00:54] <gradin> :)
[00:55] <Pici> KOJV: Is there a languages section in Tools>Addons?
[00:55] <mcphail> DreamLnr: use adduser rather than useradd, generally
[00:55] <arquebus> also there is #eeepc freenode channel
[00:55] <KOJV> Pici, yes but English is available only.
[00:55] <Pici> KOJV: Have you restarted firefox since installing that package that I suggested?
[00:56] <KOJV> Pici, yes.
[00:56] <trojatra> What is the base install size of Ubuntu 8.04?
[00:56] <Klick__> If anyone has the binary to ipw2200 would you mind emailing to me?

[00:56] <KOJV> Pici, rebooting the system.....
[00:57] <KOJV> trojatra, you need like a twenty gigabyte drive.

[01:08] <KOJV> Pici, that's okay, thanks for trying!
[01:08] <Smor1> unop: xserver-org is not installed ?
[01:08] <Smor1> thats what I get
[01:08] <qr> discombobulated: you need to add them to /etc/fstab
[01:08] <dewdrop> Can't find Display settings for Resolution in KDE. . Im use to Gnome. Can anyone help me?
[01:08] <tolis> unop: can i make another mount anythink i want?
[01:09] <unop> Smor1, that would be xserver-xorg
[01:09] <Smor1> ok
[01:09] <unop> tolis, yes
[01:09] <Raspberry> this new desktop theme is rough... brown on burnt umber
[01:09] <discombobulated> qr, i tried, no luck. my fstab is all messed up
[01:09] <eltux> I installed the g15daemon for my keyboard but it doesn't automatically start with the session. is there a way that i can make it so it does?
[01:09] <Smor1> xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration

[01:10] <unop> Smor1, no, just restart X should be enough
[01:10] <qr> discombobulated: well then you need to fix it... /etc/fstab is the thing that controlls what drives are mounted on boot.
[01:10] <Kumool> ctrl+alt+backspace Smor1
[01:10] <highland_> Please help! I have problem with damaged partition. Testdisk see deleted files, but how could I save them e.g. on pendrive?
[01:10] <Smor1> and then start x to restart it?
[01:10] <fam> unop:  the link, does not explain runlevels and even the wiki page on runlevel in ubuntu does not explain, when network is setted up while booting...
[01:10] <hwilde_> is there a firefox xpi plugin yet?  want to see this page:  http://www.bassdrive.com/cam/
[01:11] <Kumool> Smor1, it should simply restart... you cant tell it not to
[01:11] <tolis> unop: what kind of mount can i create?
[01:11] <Kumool> because without it there is no X and you wont see anything
[01:11] <unop> fam, init starts networking as one of it's first tasks .. so if you call your script from /etc/rc.local .. it should be fine.
[01:11] <hwilde_> I need this xpi to work http://www.bassdrive.com/v2/lib/ext/cam/help_netscape.php
[01:11] <fam> unop thx
[01:12] <eltux> I can't get my partitions to mount right away. I have to manually select them to get them to mount. is there any way that they can automatically mount on startup?
[01:12] <unop> tolis, errm, just a simple mount point .. like a directory
[01:12] <mcphail> highland_: testdisk doesn't find deleted files. The companion program "photorec" does that

[01:15] <ghindo> d4t4min3r: Frostwire has a .deb on their site which you can download
[01:15] <d4t4min3r> after downloading i just
[01:15] <d4t4min3r> whats the command to instal... ghindo
[01:16] <Hamled> is there a shell app/script to setup my apt sources (other than just editing sources.list) ?

[01:17] <jscinoz> ghindo,  i meant
[01:17] <jscinoz> damn tab completioin :P
[01:17] <FloodBot1> jscinoz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:18] <Theaxiom> For people who want Facebook and Skype integrated with Pidgin: http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/ and http://code.google.com/p/skype4pidgin/
[01:18] <Theaxiom> Just found those, thought they might be useful to someone.
[01:18] <ghindo> jscinoz: Hrm.  Have you installed any new software lately?  Experimental drivers or something?  When did your system start doing this?
[01:18] <unop> Hamled, maybe this helps.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine
[01:18] <hwilde_> Theaxiom, why don't u post it to the wiki so ppl can search
[01:18] <Theaxiom> hwilde_: How do I do that?
[01:19] <tolis> unop: where the mount directory or file should be is in linux or xp?
[01:19] <hwilde_> !wiki | Theaxiom
[01:19] <AzizLight> I want to customize ubuntu, what should I download from gnome-look gtk2 metacity, compiz? I don't know what is what :S
[01:19] <jscinoz> ghindo, yesterday, no  new drivers (nvidia 173.something i think)
[01:19] <unop> tolis, if you are booted into linux .. linux obviously
[01:19] <hwilde_> Theaxiom, just login its free, then create a new page like wiki.ubuntu.com/Facebook+Skype+Pidgin+HOWTO
[01:19] <Theaxiom> hwilde_: Thanks, I will do that. They even have it specifically compiled for ubuntu
[01:20] <jscinoz> Theaxiom, the skype one, does it stil lrequire the official skype client to be open somewhere?
[01:20] <jscinoz> Theaxiom, oh wait it does,, kind of defeats the purpose :(
[01:20] <Theaxiom> jscinoz: Oh I didn't realize that, wtf?
[01:21] <jscinoz> Theaxiom, this is why closed protocols fail
[01:21] <jscinoz> no one can make a native skype plugin that doesnt need the official skype proggy open somewhere
[01:21] <Smor1> unop: Did what you said and when i did ctrl-alt-backspace to get back in i nevber got the low graphics mode message
[01:21] <Theaxiom> jscinoz: Nobody has reversed the protocol yet?
[01:21] <ghindo> jscinoz: Hrm, not sure what to say.  I'm glancing at Launchpad but I don't see any bug reports which pertain to your problem.  Sorry :(
[01:21] <Smor1> unop: but I can still only run at 800x600
[01:21] <KOJV> Pici, in case you're interested, I went to Language Support on System / Admin. It told me all Swedish packages weren't installed and asked me if I wanted to... and there we go. :-)
[01:22] <ghindo> Can someone help me use my AIM account in Empathy?
[01:22] <jscinoz> ghindo, thanks anyways, i was planning to do a ful lreinstall of this machine in a few days anyways, so it doesnt really matter
[01:22] <discombobulated> can someone tell me wtf my fstab is changing every time on reboot when i edit it?
[01:22] <jscinoz> Theaxiom, not that i know of
[01:22] <unop> Smor1, what modes does your setup support. use a terminal and issue this command.  xrandr
[01:22] <Pici> KOJV: Ah, thats good. /me notes
[01:22] <unop> discombobulated, did you save your edits?
[01:22] <Bjorn_> How can I change my resolution trough Terminal?
[01:22] <tj1515> can anyone suggest a good monitor calibration program i cannot seem to get the resolution and refresh rate i need
[01:22] <discombobulated> unop: yes
[01:22] <unop> Bjorn_, xrandr
[01:23] <unop> discombobulated, just how does it change?
[01:23] <Smor1> unop: min 640x480 maximum 800x600
[01:23] <Bjorn_> unop, then the following shows up; 'Can't open Display'
[01:23] <discombobulated> unop: idk, i'm on a kubuntu alpha but i can't get answered anywhere else
[01:23] <unop> Smor1, lspci | grep -i vga
[01:23] <tolis> unop: sorry but i can tcreat a mount tell me an exmple pls..:)

[01:24] <Mirin> I've got a laptop with only 128mb ram and I'd like to ditch windows. Will ubuntu work for me? If so, where can I find more info on installing on old laptops like mine?
[01:24] <discombobulated> also, i'm using konversation. any way to turn off all the annoying status messages, eg, leaving, way, etc
[01:24] <unop> !nvidia > Smor1
[01:24] <unop> Bjorn_, are you logged on in X at all?
[01:24] <tj1515> Miran: may want to try xbuntu
[01:24] <nottha_k> how do I invoke firefox's profile manager? the new ubuntu seems to have broken it. i used to just use -ProfileManager
[01:25] <Bjorn_> How do youmean on X ?
[01:25] <unop> discombobulated, i'm not sure what that means.
[01:25] <unop> Bjorn_, the GUI environment

[01:25] <Smor1> !nvidia ? Smor1

[01:26] <Alistair_> Help: trying to find drivers Gigabyte GeForce 7100 GS linux drivers
[01:26] <Mirin> is investigating xubuntu...
[01:26] <Smor1> unop: I accidentaly closed it can you do again?
[01:26] <KOJV> How to make the keyring holder remember it's password? So that the wlan password must not be given (nor the keyring holder password) at bootup?
[01:26] <Bjorn_> Dunno, just new on ubuntu.. And changed my resolution and now the screen flashes, so I did CTRL+ALT+F4 and now I am in the terminal to change my resolution but don't knoww howto, unop
[01:26] <unop> Smor1, check your PMs
[01:26] <Smor1> I closed the pm window
[01:26] <Smor1> accident
[01:26] <cwill747> !nvidia | Smor1
[01:26] <unop> Bjorn_, get back to your X session.  ctrl+alt+f7 .. open up a terminal and use xrandr there
[01:27] <tj1515> Miran: It runs better on pcs with less ram uses xfce
[01:27] <Bjorn_> aight
[01:27] <Smor1> unop: What is this meant to do?
[01:28] <discombobulated> fuck, i've probably spend $150 worth of time googling. i could get windows by now
[01:28] <cwill747> !language | discombobulated
[01:28] <tolis> unop: i type: sudo mount /sda1/media/mount_point and terminal says: mount: can't find /sda1/video/mount_point in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[01:28] <unop> Smor1, take you here if you followed the instructions - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:29] <trojatra> discombobulated, what are you searching for?
[01:29] <Smor1> ok thanks ill look into it
[01:29] <Smor1> whats the difference bwteen nvdia-glx-new and the restricted drivers?
[01:29] <unop> tolis, you probably want this.  sudo mount /dev/sda1  /media/mount_point
[01:30] <unop> tolis, but only you know which partition you want to mount there .. make sure you use the right device.
[01:30] <discombobulated> trojatra: can't get my stupid kubuntu to mount. it reverts my fstab changes upon reboot
[01:30] <dxdemetriou> when I use sudo in terminal, after writting my password it press another null enter. when I use gksudo, whatever is selected on the desktop it opens. anybody knows something about?
[01:30] <discombobulated> trojatra: edit, kubuntu system partition mounts, but not the others
[01:30] <unop> discombobulated, you don't happen to be in a live CD session do you?
[01:30] <discombobulated> unop: no, no cd is in the drive
[01:31] <Expl0ited> damn compiz always causes buku problems with everything.
[01:31] <unop> discombobulated, no errors while saving the file?
[01:31] <unop> discombobulated, maybe you should use a command line editor like nano to check
[01:31] <discombobulated> unop: none at all
[01:31] <Mirin> xubuntu seems to be good enough for my uses... actually, it's probably overkill still...
[01:31] <discombobulated> unop: ok, will try
[01:31] <Mirin> Thanks for the link
[01:32] <firefly2442> Can someone help me with wireless, I'm using rt2500usb module but cannot get an IP address
[01:32] <discombobulated> unop: worked just fine
[01:32] <tj1515> Miran: If that doesn't work out u could try puppy linux
[01:33] <Grenyaris> So, as much as I hate to admit it, I need help...
[01:33] <Grenyaris> I have a raid 5 setup with 3 disks, all the same make/model of disk
[01:33] <Mirin> Just out of curiosity, why aren't there links to the derivitave versions (xbuntu, edubuntu, etc...) from the main ubuntu site. I seem to recall that they used to do that...
[01:33] <Smor1> unop: When I go to the Hardware drivers menu it just says no restricted drivers and gives me no options to install one
[01:33] <AzizLight> I want to theme ubuntu, can somebody please explain me what is the difference between gtk2 metacity compiz gdm themes colour schemes etc.?
[01:33] <Grenyaris> I have /dev/md0 mounted to /mnt/raid
[01:33] <psyrixx> what what in the butt
[01:33] <discombobulated> my fstab has # /dev/sda3 commented and it's my root partition yet /dev/sda3 is really one of my windows partitions. wtf?
[01:33] <SNuxoll> AzizLight: GTK themes are your widget themes (buttons, etc)
[01:34] <Grenyaris> In gparted it has a warning about a bad superblock
[01:34] <SNuxoll> AzizLight: Metacity themes are your window decorations, GDM themes are login screen themes
[01:34] <Grenyaris> I run e2fsck and it finds all kinds of errors, fixes them, and the error won't go away
[01:34] <discombobulated> does anyone know wtf is going on with fstab? it's ridiculous
[01:35] <Grenyaris> I try the -b switch with no effect, just an error on the disk...
[01:35] <dxdemetriou> I don't know how to explain it.. I use: "sudo <command>", it shows the "#", it pressed an enter itself and I see another "#" on bottom
[01:35] <unop> discombobulated, puzzling. just how does the file change?
[01:35] <AdrianStrays> If I extact an ISO to a partition, and boot from that partition, will it act in the same fashion it would as if it were burned to a disk?
[01:35] <unop> dxdemetriou, meaning. it's waiting for you to enter a password probably.
[01:36] <Grenyaris> The interesting part is, with ext2 or ext3 formatting, I can read and write to the disk without problem...
[01:36] <Jordan_U> discombobulated: The fstab uses UUID's rather that /dev/[hd,sd]x now, that comment is probably from a previous release that was changed when you upgraded
[01:36] <Grenyaris> any ideas on how to clear the error?
[01:36] <discombobulated> unop: i don't know, it does it when it boots up
[01:36] <unop> Smor1, try using the envyng app to install the drivers perhaps.
[01:36] <unop> !envyng > Smor1
[01:36] <DesertPenquin> ?
[01:37] <discombobulated> there is no app at all that does what k/ubuntu does when you install it, such as see all drives and configure them automatically?
[01:37] <mizz_thickness> hey room
[01:37] <AzizLight> SNuxoll: ok thanks a lot
[01:37] <AdrianStrays> If I extact an ISO to a partition, and boot from that partition, will it act in the same fashion it would as if it were burned to a disk?
[01:37] <unop> discombobulated, sorry. i meant .. what changes are reverted, what doesn't stick?
[01:37] <mizz_thickness> ne black males in here?
[01:37] <unop> !ot | mizz_thickness
[01:37] <gradin> AdrianStrays: ... no
[01:38] <AdrianStrays> gradin: Why not?
[01:38] <cwill747> AdrianStrays: are you trying to install ubuntu without a disk?
[01:38] <gradin> AdrianStrays: cdfs and ntfs / ext3 boot diferances
[01:38] <discombobulated> unop: the root partition reverts back to "
[01:38] <AdrianStrays> No
[01:38] <discombobulated> # /dev/sda3
[01:38] <discombobulated> UUID=2f2cb2e1-b34f-4a96-8472-9c7e58a15733 /               ext3    relatime,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[01:38] <gradin> AdrianStrays: what are you trying to boot too?
[01:38] <discombobulated> sorry, didn't meant to past that much, was going to delete
[01:38] <tolis> unop: the file or directory must be in the filesystem on linux right?
[01:38] <unop> discombobulated, and what did you want it to stick at?
[01:39] <dxdemetriou> oh perfect.., I think is because of the fingerprint. if I swipe my finger it shows only one #. if I write the password it shows two #
[01:39] <unop> tolis, yes .. but if your windows partitions are detected by linux .. they can be mounted too
[01:39] <discombobulated> unop: i just wanted to delete that line because /dev/sda3 is my windows partition, not root partition like it's saying
[01:39] <AdrianStrays> gradin:  I'm attempting to boot something for my windows partition
[01:39] <itachi> i cannot install flash player..
[01:39] <unop> discombobulated, let's see the output of.  sudo fdisk -l
[01:39] <mizz_thickness> wat is this room
[01:39] <cwill747> itachi: what do you mean?
[01:40] <itachi> when i press enter twice it just cancel it
[01:40] <edugonch_> Hello, I want to install an email server so I can use the function mail of php(to make some proves in localhost), what server do you recommend to install thanks
[01:40] <mizz_thickness> wat kinda chat is this
[01:40] <AdrianStrays> gradin: can I do this?
[01:40] <BeAvEr> :) re
[01:40] <gradin> AdrianStrays: boot something for your windows partiton?
[01:40] <unop> mizz_thickness, this is the ubuntu support channel .. not a chat room
[01:40] <AdrianStrays> gradin: Yes, its a recovery program
[01:40] <gradin> AdrianStrays: if your trying to boot to whatever is on the cd you are going to have to burn the iso
[01:40] <itachi> cwill747, so what do i do
[01:41] <tolis> unop: why when i mkdir all of dir in busy?.....
[01:41] <tolis> \
[01:41] <AdrianStrays> gradin: I can't get any CD-Rs till Monday.  I rather find a way to do it now
[01:41] <tolis> is*
[01:41] <gradin> AdrianStrays: if your trying to install something from the cd in windows you want a virtual cdrom drive
[01:41] <unop> tolis, not sure ..
[01:41] <cwill747> !flash | itachi
[01:41] <discombobulated> unop: http://pastebin.com/d2634367b
[01:41] <AdrianStrays> gradin: I can't get into windows, its corrupted.
[01:42] <AdrianStrays> gradin: This is a recovery program, I need to boot FROM it.
[01:42] <gradin> then yeah your going to have to wait till you get iso's then
[01:42] <tolis> unop: what i can do now?
[01:42] <gradin> or rather cdrs
[01:42] <unop> discombobulated, sheesh .. on which partition(s) is ubuntu installed here?
[01:42] <AdrianStrays> gradin: why
[01:42] <discombobulated> unop: i have 4 disks and many partitions. a mess, i know
[01:42] <discombobulated> unop: sdd3

[01:43] <jscinoz> :(
[01:43] <itachi> cwill747, how do i install Multiverse
[01:43]  * jscinoz sighs
[01:43] <jscinoz> nvidia driver was causing it
[01:43] <jscinoz> unsurprisingly.
[01:43] <gradin> cdfs has a  boot sector that is different from ntfs or ext3's boot flag that marks the partition as bootable
[01:43] <gradin> AdrianStrays:
[01:43] <ashiswin> How do I partition my harddisk more than it is allowed?
[01:43] <itachi> !flash | jscinoz

[01:44] <cwill747> !multiverse | itachi
[01:44] <jscinoz> itachi, i wasnt asking about flash...
[01:44] <uyuyuyuuy> :) no lasg
[01:44] <discombobulated> unop: should i just reinstall and let kubuntu auto-configure it all?
[01:45] <ashiswin> How do I move my page file?
[01:45] <unop> discombobulated,  before you do. let's see the output of this.   which parted || sudo aptitude install parted; sudo parted -l
[01:46] <uyuyuyuuy> here to get new tips and trick ask pls me listen
[01:46] <tolis> unop: maybe a restart will help??

[01:48] <Use1> hi
[01:48] <Doctor_Nick> Hi, does anyone have any advice on a Draft-N pci adapter?
[01:48] <mcphail> pccc: you haven't made the hardlink properly or you aren't using emacs properly
[01:48] <Use1> damn there are so many people
[01:48] <Use1> wow
[01:48] <Doctor_Nick> that works with ubuntu out of the box?
[01:48] <Use1> okay
[01:48] <unop> discombobulated, hmm, very strange .. not sure what is going on here .. if i were you, i would install linux on a non-GPT disk (i.e. one of the others)
[01:49] <Amerikan> I can't figure out how to compile C++ programs with G++  :(

[01:49] <unop> discombobulated, err.    sudo file -s /dev/sda3
[01:49] <pccc> mcphail: echo "test" > file0 ; ln file0 hard_ln ; ln -s file0 soft_ln
[01:49] <Amerikan> It shows a bunch of odd characters
[01:49] <Doctor_Nick> odd characters?
[01:49] <pccc> mcphail: then i use emacs to edit file0 & ctrl-x-s to save
[01:49] <Eleaf> I have an acer aspire 5520 laptop, and I'm trying to get wireless working (either madwifi or ndiswrapper), but I don't have an ath0 device.  Am I supposed to manually add the ath0 device?
[01:49] <Sorlag> hi folks.. how do i execute programs without terminal?
[01:50] <Amerikan> Is there something different between windows and linux C++ syntax?
[01:50] <Eleaf> Sorlag: type alt + f2 and type the command
[01:50] <discombobulated> unop: /dev/sda3: x86 boot sector
[01:50] <Sorlag> Eleaf, thanks
[01:50] <Eleaf> Amerikan: c++ is c++, the windows or linux code might use different external libraries and such though.
[01:51] <unop> discombobulated, that's it?
[01:51] <Amerikan> Then I don't know what's wrong with what i'm trying. grr
[01:51] <uyuyuyuuy> cool alt-f2 :)
[01:51] <discombobulated> unop: yes, sudo file -s /dev/sda3 returned that
[01:51] <tolis> oo not again....:) resource busy again...:(
[01:52] <Amerikan> Eleaf, are you still able to use the namespace std in linux?
[01:52] <unop> discombobulated, i'm out of ideas
[01:53] <discombobulated> unop: sudo file -s /dev/sdd3 returns "Linux rev 1.0 ext3 filesystem data (needs journal recovery) (large files)'
[01:53] <Eleaf> Amerikan: not sure, I'm not much into c++ myself

[02:11] <itachi> Pici: cuz i need flash player on my ubuntu
[02:11] <Amerikan> What are some basic things to do to pimp out ubuntu?
[02:11] <mcphail> itachi: itachi why not download the ubuntu dvd? Far more software on that than the cd
[02:12] <qr> Amerikan: that really depends on what you mean by pimp out
[02:12] <Strife89> Amerikan: Look for themes. :)
[02:12] <Amerikan> gr: when I install windows, I automatically set all my prefrences the way I like, and download a selected amount of software I want, I want to know what ubuntu users do
[02:12] <Strife89> !MIDI
[02:12] <carandraug> Amerikan: look on ccsm for 3d effects, gnome-look for themes and ubuntuTweak for extras
[02:12] <itachi> mcphail: what r u talking... u think i should fdownload ubuntu dvd?
[02:13] <[SATAS]> any one know where to get mootools help
[02:13] <mcphail> itachi: it would give you a lot of software to install without having to download from the web...
[02:13] <timboy> uyuyuyuuy, did that and it is enabled any other ideas?
[02:14] <itachi> mcphail: where can i download it
[02:14] <timboy> I am helping a fried get their video setting working nvidia 7900 card just can't get the drivers working... we're running hardy heron and tried downloading the drivers and installing them manually but no go in the driver manager it says it's set up...
[02:14] <mcphail> itachi: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/release/
[02:14] <itachi> mcphail: btw any gud games for ubuntt?
[02:15] <mcphail> itachi: actually, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/8.04.1/release/
[02:15] <timboy> itachi, open arena
[02:15] <Amerikan> Strife89: I found a theme, how do I install it?
[02:15] <badger_> tetuhi
[02:16] <itachi> mcphail: i have it dont like it that much... that aplication/software is 3.7g!!!
[02:16] <dexter> root@roshan-desktop:~# grep Codec /proc/asound/card0/codec#*
[02:16] <dexter> Codec: SigmaTel STAC9221 A1
[02:16] <dexter>     does this mean that i have this driver nd its working
[02:16] <mcphail> itachi: most of the better games are Quake clones which require network play. Not much use if you don't have a connection
[02:16] <Strife89> Amerikan: It should be a .tar or a .bz2. On the menu, click on System/Preferences/Appearence.
[02:16] <itachi> mcphail: ok
[02:16] <carandraug> itachi: if you like classics, try Maelstrom, metalblob solid and frozen bubble
[02:16] <Amerikan> Okay, I just shouldn't have extracted it. Thanks Strife89
[02:17] <WDC> Hey hey! I am trying to get my Sony Vaio built-in microphone. Is there a way to configure it?
[02:17] <itachi> mcphail: should i download that big program
[02:17] <itachi> mcphail: dvdubuntu
[02:17] <itachi> mcphail: is like 3.7g
[02:17] <mcphail> itachi: it will give you a lot of software to play with. Depends on whether you view 3.7gig as a large d/l
[02:18] <dexter>     does this mean that i have this driver nd its working
[02:18] <dexter> root@roshan-desktop:~# grep Codec /proc/asound/card0/codec#*
[02:18] <dexter> Codec: SigmaTel STAC9221 A1
[02:18] <Unt182> THERE IS SOME ITALIAN HERE?
[02:18] <mcphail> itachi: you originally asked about where to get software...
[02:18] <WDC> Anyone help me with my microphone?
[02:18] <carandraug> !it | Unt182
[02:18] <itachi> mcphail: well i only got a flash driver that is 2g.. so where will i put it
[02:18] <WDC> Unt182: #ubuntu-it
[02:19] <Unt182> thanks wdc
[02:19] <WDC> np
[02:19] <mcphail> itachi: it is a dvd image. You need to burn it to dvd
[02:20] <brenden> fyi ubuntu sucks
[02:20] <WDC> ANYONE know how to configure microphones for Ubuntu?
[02:20] <brenden> yw
[02:20] <carandraug> itachi: I think you're supposed to burn it to a DVD on that computer. There's software to split it in pieces and put it together in other place if that computer lacks a DVD burner
[02:20] <itachi> mcphail: well thats another problem my computer dont reads dvd....
[02:21] <mcphail> itachi: that _is_ a problem! :)
[02:21] <timboy> I am helping a fried get their video setting working nvidia 7900 card just can't get the drivers working... we're running hardy heron and tried downloading the drivers and installing them manually but no go in the driver manager it says it's set up...
[02:21] <itachi> mcphail: yep
[02:22] <usser> timboy, did u also uninstall ubuntu's build it in driver and blacklisted the nvidia module?
[02:22] <Swan_> I practically just installed Ubuntu after a long and painful experience with Windows Vista >_>
[02:23] <carandraug> Swan_: congratulations. Hope you enjoy things with Ubuntu
[02:23] <bj_> any super wizes in here when it comes to ati cards with ubuntu
[02:23] <timboy> usser, how do I do that?
[02:23] <Swan_> I've used Linux a lot before, Ubuntu is a good distribution.
[02:23] <hitmanWilly> depends on what you want I guess
[02:23] <usser> timboy, if u're installing them manually, sudo dpkg --purge nvidia-glx-new
[02:24] <scubasteve> i need some help, i installed ubuntu through WUBI on my xp and would like to get rid of the boot menu that comes up when i start up my computer
[02:24] <Swan_> Scubasteve
[02:24] <Swan_> Do you mean make it hidden?
[02:24] <scubasteve> ya
[02:24] <Swan_> As in, automatically boot Ubuntu?
[02:24] <bj_> well, with my ati card, when i try svideo with my tv, when i start a video its just black
[02:24] <scubasteve> well, XP actually
[02:24] <Swan_> open the terminal, type in "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[02:24] <scubasteve> cuz its a family computer
[02:25] <Swan_> in that file
[02:25] <timboy> usser, did that.
[02:25] <Swan_> find the line that says "timeout 3"
[02:25] <Swan_> or something similar
[02:25] <usser> timboy, check this out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[02:25] <dizzyd87> hey everyone
[02:25] <pookmu> how do I sync /etc/passwd and /etc/group?
[02:25] <Swan_> set the timeout to 0
[02:25] <scubasteve> i did that, i changed it to 1
[02:25] <bj_> scubasteve - you can use startup manager
[02:25] <scubasteve> i did startupmanager
[02:25] <scubasteve> the problem is
[02:26] <usser> timboy, right also add nvidia_new to this file gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[02:26] <scubasteve> the thing to choose the OS
[02:26] <Swan_> GRUB
[02:26] <usser> timboy, thats the command u can use to edit it
[02:26] <Strife89> !MIDI's answer wasn't quite what I needed.
[02:26] <Swan_> That would be the bootloader, steve.
[02:26] <scubasteve> it stays up there for 15 seconds
[02:26] <scubasteve> well
[02:26] <bj_> change the time in start up manager
[02:26] <scubasteve> what should i do
[02:26] <dizzyd87> !windows
[02:26] <carandraug> scubasteve: Open /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:27] <Strife89> Anyone else have an idea?
[02:27] <Swan_> I just have a three second timeout. look around in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:27] <timboy> usser, thx will try it
[02:27] <scubasteve> i know
[02:27] <scubasteve> i have set it to 1
[02:27] <bj_> and?
[02:27] <Swan_> Interesting, and you say it delays for 15 seconds?
[02:27] <scubasteve> ya
[02:27] <bj_> try more than 1
[02:27] <bj_> try 3
[02:27] <carandraug> scubasteve: you mean you wanna change Windows bootloader? I think that's the one that appears when you use Wubi
[02:28] <scubasteve> oic
[02:28] <Swan_> Ah.
[02:28] <scubasteve> well then
[02:28] <Swan_> I haven't done an install from Windows ^_^
[02:28] <scubasteve> how would i change that
[02:28] <Swan_> I just reinstall GRUB if it gets overwritten.
[02:28] <gandalfcome> If I share folders with samba under hardy, how can I change so it can be viewed with guest access
[02:28] <Swan_> There are programs which can edit the Windows bootloader.
[02:28] <scubasteve> should i go and ask google
[02:28] <kindofabuzz> suber grub disck!
[02:28] <bj_> startup manager does a good job
[02:28] <Swan_> What version of Windows? XP?
[02:28] <kindofabuzz> super
[02:29] <scubasteve> its SP2
[02:29] <carandraug> scubasteve: sorry. I think most of us here can't change it. But take a look at boot.ini I think that's the file. No idea if it's an edit and configurable file like the ones used in Linux but you can give it a try
[02:29] <WDC> Hey, I need to get my built in microphone working. How can I do that
[02:29] <scubasteve> ok will do
[02:29] <Swan_> http://vlaurie.com/computers2/Articles/bootini.htm
[02:29] <Swan_> try that
[02:29] <itachi> iFlash | itachi
[02:30] <usser> gandalfcome, add this to /etc/samba/smb.conf into the share definition  guest ok = yes
[02:30] <scubasteve> that seems like it should be right
[02:30] <scubasteve> ill brb
[02:30] <bj_> well, with my ati card, when i try svideo with my tv and try to watch a video of some sort, it just shows black
[02:30] <usser> gandalfcome, http://www.oregontechsupport.com/samba/samba-config.php here look at the [public] section this is pretty much what u looking for
[02:30] <bj_> any ideas
[02:30] <corigo> How can I run a Hard disk check and repair from the live cd?
[02:31] <carandraug> corigo: you mean badblocks?
[02:31] <corigo> yes
[02:31] <gandalfcome> usser: thanks another question, when I share with right click share on a folder, there is no corresponding entry in smb.conf, where is the share listed?
[02:31] <carandraug> corigo: I believe it's already installed. Just run it from the terminal badblocks -v /path_to_device
[02:32] <carandraug> corigo: to find /path_to_device , run "sudo fdisk -l"
[02:33] <Swan_> Is there an xchat plugin for firefox?
[02:33] <usser> gandalfcome, im sorry to say that i have no idea i've never done it this way
[02:33] <dizzyd87> bj_, i have the same issue as you and i don't think there's a fix for that yet
[02:34] <bj_> dizzyd87 have you tried quite a few drivers and such?
[02:34] <qr> Swan_: there's chatzilla, which is an IRC plugin for firefox.  Although there's no xchat plugin afaik.
[02:34] <gandalfcome> usser: thanks
[02:34] <usser> gandalfcome, seeing how it doesnt ask for administrative permissions while sharing i'd say somewhere in your home folder
[02:34] <Swan_> Okay, thanks.
[02:34] <dizzyd87> bj_. so far only flgrx and a few proprietary but nothing yet :(
[02:35] <bj_> dizzyd87 have you managed to get any picture through to the tv? like the desktop or anything?
[02:36] <dizzyd87> bj_, i'm on a thinkpad r40 , I tried and tried and tried asked around here countless times searched google for many many hours but no one has seemed to come up with s-video support
[02:36] <WDC> Okay. How can see I what my microphone's model is?
[02:36] <swamptin> Can't seem to find libmp3lame.so.0 Any ideas where synaptic may have stored it?
[02:37] <kindofabuzz> swamptin, whereis  libmp3lame.so
[02:38] <swamptin> kindofabuzz: now, see.... I feel like a twat. :) thanks.
[02:38] <bj_> dizzyd87 im on a latitude d810, iv played around with lots of things and different setups, some have lost all use of my desktop, tried envyng, i am not great with the terminal , so it may be me.  I can get my desktop to the tv but a video turns it blac
[02:39] <WDC> Hello?!? How can I see what is installed on my computer? Hardware wise?
[02:39] <rsk> WDC lspci
[02:39] <carandraug> WDC: you can run lshw
[02:39] <rsk> and to see the cpu run cat /proc/cpuinfo
[02:39] <dizzyd87> bj_, i know on windows for s-video if you're doing a fullscreen movie you have to specifically set the s-video port to be the main video outlet
[02:39] <rsk> and memory cat /proc/meminfo
[02:40] <WDC> rsk: awesome thanks.
[02:40] <WDC> carandraug: Let's see what your command does.
[02:40] <carandraug> WDC: a big list of everything. lshw=list hardware
[02:41] <carandraug> WDC: while lspci=list pci
[02:41] <histo> carandraug: and lshw -C html
[02:42] <WDC> carandraug: Cool thanks. Now, what most likely would my microphone be under?
[02:42] <histo> WDC: if its plugged in to your sound card it wont' be there. IF its usb you can lsusb
[02:42] <WDC> histo: It's a laptop, so built it
[02:42] <WDC> histo: Built in*
[02:43] <carandraug> WDC: no idea. Never had one. But there was a nice GUI for that command, tree like, which would help you find it
[02:43] <WDC> carandraug: and that command is?
[02:43] <dexter> hey...can anyone help me....i went to system-->pref--->sound..i selected alsa sound drivers for all options nd tested it...i get beep sounds from my speakers, but i dont get sounds wen i play movies
[02:43] <histo> WDC: its probably just mic'd off the sound card it should just work. You just need to unmute it.
[02:44] <sam_d> WDC, under alsa, input source, my built in mic appears as front mic
[02:44] <Expl0ited> lol
[02:44] <Strife89> !MIDI
[02:44] <histo> !codec | dexter
[02:44] <WDC> histo: hmmm. I did that, and Audacity doesn't repsond
[02:44] <histo> WDC: well see if anything is listed under lsusb
[02:44] <carandraug> WDC: it's not installed by default. I used to have it but no longer. I'll see if I can find it
[02:44] <dexter> hist; SigmaTel STAC9221 A1
[02:44] <WDC> carandraug: cool thanks
[02:44] <WDC> histo: Let me see
[02:44] <histo> WDC: and mic is muted by default in ubuntu
[02:44] <Strife89> !help
[02:44] <dexter> histo; SigmaTel STAC9221 A1
[02:45] <Strife89> !question
[02:45] <histo> dexter: check out the message from ubottu about codec
[02:45] <histo> Strife89: what do you need?
[02:45] <WDC> histo: All I see is this: Bus 006 Device 002: ID 05ca:1839 Ricoh Co., Ltd
[02:45] <Strife89> Histo: Well, I'm trying to get Audacity to produce sound when I try to play MIDIs.
[02:46] <histo> !sound > WDC
[02:46] <dexter> histo; ya i'll try....i m trying getting my sound over a month..i used even sound troubleshooting...but then i got stuck somewhere...
[02:46] <TwoD> I need help with an extremely weird situation! In nearly every folder on my ntfs disks there are now .exe files with the name of the folder. All are 41.7KB in size!
[02:46] <histo> !midi > Strife89
[02:46] <Strife89> I have Timidity installed already. Is it possibly to assign the patchset to Audacity?
[02:46] <histo> TwoD: okay how did they get there?
[02:47] <WDC> histo: Where is Volume Control?
[02:47] <histo> Strife89: that i'm not sure of possibly audacity support might help
[02:47] <sam_d> WDC, double click the small speaker un the notification area, then click on edit>preferences, and check mark input source and capture, then new tabs will apear, click on the "options" tab, and select your front mic as input, then select the "recording" tab and unmute capture and turn the input source all the way up
[02:47] <oggu> Are there any american page to compare cell phone privider costs?
[02:47] <Strife89> histo: Unfortunately I already followed the instructions there and they did not accomplish what I wanted.
[02:47] <ASrock> is there an AMD irc channel anywhere?
[02:47] <TwoD> histo, I have no idea... I just noticed it after trying Glest.
[02:47] <histo> WDC: by the clock .
[02:47] <histo> WDC: or you can alsamixer
[02:48] <WDC> histo: got it thanks
[02:48] <Billllll> GOD!
[02:48] <histo> TwoD: sounds like some kind of worm
[02:48] <histo> TwoD: clickme.exe
[02:49] <willfrand> hey
[02:49] <TwoD> histo, thanks got more info?
[02:49] <histo> it
[02:49] <histo> TwoD: hold up
[02:50] <histo> TwoD: do you hav ea virus scanner?
[02:50] <carandraug> WDC: looks like it's called lshw-gtk , instead you can put everything into an html file and open it with firefox/browser_of_choice .The command is sudo lshw -html > lshw.html This file appear into your home folder
[02:50] <TwoD> histo, nope, never needed one until now.
[02:50] <sam_d> TwoD if ur under ubuntu, install ClamAV
[02:50] <Strife89> histo: My thoughts are that I could point Audacity to the patchset that I got with Timidity, or point it to the "server" that I set up Timidity as (per Wiki instructions) but I'm not sure how I would accomplish either.
[02:50] <sam_d> twod its under synaptid
[02:50] <sam_d> synaptic
[02:51] <histo> TwoD: never needed one on windows lol
[02:51] <TwoD> sam_d, doing it now
[02:51] <histo> Strife89: I have no idea you'd have to ask the audacity people
[02:51] <histo> sam_d: he needs to scan his ntfs drive
[02:51] <WDC> histo: Everything is maxxed, not muted and NOTHING (from the mics is coming in)
[02:51] <willwill> hello, I got PANIC: Circular Dependancy when I start my computer again after upgrade my kernel to -21
[02:51] <Strife89> histo: They're pretty quiet tonight.
[02:51] <sam_d> histo, yeah, but he can do it with clam av, as far as i know
[02:52] <Strife89> histo: The channel's rather empty.
[02:52] <carandraug> TwoD: instead of downloading an antivirus, if it's just to check it's one, you can go to kapersky site and scan the file there with online tools
[02:52] <sam_d> willwill, does the old kernel still appear on your grub menu?
[02:52] <willwill> sam_d, yes, but the old kernels also have this problem too
[02:52] <WDC> carandraug: hmmm. Still can't get ANYTHING to come up from my mic
[02:52] <histo> TwoD: sounds like the folder.exe virus.
[02:52] <b_> how do i use the commands pwck and grpck?
[02:53] <histo> TwoD: you can also install a virus scanner in ubuntu and scan the ntfs drive
[02:53] <histo> !virus | TwoD
[02:53] <TwoD> histo, doing that now
[02:53] <sam_d> histo thats what clamav does,
[02:53] <dr_Willis> TwoD,  clamav is handy, and has a front end or 2 you can use..
[02:53] <carandraug> WDC: I never had a microphone. I was just helping you in showing all your hardware
[02:53] <histo> sam_d: Yeah I know
[02:53] <danand> TwoD - clamav
[02:53] <WDC> carandraug: Hmm mthanks
[02:53] <histo> TwoD: apt-cache search clamav
[02:53] <cwill747> b_, use man pwck and man grpck to see how to use these commands
[02:54] <histo> TwoD: and like others have suggested you may want to get a frontend
[02:54] <TwoD> histo, danand , dr_Willis I am already installing it now hehe
[02:54] <itachi> after reinstalling driver
[02:54] <itachi> what now
[02:54] <WDC> Here's my problem.
[02:54] <WDC> When Audacity is set to ALSA, and I record it says this: Error while opening sound device. Please check the input device settings and the project sample rate.
[02:54] <b_> casper - the ubuntu livecd scripts are very picky about creating the livecd user. If you have issues, please run pwck and grpck as root to fix /etc/passwd and /etc/group. These have to be in sync in order for casper to create the livecd/dvd user.
[02:54] <cwill747> itachi: are you still having flash problems? (i've been gone for a bit)
[02:54] <sam_d> WDC you followed my instructions avobe? thats how i got mine working
[02:54] <M1DLG> Hi all, is there anyway of using my netMD minidisk through linux? IE to rip my music off it and go modern?
[02:55] <sam_d> WDC does the mic works w other software?
[02:55] <itachi> cwill747: yeah.... -.-
[02:55] <cwill747> itachi: what are your problems now?
[02:55] <ldiamond> Can any1 tell me why I can't ping my other computer from my ubuntu machine using the computer's name? (I can when I'm directly plugged onto it, but not when I'm through a router, I have to use IP then)
[02:55] <WDC> sam_d: In WIndows, yes lol. Let me try you instructions, didn't see it
[02:56] <sam_d> ldiamond, try "ping <serv name>
[02:56] <salaz> how to quote a name?
[02:56] <histo> salaz: What do you mean?
[02:56] <histo> salaz: stuff with spaces?
[02:56] <salaz> ha like u do
[02:56] <itachi> cwill747: when i click enter twice from terminal it just cancel it it doen't install
[02:57] <ldiamond> sam_d, thats what I'm trying to do. It only works with the IP, not the computer name
[02:57] <carandraug> salaz: what IRC client do you use?
[02:57] <M1DLG> anyone know how I can rip my music back off a minidisk using linux?
[02:57] <cwill747> itachi: do you put in the password?
[02:57] <salaz> xchat
[02:57] <WDC> sam_d: Audacity says: Error while opening sound device. Please check the input device settings and the project sample rate.
[02:57] <itachi> cwill747: doen't ask for password
[02:57] <carandraug> salaz: put the first letters and then press tab
[02:57] <danand> ldiamond - /etc/resolv.conf
[02:57] <cwill747> itachi: are you using sudo apt-get install flashsomethingorrather
[02:58] <salaz> owh okk
[02:58] <salaz> carandraug: tq ;-)
[02:58] <WDC> sam_d: Eh?
[02:58] <carandraug> salaz: you can also change the punctuation. An ":" instead of a "," for example. Go to preferences and look for "input box"
[02:59] <itachi> cwill747: listen i just etracted flash player 10... then it says if i want to run it with terminal nd twhen i run it it says to install press enter i press it nd then it says note close all browse nd then i press enter again nd it cancel
[02:59] <sam_d> WDC if you already did my instructions no problem, open auditacy , then edit>preferences, AUDIO I/O and change the input source to alsa mic
[02:59] <histo> M1DLG: minicds?
[02:59] <sam_d> WDC or alsa:default
[02:59] <cwill747> itachi: please put the output in the pastebin and post the link
[02:59] <WDC> sam_d: That's my problem. When I select alsa:default it says: Error while opening sound device. Please check the input device settings and the project sample rate.
[02:59] <salaz> i've been using ubuntu for 6 month and i've formatted my windows..it seems no prob at all n i love using ubuntu..before this i use opensuse
[03:00] <salaz> carandraug: ok
[03:00] <itachi> cwill747: wat r u talking bout
[03:00] <monostone> ok, i want to setup a pptpd server on my ubuntu box, to create remote access VPN so I can, running xp on virtualbox, give remote desktop support to a winxp machine. The  remote computer is running on radio wireless internet, so i can't do a rdesktop direct connect, since the ISP has the needed ports blocked. I must tunnel through a VPN. I have the pptpd server running and configured, i have xp in VirtualBox up and running and conn
[03:00] <monostone> ected to the internet, but dont know why the connections to the VPN server are being refused, Im doing local tests. Any ideas?
[03:00] <ldiamond> danand, what am I looking for there?
[03:00] <histo> M1DLG: why are you still using minidisc?
[03:00] <cwill747> copy and paste what is showing up in the terminal to the pastebin
[03:00] <cwill747> !pastebin | itachi
[03:00] <sam_d> WDC when you open alsa config (the small speaker) did you selected input source as "front mic"?
[03:01] <WDC> sam_d: Let me lake sure
[03:01] <WDC> sam_d: make*
[03:01] <dexter> histo; i have some ibm softwares like db2...i m not able 2 install them..can u help me
[03:01] <salaz> monostone: maybe do the port forwarding? huhu
[03:01] <histo> dexter: Have no idea what you are talking about.
[03:01] <WDC> sam_d: Yah all three "inputs" are front mic
[03:01] <WDC> sam_d: And everything is unmuted and maxxed
[03:02] <dexter> histo; okk thanq
[03:02] <sam_d> WDC can you make sure the mic is working good with other software such as the default audio recorder (applications>sound and vidio>audio recorder)
[03:02] <histo> dexter: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/db2cert
[03:02] <histo> dexter: http://www.ubuntu.com/partners/ibm/db2
[03:02] <histo> dexter: google is your friend
[03:02] <danand> ldiamond - unless you have a dns server for your network, /etc/resolv.conf should hold the ip's and names of the relevant machines corresponding to that ip...
[03:02] <itachi> cwill747: http://paste.ubuntu.com/40058/plain/
[03:02] <dexter> histo; yup..u r right...but not always....
[03:03] <histo> danand: wouldn't a wins server accomplish what he wants.
[03:03] <WDC> sam_d: Damnit. No
[03:03] <salaz> can u all recommend me other video editing tools besides kino?
[03:03] <sam_d> WDC dosnt work, or you cant check/
[03:03] <cwill747> itachi: no i mean copy and paste your actual terminal window, like where you typed in the stuff to install flash

[03:06] <salaz> pajamian: something like u-lead video editing..
[03:06] <danand> histo - err ... not sure ... he should be able to add the relevant entries for his machines in /etc/resolv.conf (to point to his local dns server) or in /etc/hosts (mapping of ip and hostnames
[03:06] <pajamian> salaz: I don't know what that is.
[03:06] <erpo> Which program should I use for desktop widgets? I'm running Gnome.
[03:06] <itachi> cwill747: i havnt try it
[03:06] <itachi> cwill747: it just ask for flash...
[03:06] <salaz> pajamian: ok..other than kino?what do you recommend>
[03:06] <sam_d> open video editor? its under synaptic i think
[03:06] <oklinux> any one run testgen ?
open video editor? its under synaptic i think
[03:07] <salaz> sam_d: yes..the name?
[03:07] <cwill747> itachi, go to your ubuntu, go to system -> administration -> synaptic package manager, and search for flashplugin
[03:07] <pajamian> salaz: well, for authoring I like devede, but I haven't found a great editor yet.
[03:07] <histo> danand: no WINS server via samba to take care of the pinging by hostname. it would be just like on a windows network no?
[03:07] <itachi> cwill747: after that what
[03:07] <cwill747> itachi: check the checkbox next to the name, and "mark it for installation". Then click apply at the top
[03:07] <salaz> pajamian: devede..okeh
[03:07] <danand> ldiamond - look at /etc/hosts if you don't have a dns server for your network
[03:07] <erpo> salaz: Kino isn't awful.
[03:07] <histo> danand: neways I could be wrong but I have to go.
[03:08] <cwill747> itachi: it should then install flash, and anything else you need
[03:08] <sam_d> salaz $sudo apt-get install openmovieeditor
[03:08] <salaz> erpo: yeah..gotta to try others too
[03:08] <danand> histo - not sure ... never used a wins server???
[03:08] <itachi> cwill747: that flash is for browser
[03:08] <ldiamond> danand, I was just thinking, it works on windows... how come?
[03:08] <salaz> sam_d: ok thanx
[03:08] <itachi> cwill747: i need flash player like for the all computer
[03:08] <roldyx> hello.. by default.. are there some irc client?
[03:08] <salaz> pajamian: have u used avidemux?
[03:09] <pajamian> salaz: nope
[03:09] <sam_d> roldyx nope, but xchat is kool
[03:09] <ldiamond> danand, nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:09] <salaz> pajamian: okeh
[03:09] <sam_d> roldyx you can install it with synaptid
[03:09] <roldyx> oks
[03:10] <danand> ldiamond - is that from /etc/resolv.conf?
[03:10] <itachi> cwill747: that flash is for browser
[03:10] <itachi> cwill747: i need flash player like for the all computer
[03:10] <cwill747> itachi: that's what flash is?
[03:10] <axenory> !clone
[03:11] <itachi> cwill747: ha ok i'll try to install it from ther
[03:11] <cwill747> itachi: yep, go for it
[03:11] <ldiamond> danand no, thats from hosts
[03:11] <cwill747> itachi: or type in sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[03:11] <cwill747> itachi: whatever is easier for you
[03:11] <itachi> cwill747: ok i'll try brb
[03:12] <ldiamond> I guess ill try to activate NetBios on my router, see what happens
[03:12] <TwoD> Gha! What is wrong with the gui window of ClamTK? It keeps jumping around on both my monitors and refuses to stay where I put it :(
[03:13] <danand> ldiamond - hmmm .... thats a bit odd... /etc/resolv.conf should be the place for that type of entry. Do you have the name of your local machine in /etc/hosts ie <IP_ADDRESS> machine.name??
[03:13]  * ASUS-tek does any buddy know how to install spypee on 64 bit ubuntu 8.04
[03:14] <TheMaxzilla> ASUS-tek. Is it an application? If so, sudo apt-get install sypee
[03:14] <TheMaxzilla> *spyee
[03:14] <TheMaxzilla> *spypee
[03:14] <ldiamond> danand, yes, and sorry, that other one was from resolv.conf, I had 2 outputs next to each other.
[03:14] <cwill747> !info spypee
[03:14] <ASUS-tek> okey TheMaxzilla
[03:15] <TheMaxzilla> heh, nope. How about... Go to their site and download it for Linux / *UNIX, and read the Readme.txt
[03:15] <ldiamond> <IP_ADDRESS> ldiamond-usb-ubuntu.diamond
[03:15] <ASUS-tek> can't find package dude TheMaxzilla
[03:15] <TheMaxzilla> ^^^Read my other post.

[03:17] <mikeb55> Anyone know regex off hand, how would I match in [0-9] in between / /  so like:  "/345345354/"
[03:17] <salaz> heloo...what hacking application/software for ubuntu hardy?
[03:17] <ASUS-tek> ya what should I do cwill747 and TheMaxzilla
[03:17] <TheMaxzilla> Go to their site and download it for Linux / *UNIX
[03:17] <cwill747> ASUS-tek: where does this application exist?
[03:17] <danand> ldiamond - it would seem that your dns server on your router does not know about names and ip addresses of your machines. For a small network, adding an entry in /etc/hosts is perfectly acceptable ie <IP_ADDRESS> homepc-01 in /etc/hosts should allow you to ping <IP_ADDRESS> with the command ping homepc-01
[03:17] <Dr_willis> salaz,  the term 'hacking' is rather vague and often missused.
[03:17] <TheMaxzilla> salaz: That all depends on what you want to hack. ;-)
[03:18] <ASUS-tek> I don't know cwill7
[03:18] <andresj> is there a way to provide a user with add/remove/change users capability, without giving it access to root?
[03:18] <cwill747> ASUS-tek: why are you trying to install it?
[03:18] <salaz> on LAN structure only..i want to test the security of my phpBB
[03:18] <Dr_willis> andresj,  with sudo you can set up specific commands a user can use.
[03:18] <ASUS-tek> I wanna use skype on my ubuntu
[03:19] <andresj> Dr_willis: yes, but how about the Users Settings visual configuration?

[03:20] <ldiamond> danand, the thing is that it works under windows... there must be something I can fix to make it work under linux.
[03:20] <Kcaj> It is unrelated to Ubuntu, or I would ;) lol I didn't really think there would be too many other IRC places to find knowledgable individuals in real-time, though.

[03:21] <salaz> owh.... ;-(
[03:21] <danand> ldiamond - ?? not sure why it would work on windows.... like i said adding the relevant name and ip address in /etc/hosts should allow you to ping machine_name under a GNU/Linux system...
[03:22] <BeepII> OK, I'm trying to back up some CDs in case they break or something (it's happened to me... not pretty)
[03:22] <usser> ldiamond, yea sure install winbind
[03:22] <BeepII> Is there a way to just copy the .iso?
[03:22] <carandraug> salaz: I've heard about a distro only for that kind of stuff. I believe it's called infiltrator
[03:22] <ldiamond> usser winbind?
[03:22] <BeepII> and burn it to a CD?
[03:22] <danand> !info winbind
[03:22] <salaz> carandraug: is it can be used on ubuntu?
[03:23] <usser> ldiamond, u want to ping windows machines right?
[03:23] <carandraug> BeepII: just right click in the iso and select burn to disc
[03:23] <usser> ldiamond, by name
[03:23] <TheMaxzilla> salaz: take ubottu's suggestion and look at https://help.ubuntu.com/ and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/ . Also, try google it, I'm sure there's others have had that too.
[03:23] <ldiamond> usser, yes
[03:23] <BeepII> is there a way to get the .iso from a disk?
[03:23] <mike4263> hey, how do mount loopback filesystems (these are wubi virtual images)
[03:23] <salaz> TheMaxzilla: okeh
[03:24] <carandraug> salaz: it's a distro, not an application. Runs in a LiveCD and already has most applications you need for that kind of "jobs"
[03:24] <MidgetSpy> hey guys, I've got an ext3 filesystem on a RAID array which I just grew in capacity. I need to expand the partition and filesystem (as I understand it, at least) but I need to unmount it first. When I try sudo umount /myfolder it says "device is busy". Is this a problem or can I just force it to unmount?
[03:24] <usser> ldiamond, so just install it and modify your hosts line int /etc/nsswitch.conf to read something like this "'hosts:          files wins mdns4_minimal dns mdns4" just add wins after files
[03:24] <salaz> carandraug: owh..ok then..tq ;-)
[03:24] <ldiamond> Ok, now thats a bigger problem, I'm not even able to ping myself by name...!
[03:24] <djhash> Beepll: are you trying to make an image of a CD into a file?

[03:26] <casao> just worth a mention

[03:26] <red_zep> Can anyone help me get my wireless driver back?
[03:26] <slammed87d21> how do i set it up on ubuntu?
[03:26] <hwilde_> red_zep, where'd you put it
[03:26] <cwill747> hahaha
[03:26] <red_zep> i believe the bit bucket
[03:26] <red_zep> I was trying to update the driver and ran ./remove_old
[03:26] <slammed87d21> how do i set it up on ubuntu?
[03:26] <mike4263> to mount a loopback image, its just 'mount -t loop <image> <mnt point?'... right?
[03:27] <casao> slammed87d21: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/1848
[03:27] <hwilde_> slammed87d21, did you even look under the keyboard options
[03:27] <cwill747> slammed87d21: system - > preferences - > keyboard

[03:27] <willwill> I got PANIC: Circular Dependancy when I start my computer again after upgrade my kernel to -21

[03:28] <WDC> Okay, I need help getting XP to work on Virtual Box. http://pastebin.ca/1182891 I keep getting that, but have installed tons of packages from Synaptic. Any help?
[03:28] <Odd-rationale> slammed87d21: or you can set it at a deeper level like X. Here's a snippet from my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file : http://pastebin.com/m1db23045
[03:28] <casao> WDC: don't grab synaptic, goto the website and get the real version

[03:29] <BeepII> said it copied 0 bytes
[03:29] <casao> WDC: the synaptic version is crap, get the real version from the website
[03:29] <ldiamond> usser, I've done that, still no response4
[03:29] <WDC> casao: What is the difference?
[03:29] <pajamian> BeepII: is this a music CD or a data CD?
[03:30] <edju> Streaming radio of WTOP, DC news radio, says it supports "PC, MAC and Linux users!  Please make sure that you have the latest Windows Media Player.  Computer safe!"   Aaaargh!!
[03:30] <BeepII> music
[03:30] <casao> WDC: the real version isn't open source, it's pre-compiled and it's distributed in a .deb that sets everything up, instead of making you guess at modules
[03:30] <sabrina__> org
[03:30] <pajamian> BeepII: that doesn't work with music CDs.  I'm not sure how you can make an iso of them.   I got a problem where when I try to add something to the session prefs menu i get an error: The startup command cannot be empty

[03:34] <tenbytes> oh
[03:34] <slammed87d21> so how do i set up the keyboard?
[03:34] <tenbytes> when i close firefox it works
[03:34] <tenbytes> ;d
[03:35] <WDC> `brooks: Why do you ask that? WTF
[03:35] <tina> I tried to download limewire but it did not work
[03:35] <chronographer> opensolaris may be good for servers, but it is like Linux a few years ago afaik on the desktop
[03:35] <slammed87d21> so how do i set up the keyboard for the dvorak setup?
[03:35] <`brooks> i've always wanted to try Solaris.  i just looked at opensolaris.com. and saw a post "OpenSolaris is what Ubuntu wants to be when it grows up."
[03:35] <hwilde_> chronographer,  opensolaris is gnome desktop.
[03:35] <WDC> `brooks: and you ask in #ubuntu why?
[03:36] <`brooks> ... is there a reason i shouldn't have?
[03:36] <tina> is there a p2p file sharing program for ubuntu i can use
[03:36] <Doctor_Nick> I
[03:36] <trojatra> OpenSolaris is very nice, except it had some MAJOR package/repo issues when I last used it.

[03:37] <pkundu> i was looking for something like http://www.java2s.com/Code/Python/CatalogPython.htm

[03:39] <carandraug> pajamian: yes. I'm portugues as well ;)
[03:39] <pajamian> carandraug: it looked like spanish to me, but they do look similar when you don't know either.
[03:40] <Trinithis> how safe is ubuntu' ntfs support?
[03:40] <chronographer> Trinithis: i have used it a bit and tis never caused probs
[03:40] <Trinithis> cool
[03:40] <KennedyNoia> guys, i have a problem whit ubuntu, when boot whith liveCD it not stark on my notebook, erro and go to INITRAMFS
[03:41] <carandraug> pajamian: you're right. For one reason we're neighbors. Portuguese and spanish can understand each other quite well by default
[03:41] <pajamian> KennedyNoia: have you tried the alternate install CD?
[03:41] <carandraug> Trinithis: since ntfs3g I think it's flawless
[03:42] <Trinithis> So it allows r/w to my windows partition right?
[03:42] <chronographer> yep
[03:42] <carandraug> Trinithis: yes

[03:43] <acrousey> I am not finding my monitor listed in "sudo gksu displayconfig-gtk". I am getting kind of frustrated with the Plug'n'Play option. Is there a way I could manually enter my monitor into "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf"?
[03:43] <zeeeee> (i know that traditionally it's a config file meant to be manually edited, but i was wondering if ubuntu has some automatic hardware configuration magic that includes generating an fstab)
[03:43] <carandraug> zeeeee: changes won't be lost. You can manually edit it, it's not that hard
[03:43] <Trinithis> I won't be doing 'clever' things like that :D
[03:43] <joker> what is the easy way to install gtk+

[03:44] <pajamian> joker: it should already be installed
[03:45] <hitman1985> sup all, is there anyone here who knows about linux webhosting in general, i need a special feature to work and im not sure if i can make it happen or how ...
[03:45] <zeeeee> carandraug, and also, i'm wondering how this interacts with things that automatically mount partitions (e.g. when attaching a removable disk)
[03:45] <Zasp> hitman1985, ask the question
[03:45] <carandraug> zeeeee: no idea, sorry. Never heard of tool to automatically edit it
[03:45] <pajamian> hitman1985: what do you need to work?
[03:45] <hitman1985> i was thinkin about this :
[03:46] <hitman1985> i create a folder with my ftp program and i want ppl to be able to browse that folder and acces files from their webbrowser after putting in the correct password
[03:46] <hitman1985> i dont know if that is coming out correctly :)
[03:46] <pajamian> hitman1985: that's easy
[03:46] <hitman1985> pajamian, ok, how to do it on a 1and1 hosted linux server ;-) still easy ?
[03:47] <carandraug> zeeeee: from my experience, no automatically mounted partition appeared there, ever. Maybe there's someway to make them interact and auto-add but I don't know how
[03:47] <hitman1985> i got my domains and so on and all the php stuff i needed worked so far but in that function im totally nooob
[03:47] <lone-soldier> just installed ubuntu from windows. when booting ubuntu, it enters a command line after the loading splash. whats wrong? please assist
[03:48] <pajamian> hitman1985: all you do is create the folder in your webspace (via ftp) and you can use http basic authentication to control access to it.
[03:48] <hitman1985> what is basic authetication ?
[03:48] <pajamian> one sec ...
[03:48] <hitman1985> pajamian, sorry forgot to put that upfront :(
[03:48] <Zasp> Anybody ever get "I/O Error. Reboot" error when booting from ubuntu CD?
[03:48] <carandraug> lone-soldier: what else appears? No error? Did you installed the desktop version? Because the server version has no graphics by default
[03:49] <Zasp> I get the menu, but when I select anything it gives me the errors...theres tons of people that apparently have it, but nobodies posting solutions?
[03:49] <chronographer> can anyone remember how to stop the compiz delay when clicking menus and things?
[03:49] <pajamian> hitman1985: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html
[03:50] <lone-soldier> installed the desktop version, no error messages, i get the command line screen that says type help for a list of commands
[03:50] <chronographer> oh and can someone tell me how to manually add some applications to startup? gnome-sessions-preferences is not working for me.
[03:50] <ShutterBC> Zasp: did you try to make sure the CD isn't damaged?
[03:50] <pajamian> hitman1985: please continue to discuss this in channel.  There's no need for PM.
[03:50] <hitman1985> pajamian, oh ok sorry
[03:50] <Zasp> ShutterBC, nod
[03:51] <dexter> histo; i used the ubottu's help...but still i ain't getting any result
[03:51] <hitman1985> pajamian, i ll read me into it and then if i got some more questions later i ll come online, thank you so far
[03:51] <carandraug> lone-soldier: that's strange. Try Ctrl+Alt+F7 to go for the graphic server. If that doesn't work, log in and the run "startx"
[03:51] <floppyears> hi guys
[03:51] <pajamian> hitman1985: well, depending on how much people want to get around the security of basic auth, the most common attack is a brute force password guessing approach.
[03:51] <floppyears> my ubuntu machine has a dvd burner
[03:52] <floppyears> how can I use ubuntu to figure out the type of dvds and cds formats that it support ?
[03:52] <hwilde_> floppyears, what formats do yo uwant
[03:52] <lone-soldier> i am running raid-0, could that be a problem?
[03:52] <floppyears> hwilde_: I just want to find out the formats that the player support
[03:53] <hwilde_> floppyears, what format do you want it to supprot
[03:53] <hitman1985> pajamian, i ll be using some random passwords, as long as i can make them, mixed characters, so a brute will take month to figure that out
[03:53] <floppyears> hwilde_: I have both dvd+r and dvd-r
[03:53] <floppyears> I just want to know which one works with the player
[03:53] <hitman1985> pajamian, if im correct with saying that :)
[03:53] <Trinithis> What file systems are good?
[03:53] <pajamian> hitman1985: mixed case letters and numbers with some other symbols thrown in is best.
[03:53] <hwilde_> floppyears, type umm lspci -v
[03:53] <hwilde_> floppyears, look for the dvd
[03:54] <usser> Trinithis, reiserfs
[03:54] <hitman1985> pajamian, yes i got a password mixup here with up to 128 bit, from my buddy who works for the feds somewhere in GA :-)
[03:54] <Trinithis> For FAT in particular, what about 16 vs 32?
[03:54] <hitman1985> should be secure for the start then i hope
[03:54] <floppyears> hwilde_: nothing shows up that has dvd in that list
[03:55] <hitman1985> pajamian, but hey i got to run pick him up at the airport lil quick i ll be on in about 1 hr or 2 again, maybe your still there later, then we ll talk some more ok ?
[03:55] <carandraug> lone-soldier: don't know anything about RAID but I think that it shouldn't be a problem with Ubuntu
[03:55] <pajamian> hitman1985: also use md5 passwords as the older crypt ones have a limit of 8 chars.
[03:55] <hiptobecubic> i have the backports repository installed and i to downgrade qt from 4.4 to 4.3, which is default. how can i do this?
[03:55] <pajamian> hitman1985: I don't know if I'll be here then but if I am then we can certainly talk.
[03:57] <pajamian> !pin | hiptobecubic
[03:57] <Serval> how Do I install VMware tools on Ubuntu?
[03:57] <hiptobecubic> pajamian, thanks :)
[03:58] <mEDEc_> hey, does anyone know how good ATi card support is currently?
[03:58] <mEDEc_> apparently they have gotten a lot better, and i'm thinking about buying a radeon for my new rig
[03:58] <hitman1985> pajamian, i  guess we can just cancel that :) my friend wants to go out after :( booooo i ll catch you some other day maybe :) thanks so far tho
[03:58] <hitman1985> i gtg so have fun and take care all ////
[03:58] <pajamian> hitman1985: no worries, at least you have a good starting point now.
[03:58] <ASrock> how do i set up 2 monitors cloned in ubuntu?

[04:00] <ldiamond> synergyc
[04:00] <Serval> How do I install vmware tools on an Ubuntu virtual machine?
[04:01] <hwilde_> !who > ldiamond
[04:01] <hwilde_> ldiamond, how do you start it on startup
[04:01] <viper> mEDEc_ , compiz is still a problem, but as long as you follow setup your xorg.conf file correctly there is no issues, if your running one monitor compiz should work fine
[04:01] <Addernator> whats wrong with flash player?
[04:02] <ldiamond> hwilde_, I went into system, preferences, sessions and added the command there
[04:02] <hwilde_> ldiamond, where?

[04:03] <ldiamond> hwilde_, in startup... I pressed "Add"
[04:03] <Addernator> how can i stop my flash player from jumping and freezing?
[04:03] <cbk486> I have tested mp3 files and .flac, and they both don't work
[04:03] <Gracana> How does spell checking work in ubuntu?
[04:03] <hwilde_> ldiamond, I don't see that option on my menu
[04:03] <ldiamond> hwilde_, when I do ps -A, I see the process is started.
[04:03] <Gracana> That is, what services or packages provide it?
[04:04] <xomp> man, I've not updated since the release of hardy lol. Some 300+ updates to download :S
[04:04] <Gracana> Looks like gnome-spell and aspell.

[04:06] <fistandandelus> what i did was completely remove fglrx restricted then installed envy drivers..then i realized i needed those restricted drivers for my atheros card, so i reinstalled them
[04:06] <hwilde_> nooo mine first
[04:06] <TheMaxzilla> nonono
[04:06] <ShutterBC> I have to admit, I'm sometimes a little slow with updating.  I've had some things break after getting updates -- is there an easy way to roll back changes if something goes bad?
[04:06] <DayOldPorridge> Can anyone help me out with the fix on Intrepid to the pam problem?  I'm not quite sure what my /etc/pam.d/common-session is supposed to look like and what I'm supposed to edit?
[04:06] <hwilde_> ShutterBC, I wish there was a global "undo"
[04:07] <hwilde_> !intrepid > DayOldPorridge
[04:07] <ldiamond> Can any1 tell me how I can look at a process' output when the process has been started outside my terminal?
[04:07] <Gracana> fistandandelus, you're just running a different kernel now, and the old one shows up below it on the grub menu. Normal behavior, nothing to worry about.
[04:07] <fistandandelus> cool, anyway to get rid of it?
[04:07] <hwilde_> ldiamond, you have to find where it's started, and capture the output to a log file like >> ~/mylog.txt
[04:07] <Giddykong> damn i dont know how you guys can do this support, i work as a tech in a pc store and i go insane without ever dealing with people
[04:07] <ldiamond> hwlide_, I'm fine with only getting what will be outputted next, isnt there a way to catch it with a console?
[04:08] <carandraug> fistandandelus: just comment out the lines in /boot/grub/menu.lst if you really don't wann se it
[04:08] <lone-soldier> carandraug, tried but no use
[04:08] <hwilde_> ldiamond, find where it is started.
[04:08] <ldiamond> hwilde_, how?
[04:08] <carandraug> lone-soldier: no error appeared? Just a terminal?
[04:09] <favro> I removed mythtv and it took the init.d script for vncserver with it..why? - sudo dpkg-reconfigure vnc4server doesn't regenerate it - neither does apt-get remove / apt-get install. Any help with a replacement script?
[04:09] <hwilde_> ldiamond, goto terminal and type locate whatever its called
[04:09] <dexter> hey...can anyone help me....i went to system-->pref--->sound..i selected alsa sound drivers for all options nd tested it...i get beep sounds from my speakers, but i dont get sounds wen i play movies or listen 2 songs

[04:10] <tina> i did nothing happen
[04:10] <hwilde_> tina, what file is it
[04:10] <carandraug> lone-soldier: that's usually when it can't start initfram. Sorry, can't help you with that
[04:10] <dexter> hwilde_; yes its unmuted, the master, PCM, front
[04:10] <tina> java 6

[04:11] <cbk486> hwilde, thanks
[04:11] <hwilde_> Flynsarmy, chdir is not a command.  type  "man cd"
[04:11] <fistandandelus> would anyone here know anything about fglrx
[04:12] <hwilde_> Flynsarmy, actually,   info cd
[04:12] <hwilde_> !fglrx > fistandandelus
[04:12] <hwilde_> Flynsarmy, http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=38502687
[04:12] <hwilde_> Flynsarmy, no no wrong link
[04:12] <carandraug> lone-soldier: also, is this what appears? http://pastebin.com/d2498bdd9  something should appear after that
[04:12] <hwilde_> bad clipboard!

[04:13] <hwilde_> voila, chdir manpage

[04:15] <pjwaffle> Hi, would anyone know if I could setup a verizon wireless access card on my ubuntu 8.04.1 laptop?
[04:15] <hwilde_> pjwaffle, man I tried that for awhile, couldn't quite get it to send the username and password right...
[04:15] <favro> I removed mythtv and it took the init.d script for vncserver with it..why? - sudo dpkg-reconfigure vnc4server doesn't regenerate it - neither does apt-get remove / apt-get install. Any help with a replacement script pls?

[04:20] <hiptobecubic> so i'm looking at this "force version" in synaptic and i keep getting errors about dependencies and stuff. I'm trying to take the qtlibs from 4.4 to 4.3. can anyone help?
[04:20] <jtacuyan> what do I need to see Login screen for me to change it?
[04:20] <arvind_khadri> salaz, welcome  :)
[04:20] <jtacuyan> I go system->administration
[04:20] <pajamian> hiptobecubic: qt is going to have a lot of dependancies and if you try to pin a lower version you will have problems.
[04:21] <jtacuyan> but cant find any Login Window
[04:21] <amit> alrite, so i am installing ndiswrapper 1.53, after creating the ndiswrapper directory it says change to that directory and "make uninstall""make", how do i change to that directory
[04:21] <sarthor> hi. i installed.. apt-get -y install bittorrent-gui.. What installed ? i cant find in the list. how to run bittorrent now??
[04:21] <talcite> hi guys. I'm working with networkmanger + openVPN. I have no problem connecting to the VPN, but once I'm connected, it drops everything except local traffic. i.e. I can access machines across the VPN, but I can't access webpages anymore
[04:21] <zelrikriando> Is there a way to limit the CPU usage?
[04:21] <purpl1> Any data recovery software for linux??
[04:21] <arvind_khadri> jtacuyan, gksu gdm-setup
[04:21] <pajamian> amit: cd ndiswrapper
[04:21] <ldiamond> sarthor, try bittorrent-gui in a console
[04:21] <lone-soldier> carandraug, yes! thats exactly what appears, nothing happens after that
[04:22] <purpl1> How can I recover data or restore the partition table?
[04:22] <hiptobecubic> pajamian, well i am currently using backports and it's version 4.4, but this version has issues with displaying skype so i'd like to revert to 4.3.
[04:22] <sarthor> ldiamond, command not found
[04:22] <ldiamond> then make sure you check in applications.
[04:22] <amit> So cd ndiswapper, tha should wor, and why the next step is make uninstall
[04:22] <pajamian> hiptobecubic: what app are you using from backports?
[04:22] <arvind_khadri> sarthor, get a torrent and start downloading it
[04:23] <pajamian> amit: I don't know why.
[04:23] <hiptobecubic> pajamian, i honestly don't remember why i started using backports but there was some legitimate reason at the time. I only want to downgrade qt 4.4
[04:24] <arvind_khadri> jtacuyan, sorry its gksu gdmsetup
[04:24] <carandraug> lone-soldier: wait a few minutes. 2 or 3 minutes. Sometimes it can take more. Also, has ubuntu ever booted since you installed? It may be that something went wrong during installation.
[04:24] <amit> pajamjan: cd diswrapper- says no file or directory
[04:24] <lone-soldier> no i've only just installed, so all i need to do is wait several minutes and it should boot?
[04:24] <arvind_khadri> amit, you need to give the whole path for that
[04:25] <pajamian> hiptobecubic: you're going to have to resolve all the dependancies, then.  Might want to turn off the backports repository and then reinstall any apps that it complains about.
[04:25] <amit> how the path works arvind_khadri
[04:25] <amit> its in my temp
[04:25] <pajamian> amit: that's because it's ndiswrapper
[04:25] <hiptobecubic> pajamian, i'll try, thanks
[04:25] <arvind_khadri> amit, where exactly is your ndiswrapper directory
[04:26] <amit> trash
[04:26] <Dr_willis> Hmm.. what an odd place to put it
[04:26] <ShutterBC> Sounds like there's some risk of breakage when messing with qt libs.  Which makes me think... what's an effective differential backup scheme for OS backups?
[04:26] <arvind_khadri> Dr_willis, :)
[04:26] <amit> wait wait amit/desktop
[04:27] <pajamian> LoL
[04:27] <Dr_willis> amit,  lesson #1 - linux IS case SenEsEtiVe Desktop is not the same as desktop
[04:27] <amit> lesson learned
[04:27] <Dr_willis> amit,  so you mean /home/amit/Desktop/ndiswrapper (or whatever its called)
[04:27] <arvind_khadri> amit, cd ~/Desktop/ndiswrapper
[04:27] <amit> yes
[04:27] <carandraug> lone-soldier: no. If that appears is because something is worng. Sometimes the error just takes time to appear
[04:27] <amit> cool awesome i will try it
[04:27] <ShutterBC> my ndiswrapper is in trash too :) (because I try to avoid using it)
[04:28] <carandraug> lone-soldier: but in your case, I would just uninstall and reinstall it.
[04:28] <pajamian> amit: btw, ndiswrapper is good as a last resort, but you should use it only as a last resort to get your wireless working.  Usually there are better more supported ways.
[04:29] <danbhfive> pajamian: what are the better ways?
[04:29] <pajamian> danbhfive: usually the restricted drivers manager.
[04:29] <jeeves__> what are the commands to compleatly remove the SSH server from my server (through Webmin), then reinstall it?  my copy is bad
[04:29] <lone-soldier> carandraug: ok i'll give it a shot. thanks for the help
[04:30] <danbhfive> pajamian: ah, ok
[04:30] <hwilde_> jeeves__, sudo apt-get remove --purge openssh-server  && sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[04:30] <New2Linux> Hello I am new to Linux and am trying it on a old computer it has 500mhz and 192 mb ram will I be able to run Ubuntu on it?
