[07:22] <bicky> hey, followed the howto on how to play WoW on ubuntu from the forum. Now when I start it I can't use my keyboard
[07:22] <Pelo> iAtheist, the best thing you can do is search for your hardware in the forum
[07:22] <Pelo> bicky, is this a wine installation ?
[07:23] <Pelo> bicky, ?
[07:23] <bicky> pelo, well the only thing about wine is updating the version, and then install it trough synpatic
[07:23] <bicky> pelo, or apt-get
[07:24] <Pelo> bicky, I'm asking if you are running  WOW on wine ?  if so asking in #winehq is probably the best place
[07:24] <bicky> bicky, ah ok
[07:24] <bicky> lol
[07:24] <ilikec0ws> Nice going ^^
[07:24] <iAtheist> pelo: thats last resort...
[07:24] <buhnici> ola
[07:24] <bicky> Pelo, ah ok.. I'll check it out there then
[07:24] <ilikec0ws> RkyRaccoon, You get anywhere mate?
[07:25] <random1> Hey
[07:25] <Pelo> iAtheist, actualy that should be the first  place you look ,  the forum contains a lot of info on how to run specific hardware,  specialy embeded ones
[07:25] <RkyRaccoon> ilikec0ws: its downloading, my internet is kinda messed up so its gonna take some tiem
[07:25] <random1> So I've been trying to get kde installed on this machine.
[07:25] <random1> But can't manage to do it.
[07:25] <W1Z> does any1 know of any good working media centers for linux that will not have a problem findign my windows machine on a network? like wirelessly?
[07:25] <iAtheist> Pelo: oh, but i did look? nothing there on it. Actually im the only person who posts about this specific laptop....
[07:26] <ilikec0ws> RkyRaccoon, What exactly are you downloading?
[07:26] <ChaoticMind> hey, newbie here. For a reason or another, Ubuntu is using the system beep to do some sounds. for example in the terminal when i ctrl+z or backspace too much. or even in firefox when a find doesn't get a hit. is there a way to convert that sound effect from an internal beep to some sort of normal sound file?
[07:26] <Pelo> random1,  installing kde on ubuntu or installing kubuntu on a clean machine ?
[07:26] <random1> ubuntu
[07:26] <BoostedSS> does the wireless in ubuntu support wpa or just wep?
[07:26] <ieee802> kubuntu on a clean machine
[07:26] <ieee802> i prefer ubuntu with gnome though
[07:26] <ilikec0ws> BoostedSS, It does aye
[07:26] <Pelo> ChaoticMind,  try looking in menu > system > prefs > sounds
[07:26] <PriceChild> BoostedSS, both depending on the card
[07:26] <ag0g0gir1> hey erUSUL what is the difference between powerpc-smp and powerpc please?
[07:26] <rustalot> !pastebin
[07:26] <ChaoticMind> thanks Pelo
[07:26] <bobdrakken> everytime you enter a channel.. it says your ip address.. can you stop this
[07:26] <ieee802> BoostedSS, i use wpa on mine
[07:27] <iAtheist> Pelo: thanks anyways
[07:27] <bobdrakken> anyway to stop that from happening
[07:27] <ilikec0ws> !wireless | BoostedSS
[07:27] <Pelo> random1,   sudo apt-get install  kubuntu-desktop
[07:27] <random1> I do that
[07:27] <ilikec0ws> Poor ubotu is ill again!
[07:27] <BoostedSS> Ok, it doesn't give me the option in the gui for wpa, is it something that I have to use the command line for?
[07:27] <random1> And it says it couldn't find any package with that name
[07:27] <random1> well
[07:27] <random1> sec
[07:27] <BoostedSS> I'm a noob with linux and wireless
[07:27] <rustalot> where is the pastebin site?
[07:27] <Pelo> bobdrakken,  ask in #xchat
[07:27] <random1> Yeah
[07:27] <bobdrakken> Pelo: thanks
[07:27] <vox754> ATTENTION: the beloved ubotu is down. Wait until he respawns.
[07:27] <ilikec0ws> rustalot, http://pastebin.ca/
[07:28] <samwize> lol
[07:28] <Pelo> random1, you'll need to be connected to the internet then sudo apt-get update && apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:28] <m11> *ubotu will spawn in 30 seconds*
[07:29] <random1> It should be though.
[07:29] <ag0g0gir1> anyone know the difference between powerpc-smp and powerpc?
[07:29] <Layer8> guys I have a mp3 and a cue file...how can I get this oncd?
[07:29] <samwize> zaggynl: no i was making a NetHack reference
[07:29] <Pici> ag0g0gir1: smp = multiprocessor
[07:29] <Pelo> random1, did you mess with sources.list ?
[07:29] <random1> fuck
[07:29] <samwize> WoW < NetHack
[07:29] <ag0g0gir1> ahhh,. thanks Pici
[07:29] <zaggynl> oh, pardon me
[07:29] <random1> No
[07:29] <Pelo> random1, watch your language
[07:29] <erUSUL> ag0g0gir1: smp is for machines with more than one procesor or a multicore procesor
[07:29] <zaggynl> * > grinding mmo's
[07:29] <m11> layer8 - gnome baker ?
[07:29] <random1> See I'm stuck
[07:29] <random1> Cause I can't seem to configure my wireless properly
[07:30] <random1> And I can't get a gui.
[07:30] <LukeEkblad> hey
[07:30] <random1> And it seems either would make the other task simpler.
[07:30] <Pelo> random1, might be a better idea to dl the kubuntu cd and install it clean if you prefer kde
[07:30] <Layer8> m11, does it do this? there are the track infos in the cue file
[07:31] <ChaoticMind> Pelo, regarding the beep thing, It got disabled, but I can't find a way to replace it with another sound effect. Is there a way you can think of? In any case, visual flash seems to be a fine alternative, so not that big of a deal....
[07:31] <m11> layer8 , didnt used it , but i think it reads *.cue
[07:31] <ekim|irc-> Hi
[07:31] <LukeEkblad> I need help, i get this http://lukeekblad.googlepages.com/grrrr whenever i open the Add?Remove thing
[07:32] <ekim|irc-> I have a windows xp pc , with 2 hd's my boot drivwe with is 40 gigs and my data drive with is 120 gigs , my data drive is formatted with *Compressed* ntfs , will the ubuntu installer be able to resize this partition without problems ?
[07:32] <ekim|irc-> is the ubuntu installer aware of *Compressed* ntfs
[07:32] <Pelo> ChaoticMind, I haven'T readly messed with the sound but as everything in linux can be customized it can probably be done,  easily is another thing ,   maybe you can have a look in gconf-editor, that would be my next area of investigation
[07:32] <toni_> hi
[07:32] <ekim|irc-> I dont want to turn my pc into a glorified doorstop
[07:33] <Almighty_Henaro> Guys I'm having trouble updating :-(

[07:33] <Almighty_Henaro> ilikec0ws, Oh I see
[07:34] <Pici> mon^rch: type `who` at a terminal. Its probably just a tty/terminal using a user login.
[07:34] <random1> How does one keep it from scrolling so fast you can't read the output of a command?
[07:34] <ilikec0ws> Almighty_Henaro, That was hours ago so I dont know about now
[07:34] <mon^rch> Pici: ty
[07:34] <ekim|irc-> does anyone know the answer to my question

[07:34] <r00t_> where does streamtuner save music to?
[07:34] <neverblue> how do you mark a dir your currently in, that you would like to go back into?
[07:35] <Pici> ekim|irc-: If we dont know, we dont know.  The people in this channel are all volunteers.
[07:35] <cntrlx> for some reason i cannot apt-get build-dep pidgin  within fiesty..  It wont find source package for pidgin.
[07:35] <ekim|irc-> I just dont want my question to get lost in the scrollback
[07:35] <Almighty_Henaro> ilikec0ws it still seems slow for me Iget this: W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[07:35] <ekim|irc-> is this a known issue ?
[07:35] <ekim|irc-> or maybe a non-issue
[07:35] <ekim|irc-> Hopefully
[07:35] <toni_> I'm having some problems with make command on feisty
[07:35] <toni_> it doesn't seem to work
[07:35] <ilikec0ws> ekim|irc, Why not resize it inside windows, then get installer to use free space?
[07:35] <ekim|irc-> is ubuntu a cd or a dvd ?
[07:35] <Pici> toni_: do you have build-essential installed? you need that to compile.
[07:35] <Pelo> toni_,  did you install  build-essential ?
[07:36] <ilikec0ws> ekim|irc, either
[07:36] <Pici> ekim|irc-: depends on what you download.
[07:36] <toni_> yes
[07:36] <ekim|irc-> I dont have a dvd burner
[07:36] <ekim|irc-> is that ok ?
[07:36] <toni_> i have the make command
[07:36] <toni_> but it does nothing
[07:36] <cntrlx> for some reason i cannot apt-get build-dep pidgin  within fiesty..  It wont find source package for pidgin.
[07:36] <Pelo> toni_,  did you run ./configure first ?
[07:36] <LukeEkblad> Errors were encountered while processing:

[07:36] <Pici> cntrlx: pidgin isnt in the feisty repositories.
[07:36] <toni_> well it's sudo make menuconfig
[07:36] <neverblue> how do you mark a dir your currently in, that you would like to go back into?
[07:36] <cntrlx> ok
[07:37] <Pelo> toni_,  then you are more apt at this then I , I've never compiled a kernel
[07:37] <Pelo> later folks
[07:37] <toni_> Pelo, ok
[07:37] <ilikec0ws> ekim|irc, Did you get what i said just before that?
[07:37] <Pici> toni_: can you pastebin the error you are getting?
[07:37] <erUSUL> toni_: you may need to install lincurses
[07:37] <ekim|irc-> has anyone here tried to resize a compressed ntfs partition with the ubuntu installer
[07:37] <cntrlx> can i get the repo's so they work when i configure pidgin.  repos from synaptic i mean.
[07:37] <ekim|irc-> I can't be the only one...can i ?
[07:37] <toni_> Pici,  that's what's weird, there is no erros
[07:37] <ilikec0ws> ekim|irc, Do it under windows, then get the installer to use the free space?
[07:37] <r00t_> if noone knows where streamripper saves ripped files to,does anyone know how i can find out?
[07:37] <toni_> erUSUL, yes, i have
[07:38] <erUSUL> toni_: paste the output of the command
[07:38] <toni_> ok
[07:38] <vox754> ekim|irc-, I guess not many people compress their file systems.
[07:38] <erUSUL> toni_: paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[07:38] <ekim|irc-> :(
[07:38] <ekim|irc-> The installer uses gparted correct ?
[07:38] <toni_> :/usr/src/linux$ sudo make menuconfig
[07:38] <toni_> Password:
[07:38] <toni_> and then nothing
[07:38] <toni_> no error
[07:39] <Pici> tux2005: usually that means it worked.

[07:42] <toni_> erUSUL, yes, that's weird
[07:42] <Sim1> I am a developer, how can i submit my .deb package?
[07:42] <erUSUL> toni_: do sudo make mrproper and do make menuconfig as normal user

[07:44] <ekim|irc-> I am worried that resizing my ntfs partition will kill my hard drive
[07:44] <ekim|irc-> or at least the data
[07:44] <gnomefreak> ekim|irc-: depends on the cd (if ubuntu gparted most likely but i think its ran through partman)
[07:45] <w00t> okay well how about this one: is the alsa driverset in the "realtime" kernel as new as the newest ones from the alsa site? and if im hacving problems, will that porbably help with running jack?
[07:45] <erUSUL> DjViper: maybe your vga driver do not support it?
[07:45] <toni_> erUSUL, I have already done a apt-get install --reinstall make
[07:45] <DjViper> erUSUL: I dont know
[07:45] <toni_> i'll try the same with build-essential
[07:45] <Pici> LukeEkblad: I'd join #ubuntu effects and ask again. Specifiy that you're having a problem with a beryl package.  I'm not sure what to do in this instance.
[07:45] <cavalierprime> DjViper you need to install beryl
[07:45] <LukeEkblad> ok...
[07:45] <LukeEkblad> Pici:  thanks
[07:45] <w00t> for beryl join #beryl or #opencompositing
[07:46] <gnomefreak> ekim|irc-: and i still think its parted see following message
[07:46] <gnomefreak> ekim|irc-: parted - The GNU Parted disk partition resizing program
[07:46] <ilikec0ws> DjViper, Do you know what graphics card you have?
[07:46] <cavalierprime> desktop effects are done with beryl extensions
[07:46] <ekim|irc-> I am really worried that its gonna foobar my drive
[07:46] <LuitvD> I need help... wireless doesn't work on my fresh Ubuntu installation... it freezes as soon as I let it try our WEP key...
[07:46] <DjViper> ilikec0ws: ati card, 3d gfx is enabled
[07:46] <ekim|irc-> This is a legitimate concern , right ?
[07:46] <LuitvD> trying to find out why right now...
[07:46] <cavalierprime> LuitvD you may need an ndis wrapper
[07:47] <gnomefreak> ekim|irc-: if you mess up its possible. hint back up
[07:47] <cavalierprime> my Dell laptop did the same thing
[07:47] <gnomefreak> ekim|irc-: even if you dont its still possible
[07:47] <ekim|irc-> :(
[07:47] <vox754> ekim|irc-, yes. Better not using compressed data, and also defragment as much as you can in Windows.
[07:47] <ekim|irc-> I have nothing to backup to
[07:47] <LuitvD> cavalierprime: that's the weird thing, there's a driver...
[07:47] <gnomefreak> ekim|irc-: than you have nothing to lose :)
[07:47] <LuitvD> cavalierprime: you mean i need the original driver (through ndiswrapper)  to get it working properly?
[07:48] <ilikec0ws> ekim|irc-, Did you just blacnk out my suggestion i guess?
[07:48] <cavalierprime> LuitvD I had to use my proprietary driver with an ndis wrapper to get it to work
[07:48] <ekim|irc-> vox754, I compressed the entire drive when I formatted it
[07:48] <ekim|irc-> There is no way decompress it
[07:48] <LuitvD> cavalierprime: damn, that sucks
[07:48] <cavalierprime> ya
[07:48] <ekim|irc-> gnomefreak, I said I had nothing to backup ONTO not that I had nothing to backup
[07:48] <gnomefreak> ah ok
[07:48] <ekim|irc-> I guess I could get all the stuff back in the event of a total drive failure
[07:48] <LuitvD> cavalierprime: did it completely freeze when you tried the supplied driver?
[07:48] <ekim|irc-> I guess I can backup my photos onto a portable hdd I have
[07:48] <cavalierprime> yeah
[07:48] <cotyrothery> Ok i would like to recover windows but i think after having ubuntu on my harddrive it will not let me it keeps saying that user partion cant be created
[07:49] <Almighty_Henaro> Hey guys I keep getting this error when trying to reinstall a package ->E: ircd-hybrid: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[07:49] <LuitvD> cavalierprime: was it a RaLink chipset?
[07:49] <wydd> I have an eps file that opens correctly in almost any other distro, except in ubuntu 7.04.  gs freezes after trying to query some fonts (Times).
[07:49] <vox754> ekim|irc-, obviously an external HD is the way to go.
[07:49] <LuitvD> cavalierprime: mine is ...

[07:49] <war_inside_my_he> quit
[07:50] <cotyrothery> Can someone tell me what i need to do to get my drive ready for windows to be installed
[07:50] <m11> > #windows
[07:50] <toni_> erUSUL, solved: gcc was but a dummy package; installed the real one and now it works. Thnaks for your time anyway ;-)
[07:50] <cotyrothery> it seems i cant get installed after i have had linux on the hard drive
[07:50] <vox754> wydd, try "evince <file>"
[07:50] <Pici> !windows | cotyrothery
[07:50] <ubot3> cotyrothery: For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[07:51] <cavalierprime> cotyrothery:  you need to reformat in ntfs or FAT
[07:51] <LuitvD> cavalierprime: thanks for your help :)
[07:51] <cavalierprime> LuitvD:  np
[07:51] <erUSUL> toni_: but... why did make not complined about missing gcc??? o_O! ???
[07:51] <wydd> vox754, already did. It freezes. I tried gs file.eps and it hangs on "querying operating system for font files"
[07:51] <cotyrothery> cavalierprime: and then it should work?
[07:51] <Squip> hey everyone.. can anyone tell me how i can get Beryl to run on startup?
[07:51] <cavalierprime> yup
[07:51] <toni_> erUSUL, no idea
[07:51] <cotyrothery> cavalierprime: well i did that before and it didn't
[07:51] <ImLukeEkblad> Pici:  i whent to ubuntu affects and noone was there
[07:52] <cavalierprime> cotyrothery:  you may have to fdisk then and make new partitions
[07:52] <erUSUL> Squip: add it in System>Preferences>Sessions
[07:52] <ekim|irc-> does the partition editor support compressed ntfs ?
[07:52] <cotyrothery> cavalierprime: ok
[07:52] <Pici> ImLukeEkblad: #ubuntu-effects or #beryl
[07:52] <Squip> thanks
[07:52] <cotyrothery> cavalierprime: How should i make them then
[07:52] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[07:52] <vox754> wydd, have you tried "gsview"? I feel like the fonts are not installed. No experience with that.
[07:53] <r00t_> im running ubutnu off a usb drive conected to my laptop,is there anyway i can move it onto my laptop harddrive?
[07:53] <cavalierprime> cotyrothery:  if you aren't gonna dual boot, just make one large one
[07:53] <rUiSu> hi people :]
[07:53] <rUiSu> I would like to know if reiserfs 4 is included (supported) in ubuntu 7.04 :]
[07:53] <wydd> vox754, already tried gimp, ggv, and so.... do you know anyone who can help. I have installed a lot of fonts....
[07:53] <cotyrothery> cavalierprime: no i plan on dual boot the only reason i need windows is so that i can have wow running full fps
[07:53] <r00t_> anyone know where the default save directory is for streamripper/tuner?
[07:53] <erUSUL> rUiSu: nope
[07:54] <cavalierprime> cotyrothery: just go halfs or something then
[07:54] <rUiSu> oh u.u   i sure would like it to, it seems so promissing.
[07:54] <wydd> Has anyone experienced problems with gv fonts? Unable to render an eps file?
[07:54] <Ash13> Hey, can someone help me?
[07:54] <JKtheCJer> hey everyone: so, i finally got my wardriving setup working...under windows :-(
[07:55] <vox754> wydd, check out launchpad if it is a known bug
[07:55] <JKtheCJer> it appears that Fesity broke support for the Earthmate LT-20
[07:55] <Pici> !ask | Ash13
[07:55] <ubot3> Ash13: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:55] <cavalierprime> cotyrothery: you can use the GNOME partition manager to resize the partition
[07:55] <rUiSu> is there any way reiserfs 4 can be implanted before installing ubuntu?
[07:55] <cotyrothery> alright
[07:55] <newbuntu3> Hello all. I'm trying to customize a new ubuntu (running on virtualbox); I have 2 problems: 1) How do I make checkgmail run on startup, and add it's icon to the applications tab? 2) How do I make the fonts smaller/windows-like?
[07:56] <Bsims> Any one willing to accept a dcc I am testing some settings in irssi
[07:56] <Ash13> Okay, so my aMSN is having this weird problem where I can view cameras, they work... relatively well and I don't have any plugin's, but I can't accept audio because I need an Audio/Video Plugin that doesn't exist, whats up?
[07:56] <vox754> Bsims, #ubuntu-offtopic please
[07:56] <Pici> newbuntu3: 1) add it to the startup programs, preferences>session 1a) use the alacarte menu editor to add it to a menu 2) under preferences>fonts theres an advanced button, you can change the font dpi globally there.
[07:57] <osxdude|desktop> I got xchat to work
[07:57] <kduboi1> /commands
[07:57] <osxdude|desktop> using it now
[07:57] <r00t_> ARRGGGGGHHHH why cant i figure out where streamripper is hidding my files!!!!
[07:57] <samwize> Ash13: it might be a driver issue
[07:57] <Pici> r00t_: maybe in ~/.streamripper?
[07:58] <rUiSu> r00t_, you may be downloading to a non existant directory?
[07:58] <Almighty_Henaro> Hey guys I'm getting this error when trying to reinstall ircd-hybrid -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29509/
[07:58] <Squip> hey guys, whats the best MSN client for Ubuntu?
[07:58] <wydd> Why an eps file that renders ok in Debian Etch, would freeze gv and family in ubunto feisty?
[07:58] <Ash13> But why does it now allow me to view cameras? I thought that aMSN was completely bugged out on those problems? And Kubuntu wouldn't let me use both.
[07:58] <PriceChild> !best | Squip
[07:58] <ubot3> Squip: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[07:58] <LuitvD> my wired LAN is being even stranger... Why is my HwAddr two times the normal length?
[07:58] <erUSUL> Squip: amsn or gaim
[07:58] <Ash13> aMSn in my opionion Squip, but that's all I use.
[07:58] <Pici> Squip: amsn is what I've ehard
[07:58] <Ash13> aMSN *
[07:58] <toni_> bye
[07:58] <kduboi1> r00t_: check hidden files. i always use streamtuner, which is a gui and it lets you specify in its options where streamripper will save the files to....
[07:58] <Squip> ok thanks guys :)
[07:58] <samwize> Ash13: hmm. im stuck too.
[07:58] <fsckr> can someone pls try http://ivtvdriver.org/ and tell me if you can get there or do you get a permissions problem?
[07:58] <Syntux> guys, I'm not able to set ALSA for sound playback getting this erro raudiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing.
[07:59] <samwize> i cant say ive ever used kubuntu or aMSN
[07:59] <kduboi1> /root
[07:59] <r00t_> kduboi1: thats what im useing also but i never specified a dir,is there a default one?
[07:59] <kduboi1> i honestly have to stop guessing at irc commands.... sorry :-)
[07:59] <rob19> how different is ubuntu from debian in terms of the actual operating system (i.e: directory structure, ubuntu does this instead of that, etc)?
[07:59] <mcp_> is there a volume meter installed? whats its name?
[07:59] <Ash13> Me mcp?
[07:59] <Pici> Almighty_Henaro: that usually means that theres some sort of configuration that you need to do before the process to start up.
[08:00] <erUSUL> fsckr: Forbbiden for me
[08:00] <dxdt> hi everybody!
[08:00] <Ash13> Hey dxd.
[08:00] <wydd> #gwyddion
[08:00] <Anlar> rob19: ubuntu == debian with non-ancient software, mostly.
[08:00] <Almighty_Henaro> Pici: Oh well I can't seem to update, would that effect it?
[08:00] <Zxcs> Whats a better IM app than gaim?
[08:00] <r00t_> kduboi1: never mind i found it!
[08:00] <nickrud> mcp, vumeter
[08:00] <mcp_> I got no sound on the right speaker. I want to know if something with them mixer settings messed up or headphone defect
[08:01] <Pici> Almighty_Henaro: Shoudlnt.
[08:01] <hylje> Anlar: ubuntu bases off debian testing
[08:01] <kduboi1> r00t_ specify it in directory>general>musicfolder
[08:01] <kduboi1> haha, alright
[08:01] <fsckr> ok thx erUSUL now i need to find out how to d/l the utilities for ivtv somewheres else LOL
[08:01] <Almighty_Henaro> Oh :(
[08:01] <rUiSu> mcp_  do you have that HD Audio?
[08:01] <r00t_> kduboi1: /opt/ripped
[08:01] <DJ-_-> anyone know of any open source dreamweaver like tools for ubuntu?
[08:01] <mcp_> no, 2 channel headphone
[08:01] <hawk> Are there mirrors for security.ubuntu.com?
[08:01] <PriceChild> hawk, not official mirrors
[08:01] <ianmcorvidae> DJ-_-: NVU is a good one, from what I've heard.
[08:01] <r00t_> anyone know if its possible to move my OS from a usb drive onto my laptop drive?
[08:01] <mwe> AFAIK most ubuntu packages are based on debian unstable packages
[08:01] <hawk> PriceChild: Ok, thanks
[08:01] <Almighty_Henaro> DJ-_-: Bluefish is what I use
[08:02] <rUiSu> lol
[08:02] <DJ-_-> ianmcorviadae and Almighty_Henaro: tx
[08:02] <random2> So
[08:02] <osxdude|desktop> mcp_: I am having the same problem. I was playing with the cable ten the right speaker started going out, then it died. Try the headphones whith another peice of equipment.
[08:02] <hawk> mwe: I think that's true for universal, but not necessarily for the main set of packages...
[08:02] <angel>  possible to install windows media player on ubuntu?
[08:02] <ilikec0ws> mwe, thats right, with the shot been taken every 6 months
[08:02] <angel> is it?
[08:02] <Prez_> hello
[08:02] <Anlar> angel: no.
[08:02] <angel> even in wine?
[08:02] <Anlar> angel: just install proper codecs for gstreamer, and totem etc wil start working
[08:02] <LuitvD> my Wired LAN doesn't work... how the hell is that possible? is Realtek 8168B unsupported?
[08:02] <PriceChild> angel, other players can play all the wmp codecs
[08:02] <DJ-_-> anyone given aptana a try?
[08:03] <PriceChild> !doesn't work
[08:03] <ubot3> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[08:03] <PriceChild> LuitvD, ^
[08:03] <Anlar> angel: wmp will likely never work. ever. not in any way.
[08:03] <PriceChild> LuitvD, what doesn't work?
[08:03] <angel> where can i find this codecs
[08:03] <PriceChild> !mp3 > angel (see the pm from ubotu)
[08:03] <LuitvD> PriceChild: it's not too strong for this one... Something's really weard
[08:03] <rUiSu> I just downloaded Ubuntu 7.04 and today I see reiserfs 4 is released u.u
[08:03] <LuitvD> PriceChild: It doesn't seem to handshake with my LAN switch even...
[08:03] <Ind[y] > I 've noticed that "Update Manager" does not automatically run at boot. I don't think I have changed something that could affect that, though. Anyway, I can see that "Update Notifier" is set at startup. Any help, please?
[08:04] <LuitvD> so practically it doesn't work at all
[08:04] <Prez_> let's see if someone can give me a pointer... I am running laterst ubuntu stable... when running default latest Ubuntu kernel I can suspend to disk, Fn + F12 on my thinkpad X60s.  Fn + F4 (Suspend to RAM) does nothing.  Now I am running 2.6.22 kernel and I can sleep but, suspend to disk now does nothing!  any ideas?
[08:04] <PriceChild> Ind[y] , system > admin > software sources
[08:04] <LuitvD> PriceChild: linux (ifconfig) does see it though...
[08:04] <PriceChild> LuitvD, well then its working...?
[08:04] <jkmz52> I was having a debait with a friend of mine, do you or do you not pronounce the G in Gnome?
[08:04] <PriceChild> LuitvD, what doesn't work?
[08:04] <PriceChild> jkmz52, personal preference.
[08:04] <LuitvD> PriceChild: it doesn't connect
[08:04] <ianmcorvidae> Ind[y] : Update manager will be run by Update notifier when it detects an update is available.
[08:04] <newbuntu3> pici, thanks, it did the trick
[08:04] <samwize> jkmz52: i dont
[08:04] <PriceChild> LuitvD, what bit doesn't connect?
[08:04] <Ind[y] > ianmcorvidae: ok
[08:04] <ianmcorvidae> Ind[y] : Don't worry about it, it'll work :)
[08:04] <Pici> newbuntu3: sure thing.
[08:04] <Ind[y] > PriceChild: ok. then?
[08:05] <LuitvD> PriceChild: I plug in my cables and the switch tells me it's not a LAN device that's connected...
[08:05] <Anlar> jkmz52: yes, because if you pronounce gnome properly, it is audible
[08:05] <itbhp> hi
[08:05] <PriceChild> LuitvD, I'm confused...?
[08:05] <Ind[y] > ianmcorvidae: I don't think so, because it has many days to update, and today that I did update manually it found a lot of updates :/
[08:05] <LuitvD> PriceChild: (not sure about that last part, but it blinks orange, which it normally doesn't)
[08:05] <Pici> jkmz52:
[08:05] <Pici> jkmz52: The official pronunciation of the name is /gnom/ with a hard G, although /nom/ (as in the English word "gnome") is also in common usage.
[08:05] <ianmcorvidae> Ind[y] : That is odd. I have no idea, then. (That's what it's supposed to to. heh)
[08:05] <r00t_> PriceChild: is it possible to move a copy of ubuntu off my usb drive which is whats running my laptop right now onto the laptop hd itself?
[08:06] <PriceChild> r00t_, I don't know, don't recommend it..
[08:06] <Ind[y] > ok :(
[08:06] <LuitvD> PriceChild: I can setup whatever I want, and connect cables, and tell ubuntu to ifup, but it's not connecting
[08:06] <crackerbox> like Gee-nome
[08:06] <Anlar> jkmz52: it comes from "gnu this and that" and that has hard g
[08:06] <PriceChild> LuitvD, what does it say in terminal?
[08:06] <crackerbox> or like G-unit
[08:06] <LuitvD> PriceChild: by the way: it shows "eth0:avah" too when I do ifconfig
[08:07] <LuitvD> PriceChild: what is that?
[08:07] <crackerbox> there should be an app called gunit
[08:07] <Anlar> avahi
[08:07] <LuitvD> Anlar: I know, but what does it do
[08:07] <erUSUL> LuitvD: wrong cables? maybe using a crossover ethernet cable?
[08:07] <LuitvD> erUSUL: I'm not
[08:07] <erUSUL> LuitvD: that's an alias (i suspect avahi the zeroconf daemon in ubuntu)
[08:07] <fbc> I heard Mark Shuttleworth just announce gobuntu?? What's the diff guys?
[08:08] <LuitvD> erUSUL: I'm really sure of that (tried all cables I could find)
[08:08] <Anlar> LuitvD: upnp. announces services to network neighborhood, and listens for them.. stuff like banshee file sharing etc use it
[08:08] <BoostedSS> ok, I have a fresh install of ubuntu on a laptop, I cant get it to connect to wireless.  I click the network icon my the time and join a new wireless network.  It never connects, I have a laptop right next to it and it is connected.  The wireless setup is a cisco ap with wpa-psk.  anyone have a clue
[08:08] <BoostedSS> I want to get rid of my windows box :)
[08:08] <dxdt> fbc: gobuntu is going to have no controversial semifree stuffs.
[08:08] <crackerbox> BoostedSS: configure Key ring
[08:08] <dxdt> fbc: in short
[08:08] <LuitvD> right, but avahi isn't the thing making it not work then, is it?
[08:08] <HYPOKRIT> do it
[08:08] <BoostedSS> crackerbox: how do I do that?
[08:08] <fbc> dxdt: any the purpose of that is?
[08:09] <fbc> dxdt: Any = and
[08:09] <Anlar> yeah, gobuntu will be the absolutely worst working distro in existence :D I'm glad they make, I love those projects
[08:09] <erUSUL> LuitvD: do not think so,
[08:09] <crackerbox> Boosted: System > Administration > Key Ring Manager
[08:09] <crackerbox> then you left click on the network icon and should be able to select your wireless access point
[08:09] <fbc> dxdt: Is someone going to crack down on ubuntu? if not, what's the point?
[08:10] <crackerbox> boosted: what type of security is it using WEP WPA WPA2?
[08:10] <dxdt> fbc: well it depends on your philosophy of software.  If you are one that really would prefer everything to be free as in completely open and such then gobuntu would be for you.  For example, the founder of GNU would not use Ubuntu as it is today because it isn't free enough.  It uses some restricted drivers and what not.  He and many others would not be ok with that.
[08:10] <LuitvD> in Debian, my HwAddr was twice the normal length by the way... no idea how that happened
[08:10] <Anlar> dxdt/fbc: yes. however he doesn't have anything fun in his live either.
[08:11] <BoostedSS> crackerbox: on the windows box I set it to wpa with preshared key and tkip and it connects
[08:11] <neogeo> hi. ich bin komplett neu in ubuntu. hab eben versucht zsnes zu installieren aus synaptic. ging auch aber der ton ist sehr schlecht. lann mir da jemand vielleicht helfen?
[08:11] <crackerbox> ok
[08:11] <BoostedSS> crackerbox: the ssid is not broadcasted
[08:11] <BoostedSS> ...
[08:12] <crackerbox> hmmm
[08:12] <dxdt> it is simply a matter of choice.  I mean if you want to know more visit gnu.org and also visit Mark's actual blog post about it.  It has been something they were considering for a while.  Now it is just happening.
[08:12] <crackerbox> basically, left click on the network icon... what are your options?
[08:12] <erUSUL> LuitvD: try rmmodding the driver and modprobing it again
[08:12] <rUiSu> how long should it take ubuntu to support reiserfs(released one, tested no bugs)?
[08:12] <fbc> dxdt: hmm.. I just want a computer that works... I could really give a rats a$$ whether some of the components where restricted, or not.  Who know's, maybe some day I might switch to gobuntu, after I verify that it''l play all my videos, and stuff.
[08:13] <LuitvD> erUSUL: and the driver is... r8168?
[08:13] <BoostedSS> crackerbox: well if I left click it, it will say wireless networks with my network in there, then below that it has connect to other, creat new, and manual config
[08:14] <KI4IKL> How do I force mount my external HD?
[08:14] <erUSUL> rUiSu: reiserfs is a dead fs with reiser heading to prison reiser4 is dire straits (good band btw) and noone wants to maintain reiserfs3.x anymore (suse dropped it)
[08:14] <LuitvD> stupid split
[08:14] <LuitvD> why does the server I connect to always split :(
[08:14] <crackerbox> boosted: so "my network in there" means it is showing your access point/router?
[08:14] <erUSUL> LuitvD: i guess us 'lsmod | less'
[08:15] <BoostedSS> crackerbox: no, it shows my ssid
[08:15] <LuitvD> erUSUL: i tried rmmod, and it worked... but now eth0 is gone :P
[08:15] <LuitvD> erUSUL: so now nothing works
[08:15] <crackerbox> boosted: ok very good... click on your SSID
[08:15] <oxigen> hi guys, how can i disable menu which popup when press alt + right mouse button?
[08:15] <erUSUL> LuitvD: modprobe it again
[08:15] <rUiSu> damn :P so i should try xfs... its anoter option, any reccomendations? other fs?
[08:15] <neogeo> can somebody help me fix sound in zsnes
[08:15] <LuitvD> erUSUL: and my switch still tells me it's a faulty device
[08:15] <erUSUL> LuitvD: that's the expected behaviour you uloaded the driver
[08:15] <erUSUL> unloaded*
[08:15] <crackerbox> boosted: it should prompt for your WPA key
[08:16] <erUSUL> rUiSu: xfs is a far better bet
[08:16] <BoostedSS> crackerbox: it doesn't
[08:16] <erUSUL> LuitvD: after modprobing it?
[08:16] <rUiSu> ok :) thnks erUSUL
[08:16] <ZoOl007> I just installed a vmware workstation 6 demo and it works flawlessly cool...
[08:16] <LuitvD> erUSUL: OMG, it works :D
[08:16] <ferronica> Can any one please tell me what is GTK 1 and GTK 2 ? :(
[08:16] <LuitvD> erUSUL: it does blink normally now anyways...
[08:16] <fatihciroglu>  hi , which key-combo must i use for desktop-change ?
[08:16] <rolfen> !xfs
[08:16] <ubot3> xfs is a high-performance journaling filesystem originally developped by Silicon Graphics for their IRIX OS. It is now fully supported by Linux so you can install Ubuntu on it if you wish. More info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFS
[08:16] <erUSUL> ferronica: UI widget libs used in gnome
[08:17] <BoostedSS> aahh
[08:17] <BoostedSS> what the
[08:17] <erUSUL> LuitvD: ;)
[08:17] <BoostedSS> This is the last thing I need to work before I can scrap windows :)
[08:17] <dxdt> fatihciroglu: usually ctrl+alt+arrow key by default
[08:17] <ferronica> erUSUL: please elaborate
[08:17] <LuitvD> erUSUL: YES, it works baby
[08:18] <LuitvD> erUSUL: thank you very much
[08:18] <LuitvD> erUSUL: but how the hell can reloading the module be helpful? :S
[08:18] <fatihciroglu> dxdt: thanks man. good evenings
[08:18] <LuitvD> erUSUL: doesn't make any sense at all
[08:18] <erUSUL> ferronica: they are the libs that draws the buttons the menus etc programers use them just as kde uses qt libs or in windows you use MFC or delphi or whatever....
[08:19] <NeXtDaY> i need a good audio convertor? from .rm to mp3s. any one, please
[08:19] <KI4IKL> what the hell?
[08:19] <LuitvD> and it's unsplit :)
[08:19] <kdean06> Is there anywhere I can get more information on Gobuntu?
[08:19] <crackerbox> boosted: did you already run keyring manager (System > Administration > Keyring Manager) and setup a new keyring (from the keyring manager GUI: Keyring > New Keyring... Keyring Name: "Default", Enter a Password, Confirm that Password, Click Create Key ring)
[08:19] <erUSUL> LuitvD: sometimes the hardware is not fully initializaded (by bios) when the machine is booting
[08:19] <LuitvD> KI4IKL: that's called "netsplit"
[08:19] <KI4IKL> heh.
[08:19] <rolfen> yeah what was that
[08:19] <KI4IKL> rolfen, netsplit
[08:20] <erUSUL> LuitvD: btw your wellcome XD
[08:20] <crackerbox> !netsplit
[08:20] <ubot3> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[08:20] <BoostedSS> crackerbox: no I named it something else
[08:20] <LuitvD> rolfen: that happens when one of the irc nodes splits from the other servers
[08:20] <BoostedSS> do I need the quotes around it?
[08:20] <crackerbox> no
[08:20] <Ghaz> this may sound a really noob question, but if i install some stuff with the package manager, how do i find where its installed to? :(
[08:20] <BoostedSS> k let me try :)
[08:20] <ferronica> erUSUL: okay ,can i make my own theme etc. ?
[08:21] <nalioth> Ghaz: everying installs into /usr/bin
[08:21] <NeXtDaY> i need a good audio convertor? from .rm to mp3s. any one, please
[08:21] <erUSUL> ferronica: yes you can. dunno how though ;)
[08:21] <nalioth> Ghaz: but you don't need to mess around in any dir outside of your homedir
[08:21] <LuitvD> erUSUL: only thing I'll need to fix now is bluetooth XD
[08:21] <Ghaz> so if i go look there they will be there?
[08:21] <Anlar> NeXtDaY: rm is perhaps the most problematic format of them all.. I'd attempt myself with vlc
[08:21] <rolfen> netsplit... ok
[08:21] <nalioth> Ghaz: why are you asking?
[08:21] <kdean06> Ghaz, You can find out which files are in which package by doing "dpkg -L packagename"
[08:22] <NeXtDaY> Anlar: how do i convert .rm to mp3s?
[08:22] <Ghaz> i installed some things to help me monitor cpu temp etc, and dunno where they are or how to run them :(
[08:22] <gnychis> I have ubuntu installed, but LPR is not working, whenever I try 'lpr file' nothing happens, i get the prompt back and nothing prints, anyone know how to begin debugging this?
[08:22] <nalioth> Ghaz: open a terminal and type their names
[08:22] <erUSUL> !sensors | Ghaz
[08:22] <ubot3> Ghaz: You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[08:22] <StoneNewt> hum so I guess that the security package server is having problems
[08:22] <dxdt> Ghaz: if they are the applet thingies then just click on the panel and add an applet and there is some stuffs.
[08:22] <LeJean> hey
[08:22] <ibt> NeXtDaY: i think mplayer can output a .rm to .wav and then you can just run your favorite encoder
[08:22] <nalioth> Ghaz: open a terminal and type 'man $appname'
[08:23] <ubotu> Ghaz: You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[08:23] <BoostedSS> Just says attempting to join, but never does crackerbox
[08:23] <mhz`> for setting dcc ports in xchat...do you gotta go above the 1024 range b/c of how linux is?
[08:23] <younghacker> anyone know where i can get games for ZSNES at?
[08:23] <erUSUL> LuitvD: never used bluetooth in linux myself...
[08:23] <NeXtDaY> ibt: :) good idea but what a waste of time.. why i can't convert them to mp3 directly?
[08:23] <mhz`> ahh, screw it..i'll just pick a higher range
[08:23] <Ghaz> right, will have a play, thank you
[08:23] <LuitvD> erUSUL: I have... but not with a device that can be shut down power-level ;)
[08:24] <LuitvD> erUSUL: (laptop... gah)
[08:24] <younghacker> anyone know where i can download games for ZSNES ?
[08:24] <ibt> NeXtDaY: because realaudio doesn't want you to. write a simple bash script
[08:24] <Anlar> younghacker: ask google, not here. that may not be legal.
[08:25] <Ghaz> lol, turns out there are no sensors on my MB, or ive bodged it
[08:25] <erUSUL> younghacker: no warez here
[08:25] <younghacker> =@
[08:25] <mhz`> ugh, stupid wireless
[08:25] <mhz`> that shit disappeared
[08:25] <NeXtDaY> ibt:i see. ok thanks :)
[08:25] <mongo> i've been having unusually slow download speeds, am i to assume that's a result of server issues?
[08:25] <younghacker> smh
[08:25] <ferronica> Could not download all repository indexes.   The repository might be no longer available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and the correct writing of the repository address in the preferences.
[08:25] <mongo> download speeds for updates that is
[08:25] <younghacker> ok i have another question then
[08:25] <ianmcorvidae> What's the command for counting the lines in a file?
[08:25] <PriceChild> ferronica, try it again
[08:25] <ibt> erUSUL: he probably meant homebrew
[08:26] <younghacker> lets say i have the ROMS already right,, but there on windows,,, does it matter,, ZSNES should still play them regardless right?
[08:26] <FruitieX> younghacker: SNES Roms are legal if you own the real cartidge
[08:26] <ferronica> PriceChild: okay
[08:26] <erUSUL> ferronica: security servers are heavy loaded today try again tomorrow
[08:26] <tempspace> I'm using the networkmanager pptp client, and in the syslog, I get this when I connect
[08:26] <tempspace> Jul 11 14:23:36 will-laptop NetworkManager: <WARNING>^I nm_vpn_manager_activate_vpn_connection (): nm_vpn_manager_activate_vpn_connection(): no currently active network device, won't activate VPN.
[08:26] <younghacker> i know,, I have the software on XP but i want it on my Linux
[08:26] <PriceChild> FruitieX, either way, not a discussion for thsi channel sorry.
[08:26] <FruitieX> younghacker: no it doesn't matter if you can access the files from windows
[08:26] <crackerbox> ok here comes a hard question: while trying to get curl-FTP-fs (curlftpfs) to work in feisty, I am being effected by the well known bug in feisty's version of libcurl.  According to this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=423899&highlight=curlftpfs you can compile the new version of libcurl (from gusty repo) and then link some other lib... can some one help me out?
[08:26] <FruitieX> PriceChild: Yes, I know
[08:26] <tempspace> any ideas on how to make network manager use an interface that is manually configured
[08:27] <younghacker> no thats not what i mean,,, can i like upload them from my windows box and should they work in my ZSNES installation on linux
[08:27] <younghacker> just the games
[08:27] <mhz`> hmm, anyone familiar with the network manager...before it used to list Wired Netowrk and Wireless Network
[08:27] <ibt> younghacker: yeah, it should play them. also, this has nothing to do with ubuntu
[08:27] <mhz`> now it just lists wired..any ideas?
[08:27] <younghacker> exactly,,, but zsnes is a program on ubuntu
[08:27] <younghacker> =)
[08:27] <younghacker> brb
[08:27] <FruitieX> younghacker: yes they will work...
[08:27] <younghacker> thank you Fruitie
[08:27] <FruitieX> np ;)
[08:27] <BoostedSS> Anything anyone else can think of?  (wpa-psk not broadcasting the ssid?)
[08:28] <crackerbox> specifically the part that is giving me problems is the post: " PS Dont forget to enable gnutls while configuring curl, and to update libcurl-gnutls links in your /usr/lib"
[08:28] <crackerbox> boosted: tell your router to broadcast its SSID
[08:28] <Anlar> BoostedSS: is the ap hidden or is it broadcasting? I have noticed sometimes connecting hidden aps is problematic for some unknown reason
[08:28] <FruitieX> Any ideas why ddclient can't read my IP?
[08:28] <ibt> younghacker: that doesn't make #ubuntu support for all applications installable by ubuntu
[08:28] <BoostedSS> Anlar:  it is hidden :(
[08:29] <NeXtDaY> !gimp
[08:29] <ubot3> gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information.
[08:29] <ubotu> gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information.
[08:29] <younghacker> what is that a delayed reaction
[08:29] <younghacker> i was helped already thank you
[08:29] <Anlar> BoostedSS: okay.. well, the fact that it is hidden does not improve the real security at all, so..
[08:29] <FruitieX> lol
[08:29] <BoostedSS> Anlar: I know, but my boss thinks it does lol
[08:30] <BoostedSS> I am going to make it broadcast for a bit
[08:30] <rolfen> anyone ever encountered this:
[08:30] <rolfen> rolf@ubuntu:/media$ ls -l|grep network
[08:30] <rolfen> drwxr-xr-x 3 rolf rolf 4096 2007-07-11 18:30 network
[08:30] <rolfen> rolf@ubuntu:/media$ sudo ls -l|grep network
[08:30] <rolfen> ?--------- ? ?    ?       ?                ? network
[08:30] <FruitieX> lol no
[08:30] <erUSUL> !paste > rolfen
[08:30] <fevel> when I installed ubuntu it found my vista partition but mounted readonly, can someone explain to me how to change this issue?
[08:30] <Anlar> BoostedSS: it seems like the wpa_supplicant couldn't detect something properly if it is not broadcasting, but I never really quite understood that
[08:31] <Anlar> fevel: install ntfs-3g and read up a little bit on it and ubuntu
[08:31] <BoostedSS> Anlar: thanks, I'm going to try to broadcast it
[08:31] <gnychis> does anyone know what package i can find lpr-cups in?  Its not in cupsys
[08:31] <FruitieX> what about this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29515/
[08:31] <fevel> Anlar: I thought 7.04 came with ntfs support
[08:31] <thiru> quit
[08:31] <crackerbox> fevel: it has read support
[08:31] <ojeda> kkkkkk
[08:31] <Anlar> fevel: it's the old driver, not the 3rd generation one that can really write as well
[08:32] <Anlar> fevel: you CAN enable write support on that shipped one as well, but it will sometimes fail the operations
[08:32] <LuitvD> erUSUL: so for WiFi I just rmmod the current driver, and then ndiswrapper the proprietary one?
[08:32] <mzanfardino> !lamp
[08:32] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[08:32] <fevel> Anlar: I see...is it possible to defrag the partition from within ubuntu? so I can resize it with gparted
[08:33] <erUSUL> LuitvD: if you want to use ndis instead of the native driver you must rmmod the driver and blacklist it so it is no loaded again across reboots
[08:33] <Anlar> fevel: ntfs-tools, ntfsutils or something like that has afaik a defrag utility
[08:33] <mzanfardino> fevel: depends on your fs, but most here would suggest that you needn't defrag a proper fs
[08:33] <peder_> How do I run a .deb in terminal?
[08:33] <erUSUL> LuitvD: add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[08:33] <mzanfardino> peder_: dpkg -i <debfile>.deb
[08:34] <erUSUL> peder_: dpkg -i (other question is if you should)
[08:34] <LuitvD> erUSUL: as soon as I can find which one ;) thanks mate
[08:34] <erUSUL> LuitvD: no problem
[08:34] <fevel> mzanfardino: I get an error when trying to resize it with gparted
[08:34] <LuitvD> erUSUL: add to blacklist and reboot you mean right?
[08:34] <LuitvD> erUSUL: because just rmmodding it doesn't work :P
[08:35] <fevel> mzanfardino: it told me to check the filesystem for errors and if posible fix them
[08:35] <Vletmix> How do I get php to show 'compile' errors? my error_reporting is E_ALL at the moment, but I just get a blank page when there's a syntax error
[08:35] <LuitvD> erUSUL: (module in use notification)
[08:35] <mzanfardino> fevel: what is the file system you are trying to resize?
[08:35] <ibt> peder_: what do you mean by 'run'?
[08:35] <Asad2005> nvidia go 7200 problem starting xserver no matching device section for pci:0:10:03 error while lspci shows busid as 05:00.0 any help
[08:35] <peder_> ibt: execute, but I have already done it.
[08:36] <ibt> peder_: it isn't executable.
[08:36] <Vletmix> oh, wtf am I asking php questions in #ubuntu :) duuuh
[08:36] <NigelS_> peder_: a .deb is an installation file
[08:36] <gilo2> has anyone used IPMI for lights out management?
[08:36] <erUSUL> LuitvD: add to blacklist and reboot you mean right? yes modules have interdependencies and sometimes you have to rrmod them in the correct order
[08:36] <rolfen> Vletmix you can ask that in ##php (but i think you need to be registered to go there). I know what you're talking about, i had this prob long time ago, i think it's something in php.ini
[08:36] <gilo2> !ipmi
[08:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ipmi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:36] <Anlar> fevel: you can mount a dirty partition, just use force tag (-f or something) in the commands.. it's mostly aok, but if the partition editor tells you that you better obey
[08:36] <mzanfardino> fevel: are you talking about resizing an NTFS, FAT, FAT32, ext2, ext3, ReiserFS, what?
[08:37] <Vletmix> rolfen: yeah, just had the wrong tab open :)
[08:38] <kbrooks> ping
[08:38] <kbrooks> um
[08:38] <kbrooks> need to ask
[08:38] <Prez_> let's see if someone can give me a pointer... I am running laterst ubuntu stable... when running default latest Ubuntu kernel I can suspend to disk, Fn + F12 on my thinkpad X60s.  Fn + F4 (Suspend to RAM) does nothing.  Now I am running 2.6.22 kernel and I can sleep but, suspend to disk now does nothing!  any ideas?
[08:39] <rolfen> Vletmix: php.ini : display_errors = On
[08:39] <kbrooks> how do u fix the progress bar prob in 7.04
[08:39] <sung> hi
[08:39] <kbrooks> whereby the orange isnt shown
[08:39] <sung> glasgow
[08:39] <sung> UK
[08:40] <erUSUL> Prez_: sadly that's the state of suspend/power managment in linux it is a question of luck that depends on your specific hardware/kernel combination... :S
[08:40] <sung> emmm
[08:40] <sung> any one in room
[08:41] <Grifer> hi! how do I make fd0 show itself as A: in WINE?

[08:41] <ubotu> sung: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:41] <shwouchk> For some reason I can't connect via ndiswrapper to a wpa2 network - only to open ones... why?
[08:41] <NigelS_> sung: at least 1144 people and one bot in fact
[08:41] <Grifer> duh.. I need to make a Win98SE bootdisk if anyone wonders
[08:42] <mhz`-> i wish they made mirc into *nix:/
[08:42] <mhz`-> i miss it and it sucks with wine
[08:42] <erUSUL> Grifer: download one from internet and use 'dd'
[08:42] <mhz`-> a win98se bootdisk..sheesh
[08:42] <mhz`-> that's going back
[08:43] <shwouchk> For some reason I can't connect via ndiswrapper to a wpa2 network - only to open ones... why?
[08:43] <gnychis> anyone familiar with this error try to print using lpr?  lpr: cannot open /var/spool/lpd/hplj4l/.seq: No such file or directory
[08:43] <Superjew9020> just recently everytime i run su it returns setuid:operation not permitted what does that meen and how do i fix it??
[08:43] <Grifer> erUSUL they're .exe files
[08:44] <Borzo> bbl
[08:44] <Grifer> afaik they need to be driven from C: and then they install themselves in A:
[08:44] <NigelS> shwouchk: possibly that function isn't supported with the ndiswrapper/driver combination you're using - ndiswrapper does not give full control of the hardware in every case
[08:44] <NigelS> shwouchk: eliminate that first as a possibility
[08:44] <family> is there any way to make qemu boot my NTFS partition instead of a hard drive image file?
[08:44] <osxdude|desktop> brb
[08:45] <timtux> does anyone got a pkg for flock 0.9.0?
[08:45] <Anlar> family: yes.
[08:45] <shwouchk> NigelS: how? the stock bcm43xx driver doesnt connect even to open networks
[08:45] <family> Anlar: do you know how?
[08:45] <NigelS> shwouchk: check out the info page for your hardware and ndiswrapper
[08:45] <Anlar> family: just give the correct command line parameter I guess.. I don't know the specifics, but it should be doable
[08:45] <Anlar> family: give the partition device as the image file
[08:45] <Superjew9020>  just recently everytime i run su it returns setuid:operation not permitted what does that meen and how do i fix it??
[08:46] <fevel> Anlar: thanks for the help...ntfs-3g works fine
[08:46] <fevel> Anlar: all I have to do know is learn how to resize
[08:46] <vanisher_> guestion, my fresh ubuntu installations freezes sometimes with this message: Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason a0 on CPU 0.
[08:47] <Shiverz> could anyone tell me what bash exactly is?
[08:48] <compengi> !bash
[08:48] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[08:48] <KI4IKL> now can I force mount my external hd?
[08:48] <palomer> hello
[08:48] <Shiverz> sorry, let me rephrase
[08:48] <sung> emmm
[08:48] <capiira_> something like command prompt from windows
[08:48] <palomer> I keep getting these errors when compiling something:
[08:48] <alexIdoia> hi I would a keyboard shortcut to close the tray of my CD player, is that possible ?
[08:48] <palomer> error: 'snd_seq_create_simple_port' was not declared in this scope
[08:48] <jamman> KI4IKL, yes, should be a -f option
[08:48] <Grifer> erUSUL what about dd?
[08:48] <palomer> I think I need the alsa midi headers
[08:48] <KI4IKL> umm...as in fstab?
[08:49] <compengi> Shiverz, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash <--- this could help
[08:49] <KI4IKL> sorry, i'm not knowledgable inmounting
[08:49] <jamman> KI4IKL, no, but maybe. from terminal.
[08:49] <Shiverz> Bash is a C interpreter that let's users run executables and pipes those results in a text-only window?
[08:49] <mhz`-> how's the sex life then KI4IKL :)
[08:49] <mhz`-> /dev/null
[08:49] <kbrooks> Shiverz, no
[08:49] <mhz`-> ?
[08:49] <KI4IKL> lmfao mhz`-
[08:49] <NigelS> Shiverz: bash is not a c interpreter no
[08:49] <KI4IKL> not what I mean...
[08:50] <NigelS> Shiverz: bash is a shell, the bourne again shell
[08:50] <alesan> hi
[08:50] <r00tintheb0x> anyone else getting this in their logs?
[08:50] <r00tintheb0x> Jul 11 11:34:44 mkinglinux gconfd (root-6093): GConf server is not in use, shutting down.
[08:50] <alesan> I have this system with 4GB ram but I can only see 3GB
[08:50] <alexIdoia> hi do anyone know what would be the command to close the tray of my CD drive ?
[08:50] <Shiverz> yeah, well that shell was written in some programming language yes?
[08:50] <Shiverz> it interprets commands
[08:50] <r00tintheb0x> alexIdoia, there isnt one.
[08:50] <alesan> what should I do in your opinion? it's a dual "dual" xeon
[08:50] <alexIdoia> r00tintheb0x: really that is not possible to do it ?
[08:51] <capiira_> bash is a text based text field (aka. terminal) where you can type commands and execute them
[08:51] <r00tintheb0x> alexIdoia, not that i know of. I know "eject cdrom" will open the tray. You can reboot the system and it'll probably close it.
[08:51] <strider> how are you gentlemen , all your base are belong to us
[08:51] <jamman> KI4IKL, more like, "mount -f ext3 --force /dev/hda2 /media/place/to/mount"
[08:51] <NigelS> Shiverz: your terminology is errant; an interpreter of a language interprets a language without that language needing to be the one it was written in yes?  a shell is an interpretive environment but if you want to test this by writing a c program and see if it executes the text file be my guest :)
[08:51] <shwouchk> NigelS: on the ubuntu site?
[08:52] <NigelS> shwouchk: I would suggest ndiswrapper and google
[08:52] <mhz`-> Shiverz, you can create bash scripts by putting in numerous commands that you'd input manually
[08:52] <miscma1> I lost my connection.     Was my previous question sent?
[08:52] <erUSUL> Grifer: are you trying to use images from www.bootdisk.com?
[08:52] <mhz`-> into 1 script for execution
[08:52] <dv_> hello
[08:52] <shwouchk> NigelS: well, I saw no mention of wpa, so it could be both ways
[08:52] <NigelS> miscma1: no
[08:52] <dv_> how is it possible to install fonts in ubuntu?
[08:52] <dv_> I downloaded some truetype fonts, but cannot install them
[08:52] <miscma1> ok I'll ask again
[08:52] <mhz`-> windows fonts, dv?
[08:52] <NigelS> shwouchk: what's your chipset?
[08:53] <dv_> no
[08:53] <strider> i'd like to write a script that kills compiz , launches an app (given as an argument) and when it quits restarts compiz
[08:53] <alexIdoia> r00tintheb0x: no there is actually a way: eject -t
[08:53] <mhz`-> why you wanna kill compiz? it's sexy
[08:53] <miscma1> I have lost my cube.  I went to lunch and when I came back, I unlocked my screen and my cube was gone.  Is there somewhere I can look for errors?  some common problem feisty users are experiencing?
[08:53] <alexIdoia> but how would I do to put in on a key ?
[08:53] <NigelS> dv_: copy to the fonts folder /usr/share/fonts etc and run fc-cache
[08:53] <strider> openGL apps runs badly when compiz i on
[08:54] <strider> i only have a ATI mobility 9000 ;)
[08:54] <jo3nix> having a problem w/ nslookup, anyone seen this mesg: nslookup: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libisc.so.11: invalid ELF header
[08:54] <Shiverz> NigelS: Well, C can read input strings and display output strings from other programs. It seems I'm slightly confused here :)
[08:54] <shwouchk> NigelS: bcm43xx
[08:54] <palomer> hey guys
[08:54] <strider> well anyway here's what i've done for Quake3
[08:54] <palomer> I have an app which needs asoundlib
[08:54] <strider> killall compiz.real
[08:54] <strider> /home/strider/Games/ioquake3/ioquake3
[08:54] <strider> compiz --replace
[08:54] <mhz`-> Shiverz, are you trying to use them together or figure out which would be best for a partiticular task?
[08:55] <strider> works fine
[08:55] <palomer> asoundlib.h isn't on my system
[08:55] <palomer> what gives?
[08:55] <Shiverz> NigelS: Since bash commands are programs in itself from what I understand.
[08:55] <NigelS> Shiverz: look up what an interpreter is and then what a compiler does; C is not an interpreted language in the sense of java,c# etc
[08:55] <mhz`-> most are, awk, grep..etc
[08:55] <jo3nix> having a problem w/ nslookup, anyone seen this mesg: nslookup: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libisc.so.11: invalid ELF header
[08:55] <mase> jesus christ, the updating is going at 10-30kb/s MAX, whats wrong with UBUNTU?
[08:55] <strider> but how do i replace the second line with an argument ?
[08:55] <NigelS> Shiverz: the execution of a binary is not the same as interpretation
[08:55] <mhz`-> yeah, i'm updating to mase :/
[08:55] <jamman> same.
[08:55] <mase> its killing me
[08:55] <miscma1> mase: the servers are having issues... read the channel topic
[08:55] <mhz`-> strider, like $2?
[08:56] <mase> oic.
[08:56] <beni> Hey I want to install U:Server on a former win95 box, but it doesnt start from the cd (Yes i changed the boot order). Is there any way to "kill" win95 so my disk will start? The win95 bootup always interrupts the start from cd
[08:56] <strider> hum yeah i'm going to try this
[08:56] <Shiverz> NigelS: Like for instance, a LISP interpreter was written in C, it interprets LISP syntax.
[08:56] <mhz`-> you can declare the other option as a variable
[08:56] <mhz`-> then call it
[08:56] <amidaniel> beni: Go into your bios and disable booting from hd
[08:56] <NigelS> Shiverz: yes, bash interprets bash syntax; it's like that
[08:56] <mon^rch> is there some way I can map my multimedia keys (taht currently do nothing) to work with amarok... ie: I want my play/pause ffwd buttons to work
[08:57] <NigelS> Shiverz: it's only one of many shells, like tsh and plain old sh but has more functionality and has become the one most use
[08:57] <NigelS> shwouchk: and which driver is ndiswrapper loading?
[08:57] <Shiverz> NigelS: Bash isn't a language.
[08:57] <mhz`-> strider, homedir="`cd`"
[08:57] <shwouchk> NigelS: the driver available from dell.com
[08:58] <Shiverz> NigelS: Take for example the command "ls -lh", ok?
[08:58] <dxdt> beni: that isn't the problem.  I mean think about it, if it is already starting windows, it is already reading the hard drive which means that it isn't booting off of the cd.  For whatever reason.  What happens if you change the boot order such that it only boots off of cd and not hard drive at all?  That should be able to be done in the bios.  I would recheck those settings and see what happens then.  I guess what I'm saying is, you don't wa
[08:58] <gnychis> how can i regenerate /etc/cups/cups.conf ? I deleted /etc/cups and want to rebuilt it, which is not done after doing another apt-get on cupsys
[08:58] <mhz`-> Shiverz, i'm still trying to figure out what you're trying to accomplish
[08:58] <Shiverz> NigelS: The Bash commands ls is in itself a program.
[08:58] <NigelS> Shiverz: a moment ago you thought bash was a C interpreter so please don't try to lecture me on what it does :) checkout bash.org and the wikipedia page
[08:59] <JasonF> Are the "server issues" the reason why breezy sources are 404'ing?
[08:59] <dxdt> lol what bash.org is a quote site NigelS
[08:59] <beni> dxdt: it first shows that the cd is loaded then "Starting Win95" .. I'll burn it again i think its some File System error, the CD is kinda damaged
[08:59] <strider> gr8 it works ;)
[08:59] <JasonF> Or has support been dropped?
[08:59] <Shiverz> NigelS: Sorry, I'm merely to understand what it is exactly ;)
[08:59] <Shiverz> *trying
[08:59] <beni> amidaniel: thanks, i did it, helped to located the problem
[08:59] <EchoBinary> i think bash.org would be perfect for learning
[08:59] <NigelS> dxdt: ;)
[09:00] <dxdt> beni: well there you go.  If you think the cd is damaged then it is probably damaged so it can't boot from it and then it goes to the next thing which is your hd
[09:00] <dxdt> I'm soooo sleepy

[09:07] <LuitvD> once more, thanks erUSUL  ;)
[09:07] <Marotte_> Alsamodularsynth (ams) works fine with the jack driver but the sound is simply awful with alsa..
[09:07] <capiira> sure mase
[09:07] <Grifer> mkfs.vfat: bad blocks before data-area: cannot make fs
[09:07] <Grifer> mkfs.vfat: bad blocks before data-area: cannot make fs
[09:07] <Grifer> oops

[09:08] <Marotte_> /exec apt-cache show beryl
[09:08] <Marotte_> I forgot I was in gaim :)
[09:08] <osxdude|laptop> Marotte: turn down the volume
[09:08] <Marotte_> let me try
[09:08] <dxdt> squee: with samba.  The command with samba installed is something like smb -M machinename or something
[09:08] <gnychis> is cupsys suppsoed to install /etc/cups/cupsd.conf ???
[09:09] <dxdt> the rest you can probably find with google.com/linux
[09:09] <mroc> has anyone else had trouble connecting to security.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>) today for updates?  it been hanging on that all day for me.
[09:09] <dxdt> mroc: I've seen other people mention it earlier.  unless that was you lol.
[09:09] <GeekMaster1> Does ANYONE here use EasyBCD?
[09:09] <kbrooks> squee, um
[09:10] <kbrooks> squee, it's some magic. let me look
[09:10] <ianmcorvidae> mroc: Yes, everyone's trying to update, it's very bogged down.
[09:10] <Turbooster> hi there
[09:10] <ianmcorvidae> mroc: Try again later if you don't desperately need the updates.
[09:10] <mroc> wasn't me.  thanks for the info.  i'll try later.
[09:10] <Turbooster> how can I measure the wlanspeed of my USB stick?
[09:10] <Marotte_> same issue, I set the sound in alsamixer, even with 10% I get a lot of click
[09:10] <GeekMaster1> Does ANYONE here use EasyBCD?
[09:11] <Marotte_> when I say a lot, it's many, many, many
[09:11] <deCon> does anyone know why I may be having ALSA sharing issues? I can't seem to get audio in more than 1 app (at a time, or in linear order)
[09:11] <compengi> mroc, oh.. there is an update?
[09:11] <somenoob> whats the console command for deleting a file?
[09:11] <erUSUL> !dmix
[09:11] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[09:11] <compengi> somafm, rm
[09:11] <capiira> did you set the default audio output to alsa?
[09:11] <Marotte_> deCon: I think alsa cannot share audio, you have to use jack for this no ?
[09:11] <ianmcorvidae> somenoob: rm

[09:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wlan - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[09:14] <perlmonkey> kbrooks: ya I have SSH, is that an easy process?

[09:15] <perlmonkey> I need X
[09:15] <lite-X> cant do this
[09:15] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, ssh -X server, but be sure you enable X forwarding on the server and/or client
[09:15] <lite-X> i cant install buntu
[09:15] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, HOWEVER!!!
[09:15] <perlmonkey> kbrooks: how do you enable X forwarding?
[09:15] <perlmonkey> ok
[09:15] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, there is a catch to this.

[09:16] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, it forwards from the server to the client
[09:16] <Upsal> apt-get says that i have to insert data into /cdrom, but i have no cd-drive, and i want to use a mounted ISO image, how can i do that?
[09:16] <deCon> marotte_, i dont have that option, esd, my regular sound card..but not that one
[09:16] <perlmonkey> ok
[09:16] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, it does not run X11 on the server, only on the client. so no 3D
[09:16] <lite-X> always try to install ubunto and it say somthing like root
[09:16] <lite-X> i need to set up a root
[09:16] <perlmonkey> thats ok
[09:16] <lite-X> dont no how to do it
[09:16] <lite-X> any help
[09:16] <lite-X> ?
[09:17] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, you have to enable X11 forwarding in the configuration
[09:17] <perlmonkey> kbrooks: when you say "server" do I need to install/run something on the remote system I am connecting to?
[09:17] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, yes.
[09:17] <erUSUL> !root | lite-X
[09:17] <ubotu> lite-X: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[09:17] <Pici> lite-X: root is just the base location where it is installed.
[09:17] <perlmonkey> kbrooks: what is it I need to install?
[09:17] <dxdt> lite-X: you are annoying the channel.  Ask a question, a good question and then be patient.  Furthermore, you don't need root, you have sudo, but if you still really want root you can change it.  Listen to the bot ubotu
[09:17] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, openssh-server
[09:17] <osxdude|desktop> I changed my root password. (evil laugh)
[09:17] <perlmonkey> I have sshd installed
[09:17] <perlmonkey> so I'm good to go?
[09:18] <dxdt> perlmonkey: I believe in the sshd config file there is awesome a setting that you need to change to a "yes" or somethignl ike that
[09:18] <lite-X> dam confuz
[09:18] <kbrooks> dxdt, the change to root was removed from the wiki page, so please dont endorse that here.
[09:18] <perlmonkey> I just do ssh -X <IP_ADDRESS> (server IP) ?
[09:18] <Carleton91> How do I check what version of Ubuntu I have?

[09:19] <Pici> dxdt: you can request things be changed on the bot.  Just msg it with something like: no fact is something else. it will be forwared to the ops for moderation.
[09:19] <kbrooks> dxdt, only the ops have access to the bot.
[09:19] <Zee1ot> what is the best way to mount a remote drive?
[09:19] <dxdt> was it removed by choice or does someone just need to write a small blurb about it.  Cause I can do that.  I got spare time right now.
[09:19] <Pici> dxdt: ie: !no root is <reply> blah blah blah blah
[09:19] <lite-X> i mean when i install ubunto on my harddrive it tells me somthing like root like i have to install it on root and i dont no what you mean by sudo
[09:19] <perlmonkey> X11Forwarding yes
[09:19] <Sonic11> Ubunto xD
[09:20] <kbrooks> dxdt, no, it was removed by choice and for good reason.
[09:20] <kbrooks> dxdt, only sudo is supported on ubuntu.
[09:20] <perlmonkey> so now, to get the X forwarding, can I just open a shell on the client side during an existing X session or must I exit X first on client?
[09:20] <Pici> lite-X: What version are you trying to install?
[09:20] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, former
[09:20] <perlmonkey> ok
[09:20] <perlmonkey> thanks
[09:20] <dxdt> I was just curious.  A lot of people hate the sudo thing that is why it seems to me like they should keep it or even better keep it up but explain their mysterious good reasons letting the user make the choice.
[09:21] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, if the client has 3D hardware, then 3D is okay
[09:21] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, and will work, but with significant lag unless done over a LAN
[09:21] <Pici> dxdt: the information about root/sudo is in the sudo factoid.
[09:21] <capiira> hmm anyone know if there is a way to configure the solarwinds screensaver by editing a config ?
[09:21] <dxdt> oh.  so it all just needs relinked and stuffs?
[09:22] <magnetron> !sudo > dxdt
[09:22] <kbrooks> dxdt, they shoul not do root, because it makes things hard for the user.
[09:22] <perlmonkey> kbrooks: it didnt work :( I did "ssh -X <IP_ADDRESS>.5" and it connected to the server machine but just returned the shell prompt on server, no X session
[09:22] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, confused.
[09:22] <Zee1ot> I am trying to mount a drive with sshfs but it asks for a password and I dont know which
[09:22] <Carleton91> lite-X, one way to log in as root is to go to System > Administration > Users and Groups, then click root, properties and set a password.  Next you have to go to System > Administration > Login Window > Security then check the box that says allow local administrator to login
[09:22] <dxdt> kbrooks: I disagree with you.  You should inform the user and let them choose.  Not just remove the page because you think it is better for them.
[09:22] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, echo DISPLAY
[09:22] <Pici> perlmonkey: fyi, you have a few too many octets in that ip address.
[09:22] <perlmonkey> ok
[09:22] <kbrooks> dxdt, really?
[09:22] <magnetron> perlmonkey: it will return a shell prompt, but let you run X apps. try running gaim
[09:22] <Pici> !offtopic  | dxdt
[09:22] <ubotu> dxdt: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:23] <dxdt> absolutely.  it is all about choice in the gnu world
[09:23] <root__> someone explain this to me http://img353.imageshack.us/img353/2761/screenshotmq1.png
[09:23] <beni> Hello guys, My old 200Mhz box is just too old to install Ubuntu-Server / Desktop (It doesnt like the cd's filesystem). Is there any other linux distro which could maybe run on this PC? It is still running Win95..
[09:23] <capiira> i would like to change the solarwinds screensaver from random to a fixed version
[09:23] <kbrooks> dxdt, not for new users.
[09:23] <perlmonkey> oh right I see
[09:23] <root__> beni: gentoo
[09:23] <kbrooks> dxdt, new users shouldn't have too much choice. it is very confusing for them
[09:23] <gnomefreak> kbrooks and dv_ please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:23] <gnomefreak> dxdt: ^^
[09:23] <perlmonkey> I misunderstood
[09:24] <ccoffey> I'm not looking for some to walk me through this, but before i begin, is it possible to install ubuntu onto Fakeraid, and lvm?
[09:24] <perlmonkey> I thought it would make the present X session on the server appear on my screen here, all the existing open windows etc
[09:24] <beni> root__: why gentoo?
[09:24] <Pici> capiira: Unfortunately, gnome-screensaver doesnt allow you to change its settings at this time.  I dont agree with the decision to remove configuring so dont complain ;)
[09:24] <kbrooks> perlmonkey, summarised: 3D will work (with significant lag unless done over a LAN) if the client has a 3D card.
[09:24] <magnetron> perlmonkey: unfortunately not. but try to run nautilus
[09:24] <mateiru> hello
[09:25] <capiira> pici there is sure a config somewhere
[09:25] <mateiru> could somebody help me with setting up my wireless conection
[09:25] <kbrooks> dxdt, go to #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to debate further
[09:25] <mateiru> ?
[09:26] <magnetron> mateiru: welcome. feel free to ask any questions about wireless in Ubuntu.
[09:26] <fevel> can someone help me with my locale settings? in Brazil there is a letter c with a coma under it but in my ubuntu it appears over it ''
[09:26] <capiira> i know solarwinds have different themes and i would lkike to set a different theme
[09:26] <fevel> can someone help me fix this issue?
[09:26] <mateiru> thanks
[09:26] <ubuntu> are you real
[09:26] <ubuntu> ??
[09:26] <ubuntu> or bots
[09:26] <vox754> fevel, you probably have the wrong keyboard setting.
[09:26] <PriceChild> ubuntu, most are real.
[09:26] <dxdt> all bots.  But very smart bots.
[09:26] <kbrooks> magnetron, are you in #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[09:26] <beni> we're bots
[09:26] <gnomefreak> ubuntu: little bit of both
[09:26] <magnetron> ubuntu, we are real allright
[09:26] <magnetron> kbrooks: yes
[09:27] <imbecile> where in my filesystem would i find my external drives? im trying to add them to amarok
[09:27] <erUSUL> fevel: Sistema>Soporte de idiomas (linguaxe) ?? System>Language support
[09:27] <shwouchk> NigelS: any ideas?
[09:27] <mateiru> i have a laptop and i can connect to my router through the wireless connection. However i have no internet connection. When i check in the network settings a wireless connection is listed how ever when i did a ifconfig i saw no wlan
[09:27] <erUSUL> fevel: System>Preferences>keyboard
[09:27] <NigelS> ubuntu: I'm strictly speaking an ajunct of unimatrix 0x5A but retain some humanity
[09:28] <ubuntu> can you speak german too?
[09:28] <root__> beni: its small
[09:28] <root__> debian too
[09:28] <mateiru> ?
[09:29] <gnomefreak> ubuntu: did you try #ubuntu-de for german
[09:29] <Upsal> apt-get says that i have to insert data into /cdrom, but i have no cd-drive, and i want to use a mounted ISO image, how can i do that?
[09:29] <gnomefreak> Upsal: disable the cdrom repo in /etc/apt/sources.list and enable the internet repos
[09:30] <ubuntu> thx
[09:30] <Carleton91> how do I make it so I don't see when people leave or join the room?
[09:30] <ubuntu> and bye
[09:30] <Carleton91> I'm using Gaim
[09:30] <dxdt> Upsal: if you have an internet connection, the easiest way is to do sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the cdrom repo with a # sign.  Then it should use the itnernet.
[09:30] <MegaUbuntuNoob> does someone know a good burner
[09:30] <Upsal> ok thx
[09:30] <beni> I'm assuming my system is no i386, how can i determine which chipset it is?
[09:30] <ccoffey> MegaUbuntuNoob: software?
[09:30] <dxdt> MegaUbuntuNoob: I like k3b personally.  Other people liek Gnome Baker
[09:30] <ianmcorvidae> beni: uname -a
[09:30] <gnomefreak> Carleton91: it depends on the client most of the time /help will help you or ask in #freenode
[09:30] <dxdt> beni: what processor you have?
[09:30] <MegaUbuntuNoob> kb3
[09:30] <beni> dxdt: I dunno Pentium 1 200Mhz
[09:31] <dxdt> beni: that is above i386
[09:31] <dxdt> you should be fien
[09:31] <Luca> hi all
[09:31] <jkmz52> is there a channel for apt?
[09:31] <MegaUbuntuNoob> k3b plz
[09:31] <Luca> how can i access my ubuntu files from windows vista ?
[09:31] <gnomefreak> jkmz52: not really what do you need
[09:31] <ianmcorvidae> Luca: You'll need to find an ext3 extension for windows.
[09:31] <gnomefreak> Luca: ask in ##windows
[09:31] <ianmcorvidae> But yes.
[09:31] <ccoffey> Luca: if it's ext3, you can use the driver from www.fs-driver.org
[09:32] <MegaUbuntuNoob> whats k3b code?
[09:32] <Luca> ccoffey tried but it doesnt work with the 500 gb disk i have
[09:32] <dxdt> MegaUbuntuNoob: no, k3b is the name of a burning program
[09:32] <MegaUbuntuNoob> yeah i know
[09:32] <b0ne> Luca: http://google.com/search?q=file+sharing+windows+ubuntu
[09:32] <MegaUbuntuNoob> but you got to istall it by a code
[09:32] <Carleton91> How do I enable universe repos?
[09:32] <gnomefreak> !universe | Carleton91
[09:32] <ubotu> Carleton91: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[09:33] <jkmz52> I jsut installed ubuntu form a live cd that is about six months old and i'm trying to apt-get packages which i know are on apt since i have used apt to get them on other computers and i get this E: couldn't find package
[09:33] <ccoffey> Luca: yeah, it's hit and miss a bit, works fine on a 30gb portable i use, but not my / or /home dir. you'll just have to make a shared fat32 partition or something
[09:33] <dxdt> MegaUbuntuNoob: oh.  then I don't know what you are asking then for sure?  How to get it?  Oh.  You can install programs either using the command line or by using synaptic.(which is a gui with buttons and mouse and stuffs)  from the command line it would be sudo aptitude install k3b
[09:33] <gnychis> how do you print with lpr? i keep getting lpr: Error - no default destination available.
[09:33] <cyberphaz> there anything like gdesklets with more apps?
[09:33] <Luca> ccoffey it did work with xp ... now on vista doesnt :)
[09:33] <peterD> I am with an uncle here and I have installed ubuntu but I dont have the option to set the resolution higher than 800x600 in the gnome panel, but I see 1024 in the xorg.conf
[09:33] <Luca> b0ne wtf is that ?
[09:33] <DK> hi all
[09:33] <ccoffey> Luca: ah, ok, i've not tried it from vista.
[09:34] <gnomefreak> Luca: go  ask in ##windows they would know
[09:34] <b0ne> a search query for how to share files between ubuntu and vista
[09:34] <DK> I'm having a problem with openoffice packages... they seem to have broken since the last update
[09:34] <dxdt> peterD: check to make sure you have the right refresh rates in xorg.conf in my experience that is the problem if xorg says a higher res but gnome won't let you.
[09:34] <b0ne> er windows*
[09:34] <DK> can anybody please help?
[09:34] <mateiru> i have a laptop and i can connect to my router through the wireless connection. However i have no internet connection. When i check in the network settings a wireless connection is listed how ever when i did a ifconfig i saw no wlan
[09:34] <nussgipfel> hi
[09:34] <Luca> b0ne i dont want no " share " .... i want to browser the files
[09:34] <b0ne> are you dual booted?
[09:35] <DK> this is my broken file: /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-common_2.2.0-1ubuntu4_all.deb
[09:35] <DK> i've removed this, and synaptic has downloaded it again and again, always broken
[09:35] <gnomefreak> Luca: ask in ##windows since you need a windows app for this.
[09:35] <gnomefreak> unop
[09:35] <Luca> yeah but they dont know
[09:35] <user__> euhm, guys, sry for little off topic, but have a little question, is here someone of old ut goty fans?:)
[09:36] <capiira> pici http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Gnomescreensaver_tweaks#Adjust_screensaver_settings_in_gnome-screensaver
[09:36] <gnomefreak> Luca: this is not a windows support channel
[09:36] <vox754> Luca, the driver is mostly for XP and Windows 2000, so it may not work for Vista anymore. You may be out of luck.
[09:36] <capiira> that is what i was looking for
[09:36] <gnomefreak> Luca: try #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:36] <Anlar> luca: www.sf.net and search for ext2 and ext3, that will give you correct software.. and don't mind the asshole zealots here
[09:36] <peterD> dxdt: where do I set the refresh rate in xorg.conf?
[09:36] <b0ne> Luca: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[09:36] <bulmer> mateiru: how do you know you are connected to your AP/router?
[09:36] <b0ne> ext2/ext3 fs driver for windows
[09:36] <baconbacon> Hi, i'm looking for a way to tell ubuntu to use the hostname received from dhcp and not look at /etc/hostname
[09:36] <Luca> Anlar thank you
[09:36] <freewilly> you must find out the refreshrate capabilties of your monitor
[09:36] <ccoffey> b0ne: that was suggest by me ages ago, it doesn't work in vista
[09:36] <Luca> b0ne tried
[09:37] <dxdt> peterD: ummm  I can't really say exactly off the top of my head and I'm not at my computer.  Usually they are commented and in there.  you can then either read the specs for your monitor or just guess some ranges and try with trial and error
[09:37] <b0ne> well, perhaps you could create a different partition that is something windows can understand like fat32
[09:37] <mateiru> i got it to work, thanks anyways
[09:37] <Grifer> wtf??? I had to set Wine to be windows 98 to be able to make windows 98 boot floppy! FYI, win95 didn't work. GG, microshit!
[09:37] <gnomefreak> Luca: you are muted for 10 minutes now for not moving it to a differnet channel
[09:37] <PriceChild> !ohmy | Grifer
[09:37] <ubotu> Grifer: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:37] <jimmygoodboy> sorry to bother, but ubuntu newb here, installing ubuntu dapper on a machine at work for some development.... and when i do a sudo apt-get update i get a tone of connection failed messages, followed by some ips, and the http:// addresses..... what am i missing..and yes, i do know i'm in the internet, because i'm sitting on the machine right now....
[09:37] <freewilly> if you have a satisfying screen/resolution in windows ,you can copy the nvidia/ati timing from the driver
[09:38] <freewilly> in a modeline in your xorg.conf
[09:38] <DK> hi i'm having a problem with this broken file: /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-common_2.2.0-1ubuntu4_all.deb
[09:38] <gnomefreak> DK: todays update on feisty?
[09:38] <jeff_> why is there no passivetex package in Ubuntu Feisty?
[09:38] <DK> yes
[09:38] <DK> gnome: yes
[09:38] <gnomefreak> DK: its a known problem its being worked on
[09:39] <gnomefreak> well it was an hour ago :)
[09:39] <NigelS> shwouchk: I can't see that anyone has said that wpa2 can't work with that card; this guide suggests particular drivers: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190177 other than that, what steps have you followed to enable wpa2?
[09:39] <DK> gnome: oh... can i revert it to the previous open office version somehow?
[09:40] <freewilly> no matter how nice the gnome-displa setiings is
[09:40] <DK> otherwise, i have no open office to use and I was writing a cv
[09:40] <gnomefreak> DK: if the other version is in apt-cache show openoffice.org you can sudo apt-get install openoffice.org=fullversionhere
[09:40] <freewilly> it will with some monitors not give you a nice filling screen
[09:41] <DK> gnome: oh, thank you
[09:41] <Holty101> i have installed c++ just wondering how do i run the program to create my own code
[09:41] <ccoffey> I'm not looking for some to walk me through this, but before i begin, is it possible to install ubuntu onto Fakeraid, and lvm?
[09:42] <gnychis> does anyone know of a good way to print source code?  whenever I just 'lpr' a .c or .cc file, the font is huge and it ends up using like 40 pages
[09:42] <magnetron> !lvm | ccoffey
[09:42] <ubotu> ccoffey: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[09:42] <dv_> security.ubuntu.com is slow as hell. many users upgrading?
[09:42] <vox754> Holty101, go to ubuntuforums.org there is a subforums dedicated to programming, read the guides.
[09:42] <Holty101> cheers
[09:42] <KI4IKL> I typed metacity, it said it had to replace my current window manager...does that mean i'm not running gnome anymore?
[09:42] <stefg> ccoffey: you need an alternate install CD for that
[09:42] <erUSUL> gnychis: usa some beatifier like a2ps or highlight
[09:43] <MegaUbuntuNoob> dxdt: doesnt work
[09:43] <erUSUL> use*
[09:43] <lesshaste> anyone got a good solution for converting svg to pdf?
[09:43] <ccoffey> stefg: to do both at once, the fakeraid has to be done from the live, and the lvm has to be done from alt
[09:43] <b0ne> first link on google by searching svg and pdf returns a kevlindev, converting svg's to pdf's
[09:44] <MegaUbuntuNoob> am i the only one with only ubuntu as OS
[09:44] <stefg> ccoffey: the desktop installer can neither handle raid, nor lvm.
[09:44] <vox754> MegaUbuntuNoob, indeed
[09:44] <jimmygoodboy> anyone here have a clue why apt-get update won't work in my dapper install?
[09:44] <ccoffey> stefg: it's fake raid, using dmraid,
[09:44] <aceofbytes> Good day ladies and gentlemen. How's everyone tonight?
[09:44] <tarzeau> MegaUbuntuNoob: i'm a UltraUbuntuNoob (UltraSPARC)
[09:45] <pyron84> hello guys
[09:45] <imbecile> where in my filesystem would i find my external drives? im trying to add music from them to amarok
[09:45] <magnetron> !support
[09:45] <ubotu> support is The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org
[09:45] <MegaUbuntuNoob> does nobody has only ubuntu as OS
[09:45] <Hor|zon> MegaUbuntuNoob, a lot of people need windows for their jobs and a vm isn't always a solution
[09:45] <stefg> !alternate | ccoffey, i thought that
[09:45] <ubotu> ccoffey, i thought that: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[09:45] <ccoffey> stefg: you can apt-get it form the liove disc, which i don't see how you can do that with the alt disc
[09:45] <magnetron> MegaUbuntuNoob: a lot of use here use Ubuntu as our OS
[09:45] <MegaUbuntuNoob> i see
[09:45] <Ominous_> anyidea why when i run a .sh script from command line ssh the sh file works and the svn and lua bat files work but when i run it from a cron job it dosent work and errors the command lua dosent exist etc
[09:45] <vox754> jimmygoodboy, maybe you have the latest updates. Also, the servers are down.
[09:45] <pyron84> @ imbecile you can mount them directly by plugin it in
[09:45] <pyron84> than right click on it
[09:45] <xst> In a shell script I need to store the output of a command into a variable. Also I need to check the exit status. How can I do that?
[09:46] <MegaUbuntuNoob> magnetron: form wich country are you
[09:46] <Hor|zon> MegaUbuntuNoob, yeah ubuntu is the main OS but it doesn't mean we don't have any other OS...including other unix
[09:46] <jimmygoodboy> vox: no, it's a fresh install, just finished it...how long will the servers be down?
[09:46] <gnomefreak> !no support is <reply> the official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org
[09:46] <ubotu> I'll remember that gnomefreak
[09:46] <stefg> ccoffey: the desktop installer does not allow any lvm-setup, and can't handle raid-boots. ALternate is a completly different install procedure
[09:46] <vox754> jimmygoodboy, nobody knows. Just be patient.
[09:46] <MegaUbuntuNoob> can you everything with ubuntu just like microsoft?
[09:46] <imbecile> pyron84,  its already mounted.. i need to find it though
[09:46] <jimmygoodboy> vox: thank you
[09:46] <MegaUbuntuNoob> do*
[09:46] <pyron84> Can anybody help me, my Remote doesn throw events and i don know why
[09:46] <lesshaste> how do I get acroread ?
[09:47] <magnetron> MegaUbuntuNoob: this channel is for support, join #ubuntu-offtopic for some social chatter
[09:47] <chadeldridg1> I just uninstalled beryl and now all my windows are missing title bars.  I was able to manually start metacity, but i get this message in the terminal:  Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "toggle_shaded"
[09:47] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: are you using us.archive.ubuntu mirrors?
[09:47] <lesshaste> it isn't in any of my repos listed it seems
[09:47] <b0ne> MegaUbuntuNoob: not everything no, there are things that both platforms can do that the other cannot
[09:47] <ccoffey> stefg: i know the differecne between them, you setup dmraid first in the live environment. I don't see how you can add an extra package to the alt disc.
[09:47] <lite-X> i dont think no ones no what i mean when i go to install ubunto on my hardrive it say somthinkk like i need to fix root or make a root or partion a root
[09:47] <jimmygoodboy> gnome: i'm trying to use whatever the default mirrors are in the install.....are they different now? been awhile since i've installed...
[09:47] <pyron84> @ imbecile /media/ than the name of it
[09:47] <MegaUbuntuNoob> i have a old computer can i have 2 OS?
[09:47] <jimmygoodboy> gnome: one sec and i'll tell you what they are
[09:47] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: us mirrors are not as good as others.
[09:48] <shwouchk> NigelS: I set up wpa_supplicant
[09:48] <magnetron> MegaUbuntuNoob: yes, if you have enough space for them
[09:48] <stefg> ccoffey: no extra package... it's a completly different installer
[09:48] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and pastebin the file
[09:48] <shwouchk> NigelS: and also tried with networkmanager
[09:48] <MegaUbuntuNoob> ok
[09:48] <jimmygoodboy> jimmygoodboy: sorry, i'm a newb...pastebin?
[09:48] <imbecile> pyron84,  thanks

[09:48] <ubotu> jimmygoodboy: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:48] <Rakdos> wheres the graphics channel?
[09:48] <jimmygoodboy> rofl...i'm a moron
[09:49] <IndyGunFreak> Rakdos: graphics channel?
[09:49] <baconbacon> I have such an entry in dhcp.conf and the client gets <IP_ADDRESS> correctly but doesn't update its hostname : host node8 { option host-name "node8"; hardware ethernet 00:04:76:e3:xx:xx; fixed-address <IP_ADDRESS>;}. Can anybody help me set the hostname via dhcp? (this is a shared nfs setup so no /etc/hostname)
[09:49] <gnomefreak> Rakdos: here or in #ubuntu-effects
[09:49] <Rakdos> for compiz

[09:49] <ccoffey> stefg: yes, i know, that's what i've been saying, dmraid you've to do through live, and lvm trhough alt. remember dmraid is fakeraid, and it's not part of the alt disc. my question was is it possible to install onto a lvm on a fakeraid/dmraid
[09:49] <LinfortheWi1> is there a way to change the default dimentions of the icons that are shown on the desktop?
[09:49] <b0ne> stefg: why not use regular soft-raid?
[09:50] <b0ne> i'm using it on a new box i set up, and there is seemingly no difference other than the much easier setup
[09:50] <LucianIndy> this works for a drag and drop effect in a launcher: gksudo "gnome-open %u" so why doesn't this gksudo || "chown root %u" || "chmod 700 %u" || "chgrp root %u"
[09:50] <ccoffey> b0ne: dual boot
[09:50] <Hor|zon> LinfortheWi1, change the nautilus zoom
[09:50] <chadeldridg1> LinfortheWi1:  i think you can do it in gconf-editor
[09:50] <b0ne> windows supports software raid as well
[09:50] <b0ne> at least with 2k+ i think
[09:50] <ccoffey> yes, but that'll be messy, seeing as their a dmraid driver out there

[09:50] <stefg> guys, is it so hard to accept that ubiquity (the live installer) is simply too stupid for setting up mdadm, lvm and stuff? YOU NEED ALTERNATE...
[09:50] <Upsal> i'm having a problem when running ./configure: "configure: error: No curses header-files found", how can i solve it?
[09:51] <gnomefreak> !headers | Upsal
[09:51] <ubotu> Upsal: To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages
[09:51] <Upsal> thx _o_
[09:51] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: you see all the lines with us.archive?
[09:51] <jimmygoodboy> yeah
[09:51] <gnomefreak> replace us. with gb.
[09:51] <chadeldridg1> Upsal:  try to sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic
[09:51] <baconbacon> MegaUbuntuNoob: After using almost exclusively Ubuntu since 5.04 is out, I now struggle to be productive on Windows. the adaptation goes both ways
[09:52] <blizzow> Does the latest ubuntu offer the option encrypting the / and swap filesystems during installation?
[09:52] <jimmygoodboy> what is gb?
[09:52] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: save than close it let me know when done
[09:52] <pyron84> CAN anybody help me setting up a remote control ?
[09:52] <DK> how do i check for updates from synaptic? using the "reload" button?
[09:52] <gnomefreak> great britin
[09:52] <jimmygoodboy> mk
[09:52] <gnomefreak> (sp) :(
[09:52] <MegaUbuntuNoob> i see
[09:52] <NigelS> shwouchk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBroadcom <-- it seems not to work so well according to the hardware db.  It might be down to the particular windows driver you're using, the .inf etc but that's just speculation I'm afraid
[09:52] <baconbacon> blizzow: I think so but you'll need the alternate install cd for these features
[09:52] <chadeldridg1>  I just uninstalled beryl and now all my windows are missing title bars.  I was able to manually start metacity, but i get this message in the terminal:  Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "toggle_shaded"
[09:52] <LinfortheWi1> Hor|zon: how can i change the nautilus zoom?
[09:52] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: they are the first to get updated and 99% of time are online where as us is online 50% of time
[09:53] <shwouchk> NigelS: I see :(
[09:53] <gnomefreak> uk and gb are first
[09:53] <Stanislav25sf> ..
[09:53] <MegaUbuntuNoob> but ive i install 2 OS how can i choose with one im gone to use?
[09:53] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: dont close it yet
[09:53] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: are you on 32bit?
[09:53] <NigelS> shwouchk: try out a different one - the one from broadcom. not dell perhaps.  Otherwise follow some of the guides you can see by googling for your chipset and wpa2 that people have made on hte net
[09:53] <jimmygoodboy> gnomefreak: hmm..maybe i just have a problem with the internal network..same errors
[09:53] <jimmygoodboy> yes, i am
[09:54] <gnomefreak> jimmygoodboy: you got same errors after saving and running sudo apt-get update?
[09:54] <KWhat> do apt based distro's have a method of listing all installed packages ?
[09:54] <shwouchk> NigelS: that was already done... I guess Ill return to the hunt. Thanks!
[09:54] <jimmygoodboy> gnome: one sec, i'll pastebin for ya
[09:54] <gnomefreak> KWhat: yes dpkg -l iirc
[09:55] <blizzow> baconbacon: what cd or dvd should I download?
[09:55] <gnomefreak> KWhat: you might want to pipe that less

[09:55] <KWhat> gnomefreak: can you pastie me some sample output so i can figure out how to parse it with out installing one of the distros =)
[09:56] <jimmygoodboy> gnomefreak: mk, sorry to have wasted your time...

[09:56] <EADG_> MegaUbuntuNoob: Grub
[09:56] <gnomefreak> KWhat: you might want to open synaptic and view installed packages
[09:56] <chadeldridg1> !grub | MegaUbuntuNoob
[09:56] <ubotu> MegaUbuntuNoob: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:56] <gnomefreak> KWhat: easier to read ;)
[09:57] <stefg> jokersmild: that's a pretty common setup. check the mythtv-wiki, or join #mythtv-users
[09:57] <pyron84> @MegaUbuntuNoob if you first installed windows, and then ubuntu, you can automaticly choose it @ boottime via a boot manager named grub
[09:57] <KWhat> gnomefreak: i really just need to run something like rpm -qa or equery -Ciop list | awk -F/ '{print $2}' | uniq for apt based distros =)
[09:57] <MegaUbuntuNoob> ok but now i only have ubuntu
[09:57] <Rhynri> hey, how do you change backlight brightness on a macbook?
[09:57] <pyron84> than i got no idea

[09:59] <KWhat> lol
[09:59] <Rhynri> is it just me or are the package servers REALLY slow today
[09:59] <baconbacon> Rhynri: I noticed security.ubuntu.com has a slowdown
[10:00] <LucianIndy> my first machine did an update today very slow but my second was really fast for the other machine
[10:00] <Rhynri> baconbacon - yeah, i'm getting like 10kb/sec if i actually connect
[10:00] <NigelS> Rhynri: yeah, I time out trying to get to security
[10:00] <Rhynri> not to mention this fruiting backlight problem is driving me nuts
[10:00] <Tired_1> I haven't been able to connect to security.ubuntu.com for a couple of days now
[10:00] <albreche> Hi, is there a package that install imap-2006 src ?
[10:01] <Rhynri> people are like (in the wiki) "you don't have to install macbacklight in 7.04" and then neglect to tell you how you do change it.
[10:01] <LucianIndy> !question | ubotu
[10:01] <ubotu> ubotu: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:01] <LucianIndy> heh
[10:02] <IndyGunFreak> !botabuse | LucianIndy
[10:02] <ubotu> LucianIndy: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[10:02] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[10:02] <Rhynri> so, anyone know how to enlighten me? (turn the backlight up?)
[10:02] <LucianIndy> !
[10:02] <LinfortheWi1> Hor|zon: thank you. could you tell me where i find nautilus preferences also? (sorry, i'm new to linux)
[10:03] <IndyGunFreak> Rhynri: have you tried your monitor settings?
[10:03] <MegaUbuntuNoob> how do i instal gnomebaker??
[10:03] <Ghaz> does ubuntu support .rar archives?
[10:03] <LucianIndy> MegaUbuntuNoob, in terminal: sudo apt-get install gnomebaker
[10:03] <Rhynri> IndyGunFreak: on a macbook?
[10:03] <IndyGunFreak> !rar | Ghaz
[10:03] <ubotu> Ghaz: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[10:03] <angel> Help how can i install skype-<IP_ADDRESS>.deb in ubuntu
[10:03] <family> are there any good keyloggers for Linux?
[10:03] <jkmz52> is there a reason why the universe mirror in apt is not enabled by default in ubuntu?
[10:03] <MegaUbuntuNoob> thx
[10:03] <IndyGunFreak> Rhynri: i know nothing about macs, is thereno way to adjust screen brightness?
[10:04] <Ghaz> thank you
[10:04] <joga> apparently adobe has altered its flashplugin package...apt-get wouldn't install it, and when tried manually the installer had an obvious bug with install path input, so I just copied the plugin.so manually
[10:04] <IndyGunFreak> jkmz52: to make you think i guess....
[10:04] <IndyGunFreak> probably non-free stuff there
[10:04] <Hor|zon> LinfortheWi1, open a folder and click edit and preferences is in that menu
[10:04] <Rhynri> IndyGunFreak - acpi compatable monitors... something about not needing a macbacklight package in 7.04, but no one says how to do it without the package.
[10:04] <dxdt> angel: first google hit http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/
[10:04] <jkmz52> I know that universe is the default on debian
[10:04] <gnomefreak> joga: its being looked into
[10:04] <IndyGunFreak> Rhynri: sorry, i really don't know.
[10:05] <ccoffey> family: cat /dev/<keyboard? ?
[10:05] <SlimG> How to make this automatically create needed DIRs: rsync file ./nonexistingdirectory/file
[10:05] <Rhynri> IndyGunFreak: no problem
[10:05] <joga> gnomefreak  ok
[10:05] <jkmz52> ok, thanks
[10:05] <IndyGunFreak> jkmz52: well, you can always add whatever repository it is you want to your sources list
[10:05] <Rakdos> i have a resolution question  when i "sudo nvidia-settings" and set the resolution and save to xconfig and restart and it doesnt save any way to fix this?
[10:05] <pyron84> hihi
[10:05] <LinfortheWi1> Hor|zon: thanx! =)
[10:05] <Rhynri> is there a macbuntu channel?
[10:05] <angel> i have that now dxdt
[10:05] <gnomefreak> joga: let me rephrase that i let the devels know whats wrong one of the flash guys need to fix it (im not good with the scripts we use for flash)
[10:06] <family> ccoffey: how do I find out what the file name for my keyboard is?
[10:06] <Hor|zon> LinfortheWi1, you can also right-click the desktop icons and choose "stretch icon" if you don't want normal folder icons to be affected too
[10:06] <baconbacon> blizzow: You need to use the alternate desktop cd and configure your partitions manually with LVM. in the LVM setup there are options for encryption (sorry for the delay)
[10:06] <MegaUbuntuNoob> it doesnt work its say it doesnt go on 5.04
[10:07] <MegaUbuntuNoob> because there no updates for hoary.........
[10:07] <joga> gnomefreak I think ubuntu script is ok, but adobe, for some reason, has replaced the package; the MD5 sums mismatch, and the adobe installer script adds a redundant space to the install path string and refuses to install
[10:07] <ccoffey> family: xorg or something, if you want to keylog, i'll leave that to you
[10:07] <gnomefreak> joga: no its not
[10:07] <angel>  hellow
[10:07] <angel>  how to i install skypes
[10:07] <angel>  i already downloaded the file with a file ext of .deb
[10:07] <MegaUbuntuNoob> how can i install 7.04 without a burner???
[10:07] <gnomefreak> joga: flash packaged the new one with the same named tar as older one
[10:08] <mwe> !install | MegaUbuntuNoob
[10:08] <ubotu> MegaUbuntuNoob: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[10:08] <gnomefreak> joga: the script needs to be changed to use the new one
[10:08] <joga> gnomefreak well, yeah, but the contents aren't the same since the md5sums are not the same, right?
[10:08] <gnomefreak> joga: right
[10:08] <LinfortheWi1> Hor|zon: yes, i wanted to change all icons tho, :)
[10:08] <mwe> MegaUbuntuNoob, you have a few options
[10:08] <gnomefreak> same name differnet release
[10:08] <Rakdos> i have a resolution question  when i "sudo nvidia-settings" and set the resolution and save to xconfig and restart and it doesnt save any way to fix this?
[10:08] <angel>  hello how do I  install skypes i already downloaded the file with a file ext of .deb
[10:08] <joga> gnomefreak well, yes, in that respect the ubuntu script is out of date
[10:09] <kaje> I'm trying to install 7.04 on a server that has a bum CD... It boots off the CD and I'm given the various options like install, mem test, and so on... However, whenever it does anything even remotely intense with the CD, it locks up. So, is there some way to install via HTTP or something? I really don't want to go the TFTP route...
[10:09] <joga> though it doesn't really do things wrong
[10:09] <gnomefreak> joga: i spent 4+ hours fiddling with that last night trying to find _best_ way to solve it
[10:09] <ccoffey> angel: dpkg -i
[10:09] <dxdt> angel: you should just be able to double click it and gdebi should open and install it.  If not using the command line sudo dpkg -i filename
[10:09] <MegaUbuntuNoob> i have only the iso file i cant install without burning
[10:09] <aarcane> will the next official release of ubuntu include ipv6 support ?
[10:09] <joga> gnomefreak heh :)
[10:09] <mwe> angel, sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[10:09] <zerogx> hello, how can i disabled the graphical start up?
[10:09] <dxdt> aarcane: current release does and has for a while
[10:09] <kaje> zerogx: I think you can just hit escape when it comes up and it will switch to text mode
[10:09] <dxdt> aarcane: check your /etc/hosts file and I think there will even be left over stuff about it inside.
[10:09] <aarcane> dxdt, it seems to be unaware of my radvd broadcaster, and says no ipv6 routers present
[10:09] <angel> thx
[10:10] <mwe> zerogx, bum or rcconf might be easiest
[10:10] <gnomefreak> joga: no its doing it correctly but adobe isnt gonna change so we have to and there were ALOT of regressions in the new version is why we didnt update it yet. we need to find out if the regressions were fixed before we update it or flash is broken anyway
[10:10] <mwe> zerogx, disable gdm
[10:10] <dxdt> aarcane: unfortunately I can't really specifically help as I ahven't touched ipv6 that much
[10:10] <Upsal> i've installed both linux-headers-$(uname -r) and linux-headers-generic, but when i run ./configure i'm still getting: "configure: error: No curses header-files found"
[10:10] <family> ccoffey: okay, I've got it saving the input now, but how do I decode it? It's all meaningless bytes.. I need it to be in ASCII
[10:10] <kaje> zerogx: nm, I misread your question
[10:10] <zerogx> mwe: if i disable gdm will it load into X automatically on start up though?
[10:10] <gnomefreak> zerogx: no
[10:10] <mwe> Upsal, sudo apt-get install ncurses5-dev
[10:11] <zerogx> kaje: haha k
[10:11] <aarcane> dxdt, thanks anyway.  I know it's a bug with several kernels, and the version in ubuntu matches one of the known broken kernels
[10:11] <gnomefreak> gdm == login screen for most part
[10:11] <ccoffey> family: write a sed script, or some perl or something
[10:11] <joga> gnomefreak ah, ok...so now one of my puters has poopy flash ;)
[10:11] <dxdt> aarcane: ahh
[10:11] <mwe> Upsal, err libncurses5-dev, I think. sorry
[10:11] <family> ccoffey: there isn't a program that does this stuff already?
[10:11] <kaje> anyone have any suggestions on how to install 7.04 via a network or some other method? I have a USB cd drive that's working, but I think I'd have to find a boot floppy...
[10:12] <ccoffey> family: i've no idea, i can't see why you'd need a keylogger
[10:12] <ibt> family: this isn't the place to ask those sort of questions
[10:12] <gnomefreak> joga: you can try to use the .deb in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[10:12] <mwe> kaje installing over the network is described on the wiki. I did it a few times
[10:12] <gnomefreak> see if that will help :) sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[10:12] <Upsal> thx mwe
[10:12] <family> ccoffey: it's for my mom's computer. She always used one in Windows because she used it to retreive information if she loses something
[10:12] <mwe> Upsal, uw
[10:12] <joga> gnomefreak thanks for the info
[10:13] <kaje> mwe: did you have to set up a TFTP server and all that jazz?
[10:13] <pliz> SUSPEND QUESTION: I use ubuntu feisty. Suspend works, but after a couple of suspends the machine does not resume. Does anyone have a similar problem?
[10:13] <mwe> kaje, yeah, but it was really easy following the guide. do you plan installing from windows or linux?
[10:13] <Rhynri> What is the usual method of changing the backlight via console?
[10:14] <pablo_>  hi, i am on a live cd, how can i mount my hd (it has ext3 partitions)
[10:14] <kaje> I can do either, which would you recommend mwe?
[10:14] <ccoffey> family: I could think of far better ways of doing that
[10:14] <pliz> pablo_, go to System->Disks
[10:14] <family> ccoffey: like what?
[10:15] <ccoffey> family: decent backups. there's be so much crap just logging keys
[10:15] <pliz> Pablo, find you hard drive and the partition you need, specify mount point and press mount
[10:15] <mwe> kaje, either, but doing it from windows is probably easiest
[10:15] <pablo_> pliz: ok, and then_
[10:15] <mwe> kaje, it's pretty much a point and click procedure
[10:16] <gnomefreak> family: we have backup tools that allows you to choice the partition the files the folders ect.. :) see !backup
[10:16] <pliz> pablo_, sorry, system->administration->disks
[10:16] <kaje> sorry to be a pain, can you give me a link? I'm not having luck googling it
[10:16] <pliz> pablo_,  find you hard drive and the partition you need, specify mount point and press mount
[10:16] <mwe> !install | kaje
