[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry that took so long.. I just installed a new 750 gig and  we.. things got moved around a bit
[15:04] <ader11> Wander_w: On my last computer, with the same cpu clock speed, same ram, etc. I could ssh into it remotely to fetch files and use as a proxy and it was nice and quick, but on my backup computer everything is very slow, and I don't know what's any different
[15:04] <tinman> Jack_Sparrow: congrats ^^
[15:04] <bazhang> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/release/ubuntu-7.10-dvd-i386.iso XHERMES
[15:04] <tinman> ader11: maybe the remote server is slow?
[15:04] <XHERMES> WinXpNewb i can download the dvd iso ,can u give me a link or smthing pls
[15:05] <bazhang> heh
[15:05] <ader11> tinman: well, the remote server has the same clock speed as the previous one I used
[15:05] <ader11> tinman: and I'm connecting remotely from the same computer
[15:05] <XHERMES> oh thank u
[15:05] <Wander_w> ader11: what about harddiscs?
[15:05] <bazhang> np
[15:05] <insanitatum> anyone know how to use vncviewer (xtightvncviewer or similar) to connect to a non-standard ssh port?
[15:05] <tinman> ader11: maybe the remote servre has capped the speed?
[15:05] <insanitatum> vncviewer -via <host> -p <port> <name:display> doesn't seem to work, just kinda pauses and hangs out in nothing-space
[15:06] <bazhang> insanitatum: just searching for that but only come up with links for ssh
[15:06] <Pici> insanitatum: What does the ssh port have to do with vnc?
[15:06] <insanitatum> bazhang: been looking for a bit ;)  works fine on 22 but... some yaya keeps trying to mess with my pretty lil 7.10 box
[15:06] <ader11> Wander_w: the hard disk is significantly slower, but that shouldn't change the proxy speed
[15:06] <WinXpNewb> XHERMES: Well, depending on your needs or programs you specifically want, you might not have a dvd iso available in the internet that has all the packages you want. Which programs do you need?
[15:06] <insanitatum> pici - different port, so via won't work right, defaults to 22
[15:06] <insanitatum> but, point taken, so I'll try not changing a thing
[15:07] <insanitatum> though how this machine will know what the server isup to... confuses me ;)
[15:07] <gan> please , live cd is not booting why
[15:07] <ader11> tinman: that's what I'm trying to find out, my backup server has almost no change from my last server and I don't know why it's slow
[15:07] <bazhang> gan: need more info please
[15:07] <tinman> ader11: maybe the HD speed is slower as someone suggested
[15:07] <insanitatum> yup... zippo,just hangs out in nothing-space since the port for ssh is non-standard
[15:07] <mastriu1> what does it say when youtry to boot?
[15:08] <jamil_11020429> hi I have problem with my media players I have mplayer,VLC and totem-xine. When ever i try to play any video either the video plays in a jerky manner or the resolution can't be changed.   At start or install Use F6 then remove splash and quiet from the command line
[15:08] <ader11> tinman: yes, but that shouldn't change the proxy speed
[15:08] <insanitatum> jamil - silly question, but how's your cpu/memory load?  I had that issue on my laptop until I gave it some happy ram goodness
[15:08] <bazhang> jamil_11020429: what video card and how were drivers installed
[15:08] <mastriu1> ! they replaced the last S in my name to a 1
[15:08] <ader11> tinman: I'm not fetching files from the server, just using it as a proxy, so that shouldn't use the hd
[15:08] <tinman> ader11: How do you know it's problem with proxy?
[15:08] <ader11> tinman: I don't know what the problem is with.
[15:09] <gan> bazhang, through qemu i ran the iso image , it is going upto "Begain to mount the root filesystem " then it stops
[15:09] <jamil_11020429> well i have very bad PC with 128 mb ram
[15:09] <ader11> tinman: I'm just using SSH as a proxy for firefox.
[15:09] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, what may be the error please
[15:09] <jamil_11020429> and an old graphics card
[15:09] <ader11> tinman: and a slower hard drive should not affect performance
[15:09] <tinman> ader11: hmm, cache in proxy server maybe?
[15:09] <ader11> tin?
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> gan There are several possibilities...  At start or install Use F6 then remove splash and quiet from the command line    and look to see what the error is
[15:09] <ader11> sorry, forgot to press tab
[15:09] <tinman> ader11: true, i have no idea sorry ;]
[15:10] <ader11> tinman: what do you mean
[15:10] <bazhang> jamil_11020429: and this is using gutsy ubuntu?
[15:10] <WinXpNewb> XHERMES: a remastered dvd is basically a distro where someone modifies it to tailor to your exact needs so when you install the distro, there's sort of a process that I'm not that familiar with to do that makes it so you have the sources/programs inside the distro without going to a package manager to install it
[15:10] <jamil_11020429> no feisty fawn
[15:10] <tinman> ader11: is the ssh server caching?
[15:10] <ader11> tinman: ok thank you anyway for trying to help :)
[15:10] <tinman> brb
[15:10] <db92> id like someone to help me with the graphics they are getting worse by the minute
[15:10] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, yeah i removed the splash from the isoconfig
[15:10] <db92> i try to cinfigure but it just doesnt work
[15:10] <Jack_Sparrow> gan removing those is sometimes all that is needed... we have other boot options based on errors you may or may not see
[15:11] <db92> now my image is split in half and i see the interface double
[15:11] <XHERMES> thank u WinXpNewb  mr.bazhang gave me a dvd iso link to ubuntu 7.10 i didn't know about it because i downloaded th 700 mb cd iso from ubuntu home page
[15:11] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, what is that option tell me
[15:11] <WinXpNewb> XHERMES: Oh ok.
[15:11] <bazhang> jamil_11020429: that is really likely a ram question, what specs for the cpu and what video card? you might be better off with something like fluxbuntu
[15:12] <Jack_Sparrow> gan depends on your error but often noapic  and or acpi=off are added before the --
[15:12] <jamil_11020429> but i can play the same videos in windows smoothly
[15:12] <bazhang> db92 what graphics card and what driver please; also how did you install them
[15:12] <insanitatum> what version of windows?
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> jamil_11020429, Are you using an ati card and getting jerky video?
[15:13] <danand> XHERMES - you can make your own distro in Ubuntu with the uck package - there is a deb package available. homepage of uck project is at http://uck.sourceforge.net
[15:14] <insanitatum> any thoughts on how to connect to a vnc server w/ vncviewer/xtightvncviewer that's listening to ssh on a non-standard port?
[15:14] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, please see this link http://pastebin.com/m63998f77
[15:14] <bazhang> gan what is the host system
[15:15] <sysadmin-lb22> how can I access windows using SUNRAY
[15:15] <geek> insanitatum: you can provide port as a arguement for most VNC clients
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> gan What version of Ubuntu is that...? or is it just Debian Live
[15:15] <bazhang> sysadmin-lb22: to share folders etc?
[15:15] <XHERMES> thanks to all of u your suggestions have been of use really, bye
[15:15] <WinXpNewb> danand: Thanks. Do you have an idea how uck compares to puppy's way of remastering? That's really the distro I've seen with the most versions and so I assumed it was the one easiest to remaster
[15:15] <insanitatum> geek - tried that... this is from ubuntu 7.10
[15:16] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, it is debian lenny
[15:16] <Jack_Sparrow> gan Then you have the wrong channel for help
[15:16] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, but i created the live foor sid
[15:16] <allquixotic> How can I enable the screen rotation button on my ThinkPad X61t in Gutsy?
[15:17] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, please tell me what to edit
[15:17] <HighNo> allquixotic: do you have tpb installed?
[15:17] <bazhang> #debian is very helpful gan ;]
[15:17] <Jack_Sparrow> gan You are in the wrong place for help with that.. please see #Debian
[15:17] <gan> bazhang, i too have feisty
[15:18] <allquixotic> HighNo: No; but trying to install it says it conflicts with hotkey-setup, which is a dependency for ubuntu-desktop.
[15:18] <insanitatum> geek - 'sides, doing this from the command line... unless you know of a ubuntu-happy client besides terminal services that will actually have a 'port' for me to set ;)
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> gan But that is not what you are needed help with
[15:18] <WinXpNewb> Oh yes, one thing I'm curious about is whether modern distros like Ubuntu has progressed to allow mouse/keyboards that might require drivers to work on it. I've only sampled a mouse that has it once but I haven't tried Linux then.
[15:18] <danand> WinXpNewb - not sure - never used puppy and only read about Uck :) Doesn't seem too bad though - looks fairly simple far as i could tell from the article
[15:18] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, i want to know the differnece between the two Os in creating the livecd
[15:18] <tzd> !access rights
[15:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about access rights - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:18] <geek> insanitatum: what OS is the vnc client and server on?
[15:18] <runewolf> Woo FINALLY got the drivers loaded and have 3d!
[15:18] <geek> just to be clear
[15:18] <insanitatum> geek - ubuntu 7.10
[15:19] <bazhang> runewolf: nice job; next time just say no to envy ;]
[15:19] <Jack_Sparrow> WinXpNewb, I bought a new MS natural 4000 usb that would not work without a driver under WIndows, works like a charm under ubuntu
[15:19] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, i just asking you how to create live cd
[15:19] <slibuntu> nice
[15:19] <insanitatum> geek - on both counts... if it helps, I want to go from here (laptop) to there (server)... usually, this would be xtightvncviewer -via user@ip pcname:0
[15:19] <geek> insanitatum: i'm afraid i've never used a VNC client on linux.. so i can't help much
[15:19] <HighNo> allquixotic: that would not be a problem, ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage, if he want's do deinstall it that's not removing your desktop :-) Anyhow which dist are you on?
[15:19] <runewolf> bazhang: yeah but its runs as slow as hell, must be getting about 4fps :(
[15:19] <Jack_Sparrow> gan I as I said, this is the wrong channel for that type of help
[15:19] <insanitatum> aw nuts
[15:19] <bazhang> gan: get the iso, burn it to cd, boot from cd done
[15:19] <WinXpNewb> Jack_Sparrow: Did it just work out of the box or did you have to tweak anything in Ubuntu?
[15:20] <kris_> Hi guys, was wondering if I could get some help with something - I have just lost the ability to launch the terminal in Gnome after updating my Xorg conf file (added a fourth monitor), after restarting X, and the machine, I can no longer launch the terminal. Any ideas?
[15:20] <a1fa> anyway to remove all packages and reinstall them without actually re-installing from CD?
[15:20] <Jack_Sparrow> WinXpNewb, Worked right out of the box
[15:20] <runewolf> bazhang: at least the drivers is enabled now, but flgrxinfo shows vendor as mesa and not ati
[15:20] <WinXpNewb> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks
[15:20] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[15:20] <allquixotic> HighNo: oops, did I say gutsy? I meant hardy... :S (although I had this problem on a base install of Gutsy before I changed my repos to Hardy)
[15:20] <gan> bazhang, no it is not running , it is going upto mounting the filesystem
[15:20] <LoLLo> why does my dctionary in the panel doesn't work ? can it be connected to the running of Stardict ?
[15:20] <slibuntu> jack sparrow - i have a microsoft mouse too, same deal!
[15:20] <cjae> hi all
[15:20] <a1fa> yo yoyoyo
[15:21] <gan> bazhang, i am following the ubuntu doc of creating the live cd
[15:21] <danand> a1fa - yes - wait one
[15:21] <bazhang> gan not in qemu please--that is for the #debian channel--to run #ubuntu do as I told you thanks
[15:21] <a1fa> danand : thanks
[15:21] <HighNo> allquixotic: hm, I can't tell at this time if hotkey-setup is needed, did you check thinkwiki?
[15:21] <LoLLo> why does my dctionary in the panel doesn't work ? can it be connected to the running of Stardict ? ----> i can't write anything there !
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> gan That is fine...  try #Ubuntu-offtopic
[15:21] <allquixotic> HighNo: people on thinkwiki don't seem to be having this problem
[15:22] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, really i am using the feisty 7.4
[15:22] <WinXpNewb> What kind of live cd is gan making that's off topic for Ubuntu?
[15:22] <HighNo> allquixotic: hehe - what else :-)
[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> gan That goes not matter.. the type of help you are asking for is not supported in here..
[15:22] <allquixotic> HighNo: the latest version of tpb is painfully old, 2005... I seriously doubt that bitrotting software would be a magic bullet on a thinkpad put into production several years after its last release
[15:22] <bazhang> WinXpNewb: hes not--hes running qemu on debian
[15:22] <jessid> Hello. Some of you could recommend a good application that helps me design web sites to work in ubuntu, something like deamweaver in windows? thanks a lot
[15:22] <shantzu> hello
[15:22] <cjae> ok if I dl a wav from gnuttela2 or something it plays fine on my ubuntu machine under xmms but if I dl off the web like just a short quote from a movie it sounds terrible
[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> does
[15:22] <shantzu> i have 5 buttons on my mouse, is there a way to make ubuntu recognize that ?
[15:22] <WinXpNewb> bazhang: oh ok
[15:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !buttons
[15:23] <HighNo> allquixotic: true
[15:23] <ubotu> Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[15:23] <shantzu> ok, thank you sir
[15:23] <HighNo> allquixotic: I can't surf at the moment - I am updating to hardy right now...
[15:23] <cjae> but if I switch to windows and use media player classic or ms media player the same one from the same website sound fine, wtf?
[15:23] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, what jack you are telling like this , you actually tried to help me , really i believed you
[15:23] <JayLevitt> Hi all. anyone have the patience to walk me through a fresh install of 7.10, straight from CD, just trying to set up simple (software) RAID-1 on two identical SATA drives, with LVM on top?
[15:23] <bazhang> gan let it go please
[15:23] <JayLevitt> You'd think that would be easy, but I keep getting errors in the installer
[15:23] <HighNo> allquixotic: but you can check if xev shows your key being pressed
[15:24] <insanitatum> jay - the install was very nice :)  what kind of errors are you getting?
[15:24] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, please you know , you have seen the isolinux.cfg file
[15:24] <allquixotic> HighNo: keycode 203. xev detects it
[15:24] <allquixotic> HighNo: so the question is, in what configuration file can I bind "rotate my screen by 90 degrees" to keycode 203?
[15:24] <cjae> what is the codec that opens wav files from websites? in totem ?
[15:24] <JayLevitt> insanitatum: Well, part of the problem is that I haven't figured out the exact order to do things, so I keep getting chicken-and-egg errors about /dev/md0, or about no root partition
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> gan Please read the topic...  and follow what I have politely asked you to do several times
[15:25] <b4l74z4r> any news on x-fi in ubuntu?
[15:25] <JayLevitt> insanitatum: Right now I have rebooted the installer, and am sitting at the manual partition screen, showing two drives, SCSI1/SCSI2, each with 1 primary partition, set up as "B K raid"
[15:25] <HighNo> allquixotic: if you use metacity it could do. but question is - do you know the command to rotate the screen?
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> b4l74z4r, Ask in #Ubuntu+1  I think it will be in there
[15:25] <b4l74z4r> ok
[15:25] <JayLevitt> insanitatum: those are /dev/sda and /dev/sdb, by the way, just to be clear
[15:25] <danand> a1fa - run dpkg -l | grep ii | awk -F"  " '{print $2}' | sort > dpkg-l.txt  to get a list of all packages installed on your system
[15:25] <allquixotic> HighNo: I do not. :)
[15:26] <allquixotic> HighNo | http://rafb.net/p/NBNA1u29.nln.html is the xev reaction to pushing the button I want
[15:26] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, ok , its my humble request , then its your wish
[15:26] <wraund> sorry for the rejoins
[15:26] <Jack_Sparrow> gan thank you
[15:26] <derek> hello
[15:27] <soundray> danand: how about 'dpkg --get-selections | cut -f 1'? ;)
[15:27] <JayLevitt> insanitatum: when I try "Configure software RAID", I always end up with *two* raid-1 devices instead of one
[15:27] <a1fa> danand : and then what
[15:27] <allquixotic> HighNo: When I go into the System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution app, it is able to change the rotation for me. but I am not sure what is behind the code for that, or if it's even something that can be done with the CLI
[15:27] <insanitatum> JayLevitt: now that's real odd... give me a sec, reading up on something... I remember I tried to do that myself during the install and I got glitches for days, so I just did it after the fact
[15:27] <gan> Jack_Sparrow, its truth i am here using feisty 7.04 , why i said debian , ubuntu also follows debian
[15:28] <Aleksander-pl> Is it safe to resize and move NTFS with GParted? I need to change some Windows partitions and I CAN NOT lost them.
[15:28] <JayLevitt> insanitatum: Yeah, all of the walkthroughs I've seen have pretty much said that!  but I find that hard to believe
[15:28] <HighNo> allquixotic: ah, good to know - let me check...
[15:28] <Strawberryjam> sorry...also sorry Jack_Sparrow...had to go
[15:28] <JayLevitt> Also, having only the two drives, I'm not sure exactly how you're supposed to reformat your whole system "after the fact" :)
[15:28] <a1fa> i need to remove all packages and re-install them again
[15:28] <tinman> Aleksander-pl: you should back it up first
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Strawberryjam, Yea.. sure blame the wife.. np
[15:28] <a1fa> i want to remov everything related to X, GNOME, KDE, etc and purge it
[15:28] <soundray> Aleksander-pl: data you haven't backed up is data you don't want
[15:28] <Aleksander-pl> tinman: it's 80 GB
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58611/
[15:28] <tinman> Aleksander-pl: also, disk defragment and chkdsk them
[15:28] <Strawberryjam> hahaha...true...she's off to work now
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Strawberryjam, See the link and we can discuss it
[15:28] <tinman> Aleksander-pl: there's always risk in my opinion
[15:29] <Strawberryjam> k
[15:29] <soundray> a1fa: why?
[15:29] <insanitatum> JayLevitt: partitions are my friend ;)  that, and USB stick installing helps a -ton-, but gimme a sec, I remember reading something that had the raid stuff in it
[15:29] <Aleksander-pl> tinman: so I nned to defragment disc under Windows, copy it, and then resize?
[15:29] <cjae> did anyone catch my questions?
[15:29] <db92> i need help with graphics on ubuntu 7.10, anyone able to "lend a hand"? :P
[15:29] <atrus> Aleksander-pl: anything important should be backed up regardless of whether you're resizing or partitioning :) that said, i've resized windows xp ntfs several times without losing anything.
[15:29] <soundray> cjae: no answer for 10 minutes or more? Repeat or, better, rephrase
[15:30] <a1fa> soundray : issues
[15:30] <Aleksander-pl> atrus: I am resizing my data all the time, but I need to install Sims 2 on friend's PC :D
[15:30] <a1fa> i want to reinstall gnome desktop
[15:30] <Aleksander-pl> and it's a giant mess there
[15:30] <danand> a1fa - after that you can sudo -i to become root. then run for i in $(cat dpkg-l.txt); do apt-get -s --reinstall install $i; done . That will only simulate the process. Remove the -s after apt-get to run that for real. ... no warraties with how that will turn out. Back up all your important data first..... tempted to use aptitude instead of apt in there.
[15:30] <a1fa> and purge all files related to it
[15:30] <soundray> a1fa: you will be better off reinstalling from scratch -- quicker, cleaner
[15:31] <Cyntrox> Is there any way to make gedit show line numbers?
[15:31] <insanitatum> ahhh, ok, now it makes sense why I did it after the fact
[15:31] <danand> a1fa - ie    for i in $(cat dpkg-l.txt); do aptitude reinstall $i; done    instead of using apt.
[15:31] <mastriu1> Q: How do I use the terminal to schedule downloads at specific times?
[15:31] <cjae> soundray, ok thanks will wait a few more minutes, but would like to boot back ubuntu from win to try to diagonse on my own, but I believe user name is diff in buntu
[15:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Strawberryjam, Lines 72, 74, 76 and 88 do the real work  is that what you have been doing to rebuild your alsa drivers
[15:31] <db92> anyone able to help with graphics issues?
[15:32] <Strawberryjam> yep..studying it now
[15:32] <soundray> cjae: I'm confused... Just re-ask your question for my benefit.
[15:32] <danand> a1fa - like i said back every thing up first including files in /etc /boot
[15:32] <Jack_Sparrow> db92, Sure can try.. what video card?
[15:32] <cjae> soundray, ok if I dl a wav from gnuttela2 or something it plays fine on my ubuntu machine under xmms but if I dl off the web like just a short quote from a movie it sounds terrible
[15:32] <^Migs^> is this real? https://launchpad.net/jubuntu
[15:32] <cjae> soundray, what is the codec that opens wav files from websites? in totem ?

[15:33] <Strawberryjam> ok...the driver i am looking for is 1.1.16 and i am using an emu1212m card, so do i just substitute you intel etc. with those?
[15:33] <a1fa> it just removed their task name
[15:33] <allquixotic> HighNo, I'm following https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hotkey-setup/+bug/116073
[15:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Strawberryjam, 16 wont work

[15:34] <db92> Jack_Sparrow: atm i have radeon 3870, but this is mainly for my gaming partition of windows
[15:34] <JayLevitt> Migs: Which, frankly, makes me suspicious that they're not Jewish.. maybe reform
[15:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Strawberryjam, You need to use 15 or you have all sorts of problems
[15:34] <danand> a1fa - I agree with soundray. Unless you have very specific reasons for keeping your existing install, i would just reinstall from scratch
[15:34] <Strawberryjam> ok
[15:34] <Paddy_EIRE> Hey guys I'm currently doing my brother in laws comp and have been trying to keep ubuntu as his primary OS and windows media center edition as a VM which can also be boot into normally... is this possible?
[15:34] <mohamed> i want to connect zen creative 8gb player in ubuntu 7.10
[15:34] <soundray> cjae: can you save a wav to disk and open it with 'gnome-open file.wav'? How does it sound?
[15:34] <db92> Jack_Sparrow: my main problem is that i try to configure resolution from ubuntu from an app in "system" tab, and it just makes my screen go weird
[15:34] <Strawberryjam> i will substitute the hda intel with emu101_k i think right
[15:34] <danand> a1fa - oops. was that crashed caused by that command?
[15:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Strawberryjam, FYI  #Alsa room has lots of good helpful people
[15:35] <^Migs^> could you just load Windows Media Center through rdesktop + SeamlessRDP?
[15:35] <Strawberryjam> ok thnx
[15:35] <Tooommi> anki: yeah
[15:35] <^Migs^> I mean, if that's the only thing you're using VM for
[15:35] <danand> a1fa - s/crashed/crash/
[15:35] <Jack_Sparrow> db92, Is this a desktop or laptop
[15:35] <HighNo> allquixotic: it does not work for you?
[15:35] <cjae> soundray, when I listen to .wav files from sites, like from a movie clip, I sounds terrible in linux but in win sounds fine and is from same site
[15:35] <soundray> cjae: normally, wav doesn't need a codec -- the audio driver decodes it.
[15:35] <db92> desktop fcors
[15:35] <a1fa> it sigfaulted on me
[15:35] <Paddy_EIRE> ^Migs^: the only thing I really want the VM for is for media center on the 360
[15:35] <allquixotic> HighNo: haven't had a chance to test it, still following the instructions
[15:36] <db92> from the last config the ubuntu partition is now unusable, the display has been screwed beyond recognition giving me something like scanlines and the image cut in half
[15:36] <Jack_Sparrow> db92,  HAve you gone to system admin restricted drivers manager?
[15:36] <anki> Tooommi: sorry i dont understand what you mean with "yeah" you also cannot access it from tonline?
[15:36] <Tooommi> yeah
[15:36] <anki> thanks
[15:36] <quarsaw> has anyone had any experience installing Ubuntu on a Mac Pro?
[15:36] <cjae> soundray, but when I dl from gnutella2 is sounds fine under xmms
[15:36] <Tooommi> google and every site which uses google analytics is down
[15:36] <a1fa> ok fresh install
[15:36] <db92> no i didnt go there first, supposing that the app it had in system itself would suffice for a small resolution change, i just wanted to set it to higher
[15:36] <Strawberryjam> Jack_Sparrow: its kinda hard now as i am using my wife's machine and running studio off a usb hdd in Vmware. Effortless. its just the hardware is in the other machine.
[15:36] <a1fa> god damn it
[15:36] <a1fa> :(
[15:36] <danand> a1fa - if you insist on running that command rather that reinstalling you might be better off using apt-get instead then. Have you important data on that install
[15:36] <soundray> quarsaw: yes -- Ubuntu runs fine with 6 GB :)
[15:37] <cjae> soundray, ok will boot back linux and post back to you
[15:37] <db92> i just need a way to reset graphics to default at least
[15:37] <quarsaw> soundray: any trouble installing?
[15:37] <db92> its totally unusable as it is now
[15:37] <HighNo> allquixotic: try on the console: xrandr -q
[15:37] <Azodon> whay is rdesktop?
[15:37] <Jack_Sparrow> db92, The way to get that back.. is to use recovery mode.. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  select vesa as your card type and 1024 max, that will give you basic gui functions to continue unless something else has happened.
[15:37] <soundray> quarsaw: edgy wouldn't boot, but feisty installed fine. I took some hints from the Gentoo wiki for configuring things. Wireless didn't work.
[15:38] <HighNo> Azodon: rdesktop = rdp client
[15:38] <patty522> any one used dancer-ircd?
[15:38] <db92> Jack_Sparrow: i should launch recovery mode and do that?
[15:38] <HighNo> allquixotic: what does the above command give you?
[15:38] <soundray> quarsaw: I have since switched to running gutsy in VMware Fusion, which is fine except OpenGL troubles.
[15:38] <Jack_Sparrow> db92, Please also note.. avoid scripts like automatix and to alesser extent envy
[15:39] <Jack_Sparrow> db92, are you in desktop now
[15:39] <HoNgOuRu> can I set sendmail to send mails to any server of the internet?
[15:39] <allquixotic> HighNo: http://rafb.net/p/xMzrcl94.nln.html
[15:39] <Strawberryjam> Jack_Sparrow: so just incase if i understand line 82 correctly...if i dont know what the correct value for my card is "?" will work?
[15:39] <db92> well i am running my windows partition cos i couldnt see anything on ubuntu, the display was fubar
[15:39] <quarsaw> soundray: thanks I'll check out the gentoo wiki as a reference
[15:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Strawberryjam, Line 82 is rem'd out and not used in that script
[15:39] <patty522> ok, i have installed dancer-ircd server and its running i can connect and talk. but how do i sign in as operator
[15:40] <Strawberryjam> so i see but could i use that line for my particular card Jack_Sparrow?
[15:40] <soundray> quarsaw: note: I didn't have to use refit
[15:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Strawberryjam, I have not finished those options yet the ? means I dont have an answer yet
[15:41] <Strawberryjam> Jack_Sparrow: thank you
[15:41] <Jay_Levit> brb, having nick problems
[15:41] <quarsaw> soundray: my friend has been trying to get gutsy on his and is having trouble with teh video driver
[15:41] <Jack_Sparrow> db92, Sorry, yes, use recovery mode and try that command, use tab to bypass any other options  or just hit enter as needed, try not to change anything else for now..
[15:42] <jonathan_> Where can I find the actual python app?

[16:14] <Odd-rationale> wraund: You need to enable !multiverse reops
[16:14] <Strawberryjam> np speedo
[16:14] <frank_> tatyawinchu: you have to install it using synaptic. it installs in RAM if you're in LiveCD
[16:14] <Jack_Sparrow> wraund, Thanks.. it helps to keep down the sctoll
[16:15] <BoY> gie
[16:15] <jessid> i am very very  thankful!!!
[16:15] <tatyawinchu> frank .. erm ok .. i think i will skip it .. my first 5 mins in linux ocean .. still trying to keep my head above water
[16:15] <HighNo> frank_: installing via apt does not work on the live CD?
[16:15] <frank_> tatyawinchu: that's assuming desktop effects work. Do your windows wiggle?
[16:15] <Jack_Sparrow> tatyawinchu, You also need to enable restricted drivers
[16:15] <frank_> HighNo: it does work in liveCD
[16:15] <Odd-rationale> wraund: Sorry, actually you need the archive.canonical.com repo...
[16:15] <tatyawinchu> err ..
[16:16] <HighNo> frank_: ok, that's what I thought. It sounded like _only_ synaptic would be useful because it would install into ram - was confused...
[16:16] <niklas> When I watch a WMW file on the internet using Firefox, I installed all codecs to see it and it works. But the panel to go forward and rewind isnt there. What program do u use for displaying wmwfiles on ff?
[16:16] <Jack_Sparrow> tatyawinchu, YEs, you can do it... but for a live session, may be more work than you want to do..
[16:16] <tatyawinchu> may be let me get used to linux for a week or so as a common user .. that rotating thing sounds little complicated =)
[16:16] <egoleo> Jack_Sparrow: gotten now
[16:16] <egoleo> so plse
[16:17] <havenless> 245.4MB of updates... that'll take a few mins

[16:17] <ubotu> niklas: mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[16:18] <eventualbuddha> hey all, I'm trying to follow the directions here: http://technically.us/code/x/a-year-of-plaintext-afp-passwords-is-enough and it tells me I need to add a source repository to sources.list (which makes google unhappy), but doesn't explain it. the faq is a bit vague. any ideas?
[16:18] <beerdeaap> !mozilla-mplayer | niklas
[16:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mozilla-mplayer - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[16:19] <eventualbuddha> basically I just need to be able to run this: apt-get source netatalk
[16:19] <Jack_Sparrow> eventualbuddha, Before adding repos and venturing outside the safe zone, please do a full system backup
[16:19] <tatyawinchu> havenless =)  some massive bandwidth connection i guess =)
[16:19] <eventualbuddha> Jack_Sparrow: done. it's a vmware image, and I just took a snapshot
[16:19] <someone112312> Hi
[16:19] <niklas> beerdeaap: yes I can see the movies, but the panel to adjust volume, rewind and go backwards isnt there. So I could really use another player

[16:21] <someone112312> No, is that how it works?
[16:21] <frank_> someone112312: it's called partition editor in the menu I think

[16:23] <egoleo> Jack_Sparrow

[16:25] <Jack_Sparrow> k1ro, Please rephrase your request to include the fact that it does not show a vaild partition table. it will save you and others time
[16:26] <beerdeaap> niklas: you can set in in   firefox  preferences -> content-> file types
[16:26] <LukeL> someone112312 are you trying to partition the drive that has the OS you're currently running on?
[16:26] <neverblue> morning

[16:27] <LuiCal> ntfs 3g does not work recognizing my ntfs
[16:27] <eventualbuddha> Jack_Sparrow: np. i appreciate the help!
[16:27] <gotgn1> what version of xorg is gutsy using ?
[16:27] <Jack_Sparrow> eventualbuddha, Any time
[16:27] <LuiCal> i dunno
[16:27] <LuiCal> how can i check that?
[16:27] <genii> info xserver-xorg gutsy | gotgn1

[16:28] <Jack_Sparrow> LuiCal, Does it show from terminal when you type  sudo fdisk -l
[16:28] <beerdeaap> nilkas: have you installed totem-mozilla ?
[16:28] <marx2k> Ahoy hoy
[16:28] <niklas> beerdeaap: naa I installed gnome-mplayer and mozilla-mplayer or what it was called
[16:28] <k1ro> Im having problem Detecting my second hard drive Used as Data "Folder" How do I detect and put it "on" to put files in it.
[16:28] <LuiCal> yes there it is
[16:29] <LuiCal> but i cannot have acces to it
[16:29] <LuiCal> it says that is not possible to moun the volume
[16:29] <neverblue> k1ro, well, you need to use fstab, in combination with mount commands
[16:29] <beerdeaap> niklas: as far as I know totem can play wmv files. try to install that if mplayer doesn.t suit your needs
[16:30] <Jack_Sparrow> LuiCal, what command gives that error
[16:30] <k1ro> neverblue, Im new on ubuntu could you help a lil bit to get me started on this problem?
[16:30] <k1ro> !fstab
[16:30] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[16:30] <LuiCal> when i click in the drive
[16:30] <LuiCal> that message comes up
[16:30] <neverblue> k1ro, read a bit of 'man mount', just to get some basics under your belt
[16:30] <rinaldi_> hi when I try to use ssh to connect to another pc i get "ssh: connect to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 22: Connection refused" why might this be?
[16:30] <cberl1> Hi folks.  anyone familiar with SSH X11 forwarding?  I'm getting an error on my Edubuntu server:  X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.  Can't quite figure it out.
[16:30] <neverblue> rinaldi_, that host isnt running sshd probably
[16:31] <ppaya> !Partitions
[16:31] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in !GNOME under !Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For !Edgy and later, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[16:31] <ppaya> xD
[16:31] <LuiCal> what am i supposed to do?
[16:31] <niklas> beerdeaap:  done installing them now,,
[16:31] <Jack_Sparrow> LuiCal, So it shows up in nautilus etc? but cannot be accessed?
[16:31] <beerdeaap> cberl1: make sure your server supports it (has the x forward option enabled)
[16:31] <LuiCal> exactly
[16:31] <LuiCal> yes
[16:31] <Jay_Levitt> cberl1: Are you in a position to launch the sshd server manually, and turn on debugging so it'll show you what it's unhappy about?
[16:32] <neverblue> rinaldi_, can you ping the address?
[16:32] <Jay_Levitt> (maybe on a separate port, if there are other people using the sshd server on 22)
[16:32] <genii> rinaldi_: If the ssh server is running on that box, make sure you aren't trying to login as root, it's disabled by default.
[16:32] <hischild> what is it with the flootbots setting mode -J on the channel every time?
[16:32] <rinaldi_> neverblue: ooo no i can't so that mus be the problem, it says the network is unreachable
[16:32] <muszek> when I click on a gnome panel's clock and then add a location, then choose "find" to locate some city... this thing is buggy (places some Polish cities in wrong timezones...).  anyone knows which package does it belong to?  I want to file a bug report.
[16:32] <cberl1> Jay_Levitt: Sure.  I think I can do that.
[16:33] <LuiCal> what im i supposed to do?
[16:33] <neverblue> rinaldi_, well then, are you behind a router, is your LAN setup properly?
[16:33] <Jay_Levitt> cberl1: there may be similar logging on the ssh client, too - but I always use SecureCRT on Windows, never the "real" ssh client, so I don't know that side
[16:33] <cberl1> Jay_Levitt: Can you give me directions on that?
[16:33] <beerdeaap> cberl1: make sure this  line is in your sshd_config X11Forwarding yes
[16:33] <rinaldi_> neverblue: well the ssh was working the other day and i hav'nt changed it...
[16:33] <cberl1> beerdeaap: Got it.  :)
[16:33] <Jack_Sparrow> LuiCal, I dont have an answer but post your question as I have a drive that shows up in nautilus but when accessing it I get "It is not possible to Mount this volume"
[16:33] <beerdeaap> cberl1: cool :D
[16:33] <neverblue> rinaldi_, possibly the IP of the box changed, check your router
[16:34] <Jay_Levitt> cberl1: I could if my Ubuntu box were working :)... I believe it's going to be something like "sshd -p 1234 -d", where "-p 1234" is the port you want it listening on, and "-d" is debugging mode
[16:34] <Jay_Levitt> but I'd check "man sshd" to be sure those are the right options
[16:34] <LuiCal> ok
[16:34] <Strawberryjam> just installed flash, on studio, running on vmware off a usb drive, and its awesome
[16:34] <Jay_Levitt> Oh, and there's a third option that will say "don't go into background mode, stay attached to terminal"
[16:34] <Jack_Sparrow> LuiCal, include the format of that partition as well.. sorry I cant help more
[16:34] <zippytech>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY motocross
[16:35] <LuiCal> I have an ntfs drive that shows up in nautilus but when accessing it I get "It is not possible to Mount this volume", what can i do about it?
[16:35] <rinaldi_> neverblue: i might have it. the internet cut out earlier and for some reason it disconnected the wireless, as the server is running wirelessly nevermind il just restart
[16:35] <elmargol> yeah
[16:35] <Jack_Sparrow> zippytech, go change your password..now
[16:35] <neverblue> zippytech, you never want to do that in a channel
[16:35] <Jack_Sparrow> LuiCal, thanks, that should help you get an answer
[16:35] <neverblue> rinaldi_, then confirm the IP on your router...
[16:35] <LuiCal> thanks
[16:36] <elmargol> ^^
[16:36] <rinaldi_> neverblue:  yup
[16:36] <niklas> beerdeaap:  But wmw isnt available in the list there over filetypes..
[16:36] <LuiCal> please help, i have an ntfs drive that i can see at nautilus, but cannot have access to it, and im using gutsy
[16:36] <LuiCal> please help
[16:36] <neverblue> LuiCal, please, stop repeating and be patient
[16:37] <LuiCal> sorry
[16:37] <cberl1> Just guessing, but that's a tad bit more difficult if I'm already connected through SSH, huh?
[16:37] <Jack_Sparrow> LuiCal, Lose the please help...  it doesnt get you help any faster and may annoy someone that might be able to help
[16:37] <neverblue> LuiCal, did you add an entry into your fstab?
[16:38] <LuiCal> well, i saw a forum about the topic and they told me to add something but it didnt work
[16:38] <neverblue> LuiCal, so you have no entry in your fstab, for that partition?
[16:38] <Jack_Sparrow> neverblue, It shows up in nautilus, but you may have something.. if he manually edited fstab
[16:38] <neverblue> Jack_Sparrow, did he post it on pastebin
[16:38] <jordo2323> Does anyone know where I can find a changelog for the Evolution updates that hit today or yesterday?
[16:38] <Jack_Sparrow> neverblue, not yet
[16:39] <LuiCal> well, yes, but thats something i put myself on fstab
[16:39] <LuiCal> but it still doesnt work
[16:40] <Jack_Sparrow> neverblue, thanks..for helping.. I'm in need of a break..
[16:40] <neverblue> LuiCal, does 'sudo mount -a', currently, give any errors?
[16:40] <BoY> GIE
[16:40] <neverblue> Jack_Sparrow, np, u work too much :D
[16:40] <rinaldi_> neverblue: do you know much about cnv over ssh. im kinda new and stuck. when i try to connect to vnc i get "vncviewer: unable to open display """
[16:40] <LuiCal> let me see
[16:40] <davee> If setting up encrypted LVM from the Ubuntu Alternate Install CD, can one change the passphrase at a later date, or is it set in stone?
[16:40] <neverblue> rinaldi_, you need to enable X remotely in your sshd.conf file on the server
[16:41] <neverblue> rinaldi_, I would suggest a google search, there is lots of ppl discussing it
[16:41] <LuiCal> yes it gives an error
[16:41] <LuiCal> it says that ntfs is marked to be in use
[16:41] <neverblue> LuiCal, can you please post your fstab on pastebin for me, thanks
[16:41] <neverblue> !pastebin | LuiCal

[16:42] <LuiCal> ok let me paste it
[16:43] <cberl1> Jay_Levitt: Can't seem to fire it up by remote while using SSH...  Can't get into where the server is at the moment, so I'm a bit rooked for now.
[16:43] <Jay_Levitt> cberl1: agh, sorry then... I'm a programmer, not a sysadmin, so without debugging logs I'm hopeless :/
[16:43] <LuiCal> i just post it
[16:44] <cberl1> Jay_Levitt: Fair enough.  Thanks for the attempt, at least!
[16:44] <Jay_Levitt> cberl1: It's like trying to ask a

[16:45] <Jack_Sparrow> LuiCal, hdb1 is the problem right
[16:45] <beerdeaap> niklas: don't you mean wmv ???
[16:45] <LuiCal> yep, thats it
[16:46] <Jack_Sparrow> fstab is not correct
[16:46] <ejungle> hello I need help
[16:46] <LuiCal> that last line is the one i wrote on it
[16:46] <niklas> beerdeaap: yes
[16:48] <beerdeaap> niklas: if you've installed the plugin and checked the list, maybe you should restart firefox and check the list again. If that doesn't work for you. I would copy the link to the wmv file and play it in your fav stand-alone player.

[16:59] <magic> ok but it will not go in one line .....its copy past ...
[16:59] <tatyawinchu> genii .. very new user in linux .. 30 min old .. its a dvd concert iso which i want to play
[16:59] <beerdeaap> xand_: for mp3 audio you need to have a binary of ffmpeg that is linked to the lame encoder
[16:59] <speedo> guys i need a trick to make cpu scaling works
[16:59] <k1ro> Jack_sparrow, nothing happened yet
[16:59] <LuiCal> but how can i do that?
[16:59] <LuiCal> sorry im a newbie
[16:59] <neverblue> LuiCal, now you read 'man mount'
[16:59] <tatyawinchu> genii .. if you could please elaborate pm is welcome
[16:59] <genii> tatyawinchu: Then the method the bot describes will be fine

[17:15] <velovinx> seb962 Can you describe the layout of your disks/partitions
[17:15] <lubse> hello
[17:15] <Eicca> I used https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions?highlight=%28auto%29%7C%28mount%29 the diskmounter script to automatically mount one of my partitions. What about when I dont want to automatically mount it anymore? How can I remove it?
[17:15] <lubse> anyone using xchat here?
[17:15] <Lartza_> lubse: me
[17:16] <Lartza_> lubse: Right now
[17:16] <lubse> trying to turn of my join and quit messages
[17:16] <lubse> no luck so far in xchat channel
[17:16] <lubse> turn off*
[17:16] <danand> tatyawinchu - mount point is the location the iso will be mounted to. this is usually a folder. create a folder called iso bye typing mkdir iso. then mount the iso by typing  sudo mount -o loop file.iso iso. You will then be able to browse the iso image by looking in that iso folder you created. after your done type sudo umount iso to un mount the image
[17:16] <hischild> Why is ubuntu only recognizing one of two cores of my cpu? cpuinfo says --> http://pastebin.com/f59d55e64
[17:16] <Lartza_> do you use xchat or gnome xchat?
[17:16] <seb962> Sure can, velovinx. I had hda1, with a single nfts windows partition, and hdb1234, with 3 linux partitions and a fat32 data swap partition.
[17:16] <lubse> xchat
[17:16] <tatyawinchu> danand:  thank you bhai
[17:17] <danand> tatyawinchu - np :)
[17:18] <magic> pda problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58638/
[17:18] <tatyawinchu> danand:  btw  /media/SATA5/Downloads/DVD- live concerts/RAMMSTEIN LIVE CONCERTS.iso  is the path of the file i want to mount
[17:18] <Lartza_> lubse: you dont want to see toher ppl connecting or you dont wanna see your own connect meassage?
[17:19] <lubse> I dont wanna see other people connecting
[17:19] <tatyawinchu> danand:  so thats the path i have to type in ? starting with  /media/SATA5  and so on ?
[17:19] <Lartza_> i dont know real way to disable it
[17:20] <GeordieToddy> anyone in here able to help with wireless problems? PM me :D
[17:20] <velovinx> seb962 you removed hdb, and now you cant boot windows? is that right?
[17:20] <Lartza_> lubse: Settings>Extra Setitngs?>Actiontexts? and clear every unwanted messages
[17:20] <tatyawinchu> danand:  nothing happened =/
[17:20] <seb962> Exactly Velovinx.
[17:21] <vallhalla81> Jack_Sparrow:  no luck did you want a paste bin of the output>?
[17:21] <lubse> someone quit :)
[17:21] <Hisotaso> when copying files from my ubuntu box to windows box over local network, i get "error access denied", but i will work if i hit retry repeatedly, any ideas?
[17:21] <burkmat> kernel panic when i connect to WEP encrypted networks
[17:21] <seb962> Im pretty sure grub was installed in hdb and that my mbr is broken but the only solutions i can find on the forums are for vista. I have access to hdb if I need to mount it up again.
[17:21] <danand> tatyawinchu - yes. Be careful if there are spaces in the file name. you should "escape" those with a backslash. ie "file 2.iso" should be entered as file\ 2.iso
[17:21] <lubse> could you let me know if you see a quit message?
[17:21] <Eicca> what does these numbers stand for? umask=0002
[17:21] <lubse> I think I turned it off
[17:21] <Eicca> what are the groups?
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> vallhalla81, put it up.. but I am busy atm
[17:21] <tatyawinchu> danand  oh .. will try again
[17:21] <lubse> with /set irc_conf_mode 1
[17:22] <Pici> lubse: Please use a different channel for testing stuff like that.  #ubuntu-offtopic perhaps
[17:22] <danand> tatyawinchu - type "ls iso" after to see if the contents of that iso have been mounted ok
[17:22] <bullgard4> /etc/boot/menu.lst includes lines that start with '#'and others with '##'. What does this mean? 'info grub' did not tell me.
[17:22] <tatyawinchu> danand:  nothing .. still the iso folder is empty
[17:22] <burkmat> bullgard4, they're comments.
[17:22] <adamt> how do i make metacity and compiz use my twinview setup in a sensible way? (ie. not opening popups in the middle of the two screen....)
[17:22] <Lartza_> luybse: sry
[17:22] <ghostlines> does anyone know how to monitory user activity history on ubuntu-server?
[17:22] <bullgard4> burkmat: Please tell me why there two sorts of comments.
[17:22] <burkmat> bullgard4, the computer ignores anything preceeded by # when it reads the file.
[17:23] <tatyawinchu> danand:  no wait !! i messed up
[17:23] <Hisotaso> when copying files from my ubuntu box to windows box over local network, i get "error access denied", but it will work if i hit retry repeatedly, any ideas?
[17:23] <levander> I've enabled automatic security updates in "Software Sources".  Why every time I log in is there still that message in the panel saying there are "updates available"?
[17:23] <burkmat> bullgard4, no clue, that's just the way it's been every time I
[17:23] <Lartza_> i think this is problem of mine: futex(0xb7bafab8, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL)  = ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted)
[17:23] <burkmat> bullgard4; -I've seen the file...
[17:23] <bullgard4> burkmat: Thank you for explaining.
[17:23] <abhay> how to check my buidin web camera whether it is working or not
[17:23] <levander> Hisotaso: It is possible your network connection is flaky?  A lot of times when you have to retry a lot, it's networking connections.
[17:24] <bluefox83> ok, for some reason, without warning my edges and bars around everything just went *poof* whats the key combo to make the run dialog pop up?
[17:24] <tatyawinchu> danand:   it says no such file
[17:24] <tatyawinchu> danand this is what i typed in terminal ---->   sudo mount -o loop /media/SATA5/Downloads/DVD-\live\concerts/RAMMSTEIN\LIVE\CONCERTS.iso iso
[17:24] <shaun> Alt + F2 for Run dialog.
[17:24] <levander> bluefox83: You mean you want a command line?  If so, Ctrl-Alt-F1 is one way.
[17:24] <Hisotaso> levander: how would i test that?
[17:25] <levander> Hisotaso: very carefully
[17:25] <JC_Denton_> Is there a way to remove pending jobs from apt? I removed mono and now my apt is broken. I asked on the forums too but no one was able to help me http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=707608&highlight=mono+broke
[17:25] <Lartza_> what is ERESTARTSYS?
[17:25] <levander> Hisotaso: I don't know, something like that I'd just have to play with and see if I can see a different error message or something to shed light on.  Like, try alternate ways of doing the same thing.
[17:25] <tatyawinchu> danand:  what did go wrong in that above command ?
[17:25] <cjae> ok if i have two internet connections (two different ips) and lin on one win on the other I need samba to connect and to setup winbox as dynamic dns right?
[17:25] <danand> tatyawinchu - you can press <tab> in the terminal to autocomplete file names.... but i think you missed the space after DVD :) /media/SATA5/Downloads/DVD-\ live\ concerts etc
[17:26] <Lasivian> any recommendations where I should go if I need an old unsupported driver upddated to the current kernel?
[17:26] <bluefox83> levander, no i don't want command line, i need a run dialog to come up so i can launch emerald
[17:26] <Lasivian> i'd pay to have it done, but I don't know who could accomplish it
[17:26] <Lartza_> what is ERESTARTSYS?
[17:26] <shaun> Alt + F2 is the GK Run dialog.
[17:26] <seb962> Velovinx?
[17:26] <shaun> *GTK
[17:27] <tatyawinchu> danand:  ^^ retrying
[17:27] <Hisotaso> levander: i just figured it out...i think, i was copying to the drive on my windows box via a mount point that is automatic on startup in my media folder, by actually going through the network and browsing to the windws box it seems to work great. I guess the mount point is only good for viewing or copying small files.
[17:27] <zxy_64_> i need to make icedtead work with firefox on amd64 (64 bit kubuntu installed - 7.10) -- package installed ok, but java still doesnt work
[17:27] <zxy_64_> help appreciated
[17:27] <tatyawinchu> danand:  is the tab thing working now ?
[17:27] <levander> JC_Denton_: I'd try a 'sudo dpkg -a' and see if that fixes anything.
[17:28] <danand> tatyawinchu - if you start to type the name and press <tab> the terminal will try to autocomplete the filename for you ie if i want to look at a file called "data 1.txt" i would type less da, press tab and that should auto complete to "less data\ 1.txt" but without the quotes
[17:28] <abhay> how to check my webcam
[17:29] <levander> Hisotaso: yeah, that sounds like flaky networking...  if you can only copy small files...  like maybe it's so flaky, halfway through a big transfer it chokes, gives up, and gives you the error?
[17:29] <velovinx> seb962 sorry, i have never installed grub manually before...i was googling
[17:29] <danand> !webcam | abhay

[17:30] <osmen> any one know how to use 3D desktop
[17:30] <osmen> ???
[17:31] <whyameye> I have a v4l2 built-in webcam. Where would I find that device in the directory structure i.e. /dev/???
[17:31] <tatyawinchu> danand:   yes that <tab> works , so this is the command given which still says file not found .. command on next line

[17:32] <Hisotaso> what is the best media player, or seperate video and audio players, for linux?
[17:32] <vallhalla81> bluefox83: there is a screenlet
[17:33] <bluefox83> vallhalla81, do i need to install screenlets to get that key combo to work?
[17:33] <danand> tatyawinchu - the spaces shouldn't be replaced by the "\" character. "\" should go before them ie a file named "file 1.txt" should be entered as "file\ 1.txt" but without the quotes
[17:33] <tatyawinchu> danand:   aaaaah !!
[17:34] <danand> tatyawinchu - :)
[17:34] <danand> tatyawinchu - the use of <tab> should put them in automatically for you :)
[17:34] <tatyawinchu> danand:  still not gonna quit !! i am going to do a VERY STRONG effort to be a linux user for sure .. have been MS user since windows 3.1 .. and may be 20 mins old in linux :) .. great to have u around bhai

[17:37] <domherre> Will check it out thanks neverblue

[17:39] <tatyawinchu> danand:  ok we are one step ahead .. the command now goes correctly , there IS an EMPTY iso directory in the same folder but now the error is mount point iso does not exist .. so i think i have to give that path fully too ?
[17:39] <velovinx> !ask > RickFX

[17:41] <tatyawinchu> danand:  if i just say iso, what is the default path considered in linux ? desktop ?
[17:41] <centaur5> Joxo: You have to create one with smbpasswd -a
[17:41] <neverblue> lubse, its set to Alt-F1, by default
[17:42] <neverblue> lubse, 'show the panel menu'
[17:42] <NinjaPlimsoles> tatyawinchu, the default path is wherever your running the command from

[17:42] <bazhang> RickFX: what are you trying to do? if it is for office apps etc then its fine; if you want gaming you should probably just dual boot
[17:42] <filthpig> (er, not supposed to hit enter there oO)

[17:44] <RickFX> i want to use my artist tools, but this laptop is already kinda sow so i fear it could be too laggy
[17:44] <tatyawinchu> danand:  IT WORKED !!  there are 2 files there now in ISO folder !! HURRAY !!

[17:46] <filthpig> Hi, I installed ubuntu on my mom's laptop a while ago, and she's using it happily. The only issue she has is that scrolling with the touchpad doesn't stop sometimes. She's just supposed to scroll down one or two jumps, and suddenly it's just rocketing downwards.. It's an old HP Compax dx9060 or smth...   In Nautilus, I get a pop up that seems to indicate that Nautilus has no idea that it is on a work group (it asks for a domain), and then it continually fails.
[17:48] <bazhang> filthpig: what about setting the touchpad sensitivity

[17:55] <danand> crispy_chunks - that error _usually_ means that the module you are trying to insert is possibly not for that kernel.
[17:56] <danand> crispy_chunks - why that would be the case ... i don't know :(
[17:56] <frank_> Bigg400: are you sure it should work with amd64?
[17:56] <Bigg400> frank_: yes apparently so
[17:57] <hischild> Why is ubuntu only recognizing one of two cores of my cpu? cpuinfo says --> http://pastebin.com/f59d55e64
[17:57] <bazhang> hischild: what kernel do you have
[17:57] <danand> crispy_chunks - type uname -r in the terminal and check your using that kernel version.

[17:58] <bazhang> hischild: you need the generic
[17:58] <hischild> bazhang, alright ... let's search =
[17:58] <hischild> =)
[17:58] <hischild> tnx
[17:58] <beerdeaap> osmen: you mean how to enable it ?

[17:59] <danand> demorez213 - are you compiling a package from source?
[17:59] <demorez213> >danand I think I was missing a package so I shall see if this time it makes all nice nice with me
[17:59] <demorez213> >danand thanks in advance if all goes well
[17:59] <demorez213> >danand if not still thanks and potentially more harassment on my part ;)
[18:00] <danand> demorez213 - you might want to install build-essential. :)
[18:00] <osmen> I have Graphic Card intel 945
[18:00] <osmen> does it work with 3D ?
[18:00] <demorez213> >danand yeah... that was the package I believe was missing ;)
[18:00] <hischild> bazhang, this is bad for my uptime :( having to reboot
[18:00] <danand> demorez213 - ok. good luck
[18:00] <beerdeaap> osmen: if you have compiz installed and your 3d card is working (with a proper driver). You can enable it through System-> preferences->appearence-> visual effects

[18:02] <Jack_Sparrow> sportman, persistent home
[18:02] <demorez213> >danand now this is really noob/stupid q
[18:02] <sportman> it would be easier just to save hte chnages
[18:02] <sportman> instead of the whole os
[18:02] <sportman> to the pen drive
[18:02] <abhay> how to get command line dropping from desktop top
[18:02] <bazhang> sportman: easy on the enter key ;]
[18:02] <demorez213> >danand is there a way I can install aps/packages to my thumb drive (using a tiny computer with only 6 gigs and want nifty other stuff
[18:03] <Jack_Sparrow> sportman, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=9893

[18:04] <bazhang> cjae: is yours? ;]
[18:05] <danand> demorez213 - hmm... not sure. packages etc are usually all put in the /usr dir. not sure trying to give yourself more room with a usb drive would help you out in that regard
[18:05] <beerdeaap> osmen: you should install compiz (do you know how to install packages ? )
[18:05] <bazhang> osmen: that card will supported limited 3D yes
[18:05] <cjae> bazhang, don't know phoned Walmart and ppl there are totally ridiculous

[18:05] <Viden> Does anyone know why the -d or -display switches are not working in FF3b3? I guess i should point out this is Ubuntu 7.10 ... and other applications do work with the switches.
[18:05] <osmen> ok but why it didn't work??
[18:06] <demorez213> >danand the build on the other problem worked perfectly thanks!
[18:06] <osmen> can we talk in private chat plz
[18:06] <bazhang> osmen: better to do it in channel

[18:08] <danand> demorez213 - glad you got that to work =) like i said, not sure that a usb drive could help you out in that situation. not without a _lot_ of reconfiguration of your system. You could always buy a cheap hard drive with bigger storage :)
[18:08] <bazhang> bbonora: cs2 will work in wine apparently--you can check the #winehq appdb for more info

[18:09] <vallhalla81> does any one know how to upgrade the firmware version of a mp3 player device while using ubuntu (i have the update file )
[18:09] <mohbana> how can i remove a package without its dependencies?
[18:09] <bbonora> ubotu  Thanks for the info I will check it out
[18:09] <erUSUL> mohbana: sudo apt-get remove package
[18:09] <bazhang> hischild: you installed the generic kernel? and the second core is still not seen?
[18:10] <demorez213> >danand seems synaptec doesn't give me much leeway there is there an apt-get command that's easy
[18:10] <hischild> alright ... switching to the generic kernel didn't change anything. name -a gives http://pastebin.com/f6a016c0c, cpuinfo gives http://pastebin.com/f4d7c2fa3
[18:10] <hischild> bazhang,  ^
[18:10] <frank_> mohbana: are you talking about removing a package without removing the packages that depend on it?
[18:10] <vulcar> I am looking to uninstall pigidin, evolution and a few other applications but the only way to do so is to remove its dependicies and to remove those it causes errors with the network manager. Am I missing something? I have tried to use the package manager and the snyaptic package manager.
[18:11] <mohbana> frank_, yes
[18:11] <Viden> Can anyone help with this error when trying to force FF3 to start in another Xsession:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58649/
[18:11] <sales> hello people
[18:11] <danand> demorez213 - like i said, i'm not sure thats possible. most apps have quite rigid rules about where they should be installed to - ie executables in /usr, config files in /etc/ and so on. to install them to another location would require a lot of effort to make it work
[18:11] <wigren> hi sales
[18:11] <frank_> mohbana: while that is possible, it would be a very bad idea
[18:11] <mohbana> frank_ yes i know but how do i do it?
[18:11] <demorez213> >danand so i'd most likely have to use an ext. hd as my boot drive as well?
[18:12] <demorez213> but i just got it to where I like it :-( j/k
[18:12] <frank_> mohbana: honestly I'm not sure exactly how either.    man apt-get   to see apt-get documentation.
[18:12] <wigren> can i save a file in a virtual machine and then access it again later with the host operating system?
[18:13]  * N3bunel saluta
[18:13] <frank_> mohbana: or maybe you have to use dpkg somehow... not sure
[18:13] <sales> wigren yes if you save to a partion readable by both systems
[18:14] <danand> demorez213 - you could do that yes. you could copy/clone your current hard drive to the new external drive using dd. then resize with gparted to make use of the extra space. you would also need to install grub on the mbr of the external drive i believe
[18:14] <wigren> sales, thank you
[18:14] <hischild> bazhang, you see why i'm so confused? as you can see by the name, it's a dual core. It always showed up as dual core. Windows recognizes it as dual core. Yet ubuntu stopped recognizing it as dual core :(
[18:14] <retro71> durring the alternate install of 7.1 32bit, i recieve an error durring the base install: "No installable kernel was found in the APT sources" my install haults there. how can i overcome this? is it a bad image? i ran the md5sum and cd check before install, both came back ok.
[18:14] <bazhang> hischild: and it even show the name correctly; that is so weird
[18:14] <danand> demorez213 - that again would present a bit of effort to get working... perhaps a reinstall to external hd would be better
[18:15] <demorez213> >danand hmmm perhaps I'll make due with my tiny hd i got my web browser, i got my one music proggy and I have a chat client...
[18:15] <hischild> bazhang, yeah ... and it really slows down since it's only using a single core (though i must admit, it's amazingly silent)
[18:16] <max_> Alright. Can someone help me with sound issuess?
[18:16] <danand> demorez213 - you could always try a different distro if your really pushed for space and system resources - Damn Small Linux is very good ...
[18:16] <Szaln> hi, is there any problem in installing 32 bits printer driver in 64bits ubuntu? i think there is only one lpr and cups driver... if it is useful, i succesfully printed in 32 and 64 winxp
[18:16] <kraypius> hi all. Im having trouble getting talkd running. i try running in.talkd and it tells me i need to start it via inetd. in inetd.conf i have:talk            dgram   udp     wait    nobody.tty      /usr/sbin/in.talkd      in.talkd . I then sent inetd the hup signal but talkd is still not running. i tried restarting inetd also with no luck
[18:17] <frank_> hischild: just to be clear you're talking about real dual core and not HT?
[18:17] <demorez213> >danand true but my major hope was to clear as much wasted space out of my ubuntu distro, drop in the rt kernel and load it up with all the neat little ubuntu studio packages ;)
[18:17] <hischild> frank_, AMD only has dual cores, and no HT. Also, it's not 2 cpu's, it's 2 cores
[18:17] <hischild> frank_, http://pastebin.com/f4d7c2fa3
[18:18] <danand> demorez213 - if your looking for a studio distro, you could try dynabolic - that runs from live cd and is supposed to be good for music studio
[18:19] <eatatjoes> hey i just installed ubuntu 7.10 on an external harddrive( where i have it partitioned into 3 sections, drives e, f, and g... its connected using firewire) and when i go to boot it i get an "error 21" which means that it cannot recognize the drive. On my main harddrive I have XP installed and i had to do a fixmbr (master boot record) to get back into windows? any ideas? Also when im in xp and i have the external HD it doesnt sho
[18:19] <demorez213> >danand no cd drive... yet
[18:19] <demorez213> >danand no worries you helped me so much today!
[18:19] <Bigg400> is there a libdlna 64 bit deb anyone would know of.... or a way of running the i386 ?
[18:19] <danand> demorez213 - np :)
[18:19] <jstrunk> How can I install sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-bin noninteractively?
[18:20] <frank_> hischild: hell I see two cores from my HT Pentium 4 and I thought HT was supposed to be disabled by default for security reasons
[18:20] <demorez213> >danand I figure ardour, hydrogen, puredata, and a few other things will still fit (psycle hopefully) and that'll actually serve almost all my purposes
[18:20] <demorez213> so long as I can get puredata to recognize my webcam and hid objects
[18:20] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, error 21 just means something has messed up with Grub
[18:20] <eatatjoes> any idea how i can fix that?
[18:20] <hischild> frank_, HT is for intel only, as you can see from my cpuinfo it's an amd ;-)
[18:20] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, reinstall the grub bootloader to your MBR
[18:21] <jstrunk> The require a license to be presented and accepted. I need to install this on hundreds of computers.
[18:21] <eatatjoes> NinjaPlimsoles> how can i go about that?
[18:21] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, dont make any changes to your hardware layout without first telling Grub :)
[18:22] <sportman> thanks for the help guys, i am going to reboot now, should work :)
[18:23] <eatatjoes> so i should boot from the ubuntu 7.10 live cd and chose what option to reinstall the grub bootloader
[18:23] <velovinx> jstrunk How about just copying the files to each computer?
[18:23] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, sudo grub, then type root (theharddiskthathasgrubonit) eg. hd0,1
[18:23] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, so for example: root (hd0,1)
[18:24] <eatatjoes> okay
[18:24] <eatatjoes> but how do i get to a command prompt to do that?
[18:24] <dampfyente> hi everyone, could u please help me? i want to play the phun-game (check out http://youtube.com/watch?v=0H5g9VS0ENM) and the README sais You need to get libSDL. Also, try to run the program like this: "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./phun" ..... i have libsdl-image1.2 and libsdl1.2debian installed, is this enough? i tried to execute the above command in a konsole (using correct path) but nothing happened..            btw i'm ubuntu-n00b, usin
[18:24] <dampfyente> now
[18:24] <dampfyente> thank u
[18:25] <Cew27> hey everyone just wondering im having some glitches with compiz on kde when i rotate the cube it jerks back to another desktop
[18:25] <jstrunk> velovinx I am using bcfg2 to manage the os and packages on my heterogeneous network. I'd also like to be able to upgrade these packages in the future.
[18:25] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, after doing that, then type: setup (whereyouwantgrubtogo)
[18:25] <eatatjoes> should grub be on the main HD or my external?
[18:25] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, main HD
[18:26] <credible> Cew27: make sure you don't have Desktop Plane or Desktop Wall enabled somehow
[18:26] <eatatjoes> okay thanks
[18:26] <eatatjoes> if for some reason that doesnt work, to get back into windows just do the fixmbr agin?
[18:27] <Cew27> credible, no i dont but now when i set 4 workspaces i only have 3
[18:27] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, yeah just do fixmbr fixboot and then come back here and ask me for more help :P
[18:27] <dampfyente> sorry, ill just post it a second time so u can read it better...
[18:27] <dampfyente> 	hi everyone, could u please help me? i want to play the phun-game (check out http://youtube.com/watch?v=0H5g9VS0ENM) and the README sais You need to get libSDL.

[18:27] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, want me to go over the instructions again one more time?
[18:27] <credible> Cew27: don't use the slider, use the spin button the right (there was a bug in the slider)
[18:28] <bazhang> Cew27: how are you setting the workspaces? should be via ccsm general virtual horizontal desktops
[18:28] <eatatjoes> can i pm u?
[18:28] <hanophix33> i cant seem to get amarok as my default player
[18:28] <Cew27> bazhang, credible im setting them via ccsm
[18:29] <dampfyente> yeah, how do u set default applications anyway?
[18:29] <credible> Cew27: but don't use the slider since it has an off-by-one bug in it
[18:29] <bazhang> dampfyente: in preferred applications
[18:29] <credible> it's been fixed for the next release
[18:29] <eatatjoes> NinjaPlimsoles> so i should boot from the live cd, open terminal, then type sudo grub, then root (hd that grub has it on, in my case the ext), and setup (main hd, not external)?
[18:29] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, exactly :)
[18:30] <eatatjoes> alright ill be back (regardless of it works) thanks
[18:30] <dampfyente> thank you bazhang.. could u also help me with my other problem?
[18:30] <NinjaPlimsoles> eatatjoes, the root and setup hard drives are the same, so hd0,1 would be used for both for example
[18:30] <VeNoM-work> to install a .sh you just need to type sudo *directory*file* right?
[18:30] <eatatjoes> ok
[18:30] <bazhang> dampfyente: I can try; no promises though ;]
