[00:17] <New2Ubuntu> i erased the quiet splash option on boot. i can see the errors, just can't log them!
[00:17] <ikonia> josh_: just find general broken packages ?
[00:17] <Daisuke_Laptop> okay, how (again) do i find out what's using a particular module?
[00:17] <ikonia> New2Ubuntu: try to note down one,
[00:18] <josh_> in that in synaptic
[00:18] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: modules only work for specific hardware
[00:18] <josh_> is*
[00:18] <cubexombi> put Section "Extensions"~Option "Composite" "Enable"~EndSection into the bottom of your xorg where ~=Enter
[00:18] <New2Ubuntu> yep. i'm half-way with the alt disk. i'll give that a try first.
[00:18] <ikonia> josh_: not sure I follow, do you have a package you want to check ?
[00:18] <Scunizi> ikonia, under "Edit" there is a "Fix Broken Packages" option
[00:18] <Daisuke_Laptop> ikonia: thank you for that bit of wisdom, but that's not what i asked.
[00:18] <Auctionedllama> Pelo- I'm back into guie.. now what mate?
[00:18] <crdlb> malocite: actually, you just need to remove the Section "Extensions" entirely
[00:18] <josh_> no it just said in synaptic that i had a broken package or file and i dont know where to look
[00:19] <josh_> there is a crap load of files in there
[00:19] <Scunizi> ikonia, sorry wrong nick
[00:19] <crdlb> malocite: since composite is enabled by default
[00:19] <malocite> crdlb: From the xorg?
[00:19] <Daisuke_Laptop> i would like to find out what's using hci_usb
[00:19] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: what is the question then
[00:19] <Scunizi> josh_, under Edit there is a "fix broken packages" option
[00:19] <lobazo_> how can i uninstall completelly wine?
[00:19] <crdlb> malocite: from the xorg.conf, yes
[00:19] <New2Ubuntu> i've installed fedora core 8 no problem and the 64 bit version will go live, but won't install. getting frustrated... might stay with windows!
[00:19] <josh_> oh ok ill try that thank you very much
[00:19] <Daisuke_Laptop> ikonia: the question is what i asked - how to find out what's using a particular module
[00:19] <ikonia> New2Ubuntu: we don't support fedora here
[00:19] <cubexombi> crdlb: really, cause it breaks if I don't have iit there
[00:20] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: and if you understood what I said rather than giving me a star response, you'd know
[00:20] <crdlb> cubexombi: not since feisty
[00:20] <New2Ubuntu> yeah, i know.. just saying, for some reason ubuntu isn't coperating with me
[00:20] <malocite> crdlb: restarting x
[00:20] <New2Ubuntu> it seems like the better distro
[00:20] <Daisuke_Laptop> what, that modules only work for specific hardware?
[00:20] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: modules can only be used by specific hardware , so therefore if you have an ipw2000 module loaded for example it can ONLY be used by your intel wirless card
[00:20] <Daisuke_Laptop> that's a big *duh*
[00:20] <ikonia> New2Ubuntu: not interested,
[00:20] <cubexombi> crdlb: this is what I get for "Rolling my own" with the minimal CD then
[00:21] <Auctionedllama> cubexombi- can you help me? pelo seems to be AFK
[00:21] <New2Ubuntu> thanks for the warm welcome!
[00:21] <Daisuke_Laptop> i'm trying to find out what processes are using a particular module
[00:21]  * Daisuke_Laptop facepalms
[00:21] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: processes don't use modules
[00:21] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: what modules are you talking about, kernel modules, xorg modules ?
[00:21] <Daisuke_Laptop> ikonia: let me give you a quick example
[00:21] <Daisuke_Laptop> i have a resume issue on this laptop
[00:22] <christoz> hello how can i roll back the Panel's settings to default values?
[00:22] <Daisuke_Laptop> i have to modprobe -r snd_hda_intel and modprobe it to get sound working after resume
[00:22] <ikonia> ok
[00:22] <Daisuke_Laptop> if amarok is running, i cannot do so, because the module is in use.
[00:22] <cubexombi> Auctionedllama: no sweat. "gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"

[00:23] <crdlb> malocite: run compiz --replace in a terminal
[00:23] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: with that, thats actually "device file" related
[00:23] <Daisuke_Laptop> i should have worded that better
[00:23] <Daisuke_Laptop> yes
[00:23] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: so you know that that module is a "sound" module, so anything using your sound card will need to be shut down

[00:24] <ikonia> Daisuke_Laptop: so in that sort of senario, just work it backwards, eg: module = hardware $X - what software will use hardware $X I'll disalbe it
[00:24] <crdlb> malocite: ah duh, I forgot. fglrx is not on the whitelist in gutsy since the version of fglrx in gutsy is too old for AIGLX
[00:24] <crdlb> malocite: run SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz --replace
[00:24] <Daisuke_Laptop> i've already killed everything bluetooth related
[00:24] <Auctionedllama> if you want me to get rid of splash I already tried
[00:24] <malocite> crdlb: Jeese... everyone knows that :)
[00:24] <GIn_> how do you run a command c1 and then wait 5 seconds and run command c2? in a single line?
[00:24] <cubexombi> is it gone ..
[00:25] <Starnestommy> GIn_: c1; sleep 5s; c2
[00:25] <Auctionedllama> no..
[00:25] <Auctionedllama> Its still there
[00:25] <Auctionedllama> want me to get rid of it?

[00:25] <malocite> crdlb: then what?

[00:25] <Auctionedllama> cube  got rid of it

[00:26] <cubexombi> Auctionedllama: SAve the file and restart
[00:26] <chirag2f4u> dmsuperman: I needed to add some info to my question
[00:26] <Auctionedllama> but my driver isn't activated
[00:26] <Auctionedllama> want me to activate it?
[00:27] <crdlb> malocite: that's not what I said to run ;)
[00:27] <cubexombi> Auctionedllama: It's not a driver issue, its a framebuffer problem at that point, X only loads well after the login process has begun
[00:27] <icesword> hello,hehehe
[00:27] <Auctionedllama> ok
[00:27] <Auctionedllama> restarting
[00:27] <crdlb> malocite: SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz --replace
[00:27] <crdlb> it's case-sensitive
[00:27] <Auctionedllama> also
[00:28] <Auctionedllama> I blacklisted the driver file thingyh
[00:28] <Auctionedllama> forget what its called
[00:28] <cubexombi> once you start seeing text fly by rather than a black screen you can get focus on your next problem. X
[00:28] <Auctionedllama> ok I see text
[00:28] <Auctionedllama> its flapping around
[00:28] <cubexombi> sweet.. so the blackness is gone
[00:28] <Auctionedllama> Uhm
[00:28] <Auctionedllama> Ya its still loading
[00:28] <dmsuperman> flapping...?
[00:28] <Auctionedllama> wait
[00:28] <dmsuperman> wtf?
[00:28] <dmsuperman> :P
[00:28] <Auctionedllama> and it loaded
[00:28] <malocite> crdlb: Ahh... caps :)
[00:29] <Auctionedllama> Its at GUI, but my driver isnt activated so that normally happens
[00:29] <Auctionedllama> but all I saw was text this time so I guess thats good
[00:29] <user1> how to install guest addons for puel version of virtualbox. (i think its must for sharing files/partitions)? or is there any other way to share files? the file menu dont work. i think i need a command line for that?
[00:29] <dmsuperman> user1: you need nonfree i think
[00:29] <malocite> crdlb: hows THIS look http://www.pastebin.org/30474
[00:29] <cubexombi> Auctionedllama: thats cool, I kinda had to live with it during gutsy.. there are ways of getting it to work, but this will at least load better
[00:30] <user1> dmsuperman i have it.
[00:30] <dmsuperman> h/o, lemme look
[00:30] <crdlb> malocite: it's running
[00:30] <Monobi> Hm, I didn't see a #wubi channel so I'll ask here.... how do I increase the space allowed to Ubuntu when I installed with Wubi ?
[00:30] <Auctionedllama> so your saying
[00:30] <Auctionedllama> there is no way to fix this?
[00:30] <malocite> crdlb: Soo... now if I reboot everything will work as normal?  Or I have to run that everytime I start the computer
[00:30] <Auctionedllama> And compiz is only a dream?
[00:30] <crdlb> malocite: to make SKIP_CHECKS persistent, put SKIP_CHECKS=yes in ~/.config/compiz/compiz-manager
[00:30] <crdlb> (create that file)
[00:31] <cubexombi> Auctionedllama: there is, I'm looking for the FBN solution but first .. what kind of video card you got.
[00:31] <malocite> oooo it even works on EXTRA
[00:31] <Auctionedllama> ATI X1650
[00:31] <malocite> crdlb: Now how come there are no options there to modify the effects?  Is that a different program?
[00:31] <dmsuperman> user1, In the main VirtualBox window, while the VM is off, go to Settings, then there's a shared folders tab
[00:31] <cubexombi> figured. I've got an older ATI .. compiz is not a dream
[00:31] <Auctionedllama> Oo ok
[00:31] <Auctionedllama> Swcheet
[00:31] <user1> dmsuperman dont that. all.
[00:31] <Fishscene> Does Ubuntu recognize SLI setups? More specifically NVIDIA Gforce 8800GTS SLI?
[00:32] <Auctionedllama> I saw people who got my card working
[00:32] <Auctionedllama> I am just not managing to do that

[00:33] <malocite> crdlb: Do I have to do that to each user account?
[00:33] <crdlb> malocite: yes
[00:33] <Auctionedllama> so, any solution?
[00:34] <malocite> good thing I asked, I am the admin for this laptop, but its going to my girlfriend with a different user name
[00:34] <dmsuperman> user1, try getting the latest version, I just got it a few days ago and mine has it :s
[00:34] <cubexombi> Auctionedllama: I'm digging.. I want to find the official word on driver support before dragging you around the long way
[00:35] <user1> dmsuperman ose or puel?
[00:35] <Auctionedllama> ok
[00:35] <user1> dmsuperman i have the option too. but i click it and downlaoding is not started

[00:42] <arcanistherogue> Two questions - How do I remove items from my Applications menu in gnome (I installed KDE for a while and it added a lot of extra thing sI dont want) and if I upgrade to 8.04 now how different will it be from the RC tomorrow, will I need to reupdate every single thing or only a few things that caused it to be delayed?
[00:42] <Auctionedllama> thanks mate
[00:42] <josh_> should i just look up a faq on google would that be the easiest way?
[00:42] <Dr_willis> Now ya know why ati is not veryw ell liked under Linux. :(
[00:43] <Dr_willis> but ati promises to do better in the future
[00:43] <cubexombi> Auctionedllama: I've seen it tried more, only to finnaly get it going good luck
[00:43] <Enul132> do i need to download some firewire drivers to get ubuntu to see my firewire card?
[00:43] <Dr_willis> if all else fails. you could try the hardy release see if it works any better with that ati card.
[00:43] <spork969> how do i install brushes in GIMP?
[00:44] <cubexombi> Dr_willis: Ahmen to that.. (loves me the open radeon driver though.. at least IT works form me)
[00:44] <amenado> spork969-> thats not an ubuntu support stuff...maybe #gimp
[00:44] <Scunizi> arcanistherogue, right mouse click Applications and choose edit menus.. from there it should be pretty easy.. just remove checkmarks next to things that you don't want showing up.
[00:44] <narvin> hello. can someone please help me get sound working? I was on Gutsy and just moved to Hardy to try to fix it but it didnt work. error message I get is:
[00:44] <Dr_willis> check  the gimp docs. :)
[00:44]  * cubexombi now only if I could bet my dual head monitor to power on when i tell it to
[00:44] <tom_> can someone help me out? I have an external USB Hard drive. Every time I plug it in, I have to mount /dev/sdb1 etc etc. What tool should I use to automount? I'd like to make this as dummy-proof as possible for the user i'm setting ubuntu up for.
[00:44] <spork969> amenado, k that makes sense, i didnt know if there was a gimp irc channel
[00:45] <Scunizi> !hardy | tom_

[00:45] <narvin> hello. can someone please help me get sound working? I was on Gutsy and just moved to Hardy to try to fix it but it didnt work. error message I get is: No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[00:45] <Scunizi> narvin, see above
[00:45] <amenado> tom_-> read up on making udev rules
[00:45] <narvin> Scunizi, well its the same error i was getting in Gutsy
[00:45] <narvin> so lets pretend i have it
[00:45] <narvin> seems to be the same issue
[00:46] <arcanistherogue> Scunizi, for some reason when I do that the cursor keeps showing the spinning wheel and the menu editor never loads
[00:46] <Scunizi> narvin, Hardy is suppose to be using PulseAudio and not Alsa.. try #ubuntu+1
[00:46] <tom_> amenado: Is it complicated? I only have about an hour left to get this running :-p
[00:46] <kakoonia> I tried to install vmware on ubuntu 7.10, im running a it on a laptop dual core.. and when i tried to install it, i had the message "VMware PLayer cannot be installed on your computer type i386" ?? someone knows why is that? cause it should work... ??
[00:46] <Scunizi> arcanistherogue, not sure how to fix that one.
[00:46] <amenado> tom_-> yes i find udev complicated, not an easy learn
[00:46] <arcanistherogue> Scunizi, thanks for helping though :)
[00:47] <SpudDogg> Can anyone help me out?  I cannot seem to get my computer to read a Sony memory stick.  I can plug in any SD card and it works fine, but 2 Sony sticks and 2 Sony adapters now are not working
[00:47] <tom_> amenado: argh
[00:47] <Scunizi> arcanistherogue, sorry I couldn't do more.
[00:47] <lopin> I'm having problems with mp3 playback.  It's locking up the computer about 30 seconds to a minute into the track...
[00:47] <amenado> tom_-> look in /etc/udev/rules.d for sample rules
[00:47] <noah> i had a process tcp listening on a port; i killed the process and it is quite dead, but the port is still in listening mode... is there some way i can force it?
[00:47] <Dr_willis> SpudDogg,  built in laptop card reader?
[00:47] <tom_> amenado: rules.d is empty
[00:48] <linkmaster03> I am about to install 7.10 Ubuntu for dualboot, I've heard 8.0(4?) is coming out soon. What is noticeable that will change my learning curve when 8 comes?
[00:48] <amenado> tom_-> no way..are you sure?
[00:48] <SpudDogg> Dr_willis:  yes, a toshiba laptop
[00:48] <cubexombi> tom_ http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=2967922#post2967922
[00:48] <lopin> And, trackerd keeps stealing the whole cpu...
[00:48] <Fishscene> linkmaster, there' shouldn't be a "huge" change with Ubuntu 8... just overall improvements and a few more features. It comes out in exactly 7 days
[00:48] <cubexombi> it's for slack but it may suit your need quickly
[00:48] <linkmaster03> ok cool
[00:48] <linkmaster03> thanks Fish
[00:49] <tom_> amenado: nm i'm dumb. It's a dir..not a file. not empty
[00:49] <Fishscene> linkmaster. Check out Ubuntu.com They have a counter on the top-right for the days until 8's luanch :)
[00:49] <Fishscene> launch*
[00:49] <linkmaster03> ye I saw :P
[00:49] <linkmaster03> cheers
[00:49] <Dr_willis> SpudDogg,  Theres some issues/bugs/lack of support with a lot of those. SD cards work. but many of the other cards wont. I have identical issue with my laptop. I use a $5 14 in one usb reader adaptor and they all work.
[00:49] <Munchkinguy> How can I change my default wireless connection?
[00:50] <colR> is it possible to mount my ext3 drive in vista?
[00:50] <Dr_willis> SpudDogg,  the internal thing aparently is not a 'usb' device. its on some other connection. and different latop makers dont follow the same standards it seems
[00:50] <Odd-rationale> !ext3 | colR
[00:50] <ubotu> colR: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[00:50] <SpudDogg> Dr_willis:  ahh ok.  i didnt really think about getting an all-in-one reader...funny think is though:  i have a /dev/dri/card0, but i cannot mount it, apparently it's not a block device
[00:50] <colR> uboto: cheers, i'll try that
[00:51] <Odd-rationale> !thanks | colR
[00:51] <ubotu> colR: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[00:51] <linkmaster03> is it possible the other way around? like, accessing NTFS vista through ubuntu!
[00:51] <linkmaster03> ! =?
[00:51] <linkmaster03> :P
[00:51] <Dr_willis> SpudDogg,  those things can just be.. odd to mess with.   mine shows up as some odd /dev/mmcd019381872  device

[00:54] <colR> uboto: is it possible to virtualize my vista install in ubuntu, or vice versa?
[00:54] <Odd-rationale> linkmaster03: have fun!
[00:54] <dub> know issues with firefox and mozilla playing audio?
[00:54] <linkmaster03> :)
[00:54] <sammyF_> dub, depends on the soundcard you have
[00:55] <Odd-rationale> colR: yes. use virtualbox or vmware
[00:55] <sammyF_> dub, if you have a creative labs Xfi, you might run into problems ... not just in mozilla
[00:55] <glederfein> Is there anyone with some experience with connecting to VPN PPTP servers?
[00:55] <dub> sammyF_, its only the broswers and its intermittant maybe for the last 3 weeks
[00:55] <akirch> AaronMT, aah yes, but I've already read that document and it doesn't speak to adjusting xorg to use 100dpi fonts by default :)
[00:55] <sammyF_> glederfein: do you want to connect to a W2003 server via VPN?
[00:56] <sammyF_> dub, happens only when watching flash movies?
[00:56] <cubexombi> can someone point me to an answer to why my 2nd monitor won't power on? I've been able to get it to switch from external display to my laptop's display, but if I try to use the external Via my xorg. my driver wigs out on me.
[00:56] <dub> sammyF_, possibly
[00:56] <colR> Odd-rationale: thanks. i read a bit on vmare sitr, it talked about a machine image.
[00:56] <tom_> ... ok I think I get it... so I add to fstab and then add my mount command to rc.local? how often will that run?  What about unmounting before removing the drive?
[00:56] <cubexombi> My google-fu is failing me tonight
[00:57] <Scunizi> glederfein, this might help http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/
[00:57] <sammyF_> I installed Hardy Heron beta today, and the compiz open/close etc effects do not work anymore. It's hardly critical, but if someone has an idea what's wrong ...
[00:57] <Scunizi> sammyF_, you need to be on #ubuntu+1 for hardy support
[00:57] <sammyF_> dub, adobe's flash plugin is .. Well .. bitchy
[00:58] <colR> Odd-rationale: does that mean my access to the other os will be limited?
[00:58] <DefineKThyne> I just recently dual-parted with Gutsy and am trying to play a non-encrypted DVD with VLC but it won't play. Any ideas?
[00:58] <tom_> sammyF_: compiz not critical? I beg to differ :-p
[00:58] <AaronMT> !dvd | devinekthyne
[00:58] <ubotu> devinekthyne: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[00:58] <sammyF_> Scunizi: ok, thanks.
[00:58] <Odd-rationale> colR: yes
[00:59] <sammyF_> tom, well ... as much as I like some of compiz's features (expo is just plain great), the window open/close animations fit rather well in the "pure eye candy" category ;)
[00:59] <colR> Odd-rationale: is there any way to have both OSes booted and seamlessly switch between them?
[01:00] <Odd-rationale> colR: nope. just start by dualbooting ubuntu and windows. before too long you will remove windows...
[01:00] <amenado> coIR why such a need?
[01:00] <dmsuperman> How can I tell deskbar where to look for files when I'm searching for them?
[01:00] <khaledm__> i am using latest version of ubuntu (beta)
[01:01] <sjovan> hey, how do you get firefox stop useing the color theme for gnome?
[01:01] <khaledm__> i get an exception while running firefox
[01:01] <AaronMT> Firefox crashes with flash on youtube like crazy in hardy
[01:01] <khaledm__> anyone else has seen similar problem ?
[01:01] <sjovan> i want default firefox colors
[01:01] <cubexombi> anyone in here have a dual monitor setup? I can't get my 2nd screen to power on though X is playing nice with xrandr,
[01:01] <luke__> how do i dual boot
[01:01] <cubexombi> Aaron: yes, yes it does
[01:01] <dmsuperman> !dualboot | luke__
[01:01] <ubotu> luke__: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[01:02] <dmsuperman> Has anybody ever used Launchy in windows?
[01:02] <cubexombi> then again it wasn't great in gutsy either
[01:02] <sammyF_> AaronMT: used to crash as much in Gutsy
[01:02] <AaronMT> I think its a little worse now
[01:03] <AaronMT> I was thinking about trying gnash but I heard its worse
[01:03] <Draggin> Evening again everyone.  I have a funny little problem... Whenever I put a disc in my CD ROM or DVD ROM and it automounts it putting an icon the desktop, if I leave the disc(s) in and reboot, it seems to 'mount' it a second time.  There are two icons for each disc, yet they report the same mount point.  If I right-click and 'eject' a disc, only one icon disappears. Everything still works fine, but it's really annoying...
[01:03] <cubexombi> at least it's progressive at something .. failing
[01:03] <ahave> Hello, I am trying to configure SAMBA in ubuntu... I can see the computer from a windows box, but when i try to acces i get this message: http://img175.imageshack.us/my.php?image=halpqa0.png  Can anyone advise?
[01:03] <AaronMT> Draggin sounds like a gnome bug, did you check if its in launchpad?
[01:03] <sammyF_> AaronMT: hmm .. dunno. been watching videos at arte.fr all day and didn't have any crash. I thought it was actually better than Gutsy
[01:04] <Draggin> AaronMT - I've tried searching, but don't quite know what to enter for the search - any suggestions?
[01:04] <AaronMT> mount icon maybe?
[01:04] <cubexombi> no love in here dor dual monitor issues right now?
[01:04] <Draggin> AaronMT - let me give that a shot...
[01:04] <sammyF_> cubexombi: missed it. what's your problem?.
[01:05] <colR> Odd-rationale: i already have both, and i'd gladly do without windows, but OOo doesn't  support vba yet, and sadly few employers know what open office is, let alone uno
[01:05] <ksb> Hi
[01:05] <cubexombi>  can't get my 2nd screen to power on though X is playing nice with xrandr, as far as resolution changing It just wont power on.
[01:05] <ksb> I have a really quick total noob question for someone
[01:05] <Scunizi> !ask | ksb
[01:05] <ubotu> ksb: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[01:05] <sammyF_> cvbexombi, what card do you use? nvidia?
[01:06] <cubexombi> nah, tis unfortunately an Ati,
[01:06] <ksb> I am installing UBTU FF and need to create a SWAP partition.  Should that be Logical or Primary?
[01:06] <Draggin> AaronMT - all I seem to keep getting is the error I'm referring to, but only with USB discs...
[01:07] <shyster317> sudo apt-get upgrade girlfriend
[01:07] <sammyF_> cubexombi: sigh ... I had an ATI once and got dualscreen to work ... but that was a loooong time ago :/ I guess you tried envy already?
[01:07] <Dr_willis> ksb,  swap can be either one. I tend to make all primary partitions
[01:07] <AaronMT> Well if it sounds similar
[01:07] <b1n0ry> if i'm running hardy beta, when the release is done i should just be able to apt-get update, right?
[01:07] <ksb> Thanks DR.
[01:07] <glederfein> sammyF_, can you help me with the VPN PPTP connection?
[01:07] <AaronMT> b1n0ry yep
[01:07] <b1n0ry> sweet
[01:08] <mooboo1> i plugged in webcam, nothing happend
[01:08] <sammyF_> glederfein: please write the name of the person you're talking to (me in that case) like you just did. that way your messages won't get lost :)
[01:08] <AaronMT> Add its drivers perhaps
[01:08] <cubexombi> sammyF_: nope, card doesn't support the ATI binary driver
[01:08] <sammyF_> cubexombi: outsch
[01:08] <sammyF_> glederfein: so, you want to connect to a Win2003 server?
[01:09] <Bidget> anyone in here been able to get online with steam games?
[01:09] <glederfein> sammyF_ I'm not sure what kind of server it is. All I know is that it's a vpn pptp server.
[01:09] <b1n0ry> Bidget: yes, on my windows machine
[01:09] <b1n0ry> Bidget: if that was a general question regarding the status of the steam network
[01:09] <sammyF_> glederfein: and what it your problem? it should be rather straight forward actually
[01:09] <ricanelite> anyone know if Google Desktop will work in Ubuntu?
[01:10] <Bidget> well b1n0ry I think this is ubuntu why would I be asking about windows?
[01:10] <glederfein> sammyF_ first I installed pptp-linux
[01:10] <doolz> google?
[01:10] <SeaPhor> well I installed and configured vsftpd, but  I cant seem to connect to it, any help?
[01:10] <b1n0ry> Bidget: because i thought maybe you were just asking the status of the steam network
[01:10] <Wolvez> somebody knows tomcat here?
[01:10] <Bidget> nahhh haha
[01:10] <cubexombi> sammyF_: I fall into the ... odd card .. area, If I install old distros it works beutifully, If I roll my own distro with the 9mb minimal install I'm good.. decided I'd try the full release for a change..
[01:10] <ahave> Hello, using ubuntu.. trying to setup a SAMBA share, and i get this error: http://img175.imageshack.us/my.php?image=halpqa0.png   Can anyone advise?
[01:10] <Bidget> Ive finally gotten steam to work but it will connect and then the game will close
[01:10] <tom_> Is there a way to pause output -- like the "pause" dos command?  I'd like to have an icon do a quick ls -l on something, but I don't want my terminal to close when it's done -- I'd like to be able to read it
[01:10] <Bidget> doesn't matter if its hl2, cd, dod, tf2
[01:11] <Bidget> I can connect to the server, but as soon as the motd goes up to display, the game crashes
[01:11] <sammyF_> glederfein: do you have "Terminal Server Client" in the "internet menu" N*
[01:11] <Bidget> its weird
[01:11] <AaronMT> tom_ pipe your command into more
[01:11] <b1n0ry> Bidget: is it an app crash?
[01:11] <AaronMT> ls -al | more
[01:11] <glederfein> sammyF_ yes
[01:11] <Bidget> no steam is still open
[01:11] <sammyF_> cubexombi: I'm afraid I won't be much help then
[01:11] <Bidget> its just the game that crashes
[01:11] <b1n0ry> that is bizarre
[01:11] <AaronMT> !more | tom_
[01:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about more - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:11] <Bidget> yeah I know
[01:11] <sammyF_> glederfein: open it up
[01:11] <Bidget> I would think that the entire thing would go down
[01:11] <b1n0ry> wine-x?
[01:12] <glederfein> sammyF_ ok, now what?
[01:12] <Bidget> and it is a loooonnnngggg console error
[01:12] <tom_> AaronMT: that will only pause if it fills the screen though, right? what if there are only two files in there
[01:12] <tom_> AaronMT: I just | less and it works
[01:12] <Bidget> Im on wine 9.59
[01:12] <sammyF_> glederfein: add the server you want to connect to
[01:12] <cubexombi> sammyF_: tis all good. I'd just like some more realestate on my deasktop
[01:13] <noah> i just noticed that the process that owned the port is listed in ps like so: 12978     1984  1955   634 63.5  0.0      0     0 ?        Zl   Apr04 11900:32   [java] <defunct>
[01:13] <sammyF_> cubexombi: I hear you. I'm currently using 2880x1200 of that realestate, and sometimes it's not enough ;)
[01:13] <glederfein> sammyF_ under "Domain" in "General"?
[01:13] <Bidget> on another note.... has anyone had any luck programming the media keys on a logitech g15 keyboard?
[01:13] <Jack_Sparrow> !keys
[01:13] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts
[01:13] <Bidget> keytouch... ok
[01:13] <chelz> ooh nice
[01:13] <chelz> keytouch looks nifty
[01:14]  * cubexombi shakes fist
[01:14] <cubexombi> heheh
[01:14] <sammyF_> glederfein: type the url of the server you want to connect to in computer, your username, and the domain
[01:14] <chelz> finally gonna use my F keys
[01:14] <Bidget> ok so Jack_Sparrow Im in the keyboard shortcuts... how do I get rid of a shortcut
[01:14] <sammyF_> cubexombi: but with a nvidia card, I had it real easy
[01:14] <glederfein> sammyF_ but I can't find the PPTP VPN protocol there...
[01:14] <Starseed> bout to make the plunge to 8.04 .. should be good
[01:14] <Bidget> Jack_Sparrow, the key Im wanting to use for play/pause is already being taken by pause so Im wondering how to void out a keyboard shortcut entry
[01:15] <Bidget> Jack_Sparrow, oh wow Im retarded, never mind hahahahaha
[01:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Bidget, Sorry, but very busy elsewhere.... all I can say is read the info on that link.
[01:15] <b1n0ry> hmm.. lots of themes to make linux look like mac, not a whole lot to make it look like windows
[01:15] <nooga> :>
[01:15] <AaronMT> yuck who would want too
[01:15] <Bidget> Jack_Sparrow, no man the instruction was like right on their Im blind today I guess hahahaha
[01:15] <nooga> cus OSX roxorz
[01:15] <sammyF_> glederfein: try it using RDP
[01:15] <cubexombi> sammyF_: too bad this is my laptop
[01:16] <sammyF_> b1n0ry: just make it look like Gnome ;)
[01:16] <Bidget> Jack_Sparrow, thanks though
[01:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Bidget, THought they were.. sorry for the short response
[01:16] <b1n0ry> AaronMT: i want it to look like win 3.1
[01:16] <b1n0ry> ;)
[01:16] <Bidget> hahahahaha
[01:16] <AaronMT> Here is mine http://screenshots.haque.net/screenshots/view/33634/
[01:16] <sky_> morning
[01:16] <glederfein> sammyF_ ok but I don't understand the difference between "Computer" and "Domain". The server's ip is "<IP_ADDRESS>". Where should that go?
[01:16] <Bidget> AaronMT, HOW DID YOU GET THE DOCK
[01:16] <Bidget> AaronMT, IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THAT EVERYWHERE AHHH
[01:16] <sammyF_> in Computer
[01:17] <sammyF_> glederfein: in Computer
[01:17] <b1n0ry> heh, wish i could be running compiz
[01:17] <nooga> ;>
[01:17] <LjL> !caps | Bidget
[01:17] <ubotu> Bidget: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[01:17] <b1n0ry> Bidget: compiz docker, probably
[01:17] <nooga> there are some compiz plugins, which implement OSX functionality
[01:17] <nooga> like expo
[01:17] <Bidget> I wasnt shouting I was just typing in uppercase....
[01:17] <Bidget> ah yeah I have the expo one
[01:17] <b1n0ry> Bidget: on irc, that's shouting
[01:18] <glederfein> sammyF_ ok I clicked "connect" and the window just closed.
[01:18] <Fdisk93> hello is it ok to hang out and read up ??
[01:18] <Bidget> I see...
[01:18] <nooga> this is REALLY comfortable, i just can't work without it
[01:18] <glederfein> sammyF_ is it connected?
[01:18] <sammyF_> glederfein: oO ... that ... is ... weird
[01:18] <b1n0ry> whenever i start compiz on this system the screen goes to crap. i get the left 3/4 of the screen look fine but the right 1/4 turns all white and leaves "remnants" when things cross it
[01:18] <b1n0ry> probably because i'm on 16:9 resolution
[01:18] <sammyF_> glederfein: no. it should have opened a window
[01:18] <sammyF_> glederfein: one se
[01:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Fdisk93, Certainly.. if you want a specific subject you can access the logs of the channel too.
[01:18] <Draggin> AaronMT - I'm curious myself - which docker is that you're using? It looks much nicer than the gDeskLets docker...
[01:18] <Shuggle> is there any way to install a newer version of bcm43xx?
[01:18] <Fdisk93> thank you
[01:19] <nooga> i run compiz on 32" lcd touchscreen connected via HDMI, using Intel GMA 915G
[01:19] <glederfein> sammyF_ well, what do you suggest I do?
[01:19] <croddy> nooga that is some bling
[01:19] <Auctionedllama> Hey mates, what is the command to install fglrx?
[01:19] <bonhoffer> how do i force a re-install: ie (sudo apt-get install emacs22)
[01:19] <Auctionedllama> ?
[01:19] <nooga> croddy, and that LCD stands vertically
[01:19] <nooga> xD
[01:19] <croddy> apt-get install --reinstall packagename bonhoffer
[01:20] <bonhoffer> croddy: thanks!
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Auctionedllama, sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[01:20] <Auctionedllama> Thanks jack
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[01:20] <b1n0ry> is compiz bugs on 16:9 common?
[01:21] <Bidget> hey AaronMT what did you use to get the dock?
[01:21] <glederfein> sammyF_ ok now I have a window with "An error has occored"
[01:21] <sammyF_> glederfein: you sure that the server is up?
[01:21] <Gizmo> help
[01:21] <sammyF_> glederfein: I can't ping it
[01:21] <nooga> b1n0ry: didn't notice any
[01:21] <Auctionedllama> Ok, it says its installed, but whenever I run the sudo modprobe fglrx command it doesn't show up
[01:21] <Auctionedllama> any halp?
[01:21] <Alex6691> Hi, i have just installed wine i think its the newest version,and i installed Grand theft auto onto ubuntu through wine but when i open the game, it lag's, and it wont open full screen, its just REALLY slow.

[01:22] <Dr_willis> Alex6691,  ati video card?
[01:22] <Moridin333> alex6691 did you install from ubuntu repo or winehq repo?
[01:22] <Alex6691> Well i installed wine through Synaptic
[01:22] <glederfein> sammyF_ mmm, that could be a problem....
[01:22] <Auctionedllama> Uhm
[01:22] <Auctionedllama> Jack_sparrow- its all mesa
[01:22] <wooting> can someone help me get sound working? i get an error when i try to double click on the sound icon: No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[01:22] <sammyF_> glederfein: pretty much, yes ;)
[01:23] <Moridin333> alex6691 go to winehq and use their repo.  it is a newer version.  also if you have an ati card you're in for some trouble.
[01:23] <sammyF_> wooting: what chipset?
[01:23] <Gizmo> anyone for help on a modem prob
[01:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Auctionedllama, I need to get back to work.. but ask in #Compiz
[01:23] <wooting> sammyF_, im a noob. how do i find it out?
[01:23] <Alex6691> How do i check what kind of video card i have on ubuntu?
[01:23] <glederfein> sammyF_ I'll check if I can connect in windows, if I can't then I'll try it later and if I still have problems I'll be back.
[01:23] <Alex6691> And okay, i'l check on the site
[01:24] <glederfein> sammyF_ thanks for the help anyways!
[01:24] <sammyF_> glederfein: you're welcome
[01:24] <wooting> sammyF_, ?
[01:24] <sammyF_> wooting: well ... is it an onboard soundcard? is it one that's in a PCI slot?
[01:24] <b1n0ry> when i try to enable visual effects and i get 'desktop effects cannot be enabled' where do i find out why?
[01:24] <wooting> sammyF_, its onboard
[01:25] <Bidget> can anyone tell me what iirc means...
[01:25] <LjL> Bidget: if i recall correctly
[01:25] <b1n0ry> if i recall correctly
[01:25] <sammyF_> wooting: laptop or desktop computer?
[01:25] <wooting> sammyF_, if you mean do i have a sound card... its part of my motherboard
[01:25] <Bidget> ah ok thanks
[01:25] <wooting> sammyF_, desk
[01:25] <ChaosParser> Bidget: Internet Relay Chat
[01:25] <Starnestommy> ChaosParser: that's irc, not iirc
[01:25] <Bidget> :D
[01:25] <LordValuemart> Someone PM me if you feel like helping an idiot through setting up evolution, it's giving me all sorts of problems
[01:25] <mutk> Bidget, If I Recal Correctly
[01:26] <ChaosParser> Starnestommy: Eh, I figured they typo'd.
[01:26] <sammyF_> wooting: hmm ... okay, a wild guess would be you have a nforce onboard soundcard
[01:26] <AaronMT> !irssi
[01:26] <ubotu> Irssi is a terminal based IRC client. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi for help.
[01:26] <mutk> Bidget, An alt version - If I Remember Correctly
[01:26] <sammyF_> wooting: ... which sadly means it SHOULD work out of the box
[01:26] <Bidget> ah ok
[01:26] <Bidget> thanks
[01:26] <Bidget> has anyone used enlightenment?
[01:26] <sammyF_> wooting: you don't have ANY sound at all?
[01:26] <LjL> !anyone
[01:26] <Bidget> I installed it but it doesnt show up anywhere hahahaha
[01:26] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:26] <wooting> sammyF_, it used an AMD chip
[01:26] <SeaPhor> LordValuemart: who is your email through?
[01:26] <wooting> sammyF_, no sound
[01:26] <DB42> to whoever fixed the usb quirk for the "microsoft sound system 80" thanks, it works perfectly now
[01:27] <Scunizi> Bidget, you have to log out and then change "sessions" on the login screen
[01:27] <Bidget> thanks Scunizi
[01:27] <Tonisius> how do I search for mysql packages from the apt-get repo?
[01:27] <Shuggle> hi, my wireless card won't go into monitor mode with the bcm43xx driver. is there anything i can do?
[01:27] <Scunizi> Bidget, np.. it's the same thing if you install kubuntu-desktop,, you could have all 3! :)
[01:27] <Alex6691> How do i install wine through the website? because when it says type wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - into terminal, it wont work.
[01:27] <DB42> Tonisius, apt-cache search mysql ?
[01:27] <usser> Tonisius, apt-get search mysql*
[01:27] <Auctionedllama> Hey mates, whenever I run the sudo modprobe fglrx it says its not installed, but yet it is
[01:28] <sammyF_> wooting:  what system is set in the sound preference panel
[01:28] <Auctionedllama> How can I fix this?
[01:28] <b1n0ry> i'm finding all the nvidia-glx stuff, where do i get ati's?
[01:28] <Tonisius> thanks DB42
[01:28] <LjL> Auctionedllama: what exactly does it say?
[01:28] <usser> apt-cache rather
[01:28] <bonhoffer> hey it doesn't look like x11 forwarding is working with my remove ubuntu server -- do i have to install/enable anything on the server side?
[01:28] <Moridin333> alex6691 what's the error message?
[01:28] <phish> I installed ubuntu 8.04 beta and now my sound isn't working _at_all_. What can i do?
[01:28] <wooting> sammyF_,  well i cant open sound preferences by left clicking the icon..
[01:28] <Auctionedllama> It says, not used in xorg.conf so its not loading it
[01:28] <wooting> sammyF_, nothing happens
[01:29] <Alex6691> gpg: can't open `': No such file or directory
[01:29] <croddy> man i hate that error so much
[01:29] <usser> phish, wait for release
[01:29] <phish> usser: in the meantime though?
[01:29] <Auctionedllama> and lsmod also says its no installed
[01:29] <usser> phish, or ask in ubuntu+1
[01:29] <wooting> sammyF_, perhaps it might not located the device
[01:29] <sammyF_> wooting: Sytem->preferences->sound doesn't open anything??
[01:29] <sammyF_> wooting: syStem even ;)
[01:29] <wooting> sammyF_, it does! thanks!
[01:29] <Tonisius> ok, where are the mysql-devel packages?
[01:29] <Tonisius> I can
[01:29] <wooting> sammyF_, what am i looking for here?
[01:29] <Tonisius> I can't seem to find them
[01:29] <Moridin333> sammyF_ try lspci -tv and look for the audio controller
[01:30] <LjL> Auctionedllama, then it's not selected as your Xorg driver. ┬½ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ┬╗ and select it.
[01:30] <Alex6691> gpg: can't open `': No such file or directory
[01:30] <Alex6691> thats my error message
[01:30] <Tonisius> I already got the mysql-server, mysql-client, now I'm just missing the mysql-devel...
[01:30] <Auctionedllama> If I do that then I got a black screen upon bootup with only way around it is to go into recovery and reset it back to vesa
[01:30] <usser> Tonisius, in debian and ubuntu its dev not devel
[01:30] <sammyF_> Moridin333: good call :)
[01:30] <usser> Tonisius, so its most likely something like mysql-server-der
[01:30] <usser> *dev
[01:30] <sammyF_> wooting: what's selected for Sound Playback?
[01:30] <Tonisius> usser: I can't find dev either
[01:31] <LjL> Auctionedllama, then you have some problem that's unrelated with modprobe's error. if the driver is not selected in xorg.conf, then it's normal that modprobe would give you that error.
[01:31] <cube> hey moderator can i post a url in here
[01:31] <Moridin333> alex6691 there should be two things to enter in the terminal check the website again.  one is the repo and one is the key
[01:31] <wooting> sammyF_, auto
[01:31] <Tonisius> E: Couldn't find package mysql-dev
[01:31] <wooting> sammyF_, but if i click test it say audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[01:31] <usser> Tonisius, hang on i'll look it uo
[01:31] <Alex6691>  sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[01:31] <Auctionedllama> alright, so how do I fix this error? if I select the driver in restricted drivers manager I get the black screen
[01:31] <Alex6691> should it be there im puttin in terminal?
[01:31] <Moridin333> sammyF_ thx there's a great pdf called unixtoolbox, that's where I found it.  I use it all the time.  you might want to google it.
[01:31] <sammyF_> wooting: what options to you have?
[01:31] <Tonisius> Thanks, I'm still looking around too
[01:31] <Auctionedllama> and I tried installing the patch from linux, but that did nothing
[01:32] <wooting> alsa esd open pulse
[01:32] <bonhoffer> i ask if i need to install extras to get gtk working (don't i need that for x11)
[01:32] <wooting> sammyF_, alsa esd open pulse
[01:32] <Moridin333> alex6691 give me one sec and I'll try from the website.
[01:32] <Alex6691> thanks.
[01:32] <sammyF_> wooting: okay, try setting it to pulse and do the test again
[01:32] <wooting> sammyF_, audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[01:32] <glederfein> Hey sammyF_ I just checked and I CAN connect to the server on windows!
[01:33] <sammyF_> wooting: then set it to alsa
[01:33] <bonhoffer> sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev might do it ???
[01:33] <wooting> sammyF_, audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[01:33] <glederfein> sammyF_ and I can't ping it either..
[01:33] <sammyF_> glederfein: outsch ... then I'm afraid I'm out of my depth
[01:33] <wooting> sammyF_, all have this same errors
[01:33] <glederfein> sammyF_ you know anyone who can help me?
[01:33] <sammyF_> wooting: okay ... let's do what moritini said ...
[01:33] <sammyF_> wooting: do you know how to open a console?
[01:34] <wooting> yes!
[01:34] <Moridin333> alex6691 first enter wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[01:34] <Narlzac85> I just changed my motherboard processor ram and graphics card without reinstalling and my system has locked up twice. Is there any reason why I should actually reinstall instead of waiting for hardy
[01:34] <sammyF_> glederfein: ask again here, I'm afraid ...
[01:34] <wooting> sammyF_, i opened it
[01:34] <Alex6691> Terminal just said
[01:34] <christo_z> Hello I have a serious problem with the top panel on my Desktom i cannot use system tray icons anymore ...for example i cannot use ktorrent because there is nowhere on my Desktop to see it!!!HELP
[01:34] <Alex6691> ''OK''
[01:34] <Moridin333> alex6691 then sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[01:34] <Moridin333> alex6691 then sudo apt-get install wine
[01:34] <glederfein> please help me connect to a VPN PPTP server!
[01:35] <Auctionedllama> LJL_ any suggestions?
[01:35] <Drod> I compiled from source transmission (borrent client), how do I execute it now?
[01:35] <Alex6691> moridin333 terminal just said OK is that right?
[01:35] <christo_z> Is there any command to roll back Desktop's defaults?
[01:35] <Dr_willis> christo_z,  the 'system tray' is an applet you can add to the panel. Perhaps you removed yours some how.
[01:35] <usser> Tonisius, try this one libmysql++-dev
[01:35] <glederfein> anyone with knowledge in networking...
[01:35] <Moridin333> alex6691 oh wait you already have it install.  in that case you want to sudo apt-get upgrade.
[01:35] <sammyF_> wooting: type lscpci -tv and paste the result at rafb.net ,then tell me the link :)
[01:35] <Moridin333> alex6691 that's right
[01:35] <LjL> Auctionedllama: aside from using the open source drivers, nope. i'm on nvidia.
[01:35] <croddy> "notification area" is the gnome name for the system tray btw
[01:35] <Dr_willis> christo_z,  delete the various .gnome and .gtk dirs is one way to reset the desktop. (a little hard core but doable)
[01:35] <wooting> sammyF_, http://pastebin.ca/988971
[01:35] <Alex6691> Thanks its upgrading.
[01:35] <Tonisius> usser: that's not the right one....
[01:35] <Alex6691> Then my game should run smooth?
[01:35] <sammyF_> wooting: or pastebin ;)
[01:35] <Tonisius> That's the C++ api for MySQL
[01:36] <wooting> sammyF_, my friend works pastebin
[01:36] <sammyF_> wooting: one sec ... checking
[01:36] <wooting> haha
[01:36] <wooting> ok
[01:36] <Auctionedllama> ok where can I get the fglrx driver + xgl?
[01:36] <Moridin333> alex6691 great.  I hope this fixes your problem.  the ubuntu version had a lot of bugs in it.
[01:36] <usser> Tonisius, how about this one libmysqlclient15-dev
[01:36] <javb> hello, look, when i im in front or very near to my access point, my wireless connection works GREAT. but when i am a little bit away (69%, says the signal meter), it will just lose connectivity, ANY IDEA GUYS?
[01:36] <SeaPhor> calc: if you're listening, Thanks for all of your time and help
[01:36] <Alex6691> Haha, i noticed :P.
[01:36] <Alex6691> and thanks
[01:36] <Alex6691> It'd downloading the upgrade now.
[01:36] <Moridin333> alex6691 my pleasure
[01:36] <christo_z> Dr_willis...Doc  i suppose these are hidden folder's at /home...what will be the next step?
[01:36] <Alex6691> Taking quite some time though lol
[01:37] <Dr_willis> christo_z,  . files are considered 'hidden' - remove/rename them.. logout/backin..
[01:37] <Auctionedllama> LJL_ where can I get the fglrx driver +XGL?
[01:37] <Moridin333> alex6691 yea, it's a pretty big change.  wine is one of the few apps that you want to have the absolute newest version imho.
[01:37] <glederfein> can ANYONE help me connect to a VPN server??
[01:37] <Dr_willis> !vpn | glederfein
[01:37] <ubotu> glederfein: From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[01:37] <Fdisk93> i have a question about swapspace
[01:37] <Tonisius> glederfein: did you try google first?
[01:37] <LjL> Auctionedllama: eh? the fglrx driver is just the driver that isn't working for you.
[01:38] <christo_z> Dr_willis...so you mean by logging into my system back new hidden files (of these ) will be created ... right?
[01:38] <Alex6691> Is wine a good program for ubuntu then?
[01:38] <javb> any idea people? :.
[01:38] <bonhoffer> is there any way to test if basic x11 is working?
[01:38] <javb> hello, look, when i im in front or very near to my access point, my wireless connection works GREAT. but when i am a little bit away (69%, says the signal meter), it will just lose connectivity, ANY IDEA GUYS?
[01:38] <sammyF_> wooting: aeh ... I don't see any soundcard in there oO
[01:38] <bonhoffer> do i have to have something other than a bare server installed?
[01:38] <Fdisk93> i have 2gb of ram will i notice any performance loss if i dont use swapspace 32 bit
[01:38] <Dr_willis> christo_z,  if they dont exist gnome will use the system defaults
[01:38] <wooting> sammyF_, i know it has 1! i used it in window
[01:38] <LjL> Alex6691: "a good program for ubuntu", most generic question ever i think
[01:38] <wooting> sammyF_, and it has the green port
[01:38] <sammyF_> wooting: pretty sure it has one
[01:38] <Auctionedllama> LJL_ mhmmh can you link me to a wiki to follow besides ubuntu.com/community/binarydriverhowto/ati?
[01:38] <christo_z> Dri_willis...ok thanks doc brb
[01:38] <Dr_willis> Fdisk93,  i always make at least 512mb swap partition - just in case
[01:38] <Alex6691> Lol
[01:39] <sammyF_> wooting: It just looks like Ubuntu didn't recognize it at all somehow
[01:39] <LjL> Auctionedllama: that's the one that i know
[01:39] <Alex6691> Oh, while im here, is there anyway you can sync iPod's with Rhythmbox?
[01:39] <Moridin333> alex6691 I suppose it depends on what you mean by good.  it has never messed my system up.  But there are many unsupported windows apps.  it's always a work in progress.
[01:39] <wooting> sammyF_, damnit! any way?
[01:39] <Auctionedllama> Oh man
[01:39] <evilbug> what are the applications that are closest to Dreamweaver and Flash?
[01:39] <sammyF_> wooting: one sec ... thinking and trying something out
[01:39] <Alex6691> It support's exe file's so im happy.
[01:39] <LjL> Alex6691: i think so, since the package description of rhythmbox claims iPod integration
[01:39] <Auctionedllama> LJL_ Well, I can't get that to run at all, .. I have been working on this 4 days, as you can imagine this is very frustrating
[01:39] <usser> evilbug, just run flash and dreamweaver last i heard wine support mx2
[01:39] <wooting> sammyF_, thanks. your the best guy
[01:40] <Moridin333> evilbug if you mean a wysiwyg app there are a few in add/remove programs.
[01:40] <elpargo> anyone knows of a program where I can edit the magic numbers of a file, I got this text file but for some reason most programs are reading it as binary.
[01:40] <sammyF_> evilbug: nothing for flash, Bluefish for dreamweaver I'd say
[01:40] <Fdisk93> ive got 1gb set as swap now along with my 4gb of ram 4gb is what i ment to say i had
[01:40] <Alex6691> Well how do i do it? cuz when i connect my ipod it doesnt give me an option or anything.
[01:40] <Dr_willis> Auctionedllama,  ati can be a problem.  basicially you install the fglrx drivers that ati supplies and hope it works...
[01:40] <sammyF_> wooting: nope ... if I was the best I'd already have solved your problem ;)
[01:40] <glederfein> ubotu isn't this ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD) for making a VPN server?
[01:40] <Dr_willis> Auctionedllama,  the next ubuntu release should have updated ati drivers. that may work better.
[01:40] <LjL> elpargo, there is no magic number in a text file. if it's a text file, it means it's a text file. not sure how to put this... a text file is just a sequence of the various ASCII (or Unicode) values for the characters.
[01:40] <yago> hi,
[01:40] <tmccrary> Its-a you! Lorenzo! Mamma Mia!
[01:40] <Auctionedllama> Dr_willis can I get studio for that?
[01:40] <evilbug> thanks!
[01:41] <sammyF_> evilbug: but both runs well in wine
[01:41] <Fdisk93> i know in xp it cant see my entire 4gb but i use no pagefile in windows i notice a little slower performance
[01:41] <yago> I wish ask you something,
[01:41] <Auctionedllama> Dr_willis I just really want to get compiz to work
[01:41] <LjL> tmccrary: you aren't funny. you were also answered in ##linux just after you left.
[01:41] <jrib> elpargo: make sure you didn't set executable permissions on it
[01:41] <yago> can anyone go www.ubuntu-es.org
[01:41] <christo_z> Dri_willis...oops...there aren't any .gnome and .gtk foder in my home dir
[01:41] <elpargo> LjL, the file contains text, but it seems the original editor in which it was made put some random things on the top.
[01:41] <Dr_willis> Auctionedllama,  No idea. - You could go get the RC when it comes out tomorrow and try it.
[01:41] <christo_z> Dri_willis...only some gconf ...e.t.c
[01:41] <Auctionedllama> dr_willis_ RC? Also... should I use ENVY?
[01:41] <mc-george> Hello, I can get the network settings to see my wireless connection, just not use it
[01:41] <Moridin333> auctionedllama if I remember correctly the opensource ati driver will work with compiz but not the one from ati themselves
[01:41] <Auctionedllama> I am just very frustrated D:
[01:41] <Alex6691> How do i sync my ipod in rhythmbox then? because everyone i connect it i cant figure it out.
[01:42] <glederfein> Dr_willis you can help me with my VPN connection problem?
[01:42] <sammyF_> wooting: on an off chance, you might try to reinstall the nvidia-kernel in synaptic
[01:42] <Dr_willis> Auctionedllama,  i would not touch envy at all.
[01:42] <Auctionedllama> Moridin333_ can you link me to this?
[01:42] <Auctionedllama> Dr_willis_ alright mate
[01:42] <elpargo> jrib, 644 and I got 2 files that come from the same person, so I'm almost certain it's her editor.
[01:42] <Moridin333> auctionedllama sure let me look it up real quick.
[01:42] <Dr_willis> christo_z,  those sound about right.  theres a lot of didferent .g* config files and dirs.
[01:42] <LjL> elpargo: well open it in any text editor, and cut the gibberish part
[01:42] <wooting> sammyF_, how to do it?
[01:42] <ari_stress> morning all. is there any "rc.local" in ubuntu?
[01:42] <Dr_willis> glederfein,  i know diddly-squat about vpn. other then the !vpn factoid
[01:42] <Dr_willis> ari_stress,  yes.. /etc/rc.local
[01:43] <ari_stress> Dr_willis: thanks man
[01:43] <Alex6691> Moridin333,  How do i sync my ipod in rhythmbox then? because everyone i connect it i cant figure it out?
[01:43] <Alex6691> everytime*
[01:43] <mc-george> Hello, I can get the network settings to see my wireless connection, just not use it
[01:43] <sammyF_> wooting: open synaptic (system->Administration->synaptic) and search for nvidia-kernel
[01:43] <christo_z> Dri_willis...so is it sage to remove everything related on .g*?

[01:49] <Dr_willis> elpargo,  yep. theres converter tools that can fix it. in my case the First like #!/bin/perl had a CR/LF at the end.. thta made the whole script break. :) took me forger to figure it out
[01:49] <elpargo> phillipsjk256, wrong because AScii is older. you can't be a subset if you where first.
[01:49] <wooting> sammyF_, maybe someway to find out what mothercard i have? and then install the drivers for audio?
[01:49] <n> #ubuntu
[01:49] <javb> has someone here had this bug? (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/153683) and in any way fixed it?
[01:50] <sammyF_> wooting: the nvidia kernel should take care of that ...
[01:50] <Sam827>  When I boot up my dell that is running Gutsy, every time it tells me charge on system batter is low. strike f1... blah blah blah
[01:50] <n> #/j ubuntu
[01:50] <sammyF_> wooting: of course, if you're really unlucky, you have a creative labs xfi onboard
[01:50] <n> hi
[01:50] <Dr_willis> n you are in #ubuntu
[01:50] <Fdisk93> i use metapad txt editer for windows so i dont have those issues
[01:50] <elpargo> Dr_willis, LFCR won't change a text file to be recognized as binary.
[01:50] <sammyF_> wooting: let's try something else
[01:50] <wooting> oks
[01:50] <wooting> okay
[01:51] <sammyF_> wooting: in a console, type "pulseaudio --check"
[01:51] <Dr_willis> elpargo,  load it into an editor and see then. :) i havent been paying attention to the convo.
[01:51] <elpargo> Dr_willis, as for the converter sure vim.
[01:51] <LjL> n: /join #channel or /j #channel to join a channel.
[01:51] <Sam827> Please help:  When I boot up my dell that is running Gutsy, every time it tells me charge on system batter is low. strike f1... blah blah blah
[01:51] <sammyF_> wooting: just in caseyou don't know : you can autocomplete lines by pressing TAB once in a console
[01:51] <phillipsjk256> elpargo since when?  UTF was molded after ASCII to be backwards compatible.
[01:52] <LjL> elpargo, the concept of "subset" has never been defined based on age... ASCII *is* a subset of UTF-8, that's basically why UTF-8 exists to begin with
[01:52] <sammyF_> wooting: so pulseaudio isn't running
[01:52] <Moridin333> zero__ is there a key to change from crt to lcd like fn F4
[01:52] <wooting> sammyF_, how can i make it
[01:52] <elpargo> Dr_willis, file, and every crappy text editor. and/or tool.
[01:52] <Auctionedllama> MAN, turns out the x1600 can't use the open source drivers.. so I think I'm screwed
[01:53] <sammyF_> wooting: try "pulseaudio --log-level=4 --check"
[01:53] <zero__> mordidin, let me check that
[01:53] <wooting> I: main.c: We're in the group 'pulse-rt', allowing real-time and high-priority scheduling.
[01:53] <wooting> I: main.c: Daemon running as PID 5434
[01:53] <Moridin333> auctionedllama unfortunatly nvidia is the way to go in linux right now.
[01:53] <zero__> Moridin333, ill check,  but i still want my 1440x900 back on my laptop display
[01:53] <Dr_willis> elpargo,  you sure its not been made executable?   Im missing the core problem.. if its an ascii file.. do whatever ya want to it and be done with it.. :)
[01:53] <elpargo> LjL, sry but UTF-8 doesn't exists because of ASCII, unicode exists because the world is a big place bigger than 256 characters.
[01:53] <Moridin333> zero__ if you press that a few times it might work
[01:54] <LjL> elpargo: no, that is the reason that *Unicode* exists. UTF-8 is just an encoding of Unicode.
[01:54] <wooting> sammyF_, i pasted it above
[01:54] <sammyF_> wooting: ah ... now I think we're in business
[01:54] <Auctionedllama> moridin333_ alrighty, I am just, really feeling down D:, but I am wondering, how last night before I formatted how I got my 1400x900 resolution working
[01:54] <Zackymc_k> Is there a way to search for a specific file on my vista partition
[01:54] <wooting> sammyF_, :)
[01:54] <elpargo> Dr_willis, yea I'm opening it up and all I get is garbage.
[01:54] <sammyF_> wooting: are you using 8.04 or 7.10 ?
[01:54] <wooting> sammyF_, 8.04 because same issue in 7.10
[01:54] <wooting> thought it fix it
[01:54] <elpargo> LjL, ok u got a point on the utf-8 part. :)
[01:54] <beener> how do i get ndiswrapper to work
[01:55] <LjL> elpargo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8
[01:55] <nickrud> Zackymc_k  find <windows partition> -iname filespec
[01:55] <Moridin333> auctionedllama if you're comfortable with command line backup you xorg.conf and try different drivers in System>Administration>Screens and Graphics
[01:55] <beener> i just reformated from kubuntu to this and i dont want to use the driver thats already here
[01:55] <Dr_willis> elpargo,  thats.. weird.
[01:55] <m0u5e> has hardyRC1 been released yet?
[01:55] <wooting> sammyF_, but also 8.04 fixed video play in youtube. before its broekn
[01:55] <zero__> ok Moridin333, that fixed my external monitor issue, now how to i get back to 1440x900 on m;y laptop?
[01:55] <phillipsjk256> elpargo: just nitpicking, but ASCII has only~127 chars (7 bit) (I read up on UTF-8 when the w3c told me to use it)
[01:55] <LjL> !hardy > m0u5e    (m0u5e, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:55] <m0u5e> i know they delayed it until tomorrow, but... i wonder if its there :X
[01:55] <sammyF_> wooting: one sec ... I have the same problem with pulseaudio, so I'll fix it on my comp and then tell you how to do it :)
[01:55] <elpargo> cat and vim are reading it as text, everything else thinks it's binary.
[01:55] <Dr_willis> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#Unicode
[01:55] <wooting> sammyF_, 1 problem. i need to run
[01:55] <Moridin333> zero__ try Preferences>Screen Resolution
[01:56] <Auctionedllama> moridin333_ I don't have that option
[01:56] <fabricio> BrASIL
[01:56] <Dr_willis> elpargo,  i wonder if its like the first line thats some nonprinting char thats confusing things.
[01:56] <wooting> sammyF_, another way to contact you tonight? at home i have windows. but can you mail me solution?
[01:56] <m0u5e> well when i type update-manager -d it tells me that I am about to download hardy RC
[01:56] <nickrud> !br | fabricio
[01:56] <ubotu> fabricio: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em portugu├¬s. Obrigado.
[01:56] <zero__> Moridin333, 1440x900 is not available, and its not showing my graphics card anymore,a nd i dont know what to select for that, i have an Nvidia Gforce FX 64 mb
[01:56] <wooting> sammyF_, my friends waiting outside me in 4 minute
[01:56] <m0u5e> is that text file just pre-emptive, or is there already an image of hardy RC up there?
[01:56] <Drew_l> Hello, I'm having trouble installing restricted drivers.  I want to install my ATI accelerated graphics driver and my Firmware for Broadcom 43xx chipset family but when I try to enable the drivers I revieve an error saying "The software source for this package *package here* is not enabled."  I don't know what I ought to do.  I tried installing the one for my Wireless card but it said "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libc6".  I tried to update libc6 but
[01:57] <elpargo> phillipsjk256, yes and no. ASCII has 127 chars but all implementations have an extra table in the upper bit, so everycomputer today has a 256 bit ASCII although the above 128 chars are not guaranteed to be the same in all computers.
[01:57] <Dr_willis> elpargo,  ive used fte befor - it can show non-printing chars , its helped me track down odd things like this befor
[01:57] <LjL> m0u5e, we don't know, ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:57] <Moridin333> zero__ if you run the restricted driver manager in System>Administration it should give you the nvidia driver and open up that option.
[01:57] <nickrud> !gutsysources | Drew_l , this, then try again
[01:57] <ubotu> Drew_l , this, then try again: gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates).
[01:57] <zero__> it says its in use Moridin333
[01:57] <sammyF_> wooting: check the private message I sent you
[01:57] <Dr_willis> m0u5e,  it will be released when its released. :)
[01:57] <Moridin333> auctionedllama what version are you using?
[01:57] <m0u5e> Dr_willis: i'm just so excited :(
[01:57] <Moridin333> auctionedllama  of ubuntu I mean.
[01:57] <elpargo> Dr_willis, fte? or was that a typo?
[01:58] <Moridin333> zero__ nv or nvidia?
[01:58] <zero__> Moridin333, should i disable it, logout then re enable it?
[01:58] <wooting> sammyF_, no message
[01:58] <Auctionedllama> moridin333_ I am usiung 7.10 Ubuntu Studio
[01:58] <zero__> Moridin333, Nvidia
[01:58] <Moridin333> zero__ you can press ctrl alt backspace to restart x
[01:58] <zero__> k thx
[01:58] <christoz> dr_willis ok everything rolled back succesfully...thanks
[01:58] <sammyF_> wooting: if you're using XChat it's a new channel on the left side
[01:59] <wooting> sammyF_, i sent you private message. can you get?
[01:59] <wooting> sammyF_, nothing
[01:59] <Auctionedllama> hey guys what does this mean? "You must run a dkms build"
[01:59] <wooting> sammyF_, you have aim?
[01:59] <elpargo> Dr_willis, that's showing yet a different output :P
[01:59] <sammyF_> wooting: sigh .. you're cursed ;)
[01:59] <Moridin333> auctioonedllama hmmm.  see if there is anything about graphics in the administration.  if there isn't run the alacart menu editor and see if it is just not showing.
[01:59] <Auctionedllama> I got that trying to install an ATI driver
[01:59]  * elpargo thinks they may be UTF-16
[01:59] <LjL> elpargo, ASCII *has* only 127 characters. if you're using the 8th bit to represent different characters than the 127 that ASCII specifies, then it's not ASCII that you're using
[01:59] <calc> SeaPhor: yep still around
[01:59] <sammyF_> wooting: yes, but I seriously don't like saying my account name in HERE
[01:59] <elpargo> LjL, extended ASCII IS ASCII
[01:59] <wooting> sammyF_, ok. can i give you my email?
[01:59] <sammyF_> wooting: and neither should you
[01:59] <SeaPhor> calc: coolness~:-))
[02:00] <wooting> sammyF_, ok... damn how to get you my info?
[02:00] <Auctionedllama> Moridin333_ I got this error trying to install a driver component: Error! Could not locate fglrx.ko for module fglrx in the DKMS tree.
[02:00] <Auctionedllama> You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.22-14-rt (i686) first.
[02:00] <sammyF_> wooting: type /sammyF_ YOUREMAIL@address
[02:00] <LjL> elpargo: no, "extended ASCII" is just a very inexact and misleading term.
[02:00] <sammyF_> wooting: bleh .. I meant /msg sammyf_ emailaddress
[02:00] <Auctionedllama> how do I do that?
[02:00] <LjL> elpargo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#Variants
[02:00] <bazhang> wooting: sammyF_ create a channel #sammyF_ and do it there
[02:00] <Drew_l> nickrud, Thank you, it is working.  What should I do when everything is done?  What settings for software sources should I keep it as?
[02:01] <nickrud> Drew_l that's a very good set of sources for everyday use
[02:01] <Moridin333> auctionedllama to run alacarte? just press alt F2 or open a terminal and type alacarte.
[02:01] <wooting> ok im there bazhang
[02:01] <Auctionedllama> nono, scroll up moridin33
[02:01] <sammyF_> bazhang: good idea. thanks
[02:01] <elpargo> LjL, iso 8859 says your wrong :)
[02:01] <Drew_l> nickrud, So I do not need to change anything?  I am setting this system up for a friend and I want everything to be as hassle-free as possible!
[02:01] <bazhang> no problem guys ;]
[02:01] <Moridin333> auctionedllama I'm not understanding what you're doing.  are you trying to build the driver from souorce?
[02:01] <wooting> sammyF_, im in #sammyF_
[02:02] <LjL> elpargo: where?
[02:02] <Auctionedllama> im trying to install the driver from ATI
[02:02] <Auctionedllama> it unpacked itself and now I need to install its components
[02:02] <nickrud> Drew_l yeah, leave it as that. That way he can get all the stuff that the friend will see listed as available in ubuntu, and will be able to keep up with security and bug fixes
[02:02] <Auctionedllama> And.. the first component gave me that error..
[02:02] <Moridin333> auctioonedllama I don't know how to do that.  you could check the forums or do a google search with the driver version number and ubuntu.
[02:03] <Drew_l> nickrud, Thank you infinitely.  You have done me a great service.  Have a nice day.  I must enter the land of resetting!
[02:03] <beener> i cant get the wireless driver i installed to work
[02:03] <Moridin333> auctionedllama also make sure you downloaded the build-essentials package
[02:03] <nickrud> !offtopic | utf-whatever :)
[02:03] <ubotu> utf-whatever :): #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:03] <Auctionedllama> where do I get that?
[02:03] <_Net> Hi, quick problem during installation. At partitioning step, (ubuntu 7.10) Im using guide partitioning and the bar doesn't go below 50%, I dont want to use 100gb for ubuntu only 50gb, How can I make that bar go down to like 30%
[02:04] <Moridin333> auctioonedllama sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:04] <LjL> elpargo: the parts of the ISO 8859 standards that i can access without paying a fee don't seem to even *mention* the word "ASCII"
[02:04] <bazhang> beener: what chipset on that card; also is it internal pci, external usb or pcmcia card (two questions here)
[02:04] <SeaPhor> calc: well I installed and configured vsftpd, but  I cant seem to connect to it, any help?
[02:04] <Auctionedllama> ok, moridin it says its fully installed
[02:04] <icesword> nickrud, hi, there
[02:04] <linkmaster03> i installed ubuntu woooot!!
[02:05] <nickrud> icesword hi there back :)
[02:05] <Tonisius> gle
[02:05] <Fishscen1> linkmaster03, Congratulations :D
[02:05] <beener> bazhang it is an internal pci and its the bcmxxx chipset one
[02:05] <linkmaster03> had to get off when it finished though, cant wait to get on tomorrow (on DS) right now
[02:05] <genii> LjL: I hate you have to pay for iso spec sheets
[02:06] <Fishscen1> DS? Nintendo DS?
[02:06] <elpargo> LjL, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8859-1 last paragraph
[02:06] <bonhoffer> crap -- i useradded, but didn't create a home directory -- how can i retroactively do that?
[02:06] <linkmaster03> yes fish
[02:06] <beener> bazhang: here in the one i used before on kubuntu bcmwl5.inf that one then modprobe worked
[02:06] <beener> doing the same thing didnt work for ubuntu
[02:07] <LjL> elpargo: it says it is a superset of ASCII... which it certainly is (just like UTF-8).
[02:07] <zero__> hey i need help with my screen resolution
[02:07] <zero__> again
[02:07] <bazhang> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx beener have you seen this

[02:07] <AaronMT> Can anyone fetch me the default ubuntu HEX color code in Desktop Wallpaper Colors button, its like #BAC  something
[02:07] <m2geek> Hello room :)
[02:07] <zero__> I uninstalled my Nvidia driver to reinstall it and get my original resolution back, when i uninstalled it, and rebooted, my original was back, when i reinstalled it, i cant get it back to what it was, HELP?
[02:07] <elpargo> LjL, please show me a computer that supports "pure ascii"
[02:08] <Tonisius> How do I quicklly enable th http://localhost/~<username> setup?
[02:08] <LjL> elpargo: that doesn't have to do with anything.
[02:08] <nickrud> Tonisius sudo a2enmod userdir
[02:08] <nickrud> Tonisius then restart apache
[02:08] <Tonisius> ok, cool
[02:08] <m2geek> Is anyone else in New Zealand? If so, are you downloads from the update mirror really slow lately?
[02:08] <beener> i know its that chip set because i installed this and got it working on kubuntu
[02:09] <chuy_max> Hi, I'm trying to play a DVD for hours without luck, I've already followed wiki pages, checked the forum and google, this is a log of vlc, maybe any good info there?: http://pastebin.ca/989004
[02:09] <AaronMT> Can anyone fetch me the default ubuntu HEX color code in Desktop Wallpaper Colors button, its like #BAC  something
[02:09] <beener> bazhang: just it doesnt seem to work so easily as it did on kubuntu
[02:09] <bazhang> AaronMT: any reason you cannot 'fetch' it yourself?
[02:09] <Tonisius> ok, got it
[02:09] <AaronMT> I changed it from default
[02:09] <Tonisius> nickrud: what about php support?
[02:09] <elpargo> well I manage to copy & paste the thing out into a new vim session which did saved as UTF-8 as it should.
[02:10] <periscope> excuse me if this is an easy question, I just started using ubuntu for the first time:
[02:10] <Tonisius> php5 install with apt-get?
[02:10] <beener> bazhang: and i refuse to use the driver which is supplied already sence it always ga ve me problems
[02:10] <AaronMT> I know it begins with #BAC
[02:10] <m2geek> Anyone?

[02:10] <periscope> I'm trying to install games with wine via steam, and it is reporting that I don't have enough space because it is reading the avail. space from the 10gb drive on which my file partition is mounted
[02:10] <Jordan_U> chuy_max, Is it a region 4 DVD?
[02:10] <periscope> but I know I have enough space
[02:10] <bazhang> m2geek: try a different mirror then
[02:10] <nickrud> Tonisius sudo tasksel install lamp (gets you the whole stack)
[02:10] <chuy_max> Jordan_U, positive
[02:10] <Tonisius> nickrud: what does lamp install in the end?
[02:10] <Tonisius> apache2?  php5?
[02:10] <Tonisius> mysql5?
[02:11] <periscope> my steam is installed on this file partition but it still reports the incorrect available space
[02:11] <nickrud> Tonisius all that
[02:11] <AaronMT> Is it #DAB082?
[02:11] <izinucs> periscope, when you installed did you create a separate partition for /home?
[02:11] <bazhang> beener not sure how to help as I have intel wireless not broadcom
[02:11] <Tonisius> awesome, will do then
[02:11] <icesword> !lamp > Tonisius
[02:11] <AaronMT> Desktop Wallpaper -> Colours -> click the color box
[02:11] <noob13> periscope: where is wine installed?
[02:11] <beener> o dern
[02:11] <m2geek> Thanks bazhang, I would if it wasnt for the fact local (inside nz) traffic doesnt count towards my monthly dsl cap hehe...
[02:12] <Tonisius> nickrud: it didn't do much of anything
[02:12] <periscope> izinucs, no. I have all my ubuntu things on my little 10gb partition, and all my files on the big one (or I am trying)
[02:12] <elpargo> Tonisius, keep it to one line, Linux Apache Mysql Perl/Php/Python
[02:12] <beener> is there anyone else that may be able to help me?
[02:12] <nickrud> Tonisius you already had apache, there's not much more to install.
[02:12] <periscope> noob13, default place, but I have steam installed on the file partition and that should, by default, install my games on it
[02:12] <bazhang> m2geek: mirrrors are likely slow as the next release RC is being released to day
[02:12] <Tonisius> nickrud: it didn't install php when I ran it
[02:13] <Jordan_U> periscope, Is /home on the 10 GB partition?
[02:13] <m2geek> Bazhang: thanks, that makes sence :)
[02:13] <hylinux> Will I use the unbuntu 8.04 64 version?  I had installed it, but there are couple issues. anybody have the same problem with me?
[02:13] <hylinux> like some time the system die.
[02:13] <l815> anyone know how to change the volume icon color? It's black and so is my taskbar which makes it difficult to see
[02:13] <Flannel> hylinux: #ubuntu+1 for 8.04 questions
[02:13] <RWB> how do I determine what Motherboard/chipset I have in linux?
[02:14] <periscope> Jordan_U, yes, I guess it would be.
[02:14] <izinucs> periscope, so the only place to install anything at this point is on the 10 gig partition... you're stuck
[02:14] <nickrud> Tonisius should have, at least libapache2mod-php5 (or a similar name, may have a dash off)
[02:14] <chuy_max> Jordan_U, why did you ask?
[02:14] <genii> RWB: From lshw
[02:14] <periscope> Jordan_U, do I have to specify otherwise when I am initiall installing ubuntu or is that something I could fix without formatting?
[02:14] <pukeko> m2geek: giday mate1
[02:14] <pukeko> *!
[02:14] <nickrud> Tonisius apt-cache search php5-* will list all the modules of php you can add

[02:14] <m2geek> pukeko Hello Fellow Kiwi :)
[02:15] <chuy_max> Jordan_U, I'm almost sure I've played region 4 dvds in windows before
[02:15] <genii> RWB: The output is extensive from that command, perhaps pipe it to more eg:  sudo lshw|more
[02:15] <nickrud> periscope you might consider starting over, and mounting the 10gb partition at ~/.wine ;)
[02:15] <Jordan_U> !home | periscope
[02:15] <ubotu> periscope: Your home folder is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For mounting your home folder on a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[02:15] <beener> bazhang: do you know how to work ndiswrapper and modprobe then?
[02:15] <nickrud> periscope sorry, wrong nick
[02:15] <beener> though*
[02:15] <nickrud> or, right one
[02:16] <izinucs> periscope, is your data partition large? if so how large?
[02:16] <bazhang> beener: just from following the various tutorials; have you read any?
[02:16] <m2geek> (it sucks being a noob to irc (in chatzilla alteast))
[02:16] <RWB> THANKS ;)
[02:16] <beener> yea but there not working
[02:16] <genii> RWB: You're welcome
[02:16] <beener> ive done this countless time on kubuntu
[02:17] <beener> m y first try of ubuntu and it doesnt work
[02:17] <periscope> izinucs, not huge, but much larger than the 6gb it is reporting. it has about 35 free gigs.
[02:17] <Jordan_U> periscope, you don't need to use an entirely separate /home though, you can probably simply copy your ~/.wine to your larger partition then make a symbolic link ( like an alias or shortcut if you don't know ) to it.
[02:17] <periscope> ubotu, thanks, I'll look into that.
[02:17] <chuy_max> Jordan_U, any ideas?, I've pasted regionset output, it is set to 4: http://pastebin.ca/989010
[02:17] <m2geek> ttfn room, off to reboot after the updates (clean install this morning) took 2 hours to download (i have a 4.5mb dsl connection too, hence my being annoyed at the slow update)
[02:17] <m2geek> Ciao
[02:17] <m2geek> logout
[02:17] <izinucs> periscope, are you dual booting?  and is that other partition formatted with NTS
[02:17] <m2geek> buhbye
[02:17] <izinucs> *ntfs
[02:18] <periscope> izinucs, no, single boot, and no, it is all ext3
[02:18] <periscope> Jordan_U, sorry, I don't quite follow. I know what a symlink is, but where would I put the link to the moved .wine?
[02:19] <Joray> I have been trying to use the make command in my terminal for a good 10 minutes and it kjeeps outputting errors.  I am runnign Ubuntu 7.10, everything is updated as well, any help?
[02:19] <nickrud> Joray depends on the errors, and if you ran ./configure (if needed)
[02:19] <izinucs> periscope, if this is a pretty fresh install you might consider reinstalling .. root or "/" should be between 10-12gigs.... swap mo more than 1 gig... /home the rest and you'll lbe ok
[02:19] <ccole0> having an serious video performance issue with my laptop.  It has a Radeon x300 card in it, but everything is slow, either effects on or off.  What driver should I be using?
[02:20] <gogeta> i got my cxt modem working ;-) now all i need is to find a modem on hold asoftwhere
[02:21] <Jordan_U> periscope, It's hard to say clearly in words, you would do: cp ~/.wine /media/stuff/.wine ; ln -s /media/stuff/.wine ~/.wine
[02:21] <ccole0> oh, sorry, I should have said, I am using 8.04 RC updated to current, but it was pretty bad even on the 7.10 version
[02:21] <gogeta> Jordan_U why?
[02:21] <nickrud> ccole0 #ubuntu+1 is handling hardy questions until release,  /j #ubuntu+1
[02:21] <gogeta> wine can run from any dir
[02:21] <icesword> hohohohohohoho
[02:22] <ccole0> neneneneneet-split-split-split
[02:22] <Jordan_U> gogeta, Because I am lazy and don't want to look up wine prefixing :)
[02:22] <gogeta> Jordan_U huge netsplits again today
[02:22] <nickrud> ccole0 #ubuntu+1 is handling hardy questions until release,  /j #ubuntu+1
[02:22] <Joray> nickrud: I did not run ./configure first, and everything is in error,
[02:22] <icesword> lol
[02:22] <gogeta> Jordan_U does it auto
[02:22] <LjL> !netsplit
[02:22] <ubotu> 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
[02:22] <gogeta> Jordan_U as long as your in the dir
[02:22] <nickrud> Joray if there's a configure in the directory, run ./configure first. It'll tell you what you need to install, and then you can try make
[02:22] <XTeLiS> howdy
[02:22] <rancur3p1c_>  ./configure?
[02:22] <periscope> Jordan_U, alright, I will try that. thanks.
[02:23] <mindrape> For some reason in Ubuntu the window titlebars are missing from ONLY OpenOffice windows... all the others are there for any other application I pull up.  Any ideas?  I've tried googling but it only talks about problems w Compiz messing up titlebars for ALL windows...
[02:23] <Orbixx> Ubuntu detects my TV card, but the driver/firmware appears not to be installed. Where do I start?
[02:23] <gogeta> Orbixx probly just need a app like tvtime

[02:24] <nickrud> Joray then you'll have to figure out what's wrong from the output of the make
[02:24] <knivla> i cant install

[02:25] <PeterParkerSubZe> hey guys does anyone know how to configure xorg.conf  or my pci card to fix my resolution. I'm running a zd7000 laptop with a 17inch widescreen from an nvidia geforce fx5700 ... I also have another monitor, an accusync lcd 72vx
[02:25] <gogeta> knivla is that broken again jeezzz
[02:25] <nickrud> Joray then you probably should not be trying make. Not meant to be dismissive, but when you get errors the only way to figure out what's wrong is reading code
[02:26] <Joray> ok, thank you anyway :)
[02:26] <knivla> how to fix that gogeta ?
[02:26] <PeterParkerSubZe> I'm running ubuntu gutsy
[02:26] <gogeta> knivla google it find a good one
[02:26] <spork969> anybody know of a dvd ripper that can rip different sections of a dvd like for example i just recieved season 2 of house on dvd and i want to put the videos on my psp or ipod, etc.
[02:26] <gogeta> knivla that package got broke and i guess they where to lazy to fix it after months
[02:26] <knivla> no i can't find
[02:26] <beener> well shouldnt sudo modprobe ndiswrapper get it to turn on?
[02:26] <beener> because its not for some reason
[02:27] <mindrape> For some reason in Ubuntu the window titlebars are missing from ONLY OpenOffice windows... all the others are there for any other application I pull up.  Any ideas?  I've tried googling but it only talks about problems w Compiz messing up titlebars for ALL windows...

[02:27] <Tonisius> awesome xD
[02:27] <knivla> gogeta.. everything  i can't install

[02:27] <PeterParkerSubZe> can anyone help fix my resolution on ubuntu 7.10
[02:27] <nickrud> mindframe does it happen for metacity ?
[02:27] <m2geek> Hello Again Everyone :)
[02:27] <Orbixx> koro: Set it to automatically mount on boot.
[02:28] <mindrape> Orbixx - well its fully maximized right now and so I dont have the button to minimize it to try that out
[02:28] <koro> Orbixx: yeah but how?
[02:28] <Slasher> Is anyone familiar with secure delete? when i try to use it on an ntfs partition it gives me "file is hardlinked 1 time(s), skipping!" for most of the files though i don't believe they are
[02:28] <PeterParkerSubZe> can anyone help fix my resolution on ubuntu 7.10
[02:28] <Orbixx> mindrape: Go to the taskbar where OpenOffice is, right click it and demaximize it.
[02:28] <Orbixx> mindrape: At the bottom.
[02:28] <Orbixx> koro: I've no idea. I just know it's possible! :D
[02:28] <Orbixx> koro: Make that your next question ;)
[02:29] <koro> Orbixx: even if i set it to automount, i don't think it will show up in my desktop
[02:29] <knivla> gogeta
[02:29] <Slasher> PeterParkerSubZe, what is it now, what would you like it to be and what is your video card?
[02:29] <PeterParkerSubZe> does anyone know how to alter xorg.conf to fix the resolution
[02:29] <Dante123> hi all. my computer sometimes hangs on boot up.  Whenever I restart it, it boots fine.  I have an amd sempron 3400 and k8m800 motherboard.  Any ideas if this is an ubuntu problem or the symptom of something else.  I don't think it has ever happened when booting into windows....
[02:29] <Orbixx> koro: Whenever I mount something, a shortcut automatically appears on my desktop.
[02:29] <koro> i can figure out how to automount it editing fstab
[02:29] <knivla> eve th Gnash SWF player won't install
[02:29] <Orbixx> I can only assume the same happens for you.
[02:29] <phoenix24> I removed Beagle but its log files "/var/cache/beagle" stays back... eating precious storage space.
[02:29] <gogeta> knivla yep
[02:29] <gogeta> http://sanaulla.wordpress.com/2008/02/17/install-flash-player-9-in-ubuntu
[02:29] <Orbixx> mindrape: Getting anywhere?
[02:29] <PeterParkerSubZe> slasher:thanks so much I'd like it to be 1499x900 my video card is an nvidia geforce fx5700
[02:29] <mindrape> Orbixx - nope... it can either just go completely minimized or completely maximized... wont let me pick an inbetween.  Even UnMaximize just maximizes it...
[02:29] <phoenix24> can I simply purge /var/cache /var/logs ?
[02:29] <nickrud> phoenix24 try apt-get remove --purge beagle
[02:30] <gogeta> that get around that
[02:30] <gogeta> :)
[02:30] <nickrud> phoenix24 or 'mark for complete removal' in synaptic
[02:30] <phoenix24> nickrud, tried that did not help
[02:30] <Fujisan> scroll me baby love me sweet for i am open source with me darling you can win and dont have to pay a dime love me tender Ubuntu please for i fulfill your dream see me standing darling please and fill my techyheart with joy
[02:30] <mindrape> is there a key combo from within the app maybe to get it out of full screen mode?  CTRL SHIFT J just gets rid of the File menu but wont bring back the titlebar
[02:30] <Dante123>  hi all. my computer sometimes hangs on boot up.  Whenever I restart it, it boots fine.  I have an amd sempron 3400 and k8m800 motherboard.  Any ideas if this is an ubuntu problem or the symptom of something else.  I don't think it has ever happened when booting into windows....
[02:31] <m2geek> no idea
[02:31] <Orbixx> Dante123: Boot without quiet or splash in the grub config.
[02:31] <Orbixx> And see where it freezes.
[02:31] <Orbixx> And what it might say.
[02:31] <Fujisan> Dante123 like playing the lottery for free lucky :)
[02:31] <XTeLiS> anyone around here have 4gb of space i could put a huge dvd linux helper dvd on ?
[02:31] <Fujisan> LordMetroid my monarch welcome
[02:32] <Orbixx> XTeLiS: Hosted?
[02:32] <bazhang> Dante123: how long does it hang and how do you get out of it--hard reset?
[02:32] <gogeta>  free money
[02:32] <mindrape> any other ideas Orbixx?  I appreciate the ideas so far...
[02:32] <gogeta> Fujisan ?
[02:32] <XTeLiS> uhh ?
[02:32] <Slasher> PeterParkerSubZe, open your xorg.conf file in gedit "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and find the line in the screen section, subsection display, that says modes and add your resolution to it
[02:32] <beener> i installed the wirless network drivers
[02:32] <XTeLiS> well so everyone in here can get these files
[02:32] <Orbixx> mindrape: I assume you demaximized it?
[02:32] <mindrape> yup
[02:32] <nickrud> phoenix24 hm, (was away for a sec) I guess it's not handled by remove, but if you're sure beagle is gone, you can remove it. Maybe file a bug
[02:32] <beener> and unistalled and installed the driver (but the driver wont install
[02:32] <Dante123> bazhang and  Orbixx I have the spalsh off, and it hangs at different parts of the boot up process
[02:32] <Orbixx> XTeLiS: Sure, I can. Drop me an email at rick AT orbixx DOT com.
[02:32] <mindrape> still nothing... they are just gone.  I have a File menu and the button bar but no titlebar.
[02:32] <XTeLiS> its a linux starter kit and has alot of helper utils that everyone is asking for
[02:32] <Orbixx> I'll sort you out.
[02:32] <LordMetroid> Fujisan: Thank you, my emperor mountain
[02:32] <XTeLiS> k
[02:32] <artenius> where can I configure ubuntu's builtin bittorrent cient?
[02:33] <Orbixx> I'll email some FTP details.
[02:33] <Slasher> PeterParkerSubZe, so if it looks like: Modes "1024x768"   then change it to Modes "1499x900" "1024x768" and you will be able to set the resolution
[02:33] <Dante123> I usually just turn it off and back on again and then it work.  It hangs forever when it hangs...but a quick restart fixes it.  Still annoying though.  Other times it boots fine.
[02:33] <AmyRose> Is there a way to disable GNOME's autocomplete features?
[02:33] <XTeLiS> read your personal msg
[02:33] <Orbixx> Anyone got an idea about my TV card issue?
[02:34] <bazhang> Dante123: interesting; how long before you hard reset it
[02:34] <gogeta> :-(
[02:34] <beener> wel itll install if i do sudo ndiswrapper
[02:34] <beener> but thats the only way
[02:34] <AmyRose> I'm having a lot of problems with typing things like "killllallall" in the Run dialog
[02:34] <shyster317> how do I get 5.1 with my sound blaster audigy?
[02:34] <beener> and i get some wiredd things that pop up
[02:34] <m2geek> This HP (oh the horror is oem) has a TV Tuner, which has never worked under ubuntu
[02:34] <Slasher> so is anyone familiar with srm?
[02:34] <gogeta> Orbixx you need to knoe what card etc
[02:34] <knivla> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libboost-date-time1.34.1_1.34.1-2ubuntu1.1_i386.deb: files list file for package `screensaver-default-images' contains empty filename

[02:34] <Dr_willis> shyster317,  you have a real 5.1 source playing?  if not you can mess with the mixer controlls and clone the front speakers to the rear.
[02:35] <TwinX> Slasher; thats a slack package
[02:35] <Dante123> well, sometimes I reset it right away after waiting a minute or two.......

[02:35] <Tonisius> for C programming, what packages do I need to install?
[02:35] <tayroni> Is somebody knows when hardy RC will be released?
[02:35] <Tonisius> trying to get the stdio.h and etc installed so I can compile some programms

[02:35] <bazhang> tayroni: today
[02:35] <Orbixx> gogeta: Haha, I wouldn't be here if I hadn't already.
[02:35] <RightSideLeft> Can I ask a question in here or should I go somewhere else as to not avoid confusion between conversations?
[02:35] <PeterParkerSubZe> slasher: it's already there
[02:36] <Slasher> TwinX, I was hoping someone was familiar with it, and it is in the universe repo
[02:36] <beener> forcing parameter IBSSGMode from 0 to 2 < this is what comes up multiple times
[02:36] <gogeta> Orbixx be suprised on how many i help hear just googling it

[02:36] <bazhang> RightSideLeft: for gutsy and below here is the right place
[02:36] <shyster317> in mplayer i have 5.1 enabled, but it doesn't work there either
[02:36] <Tonisius> ah, libc-dev
[02:36] <shyster317> actually i can't even play a dvd in mplayer
[02:36] <XTeLiS> ick
[02:37] <Orbixx> gogeta: Oh I believe it.
[02:37] <TwinX> slasher wipe is similar to srm
[02:37] <Orbixx> gogeta: I tell people to Google it all the tiem.
[02:37] <gogeta> shyster317 get the exras package you will
[02:37] <Slasher> PeterParkerSubZethen you should just be able to set the resolution from system->preferences->Screen Resolution, can you not?
[02:37] <thor> i have Conky set to startup, and when i log in it shows up fora few seconds but then disapears. I can see its still running as a process under the system monitor. If i start it manually i have no problems. Any ideas?
[02:37] <ToddEDM> hey guys , anyone here got Enemy Territory installed?
[02:37] <Dante123> bazhang: do you think I am being too impatient....and it is going to load maybe just longer than usual?
[02:37] <nickrud> Orbixx I think gogeta means he googles it for them
[02:37] <bazhang> Dante123: how long before you hard reset it
[02:37] <gogeta> shyster317 and the win32codecs mplayer will play more then even vlc
[02:37] <shyster317> do you know what it is called
[02:37] <Orbixx> nickrud: Ah yes.
[02:37] <Orbixx> nickrud: Thanks for the correction there :P
[02:37] <Slasher> TwinX, thanks, i'll give that a try
[02:38] <ToddEDM> anyone know how i can uninstall enemy Territory???
[02:38] <RightSideLeft> sorry-Ok, I wanted to know the easiest way (if there is one) to have program change messages from my MIDI keyboard change which ALSA outputs the midi keyboard is using so that I can map different soft synths to different programs on the keyboard
[02:38] <bazhang> ToddEDM: how did you install it
[02:38] <tayroni> And anyone here is part of l10n teams? The translations deadline is the release of RC?
[02:38] <Dr_willis> thor,  make it log to a file to see any error messages? could be You need to mess with that setting in gnome to allow apps to draw to the desktop.  I would also check the conky homepage/faqs - it can be a bit of a hassle under kde/gnome to get going right
[02:38] <Dante123> bazhang: I dunno sometimes I start the computer and 5 minutes later I come back into the room and it is hung...so I reset it.  Hold in the on/off switch for 10 seconds then restart it.
[02:38] <shyster317> in windows i can get all 5.1 to play even with an mp3, though it is not a true 5.1 source
[02:38] <nickrud> thor it might be starting on the root window before nautilus starts the desktop (which is a window above the X root window) . Try adding a sleep 30 or so to the script starting conky
