[08:37] <frederick85> jim_p: i'm just going to change back to LTS I know it is working atleast
[08:37] <Schmick> Coloquialist, gconf-editor can help you hiding icons.   Open the tree to apps/nautiuls/desktop and uncheck volumes_visible.
[08:37] <edajai> @thufir go to add/remove programs under Applications menu, and install the cairo-clock application
[08:37] <Coloquialist> Mistform: how are they technically mounted on the desktop ? I mounted them into a sub-folder under my /home folder
[08:37] <frederick85> jim_p: unless you have some more ideas
[08:37] <jim_p> frederick85: give me a chance
[08:38] <Schmick> Coloquialist, BTW, BE VERY CAREFULL USING gconf-editor.
[08:38] <[[thufir]]> edajai: oh, I have it installed.  what I mean, is, can I embed it into the panel?  the panel in GNOME only seems to offer a "digital" clock
[08:38] <jim_p> frederick85: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[08:39] <edajai> thufir:i don't hink u can embed it to the panel
[08:39] <chandru_in> Has anyone else faced the same problem as me?
[08:39] <frybye> i suppose I need to create a shared folder or similar - yeah???
[08:39] <mistform> Coloquialist, i'm not an expert. But your desktop is much like an active browser. I delete a file on the desktop, it's deleted from my ~/Desktop/.
[08:39] <Coloquialist> Schmick: Roger on the "be careful bit. ... if I do that option will USB drives, and CD roms not show up too ?
[08:40] <[[thufir]]> is there some way to get something which gives an analog clock in the GNOME panel?
[08:40] <Schmick> Coloquialist, yep... it just affect the desktop, not the Nautilus list.
[08:40] <Coloquialist> schmick: Thanks!
[08:40] <itai> hi, how can i get skype running on dapper?
[08:40] <Schmick> Coloquialist, np
[08:41] <Coloquialist> gconf-editor
[08:41] <Schmick> lol.. wrong window Coloquialist .. :)
[08:41] <chandru_in> Since I'm facing the prob, is it possible to partition the disk using stand-alone gparted and use Ubiquity to just install?
[08:41] <Coloquialist> arr
[08:42] <mistform> how would I go about mounting an iso to a USB drive?
[08:42] <Coloquialist> :) I wondered why it didn't open anything up.
[08:42] <joshux> I upgraded to 8.10 and I now have no X
[08:42] <edajai> thufir: AFAIK there doesn't exist one
[08:42] <sfire> in ubuntu 8.10 what is the WL propriatory driver
[08:42] <sfire> oops.. spelling
[08:43] <mistform> the last mount I used was "sudo mount -t iso9660 file.iso /media/iso -o loop"
[08:43] <edajai> joshux: did u try the recovery mode?
[08:44] <Schmick> Coloquialist, gconf[TAB] shows up gconf-editor?
[08:44] <Malformation> I htink 8.10 doesn't support my nVidia 8400M GS
[08:44] <Malformation> think*
[08:45] <chandru_in> friends, any hint for me?
[08:45] <favro> Malformation: there's been a few people mention nvidia hassles with intrepid
[08:46] <Malformation> ok
[08:46] <Malformation> I guess I'll just wait for added driver support right?
[08:47] <roger_> I have just done the injternet upgrade of ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10. Everything went fine until the reboot. My machine has hung, last message was *Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)    [OK] when i ctrl alt del i get a msg saying "Stopping gnome display manager" then a few momnents and quick ubuntu splash screen flashes up and reboot...... I have an nvidia 8800GTS 320 MB
[08:47] <roger_> could the nvidia graphic card be part of the problem?
[08:47] <Coloquialist> Schmick: It worked, I just failed at identifying correct windows.
[08:47] <Schmick> :P
[08:47] <Schmick> good work!
[08:48] <favro> Malformation: I would think the kernel would be updated soon
[08:48] <Malformation> ok
[08:48] <natalisushka> Hi, I have some strange issue with my network. My network icon doesn't appear in the system tray, no matter how many times I run nm-applet --sm-disable. It's also there activated in the session. I had to change my interfaces file manually to get internet working, but I would like to have it! Why is that? What can i do? it happened after I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10

[08:48] <pdlnhrd> if i boot my computer with the live cd and it sees my hardware raid as a single device /dev/sda  shouldn't i just be able to install to it as normal ?
[08:48] <frybye> Am trying to set up a link between two puters on home net - both with ibex - have opend sharing on the public folder on both pcs but they dont see each other - any tips??
[08:49] <DIFH-iceroot> pdlnhrd: you have to use dmraid so that ubuntu can see your raid-arrays, installing on sda will crash your (fake)raid-array
[08:49] <Malformation> pdlnhrd, use nc?
[08:49] <roger_> frybye: goto Places, connect to server
[08:49] <droobleZ> Hello, how do I completely format Ubuntu? I would like to install Windows XP back on this machine. Whenever I try to, I get an eror that my hard drive could not be recognized by Windows XP Pro installation window. Any help here?
[08:49] <jim_p> frybye: static ips and nfs
[08:49] <droobleZ> I don't have any partions

[08:49] <droobleZ> I completely wiped XP away
[08:50] <Malformation> drooblez, it might be ur motherboard.
[08:50] <Noisek79> droobleZ: Run Ubuntu Live-cd and remove all partitions.
[08:50] <pdlnhrd> DIFH-iceroot:  it isnt' fake raid... it is a pci card
[08:50] <roger_> frybye: use ssh
[08:50] <Malformation> have u ever used the CD before?
[08:50] <roger_> frybye: port 22
[08:50] <jim_p> bingungaja: sudo apt-get autoremove cairo-dock --purge
[08:50] <bingungaja> jim_p: thx
[08:50] <suspect43> hi, what's up with the partial update that update manager tells me to do?
[08:50] <pdlnhrd> Malformation,  what is  nc?
[08:51] <frybye> remind me how to check the ips on the puters...?
[08:51] <DIFH-iceroot> pdlnhrd: with real hardware-raid ubuntu will detect your raid-array, so you are sure its real hardware-eraid and not fake-raid?
[08:51] <mistform> wtf

[08:52] <frybye> ok i have it...
[08:52] <pdlnhrd> DIFH - iceroot: i am POSITIVE it is real raid... the card cost me 500 dollars and I have 8 drives connected and i intilized the raid and everything works... 8.10 sees it as one drive /dev/sda   should it see it has something else
[08:53] <jim_p> frybye: can you log in to the router web interface?

[08:54] <Ohmu_> can someone invite me onto the #wine channel?
[08:55] <roger_> clear
[08:55] <dr_willis> Ohmu_,  it proberly requires a registered nickname to join.

[08:56] <DIFH-iceroot> pdlnhrd: depends one what you need it for
[08:56] <DIFH-iceroot> pdlnhrd: but with only one array its ok to see only sda
[08:56] <Ohmu_> hmm it still wont let me in, and I've identified with nickserv
[08:57] <Schmick> no Ohmu_ you are not identified.
[08:57] <frybye> jim_p: ssh is too complicated - and i know nothing about it etc.. I just need to access shared folders on both machings via network smb:/// etc.. how to do this please...?
[08:57] <saft> what does apt stand for? Application Package  T__?
[08:57] <jim_p> frybye: you need to know the ips of the other pcs
[08:57] <pdlnhrd> DIFH - iceroot: in the end i need a dev partition (ubuntu) , windows partition (CS Masters 4), and a shared partition between the two.... i am just trying to get it to boot once than go from there.... but grub wont install... everything else seems to work
[08:57] <DIFH-iceroot> saft: man apt

[08:59] <frybye> jim_p: what to do next.. jus tto use the gui to see the folders...
[08:59] <pdlnhrd> DIFH - iceroot:   it seems like my real problem is grub... i will play around with it till i figure out why it won't install on raid...

[09:00] <_coredump_> Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8040 on 2.6.27-7-generic doesn't work, i cant get any network connection with this nic and the sky module. is there a fix already?

[09:01] <itai> can some help me a dependency problem , look here (on dapper) : http://paste.ubuntu.com/65599/
[09:01] <Ohmu_> ziroday: What on earth are you on? thats the stupidest comment.
[09:01] <DIFH-iceroot> frybye: sftp://host   its much easier then setup a samba share
[09:02] <saint-takeshi> brb, gonna try the old win32 cure (reboot and make a coffee) see if that magically fixes things the way it did in the windows 98 days
[09:02] <Ohmu_> ziroday: thats _fundamentally_ what these channels are for.  Linux help, support  and Development.
[09:03] <Schmick> Hey ppl.. pls.. chill.
[09:03] <pdlnhrd> frybye:   i agree sftp://host is the best thing in the world.. and you can make bookmarks to hosts you use often
[09:03] <Ohmu> Schmick, excellent, thanks!
[09:03] <DIFH-iceroot> frybye: with sftp you have to use the ssh-login name and password
[09:03] <Schmick> np Ohmu
[09:03] <roger_> frybye: did you try thr "connct to server option"?
[09:04] <favro> Ohmu: you didn't read the topic when you entered here maybe
[09:04] <frybye> is ok now - had just apparently taken a while to resolve...
[09:04] <frybye> thanx for all yoru helpl...
[09:04] <roger_> I have just done the injternet upgrade of ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10. Everything went fine until the reboot.

[09:05] <pdlnhrd> frybye:  avahi (afp/bonjour) used for sharing is cool... but the sftp://host is faster and way more secure (if that maters)
[09:05] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: start the rescue option from grub and use "fix x-server"
[09:06] <thomasite> Hi. How do I change the DNS servers? I'm on 8.10. Thanks!
[09:06] <Petester> ziroday are you here?
[09:07] <ziroday> Petester: for a short while, yep!
[09:07] <symtab> hello
[09:07] <sfire> thomasite: using a router?  if so I always do it there then it applies to all machines plugged in
[09:07] <ziroday> thomasite: right click on the network applet and go to connections
[09:07] <pdlnhrd> thomasite:   do you want to change it just for the machine or for the whole house,  i usually change it in the router... else in /etc/resolve.conf
[09:07] <DIFH-iceroot> thomasite: /etc/resolv.conf
[09:07] <symtab> if you press the special volume down/up keys in ubuntu a app (cairo widget) appears...any idea what package contains that widget
[09:07] <symtab> ?
[09:07] <Ohmu> I am working to bring continuous speech recognition to Linux.  In service to and out of respect for the FOSS community.  Without it, Linux lags badly behind Windows.  I am asking for help/support/collaboration.  I will only accept that this is an inappropriate place to ask if one of the chan ops tells me.
[09:08] <bazhang> Ohmu, try in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:08] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: ok cheers! - ill let you know :)
[09:08] <thomasite> Hi. I want to change it for my machine only. Last time when I had 8.04, I just click on Network Connections and it allowed me to change the DNS servers easily. This time, I don't know how to do it in 8.10.
[09:08] <Ohmu> maybe I need to go on #linux
[09:08] <ziroday> thomasite: two people have told you two different ways of doing it, which method do you want clarification on?
[09:08] <DIFH-iceroot> thomasite: sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf   dont know how to do it in the gui
[09:08] <a1len> Anyone have any ideas on how I'd run a program from a certain directory?
[09:09] <Schmick> Nice project Ohmu .. speech recog has been dead for quite some time. Get it on launchpad.
[09:09] <joaopinto> a1len, cd directory; runpogram ?
[09:09] <DIFH-iceroot> a1len: cd to that directory && start the programm
[09:09] <pdlnhrd> thomasite:  use opendns and do it in your router... you will be happier
[09:09] <a1len> That's from the terminal?
[09:09] <DIFH-iceroot> a1len: sure
[09:09] <Schmick> allen, for security reasons, if you are in the same directory as the program is, start it as ./programname
[09:10] <Ohmu> Thankyou Schmick, 3 negative comments from the channel had me a little unsettled.  I know nothing of launchpad.  I'll investigate.
[09:10] <thomasite> I'd like to do that in GUI. When I changed it, I got an error message: Updating connection failed: nm-ifupdown-connection.c.82 - connection update not supported (read-only)..
[09:10] <DIFH-iceroot> thomasite: sorry dont knw the gui for that
[09:11] <a1len> Hm... thanks. One more thing. What's the default directory for the user?
[09:11] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: fix x-server  apparently not a recognised command
[09:11] <DIFH-iceroot> a1len: ~/
[09:11] <frybye> when using smb:/// it askes for passwords and the pw for the respective pcs do not work...???
[09:11] <thomasite> Thanks, DIFH.
[09:11] <ziroday> thomasite: I have never done it myself, but I know where in the menu through a gui it can be edited
[09:11] <a1len> Thanks
[09:11] <pdlnhrd> thomasite:   can you give us the use case why you want to change the DNS?   in other words why do you think you need to change it?
[09:11] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: this is an option in the ubuntu menü when starting the grub-rescue option
[09:11] <frybye> roger_: pse see above
[09:12] <Schmick> a1len, ~/ or /home/<username> .. it's the same. :)
[09:12] <frybye> up till now I have been happy with smb so ...
[09:12] <frybye> used it to conn to a windows machine..
[09:12] <DIFH-iceroot> Schmick: nope, /home/username is static, ~/ is the home from the login user, iportant in scripts
[09:12] <thomasite> There are some websites that I can't view using my current DNS settings. :(
[09:13] <Don> Hi I have a question: Wher can I download good Gnome designes?
[09:13] <pdlnhrd> thomasite:  do you have a router in your house?   does this happen on other computers as well?
[09:14] <_coredump_> are there any known problems with marvell network cards an the sky2 module with intrepid? this constallation gives me no network connection.
[09:14] <DIFH-iceroot> Don: art.gnome.org or gnome-look.org
[09:14] <ziroday> Don: you mean themes?
[09:14] <Don> yes I'm from germany ^^
[09:14] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: could you wallk me through this?? I cant seem to find the fix x-server option?!
[09:14] <lj> is openoffice 3 not included in ubuntu 8.10?
[09:14] <Don> thx anyway
[09:15] <thomasite> There are other computers in my building. But originally, when i was still using 8.04, changing the DNS was very easy and fast. I don't need to go to resolve.conf
[09:15] <cmatheson> i'm trying to get two-finger scrolling/taps working on my synaptic touchpad, but i don't seem to be getting any multi-finger events--is this not supported on all new synaptic touchpads?
[09:15] <esay> how I install testdisk on my computer? there isn't testdisk in sources
[09:15] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: in the grub-menue there should be the normal ubuntu boot and a rescue boot, right?
[09:15] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: recovery mode option?
[09:15] <pdlnhrd> good luck thomasite, sorry couldn't help you
[09:15] <DIFH-iceroot> easies: apt-get install testdisk (its in my repos on hardy)
[09:15] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: yes
[09:16] <lolnoob> 8.10 sucks :P
[09:16] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: and there a menue is popup with e.g. fix x-server
[09:16] <thomasite> Thanks. I just edited resolve.conf. It works. Although I prefer using the GUI.
[09:16] <lj> is openoffice 3 not included in ubuntu 8.10? i currently have 8.10 but it only still has openoffice 2.4
[09:16] <roger_> so i just run that mode? or do i add to that option "e" to edit the commands?
[09:16] <DIFH-iceroot> thomasite: but the commandline is the same on every llinux system :) so its better to know how to to it like that instead of using a gui
[09:17] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: run the recovery-mode
[09:17] <economyx> hi all, quick question.. how can i be sure ubuntu recognizes my video card?
[09:17] <DIFH-iceroot> lj: its not included
[09:17] <DIFH-iceroot> economyx: which card?
[09:17] <lj> DIFH-iceroot ok, thanks
[09:17] <roger_> and from the command line i should run fix x-server?
[09:17] <DIFH-iceroot> lj: np
[09:18] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: and then run fix x-server?
[09:18] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: there is a menue with some options and there is a option fix xserver
[09:18] <edajai> economyx: go to System menu> administration>hardware drivers
[09:18] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: or go to the command line and rename xorg.conf
[09:18] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: so ubuntu is using a default xorg.xonf
[09:18] <economyx> edajai: ok, thanks. DIFH-iceroot: actually i don't know what video card it is
[09:18] <geev> which command i have to use to connect to remote server through terminal
[09:18] <neztiti> guys my pc take 3 minutes to shutdown bcz i have NTP application . how i can stop it?? i cant remove it bcz i use mythtv . any help???
[09:19] <ay^> geev: depends on what software you want to access
[09:19] <DIFH-iceroot> geev: you mean ssh?
[09:19] <ljsoftnet> just want to check if my nickname has been change
[09:19] <ay^> geev: but I'd probably assume SSH, thus ssh
[09:19] <economyx> edajai: it shows no proprietary drivers
[09:19] <DIFH-iceroot> geev: ssh user@host
[09:19] <geev> DIFH-iceroot: yes
[09:19] <sfire> anyone else having trouble with dell laptops and the broadcom BCM4328 wireless?
[09:20] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: i renamed the xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak then rebooted - it appears to be working
[09:20] <Don> How do I install .tar.gz packeges?
[09:20] <elvis> extract
[09:20] <edajai> economyx: how old is your computer and do u know wht graphics card it uses
[09:20] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: so if there is no xorg.conf   ubuntu creates a new one?
[09:20] <elvis> go to folder
[09:20] <ay^> Don: you unpack them and do as it says in the README or INSTALL
[09:20] <ljsoftnet> Don, what are you installing?
[09:20] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: yes, ubuntu maybe has no driver in 8.10 for your card, but xorg.conf say which driver to use and if there driver is not there... it reboots
[09:20] <xominous> Anyone know how to remove system notices in xirc?  As in the "so and so had joined" stuff.
[09:20] <economyx> edajai: i am not sure what card, it's nvidia though. my laptop is less than a year old
[09:20] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: yes
[09:20] <ziroday> sfire: did you look in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers?
[09:21] <sfire> ziroday: yes.. it doesn't work
[09:21] <sfire> dmsg reports errors
[09:21] <Don> I'm instaling themes.
[09:21] <sfire> so I tried doing it the old ndiswrapper way
[09:21] <sfire> no joy :(
[09:21] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: its just sitting on the splash screen now
[09:21] <ziroday> Don: you need to drag them into the appearances window
[09:21] <Mark1> Hi.  Intrepid totally toasted my system.  I reinstalled 8.04 but now have two installs of 8.04, one on each partition.  how can I safely remove the old one?
[09:21] <ziroday> sfire: what are the dmesg errors>
[09:21] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: nothing happens anymore?
[09:21] <Don> Thx
[09:22] <ay^> Mark1: use the dangerous rm command
[09:22] <ay^> on the folders you don't need
[09:22] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: nope - ill be patient and get back to you in a wee while!
[09:22] <Mark1> danger...  I've had enough of that :)
[09:22] <ziroday> sfire: also can you verify that the package b43-fwcutter us installed
[09:22] <ay^> Mark1: its only dangerous if you use it wrong
[09:23] <sfire> ziroday: b43-phy0 error: found unsupported PHY (Analog 5, Type 4, Revision 1)
[09:23] <ljsoftnet> Don, just drag the .tar.gz file in the System>Appearance window
[09:23] <Mark1> highly likely that i'll use it wrong  -  no expert :(
[09:23] <sfire> ziroday: I'll check now
[09:23] <ay^> Mark1: well if you dont dare to remove it, you obiously cant remove it ;P
[09:24] <scientes> what inimal way to test the video capture card on my ubuntu-server?
[09:24] <Don> And if I have other packeges that are app's?
[09:24] <Mark1> lol
[09:24] <bingungaja> anyone can confirm that cairo-dock can run in ubuntu 8.10 64 bit ?
[09:24] <sfire> ziroday: no that wasn't installed
[09:24] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: It's back to the same point now. The splash screen loaded up then it hangs back at the original point
[09:24] <ziroday> sfire: install that package, not sure if it will will help but we will see :)
[09:24] <b0xxy> oi say i wanted to access a shared folder on another pc, like in windows u type \\<IP_ADDRESS> to access it wat do u do in ubunut?
[09:24] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: any errors?
[09:24] <roger_> no
[09:24] <ziroday> Don: then you need to compile them which is dangerous and difficult
[09:24] <ay^> Mark1: rm with some flags is the same as shift + del
[09:24] <DIFH-iceroot> roger_: dont know which log file can be interesting :(
[09:25] <ay^> Mark1: meaning it will delete the stuff you tell it to delete
[09:25] <user__> so terrible
[09:25] <b0xxy> say i wanted to access a shared folder on another pc, like in windows u type \\<IP_ADDRESS> to access it wat do u do in ubunut?
[09:25] <user__> xxxxx
[09:25] <Don> Ok thx anyway
[09:25] <ljsoftnet> b0xxy, ubuntu automatically detects any shared folder on a windows machine, if it connected in the network
[09:25] <ziroday> !compile | Don
[09:25] <sfire> ziroday: I'm going to restart it.. but it didn't work after going throught the hardware manager
[09:25] <roger_> DIFH-iceroot: last message is "Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)    [OK] then nothing
[09:25] <ay^> Mark1: now that I think of it, you could just might as well use nautilus and shift + del as root
[09:25] <zzaza> hi all
[09:25] <ziroday> sfire: okay
[09:25] <ay^> Mark1: you'd probably feel more safe there
[09:25] <bingungaja> anyone can confirm that cairo-dock can run in ubuntu 8.10 64 bit ?
[09:26] <pdlnhrd> b0xxy:  does the target machine have ssh server installed?
[09:26] <Don> Ok
[09:26] <xominous> b0xxy: Also I think using // is important, and not \\
[09:27] <AciD> hey
[09:27] <ay^> !hi | AciD
[09:27] <Mark1> OK.  Thanx v much for the info  -  I'll read up on it.  Any ideas what went wrong with my upgrade?  I went thru the steps as described and all seemed well  -  until the 'remove obsolete packages' part.  I think it deleted everything... Then on reboot I just ended up at what looked like a command line screen with nothing happening.  startx didn't work.
[09:28] <ay^> Mark1: uh thats sound pretty uncool, but no idea on what might have happened
[09:29] <scientes> i installed xawtv on a server and it didnt work
[09:29] <Lynet> ibex, in network control panel. Does the 'system' checkmark mean that the defined network connection will be brought up at boot instead of at login?
[09:29] <scientes>  (it displays a vid capture stream)
[09:29] <AciD> I installed ubuntu 8.10 and it works great ! Now I installed some kde apps too (by using apt-get install kde). What I don't figure is why the 'systemsettings' (replacement for kcontrol) is so 'empty' : I only have 8 icons in the general tab, and only 'icons' and 'emoticons' in the appeareance one
[09:29] <DIFH-iceroot> AciD: you want kubuntu-desktop and not kde
[09:30] <Mark1> ok.  Install from CD doesn't really work either, so a hardware issue?  it's a Compaq Evo (D-something-or-other) so not exactly obscure system.
[09:30] <C4N-S|SEAL45> Anyone here ever use synergy???
[09:30] <AciD> DIFH-iceroot > even though I prefer to use kde apps with gnome panel as my environment ?
[09:30] <bingungaja> why i launch cairo-dock and nothing happen /
[09:30] <DIFH-iceroot> AciD: no!!!!
[09:30] <DIFH-iceroot> AciD: i though you want the hole kde, sorry
[09:30] <ay^> Mark1: what fails with the cd-install?
[09:31] <xominous> Mark1: How far does it get before it kicks you to the command line?
[09:31] <sfire> ziroday: after running the hardware driver tool for it I don't see it listed in 'ndiswrapper -l'
[09:31] <ziroday> sfire: can you reword that?
[09:31] <AciD> I'm a kde apps fan, I just don't really like the panel :> but I don't get why there is so few configuration option in systemsettings, I saw a lot more on some screenshots
[09:32] <ziroday> AciD: ask in #kubuntu
[09:32] <xominous> Mark1: As in, do you see it run and fsck or any errors before it kicks you to there.
[09:32] <AciD> will do
[09:32] <sfire> ziroday: I get the same error in the dmesg ... Unsupported PHY ... probe of ssb0:0 failed with error -95
[09:33] <ziroday> sfire: after installing the b43 package?
[09:33] <sfire> yes
[09:33] <ziroday> sfire: then I am not sure, sorr
[09:33] <ziroday> *sorry
[09:35] <Mark1> 8.10 install from CD doesn't fail, but on boot it logs in... and then does nothing, just hangs on black screen (with mouse present)       8.10 upgrade got as far as showing the ubuntu loader, next it's a black screen with a 4 or 5 info lines (all saying OK) ...  and then nothing happens.  I tried running startx at that point but i think it came back saying that the drivers weren't present.
[09:35] <xominous> What is the last ok it shows?
[09:36] <Mark1> sorry, can't remember
[09:36] <C4N-S|SEAL45> OMG I <3 EVERYONE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[09:36] <bazhang> !caps | C4N-S|SEAL45
[09:36] <C4N-S|SEAL45> !benice seal <3's u
[09:37] <xominous> Mark1: Well that could be several things unfortunately.  It's probably best if you could figure out what the last OK was and maybe what it said before it kicked you there.  Like if its waiting on any processes or whatever and then kicks you before it gives a FAIL or OK
[09:37] <Mark1> I think the 'remove obsolete packages' thing removed _everything_   Silly me thought that it was upgrading a whole bunch of stuff, but on reflection I think it went horribly, horribly wrong
[09:38] <Oprtz> hello guys, install new ubuntu 8.10, and install w32codecs, nonfree flash etc, i can watch youtube videos FULL screen, but some other website streaming video dont work , whyis that, for the sake of understanding my question, here is the link of error what i got, http://img216.imageshack.us/my.php?image=errorju1.jpg. thanks
[09:38] <Mark1> like removed 400 'obsolete' things
[09:38] <scientes> fbtv but it complains that there is no console font file
[09:38] <scientes> how do i install a console font??
[09:39] <xominous> Mark1: You could also try booting into the rescue kernel.  That usually gives more info.
[09:39] <bazhang> !fonts | scientes
[09:39] <scientes> fonts for console
[09:39] <scientes> it cant find any
[09:39] <xominous> Mark1: Well rescue mode, technically.
[09:39] <Mark1> I tried rescue, safe mode and all sorts of things  -  nothing seemed to help unfortunately
[09:39] <xominous> Mark1: And yeah, you have to be careful sometimes when removing old packages.  :(
[09:39] <Intey> re
[09:40] <ziroday> Oprtz: that is not a flash video, its probably a .wmv, or .mov, its being streamed by totem's mozilla plugin. You may want to switch to a different one
[09:40] <Intey> it seems to be working fine
[09:40] <dentex> no sound :  Realtek ALC885, parameter alsa-base please
[09:40] <FredTC> Okay, I did a clean install of 8.10 and the wireless connection manager STILL isn't giving me the option to enter a WPA passphrase...
[09:40] <xominous> Mark1: Well I think the next step would be to figure out the last 2 or 3 things it was saying/doing before it kicks you to the console. That will help us out a lot.
[09:40] <Oprtz> ziroday:  how to do that SIR ?
[09:40] <kieko> OMG!!!
[09:40] <kieko> team Ubuntu have done it again!
[09:40] <ziroday> Oprtz: well you can install mozilla-plugin-vlc for vlc or mozilla-mplayer for mplayer
[09:41] <kieko> another release! Congratulations Team Ubuntu
[09:41] <Mark1> the upgrade gave me no choice about what to remove or not  -  only that i should either keep or remove them.  I chose remove since I'd rtfm and it said to do that :D
[09:41] <Oprtz> ziroday:  from ADD/Remove program, search for mozilla-mplayer ?
[09:42] <ziroday> Oprtz: sure, or you can do it in Synaptic, or through the terminal apt-get or aptitude
[09:42] <FredTC> I'm using an Intel wireless card and WPA worked from Feisty-Hardy
[09:42] <Intey> so did they fix the uber chars torrent bug in 9.62?
[09:42] <Intey> crash i mean
[09:42] <FredTC> and as far as I know, it WOULD work in Intrepid except it's not even giving me the option to TRY
[09:42] <ziroday> Intey: look at the bug report
[09:42] <Oprtz> ziroday:  thanks buddy! i will install it and then try to play the very same file and then come back to u
[09:42] <Intey> kk

[09:47] <kieko> The 71 and 96 series of proprietary nVidia drivers, as provided by the nvidia-glx-legacy and nvidia-glx packages in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, are not compatible with the X.Org included in Ubuntu 8.10. Users with the nVidia TNT, TNT2, TNT Ultra, GeForce, GeForce2, GeForce3, and GeForce4 chipsets are affected and will be transitioned on upgrade to the free nv driver instead. This driver does not support 3D acceleration.
 what do i do?
[09:47] <Intey> waht distro
[09:47] <Mabo> giorno
[09:47] <Russian> kieko Thanks
[09:47] <ziroday> kieko: don't upgrade or use the opensource nv drivers
[09:47] <Intey> also, opera crashes on a 5 minutes basis when  using torrent is that a known thing or did I fubar something
[09:47] <ziroday> Intey: you need to contact opera for support on opera
[09:48] <Intey> huh?
[09:48] <kieko> i have nvidia 8500GT, so no upgrade for me?
[09:48] <Russian> Is it possible to run Adobe CS4 in Ubuntu?
[09:48] <crdlb> kieko: that's not in the list ...
[09:48] <Intey> isnt this the support channel?
[09:48] <kieko> crdlb, isn't it?
[09:48] <ziroday> kieko: the 8500GT is new enough, you are fine
[09:48] <crdlb> kieko: that would be a "GeForce8"
[09:48] <Intey> f-.-.-.-.-.-.-. sry just noticed that im in the wrong one bybye
[09:49] <Skriptkid> thanks dudes
[09:49] <bazhang> !appdb | Russian check here
[09:49] <kieko> crdlb, oh, right! ok, THANK YOU | ziroday
[09:49] <Russian> bazhang thanks
[09:49] <frederick851> does anybody know which package to install to run eclipse with the sun jdk

[09:51] <Oprtz> ziroday:  i install mozila mplayer (plugin for Mplayer) but still the same error :( i always get this error :(
[09:51] <ben2talk> hi
[09:51] <xRaich[o]2x> hi. is there a howto for installing the current version of "zfs on fuse" on intrepid? is it safe to use or could i lose my data?
[09:51] <macvr> jim_p: i installed radeonhd and also added it to the xorg.conf but still i'm not able to log on!!!
[09:51] <ziroday> Oprtz: have you got the correct drivers installed?
[09:52] <ziroday> Oprtz: sorry not drivers, codecs
[09:52] <Oprtz> ziroday:  i install W32codes
[09:52] <arie> ce_wes
[09:52] <ziroday> Oprtz: install the package restricted-extras
[09:52] <arie> lll
[09:53] <ziroday> Oprtz: or it could be site you are trying to watch vidoes on is just not compatible with linux
[09:53] <Oprtz> ziroday:  can u tell me the command to install restricted ?
[09:53] <admiral0> hi everyone. I've got a problem with my webcam
[09:53] <ziroday> Oprtz: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[09:54] <Oprtz> ziroday:  once i was able to play video from the very same website but now install a clean copy of ubuntu
[09:54] <alanbshepard77> I need help setting up internet connection sharing. I have my laptop with a wireless inet connection connected to my soon to be home server via an ethernet patch cable but I can't get my computer to share the connection. I need to connect my server to the net once for updates and I can't get it physical access to my router or dsl modem, it's just to big to move.
[09:54] <Oprtz> ziroday:  thanks
[09:54] <admiral0> it's a Hercules Optical glass deluxe with a Guillermot chip, and i've found the module to compile...
[09:54] <jim_p> macvr: can i ahve a look?
[09:54] <bazhang> !ics | alanbshepard77
[09:54] <admiral0> but it doesn't compile
[09:54] <orkun> i had backports enabled with gutsy, but decided i will not keep having them enabled - when i updated to intrepid they were still on for 1 day now - were there any that have been installed? or are the first backport updates released after like some months?
[09:55] <ThinkMinus> congrats to ubuntu developers and fans for ubuntu 8.10 DE......
[09:55] <macvr> jim_p: look at?
[09:55]  * Atomic_UE wonders how long it'll take to get evolution junk mail filters to work out of the box
[09:55] <Russian> kieko: How do you determinde how much swap space you need?
[09:55] <admiral0> i've found the solution here (http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=216204) , but i need help
[09:55] <rdw200169> Russian: 1G or 2G should be more than enough
[09:55] <AussieGuy> ive got a laptop running ubuntu, when the battery is discarghing the computer makes a really loud screeching noise, which wakes everyone up at night
[09:55] <alanbshepard77> bazhang: i've followed that guide and it still won't work. I've tried firestart numerous times but it always says one of the connection interfaces is not ready when in fact they are.
[09:56] <AussieGuy> so I cant really use the comp of a night. any way to disable the screeching sound?
[09:56] <rdw200169> Russian: much more than that and it would be better install more ram
[09:56] <ndo> guys, how do upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10, best methode?
[09:56] <kieko> Russian, yes, 1 or 2 gb plenty
[09:56] <moncojhr> i have 2 machines, one is dual booting XP/ubuntu desktop and then my other machine is running ubuntu server, id like to be able to control ubuntu server from the keyboard on my ubuntu desktop machine
[09:56] <arie> jhjjjgj
[09:56] <Russian> rdw200169 ok I go for 2 then =)
[09:56] <rdw200169> Russian: the swap is more of a backup to the ram, like the windows swap file
[09:56] <admiral0> anyone?
[09:56] <bazhang> !upgrade | ndo
[09:56] <bazhang> arie english
[09:56] <rdw200169> Russian: and it's slow like a windows swap file
[09:56] <ndo> ty
[09:56] <legend2440> orkun: open synaptic and click on Origin button. i think that will tell you if any packages are from backports
[09:56] <alanbshepard77> bazhang: Whats the terminal command to run on the client (my server in this case) to reassign dchp or from my laptop to re-issue an ip. If I can get it to work that's all I need.
[09:56] <Russian> rdw200169 so the less the better?, cause I have 4 GB of ram
[09:56] <jim_p> macvr: your xorg.conf
[09:57] <ben2talk> Has anyone seen >>>"This theme will not look as intended because the required GTK+ theme engine '' is not installed"<<<
[09:57] <ndo> Privet Russian :)
[09:57] <Russian> ndo Zdarova =)
[09:57] <rdw200169> Russian: honestly, if you ever actually do use the Swap, you're in trouble ;)
[09:57] <bazhang> alanbshepard77, what I know is in that factoid !ics
[09:58] <macvr> jim_p:  hei... wait.. just check my xorg... it still says fglrx... is it cause i tried to activate the restricted drivers after adding raedonhd?
[09:58] <ben2talk> have many folks here upgraded to 8.10 yet?
[09:58] <Oprtz> ziroday:  is it normal in ubuntu ( when i double click Windows Network...> windows computer on a wired LAN) it dont show me the shared folders, BUT i can see shared folders of ubuntu from windowsXP
[09:58] <Russian> rdw200169 how come, and I want to install it on a laptop =) x64
[09:58] <bazhang> ben2talk, the theme may not meet the new ibex specs yet
[09:58] <rdw200169> Russian: the linux kernel will always prioritize the ram
[09:59] <jim_p> macvr: yes! why did you go there?
[09:59] <ziroday> Oprtz: are the shared folders on the actual ubuntu machine?
[09:59] <rdw200169> Russian: the Swap is more of a safety precaution
[09:59] <ben2talk> Thanks bazhang: it works for root account, and displays fine in there
[09:59] <Russian> dw200169 so even 512 mb shoud be enough?
[09:59] <Oprtz> ziroday:  yes i have some shared folders on ubuntu machine as well as on windowsXP laptop
[09:59] <rdw200169> Russian: it's possible
[09:59] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  ive noticed it not showing the shres befor.. but i could type in the full path to the shares and it would access them.
[09:59] <kieko> Russian, normally one's Ram size is a determining factor. it is ususally 1.5 or 2 x ones ram i believe?
[09:59] <macvr> jim_p: cause obviously i'm stupid :-P ... i didnt realize i shouldnt do that.. wait i'll try again and report back...
[10:00] <Oprtz> ziroday: and both are on same workgroup "HOME"
[10:00] <Evdokimos> how dose one install unicode fonts on ubuntu 8.10?
[10:00] <rdw200169> Russian: most people would agree, though, that a gig to 2 gigs is adequate
[10:00] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  not sure if its gnome thats doing it..or somting going on with windows hideing them
[10:00] <Russian> rdw200169 and kieko aah oke thanks =) 2 gig then just to be sure
[10:00] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: if i'm not mistaken, ubuntu already uses Unicode for just about everythin
[10:00] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  if i disable firewall under windows, will it help ?
[10:00] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  some times i notice after i access the first share, and enter the user/pass in the dialog that pops up. I can then see the other shares
[10:00] <Evdokimos> I want to install extra fonts...
[10:01] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  could try.. buti got my firewall disabled and it still dosent see them all the time - well it dosen see them when it scans. :) it can access them
[10:01] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: in another language?
[10:01] <macvr> jim_p: i dont see a radeonhd in my synaptic... there is only a radeontool!!!
[10:01] <Evdokimos> yes, Greek
[10:01] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  i just bookmark the shares when i do access them.
[10:01] <aidy> hi
[10:01] <gafatoa> hello guys ! After update to 8.10 vuze freezes. Any advice ?
[10:02] <aidy> when I log off or try to poweroff, the x server hangs
[10:02] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: oh, the EASIEST way, is just to go to system -> administration -> language support
[10:02] <rdw200169> and add greek
[10:02] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  i know how to access window shared folders via smb:// computername/shared folder) but ubuntu should show the share folder when we double click windows machine
[10:02] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: it will install all the stuff necessary
[10:02] <jim_p> macvr: xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd
[10:02] <macvr> jim_p: no, found it!!! i'm re
[10:02] <jim_p> macvr: its in the universe repo
[10:02] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: and even let you switch your keyboard layout for greek input
[10:02] <Evdokimos> But I have some extra fonts I want to use, not just the ones with Ubuntu...
[10:02] <macvr> jim_p: i'm really out off my head !!!
[10:03] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: easy, just create the folder ~/.fonts
[10:03] <Oprtz> ziroday:  only 3 minutes remaining to install restricted application
[10:03] <legend2440> !fonts | Evdokimos
[10:03] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: and put them in there
[10:03] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  yep.. it should.. and ive noticed it does show them on my ubuntu fileserver. but no the vista fileserver... so Im not sure why its not..
[10:03] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: then they will show up in open office or whatever
[10:03] <Caesi> hullo, can sb help me with ekiga?
[10:03] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  culd be  some of the fileservers have the shares as not browseable, thus hidden - untill you access them.
[10:03] <mitrich> Hello! Can anybody help me? I tried to setup rtorrent with rtgui. I used official manual (http://code.google.com/p/rtgui/wiki/ubuntu_rtgui), but when I try to start rtorrent I have error: Error in option file: ~/.rtorrent.rc:70: Variable "scgi_port" does not exist.
[10:03] <Evdokimos> thank you!
[10:03] <jim_p> macvr: why???
[10:04] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  ahhh, so its normal in ubuntu then ? is there any TOOL for this to show shared window folders ?
[10:04] <Petester> is there anyone that can help me with setting up my wireless?
[10:04] <ndo> Guys, i push on the Upgrade button and nothing happens. Anything wrong?:)
[10:04] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: yeah, the ~/.fonts folder is a magic folder for fonts
[10:04] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  ive noticed some of the other samba 'browser/tools' do see them.. such as the fusesmb tool. and smb4k, and the smbclient tools
[10:05] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  so im not sure if its gnome at fault, or windows.. or a combo of the 2
[10:05] <Oprtz> cool
[10:05] <aidy> when I log off or try to poweroff, the x server hangs - after a while I get 'acpid exiting'
[10:05] <rdw200169> Evdokimos: thats where i store all my korean fonts i download ;)
[10:05] <favro> mitrich: tried commenting that line out?
[10:05] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  so which tool to install then
[10:05] <dr_willis> Oprtz, ive just learned to rember the shre names and type them in
[10:05] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  try them all :)
[10:05] <macvr> jim_p: i dont know ... i just am not able to think it straight !!!! i know i installed the xserver... but was checking the wrong thing!!! does it matter if i add as radeonhd / Radeonhd ? do caps matter?
[10:05] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  hehehehe
[10:05] <dr_willis> !info fusesmb
[10:05] <dr_willis> fusesmb is handy
[10:05] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  okie :)
[10:05] <mitrich> favro: this line is important
[10:06] <jim_p> macvr: yes
[10:06] <ndo> DO i have to reboot for upgrade to start?
[10:06] <favro> mitrich: it seems it is not an rtorrent option - spelt it right?
[10:06] <Minty95> I read that there is a Mobile USB image for 8.10 buggered if I can find it
[10:06] <macvr> jim_p: so its radeonhd? not Radeonhd.
[10:06] <mitrich> favro: no, scgi - it's apache mode
[10:06] <Guest5181> when I hibernate the computer, after wake-up screen goes white with only pointer on it. anybody knows why? ubu8.04
[10:06] <freakabcd> hi all

[10:07] <mitrich> favro: thx
[10:07] <jim_p> macvr: yes

[10:07] <macvr> jim_p: ok.. will reboot.. and report back..
[10:07] <freakabcd> i did the same things i had done on hardy
[10:07] <freakabcd> can someone help me out?
[10:07] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  do u have some knowledge about HP printers on a windows shared computer, i have manage to install a network shared printer in ubuntu, But the printer type GARBAGE text instead of origional tezt
[10:07] <Guest5181> when I hibernate the computer, after wake-up screen goes white with only pointer on it. anybody knows why? ubu8.04
[10:07] <favro> mitrich: you can't use apache stuff in rtorrents rc file
[10:07] <szymon_g> hi
[10:08] <mitrich> favro: no, it's line in rtorrent config
[10:08] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  thers so many variy of hp printers.. its hard to tell.
[10:08] <BoltClock> hi, ever since i upgraded to intrepid, whenever i shut down, halfway through the shutdown progress bar i suddenly see a blinking cursor and my system can never cleanly shut down. what gives?
[10:08] <mitrich> favro: it say to rtorrent on what port mod_scgi is listen to rtorrent
[10:09] <digifor> I am trying to follow this: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-using-apt-p2p-for-faster-upgrades-from-hardy-to-intrepid
[10:09] <ben2talk> I did that, now when I boot up it starts the 'apt-p2p'
[10:09] <Oprtz> dr_willis: okie, i will cheke the printer to diretly attached with ubuntu machine
[10:09] <ben2talk> good plan
[10:09] <ben2talk> however, after you upgrade, maybe you'll have trouble with themes :-s
[10:09] <digifor> I get this when I apt-get upgrade: W: Failed to fetch http://localhost:9977/*mirror-address*/ubuntu/dists/hardy/multiverse/source/Sources.gz  500 Internal Server Error
[10:10] <domas> hehehe, guys, have you seen a benchmark that would make less sense: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=fedora_test_2008&num=8 ? :)
[10:10] <digifor> What am I doing wrong?
[10:10] <mitrich> favro: I have Ubuntu 7.10
[10:10] <favro> mitrich: in the rc file you can only use rtorrent options - port_range etc
[10:10] <bazhang> domas, dont paste that here
[10:10] <mitrich> scgi_port - it's option
[10:10] <mitrich> favro: scgi_port - it's option
[10:11] <favro> mitrich: like hlinde says - you need a newer rtorrent to use that option
[10:11] <mitrich> favro: I used apt-get to get rtorrent
[10:11] <mitrich> Maybe, It's very old ...
[10:12] <ay^> hum.. I know this is the wrong place, but I just installed and configured a few gdesklets, but I dont want to have 8 "gdesklets-daemon" in the taskbar, are these supposed to go away after my next login, or is something wrong?
[10:12] <favro> mitrich: you will need to get the svn version - the one for gutsy isn't new enough
[10:12] <mitrich> favro: thx, i'll try now
[10:13] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  what is the Terminal command to install Real Player for ubuntu 8.10 ? thanks
[10:13] <mitrich> favro: maybe, I need to change repository from Gusty to Hardy?
[10:13] <Caesi> hullo, which command must I use after ./configure --> "make install" ??
[10:13] <BoltClock> help! ever since i upgraded to intrepid, whenever i shut down, halfway through the shutdown progress bar i suddenly see a blinking cursor and my system can never cleanly shut down, as in next time i start intrepid at least one component will break (first pidgin now alsa). what gives?
[10:14] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  ive not had to use realplayer in years.. try installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras package and see if gmplayer can handle it.
[10:14] <ay^> ah Ill try conky instaed
[10:14] <favro> mitrich: unless you use hardy that is not wise
[10:14] <dr_willis> ay^,  supposed tobe one icon there.
[10:14] <frybye> whats the best way to install skype (32bit ibex?=)
[10:14] <bazhang> !skype
[10:14] <dr_willis> ay^,  conky can take a little tweaking to work right with gnome and kde.
[10:14] <jokoon-ext3grep> Hello, I accidentally put my whole home user directory in /tmp and ubuntu just gracefully rm -r all that is in /tmp, I tried ext3grep to recover my files, does ubuntu zeroes every each byte that remains in /tmp ?
[10:14] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  i am installing :) right now
[10:14] <ay^> dr_willis: yeah I have that one but what I mean are eight "running apps" at the bottom
[10:15] <legend2440> Caesi: usualy make then make install  but there sohould be an Install or Readme file to tell you
[10:15] <Caesi> legend2440: thanks
[10:15] <ay^> dr_willis: mkay, if it's too much of a annoyance I'll just leav an xterm running with top ;P
[10:15] <mitrich> favro: ok, i'll try compile myself
[10:15] <blaksvan> I just installed 8.10 but I don't have sound at all. I checked the volume control and the right device has been picked. Any suggestions?
[10:15] <favro> !compile | mitrich
[10:16] <Caesi> legend2440: it says "make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop."
[10:16] <Caesi> any idea? :)
[10:17] <dr_willis> ay^,  there are speicl ways to get a transparent xterm on the desktop :)
[10:17] <ay^> dr_willis: I know :)
[10:17] <favro> you're in the wrong directory prob Caesi
[10:17] <legend2440> Caesi: what are you compiling?
[10:17] <ay^> or, I know an easy way
[10:17] <Caesi> ekiga
[10:17] <ay^> dr_willis: that I assume would work
[10:17] <Caesi> hm I think I am favro
[10:17] <mitrich> favro: oh, yeah, deb package )
[10:18] <legend2440> Caesi: ekiga is in the repos  why compile?
[10:18] <favro> mitrich: getdeb might have one
[10:18] <ben2talk> blaksvan - no sound when you login?
[10:18] <Caesi> I want the new vers
[10:18] <Caesi> 3.0.1
[10:18] <blaksvan> ben2talk I dont have sound at all. even in the login.
[10:19] <Oprtz> ziroday: installed the ubuntu restricted package, and i can see Real Players videos BUT the .wma and .asf files not working for me ? :((
[10:19] <ziroday> Oprtz: I don't think those videos work under linux, sorry
[10:19] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  gety the medibuntu repository setup and isntall the w32codecs package also :)
[10:20] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  how ? can u guide me please
[10:20] <dr_willis> !medibuntu | Oprtz
[10:20] <domas> bazhang: why not
[10:20] <domas> bazhang: ? :)
[10:20] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  is this is command ? sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/intrepid.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update
[10:21] <bazhang> !offtopic | domas
[10:21] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  go to that site - read/follow their directions... thats one of the commands...
[10:21] <domas> bazhang: it is about ubuntu...
[10:21] <bazhang> domas this is a support channel; talk about that in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here
[10:21] <domas> bazhang: actually, it is especially about ubuntu
[10:21] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  okie dude!
[10:21] <domas> bazhang: talk about ubuntu performance is #ubuntu-offtopic ? :)
[10:21] <domas> dude, you have issues
[10:22] <Gnea> domas: no, you need to realize how things work around here - you're referring to an offtopic discussion. we do support in here.
[10:23] <domas> :)
[10:23] <diellon> hi
[10:23] <domas> ok, lemmie ask support question, where do I get debug symbols packages for apache/php? :)
[10:23] <Gnea> domas: and if your attitude doesn't change, you'll be the one with issues.
[10:23] <domas> I just changed my attitude! :)
[10:24] <Gnea> >:)
[10:24] <jokoon-ext3grep> Gnea, help me ! my teacher put my /home/user directory in /tmp and ubuntu deleted everything... I tried ext3grep, but it find nothing :-(
[10:24] <Gnea> jokoon-ext3grep: apologize to your teacher, maybe s/he will give it back.
[10:24] <domas> jokoon-ext3grep: backups always help!
[10:25] <diellon> apt-get install amsn dont doit in ubntu in terminal
[10:25] <bazhang> diellon, use sudo
[10:25] <domas> see, I asked support question, and nobody cares to even look at it!
[10:25] <Gnea> domas: just apt-cache search apache  if you see some show up, then there they are
[10:25] <domas> Gnea: they don't show up for php!
[10:25] <Gnea> !patience | domas
[10:25] <jokoon-ext3grep> Gnea, he was just trying to solve an issue to connect my ubuntu laptop to a suse network, nothing personal.
[10:25] <domas> Gnea: php build spec has dh_strip in it, and no other package! :)
[10:26] <ue> Hello all, fater upgrade to 8.10 my file system became readonly, any solutions to this problem ? when bootin in recovery mode the file system is still readonly
[10:26] <Gnea> domas: that's nice.
[10:26] <jrib> !debug | domas
[10:26] <domas> Gnea: which part is nice?
[10:26] <domas> jrib: debug symbols are not only for debugging, they're for profiling too
[10:26] <domas> you can't have backtraces when your symbols are stripped, can you? :)
[10:26] <jrib> domas: idc what they are for... that page tells you where packages with debug symbols are...
[10:27] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  i dont understand from where to get the terminal commands inside the http://www.medibuntu.org/ website, can u have a look at the webside
[10:27] <bonhoffer> is it possible to run linux as a virtual machine on top of windows
[10:27] <bazhang> bonhoffer, yes use virtualbox
[10:27] <bonhoffer> i know vmware let me run scipy on my windows machine
[10:27] <frederick851> How do I make eclipse so it runs from the SUN JDK
[10:27] <Gnea> !undelete | jokoon-ext3grep
[10:27] <Gnea> jokoon-ext3grep: have you tried any of those?
[10:27] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  get?  you pasted one of them.. that sets the repo.. you then use your normal package manager to install what you want
[10:27] <frederick851> well wrong wording, how to i make it so my programs use the SUN JDK
[10:28] <bonhoffer> bazhang, so virtualbox can run ubuntu on vista64 bit
[10:28] <domas> jrib: you must have very keen eyes - because I don't see where it mentions how to find debug packages that don't exist
[10:28] <sfire> the PC speaker beeps are coming out the sound card on my laptop and they are loud.. how can I disable these annoying beeps?
[10:28] <Gnea> frederick851: make it so the SUN JDK is the java engine that's installed
[10:28] <bazhang> bonhoffer, best to check the vbox site for that
[10:28] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  the command i paste here in from some other website ( http://www.dailygyan.com/2008/11/10-things-you-should-do-immediately.html )
[10:28] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/intrepid.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
[10:28] <dr_willis>  use the medibuntu docs.. not some other sites
[10:28] <Gnea> !java | frederick85
[10:28] <bonhoffer> bazhang, o.k. i just thought virtualbox ran on posix only
[10:28] <jokoon-ext3grep> Gnea, yes I tried ext3grep
[10:28] <jrib> domas: click on the first few links and read a little.  They are there.  You may need to update information for intrepid by changing "hardy" to "intrepid"
[10:29] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  they just consoilidated the setps into one.
[10:29] <domas> jrib: we're running hardy :)
[10:29] <jrib> domas: even easier then :)
[10:29] <bonhoffer> is there a good room for virtualization that anyone knows about?
[10:29] <prince_jammys> Oprtz: have you tried with a different player (eg. vlc or mplayer) ?
[10:29] <Oprtz> dr_willis:  its already installed,
[10:29] <jrib> !virtualizer | bonhoffer
[10:29] <frederick85> Gnea: I installed the sun JDK then eclipse and it decided to try use GCJ instead i had that problem a year ago also
[10:29] <dr_willis> Oprtz,  then install the packages you were wanting..  you should be all setup
[10:30] <Oprtz> prince_jammys:  not yet, how to tell firefox to run vlc plugin when playing .asf movies in a web browser
[10:30] <BoltClock> i need help getting my newly-upgraded intrepid to shut down properly. right now it just dumps terminal output and stalls, and i need to use the power button to silence it. it started since i upgraded
[10:30] <Gnea> frederick85: i'm not sure then
[10:30] <domas> jrib: hah, ddebs, right
[10:30] <legend2440> sfire: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=320921
[10:30] <prince_jammys> Oprtz: I don't know. I normally download them and play them separately with vlc/mplayer
[10:31] <ue> Hello all, after upgrade to 8.10 my file system became readonly, any solutions to this problem ? when bootin in recovery mode the file system is still readonly
[10:31] <Oprtz> prince_jammys:  i want to play inside web browser :(
[10:31] <Oprtz> dr_willis , ziroday and prince_jammys:   thanks for the help,
[10:31] <domas> jrib: the link was mislabeled, I mostly need symbols for oprofile, not for 'debugging crashing programs' ;-)
[10:32] <Don> How can i set my windows so that thay are transparent? In Gnome.
[10:32] <Gnea> ue: have you tried booting the livecd and fscking the partition from there?
[10:32] <Oprtz> time to quit, will see ya,
[10:32] <Oprtz> bye all
[10:32] <rdw200169> Don: are you using compiz?
[10:32] <sfire> legend2440: thank you very much.. that is the most annoying thing in the world
[10:32] <ue> Gnea, I  can fscking in recovery mode
[10:32] <jrib> !ccsm | Don
[10:33] <rdw200169> Don: try emerald, it's a window manager that runs with compiz
[10:33] <Gnea> ue: but have you done it from the livecd? recovery mode still requires / to be mounted, whether it's readonly or not. if it's readonly, it may not fsck right.
[10:33] <rdw200169> Don: it takes over the window borders, and most of their themes are transparent
[10:33] <ue> Gnea, nope not from livecd, will try that then, thx u
[10:34] <Gnea> ue: good luck
[10:35] <ahmad> hi all, after i installed ubuntu 8.10 my ntfs drives require mounting every time i log in, is there a way to get them mounted automatically?
[10:35] <reiki>  ok how do I turn off desktop effects? I found it to turn it on and now can't find it to turn it off. :)
[10:35] <reiki> ahmad: put them in fstab
[10:35] <ay^> reiki: System - Preferences - Appearnce
[10:35] <domas> oh, I have another support question:   php5-cgi-dbgsym: Depends: php5-cgi (= 5.2.4-2ubuntu5) but 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.3 is to be installed
[10:35] <domas> how to get up-to-date debug symbols package? :)
[10:36] <domas> or rather, matching
[10:36] <reiki> ay^: thanks.... I was in there and missed the tab.... doh!
[10:36] <ahmad> reiki, but in 8.04 i didn't need to do that, is that normal?
[10:36] <ay^> reiki: hehe :)
[10:36] <Gnea> domas: you could try downloading the package and installing it by hand
[10:36] <domas> is the .3 mostly packaging issue?
[10:37] <domas> because if binaries don't match, there's not much use then
[10:37] <jrib> domas: pastebin your current sources.list
[10:37] <Gnea> I can only give you a suggestion, I don't have an absolute answer to your question.
[10:37] <lianimator> I downloaded ubuntu 8.10 liveCD and tested it. I want to upgrade, so i have to download again...?
[10:37] <domas> http://p.defau.lt/?GuHMmDLHr1PkMJmV8OLScQ
[10:37] <Caesi> exit
[10:37] <reiki> ahmad, honestly I'm not sure. I see what you mean though. If you go into "Places" and the drives show there, they'll mount the first time you try to access them
[10:37] <domas> Gnea: I know how to workaround that - add yet another package to our internal package repo :(
[10:38] <jrib> domas: get rid of the hardy-proposed ddebs
[10:38] <domas> jrib: same failure
[10:39] <plouffe> Trying to upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10. Ran a apt-get dist-upgrade which had download problems, had to run apt-get dist-upgrade --fix-missing, which finished the download but then ran into this problem --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/65643/
[10:39] <jrib> domas: pastebin: apt-cache policy php5-cgi-dbgsym php5-cgi
[10:39] <ahmad> reiki, they also require authentication to be mounted, will fstab require root password?
[10:39] <lianimator> I don't have enough space to upgrade. "needs total of 1142M of free space on disk '/'. Please free at least an additional 610M...
[10:39] <cabrini> can I make a file on a usb stick execute automatically on livecd boot?
[10:39] <domas> jrib: http://p.defau.lt/?krMxZWXtky__KwgxNNuzyQ ;-)
[10:39] <domas> jrib: I see you have decent amount of nice people, that you use 'pastebin' as a verb. I even run my own pastebin service! :)
[10:39] <reiki> ahmad, fstab doesn't require password, no
[10:40] <plouffe> How can I fix this problem and proceed with the upgrade?
[10:40] <ahmad> ok, thanks alot reiki

[10:41] <C4N-S|SEAL45> I need help from a ubuntu master!!
[10:41] <SJrX> What is the MASQUEREDE for in iptables for nat
[10:41] <domas> jrib: so it is not like ddebs is 'lagging'
[10:41] <reiki> plouffe, try uninstalling amarok

[10:41] <LenBright> upgrade to 8.10 and atheros 5212 on channel 13 no longer working, re-added "ath_pci countrycode=276" to etc/modprobe.d/options. can anyone help?
[10:41] <rdw200169> SJrX: it's for NAT
[10:41] <SJrX> do I have to use it
[10:41] <plouffe> reiki I uninstall and then after that?
[10:42] <rdw200169> SJrX: its what translates local IP address stuff, <IP_ADDRESS>/24 for example, to a single internet connection
[10:42] <rdw200169> !nat
[10:42] <digifor> Why would apt-get update hang on 41% waiting for headers?
[10:42] <Gnea> !iptables | SJrX
[10:43] <reiki> plouffe, retry your last command to update... I read in the forums that others had problems and it stalled at amarok. I'm not sure the actual program is the problem but there seems some connection between installing it during upgrade and these failures
[10:43] <Drod> I ran update manager and part of the update was "linux-headers-2.6.24-21", but when I boot the grub list only shows the 2.5.24-19, do I need to change grub manually?
[10:43] <lianimator> Since I don't have enough space on "/" to upgrade from internet, can I mount another partition into "/tmp" for a while?
[10:43] <Gnea> digifor: it happens sometimes. i just ctrl-c and start over
[10:43] <reiki> plouffe, you can complete the upgrade and then try reinstalling amarok by itself
[10:43] <MrBougo> hello. I fear this is not the good place to ask, but I have no idea where to... Is there any way to make a window go fullscreen automatically?
[10:43] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynergyHowto C4N-S|SEAL45
[10:43] <plouffe> reiki: I don't need amarok, but I continue with dist-upgrade then, ok thanks
[10:43] <C4N-S|SEAL45> i have read that bazhang
[10:43] <rdw200169> lianimator: well, you can adjust where apt stores the .deb files
[10:43] <C4N-S|SEAL45> im still in despair
[10:44] <Ta1> Hello people, I run ubuntu hardy heron on my Celeron 1.1 GHz 256 mb ram computer, But it used to crash upon use of PDF files. I need an advice to enhance my system speed and to get rid of un-nescessary resources consuming processes
[10:44] <lacostej> Has anyone seen a splitted screen refresh problem like this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zV-RzwLQH2c ? Is this some hardware or software problem ? Started 2 days ago. I've been running Ibex for 5-6 weeks.
[10:44] <MrBougo> at the moment I'm using some weird combination of sleep and wmctrl to set some fullscreen flag on a window 2 seconds after it's been launched
[10:44] <lianimator> MrBougo: are you using compiz? if so, it's easy.
[10:44] <prince_jammys> MrBougo: the application may have a --fullscreen option, or similar
[10:44] <MrBougo> lianimator, prince_jammys, nope
[10:44] <Gnea> C4N-S|SEAL45: you're going to need to explain your problem, in detail. we can't help you otherwise.
[10:44] <MrBougo> I'm using metacity
[10:44] <C4N-S|SEAL45> syergy wont connect
[10:44] <C4N-S|SEAL45> to the vista machine im useing as the server
[10:44] <MrBougo> and the app's builtin fullscreen is not as good as the wm's fullscreen
[10:44] <Ta1> Hello people, I run ubuntu hardy heron on my Celeron 1.1 GHz 256 mb ram computer, But it used to crash upon use of PDF files. I need an advice to enhance my system speed and to get rid of un-nescessary resources consuming processes
[10:44] <eric> aas
[10:44] <bazhang> C4N-S|SEAL45, check the firewall on either side
[10:44] <jrib> domas: I don't know why those are out of date.  I guess you can build your own (it's on the wiki page) and file a bug
[10:45] <domas> jrib: ah, it is truncated: http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/dists/hardy-security/main/binary-amd64/Packages
[10:45] <C4N-S|SEAL45> how do i check the firewall on the ubuntu machine?
[10:45] <domas> jrib: stops at a*
[10:45] <MrBougo> lianimator, actually, I was wondering if there was such a feature for metacity
[10:45] <lianimator> rdw200169: I'm interested.
[10:45] <bazhang> C4N-S|SEAL45, check iptables
[10:45] <lianimator> MrBougo: what application?
[10:45] <MrBougo> Nexuiz
[10:45] <bazhang> !firewall | C4N-S|SEAL45
[10:45] <jrib> domas: good catch
[10:45] <MrBougo> I can't run it under compiz
[10:46] <xukun> I have broken packages how I fix that?
[10:46] <Ta1> Hello people, I run ubuntu hardy heron on my Celeron 1.1 GHz 256 mb ram computer, But it used to crash upon use of PDF files. I need an advice to enhance my system speed and to get rid of un-nescessary resources consuming processes
[10:46] <MrBougo> and I'm using wmctrl-induced fullscreen so I can alt-tab out of it
[10:46] <vonderer> hi there… how can I edit keyboard layout?
[10:46] <domas> jrib: I'll just open a case with canonical I guess
[10:46] <scoobynz> hi there, trying to install adobe reader (acroread) on 64bit intrepid. Have the medibuntu free and non-free repos but still cant see it. Anyone know whats going on?
[10:46] <MrBougo> it works, but I have to use sleep 6 then trigger wmctrl so that the window gets maximized, but sometimes it appears *after* 6 seconds and nothing happens
[10:46] <digifor> Gnea, thanks for reply. thought maybe a bad list.
[10:47] <bazhang> Ta1, you might try xfce or something lighter then
[10:47] <Ta1> bazhang: is xfce faster than gnome?
[10:47] <bazhang> Ta1, xfce, fluxbox, lxde and a few others are much lighter
[10:48] <Ta1> bazhang: Thanx bazhang, I will try this
[10:48] <bazhang> Ta1, lighter = faster
[10:48] <SJrX> Do things have to be -j MASQUEREDE in order for NAT to work
[10:48] <MrBougo> sorry, I lost connection... last message I got was "Ta1, you might try xfce or something lighter then"
[10:48] <MrBougo> oh
[10:48] <AKADEMIK2283MCZ> does exist driver for nvidia g force 4 mx 4400 in ubuntu 8.10?
[10:48] <digifor> I notice each time it is hanging 41% on hardy release
[10:49] <MrBougo> lianimator, I think I'll give Devil's Pie a try
[10:49] <Gnea> C4N-S|SEAL45: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/fixing-problems-with-synergy-on-windows-vista/  perhaps
[10:49] <MrBougo> sounds like what I'm looking for
[10:49] <Ta1> MrBougo: Thanx I will try to install xfce now
[10:49] <MrBougo> uh
[10:49] <Gnea> AKADEMIK2283MCZ: could be nvidia-glx-legacy
[10:49] <MrBougo> Ta1, bazhang said that, not me
[10:49] <AKADEMIK2283MCZ> where can i get it
[10:49] <Gnea> that's the name of the package.
[10:49] <k1ko> hi all :)
[10:50] <Ta1> MrBougo: Anyway , I will try it :D
[10:50] <AKADEMIK2283MCZ> there is nothing on package menager
[10:50] <AKADEMIK2283MCZ> or hardware driver
[10:50] <Gnea> AKADEMIK2283MCZ: and if you search for  nvidia-glx?
[10:50] <AKADEMIK2283MCZ> i didn try
[10:50] <Gnea> go for it
[10:50] <reiki> sudo aptitude search nvidia
[10:51] <Gnea> sudo is not required to search for packages
[10:51] <reiki> oh yeah..... I'm just so used to using it for install ... hehehe
[10:51] <Gnea> :)
[10:51] <Ta1> Is there a lighter pdf reader than that included in hardy heron?
[10:51] <kulfi> hello. i recently installed ubuntu server. in my PHP web app  i'm getting a "undefined function curl_init" error. how do i check if i have libcurl installed?
[10:51] <msshams> i have ubuntu 8.10 on a cd. but it hasn't cdromupgrade file. how can i upgrade my ubuntu with that cd?
[10:51] <jrib> Ta1: xpdf maybe?
[10:51] <ottoshmidt> add/remove applications contains popularity ratings, how can I vote?
[10:52] <AKADEMIK2283MCZ> hoho

[10:52] <anders> Ta1, xpdf
[10:52] <AKADEMIK2283MCZ> but i sacrifised one night for net uppgrade
[10:52] <scoobynz> I found acroread by doing a search rather than a quick search in synaptic.
[10:52] <Deamer> kulfi: have you tried phpinfo()?
[10:52] <bouma> can i apt-get beamer with ubuntu
[10:52] <Ta1> jrib: thanx
[10:52] <kulfi> deamer, yes, there was no libcurl info in the results
[10:53] <Ta1> anders: Thanx
[10:53] <domas> jrib: interesting, http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/p/php5/ doesn't have the packages either, so it seems to be broken hardy ddebs process, argh.
[10:53] <jrib> ottoshmidt: That's probably from popcon.ubuntu.com .  You can enable it in the "Statistics" tab of Software Sources
[10:53] <ottoshmidt> jrib, thanks
[10:54] <k1ko> anyone who's dealing with AS3.0 here?
[10:54] <kulfi> phpinfo doesn't show any libcurl info. but "locate libcurl" returns "/usr/lib/libcurl-gnutls.so.3" etc.
[10:55] <domas> kulfi: apt-get install php5-curl
[10:55] <kulfi> domas, thanks, i'll try that
[10:55] <Ta1> How can I install Xfce 4.4 on hardy heron?
[10:55] <domas> oh, another support question, how to deal with reentrant pthread mutex calls by singlethreaded processes such as apache? :)
[10:55] <molgrum> since i upgraded to 8.10, my rear speakers suddenly stopped working
[10:55] <kulfi> domas, thank you looks like its working!

[11:00] <norbert> Hi guys, i have a little question. I run on console uname -a give me "Linux ubuntu 2.6.24-21-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 21 23:09:30 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux" But wehen i look into "System Monitor 2.22.3" i only see 3.2Gib. I know for a fact that there is 4GiB on the motherboard. Any thoughts?
[11:00] <k1ko> thanks :)
[11:00] <bazhang> cpro, turn off compiz; does that speed things up at all?
[11:01] <k1ko> norbert: you're running 32 bit ubuntu thats why :)
[11:01] <rbanffy> Hi folks. I am having trouble installing 8.10 from a USB stick. Installation aborts at 58% while copying files because some files are corrupted. The conventional USB stick making process seems not to work.
[11:01] <norbert> Why dpoes uname give me back then x86_64 ?
[11:01] <k1ko> norbert: w8 a sec
[11:01] <cpro> bazhang not much
[11:01] <Ta1> is upgrading hardy heron to 8.10 takes less time than downloading the iso image and burning cd? or it is the same?
[11:02] <bazhang> cpro, open a terminal and type top; what is eating much of your cpu
[11:02] <Rishab> hey all
[11:02] <k1ko> norbert: so u have installed x64 version o ubuntu
[11:02] <k1ko> ?
[11:03] <norbert> Yes as fare as i know i did.
[11:03] <cpro> bazhang firefox 21 %
[11:03] <alexoandro> hola
[11:03] <bazhang> cpro, do you have many plugins for firefox
[11:03] <Rishab> well is there any way to increase the speed ??
[11:04] <bazhang> Ta1, depends on your net connection
[11:04] <Rishab> application takes too much time for opening
[11:04] <sfire> anyone having problems with wireless after upgrading please talk to me.. I've got the solution :)
[11:04] <prince_jammys> I assume you'd have more configuration to do if you do a clean install from iso image
[11:04] <k1ko> norbert: i'm not an expert... sorry. I have  4gigs too and I install the 32bit ubuntu (4.10) and I thought that it's the same for you
[11:04] <bazhang> Rishab, do you have any third party repos
[11:04] <mtholdenss> hey
[11:04] <Ta1> bazhang: I mean do I need to download all packages, or it will select specific packages to upgrade the current install
[11:05] <zx> how to delete files at DVD-rw?
[11:05] <k1ko> (sorry for my english) :-[
[11:05] <Rishab> no i suppose
[11:05] <bazhang> Ta1, it will upgrade what you have installed
[11:05] <HazardousWaster> t
[11:05] <norbert> I understand but that is exactly the reason why i wondert. I know the limition of 32bit ubuntu (any 32bit OS) ;)
[11:05] <rbanffy> Hi folks. I am having trouble installing 8.10 from a USB stick. Installation aborts at 58% while copying files because some files are corrupted. The conventional USB stick making process seems not to work.
[11:05] <bazhang> Rishab, please paste.ubuntu.com with /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:05] <mikebeecham> can anyone tell me what the best torrent software is on Ubuntu?
[11:05] <cpro> bazhang i have 10 plugins
[11:06] <Rishab> bazhang nothing else
[11:06] <bazhang> cpro, try to disable them one by one until you hit the problem one; some of them are huge memory hogs
[11:06] <mtholdenss> here is my scenario, i want to use ubuntu as my main os but have to use windows xp for all my adobe cs4 work and my music is there using itunes. i only created a 20 gb partition for ubuntu, and my music library is 30 gb. is it possible to use the itunes Database as a libary in a application here?
[11:06] <favro> mikebeecham: I like rtorrent
[11:06] <Ta1> bazhang: so it will not download the whole system? I have installed hardy heron and unfortunately it took 12 hours via network installation
[11:06] <mikebeecham> favro...is that similiar or as good as utorrent?
[11:06] <cpro> ok
[11:06] <cpro> bazhang ok
[11:06] <bazhang> cpro, I use adblock plus, flashblock, and quick locale switcher only and firefox is very fast for the same system as yours
[11:07] <favro> mikebeecham: it is a lightweight cli torrent client
[11:07] <mikebeecham> favro...better than transmission that ships with ubuntu?
[11:07] <Rishab> one more thing bazhang many applications are not available and the new version also in my repo so i need to add some sites for that
[11:07] <mtholdenss> i mean an option could be is to have all my music on my xp setup for syncing with itunes, sync it then plug my ipod in when ubuntu is loaded and use songbird to play my music.
[11:07] <kieko> OMG! i was upgrading and suddenly my background changed and it hasn't even rebooted yet! how exciting!
[11:07] <bazhang> Ta1, well back up then get the torrent and fresh install
[11:08] <zx> anybody can help me?
[11:08] <bazhang> Rishab, please paste.ubuntu.com the sources.list
[11:08] <favro> mikebeecham: that depends on your point of view - it uses less resources and works as well if not better imo
[11:08] <mtholdenss> zx, ask your question?
[11:08] <Ta1> bazhang: well, is it easy to install it from hard disk? I couldn't install hardy heron from hard disk as i have no removable media here
[11:09] <reiki> anyone else with nvidia seeing video anamolies in title bars when focus changes?
[11:09] <rockyrock> Is there any program fro ubuntu like Internet Download Manager in Windows that increases the speed of the download????
[11:09] <zx> I am new guy to use ubuntu, so who can tell me how to format DVD-RW disk?
[11:09] <netyire> rockyrock: d4x
[11:10] <Rishab> bazhang tell me the complete line to be added
[11:10] <bazhang> Ta1, aha; well then net upgrade does seem the best option
[11:10] <prince_jammys> rockyrock: there are several download managers available. search in apt
[11:10] <mtholdenss> how can i remove the 10 sec timer on grub boot loader?
[11:10] <netyire> zx: it's done automatically when you use the built in cd burner in nautilus, or make use of k3b
[11:10] <Ta1> bazhang: Ok thanx for help :)
[11:10] <bazhang> Rishab, /etc/apt/sources.list copy that to paste.ubuntu.com and give us the url
[11:10] <rockyrock> prince_jammys: i want one that increases the speed, this is my only concern
[11:10] <Don> Can some body tell me ware i can find the pack emerald-themes
[11:10] <rockyrock> netyire: i want one that increases the speed, this is my only concern
[11:10] <prince_jammys> mtholdenss: by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:11] <k1ko> to all actionscripters who use gedit and the compiler of the free Flex SDK: i've made a bash script to compile the .as files and to show the compiled .swf file using the "External Tools" plugin of gedit. if you're interested write to me :) . Just wanted to share.. :)
[11:11] <mtholdenss> thanks :)
[11:11] <bazhang> Don, apt-cache search emerald
[11:11] <domas> hehe, another support question, kswapd deadlocked jfs on my machine, when filesystem was full, what should I do? :)
[11:11] <netyire> rockyrock: do you mind the command prompt?
[11:11] <Don> thx
[11:11] <netyire> rockyrock: if you use firefox, download the downthemall extension at addons.mozilla.org
[11:11] <prince_jammys> mtholdenss: you'll see a 'timeout' line
[11:11] <rockyrock> netyire: no i just want something powerful like internet download manager
[11:11] <zx>  i have tried it but tell me error
[11:11] <netyire> rockyrock: or use d4x, its a gui
[11:11] <frybye> re skype on intrepid with eeepc-701 and kernel from www.array.com - no mike working - any tips!?
[11:12] <rockyrock> netyire: is d4x as powerful as Internet download manager?
[11:12] <bazhang> frybye, that kernel is not supported here; contact Adam for that
[11:12] <rockyrock> netyire: i want the most powerful one
[11:12] <joaopinto> frybye, on the skype device config, select your hw micro device
[11:12] <rockyrock> netyire: i doj
[11:12] <mtholdenss> prince_jammys, delete the timeout line and save?
[11:12] <prince_jammys> mtholdenss: i don't know. you could try changing the number to zero
[11:12] <netyire> rockyrock: the most powerful one I know is axel but it's a command line program, you run it with axel -n <number of threads> <file to download>
[11:13] <prince_jammys> mtholdenss: i
[11:13] <prince_jammys> mtholdenss: i'd do that first, before deleting the line
[11:13] <reiki> make it a 1
[11:13] <reiki> not 0
[11:13] <rockyrock> netyire: yeah it doesn't matter wether it's command prompt or gui
[11:13] <vonderer> how can I make X.org use mouse driver instead of evdev?
[11:13] <reiki> gives you time to hit a key if needed
[11:13] <Don> bazhang: but thar is no pack with the name emerald-themes found
[11:13] <vonderer> HAL loads it by default, but I need standard mouse driver
[11:14] <netyire> rockyrock: go with axel then, works for me even when some of the commercial download managers on windows fail
[11:14] <netyire> rockyrock: you can install it from the repos by running "sudo apt-get install axel" in a terminal
[11:14] <jrib> vonderer: you can write your own .fdi files and drop them in /etc/hal/
[11:14] <Rishab> bazhang thx
[11:14] <zx> i just install ubuntu one week, where have file tell me how to use this OS?
[11:14] <bazhang> Don, try at gnome-look.org
[11:14] <rockyrock> netyire: have you used internet download manager?
[11:14] <pa1-cheru> hi
[11:14] <rockyrock> netyire: is it as powerful as IDM?
[11:15] <domas> UUIDs are evil
[11:15] <domas> for filesystems
[11:15] <reiki> UUIDs are awesome! :)
[11:15] <netyire> rockyrock: I can't say if I've tried idm, haven't touched windows in a long time, I avoid it like the plague, but I'm sure axel works (you can specify 9999 threads if your system can take it)
[11:15] <vonderer> jrib: if I knew how to do it… is there any way to make ubuntu use xorg.conf instead of hal, when loading InputDevices?
[11:16] <vonderer> ubuntu 8.10 I mean
[11:16] <domas> reiki: lies! filesystems have way shorter life than device names!
[11:16] <netyire> rockyrock: do you make use of any particular feature of idm?
[11:16] <reiki> vonderer, put the input devices into xorg.conf and that will override hal
[11:16] <frybye> bazhang: theoretically I can understand that.. i dont think he runs an irc# though...
[11:16] <vonderer> reiki: will it? I mean, it didn't work for keyboard
[11:16] <rockyrock> netyire: what do you mean by threads mirrors??? And no i don't use any features, i just need something that accelerate the download as IDM does
[11:17] <frybye> joaopinto: bit trying any and everything for an hour or so...
[11:17] <bazhang> frybye, that is a completely different kernel than the one from ubuntu; fixes here wont work with his
[11:17] <chippy> hotmail users: is hotmail broken with firefox and opera on Ubuntu / linux ?
[11:17] <chippy> or is it just me?
[11:17] <reiki> vonderer, when I was looking through hal and logs and stuff yesterday, it appears that if you have entries in xorg.conf, they will be used.
[11:17] <jrib> vega: and look at /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-x11-input.fdi to base your own fdi (I think writing your own and dropping it in /etc/hal works and is better than just editing this file) .  You can make specify input devices in xorg.conf if you add some options, see 'man xorg.conf' and the AutoAddDevices option
[11:17] <pa1-cheru> im using
[11:17] <pa1-cheru> hardy heron
[11:17] <marshal0605> chippy it works for me
[11:17] <vonderer> reiki: thanks, gonna try that
[11:17] <jrib> vonderer: see what I wrote to vega...
[11:18] <netyire> rockyrock: axel accelerates downloads, I'm sure it'll suit your needs if you don't require any advance features like scheduling, auto-shutdown on complete, etc
[11:18] <pa1-cheru> how i install need for speed in ubuntu
[11:18] <bazhang> !appdb | pa1-cheru check here
[11:18] <pa1-cheru> how i install games like need for speed in ubuntu
[11:18] <rockyrock> netyire: yeah just need to accelerate the download, because i go to internet cafes so i want the program to get most of the speed in the internet cafe
[11:19] <netyire> pa1-cheru: check out wine (http://www.winehq.hu)
[11:19] <bazhang> pa1-cheru, visit that website, then /j #winehq
[11:19] <chippy> marshal0605,  ok. cheers. will have a dig around. google searches appear that a few others have same problem
[11:19] <rockyrock> pa1-cheru: use wine
[11:19] <frybye> bazhang: on his website he claims his kernel is "very near" the generic one - but nevermind...
[11:19] <milovanderlinden> Hi all! Just upgraded to 8.10 x86_64 and now pidgin hangs. Anyone knows what can be the problem?
[11:19] <rockyrock> pa1-cheru: sudo apt-get install wine
[11:19] <bazhang> frybye, for best results I would check wiki at www.eeeuser.com
[11:20] <whyking__> hi
[11:20] <whyking__> I just upgraded to intrepid but I can't get X working with dual monitors.. I was using nvidia drivers with twinview, but since nvidia drivers do not work with X I have to use nv, I reckon it does not support twinview so I would have to use xinerama, correct so far?
[11:20] <rockyrock> netyire: do you mean by thread, mirrors??
[11:20] <rbanffy> Hi folks. I am having trouble installing 8.10 from a USB stick. Installation aborts at 58% while copying files because some files are corrupted. The conventional USB stick making process seems not to work.
[11:21] <pa1-cheru> 10Q rocky rock
[11:21] <pa1-cheru> ive typrd ur command
[11:21] <pa1-cheru> its working
[11:21] <netyire> rockyrock: threads are the equivalent of chunks in internet download manager, mirrors are alternative servers that also host the file you want (but I didn't mention them ;))
[11:22] <rockyrock> netyire: what are chunks?
[11:22] <eoghan> Hi All, just upgraded to intrepid rfom hardy and have got a Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
[11:22] <eoghan> any ideas?
[11:23] <whyking__> eoghan, it does not work with the new X, you have to use nv instead
[11:23] <netyire> rockyrock: the program breaks up the file into various parts and downloads them concurrently in processes called threads, this allows the program to download faster by running multiple download procedures at one time
[11:23] <netyire> rockyrock: the parts are called chunks
[11:23] <eoghan> aah thanks whyking__
[11:23] <Don> can some one help me to get transparent windows ???
[11:24] <jrib> whyking__: works fine for me
[11:24] <whyking__> jrib, nvidia drivers?
[11:24] <whyking__> jrib, are you sure?
[11:24] <jrib> whyking__: yeah
[11:24] <netyire> Don: enable desktop effects and tweak the compiz settings methinks
[11:24] <eoghan> i also have dual monitors and the config app wont let me do anything other than mirror my screens which is quite annoying
[11:25] <pa1-cheru> rokyroky, wat shud i do after installing "wine"
[11:25] <reiki> Don, turn desktop effects on full and get the compiz-settings-manager
[11:25] <whyking__> jrib, well ok, it depends on which driver version you're using
[11:25] <whyking__> eoghan, I have the exact same problem
[11:25] <netyire> pa1-cheru: what game are you trying to run?
[11:25] <jrib> whyking__: maybe, I'm using 177
[11:25] <eoghan> i feel your pain whyking__
[11:26] <pa1-cheru> need for speed
[11:26] <whyking__> jrib, yeah, those are working
[11:26] <whyking__> but what am I using..
[11:26] <rockyrock> netyire: if the internet disconnected can axel continue the download after the internet back?
[11:26] <netyire> rockyrock: yup, download resuming is supported =-)
[11:26] <netyire> pa1-cheru: uh, which one? there are lots in the need for speed series?
[11:27] <pa1-cheru> nfs mostwanted
[11:28] <netyire> pa1-cheru: run the setup with wine, then download a crack

Linux still sees the windows partition, but the latter's recovery console doesn't. FIXMBR/FIXBOOT didn't help
[11:31] <reiki> Don, emerald-themes package apparently not in repos for intrepid yet.... looking......

[11:39] <dj_ivocha> rbanffy: how big is the stick and how much space is free on it? There are some noname and bootleg sticks that only have 2gb flash memory for example, but their controller thinks they have 4gb so everything over 2gb that you copy is lost
[11:39] <reiki> eoghan: how you getting to hardware drivers?
[11:39] <eoghan> reiki: system -> admin -> hardware drivers
[11:41] <Sertse> hi guys
[11:41] <reiki> eoghan: don't know why this made a difference for me, but go to add/remove -> All available -> search nvidia, then select Hardware drivers and nvidia X server settings.

[11:42] <reiki> eoghan, not sure on that one

[12:12] <oOarthurOo> Hi... I've got a Kubuntu 8.1 live cd, and a usb formatting according to the persistence wikipage, labelled casper-rw, and at boot I add the parameter -- persistent  .... but after installing firefox and rebooting my settings were saved.
[12:12] <bimmax> Soopa, you can use gparted

[12:13] <Soopa> bimmax: And it won't touch my data as long as the size of the partition is smaller than the space currently taken up?
[12:13] <bimmax> Babuto`, can you browse through maybe mozilla?
[12:13] <hardwired> 'llo
[12:14] <hardwired> "it won't touch my data"....
[12:14] <Babuto`> bimmax i have a problem with the xserver i cannot launch it
[12:14] <hardwired> never a good thing to say
[12:14] <Babuto`> so i'm stick with the terminal
[12:14] <bimmax> Soopa, exactly, I have done it a couple of times, but be careful
[12:14] <Soopa> hardwired: hehehe, I know... I'm in the process of backing everything up right now, just in case
[12:15] <Soopa> bimmax: Cool, thanks a lot
[12:15] <bimmax> Babuto`, did you uninstall and reinstall it?
[12:15] <daddy> Hello, I am using Satellite Pro 4600 and upgraded to Intrepid. My Prob is. I got continuisly unwanted chars while writinmg. I even cannot simply log in, cause it is hard to enter the password cause of these unwanted chars (eg sjf67zujhn). In 8.04 everything was fine. Also if I boot with init=/bin/bash i get this error. Anybody an Idea ?
[12:15] <Babuto`> bimmax but i think that it wouldn't work even with mozilla
[12:15] <hardwired> Soopa: heh, same here. I just removed my old disk drive to make sure nothing gets erased during the new install
[12:15] <kebomix> any body kan tell me how to get permission to edit on boot grub ?
[12:15] <bimmax> Babuto`, have you tried first?
[12:15] <Babuto`> i can't because i can't launch xserver
[12:16] <arezura> I installed ubuntu on my mbp laptop. The battery indicator always shows 0% . any way to fix this?
[12:16] <eoghan> reiki: i have returned
[12:17] <eoghan> fixed
[12:17] <bimmax> Babuto`, but atleast you can get to the terminal where you do this or use ctrl+alt+F1 and uninstall it from there
[12:17] <hardwired> kind of off-topic: i got an s-ata disk. do I have to connect two cables? data and power?
[12:17] <hardwired> i'm asking because I have this s-ata to ide converter, I dunno if I have all the cables.
[12:17] <hardwired> and I never used an sata drive so far
[12:18] <reiki> eoghan, how'd it go?
[12:18] <bimmax> hardwired, how does it get powered and how will be the data read if you do not do it?
[12:18] <eoghan> i had to install envyng

[12:18] <Babuto`> bimmax if i try to uninstall xserver, it says that 400mo disk space will be freed
[12:18] <Finnish> Whats the package to control compiz?
[12:18] <hardwired> bimmax: data and power could go over the same cable, you know
[12:18] <eoghan> got it to install latest nvidia drivers and here i am to tell the tale
[12:18] <bimmax> Babuto`, that's okay
[12:19] <reiki> Finnish I think it's compiz-settings-manager .... do an aptitude search compiz and you'll see it
[12:19] <daddy> why do i get these chars while typing ? 67zujhnm
[12:19] <hardwired> bimmax: I got only a data cable delivered, and so I wonder if a data cable is all I need
