[07:56] <variant> !beryl | nuked_omen
[07:56] <Fezzler> any samba gurus on call?
[07:56] <Lilacor> Invertigo: remove all FUSE-related files
[07:56] <Ali_ix> zain: you can install "GL-Desktop" package via synaptic which give your more control over compiz
[07:56] <Poseidonnn> s koe
[07:56] <tomek_> !
[07:56] <Lilacor> Invertigo: remove libntfs3g also
[07:56] <ubotu> nuked_omen: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:56] <Lilacor> Invertigo: then reinstall
[07:56] <tomek_> din'nt know that one - will check
[07:57] <zain> how do i get GL-Desktop
[07:57] <Invertigo> Lilacor : This is my 2nd reinstall today, newest packages available
[07:57] <rshadow> is there anything special I need to do to install Ubuntu on a raid / sata setup?
[07:57] <Ali_ix> zain: search compiz in synaptic
[07:57] <Lilacor> rshadow: look up HOWTO RAID for linux
[07:57] <Lilacor> rshadow: there's plenty of resources on it
[07:58] <Lilacor> rshadow: also LVM2 is highly useful for RAID bunches
[07:58] <Invertigo> Im running NTFS3G V. 1.417
[07:58] <rshadow> Lilacor: thanks
[07:58] <Lilacor> Invertigo: is that the latest version?
[07:58] <Invertigo> yupz
[07:58] <Invertigo> and the newest version of Fuse as well
[07:58] <tomek_> don't have the "gl-desktop" in my synaptic - but i do have  "compiz-extra" package ?? WILL IT OD ? ;)
[07:58] <arnotixe_> hi. is there a special channel for synaptic or other package managers? I'd like to force a previous version of wine.
[07:59] <Lilacor> Invertigo: so when you try to mount a volume you get that error?
[07:59] <tomek_> don't have the "gl-desktop" in my synaptic - but i do have  "compiz-extra" package ?? WILL IT OD ? ;)
[07:59] <MasseR> http://pastebin.ca/497154 for anyone who wants to look at my problem :)
[07:59] <Ali_ix> arnotixe_: you should try APT or dpkg
[07:59] <ebel> I think my battery went dead while in suspend. Now nautilus won't start, it complains about bonobo-activation-server. However that's no running so I can't kill it/restart it. Any advice?
[07:59] <Invertigo> Lilacor: Its mounted right now, i can acces and write the NTFS files, Im trying to mount it in samba to allow windows sharing
[07:59] <Lilacor> MasseR: did you look up your printer model under the forums?
[07:59] <Invertigo> this worked before on Edgy Eft, but after a full reinstall and upgrade it doesnt work anymore
[07:59] <MasseR> Lilacor: No luck
[08:00] <Lilacor> Invertigo: so why the heck are you trying to mount the volume TWICE?!
[08:00] <Fezzler> smb, samba, networking issues.  Anyone knowledgable?
[08:00] <Lilacor> Invertigo: I see the problem...I think you're confused about how samba works.
[08:01] <Invertigo> its NTFS,
[08:01] <Invertigo> my box has to be able to write to it... but it also needs to be available through the network
[08:01] <Lilacor> Invertigo: you only need to mount a volume *once*
[08:01] <Fezzler> Lilacor: knowledgable about samba?
[08:01] <linux_kid> How do I install packages on a PC with no net connection (dependencies take forever to download individually)

[08:02] <Lilacor> Fezzler: not a lot but enough to know you're not supposed to try to mount an ntfs-3g volume twice
[08:02] <Fezzler> I installed samba last night and got it running with my Vista HP and iMacG5.  Now just need to tips to fine tune
[08:02] <Invertigo> How to I "mount" it in samba then? when i check my ubuntu box from a windows puter it only allows me to access "printers"
[08:02] <arnotixe_> yep. and in apt-get, how can I show the versions available to choose from?
[08:02] <Lilacor> tomek_: use XFS

[08:04] <Lilacor> Fezzler: I wish I knew more about samba.
[08:04] <Ali_ix> linux_kid: u will get package url list (with dependency list) once you get downloaded them on another pc, you may copy packages to /var/cache/apt/archives and run synaptic again, it will find downloaded packages and install in curerct order

[08:05] <Lilacor> \x6e\x65\x72\x64: I've never had that issue. *ever*
[08:05] <sid> On the ubuntu installer, the partitioner won't get past 46%, how can I fix this?
[08:05] <tomek_> and what bout ReiserFS  (most admins say : "ONLY Ext3")  - i know that Reiser is little faster with smaller files - but when a crash comes (lack of electricity) i could not get up  - how about XFS with that ??
[08:05] <AaronMT> When I resume from standby I can not connect to my wireless internet again. It attempts to connect and fails immediately. How can I resolve this? I am using ndiswrapper

[08:05] <Lilacor> dru: I'm not sure what you're trying to do
[08:06] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Lilacor: I guess it's because it does metadata journaling but not data journaling, so the FS is intact after the wrong crash but your data is not
[08:06] <Lilacor> \x6e\x65\x72\x64: I don't know the gory details. I just know that it WFM.
[08:06] <tomek_> think i will go on XFS  -  if U recomend it :)
[08:06] <Erealz> should I just reinstall?
[08:06] <dru> lilacor: im lookig around on gnome look and i found a splash screen i like ... :) dont know what that is ... but in the description it says Append this to your menu.lst or grub.conf:

[08:22] <ber1> my mouse spontaneously freezes i'll wave it in circles and once about every 3 seconds it will just stop registering for half a second and then pick back up... i have no idea why. it is wireless, but so is my keyboard and neither have done this sort of thing before. i've checked my connections and moved the receptor to a better spot but its still acting up. anyone have any ideas why?
[08:23] <unnutz> Hansel, as I remember you can apt-get vmware-server
[08:23] <Lilacor> FFForever: comment everything out but the loopback stuff and then use network manager to configure your static interface
[08:23] <dru> im downloading vmware right now
[08:23] <jura> erursul: tried with totem and vlc
[08:23] <dru> i just searched vm in synaptic ... downloading everything it found ... lol
[08:23] <dru> vmware**
[08:23] <DuckFart> ber1: check that the optic pickup underneath the mouse is clean. even a hair can interfere with tracking
[08:23] <Lilacor> dru: if you want to use your zune in the same way windows does...I don't think there's any software for that
[08:24] <Boshi> root@boshi-desktop:~# apt-get autoremove libsdl-mixer1.
[08:24] <Boshi> Reading package lists... Done
[08:24] <Boshi> Building dependency tree
[08:24] <Boshi> Reading state information... Done
[08:24] <Boshi> E: Couldn't find package libsdl-mixer1.
[08:24] <Ali_ix> FFForever: you may comment out "auto xxx" line for interfaces
[08:24] <gokhan_> slm
[08:24] <Ali_ix> FFForever: check some refrences to get sure
[08:24] <gokhan_> hi everybody
[08:24] <FFForever> i want them to start up though
[08:24] <Ali_ix> !paste | Boshi
[08:24] <ubotu> Boshi: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:24] <dru> well i just want my music and shit off the zune and onto my pc .. so i can listen to it
[08:24] <FFForever> just not get dhcp
[08:24] <Erealz> hello
[08:24] <Lilacor> dru:  but if it's a ntfs volume or even a FAT volume, you should be able to just mount it and copy/delete whatever you need to and from the zune as just another HDD
[08:24] <unnutz> Hansel, by the way, I can recommend you http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_fawn_vmware_server_howto  This way without using apt-get however
[08:24] <Ali_ix> !interfaces
[08:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about interfaces - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:24] <ber1> duckfart: ha, oddly enough, there was a hair. but i took it out and cleaned the rest of the scanner and its still acting funny but its like a periodic freezing, not just random. any other ideas?
[08:24] <Lilacor> FFForever: yes so go into network manager and statically configure your interface(s)
[08:25] <dru> linux doesnt recognize the usb zune
[08:25] <dru> how would i find it?
[08:25] <Boshi> Ali_ix:  aah sorry
[08:25] <Erealz> those anyone know of a way to restart gnome back to it defoults settings like first boot status to illustrate ...
[08:25] <Lilacor> dru: it'll recognize it
[08:25] <FFForever> Lilacor, i am on a laptop so there is no static lol
[08:25] <nikotyna> Erealz: rm -r .gnome*
[08:25] <dru> it doesnt ....
[08:25] <sid> When I click next on step 3 for of the ubiquity install on the livecd, it doesn't get to step 4. It says it's "Starting up the partioner" but it doesn't get past 46% on this step. What can I do?
[08:25] <Erealz> ty
[08:25] <Lilacor> FFForever: I'm telling you to configure it statically
[08:26] <Lilacor> dru: what does lsusb tell you?
[08:26] <DuckFart> ber1: sorry, beyond that i can't help you.
[08:26] <Lilacor> dru: or lsusb -vv tell you?
[08:26] <DuckFart> the only problem i ever had was with dust collecting on the optics

[08:26] <Lilacor> dru: why do you keep pasting in the channel?
[08:27] <dru> im sorry
[08:27] <dru> lol
[08:27] <Lilacor> dru: try lsusb -vv and check for the device
[08:27] <dru> how d i find it?
[08:28] <dru> i mean
[08:28] <dru> i dont know what its called
[08:28] <sid> Are there other ways to install ubuntu besides the ubiquity installer?
[08:28] <Lilacor> sid: go to a console install and use the console partition tool
[08:28] <Lilacor> dru: do you know what hardware the zune uses?
[08:28] <dru> nope
[08:28] <dru> never thought about it
[08:29] <silverblade> i installed php-cgi, how do i enable mysql support?
[08:29] <Lilacor> dru: does your zune even POST when it's plugged into the usb port?
[08:29] <dru> nope
[08:29] <dru> i just did it
[08:29] <sid> Lilacor: What is the console partition tool?
[08:29] <jura> erURSUL: Tried with Totem and VLC, both crashes and i have intel Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express graphics with 224MB shared memory
[08:29] <dru> unplugged .. and plugged
[08:29] <Lilacor> sid: fdisk
[08:29] <unnutz> !php5-mysql
[08:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about php5-mysql - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:29] <unnutz> !php mysql
[08:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about php mysql - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:30] <sid> Lilacor: I made a partition, I need Ubuntu on it now.
[08:30] <naaronbo> Repositories for  w32codes please...
[08:30] <Lilacor> dru: something is funky with your usb ports or something then
[08:30] <sid> Lilacor: I already used fdisk, but how do I proceed with the install from here?
[08:30] <Ali_ix> !info php5-mysql | unnutz
[08:30] <ubotu> unnutz: php5-mysql: MySQL module for php5. In component main, is optional. Version 5.2.1-0ubuntu1.1 (feisty), package size 63 kB, installed size 240 kB
[08:30] <dru> not really
[08:30] <dru> they worked fine the other day
[08:30] <rollerskatejamms> Anybody know where SoundKonverter saves ripped songs?
[08:30] <FFForever> why not have ubotu notice them the info?
[08:30] <dru> and all my other stuff is working .. like wireless mouse and keyboard
[08:30] <rjg_> hey guys
[08:30] <wam> hi
[08:31] <silverblade> ive apt-get'ed php5-mysql, to no avail.
[08:31] <silverblade> it installed... but thats about all it did
[08:31] <FFForever> silverblade, you could try xampp :D
[08:31] <Lilacor> dru: find out what hw is inside of the zune, and then look for it underneath lsusb -vv
[08:31] <Lilacor> sid: sorry, I'm not sure.
[08:31] <silverblade> FFForever: whats that?
[08:31] <dru> then what do i do?
[08:32] <Lilacor> FFForever: if you're telling me that since you're on a laptop you cannot configure your connection statically, I'm going to have to just say that I'm 100% that your computer is hosed or you're just plain confused.
[08:32] <FFForever> silverblade, it is apche, mysql, php, etc all in one
[08:32] <silverblade> FFForever: ah, i thought that was LAMP.
[08:32] <silverblade> in any case im using lighttpd and have mysql set up but thanks
[08:33] <FFForever> Lilacor, i am always on the go, do there is no reason to tell it to preset the connection info
[08:33] <Lilacor> datrigg: I use workstation and I can share files between host and guest OS very easily
[08:33] <BrianG> !uuid
[08:33] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[08:33] <wile_e8> ever since upgrading to feisty, my computer pauses for a couple minutes on startup after I log in and before it gets all my startup programs going.  Why would this happen?
[08:33] <sid> Anyone know an alternative to ubiquity for installing Ubuntu from the livecd?
[08:34] <Lilacor> FFForever: edit your /etc/network/interfaces file and make sure there's nothing in terms of 'eth<x> auto' then
[08:34] <wam> what do you wanna do exactly sid?
[08:34] <Lilacor> FFForever: then you'll have to manually bring your interfaces up and down
[08:34] <silverblade> hmm ok php's cli interface sees that i have mysql, but the cgi version doesnt
[08:34] <sid> wam: I just want to install Ubuntu. but the ubiquity installer is freezing at step 4
[08:34] <sid> When I click next on step 3 for of the ubiquity install on the livecd, it doesn't get to step 4. It says it's "Starting up the partioner" but it doesn't get past 46% on this step. What can I do?
[08:34] <wam> use the alternate CD
[08:34] <rollerskatejamms> Nobody knows where soundkonverter saves files?'
[08:34] <Lilacor> sid: use the alternate CD
[08:34] <sid> "May 19 18:14:54 ubiquity: Watching for question patterns ^partman-auto/.*automatically_partition$, ^partman-auto/select_disk$, ^partman-partitioning/confirm_resize$, ^partman-partitioning/new_size$, ^partman/choose_partition$, ^partman/confirm.*, type:boolean, ERROR, PROGRESS" is what it says in the terminal
[08:35] <BENN92647> finally
[08:35] <sid> I don't have the alternative cd.
[08:35] <Lilacor> sid: burn it and install it
[08:35] <wam> download it
[08:35] <root___> hello can someone help me please...once i login in gnome, multiple gnome-screenshot applications start running until the system crashes...plus now that i am using issi.irc, \\\\\\\ these start being written on their own...anyone??
[08:35] <sid> And I can't download it since I don't have a system. :(
[08:35] <dru> hey if i run the disc of photoshop
[08:35] <Lilacor> sid: find a way. we believe in you
[08:35] <sid> My only system is this livecd.

[08:38] <ubotu> regjava: please see above
[08:38] <Lilacor> dru: if the zune REQURES you to use usb1.1...that's one messed up usb controller chip it's got there
[08:38] <stephy> thank you
[08:38] <regjava> ty Kyral_Laptop
[08:38] <root___> ok another question as no one can help me...does anyone know why when i go to save something on a usb stick or a floppy, it tells me that it is copied but when i try it is has not been copied???
[08:38] <DuckFart> root___ : ok. just thought I'd try the simple solution first, There could be an some form of incompatibility with special keys on your laptop,
[08:38] <BENN92647> can someone please help with ubuntu edgy my sound hardly ever worked, but it worked sometimes.  Now with fiesty I can't get it to work at all..please
[08:38] <dru> i tought it was saying that it requires 2.0
[08:38] <sid> Is the alternative cd the same as server edition?
[08:38] <dru> and i need to install the module from the linux kernal
[08:39] <root___> DuckFart: this suddently happened yesterday for no reason..until then it was fine
[08:39] <shirish> cypher1: I have done that but still doesn't show up as green at  http://www.utorrent.com/testport.php?port=x (port no.)
[08:39] <wam> sid:no
[08:39] <Lilacor> BENN92647: first look at dmesg, then /var/log/messages, then lshw...then lspci -vv regarding your sound card...find as much info about the chipset as possible and then look further in the forums
[08:39] <ge2x> hey does ubuntu 7.04 have aiglx enabled by default?
[08:39] <wam> desktop!=alternate!=server
[08:39] <root___> DuckFart: i am in no mood to sit an reformat the system...it will take ages to set it up again
[08:39] <sid> wam: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[08:39] <sid> I don't see alternative listed.
[08:39] <regjava> what is kubuntu?
[08:39] <cypher1> shirish, are you using ipchains or anything similar ?
[08:39] <Lilacor> regjava: it's ubuntu + KDE
[08:40] <BENN92647> lilacor:what is dmesg
[08:40] <strabes> regjava: ubuntu with KDE instead of gnome
[08:40] <datrigg> regjava: alternative session manager
[08:40] <shirish> cypher1: what is ipchains?
[08:40] <DuckFart> root___ : i'm just trying to think what else it could be. It's certainly an odd problem!
[08:40] <Lilacor> BENN92647: it's your kernel messages
[08:40] <shirish> cypher1: how can I find out if I'm using ipchains or not?
[08:40] <strabes> sid: you have to check the box below "start download"
[08:40] <ge2x> hey does ubuntu 7.04 have aiglx enabled by default?
[08:40] <BENN92647> lilacor: how do i get it to show
[08:40] <Lilacor> shirish: it's a networking tool built into the kernel
[08:40] <sid> I think I have enough RAM to download the cd and keep it in RAM via the livecd, then burn it
[08:40] <Lilacor> BENN92647: type it in
[08:40] <strabes> ge2x: no but it and compiz are installed by default
[08:41] <root___> DuckFart: i will try removing gnome-screensaver completely to see if it will work
[08:41] <shirish> Lilacor: so what I need to do with this ipchains stuff? Something needs to be done there or what?
[08:41] <root___> DuckFart: thanx though
[08:41] <purpzey> I am having trouble adjusting the sensitivity of my touchpad pad using Gnome, it appears to me that it, Gnome is actually changing the settings on the small "scroll bar" side of the touchpad
[08:41] <regjava> Will ubuntu fiesty fawn automatically configure my adsl connection
[08:41] <shirish> Lilacor: cypher1: so what I need to do with this ipchains stuff? Something needs to be done there or what?
[08:41] <wam> sid: check the box at the box "Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer." at the botton of the page
[08:41] <Xyhthyx> I had installed Glade v3.2.0 from the repos, now I compiled and installed Glade v3.2.1, removing the 3.2.0 package I assume will also remove the 3.2.1 binaries I installed, right?
[08:41] <regjava> during installation
[08:41] <Lilacor> shirish: oh..you're using bittorrent right?
[08:41] <DuckFart> root___ : ok, but what would gnome-screensaver have to do with it?
[08:41] <root___> DuckFart: in relation to why i cannot always write on my usb stick or floppy when it says it has done so??any ideas there?
[08:42] <Lilacor> shirish: hmmmm....welp. go look up the manual for iptables
[08:42] <cypher1> shirish, you can check the output of "netstat -an | grep <port>"
[08:42] <root___> DuckFart: well that is what is running all the time..so it might have a bug or something
[08:42] <cypher1> shirish, it will give details of its states
[08:42] <root___> DuckFart: i dont know why \\\\ happens though
[08:42] <alexIdoia> hi there is there a live cd download please, it looks like my HD is dead
[08:42] <cypher1> shirish, you can paste it if you want us to have a look
[08:42] <DuckFart> root___: there's a delay in writing to usb sticks. wait a while before removing it.
[08:42] <purpzey> alex: ubuntu.com
[08:42] <shirish> cypher1: ok cool
[08:43] <root___> DuckFart: ok
[08:43] <rNIUS> :), hi all!
[08:43] <purpzey> How do I adjust my touchpad settings? Any adjustment I make through the GUI in Gnome seems to have no effect.
[08:43] <Lilacor> purpzey: edit your xorg.conf file
[08:43] <shirish> cypher1: lol, don't know how but that command just opened up that port, now refreshing utorrent port checker shows the port as green
[08:44] <purpzey> Lilacor: Will the thing to edit be obvious?
[08:44] <Lilacor> purpzey: maybe not
[08:44] <dru> lilacor: whats crossover?
[08:44] <cypher1> shirish, that command does not do anything
[08:44] <alexIdoia> hi there is there a live cd download please, it looks like my HD is dead
[08:44] <grogoreo> hi
[08:44] <Lilacor> dru: I don't know. if you're talking about a crossover cable I could tell you what that is
[08:44] <purpzey> lilacor: Any idea how I might identify it, or find out what variable it might be?
[08:44] <unnutz> dru, commercial software which allows running windows software like MS Office and others
[08:44] <purpzey> alexIdoia: Get it from ubuntu.com All the CDs are LiveCDs.

[08:45] <grogoreo> could someone tell me the extension for firefox which lets you make FF appear to web sites as IE or other browsers?
[08:45] <shirish> cypher1: I have no idea but now utorrent port checker shows things as green
[08:45] <dru> supposedly it will install any program on linux
[08:45] <cypher1> shirish, it just outputs that states of the endpoints..
[08:45] <cypher1> shirish, ok great.. enjoy then
[08:45] <shirish> cypher1: also the speeds are cool
[08:45] <shirish> cypher1: thanks
[08:45] <DuckFart> root___ : i can't see any particular reason why gnome-screensaver is causing problems with your print-screen and \\\\\\ problem, the only thing I can think of at the moment is to select a different keyboard layout from System -> Preferences and then changing it back. It might reset keyboard problems

[08:49] <ismailmf> using nvidia
[08:49] <patrick_> bruenig: that is right
[08:49] <patrick_> bruenig: but where is the script?
[08:50] <ismailmf> warm: would that fix the resume?
[08:50] <bruenig> patrick_, did you write that script or what?
[08:50] <patrick_> is there a script on the 64bit cd
[08:50] <melsu> The problem is as follows: When im trying to play any video, the player crashes and im getting "Bad alloc" error, im using ubuntu feisty fawn and i have mobile Intel GMA 950 chipset with integrated graphics controller, with shared memory. I googled around and found out, that i must configure the xorg.conf file, but nothing more. any ideas?
[08:50] <patrick_> bruenig: I want to use the script to upgrade my system
[08:50] <oldude67> how do i install a tar. file?
[08:50] <alexIdoia> Supaplex: I am at http://live.debian.net/ I can't find the iso image for the CD
[08:50] <xerebz> how do i set up a file transfer between an ubuntu comp and a windows xp pro comp?
[08:50] <bruenig> patrick_, how do you know you have it at all?
[08:50] <unnutz> patrick_, /media/cdrom/cdromupgrade?
[08:50] <xerebz> using ethernet cables and whatnot
[08:50] <wam> ismailmf: it fixed it for me, now, I hibernate typing sudo s2disk
[08:51] <purpzey> where is xorg.conf located?
[08:51] <wam> ismailmf: it's just an other way to hiberbate
[08:51] <bruenig> oldude67, a tar file is simply compressed files. You need to extract it "tar xf whatever.tar.*" and then look for README or INSTALL
[08:51] <Lilacor> purpzey: /etc/X11/
[08:51] <unnutz> purpzey, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:51] <linux_kid> What pcmcia card works out-of-the-box in Ubuntu 6.06 ???
[08:52] <wam> what a question...
[08:52] <ismailmf> thanks wam
[08:52] <patrick_> ls|grep cdrom
[08:52] <wam> wireless?
[08:52] <patrick_> there is no upgrade file
[08:52] <netwkrtot> Hey, can anyone tell me where is the bitchx configuration file that holds default servers etc?
[08:52] <linux_kid> wam, yes
[08:52] <wam> I had a D-Link that worked out of the box
[08:52] <Frogzoo> !hardware | linux_kid
[08:52] <ubotu> linux_kid: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[08:52] <linux_kid> wam, model number
[08:52] <patrick_> bruenig: and now?
[08:53] <netwkrtot> I'm assuming that there is a file so if u just run "bitchx" it pulls the default bitchx server from that file
[08:53] <unnutz> netwkrtot, check out ~/.bitchx directory, may be there
[08:53] <patrick_> bruenig: I searched two times in the whole cd
[08:53] <random-baby> how can i tell what arcitecture my pc uses?
[08:53] <patrick_> there is nowhere any cdromupgrade file
[08:53] <Frogzoo> random-baby: lshw
[08:53] <wam> DWL-610
[08:53] <melsu> Hey!. The problem is as follows: When im trying to play any video, the player crashes and im getting "Bad alloc" error, im using ubuntu feisty fawn and i have mobile Intel GMA 950 chipset with integrated graphics controller, with shared memory. I googled around and found out, that i must configure the xorg.conf file, but there was nothing about GMA 950. Can anyone help me please?
[08:53] <linux_manju> Hi All
[08:53] <linux_kid> wam, how much was it?
[08:53] <random-baby> thanks
[08:53] <xerebz> how do i set up a file transfer between an ubuntu comp and a windows xp pro comp? aka make a network
[08:53] <bruenig> patrick_, do sudo updatedb && sudo locate cdrom
[08:54] <IdleOne> !samba | xerebz
[08:54] <linux_manju> Why on the earth scp -rp somefile root@ubuntu:/    changes permission to root:root
[08:54] <ubotu> xerebz: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:54] <unnutz> xerebz, samba?
[08:54] <linux_manju> instead of preserveing it
[08:54] <wam> hum, it's an old one now, i don't really remember, probably about 40
[08:54] <Fyb3r> hey all
[08:54] <Fyb3r> i need some help
[08:54] <IdleOne> !ask
[08:54] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:54] <patrick_> bruenig: nothing
[08:54] <Fyb3r> i have ubuntu 6.06
[08:55] <mjr> linux_manju, it just does. Use rsync for any serious file transfer needs.
[08:55] <Fyb3r> trying to install on my new 500gb sata
[08:55] <linux_kid> wam, thank you
[08:55] <bruenig> patrick_, sudo find / -iname cdrom
[08:55] <Fyb3r> keeps freezing up
[08:55] <bruenig> patrick_, sudo find / -iname *cdrom*
[08:55] <ismailmf> ok another question i installed ubuntu feisty on my friends notebook he is using an intel graphics card. how do i enable 3d acceleration
[08:55] <linux_manju> mjr: Well It is NOT supposed to work that way... And it happens in rsync aswell
[08:55] <Fyb3r> when i choose entire disk or anything for that matter
[08:55] <wam> google pcmcia wireless linux, you should find more updated informations
[08:55] <linux_manju> mjr: -rp means recursive and preserve
[08:56] <linux_manju> mjr: Both are part of the same NIS
[08:56] <patrick_> bruenig: sorry
[08:56] <Fyb3r> hello?
[08:56] <mjr> linux_manju, it is supposed to work that way, ref. man scp. As for rsync, -og, ref. man rsync.
[08:56] <oldude67> bruenig: is that the same for a bz2 file?
[08:56] <xerebz> so i just set up a home network on my windows and configure samba on ubuntu?
[08:56] <patrick_> bruenig: hmm
[08:56] <netwkrtot> unnutz: I've tried but hm... i'm seeing directories with "." maybe? ... i'm not seeing any files in there
[08:56] <bruenig> oldude67, yes
[08:56] <random-baby> how can i check if i have both cores working?
[08:56] <Fyb3r> did anyone see my message
[08:56] <linux_manju> mjr: Ah.. Lemme check again
[08:57] <linux_manju> :P
[08:57] <patrick_> random-baby: htop
[08:57] <random-baby> thanks
[08:57] <Fyb3r> HELLOOOO!!!!!!!
[08:57] <mjr> (-a implies -og among other things)
[08:57] <unnutz> netwkrtot, well, I have no linux at the moment, so can't help :-)
[08:57] <oldude67> ok lets try this different...whats a good way to connect a motorola phone to ubuntu?
[08:57] <Fyb3r> guys!!!!
[08:58] <wam> oldude67: bluetooth?

[08:58] <Fyb3r> i need help i cant get ubuntu to install on my 500gb sata
[08:58] <Ali_ix> !repeat | Fyb3r
[08:58] <ubotu> Fyb3r: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[08:58] <oldude67> wam:computer sees phone, phone dont see computer
[08:58] <Cobra_Fast> hello
[08:58] <Fyb3r> ugh u guys are worthless
[08:58] <Cobra_Fast> hello
[08:59] <ismailmf> ok another question i installed ubuntu feisty on my friends notebook he is using an intel graphics card. how do i enable 3d acceleration
[08:59] <oldude67> wam: and im a newbie
[08:59] <Cobra_Fast> i have some very big problem - please query
[08:59] <linux_manju> mjr: Whew man.. thanks
[08:59] <linux_manju> mjr: It works great
[08:59] <Ali_ix> !ask | Cobra_Fast
[08:59] <ubotu> Cobra_Fast: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:59] <linux_manju> mjr: used -zvprog
[08:59] <linux_manju> mjr: Thanks alot
[09:00] <Cobra_Fast> my X doesnt start after a hardware-change. i changed: motherboard, cpu and now using a graphics-card instead of a chipset... what can i do?
[09:00] <mjr> linux_manju, sure; usually -a will do most of what you want in those situations
[09:00] <Cobra_Fast> please help
[09:00] <ismailmf> ow i know that one
[09:00] <Frogzoo> Cobra_Fast: you'll need to install a driver for the new vid card
[09:00] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: yo need to reconfig xorg, try dpkg-reconfigure command
[09:00] <linux_manju> mjr: Ah.. Thanks again.. Need to revisit the man page I guess :P
[09:01] <Cobra_Fast> apt-get install fglrx does not work
[09:01] <Cobra_Fast> its a ATI card
[09:01] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: what is your VGA mark.model?
[09:01] <iMilad> I am using Ubuntu 7.10 and I have a laptop with Windows XP installed on it. I share files between these two computers using a shared folder with samba in Ubuntu and my wireless connection on my laptop. is there anyway to share my printer too? i mean using the wireless connection
[09:01] <ismailmf> you have to put sudo first
[09:01] <Ali_ix> !fglrx | Cobra_Fast
[09:01] <ubotu> Cobra_Fast: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:01] <random-baby> patrick ive never used htop before and it looks abit complex, could u tell how i would know if both cores are working please
[09:01] <naaronbo> hi, i have this error playing a movie wmv
[09:01] <naaronbo> Decodificador video/x-asf-unknown
[09:01] <naaronbo> Decodificador Windows Media Speech
[09:01] <Cobra_Fast> well, i cant view this page without any browser
[09:01] <Ali_ix> !paste naaronbo
[09:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about paste naaronbo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:02] <Ali_ix> !paste | naaronbo
[09:02] <ubotu> naaronbo: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:02] <naaronbo> I have intaled w32codes...
[09:02] <ismailmf> there is a way to use the generic video driver
[09:02] <drivera90> I need a little help with Wine troubleshooting. Can I ask here?
[09:02] <Strolchi> hallchen zusammen
[09:02] <larson9999> i don't know what's the deal but it's been a solid month now that ff isn't stable for me on any of my *buntu machines.  i've done everything i've seen on the net that claims to address ff stabilities in ubuntu but nothing helps.  since i watch a lot of flash it's probably flash related.  maybe i'll see how opera does.  maybe that'll tell me if it's flash
[09:02] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: are you familiar with xorg.conf file?
[09:02] <ismailmf> to activate the x
[09:02] <Cobra_Fast> no im not
[09:02] <zaggynl> drivera90, asking isn't forbidden, for really wine specific issues, try #winehq
[09:03] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: ismailmf id right, you should set driver to mesa/vesa and startx
[09:03] <naaronbo> sorry for paste
[09:03] <Ali_ix> *is
[09:03] <Cobra_Fast> just have to load/install fglrx, but where can i get it?
[09:03] <Ali_ix> naaronbo: np
[09:03] <Figaro> hi
[09:03] <Cobra_Fast> anybody abled to tell me the package name?
[09:03] <ismailmf> whats the problem larson9999
[09:03] <nikotyna> Cobra_Fast: apt-cache serach fglrx
[09:03] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: you need to edit sources.list file and uncomment universe repository
[09:03] <Pelo> Cobra_Fast,  do a search in synaptic for fglrx
[09:03] <purpzey> How can I make sure that the device I want to change the settings on is in fact the device I am changing the settings on....This FAQ reads, "if that doesn't work look for the device..." It is an Alps touchpad...Also, "mouse" is set as "CorePointer" whereas Synaptics is set as "SendCoreEvents" could this be related?
[09:03] <Figaro> i have just installed ubuntu on my ipod the only problem is i dont know how to boot on it now
[09:04] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: then do "apt-get update && apt-get install fglrx"
[09:04] <larson9999> ismailmf: after a time, ff just locks up.  the only way i've been able to shut it down is killing the process
[09:04] <Cobra_Fast> Ali_ix how can i switch to second virtual-shell in system-terminal mode?
[09:04] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: CTRL+F1-6
[09:05] <Pelo> Figaro, check the forum, there is probably something in there on that peculiar problem
[09:05] <Figaro> oki thx
[09:05] <ismailmf> thats a common problem with 7.04
[09:05] <ismailmf> happens to me too
[09:05] <Cobra_Fast> well doesnt work brb
[09:05] <Trickser> hi, my partition table was completely damaged after hibernation. There are no partitions visible at all, any suggesteions?
[09:05] <ismailmf> opera isnt as buggy
[09:05] <Pelo> Trickser, did you reboot ?
[09:06] <purpzey> Would changing the parameter on a touchpad from "SendCoreEvents" "True" to "CorePointer" change the affect of GUI settings on that device?
[09:06] <ismailmf> Trickser do a check disk
[09:06] <regjava> can we hibernate in ubuntu :-o?
[09:06] <USMarine> regjava ofc
[09:06] <larson9999> ismailmf: so i've found out.  happens on xubuntu, kubuntu, and ubuntu. all on different machines.  i've followed about half a dozen forums that say they help but none have.
[09:06] <regjava> cool
[09:06] <USMarine> suspend to ram
[09:06] <Trickser> Pelo: I put the laptop to hibernate, then I turn it on an there was no bootable sector
[09:06] <Pelo> regjava,  suspend / hibernate in linux is hopefull at best
[09:06] <ismailmf> regjava i just asked that
[09:06] <Trickser> Pelo: so, I used a live cd and there are no partitions :-(
[09:06] <regjava> but hope it dosent mess up my partition table
[09:07] <Trickser> Pelo: a check disk is not helpful, since I don't have partitions any more
[09:07] <ismailmf> yes i think they are still finding the problem
[09:07] <ismailmf> maybe in a week or so
[09:07] <Pelo> Trickser,  I donT' thnk that problem could be caused by hibernation,  well I doubt it ,
[09:07] <ismailmf> it was alot worst in beta
[09:07] <Pelo> Trickser, I'm betting that your hdd is damaged
[09:07] <Trickser> Pelo: i didn't do anything more
[09:08] <Trickser> Pelo: the hdd is almost new
[09:08] <Trickser> Pelo: but how can i check it?
[09:08] <Pelo> Trickser,  I'm not saying it is your fault,  but I donT think hibernate is the cause,  almost new hdd can have problems,  that's why there are warranties
[09:08] <larson9999> ismailmf: so is if flash or ff?
[09:08] <macabro22> brb
[09:08] <Pelo> Trickser,  I realy donT, know ,  get into the bios and make sure the hdd is found by the bios
[09:09] <Pelo> Trickser,  and correctly identified
[09:09] <Trickser> the hdd is found, but there are no partitions
[09:09] <Trickser> gparted also see the hard disk
[09:10] <ismailmf> Trickse try e2fsck or badblocks command
[09:10] <ismailmf> to check your hard disk
[09:10] <larson9999> hibernate works on 2 of 4 of my machines
[09:10] <Pelo> Trickser,  I don't know if it is possible to restore the partition table without resetting the partitons,   do you have important data on that computer ?
[09:10] <dredhammer> hello is there anyway to replace the network manager applet with whatever was used in Edgy? I am connected to a wired network yet every few minutes I experience system slow downs because the applet gives errors
[09:10] <gluttony> my swap drive is not showing up. and when i ran the live cd to make a new swap, it said i already had a swap. what do i do?
[09:10] <doodoo> hello
[09:10] <purpzey> How can I verify that specific device is the one I want to change settings on e.g. /dev/input/mouse0, might be different than mouse1?
[09:10] <Trickser> well, i think not so important, but important anyway
[09:10] <vikzx86> I have a python 2.4 dependency error in Automatrix2. Can someone help me?
[09:11] <KakaRoT-|> gluttony: swapon /dev/swap-partition
[09:11] <doodoo> what s the best client in order to download on newsgroup??
[09:11] <Rab22> after you use fdisk to whip away some partitions, does anyone know how to get the kernel to see the new ones?
[09:11] <Rab22> or do you have to restart?
[09:11] <dredhammer> doodoo pan newsreader http://pan.rebelbase.com/
[09:11] <Pelo> gluttony, check all the hdd in your computer , use gparted,  if you have one you'll see it ,  it's usualy a linux-swap partiton,  nested inside an extended partition,  but it may be using another one if a some other suitable partition was available
[09:12] <ismailmf> lsmod?
[09:12] <gluttony> Pelo: cannot stat /dev/swap-partition: No such file or directory
[09:12] <dredhammer> hello is there anyway to replace the network manager applet with whatever was used in Edgy? I am connected to a wired network yet every few minutes I experience system slow downs because the applet gives errors
[09:12] <KakaRoT-|> purpzey: try with cat /dev/input/mouse-number if the device exists it returns some caracter
[09:12] <Pelo> gluttony,  are you running gui ?
[09:12] <doodoo> dredhammer> thank you, i have some problem with klibido...
[09:12] <monaleilani> Hi, can someone help me with ndiswrapper?
[09:12] <wam> yes
[09:12] <gluttony> Pelo: yes
[09:12] <monaleilani> It's making Ubuntu freeze
[09:12] <monaleilani> and yes, I've googled alot
[09:12] <ismailmf> dredhammer i dont see why not just replace the scrip
[09:12] <monaleilani> but I'm at my wit's end
[09:13] <purpzey> Kakarat-|: Is there any reason to think that where xorg.conf is pointing to the device is necessarily where it is?
[09:13] <dredhammer> how do you do that ismailmf?
[09:13] <gluttony> Pelo: im using Ubuntu Feisty with studio repos
[09:13] <Pelo> gluttony,  sudo apt-get install gparted,   then open gparted in the system admin menu <
[09:13] <ismailmf> :D this i cant help you with
[09:13] <ismailmf> :D
[09:13] <ismailmf> sorry
[09:13] <ismailmf> i just got the concepts
[09:14] <gluttony> some one earlier told me not to run gparted as as app, and instead off the live.
[09:14] <ismailmf> still didnt reach the stage of implementing
[09:14] <KakaRoT-|> purpzey: i don't know
[09:14] <gluttony> Pelo: once i run gparted, what do i do?
[09:14] <dredhammer> well every few minutes the network manager blinks then my whole system freezes for a few seconds
[09:14] <Cobra_Fast> here i am
[09:14] <Pelo> gluttony,  you won'T be running it to make modification , just to have a good  , easy look at your hdd
[09:14] <jinroh> Hello there!!
[09:14] <ismailmf> gluttony yes thats right. because gparted needs to unmount the drive. it cant do that if its running from the drive
[09:14] <Cobra_Fast> well i installed fglrx but X.org just responds some errors
[09:14] <dredhammer> never happened in either Edgy or Dapper so i think theres something wrong with the network manager
[09:14] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: sorry, it wa CTRL+ALT+F1
[09:14] <masterloki> um
[09:15] <artabrahao> hi, the ubuntu that I have installed are in the internet, how Can I acess via terminal? I just configured terminal optinos to accept connections but I doont know what terminal client I use from windows or internet
[09:15] <masterloki> i cant get my system to autoplay cd's
[09:15] <Yetiamchosen> ... There are a lot of users in here. o_O
[09:15] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: you should reconfig xorg
[09:15] <jinroh> could you recommend me an BITTORRENT client? Azureus randomly crashes at startup. (Was using uTorrent in Windows). Any similiar program? (graphical)
[09:15] <Pelo> gluttony,   there is a drop down list to the right fo the tool bar, it lets you select your hdd,  check each hdd for your linux-swap partition
[09:15] <wam> Yetiamchosen: indeed
[09:15] <masterloki> installed all recommended packages - have xmms/soundjuicer/audacious in
[09:15] <Cobra_Fast> how can i do that????
[09:15] <gluttony> yeah, it shows me as having a 500 MiB  swap, but no mount port
[09:15] <dredhammer> jinroh try ktorrent
[09:15] <masterloki> the cdplayer thing that comes by default does work but is kinda ugly =/
[09:15] <Pelo> gluttony,  swaps usualy aren't mounted
[09:15] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: simple way, using dpkg-reconfigure command
[09:15] <gluttony> Pelo: ok, but it does say i have one
[09:15] <Cobra_Fast> thx, brb
[09:15] <masterloki> anyone know why xmms wouldnt play it? i installed literally anything or w/e it might need
[09:16] <jinroh> dreamnid, already tried (using it now) but don't know... it's strange (and it's KDE haha) any other alternative?
[09:16] <masterloki> ;_;
[09:16] <monaleilani> Can anyone help me with ndiswrapper? I've googled the problem but it hasn't helped
[09:16] <Pelo> gluttony,  yes you have one, it just isnT' mounted,  it doesn't need to be mounted to be used
[09:16] <ismailmf> yup its a swap you cant do much with it
[09:16] <wam> Yetiamchosen: ;-)
[09:16] <MonsieurBon> can I use kernel 2.6.21 with ubuntu feisty? and if yes, how?
[09:16] <wam> yes
[09:16] <Pelo> gluttony,  that may be awrong statement , hold on
[09:16] <ismailmf> monaleilani how can i help you
[09:16] <monaleilani> ndiswrapper is making my computer freeze up..
[09:16] <gluttony> Pelo: ok. but in my system monitor, it says none of it is being used
[09:16] <xerebz> has anyone used samba to make a network between xp and ubuntu?
[09:16] <wam> MonsieurBon: download, compile, reboot
[09:17] <dredhammer> yes i have xerebz
[09:17] <Pelo> gluttony,  mine isn'T mounted either,
[09:17] <Yetiamchosen> I'm kind of impressed. This crowd doesn't seem to be as snobbish as the ones in #debian. Even if I can't stand ubuntu. xD
[09:17] <monaleilani> ismailmf: right now I've uninstalled it, I'm unsure of what I should install, I've read things that say to use the version on the cd, or to download and compile it yourself
[09:17] <MonsieurBon> wam, that sounds pretty easy! :D Can I use the config from ubuntu?
[09:17] <xerebz> you just set up a normal xp network then edit smb.conf to match the xp settings?
[09:17] <Pelo> gluttony, your swap will get used if / when it is needed , it is not something you need to worry about
[09:17] <wam> Yetiamchosen: I use Debian myself...
[09:17] <jinroh> any alternative to KTorrent?? (or how can I fix that azureus crashes?)
[09:17] <wam> MonsieurBon: yes, that's what I usually do
[09:18] <Yetiamchosen> xerebz, I'm using samba to make a network between debian and windows xp right now... basically the same thing. What do you want to know?
[09:18] <ismailmf> we are all here to help as much as we can
[09:18] <gluttony> Pelo: i am worried because my system keeps boggin down alot
[09:18] <Ali_ix> jinroh: Qbittorrent. deluge
[09:18] <Pelo> Yetiamchosen, we can turn our collective nose at you if you want ?
[09:18] <dredhammer> hmmm you could try the original bittorrent client jinroh
[09:18] <KennyTheGeek> whats ubuntu's standard runlevel?
[09:18] <dredhammer> for now
[09:18] <xerebz> i installed samba and edited smb.conf
[09:18] <Yetiamchosen> Pelo, ehh, I think I'll pass, thanks though. :P
[09:18] <jinroh> well, but BitTorrent it's not "graphical" (I mean, azureus-like)
[09:18] <xerebz> now i did the network wizard on xp pro
[09:18] <Rynoo> Has anyone else had a problem with GnomeBaker after upgrading to 7.04 from 6.10
[09:18] <MonsieurBon> wam, is there an ubuntu source?
[09:18] <xerebz> it should be working?
[09:18] <wam> MonsieurBon: you can have a look at this http://www.cepcasa.info/parted/kernel.html it's in french but the commands are universal
[09:18] <monaleilani> ismailmf: should I install ndiswrapper from cd or from the internet
[09:18] <Pelo> gluttony,  how much memory do you have ? what kind of cpu , are you running the desktop effects, or beryl ?
[09:18] <vikzx86> Can someone send me a demonoid invite?
[09:18] <jinroh> you mean BitTorrent Experimental and all those programs?? (I tried them years ago in windows, when BT was beggining)
[09:18] <ismailmf> if it crashes it might be related to another program runing thats using the same lib
[09:18] <Ali_ix> jinroh: do you need web based one?
[09:18] <ismailmf> perhaps
[09:18] <dredhammer> jinroh what was the error via the terminal when azureus crashed?
[09:18] <Rynoo> GnomeBaker worked great with my Sony 230EE on 6.10..
[09:19] <wam> MonsieurBon: no, the kernel is universel, download it on kernel.org
[09:19] <ismailmf> i use bittorrent
[09:19] <jinroh> Ali_ix, nope, but nice graphical :)
[09:19] <gluttony> Pelo: i used to run beryl, and it worked fine. i have 256 mb, and a 1.5 ghz processor
[09:19] <MonsieurBon> wam, ok
[09:19] <ismailmf> and i use piratebay for search
[09:19] <Ali_ix> jinroh: deluge and qbittorrent are nice too
[09:19] <jinroh> dredhammer, don't know, but it's fixed deleting the "logs" file for azureus
[09:19] <Yetiamchosen> xerebz, may I pm you and help you?
[09:19] <ompaul> wam, not accurate
[09:19] <xerebz> please do
[09:19] <jason0_> Anyone here use ivman?
[09:19] <jinroh> dredhammer, but of couse, I need to do that every azureus restart...
[09:19] <ismailmf> there is also an torrent extension for firefox could be a solution
[09:19] <jinroh> Ali_ix, I'll try :) (are they in repositories?)
[09:19] <ompaul> MonsieurBon, you have to have access to the source as it is GPLed so what version of ubuntu are you using?
[09:19] <wam> ompaul: in what way?
[09:19] <dredhammer> so nobody knows if its possible to replace the troublesome network manager applet that sits in the system tray in fiesty? its locking up my system every few minutes
[09:20] <Ali_ix> jinroh: yes
[09:20] <Frogzoo> wam: the kernel is patched for every distro, so it's not really a good idea to be installing custom kernels
[09:20] <Pelo> gluttony, you don'T have a very fast system, I'm not surprise it gets slow,   I woukldn'T use the candy if i were in your place,  also try an review what ever progs you autoload and if you realy need them or not
[09:20] <MonsieurBon> ompaul, feisty
[09:20] <ismailmf> hmmm
[09:20] <Pelo> dredhammer,  check in hte forum
[09:20] <artabrahao> hi, the ubuntu that I have installed are in the internet, how Can I acess via terminal? I just configured terminal optinos to accept connections but I doont know what terminal client I use from windows or internet
[09:20] <wam> ompaul: and what if you use the same config file?
[09:20] <ompaul> wam, (A) the kernel is not from kernel.org (yet) (B) you can download the source
[09:20] <monaleilani> I'm just about to go back to windows.
[09:20] <jinroh> Ali_ix, don't find those programs in repositories
[09:20] <dredhammer> i don't see a thing for replacing it Pelo
[09:20] <gluttony> well, before i started using studio, the system worked completly fine. i ran beryl with no problems
[09:20] <monaleilani> FF is terrible.. Maybe I'll go back to EE, at least it worked
[09:21] <jinroh> (and yes, I have universe)
[09:21] <Ali_ix> jinroh: you may need to activate universe repository in synaptic
[09:21] <Yetiamchosen> Oh god, I just realised... I'm not registered, so my pm's to xerebz won't work.;
[09:21] <jinroh> (and yes, I have universe) :P
[09:21] <Pelo> dredhammer,  don'T check for a solution,  check for the problem
[09:21] <xerebz> it's ok
[09:21] <Ali_ix> jinroh: google deluge :">
[09:21] <xerebz> i got the server to work
[09:21] <xerebz> thanks everyone
[09:21] <ismailmf> nop try the wiki dredhammer
[09:21] <Yetiamchosen> Xerebz, join my irc server at irc.alternet.us.
[09:21] <jinroh> :( hate compiling
[09:21] <Yetiamchosen> I'll help you set up your network there. :P
[09:21] <ompaul> MonsieurBon, so I suggest that you open synaptic package manager, and then make sure that you have sources included, then search for the source to whatever program you want
[09:21] <MonsieurBon> ompaul, I'm using feisty
[09:21] <Pelo> gluttony,  studio probably has some defaults that donT' agree with you
[09:21] <Ali_ix> jinroh: no compiling needed, they have .deb packages
[09:21] <Ali_ix> jinroh: just two click to install
[09:21] <jinroh> just noticed :p
[09:21] <Yetiamchosen> My pm's won't go through to you, since I'm not registered with freenode. xD
[09:22] <MonsieurBon> ompaul, are you sure, I get the sources for kernel 2.6.21 that way?
[09:22] <gluttony> Pelo: so, in the studio channel, what sort of question do i need to ask them?
[09:22] <xerebz> yetiamchosen it's ok i got it to work
[09:22] <wam> ompaul: he looks for the 2.6.21
[09:22] <Pelo> gluttony,  just start whinning " why is my system so slow "   and wait to get kicked out
[09:22] <jinroh> Ali_ix, Deluge seems nice :D thx
[09:23] <ompaul> MonsieurBon, wam sorry I see it now - ehh no you will have to look to kernel.org and I would strongly suggest you don't go there it may break on you in many interesting and unsupported ways
[09:23] <igmyzt> someone help me with this. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2682673

[09:23] <wam> MonsieurBon: why do you want that newer kernel version?
[09:23] <MonsieurBon> ompaul, well, I won't try it on a productive system
[09:23] <gluttony> on a seperate note, what does a triangle with an ! in it mean in GParted?
[09:23] <Pelo> gluttony,  seriously,   just turn on the system monitor and keep it in view , when your cmp starts t slow down,  have a look to see what is eating up your resources
[09:23] <ompaul> MonsieurBon, I think it will be very unproductive very very fast
[09:24] <jinroh> so does anybody play Counter-Strike: Source on Feisty?
[09:24] <Pelo> gluttony,  where does this appear ?

[09:28] <igmyzt> ikonia: i tried to install the monitor and all i get is that wrong refresh rate error. how do i know what the rate is?
[09:28] <Pelo> melsu, search for the error msg in the forum
[09:28] <ismailmf> heheheh well i'm using a toshiba m50 and ubuntu is running alot faster than window
[09:29] <ismailmf> s
[09:29] <ikonia> igmyzt: read the manual of the monitor
[09:29] <ismailmf> even the wifi is running better
[09:29] <monaleilani> why does it freeze?..
[09:29] <monaleilani> there are no answers..
[09:29] <Pelo> gluttony, depends on your installation,   usualy in /home
[09:29] <igmyzt> ikonia: dont have one
[09:29] <ikonia> monaleilani: your using driver wrappers
[09:29] <ikonia> igmyzt: check the internet
[09:29] <ompaul> monaleilani, cos your card people don't release the source to work with the linux kernel
[09:29] <wam> monaleilani: nvidia drivers?
[09:29] <hannhimhe> I'm trying to get a partition span over more than one (seven to be precise) drive. I've used the Logical Volume Management application in Fedora Core 5 which worked fine. I followed a guide and installed the Fedora application on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty. It does not work. Are there any other way to do this? GUI och command-line, I don't care.
[09:29] <Pelo> latere folks
[09:29] <monaleilani> ...
[09:29] <monaleilani> I have the driver installed with ndiswrapper
[09:30] <ikonia> hannhimhe: lvm works fine
[09:30] <gluttony> can i change which drive home is on?
[09:30] <wam> monaleilani: ok, wireless
[09:30] <monaleilani> when the card turns on, my system halts
[09:30] <ompaul> monaleilani, that is a windows driver
[09:30] <gluttony> Pelo: thanks for the help
[09:30] <wam> monaleilani: 64 bits?
[09:30] <ikonia> monaleilani: ndisdriver is really classed as a work around
[09:30] <jrib> gluttony: yes, just edit /etc/fstab appropriately
[09:30] <monaleilani> No, 32b
[09:30] <Frogzoo> gluttony: you can move home wherever you like
[09:30] <ismailmf> could be the driver its self
[09:30] <monaleilani> Well, luckily for me, my wireless card isn't natively supported by Ubuntu
[09:30] <purpzey> what is the proper command line to edit xorg.conf from terminal? I thought it was sudo edit
[09:30] <ikonia> monaleilani: nothing we can do about that
[09:30] <monaleilani> This is really funny because ndiswrapper worked fine when I had EE
[09:30] <jrib> purpzey: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:30] <x1nux> hi
[09:30] <wam> monaleilani: ok, because I had it trying to use 32 bits drivers on a 64 bits machine
[09:30] <Ali_ix> purpzey: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:30] <hannhimhe> ikonia. Umm, how? The gui application is the only one I've used before...doesn't seem to work in Ubuntu (I may be very wrong about this).

[09:32] <gluttony> jrib: where is /etc/fstab located? im still learning how to do stuff like that

[09:33] <ikonia> x1nux: whats the problem ?
[09:34] <monaleilani> beh.. I dunno.. I just wish there was a way to make it stop freezing up
[09:34] <ikonia> monaleilani: if your drivers/hardware don't work, nothing to do really.
[09:34] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: run in terminal: "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"

[09:34] <ubotu> Cobra_Fast: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:34] <ikonia> x1nux: 1.) Linux Ultimate is not an official ubuntu product 2.) ubuntu logs you in so you don't need to know the password
[09:34] <iamelite> Can someone name a program to burn video to Dvd video disks?

[09:38] <ismailmf> when you deactivate the wired
[09:38] <Lilacor> Timmytom: first figure out what chipset you're using and then start searching for that chipset
[09:38] <ismailmf> the wireless wors
[09:38] <ismailmf> works
[09:38] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: dont close current console
[09:38] <Timmytom> Lilacor: I have, but I can't see why I would want to go through all thatt hassle when it worked on a live cd just a few days ago
[09:39] <atselby>  My gnome bars are not showing up in all of my workspaces. Does anyone have any tips for me?
[09:39] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: swith to other consoles with CTRL+ALT+F1-F6
[09:39] <Timmytom> ismailmf: : How do I deactive the wired?
[09:39] <Frogzoo> gluttony: best to do that booted in recovery mode as root
[09:39] <gluttony> jrib: i search, and it say not found
[09:39] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: path: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:39] <Cobra_Fast> Ali_ix: but all the other consoles dont work (only blinking cursor)
[09:39] <ikonia> Timmytom: use the gnome-network config gui and disable it
[09:39] <jrib> gluttony: yes, I realize that now.  That's why I asked you to join me in #ubuntu-classroom :)
[09:39] <Elm> Frog: There doesnt appear to be an option to enable/disable CD boot, just USB and PxE.
[09:39] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: read the Device section
[09:39] <ismailmf> go to system administration and then network
[09:39] <Frogzoo> gluttony: or log out, and do it from ctrl alt f1
[09:39] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: are in live mode? 8}
[09:39] <igmyzt> i have a question
[09:40] <gluttony> Frogzoo: to be honest, i haven't been able to figure out how to do that
[09:40] <ismailmf> you will see the wired and the wireless
[09:40] <Frogzoo> Elm: maybe your pc doesn't boot cds ?
[09:40] <ikonia> igmyzt: then ask it
[09:40] <Cobra_Fast> Ali_ix: im in recovery-mode :S
[09:40] <ismailmf> just uncheck the wired box
[09:40] <Frogzoo> Elm: oh if it can boot usb, it can boot cd...
[09:40] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: :}
[09:40] <igmyzt> if i select the wrong monitor or something, how would i fix it without being able to see ubuntu (only error on monitor)
[09:40] <purpzey> I just did Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to restart my X-Console, and I got an error that a change I made to xorg.conf (in the InputDevices) one of the values was not recognized...and it also says "No Screen Found" and has dropped me back out to blackscren
[09:40] <Timmytom> ikonia: Just one simple uncheck will do?
[09:40] <Cobra_Fast> the path again SORRY
[09:40] <ikonia> Timmytom: yup
[09:40] <Cobra_Fast> plz
[09:40] <Ali_ix> Cobra_Fast: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:41] <Lilacor> purpzey: did you make a backup of your old xorg.conf?
[09:41] <purpzey> No.
[09:41] <Lilacor> purpzey: oh dear
[09:41] <purpzey> I know the value that I change
[09:41] <purpzey> d
[09:41] <ismailmf> yup
[09:41] <Cobra_Fast> brb
[09:41] <ikonia> igmyzt: you can boot into safe/recovery mode
[09:41] <Elm> The CD shows in IDE menu, in the Boot Priorty only one (1st) priority shows, and theres only one thing you can put in it (Hard Drive)
[09:41] <Ali_ix> ;)
[09:41] <Frogzoo> gluttony: log out your user, hit <ctrl><alt>f1 - login, then 'sudo -i' will get you a root account - then 'cp -R /old/home /new/home'
[09:41] <ismailmf> uncheck
[09:41] <atselby> Hello, my gnome bars are not showing up in all my workspaces, only workspace one, and I havn't been able to fix it. Does anyone have any suggestions etc.? I'm using Ubuntu Feisty with the default 3D effects, Compiz/GL, thanks
[09:41] <Lilacor> purpzey: then undo that change and try again
[09:41] <ismailmf> and restart the system
[09:41] <hannhimhe> ikonia. This seem to work. (the lvm issue)
[09:41] <ikonia> hannhimhe: cool
[09:41] <Timmytom> Hmm, now the network manager shows 0% and the signal icon, instead of the animated "connecting" thinghy
[09:41] <purpzey> Lilacor: So I need a hard boot?
[09:41] <Lilacor> purpzey: double check your spelling and format
[09:41] <Lilacor> purpzey: no
[09:41] <Frogzoo> gluttony: log out your user, hit <ctrl><alt>f1 - login, then 'sudo -i' will get you a root account - then 'cp -pR /old/home /new/home'
[09:42] <purpzey> Lilacor: At the moment the last line I have output is "*Running Local boot scripts" and I have merely an underscore, doesn't look like a bash prompt
[09:42] <Lilacor> thank goodness for expresscards and SATA
[09:42] <SirronTM> Can anyone help me find the old ATI driver? The new one won't work properly on my laptop
[09:43] <ismailmf> thats because there is no network available
[09:43] <Lilacor> purpzey: can't you escape out of that script?
[09:43] <Ratkid132> Hello everyone! (Omg 1200 people?!)
[09:44] <Timmytom> iwlist scan finds my route

[09:44] <TehRealNexGen> thats normal i think
[09:44] <TehRealNexGen> i have that too
[09:44] <Cobra_Fast> how can i upload some directories via FTP in system-terminal?
[09:44] <ikonia> atselby: the gnome/compiz stuff has had a few issues with nvidia, are you using nvidia drivers
[09:44] <atselby> ikonia: no I am not. I'm using ATI.
[09:45] <atselby> ikonia: this just started today. It was fine yesterday.
[09:45] <Ratkid132> Apparently I need to know more on "need to learn a bit more about how to compile an external kernel module". Could someone help me with this?
[09:45] <ikonia> atselby: sorry, I don't have any exeperience on that
[09:45] <atselby> ikonia; okay, thanks
[09:45] <SirronTM> Anybody know where I can get the old ATI drivers? I mean, the ones from the Edgy repo - are they still they same perhaps?
[09:45] <ikonia> Ratkid132: who told you that ?
[09:45] <purpzey> Lilacor: As you can probably tell I am new at all this...I didn't realize that was an option...I am in the process of a reboot, if GUI fails to load again and I run into the same problem, how do I get out the script, and if I can't, then next I reboot how can I reboot into a bash terminal so I can fix this?
[09:45] <monaleilani> w00t! I found some instructions that did the trick. Now to see if it remains working after I reboot..
[09:45] <ikonia> Ratkid132: that you need to know more ?

[09:45] <Cobra_Fast> how can i upload some directories via FTP in system-terminal?
[09:45] <Timmytom> Is the wireless supposed to be in "roaming mode"?
[09:45] <ikonia> Ratkid132: this channel is for ubuntu support issues, not really for general linux learning
[09:45] <strabes> purpzey: hit ctrl+alt+f2
[09:45] <strabes> purpzey: once it crashes
[09:46] <Lilacor> purpzey: that's fine if you're new. everyone was new at one point
[09:46] <ismailmf> atselby try killall gnome-panel
[09:46] <Ratkid132> where should I go ikonia?
[09:46] <atselby> ismalmf: just did. it worked.
[09:46] <atselby> thanks
[09:46] <ikonia> Ratkid132: you could try ##linux ?
[09:46] <Cobra_Fast> how can i upload some directories via FTP in system-terminal?
[09:46] <ikonia> Cobra_Fast: I know how you can stop asking every 10 seconds
[09:46] <Ratkid132> ok thanks you mean #linux right?
[09:46] <Lilacor> Cobra_Fast: use ncftp
[09:46] <ikonia> Ratkid132: I mean ##linux
[09:46] <strabes> Cobra_Fast: sftp
[09:47] <Ratkid132> whats the extra hash for ikonia?
[09:47] <purpzey> Lilacor: Ok, got to the bash terminal, now what command do I need to pull up xorg.conf? sudo ????? /etc/X11/xorg.cong ?

[09:47] <Waddledee> Can someone suggest a good player to listen to streams with?  Right now, Music Player launches when I click on a stream, and it'll play a stream, but for some reason it doesn't start playing the stream when I click; I have to manually tell it what stream to play.
[09:47] <ompaul> Ratkid132, it is not official linux so it is unofficial

[09:48] <Timmytom> But the Live-CD should be the same each time you boot right? Doesn't make any sense that my wireless card would stop working on the live-CD, when it worked two days ago? (and yeah, it is a linux issue)
[09:48] <ikonia> thanks jrib, didn't see you active
[09:48] <jrib> ikonia: I wasn't, thanks for the ping
[09:48] <Ali_ix> wow
[09:48] <Lilacor> purpzey: okay, do yo know what vi is?
[09:48] <ikonia> cool
[09:48] <sf_> For some reason, this samba mount doesn't automatically mount at startup. So I have to do sudo mount -a every time after booting. Also, it doesn't remount automatically. The fstab line is: //zaypc/shareddocs      /media/ZayPC-SharedDocs smbfs   guest,rw,uid=sf 0      0
[09:48] <purpzey> Lilacor: Not really no...I mean, I am obviously not totally inept with computers, I am just unfamiliar with all of this territory.
[09:49] <Lilacor> purpzey: do you have 'nano' installed?
[09:49] <SirronTM> So nobody knows if the ATI driver in the Edgy repo is the same as the one in the feisty repo?
[09:49] <Lilacor> purpzey: use 'nano -w xorg.conf'
[09:49] <Waddledee> SirronTM, TehRealNexGen: thanks for the suggestions.  I'll look into them.
[09:49] <purpzey> Lilacor: I assume not...The nice thing about dealing with this particular issue is that this is basically a brand new install so if it should become totally messed up I can just reinstall via livecd.
[09:50] <purpzey> ok nano worked.

[09:50] <GeekChick|> Has anyone gotten PowerTOP for Intel processors to work? I build the makefile with GCC 4.1 and its telling me that I need CONFIG_TIMER_STATS and CONFIG_NO_HZ to be enabled in the kernel to get any useful statistics.
[09:51] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: welp, that probably requires a kernel recompilation
[09:51] <purpzey> Lilacor: Ok.  But it wont let me convert AVI to DvD and burn it.

[09:51] <HungryBeerBelly>     Karaore, bi tirjanah, i varcenberg i Kutuzov.
[09:51] <ikonia> GeekChick|: timer stats should be enabled on 7.04 not sure about config_no_hhz
[09:51] <Lilacor> purpzey: save.. then try 'startx'
[09:51] <soothsay> GeekChick|: Works for me on Feisty
[09:51] <GeekChick|> ikonia, i've got feisty fawn installed and its not on
[09:51] <ikonia> jrib: chatzilla client says it all ;)
[09:51] <soothsay> GeekChick|: Oops, never mind.
[09:52] <Lilacor> soothsay: I don't have that parameter enabled under FF...I get the same error
[09:52] <GeekChick|> http://pastebin.ca/495990
[09:52] <ikonia> GeekChick|: have you checked
[09:52] <GeekChick|> @ soothsay
[09:52] <Lilacor> soothsay: >:(
[09:52] <purpzey> Lilacor: Permission denied on save...Did I need a sudo there?
[09:52] <Lilacor> purpzey: yes you did
[09:52] <iamelite> lol
[09:52] <Timmytom> What's the command for manually setting wireless WEP key, instead of using "network manager"
[09:52] <Lilacor> purpzey: you need sudo
[09:52] <ikonia> GeekChick|: you'd have to rebuild the ubuntu kernel
[09:52] <soothsay> I only get the CONFIG_TIMER_STATS 'error', not the CONFIG_NO_HZ
[09:52] <Timmytom> aka via connecting via terinal
[09:53] <Frogzoo> Timmytom: man iwconfig
[09:53] <sf_> For some reason, this samba mount doesn't automatically mount at startup. So I have to do sudo mount -a every time after booting. Also, it doesn't remount automatically. The fstab line is this, can anyone see what is wrong with it?: //zaypc/shareddocs      /media/ZayPC-SharedDocs smbfs   guest,rw,uid=sf 0      0
[09:53] <Elm> sudo make me a sandwich ;.;
[09:53] <GeekChick|> ikonia, ive never done a kernel rebuild before and im not looking forward to it.
[09:53] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: it's a right of passage for all linux users
[09:53] <masterloki> anyone know how to make xmms actually play cd's [ie .cda]  i put in the playcd package for xmms but its still being a bear =/ libcdaudo.so/.so.1 are there.... etc mp3's etc play - i can even get sound-juicer to play the cd's when they are already inserted in the drive i even setup a global shortcut to play a cd via soundjuicer but i just want it to work auto and the guides i found in the forums havnt worked... =/
[09:53] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: you'll enjoy it if you like learning new things
[09:53] <Seveas> sf_, first of all you need cifs instead of smbfs :)
[09:53] <masterloki> GeekChick|, its really not that hard :)
[09:53] <Frogzoo> masterloki: audacious ?
[09:54] <tim__> list
[09:54] <GeekChick|> Lilacor, but there is no list of options that is already enabled in ubuntu. the end point would need to be an identical ubuntu install with just those two extra options, and nothing else changed.
[09:54] <masterloki> Frogzoo, audacious didnt even recognize the cd
[09:54] <hammedhaaret> Hi... i got feisty on a laptop with bluetooth.... how do i use it? is there a nice ui somewhere that i've missed?!?
[09:54] <tim__> quit
[09:54] <jason0_> Anyone here use thunar-volman?
[09:54] <Cobra_Fast> ftp doesnt work
[09:54] <jason0_> I can't seem to get it to do anything when I plug in a usb device
[09:54] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: first save your current kernel and then try to compile a new kernel to use so you have a way to back out of any goofy errors that pop up along the way
[09:55] <purpzey> Lilacor: The xorg.conf now matches the settings I was trying to apply exactly and I am getting an error related to my synaptics driver (which is what I was trying to adjust)...Also getting "No screens found" These two things probably related?
[09:55] <Ratkid132> ikonia: No one on ##linux is being very helpful -.-
[09:55] <Parmenion> hey guys, anyone could recommend me a good GTD app?
[09:55] <Timmytom> Ok, I try to set it with iwconfig, and I get "device or resource busy"
[09:55] <Cobra_Fast> is there any way to autoconfigure the X.org?
[09:55] <ikonia> Ratkid132: I can't help you then
[09:55] <masterloki> Seveas, out of curiosity are your repos/mirrors containing the same packages as the medubuntu ones?
[09:55] <ismailmf> question is anyone having problems with audacity in feisty?
[09:55] <ismailmf> or is it just me
[09:55] <LjL> masterloki: no but some possibly overlap(ped)
[09:55] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, nothing useful, no. use "sudo hcitool scan" to find the device, then "sudo hcitool cc|auth|info <BT_ADDRESS> to get various paramaters. and then "sudo hidd --connect <BT_ADDRESS>"
[09:55] <masterloki> i mean not neccisarally the same versions - you compile your stuff a lot rite? but i noticed its ultra slow
[09:55] <masterloki> :P ah LjL
[09:55] <stefg> !fixres | Cobra_Fast
[09:55] <masterloki>  mmmm

[09:56] <Seveas> masterloki, there is some overlap
[09:56] <woodchaz> Hello. My DVD burner worked fine in edgy, upgraded to feisty and it's not even recognized. Any ideas?
[09:56] <ubotu> Cobra_Fast: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:56] <Seveas> sf_, smbfs is deprecated and unmaintained. It's been replacd with cifs a long time ago
[09:56] <ismailmf> the alsa is buggy

[09:56] <ismailmf> doesnt work for audio playback
[09:57] <masterloki> also Seveas how permenant does a mirror have to be? and can one use say php to rsynch? or do so as a non root user?
[09:57] <GeekChick|> Lilacor, im sorry. what? lol. how do i save my current kernel configuration, and, also, how do i get a list of everything ubuntu has turned on? so that i can just load that configuration file and add the two extras needed for PowerTOP?
[09:57] <Cobra_Fast> when i typed "startx" x starts without any problems but the screen goes black (standby-mode)
[09:57] <Malnilion> Anybody here know why there is a filename length limit in Samba and how I could potentially fix it?
[09:57] <masterloki> ive got about 9 months on one of my accounts i have hosting with and have 2TB a month bw and its decently fast for north america
[09:57] <Lilacor> purpzey: most likely they're related since you're mucking with your xorg.conf file
[09:57] <sf_> Seveas: you're kidding, right? All the docs (that I've found) say to use smbfs. Is cifs basically equivalent? Meaning, will it connect to all the same shares, without doing anything on the other end?
[09:57] <masterloki> mm mebbie 8 :P
 sf_, smbfs is deprecated and unmaintained. It's been replacd with cifs a long time ago # uh, but do ppl use cifs? never
[09:57] <Seveas> masterloki, as permanent as possible :)
[09:57] <kbrooks> </bias?
[09:58] <kbrooks> s/?/>/
[09:58] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| ....so you have to use terminal every single time?!?! maaaaaaaan
[09:58] <masterloki> but i would probably need to buy a domain to point at it because i get a deal with new accounts which i activate as we go along
[09:58] <Seveas> sf_, cifs can replace smbfs and can do more
[09:58] <masterloki> [dreamhost]
[09:58] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: I'm not sure.
[09:58] <purpzey> Lilacor: What is that error trying to tell me...Undefined InputDevice "...." referenced by...That mean I am using the wrong driver, or that I applied the driver to the wrong device...etc?
[09:58] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: I haven't compiled my own kernel in quite some time
[09:58] <Seveas> kbrooks, that's because smbfs still mostly works -- it's little known that it actually should not be used
[09:58] <sf_> Seveas: why do the ubuntu docs say to use smbfs then?
[09:58] <masterloki> ends up costing 21 bucks for a year lol so i jsut get a new one b/c after that its 9 bucks a month and i'm a cheap bastard
[09:58] <masterloki> XD
[09:58] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, no, i added it to the auto connect in /etc/default/bluetooth i think
[09:58] <Seveas> sf_, see what I just wrote to kbrooks
[09:58] <kbrooks> Seveas, what is little known?
[09:59] <Cobra_Fast> is it possible to autoconf Xorg by reinstalling it in dpkg or apt-get?
[09:59] <Lilacor> purpzey: if you undo all of the changes you made to xorg.conf and try to run 'startx' what happens?
[09:59] <Seveas> kbrooks, that smbfs actually is deprecated in favour of cifs
[09:59] <masterloki> <<[09:59] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: there's a LOT of guides on how to compile your own kernel though
[09:59] <ikonia> kbrooks: fedora/redhat don't even include smbfs any more

[09:59] <Llivavin> Mmm
[10:00] <Waddledee> Okay, I've installed VLC.  Attempting to play a stream produces a really staticy, buzzy result, though.  I'm guessing it's a codec issue, but it plays fine in Movie Player, so I'm not sure how best to make VLC able to play the stream.

[10:00] <kbrooks> Seveas, wow, that easy
[10:00] <sf_> Seveas: so I can just substitute "cifs" for "smbfs" in my /etc/fstab and it will work? Should it fix my problems?
[10:00] <Cobra_Fast> let it be
[10:00] <kbrooks> Seveas, impressive
[10:00] <woodchaz> Hello. My DVD burner worked fine in edgy, recently upgraded to feisty and now it's not recognized. Any ideas?
[10:00] <lonran> anybody using thunderbird knows if there's any way to iconify it in the icon tray?
[10:00] <wheatie> Hello, is there a way to make the "applications", "Paces", and "Systems" menus transparent?
[10:00] <Seveas> sf_, might happen, but unlikely. It's good to do anyway :)(
[10:01] <dkkong> Is there a way to get my Lexmark All in one at least printing in ubuntu?
[10:01] <ikonia> lonran: it doesn't go the system tray, its a task bar app
[10:01] <ismailmf> wheatie use beryl
[10:01] <wimdows> Hi folks - how do I restart Samba?
[10:01] <ikonia> wimdows: restart the init script in /etc/init.d
[10:01] <Timmytom> link quality 0 :(
[10:01] <GeekChick|> stefg, i've done something similar in a gentoo install,  but that guide will help, thanks. however, how do i make sure that every option ubuntu already has turend on in the kernel makes it over to the rebuild. is there a configuration file i can copy?
[10:01] <wheatie> ismailmf, there is no such function from within gnome it's self?
[10:02] <gnilor> lonran, no, but there are workarounds, i am using kdocker to get it there
[10:02] <Aeos> I burned the iso to a dvd and when I ran it off the disc and all it did was spew errors
[10:02] <sf_> Seveas: OK, will try that.
[10:02] <ismailmf> nop metacity doesnt support it
[10:02] <Lilacor> wimdows: /etc/init.d/<samba daemon name> restart
[10:02] <gnilor> lonran, there are similar tools for gnome/... iirc
[10:02] <dkkong> Scanning or printing for that matter...
[10:02] <purpzey> Lilacor: YAY! Now I am back where I started....Namely, with a touchpad that I cannot adjust the sensitivity on
[10:02] <ismailmf> i think kde has it though
[10:02] <wheatie> thank you
[10:02] <stefg> GeekChick|: the config for each kernel is always archived in /boot
[10:02] <dazjorz> Hi Seveas, long time no see.
[10:02] <lonran> gnilor, u mean like kdocker?
[10:02] <dazjorz> Seveas, if you still remember me, that is.
[10:02] <Lilacor> purpzey: better than a black screen, no?
[10:02] <Seveas> dazjorz, vaguely :)
[10:02] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| hmmm why does it say 'command not found' to the connect command thingy
[10:03] <GeekChick|> stefg, so the current config file is in /boot?
[10:03] <purpzey>  Lilacor: Unquestionably! Thank you very much...=)
[10:03] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, which one?
[10:03] <chrisjs169|afk> ok, I'm trying to use this computer as a router, got everything working except that it the computer connecting to this one isn't able to get on the 'net.  it resolves the domains fine, but I think iptables is blocking it.....ip_forward is set to 1
[10:03] <wimdows> cheers ikonia and Lilacor - "sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart" did the trick
[10:03] <dazjorz> Sevas: oh, well, it must've been years, or at least one
[10:03] <ikonia> chrisjs169|afk: iptables -L and check the rules
[10:03] <Lilacor> purpzey: okay, so *step one* MAKE A BACKUP of your xorg.conf file
[10:03] <dazjorz> Seveas: and in channels like this, people come and go constantly
[10:03] <Seveas> indeed :)
[10:03] <ikonia> chrisjs169|afk: you'll neet to use masqurading or a natting setup in iptables
[10:03] <purpzey> Lilacor: Any particular location or name it needs to have?
[10:04] <Ratkid132> btw anyone know why upgrading from Dapper to Edgy to Feisty has left the previous kernel in GRUB so I now have 3 OSs to boot from?
[10:04] <stefg> GeekChick|: yup.... cp /boot/config-2.6.20-15-generic /usr/src/linux will give you the current config as a starting point for your recompile
[10:04] <Lilacor> purpzey: yes.. in a location and name that you can easily remember so when you have to restore it you can just copy it over
[10:04] <chrisjs169|afk> ikonia: which one do you suggest I use?
[10:04] <ikonia> chrisjs169|afk: I prefer masquarding
[10:04] <dkkong> So no clue on the printer/scanner eh?
[10:04] <Waddledee> Can someone help me with my getting-VLC-to-play-a-stream-properly problem?
[10:05] <wimdows> I keep getting Access Denied. Unable to connect. in my printer status in Windows XP
[10:05] <Seveas> chrisjs169|afk, see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21603/ for an example iptables setup
[10:05] <ismailmf> because when you upgrade the old kernel remains
[10:05] <chrisjs169|afk> Seveas: ok, thanks
[10:05] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| the cc|auto something... im  trying the connect one... the BT address is the 65:45: an so on right?
[10:05] <ikonia> Seveas: thats a nice one to pull out of no-where
[10:05] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, oh, the | character wsa to seperate the different options.
[10:05] <Seveas> ikonia, :)
[10:06] <Seveas> chrisjs169|afk, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21605/ is even better ;)
[10:06] <wimdows> ikonia - restarting samba worked, but still don't seem to be able to print to the printer from WIndows XP
[10:06] <dkkong> Guess it's back to windows until ubuntu can support my printer
[10:06] <purpzey> Lilacor: It either won't copy or let me paste, not sure which, this something I need to do in terminal using sudo?
[10:06] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, so it would be "sudo hcitool cc 65:45:<rest of address>"
[10:06] <ikonia> wimdows: ok
[10:06] <chrisjs169|afk> Seveas: heh, ok
[10:07] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, and so on with auth, and then info, rather than cc
[10:07] <Lilacor> purpzey: what won't let you copy or paste?
[10:07] <wimdows> ikonia - shall I paste bin my smb.conf?
[10:07] <hammedhaaret> oh.. riiight (: i just copy+paste from the guys smarter than me... or girl?!?!?
[10:07] <ikonia> wimdows: no thanks
[10:07] <wimdows> ikonia - :-( hmm ok
[10:07] <Yetiamchosen> hahahahahahaha
[10:07] <purpzey> Lilacor: I go to xorg.conf, right click hit copy and then paste is still greyed out in X11 etc or even root dir
[10:07] <Yetiamchosen> * xerebz has quit (Remote closed the connection) <--- aaaaand it's a beautiful thing
[10:07] <Lilacor> hammedhaaret: wth?
[10:07] <Waddledee> Can someone help me with my getting-VLC-to-play-a-stream-properly problem?
[10:07] <Lilacor> purpzey: did you try sudo in front of your edit command?
[10:07] <ompaul> Yetiamchosen, your kinda ot we have #ubuntu-offtopic for chat :)
[10:08] <Yetiamchosen> Sorry about that. xD My fault. Literally.
[10:08] <wimdows> ok - does anyone here have their printer setup in Ubuntu and printing to it from a Win XP client?
[10:08] <MidNightSunRay> where can i find an italian-to-english dictionary server to add it to my panel applet???
[10:08] <Lilacor> purpzey: *cough*
[10:08] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, "sudo hcitool scan" will give you the address, name of device, etc... and thats needed to operate the rest of the commands that let you connect to the bluetooth device. once you get that done, you have to add a startup entry for the device in /etc/default/bluetooth i think. i h ave to get into Ubuntu to be sure though.
[10:08] <Lilacor> wimdows: you probably have to share it under samba
[10:08] <ompaul> !samba > wimdows (check out the mssage from the bot - ehh no I don't know samba myself)
[10:09] <purpzey> Lilacor: Yeah...I was just trying to do it the lazy way...e.g. copying and pasting the entire file in the GUI
[10:09] <wimdows> I love Linux - but sharing network printers etc. and being able to print to them from XP should be easier.
[10:09] <wimdows> Lilacor - I have shared it over samba
[10:09] <Timmytom> iwconfig finds the Access Point and correct frequency, but "link quality: 0" any tips?
[10:09] <Timmytom> (has worked before)
[10:09] <wimdows> Lilacor - and I can browse to it from the Windows XP client
[10:09] <Lilacor> purpzey: all you have to do is get into a root shell, and cp xorg.conf <filename>.back [orwhateveryou'dliketodo]
[10:09] <MidNightSunRay> where can i find an italian-to-english dictionary server to add it to my panel applet???
[10:09] <ismailmf> wimdows alotg of the problem is the drivers thats why the interface isnt that polished
[10:10] <Lilacor> wimdows: and you have the drivers installed for the printer under the windows client?
[10:10] <hammedhaaret> Lilacor : never mind.. his/her, i dunno, nick is geek-chick
[10:10] <wimdows> Lilacor - yep - i picked the correct drivers on the client and added "Use Client Driver = yes" in smb.conf
[10:11] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| ok thx... ill try to figure it out
[10:11] <Lilacor> wimdows: wish I could help you a little bit more.
[10:11] <wimdows> Lilacor - so do I ;-)
[10:11] <hagabaka> it would be nice if there was a concise modern English dictionary package...
[10:11] <bruenig> make one...
[10:11] <purpzey> Lilacor: Ok, I am just an idiot...I copied to xorgbackup.conf, I presume I need to change the name to xorgbackup.bak or something similar
[10:12] <Waddledee> Okay, I seem to have answered my own question: VLC allows me to turn the volume up so high everything gets clipped.  Odd.  But fixable.  *turns volume back down*
[10:12] <ismailmf> there is a dictionary tghat uses the internet lib
[10:12] <illriginal> Can someone tell me how I can become root?
[10:12] <Lilacor> purpzey: no
[10:12] <illriginal> I need to set permissions on my USB Drive
[10:12] <Yetiamchosen> illriginal, just type "su".
[10:12] <Yetiamchosen> or "su root".
[10:12] <purpzey> lilacor: Ok. I am all set with my backup then
[10:12] <illriginal> woohooo
[10:12] <Jordan_U> illriginal, sudo
[10:12] <illriginal> thanks man
[10:12] <illriginal> su: Authentication failure
[10:12] <illriginal> Sorry.
[10:12] <Lilacor> purpzey: now you can start to edit your xorg.conf file using gedit
[10:12] <Yetiamchosen> Jordan_U, sudo doesn't get you root... nevermind...
[10:13] <Yetiamchosen> illriginal, you have to have the root password, bro.
[10:13] <Lilacor> Yetiamchosen: puhahahahahahaha!
[10:13] <illriginal> i know the root password
[10:13] <Jordan_U> !sudo | illriginal
[10:13] <ubotu> illriginal: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:13] <illriginal> i put my password in
[10:13] <illriginal> and it wont accept it.
[10:13] <ismailmf> its sudo su
[10:13] <Jordan_U> illriginal, Use sudo -s
[10:13] <illriginal> sudo su
[10:13] <Lilacor> illriginal: try 'sudo -s'
[10:13] <illriginal> lol
[10:14] <illriginal> there we go]
[10:14] <purpzey> Lilacor: I am pretty sure I know what happened...just not precisely...I am not sure if I was trying to access either a wrong driver or assigning it to the wrong device....I had started out with a cat /dev...and identified the touchpad as mouse2...but, that didn't work out so well, is there some step I missed?
[10:14] <Ayabara> anyone know of a media library application for ubuntu? one that can scan my music, video and image folders, give me search capabilities and let me launch stuff in my favorite players?
[10:14] <illriginal> thanks a lot Jordan_U and Lilacor
[10:14] <gluttony> what partition do my applications install to?
[10:14] <dkkong> Why doesn't the printers wizard see a USB printer?
[10:14] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, to auto-connect to a bluetooth device at startup, you want to add the following line to /etc/default/bluetooth for each device you have. "HIDD_OPTIONS="--master --connect <BLUETOOTH_ADDRESS> --server" under the heading section of "############ HIDD"
[10:14] <bruenig> gluttony, most applications install in /usr so whatever partition /usr is on
[10:14] <Lilacor> purpzey: welp... first of all, your touchpad is working right now, yes?
[10:15] <purpzey> Lilacor: Yes, I just can't adjust the sensitivity or anything, at least using the GUI....Although my settings seem to be affecting that small "scroll area" on the righthand side.
[10:15] <gluttony> bruenig: can that be changed?
[10:15] <bruenig> gluttony, no
[10:16] <hannhimhe> What command-line texteditors come with Ubuntu?
[10:16] <bruenig> gluttony, you can put /usr on a different partition if you like
[10:16] <the_phoenix_ris1> is there support for widescreen monitors?
[10:16] <bruenig> hannhimhe, nano vim
[10:16] <jrib> hannhimhe: nano, vi
[10:17] <purpzey> Lilacor: I even found a FAQ/Guide that addressed this particular issue...but when I tried to implement those steps...That's when I ran into the problem
[10:17] <Jordan_U> the_phoenix_ris1, Yes
[10:17] <GeekChick|> hannhimhe, nano, and vim
[10:17] <Lilacor> purpzey: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Synaptics_Touchpad
[10:17] <purpzey> Lilacor: That was precisely what I was looking at.
[10:17] <hannhimhe> GeekChick|. Thank you.
[10:18] <Jordan_U> the_phoenix_ris1, If you are not getting the correct resolution you likely need to install the drivers for your GFX card, what kind of card do you have?
[10:18] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| thx....wont be that necessary though... its a cellphone so its limited how much im gonna use the connecting. but thx anyway.... i just really can't see why there isn't a nice GUI or something... like bluesoleil which unfortunately is only for windows.
[10:18] <GeekChick|> hannhimhe, jrib  and others answered before me.
[10:18] <the_phoenix_ris1> jordon_U > nvidia 7600 GS
[10:18] <blackjackel> hey DBO ?
[10:18] <ttjl_> Trying to install twonky but get told i dont have permission to create folder-HELP
[10:18] <ttjl_> 1
[10:18] <morghot> hi all
[10:18] <Jordan_U> the_phoenix_ris1, Go to System -> Administration -> Restricted driver manager
[10:18] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, there are, I know KDE has one, but ive just found them useless entirely for my bluetooth mouse, my bluetooth phone, and other devices.
[10:18] <bruenig> ttjl_, sudo it
[10:18] <rainrunner87> Hi all
[10:19] <purpzey>  Lilacor: Perhaps I missed a step or something, should I just start over from the top?
[10:19] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, i think there is one called gnome-bluetooth
[10:19] <ttjl_> bruenig, this may seem dense but how do i sudo it, i do cd desktop then sudo and the full file name but it says invalid command
[10:19] <bruenig> ttjl_, what are you doing exactly?
[10:19] <GeekChick|> but its only for file transfers, and doesnt work well in my experience
[10:19] <wimdows> right - I'm gonna have to get myself a LAN printer server box, as I can't get my XP clients to print to my Ubuntu server
[10:19] <rainrunner87> Got an interesting problem.  When I lock my screen, or engage the screensaver, sometimes I get logged out
[10:19] <the_phoenix_ris1> jordan_u done that and i have nvidia accelerated graphics driver
[10:19] <ttjl_> bruenig, trying to install twonky media server
[10:20] <rainrunner87> I'm running Feisty with Beryl
[10:20] <bruenig> ttjl_, do you know how to do that?
[10:20] <rfcompte> hi
[10:20] <ttjl_> bruenig, no i dont
[10:20] <Nick_W> hi, anyone know how to test that shm is working correctly? I have graphics card issues and think that could be the problem...
[10:20] <bruenig> ttjl_, as in have you read the documentation or whatever else exists that tells you. Is there an INSTALL file or a README
[10:21] <ttjl_> bruenig, yes it is the install file im trying to execute. The documentation says just double click after making the file executable
[10:21] <rfcompte> i'm new to linux and i don't know how to be root to upgrade the clamav
[10:21] <Lilacor> purpzey: frankly, I have a very slow touchpad also so I just bought myself a wireless mouse
[10:21] <Jordan_U> the_phoenix_ris1, Ok, if that doesn't work try running: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:21] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| think i tried that one.... or. i didn't actually cause i dont think i ever got working
[10:21] <Lilacor> purpzey: the touchpad annoys me
[10:21] <corunum> hi, somebody has a card ati x800?
[10:21] <ttjl_> bruenig, but it tells me i dont have permission grr
[10:21] <artabrahao> what program I use to access remote desktop from windows?
[10:21] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, yah. well wireless of any sort on linux can be a mess.
[10:21] <Lilacor> artabrahao: VNC
[10:21] <Frogzoo> corunum: fglrx for you
[10:21] <starz> artabrahao, access a windows box from linux or linux box from windows?
[10:21] <Jordan_U> the_phoenix_ris1, Then restart X after choosing the correct resolutions / refresh rate
[10:21] <Ruzqarin_oqlu> s.a.
[10:21] <Ruzqarin_oqlu> bura ne ayak ble
[10:21] <bruenig> ttjl_, by INSTALL file I mean a text file literally called "INSTALL" but ok, it says to make a particular file executable, what is the name of that file?
[10:22] <purpzey> Lilacor: Fair enough....One last thing, and again, thanks for everything...really. If I get back into that problem, what is the command to delete the messed up xorg and rename the backup so I can restart?
[10:22] <Ruzqarin_oqlu> keas la :D
[10:22] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, i barely got WPA working with my Intel PROSet 3945 ABG wireless card, and its the most used wireless networkign card in the world right now.
[10:22] <blackjackel> how do I display the user list in Xchat?
[10:22] <FBSoulMan> I just installed Ubuntu server 7.04 i386 and now I want to install additional packages.  apt-get is asking for the CD.  I'd rather get from internet.  how do I configure that?
[10:22] <Lilacor> purpzey: you don't have to delete the messed up xorg.conf
[10:22] <ttjl_> bruenig, twonkymedia-i386-glib-2.2.5.sh
[10:22] <bruenig> blackjackel, it is sometimes tucked in on the right, pull it out with the mouse
[10:22] <starz> artabrahao, access a windows box from linux or linux box from windows?
[10:22] <Lilacor> purpzey: you can just copy over it with your "safe" xorg.conf you saved
[10:22] <blackjackel> bruenig: ah, there it goes, that hidden bugger
[10:22] <bruenig> ttjl_, ok cd into the directory with that and do this: chmod +x twonkymedia-i386-glib-2.2.5.sh && ./twonkymedia-i386-glib-2.2.5.sh
[10:23] <GeekChick|> blackjackel,  settings -> preferences -> userlist
[10:23] <blackjackel> bruenig: thanks :)
[10:23] <Frogzoo> !ati | corunum
[10:23] <ubotu> corunum: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:23] <Jordan_U> FBSoulMan, Remove the CD from your sources with System -> Administration -> Software sources or in your sources.list
 linux server from windows
[10:23] <purpzey> Lila: so simple copy /etc/X11/xorgbackup.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[10:23] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| bollocks... now it says 'Can't get device information: Success'  ....whats with that?!?! hehe.. i didn't have any trouble with my wifi, wierd enough... it worked like a charm from day one
[10:23] <rainrunner87> GeekChick: If I remember correctly, Intel PROSet cards use Broadcom chipsets, which are widely regarded as evil and have had support trouble for years
[10:23] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, WPA, or WEP?
[10:23] <Jin> How gooed is ubuntu amd64? Does it worth the time  installing it? any performance increase ?
[10:23] <purpzey> Lilacor: Sudo, of course.
[10:23] <zoidberg> guys i have a problem
[10:23] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| when i try the connect command that is.... and i use wpa
[10:23] <Lilacor> rainrunner87: PROSetcards use Intel chipsets
[10:23] <Tonio_O> blackjackel: click on the button besides (left) your taxt area
[10:23] <ttjl_> bruenig, one second
[10:23] <Lilacor> purpzey: yes
[10:24] <zoidberg> for some reason since yesterday i dont hear any sounds in ubuntu fesity
[10:24] <starz> ah
[10:24] <Lilacor> purpzey: unless you're using a root console
[10:24] <zoidberg> it was working fine before
[10:24] <starz> artabrahao, one sec there is a great guide
[10:24] <rainrunner87> Lilacor: Hmm... I've been wrong before, guess I am again.
[10:24] <purpzey> Lilacor: Thanks a lot, you have been a great help.
[10:24] <wam> Jin: yes, as long as you don't rely on proprietary softwares/drivers
[10:24] <Lilacor> purpzey: you're welcome
[10:24] <zoidberg> can anybody help me
[10:24] <zoidberg> ?
[10:24] <starz> do you want to access an X session that is already running? or run a new one? and yes vnc is what you need.. --- personally i like tightvnc
[10:24] <Jin> wam, I actually do rely on those software
[10:24] <Lilacor> zoidberg: what did you change since then?
[10:24] <zoidberg> Lilacor, nothing
