[00:00] <toastedmilk> fosco_, what the ipod 'type' is and 'device' is
[00:00] <norty> ghindo: I tried to follow that but it doesn't help when the upgrade button isn't showing up
[00:00] <imachine> 't need nor want it to do so
[00:00] <toastedmilk> fosco_, I know the dir I want it in
[00:00] <Kl4m> ekontsevoy: I had that kind of problem only a couple of hours ago, you will have to modifiy /etc/network/interfaces to add your new card I think
[00:00] <fosco_> toastedmilk: type is vfat, and device is shown with sudo fdisk -l, mostly sure /dev/sdb1 or something similar
[00:00] <kevin_> can any1 help me about a crash problem? =w=
[00:01] <faryshta> Someone knows how to install Frostwire or Limewire using OpenJDK?
[00:01] <zsircusr> whoever suggested pressing spacebar after switching users, that didnt work
[00:01] <Kl4m> ekontsevoy: also check if it's in the file named like : /etc/udev/rules.d/70- (...) net (...)
[00:01] <ekontsevoy> Kl4m: you're right! how come I didn't think of it...
[00:01] <toastedmilk> fosco_, Oh!, so <device> is a path!
[00:01] <toastedmilk> fosco_, thank you sir
[00:01] <ghindo>  norty:  In "Software Sources," under the "Updates" tab, what do you see under "Release Upgrade"?
[00:01] <jthurman> Hi everyone.  I upgraded a 6.10 machine to 7.04, and now it locks up while booting.  One problem that I have solved is the format change in /etc/event.d, but another problem has me stumped: During startup, when kernel modules are loaded, it complains that the /lib/modules/2.6.17-12-generic directory doesn't exist.  In fact, it does.
[00:02] <jthurman> Then it finally hangs on Begin: Warigin for root file system... with the message ALERT! /dev/hda1 does not exist.  and drops into ash.
[00:02] <detrate> Any dual monitor compiz people's around?
[00:02] <MrCollins> Did anyone see my post ^^^^
[00:03] <zsquareplusc> jthurman: i think that was the release where all hdd names where migrated from hdX do sdX
[00:03] <jthurman> I can mount /dev/hda1, so it clearly does exist.
[00:03] <joeb3_> MrCollins, did not see the original post
[00:03] <toastedmilk> sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdf /media/disk/
[00:03] <toastedmilk> mount: mount point /media/disk/ does not exist
[00:03] <erUSUL> MrCollins: you can use gpartd from the livecd to resize the partition before installing... make sure you defragment the ntfs parition in windows first
[00:03] <toastedmilk> fosco_, it's not working
[00:04] <fosco_> toastedmilk: pasta sudo fdisk -l in pastebin.com, then give me the link
[00:04] <norty> ghindo: lol I checked everything and now it says i have 221 updates, thanks!
[00:04] <ekontsevoy> Kl4m: are you running multi-homed server now? I don't quite understand how that works...
[00:04] <fosco_> *paste
[00:04] <jthurman> zsquareplusc: I'll try changing that in the grub config and see what happens.
[00:04] <ghindo> norty: You're welcome.  What was the problem?
[00:04] <MrCollins> erUSUL: I can not get into windows right now... I am installing ubuntu to lifeboat me until I get another HD to copy my data over, format and do a full ubuntu install
[00:05] <zsquareplusc> jthurman: you could change it when booting, no need to edit menu.lst. just press e at the menu
[00:05] <jthurman> True. :)
[00:05] <zsquareplusc> jthurman: that wont save it but its good enough for a try
[00:05] <NoIdeaMan> Anyone have BUFFALO Wireless-G USB 2.0 Keychain Adapter with Auto Installation?
[00:05] <obf213> any ideas on the clock? also the ntp options are no longer visible although i see the package is installed? where are they hiding all the features?
[00:05] <ekontsevoy> When my machine has two Ethernet cars (and 2 IP addresses) how does it determine which card/IP to use for commands like apt-get, wget, ftp, ssh, etc?
[00:05] <Kl4m> ekontsevoy: no, I just transfered a physical machine into vmware and I had to make it detect the virtual card. I cleared the file 70-something in rules.d and added the card in /etc/network/interfaces
[00:05] <zsquareplusc> ekontsevoy: see "route"
[00:05] <Kl4m> ekontsevoy: and restarted udev and networking
[00:06] <NoIdeaMan> Can i download software for windows and use WINE to use it on Ubuntu?
[00:06] <ekontsevoy> Kl4m: yeah, I have it up, but need to figure out how to re-route it...
[00:06] <toastedmilk> fosco_, http://paste-bin.com/view/76f17920
[00:06] <ekontsevoy> zsquareplusc: thanks, wil do!
[00:06] <Kl4m> yes, route
[00:07] <jthurman> Still seing the "Couldn't open directory /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic: No such file or directory."
[00:07] <NoIdeaMan> Can i download software for windows and use WINE to use it on Ubuntu?
[00:07] <fosco_> toastedmilk: device is /dev/sdf but linux can not read its partition table, maybe it is not supported
[00:07] <kevin__> hi?
[00:07] <jthurman> Hmm... I just realized something.  Is it odd that the 17-12 kernel is trying to open the 10-17 modules directory?
[00:07] <obf213> NoIdeaMan, yes that is the point of Wine.....
[00:08] <NoIdeaMan> i mean all software
[00:08] <zsquareplusc> fosco_: some memory sticks are formated without partition table, if thats what you're wondering about
[00:08] <kevin__> can some1 help me on kdenlive crash? ._.
[00:08] <obf213> NoIdeaMan, no....
[00:08] <MrCollins> gparted will not let me resize my ntfs partition
[00:08] <jthurman> 17-10, I mean
[00:08] <obf213> NoIdeaMan, you'll have to try and see what works....some things work well some don't
[00:09] <NoIdeaMan> would i work with http://www.buffalotech.com/technology/our-technology/client-manager-3/  Someone please try before i switch OS
[00:09] <toastedmilk> fosco_, I know for a fact it's supported.  I've been using it.  What happened is I changed the mount point from /media/disk to /mnt/ipod as amarok insisted, and now I get the following error message in nautilis: 'unable to mount volume: mount_point cannot contain the following: newline, G_DIR_SEPARATOR(/)
[00:09] <kevin__> can some1 help me on a crash problem? =w=
[00:09] <Gnea> MrCollins: you need to have ntfsprogs installed
[00:09] <Gnea> !ask | kevin__
[00:09] <Sake> how do I find out the file encoding of a file? I tried file --mime {file} but that just gives me text/html, not the encoding
[00:09] <zsquareplusc> jthurman: that is strange. the kernel should access the directory that matches its version. is initrd and kernel in grub not matching?
[00:10] <faryshta> Someone knows how to install Frostwire or Limewire using OpenJDK?
[00:10] <fosco_> toastedmilk: make sure  /mnt/ipod exists, if not, just create it
[00:10] <jthurman> Filenames match, in any case.
[00:10] <zsquareplusc> Sake: depends on what you're interested in.. "file" analyses file contents
[00:10] <toastedmilk> fosco_, in terminal: mkdir PATH ?
[00:10] <jthurman> vmlinuz-2.6.17-12-generic and initrd.img-2.6.17-12-generic
[00:10] <MHz128> Is it possible to simultaneously connect to 2 different wireless AP's (with 2 cards) and download different files per connection? perhaps using VM?
[00:10] <Sake> zsquareplusc, I want to know what the text encoding of the file is.
[00:10] <kevin__> anyone know how to fix kdenlive crash problem?
[00:11] <fosco_> sudo mkdir /mnt ; sudo mkdir /mnt/ipod

[00:11] <altay> My virtual consoles (Ctrl+Alt+F1-F6) haven't been working since I installed 8.10. I can switch to them, but my screen is either completely black or flashing different colored bars. Any ideas?
[00:11] <Sake> zsquareplusc, basically utf-8 or iso-8859-1
[00:11] <toastedmilk> fosco_, mnt already exists in ubuntu
[00:11] <zsquareplusc> Sake: i dont think that there is an unversal way. to do that. UTF encoded files may have a marker but old codepage based once is just guessing
[00:11] <Gnea> kevin__: you might get a better response in #kubuntu
[00:11] <toastedmilk> fosco_, and it still isn't working
[00:12] <NoIdeaMan> would wine work with http://www.buffalotech.com/technology/our-technology/client-manager-3/  Someone please try before i switch OS
[00:12] <zsquareplusc> Sake: open with an editor that can change the encoding :-)  gedit tries to guess the encoding to
[00:12] <ghindo> Hi, I'm getting some weird error on boot.  It says "Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 0"  I can still boot into Ubuntu just fine, but the error is worrisome.  Does anybody know what's happening here?
[00:13] <Gnea> ghindo: are you able to read cds or dvds just fine?
[00:13] <toastedmilk> fosco_, http://paste-bin.com/view/fcfac886
[00:13] <MrCollins> Gnea: I have ntfsprogs installed
[00:13] <zsquareplusc> ghindo: sr0 is likely to be your CD/DVD drive
[00:13] <NoIdeaMan> would wine work with http://www.buffalotech.com/technology/our-technology/client-manager-3/  Someone please try before i switch OS
[00:13] <Sake> zsquareplusc, good advice, I just forced gedit to make it iso-8895-1, works like a charm
[00:13] <ghindo> Gnea: Yeah, I'm playing an audio CD right now and everything seems fine.
[00:14] <fosco_> toastedmilk: sfd1 maybe, but if fdisk -l can't see it...
[00:14] <kornejo> hi can some one help me
[00:14] <Gnea> MrCollins: check these out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=96617 and http://www.nishants.net/articles/ntfsresize.htm
[00:14] <zsquareplusc> NoIdeaMan: looks like a software that "talks" to the window drivers. i dont think that runs. but you can use windows drivers with ndiswrapper
[00:14] <n8tuser> !ask | kornejo
[00:14] <Gnea> ghindo: what about data? movies? writing disks?
[00:14] <Gnea> ghindo: if all of those work just fine, it's probably nothing to worry about
[00:14] <NoIdeaMan> omg
[00:15] <jthurman> Yeah, changing to root=/dev/sda1 doesn't make a difference.
[00:15] <ghindo> Gnea: I'm not sure if anything else doesn't work.  I won't worry about it for now I guess, if it isn't anything too serious.
[00:15] <toastedmilk> fosco_, what?
[00:15] <toastedmilk> fosco_, did you read my new paste
[00:16] <fosco_> toastedmilk: yes, try sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdf1 /mnt/ipod
[00:16] <Nikke> Hey if i have compiz in xubuntu my panel get this opacity

[00:16] <Nikke> how do disable that

[00:17] <toastedmilk> fosco_, are you sure it's a vfat drive?

[00:18] <altay> My virtual consoles (Ctrl+Alt+F1-F6) haven't been working since I installed 8.10. I can switch to them, but my screen is either completely black or flashing different colored bars.   It was working fine before I redirected the mount point

[00:19] <Rooty> Hi, I can't resize a partition on a second (internal) hard-drive with GParted. There is a lock in the /sdb1 line. How do I change this? (am sudoing)
[00:19] <jthurman> Hmm... The plot thickens.  The kernel version for 7.04 should be 2.6.20, not 2.6.17.  It's beginning to look like the kernel simply didn't update.
[00:19] <fosco_> Rooty: unmount it first
[00:20] <SpAc> when partitioning using LVM is it good practise to leave free space in the volume group? I read that it can be a bad idea to shrink logical volumes and could lead to data loss
[00:20] <fosco_> toastedmilk: sorry man, i know no more
[00:20] <komputes> zsquareplusc: so if i have a device that disconnects constantly, running hcidump (while or after??) will assist developers in understanding why the crash happened
[00:20] <prietas_con_nuec> anyone can tell me how good or how bad is the msi wind ?? ? ?
[00:20] <Rooty> fosco_ Thanks! am doing

[00:22] <LoveGuru> well i want to use xchat but i dont have Xserver running. i have to install X server to run xchat? or is there any chat software i can use on terminal ?
[00:22] <nintendork45> LoveGeru: you dont need xserver for xchat but irssi is command line
[00:22] <komputes> zsquareplusc: no i mean reporting a bug to launchpad
[00:22] <NoIdeaMan> Anybody have an idea for my question?
[00:22] <nintendork45> LoveGuru: i suggest xchat
[00:22] <LoveGuru> nintendork45: i install xchat .. but how can i run that application?
[00:23] <toastedmilk> fosco_, mark@ToastedMilk:~$ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/ipod
[00:23] <toastedmilk> mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /mnt/ipod busy
[00:23] <nintendork45> LoveGuru: in a terminal type xchat
[00:23] <toastedmilk> fosco_, in the fdisk -1 post there is also directory dev/sda
[00:23] <fosco_> toastedmilk: sda is your hard disk, don not try that
[00:23] <LoveGuru> when i type xchat it gave me error " xchat:15192: Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[00:23] <komputes> zsquareplusc: so i run it in the background while i'm working with the bluetooth device until it disconnects?
[00:23] <zsquareplusc> nintendork45: always a new nick? ;-) did you try to explore at the grub prompt (the grub that boots)? it may be that the live cd shifted the names so it also may be hd2,0 or the drives were swapped on boot so 't may be hd0,0 ..$
[00:24] <altay> My virtual consoles (Ctrl+Alt+F1-F6) haven't been working since I installed 8.10. I can switch to them, but my screen is either completely black or flashing different colored bars. Any ideas?

[00:24] <Silv3rBull3t> toastedmilk: does "mount" show that it is indeed mounted?
[00:24] <nintendork45> zsquareplusc: XP boots fine though
[00:25] <zsquareplusc> komputes: yes, run while using the device. but i wouldn't post large logs unless they ask you about them. also notive that the logs can contain data that was exchanged
[00:25] <nintendork45> zsquareplusc: i have a new nick because i couldnt identify for 87 for some reason :\
[00:25] <komputes> zsquareplusc: thanks for the help and the warning
[00:25] <toastedmilk> Silv3rBull3t, no, it isn't mounted.

[00:38] <Skry^> Guest86007, yes it is. try typing burn and use tab, there are several versions.
[00:39] <SpAc> is there a reason to have swap in its own logical volume group?
[00:39] <toastedmilk> Silv3rBull3t, whoa, how lucky is that
[00:39] <toastedmilk> Silv3rBull3t, thanks man!
[00:39] <Silv3rBull3t> toastedmilk: it worked?
[00:40] <Anacranom> mememe, ;-) i think you are gonna need one of the better scripting ppl here, i've just seen a few come in since your post,,, give a few minutes and hit up arrow and post again, after a few 5-10 min...

[00:43] <zsquareplusc> nintendork32: could you paste the menu.lst too?
[00:43] <avri210984> i have a problem with apache's log files anyone can help?
[00:44] <zsquareplusc> avri210984: we can try. but the experts are in #apache
[00:44] <avri210984> oh great thanks for the info
[00:44] <Silv3rBull3t> Beererde: dpkg --purge <package>
[00:44] <Jed_84> hello everyone
[00:44] <NoIdeaMan> zsquareplusc
[00:44] <Jed_84> does ubuntu 7.10 support ntfs writing?
[00:45] <NoIdeaMan> how do i know my network key?
[00:45] <Anacranom> zsquareplusc, i think 45 quit, 32 is still logged into my channel
[00:45] <mememe> ok i used  the instructions on this site http://www.tommcfarlin.com/2008/07/11/ubuntu-on-the-eee-pc-900/ and i removed four lines of text when i think i shouldnt of and i havent backed up then i got told to use this script to fix this mistake sudo aptitude reinstall initscripts but when i go back to the gedit halt i still cant see the lines i deleted
[00:45] <LoveGuru> i just install "package" i just wanna see that at which path that package install can i?
[00:45] <zsquareplusc> NoIdeaMan: the network key WEP, WPA whatever, should be set in your wireless router
[00:45] <Beererde> Silv3rBull3t: same error
[00:46] <NoIdeaMan> How do i access it to find out what it is?
[00:46] <dominic_> how can i make my eeepc faster with 8.04.1
[00:46] <dominic_> can i make ubuntu faster on the eee
[00:46] <zsquareplusc> NoIdeaMan: do you have an other computer that can get to its web interface? or ask the one that set up the router
[00:46] <Silv3rBull3t> Beererde: is it running? ps -A | grep <package>
[00:46] <Dr_willis> dominic_,  thers that eee-ubuntu variant. that may help. But ive not used it.
[00:46] <Beererde> Silv3rBull3t: no...
[00:47] <Beererde> Silv3rBull3t: the apt-get -f seems just to do the dpkg --purge
[00:47] <dominic_> i have tat
[00:47] <NoIdeaMan> how would i get to its web interface ( im pretty sure i have before)
[00:47] <dominic_> should i ove4rclock it
[00:47] <toastedmilk> whats the default mount_point value for the hdd in gconf-editor for 8.04?
[00:47] <zsquareplusc> dominic_: remove all the services you dont need system->admin disable trackerd
[00:47] <Beererde> Silv3rBull3t: i just want to clean it from the database, without seeing if it really is "removed".. cant apt-get do that?
[00:48] <shawn_> can i resume from hibernate with a swap in lvm?
[00:49] <zsquareplusc> shawn_: can you boot from a partition in lvm? i think then it could work
[00:49] <Tyrath> if I wanted to get a log of boot how would I go about this?
[00:50] <zsquareplusc> booting from lvm partition works. ive done that. just /boot had to be accessible on a non lvm drive
[00:50] <SpAc> does anyone have anything against using reiserfs?
[00:50] <shawn_> but the lvm is a swap partition
[00:50] <Silv3rBull3t> Beererde: apt-get clean
[00:50] <Tyrath> is there a boot log?
[00:50] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: dmesg has some messages. you look for something else?
[00:50] <shawn_> and i tried to do resume=/dev/sda5 or whatever nd it didnt wok
[00:50] <KillerOrca> hi, I just had a system freeze and I did the raise skinny elephants, now the screen resolion was changed and now I can't change it back
[00:51] <NoIdeaMan> zsquareplusc:how would i get to its web interface ( im pretty sure i have before)
[00:51] <toastedmilk> Can someone help me with mount_point values for gconf-editor for the hdd and the ipod?
[00:51] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: i'm trying to figure out why my system hangs on boot
[00:51] <Anacranom> mememe, btw, after you removed the lines of text,,, did you save?
[00:51] <mememe> yes
[00:51] <Jason_CO> can someone please tell me why console-kit-daemon is eating up 50% of my proceser time? over extended periods?
[00:51] <Beererde> Silv3rBull3t: it thinks the "linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-16-generic" packages are installed, so won't clean them
[00:52] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: remove quiet and spash from the boot options e.g. in the grub menu at boot. type "e" and edit the kernel params
[00:52] <Tyrath> ok next time i run something like dmesg someone tell me to pipe it through something. i didn't realise it was sooo big :P
[00:52] <Anacranom> mememe, i'm not great at this, but gimmie a few to look at it more,,,
[00:52] <nw2190> Hi, how do you disable the login sound on ubuntu 8.10?  You used to just be able to uncheck the box in System > Preferences > Sound, but that's not working.
[00:52] <mememe> ok
[00:52] <zsquareplusc> NoIdeaMan: depends on your router. usually they have a web interface that can be opened with a web browser on the wired ethernet connection. but you need to know the APs IP number
[00:53] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: what's quiet?
[00:53] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: its a kernel parameter that tells it to not output many messages. without it, it will print a lot of messages
[00:54] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: ah k
[00:54] <rdvonz> Hello, I'm having trouble with port forwarding via my linux box, I can't seem to find the right ip address to map the port too.

[00:55] <_cb> ?
[00:55] <ConstantineXVI> _cb: System -> About Ubuntu
[00:55] <zsquareplusc> NoIdeaMan: yes, that should help using the windows drivers in your linux installation
[00:55] <nikrud> _cb, usb_release -a is another method
[00:56] <NoIdeaMan> yay
[00:56] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: ok looking at dmesg doesn't help me. there's no visible error messages I can see. should I pastebin it and send you the link?
[00:56] <rdvonz> it's very basic portforwarding, I just can't seem to get it to work with my router / ubuntu

[00:56] <nikrud> _cb, erm, lsb_release that is
[00:56] <NoIdeaMan> Where do i find the .inf file though? Windows XP
[00:56] <ConstantineXVI> mdmkolbe: probably #xorg
[00:56] <_cb> I am hardy ;)
[00:57] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: you say it hangs, but it then contnues? dmesg only contains mssages from the current boot

[00:57] <Anacranom> IndyGunFreak, you around, do you know C++ at all, need some help with a code edit to get ubuntu to shut down correctly?
[00:57] <KillerOrca> hi, I just had a system freeze and I did the raise skinny elephants, now the screen resolion was changed and now I can't change it back

[00:58] <carpii> vock, prolly easiest to just hit whatismyip.com
[00:58] <NoIdeaMan> Where do i find the .inf file though? Windows XP
[00:58] <ConstantineXVI> vock: clamav's the only reav anti-virus app out there
[00:58] <Silv3rBull3t> Beererde: My ISP is having problems--- did the package cleanly install, just not uninstall?
[00:58] <rdvonz> nikrud: which one is it though, I have a couple that show 192.168.225 which doesn't work and some others...
[00:58] <carpii> 192.168 isnt an outgoing ip though
[00:58] <rdvonz> carpii: whatever it's called. :P

[00:59] <carpii> ifconfig sorry
[00:59] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: yes it would eb easier with a link :-)
[00:59] <ConstantineXVI> carpii: or even better, "ifconfig eth0"

[01:05] <StevenX> I'm having trouble with my system. After starting up the computer from hibernation, I can't get a wireless connection until I restart the system (kind of negating my reason for not shutting it down in the first place). What can I do next time this happens?
[01:05] <King_Bob> im scared of becky taylor lol
[01:05] <zsquareplusc> LoveGuru: like dpkg -L <packagename> ?
[01:05] <BlueEagle> Is it a bug or a feature that postgrey resets the counter on an early-retry?
[01:06] <Anacranom> NoIdeaMan, ini is a system file, inf is a driver file
[01:06] <AzMoo> heh, ubuntu jeos + latest vmware workstation tools = kernel fail.
[01:06] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: well, that seems to be the problem. it tries to bring up the wireless network an that seems to take a lot of time
[01:06] <NoIdeaMan> Anacranom: Can you help me find out the .inf for....
[01:06] <BlueEagle> AzMoo: which kernel fail?

[01:06] <AzMoo> BlueEagle: hang on, I'll just restart and find out.
[01:07] <BlueEagle> AzMoo: Use a kernel suitable for your system?
[01:07] <AzMoo> BlueEagle: It's supposed to be designed for the system.
[01:07] <Arenlor> Hello, anyone know of an MSPaint type of program?
[01:07] <Anacranom> NoIdeaMan, have you looked at compatibility here?  http://linux-wless.passys.nl/
[01:07] <zsquareplusc> Arenlor: tuxpaint? but i alwas use gimp
[01:07] <comradekingu> Arenlor: krita?
[01:08] <NoIdeaMan> Arenlor: Ubuntu has GIMP
[01:08] <BlueEagle> AzMoo: imo the server kernel is broken. Try installing the generic kernel.
[01:08] <King_Bob> Arenlor , GNU paint ?
[01:08] <Arenlor> I know it has GIMP, I was looking for something much simpler though
[01:08] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: anyway to make that faster?
[01:08] <NoIdeaMan> Anacranom: How do I know chipset?
[01:09] <BlueEagle> NoIdeaMan: lspci
[01:09] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: enable it later ;-) let the network manager take care of it. but i dont know how to do that w/o logging in
[01:09] <comradekingu> I think i have a PCMCIA Buffalo wireless g
[01:09] <comradekingu> It worked out of the box
[01:09] <NoIdeaMan> BlueEagle: Which is.... Sorry IDK much about wireless stuff.
[01:10] <AzMoo> BlueEagle: Yeah, it seems to be. This annoys me though. They keep claiming that JeOS fully works on Workstation and ESX, and yet the last two releases have had major issues. eg, there's no way the last release of JeOS could work on ESX without SCSI drivers, so it clearly wasn't even tested.
[01:10] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: I still have to log in via console. it's just if i don't have wlan0 in interfaces i can't log in without fireup gnome-desktop
[01:10] <NoIdeaMan> comradekingu: Can You check full name?
[01:10] <Anacranom> NoIdeaMan, try lshw -C network
[01:10] <comradekingu> Not now, I installed it for someone else
[01:11] <comradekingu> NoldeaManWhat is it you wanted to know?
[01:11] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: the network manager itself should not depend on the gnome gui. but i have not looked at it in detail.
[01:11] <comradekingu> NoldeaMan: What is it you wanted to know?
[01:11] <faryshta> Someone knows how to install Frostwire or Limewire using OpenJDK?
[01:11] <NoIdeaMan> Anacranom: On Windows XP right now
[01:11] <NoIdeaMan> comradekingu: Can You check full name of wireless thing?

[01:13] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: it's just others do what i do with the interfaces file. if I killed quiet in /boot/grub/menu.lst would that allow me to see what's going on?
[01:13] <zsquareplusc> pan: on of the drivers was moved to the linux extras or whatever its name is package

[01:14] <hml> how can i disable my mice in X? I'd like to have some option for mouse = none
[01:14] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: surely they wouldn't be having the same problem, unless they use wired instead of wireess
[01:14] <comradekingu> NoldeaMan: No, its not USB
[01:14] <Tyrath> zsquareplusc: is that the way you have it?
[01:14] <hml> how can i disable my mice in X? I'd like to have some option for mouse = none (I realize this sounds weird; but i'm trying to figure out i fmy keyboard only window manager + vimperator for mozilla works)
[01:15] <zsquareplusc> Tyrath: it may work to start up fast. but in your case it has delays (the numbers in the 1st column of the log is the time). maybe you have a weak signal

[01:20] <kornejo> yes
[01:20] <gurft> doh, two questions, 1 answer ;)
[01:20] <kornejo> no how do i c that
[01:20] <benzss> is there a program for linux like 3dmark on windows
[01:21] <Pelo> kornejo, type the nick of the person you are talking to when you answer,  now answer the two quesitons again
[01:21] <zsquareplusc> kornejo: does the web cam have a light that's on when it is active? is it lighting when accessing the cam? (green sounds like it might be the wrong video device)

But my computers don't see internet, only each other...
[01:21] <ekontsevoy> This, of course, isn't Ubuntu-related, but as close as I can get :)
[01:21] <DarkKnight> NoelJB, zsquareplusc, comradekingu; the fact is just a few days back i heard the audio...but now both my speakers and headphones give the same output;;
[01:21] <DavidCanarias> Hi everyone. Can someone please help me with my download for Ubuntu 8.10 before I burn to CD. I understand you have to verify it first to ensure no failures in the download. There is a way to do this, but reading everything I just don't understand where to start. Any offers plse?
[01:21] <amirman> can anyone help me find documentation on how to manually add fglrx to xorg.conf? i've been searching ubuntu's page and google to no avail. help would be appreciated.
[01:21] <kornejo> yes that light is on everytime
[01:21] <DarkKnight> ubottu
[01:22] <faryshta> !fglrx
[01:22] <DarkKnight> !ubottu
[01:22] <roe__> amirman do you have everything else configured?
[01:22] <Pelo> ekontsevoy, check your at& t modem/router settings see if you can switch it to bridge mode, that way it only works as a modem, and you can plug your router in
[01:22] <Pelo> ekontsevoy,  and you are right , this is not ubuntu related  you might want to give #networking a try , but it's probably not their thing either
[01:23] <ekontsevoy> Pelo: good keyword!
[01:23] <ekontsevoy> Thansk
[01:23]  * Pelo solves another one , without even trying
[01:24] <amirman> roes__: everything else is fine and when i use aticonfig --initial it adds fglrx just fine and everything works except my gdm is displaying at only a quarter of my screen size and it's in the top corner.
[01:24] <DavidCanarias> Before I burn my latest download I understand it must be verified first. Can anyone guide me on how to do this plse?
[01:24] <gurft> DavdCanarias:  you can confirm the md5sum is correct
[01:24] <Pelo> !checksum | DavidCanarias
[01:24] <roe__> amirman, and did you modprobe fglrx?
[01:24] <Pelo> !md5
[01:24] <zetheroo> my laptop (ThinkPad R61) has been freezing and crashing since installing Intrepid .... :(
[01:24] <amirman> DavidCanarias: what OS are you currently using?
[01:24] <DavidCanarias> gurft: Thks you are right, but I just dont know where to start
[01:25] <DavidCanarias> Pelo: thks for yr help but what does this mean
[01:25] <amirman> roe__: i know fglrx is running, it's the only 3d accelerator i have and compiz is running smoothly as expected
[01:25] <gurft> zetheroo:  ACPI may be borked.  I fought for a few weeks on an R61 then work gave me a T61.....
[01:25] <Pelo> DavidCanarias, check in the links ubottu gave you , there is a howto on doing what you want
[01:25] <Pelo> !md5 | DavidCanarias
[01:25] <DavidCanarias> amirman: Ubuntu Hardy 8.01 desktop
[01:25] <roe__> if compiz is already using fglrx then it is already in your xorg.conf, so what more do you want to do
[01:25] <f474l31212012> #irc.2600.com
[01:25] <amirman> roe__: i'm thinking also that maybe i just need to add my resolution to xorg.conf because it's not currently in there
[01:26] <roe__> your resolution parameters have nothing to to do with fglrx
[01:26] <hargtholan> hi
[01:26] <roe__> is your resolution wrong?
[01:26] <DavidCanarias> Pelo: Thks I will do so and see if I can understand something. When I read it I didnt understand it at all.
[01:27] <amirman> DavidCanarias: check this out: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[01:27] <JonathanEllis> ikonia: The reason I ask is that when I add the BusID statement (the very first step after backing up xorg.conf) X crashes with the message         (WW) intel: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:0) found             (EE) No devices detected.
[01:27] <zetheroo> gurft: grrrrrrr .... its very frustrating ... yesterday is froze up just when I was toward the end of a lengthy letter ....
[01:28] <JonathanEllis> Has anyone else managed to setup twin screens using two different graphics adaptors?
[01:28] <amirman> roe__: fglrx is working fine, but i would rather start with a clean xorg.conf and add only what i need manually, espexially the resolution, since the resolution of the gdm is the only problem i have.
[01:28] <DavidCanarias> AMIRMAN: Thks very much. I will read both sites and see if I can understand something better.. Its just that being a newbie its highly technical!!
[01:29] <amirman> DavidCanarias: i've been there too, in many ways i'm still there
[01:29] <AzMoo> JonathanEllis: sure. What does lspci define the bus id's of your vid cards as?
[01:29] <roe__> amirman, then look at the working config, along with the man page for xorg.conf and understand each of the parameters, not sure what else to tell you.  You are wanting to understand the xorg.conf file, I can't explain it better than the combination of a working file AND the man page
[01:29] <zetheroo> gurft: is there any way to find out whats causeing the issue? ... like in WIndows XP its pretty easy to find out by looking at the log
[01:30] <DavidCanarias> amirman: Nice to know....... jejeje One never stops learning. Its just that sometimes to do things everyone assumes you are a computer expert and not all of us are! Cheers!
[01:30] <amirman> roe__: i was wondering if anyone here could lead me to some more detailed information than what's in the manpage
[01:30] <macjason0> guys .. im trying to install ubuntu to a usb drive .. on ubuntu 7 i could on ubuntu 8.10 i don't have an option to install to a flash/usb drive .. why is this ?
[01:31] <roe__> amirman, xorg.conf's man page is like 25pages  how much more detailed do you want
[01:31] <tripitakit> macjason0: u'd find in system/administration the USB flash install..
[01:32] <KillerOrca> I enabled DVD playback, but totem won't play the DVDs, VLC will though
[01:32] <EvilAIM>  frig
[01:32] <amirman> roe__: i want something with more layman's language and in depth explanations of each parameter
[01:32] <EvilAIM> I can't change my resolution via GUI
[01:32] <EvilAIM> er
[01:32] <EvilAIM> via CLI
[01:32] <zsquareplusc> EvilAIM: xrandr?
[01:32] <JonathanEllis> AzMoo: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL [Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01) and 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Cirrus Logic GD 5436 [Alpine]
[01:32] <EvilAIM> can't open display
[01:33] <amirman> EvilAIM: probably because it's not an option in xorg.conf, as soon as i learn more about how to edit the resolutions i could help you with that, but not at the moment
[01:33] <EvilAIM> *shrugs*
[01:33] <zsquareplusc> EvilAIM: you are in an other shell? then set DISPLAY=:0
[01:33] <Tyrath> is there anyway to have wireless activate when you log into a console rather then on boot, or loging into gnome?
[01:34] <EvilAIM> zsquare, didn't work
[01:34] <dick-richardson> part
[01:34] <EvilAIM> I just get a black screen
[01:34] <jerbear> anyone use denyhosts?
[01:34] <EvilAIM> right now I'm in TTY, this works ok, but the GUI is screwed:(
[01:34] <sudobash> is there wifi power management in linux that can be turned off to provide better wifi service?
[01:36] <zsquareplusc> EvilAIM: so the X server doesnt start at all?
[01:36] <x3n0> hi all! any news on fglrx working on intrepids' xorg server...?
[01:37] <EvilAIM> Well, I guess it does at login...
[01:37] <EvilAIM> and when I type: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm starts - the screen goes blank...
[01:37] <yagga> start
[01:37] <amirman> x3n0: fglrx works for my intrepid but i have a problem with gdm's resolution
[01:38] <DarkKnight> hey how do i roll back from 8.10 to 8.04
[01:38] <zetheroo> anyone know how I can find out why my laptop is freezing and crashing with Intrepid?
[01:38] <sina94> Hey. Trying to use Cheese to record video with internal webcam on Aspire One /w Kubuntu Intrepid. Can capture photos, and shows video until I hit "record"... then I get a blank screen. Returns errors in teminal.
[01:38] <zsquareplusc> !downgrade | DarkKnight
[01:38] <x3n0> hmm... well fglrx loads then fails for me so i'm using ati instead...
[01:38] <itai_michaelson> hi, can anyone help me get sound working on ibex, not sure where to begin
[01:39] <DarkKnight> zsquareplusc; i have faced enough problems with intrepid
[01:39] <x3n0> but it won't allow a high res than 800x600
[01:39] <windowsgavemeara> hoe do i make a application automaticly start when i boot up?
[01:39] <NH|Computer|Geek> put it in the startup folder
[01:39] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: a clean install of hardy is the best way
[01:39] <NoIdeaMan> hey
[01:39] <NoIdeaMan> got internet to work!
[01:39] <amirman> DarkKnight: i had some problems after upgrading, so i just installed intrepid from scratch, you may want to try that
[01:39] <zsquareplusc> !applause
[01:40] <KillerOrca> x3n0: I just had this issue, I just googled, followed a guide and rebooted
[01:40] <NoIdeaMan> wow
[01:40] <faryshta> windowsgavemeara, go Sistem->Sessions and choose them.
[01:40] <NoIdeaMan> w/o mega modding firefox its as fast as on WindowsXP
[01:40] <DarkKnight> tripitakit, airman; i have nearly 50Gb of valuable data that i don't wanna lose...how can i make it sure dat i dont lose them
[01:40] <zsquareplusc> NoIdeaMan: nice. so no reason to uninstall? :-)
[01:40] <NoIdeaMan> nope
[01:41] <hargtholan> ubuntu, very unstable...
[01:41] <itai_michaelson> my sound works on windows and in ibex its very soft -even on maximum i can hardly hear it
[01:41] <NoIdeaMan> was mad about no Internet (pretty pathetic i know)
[01:41] <hargtholan> mozilla refuse to open many times...
[01:41] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: your valuable data should be already safe in a bcakup, arent them?
[01:41] <JonathanEllis> AzMoo: Does that lspci make sense to you?
[01:41] <NoIdeaMan> How is Ubuntu unstable?
[01:41] <hargtholan> application crashes...
[01:41] <hargtholan> I hat it, I prefer Debian stable
[01:41] <amirman> x3n0: you may want to try this two commands one after the other: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg     --and then--       sudo aticonfig --initial
[01:41] <hargtholan> I cant stand it
[01:42] <NoIdeaMan> I have not had any problems
[01:42] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; how do i back up now
[01:42] <hargtholan> Pidgin MSN client? puag!
[01:42] <NoIdeaMan> Go back onto Windows or Mac.
[01:42] <macjason0> tripitakit the installer won't find the usb hard drive
[01:42] <hargtholan> Mozilla? no no
[01:42] <|ns|nR8> i got no sound playing youtube videos in firefox
[01:42] <macjason0> how can i install it without it not being recognized ?
[01:42] <hargtholan> Debian stable, the best
[01:42] <NoIdeaMan> Mozilla is the best Company out there.
[01:42] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: the use of distinct partitions for home and / is a good practice to prevent such issues
[01:42] <NoIdeaMan> Ubuntu is Debian pretty much.
[01:43] <sina94> Any idea what's up with Cheese?
[01:43] <amirman> DarkKnight: i just copied my entire home directory to an external drive, that worked fine for me, you have to reinstall your apps but all your settings and stuff are store in hidden folders and files in home so once you reinstall the apps they'll be there
[01:43] <NoIdeaMan> Built from.
[01:43] <bonhoffer> i closed the lid of my 1000h eeepc with ubuntu 8.10, when i reopened it, the screen is non-responsive -- do i have any options?
[01:43] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; ya i have done that; so wen i do a fresh install will i lose anythin
[01:43] <EvilAIM> Ok, I got it.
[01:43] <EvilAIM> I just did the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:43] <EvilAIM> :)
[01:43] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: u could store your data in a partition you'll not wipe out, and install a clean hardy
[01:43] <KillerOrca> tripitakit: how do you put home on a new partition when you already have ubuntu installed
[01:44] <hargtholan> for example right now, no way to open a navigator...
[01:44] <hargtholan> no way!
[01:44] <x3n0> amirman; i've tried that one... but it came up with a seg fault :(
[01:44] <NoIdeaMan> What version do you have?
[01:44] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; n wat do i name the partition as
[01:44] <hargtholan> It hust does not start
[01:44] <hargtholan> 8.04
[01:44] <amirman> x3n0: damn, did it segfault during the aticonfig part?
[01:44] <NoIdeaMan> How long have you had?
[01:44] <zsquareplusc> hargtholan: did you check your hardware like memory ?
[01:44] <x3n0> amirman, yeh
[01:45] <hargtholan> it's a new laptop...
[01:46] <hargtholan> I'm serious ubunto is only for newbies.
[01:46] <x3n0> so i'm stuck with a seriously low res atm... :(
[01:46] <nintendork32> how can i run a program as a certain name to sudo kill later? i know its like !<name> something
[01:46] <tripitakit> KillerOrca: u could resize a partition and create a new one for home, then copy all you home on it, then give correct permissions and ownership to files and dirs
[01:46] <Cpudan80> nintendork32: who what?
[01:46] <donaldo> hola que tal???
[01:46] <mememe_> #seaphor
[01:46] <donaldo> alguno que hable en español
[01:46] <Cpudan80> !es | donaldo
[01:46] <KillerOrca> tripitakit: know of any links for a guide to do that?
[01:46] <sudobash> is there a way to bring up the print spooler by cmd prompt?
[01:46] <nintendork32> how can i run a program as a certain name (eg: ircbot) to sudo kill later? i know its like !<name> something
[01:47] <hargtholan> donaldo: brutal!
[01:47] <Cpudan80> nintendork32: What do you mean by sudo kill later?
[01:47] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; moreover i have only hardy cd....i dont have intrepid; if i dowload it takes 5 days bcoz of the speed ...sp wen i upgrade again..will i face problems
[01:47] <tripitakit> KillerOrca: to resize and make new partition look for gparted tutorials
[01:47] <Cpudan80> nintendork32: !name does nothing
[01:47] <nintendork32> so i can kill he process later
[01:47] <NoIdeaMan> Is the torrent downloader on Ubuntu fast?
[01:47] <amirman> x3n0: is your card supported?
[01:47] <nintendork32> no <what to name it>/<command> i believe
[01:47] <Cpudan80> nintendork32: sudo kill <signal> <programName>
[01:48] <zsquareplusc> nintendork32: does it boot now? or do you want to paste menu.lst?
[01:48] <nintendork32> zsquareplusc, paste it
[01:48] <Cpudan80> nintendork32: to kill it dead for sure - use -9 as the signal
[01:48] <hargtholan> I'm consuming from /dev/random
[01:48] <x3n0> Mobility 9600 ... I'm sure its still supported
[01:48] <bonhoffer> i just closed the lid of my eeepc with ubuntu 8.10, when i reopened it, the screen is non-responsive -- do i have any options? (other than a reboot) ?
[01:48] <nintendork32> i know but how can i name it custom
[01:48] <zsquareplusc> nintendork32: i mean you paste yours
[01:48] <hargtholan> maybe thats the reason why browsers don't start...
[01:48] <nintendork32> zsquareplusc, nah not right now
[01:49] <hargtholan> what do you think? do browsers need to read from /dev/random?
[01:49] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: you dont need to care about the partition name, a new one could be usefull to backup your home, before you install hardy back
[01:49] <zsquareplusc> hargtholan: why not? i guess SSL needs random numbers for session keys
[01:49] <bonhoffer> i am looking for a ctl+alt+del like behavior
[01:50] <bonhoffer> that could bring my screen back to life
[01:50] <StevenX> can someone help me mount my USB drive.
[01:50] <tripitakit> KillerOrca: http://www.howtoforge.com/partitioning_with_gparted
[01:50] <amirman> bonhoffer: ctrl+alt+bkspc
[01:50] <hargtholan> zsquareplusc:it makes sense
[01:50] <zsquareplusc> bonhoffer: you mean like pressing to power button for 5 seconds to switch it off?
[01:50] <bonhoffer> zsquareplusc, the only option with ubuntu?
[01:50] <tripitakit> StevenX: what is the prob?
[01:50] <bonhoffer> why would it freeze when i shut down the screen?
[01:51] <StevenX> tripitakit: it is not mounting.
[01:51] <NoIdeaMan> how do i play .avi files?
[01:51] <n8tuser> bonhoffer -> can you ctrl+alt+F1 ?
[01:51] <zsquareplusc> bonhoffer: you might get suspend to work. it works now with 8.10 on my 700. it wasnt woring on the previous version
[01:51] <bonhoffer> sorry -- rebooted
[01:51] <tripitakit> StevenX: did u mounted it before ?
[01:51] <hmw_> what is the name of the ATI catalyst control panel package?
[01:51] <ardchoille> !avi | n8tuser
[01:51] <bonhoffer> zsquareplusc, suspend works fine -- if i type pm-suspend
[01:52] <StevenX> tripitakit: I had to reformat it, so I actually unmounted it using gparted. But I don't know how to mount it.
[01:52] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; so do i have 2 upgrade again
[01:52] <amirman> aticcc
[01:52] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; after installing hardy
[01:52] <n8tuser> ardchoille -> huh?
[01:52] <bonhoffer> but shutting the screen seems not to work . . .
[01:52] <amirman> hmw_: aticcc
[01:52] <ardchoille> n8tuser: see the message ubottu posted to you
[01:52] <hmw_> amirman - thx...
[01:52] <bonhoffer> my problem is that i have no idea how to return to normal ubuntu and leave the dreaded netbook remix
[01:52] <donaldo> alguien que halla hecho funcionar el subwoofer de una toshiba x205
[01:52] <n8tuser> ardchoille -> did i asked you for anything?
[01:52] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: i understood u wanted to rollback to hardy...
[01:53] <ardchoille> n8tuser: oops, sorry, so many nicks I typoed :(
[01:53] <tripitakit> StevenX: the usb drive is formatted now?
[01:53] <StevenX> tripitakit: yes.
[01:53] <faryshta> Someone knows how to install Frostwire or Limewire using OpenJDK?
[01:53] <hmw_> amiran: i think i mean another program - the name wasnt that obvious...
[01:53] <zateam_> eww limewire
[01:53] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; but airman said that if i do a fresh install...ther wouldn't be any problms...i wanted 2 rollback in case i have no solution to intrepid
[01:53] <zateam_> people still use that shit?
[01:53] <tripitakit> StevenX: which filesytem?
[01:54] <n8tuser> !language | zateam_
[01:54] <StevenX> fat 15
[01:54] <amirman> hmw_: there's also aticonfig which controls ati settings via command line
[01:54] <StevenX> and gparted says that it is in /dev/sdb1
[01:54] <zateam_> god forbid some 8 year old is in here trying to compile a linux kernel
[01:55] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: i agree with him, just told you about partitioning to put you data in a safe place before doing the new install
[01:55] <hmw_> amiran: there is something you install (not the control center, more like a driver) that also results in an icon in the applications menu (the cc)
[01:55] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; ya. so if i upgrade 2 intrepid after installing hardy; will it cause the same problems??
[01:56] <hmw_> amirman - i just forgot it again
[01:56] <hmw_> amirman - my radeon9600 is realy nasty
[01:56] <amirman> hmw_: try amdcccle
[01:56] <allen> Is there an "easy" way to roll back from 8.10 to 8.4. I want my KDE3.5 back?
[01:57] <zsquareplusc> allen: no, there is not
[01:57] <hmw_> amirman - it crashes, it contains ccc (i know, the name wasnt so easy, because i searched for it 2 times already)
[01:57] <NoIdeaMan> jeff Dunham is funny.
[01:57] <NoIdeaMan> Jeff*
[01:57] <EvilAIM> I KEEL YOU!
[01:57] <tripitakit> StevenX: fat16 :) ok.. sudo mount -t msdos /dev/sdb1 /media/<your_mount_point>
[01:57] <x3n0> amirman, hmw_, yeh 9600s aren't that great... & amdcccle is the catalyst
[01:57] <hmw_> amiran - and the thing i look for is not a control center at all... the builtin drivers just wind do...
[01:57] <talntid> indeed he is
[01:57] <allen> !@#$%^& OK, I guess i'll have to build a new hard drive. Thanks
[01:58] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: probably yes, it will
[01:58] <amirman> hmw_: fglrx is the name of the proprietary driver
[01:58] <talntid> i have a friend who is a ventriloquist.... he was a best man in a wedding...
[01:58] <StevenX> tripitakit: thanks! that worked. How can I change it back so that it is automatically mounted? I remember another thumb drive would be automatically mounted by Ubuntu.
[01:58] <amirman> allen: are you having a problem booting your system?
[01:58] <talntid> was pretty funny. he was translating... :P
[01:58] <zsquareplusc> allen: aren't there any backports? a lot pf people seem to miss it
[01:58] <hmw_> amiran: craty thing is, i also have a pci voodoo banshee in the machin which makes it even harder to install... fglrx just results in defaulting to vesa, thus starting the voodoo
[01:58] <amirman> hmw_: sounds a little complicated
[01:59] <hmw_> amiranm: *nods heavily*
[01:59] <DarkKnight> tripitakit; thanx
[01:59] <hmw_> thanks
[01:59] <allen> No problem booting my system.
[01:59] <amirman> allen: !downgrade
[01:59] <tripitakit> DarkKnight: u'r welcome
[01:59] <amirman> !downgrade
[01:59] <tripitakit> StevenX: u could put a line in fstab fot it
[01:59] <tripitakit> *for
[01:59] <hmw_> amiran: i had it running already... much to do manually in xorg.conf... just gone back to 7.10 because 8.10 was too slow for my needs/on my machine

[01:59] <allen> Its just I don't like KDE 4.1 that much and I want 3.5 back.
[01:59] <amirman> you just have to reinstall i guess, or you could manually install kde3.5
[02:00] <StevenX> tripitakit: How so?
[02:00] <tritium> !es | donaldo
[02:01] <StevenX> tripitakit: now it is giving me a lot of errors where I can't save to it unless i use the command line.
[02:01] <allen> bye for now.
[02:02] <tripitakit> StevenX: those are premissions issues i guess..
[02:02] <StevenX> tripitakit: thanks. I will restart comp see if that fixes any issues.

[02:04] <EvilAIM> I don't wanna
[02:05] <EvilAIM> God damnit, evil... Stop hitting Enter so much, fawk...   But I doubt I missed anything, it's just lame...
[02:05] <Dragoniz3r> when in doubt, rtfm == *nix
[02:05] <Dragoniz3r> amirman: are you kidding me?
[02:06] <EvilAIM> I know how to use it, I just don't get why it's not working... freaking weird
[02:06] <test34> I manually downloaded 2 packages and I can't install either one of them because the package manager can't find the other one (they require each other) They are in the same directory.. what do I need to do?
[02:06] <amirman> Dragoniz3r: nope
[02:06] <hmw_> amiranm: does the radeon store settings on the GPU board, like in a cmos?
[02:06] <Dragoniz3r> so "god damnit" is fine, but "fuck" is off limits?
[02:06] <drew_> Anyone experienced anything like this?
[02:06] <amirman> hmw_: i'm not aware of anything like that
[02:06] <zateam_> yeah you shouldn't say "fuck"
[02:07] <zateam_> that's bad
[02:07] <hmw_> amiran do you know, where the fglrx stores its settings?
[02:07] <drew_> I'm on a fresh 8.04 install, fresh eclipse+php eclipse, fresh java, I've edited my java_home, and the eclipse config to use sun java 1.65
[02:07] <MrMeh> !language | zateam_
[02:07] <drew_> 1.6*
[02:07] <Dragoniz3r> can I tell zateam to stuff it up his ass?
[02:07] <tripitakit> test34: u'd install the required by the second for first
[02:07] <|GaiJin|> anyone awake??
[02:07] <EvilAIM> there we go
[02:07] <amirman> it's more the tone of the way he said it. that kind of attitude isn't very welcome here. this room is for helping people, not admonishing them
[02:07] <n8tuser> !ops | zateam_
[02:07] <zateam_> as in "shut the fuck up MrMeh"
[02:07] <zateam_> would be bad
[02:07] <EvilAIM> I wasn't using screen, that's why...
[02:07] <tripitakit> test34: but arent them apt-get installable?
[02:08] <nalioth> let us be civil
[02:08] <Dragoniz3r> surprising lack of testicles around here, letting the bot do all the scolding...
[02:08] <test34> tripitakit: If I try to install package "A", it says you can't install package "A", package "B" required.. and If I try to install package "B", it says you can't install package "B", package "A" required.
[02:08] <test34> tripitakit: no
[02:08] <zateam_> :(
[02:08] <test34> tripitakit: not in my current repository anyways
[02:08] <zateam_> why did i get kicked?
[02:08] <zateam_> i was just explaining Dragoniz3r the rules
[02:08] <n8tuser> zateam_ -> you have been warned. stop it!
[02:09] <comradekingu> The use of fuck would not be banned per se, but its alot easier to be an asshole with the use of fuck, so as not to come across as negative its best not used
[02:09] <ExecutiveOrder> what program do i need to open pdfs in firefox?
[02:09] <nickrud> zateam_, yes, in a rather unwelcome manner. That's why you only got a kick
[02:09] <ExecutiveOrder> its not even asking me to save them to my hard drive
[02:09] <|GaiJin|> anyone who can tell me how to get rid of the annoying pcspeaker sound from my laptop whenever i do something that makes it tick, other than stop doing those things??
[02:09] <LjL> STOP IMMEDIATELY
[02:09] <ExecutiveOrder> which is what i have it set for
[02:09] <LjL> EVERYONE
[02:09] <FloodBot1> LjL: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:09] <zateam_> hahahah
[02:09] <LjL> FloodBot1: meh
[02:09] <Dragoniz3r> lol
[02:09] <nickrud> hahaha
[02:09] <tripitakit> test34: it's a no solution situation if a require b and b require a to be installed, u cant do it
[02:10] <Dragoniz3r> comradekingu: so is the "family friendliness" of this channel intended to extend only to people not being assholes, or to people not saying words kids learn in grade school?
[02:10] <tripitakit> test34: but are u sure this is the case?

[02:13] <test34> tripitakit: yes, it's an old version
[02:13] <linxeh> nomin: in theory a huge amount, by clever use of paging, but the performance will suck more. 3GB is about the practical limit for 32bit OS of any kind
[02:13] <tripitakit> test34: i see, which are the A and B packages?

[02:15] <zsquareplusc> amirman: do you have resolutions listed in your xorg.conf?
[02:15] <tripitakit> test34: ok i try to follow that
[02:15] <zsquareplusc> altay: sensors-applet
[02:15] <driva2009> Could someone advise me on your install process for ubuntu please?
[02:15] <altay> zsquareplusc: thanks
[02:15] <Killer--Tux> helo with cedega
[02:15] <amirman> zsquareplusc: no i don't , i'd like to manually add them but i don't want to accidentally mess anything up by putting them in the wrong section or something
[02:16] <Killer--Tux> when i try to install a game and it ask's for cd 2 it wont let me eject
[02:16] <d4rkphilosopher> amir, r u partitioning your hardrive to install linyx?

[02:17] <EvilAIM> hmmm
[02:17] <zsquareplusc> amirman: hm. if you had i'd have said it may be the order, gdm probably takes the 1st one. but i dont knwo how to influnce the autodetection. i had it that gdb detected a too large screen, but since intrepid its ok again
[02:17] <amirman> zsquareplusc: what section would i put them in? screen?

[02:18] <amirman> zsquareplusc: i'd really like to just start with the most basic xorg.conf and add my fglrx and resolutions in manually but i keep looking for an easy guide on it but can't find anything except forums adressing specific weird problems
[02:19] <Killer--Tux> daxrocl thanks
[02:19] <lepine> i know this has been conversed hours on end before ... but can anyone point me to *the* solution for getting flash to work on amd64, if there is one?
[02:19] <lepine> most of what i'm finding is forum posts, with trial and errors
[02:19] <comradekingu> lepine: adobe released a 64bit alpha that works quite well
[02:20] <bullgard4> Synaptic says: "Gajim is a Jabber client. It has a tabbed user interface with normal chats, group chats." What does _tabbed_ user interface mean?
[02:20] <lepine> comradekingu: i assume that would be done by goign to adobe directly? and not through apt?
[02:20] <amirman> lepine: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/install-flash-10-ubuntu-linux-64bit.html
[02:21] <lepine> amirman: thanks, reading ...\
[02:21] <zsquareplusc> bullgard4: you know firefox and how you can open multiple pages in one window? thats tabbed
[02:21] <test34> tripitakit: I added that website as a repository, and it seem to work.  Thanks anyways
[02:21] <nickrud> bullgard4, think of gedit: when you have more than one file open, there's a little tab with the name of the file on each open file. That's a tabbed interface
[02:21] <comradekingu> lepine: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=985479#8
[02:21] <bullgard4> zsquareplusc, nickrud Thank you very much for explaining.
[02:22] <comradekingu> lepine: You have to install it manually. You will only get the 32Bit version with a wrapper if you install from the repos (correct me if im wrong)
[02:22] <tripitakit> test34: ok, so no need for me to test
[02:23] <relisys> hi
[02:23] <test34> tripitakit: no.. but thanks for your help
[02:23] <tripitakit> test34: :) u'r welcome
[02:24] <macjason0> tripitakit, you there .. sorry i had to help my kids with homework
[02:24] <macjason0> tripitakit, the installer isn't finding my usb flash drive i want to install ubuntu to .. ubuntu 7 found it but not ubuntu 8.10
[02:25] <macjason0> tripitakit, you there ?
[02:25] <relisys> I currently have windows installed  and iam trying to make a dual boot.   I got to the partition stage of linux install  iam not sure what ot select?  manual  or guided?
[02:25] <tripitakit> macjason0: that is strange, check with sudo fdisk -l if u can see it the u can mount it and install on it
[02:25] <GradysGhost> Depends.
[02:25] <tripitakit> macjason0: i'm here
[02:25] <GradysGhost> @relisys - What does your HDD look like?  How full is it with Windows stuff?
[02:26] <macjason0> tripitakit so reboot back into ubuntu and go to terminal and type fdisk -l ? .. do you want the output ?
[02:26] <GradysGhost> Either way, best to go with Manual.
[02:26] <fitech> @relisys I ran the install from within windows, and it works great.  I heard it can be lower performance...
[02:26] <GradysGhost> @fitech - It can be because it is a virtual machine, essentially.  That's how I understand it, anyway.
[02:27] <tripitakit> macjason0: yes if u can paste in pastebin is fine
[02:27] <macjason0> bbs
[02:27] <DEstlund> i've got a hauppage card that's not happy in ubuntu... i found a (very long) thread with no real resolution here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=785476
[02:27] <altay> zsquareplusc: I added sensors-applet using Synaptic, but I don't see it under "Add to Panel" in GNOME
[02:27] <GradysGhost> @fitech, relisys - Best to do an install to disk, and to use Manual when partitioning.
[02:27] <GradysGhost> If you're serious about it.
[02:27] <amirman> should i add resolutions in the screen section or the monitor section of xorg.conf
[02:27] <DEstlund> i'm a longtime linux user, but a development noob - i don't know what to do next
[02:28] <bouma> what do i need for a large 1TB partition ?
[02:28] <relisys> GradysGhost:  how much should i set my swap to?
[02:28] <bouma> can i use old style fdisk primary partitions ??
[02:29] <RB2> Evening All. I'm sure I'm not the first person to ask this, but I just upgraded to Ibex and on first boot, I got an error that my X config file could not be parsed correctly. I can now not enable the nVidia binary driver successfully. Any pointers to some helpful information?
[02:29] <GradysGhost> @relisys - How much RAM is in your PC?
[02:29] <zsquareplusc> altay: yeah i somtimes also had problem that added applets wont show up immediately. but they somehow showed up after some tries. or maybe the name is misleading. is there a hardware monitor?
[02:29] <relisys> 3gb
[02:29] <GradysGhost> @relisys - Bare minimum - 256 megs or less.
[02:29] <relisys> ?
[02:29] <GradysGhost> @relisys - you'll never use your swap file with that much RAM.
[02:30] <altay> zsquareplusc: Yeah, I see it now. Thanks.
[02:30] <relisys> swap file is HD space turned in to ram?
[02:30] <jrib> relisys: you'll need your swap to be at least as large as your ram if you want to suspend to disk
[02:30] <GradysGhost> @relisys - Yep.
[02:30] <GradysGhost> @relisys - Pretty much.
[02:30] <tripitakit> bouma have a look at xfs filesystem too
[02:31] <GradysGhost> @relisys - The Windows equivalent is called the "Page File" but in Windows, it's in constant use, and it's literally a file on your harddrive located at C:\pagefile.sys.  It's always in use there.  You'll rarely find it in use in Ubuntu.
[02:31] <Guest93878> hey guys whats a good program to convert mp3s to wav? for burning audio cds?
[02:31] <confabulation> Hi there. Does anyone know why pinging certain domains results in them having a five second delay between each ping/response but the ping time reported back is under 30 ms?
[02:31] <Cpudan80> Guest93878: you generally dont have to do that
[02:31] <faryshta> YUJU I FINALLY COULD RUN FROSTWIRE WITH OPENJDK. thanks for the help, if any.
[02:31] <beeradb> confabulation, the -i flag sets an interval
[02:32] <Guest93878> well i generally can't figure it out then.... Cpudan80
[02:32] <lepine> confabulation: i wish i knew ... i had an ltsp that did that
[02:32] <beeradb> confabulation, try ping --help
[02:32] <Cpudan80> Guest93878: The burning program itself should allow you to just burn the mp3s directly to a music CD
[02:32] <GradysGhost> @Guest93878 - Brasero and K3B should both work out the audio formats automatically.
[02:32] <beeradb> confabulation, or man ping
[02:32] <onats> ~frostwire
[02:32] <onats> ~frostwire
[02:32] <Guest93878> k3b didn't cut it
[02:32] <onats> !frostwire
[02:32] <DEstlund> @relisys - also you won't have to worry about your "page file" being "fragmented"
[02:32] <FloodBot1> onats: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:32] <onats> what is it?
[02:32] <RB2> Anyone familiar with nVidia issues in 8.10?
[02:32] <onats> RB2, i have the same problem. just running it on 2d, 1024x768
[02:33] <RB2> onats, ahh ok. At least I'm not alone. ;)
[02:33] <onats> yeah
[02:33] <StevenX> any way to tell ubuntu to keep files on a thumb drive and a hard drive synced?
[02:33] <DEstlund> rb2 i got lucky - i've had nvidia problems with every distro up to current
[02:33] <confabulation> beeradb, in this case it's the only site that delays like that.. doing ping -i 1 <site> gives 3 packets received/transmitted in 10000+ms
[02:33] <onats> destlund, what is your videocard?
[02:33] <amikrop> Hello. What is squashfs?

[02:35] <n8tuser> amikrop -> not all the files but a particular file that gets expanded...kindly google for squasfs
[02:35] <DEstlund> i've always had do manually install the nv drivers with this and my previous card
[02:35] <onats> im on a 7600gs only
[02:35] <DEstlund> this time, magic
[02:35] <amikrop> n8tuser: ok. thanks.
[02:36] <DEstlund> even with the issues, it's always been a cakewalk compared to ATI
[02:36] <RB2> Perhaps I should use a different version of the binary driver instead of 177... an older one
[02:36] <RB2> DEstlund, I would pick nVidia any day. :)
[02:36] <DEstlund> i bought one ATI card: nothing but trouble - it even made the system unstable in windows!
[02:36] <RB2> DEstlund, like that's difficult. :-P
[02:36] <scribawf> looking for some guidance on locating/installing minicom, any help please.
[02:37] <DEstlund> true, but when there are only two major brands to support

[02:37] <hubar> hmm, can anyone recommend a remotedesktop client? There are so many in the repository, it is confusing. :(
[02:38] <scribawf> ok cool= tnx to all will go that route

[02:39] <hubar> zsquareplusc: what about RDP?

[02:39] <genii> endeavormac: apt-mirror used to be about 32Gb for 8.04 ... much more now?
[02:39] <hubar> Is there an option to set up which protocol to use?
[02:40] <endeavormac> genii: thanks, that should be close enough :)
[02:40] <hubar> Be it RDP5, RDP4?

[02:43] <RB2> onats, look under /var/log

[02:43] <zsquareplusc> Killer--Tux: check what locks the path with "lsof | grep /medi/whatver"
[02:44] <scientes> can i go into the install partition editor after having installed?
[02:44] <hubar> agnel: can't  you just save the file into bmp format?
[02:44] <EvilAIM> Hey, weird question, is there a flag for a password for SSH? like ssh blah@ip -password cheese?

[02:45] <klament> Does anyone know why, despite having a pinging interval set to one second, pinging certain sites still delays their responses between ping packets by what seems like 5+ seconds? (The ping times themselves are small, like 30-80ms)
[02:45] <zsquareplusc> EvilAIM: "man ssh" ;-) there is but all users can look at the command line of the processes in a system
[02:45] <scientes> !raid
[02:45] <KalEl> how can i view the time zone data?
[02:45] <android60> i want to run a mythtv front end and backend, an http server for light loads and ssh server to access the files remotely, what is the best version for me to choose? mythbuntu? ubuntu server?
[02:45] <Killer--Tux> the thing is am tring to install battlefield and once it needs cd 2 i cant contimue becuse am not able to unmount
[02:45] <KalEl> how do i see the tzdata?
[02:45] <onats>  Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)
[02:45] <scientes> can i go into the install partition editor after having installed?
[02:46] <agnel> hubar: doesn't work - because bitmap files have headers describing the image, I was wondering if there's any utility to do this for me
[02:46] <onats> !gparted
[02:46] <myconid> android60, there is no best .. mythbuntu will be a quicker mythtv setup... but they will both do what you want.
[02:46] <Out_Cold> well i can't get k3b to convert mp3 to wav ( says "Unable to handle the following files due to an unsupported format") and brasero always freezes up on me.. is there a plugin or package I am missing?
[02:46] <scientes> can i go into the install partition editor after having installed? ON SERVER
[02:46] <Flynsarmy> When i try to shut down, my system goes into a split screen fullscreen terminal window for like 5 mins before it'll shut down. Is this a common problem?
[02:46] <scientes> sry about that
[02:46] <myconid> Flynsarmy, no.
[02:47] <jrib> agnel: use your favorite image library... PIL if you like python
[02:47] <hubar> agnel: hold on let me check
[02:47] <tripitakit> macjason0: sorry dont know hpfs...
[02:47] <Flynsarmy> it's not really a terminal window its more like dos (or unix?). if i type anything it apperas on both sides of the horizontal split line goign across the center of the screen
[02:48] <myconid> Flynsarmy, sounds like your v/hsync are off
[02:48] <bullgard4> Gajim allows me to indicate 1 of 7 statuses: Available, Free for Chat, Away, Not Available, Busy, Invisible, Absent. How are these statuses defined?
[02:48] <zsquareplusc> agnel: gimp can open raw images. and there are netpbm and imagemagick
[02:48] <hubar> agnel: hmm, Is *.bitmap the format you want?
[02:48] <Flynsarmy> myconid, How would i fix that? This only happens when i try to turn off or reboot my machine. didn't happen often in hardy.
[02:48] <hubar> also try to man convert.
[02:49] <myconid> Flynsarmy, since I have never had the problem.. im not sure.. i was simply saying it wasnt normal, and a vague suggestion as to what I thought might do it.
[02:49] <myconid> Flynsarmy, it could just be a windows xp cd close to your system thats causing it for all i know
[02:49] <agnel> zsquareplusc: Is it possible to take they bytes and dump to an image using the tools you mentioned?
[02:49] <RB2> onats, brb
[02:49] <EvilAIM> Well, I wanted to automate a lot of stuff on this tower, as I'm lazy:)
[02:50] <EvilAIM> I'm the only user on here, and the only user around that knows linux
[02:50] <King> how do i add a network to gnome-xchat
[02:50] <yagga> yes you are
[02:50] <Flynsarmy> Another problem: when i hit backspace the repeat speed is massively fast in intrepid. wasn't in hardy or gutsy or feisty.
[02:50] <JonathanEllis> AzMoo: You able to help me with my twin screens? lspci | grep VGA tells me 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL [Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01) and 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Cirrus Logic GD 5436 [Alpine]
[02:50] <agnel> zsquareplusc: gimp complaints if it can't understand the image so I'm guessing headers for these images are required describing its color depth, encoding and resolution
[02:50] <zsquareplusc> agnel: i think both can also read raw images, even from stdin if you want. i myself would use python and pil/imaging ;-)
[02:50] <umer> damn i waste my whole night to play glest :(
[02:50] <umer> but it's amazing
[02:50] <agnel> zsquareplusc: :-) thanks for the pointers, will dig in and see what's in store :)
[02:50] <zsquareplusc> agnel: the raw opener in gimp should ask you about these things
[02:51] <King> umer: try wesnoth its a pretty good game
[02:51] <agnel> cool :)
[02:51] <zambaboo> hi guys, i need to install libstdc++5 on hardy. hardy comes with 6. where can i get the 5?
[02:51] <umer> King i don't have any 3d card
[02:51] <umer> it will work
[02:52] <umer> i have 1 Gig 2.66 Pentium D
[02:52] <macjason0> tripitakit .. i know but i just formated that drive in windows as ntfs but it won't show up in the ubuntu installer
[02:52] <Flynsarmy> zamba, sudo apt-get install libstdc++5
[02:52] <edge> how do i find out if i have a firewall running?
[02:52] <onx> scientes, try cfdisk
[02:52] <King> umer: not sure it need 3d graphics
[02:52] <AidenXi> Is there a VPN server for Ubuntu that will allow my Windows boxes to connect? I want to do SMB forwarding over the Windows VPN. I don't want to install anything extra on the Windows box aside from putty and whatever VPN software Microsoft gives.
[02:52] <myconid> macjason0, your ... trying to install ubuntu onto ntfs?
[02:52] <myconid> AidenXi, yes.
[02:52] <AidenXi> myconid care to elloborate? =)
[02:53] <error404notfound> I have a problem related to DNS setup, here are the details and configurations: http://pastebin.com/m670b54ea
[02:53] <macjason0> myconid im trying to get the installer to see the usb flash drive that has ntfs so i can partition it and put ubuntu on it
[02:53] <matisse> hi
[02:53] <AidenXi> elaborate*
[02:53] <King> umer: i have a acer aspire 3680 with intel 945GMA card and my games are very limited and that game run well
[02:53] <jrib> macjason0: there is a bug mentioned in the release notes that if a partition is mounted, it may not be visible in the installer
[02:53] <macjason0> myconid gparted should recognize the usb flash drive regardless
[02:53] <King> how do i add a network to gnome-xchat
[02:53] <umer> guyz i have question when gimp became that much mature why still people prefer Adobe Photo shop i mean in the market every one wants Adobe
[02:53] <macjason0> jrib so what do i do ?
[02:53] <myconid> AidenXi, google 'linux l2tp' I believe
[02:53] <zsquareplusc> AidenXi: not quite to your specs but there is openvpn that runs on both platforms and can bridge nets
[02:54] <jrib> macjason0: unmount it before starting the installer
[02:54] <flyback> is it just me or is squashfs on most livecd distro's not long term stable?
[02:54] <matisse> how can I supress the permission-messages which find prints ?
[02:54] <Flynsarmy> Anyone else having backspace repeat speed way too fast issue in intrepid?
[02:54] <AidenXi> zsquareplusc last time I tried setting up OpenVPN I nearly killed a man lol
[02:54] <umer> King it's downloading slow net only 122 KB per second
[02:54] <flyback> seems after a while on any box you start getting squashfs errors
[02:54] <flyback> and the system collapses
[02:54] <jrib> matisse: redirect stderr to /dev/null
[02:54] <myconid> AidenXi, l2tp + windows client + linux
[02:54] <zsquareplusc> AidenXi: there is now a package on ubuntu
[02:54] <macjason0> jrib so when before i start installing unmount it .. after i unmount it then start the installer ?
[02:54] <Arto> exit
[02:54] <jrib> macjason0: sure
[02:54] <Doji> The text in not visible in my OpenOffice menus, though it flickers momentarily when I move my mouse over it.  That and my recent experience in #gimp was being told I hadnt read the documentation properly
[02:55] <macjason0> jrib when do i mount it ? remember i want to put ubuntu on the flash drive like i did with ubuntu 7
[02:55] <AidenXi> myconid thanks, I'll google away.
[02:55] <myconid> AidenXi, only 2 hours? wow .. it took me longer than 2 hrs :)
[02:55] <klament> umer: If you receive no better answer and at the risk of starting a holy war, I thought CMYK support was one of the problems in the past
[02:55] <jrib> macjason0: don't mount it
[02:55] <myconid> AidenXi, do you want quick and easy?
[02:55] <macjason0> aw
[02:55] <macjason0> ok
[02:55] <flyback> n8tuser,  yeah
[02:55] <zsquareplusc> AidenXi: that i dont know. look at /use/share/doc/openvpn/
[02:55] <flyback> days to weeks
[02:55] <macjason0> jrgp tripitakit .. bbs
[02:55] <King> how do i add a network to gnome-xchat
[02:55] <macjason0> wish me luck
[02:55] <flyback> I saved some of the log I think
[02:55] <flyback> it was hard,
[02:55] <AidenXi> myconid All I want is to access SMB shares on a computer behind a NAT/firewall but has full outbound access.
[02:55] <n8tuser> flyback -> why not just install a persistent install like on a hard disk?
[02:55] <flyback> syslog and messages hit 330 meg and killed up the filesystem
[02:55] <flyback> cause I been debating
[02:55] <myconid> AidenXi, ssh?
[02:56] <umer> no JonathanElis there is lot of Good Books available
[02:56] <flyback> fedora 9 pissed me off
[02:56] <zsquareplusc> AidenXi: yes,a  lot of examples: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/amd64/openvpn/filelist :-)
[02:56] <flyback> ubuntu 7 8 and 9 don't like my graphics card
[02:56] <matisse> jrib: thx, but can I undo that ?
[02:56] <myconid> flyback, switch back to windows 95?
[02:56] <flyback> it's a bug in their detection routines
[02:56] <King> i want to chat on in hak5 irc but don't know how to add the network to xchat
[02:56] <jrib> myconid: append " 2> /dev/null" to the end of your command
[02:56] <flyback> I think it's setting the dvi port when the crt is on vga
[02:56] <JonathanEllis> umer: Well the documentation built in to the program and on the gimp website is sketchy
[02:56] <flyback> etc
[02:56] <jrib> matisse: append " 2> /dev/null" to the end of your command
[02:56] <umer> there is site name gimp-tutorials man it's awesome
[02:56] <AidenXi> myconid SP2/3 nuked SMB tunneling, I get "Permission denied" when trying to forward 139 and 445
[02:56] <n8tuser> flyback -> maybe you can learn to program and contribute back so you can get these bugs resolved?
[02:57] <wise> Okay... restarted my computer, now all the contents of my secondary hdd are wiped... can anybody help me please?
[02:57] <JonathanEllis> umer: And it is not encouraging in a chat when you have a problem and essentially people tell you to go away and read the manual
[02:57] <flyback> myconid, I was walking newbies thru kernel compiles long distance over the phone before ubuntu was even a concept runt
[02:57] <umer> the only reason as far as i see people are less aware .. every one knows about Photoshop
[02:57] <AidenXi> Thanks zsquareplusc, I'll read over them if I can't get a simpler way of getting the job done.
[02:57] <edge> when ever i try to connect to my ubuntu mail server, it "actively refuses" the connection , but i cannot find a firewall running, ipchain is ruleless, ufw is not enabled
[02:57] <flyback> so save the smart ass arrogant "oh you are too stupid to use linux" comments for someone else
[02:57] <jrib> matisse: erm sorry.  I though you said "how can I do it?" and I answered that question.  What do you mean by "How can I undo that?"
[02:57] <myconid> flyback, and yet .. your in here playing the "it doesnt work out of the box" card?
[02:57] <jelex> hy
[02:57] <flyback> actually
[02:57] <flyback> it's ubuntu specific
[02:57] <flyback> the card has been supported by stock xfree86 and x.org for yrs
[02:57] <myconid> what bug number is it again?
[02:57] <RB2> onats, well that didn't work. ;)
[02:58] <flyback> in basic 2d mode
[02:58] <RB2> onats, I knew I should have stuck with 8.04 :-/
[02:58] <JonathanEllis> umer: Shame no-one in #gimp bothered to tell me about that - just made me feel like an idiot for not knowing everything already
[02:58] <matisse> jrib: no, everything's ok, thanks a lot !
[02:58] <flyback> it's only in ubuntu do I see this behavior
[02:58] <umer> jonathan:  i never mean to degrade you
[02:58] <AidenXi> flyback please keep your ego in check, this is a help and support channel, not a place to gloat your skills.
[02:58] <flyback> as for you n8tuser  I am not bitching, I am asking if anyone else seen this behavior
[02:58] <myconid> flyback, What ubuntu bug number did you file the problem and fix under?
[02:58] <wise> Okay... restarted my computer, now all the contents of my secondary hdd are wiped... can anybody help me please? anybody have any ideas to get the information back?
[02:58] <n8tuser> flyback -> you just like to rant?  this is just a support channel not a development...so your barking at the wrong tree?
[02:58] <umer> jonanthan: bro what happened if my words hurts you i would like to say sorry
[02:59] <flyback> AidenXi,  <myconid> flyback, switch back to windows 95? <--- you care to retract what you just said?
[02:59] <myconid> wise: DONT DO ANYTHING ELSE.
[02:59] <umer> jonanthan: don't be hyper
[02:59] <flyback> again
[02:59] <flyback> I am NOT barking
[02:59] <myconid> wise, be very careful.. what exactly did you do?
[02:59] <lexrex> is there a way to update all my files from bash? (apt-get install all updates)
[02:59] <bullgard4> Gajim allows me to indicate 1 of 7 statuses: Available, Free for Chat, Away, Not Available, Busy, Invisible, Absent. How are these statuses defined?
[02:59] <flyback> I am looking to see if anyone else has seen this behavior
[02:59] <n8tuser> flyback okay we got you, no one is around yet familiar with those issues
[02:59] <flyback> thank YOU :)
[02:59] <edge> does anybody have some expertise in firewalls?
[02:59] <jrib> edge: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to help you
[02:59] <AidenXi> edge whatcha need help with?
[03:00] <King> i want to chat on in hak5 irc but don't know how to add the network to xchat
[03:00] <edge> my box keeps rejecting connections on port 25, ipchains is off and ufw is not enabled
[03:00] <edge> i can't find the cause
[03:00] <jrib> edge: router?
[03:00] <myconid> king: type /server irc.hak5.com or wahtever
[03:00] <edge> jrib, im forwarding the correct ports, as ssh works but mail doesnot
[03:00] <AidenXi> King you can add it to your list by following this guide (and replacing the usual bits): http://t0x.in/xchatconnect.html
[03:00] <kitche> edge: could be ISP blocking port 25 as well if they are outside connections
[03:00] <lexrex> so whatever the apt-get update engine needs to run on my web-server which doesn't have gnome -- is there a way to update?\
[03:00] <JonathanEllis> umer: Dont think it was you who spoke to me that evening
[03:01] <JonathanEllis> umer: So no apology necessary I think
[03:01] <jrib> edge: does netstat show something listening on the port?
[03:01] <AidenXi> edge netstat -lnp to make sure smtp is running, and which smtp server?
[03:01] <klament> Anyone know why ping -i 1 -c 5 <specific_site> takes 20 seconds to process 5 packets, despite each packing having a ping time of 20-30ms?
[03:01] <umer> ok bro i thought you are getting hyper on me JonthanEllis
[03:01] <goat|lappy> lexrex: can you explain that differently?
[03:01] <umer> n e ways chill thumbs up
[03:02] <AidenXi> This always happens to me =/ I come in here asking for help and spend the next few hours helping others lol
[03:02] <JonathanEllis> umer: But devs in a chat room should be aware that newbies get put off very easily and when told RTFM they are likely to just go back to what they know on the basis that its easier
[03:02] <lexrex> goat|lappy, sorry, i am on my webserver, i want to update all packages -- this just "happens" on my ubuntu desktop -- do i have a command line option to run the updater
[03:02] <myconid> AidenXi, *nods*
[03:02] <edge> AidenXi, jrgp zimbra is listed as listening, though it doesn't give a port
[03:02] <goat|lappy> lexrex: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[03:03] <lexrex> i think the upgrade is what i was looking for
[03:03] <myconid> lexrex,  you need both
[03:03] <JonathanEllis> AidenXi: Thanks that you give the help
[03:03] <wise> myconid, check your query window from me please.
[03:03] <AidenXi> edge zimbra isn't configured to listen on a port then or has it turned off/safety measure that some smtp servers put it to make sure its not an open relay. Check the configs
[03:03] <lexrex> myconid, thanks -- it is working
[03:04] <edge> AidenXi, i mean, when i do a netstat it didn't list a socket next to any of them
[03:04] <edge> AidenXi, mail went out, ...it just never comes back
[03:04] <goat|lappy> lexrex: remember that if you attempt to upgrade without running the update in a while, you can run into some errors,   for the future
[03:04] <|ntegra|> I've fluffed my /home directory (chmod 666 /.*), how might I fix this again?
[03:04] <JonathanEllis> AzMoo: I guess you are busy so I will try again tomorrow
[03:04] <AidenXi> edge are you doing just netstat or "netstat -lnp" ?
[03:04] <lexrex> goat|lappy, thanks!
[03:05] <jrib> |ntegra|: what *exactly* did you run?
[03:05] <|ntegra|> chmod (slaps forehead, so you don't need to)
[03:05] <edge> AidenXi, i didn't scroll up, my error
[03:05] <jrib> |ntegra|: I mean the exact command in full
[03:06] <netyire> hi all! I'm running 8.10 with alsa, but can't seem to get the sound working. Is there a way to remove all configuration files and get alsa to configure it self automatically?
[03:06] <King> thanx for the help
[03:06] <edge> AidenXi, something is listening on 25, its called "master"
[03:06] <|ntegra|> dude: chmod 666 /.*
[03:06] <AidenXi> edge that would be postfix, disable it at runtime or remove it if you have no use for it.
[03:06] <jrib> |ntegra|: that wouldn't do anything
[03:06] <|ntegra|> (it looks even worse man!!! oh crap)
[03:06] <mylogic> I am trying to setup synce and I added launchpad to the rep and I keep getting this and not sure what to do to select the launchpad package
[03:06] <mylogic>  Package librra0-tools is a virtual package provided by:
[03:06] <mylogic>    librra-tools 0.12-0ubuntu0~ppa1+intrepid
[03:06] <mylogic>  You should explicitly select one to install.
[03:06] <FloodBot1> mylogic: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:07] <jrib> !who | |ntegra|
[03:07] <tarelerulz> I have been ripping one of my dvd and it been ok ,but I can't seem to get the subtitles .   Is there any totorals on how to use emcoder or transcoder .  that normal use can understand .   It says title ,but all I see vob some thing and so on.   I found the device name and mount put ,but don't understand that
[03:07] <edge> AidenXi, i used to be from another distro so i know how to do that in my old distro , i do not know how to manipulate the run times in ubuntu
[03:08] <JonathanEllis> !tab
[03:08] <AidenXi> edge should be something to the tune of "rc-update del postfix"
[03:08] <|ntegra|> jrib: my x went down, and looped, and rebooted ,and I cant boot now (except to recovery (text) mode)
[03:08] <edge> AidenXi, thats amazing that rc-update is in ubuntu also!
[03:08] <AidenXi> edge apologies, update-rc.d
[03:08] <jrib> |ntegra|: find the actual command you ran.  It will make it easier to figure out how to fix it
[03:09] <edge> AidenXi, u got my gentoo hopes up lol, thanks for the hlep
[03:09] <AidenXi> edge heh yeah I deal with ~3 flavors at work so my minds a little iffy on what is on what.
[03:09] <excalibas> Hello, I have checked the intrepid-proposed updates on the software sources and now I have 82 updates to do, what is this? is this ok or dangerous? sould I update?
[03:09] <|ntegra|> jrib:  it could've been #chmod 666 ./*
[03:10] <AidenXi> *sigh* SSH tunnel to VPN to forward SMB so I can watch 1 episode of Smallville...nice being a geek at times =)
[03:10] <jrib> |ntegra|: pastebin 'ls -l ~'
[03:10] <AidenXi> excalibas almost all updates that the updater provides are relatively safe, just don't interrupt it once its begun its process.
[03:10] <n8tuser2> excalibas seems normal, updating a gutsy now is like 470 items from a new install
[03:11] <n8tuser2> excalibas--> you can also pick and choose which one to update using synaptic
[03:11] <excalibas> thanks a lot :)
[03:12] <|ntegra|> jrib: but I didn't do anything else -I'm sorry but I'm in windows -I'm pretty sure I've 666'd /home/me/.* ,ie all the . and .. etc files that I need to do basics
[03:12] <excalibas> but what is this intrepid-proposed? where can I find information about it?
[03:13] <jrib> |ntegra|: chmod +X ~/.*    will probably get you a usable system then
[03:13] <Dream> hello
[03:13] <windowsgavemeara> what do i do with a .sh file?
[03:13] <danbhfive> excalibas: don't do it.  Its proposed updates, that have been made available for testing
[03:13] <root__> Hi, I need a webcam-server for My Ubuntu, I trust have xampp and webcam-server, may you help me configure them.
[03:13] <jrib> windowsgavemeara: why do you have one?
[03:13] <AidenXi> windowsgavemeara depends, .sh is usually a shell script. chmod +x it and ./scriptname to run it.
[03:14] <n8tuser2> windowsgavemeara--> you open it and see if its anything dangerous and dont use it til you're comfy ?
[03:14] <|ntegra|> jrib: do you think I should pursue this or just reinstall? (I'm a bit of a newb) Whoah, thanx, I'm off to try that in recovery mode!
[03:14] <pan> my wifi atheros card wg511t does not show up in restricted drivers in 8.10?
[03:14] <danbhfive> excalibas: once whoever is in charge thinks they have been tested, and they work, they get moved to intrepid-updates
[03:14] <excalibas> danbhfive, just did it o0
[03:14] <jrib> |ntegra|: worst case scenario, you just create a new user and copy over  your data
[03:14] <jrib> oh well
[03:15] <root__> Hi, I need a webcam-server for My Ubuntu, I trust have xampp and webcam-server, may you help me configure them.
[03:15] <Fezzler1> My main harddrive is failing.  I have a new one.  Is it possible to copy my current harddrive to my new one?  Boot sectors and all?  Exact replica?
[03:15] <netyire> hi all! I'm trying to reconfigure alsa on my box (I think some of the configuration files have gone all screwy), is there a way to delete the config files and get alsa to regenerate them?
[03:15] <excalibas> danbhfive, ok, so mabie it is ok, and than I just uncheck it
[03:15] <AidenXi> |ntegra| I'd (as root) do "chown -R username * && chgrp -R username * && chmod -R 774 *" in your users home directory.
[03:15] <usser> Fezzler1, use dd
[03:15] <n8tuser2> Fezzler1--> look into using dd
[03:16] <Fezzler1> dd?
[03:16] <Fezzler1> ok
[03:16] <n8tuser2> those are not br...never mind..
[03:16] <Fezzler1> Google dd +Ubuntu?
[03:16] <n8tuser2> yes
[03:16] <danbhfive> excalibas: you might run into problems, but if there are fixes, you will get them eventually.   I wouldn't worry about it to much
[03:16] <AidenXi> Fezzler1 if its failing I would first backup important data (tar it all up), then play around with a 1:1 clone.
[03:17] <pan> my wifi atheros card wg511t does not show up in restricted drivers in 8.10?
[03:17] <Juhaz> excalibas, but disable that repo. how did you end up with it in the first place?
[03:17] <bullgard4> Gajim allows me to indicate 1 of 7 statuses: Available, Free for Chat, Away, Not Available, Busy, Invisible, Absent. How are these statuses defined?
[03:17] <n8tuser2> pan--> if not, umm look for a compatible driver?
[03:17] <windowsgavemeara> what am i doing wrong here? david@IceWeasel:~/Desktop/CrossOver]$ ./install-crossover-games-7.1.2.shin
[03:17] <windowsgavemeara> bash: ./install-crossover-games-7.1.2.shin: No such file or directory
[03:17] <lexrex> i am having trouble understanding the difference between curl and wget -- is there one?
[03:17] <lepine> is the nvidia HDA audio driver known to be buggy/shitty? I'm getting a ton of noise and reverb w/ it
[03:17] <Fezzler1> AidenXi> All my data is on the second drive in my system mounted as /home.  First drive is all system and settings
[03:18] <danbhfive> !tab > windowsgavemeara try tab completion   maybe its a spelling error
[03:18] <windowsgavemeara> nm i got it,thanks root_
[03:18] <AidenXi> windowsgavemeara do an "ls" command, do you have that file there? And use tab completion to fill in the file name, much easier =)
[03:18] <excalibas> Juhaz, just checking what would happen if i checked it didnt seemed dangerous, proposed sounds nice :)
[03:18] <n8tuser2> Fezzler1--> you can get to single user mode, and save or tar the /home from there
[03:18] <lexrex> curl and wget seem to do the same thing
[03:18] <Doji> Sound spontaneously quits working. I can get it to work again by restarting, but that gets annoying fast. alsamixer shows nothing important muted, and testing sound playback outputs "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect: Connection refused"
[03:19] <pan> my wifi atheros card wg511t does not show up in restricted drivers in 8.10?
[03:19] <excalibas> thanks for your pacience
[03:19] <n8tuser2> lexrex--> kindly google for the differences
[03:19] <danbhfive> pan: whats the problem?
[03:19] <Fezzler1> n8tuser Don't need to.  That's why I put /home with data on one HD and system/settling on boot HD
[03:19] <pan> atheros wifi card not working
[03:19] <pan> working in 8.04
[03:19] <pan> but not in 8.10
[03:20] <pan> worked out of the box
[03:20] <danbhfive> pan: do you know which driver its trying to use??
[03:20] <AidenXi> lexrex not so much as you might think =) cURL is more advanced and offers a lot more than wget, it can also be integrated into php/etc web applications safely than if one was to use wget via ssi.
[03:20] <n8tuser2> Fezzler1--> so why dont you go ahead with the dd we suggested?
[03:20] <pan> never rilly did anything with it.
[03:20] <Juhaz> excalibas, yeah, shouldn't be dangerous, just potentially bit unstable (and rarely even that)
[03:20] <pan> it doesn't show up in restricted drivers
[03:20] <lexrex> AidenXi, great -- so curl is a more versatile version of wget . . . thanks
[03:20] <|ntegra|> jrib: hi, it's official You Are The Hero Of Today" thanx heaps for a 1 minute fix
[03:20] <Fezzler1> n8tuser: I am!  Googling it right now
[03:20] <danbhfive> pan: well, the drivers got opensourced, so they aren't restricted anymore
[03:21] <AidenXi> lexrex basically. More used in web application than a command shell. wget is for cli environments to transfer data from point a to point b quickly.
[03:21] <AidenXi> |ntegra| glad it worked out for you =)
[03:21] <n8tuser2> lexrex--> yeah,, curl is more like a programming language..
[03:21] <|ntegra|> cool dude"
[03:22] <_MM_> hello guys, I would like to ask you a question. I am now in the UK, have a BT broadband with a non-static IP. I have also a linux  account in another country. Would it be possible to make my IP look like as though  I am connected from the foreign server? I hope it's legal.
[03:23] <n8tuser2> _MM_--> you login to your foreign account and run the application from there. its legal eh?
[03:23] <AidenXi> pan you should have wifi enabled by default now, Atheros drivers as danbhfive said have been open sourced, they wont be under restricted anymore.
[03:23] <jrib> |ntegra|: no problem.  Anyway, worst case scenario would have been that you just create a new user and copy over your data
[03:24] <danbhfive> pan: you could try installing linux-backports-modules, that might help get your card working
[03:24] <AidenXi> _MM_ you could setup a VPN to appear completely from the other IP, or do SSH port forwarding/dynamic forward (socks4a forward) to mask only things you want to.
[03:25] <datakid> hi. I went to install python-setuptools and I noticed this at the bottom of the description in Synaptic:
[03:25] <datakid> "canonical provides critical updates for python-setuptools until May 2010"
[03:25] <datakid> does anyone know what this means apart from what it says?
[03:25] <datakid> ie, why? Is setuptools changing? is the install package changing?
[03:25] <_MM_> n8tuser2: can I login to the foreign server and run an aplication on my machine?
[03:25] <AidenXi> datakid just means after 2010 you won't be be able to get it from the canonical repos, atleast not the latest updates. You'll have to compile them yourself from source or use another repo that has updated versions.
[03:26] <n8tuser2> _MM_--> you run it at the foreign account machine
[03:26] <datakid> thanks AidenXi . what is the reasoning behind this?
[03:26] <AidenXi> _MM_ if the remote machine has an X desktop system, you can do X Forwarding to have the remote desktop appear local
[03:26] <danbhfive> datakid: canonical is the business behind Ubuntu.  They support certain packages, the rest are community supported.  That one must be one that has official support
[03:26] <datakid> ah, ok
[03:26] <datakid> thanks! danbhfive
[03:27] <_MM_> AidenXi: I read some information concerning reverse tunneling
[03:27] <n8tuser2> _MM_--> well actually you can run it in yours locally and somehow you can pipe your output to a tunnel to remote end and then the remote access the internet to show as if its running from there
[03:28] <_MM_> AidenXi no the foreugn server doesn't have an X desktop system
[03:28] <AidenXi> _MM_ either way you can accomplish the same objective. Personally I'd do a dynamic (socks) forward/reverse forward and use the socks server for apps that I wanted to tunnel.
[03:28] <lcruzer> hello everybody.. i have a problem with playing video's.. they flicker for some reason.   Is there a good program for Linux (Ubuntu 8.04) that does guitar tabs and such like Guitar Pro or Powertab?
[03:29] <noob9000> hi
[03:29] <Aeonis> I tried using Power Tab Editor with Wine and that was an epic fail for me.
[03:29] <AidenXi> lcruzer do you have the desktop effects enabled?
[03:29] <leo_> oiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[03:29] <noob9000> is Ubuntu better than Debien?
[03:29] <jrib> !ot | noob9000
[03:29] <matisse> How do I setup pdfedit, that it just shows comments in documents ?
[03:29] <Aeonis> !guitar
[03:29] <Aeonis> !shred metal
[03:30] <danbhfive> Aeonis: you used the appdb for wine to try and get it working, correct?
[03:30] <Igneous> IS THERE ANY REASON WHY XORG WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO TURN CAPS LOCK OFF?
[03:30] <matisse> lol
[03:30] <binMonkey> !birthing no babies
[03:30] <noob9000> I don't know if I want ubuntu or debian what is good about them plz
[03:30] <lcruzer> AidenXi its on default i havent touched anything except turned off screen saver..
[03:30] <lcruzer> AidenXi im new to ubuntu so i wouldnt know how to enable/disable
[03:30] <jrib> noob9000: try both and use what you like
[03:30] <jolynn> Can someone help me? I do not have sound, and i've talked to several people here before, done tons of things, and nothing has worked thus far.
[03:31] <matisse> noob9000: type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:31] <|ntegra|> jrib: ahh, ok, well I'd better go and read/watch that toot on file permissions again so I can unlock my music folder for rhythmbox
[03:31] <_MM_> AidenXi i am quite a linux newbie :-) the information of how to do reverse tunneling is available on google, I believe I could do that. The socks server you are talking about - I would have to install it on my current machine?
[03:31] <jolynn> I had sound when I used windows
[03:31] <Fezzler1> n8tuser: http://www.linux.com/feature/152592  <--- this "how to" look right?
[03:31] <cn28h> I've been having a lot of pulse audio problems the last few days -- anyone else run into this? it seemed to work fine, butn ow something is all goofy and it works intermittently
[03:31] <cn28h> on Interpid that is
[03:31] <cn28h> Intrepid
[03:31] <Aeonis> Yes danbhfive.  It said that it was really buggy and that it differs between each release of Ubuntu.  My problem is that I can't open files.  Everything else seems to play if I type something in, but after playing, the program locks up every time.
[03:31] <SpunkMeYeR> hi all..
[03:32] <|ntegra|> 'xup SpunkMeYeR
[03:32] <SpunkMeYeR> i just install ubuntu server 8
[03:32] <SpunkMeYeR> but i cannot ssh to the server
[03:32] <SpunkMeYeR> is there any config that should i enable first?
[03:32] <danbhfive> Aeonis: apt-cache search guitar
[03:32] <russell__> is there a way to jump to "any" directory from "any" directory?
[03:32] <scientes> does ubuntu store system time as utc or local, cause i used the live cd and then rebooting into my normal and my time was 8 hours off
[03:33] <jolynn> Can someone help me troubleshoot my sound problem? PM's welcome.
[03:33] <scientes> russell__, yes cd /any/directory
[03:33] <russell__> scientes: :)
[03:33] <mib_plniwiqt> evening
[03:34] <noob9000> igneous what is xorg
[03:34] <Aeonis> thanks danbhfive.  Dang...I wis hI could find someone who could recommend something.
[03:34] <noob9000> is it a font?
[03:34] <goat|lappy> x | noob9000
[03:34] <goat|lappy> !x | noob9000
[03:34] <Igneous> NOOB9000, I THINK IT'S THE GRAPHICS PART OF UBUNTU. BUT I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE WAY IT HANDLES MY KEYBOARD.
[03:34] <danbhfive> Aeonis: non of those programs work for you?
[03:35] <Igneous> SHIFT AND CAPS LOCK DO NOT WORK AT ALL. I'VE TRIED SETTING MY STUFF IN DPKG-RECONFIGURE, BUT IT DOESN'T WORK.
[03:35] <noob9000> igneous i think you set it to type 104
[03:35] <mib_plniwiqt> i'm new to ubuntu (relatively speaking) -- i'm having some issues with the network.  would anyone be able to help me out?
[03:35] <Aeonis> I mean, as a recommendation danbhfive.  As in a "Here's what I use and it's amazing!!!" and why.
[03:35] <danbhfive> Igneous: is this 8.10?
[03:35] <Igneous> DANBHFIVE YES I AM RUNNING 8.10
[03:35] <goat|lappy> !caps | Igneous
[03:35] <matisse> Igneous: how can you use dkpg-reconfigure if capslock is on ?
[03:35] <jrib> heh
[03:35] <scientes> WTF UTC=no
[03:35] <scientes> sriously wtf
[03:36] <Igneous> MATISSE, WITH THE UBUNTU ACCESSABILITY OPTIONS
[03:36] <Igneous> THE VIRTUAL KEYBOARD
[03:36] <|ntegra|> LOL@IGNEOUS!!
[03:36] <bullgard4> mib_plniwiqt: You better put a more specialized question here so that people here can help you.
[03:37] <AidenXi> Igneous please watch the caps, makes it seem as if you're yelling =)
[03:37] <jolynn> Can someone please help help me with my sound? I'm very, very new @ ubuntu, and i've taken several steps to fix it and none of them worked. Please someone help. I use the pc for 2 things, and one is to listen to music.
[03:37] <mib_plniwiqt> anyone?  the install of ubuntu studio apparently skipped setting up any interfaces for the network, so standard help does not apply here...
[03:37] <Igneous> WELL IF X WORKED PROPERLY I WOULDN'T BE USING CAPS. IT IS ALL I CAN TYPE IN, SHIFT AND CAPS LOCK DO NOT WORK
[03:37] <fitech> I made the mistake of installing Python 2.6 by building it (ie. ./configure...)  Now I can't seem to get tkinter to work, and I wish I had just used apt-get to install Python... is there a way I can uninstall and go back?
[03:37] <kitche> AidenXi: well if you read what he said X has his caps lock always on
[03:37] <|ntegra|> AidenXi: the poor guy has a bung kayboar
[03:37] <danbhfive> Igneous: try the workaround suggested in this bug 264196
[03:38] <matisse> lol, let him type on his own...
[03:38] <|ntegra|> haha "rarrrrr"
[03:38] <danbhfive> Igneous: the one about "AutoAddDevices" "off"           https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/264196
[03:38] <tsrk> does "shutdown -h" power off the machine?
[03:38] <n00b23452345> where do i extract the thtmes i downloaded
[03:38] <goat|lappy> shutdown -h now
[03:38] <n00b23452345> which directory
[03:39] <n00b23452345> i want to extract some themes but whats the file directory so they show up in preferences
[03:39] <|ntegra|> n00b23452345: where did your browser download them too?
[03:39] <n00b23452345> my home folder
[03:39] <goat|lappy> noob9000: drag the zip to the themes list
[03:39] <|ntegra|> trudat
[03:39] <jolynn> I don't have sound in ubuntu 8.10. Can someone help?
[03:39] <noob9000> what?
[03:39] <mib_plniwiqt> this reminds me of the forums.. guess i'll trod back over to winblows.. thanks everyone.
[03:39] <n00b23452345> right but whats the directory that the themes are in
[03:40] <goat|lappy> noob9000: ~/.themes
[03:40] <goat|lappy> mib_plniwiqt: i missed your question
[03:40] <n00b23452345> ~/.    ????
[03:40] <jrib> mib_plniwiqt: you were asked to be more specific
[03:40] <n00b23452345> wheres that
[03:40] <jrib> n00b23452345: ~ means your HOME
[03:40] <scientes> why is ubuntu turning into windows?
[03:40] <goat|lappy> n00b23452345: /home/yourname/.themes
[03:40] <dukesup> can anybody tell me what flash package to install for ff3 on hardy?
[03:40] <n00b23452345> ok
[03:40] <jrib> scientes: #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:40] <AidenXi> jolynn if you know which sound card/chipset you have, please let us know. Otherwise, the make/model of your computer.
[03:41] <n00b23452345> oh is it a hidden folder
[03:41] <jrib> dukesup: flashplugin-nonfree
[03:41] <goat|lappy> noob9000: yes
[03:41] <jrib> n00b23452345: yes
[03:41] <noob9000> WHAT
[03:41] <matisse> lol
[03:41] <klament> Is there any command-line tool I can run that gives a report such as "looking up domain foo.bar on nameserver aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd takes Z (milli)seconds?" nslookup seems to be giving results that disagree with how ping is behaving when pinging a domain versus an IP address
[03:41] <dukesup> jrib, anything special to do w/ it?  I've had problems with it in the past
[03:41] <goat|lappy> noob9000: sorry, wrong noob
[03:41] <goat|lappy> lol
[03:41] <netyire> hi all! I've accidentally deleted alsa's config files in /usr/share/alsa, anyway to get alsa to regenerate them?
[03:41] <jolynn> AidenXi, how do i find that out in terminal? I'm new, but I know there's a cmd for it.
[03:41] <jrib> dukesup: nope
[03:41] <mib_plniwiqt> oh.. i missed that j
[03:41] <dukesup> k, ty
[03:41] <AidenXi> klament use dig?
[03:41] <danbhfive> klament: maybe dig
[03:42] <mib_plniwiqt> the problem i'm having is no network.. no icon.. no interfaces are found
[03:42] <n00b23452345> ok now that i extracted it there what then
[03:42] <n00b23452345> ...............?
[03:42] <AidenXi> jolynn if its a desktop, its probably a pci soundcard. Do a "lspci" in terminal.
[03:42] <goat|lappy> mib_plniwiqt: head to the command line, and type ifconfig
[03:42] <goat|lappy> mib_plniwiqt: and paste the output
[03:42] <mib_plniwiqt> i have to boot back into it.. one sec
[03:42] <goat|lappy> !paste | mib_plniwiqt
[03:42] <mib_plniwiqt> i can't paste it
[03:42] <klament> AidenXi / danbhfive: all right, I'll try those. Thanks :)
[03:42] <mib_plniwiqt> i have no network
[03:43] <klament> *that
[03:43] <danbhfive> mib_plniwiqt: are you in windows now?
[03:43] <n8tuser2> mib_plniwiqt--> you are chatting here, so you have access to a network
[03:43] <goat|lappy> mib_plniwiqt: save it to a text file or something
[03:43] <n00b23452345> what do i do once i extracted my thtmes
[03:43] <mib_plniwiqt> ok.. i'll use pastebin
[03:43] <jolynn> Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)
[03:43] <_MM_> AidenXi: thank you for your suggestions. If you could just tell me one more thing, please: this socks server you were talking about- i guess i would have to install it on my current machine?
[03:44] <goat|lappy> n00b23452345: you can drag the theme package itself to your list of themes, in the gui, if you want to make things much easier
[03:44] <Werenerd> help! I have somehow rendered my desktop useless! I was trying to configure x11vnc and now I cannot start the X server and my filesystem is read only. I have no clue how I did this.
[03:44] <|ntegra|> n00b23452345: you don't need to extract it :: just open gnome theme thingee (in the main menu) and then drag the ?tarball? from ya fileManager window into the theme window
[03:44] <Stebalien> @netyire: try running "sudo aptitude reinstall alsa-base libasound2"
[03:44] <mib_plniwiqt> actually.. i won't be able to do pastebin either.. there is No network, therefore no connectivity to pastebin.. it's a separate computer than what i'm using
[03:45] <AidenXi> _MM_ the socks server is created by sshd when you do a "dynamic" port forward (-D portnumber). No need to install additional software.
[03:45] <klament> All right, dig <domain> reports 28ms as the query time. ping -i 1 -c 5 <domain> takes 20 seconds to run. ping -i 1 -c 5 <domain's ip address> takes just over 4 seconds to run. Anyone know why this would be the case?
[03:45] <goat|lappy> mib_plniwiqt: save the output to a text file and store it somewhere you have access to from windows, like a thumbdrive
[03:45] <AidenXi> _MM_ http://www.ssh.com/support/documentation/online/ssh/adminguide/32/Dynamic_Port_Forwarding.html
[03:45] <netyire> Stebalien: will do, thanks!
[03:45] <AidenXi> jolynn one moment while I look that up.
[03:46] <goat|lappy> mib_plniwiqt: you can also get some more things while your there
[03:46] <flaco> someone use virtualbox?
[03:46] <mib_plniwiqt> if you could just tell me what you need, i can tell you what is there.. i'm a technician, just not a linux one
[03:46] <jolynn> ok, could you possibly PM when you find a "fix"?
[03:46] <sudobash> umm domain name resolution?
[03:46] <sudobash> maybe your dns server is slow
[03:46] <klament> sudobash: if that's the case then why does dig report looking up the domain takes only 28ms?
