[12:46] <echosystm> can someone help? how do i get apt-get to run off my primary cd drive rather than my slave?
[12:46] <echosystm> i got rid of the slave...
 yes i did
[12:47] <Farva> Mazajy: If your sure that you burnt the cd correctly, which is NOT like a normal cd you would burn of music, then hit F12 at boot, and find an option to "boot from cd-rom".
[12:47] <rubika> Mazajy: Ok, you got another bootable cdrom to try if it's not your cd-rom reader ?

[12:48] <alsuren> Mazajy: can you go through the process you used to burn the CD?
[12:48] <rubika> Mazajy: Yaa right, when you put in the cd under your current OS do you have something ? When you try to look at the files, how many do you fot ?
[12:49] <Jjohn> aa^way, apt-get update then apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:49] <arso> HEP85:  i opened it , it has 3 files inside

[12:49] <alsuren> pawan: but I couldn't get it to make any sound
[12:50] <HEP85> arso: it doesn't matter. they are temporary and you can remove them after installation
[12:50] <arso> HEP85:  ok done.
[12:50] <HEP85> arso: set execute permission to the installer and run it (in a terminal)
[12:50] <Mazajy`> i burn the cd just like the website do at , www.ubuntu.com
[12:51] <HEP85> arso: and run it as root (using sudo)
[12:51] <arso> HEP85:  umm, it automatically runs in terminal, how do i make it run in xterm
[12:51] <HEP85> arso: open xterm and start it from there
[12:51] <alsuren> Mazajy`: do you have any other computers that you can test the CD with?
[12:51] <arso> HEP85:  how please :(

[12:53] <CheesyMonkey> pawan, Id recommend one of them native ones :)
[12:53] <HEP85> arso: cd /home/arso/desktop/
[12:53] <fasta> How do I change the brightness settings for Flash movies on e.g. YouTube?
[12:53] <desper> Warning: Skipping conversion of scripts in package SUNWuto: postinst prerm
[12:53] <Mazajy`> it lunch the cd for a sec then windows well statrt
[12:53] <HEP85> arso: sudo ./flashplayer-installer
[12:53] <Farva> lol
[12:53] <fasta> I can change the brightness of my whole system, but then the interface becomes _way_ too bright.
[12:54] <echosystm> someone PLEASE!
[12:54] <echosystm> how do i make apt look at the master cd rather than the slave??
[12:54] <echosystm> google isnt helping
[12:54] <buck> oh crap . i dont have my headers
[12:54] <echosystm> and i cant install anything :(
[12:54] <buck> what a wast of time
[12:54] <arso> HEP85:  after i cd /home/arso how can i view what folders are in there
[12:54] <arso> HEP85:  coz it says file not available if i add desktop
[12:54] <rubika> Mazajy: No, under windows, does it launch something that's speaking of ubuntu ?
[12:55] <fasta> arso: read a basic book on Linux
[12:55] <pawan> i have bitorrent client installed
[12:55] <echosystm> i tried apt-cdrom add -d /media/cdrom1
[12:55] <pawan> but i am not able to openit
[12:55] <HEP85> arso: ls
[12:55] <arso> HEP85:  thank you
 no
[12:55] <alsuren> echosystm: try mounting the CD first, then using apt-cdrom and telling it not to try mounting again
[12:55] <echosystm> i tried apt-cdrom add -d /media/cdrom1
[12:55] <echosystm> it didnt do anything
[12:55] <echosystm> apt still looks for /cdrom/
[12:56] <Farva> Mazajy: (you probabbly burnt the cd wrong) but try putting the disk in, restart windows, and right when windows starts,, hit F12.. That will bring op bios options,, find something that says boot from,, you know,, i;m finding it easier to advise him to stay on windows.
[12:56] <rubika> Mazajy: Then it wasn't burnt properly. You should try to reburn it or download it once again and burn it "as an image".
[12:56] <echosystm> how do i mount the cdrom as /cdrom/ ?
 can you tell for the bigging how to burn it into the cd ?
[12:56] <arso> HEP85:
[12:56] <arso> Please enter the installation path of the Mozilla, SeaMonkey,
[12:56] <arso> or Firefox browser (i.e., /usr/lib/mozilla):
[12:56] <Jjohn> rubika, Is he trying to boot from an iso image he got from the ubuntu site???
[12:56] <HEP85> arso: /usr/lib/firefox
 I DID THAT
[12:57] <rubika> Jjohn : Seems so... But don't know how he burnt it.
[12:57] <Newbie_Dude> I downloaded a package from the synaptic called "Desktop Search" which adds a little magnifying glass to my panel that allows search. Am I under the right impression that it does not search the entire file system, but only the home directory?
[12:57] <Farva>  Ok, you found the bios options, selected boot from cd, and it still went to windows?
[12:57] <arso> HEP85:  ok done, loading firefox now
[12:57] <buck> remote desktop arso
[12:57] <aa^way> Jjohn: thanks for answering but it didnt do anything expect asked me to update wine but uhm that isnt needed, its last version and i think it wanted to make it older :S?
[12:57] <arso> buck: ?
[12:57] <mind_shift> how do I add a public hub list in DC_gui?

[12:58] <jmchaffie> I'm trying to find out what is taking up port 8000 on my system... I can't find anything recognizable in processes. Any util I can use like netstat that will give me the process?

[12:58] <arso> HEP85:  if you can help me with one more thing?
[12:58] <Toma-> Is there a way to login straight to X without gdm/kdm/xdm/wdm?
[12:58] <HEP85> arso: it depends
[12:58] <buck> im gonna reboot guys.. brb..
[12:58] <Injen> TOo late i changed my nick,, ans yes,, if you don;t know how to burn an iso, image, I personally wouldnt recommend you playing with bios options, and am sorry that i did.
[12:58] <mind_shift> Toma: you need to log in
[12:58] <buck> if it works.. if not . than i suck and will give up on this
 ya it's iso image
[12:59] <arso> HEP85:  i have a problem with my sound, its quality, its really bad and full of static.
[12:59] <Jjohn> aa^way, I am not too sure what to do then
[12:59] <CheesyMonkey> Toma-, I think you can set to auto login in gdm..Dunno if that skips it as suck
[12:59] <CheesyMonkey> such*
[12:59] <jmchaffie> is there a way to see what process is using a particular port?
[12:59] <Toma-> CheesyMonkey: yeh i know that much, I just want it to be gone from memory
[12:59] <pawan> how to install bitrorent client
[01:00] <HEP85> arso: Sorry. I am no sound man. But in case you are using OSS, switching to ALSA should work better, I think
[01:00] <mind_shift> pawan: If you installed ubuntu, you already have one
[01:00] <Jjohn> Mazajay, you need to burn it to a cd maybe copy it to a hard frive then burn image from there a iso will not read
[01:00] <arso> HEP85:  already checked that, its alsa. np. and my gnome console is a white box.. i tried right clicking and changing color, its still the same.

[01:02] <jmchaffie> Something is using port 8000 on my system. Is there a way to find out what it is? netstat only tells me that it's being used.

[01:02] <echosystm> rtorrent
[01:02] <HEP85> arso: then you can start a program named nvidia-settings
[01:02] <clouder__> jmchaffie: I think if you pass -p option to netstat it should tell you
[01:02] <echosystm> in the terminal window
[01:02] <Newbie_Dude> pawan: did you followm y instructions
[01:03] <arso> HEP85:  ok , checking

[01:03] <clouder__> jmchaffie: -h is your friend ;D
[01:03] <Injen> Mazajy: even though you almost got yourself hurt, Im still inclined to help you if you agree to start downloading nero right now.

[01:04] <pawan> how

[01:09] <arso> Newbie_Dude:  np
[01:09] <arso> yay i helped someone!
[01:09] <HEP85> arso: can it be more messed up than now? but stay in the apps/gnome-terminal folder!
[01:09] <abedo> HEP85: what differs "ps ax"  to "ps -aux"??
[01:09] <buck> skype install on 64 bit .. my next battle
[01:09] <HEP85> abedo: -aux also displays user names
[01:10] <arso> HEP85:  umm how do i run gconf-editor and get to the gnome-terminal ?
[01:10] <abedo> HEP85: ok
[01:10] <HEP85> arso: open xterm and enter gconf-editor
[01:10] <buck> anyone with 64 bit system that has skype running
[01:11] <pawan> can maxthon be used as an internet browser in ubuntu
[01:11] <buck> i found daves blogs..
[01:11] <HEP85> buck: yes, installed with automatix and afterwards heard it's bad and can break your system
[01:11] <buck> should be able to do it..
[01:11] <zyth> pawan, that'd be a no.  At least not practically.
[01:11] <Newbie_Dude> buck: I'd suggest not using 64-bit, not much software support, but good luck with Skype nonetheless. :P
[01:11] <HEP85> buck: worked for me anyways. but I removed it immediately afterwards. I want no broken system^^
[01:11] <pawan> any other browser than firefox
[01:12] <buck> what you mean .. it like overheats your stufff
[01:12] <arso> HEP85:  i am at gnome-terminal , but i have no idea if anything is wrong or right ;(
[01:12] <zyth> pawan, sure, opera, mozilla, konqueror, epiphany
[01:12] <zyth> pawan, ie6
[01:12] <stewski> you can run various versions of internet explorer under linux
[01:12] <arso> epiphany?
[01:12] <zyth> don't know why you'd want that though
[01:12] <Injen> pawan: I like epiphany  but you might not find my recommendation popular.
[01:12] <Newbie_Dude> pawan: Opera is very good, but no AdBlocker like Firefox. :P
[01:12] <pawan> ok
[01:12] <zyth> firefox is hot.
[01:13] <pawan> great
[01:13] <HEP85> arso: under global I have to times default, one time UTF8, ... and three checked boxes
[01:13] <yu31g7> I think my laptop monitor supports a resolution of 1400 by 1050, but of all the operating systems I've tried (including the default windows installation), only SAM linux has detected this and implemented it. How can I force a 1400 by 1050 resolution?
[01:13] <clouder> does epiphany take add ons like FF?

[01:23] <zyth> actually, anything with codecs.. heh

[01:23] <Music_Shuffle> arso, perhaps you too could try mplayer.
[01:23] <echosystm> i cbf installing codecs
[01:23] <Newbie_Dude> Toma-: copy and paste the entire thing? don't modify the existing lines in my hosts file?
[01:23] <echosystm> im not thata cool
[01:23] <arso> Music_Shuffle:  does it have a gui ?
[01:23] <daerid> i'm having a problem with ubuntu studio. whenever I hit ctrl+alt+backspace, I get a blank screen, no command line :(
[01:24] <echosystm> i just want it to work :P
[01:24] <Music_Shuffle> arso, yeah

[01:24] <daerid> that works fine, but I'm trying to reconfigure xserver

[01:24] <arso> Music_Shuffle:  hehe great :)
[01:24] <Injen> arso: you need to dl the right codecs, it's not vlc.
[01:24] <arso> Injen: could you help me with that?
[01:24] <Newbie_Dude> Toma-: there's two entries for <IP_ADDRESS> localhost, is that ok?
[01:25] <zyth> arso, just follow the instructions for restrictedformats or add the medibuntu repos, and you can get em
[01:25] <whazilla> hey
[01:25] <whazilla> how do i dualboot latest fiesty with vista ?.?
[01:25] <arso> zyth:  does include coreavc?
[01:25] <Injen> see if i get kicked here.
[01:25] <Injen> Now you would surely want to install all the codecs for playing various media files and the players primarily xine,vlc,mplayer issue the following commands to install the multimedia codecs.
[01:25] <Injen> sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-gl gstreamer0.10-plugins-base gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse libxine-extracodecs w32codecsvlc mplayer
[01:25] <Injen> This command would install most of the codecs for gstreamer multimedia architecture and vlc media player and Mplayer , as well as the dll files codec (w32codecs) for decoding various files whoose open source decoder are not available.
[01:25] <Toma-> Newbie_Dude: yeh its ok, but you can get rid of it if you like
[01:25] <zyth> arso, coreavc?
[01:25] <Newbie_Dude> Toma-: ok thanks so much :) this is amazing. woo
[01:25] <arso> zyth:  its for highdefinition videos
[01:26] <whazilla> how do i dualboot latest fiesty with vista ?.?
[01:26] <Toma-> Newbie_Dude: np! :D
[01:26] <HEP85> whazilla: you need to delete the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\MountedDevices when booting Vista alone for the last time
[01:26] <arso> Injen:  thank you.
[01:26] <zyth> arso, oh like h264 or whatever?
[01:26] <Injen> arso: http://cca.sg/forum/showthread.php?t=24
[01:26] <jenda> Why is system monitor lying to me? :) It says the CPU is 30-100% used, but when I want to check which process is eating it up, it doesn't tell. Are any processes ommited in that list?
[01:26] <arso> zyth:  yea.
[01:26] <daerid> any ideas?
[01:26] <Injen> Everyone: http://cca.sg/forum/showthread.php?t=24
[01:26] <arso> Injen:  thnkx.
[01:26] <zyth> arso, should work I do believe.
[01:26] <whazilla> heh HEP85 come again ?.?
[01:26] <Injen> sure
[01:26] <arso> zyth:  great.
[01:26] <whazilla> pm ?
[01:26] <Music_Shuffle> jenda, and the list is...sorted?
[01:26] <arso> this why i love ubuntu, great community
[01:27] <Newbie_Dude> Toma-: says i dont have permission to save :-|
[01:27] <mike1234> when mounting a samba share is there anyway i can access that share without being root
[01:27] <HEP85> whazilla: ok
[01:27] <Toma-> Newbie_Dude: sudo obviously :o
[01:27] <mike1234> like a normal user
[01:27] <Toma-> sorry
[01:27] <arso> :(
[01:27] <arso> hey whts the kde terminal called?
[01:27] <arso> kde-terminal? coz that doesnt get any results in synaptic
[01:27] <CheesyMonkey> konsole
[01:27] <arso> ahh yes
[01:28] <arso> i think i like kde better than gnome, last year i tried kubuntu for 2 months
[01:28] <arso> it was a lot easier and simpler than this
[01:29] <nalle303> I need help installing Ubuntu, anyone
[01:29] <arso> nalle303:  what the problem?
[01:29] <Injen> I like KDE also, again not a popular choice amongst die hard nix heads, but gui's are productive, commands lines are well,, command lines.
[01:29] <arso> whats*
[01:29] <desper> I need help installing SunRay on Ubuntu any one plz
[01:29] <arso> Injen:  can i switch to kde now? or would i have to reinstall everything ?
[01:29] <bobn> commandlines rule, dammit
[01:30] <Injen> hehe
[01:30] <Injen> ^die hard nix head
[01:30] <zyth> arso, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop gives you kubuntu essentually
[01:30] <alsuren> arso:konsole
[01:30] <arso> alsuren:  yes, got that 10 mins aog, ty
[01:30] <nalle303> The system freezes when it try to format my partition
[01:30] <arso> zyth:  would that remove gnome?
[01:30] <arso> zyth:  and would i retain all my applications and settings and stuff?
[01:30] <bobn> yup.
[01:30] <zyth> arso, no, it wouldnt remove gnome.
[01:31] <arso> zyth:  so wouldnt that add load to my pc? having both gnome and kde?
[01:31] <zyth> you'd have to uninstall gnome... sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop should do that.
[01:31] <zyth> it'd take up hd space.
[01:31] <Injen> arso: if kde is installed already, just log out and when you log in, select session,, kde. is the clean way.
[01:31] <bobn> I been on Unix since '95 - it was SCO Unix but it still counts, sort of.  And I'm a unix latecomer
[01:31] <arso> Injen:  so when i log in, i have to select kde or gnome ?
[01:32] <Injen> I like kde, hence I select kde
[01:32] <Injen> L(
[01:32] <arso> yay i now have konsole working, and gnome-terminal removed
[01:32] <Injen> removed?
[01:32] <Injen> :/
[01:32] <arso> Thursley:  ur so useless :P
[01:32] <Injen> You can have them both installed
[01:32] <arso> Injen:  it wasnt working fine, it was a white box :S
[01:32] <Thursley> arso, agreed : /
[01:32] <Enselic> When I modprobe -r it says "FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel is in use.", how can I find out what program that uses the module?
[01:33] <Injen> And just boot one or the other,, hell you can boot both at the same time, have gnome and kde running :P
[01:33] <arso> Thursley:  ur a lively presence :)
[01:33] <arso> Injen:  sounds scary, i finally have everything working, i dont wanna mess with kde or gnome
[01:33] <Enselic> I'd rather not reboot
[01:33] <zdzichu_> Enselic: lsof /dev/snd/*; probably mixer applet
[01:33] <rtyler> anybody know of any prebuilt Ubuntu/Debian kernel images with usbnet?
[01:34] <EvilBro> I've installed a program from source (using configure and make). This program seems to be put into /usr/local/. Does that mean I can delete the directory I installed from?
[01:34] <arso> Injen:  do you know everything ?
[01:34] <arso> :P
[01:34] <rtyler> Injen: was that to me?
[01:34] <SoulPropagation> So my Qemu VM can't get an IP address. (ipconfig /renew gives Unable To Contact DHCP Server) I'm using a tun interface, what should I do?
[01:34] <nalle303> Im trying to dualboot XP and Ubuntu. Ive made a ext3 and a swap partiton in Partition Magic8. Why do i have to format the ext3 partition during ubuntu install?
[01:34] <Injen> Yea, I agree don;t mess with it.
[01:34] <Enselic> zdzichu_: indeed, thank you
[01:35] <arso> nalle303:  why did u do that, i just started dualbooting xp and ubuntu 2 days ago
[01:35] <arso> nalle303:  i just installed xp, then installed ubuntu, each did its own formatting
[01:35] <nalle303> everytime ubuntu try to format a partition it freezes
[01:35] <Injen> and no, I don't know much, truth be told, I've been on Ubuntu for 3 days now, although I have about 4 years of Debian experience.
[01:36] <pawan> how to install nvidia graphics card driver in ubuntu
[01:36] <arso> !nvidia
[01:36] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:36] <EvilBro> Anyone? when you use configure/make things get installed into /usr/local/, is this normal?
[01:37] <arso> :O i am becoming useful :D
[01:37] <Newbie_Dude> How do I make my new music program - Exaile - be the default program for opening MP3s?
[01:37] <Thursley> EvilBro, yes
[01:37] <Injen> I have found, all linux distros are the same,, only differ in what packages they come with, I like Ubuntu thus far, because it and kunbutu are the only os that have worked out of the box on my newer dell.
[01:37] <Thursley> Injen, blasphemy!
[01:37] <kevinstonge> I followed the steps on this page (just to get beryl to load on start), and now when I login an empty gedit pops up, and a terminal window pops up. I don't see anything in the two files created that would cause that... how can I fix it?
[01:37] <BaD_CrC> can someone tell me why i can't bridge eth0 and wlan0?   http://pastebin.ca/628553
[01:37] <ari_stress> hello all, finally i'm using ubuntu on my notebook. yayyy! :)
[01:37] <Thursley> congrats ari_stress
[01:37] <EvilBro> Thursley: good (so I haven't messed up yet :) ). can I delete the directory I installed from? (the one that I extracted from the source-tar)
[01:37] <Anlar> Injen: opensuse should work as well usually
[01:38] <bobn> not all the same.  Debian messes around massivleyt with the config files of everything, near as i can tell.
[01:38] <nalle303> is it impossible to install ubuntu without formating? when i already got a new ext3 partition?
[01:38] <bobn> if Ubuntu weren't so tasty, I'd never use debian
[01:38] <Injen> Thursley: Ok, well YOUR version on linux might be better than everyone elses. But the majority of nix filesystems are the same, and hell,,,
[01:38] <Thursley> EvilBro, yes
[01:38] <Injen> Most are built off of Debian anyway.
[01:38] <arso> hey guys, amarok is really slow with me, and slows down the entire pc
[01:39] <BaD_CrC> long live exaile!
[01:39] <pawan> any good antivirus for ubuntu
[01:39] <arso> exaile?
[01:39] <zaggynl> !antivirus
[01:39] <ubotu> antivirus is something you don't really need on Linux, unless you serve windows clients. ClamAV and aegis are decent linux virusscanners. Also see !linuxvirus
[01:39] <Newbie_Dude> pawan: I was told you don't need an anti-virus.
[01:39] <bobn> Unfortunately, Fedora is a sandbox and CentOS tends to be old.
[01:39] <bobn> so here I am :)
[01:39] <arso> !exaile
[01:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about exaile - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:39] <Newbie_Dude> pawan: Read this article on why Linux viruses aren't a big threat -- http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[01:40] <Newbie_Dude> arso: exaile is an MP3 player similar to iTunes but less bloated and cooler. :) It is the gnome equivelant of Amarok
[01:40] <Anlar> Injen: usually opensuse is the most polished and best working.. or foresight (which attempts to be upstream and brand new constantly)
[01:40] <EvilBro> Thursley: That does leave me puzzled on one issue though... as I thought the program was in the directory I build from, removing the program seemed easy: just delete the directory. However, as it isn't in that directory, but in /usr/local/, how do I ever get rid of it when that time comes?
[01:40] <BaD_CrC> hah, the exaile website is borked
[01:40] <arso> Newbie_Dude:  oh , do you recommend it?
[01:40] <Newbie_Dude> arso: i'm using it right now, so far it is the best i've found for Ubuntu. I think I got mine from www.getdeb.net
[01:41] <arso> Newbie_Dude:  great, isnt it available through synaptic?
[01:41] <arso> !deb
[01:41] <ubotu> deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[01:41] <Injen> I'll give opensuse a few more,, "years"
[01:41] <Kevin4381> I followed the steps on this page (just to get beryl to load on start), and now when I login an empty gedit pops up, and a terminal window pops up. I don't see anything in the two files created that would cause that... how can I fix it?
[01:41] <Injen> They just got hit with a very bad bug.
[01:41] <Thursley> EvilBro, that puzzle is the reason package managers are used to keep track of all this. Hence you will always be advised to use apt/dpkg to install software
[01:41] <Newbie_Dude> arso: it is but an earlier version... www.getdeb.net I believe has a later version. Synaptic programs are updated once every 6 months, at the same time as the new Ubuntu versions are released.
[01:41] <BaD_CrC> the only radio stations needed for Exaile is: SLAY Radio, Nectarine, Kohina and GamingFM
[01:42] <arso> Newbie_Dude:  ah, and isnt there a command to check for updates for already installed programs ors omething?
[01:42] <Newbie_Dude> arso: no idea
[01:42] <arso> 0.2.8 on synaptic
[01:42] <BaD_CrC> 'sudo apt-get update'
[01:42] <Anlar> Injen: what bug?
[01:42] <arso> BaD_CrC:  does that look for updates for everything?
[01:42] <BaD_CrC> then see if the update icon shows up at the top of your screen
[01:43] <BaD_CrC> installed packages
[01:43] <arso> but does it check with synpatic?
[01:43] <arso> or with what?
[01:43] <arso> because synaptic already has an older version
[01:43] <arso> i want to install that, then update it
[01:43] <BaD_CrC> snyaptic is a gui interface to apt-get
[01:43] <arso> ah
[01:43] <arso> so it'll be the same, right?
[01:43] <EvilBro> Thursley: I see. However, pidgin and Maxima 5.12 (the apps I installed manually) weren't available as packages in the repositories. That's why I tried installing them from source in the first place. So I am now doomed to forever have these files on my system? (as I'm not the kind of person who will manually shift through all directories for stray files).
[01:43] <Kevin4381> since installing beryl; all my windows open in the bottom left corner of the screen (rather than the CENTER where they should be)... how can I fix this?
[01:43] <Newbie_Dude> arso: 0.2.8? I'm using 0.2.9.. No idea about synaptic, I got mine from www.getdeb.net
[01:43] <mectx> hello
[01:44] <BaD_CrC> pidgin is available as debs on www.getdeb.net
[01:44] <arso> Newbie_Dude:  yea i found .9 on getdeb
[01:44] <arso> hey the latest ubuntu is feisty right>?
[01:44] <arso> 7.04
[01:44] <CheesyMonkey> yes
[01:45] <BaD_CrC> stable 7.04, testing 7.10
[01:45] <Thursley> EvilBro, have a look at the documentation that came with the sources. Make follows certain defaults as well, but my knowledge is not enough to be able to to tell you how to go about doing this precisly. I have encountered the same problem tho :P

[01:45] <Newbie_Dude> arso: Getdeb.net is nice because it allows newbies like myself to easily install programs, just double-click and it installs.
[01:45] <AlexC_> Hey there guys,
[01:45] <arso> Newbie_Dude:  oh , nice, i thought id be complicated
[01:45] <Injen> The one i had mentioned isnt posted on there aymore.
[01:45] <Injen> :/
[01:45] <Anlar> Injen: so? didn't it take them just a few hours to fix them after announced.. that's just normal maintenance static noise
[01:46] <mectx> excuse me but i have launched a napp then it run but i have lost it windows
[01:46] <mectx> an idea?
[01:46] <EvilBro> Thursley: okay, I'll take a look at those. Thanks.
[01:46] <Anlar> they are not really dangerous anyways either
[01:46] <Newbie_Dude> arso: any file that has the ".DEB" at the end is already packaged. So you double-click and it'll download any needed dependencies. :) I wouldn't make you download some version you had to compile. ;) I can't even do that myself.
[01:46] <arso> hey guys, how old are you ? 18 or under, 18-25 , 25-35 , 35+
[01:46] <joshua__> 25
[01:46] <mectx> 26
[01:46] <CheesyMonkey> 16 :)
[01:46] <arso> Newbie_Dude:  great,
[01:46] <mike1234> 21
[01:46] <arso> i am 17
[01:46] <joshua__> what's the command to see what version of ubuntu i'm running?
[01:46] <Newbie_Dude> arso: 25, but ask in #ubuntu-offtopic for that kind of thing :)
[01:46] <nalle303> is it possible to skip the "formating partition" stage during ubuntu install when i already got a ext3 partition?
[01:46] <AlexC_> I've got a cron job that updates an SVN working copy every 4 hours - however, when it does that it obviously resets the ownership of the files to the user who did the checkout. I need to also do "sudo chown www-data /path/to/file.xml" - however, would that not ask for my password?
[01:46] <arso> i was just wondering :P
[01:47] <mectx> excuse me but i have launched a napp then it run but i have lost it windows  any body can helo me?
[01:47] <Thursley> joshua__, lsb -a
[01:47] <arso> CheesyMonkey:  phew! ur the only one younger than me :P

[01:48] <intgr> Hi, I just tried to boot off the Ubuntu 7.04 LiveCD on my laptop, but it fails in the initrd; there's a .log file in the root which says that mounting CD-ROM failed.
[01:48] <MBR> i'm wondering if ubuntu 7.04 supports booting to console instead of gnome
[01:48] <CheesyMonkey> arso, Haha ^^
[01:49] <Cook> What are the benefits of joining Ubuntu machine to WIn domain? Anyone tried yet?
[01:49] <Anlar> intgr: try going to your bios setting and turning on legacy emulation for your disc drives etc
[01:49] <arso> installing exaile now. seems interesting
[01:49] <intgr> Anlar: Ok, thanks, will try.
[01:49] <Kevin4381> when using beryl, new windows open in bottom left; when using compiz, new windows open on top left ... somebody's got to know why! and how to fix it?
[01:49] <MBR> btw i'm very green to ubuntu
[01:49] <arso> do i have to remove amarok? or is it fine if i have both, does it affect performance? or only harddisk space?
[01:49] <CheesyMonkey> arso, Its fine....hard disk is about it :)
[01:50] <AlexC_> Kevin4381: System->Prefs->CompizConfig Settings
[01:50] <BaD_CrC> ok, knoversation is beginning to tick me off because it keeps loading konqueror...
[01:50] <Newbie_Dude> arso: personally i'd get rid of amarok first (i'm a freak like that) but it won't affect performance
[01:50] <BaD_CrC> ack i can't type this morning
[01:50] <AlexC_> kevingo to Window Management->Place Window
[01:50] <BaD_CrC> not enough coffee
[01:50] <CheesyMonkey> Newbie_Dude, Same here....if im running GNOME I hate having anything kde installed :)
[01:50] <Kevin4381> AlexC_:  I don't have that item in my menu...
[01:50] <arso> Newbie_Dude:  i see, i would remove it anyway, dont want unwanted apps
[01:50] <AlexC_> Kevin4381: ah, you running compiz and not compiz fusion?
[01:50] <mike1234> how can normal users access mounted shares
[01:51] <arso> whats the command for uninstalling amarok please>
[01:51] <Kevin4381> dont' think its fusion
[01:51] <AlexC_> arso: sudo apt-get remove name-of-package
[01:51] <Kevin4381> I installed ubuntu, then installed beryl.. thats it
[01:51] <arso> AlexC_:  great thnx.
[01:51] <Kevin4381> so whatever comes w/feisty or beryl is what I'm runing
[01:51] <AlexC_> Kevin4381: ok - I'm not sure on that, never used that one sorry
[01:51] <BaD_CrC> arso: sudo apt-get remove amarok
[01:51] <arso> BaD_CrC:  thank you.
[01:52] <AlexC_> I've got a cron job that updates an SVN working copy every 4 hours - however, when it does that it obviously resets the ownership of the files to the user who did the checkout. I need to also do "sudo chown www-data /path/to/file.xml" - however, would that not ask for my password?
[01:52] <MBR> do i go to /etc to change booting options ? i want to boot to the console instead of going right in to gnome
[01:52] <arso> how do i assign a hotkey to run Konsole?
[01:52] <Kevin4381> ok; I might just quit using beryl. the flames are fun though :-D
[01:52] <CheesyMonkey> Kevin4381, Fusion is way better :)
[01:52] <Newbie_Dude> CheesyMonkey: even though there's nothing wrong with having KDE stuff running, I agree, I'd rather not have them there :}
[01:52] <AlexC_> Kevin4381: compiz fusion means you can WRITE in fire!
[01:52] <Kevin4381> CheesyMonkey:  - should I UNINSTALL beryl and INSTALL fusion?
[01:52] <arso> !fusion
[01:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fusion - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:53] <Kevin4381> thanks
[01:53] <PriceChild> arso, please don't be cheeky...
[01:53] <arso> PriceChild:  srsly, i dont know :(
[01:53] <ManaPirat> i am using Ubuntu 7.04 and though Universe and the tthird-party repository for wine are enabled "wine" cannot be found
[01:53] <PriceChild> arso, then go to #ubuntu-effects and ask?
[01:54] <arso> ~<~ k
[01:54] <ManaPirat> can somebody give me a hint on that? :-/
[01:54] <PriceChild> ManaPirat, have you "sudo apt-get update"'d ?
[01:54] <ManaPirat> i used the "reload" button inb synaptic
[01:54] <PriceChild> sorry i don't know then
[01:55] <LadyNikon> wine cant be found?
[01:55] <druigrok> hello, i have a specific question, can someone help me?
[01:55] <ManaPirat> yep though unverse was active
[01:55] <AlexC_> druigrok: no one can if you don't ask it
[01:55] <PriceChild> druigrok, ask the question :)
[01:55] <ManaPirat> i instaleld the wine-repos as an attempt to fix that
[01:55] <druigrok> lol
[01:55] <ManaPirat> moment
[01:55] <PriceChild> ManaPirat, actually, can you pastebin your sources.list?
[01:56] <SecrethX> How can I mount an ntfs partition, so its not read-only, but I can write to it?
[01:56] <CheesyMonkey> !ntfs-3g | SecrethX
[01:56] <druigrok> i want to install ubuntu server in our cybercafe. is here a time/cost counting system i can useR?
[01:56] <ubotu> SecrethX: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:56] <Cook> Is there anything similar to MAgic Mail Monitor under Win? Some small POP checker?
[01:56] <ari_stress> SecrethX: i'd suggest you dont. writing to ntfs is still experimental
[01:56] <ManaPirat> PriceChild .. uhm, dont know if thats neccessary .. i just saw that the gpg-kexyfor the wine repos was missing
[01:56] <PriceChild> druigrok, so for example that you can monitor how long people are logged on, and how much they then owe etc. ?
[01:56] <ManaPirat> its found now
[01:56] <SecrethX> CheesyMonkey, yes but its not working.. I used ntfs-config, the first option is disabled and the second one isnt needed
[01:57] <druigrok> yes
[01:57] <PriceChild> ManaPirat, shouldn't have mattered... but working now?
[01:57] <ManaPirat> but shouldn't it be found without any other rpos ?
[01:57] <ManaPirat> yes working now :-)
[01:57] <SecrethX> ari_stress, I really need this ;p I have 152gig that I need to write somewhere :o
[01:57] <stefg> !info gnubiff | Cook
[01:57] <PriceChild> druigrok, googling for you
[01:57] <druigrok> thanks!
[01:57] <ManaPirat> it wants to install ie32-libs .. so this is the workarround for 64-bit ubuntu hm?
[01:58] <ubotu> cook: gnubiff: A mail notification program for GNOME (and others). In component universe, is optional. Version 2.2.3-1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 501 kB, installed size 1636 kB
[01:58] <mike1234> i have just mounted a samba share, but only root can add things to this, is there anyway i can change this
[01:58] <ManaPirat> ubuntu-support is great :-))
[01:58] <Kevin4381> ubuntu seems to be saving my sessions - I told it not to anymore...
[01:58] <SanjayB> SecrethX, Ari: the new ntfs-3g seems to work stable for me now -- have been writing to my windows partition for the past month without any problems\
[01:58] <arso> where can i get help n info on themes/
[01:58] <ari_stress> SecrethX: well you try the ntfs-ng
[01:58] <stefg> !themes | arso
[01:58] <ubotu> arso: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[01:58] <Kevin4381> when I log in, xchat was already running
[01:59] <ari_stress> SanjayB: really? that;s good news!
[01:59] <SecrethX> SanjayB, cool, but I cant mount it without the readonly option it seems :S
[01:59] <SecrethX> ari_stress, ntfs-ng? :S never heared of..
[01:59] <SanjayB> SecrethX: have you installed ntfs-3g -- its available on Synaptic .
[01:59] <SecrethX> SanjayB, yes
[01:59] <arso> stefg:  i am at gnome-look now, umm the main theme that i use, which section would it be in on the left?
[02:00] <SanjayB> ari_stress: yes. was never stable for me earlier, and am quite a noob as well -- but its been pretty straightforward and has worked with the out-of-the-box install off Synaptic .
[02:00] <SanjayB> SecrethX: you might need to make sure your NTFS partition is mounted using ntfs-3g - one sec. lemme see how i do it:- )
[02:00] <mike1234> is there anyway to change the permisions on a monted samba share
[02:00] <PriceChild> druigrok, there seems to be lots of commercial apps which you must pay for... still searching, there must be something out there :)
[02:01] <SecrethX> SanjayB, ok :)
[02:01] <chakka> i have downloaded a freespire cd and is corrupted so will i be able to patch work on the downloaded thing rather than downloading again?????
[02:01] <druigrok> thanks!
[02:01] <druigrok> i hope there is
[02:01] <AlexC_> chakka: gotta get it again,
[02:01] <druigrok> i want to run it on ubuntu terminal server if possible
[02:01] <N-drew> Hi! Does anyone know, how could I change character coding in tty? The Hungarian characters are unreadable.
[02:01] <chakka> is there any other way...
[02:02] <mind_shift> oes ayone use DC_gui? I need some help with the public list, I don't know how to load a hublist
[02:02] <chakka> is there any way Alex
[02:02] <arso> whats GTK ?
[02:02] <arso> !gtk
[02:02] <ubotu> GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of !GNOME and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI
[02:03] <trekkme> is there a tool with wich i can simply download .rm files via rtsp:// protokoll?
[02:03] <chakka> is there any jigdo file for freespire if there from where will i get
[02:03] <SanjayB> SecrethX: Unmount the NTFS part. first. then re-mount using "mount ntfs-3g <device> <mount-point>" or just "ntfs-3g <dev> <mount-point>" - for eg. i use "ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/sda1"
[02:03] <chakka> i have downloaded a freespire cd and is corrupted so will i be able to patch work on the downloaded thing rather than downloading again?????
[02:03] <SecrethX> SanjayB, ok ill try, hold on
[02:03] <AlexC_> !repeat | chakka
[02:03] <ubotu> chakka: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[02:04] <chakka> AlexC : i have downloaded a freespire cd and is corrupted so will i be able to patch work on the downloaded thing rather than downloading again?????.... Is there any freespire jigdo available if yes from where will i get
[02:04] <arso> how can i install a gtk theme?
[02:04] <SanjayB> SecrethX: But I also recommend you read up a little on ntfs-3g and make sure you have other updates, etc. installed before using it . It is still a little risky, I believe .
[02:05] <intgr> Anlar: The only thing I could change from the BIOS was ATA/AHCI and that didn't change anything.
[02:05] <AlexC_> chakka: that's the 3rd time you've said now, I answered you the first time - stop repeating
[02:05] <PriceChild> druigrok, I've found http://openkiosk.sourceforge.net/ which is kde and seems nice to keep things locked down.
[02:05] <druigrok> thanks a lot!
[02:05] <PriceChild> druigrok, I don't think it will manage time etc. though... *looks*
[02:05] <druigrok> i gonna figure it out
[02:05] <chakka> sorry alexc is there anyone else who knows : i have downloaded a freespire cd and is corrupted so will i be able to patch work on the downloaded thing rather than downloading again?????.... Is there any freespire jigdo available if yes from where will i get
[02:05] <SecrethX> SanjayB, yes I know, and I know about ntfs-3g (I've read an article about it) but I never used it, and Im helping a friend of mine who cant speak english :p
[02:05] <PriceChild> druigrok, wait it does :D
[02:05] <PriceChild> druigrok, that looks perfect if you're happy with kde and not gnome?
[02:05] <AlexC_> chakka: 4th time now, stop repeating you're question!
[02:06] <desper> root@SunRay:/opt/SUNWut/sbin# ./utconfig

[02:06] <druigrok> yes
[02:06] <AlexC_> chakka: that does not mean you repeat your question _4_ times, wait.
[02:06] <arso> AlexC_:  can u help me with installing gtk themes?
[02:06] <PriceChild> druigrok, why do you "want" gnome? :P
[02:06] <AlexC_> arso: drag-drop it in to System->Prefs->Themes
[02:06] <Thursley> druigrok, also have a look at http://sourceforge.net/projects/cybera/
[02:06] <PriceChild> druigrok, remember that users will be using what...? firefox... perhaps kopete?
[02:06] <MBR> how to i change the booting options for ubuntu 7.04? i want to boot right to console instead of booting directly in to gnome.
[02:06] <chakka> : i have downloaded a freespire cd and is corrupted so will i be able to patch work on the downloaded thing rather than downloading again?????.... Is there any freespire jigdo available if yes from where will i get
[02:06] <druigrok> wee using cybera now

[02:07] <PriceChild> druigrok, will they even care if its firefox and not konqueror etc. ?
[02:07] <Kevin4381> I can't get gnome to start up now.
[02:07] <AlexC_> PriceChild: mr. chakka here insists on repeating his question every min,it's the 5th time now,
[02:07] <DjViper> !offtopic | chakka
[02:07] <ubotu> chakka: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:07] <Newbie_Dude> How do I run a .PL file? Particularly, I'm installing vmware-server.pl and the instructions say type "sudo vmware-pl" but I get a "command not found"
[02:07] <druigrok> i dont think they will
[02:07] <PriceChild> druigrok, what other apps do they use?
[02:07] <AlexC_> arso: if it's a folder, put it into ~/.themes (you'll have to view hidden files/folders)
[02:07] <druigrok> im gonna try kde openkiosk
[02:07] <Kevin4381> can somebody tell me how to fix ubuntu when it breaks :)
[02:08] <PriceChild> chakka, We don't support freespire here. please try their forums or channels etc.
[02:08] <Kevin4381> it seems like everything I do breaks it.
[02:08] <druigrok> btw i have kde at home
[02:08] <Kevin4381> and its not easy to fix.. I even kept track of what I did this time.. so I could do it backwards
[02:08] <Kevin4381> and its broke again
[02:08] <LiLW> hey I have a problem installing Ubuntu Studio, can someone help me?
[02:08] <druigrok> pricechild, can ubuntu server run kde?
[02:08] <vranac> What was the name of that POP mail checker? Sorry...
[02:08] <AlexC_> druigrok: why would you want a DE on a Server?
[02:08] <PriceChild> druigrok, ubuntu server is just the very bare bones of ubuntu
[02:08] <arso> AlexC_:  how do i view hidden filesp lease?
[02:08] <PriceChild> druigrok, its like a minimal install
[02:09] <Almighty_Henaro> IS there any camcorder through  FireWire programs for linux?
[02:09] <Newbie_Dude> How do I run a .pl file
[02:09] <AlexC_> arso: View->Shown Hidden Files
[02:09] <arso> AlexC_:  thnx a lot
[02:09] <PriceChild> druigrok, ubuntu and kubuntu use the same software sources, and you could even have both gnome and kde installed at once.
[02:09] <druigrok> i will go try some things out now
[02:09] <druigrok> thanks
[02:09] <druigrok> i might be back later

[02:11] <Newbie_Dude> I am trying to install VMWare Server.. During one of the steps it says to type "sudo vmware-install.pl" but I get "command not found" I asked in VMWare they said it's an Ubuntu problem and to ask here. ;_;
[02:11] <PriceChild> Newbie_Dude, sudo ./vmware-install.pl
[02:11] <arso> AlexC_:  i see, i did that, and i put the folder of the theme in .themes, but it still doesnt show up in system>prefs>themes
[02:11] <PriceChild> Newbie_Dude, whilst in the same directory
[02:12] <Newbie_Dude> PriceChild: you are amazing :)
[02:12] <PriceChild> Newbie_Dude, the ./ tells it to look in the same location... otherwise it looks in your PATH
[02:12] <PriceChild> Newbie_Dude, once its installed, if you want to do sudo vmware-config.pl then you DON'T use the ./ as you do want it to look in your PATH and not current directory
[02:13] <MBR> how do you change the boot option to boot directly in to console instead of gnome?
[02:13] <BaD_CrC> *hiss* it's starting to get daylight
[02:13] <Newbie_Dude> what do you mean "in my PATH" you mean in the directory I am currently in in the terminal?
[02:13] <PriceChild> Newbie_Dude, in a terminal type "echo $PATH"
[02:14] <Qeyz> echo $PATH
[02:14] <Seoke> When I try to put in my Talladega Nights DVD I get the error "Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume 'Talladega_Nights'."  What should I do to fix this?

[02:17] <pringat> Anlar: can you give me more info please?
[02:17] <stefg> nikin: hdparm and libata don't along. Doesn't work if your drive is handled as scsi

[02:19] <Qeyz> arso: try to browse into the theme details
[02:19] <newbie77> it doesn't say anything
[02:19] <abedo> ari_stress: it's called that , I can login to my friend's PC via ssh to a server
[02:19] <newbie77> it just won't open
[02:20] <arso> PriceChild: Qeyz i used install theme, and clicked on the .tar.gz and it said theme installed correctly, but it still doenst show up
[02:20] <stefg> nikin: stop worrying, all is good :-)
[02:20] <PriceChild> arso, I don't know then sorry.
[02:20] <ari_stress> abedo: so you want people to be able to login to your box? sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[02:20] <PriceChild> arso, sure the individual items aren't there?
[02:20] <nikin> stefg: so 21 MB/sec is the most i can get out of my hd?
[02:20] <arso> PriceChild: what do u mean?
[02:20] <PriceChild> even though it doesn't show a one on the main bit
[02:20] <ubutom> newbie77, if you have synaptic open, close it
[02:20] <PriceChild> arso, well there are several pieces to a theme
[02:21] <Qeyz> arso, it might not a "full theme", you can make sure by browse the Theme Details
[02:21] <stefg> nikin: what type of hd? how old? waht's the PCI us speed?
[02:21] <arso> PriceChild:  the ones inside the folder after i uncompress it?
[02:21] <arso> Qeyz:  ok.
[02:21] <PriceChild> arso, no, on the themes gui
[02:21] <Qeyz> just click the theme details or details button, something like that i guess
[02:21] <arso> Qeyz: PriceChild: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/TGT4-Chrome?content=62674 this is the theme
[02:21] <newbie77> i've restarted system, open nothing
[02:22] <arso> PriceChild:  but its not showing up on the themes gui
[02:22] <newbie77> still, it won't run
[02:22] <nikin> stefg: p3 board... ATA66 , hd is Maxtor 120Gb  8 Mb cache
[02:22] <arso> PriceChild:  brb, toielt.

[02:23] <AlexC_> Hey, if I write a bash script to update an SVN working copy and then change some permissions on a file - do I put it in /usr/bin ?
[02:23] <wonka071> hello all
[02:23] <nikin> 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801AA IDE (rev 02)
[02:23] <erUSUL> AlexC_: /usr/local/bin/
[02:23] <ari_stress> AlexC_: it's better in /usr/local/bin
[02:23] <seon> hello i had a windows partition and i was beginning an ubuntu install in a free partition but i miss my click and ubuntu has formatted my windows partition , can i found a linux software to recover it
[02:24] <PriceChild> seon, i'd advise you to send it off to a data recovery centre if its really worth it...
[02:24] <AlexC_> erUSUL: ari_stress ok thanks for that - also, in my script I will have chown group /path/to/file. A normal user wont have permission to do that, how can I in the bash script check if the user has permission etc?
[02:24] <arso> PriceChild:  ok, back.
[02:24] <wonka071> is anybody using ubuntu ultimate gamer ed ?
[02:24] <arso> PriceChild:  so is it a complete theme?
[02:24] <seon> PriceChild> ok
[02:25] <newbie77> do i have to reinstall add/remove?
[02:25] <PriceChild> arso, I don't know
[02:25] <nikin> stefg :( i as thinking i could get around 60 ... :( so my only home is SCSI
[02:25] <nikin> hope*
[02:25] <PriceChild> newbie77, It should be there if you're looking in the right place
[02:25] <PriceChild> newbie77, whoops not to you
[02:25] <ari_stress> AlexC_: as long as the user has the permission, the script will run OK. otherwise it will error
[02:25] <AlexC_> cool ok,
[02:25] <PriceChild> arso, it should be there if you're looking int he right place, choose edit theme or whatever and use that to check all the pieces
[02:25] <ubutom> newbie77, if you have synaptic open, close it, as there can always run just one instance of the package application.
[02:26] <arso> PriceChild:  but the theme isnt getting added to the list, so i cant edit it, it says the theme was added correctly, but its NOT showing up in the list
[02:26] <ubutom> newbie77, then try to open add/remove again
[02:26] <stefg> nikin: it's not the disk, it's the speed of the bus
[02:26] <newbie77> i'm not running synaptic
[02:26] <PriceChild> arso, there isn't just one thing to look through though
[02:26] <seon> last question : i need to install an ubuntu server, but in the partitionning i can only have three partition why?
[02:26] <PriceChild> arso, there's several lists, icons, borders etc.e tc.
[02:27] <Qeyz> arso: just choose any other theme and click on details or whatever
[02:27] <arso> Qeyz:  ok, and?
[02:27] <Qeyz> arso,and try to find your theme there
[02:27] <arcad3> how can i setup the refresh rate to a bigger value
[02:27] <kidbuntu> !frostwire
[02:27] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[02:27] <ari_stress> seon: how many partitions it will show up you expect?
[02:27] <nkbreau> just installed ubuntu... can somone reccomend a good mail client i can use to interface to my gmail account ?
[02:27] <nikin> stefg : i see... so unless i get an IDE controller for AGP :) i cant do better... or if i strow my dual P3 maschine from the 5th floor and get something with PCI-E :D
[02:28] <Qeyz> arso, just browse it carefully and see if there's something like the theme you've installed there

[02:28] <Qeyz> arso, to see you made it
[02:28] <newbie77> clicked Add/Remove, > "Starting Add/Remove...." > nothing happened
[02:28] <nikin> stefg: i see.. but if the bus is the limit... what is the diferencE?
[02:28] <ari_stress> seon: if you have already used all the partition, you cannot add new partition
[02:29] <arso> Qeyz:  too bad the theme sucks :P
[02:29] <stefg> nikin: you're using two channels
[02:29] <arso> Qeyz:  i have to find another, lol
[02:29] <arso> !h.264
[02:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about h.264 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:29] <ari_stress> arso: lol

[02:29] <arso> Qeyz:  yep , but i know how to do it now.
[02:29] <seon> ari_stress> what is all the partition, i have 80 GB, and after swap , / and /home i have 40gb FREE
[02:29] <arso> can anyone help me with h.264 codecs/?
[02:29] <arcad3> !refresh rate
[02:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about refresh rate - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:29] <nikin> stefg : and so i can get about 150% of the speed of 1 hd... or 200 ?
[02:29] <delphine> LUT
[02:30] <seon> ari_stress> maybe i have a limit number?
[02:30] <SoulPropagation> So my Qemu VM (Windows XP) can't talk to the host or the internet, I'm using TAP, what should I do?
[02:30] <Qeyz> arso: have you tried ffmpeg?
[02:30] <delphine> ?
[02:30] <arso> Qeyz:  no, i'll get it now.
[02:30] <arcad3> how can i modify the refresh rate for my PC that is using Ubuntu?
[02:30] <arso> Qeyz:  its in synaptic?
[02:30] <arcad3> from 50 to 85 Hz?
[02:30] <stefg> nikin: closer to 150%, but seek time will still be the same. STR (sustained transfer rate) is not everything
[02:30] <Qeyz> arso: yuppp
[02:30] <delphine> YOPP
[02:31] <Qeyz> arso: or you can type in the console something like: apt-cache search ffmpeg
[02:31] <delphine> ^^^
[02:31] <Qeyz> arso, don't forget the sudo
[02:31] <Qeyz> :p
[02:31] <ari_stress> seon: you can always backup your data to another pc, and install new into the disk, but this time make the partitions you need
[02:31] <delphine> bom chika wawa
[02:31] <arcad3> !ubunutu alien
[02:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubunutu alien - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <arso> Qeyz:  ok, i'll try now
[02:32] <nikin> stefg: i wanted this speed for transfering huge files over LAN ..
[02:32] <seon> ari_stress> i understand but why i can have many partition
[02:32] <arso> Qeyz: sudo: apt_cache: command not found
[02:32] <flush> yo anyone familiar with bnc
[02:32] <stefg> nikin: 100M-lan typically gives you 3-6 Mb/s. simply stop worrying
[02:33] <Qeyz> arso, if you're not familiar with the terminal, just use synaptic instead
[02:33] <nikin> stefg : gigabit LAN is also limited by bus?
[02:33] <stefg> nikin: of course. Gigbit lan in a P3 is nonsense
[02:34] <arso> Qeyz:  ok.
[02:34] <ari_stress> btw, anyone using ubuntu with gnome in a notebook now?
[02:34] <arso> Qeyz:  synaptic tells me i already have the ffmpeg codec library
[02:35] <nikin> stefg :D good to know :D hmmm , now i understand that i shouldnt go to the pub every time i had Hardware based classes :D
[02:35] <Qeyz> ari_stress: i think almost everyone here using it right now
[02:35] <arso> Qeyz:  but mplayer cant play a h.264 mkv
[02:35] <SoulPropagation> ari_stress: yes right now why

[02:35] <_wattazoum_> ari_stress, yep
[02:35] <ari_stress> my battery indication said that the remaining power is 1 hour 30 minutes, but the "green" color on is only a bit left
[02:35] <SoulPropagation> ari_stress: batteries are weird
[02:35] <Qeyz> arso: hmmmm, maybe it's on another codec list
[02:36] <abedo> ari_stress: I 'm behind NAT ??
[02:36] <arso> Qeyz:  i dont know any :(
[02:36] <Qeyz> arso: you better googling for it first, coz i think i forgot the package name, sorry
[02:36] <ari_stress> SoulPropagation: i guess so, that's why i immediately plugged the power on. i dont want to take any chances of sudden death :D
[02:36] <arso> Qeyz:  ok, np
[02:36] <SoulPropagation> ari_stress: :D
[02:36] <ari_stress> abedo: what do you mean?
[02:37] <SoulPropagation> So my Qemu VM (Windows XP) can't talk to the host or the internet, I'm using TAP, is there anything I can do? I set a static IP and it sees the connection

[02:50] <stefg> banangroda: freenode. just type /j #winehq in your client
[02:50] <arso> enable frame dropping
[02:50] <arso> and extreme frame dropping
[02:51] <arso> umm how do i make the video stretch to the full screen while in fullscreen?
[02:51] <arso> it remains in its own resolution
[02:51] <Qeyz> arso, change the video out to xv
[02:52] <arso> Qeyz:  ok thnx, whats the difference between all these video out?
[02:52] <CTho> is it really intentional that "e asdf &" kills your shell?
[02:52] <CTho> (assuming you forgot to alias e to emacs)
[02:52] <_rd_> synaptic has lost its index for debs, how can this be reindexed?
[02:52] <Qeyz> arso, I dunno, I'm just exploring it a bit
[02:52] <royel> Tama00: I believe you need to use a login on windows that has the same credentials as the samba login
[02:53] <Qeyz> :D
[02:53] <Newbie_Dude> Is VMWare gonna kill my computer, if I think it sucks how good is Ubuntu at removing programs?
[02:53] <Chousuke> Hmmh
[02:53] <secretdoor> hi!
[02:53] <Tama00> royel, the login on my other ubuntu pc is a diffierent name than the username on this ubuntu pc and that works..
[02:53] <Tama00> its strange really..
[02:53] <Chousuke> Newbie_Dude: VMWare is outside ubuntu's control, since it doesn't come as a .deb
[02:53] <arso> Qeyz:  i see, is a list of shortcuts for mplayer available on the main site? for increaising volume etc
[02:53] <Chousuke> Newbie_Dude: You have to trust the vmware uninstaller script
[02:53] <Newbie_Dude> Chousuke: scary, well the damage is done, already installed >_<
[02:54] <Chousuke> Newbie_Dude: IME it works though
[02:54] <royel> Tama00: yeah, but the samba login is the one that counts
[02:54] <Qeyz> arso, try to read the man pages
[02:54] <arso> Qeyz:  ok.
[02:54] <_rd_> Newbie_Dude,   /usr/bin/vmware-uninstall.pl will do the trick
[02:54] <arso> !man
[02:54] <Qeyz> arso: type: "man mplayer" (with no quote) on the terminal
[02:54] <ubotu> The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[02:55] <newbie77> gyach-e broke my gnome-app-install??
[02:55] <Tama00> royel, meh i think ive fixed it by writing guest ok = yes in the samba config under my shares
[02:55] <Tama00> thanks anyways royel :)
[02:55] <royel> Tama00: yw, good luck
[02:55] <Tama00> :)
[02:55] <kazukisan-lap> I am trying to play a avi
[02:55] <kazukisan-lap> mt
[02:56] <Newbie_Dude> _rd_: thanks, i dont have a reason to uninstall it yet, but just incase I'll do that :)
[02:56] <stefg> http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html#research
[02:56] <kazukisan-lap> I am trying to play a avi file but the video will show up for a sec but then will go black when i click on the program and only play the sound, i tried vlc and movie player, any suggestions
[02:56] <gruelius> can thunderbird import mail/address books from Outlook Exchange?
[02:57] <SoulPropagation> So my Qemu VM (Windows XP) can't talk to the host or the internet, I'm using TAP, is there anything I can do? I set a static IP and it sees the connection, but it only gets a ping back from itself (<IP_ADDRESS>) not the host (<IP_ADDRESS>). Can somebody please help me?
[02:57] <Qeyz> kazukisan-lap: try mplayer or xine
[02:57] <stefg> gruelius: you have to convert it with the windows version of thunderbird, then import the windows profile into the linux version, iirc
[02:57] <Tama00> royel, screw windows if it wont access my files it can miss out
[02:57] <Tama00> stupid windows..
[02:57] <arso> Qeyz:  did u make ur own shortcutS? or do u use the defaults?
[02:57] <Qeyz> kazukisan-lap: and try downloading the codec
[02:57] <gruelius> stefg: ty
[02:57] <anandanbu> How do i install vmware in Ubuntu
[02:58] <SoulPropagation> buy, download, run installer anandanbu
[02:58] <Qeyz> arso: for what?
[02:58] <arso> Qeyz:  mplayer
[02:58] <Qeyz> arso, mplayer?
[02:58] <stefg> !vmware
[02:58] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[02:58] <dissection> I have a question. When I opened a folder in my NTFS partition, it said could not display all contents. Why is that?
[02:58] <Qeyz> arso, I'm using the default
[02:58] <anandanbu> But i heard there is an open source version of it
[02:58] <arso> Qeyz:  where r they listed :( i checked the man , didnt understand anthing
[02:59] <arso> Qeyz:  i just know space is pause :P
[02:59] <ari_stress> dissection: strange
[02:59] <arso> Qeyz:  i just need to know volume up/down and fullscreen
[02:59] <Qeyz> arso: f = fullscreen , 9 for decrease vol, 0 for increase
[02:59] <arso> thanks :)
[02:59] <arso> a lot.
[02:59] <arso>  this movie is amazing
[03:00] <Qeyz> arso, tou're welcome, again :D
[03:00] <arso> great quality, the codecs seem (Y)
[03:00] <kazukisan-lap> qeyz: i downloaded the codecs with movie player, unless im missing something
[03:00] <Qeyz> kazukisan-lap: try installing all the gstreamer plugins
[03:00] <royel> Tama00: lol
[03:00] <arso> Qeyz:  dont u get bored dealing with us noobs?
[03:01] <dissection> ari_stress: Looks like remounting it fixed it. It showed 9GB in the folder earlier, and now shows 12GB. Strange indeed.
[03:01] <Qeyz> arso: nope, glad to see linux work for you
[03:01] <royel> Tama00: I use samba all the time, it is a little bit tricky, but well worth the time to set it up proper.
[03:01] <Qeyz> :)
[03:01] <arso> :) great.
[03:01] <arso> btw, do u know how i can find the current fps ?
[03:02] <arso> of the video playing.
[03:02] <Tama00> royel, it shouldnt be tricky:(
[03:02] <_rd_> Newbie_Dude, be sure to chk /etc/vmware after unistall to be sure all the files are removed
[03:02] <royel> Tama00: it wouldnt be linux! ;)
[03:02] <Tama00> royel, then they shouldnt call it ubuntu linux for human beings lol
[03:03] <royel> Tama00: good point, but have you tried many other distro's?
[03:03] <Qeyz> arso, oopps, sorry, I now nothing about that
[03:03] <arso> Qeyz: i just got an error,too many video packets in the buffer. and the video stopped.
[03:03] <Tama00> royel, sure have
[03:03] <Qeyz> arso: try to disable the extreme frame droppping
[03:04] <arso> its disabled.
[03:04] <royel> Tama00: then you know, this one does a pretty good job of simplifying things for dumb human beings :)
[03:04] <arso> anyway its fine now.
[03:04] <Tama00> royel, its not good enough if i can get samba working to share stuff on windows
[03:04] <arso> i'll be back later guys. time to enjoy some movies. thanks for all the help.
[03:04] <Tama00> so its got a while to go yet
[03:04] <arso> oh shit.
[03:05] <arso> i need to do that do
[03:05] <arso> file sharing network with a windows laptop
[03:05] <younghacker> is postgres capable of accepting xml data?
[03:05] <arso> Qeyz:  can u help me with that?
[03:05] <royel> Tama00: you can't get access to the shares from windows?
[03:06] <Tama00> yup
[03:06] <Tama00> but linux works
[03:06] <Qeyz> arso, sharing file from linux or from windows?
[03:06] <royel> Tama00: I thought you just wanted to be rid of the pesky uname pword prompt
[03:06] <fatbrain> Hello, can I detect if the GPU in my computer is sitting in an AGP slot or a PCIe slot?
[03:06] <Tama00> royel, well yeah, it doesnt work cause it wants a user/password
[03:06] <arso> Qeyz:  umm from windows, i want to access the shared documents on the windows laptop
[03:06] <Tama00> but linux doesnt ask for the user/password
[03:06] <Qeyz> arso, my suggestion would be: google, since it might take some long step*
[03:07] <arso> fatbrain:  open the case and take a look?
[03:07] <halotracer> guys i am nu to ubuntu could tell me how to login in as root
[03:07] <arso> Qeyz:  darn :(
[03:07] <royel> Tama00: an you dont know what username password to use?
[03:07] <Tama00> arso, lol i probably got the same problem
[03:07] <Qeyz> arso, and I'm just got to logoff right now
[03:07] <fatbrain> halotracer: I dont want to void their warranty
[03:07] <arso> Tama00:  but i didnt try anything yet.
[03:07] <Qeyz> arso, sorry dude
[03:07] <Tama00> royel, no i dont want a username/password at all
[03:07] <arso> Qeyz:  its fine, thnx for all the help. ttyl
[03:07] <Tama00> like the other linux box doesnt ask
[03:07] <Tama00> and it works fine
[03:07] <Arso> Tama00:  was it complicated setting it up?
[03:07] <halotracer> thanx but
[03:08] <Arso> lol harry potter releases today.
[03:08] <Tama00> Arso, i just clicked a few things and my ubuntu shares on my pc work on my other ubuntu computer but fail on my windows computer
[03:08] <Qeyz> arso, if you just want to browse windows share, go to Location >> Network
[03:08] <Tama00> Arso, i give up haha
[03:08] <Arso> Tama00:  shit, i wont even try then :P
[03:08] <Arso> Qeyz:  ok, i'll try
[03:08] <PriceChild> Arso, please watch the language :)
[03:09] <Arso> PriceChild:  ok. :)
[03:09] <Arso> Qeyz:  location ?
[03:09] <Qeyz> arso, or just type smb:// on the file manager

[03:09] <Tama00> Arso, lol
[03:09] <fatbrain> heh

[03:10] <Arso> Qeyz:  coz its just  empty right now, but the laptop is switched off right now

[03:16] <bluefox83> how can i get Places->Network to show all systems on my network that are running nfs? >.>
[03:16] <rolfen> anyone here took any sort of linux certification?
[03:16] <rolfen> i'm thinking of one
[03:16] <bluefox83> i doubt it, why?
[03:16] <rolfen> i'm thinking of taking one... for the job
[03:16] <Arso> m11:  it worked, thanks a lot.
[03:17] <bluefox83> cool
[03:17] <bluefox83> i was unaware there were any linux certifications
[03:17] <rolfen> i wonder if i'm able too though :/
[03:17] <rolfen> yeah i'm sure there are... from novell and from redhat... and probably others too
[03:18] <Arso> it feels great to have everything finally up and working :D
[03:18] <HEP85> bluefox83: nfs is not browseable

[03:18] <PriceChild> PriceChild, apt-cache search
[03:18] <bluefox83> HEP85, why the heck not? there's an option in the networking thingy to make it announce itself on the network...
[03:19] <rolfen> okay PriceChild
[03:19] <SoulPropagation> So my Qemu VM (Windows XP) can't talk to the host or the internet, I'm using TAP, is there anything I can do? I set a static IP and it sees the connection, but it only gets a ping back from itself (<IP_ADDRESS>) not the host (<IP_ADDRESS>). Can somebody please help me?
[03:19] <m11> // not ///
[03:19] <HEP85> bluefox83: well, then it is kind of a workaround. the protocol itself isn't browseable
[03:19] <bluefox83> HEP85, bummer
[03:20] <bit0> anyone use OpenOffice.org Base?
[03:21] <SecrethX> is there any way that you can recreate your /etc/fstab automatically?
[03:21] <bluefox83> SecrethX, probably not..but you might try to google it...

[03:22] <vinay> i used "services-admin" to shut down a few services... suddenly now when I try to run services-admin, it says  "The configuration could not be loaded." .. i get the same if i run from command line as root.... what could be the crucial "service" i shut down ? :-S

To speed up 3D a little I installed "xorg-driver-fglrx" and put "fglrx"  in the "Driver" line of xorg.conf. But X doesn't start (I assume the card isn't supported). After changing the "Driver"  line back to "ati" X starts fine but now `glxears` is hardly moving. Any idea why?

And once, when i installed DSL on one old pc, and joined to irc with a cli irc client that was by default in ids, there was a function that gave me a suggesti
[03:29] <kel39> on of a complete command when i've typed a part of a command. How could i enable this in Ubuntu. thx :P

[03:34] <eBoxNet> hello ppl
[03:34] <jmchaffie> Wondering if anyone has had same experience and it's something simple I probably have overlooked.
[03:35] <royel> jmchaffie: my best guess would be that you need to enable port forwarding on your router, possibly even dmz
[03:35] <kel39> royel: and bluefox83: oke it's working with tab comletion, but... for example my situation with Gnu/Hurd LiveCD cli, giving a suggestion for another command near a wrong typed one, i dont c it working in ubuntu heh, thats why i ask.
[03:36] <SoulPropagation> Can anyone here help me with my qemu networking problem?
[03:36] <jmchaffie> port forwarding is enabled, however I'm unsure of dmz. I will have to check that, had not heard of that until now.
[03:36] <royel> jmchaffie: only use it if your absolutely sure you understand it
[03:36] <jmchaffie> I will have to research it before I do it. I've not heard of it until you mentioned it just now.
[03:37] <bluefox83> neither have i, but it sounds very handy
[03:37] <kel39> indeed
[03:37] <jmchaffie> It's just odd that everything seems to work great, and I get "touches" from the shoutcast server (yp server) but nobody can get to me)

[03:38] <duelboot> what is the proper syntax for /etc/fstab to mount a second disk (ext3) to allow read write for all users?
[03:38] <bulmer> jmchaffie, do you have a firewall rule that prevents those ports from being hit?

[03:38] <vlt> stefg: Yes, probably using MESA, but why? It did fine before I changed xorg.conf to "fglrx" and then _back_ to "ati". Any idea how to re-activate te old settings where glxgears moved smoothly?
[03:39] <erUSUL> duelboot: no possible, just mount it normally and make dirs inside the partition that you can chown or chmod
[03:39] <stefg> Meyvn: seems more like the mbr portion of grub got damaged. Try to install a fresh copy to MBR
[03:39] <jmchaffie> Hmmm... I don't think I even have my software firewall running right now, I checked services, but I will double check. And I do have port forwarding working on the router for 8000-8001.
[03:39] <bluefox83> duelboot, mine is:/dev/hdb1       /d2             ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro      0       1
[03:39] <SoulPropagation> So nobody can help me with qemu tap networking? Nobody? At all?
[03:39] <Meyvn> stefg: thanks will try that
[03:39] <royel> Meyvn: perhaps your key is not working at all, tested it to be sure it works?
[03:39] <trippndarift> Hey there! I was wondering about some synaptic script I installed for Nautilus. I can't seem to find the exact package but it is the package that adds the "Rotate Image" option to the right click. Does anyone know much about this? What I need to know is what script it is and if it has a homepage and on top of that if the rotation of images with this Nautilus option has any negative effects on the quality of the image?
[03:40] <bluefox83> SoulPropagation, no, this really isn't a channel for advanced users...
[03:40] <pawan> how to manully connect to broadband
[03:40] <stefg> vlt: i don't touch ati with a 10ft. pole, because i know how hard their drivers suck on linux. SO no idea from my side , sry
[03:40] <enry> enibody know how to stop forever a program upgrade????
[03:40] <enry> anybody
[03:40] <Meyvn> royel: heh, it doesn't seem to work in emacs either
[03:40] <kyncani> fdr: apt-cache search mdf
[03:40] <royel> Meyvn: unplug the keyboard maybe?
[03:40] <bulmer> enry disconnect your internet connectivity :)
[03:40] <royel> Meyvn: or use a hammer? :)
[03:41] <vlt> stefg: Ok, thank you.
[03:41] <fdr> kyncani : thanks!
[03:41] <Meyvn> ill' try that :)
[03:41] <kyncani> fdr: np :)
[03:41] <bluefox83> i think they mean set it so it wont upgrade while it still elts others upgrade
[03:41] <pawan> how to create shortcut to pppoe connection on desktop
[03:41] <SoulPropagation> bluefox83: it's not THAT advanced, just trying to do seamless virtualization, windows-on-ubuntu
[03:41] <enry> bulmet it's a drastic decision
[03:41] <enry> bulmer it's a drastic decision
[03:41] <bulmer> enry yes indeed
[03:41] <royel> Meyvn: might be able to use the number pad direction keys, be sure the numlock is OFF an they should act as the direction keys
[03:41] <Enselic__> I think I have messed up my system, can anyone locate modules.d? I think I'm missing that one
[03:42] <jmchaffie> I'm using Ubuntu feisty, and I double checked package manager, and I don't even see a firewall installed! woof...
[03:42] <enry> bulmet i jut want that the upgrade daemon stopped to booring me
[03:42] <stefg> !firewall
[03:42] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[03:42] <Enselic__> jmchaffie: you have iptables
[03:42] <jmchaffie> oh yes of course
[03:42] <duelboot> thx erUSUL (that's how I was doing it...was hoping for an automated way...oh well)..bluefox83 still doesn't work exactly like I'd like
[03:42] <bluefox83> SoulPropagation, most people in here are trying to get partitions mounted, or sound or video working correctly...not a lot of people doing virtualization with proprietary software
[03:42] <jmchaffie> I'm unfamiliar with all of the command though I must admit
[03:43] <bluefox83> duelboot, that's how i have mine set in fstab, it automounts during bootup
[03:43] <kyncani> Enselic__: apt-file search modules.d
[03:43] <Meyvn> royel: ill shut down an replug keyboard, first if it works I'll let you know :)
[03:43] <ari_stress> hello guys, how do i know the version of gnome i'm using? i'm on feisty
[03:43] <duelboot> bluefox83, didn't want it to just automount...wanted it to give full permissions to the user mounting it
[03:43] <bulmer> enry, if you right click on that icon on the top right regarding update and modify setting for updates..unclick it..works
[03:44] <bluefox83> duelboot, mine does that as well
[03:44] <SoulPropagation> bluefox83: So? It's a Ubuntu support channel. I'm using Ubuntu, and I need support. Where else should I go? ;)
[03:44] <duelboot> bluefox83, is it your secondary drive?
[03:44] <stefg> ari_stress: did you ever bother t look at your menus before typing to your irc client? :-)
[03:44] <bluefox83> SoulPropagation, mmm...my guess would be the support channel for the software you are using...
[03:44] <bulmer> jmchaffie, type iptables -vL  to see if any rules are set
[03:44] <SoulPropagation> bluefox83: Worth a shot, it was tumbleweeds before though
[03:44] <ari_stress> stefg: which menu?
[03:45] <ari_stress> stefg: oh about gnome
[03:45] <ari_stress> sorry :D
[03:45] <stefg> omg
[03:45] <bluefox83> SoulPropagation, yeah that happens sometimes...
[03:45] <SoulPropagation> bluefox83: Yeah, I know.
[03:45] <arcade> SoulPropagation: hmm.
[03:45] <morgan> hello!
[03:45] <arcade> SoulPropagation: Do you have a dhcp server on that network?
[03:45] <SoulPropagation> arcade: yes, my router.
[03:45] <duelboot> sorry bluefox83 I accidentally quit...is that your second drive?
[03:45] <arcade> SoulPropagation: Well, is that on the TAP-network?
[03:46] <arcade> SoulPropagation: I mean, you use TUN/TAP, or whatever, and that talks to your ubuntu-box ..
[03:46] <ari_stress> !pessulus
[03:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pessulus - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:46] <bluefox83> duelboot, yeah, hence the mount point is /d2
[03:46] <SoulPropagation> the only things on the TAP network are Ubuntu and the Qemu box.
[03:46] <duelboot> bluefox83, excuse me :)
[03:46] <arcade> SoulPropagation: .. and no dhcp-server? :P
[03:46] <CTho|away> sp3000: the sometimes part is fun
[03:46] <Dag_> Hello, can anyone give me some assistance here? :P
[03:47] <SoulPropagation> arcade: Static IP's on Ubuntu and Qemu
[03:47] <jmchaffie> well, there are three entries, INPUT, OUTPUT, FORWARD, with "policy ACCEPT 0 packets, o bytes) and no information below the headers on all of those.
[03:47] <rolfen> Dag_ whats your problem
[03:47] <bluefox83> brb i'ma restart X in the hopes the latest compiz upgrade will solve this wicked cpu eating compiz is doing
[03:47] <stefg> !anyone | Dag_
[03:47] <ubotu> Dag_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:47] <Dag_> rolfen: where you from?
[03:47] <sp3000> CTho|away: it's so much fun it's really nothing to do with apache2.2-common's badh_completion.d or anything, either :D
[03:48] <rolfen> Dag_ lol, thats your problem? i'm from somewhere in the middle east...
[03:48] <SoulPropagation> arcade: as a general rule I'll use static IPs whenever I can.
[03:48] <arcade> SoulPropagation: I'm not sure how VM's and so forth works, but I would expect your machine to talk to itself through some virtual interface shared between the machines, and the one of the hosts doing the routing, and providing dhcp to the other machines.  I may, however, be completely wrong in how it works.
[03:48] <Dag_> I'm going to buy a Canon EOS 400D and I wonder how will that go as I have Ubuntu, like connecting the camera to my PC, will it find it? And is Ubuntu great for photographers? I'm used to Windows and Mac, but I hate them both.
[03:48] <arcade> SoulPropagation: Or static IP's, as long as the 'host OS' provides the routing.
[03:48] <SoulPropagation> arcade: I followed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo :p
[03:49] <amexa> hello
[03:49] <arcade> SoulPropagation: I know how it works with SOlaris and zones, and there you have virtual interfaces that is inherited by the guest-solarises.  No clue in your environment though.
[03:49] <jmchaffie> well, there are three entries, INPUT, OUTPUT, FORWARD, with "policy ACCEPT 0 packets, o bytes) and no information below the headers on all of those.
[03:49] <stefg> !hardware | Dag_
[03:49] <ubotu> Dag_: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:49] <stefg> !gimp
[03:49] <ubotu> gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information.
[03:49] <Dag_> What does !hardware | Dag_ mean?
[03:49] <jmchaffie> bulmer: (sorry, forgot name intro) well, there are three entries, INPUT, OUTPUT, FORWARD, with "policy ACCEPT 0 packets, o bytes) and no information below the headers on all of those.
[03:49] <rolfen> Dag_ well you wont be easily able to run photoshop on ubuntu. there's a way but it involves wine and a couple of hacks, and is not easy
[03:49] <Dag_> I don't want Adobe Photoshop :)
[03:49] <royel> Dag_: it's a command to the irc bot, ubotu
[03:49] <stefg> Dag_: there's a list of all hardware founf to be ubuntu-compatible
[03:49] <bulmer> jmchaffie, okay well that tells you, no rules so it is open
[03:50] <rolfen> ok good then :)
[03:50] <Dag_> I want a better program or as good as program as Adobe Photoshop but just a program that is made for Linux.
[03:50] <Dag_> Same with Album Gallery.
[03:50] <DBLue> The Gimp
[03:50] <Dag_> digiKam & The Gimp?
[03:50] <sp3000> 1) ingredients: one shell
[03:50] <Dag_> Good choice?
[03:50] <Dag_> That is what I've got right now.
[03:50] <arcade> SoulPropagation: heh.  Look at the 'cons' for the TAP network
[03:50] <amexa> since i have installed beyl, some button have gone in the main panel such as network icon and gdesklets icon(gdesklets is running, though the icon doesn't load in the login). does anyone know how to help me??
[03:50] <jmchaffie> bulmer: ok that's good. Well, I'm stumped then. I've worked on it for hours. a couple of days now actually. I guess I'll keep poking at it. Research the dmz thing.
[03:50] <stefg> !beryl | amexa
[03:50] <ubotu> amexa: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment.   :D
[03:52] <arcade> Dag_: Very well.
[03:53] <Meyvn> royel: it's working again, solution: 1) hold keyboard upside down 2) shake it :D
[03:53] <jmchaffie> bulmer: It's a Buffalo AirStation
[03:53] <SoulPropagation> arcade: Really. I've been trying to get help for like 4 hours now,
[03:53] <arcade> Dag_: Haven't had a single problem with it
[03:53] <bluefox83> Dag_, should mount like a filesystem...
[03:53] <arcade> Dag_: plugged it in, and it worked.
[03:53] <Dag_> arcade: awsome. how does it work with digiKam?
[03:53] <sp3000> but on feisty when I do that a few (one to a dozen) times, the shell decides to exit normally at some random iteration
[03:53] <royel> Meyvn: lol, good job!
[03:53] <arcade> Dag_: perfectly well.
[03:53] <Dag_> arcade: great! :D
[03:53] <jmchaffie> bulmer: Also, one protocol I'm not familiar with is UPnP - it is enabled, can this cause any grief?
[03:53] <arcade> Dag_: Not a single hickup.  It _Just Works_(TM) :-)
[03:53] <royel> Meyvn: a Hammer would have been more fun imo :)
[03:53] <Dag_> I'm really happy I went over to Ubuntu, really.
[03:53] <bulmer> jmchaffie, i dont know about that protocol either
[03:54] <Dag_> It's so much better then anything I've had.
[03:54] <Meyvn> royel: often the problem is simpler then I think :P i was thinking something was wrong with GRUB, when it in fact was fine. thanks a lot )
[03:54] <stefg> Mevyn: a variation on the '3 inch method'... lift device 3 inches, drop it
[03:54] <DBLue> Why i can't unmount any partition, i get error in Ubuntu Gnome Desktop
[03:54] <bluefox83> jmchaffie, i believe UPnP is plug and play O.o
[03:54] <royel> Meyvn: anytime :)
[03:54] <Meyvn> royel: and yes a hammer would have been more fun ^^
[03:54] <royel> Meyvn: it's not too late!!! :)
[03:55] <Meyvn> been using this keyboard for like 3 years, but i clean it once in a while
[03:55] <jmchaffie> bulmer: I figured it was... just wasn't sure if it would cause issues. I have everything setup static though.
[03:55] <Meyvn> it likes my crumbs
[03:55] <DBLue> Are there any Linux Keyboards?
[03:55] <Dag_> good question dblue!
[03:55] <rolfen> DBLue what whould that be?
[03:56] <royel> Meyvn: I been using the same keyboard for close to 10 years, I have bought dozens of replacements an never liked the feel of any new ones, I will die when this one gives out.
[03:56] <Dag_> keyboard without "windows" buttons
[03:56] <Dag_> hahaha
[03:56] <Meyvn> royel: lol
[03:56] <rolfen> ah ok :)
[03:56] <rolfen> with a little pinguin instead...
[03:56] <Dag_> yes!
[03:56] <Dag_> perfect
[03:56] <DBLue> That is Cool
[03:56] <Meyvn> royel: yeah, i <3 my keyboard
[03:56] <DBLue> Maybe with Tux on it
[03:56] <Dag_> ill start production right away
[03:56] <Dag_> u guys buy?
[03:56] <Dag_> :D
[03:56] <Dag_> make me rich
[03:56] <razorx> annyone played doom3 on ubuntu ?
[03:57] <Dag_> not me
[03:57] <m11> dblue, i use black marker ;)
[03:57] <rolfen> well... if it's not too expensive...
[03:57] <stefg> http://www.linuxfocus.org/common/images2/article373/tuxgraphicssolution.jpg
[03:57] <Dag_> hm, it will be cheap!
[03:57] <Dag_> lol
[03:57] <bulmer> jmchaffie, does your AP allocates or reserves those ip range as static ?
[03:58] <kenro_> Anyone know the appropriate #irc for direct connect?
[03:58] <Gasten> Hey! How do you exit X?
[03:58] <akos> gasten alt+ctrl+f1
[03:58] <rolfen> Gasten you want to go back to the TTY?
[03:59] <akos> Gasten, /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:59] <rolfen> yeah that's it like akos said
[03:59] <Gasten> akos: Sure, I know. But I want to be able to boot it again with another WM.
[03:59] <Enselic> Dag_: you might wanna try the development version of GIMP   the stable version is more than two years old
[03:59] <Gasten> akos: thanks!
[03:59] <jmchaffie> bulmer: Well, I setup my machine as a static address, then setup the ip range in the router... I'll check but not sure there is a specific 'static' setting for range... then I have port forwarding for MY ip.
[03:59] <leonheart> hi
[03:59] <riaal> Hi Im having a real problem, I want to share folders from different harddrives in one folder.. check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=506090
[03:59] <DBLue> I found a keyboard on google!
[04:00] <DBLue> http://news.zdnet.co.uk/software/0,1000000121,39164303,00.htm
[04:00] <DBLue> It looks cool
[04:00] <kenro_> Maybe no one uses direct connect anymore?
[04:00] <Enselic> When I run    sudo lshw | grep -i cd    I get no interesting hits, and my CD doesn't work in Ubuntu Gutsy I can boot from it however, so it is not a hardware problem, and it even worked earlier today! How should I proceed to get my cd working again?
[04:00] <Enselic> cd reader*
[04:00] <Dag_> Enselic: how do i get it?
[04:01] <bulmer> jmchaffie, yeah check those..and i have not used the port forwarding on those kind of routers, i normally put my linux (as router with iptables) in the dmz
[04:01] <stefg> !gutsy | Enselic
[04:01] <ubotu> Enselic: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule - Roadmap and specifications: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy - Support in #ubuntu+1
[04:01] <pringat> I wnat to install ia32-libs ia32-libs-gtk and I do not know in which repository I can find them. any idea?
[04:01] <Enselic> stefg: I know, but this isn't Gutsy specfic :(
[04:01] <Enselic> stefg: that is, the procedure to get it working should be the same, right?
[04:02] <Enselic> Dag_: I strongly recomend you to build it from source
[04:02] <kenro_> !ubotu dc++
[04:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dc++ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:02] <Dag_> Enselic: what do you mean? i'm new you see.
[04:02] <Enselic> Dag_: I can help you build it if you have some time to spare
[04:02] <kenro_> !ubotu unstable
[04:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unstable - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:02] <Dag_> Enselic: i've got 1 hour, is that good?
[04:02] <kenro_> Bah. stupid bot.
[04:02] <Enselic> Dag_: do you have a fast system?
[04:02] <stefg> Enselic the gutsy kernel might have changed. try to boot feisty, and only come back, if its still an issue with that
[04:02] <Dag_> Enselic: very fast.
[04:02] <jmchaffie> bulmer: ok cool, thanks tons. Gives me much more to go on for now. At least I now have a new angle to go on instead of beating my head against the wall on the same stuff! :)
[04:03] <Enselic> Dag_: are you used to using the terminal?
[04:03] <Dag_> Enselic: a little
[04:03] <Enselic> Dag_: ok, let's give it a try
[04:03] <Enselic> Dag_: fire up a terminal
[04:03] <Dag_> Enselic: possible for private chat? it's hard to follow everything here so many ppl talking
[04:03] <Enselic> Dag_: sure
[04:04] <Enselic> Dag_: you need to register with nickserv though
[04:04] <sam542> how big should i make my /var in comparison to my /usr? im thinking that my /var should be 60% as big as my /usr atm
[04:04] <Kjellviz> are there any problems/risks with installing kubuntu in a tri-boot where ive already got vista and ubuntu installed ?
[04:05] <Dag_> Enselic: ill register now one moment
[04:05] <Enselic> Dag_: ok
[04:05] <sam542> kjellviz there is if you resize your nfts partition
[04:05] <effraie> o/
[04:05] <Kjellviz> sam542: meaning it can render the remaining data on the ntfs part corrupt ?
[04:05] <effraie> does somebody knows a tool to adjust monitor's RGB ?
[04:06] <BadRobot> Hi there .I've installed the Ubuntu Feisty. It hangs after the message "Loading boot/initrd.....". It looks like its about to load a new screen, but the screen stays black and it just hangs there.The laptop is an ASUS A6000KM.So,could anyone give some help?
[04:06] <royel> Kjellviz: as long as you have an idea of what your doing it will be fine, if your asking this question though, I gotta suspect you may not be quite the pro.
[04:06] <kenro_> Anyone know the appropriate #irc for direct connect?
[04:06] <kenro_> grrrrrrr
[04:06] <sam542> Kjellviz yes but the risk is lower if you have a fully defragmented nfts partition
[04:06] <kenro_> Anyone know the appropriate #irc for direct connect?
[04:06] <Kjellviz> sam542: ok
[04:07] <Kjellviz> royel: im a windows tech, but a newcomer to linux
[04:07] <stefg> sam542: look at it in absolute terms. /usr will never be bigger than approx. 3-4 GB, there's simply not more stuff in ubuntu (not talking of  /usr/src). your /var space depends on what you're going to do withe the box (mysql databases? )
[04:07] <royel> Kjellviz: just be sure not to use any existing partitions then, I have several distros scattered across a few different drives myself
[04:08] <Kjellviz> royel: ive only got 1 drive though, its a laptop
[04:08] <royel> Kjellviz: well, is there free space available already?
[04:08] <Kjellviz> royel: tons
[04:08] <royel> Kjellviz: why install kubuntu?
[04:08] <Kjellviz> royel: hehe
[04:08] <kenro_> Anyone here use DirectConnect?
[04:08] <zepolen> royel: why not
[04:08] <royel> Kjellviz: you can add kde to your existing ubuntu
[04:09] <Kjellviz> royel: i like KDE gui, but i had kubuntu installed before i installed ubuntu, and i could not get wine etc working as in ubuntu
[04:09] <zepolen> ubuntus support for multiple managers is terrible
[04:09] <Enselic> Dag_: you register by      /msg NickServ REGISTER  <password>
[04:09] <Kjellviz> royel: so id want a fully working os (like my ubuntu is now), and a option to boot kubuntu when i feel like tinkering and making it work ><
[04:09] <nkbreau> is there a way to quickly map a drive between two ubuntu laptops to transfer some files on the same network,. kind of like a shared folder in windows ? whats the quickest/easiest way ?
[04:09] <Dag_> Enselic: one moment
[04:09] <zepolen> nkbreau: ftp :/
[04:10] <royel> Kjellviz: I see, you should be able to do: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[04:10] <bluefox83> Kjellviz, sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[04:10] <zepolen> Kjellviz: dont do that
[04:10] <nkbreau> so i have to setup an ftp server zepolen ?
[04:10] <Kjellviz> i did that on my desktop a while back
[04:10] <zepolen> it will fuck up your install
[04:10] <Kjellviz> royel: it messed up my install
[04:10] <Johnson> argh, this nick is taken blabla
[04:10] <Kjellviz> xactly
[04:10] <Kjellviz> ><
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Kjellviz: DO what royal says, I do it here.. I can select wm at the login
[04:10] <zepolen> yes nk
[04:10] <zepolen> Kjellviz: DONT
[04:11] <JohnsonsWhatever> Enselic: it's been done.
[04:11] <JohnsonsWhatever> Enselic: what now? :)
[04:11] <nkbreau> I'm guessing thats something i'll have to install ?
[04:11] <Kjellviz> Jack_Sparrow: ive tried it and it messed up
[04:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Kjellviz: How is it messed up
[04:11] <zepolen> ubuntu's manager meta package are shit
[04:11] <Kjellviz> Jack_Sparrow: not at all anymore since i reinstalled ;)
[04:11] <sunken> Hi, I would like to virtualize three windows 2003 servers (configured and having applications that req. windows 2003) on a ubuntu server host. How do I do it?
[04:11] <zepolen> all sorts of problems
[04:11] <Enselic> JohnsonsWhatever: are you Don_?
