[11:33] <gopodge> Lartza_: What about Firefox Throttle for Windows? http://www.uselessapplications.com/en/Application/FirefoxThrottle.aspx
[11:33] <Lartza_> thx ill try

[11:36] <rares_ubuntu> simplexio, here is my line from the grub menu: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-server root=UUID=9462e189-8ec0-4e53-b635-591954650b36 nmi_watchdog=0 ro quiet splash acpi=off
[11:36] <rares_ubuntu> but still the same problem
[11:36] <rares_ubuntu> i have to hard reboot the laptop
[11:37] <simplexio> rares_ubuntu: remove acpi=off when you test nmi_watchdog
[11:37] <gopodge> Ximal: Don't know.. is Windows safe? :)
[11:37] <LimCore> trickle is not so good :/
[11:37] <VanXo> ackervoice.co.uk
[11:37] <LimCore> I hoped trickle would create a virtual eth card etc
[11:37] <rares_ubuntu> ok, i'll do that
[11:38] <gopodge> LimCore: Sounds like it intercepts all of the socket connections.. certainly one way of doing it..
[11:39] <LimCore> gopodge: only for one application, and doesn't always work - see BUG section of man
[11:40] <typhoon07> hi I am trying to install real player,  i have a .bin file and am unsure how to install it can anyone help
[11:40] <mavi-> run it =)
[11:40] <mavi-> its a executable
[11:41] <mavi-> but why would you ever want real player?
[11:41] <gopodge> LimCore: Good point. Something to consider.
[11:41] <typhoon07> apparently i need it to listen to bbc radio online
[11:41] <SleepingSloth> mavi - .rams?
[11:42] <mavi-> arent there better players for that?
[11:43] <SleepingSloth> avi - its a bbc requirement
[11:43] <SleepingSloth> *mavi
[11:44] <typhoon07> yeah i dont think you can use any other player for BBC stuff
[11:45] <MagnumRapper> if your using real player how do you connect to their network?
[11:47] <tomasko> hi, could someone help me get this usb mass storage device to work? http://pastebin.com/d67cdc69d -> lshw paste of relevant usb bus and device
[11:47] <tomasko> thanks
[11:48] <tomasko> my other usb devices work. this is an emperex 4G USB stick that i plugged in
[11:48] <tomasko> admittedly the other devices (all of which are plugged in to another USB-<number>) work off of that side
[11:49] <tomasko> i'll go mouseless for a bit (usb mouse) and try the usb device there before i ask for some help again
[11:49] <pawan> dreamscene in ubuntu
[11:50] <Surkow> hello peeps
[11:51] <lyric> svn_load_dirs.pl is gone since my last ubuntu update.
[11:52] <lyric> Is it no longer supported?
[11:52] <pawan> dreamscene in ubuntu
[11:53] <linduxed> ive got a mp3 that amarok wont play, is there a package for either recording output-sound or for fixing/converting mp3s to mp3s?
[11:53] <tomasko> linduxed: try dumping raw audio via mplayer -dumpaudio and then lame to encode to mp3
[11:53] <tomasko> btw, my usb device issue is temporarily 'fixed' thanks to sacrificing my mouse
[11:53] <Voltxion> hello, I was wondering how is the AMD64 version of ubuntu for basic web surfing and learning how to use ubuntu/linux in general? does flash9 work in firefox?
[11:54] <tomasko> apparently the stupid device doesn't work well in usb 2.0 hubs
[11:54] <linduxed> tomasko: ok and how do you lame encode
[11:54] <tomasko> linduxed: lame something.wav something.wav.mp3
[11:54] <kalatian> Voltxion: everything works fine, except for some proprietary stuff (namely, java and flash, but flash works now :)
[11:54] <kalatian> although maybe not "well"
[11:54] <tomasko> linduxed: besides that (for anything fancy), rtfm
[11:55] <tomasko> kalatian: Java is GPL'd now?
[11:55] <Voltxion> kalatian: Ahh, thank you
[11:55] <tomasko> though, agreed, flash sucks on amd64
[11:55] <achilles616> is there a way to install the ubuntu theme into say a different linux distro?
[11:55] <inversekinetix> ere4si: thanks for replying earlier, I have managed to get access to my data
[11:55] <tomasko> achilles616: you can use sabayon and then steal the compressed archive it creates and uncompress it on your target system
[11:56] <ere4si> inversekinetix, how did you do it pls - may help others :)
[11:56] <tomasko> i know it sounds complicated, but sabayon runs a mini-gnome for you, so what you see _is_ what you get :)
[11:56] <Ximal> inversekinetix : backup your data on flash ... disc of some kind... be it bluray or dvd r ... and another hd for firm backing up of your data..
[11:56] <tomasko> i forgot the specifics of where the archive is kept, i want to say it's in /tmp or /var/tmp
[11:56] <Ximal> else be it lose like that again..
[11:56] <kalatian> tomasko: if it isn't, 64bit hasn't gotten any applet love from it yet
[11:57] <inversekinetix> i dont know ere4si, i reset bios, fixed MBR, FIXED boot, and now it shows in ubuntu, windows is still borked though
[11:57] <kalatian> Voltxion: tomasko: but you can use icedtea to get most things working
[11:57] <kalatian> java wise, anyway
[11:57] <kalatian> other then that, there is no reason not to use 64bit
[11:57] <ere4si> inversekinetix, I'm happy your halfway there then :)
[11:58] <inversekinetix> Ximal  I have everything backed up, but 6TB of DVDs is a nightmare
[11:58] <Ximal> true that inverse ...
[11:58] <Miiiiles> Hi, i'm in trouble
[11:58] <inversekinetix> ere4si: 1 other question, my windows partition stopped showing up in ubuntu a long time ago, any idea how i can get it to show to save some important data
[11:58] <Ximal> I'm actually working on getting a couple terbs hd's to use ...
[11:58] <LoLLo> how can i put a music backgroung for an AVI video ? ? ?
[11:58] <Miiiiles> My Ext3 external HD reckognize every directory as if it was just a few bytes file
[11:59] <achilles616> tomasko.... i was hoping for something easy!
[11:59] <LoLLo> how can i put a music background* for an AVI video ? ? ?
[11:59] <Ximal> I am going to make a file server for my house .... mainly to backup the useless data I have..
[11:59] <Miiiiles> How can I fix this?
[11:59] <Ximal> mount it miles.
[11:59] <ere4si> inversekinetix, open the file /etc/fstab and see if it shows in there for a start
[11:59] <LoLLo> how can i put a music background* for an AVI video ? ? ?
[11:59] <lyric> Is svn_load_dirs.pl no longer supported?
[12:00] <inversekinetix> ere4si: how do i do that?
[12:00] <Miiiiles> Ximal, it IS mounted
[12:00] <bullgard4> Is 'Festival' the major Ubuntu text to speech program, or is there another one?
[12:00] <tomasko> achilles616: well that's the way i remember doing it because i needed a unified look for 30+ computers
[12:00] <simplexio> LoLLo: http://linux.about.com/od/ubuntu_doc/a/ubudg34t5.htm
[12:00] <achilles616> do you have the files tomasko?
[12:01] <linduxed> tomasko: wasnt needed, i noticed mplayer refused even touching the file....because it didnt have the suffix ".mp3"
[12:01] <inversekinetix> got it ere4si
[12:01] <rares_ubuntu> simplexio, :( still not working
[12:01] <ere4si> inversekinetix, the file browser - or places comp - select the etc folder then scroll down to the text files and look for fstab
[12:01] <ere4si> k
[12:01] <Ximal> ok
[12:01] <rares_ubuntu> i wonder why it's working without the external monitor
[12:01] <tomasko> kalatian: there are plenty of reasons not to use 64 bit on a modern desktop, and there are a few advantages (in fact, only one _good_ one i can think of for some people otherwise)
[12:01] <inversekinetix> ere4si:  in the file browser it shows one partition of the windows HD but not the one with the file system
[12:02] <inversekinetix> can i pastebin it to you?>
[12:02] <simplexio> rares_ubuntu: what driver you use in X
[12:02] <rares_ubuntu> nvidia 169
[12:02] <ere4si> inversekinetix,  paste away
[12:02] <ere4si> !paste
[12:02] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post multiple-lines texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)

[12:05] <akoe_ceweq> ao
[12:05] <ere4si> inversekinetix, it shows four ntfs partitions - browse to the /media directory and see if they are there
[12:05] <simplexio> rares_ubuntu: you could check is there option in powersave that i wont close that screen at all. or try upgrade kernel, problems probably is somehow conencted to apic stuff
[12:06] <simplexio> rares_ubuntu: i dont have any problems with that driver on dualscreen desktop
[12:06] <bella> everything works fine except the dial up through my external modem it is recognized and dials but doesn't connect
[12:06] <bella> (11:56:21) bella: same modem connects straight away under puppy linux  can anybody help
[12:06] <bella> please?
[12:06] <Voltxion> Ok, I have another question, How should I go about installing ubuntu on a drive that already has windows XP installed on it, I have resized teh partitions so I have 150gb of free space.
[12:06] <inversekinetix> there are 4 partitions
[12:06] <inversekinetix> there should be 5
[12:07] <simplexio> rares_ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-305435.html
[12:07] <simplexio> rares_ubuntu: that could also help, no idea what it does thight
[12:07] <inversekinetix> shows it as empty ere4si

[12:09] <ere4si> inversekinetix,  wait
[12:09] <kalatian> tomasko: what other disadvantages are there?
[12:09] <ere4si> inversekinetix, have you rebooted recently?
[12:09] <inversekinetix> i did grub, but i use wingrub and a modified boot.ini
[12:09] <inversekinetix> i had to reboot because everything borked
[12:10] <ere4si> inversekinetix, know nothing about that - sorry
[12:10] <ere4si> !grub | inversekinetix
[12:10] <ubotu> inversekinetix: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[12:11] <inversekinetix> theres no problem with grub
[12:12] <ere4si> inversekinetix, closest I can do for helping you with obscure boot params like that...
[12:13] <hischild> inversekinetix, you lost your boot.ini or what?
[12:14] <inversekinetix> no hischild nothing like that
[12:15] <inversekinetix> i got a BSOD from nowhere and need to retrieve a few files from the C partition before i reinstall
[12:15] <hischild> inversekinetix, aaah ... i see
[12:15] <hischild> inversekinetix, i was trying to see if i could figure it out somewhere above but that didn't make much sense ... but you can't see your windows drive?
[12:16] <bella> need help setting up external modem
[12:16] <inversekinetix> hischild: no i cant see the windows partition, i can see the other partition
[12:16] <Voltxion> If I just resized a partition on my windows HD and I install ubuntu on the free space thats left over will grub boot correctly?
[12:16] <Voltxion> after teh installation
[12:17] <hischild> inversekinetix, how many partitions do you see total? i see 6 in your fstab (including swap and root both as 1)
[12:17] <DSLNitroray> hischild: How can i run something like sampsvr022, but not on the background ?
[12:17] <hischild> idk?
[12:18] <sausage_> make modules -C /lib/modules/2.6.15-27-desktop/build SUBDIRS=/home/sausage/xpad360/xpad360

[12:18] <bella> please!!!!!
[12:18] <gorski> how to enable this command at boot up?: sudo mount -o bind /media/hda5 /var/ftp/hda5
[12:18] <DSLNitroray> !repeat ? BElla
[12:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repeat ? bella - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:18] <DSLNitroray> !repeat | Bella
[12:18] <ubotu> Bella: 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
[12:18] <J-_> !pppoe > bella
[12:19] <hischild> inversekinetix, alright ... all 4 show in  your fstab so you should be able to see them. However i have a feeling there is another partition out there that your windows is on ...c orrect?
[12:19] <inversekinetix> hischild: 4 drives  1= 100gb windows(cant see)/400gb data   1=500gb data  1 = 500gb data   1=80 linux root/swap
[12:19] <hischild> inversekinetix, aah i c ... and in nautilus it doesn't show either? (they sometimes show there without reason ... )
[12:20] <bella> thanks ubotu
[12:21] <inversekinetix> it shows the partion as sda1  59.6GB no files
[12:21] <inversekinetix> brb, gonna try something
[12:21] <jovitosg> hey people. do you know a good website to catch icons for the softwares of ubuntu?
[12:21] <hischild> inversekinetix, if it doesn't show as having files there are 2 possibilities ... one is that it screwed over, second is that you have to mount it ... second is much more likely :-)
[12:22] <bella> question : my modem Eternal sitecom dials but doesn't connect can somebody help me correct configuration the same model works straight away under puppy linux
[12:23] <J-_> bella: Dialup?
[12:23] <gorski> how to enable this command at boot up?: sudo mount -o bind /media/hda5 /var/ftp/hda5
[12:23] <jrib> gorski: use /etc/fstab
[12:24] <jrib> !fstab > gorski (read the private message from ubotu)
[12:25] <gorski> jrib, ok but how do i write options -o bind?
[12:25] <jrib> gorski: at least take a look at the link ubotu sent you.  If you are still not sure, then ask again
[12:25] <jovitosg> good morning. hey people do you know a good website to catch icons for the softwares of my ubuntu?
[12:28] <bella> yes J dial up
[12:28] <LoLLo> how can we define compiz-fusion ? an application ?
[12:28] <bella> J-_:  yes dial up
[12:29] <jrib> LoLLo: what do you mean?
[12:29] <Slart> jovitosg: there's gnome-look and it's friends.. I think there are icons there
[12:29] <jrib> !compiz-fusion | LoLLo

[12:29] <duckly> i want to install widows on a partition. but i have linux already installed and i dont want to mess up grubb... suggestions?
[12:29] <hischild> LoLLo, repeating doesn't make it clearer what you mean
[12:29] <jrib> duckly: install windows and then restore grub
[12:29] <jrib> !grub > duckly (read the private message from ubotu)
[12:30] <duckly> jrib: how do i restore grubb?
[12:30] <LoLLo> jrib uhm ... compiz-fusion can be called " a program " or " an application " ?
[12:30] <hischild> duckly, read the pm from ubotu
[12:30] <Pici> LoLLo: Whats the difference?
[12:30] <Slart> LoLLo: it is definately an application/program/piece of software
[12:30] <jovitosg> slart. can you talk more details about this this friends?
[12:30] <LoLLo> ok thankssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

[12:35] <Squawk> duckly, easiest way is probably to get an ubuntu livecd and just re-install grub to the mbr after installing winblows
[12:35] <hischild> Squawk, be nice ... winbugs :-)
[12:35] <LoLLo> only ubuntu can support compiz-fusion
[12:35] <bella> I need help with dial up ......question : my modem Eternal sitecom dials but doesn't connect can somebody help me correct configuration the same model works straight away under puppy linux
[12:36] <bella> please I need help with dial up ......question : my modem Eternal sitecom dials but doesn't connect can somebody help me correct configuration the same model works straight away under puppy linux
[12:36] <Slart> bella: try waiting at least 5 minutes before repeating your question.. probably noone knows the answer to your question.. or they would have answered by now.. try getting some more info.. error messages.. look in your system logs.. google for "+ubuntu +"eternal sitecom"".. tell us what you've found out so far
[12:36] <Squawk> bella, repeating your question is morelikely to stop people answer/anger them
[12:36] <Squawk> if someone knows they will answer, if they dont, they stay quiet
[12:37] <lakeoftea> this is a totally random question : but why to trace routes sometimes can't return some of the hops near the end of the trace route, like when it's getting closer  to the address your tracerouting ???
[12:37] <lakeoftea> i know you smart linux ppl can answer that one
[12:37] <Squawk> lakeoftea, it depends on a number of factors
[12:37] <lakeoftea> *how come . . .
[12:37] <duckly> Squawk: ok. well i will not run ubuntu. but gentoo. but i will do it from a ubuntu cd :) thanks for the help :)
[12:37] <lakeoftea> squawk : shoot
[12:37] <hischild> lakeoftea, that's easy. The further a packet goes, the harder it becomes to get back. So then it might get lost. (in a nutshell ... it's rather complicated to explain it all)
[12:37] <Squawk> lakeoftea, some routers/servers on the router will be actively setup to block pings. Others run operating systems that send the ping back but with a ttl of 1, which means it never reaches you. In both cases, you get no response
[12:38] <LoLLo> only ubuntu can support compiz-fusion ? ? ?
[12:38] <Squawk> duckly, gentoo is the same
[12:38] <Slart> "it might get lost" ? that must be the worst explanation yet ;)
[12:38] <lakeoftea> ahhhhhhhhhhh
[12:38] <jrib> LoLLo: no
[12:38] <Squawk> duckly, I run gentoo also (why are you asking this in #ubuntu), and I know the gentoo livecd is perfectly capable of a grub re-install
[12:38] <hischild> Slart, yeah ... it's far from perfect ... but i couldn't think of a better one :p besides, it's not certain it'll get lost :-)
[12:38] <lakeoftea> so people deliberately set their servers up so they won't return pings
[12:38] <hischild> Squawk, you know supergrub can do that as well?
[12:39] <Squawk> never heard of supergrub
[12:39] <lakeoftea> so that's probably why my traceroute to some asian sountry got shot down early, b.c. of that damn firewall of china ???
[12:39] <lakeoftea> they censored my ass ??
[12:39] <Squawk> lakeoftea, can be many reasons
[12:39] <Squawk> lakeoftea, of traceroute bbc.co.uk, you will not get a complete result
[12:39] <lakeoftea> do they do that to protect themselves maybe?
[12:39] <hischild> Squawk, it's a 3 meg cd image that can you boot of ... can restore windows mbr, linux mbr, combinations ... basically every possibility for grub is in there ... and it even contains screen to screen help texts
[12:40] <hischild> newbie can do it :-)
[12:40] <duckly> Squawk: gentoo livecd crashes on my hardware, but ubuntu works :)
[12:40] <Squawk> lakeoftea, put my name in posts if you want me to see it, so my nick gets highlighted. And not protection, just the way some routers work
[12:40] <humbolto> does my launchpad account not work for ubuntu brainstrorm?
[12:40] <Squawk> duckly, lol. Fair enough, install of gentoo must have been fun. its not exactly a cakewalk with the cd
[12:40] <Squawk> hischild, nice, i will put that on my reading list
[12:40] <lakeoftea> squak
[12:41] <lakeoftea> er squak | thanks for the explaination
[12:41] <hischild> !tab > lakeoftea  (read the pm)
[12:41] <Slart> humbolto: have you tried?
[12:41] <Squawk> Ok, to all in channel, why does everyone call me Squak. Why does nobody, and I mean nobody, see the w?
[12:41] <hischild> Squawk, i do call you Squawk , even with a capital!
[12:41] <Slart> Squawk: they call me start.. you just have to live with it =)
[12:41] <Squawk> hischild, yeah but I bet you use tab complete
[12:42] <hischild> Squawk, good point ... it saves so much typing
[12:42] <Slart> things would be easier if it wasn't for that squarebracket guy.. =)
[12:42] <tjacobs> quit
[12:42] <Squawk> try /quit tjacobs
[12:42] <bella> find nothing Squawk
[12:42] <duckly> Squawk: hehe a week has gone... and still no netwerk and the kernel refuses to load any modules. but i can boot..hehe
[12:43] <hischild> ooh this is great ... windows crashes in virtualbox but ubuntu keeps running ... <3
[12:43] <Squawk> bella, does your modem require firmware taht you havent got in ubuntu?
[12:43] <Squawk> duckly, a week? if I was helping you a week ago I dont remember...
[12:43] <lakeoftea> hischild | good tip !!!
[12:44] <bella> it work instantly in puppy linux Squawk
[12:44] <duckly> Squawk: i mean i started installing last saturday. SNd
[12:44] <lakeoftea> i'm running IRC on a p3 500 mhz through pcanywhere using emule as irc client : not recommended
[12:44] <hischild> lakeoftea, i only type lak and then hit tab to type your name :-)
[12:44] <Squawk> bella, great, but this isnt puppy linux. Hence, find outwhats missing (firmware was my first suggestion)
[12:44] <bella> and saitecom says it is fully linux compliant
[12:44] <lakeoftea> but incredibly fun for some reason
[12:44] <Squawk> duckly, are you chaning your kernel config? if so, have you actualy got module loading support compiled in?
[12:45] <bella> the modem is detected dials but connection isn't not established squawk
[12:45] <Squawk> lakeoftea, if you wanna run irc remotely, use a combination of ssh, screen and irssi
[12:45] <co_hUjaN> end
[12:45] <Squawk> bella, configuration (username password etc) correct?
[12:45] <bella> therefore no firm ware
[12:46] <duckly> Squawk: i did a module install. so i dont know what it can be.
[12:46] <bella> yes Squawk
[12:47] <hischild> Squawk,   lsmod and grep for the module?
[12:47] <Lightmans> hello, sombody here who have some experience with kernel building and amd64 arch.? iam trying to build the kernel <IP_ADDRESS> for ubuntu 7.10 and need some answers from somebody who have more know-how
[12:48] <duckly> Squawk: actuly i did a extra module install just to be on the safe side... but do i have to copy the bzimage to my /boot agai after module install?
[12:48] <duckly> again
[12:48] <hischild> Lightmans, perhaps you can be more specific as i'm sure there are those around that can help around when they know what you want
[12:49] <bella> I give up
[12:49] <Squawk> duckly, no you shouldnt have to
[12:49] <cyphase> What eventually became Compiz Fusion -> http://www.gnome.org/~seth/blog/xshots
[12:49] <Squawk> bella, what do the logs say ?
[12:49] <Lightmans> @hischild; ok i will try to make my first question: how can i identify what ubuntu arch i installed? i dont remember if i installed the i386 or the amd64 arch from ubuntu desktio
[12:49] <Squawk> hischild, grep for which modules? sorry got distracted? if his module isnt loading then lsmod wont tell you anything
[12:49] <ricardoromao> hello everybody, someone could help me, I have a instalation with ubuntu 7.10 on Asus k8u-x motherboard and when I gonna move some file from one partion to other, they freeze and blink the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock lights. Anybody knows what this means ? tks
[12:50] <Squawk> Lightmans, uname -a
[12:50] <bella> dont know I am not under ubuntu right now so....
[12:50] <Lightmans> no uname -r brings me only the actual kernel name
[12:50] <Lightmans> for ex. <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:50] <Lightmans> but not the archictcture
[12:50] <Squawk> Lightmans, make that uname -m
[12:51] <Lightmans> now i have i686
[12:51] <Lightmans> are you sure that is the cpu archticture? and ubuntu installation?
[12:51] <[blackb]> server irc.oltrelinux.com
[12:51] <juice__> moro
[12:51] <Vadi> When I go to "file:///home/vadi/" in firefox, it displays all my files.. is this a firefox thing or is something displaying all my files to the world?
[12:51] <hischild> Squawk, well considering how he asks the questions, i'm not sure wether it is loaded. And loading a module twice gives the same error as not loading it ... thus the checking for if it is actually loaded
[12:51] <bella> k bye this is not so nice
[12:52] <Squawk> hischild, fair point
[12:52] <_YbbIua> :)
[12:52] <hischild> Squawk, besides it's better to be safe then sorry ;-)
[12:52] <duckly> do u know how to cach linux bootcd in ram? id doesnt support docach. workaround?
[12:52] <Squawk> hischild, live on the edge ;)
[12:52] <duckly> Squawk: do u know how to cach linux bootcd in ram? id doesnt support docach. workaround?
[12:52] <Squawk> duckly, no idea im afriad
[12:53] <duckly> Squawk: ok
[12:53] <hischild> Squawk, ofcourse, that is always great :-) i do that with my pc ... which took me literally hours to figure out and even as we speak it's not running as it should  ... but hey it does the job :P
[12:53] <Dr_willis> duckly,  you may want to claify as to what you are wanting to do exactly. Your statement is not very clear.
[12:53] <hischild> Squawk, and that's the fastest way to learn :-)
[12:54] <Squawk> hischild, fastest way to learn is to install gentoo, curse for a while, use it for a month, figure out how you should have done it differently, and then re-install.  For ubuntu, best way to learn about your system is to try to compile a custom kernel...
[12:54] <jtravnick> are there any chat programs for yahoo that suport cams?
[12:55] <hischild> Squawk, i can compile a custom kernel ... but mine does work for a change :P
[12:55] <hischild> wait
[12:55] <hischild> make that could
[12:56] <duckly> Dr_willis: i want to not whait for the livecd to spin up everytime i doo someting when im in the livecd enviroment,so i wanted to cach it to ram. i have 2GB ram ...
[12:56] <babo> is php libcurl in the repos ? I need curl for php  but i can't find it ...
[12:56] <babo> :-(
[12:56] <Squawk> jtravnick, http://ubuntu.sabza.org/2006/10/25/gyache-yahoo-webcam-on-ubuntu-linux/
[12:56] <babo> sorry found it
[12:56] <Squawk> jtravnick, I googled ubuntu yahoo webcam....
[12:57] <ere4si> what's the command to check which directories the terminal looks for programs in?
[12:57] <ere4si> pls
[12:57] <_YbbIua> Need money? Work an internet? http://bux.to/?r=lolike
[12:57] <jrib> ere4si: echo $PATH
[12:57] <Frogzoo> ere4si: echo $PATH ?
[12:57] <ere4si> thnx
[12:57] <Dr_willis> duckly,  rhew is tthe TORAM option
[12:58] <jtravnick> Squawk:  thanks coming over from fedora and was never able to use our cam on that just seamed like a pain to do
[12:58] <Squawk> jtravnick, I have no clue how easy/not it is, I just googled and that was the first link
[12:59] <jaek_eee> hmm is there a tool i can use to keep a folder up to date via ftp, kinda like rsync via ftp?
[12:59] <Squawk> ere4si, echo $PATH
[12:59] <duckly> Dr_willis: hehe its a boot option yes...hehe i was going nuts.. i just read that docach wasnt suppoted...:) thanks!
[12:59] <Squawk> ere4si, oh it got answered already...
[12:59] <juice_> where /how do i get vmware?
[12:59] <juice_> !vmware
[12:59] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[12:59] <jaek_eee> why was vmware player removed in gusty?
[13:00] <ere4si> What a great confirmation! - three replies with the same answer - I'm so confident
[13:00] <ere4si> :)
[13:00] <duckly> Dr_willis: and toram doesnt come up as an option on the livecd i think...
[13:00] <Dr_willis> duckly,   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/25496
[13:01] <Dr_willis> ive NEver heard of a docach or docache
[13:02] <nanbudh> guys how do i enable scim input method in oowriter? in gedit, leafpad etc all i have to do is right click>input method>SCIM. But what should i do in oowriter?
[13:02] <duckly> Dr_willis: a boot option in sabayone and gentoo(i think). caches the cd to ram...
[13:03] <Squawk> ere4si, can I ask what you want that for? your path is something you should not play with until you understand the consequences
[13:05] <LoLLo> http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=-Gs8sYe4uqM
[13:05] <ere4si> Squawk, on the forums a person was having probs with sudo shutdown doing nothing through ssh - wanted to suggest a couple of checks and the command slipped my mind
[13:05] <Agion> my whole system started lagging after I installed atis new driver, any tips?
[13:05] <LoLLo> i've done that videoooo !
[13:05] <ere4si> Squawk, forgot the $...
[13:06] <Agion> Any tips to stop the lagging of my system?
[13:07] <Squawk> ere4si, putting a $ infront of any set of letters means you are accessing a variable. So think of your $PATH as being a variable and you will remember. To understand, try a=1; echo "$a"
[13:07] <Squawk> Agion, you need to be much more verbose than that
[13:08] <duckly> Dr_willis: what is casper. so toram doesnt work :-\
[13:08] <ere4si> Squawk, it was a matter of lack of use and being awake for 22 hrs :)
[13:09] <eni191> hi guys. How can ik make a screenprint with key combination in stead of menu tools?
[13:09] <duckly> i want to not whait for the livecd to spin up everytime i do someting when im in the livecd enviroment,so i wanted to cach it to ram. i have 2GB ram ...
[13:09] <duckly> i want to not whait for the livecd to spin up everytime i do someting when im in the livecd enviroment,so i wanted to cach it to ram. i have 2GB ram ...is there a way?
[13:10] <Agion> Squawk, the system staretd lagging after I installed the ATI driver
[13:10] <Squawk> duckly, I think the livecd pretty much puts an optimal ammount of itself in RAM by default (I could be wrong)
[13:10] <Squawk> Agion, the system or you desktop environment?
[13:10] <danand> LoLLo - i like :)
[13:10] <Squawk> Agion, you need to define lagging more clearly
[13:10] <LoLLo> yeee thx !
[13:10] <Agion> the whole system i think
[13:11] <nanbudh> There might be a way to have a portion of the disk dedicated to livecd ? is there?
[13:11] <Squawk> Agion, run "top", and see whats using your resources
[13:11] <Agion> its y'now, like when I open a window it takes 30 secs from it to open..
[13:11] <pwuertz> yea... just install ubuntu
[13:11] <nanbudh> I think there is such a think in Knoppix
[13:11] <Agion> top at console?
[13:11] <duckly> Squawk: i think u are wrong...
[13:11] <Squawk> Agion, yeah
[13:11] <duckly> :-\
[13:11] <Squawk> duckly, very possibly, I dont know much about livecd
[13:11] <nanbudh> No no i din mean install ubuntu, just a swap space kinda thing
[13:12] <duckly> Squawk: np i just live there so i get a little bit annoyed :)
[13:12] <shaula> how can I adjust the color depth of the desktop?
[13:12] <nanbudh> another idea is to copy  livecd onto usb stick. That should be faster
[13:13] <duckly> bye bye all! have a nice day!
[13:13] <Agion> xorg takes all my resources...
[13:13] <Agion> how can I fix it?
[13:13] <Vadi> When I go to "file:///home/vadi/" in firefox, it displays all my files.. is this a firefox thing or is something displaying all my files to the world?
[13:13] <noob-400> how do i check/set the permissions of a particular group?
[13:14] <noob-400> i know how to check/set them for a user..  but not sure on a group
[13:14] <Squawk> Agion, you could try stopping it and then starting it again (reboot or else kill gdm with /etc/init.d/gdm restart)
[13:15] <noob-400> i want to set the "administrators" group to have stronger permissions than the "users" group
[13:15] <Lightmans> hi, can somebody tell me if this is amd64 oder i386 -> uname -R -> Linux debian <IP_ADDRESS> #2 SMP Fri Feb 29 11:53:32 CET 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[13:15] <Squawk> Lightmans, thats i686
[13:15] <Squawk> Lightmans, amd64 will show up as x86_64
[13:15] <bazhang> Lightmans: is that Hardy?
[13:15] <Lightmans> no its ubuntu gusty
[13:16] <Lightmans> but thats not possible ... i remeber that i installed for some month the amd64 version and not the i386 of ubuntu
[13:16] <bazhang> wrong kernel for gutsy
[13:16] <Squawk> Lightmans, uname -m will give you less output but tell you wnat you need
[13:16] <Pici> Lightmans: What version does lsb_release -a say you are using?
[13:17] <Lightmans> root@debian:/home/harald# lsb_release -a
[13:17] <Lightmans> No LSB modules are available.
[13:17] <Lightmans> Distributor ID: Ubuntu
[13:17] <Lightmans> Description:    Ubuntu 7.10
[13:17] <Lightmans> Release:        7.10
[13:17] <Lightmans> Codename:       gutsy
[13:17] <FloodBot3> Lightmans: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:17] <Gizmo431> my ubuntu will not boot it hangs at the bit where the icon turns into a circle
[13:17] <Gizmo431> can anyhelp
[13:18] <Lightmans> but why its the wrong kernel for gusty? it build it tonight and it works ... but i wannt the amd64 kernel build
[13:18] <hischild> Gizmo431,  can you be more specific? like what have you changed? have you tried to remove quiet and splash from the boot options?
[13:18] <mikedep334> hey, I had a power failure multiple times, so my root filesystem was not unmounted cleanly. How do I force a fsck?
[13:18] <bazhang> aha you built it yourself
[13:18] <Squawk> Gizmo431, your ubuntu has booted fine, what is not working is xorg/gnome. Look in xorg.log
[13:18] <alsadk> after search for channals i get channals but when i try to watch on one of them i get a message its xine error - kaffeine player (no plugin found to handle this resource (/home/alsadk/.kaxtv1.ts) whats your suggests?
[13:18] <mikedep334> on my root filesystem
[13:18] <Gizmo431> i dont know how to do that
[13:18] <Lightmans> iam not more sure what i installed ... i dont remeber if i installed the i386 version or the amd64 version
[13:18] <Gizmo431> i added a init.d script yesterday fro ossec
[13:18] <Squawk> alsadk, that means you dont have the right codec/plugin to play whatever content that is
[13:19] <Lightmans> because i can also not install the original nvidia modul for 64bit systems
[13:19] <waylandbill> Gizmo431: did you try disabling the init script?
[13:19] <Magilla> does anyone know a mailserver that can download from POP accounts and re-serve as IMAP?
[13:19] <noob-400> Hi all,  how do i check/set the permissions of a particular group?
[13:19] <Lightmans> i got the error msg that i dont usw the 64bit arch...
[13:19] <alsadk> how can i know the required codec>?
[13:19] <Squawk> Gizmo431, have a look at /var/log/xorg.log (might be spelled slightly different. Lookinga thte last few lines
[13:19] <noob-400> i know how to check/set them for a user..  but not sure on a group
[13:19] <mikedep334> anyone, how to fsck my root filesystem?
[13:19] <noob-400> i want to set the "administrators" group to have stronger permissions than the "users" group
[13:19] <waylandbill> Magilla: you may want to look at the 'fetchmail' package. It might be the place to start.
[13:20] <Magilla> thanks waylandbill
[13:20] <Pici> mikedep334: sudo touch /forcefsck      then reboot.
[13:20] <mikedep334> Pici: thanks alot
[13:20] <Squawk> Magilla, a mail server doesnt download pop accounts. What you are after is 2 different bits of software
[13:20] <Magilla> Squawk: I believe Exchange SBS does it ;P
[13:20] <Squawk> Magilla, you want something like fetchmail to get mail off a pop serer, and then something like qmail or sendmail to act as another mail server
[13:21] <alsadk> squawk how can i know the required codec>?
[13:21] <Magilla> ah
[13:21] <Lightmans> pico and squawk... and idee how can this possible...?
[13:21] <Squawk> alsadk, google im afraid
[13:21] <alsadk> th x
[13:21] <bazhang> alsadk: what file format
[13:21] <Squawk> Lightmans, eitehr you recompiled a kernel and missed something in the config, or else got the wrong file when you installed
[13:21] <alsadk> for kafeine
[13:21] <alsadk> for watching tv
[13:22] <bazhang> alsadk you have the ubuntu-restricted-extras installed ?
[13:22] <alsadk> let me find out
[13:23] <stefano_> !list
[13:23] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[13:23] <Squawk> Magilla, there may well be software out there that does that function taht I am not aware of, but if there is then it is more than just a mail server. I never used exchange
[13:23] <Lightmans> as i configured the .config in activate the athlon64/opteron/k8
[13:23] <Lightmans> Opteron/Athlon64/Hammer/K8
[13:24] <Lightmans> is this not the right processior family for a AMD cpu x2 4800+ ?
[13:24] <alsadk> bazhang yes
[13:24] <Squawk> Lightmans, il check my ow, since I have an athlond x2 4400+
[13:24] <bazhang> alsadk you say watch tv--what website?
[13:24] <alsadk> ?
[13:24] <waylandbill> Magilla: squawk is right. the fetchmail is the place to start since it gets from a pop server, but you still need an imapd server. It does involve a little bit of work. If you just want to use imap instead of pop you could consider a gmail account.
[13:24] <Gizmo431> ts saying it cant open wacom
[13:25] <Anchakor> hi, is anyone here to whom I can report a problem with website?
[13:25] <alsadk> i have a skystar 2 pci
[13:25] <noob-400> Hi all,  how do i check/set the permissions of a particular group?.. i know how to check/set them for a user..  but not sure on a group..  i want to set the "administrators" group to have stronger permissions than the "users" group
[13:25] <waylandbill> Gizmo431: that's normal if you don't have a wacom device.
[13:25] <alsadk> bazhang  i have skystar2 pci
[13:25] <bazhang> alsadk this is satellite tv then?
[13:25] <alsadk> yes
[13:25] <Gizmo431> hmm. im a bit stuck really
[13:25] <Magilla> waylandbill: I'm setting up a home router box for the family connection
[13:25] <alsadk> bazhang yes
[13:25] <noob-400> is this even possible??
[13:26] <Magilla> I want to aggregate the x email accounts each person owns into a single box for them
[13:26] <bazhang> Anchakor: what website and what does this have to do with ubuntu?
[13:26] <Anchakor> bazhang: ubuntu.com
[13:26] <alsadk> bazhang it was ok before reinstalling ubuntu
[13:26] <Lightmans> or is it this? for amd64 cpu 4800+ x2? -> 586/K5/5x86/6x86/6x86MX
[13:26] <waylandbill> Magilla: gotcha.
[13:27] <Squawk> Lightmans, I have generic x86_64 as my processor type
[13:27] <Gizmo431> arrrrrrrrgh
[13:27] <Lightmans> i dont have this in my menuconfig
[13:27] <bazhang> Anchakor: what is the problem exactly?
[13:27] <Anchakor> bazhang: I use theme with inverted colours (back bg, white text) and the website displays wrongly
[13:27] <Squawk> Lightmans, I know you need to set the right profile in gentoo, so probably also in ubuntu, but I have only been using ubuntu a week, still learnign where it keeps stuff
[13:27] <Anchakor> bazhang: http://img205.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ubuntuhomepageubunturu5.png
[13:27] <bazhang> alsadk I have no idea about satellite tv sorry
[13:28] <alsadk> thx
[13:28] <Lightmans> strange
[13:28] <alsadk> bazhang thx
[13:28] <rvgate> what is the package called that enabled me to configure compiz with a gui at the System -> Preferences -> Appearance in the Visual effects tab?
[13:29] <waylandbill> noob-400: You might want to learn more about permissions. linuxbasics.org has an excellent tutorial on permissions in a linux system.
[13:29] <noob-400> thanks waylandbill
[13:29] <Squawk> Lightmans, i would need to reboot to my original ubuntu install to check what profile I had when I first installed, as I said im using a custom kernel. I have no clue where the architecture is set in ubuntu (trying to figure it out now)
[13:30] <alsadk> what i must install to compile progs from the source ?
[13:30] <idyllic> rvgate: compizconfig-settings-manager
[13:31] <rvgate> idyllic, thx !
[13:32] <idyllic> rvgate: after install, you will see it under System -> Preference -> Advance Desktop Effect Setting
[13:32] <Tu13es> does ubuntu have a build in grub manager?
[13:32] <PriceChild> Tu13es, yes, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:32] <Tu13es> :P
[13:33] <hischild> Tu13es, not as far as i know, but you can use the command line *points at PriceChild*  or get one via synaptic
[13:33] <Tu13es> I installed another distro and am trying to figure out the easiest way to add that distro to my grub conf
[13:33] <Squawk> !ubotu | Squawk
[13:33] <PriceChild> Tu13es, copy the entries from that distro's grub configuration file into ubutnu's
[13:34] <Sinnerman> PriceChild doesn't grub have option for autodetection of those?
[13:34] <PriceChild> Sinnerman, i guess
[13:35] <Gizmo431> waylandbill:you have any other ideas
[13:35] <Sinnerman> PriceChild at least, i seem to remember, at install time it did the looking itself, and correctly identified all my OS including windows xp.
[13:36] <waylandbill> Gizmo431: do you get to the welcome screen at least?
[13:36] <Gizmo431> to type in my username
[13:36] <Gizmo431> no
[13:37] <Gizmo431> ???
[13:37] <Tu13es> PriceChild: I can't get into the other distro because it goes right to ubuntu's grub :P
[13:37] <waylandbill> Sinnerman: the program that does that is 'update-grub'
[13:38] <Sinnerman> waylandbill thanks. Tu13es you might find that useful.
[13:38] <Squawk> Tu13esm, mount the partioin on which your old grub resides, and copy the info?
[13:38] <PriceChild> Tu13es, man mount
[13:38] <Tu13es> PriceChild: gotcha.
[13:38] <Tu13es> yep
[13:39] <waylandbill> Gizmo431: you could try stopping gdm and starting X manually from a virtual terminal.
[13:39] <test3r> hey i got Ubuntu 7.10 up and going on a COmpaq DeskPro 733Mhrz Intel810 chipset. using built-in video. My question is- after install- I had to knock the Screen Res back down to 1024x768. However the login screen's res is STILL too high. Is there a way I can set the res of that login screen?
[13:40] <test3r> short of installing the tool one would use to "skin" GNOME?
[13:40] <Squawk> test3r, you can set resolution in xorg.conf, which should sort it
[13:41] <waylandbill> test3r: you could remove modes you don't want from the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
[13:41] <idyllic> test3r: edit /etc/usplash.conf
[13:41] <test3r> OK so just take out that nasty mode that doesnt work? OKI'll give that a shot and come bak tell u if it werkz. ill make bakup of CONF first too OOOOOOOOOOOOO  now SEE thats the one i think i need
[13:41] <idyllic> test3r: xres=1024 yres=768

[13:43] <kah0s> bazhang:  mhh ccsm what is that ?
[13:43] <idyllic> kah0s: compizconfig-settings-manager packer
[13:43] <idyllic> *package
[13:43] <bazhang> compizconfig-settings-manager kah0s
[13:44] <kah0s> bazhang: yes i do have ccsm installed
[13:44] <Tu13es> hmm
[13:44] <bazhang> kah0s: and you have the proper drivers for your intel card installed?
[13:44] <Tu13es> how should I reorder grub listings?
[13:45] <Tu13es> it says "blah blah don't touch these"
[13:45] <Squawk> Tu13es, to suit yourself, it makes sod all difference
[13:45] <JorgenVonPilot> Hey all, have a question about installation, couldn't find anything online. I'm on a laptop that the CD-ROM has died on, it has no floppy drive. Does Ubuntu offer any installation solutions?
[13:45] <Pici> !install | JorgenVonPilot
[13:45] <ubotu> JorgenVonPilot: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[13:45] <Tu13es> Squawk: gotcha, I wasn't sure if it'd fubar something
[13:45] <Squawk> Tu13es, backup the original unless you are 100% certain of what you are doing
[13:45] <bazhang> JorgenVonPilot: you can try to use a usb stick though you have to format and set it up yourself
[13:45] <kah0s> bazhang: well i have all xorg intel stuff
[13:46] <bazhang> kah0s: then alt f2 compiz --replace
[13:46] <alsadk> what i must install to compile progs from the source ?
[13:46] <Tu13es> how do I make an entry the default one?
[13:46] <hischild> alsadk, build-essential and any other things you might need
[13:46] <bazhang> alsadk build-essential
[13:47] <alsadk> hischild whats the other things ?
[13:47] <Sinnerman> at the moment i've got my kernel booting in verbose mode, but it only allows 80 columns of text and messages appear skewed. is there a way to either widen the console or have it boot in framebuffer mode or something, as i've noticed the livecd boot up, and its messages are crisp and well-placed?
[13:47] <Mythor> After a update of Hardy, ubuntu no longer loads kernel drivers by its self, they are there, and manual loading does work, how can i fix this?
[13:47] <idyllic> Tu13es: u see "default 0" ? substitute it with the entry u want to make default
[13:48] <kah0s> bazhang: it tells me that no xgl is presetn
[13:48] <bazhang> Mythor: head to #ubuntu+1
[13:48] <Mythor> bazhang: will do
[13:48] <hischild> alsadk, if you try to compile it and it says it is missing a package, then you know you need that one as well. Usually if you run configure it will tell you which packages it needs
[13:48] <Capa> hola
[13:48] <__mikem> I have successfully dual booted my HP Pavilion. :)
[13:48] <idyllic> Tu13es: change the number 0 only.. to like 1 for 2nd entry, 2 for 3rd entry so on
[13:48] <Blice> Does anyone here have experience joining a windows domain?
[13:49] <bazhang> kah0s: then install xserver-xgl
[13:50] <bazhang> !yay | __mikem
[13:50] <ubotu> __mikem: Glad you made it! :-)
[13:50] <bazhang> Blice: using samba?
[13:50] <Blice> Because I've been trying to join this windows domain for the past couple of days, and to make matters worse, I can't use my root password anymore...
[13:50] <Blice> Yeah, bazhang.
[13:51] <cover> ,l
[13:51] <cover> nk,
[13:51] <bazhang> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently Blice have you seen this?
[13:51] <Tu13es> PriceChild: I copied the line from my other distro's menu.lst, but when I boot to it I get disk not found, hrm
[13:52] <bazhang> cover you have a support question?
[13:52] <Blice> Meh, I don't need the shared folders. I just need to be a part of the local domain here.
[13:52] <mb_> !flash > mohbana
[13:52] <mb_> poo
[13:52] <Blice> And I don't know how I messed up my root password with this
[13:52] <kah0s> bazhang: will do that now thx
[13:52] <hischild> Blice, can't use root password?
[13:52] <Blice> Yeah
[13:52] <hischild> Blice, use sudo?
[13:52] <Blice> Nope.
[13:52] <Blice> Won't work.
[13:52] <bazhang> should be sudo
[13:53] <Blice> The password is wrong for some reason
[13:53] <mb_> ~flash
[13:53] <mb_> how do i install flash
[13:53] <bazhang> for firefox mb_?
[13:53] <hischild> Blice, you do log in as your user with a password ... and when you type sudo ls it just ... tells you it's wrong? you do know you have to type your password right?
[13:53] <hischild> !flash
[13:53] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[13:53] <Blice> If you'd like to see my conf files, they're here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4425407#post4425407
[13:53] <mb_> bazhang, yes
[13:54] <waylandbill> Blice: sudo password should be your password.
[13:54] <Blice> I know, hischild. I can't use synaptic, I can't use root terminal, I can't user sudo;
[13:54] <bazhang> mb_: install the flash plugin nonfree
[13:54] <hischild> Blice, well first things first : your password :p
[13:54] <Blice> When it asks me for my password, it says it's wrong.
[13:54] <esox>  Hi, Iève this problem : when I open synaptic it asks to run dpkg --configure -a , I I do this (with sudo) I get an error
[13:54] <jrib> esox: you need to pastebin the error you receive
[13:54] <bazhang> esox what error
[13:54] <hischild> Blice, alright ...
[13:55] <Blice> :(
[13:55] <Blice> "Sorry, try again"
[13:55] <Blice> >:(
[13:55] <hischild> Blice, you can use sudo without password ... after you edit the file that handles permissions ...
[13:55] <Blice> Sigh. But can I edit that file without root access?
[13:56] <hischild> Blice, please tell  me you didn't disable recovery mode?
[13:56] <Blice> I should still have recovery mode.
[13:56] <esox> jrib: bazhang : http://pastebin.com/m79759687
[13:56] <waylandbill> Blice: single user mode or with a livecd you should be able to edit the sudoers file.
[13:57] <hischild> Blice, then boot into recovery mode, when you get your prompt type visudo ... you ahve to add a new line ... Blice NOPASSWD=NOPASSWD: NOPASSWD (mind the blanks, there's 2 total)
[13:57] <hischild> Blice, if your user is named blice ofcourse :-)
[13:57] <Blice> It is :]
[13:57] <hischild> Blice, .... woops ... forgot the brackets
[13:57] <hischild> Blice, nvm ... ti's correct ...
[13:57] <Blice> So I put....
[13:58] <rhineheart_m> what is needed by the box to send mails?
[13:58] <Blice> Blice NOPASSWD=NOPASSWD: NOPASSWD
[13:58] <Blice> ?
[13:58] <hischild> brice NOPASSWD=NOPASSWD: ALL
[13:58] <hischild> sorry .. missed that last one .. had to check it
[13:58] <waylandbill> I would think you'd put Blice ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL
[13:58] <hischild> waylandbill, yeah ... i did that of the top of my head ... and missed the last one
[13:59] <Blice> Okay, so, "blice ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL"
[13:59] <Blice> Got it.
[13:59] <hischild> Blice, correct
[13:59] <idyllic> test3r: sorry sorry
[13:59] <Blice> I'll do this in a minute, but before I do, do you have any suggestions for joining the domain?
[13:59] <Blice> Are there any errors in the conf files I pasted?
[13:59] <idyllic> test3r: i gave you a wrong instruction
[13:59] <esox> no idea ?
[13:59] <hischild> Blice, atm no ...
[13:59] <hischild> Blice, but i'll look around :-)
[13:59] <Blice> :(
[13:59] <Blice> Arg
[14:00] <Blice> So, the file I need to edit, is sudoers?
[14:00] <alsadk> hischild bazhang  tell me what is missing?
[14:00] <nico_> hi
[14:00] <mb_> last question, when i enable my ati x700 driver and try to enable desktop effects my pc freezes after a while and i can't hibernate the laptop.  please help
[14:00] <Blice> Where's that file located?
[14:00] <alsadk> hischild bazhang  tell me what is missing? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57811/
[14:00] <test3r> idyllic > s'OK I wanted that LoadBar changed too !  :D  BUT I changed XORG.CONF and the lines went away. No More Res Problem! Now I have a slick-as-greased-lard  box to use.
[14:00] <test3r> even if it doesnt have 'the cube', i can still do a lot with this. it's basically a workhorse box anyway.
[14:00] <hischild> alsadk, run ./configure, not autogen
[14:01] <alsadk> hischild bazhang  but autogen on instructions
[14:01] <idyllic> test3r: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, under Section "Screen", SubSection "Display" , set Modes "1024x768" as the first entry.. so ur login screen will use 1024x768
[14:01] <hischild> alsadk, what are you trying to compile?
[14:02] <test3r> idyllic > yes thats basically what i did. i just removed the "too large" of setting that was the first setting
[14:02] <Blice> So, how do I get into recovery mode?
[14:02] <idyllic> test3r: glad to hear, sorry for the wrong info also >.<
[14:02] <alsadk> hischild bazhang  gyachi
[14:02] <test3r> =)  *Kodak Moment*  I love u guys.  =D
[14:02] <test3r> hahahahaha I love the SCENE.
[14:03] <test3r> .mg.
[14:03] <bluewraith> While using GG, when I open a window that I usually have maximized, it will open with the right-hand part of the window about 20 pixels or so off the workspace. Anyone know why that is?
[14:03] <oldred> hello
[14:03] <test3r> bluewraith > do you have compizfusion Enabled (up and going?)
[14:03] <oldred> somebody can help me ?
[14:04] <bluewraith> test3r, yes
[14:04] <hischild> alsadk, did you notice that bazhang isn't responding? you can stop adding his name.
[14:04] <test3r> bluewraith > just "pull & shake" the window down, then maximize it. and dont touch its "min,norm,max" controls at that point
[14:04] <test3r> OH
[14:04] <alsadk> hischild did u know gyachi?
[14:04] <test3r> after that then too
[14:05] <hischild> alsadk, no i'll take a look
[14:05] <test3r> goto Save Session if its an app that comes up on startup
[14:05] <alsadk> hischild  its like pidgin but for yahoo i think
[14:06] <hischild> alsadk, go to their sourceforge website and download the .deb. You can install it by double clicking it
[14:06] <bluewraith> test3r, yes, i do that... but it gets a little annoying when half the "X" button is off on the next workspace at times.
[14:06] <Agent_bob> i'd like to change this  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d59ecfe82  and i am unaware of what is causing apt to desire "bash"    i have a personal build of bash installed  and don't want it overwriten.   can anyone shed light on this for me ?
[14:07] <Mythor> where/when does ubuntu detect/load the kernel modules
[14:07] <test3r> blue > OK so it's not an app you just "leave" up, then? its not a program you leave up to come up once you log in (kinda auto- but in HERE- we can do a "manual auto")?
[14:07] <bazhang> hischild figured you had it covered ;]
[14:07] <Agent_bob> Mythor most in the initramfs.img
[14:07] <hischild> bazhang, yeah ... pointed him at their sourceforge site ... they supply .deb's for it ... why compile if you don't know how and you can get a deb
[14:07] <alsadk> hischild  look http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57813/
[14:07] <Agent_bob> Mythor but it will read /etc/modules too
[14:07] <danand> !ask | oldred
[14:07] <J_P> hi all
[14:07] <ubotu> oldred: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[14:08] <rhineheart_m> hello! what is needed by ubuntu to send mails?
[14:08] <bazhang> hischild excellent call ;]
[14:08] <bazhang> hi J_P
[14:08] <J_P> people, what package I need instal to have file /etc/hosts.deny and hosts.allow ?
[14:08] <hischild> alsadk, didn't i just point you at their sourceforge site? do you want me to give you a link as well?
[14:08] <erUSUL> rhineheart_m: a mailclient?
[14:08] <test3r> blue > if it's Not, than its the size of the window the application is making itSelf I think. you may/maynot be able to change that? I am unsure Hopefully someone is watching with a better answer
[14:08] <bazhang> !info denyhosts
[14:08] <hischild> alsadk, don't bother compiling unless you have a real reason for it. ... and they HAVE a .deb for you
[14:08] <jrib> J_P: you create them with a text editor
[14:08] <ubotu> denyhosts (source: denyhosts): an utility to help sys admins thwart ssh hackers. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.6-2.1 (gutsy), package size 61 kB, installed size 416 kB
[14:08] <bluewraith> test3r, its pretty much any app that I use maximized. When I have it max, and close it, the next time I open it it won't be max anymore (but close) and the right side will be slightly over on workspace 2
[14:09] <Agent_bob> J_P are they not there already ?
[14:09] <rhineheart_m> erUSUL: thatnks.. do you use one?
[14:09] <bazhang> denyhosts J_P
[14:09] <test3r> blue > check the CONF of the program itself - see if you can set a smaller res for the window to spawn at?
[14:09] <erUSUL> rhineheart_m: i use evolution (instaled by default) and acasionally claws mail
[14:10] <test3r> blue > OOOOhhh so Thats how it Happens? OK. I've had that happen. Best workaround I have is the annoying loop of "re-maximize" the app. sry.
[14:10] <alsadk> hischild  give me a direct link
[14:10] <Squawk> bluewraith, as a really weird suggestion, have a go at moving the application to where you want it, and then save it as a gnome session. Dunno if it will help, but certainly my terminal always appears at startup just where I put it
[14:10] <bazhang> heh
[14:10] <test3r> squak > yes thats what I said first
[14:10] <danand> J_P - you should already have those files as part of a standard installation - try ls /etc/ | grep hosts
[14:10] <oldred> I`ve installed a psyBNc on my 7.10 and at reboot it don`t start... what can I do ?
[14:10] <rhineheart_m> erUSUL: I've been trying to configure postfix but until now.. I still can't send message over the internet
[14:10] <hischild> alsadk, http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=158490
[14:10] <esox> hello, I've troubles with synaptics : http://pastebin.com/me756a83
[14:10] <test3r> squak > but then it comes up at start up every time
[14:10] <Squawk> Ok, thats it, im having squak on highlight
[14:11] <hischild> Squawk, haha you made my day <3
[14:11] <hischild> or shall i just make that squak as well :p
[14:11] <erUSUL> rhineheart_m: so you are trying to set up a mail server not just "send mail"...
[14:11] <test3r> just a TAD of traffic in the room.
[14:11] <Squawk> ...
[14:11] <Agent_bob> danand  ls /etc/host*      why two processes and a pipe ?
[14:11] <erUSUL> !postfix | rhineheart_m
[14:11] <ubotu> rhineheart_m: postfix is the default !MTA and !MDA on Ubuntu. For help, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto - See also !MailServer
[14:11] <hischild> Squawk, i'm joking :-) i'll use your full name
[14:11] <danand> J_P - my understanding is that you just add the various host/network listings to those files as required.
[14:11] <kingamok> hello, my wireless will disconnect after a couple of minutes especially if i leave my pc idle. any idea to solve my problem?
[14:11] <Blice> I'm in recovery mode right now, it seems the password for my normal account has changed too.
[14:11] <Blice> I changed visudo though, so that's fine.
[14:11] <Squawk> hischild, I know, hence the elipses
[14:11] <erUSUL> rhineheart_m: your question should be more clear
[14:11] <Blice> What file is the password for my user account kept in? :(
[14:11] <syssan> Hi! How do i get rid of the hard-drive icons on the desktop?
[14:12] <Squawk> Blice, /etc/shadow, and its encrypted
[14:12] <Blice> Gah
[14:12] <danand> Agent_bob - yeah - thats better :)
[14:12] <rhineheart_m> erUSUL: why? can I ask about postfix problems here?
[14:12] <jrib> esox: does "tickless" mean anything to you?
[14:12] <test3r> blowfish is ur friend
[14:12] <Agent_bob> Blice /etc/shadow
[14:12] <Blice> So what's the command to change my root/user password in terminal?
[14:12] <bluewraith> test3r, yeah... guess i'll just have to live with it. Its not like its a problem... just a couple extra clicks each time i open firefox or xchat
[14:12] <Squawk> Blice, su to root and run passwd, or else sudo passwd
[14:12] <esox> jrib: yes it was an old kernel I tried to compile without success
[14:12] <mad_max02> anyone here knows where I can find help with Vista installation (its not for me, I'm trying to help a friend )
[14:12] <jrib> Blice: passwd.  It is not necessary to set a root password.  Use sudo instead
[14:12] <Agent_bob> Blice you should read up on sudo if you don't know about it.  but to answer your question   sudo passwd
[14:12] <jrib> !sudo > blice (read the private message from ubotu)
[14:12] <Squawk> mad_max02, /join #windows
[14:12] <hischild> !sudo
[14:12] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[14:13] <JorgenVonPilot> has anyone compiled syslinux before with mingw? I know nothing about programming and it lost me. I tried to figure it out anyway and just got a bunch of errors and crud. Not even sure how to use MingGW, the documentation assumes you know about programming
[14:13] <kingamok> hello
[14:13] <hischild> no .. wrong one ...
[14:13] <hischild> !root | Blice
[14:13] <ubotu> Blice: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[14:13] <test3r> blue > hey i have idea i know what i did to not have it happen . Blue - just un-maximize before you close the app. then next time you bring it up, it is only the ONE click to maximize it instead of the full workaround.
[14:13] <mad_max02> Squawk, thanks dude
[14:13] <jrib> esox: that's causing the trouble, get rid of it
[14:13] <Blice> Okay, I'll use passwd.
[14:13] <kingamok> anyone can help me to solve the mentioned problem?
[14:13] <Blice> Also, you guys should get Irssi as an IRC client ;x
[14:13] <Agent_bob> anyone know about package management ?
[14:13] <esox> jrib: I thought I got rid of it
[14:13] <jrib> !anyone | Agent_bob
[14:13] <Blice> I bet you guys can't use IRC in recovery terminal like this :DDD
[14:14] <hischild> kingamok, "mentioned problem" isn't very describtive ...
[14:14] <ubotu> Agent_bob: 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?
[14:14] <hischild> !gq
[14:14] <ubotu> Are you sure your question allows us to help you? Please read http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html to understand how to ask a 'better' question.
[14:14] <oldred> anyone can help me ?
[14:14] <kingamok> hello, my wireless will disconnect after a couple of minutes especially if i leave my pc idle. any idea to solve my problem?
[14:14] <esox> jrib: what could I do ?
[14:14] <Blice> quit
[14:14] <Blice> ..
[14:14] <bluewraith> test3r, my workaround is just doubleclicking on the titlebar. no need to make the window dance
[14:14] <bazhang> Agent_bob: what is your issue?
[14:14] <test3r> rofl
[14:14] <test3r> Blice failed
[14:14] <erUSUL> rhineheart_m: yes you can; i mean « < rhineheart_m> hello! what is needed by ubuntu to send mails? » doesn't get to the point on setting up postfix. a better question would have been: «i'm configuring postfix and it doesn't send any mail »
[14:14] <Agent_bob> jrib do you know about package management ?
[14:14] <danand> !ask | oldred
[14:14] <ubotu> oldred: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[14:14] <jrib> Agent_bob: ask a specific question
[14:14] <Squawk> kingamok, when it drops, if you run ifconfig, does it still show your wireless with an ip address etc?
[14:14] <Agent_bob> jrib then ignore me.  i posted my question.
[14:15] <rhineheart_m> erUSUL: yeah.. you got what I meant..
[14:15] <Agent_bob> i'd like to change this  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d59ecfe82  and i am unaware of what is causing apt to desire "bash"    i have a personal build of bash installed  and don't want it overwriten.   can anyone shed light on this for me ?
[14:15] <andy_> Hi I'm running 7.10, is there a repo where I can get g++4.3 ? Thanks!
[14:15] <esox> jrib: I cant access synaptic and apt returns errors
[14:15] <kingamok> squawk; i havent do ifconfig yet , will do it later and come back again once it drop. ok
[14:15] <jrib> esox: get rid of the tickless kernel and then run dpkg --configure -a again
[14:15] <noelferreira> do you know how to solve the problem of ralink wireless driver (rt61)? my connection is always coming down.
[14:16] <Squawk> kingamok, if it still shows an ip address and what not then its not an ubuntu issue but rather a wireless issue (ie losing signal or something)
[14:16] <rhineheart_m> erUSUL:I've read already the basic configuration for postfix..but I guess there must be something wrong the way it has been configured
[14:16] <test3r> blue > Yeah I guess that's the price we deal with for having 'the cube' and the most efficient computer workspace known to man
[14:16] <kingamok> ok squawk tq for ur respond
[14:16] <esox> jrib: I dont have it anymore but I have some small files related to it, I just erase them "by hand" ?
[14:16] <jrib> Agent_bob: a package you have installed depends on bash
[14:17] <Agent_bob> jrib no.
[14:17] <Mythor> Agent_bob: and if there are no modules loaded automaticly, is there a way to autodetect them ?
[14:17] <jrib> Agent_bob: ubuntu-minimal depends on bash, do you not have that installed?
[14:18] <erUSUL> rhineheart_m: i'm afraid i can not help you further (other than pinting you to the official help) becouse never set up a mail server myself
[14:18] <Agent_bob> jrib not installed.
[14:18] <kingamok> brb
[14:18] <noelferreira> do you know how to solve the problem of ralink wireless driver (rt61)? my connection is always coming down.
[14:18] <rhineheart_m> erUSUL: okay.. thanks anyway..
[14:18] <erUSUL> ubotu tell rhineheart_m about postfix | rhineheart_m see priv msg from ubotu
[14:18] <Agent_bob> jrib it's not a dependancy thing.  it's a deb priority "thang"
[14:18] <Sword_> hi
[14:18] <Agent_bob> jrib but i don't know how or where to change it.
[14:19] <jrib> Agent_bob: what do you mean by "deb proirity" thing?
[14:19] <danand> Agent_bob - think you can use aptitude. press ctrl-t to access the menu. from there you should be able to specify required behaviour for given packages ie hold, keep etc
[14:19] <Sword_> i want to know if  it its possible somehow to run Adobe Creative Suite 3 under Linux???
[14:19] <Squawk> rhineheart_m, sorry to jump in in mid conversation, but what exactly are you tyring to do? If you actualy want to set up a mail server you would probably be better getting help from the devs of the given mail server (sendmail, postfix etc) than from #ubuntu, which is more for ubuntu issues
[14:19] <brobostigon> !wine | Sword_
[14:19] <ubotu> Sword_: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[14:19] <jrib> Agent_bob: is your custom bash installed through a package?
[14:19] <Sword_> i know but for CS§?
[14:19] <Sword_> 3
[14:19] <bluewraith> test3r, haha, yeah. i keep trying to switch workspaces when i'm at work. booted dos a few weeks ago and was completly lost as to why my commands weren't working. Had to sit down and actually think about what I was trying to do
[14:20] <bazhang> Sword_: currently no
[14:20] <Sword_> :(
[14:20] <Agent_bob> danand if i only had aptitude....      i'll see about that.
[14:20] <Sword_> and this crossover program?
[14:20] <Sword_> doeas that work?
[14:20] <bazhang> Sword_: you can check their appdb for more info or visit #winehq
[14:20] <rhineheart_m> Squawk: thanks for the notice.. I been there already..but I guess people there are sleeping..nobody responded..
[14:20] <danand> Agent_bob - think you can also use dpkg - see man dpkg --> package flags
[14:21] <Sword_> thx guys
[14:21] <oldred> I`ve installed a psyBNc on my 7.10 and at reboot it don`t start... what can I do ?
[14:21] <bazhang> oldred how did you install it
[14:21] <test3r>  blue > i H8 dos now. i learned WinXP terminal has a lame version of auto-complete though
[14:21] <Squawk> rhineheart_m, yeah you get that a fair bit on irc, just leave the channel open and evntualy someone will turn up. I would certainly say that a full mailserver config is well beyond the limits of this channel
[14:22] <Blice> Okay, so, I tried "passwd blice", changed the password, but when I reboot and go into the Ubuntu log-in screen, it still tells me it's wrong?!
[14:22] <Blice> :(
[14:22] <Squawk> Blice, caps lock?
[14:22] <Blice> Nope
[14:22] <test3r> blice > did you 'SUDO' the commend?
[14:22] <Blice> No need to sudo, I was logged in as root.
[14:22] <Blice> This is recovery mode
[14:22] <rhineheart_m> Blice: what are you trying to do? logging to your box as superadmin?
[14:22] <vlt> Hello. I installed network-manager-openvpn. When I connect to an OpenVPN server my default route is set to the tun device. Why? How to avoid this?
[14:23] <oldred> ./psybnc
[14:23] <test3r> i didnt think recovery even put u in as ROOT root
[14:23] <Blice> No, try just "logging into your box", rhineheart.
[14:23] <Blice> Somehow my password got changed
[14:23] <Squawk> Blice, unless you explicitly changed it, you might have real problems. I would suggest installing chkrootkit as a minimum
[14:23] <Blice> Right now I'm using IRC in recovery mode, still. Thank god for Irssi or I'd be boned right now.
[14:24] <Blice> installing chkrootkit?
[14:24] <Blice> What's that?
[14:24] <cornix> Hm, seems like my new machine doesn't like Ubuntu
[14:24] <test3r> it is
[14:24] <test3r> change
[14:24] <test3r> root
[14:24] <test3r> you learn how to do that with Slack
[14:24] <noelferreira> do you know how to solve the problem of ralink wireless driver (rt61)? my connection is always coming down.
[14:24] <Squawk> chkrootkit is a bit of softare to check for rootkits and what not on your sytem, basicaly nasties that mgiht ahve got in
[14:24] <cornix> Live version doesn't load completely
[14:24] <bazhang> cornix could you be more precise  please
[14:24] <test3r> oh chK
[14:24] <cornix> Netinstall doesn't recognize my SATA HD
[14:25] <Squawk> Blice, if something other than you changed your user password then you have aproblem
[14:25] <test3r> its the damn K. everytime.  ;p
[14:25] <oldred> as a user, I`ve made make menuconf, make and ./psybnc
[14:25] <oldred> I must do this as a root ?
[14:25] <chemical> Hello there
[14:25] <jevangelo> in ubuntu server, how do i get apache2 to serve java content
[14:25] <Blice> So, I do 'apt-get install chkrootkit'?
[14:25] <cornix> Same DVD I tried to use now worked fine on my last machine
[14:25] <Agent_bob> danand danand would you be refering to "forbid version"  in the aptitude menu ?
[14:26] <alsadk> hischild  i install it but its not appered on applications>internet
[14:26] <Rimfrost> hi, im downloading Hardy Heron from distrowatch but is it stable to run yet or shall i take 7.10?
[14:26] <bazhang> gutsy Rimfrost
[14:26] <andy_> How do I get gcc-4.3? Anyone?
[14:26] <chemical> I have connected my *sound system with my toshiba satellite but the sound output is still form the internal speakers of the laptop not from the sound system
[14:26] <chemical> what should i do?
[14:26] <cornix> Gutsy got problems with SATA?
[14:26] <NetM> *andy_* from synaptic
[14:26] <cornix> No clue what else it could be
[14:26] <vlt> Does it make sense to install chrootkit on a possibly compromised machine?
[14:26] <Blice> ...So I do "apt-get install chkrootkit", right? I need an answer before I exit IRC :x
[14:26] <hischild> alsadk, if it doesn't show up, that means that either you installed the wrong one or the program doesn't use shortcuts and you have to create them
[14:27] <bazhang> does build-essential have that version of gcc andy_? not sure about the version number let me see
[14:27] <Rimfrost> ok
[14:27] <J_P> dennda:  install apt-get tcpd ;-)
[14:27] <bluewraith> chemical, I have the same problem. I havn't been able to find *anything* that can fix it yet. google searched for like, 2 hours.
[14:27] <cornix> Netinstall is recognizing my small IDE HD and even my external drive
[14:27] <Squawk> Blice, atl-f2 gets you a new login
[14:27] <test3r> Blice > that will get you that pak
[14:27] <Squawk> vlt, not really, but its the best hes gonna do
[14:27] <danand> Agent_bob - no, i was looking at the Hold option - Cancels any action on the selected package, and protect from future upgrades
[14:27] <Corty> hi
[14:27] <Blice> Okay
[14:27] <chemical> well someone send me this. watch me
[14:27] <test3r> no its ch K
[14:27] <test3r> K
[14:27] <vlt> Squawk: Shouldn't he rather check the hard drive from a voot disk?
[14:27] <vlt> *boot
[14:27] <Blice> chK?
[14:27] <Blice> Capital K?
[14:27] <andy_> bazhang: it seems that it only goes to 4.2. I didn't know if there was some special repository that might have 4.3
[14:27] <frold> anyone knows an application like AVnotes for windows - so you can put on yellow labels on your desktop?
[14:27] <alsadk> hischild  i downloaded the second one from the list
[14:27] <test3r> if it was just "CHROOT" youd b changing your root
[14:28] <test3r> how to chroot into an install
[14:28] <Agent_bob> danand yes i see.   thank you.
[14:28] <Blice> chkroot, ya
[14:28] <chemical> type:sudo su
[14:28] <hischild> Blice, capitals don't matter. Alternatively search for chkroot
[14:28] <chemical> and then
[14:28] <danand> Agent_bob - np
[14:28] <Blice> kk... I'ma go try this. Be back in a bit :/
[14:28] <chemical> echo "options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 model=lenovo" >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[14:28] <hischild> alsadk, it's not in our hands to give support for that package. ....
[14:28] <vlt> frold: knotes
[14:28] <Lectus> How to install *.deb packages in Ubuntu? I'm trying to install CodeBlocks.
[14:28] <Pici> !deb | Lectus
[14:28] <ubotu> Lectus: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility.
[14:29] <bazhang> Lectus: double clicking usually does it
[14:29] <chemical> but i can't test it in my system cause the laptop is of a friend of mine and he just left
[14:29] <erUSUL> Lectus: double click on them (gedebi will take care of them)
[14:29] <alsadk> hischild   thx
[14:29] <test3r> Blice > r u still there >? u donthaave a root kit problem on your TUX BOX? what r u STORING?

[14:29] <Pici> !u | test3r
[14:29] <ubotu> test3r: Unless you're Dutch or Flemish, or a government officier, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun.  If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you".  The same goes for "are", "why", "because", "anyone", and so on..
[14:29] <test3r> im a me
[14:29] <test3r> and u is we
[14:29] <cornix> hehe

[14:30] <cornix> :D
[14:30] <test3r> *busts into sum Beatles*
[14:30] <cornix> That's modern art :D
[14:30] <bazhang> !ot
[14:30] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[14:30] <cornix> also
[14:31] <cornix> Has Gutsy got problems with SATA?
[14:31] <cornix> Netinstall is recognizing my small IDE HD and even my external drive
[14:31] <NetM> *cornell* nop
[14:31] <cornix> Live CD is not booting at all
[14:31] <Squawk> cornix, no, all my sata stuff working fine
[14:31] <NetM> I ve installed @ sata
[14:31] <cornix> the load-bar is showing, then it hangs with just a cursor in the top left corner
[14:31] <bazhang> cornix try the alternate cd then
[14:31] <cornix> !alternate
[14:31] <ubotu> The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD.  Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal
[14:31] <NetM> *cornix* purple cursor?
[14:32] <cornix> white
[14:32] <NetM> Graphics is ok ?
[14:32] <cornix> The cursor looks normal
[14:32] <ForzaPalermo> hey guys, any way to make a vnc session from windows to linux through ssh tunneling run faster?
[14:32] <cornix> :D
[14:32] <cornix> text cursor
[14:32] <NetM> Ok :)
[14:32] <bluewraith> wow... google works fast. Its already parsed some pages that are less then an hour old.
[14:32] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  use a lighter desktop, reduce the # of colors of the display. lower the res.
[14:33] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  disable wallpaper and any extra effects.
[14:33] <cornix> hmpf, then I really will have to dl
[14:33] <ForzaPalermo> Dr_willis, i am already runningi at the lowest
[14:33] <cornix> Wait
[14:33] <ForzaPalermo> using tightvnc
[14:33] <cornix> Alternate CD is just for install?
[14:33] <cornix> I think I tried that already
[14:33] <bazhang> aye
[14:33] <bluewraith> chemical, i'll test that code out and let you know if it solved it for me. What model satellite is it?
[14:33] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  for a windows vnc server - i tend to use 'ultravnc' it may have more tweaks.
[14:33] <NetM> *cornix* only install
[14:33] <cornix> yeah, blue-ish background and all
[14:34] <cornix> that one didn't recognize my SATA :(
[14:34] <NetM> Gb?
[14:34] <cornix> 750
[14:34] <NetM> Hmmmm
[14:34] <bazhang> sata no worries here cornix
[14:34] <NetM> Dunno :/
[14:34] <Blice> Okay, so, I did chkrootkit. It didn't find anything.
[14:34] <chemical> @bluewraith Toshiba Sattelite Pro A120
[14:34] <Blice> I tried using passwd -u blice
[14:34] <Blice> And then changing the password again,
[14:34] <Blice> For both blice and root.
[14:35] <Blice> Meh. What else can I do here?
[14:35] <ForzaPalermo> Dr_willis, even when running on my home network it runs the same as how it runs here at work
[14:35] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  vnc can be sluggish. I agree
[14:36] <Blice> Anyone? :(
[14:36] <Squawk> Blice, make a new user and try logging in, see if that works?
[14:36] <Blice> What's the command to make a new user?
[14:36] <hischild> adduser
[14:36] <ForzaPalermo> are there any better alternatives
[14:36] <cornix> Meh, I'll try the install cd again
[14:36] <Squawk> Blice, useradd
[14:36] <Blice> Thanks. I'll see how it goes
[14:37] <cornix> but I even ran HD recognition twice and it didn't recognize the install HD
[14:37] <Squawk> hischild, why does he keep quitting. I presume hes on command line, so why not just alt-f#?
[14:37] <cornix> I COULD move all shizzle off my IDE HD though and just put Ubuntu on that one :D
[14:38] <hischild> Squawk, he's in recovery mode ... i'm not sure wether it supports multiple terminals ...
[14:38] <Dr_willis> hischild,  i think it does. :) its just like no-X running, and some services not going.
[14:38] <ForzaPalermo> Dr_willis, any better alternatives than vnc?
[14:38] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  I only use vnc. freenx i hear works great for linux to linux.. but i dont do that.
[14:39] <cornix> Hm, might running Linux and Windows from 2 different physical HDs cause any problems?
[14:39] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  i use the ultravnc server for windows. It  may have some addational speed up tweaks.
[14:39] <bluewraith> chemical, that didn't do anything for me. I still get sound from the laptop speakers
[14:39] <test3r> u can always gain ROOT to a drive from a LiveCD , yes?
[14:39] <cornix> Or will the bootloader work fine with it?
[14:39] <test3r> should he try a command from after booting to That?
[14:39] <Dr_willis> cornix,  thats how i always do it.
[14:39] <cornix> okies, so it should work
[14:39] <hischild> Dr_willis, hmm ... it might ... you know what, i'll just try :p
[14:39] <Dr_willis> cornix,  of course. :)
[14:39] <chemical> I'm googling too so i'keep you informed if anything positive happens
[14:39] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, what do you want, access to the whole desktop or just to the command line. If just command line, ssh?
[14:40] <Dr_willis> hischild,  or teach him to use screen :)
[14:40] <ForzaPalermo> no gui desktop
[14:40] <ForzaPalermo> so i can download movies while im at work and IM
[14:40] <liberion> hey guys whats the difference between multiverse and universe repositories?
[14:40] <hischild> Dr_willis, hmm ... yeah would also be an option ... my second box is bootin in to recovery now ... let's see
[14:40] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, you can do that from command line you know ;) irssi has IM plugins, wget to download files from the interweb ;)
[14:40] <test3r> Squawk > is there command he can run from LiveCD to r-instate root & reset his pass on his main account on the drive?
[14:41] <hischild> Dr_willis, nope ... you can't ... it'll just give you a blank screen
[14:41] <ForzaPalermo> Squawk, i have no clue how to do that lol
[14:41] <Dr_willis> hischild,  never noticed. :)  odd that it disables that.
[14:41] <ForzaPalermo> Squawk,  any tight vnc alternatives that run faster?
[14:41] <Squawk> test3r, I would think so, but not sure....
[14:41] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, no idea im afriad, never used it
[14:41] <XCasp> хмм
[14:41] <ForzaPalermo> :(
[14:41] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  ultravnc, vnc4server, theres proberly a dozen vnc variants out.
[14:41] <test3r> Squawk > ive read that bfore. i dont know what it would b. ima google it on box next to me
[14:42] <Squawk> test3r, I know it should be easy, since I have done it in the past (forgot root password...)
[14:42] <hischild> Dr_willis, neither did i, although i can assume that it does that so it doesn't have to load another program that might do something bad
[14:42] <waylandbill> ForzaPalermo: it's not hard to learn the CLI. Just have to read and comprehend. :)
[14:42] <ForzaPalermo> waylandbill, no time for that lol
[14:42] <Dr_willis> hischild,  any other program? its allready ran the login program on the first console. :) so why not more.
[14:42] <Dr_willis> hischild,  actually waiut.. it auto logins in dont it.. no LOGIN:
[14:43] <ForzaPalermo> while im at it guys, with tightvnc, to x11vnc i cannot get filee transfers going, anthing i can do to fix that.... alternatives... non command line alternatives preferably :)
[14:43] <Dr_willis> hischild,  the extend ive used recovery mode is to fsck some disks. :) thats about it. Other then that i always use livecd's
[14:43] <waylandbill> ForzaPalermo: you should make time to learn at least one new thing a day is my thoughts.
[14:43] <test3r> OK
[14:43] <test3r> is here
[14:43] <test3r> back?
[14:43] <ForzaPalermo> its hard when ur working all day
[14:43] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  ive found x11vnc to be VERY sluggish compared to the other 'vncservers'
[14:43] <hischild> Dr_willis, i can imagine that if something bad does something on let's say the 5th screen ... it can't do that if that screen is disabled ... and yeah it auto logs in
[14:44] <ForzaPalermo> Dr_willis, yeah but its the only thing i can run that i KNOW of that runs my CURRENT display :0
[14:44] <test3r> Squawk > I know u tell him to run 'passwd' but did u tell him to run it like 'passwd HisNormalUserName' ???
[14:44] <ForzaPalermo> not display 1
[14:44] <ForzaPalermo> which is a different session
[14:44] <chemical> @bluewraith check this out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=457453
[14:44] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  i dont share current displays that makes it MUCH more sluggish also. :)
[14:44] <test3r> Squawk  he just set the root=s pass on his box lol
[14:44] <waylandbill> ForzaPalermo: i suppose ... although I count the learning as working as well. :-D
[14:44] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  i keep my torrent/im/whatever in a nice littke session thats using jwm, for me to remote access
[14:44] <simion314> hi, i just read this article and the comments http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/microsoft/archives/132891.asp  and if you have the time you should read it and post a comment to suport Ubuntu. I do not want to spam just i want to increase ubuntu popularity
[14:44] <Squawk> test3r, ok I knjow how to do it
[14:44] <test3r> =D
[14:45] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  i find it decently quick when doing it that way.
[14:45] <ForzaPalermo> Dr_willis, jwm?
[14:45] <Dr_willis> !info jwm | ForzaPalermo
[14:45] <ubotu> forzapalermo: jwm (source: jwm): Very small lightweight pure X11 window manager with tray and menus. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5-1 (gutsy), package size 82 kB, installed size 268 kB
[14:45] <Corty> http://paste.debian.net/50172 <- any ideas?
[14:45] <Squawk> test3r, err, hmm, cant remember
[14:45] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  as i suggested earlier - use a very light window manager.
[14:45] <ForzaPalermo> speed isnt that bad for me, but its just a little choppy, ive heard of people watching movies no problem through ssh
[14:45] <test3r> Squawk > you found re-root from LiveCD process? link , yes?
[14:46] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  one has to wonder how they get sound...
[14:46] <bluewraith> chemical, my problem isn't a lack of speakers... but an overuse. they still work when i try to use headphones. my solution was to just deal with it, since i dont use headphones that often.
[14:46] <Squawk> test3r, its gentoo, but it will work
[14:46] <Squawk> test3r: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Reset_a_Lost_Root_Password
[14:46] <MDCore> hey all. I'm trying to get hold of git-core >= 1.5.3 for gutsy. even dapper has it (via backports)
[14:46] <void^> Dr_willis: pulseaudio is nice for that purpose
[14:46] <test3r> yes they say recovery console then to just use passwd but THAT dood wants to set it to his normal acc not root itself id imagine
[14:46] <chemical> oh sorry
[14:46] <Dr_willis> ForzaPalermo,  You could alwasys run xming, and have the x apps appear locally.
[14:47] <Blice> Okay, so, I tried making a new user.
[14:47] <waylandbill> Corty: those modules compiled against the current running kernel?
[14:47] <Blice> And then I used passwd to change it's password
[14:47] <Squawk> test3r, he said hes locked out of root and normal
[14:47] <Blice> And I can't log in with it, either. Says wrong password.
[14:47] <ForzaPalermo> so runnging jwm runs a different session>?
[14:47] <Blice> So...  You might want to try to re-root from a LiveCD
[14:48] <Blice> What will I be looking for on that, Squawk?
[14:48] <Corty> waylandbill, 8999329      0 lrwxrwxrwx  1 root src         22 2008-02-28 21:56 linux -> linux-headers-<IP_ADDRESS>
[14:48] <Squawk> Blice, no idea, read it and see if something interesting crops up
[14:48] <Blice> I have to exit IRC to do this, since it's only one terminal here in recovery, so give me everything I need to know before I exit :(
[14:48] <Blice> Eh.
[14:49] <Blice> Well alright. If there's nothing interesting, what do I try after that?
[14:49] <lubse> hello
[14:49] <Squawk> Blice, no idea
[14:49] <Blice> This sucks man
[14:49] <bazhang> hi lubse
[14:49] <test3r> instead o tail can he pipe that into a TXT file
[14:49] <test3r> so it creates a type of log he can read
[14:49] <lubse> could someone help me find out what processor I have?
[14:49] <Squawk> Blice, it sounds like you have successfully borked your login stuff
[14:49] <lubse> its not showing up in lspci
[14:50] <wols> lubse: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[14:50] <Squawk> Blice, im hoping auth.log will give us a clue as to where
[14:50] <test3r> lol yeah nice job Blice whatever u did Dont Do That next time
[14:50] <yunhual> is there a "select all" function in gnome-terminal, like notepad ???
[14:50] <Blice> Well, remember Squawk, it was when I was editing the conf files for winbind, samba, and krb that this happened.
[14:50] <Blice> Also pam.d
[14:50] <Squawk> lol
[14:50] <Dr_willis> Blice,  learn to use 'screen ' so yoyu dont have to exit irc
[14:50] <Squawk> Blice, problem is pam.d
[14:50] <kingamok> hello
[14:50] <Blice> Problem is pam.d, eh?
[14:50] <waylandbill> Corty: 2.6.24? you using hardy or backports?
[14:50] <Corty> hi
[14:51] <vlt> Hello. I installed network-manager-openvpn. When I connect to an OpenVPN server using NetworkManager instead of conf files my default route is set to the tun device. Why? How to avoid this?
[14:51] <Squawk> Blice, and I have literaly no experience playing with pam.d, im not brave enough ;)
[14:51] <Dr_willis> Gee ive not had to mess with pam in... well... ever... I know better. :)
[14:51] <Dr_willis> never needed to.
[14:51] <hischild> Blice, weren't you trying to hang your ubuntu box in an AD domain?
[14:51] <Corty> waylandbill, compiled myself
[14:51] <Squawk> Blice, pam = plugable authentication modules, ie, logins
[14:51] <Blice> Yes, hischild
[14:51] <test3r> Dr Willis > o can u throw irc onto terminal (F3) by a 'irssi screen 0.3' command or the such?
[14:51] <hischild> Blice, have you tried to login using the AD details?
[14:51] <Squawk> hischild, hang his box seems appropriate :(
[14:51] <kingamok> Squawk i'm back
[14:51] <yunhual> is there a "select all" function in gnome-terminal, like notepad ???
[14:51] <chemical> bluewraith ,
[14:51] <Corty> waylandbill, but as i read that... would be a better idea to use a hardy package?
[14:52] <chemical> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_make_sound_work_with_Intel_Integrated_Sound_Cards
[14:52] <hischild> Squawk, i apologize ... *removes ubuntu from the line*
[14:52] <MrKeuner> hi, I need to increase the debugging/verbosity level of acpid into syslog and I edit the /etc/defaults/acpid file and add -d to OPTIONS variable. However, when I restart /etc/init.d/acpid I get all the log in the stdout/stderr(which is also a documented feature). How can I make acpid log these into /var/log/acpid as well? (-l option does not work either, neither does 2>&1 >> /var/log/acpid)
[14:52] <Blice> Hrmmm
[14:52] <Dr_willis> test3r,  possibially.  - but i havent had to do that in ages..
[14:52] <lubse> model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     T7250  @ 2.00GHz
[14:52] <Corty> chemical, using gutsy and 2.6.24, so alsa is built in my kernel.
[14:52] <kingamok> when i do ifconfig i see this wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:17:9A:D0:BD:02
[14:52] <kingamok>           inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>  Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS>  Mask:<IP_ADDRESS>
[14:52] <bluewraith> chemical, yes?
[14:52] <Dr_willis> test3r,  id just install screen, or twin. :) and get multi terms that way
[14:52] <test3r> Dr willis > hey how comes it on my Compizfusion box the F terminals r brok after I boot up and log in?
[14:52] <kingamok> what is that means, problem with my router/adaptor or ubuntu itself?
[14:52] <chemical> what about this link :http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_make_sound_work_with_Intel_Integrated_Sound_Cards
[14:53] <wols> lubse: that's nice but why do we care?
[14:53] <waylandbill> Corty: should be okay as long as the kernel and modules were built from the same code and headers.
[14:53] <Blice> Well, alright, so, what I think we should do.... Squawk, can you go on the Ubuntu forums for me? In the network section, I have a thread in there. Can you paste in the text from each file in your pam.d so I can edit mine back to how it was?
[14:53] <Squawk> kingamok, that means your card is still configured. That being the case, not sure what the problem is
[14:53] <Dr_willis> test3r,  most likely its the framebuffer fighting with the X server.
[14:53] <wols> kingamok: why should htere be a problem?
[14:53] <Corty> waylandbill, ok. :)
[14:53] <Dr_willis> test3r,  as a test. disable the framebuffer. I think the framebuffer wiki ubuntu page has info on that.
[14:53] <Squawk> Blice, link, and tell me what files you have
[14:53] <test3r> oooooooo OK so kill that framebufer in the card setup OK kewl
[14:53] <Le-Chuck_ITA> Hi all, somebody knows how to set a shortcut to open the gimmie menu?
[14:53] <kingamok> my wireless disconnect if idle a few minutes
[14:53] <Dr_willis> test3r,  i disable the framebuffer from the grub menu.lst file
[14:53] <Blice> Arg... I can't link.. I have no browser here.
[14:53] <chemical> My ubuntu system is feisty an i'm thinking of upgrading it
[14:54] <chemical> but...
[14:54] <Dr_willis> test3r,  Not siure what/where you are refering to.
[14:54] <waylandbill> Corty: you may try building both again.
[14:54] <lubse> Now am I running the right ubuntu? I think I installed the i86 ubuntu
[14:54] <Corty> waylandbill, got the vanilla sources, and built my own .deb packages for headers and image
[14:54] <Squawk> kingamok, when the network drops, is it the internet thats inaccessible? can you still ping the router (ie, are you certain the problem is wireless?). When it does drop, try running iwlist wlan0 scan, and see if wifi is still running
[14:54] <chemical> i have 769 Mb RAM does it worthit?
[14:54] <Corty> waylandbill, ok, just startet with that
[14:54] <lubse> but its an x64 cpu
[14:54] <Blice> But, I need uhm... common-auth, common-sesson, sudo, and common-account
[14:54] <Blice> In the pam.d folder
[14:54] <chemical> 786 sorry
[14:54] <Dr_willis> lubse,  you proberly have no real need to use the 64 bit version of ubuntu. Most people dont.
[14:54] <kostkon> chemical, your amount of memory is good enough
[14:54] <Squawk> Blice, oh christ you havnt been hilighting me, no clue how many lines I missed
[14:55] <kingamok> internet inaccessible
[14:55] <Squawk> Blice, you can browse the net with lynx
[14:55] <Corty> waylandbill, what else, if that will not solve it?
[14:55] <test3r> Dr Willis > yes im sure that's it. ty ill try fussing with that all
[14:55] <Le-Chuck_ITA> chemical: I don't think memory requirements of gutsy are that different from those of feisty
[14:55] <bazhang> chemical sure no worries
[14:55] <brobostigon> lubse: i386 will run on x64, but wont support all the x64 features.
[14:55] <Le-Chuck_ITA> moreover hardy seems pretty more efficient than gutsy
[14:55] <Squawk> kingamok, so you can still see the router? that being the case the problem is not your wifi, its your internet connection
[14:55] <Dr_willis> x64 ubuntu - has issues with some areas also..
[14:55] <Squawk> Blice, how do I find the thread?
[14:55] <Corty> waylandbill, i did that yesterday and forgot to deactivate a few conflicting modules, so i could not insert the module. but today it's throwing other errors, as you can see at the pastebin
[14:55] <Blice> Squawk: I need sudo, common-account, common-auth, and common-session from the pam.d folder; My thread is in the "Networking and wireless" section of the Ubuntu forums, it should still be on the first page in there. My username is Blice.
[14:56] <chemical> the main reason of becoming linux user is attractive usability
[14:56] <Squawk> Blice, I found the thread, one sec
[14:56] <Blice> Squawk: Thanks so much, man.
[14:56] <waylandbill> Corty: I saw the errors. The missing symbols suggest code not in the kernel that the headers say there are.
[14:56] <Le-Chuck_ITA> chemical: until ubuntu many people believed it was the countrary :)
[14:56] <komputes> chemical: sure you're not talking about apple?
[14:56] <chemical> so i don't what?
[14:57] <chemical> what??
[14:57] <dundel> if i click my AWN showdesktop applet, conky is getting minimized to. Is there a way to disable this?
[14:57] <Corty> waylandbill, ok
[14:57] <waylandbill> Corty: you may want to see if someone in #linux would know more about it.
[14:57] <chemical> why you say  that?
[14:57] <Corty> waylandbill, ok, thanks :)
[14:57] <komputes> chemical: put the name of who you're talking to before the msg
[14:58] <lubse> how do I enable 'universe' ?
[14:58] <chemical> komputes ,i mean speed not effect and 3d crap
[14:58] <komputes> lubse: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:59] <bazhang> lubse go into synaptic package manager and enable the repository then hit reload
[14:59] <komputes> lubse: uncomment the lines that start with "deb"
[14:59] <kingamok> hello
[14:59] <ir3> hey guys, when trying to update banshee from source I get that I don't meet the mono-zeroconf requirements (when running ./configure), if I had version 13.1 working shouldn't I have this?
[14:59] <kingamok> i'm disconnecting again
[14:59] <komputes> lubse: then sudo apt-get update
[14:59] <cored> hi guys
[15:00] <kingamok> i do iwlist scanning when it drop the result is wlan0     No scan results
[15:00] <Squawk> Blice, all done
[15:00] <cored> i'm running gutsy, i want to know in which repo is maven2
[15:00] <wols> !info maven2
[15:00] <ubotu> Package maven2 does not exist in gutsy
[15:00] <cored> :-(
[15:00] <komputes> chemical: yeah, everyones competin on what you can do, 3d cubes, windows in roladex motion, window echoing into space, it's all BS
[15:00] <chemical> koputes , what's the estimated upgrade time?
[15:00] <cored> the thing is that ubuntu dosen't set the JAVA_HOME var by default
[15:00] <Squawk> kingamok, then your problem is wifi coverage, your wireless signal is dropping for some reason
[15:00] <Blice> Ok Squawk, let me go take a look.
[15:00] <Squawk> kingamok, move the router closer to your computer to check
[15:00] <komputes> chemical: depends what you're upgrading?
[15:01] <MDCore> !info git-core
[15:01] <ubotu> git-core (source: git-core): fast, scalable, distributed revision control system. In component main, is optional. Version 1:<IP_ADDRESS>-2build1 (gutsy), package size 3545 kB, installed size 7452 kB
[15:01] <kingamok> i wonder it happen when on ubuntu, and the line ok when on winxp
[15:01] <chemical> feisty
[15:01] <chemical> koputes ,my feisty of coure
[15:01] <xeenan> I need help with sound issues please
[15:01] <bazhang> chemical about an hour if you have dsl
[15:01] <komputes> chemical: cant tell you. and it's kom not kop
[15:02] <chemical> komputes , i home it will not fail me'
[15:02] <Le-Chuck_ITA> chemical: what IRC client are you using? Try to use the TAB key to complete
[15:02] <confox> hello
[15:02] <chemical> komputes , i hop it will not fail me'
[15:02] <Le-Chuck_ITA> chemical: I mean to complete user names :)
[15:02] <komputes> chemical: good luck
[15:03] <ir3> hey guys, when trying to update banshee from source I get that I don't meet the mono-zeroconf requirements [>= 0.7.2] (when running ./configure), where can I find it?
[15:03] <bazhang> hi confox
[15:03] <binod> dfs
[15:03] <lubse> I dont have permissions to save the file :-/
[15:03] <confox> hello bazhang
[15:03] <Le-Chuck_ITA> chemical: before upgrading move /usr/local out of the way if you have something into that
[15:03] <MrObvious> ir3: You can find the package name by doing a apt-cache search libmono | grep dev
[15:03] <bazhang> binod you have an actual support question?
[15:04] <Le-Chuck_ITA> chemical: that's the only problem I know of, and it's a shame nobody agrees that it should be fixed
[15:04] <brobostigon> ir3: packages.ubuntu.com,
[15:04] <xeenan> I have a creative x-fi card but haven't found any drivers for it I also have an onboard card but was wondering if I took the xfi out if there was a command line to rescan hardware
[15:04] <test3r> How do i add highlight to a person in Pidgin ?
[15:04] <chemical> Le-chuck_ITA , you mean bucking it up?
[15:04] <hischild> xeenan, no need for that, as it does that automatically
[15:04] <test3r> ive right clicked list on right. tried in here. Where is that option?
[15:04] <Le-Chuck_ITA> mv /usr/local /usr/local.bak
[15:04] <Le-Chuck_ITA> that'd be fine :)
[15:05] <bluewraith> does anyone know of a website to see if my ISP is blocking my incoming port 80?
[15:05] <lubse> komputes: how do I save the file?
[15:05] <Squawk> Guys, I just tried to run mplayer and I get an erro about "cant open joystick device". Now maybe im missing something, but to me a joystick is a bit of gaming hardware that I explicitly compiled out of my kernel. Does joystick refer to something else in this isntance?
[15:05] <nick__> how do you turn gdm on in ubuntu 8.04?
[15:05] <MrObvious> bluewraith: Run Shields Up! on grc.com
[15:05] <Squawk> bluewraith, I can port scan you if you want
[15:05] <confox> im trying to make my desktop move but is it any good?
[15:05] <lubse> it wont let me, doesnt ask me for root password either
[15:05] <brobostigon> !hardy | nick_
[15:05] <xeenan> so if it has my xfi card in the hardware info does that mean its installed
[15:05] <ubotu> nick_: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[15:05] <test3r> yes kill the joyustick heh
[15:05] <chemical> Le-chuck_ITA , destination?and how reusing it after the upgrade
[15:05] <bazhang> nick__: ask in #ubuntu+1
[15:06] <ir3> ok, so I have to install libmono-dev, newby question but what the command line input?
[15:06] <komputes> lubse: file > save
[15:06] <vlt> `touch 1; touch 2;` => ok. `mv 2 1` => Operation not permitted.  Any idea how to solve this?
[15:06] <bluewraith> MrObvious, thanks
[15:06] <lubse> komputes: no permissions
[15:06] <lubse> :-/
[15:06] <komputes> lubse: CTRL - S
[15:06] <MrObvious> bluewraith: YW
[15:06] <brobostigon> ir3: sudo apt-get "packagename"
[15:06] <bluewraith> squawk, maybe later.. :)
[15:06] <komputes> lubse: you did not sudo
[15:06] <Squawk> vlt, nothing wrong with that
[15:06] <lubse> true
[15:06] <brobostigon> ir3: sudo apt-get install packagename
[15:07] <Squawk> vlt, err, whats the =>
[15:07] <komputes> lubse: go back and SUDO gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:07] <test3r> blue > you want to chek ur port 80?
[15:07] <komputes> lubse: sudo in small letters
[15:07] <test3r> run a tracert to google.com:80
[15:07] <test3r> yes? or wont that do it?
[15:07] <Squawk> test3r, nope
[15:07] <lubse> bash: sudu: command not found
[15:07] <Squawk> test3r, they aint gonna block http out
[15:07] <test3r> :(
[15:07] <Squawk> lubse, sudo
[15:07] <vlt> Squawk: I just use "=>" here to show the result of the command.
[15:07] <bazhang> lubse sudo
[15:07] <test3r> yeah beside the fact that 80 is standard
[15:07] <lubse> ooow
[15:07] <lubse> sorry
[15:08] <test3r> and they wound t be an ISP if they couldnt send u port80
[15:08] <Squawk> vlt touch 1; touch 2; mv 2 1 should work fine
[15:08] <xeenan> does anyone know if there is a program that will install software without haveing to type it in all the time
[15:08] <vlt> Squawk: I expected to be allowed to mv if I'm allowd to touch .. hmmmm
[15:08] <Pici> xeenan: Applications>Add/Remove or System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager
[15:08] <vlt> Squawk: Maybe it's an sshfs problem.
[15:08] <Squawk> vlt, is this done remotely?
[15:09] <kingamok> brb restart
[15:09] <confox> kk
[15:09] <xeenan> thanks
[15:09] <Squawk> vlt, you might not have overwwrite permission
[15:09] <vlt> Squawk: There's a difference between write and overwrite?
[15:09] <vlt> Squawk: Didn't know that. Where is this defined?
[15:10] <bluewraith> MrObvious, the ports are all marked as stealth. i'm behind a wifirouter, i'm assuming thats the problem?
[15:10] <komputes> vlt: overwrite = delete old file and replace it with this file which has the same name
[15:11] <MrObvious> bluewraith: It may not work on Linux but I can't be sure.
[15:11] <ir3> Running: apt-cache search libmono | grep dev
[15:11] <ir3> gives: libmono-dev - libraries for the Mono JIT - Development files
[15:11] <ir3> but running: sudo apt-get libmono-dev
[15:11] <ir3> gives: E: Invalid operation libmono-dev
[15:11] <Squawk> vlt, if its ssh then its in ssh config. Many applications permit you to create a file but not remove one. An overwrite effectivly removes the file
[15:11] <MrObvious> bluewraith: Linux is that much more secure.
[15:11] <Blice> Squawk: Oh man, thank you so much. I replaced my files with yours, and I'm logged in now and things are good.
[15:11] <ir3> Do I have to add another repo?
[15:11] <Pici> ir3: sudo apt-get install packagename
[15:11] <komputes> ir3: install
[15:11] <bluewraith> MrObvious, yeah, i knew it was pretty secure
[15:11] <Squawk> blice, never, ever play with pam
[15:11] <brobostigon> ir3: try, sudo apt-get install packagename
[15:11] <komputes> ir3: don't feel bad I do that aaaaaallll the time
[15:11] <ir3> haha! cheers guys
[15:12] <Blice> Squawk: So, finally I'm back. I do, however, still really need to join this domain, so I'm afraid I'll have to play with pam again :(
[15:12] <Squawk> Blice, pam will have nothing to do with joining the domain
[15:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Can K9copy take a region 2 "Pal" DVD and rip it so I can make an "NTSC" dvd from it?
[15:12] <Blice> Squawk: Each tutorial for joining the domain, even samba's themselves, have a part where you have to edit pam.
[15:12] <ir3> well that didn't fix it, apparently i'll up to date, any other ideas where mono-zeroconf might live?
[15:13] <ir3> i'm*
[15:13] <Blice> Squawk: I think I may know where I messed up. There was a line you edited, and in it, it had "use_first_pass", do you think I'm supposed to put my password there instead of that?
[15:13] <test3r> Blice > you fooled with some thing called the Plugin Auth Module ? isnt that part of core?
[15:13] <NetM> Can u tell me rapidshare premium download managers?
[15:13] <lubse> does ubuntu let me swap the Fn and the Ctrl key?
[15:13] <Squawk> Blice, I have no clue
[15:13] <lubse> I keep pressing Fn, instead of Ctrl :(
[15:13] <Blice> Squawk: Alright.
[15:13] <komputes> lubse: eugh, those keyboards
[15:13] <bazhang> NetM: wrong channel for that
[15:13] <NetM> Ok sorryz

[15:16] <Tm_T> hi kids
[15:16] <Blice> test3r: I had to edit my pam so I could join this windows domain, so it would use winbind.
[15:16] <test3r> well - id suggest a fresh install. perhaps even of an older distro
[15:16] <test3r> a windows domain?

[15:17] <test3r> its all in menus
[15:17] <AJC_Z0> So says a popup following a "Check" in Update manager
[15:17] <Blice> No, there's some things you have to edit in parts of pam.d, test3r.
[15:17] <Blice> So, where is the menu to join a windows domain, test3r..?
[15:17] <lubse> there are programs on windows that let you rebind any key on the keyboard
[15:17] <Squawk> Blice, can you show me the webpage you reading from?
[15:17] <Blice> Squawk: Second.

[15:20] <ir3> I'm still running into problems, i'm up-to-date with libmono-dev but the ./configure still complains about mono-zeroconf requirements, any other ideas where it might live?
[15:20] <Blice> Squawk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto
[15:21] <xeenan> thanks hopefully that works i have an x-fi card that plp say wont work in linux
[15:21] <Squawk> Blice, wth are you trying to do? are you not just trying to get file sharing working accross your network?
[15:22] <test3r> oh noehz !  I need to literally be a part of the domain here.
[15:23] <Blice> Squawk*
[15:23] <test3r> yeah he's got that evil thing turned on
[15:23] <test3r> Blice > I wish you luck
[15:23] <Squawk> Blice, for what purpose?
[15:23] <Squawk> Blice, dont just be a part of it "because". Have a reason
[15:23] <Blice> Squawk: Mainly because I can't access our SQL server in this LAN without being a part of the domain; Among a couple other servers...
[15:23] <ForzaPalermo> does anone know of the best way to transfer files from windows to linux, and back through ssh tunnel, my vnc wont do it?
[15:24] <tomd123> does anyone know of an applet kind of like the weather one for the network? I would like to be able to view my total bandwidth usage with in the past 24 hours. Any suggestinos would be appreciated :P
[15:24] <hischild> ForzaPalermo, use winscp on windows to transfer by ssh
[15:24] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, scp?
[15:24] <ForzaPalermo> hischild, this is a sepearte program>?
[15:24] <brobostigon> tomd123: gkrellm
[15:24] <hischild> ForzaPalermo, that is the name of the program for windows yes
[15:24] <soldats> tomd123: conky
[15:25] <ForzaPalermo> whats the diff between scp and winscp
[15:25] <m1r> hello
[15:25] <Squawk> tomd123, for simply bandwidth, vnstat
[15:25] <test3r> Blice > is there a way u can setup a box that is "always" part of this domain , a port if u will, then just connect in thru that ?
[15:25] <hischild> ForzaPalermo, scp is the protocol,, winscp the progarm
[15:25] <test3r> :)
[15:25] <ForzaPalermo> oh
[15:25] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, scp is the protocol, winscp is a client ath runs on windows that supports it
[15:25] <ForzaPalermo> hischild, how fast is it
[15:25] <hischild> ForzaPalermo, how fast you want it to be (it has a trottle on it)
[15:26] <ForzaPalermo> just decent
[15:26] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, dont know how fast the client is, but scp is as quick as your network
[15:26] <Blice> test3r: You mean, connect to a computer that's part of the domain and go 'through' it? No thanks; They're all windows machines anyways, I have a feeling I'd have even more trouble. But I disgress, there's a lot of various things that I need to be a part of our domain to do.
[15:26] <ForzaPalermo> send music and other files over
[15:26] <test3r> see
[15:26] <YazzY> hi guys, i cannot google so i need to ask here: what is the command to rebuild initrd.img files for given kernel ?
[15:26] <ForzaPalermo> ok, andi can go back and forth from windows to linux and vice versa?
[15:26] <test3r> the one u connect WITH you could turn the active directory OFF
[15:26] <hischild> ForzaPalermo, use winscp, it's fast.  For the other way around (linux -> windows) use samba shares
[15:26] <test3r> then it would interface Normal. Hopefully.
[15:26] <Lilacor> join #nexenta
[15:26] <Lilacor> grrr
[15:26] <ForzaPalermo> hischild, how do i set that up?
[15:27] <ForzaPalermo> i have samba installed
[15:27] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, hischild, or install something like cygwin and use rsync ;)
[15:27] <hischild> ForzaPalermo, create a shared folder on windows, on linux click on network and then windows network. it'll find it there.
[15:27] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, install an ftpd ;). Many ways to do it, my preference would be either ftp or scp
[15:27] <hischild> Squawk, let's keep it easy for a first timer :p
[15:28] <ForzaPalermo> whatever is faster
[15:28] <iblicf> is there a way to re-generate /boot/grub/menu.lst , i just delete by mistake
[15:28] <test3r> ps: im available for Hire ATM
[15:28] <PsynoKhi0> howdy, got a few hassles trying to get a gutsy-based compy on the net
[15:28] <Squawk> hischild, hehe k, but I have rsync backing up my mums windows machine to my linux box every time she double clicks a shortcut on the desktop ;)
[15:28] <ForzaPalermo> cgwin isnt that like putt?
[15:28] <ForzaPalermo> putty
[15:28] <hischild> iblicf, update-grub :-_

[15:28] <iblicf> hischild, really ? thanks ...
[15:28] <PsynoKhi0> meh,not wireless
[15:28] <ere4si> iblicf, sudo update-grub
[15:28] <YazzY> i have no X running
[15:28] <test3r> oh, sry. i only said it because of the ingenious solution i just had for Blice
[15:28] <Squawk> ForzaPalermom no its a kinda of linux prot for windows, its a bit complicated until you understand a lot bout linux.
[15:28] <Pici> ForzaPalermo: This is a bit offtopic for this channel, I suggest asking in ##windows
[15:29] <erUSUL> YazzY: mkinitrd ?? mkinitramfs ??
[15:29] <ForzaPalermo> Pici, well it deals with linux :)
[15:29] <hischild> !info update-grub
[15:29] <Squawk> YazzY, one sec i rad that recetly
[15:29] <ubotu> Package update-grub does not exist in gutsy
[15:29] <YazzY> Squawk: oki
[15:29] <hischild> humorous
[15:29] <brobostigon> YazzY: use lynx, its a cli web browser
[15:29] <Pici> ForzaPalermo: But asking about cygwin is not an Ubuntu question and this isnt a general Linux channel.
[15:29] <xeenan> how do i know what ver. of driver to download I have all the options like '''tar.gz,,,tar.bz2,,,rpm...ect'''
[15:30] <kaernae> how could i get answer why my computer can't load desktop effects?
[15:30] <Squawk> YazzY, mkinitrd (man it to find out how to use it, im in gentoo atm so cant look)
[15:30] <ForzaPalermo> hischild, ok, but if i set up a shared folder on my computer at work, how does samba pick it up?.
[15:30] <iblicf> ere4si, cool ,,thank u , and hischild ^^
[15:30] <PsynoKhi0> kaernae: drivers, or unsupported features
[15:30] <hischild> ForzaPalermo, you mean as in long range file transfer? use ftp
[15:30] <ere4si> iblicf, lots of luck :)
[15:31] <bluewraith> can anyone recomment a good distro for a headless LAMP server?
[15:31] <hischild> bluewraith, ... what you think... ubuntu ofcourse :-)
[15:31] <erUSUL> bluewraith: ubuntu server ??? what else did you expect here XP
[15:31] <YazzY> Squawk: hm, i dont have that binary, i have mkinitramfs
[15:31] <ere4si> bluewraith, ubuntu server
[15:31] <test3r> hahahahah
[15:31] <hischild> ForzaPalermo, i mistook your request as for just at home transfer ... for long range, you can use ftp to transfer it :-)
[15:32] <Squawk> YazzY, seems reasonable that that should do it (it might be a typo on the page im looking at)
[15:32] <bluewraith> haha... thanks guys. figured that would come out
[15:32] <ForzaPalermo> hischild, not scp?
[15:32] <Pici> hischild: Why not scp?
[15:32] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, you can use scp wherever
[15:32] <ForzaPalermo> ok, now i just downlaoded winscp
[15:32] <hischild> Pici, i'm unaware of scp capable servers for windows ...
[15:32] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, i use scp to transfer files to my web host, and lord alone knows where that is
[15:32] <ForzaPalermo> i can run this in accordance iwth putty
[15:32] <ForzaPalermo> or that is sepearte
[15:32] <MrKeuner> hi, I need to increase the debugging/verbosity level of acpid into syslog and I edit the /etc/defaults/acpid file and add -d to OPTIONS variable. However, when I restart /etc/init.d/acpid I get all the log in the stdout/stderr(which is also a documented feature). How can I make acpid log these into /var/log/acpid as well? (-l option does not work either, neither does 2>&1 >> /var/log/acpid)

[15:32] <ubotu> For discussion and help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubotu equivalents
[15:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Can K9copy take a region 2 "Pal" DVD and make an "NTSC" dvd from it?
[15:33] <Squawk> MrKeuner, could it be a syslog option you need to change, rather than acpid?
[15:34] <dnquark> g'morning y'all.  anyone know how to make synaptics trackpoint play nice with ubuntu?
[15:34] <MrKeuner> Squawk: Do you think so? I don't realy know, but how come? Will I tell syslog to capture sddout messages, too?
[15:34] <xrestassuredx> dnquark: how is it not playing nice now?
[15:34] <paniang> ,
[15:34] <paniang> ,
[15:34] <Pici> paniang: stop
[15:35] <ForzaPalermo> Squawk,
[15:35] <Squawk> MrKeuner, dont tell syslog to capture stdout. I just thought acpid might already be logging, but syslog is not picking it up
[15:35] <ForzaPalermo> putty and wincp can run simultaneousl
[15:35] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo,dont see why not
[15:35] <ForzaPalermo> do i need putty running to have winscp running>
[15:35] <MrKeuner> Squawk: can you see a possible resolution?
[15:35] <Freon> nope
[15:35] <Squawk> ForzaPalermo, never used winscp, but I doubht it
[15:35] <Lilacor> ForzaPalermo: no
[15:36] <bluewraith> ok, so a little non-computer related, but still somewhat is. anyone know how to keep a 2 year old entertained (aka out of my way) while I set up a new box?
[15:36] <Pici> ForzaPalermo: I'm not sure what this has to do with Ubuntu.
[15:36] <ForzaPalermo> Lilacor, so i need both running
[15:36] <Squawk> MrKeuner, lemme check my conf, sec
[15:36] <ForzaPalermo> pici, i am tring to work from my windows machine, innto linux
[15:36] <ForzaPalermo> like i am doing right now
[15:36] <Lilacor> ForzaPalermo: for winscp, you likely need openssh running
[15:36] <ForzaPalermo> so i want to transfer files between the two
[15:36] <MrKeuner> Squawk: thank you
[15:37] <ForzaPalermo> Lilacor, right, but do i need putty
[15:37] <bazhang> bluewraith: tuxpaint ;]
[15:37] <Lilacor> ForzaPalermo: I mean the daemon
[15:37] <spmccann> bluewraith, ubuntu is easy, kids are a bigger challnage :)
[15:37] <Lilacor> ForzaPalermo: PuTTY is only a client
[15:37] <Lilacor> ForzaPalermo: so no.
[15:37] <Lilacor> ForzaPalermo: PuTTY has no daemon capabilities
[15:38] <Lilacor> ForzaPalermo: your sshd will handle the scp connections
[15:38] <bluewraith> I was thinking more along the lines of apt-get ducttape, but i dont think his mom would like that too well when shes gets back from work. :)

[15:39] <wizard__> hi, anyone get java working?
[15:39] <hollystyles> Maimster : it's the afternoon for some.
[15:40] <hollystyles> Fine though, thanx for asking.
[15:40] <Maimster> hollystyles: Oh yeah, you got me there.
[15:40] <Maimster> hollystyles: Why can't we all just be on the same page eh?
[15:40] <Squawk> MrKeuner, I have very little in my config and it automaticaly logs to /var/log/acpid. In it we have "OPTIONS="-s /var/run/acpid.socket", and MODULES="all""
[15:40] <hollystyles> Then the world would be flat
[15:40] <wizard__> lol
[15:40] <Maimster> hollystyles: lol
[15:41] <PsynoKhi0> got a compy here that won't connect to the internet, though the connection works (using it right now on another comp with the same NIC), the chipset is a RTL 8139, set as 10baseT-HD as it should
[15:41] <MrKeuner> Squawk: yes, my conf was formerly like that, too now "OPTIONS="-d -s /var/run/acpid.socket"
[15:41] <Lilacor> wizard__: under x64? my java is still busted
[15:41] <MrKeuner> Squawk: I also tried adding VERBOSE="yes"
[15:41] <Squawk> MrKeuner, hmm. Try restarting acpid and then restarting acpid?
[15:42] <Squawk> MrKeuner, and then restarting syslog sorry
[15:42] <wizard__> do the have java for 64 bit yet?
[15:42] <MrKeuner> Squawk: testing...
[15:42] <Squawk> MrKeuner, as for the logging to stdout, no idea really
[15:42] <MrKeuner> Squawk: man acpid says that, this is a feature
[15:42] <Maimster> hollystyles: Are you using 7.10 desktop? Wondering how your browser speed is doing?
[15:42] <wizard__> i stick to 32 bit till they do
[15:42] <Squawk> MrKeuner, is there an option in the man page to log to file?
[15:42] <dda> I noticed that CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor never shows 100% since some time. Even if CPU load is 100%, CPU frequencyis not used fully, like it was before. How to check what happened?
[15:42] <MrKeuner> Squawk: -l, but that does not work either
[15:43] <hollystyles> maimster: its fine, what unit of measure are you proposing?
[15:43] <KEB1> how to convert a .wmv into .flv?
[15:43] <mtl514> Hi, can someone help me out? since an update, Im unable to Burn a DVD-R w/ Ubuntu.
[15:43] <hendrixski> I installed Ubuntu JeOS in a virtual machine but it doesn't power on, it just seems to hang in that initial Ubuntu screen with the little progress bar underneath it,  but it never progresses :-/

[15:44] <hunteke> question about upstart: the last change I see on the wiki is Dec, 2006.  Has the dev moved on to other things/what's become of the project?
[15:44] <hendrixski> anybody else have this kind of a problem in a virtual machine?
[15:44] <Squawk> mtl514, do you have a sata dvd drive? if so, have you just updated cdrecord to a version ending in _alpha? Doing that on gentoo killed my drive, reverting back to the previous version was the only fix
[15:44] <KEB1> squawk: ok, remember that i can convert it online...
[15:45] <wizard__> kewl i just got java working
[15:45] <mtl514> squak: not to sound like a clown, but how do I do this?

[15:46] <Squawk> mtl514, as it happens I have never downgraded a package in ubuntu, so I am not sure. Put it out to the rest of the channel, or "man apt-get"

[15:47] <ryan_mandelbaum> what is ##linux

[15:47] <Squawk> mtl514, can you run "cdrecord --version" and see what version you have?
[15:47] <hunteke> lol, thanks Pici.  I suppose I am impatient today.  Thanks for the friendly reminder.
[15:47] <mtl514> how do I do that
