[01:10] <IdleOne> erUSUL: coNP is there anyway to force the removal/purge of the package?

[01:13] <unop> IdleOne,  you'll need to get that kernel module installed .. the one in the error message

[01:14] <arphetic> pitty you cant send the info to a certain user :<
[01:14] <unop> IdleOne,  can i ask why you are manually installing here? what's wrong with the repositories and apt-get/aptitude?
[01:14] <IdleOne> unop: virtualbox isnt in the repos
[01:14] <mandrill> svish: though your probably better off asking about the intricacies of IRC in an IRC help channel.
[01:14] <erUSUL> arphetic: you can not??
[01:14] <christof-kr> how do i remove the weather calendars from evolution? this is useless and clutters my contact categories
[01:14] <erUSUL> !ubotu > arphetic
[01:14] <christof-kr> i already disabled the plugin, but the entries in the contact categories don't go away

[01:15] <IdleOne> !virtualbox > unop
[01:15] <IdleOne> unop: from there
[01:15] <Svish> mandrill: thats true.. but I didnt know that an irc channel existed :p well.. of course it does.. but im not a regular irc user, and the only channels I know about is this one and the one about gaim :P
[01:15] <unop> DjBrix,  use this command - sudo aptitude install -f

[01:16] <IdleOne> 10x = ten x = thanks
[01:16] <arphetic> no, mohtady, you joined in as a retard, I dont feel like helping you
[01:16] <erUSUL> mohtady: if you have question ask the channel (one at a time ;))
[01:16] <arphetic> Lol okey IdleOne xD
[01:17] <arphetic> Do not ask to ask, just ask ;)
[01:17] <IdleOne> arphetic: to many years on irc larning how not to type correctly I guess lol
[01:17] <arphetic> Ye, Im active on IRC quite some time now as well, but I didnt know that1 ;)
[01:17] <mohtady> how to play rm

[01:18] <arphetic> erUSUL, or anyone else, you have a solution to my problem as well? :P
[01:18] <unop> IdleOne,  do you have an existing virtual box installed there?
[01:19] <erUSUL> arphetic: which is?
[01:19] <arphetic> hold on scrolling up again:p
[01:19] <arphetic> Hiya, I'm running Ubuntu (with gnome) and I got this error on the right of my scream. It says Details and Hide. Though when I press Hide, it doesnt respons/go away, I just cant get the msg away... What can I do?
[01:19] <mandrill> svish: no worries, having a look at the channel list I can't see an IRC channel. which is odd. though If you ask around someone should be able to point you in the right direction.
[01:19] <arphetic> that one :)
[01:19] <adriansU> salve, c' qualche italiano che puo' dedicarmi qualche secondo che sono un novizio di linux?

[01:19] <mandrill> !IRC|mandrill
[01:19] <chris_> arphetic: what is the error?
[01:19] <IdleOne> unop: first attemtp at installing virtualboc
[01:19] <IdleOne> x
[01:20] <arphetic> The error is Disk read error blablabla some file, no such file or directory
[01:20] <arphetic> actually a quite random error, but the point is, I cant get it away
[01:20] <mohtady> everything is opend with Quanta ? why? every page I tryed to open
[01:20] <unop> IdleOne,  well its failing because a kernel module required by virtual box is not available -- and the webpage doesnt list any prerequisites
[01:20] <frogzoo> arphetic: check /var/log/messages for scsi timeouts
[01:21] <mohtady> everything is opend with Quanta ? why? every page I tryed to open
[01:21] <IdleOne> unop: LjL told me yesterday to install linux-headers-generic but when I try I get an error about virtualbox
[01:21] <unop> IdleOne, ok, lets see those errors then
[01:21] <erUSUL> arphetic: as frogzoo points out you will have to check log files to see the root of the error...
[01:21] <IdleOne> gimme a sec
[01:22] <mohtady> bye
[01:22] <arphetic> erUSUL, frogzoo hold on, checking the logfile
[01:22] <arphetic> Feb 12 09:36:57 localhost -- MARK --
[01:22] <erUSUL> unop: as i told IdleOne, a catch-22 situation caused by a bad builded deb package :(
[01:22] <arphetic> I think this is the one
[01:23] <IdleOne> unop: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5394/
[01:23] <unop> erUSUL,  I'm not sure i follow you
[01:23] <unop> erUSUL,  come again
[01:23] <erUSUL> arphetic: and you do not know what app if any is causing the error or which files it reports missing
[01:24] <IdleOne> erUSUL: is saying Im stuck in a jam and hopes I dont need to reinstall ubuntu :/
[01:24] <arphetic> its missing a .pdf file
[01:24] <arphetic> well, I think I moved it on opening
[01:24] <arphetic> The programm opened, but I closed it, I cant press details btw
[01:24] <OrTigaS> hi just wondering why my partition drive shows "_png" supposed to be "hdb"
[01:25] <frogzoo> !enter | arphetic
[01:25] <ubotu> arphetic: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:25] <arphetic> Yeah sorry, automatism ;)
[01:25] <unop> IdleOne,  well, it definitely looks to me like virtualbox is registered as installed but definitely failed -- what does this return - dpkg -l | grep -i virtual
[01:26] <erUSUL> unop: he can not install virtualbox beacause he can not build the module, he can not build the module because he does not have linux-headers and bulid-essential he can not install those because he can not uninstall virtualbox which is blocking apt he can not uninstall virtualbox becouse he can not install it properly goto beginning
[01:26] <OrTigaS> hi just wondering why my partition drive shows "_png" supposed to be "hdb" on desktop
[01:26] <IdleOne> unop: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5395/
[01:27] <markud> ok jestem
[01:27] <markud> gnome mam
[01:27] <markud> na awaryjnym teraz
[01:27] <unop> erUSUL, right ok, i get you now
[01:27] <IdleOne> erUSUL: I have build-essential
[01:28] <unop> IdleOne,  well, virtualbox has a botched install as you can see there --- try this - sudo aptitude purge virtualbox
[01:28] <Nanoer> hi
[01:28] <Bieleke> problem fixed with the build of elementtree
[01:28] <erUSUL> IdleOne: yes but you do not have linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[01:28] <arphetic> You guys dont know what I can do about it either?
[01:29] <Eons> hi, i'd like to monitor firefox http request
[01:29] <IdleOne> unop: virtualbox error again
[01:29] <Bieleke> when you do an install "python setup.py install" elementtree is automaticly installed for you.
[01:29] <Eons> how can i do that? i was told to use ettercap, but it seems to me an overkill
[01:29] <unop> IdleOne,  ok, run this command, and if it fails, show me the output of both -- sudo dpkg --purge virtualbox
[01:29] <joe_schmo> guys, I wasn't prompted to enter a root password when I installed ubuntu ? ... is that possible ?
[01:30] <unop> joe_schmo,  ubuntu doesnt use the root account (usually)
[01:30] <Eons> joe_schmo: you don't need root account
[01:30] <Eons> you have to use sudo
[01:30] <Eons> uhm
[01:30] <Eons> !sudo
[01:30] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:30] <IdleOne> unop: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5396/
[01:30] <chris_> joe_schmo: if you want to create a root user password, just # sudo passwd
[01:30] <Bieleke> that's not what he asks :-)
[01:31] <erUSUL> Eons: well a sniffer is the natural choice... maybe you can set up a proxy that echoes the requests...
[01:31] <arphetic> Eons, you could use a FireFox plugin for that one
[01:31] <arnducky> chris that can &#@ with gksudo (Gnome and other GTK dependant stoff) and ksudo
[01:31] <joe_schmo> Eons: lol
[01:31] <chris_> joe_schmo: an yes, thats perfectly normal for the install, since it sets your user up as a sudo user during instal
[01:32] <arphetic> joe_schmo:  use the password you entered for your first user (I think)
[01:32] <arnducky> I recommend learning how sudoers works and carefully editing it if you're going to use a w00t password in Ubuntu
[01:32] <padnix> anybody know how the resume function in wget works?
[01:32] <erUSUL> padnix: you add a -c switch
[01:32] <arphetic> !wget
[01:32] <ubotu> wget: retrieves files from the web. In component main, is standard. Version 1.10.2-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 226 kB, installed size 1952 kB
[01:32] <Eons> arphetic: uhm, an extension migth work - or maybe i'll just switch to links =P
[01:32] <arnducky> !jigdo
[01:32] <ubotu> jigdo: GTK+ download manager (beta version). In component universe, is extra. Version 0.7.3-1 (edgy), package size 187 kB, installed size 440 kB
[01:33] <frogzoo> padnix: from timestamps, & the http headers
[01:33] <padnix> erUSUL; and then if my download fails, and i need to start over?
[01:33] <nutellol> but yesterday wget did't resume anything, only start from zero :(
[01:33] <padnix> erUSUL: same story, same file, same dir?
[01:33] <arphetic> links is ok too, but firefox is more practical I think
[01:33] <arnducky> BS  ubotu is wrong (or at least misleading) there!
[01:33] <erUSUL> padnix: that's when you use the -c switch
[01:33] <unop> IdleOne,  bahh, you cant have gotten into a worse circular-dependency problem -- I think you need to manually remove all the files in this package -- does this return anything -- dpkg -L virtualbox
[01:33] <padnix> erUSUL: muchos grazias
[01:33] <erUSUL> padnix: wget -c url (in the same dir)
[01:33] <arphetic> how can I change to desktop 2 3 or 4 using keyboard?
[01:33] <padnix> :-) thanx man
[01:33] <frogzoo> padnix: if the server doesn't support http 1.1, resume won't work
[01:34] <dammitman> how can obtain missing libraries?
[01:34] <OrTigaS> hi just wondering why my partition drive shows "_png" supposed to be "hdb5" on my desktop?
[01:34] <erUSUL> padnix: in spanish it's 'muchas gracias' (my native tongue)
[01:34] <IdleOne> unop: very long list of dir/files
[01:34] <nutellol> ok frogzoo ,but yesterday wget -c url add the entire file to the previus piesce
[01:34] <unop> arphetic,  ctrl+alt+<arrow_keys> .. i think you mean workspaces not desktops, right?
[01:34] <arphetic> dammitman: via apt-get (or synoptek/adapt)
[01:34] <nutellol> *piece
[01:34] <erUSUL> OrTigaS: it is a fat32 drive? maybe it labelled
[01:34] <joe_schmo> I need to resync the system clock on start up. Which start up file should I put my statement in ?
[01:34] <joe_schmo> echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq
[01:35] <arphetic> Thanks, and yes I ment workspaces ;)
[01:35] <nutellol> and build a monster iso :(
[01:35] <dammitman> apt get? is that a terminal command
[01:35] <erUSUL> joe_schmo: /etc/init.d/rc.local
[01:35] <joe_schmo> k thanks
[01:35] <albacker> whats the latest ubuntu ?
[01:35] <erUSUL> joe_schmo: or it was /etc/rc.local  ??
[01:35] <IdleOne> albacker: 6.10
[01:35] <rinman> anyone: I have a fresh install and need a tool (GUI prefered) to set up my firewall, got any suggestions? the suggestions made in the "Firewall Configuration" part of the docs are programms that are not installed and that I can't find in aptiude...
[01:35] <chris_> arnducky: maybe he's not using Gnome or even KDE for that matter, I don't use any of that X crap on my Linux servers
[01:35] <erUSUL> albacker: 6.10 edgy
[01:36] <unop> IdleOne,   ok,  sudo sh -c "dpkg -L virtualbox | xargs rm -rf"
[01:36] <erUSUL> ubotu tell rinman about firewall | rinman see priv msg from ubotu
[01:36] <albacker> IdleOne, erUSUL what about festy or smth ?
[01:36] <OrTigaS> erUSUL:  yea its fat32
[01:36] <OrTigaS> but before its shows hdb5
[01:36] <erUSUL> albacker: feisty is not stable yet
[01:36] <unop> IdleOne,  be right back

[01:43] <Yodude> hey i couldn't get any equalizer to work with ubuntu
[01:43] <Yodude> does anybody know any good sound equalizer?
[01:44] <arnducky> Where can I find checksums for the new DVD ISOs?
[01:44] <unop> Yodude,  i should imagine it's down to the individual sound application to control it's own equalizers
[01:44] <arphetic> Yodude: for a mediaplayer?
[01:44] <arnducky> the last one I burnt had 125 errors when I booted the verification app
[01:44] <OrTigaS> chris_:  i did not
[01:45] <Yodude> yes
[01:45] <Yodude> for banshee
[01:45] <Yodude> it doesn't have a built in equalizer and i need one for my sound system
[01:45] <OrTigaS> how to fix that error drive name?
[01:45] <Yodude> there isn't?
[01:46] <arphetic> But, what does Ubuntu have to do with that? I think you need a banshee plugin, or an other player (XMMS for example)
[01:46] <chris_> arnducky: http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/MD5SUMS
[01:46] <unop> IdleOne,  you about?
[01:46] <arnducky> chris that's not a secure site though
[01:47] <arnducky> and I need checksums for Edgy not Dapper/LTS
[01:47] <tj239> is there an app that allows you to set for instance, number of colors  for the screensaver ?
[01:47] <CrummyGummy> Grrr, upgrading to edgy just borked my server. All of my custom scripts that start with #!/bin/sh stopped working.
[01:47] <unop> arnducky,  well, if the md5sum of your ISO matches the one from the site, you can be guaranteed it is legitimate
[01:47] <arnducky> do you know of an SSL site that has Edgy DVD checksums?
[01:47] <Yodude> i'm thinking of just running iTunes itself with Wine
[01:47] <chris_> arnducky: http://ftp.ucsb.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/ubuntu/edgy/MD5SUMS.gpg
[01:48] <Yodude> there is no media player on ANY platform that can compare to it
[01:48] <unop> arnducky,  SSL is only a secure transport -- an illegitimate site could use SSL, and that does not mean the info you get is legitimate
[01:48] <Lunar_Lamp> Yodude, I genuinely prefer amarok - if for no other reason than it has a "stop" button!
[01:49] <marinosi> hello..i want to know if there is any ppp frontend for gnome like kppp for kde.I just installed ubuntu..
[01:49] <chris_> arnducky: why the hell would you need a secure site for a md5 file?
[01:49] <padnix> my local sportsclub just asked me to install ubuntu on 6 of their desktops.. for web-use, such as surfing email and watching pR0n latenite... whats your guys opinion? should I?
[01:51] <phatrabbit> im glad this channel is here u guys are great
[01:51] <tj239> is there an app that allows you to set for instance, number of squares for the Cube Storm screensaver ?
[01:51] <padnix> I'll take that as a no
[01:51] <phatrabbit> thanks for the help
[01:51] <arnducky> well, SSL also provides non-repudiation and a .crl checking facility through the referee CA, so unless it's  a self-signed cert any malware can be definitely traced back to the source.  This leads me to believe server admins -- who don't want the  hassles involved, will not allow just any Joe student to upload malware or substitutionary checksums for malware wherever it may be distributed from.
[01:51] <chris_> OrTigaS: Is this actually creating some kind of issue for you?
[01:51] <marinosi> hello..i want to know if there is any ppp frontend for gnome like kppp for kde.I just installed ubuntu..
[01:52] <Hobbsee> Anti-Tedd: there you go
[01:52] <Anti-Tedd> Horray for Hobbsee!
[01:52] <tj239> is there an app that allows you to set for instance, the photo directory for the F Spot screensaver ?
[01:52] <Anti-Tedd> Now I won't take your kidney to sell on the black market.
[01:52] <Hobbsee> Anti-Tedd: good.  you couldnt anyway
[01:52] <arnducky> chris_: this is also the position of the ubuntu.com on the matter
[01:52] <Anti-Tedd> Somebody beat me to it?
[01:52] <chris_> arnducky: that makes no sense whatso-ever.. maybe you should unplug from the internet if your so paranoid
[01:53] <OrTigaS> "_PNG"  <---this is what it shows on my other partition that supposed to be "hdb5"
[01:53] <OrTigaS> its a FAT32
[01:53] <unop> arnducky,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto
[01:53] <OrTigaS> do i need to reformat the partition drive?
[01:53] <OrTigaS> to correct that error?
[01:54] <tj239> is there an app that allows you to set for instance, the background from pink to midnight blue for the Fuzzy Flakes screensaver ?
[01:54] <chris_> OrTigaS: I couldnt say without knowing more about the problem
[01:54] <OrTigaS> chris_:  it just happen when i open my PC
[01:55] <OrTigaS> i dont know why its happen like that
[01:55] <chris_> OrTigaS: so, what exactly is this drive thats got the wrong name, more info on what the problem is here is actually needed
[01:55] <OrTigaS> the only thing i did is transfer some movie files
[01:56] <Arjuna> I'm having problems getting the torrent for edubuntu live dvd
[01:56] <OrTigaS> just wondering why my partition drive shows "_PNG" supposed to be "hdb5"
[01:56] <Arjuna> the tracker keeps dropping me
[01:56] <chris_> Arjuna: why not just use the normal download then
[01:57] <Arjuna> anbody know if this is a temporary problem with the tracker, or should I' quit and go somewhere else for a copy?
[01:57] <unop> arnducky,  i know what you are saying about SSL and the issue about the source of software .. but you're interested in GPG here not SSL, the way gpg works, if you can verify that the key belongs to the right party, you shouldnt mind where you got the key from
[01:57] <Arjuna> normal download... html "save to disk" you mean?
[01:58] <arnducky> chris_ please don't get personal -- your ignorance is showing.  I just had corrupted ISO's from two different sites so, just to avoid corrupt software I want appropriate checksums.  If you don't agree keep it to yourself because what I said is exactly  what the Official Ubuntu documentation recomends -- getting a checksum from a clean source.   Or have you forgotten that there a great many people out there who (for one reason or anot
[01:59] <Arjuna> Alright, I was kinda hoping I simply had connected to a tracker that was dying, and someone would tell me the good track to connect to.
[01:59] <Arjuna> Oh, well 2 days wasted.
[01:59] <arnducky> unop: keyserver?
[02:00] <chris_> arnducky: your asking me to not get personal, then you call me ignorant in the next breath..?
[02:00] <fredl> wow, big words here :)
[02:00] <unop> arnducky, gpg handles that automatically -- i think it's one of the mit.edu/pgp.net ones
[02:00] <arnducky> unop I thought the gpg keys came with the DVD or CD and since everything I have is downloaded (and failing MD5 checksum comparisons) I don't know what to do.
[02:01] <michaelpo> !libdvd
[02:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libdvd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:01] <Arjuna> [sigh]  2 days wasted
[02:01] <hdibani> hi everybody, i am running Feisty on my laptop, yesterday i have updated my x11 and now it crashes on me whenever i start something with 3d. the xorg.log file does not contain any errors and i did not see any core files. does anybody know how  where else i should be looking?
[02:01] <unop> arnducky,  yea, a pgp signature and the person's/party's public key is provided with the CD, you then verify that the PGP signature belongs to the person who claims to have signed it using his public key -- the link i gave you has the procedure
[02:01] <arnducky> unop, what's the key field so I can query the keyserver?    I *am* getting corrupt software -- maybe it's just transmission errors, but it still is a problem that needs to be solved.
[02:02] <erUSUL> hdibani: ask in #ubuntu+1 for feisty problems, thanks
[02:02] <hdibani> erUSUL: thanks
[02:02] <Tedd_> Can somebody tell me why, while upgrading from 6.06 to 6.10 my speed fluxuates so much?
[02:02] <arnducky> unop, are all packages on an Ubuntu CD individually signed with the official Ubuntu key?
[02:02] <erUSUL> Tedd_: download speed?
[02:03] <Tedd_> It'll go from 75k/s to 5746/s to 22.5k/s to 303k/s.
[02:03] <unop> arnducky,  yes
[02:03] <Tedd_> erUSUL, yep
[02:03] <pbureau> michaelpo, try libdvdcss
[02:03] <tomtas> Can anyone give me some pointers upon choosing a laptop ?
[02:03] <Tedd_> Like right now it's on "2 Days 9 Hours" and it'll go to "32 Minutes" and then "3 Hours" and so on
[02:03] <Tedd_> It's on a wireless laptop if that could be the issues
[02:03] <unop> arnducky,  well, i dunno if they all signed using the same key -- but whoever has signed packages in the CD definitely belongs to ubuntu, you can verify that too
[02:03] <frogzoo> Tedd_: cos you're sharing server hdd b/w with everyone else
[02:04] <ahanix0258793146> can anyone tell me why "deb" command does not work in ubuntu........i mean it is debian based, no?
[02:04] <chris_> arnducky: if your frustrated I understand, but I offered help to you an responded about it not being a secure site, if your worried the MD5 file will not have the correct checksum by some malicious act, then a secure site will not change that fact at all.. what you want is more like gpg.. I suggest you do some homework before calling people ignorant.
[02:04] <arnducky> unop I scrolled back and found the link, but thanks for poting it twice.  I'm reading it now -- TYVM
[02:04] <frogzoo> Tedd_: well try a wired connection & see
[02:04] <michaelpo> !libdvdcss
[02:04] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[02:04] <pbureau> Tedd, try using wired connection if it doesnt fluctuate then its the wireless connection, otherwize its a busy server with "busy" moments
[02:04] <Tedd_> frogzoo, I did this on another computer last week and it maintained at a constant stream of 300k/s.
[02:04] <michaelpo> !libdvdcss2
[02:04] <Tedd_> I don't think it's that- it wouldn't cause it to flux this much.
[02:04] <arnducky> chris_ do you think you can bring yourself to just *drop it*
[02:04] <frogzoo> Tedd_: are you using infra or adhoc wireless setup?
[02:04] <KenSentMe> Does anyone know how i can connect a second harddisk to Windows XP in VMWare. I created a vmdk with qemu-img, and referred to it in the vmx file, but Windows doesn't see the disk.
[02:05] <Tedd_> frogzoo, not sure
[02:05] <michaelpo> pbureau: thanks
[02:05] <chris_> arnducky: PS, if you are having trouble with a download, perhaps you should check into a torrent.. torrent will check files as they download an redownload anything that gets corrupted
[02:05] <tomtas> Anybody good with laptop compability towards Ubuntu? I have 2 laptops but can't decide which one to purshase.
[02:05] <frogzoo> Tedd_: maybe check that, using adhoc will cause b/w issues

[02:06] <Tedd_> I'll search the ubuntuwiki then...
[02:06] <arnducky> chris I already got the solution I needed from unop and the ISO are already here -- I just need to verify them since THE LAST TWO ISOs THAT I GOT FAILED checksum comparison.  NOW can we JUST DROP IT kthnxplsbye.
[02:07] <chris_> arnducky: wow, your so juvenile! I'm shocked
[02:07] <chris_> arnducky: you come here asking for help an insult those that try to help yo
[02:07] <frogzoo> lol
[02:08] <chris_> sorry folks... scroll up if you dont mind an tell me honestly if I was so out of line about this whole thing..
[02:08] <janey> wow, issues
[02:09] <janey> frankly i liked your torrent suggestion
[02:09] <chris_> I felt I was offering him some help when he proceeded with the name calling at me.. maybe I am wrong ..
[02:10] <chris_> he must be a Microsoft employee
[02:10] <pbureau> chris_, be the adult and put him on ignore and forget the whole thing man
[02:10] <tomtas> Guess it was easy deciding which laptop to choose, the 2nd one was not even in the chart :P
[02:11] <chris_> pbureau: he left the channel.. or I would have shut up already

[02:13] <tomtas> Intel Core 2 Duo T5600 compared to  Intel Core Duo T2400 ?
[02:13] <Kaso> So the last batch of updates that i downloaded(i think) that used the 2.5.17-11 kernel seems to have destroyed my ubuntu, it dies part-way through boot with these errors all i can spot: http://www.pastey.net/6470 Any ideas?
[02:14] <pbureau> Remember Dual core will only be officially supported on the Feisty version of Ubuntu, something to keep in mind'
[02:14] <fredl> Hmm, should a firewall script enable IP forwarding....  I'm having some trouble. I installed Ubuntu 6.10, edgy, about 2 weeks ago, and it has worked fine up until now.
[02:16] <ron_o> they also are really hard on the system resources.
[02:16] <Kit33> But recently I have gotten errors trying to install updates, and using the Package Manager.
[02:17] <fredl> hmm I just apt-get'ed gdesklets but don't see a thing :P
[02:17] <frogzoo> pbureau: it's broken for everyone or just some hardware?
[02:17] <pbureau> tomtas, still doesnt mean the functionality of the dual core is working completly as prescribed.
[02:17] <Anti-Tedd> Kit33, such as?
[02:17] <Kit33> When I want to use it, It says "E: Malformed line 6 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)" and "E: The list of sources could not be read.".
[02:17] <Yodude> hey can somebody help me with my nvidida driver?
[02:17] <ron_o> fredl: use synsptic or aptitude. The binary might not be called exactly that.
[02:18] <Anti-Tedd> Kit33: Pastebin your Sources.List please
[02:18] <fredl> aren't desklets those tiny programs in the panel that use HUGE amounts of memory?
[02:18] <pbureau> frogzoo,  I don't know, but I got  lucky because I got zero problems, but then again I dont have an ATI/Nvidia card and I rtun a basic gnome, no themes and other crap I dont need, I just use this reliable old PIII for  email/web browsing and web editing. :)
[02:19] <ron_o> not in the panel but on your desktop and they use more processing power than memory. Lots of processing power.
[02:19] <oggy> isnt there a program that will let you take a movie of your desktop
[02:19] <oggy> dmdesktop?

[02:20] <entotre> Could anyone tell me how to change the screen resolution to 1280x820 ?

[02:38] <Yodude> wine: cannot find '/media/hda1/Program'
[02:39] <Kaso> use ' ' around the directory if the folders have spaces in the name
[02:39] <arphetic> Btw, with -r it only downloads file in same map or submap?
[02:40] <arphetic> so like, if i'd do wget -r www.google.nl/search?q=evol
[02:40] <arphetic> id get that page nd stuff, but not all sites listed?
[02:40] <arphetic> and sites on that sites?
[02:41] <unop> arphetic,  wget downloads files from a location -- it does not look in those files and do any sort of magic :)
[02:41] <Zta> !info unrar-free
[02:41] <ubotu> unrar-free: Unarchiver for .rar files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.0.1+cvs20060609-1 (edgy), package size 17 kB, installed size 80 kB
[02:41] <unop> arphetic,  you will need to parse the html file you recieve there to retrieve the individual links
[02:41] <soundray> arphetic: yes, it downloads everything on that page, follows the links, downloads those pages, follows the links on them, and so on
[02:41] <soundray> unop: man wget
[02:41] <Zta> Package unrar-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[02:41] <Zta> uhm.. ?
[02:42] <Yodude> hey
[02:42] <arphetic> I want only the .pdf files nd stuff the file links to tbh :P
[02:42] <Yodude> to run something with WINe dfo i point it the installed executable on windows or just the .exe install file?
[02:43] <IceLink> Aloha
[02:43] <unop> soundray,  thats going to follow too many irrelevant links  .. all the links to cache, translation, stats, etc.. not worthwhile with wget
[02:43] <soundray> unop: I know, that's why I've been warning arphetic
[02:43] <frogzoo> Yodude: you first have to run the install .exe, then once installed, you run the app .exe
[02:44] <arphetic> wget, the dangerous command xD
[02:45] <fiXXXerMet> Is there another channel that would be better suited for answering my raid question?
[02:45] <soundray> arphetic: it's not dangerous, unless you consider filling up your filesystem with useless stuff dangerous
[02:45] <HymnToLife> fiXXXerMet, maybe ##linux
[02:47] <arphetic> Oh well, I canceled the dloading, site sux anyway, I only got some index files xD
[02:47] <arphetic> Is it possible to get all .pdf files a page links to?
[02:47] <arphetic> using wget ofc x
[02:48] <arphetic> and txt and chm files btw :)
[02:48] <Yodude> can someone help me with my graphics driver?
[02:48] <HymnToLife> !helpme | Yodude
[02:48] <ubotu> Yodude: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:48] <Yodude> hymntolife: i downloaded the nvidia-glx driver from synaptic
[02:49] <oggy> im glad i found this channel all the other ubuntu channels are just
[02:49] <oggy> horrid
[02:49] <Yodude> than i rebooted, then i did the required command "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable:
[02:49] <oggy> :(
[02:49] <Prinny> I know what you mean, oggy.
[02:49] <Prinny> Some channels are just... bad.
[02:49] <Yodude> but i got an error: Error: unable to load nvidia kernel driver! Be sure to have installed the nvidia driver for your running kernel.
[02:49] <HymnToLife> Yodude, which version of ubuntu are you running ?
[02:49] <Yodude> edgy
[02:49] <tuskernini> oggy, i use only this one
[02:50] <oggy> I just happened on this channel because of a default install of xchat
[02:50] <Prinny> Well, welcome.
[02:50] <oggy> thanks
[02:50] <Yodude> hymntolife: so? what do i do?
[02:51] <HymnToLife> Yodude, did you also install the restricted-modules for your kernel ?
[02:51] <ConstyXIV> are the problems with the kernel updates fixed yet?
[02:51] <soundray> arphetic: wget -O - http://some.page.com/index.html | tr '"' "\n" | grep \.pdf | wget -i -  # or something like that
[02:51] <Yodude> well i marked nvidia-glx for installation with synatpci
[02:51] <arphetic> :o
[02:51] <Yodude> synaptic automatically downloaded the needed files
[02:51] <HymnToLife> Yodude, run uname -r in a temrinal
[02:51] <HymnToLife> what do you get ?
[02:52] <Yodude> .2.6.17-11-generic
[02:52] <erUSUL> arphetic: soundray: iirc wget has a -A option to dl specific filetypes 'man wget'
[02:52] <HymnToLife> yock, sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic
[02:52] <HymnToLife> Yodude*
[02:52] <soundray> erUSUL: thanks, I overlooked that
[02:53] <Yodude> but shoudln't APT have downloaded it for me? it's a dependency no?
[02:53] <HymnToLife> no
[02:53] <HymnToLife> it downloaded the 386 one
[02:53] <HymnToLife> which is not the one you need
[02:53] <arphetic> erUSUL: Ill check it out thanks!
[02:53] <phatrabbit> hello sorry to bother u again may i get the resolution link again i am not having much luck

[02:54] <ConstyXIV> phatrabbit: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:54] <phatrabbit> i done that
[02:54] <Yodude> ok the last line i got was Setting up linux-restricted-modules-generic (<IP_ADDRESS>) ...
[02:54] <Yodude> and i got a new line for a new command
[02:54] <phatrabbit> and it found my card and i went through the whole setup of my keyboard ect

[02:54] <Yodude> is it over?
[02:54] <HymnToLife> Yodude, yes
[02:54] <soundray> phatrabbit: did you get to the question about resolutions?
[02:55] <Yodude> ?ok now i do what? sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[02:55] <phatrabbit> nope
[02:55] <HymnToLife> now you can run nvidia-xconfig
[02:55] <HymnToLife> and restart your x
[02:55] <HymnToLife> nope
[02:55] <HymnToLife> nvidia-glx-config is for Dapper-
[02:55] <Yodude> than what do i do now? just reboot?
[02:55] <phatrabbit> soundray, it asked me to choose my graphics card and keyboard layouts and abunch of other stuff
[02:55] <HymnToLife> run     sudo nvidia-xconfig
[02:56] <HymnToLife> then save your work if any and restart X (Ctrl+Alt+BkSpace)
[02:56] <oxygen> hi
[02:56] <phatrabbit> i am going to try it again
[02:56] <soundray> phatrabbit: there is a part where it lets you specify the resolutions that you are going to use
[02:56] <oxygen> my vim does not have color on ubuntu ..
[02:56] <Yodude> ok
[02:56] <oxygen> how can use color vim on ubuntu ?
[02:56] <Yodude> thnkx a bunch man
[02:56] <HymnToLife> oxygen, google for "vim syntax highlighting"
[02:56] <Yodude> but i'm gonna keep a note on where the X file backup is
[02:56] <Yodude> i might need it
[02:56] <unop> oxygen,  errm with this vim command maybe -- set syntax=on
[02:56] <phatrabbit> i will try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:57] <erUSUL> oxygen: echo 'syntax on' >> .vimrc
[02:57] <oggy> I just used istanbul to record my deskto but , its in ogg and I want to upload it to youtube

[03:01] <soundray> phatrabbit: have you fixed your resolution now?
[03:01] <unop> arphetic, are you using google to search for extentions?
[03:01] <unop> arphetic, whats this "-A" ? in relation to wget?
[03:01] <fotoflo> shit
[03:02] <PriceChild> !ohmy | fotoflo
[03:02] <ubotu> fotoflo: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:02] <fotoflo> I just had a little blackout and now ubuntu wont boot up in anyting but recovery mode!
[03:02] <phatrabbit> soundray, i am gonna try it now
[03:02] <phatrabbit> i got a little side tracked with kororaa
[03:02] <arphetic> For example, I would like to get all the .txt, .pdf, .chm, .zip, .tgz files that are linked to from http://www.comms.scitech.susx.ac.uk/fft/
[03:02] <Anti-Tedd> Is there just one server for updating from 6.06 to 6.10
[03:02] <unop> arphetic,  did you see this command?? -- wget -U"firefox" "http://www.google.com/search?num=100&complete=1&hl=en&safe=off&q=filetype%3Apdf+ubuntu&btnG=Search"; mv search\?* index.html; perl -lne 'print for /href="(http:..[^\"] *?pdf)"/ig' index.html
[03:02] <Anti-Tedd> Because if there is more than one, is there a possibility I can change to another?
[03:03] <fotoflo> it boots in regular mode - getting to the point where there should be a login screen, and then it blacks out
[03:03] <fredl> anybody happen to know how I can prevent default routes from being added when I bring up a DHCP interface?
[03:03] <fotoflo> can anyone help - this is a crisis
[03:03] <arphetic> Ur doing it hard way, there is a -A switch to specify that, but dont know how to use it ;)
[03:03] <pbureau> foto you use nvidia or ati drivers for video ?
[03:03] <fotoflo> dont think so, no
[03:03] <soundray> arphetic: it's on the manpage
[03:03] <arphetic>        -A acclist --accept acclist
[03:03] <arphetic>        -R rejlist --reject rejlist
[03:03] <arphetic>            Specify comma-separated lists of file name suffixes or patterns to

[03:04] <arphetic> Thats on my manlist
[03:04] <erUSUL> arphetic: man wget   'wget -r url -A.pdf'
[03:04] <boy_d> hi. im new. what topic now?
[03:04] <soundray> arphetic: do not paste stuff here
[03:04] <oxygen> unop, yes
[03:04] <arphetic> erUSUL: but how di I specify more then 1 file?
[03:04] <LjL> !paste > arphetic
[03:04] <arphetic> Ye soz ;)
[03:04] <soundray> arphetic: what part of "comma separated list" don't you understand?
[03:04] <oxygen> help me pls
[03:05] <arphetic> wget -r -A .txt,.pdf,.chm,.zip,.tgz http://www.comms.scitech.susx.ac.uk/fft/
[03:05] <arphetic> Something like that will do>?
[03:05] <fredl> or does anybody know a better channel to ask Linux network related questions?
[03:06] <unop> fredl,  was that meant to patronize?
[03:06] <unop> fredl,  whats the matter?
[03:06] <fredl> unop, nope not at all.
[03:06] <fotoflo> can anyone help? this is BAD!
[03:06] <fredl> unop, I have two different external interfaces and one internal interface on my server.
[03:06] <arphetic> wget -r -A .txt,.pdf,.chm,.zip,.tgz http://www.comms.scitech.susx.ac.uk/fft/ <- starts downloading html pages as well :S
[03:06] <tuskernini> has anyone done LinuxCBT courses?
[03:06] <unop> fredl,  this is in relation to networking right?
[03:07] <rapid> !anyone
[03:07] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:07] <CrakeHunter> hello, I'm running version 6.10 right now but have some crashing problems now and then ; now i think about changing to 6.06.1 - is thee latter generally more stable? (and is there a list of program-versions in 6.10 compared to 6.06 somewhere floating around?)
[03:07] <fredl> unop, both external interfaces are DHCP, except one always returns me the same IP address so it's 'nearly' static.
[03:07] <fredl> unop, yeah when talking about interfaces it's usually about networking right?
[03:07] <erUSUL> !lts
[03:07] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[03:07] <tuskernini> rapid, so you have done one of the courses?
[03:07] <Lpriest> Hi everyone, can somebody give me a hand?
[03:08] <rapid> tuskernini: no
[03:08] <arphetic> of well it dloads
[03:08] <unop> fredl,  well, an interface doesnt not necessarily pertain to networking, it generally is, but i had to make sure
[03:08] <tuskernini> Lpriest, just ask the question
[03:08] <chrismhampson> what's the quickest (and easiest) way to upgrade to a later version of ubuntu?
[03:08] <erUSUL> CrakeHunter: 6.06.x is lts and edgy is the stable version
[03:08] <fredl> unop, so I configure both interfaces as dhcp in /etc/network/interfaces, which works alright, except *both* DHCP servers give me a default gateway.
[03:08] <erUSUL> ubotu tell chrismhampson about upgrade | chrismhampson see priv msg from ubotu
[03:08] <soundray> !upgrade | chrismhampson
[03:08] <ubotu> chrismhampson: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:08] <LjL> erUSUL: ripoff
[03:08] <blackspec> is there an absolute linux newbie chatroom?
[03:08] <fredl> unop, which causes some confusing situations depending on which interface is brought up first.
[03:09] <Lpriest> I have Raid on my pc and i want to install ubuntu, on the documentatoin is says i have to disable somthing to make this work? I dont want to damange my system
[03:09] <CrakeHunter> erusul, yes, but as i said i have some crushing problems on edgy; is 6.06.1 generally more stable or is it useless changing!?
[03:09] <Lpriest> i have a spare IDE drive i can install on, because of this do i still have to disable raid ?
[03:09] <erUSUL> LjL: shameless ;P
[03:09] <unop> fredl,  ok, thats normal .. you'll need to lower the metric of the route you wish to prioritize
[03:09] <boy_d> hoi.......... please help me
[03:09] <unop> fredl,  route -n should list two default routes -- you need to modify the one you prefer to be used
[03:09] <fotoflo> my ubuntu box is DEAD! or rather, it boots in recovery mode but not in regular mode... how do i fix it?
[03:09] <tuskernini> Lpriest, not familiar with raid, but hang in there.. there must be someone her who is
[03:09] <fredl> unop, hmm, I actually want to loadbalance the traffic over the two external interfaces but one step at a time I think....
[03:09] <[BTF] Chm0d> fredl im not a linux expert but shouldn't there be a way to bind one of your nics to be the one issuing ips?
[03:09] <erUSUL> CrakeHunter: no in my experince also note that downgrading is ot supported so you would have to reinstall
[03:10] <soundray> blackspec: ask here, if it's too newbie someone will redirect you
[03:10] <LjL> blackspec: "newbies" are quite welcome here. just ask your questions in as precise a manner as you can so that people will know whether they can help with the problem or not
[03:10] <oggy> mencoder needs vcdimager
[03:10] <oggy> not working
[03:10] <oggy> its asking for it
[03:10] <unop> fredl, do both interfaces connect up to the internet?
[03:10] <soundray> oggy: why don't you install it then?
[03:10] <fredl> [BTF] Chm0d, I think there is, I'll move to that later though. Right now I want dhcp3-client to simply ignore the default gw from the 'dynamic' provider.

[03:11] <blackspec> just installed ubuntu 6.10, downloaded nvidia's linux drivers for my graphics card, ran the cmd provided on nvidia site, "sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9746-pkg2.run", got error

[03:11] <[BTF] Chm0d> fredl if you want to just have it ignore the gateway why not just put in ip manually?  (Static)
[03:11] <oggy> k done
[03:11] <fredl> [BTF] Chm0d, well because it's not static :)

[03:12] <briancann> hey guys when I play any streaming radio station it will knock off about 1min 30 secs to 2 mins any ideas whats causing this
[03:12] <unop> fredl, you can't ignore the gateway recieved by DHCP on one of the interfaces, but you can tweak the metrics to get one to be of lower priority
[03:12] <fredl> [BTF] Chm0d, oh I see what you mean. Yeah that's an idea and I tried that. It works at first but somehow my ISP knows that I'm not using DHCP then and disconnects after that.
[03:13] <fotoflo> I just had a little blackout (i dont think there was a power spike...) and now ubuntu wont boot up in anyting but recovery mode! it looks like its going to boot in regular mode, but when it gets to the point that a login screen should pop up, the termanal goes black
[03:13] <fotoflo> Can anyone help?
[03:14] <soundray> fotoflo: did you do any upgrades recently?
[03:14] <[BTF] Chm0d> hmm understand fredl what exactly are you trying to accomplish and why again?
[03:14] <fotoflo> soundray: no
[03:14] <erUSUL> fotoflo: check the xorg log /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:14] <chrismhampson> Shipit seems to be rejecting my CD requests even though I have successfully given out c. 70 CDs to my students etc. Do they not want me to share Ubuntu anymore????
[03:14] <unop> fotoflo,  do you get to the text terminal?
[03:15] <fredl> [BTF] Chm0d, I'm trying to get the two external links to loabalance outgoing traffic.
[03:15] <soundray> fotoflo: in recovery mode, see if anything is logged in /var/log/syslog or the one that erUSUL said
[03:15] <fotoflo> erUSUL: the last two lines say: fatal server error: lockup
[03:15] <frogzoo> chrismhampson: which distro are you requesting?
[03:15] <chrismhampson> 6.06
[03:15] <unop> chrismhampson,  there's probably a limit to how many CDs you can order -- they're printed and given out for free too, so you expect that too :)
[03:15] <frogzoo> chrismhampson: well as edgy is current...
[03:16] <fredl> unop, well I checked the dhclient.conf manpage and from reading that I thought it might be possible to discard the 'routers' by specifying the 'request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, host-name;
[03:16] <erUSUL> fotoflo: and the rest going backwards ?? the cause of the fatal error?? lines beginning with (EE)
[03:16] <chrismhampson> frogzoo, I know but 6.06 is LTS and I'm trying my best to let everyone know about ubuntu
[03:16] <oggy> k mencoder
[03:16] <fredl> unop, the funny thing is, that seems to work, **only** with one ISP. dhclient still sets the route for the other ISP.
[03:16] <oggy> is installed how do I use it though
[03:17] <oggy> mencoder is part of other programs
[03:17] <fotoflo> erUSUL: went up a few pages: doesnt appear to be anything beginnning with EE
[03:17] <chrismhampson> frogzoo, if i'm trying to tempt windows users to move to linux then I shouldn't expect them to work out how to download and burn an ISO!
[03:17] <frogzoo> chrismhampson: I have as much idea as you, but maybe they've run out of the dapper they printed and edgy's all they've got - plus it's more recent so 'funkier'
[03:17] <chrismhampson> frogzoo, true
[03:18] <soundray> oggy: please don't ask to be spoonfed. There is a man page as well as docs in /usr/share/doc/mplayer/
[03:18] <unop> fredl,  the right way to do this would be to tweak the routes
[03:18] <frogzoo> chrismhampson: gnome on edgy is about 2x faster than dapper, so really, if you're trying to sell people linux, edgy's a better option
[03:18] <fotoflo> erUSUL: grepeed for EEL nothing
[03:18] <erUSUL> fotoflo: well there is little info in "fatal error" i'm afraid i can not help you further... maybe reconfiguring X?? try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[03:19] <unop> fredl,  well, every machine needs atleast one default route and its probably why one interface tries to maintain that
[03:19] <savvas> how can i extract a .exe packed with zlib?
[03:19] <fredl> unop, huh? don't 'need' a default route...
[03:19] <briancann> trying to fix radio streaming it turns of after about 1min 30s - 2mins after its started I have a 1.1mb connection and no other apps taking up bandwidth?
[03:19] <erUSUL> fotoflo:  'grep \(EE\) /var/log/Xorg.0.log'
[03:20] <oggy> is there any other program I can use to record my desktop besides istanbul
[03:20] <unop> erUSUL,  why not grep '(EE)' ... ?? :)
[03:20] <esaym> I am running ubuntu server, How do I find out wether it is the 6.06 or 6.10 version?
[03:20] <trace_E_G> hi
[03:21] <boy_d> hai...
[03:21] <soundray> esaym: cat /etc/lsb-release
[03:21] <[BTF] Chm0d> fredl: take a look at this i haven't read it all but this may help you not sure http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=257322
[03:21] <fredl> unop, when I bring up only the one interface, I also stay without a default route.
[03:21] <fotoflo> erUSUL: i did, no results
[03:21] <unop> fredl, if the kernel doesnt maintain a default route -- you get nowhere outside your LAN .. the defaulr route is where all unknown traffic is sent to
[03:21] <esaym> thanks you soundray
[03:22] <fotoflo> erUSUL: just tried reconfiguring X, well see what happens
[03:22] <erUSUL> unop: echo 'grep \(EE\) /var/log/Xorg.0.log' | sed -e 's/\\/\'/' ;P
[03:22] <fotoflo> booting
[03:22] <erUSUL> fotoflo: :(
[03:22] <fredl> unop, I appreciate your effort but I'm not a newbie, sorry if I raised that impression.
[03:22] <fotoflo> erUSUL: AND WE're IN !
[03:22] <fotoflo> erUSUL: Thanks!
[03:23] <erUSUL> fotoflo: no problem
[03:23] <fredl> unop, thing is, I want to add the routes after the interfaces are up, basically following the recipee at http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html
[03:23] <fredl> [BTF] Chm0d, thanks for that link, interesting read.
[03:23] <fotoflo> looks like everythings hunky dory now
[03:23] <erUSUL> fotoflo: it seems that your xorg.conf got corrupted somehow
[03:23] <fotoflo> sweet!
[03:23] <fotoflo> yup
[03:23] <briancann> when playing radio steams it turns of after about 1min 30s - 2mins after it stops playing after about 1min 30s - 2mins after its startedits started
[03:23] <fotoflo> FF is able to restore the last session thoguh :-)
[03:24] <zabel> mr_daniel, rennt :)
[03:24] <fotoflo> erUSUL: sure does
[03:24] <soundray> briancann: maybe your connection is too slow
[03:25] <mr_daniel> zabel: klasse, was hast du gemacht, war eben weg gewessen

[03:25] <unop> erUSUL,  sed fails there for some reason :p
[03:25] <soundray> briancann: I mean the connection to the radio station
[03:25] <zabel> mr_daniel envy ;)
[03:25] <briancann> soundray: works perfect in windows
[03:25] <briancann> ?
[03:25] <erUSUL> unop: well that line was totally untested XD
[03:26] <unop> erUSUL,  :)  echo 'grep "EE" /var/log/Xorg.0.log' | sed -e "s@'@@"
[03:26] <unska_> ive been trying to fix this issue for many hours now but i cant find any information about it. everything worked fine until i executed the beryl install script, now when i hit ctrl+alt+backspace i get some major graphical glitches and sometimes the screen turns black and crashes
[03:27] <unska_> sometimes it boots ok
[03:27] <heartbt> hey there everyone.  got a moment for some??
[03:27] <erUSUL> !anyone
[03:27] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:27] <unop> fredl,  no cynicism intended?? none taken -- what i am suggesting is what is being suugested here http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html .. only difference is they use a different approach to tweaking routes
[03:28] <esaym> ok so to get a backported package I just download the deb file and install it and run apt-get -f update?
[03:28] <heartbt> yeah, rioutil device not found.  run as root same.
[03:28] <fredl> unop, that was a private message you're referring to :)
[03:29] <unop> fredl, well, did you ask if you could pm? :)
[03:29] <gOLdenHaWK3D> hi all
[03:29] <fredl> unop, nope but I thought I would, to clarify. Some people are sensitive to perceived cynicism.
[03:29] <heartbt> syslog shows the connection
[03:31] <ubuntu> irc.mindforge.org
[03:31] <briancann> can anyone help me fix a streaming radio problem, it just stops playing about a min & 1/2 after its started?.  My connection is fine I have played the same stations in windows and they have worked perfectly without stopping
[03:31] <esaym> quick question: In ubuntu server when I install software with apt-get, why does it sometimes ask that the cd be inserted?  And how do I disable this?
[03:31] <fredl> unop, okay, so since http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html is where I'm trying to get to, some issues remain.
[03:31] <soundray> esaym: edit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the references to cdroms
[03:32] <heartbt> so, how can I get this device to connect to rioutil?
[03:32] <fredl> unop, since I don't want either default route to be simply added to the standard routing table, I want to add them to an alternative routing table.
[03:32] <esaym> soundray: when I remove it do I need to add anything?
[03:32] <unop> fredl,  well, it's simple really -- once the DHCP (if you are in this setup, why DHCP??) leases are attained  .. parse the routing table and use the "ip route" to tweak the routing table
[03:32] <fredl> unop, so I figured discarding them at first when I bring up the DHCP interfaces would be a reasonable approach
[03:32] <unska_> ive been trying to fix this issue for many hours now but i cant find any information about it. everything worked fine until i executed the beryl install script, now when i hit ctrl+alt+backspace i get some major graphical glitches and sometimes the screen turns black and crashes
[03:33] <unska_> sometimes it boots ok
[03:33] <hylje> hey, i have an existing linux system here. how much tweaking is required to preserve /home but replace the other stuff as a whole?
[03:33] <unop> fredl,  afaik, there is only one routing table
[03:33] <soundray> esaym: no. Correction: just add a '#' to the beginning of the line to disable it
[03:33] <erUSUL> hylje: a backup of the home dir?
[03:33] <esaym> ok thank you
[03:33] <fredl> unop, uhm no there can be multiple routing tables.
[03:33] <fredl> :)
[03:34] <fredl> from http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html:  One creates two additional routing tables, say T1 and T2.
[03:34] <heartbt> ugh, hal sees the device.
[03:34] <soundray> unska_: ask in #ubuntu-effects
[03:35] <heartbt> can I get a point in a direction?
[03:35] <hylje> erUSUL: yeah well.. that's a problem as /home is 40GB and i dont have spare HDDs
[03:35] <unop> fredl, ok, maybe? how do you create a new one? and how do you query it? i'd like to try it out
[03:35] <soundray> heartbt: you may have to find out what the real device name is (possibly /dev/usb/something) and configure that in /etc/rioutil/
[03:35] <phatrabbit> soundray, i fixed it !
[03:35] <padnix> how do i make ubuntu show my norwegian letters? I cant even burn a song with K3b containing norwegian letters, that sucks.. anyone?
[03:35] <soundray> phatrabbit: well done, and thanks for letting me know
[03:35] <phatrabbit> i ended up installing the wrong vid card and scrwed xserver up
[03:35] <fredl> unop, well you create an alternative routing table with the examples on that page, for example: ip route add $P1_NET dev $IF1 src $IP1 table T1
[03:35] <erUSUL> hylje: it is in its own partition ?
[03:35] <phatrabbit> i checked forums and set up xserver again
[03:36] <unop> fredl,  afaik, there can only be one FIB per working partition .. i just dont see how multiple routing tables can coexist
[03:36] <hylje> erUSUL: i was too lame to split the disk originally :\
[03:36] <phatrabbit> thanks for ur help mate!
[03:36] <arphetic> Great, another error message :S
[03:37] <unop> fredl,  that must be a iproute specific thing -- i'm sure at the kernel level its just one table
[03:37] <erUSUL> hylje: :( then the backup is the only solution I afraid
[03:37] <elias_> sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Feb 12 16:09:22 2007, what should i do?
[03:37] <padnix> seriously, why cant I show norwegian letters, and where is the settigns to correct this? I need to backup my mp3's and k3b wont do it because the songs contains "Illegal letters"
[03:37] <padnix> somebody please?
[03:37] <Yodude> hymntolife: are you there?
[03:37] <Yodude> i just need your help with one small thing
[03:37] <arphetic> Great, another error message appeared... I press ' hide ' or ' close ' , but it doesnt respond, it lights up but when I click it, it doesnt do anything.
[03:38] <fredl> unop, nope, multiple routing table are used depending on the conditions.
[03:38] <erUSUL> padnix: System>Admin>language support??
[03:38] <soundray> elias_: try 'sudo -k'
[03:38] <fredl> unop, ip route is pretty weird :P
[03:38] <elias_> thanks
[03:38] <elias_> still the same
[03:38] <zzz_> Is it possible to configure an Ubuntu server to act like a network hub?
[03:39] <heartbt> soundray, does not seem to appear in /dev  there is no /dev/usb
[03:39] <padnix> seriously, why cant I show norwegian letters, and where is the settigns to correct this? I need to backup my mp3's and k3b wont do it because the songs contains "Illegal letters"
[03:39] <briancann> can anyone help me fix a streaming radio problem, it just stops playing about a min & 1/2 after its started?.  My connection is fine I have played the same stations in windows and they have worked perfectly without stopping
[03:39] <soundray> elias_: try 'sudo -K'
[03:39] <elias_> did that too, same error
[03:39] <elias_> there
[03:39] <fredl> unop, although this discussion is interesting, at this point I'm still really trying to figure out how to just ignore the default route that one ISP seems to force on me whenever dhclient tries to up the interface.
[03:39] <pihus> how can I add hdd-s to "computer"?
[03:39] <elias_> thanks :)
[03:39] <arphetic> pihus: mount them?
[03:40] <pihus> coverted my ntfs to fat32 but it won't show up in "computer" anymore althogh I have mounted them
[03:40] <Yodude> hey i have just installed the nvidia-glx package
[03:40] <pihus> + I also edited the fstab
[03:40] <Yodude> but now my screen is stuck on 60Hz
[03:40] <Yodude> 85Hz i mean
[03:40] <arphetic> Why did you convert it to fat32 :S no need for that IMO
[03:40] <heartbt> soundray, not even finding an /etc/rioutil
[03:40] <Yodude> and i can't change that from the screen resolution dialogue
[03:40] <erUSUL> padnix: are the files in a ntfs/fat partition?? if so you need the apropiate charset/nls/whatever mount options see 'man mount'
[03:40] <unop> fredl, man, you havent even got the slightest gist so far have you .. i dont think you can do that .. but what you surely can do is modify the default routes (as that page also shows) so that one route is preferable over another
[03:40] <Yodude> is there any other way i can reset it to 60Hz?
[03:40] <arphetic> pihus: does linux sees the hdds?
[03:41] <pihus> yes, I can access them manually via /media/hda2
[03:41] <fredl> unop, I can actually keep eth2 down (the naughty one) and then up eth0 (the other external interface). When I don't specify 'routers' in the /etc/dhcp2/dhclient.conf I don't get a default gw.
[03:41] <soundray> elias_: the tough approach is to reboot in recovery mode and rm -rf /var/run/sudo/username
[03:41] <pihus> but I want it to show up in "computer" dialog
[03:41] <fredl> unop, it's not very nice to imply I am clueless.
[03:41] <Yodude> help please
[03:41] <kaje> I am going to give ubuntu a shot on my laptop. Can someone point me to a technical comparison of the desktop and server editions? Or just stating them here would be nice. =)
[03:41] <arphetic> what "computer"  thingie?
[03:42] <pihus> places - computer
[03:42] <erUSUL> kaje: main diff one has gui the other does not
[03:42] <pihus> or just places sidebar in nautilus
[03:42] <kaje> I read the marketing hype on the main page, but that doesn't really explain much...
[03:42] <arphetic> Thats just editing menu right?
[03:42] <kaje> oh, thanks for making that decision easy =)
[03:42] <unop> fredl, i think you need to ask the folks in here - #cisco or #networking about this
[03:42] <fredl> unop, okay, I'll go to #networking, thanks for trying to help.
[03:43] <unska_> my ubuntu makes weird sound every once in a while
[03:43] <kaje> Is the desktop version "Built on the solid foundation of Debian" just like the server?
[03:43] <unska_> i cant describe it but i have no idea where it comes from
[03:44] <unska_> its a rhytm
[03:44] <erUSUL> kaje: yes
[03:44] <antiNeo> ARG! im angry
[03:44] <antiNeo> apt broke nvidia-glx-legacy... anyone else having this problem?
[03:44] <boni__> mesg n
[03:45] <antiNeo> according to this bug report, I need to install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12-10-686... but apt is telling me that there's no such package
[03:45] <kaje> last question, I promise... Any differences in package selection between the two version? Aside from X and its dependents...
[03:45] <pihus> http://pihus.tuum.net/computer.png this is the computer dialog I was talkin bout. I'd like to see my other hard drive here too, but after I converted it to fa32 it's not there anymore
[03:45] <pihus> and yes I have mounted it already
[03:45] <soundray> antiNeo: are you on edgy?
[03:46] <antiNeo> soundray: yeah
[03:46] <pbureau> pihus, dod you mkfs -t vfat that drive ?
[03:46] <jamietiplady> can anyone give me some help on configuring edubuntu for use with a bt home hub router?
[03:46] <soundray> antiNeo: try installing linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic
[03:46] <frogzoo> antiNeo: 2.6.12 is way old, is that hoary or what?
[03:46] <antiNeo> frogzoo: that's what it says in the bug report :-/
[03:47] <soundray> antiNeo: try installing linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic
[03:47] <antiNeo> i'm installing 'generic' thoguh... it's working
[03:47] <quaal> hello
[03:47] <pbureau> jamietiplady,  well ubuntu doesnt do anything to a router, do you mean your having issues connecting to it with a wifi card perhaps ?
[03:47] <antiNeo> ty :-)
[03:47] <pihus>  mkfs?
[03:47] <sashalap[kde] > hi, all
[03:47] <quaal> could someone give me an example of their azureus install directory? i made the mistake of making it the same as my /home/username/.azureus directory where all the settings are
[03:47] <quaal> and i'd like to seperate the two
[03:47] <jamietiplady> thanks for answering pbureau, no i'm connecting through an ethernet cable to the router
[03:47] <pbureau> pihus, well your partioned the drive right and made it a fat32, did you format that drive ?
[03:48] <jamietiplady> i need advice on seting the ip addresses and DNS server etc
[03:48] <pbureau> jamietiplady, so whats the problem ?
[03:48] <pihus> no
[03:48] <pbureau> pihus, explain in detail what you did then...
[03:48] <pihus> I'm ashamed to say but I converted it in Winxp+partiton magic
[03:48] <soundray> jamietiplady: try using DHCP
[03:49] <pihus> then I booted to linux. edited fstab (changed ntfs to vfat)
[03:49] <pbureau> pihus, so is that partition formatted now ?
[03:49] <unop> jamietiplady,  doesn't the router give you these via DHCP?
[03:49] <pihus> it works fine if i just go to the directory I mounted it to
[03:49] <pihus> just converted, not formatted
[03:50] <jamietiplady> unop? how would i find that out? i'm not very good at these things, can you spell it out to me
[03:50] <pbureau> pihus, so when you do ls you get a directory listing ?
[03:50] <pihus> yes
[03:50] <pbureau> pihus, alright then whats the issue ?
[03:50] <pihus> I can access the partition fine
[03:51] <pihus> I want the partition to be shown in http://pihus.tuum.net/computer.png this window too
[03:51] <pbureau> jamietiplady, are you using gnome ?
[03:51] <jamietiplady> unop? how would i find that out? i'm not very good at these things, can you spell it out to me
[03:51] <unop> jamietiplady,  ok well, each router is different, so i cant tell you where to look .. but if you reach the router (usually by navigating to it's addres , something like http://<IP_ADDRESS>) you can look there to see if it is a DHCP server
[03:52] <jamietiplady> the ip address of the router is <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:52] <unop> jamietiplady,  if it doesnt mention DHCP .. it probably mentions client/LAN ip addressing .. i.e. first and last IP address, subnet mask, etc .. if it does then it's probably already serving DHCP
[03:52] <pbureau> pihus, if the partition you mounted seperatly does it show on your desktop ? where di you mount it to ? ie /dev/hdax /media/????
[03:53] <jamietiplady> when i browse to the ip address through that using firefox it times out and when i try to telnet to it it times out
[03:53] <pihus> it won't show up in my desktop also. I mouned /dev/hda2 to /media/hda2
[03:53] <pihus> while /dev/hda1 is mounted to /media/hda1 and it is shown in desktop and in computer dialog.
[03:53] <unop> jamietiplady, errm, does your wired connection have an IP address in the same network i.e. 192.168.1.x ?
[03:53] <pbureau> pihus, then its under your system icon under /media/hda2
[03:54] <pihus> arrrgh
[03:54] <pihus> nevermind :D
[03:54] <pbureau> lol

[03:54] <pihus> u just don't understand what I'm trying to do ;p
[03:54] <pbureau> pihus,  no I do .. :)
[03:55] <briancann> can anyone help me fix a streaming radio problem, it just stops playing about a min & 1/2 after its started?.  My connection is fine I have played the same stations in windows and they have worked perfectly without stopping
[03:55] <jamietiplady> unop, no i dont think so .. i'm using edubuntu how can set that up?
[03:55] <pbureau> pihus, you want /media/hda2 to show as a seperate "drive icon"
[03:55] <Anti-Tedd> Is there a way to close the Upgrade process while it's running? I've decided to do a fresh install instead
[03:55] <Yodude> hey after i installed google earth it didn't add a menu entry
[03:55] <Yodude> how can i add one myself
[03:55] <Yodude> ?
[03:55] <pihus> pbureau, yes
[03:56] <unop> jamietiplady,  errm, not really sure with edubuntu -- but try this command at a terminal -- network-admin
[03:56] <elias_> does anyone know how i to set the resolution to 1280x800 on a laptop with 6.10 ?
[03:56] <soundray> unop: how about sudo?
[03:57] <soundray> elias_: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[03:57] <unop> soundray,  network-admin invokes gksudo if you havent already done so in the last howmanyever minutes
[03:57] <jamietiplady> unop, ok that works, i've got enternet interface device eth0, static ip address: <IP_ADDRESS>, subnet mask is <IP_ADDRESS> and gateway is <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:58] <soundray> unop: only if you call it via the menus!
[03:58] <unop> jamietiplady,  can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[03:58] <pihus> pbureau, so you know how to get /media/hda2 to be shown as seperate drive icon?
[03:59] <elias_> soundray, you have any idea on how i can find the bus-id for the card?
[03:59] <unop> soundray,  errm, i've just tried it out -- i didnt need to sudo it .. in anycase, we arent modifying anythig here, just retrieving info
[03:59] <pbureau> pihus, nope, and I assumed you used : mount -t vfat /dev/hda2 /media/hda2  right ?
[03:59] <pbureau> pihus, did you put it in fstab ?
[03:59] <jamietiplady> unop, no cant see the router at all, i've just seen that static IP address can be changed to DHCP in the network-admin menu
[03:59] <pihus> yes I put it in fstab
[03:59] <pihus> I did put it*
[04:00] <phatrabbit> damm kororaa sucks
[04:00] <FringeJacket> how do I connect to wireless when wireless assistant isn't working?
[04:00] <unop> jamietiplady, yea, you should try setting it to DHCP to see if the interface picls up an IP address
[04:00] <soundray> elias_: accept the default for everything you are unsure about
[04:00] <jamietiplady> unop, thanks now i can ping the router ... you are a legend!
[04:00] <unop> jamietiplady,  can you get on the net tho?
[04:00] <quaal> how do i set read/write permissions to a directory?
[04:00] <unop> jamietiplady,  yw :)
[04:01] <jamietiplady> i will be able to work it out from here!
[04:01] <soundray> elias_: but to answer your question, you get the bus IDs for all your devices with lspci
[04:01] <quaal> chmod +777 ?
[04:01] <jamietiplady> xx
[04:01] <cntb> PriceChild:  o/
[04:01] <unop> quaal,  chmod 777 .. should be enough
[04:01] <PriceChild> cntb, ?
[04:01] <quaal> unop, thanks
[04:01] <unop> quaal,  what you are thinking of is -- chmod +rwx ...
[04:01] <quaal> ah, right
[04:01] <pbureau> pihus, on your desktop, could you not configure a "link icon" to it ? ie left mouse click on desktop and select create folder ?
[04:01] <cntb> PM ?
[04:02] <cntb> I  sent youan e-mail
[04:02] <PriceChild> cntb, I don't do support in pm... but if its a random question on somethign else then ok :)
[04:02] <quaal> unop, does that automatically do it recursively ?

[04:05] <krantix> it does not work anymore...
[04:05] <unop> Beer-it,  I'm not certain .. but i am quite sure that it is php5 (99% sure) :)
[04:05] <pbureau> yes but technically speaking hda2 is part of hda1 (not a physical drive) so its /media/hda2 on main physical hdd
[04:05] <soundray> krantix: be specific about what doesn't work
[04:06] <Beer-it> unop ty, then i will download and install it, because i need php5 for the page I have coded ;>, doesnt work on 4.x :P
[04:06] <soundray> pbureau: what??
[04:06] <pbureau> pihus,  I dotn know of a way to make /dev/hda2 as an icon on your desktop sorry  mate
[04:06] <krantix> https://<IP_ADDRESS>:8443/login.php3?previous_page=logout
[04:06] <elias_> soundray, i find 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce Go 6200 TurboCache (rev a1). But what should i write in the box?
[04:06] <krantix> ops ...
[04:06] <krantix> wrong paste
[04:06] <pihus> I just booted up and discovered that hda2 ain't mounted automatically.
[04:06] <unop> Beer-it,  in anycase, if php4 is the default, you can always upgrade :)
[04:06] <pihus> mybe fstab is messed up
[04:06] <krantix> E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
[04:06] <krantix> E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/dpkg/status
[04:06] <krantix> E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
[04:06] <soundray> elias_: nothing
[04:06] <lolman> pbureau: you mean /dev/hda2 is part of /dev/hda?
[04:06] <Beer-it> unop yep, later on when i got my connection at home back to the internet i can :>
[04:06] <grimboy> Beer-it, Download and install? You mean apt-get right.
[04:07] <unop> krantix,  you should run this commadn again -- sudo aptitude update
[04:07] <elias_> soundray, it say PCI:1:0:0 now, should it be like that?
[04:07] <Beer-it> grimboy i mean the OS Image from site
[04:07] <soundray> elias_: if that was the default, then yes
[04:07] <Yodude> hey can someone pass this on to the developpoers?
[04:07] <grimboy> Beer-it, I thought you were talking about php5.
[04:07] <Yodude> Put a shadow under the windows like in OS X. It can make ubuntu look much better.
[04:07] <krantix> unop, always the same error as before
[04:07] <pihus> is it just me or ubuntu's fstab look different from others
[04:07] <pihus> e.g suse's
[04:08] <Beer-it> grimboy yes, LAMP package is on the image cd, right? thats what i thougt and wounder if the packages was with php4 or php5
[04:08] <unop> krantix,  what does this command return - ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/status
[04:08] <bard> hey, is there a good grafical interactiv firewall GUI ?
[04:08] <soundray> !firestarter | bard
[04:08] <ubotu> bard: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:09] <krantix> unop, -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 844 2007-02-10 17:07 /var/lib/dpkg/status
[04:09] <grimboy> Beer-it, Doesn't matter, if it's php4 then just "sudo apt-get install php5"
[04:09] <Beer-it> grimboy i know that, but like i said i dont have any internet connection at home right now
[04:09] <grimboy> Oh, missed that.
[04:09] <frogzoo> pihus: the UUID thing is new for linux
[04:10] <pihus> yeah i figured that out ;p
[04:10] <Beer-it> it`s gonna be local server on the intranet for a time until i get my connection back :P
[04:10] <pihus> so new that i don't know what to do with it
[04:10] <Beer-it> so thats why i wounder of the standard in LAMP from image file :>
[04:10] <unop> krantix, run this command - sudo sh -c "mv /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/dpkg/status.bak; sudo apt-get update"
[04:10] <frogzoo> pihus: run 'blkid' - the rest is obvious
[04:11] <Bieleke> hi guys, i created some tasks that should be started on system startup
[04:11] <pihus> thanks mate
[04:11] <kippi> hey
[04:11] <Bieleke> so i created them in /etc/rc2.d
[04:11] <pihus> why is this uuid thingy good?
[04:11] <kippi> where is the dns file for ubuntu? i need to add an external server?
[04:11] <soundray> pihus: because it will still work when you delete or add a partition before the root one.
[04:11] <unop> kippi,  /etc/resolv.conf
[04:12] <frogzoo> pihus: dunno, it's a hassle in some ways, methinks for big file systems you can move them around & it's easier
[04:12] <Bieleke> but when i start KSysv, the tasks are listed in runlevel 2, but they are not in the column "Available Services"
[04:12] <Bieleke> how can i make sure they are also in that list ?
[04:12] <bulmer> any way to test a LPD server services with a printer attached to a windows xp via a telnet or lpr or something on the linux side? the xp can be ping-ed
[04:12] <unop> Bieleke,  is that the services-admin utility from the menu?
[04:12] <Bieleke> yep
[04:12] <Agent_bob> how do i get rid of the stupid "computer" icon ?
[04:13] <Bieleke> at least... in Applications - system tools
[04:13] <pihus> ok,let's give it a try
[04:13] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: in confeditor, go into metacity, desktop icon
[04:13] <unop> Bieleke,  ahh yea, it's very partial as to what info you get :) best way is to use the rc.d utilities from the command line
[04:13] <pnm> anyone else having nvidia problems after the latest kernel update in Edgy (2.6.17-11) ?
[04:14] <erUSUL> soundray: afaik it is preparation for the change of ide pata drivers in the feisty kernel . libata based ones will be used and hd will appear as sdxx not as hdxx but uuid is the same on both cases allowing a smooth transition
[04:14] <Bieleke> unop mmm time to use man rc.d i suppose ?
[04:14] <krantix> unop, now i get E: Could not open file /var/lib/dpkg/status - open (2 No such file or directory)
[04:14] <krantix> E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
[04:14] <Agent_bob> frogzoo what "confeditor" ?
[04:14] <unop> Bieleke,  well, there's a collection of utils .. what are you trying to do now?
[04:14] <soundray> pnm: install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic
[04:14] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: system -> config editor
[04:15] <soundray> erUSUL: that's news to me, but my explanation might be considered good enough?
[04:15] <unska_> http://www.nomorepasting.com/paste.php?pasteID=74243 anyone know the solutions for this?
[04:15] <Gartral> how do you force the unmount of a cdrom?
[04:15] <Bieleke> well i created some tasks into the rc2.d dir, but they are not listed in Available services
[04:15] <Bieleke> so i want to list them there too.
[04:15] <Agent_bob> ah system tools > configuration editor
[04:15] <pnm> soundray: thanks
[04:15] <unop> soundray,  frogzoo would you know what krantix's problem would be due to -- looks like his /var/lib/dpkg/status is corrupt (it's backed up to /var/lib/dpkg/status.bak now)
[04:15] <Agent_bob> ok thanks.
[04:16] <Bieleke> Gartral, umount /mnt/cdrom ?
[04:16] <Beer-it> unop i found a sollution to my problem.. i download an extern "AMP" with an all-in-one package so i will be sure of the standards :>
[04:16] <Gartral> it says device busy
[04:16] <Bieleke> not sure if it is mnt on ubuntu
[04:16] <unop> Bieleke,  well, you should not enable services like that 00 you should place your scripts in /etc/init.d and then use the update-rc.d command
[04:16] <pihus> i don't get this thingy :/
[04:16] <Gartral> no, media/dvdrecorder
[04:16] <pbureau> Bieleke, nope its /media
[04:16] <GaiaX11> Gartral: sudo umount /media/cdrom0/ -l
[04:16] <erUSUL> soundray: yes, half true but true anyway ;)
[04:16] <Bieleke> ah okay sorry
[04:16] <Bieleke> long time ago i used linux :-)
[04:16] <Hoag> I'm having trouble getting Counter Strike: Source working in wine. I can't find the solution in any HowTos. I've got it to the stage where it opens the game window, but it promptly closes. I'm trying to install DirectX nine with wine, but I can't figure out how.
[04:17] <unop> Bieleke,  as for getting more services listed in the services-admin util, i dont think there's a way -- as i said, you get all the info you need in a terminal
[04:17] <frogzoo> !appdb | hoag
[04:17] <ubotu> hoag: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[04:17] <pbureau> Bieleke, your right the bsd usually uses /mnt but for ease of use (not techie people) /media makes sence
[04:17] <unska_> http://www.nomorepasting.com/paste.php?pasteID=74243 anyone know the solutions for this?
[04:17] <Gartral> its a dvdrom x.x
[04:17] <Agent_bob> frogzoo nothing resembling that there
[04:17] <wacx-q^cat> Sorry if having words that had difficulty in understood.
[04:17] <wacx-q^cat> Because I could not English
[04:17] <krantix> unop, status seems ok...
[04:17] <Bieleke> pbureau, indeed, it just came up in my mind, from my experience on suse i think
 Agent_bob: in confeditor, go into metacity, <<< non-existant
[04:18] <pbureau> Bieleke, yep suze and slackware use /mnt
[04:18] <unop> krantix,  does this work -- sudo aptitude install apt ?
[04:18] <HymnToLife> unska_, support for beryl in #ubuntu-effects please
[04:18] <Hoag> frogzoo: Cheers
[04:18] <GaiaX11> Gartral: Go in /media and locate the mounting point then
[04:18] <HymnToLife> !beryl
[04:18] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[04:18] <krantix> E: Could not open file /var/lib/dpkg/status - open (2 No such file or directory)
[04:18] <krantix> E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
[04:18] <krantix> unop, same error...
[04:18] <HymnToLife> !away | lolman
[04:18] <ubotu> lolman: Please don't use public away messages or change your nick to 'someone|away'.  We know you're away when you don't respond to messages. Also see !guidelines
[04:18] <krantix> is there a way to restore a basic status file?
[04:18] <pihus> arrgh, I can be such a noob
[04:19] <pbureau> pihus, what you do now ?
[04:19] <Gartral> ok, next question, who knows how to configure wine so direct x is accessable?
[04:19] <unop> krantix,  don't paste in here .. use a !pastebin .. the channel is too busy for that
[04:19] <Agent_bob> frogzoo is there anothre way ?
[04:19] <Bieleke> unop well i've installed xammp for linux and had to create the services by hand
[04:19] <soundray> krantix: 'sudo touch /var/lib/dpkg/status ; sudo apt-get update'
[04:19] <pbureau> !wine
[04:19] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:19] <wacx-q^cat> ada orang indonesia
[04:19] <wacx-q^cat> ada orang indonesia
[04:19] <unop> krantix,  ok, try this -- sudo aptitude -f install apt dpkg
[04:19] <soundray> !id | wacx-q^cat
[04:19] <ubotu> wacx-q^cat: join ke #ubuntu-id untuk membahas ubuntu dalam bahasa Indonesia
[04:19] <pbureau> Bieleke, check that link on winehq.org
[04:19] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: dude, soz, nautilus - desktop - computer_icon_visible
[04:19] <wacx-q^cat> ada orang INDONESIA
[04:19] <HymnToLife> Gartral, you'll certainly be more lucky in #winehq for WINE support
[04:19] <Bieleke> pbureau, what link ?
[04:20] <riotkittie> my TTYs are being flooded with networking mumbojumbo of some sort. anyone know how i might turn this off ?
[04:20] <soundray> krantix: please follow unop or me, but not both ;)
[04:20] <pbureau> Bieleke, check that link http://www.winehq.org/
[04:20] <pihus> pbureau, my fstab was messed up :p
[04:20] <pbureau> pihus, works now ?
[04:20] <frogzoo> riotkittie: syslog.conf probs
[04:20] <Bieleke> pbureau, what for ?
[04:20] <Agent_bob> frogzoo in configuration editor   or in nautilus ?
[04:20] <pihus> it seems that nls=utf8 works only on ntfs
[04:20] <christopherl> any music download site that supports Linux?
 wacx-q^cat: join ke #ubuntu-id untuk membahas ubuntu dalam bahasa Indonesia <[04:20] <wacx-q^cat> terima kasih banget
[04:20] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: conf ed
[04:21] <pbureau> Bieleke, never mind... Ia ma goof that was for Gartral
[04:21] <pihus> well it mounts it correctly via fstab now, but still won't display seperate media icon
[04:21] <pihus> it might need a reboot?
[04:21] <pbureau> Gartral, , check that link http://www.winehq.org/
[04:21] <pihus> althogh i doubt it
[04:21] <riotkittie> frogzoo: i'm not liking the sound of that :P   ah well. i will go take a peek
[04:21] <Bieleke> pbureau, ah okay, cause i thought i missed something :-)
[04:21] <Lynoure> christopherl: Any that do not do drm, at least. I think that means at least Magnatune and Emusic
[04:21] <grimboy> christel, http://www.quoteunquoterecords.com/
[04:21] <bulmer> pihus: you can try going to init level 1 and then back to same level 5.. no need to reboot.
[04:22] <Bieleke> at least the following programs are installed fine by me... xampp for linux and SABnzbd
[04:22] <pihus> ok
[04:22] <unop> bulmer,  but, isnt runlevel2 the default on ubuntu?
[04:22] <Bieleke> unop, yes it is
[04:22] <azeem_> hi, do you support gnewsense users here as well?
[04:22] <Agent_bob> frogzoo i don't see any listing for metacity nor nautilus in the conf ed
[04:22] <bulmer> unop: i think 2-5 level is default, so going to level 1 might make a difference and then back
[04:22] <frogzoo> azeem_: what's gnewsense?
[04:22] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: nautilus is there, under apps
[04:22] <unop> Bieleke,  well, i cant be sure, i've changed things like that around so much, i dont know what the defaults are
[04:23] <azeem_> frogzoo: a Ubuntu-derived distribution which is without the proprietary stuff
[04:23] <Agent_bob> frogzoo not there.
[04:23] <hdibani> Hello, does anybody know how i can roll back an update i have made for some packages using synaptic?
[04:23] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: dude, it's there
[04:23] <elias_> soundray, thanks for the help :D everything is working now
[04:23] <unop> bulmer,  errm, i'm quite certain that there are differences in runlevels 2-5 .. it's better to go to runlevel2 after 1
[04:23] <soundray> elias_: well done
[04:23] <krantix> soundray, it works now!!!!  what was it? just to know for the next time!
[04:23] <krantix> unop, thanks for your help
[04:23] <[BTF] Chm0d> what is the command to uninstall from apt-get?  Is it apt-get --purge remove?
[04:23] <unop> krantix,  what did you have to do?
[04:24] <azeem_> unop: at least Debian doesn't have differences in runlevels 2-5 by default, and I thought Ubuntu didn't either
[04:24] <unop> [BTF] Chm0d,  you could do -- sudo aptitude purge package
[04:24] <krantix> unop, the touch passage rescued my status file...
[04:24] <soundray> krantix: I'm not sure that it does -- let's check: does "cat /var/lib/dpkg/status" return anything?
[04:24] <unop> krantix,  nice :)
[04:24] <pihus> wwworks great :D
[04:24] <slippyr4> hi all. i am considering installing ubuntu on a home server pc, but  i need to load a propriatary raid module into the kernel during installation. does the ubuntu installer support that?
[04:24] <krantix> soundray, i'm back online with apt.... i can install again software and updates....
[04:25] <Bieleke> unop
[04:25] <jgalvez> hi. how do I get the machine's IP address without using ifconfig (without requiring sudo, that is)?
[04:25] <erUSUL> !dm | slippyr4
[04:25] <Bieleke> unop you can use runlevel command to check it
[04:25] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: apps - nautilus - desktop
[04:25] <soundray> krantix: I'm worried about your system...
[04:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:25] <Bieleke> reports N 2 here
[04:25] <azeem_> jgalvez: you can get the IP address from ifconfig without sudo
[04:25] <erUSUL> !fakeraid | slippyr4
[04:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fakeraid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:25] <Agent_bob> frogzoo i'm looking at it.  it's not there.   there is ekiga, evolution gnome-power-manager, gnome-screensaver, gnome-settings, gnome-terminal, panel, and update-notifier.
[04:25] <unop> azeem_,  well, i've seen debian installs where there are plain differences in runlevels .. but what i mean is, if you are changing from runlevel to runlevel instead of rebooting, its better to comeback to the runlevel you were at originally
[04:25] <[BTF] Chm0d> thx unop i think gstreamer is causing my system to crash.  Not positive.  I log in and it just hangs there
[04:25] <jgalvez> azeem_: not on the machine i want to, 'ifconfig' is only available to root
[04:25] <krantix> soundray, why?
[04:25] <unop> Bieleke,  i just cat /etc/inittab :)
[04:26] <azeem_> jgalvez: just run "/sbin/ifconfig"
[04:26] <slippyr4> it's not fakeraid. i need to load a module. can the installer do that? that's all i need to know
[04:26] <soundray> krantix: does "cat /var/lib/dpkg/status" return anything?
[04:26] <azeem_> jgalvez: unless the admin has changed the defaults, of course
[04:26] <krantix> soundray, yes
[04:26] <krantix> soundray, where should i past you the results?
[04:26] <azeem_> unop: I said "by default", of course the local admin can set policy as they like
[04:26] <soundray> krantix: okay, then it has indeed restored your status database
[04:26] <soundray> krantix: nowhere, thanks ;)
[04:26] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: u belong to admin group?
[04:26] <Agent_bob> yep
[04:27] <krantix> soundray, thanks a lot
[04:27] <unop> azeem_,  well, ok then, can you be sure whether the runlevels are the same on someone else's comp? :)
[04:27] <elias_> Now, I would like to get fluxbox. Do I have to download Sources & Subversion or Binaries ?
[04:27] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: cos there should be dozens plural of entries under apps
[04:27] <Bieleke> unop there is no /etc/inittab on ubuntu as far as i know
[04:27] <Agent_bob> frogzoo well there isn't
[04:27] <Bieleke> at least the command does not work for me
[04:27] <azeem_> unop: if they aren't, they should know what they've changed, assuming they are the admin as well
[04:27] <unop> Bieleke,  there is if you use sysvinit instead of upstart
[04:27] <soundray> elias_: I suggest you just do 'sudo apt-get install fluxbox'
[04:28] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: you belong to adm?
[04:28] <Bieleke> unop, ah... again learned something
[04:28] <Agent_bob> frogzoo does it need ran as root just to configure a personal desktop appearance ?
[04:28] <Bieleke> unop, what is the difference between those two anyway ?
[04:28] <elias_> soundray, nice :D
[04:28] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: nope, shouldn't do - it works this end, just don't know why you don't see it
[04:28] <soundray> !upstart | Bieleke
[04:28] <ubotu> Bieleke: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[04:28] <geemy> your all still here
[04:28] <Agent_bob> frogzoo i think i'm in almost every group on this box.
[04:28] <geemy> how weird
[04:29] <geemy> hiyas
[04:29] <wacx-q^cat> id
[04:29] <geemy> again
[04:29] <unop> Bieleke,  sysvinit is what the rest of the linux world uses -- the plain old init .. upstart is ubuntu's "enhancement" of it
[04:29] <soundray> elias_: the wonders of a good package management system ;)
[04:29] <Bieleke> soundray, thnx dude
[04:29] <Bieleke> unop ah ic, did not know that
[04:29] <Agent_bob> root adm tty disk lp dialout fax voice cdrom floppy tape audio dip operator video plugdev staff games users lpadmin scanner admin
[04:29] <Agent_bob> frogzoo ^
[04:29] <geemy> whose avail to help today?
[04:29] <soundray> geemy: that depends on your question, so ask
[04:30] <geemy> anyone using apache on ubuntu?
[04:30] <geemy> the ip <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:30] <unop> Agent_bob,  you a memeber of root? eh?
[04:30] <geemy> tahts need to be changed?
[04:30] <Agent_bob> frogzoo ok. thanks for the effort mate.
[04:30] <geemy> i am having the ip number issue
[04:30] <aalhamad> whats the plugin for system tray for xchat?
[04:30] <geemy> and for the permissions in the apache folder
[04:30] <Agent_bob> unop sometimes
[04:30] <soundray> geemy: only if you want to serve pages for clients other than your own machine
[04:30] <soundray> !apache | geemy
[04:30] <ubotu> geemy: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[04:31] <geemy> hmmm
[04:31] <unop> Agent_bob,  i meant from the list of groups there -- is that your group membership ? or just a list of available groups?
[04:31] <geemy> well i cant switch the config file
[04:31] <geemy> cause i dont have permissions
[04:31] <geemy> and then getting thru the router
[04:31] <geemy> will be last step
[04:31] <geemy> i got it installed
[04:31] <geemy> and running
[04:31] <soundray> !enter | geemy
[04:31] <ubotu> geemy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

[04:32] <soundray> geemy: by "switch", do you mean "edit"?
[04:32] <elias_> soundray, again, thanks :)
[04:32] <modisc> hey folks...  i just ran an updated, first in a couple of weeks... and now my xgl and beryl went clean out the window
[04:32] <geemy> i have already made one
[04:32] <geemy> i copied
[04:32] <geemy> yeah its edited
[04:32] <Agent_bob> unop no it's groups i'm in.   but i figure being in root group is less permiscuous than having sudoers setup as root jr..
[04:32] <pihus> ssh isn't installed by default on edgy?
[04:33] <soundray> pihus: only the client
[04:33] <pihus> well that sucks
[04:33] <soundray> pihus: no, it doesn't

[04:33] <ubotu> geemy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:33] <pihus> it sucks because i'm too lazy to install it myself :p
[04:33] <unop> Agent_bob,  that defeats the point of having the seperation between root and users .. you might as well log on as root all the time -- and sudoers is meant to prompt for your credentials, not roots
[04:33] <geemy> brb
[04:34] <PwcrLinux> gm all :)
[04:34] <geemy> :)
[04:34] <Agent_bob> unop do you know anyway to change the metacity settings without it displaying in configuration editor ?
[04:34] <soundray> pihus: OS's should not install to a default state where they have open ports
[04:34] <peace-keeper> sudo su
[04:34] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: dude, if you've played with sudo, that may explain conf editor not working as expected
[04:34] <DevilLink> heuhehueue
[04:34] <Agent_bob> unop no it doesn't.   being in the root group does not let you run things as root.
[04:34] <DevilLink> good nite
[04:34] <DevilLink> INDONESIA
[04:35] <DevilLink> ada orang indonesia
[04:35] <unop> Agent_bob, errr, sure it does .. why else have a root group?
[04:35] <soundray> pihus: is 'sudo apt-get install ssh' beyond what your laziness will allow you to do?
[04:35] <pihus> guess not
[04:35] <Agent_bob> frogzoo you said that it didn't need root perms to configure your personal desktop ???
[04:35] <Agent_bob> unop ok you have proven your ignorance, enough said.
[04:35] <aalhamad> howz the system tray for xcat?
[04:35] <aalhamad> howz the system tray for xchat?
[04:36] <unop> someone please put some sense into Agent_bob
[04:36] <Anti-Tedd> Okay. How?
[04:36] <pihus> lol
[04:36] <Anti-Tedd> I prefer with a bat
[04:36] <aalhamad> i mean howdo
[04:36] <Anti-Tedd> Can I do it with a bat?
[04:36] <Agent_bob> frogzoo do you have a non-admin account setup ?    if so can that account see metacity in the conf ed ?
[04:36] <soundray> Agent_bob: you're not entitled to diss anyone for trying to help
[04:36] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: well, I see the apps -> nautilus group, you don't - there's no difference between the 2 installs, but you've changed your sudoers...
[04:37] <Agent_bob> soundray didn't diss for trying to help.
[04:37] <deKos> hey
[04:37] <bulmer> its almost Valentines, cant we just get along?  lolz
[04:37] <GaiaX11> Agent_bob: unop is not ignorant I have watched him solving many questions in this channel :)
[04:38] <soundray> unop: that was a bit of a blunder, I must say
[04:38] <freezey> i need some assistance with PostFix... so if anyone has set it up before i can use the help
[04:38] <Agent_bob> GaiaX11 we are all ignorant.  just on different points
[04:38] <unop> soundray,  what was a blunder?
[04:38] <soundray> unop: what you said about the root group
[04:39] <GaiaX11> Agent_bob: I know but did you mean that?
[04:39] <Agent_bob> yes
[04:40] <Agent_bob> if i be examined for my statement GaiaX11, ask soundray to explain it, he sees it clearly.
[04:40] <slavekk> hello
[04:40] <slavekk> help

[04:40] <slavekk> how to make it?
[04:40] <deKos> is there any way to move mouse pointer with the keyboard? my mouse is down and I'm tired of trying various keyboard shurtcuts with no effect :/
[04:40] <SanguineAnomaly> i've just installed windows, but for some reason, its unformatted my swap partition :S
[04:40] <unop> soundray, this is how i see it, and know from first hand experience too .. if you have a user that is member of the root group, his effective GUID is pretty high
[04:40] <elias_> soundray, could you tell me what i should download of these https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=141362&package_id=155388&release_id=445794 ?
[04:41] <SanguineAnomaly> so i not have /dev/sda1 as boot, unallocated space, /dev/sda3 as / and /dev/sda2 as ntfs
[04:41] <slavekk> ????????????????????????????/
[04:41] <soundray> slavekk: you are spamming
[04:41] <SanguineAnomaly> how can I format the unallocated space as my swap?
[04:41] <GaiaX11> Agent_bob: Ok. I don't want to go further with this issue
[04:41] <aalhamad> hows the plugin for system tray xchat... ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------plz help
[04:41] <unop> soundray,  s/GUID/GID/
[04:41] <slavekk> how to close programs taht i CANT close
[04:41] <bulmer> SanguineAnomaly: install windows first then linux..otherwise you come across problems
[04:41] <slavekk> ???????/
[04:41] <aalhamad> howz= what is
[04:41] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: from a user account with no groups you still see the app-> nautilus settings in gconf-editor, so dunno
[04:41] <SanguineAnomaly> bulmer: well, should I just reinstall ubuntu then?
[04:42] <slavekk> like ctr+alt+del in windows??????????????
[04:42] <coNP> SanguineAnomaly: no
[04:42] <bulmer> SanguineAnomaly: you may as well..
[04:42] <coNP> SanguineAnomaly: it is not needed
[04:42] <Deed> Anyone know if there's a MSN client that has tabs for conversations?
[04:42] <SanguineAnomaly> ok, i only installed ubuntu yesterday, so its no loss
[04:42] <coNP> SanguineAnomaly: have you already installed both ?
[04:42] <elias_> Deed, gaim
[04:42] <SanguineAnomaly> coNP, yes, but windows unformatted my swap partition :/
[04:42] <Deed> elias_, hmm? Is there?
[04:42] <slavekk> heloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
[04:42] <GaiaX11> Deed: gaim, kopete, etc...
[04:42] <Agent_bob> frogzoo hmmm ok.  thanks for testing that.   i'll have to examine this system a little closer.    it's a pretty fresh install of 6.6
[04:43] <Deed> GaiaX11, does kopete have tabs?! OMG!
[04:43] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: 6.6 might be different, 6.10 this end
[04:43] <soundray> slavekk: STOP SPAMMING
[04:43] <GaiaX11> Deed: For me it does
[04:44] <lolman> Yep, you need to fiddle about with the Behaviour settings Deed
[04:44] <coNP> SanguineAnomaly: then it might be easier to reinstall ubuntu I guess
[04:44] <azalin> deed: gaim internet messanger has tabs
[04:44] <SanguineAnomaly> coNP, :) ok
[04:44] <GaiaX11> Deed: you only need to config it.
[04:44] <SanguineAnomaly> thanks guys
[04:44] <Agent_bob> frogzoo not likely though,  more likely that having gnome and kde both installed has had some strange affect on the settings.
[04:44] <azalin> just installed it today :)
[04:44] <Deed> GaiaX11, how do I config it for tabs? :)
[04:44] <frogzoo> Agent_bob: could be
[04:44] <soundray> slavekk: try 'killall nicotine' in a terminal
[04:45] <coNP> Deed: you don't have to, it is tabbed by default
[04:45] <slavekk> ok
[04:45] <lolman> Deed: head into the Behavior section of the Configuration screen, on the Chat tab there is an option for grouping chats
[04:45] <lolman> coNP: not on Kopete ;-)
[04:45] <coNP> lolman: sorry, I thought we are speaking about gaim
[04:46] <Kyral> Yoooder: Install OpenNTPD :P
[04:46] <Deed> lol! Thanks alot guys!
[04:46] <jesussm> thanks
[04:46] <jesussm> follow me
[04:46] <modisc> seems that doing the latest ubuntu update killed my xgl
[04:46] <GaiaX11> Deed: there it is
[04:47] <Yoooder> Kyral: I run ntpdate hourly when the problem is happening and it's not enough to keep my MythTV shows on schedule (I hate it when MythBusters ends 5 minutes early!)
[04:47] <modisc> won't run beryl anymore and it runs REAL slow in metacity
[04:47] <Deed> GaiaX11, yeah found it! Thanks alot.
[04:47] <soundray> modisc: 'sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11' may fix it
[04:47] <soundray> modisc: sorry 'sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic' may fix it
[04:47] <Kyral> Yoooder: Hmm....dunno is there a BIOS update for your system (BTW you should really run OpenNTPD as a daemon)
[04:47] <Agent_bob> frogzoo thanks again.     and unop i hope i did not offend you.   ignorance is nothing to be ashamed of, unless we are ignorant by our own choice.   and then it's not nesseceraly so,  i choose to be ignorant of some things in order to be aware of others...    (i suppose that is universal)
[04:47] <Yoooder> modisc: are you sure your latest upgrade didn't just mess with your video drivers?
[04:48] <modisch> i'm about to try reinstalling the fglrx drivers...
[04:48] <Yoooder> modisc: it's possible you're running without hardware acceleration would slaughter video performance
[04:48] <lolman> Do ATI's drivers get fried by kernel updates?
[04:48] <modisch> unfortunately, re-fscking after my computer crashed trying to end the xgl session
[04:48] <soundray> modisch: are you ignoring me?
[04:48] <unop> Agent_bob, dont patronize me, just leave :)
[04:48] <modisch> soundray: nope.  gonna try that after the fglrx drivers
[04:49] <humbolto> on a 100gb disk drive, is it normal for beagle to occupy as much as 1.4 gb of disk space in .beagle?
[04:49] <soundray> modisch: try this *before* the fglrx drivers
[04:49] <modisch> soundray: I can't do much right now while i fsck
[04:49] <modisch> ok
[04:50] <modisch> nice netsplit
[04:50] <Deed> Ok, next question. Is there a way to change the font settings for the tabs in kopete? :)
[04:50] <facugaich> Goodbye, orwell
[04:51] <apokryphos> ubotu: netsplit
[04:51] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[04:51] <lolman> Deed: not a clue there, I don't mind them as they are
[04:54] <Quintin> woot
[04:54] <Quintin> got TRS running with WINE
[04:54] <rage__> TRS?
[04:54] <Quintin> The Rosetta Stone!
[04:55] <modisch> soundray:  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic is already the newest version
[04:55] <rage__> Oh...
[04:55] <soundray> modisch: okay, that wasn't it then
[04:55] <Quintin> rage__: oh?
[04:55] <modisch> time for drivers i guess
[04:55] <rage__> Quintin: I know not what that is, hmmm.
[04:56] <Quintin> rage__: language training software
[04:56] <rage__> Ah.
[04:58] <modisch> well....
[04:58] <modisch> there's no new fglrx driver
[04:58] <xamox> how can I tar a directory but exclude one particular sub-dir?
[04:59] <soundray> xamox: use --exclude=PATTERN (man tar)
[04:59] <xamox> soundray, thx.
[05:00] <riotkittie> that was odd. my syslog.conf was fine... but i didnt have a tty8 running at all
[05:02] <pihus> how to send messages between users in terminal?
[05:02] <jayco> connect irc.irc-hispano.net
[05:03] <aoupi> pihus: ytalk works but it is usualy a bitch to set up

[05:03] <pihus> k, but how to kill a user in terminal?
[05:03] <aoupi> oh sorry
[05:03] <Quintin> pihus: 'man write'
[05:03] <pihus> should be skill but it ain't working
[05:03] <modisch> well, looks like i'm SOL for fglrx and xgl right now
[05:04] <Quintin> pihus: man kill, apt-get install slay
[05:04] <Quintin> modisch: why's that?
[05:04] <riotkittie> write is rad
[05:04] <modisch> quintin: it insists on not working... seems like the hardware acceleration is pooched
[05:04] <modisch> quintin: i get terrible performance and beryl crashes instantly
[05:04] <Quintin> modisch: lsmod | grep ati
[05:05] <oni> hi guys, I have kind of a serious problem here... I am still dealing with the nvidia drivers breaking on every startup, but for a while I've been just reinstalling from the nvidia installer to fix it.  now it seems that the kernel got upgraded and on restart I can't install the nvidia package because I'm lacking headers....so (1) is it possible to fix this and (2) does anyone know the package name for the latest headers?
[05:05] <modisch> quintin: cpufreq_conservative      8712     0
[05:05] <brk3> hi, my ubuntu updated last night and now whenever I log in gnome-panel crashes repeatly I cant seem to get it back to normal. other people seem to be getting the same problem is there anything i can do?
[05:05] <erUSUL> oni: 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)'
[05:05] <Quintin> oni: yes.  Install the kernel source or kernel headers for your kernel.  add 'nvidia' to /etc/modules to have it autoloaded on startup.
[05:05] <brk3> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=356854&page=2&highlight=gnome+panel+crash
[05:06] <modisch> quintin: i'm not using the 'ati' drivers, i'm using 'fglrx'
[05:06] <Quintin> modisch: I know that.
[05:06] <oni> thanks erUSUL and Quintin
[05:06] <Quintin> modisch: lsmod | grep agp
[05:06] <modisch> pulls up "intel_agp" and "agpgart"
[05:07] <modisch> and lists fglrx and intel_agp under agpgart
[05:07] <Quintin> modisch: how did you install ati driver?
[05:07] <modisch> quintin: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide#C
[05:08] <modisch> quintin: fglrxinfo turns up fine.
[05:08] <Quintin> modisch: I would recommend getting the latest driver from ati.amd.com and installing that way
[05:08] <brk3> ubuntu sucks
[05:08] <modisch> well, i think it does.  shows "OpenGL vendor strings"  for ATI technologies, 9800 Xt, 2.0.6011
[05:09] <Quintin> modisch: paste your /var/log/Xorg.0.log please
[05:10] <modisch> quintin: into the channel??
[05:10] <Quintin> modisch: ...

[05:14] <soundray> kekko: the next version of ubuntu which is currently alpha
[05:14] <modisch> quintin:  sorry, typo..  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5414/
[05:14] <kekko> soundray: uhm.. alpha is a bit of an early stage...
[05:14] <geemy> amule
[05:14] <christof-kr> aalhamad: depends on what you need it for
[05:14] <Quintin> modisch: screwy.  what does glxinfo | grep direct say ?
[05:14] <modisch> quintin: i'm on irc on a different machine because of frequent reboots
[05:15] <aalhamad> fies and moves..
[05:15] <modisch> quintin: direct rendering: Yes
[05:15] <aalhamad> movies
[05:15] <aalhamad> files
[05:15] <Quintin> modisch: can you run glxgears?
[05:15] <modisch> yes
[05:15] <aalhamad> christof-kr,
[05:15] <soundray> kekko: exactly. But your system appears to be in an inconsistent state because of a failed or partial upgrade.
[05:15] <kekko> geemy: so you are having the same problems with synaptic?
[05:15] <geemy> in my problem iu think i  also need rights to change files in folders other than my own to unlock the router  as well as the config file
[05:15] <Quintin> modisch: hmm
[05:15] <Quintin> modisch: have you tried using aiglx instead of xgl?
[05:15] <soundray> kekko: can you put the output of 'apt-get -f install' on the pastebin pls
[05:15] <geemy> no i got my apache installed
[05:16] <modisch> quintin: i'm in xorg now...  i can jump into xgl and see how everything works
[05:16] <soundray> kekko: make that sudo apt-get -f install
[05:16] <geemy> yeah i was just reading taht too
[05:16] <aalhamad> christof-kr, what are the best for movies?
[05:16] <steel_lady> one short question: sometimes my sound goes off and I don't have the sound in the whole sistem until I reboot. is there any other qay to reiniciate the sound without booting?
[05:16] <kekko> soundray: doing it now
[05:16] <geemy> i already have it , it appears
[05:16] <christof-kr> well, aalhamad.this is not really an ubuntu question. ubuntu has clients to a lot of p2p networks. but you have to decide on yourself which network you want to use in the first place
[05:17] <Quintin> steel_lady: are you using software mixing?
[05:17] <aeshyamae> hai everybody i am new to this free(dom) world
[05:17] <christof-kr> aalhamad,  i can't help you with this, because i'm not downloading movies

[05:17] <Quintin> steel_lady: system > preferences > sound
[05:17] <modisch> quintin: first attempt to load into Xgl failed with no screens found.... the second try went in
[05:17] <geemy> hello

[05:17] <Quintin> CrakeHunter: install lm_sensors
[05:18] <aeshyamae> i am using ubuntu 6.06 in that can i install the xgl desktop and have the 3d desktop effects?
