[04:34] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[04:34] <aa^way> reverseblade cant find it :(.. well my windows is in other language so im not sure damn..isnt there terminal command or osmething?
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: i woudln't recommend minimal
[04:34] <AcidX> ok
[04:34] <reverseblade> aa^way, you can do it from Xorg.conf
[04:35] <reverseblade> aa^way, not sure though
[04:35] <reverseblade> AcidX, what is your computer's brand
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: minimal, it installs the kernel, then accesses the internet to download all packages, it can take a while depending on your connection
[04:35] <AcidX> i got 10mbps
[04:35] <kditty> reverseblade: iwlist scan picks up 3 different wireless networks in my area, and lists info about them
[04:35] <reverseblade> lol
[04:35] <reverseblade> kditty, is your modem also listed there ?
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: thats great, as long as all the servers are up and running.
[04:35] <AcidX> reverseblade its 700mhz 128mb ram
[04:36] <reverseblade> AcidX, it's an old one
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: thats your problem, you need to use the alternate install cd.
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> not enough ram
[04:36] <kditty> reverseblade: by modem do you mean wireless card? or my router?
[04:36] <ShackJack> AcidX: I'd prolly try xubuntu, though... or get at least 384MB ram for ubuntu
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> it should have said system requirements when you downloaded it.
[04:36] <reverseblade> AcidX, I recommend you Xubuntu instead of ubuntu. Xubuntu is for older systems
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: xubuntu is also good advice.
[04:36] <aa^way> reverseblade can you look it up? http://pastebin.ca/638072 not sure what i should do it
[04:36] <reverseblade> kditty, yes your router
[04:36] <Kragnerac> :)
[04:36] <AcidX> ShackJack xubuntu doesn't recognize my ethernet card :(
[04:37] <aa^way> looks like VetRefresh 50-75 should be 0 or no?
[04:37] <kditty> yes my wireless network is listed there reverseblade
[04:37] <Davy_Jones> what's the program ubuntu uses to display picture?
[04:37] <aa^way> VertRefresh*
[04:37] <ccl> davy ? gthumb ?
[04:37] <AcidX> and i can't type anything there where you must type username and that :S
[04:37] <Kragnerac> Davy_Jones: I believe it's Eye of Gnome.
[04:37] <erUSUL> Davy_Jones: there are many. eog is default afaik
[04:37] <ShackJack> AcidX: Mm.... it should - it's basically xubuntu with a differnet window mgr :)
[04:37] <Davy_Jones> ccl: it is gthumb, thanks a lot
[04:37] <AcidX> ok i will go try xubuntu once more :)
[04:37] <AcidX> brb
[04:37] <reverseblade> aa^way, sorry but goolge might help
[04:37] <andi_> hi
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: try the alternate xubuntu cd
[04:38] <reverseblade> look at his quit message
[04:38] <andi_> I'd like to install beryl/compiz fr i850 card...
[04:38] <pivs> hi
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> bb in a few.
[04:38] <ShackJack> !hi | andi_
[04:38] <ubotu> andi_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:38] <andi_> where should I start?
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> reverseblade: i know, i was thinking the same thing
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:38] <Davy_Jones> i installed fluxbox and the xfe file manager so i need to do the associations all over again
[04:38] <ShackJack> andi - you want compiz fusion: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompizFusion?highlight=%28fusion%29
[04:38] <ccl> is it worth it to hassle with the nvidia binary drivers if i'm not going to be doing any 3d stuff ?
[04:38] <andi_> I tried google but I couldn't find a real starting point
[04:38] <ShackJack> andi_: And check out #ubuntu-effects or #compiz-fusion for more help...
[04:39] <andi_> thanks
[04:39] <ShackJack> ccl: Shouldn't be much hassle, but yeah, I'd say so... Compiz is also good for the windows compositing and the not 3d stuff (which you can turn off)
[04:40] <Davy_Jones> ccl: you never know when you're gonna need it.. besides, there is compiz, beryl, compiz-fusion
[04:40] <ccl> i dont use any of that stuff
[04:40] <ShackJack> ccl: Yeah, you would... but whatever...
[04:41] <Davy_Jones> ccl: is it a hassle to install the nvidia drivers? mine were kinda easy
[04:41] <berent> guys got my sound alsa hda working for intel-hda
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Laptop her gives can't access tty; job control turned off  trying to boot livecd-feisty but works fine booting livecd Dapper tried: irqpoll noapic nolapic and some others
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> here
[04:42] <ShackJack> berent: Sweet - what did you have to do modprobe modulename?
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> ccl: You can always do the drivers if you want some of that..  I dont go for fluff, I am happy with std config.
[04:42] <ccl> i think i'm just being argumentative at this point... It's a hassle for me to look up how to set up the binary drivers, and I'd rather use the freely available ones if they're functional enough.
[04:43] <ShackJack> ccl: Just pop open restricted driver manager and they should download for yuo...
[04:43] <aa^way> does anyone know how to remove VSync in linux? Google gave nothing intresting =\
[04:43] <berent> ShackJack : nope . after all default things said in wiki and others i just had tried alsaconf . and never select oss instead of alsa mixer in sound preferences else u will have to restart !!!
[04:43] <ShackJack> ccl: If you're running compiz the window compositing, live previews, and other things just make for a smoother experience - even without the eye-candy. If you've got the hardware, might as well use it :)
[04:44] <MrCrAcK> hello
[04:44] <ShackJack> berent: :) Good glad you got it working... My brother has a Gateway he can't get sound on for the life of him :(
[04:44] <ShackJack> !hi | MrCrAcK
[04:44] <ubotu> MrCrAcK: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:44] <MrCrAcK> ShackJack hi
[04:44] <kditty> where can i download dapper drake? i know for sure that the wireless card works on dapper ive used it before
[04:45] <ShackJack> !wireless | kditty - you should check this out - if it worked on drake it'll work on Edgy Feisty
[04:45] <ubotu> kditty - you should check this out - if it worked on drake it'll work on Edgy Feisty: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:45] <Justi1> what program consumes the most ram?
[04:45] <ccl> firefox
[04:45] <ShackJack> Justi1: Check your system monitor for the answer... or top in a terminal
[04:46] <ShackJack> ccl: Heehee ya, FF can use a lot o' ram, depending...
[04:46] <ccl> depending on if it's running or not *rimshot*
[04:46] <Davy_Jones> Justi1: probably Azureus also
[04:47] <kditty> ShackJack: im nto familiar with the feisty wireless settings though. to configure is way different because it wants to do everything auto and i cant really set any options
[04:47] <berent> ShackJack : whats your bro's problem
[04:47] <ShackJack> kditty: Check out link to troubleshooting guide, really...
[04:47] <kditty> ok thanks
[04:47] <ShackJack> berent: Just no sund is all... ATI integrated chipset
[04:47] <Davy_Jones> why use laptops in the first place?
[04:48] <Davy_Jones> laptops always have heat problems and performance issues
[04:48] <berent> ShackJack : has it got detected lspci?
[04:48] <[V] 1rG1|1[0] > Un saluto a tutto #ubuntu !! [[[[Aqua Script] ] ] ]
[04:48] <whonicca> man, if i could get lftp working with this ftp server i need it to connect to linux would be complete
[04:48] <whonicca> =(
[04:48] <ShackJack> Davy_Jones: Ummm portability... and mine has no heat issues or performance problems...
[04:48] <molnitza> Hello. I want to boot xubuntu from the live c, but i get errors: buffer i/o error on device fd0. Can i disable the floppy drive in the boot options?
[04:49] <ShackJack> berent: Thanks but not gonna troubleshoot it here...
[04:49] <Justi1> if 75% of ram is being used by dozens of firefox and open office docs, should some of the load be in the swap?

[04:50] <ShackJack> Davy_Jones: No sacrifice -- got a desktop , too :P
[04:51] <ShackJack> Davy_Jones: But with my lappy I'm helping these nice people and watching "Meet the Press" on my living room sofa :)

[04:53] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: java file.jar
[04:53] <geartrooper> thanks
[04:53] <Davy_Jones> no prob
[04:54] <whonicca> is there any way to limit what ports ncftp uses for connecting?
[04:54] <geartrooper> it isn't working
[04:54] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: make sure java is installed
[04:55] <shelmar> !es
[04:55] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:55] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: type just java.. what do you see?
[04:55] <ShackJack> molnitza: I don't know how, but maybe physically diconnecting the drive would work :)
[04:55] <geartrooper> Davy_Jones, I have j2re1.2 installed
[04:55] <Ifreeze> hy iam editing my motd file i try to add some sentences like eg: ip: , kernel:,  is there any way to add a variable so he automatically detect what kernel it is ...
[04:55] <geartrooper> I see directions and parameters in using java
[04:56] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: good, so it's installed
[04:56] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: that's how i run my .jar files.. i don't know what might be wrong
[04:57] <geartrooper> ok, thanks Davy_Jones
[04:57] <bulmer> geartrooper: java -jar fileof.jar
[04:58] <nikin> hy
[04:59] <nikin> hmm do you think that posting videos about how to do some things in ubuntu, on youtube is a good idea?
[04:59] <whonicca> is a remote control app installed on ubuntu by default that can be used to remote control xp?
[04:59] <nikin> honicca: what protocol you want to use?
[04:59] <Romnous> i have a question for you guys.
[05:00] <nikin> whonicca: what protocol you want to use?
[05:00] <ShackJack> !ask | Romnous
[05:00] <ubotu> Romnous: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:00] <Romnous> i want to run a linux server as gateway in a windows network, and have a mail server on it
[05:00] <Romnous> i'm running ubuntu already, but i want to know how to configure the mail server
[05:00] <bulmer> nikin: limit it to 10 minutes? i thought youtubes limit is 10 minutes
[05:00] <Ifreeze> iam editing motd, i try to add date:  and kernel:  so i want to add variables in this file that show the current date and current kernel can anyone help?
[05:01] <ShackJack> Romnous: Check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer?highlight=%28mail%29
[05:01] <whonicca> nikin, not sure
[05:01] <Romnous> the mail server must catch all the mails, and distribute them to different email accounts on windows computers in the network
[05:01] <Romnous> thx
[05:01] <TtyS2> whonicca: i uses therminal server client to control xp on a diff pc
[05:01] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i don't see how that helps, if it was a graphic design program, probably video tuts would be ok. but ubunut... i don't know
[05:02] <Romnous> thx for the link ShackJack, i'm gonna try it out!
[05:02] <nikin> whonicca: AFAIK in the network section of the menu there is a remote netork connection, or something like that... the default for XP is RDP if i remember good
[05:02] <ShackJack> nikin: Yeah, I think help.ubuntu.com does the job - provided ppl know to look there !
[05:03] <whonicca> nikin, where can i find this network section
[05:03] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i see, so you think that text tutorials and walthrous are better...
[05:03] <rbrunhuber> I
[05:03] <nikin> Whonica: in the App menu
[05:03] <nikin> i dont use Gnome so i dont know ho it is called
[05:03] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: why cant i create new files in /lib
[05:03] <jussi_> or folders for that matter
[05:04] <nikin> jussi_: no rrot privileges
[05:04] <Davy_Jones> nikin: yeah, besides, in video tuts, you can't elaborate and say what problems you might run into cuz you got size limits.. but with text, you can cover all the aspects
[05:04] <whonicca> terminal server client =)
[05:04] <jussi_> how do i setup the provelages
[05:04] <Romnous> btw, shackjack.. are windows computers capable of connecting to the mailboxes to which the mailserver forwards the mails??
[05:04] <ShackJack> jussi_: You don't  use root to access it...
[05:04] <Ifreeze> !motd
[05:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about motd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:04] <ShackJack> Romnous: Yes, they should be, given an IP address :)
[05:04] <jussi_> how do i change user too root since i cant log in as root
[05:05] <Romnous> ok that's great !!
[05:05] <Ifreeze> iam editing motd, i try to add date:  and kernel:  so i want to add variables in this file that show the current date and current kernel can anyone help?
[05:05] <Romnous> thanks for the info
[05:05] <ziroday> !root | jussi
[05:05] <ubotu> jussi: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:05] <ShackJack> jussi_: sudo command....
[05:05] <Davy_Jones> nikin: probably very basic video tutorials for those intimidated about ubuntu might be ok
[05:05] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! I need help, please! My sound died after upgrading xubuntu to feisty! Neither embedded sound chips or the audigy 2 zs works... im stuck troubleshooting and need help!
[05:05] <nikin> Davy_Jones: yep, i see... so text tutorials and screenshots if nescesarry...
[05:05] <Davy_Jones> nikin: go to lynda.com.. you'll probably see what i mean
[05:06] <tom_> jussi: to set a root password do "sudo passwd"
[05:06] <Davy_Jones> nikin: yeah
[05:06] <ShackJack> !sound | UbuntuN00B_HBG (did you see this?)
[05:06] <ubotu> UbuntuN00B_HBG (did you see this?): If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[05:06] <Silva> Hi do I have to install Nvid drivers to get my resolution above 1024?
[05:06] <obelix> Hi all. anyone knows about coctail database or software on ubuntu?
[05:06] <ziroday> Silva: what card?
[05:06] <Silva> geforce 7600
[05:06] <ShackJack> Silva: You should use nvidia drivers... dunno if you have to but it's a good idea..
[05:06] <Davy_Jones> Silva: why do you not install a driver for this lovely video card
[05:06] <Davy_Jones> Silva: use most out of it
[05:07] <Nookie^> can someone tell me how to unistall mac menu hack if someone have already done that?
[05:07] <jussi_> once ive setup the passwd i logon to root sudo root?
[05:07] <Davy_Jones> i think installing the drivers will provide better video playback, don't you think ShackJack?
[05:08] <Silva> ok do I just go to the nvid site and dl like I would in windows? or install from a repository?
[05:08] <Davy_Jones> especially HD videos
[05:08] <ShackJack> Davy_Jones: Silva: Yes, they will provide better vid playback, plus you can enable Compiz Fusion for a smoother desktop experience...
[05:08] <Silva> its my screen res im more concerned about, and the refresh rate
[05:08] <Davy_Jones> Silva: did you try the restricted drivers?
[05:08] <Silva> No im on a fresh install
[05:08] <ShackJack> Silva: Admin->Restarticted Drivers Manager
[05:08] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i want to start a blog about my work and drop in some tutorials on things, and problems that i encountered... like AMSN not working from automatix, and working with simple windowmanagers, notebook installing, FPC, Lazarus, and that kinda stuff :D
[05:09] <Davy_Jones> Silva: System > Admin > restricted drivers
[05:09] <ShackJack> Davy_Jones: Something like that :)
[05:09] <Silva> Davy_Jones: Ok thanks found that, trying it out
[05:09] <wippeout> i'm looking for someone who have a toshiba A100-948
[05:09] <Davy_Jones> nikin: DON'T teach people to use automatix please please please!!!!
[05:09] <jussi_> how do i get into root to create the new folders once i have the passwd?
[05:10] <shmeebegek> where should I ask questions about wireless LAN?
[05:10] <ShackJack> !ask | wippeout (computer model not so important as issue)
[05:10] <ubotu> wippeout (computer model not so important as issue): Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:10] <Silva> Davy_Jones: It will not enable in the Restricted Drivers Manager
[05:10] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i dont do it... itis about what if you used it, and f`cked up your programs like AMSN
[05:10] <ShackJack> !wireless | shmeebegek
[05:10] <ubotu> shmeebegek: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:10] <wippeout> i want to be able to set the contrast
[05:10] <wippeout> and the volume
[05:10] <troopperi_> !server
[05:10] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[05:10] <rbrunhuber> I'm using cyrus on feisty put can't get cyradm to work. Error is no "perl: worthy mechs found." in /var/log/authlog
[05:10] <wippeout> under windows, i put on Fn+F7
[05:11] <wippeout> but this combo doesn't work under my ubuntu feisty
[05:11] <ShackJack> Silva: What does it do when you try to check it - error messages?
[05:11] <Davy_Jones> nikin: well, as i told you, i prefer troubleshooting stuff with text HowTos and basic introductory stuff in video
[05:11] <Silva> gives me the warning about enabling it, then just does nothing
[05:11] <Davy_Jones> nikin: it's up to you to decide
[05:11] <Silva> it stays red and unchecked
[05:11] <jussi_> how do i log in as root? O_o
[05:11] <ShackJack> Silva: Tried it again?
[05:11] <Davy_Jones> jussi_: type root in the login window?
[05:11] <Silva> yes 3-4 times
[05:12] <scottd> Hey
[05:12] <media> I'm having a problem getting a virtual/aliased network interface up on feisty.  Every version of ubuntu and all other linux distro's worked fine but feisty does not, does anyone know what may have changed in feisty?
[05:12] <jussi_> Davy_Jones: not allowed to log in from the login window
[05:12] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i see... but i came to ask.. becouse people who will read it must decide :D
[05:12] <Silva> its the Nvidia accelerate graphics driver
[05:12] <Davy_Jones> Silva: i think that's the one
[05:12] <ShackJack> Silva: You can sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx   then  gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change driver from nv to nvidia and log out and back in again :)
[05:12] <scottd> I am wondering if I am writing a script and want to append to sources.list, can I use cat?
[05:12] <scottd> If so how.
[05:12] <nikin> Davy_Jones: bytheay you are just against automatix, or agains any autoinstalling programs?
[05:13] <Silva> ShackJack: I will try :)
[05:13] <allorder> I just booted ubuntu 7.04 right after I click on install the screen goes black, any idea ?
[05:13] <TtyS2> jussi_ why not use krusader as root or sudo
[05:13] <Silva> choose safe gfx mode allorder
[05:13] <Davy_Jones> nikin: just automatix
[05:13] <ShackJack> Silva: If you can't log back into gui just reedit xorg.conf and change driver back to nv
[05:13] <jussi_> TtyS2: how do i do that
[05:13] <nikin> Davy_Jones: can i ask why?
[05:13] <Davy_Jones> nikin: if i'm against autoinstalling, i wouldn't be using ubuntu :P
[05:13] <ShackJack> Silva: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf (for text mode editor)
[05:13] <allorder> Silva ok i will try
[05:13] <Silva> ShackJack: No candidate version found for nvidia-glx
[05:13] <Silva> No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
[05:14] <Davy_Jones> nikin: it screws up your system basically, isn't that enough reason
[05:14] <TtyS2> jussi_ sudo can be used in a terminal
[05:14] <ShackJack> nikin: The foreign repos and method Automatix uses can cause dependency problems and problems with upgrades/updates...
[05:14] <Davy_Jones> nikin: almost everyone who upgraded from dapper to edgy got their system f'cked up cuz there were using automatix
[05:14] <fruitbatJim> is it possible to download internet explorer for linux?
[05:14] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: that seems to be the biggest issue there, is upgrading
[05:14] <jussi_> how doi create a new folder the once i am in as root in terminal TtyS2 ?
[05:14] <Ifreeze> with what command can i see when i installed this linux version?
[05:14] <Davy_Jones> nikin: watch what ubotu says
[05:14] <Davy_Jones> !automatix | nikin
[05:14] <ubotu> nikin: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:14] <gamermichael> i was wondering what Ubuntu is out of these options : Red Hat, Debian Linux, Fendora Core Linux, Fendora Core 5 Linux, SUSE Linux, Mandriva Linux, Xandros Linux, Other Linux Kernel 2.4, Other Linux Kernel 2.6, or Other Linux
[05:15] <ShackJack> Silva: Check software sources - all boxes checked in first tab?  (Admin->Software Sources)
[05:15] <Anlar> gamermichael: other linux 2.6 is sanest
[05:15] <gamermichael> so thats what i pick for ubuntu?
[05:15] <gamermichael> im insatlling parallesl
[05:15] <Davy_Jones> jussi_: mkdir dirname
[05:15] <Silva> ShackJack: Yes all ticked
[05:15] <jussi_> Davy_Jones: thanks buddy
[05:16] <ShackJack> Silva: Did you do an update/upgrade, yet?
[05:16] <Davy_Jones> lol @ Fendora
[05:16] <TtyS2> jussi_ sudo mkdir dirname
[05:16] <Silva> no fresh on 7.04
[05:16] <gamermichael> i was wondering what Ubuntu is out of these options : Red Hat, Debian Linux, Fendora Core Linux, Fendora Core 5 Linux, SUSE Linux, Mandriva Linux, Xandros Linux, Other Linux Kernel 2.4, Other Linux Kernel 2.6, or Other Linux
[05:16] <ShackJack> Silva - do sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude -f upgrade (all one line in terminal)
[05:16] <Silva> ok
[05:16] <ShackJack> Silva: Then try restricted mgr again :)
[05:16] <scottd> I am wondering if I am writing a script and want to append to sources.list, can I use cat? If so how?
[05:16] <jussi_> TtyS2: aye.. so eg mkdir /lib/audio if i wanna create the folder "audio" in lib?
[05:16] <ShackJack> Silva: Close softare sources first :)
[05:17] <Silva> ShackJack: have done :)
[05:17] <gamermichael> i was wondering what Ubuntu is out of these options : Red Hat, Debian Linux, Fendora Core Linux, Fendora Core 5 Linux, SUSE Linux, Mandriva Linux, Xandros Linux, Other Linux Kernel 2.4, Other Linux Kernel 2.6, or Other Linux
[05:17] <IndyGunFreak> gamermichael: Ubuntu is a Debian Derivative
[05:17] <allorder> Silva: even in safe graphic mode the screen go black
[05:17] <Davy_Jones> gamermichael: it's Fedora, not Fendora.. besides, this will bring a very long and endless conversation.. go to !offtopic
[05:17] <gamermichael> kk..thanks
[05:17] <Davy_Jones> !offtopic | gamermichael
[05:17] <ubotu> gamermichael: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:17] <TtyS2> include sudo, yes, look at man mkdir
[05:18] <gamermichael> #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:18] <Silva> allorder: then i dont know, that worked for me :)
[05:18] <gamermichael> wtf
[05:18] <Davy_Jones> gamermichael: yeah
[05:18] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i see, so you are againsforeign repos. coz some soft i nedd is not available on apt, sometimes not even .deb package... and so i should write a script whitch can install it... if i dont want to do some 30 steps on every maschine. :D automatix sux for shure, but i think a lot of people need w32codecs if nothing else
[05:18] <assasukasse> hi everyone i have a problem with networkmanager applet, i connect to an open wifi, and after some hours i lose the connection and it says is wep passworded, of course is not..so i have to reboot the pc in order for it to work..how can i fix that?
[05:18] <gamermichael> #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:18] <allorder> I have ati x700 pro
[05:18] <ShackJack> scottd: Something like: echo "deb http://www.getautomatix.com/apt feisty main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:18] <allorder> its suppose to work well ?
[05:18] <IndyGunFreak> gamermichael:    "/join #ubuntu-offtopic" no quotes
[05:18] <gamermichael> ohh...ok
[05:18] <gamermichael> lol
[05:18] <bulmer> assasukasse: did you try just /etc/init.d/networking restart  without rebooting?
[05:18] <jussi_> TtyS2: got it. cheers
[05:19] <ShackJack> assasukasse: Don't reboot - that's the Windows Way -- sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart :)
[05:19] <assasukasse> no bulmer i will try next time it does that
[05:19] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i'm sure there are guides for everything.. remember, ubuntu got all shiny and famous cuz of the wealth of documentation you can find
[05:19] <ShackJack> assasukasse: Or what bulmer said ;)
[05:19] <assasukasse> ShackJack: networking restart or dbus
[05:19] <scottd> ShackJack: Sounds good...
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> Davy_Jones: quite true... but it also got all famous cuz it generally works
[05:19] <Silva> can you view running processes in Gnome?
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> and a bazillion dollars behind it helped to.
[05:20] <jussi_> i need to drag and drop something from my desktop to /lib but i dont have the permissions .. what to do?
[05:20] <ShackJack> Silva: Yes, system monitor or top in terminal
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> jussi01: open a terminal  gksudo nautilus
[05:20] <ShackJack> Silva: There's also a gnome panel applet for system monitor (add to panel)
[05:20] <bulmer> Silva: you can always use  ps -aux
[05:20] <allorder> I just booted ubuntu 7.04 when I click on install or safe graph mode the screen goes black on ati x700 pro , someone can help pls?
[05:20] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: Is he still here :)
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: :)
[05:20] <nikin> Davy_Jones: yep sometimes, but a lot of people dont ant to do that 30 steps... and i dont want to do it after the fifth installed computer either... so autoinstalling is something of a must if one want to get WIn users to use ubuntu IMHO
[05:20] <Silva> ty I only needed one option, not 3, you guys are too helpful sometimes :p
[05:20] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i'm against anything that doesn't work.. not particularly foreign repos
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: open a terminal, gksudo nautilus
[05:21] <ShackJack> Silva: More than one way to skin a cat -- if you want GUI way sysmon is good but uses more resources...
[05:21] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i got foreign repos myself, but for very minimal stuff
[05:21] <Silva> ShackJack: Yeah but its pretty :)
[05:21] <jussi_> i just love ubuntu support :)
[05:21] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: cheerz
[05:21] <Troggie> hello all
[05:22] <ShackJack> Silva: Did you get nvidia driver in - or still doing updates?
[05:22] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: lol.. no prob
[05:22] <ShackJack> !hi | Troggie
[05:22] <Silva> ShackJack: Still updatin!
[05:22] <blue|palm> Hi, I have instAlled compiz-fusion, but when i run it through berly mAnAger it seems to not loAd emerAld or something... I get no title bArs or window borders etc, And I cAnt rotAte the cube At All
[05:22] <Troggie> is Ubuntu 6.10 better then Fedora Core 4?
[05:22] <ubotu> Troggie: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:22] <Troggie> hi ubotu
[05:22] <ShackJack> Silva: That might be issue with restricted driver mgr... Your card is supported... After you can enable desktop effects if you want or put in compiz fusion!
[05:22] <allorder> I just booted ubuntu 7.04 when I click on install or safe graph mode the screen goes black on ati x700 pro , someone can help pls?
[05:22] <Silva> ubotu is a bot ;)
[05:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a bot ;) - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:22] <curare> :D
[05:22] <ShackJack> Silva: Otherwise should should be able to install that package and update xorg.conf as previously described...
[05:23] <Troggie> Silva is Ubuntu 6.10 better the Fedora Core 4?
[05:23] <Stormx2> !best | Troggie
[05:23] <ubotu> Troggie: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:23] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: just remember, when you get familiar with ubuntu, to come here and contribute to the newbies, about 9mo ago, i didn't even know how to pronounce ubuntu
[05:23] <Silva> Troggie: Dont ask me :)
[05:23] <Troggie> who can i ask
[05:23] <Stormx2> Troggie: Substitute "application" for "operating system"
[05:23] <Silva> an expert
[05:23] <Stormx2> Troggie: It depends fully on what you're trying to do, your hardware, etc etc etc.
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> Troggie: better is an extremely subjective term
[05:23] <Troggie> well i want to host a IRCd
[05:23] <ShackJack> Troggie: You have no criteria on which to judge upon - Ubuntu is likely easier and better supported... And I like using latest stable version - 7.04 - lots of improvements...
[05:23] <Silva> Yes the question does seem subjective :)
[05:24] <Stormx2> Troggie: What kind of connection are you on?
[05:24] <Troggie> DSL
[05:24] <nikin> Davy_Jones: Linux has a long way to go to drop propertary formats, and ot supporting things like mp3 out of the box is a serous bad point for the average home user. thats all.
[05:24] <Ghismo> guys is there any kind of line command in "apt" style to recompile a package?
[05:24] <westguy> I am new to Ubuntu
[05:24] <IndyGunFreak> Troggie: ubuntu 6.10 is going to be more up to date than FC4
[05:24] <Stormx2> Troggie: Unless you're expecting a bunch of traffic, go with Ubuntu Server.
[05:24] <Stormx2> IndyGunFreak: FC5 is out, methinks. Maybe more.
[05:24] <Troggie> is there a firewall on Ubuntu ?
[05:24] <ericmoogle> FC7 is out
[05:24] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: actually, fedora  7 was just released
[05:24] <Stormx2> Ghismo: reinstall, you mean?
[05:25] <nikin> Troggie: yep.
[05:25] <Stormx2> IndyGunFreak: Hah! I'm so behind the times!
[05:25] <Kragnerac> Fedora Core 7 is the current version. :)
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: hav eyou saw that awesome movie, Back to the Future?..lol
[05:25] <IanLiu> Hello. My CD-ROM doesn't stop reading, even if I am not accessing it. Any tips why?
[05:25] <Troggie> will Webmin work on it?
[05:25] <Ghismo> i mean a recompiling
[05:25] <westguy> can someone tell me why when installation of Version 7.04 no root password is set
[05:25] <nikin> Troggie: yep i use it with shorewall and works fine
[05:25] <Davy_Jones> Troggie: in my opinion, ubuntu packages aren't thoroughly tested like fedora packages.. like anyone can release an ubuntu package in 1 day and night.. but in fedora, packages take about a week of testing.. but ubuntu is better for many things
[05:25] <Troggie> so its better for IRCd server the FC4
[05:25] <Stormx2> !root | westguy
[05:25] <ubotu> westguy: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:25] <Davy_Jones> Troggie: again, that's my opinion
[05:25] <flaviocpontes> westguy: Because we use sudo to do administrative stuff, so no passwd is needed
[05:25] <Ghismo> for example
[05:26] <Stormx2> Uhg.
[05:26] <Ghismo> if i wanted recompile openoffice
[05:26] <ShackJack> !iptables | Troggie
[05:26] <ubotu> Troggie: 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).
[05:26] <Stormx2> Stupid in-jokes.
[05:26] <IndyGunFreak> Ghismo: why on earth would you want to do that?
[05:26] <allorder> I just booted ubuntu 7.04 when I click on install or safe graph mode the screen goes black on ati x700 pro , someone can help pls?
[05:26] <Ghismo> to make it faster
[05:26] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i agree with your last statement.. well, there is Linux Mint
[05:26] <Stormx2> Ghismo: Well, you can uninstall it then compile it?
[05:26] <Troggie> ah ic thank u so much guys
[05:26] <Troggie> thank u cheers
[05:26] <else> how can i fix my locales? they're broken: locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
[05:26] <Ghismo> u mean managing a tarball
[05:26] <Ghismo> ?
[05:26] <Davy_Jones> nikin: and proprietary formats are not as hard to install after 7.04 came out
[05:26] <westguy> but without root password I cannot install java, I am new to linux
[05:26] <IndyGunFreak> i bet it would take forever to compile open office.
[05:27] <ShackJack> allorder: Not sure on that but you might have better luck with alt. install cd (text-mode)
[05:27] <Stormx2> Ghismo: *sigh* please make sense.
[05:27] <flaviocpontes> westguy Yes you can
[05:27] <Ghismo> :-) sorry u're right
[05:27] <flaviocpontes> westguy use sudo and YOUR passwd
[05:27] <Stormx2> Ghismo: Open synaptic, remove all instances of "openoffice", then go to openoffice.org, download the source, and compile it according to the INSTALL file.
[05:27] <nikin> Davy_Jones: thats true... but i think it should be out of the box, or if not else and icon on the Desktop :D
[05:27] <Ghismo> ok
[05:27] <IndyGunFreak> Ghismo: i don't think the "new" version of OO is gonna be any faster than the one you have
[05:27] <allorder> ShackJack: how ?
[05:27] <ShackJack> !alternate | allorder
[05:27] <ubotu> allorder: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[05:27] <Stormx2> westguy: You being new doesn't stop you from reading the page ubotu linked you to.
[05:28] <Ghismo> oh...ok ;-)
[05:28] <ericmoogle> Can anybody walk me through how to get Ubuntu to recognize my CD drive?
[05:28] <alesan> hi
[05:28] <westguy> ok thank you. will try again. I am using version 7.04 on my powermac G4
[05:28] <Davy_Jones> nikin: you want people to go to jail for you? :P
[05:28] <ShackJack> allorder: Weird that you can boot into it - and *then* in goes black after clickinig install..
[05:28] <ShackJack> !hi | ales
[05:28] <Stormx2> Ghismo: Incase you don't want to scroll up: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:28] <ubotu> ales: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:28] <ShackJack> !hi  | alesan
[05:28] <ubotu> alesan: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:28] <allorder> in safe mode 1
[05:28] <allorder> in safe mode 2
[05:28] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: It should be recognized already
[05:28] <alesan> what if I want to test the next release of ubuntu, we are developing a device and we should make sure everything works.
[05:28] <nikin> Davy_Jones: nope... but here in my country the la protects the users in things like mp3 or DVD
[05:29] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i think they can't include it out of the box because it might not be legal
[05:29] <Ghismo> thanks !
[05:29] <Libila> if I changed the nice value of Xorg would it make it so my mouse movement wasn't so jerky under higher load
[05:29] <Stormx2> !gutsy | alesan
[05:29] <ubotu> alesan: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule - Roadmap and specifications: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy - Support in #ubuntu+1
[05:29] <Libila> Not sure which process that would be
[05:29] <Davy_Jones> nikin: yeah, it's different from country to country
[05:29] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle is it an IDE, SCSI or USB?
[05:29] <Silva> !wireless
[05:29] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:29] <ShackJack> alesan: Upgrade to Gutsy :)  sudo update-manager -d or get ISP
[05:29] <ShackJack> *ISO
[05:29] <Stormx2> Libila: Pretty sure it's hard to avoid...
[05:30] <Davy_Jones> gotta go.. bb
[05:30] <ShackJack> Later Davy_Jones
[05:30] <Stormx2> Davy Jones? Isn't that a character from Pirates Of The Caribbean? Sucks to be you ;D
[05:30] <ericmoogle> Faliocpontes: The drive is an IDE drive.
[05:30] <westguy> I not sure what to do when I type sudo in terminal
[05:30] <westguy> my user name is roy
[05:31] <Stormx2> westguy: Please read the page.
[05:31] <Ghismo> one last thing...i need of a good java IDE
[05:31] <Stormx2> It explains everything fully...
[05:31] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i ame just waiting the time till i can get my hands on a phone hat can play ogg like the one now can play mp3, then i will convert all my music , rougly 80Gb, most of it is legal:D realy :D so i will convert for a week, and then it will not bother me.
[05:31] <westguy> okok thanks
[05:31] <Ghismo> is there any open version
[05:31] <Ghismo> ?
[05:31] <Nullset> I have a problem using pppoe
[05:31] <neighborlee> Ghismo, eclipse is what you prob. want ;)..googling will find it.
[05:31] <ShackJack> Stormx2: Also the lead singer of "The Monkees"
[05:31] <Nullset> You see if i keep my connection as ppp
[05:31] <Stormx2> Ooh.
[05:31] <Nullset> then it works fine
[05:31] <Stormx2> Cool!
[05:32] <Ghismo> god bless you !;-)
[05:32] <westguy> can the non server version use for domain control of windows pc?
[05:32] <neighborlee> Ghismo, or just apt-get it
[05:32] <Nullset> but if i try to make a WAN connection or a bridged connection then
[05:32] <Nullset> erm
[05:32] <Nullset> what do i do
[05:32] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: I think it is timing out when it is trying to mount my CD drive because when I first boot the computer it just hangs for about 3 minutes before the boot completes.
[05:32] <Nullset> how do i connect ??
[05:32] <neighborlee> Ghismo, though what you get from repo may not be current..
[05:32] <Silva> ShackJack: Ok my updates have finished in the terminal, now the update manager has popped up in Gnome, do I need to run that too?
[05:32] <_imran_> do you need to format a hard drive before you can partition it?
[05:32] <nikin> Til that time i need the propertary stuff... not even all linux programs can handle ogg vorbis and theora... bad..bad :(
[05:32] <IndyGunFreak> Ghismo: but usually whats int he repo, is stable.
[05:32] <ShackJack> Silva: might as well :) It'll prolly say all done :)
[05:32] <Nullset> anyone around
[05:32] <ShackJack> Silva: Lots of updates from a new install
[05:32] <ShackJack> !ask | Nullset
[05:32] <ubotu> Nullset: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:33] <kditty> is dewsktop cd the same as live cd?
[05:33] <Stormx2> nikin: Converting your music from one lossy format to another will lose you a significant amount of quality.
[05:33] <ShackJack> kditty: Yep...
[05:33] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Is there a CD inside?
[05:33] <kditty> thanks
[05:33] <Silva> ShackJack: well its downloading so guess I have some more to do
[05:33] <Nullset> Shackjack : i asked already
[05:33] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: Nope, no cd inside of it!
[05:33] <Nullset> no one replied so i asked if anyone was listening
[05:33] <Nullset> lol
[05:33] <Nullset> nevermind
[05:33] <flaviocpontes> so its not a mount problem
[05:33] <ShackJack> Nullset: You can always ask again...
[05:34] <Nullset> When i use ppp connection the internet works fine
[05:34] <Nullset> but i want to use a bridged connection
[05:34] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Can you send me your /var/log/syslog ?
[05:34] <Nullset> how do i do it
[05:34] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: I actually get the splash screen with the progress bar, but it just sits there forever before the bar starts moving. Then when it finally boots I have no Cd drive
[05:34] <Stormx2> !enter | Nullset
[05:34] <ubotu> Nullset: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:34] <westguy> ubuntu is really nice and easy to use.:P
[05:34] <Nullset> aah, okay
[05:34] <nikin> Stormx2: i ame sure i can do it. playing with bitrates and all... and if not else i have a shelf of aoudio CD-s wich i can reGrab, but thats some time :D~
[05:34] <_imran_> do you need to format a hard drive before you can partition it?
[05:34] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: try disconnecting the CD and see if the boot process speeds up
[05:35] <bulmer> _imran_: yes, if its not in the correct format
[05:35] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle then come back Ill hang around a little more
[05:35] <_imran_> ok
[05:35] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: Ok, do you want the syslog?
[05:35] <Nullset> anybody with any ideas :p
[05:35] <_imran_> bulmer, what format would that eb?
[05:35] <flaviocpontes> yes, anyway
[05:35] <nikin> _imran_: no partitioning is on a lower level... so you can just delete partitions and ake ne ones no formatting is reqd
[05:35] <_imran_> *be
[05:35] <bulmer> _imran_: for which file system you want
[05:35] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: yes, send it to me
[05:36] <Stormx2> nikin: i wasn't doubting you can do it. I was just saying that ANY lossy -> lossy conversion (whether it remains on the same format, same bitrate, whatever) will sound awful.
[05:36] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: ok
[05:36] <Nullset> There used to be a utility called pppoeconfig, does it still exist ??. I used pppconfig but it asks me to dial a number erm when there is no number.
[05:36] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: there you go
[05:36] <_imran_> bulmer, i want to partition my friends hd, to dual boot and run Ubuntu
[05:36] <nikin> Stormx2: i have diferent experiences but it depends on my ears i think....
[05:36] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: I send the upload request
[05:36] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle not here.
[05:37] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: how do i send it to you?
[05:37] <Stormx2> nikin: meh, whatever. I'm no audiophile but I can immediately spot a transcoded music file.
[05:37] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: I'm using Xchat
[05:37] <nikin> Stormx2: i cant... thats why i dont use FLAC
[05:37] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: did you get my private msg?
[05:37] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes:oooo did not even see it.
[05:37] <Silva> shackjack: restarting brb
[05:37] <Stormx2> I sometimes use flac. mostly I use V0. Even 128kbps it a bunch better than a trancode!
[05:38] <ShackJack> _imran_: You don't need to reformat - but on windows side clean out as much as you can and checkdisk/defrag... installer will take care of new partitions and formatting
[05:38] <pussfeller> is GLIB dev files libglib2.0-dev ?
[05:38] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: its strange. Maybe its the firewall. dunno. anywway, just unplug the CD and try to boot without it. If its the cultrip the boot should speed up considerably
[05:39] <_imran_> ShackJack, thanx :)
[05:39] <Stormx2> pussfeller: if you're using glib2.0, yeah
[05:39] <bulmer> _imran_: well you can have 3 partitions, maybe even 4,  allocate some for windows, linux, swap, and /home
[05:39] <Stormx2> Here here!
[05:39] <pussfeller> Stormx2: im compiling and it says I need glib dev library
[05:39] <ShackJack> _imran_: Be careful on the partioning thing... You'll want to do manually and ideally have partiion for swap / (root) and /home ...
[05:39] <pussfeller> Stormx2: its for gnucash
[05:39] <vanberge> anybody use dvd::rip ?

[05:40] <Pretor1ab> i presume it uses svn or cvs ?
[05:40] <Stormx2> pussfeller: Thought so. okay, go ahead with the package you mentioned.
[05:41] <Silva> ShackJack: Now we are getting somewhere, Restricted drivers is downloading an update
[05:41] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Do you want me to disconnect my drive and restart and see what happens?
[05:41] <pussfeller> Stormx2: thanks

[05:42] <Silva> ShackJack: need another reboot brb
[05:42] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle and see what happens
[05:42] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: ShackJack's advice is probably better.
[05:42] <ericmoogle> OK, BRB
[05:42] <ericmoogle> quit
[05:42] <ShackJack> Stormx2: Nah... you got it :)
[05:42] <Nullset> Shackjack : do you anything about pppoeconf

[05:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about buildessential - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[05:44] <curtis_>  am wondering how can i listen to WMA files on ubuntu! i tried it in both gxine as well as VLC and even downloaded all the requireed codes.. but the probs stays.. the player plays it but i cant hear anything..
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> !stormx2
[05:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about stormx2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:44] <Stormx2> PLEASE INSERT GIRDER
[05:44] <Stormx2> !w32codecs | curtis_
[05:44] <ubotu> curtis_: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[05:44] <ShackJack> curtis_: Did you get the gstreamer codecs - try Movie Player ...
[05:44] <curtis_> i downloaded the codecs..
[05:45] <curtis_> w32codecs_20061022-0.0_i386
[05:45] <IndyGunFreak> i think there's a special codec for wma
[05:45] <cura> hi @ all, how do you mount a NTFS volume so that you have read access without using sudo? i edited fstab with options users, noauto  but that doesn't seem to do the trick
[05:45] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  i looked in the ubuntu forums.. with no luck
[05:45] <yabuk> someone say to me a good video encoder (with grafic mode :)
[05:45] <ShackJack> curtis_: Dunno if this helps? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[05:45] <Nullset> bye bye i come back after configuring pppoe
[05:45] <Anlar> yabuk: avidemux
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: are you using xmms?
[05:46] <ShackJack> yabuk: VNC is pretty good...
[05:46] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  nop! gxine and vlc
[05:46] <Silva> ShackJack: restricted driver is enabled, but I still cant go above 1024 res and 50hz
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: try xmms..
[05:46] <ShackJack> Silva: What resolution do you want?
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> curtis.. here's the command i'm reading..
[05:46] <yabuk> thanks
[05:46] <Silva> 1280 or 1600
[05:47] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: sudo apt-get install xmms xmms-skins xmms-wma
[05:47] <ericmoogle> Ok, I'm back and have my CD drive disconnected, the computer started up like a champ with it disconnected so I think its definately having problems mounting it.
[05:47] <Stormx2> curtis_: What media player do you use?
[05:47] <Myzrael> Rythmbox is nice :D
[05:47] <Silva> and a better frequency
[05:47] <BetaTester> Hi all. I was wondering if someone is having an intel dualcore Ubuntu PC without ECC with uptime more than 7 days?
[05:47] <curtis_> Stormx2:  both gxine as well as VLC
[05:47] <ShackJack> Silva: What is native resolution of your monitor (LCD)
[05:47] <Silva> no 21" crt
[05:47] <Stormx2> curtis_: I don't mean to patronise - are you sure you have w32codecs installed? Check under synaptic.
[05:48] <curtis_> Stormx2:  i just did
[05:48] <Silva> ShackJack: not sure on native res?
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: stop patronizing. ;)
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: try that command i listed above.
[05:48] <curtis_> w32codecs_20061022-0.0_i386
[05:48] <ConfidentiaL> how do I remove gnome if I installed ubuntu?
[05:48] <ShackJack> Silva: You can dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org or  gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf and manually add desired resolutions (no native res on CRTs)
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> but it does appear to be a codec issue
[05:48] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  i dislike xmms!
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: ok..
[05:48] <Myzrael> curtis_, me to
[05:49] <Myzrael> Looks like winamp
[05:49] <aricz> oh noes, looks like winamp
[05:49] <Silva> ShackJack: ok so 1024 is the normal max on vanilla gnome?
[05:49] <Myzrael> rythmbox is cool
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> i hate xmms to for the record, its just it appears xmms has a wma plugin.
[05:49] <Myzrael> quick searching trough albums
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: what about audacious?
[05:49] <ShackJack> Silva: No - sometimes it just has trouble detecting all available resoultions...
[05:49] <Silva> ok
[05:49] <Myzrael> rythmbox uses Gstreamer so should run wma as well
[05:49] <Stormx2> I used to use audacious
[05:49] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  audacious?! whts tht..
[05:49] <Myzrael> just install the wmc codec
[05:49] <Stormx2> I use MPD and Sonata now.
[05:49] <curtis_> ShackJack:  i tried ur advice didnt work either:)
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: cosmetically similar to xmms, but works better IMO
[05:50] <curtis_> well where can i get th wma codec!
[05:50] <biosword> ciao per andare nel canale debian.it
[05:50] <Eversun> how to configure modem router isp?
[05:50] <biosword> ?
[05:50] <ShackJack> curtis_: Eh? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs  - that should do it (?)
[05:50] <Nutubuntu> !it
[05:50] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[05:50] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: I unplugged it
[05:50] <Myzrael> indeed ShackJack
[05:50] <curtis_> ShackJack:  i did... and same thing:) didnt work
[05:50] <logreeval> Has anyone here used a HP dv6000 series laptop with ubuntu?
[05:50] <Myzrael> but movie player in gnome automaticly downloads the codecs for you
[05:50] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Computer booted very fast with no hangs.
[05:51] <curtis_> Myzrael: its supposed to..
[05:51] <ShackJack> curtis_: You sure you have win32codecs installed ?
[05:51] <Myzrael> some wma files just don't work though
[05:51] <Eversun> hello what is the alternative dreamweavercs3 for ubuntu?
[05:51] <Myzrael> linux limitation
[05:51] <Silva> ShackJack: Package `xserver-org' is not installed and no info is available
[05:51] <Myzrael> (well.......microsoft limitation ofcourse)
[05:51] <Stormx2> Eversun: Making decent websites? ;-)
[05:51] <curtis_> ShackJack:  yes
[05:51] <ShackJack> Myzrael: I've never had an issue with WMA - most of my 10,00 song collection is WMA :)
[05:51] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: we got the cultrip
[05:51] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, I cant figure this out
[05:51] <Myzrael> WMA protected
[05:51] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Cool
[05:51] <Eversun> Stormx2: yeah dude...
[05:52] <Nullset> back, its working now.... thank you guys!!!
[05:52] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Any chance you can get a replacement?
[05:52] <curtis_> well is there a way to convert it to mp3 for example!
[05:52] <ShackJack> Silva: ah... it's something else them... comfortable with adding to xorg.conf by hand?
[05:52] <Eversun> Stormx2: license of dreamweavercs3 cant afford
[05:52] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: wait. Is it IDE?
[05:52] <Nullset> hrm, i installed my ubuntu with the live cd. Is it okay ??
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: there's lots of ways, google
[05:52] <Silva> ShackJack: Sounds relatively painless, sure :)
[05:52] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Well i know it works, because I just switched from Kubuntu to Ubuntu and it worked just fine in Kubuntu
[05:52] <Stormx2> Eversun: nvu is a WYSIWYG editor. sudo apt-get install nvu. You should consider hand-coding though. Your websites will be faster, cleaner, more compliant, more browser-compatible and ready for future browsers.
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> Nullset: why wouldn't it be?
[05:52] <Myzrael> Nullset, that's the normal way to do it.
[05:52] <Pretor1ab> I get a 301 moved
[05:52] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  most of the results are windows based...
[05:52] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: I think its having a mounting problem of some sort
[05:52] <ShackJack> Silva: Go for it - just add desired reses at bottom where res are listed...
[05:52] <Nullset> or should i install my ubuntu using some other cd
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: because DRM is a windows issue.
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> i'm not aware of a linux crack, because most linux apps don't read it.
[05:53] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: strange. did you upgrade?
[05:53] <Silva> ShackJack: ok using this? gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:53] <Myzrael> Nullset : No just plug the live CD in and install it.
[05:53] <ShackJack> Silva: Yep.... Be carefull in there :)
[05:53] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle pr did a clean install
[05:53] <deathnall> hi guys i need some help if poss
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: is this a song, or something by a favorite artist?
[05:53] <Myzrael> And be sure to read everything well
[05:53] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Nope both versions were fiesty fawn, but I did not like WPA support in KDE.
[05:53] <Stormx2> Silva: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg you mean :)
[05:53] <Silva> ShackJack: nothing happens when i do it
[05:53] <deathnall> its to do with swscanner
[05:53] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  ya it is
[05:53] <Silva> ah ok :)
[05:53] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Yes, clean format and install
[05:53] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Which model is you drive?
[05:53] <ShackJack> Silva: gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: uh, why don't you just install limewire or frostwire, get on it, and download it in mp3 format
[05:54] <deathnall> whenever i click start scan
[05:54] <ShackJack> Silva: gksu ....
[05:54] <_tobias> hi, when my sytem is idle i can hear regular, constant hd-accesses, which are very anoying. any idea how i might find out which process is causing them?
[05:54] <Nullset> Myzrael : I already installed it.
[05:54] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Ummmm TDK.......I might have to rip it out for the model
[05:54] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  cos its my gf who recorded it.. so i doubt its going to b online :P
[05:54] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle no need
[05:54] <deathnall> it says siocsiwmode 95: operation not supported
[05:54] <Myzrael> Nullset , then you're set ;)
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: so its not by a famous artist, its by your gf.
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> ok.
[05:54] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  exactly
[05:54] <deathnall> and after i click ok it says interface doesnt support scanning
[05:55] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: TDK Model: AI-CDRW401248B
[05:55] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle. Well, we know its the drive. Now we must determine if its your drive or a realted problem
[05:55] <IndyGunFreak> well, short of that command i told you for xmms i don't know.
[05:55] <Silva> ShackJack: do i edit all the lines with res's on?
[05:55] <Nullset> Myzarael : Are there any post install guides for dapper drake
[05:55] <Myzrael> why would you like drapper?
[05:55] <Beyond_The_Grave> For all of you iPod fans out there the best app for it (besides iTunes) has to be songbirsd
[05:55] <ShackJack> Silva: Just the one where the Depth matches Default depth, but you might as well do all...
[05:55] <Beyond_The_Grave> songbird*
[05:55] <Nullset> Its stable
[05:55] <Beyond_The_Grave> This app is the shiot!
[05:55] <Silva> ShackJack: there are 6 subsections
[05:55] <Nullset> its dapper or drapper, dunno but it has LTS
[05:55] <Myzrael> Feisty is fine
[05:56] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle Try to reatach it and check if the cable is well connected, if the Master/Slave/CS jumper is in the right place. thngs like that. If nothing works, try installing another CD drive to see if yours i broken.
[05:56] <ShackJack> Silva: Yep... copy paste "1600xBlah" "1280xblah"
[05:56] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Ok, I will give it a try
[05:56] <curtis_> is there a way to rip music off a cd! ill try burn them as an audio cd.. and then rip them again
[05:56] <curtis_> to linux directly
[05:56] <deathnall>  hi guys i need some help if poss. its to do with swscanner  whenever i click start scan  it says siocsiwmode 95: operation not supported and after i click ok it says interface doesnt support scanning
[05:56] <curtis_> would gxine or vlc b able to do so ?
[05:56] <Silva> ShackJack: so this "1024x768"	"800x600"	"640x480" to this "1280x960"	"1024x768"	"800x600"	"640x480"
[05:56] <ShackJack> curtis_: Yep - or sound juicer
[05:56] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle Good luck.  I must leave now.  See ya
[05:56] <curtis_> ShackJack: ok thank you :)
[05:56] <Nullset> Are there any post install guides like there were for breezy with all the things like installing softwares and changing repostries thinggy
[05:56] <kraut> moin
[05:57] <ShackJack> Silva: Yep - feel free to add higher rezs to... Make highest ones first..
[05:57] <curtis_> ShackJack:  one more question! is there a command to clean up linux! like from temp internet files and none used downloaded files and so on!
[05:57] <bulmer> deathnall: what does that swcanner do?
[05:57] <deathnall> scans for wireless
[05:57] <ShackJack> curtis_: Not one line, no - a variety of stuff...
[05:57] <Silva> ShackJack: ok what about refreshes? can i change these: Horizsync	28-51  Vertrefresh	43-60
[05:57] <dr_willis> curtis_,   honestly - its not as big a dell as that is  under windows
[05:57] <bulmer> deathnall: scan for wireless AP?
[05:57] <ShackJack> Silva: I'd focus on getting resolution to work first :)
[05:57] <deathnall> yes
[05:57] <deathnall> ap
[05:58] <curtis_> dr_willis:  oh ok then :) ill leave em b..
[05:58] <curtis_> thanks you all for helping out :)
[05:58] <Silva> ok :)
[05:58] <curtis_> i appreciate it
[05:58] <bulmer> deathnall respond with prefixed nick so your responses cant be missed
[05:58] <Silva> ShackJack: do i need to reboot?
[05:58] <dr_willis> curtis_,  all user stuff is in their home dirs.. let them clean out what they want. Theres firefox extensions to help clear the cache, and system wide, the apt system has a tool to clean out the downloads. but other then that..  /tmp i think gets cleaned on boot. (not sure)
[05:58] <ShackJack> Silva: CTRL-ALT-Backspace to restart X and log back in and select resolution (hopefully)
[05:58] <deathnall> sorry im new to linux

[06:02] <ShackJack> Silva: It's the remerge of beryl back into compiz - beter new stuff... I turn off desktop effects before trying to install...
[06:02] <deathnall> acutally its pointless
[06:02] <Myzrael> Compiz Fusion is the next step :)
[06:02] <deathnall> who sent me the link?
[06:02] <bill> hello
[06:02] <deathnall> it just tells me about wireless cards
[06:02] <juwenfei> hi
[06:02] <Silva> ah ok :)
[06:02] <deathnall> not me running a programme as root
[06:02] <ShackJack> deathnall: There's a troubleshooting guide there - scroll down...
[06:03] <deathnall> shack jack thnx will take a look
[06:03] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Well I reconnected it and it booted up nice and fast, there was no hang this time so maybe the cable was loose? But I still cannot see my drive when I go to some type of CD-burning application
[06:03] <ShackJack> !hi | juwenfei
[06:03] <ubotu> juwenfei: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:03] <Silva> ShackJack: think ill stick with the vanilla gnome while i set things up, thanks for all your help
[06:03] <ShackJack> Silva: Yep - enjoy!
[06:03] <bill> i need help with the beryl
[06:03] <deathnall> shack
[06:03] <deathnall> im not wireless
[06:03] <juwenfei> I've got a problem... I cannot play videos, all formats. I installed totem and corresponding codecs, but when i open a file,  the totem closes automatically . any suggestions?
[06:03] <deathnall> i just want to run the swscanner
[06:03] <bill> i can not run the beryl manager
[06:03] <deathnall> to scan for them
[06:03] <ShackJack> bill - check out #beryl or #ubuntu-effects but Compiz Fusion is the way forward https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion?highlight=%28fusion%29
[06:03] <bulmer> deathnall: you can as root...  iwlist wlan0 scan
[06:04] <bill> ok
[06:04] <Myzrael> juwenfei, Try a different video player
[06:04] <deathnall> ok cool thnx bulmer
[06:04] <Myzrael> try VLC
[06:04] <Myzrael> that should play everything
[06:04] <deathnall> ok sill question but how do i run root?
[06:04] <Myzrael> sudo commandhere
[06:04] <Nutubuntu> !root
[06:04] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[06:04] <py_geek> All- Hey, i'm having a problem with my wireless connection... Somehow the network connection thing that lets you choose which network you want has gone away. I've tried "add to panel" thing, but i couldn't find the same application I had before....
[06:04] <deathnall> ummm
[06:04] <whonicca> any way to remote assist someone ubuntu to windows?
[06:04] <juwenfei> thank you all.
[06:05] <Myzrael> you can change the rootpasswd in ubuntu though
[06:05] <Myzrael> sudo passwd root
[06:05] <deathnall> ok guys
[06:05] <deathnall> i just want to run root
[06:05] <Myzrael> But you will never need it
[06:05] <deathnall> how do i do it?
[06:05] <Myzrael> not as a noob
[06:05] <Myzrael> so never do that
[06:05] <Silva> Are the Ralink rt2x00 drivers ok to use in Ubuntu? (for a linksys usb wireless card)
[06:05] <Stormx2> whonicca: VNC?
[06:05] <juwenfei> Myzrael , I tried mplayer and XMMS, no use...
[06:05] <deathnall> if u dont tkae risks
[06:05] <Myzrael> just run sudo andthentypethecommand here
[06:05] <deathnall> so i cant run root?
[06:05] <ShackJack> py_geek: Network Monitor ?
[06:05] <Myzrael> So you want to run apt-get as root just run sudo apt-get
[06:05] <cura> sudo -s
[06:05] <Myzrael> you can run root but it's pointless
[06:05] <Stormx2> me sighs
[06:06] <Stormx2> !sudo
[06:06] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:06] <py_geek> shackJack: yup
[06:06] <Stormx2> Everyone who doesn't understand it, read that page.
[06:06] <ShackJack> py_geek: nm-applet from command line... add to session startup programs..
[06:06] <Myzrael> There is a reason in ubuntu that root is not the default way
[06:06] <deathnall> so its pointl;ess running root for wsscanner
[06:06] <Myzrael> so just sudo
[06:06] <bobsomebody> what is the command to add a module in apache on ubuntu server?
[06:06] <bobsomebody> a2enmod or something like that?
[06:06] <Stormx2> Myzrael: Listen, I don't like repeating myself. READ that page.
[06:06] <whonicca> Stormx2,  do i need to know the persons username and password? or can he invite me to control his desktop or something to that nature
[06:06] <ShackJack> py_geek: actually --- /usr/bin/nm-applet --sm-disable
[06:07] <Myzrael> Stormx2 it was not my question
[06:07] <Myzrael> I know how to run as root or how to sudo etc
[06:07] <Stormx2> whonicca: Depends on his settings. Windows actually uses a different protocol for Remote Assistance. Give me a few minutes.
[06:07] <Myzrael> ;)
[06:07] <Stormx2> Oh.
[06:07] <whonicca> Stormx2, thankyou
[06:07] <Stormx2> Hah.
[06:07] <MreX>  i've made a script in /etc/init.d which is supposed to run some other script. then ran update-rc.d myscript defaults, and checked the rc.X links. Everything is executable, but on boot, the script is not run - why?
[06:07] <killruana> Hello
[06:07] <bobsomebody> nm i got it
[06:07] <Stormx2> I'm kinda tired Myzrael. In my mind, the "There is" was "Is there"
[06:07] <ShackJack> !hi | killruana
[06:07] <deathnall> ok all i got was this
[06:07] <deathnall> deathnall@deathnall-desktop:~$ iwlist wlan0 scan
[06:07] <ubotu> killruana: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:07] <deathnall> wlan0     Interface doesn't support scanning.
[06:07] <Stormx2> Myzrael: Many apologies.
[06:07] <Myzrael> Only once did I need to know the actual root passwd so I changed it.
[06:07] <Myzrael> hehe np
[06:08] <MreX> the /etc/init.d/myscript is #!/bin/sh [newline]  /home/myuser/scriptToRun
[06:08] <westguy> I have read the link on sudo, but to a non command train user is not easy
[06:08] <killruana> Please, do you test my web server ? http://s1.darkpirates.fr/c.php?uid=31326
[06:08] <westguy> can someone help
[06:08] <CommanderCool> my external ntfs drive wont mount, i'm supposed to use 'force' option, help plz
[06:08] <Myzrael> I like the fact that root is not used in ubuntu normally :) sudo is fine
[06:08] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??
[06:08] <bulmer> westguy you have to persevere..be a bit patient to learn
[06:08] <deathnall> ok can i guess on the common word used "root". its like admin for windows?
[06:08] <ShackJack> westguy: It's just sudo commandname options     ..in a terminal :)
[06:08] <westguy> can you help me Myzrael
[06:08] <Myzrael> westguy , it's easy you just type sudo nameoftheprogramorthingyouwanttodohere and that's it
[06:08] <Stormx2> westguy: Okay, here's the jist. When you want to run something as root, you put "sudo" before the command.
[06:08] <cura> CommanderCool: mount is a command you have to run as "root", sudo
[06:09] <deathnall> ahh ok lets see
[06:09] <Stormx2> westguy: if what you are running is a graphical application, you use "gksudo"
[06:09] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??
[06:09] <Myzrael> So let's say you want to run apt-get as root. You type sudo apt-get
[06:09] <CommanderCool> cura: that's all right
[06:09] <Myzrael> then you will be asked for your passwd and that's it
[06:09] <westguy> I am trying to install sun java
[06:09] <py_geek> shackjack: i'm sorry, im still getting the hang of the terminal, what do I type?
[06:09] <Stormx2> !java | westguy
[06:09] <ubotu> westguy: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[06:10] <ShackJack> py_geek: Not terminal -- add to session starup programs -- Preferences -> Sessions -- (check to see its not there already)
[06:10] <Myzrael> !root
[06:10] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[06:10] <westguy> blur
[06:10] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??
[06:10] <Stormx2> westguy: Run this: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[06:10] <Stormx2> westguy: Enter YOUR password when prompted.
[06:10] <mahrellon> Hi, I'll try to make this my last question instead of pestering you guys every day lol. I want to install Xubuntu instead of Ubuntu but want to keep most of my settings. What folders should I copy to my external HD if I want to achieve that?
[06:10] <Myzrael> he could better use Synaptic
[06:10] <westguy> stormx2 I just type that...?
[06:10] <Myzrael> easier for a noob most of the times
[06:10] <Stormx2> mahrellon: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[06:10] <CommanderCool> help plz! my external ntfs drive cannot be mounted
[06:10] <deathnall> ok so i tried this command sudo iwlist scanning and it just keeps saying interface doesnt support scanning. wtf am i doing wrong lol
[06:10] <Stormx2> westguy: Into terminal, yes.
[06:11] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config && sudo ntfsconfig
[06:11] <mahrellon> Stormx2: Thanks but it still doesn't look the same as the real Xubuntu dist :(
[06:11] <mpiric> firefox?
[06:11] <Stormx2> mahrellon: yeah, it does o.O
[06:11] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??
[06:11] <Lunar_Lamp> I have an unusual problem.  Here is my xorg.conf set up for dual monitor (working perfectly) - however, I'm not sure how to edit it to go back to single monitor.  http://paste.stgraber.org/2274
[06:11] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: i did that
[06:11] <Stormx2> mahrellon: it's exactly the same settings / packages. Why wouldn't it?
[06:11] <ShackJack> mahrellon: You have to select Xubunu from sessions when loggin in...
[06:11] <py_geek> shackjack: where's the location of network monitor, or where should it be around?
[06:11] <deathnall> ok guys is there anywhere i can get help for my problem please?
[06:11] <westguy> Stormx2 : use my account password write?
[06:11] <ericmoogle> Hmmmm I think flaviocpontes left, can anybody help me where he left off with my CD drive problem?
[06:11] <Stormx2> deathnall: Here? ubuntuforums.org ?
[06:12] <mahrellon> Stormx2: It does? Then I'll give it a try again. It could be me installing just some packages through Synaptics or something...I had a fever at the time lol -_-
[06:12] <Stormx2> westguy: Right.
[06:12] <deathnall> thnx storm
[06:12] <ShackJack> py_geek: It's where I said before... try running in terminal first... but you want to add to session startup progs if not htere alreayd to start automatically....
[06:12] <westguy> can tell me what that command is doing?
[06:12] <mahrellon> ShackJack; Stormx2: Thanks you guys. I'll try it =)
[06:12] <ShackJack> westguy: installing java...
[06:12] <Myzrael> sudo (gives you root priviliges) apt-get (runs apt-get) install (tells apt-get to install) and then the name of the package

[06:13] <westguy> E: Broken packages
[06:13] <Stormx2> westguy: Yeah, I'll explain it. "sudo" gives you root, as we've discussed. "apt-get" is a package managing application - it managers what is installed on your computer. "install" is what you're telling apt-get to do. "sun-java6-jre" is the package you're installing.

[06:15] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??

[06:16] <ericmoogle> 3.230514]  sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 44x/44x cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray <--- Doesnt this mean that ubuntu should be recognizing my drive as a CD burner and not just a DVD ROM?
[06:16] <Romnous> is there any way to make a linux server act as a domain controller of some sort??
[06:16] <Romnous> or to synchronize folders between a linux computer and a windows computer in a network?
[06:17] <mahrellon> It's working
[06:17] <mahrellon> Is it safe to uninstall Gnome now? (Like sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop or something?)
[06:17] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: Did you run through ntfs-config and configure your NTFS partition to be mounted?
[06:17] <ShackJack> Romnous: there's rsync ;)
[06:17] <Stormx2> mahrellon: That probably wouldn't do it.
[06:17] <Romnous> that's a terminal command right?
[06:17] <westguy> Stormx2 after installing do I need to save it?
[06:17] <CommanderCool> Stromx2: ntfs read-write works fine, but not with my external drive
[06:17] <Karti> Hi all, does anyone know the address of the ubuntu pgp key server so  I can add it to my list. Many thanks
[06:17] <bulmer> Romnous: not that i know of...is it just for storage not for execution right?
[06:17] <Stormx2> westguy: Save what?
[06:18] <ShackJack> mahrellon: Not sure if it's ubuntu-desktop to uninstall...
[06:18] <mahrellon> Stormx2: Ah, well I'll google it then. I don't wanna bother you guys to much :P. Thx for everything so far :)
[06:18] <westguy> the java installation I just did
[06:18] <Romnous> i want to make a /desktop/ folder synchronize with a folder on the linux server
[06:18] <Stormx2> ubuntu-desktop wouldn't do it.
[06:18] <mahrellon> ShackJack: And you too m8. Thanks =)
[06:18] <ShackJack> mahrellon: Yep np
[06:18] <mahrellon> =)
[06:18] <bulmer> Romnous: define what do you mean by synchronize ?

[06:19] <mpiric> ShackJack: any change in about;config that may help
[06:19] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: I thought it was purely an NTFS issue. sudo fdisk -l. Does ubuntu see the drive?
[06:19] <Romnous> let's say i have a linux server as a gateway, and i have a windows computer which logs on, grabs /desktop/ folder contents and update it's own /desktop/ folder
[06:19] <ShackJack> mpiric: No - it is a FF issue

[06:21] <killaz> hi Ubuntu
[06:21] <r12aq> Hey all -- i'm wanting to run update-manager outside of GNOME in fluxbox.  i thought update-manager had a systray icon i could swallow into something like stalonetray --- is that not so?  only running update-manager as-is provides no systray plugin.
[06:22] <ericmoogle> Hi, can somebody help me get my CD-RW working?
[06:22] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: how to solve that?
[06:22] <Borat> hey, does anyone know how to make the terminal font colored? like make the name of your PC in soandso@box a different color?
[06:22] <ShackJack> r12aq: You can always run from command line --- sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude -f upgrade  ;)
[06:22] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: Is windows installed on this NTFS partition?
[06:22] <Romnous> you can't use ltsp-windows-clients right?
[06:22] <CommanderCool> Stromx2: no, data only
[06:22] <ShackJack> Borat: Yep - check out Edit->Current Profile
[06:22] <Romnous> i want windows computers to use a linux server as domain controller and grab all profile information from it
[06:23] <Romnous> like the desktop/my documents contents
[06:23] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs && sudo ntfs-fix /dev/yourpartition
[06:23] <Borat> ShackJack, i must be missing it, which tab?
[06:23] <Romnous> it's the same as having a windows server 2003, but i want it to be linux, because that's a better OS :)
[06:23] <bulmer> r12aq:  take a look at dpkg-????  those are the command line behind synaptic or update manager
[06:23] <ShackJack> Borat: In gnome-terminal ?
[06:24] <Borat> yes
[06:24] <ShackJack> Borat: Edit -> Current Profile -> Colors Tab
[06:24] <Stormx2> bulmer: He quit.
[06:24] <Romnous> can anyone please help me out with this :(
[06:24] <deathnall> what is the software called for netstumbler?
[06:24] <Stormx2> Romnous: Try ubuntuforums.org
[06:24] <bulmer> Romnous: you have to dig up info on samba
[06:25] <BeCkY> hello
[06:25] <Romnous> yuh, but i want those folders to synchronize between 2 computers
[06:25] <Borat> ShackJack, but i want it to change the color of the name, and everything else has its own colors

[06:25] <ShackJack> Borat: Eh?
[06:25] <ericmoogle> Hey Storm, Can you help me with my CD-RW problem when you get freed up from the other questions?
[06:25] <BeCkY> umm..
[06:25] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: it claims to be successful but it is not

[06:26] <Stormx2> ericmoogle: Eek. I've had no experience with that kinda thing. Try ubuntuforums.org
[06:26] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Which one are you looking for?
[06:26] <ericmoogle> O.K. Thanks!
[06:26] <ShackJack> Borat: Everything is in that profile submenu - background colors, etc...
[06:26] <BeCkY> #linuxmint.com...irc i think
[06:27] <Stormx2> BeCkY: #ubuntu is a long way off that ;-)
[06:27] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, any ideas ?
[06:27] <threethirty> at the risk of sounding like a complete n00b, what does the ! | thing mean

[06:27] <wib> xp*
[06:28] <py_geek> shackjack?
[06:28] <PriceChild> threethirty, ubotu is a bot, the !foo calls a factoid, then the | makes ubotu prefix the factoid with someone else's name
[06:28] <ShackJack> py_geek: Eh?
[06:28] <threethirty> ahhh, ok ty
[06:28] <scottd> Romnous: What's the trouble?
[06:28] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab, svn co http://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/zimbra-xtras/trunk/ zimbra-xtras
[06:28] <PriceChild> threethirty, did you see ubotu speak afterwards?

[06:28] <py_geek> shackjack: I had  the nm-applet --sm-disable thing already in the startup programs, and i have added the applet to the top panel, but I don't see the thing where it will let me choose which network I want like I had before...
[06:28] <ubotu> tux is the Linux Mascot - http://www.isc.tamu.edu/~lewing/linux/
[06:28] <Romnous> i want to use a linux computer as a sort of domain controller
[06:28] <ShackJack> BeCkY: Whether you need help, or you just want to come for a chat. The IRC channel is ready. The server is irc.spotchat.org (standard port 6667) and the channel name: #linuxmint.com
[06:28] <Romnous> in a windows network
[06:28] <mpiric> Beky: i was in Linux Mint there are not that many people
[06:28] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/viewvc/zimbra-xtras/trunk'
[06:29] <Pretor1ab> svn: PROPFIND of '/viewvc/zimbra-xtras/trunk': 301 Moved (http://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net)
[06:29] <Romnous> so windows computers download their desktop/my documents data from a linux computer
[06:29] <ShackJack> py_geek: Right click-> About does it say nm-applet? does it say
[06:29] <BeCkY> shackjack : do u know how to get it?
[06:29] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: Try it without the "trunk" bit.
[06:29] <scottd> Romnous: What version of ubuntu ?
[06:29] <ShackJack> BeCkY: got to set up that server in your IM proggie then connect
[06:29] <py_geek> shackjack: it says- Network Monitor 2.12.1
[06:29] <Romnous> feisty 7.04
[06:30] <mpiric> Beky:  Servage.net then #linuxmint
[06:30] <scottd> Romnous: Just do a simple setup file and printer sharing turned on, and maybe static ips
[06:30] <ShackJack> py_geek: I think you want network manager ?  Start that from terminal... and see if appears in panel
[06:30] <Pretor1ab> ok brb
[06:30] <Burlynn> isnt there a page in the wiki thats kind of the 'what to install once your up and running' type page?
[06:30] <Romnous> scottd: i got file and printer sharing on, but what now lol??
[06:30] <ShackJack> Burlynn: Check out ubuntuguide.org :)
[06:30] <Stormx2> Burlynn: Not really, because people use ubuntu for different things.
[06:31] <Burlynn> ShackJack, thanks
[06:31] <Stormx2> ShackJack: Have we begun recommending ubuntu guide?
[06:31] <py_geek> shackjack: how do I do that?
[06:31] <scottd> Romnous: If you have file and printer sharing on, you can just go to places_>network on ubuntu
[06:31] <Romnous> scottd: i need the windows computers to grab data from the linux-computer on startup, and write to it on shutdown, like synchronizing
[06:31] <BeCkY> shackjack : see the window i opened?
[06:31] <ShackJack> Stormx2: No necessarily, but it has a lot of common/popular things ppl are lookinig for...
[06:31] <ShackJack> BeCkY: eh?
[06:31] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2,  same error::  svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/viewvc/zimbra-xtras'
[06:31] <Pretor1ab> svn: PROPFIND of '/viewvc/zimbra-xtras': 301 Moved (http://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net)
[06:32] <scottd> Romnous: Well you might want start with ten years of computer science follwed with years of testing code
[06:32] <BeCkY> shackjack : I opened a private chat for us 2 cause theres so many people here
[06:32] <HSorgYves> what should i use to allow a user to run 1 programm with root permissions? sudo? something else?
[06:32] <scottd> Romnous: What exactly are you trying to do?
[06:32] <Romnous> lol there must be a way to synchronize folders between a linux and a windows computer right ?!
[06:32] <wib> Romnous: isn't that what a windows server is for? :)
[06:32] <py_geek> ShackJack- how do I do that?
[06:32] <ShackJack> BeCkY: Thanks, but not good etiquette unless you ask first... You should be able to setup in your IM progg... that server.. then connect ot channel...
[06:33] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: when i try to mount the drive with "force" option, it tells me, that he failed to access mountpoint: no such file or dir
[06:33] <Romnous> i want to have it as a linux server, because it's also the network's gateway. linux is more secure than windows, so i'm using linux as the gateway.
[06:33] <ShackJack> py_geek: Open terminal and type that command for nm-applet...
[06:33] <BeCkY> shackjack : please talk on that conversation i dont get anything ur saying!
[06:33] <scottd> Romnous: Why the auto read/writes from windows though?
[06:34] <ShackJack> BeCkY: Don't have it -- and what I said before.... Set up server in your IM proggie accounts then connect to channel - consult your IM's forum or IRC for more info...
[06:34] <poningru> Romnous: use rsync
[06:34] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: Have you created the mountpoint?
[06:34] <poningru> !rsync Romnous
[06:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync romnous - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:34] <poningru> !rsync | Romnous
[06:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:34] <py_geek> ShackJack: I type it and the terminal just sits there, with the cursor on a blank line.
[06:34] <Romnous> scottd: because i don't think there's a way to use a linux computer to exactly simulate a windows server 2003. so i'm using file syncing as a alternative
[06:34] <ShackJack> py_geek: Nothing new appears in gnome panel?
[06:34] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: how?
[06:35] <wib> Romnous: in our company we have a small business server which does all that and put it behind a linux firewall to make it secure
[06:35] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: svn co https://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/zimbra-xtras zimbra-xtras
[06:35] <wib> a linuc router, that is
[06:35] <BeCkY> shackjack : I don't know what u mean..im not that old and i dont get big words like that!
[06:35] <scottd> Romnous: Try poningru's rsync maybe.
[06:35] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: sudo mkdir /your/mount/point
[06:35] <py_geek> ShackJack- nope. (Gnome panel meaning the top panel?)
[06:35] <ShackJack> BeCkY: Sorry, I can't help you, then.
[06:35] <Romnous> scottd: but is that one capable of cross-network synchronizing?
[06:35] <BeCkY> dammit
[06:35] <ShackJack> py_geek: Where ever - top/bottom...
[06:35] <poningru> Romnous: ofcourse
[06:35] <py_geek> ShackJack: nope
[06:36] <Romnous> poningru: you have an example??
[06:36] <BeCkY> can anyone help me?
[06:36] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, thats it!!

[06:37] <Stormx2> BeCkY: What IRC client do you use?
[06:37] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: No, it'll just become empty.
[06:37] <py_geek> shackjack?
[06:38] <ShackJack> O.K.  I gotta go get some exercise... It's a beautiful day out...
[06:38] <BeCkY> stormx2 : I'm so sorry..but i don't think im as old as u guys and i don't get half of the stuff ur saying!

[06:38] <poningru> anyone need help?
[06:38] <Romnous> bulmer: doesn't seem to promising to me :/
[06:38] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: all that junk...
[06:38] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Well I'm 16, and I understood the term IRC client years ago.
[06:38] <Stormx2> BeCkY: What app are you using to talk to us, right now?
[06:38] <ShackJack> Stormx2: They didn't have IM where I was 16 :)
[06:38] <BeCkY> stormx2 : well im 12
[06:39] <bulmer> Romnous: it shows how to install LTSP, then a link to install samba
[06:39] <Stormx2> ShackJack: hehe.
[06:39] <BeCkY> and im a girl
[06:39] <py_geek> ShackJack: lol
[06:39] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Being a girl has nothing to do with it.
[06:39] <scottd> BeCkY: What program are you using to connect to freenode> irc?
[06:39] <Romnous> bulmer: yah i know, but that doesn't synchronize right?
[06:39] <Stormx2> BeCkY: What app are you using to talk to us, right now?
[06:39] <sebrock> I need help, when I boot my NFS mounts says failed, but when I go to the dir it is mounted. And this slows down boot? Does anyone know what this is?
[06:39] <py_geek> BeCkY: did you install ubuntu yourself?
[06:39] <ShackJack> Later y'all -- sorrry py_geek gotta go but maybe someone else can help...
[06:39] <py_geek> ShackJack: its ok. =P
[06:39] <bulmer> Romnous: well it doesnt off the bat, so one has to write a script in window (wsh?) to write to samba i gather
[06:39] <bulmer> Romnous: which windows os do you have?
[06:40] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Did your parents really name you BeCkY with a capital C and Y? I'm so sorry...
[06:40] <attunix> Hi. I just installed KDE with "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop," but how do I remove GNOME and all the GNOME apps?
[06:40] <Romnous> bulmer: windows xp professional, and home
[06:40] <scottd> Stormx2: That's wrong and hilarious
[06:40] <BeCkY> stormx2 : no :P my name is rebecca and my nickname is becky..but i like writing it like that
[06:40] <Stormx2> attunix: That might be a job for #kubuntu
[06:40] <threethirty> attunix: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop
[06:40] <Nullset> DO i need to update my ubuntu using apt-get
[06:40] <py_geek> BeCkY: did you install ubuntu on your computer yourself?
[06:40] <scottd> sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop?
[06:40] <CommanderCool> /q
[06:41] <BeCkY> py_geek :yes
[06:41] <Nutubuntu> attunix,  http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde
[06:41] <sebsebseb> I want to upgrade  Feisty to the latest Gutsy alpha,  so  I run the get update command open up the updater and yeah,  however upgrading to Gutsy is not an option for me here.  I need to turn something on so that it becomes an option or?
[06:41] <py_geek> BeCkY: I'm Impressed
[06:41] <threethirty> nullset: you only NED to if the update notifier tells you there is a reason to do so
[06:41] <attunix> Nutubuntu: thanks for that :)
[06:41] <Stormx2> scottd: Wouldn't work. gnome-desktop depends on the parts of ubuntu, but the parts of ubuntu don't depend on ubuntu-desktop :(
[06:41] <sebsebseb> I want to upgrade  Feisty to the latest Gutsy alpha,  so  I run the get update command open up the updater and yeah,  however upgrading to Gutsy is not an option for me here.  I need to turn something on so that it becomes an option or?
[06:41] <xeniter_> hi all
[06:41] <xeniter_> does gaim have webcam support?
[06:41] <bulmer> Romnous: well with XP, you have to write a script to make the synchronization automatic, with AT or somekind of taskscheduler/manager
[06:41] <BeCkY> py_geek : thanku :)
[06:41] <mpiric> Linux Mint irc.spotchat.org (standard port 6667) and the channel name: #linuxmint.com
[06:41] <Nutubuntu> attunix,  y/w
[06:41] <sebsebseb> no  Gaim does not have web cam suppourt
[06:41] <sebsebseb> AMSN does though
[06:42] <py_geek> Well i'm off to the forums!
[06:42] <Nullset> I have isntalled dapper and dont wish to upgrade to edgy or feisty. Should i allow updates or not ??
[06:42] <dr_willis> mpiric,  using LinuxMint right now. :)
[06:42] <Stormx2> !upgrade | sebsebseb
[06:42] <ubotu> sebsebseb: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:42] <scottd> Well if you have to, take screenshots of the progs it will remove, and reinstall them when finished
[06:42] <BeCkY> but who can help me now?
[06:42] <threethirty> sebsebseb: did you change your sources list
[06:42] <Romnous> bulmer: isn't their ANY way to just synchronize folders between linux and windows
[06:42] <Stormx2> sebsebseb: The are instructions for command-line updating there.
[06:42] <xeniter_> my webcam has a green screen on kopete has someone a idea?
[06:42] <sebsebseb> nope  haven't changed anything
[06:42] <dr_willis> Romnous,  i think theres rsync for windows that can do it
[06:42] <westguy> Hi, if want to install macromedia flash player what command to use
[06:42] <hak111> kopete showing this for webcam. How can I fix it? http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/5093/snapshot1yt7.png  Webcam is working fine with ekiga
[06:42] <dr_willis> !flash
[06:42] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:42] <Romnous> dr_willis: for windows?
[06:42] <Stormx2> sebsebseb: The jist of it is: change all references of "feisty" to "gutsy" in /etc/apt/sources.list then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:43] <Nullset> please someone answer me ?
[06:43] <scottd> BeCkY: Join a different channel that doesn't have as much distracting chatter
[06:43] <BeCkY> please will someone atleast pertend to care about me
[06:43] <bulmer> Romnous: anything behind those you click has some kind of a script or command to do it for you..i already suggest AT and taskmanager
[06:43] <threethirty> sebsebseb: you need to go into /etc/apt/ and find the file source.list
[06:43] <dr_willis> Romnous,  i seem to recall some articals mentioning it.. but ive never used it.
[06:43] <boyam> !ask | BeCkY
[06:43] <ubotu> BeCkY: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:43] <BeCkY> I DID
[06:43] <Stormx2> Nullset: Allow updates.
[06:43] <mpiric> BeCky: go to SpotChat and  the channel name: #linuxmint.com
[06:43] <Stormx2> Nullset: It won't upgrade you to automatically.
[06:43] <sebsebseb> Storm2:  ah ha now I remember how I upgraded  Breezy to Dapper and Edgy to FEisty and that in the past.  ah ha need to edit that file.  it's been a while I forgot :d
[06:43] <Romnous> hmm :/
[06:43] <sebsebseb> thanks
[06:43] <scottd> BeCkY: Do you want help or just attention
[06:43] <dr_willis> Romnous,  you could mount the linux dir onto windows with samba, and then use about any windows tools to sync the 2 dirs.
[06:43] <threethirty> sebsebseb: np
[06:43] <Romnous> dr_willis you sure that works?
[06:44] <westguy> ubotu : can I use in terminal " sudo apt-get install xxxxx
[06:44] <BeCkY> scottd : help :P
[06:44] <Romnous> dr_willis: i'ma try it out
[06:44] <poningru> westguy: yes you can
[06:44] <dr_willis> Romnous,  i just drag/drop one to the other at the end of the day. :)
[06:44] <Stormx2> westguy: You're talking to a bot.
[06:44] <scottd> BeCkY: What is your problem that you are having?
[06:44] <westguy> but what name for flash? understand java is jre...
[06:44] <poningru> Romnous: just freakin use rsync will ya
[06:44] <dr_willis> Romnous,  im sure theres higher-tech solutions then what i am doing.
[06:44] <Nullset> one other question, i have just one account. the password to login is the password to sudo. should i make another account with a different password and delete this one
[06:44] <westguy> what is bot?
[06:45] <dr_willis> Romnous,  like poningru  said. :)
[06:45] <Nullset> I mean, is the account password same as the password for getting root access
[06:45] <dr_willis> roBOT
[06:45] <Stormx2> Nullset: Why would you do that?
[06:45] <Romnous> poningru: just freaking tell me if it's possible to use rsync cross-network
[06:45] <Nullset> erm, i am just too much security concious
[06:45] <westguy> Stormx2 are upi a bot?
[06:45] <jmchaffie> Hey all... My new nvidia card worked great for 4 hours, now when I boot, it just goes to black. You can blindly login and get startup sounds, but no visible screen. I am right now in an "Alt-F1" session using a shell irc... any help?
[06:45] <Stormx2> Nullset: Well, the only way someone can use sudo is if they know your password.
[06:45] <poningru> Romnous: I told you that already
[06:45] <Nullset> if someone gets access to my password, he wont get access to root
[06:45] <bulmer> Nullset: then do not forget to update /etc/sudoers or else your new user will not be a member of the "sudo"-able users
[06:45] <poningru> yes its posible
[06:45] <xtknight> Romnous, what does cross-network mean?  rsync is used to sync the kernel servers, for example
[06:46] <Stormx2> Nullset: And if you were security-concious, then you'd tell no-one your password.
[06:46] <BeCkY> scottd : i used to have linux mint and i was on irc spotchat and i had it on ubuntu but i i reinstalled ubuntu and i can't find it anymore
[06:46] <westguy> Stormx2 : what is the technical name for flash player
[06:46] <Romnous> xtknight: to use it across the network
[06:46] <Stormx2> !flash | westguy
[06:46] <bulmer> Nullset: right they would not have access to root, but at same time you dont have anyway to be root to do updates
[06:46] <ubotu> westguy: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:46] <dirk_> Hi together
[06:46] <xtknight> Romnous, well obviously this doesnt clarify anything
[06:46] <xtknight> Romnous|TESTING, across a LAN?
[06:46] <scottd> BeCkY: Are you on xchat now?
[06:47] <BeCkY> scottd : what is xchat?
[06:47] <Nullset> well, say someone hacks in my comp etc etc and gets the password, then if i have a different password for root, then the other guy wont be able to get root access
[06:47] <xtknight> Romnous|TESTING, i dont see why rsync shouldnt work on both the LAN and WAN
[06:47] <scottd> BeCkY: Type //join #xchat
[06:47] <attunix> scottd: there's only one /
[06:47] <Nullset> maybe i am just getting paranoid lol!
[06:47] <scottd> BeCkY: With only one slash
[06:47] <bulmer> xtknight: he wanted a repository to do an automatic update during his shutdown and boot up..
[06:47] <BeCkY> /join #xchat
[06:47] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Listen. For 10 minutes now, people have been asking you what program you are using right now to talk to us.
[06:47] <poningru> Nullset: you dont have to worry about it since root is not accessible
[06:47] <poningru> unless you make it accessible
[06:47] <Stormx2> BeCkY: When, if ever, are you planning to tell us?
[06:47] <bulmer> xtknight: windows files that is..not linux
[06:47] <poningru> this config is more secure
[06:47] <PriceChild> Stormx2, becky is on xchat-gnome
[06:47] <scottd> BeCkY: What program are you using right now!?
[06:47] <poningru> since the 'hacker' doesnt know your default username
[06:47] <Stormx2> PriceChild: <BeCkY> /join #xchat
[06:47] <PriceChild> scottd, becky is on xchat-gnome
[06:48] <Stormx2> PriceChild: Doesn't look like it.
[06:48] <BeCkY> HUH???
[06:48] <sebsebseb> BeCkY:  xchat is an IRC client program  that you can use to chat here
[06:48] <PriceChild> Stormx2, according to the ctcp version then he/she is.
[06:48] <Nullset> Can i rename my username
[06:48] <scottd> BeCkY: Do you know what a program is?
[06:48] <xtknight> either it's a troll or she probably doesn't even know what this channel is.  she just clicked on Xchat to get some attention, it just soudned good..
[06:48] <xtknight> cmon
[06:48] <PriceChild> Nullset, /nick newnick
[06:48] <Nullset> okay
[06:48] <BeCkY> scottd : yes
[06:48] <westguy> I use this cmd : sudo apt-get install flash, but couldn't find package
[06:48] <OD> how do you reverse a dual boot system? I have a hard drive in an external case with Ubuntu on it, and windows xp home on the internal drive. how do I revert everything to single boot?
[06:48] <scottd> BeCkY: What other channel are you connected to?
[06:48] <poningru> Nullset: your username in ubuntu? or in this channel?
[06:48] <Nullset> PriceChild : not on irc but on ubuntu
[06:48] <jmchaffie> Anyone... I am stuck w/ shell only and am having trouble keeping up in here... any ideas why a new 7200gt would have issues after a few hours even after a new re-install?
[06:48] <BeCkY> cottd : non right now
[06:48] <sebrock> I need help, when I boot my NFS mounts says failed, but when I go to the dir it is mounted. And this slows down boot? Does anyone know what this is?
[06:48] <Nullset> lol
[06:49] <BeCkY> scottd *
[06:49] <Stormx2> scottd: Just #ubuntu
[06:49] <sebsebseb> sebrock:  sebrock hummmmmm what a name?
[06:49] <jmchaffie> *7600gt
[06:49] <scottd> PriceChild: Thanks
[06:49] <Nullset> I want to know how to change my username on ubuntu lol
[06:49] <poningru> Nullset: hold on looking
[06:49] <PriceChild> Nullset, ahh ok... erm I'm not sure really... Its easy to make a new user (add to the admin group) and then copy settings... but not sure about changing existing username.
[06:49] <IdNotFound> westguy: if you want Macromedia Flash, it's called flashplugin-nonfree
[06:49] <Stormx2> Nullset: You should have set it in the install? ;-)
[06:49] <OD> ext. is usb and internal is pata .
[06:49] <sebrock> sebsebseb :D
[06:49] <Nullset> well yeah, but now i want to change it
[06:50] <Stormx2> Nullset: System > Administration > Users & Groups
[06:50] <sebsebseb> Adobe flash now since Adobe brought Macromedia
[06:50] <BeCkY> scottd : At the top it says #ubuntu
[06:50] <poningru> Nullset: go to system->admin->user and groups
[06:50] <poningru> and then click on your username
[06:50] <poningru> and properties
[06:50] <IdNotFound> sebsebseb: yeah, sorry... not used to calling it Adobe Flash yet :)
[06:50] <dirk_> Could someone help me? I have an partition /media/daten. Today I installed ubuntu new. I wanted to copy my music to this partition. No rights to write. SO I changed the right under root with chmod 777 /media/daten. Now I can write on this partiton. But now then I want to open a file for example in my home directory is it light grey int the background an I can't open it. If I use the shell, e.g. with apt-get install file. I get the message that the file is
[06:50] <dirk_>  not available. But with ls -l I saw the file. What had I done?
[06:50] <sebrock> sebsebseb *bought not brought
[06:50] <poningru> then in under user name change it
[06:50] <Ashfire908> i'm having trouble running rsync
[06:50] <sebsebseb> sebrock:  whatever :d
[06:50] <scottd> BeCkY: Do you know how to join another channel??
[06:50] <BeCkY> scottd : not really
[06:50] <xtknight> hm xchat doesn't respond to CTCP version?
[06:50] <sebrock> anyway, why is NFS saying failed upon boot but clearly it mounts anyway????
[06:51] <Stormx2> dirk_: apt-get doesn't move files. It installs packages.
[06:51] <IceLink> hi
[06:51] <PriceChild> sebrock, nfs isn't supported under ubuntu is it?
[06:51] <dirk_> I know
[06:51] <PriceChild> scottd, that's enough.
[06:51] <poningru> dirk_: apt-get install is to install software
[06:51] <Ashfire908> every time i rsync, it spits out errors. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31812/
[06:51] <poningru> to open files its cd filename
[06:51] <westguy> okok wondering where the package is downloaded from?
[06:51] <scottd> PriceChild enough what?
[06:51] <aryr> hello all
[06:51] <Dromar> BeCkY,  type "/join #the-channel"
[06:51] <BeCkY> scottd : whats the street thing for?
[06:51] <threethirty> hello aryr
[06:51] <sebrock> PriceChild com on... NFS is not supported ? LOL
[06:51] <dirk_> But my problem is after that I done what I discribe I can't work with any files in my directory
[06:51] <BeCkY> dromar : in here or in the terminal
[06:51] <IndyGunFreak> "/join #indygunfreak"
[06:51] <xtknight> of course it is
[06:51] <Stormx2> poningru: No. That changes working directory.
[06:52] <scottd> BeCkY: Do you know how to use synaptic package manager or a terminal
[06:52] <scottd> ?
[06:52] <poningru> ...
[06:52] <IndyGunFreak> BeCkY: here, but w/o quotes
[06:52] <Dromar> BeCkY, here ^^ it's a xchat's commande
[06:52] <PriceChild> xtknight, is it? :)
[06:52] <xtknight> PriceChild, it's linux ;)
[06:52] <PriceChild> xtknight, pleasant surprise.
[06:52] <xtknight> PriceChild, nfs should be supported everywhere, on all unix systems, right?
[06:52] <PriceChild> xtknight, hehe I didn't know... what about nfs+ or w/e it is?
[06:52] <poningru> Stormx2: you gotta keep it in the same wording as file manager
[06:52] <Enselic> Does anyone know of a good quota setup tutorial, preferably for Ubuntu?
[06:52] <poningru> dont confuse them
[06:52] <xtknight> PriceChild, maybe not officially by canonical but that's another story
[06:52] <PriceChild> xtknight, right :)

[06:52] <IceLink> i've go a midi-file and want to open it with timidity but special parameters, so i wanted it to open with an .sh-file which starts timidity with these parameters, but the filename itself misses, is there a possibility to use the file name inside an .sh ?
[06:52] <Stormx2> poningru: What you said is completely incorrect.
[06:52] <poningru> Stormx2: so as not to confuse the guy
[06:53] <aryr> is there a gd noob guide to getting tar.gz unzipped & installed ?

[06:56] <westguy> rambo3 : I am using apple powerMac G4 dual processor 1.25
[06:56] <Stormx2> Enselic, IceLink, this would be best in #bash
[06:57] <rambo3> westguy, what kernel is that ?
[06:57] <IceLink> Enselic: so if nautilus opens a file, it sets the file name as first parameter
[06:57] <Stormx2> !flashplugin-nonfree
[06:57] <threethirty> rambo3: thats the PPC kernal
[06:57] <Enselic> IceLink: that's probably the default, yes
