[04:15] <the_mug> bur[n] er: home.interfaces ... work.interfaces ... etc.
[04:15] <screechingcat> sc0tt: ive heard a lott about a prog called istanbul
[04:15] <VigoFuse_> Would 2 installs of different versions conflict?
[04:15] <sc0tt> screechingcat: I've checked that out and its not too great
[04:16] <screechingcat> VigoFuse_: what program ?
[04:16] <bur[n] er> the_mug: have you seriously tried network-manager?  it's great and set to be included in Gnome 2.18.  http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/
[04:16] <verbose> is it bad to run fsck -y /dev/hda1 if hda1 is ext3 instead of ext2?

[04:18] <sc0tt> bur[n] er
[04:18] <sc0tt> :]
[04:18] <screechingcat> VigoFuse_: you can do 2 seperate installs of edgy and fesity on the same hard disk and everything will be fine. but feisty is NOT recommended for end-users.
[04:18] <VigoFuse_> Citek: I am not on my Ubuntu, but I think just right click,add workspace
[04:18] <IdleOne> Citek: 4 workspaces arent enough?
[04:18] <Citek> sc0tt: Right click what?
[04:18] <Citek> Idleone: I only have 2!
[04:18] <IdleOne> Citek:  right click on the workspace
[04:19] <VigoFuse_> screenchingcat: Was going to test it on 2 HDs, one box.
[04:19] <belfegorash> i am a beginner..pls answer:D..where are the partitions..i am using ubuntu
[04:19] <Citek> Idleone: Scott: Thank you alot! For anyone else wondering - Right Click Workspace > Prefrencess
[04:19] <sc0tt> you're welcome
[04:19] <IdleOne> no problem
[04:19] <cassed> hi guys total linux noob here... can anyone help me, im trying to get mame to work on my box and ive run into a wall
[04:19] <screechingcat> VigoFuse_: it wont conflict. but fesity is likley to break very often. use it just for testing and bug reporting
[04:19] <sc0tt> i'd suggest running into a pillow, rather than a wall :P
[04:20] <the_mug> bur[n] er: what is the package name for network-admin so I can uninstall it?
[04:20] <VigoFuse_> Sounds like FUN! :-)
[04:20] <cassed> msg me if u think u can help
[04:20] <Citek> IdleOne: Do you know anything about WINE?
[04:20] <VigoFuse_> !wine
[04:20] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:20] <the_mug> bur[n] er: I tried dpkg -l | grep network-admin but it returned nothing
[04:20] <cassed> anyone?
[04:20] <IdleOne> cassed:  describe your problem in here and perhaps someone can help you and anybody else who may be reading:)
[04:20] <cassed> !mame
[04:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mame - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:20] <IdleOne> Citek:  nope not alot
[04:21] <Guychi> Hi. I just installed Ubuntu 6.06. I am surprised that I can't find Django in the package manager. Am I looking in the wrong place, or what?
[04:21] <IdleOne> !repos
[04:21] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[04:21] <cassed> Well... i used synaps package manager to install x-mame and i used the add/remove programs thing to install kxmame and now i dont know what to do... kxmame isnt working... the directorys where x-mame should be located according to kxmame dont exist :(
[04:22] <IdleOne> Guychi: read what ubotu  just said
[04:22] <cassed> Synaptic package manager**
[04:23] <VigoFuse_> cassed: Have you looked in the terminal to see if any packages still reside . and maybe a --purge would help if it is needed?
[04:23] <cassed> man... total noob i know 3 commands in terminal sudo apt-get install sudo aptitiude search and sudo aptitude install
[04:24] <Citek> Anyone: When I go to "Applications > Add/Remove" are all those programs to install up to date everyday? Or can I make them that way if not?
[04:24] <belfegorash> ok pls tell me where is should search my partition...i have 12 mg free on desktop but...
[04:24] <screechingcat> Citek: whenever there are upgrades available, an orange buttone will show up in the top bar
[04:25] <Citek> screechingcat: Thank you sir!
[04:25] <cassed> has anyone here installed and got kxmame to work?
[04:25] <screechingcat> Citek: May the force be with you
[04:25] <will__> guys, quick question about WINE
[04:26] <will__> it obviously installed and running ok
[04:26] <DjViper> help! I crashed X when I installed nvidia driver, how do I fix it?
[04:26] <IdleOne> it tastes good!
[04:26] <will__> infact, nm, its time I was out of here
[04:26] <will__> bbl :D
[04:26] <cassed> anyone here installed and got xmame to work?
[04:27] <trappist> cassed: yes, but it complains about all my roms
[04:27] <cassed> trappist did you use kxmame as the interface for xmame?
[04:28] <trappist> cassed: no, I didn't know it existed until you mentioned it a minute ago
[04:28] <JJAUA> what's the best way to share files in a dualboot system with XP and Ubuntu? Use FAT16, FAT32 or Ext2?
[04:28] <trappist> JJAUA: fat32
[04:28] <cassed> trappist how did u run xmame if not with a frontend?
[04:28] <VigoFuse__> K, lemee get on Ubuntu and see if the error of updates for me is fixed...back in a bit
[04:29] <JJAUA> trappist... why's that? Ext is not fully accesible in windows with ext2fds?
[04:29] <trappist> cassed: with command line options
[04:29] <cassed> trappist, you are leet
[04:29] <derFlo> is there any program for copying music onto my sony walkman mp3 player? it uses a database, so i cannot just copy in nautilus
[04:29] <cassed> too leet for me infact
[04:30] <trappist> JJAUA: it's been a long time since I tried to access an ext2 fs from windows, but when I did it destroyed the filesystem.  there are probably better solutions now.
[04:30] <djmccormick> hey guys
[04:30] <Randakar> I'd love for windows to get ext3 support, it'd make my life so much easier ;-)
[04:30] <djmccormick> how can i set up a static ip on my ubuntu 6.06 LTS command-line only box
[04:30] <belfegorash> with this program i can acces normal channel in the old mirc? or are differit?
[04:30] <cassed> Windows > Ubuntu?
[04:30] <cassed> *puts on flame proof suit*
[04:30] <swanfl> Randakar, isn't there a driver for Windows to "see" an ext3 partition?
[04:31] <apokryphos> cassed: #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat
[04:31] <derFlo> swanfl: you can use comercial software
[04:31] <Randakar> swanfl: last time I tested anything like that desktop integration for such tools was less than steller, let alone attempting to run WoW from ext3 ;-)
[04:31] <Bastian_> belfegorash xchat = mirc yes
[04:31] <derFlo> swanfl: i used norton partition magic
[04:31] <Randakar> (which is the *only* reason for me to run windows, btw)
[04:31] <trappist> Randakar: http://fs-driver.org/
[04:31] <sc0tt> xchat better than mirc
[04:31] <sc0tt> :P
[04:31] <sc0tt> is better*
[04:31] <swanfl> ok
[04:31] <IdleOne> belfegorash:  /server irc.oldnetwork.com then join the channels you want
[04:31] <belfegorash> ok i understand but in undernet there arent usual channels:(
[04:32] <DjViper> help! I crashed X when I installed nvidia driver, how do I fix it?
[04:32] <IdleOne> Bastian_:  xchat doesnt not equal mirc xchat is > mirc :)
[04:32] <derFlo> is there any program for copying music onto my sony walkman mp3 player? it uses a database, so i cannot just copy in nautilus
[04:32] <djmccormick> how can i set up a static ip on my ubuntu 6.06 LTS command-line only box
[04:32] <Randakar> trappist: that works?
[04:32] <belfegorash> ok:)
[04:32] <belfegorash> thanks
[04:32] <ZeuGiRDoR> DjViper: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:32] <Guychi> IdleOne: I read but still don't get it: how do I install django? does the null apt-cache search django mean there isn't a apckage for it?
[04:33] <Bastian_> does any one know of an antiasl script for xchat that will ignore the persont that pms me?
[04:33] <TheGateKeeper> DjViper, always a good idea to backup xorg.conf
[04:33] <mormoloc> any suggestion on a low-cost model ink-jet printer for Buntu :) ( HP, Epson, Canon)?
[04:33] <IdleOne> Guychi:  did you enable universe and multiverse in the repositories?
[04:33] <trappist> Randakar: it claims to.  never tried it.
[04:33] <trappist> Randakar: I don't use windows, and I don't use ext filesystems :)
[04:33] <MarcN> derFlo: that is why I keep the receipts for MP3s that don't show up as a USB disk ;-)
[04:34] <TheGateKeeper> mormoloc, go & find the cheapest print cartridges, then buy that make & model of printer lol
[04:35] <derFlo> MarcN: My Mp3 Player is shown as usbdisk in nautilus.
[04:35] <cyzie> in debian, we have alsaconf, in ubuntu, how do i do that ?
[04:35] <Randakar> sounds like some testing is in order ;-)
[04:35] <derFlo> but it requires dbs to play the music
[04:35] <mormoloc> TheGateKeeper
[04:35] <mormoloc> TheGateKeeper: :)
[04:36] <TheGateKeeper> cyzie, the devs have removed alsaconf
[04:36] <TheGateKeeper> !sound
[04:36] <ubotu> 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
[04:36] <respa> how do I set reboot or halt or shutdown to be accessible from normal users?
[04:36] <TheGateKeeper> cyzie, ^^^ or post a bug
[04:37] <MarcN> derFlo: I usually buy Creative mp3 players and all I do is copy the files to the device.   Inexpensive too.
[04:37] <derFlo> MarcN: i just wanna have a solution for my problem ;)
[04:37] <derFlo> MarcN: what creative player you got?
[04:37] <Guychi> IdleOne: yes, I uncommented them in the sources.list Do I have to reboot or sth for it to take effect?
[04:38] <TheGateKeeper> Guychi, no iirc do apt-get update
[04:38] <MarcN> derFlo: MuVo TX FM 128 and 512 versions
[04:38] <AlphaN3> hello!
[04:38] <derFlo> sweet
[04:39] <TheGateKeeper> Guychi, rebooting is a M$ thing
[04:39] <derFlo> MarcN: i need a bit more space for music
[04:39] <foxstrot2008> h
[04:39] <foxstrot2008> hi people
[04:39] <AlphaN3> I'm on Xfce.. wondering which package of vim should I get, between vim-gnome and vim-gtk2.
[04:39] <foxstrot2008> got a Question
[04:39] <foxstrot2008> how can I install programs in my linux
[04:39] <Guychi> do apt-get and synaptic package manager mutually exclusve?
[04:39] <foxstrot2008> im a noob
[04:40] <derFlo> Synaptic, foxstrot2008
[04:40] <foxstrot2008> then
[04:40] <derFlo> or you download .deb packages
[04:40] <foxstrot2008> i see  that
[04:40] <derFlo> you search for what you want
[04:40] <citek> Can anybody explain to me on where and how I can install windows fonts with "wine"
[04:40] <MarcN> derFlo: I just copy to the device what I'm interested in for the day.
[04:41] <AlphaN3> i thought gnome utilizes gtk2... now i'm pretty confused.
[04:41] <DjViper> phew, got it to start up again
[04:41] <MarcN> derFlo: usually in front of a laptop with headphones anyway...
[04:41] <DjViper> thanks
[04:41] <Guychi> IdleOne:  I updated the universes, multiverses, and still can't find django. what am I missing?
[04:41] <derFlo> MarcN: sometimes i am in a hurry i wouldn have time for something like that :p
[04:41] <TheGateKeeper> Guychi, Synaptic is a gui for apt-get, but you need to close synaptic to use apt-get, you could press reload to refresh your sources
[04:41] <Guychi> TheGateKeeper: did just that. still no trace of django :(
[04:41] <sproingie> why does the little update applet decide I need a dist-upgrade?
[04:41] <sproingie> does it have some way of knowing a regular upgrade will fail without a dist-upgrade?
[04:42] <TheGateKeeper> Guychi, I am in gentoo at the moment, are you running firefox?
[04:43] <Guychi> TheGateKeeper: yes
[04:43] <Guychi> TheGateKeeper: what does FF have to do with it?
[04:43] <cappicrd> tell me
[04:43] <TheGateKeeper> Guychi, it has a package search engine
[04:43] <TheGateKeeper> use it to find which repo it is in
[04:44] <DutchR_PW> sproingie: It knows that because it sees a package which depends on another package which isn't installed
[04:44] <TheGateKeeper> Guychi, using edgy or dapper, & are your repos basically the default ones?
[04:45] <sproingie> DutchR_PW: ahh i see, thanks
[04:45] <AlphaN3> Uh... >_>
[04:45] <gerd> hello everybody
[04:45] <sproingie> i've never known the *real* difference between a dist-upgrade and an upgrade
[04:45] <gerd> i need help with tainted kernel
[04:45] <Guychi> TheGateKeeper: default ones, only dapper
[04:45] <sproingie> except for that dist-upgrades can remove packages
[04:45] <AlphaN3> I'm on Xubuntu (Xfce). What do I install, between vim-gtk2 and vim-gnome? Thank you in advance!
[04:46] <DutchR_PW> that basically is the only difference. dist-upgrade can install/remove other packages, while upgrade can only upgrade installed packages
[04:46] <sod75> gerd: just ask
[04:46] <TheGateKeeper> Guychi, http://za1012001.googlepages.com/modifyingubunturepositories
[04:47] <slick_nick> hi -- i tried moving my home directory to a different partition..when i restarted, KDE told me dcopserver wasn't running because iceauth failed to lock the .ICEauthority file
[04:47] <slick_nick> i've been trying to find a fix for the last hour or so, but no luck...can anyone please help?
[04:48] <gerd> i just installed linuxant linmodem driver and booted the system and i cannot boot..kernel tainted from hsfengine udev event
[04:48] <confusco> when I'm playing Flash videos like youtube or Google video, it all loads, but plays only for a few seconds. when I move the seek bar to a different position, it starts playing for a few seconds again, and stops. anybody have an idea?
[04:48] <TheGateKeeper> slick_nick, ask in either #kubuntu or #kde
[04:48] <slick_nick> TheGateKeeper: thanks
[04:48] <TheGateKeeper> slick_nick, yw :-)
[04:48] <lele_> ciao
[04:49] <lele_> come faccio a sapere la grandezza delle mie partizioni?
[04:49] <sproingie> wow, bash completion is amazingly smart
[04:49] <sod75> gerd :tainted kernel is just a message saying it's no longer 100 free soft, shouldn't affect your ability to boot
[04:49] <DjViper> how do I figure out what sort of gfx card I have?
[04:49] <sproingie> it even knows how to complete with only modified files for 'hg revert'
[04:49] <tundejeg> has joined ubuntu
[04:49] <cratel2> does the linux-686 kernel work with an Athlon 64 processor?
[04:49] <tundejeg> cratel2
[04:49] <sod75> DjViper: open your pc and read
[04:49] <tundejeg> may i ask u a quetion
[04:50] <DjViper> sod75: laptop :P
[04:50] <tundejeg> question
[04:50] <citek> I am running ubuntu, I just installed "wine" i need to find the ~/.wine/drive_c/ folder,  where would this folder directory be located?
[04:50] <tundejeg> rather
[04:50] <sod75> DjViper: no sticky label then ? :)
[04:50] <tundejeg> have u ever installed oracle on ubuntu
 no i cannot boot only way i can boot is use another kernel installed
[04:50] <cratel2> tundejeg: nope. Sorry.
[04:50] <philip> big update this morning, 85.5MB
[04:50] <sod75> DjViper: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[04:50] <sproingie> cratel2: yes it works fine
[04:51] <tundejeg> ok
[04:51] <DutchR_PW> citek: it's a hidden directory located in your home directory. but if you have never ran wine, you might need to start winecfg first to generate that directory
[04:51] <Guychi> TheGateKeeper: I don't see the difference between what you sent and what I already have
[04:51] <cratel2> sproingie: thanks!
[04:51] <citek> I have ran wine, Can you please tell me where that "hidden" directory would be?
[04:51] <tundejeg> who has installed oracle on ubuntu
[04:51] <tundejeg> here
[04:51] <djmccormick> how can i make a user able to do sudo from the command line
[04:51] <DutchR_PW> press ctrl+h in nautilus
[04:51] <cratel2> citek: you described the directory exactly. Do you already know that ~ is your home directory?
 no i cannot boot only way i can boot is use another kernel installed
[04:52] <citek> Cratel2: No I didnt, Todays my first day on linux, Maybe I didn't run WINE than? But i have installed something with it and it supposedly made a Drive C:\, Any other idea's on where this could be located?
[04:53] <boriskuit> hi, any1 here?
[04:54] <sod75> gerd: sorry but I don't have a clue
[04:54] <nagashi> hi
[04:54] <DutchR_PW> citek: you should run winecfg first, which will create that directory (and open a config window, which you can close then)
[04:55] <nagashi> guys how can I upgrade from drapper to edgy?
[04:55] <gerd> <sod75 can u look into my dmesg log if i send it to u
[04:55] <defrysk> !upgrade | nagashi
[04:55] <ubotu> nagashi: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:55] <boriskuit> fist type: sudo apt-get upgrade
[04:55] <citek> DutchR_PW: Thank you, I Think im catching on now!
[04:55] <boriskuit> than type: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:55] <derFlo> there ONE thing that prevents my of using ONLY linux..
[04:55] <DutchR_PW> citek: You're welcome
[04:55] <respa> how do I set reboot or halt or shutdown to be accessible from normal users?
[04:55] <sod75> gerd: use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and ask here
[04:56] <vandenoever> how can i transfer the list of packages from one machine to another?
[04:56] <ReinH> Hi guys, about to install ubuntu on my laptop, what would you suggest for partition sizes? 2xRAM for the swap, 10GB for root, another 20GBish for /home?
[04:56] <nagashi> k thanks
[04:56] <vandenoever> i've two machines on which i need the same software
[04:56] <boriskuit> guys, if i start theme-manger and i load a theme and there is no preview i cant apply it
[04:56] <Randakar> h3sp4wn: no, not related
[04:56] <boriskuit> how can i solve this problem?
[04:56] <Randakar> at least, not in any way that I can see
[04:57] <citek> DutchR_PW: Even after that, Still no Wine folder in my Home Directory?
[04:57] <DutchR_PW> have you enabled View hidden folders in your file manager?
[04:58] <ReinH> Guys, partition sizes? Any suggestions?
[04:58] <citek> DutchR_PW: Prob.  Thanks man!
[04:59] <DutchR_PW> y/w
[04:59] <confusco> when I'm playing Flash videos like youtube or Google video, it all loads, but plays only for a few seconds. when I move the seek bar to a different position, it starts playing for a few seconds again, and stops. anybody have an idea?
[05:00] <i7ch> hi, i'm on using Firefox/2.0 (Ubuntu-edgy) and it keeps crashing if i try to load united.com. the only i extension i have is adblock plus. i've tried disabling it and restarting firefox, but the problem continues to occur.
[05:00] <i7ch> anyone experience this?
[05:01] <gerd> <sod75 i have pasted it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35789/
[05:02] <ReinH> Guys, any help with partitioning for a new ubuntu install please?
[05:02] <i7ch> ReinH, what sort of help do you need?
[05:02] <gerd> <sod75 i have pasted it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35789/
[05:02] <apokryphos> !partition
[05:02] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[05:02] <ReinH> I'd like any suggestions for the size of my root partition and swap partition, and any other tips
[05:02] <apokryphos> !gparted
[05:02] <ubotu> gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[05:03] <ReinH> apokryphos: yes, I'm aware of both of those, thank you
[05:03] <apokryphos> ReinH: root partition is good at around 8 gigs. Swap varies, but a gig is more than enough. Everything else for /home
[05:03] <gerd> <Rein H> make a wap patition of 256MB and and / partition of approx. 10GB will be fine
[05:03] <ReinH> apokryphos: thanks, which should be primary partitions and which extended? I've done this before but I can't remember of hand
[05:03] <citek> DutchR_PW: I'm trying to install Microsoft fonts, I installed them, but now I need to put them in my "C:\Windows\Fonts" from wine, Any idea on how I can recover where these files were installed?
[05:04] <i7ch> citek, find / -iname "*.ttf"
[05:04] <apokryphos> ReinH: root is generally primary, but it doesn't really matter
[05:04] <gerd> <sod75 i have pasted it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35789/
[05:04] <Daviey> Hi, how can i make my output 16:9 (and not stretch the desktop)?
[05:04] <DutchR_PW> or go to fonts:/// in your file manager to view the installed fonts in linux, then you can copy them to .wine/drive_c/windows/fonts
[05:05] <sod75> gerd: the taints kernel message is nothing like I said, but "exec /usr/sbin/hsfconfig returned -1" is the error. no idea what's wrong though
[05:05] <citek> DutchR_PW: Where is my File Manger, Im so new to this!
[05:05] <gerd> actually i have removed hsf completley but still getting it at boot why
[05:06] <djmccormick> how do i give someone the ability to sudo?
[05:06] <DutchR_PW> where you found the .wine directory
[05:06] <ReinH> So is the rule I've heard about making your swap = 1.5x RAM not accurate?
[05:06] <apokryphos> djmccormick: sudo adduser someusername admin
[05:06] <nolimitsoya> djmccormick, add their name to the sudoers file :)
[05:06] <apokryphos> ReinH: it's not accurate at all. That was only a valuable principle many many years ago
[05:06] <sod75> gerd : it still loads the modules
[05:06] <ReinH> This laptop has 2GB, I don't want the swap to be too small.
[05:06] <apokryphos> it completely depends on how you use your computer. But 1 a gig is mroe than enough; even 500 or so should be fine.
[05:07] <apokryphos> ah
[05:07] <gerd> where are these modules since i have removed the package completely?
[05:07] <apokryphos> ReinH: put around 300 meg then, I'd say.
[05:07] <citek> DutchR_PW: There is no filemanager or fonts:/// in there.
[05:07] <ReinH> only 300meg? o.0
[05:07] <apokryphos> ReinH: I was presuming you'd have at least 80 gigs :P
[05:07] <ReinH> apokryphos: oh, I mean 2GB RAM
[05:07] <DutchR_PW> or you can press Alt+F2, type fonts:/// and press enter
[05:07] <apokryphos> ReinH: ohhhh
[05:07] <DutchR_PW> or press Ctrl+L in the file manager
[05:08] <citek> DutchR_PW: You are the man!!!
[05:08] <nolimitsoya> ReinH, you shouldnt need any swapspace with that amount of ram
[05:08] <ReinH> I've got 2x100GB HDDs but I'm only going to be using 40GB on one of them
[05:08] <apokryphos> ReinH: put as much as you like. It won't make too much difference. More than a gig won't really be useful though
[05:08] <Dimensions> hiii every one .. what does /dev/null do ??
[05:08] <kinga> hi there everybody. I have a connection problem on login. I need to manually disable and re-enable my interface in order to get Internet connectivity. Any idea how to overcome this?
[05:08] <ReinH> nolimitsoya: Makes sense...
[05:08] <nolimitsoya> ReinH, i seriously doubt that you even need that much ram, if you have to ask how much swapspace you need :)
[05:08] <i7ch> Dimensions, nothing. it's a virtual device that does nothing with all the data inputted to it.
[05:08] <jrib> Dimensions: think of it like a black hole
[05:08] <nolimitsoya> ReinH, sell me some and buy yourself a beer ;D
[05:08] <i7ch> Dimensions, or a garbage chute
[05:09] <Daviey> ReinH, It is normally recommend to have 50% of your ram as swap.  So 1gb
[05:09] <ReinH> nolimitsoya: Oh, I do for graphic design, music production, but I don't do that in linux :)
[05:09] <ReinH> nolimitsoya: I think I could get at least 3 beers
 hsfconfig is not even in the exec path..does it it have to do something in udev cionf
[05:09] <ReinH> But... inflation is a bitch
[05:09] <gerd> conf
[05:09] <nolimitsoya> ReinH, ill give you 4 coronas for 1gb. deal?
[05:09] <Daviey> ReinH, Inflation; depends if it is for a blow up doll
[05:09] <ReinH> nolimitsoya: sure, where do I mail it? :p
[05:09] <Dimensions> i7ch:  then what does this line means in the crontab ... * * * * * /tmp/.psy/y2kupdate >/dev/null 2>&1
[05:09] <A3n> configured network card correctly with ndiswrapper (driver present, hardware present) and configured wireless device with iwconfig and found my Access Point with "iwlist eth2(my wireless device) scan" , but somehow dhclient cant find the DHCPOFFER's so i cant connect, i dont know what to do...
[05:10] <sod75> gerd: tried doing a purge of the package ?
[05:10] <gerd> yes
[05:10] <i7ch> Dimensions, it means that it runs the y2kupdate program, but instead of displaying the output of the program or saving it in a file, it just throws it out
[05:10] <sod75> no idea about udev
[05:11] <gouki> A3n: Are you sure the DHCP server isn't out of IP's?
[05:11] <i7ch> Dimensions, in other words, it means "just run y2kupdate, but i don't care what it outputs, just run it quietly and let it do what it wants"
[05:11] <A3n> i'm sure
[05:11] <sod75> gerd: search your /lib/modules for hsf* maybe ?
[05:11] <gouki> A3n: Is it a router?
[05:11] <A3n> gouki:from 50 - 58 and there is only 2 pc's connected atm
[05:11] <A3n> gouki:yes
[05:11] <Dimensions> ahhan ... but i donno what is this y2kupdate ...
[05:11] <gouki> A3n: Linksys?
[05:11] <sod75> gerd: or check the contecnt of the package to see what it did
[05:12] <ragamuffin> Can I repartition an existing ntfs drive using ubuntu and without losing datat?
[05:12] <gouki> ragamuffin: I recommend using gParted Live CD
[05:12] <nolimitsoya> ragamuffin, in theory, yes.
[05:12] <kinga> ragamuffin: yes no problem
[05:12] <gerd> <sod75i even uninstalled the kernel and resticted drivers but didnot purge thes
[05:12] <ReinH> ragamuffin: yes, I've done it before and I'm doing it right now.
[05:12] <A3n> gouki:sitecom WL-121v2 chipset Intersil ISL Prism Javelin/Oxbow
[05:12] <i7ch> Dimensions, hold on, i'll look it up
[05:13] <nolimitsoya> ragamuffin, in practice, you need to be aware of a few caveats, and you should have a backup
[05:13] <ReinH> gParted Live CD is nice, some ubuntu discs include gParted as well
[05:13] <ReinH> But, yes, backup, backup, backup
[05:13] <A3n> gouki:Xbow*
[05:13] <gouki> A3n: There is not type of MAC filtering enabled?
[05:13] <gouki> *no type
[05:13] <A3n> ow i hope not
[05:13] <A3n> gouki:is there a default mac filtering?
[05:13] <ReinH> o.0
[05:14] <gouki> A3n: No, there isn't
[05:14] <gerd> with another downgraded kernel i am able to boot and i have no hsf installed
[05:14] <MitchM> jono ping
[05:14] <A3n> gouki:then i suppose there isnt any enabled
[05:14] <Dimensions> thanks i7ch
[05:14] <gouki> A3n: Is the NIC configured to DHCP instead of static IP configuration?
[05:14] <i7ch> Dimensions, something to do with apache, i think. look up y2kupdate in google and read up.
[05:15] <A3n> gouki:dont know about that
[05:15] <ragamuffin> When I choose to resize an ntfs partition, the first partition or the latter one is for the extisting data?
[05:15] <gouki> A3n: Is this a wireless or wired NIC?
[05:16] <A3n> gouki:well wireless i suppose
[05:16] <gouki> A3n: Does it have a cable connected to it? (=
[05:16] <sod75> gerd: longshot, checked if they aren't in /etc/modules ?
[05:16] <Grem> hi
[05:16] <A3n> gouki:no, orelse i wouldnt be using ndiswrapper lol :p
[05:17] <ragamuffin> I have a 30 gb ntfs drive which I want to carve and make another partition. But when I choose to do it, the partitioner of ubunut asks for a minimum of 18 gb for the new partion
[05:17] <gouki> A3n: Sorry. Didn't read that part. I recommend you give wifi-radar a try. It will let you configure all the necessary fields for a given WiFi connection
[05:17] <A3n> i'ts probably something with DHCP client not being configured correctly, but i just dont know what
[05:18] <baxter_kylie> Hello. I'm a little bit confused about where log files are stored. I'm having strange freezes of the system that take more than 1 reset to resolve. Where would I look for relevant log files?
[05:18] <sod75> gerd: or maybe some init script in /etc/rc.d ...
[05:18] <A3n> gouki:k
[05:18] <TheGateKeeper> ragamuffin, you need a minimum of about 5gb, the gparted livecd might be more helpfull
[05:18] <gouki> A3n: There is isn't much of a configuration to router DHCP server. Just lease time, # of IPs and network
[05:18] <blk^> why i cant use "make" to install a programm ?

[05:37] <blk^> i had a look and didnt see naything about make

[05:46] <ninix> hi
[05:47] <ninix> i got a big problem.... i can do nothing now.... my system is broken... cause of libpthread.so.0
[05:47] <ninix> what can i do...
[05:47] <A3n> ninix:format?
[05:48] <nolimitsoya> ninix, you could try being specific. :)
[05:48] <ninix> nolimitsoya: ok :P
[05:48] <ProN00b> ninix, did you replace that file somehow ?
[05:48] <ninix> ls: error while loading shared librairies: /lib/libpthread.so.0
[05:49] <ProN00b> ninix, you propably corrupted that file somehow
[05:49] <engla> like with prelink?
[05:49] <engla> ninix: you could try and fix it with the live cd, replacing that file. But that could be difficult
[05:50] <mypapit> nurullah?
[05:50] <ninix> i tryed to fix the problem of an application .... i just cp /lib32/libpthrea.... to /lib64/..
[05:50] <mypapit> hmmm
[05:50] <nolimitsoya> engla, why would it?
[05:50] <engla> nolimitsoya: be what?
[05:50] <nolimitsoya> engla, difficult :)
[05:50] <gilgamesh84> hi all
[05:50] <engla> nolimitsoya: dunno. User error? misunderestimating the problem
[05:50] <engla> as they say
[05:51] <gimmulf> Is there any tool for making flash on linu without any emulator?
[05:51] <claviola> I'm trying to burn a data DVD for a friend but Nautilus tells me that it won't be compatible with Windows due to the accents.  I tried to go ahead and do it with growisofs and the accents did indeed come out garbled.  Has anyone come across such an issue before?
[05:51] <nolimitsoya> claviola, just remove the accents ;)
[05:51] <claviola> The filenames are using UTF-8.
[05:52] <claviola> nolimitsoya: that's not an option...
[05:52] <QwertyM> my F-Spot Photo Manager doesnt open, and it came default with the Ubuntu Edgy installation!
[05:52] <nolimitsoya> claviola, then youll have to accept that windows cant read it.filenames on windows cant contain accent
[05:52] <nolimitsoya> *s
[05:52] <claviola> nolimitsoya: uh, yes they can.
[05:53] <nolimitsoya> claviola, no, utf chars with accents turn out garbage
[05:53] <scylax> hi. how can i configure /usr/bin/mail so it uses a SMTP server which is installed in another machine?
[05:53] <engla> ninix: can't you undo that copy. I don't know about the problems of the two lib dirs lib32 and lib64 though
[05:54] <Imrahil> I am getting a new thinkpad t60. would the ipw3945 be a better choice than the atheros? range and power consumption are priorities.
[05:54] <ninix> can't undo... i gonna boot on the live cd...
[05:54] <nolimitsoya> engla,ninix, booting the live cd, mounting and cp:ing the file from the live environment would be far easier
[05:54] <Solarion> when will the splice() system call become documented?  It should be in the edgy kernel (2.6.17), but I can't find the manpage on it.
[05:54] <claviola> nolimitsoya: I've seen data CD/DVDs before that had accents.  it must be possible.
[05:54] <ninix> i hope it's gonna work
[05:54] <engla> nolimitsoya: right
[05:54] <claviola> like, windows users manage to burn their stuff with accents.
[05:54] <nolimitsoya> claviola, then you need an other char encoding :) just as nautilus told you.
[05:55] <claviola> nolimitsoya: I tried both ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8.
[05:55] <nolimitsoya> claviola, well thats strange...
[05:55] <claviola> it seems odd that nautilus would just naturally crap out on UTF-8 filenames, though
[05:55] <claviola> since it is, if I recall correctly, the default

[06:08] <Kawaii-Panda> bluefox83: no ps/2. it works before, but its strange it doesnt now.
[06:08] <scylax> philo23 if i were you i'd copy that error message and google for it
[06:09] <bluefox83> Kawaii-Panda, make sure it's enabled in your bios
[06:09] <philo23> scylax: i just checked on synaptic package manager, i have libuuid installed
[06:09] <Kawaii-Panda> bluefox83: but i can't even access the bios.
[06:09] <jamesbrose> Hey, vmware or vmware-player wont install properly on edgy
[06:09] <Gigabit> http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1554344&forum_id=404241  please help me
[06:09] <bluefox83> Kawaii-Panda, try a new keyboard?
[06:09] <QwertyM> my F-Spot Photo Manager doesnt open, and it came default with the Ubuntu Edgy installation!
[06:10] <LjL> jamesbrose: like what?
[06:10] <Kawaii-Panda> bluefox83: thats what im thinking of. maybe usb next time, but anyway, im wondering how this could've happened.
[06:10] <jamesbrose> It just keeps running the configuration, LkL
[06:10] <LjL> jamesbrose: what configuration?
[06:10] <OneSeventeen> Is it possible to install a command-line-only version of OpenOffice.org for an Ubuntu 6.06 Server?  And what about the same for Inkscape?
[06:10] <bluefox83> Kawaii-Panda, you could have had a very small power surge that made your bios lose it's settings
[06:10] <LjL> OneSeventeen: no.
[06:10] <jamesbrose> LkL: setting up the subnet or something
[06:10] <jamesbrose> keeps looping
[06:11] <LjL> jamesbrose: are you using the vmware player from the repos?

[06:11] <i7ch> hi. i have to recompile a vanilla kernel to avoid a problem with my sata controller. is there a specific patch to apply, to get the graphical boot? or is it something that the kernel loads from the hd by virtue of a boot switch?
[06:11] <OneSeventeen> LjL: thanks
[06:11] <php-freak> I know how to get all files, but it don't download the directories too?
[06:11] <aconbere|work> When using rdesktop since the move to edgy, I get horrible tearing when scrolling up in any windows inside rdesktop.  Any ideas?
[06:11] <bluefox83> Kawaii-Panda, honestly..you need to try another keyboard..see if you can't get another one to work...
[06:11] <jamesbrose> Now configuring VMware Player.  (This may take some time...)

[06:12] <LjL> jamesbrose: pastebin the output of "ifconfig" please
[06:12] <Kawaii-Panda> ill try that. ok thanks for the help bluefox83. i'll also try resetting the bios by taking odd the cmos battery for awhile.
[06:12] <jamesbrose> ok
[06:12] <philo23> any one any ideas why i can create a new partition?
[06:12] <Imrahil> aconbere|work, rdesktop is just slow
[06:12] <UbuntuCE> hi. is there irc channel for Ubuntu Christian Edition?
[06:12] <assasukasse> when will kde4 be released?

[06:13] <boink> #ubuntu-ce ?
[06:13] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: it's not a speed issue, it's a graphics issue, I can scroll down or left or right, but going up it freaks out.  Also this wasn't an issue before upgrading to edgy.
[06:13] <Kawaii-Panda> bluefox83: hehe. ill need that. :)
[06:13] <[GuS] > Hi!
[06:13] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: I know rdesktop is slow, if I didn't have to work on windows machines I wouldn't :'(
[06:14] <UbuntuCE> boink:  nope
[06:14] <jamesbrose> LjL, and the error that keeps loopin' : http://rafb.net/paste/results/jRyLJ352.html
[06:14] <Kawaii-Panda> maybe someone just got to the bios and accidentally changed the ps/2 settings.
[06:14] <LjL> jamesbrose, did you try installing some other vmware flavor from a tar file, before trying the one from the repos?
[06:15] <dustin> whats the default root pass? i dont remember setting one
[06:15] <Imrahil> aconbere|work, sorry didn't mean to be glib. as to your issue, never seen that behavior. did you check launchpad?
[06:15] <nolimitsoya> !root | dustin
[06:15] <ubotu> dustin: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:15] <jamesbrose> Ive tryed both
[06:15] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: launchpad?
[06:15] <jamesbrose> neither work, LjL
[06:15] <LjL> jamesbrose: which did you try *first*?
[06:15] <philo23> i need to partition my mounted hdd, how could i go about doing it in gparted?
[06:16] <jamesbrose> repos
[06:16] <nolimitsoya> philo23, you need to unmount first
[06:16] <jamesbrose> then from the vmware website
[06:16] <Imrahil> aconbere|work, launchpad.net for bugs in ubuntu: launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu
[06:16] <philo23> nolimitsoya: but its the partition i'm currently running on, how can i unmount it if i'm using it?
[06:16] <al> philo23 : you shoud unmount partitions
[06:16] <nolimitsoya> philo23, you cant. ergo, you cant format it ;)
[06:17] <jamesbrose> LjL, repos
[06:17] <brotherJohn1234> Hi - i'm about to create a new Software-Raid (Raid 1) on 2 SATA 160GB drives. Does anybody have some information about my "optimized" size for the "chunk size"  ? 4KB seams kind of low.
[06:17] <philo23> :(
[06:17] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: I haven't I'll poke around there.  Thanks
[06:17] <LjL> jamesbrose, type "dpkg -S etc/init.d/functions", outputs anything?
[06:17] <al> philo23 : go with a Knoppix LiveCD
[06:17] <jamesbrose> dpkg: *etc/init.d/functions* not found.
[06:17] <fromvega> Hello! Please, could you help-me with Squid ?
[06:17] <fromvega>  I'm getting the following error: squid: "ERROR: No running copy". I have restarted Ubuntu, removed the squid package, restarted Ubuntu again, installed the squid package again and I still receive the same error! How come? Could you help-me? Tks!
[06:17] <jamesbrose> LjL, dpkg: *etc/init.d/functions* not found.
[06:18] <philo23> al: doesnt the ubuntu live cd use it to partition the hdd to start with, would that not mean its installed on that?
[06:18] <QwertyM> !fspot
[06:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fspot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:18] <nolimitsoya> al, philo23, use the live cd instead. though i dont think that anyone who tries to repartition/format the current working partition should be doing anything on an important system...
[06:19] <LjL> jamesbrose: as i thought. that file was installed by something external (likely a separate vmware installation); i don't have it on my machine, and it's what causing the trouble with your installation, at least the trouble that can be seen from your paste.
[06:19] <al> philo23 : it should do it to...just work while your system partition is not running
[06:19] <P3L|C4N0> greetings
[06:19] <philo23> al: ok
[06:19] <jamesbrose> LjL, what do you think I should do then?
[06:19] <Imrahil> aconbere|work, looks like there are a few bugs on redraw problems in edgy
[06:19] <jamesbrose> How could I manually unistall and old version of vmware
[06:19] <PaSurf> what is with edgy eft where the software basically is working great, but when I go to open documents (pdf) or try to shut down the system it basically does not respond and has to be "choked" out and restarted?
[06:19] <LjL> jamesbrose: try "sudo apt-get --purge remove vmware-player", then remove anything related to vmware that you can find, then try again installing
[06:20] <LjL> jamesbrose, i don't know... unless they come with an uninstall script, it will be guesswork mostly
[06:20] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/rdesktop/+bug/68583
[06:20] <aconbere|work> yup
[06:20] <aconbere|work> that looks like it precisely
[06:20] <aconbere|work> :P
[06:20] <fromvega> anyone?
[06:20] <zspada15> fromvega, anyone what?
[06:21] <fromvega> zspada15: I'm with problems wih Squid. I'm getting the following error: squid: "ERROR: No running copy". I have restarted Ubuntu, removed the squid package, restarted Ubuntu again, installed the squid package again and I still receive the same error! How come? Could you help-me? Tks!
[06:21] <LjL> jamesbrose: "find /etc | grep -i vmware" and "find /usr | grep -i vmware" will probably help
[06:21] <fromvega> zspada15: could you help-me?
[06:21] <nikin> hy
[06:21] <Imrahil> aconbere|work, are you using nvidia?
[06:21] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: yup!
[06:21] <zspada15> fromvega, im not quite sure
[06:21] <zspada15> !squid
[06:21] <ubotu> squid: Internet Object Cache (WWW proxy cache). In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.1-3ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 576 kB, installed size 1524 kB
[06:21] <fromvega> zspada15: nobody is alive at #squid
[06:21] <chosi> I got a problem with my X, I suppose.... -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35791/ any ideas?
[06:21] <nikin> can someone help me to set a writable FTP directory with proFTPD
[06:22] <nikin> ?
[06:22] <zspada15> fromvega, try www.squidcache.org
[06:22] <Imrahil> aconbere|work, try using opensource nv driver to see if that happens
[06:23] <LjL> jamesbrose: also are you sure your edgy is up to date? i.e. you have edgy, edgy-updates and edgy-security enabled for restricted, main, universe and multiverse, and you ran an upgrade recently?
[06:23] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: heh If I use the opensource drivers glx craps out and I essentially have the problem but when using everyday windowing :)
[06:23] <jamesbrose> Yes
[06:23] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: I'll live with crappy rdesktop over that
[06:23] <nikin> anyone experience with rpFTPD?
[06:23] <nikin> *proFTPD
[06:24] <Imrahil> aconbere|work, yeah of course. I just meant as a means to comment results on the bug report
[06:24] <anuragJ> zspada15, err www.squid-cache.org
[06:24] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: ahhh, hmm yeah I could try that I out I suppose
[06:24] <zspada15> anuragJ, thanks
[06:24] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: but it will have to wait until I get some stuff done
[06:24] <Imrahil> aconbere|work, bugs with more traffic tend to get fixed sooner in my experience
[06:24] <aconbere|work> I'll stick around here for a while, but for now back to work
[06:25] <anuragJ> and fromvega, why you need proxies
[06:25] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: yes in mine as well :)
[06:25] <chosi> "X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168" <- ???!?
[06:25] <nikin> can then anyone suggest a good FTP server capable of managing Anonymus FTP with RW acces?

[06:25] <anuragJ> nikin, gFTP
[06:25] <A3n> all explained here:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35792/ can anyone help me with it?

[06:28] <anuragJ> fromvega, get the source from the main site and compile.

[06:29] <elro> Hi there, is there an easy way to configure a second network card with 6.10 server?
[06:29] <zspada15> A3n, just the part with your wifi card in it
[06:29] <fromvega> anuragJ: why? it was running smoothly until something f***ed things up... squid: "ERROR: No running copy".
[06:29] <nikin> but i still could not have a writable directory
[06:30] <nolimitsoya> nikin, have you tried the guide on the wiki?
[06:30] <nikin> nolimitso: nope
[06:31] <jrib> fromvega: does squid normally start automatically on boot?
[06:31] <nolimitsoya> nikin, then please do. :) did it for me the first time round
[06:31] <fromvega> jrib: yes
[06:31] <anuragJ> fromvega, I've no idea what went wrong, untill until you say me what you have done.
[06:31] <jrib> fromvega: what do you do to get that error?
[06:31] <nikin> nolimitso: can you give me the adress of it?
[06:31] <nolimitsoya> nikin, one moment

[06:36] <zspada15> A3n, oh
[06:36] <anuragJ> nikin, and http://cr.yp.to/publicfile.html

[06:48] <nolimitsoya> nikin, no :) i dont have physical access to that box, and not ssh either at present
[06:49] <nikin> nolimitso: bl for me
[06:49] <ubun> my sister and her bf who know almost nothing about computers, but have used windows to surf the web, said they want ubuntu on their pc after using it on my computer last night heh. they said it's "smooth" and easier to use
[06:49] <nolimitsoya> ubun, good :)
[06:49] <ubun> i guess it's easier to use in some senses once it's already set upt, but i know ill be the one setting it up =p
[06:50] <allmanj> anyone here who knows the internals of debian-installer?
[06:50] <nolimitsoya> ubun, not much to set up realy... just install and use :)
[06:50] <nolimitsoya> allmanj, define 'internals' :)
[06:50] <xored> if i use a software peace ( FCKeditor ) which is published under lgpl and build an web application with it, without chaning it, do i have to publish the whole code of the application "public" or only the part of FCKeditor, which maybe have changed ?
[06:51] <Doow> what's the command to try and repair a system? (package-wise)
[06:51] <ubun> nolimitosoya, true for just the web surfing that they'll mainly be doing and they have web email so that kills 2 birds
[06:51] <allmanj> i'm attempting to make a modified version of the alternate cd to minimise the amount of user interaction needed. i want it not to scan a mirror as im not guaranteed network connectivity
[06:51] <ubun> i should put it on an xbox and make it like a webtv
[06:51] <nolimitsoya> xored, youd have to release the code of anything that can be thought of as deriveative work
[06:52] <allmanj> i've been trawling around and somehow the .disk/base_installable is important. I think i need to make choose-mirror happy to just install from cd
[06:52] <allmanj> but nothing i try seems to work
[06:52] <allmanj> anyone know anything about this?
[06:52] <gostview> hi all, anyone who can explain to me this error message when I try to unistall trough synaptic spamd E: spampd: the underprocess pre-removal script got error 4
[06:52] <nolimitsoya> allmanj, couldnt you use the oem install mode?
[06:52] <Bakefy> nolimitsoya, my version (6.10 Edgy) is different
[06:53] <nolimitsoya> Bakefy, from what?
[06:53] <allmanj> nolimitsoya: ? i don't know what you mean?
[06:53] <Bakefy> The instructions
[06:53] <nolimitsoya> allmanj, when booting the alternate cd, there is an option for oem installs.
[06:53] <JackUK> hi everyone, I have a problem with my ATI drivers that I was wondering if someone could help me with?
[06:53] <nolimitsoya> Bakefy, then adapt them. its perfectly simple: just add the aptline to /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:54] <Bakefy> nolimitsoya, I am trying to do this the gui way, I guess I will try the text
[06:54] <allmanj> nolimitsoya: what's it supposed to do? how would it help me? Is it on dapper or just edgy?
[06:55] <wuming> how can I boot to a ubuntu partition, if my mbr covered by windows xp?
[06:55] <nolimitsoya> allmanj, i dont know about dapper, but its supposed to help create custom non interactive installs if i gotthings right

[06:56] <Thawin> hi all. I have a problem. Until today ubuntu works great for my ati9600pro with a crt monitor with vga and 1280*1024, but now, i buy a new monitor , 20"lcd with 1680*1050 res and dvi but ubuntu dont detect nothing, and i cant change to this resolution. Any idea?
[06:57] <AlphaN3> Hmph.. Can anyone tell me how I can get native-looking (i.e. themed) scrollbar in my XEmacs?
[06:57] <nolimitsoya> Thawin, 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[06:57] <nikin> nolimitso: its getting worse, i cant even connect now
[06:57] <nikin> mc
[06:57] <solem> how can i build a deb file from source? that check for deps aswel.
[06:57] <solem> :)
[06:57] <Thawin> ok, thxs. I try
[06:57] <jrib> solem: help.ubuntu.com has a guide
[06:57] <allmanj> nolimitsoya: not exactly what i want. That mode requires you to do the install first and then it bothers the user less. What i want is to customise exactly what gets installed
[06:58] <allmanj> so i can just provide a cd and i know they can't screw it up
[06:59] <drach> Hello, I have problem with raid0, system is not able to mount /dev/md0 (md0 starts without problems) during ubuntu start, I aded /dev/md0 in fstab, but after  system boot /dev/md0 is not mounted
[06:59] <solem> hum.. that looks quite advanced... i just want to make a deb fast and easy... not with diz etc
[06:59] <drkm> does anyone have a link to how i can burn ubuntu to cd to boot off it?
[07:00] <drkm> so i don't have to install it
[07:00] <Jaak_> what is the driver name of the official ati driver?
[07:00] <nolimitsoya> allmanj, you could set itup once, and then dd and copy to every other hdd :)
[07:00] <jrib> solem: for what you ask, you need to understand how debs work
[07:00] <Jaak_> right now i have Ati, the opensource one
[07:00] <bluefox83> drkm, the cds are all live, you can run them without installing
[07:00] <solem> bah... i had a link before :S
[07:00] <bluefox83> sept for the server one, and i think the alternate one
[07:00] <jrib> solem: maybe checkinstall?  This will not do what you asked however
[07:00] <Gasten> drkm: burn the lvecd and it does what u want.
[07:00] <drkm> ok thnanks
[07:00] <solem> okey.
[07:01] <solem> i used that before yes
[07:02] <aconbere|work> Imrahil: upgrading to 1.5 fixed the problem hurah! for .dep packages.

[07:04] <nikin> shit
[07:04] <nikin> sry
[07:04] <DjViper> hm, my 'font' on the logon screen is huge
[07:05] <DjViper> weird
[07:05] <DjViper> fixed the gfxcard issue tho...
[07:06] <Alakazamz0r> DjViper, check your framebuffer settings
[07:06] <Alakazamz0r> :D
[07:06] <DjViper> Alakazamz0r: where?
[07:06] <kingrayray> hey, has anybody seen this kind of behaviour with BMP? http://kingrayray.wallooza.org/bmp_bug.jpg (regarding the skin of the playlist area)
[07:06] <Alakazamz0r> DjViper, checking.
[07:07] <DjViper> Alakazamz0r: its the font used when typing in logon and pw heh
[07:07] <php-freak> Hey guys how do I download all folders through command line ftp, I know mget * gets all the files, but not the folders.
[07:07] <DjViper> its weird, like 3x normal size
[07:07] <Alakazamz0r> yeah, the GDM login screen?
[07:07] <DjViper> everything else semms ok
[07:07] <DjViper> yes
[07:07] <DjViper> seems*
[07:07] <kling0n> DjViper:  might be becasue the resolution is too low
[07:07] <kingrayray> or dpi
[07:07] <kling0n> because
[07:07] <DjViper> 1920x1440 is too low?
[07:07] <Alakazamz0r> yeah, or DPI would be something to check into.
[07:07] <Alakazamz0r> No, that wouldn't be.
[07:08] <DjViper> dpi, how do I check taht
[07:08] <kling0n> DjViper:  is the resolution correct once you've logged in?
[07:08] <DjViper> kling0n: res is ok even in gdm
[07:08] <kling0n> ok
[07:08] <DjViper> only the font is messed up
[07:09] <kingrayray> i don't remember how to fix it, its a setting in xorg.conf regarding your physical screen size
[07:09] <kingrayray> hold on a second, DjViper
[07:09] <kingrayray> i'll get you a relevant link
[07:09] <Alakazamz0r> yeah, kingrayray's on it.
[07:10] <DjViper> ok

[07:15] <Skyrail> I'm trying to compile this program using a compiler (I think that's what it is doing) using scons as that is what it says I should use...problem is its looking for a qt library and i haven't a clue what it's going on about
[07:15] <nikin> can anyone suggest an eaasy to configure ftp server for an Anonymus FTP?
[07:16] <Alakazamz0r> nikin, proftpd
[07:17] <nikin> Alakazamz: i trried it but i had no luck with it, first i could not set an upload dir after it just didnt accepted anonymus connections anymore
[07:17] <Skyrail> any idea?
[07:18] <teicah> say i removed lftp from default edgy.. how do i re-install it from the cd?
[07:19] <Pelo> good afternoon folks
[07:19] <Pelo> anyone know a ubuntu/linux version of speedfan ?   an app to monitor computer temperature and adjust fan speed according to settings ?
[07:20] <Arclithion> Pelo: I've heard of such a program, but I forget what it was called.  :/
[07:21] <DeamonminD> hello evryone
[07:21] <DeamonminD> can anyone tell me how to install gtk themes?
[07:22] <DeamonminD> i m new to linux
[07:22] <Pelo> DeamonminD,  did you already dl the theme from somewhere ?
[07:22] <teicah> DeamonminD: system|preferences|theme .. install theme
[07:22] <sysdoc> DeamonminD, welcome to the REAL world....lol
[07:22] <Amorgin> ou.
[07:23] <DeamonminD> i heard we need to compile something .. someone on dalnet tolf me
[07:23] <CydeWeys> Is this supposed to happen?  I installed a server version of Ubuntu 6.10 from CD and it didn't come with gcc installed?!?!
[07:23] <DeamonminD> told*
[07:23] <teicah> or unpack them and dump'em in ~/.themes
[07:23] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: why would you want gcc on a server?
[07:24] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: Is that a rhetorical question?
[07:24] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: many security guru would frown upon this
[07:24] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: Really?
[07:24] <DeamonminD> all i have to download the gtk theme and put it in themes folder?
[07:24] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: I dunno, I find it hard to compile a lot of stuff I need to run as server applications when I don't have a compiler ..
[07:24] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: with gcc on a server, malicious coode can do even more malicious things..
[07:25] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: for servers, the admin precompiles somewhere else......
[07:25] <teicah> DeamonminD: unpack it first
[07:25] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: Okay, let me explain a bit more.  I only have two Linux machines.  Both are "servers" in the sense that they sit somewhere and I only access them remotely.
[07:25] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: but paranoids would not use a kernel with modules enabled on a server, so it's another story probably.
[07:25] <DeamonminD> teicah: after unpack i m supposed to put it in themes folder?
[07:26] <teicah> hidden folder ".themes"  note the preceding dot.. in your home directory.. yes
[07:26] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: to make a long story short, you probably just need to install "buid-essentials"
[07:26] <Pelo> DeamonminD,  you probably don'T even have to unpack and the install feature will likely put it in the right folder itself
[07:27] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: E: Couldn't find package buid-essentials
[07:27] <teicah> then go to system|preferences|theme and you should be able to see/use your new theme
[07:27] <CydeWeys> You mean build-essentialls?
[07:27] <DeamonminD> Thanx :D
[07:27] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: yes, sorry for the typo
[07:27] <Pelo> CydeWeys,  no S at the end
[07:27] <CydeWeys> Okay, good, that seems to have the essentials that I need.
[07:27] <CydeWeys> gcc didn't get everything
[07:28] <teicah> DeamonminD: if you want all users to be able to use the theme.. put it in /usr/share/themes
[07:28] <DeamonminD> okies :D
[07:28] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: Thanks for that tip, I was also having problems getting SLIME to compile and now it's working.
[07:28] <Huiber1> !slime
[07:28] <ubotu> slime: Superior LISP Interaction Mode for Emacs. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:20060618-1 (edgy), package size 548 kB, installed size 1452 kB
[07:29] <CydeWeys> (Getting greeted with "Connected. Cyde, this could be the start of a beautiful program." everytime you start up SLIME is neato, too.)
[07:29] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: hmm, ok
[07:29] <fromvega> hello agin
[07:29] <fromvega> gain
[07:29] <fromvega> again
[07:29] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: SLIME is very good for writing Lisp.  If you don't write lots of Lisp, you probably don't need to worry about SLIME.
[07:29] <Skyrail> I'm trying to install/compile something but it carries on stopping as it can't find the qt library? any ideas?
[07:29] <Huiber1> we get the point
[07:29] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: no need, I'm a Java devel myself
[07:29] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: SLIME isn't available as a Ubuntu package either, which is rather annoying.  It *should* be.
[07:30] <fromvega> sorry, who was helping me with SQUID process here?
[07:30] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: Speaking of Java, which Ubuntu package do I install to get javac?
[07:30] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: ubotu says it's in edgy?
[07:30] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: I'm running 6.10
[07:30] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: then slime should be available....
[07:30] <fromvega> jrib: you
[07:30] <fromvega> jrib: are you there?
[07:31] <jrib> fromvega: me?  yes, what's up
[07:31] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: I couldn't find it.
[07:31] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: brb checking my java install
[07:31] <Huiber1> !slime > CydeWeys
[07:31] <Skyrail> anyone?
[07:31] <fromvega> jrib: I have removed squid with apt-get but when I type "ps ax | grep squid" I receive "9821 pts/1 R+ 0:00 grep squid" as the ouput. Does it mean that squid is running?
[07:32] <sysrage> no
[07:32] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: "Package slime is not available, but is referred to by another package.  This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source."
[07:32] <ubun> it's amazing that there's almost a thousand people in here and i'd say i've seen at least 95% of all questions get answered 24/7
[07:32] <DeamonminD> teicah: do u know any transparent theme for gnome?
[07:32] <jrib> fromvega: nope, that means 'grep squid' is runnning
[07:32] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: E: Package slime has no installation candidate
[07:32] <PriceChild> ubun: Don't you love the ubuntu community :)
[07:32] <ubun> =]
[07:32] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: hmmm, ubotu is lying :-(
[07:32] <CydeWeys> fromvega: Try /etc/init.d/squid stop
[07:32] <Lam_> how do i generate a new hash for xorg.conf?
[07:33] <teicah> DeamonminD: transparent? gtk theme? or metacity?  i don't think i undersatnd your q
[07:33] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: It's not a big deal, I already downloaded and compiled from CVS, and the CVS version is kept more up-to-date than the package anyway.
[07:33] <meshugga> chaps, i need assistance with ati dualhead
[07:33] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: here at home I installed sun-java5-jdb and more from the multiverse repos
[07:33] <DeamonminD> what is difference b/w gtk theme and metacity?
[07:33] <DeamonminD> :S?
[07:33] <fromvega> jrib, CydeWeys: I have executed apt-get remove squid but its folder is still there...
[07:33] <meshugga> i want to run two different x servers on each head
[07:33] <meshugga> of my thinkpad t30
[07:33] <meshugga> any hints?
[07:34] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: at work I use a version from ubuntutower.net (because then sun java was not directly available in ubuntu)
[07:34] <meshugga> i remember being an howto out there, but i miss the google magic to find it
[07:34] <DeamonminD> :(
[07:34] <teicah> gtk dresses apps .. metacity deals with window decorations (borders)
[07:34] <jrib> fromvega: you need to remove it with the --purge option:  sudo apt-get --purge remove squid, and you probably also need to remove the dependencies like squid-common
[07:34] <DeamonminD> ahan okies
[07:35] <DeamonminD> so metacity themes wud be transparent rite?
[07:35] <teicah> have you visited gnome-look.org?
[07:35] <DeamonminD> yes just entered in it
[07:36] <teicah> actually neither .. i think.. to support really transparency .. you need something like beryl .. and if you are a newbie.. you have quite a bit of reading ahead, but nothing too dificult
[07:36] <dbcalo> does anyone here know how to get cedega to run correctly on ubuntu edgy?
[07:37] <fromvega> jrib: tks, I'll try
[07:37] <DeamonminD> teicah: what is beryl?
[07:37] <teicah> check what you can do w/it http://tinyurl.com/vuyxq

[07:38] <jrib> CydeWeys: what is jdb?
[07:38] <DeamonminD> okies

[07:38] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: are you using synaptic? my ypos should not bother you that much :-)
[07:38] <dbcalo> Huiberl, it consistently crashes ubuntu for me.
[07:38] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: It's called a jdk..
[07:38] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: You typoed again :-/
[07:39] <DeamonminD> teicah: i need to download something for beryl?
[07:39] <Huiber1> dbcalo: hmmm, I installed under dapper, then upgrade to edgy latter, nevver had any probs, sorry
[07:39] <aguz> i need help with LimeWire please :S
[07:39] <CydeWeys> Huiber1: No, I'm not using Synaptic ... isn't that GUI-only?  I'm just using apt-get.
[07:39] <teicah> definately
[07:39] <CydeWeys> Anyway, now that I spelled jdk correctly I did find the package in the multiverse.
[07:40] <Huiber1> CydeWeys: yeah, I like typing fast, and allmost allways forget to speelcheck :-)

[07:50] <OneSeventeen> I am setting up an Ubuntu 6.06 LAMP server, and want to be able to use OpenOffice.org and Inkscape from the command line (which requires me to install X)  should I install X, or just start over with a standard desktop install and add Apache, PHP , and MySQL?
[07:51] <CydeWeys> DeMixx: Yeah, it's IRC stuff.  Kind of complicated and takes a lond while and human involvement on the part of IRC network ops.
[07:51] <CydeWeys> OneSeventeen: No need at all to start over, just install the additional packages you need, including X.

[07:55] <crackcorn> howdy, im using konversation in gnome because its pretty similar to mirc. the problem is when i click on links, it opens them in quanta, id rather have the links open in firefox. i have firefox set to be the preferred application for wbe browsing. any ideas?
[07:55] <Jumper> can someone answer... I am considering installing to my hard drive. I normally use Xandros. When I look at "my computer"... I see only the local home dir and root. Floppy and CD. There is no hda1 or 2 or hdb3 or hdb7

[07:56] <drkm> yeah
[07:56] <CydeWeys> crackcorn: Did you look through all of the options available in konversation?
[07:57] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, there is a big difference between filesystems and physical drives
[07:57] <crackcorn> i tried, i didnt see any setting that would let me adjust what opens the links
[07:57] <Valmarko> First line of info from glx is: ibGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b. Is it a problem?
[07:57] <Jumper> yes, but I want file manager to see both drives and all partitions. when I click /mnt is says "empty"
[07:57] <php-freak> I'm logged into my ftp
[07:58] <leviathan> somebody can help me to install a wireless card with chip rtl8185l... the ubuntu 6.10 detect and install the modules but when I active the card in System - Administration - Network these be locked
[07:58] <php-freak> and typed wget -r <dir>, but its saying invalid command
[07:58] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, i dont quite understand the problem. what do you want? be specific
[07:58] <nolimitsoya> php-freak, did you substitute <dir> for the directory you want to download ;)
[07:58] <Jumper> specific.  I want the ability to click on a "file manager" and see all pgysical drives and partitions
[07:59] <php-freak> well yea
[07:59] <php-freak> im at the ftp prompt
[07:59] <crackcorn> from what i can find, i might need to install kcontrol, do you think that would have any issues with gnome
[07:59] <Arkangel> eee
[07:59] <Arkangel> hello
[07:59] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, that wont happen. windows user, are you? read up on mountpoints
[07:59] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, linux isnot windows, in any way.
[07:59] <Jumper> no   and yes re windows user :)
[07:59] <Jumper> I use Xandros 90% of the time
[08:00] <Mr_Scorpio> Hello.
[08:00] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, you cant access physical devices. neither in windows or unix. you access partitions, and these are mounted. in windows they mount as c:/ d:/ etc, and in unix they mount as a folder of you chioce
[08:00] <Pie-rate> is there any way to remove the title bar of a window?
[08:00] <nolimitsoya> *coice
[08:00] <Jumper> I use their file manager, I see my "filesystem" and also can expand and see both physical drives and all partitions.  and copy/use files among them all
[08:00] <nolimitsoya> *h
[08:00] <Pie-rate> in gnome?
[08:00] <crackcorn> is there a way to remove openoffice without having it uninstall or break ubuntu desktop
[08:00] <LjL> php-freak, err, you don't need to be at the ftp prompt, but on a shell prompt
[08:01] <LjL> !wget
[08:01] <PriceChild> crackcorn: it doesn't matter if you uninstall ubuntu-desktop
[08:01] <ubotu> wget: retrieves files from the web. In component main, is standard. Version 1.10.2-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 226 kB, installed size 1952 kB
[08:01] <PriceChild> crackcorn: ubuntu-desktop is just a fake package, which installs everything else to make sure upgrades go well
[08:01] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, you wont get that. get used to it ;)
[08:01] <Mr_Scorpio> How do I uninstall Xgl and Compiz!?
[08:01] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, mount at a conviniet place instead
[08:01] <PriceChild> Mr_Scorpio: follow the guide you used to install them... just backwards
[08:01] <Jumper> I have it now using xandros file manager
[08:01] <php-freak> I see
[08:01] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, also, all drivermount under /media in ubuntu
[08:01] <php-freak> ljl
[08:02] <Jumper>  and similar using knoquerer id I recall name in some distro's I have looked at
[08:02] <thespore> How can I disable the login box that comes up when you try to bring the desktop back up after screensaver kicks in?
[08:02] <gop> hey
[08:02] <Jumper> ok, maybe it is there, all the "partitions"  I was looking in /mnt
[08:02] <gop> beside fs-driver is thier any other way to mount ext3 filesystem in windows
[08:02] <PriceChild> thespore: system>preferences>screensaver. its one of the checkboxes there
[08:03] <PriceChild> gop: not that i know of
[08:03] <enyc> gop: im sure ther are a few different drivers
[08:03] <gop> fs-driver don't seem to work for me
[08:03] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, but not in ubuntu, unless you start making symlinks and bookmarks. do it the right way instead of the windows-look-alike way, wich is very inefficiet anyway
[08:03] <klick> hey all, can anyone tell me why "xset s blank" doesn't blank my screen imediately?
[08:03] <arrow> hi all
[08:03] <PriceChild> gop: what's wrong with it?
[08:03] <enyc> gop: also there is 'explore2fs' but that does not 'mount' the filesystem
[08:03] <thespore> PriceChild, I don't have a screensaver item in the preferences menu :S
[08:03] <gop> what should I type in google enyc
[08:03] <Jumper> nope  /media is (empty)
[08:03] <gop> enyc oh
[08:03] <enyc> gop: not sure ;-)
[08:03] <klick> no error message is returned i figure im typing something wrong
[08:03] <PriceChild> thespore: using gnome?
[08:03] <thespore> PriceChild, yes
[08:03] <gop> PriceChild well, it won't mount my ext3 drive in windows not sure why
[08:03] <nolimitsoya> Jumper, did you boot the live dvd? then you need to mount manualy
[08:04] <thespore> PriceChild, on dapper
[08:04] <PriceChild> thespore: run gnome-screensaver-preferences
[08:04] <Jumper> ok, that is the answer I needed  stupid me expected them to be mounted
[08:04] <php-freak> okay one more question, how do I change my current folder where the wget is going to download the files to?
[08:04] <PriceChild> thespore: oh dapper... should still be the same command, but i'm probably being silly and its different
[08:04] <thespore> PriceChild, command not found
[08:04] <nolimitsoya> php-freak, itll download wherever you are at the moment
[08:04] <PriceChild> thespore: actually yeah it'll be different... they used xscreensaver in dapper
[08:04] <nolimitsoya> php-freak, just cd to another cd
[08:04] <php-freak> k
[08:04] <php-freak> now whats apt-get mean?
[08:04] <ubun> why does 'system monitor' report megabytes as "MiB" there's no 'i' in megabyte, there's no 'i' in team either
[08:05] <Jumper> actually I have used Xandros since version 2, 3 and now ver4  I have looked ober/installed dozen or three diff distro's
[08:05] <PriceChild> thespore: use autocomplete (tab) to do soemthing like xscreensaver-config

[08:05] <nolimitsoya> ubun, a mibibit is 1000000b
[08:05] <PriceChild> Jumper: then don't use it :)
[08:05] <zylche> ubun, but if there's no 'i' in the team, and 'u' aren't in the team, then no one's on the god damnned team!
[08:05] <php-freak> I see
[08:05] <ubun> well it says KiB too
[08:05] <PriceChild> Jumper: Find the distribution that is right for you :)

[08:07] <zylche> nolimitsoya, "logical"

[08:08] <jerp> I just installed a game that says it can't find a file (libstdc++.so.5).  All I find in '/usr/lib' is libstdc++.so.6  Any help would be appreciated.
[08:08] <nolimitsoya> zylche, well, the "problem" is of a logical character. its just not a problem, but a "problem"
[08:08] <PriceChild> gop: I don't know really sorry

[08:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libstdc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:09] <PriceChild> !libstdc++
[08:09] <nolimitsoya> gop, have you mounted them? theres an ext2 controller in the control panel after installation
[08:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libstdc++ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:09] <Jumper> difficult to judge without an install and use a few days... now I know my other "files" in whichever drive or partition" will be avaible, maybe I will try it
[08:09] <PriceChild> nolimitsoya: he left
[08:09] <ubun> google says mibibit is supposed to be spelled mebibit btw
[08:09] <PriceChild> jerp: just looking for you
[08:09] <jerp> thanks :)
[08:10] <nolimitsoya> ubun, might very well be. :) i find the whole thing quite silly to be honest, so ive never used the term
[08:10] <ubun> yeah
[08:11] <PriceChild> Jerp: hmm... before i search for you... maybe try copying the file to the same location but with the 5 instead? :P
[08:11] <jerp> I've got libstdc++5 in the synaptic but no ~c++.so.5
[08:11] <PriceChild> jerp: if it doesn't work, then just delete the file and we'll try something else
[08:11] <sid> I have a Windows XP machine for a teacher from my University...it's got an 80 gig hdd that is used by a windows partition(brand new machine). Is it easy to put Ubuntu on this machine?
[08:11] <nolimitsoya> sid, yes
[08:11] <ubun> extremely
[08:12] <PriceChild> sid: you can even just run off of the cd drive to test it out first
[08:12] <PriceChild> sid: won't change your harddrive
[08:12] <sid> PriceChild: right, I understand I can use it as a livecd. PriceChild but I have the windows admin here, and he does like 20 windows machines a day. And he claims nothing will resize the NTFS partition properly and it will be messed up.
[08:12] <ubun> ah the entire 80gb is used by XP? guess you gotta resize the partitions with partition magic or fips or something ive done, but should still be easy
[08:13] <sid> PriceChild: Will the NTFS work properly or have any problems?
[08:13] <jerp> PriceChild, change the name during the copy/move?
[08:13] <nolimitsoya> sid, in theory itll work, but have a backup
[08:13] <PriceChild> sid: You can read, but not write to ntfs safelt
[08:13] <PriceChild> *safely
[08:13] <nolimitsoya> PriceChild, thats not what he asked ;)
[08:13] <PriceChild> sid: you can write to ntfs... but back everything up and don't blame me if you experience data loss
[08:13] <sid> PriceChild: So what is Ubuntu going to do? Use parted to resize it?
[08:13] <sid> (edgy I'm talking about)
[08:13] <nolimitsoya> sid, yes
[08:13] <PriceChild> sid: I have bad experiences with resizing ntfs
[08:14] <PriceChild> sid: if you do resize... then defrag it first
[08:14] <PriceChild> hey Joe_CoT
[08:14] <PriceChild> jerp: yeah
[08:14] <sid> So will I be able to pop in an edgy disc, and it will take the 80 gig partition and make it 70 gigs say?
[08:14] <PriceChild> sid: yes
[08:14] <Joe_CoT> pricechild: hey, hows it goin
[08:14] <nolimitsoya> sid, yes, but have a backup
[08:14] <sid> k
[08:14] <PriceChild> Joe_CoT: average
[08:14] <jerp> ok, I'll give it a try,
[08:15] <JuJuBee> I need to perform a password recovery on a cisco router.  My connection to the router comes through an access server.  I am using terminal to telnet to the AS and then jump on a console line to the router.  I cannot seem to get the boot process to break.  What is the break key for terminal?
[08:15] <Joe_CoT> Pricechild: haha, isn't it always. I'm at work right now, so mostly just idling in my loco channel, but i'll be on later. much later
[08:15] <PriceChild> Joe_CoT: have fun
[08:15] <ubun> if he's the admin tell him to use the livecd to decide he wants to install ubuntu, t hen try it with a partition resizer on ONE backed up computer, if it works great if not then reinstall windows on it as a dual-boot ubuntu+XP machine, use that for a while decide if you want JUST ubuntu or all machines to be ubuntu+XP. if so then im sure he has norton 'ghost' which will help automate the process right :)
[08:16] <ubun> in the end it will be worth it anyway :/

[08:22] <Hexidigital> jesus: /j #ubuntu-es
[08:22] <ver0niqu3> other than azureus do you know another bit torrent client with a GUI and with th possibility to have more torrents in the same window?
[08:23] <dreaddy> micro torrent
[08:23] <nolimitsoya> torrent ;)
[08:23] <ver0niqu3> for linux?
[08:23] <dreaddy> yea...can't find that character
[08:23] <jesus> thanks
[08:23] <nolimitsoya> dreaddy, alt+ctrl+m
[08:23] <optikalmouse> BitTorrent
[08:23] <optikalmouse> that's a good client
[08:23] <optikalmouse> it's written in Python too
[08:23] <ver0niqu3> i usually use micro torrent under win...but didn't work under linux
[08:23] <dreaddy> thanks
[08:23] <optikalmouse> so it MUST be good
[08:23] <optikalmouse> :P
[08:23] <nolimitsoya> ver0niqu3, no, but works with wine
[08:23] <optikalmouse> and i still need ATI drivers :/
[08:23] <ver0niqu3> bit torrent cannot manage more torrents in the same window
[08:24] <optikalmouse> i have a 256mb ati card, i want to use all it's power
[08:24] <nolimitsoya> !fglrx | optikalmouse
[08:24] <ubotu> optikalmouse: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:24] <optikalmouse> ver0niqu3: i thought it could...
[08:24] <optikalmouse> what do you mean by manage?
[08:24] <optikalmouse> download more than one torrent?
[08:24] <jerp> pricechild, are you still here?
[08:24] <PriceChild> jerp: one second....
[08:24] <jerp> ok
[08:24] <optikalmouse> nolimitsoya: thank you!
[08:24] <zezu> partition type id 83 is ext2 ?
[08:25] <nolimitsoya> zezu, no
[08:25] <nolimitsoya> zezu, ext is afilesystem, not a partition type
[08:25] <ver0niqu3> optikalmouse, have more torrents file in the same window
[08:25] <zezu> err
[08:25] <zezu> right
[08:25] <optikalmouse> ver0niqu3: yes i think it can
[08:25] <ver0niqu3> and like azureus when i open the program i get all my torrents there
[08:26] <ver0niqu3> not open all torrents every time i close bittorrent
[08:26] <nolimitsoya> ver0niqu3, check out transmission or install wine to run torrent
[08:26] <leviathan> somebody can help me to install a wireless card with chip rtl8185l... the ubuntu 6.10 detect and install the modules but when I active the card in System - Administration - Network these be locked
[08:26] <nolimitsoya> !wifi | leviathan
[08:26] <ubotu> leviathan: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:26] <ver0niqu3> i really think no optikalmouse ...original bittorrent didn't do it
[08:26] <zezu> so filesystem id type 83 is ?
[08:26] <leviathan> ok
[08:26] <Jumper>  ext3 I think
[08:26] <leviathan> thanks
[08:26] <nolimitsoya> zezu, thats not a filesystem, but a partition type ;)
[08:26] <ubun> hopefully firefox will make a built in BT client like opera soon
[08:27] <nolimitsoya> zezu, linux partition type
[08:27] <gharz> is beryl available on synaptic?
[08:27] <zezu> ok, the real issue is i can't get it to mount
[08:27] <apokryphos> !beryl | gharz
[08:27] <ubotu> gharz: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[08:27] <nolimitsoya> gharz, no, not unless you add new repos
[08:27] <optikalmouse> ver0niqu3: i'm pretty sure the latest does
[08:27] <nolimitsoya> zezu, is it formatted?
[08:27] <zezu> well
[08:27] <atarinox> can somebody help me with my soundcard...it seems to have suddenly stopped working

[08:27] <zezu> I used dd to make a copy of an entire drive
[08:27] <ubotu> atarinox: 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).

[08:27] <optikalmouse> ver0niqu3: i was downloading 3+ torrents at once a month ago in the bt client
[08:28] <zezu> then wrote it back to another drive
[08:28] <zezu> fdisk reads it like it read the first
[08:28] <zezu> ( i didn't know if dd would copy  the part table and MBR )
[08:28] <proty> hello, can someone explain me what mens " a switchboard error" on GAin or aMsn?
[08:28] <zezu> so the data is there, and it seems it has the part. table at least
[08:28] <zezu> or else fdisk wouldn't list it
[08:29] <zezu> if i just use mount without a fs type, it tells me i need to specify a fs type
[08:29] <nolimitsoya> zezu, try 'sudo mount -t auto /dev/<device> /<path>
[08:29] <zezu> ok
[08:29] <optikalmouse> ver0niqu3: if you download the client from the website it's fine. for some reason the version i have has NO GUI :/
[08:30] <zezu> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[08:30] <nolimitsoya> zezu, use gparted the check what filesystem it is
[08:30] <atarinox> ubotu: i don't see anything about alsa...i'm using xfce though...maybe that's different?
[08:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i don't see anything about alsa...i'm using xfce though...maybe that's different? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:31] <zezu> ok i'll try
[08:31] <PriceChild> jerp: Im' back sorry
[08:31] <jerp> pricechild, I got a couple replies when I tried to enter the initiating command to run the game....
[08:31] <jerp> pricechild, reply1_  ./ut2004-bin: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5: version `GLIBCPP_3.2' not found (required by ./ut2004-bin)

[08:32] <Jaak_> i am trying to remove the opensource ati and return back to fglrx, but i get Mesa project driver when i type fglrxinfo now what?
[08:32] <PriceChild> jerp: I'd get rid of the copy then
[08:32] <PriceChild> jerp: need to find the "proper way"
[08:32] <ubun> beryl looks like it's straight out of the movie 'hackers'
[08:32] <zezu> all marked as unknown
[08:32] <jerp> ok, I couldn;t find those files in synaptic
[08:33] <nolimitsoya> zezu, then things did gowell :)
[08:33] <PriceChild> ubun: Its a "proper" 3d desktop isn't it :)
[08:33] <zezu> ;)
[08:33] <nolimitsoya> *didnt
[08:33] <zezu> let me see if the original disc has the same result
[08:33] <PriceChild> ubun: before i used linux, its what i imagined vista would look like
[08:33] <zezu> perhaps its a custom fs
[08:33] <PriceChild> ubun: especially with the new "3d world" plugin
[08:34] <ubun> i wanna try it but im not sure how i'd fare on my ati 64mb card
[08:34] <nolimitsoya> ubun, should be fine
[08:34] <ubun> cool
[08:34] <nolimitsoya> ubun, beryl works with gf2 and up :)

[08:40] <nemesis4u> can someone help me - I have looked all over the web for this answer
[08:41] <trappist> da1andonly83: the only solution I know for that is to disable the splash altogether - it would be great if you could take a picture of it and file a bug (if there's not already a bug)
[08:41] <Ash-Fox> Hmm, what's with the X updates? I can't find them in USN? Is there some other mailing lsit I can subscribe to to find out update information?
[08:42] <trappist> Ash-Fox: from the changelog, it looks like it's just some dependency fixes
[08:42] <da1andonly83> how do u disable the flash?
[08:42] <da1andonly83> i mean splash
[08:42] <nemesis4u> Could anyone help me - I am trying to Rar a video 900meg into 50 meg rar files.... how? and is there a gui to do it as well?

[08:42] <Ash-Fox> trappist, happen to know of any mailing list that will notify me in future about these updates?
[08:42] <StephenL> da1andonly83:  I had the same problem when I was installing ubuntu edgy on my mother's computer.
[08:43] <julianx> jaak_ i didn't know
[08:43] <trappist> Ash-Fox: not that I know of, unfortunately
[08:44] <zezu> nolimitsoya, no, this is for an arcade game, and like i said, the original disk has the same troubles
[08:44] <zezu> the original disk still works in the system
[08:44] <tonyyarusso> Ash-Fox: dapper-changes, edgy-changes, and feisty-changes have some info
[08:44] <zezu> the backup does not, but it doesn't even detect the hdd
