[08:21] <tinytitan> Photoguy: loads up very fast for me, perhaps it's your interwebs?
[08:21] <Photoguy> Maybe..
[08:21] <tinytitan> Photoguy: or just the distance between you and their server?
[08:22] <Photoguy> But ebrything else works great
[08:22] <Photoguy> I'm in Israel..but all other sites work great.
[08:22] <hischild> !away > nick|here
[08:23] <tinytitan> Photoguy: try http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[08:23] <nick|here> hischild: that's not an i'm back or i'm away kind of message. just changing my nick
[08:23] <vegombrei> jim_p: have you successfully connected a bluetooth headphones with ubuntu ?
[08:23] <jim_p> vegombrei, nope :( i have connected (paired) other stuff
[08:24] <Photoguy> Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)
[08:24] <Photoguy> That's what comes up.
[08:24] <hischild> nick|here, you're adding another message to an already huge channel with loads of text. You can use /away, which won't add text to the channel.
[08:25] <BezNalogov> Hello people. Can somebody tell me how I can schedule a job to be executed in 10 minutes. I expected "at" to be the right command for that, but I can't get it working there.
[08:26] <tinytitan> Photoguy: Found out why it's fast for me, their server is located an hour drive from me lol
[08:26] <Photoguy> heh
[08:26] <nick|here> BezNalogov: look at crontab entries  at google
[08:26] <tinytitan> Photoguy: I'd guess it's their server then
[08:26] <Photoguy> But it used to work..like a couple weeks ago.
[08:26] <Photoguy> Yeah
[08:26] <Photoguy> Christmas rush.
[08:26] <hischild> BezNalogov, you have to specify the time it has to run, not the time until you want it to run.
[08:27] <tinytitan> Photoguy: ah yeah
[08:27] <BezNalogov> no, i want this execution with a 10 minutes delay just one time, crontab is for regular executions
[08:27] <tinytitan> Photoguy: check the latency with a ping
[08:27] <Photoguy> How?
[08:27] <Photoguy> :P
[08:28] <nagchampa> in the 8.10 installer, does the automatic (guided) partitioning create a swap partition?
[08:28] <BezNalogov> I see hischild. Is there a way that I can do that in a bash script? Like calculate "now" + 10 minutes?
[08:28] <hischild> BezNalogov, why calculate? now + 10m should work. Anyway, got a coffee break here, i'll be back later.
[08:28] <BezNalogov> really? Excellent. Thanks
[08:29] <Photoguy> tinytitan how?

[08:37] <Photoguy> Ok, i'll look through the settings.
[08:37] <nagchampa> anyone know if the automatic partitioning in the ubuntu 8.10 installer adds a swap partition?
[08:38] <jtaji> nagappan: it does
[08:38] <jim_p> nagchampa, it does, if there is not an existing one
[08:38] <nagchampa> what size?
[08:39] <jim_p> nagappan, 2 times the size of the ram
[08:39] <nagchampa> thanks
[08:39] <vladtsepesh1984> how to play m2ts on ubuntu??
[08:42] <mosahin> hi. Need help with using real partitions on VirtualBox OSE.
[08:43] <jim_p> vladtsepesh1984, what is m2ts in real?
[08:43] <vegombrei> i need some help configuring a2dp i think ... i got a set of bluetooth headphones but i just cant get it to connect to my computer ... it shows up in bluetooth devices and stuff but there's no option to send sound to headphones
[08:43] <vladtsepesh1984> is the format for the real FULLHD format
[08:44] <jim_p> mosahin, do you mean set an existing os in an existing partition to work in vbox?
[08:44] <jim_p> vladtsepesh1984, mplayer maybe?
[08:44] <vladtsepesh1984> i opened it with vlc...but i can only see the video not the audio
[08:45] <mosahin> jim_p, no. I'm trying to access the files in my secondary partition using PuppyLinux live cd iso.
[08:46] <kurrata> hi, i was wondering if i can change somewhere thumbnail size in ubuntu?
[08:46] <burkesbythebay> Has anyone had success running MYOB in Ubuntu
[08:46] <jim_p> mosahin, what does vbox have to do with it? does the partition mount ?
[08:46] <rww> kurrata: what do you mean by "thumbnail size"? the size of the preview image for your files in the File Browser?
[08:47] <vietnow> Hiii, I need some help mounting a slave drive under xubuntu, I made a post on the ubuntu forums with all my questions, if you'd like to quickly view it, that would be great http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1012634
[08:47] <mosahin> I want to run DiabloII on both host system and the virtual PuppyLinux.
[08:47] <bastid_raZor> !mount > vietnow
 on desktop i have few pdf files wich show "page with text inside the document" and i want those "icons" to be smaller
[08:48] <vietnow> !mount
[08:48] <jim_p> vietnow, why dont you just mount it through fstab like normal?
[08:49] <vietnow> heres the odd thing....  It just randomly showed up in my /media/
[08:49] <jim_p> vietnow, then use fstab and FORCE it to mount in /mnt
[08:49] <Yossarian> okay this is really pissing me off. there are some WMA's that i can't play or convert
[08:49] <vietnow> I have no clue why, or if It will mount when I restart my pc
[08:49] <jim_p> Yossarian, it seems they are DRMed
[08:50] <rww> kurrata: oh, okay. In a normal File Browser window, you could use Ctrl++, Ctrl+-, and Ctrl+0 to do it (or Ctrl and the scroll wheel). For the desktop, I'm not sure, but I'll take a look and see if i can find anything.
[08:50] <vietnow> I was just wondering if you could tell me exactally what to put in my fstab, with my directory names and such
[08:50] <Yossarian> jim_p: that was my guess. but what can i do?
[08:51] <jim_p> vietnow, fstab is the permanent solution for mounting. it survives reboots and the like because thats what its supposed to do > provide a CONSTANT place for mounting everytime
 k, thx coudnt find enything usefull in google
[08:51] <jim_p> Yossarian, does soundKonverter convert them?
[08:52] <Yossarian> jim_p: nope, it gives some error
[08:52] <Yossarian> tried pacpl aswell
[08:52] <jim_p> Yossarian, then i would delete the files :( its no use searching
[08:53] <Yossarian> oh craaaaap
[08:53] <Yossarian> i can't really get them again
[08:54] <Yossarian> and i deleted MS completely
[08:54] <rww> kurrata: you can do it for individual icons by right-clicking the icon and choosing "Stretch Icon...", then dragging the little boxes that appear. You can set the default for all icons in both File Browser and the Desktop by opening File Browser and changing Edit > Preferences > Icon View Defaults: Default zoom level.
[08:54] <jim_p> Yossarian, well i may be able to find them for you. can you please pm me what they were?
[08:55] <Yossarian> they're classical recordings of Erich Bergel.
[08:55] <kurrata> rww:  thx
[08:55] <jim_p> Yossarian, give me a sec
[08:56] <Yossarian> i hate MS so freaking much
[08:56] <Yossarian> they're just arseholes

[08:57] <DaHopi> hello @all - on my 8.10 firefox is so slow on sites with flash plugin and / or heavy javascript. is there a possibility to make ff3 faster?
[08:58] <DASPRiD> DaHopi, tried Swiftfox?
[08:58] <jim_p> DaHopi, flashblock and noscript
[08:58] <zhjawe> Hi,Does anybody know how can I change root directry in apache.
[08:58] <vietnow> DaHopi; I recommend the extention NoScript
[08:58] <zhjawe> my OS is ubuntu 8.10.
[08:59] <DaHopi> jim_p: NoScript is not possbile, because we develop Web2.0 Applications.. :/
[08:59] <DaHopi> DASPRiD: is swiftfox faster?
[08:59] <jim_p> DaHopi, ok then, you can install flashblock and get some speed bonus
[08:59] <DASPRiD> DaHopi, http://getswiftfox.com/
[09:00] <DASPRiD> DaHopi, it is
[09:00] <DaHopi> jim_p: flashblock is installed, but if i want to hear a song from youtube, and browse on the other tab, firefox is running like on my good old 800 MHZ Desktop
[09:00] <vietnow> Hii, I'm wondering if someone could tell me the exact output of what I would add to my fstab to have my drive mounted at bootup. my detailed infromation is on a post here ::  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1012634
[09:00] <DaHopi> DASPRiD: i'll give it a try, thanks!
[09:01] <DASPRiD> DaHopi, else try a lightweight browser like epiphany
[09:01] <DASPRiD> or lynx
[09:01] <DASPRiD> ;)
[09:01] <jim_p> DaHopi, :| i never had such problem with ff
[09:01] <tiyowan> lynx, hehehe.
[09:01] <DASPRiD> ityowan: he, lynx is the best browser ever! ;)I
[09:01] <DASPRiD> nothing can beat it's performance :D
[09:02] <onats> is the ati 3870 supported on intrepid ibex?
[09:02] <DaHopi> jim_p: on 8.04 i think it was a tick faster..
[09:02] <jim_p> Yossarian, are you there?
[09:02] <mylisto> hey everyone
[09:02] <DaHopi> i prefer links.. ;)
[09:02] <hischild> !hcl | onats (check :-))
[09:02] <mylisto> I used devede to make an iso of a moie
[09:02] <mylisto> movie
[09:02] <jim_p> DaHopi, use opera!
[09:02] <Yossarian> yup
[09:02] <Yossarian> me here
[09:02] <mario> !it
[09:02] <mylisto> how can I burn this iso to a dvd to play in a normal dvd player?
[09:02] <DASPRiD> jim_p: no blasphemy!
[09:02] <onats> cool. thanks hischild
[09:03] <DaHopi> jim_p: opera is not kompatible to Backbase Web2.0 Frameworks.. :( bit its very fast, i agree :)
[09:03] <hischild> !ot | jim_p, DaHopi, DASPRiD
[09:04] <DASPRiD> cant join another channel :x
[09:04] <mylisto> anyone?
[09:04] <jim_p> hischild, what did i say?!
[09:05] <jim_p> mylisto, with any iso burning app like brasero or k3b
[09:05] <cplab2-58> hey i just started a blog....the posts contain talks from this IRC client......just give me feedback on what you think about it        http://ossarchives.blogspot.com/
[09:05] <hischild> jim_p, <jim_p> DaHopi, use opera!
[09:05] <tormsl> does anyone know how I install the linux-header package for this kernel: 2.6.18-028stab059.5-ent ?
[09:06] <mylisto> thanks jim
[09:06] <mylisto> hehe
[09:06] <mylisto> later
[09:06] <vietnow> Jim_P ::   I've found the correct thing to add to my fstab, is it necessary to make a directory in my /media/ for it, or should it automatically find it if its in the fstab?
[09:06] <jim_p> hischild, and how is this considered offtopic? he has problems with firefox and i suggested opera as alternative
[09:06] <DASPRiD> i have a Q for you as well: I have a second x-screen running on my third monitor, but the programs which have a tray icon dont appear in the systray there
[09:06] <owen1> any good command-line recording app?
[09:06] <hischild> jim_p, you were feeding the discussion about which browser was better.
[09:06] <vegombrei> i need some help configuring a2dp i think ... i got a set of bluetooth headphones but i just cant get it to connect to my computer ... it shows up in bluetooth devices and stuff but there's no option to send sound to headphones
[09:07] <onats> !xorg
[09:07] <jim_p> vietnow, you will need to make that folder in /mnt . /media is for removable media
[09:07] <DIFH-iceroot> !burning | owen1
[09:07] <onats> what's the version of xorg in ubuntu 8.10?
[09:07] <owen1> any good command-line audio recording app?
[09:07] <jim_p> onats, sadly, 7.5
[09:07] <jim_p> onats, *1.5
[09:08] <onats> jim_p, does that have issues with video cards?
[09:08] <onats> so i should just install 8.04 then
[09:08] <jim_p> onats, depends on what you define as usual. if ati poor performance is considered usual, yes
[09:08] <jim_p> onats, it is also incompatible with fglrx
[09:09] <onats> jim_p
[09:09] <onats> so you suggest i just go with 8.04?
[09:09] <jim_p> onats, what gpu are you on?
[09:09] <onats> powercolor 3870
[09:09] <onats> ati
[09:10] <jim_p> onats, yes :( i am on a 3850 and stayed to 8.04 for that reason
[09:10] <onats> jim_p, ok thanks for the tip.
[09:10] <onats> i need something stable
[09:10] <onats> and its a fresh hardware, so i dont want to be doing any reinstalls
[09:10] <jim_p> onats, in case you need a nice xorg example       http://7g.pri.ee/mine.conf
[09:10] <iminhell> How do I delete a folder that it says i can not delete?    I want to remove /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.27-9/arch/sh
[09:10] <JollyRoger> Hello everyone.
[09:11] <onats> jim_p, thanks!
[09:11] <jim_p> iminhell, sudo rm -r /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.27-9/arch/sh
[09:11] <DIFH-iceroot> iminhell: sudo
[09:11] <owen1> any good command-line audio recording app?
[09:11] <jim_p> iminhell, does it contain something more than headers?
[09:11] <Kohvihoor> is 8.10 unstable with ati?
[09:11] <hischild> iminhell, why do you want to remove that folder?
[09:12] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, ati's fglrx is incompatible with xorg 1.5 that 8.10 has
[09:12] <iminhell> hischild: just a duplicate of a makefile that i think may be the root of my dvd playback troubles, I don't have -9 on here.
[09:12] <Kohvihoor> so maybe that's why my installation froze.
[09:12] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, you can always use the opensource drivers that do work, but hace much less performance
[09:12] <Kohvihoor> yea i know.
[09:13] <Kohvihoor> good thing i have nvidia card at work. :D
[09:13] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, did you install fglrx?
[09:13] <hischild> iminhell, i don't understand how a makefile can be the source of dvd playback trouble. Can you explain it? And do this for me and give me the output .. uname -a
[09:13] <Kohvihoor> i didn't do anything, because installation bootup froze before i could even see anything past usplash
[09:13] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, not even the live enviroment?
[09:14] <Kohvihoor> nope.
[09:14] <blip-> hi all,  I have a FAT32 partition for sharing stuff between the dualboot windoze and linux.   But i'm losing data when I shutdown from linux as it isn't unmounting.   The reason for that is when I mount it via Dolphin file manager KDE prompts me for a password, likewise when I unmount it prompts... so when I shutdown the password prompt comes up to unmount but i have no time to type it before X turns off.   I checked fstab and found that the partition
[09:14] <blip-> isn't defined in there... must it be ?  Is that the cause of the permissions request ?   thanks
[09:14] <Darkhost> http://imperiumreklamy.com/pages/ptp.php?refid=krzysztof9222 click here to fun
[09:14] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, thats weird. can you try the alternative installation cd?
[09:14] <JollyRoger> Does any1 else get that nasty keyboard lag when trying to cap the first letter and it ends up capping the first and second letter ??
[09:15] <Darkhost> fun for linux http://imperiumreklamy.com/pages/ptp.php?refid=krzysztof9222
[09:15] <Kohvihoor> jim_p, if i have time, i'll try it today later. else i'm gonna submit a bug report.
[09:15] <hischild> Darkhost, please don't do that in here.
[09:15] <jim_p> stop it Darkhost
[09:15] <Kohvihoor> because 8.04 worked fine
[09:16] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, i am sure there will already be one
[09:16] <Kohvihoor> yea, me too.
[09:16] <Darkhost> ok
[09:16] <Darkhost> sorry:(
[09:16] <jim_p> :)
[09:16] <Kohvihoor> if i'm not the only one with this strange computer i have.
[09:17] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, what gpu are you on?
[09:17] <iminhell> hischild: http://paste.ubuntu.com/86121/       I can't get any dvd to play, I submitted a bug because we though we found the problem, they list it as answered now but I still don't have a fix, I've not had good luck with Ubuntu yet.

[09:18] <nbeebo> how can i see what my computer is made of, what command?
[09:18] <nbeebo> cpu ram etc
[09:18] <hischild> iminhell, you have a specific reason not to be on the -9 kernel?
[09:18] <hischild> iminhell, and do you have the libdvdcss package from medibuntu installed?
[09:18] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, well this is my xorg.conf, in case you get some idea              http://7g.pri.ee/mine.conf
[09:19] <the_gamer> nbeebo, multiple commands
[09:19] <iminhell> hischild: not really  and yes
[09:19] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, i am on ati 3850 pcix
[09:19] <rww> nbeebo: "sudo lshw" has all the information you'll probably ever want :)
[09:19] <jim_p> nbeebo, lshw
[09:19] <nbeebo> the_gamer.. hmm ok... rww, jim_p ill try thanks
[09:19] <hischild> iminhell, well i would always suggest to be on the latest kernel, which would be the -9 kernel in this case. You've tried the fix they gave? adding it to .bashrc
[09:19] <gusto5> hello, im interested in changing the 'on battery' dim from 40% to 60%, how can i accomplish this?
[09:20] <the_gamer> nbeebo, for cpu cat /proc/cpuinfo, for ram, cat /proc/meminfo
[09:20] <Kohvihoor> jim_p, thanks.
[09:20] <the_gamer> lspci etc...
[09:20] <the_gamer> yeah, lshw would be best
[09:20] <Kohvihoor> tho i run dual monitors, so it's a bit different.
[09:20] <owen1> how to record myself using the terminal?
[09:20] <iminhell> hischild:  It wouldn't add to the .bashrc. At least when I looked at the files I saw nothing relating to dvdcss
[09:21] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, somewhere in there is the 	Option		"DesktopSetup" 		"single"   change that and add the other monitor under mine
[09:21] <JollyRoger> omfg... can anyone tell me what the java plugin install command is for firefox..... ie tried this about a hundred times..   sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[09:21] <hischild> iminhell, that's because .bashrc isn't related to libdvdcss, dvdcss or anything for that matter. However, what you'll be adding there will affect all applications. Are you willing to try it?
[09:21] <Kohvihoor> in 8.04 i used aticonfig
[09:21] <iminhell> hischild: if those links to the paste still work, that was exactly what was in those files
[09:21] <aperson> blip-:autofs
[09:21] <jim_p> JollyRoger, did you run the update-alternatives command too
[09:22] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: I believe that command is correct.
[09:22] <hischild> iminhell, i know .bashrc :-) The effect would be that you won't have to set the env variable, because it's set as soon as you login.
[09:22] <jim_p> Kohvihoor, noooo avoid it at all costs! you dont want to look at the xorg.conf it makes :(
[09:22] <nbeebo> the_gamer, thanks
[09:22] <Sookie> Hi All
[09:22] <iminhell> hischild: can try, I got nothing to loose
[09:22] <JollyRoger> well that command keeps telling me...  Package sun-java6-plugin is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[09:22] <JollyRoger> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[09:22] <JollyRoger> is only available from another source
[09:22] <JollyRoger> E: Package sun-java6-plugin has no installation candidate
[09:22] <blip-> aperson: don't I already have this ?   How is kubuntu 8.04 mounting my root and home then
[09:22] <FloodBot2> JollyRoger: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:22] <Kohvihoor> jim_p, but its easier. :( but okay, i'll try to avoid it next time.
[09:23] <hischild> iminhell, alright. It's fairly easy actually, open up a terminal and copy this command to execute -->echo "export DVDCSS_METHOD=title" >> ~/.bashrc
[09:23] <hischild> iminhell, then log out, back in, and see if it works.
[09:23] <aperson> blip-: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/allow-normal-user-to-mount-linux-partitions-usb-stickpen-device.html has some info
[09:23] <JollyRoger> E: Couldn't find package update-alternatives
[09:23] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: Um...wait one.
[09:23] <iminhell> brb
[09:24] <JollyRoger> thats what i get for update-alternitives
[09:24] <blip-> thanks person
[09:24] <hischild> !enter | JollyRoger
[09:24] <hischild> !pastebin | JollyRoger
[09:24] <jim_p> JollyRoger, lol its sudo update-alternatives
[09:24] <JollyRoger> i did it..
[09:24] <jim_p> JollyRoger, plus a java parameter
[09:24] <jim_p> !java
[09:24] <JollyRoger> still the same problem, lol.
[09:24] <cplab2-58> hey can anyone tell me the package for compiz to be installed for deskop effects like cube
[09:25] <JollyRoger> already checked the forums lol.
[09:25] <JollyRoger> nothing helps...
[09:25] <rww> JollyRoger: you're trying to install the wrong package. Try sun-java6-jre instead of -plugin.
[09:25] <hischild> cplab2-58, compizconfig-settings-manager or ccsm-simple, your choice
[09:25] <owen1> any command-line app for recording myself?

[09:25] <JollyRoger> i already installed it rww, but... still does not work for firefox..
[09:25] <Sookie> I have a problem that I can't figure out how to sort out. I managed to get the VPN PPT connection to work in Intrepid at home. However at the office it does'nt connect. Starting in XP or using another computer in the same office network (XP) it is possible to connect, however when I start my computer in Linux it doesn't. The only diference between home and the office is that at the office we have a VPN PPTP server with the PPTP prot
[09:25] <Sookie> ocol ports forwarded to it; However if this is the reason, why the others computers or mine in XP can connect? Can you help me please?
[09:26] <hischild> JollyRoger, ease down on that enter button, it's gotta last longer then an hour
[09:26] <tormsl> does anyone know how I install the linux-header package for this kernel:  2.6.18-028stab059.5-ent ?
[09:26] <jim_p> owen1, arecord maybe?
[09:26] <Kohvihoor> does anyone have experience with likewise and ms exchange?
[09:26] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: Ok. Are you using intrepid?
[09:26] <JollyRoger> Sorry lol.
[09:26] <JollyRoger> yes.
[09:26] <jim_p> tormsl, what is that ? a custom made kernel?
[09:26] <rww> JollyRoger: go to about:plugins and see if you have an entry for Java in there. Also, check in Firefox preferences and make sure that "Enable Java" is checked. It sounds stupid, but that was someone's problem yesterday.
[09:26] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: Step 1: Verify that the Sun Java JRE is installed by going to Applications -> Add/Remove programs.
[09:26] <owen1> jim_p: thanks, i'll try it
[09:26] <tormsl> it's a kernel on a rented VPS server
[09:26] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: If it is. Step 2: Go to firefox and type about:plugins.
[09:27] <jim_p> owen1, you are welcome and sorry for the delay
[09:27] <tormsl> it's running 8.04 server with this kernel
[09:27] <owen1> jim_p: (-:
[09:27] <jim_p> tormsl, 2.6.18 is as old as... ubuntu dapper!
[09:27] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: Step 3: If you don't see a Java entry there. Visit any site which has Java code and ff'll prompt you to install the plugin. Do so.
[09:27] <hischild> jim_p, if iminhell gets back here, will you let him know i'm out for a break? tell him to PM me if he succeeded please.
[09:27] <rww> tormsl: are you sure that's an Ubuntu server? Looks like a CentOS kernel to me =/
[09:27] <jim_p> hischild, ok lol
[09:27] <hischild> jim_p, tnx
[09:28] <tormsl> how do I determine what installation is it from the command line then?
[09:28] <jim_p> tormsl, uname -r for the kernel
[09:28] <JollyRoger> tiyowan, ive check as many sites as i can for the java plugin... i cannot find one site that actually helps me lol.
[09:28] <rww> tormsl: run lsb_release -a
[09:28] <jim_p> tormsl, lsb_release -a for the distso
[09:28] <jim_p> rww got me
[09:29] <tormsl> Description:Ubuntu 8.04.1
[09:29] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: Do you see an entry for Java in about:plugins?
[09:29] <JollyRoger> No.
[09:29] <rww> tormsl: huh, guess I was wrong. Never mind, then :)
[09:29] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: Wait one.
[09:30] <tormsl> but is there anywhere I can get linux 2.6.18 kernel headers?
[09:30] <JollyRoger> OK.
[09:30] <jim_p> tormsl, ubuntu 8.04 AND kernel 2.6.18 ?
[09:30] <iminhell> hischild: didn't work
[09:30] <tormsl> yes :(
[09:30] <gusto5> im interested in changing the 'on battery' dim from 40% to 60%, how can i accomplish this?
[09:31] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre&try=1 <- Could you please go to this page.
[09:31] <jim_p> tormsl, only if you add a dapper repo and pray to the apt power to retrieve it from there. and still it wonr match the kernel 100%
[09:31] <JollyRoger> OK.
[09:31] <tiyowan> JollyRoger: What does the page say?
[09:31] <tormsl> so, maybe I should compile a new kernel then
[09:31] <JollyRoger> INstalling java. lol
[09:32] <JollyRoger> but i have installed it.
[09:32] <vegombrei> i need some help configuring a2dp i think ... i got a set of bluetooth headphones but i just cant get it to connect to my computer ... it shows up in bluetooth devices and stuff but there's no option to send sound to headphones
[09:32] <jim_p> tormsl, no. just install the latest one (2.6.24 for 8.04) and its headers as well
[09:32] <vegombrei> can someone pleaseeee help me ... if i dont get the headphones working by tonight my girlfriend will make me sleep on the couch
[09:33] <jim_p> vegombrei, if this is the problem then yes. can i pm you?
[09:33] <vegombrei> jim_p: please
[09:33] <tormsl> what apt-package is that?
[09:33] <tormsl> linux-kernel-2.6.24-server?
[09:34] <JollyRoger> everything is correct, and everything is enabled, i dont understand why it will not simply not plugin to firefox :\
[09:34] <onetinsoldier> JollyRoger: are you using 64-bit?
[09:34] <JollyRoger> Honestly im not sure. lol.
[09:35] <onetinsoldier> JollyRoger: roger... one moment
[09:35] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Sorry, I got disconnected.
[09:35] <JollyRoger> No Problem.
[09:35] <DarkFuzion> wb
[09:35] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Did the Java page install Java?
[09:36] <c_malc> can someone please point me in the right direction... to get my Ubuntu pc's to network with each other ?
[09:36] <JollyRoger> it did nothing. but tell me how to enable java in my browser which i have already done and does not help.
[09:36] <c_malc> a nice gui would do
[09:37] <Appiah> by network with eachother you mean what c_malc ?
[09:37] <Appiah> share files?
[09:37] <onetinsoldier> JollyRoger: type in   uname -a  ....look for    x86_64   ...is that on the line?
[09:37] <c_malc> Appiah: yes I want to share partitions across a router
[09:38] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Edit -> Preferences, verify that Enable Java is ticked.
[09:38] <Appiah> across the router?
[09:38] <DarkFuzion> ahhh
[09:38] <ushills1> Hi, I want to check if DMA is enabled on my dvd drive but /dev/dvd does not appear to be correct, how do I find out which /dev/? my drive is linked to
[09:38] <Appiah> you mean all are not behind the router c_malc ?
[09:38] <JollyRoger> Yes i have 86_64. and yes my java is enabled through firefox.
[09:38] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: And do what onetinsoldier is telling you, because if you're using 64-bits, then Java won't work.
[09:38] <tiyowan_> Jolly: Ah! Bingo! You need to use something else. OpenJava.
[09:38] <JollyRoger> lol
[09:38] <Appiah> Sun released 64bit javaplugin for browsers some day ago
[09:38] <rww> funny, my java works just fine =/
[09:39] <JollyRoger> Great. now i feel like the jolly green idiot :D
[09:39] <n2diy> ushills1, lshw?
[09:39] <onetinsoldier> JollyRoger: the java plugin for x86_64 won't be available until sometime next year... is the word
[09:39] <c_malc> Appiah: yes I have two Ubuntu desktops ethernet cabled to a router and an Ubuntu netbook-remix netbook on wifi
[09:39] <JollyRoger> OPenJava ?
[09:39] <rww> although maybe it's secretly some impostor java that works fine and the real sun java doesn't. i wouldn't notice the difference.
[09:39] <fivetwentysix> JollyRoger, 64-bit Sunjava does work for firefox
[09:39] <Photoguy> I have 32 bit 8.10, is it worth upgrading to 64bit? I do lots of 3d modelling and rendering.
[09:39] <fivetwentysix> Photoguy, do you use over 3gb of ram?
[09:39] <c_malc> Appiah: I'd like to be able to move files about between them
[09:39] <Photoguy> NO, 1.5
[09:39] <tnoy> it is only worth upgrading if you have more than 3gb of ram
[09:40] <Photoguy> ok
[09:40] <fivetwentysix> Photoguy, then you have no real benefits...
[09:40] <Photoguy> Thanks.
[09:40] <Appiah> c_malc: the routers wifi or is there a single access point behind or outside ?
[09:40] <JollyRoger> can i install openjava through terminal ?
[09:40] <fivetwentysix> Photoguy, isn't 3d rendering very memory intensive?
[09:40] <Photoguy> Yes..
[09:40] <Photoguy> Very
[09:40] <Appiah> JollyRoger: sudo apt-get install ?
[09:40] <fivetwentysix> Photoguy, why don't you upgrade to 4gb of ram?
[09:41] <Photoguy> I need more ram :P
[09:41] <fivetwentysix> Photoguy, it'll give you a reason to upgrade to 64-bit
[09:41] <JollyRoger> sudo apt-get install openjava ?
[09:41] <c_malc> Appiah: the router is Linksys WRT54GL (4 ethernet ports and wifi and internet WAN)
[09:41] <Appiah> apt-get install is for installing with commandline JollyRoger
[09:41] <Photoguy> Well, I wil when I get a new computer, at least 4g ram and quad 2.4ghz
[09:41] <Appiah> c_malc: then use NFS or Samba
[09:42] <Appiah> I'd suggest samba incase there happens to be a windows machine there..
[09:42] <Appiah> there is NFS softwares for win too but...
[09:42] <c_malc> Appiah: yes.. there is a Windows laptop as well
[09:42] <JollyRoger> sigh, sudo apt-get install openjava did not work :\
[09:42] <fivetwentysix> Photoguy, sounds similar to my system.
[09:42] <Appiah> c_malc: then use samba
[09:42] <Photoguy> C2Q?
[09:42] <Photoguy> 4gb?
[09:43] <fivetwentysix> Photoguy, q6600 4gb ram
[09:43] <c_malc> Appiah: ok... I'll see if it's installed
[09:43] <Photoguy> Nice!
[09:43] <fivetwentysix> Photoguy, with a 8800gts gfx card
[09:43] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Um. Hmmm. All I know about this is, is that someone else was having a problem earlier with Sun's Java on the 64 bit platform, and they tried an open-source alternative.
[09:43] <aldin> hi, how can i list all installed packages (i want to sync two computers), so i can apt-get install "listed" packages
[09:43] <Photoguy> fivetwentysix: PM ok?
[09:43] <tiyowan_> aldin | !clone
[09:44] <iminhell> hischild:  you still here?
[09:44] <Appiah> aldin: with some scritping maybe? to list installed packages use dpkg (man dpkg)
[09:44] <JollyRoger> So basicly im not going to be able to get java :\
[09:44] <Appiah> dpkg -l
[09:45] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: We're not going to give up on you yet, mate. Wait one.
[09:45] <JollyRoger> Lol, ok thank you.
[09:45] <A> http://imperiumreklamy.com/pages/ptp.php?refid=krzysztof9222 WOW!
[09:45] <c_malc> Appiah: it's already installed and there is a GUI called system-config-samba  thanks I'll look into that
[09:46] <Appiah> c_malc: np
[09:46] <ehama> any tool for restoring the partition table?
[09:47] <ushills1> when doing sudo hdparm /dev/sr0 for my dvd drive to check if DMA is enabled all I get is inappropriate ioctl for device, what does this mean?
[09:47] <aldin> Appiah: i found it, tiyowan_ thanks for "!clone"
[09:47] <tiyowan_> aldin: No problem.
[09:47] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Have you installed the restricted-extras?
[09:48] <JollyRoger> Uhmm
[09:48] <JollyRoger> Could you tell me how to install them ? lol.
[09:49] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Ok do this first. Applications -> Acc. -> Terminal. java -version
[09:50] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: What does running "java -version" show you?
[09:50] <JollyRoger> IcedTea6 1.3.1 (6b12-0ubuntu6) Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b12)
[09:50] <JollyRoger> OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0_0-b12, mixed mode)
[09:51] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: What the heck.
[09:51] <JollyRoger> lol :\
[09:51] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Ok wait one.
[09:51] <JollyRoger> Ok
[09:52] <rww> JollyRoger: make a new firefox profile (run firefox -ProfileManager from the terminal) and see if it has java or not
[09:52] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Go to Applications -> Add/Remove Programs. Remove the openJDK and IcedTea plugin from there. We need to start fresh.
[09:52] <JollyRoger> Ok
[09:53] <JollyRoger> Done.
[09:54] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Ok, now still in add/remove, search for Sun Java 6 Runtime, and place a checkmark next to that. *Only* that, please.
[09:55] <bullgard4> Having called cheops-ng what do I have to fill in the  text input field 'Agent hostname'?
[09:55] <JollyRoger> Dead search results.
[09:56] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Could you go to System -> Admin. -> Software Sources. Then click on the Third-Party tab. Tell me if you see something like medibuntu there?
[09:56] <echinos> Ok, I have a sound issue - everything trying to use sound hung, so I ctrl-alt-bksp to restart X, opened rhythmbox, and it turned grey and hung
[09:56] <echinos> How do I tell what is going on?
[09:57] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Also. In Add/Remove programs, search for Ubuntu restricted extras and check whether it is ticked or not.
[09:57] <JollyRoger> theres only two things in third-party software, nothing which says medibuntu
[09:58] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Gotcha. Check for the restricted extras in Add/Remove programs please.
[09:58] <JollyRoger> no search results.
[09:58] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: "Ubuntu Restricted Extras"?
[09:59] <zsc111> hello
[09:59] <JollyRoger> Nothing.
[09:59] <b0t4k> ola
[10:00] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Umm...next to search, it's set to All available applications is set?
[10:00] <JollyRoger> Oooo
[10:00] <JollyRoger> lol now it came up :O
[10:01] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: *whap* Is it ticked?
[10:01] <JollyRoger> No, should i install it.
[10:01] <JollyRoger> ?
[10:01] <ushills1> I'm having a few issues with dvd playback of cetain dvds under ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10, they seem to just clog up the drive.  Most dvd's work fine but a few of the latest will not playback or rip.
[10:01] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Okay now please pay attention.
[10:01] <JollyRoger> ok.
[10:02] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Tick ubuntu restricted extras. Also search for Sun Java 6 JRE *again*. That should come up as well. Tick *that*.
[10:02] <kristof> does anyone know a solution to this bug in oo.o presentations: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/298494
[10:03] <JollyRoger> Ok, Sun Java 6 JRE is ticked.
[10:03] <JollyRoger> ALready.
[10:03] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Click on Apply changes.
[10:03] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Open up a terminal and type java -version again. Write what you see.
[10:04] <perlmonkey> think I borked my system during last upgrade. I'm trying to remove exim4 and replace it with postfix, ive used apt-get remove on exim4 but im getting dependency error from apt...

[10:04] <jim_p> !medibuntu
[10:04] <JollyRoger> ok, i will when its done.

[10:07] <JollyRoger> OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0_0-b12, mixed mode)
[10:08] <JollyRoger> thats what i get for java -version
[10:08] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Um. Could you log out and back in, please, and try this again?
[10:08] <JollyRoger> like user log out ?
[10:08] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Yep.
[10:08] <JollyRoger> Brb. :)
[10:10] <JollyRoger> Ok.
[10:10] <pzn> I did a update yesterday. all ok. today I did it again (intrepid). many things stoped working, and I need to work :-) can I "reverse the upgrade" to work during the day, then at night I can do it again and search for the problems? how to reverse it? using intrepid/i386 with intrepid-updates in source list.
[10:11] <JollyRoger> it says the same thing when i do java -version
[10:11] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Hmm. Open up firefox and try to access a java page, please.
[10:11] <echinos> remove mailx first?
[10:11] <echinos> I dunno if that
[10:11] <echinos> is even a package
[10:11] <echinos> ah, it is
[10:11] <FloodBot2> echinos: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:12] <echinos> wow, laggy

[10:13] <JollyRoger> is /tmp an ok directory for cache files ?

[10:25] <divinebovine> giganto: did you google if that device is supported and what software you can use with it?
[10:25] <divinebovine> or you just plugged it in and magically expect it to work?
[10:25] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: run sudo fdisk -l it will show partitions
[10:26] <JollyRoger> i set it to my usb headset...
[10:26] <Sorcererbob> dark`night: you can edit your xorg.conf manually if the graphic system isn't starting. But if it is, then you can do it through the preferences
[10:26] <JollyRoger> didnt know you had to know rocket science in order to work headphones to a pc. :\
[10:26] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: if one shows up, mount it to a folder
[10:26] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: I need to go on a 15 min break now. :-) But if no one's helped you fix it till then, then I'll look into it.
[10:26] <JollyRoger> ill figure it out, but thank you.
[10:27] <dark`night> i was viewed that file (xorg.conf) .. the file there's no update configuration ..
[10:27] <dark`night> any wizard application to setting resolution ?
[10:28] <ActionParsnip2> dark`night: what gfx card?
[10:28] <dark`night> ASUS EN9500GT Top - NVdia
[10:28] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, ran fdisk -l but i don't think it showed up. All it showed was ... swap, extended and linux
[10:28] <ActionParsnip2> !nvidia | dark`night
[10:28] <dark`night> vga already detect
[10:29] <dark`night> i just want to know how to change resolution with console
[10:29] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: yu said it was a card reader. do you have a card in the reader?
[10:29] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, yup
[10:29] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, there's a card in the reader
[10:29] <Sorcererbob> dark`night: the graphics settings are kept in a file called xorg.conf
[10:30] <Sorcererbob> I believe its stored in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:30] <dark`night> yes i know but.. there's nothing happend at there.. i can show you if you want to see it
[10:30] <tiyowan_> giganto: What kind of reader is it? Internal or USB?
[10:30] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: use pastebin in future dude
[10:30] <Sorcererbob> I'd love to see
[10:30] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, okay
[10:30] <dark`night> i try to use 915 resolution but apt-get install said obsolete
[10:30] <giganto> tiyowan_, usb
[10:30] <giganto> tiyowan_, the internal one doesn't work either
[10:31] <tiyowan_> giganto: Does it detect the reader when you type "lsusb"?
[10:31] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: try unplugiing the device: sudo rmmod usb-storage then reconnecting
[10:31] <giganto> tiyowan_, seems like it did detect it
[10:32] <tiyowan_> giganto: Ok...
[10:32] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, unplugged, ran the code, then reconnected
[10:32] <ActionParsnip2> dark`night: i can show you mine, i run 1024x768 and use xorg.conf
[10:32] <dark`night> please
[10:33] <tiyowan_> giganto: Could you use pastebin.ubuntu.com and post your lsusb output please?
[10:33] <dark`night> i think the session
[10:33] <dark`night> how to delete session X
[10:33] <ActionParsnip2> dark`night: http://pastebin.com/fc6c4604
[10:33] <giganto> tiyowan_, sure
[10:34] <giganto> tiyowan_, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/86160/
[10:35] <kris_> saluti a tutti
[10:35] <tiyowan_> giganto: I don't think it's picking up your reader. Olympus is your mouse right?
[10:35] <dark`night> yes.. right.. i was try to delete session X at home directory.. now running smooth
[10:35] <dark`night> :D
[10:35] <dark`night> thx to try helping
[10:35] <giganto> tiyowan_, i don't have a mouse attached. Its an olympus card reader
[10:36] <aeosynth> how do i manage the splash screens that occur in between logging-in to gnome and my desktop wallpaper loading?
[10:36] <tiyowan_> giganto: Oops. :-) Sorry. Okay are you using 8.10?
[10:36] <giganto> tiyowan_, in my file manager, there is a "USB Drive" under CD-RW/DVD
[10:36] <giganto> tiyowan_, yup
[10:36] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: what make / model is the reader?
[10:36] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, umm dunno, its supplied by Olympus when I bought their camera
[10:36] <tiyowan_> giganto: So when you put in the card. Nothing happens? I mean can you access it?
[10:37] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: mine says that and ones never been near it
[10:37] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: read the bottom of it?
[10:38] <giganto> tiyowan_, umm, the light on the reader blinked furiously, then stopped. Then the option "USB Drive" appeared. I can't access it
[10:38] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, the closest i get to a model is MAUSB-200 ...
[10:38] <AltinT> what do i have to install to be able to share folders?
[10:38] <ActionParsnip2> good enough
[10:38] <max> hi there
[10:38] <tiyowan_> gigantic: fdisk -l show up anything?
[10:38] <ActionParsnip2> !samba | AltinT
[10:39] <bullgard4> Having called cheops-ng what do I have to fill in the  text input field 'Agent hostname'?
[10:39] <tiyowan_> er, giganto: fdisk -l show up anything?
[10:40] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: tried a different usb port?
[10:40] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: are you connecting the card reader to a usb hub?
[10:40] <giganto> tiyowan_, 2 lines :Cannot open /dev/sda
[10:40] <giganto> Cannot open /dev/sdb
[10:40] <mr_boo> is gparted good?
[10:41] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, tried all 3 ports on my laptop. not connected to a usb hub...
[10:41] <mr_boo> i got 0.3.5 from repositories
[10:41] <tiyowan_> mr_boo: Yes.
[10:41] <mr_boo> am i supposed to be able to create ntfs partitions?
[10:41] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: you cant open /sda or sdb as they are drives and not partitions
[10:41] <tiyowan_> giganto: This card you're trying to read, works right?
[10:41] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: you can only open mounted partitions
[10:42] <tiyowan_> ActionParsnip2: Perhaps have him mount, then try?
[10:42] <mr_boo> tiyowan_: i seem to be able to create some filesystems but not all listed
[10:42] <ActionParsnip2> tiyowan_: not showing up in fdisk
[10:42] <mr_boo> tiyowan_: fat32 seems to be ok but not ntfs
[10:42] <mr_boo> tiyowan_: any ideas?
[10:42] <giganto> tiyowan_, yeah the card works, just took pictures with it
[10:43] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, perhaps its not mounted??
[10:43] <tiyowan_> mr_boo: If you want to create ntfs partitions, I'd strongly recommend that you use some Windows-based tool, if you're on a dual boot.
[10:43] <aeosynth> how do i manage the splash screens in between log-in and desktop wallpaper showing?
[10:43] <tiyowan_> giganto: Could you pastebin your fdisk -l output please?
[10:43] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: if it doesnt show in fdisk you have nothing to mount
[10:43] <mr_boo> tiyowan_: actually this is on another physical drive
[10:44] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: can you also pastebin:dmesg | tail
[10:44] <ActionParsnip2> dmesg | tail
[10:44] <giganto> tiyowan_, the pastebin for fdisk -l  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/86162/
[10:45] <mr_boo> giganto: looks pretty to me
[10:45] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, here it is http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/86164/
[10:46] <mr_boo> giganto: except that the boot partition is chosen to swap
[10:46] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: its detected. but: Buffer I/O error on device sdb, logical block 1
[10:46] <mr_boo> giganto: doesn't make sense to me but i'm no expert
[10:46] <giganto> mr_boo, no idea what u are on about lol. I'm newb to linux
[10:46] <Ludoza> Ludoza> on 8.10 how do I install the package kernel-patch-mppe
 linux-pptp needs it to connect to a microsoft vpn
 /usr/sbin/pptpsetup: couldn't find MPPE support in pppd.
 RTNETLINK answers: No such process
[10:46] <FloodBot2> Ludoza: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:47] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, ah ... so ... not good??
[10:47] <bullgard4> mr_boo: GParted is very good.
[10:47] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, block 1 is corrupted?
[10:47] <mr_boo> giganto: do you use an usb disk as system disk?
[10:47] <giganto> mr_boo, nope don't think so
[10:47] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: got a windows system?
[10:47] <mr_boo> bullgard4: yup, looks neat
[10:47] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, had one before
[10:47] <xukun_> is there some kind of benchmark for linux? I need to create 100% load for my video card
[10:48] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, then used arch for a while (friend slapped it on)
[10:48] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, back to ubuntu now
[10:48] <mr_boo> bullgard4: but the ntfs choice is graymarked unlike fat16, fat32, ext2 etc.
[10:48] <zzxxzz> The trash icon is not working properly with a new ubuntu 8.10 install. It always appears empty, and states "No items in Trash" when pointed to,although there is content in the trash directory. Right clicking the icon DOES allow me to delete the files in the trash, and left clicking the icon opens the directory displaying the deleted files.
[10:48] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: you could try attaching it to a windows box to see if the reader is ok and check the disk for errors
[10:48] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, i don't have a windows box with me here lol
[10:48] <mr_boo> giganto: does your system work as you wish btw?
[10:49] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: but the system is TRYING to pick it up as /dev/sdb which would yield a partition /dev/sdb1 but it appears corrupt.
[10:49] <mr_boo> giganto: (too lazy to read log)
[10:49] <Ludoza> On Ubuntu 8.10 server how do I install/enable the package kernel-patch-mppe. linux-pptp needs it to connect to a microsoft vpn The error I get is "/usr/sbin/pptpsetup: couldn't find MPPE support in pppd."
[10:49] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: does your lappy not have a card reader built in?
[10:49] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, yeah it does
[10:50] <giganto> mr_boo, umm what do u mean as I wish? lol
[10:50] <ActionParsnip2> zzxxzz: is there a setting to point the trash icon to another folder? maybe its changed from default
[10:50] <mr_boo> giganto: well, does it boot for example?
[10:50] <giganto> mr_boo, umm yes? otherwise i won't be here using irc lol
[10:50] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: if sdb shoed in fdisk output you could fsck it to maybe repair
[10:51] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, hmm ... i dun wanna risk losing any data lol
[10:51] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: id try the reader in another system and even a different os
[10:51] <mr_boo> giganto: just looked funky that sda1 was swap and marked as boot partition
[10:52] <mr_boo> giganto: system was stated to sda5 but nevermind
[10:52] <giganto> mr_boo, ah i remember now, I set the swap partition before I set the boot partition
[10:52] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: try this
[10:52] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: sudo modprobe -r sdhci; sudo modprobe -r mmc_block
[10:52] <ActionParsnip2> the
[10:53] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: sudo modprobe sdhci; sudo modprobe mmc_block
[10:53] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, i inserted the card into the internal card reader and nothing seems to work
[10:53] <giganto> lol
[10:53] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: wait 10 seconds then try sudo fdisk -l again
[10:53] <giganto> [ 2994.924094] tifm_core: SmartMedia/xD card detected in socket 0:0
[10:53] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: ahhh if the internal card reader wont work its probably the card
[10:54] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, hmm ...
[10:54] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: if you put it in the camera you may be able to connect it via usb
[10:54] <mr_boo> bullgard4: do you have any idea if gparted is supposed to be able to handle ntfs partitions?
[10:54] <zzxxzz> ActionParsnip2: Left clicking the icon opens ~/.local/share/Trash/files which is where the deleted files are, and right clicking the icon allow me to remove them. Only the icon always indicates the Trash is empty and when pointed at displays "No items in Trash".
[10:54] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, oh yeah ...
[10:54] <ActionParsnip2> zzxxzz: have you been playing with icons?
[10:55] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: i'd try the remove modules, reload modules
[10:55] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: could also reboot with the card in, see if it likes that
[10:56] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, hmm i dun have the usb cable for the camera... didn't bring it with me since i thought the card reader would work. Do u still want me to run the code sudo modprobe -r sdhci.... again?
[10:56] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, i haven't ran those code yet
[10:57] <xukun> is there a way to create 100 video card load?
[10:57] <zzxxzz> ActionParsnip2: Haven't done anything but install the OS on a new notebook, move some files from an old system, and browse the internet.
[10:57] <arnuld>  when I use "slocate filename" I get this: slocate: fatal error: Could not find user database '/var/lib/slocate/slocate.db':  Permission denied
[10:57] <ActionParsnip2> giganto: id go for the reboot personally, with the card in the built in reader
[10:57] <giganto> ActionParsnip2, okay i'll try that. Brb
[10:57] <ActionParsnip2> arnuld: you need to update the database maybe
[10:58] <arnuld> ActionParsnip2: but after updating the DB, it still the same :(
[10:58] <xukun> anybody please?
[10:59] <ActionParsnip2> arnuld: try sudo in front of the command, just to test
[10:59] <arnuld> ActionParsnip2:  root is for *updating* the DB
[11:00] <zzxxzz> xukun: Perhaps opening and playing several video files simultaneously?
[11:00] <mr_boo> to be honest, i've forgotten where my windows xp boot cd is
[11:01] <hanibana> hi

[11:10] <simmerz> hi. why would my volume control hud keep popping up all the time? i'm not touching volume controls at all
[11:10] <rww> k21: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/
[11:10]  * tiyowan_ is back from his break.
[11:10] <k21> thx rww
[11:11] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Still no luck?
[11:11] <Wakou> could someone help me, please with a CLI commmand...?
[11:11] <tiyowan_> Wakou | !ask
[11:11] <aprilhare> Wakou: what sort of CLI command? there are a few of them.
[11:12] <Wakou> I would like to wipe a disk of everything EXCEPT media file and documents....
[11:12] <JollyRoger> tiyowan, nah it still wont work.
[11:12] <rebel_kid> can i set volume from terminal? if so can i chain commands (im using kalarm to run a command after a specified time) is there another simple method to do this?
[11:12] <tiyowan_> Wakou: Copy what you need to another disk, then wipe out everything.
[11:12] <Wakou> lol....
[11:12] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Was it working breaking?
[11:13] <h3adnut> that url doesnt help me
[11:13] <tiyowan_> Wakou: ?
[11:13] <JollyRoger> No, just no sound at all.
[11:13] <Wakou> I was hoping for a nifty CL command
[11:13] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Doh. I meant, was it working before?
[11:13] <JollyRoger> i have it set to the right config. my logitech headphones.
[11:13] <h3adnut> mr_boo
[11:13] <JollyRoger> well until i installed ubuntu, lol yes.
[11:13] <Wakou> (I don't know unix too well) but...
[11:14] <syberjj> guys every time i install ubuntu its the same problem. is there a SIMPLE way of getting samba to work? the only way I got my ubuntu system to see windows shares was to install webmin and change the workgroup using it. I edited the smb.conf file manualy MANY times to change my workgroup but it never helps. now i see the other workgroup listed but i cant see any computers in it. there is another ubuntu server in that network acting as a fi
[11:14] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Okay...hmm. Try typing "killall pulseaudio" from a teminal. Then check please.
[11:14] <Wakou> DEL *.* -*.mp3, *.avi, *.doc  sort of thing...
[11:15] <tiyowan_> Wakou: man rm
[11:15] <NET||abuse> wow, i have alot of crap outs of synergy client on my machine,, what does it mean when the process is marked "defunked" when i use ps aux | grep syn
[11:15] <JollyRoger> Nothing happed.
[11:15] <NET||abuse> i have to kill -9 the process as quicksynergy can't kill it when it's defunked like that.
[11:16] <NET||abuse> or is it defunced?
[11:16] <Wakou> ? that would give me the syntax for the rm command?
[11:16] <NET||abuse> no first one i think
[11:16] <JollyRoger> pulseaudio: no process killed
[11:16] <Wakou> ... ty tiyowan..
[11:16] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Hmm...could you go into System -> Preferences -> Sound and try changing random stuff to ALSA? :-)
[11:17] <tiyowan_> Wakou: You're welcome.
[11:17] <rww> !msg | k21
[11:17] <rww> k21: also, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat#IRC%20Clients
[11:17] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Change movies and music playback to ALSA and check.
[11:17] <k21> ok
[11:17] <syberjj> jollyroger, close firefox before testing
[11:17] <farnsworth_> hi
[11:18] <farnsworth_> im looking for a skypeclient, but not the original
[11:18] <farnsworth_> is there one
[11:18] <syberjj> jollyroger - on most systems flash has the nice "addition" of blocking the sound by using the old sound system. so before you can test it cloase firefox and all sound apps, then open the sound apps u wanna test again
[11:18] <syberjj> farnsworth_ www.skype.com and download the original for linux?
[11:18] <farnsworth_> nah
[11:19] <farnsworth_> i read the wikipedia-critics
[11:19] <JollyRoger> hmm
[11:19] <farnsworth_> not good.
[11:19] <JollyRoger> 1 sec.
[11:19] <rww> farnsworth_: skype's protocol is proprietary and heavily-obfuscated, so i doubt there's a good third-party client for it.
[11:19] <syberjj> farnsworth_ - i use it all the time. its not as pretty as the windows version but worked 100% so far
[11:20] <JollyRoger> well the test works fine. only after im done testing, i checked youtube and still no sound.
[11:20] <tiyowan_> farnsworth_: Skype's code is closed-source.
[11:20] <h3adnut> so what the fu** i can do against this error
[11:20] <farnsworth_> syberjj: yes, it works fine, but its closed and send encrypted date to $servers
[11:20] <mr_boo> how do i tell my ubuntu system to use another linux-swap partition as first choice?
[11:20] <tiyowan_> farnsworth_: A GPL Skype client does not exist as of now.
[11:21] <farnsworth_> hm ok
[11:21] <syberjj> JollyRoger - its kind of complicated - flash doesnt use ALSA so it only allows one sound app at a time
[11:21] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Um..do you get sound when you try to play MP3s?
[11:21] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Because if you do, then that means that Flash is up to no good.
[11:21] <JollyRoger> well i dont have any mp3's on here at the moment but i can try projectplaylist
[11:21] <allsystemsarego> JollyRoger, do you have libflashsupport on your system?
[11:21] <rebel_kid> i cant seem to find a way to control volume through terminal, i need a command to set the master volume
[11:22] <syberjj> JollyRoger - There is some way of installing flash the right way, dont remember it now though..
[11:22] <allsystemsarego> rebel_kid, try aumix
[11:22] <JollyRoger> i have no clue
[11:22] <syberjj> Can anyone tell me how to get ubuntu to see windows fileshares? i freaking hate samba right now....
[11:22] <rebel_kid> allsystemsarego, ty
[11:23] <allsystemsarego> syberjj, Places-Connect to server?
[11:23] <JollyRoger> mp3's are a no go.
[11:23] <allsystemsarego> !samba | syberjj
[11:24] <k21> hello i want to know intrepid support another gui irc client??
[11:24] <tiyowan_> k21: Yes. XChat. Pidgin. And many others.
[11:25] <k21> !msg rww
[11:25] <JollyRoger> mp3's do not work either.
[11:25] <rww> k21: I already sent you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat#IRC%20Clients . There's a whole bunch of them listed there.
[11:25] <rebel_kid> allsystemsarego, :D thank you so much
[11:25] <k21> command to install xchat in terminal plz
[11:25] <syberjj> allsystemsarego - i want to see all computers from a workgroup using places>network. only way i got this to work was by installing webmin and configuring samba through there to join the workgroup i wanted it to join. all other sorts of workgroup change (including manual edit of smb.conf > "workgroup = WORKGROUP" didnt work.
[11:25] <rww> k21: sudo apt-get install xchat
[11:25] <DIFH-iceroot> k21: sudo apt-get install xchat
[11:26] <allsystemsarego> JollyRoger, go to add/remove and install ubuntu restricted extras
[11:26] <syberjj> allsystemsarego - and i realy dont want to isntall webmin again
[11:26] <rebel_kid> allsystemsarego, now do you know how to enter two commands on one line? ex aumix do this and vlc do this
[11:27] <JollyRoger> there already installer.
[11:27] <allsystemsarego> rebel_kid, use a semicolon (;) to separate the commands
[11:27] <rebel_kid> allsystemsarego, thats what i thought, didnt work :(
[11:27] <k21> should we first download xchat??
[11:28] <allsystemsarego> JollyRoger, sudo apt-get install libflashsupport
[11:28] <allsystemsarego> rebel_kid, I need more details
[11:28] <k21> see, previously im using fedora
[11:28] <JollyRoger> are you sure its a flash problem ? mp3's do not work either.
[11:29] <allsystemsarego> syberjj, not sure if I can help
[11:29] <allsystemsarego> JollyRoger, even with VLC?
[11:29] <rebel_kid> allsystemsarego, might be a problem in kalarm, command runs fine in terminal, ty
[11:29] <JollyRoger> nothing.
[11:29] <syberjj> allsystemsarego - k thx anyway
[11:29] <allsystemsarego> rebel_kid, bingo, you need to create a script file
[11:30] <imed> hello les ami
[11:30] <rebel_kid> allsystemsarego, :) done, simple enough
[11:31] <allsystemsarego> rebel_kid, what happens if you do it this way (command1;command2) - i.e. enclose in parantheses?
[11:31] <rebel_kid> allsystemsarego, hmm let me check
[11:31] <tiyowan_> JollyRoger: Change some more stuff to ALSA in System -> Pref. -> Sound?
[11:31] <JollyRoger> ill try.
[11:32] <tiyowan_> rebel_kid: A good introduction to shell scripting is linuxcommand.org :-)
[11:32] <rebel_kid> allsystemsarego, SWEET! perfect

[11:36] <EnQLey> non c'est pas vrais, vous parlez tous français mais vous faites semblants de parler l'anglais pour ennuier les gens à les embrouiller d'aprendre une langue de merde.

[11:37] <Tyrath> bazhang: don't bother, i don't think he cares
[11:37] <tiyowan_> EnQLey: What Tyrath said.
[11:38] <rww> EnQLey: which part of "Ce canal est en anglais uniquement." aren't you comprendre-ing?
[11:38] <Lunz> need help,i just install ati radeon 9550 driver but after reboot my monitor is out of range!what should i do?anyone?
[11:38] <Tyrath> EnQLey: just because you can speak french doesn't mean you should in here :P

[11:38] <waba92> what is the name of the terminal in xubuntu
[11:39] <waba92> i want to know the order to start it
[11:39] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Umm, can you boot into Ubuntu?
[11:39] <AltinT> hey
[11:39] <allsystemsarego> waba92, xfce4-terminal
[11:39] <AltinT> how do i make my windows music folder available for playing in linux? (without copying everything)
[11:39] <waba92> allsystemsarego, thanks
[11:40] <tiyowan_> AltinT: Mount your Windows partition?
[11:40] <Tyrath> rww: apparently bitlbee is for IRC chat
[11:40] <Lunz> tiyowan_:yes after i run in recovery mode and fixed the xconf
[11:40] <Tyrath> rww: i'm well acquainted with irssi so i'll stick with it
[11:40] <tiyowan_> AltinT: You should see it when you click Places.
[11:40] <OhNos> farnsworth_: ctrl+alt+2 isn't doing anything
[11:40] <Tyrath> rww: when I said universal i meant IRC, MSN... etc.
[11:40] <Tyrath> rww: one that does everything
[11:41] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Ok...so what's the problem?
[11:41] <rww> Tyrath: bitlbee is an IRC server that connects to AIM, MSN, Yahoo, etc., so you can talk to people on those networks from within your irc client
[11:41] <Tyrath> rww: I want to get as many progs as i can on shell to save memory
[11:41] <farnsworth_> OhNos: f2
[11:41] <Lunz> tiyowan_:after i enable the restricted ati driver and reboot my monitor will out of range again..
[11:41] <farnsworth_> not 2
[11:41] <Tyrath> rww: oh
[11:42] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Hmm...could you explain what you mean by "out of range" please?
[11:42] <mr_boo> is it recommended to edit the /proc/swaps file?
[11:42] <Photoguy> I'm having trouble with Blender..after minimizing sometimes it doesn't restore when I try to!
[11:42] <tww6644> mr_boo: you can't
[11:42] <tiyowan_> mr_boo: Be careful.
[11:42] <Photoguy> Ubuntu 8.10
[11:43] <Lunz> tiyowan_:"Out of Range" pop up on my screen monitor and it goes blank after that
[11:43] <tombee> Gah keep getting random crashes on intrepid on my 1st gen Macbook.  Machine just completly locks, can't move mouse or anything.  Anyone else had similar problems?
[11:43] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Ah gotcha. What card are you using?
[11:43] <tww6644> mr_boo: /proc/swaps is a read only file, even for root. it is not a real file, it just read information from the kernel
[11:44] <Lunz> tiyowan_:ati sapphire 256MB 9550
[11:44] <mr_boo> tww6644: should i use the "swapon" command then instead?
[11:44] <AltinT> tiyowan_: yes but every time i launch amarok, they need to reload, and it takes a lot of time ... any faster ways?
[11:44] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Roger. Wait one, please.
[11:44] <allsystemsarego> !swap | mr_boo
[11:44] <tww6644> mr_boo: yes, swapon/swapoff is for turning on/off swap
[11:44] <Mulletar> when someone has a minute I think I screwed my MBR
[11:44] <tiyowan_> AltinT: Um, try another player?
[11:44] <mr_boo> tww6644: many thanks
[11:45] <AltinT> tiyowan_: which ones are there
[11:45] <AltinT> ?
[11:45] <Lunz> tiyowan_:ok,and i cant run my compiz :((
[11:45] <Photoguy> Is there a shortcut for System monitor?
[11:45] <tiyowan_> AltinT: Well...look in Add/Remove Programs.
[11:45] <Photoguy> Kind of like Cntrl+Alt+Delet?
[11:45] <AltinT> ctrl+est i think
[11:45] <AltinT> esc*
[11:46] <mr_boo> wonder why that tut and others recommend making a swap file rather than assicoate a partition
[11:46] <OhNos> farnsworth_: same, just sits there. my mouse can move though
[11:46] <ubuntu008> Photoguy: try installing screenlets
[11:46] <allsystemsarego> Photoguy, you can define it with ubuntu-tweak
[11:46] <Photoguy> Screenlets?
[11:46] <Photoguy> Ok
[11:46] <ubuntu008> Photoguy: yes screenlets, or gkrellm, conky
[11:46] <Tyrath> rww: when i first started it up it wouldn't work. it explained that there was a read/write permission flaw with a specific folder - i set u+rw for that folder and it still gives the same error :/
[11:47] <DarkFuzion> does anyoneknows whether or not a Mobility 9200 is supported by fgrlx drivers
[11:47] <Mulletar> I can't boot XP via GRUB after I have just installed Ubuntu.  Can anyone help me with this
[11:48] <farnsworth_> DarkFuzion: i got a 9000 and it works (ati opensourcedrivers; shipped with ubuntu)
[11:48] <rww> Tyrath: I remember needing to do some reconfiguration of it to get it to work right with Ubuntu. I'm about to go to sleep, though, and don't remember what I did. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Bitlbee might help, maybe?
[11:48] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Ok. Are you in recovery mode now?
[11:48] <DarkFuzion> what that
[11:48] <Lunz> tiyowan_:yes
[11:48] <tiyowan_> Lunz:   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:49] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Wait.
[11:49] <rww> Tyrath: or just use one of the public bitlbee servers (see bitlbee's homepage) if you don't mind sending your login credentials to some random server
[11:49] <Tyrath> rww: thanks for the heads up. i'll give it a shot
[11:49] <DarkFuzion> farnsworth shipped with the cd?
[11:49] <farnsworth_> DarkFuzion: just install ubuntu and i guess it will just works fine even in opengl
[11:49] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Is your GUI started up now?
[11:49] <Tyrath> rww: also would you know how compatible it is with skype?
[11:49] <farnsworth_> DarkFuzion: yes
[11:49] <Mulletar> no help for the Mulletar?
[11:49] <farnsworth_> its included
[11:49] <DarkFuzion> yeah it works fine
[11:49] <imed> imed est maitenaent est avec vous
[11:49] <Lunz> tiyowan_:i already done that
[11:49] <Tyrath> rww: apparently it supports skype but i don't know if that means it allows me to make calls, etc.
[11:49] <DarkFuzion> how do i get compiz

[11:50] <rww> Tyrath: no idea, I don't use skype
[11:50] <imed> yes of cours
[11:50] <OhNos> if all keyboard shortcuts are doing nothing, I'll be forced to reboot won't I?
[11:50] <Lunz> tiyowan_:but i am not using ati driver i think
[11:50] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Are you using the ATI drivers right now?
[11:50] <Tyrath> DarkFuzion: sudo apt-get install compiz-gnome
[11:50] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Check by going to System -> Admin. -> Hardware Drivers please.
[11:50] <Lunz> tiyowan_:how to check whether i am using it or not?
[11:50] <Mulletar> I think that I told GRUB to install on my windows partition on my other disk and now I can't boot XP
[11:51] <Lunz> tiyowan_:wait a sec
[11:51] <imed> can i speak en french
[11:51] <tiyowan_> Mulleter: Boot from a Win disc, go to the recovery console, and trype fixmbr. This'll wipe out GRUB. Then do a reinstall of GRUB from the LiveCD.
[11:51] <rww> imed: no. If you want to speak in French, do it in #ubuntu-fr.
[11:51] <Tyrath> imed: you knwo that answer to that
[11:51] <Mulletar> I know spanish if that helps
[11:51] <Tyrath> imed: vas-au #ubuntu-fr, vas-y!

[11:55] <d-b> right click imed

[11:56] <imed> but in ubuntu have few image
[11:56] <d-b> Lunz: sorry. i thought he was being a troll for a second.
[11:56] <rww> imed: right-click on the desktop, hit the bottom option on the menu that pops up ("Change Desktop Background" if you have Ubuntu configured to be in english), select an image from the window that pops up or click the + Add... button.
[11:56] <tiyowan_> Lunz: When you activate the ATI drivers, they seem to set an incorrect monitor configuration in your xorg.conf file. That causes your monitor to go out of range.
[11:56] <vahid> My Network Manager after update : Device is unmanaged

[11:58] <rww> !vm | imed
[11:58] <d-b> imed: it is linux.

[11:59] <pybe> anyone know what would cause nslookup to resolve a fqdn but resolveip to fail?
[11:59] <Tyrath> imed: for games and other things i'd recommend wine, it works for me
[11:59] <Tyrath> anyhow i'm ogg

[12:00] <Tyrath> thanks for the help folks
[12:00] <Mulletar> tiyowan_ thanks for the support
[12:00] <r3dux> Anyone have the problem that the last line of displayed text -ISN'T... like in this (xchat), in konsole, yakuake etc etc??
[12:00] <tiyowan_> Mulletar: No worries, mate. :-)
[12:00] <justaquickquesti> hey guys
[12:00] <relik77080> hey - my sound through totem has stopped working - but continues to work through vlc.... whats going on?
[12:00] <Mulletar> a lot of shit has gone wrong for me in the last 20 hours and this is one that I don't need but sounds like I can fix.
[12:01] <Lunz> tiyowan_:http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/86208/
[12:01] <r3dux> relik77080, sounds like totem is trying to use a diff sound card/system
[12:01] <imed> im now in vm,and i like to go to partion D tha exite sur wine
[12:01] <tiyowan_> Mulletar: I had to deal with a lot of issues when installing Ubuntu, too. At one point, I thought I'd wiped my 100 GB disk. But thankfully, I had not.
[12:01] <r3dux> relik77080, I'd fiddle w/ totem options
[12:01] <relik77080> r3dux: also sonbird crashes when i play a song (it has been stable so far) and I think is related
[12:02] <sohaib> Ebtihaj
[12:02] <justaquickquesti> can anyone confirm if opera is gone from the partner repository?
[12:02] <sohaib> http://www.olpc.blogsky.com
[12:02] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Um...according to this, you're using the ATI drivers.
[12:02] <r3dux> relik77080, I installed the 1.0.18 alsa to get sound working in the first place, then use asoundconf set-default-card to switch between onboard and external USB soundcards (because can't mute headphone w/ onboard) - try newest alsa
[12:02] <k21> !beryl
[12:03] <imed>  im now in vm,and i like to go to partion D tha exite sur wine
[12:03] <imed> help me
[12:03] <k21> !compbiz
[12:03] <imed>  im now in vm,and i like to go to partion D tha exite sur wine
[12:03] <k21> !compiz
[12:03] <syberjj> how do i make ubuntu join a windows network?
[12:03] <relik77080> r3dux: but sound works through vlc just fine
[12:03] <r3dux> I use compiz-fusion. It's still buggy. Using "fusion-icon" to reload window manager/decorators helps a bit
[12:03] <Lunz> tiyowan_:ok but i think the resolution is too high?but it doesnt set my screen resolution
[12:04] <relik77080> and nothing has been added or removed since yesterday when everything worked
[12:04] <r3dux> frackn eye-candy... nice when it works, mostly a pain in the a$$
[12:04] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Are you in recovery mode now?
[12:05] <pybe> syberjj, what do you mean "windows network"
[12:05] <relik77080> i just tested sound playback through the sound preferences - and theres seems to be a problem - it says connection refused
[12:05] <Lunz> tiyowan_:yes,i did not reboot yet. i already enable the ati restricted driver if i reboot now my screen will goes blank because of out of range
[12:05] <pengo> i've given up on audacity.. are there other similar apps?
[12:05] <justaquickquesti> are they updating the opera package for 9.6?
[12:05] <JollyRoger> hey does anyone use crossover for linux ?
[12:05] <syberjj> pybe - i cant get ubuntu to join the same Domain as the windows boxes (for example WORKGROUP)
[12:05] <Thurin1> JollyRoger, I've tried it - why?
[12:06] <Thurin1> The results are not much better than the latest Wine to be honest.
[12:06] <Mulletar> nothing is ever easy is it tiyowan_?
[12:06] <JollyRoger> well i just installed GTA SA with it and i need to replace the main exe file and i cant find the actual directory to let me do so lol.
[12:06] <relik77080> is there a way to reset the sound server?
[12:06] <relik77080> from the terminal?
[12:06] <Mulletar> Well my XP disk is at a friend's place so I guess that It'll have to wait eh?
[12:06] <simplexio> justaquickquesti: if i recall right, its not in ubuntu repo but .deb from opera page works
[12:06] <tiyowan_> Mulletar: Makes it fun. :-)
[12:06] <Thurin1> JollyRoger, It should usually be ~./whatever...
[12:06] <Mulletar> indeed
[12:07] <Lunz> tiyowan_:any idea?
[12:07] <pybe> syberjj, do you want to join a workgroup or a domain?
[12:07] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Okay. I want you to *activate* the ATI drivers, please. Ok? Then I need you to type a series of commands. Best if you note this down.
[12:07] <Mulletar> Well thanks again tiyowan_. I'll ttyl
[12:07] <simplexio> justaquickquesti: i have 9.6 but i dont rememeber did i install it from repos or did i just got it from opera homepage
[12:07] <JollyRoger> well i went to hom cxgames but i cant find the programs  etc..etc.. folder
[12:07] <JollyRoger> home*
[12:07] <Lunz> tiyowan_:i am ready,shoot
[12:07] <r3dux> relik77080, tried sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart ?
[12:07] <relik77080> ok so my alsa drivers are working but pulse audio has died
[12:07] <justaquickquesti> simplexio: it was in the ubuntu partner repo (version 9.26), along with flash 10
[12:07] <Lunz> tiyowan_:already activate the ati driver
[12:07] <justaquickquesti> they removed it :/
[12:08] <tiyowan_> Lunz: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop   Then:   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   Finally: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm
[12:08] <mossmon> join #ubuntu-fi-offtopic
[12:08] <syberjj> pybe - in linux its called "domain name" and is set in administration>network>general>donain name. in windows its called Workgroup. i cant get the ubuntu box to join the workgroup called JUNG
[12:08] <tiyowan_> Lunz: You'll go into text-mode okay? Don't panic. Just note down these cmds.
[12:08] <Lunz> tiyowan_:ok
[12:08] <JollyRoger> i cant figure out if the directory is hidden or what not :\
[12:09] <relik77080> r3dux: when  i pick Alsa from the sound preferences - i get sound - but pulseaudo is refusing - is there an equivalent command to restart the pulse sound driver
[12:09] <tiyowan_> Lunz: er, Finally: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[12:09] <r3dux> relik77080, sorry mate - never used pulseaudio =/
[12:09] <syberjj> relik77080 - try running the program with AOSS in front of the command
[12:09] <relik77080> i suspect a restart will fix this - but its really annoying
[12:09] <ActionParsnip2> JollyRoger: if its prefixed with a . - its hidden
[12:10] <JollyRoger> is there anyway i can view it ??
[12:10] <ActionParsnip2> JollyRoger: ls -a
[12:10] <JollyRoger> ls -a  ??? lol...
[12:10] <ActionParsnip2> relik77080: id imagine you'd be playing in /etc/init.d/
[12:10] <ActionParsnip2> JollyRoger: yes, ls -a (all)
[12:10] <r3dux> Nice one, syberjj - I'd never heard of aoss
[12:10] <ActionParsnip2> relik77080: to start and stop stuff
[12:11] <k21> is there a way to download individual updates at a time from all the available updates from one site??
[12:11] <pybe> syberjj, do you have samba installed?
[12:11] <syberjj> r3dux - i use it with wine to make wine programs use the alsa sound driver
[12:11] <relik77080> ActionParsnip2: I'm sorry thats way over my head
[12:11] <JollyRoger> i still have no clue how to view the directory with that lol...
[12:11] <ActionParsnip2> relik77080: well you stopped pulse didnt you?
[12:11] <Guest57830> can someone please tell me whre i can change the application launchers hotkey? it's driving me crazy!!! it won't open with alt+f2
[12:11] <syberjj> pybe - yes. ive tried editing the workgroup throught the smb.conf to but it still didnt help... kinda desperate here i never get samba to work
[12:12] <relik77080> syberjj: I'm aware of the aoss command - but have never needed it with native programs
[12:12] <ActionParsnip2> JollyRoger: in terminal, navigate to the directory containing the possibly hidden folder / file
[12:12] <ActionParsnip2> JollyRoger: and type ls -a
[12:12] <ActionParsnip2> !shortcuts | Guest57830
[12:12] <pybe> syberjj, is there a firewall on the box?
[12:12] <relik77080> ActionParsnip2: I just switched the preferred sound device to alsa - but when i switch back to pulse the problem persists
[12:12] <syberjj> pybe only way i got my ubuntu box to join the wokgroup i wanted was installing webmin and then changing the workgroup through it. but i dont want to isntall webmin again >.<
[12:13] <JollyRoger> it just shows the same crap, nothing new when i enter the cxgames directory
[12:13] <pybe> syberjj, is there a firewall on the box?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip2> !webmin | syberjj
[12:13] <syberjj> pybe - no no firewall
[12:13] <pengo> i've given up on audacity.. are there other similar apps?
[12:13] <syberjj> ActionParsnip2 - read again what i said, I DONT want to use it lol
[12:13] <JollyRoger> sigh..
[12:14] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj: sudo apt-get --purge remove webmin
[12:14] <Guest57830> ActionParsnip2: i tried that, but even if i change it, nothing happens (though the changemetnss are being saved)
[12:14] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj: you can change it via ssh,
[12:14] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj: your workgroup
[12:14] <pybe> syberjj, does your conf look like this http://pybe.pastebin.com/f2bf94c0c
[12:15] <relik77080> actually i have another problem too - i use deluge to download torrents - occassionally when the downloads finish - I lose network connectivity - requiring a restart too - any ideas anyone?
[12:15] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj: is it for samba sharing or just the pc in general?
[12:16] <syberjj> actionparsnip2 pybe - my config is default since i dont want to create any shares on this PC, I changed the "workgroup = JUNG" but it still didnt help (used sudeo gedit ....smb.conf). I jsut want to be able to see all computers and the samba fileserver that are in the workgroup JUNG
[12:16] <r3dux> relik77080, use ktorrent ;)
[12:16] <tiyowan_> I hope Lunz isn't stuck in text-mode. :/
[12:17] <relik77080> im on gnome - and never really liked ktorrent when i tried it back on 7.10
[12:17] <syberjj> actionparsnip2 pybe - the "windows" workgroup JUNG
[12:17] <pybe> syberjj, can you paste your conf in pastebin.com
[12:17] <r3dux> relik77080, seems okay to me, only used it since 8.10 tho
[12:17] <syberjj> pybe k sec
[12:18] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Hi. How's it going?
[12:18] <relik77080> i've been using deluge for a while now - but this problem i'm having with is new
[12:18] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj: is it for the samba shares so the PC appears in the same workgroup?
[12:18] <cladhaire> I am having an issue with detection of my touchpad on Intrepid.  Specifically 'tpconfig' properly returns finding a Synaptics Touchpad, but that's not being picked up anywhere.  Its being shown in lshal as "ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse" or "Macintosh mouse button emulation".  Both of those show up, but not the Synaptics touchpad.
[12:18] <r3dux> relik77080, downgrade deluge (if you updated it)?
[12:18] <ActionParsnip2> !downgrade | r3dux relik77080
[12:19] <syberjj> pybe - http://pybe.pastebin.com/d73b3ddeb
[12:20] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj: line 27
[12:20] <sabgenton> With hundreds of improvements and the addition of full 3G support
[12:20] <r3dux> ActionParsnip2, good point. Still occasionally a winning tactic tho
[12:20] <sabgenton> 3g?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj:    workgroup = WORKGROUP
[12:20] <cableroy> is there a dedicated channel for mdadm help out there? i got serious problem with my raid5
[12:20] <relik77080> r3dux: ActionParsnip2 could the deluge problem be related to its daemon that continues to run?
[12:20] <sabgenton> what is 3G
[12:20] <r3dux> wiki 3G
[12:21] <tiyowan_> !3G
[12:21] <syberjj> ActionParsnip2 - i have a workgroup called JUNG. in it are windows boxes and a ubuntu samba fileserver. I want to join the network JUNG with this new ubuntu box im adding to the group. i already tried changing that line do workgrou = JUNG but it didnt help, I was able to see the workgroup JUNG then but there were no other PCs in it
[12:21] <sabgenton> mobile internet?
[12:21] <Lunz> tiyowan_: can you give me the command again
[12:21] <relik77080> a workaround to the problem i've found is to disable moblock - and then reenable - but that seems like really odd behaviour
[12:21] <tiyowan_> Lunz: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop   Then:   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   Finally: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[12:22] <pybe> syberjj, you need to edit it with the workgroup name and restart samba
[12:22] <tiyowan_> From what I know, 3G is the third generation of mobile data services.
[12:22] <pybe> syberjj, http://pybe.pastebin.com/db4ad52f see the hilighted line
[12:22] <JollyRoger> lol i tried running gta sa now all i have is a white screen that i cant get out of...
[12:22] <sabgenton> its in ubuntu promotional guff so I thought it might be obvious to some
[12:22] <sabgenton> yeah
[12:22] <ActionParsnip2> pybe: i asked him if it was for samba loads :(
[12:22] <sabgenton> so it has mobile internet suport
[12:22] <sabgenton> k
[12:22] <r3dux> relik77080, moblock... ahh Just looked it up. Used to have a stack of probs w/ peerguardian. Mostly it crashing 10 mins after I'd gone to bed, taking the torrent client down w/ it
[12:22] <sabgenton> that was my first guess
[12:23] <JollyRoger> wow, i didnt expect this much trouble :\
[12:23] <pybe> ActionParsnip2, loads?
[12:23] <ActionParsnip2> pybe: lots of times
[12:24] <pybe> ActionParsnip2, i see. AFAICT he just wants to be able to browse the workgroup JUNG
[12:24] <r3dux> Are machines on the JUNG workgroup set to share anything? If not... you'll see machines, but not access anything on 'em
[12:25] <ActionParsnip2> pybe: oh, well he can. That will only change the workgroup his shares appear in if browsed from another comuter
[12:25] <syberjj> pybe to restart samba is it enough to go to administration> services and unselect samba, close it, open it again, select samba and apply?
[12:25] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[12:25] <pybe> syberjj, in console sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[12:25] <pybe> lol
[12:25] <ActionParsnip2> syberjj: that gui method is god slow
[12:25] <r3dux> grins
[12:26] <syberjj> actionparsnip2 yeah lol but i didnt remember the command... ok lets test now...
[12:26] <pybe> syberjj, all service type things are in /etc/init.d
[12:27] <relik77080> i give up - think a restart is simply the easiest solution... as long as it actually works
[12:27] <ghaleb> hello, I'm using intrepid, I can't use other screens clt+alt+F1 to F7
[12:27] <r3dux> ActionParsnip2, I've put my NAS in fstab, but it won't auto-mount - I type "sudo mount -a" and it's happy after I've entered pass - would you happen to know how to make it mount 1st time w/ no shenanigans?
[12:28] <Lunz> tiyowan_:now the ati driver is not in use :((
[12:28] <DefamedPrawn> I'm about to install a new primary hard drive. Is there any way I can just ghost my old primary partition over to the new HD?
[12:28] <pybe> r3dux, add mount -a in rc.local and it should work
[12:28] <r3dux> Soz - general question - not just to the Parsnip
[12:28] <Lunz> tiyowan_:i am running on low graphic mode as no ati driver in use
[12:29] <ActionParsnip2> r3dux: well the fstab is correct as you are only running mount -a, hmmm
[12:29] <r3dux> pybe - I'll try that, thanks.
[12:29] <tiyowan_> Lunz: Okay. So go to System -> Admin. -> Hardware Drivers -> Activate/enable them. Then try rebooting.
[12:29] <syberj1> still nothing....
[12:29] <ActionParsnip2> r3dux: maybe the fstab is being read beofre the network comes up
[12:29] <Lunz> tiyowan_:ok
[12:29] <syberj1> only change > workgroup is gone to now...
[12:29] <pybe> syberj1, weird just done it here and its worked fine.....
[12:29] <ActionParsnip2> r3dux: you could add an extra step to your bootup AFTER the lan has come up to run sudo mount -a
[12:30] <ActionParsnip2> r3dux: which would then succeed
[12:30] <syberj1> pybe - ill try it on my other box...
[12:30] <imed> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[12:30] <imed> bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
[12:30] <pybe> ActionParsnip2, yeah rc.local is ran last iirc
[12:30] <imed> cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc
[12:30] <pybe> imed, stopit
[12:30] <imed>  im now in vm,and i like to go to partion D tha exite sur wine
[12:31] <imed> how can i do
[12:31] <r3dux> ActionParsnip2 - Good thinking about the timing... there's some folder where you put 56-do-this, 89-do-that... would that be the place to chuck a mount -a ?
[12:31] <pybe> imed, what vm
[12:31] <imed> virtuel machine
[12:31] <ActionParsnip2> r3dux: afaik, those are symlinks, so create the script someplace and symlink it appropriately
[12:32] <ActionParsnip2> imed: ok what system is the VM running?
[12:32] <pybe> r3dux, sudo nano /etc/rc.local and add mount -a before the exit 0 last line
[12:32] <pybe> r3dux, reboot and it should be fine
[12:32] <imed> ubuntu versio (5,10)
[12:33] <r3dux> pybe, not /etc/init.d/rc.local? I'll do it the way you suggest - difference?
[12:33] <ActionParsnip2> imed: ok so you want a linux guest to be able to access the D: on a windows host system?
[12:33] <ghaleb> hello, the virtual consoles in Intrepid aren't working ?!
[12:33] <pybe> imed, i dont understand your situation. whats the host systems and vm software your using and what exactly are you trying to achieve
[12:34] <pengo> i've given up on audacity.. are there other similar apps for intrepid?
[12:34] <ActionParsnip2> pengo: what you trying to achieve?
[12:34] <pybe> r3dux, dont know probably a symlink anyway, I have just always added it in /etc/rc.local ....
[12:34] <imed> i would like to enter in partion D:
[12:35] <pengo> ActionParsnip2: edit audio files.. take out samples
[12:35] <pybe> imed, ubuntu doesnt have letter partitions it uses /dev/sda1 etc etc
[12:35] <imed> from ubuntu to windowes (exactly to my data in D:)
[12:35] <tiyowan_> imed: Don't you see your partitions when you click on Places?
[12:36] <kelvin911> how to unrar a file in ubuntu in terminal?
[12:36] <imed> in lunix i can see ni d: ni c:
[12:36] <jrib> !unrar | kelvin911
[12:37] <jrib> kelvin911: unrar x file.rar
[12:37] <kelvin911> i have file roller which i can unrar a file, but i want to know how to in terminal
[12:37] <kelvin911> but i dont have unrar
[12:37] <imed> """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
[12:37] <jrib> kelvin911: install it?
[12:37] <IrishDavid> hey, how can I delete downloaded deb files but apt-get that I stopped during download and dont want to install? hard drive space is at a premium
[12:37] <vinnie_> how do I access my other Hard Drives?
[12:37] <kelvin911> can i do that with fileroller in terminal?
[12:38] <jrib> kelvin911: no.  Do it like I said
[12:38]  * tiyowan_ thanks jrib.
[12:38] <jbeitler> kevin911 .tar is tar xvf file name tar.gz is tar xvfz filename
[12:38] <kelvin911> what software does the file roller use?
[12:38] <jrib> kelvin911: unrar...
[12:38] <r3dux> pybe, thanks for your help - final bit - will it be okay to just put "/bin/mount -a" - i.e. it won't glitch up about not having sudo because it's a system file already owned by root, yeah?
[12:38] <kelvin911> how come file roller doesnt have terminal command to unrar?
[12:39] <sabgenton> does wubi install grub or does it just use ntloader?
[12:39] <jrib> kelvin911: fileroller uses the unrar command from the unrar package
[12:39] <syberj2> pybe ActionParsnip2 - thanks for the help but it didnt work. i did some googling and it seems samba has some problems with changing the workgroup to names in capital letters, may that be the problem?
[12:39] <pybe> r3dux, you dont need anything other than "mount -a" in the file (well i never have)
[12:40] <r3dux> pybe - brilliant - many thanks :)
[12:40] <jrib> kelvin911: unrar is in the repositories, just install it in synaptic if you don't have it yet
[12:40] <pybe> syberj1, not on my box.... do all the computers have it as CAPS?
[12:40] <pybe> r3dux, np
[12:40] <IrishDavid> are there any large default installed progs that arent that essential that i can delete to get back some disk space? openoffice is essential
[12:40] <ActionParsnip2> pengo: could try sound-juicer maybe
[12:41] <RawIsWar> test....
[12:41] <sabgenton> !wubi grub
[12:41] <tiyowan_> IrishDavid: The default install is pretty streamlined IMHO.
[12:41] <syberj2> pybe yes....
[12:42] <r3dux> Found something about unrar/unzip etc the other day - if you want to unzip/rar all the files in a dir you have to use (for 7z for example): "7z x \*.7z" - "7z x *.7z" just falls on its ass...
[12:42] <vinnie_> anyone?
[12:42] <tiyowan_> !wubi | sabgenton
[12:42] <justaquickquesti> kelvin911: there are two versions of unrar, use the shareware version
[12:42] <kelvin911> i just did the sudo apt-get install unrar
[12:42] <syberj2> pybe - ill wait for a download to finish on the other pc i have and ill test it over there. maybe its a local thing, network card incompatibility or whatever...
[12:42] <pengo> ActionParsnip2: i'll check it out thanks
[12:42] <IrishDavid> tiyowan_: it still takes up some 3GB
[12:42] <sabgenton> tiyowan_:once it installs does it use grub or ntloader to boot?
[12:42] <syberj2> pybe if it doesnt work over there to ill come back to you guys lol
[12:43] <vinnie_> how do I access my other Hard Drives with a graphical file manager?
[12:43] <kelvin911> can i use unrar to rar files into one rar file?
[12:43] <pybe> syberj2, shouldnt be an issue..... Just now I installed samba and edited the 1st ref to WORKGROUP to my local workgroup and then looked in places and all my stuff was there
[12:43] <kelvin911> usually what is the best way to zip files in linux?
[12:43] <kelvin911> tar?
[12:43] <jrib> kelvin911: yes
[12:43] <kelvin911> why?
[12:43] <justaquickquesti> kelvin911: to create rar you have to use rar
[12:43] <pybe> kelvin911, tar czvf blah.tgz /mystuff
[12:43] <syberj2> pybe - there are about 20 computers in the JUNG group including another ubuntu box using samba and i cant see any of them
[12:44] <pengo> ActionParsnip2: it's only for ripping CDs
[12:44] <ActionParsnip2> pengo: bah
[12:44] <kelvin911> why tar is better than zip or rar?
[12:44] <kelvin911> or 7zip ?
[12:44] <r3dux> vinnie_, mount them. For a NTFS drive you'd first create a folder to mount to (sudo mkdir /mnt/windows), then use sudo mound -t NTFS /mnt/windows /dev/sdXX where xx is sda1, sdb2 -- whatever your drive is
[12:44] <r3dux> "sudo mount"
[12:44] <jrib> kelvin911: tar is just what is used more and rar isn't free
[12:44] <pybe> syberj2, can you ping and rsolve the etc? Do you have dns or wins?
[12:44] <justaquickquesti> kelvin911: depends on what you want to do with the files
[12:44] <prahal_> how do one report a bug ? I tried to use reportbug but it tells me I need to be subscribed to a list (the name of the list I forgot , having it would resolve my issue too
[12:44] <dr_willis> syberj ive noticed with the gnome file manager lately i always have to type in the proper path to the  Windows/shares for some reason.
[12:45] <jrib> !bugs | prahal_
[12:45] <dr_willis> kelvin911,  tar dozent do compression.. and its been a 'standard' for proberly 30+ years...
[12:45] <justaquickquesti> if you want to backup something for good, and rarely use it, tar it then lzma it
[12:45] <kelvin911> tar doesnt do compression?  then what can?
[12:45] <dr_willis> kelvin911,  originally tar was the tool to backup to Tape ARchives
[12:45] <pybe> kelvin911, it does
[12:45] <vinnie_> r3dux, the drives i need to access are ext3. Shouldnt there be a folder i can look in, in a graphical file manager?
[12:45] <justaquickquesti> lzma, gzip, zip, etc
[12:45] <dr_willis> kelvin911,  it can 'compress'  as an option.
[12:46] <r3dux> syberj2 - firewalls?
[12:46] <kelvin911> so what is the best way to zip files in linux?
[12:46] <kelvin911> with compression
[12:46] <pybe> kelvin911, tar czvf blah.tgz /path/to/files/
[12:46] <pengo> vinnie_: computer:///
[12:46] <tiyowan_> kelvin911: tarball.
[12:46] <kelvin911> czvf?
[12:46] <jrib> kelvin911: zip means a specific thing.  You can create zip archives too
[12:46] <syberj2> r3dux - pybe yes i can ping the other ubuntu box. i dont have any firewall setup on these boxes, its just a clean ubuntu installation
[12:46] <pybe> kelvin911, man tar
[12:46] <pengo> vinnie_: hit ctrl-L in nautalis and type/paste computer:///
[12:46] <dr_willis> z in tars case means gzip i belive.
[12:47] <syberj2> pybe wins or dns....?
[12:47] <kelvin911> tar czvf file.tar *.*?
[12:47] <justaquickquesti> kelvin911: tar -cvf whatever.tar * then lzma -9kvz whatever.tar
[12:47] <dalfz> what apt package contains glib 2.171.3 in ubuntu 8.04 lts server?
[12:47] <pybe> syberj2, did you ping via hostname?
[12:47] <kelvin911> ?
[12:47] <syberj2> pybe - no via IP
[12:47] <kelvin911> lzma?
[12:47] <vinnie_> pengo, the HD i need to access is on the same machine?
[12:47] <ActionParsnip2> pengo: http://nozell.com/blog/2004/11/13/
[12:47] <justaquickquesti> yeap
[12:48] <justaquickquesti> tar will just archive it
[12:48] <justaquickquesti> lzma will compress it
[12:48] <ActionParsnip2> dalfz: apt-file search glib
[12:48] <syberj2> pybe - the name is unknown
[12:48] <justaquickquesti> you can make tar use lzma
[12:48] <dr_willis> !info lzma
[12:48] <justaquickquesti> but I don't recall the command
[12:49] <r3dux> dalfz, do this: sudo apt-get install apt-file             then, once you have it do: apt-file search <name of file>          --- job done
[12:52] <pengo> ActionParsnip2: kwave :)
[12:53] <ActionParsnip2> pengo: if you install kwave you may find its a kde app and will need qt libs
[12:53] <r3dux> Anyone know how to set a context menu to get a zip/rar/7zip "Extract to..."/"Extract here" or such?
[12:53] <dalfz> ActionParsnip2, r3dux thanks, but i think the package libglib2.0-dev doesn't contain a high enough version. any alt repos containing 2.17.3 or later?
[12:53] <pengo> ActionParsnip2: yeah i got all that kde crap already installed
[12:53] <r3dux> in Dolphin
[12:54] <r3dux> dalfz, I don't know of any - could grab src and build..
[12:55] <ActionParsnip2> r3dux: I believe its in actions
[12:55] <tiyowan_> !irssi > tiyowan
[12:55] <tiyowan_> Hmm.
[12:56] <r3dux> ActionParsnip2, any chance of being more specific? :)
[12:56] <r3dux> Darn it
[12:57] <dalfz> r3dux yes, guess i have to
[12:57] <smokewon> hey whats a vnc CLIENT for ubuntu?
[12:57] <smokewon> not server...
[12:58] <dr_willis> smokewon,  theres several. kde and gnome both have their own. theres  several others in the repos also
[12:58] <smokewon> i need names, gnome versions if possible
[12:58] <MenZa> smokewon: How about vinagre, which comes with Ubuntu?
[12:58] <Andy80> where can I find a good guide for NetworkManager? "Help and Support" is quite useless, official docs says nothing about UMTS connections, help.ubuntu.com/community had old pages...
[12:58] <smokewon> i clicked on applications -> internet, nothing there about vinagre
[12:59] <MenZa> smokewon: It's called "Remote Desktop Viewer"
[12:59] <smokewon> ah yup, got it
[12:59] <twat> DCC SEND STARTKEYLOGGER 0 0 0
[12:59] <dalfz> are customly built libs usually going to /usr/local/lib ?
[12:59] <smokewon> thx
[13:01] <kamal> hello
[13:01] <r3dux> Andy80, UMTS sounds pretty new tech... I'd be surprised if NetworkManager was even aware of it
[13:02] <trae> I'm trying to migrate from this tmp laptop I set up ( I installed LAMP - Trac - Zenoss and a few other things )  I want to take a snapshot of this machine and put it on another machine I can use for a server.  what is the easiest path to making that happen (aside from just starting over from scratch)
[13:02] <tiyowan> !clone | trae
[13:02] <Andy80> r3dux: I'm a bit surprised of listening to that! Since it's one of the most discussed features of NetworkManager 0.7
[13:03] <r3dux> clone ftw. If you actually "clone" a drive all the h/w is diff and things flip out
[13:03] <trae> tiyowan: will that allow me to grab say all my configs and such ?
[13:03] <r3dux> Andy80, Then I'm very wrong - and I apologise for clouding the issue :)
[13:03] <tiyowan> trae: I don't think so.
[13:04] <aforgiveme> hellow,everyone!!!
[13:04] <trae> tiyowan: is there a web interfact to Ubottu?  that might be kinda nice
[13:04] <trae> s/fact/face/
[13:05] <tiyowan> trae: Yeah...I think his brain is online...hang on
[13:05] <trae> tiyowan: hehe
[13:05] <Andy80> r3dux: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-8.10-desktop
[13:05] <Bashiii> Can someone tell me some commandline MSN client that would be worth trying?
[13:06] <trae> http://jussi01.com/web/factoids.cgi
[13:06] <trae> tiyowan: that's one to bookmark for sure
[13:07] <ancker_> ...
[13:07] <r3dux> Andy80, you're right. If you have the dongle - it can work... neato
[13:08] <ancker_> dongle ???
[13:08] <tiyowan> tare: http://jussi01.com/web/ubuntu.db <- That's his brain. SQLite database.

[13:08] <r3dux> Like a USB stick, acts as an antenna for 3G networks
[13:09] <r3dux> CarlFK, did you update before upgrading?
[13:09] <CarlFK> r3dux: yes.
[13:10] <trae> hmm it doesn't like the --disable-columns argument
[13:11] <r3dux> CarlFK, server glitch? Change repo country?
[13:11] <abeck> I want to try to install a version of linux in text mode to a P1 200 mhz machine. it is to use as an FBB BBS server.
[13:11] <mib_5pkw2q> hi .... any kde/amarok2 users here  ?
[13:11] <CarlFK> abeck: u-server
[13:11] <trae> aptitude --disable-columns --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages   is that correct?
[13:11] <mib_5pkw2q> I have a problem having my MTP device detected
[13:12] <abeck> just google u-server?
[13:12] <kinley> hi there, whats THE choise for crypt mysql partitions in debian/ubuntu like system ?
[13:12] <r3dux> mib - I fixed this on mine the other day.... hold on
[13:13] <mib_5pkw2q> ok
[13:13] <CarlFK> abeck: ubuntu-server
[13:13] <trae> tiyowan: have you used that clone command yourself?
[13:14] <abeck> #msg CarlFK: ahh ubuntu text mode 8.01 sever, no gui
[13:14] <tiyowan> trae: Sorry for the delay. I'm messing around with irssi. No, I haven't used it myself.
[13:15] <CarlFK> abeck: yep
[13:15] <trae> tiyowan: kk it bombs heh
[13:15] <trae> tiyowan: (and that's not "it's the bomb" either)
[13:16] <CarlFK> abeck: there is u-server 8.10 too
[13:16] <tiyowan> trae: I'm a more...um, CLI-oriented person, so..um.
[13:16] <smokewon> so um
[13:17]  * Panarchy says Hi
[13:18] <abeck> can I assign a tty to another video card for irssi?
[13:19] <CarlFK> anyone get that aptitude clone thing to work?
[13:20] <abeck> off to google
[13:20] <abeck> thanks all
[13:20] <abeck> exit
[13:20] <abeck> quit
[13:20] <smokewon> oh bai
[13:20] <abeck> grrrrr
[13:20] <prahal_> abeck, maybe fbterm if both of your card are supported by framebuffer (you asked for console not X ?)
[13:20] <MenZa> abeck: You're missing a backslash.
[13:21] <gaelfx> my apt-get keeps telling me I have dependency errors, and when I do apt-get -f install, it wants to remove several packages, including ubuntu-desktop, any suggestion on how to fix this without removing packages?
[13:21] <Panarchy> woh
[13:21] <Panarchy> ubuntu is still buggy
[13:21] <Panarchy> gaelfx: Don't worry, won't affect you at all
[13:21] <Panarchy> just run it
[13:21] <jrib> gaelfx: pastebin commands and output and share with the channel
[13:21] <Panarchy> then to reinstall
[13:21] <Panarchy> just
[13:21] <FloodBot3> Panarchy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:21] <bazhang> gaelfx, ubuntu-desktop can be safely removed
[13:21] <Panarchy> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[13:21] <Panarchy> It's for upgrading
[13:21] <jrib> Panarchy: weren't you asked to stop using enter as punctuation several times now?
[13:21] <bazhang> !enter > Panarchy
[13:22] <Panarchy> Hahahahahhaha
[13:22] <Panarchy> whatever man
[13:22] <Panarchy> gotta go to sleep
[13:22] <Panarchy> later

[13:22] <gaelfx> http://pastebin.com/dc2f9660 is what I get from terminal
[13:22] <doseryder> I'm trying to install intrepid ibex (8.10) but when I boot into the liveCD ("Try befoer install") GNOME Desktop Environment is nothing but a black screen
[13:22] <r3dux> k
[13:22] <doseryder> I think it has to do with my screen settings
[13:23] <trae> Say you have a server already setup and good to go... and don't want to have to respend hours re-configing it.  There's no easy way or tool to process this migration for you?  this clone command from ubotu is busted and probably should be removed from ubotu.
[13:23] <Junglenut> can someone help me with a compile problem real quick?
[13:23] <tiyowan> doseryder: What graphics card do you have?
[13:23] <jrib> Junglenut: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to help you
[13:24] <Junglenut> i'm trying to comp|l3 xchat. it goes through the config script fine but fails out in make
[13:24] <truszx> hey there. Does anyone use GNS3?
[13:24] <doseryder> prior to 8.04 (e.g. gutsy gibbon), when I do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg I would be able to select what resolution modes but after 8.10 this mode selection is not available
[13:25] <doseryder> tiyowan: ati hd2600 xt (agp) and my screen is 2560x1600 at native mode
[13:25] <gaelfx> bazhang: yeah, but it also wants to remove f-spot and some about 3 other packages I don't see any good in removing
[13:25] <BeBeLuShuL> hello
[13:25] <BeBeLuShuL> does anyone know hot to set my ip to resolve my domain name ?
[13:26] <r3dux> BeBeLuShuL, reverse-dns
[13:26] <jrib> Junglenut: why are you compiling xchat?  xchat is in the repositories
[13:26] <BeBeLuShuL> yes r3dux
[13:26] <BeBeLuShuL> reverse dns
[13:26] <BeBeLuShuL> but how to set it up on my ubuntu ?
[13:26] <napnap> hi all I try to setup winbind authentification with my ubuntu, when the X session is launched, I can get domain user authentification in a console, but I can't logon with gdm except if my user exist in local...in syslog I have : "gdm[10295]: WARNING: L'utilisateur test n'est pas autorisé à se connecter à cette heure"
[13:26] <Junglenut> jrib: cuz i want it to perform better
[13:26] <BeBeLuShuL> i need to talk with my isp to do that or i can do it by myself ?
[13:27] <napnap> but in my pam configuration I don't see any pam_time module..any idea ?
[13:27] <jrib> Junglenut: so what would compiling have to do with that?
[13:27] <gaelfx> ok, I'l try restating. 'apt-get -f install' wants to remove the following packages: f-spot, fast-user-switch-applet, gnome-applets, gnome-panel and ubuntu-desktop. I don't think I want any of those removed, is it possible that my dependencies lists are out of whack? can I fix it by dumping them and re-updating?
[13:28] <jrib> gaelfx: pastebin the commands and output and share with the channel
[13:28] <doseryder> I basically like to know how to run the LiveCD at a "safe" resolution screen mode
[13:28] <Junglenut> so its made for my hardware?
[13:28] <doseryder> because at the moment, its BLACK
[13:28] <gaelfx> jrib: I did that, but no one responded: http://pastebin.com/dc2f9660
[13:28] <jrib> gaelfx: ok, but you need to include it in your questions
[13:29] <jrib> gaelfx: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list.  Have you used any unofficial repositories or installed any debs manually?
[13:29] <gaelfx> jrib: sorry, still trying to figure out how to use this place effectively
[13:29] <gaelfx> jrib: only one, QQ for linux, hold on for sources.list
[13:30] <hari_> hai there is some problem regarding about the tataindicom data card
[13:30] <hari_> hai rpm
[13:30] <doseryder> Can someone please tell me how to run the LiveCD in "Safe" resolution screen mode (i.e. low/basic resolution e.g. 800x600)
[13:30] <jrib> gaelfx: apt-cache policy f-spot libaiksaurus-1.2-0c2a gnome-panel consolekit libgnome-settings-daemon-dev libc6
[13:30] <rpmdebslac1> can i run linux on a touchscreen notebook?
[13:30] <hischild> Can someone please pastebin their default /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file?
[13:31] <doseryder> currently when the liveCD trys to load into GNOME, it is a BLACK screen
[13:31] <kelvin911> i wonder if ubuntu can use touchscreen?
[13:31] <gaelfx> jrib: sources.list is as follows: http://pastebin.com/m32b8055a
[13:31] <kelvin911> i am gonna get a dell mini netbook i wonder how to install touchscreen?
[13:32] <vazdyk> hi, how to format a floppy,a partition, or a flash-disk ?
[13:33] <hischild> Will someone paste me their /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file please? I edited mine but forgot to back it up first.
[13:33] <hari_> is there any problem regarding about tataindicom card
[13:33] <hari_> i cant connect tata indicom data card for accessing internet
[13:33] <tiyowan> doseryder: Um, alternative options, maybe?
[13:34] <xiangfu> vazdyk: fdisk /dev/****
[13:34] <gaelfx> jrib: and that command gave: http://pastebin.com/d6ab5463c

[13:37] <Tyrath> I can't connect to localhost
[13:37] <Tyrath> - on port 6667
[13:37] <n8tuser> hischild-> join me at #n8tuser
[13:37] <Tyrath> is there a special safeguard against this on ubuntu?
[13:38] <n8tuser> Tyrath-> are you serving anything on port 6667 ?
[13:38] <jrib> gaelfx: run 'sudo apt-get update' and then run your upgrade command again
[13:38] <doseryder> I also like to ask how to setup my printer (DCP-130C)
[13:39] <doseryder> Can someone gimme the gist of what I need to do
[13:39] <r3dux> doseryder, CUPS should do it, with any luck
[13:39] <jrib> doseryder: if it plays nice, you just plug it in
[13:39] <ramontayag_> hi everyone. i need a bit of help with stunnel. how do i connect that to my mail server (remote server) so my mail client (locally) will just connect to stunnel? my problem arose with this change in my program (if this'll help): http://github.com/rails/rails/commit/732c724df61bc8b780dc42817625b25a321908e4, and someone gave me this to follow http://www.stunnel.org/examples/generic_tunnel.html...
[13:39] <ramontayag_> ...but I couldn't get it to work.  I tried "sudo stunnel -c -d 50493 -r mymailserver.com:26" but when I connect to it it times out
[13:39] <FloodBot3> ramontayag_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:39] <Tyrath> n8tuser: well netstat only shows tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:41722          <IP_ADDRESS>:6667    ESTABLISHED
[13:40] <jrib> Tyrath: no.  Are you sure you have something listening on that port?
[13:40] <gaelfx> jrib: same output as before
[13:40] <r3dux> doseryder, if it doesn't, find it with "lsusb" - get the UID/PID/REV and google - you might need to add those details to an appropriate recognition file
[13:40] <doseryder> CUPS == Common Unix Printing System, but really what does it do ?  Atm, it appears it doesn't have a driver for the Brother DCP-130C
[13:40] <skoef> Tyrath: then nothing is listening on localhost
[13:40] <n8tuser> doseryder-> printer is attached to your host? parallel or serial?
[13:40] <doseryder> usb
[13:40] <skoef> Tyrath: are your trying to run an ircd or something?
[13:40] <Tyrath> skoef: so why would I be having troubles? more specifically i'm trying to connect to localhost on irssi
[13:40] <jrib> !printing > doseryder
[13:41] <DASPRiD> I have a second x-screen running on my third monitor, but the programs which have a tray icon dont appear in the systray there
[13:41] <n8tuser> Tyrath-> are you serving anything on port 6667 ?
[13:41] <Tyrath> actually... if I have pidgin running would that be the problem?
[13:41] <Tyrath> does pidgin connect on localhost/
[13:41] <r3dux> You have a third monitor?! ;)
[13:41] <hari_> i am also have problem regarding about pidgin
[13:41] <hari_> how can i connect it
[13:41] <skoef> Tyrath: ensure yourself your ircd is running and that it is listening on <IP_ADDRESS>:6667 (or ::1 of course)
[13:41] <hischild> DASPRiD, you're probably running an entirely different X session as well, meaning it'll have everyting seperated from the first session.
[13:41] <n8tuser> Tyrath-> are you serving anything on port 6667 ?  <--  are you serving ?
[13:42] <Tyrath> n8tuser: not to my knowledge, and netstat doesn't show much
[13:42] <skoef> if you're not serving anything on that port, why would you connect to it?
[13:42] <DASPRiD> hischild, uhm no they are both the same x-session i think .x
[13:42] <n8tuser> Tyrath then why do you expect your system to respond on port 6667 if you are not serving?
[13:42] <DASPRiD> just display 0.0 and 0.1
[13:42] <Tyrath> skoef: I want to run bitlbee on it
[13:43] <hischild> DASPRiD, can you drag an application from one of the screens to the third screen?
[13:43] <jrib> gaelfx: it's weird because none of my packages seem to have those dependencies
[13:43] <DASPRiD> hischild, no i don't use xinerama
[13:43] <skoef> Tyrath: make it listen on that port and bind to localhost
[13:43] <hischild> DASPRiD, then you're running different x sessions.
[13:43] <DASPRiD> ah ok :x
[13:43] <DASPRiD> so and why aren't the tray icons working?
[13:43] <Tyrath> skoef: could you help me with that?
[13:44] <core5> hai blh kenalan nggk
[13:44] <jrib> Tyrath: just intall bitlbee...
[13:44] <hischild> DASPRiD, because an application only shows on one screen, not all of em.
[13:44] <Tyrath> jrib: well i've done that
[13:44] <DASPRiD> hischild, uhm?
[13:44] <r3dux> Would someone kindly recommend a Win32 client to display an X session? I used to have it set up in work years ago... but can't for the life of me remember the name
[13:44] <skoef> include DaemonInterface = <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:44] <DASPRiD> hischild, i'm just talking about the second screen
[13:44] <skoef> and DaemonPort = 6667
[13:44] <Tyrath> skoef: i've done that aswell
[13:44] <hischild> DASPRiD, yes?
[13:44] <skoef> in your bitlbee.conf
[13:44] <DASPRiD> pidgin runs on the second screen, but doesnt appear in the systray of the second screen
[13:44] <Tyrath> skoef: and that
[13:44] <skoef> Tyrath: ps wuax | grep bitlbee ?
[13:44] <jrib> Tyrath: then it's already running.
[13:44] <hischild> DASPRiD, i don't know then ...

[13:45] <Tyrath> jrib: i need an IRC client to connect to localhost or a public server to run it
[13:45] <doseryder> r3dux, mm... what is a recognition file?  and the results from lsusb is: Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04f9:01a8 Brother Industries, Ltd
[13:46] <acer_> how can I install flash plugin trhou terminal?
[13:46] <jrib> Tyrath: just point your irc client at localhost
[13:46] <jrib> acer_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[13:46] <allsystemsarego> r3dux, xming
[13:46] <jrib> gaelfx: do what -f suggest and we'll reinstall
[13:46] <gaelfx> jrib: I think I'm gonna try to dump the lists and redownload
[13:46] <Tyrath> jrib: /connect localhost ? because i keep getting connection refused
[13:46] <skoef> Tyrath: what does netstat say now?
[13:46] <acer_> Thanks jrib :)
[13:46] <skoef> anything with LISTEN in it?
[13:46] <allsystemsarego> r3dux, google for xming sourceforge
[13:47] <Tyrath> skoef: tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:41722          <IP_ADDRESS>:6667    ESTABLISHED 25873/irssi
[13:47] <skoef> that's your irssi connecting to another host
[13:47] <skoef> obviously
[13:48] <DASPRiD> anyone else @ x-session + systray?
[13:48] <r3dux> doseryder, Everything USB needs to be recognised - a VID/PID/REV are the Vendor ID, Product ID and Revision of a USB device - if a driver doesn't know these, it won't work. Some hardware uses the same bits and pieces as others and can me made to work by providing a link between the details the USB dev provides and a working driver
[13:48] <Tyrath> skoef: does that mean the problem is that i should be connecting to that host on another port?
[13:48] <Tyrath> skoef: and connecting to localhost on 6667?
[13:49] <jrib> DASPRiD: english?
[13:49] <r3dux> doseryder, I know how to do it in windows, not linux, unfortunately. Google "cups vid rev" or smth to find appropriate file to mod
[13:49] <Guest1749> hi
[13:49] <cool> r3dux ... i have a samsung i450 phone ... i can see it from mtp-detect
[13:49] <cool> amarok2 however fails to show any output when I connect
[13:50] <veltsu> and I'm back with another tough question about getting ubuntu to work on my laptop. Today's topic: "Soundcard, acer 5100 and Ubuntu 8.10; a deadly combination or a match made in heaven?" Jeanine, who's our first caller?
[13:50] <gaelfx> jrib: ok, just so I get this straight, you think I should do what -f install suggests and then try reinstalling ubuntu-desktop?
[13:50] <Tyrath> hmm
[13:50] <Tyrath> gonna try a few things
[13:50] <Tyrath> thanks for the help
[13:50] <r3dux> cool - I had to put "tifm_core" and "tifm_sd" lines in /etc/modules to get my MTP stuff to conn.
[13:50] <n8tuser> Tyrath-> you are mis-understanding the results of netstat,  that shows both incoming and outgoing connections
[13:51] <jrib> gaelfx: yes
[13:51] <jrib> gaelfx: nothing there is essential anyway
[13:52] <mrfelton> hi
[13:52] <eoeoeoe> hello
[13:52] <Guillem> I've installed intrepid at my brand new eee-901. I wish  to use my eee for presentations, but when I connect to thing to the projector, I can setup the second screen, but it is always the one having the gnome panel. How can I do it otherwise?
[13:52] <gaelfx> well, I just did sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf to see if maybe something downloaded improperly (happens a  lot in  China), but if that doesn't work, I'll do it your way
[13:52] <veltsu> has anyone ever had any problems with their soundcard and ubuntu 8.10?  I'll follow their example and cross my fingers. I'm not sure if crossing your fingers would help but just in case, if you don't mind... :)
[13:57] <bakermd> I need for a program on my Ubuntu box to be able to send me email.  It wants to connect to a server on port 25 but does not support SSL - so I need to get an email server running locally on the box - whats the best way to achieve this?
[13:57] <gaelfx> jrib: so right after I do the -f install stuff, should I try to reinstall ubuntu-desktop?
[13:57] <jrib> gaelfx: yeah
[13:57] <SidGBF> Does anyone knows how to install a quake3 or cs server?
[13:57] <n8tuser> mrfelton-> kill the init  the parent of all your user processes
[13:57] <r3dux> veltsu, script worked for me. Just dl and run
[13:58] <r3dux> veltsu, then reboot
[13:58] <allsystemsarego> bakermd, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer
[13:58] <mann26> anyone can help me pls, my partition could not be shown in desktop, only cd rom
[13:58] <veltsu> r3dux, my kernel is 2.6.29 (if I remember correctly). Do you have any idea if it might be unwise to run on a newer kernel than 2.6.28 which they talk about?

[13:59] <Pici> veltsu: 2.6.29 doesn't exist.
[13:59] <mann26> i make 3 partition and the last is awap  partititon
[13:59] <Pici> veltsu: Perhaps you mean 2.6.27-9
[13:59] <veltsu> haha, maybe so :D
[14:00] <veltsu> well, I'll run that script and see what happens
[14:00] <veltsu> I don't remember John Titor installing anything on my laptop so I don't know...
[14:00] <gaelfx> jrib: synaptic says that all those other packages are needed but won't be installed :S
[14:00] <jrib> gaelfx: pastebin
[14:01] <r3dux> veltsu, not a clue. I've got the lastest repo'd kernel - no probs.
[14:02] <AltinT> hello, is it possible to have my Windows shared folder running even when I'm running ubuntu?
[14:02] <gaelfx> jrib: http://pastebin.com/d24d5b237
[14:03] <n8tuser> AltinT-> windows shared folder never runs..ever.. a folder could not run, but an application does
[14:04] <AltinT> n8tuser: you know what i mean ... i want it to be a shared folder, even when windows isn't running ...
[14:04] <jrib> gaelfx: install gnome-panel directly and pastebin the errors
[14:05] <n8tuser> AltinT-> i dont know what you meant, but if you meant your folder can be mounted and shared, then that is possible
[14:05] <gaelfx> jrib: http://pastebin.com/d446c99ba
[14:06] <sachael> anyone know the mime type for folders? It was something with "inode" in it?
[14:06] <AltinT> n8tuser: yes that's what i need: i want the folder to be visible on the network, right now, i don't have any shared folder at all visible on my other windows machine
[14:06] <AltinT> n8tuser: any idea how i do that?
[14:06] <gaelfx> it looks like I need to figure out where the dependency files are and rebuild them somehow
[14:06] <jesper_> Anyone help me with conky script?
[14:06] <jrib> gaelfx: apt-cache show gnome-panel
[14:06] <n8tuser> AltinT-> google for how samba/cifs works
[14:07] <AltinT> n8tuser: ok thanks
