[19:35] <wweasel> L3ttuc3: No. Right now I have my root on IDE1, cd on IDE2, home on SATA controller card.
[19:35] <ffm> Voyage_: uh, Sys>Admin>Soft. Sources
[19:35] <Jack_Sparrow> deniz_: I have had issues doing that when dependencies come up, I had better luck using a ubuntu machine for the apt-get and copying /var/cache/apt/archives to a cd or usb...
[19:35] <ffm> ubuntu: sorry, I can't help then
[19:35] <Voyage_> k
[19:35] <wweasel> L3ttuc3, I'll try playing around with it. Be back soon.
[19:36] <AstorZZZ> mjw,i managed to run gparted using sudo gparted rootpwd
[19:36] <unicum> is the libflashplayer the only mozilla plugin that plays flash files or can i teach the mozillaplugin-mplayer to do so too, somehow?
[19:36] <L3ttuc3> wweasel well, good luck.
[19:36] <AstorZZZ> but all menus and buttons are disabled
[19:36] <AstorZZZ> why?
[19:36] <wweasel> L3ttuc3, Thanks for your help!
[19:36] <ubuntu> ffm : thanks anyway :(
[19:36] <sier> hi
[19:36] <sier> Why is Ubuntu so easy? :(
[19:36] <mjw-> AstorZZZ you can't modify partitions and drives that are mounted and being written too...things could get hairy
[19:36] <sier> I feel like I have no control at all
[19:37] <ffm> sier: no control?
[19:37] <deniz_> ffm, it takes long to unrar in linux for some reason so ill be bak later bout that...
[19:37] <Voyage_> icant find one.  theres no repository that gives inspircd?
[19:37] <AstorZZZ> mjw-, So how can i resize ntfs partition from ubuntu live cd?
[19:37] <tentonsnowflake> would anyone know an app to change gtk2 iconthemes (for thunar, etc.) in fluxbox?
[19:37] <AstorZZZ> Or i cant?
[19:37] <deniz_> Jack_Sparrow, k, so ill download the things now
[19:37] <ffm> sier: explain.
[19:37] <mjw-> AstorZZZ so you're saying you've used gparted on the live cd and everything is inaccessible?
[19:37] <amenado> sier try using broadcom bmc43xx wifi chips and lets see if you control
[19:37] <AstorZZZ> mjw-, yes
[19:37] <iqbala> how do I install times roman font ?
[19:37] <amenado> sier try using broadcom bmc43xx wifi chips and lets see if you have* control
[19:38] <AstorZZZ> except for refresh devices and show features :D
[19:38] <sier> I installed it, just chose the HD partitions, it loaded KDE already, dunno :P maybe im just used to have to compile and do everything
[19:38] <ffm> !times > iqbala
[19:38] <wallacew> iqbala: i believe the package is ms-ttffonts or something like. apt-cache search
[19:38] <mjw-> AstorZZZ and you booted from the live CD too to start it? I'm not sure why it wouldn't work then
[19:38] <AstorZZZ> i booted ubunto from live cd
[19:38] <sier> I felt like.. "Did i get the windows CD " ?
[19:38] <AstorZZZ> i ran gparted in terminal
[19:38] <AstorZZZ> using sudo gparted rootpwd
[19:38] <andreus__> ffm, it didn't help. still taskbar hasn't shown up
[19:39] <AstorZZZ> i coudnt run it otherwise because you cant run gparted without root privileges
[19:39] <Soludra> Is it possible to revert from Gutsy to Feisty, if you've only ever installed Gutsy? I've got an HP Pavilion dv9000, and apparently there's a lot that's unsupported on Ubuntu with it...
[19:39] <mjw-> AstorZZZ true. I don't know why you wouldn't be able to modify things then, unless you had partitions from the drive mounted.
[19:39] <deniz_> Jack_Sparrow, i have gutsy on this comp and feisty on laptop so will sudo apt-getting here and transfering still work?
[19:39] <thechitowncubs> I am trying to sort out my permissions for my Home Network, where can I start learning about how to maintain users and groups across the network?
[19:39] <ballin> whats the command to clean out the things that don't fully install through terminal?
[19:39] <ConstyXIV> is there some way to trigger your webcam to take a picture on a bad login/unlock?
[19:39] <ballin> i recieved it yesterday but now i have to clean it out again
[19:40] <thechitowncubs> I was wondering if there is any useful way to sync permissions and users/passwords across the network
[19:40] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: you mean cleaning apt-get cache?
[19:40] <BernardB> How can I convert avi to mp4 in Ubuntu Gutsy (Gnome)?
[19:40] <ballin> yes
[19:40] <ConstyXIV> ballin: sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a IIRC
[19:40] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: cause then its "sudo apt-get clear"
[19:40] <danand_> ballin - sudo apt-get clean
[19:40] <AstorZZZ> mjw-, let's assume drive is mounted(i didnt do it on purpose though), how do i unmount it?
[19:40] <RainCT> Hi
[19:40] <Jack_Sparrow> deniz_: I would think so, but you could also change your sources to feisty sources if you want to be sure
[19:40] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: no, sorry
[19:40] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: "sudo apt-get clean"
[19:41] <mohbana> anyone playing unreal tournament on ubuntu?
[19:41] <ballin> tenton: i just tried installing pidgin, goto through make and it ended because i have no more hard drive space. so now i was wondering how to get rid of the files it created
[19:41] <ballin> thank you all
[19:41] <mjw-> AstorZZZ in the file manager, rightclick the partitions and choose unmount
[19:41] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: apt-get clean only cleans apt-get caches
[19:41] <Jack_Sparrow> ballin: No need to make pidgin, would you like a deb of the latest?
[19:41] <ffm> andreus__: then its a compiz issue.
[19:41] <RainCT> I just created a new session but I have no sound here (the applet has an image with an X and clicking on it says that it didn't find any sound device). Any idea what the problem could be? (The user is in the admin group).
[19:42] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: to remove files you compiled, youll have to find them all, i guess...
[19:42] <ballin> jack sparrow: a deb?
[19:42] <Soludra> Is it possible to revert from Gutsy to Feisty, and how? I've got an HP Pavilion dv9000, and apparently there's a lot that's unsupported on Ubuntu with it...
[19:42] <ballin> tenton: the search is on!
[19:42] <ffm> andreus__: in a terminal: do the following: "mv .gnome2.old .gnome2; metacity --replace &"
[19:42] <Jack_Sparrow> ballin: Yes, a double click to install soultion for what you are trying to do
[19:42] <danand_> ballin - make uninstall ??
[19:42] <deniz_> Jack_Sparrow, k, well ill try first the way it is...so the first thing is done
[19:42] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: :)
[19:42] <bazhang> Soludra: no
[19:42] <AstorZZZ> mjw-, done, harddrive unmounted, rerun gparted, still everything disabled
[19:43] <Soludra> =|
[19:43] <AstorZZZ> funny thing is - it wrote, it's safe to remove the harddrive
[19:43] <tentonsnowflake> danand_: would that also work with a partial compile?
[19:43] <ballin> jack
[19:43] <ballin> :install solution?
[19:43] <mjw-> AstorZZZ try rebooting again with the livecd...the livecd, afaik, should not be automounting partitions on bootup.
[19:43] <danand_> tentonsnowflake - not sure ;) - but worth a go maybe
[19:43] <phuzion> what is apport?
[19:44] <ballin> danand make unstall you say?
[19:44] <deniz_> Jack_Sparrow, it says to extrract driver but the cd has it alredy exe so that means no extraction right? and were do i put the driver?
[19:44] <sier> Am I Sick? for not liking easy stuff..
[19:44] <tentonsnowflake> danand_: youre right ;)
[19:44] <phuzion> because it just farted all over my system and ate memory and CPU like crazy
[19:44] <TitoN> Ställer in bitchx (1:1.1-4ubuntu4) ...
[19:44] <TitoN> warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc does not exist or is not a directory
[19:44] <AstorZZZ> mjw-, gparted shows status - no devices detected
[19:44] <TitoN> what is wrong there?
[19:44] <Jack_Sparrow> ballin: getdeb.net...  3 files.. remove the old pidgin FIRST..ok
[19:44] <deniz_> Jack_Sparrow, but honestly thats like half the problem i still cant like give the signal from desktop cuz firestarter is givin me problems
[19:44] <ballin> and where do files usually get stored in ubuntu (like program files for wnidows)
[19:44] <bazhang> sier no but unusual here ;]
[19:44] <AstorZZZ> ok, i'll try rebooting
[19:44] <naknomik> I downloaded an .rpm from the Adobe site, how do I install it?
[19:44] <jrib> naknomik: an rpm for what?
[19:45] <bjames> I can create .tar.bz2 files using "tar -jcf <file.tar.bz2> file", but how do I create .tar.bz files? (using the --old-archive switch??)
[19:45] <mjw-> AstorZZZ make sure not to try to mount any partitions or access any files on the hard drive
[19:45] <Jack_Sparrow> deniz_: Why are you running an iptable manager?  need to open ports for something
[19:45] <danand_> ballin - if you did the usual ie make, make install then you _maybe_ able to make uninstall - worth a try
[19:45] <Pie-rate> is anyone successfully using dialup from a major ISP with ubuntu? if so, which? AOL doesn't work, so I'm trying to switch my friend to something that does.
[19:45] <esc> how do i go into cube mode with compiz fusion
[19:45] <ballin> dan: i didn't get to the install part, just make
[19:45] <Jack_Sparrow> !cube
[19:45] <ubotu> Compiz-Fusion (and the older Compiz and Beryl) are window managers that employ the "composite" extension of X to draw windows using graphics cards' 3D hardware. They can additionally provide "desktop special effects" (such as the "cube") by means of plug-ins. Join #compiz-fusion for help and support with advanced features. See also « /msg ubotu compiz » and « /msg ubotu effects »
[19:45] <jrib> Pie-rate: netscape works fine with wvdial
[19:45] <deniz_> Jack_Sparrow, wats an iptable manager?...all i did was install firestarter and run it and folowing instructions and it says that one of the things is not redy and i assume its my wireless card
[19:45] <esc> Jack_Sparrow: thanks
[19:46] <Pie-rate> jrib: what's wvdial?
[19:46] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: well then you havent even installed anything yet... :)
[19:46] <white_eagle> where are the backups of the xorg.conf kept?
[19:46] <jrib> Pie-rate: a program
[19:46] <jrib> !dialup > pie-rate (read the private message from ubotu)
[19:46] <white_eagle> I need this, its urgent
[19:46] <ballin> tenton: so the make doesn't install any files or anything?
[19:46] <danand_> ballin - in that case I don't think anything would have been installed on your system - just remove the files that the make command created
[19:46] <jrib> white_eagle: /etc/X11/
[19:46] <RainCT> nvm, found the problem
[19:46] <WaiXan> How does I save this script? http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-255924.html
[19:46] <Jack_Sparrow> deniz_: May X windows users think they need a firewall and stick one in , when they really dont understand how linux handles the ports
[19:46] <mjw-> white_eagle /etc/X11/xorg.conf.1 etc
[19:47] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: i believe it just compiles and makes files ready for installation
[19:47] <Jack_Sparrow> !firewall | danand_
[19:47] <ubotu> danand_: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[19:47] <deniz_> Jack_Sparrow, im sry for being stupid :(...
[19:47] <acee1234> are there any linux distro that work as well as windows and are still gui? ive tried ubuntu kubuntu ubuntu ultimate
[19:47] <ballin> tenton: it installed something because i have no free space left on this partition
[19:47] <jrib> WaiXan: copy and paste it into a text editor
[19:47] <Jack_Sparrow> deniz_: The only stupid question is one you dont bother to ask
[19:47] <WaiXan> And save it as?
[19:47] <DRebellion> acee1234, no, sorry. they all tend to be a bit better...
[19:47] <ballin> dan: anyway to find those files?
[19:47] <white_eagle> mjw-, and how can I move the backup to replace the original
[19:47] <jrib> WaiXan: whatever you want
[19:47] <white_eagle> with what command?
[19:47] <deniz_> Jack_Sparrow, wat is it?
[19:47] <tentonsnowflake> ballin: agree with danand
[19:47] <danand_> ballin - make just compiles the program, it doesn't install anything
[19:47] <WaiXan> jrib: No  *name*.sh or something?
[19:48] <wo0f> hi, remove the whole sudo thing, and run ubuntu like debian?
[19:48] <jrib> WaiXan: it doesn't matter, linux doesn't care about that stuff
[19:48] <Pie-rate> jrib: i have the modem working fine, it's a serial modem that just worked. i'm just looking for an isp that doesn't suck like aol does.
[19:48] <wo0f> hi, can remove the whole sudo thing, and run ubuntu like debian?
[19:48] <mjw-> white_eagle cd /etc/X11; sudo mv (backup file name) xorg.conf
[19:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !firewall
[19:48] <fantum13> Is there any way to resize an encrypted partition with an LVM on it?
[19:48] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[19:48] <wallacew> L3ttuc3, I got it happy with the CD drive, now it doesn't like its SATA drive anymore :P
[19:48] <ubuntu> so can anyone help me on how to re-install or re-configure my grub ?
[19:48] <acee1234>  DRebellion:  my experiance has been the reverse every instillation i tried came with a host of patches to make the sytem usable and there were many issues no one coud solve
[19:48] <recon> ubuntu: have you tried grub-install?
[19:48] <buggles> I recently did an update, and the Plugins for compiz fusion dont show. do you know how to fix this OR how to downgrade from the update
[19:48] <jrib> Pie-rate: right, but that page should also tell you about the software involved including "wvdial"
[19:48] <amenado> wo0f-> what are you talking about? this is not debian channel so we may not know what debian is like
[19:48] <joecurlee> hi, can anyone recommend a tv tuner card that is compatible with 7.10 ?
[19:48] <danand_> ballin - the files should all be in the same directory you ran the make command in
[19:49] <wallacew> joecurlee, Hauppauge cards are excellent.
[19:49] <DRebellion> !hcl | joecurlee
[19:49] <L3ttuc3> wallacew something to do with the additional card then?
[19:49] <ubotu> joecurlee: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection
[19:49] <Pie-rate> jrib: so the normal interface doesn't work?
[19:49] <WaiXan> How does I make it executable then?
[19:49] <recon> wo0f: you mean have a root account?
[19:49] <DRebellion> WaiXan, chmod +x script
[19:49] <jrib> Pie-rate: I don't know what you mean by "normal interface"
[19:49] <Yellow> hi all
[19:49] <buggles> !downgrade
[19:49] <ubotu> Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[19:49] <JustV> hello
[19:49] <ballin> dan: duh.... alright, i deleted the pidgin directory and it freed up some room. i figured i would have a bit more space though, because it fit it perfectly you know?
[19:49] <wo0f> recon: yeh
[19:49] <joecurlee> they bot is now help here, there are no tuner cards listed that i see
[19:49] <JustV> [apache] how i can make 2 web sites on different vhost's and on 1 ip?
[19:49] <Pie-rate> jrib: well, gutsy includes network-manager
[19:49] <fantum13> Is there any way to resize an encrypted partition with an LVM on it? I'd like to install a windows dual-boot.
[19:49] <recon> wo0f: your poison. "sudo passwd root"
[19:49] <WaiXan> Thanks
[19:50] <wo0f> recon: oooh, and what will that do?
[19:50] <recon> wo0f: it'll create a root account you can get to by sudo.
[19:50] <ubuntu> recon : yup , didn't change anythin . i have an error 15 that makes it fail to load !
[19:50] <cakedonkey> fantum:  Have you considered using a VM instead?
[19:50] <danand_> ballin - just do sudo apt-get install pidgin
[19:50] <wo0f> recon: cheers :D
[19:50] <jrib> Pie-rate: by the way did you see penggy in the repositories?  penggy - connects to AOL via modem or TCP/IP
[19:50] <wallacew> joecurlee, Check out the Mythbuntu wiki: they list the supported cards under Gusty
[19:50] <joecurlee> wallacew: thanks :)
[19:50] <jrib> Pie-rate: maybe it works, I never used it with that.
[19:50] <kanpachi> hello , i'm using a mac mini , i managed to install 7.10 on it, but i want to install 7.04 instead, 7.04 installs fine  but won't boot, is it possible to copy the grub from 7.10 or something to make it work in 7.04?
[19:50] <recon> ubuntu: ...you formatted a partition, didn't you.

[19:51] <elementz> hi everybody
[19:51] <wo0f> recon: nice one, cheers for the help
[19:52] <jrib> Pie-rate: for netscape, you just dial a number and provide username and password.  No special software
[19:52] <ballin> byee
[19:52] <Yellow> warriorforgod: what's to configure about it?
[19:52] <elementz> trying to get irssi to output speech via festival tts engine
[19:52] <recon> ubuntu: well, a file it needs to load isn't there. that's what error 15 is. try booting into a liveCD and mounting your drive, then check the menu.lst.
[19:52] <naknomik> how do I find out whether my ubuntu install is 32 bit of 64?
[19:52] <danand_> ballin - ok - you could always try giving yourself a bit more room by resizing partitions with gparted. Good luck for future
[19:52] <jrib> naknomik: uname -a
[19:52] <warriorforgod> Yellow: I want it to go slower.  In old versions of ubuntu there was a configure button in the screensaver options.
[19:52] <elementz> found a pl script here http://www.speechio.org/speech.irc.html
[19:52] <Yellow> naknomik: type "uname -m" at the command line
[19:52] <elementz> maybe somebody got a clue on how to implement that?

[19:55] <Tiven> ere4si but , isnt 64bit a lot faster ?
[19:55] <bazhang> jcg42: yes
[19:56] <jrib> WaiXan: put it in /usr/local/bin/.  You'll need sudo.  Do you know how to do that?
[19:56] <WaiXan> jrib: Nope

[19:56] <Yellow> jrib> the thing is, it doesn't show up in the restricted drivers. I originally tried to ./NVIDIAblablabla.run
[19:56] <Tiven> ere4si you are using 32bit ?
[19:57] <jrib> Yellow: what card?

[19:58] <Yellow> jrib: and "nvidia-xconf" doesn't seem to have any effect
[19:58] <Tiven> ere4si im already downloading 32bit alternate ( of course the live cd wont run at all......... )
[19:58] <ere4si> Tiven, get the alternate cd then
[19:58] <Tiven> u use 32bit ?
[19:58] <deniz_> erhanr, i dont no much bout apache xept its probly for making websites...sry
[19:58] <jrib> WaiXan: sudo cp /home/zander/shot /usr/local/bin
[19:59] <macogw> jcg42: why do you need nvidia's drivers?  they're just for 3D acceleration, and i can't imagine what 3D accelerated command line apps you've managed to find
[19:59] <Yellow> lol
[19:59] <jrib> Yellow: you're on 7.10?
[19:59] <ere4si> Tiven, yep - most apps are written 32bit
[19:59] <Yellow> yup
[19:59] <Lattyware> OK, anyone have any ideas for recovering a lost partition table when gpart and testdisk return nothing?
[19:59] <ffm> how do I reconfigure X11? X crahses the computer.
[19:59] <Yellow> jrib: yes, the 64 bit version
[19:59] <erhanr> okie
[19:59] <Tiven> ere4si is it cause your cpu doesnt support that or cause it doesnt have good support yet ?
[19:59] <macogw> deniz_: it serves them up.  making is done in a text editor.  so when apache is running and another computer says to the computer running apache "hey im looking for website x" apache goes "oh ok, lemme find it... here ya go!"
[19:59] <nickrud> ffm: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg   (don't use -phigh if you want to answer _all_ questions)
[20:00] <jcg42> bazhang, No, I want to make a file server on an old P4 with a Nvidia card and I was wondering if installing the official drivers would help with performance.
[20:00] <ubuntu> recon : menu.lst exists !
[20:00] <macogw> ffm: im very very surprised to see YOU ask that
[20:00] <jrib> Yellow: I don't know why Restricted Driver Manager doesn't offer to install it then.  I'd check bugs.ubuntu.com first.  In any case, the wiki should link to instructions on how to manually install the drivers.  NvidiaManual or similar is the name of the page
[20:00] <ere4si> Tiven, 'cause of the lack of support - will take a couple of years more for the apps to change
[20:00] <archangelpetro> !kile > archangelpetro
[20:00] <danand_> ffm - have you looked at /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if there are any error messages - that may help you out some
[20:00] <acee1234>  if you dont have any ideas about the following then who might i ask: im having a host of problems with ubuntu's graphics but cant seem to get anyone's attention im running ati x1400 and running the restricted drivers direct rendering return yes but everything flickers window movement scrolling etc online movie playback is horrible and even by typing is delayed at times. any ideas? im not runnng compiz. if you dont have any
[20:01] <Tiven> ere4si alright ! 7 more minutes until the download finishes ! hope everything works then !
[20:01] <bazhang> jcg42: how old? what card? you may want the legacy cards iirc
[20:01] <hacked_kernel> how to mount external usb hard drive?
[20:01] <ere4si> Tiven, good luck - gotta go - bye :)
[20:01] <erhanr> macogw:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55406/   can you understand it problem?
[20:01] <Yellow> jrib: I was already afraid that this was a non-evident problem (as usual when I have problems x-( ) I'll go on reading then how to do it manually
[20:01] <bazhang> err drivers I mean jcg42
[20:01] <archangelpetro> is anyone aware of a package for ubuntu that can be used for voice chat (not including skype, because of course i dont trust it)
[20:01] <WaiXan> jrib: It didn't move
[20:01] <fantum13> I have an encrypted LVM on my system, is there any way for me to resize it so that I can make another partition outside of the LVM?
[20:01] <psycholvlan> I got my nvidia drivers installed and i got my resolution and all but I can't get desktop effects to work... anyone know what I can do?
[20:01] <nickrud> bazhang: the nvidia driver has no effect on console
[20:01] <jrib> WaiXan: tell me the output
[20:02] <hypa7ia> hey folks
[20:02] <WaiXan> jrib: There was none
[20:02] <hypa7ia> anyone know how i un-filter hidden files in brasero?
[20:02] <hypa7ia> my googling has been fruitless
[20:02] <nickrud> psycholvlan: what video card?
[20:02] <LordOfThePigs> Hello! For some reason, I can't type the ǎ character. However, xev does receive an even with the right character. Does anybody have an idea why?
[20:02] <psycholvlan> nvidia 8800gtx
[20:02] <fantum13> archangelpetro: Ekiga, its installed by default, too
[20:02] <bazhang> nickrud: clearly but he wants it for a file server with x apparently
[20:02] <jrib> WaiXan: I made it copy, not move.  So it should be there.  Now make it executable with 'sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/shot'
[20:02] <DRebellion> hypa7ia, its ctrl+h in nautilus, perhaps the same for brasero?
[20:02] <nickrud> bazhang: he said command line only
[20:02] <jcg42> bazhang, Well my question was: Do I need to install them if it's only a command line system?
[20:02] <psycholvlan> the nvidia-glx is the issue i think
[20:02] <LordOfThePigs> Is there some character filtering in ubuntu, based on the locale you are using?
[20:02] <bazhang> jcg42: haha no
[20:02] <hypa7ia> DRebellion: i can see the hidden files, it just filters them :( and i can't find the option to turn it off
[20:03] <psycholvlan> under nvidia settings/OpenGL/GX it said the GLX server failed to query
[20:03] <macogw> erhanr: it wants you to have the actual domain name of the server on the same line as localhost. if it's not really a webserver, just you messing around on the local box, it doesnt matter.  that warning doesnt break anything
[20:03] <recon> ubuntu: alright, check the contents.
[20:03] <nickrud> psycholvlan: don't know about that card, except for the release notes for the latest nvidia release saying it now provides support for the 8800gt
[20:03] <psycholvlan> I had it working on my other monitor... but i'm at friends and a diff monitor
[20:03] <bazhang> nice catch nickrud
[20:04] <archangelpetro> fantum13, is ekiga as dodgy as skype? (i.e. does it allow traffic to be routed through your connection?)
[20:04] <psycholvlan> i had to reinstall the drivers when I got to my friends
[20:04] <nickrud> bazhang: just paying back for your catches
[20:04] <fantum13> archangelpetro: I wouldn't be the one to ask, however, its FOSS, so you should be able to find out.
[20:04] <jrib> WaiXan: tell me the output of 'ls /usr/local/bin'
[20:04] <WaiXan> It won't find it :( zander@zander-desktop:~$ shoot test.jpg
[20:04] <WaiXan> bash: shoot: command not found
[20:04] <WaiXan> zander@zander-desktop:~$
[20:04] <erhanr> macogw: must i write my domain name near <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[20:04] <Comrade-Sergei> i cannot get my ubuntu to find my wifi card, it sees it in lspci though
[20:04] <jrib> WaiXan: you said it was called "shot", not "shoot"
[20:04] <ubuntu> recon : already checked by me and a couple of other users and nuthin :)
[20:04] <bazhang> nickrud: haha not so--you get me everytime
[20:04] <archangelpetro> fantum13, i'm aware that FOSS means 'open source' but what exactly does it stand for?
[20:05] <recon> ubuntu: and you _have_ tried "sudo grub-install /dev/partition", where partition is your root ubuntu partition, right?
[20:05] <nickrud> bazhang: you are too kind, you let them slip your mind ;)
[20:05] <WaiXan> jrib: I tried both
[20:05] <jrib> WaiXan: tell me the output of 'ls -l /usr/local/bin'
[20:05] <jrib> !paste | WaiXan
[20:05] <ubotu> WaiXan: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[20:05] <recon> ubuntu: other than that, i'm out of advice.
[20:05] <fantum13> archangelpetro: Free Open Source Software
[20:05] <archangelpetro> :D
[20:05] <archangelpetro> ty
[20:06] <bazhang> haha not really you are too humble
[20:06] <hacked_kernel> how to mount external usb hard drive?
[20:06] <macogw> erhanr: umm i think so...or at least the hostname, but it says "fully qualified domain name"
[20:06] <ffm> macogw: I knew the command, I just forgot the package name.
[20:06] <jrib> hacked_kernel: plug it in
[20:06] <macogw> erhanr: i dont have a webserver going so im not sure
[20:06] <macogw> ffm: ah ic
[20:06] <zelrikriando> which repos is it for emerald-themes again?
[20:06] <hacked_kernel> jrib: I did but it did mount it
[20:06] <zelrikriando> a friend of me cannot find it
[20:06] <cokencode> hey guys
[20:06] <jrib> hacked_kernel: is it formatted?
[20:06] <ffm> macogw: and I have learned to hate ATI drivers!!!
[20:06] <deniz_> macogw, is that wat i need to share my internet connectioN!?!
[20:06] <WaiXan> jrib: 'ls -l /usr/local/bin' = total 0
[20:06] <hacked_kernel> jrib: sure
[20:06] <ffm> macogw: whenever I use them, my X die.
[20:06] <ffm> s
[20:06] <cokencode> i just downloaded and am now using the live xubuntu cd
[20:06] <nickrud> erhanr: having the hostname will prevent that message, but it's not required. apache runs fine without
[20:06] <erhanr> i just wanted try wordprss
[20:06] <L3ttuc3> that's not good, is it? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55411/
[20:07] <cokencode> i thought xubuntu came with much more security stuff
[20:07] <Comrade-Sergei> i cannot get my ubuntu to find my wifi card, it sees it in lspci though
[20:07] <cokencode> hmmm
[20:07] <cokencode> or am i mixing it up with another flavour
[20:07] <jrib> hacked_kernel: check dmesg for anything interesting and see if it is listed when you do 'sudo fdisk -l'
[20:07] <hypa7ia> DRebellion: needed to add them back from the "filtered files" dialog :)
[20:07] <acee1234> if you dont have any ideas then who might i ask.
[20:07] <jrib> WaiXan: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[20:07] <macogw> deniz_: no. to share your internet connection, you need to bridge your connection
[20:07] <cokencode> also, another question, when i reload the live cd, will my settings be saved ? or will i have to install xchat again ?
[20:07] <macogw> deniz_: firestarter can let you configure iptables (the builtin firewall) to set up bridging
[20:07] <L3ttuc3> and why am i getting those error messages? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55411/   i had to unplug the device finally (dead device) because it was taking forever to sync something terribly small.
[20:07] <deniz_> so how can i make my wireless card in desktop comp act as a router?
[20:08] <macogw> cokencode: if you keep your home directory, your settings will be kept
[20:08] <macogw> cokencode: installed programs != settings though.
[20:08] <ubuntu> recon : thx anyway
[20:08] <macogw> deniz_: try firestarter
[20:08] <archangelpetro> is anyone aware of an alternative package to 'kile' that is intended for gnome?
[20:09] <recon> ubuntu: if you have it mounted, you could try to salvage your data and a list of installed packages.
[20:09] <deniz_> macogw, i did but it says sumtin (i assume my wireless card) is "not ready"
[20:09] <Comrade-Sergei> how can i make my intel wireless card work?
[20:09] <cokencode> macogw: hmmm, this isn't quite the solution I was looking for at all
[20:09] <cokencode> better than nothing tho
[20:10] <cokencode> where does stuff get installed when i install it tho ?
[20:10] <deniz_> macogw,  "the device wmaster0 is not ready" it says
[20:10] <cokencode> temporarily to free space on my hard drive, and then it's deleted ?
[20:10] <nick_> hey everyboddy
[20:10] <nick_> hows it going?
[20:10] <ffm> macogw: oh, sorry, I didn't recongize your nick.
[20:10] <macogw> deniz_: dont know what that means
[20:10] <iKap> OKAY my ubuntu crashed 5 times yesterday and twice already today.. just crashed again 1minute ago. what logs can i check to see waht the problem is!??!
[20:10] <macogw> ffm: heh it's maco!
[20:10] <astro76> cokencode: in memory (ramdisk)
[20:10] <ubuntu> recon : can u explain more ?
[20:11] <recon> ubuntu: for saving your list of packages, see http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=564
[20:11] <ffm> macogw: yes, but I know some other people of that name.
[20:11] <deniz_> macogw, o...thanks anyways
[20:11] <elementz> damn, anybody into festival tts?
[20:11] <deniz_> macogw, o actually wats iptables?
[20:11] <macogw> ffm: i just got "its good to see women using linux. it means its not just for geeks anymore but for the masses" in #ubuntu-offtopic.  you can testify that im a geek
[20:11] <Tiven> on what speed should i burn the iso of ubuntu i downloaded ?
[20:11] <Comrade-Sergei> How can i get my intel wireless card to work, as in drivers (preferably a gui install or a .deb installer)
[20:11] <cokencode> astro76: but I don't have enough ram to store all off this data, even if you include swap space
[20:11] <nickrud> Tiven: as slow as you can
[20:11] <ffm> macogw: yes, I can.
[20:11] <cokencode> i just install xchat AND nmap
[20:11] <iKap> what logs can i check to see why my ubuntu crashed?!? does anyone know.. this is second time its crashed today, im really thinking about switching back to ubuntu
[20:11] <Tiven> nickrud like... x4 ?
[20:11] <recon> ubuntu: and just back up your home folder (i assume you keep your data there) to another hard drive, a CD, the internet, etc.
[20:11] <nick_> my belkin card didnt need to be installed
[20:11] <iKap> i mean WINDOWS
[20:11] <nick_> it just worked
[20:12] <ffm> macogw: thats actualy amazingly sexist....
[20:12] <nick_> without the lights
[20:12] <Comrade-Sergei> iKap there are logs in /var...
[20:12] <nickrud> Tiven: that would probably do.  check  /msg ubotu md5   and  /msg ubotu  iso  to test your burn
[20:12] <Itaku> did anyone here make geebox?
[20:12] <macogw> deniz_: the kernel-level firewall. it can be configured through the command line or with a gui (like firestarter or guarddog). when you hear "hardware firewall" it usually means a router running linux using iptables
[20:12] <ffm> macogw: of whoever said that.
[20:12] <Tiven> thank you nickrud :)
[20:12] <recon> ubuntu: before you save your list of packages, use "chroot [wherever the root folder of your disk is mounted" to access the right binaries.
[20:12] <iKap> what logs am i suppose to check to look for errors?
[20:12] <bert_> hi, can someone tell me how to merge splitted rar archives on my linux system ?
[20:13] <deniz_> macogw, would wikipedia have a detailed explanation?
[20:13] <bazhang> iKap: they have a channel ##windows ;]
[20:13] <Itaku> how can i broadcast over a shoutcast server on ubuntu?
[20:13] <macogw> deniz_: probably
[20:13] <Itaku> winamp doesnt work
[20:13] <nickrud> iKap: check /var/log/syslog
[20:13] <deniz_> macogw, k, anyway i have to go so thx again
[20:13] <cokencode> hmmm, this is actually pretty cool, aside from hearing my cdrom drive spinning all the time
[20:13] <archangelpetro> i guess nobody here uses latex then
[20:14] <danand_> bert_ - you should just be able to use the unrar command and it will join all the bits for you - just run unrar e file.rar and see if that works
[20:14] <Comrade-Sergei> hey nickrud werent you the person who helpd me with my wifi last time?
[20:14] <cokencode> how secure is this live cd ?
[20:14] <nickrud> Comrade-Sergei: almost certainly not ;)
[20:14] <ubuntu> recon : thx man
[20:14] <iKap> Feb  9 14:09:39 home-laptop gdm[5178]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0
[20:14] <iKap> whats that mean
[20:14] <cokencode> i want something to monitor connections to my box on this
[20:14] <cokencode> does it come with anything preinstalled
[20:14] <Scunizi> Anyone know of mapping sofware for ubuntu like MS streets & trips?
[20:14] <Comrade-Sergei> nickrud, oops sorry
[20:14] <bert_> danand, if I open one of the pieces using file-roller, will it extract it the right or the wrong way ?
[20:14] <recon> ubuntu: let this be a lesson: next time, you might not be able to mount your drive. keep backups.
[20:14] <bazhang> !who | iKap

[20:14] <orionr-lapp1> Anyone know anything about getting an apple bluetooth keyboard working in ubuntu?
[20:14] <nickrud> Comrade-Sergei: when I'm sane, I run from wireless questions
[20:14] <macogw> archangelpetro: i do
[20:14] <cokencode> AHHHHHHHHHHHH, I was looking for NUBUNTU
[20:14] <cokencode> now it all makes sense
[20:14] <cherva> can someone explain to me what should i do to a *.c file when i have this "patch" ( http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55413/ ) should I remove the lines beginning with - and add the lines beginning with + ?
[20:15] <Comrade-Sergei> How do i get the drivers installed for my Intel wifi card, ndiswraper wont work
[20:15] <astro76> cokencode: if you intend to use a livecd as more than just a demo, you might look into something else like knoppiz
[20:15] <iKap> can someone tell me what Feb  9 14:09:39 home-laptop gdm[5178]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0  means.. im not tlakign to anyone in particular.
[20:15] <astro76> cokencode: *knoppix

[20:15] <Itaku> how can i broadcast over a shoutcast server on ubuntu? winamp doesnt work
[20:15] <Comrade-Sergei> nickrud, i thought gutsy would have support for a intel agn wifi nic!
[20:15] <Starnestommy> cherva: use the "patch" program
[20:15] <archangelpetro> macogw, do you use an 'ide' type thing for it? like Kile?
[20:15] <macogw> archangelpetro: no. i use vim
[20:15] <ffm> macogw: vim ftw!
[20:15] <archangelpetro> shite
[20:15] <Starnestommy> iKap: It means the desktop display crashed for some reason
[20:16] <macogw> archangelpetro: and the vim plugin for latex so i have proper syntax highlighting and can collapse sections
[20:16] <timothy2> i can't sync my sansa e250 mp3 player to add music to it, please help!
[20:16] <ffm> !language > archangelpetro
[20:16] <archangelpetro> sorry :D
[20:16] <ffm> archangelpetro: np.
[20:16] <Jowi> iKap, what does the gdm log say?
[20:16] <ffm> anyone have any idea why hardware manager crashes on load?
[20:16] <crdlb> archangelpetro: try winefish, iirc isn't not as poweful as kile, but it is gtk :)
[20:16] <cokencode> astro76: what does knoppix allow ? does it take a bit of the hard drive to store changes ?
[20:16] <cherva> Starnestommy: can u give me a tip how to do it i mean should i have this in a text file and then just start patch with this text file and the file that i want to patch ?
[20:16] <danand_> bert_ - with rar files you should have a "master" type file ie file.rar is the main file then file.0.rar file.1.rar etc are all parts of that same file. Just point file roller at the main file or use the unrar command
[20:16] <cokencode> does it use the debian package manager as well ?
[20:16] <macogw> archangelpetro: Scribus is a semi-WYSIWYG LaTeX...
[20:16] <archangelpetro> ok macogw  if i install 'texlive' packages will they be available by default if i install latex support for vim?
[20:17] <nickrud> Comrade-Sergei: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2514602&postcount=8 might help
[20:17] <macogw> archangelpetro: i think Gedit has a LaTeX mode too
[20:17] <Comrade-Sergei> How do i get the drivers installed for my Intel wifi card, ndiswraper wont work
[20:17] <Starnestommy> cherva: go to the directory where the 'dlls' directory is using cd
[20:17] <astro76> cokencode: no but it comes with almost everything you'd need as is supposed to easily allow you to retain settings
[20:17] <iKap> Jowi, Fatal server error:

[20:17] <cokencode> astro76: ok, thanks a heap. I think I'll just grap nubuntu
[20:17] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: you shouldnt need to install anything
[20:17] <timothy2> does anyone know how to sync a sansa e250 mp3 player with a media player in ubuntu? Or at least just copy music onto the device?
[20:17] <Algyz> Comrade-Sergei, try ubuntu ultimate ;)
[20:17] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: intel wifi is supported out of the box
[20:17] <cokencode> *grab
[20:17] <Starnestommy> iKap: looks like a segmentation fault
[20:17] <cokencode> in fact, why not download knoppix as well
[20:17] <Itaku> how can i broadcast over a shoutcast server on ubuntu? winamp doesnt work
[20:17] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: unless...hmm do you have the super new card?
[20:17] <Jowi> iKap, is this on a fresh install or have you installed 3rd party drivers?
[20:17] <Comrade-Sergei> Algyz, i had vista ultimate too
[20:17] <cokencode> worth a once ove
[20:17] <cokencode> r
[20:18] <nickrud> Comrade-Sergei: if it's a 4965 intel it has some interesting tidbits
[20:18] <cokencode> thanks for the help guys
[20:18] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, not really
[20:18] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: which'n?
[20:18] <Comrade-Sergei> nickrud, it serial is close
[20:18] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, n isnt that new

[20:18] <timothy2> does anyone know how to sync a sansa e250 mp3 player with a media player in ubuntu? Or at least just copy music onto the device?
[20:18] <WorldBFree> how can i boot the iso from my hd?

[20:19] <Jowi> iKap, not even for your video card (if you have ati/nvidia)=
[20:19] <chazco> Are there any tools for Ubuntu which allow you to remove a certain instrument from an MP3? I've seen similar for Windows, but not sure how they work...

[20:19] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, ive had n since last year
[20:19] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: ipw2200 should work with the linux drivers, though might be a little tricky.  ipw3945 should work instantly, no work involved (maybe enable the firmware in system -
[20:19] <iKap> Jowi, i have intel itegerated, its a dell laptop. i dont recall installing any video drivers.
[20:19] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: in system -> admin -> restricted driver manager
[20:19] <bert_> chazco, I don't think such software can exist, you could delete a frequentie but that wouldn't be just one instrument
[20:20] <timothy2> ALgyz, one moment, connecting it now
[20:20] <Itaku> how can i broadcast over a shoutcast server on ubuntu? winamp doesnt work
[20:20] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: yes i saw those last summer too, and they are based on whatever the current draft of n was at that time. if it changed, the final n may be different.  i havent heard of it being released any time in the last 6 months
[20:20] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, its not in the restricted drivers, theres only the nvidia card in there
[20:20] <chazco> bert_ - I had one for Windows a while ago that could remove voices (had to be the right quality MP3), so im guessing its doable with an instrument
[20:21] <danand_> bert_ - your back! - try that unrar command on the 1st rar file ie file.001
[20:21] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: lspci | grep Intel
[20:21] <timothy2> Algyz, it says it is connected "Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0781:7441 SanDisk Corp."
[20:21]  * ffm glares at the restricted drivers... ATI, I'm looking at you!
[20:21] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: what wireless card does it say?
[20:21] <iqbala> any  openoffice friendly public dictionary available to download?
[20:21] <Algyz> timothy2,  nice :)
[20:21] <iKap> Jowi, how can i change my resolution? and can that have to do anything with it?
[20:21] <Jowi> iKap, ok. did it start to happen all of a sudden, or after a program was installed, or plugin was added to the toolbar, or do you remember anything else that was modified when this started to happed? or has it always behaved like this?
[20:21] <bert_> chazco, voices are easier to remove then music for as far as I know, but I'm not sure if this kind of software exists, look in the audio category of synaptic
[20:21] <timothy2> Algyz, so now what? I can't put any music on it
[20:21] <macogw> iqbala: there should be a bunch for different languages on their website
[20:21] <[diablo]> good evening #ubuntu ... guys, I'm wanting to give someone Ubuntu, however they need Romanian language support.... does the DVD version contain language packs, or is it always a download update please?
[20:21] <Uhblivius> why would I not be able to place a check mark in the box for wine in Add/Remove applications?

[20:23] <Flare183> crusie: no problem
[20:23] <ffm> nickrud: sorry, couldn't resist.
[20:23] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, nothin
[20:23] <danand_> crusie - the live CD you installed from was probably made some time ago and consequently doesn't include all the latest updates and fixes for stuff
[20:23] <DRebellion> crusie, the cds aren't remastered every time a new update is released.
[20:23] <macogw> crusie: unlike certain companies, instead of making 10 updates into 1 so we can say "look we only had 5 exploits to patch last year" we admit how many things had to be patched.
[20:24] <winter_mute> Hey, how can I make the network manager remember the passkey to a wifi network?
[20:24] <zelrikriando> anyone has an idea of where the package emerald-themes comes from ??????
[20:24] <Uhblivius> winter_mute, I uninstalled that and edited /etc/network/interfaces and that has worked much better
[20:24] <iKap> Jowi, i have "plug n play" selected
[20:24] <timothy2> Algyz, did you receive my last message?
[20:24] <Jowi> iKap, first things first. run "xrandr" in a terminal. that would display your resolution

[20:24] <nickrud> zelrikriando: that package doesn't exist in gutsy, you would use the ccsm to download themes (or get them from art.gnome.org)
[20:24] <zelrikriando> oh that s why
[20:24] <[diablo]> I'll be kind and use the torrent
[20:25] <timothy2> Algyz, yes, I can't keep up with your messages, so I don't know what to do, lol
[20:25] <crusie> I just don't get why they don't have it in the iso - I mean I downloaded latest version (7.10) and 182 updates?

[20:25] <timothy2> Algyz, I found nothing that helped
[20:25] <Algyz> timothy2,  just don't worry :)
[20:25] <nickrud> zelrikriando: you upgraded from fiesty I'd bet
[20:25] <willytell_> Slart: now the webcam is working well with my capture program ;)
[20:25] <DRebellion> crusie, the livecds have to be thoroughly tested and stable. you can't just add updates every other day
[20:25] <crusie> usually I wouldn't mind but my ISP seems to have capped my internet connection to 10% of what I have..
[20:25] <Slart> willytell_: that's nice.. did I do that?
[20:25] <timothy2> Algyz, don't worry? that's a funny statement...i've been waiting 2 months to get this thing working

[20:26] <Uhblivius> If I can see the wine package in add/remove applications, but I cannot mark it for installation, does that mean that I need to edit my sources?
[20:26] <daedra> i want to start my wireless from tty, but instead it starts with Gnome
[20:26] <nickrud> Adamrooski: system->admin->software sources, enable the first four, disable the cdrom on the first tab, and on the updates tab enable security and updates
[20:26] <daedra> how?
[20:26] <crusie> well actually it's called cybercity :d
[20:26] <s0u][ight> hello i got a hd wich is fully used by windows vista (80Gb) ntfs filesystem and i want to install ubuntu on it without deleting vista how can i do it?

[20:27] <DRebellion> Uhblivius, what happens when you try to add it?

[20:29] <daedra> DRebellion: its WPAPSK
[20:29] <Jowi> iKap, ok. the intel driver. fine as well. when you installed Ubuntu, did you re-use an already available /home partition?
[20:29] <sanozuke> can
[20:29] <sanozuke> i
[20:29] <Flare183> !fsck | Wibble-
[20:29] <Comrade-Sergei> nickrud, ndiswrapper says its an invalid driver
[20:29] <ubotu> Wibble-: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[20:29] <macogw> Wibble-: ok thats useless. just look up autofsck on the wiki
[20:29] <willytell_> Slart: before apply nice and stop running services the webcam just top for a short time to capture.

[20:30] <willytell_> Slart: now... I have other little problem...
[20:30] <willytell_> :(
[20:30] <iKap> Jowi, no i didnt i did a clean re-install by first deleting all partions then creating a new one
[20:30] <Slart> willytell_: ok, I seem to be on a roll.. so go ahead
[20:30] <Jowi> iKap, ...and which ubuntu version are you using?
[20:30] <iKap> Jowi, my xorg log is full of this.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55416/
[20:30] <s0u][ight> tnx i'll take a look
[20:30] <Adamrooski> thankyou nickrud :)
[20:30] <iKap> Jowi, 7.10
[20:30] <nickrud> Comrade-Sergei: you may need a later version of ndiswrapper; ubuntu has 1.43
[20:30] <danand_> daedra - you need to use the iw commands ie iwconfig iwlist etc - for my ralink card there is a config file in /etc/Wireless/RT61 i think - hope that helps
[20:30] <Comrade-Sergei> i got it nvm nickrud
[20:31] <prey_alone> what's a good socks server?
[20:31] <sanozuke> update from 5.10 ubuntu to xubuntu, Xforce is a light OS; I have a pentium III
[20:31] <willytell_> anyone know how to start/stop services in command line?
[20:31] <Comrade-Sergei> nickrud, it was a little different than the tutorial THANKS!!!
[20:31] <daedra> danand_: it helps to know you've been through the same stuff
[20:31] <Flare183> willytell_: init.d
[20:31] <daedra> danand_: unfortunately, the command iwpriv set is unrecognised
[20:31] <Flare183> willytell_: sudo /etc/init.d/(program name) start/stop/restart

[20:37] <chind> "mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/media/sda1:/rofs=ro none /" mounts, but fails to save the data to /media/sda1. i am trying this on a livecd.
[20:37] <DRebellion> Scunizi, if you look up routeplanner with << apt-cache show routeplanner >> it has a field "Suggests: routeplanner-gnome". This should have displayed somewhere when you installed the package.
[20:37] <sanozuke> were is the software to record dvd and cd's on ubuntu 5.10
[20:38] <silent_> microphex: laptop?
[20:38] <Jowi> iKap, looks more or less normal... good: monitor and video card config looks ok. It is missing a "modules" section, but I'm not sure how important that is...
[20:38] <microphex> ya
[20:38] <willytell_> This was I wish... /etc/init.d/dbus start
[20:38] <Flare183> chind: yeah you got "readonly" enabled
[20:38] <jcg42> I dual boot Ubuntu and Windows XP. Sometimes I need to do something quickly in Windows, but I don't feel like rebooting. I was wondering if there was anyway to use the existing Windows XP installation in a virtual machine.
[20:38] <Scunizi> DRebellion, it didn't but thanks.. I'll reload the gnome version.

[20:38] <Algyz> jcg42,  qemu maybe
[20:38] <chind> Flare183 what do you mean by i have readonly enabled?
[20:38] <Flare183> willytell_: then on the termianl type in "sudo /etc/init.d/dbus start"
[20:38] <archangelpetro> has anyone here been able to get microphone working with ubuntu + audigy ZS?
[20:38] <willytell_> dbus service was down
[20:38] <willytell_> yes
[20:38] <Algyz> !qemu
[20:38] <silent_> microphex: have you tried looking on the ubuntu forums for your particular audio chip/laptop... there's usually someone who finds out options to put into alsaconf to make it work
[20:38] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[20:38] <willytell_> I did
[20:39] <willytell_> it
[20:39] <iKap> Jowi, one more thing.. yesterday this happened 3 times.. randomy in between doing things, ubuntu froze up for 3secs then right after i couldnt access any folders.
[20:39] <Flare183> chind: see the "ro"
[20:39] <Flare183> willytell_: i don't know what else to tell you
[20:39] <willytell_> Now I can view with a GUI running services
[20:39] <microphex> silent_, i guess ill try that
[20:39] <silent_> microphex: also make sure to have "Front" enabled for volume control
[20:39] <chind>  "mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/media/sda1=rw:/rofs=ro none /"  would that fix it? /rofs is read-only
[20:39] <Jowi> iKap, maybe you should run a memtest
[20:39] <willytell_> :D
[20:39] <chind> err Flare183 look above just posted
[20:40] <iKap> Jowi, someone told me what i encountered yesterday seemed to be a naitlus crash/kill
[20:40] <crusie> any way to check if my gfx card is correctly installed ?
[20:40] <silent_> crusie, what do you mean?
[20:40] <iKap> Jowi, getting kind of frustrating at this point, because i thought i had a stable system but apparantley i dont.
[20:40] <crusie> for 3d apps
[20:40] <silent_> crusie: try out compiz
[20:40] <crusie> aight
[20:40] <iKap> Jowi, what i have noticed is these crashes usually occur when im watching youtube vids and doing other stuff.
[20:40] <Eminence> hi.  i have an old machine (dapper) that i want to upgrade to gibbon.  however, none of the tools seem to work as dapper is so old.  suggestions?

[20:40] <Flare183> oops sorry about that
[20:40] <danand_> crusie - if you can run glxgears it should mean its working ok
[20:40] <cherva> when I type make where shoud the executable files be ? In the same folder right ?
[20:40] <willytell_> Flare183: could you tell me where the operating system see to start a service when it start up... if you know
[20:41] <microphex> !vmware
[20:41] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it.

[20:41] <Scunizi> Is there special syntax to get a python program running.. ?
[20:41] <DRebellion> cherva, somewhere in the directory
[20:41] <DRebellion> Scunizi, python program
[20:41] <cherva> DRebellion: thx
[20:41] <Flare183> willytell_: i think crontab but I'm not really sure keep asking throuh
[20:41] <Flare183> through*
[20:41] <Slart> Eminence: I think reinstalling is the better choice.. but depending on how much customization you've done to it it will take some time
[20:42] <chind> Flare183 should it be "mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/media/sda1=rw:/rofs=ro none /" or  "mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/media/sda1:/rofs=rw none /"  I don't think the second because rofs is a read-only medium and sda1 is the r/w medium. so unless i don't understand something...

[20:42] <Scunizi> DRebellion, It's routeplanner.. still can't get it running even after installing -gnome version.. no icon and I'm not sure what to use at the command line to start it.

[20:42] <DRebellion> Scunizi, so its not in the applications menu>
[20:42] <Scunizi> DRebellion, no.
[20:42] <Jowi> iKap, hard thing to troubleshoot. when you boot, you have the possibility to do a memtest. I think that is the first advice I can give. if the test come out ok, see if the crash only happen when flash is playing or nautilus is perfoming a specific action or something...
[20:42] <Eminence> Slart, ok, thanks.
[20:43] <DRebellion> Scunizi, open up a terminal and type,  locate routeplanner | xargs file | grep -i exec
[20:43] <Flare183> chind: don't know much about "mount" usage; but I don't know.  Gnome is a bit heavy for this.
[20:43] <Jowi> iKap, as far as I can see, your xorg.conf looks ok.
[20:43] <chind> Flare183 ok- thanks for the tip
[20:43] <DRebellion> Scunizi, actually, you'll have to update the database first with   sudo updatedb
[20:43] <Flare183> chind: no problem

[20:44] <Flare183> haha two at once
[20:44] <iKap> Jowi, okay thanks well ill try and pay more attension towards whats running when i get it again, thanks for your help.
[20:44] <Scunizi> DRebellion, already did that.. your line shows 3 executibles.
[20:44] <DRebellion> nickrud, noted.
[20:44] <willytell_> anyone know what file the operating system see to decide to start a service?
[20:44] <chind> Flare183 thats ok, i wasn't really expecting much help from this irc chan as it was. more for basic support questions i think...
[20:44] <nickrud> DRebellion: just quicker, less typing often ;)
[20:44] <DRebellion> Scunizi, and is routeplanner one of them?
[20:44] <danand_> daedra - do you have anything in /etc/Wireless ?
[20:45] <maximilion> Hm, how do I set the correct DPI for the screen, so document viewer will display at true size with zoom 100%?
[20:45] <jrib> willytell_: read 'man update-rc.d'
[20:45] <Flare183> chind: not really we have been known to actually go to the person's home (if it was close by) to actually help/fix their computer so... You get the idea
[20:45] <Scunizi> DRebellion, all three mention routeplanner then .postinst and .prerm and .postrm as the suffix on routeplanner.
[20:45] <willytell_> jrib, thank you ;)
[20:45] <Flare183> !away | ffm (should have done this earlier)
[20:45] <ubotu> ffm (should have done this earlier): You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair to new users.  (Please set your preferred nick in your client's settings instead.)  The same goes for using noisy away messages; use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently.

[20:45] <nickrud> maximilion: system->prefs->appearance, fonts tab->details button
[20:46]  * JustV good bye & thanks
[20:46] <s0u][ight> about shrinking c:\ i only can shrink 5 gigs while i got 40 gigs free space :|
[20:46] <ffm> Flare183: by doing that you are adding even more scrolling! Use ">"!. Plus, I have already had this said to me.
[20:46] <chind> Flare183 :) didn't mean that to be an insult. i don't doubt your altruism (if i got the right word)
[20:46] <danand_> willytell_ - in Gnome - System -> Admin -> Services#
[20:46] <maximilion> Hm, strange. It's set correctly.
[20:46] <mjw-> s0u][ight you might need to defragment in windows?
[20:47] <Lifeisfunny> Is it correct to say that someone can't change the icon Menubar in the gpanel any longer?
[20:47] <maximilion> Thanks nickrud, I'd have never guessed ;)
[20:47] <s0u][ight> i configured it to defragmentate each day do i still have to do it?
[20:47] <s0u][ight> manually
[20:47] <wpgeek> btw i need an explanation of the ubuntu runlevel's
[20:47] <ffm> !defrag s0u][ight
[20:47] <Flare183> ok... then people....oh yeah gotcha (had to look it up) [wow]
[20:47] <Scunizi> DRebellion, nickrud's line shows different results.. rplan and rpcli.  these are also located in /usr/bin instead of /var/lib/dpkg......etc.
[20:47] <chind> Flare183 more like #unionfs or another room would be a better place to ask the question
[20:47] <wpgeek> default desktop install of what has now turned into a server
[20:47] <maximilion> nickrud: Surely the screen dimensions don't enter into it? (I have a 27" widescreen)
[20:47] <Flare183> chind: perfect
[20:47] <ffm> !defrag | s0u][ight
[20:47] <ubotu> s0u][ight: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed.
[20:47] <wpgeek> i still want the GUI but i want to change to a runlevel
[20:47] <wpgeek> and disable gdm
[20:48] <ffm> s0u][ight: don't defrag, it is bad.
[20:48] <Flare183> s0u][ight: real bad real messy too
[20:48] <mjw-> s0u][ight : he's trying to install ubuntu, and if having partition-splitting issues with a windows partition
[20:48] <macogw> ffm: what?  defragging ntfs is good
[20:48] <ffm> macogw: oh, I didn't know he was talking about ntfs...
[20:48] <s0u][ight> srry
[20:48] <Flare183> s0u][ight: no problem
[20:48] <maximilion> Yeah, defragging is only as bad as the defragging program ;)
[20:49] <Pirate_Hunter> if i wanted to extract a .gz zip file what would be the command for it?
[20:49] <macogw> wpgeek: ubuntu uses debian runlevels.  0=halt, 6=reboot, 1=single user. 2-5=multiuser w/ X
[20:49] <ffm> Pirate_Hunter: tar -xzf
[20:49] <danand_> Pirate_Hunter - gunzip
[20:49] <Slart> Pirate_Hunter: gunzip filename.gz
[20:49] <crusie> s0u][ight:  run a chkdsk too :D might give you some more free space
[20:49] <ffm> dAndy: I think tar works too.
[20:49] <Pirate_Hunter> Slart: thanx thats much clear
[20:49] <Lifeisfunny> s0u][ight,  again, this is not a Microsoft product.  Thank you for shopping with us.  :)
[20:49] <Flare183> yeah tar and gunzip will both do it
[20:49] <macogw> Pirate_Hunter: if its .tar.gz, tar -xf thing.tar.gz
[20:49] <bluefox83> can anyone suggest a good site for buying a cheap motherboard that wont be a POS?
[20:49] <maximilion> You're staking all your data on the perfectness of the defrag program... TuneUp Utilities is one that I trust.
[20:49] <danand_> Pirate_Hunter - tar -xzf if it is a file.tar.gz file :)
[20:49] <crusie> s0u][ight:  you can do this from the recovery console when booting from the windows disc
[20:49] <macogw> ffm: z?

[20:50] <ffm> macogw: per man: "filter the archive through gzip"
[20:50] <ffm> macogw: other wise it just untars
[20:50] <archangelpetro> Ok, does anyone have issues with the Audigy and mic? whenever i try to mess about with mic, it 'never' works and then sound seems to fail all together
[20:50] <danand_> Pirate_Hunter - ok - just gunzip file.txt.gz then
[20:50] <macogw> ffm: oh well .tar.gz always works for me with just xf

[20:50] <crusie> Flare183: so you mean helping the dude with defraggin and chkdsk'ing his hdd so he can install ubuntu is offtopic?

[20:52] <microphex> ok
[20:53] <microphex> ill try it, or ill just use vmware under windows since i dualboot anyways
[20:53] <microphex> i was looking for a program that could virtually run my existing windows xp partition under ubuntu, is that possible?
[20:53] <AstorZZZ> mjw-, turns out you can run gparted from system->administration->partition editor without any problems (all menus are disabled when launched from terminal even after reboot)
[20:53] <mik__> hey
[20:53] <s0u][ight> should i reboot after a defragmentation?
[20:54] <mjw-> AstorZZZ well i'm glad that worked for you...weird that it's locked out from the terminal though.
[20:54] <AstorZZZ> mjw-, and partition editor found bad sectors on the drive :(
[20:54] <nickrud> maximilion: I'm sure the screen dimensions do come into play when it's calculated automatically
[20:54] <mjw-> AstorZZZ ouch
[20:54] <Lifeisfunny> I never get my question answered.  Why do I keep coming in here?   Maybe I'll ask in #off-topic and they can tell me their channel isn't for technicals.

[20:54] <nickrud> DRebellion: I'm switching to your executable search :)
[20:54] <macogw> s0u][ight: while defragging is good for tuning the system, every day is just too much.  you're going to wear out your hard drive.
[20:54] <Blue_Sassley> I have Wine version 0.9.54 installed how do I get the update to 0.9.55?
[20:55] <s0u][ight> ok i'll make it every week
[20:55] <ffm> I am fscking my SD card, and I get this: "A new long file name starts within an old one." I can "delete prior LFN" or should I leave as is?
[20:55] <zman> zman_ bye'
[20:55] <macogw> s0u][ight: think of a record player.  if you play the same record all the time, the grooves eventually get worn in.  hard drives are little itty bitty record playrs
[20:55] <ffm> zman_: talking to yerself?
[20:55] <egc> anybody have pointers on how to setup for development?
[20:55] <Faldrien> I'm getting "ata1.00: exception Emask" erros, so I ran fsck -c (i did umount and all of that), and as it checks the blocks alll of the errors are coming up, and its gotten through only 100k blocks  in ~2hrs.  Is this normal?
[20:55] <ffm> macogw: yes, but that takes a _lot_ of work.
[20:55] <Itaku> is there a mp3 to wav converer?
[20:55] <macogw> egc: install build-essential
[20:56] <egc> like what packages to install, etc
[20:56] <ffm> egc: what type of development
[20:56] <s0u][ight> ok my batery is allready screwedup

[21:01] <ffm> Itaku: restart nautilus, then, right click the file and click "convert"
[21:01] <usr_rob> i've deinstalled it, will reinstall it now
[21:01] <Itaku> how do i restart nautils?
[21:01] <Itaku> never used it :/
[21:01] <DoYouKnow> just make sure you run ldconfig in /usr/local/lib after you ./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install
[21:01] <Jowi> usr_rob, can you start other gui apps with gksudo ?
[21:01] <ffm> Itaku: you are using it now.
[21:02] <Itaku> well how do i restart it
[21:02] <ffm> Itaku: it is the file manager. log out and log back in.
[21:02] <quittt> how do I make my graphical boot no interrupted by ANYTHING??
[21:02] <Itaku> oh
[21:02] <ffm> quittt: you don't
[21:02] <ffm> quittt: we're working on it.
[21:02] <usr_rob> Jowi: wait a sec, i will install it again, brb
[21:02] <quittt> ffm, there is a irritant thing that stops it
[21:02] <ffm> quittt: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SlickBoot (yes, I know, you mean the fsck tool.)
[21:02] <quittt> saying that the backup of something is different from something
[21:02] <macogw> Itaku: killall nautilus && nohup nautilus &
[21:03] <Pantagruele>  ##english
[21:03] <ffm> macogw: that works too.
[21:03] <ffm> macogw: I'm suprised you don't know GPG.

[21:04] <macogw> ffm: anyway, the engineers' ball is in 2 weeks, so im going dress shopping. ttyl
[21:04] <quittt> ffm, how do I disable this fsck tool?
[21:04] <usr_rob> Jowi: $ gksudo firestarter No protocol specified (firestarter:5580): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[21:05] <Merlintosh> my startx is not starting it says cant initiate font
[21:05] <Jowi> usr_rob, does "xhost +local:root" help?
[21:05] <arnath> ok...something weird just happened, i was happily typing along in pidgin, and suddenly my screen goes black, and when it turns back on, i'm on the login screen

[21:06] <ffm> Itaku: Right click on the file, and go to scripts...
[21:06] <archangelpetro> wpgeek, how did you disable network manager?
[21:06] <ffm> !patience | Beavi5

[21:07] <Merlintosh> guys can anyone help me with an xorg issue ?
[21:07] <quittt> why NetworkManager shows a LOT of messages on boot?
[21:07] <nickrud> q_a_z_steve: as far as I know, thats supposed to work only for windows accounts. But don't quote me
[21:07] <quittt> how do I remove it?
[21:07] <usr_rob> Jowi: non-network local connections being added to access control list
[21:07] <wpgeek> ok i fixed it
[21:07] <quittt> I mean, the messages
[21:07] <ffm> quittt: you shouldn't
[21:07] <ffm> quittt: oh.
[21:07] <arnath> danand_: hmm, it's a bit long, anything i can grep for?
[21:07] <wpgeek> networkmanager screwing it up(don't use it if you aren't using it as a desktop, e.g. server)
[21:08] <ffm> quittt: uh, it is most likely due to an issue with your networkmanager...
[21:08] <ffm> quittt: desktop or laptop?
[21:08] <Itaku> ffm: how do i get the scripts button in
[21:08] <quittt> desktop
[21:08] <usr_rob> Jowi: Okey, now i get no error ;)
[21:08] <q_a_z_steve> nickrud: what do you mean? MS Windows to windows?
[21:08] <ffm> Itaku: wait...
[21:08] <danand_> arnath - cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
[21:08] <ffm> quittt: sudo aptitude remove networkmanager
[21:08] <ffm> quittt: and work without it.
[21:08] <s0u][ight> i freed up 5 gigs is it enough for ubuntu 7.10?
[21:08] <Merlintosh> noone can help me here.. ?  do u know of somewhere where i can get help concerning my problem ?
[21:08] <Jowi> usr_rob, ....and firestarter starts up?

[21:09] <nickrud> q_a_z_steve: some windows settings to ubuntu. Not sure, that's why you best not quote me
[21:09] <arnath> danand_: nothing really :s
[21:09] <quittt> ffm, actually, what is NetworkManager for?
[21:09] <arnath> danand_: is an X-crash in general something i should be worried about?
[21:09] <mysticfrost123> how to convert avi to wmv in ubuntu?
[21:09] <mjw-> s0u][ight it'll be tight, especially factoring in a partition for swap
[21:09] <q_a_z_steve> nickrud: well I have XP and vista on this box too... so it's just not seeing bleeding anything/
[21:09] <q_a_z_steve> ?
[21:10] <s0u][ight> how much swap partition should i use?
[21:10] <ffm> !package networkmanager | quittt
[21:10] <mjw-> s0u][ight ubuntu generally uses an amount equal to the amount of physical memory, i've noticed
[21:10] <ffm> !networkmanager
[21:10] <ubotu> networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager
[21:10] <usr_rob> Jowi: Yes it starts up, thx. Will try it at boot, with session manager gksudo /usr/sbin/firestarter , did try that yesterday but "nothing", it did not start, i have added nopass in sudoers
[21:10] <nickrud> q_a_z_steve: not sure then. I didn't have much trust in the concept myself. But don't ask me, I don't work here ;)
[21:10] <danand_> arnath - depends, does it keep crashing?
[21:10] <lanzelloth> hi, how do i downgrade firefox to <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:10] <arnath> danand_: nope, just the once
[21:10] <ffm> !networkmanager | quittt
[21:10] <ubotu> quittt: please see above
[21:10] <s0u][ight> ok i'll try to install ubuntu right now
[21:10] <arnath> danand_: (so far anyway)
[21:11] <astro76> s0u][ight: a small one ~256 MB would be enough if you are strapped
[21:11] <phuzion> gnome has crashed twice today, is there a log I can check to see whats going wrong?
[21:11] <quittt> wireless?
[21:11] <quittt> I don't use Wireless
[21:11] <arnath> danand_: from time to time compiz seems to crash though (only on this computer, which was upgraded from a beta version of gutsy, my other computer doesn't have that problem)
[21:11] <ffm> quittt: then remove it.
[21:11] <s0u][ight> btw is swap realy needed?
[21:11] <kdc1956> ubuntu 7.10 kicks butt
[21:11] <usr_rob> Jowi: do i have th use; xhost +local:root all the time, do not understand how this command work
[21:11] <s0u][ight> i got 1 gig ram
[21:11] <nigel> hi all. I have an issue with wine..I am a noob, and am trying to install an exe file (firefox within wine so I can use an online web server/editor that still is DOSE addicted and exclusive.
[21:11] <ffm> s0u][ight: it is a bad idea to go without.
[21:11] <danand_> arnath - shouldn't worry too much then - lets hope you don't keep crashing ;)
[21:11] <s0u][ight> i'm off cyaa
[21:11] <arnath> danand_: ok :)
[21:11] <Jowi> usr_rob, no, normally using xhost should not be necessary at all.
[21:12] <aarcane> Hi
[21:12] <Slart> nigel: DOSE?.. what is that?
[21:12] <aarcane> is it possible to make Ubuntu verify all the system files I've installed ?
[21:12] <quittt> ffm, which is the package that contains it?
[21:12] <ffm> quittt: networkmanger
[21:12] <nigel> oh sorry...my online web server host relieas on WINDose...sorry
[21:12] <arash`> are there any good .iso manipulation tools for ubuntu?
[21:12] <danand_> arnath - you could try looking in old logs if your worried ie Xorg.0.log.old
[21:12] <q_a_z_steve> aarcane: define verify?
[21:12] <ffm> quittt: networkmanager
[21:12] <arnath> danand_: ah :)
[21:12] <Beavi5> is there anyway to install ubuntu on a laptop without a cd drive? ive installed all the files from the distro to a partition and have made it bootable with syslinux, it starts up fine but i dont know how to start the kernel to install without a cd
[21:12] <QMario> In OpenOffice Calc 2.3.0, how would I add a number to every value column A and store the result in column B?
[21:13] <q_a_z_steve> !iso | arash`
[21:13] <ubotu> arash`: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[21:13] <aarcane> q_a_z_steve, check the md5 checksum of every file installed using synaptic or apt-get and ensure that they're the same as when installed.
[21:13] <Itaku> can i make mp3's playable on internet dj?
[21:13] <cokencode> ah yes, nubuntu installed
[21:13] <Slart> Beavi5: you can.. but the easiest way is to get an external cd drive, imho
[21:13] <cokencode> does anyone have anything to say about this distro ?
[21:13] <cokencode> is it secure ?
[21:13] <cokencode> any problems reported with it
[21:13] <cokencode> ?
[21:13] <puff> Anybody installed the ATI drivers manually (e.g. not-from-apt)?
[21:13] <quittt> ffm, there is network-manager
[21:13] <QMario> In OpenOffice Calc 2.3.0, how would I add a number to every value column A and store the result in column B?
[21:13] <ffm> quittt: close enough.
[21:13] <q_a_z_steve> aarcane: I can give you md5sum script, hold on
[21:13] <hetauma> is there any terminal that can change it's titlebar to what I'm doing? i.e. if I run vi test.c title should be something similar?
[21:13] <Beavi5> my laptop doesnt support booting from an external cd :(
[21:14] <BB-Corona> i installed ubuntu and when i restarted it showed the loading screen and would boot to a black screen, anyone know how to fix this?
[21:14] <Jowi> usr_rob, I use xhost to allow another account to launch firefox on my display from time to time. but I have no greate insight on how it works internally.
[21:14] <rinaldi_> Beavi5: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[21:14] <Slart> nigel: you have a webpage that is windows only but still works in firefox??.. wow.. didn't think that existed..
[21:14] <quittt> ffm, if I remove it, won't it affect anything?
[21:14] <aarcane> hetauma, you can write a launcher script to do that.  but in general, it's up to an application to set the terminal title itsself.
[21:14] <ffm> quittt: it shouldnt.
[21:14] <Slart> nigel: well.. have you tried just running the firefox installer in wine? wine setup.exe or whatever the firefox installer is named
[21:14] <Beavi5> thanks _rinaldi ill have a read :)
[21:15] <danand_> brb
[21:15] <nigel> no not a webpage. Start ashamed to admit it but it is web page generating software and host (homestead.com) and there interface only accepts windose systems running either IE or Firefox but on a winDOSE platform.
[21:15] <Itaku> can i make mp3's playable/streamable on internet dj?
[21:16] <astro76> hetauma: gnome-terminal does that by default
[21:16] <nigel> Anyway have wine installed, c drive generated and config pages come up but opening anything within wine does nada
[21:16] <aarcane> nigel, if you don't want to reboot into winnows, you can use qemu or vmware or other various software to run winnows in a virtual machine.
[21:16] <astro76> hetauma: but yeah it's up to the application outside the shell
[21:16] <usr_rob> Jowi: Thank you :) , will reboot now see if it starts up right
[21:17] <plzkthx> While using Ubuntu, Gnome just suddenly restarted automatically, now I don't have sound. :( Any help?
[21:17] <hetauma> astro76, it only changes title to the current directory
[21:17] <Slart> nigel: hmm.. what have you tried so far? does wine notepad work?
[21:17] <aarcane> nigel, or you can use ies4linux to install internet exploder.
[21:17] <nigel> gemu and vm ware...I'll check em out thanks...never want to dual again running 6 pc's only one dual boots due to some software reliances but that'll change
[21:17] <puff> http://php.pastebin.com/d5890fcfb
[21:17] <HorizonXP> hey, is there a way to install Hardy Heron's package for Evolution on Gutsy?
[21:17] <aarcane> nigel, as a last resort, you can get a real host instead of homestead.
[21:18] <plzkthx> Well, anyone?
[21:18] <ffm> HorizonXP: yes.
[21:18] <hdevalence> hey, if I have a C2D T5250 "Merom" cpu, what do I put on gcc -mtune=<arch> ?
[21:18] <Slart> HorizonXP: not in an easy way
[21:18] <ffm> !helpme | plzkthx
[21:18] <ubotu> plzkthx: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[21:18] <ffm> Slart: no, it s somewhat easy...
[21:18] <astro76> hetauma: vi should update the title, maybe you don't have vim-full installed
[21:18] <HorizonXP> lol, i can see it's not easy, cuz i've tried and it hasn't worked; i tried using prevu, but it errored out
[21:18] <zimon> hdevalence, nocona
[21:18] <aarcane> plzkthx, 1) get a real nick.  2) try rebooting.  if that doesn't fix it, ask again.
[21:18] <ffm> HorizonXP: download the deb from the mirror.
[21:19] <Slart> HorizonXP: it is? force-architecture works ok?
[21:19] <nigel> aarcane yes I know but it is a really good and extremely efficient server also..I can edit 100 pages in an hour adjusting all meta's and keywords...it is a very quick solution for me and I am hooked at present
[21:19] <puff> plzkthx: Reboot.  If it comes back after reboot, come back here and ask for advice about it.
[21:19] <plzkthx> Well, thats the whole point, I don't want to reboot, I'd like to keep a good uptime.
[21:19] <hdevalence> zimon: thanks!
[21:19] <astro76> hetauma: ubuntu has only vim-tiny by default
[21:19] <hetauma> astro76, correct I only had vim
[21:19] <Slart> ffm: bah, sorry about thtat..   it is? force-architecture works ok?
[21:19] <puff> plzkthx: It's most likely you're going to have to reboot to get sound back.
[21:19] <HorizonXP> Slart, ffm: but the deb has a TON of dependencies
[21:19] <ffm> Slart: yes, you just download and install the deb.
[21:19] <ffm> HorizonXP: then get them.
[21:19] <puff> plzkthx: I had problems with that before, related to having both esd and alsa installed.  In essence, there is a resource contention problem, sort of like a file lock.
[21:19] <plzkthx> puff, I never faced this problem before, any way to see if any process is using my driver?
[21:19] <nickrud> Slart: you wouldn't need force-architecture, get the right architecture for your machine (32vs64)
[21:20] <HorizonXP> ffm: here's hoping I don't break it :P
[21:20] <Slart> HorizonXP: check the force-options..
[21:20] <aarcane> nigel, if you need to adjust metas and keywords, you could code a header in php, which queries your meta and keywords from a database and changes them *snaps fingers* that fast.
[21:20] <ffm> HorizonXP: enable the newer hardy repo, apt-get it, unenable.
[21:20] <Slart> nickrud: yes.. I know.. old wine-habit =)
[21:20] <puff> plzkthx: No, not really.  I mean, "ps -ef | fgrep -i esd" will tell you if esd is running.
[21:20] <ffm> HorizonXP: and now you have a half-hardy system.
[21:20] <astro76> hetauma: install it, then sudo update-alternatives --config editor
[21:20] <emory> I'm trying to run update on a fresh mythbuntu install and it keep locking up after it fails to start mysql...
[21:20] <ffm> plzkthx: reboot.
[21:20] <emory> any ideas?
[21:20] <puff> plzkthx: Actually, if gnome crashed, and then you restarted gnome without rebooting, then probably you're stuck.
[21:20] <prey_alone> what's the easiest tool to socksify a server?
[21:20] <ffm> !helpme | emory
[21:20] <ubotu> emory: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[21:20] <nickrud> HorizonXP: don't listen to ffm he's recommending crack(ing your system :)
[21:20] <puff> plzkthx: The old gnome process had the lock, the new process cant' get it, you have to reboot.
[21:21] <ffm> nickrud: how so?
[21:21] <plzkthx> puff, I din't start it manually,. it started automatically.
[21:21] <astro76> hetauma: in order to make it used for visudo and sudoedit
[21:21] <puff> plzkthx: That's just a guess, though.
[21:21] <ffm> nickrud: I'd do it...
[21:21] <HorizonXP> nickrud: ?
[21:21] <nigel> aarcane...sounds wonderful and simple but as a fine art/ graphic designer nurse and baby shop owner I am stuck with this for now..and yes I know that'll put me in the realm of a tewchno slug right now.
[21:21] <puff> plzkthx: Either way, you have to reboot.    I know it sucks.
[21:21] <rinaldi_> emory: have you tried asking in #ubuntu-mythtv   ?
[21:21] <puff> plzkthx: And come back with a better nic :-)
[21:21] <plzkthx> Heh, its sure sux. :<
[21:21] <hetauma> astro76, ok thanx alot
[21:21] <emory> I could these seems more like a synaptic/mysql issue though
[21:21] <ffm> HorizonXP: listen to nickrud, he most likely knows more than me.
[21:21] <nickrud> ffm: you'd need more than just the evolution deb, there's evolution-data-server , and more HorizonXP
[21:21] <plzkthx> Well, thanx anyway.
[21:21] <puff> plzkthx: It's a limitation of the architecture, not ubuntu's fault.
[21:21] <HorizonXP> ffm, nickrud: yeah, you're right, there's a ton
[21:22] <Slart> plzkthx: you can probably find a way to edit your uptime to keep your e-peni... sorry.. uptime up ;)
[21:22] <ffm> nickrud: he _could_ use hardy...
[21:22] <aarcane> nigel, if you'd like to at some point get a host that supports PHP, you can send me a whisper on this network at this nick, and I can possibly help you out with a script.
[21:22] <ffm> HorizonXP: why do you need the new version anyway/
[21:22] <cokencode> why does nubuntu leave port 22 (ssh) open by default ?
[21:22] <HorizonXP> ffm, nickrud: i was hoping to just compile from source
[21:22] <aarcane> nigel, I've seldom got much better to do.
[21:22] <cokencode> this looks very suspicious
[21:22] <FranzJesus> nigel: Have you tried the firefox extension User Agent Switcher
[21:22] <HorizonXP> ffm, nickrud: Google Calendar support
[21:22] <astro76> cokencode: it's only open if you install the ssh server
[21:22] <nigel> thanks aarcane..will do.
[21:22] <plzkthx> Slart, was that supposed to be funny?
[21:22] <Slart> cokencode: the firewall isn't enabled by default.. but I doubt ssh is up and running on a new install
[21:22] <nigel> franzJesus...tell me more will look it up now
[21:23] <ffm> plzkthx: yes, and it was.
[21:23] <Slart> plzkthx: you're the one worrying about your uptime..
[21:23] <cokencode> Slart, I'm using a live cd ... nubuntu
[21:23] <Slart> cokencode: nubuntu?
[21:23] <Jowi> plzkthx, ctrl-alt-backspace will kill X and all child processes (like the sound server most of the time). you can try that.
[21:23] <plzkthx> Slart, orly?
[21:23] <FranzJesus> try downloading the extension at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59
[21:23] <astro76> cokencode: then they've installed and enabled the ssh server, in order to enable ssh, note this is not an official project
[21:23] <nigel> thanks franz doing that now
[21:23] <puff> Anybody got a guess at this:  http://php.pastebin.com/d5890fcfb
[21:24] <HorizonXP> nickrud: any way i do this?
[21:24] <plzkthx> Jowi, thax m8. :)
[21:24] <cokencode> astro76, I know I know, but my question is ... why  ?
[21:24] <astro76> cokencode: ask them
[21:24] <secleinteer> hi, i'm trying to fill out a pdf form in acrobat, but i'm getting "plug-in required by this 'javascript' action is not available", and when i try to print anything, the text input fields' contents are mangled
[21:24] <secleinteer> any ideas?
[21:24] <astro76> cokencode: being able to ssh to a machine is very useful
[21:24] <crusie> hey - got a creative xfi card - where do I get the drivers for ubuntu for it ?
[21:24] <cokencode> cokencode, you hardly go to the source when you suspect someone of being up to something fishy
[21:24] <cokencode> do you ?
[21:24] <HorizonXP> nickrud:, ffm, Slart: ok, here's a question: how unstable is Hardy Heron?
[21:25] <cokencode> astro76, oh, i'm well aware of this
[21:25] <ffm> HorizonXP: very
[21:25] <astro76> cokencode: note also that this doesn't appear to be a normal use desktop livecd, but a security testing system
[21:25] <ffm> HorizonXP: I'd wait for the beta.
[21:25] <Slart> cokencode: I usually install ssh myself on my machines.. but having it on by default seems.. a bit dangerous..
[21:25] <ffm> HorizonXP: but getting more all the time.
[21:25] <cokencode> astro76, precisely, why would you need to ssh into a security testing system
[21:25] <kestir> Hi, when I use aplay to play mp3s all I hear is a bunch of loud static, am I missing something?
[21:25] <Slart> HorizonXP: I think they say it's alpha quality atm.. so not for production machines
[21:25] <cokencode> Slart, my point exactly!
[21:25] <Slart> !hardy
[21:25] <astro76> cokencode: you might not even have a monitor
[21:25] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[21:25] <astro76> cokencode: or a keyboard
[21:25] <HorizonXP> nickrud:, ffm, Slart: aiight, so am I SOL for getting the new Evolution on my machine?
[21:26] <nickrud> HorizonXP: you could do apt-get source evolution , apt-get build-dep evolution , and dpkg-buildpackage
[21:26] <Slart> cokencode: but I think this is something you should ask on their forums.. it's not installed on ubuntu
[21:26] <cokencode> astro76, i dunno, it still doesn't sit well with me
[21:26] <Zombino> Printer issue:  Trying to use foomatic-ppdfile to generate a PPD file for my label printer, but it's giving me an error saying that the printer file isn't in the database.  I've read a lot of threads on installing this printer and nobody seems to be having this issue.  Just reinstalled the foomatic database and it didn't fix anything :(
[21:26] <Slart> HorizonXP: what's so great about the new evolution?
[21:26] <FranzJesus> nigel: then change agent under Tools->User Agent Switcher->whatever you want
[21:26] <astro76> cokencode: don't use it then
[21:26] <Slart> HorizonXP: hardy is due in what.. april? 2 months or so?
[21:26] <HorizonXP> Slart: native Google Calendar support
[21:26] <nickrud> HorizonXP: forget dpkg-buildpackage, brain fart. a sec
[21:26] <Slart> HorizonXP: ah.. that does sound nice
[21:26] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone help me with tor & privoxy on a separate window?
[21:26] <cokencode>  Slart, well, I expect to get a more straightforward and honest answer in here. Just like everyone was here bashing the easyubuntu alternative because how often it breaks systems
[21:26] <ffm> HorizonXP: or just "sudo apt-get source evolution; sudo apt-get build-dep evolution; sudo dpkg-buildpackage"
[21:27] <Itaku> ffm: how do i get the scripts button in
[21:27] <ffm> Itaku: can you look it up?
[21:27] <astro76> cokencode: like I said it has nothing to do with ubuntu, also you're not understanding what it's intended for
[21:27] <ffm> Itaku: http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=681762
[21:27] <Jack_Sparrow> cokencode: Actually easybuntu isnt as bad as it used to be.. unlike envy or automatix
[21:27] <cokencode> astro76, that's not the way to learn about security now is it? Avoid everything you're afraid of? I prefer to turn this into a learning experience. Rather than just go "oh, it's insecure I won't use it". That doesn't benefit me at all.
[21:27] <ffm> Jack_Sparrow: ack!
[21:27] <HorizonXP> nickrud:, ffm, Slart, this is the error I get when i do apt-get build-dep evolution: Build-Depends dependency for evolution cannot be satisfied because no available versions of package evolution-data-server-dev can satisfy the version requirements
[21:27] <ffm> Jack_Sparrow: nooo!
[21:28] <Jack_Sparrow> !easybuntu
[21:28] <nigel> franzjesus...great that works
[21:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about easybuntu - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:28] <cokencode> Jack_Sparrow, read what I said again. I said everyone bashed the ALTERNATIVE to easyubuntu, i.e. automatix
[21:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Evil
[21:28] <FranzJesus> nigel: Glad i could help
[21:28] <maximilion> OK, I now have sound in quake 3 :)
[21:28] <joanki> when i insert a cd into my disk drive, double-click on the icon on the desktop, i get : "Couldn't display "cdda:///dev/scd0. There was an error launching the application." Can anyone help m e fix this?  i want to listen to my cd.
[21:28] <puff> "Error! Your kernel source for kernel 2.6.22-14-386 cannot be found at /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-386/build or /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-386/source."
[21:28] <astro76> cokencode: you are not making any sense, if you want to security test a server with no display using this cd, you need to ssh into it
[21:28] <maximilion> But as soon as the map starts, it freezes. Any thoughts?
[21:28] <nickrud> HorizonXP: one of the reasons you might just want to wait. I'm waiting for it since I hate the popup imap error messages. They'll be in the task bar :)
[21:28] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone help me with tor & privoxy on a separate channel?
[21:29] <ffm> Jack_Sparrow: on second thought, it looks kk.
[21:29] <ffm> Pirate_Hunter: why not here?
[21:29] <maximilion> Also, how do I add terminal commands to be executed at startup of x?
[21:29] <ffm> maximilion: add them to .xsession
[21:29] <Pirate_Hunter> ffm: its not ubuntu related but someothign weird going on with tor and privoxy
[21:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Most of irc blocks tor severs...
[21:29] <Slart> cokencode: well.. having it installed and enabled by default is bad, if you ask me. I don't know if nubuntu claims to be a good desktop install, it might be a special distro used only in special cases where an open ssh server isn't a bad thing
[21:29] <HorizonXP> nickrud: i'm gonna try to do this, because in April i'm done school, so kinda useless to me then
[21:29] <maximilion> ffm: in my user home directory?
[21:29] <cokencode> astro76, wait, what? you're penetration testing a server, using a live cd installed on the computer used for testing. Why does the computer used for testing need to have port 22 open? YOU'RE not making sense
[21:30] <HorizonXP> nickrud: here's hoping i don't break my system
[21:30] <crusie> hmm no ideas on how to get sound on here? seems like my card isn't even detected by ubuntu - it's a creativ xfi
[21:30] <cokencode> astro76, I need to ssh OUT, I don't need to have sshd running
[21:30] <ffm> maximilion: yes
[21:30] <astro76> joanki: check what's set it in preferences > preferred applications ?
[21:30] <maximilion> Thanks, will try :)
[21:30] <astro76> !ot | cokencode
[21:30] <ubotu> cokencode: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[21:30] <Slart> maximilion: I don't know how to make stuff start when x starts.. but you can make things start when you log in by using the System, Prefences, Sessions applet
[21:30] <ffm> cokencode: we arn't talking about _you_ we are talking about _whats useful_
[21:30] <Pirate_Hunter> ffm: so cna you help me
[21:30] <ffm> Pirate_Hunter: yes...
[21:30] <cokencode> lol, oh come on astro76, you're only saying that now because you're losing the argument.
[21:31] <ffm> cokencode: actualy, he's not.
[21:31] <kestir> Hi, when I use aplay to play mp3s all I hear is a bunch of loud static, am I missing something?
[21:31] <nigel> franzjesus-at risk of being greedy (but let me tell you what is at stake) I will be able to exclusively use Ubuntu on all pc's and any dual booting if i was to want to run the editing software in wine how do I.
[21:31] <cokencode> ffm, explain to me then. Why does a box that is sshing into a server, need to have sshd running ?
[21:31] <ffm> cokencode: because the box you are running on may be headless.
[21:31] <Slart> kestir: have you looked at the links ubotu gives you when you type !mp3 ?
[21:31] <crusie> !mp3
[21:31] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[21:31] <cokencode> you're doing penetration testing with a headless box?
[21:32] <ffm> cokencode: maybe.
[21:32] <nickrud> HorizonXP: luck to you
[21:32] <cokencode> why? doesn't make sense
[21:32] <uman> hi there. Im having trouble with xchat. For some reason when i open it it occupies the entire screen and i cant resize the window. I cant even see the close, minimize, maximize buttons on the top right corner. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks and sorry for the noobie question.
[21:32] <ffm> cokencode: in any case, this is off topic. lets move this to #ubuntu-offtopci
[21:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Please keep to the topic.. (for those wandering a bit offtopic)
[21:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Thanks
[21:32] <puff> So, the ATI installation page here ( http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide ) doesn't say it, but from the error message and the release notes, I think I need to have the kernel sources, or kernel headers at least.
[21:32] <cokencode> and at any rate , he made mention of the SERVER being headless, NOT the box doing the penetration testing
[21:32] <puff> Does this make sense?
[21:33] <Slart> uman: are you sure there are buttons up there? they might be missing?
[21:33] <Jowi> kestir, aplay does not play anything but wav files for me
[21:33] <Slart> uman: are you using regular ubuntu gutsy?
[21:33] <Pirate_Hunter> ffm: are you registered? cause if yuor not you we can't talk in private window otherwise go to #onion_tor
[21:33] <kestir> Jowi: hmm, can you recommend a command line mp3 player?
[21:33] <uman> slart: No, those buttons are not there. Im using ubuntu 7.10
[21:34] <ffm> Pirate_Hunter: yes, I am registered.
[21:34] <nemilar> kestir: mpg321
[21:34] <Slart> uman: try running "compiz --replace" in a terminal
[21:34] <Jowi> kestir, yes, mp3blaster is nice
[21:34] <maximilion> OK ffm: created it. Is there some way I can make a command script that can be typed in the alt+f2 (Run Application) panel?
[21:34] <nigel> Franzjesus-Didnt work after all..lets me log in but is unable to open pages due to no cache.
[21:34] <ffm> Pirate_Hunter: And yes, I hav replied.
[21:34] <zardosht> Hi, how can I find a pdf file that part of its name is "matrix", I used find command but I dont know how to use it, thank you.
[21:34] <ffm> maximilion: yes.
[21:34] <Jowi> kestir, that gives you a full text mode "gui" though. with abilities for playlists. may be overkill for what you want. :)
[21:35] <ffm> maximilion: add a script to /usr/local/bin
[21:35] <maximilion> ffm: Just make a file with vim and chmod +x?
[21:35] <usr_rob> firestarter do not start at boot
[21:35] <danand_> puff - yes - sudo apt-get -s install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[21:35] <Slart> zardosht: do you have any kind of clue to where it is?
[21:35] <kestir> Jowi: yeah, but it's nice and geeky...I like it
[21:35] <ffm> maximilion: that's ti.
[21:35] <Slart> zardosht: like.. it's in my home folder? or on this drive?
[21:36] <maximilion> cool :)
[21:36] <zardosht> slart: may be at /media but not sure
[21:36] <drrohin> Can anyone help me get VirtualBox to reconize my dvd drive
[21:36] <sGnue> ppl plz guide me howw to install java on linux 5.04
[21:36] <uman> slart: thanks. I suppose it kind of worked. I still dont have the buttons on top and cant move xchat, its as if it werent in window mode. but I can atleast see the menu bar on top and bottom
[21:36] <usr_rob> i have "gksudo /usr/sbin/firestarter" in 'sessions' and added %myusername ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/firestarter in sudoers, nothing, it do not start
[21:36] <Slart> zardosht: /media is where all your hard drives are.. searching it all might take a loooong time
[21:36] <puff> danand_: Should I take out the "-s" ? :-)
[21:36] <tkxue> I edit a document in abiword. It looks fine. I print it to a pdf ... and the resized images in the document suddenly look very very blurry. How do I fix this?
[21:36] <sGnue> dgfh
[21:36] <sGnue> '
[21:36] <sGnue> \\\
[21:37] <Jowi> kestir, alternatively I like alsaplayer. seems to play everything except pls/mms streams. alsaplayer's got both gtk and text mode, with playlist support but no "gui" like mp3blaster.
[21:37] <Slart> uman: try disabling "visual effects".. see if that makes it better
[21:37] <LjL> sGnue: upgrade to a newer version, 5.04 is long unsupported
[21:37] <zardosht> slart: no matter, just want to find it
[21:37] <danand_> puff - sorry - yes - that -s is for simulate only
[21:37] <uman> slart: uh oh, I just realized that by typing what you told me before (replace something) now all of my applications are missing the buttons/border
[21:37] <floorpie> zardosht: try find /media -iname *matrix*
[21:38] <zardosht> thanx
[21:38] <maximilion> ffm: Won't let me save. Can I use some other folder that is in $PATH?
[21:38] <Slart> zardosht: ok.. "find /media .*matrix.*\.pdf" run that in a terminal
[21:38] <ffm> maximilion: you have to do so as root, or modify your own path
[21:39] <zardosht> thanx
[21:41] <uuuman> slart: got disconnected. I just realized that now all of my applications are missing the buttons/menu on top, so i cant move any the programs I open its like they lose the window border..
[21:42] <Slart> uuuman: hmm.. have you tried disabling compiz? (system, preferences, appearance, set visual effects to none)
[21:42] <uuuman> slart: Thanks a million that did the trick!
[21:43] <Slart> uuuman: well.. it's just a dirty solution.. without compis there is no cube.. no burning windows etc.. but if you're fine with that.. then you're good
[21:43] <andreus__> hello. i'm on gutsy ubuntu. my gnome loads only with desktop. no taskbar, alt+(f1,f2) doesn't work. is there a way to reset it to normal?.. has already got rid of .gnome dir
[21:44] <puff> danand_: That appears to have worked, yay.
[21:44] <g06|in> what should I do to get the manual pages for functions like pagesize() malloc()
[21:45] <erUSUL> g06|in: manpages-dev
[21:45] <siofwolves> uuuman, Slart. i too had messed up windows when installing compiz in 7.10. my gfx were stuck at 640 x 480. no other gfx options there.
[21:45] <g06|in> erUSUL: thx
[21:46] <erUSUL> g06|in: no problem

[21:46] <ex0dus> hi there
[21:46] <Slart> siofwolves: installed compiz? compiz-fusion is already there in 7.10
[21:46] <ex0dus> i need some help
[21:47] <siofwolves> i'm using kubuntu, wrong chan i guess
[21:47] <Slart> just describe your problem, ex0dus
[21:47] <nigel> any help in running wine for a noob. Its downloaded. Config opens but it wont open any exe..the option comes up in drop down but does nada. Thanks
[21:47] <ex0dus> yes sure
[21:47] <Coppershade-org^> OK, maximilion here ffm
[21:47] <ex0dus> 1min
[21:48] <ex0dus> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/firefox-gnome-support_<IP_ADDRESS>+2nobinonly+2-0ubuntu0.7.10_i386.deb: files list file for package `gimp-help-common' is missing final newline
[21:48] <Coppershade-org^> I think I should never have made that .xsession file. I get a warning with extremely small font saying session lasted less than 10 seconds.
[21:48] <ex0dus> this is the line that i got days now
[21:48] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: then its easy to fix.
[21:48] <Coppershade-org^> I rebooted in recovery mode, looking to delete the .xsession file, but it's not there.
[21:48] <erUSUL> Coppershade-org^: yiu can boot on recovery mode and remove the file
[21:48] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: thats cause in recomode you are root.
[21:48] <erUSUL> Coppershade-org^: :(
[21:48] <Coppershade-org^> I can't get into my Ubuntu. What do I do?
[21:48] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: su - username
[21:48] <Coppershade-org^> ah
[21:48] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: and remove it.
[21:49] <Coppershade-org^> Why the - sign?
[21:49] <nickrud> ex0dus: put the contents of /var/lib/dpkg/firefox-gnome-support.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[21:49] <Nutubuntu> My gutsy install boots into (or stops at) the initramfs prompt every now and then. When it does, I restart, but I'm guessing there's a simpler way to get through the full boot process, and a way to fix the underlying issue too. I just have no idea what. Anyone know?
[21:49] <joanki> astro76 , i did that, but what can i change there?
[21:50] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: changes your directory and acts like a login shell.
[21:50] <astro76> joanki: the default media player, not sure if it will help or it's the problem
[21:50] <Coppershade-org^> Well, that worked ffm (it seems)
[21:50] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: good.
[21:50] <nickrud> ex0dus: doh. bad file path, it's /var/lib/dpkg/info/firefox-gnome-support.list
[21:50] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: do you want it to happen ONLY when X starts, or whenever the computer boots?
[21:51] <Coppershade-org^> When X starts, as if I had immediately started Terminal and typed the commands.
[21:51] <ex0dus> nickrud can we talk in pm ?
[21:51] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: why then?
[21:51] <ffm> Coppershade-org^: you mean when GNOME starts...
