[18:20] <XStylus> So is it bad when "cfdisk" gives me "FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive"?
[18:20] <debCarlos> XStylus: Slart is right :)
[18:20] <seagullman> chriswr, if you just want to load another os on your harddrive i could help ya
[18:20] <soundray> noriyuki: perhaps try reinstalling alsa-base and alsa-utils as well, in case you've overwritten anything that was in those packages
[18:20] <seagullman> chriswr, couldn't tell you which os to choose tho
[18:20] <chriswr> seagullman: i guess i could try windows with it
[18:20] <chriswr> since i allready have it installed
[18:20] <soundray> noriyuki: beyond that, I won't be able to help you. Do ask the channel again, but consider that you may have to backup and reinstall.
[18:20] <debCarlos> XStyus: You need to call it giving the drive you want to edit, something like   $  cfisk /dev/roudrive
[18:20] <noriyuki> soundray: I already tried that several times in the past. no changes
[18:21] <noriyuki> yea I think I will reformat
[18:21] <seagullman> chriswr, what are you running now?
[18:21] <seagullman> chriswr, ubuntu i guess
[18:21] <noriyuki> soundray: I cant find any solution so I think I will reformat
[18:21] <chriswr> seagullman: yep
[18:21] <seagullman> chriswr, so you only have ubuntu on and you want to add something else?
[18:21] <soundray> noriyuki: backup your /home of course, and perhaps /etc so you can refer to it. Maybe also /var/cache/apt/archives so you won't have to re-download everything.
[18:22] <seagullman> chriswr, do you know about partitioning?
[18:22] <chriswr> seagullman: i got windows xp installed also
[18:22] <chriswr> seagullman: dont even know what that means
[18:22] <chriswr> lol
[18:22] <seagullman> chriswr, oh k
[18:22] <cool> any good 3d rpg or mmo games?????
[18:22] <chriswr> cool: guild wars
[18:22] <DIFH-iceroot> wow?
[18:22] <seagullman> chriswr, so when you load up your comp you get to choose between ubuntu and windows?
[18:22] <Slart> cool: not really.. no native ones at least
[18:22] <XStylus> debCarlos: "cfdisk /dev/i2o/hda" - Same error
[18:22] <chriswr> seagullman: yep
[18:22] <soundray> !games > cool
[18:23] <cool> for linux
[18:23] <Slart> cool: you can run some of the windows stuff using wine.. ask in #winehq for more info
[18:23] <seagullman> chriswr, and you have actually installed ubuntu, its not just running off the cd?
[18:23] <chriswr> cool: guild wars was platinum rated with wine
[18:23] <noriyuki> anyways
[18:23] <DIFH-iceroot> wow is running perfect with wine 1.1
[18:23] <askand> find . -name '[rp]*' -exec tar cvf tarfile.tar {} \;     Will that command take all the files in my homfolder that starts with r or p and put them in a tarfile?
[18:23] <debCarlos> XStylus: sure you have it on /dev/i2o  ?
[18:23] <LaNCeloT_AWAY> godzirra, got it mate?
[18:23] <noriyuki> Does some one nows How to get all the Original DRIVERS as it was when I installed UBUNTU by first time
[18:23] <LaNCeloT_AWAY> godzirra, working ok?
[18:23] <chriswr> seagullman: nope , its installed on my c: drive
[18:23] <noriyuki> HOW TO GET back to the original drivers?
[18:24] <XStylus> debCarlos: Not 100%. How do I find out what it's on?
[18:24] <seagullman> chriswr, so you installed it in windows?
[18:24] <chriswr> yes
[18:24] <Slart> askand: [rp]* just means either r och p.. you might want [rp].*  . is any character
[18:24] <debCarlos> XStylus: You can do an $ fdisk -l  to see your partitions :)
[18:24] <Slart> askand: hmm.. [rp]* will just match rrprprpr, rprpppp, ppp, rrrr and such..
[18:25] <fyrfry> I turned on my cpu a couple days ago and the resolution was 640x480 and I can't change it.
[18:25] <noriyuki> Does some one nows How to get all the Original DRIVERS as it was when I installed UBUNTU by first time
[18:25] <noriyuki> Does some one nows How to get all the Original DRIVERS as it was when I installed UBUNTU by first time
[18:25] <noriyuki> HOW TO GET back to the original drivers?
[18:25] <FloodBot1> noriyuki: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:25] <Slart> noriyuki: reinstall reinstall reinstall reinstall.. and stop repeating
[18:25] <LSD|Ninja> fyrfry: gksudo displayconfig-gtk
[18:25] <seagullman> chriswr, i dont really know what happens when you install it within windows, i think that means you would be sharing a partition between ubuntu and windows
[18:25] <soundray> askand: also, you well have to protect the braces, e.g. '{}' or \{\}
[18:25] <soundray> *will
[18:25] <XStylus> debCarlos: fdisk -l gave me nothing, not even the non-RAID drive it's presently running on
[18:26] <noriyuki> Slart: reinstall what? Ubuntu??? any other proffessional advice?
[18:26] <chriswr> seagullman: can i still dual boot though
[18:26] <soundray> noriyuki: you already went back to the original drivers.
[18:26] <seagullman> chriswr, is that a question or a statement?
[18:26] <debCarlos> XStylus: You're triying to format in a RAID ?
[18:26] <seagullman> chriswr, sorry a question
[18:26] <chriswr> seagullman: queston
[18:26] <chriswr> lol
[18:26] <seagullman> chriswr, yeah
[18:26] <apo> :/ no ideas at all? Damn.
[18:26] <Slart> noriyuki: ubuntu of course.. nope.. no, haven't got any other advice
[18:26] <rockenrola> noriyuki: run the livecd, check what driver it loads.
[18:26] <soundray> XStylus: sudo fdisk -l
[18:26] <fyrfry> LSD|Ninja: my screen and graphics preferences gives me no option to change it
[18:26] <XStylus> debCarlos: Correct. It's a RAID5 on an Adaptec 2400A.
[18:27] <seagullman> chriswr, see ideally you would have installed ubuntu and windows on different partitions
[18:27] <noriyuki> How can I use Dual view
[18:27] <LSD|Ninja> fyrfry: even after you select your monitor from the monitor section?
[18:27] <fyrfry> LSD|Ninja: it only lets me do 640x480, and my screen has never been on the actual list so I've always been plug n play
[18:27] <Slart> !dual
[18:27] <soundray> noriyuki: you mean two monitors?
[18:27] <Slart> !xinerama
[18:27] <chriswr> seagullman: and what do you mean by that , i have to reinstallit?
[18:27] <noriyuki> I connect a second monitor and it doeesnt show anithyng
[18:27] <Slart> !dualhead
[18:27] <LSD|Ninja> fyrfry: is anything even remotely close to your screen on the list?
[18:27] <debCarlos> XStylus: ok, let me check something in the Ubuntu/Debian wikis...
[18:27] <seagullman> chriswr, but that aside, we still know that to install the next operating system we should create a new partition
[18:27] <noriyuki> soundray: ye 2 monitors
[18:27] <fyrfry> LSD|Ninja: yeah, but I've always gotten best results from plug n play
[18:27] <Jack_Sparrow> noriyuki You cant roll them back unless you made a backup.. Please stop repeating
[18:27] <soundray> noriyuki: set it up through System-Preferences-Screen Resolution
[18:28] <XStylus> Sudo did the trick. It's on /dev/i2o/hda1. Ran cfdisk, same "FATAL ERROR" again
[18:28] <seagullman> chriswr, nah, should be alright, i dont know why it would be bad, but i think its best to have them separate
[18:28] <LSD|Ninja> soundray: that one sucks, displayconfig-gtk is much better
[18:28] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr You didnt install from cd while running windows did you?
[18:28] <joshua__> okay
[18:28] <joshua__> i'm back
[18:28] <joshua__> in need of a bit more help
[18:28] <seagullman> Jack_Sparrow, yes he did
[18:28] <joshua__> anyone know how to do ndiswrapper
[18:28] <chriswr> seagullman: i only have one hdd btw       and yes i did jack_sparrow
[18:28] <noriyuki> soundray: but it doesnt show any other monitor but the laptop's
[18:28] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > joshua__
[18:29] <seagullman> Jack_Sparrow, you might wanna take over if you have the time, i dont know a whole lot
[18:29] <joshua__> how do i install ndiswrapper on ubuntu
[18:29] <joshua__> how do i install ndiswrapper on ubuntu?
[18:29] <soundray> noriyuki: you may have to restart X so it will be detected
[18:29] <LSD|Ninja> fyrfry: try picking a monitor that's reasonably close and then seeing what it gives you. All picking a monitor does really is set the resolution/refresh limits
[18:29] <soundray> !ndiswrapper > joshua__
[18:29] <noriyuki> so it is not plug and play
[18:30] <soundray> noriyuki: no
[18:30] <joshua__> yeah thanks... i try the forum but get stuck
[18:30] <fyrfry> LSD|Ninja: I just tried LCD widescreen 1440x900 which is exactly what I have.  It went to a screen full of grey/white/black squigles and such
[18:30] <Jack_Sparrow> seagullman I just sat back down so I am not up to speed on his problem
[18:30] <joshua__> where is the ndiswrapper directory? and debian directory?
[18:30] <seagullman> chriswr, anyway so what you should do is download gnome partition editor
[18:30] <soundray> joshua__: please read the link that ubottu sent to you
[18:30] <chriswr> seagullman: is it in repos?
[18:31] <noriyuki> soundray: THere is no way to configure it as plug and play
[18:31] <joshua__> soundray i'm using them
[18:31] <joshua__> but i can't find the directory
[18:31] <seagullman> chriswr, you should download an iso for it, search google, burn it to cd and you need to boot off it
[18:31] <soundray> joshua__: what do you mean by 'directory'? Have you installed the package?
[18:31] <fyrfry> LSD|Ninja: I've just tried several different options and they all yield the same thing
[18:31] <debCarlos> XStylus: You said you have downloaded GPARTED from sourceforge ?
[18:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !gparted
[18:32] <XStylus> debCarlos: Correct, but did not succeed in installing it.
[18:32] <soundray> noriyuki: it depends on your graphics card
[18:32] <joshua__> i get a package that ends in tar.gz
[18:32] <LSD|Ninja> fyrfry: sounds like sopmething else is b0rken then, any driver or X upgrades recently?
[18:32] <joshua__> i believe i installed it
[18:32] <chriswr> seagullman: ummm , theres in repos , you just want me to make a cd though?
[18:32] <joshua__> but only have a folder
[18:32] <XStylus> debCarlos: I originally had gparted from apt-get
[18:32] <joshua__> on desktop
[18:32] <soundray> noriyuki: just restart your X and try System-Preferences-Screen Resolution again
[18:32] <seagullman> Jack_Sparrow, he wants to install a third operating system, he has only a windows partition and installed ubuntu within it
[18:32] <chriswr> seagullman: im just gona do windows and ubuntu right now
[18:33] <XStylus> debCarlos: I'm hoping that an updated version of gparted will have the -1 sector glitch rectified, on the hope that the glitch is in gparted and not with the RAID somehow.
[18:33] <noriyuki> soundray: I just rebooted the X, it still doesnt recognize the monitor
[18:33] <soundray> !enter | joshua__
[18:33] <fyrfry> LSD|Ninja: it's been a few days since it happened and I'm not on much these days so I can't remember.  I have done nothing but dl the usual updates for the last few weeks
[18:33] <chriswr> seagullman: just wanting to dual boot them though
[18:33] <noriyuki> soundray: I have a 7400 nvidia
[18:33] <XStylus> debCarlos: But testing initalization of the raid with other methods is a good way to test that though... :)
[18:33] <debCarlos> XStylus: Ok, you extrcted the .tar.bz2 archive ?
[18:33] <seagullman> chriswr, well the one in the repos will allow you to run it in ubuntu, but you wanna boot off the cd so you can modify your harddrive
[18:33] <XStylus> debCarlos: Yes.
[18:33] <debCarlos> XStylus: How do you tried to install it ?
[18:33] <soundray> noriyuki: which driver are you using?
[18:34] <chriswr> seagullman: allright , you know a web site , or do i need to just google it up?
[18:34] <joshua__> ok. so if i got it where would i go to find it?
[18:34] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr get the stand alone livecd of gparted.  that is good advice
[18:34] <debCarlos> *did
[18:34] <seagullman> chriswr, just google "gparted", should be easy
[18:34] <XStylus> debCarlos: Went to the gparted-0.3.8 directory, typed ./configure, got an error.
[18:34] <noriyuki> soundray: hardware drivers > Nvidia acelerated graphics card
[18:34] <chriswr> allright
[18:35] <soundray> noriyuki: in that case, try setting it up through nvidia-settings
[18:35] <debCarlos> XStylus: checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool ??
[18:35] <soundray> noriyuki: you may have to 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings'
[18:35] <Jack_Sparrow> !gparted > chriswr
[18:35] <seagullman> chriswr, sorry am i misunderstanding? you installed ubuntu within windows yes? or did you just try it out or something?
[18:36] <joshua__> can i get help properly loading and running ndiswrapper?
[18:36] <XStylus> debCarlos: More like: "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables. See 'config.log' for more details."
[18:36] <seagullman> if anyone thinks the advice i'm giving is bad, please speak up. i'm not exactly skilled at this but i have done it
[18:36] <seagullman> in regards to chriswr's case
[18:37] <soundray> joshua__: what's wrong with what's on the website? You need to say exactly where you get stuck.
[18:37] <pdlnhrd> can anyone help with getting a tv video card to work?
[18:37] <debCarlos> XStylus: Can you paste your config.log in pastebin ?
[18:37] <Jack_Sparrow> seagullman You are fine...  nudge me if you have a question.. I am trying to get some other work done
[18:37] <debCarlos> !pastebin
[18:37] <chriswr> seagullman: try it out , i have no idea how to , i can run windows and i can run ubuntu , but i want to boot them up at the same time , and have 1 desktop of my cube effect as windows , and the others just my ubuntu
[18:37] <netham45> I'm trying to use xUbuntu, an XBox port of Ubuntu, but it just crashes when I try to start X. From what I've read, I believe it's an issue with the xcalibur video encoder, but I don't know how to fix it. Any ideas?
[18:38] <joshua__> after download the site says to untar it and go to the directory, where is the directory?
[18:38] <XStylus> debCarlos: Just a sec
[18:38] <chriswr> seagullman: right now if i wanted to use windows i would have to fully restart and choose windows
[18:38] <alraune> pdlnhrd :what model ?
[18:38] <seagullman> chriswr, ahh i see
[18:38] <seagullman> chriswr, ok i misunderstood
[18:38] <pdlnhrd> haugpaugge 150 with the cs23416 chip...
[18:38] <soundray> joshua__: that's nonsense. Which site did you get that from?
[18:38] <chriswr> seagullman: do you understand now?
[18:38] <fyrfry> LSD|Ninja: any ideas?
[18:38] <pdlnhrd> alraune:  when i lsmod it shows that it loads the ivtv driver
[18:39] <seagullman> chriswr, look i'm fairly certain you cant have them both booted at the same time
[18:39] <joshua__> i got it from ubuntu wifidocsNdiswrapperOnAMD64
[18:39] <Jack_Sparrow> joshua__ How to install anything in Ubuntu: http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[18:39] <pdlnhrd> alraune: but if i try cat /dev/video0 > foo.mpg  it dosen't capture anything
[18:39] <netham45> what
[18:39] <netham45> what
[18:39] <seagullman> chriswr, but
[18:39] <netham45> augh!
[18:39] <FloodBot1> netham45: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:39] <chriswr> seagullman: cause i have it installed on the c: drive?
[18:39] <XStylus> debCarlos: Sorry to sound ignorant, but what is pastebin and how do I use it?
[18:39] <elo> sup people
[18:39] <td123> joshua__: the directory you untarred it too..
[18:39] <netham45> what's the default "this works with any GFX Card" driver?
[18:39] <debCarlos> !pastebin | XStylus
[18:39] <joshua__> yes i did td123
[18:39] <seagullman> chriswr, you just cant boot 2 operating systems at once
[18:39] <Pici> XStylus: paste.ubuntu.com  paste your text, press submit, give us the new url
[18:40] <node357> netham45, usually "vesa"
[18:40] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr wubi is not the normal partition type install....  At best I can see it for testing, but NOT for everyday use
[18:40] <debCarlos> XStylus: Just copt your config.log and paste there, it's very intuitive :)
[18:40] <seagullman> chriswr, dont think its possible
[18:40] <joshua__> i'm confused
[18:40] <netham45> hrm
[18:40] <netham45> node357: vesa doesn't work. =/
[18:40] <soundray> joshua__: on the top of that page, it says "this is a defunct method written for hoary". What does that tell you?
[18:40] <elo> i have an issue when trying to use cmake, something about choosing the language or something
[18:40] <alraune> pdlnhrd :what model ?
[18:40] <TuxguinIowa> I am having trouble getting normal commerical movie DVD's to play in ubuntu
[18:40] <chriswr> seagullman: thought i saw it on youtube that somone did , h/o
[18:40] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Pasted.
[18:40] <node357> netham45, what vid card do you have?
[18:40] <geek_inn2> what is brainstorm channel name
[18:40] <seagullman> Jack_Sparrow, but using wubi can you run both windows and ubuntu at once?
[18:41] <pdlnhrd> alraune: Hauppauge  PVR 250
[18:41] <noriyuki> soundray: ERROR: Unable to create new X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'. WHY IS THAT?
[18:41] <debCarlos> XStylus: Giv me the direction of the paste
[18:41] <Jack_Sparrow> seagullman no you cant
[18:41] <seagullman> Jack_Sparrow, its impossible to load 2 os's at once yeah?
[18:41] <soundray> joshua__: what chipset is your wireless?
[18:41] <joshua__> realtek
[18:41] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28081/
[18:41] <soundray> noriyuki: try again with 'gksudo nvidia-settings'
[18:41] <alraune> TuxguinIowa :apt-get install vlc  (sudo)
[18:41] <Jack_Sparrow> seagullman full os's no, but vm , vbox wine yes
[18:41] <netham45> node357: actually working on an XBox, that uses an nvidia chip. fairly sure I'm hitting issues with the encoder though.
[18:41] <soundray> joshua__: more precisely?
[18:41] <joshua__> how do i find out more precisely?
[18:41] <Jack_Sparrow> seagullman One still runs under, beside the other
[18:42] <soundray> joshua__: is it a USB or PCI device?
[18:42] <chriswr> jack_sparrow   seagullman: so its not possible for ubuntu and windowsxp
[18:42] <chriswr> ?
[18:42] <seagullman> Jack_Sparrow, i see
[18:42] <joshua__> its build in gateway laptop
[18:42] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr not full versions the way I assume you are thinking
[18:42] <soundray> joshua__: is it listed when you run 'lspci'?
[18:42] <node357> netham45, neat. maybe nvidia-glx would work?
[18:43] <editTHIS> anyone farmiliar with ccd2iso?
[18:43] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr you can install XP in vbox.. but it is not full featured with directx and all of that
[18:43] <netham45> node357: oh, and if it matters, it's 5.10.=/
[18:43] <netham45> ubuntu 5.10
[18:43] <debCarlos> XStylus: Do you have build-essential installed ?
[18:43] <DIFH-iceroot> i have to install a server, why i should use ubuntu-server-edition and not debian 4.0? i dont know what to choose
[18:43] <joshua__> it says ATI tech
[18:43] <ManicDeity> Hello all.  New ubuntu user here.  Just wanted to drop in and see what's up.
[18:43] <netham45> or whatever itis.
[18:43] <chriswr> jack_sparrow: oh , i thought thats what dual boot is , so dual boot is only when you choose in grub menu which to install?
[18:43] <Jack_Sparrow> !edgy
[18:43] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr yes..
[18:44] <elo> can somebody help me with a cmake issue? http://paste.ubuntu.com/28082/
[18:44] <legend2440> joshua__: what model gateway?
[18:44] <Jack_Sparrow> !eol > netham45
[18:44] <soundray> joshua__: find the line that contains Realtek, or do a 'lspci | grep -i realtek'
[18:44] <chriswr> jack_sparrow  gosh im such a noob at this still , lol
[18:44] <editTHIS> anyone farmiliar with ccd2iso?

[18:44] <bleaked> i recently installed kubuntu on a friend's pc who lives out in the country where there is no network access.  i'm going out there today and would like to update his computer, specifically MP3 and other multimedia packages, as well as any necessary apps or package updates.  what would be the most elegant way to go about this?  (i have a cd/dvd burner, and a large external hd at my disposal)
[18:44] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr not a problem, we are here to help and generally glad to help..
[18:44] <joshua__> t1620
[18:44] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: How do I determine that?
[18:44] <soundray> Axenory: well done

[18:45] <netham45> Jack_Sparrow*
[18:45] <Slart> editTHIS: ccd2iso  ... its in the repos.. install it
[18:45] <Slart> editTHIS: sudo apt-get install ccd2iso
[18:45] <editTHIS> ccd2iso is installed
[18:45] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, dpkg -l build-essential
[18:45] <editTHIS> i just dont know the command
[18:45] <Slart> editTHIS: the man ccd2iso or ccd2iso --help will give you more info
[18:45] <XStylus> debCarlos: No packages found
[18:45] <soundray> editTHIS: 'man ccd2iso' should explain it. Alternatively, run 'dd if=/dev/cdrom of=file.iso'
[18:46] <Pici> elo: Perhaps ##c or ##C++ would be a better place to ask this? I dont know, I'm not sure if this is something that is more language or OS related.
[18:46] <editTHIS> i did that it says

[18:46] <debCarlos> XStylus: Then you need to install it :) : $ aptitude install build-essential
[18:47] <Slart> editTHIS: is that unclear in some way?
[18:48] <alraune> TuxguinIowa : ?
[18:48] <chriswr> jack_sparrow: so what if i get virtual box , will i be able to play some of the latest games , or is it just like playing games in linux ........ sucky
[18:48] <XStylus> debCarlos: In progress... :)
[18:48] <Slart> chriswr: you won't be playing any games using virtualbox, afaik
[18:48] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr Dont plan on running the latest games in any vm
[18:48] <XStylus> debCarlos: Done.
[18:48] <debCarlos> XStylus: Ok, try now
[18:48] <debCarlos> ./configure
[18:48] <editTHIS> ok i have read the help it just doesnt clearly explain what to do
[18:48] <JonathanEllis> rockenrola: Thanks. When I redirect output into some file, the cron jobs work. When I dont redirect, they dont! Wierd. However I found this tutorial http://www.tutorial5.com/content/view/95/51/ that recommends redirecting into >/dev/null 2>&1 which also seems to work.
[18:49] <chriswr> jack_sparrow slart: so im better off dual booting?
[18:49] <soundray> editTHIS: it does. You just have to *dare* to understand
[18:49] <Slart> chriswr: for playing games, yes
[18:49] <axenory> soundray: is there a way to make a backup so when I reinstall ubuntu I can have all the updates and programs downloaded and installed
[18:49] <joshua__> i'm not seeing anything soundray
[18:49] <herrmess> !transmission > herrmess
[18:49] <soundray> !clone | axenory
[18:49] <ManicDeity> I dual boot with XP specifically for games.  Only way to run them is native.
[18:49] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr In my opinion.. yes.. may of us do,.  Let each os do what it does best.  I use XP for games, and NO internet, and ubuntu for everything else
[18:49] <rubydiamond> How can I install Windows XP on ubuntu
[18:49] <soundray> joshua__: is one listed when you run 'lsusb'?
[18:49] <Jack_Sparrow> many
[18:49] <joshua__> the closest i see is  Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 01)
[18:50] <herrmess> rubydiamond: VirtualBox
[18:50] <XStylus> debCarlos: "error: *** uuid library (libuuid) not found"
[18:50] <axenory> soundray: but I wont be cloning the sound problem that I have right?
[18:50] <ManicDeity> Of course I did see a handy guide for turning Windows 2008 Server into  workstation config.  That just sounds fun.
[18:50] <editTHIS> there is no man and --help only outputs usage ccd2iso <.img filename> <.iso filename> but what does that mean?
[18:50] <alraune> rubydiamond : as a virtual mchine
[18:50] <rubydiamond> yeah
[18:50] <bonez45> I just loaded ubuntu on my PC at home... and it loaded right up... but I wanted to install compiz-fusion.. and it said that installed too, using apt.. but when I log in I get xsession errors... says xgl can't loa
[18:50] <bonez45> load
[18:50] <herrmess> rubydiamond: But it's limited (sound and graphics)
[18:50] <soundray> axenory: you didn't install the faulty OSS drivers through a deb package, so no.
[18:50] <debCarlos> XStylus: Wait a sec, i'm having same error :) , try installing libuuid $ apt-get install libuuid
[18:50] <bonez45> how does one get xserver-xgl to load and run?
[18:51] <ZeroOP> hello folks :)
[18:51] <XStylus> debCarlos: Already tried. No go
[18:51] <barni> how i check my error log
[18:51] <editTHIS> soundray: there is no man and --help only outputs usage ccd2iso <.img filename> <.iso filename> but what does that mean?
[18:51] <Slart> editTHIS: open a terminal, write ccd2iso <input your img filename here> <input what you want to resulting iso file to be called here>
[18:51] <XStylus> debCarlos: "Couldn't find package libuuid"
[18:51] <joshua__> did that help? It says Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 01)
[18:51] <editTHIS> do i put the <>?
[18:51] <soundray> editTHIS: it means if you have a ccd file named file.ccd, you can turn it into an iso by issuing the command 'ccd2iso file.ccd file.iso'
[18:51] <axenory> soundray: well actually i think I did
[18:51] <Pici> editTHIS: no.
[18:51] <Slart> editTHIS: nope
[18:51] <hmuller> I have normal sound through the speakers, but no pc speaker i.e. system beeps.  Where do I look to restore this?
[18:51] <paolo> hi! something caused a bug when i changed screen resolution, now I can only see the screen if the resolution is set to 640x480 and when i try to set higher resolution I see a mess in the screen... what could I do? plz help me :) thnks
[18:51] <debCarlos> XStylus: ok, i'm looking on google, hold on a sec :)
[18:51] <chriswr> jack_sparrow: ok , well my windows xp is kinda slow at booting up cause i loaded it down before switching to ubuntu , is there a way to do a full system restart and just wipe my drive but save my ubuntu so i dont have to reinstall it
[18:51] <herrmess> Anyone knows if/why transmission (the bt client) is limited to 2 torrents?
[18:51] <XStylus> debCarlos: No prob. :)
[18:51] <soundray> axenory: then don't go down the cloning route
[18:51] <piasdom> hello
[18:52] <piasdom> can soneone help me /w a segmentation fault ?
[18:52] <Slart> herrmess: I'm just guessing but I think some clients need one open port per torrent.. it could have just two ports to chose from?
[18:52] <td123> herrmess: I think the limit can be set in the preferences. btw, having more then 2 torrents active won't get them any quicker :)
[18:52] <axenory> soundray: so how can I make a backup only for the programs installed at least so I dont have to write down everything and install them again.....?
[18:52] <debCarlos> XStylus: Wich ubuntu version are you using?
[18:52] <XStylus> debCarlos: 8.04.1
[18:52] <debCarlos> XStylus: ok
[18:53] <XStylus> debCarlos: Check that, ubuntu SERVER 8.04.1
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr save /home to a usb..
[18:53] <ManicDeity> chriswr the XP is on a different partition, right?  Just wipe that partition.
[18:53] <herrmess> td123: You're partially right; 2 torrents don't fill up my entire d/l bandwidth.
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr I need to run but there is lots of good help in here
[18:53] <joshua__> soundray its says: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 01). does that help?
[18:53] <herrmess> Slart: Actually it has 1 port to configure...
[18:53] <Flannel> XStylus: the package is libuuid1
[18:53] <soundray> joshua__: no, that's your wired Ethernet
[18:53] <herrmess> Sometimes it won't even Open a new torrent file. And the file is ok, I checked it.
[18:54] <Jack_Sparrow> ManicDeity No it isnt..
[18:54] <hmuller> axenory: from the dpkg manpage: dpkg --get-selections > myselections
[18:54] <sysop1972_> Is there someone who is good with samba that could please help me out?
[18:54] <XStylus> debCarlos: "libuuid1 is already the newest version"
[18:54] <legend2440> soundray: here is info for joshua__ gateway t-1620  there is link for drivers including wifi drivers for Windows. i don't have a laptop or wifi so i can't help him install the drivers with ndiswrapper or however its done    http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/2007/Triton/1014881R/1014881Rnv.shtml
[18:54] <XStylus> Er... sorry, that was for Flannel
[18:54] <soundray> axenory: do you remember the name of the package that ruined it for you? If so, you can edit the file ~/my-packages and remove the lines that relate toit.
[18:54] <chriswr> manicdeity: i ran the ubuntu install cd in windows , does that make a difference?
[18:54] <alraune> rubydiamond : i've done just the other way, but ubuntu got working imaging machines, too
[18:54] <Slart> herrmess: hmm.. then I have no idea.. perhaps the developer thought only using two torrents at a time was a decent setting everyone should use? =)
[18:55] <axenory> mmmmm its getting a little complicated I cant understand pretty well:)
[18:55] <herrmess> Slart :)    my guess is that the upload is low so the torrents are limited by number.
[18:55] <joshua__> thanks legend
[18:55] <soundray> legend2440: thanks -- joshua__, is that what you have, a gateway t-1620?
[18:55] <joshua__> yes
[18:55] <bonez45> xgl?
[18:55] <Slart> herrmess: sounds reasonable too =)
[18:55] <herrmess> Didn't find any google on this... maybe I'll check the code :)
[18:55] <axenory> I will come later I have to eat.....lll
[18:55] <td123> herrmess: try using a different app for torrents if you're unhappy, that's the great thing about choice:P
[18:56] <soundray> axenory: then don't clone -- just reinstall and install only the packages you know are safe
[18:56] <axenory> thanks evrone though for you help!! seeya!
[18:56] <herrmess> td123: That's the thing, I'm thinking Azureus but the bloat, it itches...
[18:56] <ozzloy> other computers are visible on the windows network, but when i click on them in nautilus it comes up blank.  how do i see the contents?
[18:56] <herrmess> Other apps are less appealing.
[18:56] <Slart> herrmess: actually azureus is getting better and better.. or you can run utorrent in wine
[18:56] <slashzul> how do you mount a windows shared server ?
[18:56] <td123> herrmess: ya... azureus is soo bloated. try something really lightweight
[18:56] <debCarlos> XStylus: This is weird, i can't find the source of libuuid..
[18:56] <soundray> legend2440: don't you think we should try native drivers first?
[18:57] <elo> CMake Error: your CXX compiler: "CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER-NOTFOUND" was not found.   Please set CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER to a valid compilerpath or name. <--- ??

[18:57] <debCarlos> !find libuuid
[18:57] <chriswr> slart: but azureus is really slow running
[18:57] <legend2440> soundray: your the expert i know nothing of wireless
[18:57] <hsk> s
[18:57] <Slart> herrmess: I think the developer worked together with the wine people or something.. it's supposed to work nicely according to those that have tried it
[18:57] <soundray> legend2440: I wish I was
[18:57] <hsk> exit
[18:58] <slashzul> how do you mount a WINDOWS shared server ?
[18:58] <debCarlos> XStylus: Try installing libuuid-perl
[18:58] <soundray> joshua__: have you located your wireless device in lsusb output?
[18:58] <Slart> chriswr: slow running? I've never noticed it being slow.. but I've got plenty of memory for it to use
[18:58] <sns> request: sample xorg.conf file with 16:9 resolution

[18:58] <barni> Slart: I think nothing in the error logs
[18:58] <debCarlos> XStylus: mmm
[18:59] <barni> Slart: it freezes after the same amount of time
[18:59] <chriswr> slart: i think it would run fine on 1gb of ram , but idk , maybe my computers just a little screwy
[18:59] <Slart> barni: ok.. well.. the most common reason for computer crashing after a while would be overheating in my experience.. are the fans working ok?
[18:59] <nachumatalamata> ...?
[18:59] <debCarlos> XStylus: Ok, i found a page that says that you may need e2fsprogs-devel
[19:00] <Slart> chriswr: I've got 4 GB of memory.. but it runs fine day after day..night after night
[19:00] <karine> bon quoi
[19:00] <barni> Slart: I opened th computer, and i saw they work
[19:00] <Slart> !fr | karine
[19:00] <barni> Slart: I also put some sensors of pc temperature
[19:00] <bonez45> anyone know how to get xgl working, ?
[19:00] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Cool. How to I install that?
[19:00] <chriswr> slart: the 3gb of extra memory that you got might be making a diference
[19:00] <barni> cpu: 46C
[19:00] <Slart> barni: then I don't know what could be wrong.. but take all the info you've told me.. put it all into one line with a question and perhaps someone else can help you
[19:01] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, $ apt-get install libuuid-devel
[19:01] <soundray> joshua__: can you do a 'lsmod | grep rtl8187' and let me know if there's any output
[19:01] <summatusmentis> so I'm running ubuntu inside of Vmware Fusion, and I've got two virtual network interfaces. If I let the machine sit, for some reason the interface that provides a net connection(through NAT) stops working. Thoughts?
[19:02] <soundray> summatusmentis: is it the beta of Fusion?
[19:02] <barni> please help: my pc freezes after the same amount of time, fans work well, and cpu temp:46C
[19:02] <XStylus> debCarlos: "Couldn't find package libuuid-devel"

[19:02] <soundray> summatusmentis: which Ubuntu version?
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr no
[19:03] <herrmess> Any recommended lightweight IDE?
[19:03] <herrmess> (for c/c++)
[19:03] <Slart> !ide | herrmess

[19:03] <sidelil> herrmess, I like Geany
[19:03] <Slart> herrmess: anjuta is one
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr There are some workarounds on the wubi site but best to start over
[19:03] <summatusmentis> soundray: most recent... ummm Hardy?
[19:03] <herrmess> LSD|N u mean vi :)

[19:03] <Guest46270> hallo. i habe a problem with my ubuntu 8.04. i deinstalled evolution and after restart of the computer a can´t see anything on my background. No menu or such else:(
[19:03] <chriswr> jack_sparrow alraune: ........ oooook , i got 2 completly diff answers
[19:04] <Slart> herrmess: eclipse is anything but light according to the rumours
[19:04] <joshua__> soundray am i to type that the same way you did. if so, I got nothing back
[19:04] <soundray> summatusmentis: does it work when you use the bridging option?
[19:04] <chriswr> jack_sparrow: oh
[19:04] <LSD|Ninja> eclipse is java iirc, it's almost impossible for a java app to be 'light'
[19:04] <soundray> joshua__: yes, everything between the 'quote' marks
[19:04] <joshua__> okay. I did that and got nothing back
[19:04] <summatusmentis> soundray: I don't know, I don't believe bridging works when I'm on wireless
[19:04] <herrmess> Anjuta... ok, let's try.
[19:04] <soundray> joshua__: try a 'sudo modprobe rtl8187' and see if it reports anything
[19:04] <Slart> herrmess: pida is almost a text editor.. with the small extra that when it starts it tells you "Pida loves you" =)
[19:04] <alraune> chriswr : Ill dialog jack_sparrow, wait..
[19:05] <Jack_Sparrow> alraune He installed using wubi...
[19:05] <debCarlos> XStylus: I'm looking for it, but, while i look, can you paste the output of $ ls -a /dev   in pastebin =
[19:05] <debCarlos> *= ?
[19:05] <soundray> summatusmentis: it's not your wireless in the host going down?
[19:05] <joshua__> okay. it just asked for my password
[19:05] <Jack_Sparrow> alraune His ubuntu install is in a file on the ntfs drive c
[19:05] <soundray> joshua__: did you enter it?
[19:05] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Gotcha. Just a sec
[19:05] <joshua__> I placed in my password and got nothing back
[19:05] <sidelil> excuse me, I've installed by mistake ume-config-netbook and i can't remove it anymore. How can I get rid of it? It annoys me and doesnt let me upgrade the system
[19:05] <barni> please help: my pc freezes after the same amount of time, fans work well, and cpu temp:46C
[19:06] <soundray> joshua__: good. Does 'dmesg | tail' say anything interesting about rtl and/or wireless?
[19:06] <legend2440> soundray: here are instructions for joshua__   card  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/RealtekRTL8187b
[19:06] <chriswr> jack_sparrow: well can i just save my home folder on ubuntu , and wipe my whole drive , then reinstall ubuntu in windows after i get done installing xp just like before and replace that home folder that it makes with this one?
[19:06] <summatusmentis> soundray: no, the wireless on my host works perfectly. I can't figure out what the issue would be
[19:06] <kernelupdate> I set my pc to update the kernel in the morning, and left my house. Upon coming home, I see  that it asks me what to do with menu.lst, however after that it does nothing and doesn't complete the update system. After that things are messed up. How can I fix this?
[19:06] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28087/
[19:06] <ere4si> sidelil: how did you install it?
[19:06] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr avoid installing from inside windows with wubi
[19:06] <sidelil> ere4si, apt-get
[19:06] <Jack_Sparrow> I need to run..
[19:07] <chriswr> jack_sparrow: can i still dual boot other wise?
[19:07] <ere4si> sidelil: sudo apt-get remove --purge   should work
[19:07] <soundray> legend2440: I know, I was hoping to avoid the compile route, because Ubuntu may have updated the driver since that page was written
[19:07] <Jack_Sparrow> chriswr yes, you can still dual boot if you do a normal install on a sep partition
[19:07] <sidelil> ere4si, it doesn't unfortunately
[19:07] <legend2440> soundray:   oh ok
[19:07] <kernelupdate> Anyone?
[19:07] <ere4si> sidelil: any errors get mentioned?
[19:08] <chriswr> jack_sparrow umm befor you run , can you give me a link that could tell me how to do that?
[19:08] <soundray> summatusmentis: I don't know then... I run gutsy in Fusion, and I only lose the network when the host wireless is flaky. (Unrelated tip: stay away from the beta 1, it doesn't play at all well with Ubuntu)
[19:08] <rand0m> is it imperative to do all updates in ubuntu?

[19:08] <sidelil> ere4si, yes, it's trying to overwrite xorg.conf and it's not allowed. It says that dpkg exits with error code 2
[19:08] <kernelupdate> I set my pc to update the kernel in the morning, and left my house. Upon coming home, I see  that it asks me what to do with menu.lst, however after that it does nothing and doesn't complete the update system. After that things are messed up. How can I fix this?
[19:08] <summatusmentis> soundray: :-/ alright, thanks
[19:08] <herrmess> How do I configure compiz to do the "box" desk-switching?

[19:09] <Hardy_Feisty> how can I connect to a pc in the local network with nautilus if I know the ip ?
[19:09] <debCarlos> XStylus: Ok, i find that your local disk (Not the RAID) is /dev/sda, maybe the output of $ ls /dev/i2o can reveal more :)
[19:09] <Slart> herrmess: ask in #compizfusion .. that's where the visual effects people hang out
[19:09] <fxkr> i just removed a user account (via deluser), and he ist still loggged on. i could of course just quit that session, but... how can i kill it ?

[19:09] <maryam> hey guys, I had an older Belkin F5d7010 V5001, it worked out of the box with Gutsy as well as Hardy. However, it's performance lately has been pretty bad, so I contacted Belkin, and they sent me a replacement. The replacement is a V. 8000. I plugged this into the laptop, and restricted drivers manager detected it, and said that its an Atheros card, and gave me two checkboxes to check for it, I did, then it restarted my system.
[19:09] <maryam> Well, now it says that the drivers are in place, but I am unable to access the wireless card
[19:09] <XStylus> debCarlos: Just a sec then
[19:09] <Slart> herrmess: sorry..  #compiz-fusion
[19:09] <herrmess> deathchimp yes
[19:09] <crashsystems> hardy_Feisty: how do you want to connect? file sharing?
[19:09] <daxroc> *under a default install , added my username + pass via smbpasswd -L -a name, smbpasswd -L -e name
[19:10] <maryam> Could someone help me figure out what chipset I have so that I could try to get this darn thing to work, either with ndiswrapper or some other way
[19:10] <deathchimp> hermess alright, then you need advanced desktop effects settings
[19:10] <XStylus> debCarlos: Heck, I can type it. ".  ..  hda"
[19:10] <Slart> fxkr: slay it.. you might have to install slay first though
[19:10] <maryam> I would REALLY appreciate any help.
[19:10] <barni> is it normal that a cpu temp is 46
[19:10] <deathchimp> hermess you can get it through add remove
[19:10] <ere4si> sidelil: I would do  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg then try to remove --purge
[19:10] <phaverkamp> @maryam Start with lspci
[19:10] <Hardy_Feisty> yes crashsystems just how do I enter an ip in windos its two backslashs
[19:10] <fxkr> Slart: now thats interesting: no built-in tools?
[19:10] <maryam> okay
[19:10] <Slart> barni: yes.. it's fine.. a bit cold even compared to my computer
[19:10] <soundray> maryam: with recent Atheros chips, it helps to try a pre-release driver. There are instructions on the eeepc page, I'll dig it out...
[19:10] <joshua__> soundray here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28088/
[19:11] <crashsystems> hardy_feisty: smb://<IP_ADDRESS>/share_name
[19:11] <zill> Can anyone tell me how to set up the Apache2 Mime type to serve application/xhtml+xml?
[19:11] <Slart> fxkr: well.. there might be... but I don't remember them.. I do remember slay though.. might be the barbarian in me =)
[19:11] <Hardy_Feisty> ah ok
[19:11] <soundray> maryam: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes -- scroll down to Workaround: Madwifi (recommended)

[19:11] <maryam> 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. Unknown device 001d (rev 01)
[19:11] <maryam> I get that with lspci
[19:11] <acer_> sasa
[19:11] <fxkr> Slart: just an idea... i wonder if "killall" can do it - talk about barbarian :)
[19:11] <sidelil> ere4si, ok thanks
[19:11] <deathchimp> herrmess you should be able to figure the rest out, have fun
[19:11] <Pici> Is there a diff like tool or a diff argument that will tell me what percentage of two files are different?
[19:11] <soundray> joshua__: I'd like the output of 'dmesg | tail -n 30' please
[19:11] <cool> whats a good  thats not wine  and free?????
[19:12] <deathchimp> cool, nothing
[19:12] <Slart> fxkr: perhaps...
[19:12] <herrmess> Whoaaaaa settings manager looks awesome.
[19:12] <Slart> cool: nethack is a good free
[19:12] <daxroc> Is there an actual recent guide for samba ?
[19:12] <kernelupdate> Slart: I was able to boot(set it to not change menu.lst) but since the update didn't complete there were some problems. I had to uninstall the nvidia drivers and reinstall them. I'm not sure if my system stability is jeopardized however which is why I'm consulting here
[19:12] <Pici> !games | cool
[19:12] <maryam> phaverkamp, soundray : 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. Unknown device 001d (rev 01)
[19:12] <maryam>  is what I get with lspci
[19:12] <soundray> maryam: try the eeepc instructions
[19:12] <maryam> soundray: will do
[19:12] <Slart> kernelupdate: can you run the update again?
[19:12] <deathchimp> !games | deathchimp
[19:12] <debCarlos> How can i do (?) a ssh server in Ubuntu ? I mean, wich command do i have to use ?
[19:13] <joshua__> soundray here you go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28089/
[19:13] <kernelupdate> Slart: I'm really worried because it's a kernel update. I ran an update(another update) but I didn't see the kernel update in the updates list. I'm worried because there was no confirmation if the update earlier(the kernel one) was completed
[19:13] <phaverkamp> @maryam Atheros chipsets usally work in Ubuntu as far as I know, cant help as much as a like from here
[19:13] <Slart> cool: also check out happy penguin.. www.happypenguin.org
[19:13] <dannyboy> how can i get a windows mobile cell phone to work with ubuntu?
[19:13] <indra> ssh -C -D number_of_ports username@remotemashine
[19:13] <kernelupdate> .36 or something. <IP_ADDRESS>.36 or something was it?
[19:13] <fxkr> Slart: strange. "sudo slay sandbox" says killing all processes .. done, but the session is still alive.
[19:14] <soundray> joshua__: good. Can you see a wireless interface when you open System-Administration-Network ?
[19:14] <Slart> fxkr: perhaps it needs a -9.. not sure though.. checked the man page?
[19:14]  * daxroc has just about had it with ubuntus wanabe zeroconf .... pita especially with the latest release (hardy lets break everything ) :O
[19:14] <palomer> hello
[19:14] <joshua__> no i do not
[19:14] <palomer> how do I burn an img file?
[19:14] <fxkr> Slart: the other interesting thing is: the sandbox user's prompt now looks like that: "I have no name!@qux:/$" (qux is my computers name)
[19:14] <fxkr> Slart: yes i did.
[19:14] <Slart> palomer: if you're lucky you can just rename it to .iso.. then burn that
[19:14] <crashsystems> @palomer are you in ubuntu or windows?
[19:15] <soundray> joshua__: in that case, you should try to compile a driver yourself. Instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/RealtekRTL8187b
[19:15] <Slart> palomer: I've been lucky so far.. haven't found a img-file that wasn't also an iso
[19:15] <jeffluo> Is there anyone from China?
[19:15] <neoncore> hi i need help please
[19:15] <Slart> !ch | jeffluo
[19:15] <Slart> !cn | jeffluo
[19:15] <daxroc> I would much prefer a more stable release than many poor ones ... Guess I am alone on that one
[19:15] <joshua__> soundray thanks. I'm sure that will work
[19:15] <fxkr> Slart: aaaaaaaaha. "sudo killall -u sandbox" --> Cannot find user sandbox
[19:15] <neoncore> i started to install ubuntu 8.04 useing wubi
[19:16] <kernelupdate> Slart: any way I can know how there's no problems?
[19:16] <neoncore> when i reboot
[19:16] <debCarlos> XStylus: ?
[19:16] <LSD|Ninja> daxroc: LTS releases let breakage slide because they have 3 years to fix it
[19:16] <Slart> kernelupdate: mm.. I would try doing that update again... if it wasn't completed it should redo it..
[19:16] <fxkr> Slart: which plays nicely together with the "I have no name!" prompt
[19:16] <neoncore> it kind loads some
[19:16] <neoncore> after that
[19:16] <Slart> kernelupdate: but check what kernel you have running.. uname -a
[19:16] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Still here
[19:16] <neoncore> Loading Please wait
[19:16] <neoncore> and
[19:16] <debCarlos> XStylus, did you make the ls -a /dev/i2o  ?
[19:16] <neoncore> tell's me if i want to execute commands as root
[19:16] <neoncore> sudo and etc..
[19:16] <Slart> fxkr: but slay is just supposed to kill the processes of a user.. not remove the user itself.. weird
[19:16] <Guest46270> hallo. I have a problem with my ubuntu 8.04. I deinstalles Evolution without "evolution-data-server-common" but when i restart my computer i only see my background. Can anybody help me?:(
[19:16] <kernelupdate> Linux Sky 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 21:01:46 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[19:17] <fxkr> Slart: i removed the user beforehand, as i said
[19:17] <yousuf> hi to all
[19:17] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Wasn't even worth postbinning. It was just this:  " .     ..    hda"
[19:17] <Slart> kernelupdate: that sounds like the latest one.. perhaps it was completed then
[19:17] <Slart> fxkr: ah..
[19:17] <kernelupdate> I hope so...
[19:17] <neoncore> hello please help
[19:17] <kernelupdate> it's just that I don't know if any other update was incomplete...
[19:17] <fxkr> Slart: but i have another idea: i ran "whoami", which gave me: "whoami: cannot find name for user ID 1002"
[19:17] <soundray> joshua__: if not, ask the nice people in this channel again -- be patient though, sometimes it takes some time to find someone who will help.
[19:17] <kernelupdate> thanks anyway
[19:17] <daxroc> LSD|Ninja: Are distros with xxx breakages not called alpha / beta at least , how can they pawn that off as being stable ?
[19:17] <fxkr> Slart: at least now i know his id. lets see *evil grin*
[19:17] <Slart> kernelupdate: if nothing else.. this is a good time to do a backup ... just in case =)
[19:17] <Slart> fxkr: hehe
[19:18] <joshua__> thanks. very appreciative
[19:18] <neoncore> WILL ANY BODY HELP ME?
[19:18] <LSD|Ninja> daxroc: welcome to open source software
[19:18] <Hardy_Feisty> is ubuntu really financed by some billionaire?
[19:18] <kernelupdate> Slart: It's okay I keep nothing in my ubuntu partition, and I have the 32bit partition :) Just that I'd rather know if things are messing up
[19:18] <Slart> neoncore: not if you keep shouting
[19:18] <LSD|Ninja> Hardy_Feisty: Mark Shuttleworth, yes
[19:18] <neoncore> well i have reason to keep shouting
[19:18] <itsme> hi everyone, Im in a doubt... Im tryin to find out what version of ubuntu its the best for my laptop... I have an Intel Centrino duo, and I saw there are two versions of ubuntu, 32bits and 64bits... which one should I download?
[19:18] <Slart> neoncore: but it helps if you actually repeat your question
[19:19] <Slart> neoncore: you have a reason to shout at us?.. oh.. please tell me that reason
[19:19] <XStylus> debCarlos: Did you still need me to postbin it anyway...?
[19:19] <daxroc> LSD|Ninja: Thinking of going back to Gentoo , at least their honest :P
[19:19] <debCarlos> XStylus, mm, weird :) ... anyway, good news, i already solved the lbuuid thing, you have to download this package ( http://ufpr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/e2fsprogs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.0.tar.gz), it is e2fsprogs-libraries. Then install it, for that, move tha package to /usr/src, then extract it and run as root # ./configure && make && make install
[19:19] <Hardy_Feisty> maybe he wants to become ruler of the world with some hidden virus
[19:19] <neoncore> becouse i said the question with no answer at all
[19:19] <LSD|Ninja> How did he make his money anyway, he's South African and apartheid's only been over for 15 years or so...
[19:19] <debCarlos> XStylus, no, don't pastebin it :)
[19:19] <dannyboy> how can i get a windows mobile cell phone to work with ubuntu?
[19:19] <palomer> crashsystems, ubuntu
[19:19] <jpratt> Im trying to install CDEmu and I need libmirage1
[19:19] <td123> neoncore: stop acting like a spoiled child and find the answer yourself, if people don't know what the answer is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[19:19] <XStylus> debCarlos: Cool on the libuuid. I'd be happier if we can fix the raid though... :P
[19:20] <itsme> 32bits or 64bits for intel centrino duo??
[19:20] <LSD|Ninja> itsme: Core Duo or Core 2 Duo?
[19:20] <neoncore> at least they could say td123
[19:20] <Slart> neoncore: and how does that make it ok for you to shout at me? my name is Markus, I'm from Sweden.. I work as a teacher during the daytime, I sometimes help people out here because it's fun most of the time.. now tell me again why you are shouting at me
[19:20] <neoncore> that they don't know
[19:20] <itsme> LSD|Ninja, intel centrino 2 duo
[19:20] <XStylus> debCarlos: Let me take a moment to try the libuuid stuff for a sec
[19:20] <LSD|Ninja> itsme: Core Duo is 32, Core 2 Duo is either/or (though unless you have or need more than 4GB RAM stick with 32)
[19:20] <debCarlos> XStylus: It's another step to the solution... install a easy to use GUI
[19:20] <Pici> !patience | neoncore
[19:20] <palomer> renaming the img to iso doesn't work
[19:21] <td123> neoncore: that's not how it works. If people don't know, they usually don't answer, otherwise there would be too much messages for anyone to read
[19:21] <deathchimp> so, i have a question. Can anyone point me to an article explaining why flash wont play any audio in hardy?
[19:21] <dru> hey on my moms linux computer at her house .. the internet does not connect, so i brought the tower over to my house and and the internet connected fine right away ... does this mean it is her modem that is not connecting or what?
[19:21] <XStylus> debCarlos: 404 error on the link
[19:21] <itsme> LSD|Ninja, it says intel core 2 duo, i have 2gb ram
[19:21] <Slart> palomer: there is a img to iso conversion program.. it's probably named something like img2iso.. search in synaptic for img, I'm sure you'll find it
[19:21] <debCarlos> XStylus: Do a $ wget http://the link i give you   :)
[19:22] <LSD|Ninja> itsme: stick with 32 bit then
[19:22] <deathchimp> so, i have a question. Can anyone point me to an article explaining why flash wont play any audio in hardy?
[19:22] <itsme> LSD|Ninja, thank you
[19:22] <sysop1972_> I created a linux user without a shell to place a few shared folders in and then created all my linux/samba users that match my windows worksations.  I can access the folders but cannot write to them.  Can someone help me out?\
[19:22] <neoncore> well anyway my proplem is i installed wubi and downloaded iso version x86 cuz i got intel celerone after i reboot it shows logo and that loading bar then goes to something like terminal and says loading please wait while that there is print tell's me if u want use command use sudo etc.. but it won't load i wait for 5min and nothing
[19:22] <daxroc> itsme: you can check your processor specs under the live cd via cat /proc/cpuinfo
[19:23] <Slart> deathchimp: flash and sound sometimes work.. sometimes not.. are you using pulseaudio?
[19:23] <deathchimp> slart yes, all that works on my system
[19:23] <neoncore> deathchimp is your card builtin
[19:23] <neoncore> ?
[19:23] <Slart> deathchimp: do this.. "sudo apt-get install pavucontrol paman padevchooser" those are pulseaudio tools
[19:24] <deathchimp> slart, yes AVI files play fine, sound card is built in, but only cause the other one is creative XFI
[19:24] <Slart> deathchimp: some or even all of them might already be installed
[19:24] <Guest_669jio> hi guyws :)
[19:24] <neoncore> yo
[19:24] <jpratt> Where can I get libmirage1
[19:24] <hiptobecubic> i'm using wine and it changes my resolution and i cant get it back to normal. how can i make wine start thing in windowed mode?
[19:24] <IloveIT> check this: it'S the best song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[19:24] <IloveIT> http://rapidshare.com/files/130430991/Alex_Gaudino_-_Destination_Calabria.mp3.html
[19:25] <Slart> hiptobecubic: in the winecfg tell it to emulate a desktop or something like that
[19:25] <deathchimp> slart, thank you, have to wait for an update to complete before i try it
[19:25] <neoncore> Start did you read my proplem
[19:25] <legend2440> deathchimp: do what Slart says but also sometimes installing   libflashsupport   helps  its a Support library for sound output of Flash 9 with pulseaudio
[19:25] <Slart> deathchimp: my guess is that flash is trying to play audio on your xfi or something.. but we'll see when those tools are installed
[19:26] <dannyboy> how can i make a windows mobile cell phone work under ubuntu?
[19:26] <Slart> legend2440 speaks wise things =).. I forgot about the libflash thingy
[19:26] <legend2440> Slart:   lol
[19:26] <neoncore> i don't think that can be made dannyboy i think those mobiles uses diffrent api
[19:26] <neoncore> then desktops systems
[19:27] <uatec> Hello there

[19:27] <fxkr> Slart: i nearly have it: for pid in `ps -U 1002 h -o pid` ; do ; kill $pid ; done
[19:27] <debCarlos> XStylus, you have to run all commands as root :)
[19:27] <wild_oscar> how do I disable the internet on gnome?
[19:27] <fxkr> Slart: but: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;'

[19:30] <neoncore> use wine
[19:30] <rexus> drink wine
[19:30] <dr_Willis> wine /path/to/command.exe
[19:30] <bbarton> yea but i can't get the syntax right
[19:30] <robdeman> Slart: Not sure
[19:31] <fxkr> Slart: thanks for helping. and now i'll go read that Advanced Bash Scripting Guide =)
[19:31] <Slart> bbarton: I think there's a wine command for command line programs too... but start by telling us what the program is
[19:31] <kaushal> hia ll
[19:31] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28095/
[19:31] <Slart> fxkr: you're welcome
[19:31] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, i'll check it
[19:31] <jeffluo> is there anyone use xfce?
[19:31] <neoncore> Start did you read my message or you don't know the propelm
[19:31] <neoncore> proplem*
[19:31] <bbarton> ok.... i did "$ wine /home/blah blah blah and it says cannot find..
[19:31] <bbarton> the path is right though
[19:32] <Slart> neoncore: I've never used wubi.. and I've never heard of that kind of problem.. sorry
[19:32] <jeffluo> How can I expand the length of xfce launcher?
[19:32] <dr_Willis> spaces in the pathname - demand quotes, or escapes
[19:32] <bbarton> ??
[19:32] <deathchimp> slart pulseaudio tools are now installed, what should I check?
[19:32] <Pici> dr_Willis: you mean escape?
[19:32] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, You're running it as root ?
[19:32] <uatec> I activated the Window Decoration plugin using the compiz config settings manager...
[19:32] <bbarton> i'm really new to nix
[19:32] <uatec> now the window manager is all up the spout
[19:32] <Slart> deathchimp: did you get a small icon in the systray.. with an audio plug and some wire?
[19:32] <jeffluo> the custom panel.
[19:32] <uatec> there is no border or anything
[19:33] <deathchimp> slart negative
[19:33] <uatec> just a close button, and a title and stuff
[19:33] <Slart> deathchimp: ok.. run this in a terminal, pavucontrol
[19:33] <XStylus> debCarlos: Logged in as root? No (can that be done?). Sudo'd? Yes.
[19:33] <uatec> if i turn it off i have no window manager
[19:33] <easylabs> hi
[19:33] <Slart> deathchimp: you should get a small window
[19:33] <uatec> how can i make there be a border?
[19:33] <bbarton> ok... now i get bad exe format.... it was a dns client for linux..
[19:33] <deathchimp> slart got it
[19:33] <dr_Willis> bbarton,  wine 'this/path/has spaces/in/its/name/spaces here also.exe'
[19:33] <jpratt> Please help me I want to install CDemu-daemon and I need Libmirage1
[19:33] <Slart> deathchimp: ok.. now start firefox and go to something with flash
[19:33] <uatec> or how can i disable it and enable another settings manager?
[19:33] <uatec> s/settings/window
[19:33] <Slart> deathchimp: youtube will work nicely
[19:34] <jeffluo> much appreciate to help me solve this issue....
[19:34] <wild_oscar> does anyone know what "enable networking" checkbox is for in nm-applet?
[19:34] <easylabs> i have a problem with wine, anyone can help¿?
[19:34] <debCarlos> XStylus, ok, it can be done with $ su ... but it's better do it with $ sudo ... you tried sudoing ?
[19:34] <Slart> deathchimp: and start some movie or something.. anything that makes sound.. now watch that pulseaudio window..did anything change?
[19:34] <sns> I'll paypal the person who can help me get the right resolution on my hdtv that is used as primary monitor
[19:34] <jeffluo> how can I expand the custom panel?
[19:34] <XStylus> debCarlos: Line 65 has the command I used when I tried the second time.
[19:34] <deathchimp> slart you are a god, works great
[19:34] <Slart> deathchimp: it works now?
[19:35] <deathchimp> slart yea, no idea why
[19:35] <dr_Willis> sns,  if using the nvidia drivers, i normally tweak mine with the 'nvidia-settings' tool thats in the repositries
[19:35] <wild_oscar> I *thought* it would enable or disable network
[19:35] <jeffluo> ..
[19:35] <Slart> deathchimp: wow.. this wasn't supposed to fix anything.. but hey.. if it works.. great =)
[19:35] <wild_oscar> but it's a rather useless button
[19:35] <deathchimp> slart thanks man, no idea must have just kicked it.
[19:35] <wild_oscar> sns: what seems to be the problem?
[19:35] <sns> dr_Willis: tried that. can try it again
[19:35] <debCarlos> Weird... run $ sudo passwd and enter the new unix password (To root) then run $ su , enter that pass and try it again :)
[19:35] <XStylus> debCarlos: "su root" asks for a password I don't have (and never put in for root)
[19:35] <Slart> deathchimp: hehe.. perhaps installing those tools restarted pulseaudio.. well well
[19:36] <sns> wild_oscar: problem is that I can't get it to show any other resolutions than 640x480 and 800x600
[19:36] <hittingpilot> My flash player won't let youtube videos go full screen
[19:36] <Slart> XStylus: there is no root password in ubuntu
[19:36] <easylabs> i have a real problem any one can help¿?
[19:36] <dr_Willis> bbarton,  somthing is seriously weird if you are trying to run a 'linux' dns client with wine. You may want to tell the channel the original problem and what you are trying to do. (not me, i gotta help  the wife)
[19:36] <XStylus> Slart: So then I assume there's no way to "su" to root then?
[19:36] <wild_oscar> sns: what videocard do you have? have you tried changing it manually in xorg.conf?
[19:36] <dr_Willis> XStylus,  there is.. but no real need to.
[19:36] <Slart> XStylus: well.. you shouldn't really have to su to root.. but if you really really have to you can use sudo -i
[19:36] <td123> XStylus, to set a root password. Do "sudo passwd root"
[19:37] <sns> nvidia 7150
[19:37] <LSD|Ninja> XStylus: everything you need root for in general use can be handled with sudo on Ubuntu
[19:37] <rockenrola> XStylus: well in the terminal you could do "sudo bash" that gives you a root terminal
[19:37] <db92> aptitude wants to remove some packages it considers unnecessary, is this safe?
[19:37] <XStylus> That's about what I figured.
[19:37] <Slart> XStylus: but think twice before you do it.. ubuntu is designed to use sudo and such..
[19:37] <alraune> sns :as using no hdtv, i'm carefull : usually settings are stored /etc/X11/xorg.conf, to configure it takes (sudo terminal) dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver.xorg
[19:37] <Slart> db92: it usually is.. what packages does it want to remove?
[19:37] <td123> XStylus, your best bet is to do sudo bash if you want root terminal
[19:37] <harvey1> quick shell script problem, how do you define parameters, I tried MODE="-l" ls $MODE, but I get invalid options
[19:38] <debCarlos> XStylus, you have to give the root a pasword, you can do it by typing $ sudo passwd   then enter NEW root password.... then $ su  :)
[19:38] <db92> Slart, plenty of stuff, but im just worrying cos it looks as if its going to remove mpeg codecs or something :\
[19:38] <sns> alraune: I know that. Problem seems to be a bit more complex I'm sorry to say
[19:38] <db92> Slart, sec pasting
[19:38] <Slart> db92: did you remove any software recently?
[19:38] <db92> Slart, http://paste.ubuntu.com/28098/
[19:39] <db92> Slart, well i did remove kubuntu desktop few hours ago, but i still got that message before doing that :\
[19:39] <hittingpilot> My firefox won't display youtube videos full screen
[19:39] <Slart> db92: ouch.. that's a lot of software.. I'd be careful
[19:39] <debCarlos> XStylus, i'm going to eat, wait me for 5 minutes :)
[19:39] <wild_oscar> sns: do you have the command nvidia-settings ?
[19:39] <db92> Slart, aptitude just insists on removing it
[19:39] <XStylus> debCarlos: Well, apparently su root pwned sudo because it's compiling it now.
[19:39] <db92> Slart, i cant proceed without doing so :\
[19:40] <avis> has anyone had any experience with sbackup creating tar files that cannot be opened ?  it seems like the tar process it yields never ends
[19:40] <Slart> db92: if I were you I'd ask this question to one of the local guru's..
[19:40] <XStylus> debCarlos: Catch ya' when you get back. Thanks for all your help thus far.
[19:40] <db92> Slart, and that would be? :/
[19:40] <sns> wild_oscar: yes. But resolution makes the app unusable
[19:40] <harvey1> ls '$MODE' doesnt help either
[19:40] <alraune> sns : thought so, could you paste your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[19:41] <Cheery> holy cow! huge channel
[19:41] <harvey1> http://paste.arandomurl.com/487f92455cbcb is the script
[19:41] <alraune> sns: dialog
[19:41] <Slart> db92: well.. mostly they are the ones doing the admin stuff.. telling people to go to !ot channels, stop swearing, stop repeating etc =)
[19:41] <rbrunhuber> does the nvidia-glx driver have xrandr output detection?
[19:41] <db92> rofl... :|
[19:42] <sns> http://paste.ubuntu.com/28100
[19:42] <Slart> db92: but it's enough to send them that pastebin you sent me.. asking if those packages are vital to your system
[19:42] <Cheery> I am thinking to loan liblame from ubuntu to my debian system, I'd want to know how to create the db-package from sources
[19:42] <Pici> harvey1: mode='-l
[19:42] <db92> and where do i find them? :DDD
[19:43] <Pici> harvey1: mode='-l'    ls $mode   should work, but #bash is a better place to ask such questions
[19:43] <Slart> db92: I can't think of a reason for it to want to remove the fonts...
[19:43] <Slart> db92: ask pici.. anyone answering with long bash lines ought to know =)
[19:43] <harvey1> ok, thanks
[19:43] <Cheery> deb-package*
[19:44] <Cheery> $ sudo dpkg -b lame-3.96.1 liblame0.deb

[19:44] <johnny05> Hey guys. Setting up an apache server. It's all running fine, but for some reason apache doesn't have access to some directories. I've tried chmod 777 on everything and that works, but there has to be a better way. I think it has something to do with the user that is creating the directories not belonging to the group that the webserver belongs to, but i'm not sure.
[19:45] <Slart> Pici: would you mind taking a look at db92's question.. aptitude wants to remove a long lins of stuff.. are those packages vital to an ubuntu system or is it ok to remove them? http://paste.ubuntu.com/28098/
[19:45] <sns> brb
[19:45] <debCarlos> i'm back
[19:46] <Pici> Slart: They look okay to me, but some things he may not want to remove, like mysql stuff, and ccsm... and maybe som of the kde stuff.
[19:46] <Intrepid> I recently messed up my install of compiz, somehow. Is there a way to reinstall everything it needs back to an original installation?
[19:46] <db92> Pici, i never use mysql :DDD
[19:46] <XStylus> debCarlos: Welcome back.
[19:46] <robdeman> how can I install QT 4.4 on my Ubuntu box? anybody?
[19:47] <Cheery> lol, normal deb-package worked just well
[19:47] <db92> Pici, and i turned off compiz for the sake of simplicity
[19:47] <db92> Pici, been days since i last used it
[19:47] <Slart> Pici: I guess he'll have to reinstall them when aptitude is done..
[19:47] <Cheery> what are the differences with ubuntu and debian really? they seem like a same system, ubuntu just has more updated repositories
[19:47] <XStylus> debCarlos: su root got the package installed. Then went back to gparted and did ./configure. Now it's saying it needs libparted 1.7.1
[19:47] <Pici> db92: then it looks okay to me.
[19:47] <bullgard4> Is it customary to block port 113 or leave it open?
[19:47] <Slart> db92: then perhaps aptitude is kind of smart after all =)
[19:47] <Slart> Pici: thanks
[19:47] <db92> :PP
[19:48] <johnny05> Any ideas guys. How can i check what groups are available and what users are in what groups?
[19:48] <sheep> bullgard4: if it's casuing problems with irc and you aren't running an ident daemon, try blocking it
[19:48] <Slart> johnny05: there is a "groups" command to list the groups
[19:48] <Slart> johnny05: there might be some switches for it.. check the man pages.. see if they mention any other commands
[19:48] <debCarlos> XStylues: Yeah, it says that to me too. But for libparted you need readline :S
[19:49] <debCarlos> *Xstylus
[19:49] <bullgard4> sheep: I will consider your advise.
[19:49] <debCarlos> *XStylus
[19:50] <DigitalNinja> what package do I install to get mod_rewrite?
[19:50] <debCarlos> XStylus, readline : (http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/readline/readline-5.2.tar.gz) and parted: (http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/parted/parted-1.8.8.tar.gz) you have to do the same thing you did with e2fsprogs-libraries with them :)
[19:50] <db92> is xfce worth a try?
[19:50] <rrowell> how can i find the md5 for the ubuntu releases?  My disk does not work when burnt and when I tell it to self-scan it reports 3 errors, but since there is no md5sum listed on the download page (http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloading?release=kubuntu-kde4&arch=i386&mirror=http%3A%2F%2Flug.mtu.edu%2Fubuntu-releases%2F&debug=&download-button=&flavor=kubuntu) I have no idea if it is my ISO or a problem with the burn process...
[19:50] <XStylus> debCarlos: Guess I better get started then
[19:50] <zaapiel> !
[19:50] <Slart> db92: xfce is nice if you're looking for a light, clean desktop
[19:50] <zaapiel> ubottu: help
[19:50] <Slart> db92: I use it for my mini itx server
[19:51] <db92> Slart, for usual desktop pc what do you recommend?
[19:51] <debCarlos> XStylus, then it should compile right. Remember, you have to compile readline before parted ..
[19:51] <db92> Slart, its not like im not satisfied with gnome, i just wanna see a different experience for a sec:P
[19:51] <zaapiel> !search google earth
[19:51] <bullgard4> sheep: I could install the DEB program package pidentd. Will this cause a noticable load to my 1.8 GHz Ubuntu laptop?

[19:51] <j0hn> hello, can anyone help me with samba and ubuntu?
[19:51] <zaapiel> ty Pici
[19:52] <sysop1972_> Still in need of Samba help...
[19:52] <Pici> zaapiel: yeo
[19:52] <johnny05> How can i tell what group user/group apache is running as?
[19:52] <sheep> bullgard4: I don't think it would use very much memory or cpu, although I use oidentd not pidentd
[19:52] <Xamusk> is there any way to work around the openvpn blacklists?
[19:52] <Pici> zaapiel: Yep, except I can't spell today.
[19:52] <j0hn> i have all configurated but i want to see the other computers from my ubuntu
[19:52] <Pici> Xamusk: Why would you want to do that?
[19:52] <rrowell> anyone know where to find MD5 sums for official Kubuntu releases?
[19:52] <zaapiel> !Medibuntu
[19:52] <bullgard4> sheep: ok.
[19:52] <herrmess> How do I disable oidentd from loading on startup?
[19:52] <sns> b
[19:52] <rrowell> !md5sum
[19:53] <Xamusk> Pici, because I have to connect to an unpatched server whose admin refuses to patch because it would be too much trouble to regenerate all certs
[19:53] <Slart> db92: I use gnome myself and I'm happy with it.. I could use xfce for a laptop or something where I don't need all the bling bling
[19:53] <johnny05> nvm, i found out my apache is running as www-data, but the directories are all created as my username. so how can i add things that my account creates to the www-data group so that apache has access?
[19:53] <sns> paypal competition is over. mate over at kubuntu won. thanks for participating
[19:53] <j0hn> can anyone tell me how to see windows computers from ubuntu with samba working?
[19:53] <ghostlines> wazaa
[19:53] <rrowell> yeah, that tells you how to md5 your ISO but it doesn't tell you where the Ubuntu folk post what the magical numbers should be!
[19:53] <Xamusk> Pici, so I can't access it because of the blacklist in my client, not because of the server itself
[19:53] <Slart> db92: but they are basically the same..it's windows, buttons and if you take off your glasses it all looks the same anyway
[19:53] <amortvigil> does anyone have an 32 bit libgmodule-1.2.so.0  ? can anyone send it to mee?
[19:53] <db92> Slart, fluxbox?
[19:54] <ghostlines> freenx vs vnc which do you prefer?
[19:54] <johnny05> anyone
[19:54] <zaapiel> ubuntu owns
[19:54] <Slart> db92: haven't tried fluxbox in a couple of years.. but it's also very light weight.. it might be easier to get help for gnome though
[19:54] <j0hn> can anyone tell me how to see windows computers from ubuntu with samba working?
[19:54] <bleaked> If i wanted to update a friend's networkless pc, specifically with multimedia, mp3, dvd, kernel, video, and add a few multiverse apps, what would be the most elegant way to go about this?  (kubuntu 8.04 install, currently has NO updates.  I can potentially make archive dvds and have a large external hd)
[19:54] <rrowell> OK, I lied, it does list the hashes page, but the hashes page doesn't have a hash for the kde4 release of kubuntu :-(
[19:54] <sysop1972_> I created a linux user without a shell to place a few shared folders in and then created all my linux/samba users that match my windows worksations.  I can access the folders but cannot write to them.  Can someone help me out?\
[19:55] <db92> Slart, any clue how i can create a dynamic desktop trash icon? :P

I was trying to do this by having aMSN running and having a custom command executed once a specific person logged in. I installed msmtp and mailx and i am able to send emails with the following command "echo "subject: testing" | msmtp<EMAIL_ADDRESS>The problem is that it only sends a blank email, with a subject. I
[20:10] <umanerrr> need to be able to define the body of the message because i cannot receive blank messages on my phone. Could anybody please help me out. i read the msmtp manual and was not able to find how to define the message. If someone knows how to do it with msmtp or with another app that can send emails with a single command on the command line that would be great, thanks in advance. (ps: to receive the messages on my phone i set the recipient to
[20:10] <umanerrr><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:11] <Erick|Laptop> o.o
[20:11] <debCarlos> XStylus: After you compile those, you need to install libparted-dev ($ apt-get install libparted1.7-dev) and compile gtkmm (http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtkmm/2.12/gtkmm-2.12.7.tar.bz2)  :)
[20:11] <simotempler> hi there - gparted doesnt seem to have an option for ntfs is there any other program i might use
[20:12] <W8TAH> how would i get a list of all installed packages on a ubuntu server?
[20:12] <Slart> simotempler: I think gparted can do ntfs.. you might have to install ntfs-3g first though
[20:12] <Slart> W8TAH: dpkg -l
[20:12] <simotempler> Cheers Slart
[20:12] <Slart> W8TAH: or dpkg -L  .. I forge
[20:12] <W8TAH> ok
[20:13] <loquitus_of_borg> Hey people. I have a question. Why is it that if I ssh (with X11 forwarding) to a remote host and run firefox THERE, it runs locally?
[20:13] <Xazzza3> So anyone that could point me in a direction on how to do that :P?
[20:13] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: you have to do ssh -X yourhost yourcommandline if you want it to be run on your computer
[20:13] <debCarlos> W8TAH: You should do dpkg -l | more  so you can see every package :)
[20:13] <W8TAH> cool
[20:13] <W8TAH> thanks
[20:13] <Erick|Laptop> when i try to start compiz-fusion i get the error "Checking for Xgl: not present. No whitelisted driver found aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity" please if anyone can help
[20:14] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: of course this depends on what you mean by locally ...
[20:14] <dr_Willis> loquitus_of_borg,  you mean you 'see' the firefox window locally. :) thats how x forwarding works.

[20:16] <ghostlines> but my normal user does
[20:16] <loquitus_of_borg> dr_Willis: negative
[20:16] <Slart> ghostlines: ubuntu isn't meant to be run as root.. so it isn't setup for the root user
[20:17] <dr_Willis> ghostlines,  it also depends on how you 'get' to be the root user.

[20:19] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: yes... perhaps it's some kind of setting somewhere..

[20:20] <Slart> simotempler: on gparted, the menu gparted, click on show features.. is ntfs listed there?

[20:21] <bonez45> Slart: reason I ask... I install ubuntu on my son's PC at home this morning.. ubuntu installed without a hitch, but after I ran apt-get install xserver-xgl .. I got xsessions errors......
[20:21] <simotempler> Slart sorry
[20:21] <Slart> simotempler: are you sure you've got ntfs-3g installed?
[20:22] <bonez45> Slart: if my system shows that compiz-fusion is installed and newest version, what's required to enable it.. to have it running?
[20:22] <simotempler> yes slart
[20:22] <Slart> bonez45: I run compizfusion.. and I don't use xgl
[20:22] <shah>  hi all, i hav mounted windows partition using  mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda5 /mnt/windows, i need to automount this partition at bootup time, so i hav added  mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda5 /mnt/windows to /etc/fstab but couldnt automount it!! any solution??
[20:22] <debCarlos> Anyone knows what happened to XStylus ?
[20:22] <loquitus_of_borg> Slart: nope... that's why I am asking here.
[20:22] <XStylus> I'm here
[20:22] <debCarlos> ok
[20:22] <dr_Willis> shah,  put a PROPER entry in fstab. :) its not a list of moutn commands.. the syntax is different.
[20:22] <XStylus> Sorry, just NOW looked back to the chat window. ^^;;;
[20:22] <debCarlos> XStylus, i didn't see you :), how is it going ?
[20:22] <Slart> simotempler: hmm.. hang on.. let me check something
[20:23] <simotempler> Slart: is FAT16 or FAT32 a bad idea for a drive this large
[20:23] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: very strange
[20:23] <dr_Willis> shah /dev/XXX  /media/winstorage ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 1
[20:23] <Slart> simotempler: how large is it?
[20:23] <bonez45> Slart: ok......once installed, should compiz-fusion just run, or do I have to configure it before it will run?
[20:23] <simotempler> 320GB
[20:23] <linxeh> simotempler: fat32 is fine
[20:23] <Slart> bonez45: you probably need 3d accelerated graphics drivers of some kind..
[20:23] <Slart> simotempler: fat32 should be ok.. it's not perfect but it's ok
[20:23] <XStylus> Bumpy. Installed readline and parted, then attempted to make gparted again, no joy.
[20:24] <Slart> simotempler: fat16 is a very very bad idea
[20:24] <simotempler> is it as good as or better than NTFS for bot windows and linux
[20:24] <linxeh> simotempler: NTFS is far better for Windows use
[20:24] <XStylus> debCarlos: Trying one more trick
[20:24] <Slart> simotempler: ah.. figured it out.. you need ntfsprogs installed too
[20:24] <linxeh> simotempler: and with NTFS3G you should be ok on linux
[20:24] <simotempler> hmmm how can i format it to that so
[20:24] <Slart> !info ntfsprogs
[20:25] <XStylus> debCarlos: And it too failed. Still says "requires libparted >= 1.7.1"
[20:25] <debCarlos> XStylus: I said you, you have to install libparted-dev with $ aptitude install libparted1.7-dev
[20:25] <XStylus> And I know for certain its installed.
[20:25] <simotempler> Slart checking now
[20:25] <Slart> simotempler: so, sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs, restart gparted and it should be able to do ntfs just fine
[20:25] <shah> dr_Willis, i just need to replace XXX with sda5, thats it or any more changes?
[20:25] <dr_Willis> shah,  yes.. and no idea. :) thats a paste from my fstab. so it works for me. for my single user ssytem
[20:26] <bonez45> Slart: I have Via chrome 9 s3  video... which is on the motherboard.. I am guessing for compiz-fusion to work, I'll need a better add-in video card....
[20:26] <debCarlos> XStylus, and then.... compile gtkmm: (http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtkmm/2.12/gtkmm-2.12.7.tar.bz2)
[20:26] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: perhaps firefox does some kind of weird thing on startup.. I can't run one 32 bit firefox and one 64 bit firefox at the same time for example.. perhaps firefox is just the weird exeption here
[20:26] <XStylus> Soooooooo many steps... phew.
[20:27] <simotempler> Slart - cheers bud works a treat now
[20:27] <dr_Willis> firefox is weird in so many ways...
[20:27] <debCarlos> XStylus, yep... and i'm doing them too :)
[20:27] <_Ben> hi guys! anyone know where i can get wmadec?
[20:27] <Slart> bonez45: nah.. if you have 3d acceleration it should be fine.. perhaps not fast but it will run.. perhaps you'll get better answers in #compiz-fusion, those guys are supposed to be the experts after all
[20:27] <Slart> simotempler: you're welcome
[20:28] <bonez45> Slart: I'll check there
[20:28] <Slart> !w32codecs | _Ben, here if anywhere:
[20:28] <simotempler> Slart one more question should i select create as primary partion or extended
[20:28] <Slart> simotempler: primary unless you have more than 4 partitions on the drive
[20:28] <_Ben> cheers slart :)
[20:29] <loquitus_of_borg> slart: could be
[20:29] <simotempler> this drive is empty and on the 2nd IDE slot on my machine
[20:29] <simotempler> that ok
[20:29] <simotempler> for primary
[20:29] <Slart> simotempler: sure, go with primary
[20:30] <linuxguymarshall> $C++
[20:30] <simotempler> thanks again
[20:31] <simotempler> just fixed my grub too a ubuntu update just reset the dam thing somehow
[20:31] <Ab3L> good night
[20:31] <nirohirokato> what file does synaptic log to?
[20:31] <roe___> .j #debian
[20:31] <roe___> doh
[20:31] <Slart> nirohirokato: check in /var/log/  .. it's probably in there
[20:32] <herrmess> Ok, moved from Transmission to Deluge... more flexible and powerful, it is.
[20:33] <XStylus> debCarlos: One more small hiccup
[20:33] <nirohirokato>  Slart ty
[20:33] <Slart> nirohirokato: you're welcome
[20:33] <XStylus> debCarlos: "configure: error: Package requirements (glibmm-2.4 >= 2.14.1 atk >= 1.9.0) were not met"
[20:33] <jeyk1982> i have the following problem "Error: Could not open command file '/var/lib/nagios2/rw/nagios.cmd' for update!"
[20:34] <debCarlos> XStylus,  Wich package gives you that error ?
[20:34] <Baby_Shambl3s> how can i run firefox in safemode, what is the command?
[20:34] <XStylus> The one you just told me to install.

[20:35] <umanerrr> Hi there everyone. I was trying to create away to be notified on my cellphone when someone from my msn messenger contact list signed on. I was trying to do this by having aMSN running and having a custom command executed once a specific person logged in. I installed msmtp and mailx and i am able to send emails with the following command "echo "subject: testing" | msmtp<EMAIL_ADDRESS>The problem is that it only sends a blank email, with a subject. I
[20:35] <umanerrr> need to be able to define the body of the message because i cannot receive blank messages on my phone. Could anybody please help me out. i read the msmtp manual and was not able to find how to define the message. If someone knows how to do it with msmtp or with another app that can send emails with a single command on the command line that would be great, thanks in advance. (ps: to receive the messages on my phone i set the recipient to
[20:35] <umanerrr><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:35] <debCarlos> XStylus, ok, then download and install glibmm: (http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glibmm/2.16/glibmm-2.16.4.tar.bz2) man, this is getting insane :)...
[20:36] <XStylus> debCarlos: You're telling me. [chuckle]
[20:36] <d1sdain> I have a wierd problem... I tried to edit a video once in kino.... now that I did it... every video I try to play in "movie Player" is in slow motion and is without sound. But if i spend the time to convert it into kino... it plays normal.. I dont want to convert into kino everytime.. I have tried remove and reinstalling Kino and FFmpeg
[20:36] <debCarlos> XStylus, :)
[20:36] <Baby_Shambl3s> is it possible to run firefox3 in safemode?
[20:37] <Slart> Baby_Shambl3s: if you start it from a terminal I think so, yes
[20:37] <alraune> uauaaa, I really don't like people bringing less then a half our time, when want to be solved with their probs.. nerv !
[20:37] <Slart> Baby_Shambl3s: try firefox --help
[20:37] <loquitus_of_borg> slart:  firefox.exe -no-remote
[20:37] <_stripperella_> hallo
[20:37] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Still around, just documenting all these steps as I go. Gotta deploy this on a crapload of servers once this is all said and done. What fun.
[20:37] <Baby_Shambl3s> Slart: hmmm why didnt i think of looking at the man pages thnx
[20:37] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: ahh.. so it was firefox being weird.. good catch
[20:37] <loquitus_of_borg> slart: if you are user foobar locally and already running firefox and then connect remotely to ssh with user foobar and try to run firefox, you'll get this behaviour... gay
[20:37] <alraune> is there an offtopic channel ?
[20:38] <Slart> !ot
[20:38] <alraune> thx, uaaah
[20:38] <_stripperella_> oh reden ja alle englisch lol
[20:38] <_stripperella_> hello
[20:38] <loquitus_of_borg> slart: I don't know yet if I like firefox "talking" through the tunnel back to my local mahcine.
[20:38] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: I wonder who thought of this and figured.. yea.. let's do it like this..
[20:38] <zaapiel> sup
[20:38] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: but wait.. I'm the same user on both machines.. I should get that too..
[20:38] <Baby_Shambl3s> Slart: yeah thnx again found it in no time it was in the help section :)
[20:39] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, sounds like lot of fun xD
[20:39] <Slart> Baby_Shambl3s: you're welcome
[20:39] <loquitus_of_borg> slart: provided you are running firefox locally already
[20:39] <Slart> loquitus_of_borg: ahh.. that might have been it
[20:39] <loquitus_of_borg> the point I guess is to keep certain "stupid" people from running firefox twice.  I suggested going with linux drones rather than WinBoxes. This is the result.  I hope you get it to work...
[20:41] <XStylus-LX> No foolin'.
[20:41] <Jack_Sparrow> XStylus-LX Please watch the language.
[20:41] <XStylus-LX> It'd be great to see if it works on a command line partitioner just to see if the thing works.
[20:42] <intel_> ich kann keiner engisch schreiben leider
[20:43] <Jack_Sparrow> !de
[20:43] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, yes, but i don't know how to find out which device is RAID in /dev  :)
[20:43] <intel_> ok.
[20:44] <icqnumber> intel_, u cannot write in german too
[20:44] <jeeves__> what's the best program to compress a bunch of JPEGs into a timelapse video?
[20:44] <minhaaj> hi i can't install my icons in a theme. everything works fine but icons don't work
[20:45] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Ready for more fun?
[20:45] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, yes
[20:45] <zaapiel> y0
[20:45] <zaapiel> anyone know how to delete ubuntu
[20:45] <XStylus-LX> !pastebin
[20:45] <zaapiel> the gnome part
[20:45] <yabba> lol
[20:46] <zaapiel> i wanna use kubuntu but got all this gnome stuff
[20:46] <Jack_Sparrow> !purekde
[20:46] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28110/
[20:46] <os2mac> zaapiel: so use both.
[20:46] <zaapiel> ty Jack_Sparrow
[20:46] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[20:46] <djhash> which is less resource intensive? KDE or Gnome?
[20:47] <XStylus-LX> devCarlos: I'm also pretty confident that the RAID is /dev/i2o/hda
[20:47] <qwer_> thats easy answer ;)
[20:47] <qwer_> dj , http;//slitaz.org
[20:48] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, this is getting bizarre... now, try cfdisk /dev/i2o/hda then   maybe you're right :)
[20:48] <Jack_Sparrow> qwer_ Were you trying to post a link to something
[20:48] <djhash> qwer_: that does not answer my question... thank you though, try again later.
[20:49] <XStylus-LX> "FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive"
[20:49] <Jack_Sparrow> djhash Personally I feel gnome is lighter than kde
[20:49] <qwer_> yup , it was for djhash (2 version of distro that uses OpenBox and JWM) to show him how lite it was and accutlly apps that affects all  and there isnt a simple annswer for his question
[20:49] <qwer_> ;)
[20:50] <qwer_> anyway that was 25 mb and really think there is no reason why i shouldnt post it
[20:50] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, seems like it's not in /dev/i2o  :)
[20:50] <ncfi1013> where can i find tutorials to help me create a directory structure on a dvd that i would like to burn in k3b that is not a video/data dvd
[20:50] <umanerrr> Hi there everyone. I was trying to create away to be notified on my cellphone when someone from my msn messenger contact list signed on.

[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> qwer_ http;//slitaz.org          is not a valid link.. is what I was getting at
[20:50] <umanerrr> need to be able to define the body of the message because i cannot receive blank messages on my phone. Could anybody please help me out. i read the msmtp manual and was not able to find how to define the message. If someone knows how to do it with msmtp or with another app that can send emails with a single command on the command line that would be great, thanks in advance. (ps: to receive the messages on my phone i set the recipient to
[20:51] <umanerrr><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:51] <Slart> ncfi1013: what do you want to create?
[20:51] <qwer_> LOL! are you sure , wait Jack
[20:51] <Slart> ncfi1013: just regular files and folders?
[20:51] <_Ben> ncfi1013 google :) lol
[20:51] <ncfi1013> a dvd that is much like the dvds you buy in a store
[20:51] <qwer_> jack_Sparrow: try this one http://slitaz.org/en/ *i just check it in firefox*
[20:51] <Slart> ncfi1013: video dvd?
[20:51] <XStylus-LX> debCarlos: Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I downloaded a liveCD of the newest version of gparted. I'm going to reboot my linux box and try it to see if this is even a reasonable endeavor.
[20:52] <Jack_Sparrow> qwer_ I knew how to fix it.. just pointing out that http; is not valid
[20:52] <debCarlos> XStylus-LX, I think that's easier! :)
[20:52] <XStylus> debCarlos: Yes, much. [chuckle]
[20:52] <ncfi1013> i tried that already. it puts one 700mb file on a 4 g disc with 3 g left
[20:52] <XStylus> Rebooting it now.
[20:53] <debCarlos> XStylus, ok, i hope it works :)
[20:53] <jadams> I just got a machine with quite a beefy ATI video card in it, and I *still* run into what I guess is the ATI equivalent of the nvidia black windows bug
[20:53] <Baby_Shambl3s> omg forgot how to install stuff on wine :'(, how do i install browsers in wine?
[20:53] <Slart> ncfi1013: dvd's come in many forms and variants.. some contain data (dvd's with computer games on them).. some contain video (like spiderman 2 etc), some have audio (dvd audio).. what kind do you want to create
[20:53] <zod21> XStylus: what are you putting into your machine
[20:53] <qwer_> oh , lol , now i know what you meant by posting that link as i read ";" as ":" , so i was thinking (*What the hell! , maybe the server didn't move him to index.php or something" , but thanks anyway for clearning it ;)
[20:53] <beef> jadams, tried envgy ?
[20:53] <zod21> im guessing ubuntu
[20:53] <beef> *envy
[20:53] <jadams> beef: for what?  Just a new ati driver?
[20:53] <XStylus> Trying to get an Adaptec 2400A RAID card to work.
[20:53] <db92> how do you make a trash can on the desktop? >>
[20:53] <zod21> raid ahh
[20:53] <jadams> I'm using the hardy ati driver provided by restricted drivers manager
[20:53] <XStylus> Sees the card, sees the drive, sees the size, but Gparted throws a hissy fit.
[20:53] <djhash> jadams: can you tell what the video card is?
[20:53] <ncfi1013> i guess i want to create a regular dvd from an avi file
[20:53] <beef> jadams, yeah
[20:53] <Slart> db92: gconf-editor, apps, nautilus, desktop
[20:54] <XStylus> So i'm trying to install a newer version of gparted, and that's an even BIGGER hissy fit.
[20:54] <Slart> ncfi1013: try devede
[20:54] <beef> jadams, so did i but i had problems, tried using envy and had no more problems
[20:54] <_Ben> Baby_shambl3s fine the installer exe and run with wine. the rest should take care of itse;f
[20:54] <Slart> !info devede | ncfi1013
[20:54] <Marfi> question, is there an easy way to upgrade from 6.10 to 8.04, rather than going through each one?
[20:54] <zod21> gparted isnt what you wanna use if you are trying to use that drive as a part of the install, just use gparted to make the drives unpartitioined and then use the standard install to partition it
[20:54] <zod21> if that makes sense
[20:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Marfi No
[20:55] <XStylus> zod21: I'll take even nonsensical suggestions at this point.
[20:55] <Marfi> Jack_Sparrow, <3 ty ty
[20:55] <Slart> ncfi1013: it's very easy to work with.. just select which avi's you want to use.. click Go! and it creates (and burns if you want it to) the dvd
[20:55] <db92> Slart, kk ty worked
[20:55] <Slart> db92: you're welcome
[20:55] <Baby_Shambl3s> _Ben: the problem is that Mozilla detects a linux os and stops me from getting the win version, so how can i sort this out?
[20:55] <nirohirokato> quick easy question, what is the latest release of Ubuntu which still supports the PPC architecture?
[20:55] <Slart> !ppc
[20:55] <db92> Slart, cos i didnt actually know there was a way to show trash on the desktop id made a launcher with "xdg-open trash:/" but it didnt change the image each time something went in :P
[20:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !ppc
[20:55] <zod21> hahaha ok well XStylus join #ubuntu101 and ill tell ya what i mean
[20:55] <jadams> beef: k, thanks
[20:55] <frostburn> Baby_Shambl3s, google user agent switcher extension for firefox
[20:55] <zod21> its too hard in here
[20:56] <zod21> too much chatter lol
[20:56] <Slart> db92: ahh... well the gconf-trick  is far easier =)
[20:56] <zod21> any one else can join also
[20:56] <nirohirokato> Slart, thank you very much :D
[20:56] <db92> Slart, yes obviously :P
[20:56] <debCarlos> XStylus, anyway, i find out some things: 1. glib can be installed with apt ($ apt-get install libglib2.0-dev) 2. The other have to be compiled :S
[20:56] <Slart> nirohirokato: you're welcome
[20:56] <db92> how can i check my hard drives free space?
[20:56] <Slart> db92: df -h
[20:56] <_Ben> baby_shambl3s if you install internet explorer or opera in wine you might be able to  download the windows version of mozilla through that. otherwise install windoze in a vm
[20:56] <jadams> db92, du -h
[20:56] <db92> or to be more precise, my partitions :P
[20:57] <jadams> err
[20:57] <jadams> df -h
[20:57] <Baby_Shambl3s> _Ben, frostburn: yah thxn for the help
[20:57] <vlt> Hello. How can I make one machine's block device available on another one? I tried nbd-server but it seems as if it wants a real file to share to the nbd-clients ... Any idea?
[20:57] <XStylus> debCarlos: I... ...think it's working...!
[20:57] <debCarlos> XStylus, YES!!! :D
[20:58] <_ruben> vlt: i'd use the iscsi protocol (ietd on server and open-isci on client)
[20:58] <vlt> _ruben: Thanks, I'll try ...
[20:58] <LetsGo67> What must I do to prevent laptop from overheating?
[20:58] <XStylus> At least, it partitioned it and formatted it without spitting it out. This version of gparted doesn't see it as /dev/i2o/hda, but rather as /dev/sdb. Dunno if that's because the liveCD loaded the RAID card differently or what.
[20:59] <frostburn> LetsGo67, get a cooling pad, or better laptop
[20:59] <XStylus> Let's reboot and see if it sticks.
[20:59] <debCarlos> XStylus, who knows, but if it worked.... great :D !!!
[20:59] <jeeves__> Jack_Sparrow, hey man, how's it going?
[20:59] <Slart> LetsGo67: make sure you use the powersaving stuff
[20:59] <XStylus> debCarlos: Well now ubuntu needs to mount it and play happily with it. We'll see.
[20:59] <Slart> LetsGo67: so the cpu lowers the frequency when you don't need the power
[20:59] <alraune> LetsGo67  clean the fan(s)
[20:59] <LetsGo67> frostburn and Slart: no, I'm just worring about my laptop exploding
[21:00] <Jack_Sparrow> jeeves__ FIne.. thanks
[21:00] <Slart> LetsGo67: it will crash before it explodes
[21:00] <LetsGo67> frostburn, slart, alraune: laptops, iPods, cell phones explode all the time.
[21:00] <debCarlos> XStylus, yup
[21:00] <frostburn> LetsGo67, as long as it's not the battery overheating, the hard drives/cpu can be up to 50c
[21:00] <jeeves__> Jack_Sparrow, can you reccomend a good time lapse video encoder to make AVI files from JPEGs?
[21:00] <_Ben> LetsGo67- look for dust in the heatsink and remove any if you fine it. Possibly replace thermal compund on cpu and make sure you never lay it on your lap or on a bed, sofa ect
[21:00] <alraune> <LetsGo67  !ot
[21:00] <Slart> LetsGo67: "all the time" is taking it a bit far, isn't it
[21:00] <LetsGo67> frostburn, slart, alraune, _Ben, if it is off?
[21:01] <Jack_Sparrow> jeeves__ Not really, but you can check some of the tools at getdeb.net
[21:01] <jeeves__> Jack_Sparrow, ahhhh, remember the traffic cam project I was working on?  well, I have ~30Gb of pics and now I need to compress them
[21:02] <rrowell> BTW: If anyone cares I re-burnt the Kubuntu CD with a much lower write speed and now it seems to work fine, so moral is try lower right speed if you are having problems with "corrupted files" on a verified good CD
[21:02] <Slart> jeeves__: imagemagick is good at all things imageish
[21:02] <_Ben> LetsGo67-is your laptop overheating when its switched off ??
[21:02] <rrowell> err s/right/write
[21:02] <Jack_Sparrow> jeeves__ See what they have over there.  something might work for you
[21:02] <LetsGo67> _Ben, sorry, not overheating.  I'm worried about it exploding if I leave it in the car.
[21:03] <jeeves__> Slart, actully, I have the pics, I just need to compress them.  I'd like to find a way of running shell script that will download the lastest picture, and encode it onto the end of the video each time.
[21:03] <Slart> jeeves__: I'm not entirely sure but imagemagick might be able to do that too.. let me check
[21:03] <jeeves__> Slart, it needs to be able to make a AVI file
[21:04] <Baby_Shambl3s>  C:\\Program\ why is there two backward slashes when wine is supposed to emulate windows config?
[21:04] <Slart> jeeves__: of course, you'll have to write the script yourself
[21:04] <Slart> Baby_Shambl3s: because the \ isn't a folder divider in linux.. it's the escape character
[21:04] <jeeves__> Slart, yea, I know.  The end goal is for the script to start at midnight, and download a pic every 10 minutes.  Then once it has the newest picture, to add it to the end of the time lapse video and build a new video every day
[21:05] <LetsGo67> How can I stop my laptop from exploding?
[21:05] <Slart> Baby_Shambl3s: to write a \ on a command line in linux you have to write two \... so it's \\
[21:05] <Baby_Shambl3s> Slart: oh k didnt know
[21:06] <Slart> Baby_Shambl3s: and wine isn't an emulator.. =)
[21:06] <rrowell> LetsGo67, You must immerse it in water immediately
[21:06] <Baby_Shambl3s> Slart: yeha i know just read what it is
[21:07] <Jack_Sparrow> LetsGo67 That isnt really a ubuntu support question.. but remove the battery and you will be fine
[21:07] <jeeves__> Slart, did you find anything?
[21:07] <debCarlos> XStylus, You know, i tried to compile glibmm, and it gets to bizarre... it ask me for install a glib >= glib2.16 ... and for compile it i hav to uninstall previous version, but if i do that, then GNOME gets damaged :S
[21:07] <Slart> jeeves__: still looking..
[21:07] <jeeves__> Slart, k, thanks
[21:08] <ozzloy> http://xrl.us/kpz48 can someone help me with this?  firefox thinks everything is spelled incorrectly
[21:08] <ozzloy> ??
[21:08] <ncfi1013> how do i create that "straight line" symbol for the command line?
[21:08] <_Ben> ozzloy- well try speelcheckre
[21:08] <XStylus> debCarlos: Perhaps it's best to just give up on the endeavor and stick with working with the LiveCD.
[21:09] <debCarlos> XStylus, yes, or install a precompiled package :)
[21:09] <Jack_Sparrow> ncfi1013 bang is above your enter keey with shift
[21:09] <Slart> jeeves__: it seems imagemagick can't create movies.. but mencoder can.. here's a page discussing this..http://www.gfd.geophys.ethz.ch/~pjt/makingMovies.html
[21:09] <ozzloy> _Ben: i don't know what that means.  could you explain a little more?
[21:09] <jeeves__> Slart, thanks.  I'll hop over to the #mencoder channel.
[21:10] <Slart> jeeves__: or wait.. perhaps it can do it after all.. well.. check out that page.. it's in there
[21:10] <XStylus> debCarlos: My thoughts are that it's choking on the i2o driver. In the LiveCD it didn't recognize it as an i2o RAID, and a few forums I'm reading seem to indicate that gparted frequently chokes on i2o RAIDs.
[21:10] <ErikWestrup> Anyone here using rTWi webinterface with rTorrent?
[21:10] <debCarlos> XStylus, ...
[21:10] <jeeves__> Slart, np.  I just asked over there.  I'd like to make sure that the script runs at a VERY LOW prio in the background
[21:10] <XStylus> debCarlos: Yes...?
[21:10] <Slart> jeeves__: run it with "nice".. or use nice in the script
[21:11] <Slart> jeeves__: it seems this rather simple lines is all that's needed.. convert -delay 6 -quality 95 test*ppm movie.mpg
[21:11] <heliquebec> hey folks, anyone faced that issue before? got an ibm thinkpad t22, when trying to install ubuntu (lastest version) the computer stall at installing system detecting file systems 15% after completing all 7 step.
[21:11] <Slart> jeeves__: convert is one of the tools included in imagemagick
[21:11] <debCarlos> XStylus, i forgot wich packages we installed... and now i have to uninstall them, i think i like the GPARTED from repos ..
[21:11] <rrowell> heliquebec, Did you try the "verify CD" option from the boot menu?
[21:11] <jeeves__> Slart, can you mash up a command line for me to try (in the directory where the JPEGs are)
[21:12] <Slart> jeeves__: sure.. what are the jpegs called?
[21:12] <Chiko_Simpatico> hola
[21:12] <Chiko_Simpatico> a todos
[21:12] <heliquebec> rrowell I did, and I even downloaded twice and burned twice just to be sure.
[21:12] <debCarlos> XStylus, well, i remember that parted was one of them and e2fsprogs too.... :)
[21:12] <jeeves__> Slart, I have a script that renames them with the date, time, and sequance #
[21:12] <XStylus> debCarlos: I may have a list
[21:12] <ethana2> where's ubuntu's multimedia key manager?
[21:13] <unknowing> hey, does anyone know if i have ubuntu duel installed with windows vista if i can get my files from windows vista and open them here on linux?
[21:13] <ethana2> unknowing: yes.
[21:13] <ethana2> but not the other way around
[21:13] <jeeves__> Slart, sorry, make that....  location_-_date_-_hour_-_minute_-_second.jog
[21:13] <unknowing> ethana2: how?
[21:13] <ethana2> windows has terrible fs support
[21:13] <jeeves__> Slart, sorry, make that....  location_-_date_-_hour_-_minute_-_second.jpg
[21:13] <ethana2> unknowing: Just Works
[21:13] <debCarlos> XStylus, can you give it to me? I have uninstalled some of them, but i don't remember all :(
[21:13] <ethana2> jsut make sure you shut down windows cleanly every time
[21:13] <Slart> jeeves__: try this    convert -delay *.jpg testmovie.mpg
[21:13] <_Ben> ozzloy-lolies
[21:14] <jeeves__> Slart, how about mencoder?
[21:14] <unknowing> ethana2: lol so your not going to help me by telling me how? just going to say, just works?
[21:14] <ethana2> it's very, very simple
[21:14] <ethana2> places -> windows
[21:14] <Slart> jeeves__: it might not be needed..
[21:14] <ethana2> basically
[21:14] <debCarlos> XStylus, did we installed gettext ?
[21:14] <Slart> jeeves__: but I think it would be almost the same..
[21:14] <ncfi1013>  do i find devede in the adept package manager
[21:14] <Slart> !info devede
[21:14] <jeeves__> Slart, ok, so what's the full command line I need?
[21:15] <Slart> ncfi1013: yes.. it's in multiverse.. see !repos
[21:15] <unknowing> ethana2: my places doesnt show windows
[21:15] <XStylus> debCarlos: No. Hang on a sec, lemmie pull up the list
[21:15] <Slart> jeeves__:  "convert -delay *.jpg testmovie.mpg"
[21:15] <shelly> how do I decline an update so that it stops appearing in the toolbar
[21:15] <debCarlos> XStylus, ok :)
[21:15] <andy_brizza> hi all. Does anyone know where I could find a standard /etc/passwd file - same as after a clean installation of 7.10 - mine has gone all corrupted on me :-(
[21:15] <Slart> jeeves__:  "convert -delay 5 *.jpg testmovie.mpg"
[21:15] <alephant> Hi all... I pulled down the kernel GIT tree; how do I build a kernel package from the GIT sources?
[21:15] <Slart> jeeves__: sorry.. forgot the number after delay
[21:15] <jeeves__> Slart, and "convert" should be installed or what package is it a part of?
[21:15] <alephant> Sorry, I suck.
[21:15] <alephant> STFW
[21:15] <alephant> sorry
[21:15] <ethana2> unknowing: did it shut down cleanly?
[21:16]  * alephant grins sheepishly.
[21:16] <Slart> jeeves__: it's part of the imagemagick package
[21:16] <Slart> !imagemagick
[21:16] <Slart> !info imagemagick
[21:16] <ethana2> unknowing: it may be something else, but it should be there
[21:16] <unknowing> ethana2: sure.... maybe.... what do you mean by cleanly
[21:16] <ethana2> not hibernate, not crash
[21:16] <jeeves__> Slart, ok, building the package now
[21:16] <Irishman04> any 1 play halo 3
[21:16] <ethana2> irishman: wine doesn't even do halo /2/ yet
[21:17] <XStylus> debCarlos: e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.0, readline-5.2, parted-1.8.8, glibmm-2.16.4, gtkmm-2.12.7, build-essential, libparted1.7-dev
[21:17] <th0r> andy_brizza, I don't think there is a  'standard' passwd file
[21:17] <XStylus> Is there any negative effects to leaving them installed?
[21:17] <Irishman04> cause im looking for recruits for my clan
[21:17] <ethana2> i wouldn't buy an xbox 360, ever
[21:17] <ethana2> you can't run your own code on it
[21:17] <ethana2>  /and/ it's microsoft
[21:18] <jeeves__> Slart, ok, it's chewing on that command now
[21:18] <Slart> jeeves__: I'm trying it here too
[21:18] <ozzloy> http://xrl.us/kpz48 can someone help me with this?  firefox thinks everything is spelled incorrectly??
[21:18] <debCarlos> XStylus, ok, but don't uninsall build-essentials or the ones you installed with apt, the can be useful later :)
[21:18] <debCarlos> *the = they
[21:18] <Slart> jeeves__: mine failed.. mpeg2encode: not found
[21:19] <jeeves__> Slart, it's complaining it can't find "mpeg2encode"
[21:19] <ozzloy> i installed the US english dictionary to no avail
[21:19]  * bobJR I R Rawkin :  ACDC - Soul Stripper
[21:19] <XStylus> debCarlos: Again, any negative effects to just leaving all of it alone?
[21:19]  * bobJR I R Rawkin :  ACDC - Baby,Please Don't Go
[21:19] <jeeves__> Slart, ok, and I tried apt-get install mpeg2encode and it can't find the package
[21:19] <_Ben> ozzloy appologies for earlier nonsense my keyboard got hijacked.... check that your spell checker has the correct language settings
[21:19] <kcman> is there a version of deamon tools for linux?
[21:19] <dupondje> hellow, how do I get the ubuntu-proposed upgrades installed ?
[21:19]  * bobJR Rawkin This Room :  ACDC - Baby,Please Don't Go
[21:19] <bobJR> fuk
[21:20]  * bobJR Rawkin This Shit : ACDC - Baby,Please Don't Go
[21:20] <bobJR> there we go
[21:20] <ethana2> !ohmy | bobJR
[21:20] <ozzloy> _Ben: i installed the US English dictionary.  i don't know where i would check settings on that.
[21:20] <bobJR> kcman command line
[21:21] <kcman> bobJR yeah i am sure there are commands for mounting images but what of the other file types?
[21:21] <andy_brizza> th0r: but surely a lot of the lines are pretty standard - for all the ("non-user") accounts that are created by default on an installation? If I had those I could add the one or 2 real accounts? Or am I missing something?
[21:21] <debCarlos> XStylus, just the ones you installed manually, because you can't update them, just make a $ make uninstall on their folders ;)
[21:21] <ozzloy> _Ben: it shows in "Extensions" but the "Preferences" is greyed out.
[21:21] <Slart> jeeves__: ok.. I tried the mencoder way.. it actually worked.. here's my command line " mencoder "mf://*.jpg" -o movie.avi -ovc lavc "
[21:21] <earthling> kcman : you can use " mount -t iso9660 <image> <mount point>" as su
[21:21] <jeeves__> Slart, with all of the ""s?
[21:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !iso
[21:21] <debCarlos> I'm off for a minute :)
[21:21] <_Ben> ozzloy thats odd... Is there any info in the firefox help?
[21:22] <ozzloy> _Ben: and under "Languages" i have a bunch of different languages, one of which is "en-GB"
[21:22] <Slart> jeeves__: nah.. just the ones around mf://*.jpg
[21:22] <Slart> jeeves__: I don't even know if those are really needed
[21:22] <kcman> earthling question <mount point> would be what?
[21:22] <gnychis> should I install 32-bit Ubuntu or 64-bit ubuntu on a Thinkpad X300 laptop?
[21:22] <jeeves__> Slart, ok, one sec
[21:22] <Jack_Sparrow> kcman sudo mkdir /media/anythingyouwantittobe
[21:22] <ozzloy> _Ben: the about firefox shows my user-agent has "en-US;" in it
[21:22] <Jack_Sparrow> gnychis 32
[21:22] <_Ben> ozzloy in that case install the english gb dictionary and not the us one as us spellings are different from gb
[21:23] <Slart> gnychis: go with 32 bit unles you've got > 4GB of memory
[21:23] <ozzloy> _Ben: did you look at the link i pasted?
[21:23] <_Ben> ozzloy unless yer american of course lol
[21:23] <tiagoOM> does anyone know which encoding is used by rhythmbox to save locations of files on playlist.xml file?
[21:23] <earthling> kcman : any place known folder would do like /mnt/mount .. you can make that by typing /mnt/mount
[21:23] <ozzloy> _Ben: i have both installed
[21:23] <_Ben> ozzloy sorry no my keyboard was noy under my control at the time...
[21:23] <gnychis> Slart: I do have 4GB of memory... but if 32-bit is more stable then I'm OK with that
[21:23] <ncfi1013> thanx i dont really understand everything i was told but it sounds like it will be of help
[21:24] <jeeves__> Slart, it worked!!!  now to just slow it down a bit, and figure out how to add files (more JPGEs) to the end of the video one frame at a time
[21:24] <corky_> Ok, Apparently ubuntu just stops working randomly, I couldn't take real screen shots so i grabbed my old camera and took some pics, http://www.2shared.com/file/3610904/f9851081/errortar.html
[21:24] <Slart> gnychis: I don't see a difference in stability.. you'll only be able to use about 3.5 GB with 32 bit..
[21:24] <corky_> What the hell is wrong?.. ubuntu 8.04 over here, updated and all... :X
[21:24] <td123> gnychis: if you do heavy computing, 64bit is better, 32bit actually doesn't use some registers on the processor..
[21:24] <ozzloy> _Ben: i yam american.  but in the screenshot i linked, i have common words underlined in red
[21:24] <ZimCS> Does anyone know how to isntall CGI on apache2 in Ubuntu?
[21:24] <Slart> jeeves__: I don't think you'll be able to just add an image at the end.. you'll probably have to recreate the entire movie every time
[21:24] <td123> on a 64bit processor
[21:24] <corky_> also: no nvidia drivers, nothing custom except skype for ubuntu 7.04 and pidgin :X
[21:25] <ozzloy> _Ben: http://xrl.us/kpz48
[21:25] <Slart> jeeves__: ok.. slowing it down a bit.. there ought to be a switch for that...
[21:25] <ozzloy> _Ben: where it says "this is spelled correctly, so why is it underlined in red?"
[21:25] <jeeves__> Slart, well, that's a wast of CPU time!!!  LOL.  it's a time lapse capture of a web accessable camera, so that's what I'd like to be able to add to the end of it
[21:25] <Slart> jeeves__: will you be creating huuuge movies?
[21:26] <_Ben> ozzloy i see where that might be an issue... I'd recommend removing ALL languages and dictionaries before adding in just your regional ones
[21:26] <ozzloy> _Ben: it's like that for every input text box
[21:26] <gnychis> Slart: are there any reasons against using 64-bit?
[21:26] <Slart> jeeves__: you could create a move of the last 6 hours and save that.. then recreate that last bit and join the movie with the older stuff
[21:26] <ozzloy> _Ben: i'll give that a shot
[21:26] <_Ben> ozzloy it looks like its using the wrong language so thats all i can come up with
[21:26] <Slart> gnychis: some stuff are quirky.. flash for example
[21:26] <jeeves__> Slart, nope.  I'd like to find a way that every night @ midnight, the script will start a new video file.  And every 10 mins when the script downloads a new picture, it would just add it to the movie.  then, it can slowly build the video over the day
[21:27] <Slart> jeeves__: ah.. but one day worth of images can't be that bad.. how many images are we talking about?
[21:27] <_Ben> can anyone help me find wmadec i have been searching all day, its not even in w64codecs...
[21:28] <speedbaron> is there a hotmail email client for ubuntu?
[21:28] <jeeves__> for all of the cams (aprox 200), it's less than 500Mb
[21:28] <td123> Slart: 6*24 images
[21:28] <jbroome> speedbaron: firefox
[21:28] <Jack_Sparrow> speedbaron Do you have a paid pop account on hotmail
[21:29] <Slart> jeeves__: do you really need to update the movie every 10 mins? will people be watching these movies during the day?
[21:29] <speedbaron> Jack_Sparrow: yes... they don't offer pop anymore
[21:29] <Jack_Sparrow> speedbaron Hotmail no loinger offers pop3?
[21:29] <b0xd> how to turn ON system beep?
[21:30] <speedbaron> yep
[21:30] <jeeves__> Slart, it's 144 pics/day  and yes, people will be checking all day long.  I'd like to double the capture rate if I can make the video update
[21:30] <LSD|Ninja> When did hotmail offer POP3?
[21:30] <Slart> jeeves__: hmm.. well.. let's see what mencoder can do.. perhaps there is a "add a frame to the end of this movie" option somewhere
[21:30] <speedbaron> Jack_Sparrow:  they stopped offering it
[21:30] <LSD|Ninja> (I take it we;re talking about downloading messages with a POP client, not accessing POP accounts from hotmail)
[21:31] <b0xd> so, how do i turn beep on?
[21:31] <Jack_Sparrow> speedbaron gmail still offers it
[21:31] <jeeves__> Slart, ok, thanks.  as I said, there will be 144 captured pics/day, and I'd like to encode the videos so they last ~2-3 mins (maybe 5 mins)/day.
[21:31] <Dedi> hotmail pop is still working
[21:31] <_Ben> wmadec is a windows application used to decode wmas in jinzora, does anyone know if it is possible to port wmadec to linux or run it in wine?  or is there an alternative
[21:32] <jeeves__> Slart, so, if my math isn't off, that's 2.083333333 frams/sec
[21:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Dedi Thanks, I just cant figure out why they would kill off pop
[21:32] <Slart> jeeves__: if you have more hard disk space than you have cpu power you could skip the filters and compression during the day.. only use the fine settings for the "once a day" conversion
[21:32] <jk101> hello?
[21:32] <LSD|Ninja> Jack_Sparrow: so they can push the Windows Live mail client I suspect
[21:32] <debCarlos> i'm back :)
[21:32] <cottima> is there a good gui lvm viewer/editor? or live cd with?
[21:32] <Dedi> Jack_Sparrow: i've read that new and newer accounts arent possible to access pop3, but the most acc should still work
[21:32] <speedbaron> what is the pop and smtp?
[21:33] <ozzloy> _Ben: i have disabled everything under "Languages" and uninstalled the US Spellcheck.  no avail T_T
[21:33] <Dedi> LSD|Ninja: they wanted to, but too many reclemations
[21:33] <jk101> does anyone know the answer to this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=861855
[21:33] <jeeves__> Slart, that's the problem, I don't have a lot of resourceses to dump into this.
[21:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Dedi I guess webmail would be the next best choice
[21:33] <LSD|Ninja> wait, what kind of POP access are we talking about again?
[21:33] <speedbaron> Dedi: really
[21:33] <jk101> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=861855
[21:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Dedi Personally I use imap on gmail
[21:34] <speedbaron> Jack_Sparrow: ya but with webmail u cannot read it offline
[21:34] <Jack_Sparrow> speedbaron Dump MS
[21:34] <Dedi> i use hotwayd to fetch hotmail
