[19:42] <Scunizi> Pici, I'm not wading at all.. the link shows how to fix grub without touching config files..
[19:42] <Pici> CarstenF: So, mount it first?
[19:42] <Mmjack> Kk
[19:42] <Pici> Scunizi: I didnt see it after scrolling halfway down
[19:42] <Niteye> how can i set the $PATH variable to be only one dir for a certain user
[19:42] <mediabuntu> thank you pici
[19:42] <stiev3> how can I identify what my uid is?
[19:43] <ompaul> stiev3, open a terminal (applications accessories terminal) and type id
[19:43] <batoms> stiev3: id -u
[19:43] <gsak> Niteye-> modify their .profile ?
[19:43] <BenjiClub> hi
[19:43] <DaBeowulf> Do you know about a bug where booting from the Live CD has the mouse pointer rendering not updated and the only visible clue to where it's at is buttons highlighting? (Xubuntu.. :| )
[19:44] <tharvey> so how often does Ubuntu's kernel update, requiring rebuilds/updates of things like vmware-player that have kernel modules?
[19:44] <Scunizi> stiev3, use blkid to identify the uuid's..
[19:44] <Pici> Niteye, gsak; that wouldnt stop them from modifying their path once they logged in.
[19:44] <ompaul> DaBeowulf, suggest you ask in #xubuntu as they would kinda know more
[19:44] <ompaul> tharvey, when a security updated happens
[19:45] <DaBeowulf> I did already of course. Thanks, though.
[19:45] <godzirra> This is an odd question, but does anyone know much about headphones, and what the driver size means, exactly?
[19:45] <Scunizi> tharvey, once you've received a kernel update you have to run sudo ./usr/bin/vmware-config.pl to get vmware back.
[19:45] <tharvey> ompaul, so how often would you say that occurs.... once a month, week, day?
[19:45] <Jonator> Nån som kan tipsa om en mediaspelare likt winamp, för mp3
[19:45] <Scunizi> tharvey, that is for "server"  I'm not sure about the player in synaptic.
[19:45] <mediabuntu> myssh no longer works i keep getting Permission denied (publickey,password).
[19:45] <tharvey> Scunizi, so the issue I had on fedora was that vmware-config.pl would not work without downloading a bunch of vmware-any-any crud... is that the case with Ubuntu?
[19:45] <ompaul> tharvey, whenever there is a security update, that could be once in six months or every day for a month - depends on upstream
[19:46] <Mmjack> OMG THIS IS ANOYING. my Graphics driver is not working properly (NVIDIA) i run a hp dv6000 and when i enable compiz Evrything hoes wrong
[19:46] <Pici> Niteye: look into rbash: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/restrict-linux-users-to-their-home-directories-only/
[19:46] <BenjiClub> i recently tried to install ubuntu 7.10, but it doesn't support my ite82x raid controller anymore.. i cant install 7.10, how is that? 6.x did
[19:46] <ompaul> tharvey, they fix security stuff when they need to
[19:46] <patrickr_> wine worked fine for me under edgy.  i rebuilt my machine with gutsy and my box locks up hard when i run winecfg.  it does't create .wine instead it creates .wine-randomletters.
[19:46] <h4writer> Hi, I got something weired. When I want to start the 'program' 'windows' in the preferences tab I get: Window manager "compiz" has not registered a configuration tool
[19:46] <mediabuntu> i have removed every thing in  sudo nano /home/backupppc/.ssh/known_hosts
[19:47] <Scunizi> tharvey, no.. I've been running VMWare server since Dapper 6.06 and the command has never really let me down.. It does do a recompile. But to install it in the first place you have to have installed "build-essential". All tools will already be there.
[19:47] <CarstenF> Pici i have mounted my hdd on /mnt
[19:47] <EdgEy> hey
[19:47] <Scunizi> EdgEy, hey back at ya
[19:48] <EdgEy> for some reason my microphone is really really quiet in ubuntu, have it on maxed volume in alsamixer
[19:48] <Scunizi> EdgEy, did you turn on the 20 db boost?
[19:48] <EdgEy> anything i can do about that? using an audigy2
[19:48] <EdgEy> Scunizi, i'm trying to in alsamixer can't figure out the key to press :|
[19:48] <tharvey> Scunizi, great thanks for the info - yes, I apparently have build-essential b/c the modules built/installed - I still am surprised there isn't a simple package to download via the GUI as I thought vmware 'supported' Ubuntu which I thought would mean a nice .deb package to get via synaptic
[19:48] <Pici> CarstenF: okay?
[19:48] <waterloo_sunset> finally! nvidia drivers are working for me :)
[19:48] <DaBeowulf> boost mic activated in it as well?
[19:49] <Scunizi> tharvey, I think player is there.. but I don't like it.. server has worked better for me.
[19:49] <Kl4m> tharvey: yeah vmware "supports" ubuntu just like samsung does
[19:49] <waterloo_sunset> now when i right click on desktop and try to enable desktop effects, it says: can't enable :(
[19:49] <Curley_Sue> hi all, my tty console is badly configured (fonts are extremely huge)
[19:49] <tharvey> Scunizi, I can't seem to find player via synaptic
[19:49] <Curley_Sue> any ideas how to reconfigure the tty console?
[19:49] <Scunizi> EdgEy, right mouse click the speaker icon by the clock and choose "open volume control" you should find it in there.
[19:50] <waterloo_sunset> do i need to install any package to get those desktop effects to work?
[19:50] <nny> any way to see why init is using so much memory after startup? It also hangs at loading init scrtips and requires [enter] to get to a prompt
[19:50] <SpinBoson> How do I disallow another user to change their password?
[19:50] <help_me_pls> is bluefish good as php editor?
[19:50] <Scunizi> tharvey, yea.. I can't either.. that's the first time I looked for it.
[19:51] <Sizban> I have made a partition its showing in /media/disk but i want to use it to save stuff and it says "Premission denied" when i try to make directories on it , how can i use it ?  and can i link it to /home?
[19:51] <Sizban> it is mounted

[19:52] <Niteye> what is a good console-based IRC client
[19:52] <Pici> Niteye: irssi
[19:52] <ompaul> SpinBoson, you can add a * to the start of their password in /etc/shadow
[19:52] <EdgEy> damnit, think my mic may just be broke, need to have it really close to my mouth then it's ok
[19:52] <Scunizi> Niteye, irssi

[19:52] <jamiejackson> n feisty, some profiles wouldn't trigger a connection in the dropdown, so i'd have to open them. but in feisty, it often just uses some other profile that i didn't pick
[19:52] <Sizban> thanks
[19:52] <jamiejackson> started happening in gutsy
[19:52] <Kl4m> SpinBoson: you need to change to minimal days before password change on their account to a very high number.
[19:52] <TumaT> someone knows how to change or remove gnome logo from nautilus?
[19:52] <jamiejackson> in feisty, some profiles wouldn't trigger a connection in the dropdown, so i'd have to open them. but in feisty, it often just uses some other profile that i didn't pick. anybody know of an identified bug, or some workaround, etc?

[19:53] <scott__> I got a question
[19:53] <leos_> hi to the room
[19:53] <ompaul> !ask | scott__
[19:53] <ubotu> scott__: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[19:53] <Ranpha1> do i need to install a realtek driver to get a onbaird 8169 nic working at giabit speed?
[19:53] <scott__> has anyone gotten ubuntu to work with the fglxr drivers I can't get 3d rendering working with xgl to save my life.
[19:54] <quittt> hi
[19:54] <SpinBoson> Kl4m: How do I do that?
[19:54] <Lordveda> seems no one has a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 1705
[19:54] <Scunizi> scott__, this is a question for #ubuntu-effects
[19:54] <quittt> I have Ubuntu installed, but know I change it to XUbuntu
[19:54] <Kl4m> Spinboson man chage
[19:54] <EminX> scorp123: I use this stick in windows also, and I saw some files from Ubuntu OS, that I doubt they are files from viruses that some antiviruses can't find
[19:54] <amias> anyone got a echo digital layla 3g sound card working with ubuntu ?
[19:54] <quittt> but I want to change GRUB boot manager to XUbuntu as well
[19:54] <Pici> quittt: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-destkop
[19:54] <quittt> how do I do it?
[19:54] <Pici> quittt: er, xubuntu-desktop
[19:54] <quittt> it is all installed... everything is XUbuntu
[19:54] <tharvey> so now I can't figure out how to mount a CIFS share to say /mnt - 'sudo mount -t cifs //server/share /mnt' same cmd I use on my fedora system - dmesg | tail shows no username which I shouldn't need
[19:54] <Pici> quittt: yes.
[19:55] <EminX> i deleted them, but I was thinking if I can scan for viruses
[19:55] <Kl4m> SpinBoson: sorry I was searching just for that in the meantime :)
[19:55] <quittt> but I want to change GRUB menu to XUbuntu, since it is Ubuntu there
[19:55] <SpinBoson> Kl4m: that's okay, thanks!
[19:55] <Lordveda> Ubuntu 7.10 graphics auto configuration can't be initiated on my notebook.
[19:55] <leos_> i watched through firestarter the connections and i noticed ktorrent using webadmin service!! is this normal?!
[19:55] <Lordveda> The notebook has a Via Chrome HC graphics chipset.
[19:55] <quittt> isn't there an option for it?
[19:56] <Lordveda> I don't have a solution for this problem can someone please help?
[19:56] <tharvey> Scunizi, so is there perhaps a way to automate the running of vmware-config.pl when a kernel update occurs to make things seemless?
[19:56] <Pici> leos_: I believe it automatically maps port numbers to the typical applications that run on them, so 10000 would be webmin typically.
[19:56] <ICQnumber> is ubuntu cd allso a LIVE CD?

[20:01] <gsak> xterm is to launch a terminal
[20:01] <eichenwald> 'leave
[20:01] <amias> Barbarello, might be a problem with gnome-window-decorator
[20:01] <amias> EminX,  clamav is an anti virus scanner
[20:01] <Pici> Scunizi: look at the manpage for gnome-terminal, you'll need to invoke that and run a command.
[20:02] <alonso> why firefox dispalys websites like if they were bulked up?

[20:03] <wolflord> can anyone tell me what Webcache is ?? I am seeing this on my firewall and dont know what it is
[20:03] <Makedonas> hey guys, quick question...During my install I wasnt connected to the internet. Consequently ubuntu didnt take something from http://security.ubuntu.com Now I find that I cant access any of the programs from the add programs database. I guess these things are connected, any clues on what I should do?
[20:03] <Veovis> Makedonas: try, sudo apt-get update
[20:04] <MasterShrek> Makedonas try opening a terminal and typing: sudo apt-get update then try again
[20:04] <Makedonas> cheers
[20:04] <guillaume> hi here. Is there is a channel for ubuntu PPC or can i ask for help here ?
[20:04] <Barbarello> amias: theres no appl like that. Even on repo.
[20:04] <MasterShrek> guillaume if its not ppc specific you can probably get help here
[20:04] <alonso> why does firefox doesnt update automatically?
[20:04] <wolflord> can anyone tell me what Webcache is ?? I am seeing this on my firewall and dont know what it is
[20:04] <MasterShrek> alonso firefox will update through apt
[20:05] <Makedonas> right, that still didnt work
[20:05] <Makedonas> the only files that updated seemed to be some us translation files
[20:05] <alonso> but i got <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> is out
[20:05] <Barbarello> проклятье
[20:05] <Makedonas> basically, if I click on any of the programs I would like to add it tells me that "the list of programs is unavailable, click reload" so I click reload
[20:05] <Makedonas> and then the same thing happens
[20:05] <guillaume> MasterShrek: i don't know if it's ppc specific. Gusty does not boot and after a short while (1 or 2 minutes), I have a message like "unable to found harddrive /dev/..."
[20:05] <Makedonas> endlessly
[20:05] <Niteye> i am trying to install squid, and it is giving me a notice that " The values for 'cache_effective_user' and/or 'cache_effective_group' in Squid's configuration file are   │
[20:05] <Niteye>  │ incompatible with the owner/group of the cache directories. . Please choose whether this should be fixed automatically.", what should i do, is this safe?
[20:05] <MasterShrek> Makedonas system > administration > software sources and make sure that the first 4 checkboxes are checked
[20:06] <MasterShrek> Niteye never used squid, but i would let them be fixed automatically
[20:06] <leos_> another 2...  protocols named gatecrasher
[20:06] <Sizban> How can i change premission on a dir so a regular user can do anything he wants in it? ( full access)

[20:07] <jrib> Sizban: what dir?
[20:07] <neur1> hello
[20:07] <MasterShrek> Sizban chmod -r 777
[20:07] <leos_> another 2...  protocols named gatecrasher what are those?
[20:07] <alonso> whats the latest version for firefox available for ubuntu?
[20:07] <Sizban> just some personal dir
[20:07] <DaBeowulf> man chmod @ Sizban
[20:07] <Makedonas> Mastershrek; you sir are worth your weight in gold. Problem solved.
[20:07] <Sizban> thanks
[20:07] <d90> what is best  repository, with newest versions of application
[20:07] <MasterShrek> Makedonas :)
[20:07] <jrib> !permission > Sizban (read the private message from ubotu)
[20:07] <Winball> alonso im not sure but I have <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:07] <ompaul> !best | d90
[20:07] <ubotu> d90: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[20:07] <leos_> MasterShrek:ellinas?
[20:07] <jrib> Sizban: recursive 777 is rarely what you want
[20:07] <d90> what is good repository, with newest versions of application
[20:08] <MasterShrek> d90 compiling for source is always the best way to have the newest software, but generally the newest software, as ubotu suggests, is not the best
[20:08] <alonso> if <IP_ADDRESS> is up why ubuntu dont has it available?
[20:08] <jamiejackson> just realized i left out a bit of context for my "dropdown triggers connection to wrong profile" post: i'm having a problem where in Terminal Service CLient, the dropdown takes me to unexpected other profile
[20:08] <MasterShrek> alonso it will probably be there in the next few days
[20:08] <alonso> ok thnx
[20:08] <dedi> i have very high iowait cpu usage and would like to find out why. can anyone help me?
[20:08] <ompaul> d90, newest is not great for stability, what you want is release which is the same everywhere, or the development version which will break on a regular basis on your hardware
[20:09] <neur1> how do we change a line in the /etc/pcmcia/config.opts. pages

[20:22] <guillaum3> MasterShrek: in the shell, no, there is NOT hdX drive. But the computer have a harddrive
[20:22] <adriaan_> I need help with my problem guys....
[20:23] <Odd-rationale> adriaan_: I really don't know. Have you tried reinstalling?
[20:23] <tussey> my 64bit ubuntu cd loads the startup menu and I can move up and down but none of the selections work. I wondered if it wasn't because I tried the 64bit version
[20:23] <adriaan_> yes
[20:23] <adriaan_> two times
[20:23] <MasterShrek> guillaum3 it may be sda3 then, you would most likely have to boot the liveCD again, and find out the actual device name of hte drive and make sure it is consistent in /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab
[20:23] <alonso> can i have visual notification msn messenger style on pidgin?
[20:23] <ZiRo`> fs
[20:24] <MasterShrek> alonso guifications
[20:24] <Odd-rationale> adriaan_: Sorry, I really don't know. :(
[20:24] <adriaan_> argh
[20:24] <adriaan_> thanks anyway
[20:24] <ZiRo`> trying to clone hdd to move vista to a 500gb from a 180gber is a mission
[20:24] <guillaum3> MasterShrek: there is no "sdXy" in /dev.
[20:24] <alonso> is that a complement?
[20:25] <MasterShrek> guillaum3 is there hdxx ?
[20:25] <adriaan_> does anyone has a free wma-mp3 converter for me?
[20:25] <MasterShrek> alonso thats the plugin for pidgin that you want i believe
[20:25] <soundray> tussey: what happens when you try the top option?
[20:25] <MasterShrek> adriaan_ not sure but i think soundkonvertor may work
[20:25] <bieb> Ziro... what are you using to clone?
[20:25] <tussey> nothing
[20:25] <guillaum3> MasterShrek: ls /dev | grep hd --> nothing
[20:25] <alonso> oh
[20:25] <tussey> I keep pressing enter over and over
[20:25] <tussey> nothing changes
[20:25] <soundray> tussey: what CPU do you have?
[20:26] <tussey> intel core 2 duo
[20:26] <Odd-rationale> adriaan_: SoundConverter should work

[20:26] <soundray> tussey: I think your burn failed. Fingerprint or somesuch
[20:26] <Odd-rationale> adriaan_: Otherwise there is a free converter on the net. Let me get the link...
[20:26] <tussey> can you explain how to do that?
[20:26] <adriaan_> he couldn't find "SoundConverter"
[20:26] <d90> Pici, thx
[20:27] <MasterShrek> tussey when u first boot of the cd, check it for defects, theres an option for it
[20:27] <Sizban> How can i set terminal commands to be excuted upon startup ?

[20:27] <tussey> that doesn't do anything either
[20:27] <Odd-rationale> adriaan_: Try this: http://www.media-convert.com/ Not good for batch convert, though.
[20:27] <mediabuntu> what dose it mean when vmware takes 3 days to install ?
[20:27] <tussey> none of the options actually work. I'm checking the md5 of the CD now
[20:27] <adriaan_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=37793, is this a possibility?
[20:27] <Jocke> What version of Firefox is used in Gobuntu?
[20:27] <Scunizi> Pici, thanks for the gnome-terminal man page suggestion.  However when I click on a panel and create a custom app launcher, I can't get it to launch if it's a terminal program like 'blkid'. I've tried 'gnome-terminal -x blkid' and other variations with no success.
[20:27] <MasterShrek> mediabuntu it means you should use something else to vm, like virtualbox
[20:27] <amishninja> Is Gutsy Gibbon (7.10) a step up in stability from Feisty (7.04)?
[20:27] <soundray> tussey: good idea.
[20:28] <ivan> hi noticed a problem in ubuntu with a core Duo laptop that the stepping frequncy only steps between 800 and 12000 can this be fixed ?
[20:28] <Scunizi> Pici, any suggestions?
[20:28] <MasterShrek> amishninja yes
[20:28] <soundray> Jocke: <IP_ADDRESS>

[20:29] <punzada> meh, having issues with gutsy
[20:29] <punzada> just did an install on my desktop
[20:29] <DrUnKnMuNkY> Hey. does anyone know of any solutions to problems with suspend to disk or ram? i don't have an ati card (no fglrx)
[20:29] <MasterShrek> punzada whats the issue?
[20:30] <punzada> when I boot my network isn't being recognized and I get an Internal Error: failed to initalize HAL error
[20:30] <punzada> so far forum threads, although I have found a few, have been unhelpful
[20:30] <MasterShrek> DrUnKnMuNkY standby and hibernate have never really be stable in linux
[20:30] <alonso> ok thnx solved notifications
[20:30] <soundray> ivan: the frequency step is controlled by a ruleset called governor. There is very rarely a situation when it makes sense for a system to run at something between the most performant and the most powersaving mode.
[20:30] <AKX> Hey, I just installed Ubuntu Server 7.10 on a box I have, and now I'm getting these "perl: warning: Setting locale failed." etc. errors whenever I run an apt-get installation. What should I do?
[20:31] <Pici> Scunizi: Sounds like you'd also have to setup a new gnome-termnial profile that doesnt quit on exit.
[20:31] <DrUnKnMuNkY> MasterShrek: So just wait and hope?
[20:31] <Pici> Scunizi: or is it exit on quit?
[20:31] <MasterShrek> DrUnKnMuNkY pretty much, thers not much else you can do, maybe try compiling a newer kernel, but thats not for sure if it will work
[20:31] <DrUnKnMuNkY> MasterShrek: Thanks
[20:32] <alonso> i cant get firefox to store on my desktop how can i make firefox to store my downloads on desktop?
[20:32] <coulix> i have been trying to fix http://dpaste.com/24492/ for ages, dpkg-reconfigure locales, locale-gen does not work, its on gusty any ideas ?
[20:32] <tussey> where is a good place to find torrents of ubuntu?
[20:32] <dragon33> greetings, id s http://www.lm-sensors.org/ a good cpu monitoring program? how difficult is it to install? thanks
[20:32] <ivan> soundray: i want my lapot to work on low freq when needed to is it possible for core Duo to step down to 300?
[20:32] <Sizban> Anyway to make ubuntu make 2 terminal commands upon startup?
[20:32] <soundray> !download | tussey
[20:32] <ubotu> tussey: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://nl.releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive - PLEASE use the !torrents to download Gutsy, and help keeping the servers' load low!
[20:32] <coulix> ivan you cant
[20:32] <tussey> !torrents
[20:32] <soundray> ivan: I don't think so
[20:32] <ubotu> Torrent downloads for the Ubuntu ISOs are available on all the download pages. For Gutsy: http://fr.releases.ubuntu.com/gutsy/ (CDs) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.10/release/ (DVDs) - Please download using the torrents if you can!
[20:32] <tussey> !dvd | tussey
[20:32] <coulix> ivan: its hardware not software
[20:33] <Scunizi> Pici, I don't think it's suppose to be that complicated.  If I right mouse click on a panel and choose "add" then Custom App Launcher, I have a choice of "application", application in terminal or location.  I'm also having problems creating a link to open a directory (icon on panel)
[20:33] <tussey> !cd | tussey
[20:33] <tussey> what's the diff between gutsy CD and DVD?
[20:33] <Scunizi> tussey, dvd has lots more stuff on it like kubuntu, xubuntu etc.
[20:33] <MasterShrek> tussey the dvd has much more software, but the software is available through the repos
[20:34] <MasterShrek> so if you have a fast internet connection, using the cd will be no problem, and actually will result in a smaller install
[20:34] <tussey> kubuntu, isn't the KDE?
[20:34] <MasterShrek> tussey yes
[20:34] <tussey> so just different GUI?
[20:34] <MasterShrek> different desktop environment
[20:34] <dragon33> is there any advantage of using gnome over KDE?
[20:34] <MasterShrek> dragon33 personal preference
[20:35] <wereHamster> how can I change which  channel the 'volume up/down' buttons change? currently the change the 'mic' volume which is quite useless
[20:35] <Pici> Scunizi: Its complicated if you want to start a typically terminal based application/
[20:35] <soundray> dragon33: it's a matter of taste and many a philosophical discussion
[20:35] <dragon33> gotcha :-)
[20:35] <tussey> KDE doesn't look refined, pretty 'blocky' actually
[20:35] <Scunizi> tussey, kubuntu uses kde and has different libraries, xubuntu uses xfce.  You can install Ubuntu with gnome and then sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop to install kde then just change "sessions" on boot to get to it.
[20:35] <tussey> oh cool
[20:36] <Scunizi> Pici, I'll have to boot back into Dapper to see how i did it there.. It didn't seem difficult at the time.... but .. if you don't use the skills all the time, some disappear
[20:36] <Jonator> Is the build-in torrent programs good for use? speedlimit etc?
[20:37] <MasterShrek> Jonator its probably not as good as a 3rd party client
[20:37] <MasterShrek> ktorrent ftw!
[20:37] <MasterShrek> :)
[20:37] <wolflord> hey guys thanks for the help
[20:37] <Jonator> MasterShrek, just wanna use something else than Azureus as it crashes after a while for me
[20:38] <Jonator> ktorrent sounds good then gonna try it
[20:38] <bardyr> Jonator, Deluge-Torrent is the best client, it looks like utorrent
[20:38] <MasterShrek> i dont like azureus, the fact that it runs on java is kinda pointless to me, takes too many resources for just downloading torrents
[20:38] <Jonator> true i guess
[20:39] <Jonator> deluge k ill try that then :p
[20:39] <bardyr> does anyone how what the "top" cpu values mean? links are good :) Cpu0  : %us, %sy,  %ni, %id,  %wa,  %hi,  %si,  %st
[20:39] <FRuMMaGe> hi
[20:39] <endo602> Question:  smbmount works fine in terminal.  when i add it to fstab i get a /etc/mtab~ lock failed.  Can someone please help me?
[20:39] <soundray> Is there a way to combine the effects of "head" and "tail" on the command line? I.e. spit out the first few, then the last few lines from stdin?
[20:39] <MasterShrek> bardyr man top
[20:40] <bardyr> does anyone know what the "top" cpu values mean? links are good :) Cpu0  : %us, %sy,  %ni, %id,  %wa,  %hi,  %si,  %st
[20:40] <hellomail> +s
[20:40] <LjL> endo602: what are you adding to fstab exactly?
[20:40] <MasterShrek> soundray command | head && command | tail probably
[20:40] <bardyr> MasterShrek, did that, but those values where in not in the man pages
[20:40] <Jonator> How do you change default program for example .mp3, .torrent etc?
[20:40] <Sizban> How can i add 2 terminal commands to be executed on startup ?
[20:41] <MasterShrek> Sizban when do you want them run? before gdm starts?
[20:41] <LjL> !boot > Sizban    (Sizban, see the private message from Ubotu)
[20:41] <soundray> MasterShrek: I was hoping to avoid calling command twice, because it's a bit of a strain on the network.
[20:41] <Sizban> sorry closed the chat
[20:41] <LjL> !default > Jonator    (Jonator, see the private message from Ubotu)
[20:41] <MasterShrek> soundray im not really sure...
[20:41] <Sizban> anyone answered me?
[20:42] <MasterShrek> !boot | Sizban
[20:42] <ubotu> Sizban: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[20:42] <Sizban> thanks
[20:42] <LjL> Sizban, the bot sent you a message that should be relevant. look at your private messages
[20:42] <Jonator> ow that easy thanks LjL
[20:42] <soundray> Thanks anyway MasterShrek
[20:42]  * soundray goes off to read man awk
[20:43] <wereHamster> I managetd that the panel volume control controls the PCM, but the laptop buttons sill control the mic volume..
[20:44] <Tarkus> is GTK a more popular toolkit than Qt? (and is one more stable or lightweight than the other)?

[20:45] <ICQnumber> what is Ubuntu 7.10 alternate?
[20:45] <MasterShrek> ICQnumber its a text based installer
[20:45] <ICQnumber> what is the different to normal one
[20:45] <LjL> stupid soundray why did he leave, i liked that question...
[20:45] <LjL> !alternate > ICQnumber    (ICQnumber, see the private message from Ubotu)
[20:45] <ICQnumber> okey
[20:46] <Jonator> um "minimize to tray" wasnt any good option :p dissapered. I have to kill it?
[20:46] <ICQnumber> LjL, ty
[20:46] <endo602> jLA i am adding a smbfs
[20:46] <Jonator> Deluge BitTorrent that is
[20:47] <MasterShrek> Jonator is it still running?
[20:47] <LjL> endo602: i get that. what text *exactly* have you tried adding to fstab, though
[20:47] <Jonator> yup
[20:47] <MasterShrek> Jonator the yea, youll probably have to kill it
[20:47] <Jonator> oki
[20:48] <jadedangel3> ok i am having an issue i cant remember the konsole command for changing screen resolution video card ect
[20:48] <pajaro91> holas
[20:48] <stiev3> To mount a windows share, all the tutorials i've read say install smbfs, however it's deprecated right?  Should I look to using something else?
[20:49] <endo602> LjL //<IP_ADDRESS>/Files /home/me/Files smbfs  credentials=/etc/samba/user,rw,user=me 0 0
[20:49] <MasterShrek> jadedangel3 sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will allow you to reconfigure your xserver
[20:49] <jadedangel3> thank you
[20:49] <JoeThomas> Hi, is there anyway to determine what type of ram modules i have via terminal?
[20:49] <jadedangel3> next question if you dont mind, i am running really slow after i reconfigured my xserver
[20:50] <MasterShrek> jadedangel3 did you select the correct video driver?
[20:50] <MasterShrek> JoeThomas does: cat /proc/meminfo give you the info you are looking for?
[20:50] <dragon33> is there a graphical cpu and motherboard monitoring program available under ubuntu? best one that you have used? thank :-)
[20:50] <jadedangel3> yes and it is an intigrated video card
[20:50] <MasterShrek> dragon33 gnome-system-monitor probably
[20:50] <|_James_Bond_|> Hi ppl...
[20:51] <jrib> LjL: solution in zsh!
[20:51] <jadedangel3> and i set the mem to 128mb in server edit in the konsole
[20:51] <LjL> jrib: to soundray?
[20:51] <JoeThomas> MasterShrek: ehh, not really wanted to know if it was ddr or ddr2 but, not a big deal, I can just tear open the case :)
[20:51] <jrib> LjL: yeah
[20:51] <JoeThomas> MasterShrek: thanks
[20:51] <dragon33> thanks mastershrek, i was thinking about a temperature and fan speed control utility
[20:51] <jadedangel3> Mastershrek:i was thinking if i didnt give it but half or 32 or maybe none, if that would help
[20:51] <funnyman7> Is there a way to create a new xorg file that will automatically detect most of my settings? I screwed mine up somehow.
[20:51] <MasterShrek> dragon33 lmsensors i believe should do it, apt-get it, could be lm-sensors
[20:52] <dragon33> thanks :-)
[20:52] <LjL> jrib: i'm not sure why « | tee >(head >/tmp/head) >(tail >/tmp/tail) >/dev/null » doesn't work... the head looks fine, but the tail seems to be some quite random part of the file i tried
[20:52]  * MasterShrek is out, time 4 class....later every1 :)
[20:52] <DrUnKnMuNkY> does anyone know why artsd would be constantly using 12-15% of CPU?
[20:53] <LjL> endo602: try using "cifs" rather than "smbfs", for a start
[20:53] <MaDeX> hiya poops
[20:53] <krakatoa> holaaaa
[20:53] <MaDeX> I need some assistance
[20:53] <endo602> ljl do i need to insall the package?
[20:53] <MaDeX> :)
[20:53] <LjL> endo602: should be installed
[20:53] <MaDeX> 8800 GTS to install on 7.04
[20:53] <MaDeX> nvidia :(
[20:53] <MaDeX> i'm having looooads of problems
[20:53] <LjL> endo602: i mean, should be installed *already*. try just changing smbfs into cifs in fstab
[20:54] <LjL> MaDeX: well, start at the beginning
[20:54] <MaDeX> ok :)
[20:54] <MaDeX> fresh install (again) of feisty fawn
[20:54] <MaDeX> << i'm a real noob
[20:54] <MaDeX> tried the restricted drivers
[20:54] <MaDeX> its saying something about cannot start x server
[20:54] <endo602> that works :)
[20:55] <endo602> let me try some other folders
[20:55] <MaDeX> and wont boot, so I wiped hard drive
[20:55] <MaDeX> and here I am, ive consulted forum all day - but nothing works (maybe i'm doing it wrong)
[20:55] <EdgEy> ok, just tried my mic in windows to test
[20:55] <EdgEy> in windows my mic works fine, in ubuntu, it's really really quiet even with boost on
[20:55] <Scunizi> Is evolution-exchange-storage neccessary if I'm not using any MS Exchange functions? It eats 9meg of ram.
[20:55] <EdgEy> using an audigy2
[20:56] <amishninja> I have to ask: I'm on a laptop with some pretty good specs, but with a very shoddy video card. I've had minor problems in Feisty graphics-wise, but now I'm reading in the forums that Gutsy is worse. Is it still worth the upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 at this point?
[20:56] <Odd-rationale> MaDeX: So you can't even get to the login screen.
[20:56] <EdgEy> amish just dont use desktop effects
[20:56] <cinch> Hi I don't have any icons appearing on my desktop and Nautilus won't start. Can anyone help?
[20:56] <MaDeX> I can now, ive reinstalled
[20:57] <MaDeX> I just need drivers to work with my 8800 GTS
[20:57] <Oli``> Scunizi:  Holy buckets of phlegm! 9megs!? That's an entire $0.50 of ram there
[20:57] <Scunizi> EdgEy, if you type the first part of a nick then hit Tab it will auto complete and the person you're addressing will have a highlighted line.
[20:57] <endo602> LjL thank you
[20:57] <endo602> ljl why was that?
[20:57] <j0e_x> amish, it's worth it. i had a few intel grafix issues, easily fixed.
[20:58] <LjL> endo602, i'm not really sure, but smbfs is deprecated and full of problems, cifs should always be used now
[20:58] <Scunizi> Oli``, just trying to eliminate unnecessary processes.
[20:58] <amishninja> even with an intel 810/815? it's an awful card. :)
[20:58] <Odd-rationale> MaDeX: What happened when you opened the Restrited manager.
[20:58] <endo602> what about nfs?
[20:58] <EdgEy> i found a forum topic with the same problem
[20:58] <EdgEy> my mic works but itsreally really faint
[20:58] <amishninja> and I'm on a laptop, with those HD power usage issues to boot
[20:58] <LjL> MaDeX, so now your X is working but without the nvidia driver, or as you left at a console?
[20:58] <j0e_x> try removing the xorg xgl server.
[20:58] <brohken> hey guys, im installing 7.10 on my thinkpad with an alternate CD... the install seems to have froze at 85%. it just says "tomboy installed"... any ideas?
[20:58] <MaDeX> well
[20:59] <d90> what is good archive managment application, easy to use with gui.
[20:59] <MaDeX> it says a red dot
[20:59] <stiev3> endo602, before you bail, were you following a tutorial to set up your share, I'm currently attempting the same thing I'd like to follow your steps if you were... maybe u got a link?
[20:59] <GreySim> ango
[20:59] <MaDeX> so ive downloaded package and installed
[20:59] <Scunizi> d90, you want to compress files/folders?
[20:59] <d90> Scunizi, yes
[20:59] <d90> Scunizi, rar is priority
[20:59] <MaDeX> then it says to restart, once thats done it flickers a bit, then says this cannot load x driver
[20:59] <Odd-rationale> MaDeX: And you checked the box by the red dot?
[20:59] <LjL> d90: what's wrong with file-roller that's default?
[21:00] <d90> LjL, file-roller
[21:00] <d90> LjL?
[21:00] <Oli``> Scunizi: fair enough. does it exist in it's own package (that could be removed)? is evolution-exchange it?
[21:00] <d90> LjL, it inst default...
[21:00] <Scunizi> d90, choose files and folders then right mouse click and say create archive, it will give you some options.  If rar isn't installed, install first .. hopefully it'll show up on the list.
[21:01] <MrWhammy> small question here: I'm trying to copy all .mpg files from my home directory to my usb-stick. I tried the following, but it does not seem to work
[21:01] <MrWhammy> find . -depth -name "*.mpg" | cpio --null -pvd /media/disk/
[21:01] <EdgEy> is there anything i can do about this or am i just screwed
[21:01] <EdgEy> mic is unusable :/
[21:01] <Scunizi> Oli``, I think it's a plugin for Evo and access via Evo to turn it on and off.
[21:01] <ivan> exit
[21:02] <d90> Scunizi, thx A LOT
[21:02] <MaDeX> well, ive downloaded the drivers
[21:02] <Scunizi> d90, np
[21:02] <MaDeX> from resticted and then wonce rebooted wont start up
[21:02] <Oli``> Scunizi: well typically I'd suggest Thunderbird for mail (and scrub evo completely) but I doubt it's a performance improvement
[21:03] <MaDeX> would it be best if I download my drivers from nvidia site itself?
[21:03] <LjL> d90, yes it is default. it's in the Gnome menu, though perhaps under another name (i don't use gnome.
[21:03] <MaDeX> maybe those would work?
[21:03] <Paddy_EIRE> is it possible to run gutsy with an older kernel possibly the -15??
[21:03] <dn> anyone know of a 'delay' feature for running commands
[21:03] <LjL> !rar > d90    (d90, see the private message from Ubotu)
[21:03] <dn> like 'delay 1000 cmd'
[21:03] <jacobian> anyone know why after upgrading to ubuntu 7.10, when I watch a flash movie in firefox and start emacs (and some other programs as well) the flash movie stops working.
[21:03] <LjL> dn: sleep <seconds>
[21:03] <dn> sleep <seconds> command?
[21:03] <edzofcit> hi
[21:03] <d90> LjL, I use Ubuntu 7.10 and it says that default is "Archive Manager"
[21:04] <Scunizi> Oli``, Thunderbird's ok and Evo on Gutsy is much more stable than Dapper.  I like the integration it has but also find that kontact has better export features that I sometimes need.
[21:04] <LjL> dn: i.e. for instance « echo Hi ; sleep 3 ; echo How are you »
[21:04] <LjL> d90: yes, it's file-roller.
[21:04] <edzofcit> i have a problem
[21:04] <jasonbuntu> is there a software raid program in linux similar to the one in the new Windows Home Server, where you can mix various hard drivces together, regardless of size etc?
[21:04] <dn> can i put that in a 'Sessions'?
[21:04] <LjL> dn: no idea
[21:04] <dn> i have sshfs in there, but it runs it before my wireless connects
[21:04] <d90> LjL, yeah you are right it is File Roller 2.20.0
[21:04] <Oli``> Paddy_EIRE: the -15 kernel? I thought the latest gutsy kernel was -14?
[21:04] <edzofcit> my compiz manager hasn't work when i have an update
[21:04] <MaDeX> (would love some help to install gfx drivers)
[21:05] <LjL> dn, if it's a shell script, it should work
[21:05] <dn> it's in the gui thing for 'Sessions' under Preferences
[21:05] <LjL> dn, i'm on KDE
[21:05] <dn> i'm not apt at init.d scripts or bash scripts or whatever
[21:05] <Paddy_EIRE> Oli``, to be totally specific 2.6.20-15-generic
[21:05] <edzofcit> can someone help me
[21:06] <edzofcit> ?
[21:06] <Oli``> edzofcit: you probably need to reinstall your restricted driver, if you've had a kernel update
[21:06] <edzofcit> i have a problem with my compiz manager in ubuntu 7.10 when doing an update
[21:06] <LjL> dn: anyway /bin/sleep *is* a program, so i guess you could call it from anywhere. your GNOME thing just needs to support chaining of *two* commands (the sleep, and the actual command you want)
[21:07] <dn> i've put sleep 7; sshfs etc etc
[21:07] <EdgEy> is there any app that can process my microphone input before it reaches apps etc to make it louder
[21:07] <dn> i'll see how that works, thanks
[21:07] <LjL> dn: try either « sleep 10 ; command » or « sleep 10 && command » or perhaps even « sh -c "sleep 10 ; command »   (10 being the seconds, just an example)
[21:07] <edzofcit> okey ill try
[21:07] <dn> i guess i should probably look into creating a proper scripts
[21:07] <dn> thanks for the help LjL
[21:07] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, which key does those '«»'
[21:08] <LjL> MaDeX: no, don't download the drivers from the nvidia site, that will only cause problems. do you know how to reset your X to a working state if the driver doesn't work?
[21:08] <tobi> Hello
[21:08] <Oli``> Hi
[21:08] <LjL> !xconfig > MaDeX    (MaDeX, see the private message from Ubotu) you can do it like that, select "VESA" as the driver, and your X will start again
[21:08] <aryr100> anybody know how to get root access with E17 installed on ubuntu ?
[21:08] <Hornyy> 36
[21:08] <Paddy_EIRE> aryr100, sudo
[21:08] <Terrasque> aryr100: sudo, gksudo
[21:08] <Paddy_EIRE> !root | aryr100
[21:08] <ubotu> aryr100: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[21:09] <bonz_[R]> hi lads, anybody got issue with hotkey-setup on gibbon (or acpid ) ?
[21:09] <aryr100> I mean like with gnome i use alt+f2
[21:09] <LjL> MaDeX: you should pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (if the very last time you tried to start X, it failed because of the nvidia driver) or /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old (if it failed the time previous to that)
[21:09] <Paddy_EIRE> !anyone | bonz_[R]

[21:09] <aryr100> lol meant root file access
[21:09] <LjL> aryr100: what is root file access?
[21:09] <Paddy_EIRE> gnr, depends on what you require

[21:14] <Codenut> Before I run out of disks to make into coasters I need to understand how to make a bootable cdrom out of an .iso file. I am trying to use windows and I am trying to use the "EL Torito" mode.
[21:15] <LjL> MaDeX: ok, give me your current situation now. can you start X?
[21:15] <Codenut> Also, some progams say the .iso is too big, others put it below 700mb
[21:15] <LjL> tobi: dejavu is a font
[21:16] <howlingmadhowie> Codenut: i think that depends a lot upon the software you use. nero is said to have a direct burning mode. i'm not sure if windows' own burning application does that
[21:16] <tobi> LjL yes I know that !
[21:16] <LjL> tobi: well, you asked the bot.
[21:16] <MaDeX> LjL ive reinstalled and fresh copy of feisty - completely ready to go - trying via nvdia site - ill read instructions there and chat to you in sec
[21:16] <howlingmadhowie> tobi: dejavu is an image format :)
[21:16] <MaDeX> !tab
[21:16] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[21:16] <tobi> LjL yes usually the bot answers, not the op :-|
[21:16] <LjL> MaDeX: uhm, you know the current Ubuntu version is *Gutsy*, right?
[21:17] <MaDeX> I cant work this auto completion
[21:17] <LjL> tobi, the bot never answered to "what is" questions. i've made it give usage instructions to you.
[21:17] <MaDeX> lol
[21:17] <edzofcit> still has problem with compiz
[21:17] <LjL> MaDeX: then just type it, i have a 3-letters nickname
[21:17] <edzofcit> does someone experience whats im experiencing right now?
[21:17] <Codenut> So I just drop my iso into Nero, as is where is and it will burn for me?
[21:17] <tobi> LjL okay sorry
[21:17] <howlingmadhowie> Codenut: i have no idea :(
[21:17] <MaDeX> lol yeah that ljl
[21:18] <aryr100> with gnome i use alt+f2 then gksudo nautilus ! what do you use for E17 ?
[21:18] <tobi> anyway my real question was how make ubuntu use dejavu condensed font again ...
[21:18] <howlingmadhowie> Codenut: http://www.wizardskeep.org/mainhall/tutor/neroiso.html
[21:18] <LjL> aryr100: that's not something you should do often. anyway, you can use a terminal in E17, i assume, but you'd better ask in the E17 channel, we don't even have E17 in the repositories...

[21:26] <jamiejackson> but i can't find one that's got a handle
[21:26] <usr13> jamiejackson: When a device reports that it is busy, it's usually for a reason.
[21:26] <jamiejackson> okay, so how do i a) find the reason or b) disregard the reason and kill the mount?

[21:29] <nanonyme> get intel/3com? :)

[21:44] <jamiejackson> i've been needing that for way too long now (months)
[21:44] <dantheman440> i might...lol im not sure
[21:44] <stefg> dennis11527573: network speed depends on a lot of factors, like hardware, protocol and drivers. Without some more elaborate info on your issue noone will be able to help
[21:44] <Judg3_Dr34D> ?!
[21:44] <livingdaylight> does anyone use katapult in gnome here?! Guys?
[21:45] <dantheman440> if it a java file i should have downloaded off the java website?

[21:46] <livingdaylight> usr13: i really need to know... if you know something please tell me
[21:46] <Judg3_Dr34D> Does anyone have an idea??? I have installed the nVidia 100.14.11 drivers manually. Do I have to uninstall them prior to upgrading to Gutsy Gibbon???
[21:46] <Ongaku> does he need to have a program to see shared folders in Linux or should it just work?
[21:46] <Ongaku> probably judg3
[21:46] <Chousuke> Ongaku: what are you sharing the folder with? Samba?
[21:47] <wick3dbluntz420> linneighborhood comes to mind
[21:47] <waterloo_sunset> stefg: any clue as to where(which file) compiz related errors are logged, so i can know why i can't enable desktop effects
[21:47] <waterloo_sunset> i finally managed to get the drivers wroking btw
[21:47] <usr13> jamiejackson: or, maybe  sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[21:47] <Ongaku> i believe so chousuke system>administration>shared folders
[21:47] <Kl4m> Judg3_Dr34D: It would be better to uninstall them and use the "nv" driver prior to upgrading, then installing nvidia with gutsy
[21:47] <stiev3> Trying to mount a windows share, I have no problems doing it via the terminal, however I'm having trouble translating this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43704/ into fstab lingo.  Any ideas?

[21:48] <stefg> waterloo_sunset: ususally all logs go into /var/log , i would expect compiz to log in Xorg.0.log
[21:48] <Chousuke> Ongaku: I see.
[21:49] <usr13> livingdaylight: Sorry, was making a joke.
[21:49] <easytarget> kintaro: Amarok?
[21:49] <wick3dbluntz420> think he needs to set rhosts file maybe
[21:49] <mike5805> i use amarok
[21:49] <usr13> I'm an incurable humorist
[21:49] <Chousuke> Ongaku: from windows you should be able to "connect to a network drive" or something I guess.
[21:49] <easytarget> kintaro: Can set up a connection to lastfm.com
[21:49] <Chousuke> Ongaku: I'm not really sure how it works.
[21:49] <wick3dbluntz420> samba
[21:49] <Chousuke> !samba | Ongaku

[21:49] <Ongaku> i have samba i think
[21:49] <stefg> waterloo_sunset: but first checking glxinfo | grep direct might be a shortcut
[21:50] <Judg3_Dr34D> !nvidia
[21:50] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[21:50] <Chousuke> Ongaku: it's in all versions of ubuntu, though.
[21:50] <kintaro> easytarget: and possibly download covers etc. I'll check out what Amarok can do, thanks
[21:51] <Ongaku> chousuke: ah cool, he has a firewall and stuff but I can work around that...just need to disable it and connect to the network
[21:51] <easytarget> kintaro: amarok has all kinds of plugins. for songtext. think also for covers..

[21:53] <mediabuntu> can any one show me  how to transfer files with ssh . I cant find what im looking for on google.
[21:54] <fedu> devo allargare la partizione come si fa?
[21:54] <godless> mediabuntu:  you could set up a shared folder with sshfs...
[21:54] <stefg> mediabuntu: man scp .... or use sshfs if you want to mount remote dirs
[21:54] <easytarget> mediabuntu: scp <username>@<host>:/directory ...
[21:54] <Ongaku> should samba just work or do i have to configure it all?
[21:54] <cleaton> !sftp

[21:54] <livingdaylight> anyone use deskbar? does it rock? or does it suck compared to katapult?
[21:54] <easytarget> !scp
[21:54] <ubotu> SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/
[21:54] <stefg> !info sshfs
[21:54] <ubotu> sshfs: filesystem client based on SSH File Transfer Protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7-2.1 (gutsy), package size 34 kB, installed size 120 kB

[21:57] <godless> stefg:  It's .. er.. celeron 1.5 gig on a mobile via motherboard...
[21:57] <easytarget> osmosis_: gdb?
[21:58] <osmosis_> i have no idea
[21:58] <amias> preglow, i think it does mail notification
[21:58] <osmosis_> easytarget:   this page explains for edgy, but not for gutsy.  http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces
[21:58] <preglow> amias: yeah, but i don't run evolution, i use tbird
[21:58] <MaDeX> whats terminal command to stop X server
[21:58] <waterloo_sunset> stefg: couldn't find anythin in that.....read in the forums that i shud be lookin for .xsession-errors .....what r these
[21:58] <easytarget> osmosis_: sorry, cant help you there.
[21:58] <stefg> godless: so try amias' advice to see if you get any meaningful debug output, it could be some irq or acpi trouble. Are you using the aletrnate or desktop install
[21:58] <MaDeX>  You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before
[21:58] <MaDeX>          installing.  For further details, please see the section INSTALLING
[21:58] <MaDeX>          THE NVIDIA DRIVER in the README available on the Linux driver
[21:58] <MaDeX>          download page at www.nvidia.com.

[22:00] <MaDeX> how do i stop x server :/
[22:00] <wick3dbluntz420> killall gdm
[22:00] <godless> stefg:  No luck changing console, I think it's crashed. Just black screen with two grey squares.. like the ansi 'block' character (if you know what I mean)... same every time. I have disabled acpi. Alternate install CD
[22:00] <stefg> waterloo_sunset: does glxinfo | grep direct say 'yes' ?
[22:00] <amias> preglow, find their PID with top and hook-in to them with 'strace -p PID' to see whats going on
[22:00] <stefg> !boot | godless
[22:00] <ubotu> godless: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto

[22:15] <SochBAT> hello guys
[22:15] <LjL> livingdaylight: by adding it to the panel (right click on panel, Add Applet), i guess

[22:16] <livingdaylight> LjL: right... ok
[22:16] <SochBAT> so i've got a problem writing to disk
[22:16] <MaDeX> ljl you got a min :D

[22:16] <SochBAT> every time i try to write, it's always incomplete

[22:17] <usrl> cfedde: I don't know of any other irc clients that fully support mIRC scripting
[22:17] <SochBAT> booboo, whats' wrong with your GUI
[22:17] <cfedde> usrl: could be.
[22:17] <jhnthn> riaal: I'm not sure but you might have to change /etc/hosts aswell

[22:24] <dandel> I'm needing to find out how to remove the spare Xorg instance that automatically starts on my box, so i have only 1 Xorg proccess.
[22:24] <MaDeX> but thanks mate
[22:24] <icefyre> I have an annoying issue with my ATI card, gusty won't hibernate or suspend because of a clash with the restricted ati driver
[22:24] <robi1> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run dpkg --etc.
[22:24] <wick3dbluntz420> np
[22:24] <icefyre> I figure if I kill X
[22:24] <iTouchU> why do u guys reconfigure and reinstall the kernel.
[22:24] <LjL> MaDeX, well, not entirely sure i completely do... now you installed the nvidia.com driver, or not?
[22:24] <icefyre> I may have a chance at suspending
[22:24] <wick3dbluntz420> its really simple to just check the box in restricted tho
[22:24] <robi1> how do i just deinstall it, get rid of it?
[22:24] <wick3dbluntz420> lmao
[22:24] <cleaton> Guillem, can't you just put a big cashe and then press pause? it shoud record everything to the cash then so you can coninue when you press play
[22:24] <VoX> icefyre: only way to stop X is go to a terminal, and run  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[22:25] <godless> stefg:  Well, those boot options didn't work, but I did notice that (as I kinda feared) it's while configuring xserver-org that the install fails
[22:25] <robi1> cud someone please help? :(

[22:29] <bung__> hi, im compiling something, and it says libglade-2.0 not found... i have checked synaptic and it IS installed (further i reinstalled it) ... do i need to reboot or any other tips?
[22:30] <vas> hey i am running ubuntu gutsy 7.10 am i running KDE or GNOME
[22:30] <LjL> Oli``, it definitely can. if you have GNOME, for instance, loading a KDE application means loading all the various KDE libraries. as long as you're not out of RAM, though, it's unlikely that performance (aside from application startup time) will be very significantly affected. Xfce, on the other hand, uses GTK like GNOME, so they should play well together
[22:30] <wick3dbluntz420> bung check version
[22:30] <bung__> wick3dbluntz420, ok
[22:30] <kst-> I can't hear any beeps on my Acer notebook, neither the echo -e "\a" thing nor using the "beep" application... any ideas? pc speaker volume is UP
[22:30] <mark484> moved ubuntu-hd to new machine.  Now no audio.  How to reconfig/reprobe?  Thx!
[22:31] <bung__> wick3dbluntz420, glade3 3.4.0
[22:31] <vas> ????
[22:31] <Oli``> LjL: d'oh... I love gnome but I can't live without amarok and ktorrent =( oh well... I've 2 gigs of ram so hopefully it won't be too much of an issue
[22:31] <vas> anyone
 thanks ..but they are a bit expensive(250 bucks) ...to study online...i want to self study......
[22:32] <Guillem> cleaton, thanks very much indeed. The pause trick is enough, event without specifying any cache size!!!
[22:32] <head3r> kilowatt, try php5-dev
[22:32] <LjL> Oli``: two gigs is plenty, you shouldn't have too much of an issue. you should just expect amarok to take a bit longer to start than a GNOME application. ever given a try to actual KDE, though?
[22:32] <akorn> anybody know how to check your LAN IP in ubuntu?
[22:32] <wick3dbluntz420> bung error says you need 2.0
[22:32] <kilowatt> uhm ok
[22:32] <jakil> hi
[22:32] <zaxius> i didn't know xchat had perl scripting...that's pretty cool. i like perl way better, i just have all these mirc scripts that are already written from my windows days heh
[22:32] <Guillem> cleaton, the easiest choice is usually the one :P
[22:32] <MaDeX> ljl ok i've restarted
[22:32] <Bung> wick3dbluntz420, good point
[22:32] <astx813> Why can't I use super with another key for keyboard shortcuts.  I'm trying to make Super-L lock my desktop, but it won't take.
[22:33] <cvance> I am having a problem with wireless after suspend/resume
[22:33] <Oli``> Coincidentally, a while ago I saw a blog post about setting Ubuntu up to use 2gigs (or more) of RAM better than it does as standard but I can't remember where that was or if it was even true... Anyone know what I'm on about?
[22:33] <vas_> hey I am running Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10 default out of the box, do I have GNOME or KDE running? Sorry I am a newb looking for themes? or GTK or something... help... please
[22:33] <akorn> Hey zaxius do you konw what the ipconfig equivalent is in ubuntu? i want to know what my lan ip is
[22:33] <LjL> MaDeX, so you say you've done many thing... can you summarize *what* you've done? i can't really work on it unless i know
[22:33] <cvance> After I resume, sometimes wireless works, and sometimes it does not. I have an ipw3945 card.
[22:33] <wick3dbluntz420> could try editing the makefile by hand...hehe
[22:33] <vas> or compiz?
[22:33] <gnr> it didn't install security updates as i wasn't connected to the internet at the time? how do i do this manually?
[22:33] <zaxius> ±akorn±: ifconfig?
[22:33] <astx813> I've tried setting Super is mapped to the Win keys, but still no dice.  Meanwhile Super-E still works for Expose.
[22:33] <kilowatt> the error is the same, head3r
[22:33] <MaDeX> ljl im not too sure, lets start off as if I haven't
[22:33] <wick3dbluntz420> but thats a last resort
[22:33] <cleaton> Guillem, a cheap delay hack XD
[22:34] <watsoncj> vas: you are most likely running gnome
[22:34] <akorn> zaxius you're a genious! haha thanks
[22:34] <LjL> MaDeX, at least, just tell me if you have installed stuff from nvidia.com or not
[22:34] <MaDeX> I think I have
[22:34] <MaDeX> ljl is there a way to remove
[22:34] <zaxius> wow my nick completer doesn't even work in mirc
[22:34] <LjL> MaDeX: then you imperatively need to uninstall it
[22:34] <vas> watsoncj: can you explain the difference and stuff? I am running compiz effefts, I think... can you enlighten me on KDE GNOME GTK Compiz somewhat?
[22:34] <mark484> Help.  How to reconfig/reprobe audio h/w?
[22:35] <LjL> MaDeX, i don't know, haven't you checked before installing it? that's why you should never install stuff not from the repositories, unless you know very well what you're doing: you can't necessarily remove it.
[22:35] <sokkerplayer92> Hello.
[22:35] <zaxius> back to xchat, mirc was a failed experiment
[22:35] <fblade1987> can anoyone help I'm using a script that allows to me to securely ssh to a unix desktop at uni but when i run it i get an error couldn't set locale correctly
[22:35] <fblade1987> what could the problme be?
[22:36] <LjL> MaDeX, doesn't the nvidia installer script have an uninstall option?
[22:36] <cvance> fblade pastebin your script
[22:36] <MaDeX> ljl, shall i re-install
[22:36] <MaDeX> unbuntu
[22:36] <watsoncj> vas: sure. gnome and kde are both called window managers. They provide things like the menu panels, desktop and system tray.
[22:36] <cvance> i assume you are using keys
[22:36] <sokkerplayer92> hey um... can someone mayb help me out wiht the problem i have.
[22:36] <gnr> also i cant enable nvidia accelerated gfx driver it says "the software source for the package "nvidia-glx-new" is not enabled... "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new" comes up with "package .... is not available,but is referred to by another package.
[22:36] <sokkerplayer92> i have an ati 9550 (should be able 2 handle max graphics put out by linux also runs gr8 with vista) but uh, when i try enabling the compiz feature of ubuntu 7.10 it just says it cant be applied and no error code or actuall error
[22:36] <watsoncj> vas: they also handle the decorating of the windows
[22:36] <Guillem> cleaton, the match is over... so I cannot check... Let's see the next weekend...
[22:36] <osxdude> Brb again
[22:36] <LjL> !info nvidia-glx-new | gnr

[22:36] <vas> watsoncj: its one or the other, not both at the same time right?
[22:36] <head3r> kilowatt, oops sorry, certainly php4-dev
[22:36] <LjL> gnr, do you have restricted enabled in your /etc/apt/sources.list? are you on gutsy?
[22:37] <unikon> Anyone know how to fix the notify list from dissapearing after every reboot i am using Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy with Xchat version 2.8.4
[22:37] <watsoncj> vas: yes thats right
[22:37] <wick3dbluntz420> compiz is beta people

[22:37] <TB> I partitioned my HD with 40 gigs of EXT3 and left the rest unpartitioned thinking that I was going to use XP as my primary OS, but since I realized how much ubuntu rocks, I want to have my EXT3 partition fill most of my hard drive and leave 40 gigs for windows....is it possible to resize or should I reinstall unbuntu?
[22:37] <cleaton> Guillem, ok :P hope it will work, in theory it should work atleast :P
[22:37] <LjL> MaDeX, if there's no way to uninstall the nvidia.com driver, yes, you may want to reinstall ubuntu
[22:37] <MaDeX> kk
[22:37] <Cpudan80> TB: you can resize
[22:37] <TB> okay
[22:37] <MaDeX> ljl be back in bit - and thanks your being a good sport :)
[22:37] <fblade1987> there we go http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43713/
[22:37] <Cpudan80> TB: use gparted
[22:37] <jbinder> sokkerplayer92: Hi.
[22:38] <sokkerplayer92> jbinder:yo
[22:38] <TB> is it better to reinstall or is this okay?
[22:38] <zaxius> so how do i use the perl scripting feature of xchat?
[22:38] <vas> watsoncj: how does GTK tie into either of those? I beleive I have GNOME running, because that is default for Gutsy correct?
[22:38] <TB> I remember partition magic took like 3 years to do it
[22:38] <zaxius> i don't feel like rtfm
[22:38] <jbinder> sokkerplayer92: State your problem.
[22:38] <jbinder> Lol.
[22:38] <watsoncj> vas: compiz usually runs on gnome but I think it will work on kde as well. It is responsible for giving the flashy eyecandy like wobbly windows and drop shadows
[22:38] <kilowatt> but i've installed the 5.2
[22:38] <sokkerplayer92> Lol, I already did.
[22:38] <sokkerplayer92> :(
[22:38] <Guillem> cleaton, the thing works, it is just I don't know how hard it will be to syncronize the both emissions :P I guess that not too much and that I will be able to adjust the audio with the <- -> keys...
[22:39] <TB> Cpudan80:  does it take forever like partition magic does?
[22:39] <watsoncj> vas: GTK is the library that gives you the buttons and scrollbars and windows (but not the window decorations)
[22:39] <kilowatt> i've done a separate installation of php for php-gtk
[22:39] <kilowatt> php-gtk2 sorry
[22:39] <Cpudan80> TB: yes
[22:39] <Cpudan80> TB: how big is the disk?
[22:39] <TB> 150 gb
[22:39] <cleaton> Guillem, hehe :P there is probably some technique you could use to get it right ;)
[22:39] <astx813> Has anyone successfully mapped Super-L (or Win-L) to lock X?
[22:39] <wick3dbluntz420> compiz-beryl is merged and is still beta
[22:39] <Cpudan80> TB: it might be faster to just reinstall
[22:39] <TB> okay.  Thank you
[22:40] <fblade1987> anyone figure the problem out?
[22:40] <watsoncj> vas: yes gnome is the default for Ubuntu
[22:40] <head3r> kilowatt, ok, but the file "zend_language_parser.h" is missing, and this file is in the php4-dev package, that's the only thing i can tell you :(
[22:40] <jbinder> sokkerplayer92: What was your problem?
[22:40] <TB> also, what's the best file system for performance?
[22:40] <jbinder> Hit up enter and repaste it.
[22:41] <eZtaR> TB-> ext2
[22:41] <Guillem> cleaton, I will have to play harder than the football players themselves :P
[22:41] <watsoncj> vas: there is a Kubuntu project that comes with KDE
[22:41] <TB> okay
[22:41] <kilowatt> ok i understand
[22:41] <eZtaR> They still use it as a standard to benchmark hdds
[22:41] <cleaton> Guillem, yes xD
[22:41] <TB> awesome
[22:41] <Guillem> cleaton, OK, time to go to bed. Thanks for your help!
[22:41] <cleaton> ok cya =)
[22:41] <wick3dbluntz420> sure but ext2 is very ez to corrupt
[22:42] <TB> well I'm only interested in performance
[22:42] <justin420> can anybody tell me if when you sudo modprobe nvidia_new does it actually load nvidia_new or is that just a symbolic link to the nvidia module? i have nvidia-glx-new package installed
[22:42] <TB> since i have IDE
[22:42] <TB> and not SATA
[22:42] <sokkerplayer92> jbinder: I tryed enbleing compiz well the graphics that come preinstalled in ubuntu 7.10 wiht an ati graphics card except when I try enabling it, it just says it failed and gives not problems or anything.
[22:42] <head3r> kilowatt, what are you trying to install ? perhaps there is a more recent version, which can be built with php5 ...
[22:43] <wick3dbluntz420> just do backups

[22:53] <watsoncj> mediabuntu: you may want to remove .ssh/id_rsa and .ss/id_rsa.pub and start over
[22:53] <ader10> How do I get the keys along the top of my keyboard to function? (the mute key, the volume up/down keys, the calculator key, etc)
[22:53] <MattJ> mediabuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto#head-1ff9e61cfd81e9f741920b6920af8a85f7bddb30
[22:53] <mediabuntu> port 22: Connection refused
[22:53] <aran> header yes.  [7.10]
[22:53] <mediabuntu> i use a diffrent port :)
[22:54] <watsoncj> mediabuntu: did you install openssh-server on the remote machine?
[22:54] <waterloo_sunset> grrrrrr, now when i try to enable desktop effects, it says "composite extension not available"
[22:54] <wick3dbluntz420> justin420 you copy that?
[22:54] <zaxius> does anyone here write their own xchat perl scripts?
[22:54] <owentaktatie_> looking for home
[22:54] <fblade1987> can anoyone help I'm using a script that allows to me to securely ssh to a unix desktop at uni but when i run it i get an error couldn't set locale correctly
[22:54] <owentaktatie_> where is the help newbies room
[22:54] <mediabuntu> watsoncj: yes i have been using it :P
[22:54] <waterloo_sunset> so i disable composite to get 3d working, but compiz still won't work
[22:54] <fblade1987> there script is here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43713/

[22:55] <ieee802> hi someone know if it is possible to change default hash algorithm that's used to check users passwords?
[22:55] <ader10> How do I get the keys along the top of my keyboard to function? (the mute key, the volume up/down keys, the calculator key, etc)
[22:55] <mediabuntu> watsoncj: yeh
[22:55] <head3r> aran, so compiz is already install, you just have to install compizconfig-settings-manager (sudo apt-get install) and then go to "System->Preferences->Appearence"
[22:56] <ieee802> ader10:  if they don't work automatically press one of them and dmesg
[22:56] <ieee802> you'll find the keycode
[22:56] <mediabuntu> so will it be ssh-copy-id -P  and the *port number here
[22:56] <jannen> must say I like the epihpany browser:)
[22:56] <wick3dbluntz420> ader10 go system prefs keyboard and see if yours is listed
[22:56] <ieee802> then insert keycode in keyboard shortcuts
[22:56] <wick3dbluntz420> if not
[22:56] <wick3dbluntz420> xbindkeys may do it
[22:57] <hexd> i got beryl running on ubuntu 7.10 with the latest nvidia driver and there is no minimize, maximize, or close buttons on my windows?

[22:57] <ieee802> hexd:  sudo apt-get install emerald
[22:57] <jeyk> anyone got fglrx working/
[22:57] <watsoncj> mediabuntu: I don't think the ssh-copy-id will support a different port. You might need to do it manually. Try 'scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@host:.ssh/authorized_keys'
[22:57] <wick3dbluntz420> ieee802 was helping
[22:57] <ieee802> then emerald --replace &
[22:57] <mediabuntu> we have a error http://pastebin.com/m6b7b5a49
[22:57] <hexd> ok
[22:57] <head3r> aran, sorry "System->Preferences->Appearence " and then the "visual effects" tab ...

[23:07] <ader10> astx813: I'm in xfce, but xubuntu refuses to help me
[23:07] <FastZ> K|NgGh0sT: fstab has nothing to do with verifying that drives "exist"...all fstab does is allow for filesystems to be automatically mounted at boot

[23:10] <ader10> astx813: I have it
[23:10] <FastZ> mmjack: you could have did "lspci" from a linux command line to find out what model video card you have
[23:11] <ader10> astx813: Use X configuration is checked now and that grays out the rest

[23:13] <FastZ> mmjack: I'm pretty sure if you're running Vista on a newer machine, you're probably not running a legacy video card
[23:13] <Mr680x0> it has something to do with xorg.conf I remember
