[03:17] <AMAG> Apparently the fdisk on it doesn't work with large disks, nor does the partitioning component of the text menu system
[03:17] <Fonzy> comes up with Access Point: Invalid still
[03:17] <CyberCod> can you take key off temporarily?
[03:17] <onats> fonzy, what seems to be the problem?
[03:17] <Fonzy> I'll be disconnected from this internet for a second then :p
[03:17] <pirate-king> neo you get your drivers to work?
[03:18] <CyberCod> we'll still be here
[03:18] <neo_> Yep.
[03:18] <Fonzy> alright, back in a second
[03:18] <pirate-king> cool
[03:18] <neo_> I get the nvidia logo, so that supposedly means they are working.
[03:18] <AMAG> So I finally partitioned kinda ghetto, created filesystems, mounted them; and after EVERY SINGLE STEP in the menu system it unmounts all my filesystems and tries to force me into the partitioning tool again
[03:18] <pirate-king> yeah you can disable that logo
[03:19] <Fonzy> ok
[03:19] <dreckslord> zzz_ i compiled it (sudo ./make)
[03:19] <Fonzy> should work now?
[03:19] <neo_> It jsut doesn't detect my other monitor.
[03:19] <Fonzy> ok
[03:19] <CyberCod> Fonzy:  you back?
[03:19] <dreckslord> what is my next step?
[03:19] <Fonzy> yep
[03:19] <CyberCod> try to connect to it
[03:19] <Fonzy> still nothin
[03:19] <neo_> Oh well, thanks for the help guys...I'm sure I'll be back soon with some other problem after I solve this one :)
[03:19] <CyberCod> ok, you try   sudo iwconfig essid any?
[03:19] <zzz_> dreckslord: Do the following under ipw2200's extracted directory. (ipw2200-1.2.1) make IEEE80211_INC="directory of ieee80211"
[03:19] <Fonzy> yes
[03:19] <Fonzy> it now says

[03:22] <silvertip257> I'm trying to boot off of a LiveCD and I get the message about needing a system disk - I know it's b/c of my DVD/CD drive being on the same PATA cable as my primary hd, but idk why it errors like that - help please? and thanks
[03:23] <zzz_> dreckslord: can you paste the errors into a pastebin service?
[03:23] <ReK_> is there any way to disable the fsck on boot?
[03:23] <variant> silvertip257: the POST routine gives you the error?
[03:23] <TekNoLyZe> hi everyone
[03:23] <variant> ReK_: yes, open /etc/fstab and make two 0 0 at the end of the line you want to disable disk checking on
[03:23] <dreckslord> i think so but i dont know whats a pastebin service?
[03:23] <LjL> Ubotu, tell dreckslord about pastebin | dreckslord, see the private message from Ubotu

[03:24] <TekNoLyZe> I'm having problems with grub and HDD connected to a ITE m/b controller; it won't boot - error 21; installed /dev/hdh (WD 40 GB HDD) and grub on /dev/hda (Maxtor 160 GB)
[03:24] <variant> bonez: just ask argh
[03:24] <bonez> I just installed ubuntu and have never messed with linux.......do I need a virus scanner?
[03:24] <zzz_> dreckslord: paste the errors into the form in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and let me know the url.
[03:24] <bonez> sorry
[03:24] <CyberCod> sudo iwconfig wlan0 rts 1000 frag 1200
[03:24] <LjL> bonez: i'd say no, but opinions will vary...
[03:24] <LjL> Ubotu, tell bonez about virus | bonez, see the private message from Ubotu
[03:24] <variant> bonez: only if you want to be paranoid or if you want to use it to scan your windows partition
[03:24] <Fonzy> oki 1 mom
[03:24] <Cyan> hi guys
[03:24] <bonez> thanks
[03:25] <variant> bonez: clamav is an excellent scanner..

[03:25] <dreckslord> zzz_ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4116/
[03:25] <LjL> variant: excellent? what about that guy who couldn't boot anymore because his kernel (or initrd, or something) had been quarantined? :P
[03:25] <Fonzy> hm
[03:25] <variant> LjL: lol! really?
[03:25] <Fonzy> the essid is no longer off/any
[03:25] <silvertip257> yes variant:  it wont boot to anything
[03:25] <Fonzy> but the RTS & fragment have changed
[03:25] <dreckslord> some parts are german zzz_ if you need them to understand i will translate it
[03:25] <CyberCod> and access point?
[03:26] <LjL> variant: well, he was here few days ago, he was talking about klamav but i suppose that's a frontend
[03:26] <Fonzy> just "
[03:26] <Fonzy> ""
[03:26] <Fonzy> *""
[03:26] <variant> silvertip257: take a look in your bios and see if you can change the boot priority, disable the hard disk entirely (ubuntu should still be able to see it)

[03:26] <Fonzy> ESSID: ""
[03:26] <variant> LjL: ah..

[03:26] <Fonzy> yes?
[03:26] <sirius>
[03:27] <CyberCod> now try     sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid <your essid>    again
[03:27] <Fonzy> ok
[03:27] <sirius> o
[03:27] <silvertip257> but variant:  this hdd has winblows on it b/c of my parents and it wont boot up when both are on the same cable too
[03:27] <sirius> r u setting up w/ wifi??
[03:27] <LjL> Fonzy: try to keep stuff in one line if you can =) you looked like line noise :P
[03:27] <variant> silvertip257: once you have installed ubuntu along side windows you can set the hard disk back to being hte boot device
[03:27] <dreckslord> zzz_ if the meaning of "directory of ieee80211" the directory of the extracted parts means, yes
[03:27] <variant> the*
[03:27] <Fonzy> :( still nothing
[03:28] <zzz_> dreckslord: Is there a file named ipw2200.ko in ipw2200-1.2.1 directory?
[03:28] <CyberCod> ok, sorry I couldn't help, perhaps someone else here can, those commands worked for me the other day
[03:28] <silvertip257> umm variant ok ... i'm not sure what to do - only b/c if winblows cant boot now w/ both on the same EIDE PATA cable, then wtf do i do later?
[03:28] <Fonzy> alright thanks anyways
[03:28] <dreckslord> yes
[03:28] <variant> silvertip257: you mean the cdrom and hd on the same cable?
[03:29] <silvertip257> yes variant
[03:29] <silvertip257> they have to be so i can fit my drives
[03:29] <zzz_> Okay, then try the following: copy that file to /lib/modules/"kernel version"/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko
[03:29] <CyberCod> Fonzy, i take it the card was not installed naturally?  I've see a couple linksys cards supported automatically
[03:29] <silvertip257> and the cheap ass who built it only gave us one EIDE PATA cable to begin w/
[03:29] <variant> silvertip257: do what i said.. disable the hd in the bios, install ubuntu, undisable the hd and you can boot to windows and ubuntu
[03:30] <silvertip257> variant:  are puttin money on the line! =O
[03:30] <bonez> variant even if i got a scanner i wouldn't know how to install it ...but thanks for the info'
[03:30] <variant> silvertip257: lol, it's nothing serious
[03:30] <variant> bonez: apt-get install clamav
[03:30] <silvertip257> i'm playin variant
[03:30] <variant> bonez: you should have a firewall though. i reccomend firestarter
[03:31] <dreckslord> zzz_ done
[03:31] <bonez> variant thank you
[03:31] <zzz_> Okay. Have typed sudo make install under ieee80211 directory?
[03:31] <dreckslord> zzz_ no
[03:31] <dreckslord> ony make
[03:32] <dreckslord> only*
[03:32] <zzz_> dreckslord: okay, then type "sudo make install" under the ieee80211 directory
[03:32] <dreckslord> done
[03:32] <variant> dreckslord: make on it's own builds it, you could load the module from there but make install will copy it to the correct location
[03:32] <dreckslord> no errors
[03:33] <onats> how do i know my kernel version?
[03:33] <zzz_> Okay. Now try the following: "rmmod ipw2200; depmod; modprobe ipw2200"
[03:33] <sirius> uname -a

[03:33] <knovak> My ubuntu (6.10) keeps freezing on boot now. Even in recovery mode.
[03:33] <variant> knovak: what does it say?
[03:33] <DavidHKMrPowers> actually, for a web site like sourceforge, how many servers are needed to host it?
[03:33] <silvertip257> variant:  HDD is set to MA w/ SL present & DVD/CD is set to SL, but HDD is on the <GRAY> EIDE connector & DVD/CD is on the <BLACK> EIDE connector - as far as I know gray=slave & black=primary, but how to override the EIDE crap???
[03:33] <knovak> stops after it detects my DVD drive
[03:33] <CyberCod> knovak  power failure?
[03:34] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: that depends if you include the mirrors or not
[03:34] <knovak> don't think so
[03:34] <knovak> umm.. not sure what it says
[03:34] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: probably not so many but with a lot of bandwidth and a large SAN
[03:34] <knovak> in recovery mode it says something about scsi and my DVD drive (toshiba odd-dvd)
[03:34] <DavidHKMrPowers> only the sourceforge, not including the mirrors
[03:34] <knovak> I mean, it loaded fine last night
[03:34] <CyberCod> knovak:  i meant did you have a power failure recently?
[03:34] <DavidHKMrPowers> SAN?

[03:35] <newubuntu> who can help me to install ati drivers?
[03:35] <zzz_> dreckslord: Okay. Try "depmod; modprobe ipw2200"
[03:35] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : in what situation is a web site need to have more than one server?
[03:35] <knovak> right now im getting Ubuntu 6.06 ISO and I plan to reinstall becuase I'm just pissed off
[03:35] <DavidHKMrPowers> is/does
[03:35] <newubuntu> !ati
[03:35] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:36] <knovak> I've spent my entire weekend working on my computer and now its just freezing
[03:36] <dreckslord> sudo modprobe ipw2200

[03:36] <CyberCod> knovak... i know the feeling,
[03:36] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: well, if you want to have it load balanced is one situation.. when the maximum number of sessions you server can handle reasonably i sless than the total number expected
[03:36] <knovak> I know im probably being stupid by doing this, but meh
[03:36] <zzz_> dreckslord: what does the end of "dmesg" show? Any errors?
[03:36] <knovak> I read somewhere that 6.10 has more bugs than 6.06
[03:36] <CyberCod> knovak:  much as I hate to say it, re-installing would probably be faster than troubleshooting
[03:37] <CyberCod> though you might try fsck from the live disk
[03:37] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: a well optimised server with gnu/linux you could expect to handle 1000's of sessoins.. depends on hardware and network of course
[03:37] <knovak> I mean, luckily I didnt have that much on my system since i just redid it yesterday
[03:37] <Jakeyfu_> dapper runs better than eft
[03:37] <knovak> just need to reconfigure my video drivers
[03:37] <dreckslord> zzz_ i paste it in pastebin ok?
[03:37] <zzz_> dreckslord: okay.
[03:37] <CyberCod> knovak, what vid card you got?
[03:37] <Deep7> has anyone gotten 5.1 surround to work in Edgy using a CK804?
[03:37] <knovak> NVidia Geforce MX 4000
[03:37] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : no. of sessions depends on RAM?
[03:38] <knovak> I've set it up so many times now in Ubuntu I can do it while sleeping
[03:38] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: in a big way yes.. cpu also
[03:38] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: depends what kind of stuff the serv3er is doing also..
[03:38] <dreckslord> zzz_ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4118/
[03:38] <Dregin> is it possible to use my lifecam VX-6000 with ubuntu yet, does anyone know?
[03:39] <CyberCod> knovak:  check pm
[03:39] <knovak> yup
[03:39] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : sometimes a web site is slow or does not response, is it mainly related to bandwidth ?
[03:40] <DavidHKMrPowers> do you concern some other problems such as the linux may hang?
[03:40] <zzz_> dreckslord: are you sure that "make install" under ieee80211 directory worked flawlessly? There is something wrong.
[03:40] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: it can be any number of reasons.. if it's a popular server it could be struggleing to cope with the load.. they might have plenty of bandwidth to spare though.. or theother way round
[03:40] <dreckslord> zzz_ i didnt saw any errors i can do it again if you want
[03:41] <whoppix> hey all:) im just wondering if there is a special reason, why "libpoe-perl" is in version 0.3203 in edgy, while the official stable version is 0.9917? (CPAN) the old version in the repositorys is kinda outdated, the api has changed, and its not really compatible to the new POE modules.
[03:41] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : if bandwidth is not a problem, would a web site does not response?
[03:41] <DavidHKMrPowers> sorry wrong grammar
[03:41] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: what do you mean? I'm not an expert anyway..
[03:42] <imc_> Squid problem: I have squid running and the tunnel I create to the server is sudo ssh -C -c blowfish -L 8080:<IP_ADDRESS>:8080<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- but when I surf to a page I'm getting: "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_3.9p1 Protocol mismatch."
[03:42] <DavidHKMrPowers> I want to set up an email server for a college but this server cannot be down anyway
[03:42] <zzz_> dreckslord: What does "make check_old" under ieee80211-1.2.16 show?
[03:42] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: ah..
[03:42] <DavidHKMrPowers> what do I need to do to ensure this? variant

[03:42] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:42] <dreckslord> zzz_ the want to delete some old files
[03:43] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: you can't ensure 100% uptime.. you can do your best but something always happens.. my advice is to pay someone else to do it (oneandone.co.uk for example)
[03:43] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: then blame them when it goes wrong
[03:43] <alecjw> hi. is there any way of gettign winblows' original bootloader back after it's been overwritten in grub?
[03:43] <onats> how long would it take to patch/compile a later kernel?
[03:43] <zzz_> dreckslord: okay, let it delete them. and type "make ; make install"
[03:44] <dreckslord> zzz_ rm -rf ieee802 ; tar -xzf ieee802.tar.gz make; make install no errors
[03:44] <whoppix> alecjw, insert a win 98 bootdisk, enter the command prompt, type FDISK /MBR
[03:44] <dreckslord> i did the same with ipw 2200
[03:44] <dreckslord> no errors
[03:44] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : okok :D
[03:44] <alecjw> whoppix, thanks. btw, i'm not doing this myself, it's for a friend
[03:44] <alecjw> in case hed does wnat ot remove ubuntu
[03:44] <zzz_> dreckslord: did you "make install" under ipw2200-1.2.1 ?
[03:45] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: seriously.. an email server is a lot of work to set up and manage.. pay someone else to do it
[03:45] <jrib> alecjw: you can use an xp disk too, then it's "fixmbr" in the recovery console of the install disk
[03:45] <whoppix> alecjw, why would he want to remove grub anyway? its way better than the win bootloader
[03:45] <dreckslord> yes no errors
[03:45] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: it's not that expensive (it is expensive to set up and host your self though)
[03:45] <mindstate> im trying to play this .avi file says i need a vp7 codec to play it, anyone have any info on this ?
[03:45] <whoppix> alecjw, and if he dont want linux/whatever anymore he can just kick it out
[03:45] <zzz_> dreckslord: Okay, then "depmod; modprobe ipw2200" should work.
[03:45] <alecjw> whoppix, in case he wants to get rid of ubuntu (which he won't)
[03:45] <variant> im off
[03:45] <jrib> mindstate: no but I can tell you what mplayer does with it if the file is online somewhere
[03:46] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : thx :D
[03:46] <andy> anyone knows a good php editor?

[03:47] <ubuntu> hay all how does one mount a linux parititon rw in a live cd?
[03:48] <dreckslord> there is no problem with giving you the sshd rights
[03:48] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : yes.. but it's actually quite expensive to pay someone to do this....
[03:48] <whoppix> ubuntu, you could pass "mount" the options "-o RW"
[03:48] <rafa> hello
[03:48] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: not in this country..
[03:48] <dwhsix> this should be easy: how do I flush the dns cache?
[03:48] <zzz_> dreckslord: what is your IP address, can you query me and give me the login details?
[03:48] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : much expensive than hosting a site, as what I know...
[03:48] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: like 15 - 20 euro a month
[03:48] <ubuntu> whoppix so would it be mount -o RW /dev/sda6 /media/locatioon ?
[03:49] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: seriously, take a look at the services offered by oneandone.co.uk
[03:49] <dreckslord> yes wait a moment im not sure if ssh is installed
[03:49] <whoppix> ubuntu, mh, put the -o at the end
[03:49] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : yes I've read it :D
[03:49] <DavidHKMrPowers> 1and1
[03:49] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: it's a lot cheaper than buying your own server, buying bandwidth and fixing hardware when it fails.. not to mention keeping backups etc
[03:49] <ubuntu> so  mount -o /dev/sda6 /media/location RW
[03:49] <ubuntu> oh doh!
[03:50] <ctothej> The installation of Blackdown java overwrote my default java to 1.4, how can i change this back? do i have to recreate sym links?
[03:50] <ubuntu> mount RW /dev/sda6 /media/location -o
[03:50] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : i would rent a dedicated server instead of buying one
[03:50] <whoppix> ubuntu, put the RW at the end too and i think it should work.
[03:50] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: if you want, i think you shoudl go for a managed server though seeing as your not that experienced
[03:50] <variant> DavidHKMrPowers: im off, later
[03:50] <paco_> hello
[03:50] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : but I am not sure how many servers are needed in real situation..
[03:50] <DavidHKMrPowers> variant : okok, thx , see you :D

[04:25] <xtknight> Deviad: i should probably have you do some debugging before you try to update your bios.  i just wondered if you had or not since it's the first thing lots of overclockers or enthusiasts do.
[04:25] <Deviad> xtknight: OK, so I need to update the bios. I have already connected the IDE DVD device via an IDE to USB converter

[04:28] <xtknight> yellow: herd 3 is the latest.  you dont need herd 1 if you want herd 3

[04:53] <MUTU> I have a  SATA hard disk, a IDE master and an IDE slave. the SATA is the first in the BIOS list. i'm installing ubuntu on the ide slave. where do i need to install the grub to? by default it says '(hd0)'
[04:54] <blind_gunman> basically i have the Macbook pro 2.16ghz
[04:54] <jnd> Hi, I am trying to instal LTSP on 6.10 and when I do  sudo ltsp-build-client, I get this error: ln: creating symbolic link `/dev/fd' to `/proc/self/fd': File exists. I tried it few times before, first I have other eroor, but even if I delete link /dev/fd I get this...
[04:54] <thug> i saved the file with wget into that path right ? now right click on it so i can extract it (via gui ) no manuall extract .. but the file will become text :)) and its asking me if i want to open it with gedit ;))
[04:54] <EnsignRedshirt> coobra: I guess my (probably naive) question is whether using two monitors on one card requires twice as much graphics card memory, so if I am already maxed out with my current configuration, I can't add a second card. (Obviously, I have no idea how graphics card memory is actually used.)
[04:54] <Randomtime> erUSUL: how would I find out that manufaturer
[04:54] <grndslm> Moniker42:  so your resolution is never 1920x1200 now??
[04:54] <thug> seems like something its getting crazy here ... firefox ? samba ? or the whole ubuntu system ?
[04:55] <EnsignRedshirt> coobra: I meant "...current configuration, I can't add a second *monitor*."
[04:55] <Moniker42> grndslm, what? no.
[04:55] <quaal> hello anyone know how to mount ntfs drives? i'm getting this error message http://pastebin.ca/339383 after I put this fstab line /dev/hdd /mnt/win80 ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
[04:55] <larson9999> hmmm, javaws works for me in kde but not gnome :(
[04:55] <soundray> blind_gunman: I recommend installing edgy i386 for most desktop tasks. There are several install reports available for Macbook Pro.
[04:55] <grndslm> Moniker42:  just in doom3?
[04:55] <thug> so no one say anything about this bloody error ?
[04:55] <MUTU> I have a  SATA hard disk, a IDE master and an IDE slave. the SATA is the first in the BIOS list. i'm installing ubuntu on the ide slave. where do i need to install the grub to? by default it says '(hd0)'
[04:55] <quaal> i'm following this guide http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows
[04:55] <alie> thanks greyghost, skype installed in my pc now
[04:55] <blind_gunman> scoundray: thanks, i will go check it out on google now :)
[04:56] <erUSUL> Randomtime: it is a prebuild computer? which model? maybe the manufacturer of the whole computer is the one that offers the bios upgrade?
[04:56] <pk_butu> buffer I/O error while booting from Ubuntu 6.10 LiveCD
[04:56] <blind_gunman> I actually have anther question. I use program like Photoshop, Flash and Dreamweaver, do they support linux yet?
[04:56] <dimeotane> anyone find that ubuntu has this weird blue window when moving a window movie?
[04:56] <Randomtime> erUSUL: prebuilt time computer
[04:56] <Randomtime> erUSUL: i'll check there site
[04:56] <dimeotane> It's even worse with beryl
[04:56] <xtknight> blind_gunman: you can run photoshop cs2 in wine
[04:57] <soundray> blind_gunman: no, if you want to use these specific programs, stick with Mac OS X
[04:57] <dimeotane> I play a movie in totem and if I move the window around the window becomes a blue rectangle
[04:57] <xtknight> you can also run them under vmware unless you use a color profile for photoshop
[04:57] <Wooksta> is there a good tutorial for getting read-write support with ubuntu for NTFS partitions? (im assuming using NTFS-3g)
[04:57] <blind_gunman> Argh...
[04:57] <xtknight> i used dreamweaver under vmware for quite a while.
[04:57] <xtknight> worked great
[04:57] <soundray> blind_gunman: for web development on Linux, you'd use other programs like gimp, screem, nvu and (shock, horror) emacs
[04:57] <blind_gunman> is there any alternative for those programs?
[04:57] <dimeotane> anyone else have anything like that?
[04:58] <xtknight> dimeotane: the blue is probably the overlay thing.  use a different video renderer like xv
[04:58] <soundray> blind_gunman: what's your motive for installing Ubuntu?
[04:58] <netpython> dimeotane: yes,stop moving the window :-)
[04:58] <grndslm> blind_gunman:  if you like ubuntu, but wanna run other OSes, look into setting up VMware or KVM (dunno if this one's as stable yet, tho)
[04:58] <GreyGhost> dimeotane , me too... never figured it out...
[04:59] <OneOfTheMany> is there anything 'better' than fdisk for formatting and creating partitions?
[04:59] <blind_gunman> soundray: i just want to try it out, i saw a demo on youtube, it seems to kick mac and windows' asses.
[04:59] <erUSUL> grndslm: there's a new (and gpl) kid in the block virtualbox
[04:59] <xtknight> OneOfTheMany: gparted

[04:59] <xtknight> vista bwahaha
[04:59] <xtknight> ;)

[05:00] <EnsignRedshirt> blind_gunman: For photoshop, here are some of the usual linux suspects: gimp, gimpshop, pixel, lightzone (a free linux version is available).  None are perfect... whether they will be suitable depends on your needs.
[05:00] <pk_butu> but failed :-(
[05:00] <OneOfTheMany> jnd: Thanks !
[05:00] <LjL> xtknight: virtualization is fine, actually i'm trying to push virtualbox myself...
[05:00] <blind_gunman> ensighredshirt: are they as good as photoshop?
[05:00] <Moniker42> grndslm, what?
[05:00] <soundray> blind_gunman: it's great to have Windows around (our houses would be dark and stuffy without them)
[05:01] <Moniker42> grndslm, what?
[05:01] <Moniker42> woops
[05:01] <Moniker42> i get this problem with doom 3... it just randomly crashes to the desktop - freezing my mouse pointer (keyboard is still active) and i have to restart X. Also, the resolution of the desktop is the 1600x1200 of the game, whereas my desktop res is normally 1920x1200
[05:01] <grndslm> Moniker42:  is the problem with the gnome desktop's resolution or just doom3's resolution?
[05:01] <fnf> pk_butu: Where did it stop when you didn't use quiet boot option ?
[05:01] <Moniker42> the problem isn't the resolution grndslm
[05:01] <grndslm> Moniker42:  sounds like it's only a problem in the game, which i can't help with
[05:01] <Moniker42> doom 3 crashes
[05:01] <EnsignRedshirt> blind_gunman: I all use Picture Window Pro 3.5 in wine, and it works fine.  "As good as photoshop?"  Well, that's a sensitive question.
[05:01] <xtknight> can someone explain qemu, kqemu, kvm to me and what the differences is?  i'm interested in specifics, like what is each of these and what is their function in getting windows to run in a window on my system.  i know what kvm is (a module in the kernel), however does kvm always use the CPU instructions?  kqemu is accelerated qemu, but does that acceleration always use kvm?  what's up with all this stuff?
[05:02] <grndslm> Moniker42:  then why mention the resolution at all?
[05:02] <netpython> xtknight: google
[05:02] <EnsignRedshirt> blind_gunman: And since I have never used photoshop, I can't answer that.
[05:02] <pk_butu> same..after the initial screen...
[05:02] <xtknight> netpython: same could be said for billions of questions in here...what's the point ??
[05:02] <pk_butu> it gives me the I/O boot error..
[05:02] <soundray> xtknight: here's not a good place to ask. I found that Wikipedia has reams of useful info.
[05:02] <pradeep> how do I lock a package from being upgraded?
[05:02] <Moniker42> grndslm, because the resolution of doom 3, which is 1600x1200 doesn't change to 1920x1200 when the game crashes
[05:03] <jrib> !pinning | pradeep
[05:03] <pk_butu> tried with: pci=noacpi ide=nodma ide=reverse boot option also..

[05:03] <pk_butu> does not seemed to work :-(
[05:04] <fnf> pk_butu: It may happen for some particular devices, in your case it might be caused by the HDD or the optical drive, try disabling each of them.
[05:04] <Moniker42> can anyone help? i get this problem with doom 3... it just randomly crashes to the desktop - freezing my mouse pointer (keyboard is still active) and i have to restart X. Also, the resolution of the desktop is the 1600x1200 of the game, whereas my desktop res is normally 1920x1200
[05:04] <erUSUL> xtknight: qemu (no harware accel) qemu + propietary kernel module (hardware accel; qemu + kvm (harware accel via the virtualization extensions of newer cpus amd venice and intel whatever)
[05:04] <Moniker42> !tsmithe
[05:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tsmithe - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:04] <xtknight> erUSUL: ok so kqemu is not kvm i take it?
[05:05] <erUSUL> xtknight: the propietary kernel module of qemu is not free in either meaning of the word kvm is free
[05:05] <xtknight> erUSUL: kqemu is a proprietary module then, which qemu uses?
[05:05] <LjL> !kqemu | xtknight
[05:05] <ubotu> xtknight: kqemu is non-free kernel module for speeding up the !QEMU virtual machine. Installation instructions can be found at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/KQEmu - see also !qvm86
[05:05] <cherva> anyone having a problem with skype (taskbar indicator not blinking on new massages)

[05:05] <xtknight> thank you that's what i wondered
[05:05] <erUSUL> xtknight: yes
[05:06] <xtknight> and kvm is a fully free kernel module that uses amd-v (pacifica) and intel vt (vanderpool)
[05:06] <SecrethX> Can someone please help me with my printer? lsusb shows it, but CUPS doesnt recognize it :(

[05:11] <fotoflo> soundray: uhm both

[05:18] <soundray> drkm: there are two ways to view Windows shares: 1) Gnome VFS (Places - Connect to Server), and 2) permanent smbfs mounts. For the latter, you need the smbfs package.

[05:21] <frederific> I've just chownd the whole of /usr/bin to myself by mistake, should they all be owned by root? Or is there an undo button? :(
[05:21] <erUSUL> drkm: in kde kioslaves are the equivalent of gnome vfs (more advanced even)
[05:21] <soundray> drkm: substitute the correct uid, gid (run 'id' to check), hostname and share name.
[05:22] <Vuen> GMWeezel: ah. you can edit the scripts and add a command to pause at the end. i don't know of such a command off the top of my head...
[05:22] <SecrethX> Okay, CUPS cant find my printer, nor can hplip toolbox, lsusb shows it as connected, dmesg also shows it as connected, and I dont know what to do!
[05:22] <forgeuk> quaal: good, you'll like it then, you can find it in Synaptic package manager
[05:22] <mqueiros> ok, thanks for the info on partimage on Dapper. I will have another look !
[05:22] <Vuen> GMWeezel: you can also just run those scripts inside a terminal

[05:23] <jrib> pradeep: what does your file look like?
[05:23] <filenotfound> help plz...
[05:23] <erUSUL> drkm: you do not "run" kioslaves programs like konqueror or kate use them to access files in many different ways (over ssh in smb shares in ftp etc...)
[05:23] <pradeep> jrib, Package: ffmpeg \n Pin: version 0.cvs20060823-1
[05:23] <erUSUL> drkm: the same with gnome vfs
[05:24] <Bobsworth> GMWeezel: you can change the terminal settings in Edit > Current Profile > Title and Command
[05:24] <ryan8403> any chance someone might be able to help debug Fedora Directory Server on ubuntu 6.10?
[05:24] <EnsignRedshirt> frederific: And, unless there are exception I don't know about, the files in /usr/bin/ should be owned by root.
[05:24] <soundray> ubotu has gone missing...
[05:24] <OneOfTheMany> im using mdadm to create a raid device - do i name the new device /dev/md0 OR /dev/.static/dev/md0 ?? what's the difference?
[05:24] <jrib> pradeep: how about Pin-Priority?
[05:24] <pradeep> jrib, I didn't specify the priority
[05:24] <GMWeezel> Bobsworth: Thanks; just a found a post on in it in the Ubuntu forums.
[05:24] <drkm> erUSUL: so if I don't run it, how do I use it?
[05:24] <jackson3246> how do I find my IP address in a terminal?
[05:24] <ReK_> anyone know of a good dock program for gnome/gtk?
[05:24] <grndslm> i'm trying to use lvm...but i need to know what's a good size extent for a 600GB volume group that will be holding mostly 1~3GB+ videos, with only 20GB or so going toward 4MB+ songs...  should i allocate the size extents into 256K chunks, 1M chunks, or put the songs somewhere else and use 50M chunks for just the vids??
[05:24] <filenotfound> hello, any1 ever installed ubuntu on HDD that is connected via USB ?
[05:24] <Bobsworth> !ifconfig
[05:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ifconfig - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:24] <soundray> xzk: try 'apt-cache show network-manager'
[05:25] <SpudDogg_> Does anyone know why every time I reboot my machine, I have to reshare all of my shared folders?
[05:25] <soundray> !network-manager | xzk
[05:25] <ubotu> xzk: networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager
[05:25] <Bobsworth> jackson3246: ifconfig
[05:25] <xzk> soundray: I
[05:25] <xtknight> SpudDogg_: your ubuntu machine?  what sharing protocl are you using?  maybe the daemon isn't being started at init
[05:25] <bulmer> filenotfound: yes, on a laptop with external usb hd
[05:25] <jackson3246> Bobsworth: ah yes. thank you@
[05:25] <spuddogg> SpudDogg_, listen to him
[05:25] <SecrethX> Okay, CUPS cant find my printer, nor can hplip toolbox, lsusb shows it as connected, dmesg also shows it as connected, and I dont know what to do!
[05:26] <erUSUL> drkm: i told you programs use it e.g in konqueror afaik you can put 'ftp://ftpserver/path/to/file' and you will browse the ftp server as it was your local hard drive through a kioslave
[05:26] <SpudDogg_> xtknight, im trying to use smb
[05:26] <drkm> erUSUL: yes, but //computer name doesn't work! so how do I connect to a share!?
[05:26] <xtknight> SecrethX: maybe you need to load the ppdev kernel module, or change the Version in pnm2ppa.conf
[05:26] <filenotfound> bulmer> it getting stucked...
[05:27] <xtknight> SpudDogg_: see if the samba service is started at bootup?
[05:27] <bulmer> filenotfound: getting stucked where?
[05:27] <SecrethX> xtknight, where is the conf located?
[05:27] <xzk> soundray: I've tried Network Manager before, it works but it doesn't show me each WiFi spots Signal Strength correctly, it shows them all at 100% strength. It also won't let me connect to my own secured/password WiFi, yet it will connect to my neighbors that isnt secured
[05:27] <jt_a7x_3> Hi
[05:27] <jt_a7x_3> I'm having a little bit of trouble running ubuntu.
[05:27] <SpudDogg_> xtknight, if it is not, how do I set it to start on boot?
[05:27] <pradeep> jrib, I added 'Pin-priority -1', it still offers me an upgrade
[05:27] <jrib> pradeep: try 10001
[05:27] <jrib> erm 1001
[05:27] <grndslm> if i'm storing a whole buncha 1~3GB+ videos, with only 20GB or so going toward 4MB+ songs...  should i allocate the size extents into 256K chunks, 1M chunks, or just move the songs somewhere else and use ~50M chunks for just the vids??
[05:27] <BlueEagle> grndslm: I am guessing here but bigger chuncks = more chunks availible and there would not be any reason to increase chunck size on a drive as small as 600GB as the default chunk size will be plenty. However if you start getting drives that are 600TB you might need to increase the chunk size. As for performance issues I don't know.
[05:28] <nox-Hand> Hey
[05:28] <erUSUL> drkm: in konqueror use smb://win/export (win is the name or ip of the win machine and share the name of the share)
[05:28] <jt_a7x_3> I downloaded the minimal cd, install ubuntu desktop etc... How do I boot ubuntu desktop though
[05:28] <grndslm> BlueEagle:  do you know what the default would be?
[05:28] <nox-Hand> When installing from a 6.06 CD, can I update the installer inside the liveCD?
[05:28] <filenotfound> bulmer> it stucked when partitioning the HDD
[05:28] <xtknight> SecrethX: /etc/pnm2ppa.conf
[05:28] <xtknight> SpudDogg_: system->admin->services maybe
[05:28] <xzk> soundray: Is that normal?
[05:29] <jt_a7x_3> How do I access ubuntu-desktop?
[05:29] <drkm> erUS: thanks
[05:29] <pradeep> jrib, it works thanks :)
[05:29] <grndslm> BlueEagle:  man vgcreate tells me that the default is 4MB
[05:29] <SecrethX> xtknight, im a noob :(
[05:29] <BlueEagle> grndslm: It would be total_disk_size/chunks_availible%std_chunk_size methinks.
[05:30] <xtknight> SecrethX: what printer do you have
[05:30] <grndslm> do you think 4MB is a good default?
[05:30] <grndslm> BlueEagle?
[05:30] <BlueEagle> filenotfound: Does the installer need updating?
[05:30] <SecrethX> xtknight, an Epson Stylus Photo 870
[05:30] <spuddogg> xtknight, those are selected in there...all the samba ones anyway
[05:30] <soundray> xzk: I don't know, I haven't had this type of difficulty. But then my environment is simpler.
[05:30] <GreyGhost> jt_a7x_3 , u are using the minimal install i believe?
[05:30] <huascar80> :O K3b doesn't support DVD+DL !!! What do i do now!
[05:30] <jt_a7x_3> GreyGhost: Yes
[05:31] <BlueEagle> grndslm: I see no reason to think otherwise. If it had been a bad choice it would probably not have been the default.
[05:31] <xtknight> spuddogg: i'm afraid i don't know
[05:31] <xzk> soundray: simpler?
[05:31] <filenotfound> BlueEagle> i dont know... it doesn't say anything
[05:31] <spuddogg> xtknight, thats cool...thanks man
[05:31] <xtknight> spuddogg: look on the forums i guess or maybe ask in #linux or if there's a samba channel
[05:31] <bulmer> filenotfound: what kind of error are you getting if any?
[05:31] <xzk> soundray: have you ever heard of someone not being able to see the 'true' strength before. mine are all showing up as 100% wifi stength
[05:31] <GreyGhost> jt_a7x_3 ,i havent ever used it ..but i think u'll need to download and install the gnome desktop ... one sec.. if the minimal install comes with "apt" that should be prettty easy..
[05:31] <filenotfound> bulmer> no error, just getting stuck...
[05:31] <grndslm> BlueEagle:  doesn't that mean that if i have a 5MB song, it's going to use up 2 chunks for that one song???
[05:31] <xtknight> SecrethX: if it's epson you probably don't need to edit pnm2ppa.  but hplip wont work for epson printers either
[05:32] <BlueEagle> filenotfound: Installing Kubuntu or Ubuntu?
[05:32] <soundray> xzk: there is just one AP I want to connect to, unencrypted. I don't get interference from the neighbours' networks
[05:32] <filenotfound> Ubuntu
[05:32] <SecrethX> xtknight, well yea, but even CUPS doesnt recognize my printer
[05:32] <bulmer> filenotfound: perhaps during install or boot, you need to disable apci so it does not go to hibernate mode?
[05:32] <xtknight> SecrethX: try `sudo modprobe ppdev` in the terminal, and then try using CUPS config (or 'install my printer') to detect your printer
[05:32] <huascar80> No idea on how to burn DVD DL on Ubuntu?
[05:32] <jt_a7x_3> Yes, I was just wondering because on 6.10 iso I had on my other PC, it had a graphical interface, I'm guessing the minimal is just command line.
[05:33] <filenotfound> bulmer> it never went to hibernate mode... not that I know
[05:33] <BlueEagle> grndslm: I think it means that if you've got a 150 byte read-me it's going to use a 4M chunk.
[05:33] <bulmer> filenotfound: why not disable apci just for kicks and see if it makes a difference?
[05:33] <SecrethX> xtknight, "no printers detected"
[05:33] <filenotfound> ok, how ?
[05:33] <bulmer> filenotfound: btw, how big is your hdd?
[05:33] <filenotfound> 30GB
[05:33] <grndslm> BlueEagle:  exactly...alright, thanks for the explanation
[05:34] <soundray> xzk: the wrong signal strength indicator is a driver problem, I believe
[05:34] <bulmer> filenotfound  during boot, at the grub command line  apci=disable
[05:34] <BlueEagle> grndslm: I'm not done yet.
[05:34] <BlueEagle> Jees. :p
[05:34] <xzk> soundray: Yeah, I'm using the ndiswrapper thing
[05:34] <xtknight> SecrethX: are you sure your printer is supported?
[05:34] <newbie77> Hi again, could someone please tell me how I could install dd_rescue (not ddrescue) and dd_rhelp? They are not listed at Applications =>add/remove
[05:34] <filenotfound> bulmer> ok, 10x, i'll try
[05:34] <SecrethX> xtknight, yes, by gutenprint
[05:34] <GreyGhost>  jt_a7x_3 ,,u want gnome or kde?
[05:35] <SecrethX> xtknight, printconf gives me this error; (ill pastebin it)
[05:35] <SecrethX> !pastebin
[05:35] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:35] <jt_a7x_3> GreyGhost: gnome
[05:35] <soundray> xzk: have you found the docs in file:///usr/share/doc/network-manager ?
[05:35] <SecrethX> xtknight, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4129/
[05:36] <xzk> soundray: no, what is that
[05:36] <xtknight> any different between the kernel parameters `noacpi` and `acpi=disable`?
[05:36] <soundray> xzk: a local directory containing documentation
[05:36] <xzk> soundray: what version of Network Manager do you use
[05:37] <GreyGhost>  jt_a7x_3 ,try "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[05:37] <sdaxc1> hi,  i installed tomcat 5.5 on my xubuntu edgy through synaptic.  Anyway the server correctly serves the default page at "http:localhost"  but when i try to open the proveded example servlets at "http://localhost/servlets-examples"  i get a 404 NOT FOUND error.   tomcat is running...so am i trying the wrong url ?
[05:37] <gaspipe1_> sup people
[05:37] <sdaxc1> more info:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4130/
[05:37] <GreyGhost>  jt_a7x_3 ,i think thats the one ..
[05:37] <xtknight> SecrethX: interesting..
[05:37] <diablos_raven> this is probably a really weak question but i was moving icons around on my menu panel and they started disappearing and i know thats not normal
[05:37] <jt_a7x_3> Hold on, have to go to my wired connection.
[05:37] <jony> hello
[05:37] <soundray> xzk: the one in dapper. Sorry, I'm not working on the machine in question right now.
[05:37] <xtknight> SecrethX: try reinstalling gutenprint?
[05:37] <sdaxc1> any ideas why this could be happening... not sure if its related os or not
[05:37] <gaspipe1_> anyone know what the "tray list" on xp is called on Ubuntu?
[05:37] <jony> can someone help me with my connection..?:-)
[05:37] <SecrethX> xtknight, already done that 4 times
[05:38] <xtknight> gaspipe1_: system tray, notification area you mean?
[05:38] <quaal> how do i get the drive i mount to show up in the list of other drives that automatically mounted?
[05:38] <xtknight> SecrethX: with --purge (remove conf)?
[05:38] <soundray> xzk: it's 0.6.2-0ubuntu7
[05:38] <xtknight> !fstab | quaal
[05:38] <ubotu> quaal: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[05:38] <quaal> do i have to mount it in /media/something ?
[05:38] <jony> hElLO..Can anYOne hElP ME?:-)
[05:39] <quaal> xtknight, i have the drive mounted already its just not in the drive list
[05:39] <xtknight> !ask | jony
[05:39] <ubotu> jony: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:39] <gaspipe1_> xtknight: ahhh not sure.. lets say in gaim when I close it, it doesn't exit, it minimizes on the tray... (top panel)
[05:39] <SecrethX> xtknight, ehh.. if I remove libgutenprint2 it will remove ubuntu-desktop too
[05:39] <jony> :-)
[05:39] <xtknight> gaspipe1_: yes, just system tray/notification area (same thing) in gnome i guess.
[05:39] <jony> xtknight: well .. im connected on BitcHX now From Ubuntu 6.02.. and evrytime when i want to connecto to something..like to www.google.com .. i got to make connection..(sudo pppoeconf..)
[05:40] <xtknight> SecrethX: use `sudo dpkg --purge --force-all libgutenprint2`
[05:40] <gaspipe1_> xtknight: awsome... do you know how I can add it to panel again?
[05:40] <jony> ..:-)
[05:40] <xtknight> quaal: drive list?  you mean under "My Computer"?
[05:41] <diablos_raven> this is probably a really weak question but i was moving icons around on my menu panel and they started disappearing and i know thats not normal
[05:41] <quaal> xtknight, under "places" in the File Browser
[05:41] <quaal> sorry
[05:41] <quaal> xtknight,  where the auto-mounted drives are listed
[05:41] <SecrethX> xtknight, no difference, output of printconf is still the same, CUPS still cant detect my printer
[05:41] <jony> xtknight: well .. im connected on BitcHX now From Ubuntu 6.02.. and evrytime when i want to connecto to something..like to www.google.com .. i got to make connection..(sudo pppoeconf..)
[05:41] <xtknight> quaal: oh..umm.. i have no idea how to get it there to be honest
[05:41] <quaal> xtknight, ok thanks
[05:41] <xtknight> SecrethX: odd.  guess your only solution left is google, sorry
[05:41] <nicobrain> hallo, sind hier auch welche die deutsch sprechen?
[05:42] <jony> xtknight ?:S
[05:42] <xtknight> jony: i'm not sure.  i'm not good with dsl
[05:42] <SecrethX> xtknight, I already tried googling the errors printconf gave me, no results :x
[05:42] <jony> :(
[05:42] <jony> k
[05:42] <jony> tnx anyone
[05:42] <jony> anyway*
[05:42] <xtknight> SecrethX: does "/usr/share/foomatic/db/source/driver/gutenprint.xml" exist?
[05:42] <huascar80> anyhow if anybody is interested in the answer gnomebaker seems to work with DVD DL
[05:42] <Charbax> Hello, I got a Windows Dell laptop, How do I get rid of Windows XP and install Ubuntu?
[05:43] <SecrethX> xtknight, no,
[05:43] <Charbax> I got the Ubuntu 6.10 iso image file burnt
[05:43] <xtknight> SecrethX: what about this<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:43] <Charbax> How do I format?
[05:43] <nicobrain> hello, can anybody help me to connect my mobile with ubuntu?
[05:43] <soundray> Charbax: boot it and follow the instructions. There is an option to "Use the whole drive"
[05:43] <kuma> hi, i'm installing SCIM multi-language support for Kubuntu, following this guide:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SCIM/Kubuntu i've encountered a problem in step 5, can someone help me?
[05:43] <xtknight> SecrethX: never mind, no answer there i
[05:43] <gaspipe1_> xtknight: it's under notification reminder when you loko to add to panel....just found it. Thanks again
[05:43] <Rp3> charbax boot and it will allow you to format
[05:43] <Rp3> ;)
[05:44] <Charbax> soundray, when I booted it, I clicked perform install but I didn't get any option to "use the whole drive" ?
[05:44] <steven_> can someone help me with my sound? its being weird...its overdriving my guitar when i plug it in...although the regular sound (music and stuff) is normal..
[05:44] <soundray> Charbax: what did you get?
[05:44] <Charbax> And then when I restart the computer it keeps getting into Windows
[05:44] <thug> can someone please help me mounting one of my shared directory from the other windows machine with write permission for the user ?
[05:44] <soundray> Charbax: you need to follow through with the installation.
[05:44] <Charbax> Let me check the exact iso file
[05:45] <steven_> can someone please help me with my sound??
[05:45] <Charbax> I got "Ubuntu 6.10, the Newest Ubuntu Release" on http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download?action=show&redirect=download
[05:45] <nicobrain> hello, can anybody help me to connect my mobile with ubuntu?
[05:45] <xtknight> SecrethX: all i can suggest is compiling a new version of gutenprint :O
[05:45] <Rp3> charbax when you boot to the live cd, there is a Install option, double click that and one of the first options is where it will go if I remember correctly
[05:45] <SecrethX> xtknight, interesting if I knew how :P
[05:45] <xtknight> !compile | SecrethX :)
[05:45] <ubotu> SecrethX :): Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[05:45] <soundray> steven_: output levels from instruments are way higher than from hifi equipment
[05:45] <SecrethX> :o
[05:45] <xtknight> SecrethX: i'll walk you through it
[05:46] <Music_Shuffle> Epiphany users?
[05:46] <SecrethX> xtknight, okay, first im gonna find the tarballs
[05:46] <Charbax> Rp3, ok I will start again
[05:46] <steven_> soundray so what do i do lower output lvls?
[05:46] <xtknight> SecrethX: link me to the tar bz2/gz you get
[05:46] <Deep7> guys is feisty anywhere near usable yet?
[05:46] <thug> ohh please do not help me all at the same time :))
[05:46] <HiP_P> !swat
[05:46] <thug> its too much for me .. ;) cant type that fast
[05:46] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:46] <xtknight> Deep7: #ubuntu+1   feisty is usable imo, not stable
[05:46] <Rp3> I just did the install on a laptop, and it asks if you want to use the whole drive, at least it did for eme :)
[05:47] <dremon> nicobrain: how to you want to connect your mobile and for what? internet access?
[05:47] <SecrethX> xtknight, http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1537&package_id=143930&release_id=435706
[05:47] <diablos_raven> thug, just mount the shared folder in your personal dir
[05:47] <soundray> steven_: I don't know, it depends on your equipment
[05:48] <newbie77> Sorry for insisting, but could someone please help me to install Hi again, could someone please tell me how I could install something not listed at Applications =>Add/Remove?
[05:48] <soundray> steven_: it's possible that your guitar amp has a hifi-level output
[05:48] <xtknight> SecrethX: gotcha.  i guess we will just install over the deb package to avoid package manager issues.  bit messy but what the heck
[05:48] <thug> diablos_raven yeah nice help . thanks a lot ? hello ? wake up " i want write permission to it " to can mount something i need sudo right ? sudo mount will mount it with root permission isnt it ?
[05:48] <newbie77> sorry for the pasting mess
[05:48] <steven_> soundray im plugging my guitar directly into my computer...
[05:48] <SecrethX> xtknight, okay :) I already extracted the files
[05:48] <soundray> steven_: I know. You shouldn't do that.
[05:48] <HiP_P> hmmm having getting swat to work.... its in the inetd.conf its just not working
[05:49] <soundray> steven_: unless what you want is a fried soundcard.
[05:49] <HiP_P> *having trouble
[05:49] <xtknight> SecrethX: ok lets see if we need any configure options for the epson
[05:49] <newbie77> apt-get tells me that it can not find the package dd_rhelp
[05:49] <steven_> soundray: alright so i plug from amp to computer?
[05:49] <Charbax> OK when I boot the laptop with the Ubuntu CD in, it says "Start or install Ubuntu", "Start Ubuntu in safe graphics mode", Check CD for defects, memory test, Boot from first hard disk
[05:50] <soundray> steven_: worth trying
[05:50] <Charbax> When I click "Start or install Ubuntu" there is no option to Delete windows on the hard disk
[05:50] <steven_> soundray: when i used windows everything would sound perfect...nothing overdrived...but now im using linux and its overdriving..
[05:50] <xtknight> SecrethX: type "./configure" and paste the output on pastebin if there are no errors
[05:50] <OneOfTheMany> Charbax: It should as you if you want to remove everything from your hard drive when you come to the partitioning section
[05:50] <ompaul> steven_, and you did not know your hardware could be - now you can find the point that suits your ear most and not have some random setting in your way
[05:50] <OneOfTheMany> *ask
[05:51] <Rp3> correct, just let it boot, that is the live CD booting, then once it comes up there will be an install icon double click that to install.
[05:51] <xtknight> SecrethX: mine personally says " Build EPSON Stylus utility:                 yes
[05:51] <xtknight> "
[05:51] <Charbax> Is it better to get "Ubuntu 6.06 LTS" ?
[05:51] <soundray> Charbax: when you choose "Start or install Ubuntu", you should boot into a graphical desktop. There is a program there called "Install Ubuntu" or similar
[05:51] <Rp3> 2 answers are better than one :)
[05:51] <SecrethX> xtknight, ok, configuring now
[05:52] <soundray> steven_: you could reduce your input levels using the mixer (doubleclick the volume icon on the top panel)
[05:52] <HiP_P> and iam using 6.06
[05:52] <SecrethX> xtknight, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4134/
[05:52] <soundray> steven_: but what you're doing is not safe -- probably not in Windows, either

[05:53] <steven_> soundray: so going through my amp is a better option
[05:54] <forgeuk> Anyone know a good wallpaper manager like Webshots, I've tried "kWebuilder" and "wallpaper tray" and "bg-change". they either dont work, or dont work how I want, I just want to point to a folder, and have it change to a random image every hour.
[05:54] <lulu> huhugg
[05:54] <soundray> steven_: it may or may not be, depending on the output levels that your amp has
[05:54] <CyberCod> forgeuk yes, i think its called drapes
[05:54] <CyberCod> forgeuk: it runs using mono
[05:54] <SecrethX> xtknight, hold on, the pastebin thinks im spamming
[05:55] <lulu> cybercode:hello
[05:55] <forgeuk> Cybergod, ah yes, tried that one too, it seems to shutdown right after starting
[05:55] <xtknight> SecrethX: lol
[05:55] <soundray> Charbax: which version did you get?
[05:55] <CyberCod> hello lulu
[05:55] <Charbax> 6.10
[05:55] <xtknight> SecrethX: well just see why cups didnt get automatically selected for building
[05:55] <GreyGhost>  jt_a7x_3 .did that work ? i mean GNOME?
[05:55] <CyberCod> forgeuk, you had mono installed, yes?
[05:55] <xtknight> SecrethX: was cups-config not found or something?
[05:55] <soundray> Charbax: that's fine, you just have to follow it through.
[05:55] <soundray> Have to go.
[05:55] <Charbax> Now I'm booting into the graphical mode, will try to execute the "Install" icon that is on the desktop, but it just seems not to work
[05:56] <lulu> cybercode:you are a man
[05:56] <SecrethX> xtknight, ill do grep cups, that makes it easier
[05:56] <forgeuk> Cybergod, I guess I didn't have mono installed, as I dont remember installing it
[05:56] <Charbax> It says "There was an error starting GNOME settings daemon"
[05:56] <xtknight> SecrethX: do grep -i cups  actually so it's case insensitive
[05:56] <CyberCod> lulu, yes... is that a problem for you?
[05:56] <Charbax> stuff like that, I just guess it might be a smoother install if the hard drive was formatted first
[05:56] <jt_a7x_3> GreyGhost: It's still downloading.
[05:57] <lulu> cybercode:no
[05:57] <GreyGhost> jt_a7x_3 ,ah ok .. i've gotta go though.. cya .. hope it works ..
[05:57] <SecrethX> blah, im still spamming according to the pastebin
[05:57] <jt_a7x_3> GreyGhost: Thanks for the help, have a good one.

[05:58] <Charbax> There is only 256mb ram in this laptop, that might be a reason why it doesn't install correctly?
[05:58] <forgeuk> Cybergod: how do I go about installing Mono, I see about 100 things called mono in Synaptic Package manager

[05:58] <gaspipe1> i'm looking to install a driver for my Brother MFC 5100C. On Brother's website is asks which linux (ubuntu) I am using For Red Hat / Mandriva (Mandrake) / SuSE / FedoraCore Users or Debian?
[05:58] <xtknight> gaspipe1: debian
[05:59] <CyberCod> forgeuk, i think its the package "mono"   not trying to be a smartass... its just that is all it says
[05:59] <HymnToLife> gaspipe1, Debian is your best bet
[05:59] <OneOfTheMany> whats the most popular app for watching digital television in a window on my desktop?
[05:59] <steven_> ompaul: im getting a high pitch/crappy sounding sound when i playback what i record (sound not overdriving now)
[05:59] <lulu> cybercode:where are you
[05:59] <gaspipe1> HymnToLife: ok thanks
[05:59] <CyberCod> OneOfTheMany: depends on if you mean streaming, or via a capture card
[05:59] <andy> is there a tool in gnome for mounting my windows partition?
[05:59] <CyberCod> lulu check pm
[05:59] <HiP_P> gpart
[06:00] <gaspipe1> HymnToLife: too bad I'm using 64bit and it only offers 32 bit lol
[06:00] <OneOfTheMany> CyberCod: I have a digital tv card
[06:00] <forgeuk> CyberCod: Mono - Dot net runtime...ok, I'll give that a go
[06:00] <SecrethX> xtknight, http://pastebin.ca/340203
[06:00] <lulu> cybercode i have a question
[06:00] <gaspipe1> !printers
[06:00] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[06:00] <gpm_> andy: do you know what device it is?
[06:00] <OneOfTheMany> Cybercod: it works fine with mythtv.. but i cant run that in a window
[06:00] <ompaul> steven_, well have a look at the mic and its settings - and if it is in the machine (like for instance a laptop) I point at the need for a different mic
[06:00] <HymnToLife> ubotu, tell HymnToLife about botsnack | HymnToLife, see the private message from ubotu.
[06:00] <CyberCod> OneOfTheMany:  just one moment, I'll have to look.
[06:00] <w00dy> y'all know anything about this error: usb 3-3: device descriptor read 164, error -110
[06:00] <HymnToLife> (sry, just testing)
[06:01] <ferret_0567> Can I use bootchart and the dependency' it installs with Sun's Java JDK on Ubuntu 6.10 without messing anything up?
[06:01] <xtknight> SecrethX: `sudo apt-get install libcupsys2-dev` then do ./configure again
[06:01] <ferret_0567> I still want my Sun Java to work after installing bootchart
[06:01] <xtknight> SecrethX: and verify cups is getting configured this time
[06:01] <lulu> cybercode:
[06:02] <ferret_0567> I am interested in how fast Ubuntu 6.10 actually boots up
[06:02] <rEvolution27> hey guys, just did a fresh install on an older system... how do i check what graphics card i have? so i can get the driver. I know it's an nvidia
[06:02] <SecrethX> xtknight, ill do it again with grep :)
[06:02] <xtknight> SecrethX: sounds goood

[06:02] <GMWeezel> I have found a bug in gedit; where can I report it?
[06:02] <lulu> hello
[06:02] <Charbax> So when I install Ubuntu, it shows the "Examples" and the "Install" icons on the graphical desktop. I double click on "Install" but nothing happens. I guess this laptop is broken or something? Maybe the 256mb ram are corrupted, maybe I should try to get he Windows partition formatted before getting into this graphical desktop Ubuntu installation?

[06:03] <lulu> hymtolife:hello
[06:03] <xtknight> SecrethX: looks good to me. type `make` now
[06:03] <Charbax> Maybe I should read the tutorial for a command line installation of ubuntu
[06:03] <SecrethX> xtknight, ok doing make now
[06:04] <CyberCod> OneOfTheMany:  tvtime i found to be best (though it doesnt record I think) and kdetv was ok
[06:04] <lulu> ubotu:hello
[06:04] <ubotu> hello: The classic greeting, and a good example. In component main, is optional. Version 2.1.1-4 (edgy), package size 47 kB, installed size 472 kB
[06:04] <TheGateKeeper> Charbax, you need to create a partition for linux to be installed onto, if it is all windows you will need to shrink it with something like gparted
[06:04] <LvanderRee> Hello can someone tell me why my multimedia keys (logitech dinovo) aren't recognized in gnome, but work fine in kde. Just give me some hints and I will figure out the rest, but don't know where to start looking now...
[06:04] <CyberCod> Charbax:  you could get an alternate cd
[06:04] <lulu> cybercode
[06:04] <kuma> hi, i'm installing SCIM multi-language support for Kubuntu, following this guide:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SCIM/Kubuntu i've encountered a problem in step 5, can someone help me?
[06:05] <quaal> is raid supported in edgy ?
[06:05] <Rochvellon> i've got a javabased program, which can minimized to tray. what can i do that this program appears in this tray? ubuntu 6.10
[06:05] <SecrethX> xtknight, got an error
[06:05] <CyberCod> lulu, its not cybercode, its CyberCod
[06:05] <xtknight> SecrethX: was it about -lcupsimage?
[06:05] <quaal> i have a Sil3112 raid controller
[06:05] <quaal> with 2 sata drives in raid-0
[06:05] <SecrethX> xtknight, yes
[06:05] <Charbax> CyberCod, what is the alternate CD?
[06:05] <zzz_> xtknight: I figured out why 2.6.19 names my hard disk as sda. It is because the module named ata_piix recognizes my IDE controller and registers it as sda. So ide-generic module cannot recognize my hard disk as hda anymore....
[06:05] <lulu> cybercod:sorry
[06:05] <xtknight> SecrethX: hold up, trying to fix that myself
[06:05] <SecrethX> xtknight, ok ok :)
[06:05] <CyberCod> Charbax:  its a text based ubuntu install disk, you'll need to download and burn an iso
[06:05] <harry> does anybody here use lirc with an ati remote wonder or know where I can find help please?
[06:06] <CyberCod> lulu, can I help you with something?
[06:06] <Charbax> ok I will look for than thanks
[06:06] <quaal> is editing the kernel as detailed in this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2557 the only way to get a raid-0 array working in 6.10 ?
[06:06] <lulu> cybercod:yes  i have a question
[06:06] <CyberCod> !alternate cd
[06:06] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[06:06] <fotoflo> OY VEI
[06:07] <LvanderRee> kuma: what is your problem with step 5
[06:07] <CyberCod> lulu, shoot
[06:07] <gpm_> fotoflo: indeed
[06:07] <fotoflo> Ubuntu screwed my windows partition up!
[06:07] <kuma> LvanderRee: I don't have that directory
[06:07] <lulu> cybercod what
[06:07] <harry> quaal: no - i think you can use the alternate cd which is why cybercod got ubuntu to shout about it i assume
[06:07] <fotoflo> everything is now read-only
[06:07] <fotoflo> even when i boot into windows
[06:07] <harry> fotoflo: even in windows?
[06:07] <kuma> LvanderRee: in my home folder, i mean, shoul i create it?
[06:07] <quaal> hmm
[06:07] <xtknight> SecrethX: "sudo apt-get install libcupsimage2-dev"  then 'make' will continue where it left off
[06:07] <xtknight> zzz_: ahh.
[06:07] <quaal> i already have ubuntu instaleld
[06:07] <quaal> installed
[06:07] <harry> fotoflo: look on the wiki for mounting fat partitions
[06:08] <OneOfTheMany> CyberCod: thanks - i tried that a while back - never seems to detect my digitaltv (just the analog in on my tv card) - I must be missing something
[06:08] <fotoflo> now im back in windows
[06:08] <quaal> harry, i just want to be able to access these 2 raid-0 ntfs drives
[06:08] <gpm_> harry: he can't write to the windows partition in windows
[06:08] <ferret_0567> Has anyone tried Ubuntu 6.10 and bootchart with Sun Java?
[06:08] <LvanderRee> kuma: I think sudo apt-get install  scim-pinyin  should do the trick
[06:08] <CyberCod> OneOfTheMany:  sorry, missed the part about it being digital signal
[06:08] <SecrethX> xtknight, ok doing make again
[06:08] <ferret_0567> Sun Java 6 from the multiverse repo to be exaxt
[06:08] <LvanderRee> ow sorry. your homefolder, I think you have to create it yourself
[06:08] <lulu> cybercode
[06:08] <zzz_> xtknight: I have to specify which modules load in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules to work around this problem...
[06:08] <CyberCod> lulu, just ask ok?
[06:08] <harry> quaal: i dont know enough about raid for that - sorry
[06:09] <quaal> ok
[06:09] <quaal> thanks
[06:09] <fotoflo> and windows is extra slow because there is no scratch disk anymore
[06:09] <kuma> LvanderRee: ok, will try that
[06:09] <LvanderRee> kuma: the folders with a dot in front of it are hidden, you can see them with " ls -a "
[06:09] <kuma> LvanderRee: yes, i already tried that
[06:09] <harry> gpm_: mounting it correctly in ubuntu may help solve that - then he can chown in ubuntu i would think
[06:09] <lulu> cybercod myquestion is you are speek espanish
[06:09] <harry> !ubuntu-es
[06:09] <gpm_> harry: you can't set permissions on fat or ntfs
[06:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-es - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:09] <CyberCod> lulu, sorry no, solo um poco... not enough to help
[06:09] <LvanderRee> kuma: but if it doesn't excists, you can create it with "mkdir  .xinput.d"
[06:10] <harry> !spanish
[06:10] <CyberCod> !es
[06:10] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[06:10] <abhinay> hi all
[06:10] <harry> gpm_: well i know there is an odd way of mounting it so you can write in ubuntu (using umode=0666 i think)
[06:10] <LvanderRee> kuma: usually the application then find these new directories themselves (sometimes after you have logged in again)
[06:10] <kuma> LvanderRee: yes, but should i create it, or maybe i'm missing an app
[06:10] <harry> gpm_: its a start
[06:10] <gpm_> harry: you can only mount with certain permissions which can't be changed...plus iirc, there's NO write support at all for ntfs
[06:10] <Linuxd00d> hey guys
[06:11] <lulu> cybercod you want tak whit me
[06:11] <ferret_0567> !bootchart
[06:11] <abhinay> is that possible to change the font in tty1, tty2, tty3... as in previous versions of ubuntu (I'm using Edgy)
[06:11] <ubotu> bootchart: boot sequence auditing and chart generator. In component main, is extra. Version 0.9-0ubuntu6 (edgy), package size 96 kB, installed size 192 kB
[06:11] <gpm_> harry: yes, what you're talking about is mounting it with pre-defined permissions, but that won't help him mount it in windows
[06:11] <harry> i am having problems with lirc - the /dev/lirc device node isn't working - anybody have any ideas?
[06:11] <Moxxon> Would it be possible to run WOw through wine?
[06:11] <Linuxd00d> again still having problems with nvidia card, will not even let me install
[06:11] <gpm_> Moxxon: very possible
[06:11] <harry> Moxxon: yes-tutorials on the web
[06:11] <Moxxon> Awesome!
[06:11] <SecrethX> xtknight, its done
[06:11] <CyberCod> you can mount ext3 partitions in windows using ext2fsd
[06:11] <harry> gpm_: oh ok - then i dont know, sorry
[06:11] <lulu> cybercod
[06:11] <LvanderRee> kuma: no sometimes you have to create these folders yourself, when they are located in your home folder, some apps make them theirselves, and others use the default in /etc when no folder in home/. excists
[06:12] <xtknight> SecrethX: 'sudo make install'
[06:12] <gpm_> harry: i don't either, it's a weird problem
[06:12] <CyberCod> lulu, yes?
[06:12] <nn531> !htpc
[06:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about htpc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:12] <kuma> LvanderRee: ok, i'll try creating it and then i'll restart my PC
[06:12] <LvanderRee> kuma: so if you make changes in the home/. folder you overwrite the preferences of the default settings stored in /etc
[06:12] <LvanderRee> kuma: just log-out and log back in again should be enough I think
[06:12] <kuma> LvanderRee: Isee, well thganks, i'll do that right away
[06:12] <rEvolution27> how do i check the amt of space on a partition?
[06:13] <kuma> LvanderRee: ok
[06:13] <drkm> jlkj

[06:14] <SecrethX> xtknight, i dunno, it was in synaptic, while i was searching for gutenprint
[06:14] <xtknight> cool "make -j 3" will use dual core cpus
