[02:05] <mcrandello> xrandr gives a list then xrandr -s X pick a number from the list to set it to that resolution
[02:05] <xroach> kodat and thats a graphic gui for it:)
[02:05] <kodat> xroach, hmm said it couldnt find packages
[02:06] <bdragonmsl> maxflax: then is there some reason that every time I try to install glx it says that it can't find my card??
[02:06] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, but if u are using an onboard Nforce graphics card u probably want to install Nvidia's binaries for best performance
[02:06] <SB|nblracer> just thought i will let you guys know, your in Maximum PC
[02:06] <willzzz> the funny thing is for my iwconfig, the eth1 scanning works but i can't associate :\
[02:06] <xroach> kodat w8 maybe i mispellet it
[02:06] <BoukenPink> Hey all~
[02:06] <kodat> xroach, lol ok
[02:06] <willzzz> i rechecked and my /etc/network/interfaces wireless wep encryption is still there like before
[02:06] <doppelganger_> anybody know of a list of wireless cards that are officially support by ubuntu?
[02:06] <willys_fueguino> mcrandello, I love you!!! thanxX!!! (figurative speaking )
[02:06] <willzzz> so i dunno why edgy doesn't like my bcm43xx wlan card
[02:06] <doppelganger_> i'm trying to help a friend see if his card will work out of the box
[02:06] <kodat> xroach, thanks for helping me by the way..ive been tryin to fix my wireless like all freekin day..glad you guys are here to help
[02:06] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, what Nforce do u got?
[02:06] <doppelganger_> before he starts the mumbojumbo
[02:06] <xroach> kodat try sudo apt-cache search ndis
[02:06] <kitche> willzzz: you might have to install the firmware for bcm43xx
[02:07] <SB|nblracer> How can i tell if my ISP is blocking a port
[02:07] <willzzz> kitche: i have the firmware installed
[02:07] <willzzz> same files as before
[02:07] <mcrandello> willys_fueguino, that one is especially handy with laptops and dual head. You can make a desktop shortcut with the command you just ran if it happens all the time also :)
[02:07] <willzzz> the firmware as far as I know didn't change
[02:07] <Kingsqueak> doppelganger_ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:07] <boricua> i really need some guidance in getting skype running, mike seems not to be configured or somethign is not allowing my mic to record
[02:07] <thedude> anyone try vmware of vmplayer on edgy yet?
[02:07] <bdragonmsl> nforce 4
[02:07] <willys_fueguino> mcrandello, Im going to write it down in my blog thanx :-
[02:07] <kitche> willzzz: make sure that they are still installed though
[02:07] <Kalisto> grrrr why will stunnel not run???? the strace makes no sence.. i have no idea
[02:07] <xroach> kodat sudo apt-get install ndisgtk
[02:08] <neorayden> join #ubuntu-chicago
[02:08] <willzzz> they are
[02:08] <bdragonmsl> maxflax: nforce 4
[02:08] <willzzz> i just checked in /lib/firmware
[02:08] <kodat> xroach, heh yah u did mispell ^_^
[02:08] <Daviey> thedude, i'm installing vm server now on edgy
[02:08] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, and u are using the onboard VGA?
[02:08] <kal> hi there
[02:08] <xroach> kodat and u need the windows driver for your card also
[02:08] <kodat> xroach, alright its done..now how to i open
[02:08] <thedude> its givin me some hell
[02:08] <thedude> the ethernet wont install
[02:08] <xroach> it should be in your system -- administration
[02:08] <kodat> xroach, well getting the windows driver is the east part
[02:09] <bdragonmsl> maxflax: no, pcie
[02:09] <BoukenPink> It seems the newer Ubuntu releases get, the less they want me to install them XD
[02:09] <Daviey> thedude, i'll let you know when i get that far
[02:09] <Intangir> hey, how do i restart GDM on edgy?
[02:09] <Nem|ltop> kitche, you said ndiswrapper -l right?
[02:09] <bdragonmsl>  maxflax: 7900 gt
[02:09] <Intangir> is there a seperate edgy channel?
[02:09] <kal> I have some boot problem with edgy. My laptop takes about 5 minutes just to boot. I've checked this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=282956
[02:09] <kitche> willzzz: see if bcm43xxx is loaded by lsmod |grep bcm43xx
[02:09] <kal> but it didnt solv my problem
[02:09] <kitche> Nem|ltop: yeah it should say driver present and hardware present
[02:09] <ianmacgregor> Intangir: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:09] <willzzz> yep
[02:09] <Kingsqueak> Intangir /etc/init.d/gdm restart   maybe?
[02:09] <JoseStefan> How do I check what AGP rate I am running on ?
[02:09] <willzzz> bcm43xx               148500  0
[02:09] <willzzz> ieee80211softmac       40704  1 bcm43xx
[02:09] <willzzz> ieee80211              39112  2 bcm43xx,ieee80211softmac
[02:09] <kal> it just bock at "running local-top script" with generic i386 kernel
[02:09] <Intangir> whoa this window is weirding out
[02:09] <preaction> Does anyone know why my update-notification applet hasn't asked me about upgrading to Edgy?
[02:10] <mcrandello> Intangir, <ctrl><alt><bkspc> from within X, of course that kills the whole xserver tho
[02:10] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, ok.. have u tried with the drivers in the respitories?
[02:10] <BoukenPink> I could boot into the Dapper CD but not install... and now Edgy just freezes while loading... I'ma try the alternate CD~
[02:10] <Nem|ltop> kitche, says driver installed hardware present for both athfmwdl and neta5agu
[02:10] <Intangir> /etc/init.d/gdm start says failed,
[02:10] <mcrandello> meaning your session
[02:10] <Daviey> kal, i have the same problem with 650Mhz 192Mb RAM!  Takes longer than 5 minutes and when i do get gnome up, clicking INSTALL takes over 5 mins then an empty form appears.  Then freezes
[02:10] <Intangir> omg the new terminal font on ubuntu edgy SUCKS
[02:10] <kitche> ok ah it's an atheros card
[02:10] <Intangir> half the characters dont show up
[02:10] <Intangir> also it seems to be misreporting its size
[02:10] <kitche> Nem|ltop try iwconfig ath0 up
[02:11] <kal> Except that my laptop is a VAIO S4HP, with 1GB RAM and 1.63GHz CPU
[02:11] <bdragonmsl> maxflax: yeah and everytime it breaks my xserver and comes up with a blue screen of death, or at least something like it
[02:11] <xroach> kodat and u need to have the right file from the drivers , u should find it from forums u read?
[02:11] <Nem|ltop> kitche, unrecognised wireless request "up"
[02:11] <kal> its not a hardware problem, because with dapper it was booting in 40seconds
[02:11] <thedude> oh man
[02:11] <Drago> now that I got my networking working, I am loving the way ubu handles packages... its so bloody easy to get stuff installed.. love it
[02:11] <thedude> edgy totally f'd up vmware
[02:11] <kitche> Nem|ltop: ah yea sudo ifconfig ath0 up forgot iwconfig doesn't have an up
[02:11] <anomaly> does Dapper have ootb support for dual core? if not, I take it I can apt-get a kernel that would work?
[02:11] <finalbeta> preaction , it will never do that, edgy is considered a new "branch". Dapper is still supported. If you want to upgrade, you can do it manually
[02:11] <morphish> Nem|ltop: he meant ifconfig not iwconfig
[02:12] <Daviey> thedude, i'm doing various apt-get's at the moment so need to wait for them to finish
[02:12] <Kingsqueak> anomaly 686 kernel generally
[02:12] <preaction> finalbeta, so my update-notification thing that notified me of Dapper was... wrong?
[02:12] <kal> nobody knows how can i solve this issue ? :/
[02:12] <Nem|ltop> kitche "ath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: no such device"
[02:12] <kodat> xroach, i got the right windows driver downloaded, but what do i do with it
[02:12] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, Beats me then.. is your gfx supported by the drivers?
[02:12] <anomaly> Kingsqueak ty
[02:12] <fluxinator> kitche, thanks a million
[02:12] <Kingsqueak> that works for Intel, k7 works for AMD
[02:12] <bdragonmsl> says it is
[02:12] <thedude> i cant even get vmplayer to work
[02:12] <xulund> !webcams
[02:12] <ubotu> webcam is now easy to install on Linux; instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[02:12] <hamdinp> hello
[02:13] <slinky_> does anyone know if a HP 1018 Laserjet printer will work on an old style USB port under Dapper
[02:13] <xroach> well kodat u load it with ndiswapper
[02:13] <Kingsqueak> the 'motion' package works well in Dapper for cams too
[02:13] <bdragonmsl> maxflax: I've done about 8 installs all the same.  Yet in suse it works flawlessly
[02:13] <hamdinp> what is the drapper drake default root password
[02:13] <kodat> xroach, ah i see
[02:13] <xroach> its the file with .inf
[02:13] <preaction> !root > hamdinp
[02:13] <Daviey> hamdinp, none!
[02:13] <Drago> Question, I am downloading and installing ubuvnc package... where will I find its links ? once its in
[02:14] <willzzz> i got my wlan working... redid the firmware and forced a -r reload of bcm43xx
[02:14] <kahdgarxi> is installing to a raid supported in edgy eft?
[02:14] <fluxinator> kitche, thanks again man
[02:14] <willzzz> kitche, thanks
[02:14] <Daviey> hamdinp, if you want to set it.  Do 'sudo passwd' then enter the current user's password followed by a NEW root password
[02:14] <morphish> kahdgarxi: that should be supported from the alternate cd, with the text installer it mentions raid and lvm on those
[02:14] <webhed> Can someone help me with a Beryl issue? I'm trying to install it and get it working but I'm getting an error.
[02:14] <kodat> xroach, heres another stupid question..how do i open it with  ndiswrapper = (
[02:15] <Kingsqueak> kahdgarxi if it's hardware, linux should see the logical volume as just a drive
[02:15] <kahdgarxi> morphish: thanks
[02:15] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, I have the same problem with my soundcard.. i'v been compiling kernels.. drivers.. over and over again.. addin stuff and removing stuff.. so sometimes u just wanna ninja chop it..
[02:15] <Richard__> howdy folks, I would like to blacklist some kernel modules not foud in restricted-modules-common
[02:15] <xroach> kodat u got the ndiswapper running?
[02:15] <Richard__> does anyone know which text file I should edit?
[02:15] <Nem|ltop> kitche, you still there?
[02:15] <kahdgarxi> Kingsqueak: I have to do software, my hardware controller is retarded and linux sees straight through the raid to the physical disks
[02:15] <kitche> yeah Nem|ltop
[02:15] <morphish> Richard__: /etc/modprobe/.d/blacklist
[02:15] <xroach> kodat its "wireles network driver"
[02:15] <kodat> xroach, no idea..lol..i didnt find it anywhere in my applications so i have no idea if its running
[02:15] <Kingsqueak> kahdgarxi inneresting, k
[02:15] <morphish> Richard__: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[02:16] <Richard__> morphish, thanks :)
[02:16] <michaels_> err, I just did a clean install and I can't remember what media player I used to use. all I remember is I'd always press '2' to get the size to double the original... which would that be? ><
[02:16] <bdragonmsl> maxflax: maybe we need to swap boards
[02:16] <Nem|ltop> kitche, got an error on that last command you gave me, says no such device
[02:16] <Kingsqueak> kahdgarxi curious, which RAID card is it?
[02:16] <bdragonmsl> maxflax: my sound works
[02:16] <oneseventeen> I am trying to install Zend Studio on Edgy, but I keep getting errors because it can't find libm.so.6, libc.so.6, librt.so.1, and a few others...
[02:16] <michaels_> boy do I feel stupid, it actually was just totem. I shouldn't type when I'm so tired. 0.0
[02:16] <bluefox83> michaels_, you need to remember a little more than that i think
[02:16] <kitche> Nem|ltop do sudo ndiswrapper -m it should add something to /etc/modprobe.conf you check that file to see what devices it's using for those drivers
[02:16] <bluefox83> nevermind..
[02:16] <morphish> oneseventeen: is that a binary app on amd64? (just guessng)
[02:16] <bdragonmsl> maxflax: brb, gonna switch irc clients
[02:16] <xroach> kodat sudo ndisgtk
[02:16] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, lol..
[02:17] <wastrel> ubunto
[02:17] <oneseventeen> morphish: I'm not sure, I don't use any special 64-bit software... I'm 32-bit all the way...
[02:17] <kodat> xroach, hmm problem is the drive i downloaded is an exe..i guess i gotta find the .inf
[02:17] <kodat> xroach, driver* is exe
[02:17] <Nem|ltop> kitche, says modprobe config already contains alias directive and /etc/modprobe.conf doesn't exist
[02:18] <wastrel> kodat:  some .exe are self-extracting zip and you can just use unzip to open them.
[02:18] <xroach> u should find from forums that what others have used
[02:18] <bdragonmsl> maxflax, I'm back
[02:18] <hamdinp> Daviey : Thanks ! But I install  6.06.1 from live cd with no root password.
[02:18] <thedude> !xgl

[02:18] <morphish> oneseventeen: then nevermind , sure does osund weird in that case, sooy, no help here
[02:18] <kodat> wastrel, guess i need to download a zip program..which program is zip for linux
[02:18] <kitche> Nem|ltop hmm maybe it's in /etc/modules.conf then
[02:18] <kitche> kodat: unzip is what you want
[02:18] <Daviey> hamdinp, exactly... root doesn't HAVE a password with default ubuntu installation
[02:19] <oneseventeen> hmmm, libc6, libc6-dev, and libc6-i686 are all installed so i don't see what the problem is...
[02:19] <Rav|strangler> can I connect to more than one network?? in irc?
[02:19] <morphish> hamdinp: sudo su -, supply your user's password, they ou are root
[02:19] <webhed> Can someone help me with a Beryl issue? I'm trying to install it and get it working but I'm getting an error.
[02:19] <Nem|ltop> kitche it appears to be empty
[02:19] <kitche> Rav|strangler yes just type in /server <server>
[02:19] <factotum> okay just upgraded to edgy, used to be able to run Unreal Tournament by simply typing "ut", now I get a syntax error saying "/usr/local/bin/ut: 29: Syntax error: Bad substitution
[02:19] <factotum> any takers?
[02:19] <mcrandello> factotum, yes
[02:19] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, well.I can get your soundcard.. and u can get a old geforce 2 card from me..  :D
[02:19] <morphish> oneseventeen: run 'ldd' on that binary, see what it looks for maybe
[02:20] <bdragonmsl> maxflax, LOL
[02:20] <hamdinp> yes,  but blank (just enter  )was not accept
[02:20] <kodat> kitche, hmm supposably i have unzip..where the heck is it
[02:20] <mcrandello> mv /bin/sh /bin/SH then ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh and try again
[02:20] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, the fan is a little broken.. but it works sometimes
[02:20] <mcrandello> factotum, ^^
[02:20] <webhed> where is XORG.conf in Edgy?
[02:20] <factotum> a soft link?
[02:20] <factotum> okay
[02:20] <oneseventeen> morphish: how do I run ldd on it?  (I've never used ldd before)
[02:20] <bdragonmsl> maxflax, I'm about to throw ubuntu out the window and use suse, no matter how old their software is.
[02:20] <morphish> mcrandello: why not just suggest to ln -sf the bash to sh ?
[02:20] <wastrel> webben:  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:20] <kitche> Nem|ltop: have you checked /etc/modprobe.d and the files in there no blacklist but the others might be in there someplace forgot that ubuntu uses that folder instead of modprobe.conf
[02:21] <oneseventeen> morphish: ldd ZendStudio-5_2_0.bin simply states "not a dynamic executable"
[02:21] <bdragonmsl> maxflax, not to mention how hard it is to install software on it
[02:21] <Daviey> hamdinp, the password you need to enter is for the current user (not root).  I'm pretty sure that ubuntu makes you use a password with your first user account
[02:21] <bruenig> anyone in here know in what directory the trash is in xubuntu?
[02:21] <mcrandello> morphish, the only reason I even knew to do that is I read it on some dudes blog last night and it worked for me
[02:21] <xroach> kodat http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/List
[02:21] <mcrandello> :)
[02:21] <morphish> oneseventeen: ldd `which whateveryoucallittostartit`
[02:21] <thedude> phew vmware fixed
[02:21] <VR^> bruenig: ~/.Trash
[02:21] <Rav|strangler> hey kitche can i do it simultaneously?
[02:21] <morphish> mcrandello: ln -sf would be less work ;)
[02:21] <Nem|ltop> kitche, which files am i looking for and what inside said files
[02:21] <Daviey> thedude, i'm having some linux-header problems, can you let me know the problems you had with networking?
[02:21] <bruenig> VR^, not so much,  unless I am really missing something here. I know in ubuntu that is where it is but I am not finding it xubuntu
[02:21] <kitche> Rav|strangler: yes
[02:21] <morphish> oneseventeen: that is an installer, have you installed it?
[02:21] <mcrandello> morphish, true, I'll need to hit up man to see what that -f does though :)
[02:21] <thedude> with vmware?
[02:22] <user-land> is someone here using amule ?
[02:22] <Daviey> Rav|strangler, yeah click XChat then network list and select the network to connect to
[02:22] <thedude> i did a vmware-uninstall
[02:22] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, use what works..but I like ubuntu.. and who knows someday your graphicscard will work in ubuntu!  Can I delete those sections?
[02:22] <kitche> Nem|ltop: what files are in /etc/modprobe.d
[02:22] <morphish> mcrandello: force, as in rm -rf, -f is mostly force, -r is mostly recursive
[02:22] <thedude> then ran vmware-install.pl again
[02:22] <kitche> kodat: open a terminal and do unzip <name>.exe
[02:22] <wastrel> webhed:  backup the working copy first but then yes, give it a try
[02:22] <kodat> kitche, lemme try
[02:22] <Kingsqueak> webhed yes, but delete the references to them also
[02:22] <Nem|ltop> kitche, a bunch of blacklist files, alsa base, aliases, bluez, ipw3945, isapnp, ndiswrapper
[02:22] <thedude> oh btw you have to install the kernel headers again
[02:22] <mcrandello> morphish, so that would overwrite the other link that was already in there?
[02:22] <Nem|ltop> should i be opening ndiswrapper
[02:22] <kitche> Nem|ltop check ndiswrapper file and aliases
[02:23] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, im off for a alsa-driver hg compilation.. hoping that will save the day..
[02:23] <bdragonmsl> Don't suppose anyone knows how to tell xorg that my cards address is a certain one is there?
[02:23] <Nem|ltop> kitche, whats that command sorta like cat to view a file in terminal?
[02:23] <bdragonmsl> maxflax, good luck!!
[02:23] <morphish> mcrandello: aye
[02:23] <kitche> Nem|ltop yep it's cat
[02:23] <kodat> kitche, do i have to specify a zip location or something..cuz nothing happened
[02:23] <mortal5> could someone please tell me why vim in 6.10 doesn't have syntax hightlighting?
[02:23] <bdragonmsl> !nvidia
[02:23] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:23] <wastrel> mortal5:  did you try  :syntax on   ?
[02:23] <Sarkie> !wireless
[02:23] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:24] <kitche> kodat: it should made a couple of folders check to see if it did
[02:24] <oneseventeen> morphish: it is the installer, but I can't install it because of the errors, but I found a knowledge base entry at zend... thanks!
[02:24] <Nem|ltop> kitche, it appears to just have in it "alias wlan0 ndiswrapper"
[02:24] <boricua> SOMEONE HERE ATO HELP getting mic working in skype
[02:24] <kodat> kitche, it didnt do anything..i did unzip R115321.exe
[02:24] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, try looking in xorg.conf
[02:24] <morphish> oneseventeen: ln -sf /bin/bash /bin/sh
[02:24] <hamdinp> Daviey , thanks!  for your time
[02:24] <kodat> kitche, but nothin happened
[02:24] <mortal5> here's what i get:  E319: Sorry, the command is not available in this version
[02:24] <Daviey> hamdinp, is it working?
[02:24] <kitche> kodat: do you have unzip installed?
[02:24] <Rav|strangler> my bm4318 just started working after thinking the tutorial wasn't working
[02:24] <kodat> kitche, yep
[02:24] <morphish> oneseventeen: sh is dash and my matrox installer failed with all sorts of funky fresh errors too, we need bash for those
[02:25] <boricua> brb
[02:25] <wastrel> mortal5:  install the  vim-full  package.   edgy seems to only ship with vim-basic
[02:25] <bdragonmsl> maxflax, where's it at??
[02:25] <kitche> Nem|ltop: ok and you already tried sudo ifconfig wlan0 up?
[02:25] <Nem|ltop> kitche, sure haven't, hold
[02:25] <bdragonmsl> maxflax, sorry still very noobish
[02:25] <morphish> it is odd that so many people are hit by this dash vs bash thing but yet dash is the default one?
[02:25] <kodat> kitche, reinstalling..
[02:25] <Nem|ltop> kitche, no such device
[02:25] <kitche> kodat: hmm it should have made a foler or files to appear
[02:25] <wastrel> morphish:  dash is the new default which is why so many people are being hit with these problems :]
[02:26] <maxflax> bdragonmsl, /etc/x11/
[02:26] <Daviey> morphish, i think it's CRAZY bash is not the default!!!!
[02:26] <morphish> wastrel: yes, that is what strikes me as odd, why do that if it causes so many problems
[02:26] <kitche> Nem|ltop: lsmod |grep ndiswrapper just to make sure it's kernel module is loaded
[02:26] <kodat> kitche, didnt do anything at all = ( not even a prompt..do i have to put the file i wanna exe in some specific folder? or maybe specify where the file is?
[02:26] <mcrandello> I was actually hit by the dash bash thing from some script off the flipping CD!
[02:26] <wastrel> morphish:  ask the devs :]
[02:26] <wastrel> mcrandello:  did you file a bug?
[02:26] <kitche> kodat: well you only have to specify if it's in a different folder where you started unzip
[02:26] <kodat> i put it on desktop.. = (
[02:27] <kitche> kodat: ok cd Desktop then try to unzip it
[02:27] <mcrandello> wastrel, no b/c I couldn't get it to connect last night when it happened
[02:27] <Nem|ltop> kitche, first line: ndiswrapper  199188  0, 2nd line: usbcore    134912  8 ndiswrapper, usb storage, usblp, libusual, usbhid, ehci_hcd, ohci_hcd
[02:27] <mcrandello> I'll go do it right now
[02:27] <wastrel> <3
[02:28] <kitche> Nem|ltop hmm ok at least the kernel module is loaded but seems kinda strange that it doesn't see wlan0 since that's what ndiswrapper is aliased to
[02:28] <mcrandello> wastrel, would it be a bug in sh or a bug in the "cdromupgrade" script?
[02:28] <kodat> kitche, lol i have no desktop it says? no such file or directory
[02:28] <kitche> kodat: you are in your /home/<user>
[02:28] <morphish> oneseventeen: so did that fix your issue?
[02:28] <wastrel> mcrandello:  in the script
[02:28] <Nem|ltop> kitche, yeah, i really can't figure it out
[02:28] <psychiccyberfrea> anyone having apt update problems?
[02:28] <kodat> hmmm..no idea..says kodat@kodat-laptop
[02:29] <kitche> kodat: with a ~ at the end?
[02:29] <kodat> kitche, yah
[02:29] <hamdinp> Daviey: I only interested, This problem is old , approximately 1 week ago in netcafe
[02:29] <Daviey> hamdinp, so it aint your machine?
[02:29] <kitche> kodat: hmm well you can try using your filemanager to unzip it
[02:30] <xroach_> kodat does it work?
[02:30] <kodat> xroach, still trying to unzip it
[02:31] <oneseventeen> morphish: I found out the problem was caused because of an incompatibility of the installer's JRE with "certain system libraries"
[02:31] <DanSchnell> if i boot to cd with ubuntu on it, will it install automatically?
[02:31] <xroach_> u read the link i put? kodat
[02:31] <oneseventeen> morphish: simply commenting out a couple of lines in the installer fixed the issue
[02:31] <kodat> kitche, meh i dunno where filemanager is..im gona just try to find the seperate file
[02:31] <wastrel> DanSchnell:  You can boot it and not install
[02:31] <Nem|ltop> hmm
[02:31] <oneseventeen> morphish: I'm not sure if this would help you with other apps, but here is the link: http://www.zend.com/support/knowledgebase.php?kbid=184&view_only=1
[02:31] <kodat> xroach, yeah i saw, but thats the exe as well
[02:31] <kitche> kodat: filemanager is nautilius
[02:32] <DanSchnell> wastrel, so you can boot it and try it out without installing it?
[02:32] <radar1976> hello, I have no X install on my ubuntu box
[02:32] <morphish> oneseventeen: cool too, but that /bin/sh is link to dash will bite you down the road, uness you did switch it to bash
[02:32] <wastrel> DanSchnell:  if you have the desktop CD, yes.
[02:32] <xroach_> can u unzip in windows?
[02:32] <radar1976> how can I upgrade from dapper to edgy without having to install gksu
[02:32] <Nem|ltop> kitche, what should i do next?
[02:32] <Drago> does anyone know how to enable 3d acceleration ?? for an on board sis chip gfx card....
[02:32] <DanSchnell> wastrel, i dled the desktop iso and burned it to a CD
[02:32] <thin> ok, cd finished burning about to try to boot the new ubuntu as live cd. Wish me luck. (although I already bet my LUG friends $50 it wont work)
[02:32] <thin> later
[02:32] <oneseventeen> morphish: I'm not quite sure how to switch it to bash (still a newbie in areas)
[02:33] <wastrel> DanSchnell:  That will boot into Ubuntu and you can try it out.  It won't automatically install anything.
[02:33] <morphish> Drago: you can google for SiS dri drm, but i doubt that even if it works it would be worth the hassle, i did come across a page explaining driver install, but have not bookmarked it since i have no SiS card
[02:33] <kodat> kitche, well i supposably have nautilus..but i cant find it either >.< damnit im so unlucky
[02:33] <morphish> oneseventeen: i showed you a line with ln -sf in it, that should have done it ;)
[02:33] <DanSchnell> wastrel, so if something goes wrong, i can just restart, take out the CD, and boot normal?
[02:33] <wastrel> yes
[02:33] <mcrandello> oneseventeen, ln -sf /bin/bash /bin/sh
[02:34] <kitche> kodat: it should be under System
[02:34] <kodat> kitche, nope, its not under pref or admininstration
[02:35] <kodat> kitche, unless its under a different name besides nautilus
[02:35] <oneseventeen> morphish mcrandello: I did that, but I still get the same errors when trying to launch the installer
[02:35] <JoseStefan> How do I check what AGP rate I am running on ?
[02:35] <oneseventeen> morphish: the installer worked after I commented out the lines, but now I can't launch the application itself
[02:36] <xroach_> kodat http://nicolas.bonifas.free.fr/inspiron/bcmwl5.inf
[02:36] <cafuego> kodat: You got a bcm43xx?
[02:36] <Nem|ltop> buhh
[02:36] <kodat> xroach, excellent
[02:36] <cafuego> Oh, a 4309 (dell?)
[02:37] <kodat> xroach, now lets see if that does it
[02:37] <xroach_> u need bcmvl5.sys also ?
[02:37] <kodat> cafuego, i dunno what bcm3xx is
[02:37] <LuisMendes> how can I change the skin directory of mplayer? I can't find any configuration files...
[02:38] <cafuego> kodat: The chip that you're fetching the windows driver for.
[02:38] <Kingsqueak> http://www.kingsqueak.org/stuff/sdi_banner.png
[02:38] <cafuego> kodat: Some of that range wok fine with the open source driver.
[02:38] <Nem|ltop> whered kitche go
[02:38] <factotum> anyone here play tremulous? I thought i installed it, but cant find a dir of where is was installed
[02:39] <kodat> cafuego, i have no idea what ur talkin about =  ( you mean the driver im tryin to get?
[02:39] <avuton> Could anyone tell me what package asm-offsets.h is in? (should be in your /usr/include if you have it)
[02:39] <cafuego> kodat: Yes. The driver you're fetching is for a wireless chip that in many cases works great with a free (open) driver. However, if yours is a specific version (4309) the free droiver likely won't work.
[02:40] <cafuego> kodat: I'm assuming you would prefer to not load windows drivers into  Linux kernel if you didn't need to.
[02:40] <kodat> cafuego, well the driver im downloading is specific to my cad
[02:40] <wastrel> libklibc-dev: usr/lib/klibc/include/asm-i386/asm-offsets.h
[02:40] <kodat> cafuego, yeah i dont wanna..but i cant get my wireless to work at all
[02:40] <wastrel> linux-headers-2.6.15-22: usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-22/include/asm-i386/asm-offsets.h
[02:40] <cafuego> kodat: What does 'lspci | grep 43' say? 0 run in terminal...
[02:40] <laz45> maxflax: After i configure everything in menuconfig do i press esc-esc to exit and then make and make install?
[02:40] <avuton> wastrel: thanks
[02:40] <mcrandello> factotum, try "which tremulous.x86"
[02:41] <kodat> cafuego, my card is recognized, but its not scanning for networks
[02:41] <mcrandello> factotum, "sudo updatedb && locate tremulous" if that don't work
[02:41] <Nem|ltop> anyone else know anything about ndiswrapper?
[02:41] <cafuego> kodat: Did you install the firmware for it? (Won't work without firmware)
[02:41] <wastrel> avuton:  your kernel headers version is probably different.
[02:41] <_xXX_> buenas noches
[02:41] <mariano7> hey guys, I was wondering if someone can help me with installation of ubuntu on my tablet. I'm trying to install ubuntu; I get the menu to load and install. I pressed enter and I get the ubuntu logo with a progress bar. Then after a while I get a blank screen with a little flashing line on the upper right hand side. The system just hangs there.
[02:42] <kodat> cafuego, says..system peripheal: ricoh co ltd unknown device 083
[02:42] <avuton> wastrel: include2/asm/thread_info.h:50: error: asm/asm-offsets.h: No such file or directory
[02:42] <avuton> That's the problem, even with that package installed
[02:42] <kodat> but when i do lspci it shows the wireless card
[02:43] <cafuego> kodat: http://us.ubuntu.cafuego.net/pool/dapper-cafuego/bcm43xx/bcm43xx-firmware_1.3-1ubuntu1_all.deb
[02:43] <cafuego> kodat: Fetch and install that .deb... it contains files the open driver needs to make the card work.
[02:43] <wastrel> avuton:  dunno - maybe symlink that file to the asm-offsets.h you have ?
[02:43] <neorayden> hello i need a fan control for breezy badger
[02:43] <kodat> cafuego, and it doesnt matter that its a broadcom and not a dell card
[02:44] <avuton> Yeah, I'll try that, it'll probably break elsewhere with that :/
[02:44] <mariano7> now even the flashing line is gone
[02:44] <mariano7> I just have a dark screen
[02:44] <cafuego> kodat: It's not a dell, just a rebadged broadcom :-)
[02:44] <kodat> cafuego, alright i installed it..lets see if my eth1 exists
[02:45] <kitche> kodat: it might be wlan0
[02:45] <cafuego> kodat: You may need to run 'sudo rmmod bcm43xx; sudo modprobe bcm43xx' first.
[02:45] <kodat> kitche, well it shows up in terminal as eth1
[02:45] <cafuego> kitche: no
[02:45] <Nem|ltop> ah you return kitche
[02:45] <kitche> cafuego: my bcm43xx is always called wlan0 with ndiswrapper
[02:45] <mcrandello> does ndiswrapper work with atheros cards? And if so is the performance any better than madwifi?
[02:45] <cafuego> kitche: Yes, ndiswrapper is retarded that way.
[02:45] <neorayden> can any one tell me where i can get fan control software for my dell 5150 i have breezy badger installed
[02:46] <shadowhywind> does anyone know where the log of the bootup stuff is?
[02:46] <Nem|ltop> kitche, what should i do now with my wireless issue
[02:46] <cafuego> mcrandello: Why would you run a closed driver when there is an open one?
[02:46] <Kingsqueak> shadowhywind /var/log
[02:46] <kodat> cafuego, said that module bcm43xx doesnt exist in /proc/modules
[02:46] <soothsay> I have many Python packages being held back after the upgrade to Eft. Is there a reason for this? How can I update the packages?
[02:46] <kitche> Nem|ltop: well I would do some researching myself
[02:46] <cafuego> kodat: 'k
[02:46] <kitche> cafuego: ah you switched over to the native driver :)
[02:46] <kodat> cafuego, the modprobe did work though
[02:47] <kodat> cafuego, i thin
[02:47] <shadowhywind> Kingsqueak there are so many logs, can yah narrow it down a little?
[02:47] <Nem|ltop> kitche, can you be more specific? I've read several guides and i can't figure out what i could possibly be doing wrong
[02:47] <cafuego> kitche: yeah, it's been working fine (for me) for nearly a year now.
[02:47] <Kingsqueak> shadowhywind kern.log maybe?
[02:47] <shadowhywind> maybe its the boot log, hehe
[02:47] <mcrandello> cafuego, 1, the madwifi driver is still a binary blob, just supplied by "freindlier" parties, and 2, I have 4 days left on this download of knotes
[02:47] <cafuego> kodat: Does 'iwpriv eth1 scan' say anything?
[02:47] <atroWork> a bunch of python packages are being held back, any way I can tell why they aren't upgrading?
[02:48] <kodat> cafuego, man i wish i knew all these commands..this is wild
[02:48] <variant> atroWork: because some other package requires them
[02:48] <kitche> Nem|ltop: well if you want to make sure it really works I would uninstall the ndiswrapper package and compile it from source myself
[02:48] <neorayden> omg some help yall are thanks
[02:48] <kodat> cafuego, it says invalid command: scan
[02:48] <joincamp> huh?
[02:48] <mariano7> oh well, I guess i'm stuck with suse for a while
[02:48] <cafuego> kodat: Hmm, sorry ... 'iwlist eth1 scan' :-)
[02:49] <kodat> cafuego, no scan results
[02:49] <cafuego> Hrm
[02:49] <variant> kodat: your wifi net is in range?
[02:49] <cafuego> kodat: and 'iwconfig' ?
[02:49] <amicrawle> hey i cant  get klear dvb to run us cable on it how to
[02:49] <kodat> cafuego, yah all my other comps are connected fine, they are on xp
[02:50] <kodat> cafuego, the problem with that is im getting access point invalid
[02:50] <joincamp> does anyone use "switch user" and beryl?
[02:50] <atroWork> variant, how can I see those dependencies?
[02:50] <kodat> cafuego, but i am getting a dbm read..which i wasnt before
[02:50] <cafuego> kodat: *nod* That's a known issue, 'sudo iwconfig eth1 ap any'
[02:50] <neorayden> can someone tell me why i cant login and add a dir to the usr folder
[02:50] <joincamp> can there be multiple x sessions with beryl?
[02:50] <kitche> neorayden: you need to use sudo to do it
[02:50] <amicrawle> does any body know of a tv tuner that works with dapper  with a gui
[02:50] <kodat> error fo wireless request "set ap adress (8B14)
[02:51] <amicrawle> and dvr mode as well
[02:51] <cafuego> kodat: Hrm.  I am trying to install the latest Nvidia driver but get an error saying "An NVIDIA kernel module 'nvidia' appears to already be loaded in your kernel."
[02:52] <amicrawle> i dont want mythtv  in stalled
[02:52] <Kingsqueak> amicrawle they may have hardware info for you though
[02:52] <webhed> do I need to stop X or something in order to install the driver?
[02:52] <kodat> cafuego, in network settings and i suppose ot have something special in host..a specific ip adress..or anything in dns or general
[02:52] <variant> anyone know where to set default applications? like the movie player that opens by default for example
[02:53] <cafuego> kodat: if you run 'dmesg' do you see any errors about firmware?
[02:53] <franz> (newbie question) in installing ubuntu, what directories should i allocate their own partitions (or what are the recommended ones) ? :)
[02:53] <kodat> cafuego, it says eth1: link is not ready

[02:54] <cafuego> kodat: Could I get you tor eboot the macione?
[02:54] <nemish> having a problem with mdadm on edgy
[02:54] <kodat> cafuego, sure, brb
[02:54] <nemish> could of been a problem with dapper too but didn't try
[02:54] <Kingsqueak> webhed on the wiki somewhere it tells you how to fix that, basically you have to remove the restricted modules package and something else
[02:55] <webhed> the ubuntu wiki or some other one?
[02:55] <Kingsqueak> webhed you have a module conflict, I went through that here, it's fixable, I just forget exactly what I did
[02:55] <xroach> hey is it normal that this upgrdes to edgy about 15hours 14kts
[02:55] <badger> i need help
[02:55] <Kingsqueak> webhed ubuntu wiki
[02:55] <nemish> i created a raid5 accidentally (was typing too fast and not thinking) of hde, hdf, hdg
[02:55] <blazemonger> My friend that used to hate linux loves Ubuntu
[02:55] <nemish> instead of hde1, hdf1, hdg1
[02:55] <webhed> Kingsqueak: I'll check there now.
[02:55] <blazemonger> he regretted to me last night 'ok you were right about linux'
[02:56] <franz> (newbie question) in installing ubuntu, what directories should i allocate their own partitions (or what are the recommended ones) ? :-)
[02:56] <Kingsqueak> I put the wife and kid on Dapper a few weeks ago, haven't heard a peep out of them so far, I just had to setup all the browser plugins for them
[02:56] <nemish> so i tried blowing the raid away and creating it correctly but now mdstat shows md0 and md1 both raid 5 one with drives.. and other with 1st partition
[02:56] <Buglouse> how do i add a user to the list of sudoers
[02:56] <mcrandello> franz, definitely give /home it's own partition and maybe either /usr/local or /opt
[02:56] <wastrel> Buglouse:  add them to the admin group
[02:57] <bdragonmsl> Should I remove the xserver-xorg-video-nv -- NV display driver if Im about to install nvidia glx drivers??
[02:57] <Kingsqueak> !nvidia-glx
[02:57] <badger> i installed xubuntu on to a hard drive(removed and then put back again) and when i get to the first screen where it says the pc manufactuerer it says "1782-dick controller failure" and then i press F1 to boot(used to not do that before i took out the HDD it says "non-system disk error replace and strike any key when ready

[02:59] <badger> i need help
[02:59] <amicrawle> cmos is very old school
[02:59] <badger> please
[02:59] <Buglouse> i don't know if you know .. but how do i give sudo permission in Fedora?
[02:59] <bdragonmsl> wish me luck, about to install glx again
[02:59] <amicrawle> it is what coltrols all of your
[02:59] <blanky> ubotu shutup
[02:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shutup - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:59] <Buglouse> i cant get in the Fedora channel
[02:59] <joincamp> is anyone able to switch between x sessions while running beryl
[02:59] <joincamp> ?
[02:59] <mcrandello> franz, usually when you compile your own software it would go into /usr/local or /opt so that it's kept seperate from software that the system installs
[03:00] <mcrandello> at least that's how I always understood it
[03:00] <amicrawle> stuff  from cpu to ram to harddrive to cdroms etc:
[03:00] <badger> compaq presario 5170
[03:00] <blanky> !ubotu
[03:00] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[03:00] <cafuego> kodat: Crap. Oh well, back to ndiswrapper :-(
[03:00] <blanky> !limewire
[03:00] <ubotu> limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[03:00] <badger> how do i fix it?
[03:00] <blanky> !java
[03:00] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java  -  For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[03:00] <amicrawle> when you reboot you hit eather f1 f10 or f11 key
[03:00] <franz> mcrandello, i see ....thanks :-)
[03:00] <kodat> cafuego, yah well that isnt even workin either haha
[03:00] <amicrawle> then you will log into cmos
[03:00] <cafuego> kodat: You'll need to disable bcm43xx for that; add it in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[03:00] <Kingsqueak> webhed here's the stock nvidia-glx HOWTO -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:00] <blanky> !ati
[03:00] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:00] <amicrawle> and you can fix your stuff
[03:00] <badger> ok
[03:01] <badger> to what specs?
[03:01] <badger> ive been in it
[03:01] <webhed> king - reading now.... thanks
[03:01] <nemish> is there any sort of mdadm --destroy
[03:01] <amicrawle> i would go defualt
[03:01] <amicrawle> or make your cdrom 1st on the chane
[03:01] <badger> ok ill try and then if it dosent work ill come back in here
[03:01] <amicrawle> and then the hdd next
[03:01] <Kingsqueak> webhed did you do a manual nvidia install by chance? with their installer?
[03:01] <amicrawle> ok  i will work it is timming
[03:01] <webhed> I was trying using the one I downloaded from the nvidia site
[03:01] <kodat> cafuego, do i just type that in terminal?
[03:02] <joincamp> is anyone able to successfully switch between x sessions while running beryl?
[03:02] <amicrawle> right when the computer reboots
[03:02] <webhed> thats where I was getting the error
[03:02] <cafuego> kodat: 'sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist'
[03:02] <chuckyp> !xgl > joincamp
[03:02] <Kingsqueak> webhed me too, I can't find the link I had for that
[03:02] <webhed> from running the driver installer from the nvidia website
[03:02] <amicrawle> start punching thoes keys
[03:02] <webhed> ok
[03:02] <badger> it says press F1 to boot and f10 for something else i dont remember
[03:02] <cafuego> kodat: ... add a line for bcm43xx - you'll see how, there are others in there.
[03:02] <kitche> webhed: well you need the kernel sources to use the nvidia installer
[03:02] <amicrawle> f10 then
[03:02] <badger> but it changes things
[03:02] <franz> mrcrandello, another question, how much space do you usually allocated to these directories (/home, /usr/local, /opt) ?
[03:02] <badger> ok
[03:02] <chuckyp> kitche, webhed just the kernel headers are needed
[03:02] <badger> see you in 10
[03:02] <amicrawle> yes in big ways  becareful

[03:03] <Kingsqueak> webhed "version mismatch error" -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual?highlight=%28installer%29%7C%28nvidia%29
[03:03] <cafuego> kodat: Just on a line byiself there type "blacklist bcm43xx"
[03:03] <kodat> cafuego, i just added a blacklist yeah
[03:03] <kodat> cafuego, alright finally i did something right alone
[03:03] <cafuego> kodat: :-)
[03:04] <chuckyp> webhed, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`   then run the installer from nvidia after you have that.
[03:04] <Kingsqueak> uninstall nvidia-glx, nvidia-settings, and nvidia-kernel-common packages
[03:04] <ku> Could anyone help me with setting up an OpenDC client?
[03:04] <kodat> cafuego, now i just gotta figure out how to use ndis..says my hardware present : no
[03:04] <webhed> king: ok
[03:04] <kodat> cafuego, wish i could get this unzip thing to work..
[03:04] <chuckyp> kodat, gunzip
[03:05] <chuckyp> kodat, What type of file do you need to uncrompess?
[03:05] <kodat> chuckyp, supposably i have nautilus installed..but i cant find it
[03:05] <ruthven> does any one know what the Linux  equivalent to ipconfig and netstat is?
[03:05] <cafuego> kodat: Did you fetch the .inf and .sys files xroach_ told you about?
[03:05] <webhed> wait I'm getting two different suggestions - chuckyp and king which do you think I should do?
[03:05] <Asymmetry> ruthven, ifconfig and netstat
[03:05] <chuckyp> ruthven, well netstat is netstat ifconfig
[03:05] <kitche> ruthven: ifconfig and netstat
[03:05] <kodat> chuckyp, tryin to see if i can get this .exe to do it..doubt it will but i wanna just try
[03:05] <chuckyp> webhed, don't listen to me I came in late
[03:05] <webhed> lol
[03:05] <ruthven> thanks
[03:05] <jackyyll> Hi, how do i install eterm? Whenever i type "sudo apt-get install eterm" it gives me "E: Couldn't find package Eterm"
[03:05] <chuckyp> kodat, hrm.. yeah dunno if gunzip will handle exe's
[03:05] <kitche> !eterm

[03:11] <Done> ok
[03:11] <LjL> kodat, what are you trying to do again?
[03:11] <CrocoJet> your chipset is CX23883 ?
[03:11] <kitche> Intangir: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop then do sudo nvidia-xconfig
[03:11] <webhed> King: I ran the installer again and got the same message again "An NVIDIA kernel module 'nvidia' appears to already be loaded in your kernel."
[03:11] <CrocoJet> amicrawle, is your chipset is CX23883 ?
[03:11] <rntr> hey I installed ubuntu 5.10 and I currently have a dual head setup and the gdm crashes and locks the system when it goes to boot gdm. How can I config xorg to just use on monitor for now or whatever
[03:11] <kodat> LjL, tryin to peek into the files in this .exe, so i can update a driver
[03:11] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, hmm.
[03:11] <amicrawle> nope

[03:11] <chuckyp> LjL, self extracting exe he is trying to extract it.
[03:12] <amicrawle> Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture
[03:12] <bluefox83> webhed, modprobe -r nvidia
[03:12] <webhed> The message goes further, saying " This may be because it is in use (for example, by the X server), but may also happen if your kernel was configured without support for module unloading."
[03:12] <amicrawle> ntsc
[03:12] <LjL> chuckyp, kodat: depends on what it's actually compressed with... you mentioned cab, so i suppose you've tried orange

[03:13] <kodat> LjL, i just got linux..so i havent tryed anything lol..i been tryin to get nautilus to unzip it but it says my .exe doesnt exist..even though im in the desktop
[03:13] <webhed> ERROR: Module nvidia is in use
[03:13] <bluefox83> webhed, yeah i had that problem in debian..i had a hell of a time working around it..i think i eventually downloaded a new kernel and reinstalled the nvidia driver
[03:13] <kitche> !beryl > bdragonmsl
[03:13] <bluefox83> webhed, and you need to kill X to do this
[03:13] <ubuntu_> now this is the shit woooooooooooo hooooooooooooooo
[03:13] <kodat> LjL, well its from dell and they only package it in a .exe, i could look for it outside
[03:13] <chuckyp> webhed, well first you need to get out of X to install the nvidia driver
[03:13] <webhed> how do I kill X
[03:13] <LjL> ubuntu_: uh?
[03:13] <rntr> webhed, gdmstop
[03:13] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, What does iwconfig report?
[03:13] <amicrawle> no
[03:13] <badger> hello?
[03:13] <badger> it diddnt work
[03:13] <bluefox83> webhed, ctrl alt backspace
[03:14] <badger> or i diddnt do it wright
[03:14] <NemesisD> Asymmetry, iwconfig only lists lo, eth0, eth1 and sit0, no wlan0 :(
[03:14] <webhed> sudo: gdmstop: command not found
[03:14] <LjL> kodat: what i was asking for is whether i could legally get it from somewhere... anyway, have you tried unzip as well?
[03:14] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, any wireless extensions listed?
[03:14] <bdragonmsl> !beryl
[03:14] <NemesisD> Asymmetry, nope, for all of those it says no wireless extensions
[03:14] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ Please see #ubuntu-xgl for help with beryl. Thank You.
[03:14] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, hrm.
[03:14] <badger> i saved the config and rebooted but it says f10 computer setup
[03:14] <kodat> LjL, well im not tryin to get it illegally, i downloaded the .exe from dells website
[03:15] <webhed> when I control alt backspace its gonna dump me out the the login screen... then what? log in from there or start the terminal from there?
[03:15] <bdragonmsl> !compiz

[03:15] <chuckyp> kodat, try unzip
[03:15] <LjL> kodat: i am not saying *you* got it illegally, i'm asking if *i* can get it legally, so i can check it out and see if i can uncompress it ;)
[03:15] <bluefox83> oh crap..i forgot..that just restarts X
[03:15] <webhed> right
[03:15] <bluefox83> uhm...
[03:15] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, Not sure.
[03:15] <kitche> webhed: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop in a terminal
[03:15] <kodat> LjL, yah just search for the dell 1390 wireless card drivers
[03:15] <bluefox83> you might try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:16] <Falstiu2> to get a console (not an xterm) use alt+ctrl+F1
[03:16] <kodat> http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R115321&SystemID=INS_PNT_P4_5100&os=WNT5&osl=en&deviceid=7945&devlib=0&typecnt=1&vercnt=8&formatcnt=1&libid=5&fileid=152055
[03:16] <NemesisD> Asymmetry, that seems to be the response im getting from everybody, what should i do now?
[03:16] <Pelo> kodat  still haven'T solved that problem ????
[03:16] <Falstiu2> use alt-F7 to get back to xwindows (unless you stop it with gdm stop ofcourse)
[03:16] <kodat> Pelo, nope >.<
[03:16] <Pelo> :-(
[03:16] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, Check to see if there is a non-ndiswrapper driver for your Atheros chipset.
[03:16] <rayok> help? having problems either installing normal or booting after installing alternate.. its just black :/ install/boot hangs..  have an ati 9800 pro
[03:17] <kodat> Pelo, ive been here all freekin day..wireless giving me problems..ive tryin ndis now..i just need one more driver...even though ndis says that my hardware isnt present
[03:17] <NemesisD> Asymmetry, this driver is the windows driver from the dlink website...
[03:17] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, That would be what I refer to when I say an ndiswrapper driver. Find one written for Linux.
[03:18] <NemesisD> Asymmetry ok and when i do what am i going to do?
[03:18] <croach> is it normal to have 2  "section device " in xorg.conf
[03:18] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, use it.
[03:18] <LjL> kodat: ah, thanks... i'd ended up on a page, but there were a ton of files, for US non-US Japan etc... :o)
[03:18] <kodat> Pelo, well its just i think my stupid driver..once i get it going i think ill be ok
[03:18] <m0> hello, I am wondering, http://www.gnome.org/start/2.16/  this is to change the login screen
[03:18] <kitche> croach: yes
[03:18] <kodat> LjL, heh sure, i should thank you if u get it unzipped
[03:18] <Asymmetry> NemesisD, it's probably in the form of a kernel module. wpa_supplicant supports madwifi drivers (Atheros) if you need WPA support.
[03:18] <m0> is there a synamptic version to use?
[03:19] <chuckyp> m0, of what program?
[03:19] <NemesisD> i don't know what the heck i need nor how to install this driver but okay
[03:19] <m0> chuckyp: to change the login screen
[03:19] <kodat> Pelo, http://www.benwired.com/2006/03/15/my-new-laptop-dell-e1505/
[03:19] <croach> kitche, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BerylOnEdgy the ATI section where should i put those line?
[03:19] <chuckyp> m0, www.gnome-look.org
[03:19] <kodat> this guy fixed the same problem i have..but i suck at fixing it
[03:20] <chuckyp> m0, system > administration > login window
[03:20] <kitche> croach under where your open source ati drivers are
[03:20] <croach> kodat ist it working?
[03:20] <kodat> croach, nope
[03:20] <m0> chuckyp: I am using http://art.gnome.org/themes/gdm_greeter/1046  but where do I place the themes?
[03:20] <m0> chuckyp: where do I place them usually?
[03:20] <croach> kitche,  i did it but it doesnt work
[03:20] <LjL> kodat: let's see, it's taking a bit to download, site's not very fast...
[03:20] <m0> chuckyp: in home foldeR?
[03:21] <kodat> LjL, heh its not too bad, i was going at 500k
[03:21] <croach> the other "device has drivers "ati" "
[03:21] <Elazar> Is there a way to increase the number of available options for screen resolution post-install?
[03:21] <Pelo> kodat  what am I looking at on that link ?
[03:21] <m0> Drag and drop this theme into the gdmsetup tool to install
[03:21] <m0> Where is the gdmsetup tool
[03:21] <LjL> kodat: i was going at 60kb/s... a couple more connections helped, though ;)
[03:22] <DPackrat> How can I get grub to reload menu.lst to reflect what I have installed?
[03:22] <kodat> Pelo, that guy had the same problem as me, i got the same model as him and he used ndis to fix it..but i cant get it workin well haha
[03:22] <chuckyp> m0, if you open System > administration > Login Window.   You should be able to drag and drop the tar.gz right in that window to add it.  If not there is an add button.
[03:22] <chuckyp> DPackrat, if you edited the menu.1st and saved it it will be there.
[03:23] <chuckyp> kodat, check out ndisgtk  if you get that you can install windows drivers for your card with a graphical app.
[03:23] <chuckyp> !info ndisgtk
[03:23] <doctorow> Is this an appropriate place to ask support questions about Nautilus on Ubuntu?

[03:23] <chuckyp> !ask | doctorow
[03:23] <ubotu> doctorow: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:24] <kodat> chuckyp, yah thats what i have.i just need a .sys from that exe
[03:24] <Done> bluefox83, i forgot to mention that i can log on the XGL session
[03:24] <doctorow>  I updated to Edgy yesterday, and now whenever I boot, I get the error message "The Application 'Nautilus' has quit unexpectedly." I've googled for similar problems and their fixes, but none seem appropriate. Any help is appreciated.
[03:24] <Done> that is also gnome
[03:24] <chuckyp> kodat, did you try unzip instead of gunzip
[03:24] <Pelo> kodat  the screen resolution stuff is easy enough it's just a xorg.conf  editing ( but I can't help you there because I realy donT' know the specs for your screen) and I can'T help you with teh wireless stuff,  best of luck
[03:24] <xroach> kodat didnt the file work?
[03:24] <kodat> chuckyp, yeah it said my file didnt exist
[03:24] <ReconUnit411> hello
[03:24] <xroach> kodat or did u also need the other file?
[03:24] <kodat> xroach, i need the .sys too, u got 1 outta thte 2
[03:24] <kodat> Pelo, well i havent gotten to the resolution, i was talkin about the wireless hehe
[03:25] <xroach> kodat: try google
[03:25] <Elazar> Is there a way to increase the number of available options for screen resolution post-install?
[03:25] <chuckyp> kodat, what is the link to the driver download?
[03:25] <kodat> xroach, yeah i just see a bunch of linsys stuff..i dont wanna put in the wrong .sys
[03:25] <LjL> kodat, do try unzip. it works.
[03:25] <kodat> chuckyp, ljl is downloading it to see if he can get it, hehe
[03:25] <chuckyp> Elazar, yes edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf or dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:25] <LjL> kodat, type "sudo apt-get install unzip"
[03:25] <kodat> unzip is instaled
[03:25] <kodat> ljl unzip is installed
[03:26] <ReconUnit411> ummm I am new to ubuntu but I am a fast learner. I am on the phone with a friend and thats how I got here. I was wondering if I cound get some help some time
[03:26] <LjL> kodat: ok, where is the file? on the desktop you said?
[03:26] <kodat> LjL, but when i do unzip R115321.exe it gives me a file doesnt exist message
[03:26] <adele> I have a question... whenever I scroll in a window (eg xchat or firefox) then the contents doesnt seem to refresh right away.. like there is a slight delay... how do I fix that?
[03:26] <chuckyp> !ask | ReconUnit411
[03:26] <ubotu> ReconUnit411: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:26] <xroach> kodat maybe if u install it in windows it will extract the files so u can use em?
[03:26] <m0> what is the commandline to goto the login screen?
[03:26] <doctorow> Thanks anyway.
[03:26] <kodat> xroach, well i dont have windows on this comp hehe..id have to load up my other computer..im too lazy
[03:26] <LjL> m0: you mean, to restart the graphical interface?
[03:26] <Pelo> ReconUnit411  best place to start for help is in the ubuntu forum,  then when you have a specifc issue this channel
[03:26] <chuckyp> m0, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[03:27] <Elazar> chuckyp: When I enter sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg into a terminal window, nothing happens.
[03:27] <m0> LjL, since i am using AIGLX, I can't see my loggoff dialog
[03:27] <LjL> kodat, if the file exists, it exists. you're in the wrong directory probably. is the file on the desktop?
[03:27] <chuckyp> Elazar, it just goes back to prompt?
[03:27] <Elazar> chuckyp: Correct.
[03:27] <LjL> m0: what chuckyp said, or ctrl+alt+backspace (which will kill your X abruptly)
[03:27] <kodat> LjL, yeah its in desktop, and so is my terminal..so i dunno why it says that
[03:27] <ReconUnit411> thankyou
[03:27] <chuckyp> m0, you could restart X with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[03:27] <Pelo> ReconUnit411  mean while , you can add applications throught the synaptic package manager ( system  , admin )  and for the rest just play aruond with it a little
[03:27] <withaY> how can you assign a keyboard shortcut (in keyboard shortcut) to a windows key combination?
[03:27] <ReconUnit411> ll go there now

[03:29] <adele> I have a question... whenever I scroll in a window (eg xchat or firefox) then the contents doesnt seem to refresh right away.. like there is a slight delay... how do I fix that?
[03:30] <grouchytim> thanx chuckyp
[03:30] <chuckyp> Elazar, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  should work make sure you are typing it right.
[03:30] <Elazar> chuckyp: I'm getting denied access to just about everything, if that helps.
[03:30] <Pelo> hFrench  where in montreal anyway ?
[03:30] <Elazar> chuckyp: I've copied and pasted it, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg just brings me back to prompt.
[03:30] <hFrench> Irish pub near crescent
[03:30] <Elazar> chuckyp: I can't adjust system time, manage packages, nothing.
[03:31] <chuckyp> Elazar, is it prompting you for a password?
[03:31] <kitche> adele: your probably using the vesa driver for xorg
[03:32] <Elazar> chuckyp: When I try to adjust system time, no. It just says: "The configuration could not be loaded. You are not allowed to access the system configuration."
[03:32] <hFrench> cool thanks
[03:32] <Steven_M> Hi all
[03:32] <adele> kitche: should I install ATI drivers?
[03:32] <Steven_M> have any of you ever heard of an open source program (regardless of platform) that monitors call bell systems in assisted living facilities to see how long it takes caregivers to answer them?
[03:32] <chuckyp> Elazar, are you logged in as the first user that was created on the system or one you created seperately?
[03:32] <kitche> adele: do you have an ATI card? you can use the open source drivers if you want less of a headache
[03:32] <kodat> LjL, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28761/
[03:32] <adele> kitche can I pm u
[03:33] <Elazar> chuckyp: I installed from the alternative CD then ended up installing ubuntu-desktop after the initial boot-up. I was never prompted to install a user.
[03:33] <LjL> kodat, you're *not* in the desktop
[03:33] <kitche> adele: yes but are you identified
[03:33] <factotum> Steven_M: a stopwatch?
[03:33] <kodat> LjL, Oo i thought i was
[03:33] <adele> identified?
[03:33] <Elazar> chuckyp: I ended up creating the user and setting the password and creating the home directory in recovery mode.
[03:33] <LjL> kodat: type "cd ~/Desktop" (or actually, you could just type "cd Desktop" from where you are)
[03:33] <factotum> hehe i kid
[03:33] <withaY> that's messed up
[03:33] <LjL> kodat: you are in your home directory. the desktop is just a subdirectory of that
[03:33] <xroach> kodat: u should try the linksys drives?
[03:33] <kitche> adele: you have to register with nickserv to pm me
[03:34] <LjL> kodat: (if you're used to Windows: the "Desktop" folder is just a subfolder of the generic "C:\Documents and Settings\YourUser" folder)
[03:34] <Pelo> gonna try rebooting,  wish me luck
[03:34] <kodat> HO
[03:34] <Elazar> chuckyp: That should have been "create a user," not "install a user," sorry. :P
[03:34] <chuckyp> Elazar, okay well you need to log in as the user you initially created when you first installed.  Or you need to add your current user to the sudoers file
[03:34] <adele> oh
[03:34] <kodat> LjL, It unziped..woo
[03:34] <Elazar> chuckyp: Which file is that?
[03:34] <kodat> LjL, very sloppy unzip..files all over the place
[03:34] <chuckyp> Elazar, can you get in the administration > users and groups
[03:35] <Elazar> chuckyp: Nope. Same error as when I try to adjust system time.
[03:35] <Flamekebab> quick question - is there a good application for graphically portraying file system use, like a pie chart showing where the biggest files and folders are?
[03:35] <LjL> kodat, yeah, you could have specified a destination directory though... remember for next time: "unzip <filename> -d <directory>"
[03:35] <chuckyp> Elazar, hrm... sudo adduser $user admin, where you replace $user with the name of the user
[03:35] <adel> strange everyone owns these nicknames
[03:35] <Elazar> Flamekebab: IF you're using 6.1, Applications > Accessories > Disk Usage Analyzer is nice.
[03:36] <chuckyp> Elazar, when it asks for a password enter the one that the original first user on the system had.
[03:36] <Elazar> chuckyp: Ah, that might be what happened. I did useradd, not adduser. :P
[03:36] <LjL> kodat, anyway, once you have unzip installed, you should also be able to open zip file through FileRoller, which is a GUI program, which you have installed by default... though maybe it'd refuse opening an .EXE
[03:36] <kodat> LjL, ah..well..i cant use the .sys in ndis..i thought i could..i have the .inf..but it says my hardware isnt present
[03:36] <chuckyp> kodat, install ndisgtk and try that.
[03:36] <kodat> LjL, i reinstalled it
[03:37] <LjL> kodat: ah well, now you're in a realm that's unknown to me - wired network only here ;)
[03:37] <Pelo> ok I'm getting that   "nautilus has quit unexpectedly" error message to , any suggestions ?
[03:37] <kodat> LjL, lol
[03:37] <kodat> LjL, now the hardware was found..sooo..how the hell do i see if my wireless works now
[03:37] <xroach> kodat nm-applicant
[03:38] <Steven_M> factotum: I mean somethiong that would automatically record stats on 25 different call bells
[03:38] <azureal> aaaaaaahhh
[03:38] <azureal> so basically everything compiled from source is affected by dist-upgrade!?!!?!
[03:38] <Kingsqueak> if you compiled against libs, sure
[03:38] <kodat> xroach, mm command not found
[03:38] <chuckyp> kodat, well you have to use modprobe etc... if you are following the ndiswrapper instructions then after that you should be able to use network-manage4r and view any networks within range.
[03:38] <Kingsqueak> change the lib versions and your compiled apps may likely bitch
[03:39] <xroach> kodat: sudo nm-applicant
[03:39] <kodat> chuckyp, mm i have seen no ndis instructions heh
[03:39] <azureal> omg...dist-upgrade changed my compiled app's version, i think =/
[03:39] <chuckyp> kodat, hold up let me get you the page
[03:39] <kodat> chuckyp, heh thanks ~_~
[03:39] <chuckyp> kodat, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[03:40] <Noah0504> Can anyone help me get my Broadcom 4318 wireless card working under Edgy?
[03:40] <chuckyp> azureal, did you use checkinstall and make a deb?
[03:40] <chuckyp> Noah0504, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[03:40] <_goofy_>
[03:40] <TheWheat> hi! does anybody know how to disable search-as-you-type in nautilus?
[03:40] <azureal> chuckyp, no, i'm not familiar with this procedure...
[03:40] <withaY> azureal, it couldn't do that unless what you compiled was a replacement of an existing package that had the same name.  it might AFFECT it due to lib linking, though.
[03:41] <azureal> i guess you're right; libs are diff now
[03:41] <chuckyp> TheWheat, probably try sudo gconf-editor and poke around in there.
[03:41] <azureal> withaY, why would it hijack a lib?
[03:41] <boris55> still taking questions on edgy?
[03:41] <chuckyp> !ask | boris55
[03:41] <ubotu> boris55: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:41] <azureal> withaY, where it = aptitude.
[03:41] <Noah0504> chuckyp, Is ndiswrapper the way to go?  I've been trying to use bcm43xx-fwcutter.
[03:42] <withaY> azureal, what do you mean by "hijack a lib?"  (maybe i should scroll up & read the rest of your problem.)
[03:42] <boris55> i thought I was in #ubuntu+1
[03:42] <chuckyp> Noah0504, I'm not sure perhaps search the forums for your specific model.  See how others have gotten it working.
[03:42] <enyawix> that is the easiest way to upgread?
[03:42] <chuckyp> boris55, #ubuntu+1 is closed because edgy is current release
[03:42] <azureal> withaY, well no... i just mean why would it do this to me =P mplayer is my friend....and now the gui portion seems messed up
[03:42] <Noah0504> chuckyp, Okay, thanks.
[03:42] <m0> hello, which svn is recommended for gnome?
[03:42] <gnu2it2> why does firefox eat so much cpu? even when idle
[03:42] <chuckyp> enyawix, /topic
[03:42] <constantine-xvi> would anyone know why hal isin
[03:42] <constantine-xvi> sorry
[03:43] <m0> the dialog says, "You need subversion package insalle to use this feature"
[03:43] <constantine-xvi> would anyone know why hal isint reporting my battery time right?
[03:43] <boris55> you sure. I was there two nights ago.
[03:43] <TheWheat> chuckyp: thanks. will give it a go.
[03:43] <chuckyp> TheWheat, i'm sure its in there somewhere.
[03:43] <azureal> withaY, would recompiling mplayer fix this?
[03:43] <earl_> hello guys. how does one go about updating from edgy release candidate to the edgy release?
[03:43] <Pelo> earl_  carefully
[03:44] <earl_> indeed
[03:44] <mcrandello> first you sacrifice a small goat to the dark lords
[03:44] <chuckyp> earl_, just sudo apt-get updat && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade would do it.
[03:44] <chuckyp> mcrandello, lol
[03:44] <Elazar> chuckyp: Tried sudo adduser, no change.
[03:44] <root> king or cheaply: I uninstalled the nvidia stuff and now can't get into X. I get an error. I'm running ircii from console now.
[03:44] <jrattner> QUESTION: How do I import a font? or where should I put it
[03:44] <earl_> mcrandello - do i then have to collect 5x [Lean Wolf Flank]
[03:44] <chuckyp> earl_, as long as your system is up to date you are at the final release?
[03:44] <withaY> azureal, let me get this straight:  you compiled your own mplayer and installed it in dapper rather than installing from ubuntu repos, and then when you upgraded to edgy it broke?
[03:44] <Pelo> earl_  right now I am having problems with nautils after upgrading, you might want think about it before doing it
[03:44] <LjL> earl_: just use the automatic updating feature
[03:44] <chuckyp> !fonts | jrattner
[03:44] <ubotu> jrattner: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[03:44] <st3v3dnd> I just followed the walkthrough at http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/XGL and when I try launching beryl, I get  "XGL Absent, checking for NVIDIA Nvidia Absent, assuming AIGLX beryl: No composite extension" Where can I start trying to figure out what's wrong?
[03:44] <mcrandello> earl_, there's an incantation but I haven't got that far yet
[03:44] <ubotu> jrattner: No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, and gsfonts-x11 , No fonts in mplayer? see !mplayer
[03:44] <Daktyls> speaking of edgy
[03:45] <azureal> withaY, yep.
[03:45] <earl_> yeah. i just got edgy release candidate (btw i'm on kde so nautilus won't be a problem) the other day, and i'ma try dist-upgrade now i guess
[03:45] <chuckyp> earl_, as long as you've been installing updates with update-manager you are current.
[03:45] <LjL> earl_, i think the only real problem is that some of the mirrors might still be kind of unresponsive due to the load.
[03:45] <root> can someone assist? I uninstalled nvidia-glx and now can't start X. I reinstalled nvidia-glx but I get an error saying I can't start GDM.
[03:45] <constantine-xvi> would anyone know why hal (and therfore the battery applet) isint reporting my battery time right?
[03:45] <earl_> yeah i noticed it took quite a while
[03:45] <withaY> azureal, please tell me you installed in /usr/local and not just /usr :)
[03:46] <earl_> i just did apt-get upgrade
[03:46] <earl_> before coming here
[03:46] <root> ahh chuckyp: I accidently called you cheaply. I forgot your username.
[03:46] <earl_> should i bother with dist-upgrade?
[03:46] <chuckyp> constantine-xvi, cuz batter support sux
[03:46] <mcrandello> okay here's an easy one- does anyone know off the top of their head how to get ahold of the source code for the madwifi drivers that were released with Dapper?
[03:46] <LjL> root: type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", try selecting the "nvidia" driver first, and then doing "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" -- if that fails, do it again, but select the "nv" driver
[03:46] <Daktyls> I have the following problem with upgrading to edgy: http://pastebin.ca/225640
[03:46] <mcrandello> earl_, back up EVERYTHING first
[03:46] <chuckyp> earl_, well you might have to if you haven't updated in a while.
[03:46] <mcrandello> especially /etc
[03:46] <earl_> lol
[03:46] <hoovs> I'm doing an install on my laptop and only have a small part of the screen resolution working, so I can't see the bottom of the winows to select the options.  I know I can move the windows under the gnome panel somehow.  I did it installing dapper but forget.  does anyone know how to do that?
[03:46] <earl_> it's been installed for maybe 36 hours
[03:46] <chuckyp> mcrandello, he's just installing updates not dist-upgrading from dapper
[03:46] <constantine-xvi> it worked for the past 2 releases, and on suse
[03:46] <earl_> nothing to back up
[03:46] <Elazar> chuckyp: Tried sudo adduser, no change.
[03:47] <mcrandello> chuckyp, still
[03:47] <mcrandello> ;)
[03:47] <azureal> withaY, i just kept its default directory.. i dont usu. give sudo make install parameters, if that's what you're asking
[03:47] <LjL> earl_, it probably won't make any difference to run dist-upgrade now. anyway, i run dist-upgrade daily
[03:47] <root> ok gotta drop outta here to try - thanks :)
[03:47] <mcrandello> updating within the release is usually pretty safe
[03:47] <earl_> LjL: yeah. that's what i thought... i thought dist-upgrade would be if i was still on dapper.
[03:47] <chuckyp> Elazar, why did you have to create this user can't YOu just log in under the original user that was created on install?
[03:47] <LjL> Daktyls: i think the mirrors are simply down due to the high load. either wait, or try different mirrors
[03:47] <Frederick> folks does anyone ever set a Genius VideoCam Look to work in ubuntu? Ive found this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=513391#post513391 I dunno if this is still valid
[03:47] <Daktyls> LjL: it's ben like this for two days :[
[03:48] <Daktyls> *been
[03:48] <mcrandello> seriously though I want to try compiling the version of madwifi from dapper into the new kernel it's the only version on any distro I've tried that ever worked right
[03:48] <Elazar> chuckyp: I already told you, I wasn't prompted to create a user during install. One was never created. I had to go to recovery mode to do it from CLI.
[03:48] <Daktyls> I can't download headers of any sort, so I guess it is just a server bandwidth problem
[03:48] <[GuS] > Au revoir, bonne Nuit!! Bye!
[03:48] <LjL> earl_: yes and no... dist-upgrade is supposed to be smarter about handling "big" upgrades like going from a distribution to another. but then, we have "update-manager" for that, which should be even smarter. and "dist-upgrade" won't change your distribution anyway, unless you change it yourself in sources.list
[03:48] <withaY> azureal, in any event, try just installing the mplayer found in edgy's repo.
[03:48] <earl_> yeah
[03:49] <Elazar> chuckyp: There is no "original user." I was never prompted for a root password, either. Had to set that in recovery mode CLI was well.
[03:49] <earl_> alright, thanks guys, i guess i'm all set then
[03:49] <Daktyls> I suppose I shall have to wait until next week, thanks for confirming my suspicion
[03:49] <chuckyp> Elazar, i dunno perhaps someone else can help with fixing the sudo problems you have.  You will probably have to reboot in recovery mode to fix most of it.  But I wouldn't know where to begin.
[03:49] <withaY> azureal, hopefully it'll just install over what you had.
[03:49] <LjL> Daktyls: i know. try editing your /etc/apt/sources.list and adding a nation's abbreviation (i suggest trying se. or he.) before the URL -- i.e. archive.ubuntu.com becomes, says, se.archive.ubuntu.com
[03:49] <root> I got "xserver-xorg is broken or not fully installed."
[03:49] <chuckyp> Elazar, it doesn't prompt for root password just password for default user thats the hole point of sudo.
[03:49] <chuckyp> root, sudo aptitude reinstall xserver-xorg
[03:49] <azureal> withaY, first of all, i don't like how i'm forced to fix these problems now....why couldn't i just keep the source?
[03:49] <CorpseFeeder> i have problem installing the nvidia drivers after installing edgy...  The nvidia installer tells me I have to run it in runlevel 3 by typing telinit 3, but when I do that it just loads up the graphical desktop log-in... Help! what do I do?
[03:50] <chuckyp> root, I would try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg first though.
[03:50] <azureal> withaY, perhaps i should remove mplayer, then recompile?
[03:50] <kitche> CorpseFeeder: you have to stop gdm
[03:50] <chuckyp> CorpseFeeder, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop  then run the installer
[03:50] <Elazar> chuckyp: K, thanks.
[03:50] <CorpseFeeder> thanks
[03:50] <foomonkey> I am having a rough time with apt-get. It keeps dying saying "files list file for package 'libmusicbrainz4c21' is missing final newline." Where is this 'files list' and how can I fix it?
[03:50] <azureal> withaY, because i had already tried a reinstall w/ edgy, but gui seems permanently broken
[03:50] <Viper550> oh yeah, did anyone notice that on Edgy, Firefox has it's correct icon now?
[03:50] <enyawix> edgy stable? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281098
[03:50] <azureal> Viper550, "correct icon" ?
[03:50] <enyawix> not looking good
[03:51] <bdragonmsl> Does anyone have compiz running?
[03:51] <chuckyp> Viper550, it does but not when its in the window list.
[03:51] <kodat> anyone know if in network settings im suppose to have something in Hosts..like some other ips
[03:51] <mcrandello> someone here has to be fairly familiar with navigating the repositories or using apt well enough to help me please I'm past wailing and well into gnashing, next up comes tearing my own hair out and flaggelation
[03:51] <Viper550> it used to have just this blue globe without the fox...oh
[03:51] <Flannel> Viper550: that's because of Mozilla changing it's policy

[03:51] <azureal> i had a heated argument about firefox icon today
[03:51] <chuckyp> Viper550, yeah i noticed but in the window list it still has the old art.
[03:51] <chuckyp> lol
[03:51] <Viper550> I know...I thought they would dump Firefox...but this shows that Ubuntu is truly independent of Debian!
[03:51] <withaY> azureal, sorry.  it's just the nature of doing an upgrade where a lot of libs have changed.  something to do the next time you compile from source: create a .deb package.  look up "checkinstall" for an easy way to do it.  it'll make things more managable for you in the future.
[03:52] <bdragonmsl> It says that I have no screens found on display 0.0
[03:52] <withaY> Elazar, if you hold on just a min for me to scroll back & read through your issues, i might be able to help
[03:52] <chuckyp> withaY, and when you make your deb just make the version really high then apt-get will never install over it.
[03:52] <Viper550> hello knoppix user
[03:52] <chuckyp> azureal, ^^^^^^
[03:52] <chuckyp> withaY, sry
[03:52] <azureal> that is so lame!
[03:52] <chuckyp> bdragonmsl, xgl support is in #ubuntu-xgl
[03:53] <kodat> hmm..are there any more themes i can download besides what ubuntu offers
[03:53] <chuckyp> kodat, www.gnome-look.org
[03:53] <withaY> azureal, the other alternative is not to upgrade.  same is true on ANY os when you're compiling from source.
[03:53] <chuckyp> !themes | kodat

[03:53] <foomonkey> I am having a rough time with apt-get. It keeps dying saying "files list file for package 'libmusicbrainz4c21' is missing final newline." Where is this 'files list' and how can I fix it?
[03:54] <chuckyp> foomonkey, sudo apt-get update  then try again
[03:54] <azureal> withaY, you'd say the same for gentoo?
[03:54] <foomonkey> I tried deleting everything out of /var/cache/apt/archives and rerunning my apt-get and it still died on the same thing
[03:54] <chuckyp> foomonkey, if not it could be that the repos are getting hammered right now as well.
[03:54] <foomonkey> Don't know., i upgraded one machine to edgy at the same time this other one died
[03:54] <Ninja562> hello, Does anyone know how to add a Dvorak keyboard layout in Dapper?
[03:54] <m0> how easy is it to change Gaim Skins
[03:54] <chuckyp> foomonkey, sudo apt-get clean and sudo apt-get update  then try again.  If not try aptitude sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install packagename
[03:55] <rbil> chuckyp: what do u mean by getting hammered?
[03:55] <m0> And where can we download GAIM Skins
[03:55] <foomonkey> actually, this error started before edgy came out
[03:55] <chuckyp> m0, dunno perhaps #gaim or ##gaim whatever it is.
[03:55] <m0> oki
[03:55] <chuckyp> rbil, traffic
[03:55] <Pelo> mcrandello  were you the one with the nautilus problem earlier ?
[03:55] <kodat> oh thats sick
[03:55] <kodat> can make it look like a mac
[03:55] <kodat> haha
[03:55] <withaY> azureal, absolutely.
[03:55] <rbil> chuckyp: malicious or just heavy traffic?
[03:55] <azureal> withaY, well...ok...suppose I do decide to use this checkinstall thing.... what are the steps now?  configure, make, checkinstall, make install? or
[03:55] <chuckyp> kodat, yeap can make it look like anythign you want.
[03:55] <mcrandello> Pelo, nope I'm the one who's getting 3bytes per hour on the wireless after upgrading
[03:55] <webhed> To whoever it was that said to sudo aptitude reinstall xserver-xorg, thanks. That fixed it :)
[03:55] <slop|lap> help! : when trying to do apt-get update after adding repos, i'm getting this message : Temporary failure resolving 'packages.freecontrib.org'
[03:56] <kodat> chuckyp, sweet
[03:56] <chuckyp> azureal, when I installed mplayer from source in dapper I created a deb.   However, now i just use the one from the repos.
[03:56] <jordan_> azureal, ./configure make checkinstall
[03:56] <azureal> k
[03:56] <TheWheat> chuckyp: cant seem to find any search as you type feature in gconf-editor :( do you know if its a gtk feature or something because i know gimp has the same feature
[03:56] <xroach_> kodat did u get the file?
[03:56] <azureal> thx
[03:57] <withaY> azureal, when using checkinstall, the steps are configure, make, checkinstall -D.  no make install.  checkinstall will install for you (unless you give it the option to not install, but it installs by default).
[03:57] <AkumAPRIME> hey, what nethack should I use?
[03:57] <kodat> xroach, yeah i did, finally was able to unzip it
[03:57] <Pelo> anyway to go back to dapper ?
[03:57] <chuckyp> TheWheat, did you look under nautilus or apps > nautilus  ?/ those are the places I would check.
[03:57] <azureal> withaY, ok, thx
[03:57] <kodat> xroach, but the wireless i dont know if its workin..even tho its givin me signs that it should..im talkin to ppl on aim so i dont wanna disconnect to see
[03:57] <Nutubuntu> What is the command that displays the alsa console in a terminal? I've suddenly lost sound in Dapper for some reason ...
[03:57] <chuckyp> TheWheat, or perhaps google.  I'm not sure how to turn it off though.
[03:57] <chuckyp> Nutubuntu, alsa-mixer
[03:57] <kodat> but my wifi radar isnt getting any signals.
[03:57] <Nutubuntu> thanks chuckyp :)
[03:57] <withaY> azureal, aptitude isn't going to remove mplayer if you installed it by compiling it from source.  aptitude will only uninstall deb packages that have been installed.
[03:58] <xroach_> kodat # modprobe ndiswrapper
[03:58] <AkumAPRIME> when I apt-get install nethack, I see several options... I DLed nethack gnome, but it keeps crashing. any recommendations?
[03:58] <mcrandello> Pelo, got a dapper CD?
[03:58] <azureal> withaY, i did both =/
[03:58] <withaY> ah.
[03:58] <maxflax> I was thinking about compiling the latest kernel.. 2.6.19 .. does it work on edgy?
[03:58] <withaY> azureal, good luck.  :)
[03:58] <Heritz> Guys, how can I start the terminal from the keyboard? any shortcut?
[03:58] <Pelo> mcrandello  yeah,  but I would rather not re-install and loose all my customising
[03:58] <Nutubuntu> Hm ... that's interesting: alsa-mixer gives me the command-not-found bash error
[03:58] <Flannel> Heritz: alt-f2
[03:58] <Heritz> Thanks Flannel!
[03:58] <Heritz> :D
[03:58] <mcrandello> there's the rub
[03:58] <Flannel> Heritz: er, that's a run command anyway
[03:58] <azureal> to*
[03:58] <TheWheat> chuckyp: apps > nautilus. there is no nautilus folder in the root directory. btw im using kubuntu if that makes any difference. i've search online but cant find anything that helps :(
[03:59] <voltz> Heritz, preferences/keyboard shortcuts and make your own
[03:59] <mcrandello> back up /etc and /home onto a CD then put /home at least on it's own partition
[03:59] <chuckyp> TheWheat, apps > nautilus > preferences > search bar type
[03:59] <manmadha> how to play these type of formats in totem....."mms://stream.onet.pl/media.wsx?" can any one give the links for that....?
[03:59] <maxflax> I was thinking about compiling the latest kernel.. 2.6.19 .. does it work on edgy?
[03:59] <azureal> withaY, lol, imagine if i had not compiled fluxbox and instead used the ubuntu package...lol
[03:59] <jadams> help!
[03:59] <Heritz> Flannel: Ya, but I want the terminal window opened just pressing some keys :D
[03:59] <poningru> blaargh
[03:59] <poningru> jadams: whatsup?
[03:59] <jadams> I'm mid-dist-upgrade to edgy and I'm getting this: locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
[03:59] <kodat> mm
[03:59] <MarcN> manmadha: use mimms to download mms streams, then use totem or gxine to view them
[03:59] <chuckyp> TheWheat, well if you are using kubuntu why ar eyou using nautilus?
[03:59] <kodat> xroach, what do i do with that stuff
[03:59] <poningru> jadams: make sure you have ubuntu-desktop installed
[03:59] <withaY> azureal, yeah, you'd be f'ed.
[04:00] <jordan_> Nutubuntu, There is no dash, alsamixer
[04:00] <jrattner> Question: How do I take my profile and information from mozilla firefox on my old install and use it on a new fresh install?
[04:00] <jrattner> ?
[04:00] <poningru> jrattner: it should have automatically used it
[04:00] <chuckyp> jrattner, grab your .firefox folder out of your home or it may be .mozilla
[04:00] <jrattner> poningru, im on a fresh install
[04:00] <xroach_> does it say its loaded?
[04:00] <xroach_> kodat
[04:00] <Nutubuntu> jordan_ - thanks :)
[04:00] <manmadha> MarcN, thank u...But the totem unable to play it.....saying that there is no input plugin to handle that......
[04:00] <jrattner> chuckyp, and just stick in in my new home?
[04:00] <withaY> jrattner, if it didn't automatically do it, just copy your .mozilla folder to your new home folder.
[04:00] <chuckyp> jrattner, yea .mozilla folder put that in your new home
[04:00] <sanmarcos> anybody else is having problems with usplash not working in edgy, and gzip failing on apt-get update?
[04:00] <kodat> xroach, sup
[04:01] <xroach_> does it say its loaded
[04:01] <chuckyp> jrattner, that will keep all your bookmarks and everythign for your previous user.
[04:01] <poningru> jrattner: ah take the old .mozilla or .firefox folder and transfer it to your new comp and rename it ot .mozilla
[04:01] <jadams> poningru: thanks, I'll give that a shot
[04:01] <MarcN> manmadha: use the command line tool   mimms to download the mms stream first.
[04:01] <jordan_> Nutubuntu, No problem, I actually just used apropose alsa to figure it out just now :)
[04:01] <jadams> ouch, this is frightening
[04:01] <jadams> all of my fonts are gone, basically
[04:01] <manmadha> MarcN, okk..
[04:01] <xroach_> kodat, http://dossy.org/archives/000110.html
[04:01] <chuckyp> !fonts | jadams
[04:01] <ubotu> jadams: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[04:01] <xroach_> kodat, http://dossy.org/archives/000110.html
[04:01] <ubotu> jadams: No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, and gsfonts-x11 , No fonts in mplayer? see !mplayer
[04:01] <poningru> jadams: oh right... about htat
[04:01] <poningru> thats a bug
[04:01] <TheWheat> chuckyp: I'm looking for a file manager that acts similar to windows explorer. i want to have my files arranged by type and when i type 'a' twice i want it to highlight the 2nd file starting with 'a' not. in konqueror it searches based on file type not file name since i sort it by file type :(
[04:01] <poningru> for upgrade
[04:01] <sanmarcos> does the mplayer in multiverse contain all the good codecs?
[04:01] <poningru> I thought that was fixed
[04:02] <jadams> poningru: well, it seems broken to me  :)
[04:02] <jadams> known solution?
[04:02] <poningru> jadams: just go ahead and apt-get install your locale stuff
[04:02] <jadams> how do I do that?
[04:02] <chuckyp> TheWheat, hrm... wouldn't know where to begin but configuration for nautilus will be in apps > nautilus > preferences
[04:02] <poningru> like if you are en_US then go ahead and search for them
[04:02] <jordan_> sanmarcos, I don't think it contains win32codecs.
[04:02] <poningru> 'apt-cache search en_US
[04:02] <poningru> and install those packages
[04:02] <sanmarcos> jordan_: right, that separate, but things like faad, which are restricitve, does it contain that?
[04:02] <jadams> poningru: came back blank
[04:03] <poningru> jadams: hmm hold on
[04:03] <jordan_> sanmarcos, I don't know, sorry.
[04:03] <chuckyp> jadams, apt-get reinstall locales
[04:03] <Nutubuntu> I have checked alsamixer levels and they look okay. I have checked my speakers, and they're on and volume's up. System volume is up also. But I can barely hear any sound when I play a .flac or .mp3. Honestly this worked fine a couple of days ago. How to troubleshoot?
[04:03] <riddlebox> how come after I installed flash now when I go to a flash site firefox just closes?
[04:03] <chuckyp> jadams, or dpkg-reconfigure locales
[04:03] <JethroDawnfine> hello everybody. how can I share my internet when I have only eth0? I've tried to look for it on google but I can only find how to set it up when you have 2 nics :(
[04:03] <chuckyp> riddlebox, are you using beta flash?
[04:04] <TheWheat> chuckyp: i've looked but i'll try again. thanks for the help. perhaps there isn't a way to disable it :(
[04:04] <riddlebox> chuckyp, nope I am using the one that firefox installed
[04:04] <m0> hi, how do we add gnome splash screns?
[04:04] <Hellclan> can any help me compile madwifi im stuck at kernalpath

[04:04] <Mulder> are the x86 binaries compiled against 586, i386 or 686?
[04:04] <Nutubuntu> To add to the mystery, mplayer video sound and volume controls work just fine
[04:05] <jadams> I can't install anything
[04:05] <jadams> because packages have unmet dependencies
[04:05] <jadams> because locale is broken

[04:07] <clearzen> Hellclan: I'll help you in a second
[04:07] <chuckyp> mcrandello, why not just use the new one?
[04:07] <Hellclan> k
[04:07] <mcrandello> thanks for the tip on packages.ubuntu.com though
[04:07] <mcrandello> chuckyp, I am and the new one blows
[04:07] <Tim90> ok
[04:07] <JethroDawnfine> chuckyp: thanks, I'm going to read those links :)
[04:07] <clearzen> Hellclan: do you have the madwifi packages already?
[04:07] <azureal> woah... gmplayer is so weird if run in the bg... (gmplayer&)
[04:08] <nbound> i cant get fglrx to install on my laptop :S and the edgy binary install howot does not work
[04:08] <chuckyp> mcrandello, what do you want to install?
[04:08] <azureal> but works fine in fg
[04:08] <jadams> rixth, poningru: did you see the pastie btw?  http://pastie.caboo.se/19966  Forgot to mention your nicks the first time
[04:08] <mcrandello> the madwifi kernel modules
[04:08] <LjL> mcrandello: http://packages.ubuntu.com should do nicely for that
[04:08] <Hellclan> i dl the one i could find of synamptic and i dl the tgz of the madwifi website
[04:08] <nbound> the fglrx module wont even load at startup :S
[04:08] <chuckyp> mcrandello, yeah packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/whatever
[04:09] <chuckyp> nbound, did you tell it to?
[04:09] <poningru> jadams: checking
[04:09] <kodat> hmm
[04:09] <mcrandello> chuckyp, dapper is the only distro I've ever used successfully with wifi on my laptop. it's sitting here getting >1024bytes/sec and every 3 minutes I get no route to host errors for about 5 minutes
[04:09] <clearzen> the kernel source is in /usr/src/linux
[04:09] <Hellclan> so how do i set the kernalpath
[04:09] <reid> Would it be better to install VMware from source or from converting the rpm to deb
[04:09] <reid> ?
[04:09] <jadams> poningru: thanks again.  This is my main development laptop, so I'd really rather it didn't bite it
[04:09] <poningru> jadams: did you try installing language-pack-en
[04:09] <Hellclan> ? KERNALPATH=/usr/src/linux
[04:10] <nbound> can someone please help?
[04:10] <LjL> reid: can't you use the vmware-player package for your purposes?
[04:10] <_goofy_> i was wondering what the best video card is for linux
[04:10] <chuckyp> nbound, did you tell it to?
[04:10] <clearzen> Hellclan: actually it will be in /usr/src
[04:10] <reid> LjL I need to make a virtual machine- but vmware player will not let me
[04:10] <poningru> chuckyp: go ahead and tell him how to add it to init
[04:10] <clearzen> Hellclan:if you have it
[04:10] <LjL> reid: http://www.easyvmx.com
[04:10] <nbound> chuckyp, yeah in xorg.conf anyway... modprobing it gave a fatal error though :S
[04:10] <manmadha> MarcN, hi i installed that
[04:11] <chuckyp> nbound, does it work if you modprobe fglrx or whatever the name of it is does it work then?
[04:11] <rcarr> _goofy_: Intel integrated are nice for linux, open source drivers, mostly I would avoid ATI
[04:11] <jordan_> _goofy_, Intel integrated or nvidea definately ( they both have good drivers but intel's are open source )
[04:11] <manmadha> MarcN, but it is giving segmentation error
[04:11] <chuckyp> nbound, what is the error?
[04:11] <nbound> chuckyp, no... fatal error
[04:11] <jadams> poningru: I can't install /anything/ via apt
[04:11] <reid> awesome! thanks LjL- I am not experienced well with VMware- but is it as good as the workstation?
[04:11] <paulinh0> hey! somebody know a command to start the installation of the ubuntu of terminal
[04:11] <Hellclan> clearzen, ~/Desktop/madwifi-0.9.2$ make KERNALPATH=/usr/src
[04:11] <rcarr> _goofy_: But there are good open source drivers for ATI cards with the R300 chipset
[04:11] <Hellclan> right ?
[04:11] <nbound> ummm ill have to reinstall the driver
[04:11] <jadams> poningru: it just keeps complaining about these packages with unmet dependencies
[04:11] <jadams> and if I run with -f, they fail
[04:11] <LjL> reid: i dunno, it does the job for me
[04:11] <jadams> because locales is broken
[04:11] <clearzen> Hellclan:that should work
[04:11] <poningru> jadams: just try that package
[04:11] <reid> just doing windows LjL
[04:11] <paulinh0> hey! somebody know a command to start the installation of the ubuntu of terminal.
[04:11] <poningru> if you have give me the error msg
[04:11] <jadams> poningru: I did, but it keeps trying to install the others first
[04:12] <LjL> reid: and i certainly prefer having a ready-made package rather than instaling by hand
[04:12] <jadams> or says they have unmet dependencies
[04:12] <NineTeen67Comet> grrrr ..  I am making a boot cd with grub via this link http://orgs.man.ac.uk/documentation/grub/grub_3.html#SEC11 .. and I can get winblows to boot but no matter how I write the menu.lst file ubuntu wont do it .. win is hd0,0 and ubuntu is on a seperate hd on the same ide channel (hdb) root on the ununtu is the first partition .. so (hd1,0 or hd0,1)?
[04:12] <jadams> oh
[04:12] <malice> anyone get wmv working in 6.10 yet? I get audio but no video even with codec installed
[04:12] <reid> ya me too LjL
[04:12] <reid> thanks for your help
[04:12] <jadams> nope, can't do it
[04:12] <Flannel> NineTeen67Comet: 1,0
[04:12] <AkumAPRIME> hey, anyone here a nethacker?
[04:12] <megadom> _goofy_ --> it all depends on what you want to do with your video card or linux computer...I have a NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]  and have no problems
[04:12] <jordan_> malice, I have it working no problem with mplayer.
[04:12] <AkumAPRIME> I need some advice on what version to DL
[04:12] <Flannel> NineTeen67Comet: same order as linux, just starts from 0, instead of 1 (or 0 instead of a)

[04:13] <jrattner> ?
[04:13] <malice> jordan, tried that also did not work I dunno
[04:13] <jeeves_Moss> all: can any one help me upgrade to the newest release?
[04:13] <nbound> chuckyp, FATAL: Error running install command for fglrx
[04:13] <allad> hi everyone
[04:13] <AkumAPRIME> no, when I apt-get install nethack, it tells me to specify what version of nethack, x11, gnome, qt, etc... all three have failed for me so far
[04:13] <LjL> reid, the only big real thing i can think of is that you'll see a vmplayer "toolbar" on the top of the screen, even if you maximize the window (i.e. run in full screen mode).  but you can press ctrl+alt+f9 (or f8, or f10, depends) to get a real screen -- although *careful*, because on my system switching back to X (ctrl+alt+f7) freezes sometimes
[04:13] <malice> jordan, since you got it going I will have to look into it more thought it might be  bug
[04:13] <poningru> jadams: /me nods
[04:13] <AkumAPRIME> there are others, but rather than test them all, I was hoping to get an answer
[04:13] <malice> I was wrong :)
[04:13] <megadom> AkumAPRIME, use the 6.06TLS Dapper Drake if you want a stable system, otherwise go with the NEW 6.10 Edgy version for snappy new things
[04:13] <jordan_> malice, I am using win32 codecs.
[04:14] <malice> jordan, ok thanks
[04:14] <jadams> poningru: I'm relatively comfortable in linux, and I've even been using this particular distro since a 5.10's beginnings, so...
[04:14] <nbound> chuckyp, FATAL: Error running install command for fglrx
[04:14] <jeeves_Moss> megadom:  do you know how to upgrade to 6.06?  I've been trying to, but my update manager keep giving me an error
[04:14] <nbound> :S
[04:14] <AkumAPRIME> perhps you don't understand megadom. I am using edgy, I want to know which nethack to install
[04:14] <poningru> jadams: go into synaptic and do the fix packages thing
[04:14] <megadom> btw, my question for someone. I had to delete a user's home directory and would like to know how to recreate the folder and sub-folders without deleting the user account??
[04:14] <jadams> poningru: affirmative, I'll keep you posted  :)
[04:14] <poningru> jadams: its under file or something
[04:14] <allad> I'm trying Edgy right now. And I've got a problem? My processor is constantly used at 50% even when I have not CPU intensive operation running
[04:14] <jadams> wow synaptics looks funny without my fonts
[04:15] <chuckyp> nbound, k hold up let me check something
[04:15] <Flannel> megadom: just make a /home/username directory
[04:15] <apecat> what happened to all of them "traditional debian style" linux-image-cpumodel stock kernels?
[04:15] <chuckyp> nbound, how are you installing the ati driver?
[04:15] <allad> Does anyone has the same problem of resources leaking?
[04:15] <factotum> is there a way to roll back from 6.10 to 6.06? this is just too buggy for me
[04:15] <FunnyLookinHat> AkumAPRIME, Try going to Add/Remove apps under the applications menu....   then search for it and get the GNOME one
[04:15] <jordan_> allad, What are you using to measure cpu usage?
[04:15] <LjL> !downgrade | factotum
[04:15] <ubotu> factotum: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[04:16] <factotum> hmph, bummer
[04:16] <rcarr> apecat: The gains were determined to be minimal and it was sall consolidated
[04:16] <chuckyp> allad, nope system has been up for a long time here.
[04:16] <factotum> ah well, guess I'll have to wait then
[04:16] <nbound> chuckyp, via the version outlined here for edgy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[04:16] <apecat> okays
[04:16] <factotum> lesson learned
[04:16] <rbil> allad:  what does top tell u?
[04:16] <NineTeen67Comet> Flannel: I thought so but I keep getting no partition or can't mount or something .. I'll try it again with different numbers ..
[04:16] <allad> jordan_, the Gnome applet. I've docked it on my top bar
[04:16] <nomasteryoda|w> factotum, just copy your data out of /home then reinstall 6.06.1
[04:16] <emir> any knowledge about the network-manager-gnome error: device not found??
[04:16] <nomasteryoda|w> what i would do if i needed it
[04:17] <megadom> jeeves_Moss, please visit the following link:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseNotes
[04:17] <jordan_> allad, Is it the one with a graph, or the one with a chip icon and a bar?
[04:17] <chuckyp> nbound, and after following those steps what happens?
[04:17] <rick_h> anyone know about an applet for gnome for changing the cpufreq rules? I see edgy defaults on ondemand
[04:17] <rick_h>  I can manually set it to run full bore by cat to scaling_govenor
[04:17] <rick_h>  but I've read about a cpufreq applet I can't find. I can only find a cpu freq "monitor" that lets me see the setting, but not alter it
[04:17] <Flannel> NineTeen67Comet: you shouldn't need to mount anything
[04:17] <Hellclan> clearzen, did you get the error i got
[04:17] <allad> jordan_, the one with the graph
[04:17] <jeeves_Moss> megadom:  I thinkI've tried that allready, and got nowhere with it.
[04:17] <factotum> I considered that, but with all that, i might as well just wait for the few post release fixes that i hope do happen soon
[04:17] <allad> rbil : according to top, firefox is the most CPU demanding application
[04:17] <clearzen> Hellclan: what error did you get?
[04:17] <NineTeen67Comet> Flannel: that's what I thought .. it's just killing me .. I'm not normally this problematic with linux ..
[04:18] <jordan_> allad, Is there one specific process using most of the CPU?
[04:18] <jeeves_Moss> megadom:  yep, now I rember, it gives an error when I use the command line stuff they have listed there.
[04:18] <Flannel> NineTeen67Comet: Well, what error does it give you exactly?
[04:18] <emir> anyone knows how to reconfigure network devices, network-manager to the default setting
[04:18] <factotum> note to self, wait a week or two before upgrading
[04:18] <nomasteryoda|w> beginning the install .... edgy on Dell Latitude 8400 with nvidia card...
[04:18] <rbil> allad:  what % is it using?
[04:18] <nomasteryoda|w> should be interesting
[04:18] <nbound> chuckyp, i reload the gui, glxinfo reports no direct rendering, fglrxinfo reports the old ati drivers (not fglrx) are loaded, and modprobing fglrx goves the error from before
[04:18] <Hellclan> Makefile.inc:89: *** /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-386/build is missing, please set KERNELPATH.  Stop.
[04:18] <FunnyLookinHat> nomasteryoda|w, should go smoothly!
[04:18] <allad> rbil : almost 25%
[04:18] <jadams> poningru: it's not fixed locales yet, but it's at least farther along.  Thanks, it will probably work from here once I dpkg-reconfigure it
[04:18] <megadom> AkumAPRIME, oh...i get it...thanks...just joined the channel...sorry : )
[04:18] <chuckyp> nbound, did you see the part about configureing xorg?
[04:19] <m0> anyone installed ubuntu-system-panel ?
[04:19] <jadams> (looks like it might let me, but I'm not sure until this synaptic op finishes)
[04:19] <nomasteryoda|w> FunnyLookinHat, cool... want beryl to just work out of the box so to speak... lol, er out of the torrent
[04:19] <nomasteryoda|w> =D
[04:19] <nbound> chuckyp, disabling composite extensions? yeah... it doesnt work either way :(
[04:19] <rbil> allad, you got a real active page opened in it, maybe something with flash running? that seems high considering it shouldn't be doing anything once pages are displayed
[04:19] <m0> When a new launcher is added to the preferences or any subpanel, it doesn't show in the ubuntu-system-panel
[04:19] <allad> rbil : I'm donwloading at the moment. I guess it's why. But in general, edgy CPU usage is pretty high. When I run  beryl, CPU runs hot : 100%
[04:19] <chuckyp> nbound, cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[04:19] <megadom> Flannel: will the directories re-create themselves when the user logs in??  it is my wife's account..oopps.
[04:20] <rbil> allad, a download would certainly explainit
[04:20] <NickABusey> I just upgraded from 6.0.6 to 6.1, and now it no longer detects my wireless card. It sees it in Device Manager, but it doesn't appear in Admin->Networking. Any advice?
[04:20] <m0> allad: turn off some features in beryl
[04:20] <nbound> chuckyp, comes up with nothing :S
[04:20] <Flannel> megadom: I'm not sure.
[04:20] <m0> When a new launcher is added to the preferences or any subpanel, it doesn't show in the ubuntu-system-panel
[04:20] <m0> anyone knoww why
[04:20] <clearzen> Hellclan: I can't remeber how to produce the build directory right now....sorry long day
[04:20] <chuckyp> nbound, well in your xorg.conf make sure under the device section for your video card you have a line like Driver "fglrx"
[04:21] <Hellclan> lol np clearzen
[04:21] <allad> m0 : I've switched back to metacity. Beryl is cool but not compulsory.
[04:21] <megadom> factotum: i agree about downgrading...you would be better making a user profile backup and reinstalling...much cleaner and faster, otherwise you will be among those that call linux buggy and slow
[04:21] <clearzen> Hellclan: I think you have to run a make command at the top of the directory with the kernel source
[04:21] <clearzen> Hellclan: but I'm not sure
[04:21] <Hellclan> lol you lost me there
[04:21] <Hellclan> k thx for trying
[04:21] <nbound> chuckyp, yep its there... though there is also another with the other ati drivers in it too
[04:22] <Rav|strangler> what do I do with a .run file?
[04:22] <FunnyLookinHat> Rav|strangler, you probably need to do the following in a terminal...
[04:22] <ubuntuSucks> can someone tell me why ubuntu sucks?
[04:22] <emir> i need help with network-manager-gnome anyone?
[04:22] <FunnyLookinHat> Rav|strangler, chmod +x file.run
[04:22] <FunnyLookinHat> Rav|strangler, ./file.run
[04:22] <chuckyp> nbound, alright sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak  then sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf remove the reference to the old one and try to restart X
[04:22] <ubuntuSucks> please? because i'd like to blame someone for it sucking
[04:22] <megadom> factotum: from now on...try the new versions of Ubuntu or *nix version in VMWare prior to updating your computer...it has saved me many of Tylenol(R)
[04:22] <jrsims> ok, I upgraded to edgy and firefox 2. But it seems to take forever for pages to load. Why is this, and what can I do to fix it? It's faster to run IE6 in Windows.
[04:22] <jordan_> !ops | ubuntuSucks
[04:22] <ubotu> ubuntuSucks: Help! Keybuk, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee, imbrandon, DBO or gnomefreak!
[04:22] <nbound> chuckyp, ok :)
[04:22] <FunnyLookinHat> ubuntuSucks, ...  I don't think you're in the right place.  And we'd rather not hav eosmone ban you.
[04:23] <ubuntuSucks> sweet
[04:23] <rbil> ubuntuSucks: it's usually due to the person on the keyboard
[04:23] <factotum> megadom: haha, thanks im already at the buggy opinion right now
[04:23] <FunnyLookinHat> ty Amallya
[04:23] <FunnyLookinHat> oops
[04:23] <dsewnr_>  scrollback_save_formats = OFF
[04:23] <FunnyLookinHat> ty Amaranth
[04:23] <dsewnr_>  scrollback_save_formats = ON
[04:23] <factotum> thankfully i have my slackware system if anything goes seriously wrong
[04:23] <NickABusey> I just upgraded from 6.0.6 to 6.1, and now it no longer detects my wireless card. It sees it in Device Manager, but it doesn't appear in Admin->Networking. Any advice?
[04:23] <Hellclan> can some one else help me compile madawifi
[04:23] <Lathiat> NickABusey: what kind of card?
[04:24] <Lathiat> Hellclan: does the builtin madwifi not worK?
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> formatting 60gb into 5 paritions...
[04:24] <megadom> jeeves_Moss: bummer...if that command will not work then you may have a deeper problem or may have not used the command using "sudo" without quotes
[04:24] <Hellclan> bulltin ?
[04:24] <mcrandello> Lathiat, I can answer that one, NO it does not
[04:24] <poningru> nomasteryoda|w: yo
[04:24] <riddlebox> man I even installed the beta version of flash and it still happens
[04:24] <poningru> nomasteryoda|w: what tools are you using?
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> poningru, howdy
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> gparted
[04:24] <poningru> nomasteryoda|w: gparted?
[04:24] <poningru> cool
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> in the ubuntu
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> yea
[04:24] <mcrandello> Hellclan, once you "sudo apt-get install build-essential" it should compile right out of the box
[04:24] <jeeves_Moss> megadom:  I was running it as root.
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> i have the live bootable gparted cd too
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> very nice
[04:24] <poningru> nomasteryoda|w: first you gotta umount them all
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> ya
[04:24] <nomasteryoda|w> they are
[04:25] <mcrandello> I don't think it will do any good however
[04:25] <megadom> jeeves_Moss: please copy and paste the error for the channel...thanks.
[04:25] <NickABusey> Lathiat: WMP11v4 802.11
[04:25] <ubuntuSucks> hello
[04:25] <ubuntuSucks> let me be more civil
[04:25] <chuckyp> !enter | nomasteryoda|w
[04:25] <ubotu> nomasteryoda|w: Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[04:25] <poningru> nomasteryoda|w: ok now create first three as primary partitions however big you want
[04:25] <nomasteryoda|w> this laptop has 1600x1280 resolution...
[04:25] <slackerindenial> what can i say, i went to u of moorhead, im biased
[04:25] <jeeves_Moss> megadom: update-manager: error: no such option: -c
[04:25] <CorpseFeeder> i am getting some error about "no symbolic links" or something for Nvidia driver installer. I have installed make, gcc, pkg-config, xserver-xorg-dev, linux-headers for my kernel and nvidia-glx is uninstalled. What am I missing?
[04:25] <nbound> chuckyp, xserver blue screens with no screens found :(
[04:25] <poningru> nomasteryoda|w: nice
[04:25] <rowanjl> Hey, I'm trying to start epiphany, but whenever I do I get this error: "error while loading shared libraries: libgtkembedmoz.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:25] <rowanjl> "
[04:25] <chuckyp> nbound, does it show an error?
[04:25] <nomasteryoda|w> sorry about that i'll just keep typing and not stop. thanks poningru
[04:25] <leftjustified> how can I mount my ipod as a HDD if it doesn't auto-mount to /media/ipod/ ? I'm trying to resuce my ~/ directory after upgrade tp edgy has left my machine unable to boot iinto X. (not even vesa driver works!)
[04:25] <poningru> !upgrade | jeeves_Moss
[04:25] <chuckyp> nbound, or you could cat /var/log/X.0.log | grep EE
[04:25] <ubotu> jeeves_Moss: For upgrading, see instructions at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes (you can also find this in the channel topic: type "/topic")  -  See also !downgrade
[04:25] <slackerindenial> its mostly just gnome being buggy, not the system itself
[04:26] <nbound> yeah... no screens found
[04:26] <Rav|strangler> FunnyLookinHat, It opened in gedit and then gedit couldnt open the file
[04:26] <slackerindenial> this new init though...wierd
[04:26] <rowanjl> however, slocate finds two instances of libgtkembedmoz.so
[04:26] <ubuntuSucks> my sound card doesn't work, and i'm getting a low frequency noise through my speakers... i have a via sound card which should be supported... so wtf is up with ubuntu...
[04:26] <agent> anyone know of a good tutorial about making a deb that does NOT compile (use make)? i cant figure out how to configure a  5 file package to become a deb
[04:26] <megadom> factotum: nice...I said that when I just installed Microsoft Vista Ultimate RC1 over my XP Pro and wiped out all my life's bookmarks in IE and Firefox....I know the feeling
[04:26] <Lathiat> leftjustified: well
[04:26] <chuckyp> agent, checkinstall
[04:26] <chuckyp> !checkinstall > agent
[04:26] <rowanjl> how can I put the file somewhere that epiphany will find it?
[04:26] <Lathiat> leftjustified: if you run 'dmesg' you should see somethign liek
[04:26] <jeeves_Moss> poningru:  thanks?
[04:26] <Lathiat> leftjustified: sda, sdb, sdc, sdd, sde, etc
[04:26] <Lathiat> leftjustified: as the last drive plugged in
[04:26] <chuckyp> ubuntuSucks, did you try the forums?
[04:26] <Lathiat> leftjustified: should be abel to run "mkdir /media/ipod" followed by "mount /dev/sd?1 /media/ipod"
[04:26] <leftjustified> Lathiat: cool, thanks. will try now -- then just pmount it?
[04:26] <Lathiat> leftjustified: where ? is the a b c d e
[04:27] <Lathiat> leftjustified: or pmount, yeh
[04:27] <leftjustified> sweet
[04:27] <ubuntuSucks> i did, and it doesn't seem that anyone else is having my specific problem...
[04:27] <factotum> yep
[04:27] <Lathiat> leftjustified: need the 1 after it proabbly tho
[04:27] <rbil> ubuntuSucks: if you put your ear really close to a speaker you'll hear it talking to you, saying "Go Back To Windoze"
[04:27] <agent> chuckyp: i know about checkinstall... as i said, a way to make a deb that does NOT compile (use make)..
[04:27] <jrsims> anyone know how to fix a slow browsing experience??
[04:27] <Hellclan> mcrandello, seem i did not have that package installed :(
[04:27] <jrsims> pages take forever to load, but rendering is quick
[04:27] <ubuntuSucks> rbil, you're right... i should just live in ignorance... never mind that linux doesn't work
[04:27] <chuckyp> agent, well you ahve to compile to make a deb.  Do you mean not install it after it compiles?
[04:28] <nbound> chuckyp, no such file... (i did have to restart though)
[04:28] <chuckyp> jrsims, get a better internet conection
[04:28] <factotum> ubuntuSucks: did you try running alsaconf?
[04:28] <agent> chuckyp: no, i mean not compile period :)
[04:28] <ubuntuSucks> are you guys gurus or just newbs with nothing to do on a friday night
[04:28] <ubuntuRocks> ubuntuSucks: Sup
[04:28] <jrsims> my connection is fine
[04:28] <Lathiat> jrsims: hrm, if on a console/terminal you go, say, "telnet www.google.com 80" what happens
[04:28] <chuckyp> agent, Xorg.0.log
[04:28] <NickABusey> I just upgraded from 6.0.6 to 6.1, and now it no longer detects my wireless card. The card is a WMP11v4 802.11. It sees it in Device Manager, but it doesn't appear in Admin->Networking. Any advice?
[04:28] <ubuntuSucks> i did run alsaconf, the sound card isn't muted, i don't know what's up
[04:28] <Lathiat> jrsims: how long between when it opens (when ti says 'Escape char....'
[04:28] <ubuntuSucks> rocks.... sup chu
[04:28] <agent> chuckyp: i think you wrote that to the wrong person :D
[04:28] <factotum> ubuntuSucks: i have 2 kids that keep me home on friday nights, whats your excuse?
[04:28] <ubuntuRocks> not much brotha//
[04:29] <jrsims> Lathiat: there's a delay - about the same as when connecting to a site to request a page. I'd say about 8 to 10 secs.
[04:29] <ubuntuRocks> sucks.. hows it hangin in yo crig?
[04:29] <chuckyp> nbound, cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
[04:29] <poningru> factotum: linux
[04:29] <megadom> ubuntuSucks: because you may not know how to use *nix systems?? or maybe you are used to MS Windows....it was a trying time for me the first couple of months, but now my family uses Ubuntu as their sole OS and I have not had to rebuild or reboot the machine unless an update requires it...the Ubuntu box runs 24/7 without issue! I can not say that about MS Windows of which I have been using since Windows 3.1
[04:29] <ubuntuRocks> crib*
[04:29] <nbound> chuckyp, ahhh now it says problem parsing the config file
[04:29] <kodat> how do i give myself access to move files >.<
[04:29] <agent> ubuntuSucks: how about changing your nick first before asking for help? maybe that will help you out? just a suggestion
[04:29] <mcrandello> Hellclan, once you get that one on it should be smooth sailing for the compile. after running make, do a "sudo make install" and then type "r" when it asks if you want to remove the original drivers
[04:29] <Flannel> kodat: depending on what you want to do, you probably won't.  You'll use sudo to move the files, and keep the folders the same
[04:29] <chuckyp> kodat, sudo
[04:29] <Lathiat> jrsims: hrm ok, what happens if you type "host -t any www.google.com" and then {"host -t a www.google.com")
[04:29] <kodat> yeah out of terminal i mean
[04:29] <ubuntuSucks> slax goddamn works as a live cd, but ubuntu doesn't... so ubuntu... sucks
[04:29] <Lathiat> jrsims: whats the respective delay
[04:30] <mcrandello> if you're having general performace issues though I just did this and it didn't do a thing for me
[04:30] <kodat> if i wanna manually do it
[04:30] <khaije1> anyone on dapper having problems with the new firefox? it crashed every time i go to www.emusic.com ... :-(
[04:30] <nbound> ubuntuSucks, yes it does, run the install disc
[04:30] <chuckyp> ubuntuSucks, /j #linux-help
[04:30] <Lathiat> khaije1: do you have the flash plugin installed?
[04:30] <riddlebox> khaije1, lots of sites do
[04:30] <Flannel> kodat: 'gksudo nautilus', just be VERY careful, since if you accidentally delete something, it's gone.
[04:30] <jrsims> Lathiat: no delay at all for the second command
[04:30] <Lathiat> khaije1: im told the flash plugin doesnt play so well with FF2 (but i have no idea how true that is)
[04:30] <juliano> can someone send me the edgy original wallpaper?
[04:30] <ubuntuSucks> cribs kind of crap... you know anything aboout sound? i think it might have to do with having an onboard sound chip on my motherboard, but i have no idea
[04:30] <chuckyp> nbound, perhaps someone with an ati card can help you more.
[04:30] <kodat> hmm well id do it through terminal but it says i cant move a subdirectory of itself
[04:30] <riddlebox> Lathiat, how do I uninstall the plugin that firefox installs on its own?
[04:30] <Lathiat> jrsims: ok, seems yoru router/dns server has some incompatability whern lookign up ipv6 addresses which is a bit of a shame
[04:30] <nbound> chuckyp, :( thanks anyway :)
[04:31] <ubuntuSucks> so when i installed kubuntu and the sound didn't work, that didn't happen? come on, i did this already...
[04:31] <Lathiat> jrsims: whats in /etc/resolv.conf (if more than 1 line please send in private message)
[04:31] <st3v3dnd> anyone here get beryl running with ati?
[04:31] <factotum> ubuntuSucks: did you try alsaconf?
[04:31] <factotum> for the second time now
[04:31] <khaije1> Lathiat: ?!?! wtf
[04:31] <chuckyp> nbound, np nvidia here so I don't have much experience with fglrx but I would just make sure you followed every step on the binarydriver page.
[04:31] <ubuntuSucks> yes, i've tried alsaconf, and everything looks fine... check the log i said i did already.
[04:31] <ubuntuSucks> brb
[04:31] <der0b> don't hurry
[04:31] <nomasteryoda|w> so, typing without spamming is hard in here. It makes my irc skills tougher because we are used to thinking in bursts of short thoughts... like brb, or wtf!...
[04:31] <khaije1> Lathiat: is there a workaround or anything like that?
[04:31] <nomasteryoda|w> =D
[04:31] <factotum> and you did a alsactl store just to make sure?
[04:31] <Lathiat> khaije1: not that i know of, perhaps try the flash player 9 beta ?
[04:32] <jrsims> Lathiat: line 1: search hsd1.ca.comcast.net, line 2: nameserver [ip of my router] .
[04:32] <khaije1> Lathiat: thats released for linux?
[04:32] <jordan_> !flash9
[04:32] <nbound> chuckyp, yeah my main pc is nvidia too - nice and easy :P, this is for my laptop... its strange but, its ran fglrx fine under breezy and dapper :S
[04:32] <ubotu> Flash player 9 beta has been released. You can download it here: http://seveas.imbrandon.com/dists/dapper-seveas/custom/ (replace dapper-seveas with edgy-seveas for edgy)  -  Official Adobe page at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer9.html
[04:32] <Lathiat> khaije1: *beta* yes, see http://labs.adobe.com
[04:32] <ubuntuSucks> i can't alsaconf, i'm on the livecd and it won't let me
[04:32] <ubuntuSucks> i did when i had kubuntu installed on my hd
