[08:59] <mooey> DigitalNinja, it does yea but you can tell it to fsck on the next boot
[08:59] <hrishi> hi, when i use to change the wireless nic mode to master using iwconfig it shows me "Set failed: Invalid Arguement Error", why this is so ?
[08:59] <xmOD> Wahro: u dont have a windows listing there
[08:59] <adub> does anyone know what is up with the madwifi driver in the new 6.10 ubuntu
[08:59] <sara> under windows the fans seem to come on as it throttles but in Kubuntu edgy it seems that the throttling is all screwed up
[08:59] <Boob> adub:
[08:59] <adub> i cant get monitor mode with some applications??
[08:59] <Boob> no
[08:59] <quasicolon> aSDA
[08:59] <Boob> no
[08:59] <Wahro> it's partition c:/ .. the first partition.. sda1
[08:59] <BackPacker> mooey: I think the ports were open when I first installed Ubuntu (i.e. no iptables rules) but nothing was running on any port anyway
[08:59] <mnk0> line 32 - 41 in your config looks right
[08:59] <adub> boob please help me i have been working on this for a while
[08:59] <DigitalNinja> mooey: I should look into this. some of the stuff I'm finding on google are saying "days". This is starting to look bad.
[08:59] <cyber_brain_mfkg> scifi, u said u was doing update of your programs after u finished update 2 6.10?
[09:00] <Boob> if don't help, it will be more work for you
[09:00] <Boob> if i do help, it will be less work for me
[09:00] <Boob> hm
[09:00] <Boob> think, think
[09:00] <Boob> lol srry
[09:00] <adub> boob cmon man plllllllllease
[09:00] <Boob> can't help
[09:00] <Jowi> mikeconcepts, not if you didn't block it yourself. are you behind a firewall or router now?
[09:00] <Boob> i don't know too much
[09:00] <Boob> about ubuntu
[09:00] <mooey> BackPacker, yes, 'no listening ports' should be the correct terminology since things like dns open ports while they do resolution
[09:00] <Boob> srry
[09:00] <TheGateKeeper> mooey, hmmm like I said, seeing the default setup I was less than convinced about that
[09:01] <adub> boob kismet works flawlessly but the aircrack suite i cant get anything working
[09:01] <BackPacker> mooey: Agreed.
[09:01] <lnm> I'm probably being pretty stupid, but after untarring a file I try to do make but I get the error "bash: make: command not found" anyone got a pointer for me?
[09:01] <cyber_brain_mfkg> scifi, then u enter maintenance mod and type sudo apt-get update
[09:01] <adub> can anyone help with the new madwifi-ng please
[09:01] <BackPacker> lnm: install make
[09:01] <mooey> TheGateKeeper, if you see open listening ports please file a bug :~) but its not an alternative to having a firewall
[09:01] <n2diy> You can test your ports using Shields Up, at grc.com
[09:01] <riotkittie> lnm >> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:01] <Jowi> lnm, install build-essential
[09:01] <lnm> cheers guys
[09:02] <scifi> cyber_brain_mfkg: yes. the main 718mb update downloaded. i also had updates available from the update alert synaptic pop-up, but there was a list of updates that were skipped, it then suggested i do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade again, which i did, and thats when the problem occured
[09:02] <mnk0> Wahro: i would copy lines 39-41 to the bottom where your shit for ubuntu is
[09:02] <mikeconcepts> jowi, no firewall, but a router is in use, funny thing is, I have 4 other hard drives with a mix of edgy and dapper on them, but don't have this problem on any of them, the only thing unique about this edgy install is beryl 1.4 is running
[09:02] <mnk0> it looks good
[09:02] <TheGateKeeper> mooey, well I have a firewall on my router, I just use iptables as a second line of defence
[09:02] <Wahro> will do
[09:02] <Jowi> mikeconcepts, beryl will not work with x11vnc
[09:02] <Jowi> mikeconcepts, tried that myself last week. all other WM's work
[09:02] <mooey> DigitalNinja, for something that big i wouldn't be surprised, but it really depends on too many factors to predict like the speed of the discs, data on them, number of errors and such forth
[09:03] <Fubarovic> does anyone use teh skynet.be mirrors as apt-sources in his sources.list?
[09:03] <TheGateKeeper> mooey, it that something you have tested for yourself?
[09:03] <Boob> I don't know that much about Ubuntu.
[09:03] <Boob> I can't help.
[09:03] <Boob> srry
[09:03] <Fubarovic> i don't know the correct sy;ntax for the sources to work
[09:03] <scifi> cyber_brain_mfkg: but wont it ask for my password again when i do sudo apt-get update ?
[09:03] <mooey> TheGateKeeper, its not, no
[09:03] <BackPacker> TheGateKeeper: Not always a good idea to have two firewalls. If they're not configured exactly the same you could find yourself spending hours trying to find out why something can't get out/in...
[09:03] <riotkittie> scifi, you can enter console mode on that box tho, right?
[09:04] <cyber_brain_mfkg> scifi, just enter terminal mode and type sudo apt-get update or if that doesn't work type sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:04] <mooey> nat provides enough safety to keep me comfortable
[09:04] <riotkittie> wait. when you boot into recov mode, you can reset your password with the passwd command
[09:04] <cyber_brain_mfkg> scifi, that should fix your problem!
[09:04] <mikeconcepts> Jowi, I will go turn off beryl and see if that fixes it, thanks, I'll let you know how it turns out
[09:04] <DigitalNinja> mooey: It's a 3ware SATA RAID setup. The os is about 600gig RAID 5. The data RAID is 1.4T's on RAID 10
[09:04] <scifi> riotkittie: no i just get a blank screen with cursor at the top
[09:04] <Jowi> no probs mikeconcepts if you need any more pointers just ask
[09:04] <TheGateKeeper> BackPacker, not a problem, disable iptables then find the problem, then re-enable iptables & sort it out from there, NOT rocket science
[09:04] <scifi> riotkittie: it doesnt ask me for user/pwd or anything
[09:05] <riotkittie> try recovery mode and see if it's different there.
[09:05] <mooey> DigitalNinja, at least they are fast disks so it shouldn't take a day heh :)
[09:05] <scifi> riotkittie: ok, brb
[09:05] <BackPacker> TheGateKeeper: no, but you're possibly doubling up on the amount of work needed
[09:05] <cyber_brain_mfkg> scifi, yes but u know your password right?
[09:05] <|Sora|> when i auto hide both the bottom and top bars, how come its not ocompletely hidden? i can see like 5% of the bar bulging out
[09:05] <DigitalNinja> mooey: We are hoping.
[09:05] <TheGateKeeper> mooey, you are saying what others have said in here, however I'm not entirely conviced it's a myth
[09:06] <Wahro> mnk0 - when I click windows.. nothing happens. not even a message
[09:06] <mooey> TheGateKeeper, the 'no open ports' isn't myth, its ubuntu policy
[09:06] <TheGateKeeper> BackPacker, well it's never been a problem so far
[09:06] <xmOD> Wahro: i tried wat i told you?
[09:06] <Wahro> yes
[09:06] <Wahro> I moved it all the way down
[09:06] <mnk0> hmm, then maybe pointing to wrong partition
[09:06] <xmOD> worked?
[09:06] <sara> Is there a module for monitering cpu temp and fans?
[09:07] <mooey> sara, lmsensors
[09:07] <riotkittie> |Sora|, if you go into gnome's config editor (apps -> system) you should be able to change that, i believe
[09:07] <xmOD> wahro: i gave u a pastebin of wat it should look like.. u copied that one?
[09:07] <mnk0> hmm try (hd0,1)
[09:07] <BackPacker> TheGateKeeper: Good to hear it. In fact, the laptop I'm on is running an iptables ruleset, and so is the PC that the laptop is NATted through. But they're both the same ruleset.
[09:07] <sara> mooey  thanks
[09:07] <mooey> np
[09:07] <TheGateKeeper> mooey, well I can only go on what I found the default setup to be, I am not an iptables expert, but it didn't look to be doing too much untill I sorted it
[09:07] <Wahro> xmOD no.. but mine is the same. Except.. you still had the text from the example uncommented (which I used first)
[09:07] <sara> I need to modify lmsensors so it throttles at say 80 instead of 65
[09:07] <joe__> hi there
[09:08] <|Sora|> ok riotkittie, will check it out, hold on
[09:08] <arrenlex> !hi | joe__
[09:08] <ubotu> joe__: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:08] <joe__> thank you
[09:08] <joe__> brb
[09:08] <arrenlex> XD!
[09:08] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ok!is there modprobe.conf in ubuntu or not? i want to setup my kworld bttv TV Card modules!
[09:08] <adub> what is the printer setup program for ubuntu
[09:08] <mooey> TheGateKeeper, i think we have crossed wires here. iptables is idle by default, there is no ingress or egress filtering by default. however, ubuntu default doesn't ship any packages that listen on any external ports, hence the 'no open ports' policy
[09:08] <xmOD> Wahro: so i hope you commented that text again and introduced the new one at the bottom?
[09:09] <Wahro> yes I did
[09:09] <|Sora|> riotkittie, where is that exactly?
[09:09] <mooey> cyber_brain_mfkg, you can put modules you want loaded at boot in /etc/modules
[09:09] <TheGateKeeper> mooey, ok :-)
[09:09] <mooey> :-)
[09:09] <Wahro> I use (hdd0,1) now.. and I get Error 12: Invalid device requested.
[09:09] <Wahro> I didn't get ANY message when using (hdd0,0)
[09:09] <genius314> Ok, does anyone know where the DOSbox folder is in Ubuntu?
[09:09] <xmOD> yeah thought so
[09:10] <xmOD> hdd is not the right command
[09:10] <sara> lm-sensors wasnt installed
[09:10] <Wahro> is there another?
[09:10] <eitan> hey guys...I wish to install xfree86 over xorg on my 6.10 laptop.  When I try to install xfree86-driver-synaptics for my touchpad, it results in a message about dependencies.  I am doing this to solve a problem I've been having (along with many other people) with their laptop ALPS touchpad devices being buggy in Xorg.  Thanks!
[09:10] <mooey> genius314, perhaps ~/.dosbox?
[09:10] <xmOD> Wahro: its (hd0.0)
[09:10] <arrenlex> eitan: Why would you want to do this?
[09:10] <sara> mooey could having lm-sensors installed improve my situation?
[09:10] <genius314> mooey: Nope. I already checked there.
[09:10] <arrenlex> eitan: Nevermind, I need to read more. :)
[09:10] <mooey> sara, sorry what is the situation?
[09:10] <n2diy> cyber_brain_mfkg: there is no modprope.conf in Ubuntu, google for a work around.
[09:10] <riotkittie> |Sora|, try /apps/panel/general
[09:10] <tahorg> eitan: why would you want to install xfree86 ?
[09:10] <eitan> arrenlex: xorg is very buggy for my particular touchpad
[09:11] <cyber_brain_mfkg> mooey, i know but i want 2 setup those modules i loaded! i want to add "alias char-major-81     videodev" and sililar lines!
[09:11] <tahorg> eitan: xfree won't be better
[09:11] <xmOD> Wahro: before you try it.. gimme a pastebin of your menu.lst
[09:11] <speyer> where is grub.conf located ?
[09:11] <eitan> tahorg: it was posted as a fix to the bug...hold on I'll link to you
[09:11] <sara> asus laptop overheating under edgy,  throttling down at 65 to 70 degrees which it gets to in about 10 moutes from cold
[09:11] <Jowi> cyber_brain_mfkg, it's in /etc/modprobe.d/aliases
[09:11] <riotkittie> speyer > try /boot/grub
[09:11] <mooey> cyber_brain_mfkg, perhaps you want the files in /etc/modules
[09:11] <Wahro> it was already hd0.. hehe
[09:11] <arrenlex> Wahro: Just curious: what problem are you having?
[09:12] <xmOD> gimme a pastebin
[09:12] <speyer> riotkittie not there
[09:12] <Wahro> arrenlex - my dual boot won't boot windows
[09:12] <eitan> tahorg: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/47971
[09:12] <arrenlex> Wahro: What drive is Windows on?
[09:12] <riotkittie> |Sora|, i *think* it is the panel_minimized_size setting
[09:12] <eitan> I haven't been able to find a solid fix for this bug yet.
[09:12] <scifi> cyber_brain_mfkg: i tried recovery mode, after it scrolls thru line sof code, it eventually says Begin: waiting for root file system ... then nothing happens :P i may as well just download the 6.10 cd and do a fresh install :P
[09:12] <riotkittie> speyer > locate grub.conf

[09:13] <Wahro> http://www.pastebin.ca/308239
[09:13] <scifi> i take it a fresh 6.10 install will just replace the current GRUB successfully ?
[09:13] <Rookie-1> sara , what you looking for is desklets
[09:14] <mooey> is gdesklets as unreliable as it was ~a year ago?
[09:14] <cyber_brain_mfkg> scifi, that would be best! sorry but i don't know other solutions for your problem!
[09:14] <lnm> when I ./configure BitchX I'm getting the following error: configure: error: cannot find setupterm or tgetent. This usually means I'm missing ncurses libraries if I'm not mistaking. But when I try to apt-get them it says they are a missing dependency but can't find 'm on the apt-get server

[09:14] <Sub7> Anyone got a working genesis emulator for ubuntu edgy?
[09:15] <cyber_brain_mfkg> Jowi, should i all commands with prefix options add in /etc/modprobe.d/options (with that prefix or no)?
[09:15] <scifi> cyber_brain_mfkg: luckily i wont lose any important data. im just using ubuntu experiment/experience linux as an alternative to windows :)
[09:15] <mooey> lnm, it might help if you can pastebin the full apt-get output
[09:15] <nikasi> hmm.. my vnc just stopped after today's vnc update, anyone know how to fix it?
[09:15] <speyer> riotkittie all i want is to save my grub.conf somewhere so after i fresh install ubuntu i can use the same grub.conf ... because i edited so that i can boot into my windows system from the same menu ...
[09:15] <nikasi> using vnc4server
[09:15] <cyber_brain_mfkg> scifi, ok!;)
[09:16] <arrenlex> Wahro: Looks fine... mine is set up like that; the only difference is that there's a space between chainloader and +1, but I don't know if that'll do anything...

[09:16] <jrib> |Sora|: that's a gconf key, you would look for it in gconf-editor
[09:17] <xmOD> Wahro: U ARE STILL USING (hd0,1) .. change it to (hd0,0)
[09:17] <Wahro> already using 0,0
[09:17] <|Sora|> where would gconf-editor be located at?
[09:17] <xmOD> wahro: and give that space between chainloader also

[09:18] <jrib> riotkittie: that's not in the menus since at least dapper I believe
[09:18] <arrenlex> lnm: I think you need the libncurses5-dev package.
[09:18] <cyber_brain_mfkg> Jowi, thanx a lot!i know what to do now!:D
[09:18] <Jowi> np cyber_brain_mfkg
[09:18] <riotkittie> ah. i havent gone beyond dapper
[09:18] <|Sora|> ok thanks riotkittie, i didn;t ahev it listed before, but now added back in
[09:18] <araizen> hi everyone, i'm not using ubuntu, but trying to help someone out who is switching to linux
[09:19] <riotkittie> try gconftool in a term?
[09:19] <Sub7> Anyone got a working genesis emulator for ubuntu edgy?
[09:19] <mooey> lnm, do you perhaps want libncurses or ncurses-bin?
[09:19] <araizen> what's the normal way to install a new package in ubuntu?
[09:19] <riotkittie> oh nm

[09:21] <araizen> great, thanks all
[09:22] <jrib> araizen: you'd need to enable universe which is commented by default
[09:22] <araizen> i hope to try ubuntu some day, it sounds really nice
[09:22] <rambo3> araizen, you need universal enabled in synaptic
[09:22] <raul> any idea about the black screen of death of ATI "radeon" module (working till yesterday-dist-upgrade)
[09:22] <ubuntux> mooey, thx!
[09:22] <riotkittie> heh. i think ubotu may very well be the first useful bot i've seen on irc in the last ten years
[09:22] <araizen> oh, what is the configuration file?

[09:24] <xmOD> copy

[09:24] <Wahro> hm k
[09:24] <xmOD> everything after the title
[09:24] <Jowi> mikeconcepts, that's what I thought. somehow beryl does not use convential ways to build the windows and detect mouseclicks. Only had this prob with Beryl so it took me awhile to figure out as well :)
[09:25] <xmOD> Wahro: http://pastebin.ca/308258

[09:27] <lnm> anyone know what this could mean http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/680/ (this is the error I get from apt-get ncurses)
[09:27] <christopher_l> remove help text in menu?anyone
[09:28] <arrenlex> Wahro: FYI you can just press "e" at the grub prompt to edit the commands right there, without having to edit menu.lst and restart every time...
[09:28] <nikasi> does anyone know why when i try to login to vnc, i just get to see the screen for like 1sec then i get disconnected.. started happening after todays vnc4server update :(
[09:28] <arrenlex> lnm: I think you want the libncurses5-dev package
[09:28] <Wahro> still getting Loading Stage 2...
[09:28] <h3xis> lnm, sudo apt-get install libncruses5
[09:28] <mikeconcepts> I have  one problem left to solve, and that's my cs330 Intel webcam, doesn't seem to be detected
[09:28] <xmOD> lnm: install from synaptic
[09:28] <lnm> I'll have a look, thanks again :)
[09:28] <xmOD> Wahro: well it does'nt load?
[09:28] <Wahro> no
[09:28] <nikasi> used this guide to configure vnc : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402&highlight=vnc4server
[09:28] <Wahro> it goes back to the menu
[09:29] <xmOD> ok... u got 2 HDD's right?
[09:29] <Jowi> !pastebin > Quinn
[09:29] <Wahro> yes I do
[09:29] <mooey> !gdesklets > mooey
[09:30] <xmOD> wahro: disconnect linux one and see if u can boot into windows normally
[09:30] <lnm> apt-get said it already has libncurses5, so I'm trying the *-dev package now :)
[09:30] <Wahro> oki
[09:31] <arrenlex> lnm: You need -dev packages to compile things that need these libraries. They're headers. If ./configure ever tells you it can't find libfoobar, you need to install libfoobar-dev, see? :)
[09:31] <puggan> problems whit courier-pop/imap whit mysql: http://home.puggan.com/error/
[09:31] <Wahro> xmOD
[09:31] <Wahro> GRUB loading, please wait...
[09:31] <Wahro> Error 21
[09:31] <Wahro> then it freezes
[09:32] <xmOD> cause i guess grub is first on MBR
[09:32] <lnm> arrenlex: makes sense yeah. As you probably notice I'm rather new to ubuntu and linux in general
[09:32] <Wahro> yeh
[09:32] <xmOD> hmm...
[09:32] <xmOD> try to check your windows installation somehow
[09:32] <arrenlex> lnm: No problems. Even Torvalds was a Linux newbie at one point :)
[09:32] <lnm> I must say the wiki and the irc channel are an awesome help though :)
[09:32] <xmOD> maybe run off the live cd and mount the windows drive to see
[09:32] <lnm> haha, true :o)
[09:33] <arrenlex> Wahro: Again, just curious: what's the output of "sudo fdisk -l"?
[09:33] <n2diy> xmOD: grub error 21, "disk does not exsist"
[09:33] <n2diy> xmOD: could this be a master/slave issue?
[09:34] <xmOD> n2diy: yea i know.. thats because GRUB is first on MBR and he disconnected the linux drive
[09:34] <rambo3> n2diy, is groot configured in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:34] <xmOD> n2diy: no its different .. :-) ..
[09:34] <n2diy> xmOD: he didn't need to set the single drive to master?
[09:35] <harushimo> hey everyone does anyone know the commands to image a hard drive using ubuntu

[09:38] <riotkittie> B_166-ER-X, add it to fstab?   why cant you mount it manually?    mount -t ext3 /dev/???  /your/mountpointhere
[09:38] <BackPacker> B_166-ER-X: What does 'fdisk -l' show? Which partition is it?
[09:38] <shawoho> My ISP is charging $1500 on the bill, so I need the log urgently ;)

[09:40] <Wahro> xmOD - is there any way I can backup the data from my other disk?
[09:40] <B_166-ER-X> BackPacker yeap, the whole disk
[09:41] <n2diy> shawoho: is kppp your dialer, that can be setup to monitor DLs?
[09:41] <xmOD> it is NTFS .. so it is only readable
[09:41] <Wahro> readable is good enough..
[09:41] <BackPacker> First you need to create some mount points, and you do this as root. You create directories into whic
[09:41] <Wahro> I could send it to my other linux box then
[09:42] <B_166-ER-X> BackPacker thats done now
[09:42] <xmOD> wahro: remove your win drive and insert into another winbox and copy data :-)
[09:42] <uniqueLikeYou>  cyber_brain_mfkg : lspci might help
[09:42] <shawoho> n2diy: nop... it is celular modem..
[09:42] <B_166-ER-X> it gives me an error when trying to mount it, saying its a bad filesystem or something
[09:42] <Wahro> I don't have another winbox :P
[09:42] <Wahro> except this laptop..
[09:42] <shawoho> it calls by it self
[09:42] <BackPacker> B_166-ER-X: You've created the directories? Then try this in a console as root: mount -t ext3 /dev/hdd1 /mountpoint (where 'mountpoint' is the directory onto which you want to mount hdd1
[09:43] <BackPacker> B_166-ER-X: if that works, you can add entries to /etc/fstab
[09:43] <n2diy> shawoho: so how many megs are the claiming you DLed?
[09:43] <xmOD> wahro: mount the drive using the live cd
[09:43] <Sub7> how can i install my gens emulator

[09:43] <mvfeinstein> Hello, I am trying to adjust my display settings. The way they are now my max res is 1024x768 but I know I can go higher then that. I edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf and added the resolution I wanted but after reboot I am still stuck at 1024x768. Can anyone tell me what else I need to change to get it to work?
[09:43] <hey560> beryl
[09:43] <B_166-ER-X> its jsut temporary, so no need to fstab
[09:43] <hey560> hello?
[09:43] <BackPacker> B_166-ER-X: Oh, ok.
[09:43] <user01_> how do i add screensavers?  i remember an old one called xjack
[09:43] <B_166-ER-X> thankx a lot :)
[09:44] <red_> I really need help setting up a home network with NFS. Everything is installed and both computers are setup and wireless connected to my router. Any Help?
[09:44] <Sub7> mvfeinstein: you need to install your video card drivers
[09:44] <hey560> does anyone know why the HP Laserjet III is removed from edgy, it was supported in Dapper/
[09:44] <m0e> Iis this thing on?
[09:44] <hey560> how can i find out which driver i should use for my hp laserjet III printer
[09:44] <BackPacker> B_166-ER-X: you're welcome. And you can find out more about it by doing 'man mount' and 'man fstab' in a console
[09:44] <uniqueLikeYou> user01_: try xscreensaver or xlock
[09:44] <shawoho> n2diy: that's the problem they say 320:min:seg not in Mb's
[09:44] <LostProjectile> would someone be able to help me with a wireless network card that's being recognized but not connecting?
[09:44] <RickyRay> anyone happen to know which terastation is the best one to get?
[09:45] <Sub7> LostProjectile: Have you entered your network key (i.e WEP key)
[09:45] <mvfeinstein> Sub7 they were installed by default... I have an ATI X850 XT and and that is what it says in xorg.conf and it is using the ATI driver
[09:45] <LostProjectile> there's no security enabled on the router
[09:45] <BackPacker> red_: It's quite simple. You create a /etc/exports file listing the directories you want to make availabe. You do this on the server. Then on the client you issue mount commands
[09:45] <BackPacker> red_: you need to have certain packages installed, though
[09:45] <LostProjectile> i tried enabling WEP and putting in the network key, but that didn't help
[09:46] <red_> BackParker: packages are installed
[09:46] <n2diy> LostProjectile: are they all on the same channel?
[09:46] <mnoir> !wifi | LostProjectile - have you looked here:
[09:46] <ubotu> LostProjectile - have you looked here:: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:46] <Sub7> How do i install gens emulator :S, the make, configure commands dont work
[09:46] <LostProjectile> i had them set to different channels
[09:46] <red_> i need help setting up the server and client.
[09:46] <BackPacker> red_: then you create an /etc/exports file on the server with lines like this: /data  <IP_ADDRESS>/24(no_root_squash,async,insecure,rw)
[09:47] <riotkittie> Sub7, >> elaborate on "don't work"
[09:47] <n2diy> LostProjectile: they have to be on the same channel.
[09:47] <riotkittie> donw work as in ... "make: command not found" ??
[09:47] <BackPacker> red_: This line makes my /data directory available to all machines on the LAN with address like <IP_ADDRESS>, etc
[09:47] <riotkittie> don't?
[09:47] <mnoir> !nfs | red_
[09:47] <ubotu> red_: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[09:47] <BackPacker> red_: Decide which directories to export and add lines to /etc/exports for each directory, just like that one
[09:48] <Fubarovic> what does ubuntu use for auto mounting cdroms/floppies/ ...?
[09:48] <riotkittie> floppies. heh heh.
[09:48] <Sub7> riotkittie: says In all cases, make sure that you use GNU Make.
[09:48] <n2diy> ! automount
[09:48] <mvfeinstein> Is there anything other then xorg.conf that I need to edit to change my resolution?
[09:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:49] <BackPacker> mnoir: that's the long-winded way of doing it. :-)
[09:49] <riotkittie> hm.
[09:49] <h3xis> mvfeinstein, no
[09:49] <Sub7> then type configure, make then make install

[09:49] <riotkittie> and when you type those commands, is it telling you they dont exist?
[09:49] <Sub7> yes
[09:49] <mvfeinstein> If I change xorg.conf and the changes don't take effect how can I figure out why?
[09:49] <h3xis> xmOD, worldofwarcraft.com has a client available for download
[09:49] <Fubarovic> it can't be dojwnloaded xmOD

[09:50] <riotkittie> Sub7,  >>  type the following into a term   sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:50] <pr0gress0r> if you install an app from source ( not apt-get ) is there a way to clean the app up easily if you no longer have the source to make uninstall?
[09:50] <Klowner> quick question, could anyone tell me how to acquire the UUID of a parititon?
[09:50] <h3xis> xmOD, go to worldofwarcraft.com and check out their free trial they have going on. they give you 10 days to play and a fully functional client for download at no cost
[09:50] <riotkittie> it will install the files that are, well, essential for building :P  including make
[09:50] <blanky> I'm open to questions!
[09:50] <xmOD> h2xis: ok will check it out
[09:51] <Sub7> build-essential is already the newest version.
[09:51] <riotkittie> yikes
[09:51] <mooey> pr0gress0r, you can use checkinstall to make a deb of your make; make install process and then uninstall the deb
[09:51] <pr0gress0r> mooey: thanks!

[09:54] <Gartral> how do i get an archive manager that handles ".rar> type files?
[09:54] <xmOD> !rar | Gartral
[09:54] <n2diy> adub: did you try to add your printer from sys/admin/printers?
[09:54] <ubotu> Gartral: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free

[09:55] <blanky> Sub7: try sudo ./configure
[09:55] <adub> yes i did
[09:55] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: Try gparted
[09:55] <vinnybinny> not an option
[09:55] <Sub7> blanky: sudo: ./configure: command not found
[09:55] <vinnybinny> remote access via ssh
[09:55] <adub> MFC-420CN is my printer type its not listed i tried adding various printers from list just incase same driver was used not happening
[09:55] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: then you can use fdisk
[09:55] <Zaggynl> http://xs411.xs.to/xs411/07016/tux_ns_03_small.png
[09:55] <blanky> try sudo sh configure
[09:56] <RyanGWU82> Quick question: is there a command that lets me open any document from a Terminal window, similar to the Windows "start" command or the Mac "open" command?
[09:56] <vinnybinny> BackPacker: i did
[09:56] <vinnybinny> i created a linux partition
[09:56] <mooey> RyanGWU82, gnome-open
[09:56] <Sub7> : not found: 11:
[09:56] <Sub7> ./configure: 19: Syntax error: "elif" unexpected (expecting "then")
[09:56] <vinnybinny> but i can't mount it
[09:56] <uniqueLikeYou> vinnybinny: mkfs.ext3
[09:56] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: did you do mkfs?
[09:56] <blanky> Sub7: the package is probably faulty
[09:56] <vinnybinny> not yet
[09:56] <blanky> Sub7: try re-downloading it or something
[09:56] <RyanGWU82> mooey -- thanks, I knew I had seen that functionality *somewhere*! :)
[09:56] <adub> i get that error when installing as well
[09:57] <blanky> adub: what error?
[09:57] <n2diy> RyanGWU82: shure, gedit filename
[09:57] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: that formats it as ext3 - and as uniqueLikeYou says, the command is mkfs.ext3
[09:57] <blanky> if you get errors then why did you say it installed
[09:57] <riotkittie> Ryan try gnome-open <document>
[09:57] <adub> blanky /etc/init.d/cups: Command not found.
[09:58] <vinnybinny> PackPacker: thank you
[09:58] <riotkittie> oh i am slow
[09:58] <blanky> adub: sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart
[09:58] <mooey> :~)
[09:58] <RyanGWU82> n2diy: gnome-open was what I was looking for; it uses the file type to open the in the correct associated program, like OpenOffice or Firefox.  Thanks though!
[09:58] <Gartral> ty, next problem, how do i reset gnome? my desktop is all screwed up
[09:58] <vinnybinny> and to add it to be automatically mounted would be editing mtab not fstab?
[09:58] <riotkittie> bbl
[09:58] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: no, you add it to fstab. mtab is automatically generated by the system
[09:58] <adub> -bash: /etc/init.d/cups: No such file or directory
[09:58] <n2diy> RyanGWU82: ah, hadn't heard of that. :)
[09:59] <superdump> i'm sure you guys get this question a lot but i'm using the 6.10 edgy 64-bit desktop livecd and i have an nvidia 7800GT. i can't boot into X properly, i get the nice beige/brown background and the splash image shows but is garbled and then it will go no further

[09:59] <superdump> i seem to recall being able to force the vesa driver somehow but i don't remember how to do it
[09:59] <vinnybinny> BackPacker: i want to add it as the backup drive for a cron job
[09:59] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: Try mounting it first with 'mount -t ext3 /dev/hdc1 /mountpoint', changing hdc1 and mountpoint accordingly
[10:00] <archie> hi
[10:00] <Gartral> now im getting this problem: Could not perform the operation
[10:00] <Gartral> This archive is password protected.
[10:00] <Gartral> Please specify a password with the command: Edit->Password
[10:00] <superdump> is it possible to force the use of vesa in the boot options or do i have to switch to another shell before it boots too far and change the driver in xorg.conf?
[10:00] <Gartral> and password isnt there
[10:00] <adub> blanky any clue?
[10:00] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: ok. All you need to do is to add the line to /etc/fstab. You can then refer to the mountpoint in your cron job rather than referring to the device itself

[10:01] <SmashCat> Hello, anyone know why spamassassin and clamav have been removed from Edgy?
[10:01] <SmashCat> (and sendmail for that matter!)
[10:02] <Sub7> I now have dgen (genesis emulator) but when loading a rom i get sdl: Couldn't open audio: No available audio device!
[10:02] <Sub7> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[10:02] <Sub7> reinstalled 5 times
[10:02] <uniqueLikeYou> archie: ext3 has rw support.
[10:03] <archie> really but it wud be another partition not main system
[10:03] <archie> hope u understand me
[10:03] <chains> when is feisty fawn due out?
[10:04] <BackPacker> archie: once it's formatted as ext3 you can mount it on the 'main system'. Open a console and enter 'man mount' and 'man fstab' for more details
[10:04] <BackPacker> archie: basically, you create a directory to use as a mountpoint, then add an entry in /etc/fstab so that it's mounted automatically
[10:05] <archie> ok thanx it is very important i cud freely manipulate files on it not like in ntfs
[10:05] <jerryb_> help -- problem with update manager on edgy,  I get the message: ImportError: No module named UpdateManager.UpdateManager
[10:05] <uniqueLikeYou> archie: I think so. you have to mount it somewhere. Looks like someone else is helping. good lick
[10:05] <Jowi> Sub7, maybe dgen has got an option to set the correct audio device or to turn off the sound. try "dgen --help" in a terminal
[10:06] <archie> btw am i must to be root for file manipulation ?
[10:07] <Jowi> archie, you decide that when you mount the partition/disk
[10:07] <imbecile> ok guys i installed a few things in the advanced section of synaptic and i dont see them, where would they have gone?
[10:08] <Jowi> archie, (or your file permissions)
[10:08] <BackPacker> archie: not if you edit /etc/fstab and add a line to mount the partition automatically. Then it will be available for all regular users
[10:08] <archie> tnx tnx tnx! nice channel very useful for noobs like me :)
[10:09] <salpro> exit
[10:09] <n2diy> imbecile: you used synaptic to install them?
[10:10] <superdump> i just booted using the safe graphics mode and i noted the "xforcevesa" parameter in the boot options but it also garbles stuff in a slightly different way when that is enabled. i managed to switch to another shell (ctrl+alt+f1) and edit xorg.conf in the safe graphics mode boot and the driver was set to nv, surely safe graphics mode should use vesa...?
[10:10] <imbecile> n2diy,  yes in the advanced section
[10:10] <imbecile> n2diy,  i only see one of about 20-30 things
[10:11] <n2diy> imbecile: I'm not familiar with the advance section, but did you do something to over ride the defaults?
[10:11] <imbecile> n2diy,  i dont believe so i just clicked on the advanced tab
[10:12] <nikasi> anyone know why i get Jan  6 22:11:37 nikasi xinetd[3792] : warning: can't get client address: Transport endpoint is not connected ? my vnc4server doesnt work, and thats what my syslog says about xinetd
[10:13] <jerryb_> help -- problem with update manager on edgy,  I get the message: ImportError: No module named UpdateManager.UpdateManager
[10:13] <n2diy> imbecile: I just checked, I don't even have an advance setting here on 6.06.
[10:14] <imbecile> n2diy,  i do and im running dapper as well.. its a tab on the bottom
[10:14] <lovloss> what would you guys suggest for web page development
[10:14] <malt> whats a example command of creating a account on ubuntu linux with limited access? where its just FTP with proftpd, where regular users can't delete the files?
[10:15] <mikedoty> I can reinstall ubuntu real easy, right?  And my existing files will be safe, I'd just be overwriting the OS itself?
[10:15] <imbecile> n2diy,  right next to the "help" tab
[10:15] <francalier> mikedoty: not unless you have a separate /home partition
[10:15] <lovloss> mikedoty is it on its own partition?
[10:15] <imbecile> n2diy,  thats strange
[10:15] <mikedoty> I think it is its own partition but I'm not positive
[10:15] <mikedoty> I know I made 3 partitions
[10:16] <mikedoty> One for swap, one for something, and one for something.  Perhaps one for the root and one for /home
[10:16] <lovloss> if it is, its safe, but you need to know
[10:16] <mikedoty> How can I confirm?
[10:16] <francalier> type mount in a terminal
[10:16] <lovloss> sounds like one is /home.
[10:16] <francalier> mount | grep /home
[10:16] <n2diy> imbecile: still don't see it, what version of synaptic are you running, I'm using 0.57.8.
[10:16] <mikedoty> What will I wanna see with mount | grep /home to confirm it's its own partition?
[10:17] <francalier> something
[10:17] <mikedoty> (I'm unable to use ubuntu right now, can't get past login screen)
[10:17] <mikedoty> Okay :P
[10:17] <kwtm> With Kubuntu, where is the "trash" directory located in the file structure?  It's not ~/Trash or ~/.Trash, and when I open the actual Trash file manager, it's just listed under "trash://".
[10:17] <francalier> mikedoty: if there's no mount there you'll get no output
[10:17] <francalier> if it says something like /dev/sda3 on /home bla bla bla then you're good to go
[10:17] <imbecile> n2diy,  how do i figure that out?
[10:18] <francalier> just remember to tell the installer that you want to use that existing partition for your /home
[10:18] <kwtm> mikedoty: you want to see "/home" listed on a line by itself.
[10:18] <n2diy> imbecile: from the drop down menu help/about.
[10:18] <ozo> hi
[10:19] <imbecile> n2diy,  it says im running 0.57.8. as well
[10:19] <n2diy> imbecile: WTF?
[10:19] <biberao> hi
[10:19] <biberao> help with partitions please
[10:19] <kaman> who has here jabbin?
[10:20] <imbecile> n2diy,  want me to send ya a screenshot?
[10:20] <biberao> i have 3 partitions
[10:20] <n2diy> imbecile: nah, if I don't have it, I don't have it.
[10:20] <imbecile> n2diy,  thats wierd
[10:20] <kwtm> biberao: Sounds like partition day today --you're not the first with questions about partitions...
[10:21] <n2diy> imbecile: Very.
[10:21] <mikedoty> Ok, thanks for the advice y'all.  Gonna try to reinstall now :)
[10:21] <kaman> who has here jabbin?

[10:21] <Sphynx> Howdy folks.  I'm looking for some general suggestions here as I'm perhaps just missing something obvious here.  My problem is that during shutdown, 50% of the time I'm having a hard lockup.  When I shutdown, it appears that X locks up.  I'm finding nothing in the logs.
[10:21] <biberao> is this correct and i made them all acive
[10:21] <biberao> *active
[10:22] <cratel> trouble configuring synergy. Everything says it is connected but the remote machine screen is staying inactive and the mouse/keyboard are behaving as if only one computer hooked up still.
[10:22] <Jowi> Sphynx, try to disable acpi in grub
[10:22] <imbecile> n2diy,  perhaps you are already in the advanced section.. i noticed the <help> <about> was only available in advanced
[10:22] <Sphynx> To detail the setup, I'm running Edgy on an x86_64 install.  I have Beryl running as well.
[10:22] <Otacon22> Hi all, I have a tv video card, I see beautiful the tv, but I don't listen the audio, I think that the driver work but a setting in the audio preferencies of ubuntu is wrong, someone know what can I do?
[10:23] <Sphynx> Jowi - ACPI a known issue?
[10:23] <n2diy> imbecile: that could be?
[10:23] <francalier> Otacon22: can you listen to other things?
[10:23] <Jowi> Sphynx, no. but most lockups I've encountered during shutdown had to do with it. It's a hunch.
[10:23] <Otacon22> ? other things?
[10:23] <Otacon22> wich others?
[10:23] <francalier> I mean, do you have any sound at all
[10:24] <Otacon22> no, I don't listen anything of the tv, but all of sound of ubuntu
[10:24] <Sphynx> Jowi - Thanks, I'll try that out.  It's a bit frustrating that the logs haven't been more verbose up to this point.
[10:24] <archie> is there any hdd manager in ubuntu with normal gui ?
[10:24] <francalier> Otacon22: what is your input set to?
[10:24] <Sphynx> archie - like KDiskFree?
[10:25] <francalier> Capture
[10:25] <Otacon22> francalier, I don't know, how can i set it?
[10:25] <francalier> go to a terminal and run alsamixer
[10:25] <archie> kdisk .. what if i use gnome ?
[10:25] <francalier> There might be something like "Input Source"
[10:25] <CraZy675> I'm looking to buy a new printer.  Anyone know of some with linux support?
[10:25] <Jowi> Sphynx, yeah. and turning off acpi is safe to try
[10:26] <imbecile> n2diy,  does your synaptic look like this? http://fapomatic.com/show.php?loc=0653&f=screenshot.png
[10:26] <Sphynx> archie - I am using gnome - I often run KDE apps.  I'm not sure what Gnome app would work for it.
[10:26] <BackPacker> CraZy675: HP printers have pretty good Linux support, but the cartridges can be a little more expensive
[10:26] <Otacon22> francalier, I don't find anything of the tv card
[10:26] <archie> yes i know, i use kde apps too.nevermind ill install kdisk tnx again
[10:27] <sanityx> Easy way to figure out what printer to buy is just look at a list of all the printers with built in cups drivers
[10:27] <CraZy675> BackPacker: Thanks
[10:27] <Otacon22> francalier, I am not so expert about audio in linux, drive me in
[10:28] <BackPacker> CraZy675: I've heard that Canon printers should be avoided
[10:28] <theflyingfool> i am thinking about converting my last computer to ubuntu but i dont know if there are programs similar to what i use on windows, does anyone know if there is a program like dBpowerAMP music converter
[10:28] <n2diy> imbecile: no, not at all, must be some setting in prefrences or something?
[10:28] <francalier> Otacon22: I'm not sure
[10:28] <francalier> try alsamixer -c 1
[10:28] <Sphynx> Canon printers SHOULD be avoided under linux, unless you wish to run the TurboPrint drivers, which cost you around $40
[10:28] <imbecile> n2diy,  is it more black and white?
[10:29] <Sphynx> theflyingfool, I'm not sure what all that app does, but there are a plethora of audio apps for Linux.
[10:29] <n2diy> imbecile: yep, and no icons, just text.
[10:29] <theflyingfool> it allows me to convert mp3s to basicaly any format i want
[10:29] <imbecile> n2diy, yeah thats the advanced section
[10:30] <Sphynx> theflyingfool, then yes..  there are conversion apps.  There's also a free conversion tool that is web based for that..  gimme a sec and I'll dig it up.
[10:30] <user01> how can i figure out what kind of wireless card is on my laptop?  i went the manufacturer site and all it says is intel 802.11b Wireless(MPCI)
[10:30] <Jowi> CraZy675, http://www.freestandards.org/en/OpenPrinting/Database/SuggestedPrinters
[10:30] <n2diy> imbecile: ok, anyway, synaptic is good at putting things where the belong, so why you can't find your stuff is a mystery. Do they run from the command line?
[10:31] <BackPacker> user01: Try running 'lspci' in a console
[10:31] <CraZy675> Jowi: Perfect thanks
[10:31] <mon^rch> whats different about feisty??
[10:31] <imbecile> n2diy,  no its games and kismet and airsnort
[10:31] <Sphynx> theflyingfool, http://media-convert.com/convert/index.php allows conversion from something to about anything.
[10:32] <cbrian> i'm having trouble running my live CD
[10:32] <n2diy> imbecile: maybe sudo updatedb would help?
[10:32] <imbecile> n2diy,  ill give it a try
[10:32] <user01> BackPacker: if it lists it there i dont meed to install ndiswrapper?
[10:32] <cbrian> it gets past the loading part, and then its just a blank screen - either black or white
[10:32] <Sphynx> theflyingfool, but, there are a plethora of apps for this purpose.
[10:32] <trev> does anyone here play vegastrike?
[10:33] <BackPacker> user01: No idea if you need ndiswrapper or not. But if you look at the output of lspci, you should see a manufacturer's name and model no. And that would be a start
[10:33] <cbrian> can someone help me?
[10:33] <cyber_brain_mfkg> i want to know how to remove wrong module from startup?(there's no that module in /etc/modules)!first i need to remove wrong and to load correct and my tv card is working but i have to do that every time i start my ubuntu!help?
[10:34] <user01> BackPacker:  Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI
[10:34] <DigitalNinja> is there a log of "apt" on the system? I would like to know what got updated on the last "apt-get upgrade".
[10:34] <imbecile> n2diy,  i think there may be something bad going on my cpu usage stayed at 100% all night and this morning looking at gkrellm i noticed it said 2 users
[10:34] <frederific> user01: does it show up as a wireless network connection in System Menu/Administration/Networking?
[10:35] <BackPacker> user01: I don't know that card, but you could try Googling for it on www.google.com/linux
[10:35] <xtknight> DigitalNinja: cat /var/log/dpkg.log   and look for all the packages that happened within about 10 minutes of each other, that will probably point you in the right direction
[10:35] <n2diy> imbecile: hmmm, I don't know? I think 2 users is normal, I was just in top, and I had two users too.
[10:35] <timmae> cbrian, whats your videocard?
[10:35] <imbecile> n2diy,  ok i was scared
[10:36] <DigitalNinja> xtknight: Thanks. I was looking for something like apt.
[10:37] <BackPacker> user01: You could try the Networking dialog on the System menu to see if your card is listed there
[10:37] <n2diy> imbecile: well, I'm gonna find out right now.
[10:37] <cbrian> timmae: i know it's pretty old. i'm trying to find out what kind it is right now.
[10:38] <n2diy> Is it normal to show 2 users on a system, that only has 1 user logged in? Who is the other user?
[10:38] <DigitalNinja> Should a reboot be done after an "apt-get upgrade"?
[10:38] <cyber_brain_mfkg> !blacklist
[10:38] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add "blacklist modulename" to the end of that list
[10:38] <DigitalNinja> I'm doing this on a server.
[10:38] <frederific> n2diy: each gnome-terminal you have open shows as another user, maybe that's it
[10:38] <theflyingfool> has anyone gotten the cs2 suit running under edgy
[10:38] <exs> anyone know og a DNS I can use?.. I started using opendns, but that bugged me. Is there any public-free dns I can use?.. (which won't log the sites I visit) ?
[10:39] <cyber_brain_mfkg> if i blacklist a module can i load it on startup useing /etc/modules ????
[10:39] <Sphynx> DigitalNinja, No.  Unless the upgrade is to the system chain or kernel, there's never a need for reboot.
[10:39] <n2diy> frederific: yep, thats it, opened another terminal, and now I have 3 users, thk.
[10:39] <timmae> cbrian, i have a SLI system so i had to run my install in text mode :| no LIVE for me :(
[10:40] <frederific> n2diy: no probs
[10:40] <DigitalNinja> Sphynx: What about libraries etc... It doesn't look like I got any on the last upgrade
[10:40] <imbecile> n2diy,  looks like he's right
[10:40] <BackPacker> exs: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=public+DNS&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
[10:40] <Sphynx> DigitalNinja, No.  ldd generally takes care of the libraries.
[10:40] <n2diy> imbecile: yep, I have X open, and a terminal, so that makes two.
[10:40] <cbrian> timmae, what's an SLI system?
[10:41] <timmae> cbrian, 2 nvidia cards
[10:41] <Sphynx> cbrian - Serial Link Interface.  It's the ability to link 2 nvidia cards.
[10:41] <Sphynx> via 16x PCIe slots.
[10:41] <cbrian> ok, my video card is an "Intel(R) 82810E Graphics Controller"
[10:42] <DigitalNinja> Sphynx: I see. When I did my upgrade it said something about not upgrading the kernel. Should I be forcing it to update the kernel?
[10:42] <cyber_brain_mfkg> there's no my_blacklist in /etc/modprobe.d/ should i create it?
[10:43] <Sphynx> DigitalNinja, kernel upgrades are your choice.  If it's a production server, I'd take a look at the changelog and see what's with the new kernel.  What bugs have been fixed, and particularly, what security patches have been put in place.  Unless you just have to upgrade the kernel due to security or functionality, then there's no reason.
[10:44] <Sphynx> DigitalNinja, There will be a lot of folks upgrading soon due to the inclusion of KVM into the kernel.
[10:44] <thecrow> jelo
[10:45] <DigitalNinja> Sphynx: What's KVM? I guess I need join the kernel mailing list or read up on the kernel.
[10:45] <frederific> DigitalNinja: It looks like some sort of virtualization
[10:45] <thecrow> goodnights
[10:46] <Sphynx> DigitalNinja, virtualization at the kernel level.  Basically allows for guest OS installations to run as native processes under a linux install.
[10:46] <DigitalNinja> Sphynx: Sounds cool.
[10:46] <DigitalNinja> I guess I'll have to do my homework when this comes out.
[10:47] <Sphynx> DigitalNinja, it's already out
[10:47] <Sub7> how do i get i386 to work on amd64?
[10:47] <speyer> why burning dvd`s in ubuntu takes 3 times longer then in windows ?
[10:47] <Sphynx> DigitalNinja, It's in the latest kernel release.  I'm not sure if it's in the Ubuntu maintained kernels.
[10:47] <DigitalNinja> Sphynx: I'm just way out of tuch.
[10:47] <imbecile> n2diy, nothing is installing for me in the advanced section, maybe im missing out on a step that you have to do in advanced  I select the file for installation click "apply" and wait for it to install and wait for it to finish.. anything else im not doing?
[10:48] <sayidj> i have a folder full of 7zip compressed files, how do i batch extract them? i can't find out anywhere.
[10:48] <DigitalNinja> I guess I've got some reading to do.
[10:48] <n2diy> imbecile: click on the package you want to install, mark it for installation, and then click on the apply button.
[10:48] <Sphynx> speyer, there's a few possibilities.  You haven't tuned dma perhaps via hdparm, or perhaps you're needing your burning perms to run as root.
[10:49] <thecrow> madre de dios bendito....la de pea que hay aqui metia
[10:50] <speyer> Sphynx i think that i i did tuned dma with a guy few hours later and still slow
[10:50] <speyer> Sphynx btw im on dapper ...

[10:51] <imbecile> n2diy,  dang something must be wrong.. i redid my sources.list last night maybe thats it.. have time to look at my pastebin of sources.list?
[10:52] <Sphynx> speyer, Ubuntu releases mean nothing to me.  I'm new to the distro.  Linux is linux.    I guess one way you could try it would be to open K3B or whatever burner you use via the terminal as a sudo session.
[10:52] <n2diy> sure, but first, are you marking the files for intallation, before hitting the apply button?
[10:52] <|Sora|> what is the ubuntu equivelent command for "su -p" ?
[10:52] <imbecile> n2diy,  yeah i am
[10:52] <speyer> it is possible to edit fstab so that when i boot my machine i can choose which system i want to run ubuntu or windows even if they are on diff hdd ?
[10:52] <nikasi> ello i just installed freenx and im getting Authentication failed while trying to login, anyone know why? :p
[10:52] <n2diy> imbecile: ok, lets take a look at your sources.
[10:52] <arrenlex> speyer: That's not your fstab, that's your grub conf (/boot/grub/menu.lst). And yes.
[10:52] <erUSUL> speyer: no fstab you have to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:53] <mnoir> speyer: no - you do that in grub
[10:53] <speyer> Sphynx ok thanks
[10:53] <Sphynx> speyer - sec
[10:53] <imbecile> n2diy,  I see the files in etc!!!! wth?
[10:53] <speyer> arrenlex erUSUL mnoir thank you
[10:53] <arrenlex> speyer: ...pardon? o_O
[10:53] <Sphynx> speyer - here..  try this...
[10:53] <Sphynx> speyer - http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=128721&highlight=burning+is+slow
[10:54] <n2diy> imbecile: ok, so you did get them, I was thinking synaptic should give you an error if it couldn't find the sources. WTF?
[10:54] <Ben^> Hey
[10:54] <speyer> arrenlex erUSUL mnoir now works fine the grub.conf its ok but im going to move the linux system on a different hdd will the windows section from grub.conf still be useful as it is now ?
[10:54] <nikasi> hm where can i see my SSH DSA key?
[10:54] <Ben^> I am trying to install Ubuntu Edgy on my laptop but am getting a problem where X always starts with a skewed screen.
[10:54] <n2diy> imbecile: what happens when you try to run kismet from a terminal?
[10:54] <Ben^> I have an ATI Mobility X1600, which I have heard has this problem, and I need to install drivers to fix it
[10:55] <Sphynx> speyer - you'll need to change your grub as well as your fstab
[10:55] <mnoir> speyer: the answer depends on how you move stuff
[10:55] <Ben^> but question is, how can I install ununtu without seeing the screen ?
[10:55] <imbecile> n2diy,  but why arent they on my menu? i can see asterisk and amphetamine  in my /etc/
[10:55] <Ben^> is there a console mode installer ?
[10:55] <arrenlex> speyer: You can't just move it, because Grub won't be able to find itself and you won't be able to boot anything. You would have to boot from the liveCD and reinstall grub on the new HD.
[10:55] <imbecile> n2diy,  i cant find kismet..its only some of the things i installed
[10:55] <speyer> mnoir Sphynx i only gonna install ubunto on a diff hdd the windows partition stays as it is now
[10:55] <arrenlex> !alternate | Ben^
[10:55] <ubotu> Ben^: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[10:56] <n2diy> imbecile: not all apps get a place in the menu system.
[10:56] <mnoir> speyer: during the install it should find yer win install then
[10:56] <n2diy> imbecile: can you get any of them to run from the terminal?
[10:56] <speyer> arrenlex Sphynx mnoir i will not gonna use the whole grub.conf .. only the windows settings from grub.conf which are staying on the same location will it work ?
[10:57] <Lc_945x3> i screwed up my grub installation by installing windows boot over it
[10:57] <Lc_945x3> can i use the live cd to easily reinstall grub?
[10:57] <speyer> mnoir well i will disconect all other hdds from machine ...to make sure im not deleting something :)
[10:57] <mnoir> during your new install all instsalled osses SHOULD be found
[10:57] <arrenlex> speyer: When you boot your computer, Grub reads its config from where it was installed (ubuntu drive). If you move this drive, Grub will not be able to find its config on boot, and will fail. You will have to repair it.
[10:57] <mnoir> speyer: then it will not find them
[10:57] <Sphynx> speyer - right.  What you'd do is make the partitions on the other hard drive.  Boot up with the liveCD.  Move the files from one hdd to the other.  Edit the fstab.  CHRoot into the files that you moved to the other hard drive, then reinstall grub.  Point your BIOS to that disk as your boot device.
[10:57] <n2diy> Lc_945x3: yes.
[10:57] <Ben^> ubuto thanks, I am currently downloading the alternate ISO, but it will take a while. Would like to get the regular livecd working though. Have tried safe graphics mode, as well as a could of different resolutions, and also the vga=771 option too
[10:57] <Ben^> none work

[10:57] <ubotu> grub: GRand Unified Bootloader. In component main, is optional. Version 0.97-11ubuntu14 (edgy), package size 359 kB, installed size 764 kB
[10:57] <Lc_945x3> thanks n2diy
[10:58] <arrenlex> !grub | n2diy
[10:58] <ubotu> n2diy: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:58] <speyer> Sphynx doenst sound that easy :)
[10:58] <Sphynx> speyer - it really is :)
[10:58] <arrenlex> speyer: Really all you'd have to do is follow the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[10:58] <n2diy> arrenlex: I need the info on how to recover/replace grub after winders killed it.
[10:58] <arrenlex> n2diy: Second link.
[10:59] <arrenlex> n2diy: First link. xD
[10:59] <Sphynx> speyer - the other option is to install on the other hard drive, install grub, make your bios point to that hard drive as 1st boot drive.
[10:59] <arrenlex> n2diy: How about: you count, I read. Together we'll manage.
[10:59] <Boze> Hello, I have gnome-pilot installed, but cant find the launcher or can't cli it. Can anyone help?
[10:59] <n2diy> arrenlex: ah, I see, thanks.
[10:59] <n2diy> arrenlex: :)
[10:59] <arrenlex> Boze: dpkg -L gnome-pilot will list all the files in it. Look for something in /usr/bin
[11:00] <imbecile> n2diy,  "imbecile@HappyLappy:/etc/3ddesktop$ ls    3ddesktop.conf" is all i see in the 3d desktop section
[11:00] <Boze> thanks Arrenlex
[11:01] <cyber_brain_mfkg> how to setup that tvtime use linein as sound source?
[11:01] <n2diy> imbecile: you lost me.
[11:01] <speyer> arrenlex erUSUL mnoir i was just going to put this " http://pastebin.com/853036 " into the new fresh installed grub.conf on the brand new ubuntu os which will be on a diff hdd then windows xp .will i still be able to boot windows ? ( windows wont move )
[11:01] <arrenlex> n2diy: s/he ran "ls". This command only showed 3ddesktop.conf.
[11:02] <speyer> Sphynx also for you
[11:02] <speyer> Sphynx i was just going to put this " http://pastebin.com/853036 " into the new fresh installed grub.conf on the brand new ubuntu os which will be on a diff hdd then windows xp .will i still be able to boot windows ? ( windows wont move )
[11:02] <arrenlex> speyer: Oh, if you're installing ubuntu again, you'll be fine. I thought you were just moving the drive. The install will handle everything.
[11:02] <n2diy> arrenlex: ok, I never played with 3d Desktop, so I don't know what he should be seeing?
[11:02] <speyer> arrenlex yeah a fresh ubuntu install
[11:03] <speyer> arrenlex but on a diff hdd as it is now
[11:03] <n2diy> why not?
[11:03] <speyer> mnoir sorry
[11:03] <Sphynx> speyer - Grub is installed on your MBR.  It's going to be looking for your menu.lst or grub.conf..  which is installed in your linux partition.  If you move it, Grub will freak, which is why you must reinstall Grub after you move your linux partition.
[11:03] <arrenlex> mnoir: If you ask the question to four more people, the girl you like will kiss you! :)
[11:03] <cypruser> What are the differences between GNOME and KDE?
[11:03] <cyzie> during synaptic reload, i got this error: "http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/dists/edgy/main-edgy/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80" and this W: GPG error: http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org edgy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 3FF0DB166A7476EA" what does it means and how can i solve it ?
[11:04] <imbecile> n2diy,  I have stuff that should be in there like "3ddesktop" for example
[11:04] <Sphynx> speyer - if you're reinstalling, just remember to change the boot device order.
[11:04] <mnoir> n2diy: in a world where there at least 2 correct answers to every question, it only confuses beginners
[11:04] <francalier> cyzie: GNOME is for feet and KDE is for dragons.
[11:04] <arrenlex> speyer: If you're installing ubuntu, it will detect and install everything just fine.
[11:04] <mnoir> arrenlex: you offerin? :)
[11:04] <speyer> Sphynx and which will be first ? ubuntu right ?
[11:04] <Sphynx> speyer - actually, just remember to install GRUB on the primary boot hdd
[11:04] <n2diy> mnoir: 10-4 on that!
[11:04] <imbecile> n2diy, in the 3ddesk folder it only had a .conf file
[11:04] <cyzie> hehehe francalier  ?
[11:04] <speyer> Sphynx ok
[11:04] <|Sora|> is there a glass theme in ubuntu?
[11:05] <h3xis> |Sora|, no but check gnome-look.org for one
[11:05] <n2diy> imbecile: what happens if you run locate on it?
[11:05] <speyer> Sphynx but the think is that during install all other hdd where windows is will be disconnected ....
[11:05] <speyer> Sphynx will that still be ok ?
[11:05] <|Sora|> ok h3xis
[11:05] <Sphynx> speyer - leave them connected.
[11:05] <arrenlex> speyer: No, that will not be okay. It won't detect it and you will have to add it to grub manually. I highly recommend you leave it in.
[11:06] <Sphynx> speyer - if you..  yeah, what arrenlex said.
[11:06] <speyer> arrenlex Sphynx ok hope i wont gonna install ubuntu on the wrong hdd over my stuff :))
[11:06] <speyer> arrenlex Sphynx thanks a lot
[11:07] <arrenlex> speyer: Make a backup.
[11:07] <speyer> arrenlex of 500 gb ?
[11:07] <speyer> :)
[11:07] <imbecile> can someone tell me if pastebin is working for them?
[11:07] <Sphynx> speyer - no prob - and you shouldn't.  Make a backup..  but, the installer should identify those partitions as NTFS.
[11:07] <arrenlex> speyer: ...well, you can probably leave the pirated music and porn out of the backup. =P
[11:07] <Sphynx> lol
[11:07] <speyer> arrenlex :))))
[11:08] <speyer> arrenlex a bit less porn yeah :D
[11:08] <imbecile> n2diy,  im trying to pastebin it but it appers pastebin isnt working for me
[11:08] <user01> can i create multiple profiles for wireless card?  at home i want the home profile but when i visit my friend i want to select that profile if necessary
[11:08] <sethly> hewwoh is anybody heah?
[11:08] <Malachi> I have a problem setting my theme in Edgy.
[11:08] <frederific> user01: are you on dapper or edgy?
[11:09] <arrenlex> sethly: Yes. There are currently 963 people here, in fact.
[11:09] <n2diy> imbecile: ok, but it is showing you more than a couple of files right?
[11:09] <Malachi> Theming the controls don't seem to work.
[11:09] <user01> frederific: edgy
[11:10] <Jowi> user01, yes. in "network-admin" you click on "location" at the top and select "create location"
[11:10] <cyber_brain_mfkg> how to setup that tvtime use line in as sound source?i cant her a sound and i have a cable pluged in tvcard and in line in!someone?
[11:10] <imbecile> n2diy,  yes i see files all over my filesystem
[11:10] <frederific> user01: In System/Admin/Networking, you can save a set of settings (SSID etc) as a location (top of the window)
[11:10] <cyber_brain_mfkg> or should i install other tv program?
[11:10] <Sphynx> sethly - I'd simply re-ask the question were I you.  It generally is met with much more enthusiasm.
[11:10] <n2diy> imbecile: ok, so the stuff is there, I wonder if 3D is hiding in a desktop manager? GDM?
[11:10] <Music_Shuffle> And a possible...answer too
[11:10] <Music_Shuffle> :P
[11:11] <kcinna> !samba
[11:11] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[11:11] <imbecile> n2diy,  how do i check?
[11:11] <harushimo> how do I get out of the command line to a gui interface
[11:12] <Sphynx> ubotu - there are a lot of good Samba admin tools.
[11:12] <Sphynx> harushimo - startx?
[11:12] <n2diy> imbecile: I'm not sure, I stick with Gnome. I think you could ctrl+alt+backspace, and then look in options at the log in srceen, but that will kill everything you have running now.
[11:12] <user01> frederific: oh cool
[11:12] <user01> frederific: thanks
[11:12] <imbecile> n2diy,  im only using gnome too i believe
[11:12] <frederific> user01: you can alsoe have a look at networkmanager <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager>
[11:13] <Sphynx> ubotu - try webmin.  It's pretty nifty for administering systems.
[11:13] <frederific> user01: Its beta though, so watch out
[11:13] <Siph0n> hey, where can i find the linux-dri-modules package? i need it for Beryl, and i cant seem to find it :( i have dapper if that makes a diff
[11:13] <Sphynx> ubotu - simplifies the menial crap like setting up log rotations.
[11:13] <n2diy> imbecile: ok I no nothing about 3D, so I can't help you with that.
[11:14] <imbecile> n2diy, what about kismet?
[11:14] <user01> frederific: im just not sure if it is ok to have both wirless and wired on at once
[11:14] <Sphynx> Well - never mind then..  I'm a dork and all of you must be getting a chuckle from it.  Talking to a bot :(  what has become of me?
[11:14] <Tucky> h3xis, its tucker here, u their?
[11:14] <h3xis> Tucky, yes
[11:14] <n2diy> imbecile: ok, lets play with that, at least I know what it does. What happens when you try and run it from a terminal?
[11:15] <blaub`> hi@ i just installed xubuntu here :D
[11:15] <frederific> user01: Sorry, don't know. If I was you, I'd set up one "Location" in system/admin/network for wired, and one for wireless
[11:15] <Tucky> h3xis remember i was having problems with my wireless, well ive got my computer temp. connected to network via cable, could you try and help me get the wireless going?
[11:15] <h3xis> yes
[11:15] <frederific> blaub: Good for you! Welcome to the cult :)
[11:15] <h3xis> Tucky, or try to atleast :P
[11:15] <h3xis> Tucky, the ralink right?
[11:16] <imbecile> n2diy,  how do i run it from terminal? this is too strange
[11:16] <Tucky> ye its ralink chip 61
[11:16] <n2diy> imbecile: umm, type kismet? :)
[11:16] <blaub`> thank you frederific it seams to be quit difficult to handle with that... but i hope i get it to work like i want ^
[11:16] <h3xis> Tucky, k does dapper detect it?
[11:17] <h3xis> Tucky, er dapper detects it but you cant connect, right
[11:17] <Tucky> not using dapper
[11:17] <Tucky> im on the most recent very now
[11:17] <Tucky> 6.10 i think, edgy
[11:17] <h3xis> Tucky, did you upgrade last night or today?
[11:17] <Tucky> today
[11:17] <h3xis> okay
[11:17] <Tucky> about 2 hrs ago
[11:17] <h3xis> so it still freezes?
[11:18] <Tucky> no, it shows two wireless connections, wlan0 and wmaster0 but neither of them can see any networks
[11:18] <h3xis> what is wmaster0
[11:18] <imbecile> n2diy,  i get an error saying its not configured yet
[11:18] <Tucky> so i dnt think either of them are my wireless card, i need to put in the ralink driver but cant seem to do it, tried to do it for last 2 hrs
[11:18] <Tucky> wmaster0 is a wireless connection in my network settings
[11:19] <imbecile> n2diy,  i also noticed it said alot of the files were installed to desktop
[11:19] <cyber_brain_mfkg> how to setup that tvtime use line in as sound source?i cant her a sound and i have a cable pluged in tvcard and in line in!someone?
[11:19] <n2diy> imbecile: Good, at least it is being found. I never played with it, so I don't know how to configure it?
[11:19] <h3xis> Tucky, can you run sudo lspci -vv and copy/paste it to www.pastebin.ca and post the link here?
[11:19] <n2diy> imbecile: Ah, minimize everything, and see what is on your desktop.
[11:19] <castoff> cyber_brain_mfkg what tvcard?
[11:20] <adub> what is a wireless program that will allow me to select an access point to connect to from ubuntu
[11:20] <h3xis> adaptr, network-manager-gnome
[11:20] <bulmer> iwlist
[11:20] <bulmer> adub iwlist
[11:21] <adub> is iwlist gui
[11:21] <Bergcube> I have an oldish laptop that just manages to run Gnome. I'd like to remove Ubuntu and replace it with Xubuntu, getting rid of the Gnome and heavy apps. The PROBLEM is that this laptop has no CD, no Floppy, and BIOS is too old to boot from anything USB. Can I use apt to reduce it to a generic CLI-only system and then upgrade that to Xubuntu???
[11:21] <h3xis> adub, no
[11:21] <BackPacker> adub: iwlist will list available APs, and iwconfig will allow you to configure the card to use one
[11:21] <h3xis> adub, network-manager-gnome lets you point and click and choose which SSID to connec tto
[11:22] <adub> h3xis i went to network-manager-gnome and i selected my wireless card and it did not show aps
[11:22] <adub> i guess ill reload into linux and see what happens
[11:22] <graulich> I updated firefox and then updated some addons and now Firefox won't start.
[11:22] <Tucky> h3xis, the link is http://pastebin.ca/308541
[11:22] <graulich> I updated firefox and then updated some addons and now Firefox won't start. What can I do to salvage my firefox?
[11:23] <h3xis> Tucky, alright
[11:23] <h3xis> Tucky, does it freeze like it did the last time?
[11:23] <sedra> hello how to configure the ati driver  on ubuntu 6.10?

[11:23] <h3xis> !ati | sedra
[11:23] <ubotu> sedra: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:23] <Christopholus> hello all
[11:23] <Tucky> no it wont even see the ssid for the network now
[11:23] <n2diy> imbecile: what, your HD?
[11:23] <Tucky> it does nothing at all!
[11:23] <Sphynx> Bergcube, I'm sure there's a way via the alternate install disks.  I'm too new to Ubuntu to know their ways..  if there's no way to do it via Ubuntu, I'd recommend a Gentoo GRP install.
[11:24] <imbecile> n2diy,  yeah
[11:24] <h3xis> Tucky, okay, hold on
[11:24] <cyber_brain_mfkg> castoff, kworld!
[11:24] <n2diy> imbecile: why?
[11:24] <Tucky> ok :)
[11:24] <imbecile> n2diy,  so i can get a more default setup and see where these files are going
[11:25] <Bergcube> Sphynx~  The machine has no optical drive.  I need to do it from the CLI and the current Ubuntu 6.10.  I managed to get Ubuntu into it but that was by way of setting up a PXE boot server just for this.......
[11:25] <graulich> how can I get firefox to work when it won't start after I updated some addons?
[11:25] <Christopholus> WOW... finallly got into this channel...
[11:25] <cyber_brain_mfkg> castoff, i've finaly found modules to load and now i have a picture but no sound and cannot use remote!
[11:25] <n2diy> imbecile: well, if you want to start with a clean slate, that is a good way to do it.
[11:25] <i|D> hello:|
[11:26] <iwkse> hi, there's a way to install gephex on ubuntu?
[11:26] <phaedrus44> graulich:  sudo apt-get remove firefox*
[11:26] <nikasi> ello just installed freenx in xubuntu, everything is fine except i get a black screen when i log on ? shouldnt i be getting Xfce?
[11:26] <Sphynx> Bergcube - ahhh...  I see.  You could maybe use RSync or SystemImager to pull down an image once you're pxe booted.  Build the image elsewhere?
[11:26] <i|D> How can I set socks5? I wanna connect with socks5 at 'ssh'
[11:26] <graulich> phaedrus44: if I apt-get remove and then apt-get install it, will it save all my settings and addons?
[11:27] <imbecile> n2diy,  how do i do backup of amule? thats the only thing im worried about it will set me back a few days if i have to delete that
[11:27] <leviathan> somebody can say me a site for install and config a ejabberd server?
[11:27] <phaedrus44> home/user/.firefox   and save the crap you want
[11:27] <leviathan> somebody can say me a site for install and config a ejabberd server?
[11:27] <Bergcube> Sphynx~  Sure.  If I had the PXE server still.  That was a one-time stunt to get it working at all.  And that is why this is a problem at all.  Had I been able to use a CD or had the PXE server it'd be straightforward.
[11:27] <Sphynx> BergCube - we do something very similar using SystemImager.
[11:27] <Tucky> h3xis ??
[11:27] <i|D> Can I?
[11:27] <Sphynx> BergCube - gotcha...
[11:27] <phaedrus44> graulich:  may be .mozilla
[11:27] <h3xis> Tucky, still looking. so far things look grim because im reading forum posts from people who have the rt2600 chipset and they have no problems.
[11:28] <n2diy> imbecile: not sure, what is amule?
[11:28] <imbecile> n2diy,  p2p app
[11:28] <cyber_brain_mfkg> castoff, u have solution or not?just to know to look somewhere else!!!
[11:28] <Tucky> i found some forum posts saying how to put the driver in but it didnt work, unless if you wanna connect to my linux and try it?
[11:28] <h3xis> Tucky, where's the post
[11:28] <phaedrus44> ehe
[11:29] <Tucky> hold on il find it again
[11:29] <i|D> Where can I set, that I connect at 'ssh' via socks5?? Where can I??
[11:29] <thecrow> please for spanish chat???
[11:29] <i|D> I wanna connect to an root with socks5
[11:29] <i|D> How can I?
[11:29] <Sphynx> Bergcube, just curious..  I'm gonna assume that the big thing about XUbuntu is that is uses Flux or something lighter to run the WM?  If that's the case, why not just uninstall gnome, and apt-get fluxbox?
[11:29] <i|D> I didnt found anything on ubuntu
[11:29] <castoff> cyber_brain_mfkg try this http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Installation_Guide looks like you play with the card number until sound works
[11:30] <i|D> Is there any terminal command?

[11:30] <thecrow> thx...

[11:31] <Bergcube> Sphynx~  Well, that IS indeed the last resort.  But I would like to get the system as "clean" as possible.  Get rid of extras that have been added on the way etc.  And I do not know apt well enough to be sure how to do that.....
[11:31] <n2diy> imbecile: you haven't tried yet. Kismet wants to play, but it need to be configured, everybody has to do that.
[11:32] <sedra> imbecile!!!
[11:32] <graulich> how can I do cp without it omitting a hidden folder?
[11:32] <Sphynx> Bergcube, I see :)  I'm just feeling my way around Apt as well..  I come from ports, emerge, or *shudder* rpm systems.  I'm sorry I can't be of more assistance.

[11:33] <Christopholus> Ok.... quick question... what do I use to install things correctly with ubuntu
[11:33] <erUSUL> graulich: no problem
[11:34] <BackPacker> Christopholus: quick answer: apt-get install packagename
[11:34] <imbecile> actually imbecil
[11:34] <Sphynx> Bergcube, it's nasty.. but there are reworks in the makes to resolve the dependency hell issues.  It's only too bad that the top two Enterprise (According to CTOs..) distros are RPM based..  RedHat and SuSE
[11:34] <imbecile> or something of the sort
[11:34] <Christopholus> are you talking about Synaptic
[11:34] <n2diy> Christopholus: click on system/admin/synaptic

[11:35] <Christopholus> what else am I doing wrong
[11:36] <frederific> Christopholus: what do you mean by nothing works
[11:36] <Sphynx> Christopholus, explain "nothing works"
[11:36] <Christopholus> Ok...
[11:36] <leviathan> some webamil server for ubuntu?
[11:36] <leviathan> webmail
[11:36] <leviathan> ...
[11:36] <Christopholus> I have attempted play video ile
[11:36] <Christopholus> from firefox and it kills the page
[11:36] <Sphynx> leviathan, Squirrel Mail works across all linux distros.  Just need to have Postfix / Cyrus configured properly
[11:37] <castoff> Christopholus have you installed video plugins?
[11:37] <h3xis> Tucky, you followed these instructions exactly with no errors and it still doesnt work?
[11:37] <imbecile> n2diy,  now i get "W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/a/achilles/achilles_2-4.2ubuntu2_i386.deb  Could not connect to localhost:4001 (<IP_ADDRESS>). - connect (111 Connection refused)"
[11:37] <graulich> phaedrus44: I removed then installed firefox and the problem stays the same.
[11:37] <Sphynx> Christopholus, Perhaps a flash bug?  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283364  A list of known bugs and their workarounds.
[11:37] <Tucky> it wouldnt do all it says
[11:37] <Tucky> it kept bringing up errors which wernt ment to happen
[11:38] <Christopholus> well... I am not familiar with Linux... so
[11:38] <Christopholus> so I am still not getting where things are to make work properly
[11:38] <n2diy> imbecile: I wouldn't worry about that, it is an old 2.4.2 repo.
[11:38] <h3xis> Tucky, what kind of errors
[11:38] <Tucky> h3xis any ideas?
[11:38] <Spyder_uk> hi guys, does anyone have a problem when using beryl that programs start minimized and wont maximize, meaning you have to close and try again
[11:39] <Tucky> cant create folders or move files, so i tried doing those myself wen it said things like that
[11:39] <Christopholus> like I am looking at the package manager now and I see multimeida (univeral and multiversial)
[11:39] <Christopholus> which do I sue
[11:39] <Christopholus> use*
[11:39] <h3xis> tucky and you did it all as root?
[11:39] <tuxedup> does ubuntu support 2dand 3d accel in the via xorg driver for the cle266 out of thoe box?  Or do I have to compile the driver manually with the openchrome source?
[11:39] <Sphynx> Fairwell all.  Jowi - thanks again for the tip.

[11:41] <Tucky> i dont think i have but if you give me the link il get it and install it quickly
[11:41] <h3xis> Tucky, sudo apt-get install ssh. if you have a router set up port forwarding
[11:41] <Ninja> Port forwarding!
[11:41] <Ninja> :D
[11:41] <Tucky> h3xis hold on
[11:41] <s3bby> how to remove "-- MARK --" from messages.   syslogd -m  can't find where its triggered?
[11:42] <n2diy> imbecile: looks ok, as long as your running Dapper?
[11:42] <Tucky> ok i think it downloaded and installed it now
[11:42] <castoff> Christopholus go look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[11:43] <Tucky> hold on whilst i go into router settings
[11:43] <imbecile> n2diy,  yeah i am
[11:44] <imbecile> n2diy, i keep on getting connection refused from repos
[11:44] <Tucky> h3xis what did i need to put in the port forwarding?
[11:44] <imbecile> n2diy, i cant install anything now
[11:44] <h3xis> Tucky, what kind of router
[11:44] <kane77> hi
[11:45] <Tucky> sitecom mimo
[11:45] <kane77> i have a question that has nothing to do with ubuntu... can I ask?
[11:45] <n2diy> imbecile: all of them?
[11:45] <hextor> Hello everyone - I am having a problem with the automount of one of my drives, even if it is on the fstab file. Mounting it manually works. Perhaps anyone could help? Thanks!
[11:45] <h3xis> kane77, try
[11:45] <imbecile> n2diy,  anything i try to install gets errors saying connection refused
[11:45] <frederific> Tucky: Just something to note (and no offence meant to h3xis, I'm sure you're an honest guy that knows what you're talking about), be wary of allowing people you don't know to ssh in to your box, especially if you're giving them root access
[11:45] <Daishi> hextor: put the line of it here
[11:46] <Tucky> oh ive click new, selected the type of ssh,and its asking for server, the optional info after, what do i put in??
[11:46] <hextor> /dev/hda6       /datashare     vfat    defaults,uid=XXX,gid=YYY,umask=000 0 0
[11:46] <kane77> I want to buy a wifi router... and I need 1 input for wifi antena and 1 output for wifi (AP).. can normal ones do this??
[11:46] <h3xis> Tucky, is it asking for app name, port (start and end), and IP?
[11:46] <Tucky> ok thanks frederific but their is nothing on this hard-drive except the install of linux
[11:46] <Tucky> yes it is h3xis
[11:47] <hextor> a manual" mount /dev/hda6 /datashare " works but somehow it does not get mounted in the beginning. Any tips?
[11:47] <h3xis> Tucky, k for the app name type ssh, for port (start and end) make it 22, for IP make it your internal IP (do this by running ifconfig and lookig for your IP for your wired connection) and enable it
[11:47] <dark> hi people, am I the only with a problem with his right and left arrows on his laptop keyboard ? They don't work at all... Im using Edgy Eft
[11:47] <frederific> Tucky: OK, just didn't want you to accidentally let some so ne'er-do-well in that could trash your main PC
[11:48] <h3xis> kane77, why?
[11:48] <jikanter> dark: what laptop are you using?
[11:48] <kane77> h3xis, I want to build a wifi network...
[11:48] <dark> hp tc 4400
[11:49] <h3xis> kane77, alright, why do you need a router that has sep antennaes each for sending and receiving?
[11:49] <break_> aren't all routers like that?
[11:49] <h3xis> no
[11:49] <Snide> hey guys
[11:49] <break_> i know that all the linksys WRT's are
[11:49] <h3xis> no they arent
[11:49] <Tucky> h3xis what it asks me for is, service type, and theirs a drop down with ssh in so i selected that, the it asks for server, then it says optional info and it asks for port, folder, user name, name to use for connection, what should i put in each one?
[11:49] <Snide> i have got a plm, i cant see a trash icon on my desktop .. how do i get it back?
[11:50] <h3xis> break_, the wrt54g has 2 for "maximum coverage"
[11:50] <break_> thats funny
[11:50] <kane77> h3xis, yea exactly
[11:50] <h3xis> what kane77 wants is MIMO
[11:50] <m12> how do I change permissions for using a specific program?
[11:50] <imbecile> WRT are horrible for p2p apps
[11:50] <h3xis> not really
[11:50] <break_> theres an option in its firmware to change what each ant. does what
[11:50] <h3xis> if you have good firmware theyre fine
[11:50] <h3xis> break_, yep
[11:50] <break_> dd-wrt
[11:50] <h3xis> dd-wrt is teh secks
[11:50] <frederific> kane77: most routers (and other radio things, like radio mics) use 2 antennae in a diversity arrangement, wherby it uses the strongest signal out of the two of them
[11:50] <i|D> How can I use socks via OpenSSH ?
[11:50] <kane77> h3xis, the situation is this: I have internet through wifi (antena on my roof and wifi card in my comp) I would like to buy a wifi router to cover my house so I put wifi into second computer and wire connect the other...
[11:50] <break_> i have a WRT54GS v5 right now :(
[11:51] <break_> it barely works
[11:51] <break_> haha
[11:51] <vinnybinny> BackPacker: thanks for the help earlier
[11:51] <Snide> Guys, how do I bring back the Trash icon .. or recyle bin back to my desktop, OR how do I access the trash's folder by command or whatever?
[11:51] <h3xis> Tucky, let me look it up
[11:51] <Tucky> h3xis??
[11:51] <Tucky> ok
[11:51] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: you're welcome
[11:51] <h3xis> kane77, just set up multiple APs using WDS
[11:51] <alvgaro> !LIST

[11:51] <Snide> !trash
[11:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about trash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:52] <castoff> i|D do you mean ssh through a socks server?
[11:52] <kane77> h3xis, are you able to change mac adress of the router??
[11:52] <i|D> Yes castoff
[11:52] <castoff> i|D look at dante
[11:52] <i|D> dante
[11:52] <i|D> Whats this?
[11:52] <h3xis> kane77, yes, but why do make it sound complicated if all you want is a signal throughout your house? a simple 80211g will work fine
[11:52] <castoff> i|D socksifies applications
[11:52] <odi3> Anyone have a minute to help me mount a network drive in ubuntu? ( i can get it to mount, but it only lasts for about 30 secs)
[11:53] <kane77> h3xis, I'm not sure my ISP would approve of having router...
[11:53] <LinTux> I have just downloaded Google Earth for Linux, it is a Binary file, how do I install this?
[11:53] <h3xis> kane77, why not?
[11:53] <i|D> ok thx castoff ill try out
[11:53] <metellius> is it so that I can not use ubuntu's hibernation if I don't include a swap partition?
[11:53] <h3xis> kane77, your ISP has no say so
[11:53] <Nvening> Hi, i have read the official ubuntu book which i guess covers the same as the Ubuntu desktop guide in the ubuntu.com documentation. However i would now like to expand my knowledge, particularly in the direction of fixing problems/ troubleshooting. Does anyone know of any good documentation i can read through??
[11:53] <vinnybinny> BackPacker: this is my fstab settings for my new harddisk   /dev/hdb1 /backup ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
[11:53] <i|D> id@uNkn0wn:~/.ssh$ dante
[11:53] <i|D> bash: dante: command not found
[11:53] <castoff> i|D once installed do a man socks.conf
[11:53] <frederific> LinTux: chmod a+x [name of google earth file]
[11:53] <Alec> Hey Nvening, use Google.
[11:53] <Alec> Kekekkeke
[11:54] <Tonren> Hey guys, I'm at a public library that provides free wireless to its visitors.  I have a laptop with Ubuntu Edgy and Windows XP on it.  The wireless works flawlessly in Windows, but it doesn't work AT ALL in Linux.  It's run through a proxy, but it doesn't even lag in Windows.  Can anyone give me a hint about where I could start?
[11:54] <Tucky> h3xis?
[11:54] <frederific> LinTux: then ./[Name of googleearth file]
[11:54] <castoff> i|D install it ;-)
[11:54] <kane77> h3xis, ill try asking him..
[11:54] <alvgaro> HELLO
[11:54] <i|D> where can i find castoff?
[11:54] <h3xis> Tucky, still looking
[11:54] <i|D> i did
[11:54] <Tucky> ok
[11:54] <h3xis> kane77, you dont need to ask
[11:54] <i|D> its ready installed:))
[11:54] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: Looks OK to me. You might want to add 'users' after 'defaults' if you want users to be able to mount/unmount it. Otherwise, it looks fine as it is
[11:54] <FaT32> Hi there!
[11:54] <castoff> i|D the command is socksify but you have to configure
[11:54] <frederific> hello
[11:54] <Jowi> Nvening, most of us probably got experience from using the system.
[11:54] <i|D> where can i configure?
[11:54] <i|D> where is the config?
[11:54] <kane77> h3xis, I'll draw you a picture of what I want to achieve... (l'm good at drawing :D I work as graphic)
[11:54] <castoff> i|D once installed do a man socks.conf
[11:55] <i|D> which dir?
[11:55] <h3xis> kane77, this is good :)
[11:55] <i|D> id@uNkn0wn:~/.ssh$ man socks.conf
[11:55] <i|D> Kein Manual-Eintrag fr socks.conf vorhanden
[11:55] <vinnybinny> BackPacker: now how would i go about setting up a automatic backup of a couple directories every friday @ 7pm? via cron
[11:55] <Nvening> Yep jowi, that as well
[11:55] <i|D> No entry for socks.conf
[11:55] <castoff> i|D it socks.conf is in /etc but on some you have to create it
[11:56] <i|D> okay
[11:56] <Jowi> Tonren, have you installed network-manager-gnome ?
[11:56] <i|D> what must i input?
[11:56] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: Depends on how you want to do the backup. I'd write a script to do the backup using rsync (or cpio, or just cp) and make a cron entry for it
[11:56] <i|D> or where can i get an exist config?
[11:56] <i|D> for example
[11:56] <FaT32> I have a problem. I used command prompt to change my xorg.conf due to problems... After that I finally got Gnome... So, how to continue my installation from that Live CD?
[11:56] <Tonren> Jowi: I've been using nm-applet and wifi-radar.
[11:56] <vinnybinny> BackPacker: rsync would be great
[11:56] <Tucky> 8-)
[11:56] <Tonren> Jowi: I tried using network-manager-gnome about 6 months ago, and it was godawful - slow, crashy, buggy.  I removed it as soon as I figured out how.  Do you think it might work now?
[11:57] <castoff> i|D look in /usr/sshare/doc/
[11:57] <Jowi> Tonren, so it detects the networks alright but can not connect to them or what exactly is the problem?
[11:57] <Jowi> Tonren, nm-applet works flawless for me
[11:57] <castoff> i|D sorry my conf file is at work so can't give specifics
[11:57] <h3xis> Tucky, what is the model
[11:57] <Tonren> Jowi: It connects, it gets an IP.  When I try to navigate to a website, it brings up the library's "Click 'I Accept' For Wireless Access" page.
[11:57] <castoff> i|D sorry in /usr/share/docs/
[11:57] <i|D> id@uNkn0wn:/usr/share/doc$ dir | grep socks
[11:57] <i|D> libfs6                           tsocks
[11:57] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: Hold on and I'll check my own scripts...
[11:57] <i|D> yes
[11:57] <Tucky> h3xis wl-153
[11:57] <i|D> its tsocks?
[11:58] <frederific> Tonren: what happens when you click I accept?
[11:58] <vinnybinny> BackPacker: k :)
[11:58] <Tonren> Jowi: I scroll down, hit "I Accept", and it loads the library's page.  For about 30 seconds, I can access websites and ping them.  After that, nothing works.  I can't ping, I can't load sites, I can't connect to XChat or Gaim or anything.
[11:58] <castoff> i|D not sure sorry i'm not at work
[11:58] <i|D> ok
[11:59] <castoff> i|D try man socks.conf
[11:59] <Moon_Rabbits> Is it possible for me to add a new folder type thing to the 'computer' place?
[11:59] <Jowi> Tonren, sounds more like a connection problem (or a driver one? not sure). do you have a proper signal to the network?
[11:59] <i|D> There is no entry to socks.conf
[11:59] <h3xis> Tucky, http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Sitecom/WL-153/SSH.htm
[11:59] <Tonren> Jowi: I'm on the network right now in Windows.  It's working flawlessly.
[11:59] <i|D> I tryed
[11:59] <Moon_Rabbits> I have Filesystem, but I would like to add another one for my other harddrive.
[11:59] <Snide> so nobody know how to access the trash folder?
[11:59] <Tonren> Jowi: When I connect using the command line - ifconfig, iwconfig and dhclient - I can see that it takes a long time to get an IP address, and when it does, a lot of duplicate packets get sent.
[11:59] <BackPacker> vinnybinny: Do you want to back up to another machine or to the same machine?
[11:59] <castoff> i|D hang on i'll install it
[11:59] <Tucky> h3xis ok il have a look at it, gimmy 2 mins
[11:59] <Moon_Rabbits> Snide: the trash folder is in the lower right corner of the screen
[11:59] <odi3> trash folder is bottom right corner of window isnt it?
[11:59] <maddash> snide: huh?
[11:59] <purplemunkz> hi everyone ...
