[02:22] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: yeah
[02:22] <MajorPoopyPants> is vmware free?
[02:22] <bastid_raZor> xinerama is how i got dual monitors working
[02:22] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: VMware server is
[02:22] <astro76> MajorPayne, vmware player and server, not workstation
[02:22] <olskolirc> hell with vmware get virtualbox
[02:22] <Belboz99> alecwh: Gutsy Gibbon is supposed to make multiple monitors a breeze
[02:22] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: Which is what i'm using
[02:22] <alecwh> !xinerama
[02:22] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[02:22] <bulmer> dimas__: oh well, you have to try and see if you need more
[02:22] <olskolirc> its better then vmware and its free
[02:22] <Poromenos> i don't know about better than vmware...
[02:22] <alecwh> Gusty Gibbon?
[02:22] <bastid_raZor> but i have a shatty video card, i'm soon to buy a pci-e card that is made to push dual monitors
[02:22] <MajorPoopyPants> I dont know what the difference is, but im jut trying to get ghost running
[02:22] <astro76> MajorPoopyPants, basically not the only one that let's you create machines easily
[02:22] <THJ> Folks, here's a quick question: What tool do you use to read InnoDB binary logs as generated by MySQL?
[02:23] <Jordan_U> alecwh, Next version of Ubuntu
[02:23] <dimas__> bulmer>> i have another question...hold on
[02:23] <alecwh> oh.
[02:23] <olskolirc> its nearly impossible to load vmware in ubuntu
[02:23] <MajorPayne> Jordan_U, astro76: Why you all highlighting me?
[02:23] <Poromenos> olskolirc: what are you talking about, it took me 5 minutes
[02:23] <Jordan_U> olskolirc, Works fine for me
[02:23] <alecwh> I'd like a solution until then. X|
[02:23] <Belboz99> alecwh: it's due for release on October 19th IIRC
[02:23] <Justi2> Is it possible to install quicktime using WINE?
[02:23] <astro76> MajorPayne, sorry, it's MajorPoopyPants  :p
[02:23] <Poromenos> MajorPayne: they mean MajorPoopyPants
[02:23] <olskolirc> i tried and tired
[02:23] <MajorPoopyPants> its all good
[02:23] <olskolirc> loading linux-source ect
[02:23] <pushpop> would vmware-server perform better on 64bit ubuntu or 32bit?
[02:23] <MajorPayne> Ohh.  Lol.  Ok, sorry.
[02:23] <olskolirc> i have fiesty fawn
[02:24] <Jordan_U> MajorPayne, Sorry, your name is the same begginging as MajorPoopyPants and I use tab completion :)
[02:24] <dimas__> bulmer>>>The Makefile which controls the compiling process for this driver has to be told to use gcc-3.4 instead of the default version 4.0:
[02:24] <dimas__> export CC=gcc-3.4
[02:24] <dimas__> This sets the environment variable CC, which is used in the spac5xx Makefile to select the compiler.
[02:24] <Belboz99> alecwh: you can download the Alpha version right now, its' Tribe 2, Tribe 3 is due in another week or two
[02:24] <astro76> MajorPayne, have to type 7 chars for a tab completion on him!! ;)
[02:24] <alecwh> What's the downside to those?
[02:24] <puff> For anybody who was following my earlier wireless drama, the problem was that eth0 had the same suebnet.
[02:24] <Jordan_U> astro76, No, just hit tab twice
[02:24] <dimas__> bulmer>> how do i work around with the makefile? thats my question
[02:24] <Belboz99> alecwh: I'm not sure if multiple monitor support is implemented yet or not though
[02:24] <bulmer> dimas__: those can be set within the Makefile..
[02:24] <THJ> For the people who aren't answering my question because they think I ought to read man pages or Google it instead: I already tried those, so help?
[02:25] <alecwh> Ok.
[02:25] <astro76> Jordan_U, thanks, I actually just found that today :)
[02:25] <MajorPayne> astro76, Jordan_U: It's ok.  I didn't notice him.
[02:25] <alecwh> Well.... Is my video card considered good?
[02:25] <Belboz99> alecwh: it's highly beta right now, I couldn't even get into the GUI when I tried it, even on the Live CD :(
[02:25] <alecwh> GIGABYTE GV-NX73G128D-RH GeForce 7300GS 512MB(128MB on board) GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Video Card
[02:25] <Jordan_U> THJ, I don't think anyone thinks that, they just can't help you
[02:25] <Justi2> Is it possible to install quicktime using WINE?
[02:25] <dimas__> bulmer>>so you type over in the same file?
[02:25] <Belboz99> alecwh: how much RAM is on your motherboard?
[02:25] <bulmer> dimas__: modify the Makefile
[02:25] <Jordan_U> Justi2, Yes
[02:26] <dimas__> bulmer>how? on the terminal?
[02:26] <astro76> THJ, indeed, that's a pretty specific/obscure question for this channel
[02:26] <Jordan_U> !appdb | Justi2
[02:26] <ubotu> Justi2: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[02:26] <THJ> astro76: well, where would you take it? #mysql maybe?
[02:26] <Justi2> jordan_u thanks
[02:26] <THJ> I haven
[02:26] <Jordan_U> Justi2, np
[02:26] <bulmer> dimas__: use vi or emacs
[02:26] <alecwh> Belboz99, 2 gigs
[02:26] <THJ> 't tried and seen if there is a MySQL channel...
[02:26] <astro76> THJ, worth a shot I guess
[02:26] <alecwh> How do I install xinerama?
[02:27] <astro76> THJ, even #linux maybe
[02:27] <Jordan_U> !xinerama | alecwh
[02:27] <ubotu> alecwh: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead

[02:27] <bulmer> dimas__: okay..never mind me then
[02:27] <Belboz99> okay, anyone know what this is all about?

[02:29] <kitche> does anyone know what dwm-tools has in it like dwmenu and such?
[02:29] <Belboz99> brisr: I've had this problem as well with my card reader in my printer, sometimes it reads, sometimes it doesn't.  You can manually mount it if the automount fails
[02:29] <Jordan_U> brisr, Sorry, I was sure there was a factoid for ipods :)
[02:29] <s25> Hi all looking for some advice any one know a program with a gui that will allow me to convert videos to flv?

[02:30] <Belboz99> Jordan_U: have any ideas on my error?
[02:30] <Jordan_U> brisr, It should always mount as an external drive though
[02:30] <brisr> it should..
[02:30] <Jordan_U> Belboz99, No
[02:30] <bulmer> !vi | dimas__
[02:30] <ubotu> dimas__: Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) | Terminal-based editors: vi/vim, emacs, and nano (user-friendly). | HTML/CSS editors: !html | Programming: !code
[02:30] <Belboz99> Jordan_U: thanks anyway
[02:30] <icekiller> Why I dont run Tibia in driver open source of ati?
[02:31] <bulmer> !vim | dimas__
[02:31] <astro76> dimas__, they are text editors, if you've never heard of them, you'll want something easier like gedit or nano
[02:31] <brisr> Yeah I always have used RoxBox...
[02:31] <unity> Belboz99: i'm still a bit confused as to what to set for the software source, my isp's mirror of ubuntu is at http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/, i don't know what to set as the apt line
[02:31] <icekiller> Why I dont run Tibia in driver open source of ati?
[02:32] <Jordan_U> unity, Your isp's mirror?
[02:32] <Jordan_U> icekiller, The open source driver doesn't support 3D on all cards
[02:32] <unity> Jordan_U: i want to set it as my software source for updates so i don't get charged for downloads
[02:32] <dimas__> thank you guys!! i appreciate
[02:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> Hi!
[02:33] <brisr> OK I got it to work lol thanks for yalls help..
[02:33] <Jordan_U> unity, Ok, I have never heard of an isp setting up such a service, I can help you change it though
Thanks
[02:33] <icekiller> Jordan_U, and i want run tibia and beryl =[
[02:33] <Mocheeze> wow, that was bad, i think my computer was nearly bricked
[02:34] <d4rkmonkey> Hey can anyone help me to set amaroK to do something when I put in a CD?
[02:34] <Justi2> when I do an itunes/quicktime install with WINE, the installer hangs on "Publishing product information" should I do something different?
[02:34] <Jordan_U> icekiller, ATI cards in general suck on linux, beryl is not going to be easy to set up :(
[02:34] <unity> Jordan_U: thanks, yeah it is a good isp
[02:34] <Jordan_U> Justi2, Did you check the appdb ?
[02:35] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: i think Itunes pretty much sucks w/ wine, at least thats what i've read
[02:35] <icekiller> Jordan_U, i using beryl now.. in ubuntu is easy to install..
[02:35] <Jordan_U> unity, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:35] <astro76> Justi2, it might very well not work, you can try the lastest wine: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[02:35] <d4rkmonkey> I don't think that itunes works in wine because its dependent on quick time
[02:35] <Justi2> jordan_u: I couldn't find it
[02:35] <Jordan_U> icekiller, Then you must be getting 3D acceleration with the open source drivers
[02:35] <unity> yep, got it open Jordan_U
[02:35] <d4rkmonkey> How do I set amarok to play a CD when I insert a CD into my optical drive? I tried replacing sound-juicer with amarok in the removeable drives/media thing, but that didn't work
[02:36] <Jordan_U> icekiller, So I don't know why any 3D program wouldn't run
[02:36] <Jordan_U> !appdb > Justi2
[02:36] <JayRoe> can someone help me out with setting up a remote control through the kernel?
[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: you didn't look very hard...  http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=1347
[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> took about 3sec
[02:36] <icekiller> Jordan_U, if i get 3d acceleration with open source, i can run tibia?
[02:36] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, you'll probably have better luck asking in #kubuntu
[02:36] <d4rkmonkey> astro76, I'm using gnome though...
[02:36] <Jordan_U> icekiller, I would assume so
[02:36] <systemd0wn> QUESTION, ATI x1600 + Beryl + Dual Monitors  ??
[02:36] <KI4IKL> I downloaded a gtk2.0 theme...how do I install it?
[02:37] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, amarok is kde and they probably all use it ;)
[02:37] <systemd0wn> i am finding a lot of stuff on google but nothing that helps in any way
[02:37] <d4rkmonkey> lol
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: GOOD LUCK.. i gave up and bought Nvidia.
[02:37] <d4rkmonkey> astro76, won't set up change though between gnome and KDE?
[02:37] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, you probably need to find the right command line options to pass to amarok
[02:37] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, ya not an option.
[02:37] <iTG`Neatchee> Hi there.  I would like to replace the little ubuntu logo on my menu bar with a custom logo.  Every guide I've found so far hasn't worked.  I'm a running Feisty.  Has anyone been able to get this changed?
[02:37] <cleit0n> hi, please help me, i try install mplayer in dapper, but dont install here
[02:37] <icekiller> Jordan_U, ok.. and where i found this 3d acceleration?
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: don't get to excited that you'll get it to work
[02:37] <d4rkmonkey> astro76, yeah I was basically asking if anyone knew... I guess I'm gonna go for google then :)
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> d4rkmonkey: what do you need to do?
[02:38] <ingo_> hi all! wifi on my macbook suddenly doesn't work - can anyone help please ??!
[02:38] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, how about starting simple... ATI 1600 + Dual Monitors
[02:38] <d4rkmonkey> IndyGunFreak, I need to know the command that will make amaroK open up into the CD thingy
[02:38] <ilu> how does one go about changing from Gnome to KDE?
[02:38] <Jordan_U> unity, replace   http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/ with http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/
[02:38] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: nothing ATI and Linux is simple.
[02:38] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.
[02:38] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, ok simple is a loose term
[02:38] <Jordan_U> unity, Sorry...
[02:38] <JayRoe> Jordan_U you busy?
[02:38] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, amarok --cdplay /dev/cdrom
[02:38] <unity> Jordan_U: ah i see, it needs an extra ubuntu on the end
[02:39] <unity> because there are several distributions there..
[02:39] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: its not even loose in this case... its a dream
[02:39] <astro76> !doesntwork | ingo_
[02:39] <ubotu> ingo_: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[02:39] <d4rkmonkey> thanks unitheory
[02:39] <Jordan_U> unity, replace   http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ with http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/
[02:39] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, welcome
[02:39] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, im a little spent from today, had to read TONS just to get my ASUS P5B Delux Wifi Board to work right.
[02:39] <kbrooks> xum0
[02:39] <d4rkmonkey> unitheory, do you know how I would rip a CD in amarok?
[02:39] <ilu> any1 know how i change from gnome to kde in ubuntu? is it simple or is it complicateD?
[02:39] <B-777> Is there a channel where I can get help with firefox under ubuntu?
[02:39] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, or wherever your cd drive is
[02:39] <Jordan_U> JayRoe, I am helping a lot of people at once :)
[02:39] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: well, at least you got it to work, you probably won't have the same success w/ ATI and Dual Mon.
 this is it boeing 777
[02:39] <KI4IKL> I just downlaoded a gtk2.0 theme...how do I isntall it?
[02:39] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, i have seen it done! with beryl...  If your just going to nay-say dont comment
[02:39] <KI4IKL> manually
[02:39] <JayRoe> Jordan_U no problem
[02:40] <astro76> B-777, this one ;)
[02:40] <vanden> hi all. I stupidly removed the nm-aplet from my tray. (7.04 w/ gnome)I cannot figure out how to get it back. Google gave no joy. ps -e show nm-applet running, but I cannot see it. Anybody able to point me in the right direction?
[02:40] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: beryl and dual monitors are quite different
[02:40] <Frogzoo> KI4IKL: sys -> prefs -> themes: drag/drop the theme in
[02:40] <kbrooks> the chess game, when i select 3D from view, says that i need to install the opengl python bindings and the gtkglext python bindings. how do i do that?
[02:40] <kbrooks> i tried to find the gtkglext python bindings, but i was unsuccessful.
[02:40] <Jordan_U> vanden, Possibly dpkg-reconfigure network-manager-gnome
[02:41] <vanden> Jordan_U: thanks, I'll go try that
[02:41] <kbrooks> does the opengl python bindings include gtkglext?
[02:41] <B-777> I just installed the java runtime plug in for firefox from the synaptic manager, and when I go to a website which uses it, it still tells me I need to install it...;
[02:41] <Jordan_U> vanden, with sudo
[02:41] <kbrooks> or what?
[02:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: right click the bar.  Click Add to panel It is under system...
[02:41] <kbrooks> anyone ...
[02:41] <vanden> Jordan_U: got that, but thanks for making sure :-)
[02:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: It's under system & hardware.
[02:42] <ilu> anyone ? answer my question ? how do i change gnome into kde?
[02:42] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: It isn't in the icon I can choose from, though :-(
[02:42] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, sorry, don't know
[02:42] <Jordan_U> ilu, You want to remove gnome entirely?
[02:42] <d4rkmonkey> unitheory, ok, I'll do a bit more searching into amarok then
[02:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> ilu, yes.  apt-get install kde-desktop
 dont know.. just wondering how it would work
[02:42] <unagi> i love how in linux if something breaks.....you can fix it........not like windows at all
[02:42] <ilu> i was looking at pictures of kde and it looks better than gnome
 that easy?
[02:43] <ingo_> my wifi-connection says that i am connected to wireless .... - but it doesn't resolve any side ... - please help
[02:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> ilu: or use system -> administration -> synaptic and install kde desktop that way.
[02:43] <Rhynri> unagi - A) if you can figure out what broke && B) if you know how to fix it.
[02:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> ilu: yes, it is that easy. :)
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> ilu: you have to be kidding, KDE looks better than gnome?..lol
[02:43] <unagi> thats what this channel and ubuntuforums is for
[02:43] <Jordan_U> ilu, just install kubuntu-desktop
[02:43] <Rhynri> hey, i just restored my home folder, permissions are broke... can i mass reset the permissions for that folder back to myself?
[02:44] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: that's Network-Monitor, which isn't as good as the one I removed by accident.
[02:44] <Jordan_U> Rhynri, sudo chown -R <yourusername> ~/
[02:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> Rhynri: 'chown -R yourname:yourname /home/yourname.

[02:48] <shiester_miester> i hope all that gets fixed in gutsy
[02:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: If I were me, I would open synaptic, search for network manager, right click the two network manager apps and select Mark for complete removal, which removes the config files too.  After removing them, I would reinstall and restart X.
[02:48] <unity> Jordan_U: ignore that last message, i got it     tow ork
[02:48] <unitheory> ingo_, are you sure the ap is connected to the internet?
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester:gday.., wifi is better in Feisty than it was in Edgy
[02:49] <shiester_miester> IndyGunFreak, im pretty sure that most things would be better in feisty since its the updated version :P
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> !wifi | ingo_
[02:49] <ubotu> ingo_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:49] <shiester_miester> im assuming that they wouldnt make anything worse in an upgrade
[02:49] <fiXXXerMet> Where in /dev/ are my serial ports?
 what is ap?
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester: true, but i read something somewhere, can't remember where, where some people thought Feisty took a couple steps backwards on a few things.
[02:49] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: That sound's promising. Any chance that'd bust my ability to get online, though. No fun figuring stuff out with one box that can't get otu to the world :-)
[02:49] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, That is a niave assumption...
[02:49] <nerdygirl_ellie> Wifi isn't so bad, it's just that not a lot of cards have mainstream drivers, and in trying to get ndiswrapper to work, a lot of other things get fiddled around.
[02:49] <shiester_miester> IndyGunFreak, oh ok
[02:49] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, :)
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester: and always remember, Win98 to WinMe... that would be a big step back if you ask me..lol
[02:50] <unitheory> my wifi worked perfectly out of the box (ipw2200)
[02:50] <zhimsel> i have a boot problem. ubuntu starts to boot but stops at /scripts/init-bottom and my caps-lock key starts flashing. i'm running feisty w/ kernel v2.6.20-16. help anyone?
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> my wifi is still at the electronics store.
[02:50] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, true, but im also assuming that people who make ubuntu are more clever that those that make windows...otherwise i would just go back to windows
[02:50] <shiester_miester> sorry that was meant for IndyGunFreak
[02:50] <unitheory> ingo_, the access point, ie. the wireless network you connected to
[02:50] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: I don't know how to restart X.
[02:50] <alecwh> Help! For some reason, I can't access the terminal! I click on it, and it just doesn't load. It says "starting terminal" and that's it!
[02:50] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, :)
[02:51] <shiester_miester> so what kind of things were made worse in feisty?
[02:51] <cavalierprime> ctrl+backspace to restart X
[02:51] <Jordan_U> alecwh, What about an xterm?
[02:51] <alecwh> xterm?
[02:51] <astro76> cavalierprime, ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: It's possible, if you are worried, mark them for reinstallation first, then completely remove them, then install them..  Then you'll be sure the .deb files will be cached locally.  (in /var/cache/apt/yadayada.)
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester: i agree with you, canonical has more talent in their little offices, than MS has worldwide..., but still, people will always be happy w some changes, and will think they are "worse"..
[02:51] <liluo> any coders in here?
[02:51] <alecwh> I've tried restarting X server
[02:51] <cavalierprime> yeah what he said  :)
[02:51] <Jordan_U> alecwh, try running "xterm" from alt+F2
[02:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> liluo: ?
[02:51] <alecwh> I have, but I can't use the term "sudo" in there, can I?
[02:51] <alecwh> I need to alter some nvidia-settings
 yes the ap is ok - first my wifi worked without problems after installation - after i typed in my default-key, it doesn't resolve any adress
[02:51] <alecwh> with root
 coder ie programmer
[02:52] <Jordan_U> alecwh, You can use sudo from any terminal
[02:52] <alecwh> I only have one
[02:52] <alecwh> where?
[02:52] <shiester_miester> IndyGunFreak, i was referring to more objective measures of things being worse than just a person's preferences.  like for example, a particular functionality being broken/bug-ridden etc
[02:52] <Jordan_U> alecwh, Though you should be using gksudo for GUI applications
[02:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> liluo: well I'm not an IE programmer, I think you'll find few of them here. :)
[02:52] <unagi> how do i revert the title bar at the top of the screen to the way it is when u install ubuntu?
[02:52] <shiester_miester> IndyGunFreak, obviously there will be trade-offs in some departments
[02:52] <Jordan_U> alecwh, try running "xterm" from alt+F2
[02:52] <cavalierprime> drag it to the top
[02:52] <alecwh>  ok.
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester: yeah, like i said though, one need only look at win98 to winMe to see a upgrade gone horribly wrong.. lol
[02:53] <unagi> no i mean my icons are out of wack
[02:53] <unagi> like the network stuff
[02:53] <alecwh> Ok, I used "gksudo"
[02:53] <shiester_miester> yep
[02:53] <alecwh> and it opened it
[02:53] <alecwh> I'm going to restart
[02:53] <alecwh> one sec
[02:53] <shiester_miester> anybody got any ideas about how to debug a very stubborn network problem
[02:53] <nerdygirl_ellie> I disagree.  Microsoft has a lot of talent.  The problem is dilution.
[02:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: more information please.
[02:54] <zhimsel> i have a boot problem. ubuntu starts to boot but stops at /scripts/init-bottom and my caps-lock key starts flashing. i run the boot in verbose mode and i see that i'm getting a kernel panic. possibly relating to ext3.  i'm running feisty w/ kernel v2.6.20-16. help anyone?
[02:54] <unagi> how do you move the system tray on the bar at the top?
[02:54] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: thanks for the suggestions. I'm off to try them, and will come back when done to let you know if you are still about. (You too, Jordan_U)
[02:54] <alecwh> Ok, thanks a lot, that worked perfectly. :)
[02:55] <shiester_miester> basically, the NIC is detected fine, i can specify IP address fine, i plug in a cable and the little lights flash on both computers NICs, so its working to some degree, but it refuses to actually WORK in ubuntu, in terms of transferring data
[02:55] <alecwh> Now, how do I close a program that's running? I'm using metacity, and I have AWN up... how do I close it? (Like, cntrl alt delete in windows)
[02:55] <webmaren> !offtopic|webmaren
[02:55] <astro76> unagi, just add the stuff back with Add to panel... (Menu bar, notification area, network manager, volume, clock, quit...)
[02:55] <unagi> =(
[02:55] <astro76> unagi, right click, unlock, right click, move
[02:55] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, all the commands everyone has told me to use to check that its working have said that theres nothing wrong with it at all
[02:55] <systemd0wn> QUESTION, any ATI users here?
  any idea?
[02:55] <unagi> anyone know how to get the bar at the top back to defaults?
[02:55] <zhimsel> systemdown,i use ati
[02:55] <unitheory> ingo_, sorry, dont know
[02:56] <systemd0wn> zhimsel, happen to use dual monitors?
[02:56] <unagi> the network monitor in the add stuff isnt the same one
[02:56] <MajorPayne> Hi.  I am trying to start a browser remotely.  I type ssh -X hostname and log in.  I then type firefox at the prompt but it launches a local browser.  I know because when I type local host I get host not found but if I type in the host name in the browser I get the site I am looking for.
[02:56] <cavalierprime> systemd0wn:  I do with ATI
[02:56] <zhimsel> no. but i have tried. what's up?
[02:56] <unagi> astro76:  i just want it back the way it was =*(
[02:57] <Jordan_U> !ops

[02:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: It may be that the network card just doesn't work.  Is it a common network card?
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> what the
[02:57] <Bob_le_Pointu> Ow
[02:57] <tapas> omg
[02:57] <systemd0wn> haha
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> i hate when that happens.
[02:57] <Bob_le_Pointu> Was fun.
[02:57] <astro76> unagi, actually the network manager shows up in the notification area, so you don't need to add that
[02:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> Now we get to see the ops play whack a mole.
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> makes my head hurt.
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> nerdygirl_ellie: lol
[02:58] <systemd0wn> cavalierprime, SWEET.  would you be able to point me in the direction of a how to?  (might be asking to much, but do you use beryl?)
[02:58] <ramza3> I am trying to play wmv files but sound wont load, is there a place to find sound codecs
[02:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> ramza3: I'll get ubotu'd, but automatix is really good at that.
[02:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> !automatix
[02:59] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:59] <Jordan_U> ramza3, Do you have w32codecs installed ?
[02:59] <astro76> ramza3, you'll want to install ubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs
[02:59] <Jordan_U> nerdygirl_ellie, Maybe you should read that factoid :)
[02:59] <alecwh> !worksforme
[02:59] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> nerdygirl_ellie: lol, imprssive, you ubotu'd yourself.
[02:59] <astro76> !medibuntu | ramza3 you can get w32codecs here
[02:59] <ubotu> ramza3 you can get w32codecs here: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[02:59] <nalioth> ramza3: feisty automatically installs needed codecs
[02:59] <nalioth> nerdygirl_ellie: feisty automatically installs needed codecs
[02:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> I thought I would save y'all the trouble. ;)
[03:00] <ramza3> nalioth, so far it hasnt
[03:00] <systemd0wn> cavalierprime, SWEET.  would you be able to point me in the direction of a how to?  (might be asking to much, but do you use beryl?)
[03:00] <nalioth> nerdygirl_ellie: automatix will kill your system.
[03:00] <astro76> nalioth, true, not w32codecs though
[03:01] <nalioth> automatix is the immediate 'fix' to your perceived problem, but your system will not recover from it.
[03:01] <zhimsel> ramza3: did you try using vlc?
[03:01] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, basically, the NIC is detected fine, i can specify IP address fine, i plug in a cable and the little lights flash on both computers NICs, so its working to some degree, but it refuses to actually WORK in ubuntu, in terms of transferring data
[03:01] <cavalierprime> you might google it
[03:01] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, all the commands everyone has told me to use to check that its working have said that theres nothing wrong with it at all
[03:01] <shiester_miester> oeps
[03:01] <nalioth> astro76: only installing w32codecs won't bother Ubuntu a bit.  using automatix will.
[03:01] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, the thing is, it was previously working perfectly fine, ive had it for years
[03:01] <shiester_miester> there we go, lol
[03:01] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, Does it get dhcp?
[03:01] <shiester_miester> for some reason it wouldnt let me post until i registered my nick :/
[03:01] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, nope
[03:02] <anandanbu> Where do i get files with .deb for creating a collection to install for offline users
[03:02] <shiester_miester> it gets nothing
[03:02] <astro76> nalioth, indeed, I mean they won't be automatically offered for installation like other codecs
[03:02] <dabaR> what is that daemon restarting dir in /etc?
[03:02] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, have you tried "sudo dhclient < interface >" ?
[03:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: I got that.  I think it's a nic problem, not a networking problem.  I was hoping to be able to help, but that'll probably involve fiddling with bit I have no business in.  I am the automatix chic after all. :)
[03:02] <systemd0wn> cavalierprime, SWEET.  would you be able to point me in the direction of a how to?  (might be asking to much, but do you use beryl?)
[03:02] <nalioth> astro76: ah yes
[03:02] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, nope
[03:03] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, maybe, but it was working just fine until recently...its possible though
[03:03] <unity> thanks again Jordan_U, i successfully updated my system from my ISP's mirror
[03:03] <kbrooks> umm.
[03:03] <Jordan_U> unity, Great :)
[03:03] <shiester_miester> although i did do a few things to set up internet connection sharing just before it stopped working
[03:03] <kbrooks> ping.
[03:03] <unitheory> pong!
[03:03] <dabaR> what is that daemon restarting dir in /etc?
[03:03] <shiester_miester> except that the internet connection sharing worked for a little while, too
[03:03] <kbrooks> is there a good 3d game, other than ppracer?
[03:03] <shiester_miester> im trying to find it so i can reverse the process :P
[03:03] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: did you try the obvious, new cable, etc... brb
[03:03] <cavalierprime> systemd0wn:  I don't have a how-to, just figured it out by poking around.  I don't use beryl atm sorry
[03:03] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, nexuiz

[03:04] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, sort of like a cross between unreal tournament and quake 3, but with very nice graphics
[03:04] <systemd0wn> cavalierprime, aight, well thanks.
[03:04] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, no, i'd rather not shoot
[03:04] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, no i didnt, but if it was a bad cable the connection lights wouldnt be working, would they?
[03:04] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, whats wrong with you :P
[03:04] <unagi> network monitoring isnt in my system tray anymore
[03:04] <unagi> what happened to it =(
[03:05] <d4rkmonkey> whats a good amarok-like program for gnome?
[03:05] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, lets see, umm, nothing?
[03:05] <shiester_miester> lol i was jk
[03:06] <anandanbu> can somebody tell me where can i get files with .deb extension for creating a aptoncd DVD
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> d4rkmonkey: if you don'tw ant to sync an IPOD, Exaile
[03:06] <tonyyarusso> d4rkmonkey: banshee, quod libet, rhythmbox, exaile
[03:06] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, are you trying to rid cds?
[03:06] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, rip*
[03:06] <|c4|> could someone help me with getting libdvdcss installed on ubuntu, festy?
[03:06] <Justi2> Is there another way to install Adobe flash player other than using the firefox plugin installer?
[03:06] <Chihork> is there a configuration file I can go into to change the startup resolution of usplash?
[03:07] <shiester_miester> ah here it is
[03:07] <Taco`> can someone please tell me where session files are stored?
[03:07] <d4rkmonkey> yeah unitheory I need it to rip CDs too. I might just go back to using banshee. I really like amarok, but if it doesn't rip CDs I'm not using it
[03:07] <aztracker1> hi all, I have a new laptop I'm planning on putting Ubuntu on... is there a dev version (in line for the upcoming 7.10 release), or should I go with 7.04?
[03:07] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, nerdygirl_ellie, this is what i did just before it stopped working http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[03:07] <d4rkmonkey> I've tried exaile but I don't like it
[03:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: it's possible, Bad cables can act weird.
[03:08] <|c4|> i need help with lipdvdcss. anyone?
[03:08] <shiester_miester> but it DID work for a short while afterwards, the internet connection sharing was fully functional, then i believe i restarted and nothing network-related worked at all
[03:08] <|c4|> having trouble getting dvds to play
[03:08] <dimas__> how do i do this?  Workaround to make the Makefile use gcc-3.4
[03:08] <jamman> !dvd| |c4|
[03:08] <ubotu> |c4|: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:08] <nerdygirl_ellie> anandanbu: What you are asking for is non-trivial,  having said that, you can see where Ubuntu/Apt/Synaptic gets their deb files by looking in your /etc/apt/sources files.
[03:08] <Justi2> What is better to install from? tar.gz or .rpm
[03:09] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, If you don't know about dpkg dependencies and bug fixing you shouldn't use Gutsy ( see topic in #ubuntu+1 )
[03:09] <unitheory> Justi2, tar.gz
[03:09] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, okay thx...
[03:09] <jamman> Justi2, tar
[03:09] <Taco`> can someone please tell me where session files are stored?
[03:09] <aztracker1> from what I've read, camera and wifi support are 50/50 but most gfx stuff and suspend work w/ nvidia (proprietary) drivers..
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: well, if you're using a redhat distro, RPM
[03:10] <nerdygirl_ellie> Justi2: .deb, and if it is unavailable, .rpm and alien, or .tar.gz and chkinstall.
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> nerdygirl_ellie: .?..lol, you sure have some dangerous suggestions...lol
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> rpm and alien should be an absolute last resort.
[03:10] <dimas__> could you explain me how i do this>>>he Makefile which controls the compiling process for this driver has to be told to use gcc-3.4 instead of the default version 4.0:
[03:10] <dimas__> export CC=gcc-3.4
[03:10] <Jordan_U> Justi2, What are you trying to install ?
[03:11] <jamman> HellDragon, cool name man.
[03:11] <HellDragon> :o
[03:11] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, would you suggest 64bit, or 32bit?  I've only got 2gb ram, and mostly do web dev related stuff..
[03:11] <Justi2> jordan_u adobe flash player
[03:11] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, 32bit
[03:11] <kbrooks> Justi2, i should reiterate: .tar.gz AND checkinstall. tar -xzvf /path/to/tarball-0.0.0.tar.gz; cd /path/to/tarball-0.0.0; ./configure && make && sudo checkinstall
[03:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> dimas__: You'll need to get an old version of the c compiler gcc, and then run "export CC=gcc-3.4"  and it probably still won't work.
[03:11] <unitheory> eh.. only 2gb ram
[03:11] <Jordan_U> Justi2, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[03:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> aztracker1: 32bit.
[03:12] <jamman> aztracker1, 32
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: why are you trying to compile flash?.. its in the repos.
[03:12] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, thx.. ran 5.10-6.10 for about 9 months last year, went to win this year for work, but going to be using the laptop for play, and vmware for windows again.
[03:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> aztracker1: 64 bit needs a few more YEARS yet, on windows AND ubuntu.
[03:12] <Justi2> I couldn't find it
[03:12] <aztracker1> thx all... :)  downloading 7.04-32 now...
[03:12] <aztracker1> yeah, win64 way sucks.
[03:12] <uncle_rico> Yo, i am trying to install Counter Strike on Ubuntu but when it prompts me to load the 2nd disk i get a error message that "a application is using it and it can't unmount the disk' what is a workaround
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> nerdygirl_ellie: now that we agree with...lol.
[03:12] <Jordan_U> Justi2, Enable universe and multiverse
[03:13] <Nutubuntu> I just powered on my Feisty box and got a scare - got the busybox (?) and ash - had to power down entirely and restart, a warm boot didn't get me past it. What's that about, and how serious a problem is it?
[03:13] <Justi2> jordan_u: what should I search for in synaptic
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: flashplugin-nonfree
[03:13] <ned_> when i put a dvd in, nothing happens
[03:13] <dimas__> nerdygirl i did get the old version already, so how do i run it just typing this on the terminal?"export CC=gcc-3.4"
[03:13] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, That usually means that your root partition is incorrectly set in grub
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> !dvd | ned_
[03:14] <ubotu> ned_: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:14] <Jordan_U> Justi2, flashplugin non free
[03:14] <ned_> IndyGunFreak: i installed libdvdcss2 and libdvdread3 and it still doesn't work.
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> ned_: then you didn't do something right
[03:14] <Jordan_U> ned_, Are you using vlc or gxine ?
[03:14] <kr00lplatinum> anyone know how to get an .iso image to run on a virtual cd rom drive?
[03:14] <ned_> Jordan_U: totem afaik
[03:15] <Nutubuntu> t/y Jordan_U - can you point me to a tutorial or how-to on setting it up better? /boot, /, and /home are all on a software RAID1; so far it's booted just fine - until just now, when it sort of scared me a bit :)
[03:15] <Jordan_U> !iso | kr00lplatinum
[03:15] <ubotu> kr00lplatinum: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[03:15] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: I'm back :-) Uninstalling and reinstalling the network manager apps didn't help. But, happily, it didn't kill my connectivity, either :-)
[03:15] <Jordan_U> ned_, Totem doesn't support DVD playing
[03:15] <ned_> Jordan_U: what should i use then?
[03:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: yeah for still working, booh for not fixed.
[03:15] <vanden> Jordan_U: login/logut didn't help my nm-applet problem. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
[03:15] <Nutubuntu> Jordan_U,  in fact I imagine it has to do with grub setting up on one but not both of the mirrored disks in /boot
[03:15] <Jordan_U> ned_, I like vlc
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> vlc rox
[03:16] <ned_> Jordan_U: vlc?
[03:16] <ned_> lag...
[03:16] <kr00lplatinum> Jordan_U: what do you mean?
[03:16] <kupesoft> How do I disable avahi and prevent devices like eth0:avah from being created
[03:16] <Jordan_U> kr00lplatinum, Just mount it
[03:16] <Taco`> hahahah
[03:16] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: try... alt-f2 nm-applet --sm-disable
[03:16] <kr00lplatinum> Jordan_U: i don't know how i'm only a n00b
[03:16] <ned_> Jordan_U: well, it wasn't working before, but i gave it some time just now and it works... i think
[03:16] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: will do. Thanks
[03:17] <Jordan_U> kr00lplatinum, Look at the message from ubotu]
[03:17] <d4rkmonkey> does gtkpod sync video too?
[03:17] <ned_> Jordan_U: thanks for the tip
[03:17] <kr00lplatinum> Jordan_U: it's all grEEk to me
[03:17] <Jordan_U> ned_, np
[03:17] <Jordan_U> !iso > kr00lplatinum
[03:17] <ca1> How do you back up the songs from your ipod with rhythmbox?
[03:17] <kr00lplatinum> Jordan_U what does that mean?
[03:18] <d4rkmonkey> does anyone know if gtkpod can put video onto an iPod too?
[03:18] <Jordan_U> kr00lplatinum, Create a folder where you want it mounted, like: sudo mkdir /media/fakeCDROM
[03:18] <Spaceman3750> Hey guys, I need to know how to install a piece of software from a tar.gz package
[03:18] <ned_> d4rkmonkey: i don't know, but i'd but interested to find out too :)
[03:18] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: No detectable effect. What were you hoping it would do?
[03:18] <jamman> Spaceman3750, very cafefully.
[03:19] <Jordan_U> kr00lplatinum, Then run sudo mount -o loop < path/to/iso > < /media/fakeCDROM >
[03:19] <d4rkmonkey> ned_, I remember reading about it working but I'm not sure which version... do you know what the gtkpod-aac package is?
[03:19] <jamman> Spaceman3750, you untar it first with, "tar xvzf /path/to/tar.gz
[03:19] <jamman> "
[03:19] <Spaceman3750> Ugh...  So I'm assuming there is no single command to install?
[03:19] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: reading the man page didn't shed light on why you suggested that command.
[03:19] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, What are you trying to install?
[03:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: for me it will make my icon reappear if I kill it.
[03:19] <jamman> Spaceman3750, nope.
[03:19] <Spaceman3750> The version of Dansguardian distributed with Ubuntu CE
[03:20] <dimas__> nerdygirl_ellie i did get the old version but i dont know how to change the defoult configuration in the makefile
[03:20] <MrElendig> jamman: that won't work
[03:20] <MrElendig> you forgot the -
[03:20] <jamman> MrElendig, why?
[03:20] <Brent> Linux newbie here, with a question
[03:20] <Spaceman3750> I didn't get CE, but they distribute Dansguardian seperately as well
[03:20] <nerdygirl_ellie> it's what starts the applet in gnome.
[03:20] <jamman> MrElendig, you don't need one!
[03:20] <d4rkmonkey> !anyone | Brent
[03:20] <ubotu> Brent: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:20] <Spaceman3750> I'm a Ubuntu noob, but need to install the filter to keep my parents happy
[03:20] <Brent> Actually, I'm an IRC newbie as well
[03:20] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, Ubuntu Christian Edition uses the same repositories AFIK
[03:20] <d4rkmonkey> lol Brent, what do you need?
[03:20] <Brent> Sorry, my question is with installing Ubuntu. I've done it before.......
[03:20] <jamman> Spaceman3750, sucks for you!
[03:20] <jamman> j/k
[03:20] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, Just install dansguardian from synaptic / apt
[03:21] <Brent> Last night, I was able to get into the installation procedure, but didn't install due to something that came up before partitioning
[03:21] <Spaceman3750> OK, I have the package, can you walk me through it?
[03:21] <d4rkmonkey> Brent, do you remember what it said?
[03:21] <Spaceman3750> If you can, I would be forever grateful :P
[03:21] <Justi2> jordan_u: I tried to install flash from synaptic, but the installation is frozen
[03:21] <Brent> However, today, I can't even get to the installation procedure now. It goes through to the menu, I select to install, and after loading some stuff it gets stuck at a blank screen
[03:21] <Jordan_U> Justi2, Look at the details, it is probably prompting you for something
[03:21] <Spaceman3750> Is it availible in the software repository built into Ubuntu...
[03:21] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: is the nm-applet one of the icons availble to be added for you via add to panel? (You previously suggested add to panel, but I only have the Network Monitor under system and hardware. That one doesn't let you easily switch networks.)
[03:22] <d4rkmonkey> o_O Brent thats a really weird error... are you on the live CD now?
[03:22] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, sudo apt-get install dansguardian
[03:22] <Brent> No, I'm back on XP
[03:22] <jamman> Spaceman3750, i tried once. i gave up that one time too.
[03:22] <Justi2> jordan_u: it says "OK......."
[03:22] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, It is available in the repos
[03:22] <biotrox> jamman, why does my ubuntu resolution sometimes small, sometimes large??
[03:22] <Spaceman3750> OK, let me see if I can find it.
[03:23] <Brent> Last night it got all the way through to the Ubuntu partition routine and everything, but I stopped before partitioning
[03:23] <unagi_> can mac programs run on linux?
[03:23] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: no, for me it's the one that does the wireless network and works and all.
[03:23] <jamman> biotrox, unstable x?
[03:23] <hatter> are there numbers anywhere of how many people are using ubuntu-server edition ?
[03:23] <Jordan_U> unagi_,
[03:23] <Jordan_U> no
[03:23] <biotrox> no the x is stable
[03:23] <unagi_> not at all possible?
[03:23] <jamman> biotrox, or your mods aren't getting loaded right.
[03:23] <Spaceman3750> Do you have any idea where it would be located?
[03:23] <MrElendig> unagi_: the binaries can't
[03:23] <d4rkmonkey> Brent, I really have no idea whats up with this then... I'm not that great with Linux myself.
[03:23] <biotrox> only the resolution
[03:23] <MrElendig> but you can compile some to run on linux
[03:23] <biotrox> mods..?
[03:23] <unagi_> im more interested in running a 3D motion camera tracker program
[03:23] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: argh. that's a bit frusterating then. Oh well, thanks for the help. I think I'll try a forum post.
[03:23] <unagi_> is that possible?
[03:24] <Jordan_U> unagi_, Probably not
[03:24] <unagi_> =(
[03:24] <Justi2> jordan_u how do I end a frozen install?
[03:24] <MrElendig> unagi_: there are some written for linux
[03:24] <Brent> Hmmmmm, I can't imagine what is going on then. Also, do most people have live distros not be able to load on a laptop? My friend and I have that same problem, but it will load on our desktop
[03:24] <unagi_> i like synth eyes
[03:24] <Brent> Cause I can't even get the live distro to work
[03:24] <sgordon> dsf
[03:24] <Jordan_U> Brent, The Live CD works fine for me
[03:25] <d4rkmonkey> Brent, mine wouldn't start up on my laptop, have you tried the alternate CD?
[03:25] <unagi_> alt + click moves my windows and i dont want it to but i cant figure out how to stop it
[03:25] <Jordan_U> Brent, Have you tried the alternate install CD ?
[03:25] <Brent> Alternate CD?
[03:25] <d4rkmonkey> !alternate | Brent
[03:25] <ubotu> Brent: 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 - See also !Minimal
[03:25] <sgordon> hello
[03:25] <justin__> Im having a problem setting up my xubuntu installation to function as a file/media server and i cant seem to find any explanation exactly explaining what i need
[03:25] <shiester_miester> hey with gdesklets, how do i remove a desklet that is having errors and won't display?  i cant see it to right click and remove it :/
[03:25] <m11> brent , use alternate cd install
[03:25] <d4rkmonkey> Brent, by text or "expert" its not really true... Its really not that hard to install
[03:25] <Brent> Is it more difficult? I don't know any commands
[03:25] <Brent> oh
[03:25] <Spaceman3750> Hey Jordan, I can't find it in the repo...  Am I missing something?
[03:25] <Brent> Can I select the text based install from the regular CD menu?
[03:25] <Brent> Maybe that will work?
[03:25] <jamman> unagi, let go of the mouse?
[03:25] <jamman> if not, you have something wrong.
[03:26] <unagi_> anyone know how to change alt + click for move
[03:26] <Jordan_U> Brent, no
[03:26] <Brent> Oh, that's different?
[03:26] <Justi2> how do I stop a synaptic install
[03:26] <bruenig> Justi2, on cli, it would be ctrl + c
[03:26] <Brent> Oh, and just for the record, I don't have the CD, I have the DVD from Linux Pro magazine
[03:26] <justin__> Anyone here a server expert that could lend me a hand? I need to set up users on my server, that upon logging in to the server, they will be able to read/write their home directory as well as a second hard drive i have installed.
[03:27] <Slaj_R> Can anyone suggest the closest Linux equivalent to PalmOne or iCal?
[03:27] <Brent> sorry I forgot that detail
[03:27] <m11> brent  :)
[03:27] <nerdygirl_ellie> justin__: are the users in a specific group?
[03:27] <phructarian> hello
[03:27] <m11> dl alternate cd install brent
[03:27] <unagi_> jamman.......i want to prevent the keystroke from even occuring
[03:27] <biotrox> jamman what do you mean by mods..?
[03:27] <alecwh> I'm running Ubuntu + Compiz, and all the tops of my windows disapeared. can I fix this?
[03:27] <Brent> I'll do that. If that works, then should the DVD work?
[03:27] <justin__> nerdygirl_ellie: no not at the moment, they will be, but i need this to function locally, as well as remotely from their own linux installs
[03:27] <Spaceman3750> Hey Jordan, any ideas?
[03:27] <phructarian> I was reading on digg the other day that there's a distro called "Gobuntu" - what is this about?
[03:28] <jamman> biotrox, what video card do you use? by mods i mean modules.
[03:28] <jamman> lol people, it is sad.
[03:28] <m11> cant tell for dvd brent
[03:28] <Jordan_U> phructarian, It is Ubuntu - anything even slightly proprietary
[03:28] <biotrox> jamman, i am using RIVA TNT2 an old VGA card, i don't know if the mods aren't loaded right
[03:28] <opapo> When I use the live cd for powerpc on an iMac it won't fully load
[03:28] <jamman> im installing a windows 2003 server right now. :(
[03:28] <Brent> I do have another Ubuntu based install I could try- Ubuntu Studio
[03:28] <jamman> biotrox, well, try googlinig it.
[03:28] <Brent> And Linux Mint
[03:29] <justin__> nerdygirl_ellie: the problem is, i keep trying to set up samba, but the only way i can access the folders is by typing in smb:\\IPADDRESS and not by just going to the shared folders area
[03:29] <biotrox> jamman, tried that
[03:29] <unagi_> so no one knows how to change that =(
[03:29] <justin__> nerdygirl_ellie: and that is no good for them, since they are relative idiots lol
[03:29] <Jordan_U> Brent, How does the LiveCD fail exactly?
[03:29] <m11> brent , maybe is problem in cd iso, did u check for defects ?
[03:29] <biotrox> jamman, maybe i googled with the wrong keyword
[03:29] <jamman> biotrox, also, there should be a thing under prefrences called fonts. play around in there.
[03:29] <Nutubuntu> Can someone point me to a tutorial or how-to on setting up grub? I have /boot, /, and /home are all on a software RAID1; until today it's booted just fine - but just now, it sort of scared me a bit :) I think it's 'cause grub is only on one of the mirrored /boot pair, maybe ...
[03:29] <alejo> #UBUNTU-ES
[03:29] <dimas__> how i do this?The Makefile which controls the compiling process for this driver has to be told to use gcc-3.4 instead of the default version 4.0:
[03:29] <dimas__> export CC=gcc-3.4
[03:29] <dimas__> This sets the environment variable CC, which is used in the spac5xx Makefile to select the compiler.
[03:29] <Brent> Well, it got to the install process last night, so I assumed the disk was fine?
[03:29] <alecwh> I'm running Ubuntu + Compiz Fusion, and I just booted up, and all the tops of my windows are gone. The bar which contains the "Close" "minimize" and "Maximize" buttons is gone, completely! How do I fix this?
[03:30] <Brent> I can check it though, through the menu right?
[03:30] <jamman> mneptok, how did you do that eyes roll thingy?
[03:30] <m11> yes brent
[03:30] <Jordan_U> Brent, Yes
[03:30] <biotrox> jamman, it's not only fonts getting big, but the desktop (icon, tasbar and everything within it
[03:30] <mneptok> jamman: /me
[03:30] <justin__> alecwh: thats a known bug, the compiz site has a fix for it i believe, something about window decorators not appearing
[03:30] <Nutubuntu> alecwh,  you can maybe get answers #compiz-fusion?
[03:30] <unagi_> alecwh:  type in console compiz --replace
[03:30] <Brent> Ok, I'll try that and also try Ubuntu Studio, and I'll come back
[03:30] <jamman> cool.
[03:31] <mneptok> i most certainly am not.
[03:31] <m11> gl brent
[03:31] <biotrox> jamman, but sometimes when i turn on my ubuntu, than it will have the resolution i expected
[03:31] <Brent> thanks, I'll be back in a little while
[03:31] <biotrox> jamman but it happen once in a while..
[03:31] <nerdygirl_ellie> justin__: you're going out of my league.  for my users, (they aren't that bright either) I map network drives under windows.  "r: is R office u: is for You, s: is for stuff that goes out to all the offices.
[03:31] <biotrox> jamman | not everyday the computer has the resolution 1280x1024
[03:31] <jamman> biotrox, well, then try in a terminal "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[03:31] <unagi_> anyone know how to change the keystroke for move window?
[03:32] <nerdygirl_ellie> justin__: and i mount the shares for the other linux users .
[03:32] <biotrox> jamman | oke
[03:32] <mneptok> drive letters. how quaint.
[03:32] <nerdygirl_ellie> unagi_ are you using compiz?
[03:32] <unagi_> yes
[03:32] <nerdygirl_ellie> mneptok: and it works.
[03:32] <m11> gn all
[03:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> unagi_:  the dnome configuration app for gl desktop can change that.
[03:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> s/dnome/gnome
[03:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> unagi_: control panel ->gl desktop
[03:33] <mneptok> nerdygirl_ellie: drive letters in a Unix channel are like a redneck yessing "y'all shor got sum ree-yull nice art stuff!" in the Louvre.
[03:34] <mneptok> *yelling
[03:34] <unagi_> changes it to super + click but super + click doesnt work
[03:34] <jamman> YAY 19 more minutes till windows server 2003 is installed!
[03:34] <Nutubuntu> Okay, if nobody's up for the grub question, howzabout this: I'm getting warnings about the latest set of upgrades being NOT AUTHENTICATED, how fix that?
[03:34] <nerdygirl_ellie> mneptok: is mapping a network drive significantly different from mounting an NFS share in the eyes of the user?
[03:34] <opapo> I can't get Dapper PowerPc to work on a Mac
[03:34] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, sudo apt-get update
[03:34] <jamman> Nutubuntu, you ignore it. you need to get a key from somewhere. search ubuntu repository key in google.
[03:35] <opapo> I believe there is an X Server problem
[03:35] <unagi_> nerdygirl will you go on a date with me?
[03:35] <unagi_> :D
[03:35] <Tlink> night all
[03:35] <Nutubuntu> Jordan_U,  jamman - t/y :)
[03:35] <mneptok> nerdygirl_ellie: it's the C: and H: and Z: and stuff that make me laugh. it's all so .... declassee. ;)
[03:35] <nerdygirl_ellie> If my SO will understand. :)
[03:35] <Frogzoo> unagi_: offtopic
[03:35] <mneptok> unagi_: please stop that
[03:35] <jamman> Nutubuntu, no prob my friend.
[03:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> did I get silenced?
[03:37] <jamman> is it just me, or are lots of people quiting, little talkign?
[03:37] <Tr0gd0r> yes
[03:37] <jamman> nerdygirl_ellie, nope.
[03:37] <jamman> holy cow!
[03:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> ...emkay, whatever.
[03:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> hehe
[03:37] <Xbehave> do  beryl/compliz etc work with 2 seperate screens?
[03:38] <nerdygirl_ellie> Xbehave: yes, if you are patient, dedicated, and masochistic.
[03:38] <cavalierprime> it should because each screen is separate X environment
[03:38] <RGautier> FreeNX needs to be added to Add/Remove Applications
[03:38] <jamman> nerdygirl_ellie, you sound kind of... nerdy.
[03:38] <jamman> j/k
[03:38] <nerdygirl_ellie> cavalierprime: ignoring twinview and a bunch of other variables, yes.
[03:39] <jamman> RGautier, what is freenx?
[03:39] <CppIsWeird> I am trying to see my linux share on a windows machine. The windows machine can see the workgroup i set up, and the linux computer inside of it, but when i click that, i get "I cannot access this resource because i do not have permissions". Only thing i did was System>administration>shared folder, and share a folder, and also have checked that this computer is a wins server, what more do i need to do?
[03:39] <RGautier> The FreeNX server lets me connect with NX Client - kind of like RDP for X
[03:39] <Xbehave> nerdygirl_ellie: where does the masochism come in? i set up the xorg.conf with all the settings for 1 screen for both, glxgears can be draged across both screens, but beryl doesnt start
[03:40] <Frogzoo> CppIsWeird: you need to run 'smbpasswd' to create a samba account password
[03:40] <Jordan_U> RGautier, I don't really see much advantage to freenx over ssh -X, especially with the work it can be to set it up
[03:40] <Slyboots> Hi, Im having some issues with getting my Nvidia card installed and working in Ubuntu
[03:40] <jamman> CppIsWeird, well, is it a samba share or an nfs share?
[03:40] <streather> hey guys i need a little help getting fglrx drivers working properly with 6.10
[03:40] <Slyboots> Its quite a old card Geforce 4 MX ;) But in order to use the legacy driver I have to downgrade my kenerl
[03:40] <Slyboots> Since its only released for 2.6.20-15
[03:40] <jamman> biotrox, did that fix it?
[03:40] <Jordan_U> streather, Why are you using 6.10 ?
[03:40] <Frogzoo> !fglrx | streather
[03:40] <ubotu> streather: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> Xbehave: if you don't know where the masochism comes in, you haven't been working on it long enough yet. :)
[03:41] <Slyboots> I followed that, it does not work
[03:41] <CppIsWeird> jamman... no idea, i did things through ubuntu. so whatever ubuntu fesity does.
[03:41] <CppIsWeird> Frogzoo, i'll try that.
[03:41] <streather> because the 7.04 installation disk freaks out during boot
[03:41] <jamman> CppIsWeird, that is right.
[03:41] <Xbehave> i dunno what to do acording to me, it should work, are there any guides / torture chambers for this?
[03:42] <rustalot> how do I make a playable dvd? (and !dvd doesn't answer my question)
[03:42] <CppIsWeird> erm, its asking be for an OLD samba password... and blank did not work.
[03:42] <d4rkmonkey> !dvd rustalot
[03:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dvd rustalot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:42] <d4rkmonkey> :P
[03:42] <streather> the ubuntu version dislikes my gfx card and wont display anything and the kubuntu version refuses to boot at all >.<
[03:42] <Justi2> flash is downloading at 500 BYTES per second- something is messed up
[03:42] <d4rkmonkey> streather, install with alternate, edit xorg and install needed drivers then
[03:42] <RGautier> ssh -X ?  Is there an XWindows PuTTY client that would connect to and configure Ubuntu without my having to have installed FreeNX?
[03:43] <rustalot> I have a video file I want to /put/ on a dvd
[03:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> RGautier: I want to know too!
[03:43] <d4rkmonkey> Can anyone tell me the difference between gtkpod and gtkpod-aac?
[03:43] <CppIsWeird> excuse me, im getting this error: Could not connect to machine <IP_ADDRESS>: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
[03:43] <cavalierprime> justi2: to get my flash player 9 I had to d/l it from another comp and then install it from CD because mine did the same thing
[03:43] <Jordan_U> RGautier, There is X for cygwin
[03:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> Jordan_U: that is a lot more work on the client than running the FreeNx app.
[03:44] <puller> hey, i am having trouble installing flock on ubuntu, i followed a how to and it didnt work....
[03:44] <streather> i think i know my current problem just need some help resolving it
[03:44] <Justi2> cavalierprime: how do I get the linux version- the only other comps I have are windows
[03:44] <cavalierprime> d/l the linux version from adobe, just search it on the web site
[03:44] <Jordan_U> nerdygirl_ellie, I know, I didn't realize that he wasn't connecting from a *NIX box
[03:44] <Romeo5k> QUESTION: what is the lightest gui (OS) i can use on fiesty server.. Ive been trying CmL for 3 days, and cant get FTP to werk.. and im upset now...
[03:45] <jamman> Romeo5k, NONE!
[03:45] <Romeo5k> :O
[03:45] <HHP2K> Hello everyone!
[03:45] <RGautier> cygwin is a pain to keep up to date
[03:45] <jamman> Romeo5k, if you must use one, use x
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> Romeo5k: do you want to ftp from the box or to the box?
[03:45] <Jordan_U> Romeo5k, Strait X is the lightest you can run
[03:45] <HHP2K> I have a rather urgent problem to ask you guys about.
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> !ask
[03:45] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> :D
[03:45] <RGautier> FreeNX also has compression protocols that make it nice over WAN
[03:45] <Romeo5k> PROPER NAME : strait X?
[03:45] <d4rkmonkey> !gtkpod
[03:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtkpod - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> X is awful over a wan.

[03:45] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[03:46] <Jordan_U> Romeo5k, Don't install any window manager and just use X
[03:46] <d4rkmonkey> !rockbox
[03:46] <ubotu> rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for audio players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio. See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started!
[03:46] <RGautier> FreeNX works good over the WAN..
[03:46] <Romeo5k> is this X --> http://xwinman.org/screenshots/fluxbox-jef.jpg
[03:46] <Jordan_U> Romeo5k, No, that is fluxbox
[03:46] <sdouble> anyone know how to connect to a remote vnc server with vncviewer on a specified port?
[03:47] <Nutubuntu> I sync my Palm device to j-pilot ... it's suddenly quit working; /dev/ttyUSB1 no longer seems to exist. Now ... how do I start on this one? Google tells me zippola ...
[03:47] <Romeo5k> Jordan_U can u link me to X pls?
[03:47] <nerdygirl_ellie> Romeo5k: do you want to run an ftp client on the box or an ftp server?
[03:47] <Slyboots> "ERROR. idaho45 -> Kernel module load error: insmod: error inserting './usr/src/nv/nvidia.ko':
[03:47] <Slyboots>    -1 Invalid module format
[03:47] <Romeo5k> nerdygirl_ellie i wanna run FTP server
[03:47] <Slyboots> Whats what I get when I try to build the Nvidia drivers from the offical release
[03:47] <eubey> if i wanted to make my own customized debian distro, where would i go to start?
[03:48] <Romeo5k> nerdygirl_ellie i installed proftpd but cant figure out everything
[03:48] <jamman> Romeo5k, try "sudo apt-get install proftpd"
[03:48] <jamman> Romeo5k, what do you want?
[03:48] <unagi_> so it is in no way possible to use a mac program on linux
[03:48] <FruitLoop> Help me! I found a howto the other day explaining how to install Ubuntu through a net-boot method, using a separate machine to "serve" the install files to the target computer through the ethernet.., but today I seem to have gone browser blind or stupid cos I can't find it. Anyone know the link I am thinking of any similar page?
[03:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble: one sec.
[03:48] <Romeo5k> jamman: how to add users and create folders... its online and everything for www
[03:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble: is the port number > 5500?
[03:48] <HHP2K> I tried to follow some directions to enable a five-button mouse, and it included editing the xorg.conf file. When I restarted the computer, it showed that it can't start the X server because of an error in the xorg.conf file, regarding the mouse changes. It disables  the X server and brings me to a terminal-like black page. But, I can't do anything on it. I'm running ubuntu off the CD right now, but I need to know how to revert the xo
[03:48] <Romeo5k> jamman: i can connect to it from ftp client
[03:48] <sdouble> i'm gong through man vncviewer, but I haven't seen anything yet
[03:49] <jamman> Romeo5k, inside or outside your local network?
[03:49] <Romeo5k> jamman: i can outside
[03:49] <Frogzoo> FruitLoop: you do know about firefox's bookmarks?
[03:49] <spinexorz> i just did a dist-upgrade and now ubuntu-desktop complains about unconfigured packages, i odnt know what to do i tried to reinstall them and apt-get leaves them unconfigured, what do i do?
[03:49] <sdouble> nerdygirl_ellie: I set the port to a custom port on the server because I want to be able to access all of my computers from outside the network
[03:49] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble:  it's vncviewer ip.ad.dr.ess:nnnn  where nnnn is the port number - 5500.
[03:49] <Romeo5k> jamman: i can give u IP.. and usrname and pswrd
[03:49] <jamman> Romeo5k, but not inside?
[03:49] <Romeo5k> jamman: i can inside too
[03:50] <sdouble> hmmm, I tried that.  and in man, it says ip:display
[03:50] <jamman> So whats wrong then Romeo5k?
[03:50] <unagi_> so it is in no way possible to use a mac program on linux
[03:50] <Jordan_U> Romeo5k, This is sort of an example, there isn't much to see other than the windows themselves http://bioinfo.hku.hk/MouseAtlas/Introduction/MouseAtlas_intro/cygxf3.jpg
[03:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble:  if it's listening on port 5540, then it would be x.x.x.x:40
[03:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble: kind of silly to do it that way, but I didn't write the software.
[03:50] <Romeo5k> jamman: how to create 3 users.. and each one have their sepearate home folder.. what i plan on doing is running a TBdev on it
[03:50] <Jordan_U> unagi_, Not possible, they use libraries that don't exist for Linux
[03:50] <Romeo5k> jamman: im desiging my own
[03:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> what's tbdev?
[03:50] <Romeo5k> jamman: and i wanna use this as a test
[03:51] <sdouble> yeah, that is kind of silly.  I'll try that out.  Thanks.
[03:51] <Frogzoo> FruitLoop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot & https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet
[03:51] <unagi_> Jordan_U:  do you know of any 3d tracking software for linux?
[03:51] <spinexorz> i just did a dist-upgrade and now ubuntu-desktop complains about unconfigured packages, i odnt know what to do i tried to reinstall them and apt-get leaves them unconfigured, what do i do?
[03:51] <Jordan_U> unagi_, Not off hand, doesn't mean there isn't any
[03:51] <jamman> Romeo5k, ok, use the "sudo adduser --home /place/to/dir"
[03:51] <Romeo5k> nerdygirl_ellie: tbdev = php already prewritten for a site
[03:51] <jamman> Romeo5k, ok, use the "sudo adduser --home /place/to/dir name_of_user"
[03:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> neat.
[03:52] <jamman> sorry, Romeo5k, use the second one.
[03:52] <Romeo5k> jamman: kk
[03:52] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Were you trying to upgrade to a different version of Ubuntu?
[03:52] <jamman> Romeo5k, that'll do you in nicely...
[03:52] <FruitLoop> Frogzoo: thanks.. thats the one I lost.
[03:52] <spinexorz> yes from dapper to edgy
[03:52] <sdouble> works great.  thanks for the help nerdygirl_ellie
[03:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> yeah!
[03:53] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, seding your sources.list and dist-upgrading is *not* the correct way to upgrade
[03:53] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | spinexorz
[03:53] <ubotu> spinexorz: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:53] <happyface> how can I disable the ESD sound daemon?
[03:54] <morozco> que hubo pues, como est[an todos

[03:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> hola morozco.
[03:54] <morozco> Holaaaa
[03:54] <augusto> duvidas no iptables
[03:54] <spinexorz> then why is there a feature for it?

[03:54] <sdouble> oops
[03:54] <sdouble> morozco: #ubuntu-es para espanol
[03:54] <spinexorz> i got rid of all the custom entries in sources.list and dist-upgraded
[03:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> morozco: Nashville, Tennessee, Centennial hospital
[03:55] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, What do you mean why is there a feature for it?
[03:55] <jamman> morozco, quiero a hablar con tu en espanol.
[03:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> gracias sdouble.
[03:55] <sdouble> de nada
[03:55] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, i mean update-manager -c
[03:55] <nick0> hola gente
[03:56] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, That is the correct way to upgrade, is that what you did?
[03:56] <spinexorz> yes
[03:56] <nerdygirl_ellie> ... which would be a neat trick on a laptop.
[03:56] <sdouble> though that was about the extent of my spanish  =P
[03:56] <morozco> listo
[03:56] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Nvm then :)

[03:56] <nick0> does anyone know how to configure th fn key on a vaio???
[03:56] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, now ubuntu-desktop wont install
[03:56] <morozco> ok jaman
[03:56] <morozco> yo hablo espanol
[03:56] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Can you pastebin the error it gives?
[03:56] <bill__> anybody have any ideas on How i can get a DNs server started on my Ubuntu Fiesty
[03:56] <nick0> does anyone know how to configure th fn key on a vaio???
[03:57] <nick0> on ubuntu feisty fawn
[03:57] <eubey> how do i tell if i have the madwifi ng drivers installed?
[03:57] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, as long as it works with elinks
[03:57] <spinexorz> lol
[03:57] <jamman> morozco, mi tambien, pero, yo no bueno a hablar espanol. yo hablo una ano.
[03:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> nick0: configure it to do what?
[03:57] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, brb
 on ubuntu feisty fawn was that ment for me?
[03:57] <nick0> nerdygirl_ellie: brightness, sound, etc
[03:57] <nick0> u kno the normal functions
[03:57] <shiester_miester> which in your opinions is better: inkscape or adobe illustrator (assuming one has both)?
[03:57] <nick0> i already tried with fnfx but that didnt do it
[03:58] <nerdygirl_ellie> nick0: it should work for display brightness automagically.
[03:58] <Mac120> hows everyone
[03:58] <morozco> no te preocupes jaman
[03:58] <nick0> well the fn key is dead
[03:58] <sdouble> shiester_miester: illustrator unfortunately.  =/
[03:58] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, preety much it complains about some packages specifically acpid wich is needed for ubuntu-desktop
[03:58] <nerdygirl_ellie> inkscape isn't there yet.
[03:58] <sdouble> Though inkscape is nice.
[03:58] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[03:58] <RickH> Mac120:  Working in the coal mine (whoop!) I get along now... :)
[03:58] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, Try xara extreme
[03:58] <shiester_miester> can inkscape edit .ai files?
[03:58] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it says the dependencies are there but unconfigured
[03:59] <bill__> or is having a dns server on Ubuntu bad
[03:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: yes, but you'll get wierdness if you try to switch back and forth.
[03:59] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, What about when you run: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[03:59] <sdouble> xara xtreme is closer, but I still prefer illustrator.  I was unable to try Skencil because it requires an older python
[03:59] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: why would you think having a dns server on ubuntu is bad?
[03:59] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, i tried dpkg-reconfigure... no cigar
[03:59] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, oh ok...damn
[03:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: I have several ubuntu dns servers...
[03:59] <fiXXXerMet> What is the serial port in ubuntu? (/dev/xxx)
[03:59] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, let me see
[03:59] <Spaceman3750> Hey guys, I just installed Ubuntu, but my USB headset neither has sound nor records...  any ideas?
[03:59] <bill__> Iam just having trouble setting one up
[03:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: How can I help
[03:59] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, how about xara?  can that edit .ai files acceptably?
[03:59] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: bind9?
[03:59] <bill__> Let me get ya error
[03:59] <Spaceman3750> BTW - Jordan, thanks for your help...  I extracted the tarball and it had an automatic installer for me
[03:59] <bill__> yea bind 9
[03:59] <RickH> Spaceman3750:  Is your headset broken? :P
[03:59] <Pelo> Spaceman3750, look up your model and number in the forum
[03:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: dunno.
[03:59] <Spaceman3750> No
[03:59] <bill__> It says C compiler cant make executables
[03:59] <Spaceman3750> It works in Windows
[04:00] <shiester_miester> dammit...xara is commercial software
[04:00] <nick0> anyone kno how to configure the fn key to work?
[04:00] <Spaceman3750> But not in Ubuntu
[04:00] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: what's the trouble?
[04:00] <bill__> Bind9
[04:00] <Pelo> Spaceman3750, look up your model and number in the forum
[04:00] <KI4IKL> I have a NVIDIA GeForce 6150...how can I make sure the drivers are working correctly?
[04:00] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: Your installing from source instead of package?
[04:00] <bill__> says when compiling C compiler cant make executables
[04:00] <shiester_miester> inkscape it is :(
[04:00] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, no output whatsoever
[04:00] <bill__> Wait theres a package?
[04:00] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: thou shalt not compile from source.    If your going command line use aptitude
[04:01] <Pelo> !es | nick0
[04:01] <ubotu> nick0: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:01] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, its pretty much impossible to make it physically impossible to recover any data from a disk
[04:01] <cotyrothery> Please i really need to know what programe or what to do to make it so i can reinstall windows without it freaking out
[04:01] <spinexorz> nick0, cual es el problema?
[04:01] <Spaceman3750> Pelo, don't know my model number
[04:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> nick0: sorry I can't help, it's always just worked for me.
[04:01] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, you're going to have to settle for "good enough"
[04:01] <nick0> Pelo: basically im trying to configure the fn functions on this vaio fs920
[04:01] <Slyboots> Look, I cant get these nvidia drivers to work
[04:01] <Pelo> Spaceman3750, read it from the lable
[04:01] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:01] <nick0> Pelo: basically im trying to configure the fn functions on this vaio fs920
[04:02] <RickH> I don't understand why we have such a time with Nvidia drivers.
[04:02] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, it really depends on how well you want to hide the data
[04:02] <Nutubuntu> Is there a way to issue a pair of 'sudo modprobe' commands each time I restart?
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:02] <TheNo1Yeti> ./quit
[04:02] <bill__> AH
[04:02] <Slyboots> X crashes with a "sh" /sbin/lrm-video: not found, FATAL: error running install command for nvidia"
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> No, not dot
[04:02] <bill__> :D
[04:02] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: I want it gone as much as i can possibley get rid of it
[04:02] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, It would help to have the full output, can you run: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop tee output.txt
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:02] <Pelo> nick0, I have no clue,  maybe you can do someting with menu > system > prefs > keybaord shortcuts
[04:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: grinding the disk to powder works.... and melting.  Other than that, it might come back.
[04:02] <Spaceman3750> Pelo, it doesn't have one, it was originally designed to use for SOCOM with PS2.  It has SOCOM branding instead of the Logitech info
[04:02] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, formatting will get rid of it
[04:02] <bill__> Ok installed
[04:02] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, thats what i said earlier :P
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:02] <nick0> Pelo: nah, that didnt work :S its drivin me crazy
[04:03] <nerdygirl_ellie> mod, please?
[04:03] <asc> cotyrothery: There's a program called 'wipe' which is probably the closest you can get in software, short of Eraser. 'sudo wipe -rq /dev/disk' will overwrite it four times with random data.
[04:03] <bill__> And service started
[04:03] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: No because i have done that and when i try to reinstall windows at the end it says can not create user partion
[04:03] <Pelo> Spaceman3750, then try a forum search for  usb headset , that might turn up something
[04:03] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, it won't make it untraceable, but as far as the computer knows, it wasn't there.  just format the partitions, delete them and reformat the free space as new partitions for something else
[04:03] <cotyrothery> someone tolled me to do a low input output formate
[04:03] <bill__> Now i just need to find it
[04:03] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, you dont need to do that
[04:03] <Spaceman3750> K, thanks Pelo :)
[04:03] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: /etc/bind
[04:03] <Pelo> nick0,  that was my best shot,
[04:03] <asc> cotyrothy: If you're really determined to get rid of it, shredding and melting down the disk is a good idea. Not quite sure where you'd get the facilities for that though.
[04:03] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, if the partitions arent in the partition table then windows wont even see them
[04:03] <fiXXXerMet> What is the serial port in ubuntu? (/dev/xxx)
[04:03] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: i have formated this one drive 10 times in a row
[04:03] <Justi2> is it just me, or do adobe servers suck?
[04:04] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, formatting a partition is not the same as removing it from the partition table
[04:04] <bill__> Awesomes ness
[04:04] <nick0> Pelo: its all good bud
[04:04] <Pelo> fiXXXerMet,   dev/tty....
[04:04] <nick0> Pelo: danke anyway
[04:04] <Nutubuntu> cotyrothery, one possibility would be to zero out Track 0 using one of the utils found on Ultimate Boot Disk ... that might resolve the problem with a partition table that just doesn't seem to go away
[04:04] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: are you trying to hide evidence of porn or terrorism?  for porn, formatting should be fine.  for terrorism, smash the drive to bits with a sledgehammer.
[04:04] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: ok how do i remove it from the partion table
[04:04] <unagi_> how do you compile binaries?
[04:04] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, use some partitioning software and just delete it completely
[04:04] <nerdygirl_ellie> !compile
[04:04] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[04:04] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, how to do that specifically depends on the software
[04:04] <regfire> !compile
[04:04] <bill__> Ok would anybody mind helping me Config it In PM there is too many people talking here
[04:05] <fiXXXerMet> /dev/tty ?
[04:05] <cotyrothery> No i just need to get rid of linux partions because windows acts funny when trying to install it
[04:05] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, the partition editor in the ubuntu live cd should be able to do it for you
[04:05] <Pelo> bill__,  config what exactly ?
[04:05] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Then you can copy over output.txt to another computer
[04:05] <unagi_> bill__: its not hard to talk in here
[04:05] <bill__> to use the domain xitz.net
[04:05] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, dont format them, tell it to delete/remove the partitions altogether
[04:05] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: ok how let me open it real quick
[04:05] <Spaceman3750> Pelo, thanks for the help, just a misconfiguration...  It works good now :D
[04:05] <TheCreationist> I'm trying to delete files from my MP3 player (tried to do so in Amarok, Terminal, and File Browser), but it says it's a read-only file system.  I've tried using sudo rm -r... no luck.    After modding a PC help forum for over a year, I should know that :P
[04:06] <nick0> Pelo: whats the name of the spanish support channel??
[04:06] <bill__> well brb
[04:06] <Pelo> !ex | nick0
[04:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ex - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:06] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, yep, get rid of them altogether.  I'm assuming you arent actually USING that partition for anything?
[04:06] <nerdygirl_ellie> !es
[04:06] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:06] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: no its my second drive and i want windows on it
[04:06] <Jordan_U> spinexorz,  Actually the command would be "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | tee output.txt" ( forgot the pipe )
[04:06] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, for example, running an ubuntu install off of it that you are using right now
[04:06] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: should i use fdisk?
[04:07] <xtknight> im told to place a file in /etc/hotplug/ ("Copy this to /etc/hotplug/usb/Argyll.usermap")...where is this on ubuntu feisty?  it has /etc/hotplug.d/
[04:07] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, it doesnt really matter, anything that gets rid of partitions will do the job.  the linux one or fdisk should acheive the same results, afaik
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> If I were deleting partitions on my second hard drive, I would sudo fdisk /dev/sdb and use m for help, probably d for delete, and then w to save the changes.
[04:07] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: so let me get this straight all i do is delete it completely nothing else?
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> In windows I would use fdisk and 3 to delete partitions, then 4 to remove non-dos partitions.
[04:08] <nerdygirl_ellie> ... and yes, sometimes it is all about me. :D
[04:08] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, if its gone, its gone.  the computer will consider it as free, unpartitioned space
[04:08] <shiester_miester> if its not in the partition table, that is
[04:08] <cotyrothery> ok
[04:08] <phatcat> anyone here mess with software raid via mdadm?
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> Is there a way to issue a pair of 'sudo modprobe' commands each time I restart the computer? (sudo modprobe visor && sudo modprobe usbserial)
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  yes
[04:08] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: how do i delete it out of the partion table
[04:08] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, and then you can boot up the windows cd and you should be able to create partitions all you want
[04:08] <phatcat> could you give me a quick overview of hte process?
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> gtg in a couple of minutes, phatcat, but what do you want to know?
[04:08] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, if you removed the partition then its not in the partition table
[04:09] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: ok and im using a recovery cd
[04:09] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, did it disappear and get replaced by "free space" or something?
[04:09] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: its a pack of 8
[04:09] <phatcat> does mdadm require formatted partitions before you create a raidset
[04:09] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it doenst get the full output
[04:09] <fiXXXerMet> How do I find out which tty my serial connection is on?
[04:09] <Nutubuntu> phatcat, I'm no expert :(    I can tell you how I set it up, if that helps, but it's probably not the only way to go
[04:09] <bill__> Anybody familiar with BIND mind helping me
[04:09] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: i haven't done it yet but im about to
[04:09] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, brb im gonna do this over SSH from a laptop
[04:09] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[04:09] <bill__> Getting it to work with my domain
[04:09] <andre_> I am new to linux. I need a little help. I try to execute a program in the terminal using the "./example" but, I get permission denied. What am I doing wrong?
[04:09] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Ok
[04:10] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  now that I think for a second, no, you create the RAID then you format
[04:10] <Spaceman3750> Anybody know of any remote access software that I can run on Windows and have access to my Ubuntu box?
[04:10] <Spaceman3750> Namely over the internet
[04:10] <asc> andre_: Try using 'sh ./example'. If that doesn't work, 'sudo ./example' should.
[04:10] <nerdygirl_ellie> Nutubuntu: Hi.  In Ubuntu, you can set something to automatically modprobe by creating an entry for it in /etc/modprobe.d.
[04:10] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, i think the reason u were confused is because you were thinking that if there is data there then the computer can't write to it.  that's not true...the partition table is used to tell it which areas of the disk are being used or not.  if an area isn't in the partition table then as far as the computer knows, it can put whatever it wants there
[04:10] <phatcat> have you had trouble with it?  (as in, mdadm finds more raidsets than you created on reboot)?
[04:10] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: the only reason i want windows is for wow
[04:10] <regfire> ah
[04:10] <Nutubuntu> nerdygirl_ellie,  thank you everso :)
[04:11] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  no
[04:11] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, you can play wow in wine though
[04:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: Do you want a console or a gui?
[04:11] <Spaceman3750> GUI
[04:11] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: yea but i only get 2 fps
[04:11] <tofaffy> ahh...beryl is a bit odd ...I hover over a window in the window pane...it sorta highlights it and sorta doesn't...any ideas?
[04:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Nutubuntu: sometimes just running sudo depmod -a will make it "just work"  Ymmv on that.
[04:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: there are a few options.
[04:11] <asc> andre: Or try 'chmod +x example' (to make it executable) then './example'... hmm.
[04:11] <Nutubuntu> t/y again :) nerdygirl_ellie
[04:11] <Spaceman3750> Any free?
[04:11] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, have you tried messing with your graphics drivers, or wine settings? or asking the guys in #winehq?
[04:11] <phatcat> Butubuntu: what version of buntu did you use when you ran it?
[04:11] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  gtg ... will be back later tonight, though
[04:11] <phatcat> sorry, nutbuntu
[04:12] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  I was using Feisty
[04:12] <phatcat> thanks
[04:12] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: well i have done what the ubuntu community guide has said and it does not help
[04:12] <TheCreationist> I'm trying to delete files from my MP3 player (tried to do so in Amarok, Terminal, and File Browser), but it says it's a read-only file system.  I've tried using sudo rm -r... no luck.  Any ideas?
[04:12] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, world of warcraft has gold status in wine, meaning it should work perfectly
[04:12] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: well it goes really slow
[04:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: Yes.  FreeNx works really well.  And so does VNC.  I haven't configured either on Ubuntu, but I know they work.
[04:12] <shiester_miester> hmm ok
[04:12] <phatcat> anyone else use mdadm + sw raid?
[04:12] <regfire> coty http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine is a great reference for wow in wine
[04:12] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: Hey what if i took all the dll from my windows cd and put them in wine
[04:12] <cotyrothery> would that owrk
[04:12] <cotyrothery> work
[04:13] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, if it didn't have the dlls that it needed then it wouldnt work
[04:13] <Spaceman3750> nerdygirl_ellie: Great, thanks a lot.  I will give those a try :D.
[04:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: and if you are connecting from a linux box, you can export an X session across ssh... but I can't help you with that one either. :)
[04:13] <Spaceman3750> Naah, the other will be WinVista
[04:13] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: no would putting all the windows dlls in wine make it work better
[04:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: FreeNX is probably the best of what I've used.
[04:13] <asc> TheCreationist: It means that you can't write to the filesystem. This can be because it was mounted read-only at boot, or because there were errors which caused it to be remounted read-only after boot. Have you ever been able to modify files on that filesystem>
[04:13] <Spaceman3750> Great, thanks :D
[04:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: Good luck.
[04:13] <Jordan_U> cotyrothery, I have heard that that works in some instances where the wine dlls are incomplete but can actually be worse for some dll's
[04:14] <Spaceman3750> Thanks, I need it.  New to Ubuntu :P
[04:14] <gcarrillo> hi all
[04:14] <asc> Spaceman3750: You can also do it in windows using cywgin... but it's very very slow.
[04:14] <asc> (exporting an X session I mean)
[04:14] <cotyrothery> Jordan_U: so would putting every known windows dll in wine fix my problem
[04:14] <gcarrillo> how do you get native resolution in a virtual terminal with a widescreen monitor?
[04:14] <Spaceman3750> If I can't use the other, I will give that a try
[04:14] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. Any idea?
[04:14] <Jordan_U> cotyrothery, I doubt it
[04:14] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: no
[04:15] <cotyrothery> man i just want to play wow so bad
[04:15] <gcarrillo> haha
[04:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: is it just slow?  If so, do you have 3d accelerated video in linux?
[04:15] <Fezzler> Does anyone know the command line instruction to check that I have the right FLashplayer installed for Firefox
[04:15] <Jordan_U> cotyrothery, WoW is supposed to run great in wine
[04:15] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/d1f0fdae
[04:15] <cotyrothery> I have 3D acc.
[04:15] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, there
[04:15] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: You have two ways of doing this.  The way that will teach you something about windows or the easy way that will cost you $5
[04:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> dpkg -l flash-nonfree
[04:16] <nerdygirl_ellie> Fezzler: dpkg -l flash-nonfree
[04:16] <cotyrothery> TheNo1Yeti: 5$ as in cedega?
[04:16] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: Yea
[04:16] <cotyrothery> no room on credit card
[04:16] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, i dont why there should be dependency issues
[04:16] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: I set mine up in wine the first time, figured out how to do it and didn't want to deal with the headache the second time.  So I used cedega (which is just a smart ui for wine)
[04:16] <Fezzler> Is that true if I installed Flash from Adobe site too?
[04:17] <cotyrothery> TheNo1Yeti:  how well does it work?
[04:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> Wow on linux in 3 steps.  1.  Get 3d graphics working on linux.  You should be able to play tuxracer at 30fps or more.  2. enable the wine repo in your sources list and update.  3.  run wine wow.exe
[04:17] <mcfisherprice> !smartphone
[04:17] <ubotu> A guide to syncing smartphones can be found here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=86302
[04:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> Fezzler: no, that installs a different way.
[04:17] <cotyrothery> nerdygirl_ellie: I have done that even set it to openGL
[04:18] <cotyrothery> i have an 1810 gfx card
[04:18] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: Works great.  Haven't had an issue since.  But honestly it is worth it to learn how to set it up with wine imo.  And for your dll question you only technically need like 1 dll I think
[04:18] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, What happens if you run: sudo apt-get -f install
[04:18] <cotyrothery> i mean i810 gfx card
[04:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: can you run tuxracer at a decent clip?
[04:18] <TheNo1Yeti> !tripwire
[04:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tripwire - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:18] <cotyrothery> nerdygirl_ellie: haven't tried
[04:18] <Fezzler> Well, I installed from adobe site.  Can someone walk we through from scratch
[04:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: try it, we'll wait. :0
[04:18] <TheCreationist> asc: I don't recall if I've ever edited the filesystem since installing Feisty.  In fact, I don't think I did.  I was able to add songs TO the player, but can't remove them.
[04:19] <asc> cotyrothery: I also have an i810. I think that WoW might be somewhat outside its' capabilities.
[04:19] <shiester_miester> what the hell is that :/
[04:19] <shiester_miester> netsplit?
[04:19] <TheCreationist> shiester_miester: Netsplit.
[04:19] <d4rkmonkey> !ipod

[04:19] <cotyrothery> nerdygirl_ellie: well im installing ubuntu right now so let me finish that first
[04:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> hehe.
[04:19] <TheCreationist> shiester_miester: One of the servers went down.
[04:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> what's a netsplit?
[04:19] <kitche> shiester_miester: they are doing maintence
[04:19] <asc> TheCreationist: Is it FAT or NTFS by any chance?
[04:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> oh, neat.
[04:19] <cotyrothery> asc: no it runs great on my freinds who has windows
[04:19] <TheCreationist> asc: I believe it's a FAT system.
[04:19] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, netsplit, afaik, is when 2 irc servers lose connection between each other
[04:20] <bruenig> !netsplit
[04:20] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[04:20] <cotyrothery> asc: and he has a i810
[04:20] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: it is "one of the most tested wine apps, ever" :)
[04:20] <asc> cotyrothery: I stand corrected but skeptical.
[04:20] <Fezzler> Do people here have Flash running fine under 7.04?
[04:20] <nivekc1> im having trouble installing google earth im following the directions and it says to change to the directory where it and it is on the desktop so that should be default command location right? run the chmod command and i did that but it says that the googleearthlinux.bin does not exist? im so lost lol.

[04:20] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:20] <Fezzler> I can't get Youtube clips to play.  Says I either don't have FLash or Java
[04:20] <cotyrothery> asc: plus i have a 2.20 ghz processor
[04:20] <TheCreationist> Fezzler: Without a problem, yes.
[04:20] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, pretty much the same output
[04:20] <bruenig> Fezzler, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree (if it crashes your browser often, then you know it is working)
[04:20] <cotyrothery> asc: and 1 gb of ram
[04:20] <cotyrothery> asc: so it should even out
[04:20] <Belboz99> hey, I'm still having issues with nvidia kernel module:
[04:20] <Belboz99> dan@htpc:/lib/linux-restricted-modules$ sudo modprobe nvidia
[04:20] <Belboz99> FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
[04:20] <asc> cotyrothery: I have 2.4 and 768 but I can barely run halo.
[04:20] <KI4IKL> for some reason, every once in a while, my mou8se locks up. What can I do to fix this?
[04:20] <TheNo1Yeti> lol @ bruenig
[04:21] <nerdygirl_ellie> Fezzler: yes, you can get it from the commercial repo and then apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ... yes, what they said.
[04:21] <asc> TheCreationist: Okay, we can probably fix that. Just a second.
[04:21] <kbrooks> how do i mount/scan for NFS hosts?
[04:21] <cotyrothery> asc: my freinds preccesor is 666 mhz
[04:21] <sandeep> my relteck ac97 soundcard not detected
[04:21] <bruenig> flashplugin-nonfree is in multiverse not the commercial repo
[04:21] <kbrooks> how do i mount/scan for NFS hosts?
[04:21] <kbrooks> how do i mount/scan for NFS hosts?
[04:21] <kbrooks> !nfs
[04:21] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[04:21] <nerdygirl_ellie> sorry about that.
[04:21] <cotyrothery> asc: and he only has 512 mb of ram
[04:21] <TheCreationist> !repeat | kbrooks
[04:21] <ubotu> kbrooks: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[04:21] <asc> cotyrothery: Maybe WoW has much lower system requirements than I thought it would.
[04:22] <cotyrothery> asc: no it tells him that his system requirements are low
[04:22] <TheCreationist> cotyrothery, asc - I can't play ANY of my games under Linux because they all use DirectX... grr.
[04:22] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, what about: sudo apt-get install powermanagement-interface
[04:22] <Fezzler> Okay, "apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" tells me I have the lastest installed.  Step 1.  Step 2. How can I tell if I have Java or the right one?
[04:22] <cotyrothery> asc: but it runs at 20 fps on his computere
[04:22] <nerdygirl_ellie> em.. I don't think so.  Wow is clunky at 512 for me.  maybe if the server isn't busy, but I can't imagine it in a 30 man.
[04:22] <bill__> WOW i cant edit any of the Files
[04:22] <bill__> :(
[04:22] <cotyrothery> TheCreationist: None of them use openGL
[04:22] <TheCreationist> Fezzler: To test my flash, I always just go to www.ebaumsworld.com and try to watch a video.
[04:23] <asc> TheCreationist: Uh, let's see. Do 'sudo gedit /etc/fstab' in a terminal. Then we need to find the line for the FAT filesystem. Should have the word 'vfat' in it.
[04:23] <sandeep> my ac97 soundcard not working
[04:23] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. Any idea?
[04:23] <bruenig> !samba
[04:23] <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
[04:23] <TheNo1Yeti> herdygirl: I tend to run between 5-20fps on a 2.4 with 512 ram & 256 ram on graphics card.  Only thing I can't figure out is how to up the resolution beyond 800x600.
[04:23] <TheCreationist> asc: Okay, my mp3 player isn't listed in fstab
[04:24] <RickH> I was just able to get my Nvidia drivers loaded.
[04:24] <nerdygirl_ellie> I'm leaving, time for more hydromorphone.  night all.
[04:24] <asc> TheCreationist: That's okay, we're looking for the filesystem.
[04:24] <bruenig> TheCreationist, it shouldn't be
[04:24] <cotyrothery> nerdygirl_ellie: im about to restart with a fresh install of ubuntu
[04:24] <RickH> Had to issue "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" in order to install properly.
[04:24] <asc> TheCreationist: Oh, wait. You're talking about an external mp3 mplayer aren't you.
[04:24] <Fezzler> Creation:  Even that site says I need Flash.  But we established I have FLash.
[04:24] <cotyrothery> You'll have to tell me what the app is again
[04:24] <Fezzler> ??? Java ???
[04:24] <TheCreationist> asc: Yes :)
[04:24] <RickH> Used the actual nvidia driver from their website.  No problems.  Beryl works great.
[04:24] <Fezzler> Firefox setting?
[04:24] <KI4IKL> My mouse has a bad habit of locking up, is there a way for me to fix that?
[04:24] <asc> TheCreationist: That's going to be a little more tricky. Is it mounted somewhere?
[04:24] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it says it is allready there then it spits out the same output i pastebined, which inform me it isnt confgiured
[04:25] <TheCreationist> asc: It is in MSC mode, if that matters (since trying to use MTP does no good whatsoever)
[04:25] <TheCreationist> asc: It's mounted at /medica/SANSA E260
[04:25] <asc> TheCreationist: I don't know, I've never done this before. :)
[04:25] <cotyrothery> ok im restarting
[04:25] <bruenig> Fezzler, how do you know you have flash
[04:25] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Try: sudo dpkg --configure powermanagement-interface
[04:25] <yigal> TheCreationist: you have to evolve
[04:25] <TheCreationist> yigal: Meaning?
[04:25] <RickH> bruenig:  Look in the plugins directory, or just go to YouTube and try to play something.
[04:26] <yigal> TheCreationist: :) jk , just teasing about your name, low blow sorry im drunk
[04:26] <bruenig> RickH, I was asking him how he knew, not asking for advice
[04:26] <TheCreationist> yigal: Ah.. gotcha ;)
[04:26] <asc> TheCreationist: In terminal, 'sudo nautilus /MEDIA/SANSA\ E260'
[04:26] <RickH> bruenig:  I'm not sure there's a way I could've known that from your statement. :P  Many apologies though. :)
[04:26] <Fezzler> bruenig: Because when I try to install it Ubuntu tells me I have the lastest verison
[04:26] <ToastedPine> ...first time without windows, I feel like I'm on another planet.
[04:26] <pike_> .
[04:26] <bruenig> Fezzler, what does about:plugins in firefox tell you
[04:26] <bill__> Oh Jesus Im not the owner
[04:26] <yigal> ToastedPine: you are its called human :)
[04:27] <asc> TheCreationist: That will open it as root user in the file manager... but that might not help. Try copying a file in.
[04:27] <ToastedPine> the planet is called human?
[04:27] <yigal> ToastedPine: Windows is inhumane, and Ubuntu is humane
[04:27] <TheCreationist> asc: Well, I've tried the sudo rm -r on those files.  But root nautilus still won't allow me to delete.
[04:27] <yigal> ToastedPine: Go FIgure
[04:27] <asc> TheCreationist: Okay. Was it mounted automatically?
[04:27] <TheCreationist> asc: Yes, as soon as I plugged in the USB cable.
[04:28] <Fezzler> How can I check if I have Java installed for Firefox?
[04:28] <duanarchy> Can somebofu please help me get DRI working for my ati xpress 200 card?
[04:28] <yigal> Fezzler: try a yahoo game
[04:28] <ToastedPine> I just set up my firestarter but it's blocking network access to my other PC
[04:28] <ToastedPine> is there a way I can fix that?
[04:28] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, powermanagement-interface says it needs acip wich isnt configured then if i try to configure that then it says /proc/acpid/event device or resource busy
[04:28] <yigal> ToastedPine: yes it is very restrictive
[04:28] <pike_> ToastedPine: what kind of network access?
[04:28] <yigal> ToastedPine: at first
[04:28] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, powermanagement-interface says it needs acip wich isnt configured then if i try to configure that then it says /proc/acpid/event device or resource busy
[04:29] <ToastedPine> umm, it's just a windows one, where I put share folder
[04:29] <bruenig> Fezzler, go to about:plugins in firefox location bar
[04:29] <yigal> ToastedPine: I use my own iptables script but others will know how to tone it down a bit so you can use it to your advantage
[04:29] <ToastedPine> I have a wireless router
[04:29] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, well now we at least know the root error
[04:29] <johndoc> my laptop's highest resolution is 1440x900x32 and the highest option i have by default in feisty is 1280x800
[04:29] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it errors on acpid, im sure thats the main problem im having
[04:29] <vviO> Hello I need support my LAN s not working
[04:29] <odat> how do you add a new nic card on an already installed system?
[04:29] <ToastedPine> it works fine if I kill the firewall
[04:29] <asc> TheCreationist: Okay, we're going to have some fun. do 'df' in a terminal. One of the lines (probably the last) should represent the player. At the left, find its' device (probably '/dev/sd-something)
[04:29] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, i was about to say that :)
[04:29] <yigal> johndoc: what kind of driver are you using?
[04:29] <Fezzler> Yahoo games crashed / closed Firefox
[04:29] <CppIsWeird> you mean i have to add the machine name of every machine specifically i want to have the ability to browse my computer?
[04:29] <yigal> Fezzler: not good, thats very ood
[04:29] <johndoc> yigal: hate to sound n00b but beats me, whatever feisty defaulted
[04:30] <TheCreationist> asc: /dev/sdb1
[04:30] <yigal> excuse me s/ood/odd
[04:30] <pike_> johndoc: type 'grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf' what is the last Driver "" shown?
[04:30] <bruenig> Fezzler, holy fuck, go to about:plugins or gfto
[04:30] <yigal> johndoc: what card do you have

[04:31] <odat> how do you add a new nic card on an already installed system?
[04:32] <yigal> johndoc: so what card do you have, its vital to your problem
[04:32] <asc> TheCreationist: There's probably a way to edit /etc/fstab so that when it mounts the player in the future it will automatically mount it rw... but when I tried that with my usb drive boot fails when it's not plugged in.
[04:32] <MSG4> Does anyone know if Ubuntu has HardwareSupportComponentsMotherboardsIntelSocket775Asus for ASUS P5LD2 R2.0  945P
[04:32] <johndoc> did that not tell you yigal?
[04:32] <pike_> odat: hopefully you just put the nick in, reboot and it is there. course sometimes it doesnt work that way
[04:32] <nivekc1> what kind of driver would cause this?
[04:32] <yigal> johndoc: my bad dude, a bit drunk
[04:32] <johndoc> no problem yigal
[04:32] <yigal> johndoc: very good you have intel
[04:32] <odat> pike_ i can't seem to get the system to use it
[04:32] <TheCreationist> asc: Okay, I mounted it with rw, but still can't modify.
[04:33] <yigal> johndoc: do you have beryl working, compiz?
[04:33] <johndoc> right, it says 945 but i was almost positive it was 950
[04:33] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, thanks for your help, il give that a try adn im gonna go lurking some forums for that error
[04:33] <johndoc> no, i do not have any of that stuff installed
[04:33] <johndoc> i probably wouldn't even know how
[04:33] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Tell me if / how you get it working
[04:33] <pike_> odat: cat /etc/iftab or sudo ifconfig -a  should display all the nics currently setup
[04:33] <yigal> johndoc: no worries
[04:33] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, ok
[04:33] <TheCreationist> asc: Nautilus doesn't even give the option of moving to trash.

[04:33] <vviO> yigal i need support please
[04:34] <MSG4> its for the motherboard
[04:34] <TheCreationist> asc: Either.
[04:34] <johndoc> yigal: is there anyway to get the resolution i need without using beryl? surely so?
[04:34] <yigal> johndoc: i don't have intel it would be better to find someone who does
[04:34] <asc> TheCreationist: That's strange then.
[04:34] <odat> pike_ and if there are none?
[04:34] <yigal> johndoc: of course

[04:41] <asc> TheCreationist: Okay. Do 'id' and find your id. It's probably 1000.
[04:41] <Jordan_U> johndoc, Nothing, it should "just work tm"
[04:41] <asc> TheCreationist: Or id -u like TheNo1Yeti said, which works better.
[04:41] <TheCreationist> asc: it is.
[04:41] <asc> TheCreationist: Then do... uh, just a second.
[04:42] <johndoc> Jordan_U: shouldn't I like restart something for it to work?
[04:42] <cotyrothery> What video drivers do i need
[04:42] <cotyrothery> i have a i810
[04:42] <Jordan_U> johndoc, Yes, restart X

[04:43] <ste-foy> !en here ONLY ste-foy
[04:43] <CppIsWeird> oopse
[04:43] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?
[04:43] <yigal> CppIsWeird: if you want good security, then yes
[04:44] <asc> TheCreationist: Got it. Unmount the drive and mount with 'sudo mount -o uid=1000 /dev/device /media/whatever'
[04:44] <yigal> CppIsWeird: if you are using samba then no, but if you want good security then yes
[04:44] <asc> TheCreationist: That should mount it so that you can modify the files without even sudo. If it doesn't work, then I'm out of ideas other than google.
[04:44] <nivekc1> anyone know how to uninstall google earth?
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> anyways, I was trying to install a program from source using ./configure. I got past the first error I got by installing a package, but now it gives me "configure: error: libdvdcss is not installed. If you would not like to use libdvdcss or DVD functionality please use ./configure with --disable-dvd." when I try to install any packages close to libdvdcss, it tells me that theres no installation candidate, what s
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> hould I do?
[04:44] <TheNo1Yeti> nivekc1: how did you install it?  source?
[04:44] <ziroday> nivekc1: delete the file it installed
[04:45] <coopster> So, I'm building a file server with 4 hard disks of various sizes, and I have partitioned them off into partitions of the same size, and I have 3 RAIDs (2 level 5, 1 level 1) that I want to use for storage.  Can I make a RAID0 of those three RAIDs?
[04:45] <cotyrothery> what type of video drivers do i need for an i810
[04:45] <rustalot> is there a package that has a backend to a thesarus &/OR a dictionary with definitions, so my app could look up words?
[04:45] <Justi2> why does my sound not work at times?
[04:45] <nivekc1> installed from .bin file using terminal but when i try to remove i dont know what the name of it is
[04:45] <TheCreationist> asc: Okay, well that threw an error saying it couldn't find the mount point I chose in fstab.
[04:45] <Jordan_U> Thaddeus, If he installed it from source then he stole the source from Google :)
[04:45] <TheCreationist> asc: But I know that when it mounts automatically, it lists me as the owner...
[04:45] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it seems killing hald and doing a sudo dpkg --configure -a fixed my problems, i still get the device or resource busy for /proc/acpi/event but everything else went ok, now i have to recompile the drivers for mt ATI card
[04:45] <CppIsWeird> yigal, how do i just get my windows computer access to my ubuntu computer.
[04:45] <asc> TheCreationist: Uh. It shouldn't do that. :p
[04:45] <TheNo1Yeti> d4rkmonkey: If your using something like aptitude then you might want to turn on multiverse or universe support.  With Synaptic also I think
[04:46] <asc> TheCreationist: Try using the same command line as when it did mount but adding 'uid=1000' to the -o section?
[04:46] <yigal> nivekc1: it becomes more difficult, you should first update your local database for files, "sudo updatedb"
[04:46] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Why not just use the packaged drivers?
[04:46] <d4rkmonkey> TheNo1Yeti, ok I'll try that
[04:46] <TheCreationist> asc: Uhm, now I can't mount it at all because it isn't found in fstab.
[04:46] <yigal> nivekc1: and then delete all files that belong to google earth - but its messy still
[04:46] <asc> TheCreationist: Did you remember the /media/directory part?
[04:46] <yigal> CppIsWeird: there are many ways, are you using samba?
[04:46] <CppIsWeird> no idea, im doing everything through ubuntu, you tell me
[04:46] <vviO> yigal: so what do u say
[04:47] <TheCreationist> asc: Yeah... that's the same place I tried mounting it again.
[04:47] <TheNo1Yeti> d4rkmonkey: I assume your propably using apt-get or aptitude to install your lib's so you would need to first edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file and then apt-get update
[04:47] <nivekc1> well i want to completely remove it because im pretty sure i screwed up the install by clicking run while i was in sudo
[04:47] <asc> TheCreationist: Is there a line for the player in fstab now?
[04:47] <yigal> vviO: what application have you been using to try and see if your hardware is connecting?  What gateway are you trying to connect to?
[04:47] <Fezzler> Is there any advantage to installing flashplayer from Adobe website vs Ubuntu Synaptic?
[04:48] <TheCreationist> asc: No.
[04:48] <TheCreationist> asc: there never was.
[04:48] <yigal> Fezzler: what is the version number for both?
[04:48] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, No
[04:48] <asc> TheCreationist: It's behaving very oddly. I have to go to dinner. I'll be back, but you'll probably be best off asking other people.
[04:48] <d4rkmonkey> TheNo1Yeti, I'm using apt-get. but the program I'm installing from, I'm installing from source. I need apt-get to get the libdvdcss, but it doesn't seem to download anything. I'm gonna check my repos...
[04:48] <asc> TheCreationist: Does the directory exist in /media?
[04:48] <yigal> Fezzler: in many cases it is better to use a .deb package then a executable that will throw files everywher eon your file system
[04:48] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, Other than the fact that installing from Adobe you can install it for only one user
[04:48] <vviO> yigal: its DHCP
[04:49] <yigal> vviO: are you confused ? :)
[04:49] <TheCreationist> asc: Okay, I'm not sure what I did, but it mounted this time.
[04:49] <vviO> yigal: yes I am new to ubuntu
[04:49] <yigal> vviO: are you new to linux?
[04:49] <asc> TheCreationist: I sacrificed a small furry animal, that probably helped.
[04:49] <vviO> yigal: i have worked on fedora before
[04:49] <yigal> vviO: are you familiar with cli?
[04:49] <TheCreationist> asc: Well, I still can't delete from the player though.
[04:49] <Fezzler> Okay.  I did a complete removal via Synaptic and I'm now reinstalling
[04:49] <vviO> yigal: I am not an expert
[04:49] <cerda> i need some help loadin ubuntu
[04:50] <vviO> yigal: cli
[04:50] <yigal> Fezzler: what?
[04:50] <yigal> Fezzler: omg
[04:50] <vviO> yigal: I am not aware of that cli
[04:50] <TheNo1Yeti> Anyone here familiar with Tripwire at all or can point me to some good resources for learning about it/configuring it.
[04:50] <yigal> vviO: cli = command line interface
[04:50] <cerda> so can somone help
[04:50] <yigal> vviO: cli == terminal
[04:50] <asc> TheCreationist: 0_o. Try it again, this time add 'umask=007'. If that doesn't work, I'm really out of ideas. Leaving for dinner now.
[04:50] <vviO> yigal: u mean terminal/shell
[04:50] <asc> (add that to the -o section I mean)
[04:50] <yigal> vviO: y
[04:51] <vviO> yigal: yes I know abt that
[04:51] <vviO> yigal: ifconfig
[04:51] <TheNo1Yeti> cerda: any chance of being more specific?
[04:51] <yigal> vviO: open a terminal.
[04:51] <Fezzler> yigal: Why is my struggle to get Flashplayer working in Firefox pissing a couple folks off?
[04:51] <TheCreationist> I'm trying to delete files from my MP3 player (tried to do so in Amarok, Terminal, and File Browser), but it says it's a read-only file system.  I've tried using sudo rm -r... no luck.  Any ideas?
[04:51] <vviO> yigal: its open
[04:51] <TheCreationist> asc: Didn't work.  But thanks for your help.
[04:51] <nivekc1> unless i did install it correctly and i am having a driver issue but idk what it is? anyone know anthing about google earth crashing at startup and logging the user out?
[04:51] <bruenig> TheCreationist, how did you mount it
[04:51] <M`Hael> is it normal that System Monitor shows GNU Chess as using 89% of my CPU?
[04:51] <yigal> Fezzler: its very easy, so they probably dont understand how much pain you are going through to get it working :)
[04:51] <cerda> Aright, well i go into loading ubuntu, and it just gets stuck at the part were it say loading, somtimes i can get up to the ubuntu icon
[04:52] <TheCreationist> bruenig: Well, it automounts normally.  But I've tried mounting it manually as rw, but still doesn't work.
[04:52] <bruenig> M`Hael, probably not
[04:52] <TheCreationist> bruenig: I was able to ADD files to it, but not move or remove.
[04:52] <M`Hael> bruenig: didn't think so....
[04:52] <bruenig> TheCreationist, mount it with umask=000
[04:52] <TheNo1Yeti> M`Hael: That means that either A. The system is about to litteraly own you Deep Blue style or B. It went wonky
[04:52] <yigal> Fezzler: have you installed this ? i   flashplugin-nonfree             - Adobe Flash Player plugin installer
[04:52] <vviO> yigal: whats next?
[04:52] <bruenig> TheCreationist, wait, you could add files but not delete?
[04:52] <TheCreationist> bruenig: Yep.
[04:52] <yigal> Fezzler: i.e. sudo aptitude  flashplugin-nonfree
[04:52] <TheCreationist> bruenig: When trying to delete, it says read-only file system.  But it lets me add files?
[04:52] <M`Hael> TheNo1Yeti: it runs at 89% from the start, even before I start a game
[04:52] <bruenig> yigal, just leave him alone, he is incompetent and refuses to cooperate, hopefully he will leave
[04:52] <d4rkmonkey> hmm, I can't seem to find this package that I need for DVD functionality...
[04:52] <cerda> any ideas?
[04:53] <yigal> vviO: I want you to type "ping www.google.com" and tell me the repsonse
