[03:36] <losher> fallore: ok, I think this is because knoppix uses different naming conventions for grub. I think I'm stuck at this point. Did you say you have a ubuntu live cd?
[03:36] <xxiao> because of this stupid audio issue
[03:36] <mimiloon> hi everybody, i have a quick question on firestarter and that is: i have multiple network cards and when i disconnect one network card and use the other, the firewall also stops. is there a way to make the firewall stay active no matter which network card i'm using?
[03:36] <mudittuli> scunizi: I updated my machine >> the creen resolution got messed up >> Installed the nvidia driver >> still messed up
[03:36] <xxiao> it worked well until two days ago
[03:36] <tanath> ah well, thanks
[03:36] <fallore> losher: i might somewhere, let me look
[03:36] <mudittuli> the screen*
[03:37] <scunizi> mudittuli: again which driver?  the one direct from nvidia that needs downloading or the one supplied by ubuntu?
[03:37] <fallore> losher: i have 7.10 :P will that work?
[03:37] <kamal> hi everyone
[03:37] <mudittuli> scunizi: I downloaded the driver from nvidia
[03:37] <losher> fallore: it should work fine. Do you want to try booting it?
[03:37] <kamal> please i neef some help
[03:37] <fallore> sure losher, i'll report back.
[03:37] <mudittuli> the latest one !
[03:38] <losher> fallore: ok, standing by...
[03:38] <tanath> imwheel borked my mouse >.<
[03:38] <scunizi> mudittuli: and did you reinstall it with the desktop shutdown and from terminal?
[03:38] <kamal> I recently installed ubuntu on my HP DV7 1035em and the LFE ( subwoofer ) doesn't work !
[03:38] <tanath> now scroll wheel is back & forward, and thum buttons don't work
[03:38] <kamal> do you know how can i fix this ?
[03:38] <Xcell> tanath-  i know in the ubuntu forums there are ways to edit xorg and play with it.. i have yet to try this.
[03:38] <mudittuli> scunizi: i installed with X server stopped

[03:39] <mudittuli> and yes from terminal
[03:39] <tanath> Xcell, really shouldn't have to by now >.<
[03:39] <dignan> tanath: it's the Option ZAxisMapping in xorg.conf
[03:39] <tanath> Xcell, should have been fixed yrs ago
[03:39] <dignan> set it to "4 5"
[03:40] <scunizi> mudittuli: something might have gone wrong on the reinstall.. you might try again.. also after installation you need to reboot not just restart x.. the last thing to try would be to install nvidia-settings, load that with sudo from cli and "save" to your xorg file
[03:40] <Xcell> thanks dignan  ill try that later.
[03:40] <dignan> i don't know what imwheel is
[03:41] <dignan> do you guys have special mice?
[03:41] <Xcell> its a mouse button controller
[03:41] <dignan> how many buttons on your mouse?
[03:41] <centaur5> I've tried installing the packages libsexy and pythonsexy from 3 different mirrors and they all give errors with size mismatches. Is there something wrong with the repositories?
[03:41] <Xcell> i have 7
[03:41] <dignan> oh snap

[03:41] <tanath> dignan, do you know what it should be for logitech mx500?
[03:41] <zach74> Xcell, what mouse?
[03:42] <Xcell> logitech lx7
[03:42] <matari> Does anyone know how to get multiple mice up and running?
[03:42] <Xcell> put a cat behind them
[03:42] <dignan> i'm not sure if the xorg.conf edit will make a difference.. you could tell by running xev and scrolling down and up and seeing if the button attribute is 4 and 5 respectively.. I'm not sure about your special mouse cases.. but if Xorg has no problem recognizing the higher buttons on its own.. no extra software should be required
[03:42] <Xcell> lol  j/k
[03:42] <scunizi> lube the wheel
[03:42] <fallore> hi losher :D
[03:43] <m1chael> im running ubuntu virtually.. and the networking is working perfect right out of the box.. im wondering.. what can i type on the shell that would show me all the network interface stuff... ips/host names/dhcp/etc...
[03:43] <losher> fallore: hi fallore
[03:43] <dignan> basically xev will give you a lot of insight into your mouse pursuits
[03:43] <dignan> try it
[03:43] <IamSOG> odd xubuntu 8.04 take so long to boot
[03:43] <fallore> i'm on ubuntu 7.10 atm, losher.
[03:43] <mudittuli> scunizi: okies, I will attempt again !, will be back in few minutes
[03:43] <scunizi> mudittuli: :)
[03:43] <IamSOG> OH wait, I mean 9.04
[03:43] <losher> fallore: ok, we're gonna follow http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[03:43] <tanath> Xcell, dignan, my xorg.conf config has the mouse section commented out by update-manager saying HAL is now used...
[03:44] <tanath> Xcell, dignan, but i had the zaxismapping in there...
[03:44] <mudittuli> so how do I go about it, : Stop X server >> install driver from terminal >> reboot
[03:44] <fallore> site loaded, losher
[03:45] <scunizi> mudittuli: you
[03:45] <scunizi> mudittuli: oops..
[03:45] <losher> fallore: ok, here we go. 'sudo grub'
[03:45] <fallore> done
[03:45] <losher> fallore: find /boot/grub/stage1
[03:45] <scales11> hi all.  i am trying to blacklist a driver, i tried
[03:45] <scales11> sudo echo zd1211rw >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[03:45] <scales11> but it didnt seem to work?
[03:45] <fallore> losher: Error 15: File not found
[03:46] <zach74> when i was on 8.04 my internet was a lot faster, why is it so slow with 9.04
[03:46] <losher> fallore: ok. I wonder if the grub files are lost. Open another terminal
[03:46] <scunizi> mudittuli: you'd ctrl+alt+F2.. log in then .. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop .. then.. cd to the directory where the install file is and .. sudo ./<filename> .. after install .. sudo reboot now
[03:46] <fallore> losher: could this be because i have two hard drives? there is an edit and quote at the bottom of the post about this
[03:46] <tsimpson> scales11: user "echo zd1211rw | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist"
[03:46] <mudittuli> scunizi: anything more ?

[03:46] <skippy> I tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent.
[03:47] <fallore> losher: AND grub is not and would not be installed on the the hard drive i've been running windows off of for a while.
[03:47] <scunizi> mudittuli: it *should* be that simple.. that's the way I do it.
[03:47] <fallore> losher: both "edits" look like they may have some relevance to my problem
[03:47] <Edgar1> hi, i have installed ubuntu 9.04
[03:47] <fallore> congrats, edgar
[03:47] <Edgar1> but now i can't listen anysound, no music
[03:47] <losher> fallore: well, we'll check again. In the new terminal, do 'fdisk -l /dev/sda' like last time
[03:48] <Edgar1> not sure why, the volume is ok and the system detect that sound card
[03:48] <Edgar1> help with this please
[03:48] <dignan> run alsamixer from a terminal and make sure pcm and volume are maxed
[03:48] <skippy> I tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent. Is there another way?
[03:48] <losher> fallore: oops, sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[03:48] <fallore> losher: http://pastebin.com/d671c5b3c
[03:49] <tanath> anyone know how to enable thumb mouse buttons for back & forward in nautilus without messing with imwheel?
[03:49] <elitecoder> Why would this: /sbin/ip route add <IP_ADDRESS>/24 table 1 dev eth2 src <IP_ADDRESS> give me RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument?
[03:49] <elitecoder> I've been trying to fix this for hours and I don't understand what the issue is
[03:49] <elitecoder> I tried re-ordering the variables to match the `ip route add help` syntax as closely as i can and it's still doing it
[03:49] <losher> fallore: ok, sudo fsck /dev/sda6
[03:49] <fallore> same output as last time, losher
[03:49] <mphill_> is static during audio play back a known issue?  I've tried two different sound cards, both get static, the speakers seem fine when I use ESD.
[03:50] <dignan> tanath: a stab in the dark here.. try looking at the gconf settings for nautilus to see if there is a way to bind a key or mouse button to an action
[03:50] <skippy> I tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent.   Should I try manually creating?
[03:50] <losher> fallore: good, now 'sudo mkdir /mnt/root' like last time
[03:51] <skippy> jI tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent.
[03:51] <skippy> Should I try another way?
[03:51] <skippy> :)
[03:51] <losher> fallore: and finally. mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/root
[03:51] <tanath> dignan, hrm, thanks but didn't find anything :-/
[03:52] <dignan> you looked in gconf editor?
[03:52] <fallore> done, losher
[03:52] <Kana-nano> im having a slight problem unstalling Wine, does anyone have a minute to help?
[03:52] <Kana-nano> installing*
[03:52] <LadyNikon> Kana-nano: i would explain what your problem is .. vs asking can someone help.
[03:52] <tanath> dignan, yeah
[03:52] <skippy> I tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent.
[03:53] <losher> fallore: ok, 'ls -l /mnt/root/boot/grub' & oaste
[03:53] <dignan> is there at least a way to bind key combos in nautilus to back and forward?
[03:53] <Kana-nano> sorry didnt want to be rude =3
[03:53] <dignan> i'm guessing imwheel si a program that translates mouse presses into key presses?
[03:53] <fallore> losher: http://pastebin.com/d4973692f
[03:53] <tanath> dignan, not that i saw
[03:53] <dignan> ok
[03:53] <tanath> dignan, something like that yeah
[03:54] <Edgar1> i stiil have no sound after chekc the alsamixer
[03:54] <losher> fallore: that looks perfect. All the grub files are there, including stage1
[03:54] <Classic> hello
[03:54] <skippy> I tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent.
[03:54] <dignan> so there's a hard coded key combo in nautilus for forward and backward
[03:54] <dignan> I don't have nautilus anymore.. I have thunar
[03:54] <skippy> I tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent.  How do you manually set up?
[03:54] <Kana-nano> but in any case. my ubuntu distro is about a year old and apparently didnt have libasound packaged into it. so i go to install Wine and it tells me its missing libasound
[03:54] <fallore> losher: do i have to use the hdd(x,y) bit then?
[03:54] <Kana-nano> so i DL the libasound2 packet installer, and i get an error that says "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: lobasound2"
[03:54] <mimiloon> hi everybody, i have a quick question on firestarter and that is: i have multiple network cards and when i disconnect one network card and use the other, the firewall also stops. is there a way to make the firewall stay active no matter which network card i'm using?
[03:55] <skippy> I tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent.
[03:55] <Kana-nano> i have no idea what this means... any thoughts?
[03:55] <fallore> or the second edit in that forum post, losher?
[03:55] <skippy> I tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPersistent with 9.04 using the USB Startup creator.  It didn't work.  Not persistent.  How do you do it manually?
[03:55] <losher> fallore: we'll get to that. Notice that there some extra steps in the guide for people who couldn't get grub to find the stage1 file? we're gonna try those...
[03:55] <fallore> alright
[03:55] <dignan> tanath: you might go into the gnome bugtraq and file a feature request for nautilus to do this
[03:56] <losher> fallore: ok, we already have /mnt/root and /dev/sda6 is mounted. Now we need to add: sudo mount -t proc none /mnt/root/proc
[03:56] <prag> how do i run ubuntu in windows
[03:56] <fallore> no output, losher
[03:56] <dignan> with a virtual machine
[03:56] <prag> without booting
[03:56] <ericindc> Can someone suggest the easiest way to install Java (for JRuby) on Ubuntu?
[03:57] <Edgar1> what else i can do?
[03:57] <losher> fallore: perfect, and then sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/root/dev
[03:57] <prag> dignan what image do i need to download i got alternate image downloaded
[03:57] <dignan> Edgar1: are you using headphones that aren't plugged directly into your soundcard?
[03:57] <geofft> prag: what are you trying to do? Run Ubuntu programs? Play with Ubuntu?
[03:57] <Kana-nano> so nobody knows eh?
[03:57] <prag> no i already got ubuntu dual booting
[03:57] <dignan> prag: you need the regular ix86-32 image.. I would assume
[03:57] <prag> man
[03:57] <dignan> oh
[03:58] <dignan> you can boot your installation from within windows too
[03:58] <dignan> just tell vmware or virtualbox to use the partition
[03:58] <fallore> once again, losher, no output
[03:58] <losher> fallore: good, now sudo chroot /mnt/root /bin/bash
[03:58] <prag> dignan really
[03:58] <dignan> yes
[03:58] <Kana-nano> wow, this is why i asked if anyone had a minute. asking did nothing
[03:58] <dignan> with vmware you can, i don't know about vbox.. odds are you can
[03:58] <losher> fallore: then 'find /boot/grub/stage1'
[03:58] <fallore> Kana-nano: standard procedure is ask...wait...ask...wait...ask...wait... etc
[03:59] <prag> so i am downloading vmware server console that is what i need right
[03:59] <dignan> i've never used server. i've only used workstation
[03:59] <__mikem> dignan, even if you can't do it in virtualbox now, knowing those guys, its probably in the pipeline
[03:59] <dignan> i believe you have the stripped down free version that boots .vmx files
[03:59] <Edgar1> i'm not using headphones
[03:59] <dignan> i would get virtualbox
[03:59] <dignan> Edgar1: have you ran alsamixer yet?
[03:59] <matari> Does anyone know if Ubuntu supports multiple mouse cursors?
[03:59] <fallore> losher: find: /boot/grub: No such file or directory
[03:59] <fallore> find: /boot/grub: No such file or directory
[03:59] <fallore> find: /boot/grub: No such file or directory
[03:59] <fallore> find: /boot/grub: No such file or directory
[03:59] <fallore> find: /boot/grub: No such file or directory
[03:59] <FloodBot2> fallore: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:59] <Edgar1> i'm using speaker
[03:59] <Edgar1> speakers
[03:59] <jezi22> anyone know how to load IPS in VisualBoy?
[03:59] <dignan> Edgar1: have you ran alsamixer?
[04:00] <__mikem> what an impersonal way to deal with a simple mistake :(
[04:00] <fallore> sorry about that, losher and other.
[04:00] <Kana-nano> "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libasound2" what does this mean and how can i fix it?
[04:01] <losher> fallore: so the find never returned a line like 'root (hd0,5)'
[04:01] <mib_3qj9ogdg> how can i make a terminal window so that you cant highlight anything with ur mouse?
[04:01] <fallore> no, it didn't, losher
[04:01] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Some packages require other packages in order to work
 where did you see this?
[04:01] <avero_m> goodmorning guys
[04:01] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, What were you trying to install that created that message?
[04:01] <Kana-nano> its on Libasound2's package installer
[04:01] <losher> fallore: ok, exit from grub
[04:01] <Kana-nano> it wont unpack
[04:01] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, You downloaded a .deb file?  or some sort of archive?
[04:01] <Kana-nano> dev
[04:02] <ed_debian> ok
[04:02] <losher> fallore: and do 'ls -l /boot/grub'. Does it show stage1 ?
[04:02] <Edgar1> dignan yes i have
[04:02] <dignan> turn everything up to the max
 did you run the install as root?
[04:02] <dignan> everything that you see
[04:02] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, It is telling you that to install that package you need the aforementioned package (the one that is unsatisfiable)
[04:02] <ed_debian> What was it called again?
[04:02] <dignan> how are you playing sounds here?
[04:02] <Kana-nano> uh
[04:02] <fallore> same error, losher. do i maybe have to point it at a particular hdd?
[04:02] <mib_3qj9ogdg> how can i make a terminal window so that you cant highlight anything with ur mouse?
[04:02] <Kana-nano> so its telling me that.. i need the package that it is... installed before i can install it?
[04:02] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Who are you uh ... ing?
[04:03] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Did it refer to itself?
[04:03] <Kana-nano> yes it did
[04:03] <unop_> mib_3qj9ogdg, you should already be able to do that by default
[04:03] <Kana-nano> im trying to install Wine, but it wants libasound
[04:03] <unop_> mib_3qj9ogdg, oh, can't??
[04:03] <losher> fallore: the find is supposed to search all the drives. But we can try it. Nothing to lose at this point...
[04:03] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Well that is strange but you said it's a dev pacakge right?  As in developer?
[04:03] <Kana-nano> so i dl libasound2-dev and get this error under its own status
[04:03] <losher> fallore: back into grub: 'sudo grub'
[04:03] <fallore> k
[04:04] <ZykoticK9> matari, check out MPX or i guess there is also some sort of patch for xorg - good luck.
[04:04] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Do you know about the repos?
[04:04] <geofft> Kana-nano: I would imagine that libasound2-dev depends on libasound2.
[04:04] <losher> fallore: type root (hd0,5)
[04:04] <Edgar1> i'm playing a song in totem
[04:04] <Kana-nano> no, ive only been running linux for a couple days now, attemping to get settled in with it
[04:04] <fallore> no output, losher
[04:04] <Edgar1> but i don't listen anysound
[04:04] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Prepare to be thrilled.
[04:04] <geofft> Kana-nano: what version of Ubuntu are you running?
[04:04] <Kana-nano> lol here we go
[04:04] <losher> fallore: now 'setup (hd0)'
[04:04] <matari> do you know anything about MPX? I see so much about it, but no guides to get it working
[04:04] <geofft> libasound2 has been in Ubuntu since Dapper
[04:05] <Kana-nano> 8.04
[04:05] <geofft> (at least)
[04:05] <fallore> losher: http://pastebin.com/d4d4d5699
[04:05] <n00b871> I apologize, because i know this question has been asked a million times, but i can never memorize the command to install the ubuntu compiz cube. Can someone please help me with the audo apt-get install compiz-something...? i forget what the whole command is, thanks
[04:05] <mudittuli> scunizi: nothing changed, same result !
[04:05] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Linux is based on the idea of free software.  The ubuntu developers have created a massive repository of software (pre-complied) that you can download and use for free
[04:05] <Kana-nano> yeah, this i understand
[04:05] <ZykoticK9> matari, i don't really know much about it at all - found it when i tried to get two mice working, i gave up...  hope you have better luck
[04:05] <mib_3qj9ogdg> how can i make a terminal window so that you cant highlight anything with ur mouse?
[04:06] <unop_> !ccsm | n00b871
[04:06] <scunizi> mudittuli: try installing nvidia-settings and running that..
[04:06] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, There are a couple different ways to access these packages (they're called)  The first and most simple is Add/ Remove
[04:06] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Have you used add / remove?
[04:06] <Kana-nano> yeah, im completly familiar with the package managers
[04:06] <matari> well if anyone's gotten Multi-pointer X to work any help would be appreciated :)
[04:06] <Edgar1> what can i do in my case?
[04:07] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Ok, stop me again if I'm telling you something you already know
[04:07] <TimReichhart> hi guys I need some help on getting horde/imp to show up on my server I used the command line to install it by apt-get install imp4
[04:07] <ed_debian> To get wine just get it from the repos!
[04:07] <Kana-nano> ok well, i guess its only fair if i state ive taken a linux class too
[04:07] <Kana-nano> so odds are, ill probably know the more basic things
[04:07] <n00b871> ubotu: how do i ask you questions, what is the format?
[04:07] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, lucky
[04:07] <Kana-nano> expensive too
[04:07] <ed_debian> oic
[04:07] <Kana-nano> but go ahead
[04:07] <fallore> n00b871: simply ask what you think is your best attempt at formulating your question
[04:07] <mudittuli> scunizi: i tried that !, but the nvidia-setting is not running, even after nvidia-xcofig from the command line
[04:08] <Kana-nano> thats the problem, Wine refuses to install
[04:08] <ed_debian> If you run the command sudo apt-get install wine
[04:08] <ed_debian> ?
[04:08] <ed_debian> What happens?
[04:08] <losher> fallore: damn. I'm afraid I'm stuck then. The best I can offer at this stage is for you to keep reading that thread and try some of the different suggestions
[04:08] <Kana-nano> the Add/Remove packager states i should use synaptic to install Wine
[04:08] <scunizi> mudittuli: and nvidia-xconfig didn't do anything?  did your update include a kernel upgrade?
[04:08] <Kana-nano> Synaptic states i need libasound
[04:08] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, did you?
[04:08] <ed_debian> ok...
[04:08] <n00b871> fallore: so do i type in uobotu !myquestion ?what do i type in to get a response ,, sorry i am a n00b
[04:09] <Kana-nano> libasound says "dependency is not satisfiable"
[04:09] <mudittuli> scunizi: yes it did
[04:09] <ed_debian> n00b871, Just type the question and people will answer

[04:09] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, ok, because Wine is in the repos all of it's dependencies should all be in the repos.  You should not need to download a package from the internet like you did (that's windows like)
[04:10] <Kana-nano> that was my first thought too. hence why im lost atm
[04:10] <n00b871> ahh nice, ok i got it who likes salivadore dali paintings?
[04:10] <Kana-nano> i could CnP the exact wording of the errors if you think that might help
[04:10] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, search synaptic for "libasound" or whatever it is
[04:11] <Kana-nano> ok 1 sec
[04:11] <mudittuli> scunizi: the update didn't found a pre-compiled kernel, so it compiled one by itself !
[04:11] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, That isn't necessary I get the idea
[04:11] <Flannel> n00b871: Please keep your questions on topic.  This is a support channel.  If you're looking for chat, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:11] <ed_debian> n00b871, I do?  What does this have to do with ubuntu?
[04:12] <fallore> thanks for all your help, losher
[04:12] <scunizi> mudittuli: usually with a kernel upgrade a reinstall is necessary when using nvidia's driver.  Obviously something else is going on. You might paruse the ubuntuforums.org and nvidia's linux forum.  by pre-complied kernel, that happened when installing the nvidia driver? or during the update?
[04:12] <Kana-nano> ... it says its installed
[04:12] <Kana-nano> green box
[04:12] <n00b871> i apologize, that must be off topic
[04:12] <TimReichhart> hi guys I need some help on getting horde/imp to show up on my server I used the command line to install it by apt-get install imp4
[04:12] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, libasound is installed?
[04:12] <Kana-nano> yes
[04:12] <mudittuli> scunizi: and when i run nvidia-xconfig, a new xconfig file is written nothing more !
[04:12] <Kana-nano> so claims synaptic
[04:12] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, But when you mark wine for installation what happens?
[04:12] <ed_debian> lol
[04:12] <losher> fallore: sorry it didn't solve your problem. I think we're close though, for what it's worth... :-(
[04:12] <ed_debian> so claims...
[04:12] <ed_debian> arrogant synaptic
[04:12] <Kana-nano> on synaptic?
[04:12] <FloodBot2> ed_debian: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:12] <Kana-nano> it gives me this:
[04:12] <ed_debian> sorry FloodBot2 :(
[04:13] <mudittuli> scunizi: that happen during nvidia
[04:13] <Kana-nano> The following packages have unresolvable dependencies. Make sure that all required repositories are added and enabled int he preferences
[04:13] <mudittuli> scunizi: that happen during installing  nvidia driver *
[04:13] <fallore> losher: i got it ;) interested in the solution? :)
[04:13] <Kana-nano> wine:
[04:13] <Kana-nano>   Depends: libasound2 (>1.0.18) but 1.0.15-3ubuntu4 is to be installed
[04:13] <losher> fallore: definitely. Please tell...
[04:13] <mimiloon> hi everybody, i have a quick question on firestarter and that is: i have multiple network cards and when i disconnect one network card and use the other, the firewall also stops. is there a way to make the firewall stay active no matter which network card i'm using?
[04:13] <dan> ok so my main HD is encrypted with the Ubuntu filesystem encryption. I just added another HD. Is there a way to encrypt that also and link it to the main encryption or do I need to use a program like truecrypt?
[04:13] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Hit the reload button?
[04:14] <Kana-nano> oh i have, 20 times
[04:14] <arthurh> is there some kind of apt "meta package" that installs only security updates on an ubuntu server (9.04)?
[04:14] <ed_debian> go to system -> preferences -> software sources
[04:14] <fallore> losher: we forgot to chroot :P
[04:14] <scunizi> mudittuli: that's normal for the nvidia driver when installing the one direct from nvidia.. it needs to make a kernel mod.  so I take it you've already install  "build-essential" previously?
[04:14] <losher> fallore: so it works now?
[04:15] <fallore> losher: sudo chroot /mnt/root /bin/bash was the only step i didn't take. i did that and then followed all the instructions after (in the 2nd "NOTICE/EDIT" window) and it worked perfectly
[04:15] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, It might be system -> admin -> software sources
[04:15] <barbarella2> mimiloon:you have to make rules for all interfaces
[04:15] <losher> fallore: and it boots (the acid test)?
[04:15] <IamSOG> um... what's in xubuntu 9.04 that makes it load so much longer? is it possible to remove that long loading time?
[04:15] <dan> IamSOG, Mine actually boots faster
[04:15] <IamSOG> dan you using ext4 ?
[04:16] <dan> IamSOG, yep
[04:16] <IamSOG> nice, sounds like I should try it then
[04:16] <Kana-nano> right, i have WineHQ selected under Third-Party Software and the key in the Authentication tab
[04:16] <Clusty> hey
[04:16] <Kana-nano> and reloaded afterwards
[04:17] <dan> IamSOG, I haven't tried it with SSD's but with a traditional HD it feels faster though I haven't done a quantitative test.
[04:17] <Clusty> i was dumb enough to enable home encryption during installation. is there a way to disable it?
[04:17] <mudittuli> scunizi: yes i have build-essential
[04:17] <mimiloon> barbarella2: how can i do that? i'm new to linux
[04:17] <Clusty> i think that I cannot auth with ssh keys because of this
[04:18] <cintya> oi
[04:18] <scunizi> mudittuli: sounds like either a regression on the new kernel or something else.. the only thing I can suggest at this point is to look at nvidia's linux forum and ubuntuforums.org.. I'm out of ideas.. you might boot into the previous kernel and reinstall the driver there where it worked until you get it sorted out.
[04:18] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Here is what I think it happening.  You have enabled the WINE developers repo and when you search synaptic it automatically shows you the newest package (from the WINE repo)  However the libasound that is currently in the ubuntu repos isn't new enough for the newest WINE package.  Therefore it seems unattainable to synaptic.  Try to install an older version of WINE or try removing that repo from your software sources.
[04:18] <fallore> losher: haven't tried yet, but i'll let you know
[04:19] <Kana-nano> ok hold on
[04:19] <losher> fallore: good luck
[04:19] <puff> How do I get gnome network-manager to stop yanking my wirelss card out of monitor mode?
[04:19] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, ubuntu has a wine package (you don't need that repo) it's just not as new (probably)
[04:19] <Clusty> puff: you kill it :D
[04:19] <barbarella2> mimiloon:take a look at fwbuilder
[04:19] <Mipsalawishus> irc.dal.net
[04:19] <puff> Clusty: I wa safraid you were going to say that.
[04:19] <Clusty> puff: killall -9 NetworkManager/avahi
[04:20] <puff> Okay, once I'm done, how do I restart it?
[04:20] <scunizi> mudittuli: sorry I can't offer anything more.. :(
[04:20] <Clusty> puff: i presume you wanna crack wirelesses?
[04:20] <ed_debian> Also the reason that your libasound dev file wouldn't work is because it is a developer file.  It is designed to take a working libasound package and update it.  It is not a complete package.  Rather it is a bunch of improved code
[04:20] <Kana-nano> ok i see what to do. ill follow up when im done doing just that
[04:20] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Ok, let me know how it goes!
[04:20] <mimiloon> barbarella2: i tried that but it's too complicated
[04:20] <puff> Clusty: No, actually it's my own network, I need to log an http session to debug what's going on with this webapp.
[04:20] <puff> (when accessed from a user's mac)
[04:21] <Clusty> puff: you get a nice tool with aircrack-ng called airmon or so
[04:21] <barbarella2> mimiloon:there is a wizard in it to make things easy
[04:21] <Kana-nano> oh wait, you know what?
[04:21] <puff> Clusty: What does it do?
[04:21] <Kana-nano> this is Ubuntu's package
[04:21] <Clusty> puff: airmon status wlan0 or something like that tells you all processing interfering
[04:21] <GillaGal> Does anyone know how to add a UID/pass to mount a NFS share?
[04:21] <Clusty> puff: which i killed by hand
[04:21] <mimiloon> barbarella2: thanks, let me download it again
[04:22] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, What makes you say that?
[04:22] <puff> Ah-hah, cool.
[04:22] <puff> So I really kill *all* the processes with avahi in their name?
[04:22] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, (BTW if you type my name before the things you say my client will highlight it for me and I will respond sooner)
[04:22] <Clusty> puff: that is what i did :D. kill all and let god sort them :D
[04:22] <Kana-nano> this is the page i followed:  http://www.winehq.org/download/deb
[04:22] <Clusty> puff: did not have time to investigate an elegant solution
[04:23] <Kana-nano> ed_debian: yeah, my fault. sorry about that
[04:23] <Clusty> puff: drawback is that you need to restart machine i guess to get back the nifty features
[04:23] <Kana-nano> ed_debian: but yeah, thats the page i used. and also followed its instructions to the T
[04:23] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, What page are you talking about?
[04:23] <Kana-nano> ed_debian: http://www.winehq.org/download/deb
[04:23] <ed_debian> oic
[04:24] <dan> ok so my main HD is encrypted with the Ubuntu filesystem encryption. I just added another HD. Is there a way to encrypt that also and link it to the main encryption or do I need to use a program like truecrypt?
[04:24] <ed_debian> You did good following the instructions
[04:25] <ed_debian> Kana-nano, Why do you think that the wine package you're trying to install is the ubuntu one?
[04:26] <jrib> Kana-nano: apt-cache policy wine  on pastebin please
[04:26] <Kana-nano> ed_debian: doesnt Adding the WineHQ APT Repository from one of the links on that page give you that distro?
[04:26] <Clusty> so any1 has a clue about encrypted home dirts?
[04:27] <Clusty> dan: :D any clue how I can disable encryption for homes? its a regular ext4 with some funny loopback
[04:28] <billu> hi
[04:29] <fallore> losher: alright, gonna reboot O_O wish me luck
[04:29] <losher> fallore: fingers crossed
[04:31] <Finnish> Hello. I have problem with Kino and firewire, it has been working great but suddenly I lost 1394-module, Kino can't see it. I always use sudo kino-command but it is not working right now
[04:31] <scales11> hey all, trying to use ubuntu 7.10, apt-get says most of the sources are not available?
[04:31] <SunnyDP> Hey! Do you guys think Fedora 11 will make a bigger impact as a desktop OS than Ubuntu 9.04 did?
[04:32] <LadyNikon> SunnyDP: thats really offtopic. i would ask something like that in #ubuntu-chat
[04:32] <Xcell> scales11-  they stopped support for 7.10
[04:32] <Gofforth> scales11: its probably because of the SSL Black list run the update manager and it will download the blacklist and then everything should be peach
[04:32] <SunnyDP> LadyNikon: sorry brother
[04:32] <LadyNikon> brother..
[04:32] <LadyNikon> i wont even go there.
[04:32] <jrib> Kana-nano: hello?
[04:32] <wtl> can i set deluge to make active more than 3 torrents at a time? :)
[04:33] <TeenySHAD0W> any idea when seamonkey will be updated to 1.1.16 in the repositories?
[04:33] <LadyNikon> wtl: i would read the docs on Deluge to figure that out.
[04:33] <jrib> !timebasedreleases > TeenySHAD0W
[04:33] <orange-wedge> just got a new seiko self-winding watch all...
[04:33] <jrib> !ot | orange-wedge
[04:33] <Xcell> put ubuntu on that watch
[04:33] <Kana-nano> jrib: yes?
[04:34] <orange-wedge> ha ha ha
[04:34] <scales11> well i was only using 7.10 because i needed the older version of gcc to compile a driver...can i get an older version of gcc with jaunty and use it?
[04:34] <jrib> scales11: because 7.10 is no longer supported.  You need to use a supported version
[04:34] <fallore> losher: grub showed up :D booted to windows, so i don't know if actually booting to ubuntu works (though i assume so), but i'm pretty sure my problem is fixed :D
[04:34] <orange-wedge> jeez
[04:34] <Gofforth> Scales11: doubtful
[04:34] <jrib> scales11: what older version?
[04:34] <scales11> umm
[04:34] <jrib> Kana-nano: are you going to pastebin what I asked?
[04:35] <losher> fallore: if it doesn't work booting Ubuntu, I know how to fix it :-)
[04:35] <scales11> jrib: 4.1.2
[04:35] <jrib> scales11: that's in the repositories
[04:36] <scales11> or if someone could help me, i am trying to compile this driver http://zd1211.wiki.sourceforge.net/VendorBasedDriver
[04:36] <jrib> !info gcc-4.1 | scales11
[04:36] <IamSOG> I have seen it's able to Encrypt the home directory...  but I wonder what happen if you need back ups or if the OS went down... how to recover or back up the data ? :o
[04:36] <scales11> jrib: so if i just install it, how do i tell ubuntu to use it when i want to compile something?
[04:36] <scales11> rather than the current gcc 4.4
[04:37] <jrib> scales11: obviously depends on how you are compiling something.  Most configre scripts will respect the CC=gcc-4.1.2 environment variable
[04:38] <raghu125coorg> scales11, what is your kernel version?
[04:38] <RukusX> What is the latest kernel for ubuntu? and why is mine set as 2.6.27-10-generic ?
[04:38] <jrib> RukusX: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[04:38] <scales11> well now i am installing 9.04
[04:38] <scales11> raghu125coorg: so i will be using the latest
[04:39] <jtaji> scales11: or you could use the alternatives system... sudo update-alternatives --config cc
[04:39] <RukusX> 9.04
[04:39] <scales11> jtaji: ?
[04:39] <Xcell> scales11-  i have 7.10 on another drive.. it works great.. but...youll love 9.04...trust me.
[04:39] <jtaji> scales11: it's an answer to your last question
[04:39] <jrib> !who | RukusX
[04:39] <jrib> RukusX: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:40] <scales11> Xcell: i do like 9.04 i run it on my laptop.  i am just trying to get this driver compiled and i couldnt do it by default with 9.04
[04:40] <Xcell> oh
[04:40] <Xcell> ok
[04:40] <willwade> Hi, does anyone know how to sort out missing bootmgr on a USB stick prepared with unetbootin?
[04:40] <jigp> hello guys moin. how to enable ssh?it says network error connection refused
[04:40] <jtaji> scales11: it will let you select the gcc version called by gcc when you have multiple versions installed
[04:40] <jrib> !ssh | jigp
[04:40] <RukusX> ok jrib thank you
[04:41] <raghu125coorg> scales11, why cannot you use kernel 2.6.18 by recompiling it. the driver is included in it.
[04:41] <Gofforth> jigp: sudo sshd should do it
[04:41] <RukusX> jrib, didnt do a thing
[04:41] <jrib> jigp: read what ubottu said, don't do "sudo sshd"...
[04:42] <scales11> raghu125coorg: the zd1211rw driver will not operate in master mode.  unlike zd1211b, which i need to create this access point
[04:42] <mudittuli> scunizi: thanks, dude :)

[04:48] <jrib> SunnyDP: you could upgrade to 9.04
[04:48] <madbuntu> is the claim that using a 64 bit ubuntu pointless because you'll never need more than 3 gigs of ram worth any merit?
[04:48] <jrib> RukusX: reboot

[04:48] <jrib> !ot | madbuntu
[04:48] <SunnyDP> jrib: no thanks :D
[04:48] <RukusX> should i try changing my repository to the main and reload maybe? first?
[04:48] <RukusX> jrib should i try changing my repository to the main and reload maybe? first?
[04:48] <ZykoticK9> madbuntu, if you get into VirtualBox as I have you can use a whole lot more then 3 GB
[04:48] <bishop> joining
[04:49] <jrib> RukusX: no
[04:49] <jrib> RukusX: you have the new kernel installed, you just haven't rebooted
[04:49] <RukusX> i've rebooted since any changes
[04:49] <RukusX> jrib i've rebooted since any changes
[04:49] <RukusX> jrib ok brb
[04:50] <SunnyDP> raghu125coorg: no go :( sorry man, it did not work
[04:50] <willwade> If I stick 4gigs of ram in a 32bit mythbox, can I push memory from the extra gig in to the onboard graphics or just from the 3gigs the OS uses?
[04:50] <jrib> SunnyDP: it's probably because a lot of that stuff wasn't implemented right away with early versions of gvfs.  If it happens with another fresh new user, then I'd pretty sure that's the reason
[04:50] <raghu125coorg> SunnyDP, problem is definitely due to gvfs
[04:51] <madbuntu> ZykoticK9: i just found that the compiz work arounds for my videocard dont work in 64
[04:51] <madbuntu> i only have four gigs
[04:51] <madbuntu> so im thinking about wiping.. one last time =P
[04:51] <raghu125coorg> SunnyDP, chek if you can restore it to working version
[04:51] <SunnyDP> jrib: raghu125coorg :gvfs :S ok thanks guys, can i re-install gvfs ?
[04:52] <jrib> SunnyDP: what would reinstalling do...?
[04:52] <SunnyDP> jrib: not sure, not even sure what gvfs does, i will have to see
[04:54] <BalthCat> Hi.  I'm a new user planning to dual boot XP and Ubuntu (as it seems best recommended for beginners) and I'm looking to figure out a good starting partition size before I install Windows and all that jazz.  The site recommended at least 10gb.  I really only need enough for the basics and "experimentation" room as my data will mostly be in yet another partition.
[04:54] <RukusX> jrib  that kernel is not even an option in my grub loader and i am still uname -r 2.6.27-10-generic
[04:54] <madbuntu> Balth what do you do with windows
[04:54] <BalthCat> And this particular laptop is only 80gb.  Should I stick with 10gb or do you think I could claw a few gb off?
[04:54] <BalthCat> madbuntu: It's all personal use.
[04:55] <madbuntu> just make the part as big as you need is what im trying to say
[04:55] <BalthCat> Like, just "stuff"
[04:55] <madbuntu> games?
[04:55] <BalthCat> Oh, I'm talking about the ubuntu partition.
[04:55] <BalthCat> Sorry.
[04:55] <jrib> RukusX: apt-cache policy linux-image-2.6.28-12-generic
[04:55] <madbuntu> ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[04:55] <madbuntu> yeah 10 gigs is plenty
[04:56] <madbuntu> go with even less if you want
[04:56] <BalthCat> madbuntu: Would I kick myself in the future if I enjoy (but don't go crazy over) Ubuntu, if I did say, 6gb instead?
[04:56] <madbuntu> nope
[04:56] <BalthCat> Ok, that's what I needed to know.  Thanks :)

[05:03] <SunnyDP> :D is it safe to delete everything in my /usr/src folder ? things are getting crowded in there :D
[05:03] <mib_leqp4rx9> SunnyDP: ok thanks and just so u know touchscreen sucks :P u would think it's cool and useful but it's not
[05:03] <Starcraftmazter> is there a channel for ubuntu wiki help?
[05:03] <RukusX> jrib whats the solution?
[05:04] <RukusX> jrib i left out all the commented # lines
[05:04] <barbarella2> SunnyDP:yes, it is
[05:05] <Starcraftmazter> hmm, how would I define an anchor in wikicode?
[05:05] <SunnyDP> barbarella2: thanks friend
[05:05] <ubuntunoobneedin> I am trying to extract a .rar and unrar is not showing up in synaptic what do i do
[05:05] <jrib> RukusX: ...
[05:05] <RukusX> jrib http://pastebin.ca/1438996
[05:05] <RukusX> ok so i left out too much
[05:06] <Starcraftmazter> nvm gotit
[05:06] <jrib> RukusX: I have to go now, read /usr/share/doc/grub/README.Debian.gz and figure out why update-grub isn't doing its job
[05:06] <RukusX> ugh
[05:06] <RukusX> i hate ubuntu
[05:06] <RukusX> never works right
[05:07] <RukusX> jrib thanks for all the help

[05:09] <adam_> anyone know how to kill all connections from a specific IP address ?
[05:10] <losher> adam_: what *kind* of connections? ssh? p2p? telnet? what?
[05:10] <adam_> http
[05:10] <Riez> Bandung
[05:10] <h22o> is it possible to use an external monitor with a laptop that has a closed lid?
[05:10] <adam_> or all protocols
[05:11] <ed_debian> h22o, I know this doesn't help much but yes.  It definitely is possible.  I don't know how :(
[05:11] <Gnea> h22o: yes.
[05:11] <h22o> ok i meant HOW do you do it?
[05:11] <Gnea> ed_debian: it's easy: hook the monitor up, close the lid ;)
[05:11] <ed_debian> lol
[05:11] <ed_debian> yeah
[05:11] <h22o> sounds easy
[05:11] <adam_> tcpkill?
[05:12] <Gnea> what are you getting stuck on?
[05:12] <h22o> but the screen blanks when the lid is closed
[05:12] <h22o> both screens
[05:12] <Gnea> then change the power saving settings
[05:12] <Gnea> System->Preferences->
[05:12] <h22o> i changed the close lid action to do nothing
[05:12] <h22o> but that still happens
[05:12] <Gnea> hrm
[05:12] <Gnea> did you logout/login?
[05:12] <hexoroid> when i login to my ubuntu it always asks me for console [console]:
[05:12] <losher> adam_: the only thing I can think of is to block them via a firewall...
[05:12] <h22o> Gnea: um let me try that
[05:13] <ed_debian> hexoroid, What do you mean it asks for console?
[05:13] <hexoroid> no idea
[05:13] <barbarella2> adam:iptables -A INPUT -s ipaddress -j DROP and iptables -A OUTPUT -s ipaddress -j DROP
[05:13] <hexoroid> as soonest i login it says console:
[05:13] <hexoroid> no idea what to type in
[05:13] <hexoroid> i tryed typing in xterm that didnt work
[05:14] <ed_debian> So run me through your boot process.  You turn on your computer.  It flashes bios and system specs and other nonsense...
[05:14] <adam_> k thanks
[05:14] <ed_debian> then what?
[05:14] <deathtech> Hello All
[05:14] <h22o> Gnea: nope same problem
[05:14] <FLJohn> While I was at work my system locked up again.
[05:14] <FLJohn> Here is the error from the syslog
[05:15] <Gnea> h22o: :/
[05:15] <FLJohn> May 28 19:39:44 john-desktop kernel: [44126.185163] [fglrx:drm_free] *ERROR* [driver] Excess frees:<PHONE_NUMBER> frees, -2147483648 allocs
[05:15] <h22o> Gnea: is this a bug
[05:15] <losher> adam_: also google cutter
[05:15] <Jasa> Some ATI driver bug i would assume, there are some xorg.conf settings out there to reduce lockups FLJohn.
[05:16] <Gnea> h22o: not sure... what's the make/model of your laptop?
[05:16] <ed_debian> hexoroid, Are you there still?
[05:16] <h22o> Gnea: its a dell inspiron 1545
[05:16] <Lamo> i updating my system to jaunty a month ago and then swapped the file system to ext4 and after reboot i get error 13 invalid or unsupported executable file system. I know have a livecd loaded and chrooted in to my system but i havent a clue of what to fix. also im not dual booting.
[05:16] <FLJohn> Jasa: I am new to Ubuntu/  How did you know that?
[05:17] <blacknred0> ...
[05:18] <ZykoticK9> FLJohn, Jasa knew because of the fglrx in the error - that's an ATI driver
[05:18] <FLJohn> Ok
[05:18] <blacknred0> .....
[05:19] <FLJohn> now I can look this crap up
[05:19] <FLJohn> Thank you thank you thank you
[05:20] <mamont> is there some official(ish) write-up on ensuring proper utf-8/i18n support?
[05:20] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Haven't really been following the conversation, but if you're having issues with freezing using an ATI card, you might look here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/348332
[05:20] <starkraving> Hi all, looking for help on X, have 9.04 on a dell inspiron notebook with external monitor... i want to add more options to the resolutions of the external monitor
[05:20] <Magilum> I just upgraded a System76 Darter Ultra to 9.04; it has an Intel graphics card and X is crashing as soon as it starts. alt-sysrq-k won't kill X; the only thing I can do is alt-sysrq-{reisub} to restart the system. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this or what's going on? There's a lot of stuff about Intel performance, but nothing about crashes.
[05:20] <h22o> so does anyone know a way to use an external monitor with a laptop with the lid closed?
[05:20] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: I had a similar problem and upgraded the kernel as suggested, and it fixed my issues.  If you're new to Ubuntu, upgrading the kernel might be a bit difficult, but there are instructions here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds
[05:21] <mamont> h22o: just keep it from going all suspendy when you close the lid, I suspect
[05:21] <RedSocrates> Anyway, read through all that, and enjoy -- that is, if I'm right that you were having freezing issues with an ATI card :)
[05:21] <h22o> it doesnt suspend; it just turns blank
[05:21] <ed_debian> h22o, It is blanking the screen which is a power-management feature
[05:22] <h22o> well how do i disable it?
[05:22] <Gnea> h22o: that is weird... perhaps you need to edit acpi configs in /etc
[05:22] <h22o> i mean
[05:22] <mamont> ordinarily you'd disable whatever you enabled, but since this was enabled for you :p you have to find out
[05:22] <FLJohn> RedSocrates: I had a problme with 9.04 64 when I downloaded it.  Let me read this.  Here is a screen shot from a few days ago.  I see that fglrx is in there too.
[05:22] <ed_debian> h22o, Well maybe it isn't a feature to you.  System -> preferences -> power management
[05:22] <h22o> blank only the laptop screen, not the external monitor
[05:22] <ed_debian> Its finicky though
[05:22] <shruthi> Help needed : HP DV2840SE  ubuntu x64  screen resolution problem
[05:22] <harpreet_> h22o: yes
[05:22] <scales11> ok i am trying to compile under 9.04, and i have installed gcc-4.1
[05:22] <Gnea> h22o: if it's blank on the laptop screen, when you close it, but not blank on the monitor, then it's working like it should
[05:23] <h22o> well the external monitor blanks as well

[05:23] <harpreet_> h22o: yes you can have external monitor working
[05:23] <Gnea> that's what I figured was happening
[05:23] <FLJohn> RedSocrates http://www.glorystock.com/Screenshot.png

[05:25] <Magilum> Can anyone help me debug X crashes on a 9.04 system with an intel card? I'm a fairly competent user, but I don't have an Intel card normally and I'm not sure where to go. xfix from the recover menu doesn't work, and X crashes if the driver is vesa or intel.
[05:25] <h22o> same problem
[05:25] <jtaji> scales11: yeah I was wrong, that would let you select among different compilers, but not among different gcc versions
[05:25] <Gnea> h22o: try it with sudo
[05:25] <shruthi> ty let be look ubottu
[05:25] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[05:25] <harpreet_> shruthi: what happens when you try changing resolution?
[05:25] <harpreet_> shruthi: what happens when you try changing resolution?
[05:25] <jtaji> scales11: I guess try setting the CC environment variable as jrib suggested before
[05:25] <shruthi> I can only see 800 x 600
[05:26] <Lamo> ok after much googling ive come to the conclusion that ext4 and jaunty is balls. Can anyone please point me to a link with a way to swap back to ext3 so i boot into my system, thanks.
[05:26] <shruthi> no 1024 x 768
[05:26] <h22o> still the same problem
[05:26] <scales11> jtaji: that was CC=gcc-4.1
[05:26] <FLJohn> Well I have a dual display nvidia card in my other computer.  Maybe I should use it.
[05:26] <harpreet_> shruthi: please refer by name other wise i cannot see your messages because i have to respond to other people too
[05:26] <scales11> jtaji: but where do i use that?
[05:26] <harpreet_> shruthi:  check your /etc/X11.xorg.conf file , pastebin the output
[05:26] <shruthi> harpreet : I cannot see 1024 x 768 in the resolution, I can see only 800 x 600
[05:27] <harpreet_> shruthi:  check your /etc/X11.xorg.conf file , pastebin the output
[05:27] <d0htem> backports are packages from intrepid that are not in jaunty. correct?
[05:27] <bastid_raZor> if i have a personalized motd how might i keep it from being overwritten on reboot?
[05:27] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Not too sure about fglrx, I can only confirm my suggestion works for me with the radeon driver.  Also, I'm on 32-bit, so not sure about 64
[05:27] <shruthi> Harpreet: Pastebin the output, I didnt understand, sorry I am from windows
[05:28] <RedSocrates> !pastebin | shruthi
[05:28] <harpreet_> shruthi: check at top left of your screen for PM
[05:28] <Gnea> h22o: sudo /etc/init.d/hal stop
[05:29] <jtaji> scales11: you could set it in your shell before you run the configure script
[05:29] <Lamo> ok after much googling ive come to the conclusion that ext4 and jaunty is balls. Can anyone please point me to a link with a way to swap back to ext3 so i boot into my system, thanks.
[05:29] <h22o> Gnea: nope hal isnt at fault
[05:29] <jtaji> scales11: another option would be changing the /usr/bin/gcc link to point to gcc-4.1 instead of gcc-4.3
[05:29] <Gnea> Lamo: no link needed, just pop the disk in an reinstall
[05:29] <ramontayag> hey all
[05:29] <jtaji> scales11: do 'ls -l /usr/bin/gcc' and you'll see what I mean
[05:30] <ramontayag> hey everyone. do i have to activate or install menu.lst after i edit it?
[05:30] <Lamo> Gnea, reinstall really? I dont think so tired of using that as a solution for every linux issue.
[05:30] <Gnea> h22o: cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode  what is the result?
[05:30] <harpreet_> ramontayag: no
[05:30] <scales11> jtaji: how to i point it to the older version?
[05:30] <h22o> Gnea: 0
[05:30] <Magilum> If I have "Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"" in my xorg.conf, the screen flashes black when I start X. If I don't, it has a corrupted image of the bootsplash screen.
[05:31] <bc> anyone know how I can make the time/weather gnome panel applet update more often?
[05:31] <Gnea> Lamo: *every* linux issue? I'm sorry, I have no idea what other issues you've had so far.
[05:31] <Gnea> Lamo: and what's wrong with ext4?
[05:31] <scales11> or just set it in my shell
[05:31] <FLJohn> HOw do I turn DRI off?
[05:31] <scales11> cause i only want it for this one compile
[05:31] <FLJohn> What is DRI?
[05:31] <Gnea> !laptop
[05:31] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: "The Direct Rendering Infrastructure, also known as the DRI, is a framework for allowing direct access to graphics hardware under the X Window System in a safe and efficient manner."
[05:32] <jtaji> scales11: export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-4.1
[05:32] <Lamo> Gnea, cant boot into my system. I get Error 13 invail or unsupported executable format
[05:32] <Lamo> *invalid
[05:32] <Gnea> Lamo: Error 13 from what? grub?
[05:32] <RedSocrates> As for disabling it, not sure
[05:32] <Lamo> Gnea, yep
[05:32] <Lamo> Gnea, I've chrooted into my install via a livecd and reinstalled grub with no success
[05:32] <tyler_d> I missed you all, whats up?
[05:33] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Maybe just commenting out the dri line in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, if you have one
[05:33] <unkmar> The moon?
[05:33] <FLJohn> RedSocrates:  Thank you.  I read a little further down that ther is a kernal fix, but I am using 8.04 64 not 9.04 64 Will that make a difference?
[05:33] <viena> Jakarta
[05:33] <Gnea> Lamo: give this a good check-over: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1104822&highlight=ext4
[05:34] <h22o> Gnea: turning laptop_mode on has no effect
[05:34] <Gnea> h22o: hmmm...
[05:34] <Lamo> Gnea, thanks
[05:35] <FLJohn>  RedSocrates:I am going to get a mainline Kernal through synaptic and see if this works.  Thank you for posting that thread.
[05:35] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Right, the kernel fix is what worked for me and my ATI problems, using the radeon driver.  But if you're using 8.04, it's very possible that you have a different bug than the one described there.  A mainline kernel upgrade shouldn't really *hurt*, though, if you want to try it... And if the kernel has issues, you can always boot the old kernel from GRUB.
[05:35] <h22o> Gnea: i think i found it: screen blanking is HARDCODED into /etc/acpi/lid.sh
[05:35] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: No problem, good luck.  Keep asking around if that doesn't fix anything, of course
[05:36] <Gnea> h22o: cool?
[05:36] <h22o> Gnea: so now what
[05:37] <FLJohn> RedSocrates: It is just that this is wierd.  I have no Idea what I am doing, but I really want to learn.  It has done this on two of the same barebones so it has to be that ATI driver.
[05:37] <deathtech>  I have an older machine that i installed ubuntu on, for the community support and other things, but was kind of wondering, for a machine running a 500 mhz proc, 184 MB'd of Ram, is there s more suitable , kinda tuned for low low end machines, but with high functionality like Ubuntu ?
[05:37] <Gnea> h22o: take a look at /etc/default/acpi-support

[05:37] <lucax> whats best chess game for ubuntu? im trying to find something like fritz 11 but no one is near and i cant play it on wine...
[05:38] <starkraving> Hi all, looking for help adding resolution options to the "Display" preferences for an external monitor. It shows options up to 1152 x 864, I want to set it at 1280 x 1024 so it matches the horizontal resolution of my primary screen
[05:38] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Incidentally, that bug report to which I linked you also shows how to disable DRI.  You want the line: Option "DRI" "off"
[05:38] <RedSocrates> in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, in your "Device" section
[05:38] <deathtech> Also, Ubuntu doesnt appear to have figured out the video hardware very well, and its stu ck in 800x600, whereas the native would be 1024x768
[05:38] <Gnea> !best | lucax
[05:38] <durt> deathtech, try a cli install of ubuntu and put LXDE on top of it.
[05:39] <mib_3qj9ogdg> why do i get couldnt open the x11 display ()! when i ssh into my desktop and do mplayer -vo xv "file"?
[05:39] <h22o> Gnea: theres no option to change lid screen blanking (its only for suspend)
[05:39] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Have you tried using the radeon drivers rather than fglrx?
[05:39] <h22o> Gnea: thanks for ur help :-)
[05:39] <Gnea> deathtech: Ubuntu requires at least 256MB of ram, although 384 or higher is preferred
[05:39] <deathtech> durt , interesting. Is there a particular site or configuration option to choose a command line install ?
[05:39] <durt> Gnea, I'm running on 96 MB
[05:40] <FLJohn> RedSocrates: I thought i was using radeon drivers
[05:40] <durt> deathtech, must be done from the alternative cd.
[05:40] <mib_3qj9ogdg> why do i get couldnt open the x11 display ()! when i ssh into my desktop and do mplayer -vo xv "file"?
[05:40] <a_user_> is there a live CD like gparted that will image the hard drive?
[05:40] <Gnea> h22o: np :) well, figured it was worth a shot... might want to try fiddling around with some option there
[05:41] <deathtech> durt , can i just do a sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop, then apt install lxde ?
[05:41] <durt> deathtech, yup
[05:41] <Gnea> durt: you're using which version of ubuntu and which wm? :)
[05:41] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: There are two drivers for ATI Radeon cards, one is fglrx and the other is radeon
[05:42] <durt> Gnea, 9.04, LXDE is based on openbox.
[05:42] <deathtech> durt, Awesome, anyway to figure out what my specific monitor settings are so i can correctly set them in xorg ? its a laptop , so its difficult to find the specs to begin with, much less one this old
[05:42] <lucax> #chriss
[05:42] <FLJohn> ok so how do I change it?
[05:42] <Gnea> durt: ah, okay - yeah, openbox will do it. I was referring to the standard ubuntu with gnome+metacity
[05:42] <paulina> how come the iwlist scan no longer works on ubuntu 9.04??
[05:42] <FLJohn>  RedSocrates: how do I change it?
[05:43] <durt> Gnea, nooooway not on this old peice of junk
[05:43] <Gnea> :)
[05:43] <deathtech> durt, like a deep query app that can probe the settings ?
[05:43] <a_user_> what about SystemRescueCd?
[05:43] <a_user_> anyone?
[05:44] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Well, first, can you put your /etc/X11/xorg.conf in a pastebin?
[05:44] <durt> deathtech, go a google for 'your lappy's product id and xorg'
[05:44] <paulina> how come the iwlist scan no longer works on ubuntu 9.04??
[05:44] <deathtech> durt, searched high and low, really not a lot of info for my specfic model
[05:44] <FLJohn> How do I find it?

[05:44] <FLJohn> RedSocrates: How do I find it?
[05:45] <scales11> jtaji: i am lost, how to i tell it to make with a speficif version of gcc?
[05:45] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: You should be able to open /etc/X11/xorg.conf in gedit
[05:45] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: And here's pastebin information
[05:45] <RedSocrates> !pastebin | FLJohn
[05:45] <deathtech> durt, i put quite  a bit of effort into it, trying different search symantics and things, and couldnt find anything on it, its a Compaq Presario 1600XL-145

[05:46] <deathtech> durt, for display info at least
[05:46] <durt> deathtech, what video chipset?
[05:46] <scales11> can i mask packages?
[05:47] <deathtech> durt, tried that one too, Trident Cyberblade i1
[05:49] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to get going, real life calls
[05:50] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Ask around, see if maybe someone will help you install the radeon drivers instead of fglrx.  Otherwise, you could try the kernel thing if you feel up for it
[05:50] <RedSocrates> FLJohn: Sorry to have to run out; good luck!

[05:56] <jamiejackson> okay, so that's wrong, then. thx, barbarella2. do i want to install to sde3 (my boot partition), or does it go on plain old sde?
[05:57] <jimlovell777> * I'm having trouble getting Ubuntu installed. I've verified the hard drive is not failing (ran the S.M.A.R.T. tests, and a full sector by sector scan), I've checksumed the burned image and all is well yet when "Installing base system" some packages exit "returned 1"
[05:57] <mgmuscari> hey, does anybody know of an xmms2 client that is suitable for network use? for example, i want to control the xmms2 daemon on my media server pc using a gui client on my laptop
[05:57] <mib_3qj9ogdg> hey can anyone help me the sound on my laptop doesnt work i have an HP tx2510us
[05:57] <harpreet_> jimlovell777: iso not good
[05:57] <mgmuscari> right now i'm using ssh w/ X tunneling to run exaile, but when i close exaile on here or shut down my laptop, the music on the media server will stop
[05:58] <durt> !sound > mib_3qj9ogdg
[05:58] <jimlovell777> harpreet_: I've verified the image and burned disc checksums, all three match.
[05:58] <zhoujingrui> same with my sound
[05:58] <harpreet_> jimlovell777: use dvd
[05:58] <shruthi> harpeet: Thank you very much, it worked
[05:58] <jimlovell777> harpreet_: What would the DVD do/have that the CD doesn't?
[05:59] <harpreet_> shruthi: no problems ,anytime
[05:59] <harpreet_> jimlovell777: speed
[05:59] <deathtech> durt, Thanks for the help though, its a rough one for this machine i beleive :p
[05:59] <mgmuscari> jimlovell777: what packages are failing to install?
[05:59] <deathtech> durt, not a ton of exp with xrandr, but no better time to learn, eh ?
[05:59] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:grub goes to the mbr on sda, if that is the first boot device set in your bios or have an other boot loader like XP
[06:00] <shruthi> harpreet: I have to use this command always everytime I boot to get internet connection
[06:00] <munch13> is there such thing as an open-source search engine?
[06:00] <shruthi> harpreet : rmmod b43 b44 ssb wl
[06:00] <shruthi> modprobe wl
[06:00] <shruthi> modprobe b44
[06:00] <harpreet_> shruthi: what do you have laptop or desktop?
[06:00] <shruthi> harpreet: Laptop
[06:00] <jimlovell777> mgmuscari: It varies, sometimes it's just a few seconds after the base system starts installing and several times everything works until it comes time to install the kernel image. The linux-kernel-image-generic is the only one that sticks out from my repeated attempts.
[06:00] <jamiejackson> barbarella2, my ide is showing last, but that's what i want to be booting from. so i need to reorder the drives in my bios?
[06:01] <harpreet_> shruthi:  i am assuming it asks you for wireless keyring to unlock, correct?
[06:01] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:yes
[06:01] <mgmuscari> jimlovell777: how much ram is in this system? i had some problems installing on a system with only 1GB
[06:01] <jimmy_> hey guys, i'm trying to install all the xfce plugins, but apt-get xfce4*plugins is not working... any ideas?
[06:01] <jamiejackson> munch13: lucene is a java one, there are prob others
[06:01] <shruthi> harpreet: if I dont run those commands even my wireless is not enabled at all
[06:02] <jimlovell777> mgmuscari: Less than 1GB, would enabling the swap partition before installation help?
[06:02] <deathtech> jimmy_, Try sudo apt-get install xfce4-plugins  without an asterisk
[06:02] <shruthi> harpreet: Yes also asks for key ring after that
[06:02] <harpreet_> shruthi: what card do you have, please paste
[06:02] <jimmy_> ahh, good call
[06:02] <mgmuscari> jimlovell777: probably not, but IIRC there is a low-memory install mode
[06:02] <shruthi> harpreet: broadcom 4328
[06:03] <mgmuscari> jimlovell777: i don't know for certain, but i think the installer may take a pessimistic approach and load a whole lot of driver modules to try to get all the hardware working
[06:03] <harpreet_> shruthi: i'll have to rush to work in 10 mins, i'll surely help you with it if it doesnt get solvedb
[06:03] <jimmy_> deathtech, there is no xfce4-plugins metapackage
[06:03] <shruthi> no problem
[06:03] <jimlovell777> mgmuscari: IIRC? I using the alternate install cd, does it have the low RAM option?
[06:03] <shruthi> see you around
[06:03] <deathtech> jimmy_, HAve you tried searching synaptic  ?
[06:03] <shruthi> have a good day
[06:03] <mgmuscari> (if i recall correctly)
[06:03] <jimmy_> yeah, here let me show you some examples
[06:03] <harpreet_> shruthi: we can try something in the mean time
[06:04] <mgmuscari> jimlovell777: i'm not certain about that. look for advanced options when you load the disc
[06:04] <shruthi> harpreet: no problem
[06:04] <harpreet_> jimlovell777: burn it on DVD it will work for sure
[06:04] <jimlovell777> mgmuscari: Ahh, well thanks for mentioning it, that has to be what the problem is, the drive and all other hardware plus the disc is in working order. Seems like my issue is low RAM releated.
[06:04] <deathtech> jimmy_, if not , in gnome hit System-> Administration -> Synaptic PAckage Manager
[06:05] <mgmuscari> jimlovell777: it's highly possible. a lot of people have problems with low ram while installing ubuntu
[06:05] <shruthi> harpreet: Thanks and Bye
[06:05] <harpreet_> shruthi: you might need, madwifi or ndiswapper
[06:05] <jimmy_> deathtech, here are some examples: xfce4-screenshooter-plugin
[06:05] <jimmy_> xfce4-datetime-plugin       xfce4-sensors-plugin                   xfce4-session... can't imagine why xfce4*plugin wouldn't install all of those for me
[06:06] <deathtech> jimmy_, Just search for " xfce4 plugin " in Synaptic
[06:06] <deathtech> jimmy_, Minus the quotes
[06:06] <jimmy_> i know i can do that... i'm just puzzled why apt-get isn't handling my wildcards :)
[06:06] <jimmy_> i'll do that now though
[06:07] <panzor> anyone know what channel can help me with a problem with my root shell prompt. Things go wrong when I hit "up" to go to a previous command. Only happens as root.
[06:07] <starkraving> Can anyone tell me how to add a resolution option to an external monitor? My xorg.conf is basically empty, I guess it's Ubuntu trying to "do the right thing"...
[06:07] <dian> BNJV
[06:07] <starkraving> In the "Display" preferences dialog I have resolution options up to 1152 wide, I want it to go up to 1280
[06:07] <panzor> starkraving, what type of videocard do you have, please say nvidia
[06:08] <starkraving> panzor, thanks... it's ati radeon of course
[06:08] <panzor> starkraving, things will be harder, but you could poke around with aticonfig and use internet help pages with that
[06:09] <nicks007> Hi , is there any way to install new fonts ?
[06:09] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo dmidecode -t 2; ... Base Board Information ...' What is a 'base board'?
[06:09] <starkraving> Everything is working fine, I have all the visual effects enabled, just for some reason one day I started up and it only had resolutions up to 1152
[06:09] <mgmuscari> hmmm
[06:09] <mobi-sheep> What filesystem would be most preferable on netbook?
[06:09] <panzor> nicks007, what kind of founts
[06:09] <mgmuscari> if i have some program in a tar.gz
[06:09] <panzor> fonts*
[06:09] <mgmuscari> can i use dpkg to install it using the package manager?
[06:09] <starkraving> I'm not using any proprietary drivers at all right now
[06:09] <nicks007> text fonts..
[06:09] <panzor> nicks007, .ttf maybe?
[06:09] <mobi-sheep> !font | nicks007
[06:09] <starkraving> Apparently my radeon's drivers aren't supported in 9.04
[06:10] <jamiejackson> barbarella2: i'm not finding the trick for making my ide drive (as opposed to the satas) sda. i'll reboot again and enter the bios...
[06:10] <nicks007> how can i do that ? please tell me in detail.
[06:10] <panzor> starkraving, ah, sucks. I've been running 8.04 for a while and love it. It's supported for longer than 9.04 anyway :P
[06:11] <nicks007> how can i add new fonts into existing font library ?
[06:11] <panzor> jamiejackson, shouldn't IDE drives come up as hda instead?
[06:11] <jamiejackson> i think that changed in jaunty, panzor
[06:12] <ReggieLove> Does anyone know how i can get rythmbox music player to sort the library by 'album artist' not just 'artist'
[06:12] <pintook> I need a programme to format pendrives & others on Ubuntu 9.0.4
[06:12] <jamiejackson> barbarella2: i'm in the bios, where do i change the order so my ide is sda?
[06:12] <panzor> jamiejackson, that's how linux distros do it that I've been a part of. hda is ide, sda is sata
[06:13] <panzor> nicks007, put the .ttf files in /usr/share/truetype/ I think
[06:13] <panzor> then restart the program you're using
[06:13] <RKR> Hi, Every one I need A help
[06:13] <panzor> and it should appear...maybe
[06:13] <eric__> pintook, have you tried gparted?
[06:13] <jamiejackson> sda for even ide is what i've read happened in jaunty, panzor, and that's what i'm seeing too
[06:13] <pintook> no
[06:13] <panzor> jamiejackson, I don't see the point
[06:13] <nicks007> ok let me try
[06:13] <oh_noes> Is /tmp mounted as swap?
[06:13] <pintook> no eric
[06:13] <panzor> oh_noes, no
[06:13] <pintook> no eric
[06:13] <eric__> Go install it, I think it should work
[06:13] <kerebrus> Hey guys, I installed a deb file from nvidia.com for my gpu and now my vid card is not working properly is there away to revert back to the original drivers?
[06:14] <Myrtti> jamiejackson: ubuntuu moved from sda/hda separation ages ago
[06:14] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:look for boot priority in the bios and select the ide
[06:14] <oh_noes> panzor: it it just a physical directory on the / file system?
[06:14] <jamiejackson> panzor: the point of hd* becoming sd* for IDEs? i dunno, i didn't write it ;-)
[06:14] <pronoy> kerebus: just install the recommended drivers
[06:14] <RKR> Hi Anybody tell my how to make live CD of ubuntu with our own Softwares that we need?
[06:14] <panzor> oh_noes, yeah, it gets erased every time you boot - like the recycle bin on a windows machine, only it gets cleaned up on reboot :P
[06:14] <pronoy> kerebrus: just install the recommended drivers
[06:15] <kerebrus> pronoy: that doesn't fix the problem
[06:15] <pronoy> kerebrus: what gpu are you using
[06:15] <eric__> RKR, do you mean you want a Live CD with non-included software installed?
[06:15] <kerebrus> nvidia gforce fx5200
[06:15] <barbarella2> panzor:no, hda is something from the old kernels, all are sd now
[06:16] <losher> RKR: I found something on the first hit on google for 'make live CD of ubuntu'
[06:16] <panzor> kerebrus, did you try reinstalling the nvidia driver you had previously?
[06:16] <nicks007> panzor, i dont have the directory trutype in /usr/share
[06:16] <mobi-sheep> RKR: I generally keep a list of to-be-install and to-be-purged packages in a textpad.  You can use that as script.
[06:16] <panzor> barbarella2, oh really? Hmm I guess that would explain why slackware calls these hda ;P
[06:16] <kerebrus> panzor: the driver before was from the default install of ubuntu and I dont know where that driver is located or how to remove the one that is currently installed
[06:17] <jamiejackson> barbarella2: my boot priority goes 1st floppy, dvd, then the IDE i want, then "nvidia boot agent" then "2-nvidia boot agent"
[06:17] <mobi-sheep> What filesystem would be most preferable on netbook?
[06:17] <panzor> nicks007: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/    sorry
[06:17] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:that should be ok
[06:18] <jamiejackson> barbarella2: but i didn't change it. that's what it's *been* set on, and the ide comes up dead last (sde)
[06:18] <eric__> Does anyone know where I could go to learn how Ubuntu (or Linux in general) works, as an OS? (ie. the different components, such as the kernel, daemons, servers, hardware interfaces, etc.)
[06:18] <panzor> kerebrus: get it from nvidia. The installation with get rid of most of the previous things, but I had errors until I did some radical cleaning out. Look at all of the things you have installed with "nvidia" in front of them and uninstall. EVen the kernel one. Then run the sh script they give you after turning off gdm
[06:19] <panzor> eric__: slackware lol
[06:19] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:how many drives you got?
[06:19] <losher> jamiejackson: disk naming happens during boot up when the disks are probed. That's a separate issue to which disk the bios tries to boot from. To rename the disks, you'd have to change the cabling, as far as I know...
[06:19] <RKR> eric__: losher: Friends First of all i explain my needs , I have installed ubuntu9.04 in my system and i have a live CD From ubuntu. my need is that i want to create a ubuntu installation disk with live CD support with my own languages and with mp3 codecs and other some softwares and i have to distribute it to my friends. pls guide me!
[06:19] <jamiejackson> barbarella2: and i don't know if it's relevant, but the IDE also shows up as the first primary IDE master, with the CDROM in second place, and the satas in 3,4,5, and 6th place
[06:19] <bc> f-spot must be seriously fubar under the hood if I can consistently make it crash just by clicking on a menu item.
[06:20] <pintook> bye
[06:20] <losher> RKR: See make your own live CD on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD
[06:20] <jamiejackson> losher: can't do much about cabling changes, since my desired boot is ide, and my others are sata
[06:20] <kerebrus> panzor: so go into synaptic and remove all nvidia entries?
[06:21] <jamiejackson> barbarella2: 1 ide (my desired boot), and 4 satas that i intend to raid5
[06:21] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:so you want to have the mbr on the ide drive
[06:21] <panzor> kerebrus: yeah, lemme see if I can remember the ones I did. It looked pretty scary, I remember. One of those "cross yoru fingers and hope that random forum poster knew what he was talking about ><" moments
[06:21] <eric__> panzor, do you mean install Slackware?
[06:21] <losher> jamiejackson: then you're stuck with whatever naming scheme the kernel comes up with. You should still be able to boot from the ide disk though
[06:21] <jamiejackson> yes, barbarella2
[06:21] <kerebrus> panzor: lol
[06:21] <ubntunovice> ##beginners-help @ irc.freenode.net
[06:21] <panzor> eric__: being able to run slackware and customize it thoroughly will get you all the knowledge you need to succeed as a linux user, in my opinion
[06:22] <jamiejackson> okay, so i'll use sde when i get to the advanced install options for the bootloader location
[06:22] <foreplay> ???DCC SEND "irc.bluenzo.net_join #main_thx" 0 0 0?
[06:22] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:and grub starts?
[06:22] <jamiejackson> barbarella2: and it goes on sde proper, right, not in a partition (sde2)?
[06:22] <panzor> kerebrus: here we go
[06:22] <eric__> panzor, Ok, I guess I'll try that, thanks!
[06:22] <jamiejackson> ...because that's where the mbr is?
[06:22] <henryo> could someone please tell me what a good virus scanner is for ubuntu and how to run it?
[06:23] <panzor> kerebrus: at a term type "dpkg -l | grep nvidia"
[06:23] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:but you can boot your system?
[06:23] <losher> eric__: there's also linux from scratch. The book was good as I recall...
[06:23] <panzor> eric__: no prob, and good luck!
[06:23] <panzor> losher: lol oh boy. We'll tell him that if he comes back for more xP
[06:23] <RKR> Friends First of all i explain my needs , I have installed ubuntu9.04 in my system and i have a live CD From ubuntu. my need is that i want to create a ubuntu installation disk with live CD support with my own languages and with mp3 codecs and other some softwares and i have to distribute it to my friends. pls guide me!
[06:23] <eric__> henryo, you must have tried pretty hard to find a virus for ubuntu
[06:23] <jamiejackson> barbarella2: i'm only booting from livecd at this point, as it's the install that i've been asking the questions about. does that answer your question?
[06:24] <losher> panzor: I think slackware will keep him busy for a while :-)
[06:24] <panzor> kerebrus: probably gonna see three things: "nvidia-glx-new" "nvidia-kernel-common" "nvidia-settings"
[06:24] <henryo> no, i don't have one, i just want some software to make sure my computer is clean
[06:24] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo dmidecode -t 2; ... Base Board Information ...' What is a 'base board'?
[06:24] <tomoyuki28jp> From ubuntu 9.04, openoffice command disappeared.  I'm not sure if you need to get rid of nvidia-settings, but I didn't test the fates, so I don't suggest you do too :P.
[06:24] <barbarella2> jamiejackson:then sde should be fine
[06:25] <jamiejackson> okeydoke, thanks for the help, barbarella2
[06:25] <bullgard4> tomoyuki28jp: Alternative to what?
[06:25] <Ron586> Can someone tell me the string to find out what my pc's ip address is?
[06:25] <eric__> RKR, try this link: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html
[06:25] <ed2ef> RKR, search on google for "how to remaster ubunu"
[06:25] <kerebrus> panzor: ive wiped everything but nvdia binary xorg driver
[06:25] <jamiejackson> ifconfig, Ron586
[06:25] <tomoyuki28jp> bullgard4: To start openoffice. (I mainly use Impless).
[06:25] <losher> bullgard4: I think it's just another way of saying motherboard...
[06:26] <eric__> Ron586, ifconfig
[06:26] <Ron586> jamiejacson: Thank-you
[06:26] <unop_> tomoyuki28jp,  ooffice  or  soffice
[06:26] <panzor> kerebrus: hmm, I don't have that package - dont' recognize it either. I'd say keep that, and if you have problems can it, then try again. After backing htat one up, actually. Sounds...important haha.
[06:26] <Ron586> eric_:Thank you
[06:26] <bullgard4> Ron586: 'ip addr'
[06:26] <unop_> bullgard4, base board would mean the mother board.
[06:26] <tomoyuki28jp> unop_: yeah, soffice is the one, thanks!
[06:27] <andrzej6b> b
[06:27] <bullgard4> losher, unop_ Thank you.
[06:27] <panzor> kerebrus: now grab the linux drivers from the site - I think 185.xx.xx is the latest beta - it works for me. Then hit ctrl-alt-1 and type "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" to stop gdm. Then "sh NVIDIA-blah blah"
[06:27] <panzor> kerebrus: might want to write down that /etc/init.d command
[06:28] <ed2ef> t
[06:28] <panzor> h
[06:28] <eric__> panzor: do you have to purchase Slackware?
[06:28] <panzor> eric__: nope. Oldest surviving linux distro and always been free :P
[06:29] <ed2ef> u dont need to buy slackware, just go to the official website and download it
[06:29] <losher> eric__: also check out http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/
[06:29] <panzor> losher: you're evil you know that
[06:30] <joetheodd> I've got a BrookTree BT878. What's a good program to use for TV tuning with it?
[06:30] <eric__> panzor: where can I download an .iso for a Slackware install CD?  People seed that thing like mad - definitely faster than the mirrors
[06:30] <dsnyders> Quick c question.   outb(argv[0], base); complains about making an integer from a pointer.  How do I pass just a single byte?
[06:31] <losher> Myrtti: I forgive myself...
[06:31] <raburnes> I had some really large mail.log files built up (multiple gb) so I deleted it and restarted the mail server, but the space appears to have not been reclaimed and now the mail server (postfix) only logs to syslog... is there something I can do to safely empty a log file that is in use?
[06:31] <eric__> OH ok thanks guys
[06:31] <joetheodd> eric__, just click get slack on the side. They give direct downloads and torrents. The order option just is a donation + shiny CD
[06:31] <eric__> I wasn't seeing it
[06:31] <panzor> Myrtti: by learning slackware, he can be more equip to help ubuntu ;P
[06:31] <Myrtti> losher, panzor: I've got no smilies left for this thread of conversation, move on.
[06:33] <panzor> Myrtti's getting a little offtopic methinks >_>
[06:33] <joetheodd> I've got a BrookTree BT878. What's a good program to use for TV tuning with it?
[06:33] <joetheodd> I think panzor is kinda offtopic, do you agree Myrtti
[06:33] <losher> panzor: how come the people who I see doing the least amount of support are always the quickest to criticize?
[06:34] <panzor> losher: I know right, I've helped at least 4-5 people since I walked in and haven't gotten help with my stupid root bashrc question. Though, I haven't renewed the question admittedly
[06:35] <losher> panzor: I'll have a go. What's your question?
[06:35] <bastidrazor> panzor; use sudo instead of being root
[06:35] <panzor> bastidrazor: hell no
[06:35] <coz_> panzor,  what are you trying to do that you need root?
[06:35] <eric__> losher, panzor: Thanks for the Linux from Scratch link, guys, I just found my project for the Summer! =)
[06:36] <Myrtti> panzor: you've enabled the root account?
[06:36] <panzor> losher: when I'm in root "sudo su -" when I press up, text sticks to the first few characters, then continues going up with those previous character stuck...it's hard to describe
[06:36] <Myrtti> panzor: have you tried to get to root prompt by sudo -i?
[06:36] <losher> eric__: I cheated. I read the book but didn't do the actual work, You learn tons, though, lots of applicable to Ubuntu
[06:36] <panzor> Myrtti: hmm, didn't know that, thanks
[06:37] <Myrtti> panzor: also, what's your shell, have you tried others, and what about your terminal?
[06:37] <panzor> Myrtti: thought the problem still exists
[06:37] <kerebrus> panzor: installing the latest drivers for my card from nvidia didnt go well.
[06:37] <coz_> kerebrus,   how did you do it?
[06:37] <panzor> kerebrus: humbug, what were the errors if any
[06:37] <losher> panzor: I know what you mean, presumably a bug in the readline library. No idea of the cure, sorry...
[06:37] <kerebrus> panzor "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. "
[06:38] <panzor> nah, there's no way. I'm pretty sure I just messed up when I was making my root shell be red text
[06:38] <panzor> kerebrus: when you installed the nvidia driver, were you in the same kernel as you booted up the first time?
[06:38] <macvr> hi all....... does anyone know how to get the acer orbicam to work?
[06:39] <coz_> kerebrus,  but did you download the driver from nvidia's site or use  sytem/administrations/hardware drivers??
[06:39] <coz_> macvr,  did you install an applications like camorama  to view the video?
[06:39] <Myrtti> panzor: it might be that you've got some unicode or other mixup in your config file for the shell then...
[06:40] <panzor> Myrtti: mind if I post a pastebin to my gross root's .bashrc?
[06:40] <losher> joetheodd: none of the tv apps are great. I've used tvtime in the past...
[06:40] <topgun21> Myrtti: shouldn't panzor  have utf 9 as jhis default language?
[06:40] <macvr> coz_: no...it didnt work in hardy and i stopped looking into it... is camorama in the repos?
[06:40] <topgun21> Myrtti: shouldn't panzor  have utf 8 as his default ansi language?
[06:40] <joetheodd> losher, i decided to jfgi and found tvtime. installing atm
[06:41] <coz_> macvr, yes it is as well as other apps like it I think even pidgin works also
[06:41] <coz_> macvr,   camorama will be a quick test for the cam though
[06:41] <ReggieLove> does anyone know if i can get Rythmbox media player to sort by 'album artist' instead of 'artist' ?
[06:42] <panzor> http://pastebin.com/m537c8c54
[06:42] <macvr> coz_: running install....
[06:42] <Myrtti> topgun21: yes, but depending on his language settings there might be a dead key or something there messing it
[06:42] <hskill> is the virtual terminal you see when you press ctrl+alt+F1, considered a "terminal emulator"?
[06:42] <panzor> ReggieLove: I dont' know the answer, but I'm curious to know why you want to do this and what hte difference is
[06:42] <coz_> macvr,   plug in the cam right before you start camorama
[06:42] <ReggieLove> panzor, some albums have multiple artists and it makes the library confusing
[06:43] <macvr> coz_: its a built in webcam... it says did not detect
[06:43] <coz_> macvr,   ok which system manufacturer
[06:43] <losher> joetheodd: see also http://www.uhlala.it/technology/linux-ati-fglrx-and-tvtime/
[06:43] <macvr> coz_: logitech
[06:44] <topgun21> macvr: Have you installed the usb video driver for linux?
[06:44] <coz_> macvr,  hold on
[06:44] <panzor> ReggieLove: ah, I just strip all of the artists from techno albums and rename the whole album's artists the most notorious one otherwise :/. Defeinitely a workaround. I'd say for you to let me know if you figure it out but....my hopes are low for us meeting again >_>
[06:44] <macvr> topgun21: its a built-in one... wait i'll check
[06:45] <ReggieLove> panzor: yeah that would work i guess but there are a lot of them haha, yeah good point
[06:46] <panzor> ReggieLove: I rename ID3 tags a bunch at a time with Ex Falso. I think you can select a whole album at a time and rename them that way too, in rhythmbox
[06:46] <onexused> Where are the packages and package lists downloaded with apt-get stored?
[06:46] <Piratero> hello
[06:46] <macvr> topgun21: what is the exact package name?
[06:46] <nomad77> panzor: try adding this in dot bashrc  http://www.pastebin.ca/1439081 for red root prompt
[06:46] <losher> hskill: yes, they're all terminal emulators these days, as almost no-one has an actual, real terminal any more
[06:46] <Piratero> i have the following options in my /etc/xorg.conf file: Option         "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps,grp:alt_shift_toggle"
[06:47] <Piratero> this by pressing alt+shift+a, i can switch between 2 different keyboard layouts
[06:47] <panzor> nomad77: oh it's red, it just has errors when I search through history with "up"
[06:47] <Piratero> is there another way i can switch layouts through the commandline?
[06:47] <Myrtti> panzor: hrmhm, I must say it's most curious. I personally use zsh and not had any problems with the colours...
[06:47] <topgun21> macvr: System >> administration >> Synaptic Package manager and search for usbvideo
[06:47] <Piratero> i tried looking into xset
[06:47] <nomad77> panzor: oh sorry
[06:47] <panzor> nomad77: no prob, I appreciate the attention :)
[06:47] <bc> onexused: I believe in /var/cache/apt and /var/lib/apt
[06:48] <ReggieLove> panzor: thanks ill try one of those
[06:48] <onexused> bc: Thanks, that looks like what I'm looking for.
[06:48] <Nom-> Anyone know what the current range of SSD's are like?  I'm seeing some claiming 1.5 million hours MTBF, which seems awfully high to me
[06:49] <coz_> Nom-,   yep intel's  clain 2,000,000 hours
[06:49] <coz_> claim
[06:49] <samrocksc> is there a channel dedicated to finding hardware, I'm having some problems finding my webcam on my laptop.
[06:49] <bc> onexused: be sure to wear a safari hat and bring along a monocle, good luck
[06:49] <macvr> topgun21: IS IT "W3CAM"?
[06:49] <macvr> coz_: any ideas?
[06:49] <Joker_iz_Sik> any one know what is the best open source typing program to help with speed and accuracy ??
[06:49] <AdmAckbar> anyone have netbook remix on an eeepc 901?
[06:50] <bc> onexused: if you want to clear old packages out, apt-get clean (I think)
[06:50] <coz_> macvr,   I am looking now   do you have an exact model for that webcam?
[06:50] <topgun21> onexused: Apt keps iit archives in /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:50] <onexused> bc: I don't have to know a whole lot about what's there, just share it so I don't have to download packages twice.
[06:50] <panzor> Joker_iz_Sik: I saw one in add/remove years ago, but I dunno if it's any good or if it still exists >_>
[06:50] <onexused> topgun21: Thanks.  bc said the same thing.
[06:50] <topgun21> onexused: Apt keeps its archives in /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:50] <Joker_iz_Sik> what was the name of it panzor ??
[06:51] <joetheodd> losher, im an nvidea man so i think im in the clear
[06:51] <Nom-> 1.5m hours is a bloody long time... if they're really likely to last even half that time with 24/7 usage, then I'm very tempted to go get one
[06:51] <dthacker> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=554333
[06:51] <joetheodd> losher, not to mention compiz stands against my entire reason for using linux (efficiency).. as does KDE :P
[06:51] <coz_> Nom-,  intel's also has a utility built in for isolating bad blocks if they s hould  occur
[06:51] <dthacker> Joker_iz_Sik: try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=554333
[06:51] <macvr> coz_: how do i grep the cam id? i'm not able to find it...
[06:51] <coz_> Nom-,  righ now intels' or  fusion-io drives
[06:52] <coz_> macvr,   which model of laptop
[06:52] <losher> joetheodd: the interesting part was that he used vlc and mplayer as tuning apps and liked mplayer best. Just a suggestion if you don't like tvtime...
[06:52] <lucax> hwo can i change the notify pop up of jaunty?
[06:52] <panzor> joetheodd: yeah right, you just hate compiz cause it messes with wine don't you!
[06:52] <losher> joetheodd: p.s. totally agree about compiz & kde.
[06:52] <joetheodd> panzor, i hate compiz cause it doesn't work with my video card. :P
[06:52] <macvr> coz_: Acer Aspire 5672 WLMi, from the aspire 5670 series
[06:52] <bc> onexused: for future reference, inspecting information like that in the future can possibly be done with strace
[06:52] <panzor> losher: I think we would be good friends
[06:53] <joetheodd> panzor, i wouldn't use it anyways, but if i needed a good reason.. :P
[06:53] <panzor> joetheodd: I know a WoW-head when I see one
[06:53] <onexused> bc: I'll keep that in mind.
[06:53] <joetheodd> panzor, good call. :P
[06:53] <mobi-sheep> joetheodd: The appropriate response would be "I hate my video card because it does not work with compiz" :)
[06:53] <losher> panzor: cool. I'm often here in the evenings (pacific time)...
[06:53] <bc> onexused: here is a quick tutorial for the bookmarks -> http://www.hokstad.com/5-simple-ways-to-troubleshoot-using-strace.html
[06:53] <joetheodd> mobi-sheep, I hate my video card cause it's an MX4000 and is older than my grandma.
[06:54] <pccc> Hey, how come in GParted the "resize" option is disabled for my /dev/sda1 partition (filesystem ext3)?
[06:54] <macvr> coz_: found it... Bus 001 Device 016: ID 046d:0892 Logitech, Inc. OrbiCam
[06:54] <nibsa1242> can someone help me figure out how to search my hard drive for all jpg ( or JPG ) files created within the last month? I'm missing some pictures and can't seem to find them
[06:55] <nibsa1242> pccc: is /dev/sda1 currently mounted?
[06:55] <coz_> macv  ok hold on
[06:55] <pccc> nibsa1242: yes
[06:55] <coz_> macvr,   ok hold on
[06:55] <onexused> When I run a graphical program (say, gcalctool) on my Ubuntu-9.04 machine over ssh from this machine (gentoo), the waiting and text selection cursors are huge.  This doesn't happen when the program's running on my other Ubuntu (8.10) machine.  How do I fix this?
[06:55] <nibsa1242> pccc: unmount it first
[06:55] <dthacker> nibsa: use find
[06:55] <panzor> pccc: can't mess with partitions that are mounted
[06:55] <panzor> pccc: get the .iso of gparted and boot that
[06:55] <pccc> panzor: ah, ic
[06:55] <pccc> thanks
[06:55] <nibsa1242> pccc: use the live cd
[06:55] <panzor> no prob :)
[06:55] <panzor> keep the disk too, I still use the first one I burned
[06:56] <dthacker> find / -name "*.jpg" -ctime +30 -print          or something similar
[06:56] <nibsa1242> dthacker: thanks, I'll go rtfm and figure out what I need to tell it to do...
[06:56] <panzor> piper is now known as MasterofDisguise
[06:56] <endtask89> how can i get live online webcam? i want to chat with video but i do not know how to do it.
[06:57] <panzor> endtask89: have you tried skype?
[06:57] <endtask89> nope panzor
[06:57] <losher> dthacker: -30 (within the last 30 days)  +30 (more than 30 days old) or did I get it backwards?
[06:57] <bc> dthacker: that's created 30 days or more ago, and will exclude, for example, yesterday's jpegs
[06:57] <panzor> endtask89: fumble with that for a while - pretty sure you'll succeed :)
[06:58] <dthacker> bc: yes that's true,  I'm used to looking for old junk to delete
[06:58] <coz_> macvr,   I am having no luck finding a way to get this to work   I have seen a few posts about the difficulty with it but it was referring to earlier version of ubuntu
[06:58] <peepsalot> is there much difference between .debs made for one Ubuntu release vs another (ex. jaunty vs karmic)?
[06:58] <foureight84> what's a light weight simple version control alternative to svn? i only need to use this with one other person on my team
[06:58] <coz_> macvr,  still looking though
[06:58] <bc> dthacker: :D
[06:58] <endtask89> panzor : how about i want to chat with someone using yahoo!? can webcam?
[06:58] <macvr> coz_: me too...
[06:58] <Flannel> peepsalot: dependency versions can cause issues.
[06:58] <panzor> endtask89: ehh, sadly I'm pretty sure nooo - but you could get lucky! I know from personal experience that googletalk doesn't work...though that was a bit ago.
[06:59] <endtask89> i like ubuntu but that software and this kind of function wont work.. sad... panzor
[06:59] <mute> hallo
[06:59] <pccc> losher: -30 is within the last 30 days
[07:00] <peepsalot> Flannel, i see
[07:00] <dthacker> foureight84: some folks like git and bazaar
[07:00] <panzor> endtask89: yar, it's a shame we dont' get thought of while this stuff is developed
[07:00] <onexused> When I run a graphical program (say, gcalctool) on my Ubuntu-9.04 machine over ssh from this machine (gentoo), the waiting and text selection cursors are huge.  This doesn't happen when the program's running on my other Ubuntu (8.10) machine.  How do I fix this?
[07:00] <mobi-sheep> !info ekiga
[07:01] <foureight84> hmm dthacker is there a small self-contained version? like one just for yourself
[07:01] <endtask89> panzor: what else i want to ask...im very new in ubuntu. :)
[07:01] <bc> foureight84: you'll probably love git
[07:01] <dthacker> foureight84: not sure.  I just use svn for my personal stuff.
[07:02] <losher> foureight84: depends on the requirements. If it's just a few files, rcs. If there are directories too, cvs. If you need directory versioning, svn/git. And backup, backup, backup...
[07:02] <panzor> endtask89: shoot, tex
[07:02] <hskill> if someone says "open a tty" does that mean a virtual console via ctrl+alt+FN since those use /dev/tty, and gui terminal windows like xterm and gnome terminal use /dev/pts?
[07:02] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: Do you have webcam?  It does work -- Try cheese.
[07:02] <endtask89> panzor: almost all software we can download from add/remove?
[07:02] <dthacker> foureight84: amen on the backup, backup, backup
[07:02] <foureight84> hehe
[07:02] <coz_> macvr,  sorry guy I have not found a solution for you...hopefully someone else here has a bit more experience with webcams than I do
[07:02] <foureight84> i will look into these thanks guys
[07:02] <endtask89> mobi-sheep: i tried cheese..it works..but i want online chat webcam
[07:03] <panzor> endtask89: the common, big stuff, yeah. Synaptic package has everything, and the internet has the rest...of everything haha.
[07:03] <foureight84> how about something with a gui to show code changes?
[07:03] <foureight84> i'm looking at smartsvn client for svn
[07:03] <macvr> coz_: thanx... stupid webcam, doesnt work properly in windows too! thanx anyway ... i'll keep looking :)
[07:03] <bc> foureight84: most have guis available (i know git and svn do)
[07:04] <foureight84> ah awesome... okay i'll look into it rather than asking mundane questions
[07:04] <dthacker> foureight84: in a work environment I've used ViewVCS which runs on apache (and possibly others)
[07:04] <panzor> foureight84:I remember searching for a gui for svn, but then read the manpage and had an easier time in terminal
[07:04] <panzor> than I did with the gui*
[07:04] <coz_> macvr,   sorry guy   I hope you get this solved  you might want to try to visit  #linux channel also someone there may have something to offer
[07:05] <macvr> coz_: Ok...:)
[07:05] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: Use www.justin.tv --> to indulge your impulses.
[07:05] <losher> hskill: it means different things to different people. To a programmer, it usually means a tty/pty pair, to a user, it's usually any terminal window running a cli...
[07:05] <endtask89> panzor: this is very new 4 me. b4 this i was using windows/microsoft. very different from ubuntu.
[07:05] <endtask89> mobi-sheep: thanks...
[07:05] <dthacker> macvr: you may want to post your question on launchpads answers section
[07:05] <panzor> endtask89: yeah, I like it though :)
[07:05] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: I don't know.  What are you looking for in Ubunut? There are lot of things you know. :)
[07:06] <macvr> dthacker: ok... but there has been a bug for a long time since intrepid for this webcam, so thought if someone might have a solution now...
[07:06] <endtask89> mobi-sheep: i want to try somthing new. ubuntu/linux is something new for me. i think im very good in xp/vista. so i try ubuntu.
[07:07] <hskill> kdesvn is pretty good
[07:08] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: Let's start somewhere.  What do you want to try?  What are you using for IRC?  I like XChat over Gnome-XChat for starters.
[07:08] <panzor> xchat ftw
[07:08] <songer> hello people
[07:08] <endtask89> mobi-sheep: yeah..im using xChat rite now...
[07:08] <onexused> What's the package I need to mount nfs shares?
[07:08] <songer>   I having problems
[07:08] <panzor> what problems you has good sir
[07:09] <endtask89> mobi-sheep: a lots of coding in ubuntu
[07:09] <losher> onexused: nfs-client I think it's called...
[07:09] <mobi-sheep> !nfs | onexused
[07:09] <songer> I wanna get lyrics on rhythmbox
[07:09] <onexused> losher: You know, that might be it.
[07:09] <onexused> losher mobi-sheep: Thanks
[07:09] <losher> onexused: or nfs-common, I always forget. Do 'sudo apt-cache search nfs'
[07:10] <panzor> songer: there's a plugin, lemme dig it up
[07:10] <bc> losher: don't need sudo for apt-cache
[07:10] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: I got a perfect app for you to try.
[07:10] <bc> losher: need sudo for update though
[07:10] <Starcraftmazter> why does pulseaudio keep screwing up lately=/.
[07:10] <endtask89> mobi-sheep ..what it that
[07:10] <onexused> losher: "Note, selecting nfs-common instead of nfs-client" but apt-get install nfs-client helped, anyhow.
[07:10] <losher> bc: I don't think I knew that...
[07:10] <mobi-sheep> !info gnome-do | endtask89
[07:11] <panzor> songer: rhythmbox>edit>plugins hit "song lyrics"
[07:11] <Crowman> hey, i've got SE C702 and I can not mount it as memory card. Have you got any ideas?
[07:11] <coz_> songer, you want the lyrics-look-ups  plugin I believe
[07:11] <panzor> songer: then right click a song and hit properites, then hit the lyrics tab
[07:11] <endtask89> !info gnome-do
[07:11] <songer> yes i did it
[07:11] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: It's an equivalent for QuickLight / SilverLight in Apple or Instant Search / Launchy in Vista.
[07:11] <endtask89> ahahahahah....
[07:11] <panzor> songer: success?
[07:12] <songer> ok
[07:12] <onexused> When I run a graphical program (say, gcalctool) on my Ubuntu-9.04 machine over ssh from this machine (gentoo), the waiting and text selection cursors are huge.  This doesn't happen when the host my other Ubuntu (8.10) machine.  Any ideas about fixing this?
[07:12] <songer>   lets see
[07:12] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, what is actually interesting in ubuntu?
[07:12] <nibsa1242> I'm having trouble with either files disappearing, or users not being able to find files... any help?
[07:12] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: What do you mean?  There are [over] thousand packages.
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> nibsa1242: are you using ext4?
[07:13] <nibsa1242> ActionParsnip: no, ext3
[07:13] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, yeah..i think the appearence is the one of the interesting package i thought....
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> thats a bonus, i'd try an fsck in livecd
[07:13] <hskill> wha exactly is a glyph?
[07:14] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, how about i want to install games such as counterstrike n ubuntu?
[07:14] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: The benefits of Ubuntu / linux is flexible customization. :)
[07:14] <nibsa1242> ActionParsnip: I think its a case of user forgot where she put the files... I know they are jpg, I know they were created in last 30 days.
[07:14] <panzor> endtask89: wine does a good job with counterstrike, tf2, and guildwars, in my experience
[07:14] <songer> yes now lyric is there
[07:14] <onexused> endtask89: -Some- Windows programs run under wine
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> endtask89: and all the advantages of openness + multiple devs
[07:14] <panzor> songer:gratz
[07:14] <songer>  but how can I see
[07:14] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, yeah...flexible but much much more code we must memorize to do that
[07:15] <losher> nibsa1242: files don't spontaneously disappear in ext3. If they are truly disappearing, it's because someone or something is deleting them. And users are unreliable at best...
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> nibsa1242: you could use find
[07:15] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: What do you mean?  More codes or more choices?
[07:15] <nibsa1242> ActionParsnip: however, I'm trying to learn how to use find and or use Ubuntu's graphical find files and neither seems to locate files that I know are there
[07:15] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, 4get it..hehehehe
[07:15] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, wine? what is that?
[07:15] <panzor> losher: I think that guy's house is haunted, what about you
[07:15] <bc> onexused: what window system on the gentoo box?
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> nibsa1242: sudo find / -name "*.jpg" > ~/results.txt; gedit ~/results.txt
[07:15] <yaris123456789> hiya there folks. i have vista and running ubuntu. i only gave ubuntu 8gb. but now i want to give it more space. probably 20gigs. how can i do that ?
[07:15] <mobi-sheep> !wine | endtask89
[07:15] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: That's that.
[07:16] <losher> hskill: you're full of interesting questions tonight. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glyph
[07:16] <panzor> man, the bots have more spam than a user just explaining the thing
[07:16] <nibsa1242> ActionParsnip: how can I limit that to last 30 days?
[07:16] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: I generally don't use my laptop for games though. :)
[07:16] <songer> or all the time I need to  make click on the song and  reed there
[07:16] <onexused> bc: You mean xorg-X11?  Or do you mean gnome?
[07:16] <songer> ?
[07:16] <panzor> yaris123456789: gparted, google will server you well ;)
[07:16] <bc> onexused: gnome or kde? or something else? are both machines using gnome?
[07:17] <endtask89> mobi-sheep,  owh...how interesting yeahhh!!
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> nibsa1242: not sure but i'm sure find has that functionality, read the man page is all i can suggest
[07:17] <onexused> bc: Both machines have gnome.  The host only has gnome so I can't test anything from KDE, etc.
[07:17] <nibsa1242> ActionParsnip: thanks... I think its mtime 30, trying that...
[07:17] <bc> onexused: no idea then. I was going to suggest qt <-> gtk weirdness, but looks like that's not the case
[07:18] <endtask89> !wine
[07:18] <losher> nibsa1242: find totally does this. Try: find . -name "*.jpg" -ctime -30
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> if you are after games keep an eye out for native installers an loki installers
[07:19] <onexused> Which don't always work.
[07:19] <Crowman> got any ideas to mount c702 as memory card (Ubuntu 9.04) ??
[07:19] <nibsa1242> losher: I've typed that exactly, and got nothing... when I know there were files there
[07:20] <cached> okay. this is pretty urgent
[07:20] <panzor> WHERE'S THE FIRE
[07:20] <cached> i just did sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177
[07:20] <losher> nibsa1242: doesn't sound right. Did you start in the right place?
[07:20] <cached> and now the installation just said 'removing ubuntu-desktop'
[07:20] <cached> among other removes
[07:20] <cached> that doesnt look good
[07:20] <panzor> no it doesn't
[07:20] <nibsa1242> losher: I started in ~
[07:20] <panzor> but you should be fine
[07:20] <ActionParsnip> Crowman: if the partition shows in    sudo fdisk -l    you mount it like any other partition
[07:21] <cached> panzor: will i still have access to gui?
[07:21] <panzor> cached: yeah, I've done this before. Looks scary, doesn't affect anything. Although, I'll check for you. I'd hate to cripple you because of my bad memory. And yes, it is quite bad. Sec.
[07:21] <endtask89> ActionParsnip, ubuntu also using partition like C:\ or d:\ ?
[07:21] <Crowman> ActionParsnip: in fdisk there's no my phone
[07:21] <losher> nibsa1242: try 'ls -lart' that will give you a listing with most recent first so you can cross check
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> nibsa1242: use  sudo find / -name "*.jpg" -ctime -30 > ~/result.txt; gedit ~/result.txt
[07:22] <mobi-sheep> ActionParsnip: Did you ever try 'ubuntu-laptop-mode' on a laptop?
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> mobi-sheep: i dont use ubuntu on laptops
[07:22] <panzor> cached: yup, that program doesn't exist on this machine
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> mobi-sheep: i use puppy, much faster
[07:23] <panzor> cached:giving you the go-ahead, ace
[07:23] <cached> panzor: i probably just made it worse :(. I typed sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 to get my old thing back, and now i got "Errors were encountered while processing nvidia-glx-177. Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[07:23] <losher> mobi-sheep: so what does ubuntu-laptop-mode do?
[07:23] <mobi-sheep> !info ubuntu-laptop-mode | losher
[07:23] <losher> mobi-sheep: ah,thanks
[07:23] <mobi-sheep> losher: That's that.  I wonder if I do need it since I'm sure Ubuntu know I'm using a laptop.
[07:24] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, , ubuntu also using partition like C:\ or d:\ ?
[07:24] <panzor> cached: while the other thing was installing? that possible?
[07:24] <cached> panzor: after the other thing finished
[07:24] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: No.  There are a single tree in linux and mac.  I can't remember the command.
[07:24] <Crowman> endtask98: partitions windows-like? NO
[07:24] <panzor> cached: what about the nvidia-glx-new package
[07:24] <panzor> cached: do you have that?
[07:25] <mobi-sheep> !dirs | endtask89
[07:25] <cached> panzor how do i check
[07:25] <leehac> ubuntu-id
[07:25] <panzor> cached: uh, synaptic or you could use "dpkg -l | grep nvidia"
[07:25] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: You want to look at "Main Directories" on the link.
[07:25] <cached> panzor: it's not on the list
[07:25] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: You want to worry about your home folder -- That's it.
[07:25] <panzor> cached: first part lists all of your packages, then pipes that to show only the lines with "nvidia" in it
[07:25] <mobi-sheep> !home | endtask89
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> !info jockey-gtk | cached:
[07:26] <nibsa1242> ActionParsnip: ok, that worked, I think the issue was the "-" before the 30 after ctime
[07:26] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, good! thanks alot man!!!
[07:26] <panzor> cached: may I ask what the overall goal of doing all this is? updating your video drivers?
[07:26] <cached> panzor: I couldn't find a -dev package for 180
[07:26] <ruediix> Hello.  I noticed that synaptic keeps saying that it can't verify the signature on any of the packages.  Does anyone know what might cause this>
[07:26] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: Your personal file (and configuration files) are kept in /home/endtask89/
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> nibsa1242: yeah . starts in the pwd, to search the whole system you need to use /
[07:26] <peepsalot> argh.  why is awesome version so old in the repos
[07:27] <cached> panzor: so, being tired, i saw 177-dev as the latest and decided "ah, that's probably what i have. i'll just pick that"
[07:27] <peepsalot> i can't figure out how to build this thing either
[07:27] <mobi-sheep> ruediix: You need to add the key.  Did you install something recently?
[07:27] <panzor> cached: why do you need the -dev?
[07:27] <nibsa1242> ActionParsnip: I found them... the user forgot that she put them on a USB thumb drive instead of copying to the hard drive
[07:27] <losher> nibsa1242: the -30 should be correct. Famous last words...
[07:27] <cached> panzor: building o3d
[07:27] <ruediix> mobi-sheep no
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: run: sudo apt-get update. If you give the error regarding the key I can give you the command
[07:27] <panzor> cached: ah, not familiar. Give me a second to see...
[07:28] <losher> nibsa1242: Users. Can't kill 'em...
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: sounds like you added a repo and not its pgp key
[07:28] <endtask89> mobi-sheep, you are very clever in ubuntu... when did u start using ubuntu?
[07:28] <h4mx0r> is there an mplayer skin that makes it only one window?
[07:28] <panzor> cached: I'd get these two packages: nvidia-glx-new and nvidia-glx-new-dev
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> h4mx0r: smplayer is getting bigged up at the moment, I use it without skin at al so couldnt comment
[07:29] <kc8pxy> i need help understanding why i can't tell apt to simply reinstall a package i installed,  and then goofed,  so i want the fresh files to overwrite my goof.   and it won't.(or i don't know how to tell it to).
[07:29] <panzor> cached: just a guess, but it sounds like "-new" means that it'll update it as it goes, thus being the "best" for the people that want to stay current. That's what I have as default - at least I didn't put it there myself.
[07:29] <ruediix> ActionParsnip: It is reporting it in the standard Ubuntu packages.
[07:29] <nibsa1242> losher: yeah, but its ok... pictures represent about 3 hours of work... so time was saved, and now I know how to use find better
[07:29] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: About a year now.
[07:30] <bgupta> Good evening.. I was fiddling around in OS X today and discovered http://www.manpagez.com/man/8/dynamic_pager/osx-10.4.php I'm wondering if Ubuntu ships with something like this, as it seems pretty useful?
[07:30] <losher> nibsa1242: cool
[07:30] <nibsa1242> losher ActionParsnip thanks for all your help!
[07:30] <mobi-sheep> endtask89: I began using Gentoo at first.  I later moved to Ubuntu.
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: doesnt mean anything. If you don't have the ke, you don't have the key
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> nibsa1242: np bro
[07:30] <h4mx0r> ActionParsnip: I want to use regular plain mplayer but with a one piece skin
[07:30] <losher> kc8pxy: apt-get install --reinstall <package> or some such
[07:30] <cached> panzor: "nvidia-glx-new is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has ben obsoleted, or is only available from another source"
[07:30] <cached> panzor: then it lists nvidia-glx-177 as its replacement
[07:30] <ruediix> tell ActionParsnip I had the key before and it reports that I have the key for the Ubuntu repositories in the GUI.
[07:31] <h4mx0r> ActionParsnip: I still don't get why vlc is always bugged in some way on most linux distros
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: if you run: sudo apt-get update   in terminaland give the error about keys I can give you the command to resolve it
[07:31] <losher> h4mx0r: crappy programmers...
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> h4mx0r: i dont use it
[07:31] <panzor> cached: ah, that could be. I'm in 8.04 - I guess try reverting everything to the one that went through that caused the other one's error? restart X and cross your fingers
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> h4mx0r: log bugs and things get fixed
[07:31] <mobi-sheep> h4mx0r: You're experiencing an embedded window bug?  Two interfaces -- One for GUI --- One for Control Interface.
[07:31] <zenxr> mobi-sheep: beginning with gentoo, never heard of that before :P
[07:31] <ruediix> ActionParsnip OK, I've got something really screwed up.  It's reporting that it is using ftp.debian.org as it's sources.  I have no clue why.
[07:31] <Ryan52> can somebody on jaunty or karmic please pastebin their /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/x-www-browser for me?
[07:32] <ActionParsnip> h4mx0r: try cvlc
[07:32] <mobi-sheep> zenxr: Better Gentoo than Windows. :)
[07:32] <zenxr> mobi-sheep: I opted for slackware instead of gentoo, older packages but better stability
[07:32] <zenxr> mobi-sheep: just because gentoo isn't very user friendly.
[07:32] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: you shouldnt have any debian sources, ubuntu + debian debs = pain
[07:32] <losher> zenxr: I find 8.04.2 LTS rock solid & stable, personally...
[07:32] <h4mx0r> ActionParsnip mobi-sheep: I am tired of all these rediculous media apps that just fail.    I am going to have to do a complete reinstall.
[07:33] <ActionParsnip> h4mx0r: any player can play any media file provided it has codecs
[07:33] <Ryan52> anybody?
[07:33] <zenxr> losher: it's cool lol, i'm running 8.10 atm, but it's a custom distrobution
[07:33] <ActionParsnip> h4mx0r: the player is irrelevant
[07:33] <h4mx0r> ActionParsnip: so all I have to do is strip down the wmp skin? where is it can you link
[07:33] <panzor> ruediix: hold on, you want to get rid of some .debs? I wasn't paying attention
[07:33] <mobi-sheep> h4mx0r: I like gnome-mplayer over mplayer myself as it use a simple interface.  You might want to try that.  VLC is great but there are an embedded window bug occurring.  There are also are a patch for it if you're not aware.  It's not updated in Ubuntu repos.
[07:34] <ActionParsnip> Ryan52: sec
[07:34] <losher> panzor: :-)
[07:34] <h4mx0r> mobi-sheep: that's the one I was just talking about
[07:34] <Ryan52> ActionParsnip: thanks much :)
[07:34] <ruediix> tell Panzor no, the issue is unknown  Somehow my repository list got corrupted.
[07:34] <h4mx0r> mobi-sheep: I might try vlc again I haven't used it since 8.10 when it couldn't open a directory without dieing
[07:34] <ActionParsnip> Ryan52: http://pastebin.com/f3e58b43f
[07:34] <mobi-sheep> h4mx0r: gnome-mplayer --> not same as mplayer.  It uses a different GUI./
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> Ryan52: if you backup the files you edit, befre playing then you will never need to ask again
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> Ryan52: as you can roll back
[07:35] <panzor> ruediix: ack, sorry
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> Ryan52: you may want to bear this in mind in thefuture
[07:35] <Ryan52> ActionParsnip: this has nothing to do with that..
[07:35] <UFO_IRC_TEST> #ubuntu-tw
[07:36] <Ryan52> ActionParsnip: I'm a Debian contributor trying to make changes to my package so that there doesn't need to be an ubuntu diff anymore, and I needed to know what firefox's priority is on ubuntu.
[07:36] <fuzzybunny69y> hey everyone can anyone help me in getting my sound working? For some reason the startup sound plays but nothing else works.
[07:36] <Ryan52> aprilhare: anyway, thanks.
[07:36] <Ryan52> aprilhare: sorry...
[07:37] <zenxr> fuzzybunny69y: what desktop client are you using? gnome/kde/fluxbox/exc?
[07:37] <Ryan52> gah, he left.

[07:37] <fuzzybunny69y> zenxr, gnome
[07:37] <zenxr> fuzzybunny69y: open another window so we can work on it?
[07:37] <ActionParsnip> pidgin crapped out
[07:38] <fuzzybunny69y> zenxr, what do you mean open another console window
[07:38] <xero> can someone help me setup my server?
[07:38] <zenxr> fuzzybunny69y, a private irc window.
[07:38] <cached> panzor: okay. saved/pickled everything. restarting.
[07:38] <ActionParsnip> xero: can you be more specific please? I can name about 2 different server types without breaking a sweat
[07:38] <zenxr> fuzzybunny69y: I opened it
[07:38] <ActionParsnip> 20
[07:39] <panzor> cached: good luck~
[07:39] <losher> cached: pickled. I like that...
[07:39] <cached> losher: ?
[07:39] <cached> panzor: shouldn't ctrl-alt-backspace restart x?
[07:39] <ActionParsnip> !dontzap
[07:39] <panzor> cached: yep - though they disabled it in 9.04 I heard...'tards
[07:39] <ActionParsnip> panzor: yeah, weird isnt it
[07:39] <ruediix> ActionParsnip: I can't find those debian archives anywhere in the /etc/apt config files
[07:39] <xero> i have ubuntu 8.04 desktop edition, im trying to set it up so i can get my website up
[07:40] <losher> panzor: don't get me started on 9.04....
[07:40] <panzor> losher: chances are you already did in the past life we shared together
[07:40] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file as well as the output of: sudo apt-get update  please
[07:40] <cached> panzor: so, how do i restart x? log out and back in?
[07:40] <ActionParsnip> xero: then install apache2
[07:40] <trancefat> Hi all, Evolution is quite buggy (as a personal organizer) isnt it?
[07:41] <xero> already installed apache2
[07:41] <panzor> cached: do the doo-icky the bot posted about dontzap. It'll be useful in the future at some point. Save some time
[07:41] <mobi-sheep> !lamp
[07:41] <mobi-sheep> xero: See ^^
[07:41] <ActionParsnip> !dontzap > panzor
[07:41] <panzor> trancefat: I use clawsmail and like it a bunch.
[07:41] <h4mx0r> trancefat: if you like personal organizers you might try kde. I guess it helps since you stare at the eyecandy so much with that.
[07:41] <trancefat> panzor: thanks
[07:41] <xero> thanks
[07:42] <panzor> ActionParsnip: hey, dontzap zapped me
[07:42] <trancefat> h4mx0r: yeah, but i wanted to stick to Gnome
[07:42] <cached> panzor: okay, hopefully really restarting x this time
[07:42] <krishmish> hi room
[07:42] <panzor> cached: heheh *salutes*
[07:42] <ActionParsnip> panzor: i told ubottu to, its now in a seperate window so it won't be lost in the sand of time
[07:43] <h4mx0r> trancefat: alright, just I was a bit impressed about how much information it could sort through
[07:43] <panzor> ActionParsnip: I don't need it silly :P cached was asking
[07:43] <ActionParsnip> panzor: i see
[07:43] <trancefat> h4mx0r: if i install it (i wont need to switch to KDE right)
[07:43] <cached> panzor: ugh
[07:43] <krishmish> can someone help me set up a ubuntu machine as a domain controller authenticating windows machines and users??
[07:43] <panzor> cached: no beans?
[07:44] <h4mx0r> trancefat: if you install kubuntu you can switch between kde and gnome with gdm
[07:44] <defcon1_> how does one go about resetting all of the default programs for different file extensions?
[07:44] <krishmish> can someone help me set up a ubuntu machine as a domain controller authenticating windows machines and users??
[07:44] <cached> panzor not restarting
[07:44] <ruediix> tell ActionParsnip weird apt-update was using the wrong sources.  It must be looking somewhere else for it's source files
[07:44] <h4mx0r> defcon1: reallywish I knew
[07:44] <panzor> you did: sudo dontzap --disable ?
[07:44] <cached> panzor yes
[07:44] <panzor> cached: ctrl-alt-backspace?
[07:45] <krishmish> can someone help me set up a ubuntu machine as a domain controller authenticating windows machines and users??
[07:45] <cached> panzor: yes
[07:45] <ruediix> tell ActionParsnip how do I reinstall the keyring package?  After that I'll clean up my package tree.
[07:45] <panzor> cached: *facepalm* umm...ask it nicely? I'm all out
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: it looks at souces.list in /etc/apt
[07:45] <cached> panzor: no error message when running the command. if i dont run it as root, then it tells me i'm not root
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> cached: put sudo in front
[07:46] <furythor> Is there software to diagnose hardware (AGP bus speed) etc ?
[07:46] <panzor> cached: yeah. My guess is that maybe it works after a restart?
[07:46] <ruediix> ActionParsnip that's why it's confusing me.  I know that.  Apt-upgrade is not behaving the same as apt-get upgrade
[07:46] <ActionParsnip> furythor: sudo lshw
[07:46] <cached> ActionParsnip: i did it as root (using sudo) already
[07:46] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: i've never used apt-upgrade only apt-get upgrade
[07:46] <h4mx0r> krishmish: have you tried kerberos? http://www.alittletooquiet.net/text/kerberos-on-ubuntu/
[07:46] <ruediix> actionparsnip don't patronize me I know what I'm doing.
[07:46] <MeXTuX> I'm trying to build gmameui 0.2.8 from source and when I type ./configure got this error: checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.4.0... yes (version 2.12.9)

[07:46] <MeXTuX> checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.13.4... no
[07:47] <losher> krishmish: I can't, but I googled & found: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/samba-dc.html
[07:47] <MeXTuX> *** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why...
[07:47] <krishmish> h4mx0r: no
[07:47] <MeXTuX> *** The test program compiled, but did not run. This usually means
[07:47] <krishmish> h4mx0r: yeah
[07:47] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: due to the wide range of skill set in the channel i treat everyone identically so details are not overlooked as assumed
[07:47] <ruediix> ActionParsnip  OK, then if you know the name of the keyring package so I can reinstall it properly, it would help, otherwise I'll have to go on my own.
[07:47] <farhanm> h8i
[07:47] <defcon1_> i feel like there should be an easy way to reset things back do default applications for specific extensions, but this is proving to be harder than I thought to find

[07:47] <lstarnes> MeXTuX: you need libgtk2.0-dev
[07:48] <h4mx0r> krishmish: so you wish to setup samba properly?
[07:48] <ruediix> actionparsnip not the manual install there is a package that contains the keyring I need
[07:48] <krishmish> h4mx0r: yes
[07:48] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: here is a script i have for pgpp keys: http://pastebin.com/f2ce47c5f
[07:48] <ruediix> actionparsnip and that is not it.
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: you give it the last 8 character in the error you get when yu apt-get update and it gets the key for you :D
[07:49] <h4mx0r> krishmish ldap is probably what you want
[07:49] <ruediix> actionparsnip and that isn't it either.  There is a package installed on first install that contains the keys.  I need to reinstall that package.  Now if you don't need that package than don't bother trying to help.
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: apt-cache search key | less
[07:50] <krishmish> h4mx0r: actually till now i we were using windows server with AD
[07:50] <kc8pxy> how do i force a package to purge, and not care that it can't stop it via invoke-rc.d ??
[07:50] <ruediix> actionparsnip well the apt-get update isn't erroring out.   It seems to be reporting it as an error.
[07:50] <zhoujingrui> hi i need a help my ubuntu 8.10 no sound
[07:50] <ActionParsnip> ruediix: you are now on ignore. I'm trying to help and you are being totally ungrateful
[07:50] <zhoujingrui> can u help me?
[07:50] <krishmish> h4mx0r:  i am told integration with LDAP for AD is complex
[07:50] <ruediix> actionparsnip This isn't slackware you don't manually install keys when there is a package.
[07:50] <ruediix> actionparsnip if you don't know what you are doing stop trying to be an expert.
[07:51] <h4mx0r> krishmish: hmm probably right
[07:51] <panzor> ruediix: I'd help you dude, but I don't know how...kudos for not..."helping"? haha
[07:51] <krishmish> h4mx0r:  so, as a parellel, i want to first set up a file server that can authenticate windows users the same way
[07:51] <xero> how do i port forward?
[07:51] <defcon1_> @h4mx0r is GDM installed by default in ubuntu?  if so how do you get to it?
