[22:39] <pleaseHelp> yea i am on ubuntu.. want to do this WITH ubuntu ;)
[22:40] <jgb> I'm trying to get cups-pdf to work on Intrepid.  The PDF printer was installed, but no pdf file was created when using it, and I deleted and recreated it.  There is still no output - I checked in ~/PDF, /root/PDF and under the directories in /var/spool/cups-pdf/.  /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf contains Out ${HOME}/PDF.  Google offers no joy. Any ideas?
[22:40] <Sinister> why do my files open with gnome how do i switch to kde ? and im running kde
[22:40] <pangloss> ubuntu_nub: it has to do with logical partitions
[22:40] <Jason_WT> hey, are any of yall using ubuntu 8.1?
[22:40] <pangloss> pleaseHelp: ...sigh. just burn the windows iso to cd..
[22:40] <swaj> you mean 8.10?
[22:40] <karsten> wolfwalker: I'm googling ATM.
[22:40] <Jason_WT> yea
[22:40] <swaj> many of us are
[22:40] <wolfwalker> pleaseHelp Specifics please.  How are you booting windows with Ubuntu?  In Virtualbox?
[22:40] <pleaseHelp> but i have no cd drive in this comp :(
[22:41] <karsten> wolfwalker: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/05/15/usb-ubuntu-804-persistent-install-from-linux/
[22:41] <Jason_WT> what is the difference between that one and 8.94?
[22:41] <pangloss> pleaseHelp: then you would need to network install
[22:41] <pleaseHelp> ok i am booting ubuntu from usb.. have a blank hdd.. was able to partition and mount it
[22:41] <Jason_WT> 8.04*
[22:41] <wolfwalker> pleaseHelp If you can't burn a cd you might be out of luck.
[22:41] <ubuntu_nub> pangloss: hm..yeah, my hd should be blank and formatted besides sda1, which is xp.
[22:41] <wolfwalker> Depending on what you want to do
[22:42] <pangloss> ubuntu_nub: you wont be able to install windows while running ubuntu from a USB stick
[22:42] <pleaseHelp> pangloss: how do i network install?
[22:42] <Serafeim> need help for my wireless
[22:42] <Jason_WT> does it still do everything that the other version did
[22:42] <pangloss> pleaseHelp: its going to get complicated. You cant just stick a cd drive in the comp?
[22:42] <Jatz> hey guys, just installed ubuntu on my new Acer Aspire one. wondering if I have to install madwifi for wifi or if it does it out of the box (8.10)
[22:42] <Jason_WT> and why is it supp. till 2010 but the older one is till 2011?
[22:43] <pleaseHelp> pangloss: nope it'
[22:43] <Jatz> jarco: is it a LTS version?
[22:43] <Serafeim> i have atheros card. how can i make the wireless to work?
[22:43] <pleaseHelp> don't havea  cd rom drive around
[22:43] <wolfwalker> Yeah karsten I have read that.  I used the installer in Ubuntu 8.04 though, just installed it straight and clean.  But I want to be able to boot the flash drive on a computer that does not normally boot from USB.  Is there a way to burn an iso cd that would kick the computer into booting from USB?
[22:44] <ubuntu_nub> pangloss: ah, heh heh. I'm running from a livedisk. no flash drives here. my hard drive is blank besides an 8gb installation of XP. I was just wondering why when I'm setting up partitions in gparted it starts the new partitions at sda5.
[22:44] <jgb> wolfwalker: does the computer normally boot from cd?
[22:44] <pleaseHelp> is the some usb bootable distro that might allow me to create a virtual cdrom and then boot from that?
[22:45] <wolfwalker> jgb the computer can be set to boot from cd first, or from internal hard drive, or from network.  No USB boot options.
[22:45] <Serafeim> can anyone help me to setup a wireless connection?
[22:45] <jwormy> I have a super-slow internet connection at work - and 8.4 on my laptop - I have an 8.10 disc - is there anyway to use the 8.10 disc to update from 8.4-8.10 ?
[22:45] <tripitakit> pleaseHelp, puppy
[22:45] <wolfwalker> pleasehelp, try network boot.
[22:45] <wolfwalker> Or puppy, yes.
[22:45] <erUSUL> jwormy: only if the disc is the alternate one
[22:45] <B3z3rk3r> jwormy only if you have the alernate install cd
[22:45] <mars_> oui
[22:45] <pleaseHelp> whats puppy? (ok googeling)
[22:45] <dmitriyv> hey guys i got a problem, my onboard NIC was crap and not really supported by Ubuntu, so I got myself an Intel/Pro 1000GT which should be supported out of the box, yet for some reason once I stuck it in it loads the driver from what I see, but still doesnt work
[22:45] <jwormy> bummer ;)
[22:45] <wolfwalker> pleaseHelp you could also install VirtualBox and run Winblows from in there.
[22:46] <pangloss> ubuntu_nub: woops sorr that one wasnt for you. The reason gparted is skipping 2-4 is because logical partitions start at sda5
[22:46] <karsten> wolfwalker: WRT syslinux:  it's a bootloader, works for CDROMs, you'd go through some trix to create a bootable CD which would allow you to boot from various media, including, say, USB, HD, CD, and/or network.  SYSLINUX is related to another boot tool called PXEBOOT, created by the same guy.
[22:46] <tripitakit> pleaseHelp, but i dont get the cirtual cdrom idea sorry :)
[22:46] <n8tuser> Serafeim-> what chip does your wifi have?
[22:46] <tripitakit> *virtual
[22:46] <stage3> jwormy, you could use the alternative cd install for update it
[22:46] <jgb> wolfwalker: if the bios doesn't support booting from USB, I doubt you'll be able to get USB booting going, but I might be wrong!
[22:46] <wolfwalker> Yeah karsten I'm looking through there.  A bit lost at the moment though.
[22:46] <ubuntu_nub> pangloss: oh. ok, man, thanks for the info. I'll google a bit from here.
[22:47] <jwormy> we've got a t1 here at the new office that we're sharing with a civil engineering firm.. super slowwwwww
[22:47] <B3z3rk3r> wolfwalker jgb is right. if there is no usb boot option it means that it isnt suported by your BIOS and therefore wont work
[22:47] <B1g0lCAQ> hey b3z3rk3r, it didnt work
[22:47] <ubuntu_nub> a bootable cd capable of transferring to usb would be pretty awesome.
[22:47] <wolfwalker> I thought there was such a thing
[22:48] <ubuntu_nub> it sounds like something that should exist. i'll look around a bit on that too.
[22:49] <karsten> jwormy: OC3 is the new T1
[22:49] <Omoikane> Okay, I upgraded to Ibex and my mute button no longer works and Flash almost never works and to top it off if there is flash on a page 50% of the time it crashes firefox. This is something I really need to fix.
[22:49] <ajonat> hmm.. I'm updating ssmtp in hardy (to the newest package in hardy-updates) and it's failing to update with this message: export: 44: #: bad variable name
[22:49] <n8tuser> karsten totally different category
[22:49] <Chousuke> ajonat: broken package? :/
[22:49] <karsten> n8tuser: Kinda the point
[22:49] <spatman_> Some one here that run World of warcraft using Wine? have some Ingame grafik problems i need help with.
[22:50] <swaj> has anybody used a Logitech MX Revolution mouse/keyboard with intrepid?  I'm wondering if the LCD still works :)
[22:50] <n8tuser> karsten-> people reading that, i hope would not mis-interpret you
[22:50] <karsten> n8tuser: Tongue-in-cheek.
[22:50] <karsten> n8tuser: Point taken
[22:50] <Molakay> https://launchpad.net/awn say's awn 0.2.6 is out.. why isn't ubuntu updating it ?
[22:50] <wolfwalker> Omoikane That happens with me too, in 8.04.  I think the official nonfree flash is broken.  Maybe try gnash?
[22:50] <ubuntu_nub> back. accidently closed terminal from which I had launched xchat
[22:50] <porter1> swaj, yes I do
[22:50] <porter1> what do you mean lcd?
[22:51] <karsten> ubuntu_nub: xchat & or 'nohup xchat &' should prevent that.
[22:51] <Omoikane> wolfwalker gnash?
[22:51] <porter1> I guess I don't have the keyboard
[22:51] <swaj> porter1: I have the MX revolution 5500 keyboard and mouse.  The keyboard has an LCD screen on it that can be programmed to show weather, time, etc.
[22:51] <erUSUL> !appdb | spatman_
[22:51] <swaj> porter1: was curious to see if there was support for it in Ubuntu Intrepid
[22:51] <porter1> Oh
[22:51] <wolfwalker> Omoikane Gnash is the unofficial flash player plugin.  Not recommended unless the nonfree official flash does not work.
[22:51] <wolfwalker> !gnash | Omoikane
[22:51] <ajonat> Chousuke, maybe
[22:51] <MadsRH> Hi. Does anyone know where I can find the logs from todays ubuntu-classrooom chat???
[22:51] <Omoikane> thanks
[22:52] <porter1> swaj, knowing logitech, probably not
[22:52] <ubuntu_nub> karsten: k k :D
[22:52] <edd> hi, is there a CLI command to roll back any updates/upgrades I made recently?
[22:52] <ajonat> Chousuke, I'm looking in ubuntuforums and launchapd for a bug report..
[22:52] <n8tuser> edd nope, none
[22:52] <jdautz> Omoikane, lokk at swf plugin
[22:52] <dmitriyv> so can anyone help me please?
[22:52] <n8tuser> edd your recourse is to re-install fresh the older version
[22:52] <emma> Anyone have any insight into why gparted doesn't see the correct number of GB on my hard drive?
[22:52] <swaj> I've been comtemplating moving to Ubuntu Intrepid as my main OS with a windows xp VM inside for certain applications.  Seeing that Warcraft runs so well under Wine.  Anyone have experience with VirtualBox under ubuntu?
[22:53] <multiverse> Is Ubuntu getting slower?  http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=13080
[22:53] <MrPrise> hello
[22:53] <emma> The partitioner on the install disk sees the correct number of GB but in gparted it's missing 20 GBs
[22:53] <MrPrise> how can I use older gcc? eg 3.4?
[22:53] <pangloss> swaj: i use it to run windows for the occasional app that linux can't provide
[22:53] <esr> I have a new program that might be useful.  Where do I go to request Ubuntu packaging for it?
[22:53] <dmitriyv> emma you have to account for all bad sectors and stuff the the HDs cut out, so if its a 160 gig HDD you usually see it at maybe 145 or something
[22:53] <n8tuser> emma maybe a hidden partition is checked? i dont know, look around in the settings
[22:53] <jdautz> emma, be carefull  Gb means 1000 or 1024 bites
[22:53] <jdautz> mb
[22:53] <ubuntu_nub> ok, I'm thinking of ways to partition for ubuntu and everything. 1 primary is XP, secound will be logical with /, /home, and swap.
[22:54] <emma> dmitriyv: bad sectors?
[22:54] <n8tuser> emma yeah jdautz made a good point
[22:54] <car_watt> Hi, all, any person has the problem went tried to send email from hotmail ubuntu 8.04
[22:54] <car_watt> ?
[22:54] <emma> It's a 200 GB hard drive, the install disk sees all 200 GB but gparted says 184.5
[22:54] <ubuntu_nub> i may need to install vista and/or other distros of linux later on.
[22:54] <pangloss> ubuntu_nub: i dont think / can go on a logical partition
[22:54] <pangloss> ubuntu_nub: not sure though
[22:54] <backenfutter> howcome this: /usr/bin/screen -d -m -S umts -X "wvdial umts"     leads to this: No screen session found.
[22:54] <jgb> try http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/925285.html for booting the contents of an ISO image with GRUB
[22:55] <ubuntu_nub> pangloss: i'll look into it.
[22:55] <swaj> emma: that's because gparted measures GB in 1024 MB chunks, but the installer will show GB in 1000 MB chuks( the same way that hard drive manufacturers measure it)
[22:55] <swaj> emma:  your hard drive is reporting the correct size in gparted.
[22:55] <dmitriyv> can anyone help me figure out my NIC problem please? installed a new NIC and sudo lshw -C network shows it as disabled
[22:55] <ajonat> Chousuke, the installation post-script didn't like the comments at the end of lines lol
[22:55] <Chousuke> heh :P
[22:55] <mDuff> Arrow keys have stopped working in qemu (even remote instances of qemu being displayed on the local X server) since I upgraded to Ibex. Any ideas on what the issue could be?
[22:56] <Omoikane> wolfwalker it's still crashing... sigh.
[22:56] <edd> n8tuser: thanks, i was afraid of that... np though, think I've found my problem
[22:56] <n8tuser> dmitriyv-> does it come up if you do  sudo ifup eth0 ?
[22:56] <swaj> emma:  if you check hard drive manufacturer websites, many times they will say on product, 1 GB = 1 billion bytes.... but in reality, 1 GB = 1.07 billion bytes (or 1024^3)
[22:57] <dmitriyv> unknown interface
[22:57] <spatman_> Some one here that run World of warcraft using Wine? have some Ingame grafik problems i need help with.
[22:57] <swaj> emma: check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte for more information
[22:57] <izinucs> Flannel: can you ping me here?
[22:57] <aar> Hi, does anyone know whether the sinowal trojan affects linux boxes?
[22:57] <dmitriyv> it shows my onboard lan as unclaimed though but that one has major river issues, atl2 lol
[22:57] <mr_polite> id like the ubuntu last.fm app to display song titles on song change - much like Rhythmbox does. Unfortunatly there doesnt appear to be a way to trigger this behavior. can this be forced through libnotify?
[22:57] <ubuntu_nub> thanks for help everyone. Laters
[22:58] <dmitriyv> new one is intel pro so should have no problems and it autoloads e1000.ko to
[22:58] <dmitriyv> i just need to figure out how to enable the new NIC
[22:58] <Flannel> izinucs: nope :)
[22:58] <swaj> aar:  according to http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/trojan-psw_w32_sinowal_cp.shtml, sinowal appears to only affect win32 systems.
[22:58] <geeken> hello there! i need help. my enable wireless checkbox is grayed out.. :(
[22:58] <aar> swaj, thank you!
[22:58] <swaj> aar: np
[22:58] <izinucs> Flannel: worked on irssi in this channel
[22:59] <zsquareplusc> i wanted to try dual head, but its presenting the login (gdm) on the VGA instead of the DVI port. is that an X issue or hardware?
[23:00] <kinections> anybody here using grub-efi?
[23:00] <mohdrafie> How do I get windows driver (.inf)?
[23:00] <swaj> is there a way to copy the ubuntu install media to a thumb drive and boot from it instead of burning a disc?
[23:01] <TheBase> hello
[23:01] <harlekin> dmitriyv, $ifconfig eth0 up schould be fix your problem
[23:01] <TheBase> Just now I started my computer and I couldn't connect because of some eth0:avahi been created
[23:01] <fiber> hi, i was wondering if anyone knew of an antenna that works with 802.11b and 802.11n?
[23:01] <n8tuser> swaj-> have you googled for how to do that yet?
[23:01] <TheBase> what is that and how did it get there?
[23:01] <koshari> swaj this exact function is available on the 8.10 disc
[23:02] <mohdrafie> How do I get windows driver (.inf)?
[23:02] <n8tuser> fiber-> same antenna
[23:02] <zsquareplusc> swaj: yes, there is a menu in system.>settings. look at it when you have booted the live cd on an other pc
[23:02] <oxmox_> hi i have a bit trouble with 8.10 on a usb stick i used the auto creater but if i start from usb i became the "could not find kernel image" error
[23:02] <Baversjo_> Is it possible to deny access with PAM limits instead of just disconnecting the user that is trying to autheniticate?
[23:02] <dmitriyv> barlekin> it says SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot asign requested address
[23:02] <swaj> zsquareplusc: is there a way to do it from Windows?
[23:02] <erUSUL> TheBase: ethn:avahi exist in all ubuntu boxes and afaik can not interfere with other connections
[23:02] <fiber> n8tuser: so, any antenna that works with 802.11b will work for 802.11n?  i've been seeing antenna that are specific to different drafts
[23:03] <n8tuser> Baversjo_-> yeah PAM is the right place for that..i dont know the correct configs though off hand
[23:03] <pengo> how do i change fscks from every 24 boots to every 500 boots?
[23:03] <zsquareplusc> swaj: maybe. id run the cd in a virtual machine like virtualbox, but there may be more direct ways
[23:03] <n8tuser> fiber-> it will work
[23:03] <swaj> zsquareplusc: oh, good idea.  I could probably just boot the CD from virtualbox and make the thumb drive that way.  Thanks for the heads up.
[23:03] <erUSUL> pengo: man tune2fs
[23:03] <koshari> swaj you could use a VM in windows to boot the live disc but its a bit of a long winded way of doing it
[23:03] <pengo> erUSUL: thanks
[23:03] <Brucee> how do i make ubuntu server listen on a certain port?
[23:04] <myvo> i just installed 8.10 and it's not installing my ati restricted driver correctly. when i boot up the machine, i can see an error message along the lines of "fglrx kernel install failed." how can i look up this exact error message?
[23:04] <avsej> hi all. how to reinatall flashplugin on intrepid?
[23:04] <GleepGlop> anyone know which which vncviewer for windows works with Gnome's vino-server encryption?
[23:04] <n8tuser> Brucee-> is the server services that you configure to listen
[23:04] <zsquareplusc> Brucee: start a service of your choixe.. what do you want to do?
[23:04] <Brucee> let say port 6000, i want to be listening
[23:04] <n8tuser> Brucee-> it is the server services that you configure to listen
[23:04] <zsquareplusc> Brucee: nc -l 6000
[23:05] <TheBase> erUSUL, thanks
[23:05] <Brucee> n8tuser where do i edit that? services?
[23:05] <mohdrafie> How do I get windows driver (.inf)? I've extracted ndiswrapper, but no .inf file :(
[23:06] <devil___> k
[23:06] <zsquareplusc> Brucee: no, that is just a command for the console to test it. you need to know what service you really want to run.. webserver? ssh? irc? something completely different?
[23:06] <n8tuser> Brucee-> what ever server services you are running,
[23:06] <Brucee> irc server
[23:06] <n8tuser> Brucee-> zsquareplusc made it clear
[23:07] <Brucee> but i dont see it when i do netstat
[23:07] <zsquareplusc> Brucee: then install a irc server package and configure it
[23:07] <Brucee> zsquareplusc i did that already
[23:07] <Brucee> but when i do netstat, it dont show that application or port
[23:07] <ironmedic> yay i have my xubuntu working!
[23:07] <zsquareplusc> Brucee: then there is probably a config file in /etc/<whateverapplication>  you can edit
[23:07] <n8tuser> Brucee-> irc server still requires configuring, read the manual for it
[23:08] <mohdrafie> Help please. How do I get windows driver (.inf)? I've extracted ndiswrapper, but no .inf file :(
[23:08] <ironmedic> does anyone know how i can override the i815 chipset resolutions? i can run 1024x768 on windows xp but not xubuntu
[23:09] <zsquareplusc> mohdrafie: you need to get the windows drivers from your manufacturers website. the ndiswrapper does not have the drivers included. it uses the one you provide
[23:09] <n8tuser> mohdrafie-> you have to get it from the windows driver
[23:09] <Edgar> hello everyone, I came from Windows, and with WIndows I write the letter 'ñ' just pressing Alt+164, here with ubuntu I can't, I have to go to Characters Map
[23:09] <zsquareplusc> Edgar: there is a tool in the application->addons menu
[23:09] <Edgar> how can I set that I can write the letter 'ñ' in Ubuntu?
[23:10] <zsquareplusc> Edgar: and you can type a lot of special characters with alt+letter/alt-gr+letter etc
[23:10] <ironmedic> does anyone know how i can override the i815 chipset resolutions? i can run 1024x768 on windows xp but not xubuntu
[23:11] <oxmox_> >ironmedic 1024x768 is a cipset resolution it has to work
[23:11] <ironmedic> it does not show up in my resolution menu
[23:11] <ironmedic> i only have 640x480 and 800x600 only
[23:11] <n8tuser> ironmedic-> you need to edit xorg.conf and insert that resolution if it doesnt exist
[23:11] <Edgar> well. I'm using ubuntu in spanish
[23:11] <oxmox_> do you use a tft or a crt ?
[23:12] <ironmedic> do you have the command line to input for it?
[23:12] <zsquareplusc> Edgar: does your keyboard usually have dead keys? e.g. so that you can type ~+n to get ñ? that's how i have it
[23:12] <mhall119> ironmedic, which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[23:12] <Edgar> no
[23:12] <oxmox_> sorry i was wrong
[23:13] <Edgar> my keyboard is in english
[23:13] <ironmedic> intrepid xubuntu
[23:13] <kaatil> greetings... i have a problem with 8.10 freshed install on my computer. The first time after it is installed.. so x11 display on the screen properly.. which is good. i copied xorg.conf(before install nvidia driver). Then I did installed it and reboot. it gave the fatal  server error: no screens found. so i try to return the xorg.conf to the original one, still the same fatal server error. Strange... it seem work fine on previous v
[23:13] <oxmox_> have you specify your monitor
[23:13] <zsquareplusc> Edgar: you could set it to english intl. with dead keys. then you can combine charcters that way
[23:13] <mhall119> you shouldn't need to edit xorg.conf in Intrepid....
[23:13] <mhall119> was your monitor plugged in when you booted?
[23:13] <kaatil> yes.
[23:13] <n8tuser> ironmedic->  modeline  "1024x768@60" 65.0 1024 1048 1184 1344 768 771 777 806 -vsync -hsync  but be careful of the freq, here its 65Hz on mine
[23:14] <ironmedic> ok let me look into this command
[23:14] <mhall119> kaatil, is the "nvidia" driver listed in your xorg.conf?
[23:14] <n8tuser> ironmedic-> thats not a command, thats an entry in xorg.conf
[23:14] <jarco> was in the ff update oday something to ould have coused me to not being able to watch videos in it?
[23:14] <mhall119> iconmedic, it's not a command, it's a line of text to put in your xorg.conf
[23:15] <mhall119> jarco, maybe, if it broke the Flash plugin
[23:15] <jarco> it didnt i think
[23:15] <oxmox_> sudo nano /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[23:15] <jarco> youtube works ...
[23:15] <mhall119> did you restart Firefox after the update?
[23:15] <mohdrafie> How do I extract files from the windows driver?
[23:15] <kaatil> hold a moment
[23:16] <mhall119> oh, so is it the Totem plugin not working?
[23:16] <jarco> seems like it
[23:16] <jarco> there where tomtum updates today
[23:16] <jarco> i niticed that
[23:16] <kaatil> yes mhall1119
[23:16] <truebosko> When I go to my computer and click on one of my NTFS drives from a windows partition, Ubuntu mounts it. How can I make this automatic on bootup?
[23:16] <mhall119> jarco, have you rebooted the whole computer?
[23:16] <oxmox_> hi i have a bit trouble with 8.10 on a usb stick i used the auto creater but if i start from usb i became the "could not find kernel image" error
[23:16] <alec> im interested in setting up a flash drive so i can boot to linux off a windows pc. can anyone point me in the right direction?
[23:17] <jarco> and yes i restarted ff
[23:17] <mhall119> kaatil, what kind of nvidia card do you have?
[23:17] <jarco> not complete computer
[23:17] <kaatil> let me check
[23:17] <n8tuser> truebosko-> man fstab
[23:17] <kaatil> 8600 gts, mhall119
[23:17] <zsquareplusc> alec if you can run the livecd, check out the system->settings menu. there is a USB disk creator
[23:17] <LinuxKeitaro> hi all
[23:17] <just1primate> howdy!
[23:18] <truebosko> n8tuser: thanks
[23:18] <LinuxKeitaro> usually when a new ubuntu comes out I'm able to upgrade via the update manager
[23:18] <LinuxKeitaro> doesn't seem to be the case with 8.10
[23:18] <mohdrafie> How do I extract files from the windows driver?
[23:18] <jonathon> what number vrsion was feisty? like hardy is 8.10 so what was feisty?
[23:18] <LinuxKeitaro> did something change?
[23:18] <mhall119> kaatil, the binary nVidia driver hasn't been updated to the new Xorg yet
[23:18] <tj83_> LinuxKeitaro, update-manager -d from the terminal then you can upgrade
[23:18] <zsquareplusc> apropos, usb boot with the provided tool. i just got a crc error... hardware failure or failure to prepare the stick correctly?
[23:18] <n8tuser> mohdrafie-> cabextract  if you dont have it, install the package
[23:18] <jarco> nvm guys i found it :D
[23:18] <kaatil> really? meh
[23:18] <alec> zsquareplusc: would that be the best way for me to run ubuntu with all my settings and mail without installing on a computer?
[23:18] <LinuxKeitaro> tj83_ is this a change from before?  I dont' remember ever doing that
[23:18] <kaatil> for 8600 gts, it is not updated?
[23:18] <mhall119> yeah, nVidia is slow putting it out
[23:19] <jarco> didn close ff completely after updates
[23:19] <kaatil> feh.
[23:19] <mhall119> it was in the 8.10 release notes
[23:19] <just1primate> Has anyone had ANY success with an ATI Radeon 9250? Seems like every time I try to install either the official ATI fglrx, or the included fglrx packages..it always slams me into the low graphics settings
[23:19] <zsquareplusc> LinuxKeitaro: you have to switch away from the LTS version
[23:19] <jarco> there was one running on desktop 3
[23:19] <jonathon> tj83 no one is answering lol
[23:19] <tj83_> LinuxKeitaro, not sure... i have only run 8.04 and 8.10
[23:19] <kaatil> oh well
[23:19] <zsquareplusc> !upgrade | LinuxKeitaro
[23:19] <LinuxKeitaro> zsquareplusc I figured as muchI figured
[23:19] <kaatil> how to revert xorg to old one?
[23:19] <LinuxKeitaro> I figured they'd be trying to keep people on LTS that want to
[23:19] <LinuxKeitaro> thanks
[23:19] <mhall119> not sure how to rever xorg
[23:20] <kaatil> mhmm
[23:20] <brad1> prince_jammys: remember me?
[23:20] <just1primate> kaatil, under /etc/X11 do you have an xorg.conf.(something)?
[23:20] <zsquareplusc> LinuxKeitaro: actually http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading descibes it much better
[23:20] <prince_jammys> brad1: how did it go?
[23:20] <brad1> not so well
[23:20] <prince_jammys> brad1: complete destruction?
[23:20] <zsquareplusc> who is the master of ubottu factoids here?
[23:20] <tj83_> kaatil, cd to /etc/X11/ then sudo cp the old file to the xorg.conf file.
[23:20] <brad1> well no ... just no improvement ... still getting the same errors no matter what i do
[23:21] <just1primate> Has anyone had ANY success with an ATI Radeon 9250? Seems like every time I try to install either the official ATI fglrx, or the included fglrx packages..it always slams me into the low graphics settings
[23:21] <prince_jammys> brad1: ah, too frustrating.
[23:21] <mhall119> kaatil, remove the binary driver, and reboot, should get X back
[23:21] <falconfox> is there an IRC program for ubuntu that will tile windows, so you can see multiple chat rooms at once?
[23:21] <AciD> hi
[23:22] <AciD> I'm using ubuntu 8.10 and noticed the new gnome-display-properties does not ask for a confirmation when you change resolution, how can you get that behavior back ?
[23:22] <kaatil> ok mhall119
[23:22] <kaatil> i hope so.
[23:22] <kaatil> brb
[23:22] <mhall119> if not, run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[23:22] <mhall119> should get the default Xorg settings back
[23:23] <just1primate> what I found odd about running dpkg-reconfigure, is it doesnt go through the monitor and card steps like it used to
[23:23] <Sertse> hi
[23:23] <falconfox> is there a IRC progrom similiar to mIRC that will allow you to tile chat windows, so you can watch more than 1 chat at a time?
[23:23] <mhall119> just1primate, I think that's because the default configuration is no configuration, Xorg configures itself when it starts up
[23:23] <node357> falconfox, check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[23:23] <FFEMTcJ> falconfox: you only need to ask once
[23:23] <node357> falconfox, I haven't used many of these, but maybe you can find one that does what you want
[23:24] <FFEMTcJ> irssi ftw
[23:24] <B1g0lCAQ> can anyone help a new ubuntu user?
[23:24] <blueskiesokie> xchat, pidgin
[23:24] <Sertse> depends
[23:24] <FFEMTcJ> !ask B1g0lCAQ
[23:24] <FFEMTcJ> !ask|B1g0lCAQ
[23:25] <B1g0lCAQ> i installed from an ISO on a seperate parition from vista, but i cant select to boot from it
[23:25] <Sertse> hi, I need a mininal install, than installed fluxbox. Whats the command to open it up from the console?
[23:25] <falconfox> node357: ok, but that doesn't answer my question, i know that there are IRC programs for linux, i am asking which support tiling
[23:25] <LinuxKeitaro> tiling?
[23:25] <FFEMTcJ> falconfox: he doesnt know.. try them out
[23:25] <mhall119> Serte, the command to run Fluxbox?
[23:25] <zsquareplusc> Sertse: if you dont have a log in manager such as gdb/xdm, try startx
[23:26] <B1g0lCAQ> the first time i tried it worked fine
[23:26] <the|Navigator> Having an issue with the savage display drivers
[23:26] <B1g0lCAQ> and i did nothing differently
[23:26] <fallore> My pidgin IM windows are no longer flashing when I receive a new IM. Does anyone know what caused this? Happened when I went from 8.04 to 8.10
[23:26] <the|Navigator> it keeps not being able to set my screen res and saying the vscan is too high, then saying there are no supported resolutions
[23:26] <quentusrex> What is a good virtual machine management system like VMWare for Ubuntu? I need to be able to run a few test enviroments on my desktop.
[23:27] <blueskiesokie> i use xchat, when not using pidgin
[23:27] <mhall119> fallore, new default behavior just changes the pidgin icon, there is a setting to change it back
[23:27] <B1g0lCAQ> !ask i cant boot into ubuntu
[23:27] <mhall119> quentusrex, virtualbox or qemu
[23:27] <zsquareplusc> quentusrex: i did not compare, but virtualbox runs fine here. vmware is available too as is qemu
[23:28] <fallore> mhall119: do you know where?
[23:28] <mhall119> both are available in the Ubuntu repos, fallore
[23:28] <mhall119> but I think the virtualbox in the repos is old
[23:28] <zsquareplusc> mhall119: you mix up threads ;-)
[23:28] <mhall119> sorry
[23:28] <B1g0lCAQ> i guess no one knows what to do...
[23:29] <fallore> mhall119: ubuntu repos?
[23:29] <Azro> B1g0lCAQ, what's the problem?
[23:29] <NotADJ> Is there an Ubuntu package for PHP netbeans?
[23:29] <mhall119> fallore, sorry, to change the pidgin blink, right-click the notification area icon, it's in the menu
[23:29] <zsquareplusc> B1g0lCAQ: is it booting windows? then you probably dont have grub installed. you need to install grub so that you can select between linux and windows
[23:29] <B1g0lCAQ> where do i get grub?
[23:30] <B1g0lCAQ> does it not come with ubuntu 8.10
[23:30] <Azro> Kitchen.
[23:30] <dublpaws> B1g0lCAQ: your vista drive might have priority in the bios
[23:30] <mhall119> B1g0lCAQ: it should, unless you told it not to install Grub during the install process
[23:30] <fallore> THANK YOU! mhall119 everything is perfect now
[23:30] <mhall119> no problem fallore
[23:30] <kaatil> mhall119 it seem didnt work
[23:30] <kaatil> still same error
[23:30] <dtom> can anyone point me in the right direction to update mono to 1.9.1 or newer in ubuntu desktop x64 8.04?
[23:30] <zsquareplusc> NotADJ: http://packages.ubuntu.org is a nice package search engine. or you could search with synaptic ion system->settings menu, or apt-cache search
[23:31] <fallore> mhall119: it's weird, sometims when you say my name it doesn't notify me in IRC, but when it's at the beginning it does
[23:31] <mhall119> kaatil, try a reboot, the driver may still be in use
[23:31] <NotADJ> zsquareplusc: :D
[23:31] <B1g0lCAQ> ok i did the install onto the partition, and it says restart
[23:31] <B1g0lCAQ> but it never goes to the part where its installing whats on the drive
[23:31] <nek1> hello
[23:31] <quentusrex1> can someone type a sentence with my username? I'm testing a new irc program and I'd like to see what it does when I'm sent a message.
[23:31] <NotADJ> Hi quentusrex1!
[23:31] <zsquareplusc> quentusrex1: off topic ;-)
[23:31] <FFEMTcJ> quentusrex1:
[23:31] <Azro> quentusrex1
[23:31] <dtom> hi quentusrex1
[23:31] <dublpaws> quentusrex1: #test
[23:31] <mhall119> fallore, I have no idea about that, my local-alias isn't my irc nick, so mine may be different
[23:31] <Azro> Hahaha.
[23:31] <quentusrex1> lol
[23:31] <quentusrex1> thanks
[23:31] <B1g0lCAQ> i never had an option to get anything called GRUB
[23:32] <Azro> Was it exciting?
[23:32] <quentusrex1> I've never used pidgen before.
[23:32] <fallore> mhall119: *shrug* i'll figure it out later
[23:32] <Azro> GRUB installs automatically as far as I'm aware.
[23:32] <dublpaws> B1g0lCAQ: does your machine boot directly into windows?
[23:32] <Azro> At least it did for me.
[23:32] <quentusrex1> I've always used x-chat
[23:32] <mhall119> pidgin rocks, but not so much for irc
[23:32] <B1g0lCAQ> yeah\
[23:32] <zsquareplusc> B1g0lCAQ: it should install grub automatically at the en of the install procedure. or did you use wubi?
[23:32] <kaatil> rebooting it at the moment
[23:32] <B1g0lCAQ> im not sure what wubi is
[23:32] <B1g0lCAQ> i installed it from an ISO within windows
[23:33] <B1g0lCAQ> with poweriso
[23:33] <zsquareplusc> B1g0lCAQ: an other install method. if you used the CD, then you did not use wubi
[23:33] <zsquareplusc> hm
[23:33] <dublpaws> B1g0lCAQ: when you boot you machine, what happens?
[23:33] <kaatil> each time there is newe xorg.. nvidia have to fix it or what?
[23:33] <B1g0lCAQ> it goes straight into vista
[23:33] <B1g0lCAQ> no option
[23:33] <kaatil> make me want to kick it hard. :(
[23:33] <vonderer> hi there. Not long ago I removed pulseaudio, but I had to reinstall it soon enough
[23:33] <B1g0lCAQ> when i installed 8.04 the first time a few weeks ago it gave me an option
[23:34] <mhall119> kaatil, did you apt-get remove the nvidia driver?
[23:34] <zsquareplusc> B1g0lCAQ: so you dont booted from the cd, you ran a programm on it?
[23:34] <djiezes> vonderer: why? i was planning on doing the same.
[23:34] <vonderer> after that sound became too quiet
[23:34] <B1g0lCAQ> im not sure i understand that. i installed it from an iso
[23:35] <B1g0lCAQ> i didnt burn a disk though
[23:35] <vonderer> but when I open alsamixer, there is only pulseaudio mixer settings
[23:35] <B1g0lCAQ> i just used poweriso
[23:35] <zsquareplusc> B1g0lCAQ: did it look like that: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#wubi ?
[23:35] <vonderer> how can I configure audiochannels to make sound louder?
[23:35] <markelhas> hi
[23:35] <B1g0lCAQ> yah
[23:36] <node357> B1g0lCAQ, you generally need a CD to install the system, someone correct me if I'm wrong
[23:36] <zsquareplusc> vonderer: do you seea loudspeeker symbol in the bar at the top of the screen? besides the clock usually
[23:36] <markelhas> how can i install ubuntu 8.10 without losing my user settings?
[23:36] <djiezes> vonderer: the gnome volume applet, loudspeaker near systemtray
[23:36] <mhall119> node357: it sounds like he used a program to mount the ISO as a CD under windows
[23:36] <zsquareplusc> markelhas: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading
[23:36] <mhall119> markelhas: back up your home directory, and restore after
[23:36] <node357> yeah mhall119, which only works until the system reboots
[23:36] <vonderer> djiezes: zsquareplusc, thanks. so I have to load gnome-panel after all? :(
[23:36]  * vonderer is in FluxBox
[23:37] <zsquareplusc> vonderer: no, are you using kubuntu?
[23:37] <mhall119> node357: but it would work long enough for Wubi to install it
[23:37] <zsquareplusc> ah
[23:37] <djiezes> vonderer: no idea, but that's how i do it.
[23:37] <zsquareplusc> vonderer: maybe alsamixer
[23:37] <onthefence9283> so firefox and nautilus are bugging out on me .....
[23:37] <B1g0lCAQ> so i need to use a CD?
[23:37] <node357> yep B1g0lCAQ, afraid so
[23:37] <nek1> I need help for my driver nvidia getforce 4400Ti
[23:37] <vonderer> zsquareplusc: alsamixer shows only pulseaudio controls: one volume bar and one mic bar
[23:37] <mhall119> B1g0lCAQ: if you installed using Wubi, it should have installed to a local file, no need for the CD anymore
[23:38] <mhall119> nek1: nVidia hasn't put out new binaries for Intrepid
[23:38] <zsquareplusc> vonderer: you can teach it to display more controls and other devices. it should say something in the help
[23:38] <B1g0lCAQ> ok, so am i missing a set then?
[23:38] <Bangers> Can someone point me in the right direction for automatically creating Ubuntu Virtual Machines as part of a Hudson Build process?
[23:38] <Mias> hi
[23:38] <mhall119> B1g0lCAQ: if you went through the install process without errors, it should have added an entry into the Windows boot loader to let you boot into Ubuntu
[23:39] <polaco> hola
[23:39] <mhall119> Vista may not be honoring that, I don't know if Wubi works well with Vista or not, I've only ever tried it on XP
[23:39] <Mias> what does "ubiquity"?
[23:39] <mhall119> ubiquity is the Ubuntu installer
[23:39] <node357> mhall119, it works with Vista
[23:39] <nek1> in version 8.04 it is working now in 8.10 it not support
[23:39] <B1g0lCAQ> it went through with no errors, but i dont get to choose
[23:39] <B1g0lCAQ> thats why im here :/
[23:40] <mhall119> nek1: 8.10 comes with a new version of Xorg, nVidia hasn't released binary drivers for the new version of xOrg
[23:40] <onthefence9283> firefox, and nautilus are bugging out on me, and my system monitor won't load to see what is making my CPU run at 99%, would a restart be a good idea? or could it possibly be bad? i'm working on a project and i can't lose my worked (i already saved, but just in case it corrupts)
[23:40] <mhall119> B1g0lCAQ: Vista probably has a control panel or something to modify the boot loader, you'll have to find that I think
[23:40] <joat1> i just installed ubuntu and im having problems with the network connections.  can someone help me get the wireless connection to work?
[23:40] <zsquareplusc> B1g0lCAQ: wubi runs ist as "windows application" so you'd find it in the start menu. if you booted the cd and used to normal installer. you'd reboot and get grub to choose what you boot
[23:41] <mhall119> zsquareplusc: Wubi used the Windows boot loader, not grub
[23:41] <ironmedic> hi guys, i cannot get my resolution higher than 800x600 on my intel i815 laptop.  windows xp runs 1024 for me no problem
[23:41]  * zsquareplusc has never actually tried wubi
[23:41] <ironmedic> i edited xorg.conf and it didnt work
[23:41] <VazdyK> i need an application that clears the RAM.
[23:41] <nek1> mhall119: Ok thanks
[23:41] <icqnumber_> is apt-get build-dep <package> equivalent to zypper si -d <package>?
[23:41] <mhall119> ironmedic: google "useEDID", sounds like xOrg may not recognize your monitor's capabilities
[23:41] <vonderer> zsquareplusc: got it, thanks. alsamixer -c 0 does the trick
[23:41] <noksious> Hello why i have this error when i want to install something .deb error: ( http://<IP_ADDRESS>/Screenshot.jpg )
[23:41] <Mias> mhall119: hmm, I clicked away the "installin, plz wait" window to look what "extended" would offer, then I clicked "install" again (pII 350) and nothing seems to happen since 15 mins
[23:41] <zsquareplusc> mhall119: and you get a selection at boot time? not in the start menu?
[23:42] <B1g0lCAQ> i used wubi from an ISO
[23:42] <noksious> how to fix this .deb error ( http://<IP_ADDRESS>/Screenshot.jpg )
[23:42] <mhall119> zsquareplusc: yes
[23:42] <jgoguen> noksious: that means you don't have everything installed to install the package
[23:42] <jgoguen> noksious: also please only ask once every so often...if someone knows the answer, they'll answer you
[23:42] <mhall119> Mias: sorry, what was your question again?
[23:42] <vonderer> djiezes: Saying «why? i was planning on doing the same.» you meant you were going to uninstall pulseaudio?
[23:42] <noksious> jgoguen, i see i need to install libssl<IP_ADDRESS>
[23:42] <noksious> how to install it ?
[23:42] <VazdyK> know anybody any application that clears RAM ?
[23:42] <noksious> ok sorry..
[23:43] <Flannel> VazdyK: define clear?
[23:43] <noksious> how to install libssl<IP_ADDRESS> on linux ubuntu 7.10 plz help me :( ?
[23:43] <jgoguen> noksious: no problem...the fastest way is to use the Terminal... go to Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[23:43] <Mias> mhall119: is it possible that clicking away this wait-window is harmful to the install process?
[23:43] <noksious> jgoguen, and ?
[23:43] <B1g0lCAQ> should i just try 8.04 again?
[23:43] <mhall119> noksious, what version of libssl is in the 7.10 repos?
[23:44] <VazdyK> i need an application that unload unneded libraries from RAM and defragment it
[23:44] <vonderer> djiezes: there were two reasons I did it: first, ALSA hanged on shutdown and second, pulseaudio works separately for each user
[23:44] <jgoguen> noksious: then enter this command - sudo aptitude install libssl
[23:44] <mhall119> Mias: I really don't know what you're asking, I'm trying to follow too many conversations
[23:44] <Commie_Cary> how do I recompile the kernal?
[23:44] <Mias> I dont see mke3fs in top but ubiquity + install + xorg use 100% cpu
[23:44] <harlekin> B1g0lCAQ, why you dont make a Boot cd or a live usb stick ?
[23:44] <DarkKnight> hey how do i change my desktop resolution
[23:44] <noksious> jgoguen,  done and ?
[23:44] <Mias> mhall119: old chatting-malaise ;}
[23:44] <mhall119> Mias, I'm not sure, are you running ubiquity from a liveCD?
[23:45] <jgoguen> noksious: press Enter, then put in your password when asked, and just push Enter at any other prompts
[23:45] <Mias> mhall119: yes I am
[23:45] <vonderer> djiezes: but I reinstalled pulse just after I heard high frequency whistling. My sound adapter is bad(
[23:45] <mhall119> Mias, what stage is it at?
[23:45] <DarkKnight> hey how do i change my desktop resolution
[23:45] <jgoguen> noksious: when that finishes, try installing Yahoo Messenger again
[23:45] <noksious> jgoguen, done dude ( Building tag database... Done      )
[23:45] <mhall119> DarkKnight System->Preferences->Screen Resolution
[23:45] <Mias> mhall119: "ready to install"
[23:46] <mhall119> did you get an error message or anything?
[23:46] <Mias> is the last window before this wait-thing
[23:46] <vonderer> btw, about pulseaudio. Was the problem with ALSA hanged on shutdown solved?
[23:46] <noksious> jgoguen, i tryed but didn't works :|
[23:46] <zsquareplusc> vonderer: that may be a feedback loop. check if you play back the output again or soething like that. mute unneeded channels
[23:46] <jgoguen> noksious: was it the command that failed?
[23:46] <Mias> mhall119: no but I clicked this wait--- away
[23:46] <B1g0lCAQ> what do i need for a boot cd
[23:46] <mhall119> Mias, are you re-sizing partitions?
[23:46] <Mias> mhall119: no, re-partitioning
[23:46] <noksious> jgoguen, no :|
[23:46] <harlekin> B1g0lCAQ, a empty Cd an the ISO file
[23:46] <zsquareplusc> B1g0lCAQ: burn the iso on an empty CD-R or R/W disc
[23:46] <vonderer> zsquareplusc: no, that was my soundcard and ALSA problems =/ I've tried everything before reinstalling pulse
[23:46] <noksious> let me paste

[23:53] <mhall119> if that doesn't work, I'm out of suggestions
[23:53] <kylepike> fallore, I havn't noticed it with audio. but when playing video and if I "browse" to the share vs mounting it via cmd line then it won't play except in totem (mplayer, vlc dont work).
